The happiest city in the world was announced. Now is a good time to put Denmark’s second-largest city, Aarhus, on your list. Located on the east coast of the Jutland Peninsula, Aarhus was recently named the world’s happiest city according to the London-based Institute for Quality of Life’s 2024 Happy City Index. Having four Michelin-starred restaurants, an energetic street food scene, easy access to beautiful nature escapes, and outstanding museums and galleries, Aarhus may not be as well-known as Copenhagen, but it achieved the highest score out of 1,650 cities worldwide, particularly excelling in governance and the environment. Paris came second on the list of Romantic Cities. A recent list by Funjet Vacations and Talker Research revealed that 34 percent of respondents ranked Maui as the most romantic destination excelling Paris by just 1 point. Following Maui and Paris, Rome and Venice also ranked highly in romance stakes, while Cancun rounded out the top 5. While most respondents suggested waiting about a year for a first trip together, many would choose to travel sooner. 1. What can travelers benefit from Inspiring Cruises? A.

To promote a new cruise service. B. To analyze romantic city rankings. C To compare various travel destinations. D. To share the latest news on inspiring travel. B In my childhood, whenever I was being unreasonable, or questioning whatever direction my mother was giving, she would say “I’m the momma and you’re the baby.” End of discussion. Until one day she asked me to do something for her and I said, “No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.” It gave her a good laugh. But, at 31, I’m realizing the dynamic might be shifting. She’s the momma; I’m the baby. But I’m also something else now. More will be asked of me to take care of her. My mother is getting older. The realization hit me during a recent visit home. In my memory our house wasn’t spotless, but I’d call it tidy. Weekends were for cleaning. Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk. A fridge full of spoiled food. A mountain of clothes begging to be located. Was it always this way? When did she become a hoarder (囤积者)? A symptom of aging? But my mother would like you to know something: She is not a hoarder. She spoke frankly with more self-awareness than I expected about life and time and happiness. “The time that I have to go through those things would be my weekends. Do I want to spend my Saturday afternoon going through all the junk? Or do I want to go hang out with my friends? I think the latter. I don’t want to spend one minute of my free time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy,” she says. It’s not that my mother has no worries about aging, but she came to terms with it long before. “Trey, you could spend so much time worrying about things that aren’t perfect. Then time slips by, and they’re never going to be,” she continues. “I think happiness is a moment-to-moment, day-to-day kind of thing. It’s not something you sustain. I still think I’m hot- that might be in my head, but so what.” 4. What was the author’s tone in his response to Mom in paragraph 1? A. Unwilling. B. Pleased. C. Serious. D. Sympathetic. 5. What made the author think Mom was a hoarder at first? A. Her refusal to donate old stuff. B. The mess in Mom’s house. C. Her preference for an economical life. D. The decline of Mom’s health. 6. Why didn’t Mom tidy the house on weekends? A. She had plans with her friends. B. She was too old to do it on her own. C. She desired a pleasant time for herself. D. She had trouble sorting out the junk. 7. Which of the following may best describe Mom? A. Kind but old-fashioned. B. Confident but untidy. C. Hardworking and funny. D. Optimistic and adaptable. C Nowadays, many Chinese tourists are so troubled by holiday crowds that seeking out unheralded (冷门的) destinations has become a trend known as “reverse travel”. Aside from providing people with better travel experiences with fewer crowds, reverse travel also meets their need for novelty and uniqueness. A key driver of travelers heading to lesser-known cities is cost. While the Labor Day holiday saw record numbers of domestic travelers, average spending per person remained below pre-pandemic levels according to a report. Hotels in lesser-known cities can be five times cheaper than in Beijing or Shanghai. The reverse travel trend has seen surging bookings in smaller cities, driven mostly by young people escaping the crowds on Shanghai’s Nanjing Road or in Beijing’s Forbidden City. Wang Xinyu is one of them. During the Labor Day holiday, she left for Weihai, a less famous city for traveling. “Not only can I experience the local way of life by wandering through a park or exploring a market, but the hotel here also costs only a third of the price of Nanjing’s downtown hotels — it’s much more cost-effective,” says Wang. However, escaping