By dividing the workload into individual pages, many proofreading volunteers can work on a book online at the same time, which greatly speeds up the transition process. During proofreading, volunteers are presented with a scanned page image and related texts on a single web page. This allows the text to be easily compared to the image, and proofread. Next, a second volunteer is presented with the first volunteer’s work and the same page image, checks and corrects the work as necessary. After that, the book will similarly progress through a third proofreading round and two formatting rounds using the same web interface, so that it can be submitted back to the central site. Once all the pages have completed these steps, a post-processor carefully assembles them into an e-book, optionally makes it available to interested parties for “smooth reading”. By the way, every joiner will receive the published works for free in the end. How You Can Help ■ Register with the site as a proofreading volunteer ■ Donate to the Distributed Proofreaders Foundation. Registered volunteers may contribute to Distributed Proofreaders in several ways including proofreading “smooth reading” pre-released e-books to check for errors, managing projects, providing book-lists, or even helping develop improvements to the site. Volunteers may also join other members of our community in our forums to discuss these and many other topics. Volunteering at Distributed Proofreaders It’s easy to volunteer at Distributed Proofreaders. Simply register as a volunteer. There is no commitment expected on this site beyond the understanding that you do your best. Spend as much or as little time as you like. We encourage you to proofread at least a page a day and/or smooth read a book as often as your time list allows, but it’s entirely up to you. We hope you will join us in our mission of “preserving the literary history of the world in a freely available form for everyone to use.” We are not in a position to provide volunteering certification for Distributed Proofreaders to track the number of hours spent volunteering, or to provide verification (验证) of a user’s identity beyond that provided by their email address, or to certify that the volunteer personally performed the work. Our community of proofreaders, project managers, developers, etc. is composed entirely of volunteers. 36. During proofreading, proofreaders can ________. A. assemble the work into an e-book B. compare the images and proofread C. divide the book into individual images D. submit the work back to the site directly 37. What is implied about the “smooth reading” stage? A. It is a required step for all volunteers before publication. B. It aims to detect remaining errors by offering pre-released books. C. It requires readers to compare the text with scanned images closely. D. It is only available to those who donate money to the foundation. 38. According to the passage, registered volunteers can ________. A. get the site improved B. help check booklists C. join in community projects D. publish the pre-released books 39. As a volunteer here, you can get ________. A. released books B. detailed time list C. employment verification D. volunteering certification 40. What is the attitude of the organization towards potential volunteers? A. They are skeptical of those who cannot commit much time. B. They emphasize formal qualifications and prior experience C. They welcome anyone willing to contribute within their capacity. D. They prioritize volunteers who can participate in forum discussions. B The first science project I ever did was in fifth grade with my partner, Delaney. We looked online together for ideas and came up with an experiment to slide glass balls down a slope covered with different-textured materials. Our project was torn to pieces by our teacher. Our procedure wasn’t thorough. She told us we should consider waiting another year to enter the science fair. I felt so discouraged. That night, I folded up our poster and started thinking about all of the things I could do differently the next year. I wanted to find a topic I cared about, one that interested me. As a beginner of the piano, I was curious about how the piano I practiced on for five hours every week could make the sounds that it did. I learned about something called “sympathetic resonance,” a phenomenon that allows string to vibrate (振动) together when played. I built my next project around this and ended up getting first place at the science fair the following year. Today, I am 32 years old, a climate scientist. In the decade since I did my very first science project, I have wondered a lot about what it takes to be a good scientist. To me, what makes a truly good scientist is what makes a good person. A good scientist has patience — patience for others, patience for herself or himself, and patience when things go wrong. A few years ago. I had the opportunity to work on a NASA asteroid-sample (小行星样本) retrieval mission called OSIRIS-Rex. The spacecraft launched in September 2016, headed to the asteroid Bennu. Late last year, finally, it reached its destination. In four years, OSIRIS-Rex will bring a piece of the asteroid back to earth so that scientists can learn more about it. Scientific discoveries do not take place overnight, and many are small and gradual. Missions like the one I worked on often take years to complete. Success almost never comes quickly or easily. A good scientist is open-minded. It can be easy to ignore people you disagree with or to assume the worst about them. But we should be open to ideas that are not what we expected when we set out. We should take the time to consider other people’s opinions, even when they conflict with our own. There is so much we don’t know, but we do know some things. We live in a world where knowledge and uncertainty can and do coexist. As scientists, we should have both confidence in ourselves and humility as we move through our lives. Of course, good scientists are driven by curiosity. But curiosity does not have to be limited to science. When we are curious about other people, we can become more considerate. When we are curious about other perspectives, we can become more understanding. After all, it costs nothing to be kind to someone — at school, at the grocery store, with your friends, with your family. A kind gesture can make someone’s day, even save someone’s life. You never know what people are going through unless you take the time to find out. Curiosity is not and never will be something to be ashamed of. Curiosity is our superpower. But it’s also what makes us human. All we have to do is ask. 41. What can we infer about the author’s fifth-grade science project? A. I was highly praised for its creative design ideas. B. It failed due to a lack of detailed planning steps. C. It was completed independently without any help. D. It focused on the physics of musical instruments. 