It’s about 599 kilometers from New York City (NYC) by road, and you can travel there by bus. Why should you choose to take the bus? The cheapest way to travel to Montreal from NYC is by bus. The bus company operates daily service, with one-way fares sometimes as low as $65. The bus departs from Port Authority and arrives at the Montreal long-distance bus station in eight and a half to nine and a half hours. When is the best time? Unless you like the idea of cold temperatures, then summer is the best time to visit Montreal. The peak tourist season runs from June through August, so your best bet for smaller crowds is probably May or September when hotels have more vacancies and the weather is mild enough to be outside. What can you do? Montreal is a great entry point to broader Canada travels, but there is a lot to do right in the city, such as visiting the ornate Notre-Dame Basilica, or exploring the Montreal Botanical Garden. Similarly, the Montreal Biodome, located at Olympic Park, replicates four American ecosystems, all indoors. When it’s nice outside, you can get a good viewing platform from the top of Mount Royal. What must be kept in mind? Upon reaching the Canadian border, all bus passengers will need to get off the bus and pick up their belongings and luggage, which will be inspected by Canadian officials. Unclaimed bags will be removed. You’ll be asked what the reason is for your trip. Once the process is finished, you’ll return your bags to the bus and continue your journey. Make sure you have reviewed the immigration and customs information to ensure you carry the proper documents. 21. What is the advantage of taking the bus to Montreal from NYC? A. Saving money. B. Great service. C. A beautiful view. D. Exciting experience. 22. Which place is the best one to get a full view of Montreal? A. Montreal Biodome. B. Mount Royal. C. Notre-Dame Basilica. D. Montreal Botanical Garden. 23. Why do the passengers get off the bus as soon as they reach Canada? A. For a headcount. B. For luggage inspection. C. For changing travel buses. D. For getting unclaimed bags. B Christine Rowsey spent three tough years working full-time as a financial risk analyst to support her 5-year-old son Bryson, while taking evening courses at a community college to pursue her nursing dream. “I didn’t have any money or possessions left; all I had was a fragile dream,” she recalled with emotion. That dream took root three years earlier, when she suffered the tragic loss of her husband, who had been diagnosed with cancer. Her husband fought for his life in the intensive care unit for seven months, undergoing more than a dozen operations. However, in the end, he left Christine forever. It was the sincere and constant support from the hospital’s nursing staff during that painful experience that inspired her to quit her original job and determinedly pursue a nursing career to help others the way she had been helped. Just as she was about to start formal nursing courses, her misfortunes brought her progress to a halt — her car was repossessed (收回). She couldn’t travel to class. Luckily, she discovered Volunteers of America (VOA) Michigan’s “Cars Helping People” program in Pontiac, which provided donated vehicles at fair prices for people in need, and she worked out a reasonable payment plan. She then enrolled in Oakland University’s one-year licensed practical nursing program, but she struggled with heavy tuition fees and the double pressure of studying hard as a top student and taking good care of Bryson. Another program run by VOA, the Health Profession Opportunity Grants, came to her rescue. It not only covered her full tuition but also offered an allowance for Bryson’s daily needs like food and gas, and even paid for her certification test fees. With the guidance from VOA’s employment specialist Rene DeLoach, who supported her through coursework, license application and job hunting, Christine finally achieved her goal. Now working as a licensed practical nurse at Riverview Health in Detroit, she is already pursuing her Registered Nurse certificate and sharing her inspiring story with young people. “VOA helped me rewrite my life exactly the way I wanted,” she said gratefully. 24. Why did Christine decide to work as a nurse? A. To care for her son. B. To inspire patients. C To repay the kindness. D. To earn stable income. 25. What did VOA mean to Christine? A. A life changer. B. A famous charity. C. A training institution. D. A belief in her heart. 26. Which of the following can best describe Christine? A. Determined. B. Brilliant. C. Creative. D. Confident. 27. What does Christine’s story show? A. He who laughs last laughs longest. B. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. C. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. D. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. C As the U. S. Midwest was experiencing another heat wave, temperatures and humidity (湿热) in the region were being further fueled by “sweating” corn. If you didn’t have sweaty produce on your 2025 bingo card, you’re not alone; but “corn sweat” is a real phenomenon that adds moisture (水分) to the atmosphere and makes hot conditions even hotter and more unpleasant. It’s just one unexpected way in which human activities, from agriculture to deforestation and pollution, can have surprising effects on regional weather patterns, sometimes enhancing the impacts of climate change. Corn, like other plants, uses a process called evapotranspiration to draw water from the soil, take what it needs to function, and release the rest into the atmosphere via evaporation (蒸发). The higher the temperature, the more water corn needs, and the greater amount of water that evaporates. Just one acre of corn can release 3,000 to 4,000 gallons of moisture in a day, according to the U. S. Geological Survey. An oak (橡树) tree, by comparison, can transpire about 40,000 gallons of moisture in a year, an average of about 109 gallons per day. “Any place you have corn fields and it’s hot, you get corn sweat,” says meteorologist Dale Mohler. “In a state like Iowa, where approximately 24 million acres of land are devoted to growing corn and soybeans, it can bump the humidity on a hot day by up to 30 or 40 percent.” With climate warming comes a constant feedback circle: Warmer weather in the Midwest is also leading to more precipitation, meaning that there is more water in the soil for corn to absorb and transpire, which adds more water vapor to the air and further fuels warming. The increased humidity from corn sweat not only makes heat waves even more uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. “When the air is dry, you sweat and the evaporation cools you off,” says Mohler. “But that doesn’t work as well in humid conditions, because there is so much moisture in the atmosphere already. That’s why you feel that much more miserable when it’s humid as well as hot.” 28. What is the direct effect of “corn sweat”? A. Easing the heat wave. B. Increasing air humidity. C. Reducing corn production. D. Impacting human activities. 29. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the oak tree? A. To describe oak’s low evaporating speed. B. To compare the growth of corn and oak. C. To introduce how much water corn needs. D. To highlight corn’s high moisture release. 30. What does the underlined word “precipitation” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Heat. B. Consumption. C. Energy. D. Rainfall. 31. Why does humidity make people uncomfortable? A. It adds moisture to the soil. B. It causes people to sweat more. C. It is bad for sweating. D. It raises body temperature. D Until recently, when scientists studied cells from people and animals, they often had to examine large samples, producing an average of results from many kinds of cells. The process was like trying to learn about bananas by studying a smoothie — a drink made from different types of fruit. In recent years, scientists have developed methods that let them directly study the activity of cells and the genetic structure of individual cells. Single-cell analysis is the term for a group of techniques that scientists have developed for isolating or separating cells from living organisms. Scientists can study genetic material in each cell and learn about the relationships between cells. The result, notes the journal Science, is that researchers can follow the development of people and other organisms in incredible detail. Francis Collins, who is the former director of the National Institutes of Health, recently noted the importance of such techniques for understanding human beings. “Single-cell analysis is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of our biology and health,” he said. Jonathan Weissman is a stem cell biologist at the University of California San Francisco. He notes that single-cell analysis lets scientists ask much more detailed, exacting questions than they could in the past. “It’s like a flight recorder, where you are watching what went wrong and not just looking at a snapshot at the end,” he said. “We can ask questions at a resolution that was just not possible before.” Nicholas Navin is a professor from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. He uses single-cell DNA studies to discover patterns of mutations in cells of a cancerous tumor. These studies let Navin recreate when and where those mutations appeared as the tumor developed. That information helps him identify cells that contain combinations of mutations that make them the deadliest. “In the future, such research could be used to help identify what treatments to use for certain patients,” Navin said. The research might also help doctors follow how well their treatments are working against a cancer over time. 32. What was the shortcoming of the previous way to study cells? A. Generating a set of identical results. B. Failing to research individual cells accurately. C. Requiring scientists to study bananas directly. D. Focusing on separating cells from living organisms... 33. What can we learn about single-cell analysis from paragraph 2? A. It allows learning about creatures’ relationships. B. It is a simple method for researching people’s cells. C. It helps scientists know creatures more thoroughly. D. It mainly focuses on studying mixed cell samples. 34. What do the accounts in the last three paragraphs imply? A. Doctors will find a treatment for cancers soon. B. Many scientists began to focus on studying cells. C. There are many challenges of the new techniques. D. The new techniques have great application potential. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. The Previous Research into Human Cells B. A Major Breakthrough in Cancer Research C. Single-Cell Analysis: A Biological Revolution D. Genetic Material: A Global Research Project 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。 Every winter, after the first snowfall, skiers and snowboarders head to ski slopes (滑雪场). Gliding down trails looks effortless, but learning takes time. David Handy, the director of a ski school, shares efficient learning tips. Take lessons from an instructor Largely self-taught, Handy spent years snowboarding. Each fall brought a new painful lesson. “The first time I was ever on a mountain, I remember for hours I was just beating myself up on the snow,” he recalls. But the day he took his first lesson as an adult 15 years later, it immediately made him a better rider. ____36____. Get your equipment ____37____. After all, all the gear required could easily total over $1,000 and that’s a big investment to make in something you’re not certain you’ll love or even want to do again. Instead, Handy suggests renting the gear you need, which nearly every ski resort offers. Some larger resorts even have outerwear you can rent during your visit. Be prepared to fall “You’re practically guaranteed to fall when you’re a beginner, but there are definitely good and bad ways to fall,” Handy says. The biggest mistake people make, he points out, is that they try to catch themselves by putting their hands out to break their fall. ____38____. “Instead, tuck your arms and fall on larger, sturdier body parts,” Handy advises. ____39____ Sometimes learning how to ski and snowboard can be not only physically painful, but mentally exhausting. Falling, watching 6-year-olds cruise effortlessly past, and a lack of speedy progression can all get you down if you let them. ____40____. Give it at least three days of lessons and practice and don’t beat yourself up if you’re not where you think you should be. A. Don’t rush the process B. Overcome your inner pain C. That’s what leads to broken wrists D. These courses often need a great deal of energy. E. So Handy advises you to go in with a good attitude F. The lessons have the potential to cut a lot of time and pain G Handy does not recommend buying everything immediately 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。 Liam’s hands shook as he laid the crumpled (变皱的) paper on the dining table.

Liam’s dad knelt beside him and said, “Wow! Did you draw the tie? That’s just like mine.” Liam nodded and said, “Mom didn’t even look at it.” Later, as his dad helped him ____52____, his dad said softly, “Sometimes, people get so preoccupied with the mess that they overlook the most ____53____ part.” Liam stared at the ____54____ certificate, now displayed on the fridge. Maybe next time, he thought, she would ____55____ it. And indeed, she saw it the following day. 41.

