B In what would become one of her last interviews, Jane sat with a faded photograph in her hands. The image showed the baby Jane holding her first birthday gift from her father — a stuffed chimpanzee Jubilee. “My mother’s friends were horrified by this toy, thinking it would frighten me and give me nightmares,” she recalled. Instead, it led to her sense of wonder about the world and changed humankind’s understanding of animals. Her fascination with Africa began not long after she learned to read. She discovered Dr. Doolittle at eight, and Tarzan and the Apes by ten. It was then that she announced she was going to grow up, go to Africa, live with wild animals, and write books about them. This was in 1944, when World War II was raging and the idea of women as professionals “just wasn’t on the table.” London-born Jane always credited her parents — businessman Mortimer Herbert and novelist Margaret Joseph — for their support. When other children teased her unusual dream, her mother reassured her: true dreams demand tireless work, seizing opportunity, and never giving in to doubt. This firm belief became her life’s foundation. A memory from age four captures this: she had disappeared for four hours, causing considerable concern, only to be discovered sitting contentedly in the henhouse, absorbed in watching the hens and wondering where their eggs came from. Instead of scolding her, her mother saw the profound wonder in her daughter’s eyes. Her work defined her life — right up to the end. Despite her advanced age Jane traveled 300 days a year, delivering talks to students, scientists, and academics. She was on a speaking tour in the U.S. when she departed this life recently in her sleep at a hotel in Los Angeles. Tributes (颂词) flooded in from far and wide. “Jane’s work on primates and the importance of conservation opened the doors for generations of women in science,” Barack Obama said. Prince William praised her “infinite curiosity, compassion, and pioneering spirit. She challenged us all to make a difference and inspired me and countless others to work to protect our planet.” 4. Why is the toy Jubilee mentioned? A. It shows the fears it created in her childhood. B. It highlights its inspiring role in her life. C. It justifies her bond with family social circle. D. It functions as her first scientific subject. 5. What does “wasn’t on the table” suggest in paragraph 2? A. Wildlife study was unsuitable for women. B. Scientific practice was set under the table. C. Society could accommodate girls' ambition. D. Female scientists were less acknowledged. 6. What quality did Jane get from her family education? A. Boundless curiosity and persistence. B. Strong ambition and competitiveness. C. A creative and imaginative mindset. D. A gentle and caring heart for creatures. 7. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To launch a pioneering campaign. B. To introduce a promising career. C. To remember a guardian of nature. D. To awaken a passion for wildlife. C Much has been written about how modern lifestyles mean we are no longer getting enough sleep, unlike our ancestors living in less technologically advanced times. However, an analysis of 54 sleep studies has found that people in small, non-industrialized societies actually get less sleep than those in more industrialized regions. It is often assumed that the rise of electronic devices like smartphones means that people today are sleeping less than in the recent past. Many studies that report a decrease in sleep in the past few decades are based on asking people how long they sleep, which is an unreliable measure. Research using more reliable assessment tools, such as physical activity monitors, hasn’t found a decrease over recent decades. But these studies are done in industrialized countries, leaving open the question of whether people got more sleep prior to (在……之前) industrialization. The availability of wearable sleep monitors has made it easier to study sleep in non-industrialized societies. McKinnon and her colleague David Samson have now analyzed 54 sleep studies, comparing sleeping habits in industrialized societies, including the US, Australia and Sri Lanka, with those in smaller, non-industrialized communities, including Indigenous peoples in the Amazon, Madagascar and Tanna Island in the Pacific. The 54 studies involved direct measurements of sleep in people aged 18 and over who had no serious health conditions. The pair found that in non-industrialized societies, the average was 6.4 hours, compared with 7.1 hours in industrial societies. They also found that people in non-industrialized societies were asleep for 74 percent of the time they were in bed, compared with 88 percent in industrial societies, a measure known as sleep efficiency. Samson owes the higher sleep duration and efficiency in industrialized societies to safer and more secure sleep conditions. He remarks, “We no longer need to worry about enemies or predators at night.” “While these studies involve only 866 people in total, the data set is the most comprehensive (全面的) yet,” says Samson. 