Museum of BBQ (Kansas City, USA) Launched in spring 2025 it’s the creation of Kansas City-based journalist Jonathan Bender, a judge at the American Royal World Series of Barbecue (the largest barbecue competition on the planet), and Alex Pope, owner and chef at Kansas City’s Local Pig. This first-of-its-kind and 4,223-square-foot museum celebrates barbecue history through interactive routes.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍三座将于2025年开放的世界必看博物馆，包括其特色、藏品及创办相关信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Almaty Museum of Arts (Almaty, Kazakhstan)中的“Founded by an businessman Nurlan Smagulov, it houses his own collection of over 700 artworks, including pieces by Kazakh artists like Almagul Menlibayeva and international names like Richard Serra.(该博物馆由商人努尔兰・斯马古洛夫创办，收藏了他个人的700多件艺术品，包括阿尔马古尔・门利巴耶娃等哈萨克斯坦艺术家以及理查德・塞拉等国际知名人士的作品)”可知，努尔兰・斯马古洛夫是一位热爱艺术的收藏家，拥有大量个人艺术品收藏。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Museum of BBQ (Kansas City, USA)中的“Launched in spring 2025, it’s the creation of Kansas City-based journalist Jonathan Bender, a judge at the American Royal World Series of Barbecue (the largest barbecue competition on the planet), and Alex Pope, owner and chef at Kansas City’s Local Pig.(于2025年春天推出，是堪萨斯城的记者乔纳森·本德和堪萨斯城Local Pig的老板兼厨师亚历克斯·波普的创意)”可知，烧烤博物馆是由两人共同创办的。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This 101,000-square-foot museum, opened in the summer of 2025 (这座占地10.1万平方英尺的博物馆于2025年夏季开放)”、第三段中的“finally getting ready to open its doors in 2025 (最终将于2025年开门迎客)”、第四段中的“Launched in spring 2025 (于2025年春季推出)”可知，三座博物馆的共同点是都在2025年向公众开放。故选D项。 B Maria Rodriguez, our school cafeteria server for ten years, always greeted us with a warm smile while preparing meals. One Monday, however, I noticed her quietly wiping tears in the corner of the staff room. My first thought was that she might be facing personal hardships — until I saw her gently holding a framed certificate and whispering, “I did it finally.” Her tears, I soon realized, were of overwhelming pride. At 42, Maria had just earned her high school diploma (文凭). Struggling with hearing loss since childhood, Maria dropped out at 15 to support her sick parents. She worked multiple low-income jobs until securing stable work in our school cafeteria. Last year, when the school introduced a new digital ordering system, Maria’s supervisor gently explained that operating it required basic computer literacy — which in turn required a high school credential. “We’ll keep your position,” he said, “but to continue long-term, you’ll need to complete your diploma within two years.” Maria enrolled in night classes at a local adult education center. Balancing her cafeteria shifts, parenting two teenagers, and studying meant surviving on 4-5 hours of sleep nightly. She tracked her progress uniquely: every passed practice test earned a gold star on her kitchen calendar. “Those stars shouted ‘Keep going!’ on exhausting days,” she laughed. Her biology teacher remarked, “Maria often stayed after class to review materials — her determination was extraordinary.” When Maria received her diploma last month, she called it “a key opening doors I thought were sealed forever.” But for her, graduation isn’t an endpoint — it’s a starting point. She’s now enrolled in online business courses. “My next goal is to manage a food-service team,” she declared. “This is just the beginning.” 4. Why was Maria crying in the staff room? A. She felt exhausted from overwork. B. She recalled her family difficulties. C. She had achieved an important milestone. D. Her supervisor criticized her performance. 5. How did Maria motivate herself during tough times? A. By prioritizing sleep over studying. B. By reducing her workload significantly. C. By focusing on small symbols of progress. D. By seeking financial support from the school. 