The parks would catch your eye with its various geographical features. Death Valley National Park (DVNP) is one of the top national parks in California that you might regret missing. BACKGROUND Today, DVNP is known as one of the hottest and driest places in America, but would you believe it was once a lake more or less 20,000 years ago? Time changes its appearance and makes it a fantastic location today. With summer temperature reaching 120 degrees, this below-sea-level basin, despite its name, is still one of the well-known California State Parks, mainly due to its extreme beauty. HOW TO GET THERE You could take CA Highway 190; it is the main road crossing DVNP from east to west. The State Route 95 parallels the Park from North to South. THINGS TO DO Exploring the whole Death Valley Park would take extra time and effort, but it is worth it. To reach the Park’s popular attractions, such as Devils Golf Course and Natural Bridge Canyon, you could begin exploring the park from the central location, which is the Furnace Creek. Scotty’s Castle is one of the symbolic attractions of Death Valley. You could also find traces of its volcanic past by visiting Ubehebe Crater in the Grapevine area. And if you want a unique way to experience the depth, you could visit the Badwater Basin region; it would allow you to explore 280 feet below sea level! THINGS TO REMEMBER Upon exploring the Park, take note that your destinations are located in different areas, and useful facilities are only available when you are along highway. Nighttime travel allows you to see the fascinating sight of the night sky and stars of DVNP. 1. What can we learn about Death Valley National Park (DVNP) from the “BACKGROUND” part? A. It has been a dry area for 20,000 years B. Its summer temperature goes up to 120 degrees. C. It is named after its dangerous environment. D. It is not popular because of the extreme climate. 2. Which is the central location to start exploring DVNP’s popular attractions? A. Furnace Creek B. Devils Golf Course C. Scotty’s Castle D. Badwater Basin 3. What should visitors pay attention to when exploring DVNP? A. Badwater Basin is the best place to experience its depth. B. Facilities are everywhere in the park C. The park’s attractions are spread in different areas. D. Traveling at night should be avoided in the park. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了加利福尼亚州死亡谷国家公园的背景信息、交通方式、可进行的活动以及游览注意事项，旨在为想要前往该公园露营、休闲和了解历史的游客提供实用指南。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据BACKGROUND部分的描述“With summer temperature reaching 120 degrees, this below-sea-level basin, despite its name, is still one of the well-known California State Parks, mainly due to its extreme beauty.(夏季气温高达120华氏度，这个低于海平面的盆地，尽管名字听起来很可怕，但仍凭借极致的美景成为加州著名的州立公园之一)”可知，死亡谷国家公园夏季的气温可达120华氏度。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据THINGS TO DO部分的描述“To reach the Park’s popular attractions, such as Devils Golf Course and Natural Bridge Canyon, you could begin exploring the park from the central location, which is the Furnace Creek.(想要前往公园的热门景点，如魔鬼高尔夫球场和天然桥峡谷，你可以从公园的中心位置——炉溪开始游览)”可知，探索死亡谷国家公园热门景点的中心起点是炉溪。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据THINGS TO REMEMBER部分的描述“Upon exploring the Park, take note that your destinations are located in different areas, and useful facilities are only available when you are along highway.(游览公园时，要注意你的目的地分布在不同区域，而且实用设施只有在公路沿线才能找到)”可知，游客游览死亡谷国家公园时需要注意公园的景点分布在不同的区域。故选C。 B It is hard to say I was a runner years ago. The longest I had ever run was 5 km. What’s more, I didn’t like running. No matter how hard I tried, every so often I would fasten my old shoes, walk out of the house with heavy steps, get less than a mile in and wonder why I was bothering, especially when there were many more satisfying ways of exercising. Before last summer, I had never taken part in any kind of race at all. But at the end of July, I completed a triathlon (铁人三项) after two weeks’ training. At the end of it came the run — which ended up more like a walk. Then I realized something about it attracted me. The extremely painful fun of doing something I hated and was unprepared for turned out to be an excitement. The difficulty felt like something to test my abilities. When an invitation to the Berlin Marathon dropped onto my desk a few weeks after the triathlon, it felt like a change of fate. After the triathlon, I didn’t rush to start running regularly. Was it because I hate running? On the contrary, in the course of running I enjoyed the thrill of exceeding (超越) my limits. I felt it necessary to find out again where those limits might lie. So I said yes. Training for a marathon often takes at least 20 weeks. The training plan has become something to ease my worries when the race seems too frightening. This worry feels impossible to avoid, but there is something equally sure about the training plan: if I follow it, then I have done everything I can; if I do everything I can, then I won’t regret what comes at the end. 4. Why did the author often give up running within a mile in the past? A. He found running less enjoyable. B. His old shoes weren’t suitable for running. C. He was afraid of failing in running. D. He felt his steps heavy when running. 