One community that quietly sits in the shadows of these tourist attractions is Tangelo Park. In the past, this community had very few services or transit options (交通选项) for residents. The community struggled with many social problems that one resident explained were so bad that “you couldn’t even walk to the store because you were afraid of being robbed at any time”. Education in Tangelo Park struggled as well; only a few students could graduate from the high school. Rosen grew up in a poor family in Tangelo Park as his parents moved there. He didn’t see anything wrong with how he, his family, and his friends lived until a tourist remarked, “So this is how they live for the rest of their lives.” He was so embarrassed that he was determined to change his fate. He received a bachelor’s degree from Cornell University and went on to have a successful career working for Disney, and he decided to give back to his community. Community leaders met with Rosen in 1993 to discuss a possible solution to these growing issues in Tangelo Park. In just an hour, with money guaranteed by Rosen, the leaders came up with the idea of developing the Tangelo Park Program (TPP). The program offers free preschool for every Tangelo Park 2-to-4-year-old. As well, TPP gives free college tuition and living expenses for every Tangelo Park high school graduate who is accepted to a college. In the 29 years that TPP has been active, the Tangelo Park community has experienced exceptional improvement. Donna Wilcox, a Harris Rosen Scholarship recipient, earned a bachelor’s degree from UCF using her full-ride (全额奖学金). “When people have the resources to go and succeed because of TPP, they can really influence others,” she says. “No one in my family ever went to college before, but now, my baby sister can’t even picture a life without college. My mother even went back and got her degree. I showed her that she could do it.” 4. What do we know about Tangelo Park in the past? A. It had a high crime rate. B. It had few high schools. C. It attracted many visitors every year. D. It boasted convenient transport services. 5. What made Rosen decide to change his life? A. He got an offer from Disney. B. He received a bachelor’s degree. C. He was looked down upon by a visitor. D. Disney offered to help his community. 6. What contributions did Rosen make to Tangelo Park? A. He taught preschool children lessons. B. He provided financial aid for TPP. C. He bought some facilities for students. D. He advocated providing free education. 7. What can we learn from Donna Wilcox’s words? A. TPP has bridged the education gap. B. TPP has been well-received recently. C. TPP set up different levels of education. D. TPP has had a good effect on her family. C When the patient arrives, it can barely move its body. The parrot tries to spread its green wings — and fails — to fly. It is just one of dozens of rainbow lorikeets (彩虹鹦鹉) being treated for a mysterious paralyzing (瘫痪) illness. Cases of what is called lorikeet paralysis syndrome (LPS) have been increasing over the past decade, says vet Claude Lacasse. But scientists are puzzled as to what is causing it. Lacasse has partnered with several researchers to try solving the mystery. So far, they’ve ruled out hundreds of human-made chemicals as well as various infectious diseases. Their current theory is that LPS is caused by a plant the birds are eating, something that flowers or fruits between late spring and early fall — when cases always rise. But researchers have no idea which plant or plants might be involved, why the disease is getting worse or whether climate change is playing a role. For now, the main concern is figuring out everything the sick lorikeets are eating. Ecologist Rachele Wilson used a technique involving testing DNA in sick birds’ droppings to match it to specific plant DNA. These data suggest the birds are feeding on more than 130 plant species, at least 30 of which are potentially poisonous. Other researchers are not just looking at plant DNA but also at bacterial and animal DNA to allow for the possibility that the birds are swallowing a poisonous insect in fruit, or a poison produced by bacteria found on a plant. It’s possible climate change plays a role by driving rainbow lorikeets to seek out unusual food sources. Animals are broadening their hunting range and going into more traditionally uninviting areas to find food, including fruit, seeds and, strangely, even meat. With climate change causing more extreme weather events and intensely hot summers, the need to find what’s paralyzing rainbow lorikeets — and potentially other species — is of urgent concern. “They’re amazing birds” Phalen says. “It’s hard to see them as sick as they are.” 8. What are researchers trying to find out first ? A. Why LPS is getting worse. B. Where rainbow lorikeets usually gather. C. How human-made chemicals led to LPS. D. What lorikeets are feeding on at present. 