Whether you are sitting upright, relaxing in your favorite TV viewing position, or lying completely flat for sleeping, it’s like being on a cloud. A cloud that has built-in heat and massage settings to match your own personal comfort level. It even has a battery backup in case of a power cut. With Perfect Sleep Chair, there’s a perfect position for everybody, even those that prefer to lie flat but want the additional support that most mattresses(垫子) don’t provide. At the touch of a button, the Perfect Sleep Chair gently lifts you to an almost standing position so you can get back on your feet with ease. Some owners use this feature daily, while others use it when recovering from an illness. Time and time again, our customers tell us they are tired of having to replace their recliners due to quality issues. We hear you! That is why the Perfect Sleep Chair is handmade in the USA using quality hardwoods and only the highest quality upholster(垫衬物).

B There has been a battle raging in my living room — a deep-rooted standoff that began when I was a child of about nine. That is the age I was when my parents purchased a second-hand piano to support my continuing musical training. Some may characterize it as a love-hate relationship, even though I believe the bond between us is more than that. Of course, on the “hate” side there were plenty of frustrating hours spent practicing, the forced performances for relatives, the trimmed fingernails. And the responsibility I had to shoulder, as my family sacrificed a lot for me to have piano lessons, because I had talent. My teachers said so and, truthfully, my heart said so, too. But all too often it felt like a burden. There was also love on that piano bench. There were times when I could feel the music ring through me. I could feel it vibrate through my fingers. The connection between two people when performing a duet was beautiful. When my music landed on my audience it made me want to play forever. But my musical talent did not survive my teenage years. It was no competition for the freedom I sought and eventually fought for. When I had a home of my own, the piano mostly sat unloved or at least unused, feeling fingers on the keys only during Christmas and when my own children took piano lessons. I know every inch of this piano. I spent years of my life in front of this piano. Awaiting my free will to ripen enough to release me from lessons. Awaiting my life to begin. Awaiting my mother to leave the room so I could secretly read my book while practicing scales. It feels like I am giving away the family pet. So here I sit playing my last tune before the movers take the piano away and surprisingly there lies a growing desire for something else. It is time to clear the air to let in a different melody. Time to say, “Thank you for being part of my life,” take a bow and leave the stage… with one final note rising up alongside the dust in a sunbeam. 4. What does the underlined word in paragraph 1 mean? A. Conflict. B. Challenge. C. Relationship. D. Understanding. 5. Why did the author feel frustrated about playing piano? A.

D The author preferred reading to playing the piano. 7. What is the most suitable title for the passage? A. A Farewell to My Piano. B. Challenges of Playing the Piano. C. Love and Responsibility in Music. D. Reflection on My Musical Journey. C At the foot of an Icelandic volcano, a newly-opened plant is taking CO₂ from the air and turning it to rock. This technology is known as “direct air capture(捕捉)” or DAC. It’s a bit like “mining” the sky for CO₂—simple in principle, but very difficult to carry out. To do this, you need the right geography conditions. That is why Climeworks, a Swiss company, built the Orca plant in Iceland. There, fans draw air into big black containers where the filter(过滤器) catches CO₂. Once the filter is full, it is heated to around 100℃ to separate CO₂ with sufficient energy from volcanic activity. Next, the collected CO₂ is combined with water and pumped deep underground into rock formations. Within a few years, the CO₂ will turn into stone. However, exciting and promising as this technology is, it won’t save us from climate change on its own. While Orca, the largest plant of its kind in the world, can capture up to 4,000 tons of CO₂ per year, the yearly global emissions(排放) are around 33.4 billion tons of CO₂, so the plant can deal with 0.00001% of our yearly emissions. Besides, the process is expensive and requires large amounts of energy. Daniel Egger, the chief commercial officer at Climeworks, said that while his company is at an “industrial level”, it is not where it needs to be to make a difference in fighting climate change. But we have to learn to walk before we can run. Carbon storage(碳储存) is just arising as a technology. It won’t help us fix climate change yet, but it can be important down the line, if we have the right conditions for it. 8. What can we learn about DAC according to the text? A. It is the best way to fix climate change at present. B. It requires enough heat and energy to operate. C. It is highly developed in removing CO₂. D. It can be applied anywhere in the world. 9. Why are some data used in paragraph 3? A. To indicate the bright future of the technology. B. To provide the research results for the readers. C. To show the challenges DAC faces at present. D. To call for more plants like Orca to be set up. 10. What is the author’s attitude towards the technology? A. Unclear. B. Uninterested. C. Doubtful. D. Hopeful. 