The fire soon spread rapidly, and it took firefighters hours to bring it under control. Unfortunately, the Hong Kong Fire Services Department announced the next day that the disaster had caused 55 deaths, making it one of the most serious fires in Hong Kong in recent years. Initial investigations showed that the fire was caused by illegally piled construction waste and flammable bamboo scaffolding(脚手架) outside the whole building. What made the situation worse was the strong easterly wind of 7 meters per second. The bamboo scaffolding and nylon(尼龙) protective nets on the outer walls burned quickly, acting like upright chimneys(烟囱). Due to the “chimney effect”, the fire rushed from the 3rd floor to the top floor in just 15 minutes. High-rise building structures such as stairwells and elevator shafts(通风井) accelerated the spread of high-temperature harmful smoke, which spread at a speed of 3-5 meters per second and could cover a 30-storey building in 30 seconds. After the fire, the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region government took quick action. Chief Executive John Lee Ka-chiu ordered comprehensive fire safety inspections of all public housing estates across the region. The Independent Commission Against Corruption (贪污) looked into possible corruption in the building renovation contracts concerning the fire and made several arrests. Meanwhile, local communities began to carry out fire safety training, teaching residents fire escape skills such as “run quickly in small fires and close doors in big fires” Hong Kong has a large number of old buildings. Statistics show that there are as many as40,000 buildings over 30 years old and more than 10,000 buildings over 50 years old in HongKong. This fire has sounded an alarm for the whole society. It reminds us that strengthening the fire safety transformation of old buildings and improving people's awareness of fire risks are urgent tasks for urban safety. 24. What can we learn about the fire at Wang Fuk Court from the first paragraph? A. It broke out on the morning of November 26, 2025. B. It was brought under control within a few minutes. C.55 people were reported dead on November 27. D. It became the most serious fire in Hong Kong's history. 25. What primarily led to the rapid spread of the fire? A. Strong winds and the building's outside coverings. B. The improper design inside the tall building. C. Aged electrical equipment and accidental fire. D. Lack of firefighting devices and water supply. 26. What measure was taken after the Wang Fuk Court fire? A. A full fire safety inspection of all private residences. B. An investigation into related corruption cases. C. Fund-raising for those who got hurt in the fire. D. Replacement of the nylon protective nets. 27. What's the author's attitude towards the fire safety situation of old buildings in HongKong? A. Concerned. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. Optimistic. C Culture, by which scientists mean that animals learn from each other to overcome problems, seems to be increasingly common across the animal kingdom. Alice Bridges, a behavioral ecologist at Anglia Ruskin University in England, wondered whether insects like bumblebees might have a capacity for it, too. To study culture in bumblebees in the lab, she built a puzzle box out of Petri dishes(培养皿) with a reward of super sweet sugar water at the bottom of it. Bridges cut a small hole in the lid to create a spinning top that can be turned by pushing the red dot clockwise or the blue dot counter-clockwise. Then, she trained some bees to push the red dot to get the sugar water and others to push the blue dot. Next, Bridges put these trained bees into different colonies(群体) along with the puzzle boxes. It wasn't all fun and games, however, and the experiment ultimately played itself out. In colonies where the tutor bee had originally learned to push the red dot, the other bees in the colony usually pushed the red dot. In colonies where the tutor bee was trained to push the blue dot, their fellow bees tended to do the same. In the control colonies where there were no tutors, the bees sometimes learned how to open the boxes, but never as efficiently or reliably. The conclusion is that bumblebees can pass on certain behaviors. However, because bumblebee colonies collapse before winter, there's little chance a tradition could get passed down from generation to generation. So, Bridges is planning future work on insects whose colonies last for years, like stingless bees. That truth, summarizes Whiten, a cognitive zoologist at the University of St Andrews in Scotland, is that all we have discovered about animal culture means that human culture, once thought unique, did not emerge “out of the blue” but has obviously built on deep evolutionary foundations. 28. How was Alice Bridges' study conducted? A. By analyzing experimental data in detail. B. By observing the behaviors of tutor bees. C. By referring to the previous experiments. D. By comparing results in different groups. 29. What does the phrase “played itself out” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ended in failure. B. Caused confusion. C. Reached a conclusion. D. Became entertaining. 