B Sweat slips down my cheek as I glide (滑动) my fingers through the cool water. I’ve reached the turnaround point of the day’s kayaking (皮划艇) trip. I attempt a shoulder stretch and look around. It’s just me, a couple of seabirds, and shining freshwater to the horizon. This, I whisper to myself, is awesome. Solo (独自的) outings had never crossed my mind before because I always had a friend with me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city was tough. In October 2020, I decided to take adventure on a solo hiking trip. I went to Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) to admire the autumn leaves. Four miles in, I couldn’t remember the last time I’d felt so alive. I was more aware of my surroundings than I’d ever been while hiking that day. I studied the markings of trees, focused my ears on each forest sound and did something I almost never made time for: I listened to my own thoughts. Every word bubble in my mind pointed to a newfound truth — solo hiking is my happy place. When spring arrived, I decided to check off another solo sport: kayaking. My chest, initially tightened by nerves, was bursting with happiness when I finally reached the middle of the river that I’d long admired back on shore. Since that first solo hiking, adventuring alone has become like medicine for me. It has also pushed me to go beyond my comfort zone and to meet new people. Through meetups and social media, my adventure-friend circle has ballooned. But at least once per month, I schedule time to hit nature with my favorite friend: me. 24. What pushed the author to start going on solo outings? A. A longing for a peaceful life. B. A desire to challenge herself. C. Living close to a national park. D. Difficulty in finding companions. 25. What did the author do during her first solo hiking trip in CVNP? A. She explored a new route for hiking. B. She paid attention to her inner voice. C. She collected a variety of autumn leaves. D. She recorded the forest sounds on her phone. 26. How did the author feel after her first kayaking trip? A. Surprised. B. Delighted. C. Nervous. D. Lonely. 27. What does the underlined word “ballooned” in the last paragraph mean? A. Restarted. B. Transformed. C. Disappeared. D. Expanded. C A head of hair can be powerful. In the hands of a skilled stylist, your hair can help you boost your self-confidence, express your unique personality and land a new job. However, in the hands of Matter of Trust, an ecological non-profit organization that collects and recycles waste fibers, your hair might help save the environment. For over 20 years, Matter of Trust has been collecting hair and fur donations worldwide for the purpose of making “hair mats (垫子)” that can assist with oil spill clean-ups at sea. Typically, oil spills on land are cleaned up using plastic mats that are effective but environmentally problematic. After all, plastic is made from fossil fuels. Using it to clean up oil therefore requires drilling for even more oil. Hair and fur, on the other hand, are non-poisonous, renewable and able to take in liquids easily. Human hair, for example, can absorb about five times its weight in oil. “It makes more sense to use a renewable natural resource to clean up oil spills than it does to drill for more oil to use to clean up,” says Lisa Gautier, who established Matter of Trust in1998 and designed the organization’s Clean Wave program in 2001 when an Ecuadorian oil tanker carrying 243, 000 gallons of diesel oil ran aground on San Cristobal Island. And the leaking fuel threatened sea creatures. Eager to help with the disaster, Gautier teamed up with stylist Phillip McCrory, who tried to employ hair to absorb oil in 1989. Together, they designed mats made of human hair and animal fur which Matter of Trust continues to produce today in San Francisco, and at local centers in 17 different countries. To date, the organization has produced over 40, 000 hair mats. The product has been shared to clean up not only serious oil spills but also non-emergencies like oil leaks from vehicles and machinery. However, hair mats can only be used once and aren’t very effective at absorbing oil from sand. Still, hair mats are a surprising tool in the fight for a cleaner planet. 28. How are the advantages of hair mats showed? A. By providing examples. B. By making comparisons. C. By citing experts’ remarks. D. By presenting research results. 29. What made Lisa Gautier launch the Clean Wave program? A. An oil spill emergency. B. Her love for sea animals. C. A hairstylist’s proposal. D. Globally growing oil spills. 30. What do we know about Matter of Trust? A. It is busy cleaning the land. B. It sells hair mats worldwide. C. It is funded by the government. D. It has expanded into many countries. 31. What does the author want to say about hair mats from the last paragraph? A. They can work efficiently on beaches as well. B. They have been widely used in our daily life. C. They are imperfect but meaningful products. D. They are mainly applied to the vehicle industry. D Picture this, you win two tickets to a sold-out concert and eagerly text to ask your friends if they’d like to join. There comes their response “Maybe.” Your mood immediately turns, for you need to wait for their decisions before you can figure out your plans for the concert. If you’ve experienced anything like the above anecdote, you’re not alone. People responding “maybe” to invitations is a common yet annoying aspect of social life. What goes on in people’s heads when they aren’t sure whether to accept an invitation? Social invitations can be a delicate dance. People often misread what someone extending an invitation wants to hear and overestimate an inviter’s likelihood of preferring a “maybe” over a “no.” Moreover, they fail to realize how much more disrespected people feel when they receive a “maybe” in response to their invitation. Naturally, we wanted to figure out why this awkward dynamic plays out. We found that it’s largely due to something called “motivated reasoning.” Motivated reasoning occurs