King, better known as B.B. King, who won 15 Grammy Awards and died in 2015. He is credited by many for helping to bring the blues to a global stage. Here are 4 spots along the Blues Trail where visitors can celebrate B.B. King and the music he made famous: Jackson, Mississippi Jackson hosted the kick-off of the centennial (百年的) celebration of B.B. King’s birth in January, and it will conclude the festivities with the Legacies of Empowerment programme at the National Folk Festival from 7 — 9 November. The event features a mini-exhibition of King’s original scripts, arts and food honoring the cultural and social contributions of both King and civil rights activist Medgar Evers, a fellow Mississippian who would also have turned 100 this year. Indianola, Mississippi From 9-14 November, the B.B. King Museum is hosting an extensive birthday programme that includes an exhibition on his music training experience, a parade, and a concert at Club Ebony where King first performed, complete with a hologram (全息图) experience of King playing alongside live musicians. Clarksdale, Mississippi Visitors can see one of King’s famous Gibson guitars, which he named Lucille, at the Delta Blues Museum, and watch interviews with musicians who played with King. Music lovers should also visit the Ground Zero Blues Club to see modern blues musicians carry on the tradition any night of the week. Memphis, Tennessee Memphis is marking the centennial with themed tours, exhibitions and events, including a special display of rarely seen photos of King and other blues legends at the Withers Museum & Gallery; and a special Mojo Music Tour which takes guests to blues-related attractions and sites. Perhaps the most anticipated event is the Beale Street Birthday Bash on 14 September, a night of music on the legendary street. 1. What does the celebration in Jackson, Mississippi end with? A. A memorial ceremony for Medgar Evers. B. A mini-exhibition of King’s favorite foods. C. The Legacies of Empowerment programme. D. The centennial celebration of B.B. King’s birth. 2. Where can visitors see B.B. King’s instrument? A. In Jackson. B. In Clarksdale. C. In Indianola. D. In Memphis. 3. What do the four celebrations have in common? A. They last a week. B. They hold a parade. C. They include an exhibition. D. They offer a themed tour. 【答案】1. C 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了为纪念蓝调音乐传奇人物B.B. King百年诞辰，蓝调之路上的四个城市举办的一系列庆祝活动，包括展览、游行、音乐会等。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Jackson, Mississippi部分“Jackson hosted the kick-off of the centennial celebration of B.B. King’s birth in January, and it will conclude the festivities with the Legacies of Empowerment programme at the National Folk Festival from 7 — 9 November.(杰克逊于1月主持了B.B.金诞辰100周年庆典的启动仪式，该庆典将于11月7日至9日在国家民俗节上以“赋权遗产”项目作为活动的圆满收尾)”可知，Jackson的庆祝活动以“Legacies of Empowerment programme”结束。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Clarksdale, Mississippi部分“Visitors can see one of King’s famous Gibson guitars, which he named Lucille, at the Delta Blues Museum, and watch interviews with musicians who played with King.(游客们可以在三角洲蓝调博物馆看到King的一把标志性吉布森吉他 —— 他将其命名为露西尔，还能观看曾与金同台演出的音乐家们的访谈)”可知，B.B. King的乐器在Clarksdale的Delta Blues博物馆展出。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The event features a mini-exhibition (此次活动特别设有一个小型展览)”；第三段“...includes an exhibition on his music training experience (……包括关于他音乐训练经历的展览)”；第四段“Visitors can see one of King’s famous Gibson guitars, which he named Lucille, at the Delta Blues Museum (游客们可以在三角洲蓝调博物馆看到King的一把标志性吉布森吉他 —— 他将其命名为露西尔)”和最后一段“Memphis is marking the centennial with themed tours, exhibitions and events(孟菲斯市正在以一系列主题活动、展览和活动)”可知，四个城市的庆祝活动均包括展览。故选C。 