large popular cities doesn’t guarantee better experiences. The recent virality of niche (小众的) travel spots has revealed formerly hidden gems (宝石) to more travelers, but many small towns and rural areas aren’t well equipped to handle the new tourist influx. Handan, a city of 9 million in Hebei Province, suffered overcrowding during the Labor Day holiday when it was listed as the seventh most popular “niche” travel spot by social media. Those who come with high hopes of idyllic (田园风的) breaks often instead find limited public transport, entertainment facilities, and charm. Some even report boredom. No destination or time is perfect. Either visitors see famous sites and face the crowds, or head off the beaten track and endure worse accommodation and transport options. “With the crazy amount of people traveling now, you have to let go of something if you want some peace and quiet,” says Mr. Zhai, a tourism researcher from Beijing. 8. Why does the author mention Wang Xinyu’s traveling experience? A. To explain how to choose hotels. B. To introduce Weihai’s scenic spots. C. To present reverse travel’s advantages. D. To prove young people love traveling. 9. What might have caused unpleasant reverse traveling experiences? A. Low budget way of traveling. B. Higher hotel costs during holidays. C. Overcrowding in famous destinations. D. Inadequate facilities in small destinations. 10. What might be Mr. Zhai’s attitude to traveling? A. Travelers prefer unheralded spots. B. Travelers need to think carefully. C. Traditional tours are in decline. D. Reverse travel is a new trend. 11. What would be a suitable title for the text? A. Reverse Travel: Trends and Troubles B. Cost-effective Holidays Gain Popularity C. Holiday Crowds Trouble Chinese Tourists D. Famous Attractions VS Small Destinations D It might surprise you to learn that dogs are playing an increasingly important role as conservationists. For centuries, they have been known as man’s best friends. Now, their unique abilities are being used to help protect some of the world’s most threatened species. Quick and loyal, dogs possess many qualities that make them ideal for fieldwork, but it’s their extraordinary sense of smell that makes them invaluable for conservation work. With around 220 million olfactory receptors(嗅觉受体)compared to just 5 million in humans, dogs can detect scents(气味)and analyze them with astonishing accuracy, devoting 40 times more of their brain to scent analysis than we do. Thanks to this incredible ability, some dogs are now being trained to save at-risk animals by sniffing(嗅)out their droppings. At the University of Washington’s Conservation Canines facility, 20 specially trained dogs have successfully tracked killer whale droppings, which only float briefly on the ocean’s surface. Analyzing these samples enables scientists to monitor the health of killer whale populations, which are under significant stress from food shortages, pollution, and boat traffic. Beyond tracking animal droppings, conservation dogs are also trained for live animal detection, further showcasing their abilities. They can locate rare species in their natural habitats. Additionally, they are now used to tackle the non-native species that threaten the survival of the local wildlife. Dogs also take on other important roles. For example, at Kenya’s Mombasa port, dogs sniff out illegal wildlife products such as rhino horns and ivory. Across Africa, they work on the frontlines against illegal hunting, serving as a powerful security force enhancer. While dogs may not be the ultimate solution to every conservation challenge, their incomparable abilities make them invaluable companions in the fight to protect our planet’s biodiversity. 12. Why are the figures mentioned in the second paragraph? A. To highlight the superiority of dogs’ sense of smell. B. To suggest the amazing accuracy of dogs’ analysis. C. To recognize the importance of conservation work. D. To show dogs’ impressive achievements in fieldwork. 13. How do dogs help protect killer whales? A. By tracking their movements. B. By detecting their droppings. C. By monitoring their populations. D. By analyzing the collected samples. 14. What can we learn from the example given in Paragraph 4? A. Wildlife products are popular in African countries. B. Non-native species affect the survival of local wildlife. C. Dogs are used to detect and prevent illegal wildlife trade. D. Dogs can accurately locate the natural habitats of rare species. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To appeal to people to protect biodiversity. B. To report various environmental challenges. C. To introduce dogs’ roles in conservation efforts. D. To prove the conventional claim of dogs’ qualities. 第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 French Customs Around Eating Meals France is celebrated globally for its cooking contributions.

