One possible version: A Moment of Quiet: Respect in the Teachers’ Office Recently, a phenomenon has drawn my attention: some students are being quite noisy when entering or leaving the teachers’ office during breaks. Loud conversations, abrupt door movements, and bursts of laughter can often be heard. This lack of consideration disturbs teachers who are working, resting, or having important conversations. A peaceful environment is essential for them to prepare lessons or recharge. Moreover, it also harms our student demeanor (整体风貌). Therefore, I sincerely urge everyone to be more mindful. Please lower our voices, move quietly, and knock before entering. A more respectful campus starts with these small, thoughtful actions. 47.Two possible versions: After graduation, Clara held an art show successfully. The small downtown gallery was filled with her works, each canvas telling the story of her lonely but persistent struggle. To her surprise and joy, several paintings were sold on the opening day. Standing before the empty spaces on the wall, a wave of emotion washed over Clara. The recognition was sweet, but her heart ached for the one person whose opinion mattered most — her father. Clara decided it was time to show her father her achievement. With a photo of her sold paintings, she visited his home. Arthur opened the door, his stern expression softening as he saw her. He took the photo, his fingers tracing the images silently. “I just wanted you to be safe,” he finally said, voice thick with emotion. In that moment, Clara understood. His fear had always been a form of love. She stepped forward and hugged him, all the unspoken words melting away in the embrace. (162 words in total) After graduation, Clara held an art show successfully. It was a small but warm exhibition in a nice downtown gallery, filled with her paintings. Every brushstroke showed how hard she’d tried: the late nights she spent painting, and the hope that kept her going when galleries said no. Visitors stopped to look at her works, saying nice things about the “real feeling” in her pieces. By the end of the first day, three paintings had been sold, and a local art writer said her work was “true to herself”. Clara looked at the empty places on the walls, her heart feeling full. She knew there was one person she wanted to share this with. Clara decided it was time to show her father her achievement. She printed a photo of her sold paintings and drove to his house. Her hands were a little shaky as she knocked. Arthur opened the door, and his eyes softened when he saw her. He took the photo, staring at the paintings for a long while. “I’m sorry I didn’t see how much this means to you,” he said gently. Clara hugged him tightly, tears warm on her cheeks. Love, she realized, isn’t about forcing a path, but about supporting someone’s dream — just as her father had done, quietly and steadily, all along. (219 words in total) 答案详解 1. B 2. D 3. C 【导语】这是一篇应用文，介绍了从伦敦出发，途经克罗地亚、意大利、阿尔巴尼亚、希腊等地的十一晚豪华游轮旅行，包括具体行程、包含服务、住宿安排和价格优惠等内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格JUNE 2025部分“Sun 1; Dubrovnik, Croatia: Go to the port and board the 6☆Ocean Encore for your seven-night voyage (航行)(星期日；克罗地亚杜布罗夫尼克：前往港口，登上 6 星级的“Ocean Encore”号游轮，开始为期七天的旅程)”以及结合前一天(Sat 31)游客仍在 Dubrovnik, Croatia 自由活动，说明七晚的游轮行程从Dubrovnik启程。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据WHAT’S included部分“Return business class flights from London(从伦敦出发的商务舱航班)”可知，本次旅行提供往返商务舱机票服务。故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。题干中提到若夫妻于2025年3月30日预订V1舱(Veranda Suite)，每人售价为£4,799，而原价是£5,799，每人节省£1,000。又根据文末说明:“Book by 8 pm on 31st March 2025 to enjoy an extra £100 discount per suite(请于2025年3月31日下午8点前预订，即可享受每间套房额外100英镑的折扣优惠)”，即每个套房还能额外减£100。夫妻共两人，基础优惠节省£1,000×2=£2,000，再加上额外每套房减£100,总计节省£2,100。故选C 。 4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者去年九月一次偶然的观鸟之旅让他正式成为观鸟者，此后观鸟不仅增加了他的户外时间、让他更亲近自然，还让他领悟到生活的本质，重新认识了观鸟的意义。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It was the first time that I had gone somewhere merely to watch birds. Since this unique journey, I’ve seen 452 species, including 307 this year alone. (这是我第一次专门去某个地方观鸟。