But Lisa replied gently, “It’s only a few hours on Saturday morning. We’re meeting at the bus stop near Maple Street at 9:15. You won’t regret it.” After a pause, I finally agreed, though inside, I still hoped to find a quiet corner later to review my notes. On Saturday morning, I met Lisa and a small group of neighbors at the bus stop. We boarded the local bus and found spots near the middle. As the bus moved slowly through familiar streets, Lisa chatted warmly with Mrs. Green, who lived two doors down from us, while I sat quietly, gazing out the window. After several stops, the bus turned onto a quieter road. About twenty minutes later, we reached a calm neighborhood and stepped off near a cheerful white building with a well-kept garden. It felt peaceful and inviting. A friendly staff member named Maria welcomed us at the door. Inside, sunlight filled the room, soft music played, and the air carried a faint, comforting scent of flowers. I felt a little awkward at first and stayed close to the entrance. Some seniors were sitting together. Then I noticed an elderly gentleman in a blue sweater, sitting alone near a bookshelf with a newspaper in his hands. Lisa gently nudged me. “Go say hello,” she whispered with an encouraging smile. I walked over slowly. “Hello,” I said softly. “I’m Kate, from the neighborhood.” He looked up. “I’m Mr. Anderson,” he replied warmly. “Please, have a seat.” To my surprise, we fell into an easy conversation. He told me about his years working on the railways, his travels across the country, and growing up in a small Vermont town. His voice was calm and his memories were vivid — filled with train whistles, mountain views, and old friends. I soon forgot all about the notes in my pocket. 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。 After listening to him, I wanted to do something in return. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the bus home, I chatted with Lisa about what had happened. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 英语试题 注意事项： 1. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 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。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?

It’s about 599 kilometers from New York City (NYC) by road, and you can travel there by bus. Why should you choose to take the bus? The cheapest way to travel to Montreal from NYC is by bus. The bus company operates daily service, with one-way fares sometimes as low as $65. The bus departs from Port Authority and arrives at the Montreal long-distance bus station in eight and a half to nine and a half hours. When is the best time? Unless you like the idea of cold temperatures, then summer is the best time to visit Montreal. The peak tourist season runs from June through August, so your best bet for smaller crowds is probably May or September when hotels have more vacancies and the weather is mild enough to be outside. What can you do? Montreal is a great entry point to broader Canada travels, but there is a lot to do right in the city, such as visiting the ornate Notre-Dame Basilica, or exploring the Montreal Botanical Garden. Similarly, the Montreal Biodome, located at Olympic Park, replicates four American ecosystems, all indoors. When it’s nice outside, you can get a good viewing platform from the top of Mount Royal. What must be kept in mind? Upon reaching the Canadian border, all bus passengers will need to get off the bus and pick up their belongings and luggage, which will be inspected by Canadian officials. Unclaimed bags will be removed. You’ll be asked what the reason is for your trip. Once the process is finished, you’ll return your bags to the bus and continue your journey. Make sure you have reviewed the immigration and customs information to ensure you carry the proper documents. 21. What is the advantage of taking the bus to Montreal from NYC? A. Saving money. B. Great service. C. A beautiful view. D. Exciting experience. 22. Which place is the best one to get a full view of Montreal? A. Montreal Biodome. B. Mount Royal. C. Notre-Dame Basilica. D. Montreal Botanical Garden. 23. Why do the passengers get off the bus as soon as they reach Canada? A. For a headcount. B. For luggage inspection. C. For changing travel buses. D. For getting unclaimed bags. 【答案】21. A 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了从纽约乘坐巴士前往蒙特利尔的好处、蒙特利尔的最佳旅行时间、蒙特利尔的游玩景点和入境加拿大时的注意事项。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The cheapest way to travel to Montreal from NYC is by bus.(从纽约到蒙特利尔最经济的出行方式是乘坐巴士)”可知，从纽约去蒙特利尔选择巴士出行的优势是省钱。故选A。 22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When it’s nice outside, you can get a good viewing platform from the top of Mount Royal.(当天气晴朗时，你可以从皇家山的山顶找到一个绝佳的观景位置)”可知，皇家山山顶是观赏蒙特利尔全景的最佳地点。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Upon reaching the Canadian border, all bus passengers will need to get off the bus and pick up their belongings and luggage, which will be inspected by Canadian officials.(当抵达加拿大边境时，所有乘坐巴士的乘客都需要下车，取出自己的物品和行李，并接受加拿大官员的检查)”可知，乘客入境加拿大时要下车并领取行李，因为这些行李将要接受加拿大官员的检查。故选B。 