8. What is the misconception about sleep? A. People with less advanced technologies sleep less. B. People in non-industrialized societies get less sleep. C. The increasing use of phones impacts sleep positively. D. Modern lifestyles lead to a decrease in people’s sleep time. 9. How did McKinnon and Samson conduct their research? A. By analyzing previous studies on sleep. B. By comparing the data set of sleep habits. C. By recording people’s sleep time directly. D. By measuring sleep duration and efficiency. 10. What can be learned from McKinnon and Samon’s analysis? A. Tanna Islanders have less sleep than Australians. B Sri Lankans sleep 6.4 hours per day on average. C. Amazons enjoy safe and secure sleep conditions. D. Americans have lower sleep efficiency. 11. What is Samson’s attitude towards the 54 studies? A. Doubtful B. Neutral(中立的) C. Indifferent(冷淡的) D. Favorable D The global shipping industry is alone responsible for three percent of the total greenhouse gas emissions (排放)humans produce. If left unaddressed, in a few decades, it will account for over 10 percent of the total man-made emissions. A new study from MIT researchers reveals a practical solution to this problem. The study authors have developed an emission-free approach to produce hydrogen (H₂) fuel, which generates only water when burned, for commercial ships. They also claim they can make hydrogen fuel using easily accessible resources. This isn’t the first study proposing the use of aluminum (a silver-gray metal that soda cans are made from) for producing hydrogen fuel. It’s already well known that when aluminum and water react, hydrogen is formed as one of the byproducts. Such chemical reactions, however, come with a sort of a dilemma: It only works when aluminum is used in its pure state. The moment aluminum meets with oxygen, such as in air, its surface immediately forms a protective layer that prevents further reactions. During their study, the researchers turned recycled soda cans into small aluminum balls. They pretreated the aluminum balls with a rare-metal alloy (合金) that effectively purifies aluminum, making it into a pure form that can react with seawater to generate hydrogen. The salt ions (离子) in the seawater can in turn attract and recover the alloy, which can be reused to generate more hydrogen. The team found that this reaction successfully produced hydrogen gas, though slowly. They experimented with different chemicals including the ones that are typically found in kitchens and realized that adding coffee made a difference. “A low concentration of caffeine is enough to produce the same amount of hydrogen in just five minutes, compared to two hours without it,” the study authors note. “The next part is to figure out how to use this for trucks, trains, and maybe airplanes,” Aly Kombargi, lead study author, said. 12. How can the MIT researchers contribute to the shipping industry? A. By providing a clean energy source. B. By developing new fuel storage methods. C. By improving fuel efficiency in existing ships. D. By planning more convenient shipping routes 13. What is the challenge when making hydrogen from aluminum? A Hydrogen is too expensive to make. B. The chemical reaction happens too slow. C. Aluminum easily reacts with oxygen. D. The metal surface prevents further reactions. 14. What can be inferred about the MIT researchers’ hydrogen generation process? A. It requires large quantities of alloy. B. It produces significant waste chemicals. C. It creates hydrogen in a sustainable cycle. D. It generates hydrogen with low purity. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Hydrogen Fuel: A Game Changer of Transportation B. Cans+ Seawater+ Coffee: A Greener Shipping Future C. Coffee: The Secret Substance for Clean Shipping Fuel D. Aluminum: A Pioneering Material for Hydrogen Produce 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。 There Are Things to Love About Winter As soon as the temperature drops, my husband experiences a change. Like a bear in reverse, he comes alive in winter. I am his opposite. ____16____ I spent last weekend in a state of gloom, pulling out our family’s collection of giant, shapeless coats. Many people love winter, but if you’re not one of them, “you don’t have to just accept that you’ll be bad-tempered at this time of year,” said Kari Leibowitz, a health psychologist and author of “How to Winter: Harness Your Mindset to Thrive on Cold, Dark or Difficult Days.” It’s not easy to embrace dark mornings and icy roads, she said. ____17____Instead of “wishing away winter and waiting for spring,” Dr. Leibowitz said, lean into the cooling weather by planning cozy activities and rituals.

And start planning some “slow hobbies” we can do indoors. E. If the holidays tire me out, I can carve out time to rest and recover in January. F. I feel humbled by their size, knowing just how much more lies beneath the surface, too. G. But when you write off wintertime, she added, you’re writing off a quarter of your life. 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,从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 The August sun beat down without mercy (仁慈).