30. Why is Alice Bridges turning to insects like stingless bees for future work? A. Because they may pass down traditions across generations. B. Because they may have more complex cultural behaviors. C. Because it may be easier to observe these insects in the lab. D. Because insects of such types may learn more efficiently. 31. What is the best title for the passage? A. Bumblebees' Unique Learning Skills B. The Evolution of Human Culture C. Insect Training: Solving Puzzles in the Lab D. Animal Culture: Beyond Human Uniqueness D You had to be really unlucky to be on the China National Highway 110 on August 14,2025. One of the longest traffic jams on record, trapping thousands of vehicles over more than 100 kilometers and lasting more than 10 days. Would it make you impatient? I strongly suspect that even the calmest would answer with a resounding “yes”！ And yet philosophers and poets alike sell patience as a “virtue”(a good quality), implying that having it is always a good thing. To me, it's far more useful to think about patience as something we do rather than something we have. Consider first what it means to be impatient. We all know the feeling: fingers drumming the table, leg bouncing. But why does this frustrating feeling arise? Most emotion researchers take it as a functionalist perspective. Our mind and body are trying to tell us to get moving, to find a way to bring the unpleasant delay to an end. In a series of recent studies with more than 1,400 participants, we found that people were more impatient when the thing they were waiting for was very appealing—— and when the wait itself was unappealing. Being delayed for something you hate, such as an unpleasant work event, is easier than a similar delay for a long-awaited performance by your favorite band. If impatience is an emotion, what is patience? In technical terms, it's a form of emotion regulation(调节) like reminding ourselves that the scary movie isn't real. When we start to feel impatient, we can let that feeling rage— or we can regulate it. Are you waiting weeks to find out if you have got that job? Dive into your favorite hobby to distract(干扰) yourself for a few hours. There's still a lot we don't know about patience, including why some people seem to find it easier than others and how we can get better at it. Fortunately, those are simpler questions to answer when we reduce the challenge from virtue acquisition to emotion regulation. Ultimately, it may seem like a sharp contrast to poetic descriptions of virtue, but I' ll take practical wisdom over virtue any day. 32. Why does the author mention the traffic jam in paragraph 1? A. To reveal China's traffic problems. B. To introduce China's longest traffic jam. C. To question the absolute value of patience. D. To show emotional challenge in extreme situations. 33. Which of the following situations would make people the most impatient? A. Being stuck in a traffic jam in a comfortable car. B. Being delayed by bad weather on the way to work. C. Waiting for an important but unpleasant work meeting. D. Waiting in a long queue for an expected football game. 34. What does the author view patience as? A. An acquired virtue. B. A born personality. C. A way of releasing emotion. D. A behavior of managing emotion. 35. What is the purpose of the text? A. To argue for a virtue. B. To redefine patience. C. To introduce strategies. D. To identify impatience. 第二节(共5小题；每小题 2.5分，满分 12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Horace, the famous Roman poet who lived from 65 BC to 8 BC, once said, “The poet's aim is to combine the delightful and the useful.”A poet will take insights into our world covered in fog and cut through that fog to reveal the truth beneath in their poetry. 36 Poetry is rich in wisdom and knowledge, yet it is often remarkably brief in form. We' re living in a world where everything becomes so fast-paced that it's hard to focus on anything for long. 37 It allows us to start and finish something of value within life's small windows of time—— whether we' re waiting for the bus with our child, or seeking a meaningful thought to share at the dinner table. It can be presented to our audience, or used to start a deeper discussion. Similar to the way in which poetry reveals hidden, yet familiar truths, it can also reveal hidden yet familiar beauty. When a poet uses beautiful language to describe elements of beauty within our world, we may feel shocked. 38 Only then will we realize that we have never fully appreciated the things around us. We begin to learn the art of treasuring what we have. 39 By thoughtfully engaging with poetry, we step into the perspectives of others. In the process, we will sharpen our awareness, deepen our empathy(同理心), and actively expand our emotional intelligence. To pass down the power of poetry to the next generation, it's best to develop a love and appreciation for it in our children from an early age. 40 This practice offers an opportunity to create a bonding experience and lasting memories. A. A short poem is a gift for us. B. Poems can inspire us in a number of ways. C. In this way, poetry helps us understand the world better. D. Poetry fuels our curiosity and unlocks further exploration. E. It involves spending plenty of time reading poems together. F. Poetry gives voice to our shared human emotions and experiences. G. Suddenly we become aware of the beauty so close yet unseen before. 第三部分 语言运用(共三节，满分40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。 I had been skiing since childhood.