42 What does the author’s experience with the OSIRIS-Rex mission mainly illustrate? A. Space exploration requires international cooperation. B. Asteroid research is the most important field in science. C. NASA projects are always successful in the first attempt. D. Scientific achievements often demand long-term efforts. 43. According to the author, what should a good scientist do when facing conflicting opinions? A. Ignore those who disagree to avoid wasting valuable time. B. Stick firmly to their own views because they are usually correct. C. Take time to consider other perspectives even if they differ. D Only accept opinions from experts in the same field of study. 44. Which conclusion can be drawn about the author’s view on curiosity? A. It should be prioritized to professional scientific research. B. It occasionally leads to unnecessary conflicts in daily life. C. It helps improve interpersonal relationships and empathy. D. It is more fundamental for scientists than for other people. 45. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To evaluate the effect of a science project. B. To analyze the personalities of a scientist. C. To clarify the consequence of an experiment. D. To compare some approaches to being a scientist. C If a diver surfaces too quickly, he may suffer the bends. Nitrogen (氮) dissolved in his blood is suddenly liberated by the reduction of pressure. The consequence, if the bubbles (气泡) accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent body — thus the name. If the bubbles form in his lungs or his brain, the consequence can be death. Other air-breathing animals also suffer this decompression (减压) sickness if they surface too fast: whales, for example. And so, long ago, did ichthyosaurs. That these ancient sea animals got the bends can be seen from their bones. If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply. This kills the cells in the bone, and consequently weakens it, sometimes to the point of collapse. Fossil (化石) bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends. Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study of ichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past. What he particularly wanted to. investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years. To this end, he and his colleagues traveled the world’s natural-history museums, looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic (三叠纪) period and from the later Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. More than 15% of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered the bends before they died, but not a single Triassic specimen (标本) showed evidence of that sort of injury. If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quickly — and, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr. Rothschild thinks happened. He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change. Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape a predator (捕食动物) such as a large shark. One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of large sharks and crocodiles, both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches. Triassic oceans, by contrast, were mercifully shark-and crocodile-free. In the Triassic, then, ichthyosaurs were top of the food chain. In the Jurassic and Cretaceous, they were prey (猎物) as well as predator — and often had to make a speedy exit as a result. 46. Which of the following is a typical symptom of the bends? A. A twisted body. B. A gradual decrease in blood supply. C. A sudden release of nitrogen in blood. D. A drop in blood pressure. 47. The purpose of Rothschild’s study is to see ________. A. how often ichthyosaurs caught the bends B. how ichthyosaurs adapted to decompression C. why ichthyosaurs bent their bodies D. when ichthyosaurs broke their bones 48. Rothschild’s finding stated in Paragraph 4 ________. A. confirmed his assumption B. speeded up his research process C. disagreed with his assumption D. changed his research objectives 49. According to Dr. Rothschild, why might later ichthyosaurs have suffered more from the bends? A. They had evolved a weaker ability to handle deep-water pressure. B. They spent more time in shallow waters where pressure changed. C They were often forced to surface quickly to escape predators. D. They consumed more nitrogen-rich prey than earlier species. 50. Rothschild might have concluded that ichthyosaurs ________. A. failed to evolve an anti-decompression means B. gradually developed measures against the bends C. died out because of large sharks and crocodiles D. evolved an anti-decompression means but soon lost it D In the early 1900s, French chemist, Edouard Benedictus, invented shatterproof (防碎的) glass by chance. But its significance and relevance didn’t emerge until the car market created the problem for which he had already found the answer. Such moments of serendipity reveal the unpredictable nature of innovation. Yet, even in cases where chance plays a role, as in Benedictus’s story, the broader question remains: Are such discoveries truly born of luck, or were they somehow “in the air,” waiting for the right person to seize them? Some argue all the discoveries would have been made by other people. They believe if the time was ripe in conceptual and technological terms, someone would have got there sooner or later. This is the used and abused understanding of theories that were “in the air”. Independently, Charles Darwin and Alfred R. Wallace (the latter 15 years behind Darwin) arrived at the theory of evolution by natural selection, both counting on similar data. There existed slight differences in the