Poetry offers readers a different way of experiencing the written word. What you need to know ※ The oldest known long poem is The Epic of Gilgamesh, which was written about 4,000 years ago. ※ Poems often have emotional themes and use rhythm, rhyme and line breaks to convey their meaning. ※ Studies show that reading, watching or listening to poetry can improve well-being, empathy and learning. ※ In September, the Library of Congress named Arthur Sze the next US Poet Laureate (桂冠诗人), a position that fosters appreciation for poetry in the nation. There are many different forms of poetry, such as 14-line rhyming sonnets (十四行诗), three-line haikus (俳句) with exactly 17 syllables (音节), long and complicated odes (赋), and limericks that make you laugh out loud. William Shakespeare wrote sonnets about love, while Emily Dickinson wrote short lyric poems about life, death and domestic life. Epic poems, like Beowulf, tell tales of heroes and monsters. Many of Maya Angelou’s poems addressed themes of resilience (恢复力) and social justice, while Amanda Gorman writes about hope and change. There’s a poem for everyone, and some people say poetry is superior to longer works. Are poems better than books? YES Three reasons poems are better than books 1. Poems can be short and sweet, letting you read something beautiful and meaningful in a few minutes. 2. Whether it’s song lyrics, raps or short verses, it’s fun to memorize poetry and share it with friends. 3. One collection of poems can take you on a journey through a wide variety of themes. NO Three reasons poems are not better than books 1. You can immerse yourself in a book for days, weeks or months. Poems are usually too short for that. 2. When you read a book, you go on a meaningful journey with the characters and step into their world. 3. Poems can be open-ended and hard to get, while books have a satisfying ending. What do you think? Now that you’ve read a bit more about this issue, visit kids.junior.com/polls so you can vote in our debate. Vote YES if you think poems are better than books or NO if you don’t. We’ll publish the results next week. 21. What benefits does poetry bring to us? A. Singing in rhythm. B. Promoting personal growth. C. Writing long poems. D. Securing a position in the library. 22. Why does the writer mention Shakespeare, Dickinson, Angelou and Gorman? A. To prove the popularity of sonnets. B. To interpret the functions of poems. C. To show the variety of poetic types. D. To explain the theme of epic poems. 23. What makes people prefer books to poems? A. Open ending. B. Different themes. C. Deep reading. D. Meaningful characters. B When visitors walk toward the Peru Amateur (业余的) Circus, the show begins long before they reach their seats. Clowns greet families with silly jokes and rainbow-colored suckers (彩虹色棒棒糖). The smell of popcorn drifts through the air, trumpets (喇叭) sound, and children taste cotton candy that melts on the tongue. For the 11,000 residents of Peru, these sights, sounds and flavors are almost routine — because here, the circus is home. Peru’s love affair with the big top started more than a century ago. Three rail lines met in the small city, so famous traveling circuses such as Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey chose Peru as their winter headquarters. Elephants, zebras and hundreds of performers spent the off-season in town. When railroads later changed and the last circus car rolled away during World War II, many artists stayed, raising children who learned to juggle (玩杂耍), tumble (翻跟头) and fly on the swing. To keep the tradition alive, local schoolchildren began staging amateur shows on the courthouse lawn. Volunteers saved money for years, and in 1998, an old lumberyard became the Peru Circus Center Arena, a permanent, tent-shaped building one block from the tracks. Every July, during “City Circus Days,” 200 young performers present the skills they have practiced since February. About 400 adults sell tickets, sew costumes, build rigs, and coach the acts. No one is paid; everyone is proud. Debra Jo Myers, who once flew on the swing as a teenager, now watches from the stands. “The circus saved me,” she says. The year her parents divorced (离婚), her father was arrested and her grandfather died, practice every afternoon was the one place she felt safe. Today, she sees the same change in others: children who arrive with troubled hearts leave with strong bodies and loyal friends. Star aerialist Kevin Nord, a recent high-school graduate, is studying engineering at Purdue University, but each summer he returns to the ring. He knows that the classmates who catch him 30 feet in the air are also the people who help him survive physics exams and life’s other drops. When he lands perfectly, the crowd cheers. When he misses, they cheer louder, because in Peru, the ability to adapt and improve from failure is considered an essential component of growth. 24. How does the author create the lively atmosphere in paragraph 1? A. By making comparisons. B. By listing historical facts. C. By using rich sensory details. D. By presenting characters’ thoughts. 25. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A. The history of the tradition. B. The support of the performers. C. The introduction to the show. D. The efforts to preserve the Peru Circus. 