自从这次特别的旅行后，我已经见过452种鸟类，仅今年就有307种)”及第二段“I’ve cared about birds and other animals for my entire life, and I’ve written about them throughout my two decades as a science writer, but I mark the moment when I specifically chose to devote time and energy to them as the moment I became a birder. (我一生都在关心鸟类和其他动物，在我作为一名科学作家的二十年里，我一直在写关于它们的文章，但我把我特别选择为它们投入时间和精力的那一刻标记为我成为观鸟者的那一时刻)”可知，作者认为这次湿地之旅特别，是因为它让自己真正开启了观鸟者的身份。故选A。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段“While birding, I seem impervious to heat, cold, hunger and thirst. My senses focus only on the present, and my head becomes extremely untroubled (观鸟时，我似乎对冷热饥渴都impervious。我的感官只专注于当下，内心变得异常平静)”可知，观鸟时作者专注于当下，不受冷热饥渴的影响，因此“impervious”意为“抵抗的、不受影响的”。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“These recent years have taught me that I'm smaller when I'm not actively looking after myself, that I have value for my world and my community beyond ceaseless production, and that pursuits like birding that encourage joy, wonder and bond with places are not sidebars to a fulfilled life but the essence (这些年我明白了，当我不积极关爱自己时，我会变得渺小；除了无休止的工作产出，我对自己的世界和社区也有价值；而像观鸟这样能带来喜悦、惊奇并与周遭建立联结的追求，并非充实生活的点缀，而是其本质)”可知，作者领悟到能带来快乐的追求是生活的核心，即幸福是生活的核心。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Instead, for me, birding means absorbing myself in the present moment: my thoughts quiet, my senses heightened, and I respond to real, observable events in nature with focused awareness without being distracted by small, unimportant matters (相反，对我来说，观鸟意味着全身心投入当下：思绪沉静，感官敏锐，我以专注的意识回应自然界中真实可观察的事物，不会被琐碎小事分心)”可知，作者认为观鸟是对现实的全身心投入。故选A。 8. D 9. D 10. C 11. A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。本文主要探讨了饮食研究因研究方法局限和媒体报道偏见，而经常呈现矛盾结论，因此无需过度追求完美饮食。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“All claim to be based on the latest research and each claims to prove the last study wrong.(所有这些说法都声称是基于最新的研究成果，而每一种说法又都声称要证明前一种研究存在错误)”可知，媒体频繁报道最新的饮食研究，而新的研究总是与过往的研究相矛盾。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Misleading media coverage plays a role, but publication bias (偏见) is one major source: studies that show surprising results are more likely to get published. “What you see published in the nightly news is the end result of a system where everyone is encouraged to come up with a positive result,” says Vinay at Oregon Science University.(误导性的媒体报道起到了一定作用，但发表偏倚则是主要因素之一：那些得出惊人结果的研究更有可能被发表出来。俄勒冈科技大学的维纳说道：“在晚间新闻中所呈现的内容是这样一个系统所产生的最终结果，该系统鼓励每个人都得出积极的结果。”)”可知，巧克力竟然有助于减肥存在发表偏见。故选D。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“One way to get around this problem is to conduct large, randomized controlled trials, which involve randomly assigning participants to different groups to control variables. But these kinds of studies are difficult to do for foods, as few would risk eating habits on chance; fewer still sustain changes long enough to benefit. Instead, nutrition scientists usually observe what people eat by asking them to fill out food diaries, and then track the health of participants over a given period of time.(解决这一问题的一种方法是开展大规模的随机对照试验，这种试验会将参与者随机分配到不同的组别，以控制变量。但对于食物而言，这类研究很难进行，因为很少有人会为了偶然的机会而改变饮食习惯；更少有人能长期保持改变后的饮食习惯从而获得益处。因此，营养学家通常会通过让参与者填写饮食日记来观察他们的饮食情况，然后在一段时间内跟踪参与者的健康状况)”以及第四段“In these “observational” studies, people track their diets while going about their lives. Differences between subjects in what they do outside of mealtimes can make all the difference. People who eat what is seen as an unhealthy diet — with more fast food, for instance — might have unhealthy lifestyles in other ways, such as smoking. Consequently, dietary effects are hard to set apart.(在这些“观察性”研究中，研究对象在日常生活中会记录自己的饮食情况。在用餐时间之外的行为差异可能会导致结果大相径庭。那些饮食习惯被认为不健康（比如摄入较多的快餐）的人，可能在其他方面也有不良的生活习惯，比如吸烟。因此，饮食对健康的影响很难单独区分出来)”可知，第3段和第4段主要讨论了研究饮食影响所面临的主要问题。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“But it does suggest that within limits of common sense, one way of eating is about as good as another.(但这确实表明，在常识的合理范围内，不同的饮食方式在总体上是相当相似的，没有哪一种方式明显优于其他方式)”和“Within reason, trusting your stomach is mostly fine.