He won the Nobel Prize in Physics for his discovery of the Photoelectric Effect, which formed the basis of the Quantum Theory. However, he wasn’t always considered a genius. He didn’t speak until he was four, and couldn’t read until he was seven. His teachers and parents thought he was slow, so he was driven from school and couldn’t get into the Zurich Polytechnic School. He later famously said, “Failure is success in progress.” Frank Lloyd Wright (1867-1959) Frank Lloyd Wright, widely regarded as America’s greatest architect, pioneered the philosophy of “organic architecture” that revolutionized modern design. His innovative approach emphasized creating structures that existed in harmony with their natural surroundings, a concept that grew from his childhood experiences in rural Wisconsin. He designed buildings and homes across the United States for more than 70 years. He created most of his works from 1900 through the 1950s, but his open-living spaces and imaginative designs still appear very modern today. Johannes Brahms (1833-1897) Johannes Brahms was a leading German composer and pianist of the Romantic period. As a master of symphonic and chamber music, he is often grouped with Bach and Beethoven as one of the “Three B”. Unlike his contemporaries, Brahms was known for his absolute music, avoiding the programmatic elements popular at the time. His major works include the German Requiem, the Violin Concerto, and the Hungarian Dances. He created a unique sound that blended classical structures with rich Romantic expression, securing his legacy as a timeless figure in Western classical music. 1. What did Albert Einstein win the Nobel Prize in Physics for? A. His discovery of the Photoelectric Effect. B. His General Theory of Relativity. C. His research on the history of physics. D. His explanation of children’s learning speed. 2. What can we learn about Frank Lloyd Wright from the text? A. Most of his works were created after the 1950s. B. He is the only architect who focuses on natural surroundings in his designs. C. His “organic architecture” philosophy had a great influence on modern design. D. He spent his whole childhood in big cities and drew inspiration from urban life. 3. What do Albert Einstein, Frank Lloyd Wright and Johannes Brahms have in common? A. They were born in the 20th century. B. They graduated from the Zurich Polytechnic School. C. They completely rejected professional traditions. D. They made lasting contributions to their own fields. B Many travelers have toyed with the idea of visiting each national park, but the Goldsteins from Charlotte, North Carolina, made it a reality before their two kids, Luke and Winston, turned 18．They spent six years completing their journey. Dad Bill explained that every school break, they would try to visit parks. Along the way, the family made some sacrifices (牺牲): from eating bread out of a cooler the back of the car to staying in economical accommodations. Bill credits his wife, Alisa, with managing the budget and keeping costs down. Her advice for others starting their own national park adventures is to begin with parks that are nearby and gradually explore farther. The Goldsteins often visited several parks on one trip, including 11 parks during the summer after their first visit to Yosemite. The family didn’t need fancy equipment — just the basics like sun protection, first aid, and plenty of water. One of the most dangerous things they faced was dehydration. Luke remembered running out of water 10 miles from the end of a hike at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. They had to depend on patience, faith, and determination to make it back. A key part of their experience was the Junior ranger Program, which is available at nearly every national park. Kids are invited to complete a list of educational activities to earn a junior ranger badge (徽章), which helps them connect with and understand the park. Initially, Luke thought being without phone service and away from friends was the worst part. He often complained about tough hikes. But looking back, he realized how the journey shaped him, making him more responsible and appreciative of both his family and nature. Today, the Goldsteins continue visiting national parks, which continues to teach them the value of determination, family connections, and appreciation of the natural world. 4. What is Alisa Goldstein’s advice for others who will start the national park adventures? A. Only visiting a park with family at a time. B. Finding a professional guide during each adventure. C. Seeking expert financial advice before the adventures. D. Starting with near parks and exploring farther gradually. 5. How can the kids get the junior ranger badge? A. By finishing educational activities. B. By hiking 10 miles in the park. C. By managing the travel budget. D. By visiting all national parks. 6. What is Luke’s attitude towards the trips now? A. Opposed. B. Grateful. C. Doubtful. D. Unknown. 