26. What does the author want to tell by sharing Debra Jo Myers’s story? A. Parents should support their children’s hobbies. B. Teenagers are in danger when training on the swing. C. Girls have more difficulties in circus performances. D. The circus offers troubled kids a safe place to grow. 27. What does Kevin Nord’s experience in the circus show? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Still waters run deep. C. Failure is part of learning. D. Knowledge is power. C New York construction workers, who face some of the most dangerous working conditions in the world, are at risk of losing key legal protections. A proposed federal law, the Infrastructure Expansion Act, introduced by upstate Republican Congressman Nick Langworthy, aims to overrule New York’s 140-year-old Scaffold Law(《脚手架法》) for federally funded projects. This law holds employers fully responsible for worker injuries caused by falls from heights, encouraging them to maintain strict safety standards. Supporters of the repeal (废除) argue that the Scaffold Law increases insurance costs and 1discourages construction projects, including much-needed housing. However, critics say that weakening the law would put workers at greater risk. New York City’s rising buildings make construction work especially hazardous. According to the Deadly Skyline Report, construction deaths in the city rose to 30 in 2023, more than double the 2020 total. Experts link this rise to reduced safety checks during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The Scaffold Law ensures that if employers fail to provide safe conditions, injured workers receive fair compensation (补偿). Without it, companies might cut safety costs to boost profits, increasing the use of dangerous equipment like ladders instead of safer scaffolding. Some suggest a better solution: setting up video cameras at construction sites. This would help monitor safety, protect workers, and prevent false claims. Importantly, decisions about worker safety in New York should be made by local and state lawmakers, not federal politicians. New York needs more housing, but not at the cost of worker safety. Protecting those who build and maintain the city is not just a legal duty — it’s a moral one. 28. What is the main purpose of the Scaffold Law? A. To reduce housing costs. B. To lower insurance payments. C. To increase construction speed. D. To protect construction builders. 29. What does the underlined word “hazardous” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Doubtful. B. Popular. C. Dangerous. D. Reliable. 30. What is a possible consequence of repealing the Scaffold Law? A. Safety costs will rise. B. Worker injuries will increase. C. Dangerous facilities will appear. D. Building projects will be discouraged. 31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Don’t Satisfy the Growing Housing Need. B. Don’t Risk New York’s Worker Safety for Speed. C. Don’t Overlook the Impacts of the Scaffold Law. D. Don’t Ignore Rising Death Rates for Housing Needs. D The concept of glowing (发光的) plants has long fascinated humanity, offering a special way to control and use light and achieve beauty without relying on traditional illumination sources. However, the work of bioluminescence (生物发光) in plants has faced a significant challenge. Plants get their energy from light, but photosynthesis (光合作用) is wildly inefficient. It is estimated that most plants absorb less than 2 per cent of the light that falls on them, and they need some of this absorbed energy to survive and grow. That leaves precious little to convert (转化) back into light. In recent years, researchers have turned to advanced biotechnology to overcome the limitations. One innovative approach involves the use of persistent phosphors (磷光体), which are materials that glow for extended periods after being exposed to light. By adding these phosphors to plant leaves, researchers have successfully created glowing plants. However, this method has been criticized for being a “cheap gimmick.” When the added phosphors eventually degrade, the glow wears off, and the plants may cause environmental pollution when decomposed. Furthermore, the environmental and safety implications of high concentrations of phosphors in plants remain largely unexplored. Despite the challenge, advancements in genetic engineering hold promise for creating self-sustaining bioluminescent plants. For example, researchers have proposed the development of plants that can produce their own biodegradable phosphors, which would not only sustain the plant’s light emission but also minimize environmental harm. Such a breakthrough could even improve the efficiency of photosynthesis by temporarily storing light and converting it into usable energy. However, these technologies are still in the experimental stage and have not yet reached commercial viability. While the potential benefits of bioluminescent technology are clear, the associated challenges and concerns must not be ignored. There is still a long way to go to ensure its benefits are realized without damaging the planet’s weak ecosystems. 32. What is the main challenge of bioluminescence in plants? A. The small amount of usable sunlight. B. The limited sunlight falling on plants. C. The high cost of producing phosphors. D. The difficult survival of glowing plants. 