The bus arrives, and you settle into your seat, eager for the journey ahead. But as the bus starts moving, the hot sun shines in, ruining your mood.The thought stays in your mind: If only I’d chosen the other side of the bus. Now, what if you could predict which side of the bus would be shaded during your trip? Veyil may be a simple solution to the everyday problem. Veyil, an app, is designed for those who rely on public transport. It mainly helps users identify which side of the bus will stay cooler and shaded during the journey. Using the Veyil app is simple — just input (输入) your starting point, destination, travel time and the day. The app then analyses your route using GPS, accurately calculating sunlight directions to determine the sunniest and shadiest spots. It provides real-time guidance on whether to sit on the left or right side of the bus for comfort. What sets Veyil apart is its philosophy (哲学) — the belief that small, practical solutions can address significant inconveniences.Its creators believe in empowering users with tools that simplify daily experiences, one journey at a time. This philosophy comes to life through moving stories from users. “Once we got a message from a lady thanking us for the app. She shared that because of Veyil, her new baby is able to sleep well during bus journeys,” says Hadi, one of Veyil’s creators. The idea of the app started in 2019 when creators decided to use technology to solve common travel issues. In May 2025, the complete version of the app was released. Accessible as both an app and a website, Veyil ensures easy use for everyone. As it gains popularity, it’s set to change how people think about public transport. With plans to work with weather updates and further shade-tracking, the app serves as a great example of how technology can bring comfort to life. 1．What’s the feature of Veyil? A．It cures users of travel sickness. B．It uses GPS to locate users’ position. C．It guides users to take comfortable seats. D．It helps users find the destination easily. 2．What can we infer from Hadi’s words in the third paragraph? A．Users are satisfied with Veyil. B．Veyil targets young users. C．Babies tend to sleep on public transport. D．Hadi was moved to tears by the stories of Veyil. 3．What was the inspiration for creating the Veyil app? A．The need to improve the accuracy of public transport schedules. B．The goal of making public transport more environmentally friendly. C．The idea of providing more entertainment options for bus passengers during their journey. D．The desire to use technology to solve common travel issues related to sun exposure on buses. 4．What’s the best title of the text? A．Can Passengers Choose Cooler Seats? B．Will Transport System Be Updated? C．Will Public Transport Be Replaced? D．Can Weather Be Predicted Better? Passage2阅读理解 （2026·安徽省华师联盟质量检测）Sixteen rescued seal pups, fitted with GPS trackers, have been spotted swimming in France and Ireland after being released from the British coast. The Cornish Seal Sanctuary (避难所) and the University of Exeter tracked their movements this winter, discovering that the young seals travelled long distances in international waters. The first pup, named Maggot, surprised researchers by swimming over 150 miles to Brittany. Another pup, Selkie, rescued in January, became the first to cross into France, swimming up the River Somme before settling in the eastern English Channel. Whirligig, rescued from Weymouth, returned to local waters and was later seen resting in Brixham Harbour. Dung beetle, released in South Cornwall, swam to Ireland and is still exploring near Wexford. The data helps researchers understand how rescued seals adapt to the wild. Anne Van Domberg, a senior animal care specialist, said, “For the first time, we see where they go, how fast they settle, and where they find food. This gives us valuable information on their success after release.” Two other seals, JP and Bug, were