B Nowadays, people lay everything to heredity (遗传); that is, we receive our special talents from our ancestors. I shall tell you my story to show that I did not inherit my passion for insects from any of them. My mother’s parents did not care in the least about insects. The only attention my grandfather paid to an insect was to crush it under his foot. My illiterate (不识字的) grandmother would throw away a caterpillar in fright. My own parents did not inspire this love. My mother was illiterate; my father, slightly educated, was too busy for encouragement. Yet I began to observe as a baby. One day, standing on the grassland, I was fascinated by the sun. A question possessed me: did I sense the sunlight with my mouth or my eyes? I opened my mouth and closed my eyes: glory disappeared. I opened my eyes and shut my mouth: glory returned. I saw with my eyes! Oh, what a discovery! At home, my grandmother smiled; the others laughed. At nightfall, a faint jingle from the bushes attracted me. Who is making that noise? They spoke of a wolf, but I had to look. After a stubborn watch, I caught the singer — a grasshopper (蚂蚱)! I now knew, from personal observation, that the grasshopper sings. I did not tell them my discovery, for fear of the same laughter. Later, I went to school. The room served every purpose; school, kitchen, bedroom, even a chicken house and a piggery. Our studies were constantly disturbed by little pigs rubbing (蹭) against our legs or by the hen and her chicks, or by the smells of cooking. But my passion for animals and plants progressed of itself, fueled by the country school’s continuous offerings — from studying the pigeon on my book to collecting snails, catching frogs, and admiring beetles in the fields. Thus, in this chaos, the future observer taught himself. 4. What does the author intend to convey by telling his family story? A. The hardship of rural life. B. His natural passion for insects. C. His early education background. D. The influence of his family on him. 5 How did the author’s family react to his discovery about the sunlight? A. They rejected it. B. They questioned it. C. They brushed it aside. D. They approved of it. 6. What does the description of the school mainly suggest? A. The lively classes attracted animals. B. The students lacked interest in learning. C. The animals became a threat to students. D. The environment presented barriers to learning. 7. What was the author like as a boy? A. Inquiring. B. Encouraging. C. Troublesome. D. Ambitious. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者对昆虫的热爱并非遗传于家人，而是源于幼时自发的观察与探索，即便环境简陋也未消减这份热情。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I shall tell you my story to show that I did not inherit my passion for insects from any of them. (我将给你们讲讲我的故事，以此说明我对昆虫的热爱并非遗传自我的任何一位家人)”可推知，作者讲述家庭故事是为了表明自己对昆虫的热爱是与生俱来的，而非受家人影响。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“At home, my grandmother smiled; the others laughed. (回到家，祖母只是笑了笑，其他人则哈哈大笑起来)”可知，家人对作者关于阳光的发现并未当真，只是一笑置之，没有重视。由此推知，brushed it aside“置之不理”符合这一态度。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“The room served every purpose; school, kitchen, bedroom, even a chicken house and a piggery. Our studies were constantly disturbed by little pigs rubbing (蹭) against our legs or by the hen and her chicks, or by the smells of cooking. (这间屋子可谓是一物多用，既是教室、厨房、卧室，甚至还兼作鸡舍和猪圈。我们的学习总是被蹭腿的小猪、母鸡和它的雏鸡，或是做饭的气味所干扰)”可推知，对学校的描述主要表明学习环境十分简陋，存在诸多干扰学习的因素。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“A question possessed me: did I sense the sunlight with my mouth or my eyes? I opened my mouth and closed my eyes: glory disappeared. I opened my eyes and shut my mouth: glory returned. (我被一个问题困扰：我是用嘴巴还是用眼睛感知阳光的？我张开嘴巴闭上双眼，光芒消失了；我睁开眼睛闭上嘴巴，光芒又回来了)”以及第四段中的“At nightfall, a faint jingle from the bushes attracted me. Who is making that noise? They spoke of a wolf, but I had to look. (黄昏时分，灌木丛里传来微弱的叮当声，吸引了我。