33. What can we learn about the innovative approach in paragraph 3? A. It is thought of as a cheap method. B. It may not be a long-term solution. C. It makes the plants produce more light. D. It can help maintain a bright glow forever. 34. What is the breakthrough in bioluminescent plants? A. Adding persistent phosphors to leaves. B. Making plants generate sustainable phosphors. C. Converting stored light to boost photosynthesis. D. Decomposing plants to reduce environmental harm. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of biotechnology in glowing plants? A. Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Cautious. D. Uninterested. 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。 I have finally reached a place I never thought imaginable ... I now enjoy cooking for my family. While I’ve always been good at cooking, the challenge of planning a week’s worth of groceries and using up all the ingredients always seemed a huge task to me. Leftover produce would rot (腐烂) in my fridge in its plastic packages. ___36___ Most of the time, it was just easier to grab takeout on the way home. Also, though my husband and I shared the cooking, the constant planning and last-minute trips to the store were never ending, and we hated it. ___37___ But the idea of being sent a box with a specific amount of carrot slices in a little packet just felt strange to me. Thinking twice, I chose to sign up for a weekly produce box from our local grocery store. ___38___ The contents vary each week, depending on the season and often include local produce. Cooking this way was a much scarier task at first. You don’t really know what you are getting so it requires you to plan your meals around what you have and be creative. ___39___ After a lot of practice and patience, this “mystery box” cooking has made me skilled at meal planning and food management. I’ve learned broader skills, like understanding what each ingredient brings to a dish, which allows me to experiment and make replacements confidently. ___40___ I look forward to discovering what’s in my box and building meals from there. As my kids grow up, I hope to involve them too, so they can grow up excited and curious about food — even if they still prefer French fries. A. This made me feel guilty about wasting them. B. Dealing with this waste felt like a piece of cake. C. At first, this uncertainty even made me more stressed. D. Now, instead of hating meal planning, I find it exciting. E. Though it was a tough start the payoff has been life-changing. F. An obvious solution would have been a meal kit delivery service. G. It provides enough fresh food for a family like ours for one week. 第三部分 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。 Not having played for Banff’s girls’ hockey team for 50 years, I finally gathered the courage to join my 8-year-old grandson and his dad on the ice hockey. “Grandma scored!” my son-in-law yelled. “Of course she did,” my grandson replied. “She was on a team.” My heart ___41___.

Every day, she’d spot them huddled in cold corners, searching garbage bins for food. One sunny afternoon, while watching a tiny kitten shiver by the playground, she hit upon an idea: host a homemade cookie sale at school and use every penny raised to buy food and warm blankets for them. She rushed to tell her best friends Tom and Emma, who jumped at the chance to join. For an entire week, the three met at Lily’s house after school, their sleeves rolled up as they baked batches of cookies. Lily’s mom patiently showed them how to mix the dough (面团), and soon the kitchen was filled with a sweet smell of chocolate. After preparing enough cookies, they carefully packed each cookie into pretty paper boxes, decorating the lids with tiny, hand-drawn cats and dogs. They also spent an evening making bright, eye-catching posters that read “Help Our Furry Friends!” and planned to set up their booth (货摊) on the school playground that Sunday morning. On Friday night, Lily carried all the cookie boxes to school, her arms wrapped tightly around them to keep them safe. She left them in the back of the classroom, more than excited to wait and see how much money they’d raise. However, early Saturday morning, dark clouds rolled in, and a heavy rainstorm battered the town. Lily jumped out of bed, her heart racing as she grabbed her umbrella and hurried to school, her shoes splashing in puddles. When she pushed open the classroom door, her heart sank: some windows had been left open, and rain had blown in, soaking (浸泡) the boxes. Several falling apart, the cookies inside turned soggy (软的) and unappetizing. She bent down, picking up the wet boxes, and tears started to sting her eyes — all their hard work seemed to be ruined. Just then, Tom and Emma ran in, their raincoats dripping (滴水). They saw the soggy cookies and Lily’s red eyes. “Cheer up! We can fix it!” Emma said firmly. 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。 After hearing the news, their classmates appeared at Lily’s doorstep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Sunday morning, they put up the posters, arranging the remade cookies. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025~2026学年度第一学期期中学业水平质量监测 高二年级英语试题 说明：1.本试卷共12页，满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.请将所有答案填涂或填写在答题卡相应的答题处，否则不得分。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 How does the man feel?

