After teaching for many years, I looked forward to kayaking (划独木舟) with my grandsons, seeing friends and traveling for leisure with my husband. But my body had other plans for me. A broken spine (脊椎) in my back took me down a path that upended my plans. I have long had back pain. However, I pushed through the pain to do my work, which worsened my condition. Doctors urged an operation when increased disability meant I could not sit, stand or walk for a long time. But I wanted to see whether physical therapy (治疗) could create an easier option. Indeed, hard work with a great physical therapist has let me improve my mobility, sitting and standing. But X-rays told a different story. My spine was unstable and bending. After careful consideration and a second opinion from another professional, I agreed to surgery yet in the near term. Needless to say, the past months have been tough and the way ahead will be even tougher. Kayaking with my grandsons in the peacefulness of the lake is all out of reach, for now. When I met my physical therapist for the first time, I was a mess. He listened to me outline my history with tears and then calmly said, “You have to make friends with your body.” I have repeated that line to myself daily and worked to embrace my body. I have focused on gratitude. I’m grateful that I do not have a fatal disease. I’m grateful that the body I have remains alert to the world, loved by family and friends. I’m grateful that I am still myself. I don’t know exactly how the future will play out. The surgeon assures me that I should be able to get in my kayak by summer. But I may have to make friends with a different body, one that is mine regardless of the shape. 24. Why did the author’s condition become worse? A. She disliked physical therapy. B. She hurt her back when kayaking. C. She still worked despite back pain. D. She was unwilling to have an operation. 25. What can we learn about the author from paragraph 3? A. She forgot to kayak with her grandsons. B. She decided to accept an operation right away. C. She completely recovered after physical therapy. D. She asked another doctor for advice on the operation. 26. What changed the author’s attitude towards her body? A. Her wish to enjoy retirement life. B. Her physical therapist’s advice. C. Her worsening physical condition. D. Her love for her family and friends. 27. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text? A. Learning to accept my body B. Enjoying my retirement life C. Fighting against my back pain D. Being grateful for what I have C In a study, the researchers found the decline was reduced by about 15%-20% among those who either volunteered formally or helped in informal ways, such as supporting neighbors, family, or friends. The strongest and most consistent benefit appeared when people spent about two to four hours per week helping others. “Everyday acts of support — whether organized or personal — can have lasting cognitive (认知的) impact,” said Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor who led the study. “What stood out to me was that the cognitive benefits of helping others weren’t just short-term improvements but cumulative over time with sustained engagement, and these benefits were evident for both formal volunteering and informal helping. Moderate engagement of just two to four hours was consistently linked to benefits.” To study these patterns over time, the researchers analyzed data from the national Health and Retirement Study. The dataset includes a representative sample of U.S. residents over age 51, with information dating back to 1998. The researchers accounted for other factors that can shape both helping behavior and cognitive health, including wealth, physical and mental health, and education. Even after considering those influences, cognitive decline tended to slow when people started helping others and continued to do so. The researchers argue these results strengthen the case for thinking about volunteering, helping, and neighborhood connection as public health issues. This may be especially important later in life, when conditions tied to cognitive decline and harm, are more likely to develop. Taken together, these findings suggest helping others may support brain health in more than one way. As societies age and concerns about loneliness grow, the results also support continued efforts to keep people involved in ways that let them contribute, even after cognitive decline has begun. “Many older adults in a low state of health often continue to make valuable contributions to those around them,” Han said, “and they may especially benefit from being provided with opportunities to help.” 28. Why does the author mention “supporting neighbors, family, or friends”? A. To exclude a certain group. B. To emphasize a relationship. C. To argue a specific viewpoint. D. To provide a clear example. 29. What does the underlined word “cumulative” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Briefly lasting. B. Randomly happening. C. Gradually increasing. D. Instantly occurring. 30. What can be inferred about the researchers’ data analysis? A. It relied on recent survey data. B. It was based on long-term tracking data. C. It focused on informal helping acts. D. It ignored key personal characteristics. 