One particular day, Lisa-my fellow volunteer-and I were assigned to raise funds for cancer research at a public event. The venue was crowded, and though many people paused to glance at our poster or ask a few questions, very few actually donated. As the minutes dragged on, both Lisa and I grew increasingly disheartened (沮丧的). About half an hour, Lisa sighed (叹气) in frustration, “I don’t think we’re going to raise much today.” I tried to sound optimistic, “The event isn’t over yet — we still have time,” though deep down, I shared her doubts. Just as we were losing hope, a little boy, no more than eight years old, approached slowly. Stopping in front of our poster, he frowned slightly, carefully reading the words. After a moment of quiet concentration, he looked up with large, curious eyes and asked softly, “What is cancer?” I knelt down to his level and did my best to explain it in simple terms, describing how the illness affects people and why we need more research to help them. With his expression growing more serious with each word, he asked, “Do children get cancer too?” “Yes” Lisa replied gently with sadness. “Many children do. Some of them don’t get better. They really need someone to help.” Hearing this, his shoulders dropped slightly, and a shadow of sorrow crossed his young face. After a brief silence, he asked in a small voice, “How much money have you collected so far?” Lisa and I exchanged an uneasy glance, both feeling embarrassed about revealing (透露) how little we had raised. Finally, I murmured, “Not very much.” The boy peeked into our donation box, his eyes taking in the one-and five-dollar bills. He didn’t say another word, but the disappointment in his expression was unmistakable. Turning quietly, he walked away and disappeared into the crowd. Neither of us expected to see that little boy again. Yet, about twenty minutes later, to our surprise, he returned. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The boy came running back to us. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Watching the boy walk away, Lisa and I were deeply touched. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 惠州市实验中学2025-2026学年 高二年级上学期期中考试试题 英语 考试时长： 120分钟 满分：120分 第一部分阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15 小题；每小题 2. 5分，满分37. 5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A The Latest News to Inspire You to See the World Inspiring Vacations launch Inspiring Cruises (乘船游览).

Until one day she asked me to do something for her and I said, “No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.” It gave her a good laugh. But, at 31, I’m realizing the dynamic might be shifting. She’s the momma; I’m the baby. But I’m also something else now. More will be asked of me to take care of her. My mother is getting older. The realization hit me during a recent visit home. In my memory, our house wasn’t spotless, but I’d call it tidy. Weekends were for cleaning. Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk.

A 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者本以为母亲老了需要自己的照顾，却在一次偶然的拜访中对母亲现在的生活信条感到惊讶的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“In my childhood, whenever I was being unreasonable, or questioning whatever direction my mother was giving, she would say “I’m the momma and you’re the baby.” End of discussion. Until one day she asked me to do something for her and I said, “No. You’re the momma; I’m the baby.”(在我的童年，每当我不讲道理，或者质疑妈妈给的任何方向时，她都会说：“我是妈妈，你是孩子。”讨论结束。直到有一天她让我为她做点什么，我说：“不。你是妈妈；我是孩子。”)”可知，作者小时候妈妈让做什么就做什么，后来妈妈让作者做事时，作者拒绝了并重复妈妈的话，这表明作者当时是不情愿的。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Yet during this visit I was taken aback by piles upon piles of mail and papers and junk. A fridge full of spoiled food. A mountain of clothes begging to be located. Was it always this way? When did she become a hoarder (囤积者)?( 然而，在这次访问中，我被成堆的邮件、文件和垃圾吓了一跳。装满变质食物的冰箱。堆积如山的衣服等着找。一直都是这样吗？她什么时候成了囤积狂？)”可知，作者看到妈妈家一堆一堆的邮件、文件和垃圾，冰箱里满是变质的食物，还有大量待整理的衣服，这些混乱的场景让作者一开始认为妈妈是个囤积者。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中妈妈说的话““The time that I have to go through those things would be my weekends. Do I want to spend my Saturday afternoon going through all the junk? Or do I want to go hang out with my friends? I think the latter. I don’t want to spend one minute of my free time doing anything that doesn’t bring me joy,” she says.(“我要处理这些事情的时间是周末。我想把周六下午的时间都花在翻垃圾上吗？还是我想和朋友出去玩？我认为是后者。我不想把一分钟的空闲时间花在不能给我带来快乐的事情上，”她说。)”可知，妈妈不想在周末整理东西，是因为她想把周末的时间用来和朋友出去玩，她渴望为自己度过一段愉快的时光（desired a pleasant time for herself），而不是把时间花在整理这些不能给她带来快乐的事情上。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I think happiness is a moment-to-moment, day-to-day kind of thing. It’s not something you sustain. I still think I’m hot- that might be in my head, but so what.(我认为幸福是每时每刻、日复一日的事情。这不是你要维持的。我仍然觉得自己很性感——这可能是我的想法，但那又怎样。)”等内容可以看出妈妈认为幸福是每时每刻、日复一日的事情，她还觉得自己很有魅力，不在乎别人怎么想，这体现了她的乐观（Optimistic）。从她接受自己变老的事实，并且能够以自己的方式生活，如选择在周末做让自己开心的事而不是整理东西，这表明她能够适应生活的变化（adaptable）。故选D项。 C Nowadays, many Chinese tourists are so troubled by holiday crowds that seeking out unheralded (冷门的) destinations has become a trend known as “reverse travel”.