9. What does Wilson focus on in her study? A. Collecting DNA data from specific animals. B. Analyzing DNA in the waste of sick lorikeets. C. Identifying DNA hidden in different plants. D. Looking at plant, bacterial and animal DNA. 10 How does climate change possibly influence rainbow lorikeets? A. Increasing the variety of their diets. B. Enlarging the habitats of these birds. C. Adapting themselves to extreme weather events. D. Forcing them to swallow a poisonous insect in fruit. 11 What is the best title for the text? A. Endangered rare species in Australia B. Strange diseases striking Australian birds C. The mystery of Australia’s paralyzed parrots D. The influence of climate change on animals D Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by heir friends and peers in an “always on” world. We have studied teens and lech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected — it’s keeping up with what others post, too. Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than ever before. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking. Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延迟) can be hurtful. Technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society. 12. W hat makes teenagers’ networks continue to expand? A. The pressure to be nice. B. The requests of their parents. C. The need to meet more people. D. The burden of living independently. 13. What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media? A. Exciting. B. Challenging. C. Time-saving. D. Risk-taking. 14. What should be changed according to the last paragraph? A. The qualities of being a teen friend. B The conflicts between schools and parents. C. The relations between parents and their teens. D. The influences of social media on teen friendship. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Why more teens are addicted to social media. B. How teens nowadays gain long-standing friendships. C. How social media has made teen friendships more stressful. D. What makes teens become more sensitive to their peers’ needs. 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。 A Cleaner-Artist: Working to Live, Creating to Thrive At 5 am, 59-year-old Wang Liyun has already begun her morning reading.

I had brunch with a friend and picked up my new glasses. All done and headed back on the train. I wanted to yell at a couple of people for their rude behavior, but wisely just sat quietly. An old black gentleman entered the far end of the train car. In worn but neat clothes, he tipped his faded cap and greeted everyone with a warm “Good afternoon, folks.” Most ignored him, with cold blank faces. Then, he started to sing. I didn’t turn my head, but I felt a smile in my soul. Many people ask for money on the train, but I always feel happy when someone offers music instead. It feels like a gift. I let the notes settle in for a second before my eyes wandered. A young boy across from me, maybe ten, watched him, swaying to the rhythm, his mother too distracted by her phone to notice. He started his second song and my heart did a happy dance. “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. I’ll be your friend…” I love that song! Without thinking, I softly sang a little harmony with him. Right away, I decided he could have the $5 bill in my purse. He looked tall and thin, but he had a strong voice and kind energy. Life had clearly been hard for him, but he still stood tall and carried himself with quiet dignity. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Somehow, he noticed me singing along. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 枣阳一中2025至2026学年上学期高三年级2月月考 英语试题 考生须知： 1.本卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2.答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场、座位及准考证号并核对条形码信息。 3.所有答案必须写在答题卷上，写在试卷上无效，考试结束后，只需上交答题卷。 第I卷(选择题) 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30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.What is the woman doing?

