B A Yale-led study warns that global climate change may have a destructive effect on many butterfly populations worldwide, turning their species-rich mountain habitats from shelters into traps. Think of it as the “butterfly effect” — the idea that something as tiny as a butterfly moving its wings can eventually cause a big event like a hurricane — the opposite way around. The new study, published in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution, also suggests that a lack of comprehensive global data about insects may leave conservationists and policymakers ill-prepared to mitigate biodiversity loss from climate change for a wide range of insect species. For the study, a team co-led by Yale ecologist Walter Jetz analyzed phylogenetic (系统发育的) and geographic range data for more than 12,000 butterfly species worldwide. They found that butterfly diversity is highly grouped in tropical and subtropical mountain systems: two-thirds of butterfly species live mainly in the mountains, which contain 3. 5 times more butterfly hotspots than lowlands. Yet those mountain ecosystems and surrounding areas are quickly changing as a result of climate change. According to the study, 64% of the specific temperature conditions for butterflies in tropical areas will disappear by 2070, as the unique temperature ranges in mountain regions continue to decrease. Current priorities in biodiversity preservation, the researchers note, are aimed at animals and plants, rather than insects. Until now, a global assessment of the geographic coincidence (分布特征) of diversity, rarity, and climate change threats for an insect system did not exist. The new assessment shows that patterns in butterfly diversity differ strongly from those of much better studied groups such as birds and mammals — challenging the relevance of existing conservation priorities, the researchers said. “The diversity, elegance, and beauty of butterflies excite people all over the world,” said Jetz, a professor. “Butterflies live with plants and help maintain the balance of nature,” he added. “Unfortunately, our first global assessment of butterfly diversity and threats finds that butterflies fascinating adaptation to higher-elevation (较高海拔的) environments might now lead to their extinction, with potentially thousands of species committed to extinction from global warming this century.” 24. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Increase. B. Reduce. C. Prevent. D. Ignore. 25. Why do mountain systems become a threat to butterflies? A. They are experiencing rapid climate shifts. B. They provide inadequate food sources. C. Their temperatures become unstable. D. Their developing patterns change. 26. Why does the study challenge existing conservation frameworks? A. Policy timelines mismatch extinction rates. B. Insect data is contradictory to climate predictions. C. Traditional models ignore elevational adaptations. D. Shared areas with bird or mammal habitats decreases. 27. Which of the following statements would Jetz agree with? A. Butterflies’ adaptability helps their living. B. Ecosystem dependence enlarges climate threats. C. Public liking effectively stops butterfly extinction. D. High-elevation habitats make sure future species safety. C I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. Worse , the rude proposal that social media is to blame might distract (分心) us from effectively responding to the real causes of the current mental-health crisis in young people. Researchers have searched for the effects suggested by Haidt. Our efforts have produced a mix of no, small and mixed associations. Most data are correlative. When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers. We are not alone here. Several analyses and systematic reviews centralize on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. Moreover, studies from some authorities finds no evidence of intense changes associated with digital-technology use. As a psychologist studying children’s and adolescents’ mental health, I appreciate parents’ frustration (沮丧) and desire for simple answers. As a parent of adolescents, I would also like to identify a simple source for the pain this generation is reporting. There are, however, no simple answers. The beginning and development of mental disorders are driven by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors. More young people are talking openly about their mental-health struggles than ever before. But insufficient services are available to address their needs. In the United States, there is, on average, one school psychologist for every 1,119 students. We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more. 28. What is presented in The Anxious Generation? A. Scary stories affect children’s brains. B. Parents are responsible for children’s health. C. Teen’s mental illness results from screen time. D. The epidemic of mental illness is unavoidable. 29. What does “the same message ” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Many countries do research in mental health. B. Well-being and social media are closely related. C. The young are trapped in the mental-health crisis, D. Social media don’t necessarily cause mental illness. 30. What is implied in the last paragraph? A. Effective actions need to be taken. B. Positive stories should be shared. C. Financial support needs to be provided. D. Broader research should be done. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To suggest ways to help those in need. B. To encourage parents to brave the crisis. C. To recommend a newly-published book. D. To give a voice to children’s mental issues. D Raised on the farm, Padma Suresh had a love for agriculture just like her father. Young Padma would spend most of her evening after school in the fields, learning the art of organic farming. After moving to the city, she began missing the farm. Faced with the limited space, Padma felt the absence of fresh vegetables. Besides, she was disappointed with the taste and quality of shop-bought vegetables. Because chemicals used on vegetables were harmful to human health, she finally decided to take matters into her own hands and change her yard into a vegetable garden. Now 48, Padma has devoted the past 12 years to developing a garden with 200 plants of 20 varieties of vegetables. She relies on natural fertilizers (肥料). Additionally, she uses creative organic farming methods like preparing liquid fertilizers from fish. Her husband Suresh Ettan, who is now working in an oil and gas company, said, “As I don’t eat meat, I have limited food choices in the city. Now every morning, my wife sends me a good breakfast. Apart from that, she also shares the photos of her day’s harvest. I take pride in showing those photos to my colleagues.” For Padma, the garden has become a source of joy and also a link to her rural roots. Padma says she finds connection to her village through the traditional recipes and taste of homegrown vegetables. More importantly, by growing her own food, the gardener has not only found a way to provide a supply of organic vegetables to her family but also a way to earn some money. Earning money was what she didn’t expect. Padma says she has a small shop where she sells extra vegetables. Within an hour, all her vegetables are sold out. This organic farming business earns her up to Rs 1,000. 32. When did Padma develop her love for organic farming? A. After she moved to the city. B. When she helped on the farm. C. After she graduated from school. D. When she lacked fresh vegetables. 33. Which words can best describe Padma? A. Warm-hearted and confident. B. Generous and gifted. C. Creative and hard-working. D. Responsible and organized. 34. How does Suresh Ettan feel about his wife’s farm? A. The farm makes his life busy. B. The farm offers him rich food. C. The farm costs lots of his money. D. The farm prevents him eating meat. 35. What unexpected benefit has been brought to Padma? A. Some additional income. B. Good neighbour relationship. C. Fresh vegetables for her family. D. A connection with her hometown. 第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5分） Although many people still like to have three main meals a day, others are choosing a lighter way of eating rather than rich meals. ____36____.

He had a group of friends, participated in some school activities, and was an average student academically. However, deep inside, he was in a constant state of confusion and self-doubt. Jack had always been pushed by his parents to follow a certain path. They wanted him to study engineering in college believing it would lead to a stable and prosperous future. But Jack had a hidden passion for art. He loved to draw and paint, spending countless hours in his room, creating beautiful landscapes and portraits on his canvases. One day, a well-known art competition was announced in the city. The theme was “The True Self”. Jack was immediately drawn to it. This was a chance for him to express himself through his art, to show the world who he really was. But he was extremely hesitant. He knew that if his parents found out he was participating in an art competition, they would be furious. Jack’s best friend, Tom, noticed his inner conflict. “Jack, you have to go for it. This is your chance to discover who you truly are. Don’t let your parents’ expectations hold you back,” Tom encouraged him. With Tom’s words echoing in his mind, Jack decided to secretly enter the competition. He worked day and night on his painting. It was a self-portrait that showed the different sides of his personality — the obedient (顺从的) son on the surface, but beneath that, a passionate artist longing to break free. As the submission (提交) deadline approached, Jack was both excited and terrified. Finally, the day of the submission arrived. Jack carefully wrapped his painting and took it to the competition venue. As he placed his work on the table, he felt a sense of liberation, as if a part of him had finally been set free. A few weeks later, Jack received an email from the competition organizers. His heart skipped a beat as he opened it. The email informed him that his painting had made it to the final round! He was overjoyed, but at the same time, the fear of his parents’ reaction grew stronger. 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。 Jack’s excitement disappeared when he realized that the final round required him to show his work in person at a public event. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the event, Jack stood in front of the large crowd, holding his painting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2024-2025学年下学期期末考试 高二英语试卷 本试卷满分150分,考试用时120分钟。 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) 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What course will the woman take?