theory, but the coincidences of thought were astonishing. This phenomenon, which also exists in biological evolution, is called convergence: two non-closely related species develop similar functional adaptations. This occurs because the environment poses similar survival problems to both, namely similar selective pressures. This is an important clue that can help explain why this also exists in scientific knowledge: There are similar selective pressures and different research groups that compete to come up with the solutions. If we analyze the steps undertaken that led to the result, we can see that there were in fact some accidental elements. The overall interaction was not accidental, though. Yet is it really possible that all discoveries were in the air? Let us assume for a moment that this is true and that the most luck can do is speed up the unavoidable. All scientists are standing on the shoulders of the giants who have gone before them, and there is objectively accumulative (积累的) element in science. Nevertheless, at some point and in the right circumstances, it was the unknown scientists, not the giants, who managed to see a little farther. The mind of the giant was imprisoned by prior knowledge and so trapped within the framework of established habits, research questions, and established methods. The new, little-known scientist, on the other hand, will in one way or another have been able to break free of the chains of established knowledge. And so it will have been possible for them to imagine other worlds. This suggests that it will be innovators, with their prepared minds, who have a better chance of making accidental discoveries, namely that are irregular and unexpected. 51. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “serendipity” refers to ________. A. chemical innovation B. emergence of problems C. late recognition D. accidental invention 52. The example of Darwin and Wallace is given to illustrate ________. A. the fierce competition among biological scientists B. the important role of similar data in intentional research C. independent but similar solutions under shared pressures D. limited resources and technological dependency in science 53. According to the passage, what does the phrase “in the air” suggest about scientific discoveries? A. They depend entirely on individual genius. B. They are hidden from most researchers. C. They require advanced technology to emerge. D. They are often predictable and unavoidable. 54. According to the passage, why might “unknown scientists” make breakthroughs? A. They have access to better resources and equipment. B. They are less restricted by prior established knowledge. C. They receive more support from scientific community. D. They focus on solving practical rather than theoretical problems. 55. Which statement best reflects the main idea of the passage? A. Breakthroughs arise when ready thinkers meet opportunities. B. All discoveries are unavoidable results of technological progress. C. Accidental breakthroughs lead to major scientific advancements. D. Discoveries are either lucky breaks or the result of individual genius. 第II卷(共35分) 注意事项：用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能使用修改液。 第四部分：写作 第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题 I never realized how much public speaking would be part of a writer’s life. After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others. Then, just before the release of my fourth book, an invitation arrived for a literary festival. I assumed it would be a cozy on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed. The night before my session, an organizer walked me through the venue — a small tent set up in the town square. Another author was speaking, and I saw in horror that there was no interviewer, no table. Just one person standing alone, holding the attention of about eighty people. “How long does each talk last?” I managed to ask. “Around fifty minutes,” the organizer replied cheerfully. “We like to leave time for questions.” My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane — it was time to build a parachute. Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes, recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird. I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came. As I walked off the stage, the wave of nervous energy finally receding, I realized I had survived. My final conclusion: it had gone... okay. There were moments of laughter, moments of awkward silence. But the tent didn’t collapse, and I didn’t run offstage. There’s no secret to overcoming the fear of public speaking. You just have to do it — accept that you won’t be great at first, and trust that you’ll improve. After that festival, I had a basic speech structure, which I refined over time. The dread I once felt slowly transformed into a nervous energy that felt almost like excitement. Now, given the choice between a moderated interview (有主持人的访谈) and speaking solo for fifty minutes, I’d choose the latter. That way, I’m in control — not just of the words, but of the rhythm, the pauses, the connection. And that kind of control is a kind of freedom. 56. How did the author initially feel about his public speaking? (no more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the author agree to attend the literary festival at first? (no more than 15 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 58.

A. Situating B. Having situated C. Locating D. Located 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：位于澳大利亚东北海岸外的大堡礁，是地球上最大的生物。 空格处为非谓语动词作状语，逻辑主语是the Great Barrier Reef(大堡礁)。situate和locate表示“位于”时均为及物动词，需使用被动结构be situated off... 或be located off...，省略be动词，使用过去分词，作状语。故选D项 6. When he was a young boy, he __________ aeroplanes, riding in one for the first time at the age of 12.

A. which B. if C. as D. when 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查连接词词义辨析。句意：正如中国用户所排名的那样，社交媒体的四大负面影响分别是：阅读纸质书的时间减少、视力下降、隐私和信息安全担忧以及睡眠时间减少。A. which哪个；B. if如果；C. as正如；D. when当……的时候。由语意和句子结构可知，空格前后均为完整的句子（前半句主干：The top four negative aspects... are...；后半句主干：Chinese users ranked...），且后半句是对前半句内容的限定和说明，意为“正如中国用户所排名的那样”。as引导限制性定语从句时，可置于句中，指代整个主句内容，意为“正如”，符合句子结构和语义。故选C项。 9. __________ the detox now finished, the students have __________ their devices and they’re back online.