(在合理范围内，相信自己的直觉通常是没问题的)”可知，作者建议理智地倾听身体的信号。故选D。 12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项关于煤炭利用的创新研究：将煤炭制成多孔碳化压缩粉末材料，并将其与天然棉纤维结合，应用于太阳能海水淡化技术，为解决淡水资源问题提供了新思路。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句"Capable of taking in sunlight, the black mineral adds to the list of substances in dark colors serving the purpose, which the team is on a long-standing hunt for. (这种黑色矿物能够吸收阳光，被添加到深色物质的清单中，这个团队长期以来一直在寻找服务于这一目的的深色物质)"可知，该团队长期以来一直在寻找可用于海水淡化的深色材料。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的"...the inside fibers helped water flow in and through the block from the bottom. (...内部的纤维帮助水从底部流入并流经整个模块)"可知，海水是通过内部的棉纤维进入CCP模块的。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中团队成员Marcella Bonifazi的话"CCP is abundant in nature and reasonable to use, besides being lightweight and highly changeable... (CCP在自然界储量丰富、使用合理，并且重量轻、可塑性强...)"可知，CCP具有高度可变的特性，即灵活可变。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，特别是开头"the team ... is using coal for a new economy"以及全文围绕煤炭如何被创新性地用于太阳能海水淡化技术展开，可知文章主要讲述煤炭在海水淡化技术中找到了新的应用。选项C概括了这一核心。故选C。 16. D 17. C 18. B 19. F 20.E 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章解释了注意力分散如同大脑“磨损”，并提出三种应对策略，最终鼓励人们从小处着手改善。 16. D。根据空格后文“Over time, it accumulates wear and tear that directly impacts processing.(随着时间的推移,它会积累直接影响信息处理的磨损。)”可知，空格处需要一个引入“大脑像物件一样会磨损”这一核心比喻的句子，以形象解释专注力衰退的原因。E选项“You can think of the brain like a computer that slows down with use.(你可以把大脑想象成像一台会随着使用变慢的电脑。)”中的“电脑变慢”与后文的“wearand tear(磨损)”直接对应。故D选项正确。 17. C。该段主旨为“培养规律的正念练习”。空格处位于提出方法之后，专家具体建议之前。空格后句“Andpracticing it has been shown to reshape the brain.(而且,练习它已被证明可以重塑大脑。)”中的“it”需要指代前文的核心概念。C选项“Mindfuiness is about focusing attention on the present moment.(正念是关于将注意力集中在当下。)”清晰地给出了“正念”的定义。故C选项正确。 18. B。空格处位于第三段开头,应为本段主旨句。空格后文“Such exercises are generally designed to improve yourattention.(这类练习通常旨在提升你的注意力。)”中的“Such exercises(这类练习)”表明空格处必须提出一种具体的“练习”类型。B选项“Engage in cognitive training games.(进行认知训练游戏。)”明确提出了“认知训练游戏”这一方法,是“Such exercises”的准确指代对象。故 B选项正确。 19. F。空格前句“When you exercise, you increase the availability of brain chemicals that promote new brainconnections and reduce stress.(当你运动时,你会增加促进新大脑连接和减轻压力的大脑化学物质的可用性。)”描述了运动的好处,并以“减少压力”结尾。空格后句“At the same time, you clear out injury-causing proteins.(同时,你清除了导致损伤的蛋白质。)”描述了睡眠的另一个好处。因此，空格处应描述睡眠的第一个好处，且句式与运动句并列。D选项“And when you sleep, you reduce harmful stress chemicals in the brain.(而且当你睡觉时,你会减少大脑中有害的化学物质。)”以And连接，与运动句形成“When you...，you...”的排比结构，内容上“减少压力激素”也与前文“减少压力”紧密关联，并与后文“同时清除蛋白质”构成睡眠两大益处的并列关系。故F选项正确。 20. E。空格处位于最后一段段中。前句“You have the power to shape your mental sharpness.(你有能力塑造你的思维敏锐度。)”是总起句。后句“Starting small ensures you won't feel overwhelmed.(从小处着手可以确保你不会感到不知所措。)”提出了“从小开始”的原则。因此，空格处应为一个具体的、符合“从小开始”原则的行动建议。G选项“You’ d better start by choosing one of these strategies to try this week.(你最好从选择这些策略中的一种在本周尝试开始。)”中的“one of these strategics”指代前文介绍的三种策略(正念、认知游戏、健康生活), “choosing one”呼应了后文的“Startingsmall”，构成了从“总述能力”到“具体行动建议”再到“解释原则与展望益处”的完整逻辑链。故E选项正确。 21.A 22. C 23. D 24. B 25. D 26.A 27. C 28. B 29. A 30. B 31.B 32. C 33. A 34. C 35. D 21题：作者开篇说"my life must have purpose, and I want to see success in everything I join in"，这直接体现了他的核心belief（信念），即人生必须要有目标。 22题：前文强调追求成功，因此"For every race, I aim to"后面自然接win（获胜），与首句的"see success"形成呼应。 23题：根据"Even when life was hard"的语境，作者坚持不妥协，用refusing to settle for less（拒绝退而求其次）体现其执着性格。 24题：韧带撕裂后，"The recovery was a real"应填入struggle（挣扎），后文"out of reach"进一步说明恢复的艰难。 25题："I wouldn't let the injury"后面接beat me（打败我），与上文的"didn't stop me"形成决心递进。 26题："that drive to win kept"选择pushing me（推动我），与前文"wouldn't let...beat me"构成动力延续。 27题：复出参赛时"My legs felt"应描述沉重感，heavy（沉重）与后文"pressure in my body"共同体现身体未恢复状态。 28题：感到不适后"I tried to"自然地想gather my strength（凝聚力量），这是运动员的本能反应。 29题：意识到身体极限后，达到预期时间变得impossible（不可能）。 30题：看着周围跑者时"felt a wave of"应是积极情绪，pride（自豪）与"having recovered from my injury"的理由直接对应。 31题：心态转变后"chose to"应当选择enjoy the moment（享受当下），这与后文"fun run"的定位一致。 32题：作者将这场competition（比赛）转变为趣味跑，与前文"instead of focusing on winning"形成对比。 33题：虽然心态改变但"still want to"显示仍想challenge myself（挑战自我），体现成长后的平衡。 34题：成长在于"no longer feel the need to prove anything"（不再觉得需要证明什么），这是从对外证明到对内认知的关键转变。 