One community that quietly sits in the shadows of these tourist attractions is Tangelo Park. In the past, this community had very few services or transit options (交通选项) for residents. The community struggled with many social problems that one resident explained were so bad that “you couldn’t even walk to the store because you were afraid of being robbed at any time”. Education in Tangelo Park struggled as well; only a few students could graduate from the high school. Rosen grew up in a poor family in Tangelo Park as his parents moved there. He didn’t see anything wrong with how he, his family, and his friends lived until a tourist remarked, “So this is how they live for the rest of their lives.” He was so embarrassed that he was determined to change his fate. He received a bachelor’s degree from Cornell University and went on to have a successful career working for Disney, and he decided to give back to his community. Community leaders met with Rosen in 1993 to discuss a possible solution to these growing issues in Tangelo Park. In just an hour, with money guaranteed by Rosen, the leaders came up with the idea of developing the Tangelo Park Program (TPP). The program offers free preschool for every Tangelo Park 2-to-4-year-old. As well, TPP gives free college tuition and living expenses for every Tangelo Park high school graduate who is accepted to a college. In the 29 years that TPP has been active, the Tangelo Park community has experienced exceptional improvement. Donna Wilcox, a Harris Rosen Scholarship recipient, earned a bachelor’s degree from UCF using her full-ride (全额奖学金). “When people have the resources to go and succeed because of TPP, they can really influence others,” she says. “No one in my family ever went to college before, but now, my baby sister can’t even picture a life without college. My mother even went back and got her degree. I showed her that she could do it.” 4. What do we know about Tangelo Park in the past? A. It had a high crime rate. B. It had few high schools. C. It attracted many visitors every year. D. It boasted convenient transport services. 5. What made Rosen decide to change his life? A. He got an offer from Disney. B. He received a bachelor’s degree. C. He was looked down upon by a visitor. D. Disney offered to help his community. 6. What contributions did Rosen make to Tangelo Park? A. He taught preschool children lessons. B. He provided financial aid for TPP. C. He bought some facilities for students. D. He advocated providing free education. 7. What can we learn from Donna Wilcox’s words? A. TPP has bridged the education gap. B. TPP has been well-received recently. C. TPP set up different levels of education. D. TPP has had a good effect on her family. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了Rosen如何通过设立Tangelo Park Program（TPP）改变了他的家乡Tangelo Park的教育状况和社区环境。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The community struggled with many social problems that one resident explained were so bad that “you couldn’t even walk to the store because you were afraid of being robbed at any time”.(这个社区面临着许多社会问题，一位居民解释说，这些问题非常严重，“你甚至不敢走路去商店，因为你害怕随时被抢劫”)”可知，坦吉洛公园的犯罪率很高。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He didn’t see anything wrong with how he, his family, and his friends lived until a tourist remarked, “So this is how they live for the rest of their lives.” He was so embarrassed that he was determined to change his fate.(他不觉得自己、家人和朋友的生活方式有什么不对，直到一位游客说：‘原来他们就是这样度过余生的。’他感到非常尴尬，决心改变自己的命运)”可知，被一位游客者瞧不起让罗森决定改变他的生活。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In just an hour, with money guaranteed by Rosen, the leaders came up with the idea of developing the Tangelo Park Program (TPP). The program offers free preschool for every Tangelo Park 2-to-4-year-old. As well, TPP gives free college tuition and living expenses for every Tangelo Park high school graduate who is accepted to a college.(有了Rosen的资金保证，在短短一个小时内，领导人就提出了发展“坦吉洛公园计划”（TPP）的想法。该项目为所有坦吉洛公园2至4岁的孩子提供免费的学前教育。此外，TPP还为每一位被大学录取的坦吉洛公园高中毕业生提供免费的大学学费和生活费)”可知，罗森为TPP提供了财政援助。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“No one in my family ever went to college before, but now, my baby sister can’t even picture a life without college. My mother even went back and got her degree. I showed her that she could do it.(我们家以前没有人上过大学，但现在，我的小妹妹甚至无法想象没有大学的生活。我母亲甚至回去拿到了学位。我让她知道她可以做到)”可知，TPP对唐娜·威尔科克斯的家庭有很好的影响。故选D。 