Old City of Damascus, Syria Damascus is one of the oldest continuously inhabited cities in the world, whose craft industry was famed for its decorated swords. While Damask silk originated in China, it takes its name from the trading city of Damascus. One of the most arresting sights is the Great Mosque of Damascus. After the start of the Syrian civil war, the ancient city of Damascus was added to UNESCO’s list of world heritage in danger in 2013. Merv, Turkmenistan Merv, an ancient city and UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been home to human settlements since the bronze age. It was also once one of the most important cities in the Islamic world, attracting traders, scholars and travelers from distant regions. Today it is considered one of the oldest and best-preserved oasis-cities (绿洲城市) on central Asia’s Silk Roads. Taxila, Pakistan Easily reachable by car from Islamabad, Taxila is a UNESCO world heritage site. Situated at a Silk Roads crossroads, the “City of Cut Stone” was one of the ancient capitals of Gandhara, a territory stretching between the Oxus and Indus rivers. Among the vast site today is a Mesolithic cave and the city’s museum, which is home to at least 2,000 priceless objects. Dunhuang, China Dunhuang is an oasis city in north-west China that is home to the magnificent Mogao grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage site. The wall paintings tell an illustrated story of the Silk Roads from the fourth to the 14th centuries. Almost 500 caves have been preserved, housing countless murals and more than 2,000 painted sculptures.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要讲述了探索丝绸之路：从叙利亚到中国四个国家的四个令人惊叹的遗址。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Old City of Damascus, Syria部分中“While Damask silk originated in China, it takes its name from the trading city of Damascus. (虽然大马士革绸起源于中国，但它的名字却来源于贸易城市大马士革)”可知，大马士革绸名字来源于大马士革这座贸易城市。故选B。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。由文章Taxila, Pakistan部分中“Easily reachable by car from Islamabad, Taxila is a UNESCO world heritage site. Situated at a Silk Roads crossroads, the “City of Cut Stone” was one of the ancient capitals of Gandhara, a territory stretching between the Oxus and Indus rivers. Among the vast site today is a Mesolithic cave and the city’s museum, which is home to at least 2,000 priceless objects. (塔克西拉距离伊斯兰堡车程约一小时，是联合国教科文组织世界遗产地。它位于丝绸之路的交汇处，被誉为“石刻之城”，曾是古犍陀罗地区（位于阿姆河与印度河之间）的古都之一。如今，这片广阔的遗址上有一个中石器时代洞穴和城市博物馆，后者珍藏着至少2000件无价之宝)”可知，塔克西拉具有丰富的历史和文化遗产。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。由文章Old City of Damascus, Syria部分中“One of the most arresting sights is the Great Mosque of Damascus. After the start of the Syrian civil war, the ancient city of Damascus was added to UNESCO’s list of world heritage in danger in 2013. (最引人注目的景点之一是大马士革清真寺。叙利亚内战爆发后，这座古城于2013年被联合国教科文组织列入《世界遗产名录》中的濒危遗产名录)”、Merv, Turkmenistan部分中“Merv, an ancient city and UNESCO World Heritage Site, has been home to human settlements since the bronze age.