35题：最后说"gained more"应指内在收获，self-awareness（自我认知）与全文的心路历程主题完美契合。 36. stood 37. enthusiasm 38. without 39. leaving 40. when 41. impressive 42. was chosen 43. related 44. obviously 45. an 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了来自新疆的18岁青年Rozimemet Turghun凭借对电子维修的热爱，加入职业技能竞赛团队，经过刻苦训练在比赛中斩获铜牌，展现了职业技能教育带来的成长与机遇。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：代表新疆维吾尔自治区家乡队参赛的Rozimemet Turghun——这位父母以放牧为生的18岁少年，站在了第二届职业技能大赛4000余名选手的行列中。空处为谓语动词，描述过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时。故填stood。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：尽管他在移动机器人竞赛中没有获奖，但他的热情从未减退。his后需接名词作主语，enthusiastic的名词形式为enthusiasm，不可数。故填enthusiasm。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：即使没有指导，他也能修理灯具、收音机等电子设备。空处与后文he was able to repair electronic stuff like lamps and radios构成转折关系，此处表示“没有指导”，需用介词without。故填without。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：高中毕业后，他进入阿克苏职业技术学院学习。介词after后接动名词作宾语。故填leaving。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：机会出现在去年，当时机电工程系副主任赵鹏飞开始组织一支参加技能竞赛的队伍。空处引导定语从句，先行词为last year，在定语从句中作时间状语，应用关系副词when引导。故填when。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：Rozimemet Turghun令人印象深刻的能力引起了赵鹏飞的注意。空处修饰名词abilities需用形容词，impress的形容词形式为impressive。故填impressive。 【42题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：他被选中加入团队，并专注于与工业机器人应用相关的技术。主语He与choose之间为被动关系，且动作发生在过去，应用一般过去时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数。故填was chosen。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。be related to为固定短语，意为“与……相关”，空处需用形容词化的过去分词作后置定语，修饰名词technologies。故填related。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：对于几乎没有计算机经验的人来说，这次比赛显然是一个挑战。空处修饰整个句子，需用副词作状语，obvious的副词形式为obviously。故填obviously。 【45题详解】 考查冠词。句意：他们仅用2小时12分钟就完成一个移动机器人组装，这一项成就完全超出他最狂野的想象，震惊了在场所有人。achievement为可数名词，此处泛指“一项成就”，且以元音音素开头，需用不定冠词an。故填an。 读后续写题 全文围绕 “梦想与现实的冲突” 和 “沉默的父爱” 展开。Arthur深夜到访，发现了Clara的努力和困境，这为最终的和解埋下了唯一的、也是最重要的伏笔。 续写两段的核心任务分配如下： 第一段 (After graduation...)：展现成功与成长。重点描写画展本身，用细节（如画面内容、观众反应、售出作品）来证明Clara的选择并非空想，她克服了困难，获得了认可。这是对父亲“艺术家会挨饿”担忧的有力回应。 第二段 (Clara decided...)：实现情感和解与主题升华。重点描写父女相见，通过对话、动作和内心活动，让父亲看到女儿的坚韧与成功，也让女儿理解父亲严厉背后的深爱与恐惧。结局需温暖、积极，点明“爱是支持而非束缚”的主题。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度第一学期高二年级期末测试--英语 时长： 120 分钟 分值： 120 分（折算150分） 注意事项： 1. 答题前，请将姓名、考生号、考场、座位号用规定的笔写在答题卡指定的位置上，将条形码粘贴好。 2. 考生必须在答题卡上按规定作答；凡在答题卡以外的地方作答的，其答案一律无效。答题卡必须保持清洁，不能折叠。 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分 50 分） 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 A An eleven-night trip departing 30 May 2025 MAY 2025 Fri 30 Fly in Business Class from London to Dubrovnik, Croatia Upon arrival go to a 5☆hotel for your two-night stay Sat 31 Dubrovnik, Croatia Spend the day exploring at your leisure JUNE 2025 Sun 1 Dubrovnik, Croatia Go to the port and board the 6☆Ocean Encore for your seven-night voyage Mon 2-Sat 7 Kotor, Montenegro→Gallipoli, Italy→Sarandé, Albania→Zakinthos, Greece →Naflion, Greece Relax at sea Sun 8-Mon 9 Athens (from Piraeus), Greece Leave and go to a 5☆hotel for your two-night stay Spend the day exploring at your leisure Tue 10 Athens, Greece Go to the airport for your Business Class flight to London WHAT’S included FREE private UK driver service, up to 100 miles each way, for ALL bookings FREE two-night 5☆hotel stay in Dubrovnik, Croatia including breakfast SEVEN-NIGHT luxury voyage on board Ocean Encore — Spacious, all-suite (套房) accommodation with sweeping ocean views — Free fine wines, spirits, champagnes, beers and soft drinks throughout your voyage FREE two-night 5☆hotel stay in Athens, Greece including breakfast Return business class flights from London(regional flights may be available on request) SPECIAL OFFERS (per person) SUITE GRADE FULL PRICE (PP) NOW PRICE (PP) Veranda Suite (2 left) V1 £5,799 £4,799 Veranda Suite V4 £7,399 £6,399 Ocean welcomes you to this all-inclusive, luxury trip.