C When the patient arrives, it can barely move its body. The parrot tries to spread its green wings — and fails — to fly. It is just one of dozens of rainbow lorikeets (彩虹鹦鹉) being treated for a mysterious paralyzing (瘫痪) illness. Cases of what is called lorikeet paralysis syndrome (LPS) have been increasing over the past decade, says vet Claude Lacasse. But scientists are puzzled as to what is causing it. Lacasse has partnered with several researchers to try solving the mystery. So far, they’ve ruled out hundreds of human-made chemicals as well as various infectious diseases. Their current theory is that LPS is caused by a plant the birds are eating, something that flowers or fruits between late spring and early fall — when cases always rise. But researchers have no idea which plant or plants might be involved, why the disease is getting worse or whether climate change is playing a role. For now, the main concern is figuring out everything the sick lorikeets are eating. Ecologist Rachele Wilson used a technique involving testing DNA in sick birds’ droppings to match it to specific plant DNA. These data suggest the birds are feeding on more than 130 plant species, at least 30 of which are potentially poisonous. Other researchers are not just looking at plant DNA but also at bacterial and animal DNA to allow for the possibility that the birds are swallowing a poisonous insect in fruit, or a poison produced by bacteria found on a plant. It’s possible climate change plays a role by driving rainbow lorikeets to seek out unusual food sources. Animals are broadening their hunting range and going into more traditionally uninviting areas to find food, including fruit, seeds and, strangely, even meat. With climate change causing more extreme weather events and intensely hot summers, the need to find what’s paralyzing rainbow lorikeets — and potentially other species — is of urgent concern. “They’re amazing birds,” Phalen says. “It’s hard to see them as sick as they are.” 8. What are researchers trying to find out first ? A. Why LPS is getting worse. B. Where rainbow lorikeets usually gather. C. How human-made chemicals led to LPS. D. What lorikeets are feeding on at present. 9. What does Wilson focus on in her study? A. Collecting DNA data from specific animals. B. Analyzing DNA in the waste of sick lorikeets. C. Identifying DNA hidden in different plants. D. Looking at plant, bacterial and animal DNA. 10. How does climate change possibly influence rainbow lorikeets? A. Increasing the variety of their diets. B. Enlarging the habitats of these birds. C. Adapting themselves to extreme weather events. D. Forcing them to swallow a poisonous insect in fruit. 11. What is the best title for the text? A. Endangered rare species in Australia B. Strange diseases striking Australian birds C. The mystery of Australia’s paralyzed parrots D. The influence of climate change on animals 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了澳大利亚彩红鹦鹉患有神秘的瘫痪疾病（LSP），以及研究人员真正研究造成这一疾病的原因等情况。 【详解】1.细节理解题。根据第三段中“For now, the main concern is figuring out everything the sick lorikeets are eating.(目前，人们主要关心的是弄清楚这些患病的鹦鹉吃什么)”可知，研究人员目前最关心的是想了解彩红鹦鹉吃什么食物。故选D。 2.细节理解题。根据第四段中“Ecologist Rachele Wilson used a technique involving testing DNA in sick birds’ droppings to match it to specific plant DNA. These data suggest the birds are feeding on more than 130 plant species, at least 30 of which are potentially poisonous.(生态学家Rachele Wilson使用了一种技术，包括检测病鸟粪便中的DNA，以便与特定植物的DNA进行匹配。这些数据表明，这些鸟类以130多种植物为食，其中至少有30种可能有毒)”可知，Wilson的研究重点是分析患病的鹦鹉粪便中的DNA。故选B。 3.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It’s possible climate change plays a role by driving rainbow lorikeets to seek out unusual food sources. Animals are broadening their hunting range and going into more traditionally uninviting areas to find food, including fruit, seeds and, strangely, even meat.(气候变化可能在驱使彩虹鹦鹉寻找不寻常的食物来源方面发挥了作用。动物们正在扩大它们的狩猎范围，进入传统意义上不受欢迎的地区寻找食物，包括水果、种子，奇怪的是，甚至还有肉)”可知，气候变化促使彩红鹦鹉到处寻找食物，扩大狩猎范围，寻找不同的食物。由此推知，气候变化增加了彩红鹦鹉饮食的多样性。故选A。 4.主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“The parrot tries to spread its green wings — and fails — to fly. It is just one of dozens of rainbow lorikeets (彩虹鹦鹉) being treated for a mysterious paralyzing (瘫痪) illness. Cases of what is called lorikeet paralysis syndrome (LPS) have been increasing over the past decade, says vet Claude Lacasse. But scientists are puzzled as to what is causing it.(鹦鹉试图展开它的绿色翅膀，但是失败了。这只是数十只彩虹鹦鹉中的一只，它们正在接受一种神秘的麻痹性疾病的治疗。兽医Claude Lacasse说，在过去的十年里，所谓的洛里基特麻痹综合症（LPS）病例一直在增加。但是科学家们对是什么原因造成了这种现象感到困惑)”可知，文章主要介绍了澳大利亚彩红鹦鹉患有神秘的瘫痪疾病（LSP），以及研究人员真正研究造成这一疾病的原因等情况。由此可知，C项“澳大利亚鹦鹉患瘫痪疾病之谜”适合作文章标题。故选C。 