Fourteen-year-old William Kamkwamba watched his father, Trywell, stare at the dead cornfields — not with anger, but with the quiet agony of a man whose wisdom had been surpassed by a changing world. School was a memory now; the family’s savings had evaporated for maize (玉米) that didn’t last. Driven by a restlessness that hunger couldn’t dull, William began haunting (频频出入) the village’s small, abandoned library. The other boys laughed; books couldn’t fill a belly. There, in a frayed American textbook called Using Energy, he found a picture that ignited his mind: a tall tower with spinning blades (旋转的叶片), It could make electricity and pump water. Water. The word was a spell (魔咒), If a windmill could pump water, it could irrigate fields. It could defeat the drought. William’s laboratory was the family’s backyard; his materials, the discarded bones (丢弃的残骸) of a broken world: a worn generator, the rusty tractor fan, plastic pipe, wooden poles saved from a blue gum tree. His first attempts were ridiculous failures, the blades collapsing like wounded birds. The village whispers grew. “Masanfa,” they murmured — madness. Even his father, seeing precious time spent on “toys” while the family starved, ordered him to stop. William’s moment of truth came not in resistance, but in silent demonstration. One evening, as his father sat in defeated silence, William led him to the yard. He connected the dynamo (发电机) to a small bulb, then gave the fan a mighty spin. A flicker, then a steady, miraculous glow pierced the dusk. No words were needed. Trywell saw not a toy, but a lifeline. The next day, father and son worked side-by-side. They dragged the tallest pole to the hill. When the final bolt was tightened and the wind caught the blades, a collective gasp rose from the villagers who had come to watch. The creaking structure groaned to life. Days later, water, clear and impossible, began trickling from the pipe into the dry soil. William Kamkwamba did not simply build a machine. He built a future from scraps, proving that the most powerful resource in any struggling land is not in the ground, but in the mind. 1. What initially motivated William to seek a solution in the library? A. A desire to return to school and continue his formal education. B. The sight of his father’s silent despair over the failing crops. C. Peer pressure from other village boys to find a new idea. D. Instructions from a government agricultural brochure. 2. Why did William’s neighbors and father doubt his windmill project? A. They had tried and failed to build windmills many times before. B. They saw his efforts as a wasteful distraction from survival needs. C. They believed the library books were cursed and brought bad luck. D. They thought he tried to take over his father’s role as the family head. 3. Which of the following best shows William’s moment of truth in Para.3? A. A final step before he could start large-scale construction. B. A personal victory he wanted to keep secret from the village. C. A silent, powerful display that transformed doubt into support. D. A scientific victory that proved his theoretical calculations correct. 4. Which proverb best matches William’s story? A. Many hands make light work. B. Necessity is the mother of invention. C. A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. D. Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. B The Unseen Guardians: How Bats Shape Our Ecosystems Bats, often misunderstood and feared, are in fact irreplaceable guardians of global ecosystems. Representing over 20% of all mammal species, their roles are as diverse as they are critical. The vast majority are insect-eaters, acting as nature’s pest control. A single little brown bat can consume up to 1,000 mosquito-sized insects in one hour, protecting crops and reducing disease transmission. In tropical and desert regions, nectar-feeding bats are vital pollinators (授粉者) for over 500 plant species, including agave — the source of tequila (龙舌兰酒) and many fruits. Meanwhile, fruit bats are important seed dispersers; they swallow seeds while eating fruit and deposit them far from the parent tree, aiding forest regeneration across cleared lands. However, these guardians face an uncertain future. Habitat loss due to deforestation, disturbance of resting sites, and widespread pesticide (杀虫剂) use that destroys most of their insect food are severe threats. A devastating fungal disease called White-nose Syndrome has killed millions of bats in North America since 2006. Furthermore, slow reproduction rates (most species have only one baby bat per year) slow down population recovery. Conservation efforts s are