B Last September, I drove to a protected wetland near my home in Oakland, California. It was the first time that I had gone somewhere merely to watch birds. Since this unique journey, I’ve seen 452 species, including 307 this year alone. In some birding circles, people claim anyone who looks at birds is a birder. I’ve cared about birds and other animals for my entire life, and I’ve written about them throughout my two decades as a science writer, but I mark the moment when I specifically chose to devote time and energy to them as the moment I became a birder. Birding has significantly increased the time spent outdoors. It has motivated me to explore Oakland in ways I never would have. While birding, I seem impervious to heat, cold, hunger and thirst. My senses focus only on the present, and my head becomes extremely untroubled. I also feel a much deeper connection to the natural world, which I have long written about but always remained slightly distant from. These recent years have taught me that I’m smaller when I’m not actively looking after myself, that I have value for my world and my community beyond ceaseless production, and that pursuits like birding that encourage joy, wonder and bond with places are not sidebars to a fulfilled life but the essence. It’s easy to perceive birding as something you do when you’re not working, not being productive, and even an escape from reality. Instead, for me, birding means absorbing myself in the present moment: my thoughts quiet, my senses heightened, and I respond to real, observable events in nature with focused awareness without being distracted by small, unimportant matters. I don’t need to know who the main characters are on social media and what everyone is commenting on them, when I can instead spend an hour trying to locate a rare bird. 4. Why did the author think the journey to the wetland special? A. He made his true start as a birder. B. He protected bird species there. C. He fell in love with birding again. D. He completed his writing during it. 5. What does the underlined word “impervious” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Attentive. B. Subject. C. Resistant. D. Sensitive. 6. What lesson does the author probably learn? A. Self-care can help fuel self-worth. B. Happiness serves as the core of life. C. Outdoor pursuits are a must-have. D. Productivity defines personal value. 7. How does the author view birding according to the last paragraph? A. A complete engagement with reality. B. A temporary escape from busy life. C. A training in focus and observation. D. A substitute for online activities. C Huge piles of research on diet are published annually. The most shocking of these get reported in the media. All claim to be based on the latest research and each claims to prove the last study wrong. Do scientists really not know what’s good for us, or is the news report to blame for the confusion? Misleading media coverage plays a role, but publication bias is one major source: studies that show surprising results are more likely to get published. “What you see published in the nightly news is the end result of a system where everyone is encouraged to come up with a positive result,” says Vinay at Oregon Science University. One way to get around this problem is to conduct large, randomized (随机的) controlled trials, which involve randomly assigning participants to different groups to control variables. But these kinds of studies are difficult to do for foods, as few would risk eating habits on chance; fewer still maintain changes long enough to benefit. Instead, nutrition scientists usually observe what people eat by asking them to fill out food diaries, and then track the health of participants over a given period of time. In these “observational” studies, people track their diets while going about their lives. Differences between subjects in what they do outside of mealtimes can make all the difference. People who eat what is seen as an unhealthy diet — with more fast food, for instance — might have unhealthy lifestyles in other ways, such as smoking. Consequently, dietary effects are hard to set apart. Because of these difficulties, even today’s most recommended dietary advice lacks good quality evidence. This doesn’t mean we can eat as much cake as we like. But it does suggest that within limits of common sense, one way of eating is about as good as another. While admittedly simple advice, it removes the pressure to constantly run after the latest amazing diet or fear seemingly harmful foods. Within reason, trusting your stomach is mostly fine. 8. What phenomenon is presented in paragraph 1? A. Scientists fail to figure out truth. B. News spreads confusion on purpose. C. Research on diet astonishes people. D. Media reports conflicting diet studies. 