A. Lost B. Being lost C. Losing D. Having lost 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：被困在森林里一点也不好玩，而找到出路或许会很有意思。句子缺少主语，需用动名词形式作主语；“迷路”常用固定表达be lost，此处需用动名词的被动形式being lost作主语。故选B项。 11. — Where did you find such a nice card? — It’s in the shop __________ my mum works. A. that B. / C. which D. where 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：——你在哪里找到这么漂亮的卡片的？——在我妈妈工作的商店里。空处需用关系词引导定语从句，先行词是the shop，指地点，关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，所以空处需用关系副词where引导定语从句。故选D。 12.

By dividing the workload into individual pages, many proofreading volunteers can work on a book online at the same time, which greatly speeds up the transition process. During proofreading, volunteers are presented with a scanned page image and related texts on a single web page. This allows the text to be easily compared to the image, and proofread. Next, a second volunteer is presented with the first volunteer’s work and the same page image, checks and corrects the work as necessary. After that, the book will similarly progress through a third proofreading round and two formatting rounds using the same web interface, so that it can be submitted back to the central site. Once all the pages have completed these steps, a post-processor carefully assembles them into an e-book, optionally makes it available to interested parties for “smooth reading”. By the way, every joiner will receive the published works for free in the end. How You Can Help ■ Register with the site as a proofreading volunteer ■ Donate to the Distributed Proofreaders Foundation.

We looked online together for ideas and came up with an experiment to slide glass balls down a slope covered with different-textured materials. Our project was torn to pieces by our teacher. Our procedure wasn’t thorough. She told us we should consider waiting another year to enter the science fair. I felt so discouraged. That night, I folded up our poster and started thinking about all of the things I could do differently the next year. I wanted to find a topic I cared about, one that interested me. As a beginner of the piano, I was curious about how the piano I practiced on for five hours every week could make the sounds that it did. I learned about something called “sympathetic resonance,” a phenomenon that allows string to vibrate (振动) together when played. I built my next project around this and ended up getting first place at the science fair the following year. Today, I am 32 years old, a climate scientist. In the decade since I did my very first science project, I have wondered a lot about what it takes to be a good scientist. To me, what makes a truly good scientist is what makes a good person. A good scientist has patience — patience for others, patience for herself or himself, and patience when things go wrong. A few years ago. I had the opportunity to work on a NASA asteroid-sample (小行星样本) retrieval mission called OSIRIS-Rex. The spacecraft launched in September 2016, headed to the asteroid Bennu. Late last year, finally, it reached its destination. In four years, OSIRIS-Rex will bring a piece of the asteroid back to earth so that scientists can learn more about it. Scientific discoveries do not take place overnight, and many are small and gradual. Missions like the one I worked on often take years to complete. Success almost never comes quickly or easily. A good scientist is open-minded. It can be easy to ignore people you disagree with or to assume the worst about them. But we should be open to ideas that are not what we expected when we set out. We should take the time to consider other people’s opinions, even when they conflict with our own. There is so much we don’t know, but we do know some things. We live in a world where knowledge and uncertainty can and do coexist. As scientists, we should have both confidence in ourselves and humility as we move through our lives. Of course, good scientists are driven by curiosity. But curiosity does not have to be limited to science. When we are curious about other people, we can become more considerate. When we are curious about other perspectives, we can become more understanding. After all, it costs nothing to be kind to someone — at school, at the grocery store, with your friends, with your family. A kind gesture can make someone’s day, even save someone’s life. You never know what people are going through unless you take the time to find out. Curiosity is not and never will be something to be ashamed of. Curiosity is our superpower. But it’s also what makes us human. All we have to do is ask. 41. What can we infer about the author’s fifth-grade science project? A. I was highly praised for its creative design ideas. B. It failed due to a lack of detailed planning steps. C. It was completed independently without any help. D. It focused on the physics of musical instruments. 42. What does the author’s experience with the OSIRIS-Rex mission mainly illustrate? A. Space exploration requires international cooperation. B. Asteroid research is the most important field in science. C. NASA projects are always successful in the first attempt. D. Scientific achievements often demand long-term efforts. 43. According to the author, what should a good scientist do when facing conflicting opinions? A. Ignore those who disagree to avoid wasting valuable time. B. Stick firmly to their own views because they are usually correct. C. Take time to consider other perspectives even if they differ. D. Only accept opinions from experts in the same field of study. 44. Which conclusion can be drawn about the author’s view on curiosity? A. It should be prioritized to professional scientific research. B. It occasionally leads to unnecessary conflicts in daily life. C. It helps improve interpersonal relationships and empathy. D. It is more fundamental for scientists than for other people. 45. What is the main purpose of the passage? A.