5. What can we learn about the author’s triathlon experience? A. He spent more than two weeks preparing for it. B. The running part of it was completed mainly by walking. C. It made him realize he was born to be a runner. 6. What made the author accept the Berlin Marathon invitation? A. The desire to prove his running ability to others. B. The confidence gained from completing the triathlon. C. The pleasure of pushing beyond his own limits. D. The hope of avoiding regret in the future. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. From a Non-runner to a Marathon Challenger. B. The Pain and Fun of Long-distance Running. C. How to Prepare for a Marathon as a Beginner. D. My First Triathlon Experience Changed My Life. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者原本不喜欢跑步、最长只跑过5公里，却在参加铁人三项后，被突破自我的快感吸引，进而接受柏林马拉松邀请并开始备战的经历，展现了作者从排斥跑步到挑战马拉松的转变过程。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“No matter how hard I tried, every so often I would fasten my old shoes, walk out of the house with heavy steps, get less than a mile in and wonder why I was bothering, especially when there were many more satisfying ways of exercising (无论我多努力尝试，我常常会系好旧跑鞋，迈着沉重的步伐走出家门，跑不到一英里就开始疑惑自己何苦费这个劲，尤其是当时还有很多更令人满意的锻炼方式)”可知，作者过去跑不到一英里就放弃，是因为他觉得跑步不如其他锻炼方式有趣。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But at the end of July, I completed a triathlon (铁人三项) after two weeks’ training. At the end of it came the run — which ended up more like a walk (但在七月底，经过两周的训练，我完成了一场铁人三项。赛事的最后一项是跑步——而那段路程我最终几乎是走下来的)”可知，作者在铁人三项的跑步环节基本是靠走路完成的。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“After the triathlon, I didn’t rush to start running regularly. Was it because I hate running? On the contrary, in the course of running I enjoyed the thrill of exceeding (超越) my limits. I felt it necessary to find out again where those limits might lie. So I said yes (铁人三项结束后，我并没有急于规律跑步。难道是因为我讨厌跑步吗？恰恰相反，在跑步的过程中，我体会到了超越自身极限的快感。我觉得有必要再次探寻自己的极限在哪里。于是我接受了邀请)”可知，作者接受柏林马拉松邀请的原因是享受突破自身极限的乐趣。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开篇点明作者过去不喜欢跑步、跑步距离极短，接着讲述他参加铁人三项的经历以及从中感受到的突破极限的快感，最后说明他因此接受柏林马拉松的邀请并开始备战。全文围绕作者从一个不跑步的人转变为马拉松挑战者的过程展开。选项A“从一个不跑步的人到马拉松挑战者”精准概括了文章的核心叙事线索，符合主题，适合用作标题。故选A。 C Scientists are enlisting some special participants in their efforts to predict earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other natural events. Among these participants are thousands of dogs, goats, and other farmyard animals, which are involved in studies monitoring their movements from space. The programme uses tiny tracking devices (装置) that are fitted to mammals, birds and insects. The detailed movements of these creatures will then be monitored from a special satellite that will be launched into space next year. The aim is to study how they react to oncoming natural events like volcanic eruptions. “The value of studying animals with markers has already been shown in early experiments on Mount Etna,” said Wikelski, the project leader, last week. “We have found the behaviour of goats is pretty good at predicting large volcanic eruptions.” Sensors have shown the animals become nervous before an eruption and refuse to move to higher grasslands that they would normally be happy to visit. “They know beforehand what is coming. We don’t know how they do it, but they do.” said Wikelski. Stories of animals behaving strangely before earthquakes or eruptions are not new. The Greek historian Thucydides claimed that mice, dogs and snakes deserted the city of Helice just before an earthquake struck in 373 BC. Similarly, the 1975 Haicheng earthquake in China occurred after snakes and mice were witnessed leaving their caves. “Why these animals behaved this way is less clear, but understanding how creatures react to geological changes is just one interesting part of this technological change”, said Wikelski. “For instance, we can also survey wildlife health from space,” he said. An example is provided by electronic ear markers that have been attached to wild pigs. From changes in an animal’s movements, these markers show that if a wild pig develops African swine fever (ASF), the disease spreads. easily between wild pigs and farm pigs. Knowing when a disease outbreak occurs in the wild could be important for reducing the disease’s impact on farms. “This is a game-changer for wildlife disease monitoring,” said Kevin Morelle, a scientist based at the Max Planck Institute. 8. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 3 mean? A. We are unsure of animals’ reaction but they react. B. We can’t study animals’ movements but they move. C. We can’t understand animals’ behavior but they behave. D. We don’t know animals’ prediction method but they can predict. 9. Why are the cities of Helice and Haicheng mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To describe city disasters. B. To show historical records. C. To prove animal early warnings. D. To compare different earthquakes. 10. What’s the potential application of animal-disease study? A. Guessing how diseases might spread between wild animals and farm animals. B Stopping animal diseases from starting by changing where the animals live. C. Protecting farm animals by discovering when diseases spread from wild animals. D. Studying how sick animals move to make new ways to treat their diseases. 11. What might the author continue talking about? A. Other natural events to predict. B. Further uses of the animal studies. C. More examples of animal behaviors. D. New methods of satellite monitoring. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家正借助狗、山羊等动物参与预测地震、火山爆发等自然灾害的研究，通过给动物安装追踪装置并从太空监测其活动，探究它们对自然灾害的反应；同时提及动物在灾害前异常行为的历史记载，以及该研究在野生动物疾病监测方面的额外应用。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段前文““We have found the behaviour of goats is pretty good at predicting large volcanic eruptions.” Sensors have shown the animals become nervous before an eruption and refuse to move to higher grasslands that they would normally be happy to visit (“我们发现山羊的行为非常擅长预测大型火山爆发。”传感器显示，这些动物在火山爆发前会变得紧张，并且拒绝前往它们通常乐于去的较高草原)”可知，此处是在说明动物能预测火山爆发这一现象。划线句“We don’t know how they do it, but they do”中，“it”指代前文的“预测火山爆发”，因此该句意为“我们不知道动物是如何预测火山爆发的，但它们确实能做到”。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段首句“Stories of animals behaving strangely before earthquakes or eruptions are not new (动物在地震或火山爆发前行为异常的故事并不新鲜)”可知，该段后续提及的赫利斯城和海城的例子“The Greek historian Thucydides claimed that mice, dogs and snakes deserted the city of Helice just before an earthquake struck in 373 BC. Similarly, the 1975 Haicheng earthquake in China occurred after snakes and mice were witnessed leaving their caves.(希腊历史学家Thucydides声称，就在公元前373年地震发生之前，老鼠、狗和蛇逃离了赫利斯城。类似地，1975年中国海城地震发生时，人们看到蛇和老鼠离开洞穴。)”等都是为了佐证这一观点，即证明动物在自然灾害前会发出早期预警。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“From changes in an animal’s movements, these markers show that if a wild pig develops African swine fever (ASF), the disease spreads easily between wild pigs and farm pigs. Knowing when a disease outbreak occurs in the wild could be important for reducing the disease’s impact on farms.(通过动物活动的变化，这些标记显示，如果野猪感染了非洲猪瘟，这种疾病很容易在野猪和家猪之间传播。了解野生动物中疾病爆发的时间，对减少疾病对农场的影响可能很重要)”可知，动物疾病研究的潜在应用是通过发现疾病从野生动物传播的时间来保护农场动物。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。文章前文介绍了利用动物预测自然灾害的研究、相关历史案例，以及该研究在野生动物疾病监测中的应用，最后一段中引用科学家的话“This is a game-changer for wildlife disease monitoring(这将改变野生动物疾病监测的游戏规则)”称其为“野生动物疾病监测的变革者”。结合全文围绕“动物研究的应用”展开的逻辑，作者接下来可能会继续探讨这类动物研究的其他进一步用途。故选B。 D There are 7,000 languages currently spoken worldwide, with English being the most widely used — around 1.35 billion people speak it, but half of them could be endangered, according to a new study. It is predicted that 1,500 known languages may no longer be spoken by the end of this century. Researchers from The Australian National University (ANU) analyzed thousands of languages to recognize factors that put endangered ones at risk. The findings highlight a connection between widespread formal schooling and language loss, as the main languages taught in class often make local languages less important A second factor causing the threat to endangered languages is the density (密度) of roads in an area. While communication with other language communities can help preserve local languages, increased connection to the wider world may not do so. “We found that the more roads there are, connecting country to city, and villages to towns, the higher the risk of languages being endangered. It’s as if roads are helping main languages take over other smaller languages,” said Professor Lindell Bronham, one of the researchers of the study. Can technology help save local languages? While past studies have pointed out technology is contributing to the decline of some local languages — by focusing attention on a few major languages at the expense of smaller ones — today’s technology could hold a new solution. While there are websites and apps to help learners pick up widely spoken languages such as Spanish, English and Chinese, some have been redesigned to teach or preserve endangered ones. Ma! Iwaidja, for example, is an app that enables those working with speakers of the Iwaidja local Australian language to record words and translations. It also includes a dictionary and a word maker to help users master grammar and vocabulary. 12. What’s one reason for the loss of languages according to the findings? A. Lack of native speakers. B. Lack of school education. C. Impact of major languages. D. School teaching of major languages. 