also seen thriving (茁壮成长) along the Cornish coast. The sanctuary treated over 30 pups this winter, many needing medical care. Anne added, “We rescue seals with the aim of releasing strong, healthy animals back into the wild; but thanks to this technology, we’re finally able to follow their stories beyond the shoreline. It’s amazing to see them thriving, exploring, and in some cases, travelling hundreds of miles. It’s real proof that our work matters. It’s so exciting to see where they head off to and heartwarming to know that they are doing so well out there in the wild.” The sanctuary also reminded the public to keep a safe distance of at least 100 metres from wild seals to avoid disturbing them. 5．What was the main finding about the rescued seal pups? A．They mostly stayed near the British coast. B．They travelled far in different countries’ waters. C．They liked to stay in one place. D．They were afraid of deep water. 6．What can be known about Selkie? A．It revisited its rescue location after release. B．It undertook the longest migration of all pups. C．It was the pioneer to enter France. D．It preferred quiet island environments. 7．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．How seals find food in the wild. B．Seals’ success after release. C．Rescued seals’ living conditions. D．Data’s value for seal research. 8．What does Anne think of their work? A．Worthless. B．Rewarding. C．Perfect. D．Impractical. Passage 3 阅读七选五 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 （2026·福建省全国名校联盟期中）In my backpack, there is always a waterproof paper map. 1 Instead, it is my main tool for navigating (导航). I have tried digital devices and set precise points on my GPS watch. But every time I use it, I feel a strange distance. 2 It reduces the land into simple lines and dots, while the real wilderness is full of details and textures (肌理). Unfolding a paper map feels more engaging. I trace the lines with my fingers and match the symbols to the rivers I see in the distance. I am not being guided passively. I am actively building my own understanding of the land. 3 A screen tells you: “You are here and follow this line.” But a map asks you: “Where are you? What surrounds you? How will you move through this place?” When I stare at a blinking dot on a screen, I seem to forget the sunlight, the wind, and the sounds of the forest. But with a paper map, I watch, think, and most importantly, engage fully with the environment. A paper map turns every step into a conversation with nature. 4 I remember once getting lost on a mountain path. I stopped, spread out my map, and tried to match what I saw around me with the details on the map. Slowly, the landmarks began to line up, and the landscape started to make sense again. Of course, I value safety. My GPS watch is always with me. I reserve it for emergency, but the paper map gives me something more: the memory of finding my way. 5 . So next time you go into the wild, bring a paper map. Let your eyes, hands, and mind explore, get lost, and discover the land on your own terms. A．It is not just a silent backup. B．It is like reading an over-simplified world. C．They never run out of battery, which is a relief. D．Even losing my way enhances this connection. E．I sometimes wonder what it really means to navigate. F．I learn to trust my own judgement rather than the map. G．And I will always appreciate the patience and self-trust it builds. Passage 4 完形填空 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。 