many-sided. Protecting crucial habitats like caves and forests is fundamental. Installing “bat boxes” provides alternative roosts (栖息处). Public education campaigns aim to dispel myths and highlight bats’ benefits, turning fear into appreciation. Scientists are also studying bat immune systems, which may hold clues for combating diseases like White-Nose Syndrome. The survival of these unseen guardians is not just about saving bats; it’s about preserving the complex balance of the ecosystems that sustain us all. 5. What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs? A. To list all the bat species facing extinction. B. To compare different conservation strategies for bats. C. To explain the crucial ecological roles played by bats. D. To describe the major threats to bat populations worldwide. 6. What does the underlined word “dispersers” mean in Para. 2? A. Animals mainly feeding on fruit and seeds. B. Creatures spreading infectious diseases between plants. C. Creatures helping forests expand through scattering seeds. D. Animals being fond of collecting small items for the young. 7. According to the text, which is mentioned as a direct threat to bats? A. Reduced food supply due to pesticides. B. Illegal hunting for commercial purposes. C. Decrease in natural water sources for drinking. D. Destruction of bat migration routes by strong winds. 8. What can be inferred from the text about bat conservation? A. It relies simply on government actions and strict laws. B. It focuses mainly on breeding programs to increase their numbers. C. It has been so successful that most bat species are no longer endangered. D. It involves both physical protection and the change of human perceptions. Some of the 17 million Americans suffering from major depressive disorder may soon receive a surprising new suggestion from their doctors: Have fun on a virtual reality (VR) device. “Depression impacts so many people right now, and we thought VR could have a large impact,” said Bullock, founder of Stanford’s Neurobehavioral Clinic and Virtual Reality program. “There can be significant barriers to behavioral activation (行为激活) in some patients — they might be stuck in a hospital bed, or have no means to involve themselves in enjoyable activities like getting outside, exercising and volunteering. We started wondering whether simulated (模拟的) pleasant activities could be a good first step for them.” The study by Bullock’s team, published in JMIR Mental Health, followed 26 people with major depressive disorder. Half were told to plan and take part in real life activities like going on outings in their community or socializing with friends. The other half used a virtual reality headset to participate in activities ranging from table tennis to touring foreign cities or attending shows. After four weeks, people in both groups saw a decrease in their symptoms of depression and their depression rating by similar amounts. “People who might otherwise have barriers to getting treatment might be open to using this technology in their own homes,” said Margot Paul, a professor of mental and behavioral sciences. Bullock believes the cost and ease of many VR platforms — especially those that have mobile phones put into cheap cardboard headsets — make it an easy treatment to promote. The team says larger and longer-term studies are needed to find the best ways to practice virtual behavioral activation, as well as which patient populations might be best targeted with the VR treatment. They also think more efforts are needed to inform doctors about how to practice VR behavioral activation appropriately. 9. What is the benefit of using virtual reality to treat depression? A. It provides easier access to mood-lifting activities. B. It increases public awareness regarding depression. C. It motivates those with serious depression to get out. D. It is more effective than taking part in real life activities. 10. What’s Margot Paul’s attitude towards the VR treatment? A. Unclear. B. Favorable. C. Doubtful. D. Negative. 11. What might the follow-up study focus on? A. Cutting down on the cost of VR treatment. B. Exploring how VR lifts the patient’ spirits. C. Putting the VR treatment into practical use. D. Encouraging doctors to adopt VR treatment. 12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. VR — a simple tool to treat depression B. VR — a shared world without frontiers C. VR — a replacement for traditional drugs D. VR — a technology taking the world by storm 第二节（共5个小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The connection we build with our pets can sometimes be hard to understand from the outside.