D Public health data signals a genuine crisis in adolescent mental health: rising rates of anxiety, depression, and hopelessness. But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect — the burdens that are shouldered by heir friends and peers in an “always on” world. We have studied teens and lech for over a decade. Their networks are ever-expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. And it’s not just staying connected — it’s keeping up with what others post, too. Social media platforms thus make it technically possible to maintain more relationships than ever before. The result is an overwhelming wave of social information. It’s especially intense for adolescents whose sensitivities drive them to care deeply about what their peers are doing and thinking. Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. Replying too quickly can be seen as over-eager, especially when the friendship is new or not close. But when it’s a close friend, too long a lag (延迟) can be hurtful. Technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good friend. Too often, these dynamics hit teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society. 12. W hat makes teenagers’ networks continue to expand? A. The pressure to be nice. B. The requests of their parents. C. The need to meet more people. D. The burden of living independently. 13. What does the author think of being a good friend in the age of social media? A. Exciting. B. Challenging. C. Time-saving. D. Risk-taking. 14. What should be changed according to the last paragraph? A. The qualities of being a teen friend. B. The conflicts between schools and parents. C. The relations between parents and their teens. D. The influences of social media on teen friendship. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Why more teens are addicted to social media. B. How teens nowadays gain long-standing friendships. C. How social media has made teen friendships more stressful. D. What makes teens become more sensitive to their peers’ needs. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲是社交媒体是如何让青少年的友谊变得更紧张的。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“Their networks are ever expanding, in no small part because there’s a sense that being nice means accepting fellow requests from acquaintances and friends-of-friends. (他们的社交网络不断扩大，很大程度上是因为他们觉得友善意味着接受来自熟人和朋友的朋友的请求。)”可知，让青少年的社交网络不断扩大的是友善的压力。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“Significant stress comes with trying to be a “good friend” in the age of social media. Friendship requires both public and behind-the-scenes support. Even before a social media post is made public, close friends can be pulled into photo selection, editing, and final examination. Besides, they need to respond in the right way and in the right amount of time, which differs from one relationship to another. (在社交媒体时代，试图成为“好朋友”会带来巨大的压力。友谊需要公开和幕后的支持。甚至在社交媒体帖子被公开之前，亲密的朋友就可以参与照片的选择、编辑和最终检查。此外，他们需要以正确的方式和适当的时间做出回应，这在不同的关系中是不同的。)”可知，在社交媒体时代做一个好朋友是具有挑战性的。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Technologies have transformed how friendships play out. Social media increases the burdens that come along with being a good Friend. Too often, these dynamics hit. teens hard in ways that are ignored by adults. And that is what should be changed with the help of parents, schools and other parts of society. (但科技已经改变了友谊的发展方式。社交媒体增加了成为好朋友的负担。通常情况下，这些动态对青少年的影响是成年人所忽视的。在家长、学校和社会其他方面的帮助下，这种情况应该得到改变。”可知，根据最后一段，应该改变的是社交媒体对青少年友谊的影响。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“But as we worry about teens who are struggling, we can’t ignore another mounting effect—the burdens that are shouldered by their friends and peers in an “always on” world. (但是，当我们担心那些正在挣扎的青少年时，我们不能忽视另一个日益增加的影响——在一个“永远在线”的世界里，他们的朋友和同龄人所承担的负担。）”可知，本文主要讲的是社交媒体如何让青少年的友谊变得更紧张的，故选C。 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。 A Cleaner-Artist: Working to Live, Creating to Thrive At 5 am, 59-year-old Wang Liyun has already begun her morning reading.

Two years later, a video of her painting in that tool room went viral, bringing her into the public eye. ____19____ Despite the attention, Wang still remains calm and clear-headed, committing herself to a simple life and continuing her creation. Since 2023, Wang has published three nonfiction collections and her first full-length novel. “I never separate dreams from day or night. I walk and dream, head held high. Painting to me is colored poetry; writing is even freer, full of imagination,” Wang shared. ____20____ Apart from her essential cleaning work, reading, writing and painting are the focal points of her schedule. For her, cleaning sustains her body but art lifts her soul. A. She traveled to Fujian alone to learn painting. B. This philosophy is reflected in her daily routine. C.