B 【解析】 【原文】 M: I’ve been working from home for almost 10 years now and chose to work in this way soon after the birth of my oldest daughter because I wanted more time with children. At first, my company only allowed me to work from home three days a week. However, I can work at home almost all the time nowadays. And only go into the office for important meetings. Home working has been great for me. The best thing is that I feel much less stressed. It’s also easier to focus on what I’m doing, and not having to travel to and from the office saves me both money and time. However, home working isn’t suitable for everybody. I’m personally very independent, but sometimes people would feel pretty lonely without coworkers. Teamwork and meetings can also be pretty challenging; despite all the modern technology we have. For me, the main problem is finding a balance between work and my personal life. When your office is in your house, it’s very easy to find yourself working all the time. I have to be very strict with myself and close my office door at the end of the day. Still, I wouldn’t change it for the world. 第二部分 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 Are poems better than books? Poetry offers readers a different way of experiencing the written word. What you need to know ※ The oldest known long poem is The Epic of Gilgamesh, which was written about 4,000 years ago. ※ Poems often have emotional themes and use rhythm, rhyme and line breaks to convey their meaning. ※ Studies show that reading, watching or listening to poetry can improve well-being, empathy and learning. ※ In September, the Library of Congress named Arthur Sze the next US Poet Laureate (桂冠诗人), a position that fosters appreciation for poetry in the nation. There are many different forms of poetry, such as 14-line rhyming sonnets (十四行诗), three-line haikus (俳句) with exactly 17 syllables (音节), long and complicated odes (赋), and limericks that make you laugh out loud. William Shakespeare wrote sonnets about love, while Emily Dickinson wrote short lyric poems about life, death and domestic life. Epic poems, like Beowulf, tell tales of heroes and monsters. Many of Maya Angelou’s poems addressed themes of resilience (恢复力) and social justice, while Amanda Gorman writes about hope and change. There’s a poem for everyone, and some people say poetry is superior to longer works. Are poems better than books? YES Three reasons poems are better than books 1. Poems can be short and sweet, letting you read something beautiful and meaningful in a few minutes. 2. Whether it’s song lyrics, raps or short verses, it’s fun to memorize poetry and share it with friends. 3. One collection of poems can take you on a journey through a wide variety of themes. NO Three reasons poems are not better than books 1. You can immerse yourself in a book for days, weeks or months. Poems are usually too short for that. 2. When you read a book, you go on a meaningful journey with the characters and step into their world. 3. Poems can be open-ended and hard to get, while books have a satisfying ending. What do you think? Now that you’ve read a bit more about this issue, visit kids.junior.com/polls so you can vote in our debate. Vote YES if you think poems are better than books or NO if you don’t. We’ll publish the results next week. 21. What benefits does poetry bring to us? A. Singing in rhythm. B. Promoting personal growth. C. Writing long poems. D. Securing a position in the library. 22. Why does the writer mention Shakespeare, Dickinson, Angelou and Gorman? A. To prove the popularity of sonnets. B. To interpret the functions of poems. C. To show the variety of poetic types. D. To explain the theme of epic poems. 23. What makes people prefer books to poems? A. Open ending. B. Different themes. C. Deep reading. D. Meaningful characters. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了诗歌的相关知识、不同形式与代表诗人，以及“诗歌是否比书籍更好”的正反两方观点，引发读者思考与投票。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文What you need to know部分第3点“Studies show that reading, watching or listening to poetry can improve well-being, empathy and learning.(研究表明，阅读、观看或聆听诗歌能提升幸福感、同理心和学习能力)” 可知，诗歌能促进个人成长。故选B。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文What you need to know部分下最后一段 “There are many different forms of poetry, such as 14-line rhyming sonnets (十四行诗), three-line haikus (俳句) with exactly 17 syllables (音节), long and complicated odes (赋), and limericks that make you laugh out loud.(诗歌有许多不同的形式，比如 14 行押韵的十四行诗、恰好 17 个音节的三行俳句、冗长复杂的赋，以及能让你放声大笑的打油诗)”及“William Shakespeare wrote sonnets about love, while Emily Dickinson wrote short lyric poems about life, death and domestic life. Epic poems, like Beowulf, tell tales of heroes and monsters. Many of Maya Angelou’s poems addressed themes of resilience (恢复力) and social justice, while Amanda Gorman writes about hope and change.(威廉·莎士比亚写过关于爱情的十四行诗，而艾米莉·狄金森写过关于生命、死亡和家庭生活的短抒情诗。史诗，如《贝奥武夫》，讲述英雄和怪物的故事。玛雅·安杰洛的许多诗歌都以韧性和社会正义为主题，而阿曼达·戈尔曼则以希望和改变为主题)” 可知，后文提及莎士比亚、狄金森等诗人及其作品类型，是为了举例说明诗歌形式的多样性。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文NO Three reasons poems are not better than books部分第1点 “You can immerse yourself in a book for days, weeks or months.