11. From which is the text probably taken? A. A science report. B. A company leaflet. C. A chemistry textbook. D. A social web page. D You probably know the feeling of having a hearty meal at a restaurant, full and satisfied, but only take a look at the dessert menu and you decide the cheesecake looks just irresistible. Why do you somehow make an exception for a sweet treat, since you are too full to have another bite? Thanks to a recent study, scientists now have a better understanding of the origins of this urge. Working with mice, researchers tried to set up a situation similar to the human experience described above. They started by offering a standard diet to mice who hadn’t eaten since the previous day. That “meal” period lasted for 90 minutes, and the mice ate until they couldn’t eat any more. Then it was time for a 30-minute “dessert” period. In the first round of the experiment, researchers offered mice extra regular food for dessert, and the mice ate just a little bit more. In the second round, during the “dessert” period, they offered a high-sugar feed to the mice for 30 minutes. The mice really went for the sugary feed, consuming six times more calories than in the first round. In the mice, researchers monitored the activity of neurons (神经元) that are associated with feelings of fullness. They found that when the mice were eating the high sugar diet, the neurons released a chemical which was related to pleasure sensors in their brain and caused a feeling of reward, making the mice keep eating. When the team blocked the release of the chemical, the mice stayed away from the sugar. The researchers found the same went for humans when scanning the brains of volunteers, who were fed sugar drinks. This led the scientists to conclude that the neuron action in the human brain drives the consumption of high-sugar foods. Researchers say the follow-up studies on this neural reward system could throw light on how sugar overconsumption may contribute to the development of obesity. 12. Why did the researchers carry out the study? A. To test new diets for mice B. To improve dessert quality. C. To help people eat healthily. D. To explain the urge for sweets. 13. What does Paragraph 2 tell us about the research? A. The process. B. The result C. The basis. D. The subject. 14. What may lead to humans’ sugar overconsumption? A. The feeling of being full. B. The blocking of certain neurons. C. The release of a chemical. D. The presence of pleasure sensors. 15. What is the best title for this passage? A. What Makes Mice Prefer Sugar B. Why There’s Always Room for Sugar C. How We Resist the Temptation of Sugar D. Whether Consuming Sugar Causes Obesity 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Bossy, dominant, controlling — have these labels ever come to mind when you think of others or yourself? Or have others used these terms to describe you? However, control isn’t purely negative.____16____ Its role in our lives is far more complicated. Let’s unpack it. ____17____ Air traffic controllers ensure planes’ safe navigation. Teachers who manage classes effectively create a thriving environment. Self-control, too, is a cornerstone (基石) of personal growth, helping us pursue long term goals. These all show how control can be a force for order and progress. But when control changes into a strong desire to be in charge all the time and make others do exactly what you want, many problems will start to appear. Some individuals use threats, or even force to impose (强制实行) their will. ____18____ If you recognize such behavior in others or experience it yourself, seeking support from trusted adults is crucial-they can help address the harm. Psychologists link the desire for control to underlying anxiety. When we feel uncertain or that we don’t know what to do in life, the need to manage every little thing becomes a way to deal with our feelings. And gradually, it becomes a negative cycle which gains strength.____19____ Life’s changes often spark control urges. Physical or emotional changes, family conflicts, or the loss of a loved one trigger (引发) feelings of powerlessness. Transitions like starting a new school or moving to a different city can also disrupt (扰乱) our sense of stability. ____20____ It’s a natural response to life’s unpredictability. A. This can be a form of abuse. B. Control has clear positive applications. C. Uncertainty weakens our self-confidence. D. The sense of loss can also explain the reason. E. In such moments, the need to regain control becomes intense. F. Actually, control doesn’t fit neatly into “good” or “bad” boxes. G. If left unchecked, it can damage relationships and generate stress. 第二部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was in college at the University of Minnesota, one of my senior-year classes involved putting together a website using Wix. In this way we can____21____some of the things we had worked on during our academic years and____22____ set us up for an easier time finding ____23____ afterward. I had never____24____ this before, which to be honest probably put me at a____25____ in comparison to my classmates. I had been____26____ in the sports media office for about two and a half years at that point. But I never thought to try and____27____everything I had worked on. Meanwhile, some of my friends had always been doing this,____28____with flashy designs and music, ready to hand to a potential employer. Needless to say, my website, while____29____in form given how long I spent on the design lacked much function or substance. _____30_____, I pulled every bit of work I still had sitting around on my computer and pretty much tried every_____31_____ hoping that my website would at least be _____32_____ and wouldn’t pull my legs in the eyes of the hiring managers. Luckily, I ended up getting an A on the_____33_____. Far more valuable than what it added to my_____34_____, though, was the value of the push it gave me to actually_____35_____caring about and recording the work that I was doing. 21 A. grasp B. discover C. undergo D. show 22. A. patiently B. instantly C. hopefully D. continuously 23. A. work B. belief C. class D. reward 24. A. explained B. considered C. claimed D. witnessed 25. A. distance B. risk C. disadvantage D. loss 26. A. perceived B. employed C. recognized D. tolerated 27. A. record B. design C. change D. detect 28. A. accurate B. unfinished C. complex D. complete 29. A. simple B. amusing C. great D. hopeless 30. A. Gradually B. Obviously C. Constantly D. Desperately 31.