(敦煌是中国西北部的一座绿洲城市，拥有壮观的莫高窟，这是一处联合国教科文组织世界遗产地)”可知，这四个地方都是联合国教科文组织的世界遗产地。故选D。 B Beginning in Venice on April 26, 2022, Italian hiker Vienna Cammarota arrived in China last month, the last stop of her journey to the East, travelling more than 20,000 kilometers. With a simple backpack and two hiking poles, Cammarota experienced a journey from Italy across Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Georgia, Iran, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan to Kyrgyzstan. Inspired by Marco Polo, who travelled to China along the ancient Silk Road in 1275, Cammarota set off from the legendary explorer’s hometown of Venice to retrace the route on foot. “Marco Polo lived in China for 17 years and in his travelog, he provided detailed descriptions of the country, which allowed Westerners to learn about the charm of this Eastern nation for the first time,” Cammarota says. She adds that she hopes to see more of modern China by following in Marco Polo’s footsteps. As a hiker, Cammarota has paid special attention to road and bridge constructions, among which she was impressed by the Peljesac Bridge in Croatia, a project built by a union led by the China Road and Bridge Corporation. “When I see these buildings, I feel my heart swell with excitement. It’s only by witnessing them first-hand that you can truly grasp their incredible nature and can be shocked by their greatness,” she says. She began studying The Travels of Marco Polo in 2000 and planned to retrace Marco Polo’s route along the Silk Road. Her goal is to experience the profound cultural heritage (遗产) of Chinese civilization, witness the development and achievements of modern China, and most importantly, call for global harmony and inclusiveness by bringing into modern view the Silk Road history and spirit to boost dialogue and understanding between the East and the West. 4. What can we learn about Cammarota’s journey? A. It covered a long distance. B. The final stop of it is Kyrgyzstan. C. She arrived in China on April 26, 2022. D. She got support from many strangers during it. 5. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A. China’s appeal to Westerners. B. Marco Polo’s experience in China. C. The reasons and hope for Cammarota’s travel. D. The preparations Cammarota made for her travel. 6. How did Cammarota probably feel about the constructions in Croatia? A. Curious and grateful. B. Proud and satisfied. C. Excited and astonished. D. Relieved and confident. 7. What is the main goal of Cammarota’s journey? A. To enrich her life. B. To promote harmony in the world. C. To challenge herself physically. D. To learn more about the Silk Road. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了意大利徒步旅行者Vienna Cammarota沿着马可·波罗的足迹，从威尼斯出发，经过多个国家，最终到达中国的徒步旅行经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Beginning in Venice on April 26, 2022, Italian hiker Vienna Cammarota arrived in China last month, the last stop of her journey to the East, travelling more than 20,000 kilometers.( 2022年4月26日，意大利徒步旅行者Vienna Cammarota从威尼斯出发，上个月抵达中国，这是她东方之旅的最后一站，行程超过2万公里)”可知，Vienna Cammarota的旅程超过2万公里，距离很长。故选A。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Inspired by Marco Polo, who travelled to China along the ancient Silk Road in 1275, Cammarota set off from the legendary explorer’s hometown of Venice to retrace the route on foot. “Marco Polo lived in China for 17 years and in his travelog, he provided detailed descriptions of the country, which allowed Westerners to learn about the charm of this Eastern nation for the first time,” Cammarota says. She adds that she hopes to see more of modern China by following in Marco Polo’s footsteps.(受1275年沿古代丝绸之路前往中国的马可・波罗的启发，Cammarota从这位传奇探险家的故乡威尼斯出发，徒步重走这条路线。“马可・波罗在中国生活了 17 年，他在游记中对这个国家进行了详细描述，让西方人首次领略到这个东方国家的魅力。”Cammarota说道。她还表示，希望通过追随马可・波罗的脚步，更多地了解现代中国)”可知，第二段前半部分提到Cammarota受马可・波罗启发，从威尼斯出发重走路线，这是她旅行的原因；后半部分提到她希望通过追随马可・波罗的脚步更多地了解现代中国，这是她旅行的希望，所以该段主要讲述了Cammarota旅行的原因和希望。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段““When I see these buildings, I feel my heart swell with excitement. It’s only by witnessing them first-hand that you can truly grasp their incredible nature and can be shocked by their greatness,” she says.(“当我看到这些建筑时，内心激动不已。只有亲眼目睹，你才能真正领会它们的非凡之处，并为其伟大而震撼。”她说)”可知，她看到这些建筑时内心激动，并且为它们的伟大而震惊。