Clowns greet families with silly jokes and rainbow-colored suckers (彩虹色棒棒糖). The smell of popcorn drifts through the air, trumpets (喇叭) sound, and children taste cotton candy that melts on the tongue. For the 11,000 residents of Peru, these sights, sounds and flavors are almost routine — because here, the circus is home. Peru’s love affair with the big top started more than a century ago. Three rail lines met in the small city, so famous traveling circuses such as Ringling Bros and Barnum & Bailey chose Peru as their winter headquarters. Elephants, zebras and hundreds of performers spent the off-season in town. When railroads later changed and the last circus car rolled away during World War II, many artists stayed, raising children who learned to juggle (玩杂耍), tumble (翻跟头) and fly on the swing. To keep the tradition alive, local schoolchildren began staging amateur shows on the courthouse lawn. Volunteers saved money for years, and in 1998, an old lumberyard became the Peru Circus Center Arena, a permanent, tent-shaped building one block from the tracks. Every July, during “City Circus Days,” 200 young performers present the skills they have practiced since February. About 400 adults sell tickets, sew costumes, build rigs, and coach the acts. No one is paid; everyone is proud. Debra Jo Myers, who once flew on the swing as a teenager, now watches from the stands. “The circus saved me,” she says. The year her parents divorced (离婚), her father was arrested and her grandfather died, practice every afternoon was the one place she felt safe. Today, she sees the same change in others: children who arrive with troubled hearts leave with strong bodies and loyal friends. Star aerialist Kevin Nord, a recent high-school graduate, is studying engineering at Purdue University, but each summer he returns to the ring. He knows that the classmates who catch him 30 feet in the air are also the people who help him survive physics exams and life’s other drops. When he lands perfectly, the crowd cheers. When he misses, they cheer louder, because in Peru, the ability to adapt and improve from failure is considered an essential component of growth. 24. How does the author create the lively atmosphere in paragraph 1? A. By making comparisons. B. By listing historical facts. C. By using rich sensory details. D. By presenting characters’ thoughts. 25. What is paragraph 3 of the text mainly about? A. The history of the tradition. B. The support of the performers. C. The introduction to the show. D. The efforts to preserve the Peru Circus. 26. What does the author want to tell by sharing Debra Jo Myers’s story? A. Parents should support their children’s hobbies. B. Teenagers are in danger when training on the swing. C. Girls have more difficulties in circus performances. D. The circus offers troubled kids a safe place to grow. 27. What does Kevin Nord’s experience in the circus show? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Still waters run deep. C Failure is part of learning. D. Knowledge is power. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Peru业余马戏团的历史传承、当地人为保留这一传统所做的努力，以及马戏团对当地孩子成长的积极影响。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第一段 “Clowns greet families with silly jokes and rainbow-colored suckers (彩虹色棒棒糖). The smell of popcorn drifts through the air, trumpets (喇叭) sound, and children taste cotton candy that melts on the tongue.(小丑们用滑稽的笑话和彩虹色棒棒糖迎接家庭观众。爆米花的香味弥漫在空气中，喇叭声响起，孩子们品尝着在舌尖融化的棉花糖)” 可知，作者通过视觉（小丑、彩虹色棒棒糖）、嗅觉（爆米花香味）、听觉（喇叭声）、味觉（棉花糖的味道）等丰富的感官细节营造了热闹的氛围。故选C。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文第三段“To keep the tradition alive, local schoolchildren began staging amateur shows on the courthouse lawn.(为了让这一传统延续下去，当地学生开始在法院草坪上举办业余表演)” 以及后文“志愿者存钱建场馆、年轻人排练表演、成年人提供各类支持”的内容可知，该段核心讲述了人们为保护Peru马戏团传统所做的努力。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第四段 “Debra Jo Myers, who once flew on the swing as a teenager, now watches from the stands. “The circus saved me,” she says. The year her parents divorced (离婚), her father was arrested and her grandfather died, practice every afternoon was the one place she felt safe. Today, she sees the same change in others: children who arrive with troubled hearts leave with strong bodies and loyal friends.(Debra Jo Myers十几岁时曾在秋千上表演空中飞人，如今她坐在看台上观看演出。“是马戏团拯救了我，” 她说。在她父母离婚、父亲被捕、祖父去世的那一年，每天下午的训练是她唯一能感受到安全感的地方。如今，她在其他人身上也看到了同样的转变：那些心怀烦恼而来的孩子，离开时不仅拥有了强健的体魄，还收获了真挚的朋友。)” 可知，作者分享Debra Jo Myers的故事，是为了说明马戏团能给有困扰的孩子提供一个安全的成长环境。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“Star aerialist Kevin Nord, a recent high-school graduate, is studying engineering at Purdue University, but each summer he returns to the ring.(明星高空杂技演员Kevin Nord是一名刚毕业的高中生，目前正在普渡大学攻读工程学专业，但每年夏天他都会回到马戏团的表演场)”以及“When he misses, they cheer louder, because in Peru, the ability to adapt and improve from failure is considered an essential component of growth.(当他失误时，观众们会欢呼得更响亮，因为在Peru，从失败中适应和进步的能力被视为成长的重要组成部分。)” 