when a person interprets information in a biased (有偏差的) way to suit their own wishes. In other words, invitees convince themselves that inviters want to hear “maybe” instead of “no” because a “maybe” is better for the invitees, allowing them to leave their options open. Besides, people tend to overestimate the negative consequences of saying “no” to invitations, thinking it will upset, anger and disappoint inviters. However, there were certain situations that made people more comfortable saying “no” to an invitation. When recipients of an invitation put themselves in the shoes of the person extending the invitation, they are more likely to realize that they’d probably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited to do something they didn’t want to do, they had no desire to keep their options open. The motivated reasoning then became irrelevant. While navigating social situations can be tricky, being direct and definite is sometimes best. It might reduce your options. But it’ll keep those who invite you from being left uncertain and maybe they’ll still think of you when the next concert comes to town. 32. Why is the concert anecdote mentioned at the beginning? A. To explain the background of the invitation. B. To stress the importance of quick replies. C. To encourage immediate decision-making. D. To introduce a common social situation. 33. What is the main reason for the response of “maybe” to an invitation? A. A wrong interpretation of social cues. B. A desire for harmonious communication. C. An underestimation of refusal consequence. D. An understanding of the inviter’s expectation. 34. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph? A. Keeping your options open for better plans. B. Accepting invitations to maintain friendships. C. Prioritizing clear response over open options. D. Thinking twice before refusing an invitation. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Psychology behind “Maybe”. B. The Hidden Consequence of “Maybe”. C. “Maybe”: A Wrong Escape from Conflict. D. “Maybe”: A Perfect Solution to Invitations. 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。 Breaking bad news is never an easy task. 36 Therefore, understanding how to break bad news effectively is essential. Before you break bad news, it is important to offer comfort to the person, if appropriate. Make the connection between the identification of the emotions and the cause, and make it clear to the recipient that you get the connection. Do this by acknowledging their response, such as “I can see that you’re really upset and angry.” or “ 37 ” It is equally crucial to ensure that the setting is both comfortable and private. Avoid breaking bad news in public, where the person may feel exposed and unable to process their emotions. 38 Turn off any distracting devices and consider having a supportive third person present if appropriate. 39 This allows you to avoid repetition and tailor your message according to the severity and personal relevance of the news — whether it involves the loss of a pet, a job, or a family member. Finally, breaking bad news should not end with the delivery itself. 40 Help the person consider what steps to take next, whether it’s planning a memorial or exploring new opportunities. Offer specific assistance, such as accompanying them somewhere or explaining what will happen next. By following these steps, you can break bad news in a way that reduces distress and helps the recipient begin to cope. A. This is clearly a terrible shock. B. Have a clear plan for follow-up support. C. I am sorry to tell you what has happened. D. Try to determine what the person already knows. E. Choose your words to avoid discomfort and privacy invasion. F. Instead, choose a quiet place with minimal chance of interruption. G. But breaking it at the wrong time or in the wrong way can be even worse. 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。 One afternoon, as I was diving into life’s deeper questions with my students, a thoughtful boy named Jack raised his hand. “Why do so many people feel lost?” he asked.  41 their curiosity, I decided to show them the ropes through experience rather than simply  42 . “Follow me,” I said, leading them toward the nearby  43 .

I’d worked here for just two weeks, but I was always under his watch. “Just me and the chef in the kitchen? I… I’m not sure,” I stammered. John said firmly, “You’ve been watching, learning, and helping with every detail — taking orders correctly, keeping tables clean and handling change. I’m sure you’re ready.” “What if there are accidents?” I asked worriedly. “I’m sure you’ve learned the techniques from the past days,” John replied. Before he rushed out of the restaurant, he added, “Just trust yourself, find ways out and remember to smile.” Taking a deep breath, I straightened my apron (围裙) and walked toward the front of the restaurant. The crowd was starting to walk in — families with kids, couples chatting over coffee, and a few diners buried in their newspapers. The chef gave me a quick nod from the kitchen. The first hour went smoothly. I took orders, refilled drinks, and helped customers make the payments. Then a challenge came. A group of eight — clearly coming for a birthday party — walked in without a reservation. Our small restaurant was already nearly full — there was only a big table and two smaller tables. I led them to the big table by the window, but a lady shook her head and said, “This won’t do. We need space for the cake!” I tried to calm myself down and think hard. Then it hit me. I quickly put two smaller tables together near the window, covering the mismatched edges with a spare tablecloth. “How’s this? Plenty of room for your celebration,” I smiled, remembering John’s last words. The lady nodded instantly. 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。 However, accidents continued to happen, but I tried my best to handle them. Just as I was handing a satisfied customer the bill, John walked in. 高三英语 第1页 （共12页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