是谁在发出这样的声音？大人们都说那是狼叫，但我还是要去看一看)”可知，作者小时候充满好奇心，喜欢探索和追问。由此推知，inquiring“好奇的、爱探究的”符合其性格特点。故选A项。 C Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols (黄烷醇), compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate. While some short-term studies, frequently funded by chocolate companies, suggested potential advantages, their results have been inconsistent. More importantly, they are too brief to reveal the long-term effects of regular consumption. Observational studies, which simply note correlations (相关性), found that people who eat more dark chocolate tend to be healthier. But this could be because they often have higher incomes and better overall lifestyles, not because of the chocolate itself. To settle the debate, a big randomized experiment was conducted. It involved older adults who took daily cocoa-flavanol supplements for several years. The findings were clear: the flavanols made no significant difference to the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. There was one positive note — a reduction in cardiovascular (心血管的) deaths — but this single outcome is not solid proof of benefit. Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar. It means a person would also consume a substantial portion of the daily recommended limit of fat, which is known to raise cholesterol (胆固醇) and harm heart health. A far healthier way to get flavanols is from foods like apples, nuts, strawberries, or green tea. Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. While enjoying it as an occasional treat is fine, relying on it as a health food is misguided. True wellness comes from a balanced diet rich in various fruits, vegetables, and beans—not from a single, sugary treat. 8. What is a common belief about dark chocolate? A. It has inconsistent benefits. B. Its benefits come at a high cost. C. It contributes to physical health. D. Its advantages rely on long-term intake. 9. What is a result of taking in flavanols from dark chocolate? A. Faster fat burning. B. Resistance to cholesterol. C. Reduction of cancer risks. D. Increase in sugar consumption. 10. What does the underlined word “robust” in the last paragraph mean? A. Basic. B. Solid. C. Advanced. D. Emerging. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate B. A Guide to Choosing Healthy Chocolate C. The Impact of Flavanols on Your Health D. Marketing vs. Science in the Food Industry 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了黑巧克力被广泛认为的健康益处，指出这些益处更多基于营销和一厢情愿的想法，而非坚实的科学依据。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower.(黑巧克力，主要是固体可可，被广泛认为是一种更健康的零食，人们认为它有降低血压和提高智力的好处)”可知，关于黑巧克力，人们普遍认为它有助于身体健康。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar.(至关重要的是，从商业黑巧克力中获取高比例的黄烷醇会带来严重的缺点。为了抵消可可的苦味，制造商添加了大量的糖)”可知，从黑巧克力中摄取黄烷醇会导致糖的摄入量增加。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. (最终，黑巧克力那些备受称赞的健康益处似乎更多植根于市场营销和一厢情愿的想法，而非robust的科学)”可知，划线词“robust”与“marketing and wishful thinking (营销和一厢情愿的想法)”形成对比，用来修饰“science”，应指“坚实的、可靠的”科学证据，与B项“Solid”意思相近。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章开篇第一段“Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols, compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate.(人们普遍认为，以固体可可为主的黑巧克力是更健康的零食，常被认为具有降低血压、增强脑力等益处。这些说法主要与可可中富含的黄烷醇化合物有关。然而，仔细审视科学证据会发现，我们对食用黑巧克力应持谨慎态度)”即引出对黑巧克力健康宣称的质疑。随后，文章第二、三段分析相关科学证据的薄弱之处，第四段揭示其高糖高脂的健康风险，最后一段总结其健康益处更多源于营销。全文核心在于揭示关于黑巧克力健康的“苦涩真相”。A项“The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate (黑巧克力的苦涩真相)”准确概括了这一主题，是文章最佳标题。故选A项。 