To celebrate turning 50, my friend and I decided to run a marathon, aiming to break 4 hours. It’s not a time that would especially 1 any competitive runner, but it was our goal and a nice round number. Glancing at my running 2 repeatedly, I knew we had it in the bag. We just needed to 3 our current pace. We were moving forward effortlessly. But when I crossed the finish line, the official time was 4:04:04. According to my watch, I had 4 27.13 miles — nearly a mile beyond the standard 26.2. My friend’s watch read 27.39. Our tale is far from 5 . I’ve heard the same story from other runners: Your watch tells you one thing, reality tells you another. It was a real blow. There were three possible reasons. First, the course 6 might be inaccurate. Second, my GPS watch 7 me. Finally, I ran a highly 8 race, making lots of unnecessary zigzags (之字形). The race director 9 the course, “We totally focus on getting the exact measurement, not 2 inches off.” Then I 10 the watch company and the project manager 11 the second assumption: Things like GPS drift (偏差) can also cause your activity to report more or less distance than you 12 traveled. So, what can runners do on race day? Mark Carroll, a two-time Olympian, said, “Don’t let your watch take away from the 13 of the event.” Maybe if I can get prepared for another 26.2 miles, I’ll try a totally different approach: Forget my watch, 14 zigzagging to high-five the crowd, and just run for the sake of running. After all, the 15 of a marathon is just doing it. 1．A．influence B．touch C．move D．impress 2．A．shoes B．shorts C．watch D．pack 3．A．record B．adjust C．quicken D．maintain 4．A．paved B．covered C．measured D．stretched 5．A．unique B．aimless C．complete D．heartbreaking 6．A．route B．layout C．length D．surface 7．A．failed B．reminded C．informed D．warned 8．A．intense B．demanding C．inefficient D．stressful 9．A．defended B．located C．covered D．doubted 10．A．looked forward to B．reached out to C．got back to D．lived up to 11．A．dismissed B．conveyed C．confirmed D．rejected 12．A．regularly B．actually C．freely D．gradually 13．A．stress B．joy C．hope D．determination 14．A．avoid B．admit C．cancel D．embrace 15．A．accomplishment B．possibility C．transformation D．harmony Passage 5 语法填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In our modern age, we do not think much about how our technology works.

But as the bus starts moving, the hot sun shines in, ruining your mood.The thought stays in your mind: If only I’d chosen the other side of the bus. Now, what if you could predict which side of the bus would be shaded during your trip? Veyil may be a simple solution to the everyday problem. Veyil, an app, is designed for those who rely on public transport. It mainly helps users identify which side of the bus will stay cooler and shaded during the journey. Using the Veyil app is simple — just input (输入) your starting point, destination, travel time and the day. The app then analyses your route using GPS, accurately calculating sunlight directions to determine the sunniest and shadiest spots. It provides real-time guidance on whether to sit on the left or right side of the bus for comfort. What sets Veyil apart is its philosophy (哲学) — the belief that small, practical solutions can address significant inconveniences.Its creators believe in empowering users with tools that simplify daily experiences, one journey at a time. This philosophy comes to life through moving stories from users. “Once we got a message from a lady thanking us for the app. She shared that because of Veyil, her new baby is able to sleep well during bus journeys,” says Hadi, one of Veyil’s creators. The idea of the app started in 2019 when creators decided to use technology to solve common travel issues. In May 2025, the complete version of the app was released. Accessible as both an app and a website, Veyil ensures easy use for everyone. As it gains popularity, it’s set to change how people think about public transport.