可知，Kevin Nord的经历体现了“失败是学习的一部分”这一道理。故选C。 C New York construction workers, who face some of the most dangerous working conditions in the world, are at risk of losing key legal protections. A proposed federal law, the Infrastructure Expansion Act, introduced by upstate Republican Congressman Nick Langworthy, aims to overrule New York’s 140-year-old Scaffold Law(《脚手架法》) for federally funded projects. This law holds employers fully responsible for worker injuries caused by falls from heights, encouraging them to maintain strict safety standards. Supporters of the repeal (废除) argue that the Scaffold Law increases insurance costs and 1discourages construction projects, including much-needed housing. However, critics say that weakening the law would put workers at greater risk. New York City’s rising buildings make construction work especially hazardous. According to the Deadly Skyline Report, construction deaths in the city rose to 30 in 2023, more than double the 2020 total. Experts link this rise to reduced safety checks during and after the COVID-19 pandemic. The Scaffold Law ensures that if employers fail to provide safe conditions, injured workers receive fair compensation (补偿). Without it, companies might cut safety costs to boost profits, increasing the use of dangerous equipment like ladders instead of safer scaffolding. Some suggest a better solution: setting up video cameras at construction sites. This would help monitor safety, protect workers, and prevent false claims. Importantly, decisions about worker safety in New York should be made by local and state lawmakers, not federal politicians. New York needs more housing, but not at the cost of worker safety. Protecting those who build and maintain the city is not just a legal duty — it’s a moral one. 28. What is the main purpose of the Scaffold Law? A. To reduce housing costs. B. To lower insurance payments. C. To increase construction speed. D. To protect construction builders. 29. What does the underlined word “hazardous” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Doubtful. B. Popular. C. Dangerous. D. Reliable. 30. What is a possible consequence of repealing the Scaffold Law? A. Safety costs will rise. B. Worker injuries will increase. C. Dangerous facilities will appear. D. Building projects will be discouraged. 31. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Don’t Satisfy the Growing Housing Need. B. Don’t Risk New York’s Worker Safety for Speed. C. Don’t Overlook the Impacts of the Scaffold Law. D. Don’t Ignore Rising Death Rates for Housing Needs. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文，主要讨论了美国联邦拟议法案试图废除纽约州《脚手架法》引发的争议，核心围绕“是否应牺牲建筑工人安全来推进住房等建设项目”展开。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第一段“This law holds employers fully responsible for worker injuries caused by falls from heights, encouraging them to maintain strict safety standards.(该法律规定雇主对工人高处坠落造成的伤害负全部责任，鼓励雇主维持严格的安全标准。)” 可知，《脚手架法》的核心目的是保护建筑工人的安全。故选D。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第二段“New York City’s rising buildings make construction work especially hazardous. According to the Deadly Skyline Report, construction deaths in the city rose to 30 in 2023, more than double the 2020 total.(纽约市不断崛起的高楼使得建筑工作尤其hazardous。根据《致命天际线报告》，2023年该市建筑死亡人数增至30人，是2020年总数的两倍多。)” 可知，后文“死亡人数激增”的内容是对前文划线词的解释，故“hazardous”应表示“危险的”。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“The Scaffold Law ensures that if employers fail to provide safe conditions, injured workers receive fair compensation.Without it, companies might cut safety costs to boost profits, increasing the use of dangerous equipment like ladders instead of safer scaffolding.(《脚手架法》确保，如果雇主未能提供安全的工作条件，受伤的工人将获得公平的赔偿。如果没有这项法律，企业可能会削减安全成本以提高利润，更多使用梯子等危险设备，而非更安全的脚手架。)” 可知，废除该法律可能导致工人受伤风险增加。故选B。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文最后一段 “New York needs more housing, but not at the cost of worker safety. Protecting those who build and maintain the city is not just a legal duty — it’s a moral one.(纽约需要更多住房，但不能以工人安全为代价。保护那些建设和维护这座城市的人，不仅是法律责任，更是道德责任。)” 及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了美国联邦拟议法案试图废除纽约州《脚手架法》引发的争议，核心观点是“不应为了推进建设而牺牲工人安全”。故选B。 