6. What does Maria mean by calling her diploma “a key opening doors I thought were sealed forever”? A. The diploma has brought her immediate wealth. B. The diploma has made her lose some important relationships. C. The diploma has allowed her to unlock physical doors in the school. D. The diploma has opened up new opportunities she once thought were impossible. 7. Which of the following best describes Maria’s character? A. Brave and determined. B. Persistent and ambitious. C. Careful and responsible. D. Timid and easily discouraged. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了学校食堂员工玛丽亚克服听力障碍与生活困难，重返课堂获得高中文凭并规划新目标的励志故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“My first thought was that she might be facing personal hardships — until I saw her gently holding a framed certificate and whispering, “I did it finally.” Her tears, I soon realized, were of overwhelming pride. (我起初以为她可能正遭遇个人困境，直到我看到她轻轻捧着一张装裱好的证书，小声说道“我终于做到了”。我很快意识到，她的眼泪是源于难以抑制的自豪。)”可知，玛丽亚哭泣是因为她拿到了高中文凭，实现了重要的人生里程碑。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“She tracked her progress uniquely: every passed practice test earned a gold star on her kitchen calendar. “Those stars shouted ‘Keep going!’ on exhausting days,” she laughed. (她用一种独特的方式记录自己的进步：每通过一次模拟测试，她就会在厨房的日历上画一颗金星。她笑着说“在那些疲惫不堪的日子里，这些星星都在喊着“坚持下去””。)”可知，玛丽亚通过关注代表进步的小标志来激励自己度过艰难时期。故选C项。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“But for her, graduation isn’t an endpoint — it’s a starting point. She’s now enrolled in online business courses. “My next goal is to manage a food-service team,” she declared. “This is just the beginning.”(“但对她来说，毕业不是终点，而是一个起点。她现在已经报名参加了在线商业课程。”她宣称“我的下一个目标是管理一个餐饮服务团队，这才刚刚开始”。)”可知，玛丽亚说文凭是“一把打开了那些我曾以为永远紧闭的大门的钥匙”，意思是这个文凭为她开启了曾经认为不可能的新机遇。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Balancing her cafeteria shifts, parenting two teenagers, and studying meant surviving on 4-5 hours of sleep nightly. She tracked her progress uniquely: every passed practice test earned a gold star on her kitchen calendar. “Those stars shouted ‘Keep going!’ on exhausting days,” she laughed. (兼顾食堂的轮班工作、抚养两个青春期孩子和自己的学业，意味着她每晚只能靠4到5个小时的睡眠勉强支撑。她用一种特别的方式记录自己的进度：每通过一次模拟测验，就会在厨房的日历上画一颗金星。“在那些累到极致的日子里，正是这些星星在催着我‘坚持下去’。”她笑着说道。)”以及第四段中的“She’s now enrolled in online business courses. “My next goal is to manage a food-service team,” she declared. “This is just the beginning.” (她现在已经报名参加了在线商业课程。“我的下一个目标是管理一个餐饮服务团队，”她宣称，“这仅仅是个开始。”)”可知，玛丽亚既能坚持不懈地完成学业，又有明确的人生新目标，是一个执着且有抱负的人。故选B项。 C This is a story about two kinds of intelligence: artificial intelligence and emotional intelligence. How often do we hear these two terms together? But now SoftBank, a Japanese company, is using AI to create a tool known as SoftVoice. This tool adjusts (调整) the voices of angry customers so that call center employees can avoid dealing with trouble. The new tool, SoftVoice, will monitor callers’ voices in real time, detect if they become abusive (辱骂的), and change their tone (语气) of voice to make it easier on the employee’s ears. SoftBank insists it won’t change the words that customers say, but instead will do things like lowering an angry voice to make it less grating. SoftVoice supposedly won’t remove 100 percent of the angry tone, so that call center employees will know objectively that a customer is angry. But it will remove enough to remove any sign of abuse. As an added feature, the SoftVoice AI product will also detect if a customer’s abuse has gone on too long, and play an automated message that says: “We regret to inform you that we are going to discontinue our service.” Now, as much as this is an artificial intelligence development, it’s also a great example of using AI to increase emotional intelligence. And that’s what this AI product does: remove the expression of other people’s unhelpful emotions, making it easier for employees to do their jobs. The possibilities seem endless — and I admit, potentially worrying. Imagine a future where many people in the same conversation could use technology like SoftVoice in real time to change each other’s emotions — or even their word choice. Or imagine people using AI to change the tone of what they say. The tone sometimes determines the content; would companies be on the hook (担负责任) for an employee’s AI-driven promise to a customer if it slightly changed the meaning? Still, at least it sounds like it’s designed to improve people’s lives. 