B Christine Rowsey spent three tough years working full-time as a financial risk analyst to support her 5-year-old son Bryson, while taking evening courses at a community college to pursue her nursing dream. “I didn’t have any money or possessions left; all I had was a fragile dream,” she recalled with emotion. That dream took root three years earlier when she suffered the tragic loss of her husband, who had been diagnosed with cancer. Her husband fought for his life in the intensive care unit for seven months, undergoing more than a dozen operations. However, in the end, he left Christine forever. It was the sincere and constant support from the hospital’s nursing staff during that painful experience that inspired her to quit her original job and determinedly pursue a nursing career to help others the way she had been helped. Just as she was about to start formal nursing courses, her misfortunes brought her progress to a halt — her car was repossessed (收回). She couldn’t travel to class. Luckily, she discovered Volunteers of America (VOA) Michigan’s “Cars Helping People” program in Pontiac, which provided donated vehicles at fair prices for people in need, and she worked out a reasonable payment plan. She then enrolled in Oakland University’s one-year licensed practical nursing program, but she struggled with heavy tuition fees and the double pressure of studying hard as a top student and taking good care of Bryson. Another program run by VOA, the Health Profession Opportunity Grants, came to her rescue. It not only covered her full tuition but also offered an allowance for Bryson’s daily needs like food and gas, and even paid for her certification test fees. With the guidance from VOA’s employment specialist Rene DeLoach, who supported her through coursework, license application and job hunting, Christine finally achieved her goal. Now working as a licensed practical nurse at Riverview Health in Detroit, she is already pursuing her Registered Nurse certificate and sharing her inspiring story with young people. “VOA helped me rewrite my life exactly the way I wanted,” she said gratefully. 24. Why did Christine decide to work as a nurse? A. To care for her son. B. To inspire patients. C. To repay the kindness. D. To earn stable income. 25. What did VOA mean to Christine? A. A life changer. B. A famous charity. C. A training institution. D. A belief in her heart. 26. Which of the following can best describe Christine? A. Determined. B. Brilliant. C. Creative. D. Confident. 27. What does Christine’s story show? A. He who laughs last laughs longest. B. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. C. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. D. When the going gets tough, the tough get going. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. A 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Christine Rowsey在丈夫去世后，决定成为一名护士来回报社会，在面对重重困难时，得到了美国志愿者协会(VOA)相关项目的帮助，最终实现了自己的目标。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It was the sincere and constant support from the hospital’s nursing staff during that painful experience that inspired her to quit her original job and determinedly pursue a nursing career to help others the way she had been helped.(正是在那段痛苦的经历中，医院护理人员真诚而持续的支持，激励她辞去了原来的工作，坚定地追求护理事业，以她曾经被帮助的方式去帮助别人)”可知，Christine决定成为一名护士是为了报答曾经得到的善意和帮助。故选C项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Christine的话“VOA helped me rewrite my life exactly the way I wanted(VOA帮助我按照我想要的方式改写了我的人生)”以及前文提到的VOA对Christine在车辆、学费、生活费等方面的帮助可知，VOA对Christine来说意味着人生的改变者。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。文章在第一段中讲述Christine白天全职工作，晚上上课，坚持了三年；在第二段中讲述她丈夫去世后独自抚养儿子，并决心转行成为护士；在第三、四段中讲述在汽车被收回、面临重重经济压力时，她积极寻找资源，并最终在VOA帮助下克服困难，最终成功获得护士执照并找到工作(第五段)。整个故事展现了她在逆境中坚持不懈、意志坚定的品质。故选A项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，结合最后一段中Christine的话“VOA helped me rewrite my life exactly the way I wanted(VOA帮助我按照我想要的方式改写了我的人生)”可知，文章讲述了Christine在面对失去丈夫、车辆被收回、学费高昂等重重困难时，没有放弃，而是努力追求自己的梦想，最终改写了人生，实现了目标。Christine的故事正好印证了谚语“When the going gets tough, the tough get going. (艰难之路，唯勇者行)”所表达的在困难面前，强者会迎难而上、更加努力奋斗的精神。故选D项。 C As the U. S. Midwest was experiencing another heat wave, temperatures and humidity (湿热) in the region were being further fueled by “sweating” corn. If you didn’t have sweaty produce on your 2025 bingo card, you’re not alone; but “corn sweat” is a real phenomenon that adds moisture (水分) to the atmosphere and makes hot conditions even hotter and more unpleasant. It’s just one unexpected way in which human activities, from agriculture to deforestation and pollution, can have surprising effects on regional weather patterns, sometimes enhancing the impacts of climate change. Corn, like other plants, uses a process called evapotranspiration to draw water from the soil, take what it needs to function, and release the rest into the atmosphere via evaporation (蒸发). The higher the temperature, the more water corn needs, and the greater amount of water that evaporates. Just one acre of corn can release 3,000 to 4,000 gallons of moisture in a day, according to the U. S. Geological Survey. An oak (橡树) tree, by comparison, can transpire about 40,000 gallons of moisture in a year, an average of about 109 gallons per day. “Any place you have corn fields and it’s hot, you get corn sweat,” says meteorologist Dale Mohler. “In a state like Iowa, where approximately 24 million acres of land are devoted to growing corn and soybeans, it can bump the humidity on a hot day by up to 30 or 40 percent.” With climate warming