7. Where can you read the passage? A. In a fashion magazine. B. In a science textbook. C. In a travel magazine. D. In a sports newspaper. C Communication is more than just words. In fact, studies show that when meeting a stranger, only 7% of the impression we make comes from our actual words. Our tone of voice contributes 38%, and a huge 55% comes from body language— the unspoken signals we send through gestures, postures, and facial expressions. This silent language often reveals our true feelings, even when our words say something different. Take hand gestures as an example. A salesman might notice a customer resting their hand on their chin during a presentation. This gesture usually betokens disinterest, telling the salesman that the customer is not engaged. On the other hand, open palms are often a sign of honesty and openness across many cultures. Eye contact is another powerful part of body language. When someone looks at you with dilated pupils (瞳孔), it often means they are interested in what you’re saying. But if their pupils shrink (缩小) and their gaze feels sharp, they might be feeling unfriendly or challenging you. However, the rules change with culture; in some Asian countries, avoiding direct eye contact shows respect, while in Western cultures, it can seem rude or untrustworthy. Facial expressions, especially smiles, are also key. A genuine smile involves not just the mouth but also the eyes, creating “crow’s feet” around them. Fake smiles, by contrast, only use the mouth muscles. But even smiles have cultural differences. In some countries, a smile might hide embarrassment, not just happiness. Experts suggest a technique called “mirroring” to build connection. This means gently copying the other person’s body language—like leaning forward if they do, or using similar gestures. The key is to do it naturally; forced mirroring can feel insincere. Body language is a skill we can learn. By understanding these silent signals, we can communicate more effectively and build better relationships with others. 8. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To lead into the main topic of body language. B. To show the results of a study on communication. C. To explain the differences between words and tones. D. To describe how to make a good impression on strangers. 9. What does the underlined word “betokens” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Advocates. B. Inquires. C. Indicates. D. Consumes. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The importance of body language in an interview. B. Differences in using eye contact in Asian countries. C. How to make a good impression through eye contact. D. Eye contact serving as a key element of body language. 11. What can be known from the last two paragraphs? A. Body language can be very difficult to master. B. Mirroring must be done naturally to work well. C. Mirroring is the best way to build connection with others. D. It’s not essential to understand silent signals for most people. D Most air conditioners use refrigerant gases called HFCs (氢氟碳化合物), which are hundreds of times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than CO2. Researchers have long sought ways to produce cooling systems that do without these troublesome gases. Now Exergyn, a Dublin-based company, claims to have developed a new type of air conditioning which avoids using HFCs. Exergyn’s system uses nitinol, a shape-memory alloy (合金) of nickel and titanium. All shape-memory alloys release heat when compressed (压缩), and then absorb it when the pressure is released and they return to their original shape. But Exergyn’s version of nitinol displays this quality to a remarkable degree. For its experimental model, the company produced 4cm2 plates of the alloy, each with holes to permit the passage of a heat-carrying liquid or gas. A range of eco-friendly substances such as water, salty water and air can be employed in that role, thus avoiding the use of HFCs. Kevin O’Toole, Exergyn’s managing director, explains, “To build a refrigerator involves fitting these plates together into stacks of 50 or more. Four stacks make a unit. The stacks are compressed in turn. At any given moment, one stack is being compressed, one released, one pre-heated and one pre-cooled. To cool a room involves passing one hot circuit and one cold circuit of the heat-carrying fluid or gas through this four-stack unit.” This method of cooling is not only more environmentally friendly than an HFC set-up, but will also be less expensive to buy and 30% — 40% cheaper to run. It will be lighter and smaller, too. As for reliability, the prototype’s performance suggests the unit could operate for more than 40 years without a problem. Development is still continuing, but products may be only a few years away. Exergyn has also begun talks with carmakers and aerospace companies about setting up joint-development projects. With cars and some small aircraft going electric, it is not just cooling the cabin that manufacturers have to think about, but also cooling the batteries. 12. Why did Exergyn develop a new type of air conditioning? A. Because HFCs are harmful to the atmosphere. B. Because traditional air conditioners are too expensive to run. C. Because nitinol is easier to get than HFCs in the market. D. Because researchers forced the company to do so. 13. Which aspect of Exergyn’s new air conditioning system is mainly described in paragraph 3? A. Its costs. B. Its designer. C. Its advantage. D. Its working process. 14. What will Exergyn do next? A. It is likely to expand its business. B. It will shift its focus to battery production. C. It plans to greatly increase its advertising spend. D. It will set up a company to produce vehicles. 15. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Air Conditioners: A Method of Cooling B. Nitinol: A Cooler Alternative C. Exergyn: A New Company D. CO2 and HFCs: Potential Crises 第二节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5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。 Although driving your car is likely second nature, a successful road trip is more than just shifting your vehicle to “drive”. ____16____ Luckily, we have all the keys you need for a great one.