The sanctuary cared for a variety of injured Australian animals, including playful kangaroos, curious koalas, talkative parrots and fat wombats (袋熊). It was a popular spot for families and nature lovers, who came to learn about wildlife conservation and interact with the gentle creatures. However, a sudden outbreak of an infectious plant disease forced the sanctuary to close to the public in early March this year, with the closure expected to last at least three months to prevent the disease from spreading further. Without the crowds of visitors, the sanctuary fell into an unusual silence. The animals, which had grown accustomed to the daily presence of humans — their laughter, gentle touches, and curious questions — now only saw the sanctuary staff. Soon, strange changes began to happen. The young koala named Lila, who once loved climbing onto visitors’ laps to have some eucalyptus (桉树) leaves, stopped eating properly and spent all day huddled in the corner of her tree hollow, refusing to move. One afternoon, after the caretaker Mia placed a fresh pile of eucalyptus branches in Lila’s cage, the koala didn’t even glance at them. She just stared blankly at the empty path where visitors used to walk. “She’s never been like this before,” Mia muttered anxiously. Dr. Carter, a wildlife veterinarian (兽医), was called to check on Lila. He examined her thoroughly and ruled out any physical illness. “Her body is healthy, so it might be stress or something related to the environment,” he said, scratching his chin thoughtfully. “Maybe we can adjust her cage to make it more comfortable and see if that helps.” But a week later, Lila’s condition didn’t improve. She had lost weight, and her fur looked dull. Desperate, the sanctuary team held a meeting. “We’ve tried everything for her physical health,” Mia said, her voice heavy. “What else could be wrong?” Then, the oldest caretaker at the sanctuary, Grandpa Joe, spoke up slowly: “Could it be that Lila misses the visitors? She’s always been the most social koala here.” 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。 Para.1 While everyone was doubtful, they agreed to give Grandpa Joe’s idea a try. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para.2 As Lila’s spirits lifted the sanctuary team realized the solution might work for other animals too. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 杭州二中2025学年第一学期高一年级期末考试 英语试卷 本试卷分为第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分，共150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.在答选择题时，用2B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。不能答在本试题卷上，否则无效。 第Ⅰ卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分22.5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。 1.

B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述干旱致使庄稼绝收，威廉从书本中获得灵感自制风车抗旱，用智慧拯救家乡的故事。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Fourteen-year-old William Kamkwamba watched his father, Trywell, stare at the dead cornfields — not with anger, but with the quiet agony of a man whose wisdom had been surpassed by a changing world. Driven by a restlessness that hunger couldn’t dull, William began haunting the village’s small, abandoned library.(14岁的威廉・坎宽巴看着父亲特里韦尔望着枯死的玉米地，没有愤怒，只有一个被瞬息万变的世界超越了智慧的男人的无声痛苦。一种连饥饿都无法磨灭的焦躁驱使着威廉，开始频频出入村里那间废弃的小图书馆)”可知，最初促使威廉去图书馆寻找解决办法的，是他看到父亲因庄稼歉收陷入无声绝望的模样。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The other boys laughed; books couldn’t fill a belly.(其他男孩都嘲笑他，书本根本填不饱肚子)”和第二段中“Even his father, seeing precious time spent on “toys” while the family starved, ordered him to stop.(甚至他的父亲，看着他在全家忍饥挨饿时，把宝贵的时间浪费在“玩具”上，也下令让他停止)”可知，邻居与父亲都认为他研究风车的行为，是偏离生存需求、毫无意义的浪费。故选B。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“One evening, as his father sat in defeated silence, William led him to the yard. He connected the dynamo to a small bulb, then gave the fan a mighty spin. A flicker, then a steady, miraculous glow pierced the dusk. No words were needed. Trywell saw not a toy, but a lifeline. The next day, father and son worked side-by-side.