8. Why does SoftBank develop SoftVoice? A. To protect employees from angry customers. B. To simplify difficult work. C. To treat mental problems. D. To comfort customers. 9. What does the underlined word “grating” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hurried. B. Pleasant. C. Annoying. D. Understandable. 10. How does SoftVoice work? A. By giving staff advice. B. By recording conversations. C. By changing wrong words automatically. D. By detecting abuse and lessening its effects. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the use of SoftVoice? A. It will break promises. B. It will mainly be used in call centers. C. It may cause potential problems later. D. It may completely remove customers’ anger. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了日本公司软银公司（SoftBank）开发了一款名为SoftVoice的工具，该工具利用人工智能调整愤怒客户的语音，以减轻呼叫中心员工的工作压力，并探讨了这一技术可能带来的影响和潜在问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This tool adjusts (调整) the voices of angry customers so that call center employees can avoid dealing with trouble. (这个工具可以调整愤怒客户的语音，这样呼叫中心的员工就可以避免处理麻烦。)”可知，软银开发SoftVoice是为了保护员工免受愤怒客户的困扰。故选A项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上一句“The new tool, SoftVoice, will monitor callers’ voices in real time, detect if they become abusive (辱骂的), and change their tone (语气) of voice to make it easier on the employee’s ears. (这款名为SoftVoice的新工具将实时监控来电者的声音，检测他们是否变得辱骂，并改变他们的语气，让员工听起来更舒服。)”以及划线词所在句“SoftBank insists it won’t change the words that customers say, but instead will do things like lowering an angry voice to make it less grating. (软银坚持认为，它不会改变客户所说的话，而是会做一些事情，比如降低愤怒的声音，使其不那么grating。)”可知，SoftVoice这款新工具会降低愤怒的声音，使其不那么令人恼火，从而让员工听起来更舒服。由此可知，划线词在此应为 “令人厌烦的，刺耳的”之意，与“Annoying (令人恼火的)”意思接近。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The new tool, SoftVoice, will monitor callers’ voices in real time, detect if they become abusive (辱骂的), and change their tone (语气) of voice to make it easier on the employee’s ears. (这款名为SoftVoice的新工具将实时监控来电者的声音，检测他们是否变得辱骂，并改变他们的语气，让员工听起来更舒服。)”以及第四段中的“SoftVoice supposedly won’t remove 100 percent of the angry tone, so that call center employees will know objectively that a customer is angry. But it will remove enough to remove any sign of abuse. (SoftVoice据称不会100%消除愤怒的语气，这样呼叫中心的员工就能客观地知道客户在生气。但它会消除足够的辱骂迹象。)”可知，SoftVoice的工作原理是实时监测呼叫者声音，检测是否存在辱骂行为，并通过调整语气减轻辱骂带来的不良影响。故选D项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The tone sometimes determines the content; would companies be on the hook (担负责任) for an employee’s AI-driven promise to a customer if it slightly changed the meaning? Still, at least it sounds like it’s designed to improve people’s lives. (语气有时决定内容；如果员工对客户的承诺因人工智能而略有改变，公司是否要承担责任？尽管如此，至少听起来它是为了改善人们的生活而设计的。)”可推知，作者认为SoftVoice的使用可能会在以后引起潜在的问题。故选C项。 D In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses (一瞥) into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gestures are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly follows his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a reaction! Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking (舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack. Cat owners also misunderstand their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time. At some point you’ve probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly, avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning (打哈欠). A yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking — when there isn’t food around to bring about it — is another sign of threat. You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you’re away. But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety. Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners. 12. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take? A. It follows his tail. B. It barks constantly. C. It licks its owner’s face. D. It keeps rolling around. 13. What do we learn about the gesture of a cat’s constant kisses? A. It feels anxious. B. It feels excited. C. It feels annoyed. D. It feels entertained. 14. What does it reveal when the dog sits for a long time without moving? A. The dog is tired. B. The dog is embarrassed. C. The dog is bored to play with you. D. The dog is eager to see your return. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Why Your Pets Are Lovely Animals B. Why Odd Gestures Can Attract You C. What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You D. What Should We Do With Our Pets 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了宠物一些奇怪行为背后所传达的信息和意图。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack.(当然，你的狗爱你，但这并不是它舔你脸的原因。小狗学会舔妈妈的嘴来获取一点食物，所以Spot并不是我们所说的那样在亲吻你；它只是想要零食。)”可知，如果狗想吃食物，它会舔主人的脸。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time.(判断它的舔舐是否与压力有关的一种方法是看它是否持续很长时间。)”可知，如果猫不停地舔舐，可能是因为它感到焦虑。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety.(但现实是，它很可能只是在一个地方坐了几个小时，焦急地等你回来。)”可知，当狗长时间坐着不动时，它可能是在焦急地等你回来。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets.(这些对我们来说可能看起来奇怪或不寻常的姿势，实际上是对我们宠物独特行为和交流方式的迷人一瞥。)”可知，文章主要讲述了宠物一些奇怪行为背后所传达的信息和意图，所以C项“What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You(你的宠物想告诉你什么)”是最佳标题。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。 People set goals for their lives. Perhaps you want to lose weight, learn a new skill or read 30 books a year. But then you get busy and your daily life takes up all of your time. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by and you are no closer to your goal. ____16____ Make a specific plan Adding details to your plan helps you act better. Be sure to add when and where. If your goal is to work out five days each week, a plan like “I’ll work out on weekdays” would be too vague. But a detailed plan like “I’ll exercise at the gym on weekdays during my lunch break” would fit the bill. ____17____ For example, if you plan to work out during lunch, you’ll be sure to refuse a lunch invitation from others. Consider punishment This may sound difficult, but ensuring you’ll face some punishment if you don’t achieve your goal can work wonders. One easy way to do this is to tell a few people about your goal. You’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. Feeling ashamed is a kind of spiritual punishment. You can also make a bet with a friend that you’ll stick to your goal. ____18____ Make it fun Most of us concentrate on the final result when it comes to achieving our goals. ____19____ Are you enjoying the process of pursuing your goal? If it’s not fun to exercise or study, you’re unlikely to keep at it. But if you get pleasure from your works or study sessions, you’ll persist longer. It’s the pursuit of your goals-not the reaching of them-that makes up the weeks, days and hours of our lives. So make sure to have fun along the way! Get a little help from your friends Spending time around high achievers can boost your own performance. If your aim is to run a marathon or write a book, you’d be wise to start hanging around friends who’ve made it to the finish line and can show you how it’s done. You’ll learn a lot just by spending time together with these friends. ____20____ Giving someone else tips on how to achieve boosts your self-confidence and motivates you to achieve success. A. Who could you turn to for help? B. It can also help you avoid breaking your routine. C. If you want to stick to it try the following strategies. D. Friends are well aware of your strengths and weaknesses. E. There is evidence that cash punishment motivates success. F. Advising friends with shared goals can improve your success rate, too. G. But focusing too much on it can make us ignore an even more important thing. 