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Her goal is to experience the profound cultural heritage (遗产) of Chinese civilization, witness the development and achievements of modern China, and most importantly, call for global harmony and inclusiveness by bringing into modern view the Silk Road history and spirit to boost dialogue and understanding between the East and the West.(她的目标是体验中华文明深厚的文化遗产，见证现代中国的发展与成就，而最重要的是，以现代视角重现丝绸之路的历史与精神，促进东西方之间的对话与理解，倡导全球和谐与包容)”可知，Cammarota此次旅行最重要的目标是倡导全球和谐与包容，促进东西方对话与理解，也就是推动世界和谐。故选B。 C Deeply rooted in the oral traditions of indigenous(土著的) communities, indigenous stories carry great significance. Such stories often convey moral lessons, societal norms and the shared wisdom of the community.Through these stories, the younger generations learn about their ancestors, the struggles they faced and the success they achieved. This develops a sense of continuity, strengthening the structure of indigenous societies.Moreover, by listening to and retelling these stories, community members contribute to the survival of indigenous languages. Indigenous stories serve as windows into the different cultures worldwide. Each story is a unique expression of a community’s worldview, shaped by its history, environment and spiritual beliefs. Through these stories, we gain a deeper appreciation for the different ways people view the world. And by telling their stories, indigenous peoples invite others to look into their traditions, developing empathy(共情) and promoting a more interconnected world where different cultures are celebrated and respected. Many indigenous stories explore themes of creation and the interconnectedness of the spiritual and material fields. Through these tales, individuals find a sense of purpose and connection to something greater than themselves.Indigenous stories provide stories of overcoming challenges, of not giving up in the face of hardship, and of the interconnectedness that combines communities together. In this way, storytelling promotes healing on both individual and communal levels. While indigenous stories are of great importance, their continuation is threatened. For example, the impact of modernization has disturbed traditional storytelling practices. The use of indigenous stories for commercial purposes also hurts their authenticity(真实性). Fortunately, despite these challenges, there’s a growing global recognition of the need to preserve and reinstate indigenous stories. Language restoration programs play an important role in preserving indigenous stories. They focus on teaching and bringing endangered languages back, which helps oral stories pass down. Cooperative projects between indigenous communities and external partners, such as researchers and storytellers, contribute to the record and preservation of oral traditions. Digital platforms, podcasts, and interactive media provide opportunities to share indigenous stories with a global audience, raising awareness about the importance of indigenous storytelling. 8. What can be learned about indigenous stories from paragraph 2? A. They teach people how to live worldwide. B. They improve our ability to tell stories. C. They promote cross-culture understanding. D. They are a symbol of wisdom and spirits. 9. What do indigenous stories mean for people in trouble? A. Signs of identity. B. Forms of pleasure. C. Means of survival. D. Sources of strength. 10. What does the underlined word“reinstate” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Learn. B. Restore. C. Interpret. D. Adapt. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Efforts to preserve indigenous stories. B. Impacts of the interactive mass media. C. Ways to share stories with the audience. D. Attitudes towards passing down stories. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了土著故事的重要性及其一些保护措施。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Through these stories, we gain a deeper appreciation for the different ways people view the world. And by telling their stories, indigenous peoples invite others to look into their traditions, developing empathy(共情) and promoting a more interconnected world where different cultures are celebrated and respected.( 通过这些故事，我们对人们看待世界的不同方式有了更深的了解。