B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了美国今年即将举办的四个艺术展览的相关信息。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据“What Stands behind the Flowers”部分中的“Hilma af Klint once wrote, “I have shown that there is a connection between the plant world and the world of the soul.” An upcoming MoMA exhibition focuses on a newly discovered series of plant based art by the pioneering abstract artist.(希尔玛·阿夫·克林特曾写道：“我已经表明植物世界与灵魂世界之间存在联系”一场即将在现代艺术博物馆举办的展览聚焦于这位先锋抽象艺术家新发现的一系列以植物为基础的艺术作品)”以及“The Soul of Nature”部分中的“Friedrich’s work explored the relationship between the natural world and the inner self.(弗里德里希的作品探索了自然世界与内心自我之间的关系)”可知，前两个展览都探索了自然这一主题。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据各展览的时间信息，“The Roulin Family Portraits”是“31 January-4 May (1月31日—5月4日)”，“The Soul of Nature”是“8 February-11 May (2月8日—5月11日)”，“What Stands behind the Flowers”是“11 May-27 September (5月11日—9月27日)”，“Impressionism at the Table”是“30 March-7 September (3月30日—9月7日)”，对比可知“The Roulin Family Portraits”开始时间最早。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Impressionism at the Table”部分中的“France has long been famous for both its food and its art. This exhibition explores the relationship between the two.(法国长期以来因其美食和艺术而闻名。这个展览探索两者之间的关系)”可知，“Impressionism at the Table”展览是关于食物与艺术之间的联系。故选B项。 B On October 1, the world said goodbye to Jane Goodall, a British chimpanzee (黑猩猩) expert who died at the age of 91. Goodall studied chimpanzees at the Gombe Stream Game Reserve — now a national park — in Tanzania in 1960. She had not been trained as a scientist, but many believe that this was one of her greatest strengths because it meant she was not influenced by everyone else’s thoughts about chimps. Chimpanzees are humans’ closest living relatives, and Goodall’s research showed their social behaviour to be complex and highly developed. Goodall discovered that chimpanzees not only used tools but also made them. She observed chimps “fishing” for tasty insect snacks by sticking a long piece of grass into the nest. When the straw became bent at the end, the animal broke it off to keep the tool useful. Goodall also gave the chimps names and noticed that the animals had strong family bonds and emotions. “It isn’t only human beings who have personality, who are capable of logical thought and emotions like joy and sorrow,” she said in a 1996 PBS documentary. She also discovered that wild chimps hunt and kill for meat. In 1977 she founded the Jane Goodall Institute, which manages the Gombe Stream Research Centre and has become a global organization for animals, people and the environment. One of its projects is the Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Centre in the Republic of the Congo, which helps chimps that have been hurt or have lost their parents. Professor Cat Hobaiter, a chimp expert from the University of St Andrews, told the BBC, “Jane would be the first person to tell us that what the world needs right now is not sadness over her loss, but to get to work.” 4. What was Goodall’s advantage in studying chimps? A. She learned from experts. B. She received systematic training. C. She had independent views on chimps. D. She analyzed others’ thoughts about chimps. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Chimpanzees’ ability to make tools. B. Goodall’s findings about chimpanzees. C. Chimpanzees’ bonds with family members. D. Goodall’s comments on chimpanzees’ behavior. 6. What does Cat Hobaiter suggest? A. Working in the wild. B. Continuing Goodall’s mission. C. Finding out the world’s needs. D. Expressing sadness over Goodall’s loss. 7. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall? A. Pioneering and devoted. B. Polite and talented. C. Humorous and generous. D. Modest and cautious. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了英国黑猩猩专家简·古道尔的生平事迹，包括她研究黑猩猩的优势、取得的研究成果，以及她创立的相关机构，最后提及他人对她的评价及建议。