【答案】16. C 17. B 18. E 19. G 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍几种实现人生目标的实用策略，助力人们克服忙碌阻碍，坚持达成既定目标。 【16题详解】 根据空前的“People set goals for their lives. Perhaps you want to lose weight, learn a new skill or read 30 books a year. But then you get busy and your daily life takes up all of your time. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by and you are no closer to your goal. (人们会为自己的人生设定目标。或许你想要减肥、学习一项新技能或是一年读30本书。但之后你变得忙碌，日常生活占据了你所有的时间。不知不觉中，几周、几个月过去了，你离自己的目标却一点也没有靠近。)”可知，人们会设定目标，但却可能没有坚持目标，此空应引出下文能帮助人们坚持目标的方法策略，C选项“If you want to stick to it, try the following strategies. (如果你想要坚持下去，可以尝试以下这些策略。)”中的it指代前文的goal，承接前文的困境，引出下文的具体方法，符合语境。故选C项。 【17题详解】 根据空前的主题句“Make a specific plan (制定具体的计划)”以及“But a detailed plan like “I’ll exercise at the gym on weekdays during my lunch break” would fit the bill. (但“我要在工作日的午休时间去健身房锻炼”这样详细的计划就十分合适。)”以及空后的“For example, if you plan to work out during lunch, you’ll be sure to refuse a lunch invitation from others. (比如，如果你计划在午休时锻炼，你就一定会拒绝别人的午餐邀请。)”可知，此空应说明具体计划能帮助人们不打乱自己的安排，B选项“It can also help you avoid breaking your routine. (它还能帮你避免打乱自己的日常安排。)”中的it指代前文的detailed plan，衔接前后文内容，符合语境。故选B项。 【18题详解】 根据空前主题句“Consider punishment (考虑设置惩罚机制)”以及“This may sound difficult, but ensuring you’ll face some punishment if you don’t achieve your goal can work wonders. One easy way to do this is to tell a few people about your goal. You’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. Feeling ashamed is a kind of spiritual punishment. You can also make a bet with a friend that you’ll stick to your goal. (这听起来可能有些困难，但确保自己如果没达成目标就会面临一些惩罚，能起到意想不到的效果。一个简单的方法就是把你的目标告诉几个人。如果之后他们询问进展，却发现你根本没有坚持下去，你会感到羞愧。羞愧感就是一种精神层面的惩罚。你也可以和朋友打赌，自己一定会坚持目标。)”可知，本段介绍的是设置惩罚机制，此空应承接前文的惩罚机制，说明金钱惩罚的作用，E选项“There is evidence that cash punishment motivates success. (有证据表明，金钱方面的惩罚能激励人走向成功。)”承接前文的打赌这一惩罚方式，符合语境。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据空前的主题句“Make it fun (让过程变得有趣)”以及“Most of us concentrate on the final result when it comes to achieving our goals. (说到实现目标，我们大多数人都会把注意力集中在最终结果上。)”以及空后的“Are you enjoying the process of pursuing you goal? If it’s not fun you won’t keep at it. But if you get pleasure from your works or study sessions, you’ll persist longer. It’s the pursuit of your goals-not the reaching of them-that makes up the weeks, days and hours of our lives. So make sure to have fun along the way! (你是否在享受追逐目标的过程？如果这个过程毫无乐趣，你就很难坚持下去。但如果你能从工作或学习中获得乐趣，你就能坚持更久。正是对目标的追逐——而非目标的达成，构成了我们生命中的一周又一周、一天又一天、一小时又一小时。所以一定要确保在这个过程中获得乐趣！)”可知，本段介绍的是乐趣更重要，G选项“But focusing too much on it can make us ignore an even more important thing. (但过度关注它，会让我们忽略一件更为重要的事。)”与空前内容为转折关系，且其中的it指代前文的the final result，且与后文的过程相呼应，符合语境。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据空前的主题句“Get a little help from your friends (向朋友寻求一点帮助)”以及“Spending time around high achievers can boost your own performance. If your aim is to run a marathon or write a book, you’d be wise to start hanging around friends who’ve made it to the finish line and can show you how it’s done. You’ll learn a lot just by spending time together with these friends. (多和成功人士待在一起，能提升你自己的表现。如果你的目标是跑一场马拉松或是写一本书，那么明智的做法就是多和那些已经达成目标的朋友来往，他们可以教你具体该怎么做。仅仅是和这些朋友相处，你就能学到很多东西。)”以及空后的“Giving someone else tips on how to achieve boosts your self-confidence and motivates you to achieve success. (给别人提供实现目标的建议，能增强你的自信心，还能激励你自己取得成功。)”可知，此空应说明给有共同目标的朋友提建议也能提高自己的成功率，F选项“Advising friends with shared goals can improve your success rate, too. (给有着共同目标的朋友提供建议，也能提高你的成功率。)”衔接前后文内容，符合语境。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用 (共三节，满分35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。 Years ago, as a shy and uncertain post-graduate, I took a decent job but felt like wearing ill-fitting shoes.

Julia Cameron, its creator, believes we all ____24____ an inner creativity; we just block ourselves from that urge. The path she lays out is simple yet requires ____25____. There are weekly readings. For months, I'd discuss with members about our reading and ____26____ our progress, frustrations, and aha moments.