通过讲述他们的故事，土著人民邀请其他人了解他们的传统，培养同情心，促进建立一个更加相互联系的世界，在这个世界上，不同的文化得到庆祝和尊重。)”可知，土著故事能让我们更深入地理解不同文化，促进跨文化理解。故选C项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Indigenous stories provide stories of overcoming challenges, of not giving up in the face of hardship, and of the interconnectedness that combines communities together. In this way, storytelling promotes healing on both individual and communal levels.( 土著居民的故事讲述了克服挑战、面对困难不放弃的故事，以及将社区团结在一起的相互联系。通过这种方式，讲故事促进了个人和社区层面的愈合。)”可知，土著故事能为处于困境中的人提供克服困难的力量，是力量的源泉。故选D项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“While indigenous stories are of great importance, their continuation is threatened.( 虽然土著故事非常重要，但它们的延续受到了威胁。)”可知土著故事的传承受到威胁，再结合第五段中“Language restoration programs play an important role in preserving indigenous stories.( 语言恢复项目在保护土著故事方面发挥着重要作用。)”等内容，说明需要保护和恢复土著故事，“reinstate”应与“restore”意思相近，意为 “恢复”。故选B项 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Language restoration programs play an important role in preserving indigenous stories. They focus on teaching and bringing endangered languages back, which helps oral stories pass down. Cooperative projects between indigenous communities and external partners, such as researchers and storytellers, contribute to the record and preservation of oral traditions. Digital platforms, podcasts, and interactive media provide opportunities to share indigenous stories with a global audience, raising awareness about the importance of indigenous storytelling.( 语言恢复项目在保护土著故事方面发挥着重要作用。他们专注于教学和恢复濒危语言，这有助于口头故事的流传。土著社区与外部伙伴（如研究人员和讲故事者）之间的合作项目有助于记录和保存口头传统。数字平台、播客和互动媒体提供了与全球观众分享土著故事的机会，提高了对土著故事重要性的认识。)”可知，最后一段主要讲的是为保护和振兴土著故事所做的努力。故选A项。 D It’s no secret that people feel like they are getting busier. Yet, are we really crazy busy? Work undertaken at the University College London’s Centre for Time Use Research boldly claims that we are less, not more, busy over the past half century. How can that be? Consider this: Modern inventions like the dishwasher, the washer and dryer, the microwave and any number of other labor-saving devices, have fundamentally diminished the time needed for household chores. And “work hours per week declined for a century,” writes Kyle Kowalski, a best-selling author, who investigates in his book the reason we feel busy in such a convenient society. It isn’t just the reality of how we spend our time that has shifted, either. Culturally, how we define “busy” has also changed considerably. Historically working long hours didn’t generate admiration. In ancient Rome, otium, the Latin word signifying freedom from work and leisure time, was a dear activity to the wealthy who could happily afford not to work for a living. What a difference a few decades makes! Elon Musk, the wealthiest person on the planet, portrays himself as a workaholic, working 80 to 100 hours per week. Celebrities brag about their busyness and crazy work schedules on social media. Recent data from the U. S Census Bureau also suggests that the highest earners work the longest hours. Part of this monumental shift is down to the gradual rise of knowledge-intensive economies. Labor markets are increasingly highly structured and competitive, where human capital is one of the most prized economic assets. On the supply side, workers invest heavily in their education and skill development, recognizing that their human capital is their most marketable resource. On the demand side, companies, institutions, and headhunters compete to attract top talent and the best brains. All of this has helped usher in an environment where long work hours have become a status symbol; a way for individuals to demonstrate their worth. As Generative Artificial Intelligence enhances our productivity and efficiency at work, will we use the extra time to enjoy our lives, or will we simply push more tasks into an already overloaded schedule, seeking a sense of importance? 12. Which of the following could be Kyle Kowalski’s work? A. Why Do We Feel So Busy When Research Says We’re Not? B. What Do Modern Inventions Bring To Us Nowadays? C. How Does Modern Technology Weaken Our Busyness? D. When Will Household Chores Be Totally Done By AI? 13. Why is Elon Musk mentioned in paragraph 6? A. To introduce a topic. B. To support an idea. C. To make a prediction. D. To clarify a definition. 