After trying for the third time, Alexis shook her head sadly. There was no way she would win the Golden Potato again because Grandpa wasn’t here this year. Memories of how Grandpa taught her to make potato rose in her mind. She sighed and missed Grandpa so much. Alexis cut the potatoes and mixed the boiled potatoes, some sauces and a little salt and peppers in a bowl. But it didn’t taste right. Alexis tried a bite of the salad mixture, wondering what was missing. Seeing her frown, Mom suggested, “What about something spicy? Your Grandpa loved spicy things.” “You’re right! Maybe he put a jalapeno pepper in it,” Alexis said, cutting up a bright green jalapeno and adding it to the bowl. It was closer, but it still didn’t taste right. Alexis was drooping her head, disappointed. “Should we look in a cookbook?” “Grandpa was never one to follow a recipe,” Dad entered the kitchen and said. It was true. People loved Grandpa’s potato salad because it was one of a kind. Alexis remembered posing with Grandpa for a photo while they were making the salad. Photo! That gave her an idea. Alexis hurried to the bookcase and found an old photo album. She immediately flipped it open, expecting to find clues in the photos there. Lots of photos showed Grandpa and Grandma cooking together. Dad laughed, “He and Grandma loved to tease each other but he always called her Honey.” “Do you think he put honey in the potato salad?” Mum asked. “It is worth a try,” said Alexis. She stirred some honey into the bowl. But it still wasn’t quite right. Alexis’ heart sank, on the verge of giving up. Dad kept flipping the album. At the end of the album was the picture of Grandpa and Alexis making the salad together. 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。 It looked like Grandpa was crying in the photo. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With hesitation, the family tasted the potato salad with onions in it. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025～2026学年度第一学期期末质量检测 高二英语试题 注意事项： 1．本试卷共10页，满分120分，时间100分钟。 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名和准考证号填写在答题卡上。 3．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。涂写在本试卷上无效。 4．作答非选择题时，将答案书写在答题卡上，书写在本试卷上无效。 5．考试结束后，监考员将答题卡按顺序收回，装袋整理；试卷不回收。 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段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1．What is the woman looking for?