A. grade B. edition C. reality D. school 35. A. regret B. admit C. recall D. start 第二节(共10小题;每小题1. 5分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 For over a thousand years, the ancient Silk Road connected China with Central Asia and beyond, so named because silk was one of the prime goods exported. Today, for designer Fan Yanyan, silk has once again become a medium of cross-border connection. ____36____ (inspire) by the mural art in Dunhuang, Gansu province, a key centre along the ancient trade route, she has been designing silk works ____37____ facilitate cultural exchanges between China and Central Asia.

In summer, my brother Harry and I would run through a stand of oak trees to skip stones there. The pond wore a collar of black mud. It was not a place for swimming. In late summer, the pond would be covered by a green and bubbly scum(起泡的浮渣). Sometimes a strong, unpleasant smell rose from it. We stayed away. When winter came, the pond was once again an inviting place. One day when ice covered it, Harry said to me, “Try walking across.” The ice looked solid. No water showed through it, but I hesitated. “Go ahead.” Harry urged. “Try it. You’re lighter than I am. If the ice holds, we can run and slide carefully on it. It’ll be fun.” I wanted to please Harry, and I thought about the fun of a long slide on the ice. I began to slide across the pond. In the middle of the pond, the ice gave way with a sudden crack(裂缝)! I stretched out(伸展) my arms. The next thing I knew I was hanging on to the edge of a hole in the ice by arms outstretched on the ice. From my shoulders down I hung in icy water. I thought of the bottom of the pond. I knew it would be black and awful down there, full of mud and maybe rotting creatures. I tried to climb out of the hole, but when I got a knee on the ice, it broke like window glass. Again and again I tried to get out. Again and again the ice broke into pieces. The hole widened. I was wearing a coat of heavy material. As it became completely wet, it dragged me down. I was tired of the struggle and rested with my arms stretched out on the ice. I looked at Harry on shore. He seemed rooted to the spot. “I can’t get out!” I screamed when I caught some breath. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph1: Harry turned and ran from the pond. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph2: The moment I crashed through the kitchen door, sobbing, mum rushed over. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年第一学期 化州市普通高中二年级期中教学质量监测 英语试卷 本试卷满分130分,考试用时120分钟。 注意事项: 1.答题前,先将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上,并将准考证号条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.选择题的作答:每小题选出答案后,用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑,写在试卷、草稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 3.稿纸和答题卡上的非答题区域均无效。 4.考试结束后,请将本试卷和答题卡一并上交。 第一部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2. 5分,满分37. 5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A The Perfect Sleep Chair is designed to be the most comfortable recliner chair.

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了自己和一架钢琴之间的爱恨情仇,决定要把它处理掉时的心情非常复杂。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。本句是文章主题句。根据第二段中“Some may characterize it as a love-hate relationship, even though I believe the bond between us is more than that. Of course, on the “hate” side there were plenty of frustrating hours spent practicing, the forced performances for relatives, the trimmed fingernails.(有些人可能会把它描述为爱恨情仇,尽管我相信我们之间的关系不止于此。当然,在“讨厌”的一面,有很多令人沮丧的练习时间,强迫为亲戚表演,修剪指甲)”及第三段中“There was also love on that piano bench.(钢琴凳上也有爱)”可知,作者对这架二手钢琴的情感是矛盾的,既有爱又有恨,由此可知划线词词义为“冲突、矛盾”,故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Of course, on the ‘hate’ side there were plenty of frustrating hours spent practicing, the forced performances for relatives, the trimmed fingernails. And the responsibility I had to shoulder, as my family sacrificed a lot for me to have piano lessons, because I had talent. My teachers said so and, truthfully, my heart said so, too. But all too often it felt like a burden.(当然,在“讨厌”的一面,有很多令人沮丧的练习时间,强迫为亲戚表演,修剪指甲。