(一天晚上，父亲陷入绝望的沉默，威廉把他带到院子里。他将发电机接在小灯泡上，用力转动风扇。一丝闪烁过后，稳定又神奇的光亮刺破了黄昏。无需言语，特里韦尔看到的不再是玩具，而是救命稻草。第二天，父子俩并肩劳作)”可知，这个关键时刻是威廉用无声却极具说服力的展示，把旁人的怀疑转变成了支持。故选C。 【4题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕庄稼绝收、面临饥荒的生存困境展开，威廉为解决干旱灌溉问题，从书本学习知识、用废品制作出风车，核心是困境催生创造发明。A项“众人拾柴火焰高”、C项“一鸟在手胜过双鸟在林”、D 项“别过早打如意算盘”均与主旨不符，B项“需要是发明之母”最契合故事内涵。故选B。 B The Unseen Guardians: How Bats Shape Our Ecosystems Bats, often misunderstood and feared, are in fact irreplaceable guardians of global ecosystems. Representing over 20% of all mammal species, their roles are as diverse as they are critical. The vast majority are insect-eaters, acting as nature’s pest control. A single little brown bat can consume up to 1,000 mosquito-sized insects in one hour, protecting crops and reducing disease transmission. In tropical and desert regions, nectar-feeding bats are vital pollinators (授粉者) for over 500 plant species, including agave — the source of tequila (龙舌兰酒) and many fruits. Meanwhile, fruit bats are important seed dispersers; they swallow seeds while eating fruit and deposit them far from the parent tree, aiding forest regeneration across cleared lands. However, these guardians face an uncertain future. Habitat loss due to deforestation, disturbance of resting sites, and widespread pesticide (杀虫剂) use that destroys most of their insect food are severe threats. A devastating fungal disease called White-nose Syndrome has killed millions of bats in North America since 2006. Furthermore, slow reproduction rates (most species have only one baby bat per year) slow down population recovery. Conservation efforts s are many-sided. Protecting crucial habitats like caves and forests is fundamental. Installing “bat boxes” provides alternative roosts (栖息处). Public education campaigns aim to dispel myths and highlight bats’ benefits, turning fear into appreciation. Scientists are also studying bat immune systems, which may hold clues for combating diseases like White-Nose Syndrome. The survival of these unseen guardians is not just about saving bats; it’s about preserving the complex balance of the ecosystems that sustain us all. 5. What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs? A. To list all the bat species facing extinction. B. To compare different conservation strategies for bats. C. To explain the crucial ecological roles played by bats. D. To describe the major threats to bat populations worldwide. 6. What does the underlined word “dispersers” mean in Para. 2? A. Animals mainly feeding on fruit and seeds. B. Creatures spreading infectious diseases between plants. C. Creatures helping forests expand through scattering seeds. D. Animals being fond of collecting small items for the young. 7. According to the text, which is mentioned as a direct threat to bats? A. Reduced food supply due to pesticides. B. Illegal hunting for commercial purposes. C. Decrease in natural water sources for drinking. D. Destruction of bat migration routes by strong winds. 8. What can be inferred from the text about bat conservation? A. It relies simply on government actions and strict laws. B. It focuses mainly on breeding programs to increase their numbers. C. It has been so successful that most bat species are no longer endangered. D. It involves both physical protection and the change of human perceptions. 【答案】5. C 6. C 7. A 8. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了蝙蝠在生态系统中扮演的关键角色、面临的威胁及保护措施。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Bats, often misunderstood and feared, are in fact irreplaceable guardians of global ecosystems.(蝙蝠经常被误解和恐惧，但实际上是全球生态系统中不可替代的守护者)”以及第二段“In tropical and desert regions, nectar-feeding bats are vital pollinators for over 500 plant species, including agave — the source of tequila and many fruits. Meanwhile, fruit bats are important seed dispersers; they swallow seeds while eating fruit and deposit them far from the parent tree, aiding forest regeneration across cleared lands.