comes a constant feedback circle: Warmer weather in the Midwest is also leading to more precipitation, meaning that there is more water in the soil for corn to absorb and transpire, which adds more water vapor to the air and further fuels warming. The increased humidity from corn sweat not only makes heat waves even more uncomfortable, but it can also be dangerous. “When the air is dry, you sweat and the evaporation cools you off,” says Mohler. “But that doesn’t work as well in humid conditions, because there is so much moisture in the atmosphere already. That’s why you feel that much more miserable when it’s humid as well as hot.” 28. What is the direct effect of “corn sweat”? A. Easing the heat wave. B. Increasing air humidity. C. Reducing corn production. D. Impacting human activities. 29. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning the oak tree? A. To describe oak’s low evaporating speed. B. To compare the growth of corn and oak. C. To introduce how much water corn needs. D. To highlight corn’s high moisture release. 30. What does the underlined word “precipitation” in paragraph 6 mean? A. Heat. B. Consumption. C. Energy. D. Rainfall. 31. Why does humidity make people uncomfortable? A. It adds moisture to the soil. B. It causes people to sweat more. C. It is bad for sweating. D. It raises body temperature. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过介绍“玉米汗”这一具体现象，阐释了人类农业活动如何通过影响局部气候，进而与全球气候变化形成复杂互动的科学原理。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“but “corn sweat” is a real phenomenon that adds moisture (水分) to the atmosphere and makes hot conditions even hotter and more unpleasant.(但“玉米出汗”是真实存在的现象，它向大气中添加水分，使得炎热天气变得更加酷热难耐。)”可知，“玉米出汗”是一种真实的现象，它会使空气变得更湿热。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Just one acre of corn can release 3,000 to 4,000 gallons of moisture in a day, according to the U. S. Geological Survey. An oak (橡树) tree, by comparison, can transpire about 40,000 gallons of moisture in a year, an average of about 109 gallons per day.(根据美国地质调查局的数据，仅一英亩玉米每天就能释放3000至4000加仑的水分。相比之下，一棵橡树每年蒸腾约4万加仑水分，日均约109加仑。)”可知，作者在提到一英亩玉米每日释放大量水分后，又引入橡树的数据进行对比，旨在通过具体的数据突显玉米在单位时间内释放水分的速率极高。故选D。 【30题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章划线词后文的内容“meaning that there is more water in the soil for corn to absorb and transpire, which adds more water vapor to the air and further fuels warming.(意味着土壤中有更多水分供玉米吸收和蒸腾，从而向空气中添加更多水汽，进一步加剧升温。)”可推知，划线词后文提到土壤中有更多的水分供玉米吸收和蒸腾，故此处划线词与D项“Rainfall(降雨)”意思相近，即中西部更暖的天气导致更多降水，意味着土壤中有更多水分供玉米吸收和蒸腾。故选D。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““When the air is dry, you sweat and the evaporation cools you off,” says Mohler. “But that doesn’t work as well in humid conditions, because there is so much moisture in the atmosphere already. That’s why you feel that much more miserable when it’s humid as well as hot.”(Mohler解释道：“空气干燥时，人体通过出汗和汗液蒸发实现降温。但在潮湿条件下，由于大气中已含有大量水分，这种降温机制会失效。这就是为什么在湿热天气里人们会感到格外难受。”)”可知，在干燥空气中，汗液蒸发能帮你降温；但在湿热的条件下，由于空气中已充满水分，汗液无法有效被排出，从而令人更加不适。故选C。 D Until recently, when scientists studied cells from people and animals, they often had to examine large samples, producing an average of results from many kinds of cells. The process was like trying to learn about bananas by studying a smoothie — a drink made from different types of fruit. In recent years, scientists have developed methods that let them directly study the activity of cells and the genetic structure of individual cells. Single-cell analysis is the term for a group of techniques that scientists have developed for isolating or separating cells from living organisms. Scientists can study genetic material in each cell and learn about the relationships between cells. The result, notes the journal Science, is that researchers can follow the development of people and other organisms in incredible detail. Francis Collins who is the former director of the National Institutes of Health, recently noted the importance of such techniques for understanding human beings. “Single-cell analysis is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of our biology and health,” he said. Jonathan Weissman is a stem cell biologist at the University of California San Francisco. He notes that single-cell analysis lets scientists ask much more detailed, exacting questions than they could in the past. “It’s like a flight recorder, where you are watching what went wrong and not just looking at a snapshot at the end,” he said. “We can ask questions at a resolution that was just not possible before.” Nicholas Navin is a professor from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. He uses single-cell DNA studies to discover patterns of mutations in cells of a cancerous tumor. These studies let Navin recreate when and where those mutations appeared as the tumor developed. That information helps him identify cells that contain combinations of mutations that make them the deadliest. “In the future, such research could be used to help identify what treatments to use for certain patients,” Navin said. The research might also help doctors follow how well their treatments are working against a cancer over time. 32. What was the shortcoming of the previous way to study cells? A. Generating a set of identical results. B. Failing to research individual cells accurately. C. Requiring scientists to study bananas directly. D. Focusing on separating cells from living organisms... 