Dad Bill explained that every school break, they would try to visit parks. Along the way, the family made some sacrifices (牺牲): from eating bread out of a cooler the back of the car to staying in economical accommodations. Bill credits his wife, Alisa, with managing the budget and keeping costs down. Her advice for others starting their own national park adventures is to begin with parks that are nearby and gradually explore farther. The Goldsteins often visited several parks on one trip, including 11 parks during the summer after their first visit to Yosemite. The family didn’t need fancy equipment — just the basics like sun protection, first aid, and plenty of water. One of the most dangerous things they faced was dehydration. Luke remembered running out of water 10 miles from the end of a hike at Theodore Roosevelt National Park. They had to depend on patience, faith, and determination to make it back. A key part of their experience was the Junior ranger Program, which is available at nearly every national park. Kids are invited to complete a list of educational activities to earn a junior ranger badge (徽章), which helps them connect with and understand the park. Initially, Luke thought being without phone service and away from friends was the worst part. He often complained about tough hikes. But looking back, he realized how the journey shaped him, making him more responsible and appreciative of both his family and nature. Today, the Goldsteins continue visiting national parks, which continues to teach them the value of determination, family connections, and appreciation of the natural world. 4. What is Alisa Goldstein’s advice for others who will start the national park adventures? A. Only visiting a park with family at a time. B. Finding a professional guide during each adventure. C. Seeking expert financial advice before the adventures. D. Starting with near parks and exploring farther gradually. 5. How can the kids get the junior ranger badge? A. By finishing educational activities. B. By hiking 10 miles in the park. C. By managing the travel budget. D. By visiting all national parks. 6. What is Luke’s attitude towards the trips now? A. Opposed. B. Grateful. C. Doubtful. D. Unknown. 7. Where can you read the passage? A. In a fashion magazine. B. In a science textbook. C. In a travel magazine. D. In a sports newspaper. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Goldstein一家花六年时间带孩子游览所有国家公园的经历及收获。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Bill credits his wife, Alisa, with managing the budget and keeping costs down. Her advice for others starting their own national park adventures is to begin with parks that are nearby and gradually explore farther. (Bill把功劳归于妻子Alisa，是她负责预算、控制开支。她给其他想开启国家公园之旅的人的建议是：先从附近的公园开始，再慢慢去更远的地方。)”可知，Alisa Goldstein的建议是从附近的公园开始，再慢慢探索更远的地方。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Kids are invited to complete a list of educational activities to earn a junior ranger badge (徽章), which helps them connect with and understand the park.(孩子们需要完成一系列教育活动，以此获得少年护林员徽章，这能帮助他们亲近并了解公园。)”可知，孩子们通过完成教育活动来获得少年护林员徽章。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第五段“But looking back, he realized how the journey shaped him, making him more responsible and appreciative of both his family and nature.(但回头看，他意识到这段旅程塑造了自己，让他更有责任感，也更珍惜家人和自然。)”可知，Luke现在对这段旅行心怀感激。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Many travelers have toyed with the idea of visiting each national park, but the Goldsteins from Charlotte, North Carolina, made it a reality before their two kids, Luke and Winston, turned 18. They spent six years completing their journey.(许多旅行者都曾萌生过游览所有国家公园的想法，但来自北卡罗来纳州夏洛特市的Goldstein一家，在两个孩子Luke和Winston 18岁之前，把这个想法变成了现实。他们花了六年时间完成了这段旅程。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了Goldstein一家花六年时间带孩子游览所有国家公园的经历及收获。由此可推测，这篇文章最可能出现在旅游杂志上。故选C。 C Communication is more than just words. In fact, studies show that when meeting a stranger, only 7% of the impression we make comes from our actual words. Our tone of voice contributes 38%, and a huge 55% comes from body language— the unspoken signals we send through gestures, postures, and facial expressions. This silent language often reveals our true feelings, even when our words say something different. Take hand gestures as an example. A salesman might notice a customer resting their hand on their chin during a presentation. This gesture usually betokens disinterest, telling the salesman that the customer is not engaged. On the other hand, open palms are often a sign of honesty and openness across many cultures. Eye contact is another powerful part of body