还有我必须承担的责任,我的家人为了我上钢琴课牺牲了很多,因为我有天赋。我的老师是这么说的,说实话,我的内心也是这么说的。但很多时候,这感觉像是一种负担)”可知,作者是因为有了这架钢琴,多了很多责任,觉得很有负担,所以对此感到沮丧。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“I know every inch of this piano. I spent years of my life in front of this piano. Awaiting my free will to ripen enough to release me from lessons. Awaiting my life to begin. Awaiting my mother to leave the room so I could secretly read my book while practicing scales.(我对这架钢琴了如指掌。我在这架钢琴前度过了那么多年。等待我的自由意志成熟到足以让我从教训中解脱出来。等待我的生活开始。等着妈妈离开房间,这样我就可以一边练音阶一边偷偷看书)”可知,作者认为练钢琴占据了自己很多时间,剥夺了自己做自己喜欢做的事情的自由。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“It feels like I am giving away the family pet. So here I sit playing my last tune before the movers take the piano away and surprisingly there lies a growing desire for something else.(感觉就像我把家里的宠物送人了。所以,在搬家公司把钢琴搬走之前,我坐在这里弹奏最后一首曲子,令人惊讶的是,我越来越想要别的东西)”可知,作者回顾了多年来对这架钢琴的复杂情感,最后表示要把钢琴处理掉了。所以A Farewell to My Piano.最适合作题目,farewell意为“告别,再见”。故选A项。 C At the foot of an Icelandic volcano, a newly-opened plant is taking CO₂ from the air and turning it to rock. This technology is known as “direct air capture(捕捉)” or DAC. It’s a bit like “mining” the sky for CO₂—simple in principle, but very difficult to carry out. To do this, you need the right geography conditions. That is why Climeworks, a Swiss company, built the Orca plant in Iceland. There, fans draw air into big black containers where the filter(过滤器) catches CO₂. Once the filter is full, it is heated to around 100℃ to separate CO₂ with sufficient energy from volcanic activity. Next, the collected CO₂ is combined with water and pumped deep underground into rock formations. Within a few years, the CO₂ will turn into stone. However, exciting and promising as this technology is, it won’t save us from climate change on its own. While Orca, the largest plant of its kind in the world, can capture up to 4,000 tons of CO₂ per year, the yearly global emissions(排放) are around 33.4 billion tons of CO₂, so the plant can deal with 0.00001% of our yearly emissions. Besides, the process is expensive and requires large amounts of energy. Daniel Egger, the chief commercial officer at Climeworks, said that while his company is at an “industrial level”, it is not where it needs to be to make a difference in fighting climate change. But we have to learn to walk before we can run. Carbon storage(碳储存) is just arising as a technology. It won’t help us fix climate change yet, but it can be important down the line, if we have the right conditions for it. 8. What can we learn about DAC according to the text? A. It is the best way to fix climate change at present. B. It requires enough heat and energy to operate. C. It is highly developed in removing CO₂. D. It can be applied anywhere in the world. 9. Why are some data used in paragraph 3? A. To indicate the bright future of the technology. B. To provide the research results for the readers. C. To show the challenges DAC faces at present. D To call for more plants like Orca to be set up. 10. What is the author’s attitude towards the technology? A. Unclear. B. Uninterested. C. Doubtful. D. Hopeful. 11. From which is the text probably taken? A. A science report. B. A company leaflet. C. A chemistry textbook. D. A social web page. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项新的碳存储技术——直接空气捕获技术(DAC),该技术能够吸入空气,并在高能支持下分离出二氧化碳,经过时间沉淀将其转换成岩石。文章分析了其工作原理,面临的挑战,以及前景。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“There, fans draw air into big black containers where the filter catches CO₂. Once the filter is full, it is heated to around 100℃ to separate CO₂ with sufficient energy from volcanic activity.(在那里,风扇将空气吸入黑色大容器,过滤器在那里捕捉CO₂。一旦过滤器充满,它就会被加热到100℃左右,以足够的能量从火山活动中分离出CO₂。)”以及文章第三段内容“Besides, the process is expensive and requires large amounts of energy.( 此外,这个过程是昂贵的,需要大量的能源。)”可知,DAC将CO₂转化成岩石的过程中需要吸入大量空气并在滤芯加满之后加热到100℃,才能将CO₂分离出来,同时需要大量的能源支持。因此可知,DAC技术需要足够的热量和能量才能运转。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容“While Orca, the largest plant of its kind in the world, can capture up to 4000 tons of CO₂ per year, the yearly global emissions are around 33.4 billion tons of CO₂, so the plant can deal with 0.00001% of our yearly emissions. (世界上最大的工厂——Orca每年最多能捕获4000吨的CO₂,但全球每年的CO₂排放量约为334亿吨,因此该工厂只能处理我们每年排放的0.00001%。)”