14. Which of the following best explains “monumental” underlined in paragraph 7? A. Major. B. Positive. C. Abrupt. D. Slight. 15. Why does the author raise the questions in the last paragraph? A. To urge readers to seek self-importance. B. To advocate leading a busy and admirable life. C. To inspire readers to reflect on the busy lifestyle. D. To suggest fighting against the overloaded schedule. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章通过比较历史和现代工作观念，探讨了为何现代人尽管有各种劳动力节省设备，但依然感觉非常忙碌。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Work undertaken at the University College London’s Centre for Time Use Research boldly claims that we are less, not more, busy over the past half century. How can that be? (伦敦大学学院时间使用研究中心进行的一项研究大胆声称，我们在过去的半个世纪里变得不那么忙了，而不是更加忙碌。怎么可能呢？)”以及第三段“And “work hours per week declined for a century,” writes Kyle Kowalski, a best-selling author, who investigates in his book the reason we feel busy in such a convenient society.(畅销书作家凯尔·科瓦尔斯基在他的书中写道，“每周工作时间减少了一个世纪”，他在书中调查了我们在这样一个便利的社会中感到忙碌的原因)”可推知，凯尔·科瓦尔斯基的书与我们为什么觉得忙碌有关，故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Elon Musk, the wealthiest person on the planet, portrays himself as a workaholic, working 80 to 100 hours per week. Celebrities brag about their busyness and crazy work schedules on social media. Recent data from the U. S Census Bureau also suggests that the highest earners work the longest hours.(埃隆·马斯克，地球上最富有的人，把自己描述为一个工作狂，每周工作80到100小时。名人在社交媒体上炫耀他们的忙碌和疯狂的工作时间表。来自美国人口普查局的最新数据显示，收入最高的人工作时间最长)”可推知，提到埃隆·马斯克是为了支持现代社会中长时间工作被视为一种值得仰慕的现象，故选B。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Historically, working long hours didn’t generate admiration.(从历史上看，长时间工作并不会引起人们的赞赏)”以及倒数第三段“What a difference a few decades makes!(几十年的时间改变了很多)”可知，变化是巨大的，而这一巨大转变的部分原因是知识密集型经济的逐渐崛起。所以这里的“monumental”意为“大规模的、巨大的”，结合选项A最为接近，故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段提出的“As Generative Artificial Intelligence enhances our productivity and efficiency at work, will we use the extra time to enjoy our lives, or will we simply push more tasks into (当生成式人工智能提高我们的生产力和工作效率时，我们会利用额外的时间享受生活，还是会简单地将更多任务塞进已经过载的安排中，寻求一种重要感？)”以及全文的讨论，可推知，作者提出这个问题的目的是希望读者能够反思这种忙碌的生活方式，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。 It is far too common that people are caught off guard by a snowstorm or some other attacks of wintry weather.

My 91-year-old grandfather called me to ____21____ his new hearing aid. For the first time in a long time, he could hear my voice. It ____22____ us both. I soon found out there was another reason my grandparents were so happy — their new audiologist (听觉病矫治专家), Anna. Unlike the ____23____ providers they’d been dealing with, Anna gave time and attention. Anna not only ____24____ the new hearing aid worked as it should, but also offered to go to my grandparents’ apartment to show them how to use it. Such ____25____ might sound rare, but I’ve since started wondering: What if it’s more common than we think? It started with some research that showed people often underestimate (低估) the ___26___ of strangers to engage with, or even befriend them. Then I came across a study that ____27____ news coverage of current affairs tends to be more negative than positive because humans tend to give negative events more attention. ____28____ stories can attract our attention and prepare us for disappointment. But if we don’t engage with positive ones, they might lead us to be more critical of the world, more defensive and less ____29____ than we need to be.

At our school, there was one ultimate prize: the scholarship jacket, a beautiful navy blue jacket with gold letters reading “Top Scholar.” I stared at it longingly every time I passed the trophy case; I wanted that jacket more than anything. My family was poor. My grandfather worked as a farmhand, and we lived in a small cottage. We could barely afford my school supplies, let alone a fancy jacket like that. Every year, the jacket was awarded to the student with the highest cumulative grades. My teachers often praised my diligence, and I knew in my heart I was the one who deserved it. But just a week before the award ceremony, the principal, Mr. Harris, called me into his office. “Marta,” he said, his expression serious as he pushed his glasses up his nose, “the school board