During her lunch break, she uses every spare moment to draw or write. G. Wang proves how one can live a fulfilling life within an ordinary routine. 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. A 19. D 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了59岁的清洁工王丽云如何在平凡的工作中坚持创作，实现艺术梦想的故事。 【16题详解】 上文“At 5 am, 59-year-old Wang Liyun has already begun her morning reading. At 6 am, she is at work, cleaning office buildings.(凌晨5点，59岁王丽云已经开始晨读。早上6点，她开始工作，打扫办公楼)”说明王丽云在清晨就开始工作，空处和前文为顺接关系，说明王丽云在工作的间隙还进行创作。所以F项“在午餐休息时间，她利用每一个空闲时间画画或写作”承接前文工作节奏，具体展现她如何在忙碌中坚持创作，逻辑连贯。故选F。 【17题详解】 上文“Within the daily routine of wiping windows and polishing stairs, she has created works such as “Broom and Starry Sky” and written poems like “The Weight of Dust.”(在擦窗户和擦楼梯的日常生活中，她创作了《扫帚与星空》等作品，还写了《尘埃的重量》等诗歌)”说明王丽云在平凡的工作中创造了不平凡的艺术作品，空处和前文为顺接关系，说明王丽云在平凡的生活中实现了自我价值。后文“Even as she bends low to sweep away dust, she tries to show-through her words and paintings-what it means to live with courage, optimism, and burning passion.(即便她弯腰低头清扫灰尘时，她也努力通过自己的言语和画作来传达出勇敢、乐观和炽热激情地生活到底意味着什么)”通过“即使……也……”的句式，将外在的体力劳动与内在的精神表达形成鲜明对比，重点突出了王丽云在平凡工作中坚持艺术创作的精神追求。所以G项“王丽云证明了如何在平凡的日常生活中过上充实的生活”中proves与后文tries to show形成语义呼应；live a fulfilling life则精准概括了后文所述——她在清洁中保持尊严、在创作中获得快乐的人生态度，因而能够统领全段，点明主旨。故选G。 【18题详解】 上文“Born into a Hunan farming family, Wang left high school early and hold various jobs. In 2017, after her daughter graduated, Wang followed her inner calling.(王丽云出生在湖南一个农民家庭，高中辍学后做过各种工作。2017年，女儿毕业后，王丽云听从了内心的召唤)”说明王丽云一直有追求艺术的梦想，空处和前文为顺接关系，说明王丽云去追求自己的梦想了。所以A项“她独自前往福建学习绘画”正是她追寻艺术梦想的具体行动，顺理成章引出后文“carry all her savings”，符合语境。故选A。 【19题详解】 上文“Two years later, a video of her painting in that tool room went viral, bringing her into the public eye.(两年后，一段她在工具房里画画的视频在网上疯传，让她进入了公众的视野)”说明王丽云的视频在网上走红，空处和前文为顺接关系，说明王丽云因此成为了网络名人。所以D项“因此，她在网上被称为“清洁工艺术家””符合语境，As a result清晰地表明了因果关系，并且cleaner-artist的称号与文章标题及核心身份完全呼应，自然引出下文她面对成名后的态度。故选D。 【20题详解】 上文““I never separate dreams from day or night. I walk and dream, head held high. Painting to me is colored poetry; writing is even freer, full of imagination,” Wang shared.(“我从不把梦想与白天和黑夜分开。我边走边做梦，昂首挺胸。绘画对我来说是彩色的诗歌；写作更加自由，充满想象力，”王丽云分享道)”说明王丽云的生活哲学，空处和前文为顺接关系，说明王丽云的生活哲学体现在她的日常生活中。所以B项“这种哲学体现在她的日常生活中”中的This philosophy指代前文她所说的那段话，is reflected in her daily routine则总结并引出后文对她具体作息的描述，使从抽象理念到具体实践的过渡非常流畅自然。故选B。 第三部分语言运用(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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I always miss the days spent at university.

