On this day, schools hold special events where students show appreciation through performances, songs and small gifts such as flowers or cards.(墨西哥在5月15日庆祝教师节，这一传统始于1918年。在这一天，学校会举办特色活动，学生们通过表演、歌唱，以及赠送鲜花、贺卡这类小礼物的方式表达感恩之情)”和Malaysia部分中的“Malaysia observes Teachers’ Day on May 16, commemorating（纪念）the adoption of the Razak Report in 1956, which laid the foundation of the nation’s national education system. On this day, schools hold celebrations where students and communities express gratitude with cards, small gifts, flowers or symbols of appreciation.(马来西亚于 5 月 16 日庆祝教师节，以此纪念 1956 年《拉扎克报告》的通过，这份报告为马来西亚的国家教育体系奠定了基础。在这一天，学校会举办庆祝活动，学生与各界民众会通过赠送贺卡、小礼物、鲜花或其他感恩信物的方式表达谢意)”可知，墨西哥和马来西亚的教师节都在五月份，且都有赠送礼物表达感恩的传统。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章开篇介绍了联合国教科文组织设立的世界教师节，随后分别详细介绍了印度、墨西哥、越南和马来西亚四个国家教师节的时间、设立背景和庆祝传统。由此可知，文章的写作目的是介绍不同国家教师节的相关情况。故选A项。 B I never realised how much public speaking would be part of a writer’s life. After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others. Then, just before the release of my fourth book, an invitation arrived for a literary festival. I assumed it would be a comfortable on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed. The night before my session, an organiser walked me through the venue — a small tent set up in the town square. Another author was speaking, and I saw in horror that there was no interviewer, no table. Just one person standing alone, holding the attention of about eighty people, “How long does each talk last?” I managed to ask. “Around fifty minutes,” the organiser replied cheerfully. “We like to leave time for questions.” My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane — it was time to build a parachute (降落伞). Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes (趣闻轶事), recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird, I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came. As I walked off the stage, the wave of nervous energy finally disappearing, I realised I had survived. My final conclusion: it had gone... okay. There were moments of laughter, moments of awkward silence. But the tent didn’t collapse, and I didn’t run offstage. There’s no secret to overcoming the fear of public speaking. You just have to do it — accept that you won’t be great at first, and trust that you’ll improve. After that festival, I had a basic speech structure, which I refined over time. The dread I once felt slowly transformed into a nervous energy that felt almost like excitement. Now, given the choice between a moderated (有主持人引导的)interview and speaking solo for fifty minutes, I’d choose the latter. That way, I’m in control — not just of the words, but of the rhythm, the pauses, the connection. And that kind of control is a kind of freedom. 4. How did the author initially feel about public speaking? A. He was terrified of it. B. He got used to it. C. He was happy to do it. D. He was curious about it. 5. Why did the author agree to attend the literary festival at first? A. He began to love public speaking in front of many people. B. He wanted to promote his fourth book actively. C. He thought the on-stage interview would be relaxing. D. He was invited by many readers of his books. 6. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about? A. The time of the author’s talk. B. The venue of the literary festival. C. The author’s fear of public speaking. D. The author’s preparation and pre-speech nerves. 7. What does freedom mean according to the author? A. A good performance in public speaking. B. A sense of control over what you do. C. Having no nervous energy in speech. D. Choosing moderated interview every time. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者从恐惧公众演讲，到被迫尝试并逐步克服恐惧，最终享受演讲的转变过程及感悟。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others.(我的前三本书出版后，没人邀请我演讲，这太合我意了——我一直害怕在众人面前演讲)”可知，作者最初对公众演讲的感受是恐惧。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Then, just before the release of my fourth book, an invitation arrived for a literary festival. I assumed it would be a comfortable on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed.(然后，就在我的第四本书出版前夕，我收到了一个文学节的邀请。我以为会是一场舒适的舞台采访，讨论我的写作过程。虽然仍然不安，但我还是同意了)”可知，作者最初同意参加文学节，是因为他认为舞台采访会很轻松。故选C项。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第六段中的“My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane — it was time to build a parachute (降落伞). Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes (趣闻轶事), recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird, I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came.(我的大脑切换到了求生模式。再过几个小时，我就像要被推出飞机——是时候准备降落伞了。回到酒店房间，我用旧的趣闻轶事、最近的尴尬经历，以及我正在推广的这本书的节选拼凑了一篇演讲稿。我的心像一只被困的鸟一样怦怦直跳，我走向帐篷，低声重复着我的台词……并默默祈祷那一刻来临时我的声音不会失灵)”可知，该段主要讲述了作者演讲前的准备工作以及紧张的心情。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“That way, I’m in control — not just of the words, but of the rhythm, the pauses, the connection. And that kind of control is a kind of freedom.(那样的话，我就掌控了一切——不仅是语言，还有节奏、停顿和与观众的联结。而这种掌控就是一种自由)”可知，作者认为的自由是对自己所做之事的掌控感。故选B项。 C Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the Internet, or when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities. Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. Some health care systems in the United States now offer Virtual Urgent Care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home. Diana Rae recently demonstrated how Virtual Urgent Care works. She used an iPad tablet and Skype — the video chat service. Doctor Green first has the patient describe her symptoms (症状). Then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is an infection and gives her some penicillin for medicine. He says about 3 out of 4 patients who have health problems can be treated like this — through Virtual Urgent Care, which means a video chat could substitute a visit to the doctor’s office. Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call, that is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctor’s office or an urgent care clinic. After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says she would be happy to pay the 35 dollars, when she was recently home with a bad cold. “I would have paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else’s germs (病菌).” Rae said. But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with development in telemedicine. The workers who provide Virtual Urgent Care must be licensed separately in each state where the company does business. For now, that means Franciscan doctors can treat patients in Washington state and California, for example, but not in neighbouring Oregon or Idaho. 8. What is helping telemedicine to rise to new stages? A. Specialists working in rural areas. B. The development of new medical drugs. C More patients needing urgent care at home. D. The rise of smartphones, tablets and computers. 9. What does the underlined word “substitute” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Replace. B. Adjust. C. Seek. D. Expand. 10. Why would Diana Rae be happy to pay Virtual Urgent Care even more? A. The doctor gave her effective penicillin medicine. B. She doesn’t need to wait or get exposed to germs. C. Virtual care treats 3/4 of all health problems. D. It is safe, free and convenient. 11. Why can’t Virtual Urgent Care develop fast now? A. Doctors are not good at telemedicine skills. B. Few patients need Virtual Urgent Care service. C. State rules don’t match telemedicine development. D. Companies lack money to run telemedicine business. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍远程医疗的定义、发展推动因素、实际应用案例、费用优势及当前发展受州规限制的问题。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels.(远程医疗已经存在很长时间了，但智能手机、平板电脑和配备网络摄像头的电脑的兴起，正将远程医疗提升到新的高度)”可知，智能手机、平板电脑和电脑的兴起推动远程医疗迈向新阶段。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“He says about 3 out of 4 patients who have health problems can be treated like this — through Virtual Urgent Care, which means a video chat could substitute a visit to the doctor’s office.(他说，大约四分之三有健康问题的患者都可以通过这种虚拟急诊护理的方式接受治疗——这意味着视频聊天可以substitute去医生办公室就诊)”可知，通过视频聊天的虚拟急诊护理能治疗多数患者，可替代线下就诊，由此猜测substitute意为“替代”。与Replace同义。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Diana Rae says she would be happy to pay the 35 dollars, when she was recently home with a bad cold. “I would have paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else’s germs (病菌).” Rae said.(戴安娜·雷说，最近她感冒在家时，很乐意支付这35美元。“为了能方便地接受治疗，不用坐在候诊室等待，也不用接触其他人的病菌，我愿意支付双倍的费用。”雷说)”可知，戴安娜愿意支付更多费用，是因为虚拟急诊护理无需等待，也不会接触到病菌。故选B项。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with development in telemedicine. The workers who provide Virtual Urgent Care must be licensed separately in each state where the company does business.(但一位公司官员表示，州的规定未能跟上远程医疗的发展步伐。提供虚拟急诊护理的工作人员必须在公司开展业务的每个州分别获得执照)”可知，当前虚拟急诊护理无法快速发展的原因是州规与远程医疗发展不匹配。故选C项。 