33. What can we learn about single-cell analysis from paragraph 2? A. It allows learning about creatures’ relationships. B. It is a simple method for researching people’s cells. C. It helps scientists know creatures more thoroughly. D. It mainly focuses on studying mixed cell samples. 34. What do the accounts in the last three paragraphs imply? A. Doctors will find a treatment for cancers soon. B. Many scientists began to focus on studying cells. C. There are many challenges of the new techniques. D. The new techniques have great application potential. 35. Which can be the best title for the text? A. The Previous Research into Human Cells B. A Major Breakthrough in Cancer Research C. Single-Cell Analysis: A Biological Revolution D. Genetic Material: A Global Research Project 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了单细胞分析技术的优势、意义与广阔前景。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Until recently, when scientists studied cells from people and animals, they often had to examine large samples, producing an average of results from many kinds of cells. The process was like trying to learn about bananas by studying a smoothie—a drink made from different types of fruit.(直到最近，科学家在研究人和动物的细胞时，通常还不得不检测大量样本，从多种细胞类型中得出一个平均化结果。这个过程就像试图通过研究一杯混合果汁（由多种水果制成）来了解香蕉。)”可知，过去的研究方法需要检测包含多种细胞类型的大样本，得出的结果是各类细胞的平均值，这就像通过研究混合水果奶昔来了解香蕉一样，无法精确研究单个细胞的具体情况。因此，旧方法的缺点是无法准确研究单个细胞。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Scientists can study genetic material in each cell and learn about the relationships between cells. The result, notes the journal Science, is that researchers can follow the development of people and other organisms in incredible detail.(科学家可以研究每个细胞中的遗传物质，并了解细胞之间的关系。《科学》杂志指出，其成果是研究者能够以前所未有的细节追踪人类及其他生物体的发育过程。)”可知，单细胞分析使科学家能够直接研究单个细胞的活动和遗传结构，从而追踪生物体的发育过程。这意味着科学家能更彻底地了解生物体。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Francis Collins, who is the former director of the National Institutes of Health, recently noted the importance of such techniques for understanding human beings. “Single-cell analysis is crucial for a comprehensive understanding of our biology and health,” he said.(美国国立卫生研究院前院长Francis Collins最近强调了此类技术对理解人类的重要性。他表示：“单细胞分析对于我们全面理解自身生物学和健康至关重要。”)”、文章第四段“Jonathan Weissman is a stem cell biologist at the University of California San Francisco. He notes that single-cell analysis lets scientists ask much more detailed, exacting questions than they could in the past.(加州大学旧金山分校的干细胞生物学家Jonathan Weissman指出，单细胞分析让科学家能够提出比过去更详细、更精确的问题。)”和文章第五段“Nicholas Navin is a professor from the MD Anderson Cancer Center. He uses single-cell DNA studies to discover patterns of mutations in cells of a cancerous tumor. These studies let Navin recreate when and where those mutations appeared as the tumor developed. That information helps him identify cells that contain combinations of mutations that make them the deadliest.(MD安德森癌症中心的Nicholas Navin教授利用单细胞DNA研究来发现癌变肿瘤细胞的突变模式。这些研究让纳文能够重构肿瘤发展过程中这些突变出现的时间和位置。这些信息帮助他识别出含有多种突变组合、最具致命性的细胞。)”可知，最后三段通过科学家的观点和具体应用案例，说明了单细胞分析技术在生物学、健康以及癌症研究等方面的关键作用和广阔应用前景。故选D。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“In recent years, scientists have developed methods that let them directly study the activity of cells and the genetic structure of individual cells. Single-cell analysis is the term for a group of techniques that scientists have developed for isolating or separating cells from living organisms.(近年来，科学家已开发出能直接研究单个细胞活动及其基因结构的方法。单细胞分析是科学家开发出的一系列技术的总称，用于从活体生物中分离细胞。)”以及全文内容可知，全文围绕单细胞分析技术的优势、意义及其在生物学和医学领域的革命性影响展开，强调其突破性与革命性意义。故C项“Single-Cell Analysis: A Biological Revolution(单细胞分析：一场生物革命)”能概括文章内容，符合文章标题。故选C。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Every winter, after the first snowfall, skiers and snowboarders head to ski slopes (滑雪场). Gliding down trails looks effortless, but learning takes time. David Handy, the director of a ski school, shares efficient learning tips. Take lessons from an instructor Largely self-taught, Handy spent years snowboarding. Each fall brought a new painful lesson. “The first time I was ever on a mountain, I remember for hours I was just beating myself up on the snow,” he recalls. But the day he took his first lesson as an adult 15 years later, it immediately made him a better rider. ____36____. Get your equipment ____37____. After all, all the gear required could easily total over $1,000 and that’s a big investment to make in something you’re not certain you’ll love or even want to do again. Instead, Handy suggests renting the gear you need, which nearly every ski resort offers. Some larger resorts even have outerwear you can rent during your visit. Be prepared to fall “You’re practically guaranteed to fall when you’re a beginner, but there are definitely good and bad ways to fall,” Handy says. The biggest mistake people make, he points out, is that they try to catch themselves by putting their hands out to break their fall. ____38____. “Instead, tuck your arms and fall on larger, sturdier body parts,” Handy advises. ____39____ Sometimes learning how to ski and snowboard can be not only physically painful, but mentally exhausting. Falling, watching 6-year-olds cruise effortlessly past, and a lack of speedy progression can all get you down if you let them. ____40____. Give it at least three days of lessons and practice and don’t beat yourself up if you’re not where you think you should be. A. Don’t rush the process B. Overcome your inner pain C. That’s what leads to broken wrists D. These courses often need a great deal of energy. E. So Handy advises you to go in with a good attitude F. The lessons have the potential to cut a lot of time and pain G. Handy does not recommend buying everything immediately 【答案】36. F 37. G 38. C 39. A 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过滑雪学校校长大卫·汉迪的分享，为滑雪初学者提供了高效学习的实用建议：接受专业指导、合理租赁装备、正确应对摔倒以及保持耐心和良好心态。 