has made a new decision. Starting this year, the scholarship jacket will cost $15. We can’t afford to fund it anymore.” I felt the blood drain from my face. Fifteen dollars might sound small to others, but it was a fortune for my family. I dragged my feet home that afternoon, tired and heavy-hearted. The dirt road felt longer than usual, and the autumn wind chilled me to the bone. When I finally pushed open our creaking door, the comforting smell of my grandfather’s cornbread met me. He was sitting at the kitchen table, repairing his work boots. He looked up and smiled, but his grin faded when he saw my upset face. “What’s wrong, honey?” he asked, setting down his needle and thread. He patted the chair next to him, his voice full of warmth. Through tears, I explained everything, handing him the principal’s note. He read it slowly, his weathered face hardening. He didn’t say anything for a long time. Then he looked at me, his eyes firm but gentle. “I sacrificed a lot to send you to school, Marta, but I won’t pay for that jacket. It’s not a reward if you have to buy it — it’s just a jacket then.” 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； I ran back to the principal’s office the next morning, determined to fight for what I deserved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the award ceremony, I walked into the school auditorium (礼堂) with my grandfather nervously. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1 I ran back to the principal’s office the next morning, determined to fight for what I deserved. My heart pounding, I stood before Mr. Harris and repeated my grandfather’s words. “The jacket is a symbol of hard work. It shouldn’t have a price.” I said, my voice gaining strength even as my hands trembled. The principal listened, his expression changing from mild surprise to deep reflection. After a moment of silence, he replied, “I see your point, Marta. What you’re defending is the very spirit of this award. I’ll present your case to the board again.” Though no promise was made, a small flame of hope was kindled in my heart. Paragraph 2 On the day of the award ceremony, I walked into the school auditorium with my grandfather nervously. So anxious was I that I barely heard the opening speeches. Then came the moment — my name was called. Walking to the stage, I saw Principal Harris holding the jacket, a warm smile on his face. He announced, “The board has decided the scholarship jacket will remain what it has always been — a pure honor for academic excellence, with no charge.” As the jacket was placed over my shoulders, the applause filling the room, I looked at my grandfather. There he stood, wiping a tear from the corner of his eye, his face glowing with pride. That day, not only did I receive a jacket, but a lesson was engraved in my heart: some things, like dignity and justice, are priceless; and standing up for them makes all the difference. 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕主人公玛尔塔展开，她一直是成绩优异的学生，渴望获得象征最高荣誉的奖学金夹克。然而，颁奖仪式前一周，校长告知奖学金夹克需自费15美元，这对她贫困的家庭来说是笔巨款。她回家向祖父哭诉，祖父认为若夹克需购买便失去奖励意义，拒绝为其付款。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上，我跑回校长办公室，下定决心要争取我应得的东西。”可知，第一段描写玛尔塔回到校长办公室，坚定地向校长陈述祖父的观点，强调夹克作为努力象征不应标价。校长听后陷入思考，答应再次向校董会提出此事，给玛尔塔带来一丝希望。 ②由第二段首句内容“在颁奖典礼那天，我和爷爷紧张地走进学校礼堂。”可知，第二段应描写颁奖仪式当天，玛尔塔和祖父紧张进入礼堂。玛尔塔被叫到上台，校长宣布校董会决定夹克仍作为纯粹荣誉，免费授予。玛尔塔穿上夹克，祖父为她骄傲，她也领悟到尊严和正义无价，坚持争取意义重大。 2.续写线索：争取应得之物——校长承诺——紧张参加仪式——获得夹克——领悟道理 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①重复：repeat /reiterate ②宣布：announce /declare ③放置：place /put/ lay 情绪类 ①紧张：nervously /tensely ②尊严：dignity / honor 【点睛】[高分句型 1] So anxious was I that I barely heard the opening speeches.（运用了so...that... 结构的部分倒装） [高分句型 2] Walking to the stage, I saw Principal Harris holding the jacket, a warm smile on his face.（运用了现在分词walking作状语和独立主格结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河南省两校2025—2026学年度秋期高三年级期末联考 英语试题卷 本试题卷共8页，四大题，67小题，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、班级、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用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，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试题卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试题卷和答题卡一并交回。 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 will the man do next?