One afternoon, I took a chairlift with a retired ski 49 named Bob. When I told him I was struggling, he 50 to watch me take an easy slope and assessed what I was doing wrong.

Mr Roberts had divided the class into groups to do presentations. Today had been Niesha's turn. However, her hands had shaken so badly that she couldn't read her notes. Her voice had become softer to the point of silence. Mr Roberts had kindly ended Niesha's part of the presentation, even though she had clearly not finished. He had also asked Niesha to stay after class for a moment. “Niesha, I know you' re shy, but you worked hard on this project. I'd hate to see you give up on yourself.” Then Mr Roberts hesitated, before saying, “If I give you another chance until tomorrow, do you think you can find your courage?” Niesha nodded, grateful for the chance. She went as quickly as she could to her next class. She kept her head down and hoped the school day would end soon. When she reached her back steps that afternoon, she could see an inviting light coming from the kitchen windows. Momma was baking.

A。细节理解题。根据第一段“Music World offers a wide variety of rentals for instruments and sound system equipment. Our rates are among the lowest and we also include insurance. Instruments and equipment are all maintained in working order by excellent and experienced shop staff.(音乐世界提供各种各样的乐器和音响系统设备租赁服务。我们的收费处于最低之列，而且还包含保险。乐器和设备由优秀且经验丰富的店员维护。)”可知，Music World Rental s的优势是收费具有竞争力。故选A。 22. B。细节理解题。根据 About Instrument Rental s部分中的“We visit the local schools and provide instrument rental shows to help band programs get started！ Students have an opportunity to try out instruments. They can hear what each instrument sounds like and what role it plays in band and make an informed decision on what to play.(我们参观当地的学校，并提供乐器租赁展，以帮助乐队项目启动！学生们有机会试用乐器。他们可以听到每种乐器的声音以及它在乐队中扮演的角色，并做出明智的决定。)”可知，乐器租赁最能吸引要加入学校乐队的学生。故选B。 23. B。细节理解题。About Sound Rental s部分最后一句明确说明：租用音响设备必须持有“a DRIVER'S LICENSE and a CREDIT CARD”;因此B项正确。 【语篇导读】这是篇新闻报道，介绍了2025年11月26日香港新界大埔宏福苑发生的重大火灾事件。 24. C。细节理解题。根据第一段中的“On the afternoon of November 26, 2025, a fierce fire broke out in Wang FukCourt in Tai Po, New Territories, Hong Kong.(2025年11月26日下午，香港新界大埔宏福苑发生了猛烈火灾。)”以及“Unfortunately, the Hong Kong Firc Services Department announced the next day that the disaster had caused55 deaths, making it one of the most serious fires in Hong Kong in recent years.(不幸的是，香港消防处次日宣布，这场灾难造成55人死亡，是香港近年来最严重的火灾之一。)”可知，火灾发生在下午而非上午，消防员花费数小时才控制火势，且这场火灾只是近年最严重之一而非香港历史上最严重。选项C“根据11月27日的报告，火灾造成55人死亡”与原文一致。故选C。 25. A。细节理解题。A选项对应原文中“强东风”和“易燃的外墙竹脚手架与尼龙网”这两个关键的外部原因，为正确答案。