列举的数字可知,全球每年的CO₂排放量约为334亿吨,该工厂只能处理每年排放的0.00001%,能帮助处理的微乎其微,成本高,耗源大,由此可推知,这些数字表明了DAC目前面临的挑战。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章末尾段内容“Carbon storage is just arising as a technology. It won't help us fix climate change yet, but it can be important down the line, if we have the right conditions for it.(碳储存技术刚刚兴起。它还不能帮助我们解决气候变化问题,但如果我们有合适的条件,它在未来可能很重要。)”可知,在作者看来,虽然碳存储技术刚刚兴起,还不能帮助解决气候问题,但是在将来合适条件下,碳存储技术还是很重要的,由此可推知,对于该技术,作者是抱有希望的。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通过阅读文章内容,可知文章首段内容“At the foot of an Icelandic volcano, a newly-opened plant is taking CO₂ from the air and turning it to rock. This technology is known as ‘direct air capture’ or DAC.(在冰岛的一座火山脚下,一家新开业的工厂正在从空气中提取CO₂,并将其变成岩石。这种技术被称为“直接空气捕获(DAC)”。)”揭示了文章的中心话题,即,文章主要围绕一项新技术“直接空气捕获(DAC)”为话题,讲述了该技术的原理,面临的挑战,以及前景。由此可推知,文章应是摘自科学新闻报道。故选A项。 D You probably know the feeling of having a hearty meal at a restaurant, full and satisfied, but only take a look at the dessert menu and you decide the cheesecake looks just irresistible. Why do you somehow make an exception for a sweet treat, since you are too full to have another bite? Thanks to a recent study, scientists now have a better understanding of the origins of this urge. Working with mice, researchers tried to set up a situation similar to the human experience described above. They started by offering a standard diet to mice who hadn’t eaten since the previous day. That “meal” period lasted for 90 minutes, and the mice ate until they couldn’t eat any more. Then it was time for a 30-minute “dessert” period. In the first round of the experiment, researchers offered mice extra regular food for dessert, and the mice ate just a little bit more. In the second round, during the “dessert” period, they offered a high-sugar feed to the mice for 30 minutes. The mice really went for the sugary feed, consuming six times more calories than in the first round. In the mice, researchers monitored the activity of neurons (神经元) that are associated with feelings of fullness. They found that when the mice were eating the high sugar diet, the neurons released a chemical which was related to pleasure sensors in their brain and caused a feeling of reward, making the mice keep eating. When the team blocked the release of the chemical, the mice stayed away from the sugar. The researchers found the same went for humans when scanning the brains of volunteers, who were fed sugar drinks. This led the scientists to conclude that the neuron action in the human brain drives the consumption of high-sugar foods. Researchers say the follow-up studies on this neural reward system could throw light on how sugar overconsumption may contribute to the development of obesity. 12. Why did the researchers carry out the study? A. To test new diets for mice B. To improve dessert quality. C. To help people eat healthily. D. To explain the urge for sweets. 13. What does Paragraph 2 tell us about the research? A. The process. B. The result C. The basis. D. The subject. 14. What may lead to humans’ sugar overconsumption? A. The feeling of being full. B. The blocking of certain neurons. C. The release of a chemical. D. The presence of pleasure sensors. 15. What is the best title for this passage? A. What Makes Mice Prefer Sugar B. Why There’s Always Room for Sugar C. How We Resist the Temptation of Sugar D. Whether Consuming Sugar Causes Obesity 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究解释人饱餐后仍想吃甜食的原因:实验显示高糖食物激活相关神经元释放化学物质,带来愉悦奖励,驱动继续进食,后续研究或助于了解肥胖。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Why do you somehow make an exception for a sweet treat, since you are too full to have another bite? Thanks to a recent study, scientists now have a better understanding of the origins of this urge.(为什么你会例外地给自己来一份甜食呢?毕竟你已经吃得太饱了,根本吃不下第二口了。多亏了最近的一项研究,科学家们现在对这种欲望的起源有了更深入的了解)”可知,研究人员开展这项研究是为了解释对甜食的渴望。故选D。