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“She had not been trained as a scientist, but many believe that this was one of her greatest strengths because it meant she was not influenced by everyone else’s thoughts about chimps.(她没有接受过科学家的专业训练，但许多人认为这是她最大的优势之一，因为这意味着她不受其他人对黑猩猩看法的影响)”可知，古道尔在研究黑猩猩方面的优势是她对黑猩猩有独立的见解，故选C项。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Chimpanzees are humans’ closest living relatives, and Goodall’s research showed their social behaviour to be complex and highly developed. Goodall discovered that chimpanzees not only used tools but also made them. She observed chimps “fishing” for tasty insect snacks by sticking a long piece of grass into the nest. When the straw became bent at the end, the animal broke it off to keep the tool useful. Goodall also gave the chimps names and noticed that the animals had strong family bonds and emotions.(黑猩猩是人类现存亲缘关系最近的动物，古道尔的研究表明，它们的社会行为复杂且高度发达。古道尔发现，黑猩猩不仅会使用工具，还会制造工具。她观察到黑猩猩会把一根长长的草伸进蚁穴，去“钓”美味的昆虫小吃。当草秆末端变弯时，黑猩猩就把弯掉的部分折断，让工具继续好用。古道尔还会给黑猩猩取名，并发现这些动物有着牢固的家庭纽带和丰富的情感)”可知，第二段主要讲的是古道尔关于黑猩猩的发现，故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Professor Cat Hobaiter, a chimp expert from the University of St Andrews, told the BBC, “Jane would be the first person to tell us that what the world needs right now is not sadness over her loss, but to get to work.”(圣安德鲁斯大学的黑猩猩专家卡特·霍比特教授告诉BBC：“简会是第一个告诉我们，如今世界需要的不是为她的离去而悲伤，而是要付诸行动的人”)”可知，卡特·霍比特暗示要继续简·古道尔的使命，故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。从第一段 “She had not been trained as a scientist, but many believe that this was one of her greatest strengths because it meant she was not influenced by everyone else’s thoughts about chimps.(她没有接受过科学家的专业训练，但许多人认为这是她最大的优势之一，因为这意味着她不受其他人对黑猩猩看法的影响)” 可以看出，她以非专业科学家身份开启黑猩猩研究，具有开创性；再根据第三段 “In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute, which manages the Gombe Stream Research Centre and has become a global organization for animals, people and the environment.(1977 年，她创立了简・古道尔研究所，该研究所管理着贡贝溪研究中心，并已成为一个致力于动物、人类与环境的全球性组织)” 可知，她一生致力于黑猩猩研究及相关保护工作，极具奉献精神。所以“Pioneering and devoted (开拓性且有奉献精神的)”最能描述她，选A项。 C Named after American doctor George Huntington, who first described it 150 years ago, Huntington’s disease (HD) affects around 41,000 people in the U. S. alone, with over 200,000 more at risk. It is caused by a faulty Huntington gene, which makes a toxic protein that slowly damages the brain. For decades, Huntington’s disease has been a silent thief — robbing people of their ability to move, think, and connect with others, with no cure in sight. But a breakthrough from a Dutch team and the company uniQure is changing that story, offering the first therapy that can slow the disease’s cruel progression. Now the gene therapy AMT-130 is turning hope into reality. In a 3-year study,29 patients received a single dose of the treatment during a 12-to-18-hour surgery, in which the therapy was injected directly into the brain. The treatment delivers a small piece of DNA that blocks the faulty gene from making the harmful protein. The results were remarkable: patients who got the high dose saw their disease progress 75% more slowly than those in an untreated control group. Tests showed their ability to think, walk, and control movements stayed far more stable. “This result changes everything,” said study author Ed Wild. While the therapy is still being reviewed for safety, uniQure hopes to get approval for wider use soon. Experts note that AMT-130 is not a cure, and the surgery is complex — plus, its high cost may limit access at first. Even so, it marks a turning point. For the HD community, this is more than a medical win. It is proof that science can outpace even the most stubborn diseases, giving families a chance to hold onto more time together. As researcher Marc Dantzer once said of similar breakthroughs, such treatments could become “powerful” tools in fighting illnesses that once seemed unbeatable. 