To compare some approaches to being a scientist. 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. C 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述自己五年级科学项目失败的经历，以及后来在科学领域的探索和成长，阐述了成为一名优秀科学家所应具备的品质。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Our project was torn to pieces by our teacher. Our procedure wasn’t thorough. She told us we should consider waiting another year to enter the science fair. I felt so discouraged. (我们的项目被老师批得体无完肤。我们的步骤不彻底。她告诉我们应该考虑再等一年参加科学展览。我感到非常沮丧。)”可知，作者五年级的科学项目因为缺乏详细的规划步骤而失败了。故选B项。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“ In four years, OSIRIS-Rex will bring a piece of the asteroid back to earth so that scientists can learn more about it. Scientific discoveries do not take place overnight, and many are small and gradual. Missions like the one I worked on often take years to complete. Success almost never comes quickly or easily. (四年后，OSIRIS-Rex号将把一块小行星带回地球，这样科学家就可以更多地了解它。科学发现不是一蹴而就的，许多发现都是小而渐进的。像我所参与的任务通常需要数年才能完成。成功几乎不会来得很快或很容易。)”可知，作者通过参与OSIRIS-Rex任务的经历，主要说明了科学成就往往需要长期的努力。故选D项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“We should take the time to consider other people’s opinions, even when they conflict with our own. (我们应该花时间考虑别人的意见，即使它们与我们自己的意见相冲突。)”可知，当面对冲突的意见时，一个好的科学家应该花时间考虑其他观点，即使它们与自己的不同。故选C项。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“When we are curious about other people, we can become more considerate. When we are curious about other perspectives, we can become more understanding. (当我们对别人感到好奇时，我们会变得更加体贴。当我们对其他观点感到好奇时，我们会变得更加理解。)”可推知，作者认为好奇心有助于改善人际关系和增强同理心。故选C项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是第三段“To me, what makes a truly good scientist is what makes a good person. (对我来说，真正优秀的科学家所具备的品质也是成为一个好人所具备的品质。)”以及后文对耐心、思想开放和好奇心等品质的阐述可知，文章的主要目的是分析一个科学家所应具备的个性品质。故选B项。 C If a diver surfaces too quickly, he may suffer the bends. Nitrogen (氮) dissolved in his blood is suddenly liberated by the reduction of pressure. The consequence, if the bubbles (气泡) accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent body — thus the name. If the bubbles form in his lungs or his brain, the consequence can be death. Other air-breathing animals also suffer this decompression (减压) sickness if they surface too fast: whales, for example. And so, long ago, did ichthyosaurs. That these ancient sea animals got the bends can be seen from their bones. If bubbles of nitrogen form inside the bone they can cut off its blood supply. This kills the cells in the bone, and consequently weakens it, sometimes to the point of collapse. Fossil (化石) bones that have caved in on themselves are thus a sign that the animal once had the bends. Bruce Rothschild of the University of Kansas knew all this when he began a study of ichthyosaur bones to find out how widespread the problem was in the past. What he particularly wanted to. investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years. To this end, he and his colleagues traveled the world’s natural-history museums, looking at hundreds of ichthyosaurs from the Triassic (三叠纪) period and from the later Jurassic and Cretaceous periods. When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. More than 15% of Jurassic and Cretaceous ichthyosaurs had suffered the bends before they died, but not a single Triassic specimen (标本) showed evidence of that sort of injury. If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quickly — and, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr. Rothschild thinks happened. He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change. Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape a predator (捕食动物) such as a large shark. One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of large sharks and crocodiles, both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches. Triassic oceans, by contrast, were mercifully shark-and crocodile-free. In the Triassic, then, ichthyosaurs were top of the food chain. In the Jurassic and Cretaceous, they were prey (猎物) as well as predator — and often had to make a speedy exit as a result. 46. Which of the following is a typical symptom of the bends? A. A twisted body. B. A gradual decrease in blood supply. C. A sudden release of nitrogen in blood. D. A drop in blood pressure. 47. The purpose of Rothschild’s study is to see ________. A. how often ichthyosaurs caught the bends B. how ichthyosaurs adapted to decompression C. why ichthyosaurs bent their bodies D. when ichthyosaurs broke their bones 48. Rothschild’s finding stated in Paragraph 4 ________. A. confirmed his assumption B. speeded up his research process C. disagreed with his assumption D. changed his research objectives 49. According to Dr. Rothschild, why might later ichthyosaurs have suffered more from the bends? A. They had evolved a weaker ability to handle deep-water pressure. B. They spent more time in shallow waters where pressure changed. C. They were often forced to surface quickly to escape predators. D. They consumed more nitrogen-rich prey than earlier species. 