B、C、D选项均为干扰项。文中提到了建筑内部结构(如楼梯井)加速了烟雾蔓延，但这不是火灾蔓延的原因；也未提及电路设备老旧或消防工具与供水不足是本次火灾的主要原因。 26. B。细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The Independent Commission Against Corruption(贪污) looked into possible corruption in the building renovation contracts concerning the fire and made several arrests.(香港廉政公署对与火灾相关的建筑翻新合同中可能存在的贪污行为展开调查，并拘捕了数人。)”可知，相关部门针对火灾涉及的腐败案件开展了调查。故选B。 27. A。推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Hong Kong has a large number of old buildings.(香港有大量老旧建筑。)”和“This fire has sounded an alarm for the whole society. It reminds us that strengthening the fire safety transformation of old buildings and improving people's awareness of fire risks are urgent tasks for urban safety.(这场火灾为全社会敲响了警钟。它提醒我们，加强老旧建筑消防安全改造、提升民众火灾风险意识是城市安全的紧迫任务。)”可知，作者对香港老旧建筑的消防安全状况充满担忧。故选A。 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。科学家们定义的动物之间互相学习以克服问题的这种文化，似乎在整个动物王国中越来越普遍。英国安格利亚鲁斯金大学的行为生态学家爱丽丝·布里奇斯通过研究表明，大黄蜂是可以传递某些行为的，这是一种文化形式。 28. D。推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Then, she trained some bees to push the red dot to get the sugar water and others to push the blue dot. Next, Bridges put these trained bees into different colonies(群体) along with the puzzle boxes.(然后，她训练一些大黄蜂推动红点来获取糖水，另一些大黄蜂则推动蓝点。接下来，布里奇斯将这些训练有素的大黄蜂与拼图盒一起放入不同的群体中。)”可推知，爱丽丝·布里奇斯的研究是通过比较不同组的结果来进行的。故选D。 29. C。词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“Then, she trained some bees to push the red dot to get the sugar water and others to push the blue dot. Next, Bridges put these trained bees into different colonies(群体) along with the puzzle boxes.”和第三段中的“In colonies where the tutor bee had originally learned to push the red dot, the other bees in the colony usually pushed the red dot. In colonies where the tutor bee was trained to push the blue dot,their fellow bees tended to do the same.(在辅导蜂最初学会推动红点的蜂群中,蜂群中的其他大黄蜂通常会推动红点。在辅导蜂被训练推动蓝点的蜂群中，它们的同伴蜂也倾向于做同样的事情。)”可知，艾丽丝·布里奇斯训练一些大黄蜂推动红点，一些大黄蜂推动蓝点，结果是被训练推红点的大黄蜂所在蜂群推动红点，被训练推蓝点的大黄蜂所在蜂群推动蓝点，这说明实验不仅仅是为了游戏和娱乐，实验最终是成功的，得出了一个结论，由此可推知，画线短语意为“得出结论”，故选 C。 30. A。细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The conclusion is that bumblebees can pass on certain behaviors. However, because bumblebee colonies collapse before winter, there's little chance a tradition could get passed down from generation to generation. So, Bridges is planning future work on insects whose colonies last for years, like stingless bees.(结论是大黄蜂可以传递某些行为。然而，由于大黄蜂群在冬季之前就崩溃了，因此一个传统几乎不可能代代相传下来。因此，布里奇斯正在计划未来对那些群落能持续多年的昆虫进行研究，比如无刺蜜蜂。)”可知，爱丽丝·布里奇斯在未来的工作中会转向无刺蜜蜂等昆虫，这是因为这些昆虫可能会将传统代代相传。故选A。 31. D。主旨大意题。