The Cornish Seal Sanctuary (避难所) and the University of Exeter tracked their movements this winter, discovering that the young seals travelled long distances in international waters. The first pup, named Maggot, surprised researchers by swimming over 150 miles to Brittany. Another pup, Selkie, rescued in January, became the first to cross into France, swimming up the River Somme before settling in the eastern English Channel. Whirligig, rescued from Weymouth, returned to local waters and was later seen resting in Brixham Harbour. Dung beetle, released in South Cornwall, swam to Ireland and is still exploring near Wexford. The data helps researchers understand how rescued seals adapt to the wild. Anne Van Domberg, a senior animal care specialist, said, “For the first time, we see where they go, how fast they settle, and where they find food. This gives us valuable information on their success after release.” Two other seals, JP and Bug, were also seen thriving (茁壮成长) along the Cornish coast. The sanctuary treated over 30 pups this winter, many needing medical care. Anne added, “We rescue seals with the aim of releasing strong, healthy animals back into the wild; but thanks to this technology, we’re finally able to follow their stories beyond the shoreline. It’s amazing to see them thriving, exploring, and in some cases, travelling hundreds of miles. It’s real proof that our work matters. It’s so exciting to see where they head off to and heartwarming to know that they are doing so well out there in the wild.” The sanctuary also reminded the public to keep a safe distance of at least 100 metres from wild seals to avoid disturbing them. 5．What was the main finding about the rescued seal pups? A．They mostly stayed near the British coast. B．They travelled far in different countries’ waters. C．They liked to stay in one place. D．They were afraid of deep water. 6．What can be known about Selkie? A．It revisited its rescue location after release. B．It undertook the longest migration of all pups. C．It was the pioneer to enter France. D．It preferred quiet island environments. 7．What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A．How seals find food in the wild. B．Seals’ success after release. C．Rescued seals’ living conditions. D．Data’s value for seal research. 8．What does Anne think of their work? A．Worthless. B．Rewarding. C．Perfect. D．Impractical. 【答案】5．B 6．C 7．D 8．B 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。讲述了英国康沃尔海豹庇护所与埃克塞特大学合作，通过GPS追踪器监测了16只康复海豹幼崽的放归情况，发现它们从英国海岸游至法国、爱尔兰等地，最远达150英里。研究数据为海豹康复后的行为研究提供了宝贵信息，证实康复工作成效显著。 5．细节理解题。根据第一段“The Cornish Seal Sanctuary and the University of Exeter tracked their movements this winter, discovering that the young seals travelled long distances in international waters.(康沃尔海豹庇护所和埃克塞特大学今年冬天追踪了它们的活动，发现这些幼海豹在国际水域中游了很长的距离。)”可知，被救的幼海豹在不同国家的水域中游了很远。故选B。 6．细节理解题。根据第二段“Another pup, Selkie, rescued in January, became the first to cross into France.(另一只幼海豹Selkie于1月份获救，成为第一只进入法国的幼海豹。)”可知，Selkie是第一个进入法国的幼海豹。故选C。 7．主旨大意题。根据第三段“The data helps researchers understand how rescued seals adapt to the wild.(这些数据有助于研究人员了解被救海豹如何适应野外生活。)”和“This gives us valuable information on their success after release.(这为我们提供了关于它们被释放后成功与否的宝贵信息。)”可知，第三段主要讲了数据对海豹研究的价值。故选D。 8．推理判断题。根据第四段“It’s amazing to see them thriving, exploring, and in some cases, travelling hundreds of miles. It’s real proof that our work matters. It’s so exciting to see where they head off to and heartwarming to know that they are doing so well out there in the wild.(看到它们茁壮成长、探索，有时甚至游数百英里，真是令人惊叹。这是我们工作很重要的真实证明。看到它们要去哪里真是令人兴奋，知道它们在野外过得这么好真是令人欣慰。)”可知，安妮认为他们的工作是值得的。故选B。 Passage 3 阅读七选五 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 （2026·福建省全国名校联盟期中）In my backpack, there is always a waterproof paper map. 1 Instead, it is my main tool for navigating (导航). I have tried digital devices and set precise points on my GPS watch. But every time I use it, I feel a strange distance. 2 It reduces the land into simple lines and dots, while the real wilderness is full of details and textures (肌理). Unfolding a paper map feels more engaging. I trace the lines with my fingers and match the symbols to the rivers I see in the distance. I am not being guided passively. I am actively building my own understanding of the land. 3 A screen tells you: “You are here and follow this line.” But a map asks you: “Where are you? What surrounds you? How will you move through this place?” When I stare at a blinking dot on a screen, I seem to forget the sunlight, the wind, and the sounds of the forest. But with a paper map, I watch, think, and most importantly, engage fully with the environment. A paper map turns every step into a conversation with nature. 