50. Rothschild might have concluded that ichthyosaurs ________. A. failed to evolve an anti-decompression means B. gradually developed measures against the bends C. died out because of large sharks and crocodiles D. evolved an anti-decompression means but soon lost it 【答案】46. A 47. B 48. C 49. C 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过介绍潜水员因快速上浮而患减压病的现象，引出对古代海洋生物鱼龙是否也遭受类似病症的研究。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The consequence, if the bubbles (气泡) accumulate in a joint, is sharp pain and a bent body — thus the name. (如果气泡在关节处积聚，其后果是剧烈的疼痛和弯曲的身体——因此得名。)”可知，减压病的一个典型症状是弯曲的身体。故选A项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“What he particularly wanted to investigate was how ichthyosaurs adapted to the problem of decompression over the 150 million years. (他特别想研究的是鱼龙在1.5亿年间是如何适应减压问题的。)”可知，罗斯柴尔德的研究目的是了解鱼龙如何适应减压问题。故选B项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“When he started, he assumed that signs of the bends would be rarer in younger fossils, reflecting their gradual evolution of measures to deal with decompression. Instead, he was astonished to discover the opposite. (当他开始研究时，他假设减压病的迹象在较年轻的化石中会更少见，这反映了它们逐渐进化出应对减压的措施。然而，他惊讶地发现了相反的情况。)”可知，罗斯柴尔德的发现与他的假设不符。故选C项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Whales that suffer the bends often do so because they have surfaced to escape a predator (捕食动物) such as a large shark. One of the features of Jurassic oceans was an abundance of large sharks and crocodiles, both of which were fond of ichthyosaur lunches. Triassic oceans, by contrast, were mercifully shark-and crocodile-free. In the Triassic, then, ichthyosaurs were top of the food chain. In the Jurassic and Cretaceous, they were prey (猎物) as well as predator — and often had to make a speedy exit as a result. (患减压病的鲸鱼通常是因为它们浮出水面以逃避捕食者，如大型鲨鱼。侏罗纪海洋的一个特点是大型鲨鱼和鳄鱼数量众多，它们都喜欢以鱼龙为食。相比之下，三叠纪的海洋幸运地没有鲨鱼和鳄鱼。因此，在三叠纪，鱼龙是食物链的顶端。在侏罗纪和白垩纪，它们既是捕食者也是猎物——因此常常不得不迅速逃离。)”可知，罗斯柴尔德认为，后来的鱼龙之所以更多地遭受减压病，是因为它们常常被迫迅速浮出水面以逃避捕食者。故选C项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“If ichthyosaurs did evolve an anti-decompression means, they clearly did so quickly — and, most strangely, they lost it afterwards. But that is not what Dr. Rothschild thinks happened. He suspects it was evolution in other animals that caused the change. (如果鱼龙确实进化出了一种抗减压的手段，那么它们显然很快就做到了这一点——而且，最奇怪的是，它们后来又失去了这种手段。但罗斯柴尔德博士并不认为是这样。他怀疑是其他动物的进化导致了这种变化。)”以及最后一段的描述可知，罗斯柴尔德可能得出的结论是鱼龙未能进化出抗减压的手段，而是由于生态变化（如捕食者的增加）导致它们更多地遭受减压病。故选A项。 D In the early 1900s, French chemist, Edouard Benedictus, invented shatterproof (防碎的) glass by chance. But its significance and relevance didn’t emerge until the car market created the problem for which he had already found the answer. Such moments of serendipity reveal the unpredictable nature of innovation. Yet, even in cases where chance plays a role, as in Benedictus’s story, the broader question remains: Are such discoveries truly born of luck, or were they somehow “in the air,” waiting for the right person to seize them? Some argue all the discoveries would have been made by other people. They believe if the time was ripe in conceptual and technological terms, someone would have got there sooner or later. This is the used and abused understanding of theories that were “in the air”. Independently, Charles Darwin and Alfred R. Wallace (the latter 15 years behind Darwin) arrived at the theory of evolution by natural selection, both counting on similar data. There existed slight differences in the theory, but the coincidences of thought were astonishing. This phenomenon, which also exists in biological evolution, is called convergence: two non-closely related species develop similar functional adaptations. This occurs because the environment poses similar survival problems to both, namely similar selective pressures. This is an important clue that can help explain why this also exists in scientific knowledge: There are similar selective pressures and different research groups that compete to come up with the solutions. If we analyze the steps undertaken that led to the result, we can see that there were in fact some accidental elements. The overall interaction was not accidental, though. Yet is it really possible that all discoveries were in the air? Let us assume for a moment that this is true and that the most luck can do is speed up the unavoidable. All