A
(2025·江苏省海安高级中学高二下月考)
For eight years,Sophie created realistic-looking limbs (肢)for those who wanted to fit in.But she longed to work on more odd designs that would stand out.Then she met Pollyanna Hope,a young amputee (被截肢者).
“She wanted something a little different on her leg:pictures of a cartoon she loved, Peppa Pig,” said Sophie,who is now based in London.So she designed a unique leg covered in tattoo-like images of Peppa and other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream.Working with Hope made Sophie realize there was a potential market for limbs.
Since then,Sophie founded the Alternative Limb Project (ALP)to make artistic limbs.Her work includes an arm wrapped in sculpted snakes and a leg that looks like porcelain (瓷器)covered in a painted flowery vine.She makes about six limbs per year,always including clients’ ideas so that they receive a personal piece they can celebrate rather than hide.
Of course,a fancy-looking limb won’t suit everyone.For Sophie,the basis is that each limb must satisfy a combination of comfort,beauty and functionality,and pushing too hard in one direction can weaken other areas.But for amputees who appreciate novelty,Sophie has some amazing ideas.
“I’d really like to make a candy-dispenser leg with colorful candies inside it,” she says.“Or a cuckoo-clock leg with a wooden bird that pops out every hour.” Her goal is to fashion a striking limb.
“It’ll transform the limbs from an elephant in the room into a conversation piece.”
1.Why did Pollyanna Hope come to Sophie?
A.She hoped to have a tailored limb.
B.She intended to design a cartoon figure.
C.She longed to expand the market for limbs.
D.She expected to sell Sophie some odd ideas.
2.According to Paragraph 3,ALP aims to .
A.boost users’ confidence
B.sharpen users’ creativity
C.improve Sophie’s sculpture skills
D.extend Sophie’s art business
3.What is the basis for Sophie’s works?
A.The novelty of the pattern tops the list.
B.The balance of multi-needs comes first.
C.Fashion is the best policy.
D.Functionality is the key.
4.What can be inferred from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
A.Sophie resolves to lead the fashion of limbs.
B.Sophie plans to further transform artistic limbs.
C.Amputees will feel at ease to talk about limbs.
D.Amputees will have easy access to artistic limbs.
语篇解读 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Sophie为被截肢者设计独特假肢的经历和想法,展示了她的设计理念和对被截肢者需求的关注。
1.答案:A
解析:细节理解题。根据文章第二段“‘She wanted something a little different on her leg...other pigs riding a bicycle and eating ice cream.”可知,Pollyanna Hope来找Sophie的原因是希望有一个定制的假肢。故选A。

解析:细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容可知,Sophie创立“ALP”是为了让客户有一件可以庆祝而不是隐藏的假肢,也就是为了提升用户的自信心。故选A。
3.答案:B

4.答案:C
解析:推理判断题。在英文中“an elephant in the room”比喻一些非常显而易见的,可是却一直被忽略的棘手问题。由此可知,这句话的意思指的是“将假肢的事变成日常话题”,也就是说Sophie希望被截肢者能够轻松地谈论假肢。故选C。

(2025·吉林省洮南市第一中学高二下月考)
Lena is a psychologist (心理医生)working in a high school.She is devoted to helping students who are struggling with mental health issues.Her days are filled with counseling (咨询)sessions and organizing workshops to educate students about mental health.One day,a student named Sarah came to Lena for help.Sarah had been feeling anxious about her schoolwork.
Lena listened carefully to Sarah’s concerns and asked her questions to better understand her situation.Lena then developed a personalized plan for Sarah,including relaxation techniques,time management strategies,and a referral to a support group.

Lena’s work doesn’t stop at the school gates.Beyond the school,Lena leads community activities.She organizes monthly “Mind Matters” talks at the local library,where she explains mental health through easy-to-understand stories and fun activities.During lockdowns,her online support groups became really important connections for lonely teens,making her known as a kind guide who links adolescents and the resources they can get.
What makes Lena do all this? Memories of her brother having a hard time with depression without saying anything,a personal experience of feeling really tired during training that taught her how important it is to take care of herself,and the many moments when students get their confidence back.To her,every counseling session gives a chance to change how society thinks turning silent struggles into open talks and helping those facing life’s challenges become stronger.She believes that by raising awareness and breaking down shame,she can help create a more supportive and understanding environment for everyone.

(2025·河北省石家庄第二实验中学高二下月考)
Maybe you’re a young scientist wanting to make an influence on the world,or a more seasoned veteran of scientific study who is curious about how to get better at your job.Either way,there are several key steps to developing your ability to make positive contributions to the world.
Experiment with new ideas.An important part of scientific discovery is the result of hard work and luck.Luck has frequently played a large role in scientific discovery. 1 You never know when experimentation and luck will collide (碰撞)to create an important discovery.
Be open to failure.You may think a scientist should be smart,skilled in mathematics,and precise. 2 Being a scientist is 90% failure and 10% success.
Take charge of your ideas.Challenge yourself to come up with one idea related to your project a day. 3 As a scientist in a competitive field,you need to create your own opportunities by owning your ideas and working hard to develop them further.
Practice your writing skills. 4 Try to do a little writing every day,and put your ideas or thoughts down on the page so you get into the habit of recording your ideas,which could later end up in a published paper or in a lecture about your latest scientific theory.
5 Though hard work is necessary to being a good scientist,it’s important to strike a balance between professional work and personal downtime.Don’t let yourself get burnt out.
A.Keep a balance between hard work and rest.
B.So,don’t be afraid to play around with new ideas.
C.You will do better work if you work with someone else.
D.Create a writing process that works for you and stick to it.
E.You should be open to the solutions made by others in the field.
F.Though some of them will be bad,many could lead to a new experiment or theory.
G.However,an important quality a good scientist should have is a willingness to fail.