本文主要讨论了动物(特别是大黄蜂)的“文化”现象。它指出动物可以通过互相学习来解决问题,这一发现表明人类文化并非凭空出现,而是有其进化基础。A. Bumblebees’ Unique Learning Skills;文章确实研究了大黄蜂，但这只是一个例子。它被用来说明动物界普遍存在的文化现象，并非文章主旨。B. The Evolution of Human Culture:文章仅在结尾提到人类文化的进化基础,并非全文讨论的重点。C. Insect Training: Solving Puzzles in the Lab:这只是实验的具体方法,过于片面,不能概括全文主旨。D. Animal Culture: Beyond Human Uniqueness：这个标题最全面地概括了文章主旨，它既点出了“动物文化”这一核心主题，又呼应了文章最后强调的观点————文化并非人类所独有。 32. C。推理判断题。作者以 2025 年8月 14 日110 国道的极端堵车事件为例,紧接着提出“Would it make you impatient?”并质疑“耐心为美德”的观点，核心目的是通过该案例对“耐心是一种美德”的普遍认知提出质疑。A项仅为事件表面信息，并非举例目的；B项只是对事件本身的描述，并非作者举例的意图；D项“情绪挑战”是宽泛表述，未贴合作者对“耐心价值”的核心质疑。 33. D。细节理解题。根据第三段中的“we found that people were more impatient when the thing they were waiting for was very appealing—— and when the wait itself was unappealing”可知,当等待的目标非常吸引人,且等待过程本身令人不悦时，人们会更不耐烦。D项“为了一场期待的足球比赛排长队”完全符合这两个条件：足球比赛是“吸引人的目标”，排长队是“令人不悦的等待过程”。 34. D。细节理解题。根据第四段的第二句“In technical terms, it's a form of emotion regulation...”可知,用专业术语来说,耐心是一种情绪调节的形式;根据本段最后一句“Dive into your favorite hobby to distract(干扰) yourself fora few hours.”可知，耐心是一种行为。因此，作者视耐心为一种调节情绪的行为。 35. B。写作意图题。通读全文可知，本文围绕“耐心”展开：以实例引出对传统“耐心即美德”观点的质疑(第一段)→分析急躁的成因(第二、三段)→提出对耐心的新定义，即它是一种“情绪调节行为”(第四段)→总结强调这一实用主义新视角优于传统美德观(第五、六段)。因此，文章的目的是提出并论证一个关于“耐心”的新定义。 36. C。该空承上启下。上文引用贺拉斯的名言并阐述诗人能“cut through that fog to reveal the truth”,选项 C中的“In this way”完美承接上文“揭示真理”这一功能,并总结指出其作用是“understand the world better”,对应上文中诗人能“take insights into our world”。故选 C。 37.A。该空需要对下文进行概括。下文具体描述了在等公交、晚餐分享等“life's small windows of time”里，诗歌可以开始并完成一件有价值的事。选项A“A short poem is a gift for us.”是对这一情景的精准比喻和概括，与之形成呼应，也对应此段的段首句中提到的诗歌精短的特点“it is often remarkably brief in form”。故选A。 38.G。该空与上文构成顺承关系。上文提到诗人用美言描绘世间美，我们可能会感到震撼。选项G以“Suddenly”开头，生动地描绘了震撼后的结果————“we become aware of the beauty so close yet unseen before”,这与下文的“we have never fully appreciated the things around us”形成自然的逻辑衔接。故选 G。 39.F。该空为段落主旨句。下文的核心是“通过诗歌，we step into the perspectives of others，提升同理心和情商”。选项F指出“Poetry gives voice to our shared human emotions and experiences.”，这句段首句也是段落的中心句，完美统领整个段落。故选 F。 40.E。该空需要提出具体建议。上文提到要从小培养孩子对诗歌的热爱，下文则说“这个实践”能创造 bonding experience(亲密体验)。选项 E提出的“spending plenty of time reading poems together”正是这样一个具体且可操作的“practice”，与上下文紧密衔接。故选 E。 【语篇导读】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了虽然作者一直滑中级水平的蓝色滑道，但有次尝试滑山上的蓝色滑道时，却产生了退却的心理，他意识到练习并不能让自己表现得更好，后来他遇到一位退休的教练，教练告诉他有时候人似乎在后退，但实际上在解锁一项新技能。 41.B。考查副词词义辨析。句意：我很少摔倒，我从来没有撞到任何东西，而且我大部分时间都坚持滑“蓝色”的滑道————中级滑雪者专用的路线。A. frequently经常；B. rarely很少；C. mostly大多数情况下；D. gradually逐渐地。根据下文“I'd never crashed into anything”可知，作者滑雪从来没有撞到任何东西，技术应该不错，因此是很少摔倒。故选 B。 42.C。考查动词词义辨析。句意同上。