M: New York is the birthplace of the modern art movement in the US. W: The only thing I was missing was sculpture. The watercolor paintings were my favorite. M: I was also disappointed about the lack of sculpture, but in general I liked it a lot. Hey, how long do you think it takes to become an accomplished artist? W: It’s tough to say. My uncle is a painter and it took him 20 years to get to the point where he could do his art full time. M: I have always enjoyed oil painting, but the materials are so expensive. I had to give it up. W: That’s too bad. I guess we all have to make sacrifices. M: Maybe I just need a cheaper alternative. My niece has been doing a lot of chalk art on her blackboard, and she even likes to show it to her best friend. W: We should stop by the art supply store on the way home. M: Okay, as long as the cost of a cab is not too high. I am on a tight budget this month. W: This one’s on me. You got the taxi last weekend. M: Awesome. Let’s go to the reception counter. They can help us find the taxi stand. 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节, 满分 50 分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题 2.5分, 满分 37.5分） 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的 A 、B 、C 和 D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Are you fighting for your dreams?

It depends on personal talent. C. It is about understanding secrets. D. It means extraordinary achievements. 22. Which author grew up in poverty? A. Malcolm Gladwell. B. Jeannette Walls. C. M. Scott Peck. D. James Clear. 23. What is the common theme of the four books? A. Entertainment. B. Historical facts. C. Self-development. D. Scientific research. 【答案】21. A 22. B 23. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了帮助个人提升，实现自我发展的四本书：Malcolm Gladwell的《Outliers》，Jeannette Walls的《The Glass Castle》，M. Scott Peck的《The Road Less Traveled》，以及James Clear的《Atomic Habits》。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Outliers部分内容“Through fascinating case studies, Gladwell argues that success is not only the result of individual talent but also a combination of opportunity, timing, and hard work.(通过引人入胜的案例研究，Gladwell认为成功不仅是个人天赋的结果，也是机会、时机和努力的结合。)”可知，在书中，成功被描述为个人天赋，机会，时机以及努力多种因素的综合体。故选A项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章The Glass Castle部分内容“Jeannette Walls’ inspiring memoir, The Glass Castle, describes her poor childhood in an unstable environment, highlighting the strength needed to overcome adversity.(Jeannette Walls的鼓舞人心的回忆录《The Glass Castle》描述了她在不稳定环境中的贫穷童年，强调了克服逆境所需的力量。)”可知，《The Glass Castle》的作者Jeannette Wall的童年经历了贫穷，不稳定。故选B项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。通过阅读文章内容，根据书籍描述中关键词句可知，“Outliers”中“understand the secrets behind extraordinary achievements(了解非凡成就背后的秘密)”可知，该书探讨成功因素，强调个人成就；“The Glass Castle”中“highlighting the strength needed to overcome adversity(强调克服逆境所需的力量)”可知，该书关注克服逆境和个人韧性；“The Road Less Traveled”中“a powerful guide to personal growth and spiritual development(个人成长和精神发展的有力指南)”可知，该书聚焦个人成长和精神发展；“Atomic Habits”中内容“a practical guide to building good habits and breaking bad ones (养成好习惯和改掉坏习惯的实用指南)”可知，该书提供自我改进的实用策略。由此推知，所有书都涉及个人提升、自我发展和克服挑战，即，它们的共同主题是自我发展（self-development）。故选C项。 B A Yale-led study warns that global climate change may have a destructive effect on many butterfly populations worldwide, turning their species-rich mountain habitats from shelters into traps. Think of it as the “butterfly effect” — the idea that something as tiny as a butterfly moving its wings can eventually cause a big event like a hurricane — the opposite way around. The new study, published in the journal Nature Ecology and Evolution, also suggests that a lack of comprehensive global data about insects may leave conservationists and policymakers ill-prepared to mitigate biodiversity loss from climate change for a wide range of insect species. For the study, a team co-led by Yale ecologist Walter Jetz analyzed phylogenetic (系统发育的) and geographic range data for more than 12,000 butterfly species worldwide. They found that butterfly diversity is highly grouped in tropical and subtropical mountain systems: two-thirds of butterfly species live mainly in the mountains, which contain 3. 