scientists are standing on the shoulders of the giants who have gone before them, and there is objectively accumulative (积累的) element in science. Nevertheless, at some point and in the right circumstances, it was the unknown scientists, not the giants, who managed to see a little farther. The mind of the giant was imprisoned by prior knowledge and so trapped within the framework of established habits, research questions, and established methods. The new, little-known scientist, on the other hand, will in one way or another have been able to break free of the chains of established knowledge. And so it will have been possible for them to imagine other worlds. This suggests that it will be innovators, with their prepared minds, who have a better chance of making accidental discoveries, namely that are irregular and unexpected. 51. In Paragraph 2, the underlined word “serendipity” refers to ________. A. chemical innovation B. emergence of problems C. late recognition D. accidental invention 52. The example of Darwin and Wallace is given to illustrate ________. A. the fierce competition among biological scientists B. the important role of similar data in intentional research C. independent but similar solutions under shared pressures D limited resources and technological dependency in science 53. According to the passage, what does the phrase “in the air” suggest about scientific discoveries? A. They depend entirely on individual genius. B. They are hidden from most researchers. C. They require advanced technology to emerge. D. They are often predictable and unavoidable. 54. According to the passage, why might “unknown scientists” make breakthroughs? A. They have access to better resources and equipment. B. They are less restricted by prior established knowledge. C. They receive more support from scientific community. D. They focus on solving practical rather than theoretical problems. 55. Which statement best reflects the main idea of the passage? A. Breakthroughs arise when ready thinkers meet opportunities. B. All discoveries are unavoidable results of technological progress. C. Accidental breakthroughs lead to major scientific advancements. D. Discoveries are either lucky breaks or the result of individual genius. 【答案】51. D 52. C 53. D 54. B 55. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要探讨科学发现的偶然性与必然性，分析机遇、积累的知识和创新思维在科学突破中的作用。 【51题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“In the early 1900s, French chemist, Edouard Benedictus, invented shatterproof (防碎的) glass by chance. (20世纪初，法国化学家爱德华·本尼迪克特偶然发明了防碎玻璃。)”可知，“serendipity”指的是偶然的发明。故选D项。 【52题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This occurs because the environment poses similar survival problems to both, namely similar selective pressures. This is an important clue that can help explain why this also exists in scientific knowledge: There are similar selective pressures and different research groups that compete to come up with the solutions.(这是因为环境给两者都带来了相似的生存问题，即相似的选择压力。这是一个重要线索，可以帮助解释为什么这一现象在科学知识领域也存在：存在相似的选择压力，不同的研究团队竞相提出解决方案。)”可知，达尔文和华莱士的例子是为了说明在共同压力下，不同研究者能得出独立却相似的结论。故选C项。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Some argue all the discoveries would have been made by other people. They believe if the time was ripe in conceptual and technological terms, someone would have got there sooner or later. This is the used and abused understanding of theories that were “in the air”. (有些人认为所有的发现都会被其他人完成。他们认为如果概念和技术层面的时机成熟，总会有人迟早实现这些发现。这就是对‘酝酿之中’的理论的常见且被滥用的理解。)”可知，“in the air”表明科学发现往往是可预见且不可避免的。故选D项。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The mind of the giant was imprisoned by prior knowledge and so trapped within the framework of established habits, research questions, and established methods. The new, little-known scientist, on the other hand, will in one way or another have been able to break free of the chains of established knowledge.(科学巨匠的思维会被已有的知识禁锢，从而陷入既定的研究模式、问题和方法框架中。而另一方面，那些新兴的、不知名的科学家却能以某种方式挣脱已有知识的束缚。)”可知，不知名的科学家能取得突破是因为他们受既定知识的限制更少。故选B项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第五段中的“This suggests that it will be innovators, with their prepared minds, who have a better chance of making accidental discoveries, namely that are irregular and unexpected.(这表明，那些思维有准备的创新者，更有可能做出非常规且意想不到的偶然发现。)”可知，文章的核心观点是：当有准备的思考者遇上机遇时，科学突破才会产生。故选A项。 第II卷(共35分) 注意事项：用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题纸上，不能使用修改液。 