13. Which of the following might Bronham agree with? A. Roads help preserve local languages. B. The increase in roads does harm to endangered languages. C. Roads in the countryside help endangered languages survive. D. Contact with other languages can protect endangered languages. 14. What’s the author’s attitude towards technology in saving local languages? A. Curious. B. Doubtful. C. Favorable, D. Unclear. 15. What is the main purpose in writing the text? A. To analyze the causes of language loss and a possible solution. B. To discuss the necessity of promoting educational equality C. To highlight the importance of learning more languages. D. To explain why English is the most widely spoken language. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出全球现存7000种语言，其中半数可能面临濒危风险，分析了导致语言消亡的两大因素，即主流语言主导的正规教育以及地区道路密度提升，同时介绍了技术手段为保护濒危语言提供的新解决方案。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The findings highlight a connection between widespread formal schooling and language loss, as the main languages taught in class often make local languages less important (研究结果强调了普及的正规教育与语言消亡之间的关联，因为课堂上教授的主流语言往往会让本土语言变得不那么重要)”可知，学校教授主流语言是造成语言消亡的原因之一。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“We found that the more roads there are, connecting country to city, and villages to towns, the higher the risk of languages being endangered. It’s as if roads are helping main languages take over other smaller languages (我们发现，连接城乡、村镇的道路越多，语言面临濒危的风险就越高。仿佛道路在帮助主流语言取代其他小众语言)”可推知，Bronham认为道路数量的增加会对濒危语言造成损害。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Can technology help save local languages? While past studies have pointed out technology is contributing to the decline of some local languages — by focusing attention on a few major languages at the expense of smaller ones — today’s technology could hold a new solution (技术能帮助拯救本土语言吗？虽然以往的研究指出，技术曾因将关注度集中在少数几种主流语言上、忽视小众语言而导致部分本土语言走向衰落，但如今的技术或许能提供新的解决方案)”可推知，作者对技术在拯救本土语言方面的作用持支持态度。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。文章开篇提出全球语言濒危的现状，接着分析了导致语言消亡的两大原因，最后介绍了技术手段为保护濒危语言提供的可行方案。全文围绕“语言消亡的原因”和“对应的解决办法”展开。由此推知，文章目的是分析语言消亡的原因并提供一种可能的解决方案。故选A。 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。 How to Make Small Talk Casual conversations are a great way to connect with others, but knowing how to start and keep them going smoothly can be tricky. Here are some useful tips to help you. Offer a friendly greeting or introduction to start the conversation. ____16____ If you’re seeing someone you already know, just say hello and greet them by their name. This is simple and direct and lets the person know you’re excited to talk. If you don’t know the person, introduce yourself first so you feel more confident and in control of the conversation. Keep your body language friendly and open. While chatting, always make yourself seem approachable. ____17____ Avoid crossing your arms, putting your hands in your pockets, and slumping your shoulders, which read as defensive or nervous postures. Aim to make a connection with the person you’re talking to. ____18____ If they say something that reminds you of your own experiences, offer a comment after the other person finishes speaking. If you hear something that interests you, ask them for more information. Try to jump on any subject the other person brings up that you also have experience with. Horseback riding, travel spots, music artists-as long as it’s lighthearted and forms a connection it’s a fair game Keep things light and positive, and avoid serious topics. Small talk is just that-small. To keep the atmosphere relaxing, avoid such topics as politics, religion, and relationships. ____19____. Instead, stick to everyday things like weather. Let the pauses in the conversation pass by naturally. When you’re getting to know someone, an awkward silence every now and then is basically unavoidable. Don’t feel like you have to fill every gap and pause in the conversation-it’s best to let those pauses breathe a little. ____20____ Thank them for chatting to end the conversation. Thank the person for talking and say goodbye. If it went well, offer to hang out again, or say you look forward to running into them later. You might even ask for their contact information. A. These topics often cause unnecessary tension or arguments. B. Pay attention to the other person’s words and tone for real connection. C. The way you start the conversation depends on whether you know the person or not. D. Make eye contact, stand straight, and relax your shoulders to show openness. E. When the conversation slows, take a deep breath, and think of a relevant question to continue. F. Leading every part of the conversation is essential to avoid uncomfortable moments. G Sharing your own related stories properly can strengthen the connection you’re building. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. B 19. A 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章从开启对话、肢体语言、建立共鸣、话题选择、应对沉默、结束对话六个方面，给出了进行闲聊的实用技巧。 【16题详解】 下文“If you’re seeing someone you already know, just say hello and greet them by their name. This is simple and direct and lets the person know you’re excited to talk. If you don’t know the person, introduce yourself first so you feel more confident and in control of the conversation.(如果你见到的是已经认识的人，只需打个招呼并叫出对方的名字。这种方式简单直接，能让对方知道你很乐意和他聊天。如果你不认识这个人，先自我介绍，这样你会更自信，也能更好地掌控对话。)”分别介绍了对已经认识的人、不认识的人两种不同的闲聊开启方式。C项“开启对话的方式取决于你是否认识对方。”作为该段主旨句，精准概括下文核心内容，“whether you know the person or not”与下文的“someone you already know”和“don’t know the person”直接呼应，符合段落主旨。故选C。 【17题详解】 上文“Keep your body language friendly and open.(保持肢体语言友好且开放。)”是该段主题句，下文“Avoid crossing your arms, putting your hands in your pockets, and slumping your shoulders, which read as defensive or nervous postures.(避免抱臂、插兜和含胸驼背，这些姿势会显得有防备心或紧张。)”列举了需要避免的肢体动作。D项“进行眼神交流，站直身体，放松肩膀，以此展现开放的态度。”承接上文，给出了友好开放肢体语言的具体做法，“show openness”呼应主题句，同时与下文的负面例子形成对比，逻辑连贯。故选D。 【18题详解】 上文“Aim to make a connection with the person you’re talking to.(努力与交谈对象建立共鸣。)”是该段主题句，下文“If they say something that reminds you of your own experiences, offer a comment after the other person finishes speaking. If you hear something that interests you, ask them for more information. Try to jump on any subject the other person brings up that you also have experience with. Horseback riding, travel spots, music artists-as long as it’s lighthearted and forms a connection it’s a fair game.(如果对方说的话让你想起了自己的经历，等对方说完后发表看法。如果你听到了感兴趣的内容，向对方询问更多细节。尽量抓住对方提出的任何你也有相关经历的话题。骑马、旅行景点、音乐歌手——只要话题轻松且能建立共鸣，都是合适的选择。)”给出了建立共鸣的具体方法。B项“关注对方的话语和语气，以此建立真正的共鸣。”承接上文，点明了建立共鸣的前提是关注对方，“real connection”呼应主题句，同时引出下文的具体做法，贴合段落逻辑。故选B。 【19题详解】 上文“Keep things light and positive, and avoid serious topics. Small talk is just that-small. To keep the atmosphere relaxing, avoid such topics as politics, religion, and relationships.(保持话题轻松积极，避免严肃话题。闲聊本就是轻松随意的交流。为了让氛围更放松，要避开政治、宗教和人际关系这类话题。)”指出闲聊要避开严肃话题，下文“Instead, stick to everyday things like weather.(相反，要聚焦天气这类日常话题。)”给出了合适的闲聊话题。A项“这些话题往往会引发不必要的紧张或争论。”承接上文，解释了为何要避开政治、宗教等话题，“these topics”指代上文的“politics, religion, and relationships”，同时为下文“聚焦日常话题”的建议做铺垫，符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 上文“Let the pauses in the conversation pass by naturally. When you’re getting to know someone, an awkward silence every now and then is basically unavoidable. Don’t feel like you have to fill every gap and pause in the conversation-it’s best to let those pauses breathe a little.(让对话中的停顿自然过渡。当你刚认识一个人时，偶尔出现尴尬的沉默基本上是不可避免的。不必非要填补对话中的每一个空白和停顿——最好给这些停顿一些缓冲的空间。)”强调了要坦然应对闲聊中的沉默，E项“当对话节奏变慢时，深呼吸，想出一个相关的问题来延续对话。”承接上文，给出了沉默出现时的合理应对方法。故选E。 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。 A kind act is often its own reward.

We lived in a small house for years, but she had a kind heart-she always invited lonely people to our home on holidays. Every December, she’d tell strangers, coworkers, or anyone with no Christmas Eve plans, “Come over! No one should be alone.” She even knew how to help shy people feel comfortable. Once, she asked a quiet old lady from downstairs to stir hot cocoa. By night’s end, the lady was laughing with everyone. Mom often said, “Giving people a little task helps them forget their nerves.” Last year, a new neighbor named George moved in next door. He was very quiet-when we ran into each other, he would only nod quickly to say hello and never stop to chat. If we made eye contact, he would twist the edge of his jacket with his fingers and then look away in a hurry, as if he had been caught doing something wrong. Sometimes when we were watering plants in the garden in front of our house, I would see him pause at his door, like he wanted to say something. But before we could wave at him, he would lower his head and hurry into his house Around Thanksgiving, we met George while carrying groceries at the doorway. “Got any holiday plans?” Mom asked warmly, her voice soft not to scare him. George froze, then shook his head, his ears turning pink. “Just... staying home,” he mumbled, staring at my grocery bag instead of our eyes. “Join our open house party!” Mom smiled. “Lots of food, and we can get to know each other.” George’s cheeks turned redder. He stepped back, looking overwhelmed. “Thank you, but I... I’m bad with crowds. New people make me nervous,” he said quietly, scratching his neck nervously. He apologized quickly and closed his door softly. Mom patted my shoulder: “Being shy around strangers is hard, especially on holidays. We need to reach out slowly.” That night, I thought about George’s nervous little movements and felt sorry for him. We had to help him feel welcome, just like Mom did for the old lady 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Para 1.