It was another boring day after school. I dragged my feet home as I sighed. Yet another uneventful day, I thought. Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse. The lift lobby (电梯间) of my flat was old and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied over many years. I reached my flat’s lobby, and pressed the lift button and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbour, hobbled (蹒跚) in. She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded old-fashioned dress. I held the lift door open, flashing a friendly smile, and politely greeted her. I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons. She thanked me for being so polite, then we were silent for the rest of the ride. The lift fell down increasingly fast. There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew slower and slower. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat. Unfortunately, the lift came to an abrupt stop at the fifth floor. I pressed the buttons hard several times, but it was of no help. The lights on the buttons had gone out. It soon dawned on me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical (歇斯底里). “We will never get out!” she cried with her face pale. It had become a colourless mask. I had no time to lose. I pressed the bell in the lift immediately. The sound was surely deafening, but what other choice did I have? Mrs Lim burst into tears. I tried my very best to comfort her, telling her that everything would be all right and that we needed to find out how to get out safely. Mrs Lim began having trouble breathing, and I immediately helped her sit down and loosened her collar. Paragraph 1: Several minutes passed, but no help came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度上学期2025级 1月月考英语试卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话前，你将有时间阅读各个小题，每小题5秒钟；听完后，各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.What does the woman suggest doing?

This was in 1944, when World War II was raging and the idea of women as professionals “just wasn’t on the table.” London-born Jane always credited her parents — businessman Mortimer Herbert and novelist Margaret Joseph — for their support. When other children teased her unusual dream, her mother reassured her: true dreams demand tireless work, seizing opportunity, and never giving in to doubt. This firm belief became her life’s foundation. A memory from age four captures this: she had disappeared for four hours, causing considerable concern, only to be discovered sitting contentedly in the henhouse, absorbed in watching the hens and wondering where their eggs came from. Instead of scolding her, her mother saw the profound wonder in her daughter’s eyes. Her work defined her life — right up to the end. Despite her advanced age Jane traveled 300 days a year, delivering talks to students, scientists, and academics. She was on a speaking tour in the U.S. when she departed this life recently in her sleep at a hotel in Los Angeles. Tributes (颂词) flooded in from far and wide. “Jane’s work on primates and the importance of conservation opened the doors for generations of women in science,” Barack Obama said. Prince William praised her “infinite curiosity, compassion, and pioneering spirit. She challenged us all to make a difference and inspired me and countless others to work to protect our planet.” 4. Why is the toy Jubilee mentioned? A. It shows the fears it created in her childhood. B. It highlights its inspiring role in her life. C. It justifies her bond with family social circle. D. It functions as her first scientific subject. 5. What does “wasn’t on the table” suggest in paragraph 2? A. Wildlife study was unsuitable for women. B. Scientific practice was set under the table. C. Society could accommodate girls' ambition. D. Female scientists were less acknowledged. 6. What quality did Jane get from her family education? A. Boundless curiosity and persistence. B. Strong ambition and competitiveness. C. A creative and imaginative mindset. D. A gentle and caring heart for creatures. 7. What’s the purpose of the text? A. To launch a pioneering campaign. B. To introduce a promising career. C. To remember a guardian of nature. D. To awaken a passion for wildlife. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. A 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了动物学家简·古道尔的生平，包括童年玩具带来的启发、追梦历程、家庭支持、毕生的科研与环保工作，以及她对后世的深远影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“The image showed the baby Jane holding her first birthday gift from her father — a stuffed chimpanzee Jubilee. “My mother’s friends were horrified by this toy, thinking it would frighten me and give me nightmares,” she recalled. Instead, it led to her sense of wonder about the world and changed humankind’s understanding of animals.