Why does the author mention Wang Xinyu’s traveling experience? A. To explain how to choose hotels. B. To introduce Weihai’s scenic spots. C. To present reverse travel’s advantages. D. To prove young people love traveling. 9. What might have caused unpleasant reverse traveling experiences? A. Low budget way of traveling. B. Higher hotel costs during holidays. C. Overcrowding in famous destinations. D. Inadequate facilities in small destinations. 10. What might be Mr. Zhai’s attitude to traveling? A. Travelers prefer unheralded spots. B. Travelers need to think carefully. C. Traditional tours are in decline. D. Reverse travel is a new trend. 11. What would be a suitable title for the text? A. Reverse Travel: Trends and Troubles B. Cost-effective Holidays Gain Popularity C. Holiday Crowds Trouble Chinese Tourists D. Famous Attractions VS Small Destinations 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“反向旅行”这一新兴旅游趋势，包括其背后的原因、优势以及可能带来的问题。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Wang Xinyu is one of them. During the Labor Day holiday, she left for Weihai, a less famous city for traveling. “Not only can I experience the local way of life by wandering through a park or exploring a market, but the hotel here also costs only a third of the price of Nanjing’s downtown hotels — it’s much more cost-effective,” says Wang. (王馨宇就是其中之一。劳动节假期期间，她去了威海，一个不太有名的旅游城市。王馨宇说：“我不仅可以通过在公园漫步或逛市场来体验当地的生活方式，而且这里的酒店价格也只有南京市区酒店价格的三分之一——这要划算得多。”)”可知，王馨宇的旅行经历展示了反向旅行的好处，即能体验当地生活方式且费用较低。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“However, escaping large popular cities doesn’t guarantee better experiences. The recent virality of niche travel spots has revealed formerly hidden gems to more travelers, but many small towns and rural areas aren’t well equipped to handle the new tourist influx. (然而，逃离大型热门城市并不能保证有更好的体验。最近小众旅游景点的流行向更多的旅行者揭示了以前隐藏的宝石，但许多小镇和农村地区并没有很好的设施来应对新的游客涌入。)”可知，小型旅游目的地的设施不足可能导致不愉快的反向旅行体验。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“No destination or time is perfect. Either visitors see famous sites and face the crowds, or head off the beaten track and endure worse accommodation and transport options. “With the crazy amount of people traveling now, you have to let go of something if you want some peace and quiet,” says Mr. Zhai, a tourism researcher from Beijing. (没有完美的目的地或时间。游客要么去看著名的景点，面对人群，要么走不寻常的路，忍受更差的住宿和交通选择。北京的一位旅游研究员翟先生说：“现在旅行的人太多了，如果你想要一些宁静，你就必须放弃一些东西。”)”可知，翟先生认为旅行者需要仔细考虑，权衡利弊，做出选择。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Nowadays, many Chinese tourists are so troubled by holiday crowds that seeking out unheralded destinations has become a trend known as “reverse travel”. (如今，许多中国游客被假日人群所困扰，以至于寻找鲜为人知的目的地已成为一种被称为“反向旅行”的趋势。)”和最后一段“No destination or time is perfect. (没有完美的目的地或时间。)”以及文章中间部分介绍了反向旅行的优势和可能带来的问题可知，这篇文章主要讨论了反向旅行的趋势及其带来的麻烦，所以选项A：“反向旅游：趋势与问题”适合作为文章标题。故选A。 D It might surprise you to learn that dogs are playing an increasingly important role as conservationists. For centuries, they have been known as man’s best friends. Now, their unique abilities are being used to help protect some of the world’s most threatened species. Quick and loyal, dogs possess many qualities that make them ideal for fieldwork, but it’s their extraordinary sense of smell that makes them invaluable for conservation work. With around 220 million olfactory receptors(嗅觉受体)compared to just 5 million in humans, dogs can detect scents(气味)and analyze them with astonishing accuracy, devoting 40 times more of their brain to scent analysis than we do. Thanks to this incredible ability, some dogs are now being trained to save at-risk animals by sniffing(嗅)out their droppings. At the University of Washington’s Conservation Canines facility, 20 specially trained dogs have successfully tracked killer whale droppings, which only float briefly on the ocean’s surface. Analyzing