5 times more butterfly hotspots than lowlands. Yet those mountain ecosystems and surrounding areas are quickly changing as a result of climate change. According to the study, 64% of the specific temperature conditions for butterflies in tropical areas will disappear by 2070, as the unique temperature ranges in mountain regions continue to decrease. Current priorities in biodiversity preservation, the researchers note, are aimed at animals and plants, rather than insects. Until now, a global assessment of the geographic coincidence (分布特征) of diversity, rarity, and climate change threats for an insect system did not exist. The new assessment shows that patterns in butterfly diversity differ strongly from those of much better studied groups such as birds and mammals — challenging the relevance of existing conservation priorities, the researchers said. “The diversity, elegance, and beauty of butterflies excite people all over the world,” said Jetz, a professor. “Butterflies live with plants and help maintain the balance of nature,” he added. “Unfortunately, our first global assessment of butterfly diversity and threats finds that butterflies fascinating adaptation to higher-elevation (较高海拔的) environments might now lead to their extinction, with potentially thousands of species committed to extinction from global warming this century.” 24. What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Increase. B. Reduce. C. Prevent. D. Ignore. 25. Why do mountain systems become a threat to butterflies? A. They are experiencing rapid climate shifts. B. They provide inadequate food sources. C. Their temperatures become unstable. D. Their developing patterns change. 26. Why does the study challenge existing conservation frameworks? A. Policy timelines mismatch extinction rates. B. Insect data is contradictory to climate predictions. C. Traditional models ignore elevational adaptations. D. Shared areas with bird or mammal habitats decreases. 27. Which of the following statements would Jetz agree with? A. Butterflies’ adaptability helps their living. B. Ecosystem dependence enlarges climate threats. C. Public liking effectively stops butterfly extinction. D. High-elevation habitats make sure future species safety. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了耶鲁大学一项研究警告称，全球气候变化可能对全球许多蝴蝶种群造成破坏性影响，其物种丰富的山区栖息地正从庇护所变为陷阱。研究还指出，现有保护框架因忽视蝴蝶的海拔适应性而面临挑战。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“The new study, published in the journal  Nature Ecology and Evolution , also suggests that a lack of comprehensive global data about insects may leave conservationists and policymakers ill-prepared to mitigate biodiversity loss from climate change for a wide range of insect species.(这项发表在《自然・生态与进化》杂志上的新研究还指出，由于缺乏关于昆虫的全面全球数据，保护主义者和政策制定者可能无法做好准备，以mitigate气候变化给广泛昆虫物种带来的生物多样性损失)”可知，由于缺乏昆虫的全面全球数据，导致保护者和政策制定者无法采取有效措施来减少气候变化带来的损失。由此可知，mitigate应意为“减少”，与reduce意思接近。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Yet those mountain ecosystems—and surrounding areas—are quickly changing as a result of climate change. According to the study, 64% of the specific temperature conditions for butterflies in tropical areas will disappear by 2070, as the unique temperature ranges in mountain regions continue to decrease.(然而，由于气候变化，这些山区生态系统及其周边地区正在迅速发生变化。该研究指出，随着山区独特温度范围的持续缩小，到2070年，热带地区64%的蝴蝶生存所需的特定温度条件将消失)”可知，山地系统因快速的气候变化导致其独特的温度范围不断缩小，从而威胁到蝴蝶的生存环境。故选A。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The new assessment shows that patterns in butterfly diversity differ strongly from those of much better studied groups such as birds and mammals—challenging the relevance of existing conservation priorities.