(在热带和沙漠地区，食蜜的蝙蝠是500多种植物的重要授粉者，包括龙舌兰——龙舌兰酒和许多水果的来源。同时，果蝠是重要的种子传播者；它们在吃水果时吞下种子，并将种子存放在远离母树的地方，帮助清理过的土地上的森林再生)”可知，前两段主要解释了蝙蝠在生态系统中扮演的关键角色。故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“they swallow seeds while eating fruit and deposit them far from the parent tree, aiding forest regeneration across cleared lands.(它们在吃水果时吞下种子，并将种子存放在远离母树的地方，帮助清理过的土地上的森林再生)”可知，果蝠在吃水果时吞下种子，并将种子带到远离母树的地方，有助于森林在清理过的土地上再生，即果蝠是帮助森林通过散播种子来扩张的生物，故画线词意思是“通过散播种子帮助森林扩张的生物”。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Habitat loss due to deforestation, disturbance of resting sites, and widespread pesticide (杀虫剂) use that destroys most of their insect food are severe threats.(由于森林砍伐导致的栖息地丧失、栖息地的干扰以及广泛使用杀虫剂摧毁了它们的大部分昆虫食物，这些都是严重的威胁)”可知，文中提到由于杀虫剂导致食物供应减少是对蝙蝠的直接威胁。故选A。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Protecting crucial habitats like caves and forests is fundamental. Installing “bat boxes” provides alternative roosts (栖息处). Public education campaigns aim to dispel myths and highlight bats’ benefits, turning fear into appreciation.(保护洞穴和森林等关键栖息地是根本。安装“蝙蝠箱”提供替代栖息处。公众教育活动的目的是消除误解，强调蝙蝠的好处，把恐惧变成感激)”可推知，蝙蝠保护既包括物理保护，也包括改变人类的观念。故选D。 Some of the 17 million Americans suffering from major depressive disorder may soon receive a surprising new suggestion from their doctors: Have fun on a virtual reality (VR) device. “Depression impacts so many people right now, and we thought VR could have a large impact,” said Bullock, founder of Stanford’s Neurobehavioral Clinic and Virtual Reality program. “There can be significant barriers to behavioral activation (行为激活) in some patients — they might be stuck in a hospital bed, or have no means to involve themselves in enjoyable activities like getting outside, exercising and volunteering. We started wondering whether simulated (模拟的) pleasant activities could be a good first step for them.” The study by Bullock’s team, published in JMIR Mental Health, followed 26 people with major depressive disorder. Half were told to plan and take part in real life activities like going on outings in their community or socializing with friends. The other half used a virtual reality headset to participate in activities ranging from table tennis to touring foreign cities or attending shows. After four weeks, people in both groups saw a decrease in their symptoms of depression and their depression rating by similar amounts. “People who might otherwise have barriers to getting treatment might be open to using this technology in their own homes,” said Margot Paul, a professor of mental and behavioral sciences. Bullock believes the cost and ease of many VR platforms — especially those that have mobile phones put into cheap cardboard headsets — make it an easy treatment to promote. The team says larger and longer-term studies are needed to find the best ways to practice virtual behavioral activation, as well as which patient populations might be best targeted with the VR treatment. They also think more efforts are needed to inform doctors about how to practice VR behavioral activation appropriately. 9. What is the benefit of using virtual reality to treat depression? A. It provides easier access to mood-lifting activities. B. It increases public awareness regarding depression. C. It motivates those with serious depression to get out. D. It is more effective than taking part in real life activities. 10. What’s Margot Paul’s attitude towards the VR treatment? A. Unclear. B. Favorable. C. Doubtful. D. Negative. 11. What might the follow-up study focus on? A. Cutting down on the cost of VR treatment. B. Exploring how VR lifts the patient’ spirits. C. Putting the VR treatment into practical use. D. Encouraging doctors to adopt VR treatment. 12. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. VR — a simple tool to treat depression B. VR — a shared world without frontiers C. VR — a replacement for traditional drugs D. VR — a technology taking the world by storm 【答案】9. A 10. B 11. C 12. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一项关于使用虚拟现实（VR）技术治疗重度抑郁症患者的研究。研究发现，通过VR设备进行模拟的愉快活动与传统的现实生活中的活动一样，都能有效减轻患者的抑郁症状。研究人员认为，VR治疗成本低廉、易于推广，但仍需进一步的研究来确定最佳的实践方式，并让医生了解如何恰当地使用这种治疗方法。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“There can be significant barriers to behavioral activation (行为激活) in some patients — they might be stuck in a hospital bed, or have no means to involve themselves in enjoyable activities like getting outside, exercising and volunteering. We started wondering whether simulated (模拟的) pleasant activities could be a good first step for them.”（对于一些患者来说，行为激活可能存在重大障碍——他们可能被困在医院病床上，或者没有办法参与户外活动、锻炼和志愿服务等令人愉快的活动。我们想知道模拟的愉快活动是否是他们的良好第一步。）和第五段中“Bullock believes the cost and ease of many VR platforms — especially those that have mobile phones put into cheap cardboard headsets — make it an easy treatment to promote.”（布洛克认为，许多虚拟现实平台的成本和易用性——尤其是那些将手机放在廉价的纸板耳机上的平台——使其很容易推广。）可推知，对于一些抑郁症患者来说，他们可能没有办法参与令人愉快的活动，而虚拟现实可以让抑郁症患者更容易参加令人愉快的活动，因此，使用虚拟现实来治疗抑郁症的好处是它提供了让抑郁症患者更容易参加令人愉快的活动的途径。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中““People who might otherwise have barriers to getting treatment might be open to using this technology in their own homes,” said Margot Paul, a professor of mental and behavioral sciences.”（精神和行为科学教授Margot Paul说：“那些可能无法获得治疗的人可能会在自己家中使用这种技术。”）可知，Margot Paul认为虚拟现实治疗对于那些可能无法获得治疗的人来说是一个可行的选择，因此他对虚拟现实治疗持赞成态度。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The team says larger and longer-term studies are needed to find the best ways to practice virtual behavioral activation, as well as which patient populations might be best targeted with the VR treatment. They also think more efforts are needed to inform doctors about how to practice VR behavioral activation appropriately.”（该团队表示，需要进行更大规模、更长期的研究，以找到实践虚拟行为激活的最佳方法，以及哪些患者群体最适合接受虚拟现实治疗。他们还认为，需要做出更多努力，让医生了解如何适当地进行虚拟现实行为激活。）可推知，后续研究可能会关注如何将虚拟现实治疗付诸实践。故选C项。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Some of the 17 million Americans suffering from major depressive disorder may soon receive a surprising new suggestion from their doctors: Have fun on a virtual reality (VR) device.”（在1700万患有重度抑郁症的美国人中，一些人可能很快就会收到医生的一个令人惊讶的新建议：在虚拟现实(VR)设备上玩得开心。）和下文内容可知，文章主要介绍了虚拟现实作为一种新的治疗抑郁症的方法，它提供了更容易获得的心情提升活动，可能对那些无法获得传统治疗的人有所帮助。因此，文章的最佳标题应该是“VR — a simple tool to treat depression”（VR——一种简单的治疗抑郁症的工具）。故选A项。 第二节（共5个小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The connection we build with our pets can sometimes be hard to understand from the outside.

In a world that often feels busy, pets are good at keeping us in the present moment. They’re always there to greet us at the door, sleep next to us, and play. ____14____ Just a simple act of petting them can reduce stress and increase the “happiness hormone”. In challenging times, such as the loss of a loved one, a bad breakup or a rough time at work, we may feel down. ____15____ Whether they lick your tears away, offer comfort or even make a mess in the house that inevitably keeps your mind off things, their presence can help keep you emotionally engaged and present. ____16____ After adopting one, you’re suddenly responsible for keeping a small creature alive. This might sound a bit dramatic, we know, but let’s be real; that’s how most pet owners feel at first! However, once you get used to the idea, you realize you can feed another little being confidently. That is something really beneficial for pet owners. In our fast-paced world having a pet can be a true anchor for building a balanced lifestyle. Our furry friends help us create and stick to a routine. ____17____ Moreover, caring for pets develops responsibility and structure, teaching owners to prioritize self-care alongside work or academic demands.