31. What is Han’s attitude toward older adults in poor health helping others? A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Cautious. D. Doubtful. D A team led by the University of Cambridge have engineered a solar-powered “artificial leaf” that could eventually help this vital industry move away from fossil fuels. Their breakthrough involves a new device that brings together light-absorbing organic polymers and bacterial enzymes (酶) to transform sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into formate, a clean fuel that can power additional chemical reactions. This “artificial leaf” copies photosynthesis (光合作用), the natural process plants use to turn sunlight into energy and operates entirely on its own power. Unlike previous designs that relied on poisonous or unstable light absorbers, this new model uses non-poisonous materials, runs more efficiently, and remains stable without extra additives. This marks the first instance where these non-poisonous materials have served as the light-catching component in such a bio-hybrid system, preparing for a new generation of eco-friendly artificial leaves. The chemical industry remains a cornerstone of the global economy, producing a vast range of goods — from medicines to plastics, paints, electronics, and cleaning agents. “If we’re going to build a cyclic, sustainable economy, the chemical industry is a big, complex problem that we must address,” said Professor Erwin Reisner from the University of Cambridge’s Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry, who led the research. Tests showed the artificial leaf produced high currents and achieved near-perfect efficiency in directing electrons into fuel-making reactions. The device successfully ran for over 24 hours: more than twice as long as previous designs. The researchers are hoping to further develop their designs to extend the service life of the device and adapt it so it can produce different types of chemical products. “We’ve shown it’s possible to create solar-powered devices that are not only efficient and durable but also free from poisonous or unsustainable components,” said Reisner. “This could be a fundamental platform for producing green fuels and chemicals in future — it’s a real opportunity to do some exciting and important chemistry.” 32. What is the main purpose of the artificial leaf described in paragraph 1? A. To create new materials. B. To produce clean fuel. C. To cut carbon emissions. D. To absorb more sunlight. 33. What makes the artificial leaf different from earlier designs? A. It depends on costly and rare additives. B. It combines natural and artificial materials. C. It produces electricity and chemical fuels. D. It relies on safer and more efficient materials. 34 What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. The devices are still lack of efficiency. B. The potential is limited to lab applications. C. The technology might have a bright future. D. The material choice may be a major concern. 35. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Solar Leaf for Green Chemistry B. Materials from the Plants’ Leaf C. Fossil Fuels in Chemical Industry D. Sustainable Challenges in Economy 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。 Finding motivation to exercise can be the greatest challenge in working out. ____36____? One way of achieving this could be opting for types of exercise that fit our personality. We found that our personality can influence how we engage with exercise. ____37____. When we design and recommend physical activity programs, understanding personality factors is very important. This is because it helps determine how successful the program will be, and whether people will stick with it and become fitter. ____38____. This shapes our behaviors and how we interact with the world around us. Therefore, it makes sense that personality would affect how we react to different levels of exercise intensity. For example, people scoring high on extraversion (外向) enjoyed high intensity sessions with others around, including team sports. On the contrary, people scoring high on neuroticism (神经质) preferred private workouts. The most important part about exercising is finding something we enjoy and not being discouraged if we don’t immediately find it. It’s OK if we don’t enjoy a particular session. ____39____. We hope that if people can find physical activities that they enjoy, they will more readily choose to do them. After all, we don’t have to force dogs to go for a walk: Being so physically inactive that we start to feel miserable might be a peculiarly human thing to do. ____40____. But for some reason, many of us humans seem poor at picking up on these messages it is sending to our brain. A. We can try something else. B. Our brains work differently. C. Doing exercise is essential for our health. D. But why not try other different workouts instead? E. But what if working out could be more enjoyable? F. In effect, our body punishes us by making us miserable. G. And it also affects which forms of exercise we enjoy the most. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was thirteen when Mom woke me up at 4:00 am. “Let’s catch the ____41____ bus,” she whispered.