(这项新评估表明，蝴蝶的多样性分布模式与研究更为充分的鸟类和哺乳动物等群体存在显著差异——这对现有保护优先级的合理性提出了挑战)”及最后一段“butterflies’ fascinating adaptation to higher-elevation environments might now lead to their extinction.(蝴蝶对高海拔环境令人称奇的适应性，如今却可能导致它们走向灭绝)”可知，现有保护框架主要针对鸟类和哺乳动物，忽视了蝴蝶对高海拔环境的适应性，因此受到挑战。故选C。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Butterflies’ fascinating adaptation to higher-elevation environments might now lead to their extinction.(蝴蝶对高海拔环境令人称奇的适应性，如今可能正使其走向灭绝)”可知，蝴蝶对山区生态系统的适应性反而因气候变化加剧了灭绝风险，即“生态系统依赖放大了气候威胁”。故选B。 C I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. Worse , the rude proposal that social media is to blame might distract (分心) us from effectively responding to the real causes of the current mental-health crisis in young people. Researchers have searched for the effects suggested by Haidt. Our efforts have produced a mix of no, small and mixed associations. Most data are correlative. When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers. We are not alone here. Several analyses and systematic reviews centralize on the same message. An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. Moreover, studies from some authorities finds no evidence of intense changes associated with digital-technology use. As a psychologist studying children’s and adolescents’ mental health, I appreciate parents’ frustration (沮丧) and desire for simple answers. As a parent of adolescents, I would also like to identify a simple source for the pain this generation is reporting. There are, however, no simple answers. The beginning and development of mental disorders are driven by a complex set of genetic and environmental factors. More young people are talking openly about their mental-health struggles than ever before. But insufficient services are available to address their needs. In the United States, there is, on average, one school psychologist for every 1,119 students. We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more. 28. What is presented in The Anxious Generation? A. Scary stories affect children’s brains. B. Parents are responsible for children’s health. C. Teen’s mental illness results from screen time. D. The epidemic of mental illness is unavoidable. 29. What does “the same message ” underlined in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Many countries do research in mental health. B. Well-being and social media are closely related. C. The young are trapped in the mental-health crisis, D. Social media don’t necessarily cause mental illness. 30. What is implied in the last paragraph? A. Effective actions need to be taken. B. Positive stories should be shared. C. Financial support needs to be provided. D. Broader research should be done. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To suggest ways to help those in need. B. To encourage parents to brave the crisis. C. To recommend a newly-published book. D. To give a voice to children’s mental issues. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。本文是对《焦虑的一代》一书的评论，作者认为该书提出的数字技术导致儿童大脑重构和精神健康危机的观点缺乏科学依据。作者强调，精神障碍的成因复杂，需要基于科学和证据的解决方案，而不是简单归咎于社交媒体。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science. (然而，这本书一再暗示数字技术正在重构我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神健康问题的流行，这一观点并没有得到科学的支持。)”可知，该书重复暗示数字技术正在重构我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神健康问题的流行。C选项“Teen’s mental illness results from screen time.(青少年的精神疾病与看屏幕时间有关。)”与该描述相一致。故选C。 【29题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线词前面的内容“When associations over time are found, they suggest not that social-media use predicts or causes depression, but that young people who already have mental-health problems use such platforms more often or in different ways from their healthy peers.( 随着时间的推移，他们发现社交媒体的使用并不是预测或导致抑郁症，而是已经有心理健康问题的年轻人比健康的同龄人更频繁地或以不同的方式使用这些平台。)”