these samples enables scientists to monitor the health of killer whale populations, which are under significant stress from food shortages, pollution, and boat traffic. Beyond tracking animal droppings, conservation dogs are also trained for live animal detection, further showcasing their abilities. They can locate rare species in their natural habitats. Additionally, they are now used to tackle the non-native species that threaten the survival of the local wildlife. Dogs also take on other important roles. For example, at Kenya’s Mombasa port, dogs sniff out illegal wildlife products such as rhino horns and ivory. Across Africa, they work on the frontlines against illegal hunting, serving as a powerful security force enhancer. While dogs may not be the ultimate solution to every conservation challenge, their incomparable abilities make them invaluable companions in the fight to protect our planet’s biodiversity. 12. Why are the figures mentioned in the second paragraph? A. To highlight the superiority of dogs’ sense of smell. B. To suggest the amazing accuracy of dogs’ analysis. C. To recognize the importance of conservation work. D. To show dogs’ impressive achievements in fieldwork. 13. How do dogs help protect killer whales? A. By tracking their movements. B. By detecting their droppings. C. By monitoring their populations. D. By analyzing the collected samples. 14. What can we learn from the example given in Paragraph 4? A. Wildlife products are popular in African countries. B. Non-native species affect the survival of local wildlife. C. Dogs are used to detect and prevent illegal wildlife trade. D. Dogs can accurately locate the natural habitats of rare species. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To appeal to people to protect biodiversity. B. To report various environmental challenges. C. To introduce dogs’ roles in conservation efforts. D. To prove the conventional claim of dogs’ qualities. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍狗狗凭借独特能力在保护生物多样性等环保工作中发挥的重要作用。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Quick and loyal, dogs possess many qualities that make them ideal for fieldwork, but it’s their extraordinary sense of smell that makes them invaluable for conservation work. With around 220 million olfactory receptors(嗅觉受体)compared to just 5 million in humans, dogs can detect scents(气味)and analyze them with astonishing accuracy, devoting 40 times more of their brain to scent analysis than we do. (狗狗敏捷又忠诚，拥有多种适合野外工作的特质，但正是它们非凡的嗅觉让它们在环保工作中价值连城。狗狗拥有约2.2亿个嗅觉受体，而人类只有500万个；它们投入到气味分析的大脑区域是人类的40倍，因此能以惊人的准确度探测和分析气味。)”可知，第二段提及的数据（狗狗与人类嗅觉受体数量、大脑用于气味分析的占比），是为了突出狗狗嗅觉的优越性。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Thanks to this incredible ability, some dogs are now being trained to save at-risk animals by sniffing(嗅)out their droppings. At the University of Washington’s Conservation Canines facility, 20 specially trained dogs have successfully tracked killer whale droppings, which only float briefly on the ocean’s surface. (凭借这种惊人的能力，一些狗狗如今接受训练，通过嗅探濒危动物的粪便来拯救它们。在华盛顿大学的‘环保犬’机构，20只经过特殊训练的狗狗成功追踪到了虎鲸的粪便——这些粪便仅会在海洋表面短暂漂浮。)”可知，狗狗通过探测虎鲸的粪便来帮助保护虎鲸。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“For example, at Kenya’s Mombasa port, dogs sniff out illegal wildlife products such as rhino horns and ivory. Across Africa, they work on the frontlines against illegal hunting, serving as a powerful security force enhancer. (例如，在肯尼亚的蒙巴萨港，狗狗会嗅出犀牛角、象牙等非法野生动物制品。在非洲各地，它们奋战在打击非法狩猎的前线，成为强有力的安全力量助力者。)”可知，该例子说明狗狗被用于探测和阻止非法野生动物交易。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，第一段指出“狗狗在环保工作中发挥日益重要的作用”，随后段落分别介绍狗狗的嗅觉优势、通过嗅探粪便保护濒危动物、探测活体动物及打击非法野生动物交易等具体作用，最后总结狗狗在保护生物多样性中的价值。由此可知，作者写作本文的目的是介绍狗狗在环保工作中的作用。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 French Customs Around Eating Meals France is celebrated globally for its cooking contributions.