D You had to be really unlucky to be on the China National Highway 110 on August 14, 2025. One of the longest traffic jams on record, trapping thousands of vehicles over more than 100 kilometers and lasting more than 10 days. Would it make you impatient? I strongly suspect that even the calmest would answer with a resounding “yes”! And yet philosophers and poets alike sell patience as a “virtue”, implying that having it is always a good thing. To me, it’s far more useful to think about patience as something we do rather than something we have. Consider first what it means to be impatient. We all know the feeling: fingers drumming the table, leg bouncing. But why does this frustrating feeling arise? Most emotion researchers take it as a functionalist perspective. Our mind and body are trying to tell us to get moving, to find a way to bring the unpleasant delay to an end. In a series of recent studies with more than 1,400 participants, we found that people were more impatient when the thing they were waiting for was very appealing — and when the wait itself was unappealing. Being delayed for something you hate, such as an unpleasant work event, is easier than a similar delay for a much-anticipated performance by your favorite band. If impatience is an emotion, what is patience? In technical terms, it’s a form of emotion regulation like reminding ourselves that the scary movie isn’t real. When we start to feel impatient, we can let that feeling rage—or we can regulate it. Are you waiting weeks to find out if you have got that job? Dive into your favorite hobby to distract yourself for a few hours. There’s still a lot we don’t know about patience, including why some people seem to find it easier than others and how we can get better at it. Fortunately, those are simpler questions to answer when we reduce the challenge from virtue acquisition to emotion regulation. Ultimately, it may seem like a sharp contrast to poetic descriptions of virtue, but I’ll take practical wisdom over virtue any day. 12. What is the author’s attitude to people’s impatience in traffic jams on the National Highway 110? A. Understanding. B. Dismissive. C. Indifferent. D. Critical. 13. According to the text, which of the following situations would make people the most impatient? A. Being stuck in a traffic jam in a comfortable car. B. Being delayed by bad weather on the way to work. C. Waiting for an important but unpleasant work meeting. D. Waiting in a long queue for an expected football game. 14. The author views patience as _________. A. an acquired virtue B. a born personality C. a form of releasing emotion D. a behavior of regulating emotion 15. What is the purpose of the text? A To justify a virtue. B. To redefine patience. C. To introduce strategies. D. To identify impatience. 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。作者从一场严重交通堵塞引出话题，对“耐心是一种美德”的传统观念提出挑战，并重新定义了“耐心”。作者通过心理学和功能性分析，解构了“耐心作为天赋美德”的传统叙述，并将其重新定义为一种人人都可以通过学习来实践的“情绪调节行为”。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“You had to be really unlucky to be on the China National Highway 110 on August 14, 2025. One of the longest traffic jams on record, trapping thousands of vehicles over more than 100 kilometers and lasting more than 10 days. Would it make you impatient? I strongly suspect that even the calmest would answer with a resounding “yes”! And yet philosophers and poets alike sell patience as a “virtue”, implying that having it is always a good thing. To me, it’s far more useful to think about patience as something we do rather than something we have.(2025年8月14日，你要是开车行驶在110国道上，那可真是够倒霉的了。那是有记录以来最长的一次交通堵塞之一，长达100多公里，数千辆车被困其中，持续了十多天。这会让你变得急躁吗？我强烈怀疑即便是最沉着冷静的人也会毫不犹豫地回答“是的”！然而，哲学家和诗人却都将耐心视为一种“美德”，暗示拥有耐心总是件好事。在我看来，把耐心看作是我们所做之事而非所拥有的事物，要更有意义得多)”可知，作者在描述110国道大堵车时，先指出“你会非常倒霉”，然后说“即使最冷静的人也会响亮地回答‘是的’（会不耐烦）”。这种表述并非批评或轻视人们的急躁，而是设身处地地表示在这种情况下感到不耐烦是人之常情。由此可见，作者对此持理解的态度。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In a series of recent studies with more than 1,400 participants, we found that people were more impatient when the thing they were waiting for was very appealing — and when the wait itself was unappealing.