D Every third Friday of May, we pause to recognize the fragile (易损的) existence of endangered species. We share the planet with countless animals, plants, and insects. Yet, many of them are disappearing right before our eyes. National Endangered Species Day urges us to take action before it’s too late. The day was established in 2006 by the US Congress to raise awareness about species in danger of dying out. But the issue goes back decades. Laws to protect endangered species have been around for over 40 years. Today, the urgency remains the same. Species are still disappearing, and their habitats are under threat. When the last of a species disappears, it’s gone forever. Endangered species are dangerously close to that fate (命运). Their numbers are so low that every birth counts, every death matters. Some remain in the thousands, others in the hundreds, and a few are down to mere tens. When a species disappears, it doesn’t go quietly. The loss greatly affects ecosystems. When a species disappears, its prey (被捕食者) populations explode. Plants die off, and animals lose their food source. The web of life is fragile, and every species has a role. Take pollinators (昆虫授粉), for instance. Bees, butterflies, and bats help plants reproduce. If they disappear, crops fail, and food chains fall apart. National Endangered Species Day reminds us that time is running out for many species. But the fate of these animals, plants, and insects isn’t set in stone. Organizations like the World Wildlife Federation and the Jane Goodall Institute work tirelessly to protect endangered species. They fund anti-poaching efforts, save injured animals, and restore habitats. Individuals can help too. Donate to wildlife organizations. Volunteer at local conservation centres. adopt sustainable habits such as using less plastic. Every choice, no matter how small, can make a difference. Saving endangered species isn’t just about protecting animals. It’s about preserving ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and ensuring a balanced, healthy planet for future generations. And that future starts with us. 12. What do we know about National Endangered Species Day? A. It was set up by US Congress in 2006. B. It started to protect habitats 40 years ago. C. It is on the first Friday of every May. D. It makes species stop disappearing. 13. What does Paragraph 4 focus on? A. Why pollinators are important to plants. B. How species loss harms ecosystems. C. What causes species to disappear quickly. D. Which animals help plants reproduce. 14. What can we infer from the text? A. Small choices have no influence on species. B. Only organizations can protect endangered species. C. Saving species helps keep the planet healthy. D. Endangered species’ fate can’t be changed. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Endangered Species: Disappearing Quickly B. National Endangered Species Day: Act Now C. How to Protect Endangered Species Well D. Why So Many Species Are in Danger 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍美国国家濒危物种日的由来，并阐述物种灭绝的危害及个人和组织的保护行动。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The day was established in 2006 by the US Congress to raise awareness about species in danger of dying out.(这个节日由美国国会于2006年设立，旨在提高人们对濒临灭绝物种的关注。)”可知，国家濒危物种日是美国国会在2006年设立的。故选A项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段中的“When a species disappears, it doesn’t go quietly. The loss greatly affects ecosystems. When a species disappears, its prey(被捕食者)populations explode. Plants die off, and animals lose their food source. The web of life is fragile, and every species has a role. Take pollinators (昆虫授粉), for instance. Bees, butterflies, and bats help plants reproduce. If they disappear, crops fail, and food chains fall apart.(一个物种的消失，从来都不是悄无声息的。这种消亡会严重破坏生态系统的平衡。某一物种消失后，其猎物的数量会急剧激增，植物相继枯萎死亡，其他动物也会失去赖以生存的食物来源。生命之网本就脆弱，每个物种都在其中扮演着不可或缺的角色。以传粉生物为例，蜜蜂、蝴蝶和蝙蝠助力植物繁衍生长，一旦它们消失，农作物会歉收，整个食物链也会随之崩塌。)”可知，第四段重点说明物种消失如何对生态系统造成的危害。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Saving endangered species isn’t just about protecting animals. It’s about preserving ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and ensuring a balanced, healthy planet for future generations.(拯救濒危物种不仅仅是保护动物，更是为了维护生态系统、保护生物多样性，为后代守护一个平衡、健康的地球。)”可推知，拯救物种有助于维持地球的健康状态。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章开篇介绍国家濒危物种日的时间和设立初衷，接着阐述濒危物种的现状、物种消失的危害，最后呼吁个人和组织采取行动保护濒危物种，核心是借该节日倡导人们立即行动起来保护濒危物种。B项“国家濒危物种日：立即行动”为最佳标题。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Stay Calm No matter Who Pushes Your Buttons Have you ever felt like some people exist just to test your patience?