(照片上，婴儿时期的简抱着父亲送的第一个生日礼物——一只毛绒黑猩猩朱比利。“我母亲的朋友们都很害怕这个玩具，认为它会吓到我，让我做噩梦，”她回忆道。相反，它激发了她对世界的好奇心，并改变了人类对动物的理解。)”可知，玩具朱比利并未如他人担忧的那样吓到简，反而激发了她的好奇心，对她的人生产生了重要启发。故选B项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“It was then that she announced she was going to grow up, go to Africa, live with wild animals, and write books about them. This was in 1944, when World War II was raging and the idea of women as professionals “just wasn’t on the table.”(就在那时，她宣布自己长大后要去非洲，和野生动物生活在一起，并写关于它们的书。那是在1944年，第二次世界大战正激烈进行，女性成为专业人士的想法“根本不在考虑范围内”。)”可知，简在1944年提出要从事野生动物研究的职业理想，而当时的社会背景下，女性成为专业人士的想法不被接受，即“野生动物研究不适合女性”。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“When other children teased her unusual dream, her mother reassured her: true dreams demand tireless work, seizing opportunity, and never giving in to doubt. This firm belief became her life’s foundation. A memory from age four captures this: she had disappeared for four hours, causing considerable concern, only to be discovered sitting contentedly in the henhouse, absorbed in watching the hens and wondering where their eggs came from.(当其他孩子嘲笑她不寻常的梦想时，她的母亲安慰她：真正的梦想需要不懈的努力、抓住机会，永远不要向怀疑屈服。这个坚定的信念成为了她人生的基础。一段四岁时的回忆体现了这一点：她消失了四个小时，引起了极大的担忧，结果发现她心满意足地坐在鸡舍里，全神贯注地看着母鸡，想知道它们的蛋是从哪里来的。)”可知，简从家庭教育中获得了“不懈坚持”和“无限好奇心”。故选A项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Her work defined her life — right up to the end. Despite her advanced age Jane traveled 300 days a year, delivering talks to students, scientists, and academics. She was on a speaking tour in the U.S. when she departed this life recently in her sleep at a hotel in Los Angeles.(她的工作定义了她的一生——直到生命的尽头。尽管年事已高，简每年仍旅行300天，向学生、科学家和学者们发表演讲。最近，她在美国进行巡回演讲时，在洛杉矶的一家酒店睡觉时与世长辞。)”以及第五段中的“Tributes flooded in from far and wide. “Jane’s work on primates and the importance of conservation opened the doors for generations of women in science,” Barack Obama said. Prince William praised her “infinite curiosity, compassion, and pioneering spirit. She challenged us all to make a difference and inspired me and countless others to work to protect our planet.”(来自四面八方的颂词如潮水般涌来。巴拉克·奥巴马说：“简在灵长类动物研究和环境保护重要性方面的工作，为一代又一代的女性科学家打开了大门。”威廉王子称赞她“拥有无限的好奇心、同情心和开拓精神。她激励我们所有人做出改变，也鼓舞着我和无数人致力于保护我们的星球。”)”可知，文章详细回顾了简·古道尔毕生致力于灵长类动物研究与环保事业的事迹，以及她去世后获得的广泛赞誉，所以本文的目的是缅怀这位伟大的自然守护者。故选C项。 C Much has been written about how modern lifestyles mean we are no longer getting enough sleep, unlike our ancestors living in less technologically advanced times. However, an analysis of 54 sleep studies has found that people in small, non-industrialized societies actually get less sleep than those in more industrialized regions. It is often assumed that the rise of electronic devices like smartphones means that people today are sleeping less than in the recent past. Many studies that report a decrease in sleep in the past few decades are based on asking people how long they sleep, which is an unreliable measure. Research using more reliable assessment tools, such as physical activity monitors, hasn’t found a decrease over recent decades. But these studies are done in industrialized countries, leaving open the question of whether people got more sleep prior to (在……之前) industrialization. The availability of wearable sleep monitors has made it easier to study sleep in non-industrialized societies. McKinnon and her colleague David Samson have now analyzed 54 sleep studies, comparing sleeping habits in industrialized societies, including the US, Australia and Sri Lanka, with those in smaller, non-industrialized communities, including Indigenous peoples in the Amazon, Madagascar and Tanna Island in the Pacific. The 54 studies involved direct measurements of sleep in people aged 18 and over who had no serious health conditions. The pair found that in non-industrialized societies, the average was 6.4 hours, compared with 7.1 hours in industrial societies. They also found that people in non-industrialized societies were asleep for 74 percent of the time they were in bed, compared with 88 percent in industrial societies, a measure known as sleep efficiency. Samson owes the higher sleep duration and efficiency in industrialized societies to safer and more secure sleep conditions. He remarks, “We no longer need to worry about enemies or predators at night.” “While these studies involve only 866 people in total, the data set is the most comprehensive (全面的) yet,” says Samson. 