B Beginning in Venice on April 26, 2022, Italian hiker Vienna Cammarota arrived in China last month, the last stop of her journey to the East, travelling more than 20,000 kilometers. With a simple backpack and two hiking poles, Cammarota experienced a journey from Italy across Slovenia, Croatia, Serbia, Bulgaria, Turkiye, Georgia, Iran, Turkmenistan, Azerbaijan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, and Kazakhstan to Kyrgyzstan. Inspired by Marco Polo, who travelled to China along the ancient Silk Road in 1275, Cammarota set off from the legendary explorer’s hometown of Venice to retrace the route on foot. “Marco Polo lived in China for 17 years and in his travelog, he provided detailed descriptions of the country, which allowed Westerners to learn about the charm of this Eastern nation for the first time,” Cammarota says. She adds that she hopes to see more of modern China by following in Marco Polo’s footsteps. As a hiker, Cammarota has paid special attention to road and bridge constructions, among which she was impressed by the Peljesac Bridge in Croatia, a project built by a union led by the China Road and Bridge Corporation. “When I see these buildings, I feel my heart swell with excitement. It’s only by witnessing them first-hand that you can truly grasp their incredible nature and can be shocked by their greatness,” she says. She began studying The Travels of Marco Polo in 2000 and planned to retrace Marco Polo’s route along the Silk Road. Her goal is to experience the profound cultural heritage (遗产) of Chinese civilization, witness the development and achievements of modern China, and most importantly, call for global harmony and inclusiveness by bringing into modern view the Silk Road history and spirit to boost dialogue and understanding between the East and the West. 4. What can we learn about Cammarota’s journey? A. It covered a long distance. B. The final stop of it is Kyrgyzstan. C. She arrived in China on April 26, 2022. D. She got support from many strangers during it. 5. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A. China’s appeal to Westerners. B. Marco Polo’s experience in China. C. The reasons and hope for Cammarota’s travel. D. The preparations Cammarota made for her travel. 6. How did Cammarota probably feel about the constructions in Croatia? A. Curious and grateful. B. Proud and satisfied. C. Excited and astonished. D. Relieved and confident. 7. What is the main goal of Cammarota’s journey? A. To enrich her life. B. To promote harmony in the world. C. To challenge herself physically. D. To learn more about the Silk Road. C Deeply rooted in the oral traditions of indigenous(土著的) communities, indigenous stories carry great significance. Such stories often convey moral lessons, societal norms and the shared wisdom of the community.Through these stories, the younger generations learn about their ancestors, the struggles they faced and the success they achieved. This develops a sense of continuity, strengthening the structure of indigenous societies.Moreover, by listening to and retelling these stories, community members contribute to the survival of indigenous languages. Indigenous stories serve as windows into the different cultures worldwide. Each story is a unique expression of a community’s worldview, shaped by its history, environment and spiritual beliefs. Through these stories, we gain a deeper appreciation for the different ways people view the world. And by telling their stories, indigenous peoples invite others to look into their traditions, developing empathy(共情) and promoting a more interconnected world where different cultures are celebrated and respected. Many indigenous stories explore themes of creation and the interconnectedness of the spiritual and material fields. Through these tales, individuals find a sense of purpose and connection to something greater than themselves.Indigenous stories provide stories of overcoming challenges, of not giving up in the face of hardship, and of the interconnectedness that combines communities together. In this way, storytelling promotes healing on both individual and communal levels. While indigenous stories are of great importance, their continuation is threatened. For example, the impact of modernization has disturbed traditional storytelling practices. The use of indigenous stories for commercial purposes also hurts their authenticity(真实性). Fortunately, despite these challenges, there’s a growing global recognition of the need to preserve and reinstate indigenous stories. Language restoration programs play an important role in preserving indigenous stories. They focus on teaching and bringing endangered languages back, which helps oral stories pass down. Cooperative projects between indigenous communities and external partners, such as researchers and storytellers, contribute to the record and preservation of oral traditions. Digital platforms, podcasts, and interactive media provide opportunities to share indigenous stories with a global audience, raising awareness about the importance of indigenous storytelling. 8. What can be learned about indigenous stories from paragraph 2? A. They teach people how to live worldwide. B. They improve our ability to tell stories. C. They promote cross-culture understanding. D. They are a symbol of wisdom and spirits. 9. What do indigenous stories mean for people in trouble? A. Signs of identity. B. Forms of pleasure. C. Means of survival. D. Sources of strength. 10. What does the underlined word“reinstate” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Learn. B. Restore. C. Interpret. D. Adapt. 11. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about? A. Efforts to preserve indigenous stories. B. Impacts of the interactive mass media. C. Ways to share stories with the audience. D. Attitudes towards passing down stories. D It’s no secret that people feel like they are getting busier. Yet, are we really crazy busy? Work undertaken at the University College London’s Centre for Time Use Research boldly claims that we are less, not more, busy over the past half century. How can that be? Consider this: Modern inventions like the dishwasher, the washer and dryer, the microwave and any number of other labor-saving devices, have fundamentally diminished the time needed for household chores. And “work hours per week declined for a century,” writes Kyle Kowalski, a best-selling author, who investigates in his book the reason we feel busy in such a convenient society. It isn’t just the reality of how we spend our time that has shifted, either. Culturally, how we define “busy” has also changed considerably. Historically, working long hours didn’t generate admiration. In ancient Rome, otium, the Latin word signifying freedom from work and leisure time, was a dear activity to the wealthy who could happily afford not to work for a living. What a difference a few decades makes! Elon Musk, the wealthiest person on the planet, portrays himself as a workaholic, working 80 to 100 hours per week. Celebrities brag about their busyness and crazy work schedules on social media. Recent data from the U. S Census Bureau also suggests that the highest earners work the longest hours. Part of this monumental shift is down to the gradual rise of knowledge-intensive economies. Labor markets are increasingly highly structured and competitive, where human capital is one of the most prized economic assets. On the supply side, workers invest heavily in their education and skill development, recognizing that their human capital is their most marketable resource. On the demand side, companies, institutions, and headhunters compete to attract top talent and the best brains. All of this has helped usher in an environment where long work hours have become a status symbol; a way for individuals to demonstrate their worth. As Generative Artificial Intelligence enhances our productivity and efficiency at work, will we use the extra time to enjoy our lives, or will we simply push more tasks into an already overloaded schedule, seeking a sense of importance? 12. Which of the following could be Kyle Kowalski’s work? A. Why Do We Feel So Busy When Research Says We’re Not? B. What Do Modern Inventions Bring To Us Nowadays? C. How Does Modern Technology Weaken Our Busyness? D. When Will Household Chores Be Totally Done By AI? 13. Why is Elon Musk mentioned in paragraph 6? A To introduce a topic. B. To support an idea. C. To make a prediction. D. To clarify a definition. 14. Which of the following best explains “monumental” underlined in paragraph 7? A. Major. B. Positive. C. Abrupt. D. Slight. 15. Why does the author raise the questions in the last paragraph? A. To urge readers to seek self-importance. B. To advocate leading a busy and admirable life. C. To inspire readers to reflect on the busy lifestyle. D. To suggest fighting against the overloaded schedule. 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。 It is far too common that people are caught off guard by a snowstorm or some other attacks of wintry weather.

At our school, there was one ultimate prize: the scholarship jacket, a beautiful navy blue jacket with gold letters reading “Top Scholar.” I stared at it longingly every time I passed the trophy case; I wanted that jacket more than anything. My family was poor. My grandfather worked as a farmhand, and we lived in a small cottage. We could barely afford my school supplies, let alone a fancy jacket like that. Every year, the jacket was awarded to the student with the highest cumulative grades. My teachers often praised my diligence, and I knew in my heart I was the one who deserved it. But just a week before the award ceremony, the principal, Mr. Harris, called me into his office. “Marta,” he said, his expression serious as he pushed his glasses up his nose, “the school board has made a new decision. Starting this year, the scholarship jacket will cost $15. We can’t afford to fund it anymore.” I felt the blood drain from my face. Fifteen dollars might sound small to others, but it was a fortune for my family. I dragged my feet home that afternoon, tired and heavy-hearted. The dirt road felt longer than usual, and the autumn wind chilled me to the bone. When I finally pushed open our creaking door, the comforting smell of my grandfather’s cornbread met me. He was sitting at the kitchen table, repairing his work boots. He looked up and smiled, but his grin faded when he saw my upset face. “What’s wrong, honey?” he asked, setting down his needle and thread. He patted the chair next to him, his voice full of warmth. Through tears, I explained everything, handing him the principal’s note. He read it slowly, his weathered face hardening. He didn’t say anything for a long time. Then he looked at me, his eyes firm but gentle. “I sacrificed a lot to send you to school, Marta, but I won’t pay for that jacket. It’s not a reward if you have to buy it — it’s just a jacket then.” 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好； I ran back to the principal’s office the next morning, determined to fight for what I deserved. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the award ceremony, I walked into the school auditorium (礼堂) with my grandfather nervously. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