Choose whose voice you hear ____18____. Here’s your new motto (座右铭): Not everyone’s opinion matters. Say it. Believe it. Live it.

They will cut you off in traffic. They will reply with one-word texts. They will talk during movies. So change your approach: when someone says something rude, laugh. Not a forced, polite laugh — but a genuine, amused chuckle (轻声笑). It throws people off. After all, they expect anger, rather than amusement. Build a high-tolerance mindset Here’s the final step: train yourself to be unshakable, How? Practise. Stand in long lines without sighing or complaining. Scroll (滚动) through social media without reacting to every annoying post. Let someone cut you off in traffic and simply nod.

The slow walkers, the loud eaters, the overly dramatic ones—yes, them. But guess what?(你是否有过这种感觉：有些人的存在，仿佛就是为了考验你的耐心？走路磨磨蹭蹭的人、吃饭吧唧嘴的人、小题大做的戏精 —— 没错，就是这些人。但你知道吗？)”以及下文“The following are some suggestions on becoming untouchable mentally, emotionally, and psychologically.(以下是一些让你在心理、情绪和精神上都不受外界干扰的建议)”可知，空格处需要承上启下，点明不必让这类人打扰自己，引出后文的具体建议。F选项“You don’t have to let such people bother you.(你不必让这类人打扰到自己)”精准衔接上下文，回应前文的烦躁场景，同时引出后文的冷静技巧，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 此处为段落小标题，需概括本段核心内容。根据下文“The first rule of never getting angry: realize that most people aren’t worth the energy it takes to get upset. Think about it—when someone cuts you off in traffic or deliberately tries to provoke（挑衅）you, what do you gain by reacting? Anger only exhausts you, while the other person moves on without caring.(不生气的首要准则：要明白，大多数人根本不值得你为其动怒耗费心力。你不妨想想 —— 开车时有人突然抢道，或是有人故意挑衅你，你贸然回应又能得到什么呢？愤怒只会让你身心俱疲，而对方却毫不在意、自顾自地继续生活)”可知，本段核心是要学会不在意那些不值得的人，不把精力浪费在生气上。D选项“Master the power of not caring.(掌握不在意的能力)”精准概括本段主旨，统领全段内容，符合小标题要求。故选D项。 【18题详解】 根据本段小标题“Choose whose voice you hear(选择去听谁的声音)”以及下文“Here’s your new motto（座右铭）: Not everyone’s opinion matters. Say it. Believe it. Live it. Unless someone is supporting you, feeding you, or holds a legal agreement with you, their opinions hold no real power.(这就是你的新座右铭：不是所有人的看法都值得放在心上。把这句话说出来，坚信它，践行它。除非有人为你提供支持、供你衣食，或是与你签订了具有法律效力的协议，否则他们的看法根本无足轻重)”可知，空格处需要贴合主题，点明不要让他人的看法占据自己的思绪。B选项“Stop letting other people’s opinions occupy space in your mind.(别再让别人的看法占据你的脑海)”紧扣“筛选他人评价”的主题，衔接后文“并非所有人的看法都重要”的观点，符合语境。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Accept this difficult truth: many people simply lack basic life awareness.(接受这个残酷的事实：很多人就是缺乏基本的生活觉知)”以及下文“but about not realizing how their actions affect others.(而是他们没有意识到自己的行为会对他人造成影响)”中的“but”可知，空格处需要与后文形成转折，说明这类人的问题并非在于某一方面，而是在于未意识到行为的影响。E选项“This isn’t about lacking intelligence.(这并非是因为他们缺乏智商)”以“This isn’t about...but about...”的固定句式衔接上下文，精准契合转折逻辑，符合语境。故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Let someone cut you off in traffic and simply nod.