9. Which of the following news items suggests publication bias? A. Calorie restriction helps to slow aging. B. Whole grain diet improves heart health. C. Effects of zero fat diet require further tests. D. Chocolate unexpectedly aids weight loss. 10. What does the author think of his life in Guizhou? A. The reliability of self-reported diet data. B. How long-term diet tracking improves health. C. The main problems in studying dietary effects. D. How lifestyle factors affect diet research results. 11. What is the author’s suggestion for food choice? A. Follow body signals sensibly. B. Consume varieties of foods. C. Count on the latest dietary advice. D. Avoid potentially unhealthy foods. D The burning of coal for energy may be declining , but a team of King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) is using coal for a new economy. The project is led by Associate Professor Andrea Fratalocchi. While reading about challenges of ending the use of coal in power generation, Fratalocchi was struck by a novel possible use for coal. “Why don’t we use coal for seawater desalination (脱盐) ?” Fratalocchi recalls, still excited. Capable of taking in sunlight, the black mineral adds to the list of dark-colored substances serving the purpose, which the team is on a long-standing hunt for. Fratalocchi and his team began to explore the use of a material called carbonized compressed powder (压缩粉末) , also CCP, which is created by breaking coal into powder, and then pressing that powder back into a solid that has more tiny holes—it can also be shaped as needed. The team mixed CCP with natural cotton fibers, producing a block which was then placed within a seawater-containing container, with its bottom touching water surface. While sunlight heated the black surface of the block, the inside fibers drew water upward. When that liquid water reached the hot surface, it turned into steam which rose and condensed (冷凝) on the inside of a specially shaped cover. That condensation then flew down the cover and was collected as fresh, drinkable water. The seawater’s salt content remained behind within the CCP. A simple wash was enough to remove most of it, so the material could be reused multiple times. KAUST has partnered with the Dutch start-up PFRA Complexity to promote the technology. The material will see its first use in a pilot plant in Brazil. “CCP is abundant in nature and reasonable to use, besides being lightweight and highly changeable,” says team member Marcella Bonifazi. “The device’s desalination rate per unit of raw material is two to three times higher than that of any other solar desalination system, but it produces fresh water at around one-third the expense of current state-of-the-art technologies.” 12. What has Fratalocchi’s team been seeking for? A. Fibers functioning well with CCP. B. Dark-colored materials for desalination. C.Green ways to desalinate seawater. D. New industrial applications of coal. 13. How did the seawater get into the CCP block? A. Through CCP. B. Through cotton fibers. C. Through the tiny holes. D. Through a special cover. 14. Which feature does CCP have? A. Being eco-friendly. B. Being delicate. C. Being costly. D. Being flexible. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Drinkable water will be got from the sea. B. CCP is expected to be in real-life use soon. C. Coal finds new use in desalination technology. D. Scientists have made a breakthrough in desalination. 第二节（共 5 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。 