【36题详解】 上文“But the day he took his first lesson as an adult 15 years later, it immediately made him a better rider. (但是，15年后他作为成年人上了第一堂课的那天，这堂课立刻让他成为了一名更好的滑雪者)”讲述了汉迪在多年自学后，首次接受专业指导就立竿见影地提升了水平。F选项“The lessons have the potential to cut a lot of time and pain (这些课程有可能节省大量时间和痛苦)”顺承上文，总结了接受专业指导的巨大好处——不仅“immediately made him a better rider (立刻提升水平)”意味着节省了时间，而且与他早年“beating myself up on the snow (在雪地里自我折磨)”的痛苦自学经历相比，也避免了大量痛苦。该选项是对本小标题“Take lessons from an instructor”下内容的完美总结。故选F项。 【37题详解】 小标题“Get your equipment (获取你的装备)”点明了本段的主题。下文“After all, all the gear required could easily total over $1,000 and that’s a big investment to make in something you’re not certain you’ll love or even want to do again. (毕竟，所有必需的装备加起来很容易超过1000美元，对于一件你不确定自己是否会喜欢甚至还想再做一次的事情来说，这是一笔巨大的投资)”详细解释了不建议立即购买装备的原因(成本高、兴趣不确定)。G选项“Handy does not recommend buying everything immediately (汉迪不建议立即购买所有东西)”位于段首，作为总起句，直接给出了本段的核心建议，与下文的解释构成了“观点-原因”的逻辑关系。故选G项。 【38题详解】 上文“The biggest mistake people make, he points out, is that they try to catch themselves by putting their hands out to break their fall. (他指出，人们犯的最大错误是试图伸出手来阻止自己摔倒)”描述了初学者摔倒时最常见的错误姿势(用手撑地)。C选项“That’s what leads to broken wrists (这正是导致手腕骨折的原因)”承接上文，指出了这种错误姿势带来的严重后果。“That”指代的就是上文描述的“putting their hands out to break their fall”这一行为。上下文形成了“错误行为-严重后果”的因果关系，从而自然引出下文关于正确摔倒姿势的建议。故选C项。 【39题详解】 下文“Sometimes learning how to ski and snowboard can be not only physically painful, but mentally exhausting. (有时学习滑雪和单板滑雪不仅身体上痛苦，精神上也令人疲惫)”和“Give it at least three days of lessons and practice and don’t beat yourself up if you’re not where you think you should be. (至少给它三天的时间上课和练习，如果你没有达到你自认为应该达到的水平，也不要苛责自己)”描述了学习过程中的身心挑战，并建议给予足够时间、保持耐心、不要急于求成或自我否定。A选项“Don’t rush the process (不要急于求成)”准确地概括了下文的核心建议，点明了应对这些挑战的正确心态：要有耐心，循序渐进。该句可以作为本段的小标题。故选A项。 【40题详解】 上文“Falling, watching 6-year-olds cruise effortlessly past, and a lack of speedy progression can all get you down if you let them. (摔倒、看着6岁的孩子轻松滑过，以及进步缓慢，如果你放任不管，所有这些都会让你情绪低落)”列举了学习过程中可能打击信心的情况。E选项“So Handy advises you to go in with a good attitude (所以汉迪建议你以良好的心态开始)”顺承上文，针对上述挑战提出了根本性的应对策略——保持积极良好的心态。“So”表明这是基于上文问题而给出的建议。下文“Give it at least three days of lessons and practice and don’t beat yourself up if you’re not where you think you should be.(至少要进行三天的课程学习和练习，如果目前的进展不如预期，也不要对自己太过苛责)”则是在“良好心态”指导下的具体行为表现。E选项是连接“问题”与“具体行动”之间的关键。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。 Liam’s hands shook as he laid the crumpled (变皱的) paper on the dining table.

Now I’ll have to...”的责备内容，她说话时情绪激动，所以“声音”提高了。故选A项。 【49题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：她声音提高了说：“我今天早上才打扫过！现在我又得把这些胶擦掉了。”A. present礼物；B. tool工具；C. glue胶；D. food食物。根据前文“used lots of glitter (闪光) glue”可知，闪光胶弄脏了桌子，所以需要清理的是“胶”。故选C项。 【50题详解】 考查介词短语辨析。句意：“不管情况如何，你应该知道不能把这里弄得这么乱，”他妈妈坚定地说。A. Apart from除了；B. Regardless of不管，不顾；C. Instead of代替；D. On account of由于。根据语境，妈妈认为即使是为了给爸爸准备生日礼物(“the circumstances”指代此事)，也不应该弄乱房间，因此是“不管”具体情况如何。故选B项。 【51题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：“不管情况如何，你应该知道不能把这里弄得这么乱，”他妈妈坚定地说。A. gently温柔地；B. firmly坚定地；C. casually随意地；D. hesitantly犹豫地。根据前文“with her voice rising”以及责备的语气，她说话的态度是“坚定的”。故选B项。 【52题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：后来，当爸爸帮他收拾时，爸爸轻声说：“有时，人们过于专注于眼前的纷乱，反而忽略了其中最为珍贵的部分。”A. settle in安顿下来；B. carry on继续；C. step back后退；D. tidy up整理，收拾。根据前文描述的混乱场面(桌子被胶水弄脏、纸屑满地)，以及妈妈要求清理，爸爸在事后帮助他“收拾”或“整理”是合理的。故选D项。 【53题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：后来，当爸爸帮他收拾时，爸爸轻声说：“有时，人们过于专注于眼前的纷乱，反而忽略了其中最为珍贵的部分。”A. familiar熟悉的；B. precious珍贵的；C. controversial有争议的；D. influential有影响力的。根据前文“Did you draw the tie? That’s just like mine.”可知，爸爸关注的是儿子的心意，认为这比弄脏桌子更重要，因此是更“珍贵的”部分。故选B项。 【54题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：利亚姆盯着那张特殊的证书，现在它被展示在冰箱上。A. special特殊的；B. outstanding杰出的；C. elegant优雅的；D. formal正式的。这张证书是利亚姆为爸爸生日精心制作的，并且被爸爸珍视地展示在冰箱上，对父子二人来说具有“特殊的”意义。故选A项。 【55题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：也许下次，他想，她会注意到它。A. represent代表；B. define定义；C. preserve保存；D. perceive察觉，注意到。根据前文“Mom didn’t even look at it”和后文“she saw it the following day”可知，利亚姆希望妈妈能最终“看到”或“注意到”冰箱上的证书。故选D项。 第二节 (共10小题;每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 An Ethiopian expert noted that China, ____56____ has achieved significant progress in economic resilience, green development, openness and social welfare over the past five years, has strengthened its role as a stable, innovative and responsible force in global development. “Amid global crises such as conflicts, climate change and trade tensions, China has remained steadfast in realizing its targets set in its 14th Five-Year Plan (2021-2025) ____57____ growth, innovation, urbanization and major projects,” said Balew Dernissie, a senior consultant at the Policy Studies Institute of Ethiopia.