Our friendship began, and soon Christmas Eve arrived. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Para 1. Inspired by Mom’s kindness, I came up with a gentle way to reach George. I baked some chocolate cookies — his favorite, I guessed from the empty wrappers by his door — and wrote a note. “Hope these warm your day. No pressure to join the party, just wanted you to know you’re welcome.” I knocked softly and left the cookies outside his door, then hurried back. The next morning, I found an empty plate with a short note: “Thanks, they’re delicious.” A small smile crept onto my face; our first connection was made. Para 2. Our friendship began, and soon Christmas Eve arrived. This time, Mom didn’t invite George directly. Instead, she asked me to pass him a handwritten invitation: “Come anytime if you feel like it — we saved you a seat by the fireplace.” To my joy, George showed up at dusk, carrying a small potted Christmas tree. He still seemed a little nervous, so I handed him a mug of hot cocoa and asked him to help arrange the tree. By night’s end, he was laughing with everyone. No one was alone that Christmas Eve, just as Mom always hoped. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了单亲妈妈带着女儿（即作者）生活，习惯在假期邀请孤独的人到家中共度，面对内向害羞的新邻居乔治，妈妈提出邀请却被以“不擅长应对人群”拒绝，作者受妈妈启发决心用温和的方式拉近与乔治的距离的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句“受妈妈善良的启发，我想到了一个温和的方式去接近乔治。”可知，本段可描写作者主动靠近乔治的具体行动。 ② 由第二段首句“我们的友谊开始了，很快平安夜就到了。”可知，本段可描写平安夜的相聚场景，呼应标题“平安夜不孤单”与妈妈“不让任何人独自过节”的初衷。 2. 续写线索：受启发想温和方式——烤饼干留便条赠乔治——乔治致谢建立联结——友谊开启迎平安夜——手写邀请预留座位——乔治赴约带礼物——帮忙布置树融入氛围——众人欢笑共度平安夜 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①. 留下：leave/lay down ②. 携带：carry/hold ③. 安排：arrange/put...in order 情绪类 ①.紧张的：nervous/anxious ②. 喜悦：joy/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1].

The parks would catch your eye with its various geographical features. Death Valley National Park (DVNP) is one of the top national parks in California that you might regret missing. BACKGROUND Today, DVNP is known as one of the hottest and driest places in America, but would you believe it was once a lake more or less 20,000 years ago? Time changes its appearance and makes it a fantastic location today. With summer temperature reaching 120 degrees, this below-sea-level basin, despite its name, is still one of the well-known California State Parks, mainly due to its extreme beauty. HOW TO GET THERE You could take CA Highway 190; it is the main road crossing DVNP from east to west. The State Route 95 parallels the Park from North to South. THINGS TO DO Exploring the whole Death Valley Park would take extra time and effort, but it is worth it. To reach the Park’s popular attractions, such as Devils Golf Course and Natural Bridge Canyon, you could begin exploring the park from the central location, which is the Furnace Creek. Scotty’s Castle is one of the symbolic attractions of Death Valley. You could also find traces of its volcanic past by visiting Ubehebe Crater in the Grapevine area. And if you want a unique way to experience the depth, you could visit the Badwater Basin region; it would allow you to explore 280 feet below sea level! THINGS TO REMEMBER Upon exploring the Park, take note that your destinations are located in different areas, and useful facilities are only available when you are along highway. Nighttime travel allows you to see the fascinating sight of the night sky and stars of DVNP. 1. What can we learn about Death Valley National Park (DVNP) from the “BACKGROUND” part? A. It has been a dry area for 20,000 years B. Its summer temperature goes up to 120 degrees. C. It is named after its dangerous environment. D. It is not popular because of the extreme climate. 2. Which is the central location to start exploring DVNP’s popular attractions? A. Furnace Creek B. Devils Golf Course C. Scotty’s Castle D. Badwater Basin 3. What should visitors pay attention to when exploring DVNP? A. Badwater Basin is the best place to experience its depth. B. Facilities are everywhere in the park C. The park’s attractions are spread in different areas. D. Traveling at night should be avoided in the park. B It is hard to say I was a runner years ago. The longest I had ever run was 5 km. What’s more, I didn’t like running. No matter how hard I tried, every so often I would fasten my old shoes, walk out of the house with heavy steps, get less than a mile in and wonder why I was bothering, especially