D The concept of glowing (发光的) plants has long fascinated humanity, offering a special way to control and use light and achieve beauty without relying on traditional illumination sources. However, the work of bioluminescence (生物发光) in plants has faced a significant challenge. Plants get their energy from light, but photosynthesis (光合作用) is wildly inefficient. It is estimated that most plants absorb less than 2 per cent of the light that falls on them, and they need some of this absorbed energy to survive and grow. That leaves precious little to convert (转化) back into light. In recent years, researchers have turned to advanced biotechnology to overcome the limitations. One innovative approach involves the use of persistent phosphors (磷光体), which are materials that glow for extended periods after being exposed to light. By adding these phosphors to plant leaves, researchers have successfully created glowing plants. However, this method has been criticized for being a “cheap gimmick.” When the added phosphors eventually degrade, the glow wears off, and the plants may cause environmental pollution when decomposed. Furthermore, the environmental and safety implications of high concentrations of phosphors in plants remain largely unexplored. Despite the challenge, advancements in genetic engineering hold promise for creating self-sustaining bioluminescent plants. For example, researchers have proposed the development of plants that can produce their own biodegradable phosphors, which would not only sustain the plant’s light emission but also minimize environmental harm. Such a breakthrough could even improve the efficiency of photosynthesis by temporarily storing light and converting it into usable energy. However, these technologies are still in the experimental stage and have not yet reached commercial viability. While the potential benefits of bioluminescent technology are clear, the associated challenges and concerns must not be ignored. There is still a long way to go to ensure its benefits are realized without damaging the planet’s weak ecosystems. 32. What is the main challenge of bioluminescence in plants? A. The small amount of usable sunlight. B. The limited sunlight falling on plants. C. The high cost of producing phosphors. D. The difficult survival of glowing plants. 33. What can we learn about the innovative approach in paragraph 3? A. It is thought of as a cheap method. B. It may not be a long-term solution. C. It makes the plants produce more light. D. It can help maintain a bright glow forever. 34. What is the breakthrough in bioluminescent plants? A. Adding persistent phosphors to leaves. B. Making plants generate sustainable phosphors. C. Converting stored light to boost photosynthesis. D. Decomposing plants to reduce environmental harm. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards the use of biotechnology in glowing plants? A Supportive. B. Opposed. C. Cautious. D. Uninterested. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了植物生物发光面临挑战及研究进展和前景。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, the work of bioluminescence (生物发光) in plants has faced a significant challenge.(然而，植物实现生物发光的工作面临着重大挑战。)”和第二段“Plants get their energy from light, but photosynthesis (光合作用) is wildly inefficient. It is estimated that most plants absorb less than 2 per cent of the light that falls on them, and they need some of this absorbed energy to survive and grow. That leaves precious little to convert (转化) back into light.(植物从光中获取能量，但光合作用的效率极低。据估计，大多数植物吸收的落在它们身上的光还不到2%，而且它们需要一部分吸收的能量来维持生存和生长。这样一来，能转化回光的能量就所剩无几了。)”可知，植物生物发光的主要挑战是可用的阳光量很少。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“One innovative approach involves the use of persistent phosphors (磷光体), which are materials that glow for extended periods after being exposed to light. By adding these phosphors to plant leaves, researchers have successfully created glowing plants. However, this method has been criticized for being a “cheap gimmick.” When the added phosphors eventually degrade, the glow wears off, and the plants may cause environmental pollution when decomposed. Furthermore, the environmental and safety implications of high concentrations of phosphors in plants remain largely unexplored.(一种创新方法采用了持久性磷光体，这种材料在受光照射后会长时间发光。通过将这些磷光体添加到植物叶片上，研究人员成功培育出了发光的植物。然而，这种方法被批评为是一种“廉价噱头”。当添加的磷光体最终降解时，发光就会消失，而且植物分解时可能会造成环境污染。此外，植物中高浓度磷光体对环境和安全的影响在很大程度上仍未得到探索。)”可知，这种方法可能不是一个长期的解决方案。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Despite the challenge, advancements in genetic engineering hold promise for creating self-sustaining bioluminescent plants. For example, researchers have proposed the development of plants that can produce their own biodegradable phosphors, which would not only sustain the plant’s light emission but also minimize environmental harm. Such a breakthrough could even improve the efficiency of photosynthesis by temporarily storing light and converting it into usable energy.(尽管面临挑战，基因工程的进步仍有望培育出能自我维持的生物发光植物。例如，研究人员已提出开发能够自行产生可生物降解磷光体的植物，这样不仅能维持植物发光，还能将环境危害降到最低。这样的突破甚至可以通过暂时储存光并将其转化为可用能量来提高光合作用的效率。)”可知，生物发光植物的突破是让植物产生可持续的磷光体。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While the potential benefits of bioluminescent technology are clear, the associated challenges and concerns must not be ignored. There is still a long way to go to ensure its benefits are realized without damaging the planet’s weak ecosystems.(虽然生物发光技术的潜在好处是显而易见的，但相关的挑战和担忧也不容忽视。要确保在不破坏地球脆弱的生态系统的情况下实现其益处，仍有很长的路要走。)”可知，作者对生物发光植物中生物技术的应用持谨慎态度。故选C。 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。 I have finally reached a place I never thought imaginable ...