language. When someone looks at you with dilated pupils (瞳孔), it often means they are interested in what you’re saying. But if their pupils shrink (缩小) and their gaze feels sharp, they might be feeling unfriendly or challenging you. However, the rules change with culture; in some Asian countries, avoiding direct eye contact shows respect, while in Western cultures, it can seem rude or untrustworthy. Facial expressions, especially smiles, are also key. A genuine smile involves not just the mouth but also the eyes, creating “crow’s feet” around them. Fake smiles, by contrast, only use the mouth muscles. But even smiles have cultural differences. In some countries, a smile might hide embarrassment, not just happiness. Experts suggest a technique called “mirroring” to build connection. This means gently copying the other person’s body language—like leaning forward if they do, or using similar gestures. The key is to do it naturally; forced mirroring can feel insincere. Body language is a skill we can learn. By understanding these silent signals, we can communicate more effectively and build better relationships with others. 8. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To lead into the main topic of body language. B. To show the results of a study on communication. C. To explain the differences between words and tones. D. To describe how to make a good impression on strangers. 9. What does the underlined word “betokens” probably mean in paragraph 2? A. Advocates. B. Inquires. C. Indicates. D. Consumes. 10. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The importance of body language in an interview. B. Differences in using eye contact in Asian countries. C. How to make a good impression through eye contact. D. Eye contact serving as a key element of body language. 11. What can be known from the last two paragraphs? A. Body language can be very difficult to master. B. Mirroring must be done naturally to work well. C. Mirroring is the best way to build connection with others. D. It’s not essential to understand silent signals for most people. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是肢体语言在沟通中的重要性及其作用。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Our tone of voice contributes 38%, and a huge 55% comes from body language— the unspoken signals we send through gestures, postures, and facial expressions. This silent language often reveals our true feelings, even when our words say something different.(38%来自我们的语气，而高达55%则来自肢体语言——即我们通过手势、姿势和面部表情传递的无声信号。这种无声的语言往往能揭示我们的真实感受，即便言语表达的内容有所不同。)”可知，第一段的作用是引出肢体语言这一主题。故选A。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“telling the salesman that the customer is not engaged(向销售员表明顾客并未投入其中)”和“disinterest(无兴趣)”可知，有顾客将手托在下巴上，这一手势通常意味着不感兴趣，betokens的意思是“表示”，和indicates意思相近。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Eye contact is another powerful part of body language. When someone looks at you with dilated pupils (瞳孔), it often means they are interested in what you’re saying. But if their pupils shrink (缩小) and their gaze feels sharp, they might be feeling unfriendly or challenging you. However, the rules change with culture; in some Asian countries, avoiding direct eye contact shows respect, while in Western cultures, it can seem rude or untrustworthy.(眼神交流也是肢体语言中极为重要的一部分。当某人用扩张的瞳孔注视你时，往往意味着他们对你说的话感兴趣。但如果他们的瞳孔缩小，且目光锐利，那么他们可能感到不友好或在挑战你。然而，这些规则会因文化而异；在一些亚洲国家，避免直视对方表示尊重，而在西方文化中，这可能被视为粗鲁或不可信。)”可知，第三段主要讲的是眼神交流是肢体语言的关键要素。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Experts suggest a technique called “mirroring” to build connection.(专家建议采用一种称为“模仿”的技巧来建立联系。)”和“The key is to do it naturally; forced mirroring can feel insincere.(关键是要做得自然；刻意的模仿会让人感觉不真诚。)”可知，模仿必须自然进行才能有效。故选B。 D Most air conditioners use refrigerant gases called HFCs (氢氟碳化合物), which are hundreds of times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than CO2. Researchers have long sought ways to produce cooling systems that do without these troublesome gases. Now Exergyn, a Dublin-based company, claims to have developed a new type of air conditioning which avoids using HFCs. Exergyn’s system uses nitinol, a shape-memory alloy (合金) of nickel and titanium. All shape-memory alloys release heat when compressed (压缩), and then absorb it when the pressure is released and they return to their original shape. But Exergyn’s version of nitinol displays this quality to a remarkable degree. For its experimental model, the company produced 4cm2 plates of the alloy, each with holes to permit the passage of a heat-carrying liquid or gas. A range of eco-friendly substances such as water, salty water and air can be employed in that role, thus