But Lisa replied gently, “It’s only a few hours on Saturday morning. We’re meeting at the bus stop near Maple Street at 9:15. You won’t regret it.” After a pause, I finally agreed, though inside, I still hoped to find a quiet corner later to review my notes. On Saturday morning, I met Lisa and a small group of neighbors at the bus stop. We boarded the local bus and found spots near the middle. As the bus moved slowly through familiar streets, Lisa chatted warmly with Mrs. Green, who lived two doors down from us, while I sat quietly, gazing out the window. After several stops, the bus turned onto a quieter road. About twenty minutes later, we reached a calm neighborhood and stepped off near a cheerful white building with a well-kept garden. It felt peaceful and inviting. A friendly staff member named Maria welcomed us at the door. Inside, sunlight filled the room, soft music played, and the air carried a faint, comforting scent of flowers. I felt a little awkward at first and stayed close to the entrance. Some seniors were sitting together. Then I noticed an elderly gentleman in a blue sweater, sitting alone near a bookshelf with a newspaper in his hands. Lisa gently nudged me. “Go say hello,” she whispered with an encouraging smile. I walked over slowly. “Hello,” I said softly. “I’m Kate, from the neighborhood.” He looked up. “I’m Mr. Anderson,” he replied warmly. “Please, have a seat.” To my surprise, we fell into an easy conversation. He told me about his years working on the railways, his travels across the country, and growing up in a small Vermont town. His voice was calm and his memories were vivid — filled with train whistles, mountain views, and old friends. I soon forgot all about the notes in my pocket. 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。 After listening to him, I wanted to do something in return. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the bus home, I chatted with Lisa about what had happened. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： After listening to him, I wanted to do something in return. I decided to sing a song for him. “Would you like me to sing a song?” I asked shyly. He nodded kindly. I sang “You Are My Sunshine”. My voice was a little shaky at first, but when he began singing along softly, I felt encouraged. Later, he taught me how to play chess, smiling warmly when I made a silly move. A few other residents gathered around. Some clapped lightly, and others shared memories of their own. What was once a quiet corner soon felt alive with gentle laughter and shared stories. On the bus home, I chatted with Lisa about what had happened. “So,” Lisa said with a smile, “what did you think?” I smiled back and said, “It was wonderful. I went there, thinking I was giving up study time, but I actually gained so much more.” I shared with her how Mr. Anderson’s stories moved me, and how the simple music brought everyone together. “It’s strange,” I said softly, “I thought I was there to help them, but they helped me, too.” I realized then that happiness isn’t just something you find on your own; it’s something you create by being truly present with others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者原本打算利用周末时间复习历史考试，但在邻居Lisa的劝说下，同意一起前往夕阳谷养老院做志愿者。在养老院，作者与一位名叫Mr. Anderson的老人交谈，听他讲述自己的故事，并逐渐放松下来，享受与老人们的互动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“听完他的话，我想做点什么作为回报。”可知，第一段可描写作者为老人唱歌，老人教作者下棋，养老院里充满了欢声笑语。 ②由第二段首句内容“在回家的公交车上，我和Lisa聊起了发生的事情。”可知，第二段可描写作者与Lisa分享自己的感受，意识到幸福不是独自寻找的，而是通过与他人真诚相处共同创造的。 2.续写线索：作者想回报老人——作者为老人唱歌，老人教作者下棋——养老院里充满欢声笑语——作者与Lisa分享感受——作者意识到幸福的真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①聚集：gather around/come together/assemble nearby ②轻拍手：clap lightly/tap one’s hands/applaud softly ③放弃：give up/abandon/let go of 情绪类 ①羞怯地：shyly/timidly ②亲切地：kindly/amiably 【点睛】【高分句型1】My voice was a little shaky at first, but when he began singing along softly, I felt encouraged.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】What was once a quiet corner soon felt alive with gentle laughter and shared stories.（运用了what引导的主语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力部分该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。现在是听力试音时间。Hello, international friends club, can I help you?