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Working with mice, researchers tried to set up a situation similar to the human experience described above. They started by offering a standard diet to mice who hadn’t eaten since the previous day. That “meal” period lasted for 90 minutes, and the mice ate until they couldn’t eat any more. Then it was time for a 30-minute “dessert” period. In the first round of the experiment, researchers offered mice extra regular food for dessert, and the mice ate just a little bit more. In the second round, during the “dessert” period, they offered a high-sugar feed to the mice for 30 minutes. The mice really went for the sugary feed, consuming six times more calories than in the first round.(研究人员以老鼠为实验对象,试图营造出与上述人类经历相似的情境。他们首先给那些自前一天起就未进食的老鼠提供常规食物。这一“进食”阶段持续了90分钟,老鼠会一直进食直到再也吃不下为止。接下来是30分钟的“甜点”阶段。在第一轮实验中,研究人员为老鼠提供了额外的常规食物作为“甜点”,老鼠的进食量只是比第一轮多了一点点。在第二轮实验中,在“甜点”阶段,他们给老鼠提供了一种高糖食物,持续30分钟。老鼠真的对这种高糖食物情有独钟,摄入的热量是第一轮的六倍)”可知,第二段向我们介绍了这项研究的研究过程。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They found that when the mice were eating the high sugar diet, the neurons released a chemical which was related to pleasure sensors in their brain and caused a feeling of reward, making the mice keep eating. When the team blocked the release of the chemical, the mice stayed away from the sugar. The researchers found the same went for humans when scanning the brains of volunteers, who were fed sugar drinks. This led the scientists to conclude that the neuron action in the human brain drives the consumption of high-sugar foods.(他们发现,当老鼠食用高糖饮食时,其神经元会释放一种与大脑中的愉悦感受器相关的化学物质,从而引发一种奖赏感,使老鼠持续进食。当研究团队阻止这种化学物质的释放时,老鼠便不再靠近糖源。当研究人员对接受含糖饮料的志愿者的大脑进行扫描时,也发现了同样的情况。这使得科学家们得出结论:人类大脑中的神经元活动驱动着对高糖食物的摄入)”可知,导致人类过度摄入糖分的原因可能是一种化学物质的释放。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Why do you somehow make an exception for a sweet treat, since you are too full to have another bite? Thanks to a recent study, scientists now have a better understanding of the origins of this urge.(为什么你会例外地给自己来一份甜食呢?毕竟你已经吃得太饱了,根本吃不下第二口了。多亏了最近的一项研究,科学家们现在对这种欲望的起源有了更深入的了解)”结合文章主要说明了研究解释人饱餐后仍想吃甜食的原因:实验显示高糖食物激活相关神经元释放化学物质,带来愉悦奖励,驱动继续进食,后续研究或助于了解肥胖。可知,B选项“为什么总有吃糖的余地?”最符合文章标题。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Bossy, dominant, controlling — have these labels ever come to mind when you think of others or yourself? Or have others used these terms to describe you? However, control isn’t purely negative.____16____ Its role in our lives is far more complicated. Let’s unpack it. ____17____ Air traffic controllers ensure planes’ safe navigation. Teachers who manage classes effectively create a thriving environment. Self-control, too, is a cornerstone (基石) of personal growth, helping us pursue long term goals. These all show how control can be a force for order and progress. But when control changes into a strong desire to be in charge all the time and make others do exactly what you want, many problems will start to appear. Some individuals use threats, or even force to impose (强制实行) their will. ____18____ If you recognize such behavior in others or experience it yourself, seeking support from trusted adults is crucial-they can help address the harm. Psychologists link the desire for control to underlying anxiety. When we feel uncertain or that we don’t know what to do in life, the need to manage every little thing becomes a way to deal with our feelings. And gradually, it becomes a negative cycle which gains strength.____19____ Life’s changes often spark control urges. Physical or emotional changes, family conflicts, or the loss of a loved one trigger (引发) feelings of powerlessness. Transitions like starting a new school or moving to a different city can also disrupt (扰乱) our sense of stability. ____20____ It’s a natural response to life’s unpredictability. A. This can be a form of abuse. B. Control has clear positive applications. C. Uncertainty weakens our self-confidence. D. The sense of loss can also explain the reason. E. In such moments, the need to regain control becomes intense. F. Actually, control doesn’t fit neatly into “good” or “bad” boxes. G. If left unchecked, it can damage relationships and generate stress. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. A 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨控制并非纯负面,分析其正负作用及产生控制欲的原因。 【16题详解】 上文“However, control isn’t purely negative. (然而,控制并不完全是负面的)”及下文“ Its role in our lives is far more complicated. (它在我们生活中的作用要复杂得多)”说明控制的作用很复杂,空处承上启下,选项F中的“doesn’t fit neatly into “good” or “bad” boxes”与下文中的“far more complicated”相呼应。所以F选项“实际上,控制不能简单地归入“好”或“坏”的范畴。”,符合语境。故选F。 【17题详解】 下文“These all show how control can be a force for order and progress. (这些都表明,控制可以成为秩序与进步的推动力)”说明控制是有积极作用的,空处引出下文,选项B中的“positive”与下文中的“a force for order and progress”相呼应。所以B选项“控制有明显的积极应用”,符合语境。故选B。 【18题详解】 上文“Some individuals use threats, or even force to impose (强制实行) their will. (有些人会使用威胁,甚至暴力来强行推行自己的意志)”及下文“If you recognize such behavior in others or experience it yourself, seeking support from trusted adults is crucial - they can help address the harm. (如果你在他人的行为中识别出这种表现,或自己正经历这种情况,向可信赖的成年人寻求帮助至关重要——他们可以帮助应对由此造成的伤害)”说明控制欲失控,是一种虐待,经历的人应该向别人寻求帮助,空处承上启下,选项A中的“abuse”与下文中的“such behavior”相呼应。所以A选项“这可能是一种形式的虐待。”,符合语境。故选A。 【19题详解】 上文“When we feel uncertain or that we don’t know what to do in life, the need to manage every little thing becomes a way to deal with our feelings. And gradually, it becomes a negative cycle which gains strength. (当我们感到不确定,或对生活感到迷茫时,掌控每一个细节的需求就成了应对情绪的一种方式。久而久之,这会形成一个不断强化的负面循环)”说明我们不能放任这种负面情绪不管,选项G中的“it”与上文中的“the need to manage every little thing”相呼应。所以G选项“如果不加以控制,它可能会破坏人际关系并引发压力”,符合语境。故选G。 【20题详解】 上文“Life’s changes often spark control urges. Physical or emotional changes, family conflicts, or the loss of a loved one trigger (引发) feelings of powerlessness. Transitions like starting a new school or moving to a different city can also disrupt (扰乱) our sense of stability. (生活中的变化常常会激起控制的需求。身体或情绪上的变化、家庭冲突,或失去所爱之人,都会引发无力感。像开始上新学校或搬到不同城市这样的转变,也会扰乱我们的稳定感)”及下文“It’s a natural response to life’s unpredictability. (这是对生活不可预测性的一种自然反应)”说明生活中的变化常常会让控制的需求增多,空处承上启下,选项E中的“In such moments”与上文中的“Physical or emotional changes, family conflicts, or the loss of a loved one”及“Transitions”相呼应。所以E选项“在这样的时刻,重新掌控的需求会变得强烈”,符合语境。故选E。 第二部分 语言运用(共两节,满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was in college at the University of Minnesota, one of my senior-year classes involved putting together a website using Wix.

Inspired 37. that##which 38. was held 39. hers 40. specially 41. an 42. as 43. to present 44. original 45. better 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,主要讲述了设计师范燕燕(Fan Yanyan)如何以丝绸为媒介,促进中国与中亚之间的文化交流。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意:她的灵感来自古代贸易路线上的重要中心甘肃省敦煌的壁画艺术,她一直在设计丝绸作品,促进中国和中亚之间的文化交流。句中谓语是has been designing,空格处用非谓语动词,由by可知,空格处用过去分词表被动,作状语,位于句首,首字母大写。故填Inspired。 【37题详解】 考查定语从句。句意:她的灵感来自古代贸易路线上的重要中心甘肃省敦煌的壁画艺术,她一直在设计丝绸作品,促进中国和中亚之间的文化交流。空格处引导的是限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词silk works是物,因此用关系代词that/which引导定语从句。故填that/which。 【38题详解】 考查时态,被动语态和主谓一致。句意:2023年,中国—中亚峰会在陕西西安举行,她多幅作品被选为官方礼品。主语“中国—中亚峰会”是被举办,且描述过去的事情,因此句子用一般过去时的被动语态,主语the China-Central Asia Summit是单数,因此空格处是was held。故填was held。 【39题详解】 考查名词性物主代词。句意:2023年,中国—中亚峰会在陕西西安举行,她的多幅作品被选为官方礼品。根据语境可知,句子表示“她的多幅作品被选为官方礼品”,空格处用名词性物主代词hers表示“她的”,作宾语。故填hers。 【40题详解】 考查副词。句意:范还带领她的团队为峰会特别设计了丝巾,灵感来自中亚元素,比如吉尔吉斯斯坦常见的阿依古丽花,以及通过丝绸之路传入中国的石榴花。空格处用副词specially修饰动词design,specially意为“特别地,专门地”。故填specially。 【41题详解】 考查冠词。句意:同年10月,她在吉尔吉斯斯坦首都比什凯克的吉尔吉斯共和国国家历史博物馆举办了以中国丝绸艺术为主题的展览。exhibition是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,前面要加不定冠词,exhibition发音以元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an。故填an。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意:她自己的丝绸艺术中心也作为交流的平台。serve as是固定短语,意为“作为”,因此空格处是介词as。故填as。 【43题详解】 考查不定式。句意:范说:“我用丝绸作为媒介,通过原创作品来呈现和表达中国传统文化和丝绸之路文化,为它们注入当代意义。”use sth.to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“用某物做某事”,用不定式作目的状语。故填to present。 【44题详解】 考查形容词。句意:范说:“我用丝绸作为媒介,通过原创作品来呈现和表达中国传统文化和丝绸之路文化,为它们注入当代意义。”空格处用形容词作定语,修饰名词creations,origin是形容词是original,意为“原创的”,故填original。 【45题详解】 考查比较级。句意:通过以独特的审美和态度讲述中国故事,我希望世界能更好地理解和欣赏我们的传统文化。根据语境可知,表示“更好地理解和欣赏我们的传统文化”,空格处用副词 well的比较级better修饰动词understand and appreciate,作状语,意为“更好地”。故填better。 第三部分 基础知识考查(共两节,满分10分) 第一节 单词填空(共10小题,每小题0. 5分,满分5分) 根据中文提示和首字母填空,或根据括号内同根词填空。请将完整的单词的正确形式写在答题卡对应的答题区域。 46.