(在最近的一系列研究中，我们对超过1400名参与者进行了调查。研究发现，当人们所等待的事情极具吸引力，而等待的过程本身又毫无吸引力时，他们就会更加不耐烦)”可知，当等待的目标非常吸引人，且等待过程本身令人不悦时，人们会更不耐烦。D项“为了一场期待的足球比赛排长队”完全符合这两个条件：足球比赛是“吸引人的目标”，排长队是“不悦的等待过程”。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In technical terms, it’s a form of emotion regulation like reminding ourselves that the scary movie isn’t real.(从技术层面来讲，这属于一种情绪调节的方式，就像提醒自己那部恐怖电影并非真实存在一样)”以及最后一句“Dive into your favorite hobby to distract yourself for a few hours.(投身于你最喜爱的爱好中，让自己暂时忘却烦恼，放松一下，享受几个小时的宁静时光吧)”可知，耐心是一种行为。因此，作者视耐心为一种调节情绪的行为。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文围绕“耐心”展开：以实例引出对传统“耐心即美德”观点的质疑（第一段）→分析急躁的成因（第二、三段）→提出对耐心的新定义，即它是一种“情绪调节行为”（第四段）→总结强调这一实用主义新视角优于传统美德观（第五段）。因此，文章的目的是提出并论证一个关于“耐心”的新定义。故选B。 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。 After 20 years of teaching, I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___16___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades. ___17___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___18___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result. The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___19___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too. Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___20___ A. Teachers are to blame. B. It is to ask how to improve. C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication. E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. 【答案】16. F 17. C 18. G 19. B 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了当下学生将努力与成绩挂钩的现象，阐明成绩应基于知识掌握而非单纯付出的观点。 【16题详解】 根据空前“But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” (但最近我听到了一个新的抱怨：“我的成绩没有体现出我在这门课上付出的努力。”)”以及空后“In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. (过去，学生们都明白这一点，也知道A级成绩需要实打实的出色表现。然而如今，Z世代期望自己付出的努力多少能得到回报，而非依据掌握知识的质量来评判)”可知，此空应点明成绩的评定标准，即高分奖励的是优秀成果而非努力过程，F选项“High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. (高分是对优秀成果的奖励，而非对坚持不懈的努力的认可)”承接前文的学生抱怨，且引出后文的古今对比，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据空后“It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. (这是对一种流行教育理论产生误解所导致的结果)”可知，此空应表明Z世代的这种想法并非其自身的过错，C选项“This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. (这并不是Z世代的错)”引出后文对该现象成因的分析，符合语境。故选C项。 【18题详解】 根据空前“Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. (心理学家早就发现，奖励努力有助于培养强烈的职业道德，还能强化学习效果)”以及空后“We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. (我们已经从赞扬努力，变成了将努力本身当作最终目的。我们没能提醒他们，努力并不一定能保证把事情做好)”可知，此空应形成转折，指出如今人们对赞扬努力这件事做得过了头，G选项“But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. (但我们把赞扬勤奋这件事做得太过火了)”承接前文的正确理念，且引出后文的过度做法，符合语境。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据空前“The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. (面对不理想的成绩，理想的反应不是抱怨自己的勤奋没有得到回报)”以及空后“Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. (更努力地尝试并不总是解决问题的办法。有时候需要更聪明地学习，还有些时候则需要彻底转向其他方向)”可知，此空应说明面对不理想成绩的正确做法是寻求改进方法，B选项“It is to ask how to improve. (而是应该思考如何改进)”与前文的错误做法形成对比，且引出后文的具体建议，符合语境。故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据空前“The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. (衡量学习的真正标准，不是你投入了多少时间和精力)”可知，此空应点明衡量学习的真正标准是学到的知识和技能，E选项“It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. (而是你所掌握的知识和技能)”与前文形成“不是……而是……”的逻辑关系，符合语境。故选E项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was late afternoon that day, yet still hot. While I was driving north, I saw an elderly woman with groceries ____21____ southward, obviously in need of help. I felt guilty for not stopping. “But how can I safely stop without blocking late-afternoon traffic?” I ____22____. This thought eased my guilt ____23____. Yet I still made a U-turn, which ____24____ other drivers. I stopped by the woman, asking, “Need a ride?” “Bless you,” she said, ____25____ me farther south. As we drove, darkness fell.