when there were many more satisfying ways of exercising. Before last summer, I had never taken part in any kind of race at all. But at the end of July, I completed a triathlon (铁人三项) after two weeks’ training. At the end of it came the run — which ended up more like a walk. Then I realized something about it attracted me. The extremely painful fun of doing something I hated and was unprepared for turned out to be an excitement. The difficulty felt like something to test my abilities. When an invitation to the Berlin Marathon dropped onto my desk a few weeks after the triathlon, it felt like a change of fate. After the triathlon, I didn’t rush to start running regularly. Was it because I hate running? On the contrary, in the course of running I enjoyed the thrill of exceeding (超越) my limits. I felt it necessary to find out again where those limits might lie. So I said yes. Training for a marathon often takes at least 20 weeks. The training plan has become something to ease my worries when the race seems too frightening. This worry feels impossible to avoid, but there is something equally sure about the training plan: if I follow it, then I have done everything I can; if I do everything I can, then I won’t regret what comes at the end. 4. Why did the author often give up running within a mile in the past? A. He found running less enjoyable. B. His old shoes weren’t suitable for running. C. He was afraid of failing in running. D. He felt his steps heavy when running. 5. What can we learn about the author’s triathlon experience? A. He spent more than two weeks preparing for it. B. The running part of it was completed mainly by walking. C. It made him realize he was born to be a runner. 6. What made the author accept the Berlin Marathon invitation? A. The desire to prove his running ability to others. B. The confidence gained from completing the triathlon. C. The pleasure of pushing beyond his own limits. D. The hope of avoiding regret in the future. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. From a Non-runner to a Marathon Challenger. B. The Pain and Fun of Long-distance Running. C. How to Prepare for a Marathon as a Beginner. D. My First Triathlon Experience Changed My Life. C Scientists are enlisting some special participants in their efforts to predict earthquakes, volcanic eruptions and other natural events. Among these participants are thousands of dogs, goats, and other farmyard animals, which are involved in studies monitoring their movements from space. The programme uses tiny tracking devices (装置) that are fitted to mammals, birds and insects. The detailed movements of these creatures will then be monitored from a special satellite that will be launched into space next year. The aim is to study how they react to oncoming natural events like volcanic eruptions. “The value of studying animals with markers has already been shown in early experiments on Mount Etna,” said Wikelski, the project leader, last week. “We have found the behaviour of goats is pretty good at predicting large volcanic eruptions.” Sensors have shown the animals become nervous before an eruption and refuse to move to higher grasslands that they would normally be happy to visit. “They know beforehand what is coming. We don’t know how they do it, but they do.” said Wikelski. Stories of animals behaving strangely before earthquakes or eruptions are not new. The Greek historian Thucydides claimed that mice, dogs and snakes deserted the city of Helice just before an earthquake struck in 373 BC. Similarly, the 1975 Haicheng earthquake in China occurred after snakes and mice were witnessed leaving their caves. “Why these animals behaved this way is less clear, but understanding how creatures react to geological changes is just one interesting part of this technological change”, said Wikelski. “For instance, we can also survey wildlife health from space,” he said. An example is provided by electronic ear markers that have been attached to wild pigs. From changes in an animal’s movements, these markers show that if a wild pig develops African swine fever (ASF), the disease spreads. easily between wild pigs and farm pigs. Knowing when a disease outbreak occurs in the wild could be important for reducing the disease’s impact on farms. “This is a game-changer for wildlife disease monitoring,” said Kevin Morelle, a scientist based at the Max Planck Institute. 8.