Every day, she’d spot them huddled in cold corners, searching garbage bins for food. One sunny afternoon, while watching a tiny kitten shiver by the playground, she hit upon an idea: host a homemade cookie sale at school and use every penny raised to buy food and warm blankets for them. She rushed to tell her best friends Tom and Emma, who jumped at the chance to join. For an entire week, the three met at Lily’s house after school, their sleeves rolled up as they baked batches of cookies. Lily’s mom patiently showed them how to mix the dough (面团), and soon the kitchen was filled with a sweet smell of chocolate. After preparing enough cookies, they carefully packed each cookie into pretty paper boxes, decorating the lids with tiny, hand-drawn cats and dogs. They also spent an evening making bright, eye-catching posters that read “Help Our Furry Friends!” and planned to set up their booth (货摊) on the school playground that Sunday morning. On Friday night, Lily carried all the cookie boxes to school, her arms wrapped tightly around them to keep them safe. She left them in the back of the classroom, more than excited to wait and see how much money they’d raise. However, early Saturday morning, dark clouds rolled in, and a heavy rainstorm battered the town. Lily jumped out of bed, her heart racing as she grabbed her umbrella and hurried to school, her shoes splashing in puddles. When she pushed open the classroom door, her heart sank: some windows had been left open, and rain had blown in, soaking (浸泡) the boxes. Several falling apart, the cookies inside turned soggy (软的) and unappetizing. She bent down, picking up the wet boxes, and tears started to sting her eyes — all their hard work seemed to be ruined. Just then, Tom and Emma ran in, their raincoats dripping (滴水). They saw the soggy cookies and Lily’s red eyes. “Cheer up! We can fix it!” Emma said firmly. 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。 After hearing the news, their classmates appeared at Lily’s doorstep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On Sunday morning, they put up the posters, arranging the remade cookies. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: After hearing the news, their classmates appeared at Lily’s doorstep. Word had spread quickly through group chats, and by Saturday afternoon, nearly twenty students gathered in Lily’s kitchen, ready to help. Some brought extra ingredients, others brought baking trays and aprons. Even Lily’s mom was surprised by the sudden crowd of eager helpers. Together, they mixed, rolled, and baked new batches of cookies late into the night, laughing and chatting as the warm aroma filled the house once more. This time, they double-checked the classroom windows and stored the freshly packed boxes in waterproof bags, determined not to let the rain ruin their efforts again. On Sunday morning, they put up the posters, arranging the remade cookies. Despite the cloudy sky, dozens of students and teachers stopped by their booth on the playground. The beautifully decorated boxes and heartfelt story drew everyone in, and soon all the cookies were sold out. By noon, they had raised enough money to buy not only food and blankets but also small shelters for the stray animals. As Lily watched a group of kids place a warm blanket over a sleeping cat, she smiled — her dream had grown into something far bigger than she’d ever imagined, thanks to friendship and community spirit. 【解析】 【导语】本文以莉莉救助流浪动物的行动为线索，讲述了莉莉与好友汤姆、艾玛计划通过售卖自制饼干筹集资金，为流浪猫狗购买食物和毛毯，却因暴雨淋湿饼干陷入困境，好友鼓励共同补救的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听到消息后，他们的同学出现在了莉莉家门口。”可知，第一段可描写同学们自发前来帮忙，带来食材和工具，众人连夜重新烤制饼干，做好防水储存，避免再次被雨水破坏的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“周日早上，他们张贴海报，摆放重新制作的饼干。”可知，第二段可描写师生们纷纷驻足购买，饼干售罄，筹集的资金不仅能买食物和毛毯，还能购置小窝，莉莉的梦想在友谊与集体精神助力下实现的情景。 2. 续写线索：同学上门相助——分工合作重烤饼干——做好防水准备——周日摆摊售卖——饼干售罄筹足资金——实现救助目标 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①帮忙：help/assist ②想象：imagine/picture ③售卖：sell out/put up for sale 情绪类 ①热切的：eager/enthusiastic ②微笑：smile/beam 【点睛】[高分句型1] Together, they mixed, rolled, and baked new batches of cookies late into the night, laughing and chatting as the warm aroma filled the house once more.（运用了现在分词短语作伴随状语） [高分句型2] As Lily watched a group of kids place a warm blanket over a sleeping cat, she smiled — her dream had grown into something far bigger than she’d ever imagined, thanks to friendship and community spirit.（运用了as引导时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。I haven't had a good nights sleep in over a week.