You’re trying to concentrate, but your mind is wandering or you’re easily distracted. What happened to the clear, strong focus focus you once enjoyed? 16 Over time, it gets worn out, which directly impacts processing. The good news is, this struggle to stay focused can be managed with the following approaches. Cultivate (培养) a disciplined mindfulness practice. 17 And practicing it has been shown to reshape the brain. Kim Willment, a neuropsychologist from Brigham and Women’s Hospital, recommends sitting still for a few minutes each day, closing your eyes, and focusing on your breathing as well as the sounds and sensations around you. 18 Such exercises are generally designed to improve your attention. However, evidence for their effectiveness has been mixed. “The goal isn’t to master them, but to enhance everyday cognitive (认知的) skills.” Willment says. “By gradually pushing sustained attention to higher levels, you can strengthen this ability, which may then carry over into daily life.” Focus on a healthy lifestyle. This approach centers on two aspects: physical activity and rest. There is a direct link between exercise and cognitive ability, especially attention. When you exercise, you increase the availability of brain chemicals that promote new brain connections and reduce stress. 19 At the same time, you clear out injury- causing proteins (蛋白质) . You have the power to shape your mental sharpness. 20 Starting small ensures you won't feel stressed. Doing it regularly makes your mind stronger over time. Trust me. Your future focus will thank you for the investment today. A. Seek expert guidance and support. B. Engage in cognitive training games. C. Mindfulness is about focusing attention on the present moment. D. You can think of the brain like a computer that slows down with use. E. You'd better start by choosing one of these strategies to try this week. F. And when you sleep, you reduce harmful stress chemicals in the brain. G. However, mindfulness has regained enormous popularity in recent years. 第二部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。 My interest in marathon reflects my 21 — my life must have purpose, and I want success in all I do.

You think painting can pay for food and rent? It’s just a hobby, not a real job!” Arthur Hale was sad and angry — he’d started his building business from nothing, and all he wanted was a stable (稳定的) life for his daughter. Their home was filled with useful things: full bookshelves, a strong dining table, and no sign of Clara’s messy paints or half-done paintings. Clara’s heart hurt. “It’s not just a dream, Dad. Painting is what I’m meant to do! I got into the Royal College of Art — this is my big chance!” Since she’d said no to the law job and accepted the art school offer, they’d hardly spoken nicely to each other. Arthur grew up poor, working two part-time jobs to finish trade school; he couldn’t understand why his daughter would choose such an unsure path. “Artists often go hungry, Clara,” he’d say again and again, his voice getting harder. “I won’t watch you struggle like I did.” That night, Clara packed her sketchbooks and paints and moved into a small room near the art school. Although she painted late every night, her hands always covered with paints, she faced one “no” from galleries after another. Money was tight — she often skipped lunch to buy more canvas and paints. But what she didn’t know was that Arthur had been watching. He’d drive by her building after work, making sure her window light was on. One evening, he even left a bag of fresh fruit and her favorite apple pie outside her door. But as time flew, neither of them decided to say sorry first. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 After graduation, Clara held an art show successfully. __________________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Clara decided it was time to show her father her achievement.___________________________ _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第 1 页 共 10 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