French food customs are a delightful blend of tradition, etiquette (礼仪), and a genuine passion for quality and pleasure. (法国因其烹饪贡献而享誉全球。法国的饮食习惯是传统、礼仪和对质量和乐趣的真正热情的完美融合。)”可知，这里主要讲法国的饮食习惯是传统、礼仪和对质量和乐趣的真正热情的完美融合。而C项Let’s start a journey to explore them together(让我们一起踏上探索之旅)符合语境，其中them代指上文 French food customs，且Let’s start a journey to explore 也有启下作用。故选C项。 【17题详解】 由上文“Mealtime in France is a special time for family and friends to gather, chat, and enjoy the art of good food.(法国的用餐时间是家人和朋友聚会、聊天和享受美食艺术的特殊时间。)”可知，这里主要讲法国的用餐时间是一个重要的时刻，而E项Whether it’s a simple weekday meal or a grand Sunday lunch(无论是简单的工作日餐还是丰盛的周日午餐)符合语境，本句与下句these moments are rarely rushed(这些时刻很少草率)构成让步状语从句，且a simple weekday meal or a grand Sunday lunch与下文these moments对应，有启下作用。故选E项。 【18题详解】 由下文“Dining is seen as a joyous celebration of life’s flavors. In France, it’s common to see lunch breaks extend over an hour, with everyone taking the time to enjoy their meal. This unhurried approach to eating encourages mindful consumption, improved digestion, and a greater appreciation for the food.(用餐被视为对生活风味的欢乐庆祝。在法国，午休时间超过一个小时是很常见的，每个人都会花时间享受他们的用餐。这种从容不迫的饮食方式鼓励有意识的消费，改善消化，并对食物有更大的欣赏。)”可知，法国的用餐时间比较长，人们把这当成一个享受的时间。而D项In the French tradition, meals are never a rushed affair(在法国传统中，吃饭从来不是一件匆忙的事情)符合语境，对下文有总括作用，其中never a rushed affair与下文 taking the time to enjoy their meal和unhurried 对应，有启下作用。故选D项。 【19题详解】 由下文“Cutlery (餐具) is typically placed directly on the tablecloth. Leaving food on your plate might be seen as wasteful while finishing everything might imply you’re still hungry. Remember, the pace is slow and steady!(餐具通常直接放在桌布上。把食物放在盘子里可能会被视为浪费，而吃完所有东西可能意味着你仍然饿。记住，节奏是缓慢而稳定的！)”可知，这里主要讲餐桌上的礼仪，风俗和常识，而F项It starts with a simple “bon appétit” wishing everyone a good meal(它以一个简单的“祝大家用餐愉快”开始)符合语境，与上文的 manners, customs, and a bit of common sense对应，也与下文例举的具体礼仪和常识事项并列。故选F项。 【20题详解】 由下文“French meals are as much about conversation as they are about food. The conversation is just as important as the food itself. French people like to share stories and opinions while eating. Topics flow freely around the table, from politics to personal stories. There might even be a good debate at table!(法国餐不仅与食物有关，也与谈话有关。谈话和食物本身一样重要。法国人喜欢边吃边分享故事和观点。话题在桌子上自由流动，从政治到个人故事。甚至可能在餐桌上进行一场精彩的辩论！)”可知，本段主要讲法国餐桌上的谈话内容。而A项The art of conversation at table(餐桌上的交谈艺术)符合语境，其中conversation与下文对应。故选A项。 第二部分语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Wilt Chamberlain is 47 years old.