以及划线词后面的内容“An analysis done in 72 countries shows no consistent or measurable associations between well-being and social media globally. (在72个国家进行的一项分析显示，在全球范围内，幸福感和社交媒体之间没有一致的或可衡量的联系。)”可知，“同样的信息”指的是社交媒体并不一定导致心理健康问题。通过在72个国家进行的一项分析显示，在全球范围内，幸福感和社交媒体之间没有一致的或可衡量的联系。故划线词指代的是没有一致或可测量的证据表明社交媒体与幸福感之间有密切关系。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We have a generation in crisis and in desperate need of the best of what science and evidence-based solutions can offer. Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more.(我们这一代人正处于危机之中，迫切需要科学和基于证据的解决方案所能提供的最好的东西。不幸的是，我们的时间花在讲述没有研究支持的故事上，这些故事对那些需要、也应该得到更多支持的年轻人几乎没有帮助。)”可知，针对于年轻人的心理健康问题，我们正在浪费时间讲述没有研究支持的故事，而这些故事对需要帮助的年轻人并没有帮助，这暗示我们需要采取有效的行动来解决这个问题。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“I had to say something after reading The Anxious Generation. It is going to sell well , because Jonathan Haidt is telling a scary story about children’s development many parents are led to believe. However, the book’s repeated suggestion that digital technologies are rewiring our children’s brains and causing the epidemic (流行病) of mental illness is unsupported by science.(读完《焦虑的一代》后，我不得不说些什么。这本书将会畅销，因为乔纳森·海特特讲述了一个许多父母都倾向于相信的关于儿童发展可怕的故事。然而，书中反复暗示数字技术正在重新连接我们孩子的大脑，并导致精神疾病的流行，这一观点并没有科学支持。)”以及最后一段中“Unfortunately, our time is being spent telling stories that are unsupported by research and that do little to support young people who need, and deserve, more.(不幸的是，我们的时间花在讲述没有研究支持的故事上，这些故事对那些需要、也应该得到更多支持的年轻人几乎没有帮助。)”以及通读全文可知，整篇文章都在批评一本书的观点，并强调需要科学和证据支持的解决方案，而不应该把时间浪费在没有科学研究支持的结论中，由此表明作者的目的是引起人们对儿童心理健康问题以及真正引发其该问题的原因进行关注和理解。D选项“To give a voice to children’s mental issues.(为孩子们的心理问题发声。)”符合作者的目的。故选D。 D Raised on the farm, Padma Suresh had a love for agriculture just like her father. Young Padma would spend most of her evening after school in the fields, learning the art of organic farming. After moving to the city, she began missing the farm. Faced with the limited space, Padma felt the absence of fresh vegetables. Besides, she was disappointed with the taste and quality of shop-bought vegetables. Because chemicals used on vegetables were harmful to human health, she finally decided to take matters into her own hands and change her yard into a vegetable garden. Now 48, Padma has devoted the past 12 years to developing a garden with 200 plants of 20 varieties of vegetables. She relies on natural fertilizers (肥料). Additionally, she uses creative organic farming methods like preparing liquid fertilizers from fish. Her husband Suresh Ettan, who is now working in an oil and gas company, said, “As I don’t eat meat, I have limited food choices in the city. Now every morning, my wife sends me a good breakfast. Apart from that, she also shares the photos of her day’s harvest. I take pride in showing those photos to my colleagues.” For Padma, the garden has become a source of joy and also a link to her rural roots. Padma says she finds connection to her village through the traditional recipes and taste of homegrown vegetables. More importantly, by growing her own food, the gardener has not only found a way to provide a supply of organic vegetables to her family but also a way to earn some money. Earning money was what she didn’t expect. Padma says she has a small shop where she sells extra vegetables. Within an hour, all her vegetables are sold out. This organic farming business earns her up to Rs 1,000. 32. When did Padma develop her love for organic farming? A. After she moved to the city. B. When she helped on the farm. C. After she graduated from school. D. When she lacked fresh vegetables. 33. Which words can best describe Padma? A. Warm-hearted and confident. B. Generous and gifted. C. Creative and hard-working. D. Responsible and organized. 