8. What is the misconception about sleep? A. People with less advanced technologies sleep less. B. People in non-industrialized societies get less sleep. C. The increasing use of phones impacts sleep positively. D. Modern lifestyles lead to a decrease in people’s sleep time. 9. How did McKinnon and Samson conduct their research? A. By analyzing previous studies on sleep. B. By comparing the data set of sleep habits. C. By recording people’s sleep time directly. D. By measuring sleep duration and efficiency. 10. What can be learned from McKinnon and Samon’s analysis? A. Tanna Islanders have less sleep than Australians. B. Sri Lankans sleep 6.4 hours per day on average. C. Amazons enjoy safe and secure sleep conditions. D. Americans have lower sleep efficiency. 11. What is Samson’s attitude towards the 54 studies? A. Doubtful B. Neutral(中立的) C. Indifferent(冷淡的) D. Favorable 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了对54项睡眠研究进行分析后，发现非工业化社会的人比工业化社会的人睡眠时间更少。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Much has been written about how modern lifestyles mean we are no longer getting enough sleep, unlike our ancestors living in less technologically advanced times. (关于现代生活方式如何意味着我们不再像生活在技术不那么发达时代的祖先那样获得足够的睡眠，已经有很多文章了)”可知，关于睡眠的误解是现代生活方式导致人们的睡眠时间减少。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“McKinnon and her colleague David Samson have now analyzed 54 sleep studies, comparing sleeping habits in industrialized societies, including the US, Australia and Sri Lanka, with those in smaller, non-industrialized communities, including Indigenous peoples in the Amazon, Madagascar and Tanna Island in the Pacific.(McKinnon和她的同事David Samson现在分析了54项睡眠研究，比较了工业化社会（包括美国、澳大利亚和斯里兰卡）的睡眠习惯与较小的非工业化社区（包括亚马逊、马达加斯加和太平洋坦纳岛的原住民）的睡眠习惯)”可知，McKinnon和Samson主要是通过比较不同社会（工业化社会和非工业化社会）的睡眠习惯数据集来进行研究的。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“McKinnon and her colleague David Samson have now analyzed 54 sleep studies, comparing sleeping habits in industrialized societies, including the US, Australia and Sri Lanka, with those in smaller, non-industrialized communities, including Indigenous peoples in the Amazon, Madagascar and Tanna Island in the Pacific.(McKinnon和她的同事David Samson现在分析了54项睡眠研究，比较了工业化社会（包括美国、澳大利亚和斯里兰卡）的睡眠习惯与较小的非工业化社区（包括亚马逊、马达加斯加和太平洋坦纳岛的原住民）的睡眠习惯)”以及第四段中“The pair found that in non-industrialized societies, the average was 6.4 hours, compared with 7.1 hours in industrial societies.(两人发现，在非工业化社会，平均睡眠时间为6.4小时，而在工业化社会为7.1小时)”可知，Tanna岛人属于非工业化社会，澳大利亚人属于工业化社会，因此Tanna岛人比澳大利亚人睡得少。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“While these studies involve only 866 people in total, the data set is the most comprehensive yet,” says Samson.(Samson说：“虽然这些研究总共只涉及866人，但这是迄今为止最全面的数据集。”)”可知，Samson对这54项研究持支持的态度。故选D。 D The global shipping industry is alone responsible for three percent of the total greenhouse gas emissions (排放)humans produce. If left unaddressed, in a few decades, it will account for over 10 percent of the total man-made emissions. A new study from MIT researchers reveals a practical solution to this problem. The study authors have developed an emission-free approach to produce hydrogen (H₂) fuel, which generates only water when burned, for commercial ships. They also claim they can make hydrogen fuel using easily accessible resources. This isn’t the first study proposing the use of aluminum (a silver-gray metal that soda cans are made from) for producing hydrogen fuel. It’s already well known that when aluminum and water react, hydrogen is formed as one of the byproducts. Such chemical reactions, however, come with a sort of a dilemma: It only works when aluminum is used in its pure state. The moment aluminum meets with oxygen, such as in air, its surface immediately forms a protective layer that prevents further reactions. During their study, the researchers turned recycled soda cans into small aluminum balls. They pretreated the aluminum balls with a rare-metal alloy (合金) that effectively purifies aluminum, making it into a pure form that can react with seawater to generate hydrogen. The salt ions (离子) in the seawater can in turn attract and recover the alloy, which can be reused to generate more hydrogen. The team found that this reaction successfully produced hydrogen gas, though slowly. They experimented with different chemicals including the ones that are typically found in kitchens and realized that adding coffee made a difference. “A low concentration of caffeine is enough to produce the same amount of hydrogen in just five minutes, compared to two hours without it,” the study authors note. “The next part is to figure out how to use this for trucks, trains, and maybe airplanes,” Aly Kombargi, lead study author, said. 12. How can the MIT researchers contribute to the shipping industry? A. By providing a clean energy source. B. By developing new fuel storage methods. C. By improving fuel efficiency in existing ships. D. By planning more convenient shipping routes 13. What is the challenge when making hydrogen from aluminum? A. Hydrogen is too expensive to make. B. The chemical reaction happens too slow. C. Aluminum easily reacts with oxygen. D. The metal surface prevents further reactions. 