8. What do we know about Huntington’s disease according to paragraph 1? A. It was discovered and named by a Dutch researcher. B. It has had effective treatments available for decades. C. It has a direct impact on about 41,000 people worldwide. D. It is caused by a faulty gene that produces a harmful protein. 9. What is the primary function of the gene therapy AMT-130? A. To repair the damaged brain tissues. B. To replace the faulty Huntington gene entirely. C. To block harmful protein production with DNA. D. To stimulate the brain to produce healthier proteins. 10. Why is AMT-130 regarded as a promising treatment? A. It is widely used. B. It cures a stubborn disease. C. It reduces the cost of surgery. D. It proves scientific advancement. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Stubborn Disease: History and Symptoms of HD B. A Complex Surgery: The Future of Brain Treatments C. Gene Therapy Breakthrough: Slowing Huntington’s Disease D. Affordable Medical Treatments: The Development Challenge 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了亨廷顿舞蹈症（HD）的相关信息，包括其命名由来、发病原因及现状，着重阐述了基因疗法AMT-130取得的突破，有望减缓该疾病的进展。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“It is caused by a faulty Huntington gene, which makes a toxic protein that slowly damages the brain.(它是由一种有缺陷的亨廷顿基因引起的，这种基因会产生一种有毒蛋白质，慢慢地损害大脑)”可知，亨廷顿舞蹈症是由产生有害蛋白质的缺陷基因引起的，故选D项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The treatment delivers a small piece of DNA that blocks the faulty gene from making the harmful protein.(这种治疗方法输送一小段DNA，阻止有缺陷的基因产生有害蛋白质)”可知，基因疗法AMT-130的主要功能是用DNA阻止有害蛋白质的产生，故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Even so, it marks a turning point. For the HD community, this is more than a medical win. It is proof that science can outpace even the most stubborn diseases(即便如此，它标志着一个转折点。对于亨廷顿舞蹈症群体来说，这不仅仅是医学上的胜利。这证明了科学甚至可以超越最难攻克的疾病)”可知，AMT-130被认为是一种有前景的治疗方法，是因为它证明了科学的进步，故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Named after American doctor George Huntington, who first described it 150 years ago, Huntington’s disease (HD) affects around 41,000 people in the U. S. alone, with over 200,000 more at risk.(亨廷顿舞蹈症（HD）以150年前首次描述该病症的美国医生乔治・亨廷顿的名字命名。仅在美国，就有约4.1万人患病，超过20万人处于患病风险中)”以及第二段“Now, the gene therapy AMT-130 is turning hope into reality.(如今，基因疗法AMT‑130正将希望变为现实)”文章开篇介绍亨廷顿舞蹈症的基本情况，接着重点讲述基因疗法AMT-130在减缓该疾病进展方面取得的突破，C选项“Gene Therapy Breakthrough: Slowing Huntington’s Disease（基因疗法突破：减缓亨廷顿舞蹈症）”最能概括文章主旨，故选C项。 D A report from Ember, a research group, found that in the first half of 2025, renewable energy produced more electricity than coal did across the world. Renewable energy comes from natural sources that don’t run out, such as the Sun or wind. Coal has been the main way to make electricity on Earth for more than 100 years. Formed over millions of years from dead plant matter, the black lump is burned in power stations to heat water and create steam. This turns structures called turbines (涡轮机), and the energy from the movement is turned into electricity. When coal is burned, it releases gases including carbon dioxide, which contributes to climate change. Scientists say humans must reduce their use of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, in order to stop climate change from getting worse. One step people are taking is using electric vehicles instead of cars fueled by gas. But if the electricity used to charge the vehicles is still generated from coal, it will not be beneficial to the planet. The first half of 2025 marked a milestone in global energy: renewable sources accounted for 34.3% of electricity generation, exceeding coal at 33.1%. This change was primarily driven by reduced coal use in China and India, the world’s top electricity consumers. Critically, this development contributed to a 4.5% drop in power sector carbon emissions globally, showing its environmental impact. The growth was led by a rapid growth in solar and wind, which together supplied a record 18.2% of global electricity, with China alone accounting for over half of the new solar capacity. “We are seeing the first signs of a crucial shift,” said Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka from Ember. “Solar and wind are now growing fast enough to meet the world’s growing appetite for electricity.” 