My mind was full of the math problems I had to finish that evening, so I pushed a shopping cart and put daily food into it mechanically (机械地): pasta, a jar of tomato sauce, two apples, a piece of cheddar cheese, a cheap chicken breast (my mum told me to buy it specially), and my sister’s favourite yogurt. At the checkout counter, the cashier — a woman with tired eyes — scanned the items quickly, just like she had done hundreds of times before. The beeping noise kept ringing in my ears. “That’ll be $128.75,” she said in a flat voice. I took out my wallet, but I felt deeply embarrassed when I found I was $12 short. My face turned red immediately. “I... I’m so sorry,” I stammered, not daring to look at her. I could feel the impatient stares from the people waiting in line behind me. “I thought I had more money. I’ll just... I can take the cheese back.” Just as I started taking things out of the cart, a calm and gentle voice came from behind: “Wait.” I turned around and saw a man about 50 years old standing in line. He had kind eyes and a soft smile, and he didn’t look annoyed at all — instead, he looked understanding. “Please don’t take it back,” he said, holding out a $20 bill to the cashier. “It’s not a big deal at all.” “No, really, I can’t accept this,” I said firmly. I felt more hurt to my pride than embarrassed. “It’s my mistake. Thank you, but I’ll manage.” The man smiled more warmly. “Young man, we’ve all been in this kind of situation. Honestly, it’s just a few dollars. Just help someone else in need when you get the chance later.” His voice was so sincere that I couldn’t refuse anymore. I saw no pity in his eyes, only simple kindness between people. “Let me tell you a story,” he said. “My mum is fighting cancer at City Hospital,” his voice was calm but with a small, hard to-notice shake. “I always bring her fresh roses every day when I visit — they’re her favourite. But this morning, she got angry and refused to take my flowers, no matter what I said. She told me I should use the money to help people who really need it,” he paused and looked at me seriously. 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。 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness. I choked out my thanks, my face still warm with emotion. The man patted my arm softly, repeating, “Pass the kindness on.” Watching him leave the supermarket, the cold lights no longer felt lifeless. The people behind me nodded gently, and the cashier’s tired eyes softened. I clutched the cheese, knowing his mother’s love and his goodness had warmed this autumn afternoon deeply. His words stayed in my heart, a promise I was determined to keep. I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. Every weekend, I saved a little pocket money and volunteered at a community food bank. Once, I helped a kid who couldn’t afford his favorite snacks, just like the man helped me. When he thanked me, I smiled and said, “Help someone else in need later.” Bit by bit, I passed on that warmth. I realized kindness isn’t big gestures, but small acts that connect hearts, just as the man and his mother taught me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了“我”因购物差钱陷入尴尬，一位陌生男子主动帮忙解围，并分享其母亲患病却劝他助人的故事，“我”深受触动，决心传递这份善意的经历。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句“当我接受他的好意时，我热泪盈眶。”可知，接下来可描写“我”接受善意时的激动心情、对男子的感激，以及男子离开后“我”的内心触动。 ② 由第二段首句“我决心找出将承诺付诸实践的方法。”可知，接下来可描写“我”践行承诺的具体行动，通过小事传递善意，体现善意的传承。 2. 续写线索： 接受善意并感激落泪——男子嘱托传递温暖——践行承诺主动助人——感悟善意真谛（平凡小事暖人心） 3.词类激活： 行为类 ①抓住：clutch/grasp/grip ②决心做某事：be determined to do/make up one’s mind to do ③意识到：realize/recognize/be aware of 情绪类 ①因感动而内心温暖：warm with emotion/brimming with tender emotion ②疲惫的：tired/exhausted 【点睛】【高分句型1】I choked out my thanks, my face still warm with emotion. （运用了独立主格结构） 【高分句型2】 I clutched the cheese, knowing his mother’s love and his goodness had warmed this autumn afternoon deeply. （运用了现在分分词knowing作状语以及省略连接词that的宾语从句） 【高分句型3】Once, I helped a kid who couldn’t afford his favorite snacks, just like the man helped me. （运用了who引导的限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 钦州市2025年秋季学期高二年级期末教学质量监测 英语 （试卷满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，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；回答非选择题时，用0.5mm的黑色字迹签字笔将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 4.本卷主要命题范围：外研版选择性必修第一册~选择性必修第二册。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

B I never realised how much public speaking would be part of a writer’s life. After my first three books were published, no one asked me to give a speech, which suited me perfectly — I had always been terrified of speaking in front of others. Then just before the release of my fourth book, an invitation arrived for a literary festival. I assumed it would be a comfortable on-stage interview, discussing my writing process. Though still uneasy, I agreed. The night before my session, an organiser walked me through the venue — a small tent set up in the town square. Another author was speaking, and I saw in horror that there was no interviewer, no table. Just one person standing alone, holding the attention of about eighty people, “How long does each talk last?” I managed to ask. “Around fifty minutes,” the