Work in this small mid-western community was almost as slow as his old car, and he didn’t know whether to look for it or not. Ever since the factory closed, he’d been unemployed, and with winter coming on, the cold had finally hit home. It was starting to get dark and light snow was coming down. He’d better get a move on. Then he saw an old lady trapped on the side of the road. But even in the dim (昏暗的) light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her car and got out. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe and seemed jobless. He looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. He said, “I’m here to help you, Ma’ am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan. ” The lady felt a little relieved after hearing what Bryan said. She got in her car and thought maybe he was helping for money. Bryan found all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. He crawled (爬) under the car looking for a place to put the jack (千斤顶) , cutting his finger a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands were hurt. As he was doing the work, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 She expressed her gratitude for his coming to her aid. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before she drove off, the old lady handed him a small piece of paper with her phone number and address. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 She expressed her gratitude for his coming to her aid. The old lady felt so warm in her inner heart as she watched Bryan, a stranger, selflessly change her flat tire in the cold. “You’ve been a blessing today, Bryan, ” she said. Bryan just smiled, saying it was nothing. She asked him how much she owed him. Any amount would have been all right with her. She had already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped. But he simply declined and then the car could start again. Before she drove off, the old lady handed him a small piece of paper with her phone number and address. It read, “If you’re ever in St. Louis, come to me. Maybe I can help you. ” Bryan smiled, feeling a warmth that transcended the cold evening. As he watched her car disappear into the distance, he realized that sometimes, the simple act of helping others can light up not just their day, but also one’s own heart. He headed home, determined to keep looking for work, knowing that kindness always finds a way. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了一个年轻的失业男子在傍晚驾车回家的路上，遇到了一位困在路边的老太太。尽管他看起来并不富裕，也可能因此让人感到不安，但他仍然选择停下来帮助她。他发现老太太的车胎瘪了，于是爬到车底，费了一些周折（还弄伤了手指）后成功为她换了胎。在这个过程中，老太太开始与他交谈，告诉他自己只是路过此地。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“她对他前来相助表示感激。”可知，第一段可描写老太太想要答谢却被拒绝的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“在她驱车离开前，老太太递给他一张小纸条，上面写着她的电话号码和地址。”可知，第二段可描写纸条上的内容和Bryan的感悟。 2.续写线索：想要答谢——被拒绝——承诺帮忙——感到温暖——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①观看：watch/view ②想象：imagine/visualize ③发生：happen/take place ④帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①糟糕的：awful/terrible ②无私地：selflessly/impartially 【点睛】[高分句型1] She had already imagined all the awful things that could have happened had he not stopped.（运用了that引导定语从句） [高分句型2] As he watched her car disappear into the distance, he realized that sometimes, the simple act of helping others can light up not just their day, but also one’s own heart.（运用了as引导时间状语从句，that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 南航苏州附中2025-2026学年第一学期高二 (星湖) 十二月阳光限时训练 英语 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.

B Maria Rodriguez, our school cafeteria server for ten years, always greeted us with a warm smile while preparing meals. One Monday, however, I noticed her quietly wiping tears in the corner of the staff room. My first thought was that she might be facing personal hardships — until I saw her gently holding a framed certificate and whispering, “I did it finally.” Her tears, I soon realized, were of overwhelming pride. At 42, Maria had just earned her high school diploma (文凭). Struggling with hearing loss since childhood, Maria dropped out at 15 to support her sick parents. She worked multiple low-income jobs until securing stable work in our school cafeteria. Last year, when the school introduced a new digital ordering system, Maria’s supervisor gently explained that operating it required basic computer literacy — which in turn required a high school credential. “We’ll keep your position,” he said, “but to continue long-term, you’ll need to complete your diploma within two years.” Maria enrolled in night classes at a local adult education center. Balancing her cafeteria shifts, parenting two teenagers, and studying meant surviving on 4-5 hours of sleep nightly. She tracked her progress uniquely: every passed practice test earned a gold star on her kitchen calendar. “Those stars shouted ‘Keep going!’ on exhausting days,” she laughed. Her biology teacher remarked, “Maria often stayed after class to review materials — her determination was extraordinary.” When Maria received her diploma last month, she called it “a key opening doors I thought were sealed forever.” But for her, graduation isn’t an endpoint — it’s a starting point. She’s now enrolled in online business courses. “My next goal is to manage a food-service team,” she declared. “This is just the beginning.” 