A 14. E 15. C 16. D 17. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍宠物与主人的情感联结及其带来的多方面益处。 【13题详解】 根据上文的“When a friend comes over, they might find it odd the way we talk to our dog or think it is silly to put his water bowl in the most inconvenient spot in the house. (当朋友来访时，他们可能会觉得我们和狗狗说话的方式很奇怪，或者认为把它的水碗放在家里最不方便的位置是件很傻的事。)”可知，朋友对主人的行为表示不理解，空格处需回应这种“不理解”。A选项“Well, that’s how he likes it!(嗯，他就是喜欢这样！)”以主人的视角解释行为原因，用口语化表达承接上文对“奇怪行为”的描述，体现主人对宠物偏好的了解。故选A项。 【14题详解】 根据上文的“In a world that often feels busy, pets are good at keeping us in the present moment. They’re always there to greet us at the door, sleep next to us, and play. (在这个节奏匆忙的世界里，宠物总能帮助我们活在当下。它们永远在门口等着迎接我们，陪伴我们入睡，并和我们一起玩耍。)”可知，此处列举宠物带来的陪伴感，空格处需总结宠物存在的积极影响。E选项“Most pet owners find their presence incredibly pleasant.(大多数宠物主人觉得它们的存在非常令人愉悦。)”中的“presence”对应“greet us, sleep next to us, and play”，“incredibly pleasant”概括了陪伴带来的情感满足，与下文“减少压力、增加幸福激素”形成递进。故选E项。 【15题详解】 根据上文的“In challenging times, such as the loss of a loved one, a bad breakup or a rough time at work, we may feel down. (在困难时期，例如失去亲人、经历糟糕的分手或工作中遇到挫折时，我们可能会感到情绪低落。)”可知，此处描述负面情绪，结合下文的“Whether they lick your tears away, offer comfort or even make a mess in the house that inevitably keeps your mind off things, their presence can help keep you emotionally engaged and present. (无论它们是舔去你的泪水、提供安慰，还是在家里制造一些不可避免的小混乱让你暂时分心，它们的存在都能帮助你保持情感上的投入和当下的觉察。)”可知，空格处需引出宠物对负面情绪的改善作用。C选项“However, a pet can make all the difference.(然而，一只宠物可以改变一切。)”通过“However”表示转折，强调宠物在困难时期的关键作用，“make all the difference”与“帮助缓解情绪”形成语义衔接。故选C项。 【16题详解】 根据下文的“After adopting one, you’re suddenly responsible for keeping a small creature alive. This might sound a bit dramatic, we know, but let’s be real; that’s how most pet owners feel at first! However, once you get used to the idea, you realize you can feed another little being confidently. (领养宠物后，你突然要为照顾一个小小的生命负起责任。虽然听上去可能有点夸张，但我们知道，大多数宠物主一开始都会有这样的感受！然而，一旦你逐渐适应这个角色，你就会意识到自己完全可以自信地喂养和照顾另一个小生命。这对宠物主人来说是一件非常有益的事情。)”可知，本段核心是“养宠物带来的自信提升”。D选项“Owning a pet can aid in boosting your confidence.(养宠物有助于增强自信。)”中的“boosting your confidence”直接呼应下文“confidently”，作为主题句概括了段落主旨。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Our furry friends help us create and stick to a routine.(我们的毛茸茸的朋友帮助我们建立并坚持日常习惯。)”可知，此处强调宠物对生活规律的影响，空格处需举例说明具体习惯。F选项“For example, a dog’s daily walk enforces physical activity.(例如，狗的每日散步会促使主人进行体育活动。)”中的“daily walk”是日常习惯的具体体现，“enforces physical activity”补充了规律生活对健康的益处，符合“建立日常习惯”的论述逻辑。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，满分45分） 第一节 完形填空（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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 During a work break last spring, I was checking my Facebook when I noticed a friend request among the notifications when I looked more closely, I was ____18____ to see my grandmother’s picture next to it. “Barbara Haywood sent you a friend request,” the notification stated.