根据下文“a blue run, one I had done many times before”可知，作者以前滑过多次蓝色的滑道，因此是大部分时间都坚持滑这条滑道，stick to sth.是固定短语，意为“坚持……”。故选C。 43.A。考查动词词义辨析。句意：因此，在我上山的第一天，我决定应对一条蓝色的滑道，这是我以前滑过很多次的。A. handle处理，应对；B. declare声明；C. change改变；D. skip跳过。根据上文“I'd never crashed into anything”和下文“a blue run, one I had done many times before”可知，作者滑雪从来没有撞到任何东西，技术应该不错，而且以前滑过多次蓝色的滑道，因此应该是这一天决定应对这里的蓝色的滑道。故选A。 44.C。考查名词词义辨析。句意：然而，当我到达蓝色滑道的顶端时，一阵突如其来的不安感击中了我。A. amazement惊诧，惊奇；B. confidence自信；C. unease不安；D. familiarity熟悉。根据下文“Why was it so cold? Why did the trails look so much sharper?”可知，作者在疑问为什么这么冷，蓝色滑道是否一直都这么陡峭，是产生了恐惧的心理，动摇了滑蓝色滑道的想法，因此出现了不安感。故选C。 45.D。考查名词词义辨析。句意：缆车的节奏曾令人愉悦，此刻却开始让我感到不适。A. ambition雄心；B. curiosity好奇心；C. motivation激励；D. discomfort不适感。根据上文“Why was it so cold? Why did the trails look so much sharper?”可知，作者在疑问为什么这么冷，蓝色滑道是否一直都这么陡峭，是产生了恐惧的心理，因此缆车的节奏这个时候也会让他感觉不适。故选 D。 46.B。考查动词短语词义辨析。句意：结果证明，仅仅是“以前滑过很多次”并不意味着我在滑雪方面做得更好。A. came about产生，发生；B. turned out结果是，证明是；C. stood out显眼，突出；D. worked out解决。根据上文作者原本想应对这里的蓝色滑道，但是真正到了顶端的时候却产生了退却的心理可知，turned out“结果是，证明是”符合语境，从上文的经历得出下文的结论。故选B。 47.D。考查名词词义辨析。句意：有大量的证据表明，练习————甚至只是做————并不能让我们在这项活动中表现得更好。A. amusement娱乐；B. competition竞争；C. observation观察；D. practice练习。故选D。 48.A。考查形容词词义辨析。句意：进步的喜悦，有时会与退步的痛苦历程相伴而生。A. painful痛苦的；B. humble谦逊的；C. essential至关重要的；D. rewarding值得的。根据下文“of getting worse”可知，变得更坏会带来的是痛苦，和上文变得更好的喜悦相呼应。故选A。 49.D。考查名词词义辨析。句意：一天下午，我和一位名叫 Bob的退休滑雪教练一起乘坐缆车。A. official官员；B. director导演；C. constructor建造者；D. instructor教练。根据下文“assessed what I was doing wrong”可知， Bob能评估作者做错了什么，因此他应该是退休的滑雪教练。故选 D。 50.A。考查动词词义辨析。句意：当我告诉他我在挣扎时，他表示愿意看我选一个简单的滑雪坡道，并评估我做错了什么。A. offered愿意；B. learned学习；C. managed管理；D. preferred偏爱。根据下文“to watch me take an easy slope and assessed what I was doing wrong”可知，Bob看作者选一个简单的滑雪坡道，并评估作者做错了什么，offered“愿意”符合语境， offer to do sth.是固定短语，意为“愿意做某事”。故选 A。 51. B。考查动词词义辨析。句意： Bob 提醒我，学习的过程看起来很像倒退。A. announced 公布；B. reminded 提醒；C. guaranteed 保证；D. stimulated 刺激。根据下文“the learning process looks a lot like backsliding(倒退)”可知，学习的过程看起来很像倒退是一种告诫，因此 Bob 应该是在提醒作者这一点。故选 B。 52. C。考查动词词义辨析。句意：当婴儿刚开始学走路时，他们也是从不断的跌跌撞撞中进步的。A. pace 来回走；B. perform 表演；C. progress进步；D. ascend 上升。根据上文“the learning process looks a lot like backsliding(倒退)”可知， Bob 先说了学习的过程看起来很像倒退，结合上文“When babies first learn to walk”和常识可知选C。 53. A。考查动词词义辨析。句意：有时候我们似乎正在后退，但实际上我们正在解锁一项新技能。A. unlocking 解锁；B. demonstrating 展示；C. testing 测试；D. witnessing 见证。根据“but”可知，此处语义有转折，前面说似乎止在后退，此处表示但实际却不是这样，而是解锁一项新技能。故选 A。 54. B。考查形容词词义辨析。句意：一次笨拙的尝试往往是你正在学习的标志。A. anxious 焦虑的；B. awkward 尴尬的，笨拙的；C. aimless 漫无目的的；D. automatic 自动的。根据上文“the learning process looks a lot like backsliding(倒退)”可知，学习的过程看起来很像倒退，因此在尝试的时候会出现很多问题，会有一些笨拙。故选B。 55.