4. Why was Maria crying in the staff room? A. She felt exhausted from overwork. B. She recalled her family difficulties. C. She had achieved an important milestone. D. Her supervisor criticized her performance. 5. How did Maria motivate herself during tough times? A By prioritizing sleep over studying. B. By reducing her workload significantly. C. By focusing on small symbols of progress. D. By seeking financial support from the school. 6. What does Maria mean by calling her diploma “a key opening doors I thought were sealed forever”? A. The diploma has brought her immediate wealth. B. The diploma has made her lose some important relationships. C. The diploma has allowed her to unlock physical doors in the school. D. The diploma has opened up new opportunities she once thought were impossible. 7. Which of the following best describes Maria’s character? A. Brave and determined. B. Persistent and ambitious. C. Careful and responsible. D. Timid and easily discouraged. C This is a story about two kinds of intelligence: artificial intelligence and emotional intelligence. How often do we hear these two terms together? But now SoftBank, a Japanese company, is using AI to create a tool known as SoftVoice. This tool adjusts (调整) the voices of angry customers so that call center employees can avoid dealing with trouble. The new tool, SoftVoice, will monitor callers’ voices in real time, detect if they become abusive (辱骂的), and change their tone (语气) of voice to make it easier on the employee’s ears. SoftBank insists it won’t change the words that customers say, but instead will do things like lowering an angry voice to make it less grating. SoftVoice supposedly won’t remove 100 percent of the angry tone, so that call center employees will know objectively that a customer is angry. But it will remove enough to remove any sign of abuse. As an added feature, the SoftVoice AI product will also detect if a customer’s abuse has gone on too long, and play an automated message that says: “We regret to inform you that we are going to discontinue our service.” Now, as much as this is an artificial intelligence development, it’s also a great example of using AI to increase emotional intelligence. And that’s what this AI product does: remove the expression of other people’s unhelpful emotions, making it easier for employees to do their jobs. The possibilities seem endless — and I admit, potentially worrying. Imagine a future where many people in the same conversation could use technology like SoftVoice in real time to change each other’s emotions — or even their word choice. Or imagine people using AI to change the tone of what they say. The tone sometimes determines the content; would companies be on the hook (担负责任) for an employee’s AI-driven promise to a customer if it slightly changed the meaning? Still, at least it sounds like it’s designed to improve people’s lives. 8. Why does SoftBank develop SoftVoice? A. To protect employees from angry customers. B. To simplify difficult work. C. To treat mental problems. D. To comfort customers. 9. What does the underlined word “grating” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Hurried. B. Pleasant. C. Annoying. D. Understandable. 10. How does SoftVoice work? A. By giving staff advice. B. By recording conversations. C. By changing wrong words automatically. D. By detecting abuse and lessening its effects. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph about the use of SoftVoice? A. It will break promises. B. It will mainly be used in call centers. C. It may cause potential problems later. D. It may completely remove customers’ anger. D In the vast and diverse world of animals, there exists odd gestures that often leave us humans puzzled and amazed. These gestures, which may seem strange or unusual to us, are actually fascinating glimpses (一瞥) into the unique behaviors and communication styles of our pets. Animals want our attention, and sometimes they’re quite obvious about asking for it. Odd gestures are often our pets’ way of telling us to stop what we’re doing and play with them. It’s why Fido constantly follows his tail and why Kitty keeps rolling around. An extremely bored pet may choose “bad” behaviors to cause a reaction! Sure, your dog loves you, but that’s not why he’s licking (舔) your face. A little dog learns to lick his mother’s mouth to obtain a little food, so Spot isn’t kissing you in our sense of the word; he just wants a snack. Cat owners also misunderstand their pets’ kisses. While a cat might lick you to show love, sometimes she’ll do it to comfort herself. One way to tell if her licking is stress-related is whether it goes on for a long period of time. At some point you’ve probably told these words to someone who made you angry. Dogs think similarly, avoiding eye contact with anyone who injures their feelings. Another sign of anger: yawning (打哈欠). A yawning dog may not be tired but anxious, not bored but stressed. Similarly, lip-licking — when there isn’t food around to bring about it — is another sign of threat. You might think your dog is running around the backyard, having the time of his life while you’re away. But the reality is that he’s most likely just sitting in one spot for hours, waiting for you to return with anxiety. Dogs actually prefer to be inside, ideally with their owners. 