12. What do the underlined words “the black lump” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. Solid coal. B. Dead plant matter. C. Power from turbines. D. Energy from the movement. 13. Why do scientists suggest reducing the use of fossil fuels? A. To make electric vehicles more popular. B. To lower the cost of generating electricity. C. To prevent the worsening of climate change. D. To better study the effects of carbon dioxide. 14. How does the author support the main argument in paragraph 3? A. By sharing personal stories. B. By detailing new technologies. C. By quoting leading energy experts. D. By listing key data and national cases. 15. What is the main message conveyed by Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka? A. Global electricity demand is expected to decline soon. B. The transition to renewable energy is becoming a reality. C. Coal will remain the dominant energy source for decades. D. Renewable energy is insufficient for future electricity needs. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究小组Ember的报告显示，2025年上半年全球可再生能源发电量首次超过煤炭发电量，阐述了煤炭发电原理、危害，以及可再生能源发展情况及意义。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“Coal has been the main way to make electricity on Earth for more than 100 years. Formed over millions of years from dead plant matter, the black lump is burned in power stations to heat water and create steam.(100多年来，煤炭一直是地球上发电的主要方式。the black lump由死亡的植物物质经过数百万年形成，在发电站中燃烧以加热水并产生蒸汽)”可知，这里描述的是煤炭的形成及用途，所以“the black lump”指的是固体煤炭，故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Scientists say humans must reduce their use of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, in order to stop climate change from getting worse.(科学家表示，人类必须减少对煤炭、石油和天然气等化石燃料的使用，以阻止气候变化恶化)”可知，科学家建议减少使用化石燃料是为了防止气候变化加剧，故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The first half of 2025 marked a milestone in global energy: renewable sources accounted for 34.3% of electricity generation, exceeding coal at 33.1%. This change was primarily driven by reduced coal use in China and India, the world’s top electricity consumers.

For weeks, Aubree had been asking for one thing only for her birthday: a “real piano keyboard”, not just some small one made for little kids. Now that Aubree was asleep, Shumaker pulled the box from its hiding spot in their home, ready to reveal the 61-key keyboard with full-size keys — perfect for serious beginners like Aubree. Shumaker figured she’d put together the stand（支架）and bench, and set it all up so it would be ready to play when Aubree woke up and discovered her surprise. But when she opened the box, only the stand and bench were inside. No keyboard. Panic overtook her as she realized what she hadn’t noticed before: The keyboard was sold separately. The night before, mother and daughter had a bedtime talk. At one point, Aubree talked about how excited her friend Jimmy was when she received the lovely doll as a birthday present last year. She also talked about her dream of being a pianist in the future. “I wouldn’t let my daughter be disappointed on her birthday,” said Shumaker. What would Aubree think when she came downstairs and found only a bench and stand — no keyboard? There must be some way to fix this, she thought. Maybe an online retailer could deliver a keyboard by morning. Maybe she could go to a store, if one was still open. She looked into both options, but no luck. Now desperate, Shumaker posted in a neighborhood online group and explained the situation. “I’m so heartbroken and afraid that this will ruin her birthday,” she wrote. Andy Spencer, who lives 5 miles from Shumaker, was crawling into bed just before 2 a. m. when he saw her request. “Any parent would be in a panic,” Spencer said. “I don’t want any kid to be disappointed on her birthday.