The sanctuary cared for a variety of injured Australian animals, including playful kangaroos, curious koalas, talkative parrots and fat wombats (袋熊). It was a popular spot for families and nature lovers, who came to learn about wildlife conservation and interact with the gentle creatures. However, a sudden outbreak of an infectious plant disease forced the sanctuary to close to the public in early March this year, with the closure expected to last at least three months to prevent the disease from spreading further. Without the crowds of visitors, the sanctuary fell into an unusual silence. The animals, which had grown accustomed to the daily presence of humans — their laughter, gentle touches, and curious questions — now only saw the sanctuary staff. Soon, strange changes began to happen. The young koala named Lila, who once loved climbing onto visitors’ laps to have some eucalyptus (桉树) leaves, stopped eating properly and spent all day huddled in the corner of her tree hollow, refusing to move. One afternoon, after the caretaker Mia placed a fresh pile of eucalyptus branches in Lila’s cage, the koala didn’t even glance at them. She just stared blankly at the empty path where visitors used to walk. “She’s never been like this before,” Mia muttered anxiously. Dr. Carter, a wildlife veterinarian (兽医), was called to check on Lila. He examined her thoroughly and ruled out any physical illness. “Her body is healthy, so it might be stress or something related to the environment,” he said, scratching his chin thoughtfully. “Maybe we can adjust her cage to make it more comfortable and see if that helps.” But a week later, Lila’s condition didn’t improve. She had lost weight, and her fur looked dull. Desperate, the sanctuary team held a meeting. “We’ve tried everything for her physical health,” Mia said, her voice heavy. “What else could be wrong?” Then, the oldest caretaker at the sanctuary, Grandpa Joe, spoke up slowly: “Could it be that Lila misses the visitors? She’s always been the most social koala here.” 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。 Para.1 While everyone was doubtful, they agreed to give Grandpa Joe’s idea a try. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para.2 As Lila’s spirits lifted, the sanctuary team realized the solution might work for other animals too. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 While everyone was doubtful, they agreed to give Grandpa Joe’s idea a try. Mia played the sounds of visitors laughing and talking, which she had recorded before the closure. They also put some items that visitors usually brought, like toys and hats, near the cages. At first, Lila just stared at these things. But after a while, she slowly moved out of her tree hollow and sniffed at the toys. Then she actually reached out and took a small hat in her paw, which made everyone in the room cheer with joy. As Lila’s spirits lifted, the sanctuary team realized the solution might work for other animals too. They did the same for the kangaroos, parrots and wombats. The kangaroos, which had been lying around lazily, started to jump around happily when they heard the familiar sounds. The parrots, which had stopped singing, began to chirp again. The wombats, which had been hiding in their burrows, came out and explored their surroundings. The sanctuary was once again filled with life and energy, and it was all because they understood the importance of the emotional connection between animals and humans. 【解析】 【导语】本文以动物为线索展开，讲述了在悉尼“Bush Haven Sanctuary”野生动物保护区，一只名叫莉拉的小考拉因保护区关闭、游客减少而出现精神萎靡、食欲不振的情况，兽医检查后排除身体疾病，大家尝试各种方法无果后，老饲养员乔爷爷提出可能是莉拉想念游客，大家决定尝试乔爷爷的办法来改善莉拉状况的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“虽然大家都心存疑虑，但还是同意试试乔爷爷的主意。”可知，第一段可描写大家为吸引游客模拟游客场景，莉拉逐渐恢复活力的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“随着莉拉的精神好转，保护区团队意识到这个办法或许对其他动物也有效。”可知，第二段可描写团队用同样方法帮助其他动物，保护区恢复生机，强调人与动物情感联系的重要性。 2.续写线索：模拟游客场景——莉拉逐渐恢复——尝试帮助其他动物——保护区恢复生机——感悟人与动物情感联系 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①播放声音：play the sounds/let the sounds out ②放置物品：put the items/place the objects ③欢快地欢呼：cheer with joy/shout with joy/exclaim with delight 情绪类 ①开心地：happily/delightedly/joyfully ②充满希望：be full of hope/be hopeful 【点睛】【高分句型1】Mia played the sounds of visitors laughing and talking, which she had recorded before the closure.