12. If a dog intends to eat food, which action will it take? A. It follows his tail. B. It barks constantly. C. It licks its owner’s face. D. It keeps rolling around. 13. What do we learn about the gesture of a cat’s constant kisses? A. It feels anxious. B. It feels excited. C. It feels annoyed. D. It feels entertained. 14. What does it reveal when the dog sits for a long time without moving? A. The dog is tired. B. The dog is embarrassed. C. The dog is bored to play with you. D. The dog is eager to see your return. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Why Your Pets Are Lovely Animals B. Why Odd Gestures Can Attract You C. What Your Pet Is Trying to Tell You D. What Should We Do With Our Pets 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。 People set goals for their lives. Perhaps you want to lose weight, learn a new skill or read 30 books a year. But then you get busy and your daily life takes up all of your time. Before you know it, weeks, then months have gone by and you are no closer to your goal. ____16____ Make a specific plan Adding details to your plan helps you act better. Be sure to add when and where. If your goal is to work out five days each week, a plan like “I’ll work out on weekdays” would be too vague. But a detailed plan like “I’ll exercise at the gym on weekdays during my lunch break” would fit the bill. ____17____ For example, if you plan to work out during lunch, you’ll be sure to refuse a lunch invitation from others. Consider punishment This may sound difficult, but ensuring you’ll face some punishment if you don’t achieve your goal can work wonders. One easy way to do this is to tell a few people about your goal. You’ll feel ashamed if they check back later and find out you haven’t followed through. Feeling ashamed is a kind of spiritual punishment. You can also make a bet with a friend that you’ll stick to your goal. ____18____ Make it fun Most of us concentrate on the final result when it comes to achieving our goals. ____19____ Are you enjoying the process of pursuing your goal? If it’s not fun to exercise or study, you’re unlikely to keep at it. But if you get pleasure from your works or study sessions, you’ll persist longer. It’s the pursuit of your goals-not the reaching of them-that makes up the weeks, days and hours of our lives. So make sure to have fun along the way! Get a little help from your friends Spending time around high achievers can boost your own performance. If your aim is to run a marathon or write a book, you’d be wise to start hanging around friends who’ve made it to the finish line and can show you how it’s done. You’ll learn a lot just by spending time together with these friends. ____20____ Giving someone else tips on how to achieve boosts your self-confidence and motivates you to achieve success. A. Who could you turn to for help? B. It can also help you avoid breaking your routine. C. If you want to stick to it, try the following strategies. D. Friends are well aware of your strengths and weaknesses. E. There is evidence that cash punishment motivates success. F. Advising friends with shared goals can improve your success rate, too. G. But focusing too much on it can make us ignore an even more important thing. 第三部分 语言运用 (共三节，满分35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。 Years ago, as a shy and uncertain post-graduate, I took a decent job but felt like wearing ill-fitting shoes.

Work in this small mid-western community was almost as slow as his old car, and he didn’t know whether to look for it or not. Ever since the factory closed, he’d been unemployed, and with winter coming on, the cold had finally hit home. It was starting to get dark and light snow was coming down. He’d better get a move on. Then he saw an old lady trapped on the side of the road. But even in the dim (昏暗的) light of day, he could see she needed help. So he pulled up in front of her car and got out. Even with the smile on his face, she was worried. No one had stopped to help for the last hour or so. Was he going to hurt her? He didn’t look safe and seemed jobless. He looked poor and hungry. He could see that she was frightened, standing out there in the cold. He knew how she felt. He said, “I’m here to help you, Ma’ am. Why don’t you wait in the car where it’s warm? By the way, my name is Bryan. ” The lady felt a little relieved after hearing what Bryan said. She got in her car and thought maybe he was helping for money. Bryan found all she had was a flat tire, but for an old lady, that was bad enough. He crawled (爬) under the car looking for a place to put the jack (千斤顶) , cutting his finger a time or two. Soon he was able to change the tire. But he had to get dirty and his hands were hurt. As he was doing the work, she rolled down the window and began to talk to him. She told him that she was from St. Louis and was only just passing through. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 She expressed her gratitude for his coming to her aid. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Before she drove off, the old lady handed him a small piece of paper with her phone number and address. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