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Spencer thought of his daughter Hailey’s keyboard, which had hardly been played. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Rejecting the money, Spencer said all he wanted was a photo of a happy Aubree on her birthday. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Spencer thought of his daughter Hailey’s keyboard, which had hardly been played. Spencer told the story to Hailey, who was eager to help. Hailey’s keyboard had 61 full-size keys and would fit perfectly on the stand that Shumaker had. So he typed a message to Shumaker and offered to give away their keyboard. Shumaker couldn’t believe how quickly her luck had appeared. “I am so thankful for your generosity,” she texted. Within a few minutes, Spencer brought the keyboard into Shumaker’s home. “How much do you want for it?” Shumaker asked, figuring she’d send him some money. Rejecting the money, Spencer said all he wanted was a photo of a happy Aubree on her birthday. Just a few hours later, Aubree woke up and rushed into the living room. “Mom,” she exclaimed when she saw the keyboard, “This is the best birthday gift I have received!” She immediately began dancing her fingers over the keys, and her face lit up as those first few notes emerged. Later that day, Shumaker messaged Spencer the photo of Aubree playing the piano with a smile on her face and said thanks once again. The whole experience of that night impressed Shumaker with the warmth from strangers. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Marisa Shumaker为4岁女儿Aubree准备生日礼物——一个61键的全尺寸键盘钢琴，然而打开盒子却发现键盘单独售卖，距离女儿生日只有几个小时，她焦急万分，于是在邻里网上小组求助。Andy Spencer看到了她的请求。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“斯宾塞想起了女儿海莉的电子琴，那琴几乎没怎么弹过。”可知，第一段可描写Spencer与女儿Hailey商量后，决定把几乎没怎么用过的键盘送给Shumaker，Shumaker感激不已，Spencer很快将键盘送到她家，Shumaker 提出给钱。 ②由第二段首句内容“我斯宾塞拒绝了这笔钱，说他只想要一张奥布里生日时开心的照片”可知，第二段可描写Spencer拒绝收钱，只想要Aubree生日开心的照片。Aubree醒来看到键盘非常惊喜，马上弹奏起来。当天晚些时候，Shumaker给Spencer发去Aubree的照片并再次致谢，这次经历让她感受到来自陌生人的温暖。 2.续写线索：Spencer和女儿决定送键盘——Shumaker感激——Spencer送键盘——Shumaker提出给钱——Spencer 拒绝收钱要照片——Aubree看到键盘惊喜弹奏——Shumaker发照片致谢——感受温暖。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①告诉：tell/inform ②提供：offer/provide ③适合：fit/suit 情绪类 ①感激的：thankful/appreciative ②渴望的：eager/thirsty 【点睛】【高分句型 1】Spencer told the story to Hailey, who was eager to help.（运用了who引导的非限制性定语从句） 【高分句型 2】She immediately began dancing her fingers over the keys, and her face lit up as those first few notes emerged.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句 ） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高 三 年 级 开 学 检 测 英 语 满分120分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡指定位置上。 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。写在本试卷 上无效。 3.考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50 分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A This year, American art lovers can look forward to a diverse lineup of exhibitions, from French Impressionism to German Romanticism and beyond. What Stands behind the Flowers 11 May-27 September at the Museum of Modern Art in New York City, NY Hilma af Klint once wrote, “I have shown that there is a connection between the plant world and the world of the soul.” An upcoming MoMA exhibition focuses on a newly discovered series of plant based art by the pioneering abstract artist.