organiser replied cheerfully. “We like to leave time for questions.” My mind switched into survival mode. In just a few hours, I’d be pushed out of a plane — it was time to build a parachute (降落伞). Back in my hotel room, I pieced together a talk from old anecdotes (趣闻轶事), recent embarrassments, and excerpts from the book I was promoting. With my heart pounding like a trapped bird, I walked toward the tent, repeating my lines under my breath... and sent up a silent prayer that my voice wouldn’t fail me when the moment came. As I walked off the stage, the wave of nervous energy finally disappearing, I realised I had survived. My final conclusion: it had gone... okay. There were moments of laughter, moments of awkward silence. But the tent didn’t collapse, and I didn’t run offstage. There’s no secret to overcoming the fear of public speaking. You just have to do it — accept that you won’t be great at first, and trust that you’ll improve. After that festival, I had a basic speech structure, which I refined over time. The dread I once felt slowly transformed into a nervous energy that felt almost like excitement. Now, given the choice between a moderated (有主持人引导的)interview and speaking solo for fifty minutes, I’d choose the latter. That way, I’m in control — not just of the words, but of the rhythm, the pauses, the connection. And that kind of control is a kind of freedom. 4. How did the author initially feel about public speaking? A. He was terrified of it. B. He got used to it. C. He was happy to do it. D. He was curious about it. 5. Why did the author agree to attend the literary festival at first? A. He began to love public speaking in front of many people. B. He wanted to promote his fourth book actively. C. He thought the on-stage interview would be relaxing. D. He was invited by many readers of his books. 6. What does Paragraph 6 mainly talk about? A. The time of the author’s talk. B. The venue of the literary festival. C. The author’s fear of public speaking. D. The author’s preparation and pre-speech nerves. 7. What does freedom mean according to the author? A. A good performance in public speaking. B A sense of control over what you do. C. Having no nervous energy in speech. D. Choosing moderated interview every time. C Telemedicine is the name for when doctors give advice to patients by telephone or the Internet, or when health care providers in rural areas connect with specialists in big cities. Telemedicine has existed for a long time, but the rise of smart phones, tablets and webcam-equipped computers is raising telemedicine to new levels. Some health care systems in the United States now offer Virtual Urgent Care, patients see a doctor by video chat without having to leave home. Diana Rae recently demonstrated how Virtual Urgent Care works She used an iPad tablet and Skype — the video chat service. Doctor Green first has the patient describe her symptoms (症状). Then the doctor performs a physical exam by demonstrating what he wants her to do. Doctor Green decides that the problem is an infection and gives her some penicillin for medicine. He says about 3 out of 4 patients who have health problems can be treated like this — through Virtual Urgent Care, which means a video chat could substitute a visit to the doctor’s office. Franciscan charges $35 for this kind of virtual house call, that is much less than the cost of going to an emergency room, a doctor’s office or an urgent care clinic. After trying the video conference, Diana Rae says she would be happy to pay the 35 dollars, when she was recently home with a bad cold. “I would have paid twice that for the convenience of getting taken care of without having to sit in a waiting room, wait, and get exposed to everyone else’s germs (病菌).” Rae said. But a company official says state rules have not kept progress with development in telemedicine. The workers who provide Virtual Urgent Care must be licensed separately in each state where the company does business. For now, that means Franciscan doctors can treat patients in Washington state and California, for example, but not in neighbouring Oregon or Idaho. 8. What is helping telemedicine to rise to new stages? A. Specialists working in rural areas. B. The development of new medical drugs. C. More patients needing urgent care at home. D. The rise of smartphones, tablets and computers. 9. What does the underlined word “substitute” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Replace. B. Adjust. C. Seek. D. Expand. 10. Why would Diana Rae be happy to pay Virtual Urgent Care even more? A. The doctor gave her effective penicillin medicine. B. She doesn’t need to wait or get exposed to germs. C. Virtual care treats 3/4 of all health problems. D. It is safe, free and convenient. 