第四部分：写作 第一节 阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题 I never realized how much public speaking would be part of a writer’s life. After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others. Then, just before the release of my fourth book, an invitation arrived for a literary festival. I assumed it would be a cozy on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed. The night before my session, an organizer walked me through the venue — a small tent set up in the town square. Another author was speaking, and I saw in horror that there was no interviewer, no table. Just one person standing alone, holding the attention of about eighty people. “How long does each talk last?” I managed to ask. “Around fifty minutes,” the organizer replied cheerfully. “We like to leave time for questions.” My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane — it was time to build a parachute. Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes, recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird. I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came. As I walked off the stage, the wave of nervous energy finally receding, I realized I had survived. My final conclusion: it had gone... okay. There were moments of laughter, moments of awkward silence. But the tent didn’t collapse, and I didn’t run offstage. There’s no secret to overcoming the fear of public speaking. You just have to do it — accept that you won’t be great at first, and trust that you’ll improve. After that festival, I had a basic speech structure, which I refined over time. The dread I once felt slowly transformed into a nervous energy that felt almost like excitement. Now, given the choice between a moderated interview (有主持人的访谈) and speaking solo for fifty minutes, I’d choose the latter. That way, I’m in control — not just of the words, but of the rhythm, the pauses, the connection. And that kind of control is a kind of freedom. 56. How did the author initially feel about his public speaking? (no more than 5 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 57. Why did the author agree to attend the literary festival at first? (no more than 15 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about? (no more than 10 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 59. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 7 mean? (no more than 2 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 60. If you chose between a moderated interview and speaking solo, which one would you select? And give your reasons. (no more than 20 words) _____________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Terrified. 57. He assumed it would be a cozy on-stage interview. 58. The author prepared for the speech nervously. 59. Fading. 60. I would choose speaking solo because it gives me full control and a sense of freedom. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者从害怕公开演讲到逐渐克服恐惧并享受其中控制感的心路历程。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others.(我的前三本书出版后，从来没人邀请我去做演讲，这对我来说再合适不过了 —— 我一直都害怕在众人面前讲话。)”可知，作者最初对公开演讲感到害怕。故答案为：Terrified. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第二段中“I assumed it would be a cozy on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed.(我以为这会是一次舒适的台上采访，讨论我的写作过程。虽然还是有些不安，但我还是同意了。)”可知，作者最初同意参加文学节是因为他以为那会是一个轻松的台上采访。故答案为：He assumed it would be a cozy on-stage interview. 【58题详解】 考查主旨大意。由文章第六段“My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane  — it was time to build a parachute. Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes, recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird. I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came.(我的大脑瞬间切换到了“求生模式”。再过几个小时，我就要像被推下飞机一样 —— 是时候给自己准备降落伞了。回到酒店房间，我拼凑出一篇演讲稿，内容既有往日的趣闻轶事，也有近来的尴尬糗事，还穿插了我这本新书的节选片段。我的心像一只被困的小鸟般怦怦直跳，我一步步走向帐篷，嘴里低声默念着台词……同时默默祈祷，关键时刻自己可千万别失声。)”可知，该段主要讲述作者紧张地为演讲做准备。故答案为：The author prepared for the speech nervously. 【59题详解】 考查词句猜测。由文章第七段中“As I walked off the stage, the wave of nervous energy finally receding, I realized I had survived. My final conclusion: it had gone... okay. There were moments of laughter, moments of awkward silence. But the tent didn’t collapse, and I didn’t run offstage.(当我走下舞台时，那股紧张的劲儿终于receding，我意识到，自己总算熬过来了。我最终的结论是：这次演讲……还算顺利。过程中既有引得全场欢笑的时刻，也有陷入尴尬沉默的瞬间。但至少帐篷没有塌，我也没有仓皇逃离舞台。)”可知，作者走下舞台后，紧张的情绪慢慢消失了，因此receding的意思是“消退、减弱”。故答案为：Fading. 【60题详解】 开放性题目，此题要求回答：如果你在有主持的访谈和独自演讲之间做出选择，你会选择哪一种？并给出你的理由。（不超过20字）答案不唯一，合理即可。例如：我会选择独自演讲，因为它能让我完全掌控全局，并感受到自由。故答案为：I would choose speaking solo because it gives me full control and a sense of freedom. 第二节 书面表达(共1小题;共25分) 61. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李津，你校英语节将举办主题为“Gift a Book, Gift Hope”的捐书活动，为偏远地区学生募集书籍。请你为你所捐赠的最喜爱的一本书写一篇短文附在书中，内容包括： (1)书的简介； (2)推荐此书的理由； (3)寄语希望。 注意： (1)词数不少于120; (2)可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯; Dear my friend, _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】Dear my friend, I’m Li Jin, a student from Chenguang Middle School.