34. How does Suresh Ettan feel about his wife’s farm? A. The farm makes his life busy. B. The farm offers him rich food. C. The farm costs lots of his money. D. The farm prevents him eating meat. 35. What unexpected benefit has been brought to Padma? A. Some additional income. B. Good neighbour relationship. C. Fresh vegetables for her family. D. A connection with her hometown. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Padma Suresh从小热爱有机农业，搬到城市后对农场生活充满怀念，于是将自家院子改造成菜园，不仅为家人提供有机蔬菜，还意外获得了额外收入的故事。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Raised on the farm, Padma Suresh had a love for agriculture just like her father. Young Padma would spend most of her evening after school in the fields, learning the art of organic farming.(Padma Suresh在农场长大，和她父亲一样热爱农业。年轻的Padma会在放学后的大部分晚上在田野里度过，学习有机农业的艺术)”可知，Padma在农场帮忙时就培养了对有机农业的热爱。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段提到“Now 48, Padma has devoted the past 12 years to developing a garden with 200 plants of 20 varieties of vegetables. She relies on natural fertilizers. Additionally, she uses creative organic farming methods like preparing liquid fertilizers from fish.(现年48岁的Padma在过去的12年里一直致力于开发一个拥有200株20种蔬菜的花园。她依靠天然肥料。此外，她还使用创造性的有机耕作方法，如用鱼制作液体肥料)”可知，Padma不仅勤奋地经营着自己的菜园，还有创造力地运用各种有机耕作方法。由此可知，最能描述Padma的词语是有创造力的和勤奋的。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“As I don’t eat meat, I have limited food choices in the city. Now every morning, my wife sends me a good breakfast. Apart from that, she also shares the photos of her day’s harvest.(因为我不吃肉，所以我在城市里的食物选择很有限。现在每天早上，我妻子都会给我送一顿丰盛的早餐。除此之外，她还会分享她当天收获的照片)”可推知，Suresh Ettan认为他妻子的农场为他提供了丰富的食物。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“More importantly, by growing her own food, the gardener has not only found a way to provide a supply of organic vegetables to her family but also a way to earn some money. Earning money was what she didn’t expect.(更重要的是，通过自己种植食物，这位园丁不仅找到了一种为家人提供有机蔬菜的方法，而且还找到了一种赚钱的方法。赚钱是她没有预料到的)”可知，Padma获得的意想不到的好处是一些额外的收入。故选A。 第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5 分, 满分 12.5分） Although many people still like to have three main meals a day, others are choosing a lighter way of eating rather than rich meals. ____36____. The important thing is to make sure you choose healthy foods. ____37____ The demands of modern life mean that we don’t always have the opportunity to sit down and eat three meals a day.

(尽管许多人仍然喜欢一日三餐，但也有人选择了清淡的饮食方式，而不是丰盛的一餐。)” 及下文“The important thing is to make sure you choose healthy foods. (重要的是要确保你选择健康的食物。)” 可知，作者在划线处上文先提出两种不同的饮食方式，下文给出的建议是“确保你选择健康的食物”可知，划线处并未否定任何一种饮食方式，即两种方式都有可行实处，只要健康即可。选项B.“Either option is equally acceptable (两种选择都是可以接受的)”符合语境。故选B。 【37题详解】 根据第二段“For some people, the pressures of combining work and family leave little time for food preparation. Others regularly eat on their own and don’t want to bother cooking a full meal. (对一些人来说，兼顾工作和家庭的压力使他们几乎没有时间准备食物。还有一些人经常自己吃饭，不想做一顿丰盛的饭。)”可知，此处描述不同人群选择不通过的就餐模式，因此本段给出的建议为：根据自己的生活模式选择适合的饮食方式。选项C. “Eat in a way that suits your lifestyle (选择适合自己生活方式的饮食方式)”符合语境。故选C。 【38题详解】 根据下文“Boredom or stress can drive us to the fridge, or corner shop. (无聊或压力会把我们逼到冰箱或街角小店)”可知，我们会在感到无聊或压力时选择吃东西，即我们有时吃东西并非饥饿。选项D.“We don’t just eat because we’re hungry (我们不只是因为饿才吃东西)”符合语境。故选D。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Starchy carbohydrates（淀粉类碳水化合物）have a lot to offer nutritionally and make excellent choices as the basis both for snacks and for lunch. (淀粉类碳水化合物有很多营养价值，是零食和午餐的绝佳选择)”可知，此处主要介绍选择淀粉类碳水化合物的饮食建议。因此划线处会具体说明这类饮食的优点。选项G.“They are filling and help you stay filled with energy for a while (它们会让你感到充实，并帮助你在一段时间内保持精力充沛)”符合语境。故选G。 【40题详解】 根据下文“Lunch is an essential pause in the middle of the day, a chance to relax and recharge our batteries a little. (午餐是一天中必不可少的休息，是一个放松和充电的机会。)”可知，此处给出的饮食建议是一定要吃午餐。因此划线处提出“不管其他时间的饮食习惯或是安排是什么，午餐是必要的”，选项F.“No matter what our eating pattern is for the rest of the day (不管一天中剩下的时间我们的饮食习惯如何)”符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节, 满分 30 分） 第一节 （共 15小题；每小题 1分, 满分 15分） As a growing family, we gathered lots of stuff, especially toys.