One particular day, Lisa-my fellow volunteer-and I were assigned to raise funds for cancer research at a public event. The venue was crowded, and though many people paused to glance at our poster or ask a few questions, very few actually donated. As the minutes dragged on, both Lisa and I grew increasingly disheartened (沮丧的). About half an hour, Lisa sighed (叹气) in frustration, “I don’t think we’re going to raise much today.” I tried to sound optimistic, “The event isn’t over yet — we still have time,” though deep down, I shared her doubts. Just as we were losing hope, a little boy, no more than eight years old, approached slowly. Stopping in front of our poster, he frowned slightly, carefully reading the words. After a moment of quiet concentration, he looked up with large, curious eyes and asked softly, “What is cancer?” I knelt down to his level and did my best to explain it in simple terms, describing how the illness affects people and why we need more research to help them. With his expression growing more serious with each word, he asked, “Do children get cancer too?” “Yes,” Lisa replied gently with sadness. “Many children do. Some of them don’t get better. They really need someone to help.” Hearing this, his shoulders dropped slightly, and a shadow of sorrow crossed his young face. After a brief silence, he asked in a small voice, “How much money have you collected so far?” Lisa and I exchanged an uneasy glance, both feeling embarrassed about revealing (透露) how little we had raised. Finally, I murmured, “Not very much.” The boy peeked into our donation box, his eyes taking in the one-and five-dollar bills. He didn’t say another word, but the disappointment in his expression was unmistakable. Turning quietly, he walked away and disappeared into the crowd. Neither of us expected to see that little boy again. Yet, about twenty minutes later, to our surprise, he returned. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150词左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The boy came running back to us. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Watching the boy walk away, Lisa and I were deeply touched. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: The boy came running back to us. His face was red with exertion, and he was clutching a small, worn piggy bank in his hands. “Here,” he said breathlessly, “I want to give all my money to help the children with cancer.” He poured out the coins into our donation box, which made a clinking sound as they fell. We were both speechless, realizing that this little boy, who was probably not much older than the children we were trying to help, had given up all his savings for this cause. Paragraph 2: Watching the boy walk away, Lisa and I were deeply touched. We knew that his act of kindness would inspire others to do the same. As we continued our fundraising efforts, we shared the boy’s story with everyone who stopped by, hoping to spread the message of compassion and generosity. The boy’s selfless act, though small in amount, was a powerful reminder that even the youngest among us can make a difference in the world, which is what truly matters. 【解析】 【导语】本文以志愿者筹款经历为线索展开，讲述了作者和同伴莉萨在公共活动中为癌症研究筹款，因捐赠者稀少而沮丧。一个八岁左右的小男孩前来询问癌症相关情况，得知孩子们受癌症困扰且筹款微薄后，失望离开，二十分钟后又意外返回的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“男孩跑回到我们身边。”可知，第一段可以描写男孩气喘吁吁跑来的模样、紧攥存钱罐的动作，接着写男孩捐赠全部零花钱的言行，最后写看到这一幕时的震惊与触动。 ②由第二段句首内容“看着那个男孩走远，Lisa和我深受感动。”可知，第二段可以描写二人目送男孩离开时的内心感受，接着写在后续筹款中分享男孩事迹的做法，最后升华文章主旨：微小的善举也能传递温暖、改变世界。 2.续写线索：男孩跑来捐赠存钱罐 —— 男孩倾出全部硬币 ——震惊无言 —— 目送男孩离开心生触动 —— 分享男孩事迹传递善意 —— 点明善举的力量与意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 抓紧某物：clutch sth./hold sth. tightly ② 倒出：pour out/empty out/tip out ③ 继续：continue/go on/carry on 情绪类： ① 善良：kindness/benevolence/goodness ② 无私：selfless/unselfish 【点睛】【高分句型1】 He poured out the coins into our donation box, which made a clinking sound as they fell. (运用了which引导的定语从句) 【高分句型2】As we continued our fundraising efforts, we shared the boy’s story with everyone who stopped by, hoping to spread the message of compassion and generosity.(运用了As引导的时间状语从句、who引导的定语从句、) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