avoiding the use of HFCs. Kevin O’Toole, Exergyn’s managing director, explains, “To build a refrigerator involves fitting these plates together into stacks of 50 or more. Four stacks make a unit. The stacks are compressed in turn. At any given moment, one stack is being compressed, one released, one pre-heated and one pre-cooled. To cool a room involves passing one hot circuit and one cold circuit of the heat-carrying fluid or gas through this four-stack unit.” This method of cooling is not only more environmentally friendly than an HFC set-up, but will also be less expensive to buy and 30% — 40% cheaper to run. It will be lighter and smaller, too. As for reliability, the prototype’s performance suggests the unit could operate for more than 40 years without a problem. Development is still continuing, but products may be only a few years away. Exergyn has also begun talks with carmakers and aerospace companies about setting up joint-development projects. With cars and some small aircraft going electric, it is not just cooling the cabin that manufacturers have to think about, but also cooling the batteries. 12. Why did Exergyn develop a new type of air conditioning? A. Because HFCs are harmful to the atmosphere. B. Because traditional air conditioners are too expensive to run. C. Because nitinol is easier to get than HFCs in the market. D. Because researchers forced the company to do so. 13. Which aspect of Exergyn’s new air conditioning system is mainly described in paragraph 3? A. Its costs. B. Its designer. C. Its advantage. D. Its working process. 14. What will Exergyn do next? A. It is likely to expand its business. B. It will shift its focus to battery production. C. It plans to greatly increase its advertising spend. D. It will set up a company to produce vehicles. 15. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Air Conditioners: A Method of Cooling B. Nitinol: A Cooler Alternative C. Exergyn: A New Company D. CO2 and HFCs: Potential Crises 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了都柏林公司Exergyn研发的一种新型空调系统，该系统使用镍钛形状记忆合金替代传统制冷剂HFCs，既环保又高效，并展望了其在汽车、航空等领域的应用前景。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Most air conditioners use refrigerant gases called HFCs (氢氟碳化合物), which are hundreds of times more effective at trapping heat in the atmosphere than CO₂. Researchers have long sought ways to produce cooling systems that do without these troublesome gases.(大多数空调使用被称为氢氟碳化合物（HFCs）的制冷剂气体，它们在大气中捕获热量的能力是二氧化碳的数百倍。长期以来，研究人员一直在寻找无需使用这些麻烦气体的制冷系统。)”可知，Exergyn研发新型空调是因为HFCs对大气有害。故选A。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Kevin O’Toole, Exergyn’s managing director, explains, “To build a refrigerator involves fitting these plates together into stacks of 50 or more. Four stacks make a unit. The stacks are compressed in turn. At any given moment, one stack is being compressed, one released, one pre-heated and one pre-cooled. To cool a room involves passing one hot circuit and one cold circuit of the heat-carrying fluid or gas through this four-stack unit.”(Kevin O’Toole，Exergyn的总经理，解释道：“要制造一台冰箱，需要将这些合金片组装成50片或更多片的堆叠组。四个堆叠组构成一个单元。这些堆叠组会依次被压缩。在任何时刻，一个堆叠组处于被压缩状态，一个处于释放状态，一个处于预热状态，还有一个处于预冷状态。给房间降温需要让载热流体或气体的一个热回路和一个冷回路通过这个四堆叠组单元。”)”可知，第三段主要描述了该空调系统的工作过程。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Exergyn has also begun talks with carmakers and aerospace companies about setting up joint-development projects. With cars and some small aircraft going electric, it is not just cooling the cabin that manufacturers have to think about, but also cooling the batteries.(Exergyn还开始与汽车制造商和航空航天公司洽谈，计划建立联合开发项目。随着汽车和一些小型飞机实现电动化，制造商不仅要考虑冷却座舱，还要考虑冷却电池。)”可知，Exergyn下一步很可能会拓展其业务领域。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Exergyn’s system uses nitinol, a shape-memory alloy (合金) of nickel and titanium. All shape-memory alloys release heat when compressed (压缩), and then absorb it when the pressure is released and they return to their original shape.(Exergyn的系统使用镍钛诺，一种镍和钛的形状记忆合金。所有形状记忆合金在被压缩时释放热量，然后在压力释放并恢复到原始形状时吸收热量。)”以及第四段“This method of cooling is not only more environmentally friendly than an HFC set-up, but will also be less expensive to buy and 30% — 40% cheaper to run.(这种冷却方法不仅比HFC装置更环保，而且购买成本更低，运行成本也低30%至40%。)”可知，文章核心是介绍Exergyn公司利用镍钛合金（nitinol）研发出一种新型环保空调，替代了传统的HFCs制冷剂。因此，“Nitinol: A Cooler Alternative(镍钛合金：一种更环保的制冷选择)”最能概括全文内容。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5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。 Although driving your car is likely second nature, a successful road trip is more than just shifting your vehicle to “drive”. ____16____ Luckily, we have all the keys you need for a great one.