She imagined the scene where her momma tried her best to overcome her fears and pick up her courage to deliver a fantastic speech to the audience. Sensing Niesha's anxiety, Momma reassured her and reached out her hand to tie the blue ribbon onto Niesha's wrist with a smile. Restored and determined, Niesha gave herself a pat to pick up her courage. In front of the mirror, she continuously practiced pronunciation, tone, and even gestures. “Try harder,” she struggled against the awful desire for sleep that threatened her. The next day Niesha again walked to the front of the classroom to give her presentation. Shy and uneasy, she customarily lowered her head and avoided her classmates' gaze, frozen there for seconds. Shortly afterward, courage found its way back the moment she caught sight of the blue ribbon. Comforted and inspired, she took a deep breath and called up all her courage, “Dear fellow students,…” Niesha cast a glance at Mr Roberts standing in the corner smiling at her. A self- reassuring smile spread across Niesha's face. She knew for sure that she had found her courage, in the difficulties and the challenges. 【评分标准】 内容：16分 第一段：Niesha看到妈妈的蓝色带受到鼓舞(4分) Niesha 自己练习为第二天的 presentation做准备(4分) 第二段：Niesha presentation的过程(4分) presentation的结果(2分) Niesha的收获感悟(2分) 行文：7分 书写：2分 听力材料 Text 1 W: Are you going to be very busy on Saturday? M: Extremely, I have to go to the dentist first. Then, I will pick up my dry- cleaning at 11:30 a.m. After lunch, I have to go to the library to meet with my study group. Text 2 W: Thank you for coming to the airport for me. M: You' re welcome. Er…, some of us are meeting for dinner tonight. Would you like to join us? W: Thank you for the invitation, but I'm really tired. I' ll just have an early night. Text 3 M: Are you ready to stand up in your skates? W: Yes, I' ll have to take it a bit slow at first. I don't want to hold you back, so let's skate separateiy and meet up at the snack bar in the end. Text 4 W: Are you staying in the Paris branch all week? M: Yes, Cindy. I'm giving a training course to Sonya and her team in sales. W: Ah yes, I' ve noticed they' ve needed help in that area. So, is it going well? M: Yes, they' re making good progress. Text 5 W: Wasn't your school assignment due today? M: Yeah, and if Gina hadn't given me a hand, I'd never have finished it. Text 6 M: What do you think of Sue Grafton's books? W: I love those mysteries！ When I started to read A Is for Alibi, I couldn't put it down. I stayed up till 4:00 in the morning to finish it！ M: Wow！ Have you read any of the other books in the series? W: Oh, yeah. They' re fantastic. B Is for Burglar, C Is for Corpse,… I' ve just wrapped up K Is for Killer. That's the11th one. Using the alphabet to build a mystery series is such a clever idea. Sadly, the series had to end up with Y because of the writer's passing. But anyway, I can't wait to read the other 14 books！ Text 7 W: Oh, Scott, there you are！ At last！ I' ve been waiting for ages！ M: I'm really sorry. I'm late, Jessie. You see, it started to rain while I was walking to the bus stop, so I had to go back home to get my umbrella. W: Oh, no ！M: So then, of course, I missed the bus and had to wait for the next one. W: Mm, I see. But why didn't you call me? M: You' ll never believe this. I tried to phone you but my phone died-I'd forgotten to charge it！ And the traffic was so bad that it took ages to get here. W: Oh well, these things happen, I guess. You' re here now. Let's go in and have some coffee！ Text 8 M: Have you seen Matilda? W: Oh yeah. Countless times. I practically wore out the DVD as a kid. M: Me too. I used to watch it all the time when I was young. I' ve probably seen it 20 times. I still love that scene where the boy is forced to eat that massive chocolate cake. W: Oh yeah. You can almost feel his struggle. M: So, have you seen The Blue Planet? W: No. What is it? M: It's this nature documentary series that's being shown on Channel 1 at the moment. You have to check it out！ W: I usually find documentaries a bit slow and dry. M: Really? But this is absolutely amazing！ The filming is just unbelievable. They get so close to the animals. There was an underwater scene last night with blue whales. It felt as if you were right there, swimming alongside them. W: Right. Whatever. Not my kind of thing, I'm afraid. Text 9 W: I have a couple of questions about equipment. Will we need a lot of warm stuff? M: Well, mountain weather is unpredictable, so you need to prepare for the worst. W: What exactly do you mean by “the worst”? Is there a risk of snow? M: I don't think it will snow where we' re going. But to be honest, the worst sort of weather is downpour. So you need a good waterproof coat. W: Of course. M: But you don't need a thick coat. When you' re walking, you get very hot, you sweat a lot, and then as soon as you stop walking, you quickly get cold. W: So what sort of coat would you recommend taking? A light one? M: Yeah, a light one is better. And another thing to consider is the kind of T-shirt you wear. Not cotton ones because if cotton gets wet, it takes a long time to dry. Lightweight sports T-shirts are better. They dry fast—— plus, they' re a lot lighter to carry in your backpack. W: OK. Text 10 M: Good morning, boys and girls. I'm Steven, working as the administrator at College's guidance administration. Today I would like to talk with you about our team and the services you can be offered. There are now three professional advisors in our team. They are Louise Bagshaw, Tony Denby and Naomi Flynn.