In my view, paying children for household chores is a practice that should be embraced, as it serves as a powerful catalyst for personal growth and financial literacy. For children themselves, this approach instills a strong sense of responsibility. When children are compensated for their efforts, they learn to take ownership of their tasks and understand the value of hard work. This not only boosts their self-esteem but also teaches them the importance of commitment and perseverance. For the whole family, paying for chores can create a more harmonious and cooperative household. It encourages children to actively participate in family responsibilities, fostering a sense of teamwork and shared goals. In conclusion, paying children for household chores is not just about cleaning the house; it is about equipping them with essential life skills that will benefit them in the long run. Possible Version 2: Should Parents Pay Their Children for Doing Household Chores? In my view, paying children for household chores is like watering a plant with saltwater— it may seem nurturing, but it ultimately stunts growth. I firmly believe this practice should be avoided. For the children, it undermines intrinsic motivation. When rewards are tied to every chore, children may begin to associate helping out with financial gain rather than personal satisfaction or a sense of duty. This could lead to a lack of willingness to contribute without expecting something in return. Within the family context, paying for chores can disrupt the harmony of shared responsibilities. A family is a unit bound by love and mutual support, not by transactions. When money enters the equation, it can create an imbalance, making children feel like employees rather than integral members of the family. In conclusion, while the intention may be good, paying children for chores risks undermining their personal development and the family’s cohesive spirit. Instead, we should encourage children to contribute out of love and a sense of belonging. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生就校英语俱乐部在校园论坛上发起的“Should parents pay their children for doing household chores?”这一话题用英语回帖。 【详解】1.词汇积累 在我看来：in my view → in my opinion 充当：serve as → act as 提高：boost → improve 必要的：essential → necessary 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：This not only boosts their self-esteem but also teaches them the importance of commitment and perseverance. 拓展句：Not only does this boost their self-esteem but also teaches them the importance of commitment and perseverance. 【点睛】【高分句型1】In my view, paying children for household chores is a practice that should be embraced, as it serves as a powerful catalyst for personal growth and financial literacy.（运用了动名词短语作主语、that引导的定语从句以及as引导的原因状语从句） 【高分句型2】It encourages children to actively participate in family responsibilities, fostering a sense of teamwork and shared goals.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） 第二节(满分25分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 It was a hot day in New York City. I had brunch with a friend and picked up my new glasses. All done and headed back on the train. I wanted to yell at a couple of people for their rude behavior, but wisely just sat quietly. An old black gentleman entered the far end of the train car. In worn but neat clothes, he tipped his faded cap and greeted everyone with a warm “Good afternoon, folks.” Most ignored him, with cold blank faces. Then, he started to sing. I didn’t turn my head, but I felt a smile in my soul. Many people ask for money on the train, but I always feel happy when someone offers music instead. It feels like a gift. I let the notes settle in for a second before my eyes wandered. A young boy across from me, maybe ten, watched him, swaying to the rhythm, his mother too distracted by her phone to notice. He started his second song and my heart did a happy dance. “Lean on me, when you’re not strong. I’ll be your friend…” I love that song! Without thinking, I softly sang a little harmony with him. Right away, I decided he could have the $5 bill in my purse. He looked tall and thin, but he had a strong voice and kind energy. Life had clearly been hard for him, but he still stood tall and carried himself with quiet dignity. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Somehow, he noticed me singing along. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Somehow, he noticed me singing along. A warm smile spread across his face, and he nodded gently, encouraging me to keep going. I felt a little shy but continued, our voices blending perfectly. The boy across from us clapped his hands, and even his mother put down her phone, smiling softly. When he finished the song, I pulled out the $5 bill and handed it to him. He thanked me sincerely, his eyes shining with gratitude. It was still hot and sticky inside the car, but something had changed. The cold silence was gone, replaced by a soft, warm atmosphere. Passengers who had ignored him before now looked at him with kindness. He sang a few more songs, and more people dropped coins into his cap. As I got off the train, he waved at me, and I waved back, my heart full of joy. That day, I learned that a little kindness and music can turn an ordinary moment into something beautiful. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者在纽约地铁的经历为线索，讲述了作者在闷热的地铁上，偶遇一位虽生活艰难却依旧乐观歌唱的黑人老先生，从最初的默默聆听，到轻声合唱、慷慨解囊，最终用小小的善意温暖了彼此，也让冷漠的车厢变得温暖的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“不知怎的，他注意到我在跟着一起唱。”可知，第一段可描写老先生发现作者合唱后的反应，以及作者递钱、老先生致谢的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“车厢里依旧闷热黏腻，但一切都已悄然改变。”可知，第二段可描写车厢氛围的转变，以及作者下车时的感悟。 2.续写线索：偶遇歌唱者——聆听合唱——慷慨解囊——致谢——车厢氛围转变——下车感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①合唱：sing along/join in the singing/chorus with him ②递钱：hand the money to him/give the money to him/pass the bill to him ③挥手：wave at sb./wave to sb./give sb. a wave 情绪类 ①感激：thank sb./show his gratitude/be grateful ③快乐：joy/happiness 【点睛】【高分句型 1】A warm smile spread across his face, and he nodded gently, encouraging me to keep going.