14. What can be inferred about the MIT researchers’ hydrogen generation process? A. It requires large quantities of alloy. B. It produces significant waste chemicals. C. It creates hydrogen in a sustainable cycle. D. It generates hydrogen with low purity. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Hydrogen Fuel: A Game Changer of Transportation B. Cans+ Seawater+ Coffee: A Greener Shipping Future C. Coffee: The Secret Substance for Clean Shipping Fuel D. Aluminum: A Pioneering Material for Hydrogen Produce 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。MIT研究人员提出一种利用回收铝罐、海水和咖啡因可持续生产氢燃料的创新方法，以解决航运业温室气体排放问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“A new study from MIT researchers reveals a practical solution to this problem. The study authors have developed an emission-free approach to produce hydrogen (H₂) fuel, which generates only water when burned, for commercial ships.(麻省理工学院研究人员的一项新研究为这个问题提供了一个实用的解决方案。该研究的作者开发了一种零排放的方法，可以生产用于商船的氢燃料，氢燃料燃烧时只产生水。)”可知，麻省理工学院的研究人员通过提供清洁的能源来源为航运业做出了贡献。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The moment aluminum meets with oxygen, such as in air, its surface immediately forms a protective layer that prevents further reactions.(当铝与氧气接触时，比如在空气中，其表面会立即形成一层保护膜，从而阻止进一步的反应。)”可知，从铝中制取氢气时会面临的挑战是金属表面起到了阻止进一步反应的作用。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“During their study, the researchers turned recycled soda cans into small aluminum balls. They pretreated the aluminum balls with a rare-metal alloy(合金)that effectively purifies aluminum, making it into a pure form that can react with seawater to generate hydrogen. The salt ions(离子)in the seawater can in turn attract and recover the alloy, which can be reused to generate more hydrogen.(在研究过程中，研究人员将回收的碳酸饮料罐加工成了小块的铝球。他们先用一种稀有金属合金对这些铝球进行预处理，这种合金能有效净化铝，使其变成一种纯净的形式，能够与海水发生反应从而产生氢气。海水中的盐离子能够反过来吸引并吸附这种合金，从而使其得以回收利用，进而能够再次用于制取更多的氢气。)”可知，麻省理工学院研究人员的氢气生成过程是在一个可持续的循环过程中生成氢气。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。分析全文内容可知，MIT研究人员提出一种利用回收铝罐、海水和咖啡因可持续生产氢燃料的创新方法，以解决航运业温室气体排放问题，B选项“罐子+海水+咖啡：更环保的航运未来”涵盖三个核心要素（铝罐/海水/咖啡）和环保目标，适合用作文章标题。故选B项。 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。 There Are Things to Love About Winter As soon as the temperature drops, my husband experiences a change. Like a bear in reverse, he comes alive in winter. I am his opposite. ____16____ I spent last weekend in a state of gloom, pulling out our family’s collection of giant, shapeless coats. Many people love winter, but if you’re not one of them, “you don’t have to just accept that you’ll be bad-tempered at this time of year,” said Kari Leibowitz, a health psychologist and author of “How to Winter: Harness Your Mindset to Thrive on Cold, Dark or Difficult Days.” It’s not easy to embrace dark mornings and icy roads, she said. ____17____Instead of “wishing away winter and waiting for spring,” Dr. Leibowitz said, lean into the cooling weather by planning cozy activities and rituals.

In my opinion, it can be a fun way to record campus life, but it also has its drawbacks. Not only may it distract us from our studies and even disrupt the school order, but it might also cause unnecessary comparisons and affect our self-esteem when the videos don’t get the expected response. I suggest we should limit the time for filming and choose proper places. Let’s focus more on our academic tasks and make good use of our time on campus. Thank you! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于演讲稿。要求考生针对部分同学在校园内用手机拍摄短视频的现象陈述看法并提出建议。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 记录：record → document 缺点：drawback → disadvantage 分散注意力：distract → divert 建议：suggest → propose 2 句式拓展 并列句变复合句 原句：In my opinion, it can be a fun way to record campus life, but it also has its drawbacks. 拓展句：In my opinion, it can be a fun way that we can use to record campus life, but it also has its drawbacks. 【点睛】[高分句型 1] Not only may it distract us from our studies and even disrupt the school order, but it might also cause unnecessary comparisons and affect our self esteem when the videos don’t get the expected response.