11. Why can’t Virtual Urgent Care develop fast now? A. Doctors are not good at telemedicine skills. B. Few patients need Virtual Urgent Care service. C. State rules don’t match telemedicine development. D. Companies lack money to run telemedicine business. D Every third Friday of May, we pause to recognize the fragile (易损的) existence of endangered species. We share the planet with countless animals, plants, and insects. Yet, many of them are disappearing right before our eyes. National Endangered Species Day urges us to take action before it’s too late. The day was established in 2006 by the US Congress to raise awareness about species in danger of dying out. But the issue goes back decades. Laws to protect endangered species have been around for over 40 years. Today, the urgency remains the same. Species are still disappearing, and their habitats are under threat. When the last of a species disappears, it’s gone forever. Endangered species are dangerously close to that fate (命运). Their numbers are so low that every birth counts, every death matters. Some remain in the thousands, others in the hundreds, and a few are down to mere tens. When a species disappears, it doesn’t go quietly. The loss greatly affects ecosystems. When a species disappears, its prey (被捕食者) populations explode. Plants die off, and animals lose their food source. The web of life is fragile, and every species has a role. Take pollinators (昆虫授粉), for instance. Bees, butterflies, and bats help plants reproduce. If they disappear, crops fail, and food chains fall apart. National Endangered Species Day reminds us that time is running out for many species. But the fate of these animals, plants, and insects isn’t set in stone. Organizations like the World Wildlife Federation and the Jane Goodall Institute work tirelessly to protect endangered species. They fund anti-poaching efforts, save injured animals, and restore habitats. Individuals can help too. Donate to wildlife organizations. Volunteer at local conservation centres. adopt sustainable habits such as using less plastic. Every choice, no matter how small, can make a difference. Saving endangered species isn’t just about protecting animals. It’s about preserving ecosystems, supporting biodiversity, and ensuring a balanced, healthy planet for future generations. And that future starts with us. 12. What do we know about National Endangered Species Day? A. It was set up by US Congress in 2006. B. It started to protect habitats 40 years ago. C. It is on the first Friday of every May. D. It makes species stop disappearing. 13. What does Paragraph 4 focus on? A. Why pollinators are important to plants. B. How species loss harms ecosystems. C. What causes species to disappear quickly. D. Which animals help plants reproduce. 14. What can we infer from the text? A. Small choices have no influence on species. B. Only organizations can protect endangered species. C. Saving species helps keep the planet healthy. D Endangered species’ fate can’t be changed. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. Endangered Species: Disappearing Quickly B. National Endangered Species Day: Act Now C. How to Protect Endangered Species Well D. Why So Many Species Are in Danger 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。 How to Stay Calm No matter Who Pushes Your Buttons Have you ever felt like some people exist just to test your patience?

My mind was full of the math problems I had to finish that evening, so I pushed a shopping cart and put daily food into it mechanically (机械地): pasta, a jar of tomato sauce, two apples, a piece of cheddar cheese, a cheap chicken breast (my mum told me to buy it specially), and my sister’s favourite yogurt. At the checkout counter, the cashier — a woman with tired eyes — scanned the items quickly, just like she had done hundreds of times before. The beeping noise kept ringing in my ears. “That’ll be $128.75,” she said in a flat voice. I took out my wallet, but I felt deeply embarrassed when I found I was $12 short. My face turned red immediately. “I... I’m so sorry,” I stammered, not daring to look at her. I could feel the impatient stares from the people waiting in line behind me. “I thought I had more money. I’ll just... I can take the cheese back.” Just as I started taking things out of the cart, a calm and gentle voice came from behind: “Wait.” I turned around and saw a man about 50 years old standing in line. He had kind eyes and a soft smile, and he didn’t look annoyed at all — instead, he looked understanding. “Please don’t take it back,” he said, holding out a $20 bill to the cashier. “It’s not a big deal at all.” “No, really, I can’t accept this,” I said firmly. I felt more hurt to my pride than embarrassed. “It’s my mistake. Thank you, but I’ll manage.” The man smiled more warmly. “Young man, we’ve all been in this kind of situation. Honestly, it’s just a few dollars. Just help someone else in need when you get the chance later.” His voice was so sincere that I couldn’t refuse anymore. I saw no pity in his eyes, only simple kindness between people. “Let me tell you a story,” he said. “My mum is fighting cancer at City Hospital,” his voice was calm but with a small, hard to-notice shake. “I always bring her fresh roses every day when I visit — they’re her favourite. But this morning, she got angry and refused to take my flowers, no matter what I said. She told me I should use the money to help people who really need it,” he paused and looked at me seriously. 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。 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