4 I remember once getting lost on a mountain path. I stopped, spread out my map, and tried to match what I saw around me with the details on the map. Slowly, the landmarks began to line up, and the landscape started to make sense again. Of course, I value safety. My GPS watch is always with me. I reserve it for emergency, but the paper map gives me something more: the memory of finding my way. 5 . So next time you go into the wild, bring a paper map. Let your eyes, hands, and mind explore, get lost, and discover the land on your own terms. A．It is not just a silent backup. B．It is like reading an over-simplified world. C．They never run out of battery, which is a relief. D．Even losing my way enhances this connection. E．I sometimes wonder what it really means to navigate. F．I learn to trust my own judgement rather than the map. G．And I will always appreciate the patience and self-trust it builds. 【答案】1．A 2．B 3．E 4．D 5．G 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍作者在野外出行时偏爱使用纸质地图导航，对比了其与电子导航的差异，强调纸质地图带来的沉浸式体验与自我成长。 1．根据上文“In my backpack, there is always a waterproof paper map. (我的背包里总有一张防水纸质地图。)”以及下文“Instead, it is my main tool for navigating (导航). (相反，它是我导航的主要工具。)”可知，此空应否定纸质地图的次要属性，A选项“It is not just a silent backup. (它不仅仅是一个无声的备用工具。)”中的“not just”与下文“instead”形成逻辑呼应，既否定了“备用”的次要定位，又引出“主要导航工具”的核心功能，符合语境。故选A项。 2．根据上文“But every time I use it, I feel a strange distance. (但每次使用它时，我都感到一种奇怪的距离感。)”以及下文“It reduces the land into simple lines and dots, while the real wilderness is full of details and textures (肌理). (它将土地简化为简单的线条和点，而真正的荒野充满了细节和肌理。)”可知，此空应具体解释电子导航带来距离感的原因，B选项“It is like reading an over-simplified world. (这就像阅读一个过度简化的世界。)”中的“over-simplified”与下文“reduces the land into simple lines and dots”表意一致，准确衔接了电子导航的特点与带来的距离感，符合语境。故选B项。 3．根据下文“A screen tells you: “You are here and follow this line.” But a map asks you: “Where are you? What surrounds you? How will you move through this place?” (屏幕会告诉你：“你在这里，沿着这条线走。”但地图会问你：“你在哪里？你周围有什么？你将如何穿越这个地方？”)”可知，此空应引发对“导航本质”的思考，E选项“I sometimes wonder what it really means to navigate. (我有时会想，导航的真正意义是什么？)”以设问方式引出下文对电子导航与纸质地图导航逻辑的对比，符合语境。故选E项。 4．根据上文“A paper map turns every step into a conversation with nature. (纸质地图让每一步都成为与自然的对话。)”以及下文“I remember once getting lost on a mountain path. I stopped, spread out my map, and tried to match what I saw around me with the details on the map. (我记得有一次在山路上迷路了。我停下来，摊开地图，试图将周围看到的景象与地图上的细节对应起来。)”可知，此空应衔接“与自然对话”和“迷路”的体验，D选项“Even losing my way enhances this connection. (即使迷路也会加强这种联系。)”中的“this connection”指代上文“与自然的对话”，且下文“迷路后借助地图找路”的例子正是对“增强联系”的具体印证，符合语境。故选D项。 5．根据上文“I reserve it for emergency, but the paper map gives me something more: the memory of finding my way. (我把它留作应急，但纸质地图给了我更多东西：找到路的记忆。)”可知，此空应进一步说明纸质地图带来的额外收获，G选项“And I will always appreciate the patience and self-trust it builds. (而且我会一直感激它所培养的耐心和自信。)”中的“it”指代纸质地图，“patience and self-trust”是对上文“something more”的具体阐释，承接了纸质地图的深层价值，符合语境。故选G项。 Passage 4 完形填空 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。 To celebrate turning 50, my friend and I decided to run a marathon, aiming to break 4 hours. It’s not a time that would especially 1 any competitive runner, but it was our goal and a nice round number. Glancing at my running 2 repeatedly, I knew we had it in the bag. We just needed to 3 our current pace. We were moving forward effortlessly. But when I crossed the finish line, the official time was 4:04:04. According to my watch, I had 4 27.13 miles — nearly a mile beyond the standard 26.2. My friend’s watch read 27.39. Our tale is far from 5 . I’ve heard the same story from other runners: Your watch tells you one thing, reality tells you another. It was a real blow. There were