It was another boring day after school. I dragged my feet home as I sighed. Yet another uneventful day, I thought. Little did I know that the day would take a turn for the worse. The lift lobby (电梯间) of my flat was old and dirty. The walls, which were painted white, had been dirtied over many years. I reached my flat’s lobby, and pressed the lift button and went in. Just then, Mrs Lim, my elderly neighbour, hobbled (蹒跚) in. She looked ancient with tissue paper white hair, wearing a faded old-fashioned dress. I held the lift door open, flashing a friendly smile, and politely greeted her. I asked her how she felt that day and pressed the buttons. She thanked me for being so polite, then we were silent for the rest of the ride. The lift fell down increasingly fast. There were loud clanking sounds here and there while the lift grew slower and slower. My heart beat hard and fast as my hands turned cold and wet with sweat. Unfortunately, the lift came to an abrupt stop at the fifth floor. I pressed the buttons hard several times, but it was of no help. The lights on the buttons had gone out. It soon dawned on me that we were trapped. An icy fear crept up my spine. Mrs Lim was hysterical (歇斯底里). “We will never get out!” she cried with her face pale. It had become a colourless mask. I had no time to lose. I pressed the bell in the lift immediately. The sound was surely deafening, but what other choice did I have? Mrs Lim burst into tears. I tried my very best to comfort her, telling her that everything would be all right and that we needed to find out how to get out safely. Mrs Lim began having trouble breathing, and I immediately helped her sit down and loosened her collar. Paragraph 1: Several minutes passed, but no help came. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Several minutes passed, but no help came. The air inside the lift grew stale, and panic started to set in. Mrs Lim's condition was worsening, and I felt a sense of helplessness creeping over me. I tried to stay calm and think of a way out, but the situation seemed dire. The silence was deafening, broken only by Mrs Lim’s labored breathing and occasional sobs. Time seemed to stretch on endlessly as we waited for a miracle. Bang! My hopes were lifted when I heard the firefighters on the other side of the lift door. Relief flooded through me as I realized help had finally arrived. The sound of tools clanging against the door signaled their efforts to rescue us. Moments later, the door was pried open, and fresh air rushed in. We were safe. Mrs Lim was quickly attended to by the paramedics, and I was filled with gratitude for their swift response. As we were escorted out of the lift, I couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of appreciation for the fragility of life and the importance of helping others in times of need. 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事发展的顺序为线索展开，主要描述了主人公放学后和邻居Mrs Lim乘坐电梯时突然电梯失去了控制，发出各种异样的声响，最终在五楼突然停下来，导致两人被困在其中。Mrs Lim的情绪逐渐失控，主人公尽力安抚Mrs Lim的恐慌情绪并帮助她解开衣领使呼吸顺畅，同时努力寻找解决困境的办法。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“几分钟过去了，但没有人来帮忙。”可知，第一段可描写随着时间的流逝，没有人来帮忙，我开始紧张起来，林女士的状况开始变遭，我想办法脱身但做不到，我们焦急地等待救援的相关细节。 ②由第二段首句内容“砰!当我听到消防队员在电梯门的另一边时，我的希望到来了。”可知，第二段可描写当消防队员到来展开救援时我如释重负的心情，门被打开后，我们安全得救，林女士得到医护人员的救助，我对消防队员的迅速救援充满了感激之情的相关细节。 2.续写线索：电梯内的气氛开始紧张——林女士的状况不好——我极度焦虑——等待救援————消防队员赶到—— 我感到放松——安全获救——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 哭泣：sob/cry ② 救援：rescue/save ③ 帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ① 恐慌：panic/fright ② 放松：relief/relaxation 【点睛】[高分句型1] The silence was deafening, broken only by Mrs Lim's labored breathing and occasional sobs. (使用了过去分词作状语) [高分句型2] As we were escorted out of the lift, I couldn’t help but feel a profound sense of appreciation for the fragility of life and the importance of helping others in times of need.