A Guessing how diseases might spread between wild animals and farm animals. B. Stopping animal diseases from starting by changing where the animals live. C. Protecting farm animals by discovering when diseases spread from wild animals. D. Studying how sick animals move to make new ways to treat their diseases. 11. What might the author continue talking about? A. Other natural events to predict. B. Further uses of the animal studies. C. More examples of animal behaviors. D. New methods of satellite monitoring. D There are 7,000 languages currently spoken worldwide, with English being the most widely used — around 1.35 billion people speak it, but half of them could be endangered, according to a new study. It is predicted that 1,500 known languages may no longer be spoken by the end of this century. Researchers from The Australian National University (ANU) analyzed thousands of languages to recognize factors that put endangered ones at risk. The findings highlight a connection between widespread formal schooling and language loss, as the main languages taught in class often make local languages less important A second factor causing the threat to endangered languages is the density (密度) of roads in an area. While communication with other language communities can help preserve local languages, increased connection to the wider world may not do so. “We found that the more roads there are, connecting country to city, and villages to towns, the higher the risk of languages being endangered. It’s as if roads are helping main languages take over other smaller languages,” said Professor Lindell Bronham, one of the researchers of the study. Can technology help save local languages? While past studies have pointed out technology is contributing to the decline of some local languages — by focusing attention on a few major languages at the expense of smaller ones — today’s technology could hold a new solution. While there are websites and apps to help learners pick up widely spoken languages such as Spanish, English and Chinese, some have been redesigned to teach or preserve endangered ones. Ma! Iwaidja, for example, is an app that enables those working with speakers of the Iwaidja local Australian language to record words and translations. It also includes a dictionary and a word maker to help users master grammar and vocabulary. 12. What’s one reason for the loss of languages according to the findings? A. Lack of native speakers. B. Lack of school education. C. Impact of major languages. D. School teaching of major languages. 13. Which of the following might Bronham agree with? A. Roads help preserve local languages. B. The increase in roads does harm to endangered languages. C. Roads in the countryside help endangered languages survive. D. Contact with other languages can protect endangered languages. 14. What’s the author’s attitude towards technology in saving local languages? A. Curious. B. Doubtful. C. Favorable, D. Unclear. 15. What is the main purpose in writing the text? A. To analyze the causes of language loss and a possible solution. B. To discuss the necessity of promoting educational equality C. To highlight the importance of learning more languages. D. To explain why English is the most widely spoken language. 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。 How to Make Small Talk Casual conversations are a great way to connect with others, but knowing how to start and keep them going smoothly can be tricky. Here are some useful tips to help you. Offer a friendly greeting or introduction to start the conversation. ____16____ If you’re seeing someone you already know, just say hello and greet them by their name. This is simple and direct and lets the person know you’re excited to talk. If you don’t know the person, introduce yourself first so you feel more confident and in control of the conversation. Keep your body language friendly and open. While chatting, always make yourself seem approachable. ____17____ Avoid crossing your arms, putting your hands in your pockets, and slumping your shoulders, which read as defensive or nervous postures. Aim to make a connection with the person you’re talking to. ____18____ If they say something that reminds you of your own experiences, offer a comment after the other person finishes speaking. If you hear something that interests you, ask them for more information. Try to jump on any subject the other person brings up that you also have experience with. Horseback riding, travel spots, music artists-as long as it’s lighthearted and forms a connection it’s a fair game Keep things light and positive, and avoid serious topics. Small talk is just that-small. To keep the atmosphere relaxing, avoid such topics as politics, religion, and relationships. ____19____. Instead, stick to everyday things like weather. Let the pauses in the conversation pass by naturally. When you’re getting to know someone, an awkward silence every now and then is basically unavoidable. Don’t feel like you have to fill every gap and pause in the conversation-it’s best to let those pauses breathe a little. ____20____ Thank them for chatting to end the conversation Thank the person for talking and say goodbye. If it went well, offer to hang out again, or say you look forward to running into them later. You might even ask for their contact information.

We lived in a small house for years, but she had a kind heart-she always invited lonely people to our home on holidays. Every December, she’d tell strangers, coworkers, or anyone with no Christmas Eve plans, “Come over! No one should be alone.” She even knew how to help shy people feel comfortable. Once, she asked a quiet old lady from downstairs to stir hot cocoa. By night’s end, the lady was laughing with everyone. Mom often said, “Giving people a little task helps them forget their nerves.” Last year, a new neighbor named George moved in next door. He was very quiet-when we ran into each other, he would only nod quickly to say hello and never stop to chat. If we made eye contact, he would twist the edge of his jacket with his fingers and then look away in a hurry, as if he had been caught doing something wrong. Sometimes when we were watering plants in the garden in front of our house, I would see him pause at his door, like he wanted to say something. But before we could wave at him, he would lower his head and hurry into his house Around Thanksgiving, we met George while carrying groceries at the doorway. “Got any holiday plans?” Mom asked warmly, her voice soft not to scare him. George froze, then shook his head, his ears turning pink. “Just... staying home,” he mumbled, staring at my grocery bag instead of our eyes. “Join our open house party!” Mom smiled. “Lots of food, and we can get to know each other.” George’s cheeks turned redder. He stepped back, looking overwhelmed. “Thank you, but I... I’m bad with crowds. New people make me nervous,” he said quietly, scratching his neck nervously. He apologized quickly and closed his door softly. Mom patted my shoulder: “Being shy around strangers is hard, especially on holidays. We need to reach out slowly.” That night, I thought about George’s nervous little movements and felt sorry for him. We had to help him feel welcome, just like Mom did for the old lady 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Para 1.