In summer, my brother Harry and I would run through a stand of oak trees to skip stones there. The pond wore a collar of black mud. It was not a place for swimming. In late summer, the pond would be covered by a green and bubbly scum(起泡的浮渣). Sometimes a strong, unpleasant smell rose from it. We stayed away. When winter came, the pond was once again an inviting place. One day when ice covered it, Harry said to me, “Try walking across.” The ice looked solid. No water showed through it, but I hesitated. “Go ahead.” Harry urged. “Try it. You’re lighter than I am. If the ice holds, we can run and slide carefully on it. It’ll be fun.” I wanted to please Harry, and I thought about the fun of a long slide on the ice. I began to slide across the pond. In the middle of the pond the ice gave way with a sudden crack(裂缝)! I stretched out(伸展) my arms. The next thing I knew I was hanging on to the edge of a hole in the ice by arms outstretched on the ice. From my shoulders down I hung in icy water. I thought of the bottom of the pond. I knew it would be black and awful down there, full of mud and maybe rotting creatures. I tried to climb out of the hole, but when I got a knee on the ice, it broke like window glass. Again and again I tried to get out. Again and again the ice broke into pieces. The hole widened. I was wearing a coat of heavy material. As it became completely wet, it dragged me down. I was tired of the struggle and rested with my arms stretched out on the ice. I looked at Harry on shore. He seemed rooted to the spot. “I can’t get out!” I screamed when I caught some breath. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150左右: 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph1: Harry turned and ran from the pond. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph2: The moment I crashed through the kitchen door sobbing, mum rushed over. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】He turned and ran from the pond. Staring at his familiar figure out of sight, I wondered:“Is he running for help, or is he running away and leaving me sliding to the bottom? ” After what seemed to be centuries of waiting, I was on the edge of collapse. Suddenly, Harry came back with a branch,which was large, black, and v-shaped. He pushed the branch toward me. I grabbed it immediately and was eventually dragged out of the icy water by Harry. What a narrow escape! We stumbled home, with my clothes dripping water. The moment I crashed through the kitchen door, sobbing, mum rushed over. She helped me take off my coat, and gave me a quick bath, then passed me a cup of milk to warm me up.I tearfully complained to her about all that had happened and Harry was blamed for getting me involved into such a trouble. His head drooping, Harry made an apology to me. I was comforted and relieved, but in fact, the pond was still attractive to young Harry and me, especially when winter came again. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者和弟弟Harry冬天在结冰的池塘玩耍,并在Harry的怂恿下在冰面上奔跑和滑行。但池塘中央的冰突然裂开,作者掉进了冰冷的水中,经过一番挣扎也无法爬出。Harry离开很久后终于返回,用找来的树枝救出了作者。 【详解】1.段落续写: ①由第一段首句内容“他转身从池塘边跑了出去。” 可知,第一段可描写作者等待Harry回来营救自己时内心想法和漫长过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“我哭着冲进厨房门的那一刻,妈妈跑了过来。” 可知,第二段可描写作者获救后回家向妈妈哭诉以及感想。 2.续写线索:作者内心想法——作者获救过程——作者的哭诉——作者的感想 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.抓住:grab/ catch/ grasp ②.被从冰水中拉出:was dragged out of the icy water/ was pulled out of the icy water 情绪类 ①.欣慰:comforted and relieved/ reassured 【点睛】[高分句型1].