B On October 1, the world said goodbye to Jane Goodall, a British chimpanzee (黑猩猩) expert who died at the age of 91. Goodall studied chimpanzees at the Gombe Stream Game Reserve — now a national park — in Tanzania in 1960. She had not been trained as a scientist, but many believe that this was one of her greatest strengths because it meant she was not influenced by everyone else’s thoughts about chimps. Chimpanzees are humans’ closest living relatives, and Goodall’s research showed their social behaviour to be complex and highly developed. Goodall discovered that chimpanzees not only used tools but also made them. She observed chimps “fishing” for tasty insect snacks by sticking a long piece of grass into the nest. When the straw became bent at the end, the animal broke it off to keep the tool useful. Goodall also gave the chimps names and noticed that the animals had strong family bonds and emotions. “It isn’t only human beings who have personality, who are capable of logical thought and emotions like joy and sorrow,” she said in a 1996 PBS documentary. She also discovered that wild chimps hunt and kill for meat. In 1977, she founded the Jane Goodall Institute, which manages the Gombe Stream Research Centre and has become a global organization for animals, people and the environment. One of its projects is the Tchimpounga Chimpanzee Rehabilitation Centre in the Republic of the Congo, which helps chimps that have been hurt or have lost their parents. Professor Cat Hobaiter, a chimp expert from the University of St Andrews, told the BBC, “Jane would be the first person to tell us that what the world needs right now is not sadness over her loss, but to get to work.” 4. What was Goodall’s advantage in studying chimps? A. She learned from experts. B. She received systematic training. C. She had independent views on chimps. D. She analyzed others’ thoughts about chimps. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. Chimpanzees’ ability to make tools. B. Goodall’s findings about chimpanzees. C. Chimpanzees’ bonds with family members. D. Goodall’s comments on chimpanzees’ behavior. 6. What does Cat Hobaiter suggest? A. Working in the wild. B Continuing Goodall’s mission. C. Finding out the world’s needs. D. Expressing sadness over Goodall’s loss. 7. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall? A. Pioneering and devoted. B. Polite and talented. C. Humorous and generous. D. Modest and cautious. C Named after American doctor George Huntington, who first described it 150 years ago, Huntington’s disease (HD) affects around 41,000 people in the U. S. alone, with over 200,000 more at risk. It is caused by a faulty Huntington gene, which makes a toxic protein that slowly damages the brain. For decades, Huntington’s disease has been a silent thief — robbing people of their ability to move, think, and connect with others, with no cure in sight. But a breakthrough from a Dutch team and the company uniQure is changing that story, offering the first therapy that can slow the disease’s cruel progression. Now, the gene therapy AMT-130 is turning hope into reality. In a 3-year study,29 patients received a single dose of the treatment during a 12-to-18-hour surgery, in which the therapy was injected directly into the brain. The treatment delivers a small piece of DNA that blocks the faulty gene from making the harmful protein. The results were remarkable: patients who got the high dose saw their disease progress 75% more slowly than those in an untreated control group. Tests showed their ability to think, walk, and control movements stayed far more stable. “This result changes everything,” said study author Ed Wild. While the therapy is still being reviewed for safety, uniQure hopes to get approval for wider use soon. Experts note that AMT-130 is not a cure, and the surgery is complex — plus, its high cost may limit access at first. Even so, it marks a turning point. For the HD community, this is more than a medical win. It is proof that science can outpace even the most stubborn diseases, giving families a chance to hold onto more time together. As researcher Marc Dantzer once said of similar breakthroughs, such treatments could become “powerful” tools in fighting illnesses that once seemed unbeatable. 8. What do we know about Huntington’s disease according to paragraph 1? A. It was discovered and named by a Dutch researcher. B. It has had effective treatments available for decades. C. It has a direct impact on about 41,000 people worldwide. D. It is caused by a faulty gene that produces a harmful protein. 9. What is the primary function of the gene therapy AMT-130? A. To repair the damaged brain tissues. B. To replace the faulty Huntington gene entirely. C. To block harmful protein production with DNA. D. To stimulate the brain to produce healthier proteins. 10. Why is AMT-130 regarded as a promising treatment? A. It is widely used. B. It cures a stubborn disease. C. It reduces the cost of surgery. D. It proves scientific advancement. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Stubborn Disease: History and Symptoms of HD B. A Complex Surgery: The Future of Brain Treatments C. Gene Therapy Breakthrough: Slowing Huntington’s Disease D. Affordable Medical Treatments: The Development Challenge D A report from Ember, a research group, found that in the first half of 2025, renewable energy produced more electricity than coal did across the world. Renewable energy comes from natural sources that don’t run out, such as the Sun or wind. Coal has been the main way to make electricity on Earth for more than 100 years. Formed over millions of years from dead plant matter, the black lump is burned in power stations to heat water and create steam. This turns structures called turbines (涡轮机), and the energy from the movement is turned into electricity. When coal is burned, it releases gases including carbon dioxide, which contributes to climate change. Scientists say humans must reduce their use of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and gas, in order to stop climate change from getting worse. One step people are taking is using electric vehicles instead of cars fueled by gas. But if the electricity used to charge the vehicles is still generated from coal, it will not be beneficial to the planet. The first half of 2025 marked a milestone in global energy: renewable sources accounted for 34.3% of electricity generation, exceeding coal at 33.1%. This change was primarily driven by reduced coal use in China and India, the world’s top electricity consumers. Critically, this development contributed to a 4.5% drop in power sector carbon emissions globally, showing its environmental impact. The growth was led by a rapid growth in solar and wind, which together supplied a record 18.2% of global electricity, with China alone accounting for over half of the new solar capacity. “We are seeing the first signs of a crucial shift,” said Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka from Ember. “Solar and wind are now growing fast enough to meet the world’s growing appetite for electricity.” 12. What do the underlined words “the black lump” in paragraph 1 refer to? A. Solid coal. B. Dead plant matter. C. Power from turbines. D. Energy from the movement. 13. Why do scientists suggest reducing the use of fossil fuels? A. To make electric vehicles more popular. B. To lower the cost of generating electricity. C. To prevent the worsening of climate change. D. To better study the effects of carbon dioxide. 14. How does the author support the main argument in paragraph 3? A. By sharing personal stories. B. By detailing new technologies. C. By quoting leading energy experts. D. By listing key data and national cases. 15. What is the main message conveyed by Malgorzata Wiatros-Motyka? A. Global electricity demand is expected to decline soon. B. The transition to renewable energy is becoming a reality. C. Coal will remain the dominant energy source for decades. D. Renewable energy is insufficient for future electricity 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 With colder weather coming, it’s important to help everyone stay warm.

For weeks, Aubree had been asking for one thing only for her birthday: a “real piano keyboard”, not just some small one made for little kids. Now that Aubree was asleep, Shumaker pulled the box from its hiding spot in their home, ready to reveal the 61-key keyboard with full-size keys — perfect for serious beginners like Aubree. Shumaker figured she’d put together the stand（支架）and bench, and set it all up so it would be ready to play when Aubree woke up and discovered her surprise. But when she opened the box, only the stand and bench were inside. No keyboard. Panic overtook her as she realized what she hadn’t noticed before: The keyboard was sold separately. The night before, mother and daughter had a bedtime talk. At one point, Aubree talked about how excited her friend Jimmy was when she received the lovely doll as a birthday present last year. She also talked about her dream of being a pianist in the future. “I wouldn’t let my daughter be disappointed on her birthday,” said Shumaker. What would Aubree think when she came downstairs and found only a bench and stand — no keyboard? There must be some way to fix this, she thought. Maybe an online retailer could deliver a keyboard by morning. Maybe she could go to a store, if one was still open. She looked into both options, but no luck. Now desperate, Shumaker posted in a neighborhood online group and explained the situation. “I’m so heartbroken and afraid that this will ruin her birthday,” she wrote. Andy Spencer, who lives 5 miles from Shumaker, was crawling into bed just before 2 a. m. when he saw her request. “Any parent would be in a panic,” Spencer said. “I don’t want any kid to be disappointed on her birthday.” 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Spencer thought of his daughter Hailey’s keyboard, which had hardly been played. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Rejecting the money, Spencer said all he wanted was a photo of a happy Aubree on her birthday. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