three possible reasons. First, the course 6 might be inaccurate. Second, my GPS watch 7 me. Finally, I ran a highly 8 race, making lots of unnecessary zigzags (之字形). The race director 9 the course, “We totally focus on getting the exact measurement, not 2 inches off.” Then I 10 the watch company and the project manager 11 the second assumption: Things like GPS drift (偏差) can also cause your activity to report more or less distance than you 12 traveled. So, what can runners do on race day? Mark Carroll, a two-time Olympian, said, “Don’t let your watch take away from the 13 of the event.” Maybe if I can get prepared for another 26.2 miles, I’ll try a totally different approach: Forget my watch, 14 zigzagging to high-five the crowd, and just run for the sake of running. After all, the 15 of a marathon is just doing it. 1．A．influence B．touch C．move D．impress 2．A．shoes B．shorts C．watch D．pack 3．A．record B．adjust C．quicken D．maintain 4．A．paved B．covered C．measured D．stretched 5．A．unique B．aimless C．complete D．heartbreaking 6．A．route B．layout C．length D．surface 7．A．failed B．reminded C．informed D．warned 8．A．intense B．demanding C．inefficient D．stressful 9．A．defended B．located C．covered D．doubted 10．A．looked forward to B．reached out to C．got back to D．lived up to 11．A．dismissed B．conveyed C．confirmed D．rejected 12．A．regularly B．actually C．freely D．gradually 13．A．stress B．joy C．hope D．determination 14．A．avoid B．admit C．cancel D．embrace 15．A．accomplishment B．possibility C．transformation D．harmony 【答案】 1．D 2．C 3．D 4．B 5．A 6．C 7．A 8．C 9．A 10．B 11．C 12．B 13．B 14．D 15．A 【解析】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者为庆祝50岁和朋友跑马拉松，因手表与官方时间差异未达目标，探究原因后领悟马拉松核心意义的故事。 1．考查动词词义辨析。句意：这个时间（4小时）并不会特别给任何竞技型跑者留下深刻印象，但它是我们的目标，也是一个不错的整数。A. influence影响；B. touch触摸，打动；C. move移动，打动；D. impress给……留下深刻印象。根据下文“competitive runner”（竞技型跑者）可知，4小时的马拉松成绩对专业跑者而言并不突出，难以“留下深刻印象”，符合语境。故选D项。 2．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我反复瞥着我的跑步手表，知道我们胜券在握。A. shoes鞋子；B. shorts短裤；C. watch手表；D. pack背包。后文多次提到“my watch”“friend’s watch”，且跑步时需通过手表看时间、配速，“running watch”（跑步手表）符合场景，前后文形成呼应。故选C项。 3．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我们只需要保持当前的配速就行。A. record记录；B. adjust调整；C. quicken加快；D. maintain保持。根据上文文“knew we had it in the bag”（胜券在握）可知，当前配速已能满足目标，无需调整或加快，只需“保持”，“maintain”符合逻辑。故选D项。 4．考查动词词义辨析。句意：根据我的手表，我跑了27.13英里——比标准的26.2英里将近多了1英里。A. paved铺设；B. covered覆盖，行走（一段路程）；C. measured测量；D. stretched伸展。根据下文“27.13 miles”可知，“cover+距离”是固定搭配，意为“行走（某段距离）”，符合“手表显示跑了27.13英里”的语境。故选B项。 5．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我们的经历绝非个例。A. unique独特的；B. aimless漫无目的的；C. complete完整的；D. heartbreaking令人心碎的。根据下文“I’ve heard the same story from other runners”可知，作者的经历并不“独特”，“unique”符合语境。故选A项。 6．考查名词词义辨析。句意：首先，赛道长度可能不准确。A. route路线；B. layout布局；C. length长度；D. surface表面。上文提到手表显示的距离比标准马拉松距离长，推测原因时，“赛道长度”不准确是可能因素之一，“length”符合“距离差异”的逻辑。故选C项。 7．考查动词词义辨析。句意：其次，我的GPS手表出了问题。A. failed使失望，未能达到预期；B. reminded提醒；C. informed通知；D. warned警告。根据上文“be inaccurate”可知，这里在寻找不准确的原因，手表“未能正常工作”是可能的原因之一，“failed”在此处表示“出故障、失灵”，符合语境。故选A项。 8．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：最后，我跑的路线效率很低，绕了很多不必要的之字形。A. intense紧张的，强烈的；B. demanding要求高的；C. inefficient效率低的；D. stressful有压力的。根据下文“making lots of unnecessary zigzags”可知，会导致实际跑的距离变长，属于“效率低”的跑法，“inefficient”符合语境。故选C项。 9．考查动词词义辨析。句意：赛事总监为赛道辩护道：“我们完全专注于精确测量，误差不会超过2英寸。”A. defended辩护，维护；B. located定位；C. covered覆盖；D. doubted怀疑。作者推测赛道长度不准确。根据下文“We totally focus on getting the exact measurement, not 2 inches off.””可知，赛事总监则强调测量精确，是在“为赛道辩护”，“defended”符合语境。故选A项。 10．考查动词短语辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. looked forward to期待；B. reached out to联系；C. got back to回复；D. lived up to达到。根据下文“the watch company”可知，要确认手表是否出问题，需“联系”手表公司，“reached out to”符合“主动沟通”的逻辑。故选B项。 11．考查动词词义辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. dismissed驳回；B. conveyed传达；C. confirmed证实；D. rejected拒绝。根据下文“Things like GPS drift (偏差) can also cause your activity to report more or less distance than you...traveled.”