For decades, it had been a shelter for book lovers. The wooden sign above the door, weathered but proud, read “Hopkins’ Books” in brick red. It had been a constant place where time moved slower with the first turn of a page. Now, it was closing. The news felt like a physical blow to David, a quiet college student who had grown up reading in the cozy corners of the shop. The smell of old paper was the smell of his childhood, witnessing his growth. He couldn’t imagine the street without its warm, inviting light. When the news spread throughout the entire neighborhood, worry was written all over everyone’s faces. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, a profitable upgrade. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. 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。 Paragraph 1: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. As Sarah flipped through the contract, David gripped The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, stepping forward with courage. “Ms. Chen, may I show you something?” He laid out a bookmark, and faded photos — tangible threads of the neighborhood’s memories. “This store isn’t just wood and shelves: here I learned to dream, Mrs. Henderson reads to kids weekly, and Mr. Hopkins found my first poetry book.” His eyes glistened as children glanced from the corner, clutching books. “It’s a living legacy, not just profit.” Sarah’s pen froze, her gaze softening and hesitation flickering across her face. A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. Workers handled the store with utmost care crafting a cozy café bar bathed in warm light. David volunteered diligently, sorting books and hanging lights that cast gentle glows on pages. When the doors reopened, joy filled the air: kids stretched on cushions reading, and elders chatted over the bar. Mr. Hopkins smiled by the door as the store breathed new life — no longer just a book lovers’ shelter, but a vibrant harbour where memories endured and new stories unfolded. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Hopkins先生的书店多年来一直是书迷们的避风港，如今却面临关闭，原因是Sarah Chen要收购这座建筑用于商业行为，心灰意冷的Hopkins先生也决定放手，但这对其中一名顾客David来说犹如晴天霹雳，书店承载着他童年的记忆，见证了他成长的历程，在最终会议的那天，David背着多年来从书店里收集来的物品早早到达，看着Sarah与Hopkins先生一起审查合同，他的心在胸膛里剧烈地跳动着。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“如果他没有努力让自己的声音被听到，他绝不能让这种情况发生”可知，第一段可描写David向Sarah展示自己带的东西，讲述书店的意义，Sarah态度变得缓和。 ②由第二段首句内容“最终决定将书店和咖啡馆合二为一，开始进行建设。”可知，第二段可描写书店和咖啡馆建成，焕发出新的生机。 2.续写线索：走向Sarah——讲述书店的意义——态度变得柔和——最终决定——书店和咖啡馆建成——焕发新的生机 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①浏览，草草翻阅：flip through/flick through ②铺开，展开：lay out/spread out ③闪闪发光：glisten/shine 情绪类 ①勇气：courage/bravery ②欢乐：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] As Sarah flipped through the contract, David gripped The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, stepping forward with courage.（由连词as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] David volunteered diligently, sorting books and hanging lights that cast gentle glows on pages.  （由关系代词that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高三年级12月检测训练 英语试题 （试卷满分：150分 考试用时：120分钟） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上.写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话读两遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

King, better known as B.B. King, who won 15 Grammy Awards and died in 2015. He is credited by many for helping to bring the blues to a global stage. Here are 4 spots along the Blues Trail where visitors can celebrate B.B. King and the music he made famous: Jackson, Mississippi Jackson hosted the kick-off of the centennial (百年的) celebration of B.B. King’s birth in January, and it will conclude the festivities with the Legacies of Empowerment programme at the National Folk Festival from 7 — 9 November. The event features a mini-exhibition of King’s original scripts, arts and food honoring the cultural and social contributions of both King and civil rights activist Medgar Evers, a fellow Mississippian who would also have turned 100 this year. Indianola, Mississippi From 9-14 November, the B.B. King Museum is hosting an extensive birthday programme that includes an exhibition on his music training experience, a parade, and a concert at Club Ebony where King first performed, complete with a hologram (全息图) experience of King playing alongside live musicians. Clarksdale, Mississippi Visitors can see one of King’s famous Gibson guitars, which he named Lucille, at the Delta Blues Museum, and watch interviews with musicians who played with King. Music lovers should also visit the Ground Zero Blues Club to see modern blues musicians carry on the tradition any night of the week. Memphis, Tennessee Memphis is marking the centennial with themed tours, exhibitions and events, including a special display of rarely seen photos of King and other blues legends at the Withers Museum & Gallery; and a special Mojo Music Tour which takes guests to blues-related attractions and sites. Perhaps the most anticipated event is the Beale Street Birthday Bash on 14 September, a night of music on the legendary street. 1. What does the celebration in Jackson, Mississippi end with? A. A memorial ceremony for Medgar Evers. B. A mini-exhibition of King’s favorite foods. C. The Legacies of Empowerment programme. D. The centennial celebration of B.B. King’s birth. 2.