After trying for the third time, Alexis shook her head sadly. There was no way she would win the Golden Potato again because Grandpa wasn’t here this year. Memories of how Grandpa taught her to make potato rose in her mind. She sighed and missed Grandpa so much. Alexis cut the potatoes and mixed the boiled potatoes, some sauces and a little salt and peppers in a bowl. But it didn’t taste right. Alexis tried a bite of the salad mixture, wondering what was missing. Seeing her frown, Mom suggested, “What about something spicy? Your Grandpa loved spicy things.” “You’re right! Maybe he put a jalapeno pepper in it,” Alexis said, cutting up a bright green jalapeno and adding it to the bowl. It was closer, but it still didn’t taste right. Alexis was drooping her head, disappointed. “Should we look in a cookbook?” “Grandpa was never one to follow a recipe,” Dad entered the kitchen and said. It was true. People loved Grandpa’s potato salad because it was one of a kind. Alexis remembered posing with Grandpa for a photo while they were making the salad. Photo! That gave her an idea. Alexis hurried to the bookcase and found an old photo album. She immediately flipped it open, expecting to find clues in the photos there. Lots of photos showed Grandpa and Grandma cooking together. Dad laughed, “He and Grandma loved to tease each other but he always called her Honey.” “Do you think he put honey in the potato salad?” Mum asked. “It is worth a try,” said Alexis. She stirred some honey into the bowl. But it still wasn’t quite right. Alexis’ heart sank, on the verge of giving up. Dad kept flipping the album. At the end of the album was the picture of Grandpa and Alexis making the salad together. 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。 It looked like Grandpa was crying in the photo. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With hesitation, the family tasted the potato salad with onions in it. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 It looked like Grandpa was crying in the photo. Crying! Yes, the secret was about crying! Grandpa once said with wet eyes that the potato salad definitely brought tears to his eyes. It seemed that Alexis found out the final secret ingredient. Full of hope in her eyes, she quickly rushed to the cabinet and grabbed an onion. Then, delighted and expected, she cut the onion with tears in her eyes. Finally, adding the onions into the salad and mixed it, Alexis’s palms getting sweaty. Heart raising, she held the salad to her family and waited for their try. With hesitation, the family tasted the potato salad with onions in it. Nodding their heads at the same time, smile flickered across everyone’s face. They eventually figured out Grandpa’s recipe. Finally, Alexis completed the salad and took part in the contest. As the result that Alexis’s potato salad won was announced, Alexis was thinking about Grandpa, her tears welling up uncontrollably. She hugged the Golden Potato to her chest and wore a shining smile, saying “Just because of the onions.” It’s not only a recipe for delicious food but also a recipe for a happy family. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alexis参加一年一度的土豆沙拉大赛，却始终无法做出爷爷的味道。她从照片中得到线索，发现了爷爷制作土豆沙拉的秘诀，最终完成了沙拉并获胜。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“照片里爷爷好像在哭。”可知，第一段可描写Alexis发现了爷爷菜谱的秘密，并让家人品尝重新做好的沙拉。 ②由第二段首句内容“一家人犹豫了一下，尝了尝土豆沙拉里的洋葱。”可知，第二段可描写制作成功，赢得比赛和Alexis感悟。 2.续写线索：发现线索——完成沙拉——家人品尝——比赛获胜——Alexis感到快乐——Alexis感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 发现：find out/discover 急忙：rush to/hurry to 充满：be full of /be filled with 情绪类 美味的：delicious/tasty 快乐的：happy/joyful 【点睛】[高分句型1] Finally, adding the onions into the salad and mixed it, Alexis’s palms getting sweaty.