提到GPS偏差会导致距离记录不准，这与作者“手表出问题”的推测一致，即项目经理“证实”了该推测，“confirmed”符合语境。故选C项。 12．考查副词词义辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. regularly定期地；B. actually实际上；C. freely自由地；D. gradually逐渐地。根据下文“traveled.”可知，手表记录的距离是“显示值”，与“实际”跑的距离形成对比，“actually”符合“显示与实际差异”的语境。故选B项。 13．考查名词词义辨析。句意：两届奥运会选手马克·卡罗尔说：“别让手表夺走赛事的乐趣。”A. stress压力；B. joy乐趣；C. hope希望；D. determination决心。作者因手表与官方时间差异感到失落，马克·卡罗尔建议不要让手表影响对赛事的体验，即保留赛事的“乐趣”，“joy”符合积极引导的语境。故选B项。 14．考查动词词义辨析。句意：也许如果我再准备跑一次26.2英里，我会尝试一种完全不同的方法：忘记手表，欣然接受绕路与观众击掌，只为跑步而跑步。A. avoid避免；B. admit承认；C. cancel取消；D. embrace欣然接受。根据上文“Finally, I ran a highly...race, making lots of unnecessary zigzags (之字形).”可知，前文提到“绕之字形”是效率低的跑法，此处则建议“为跑步而跑步”，应“欣然接受”与观众互动的绕路行为，“embrace”符合“转变心态、享受过程”的语境。故选D项。 15．考查名词词义辨析。句意：毕竟，马拉松的成就在于参与本身。A. accomplishment成就；B. possibility可能性；C. transformation转变；D. harmony和谐。根据下文“doing it.”可知，作者最终领悟，马拉松的意义不在于追求特定时间或精准距离，而在于“完成它、参与它”，这本身就是一种“成就”，“accomplishment”符合语境。故选A项。 Passage 5 语法填空 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In our modern age, we do not think much about how our technology works. We are so used to 1 (tap) on our phone screen to get a map of our location. It is all thanks 2 the satellites in space that help our phones calculate our position. Depending on 3 you are around the world, your phone may be receiving data from different systems. In Europe, people have the Galileo system. In Russia, they have GLOASS. In the USA, people use GPS. China, meanwhile, has the BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS). The BDS in operation today is more advanced than the first version of the system, which 4 (send) into space in 2000. When it is completed, there will be several dozens of BDS satellites. In the future, 5 will allow us to determine the position of objects with millimeter 6 (accurate). 7 the BDS is of Chinese origin, the developers have said that “China’s BeiDou is world’s BeiDou”, and they are 8 (active) promoting international cooperation. And when the system is complete and fully practical in the years 9 (come), the BDS will undoubtedly provide 10 (count) benefits to China and the rest of the world. 【答案】 1．tapping 2．to 3．where 4．was sent 5．they 6．accuracy 7．Although/Though/While 8．actively 9．to come 10．countless 【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了太空的卫星帮助我们的手机定位。中国是根据北斗卫星导航系统来接收数据的。目前中国不断进行北斗系统的优化，开发者也正在积极推动国际合作，当系统在未来几年内建成并充分实用时，北斗系统无疑将为中国和世界其他地区带来无数利益。 1．考查非谓语动词。句意：我们已经习惯了点击手机屏幕来获取我们的位置地图。此处是固定搭配be used to doing sth，表示“习惯于做某事”，应用动名词作宾语，表示“习惯点击手机屏幕”。故填tapping。 2．考查介词。句意：这都要感谢太空中的卫星，它帮助我们的手机计算我们的位置。根据空前提示词“thanks”和句意可知，此处应用介词to，构成短语thanks to，表示“幸亏，多亏”。故填to。 3．考查宾语从句。句意：根据你在世界各地的位置，你的手机可能会从不同的系统接收数据。分析句子结构，此处考查宾语从句，从句缺地点状语“哪里”，应用连接副词where。故填where。 4．考查动词语态。句意：目前运行的北斗系统比2000年送入太空的第一版系统更先进。分析句子成分，空格作从句的谓语动词。由时间词“in 2000”可知，时态为一般过去时，the first version of the system和send之间是被动关系，应用被动语态，主语是单数，be动词使用was。故填was sent。 5．考查代词。句意：未来，它们将使我们能够以毫米级精度确定物体的位置。分析句子成分，空格在句中作主语。由句意可知，此处指代前文所提到的“several dozens of BDS satellites”，是复数，应用主格they，作主语。故填they。 6．考查名词。句意：未来，它们将使我们能够以毫米级精度确定物体的位置。分析句子成分，“with millimeter ________ (accurate)”在句中作状语，应用名词accuracy，构成名词短语millimeter accuracy，表示“毫米精确度”，该名词是不可数名词。故填accuracy。 7．考查让步状语从句。句意：虽然北斗系统是中国的，但开发者说“中国的北斗就是世界的北斗”，并且他们正在积极推动国际合作。由句意可知，“the BDS is of Chinese origin”和“the developers have said that “China’s BeiDou is world’s BeiDou””之间是让步关系，应用although/though/while，表示“虽然，尽管”，引导让步状语从句，空格置于句首，首字母要大写。故填Although/Though/While。 8．考查副词。句意：虽然北斗系统是中国的，但开发者说“中国的北斗就是世界的北斗”，并且他们正在积极推动国际合作。分析句子成分，该空修饰谓语动词are promoting，应用副词actively，表示“积极地”，作状语。故填actively。 9．考查非谓语动词。句意：当系统在未来几年内建成并充分实用时，北斗系统无疑将为中国和世界其他地区带来无数利益。分析句子成分，“in the years ________ (come)”在整个句子作时间状语，所以空处要用非谓语动词。由句意可知，此处表示将来的时间，应用不定式，即to come表示“未来几年”。故填to come。 10．考查形容词。句意：当系统在未来几年内建成并充分实用时，北斗系统无疑将为中国和世界其他地区带来无数利益。分析句子成分，空后是名词复数benefits，应用形容词，作定语修饰名词，此处不只一个好处，所以填countless，表示“无数的；数不胜数的”的好处。故填countless。 2 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！ 10 / 22 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