They hold a parade. C. They include an exhibition. D. They offer a themed tour. B Nowadays, people lay everything to heredity (遗传); that is, we receive our special talents from our ancestors. I shall tell you my story to show that I did not inherit my passion for insects from any of them. My mother’s parents did not care in the least about insects. The only attention my grandfather paid to an insect was to crush it under his foot. My illiterate (不识字的) grandmother would throw away a caterpillar in fright. My own parents did not inspire this love. My mother was illiterate; my father, slightly educated, was too busy for encouragement. Yet I began to observe as a baby. One day, standing on the grassland, I was fascinated by the sun. A question possessed me: did I sense the sunlight with my mouth or my eyes? I opened my mouth and closed my eyes: glory disappeared. I opened my eyes and shut my mouth: glory returned. I saw with my eyes! Oh, what a discovery! At home, my grandmother smiled; the others laughed. At nightfall, a faint jingle from the bushes attracted me. Who is making that noise? They spoke of a wolf, but I had to look. After a stubborn watch, I caught the singer — a grasshopper (蚂蚱)! I now knew, from personal observation, that the grasshopper sings. I did not tell them my discovery, for fear of the same laughter. Later, I went to school. The room served every purpose; school, kitchen, bedroom, even a chicken house and a piggery. Our studies were constantly disturbed by little pigs rubbing (蹭) against our legs or by the hen and her chicks, or by the smells of cooking. But my passion for animals and plants progressed of itself, fueled by the country school’s continuous offerings — from studying the pigeon on my book to collecting snails, catching frogs, and admiring beetles in the fields. Thus, in this chaos, the future observer taught himself. 4. What does the author intend to convey by telling his family story? A. The hardship of rural life. B. His natural passion for insects. C. His early education background. D. The influence of his family on him. 5. How did the author’s family react to his discovery about the sunlight? A. They rejected it. B. They questioned it. C. They brushed it aside. D. They approved of it. 6. What does the description of the school mainly suggest? A. The lively classes attracted animals. B. The students lacked interest in learning. C.

C Dark chocolate, mainly solid cocoa, is widely believed to be a healthier treat, often credited with benefits like lowering blood pressure and boosting brainpower. These claims are largely linked to flavanols (黄烷醇), compounds abundant in cocoa. However, a closer look at the scientific evidence suggests that we should be careful about eating dark chocolate. While some short-term studies, frequently funded by chocolate companies, suggested potential advantages, their results have been inconsistent. More importantly, they are too brief to reveal the long-term effects of regular consumption. Observational studies, which simply note correlations (相关性), found that people who eat more dark chocolate tend to be healthier. But this could be because they often have higher incomes and better overall lifestyles, not because of the chocolate itself. To settle the debate, a big randomized experiment was conducted. It involved older adults who took daily cocoa-flavanol supplements for several years. The findings were clear: the flavanols made no significant difference to the risk of developing heart disease, diabetes, or cancer. There was one positive note — a reduction in cardiovascular (心血管的) deaths — but this single outcome is not solid proof of benefit. Crucially, obtaining a high share of flavanols from commercial dark chocolate introduces serious disadvantages. To counter cocoa’s bitterness, manufacturers add large amounts of sugar. It means a person would also consume a substantial portion of the daily recommended limit of fat, which is known to raise cholesterol (胆固醇) and harm heart health. A far healthier way to get flavanols is from foods like apples, nuts, strawberries, or green tea. Ultimately, the celebrated health benefits of dark chocolate appear to be rooted more in marketing and wishful thinking than in robust science. While enjoying it as an occasional treat is fine, relying on it as a health food is misguided. True wellness comes from a balanced diet rich in various fruits, vegetables, and beans—not from a single, sugary treat. 8. What is a common belief about dark chocolate? A It has inconsistent benefits. B. Its benefits come at a high cost. C. It contributes to physical health. D. Its advantages rely on long-term intake. 9. What is a result of taking in flavanols from dark chocolate? A. Faster fat burning. B. Resistance to cholesterol. C. Reduction of cancer risks. D. Increase in sugar consumption. 10. What does the underlined word “robust” in the last paragraph mean? A. Basic. B. Solid. C. Advanced. D. Emerging. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. The Bitter Truth About Dark Chocolate B. A Guide to Choosing Healthy Chocolate C. The Impact of Flavanols on Your Health D. Marketing vs. Science in the Food Industry D You had to be really unlucky to be on the China National Highway 110 on August 14, 2025. One of the longest traffic jams on record, trapping thousands of vehicles over more than 100 kilometers and lasting more than 10 days. Would it make you impatient? I strongly suspect that even the calmest would answer with a resounding “yes”! And yet philosophers and poets alike sell patience as a “virtue”, implying that having it is always a good thing. To me, it’s far more useful to think about patience as something we do rather than something we have. Consider first what it means to be impatient. We all know the feeling: fingers drumming the table, leg bouncing. But why does this frustrating feeling arise? Most emotion researchers take it as a functionalist perspective. Our mind and body are trying to tell us to get moving, to find a way to bring the unpleasant delay to an end. In a series of recent studies with more than 1,400 participants, we found that people were more impatient when the thing they were waiting for was very appealing — and when the wait itself was unappealing. Being delayed for something you hate, such as an unpleasant work event, is easier than a similar delay for a much-anticipated performance by your favorite band. If impatience is an emotion, what is patience? In technical terms, it’s a form of emotion regulation like reminding ourselves that the scary movie isn’t real. When we start to feel impatient, we can let that feeling rage—or we can regulate it. Are you waiting weeks to find out if you have got that job? Dive into your favorite hobby to distract yourself for a few hours. There’s still a lot we don’t know about patience, including why some people seem to find it easier than others and how we can get better at it. Fortunately, those are simpler questions to answer when we reduce the challenge from virtue acquisition to emotion regulation. Ultimately, it may seem like a sharp contrast to poetic descriptions of virtue, but I’ll take practical wisdom over virtue any day. 12. What is the author’s attitude to people’s impatience in traffic jams on the National Highway 110? A. Understanding. B. Dismissive. C. Indifferent. D. Critical. 13. According to the text, which of the following situations would make people the most impatient? A. Being stuck in a traffic jam in a comfortable car. B. Being delayed by bad weather on the way to work. C. Waiting for an important but unpleasant work meeting. D. Waiting in a long queue for an expected football game. 14. The author views patience as _________. A. an acquired virtue B. a born personality C. a form of releasing emotion D. a behavior of regulating emotion 15. What is the purpose of the text? A To justify a virtue. B. To redefine patience. C. To introduce strategies. D. To identify impatience. 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。 After 20 years of teaching I thought I’d heard every excuse from students trying to get a better grade. But recently I heard a new complaint: “My grade doesn’t reflect the effort I put into this course.” ___16___ In the past, students understood it and they knew “A” required great work. Yet today, Generation Z expect to be rewarded for the quantity of their effort rather than the quality of their knowledge. In surveys, two-thirds of college students say that “trying hard” should be a factor in their grades. ___17___ It’s the result of a misunderstanding about one popular educational theories. Psychologists have long found that rewarding effort helps form a strong work ethic and reinforces learning. ___18___ We’ve gone from praising effort to treating it as an end in itself. We’ve failed to remind them that working hard doesn’t guarantee doing a good job. There’s a reason we award Olympic medals to the athletes who swim the fastest, not the ones who train the hardest. What counts is not mere effort but the progress and result. The ideal response to a disappointing grade is not to complain that your diligence wasn’t rewarded. ___19___ Trying harder isn’t always the answer. Sometimes it’s working smarter, and other times, it’s working on something else altogether. Devotion is just one of the many contributing factors to achievement. Ability, opportunity and luck count, too. Now in my classes, students are assessed on the quality of their written essays, class participation, group presentations and final papers or exams. I make it clear that “A” is not granted for effort itself; it is earned through mastery of knowledge. The true measure of learning is not the time and energy you put in. ___20___ A. Teachers are to blame. B. It is to ask how to improve. C. This isn’t Generation Z’s fault. D. “B” may not fully reflect your dedication. E. It’s the knowledge and skills you acquire. F. High marks are for excellence, not perseverance. G. But we’ve taken the practice of celebrating diligence too far. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was late afternoon that day, yet still hot.

For decades, it had been a shelter for book lovers. The wooden sign above the door, weathered but proud, read “Hopkins’ Books” in brick red. It had been a constant place where time moved slower with the first turn of a page. Now, it was closing. The news felt like a physical blow to David, a quiet college student who had grown up reading in the cozy corners of the shop. The smell of old paper was the smell of his childhood, witnessing his growth. He couldn’t imagine the street without its warm, inviting light. When the news spread throughout the entire neighborhood, worry was written all over everyone’s faces. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, a profitable upgrade. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. 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。 Paragraph 1: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