He had a group of friends, participated in some school activities, and was an average student academically. However, deep inside, he was in a constant state of confusion and self-doubt. Jack had always been pushed by his parents to follow a certain path. They wanted him to study engineering in college, believing it would lead to a stable and prosperous future. But Jack had a hidden passion for art. He loved to draw and paint, spending countless hours in his room, creating beautiful landscapes and portraits on his canvases. One day, a well-known art competition was announced in the city. The theme was “The True Self”. Jack was immediately drawn to it. This was a chance for him to express himself through his art, to show the world who he really was. But he was extremely hesitant. He knew that if his parents found out he was participating in an art competition, they would be furious. Jack’s best friend, Tom, noticed his inner conflict. “Jack, you have to go for it. This is your chance to discover who you truly are. Don’t let your parents’ expectations hold you back,” Tom encouraged him. With Tom’s words echoing in his mind, Jack decided to secretly enter the competition. He worked day and night on his painting. It was a self-portrait that showed the different sides of his personality — the obedient (顺从的) son on the surface, but beneath that, a passionate artist longing to break free. As the submission (提交) deadline approached, Jack was both excited and terrified. Finally, the day of the submission arrived. Jack carefully wrapped his painting and took it to the competition venue. As he placed his work on the table, he felt a sense of liberation, as if a part of him had finally been set free. A few weeks later, Jack received an email from the competition organizers. His heart skipped a beat as he opened it. The email informed him that his painting had made it to the final round! He was overjoyed, but at the same time, the fear of his parents’ reaction grew stronger. 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。 Jack’s excitement disappeared when he realized that the final round required him to show his work in person at a public event. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the event, Jack stood in front of the large crowd, holding his painting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Jack’s excitement disappeared when he realized that the final round required him to show his work in person at a public event. The thought of his parents possibly discovering his secret filled him with dread. What if they attended the event and saw his painting? Would they understand, or would they be disappointed in him? For days, Jack struggled with this dilemma. Tom urged him not to give up, saying, “This is your moment to be honest with yourself and others.” After much internal conflict, Jack decided to face his fears. On the day of the event, Jack stood in front of the large crowd, holding his painting. His hands trembled as he unveiled the self-portrait. Murmurs of admiration rippled through the audience. Suddenly, he spotted his parents at the back of the room, their eyes fixed on his artwork. Jack’s heart pounded, but he continued to share the story behind the painting, speaking of his struggle to reconcile his parents’ expectations with his own dreams. When he finished, there was a moment of silence before the crowd broke into warm applause. His parents walked forward, and his mother said softly, “We had no idea how much this means to you.” His father nodded, adding, “Your courage to pursue your truth is what truly matters.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了17 岁的杰克在父母期望他学工程与自己热爱艺术的矛盾中困惑挣扎。在“真实自我”主题艺术比赛中，他受好友鼓励秘密参赛，以自画像晋级决赛。决赛需公开展示作品时，他虽担忧父母反应，仍选择直面恐惧坦白一切。决赛现场，杰克向众人讲述内心挣扎，意外发现父母在场。他勇敢分享后赢得掌声，父母被其勇气打动，理解了他对艺术的热爱。最终，杰克在父母的接纳中感受到理解，认识到艺术成为了沟通彼此的桥梁。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当杰克意识到最后一轮比赛需要他在公开场合亲自展示自己的作品时，他的兴奋消失了。”可知，第一段可描写杰克的心理变化以及汤姆对他的支持。 ②由第二段首句内容“在活动当天，杰克站在一大群人面前，手里拿着他的画。”可知，第二段可描写杰克分享这幅画背后的故事以及父母对他的支持。 2.续写线索：兴奋消失——心理变化过程——汤姆的鼓励——站在一大群人面前——分享这幅画背后的故事——父母对他的支持 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①发现：discover/ find ②决定做某事：decided to do /was determined to do ③追求：pursue /go after 情绪类 ①恐惧：dread / fear ②温柔地：softly / gently 【点睛】[高分句型1] Tom urged him not to give up, saying, “This is your moment to be honest with yourself and others.”（运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语。） [高分句型2] When he finished, there was a moment of silence before the crowd broke into warm applause.（运用了When引导的时间状语从句。） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。听下面对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3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，每段对话仅读一遍。So are you going to join my spanish course this year?