The cool autumn wind swept across the rolling hills of Iowa City High, where the annual cross-country meet was about to begin. The crowd lined the muddy trail, coaches barked last-minute instructions, and runners warmed up their bodies, their breaths visible in the cool morning air. Among them was Evan Hansen, a quiet but determined sophomore, who had trained for months for this race. The school coach, Mr. Skay, patted his shoulder and said, “Believe in yourself and run well!” Evan nodded, “Sure, I will!” Bang! The race began. Runners surged forward. But after just a few minutes, Evan noticed something odd. Near him was another runner, Adam Todd, from a different school. Adam had epilepsy (癫痫) and autism (孤独症), and sometimes he felt confused in noisy places. Today, the sound of an ambulance made him lose his way. As the race began, Adam turned and walked into the trees. Evan noticed that Adam was missing. Evan hesitated. He knew the rules: stay on course, keep pace, win the race. But something told him to stop. He stopped running and looked around. Soon, he saw Adam walking alone, looking lost. Evan did not think twice. He turned and ran back. “Adam!” Evan called out, slowing down. Adam didn’t respond. His eyes were glazed, his steps unsteady. Evan jogged back and gently approached him. “Hey, man, I’m Evan. You’re off the trail. Want me to help you get back?” Adam looked at him, confused but calm. Without waiting for an answer, Evan took his hand—not out of pity, but out of trust. “I’ll run with you,” Evan said, his voice steady. “Together.” 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 For the next 1.5 miles, Evan walked and jogged beside Adam. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Adam crossed the line first. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江西省武宁县第二中学2025-2026学年度下学期开学考试 高三英语试题 时间120分钟 总分150分 第一部分　听力(共两节，满分30分) 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，每段对话读2遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the man ask the woman to do?

Its affordable price. B. Its sandwich treat. C. Its all-day operation. 【答案】17. B 18. C 19. B 20. A 【解析】 【原文】Hi, everyone. If you’ve followed our journey from the start, you’ll recall that we set out from Portugal, traveled across Spain and into southern France, then made our way through the Alps to Austria, and this week we’ve arrived in Berlin. We won’t linger long at the well-known sights. In a city like Berlin, even a first-time visitor knows to visit the historic Berlin Wall and no one skips the Brandenburg Gate. But we’re exploring spots that most tourists overlook. For example, the most striking city view might not be from the TV Tower, but from the rooftop of the Berlin Church. From there, you can see the TV Tower along with the whole cityscape. It’s more affordable and less crowded. For some of the best views in the city, get on Route 100 — it’s a feast for the eyes as it winds past many of Berlin’s key attractions. Or we can glide through Berlin on one of the city’s canal boats. Many European cities have excellent public transit, but Berlin’s system is especially impressive. You can reach almost every corner of the city for a modest fare. In fact, with a day ticket that costs about the same as a sandwich, you can travel all over town without worrying. 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A 2026 International Youth Art Contest and Exhibition is drawing near and the following is some information about it.

After teaching for many years, I looked forward to kayaking (划独木舟) with my grandsons, seeing friends and traveling for leisure with my husband. But my body had other plans for me. A broken spine (脊椎) in my back took me down a path that upended my plans. I have long had back pain. However, I pushed through the pain to do my work, which worsened my condition. Doctors urged an operation when increased disability meant I could not sit, stand or walk for a long time. But I wanted to see whether physical therapy (治疗) could create an easier option. Indeed, hard work with a great physical therapist has let me improve my mobility, sitting and standing. But X-rays told a different story. My spine was unstable and bending. After careful consideration and a second opinion from another professional, I agreed to surgery yet in the near term. Needless to say, the past months have been tough and the way ahead will be even tougher. Kayaking with my grandsons in the peacefulness of the lake is all out of reach, for now. When I met my physical therapist for the first time, I was a mess. He listened to me outline my history with tears and then calmly said, “You have to make friends with your body.” I have repeated that line to myself daily and worked to embrace my body. I have focused on gratitude. I’m grateful that I do not have a fatal disease. I’m grateful that the body I have remains alert to the world, loved by family and friends. I’m grateful that I am still myself. I don’t know exactly how the future will play out. The surgeon assures me that I should be able to get in my kayak by summer. But I may have to make friends with a different body, one that is mine regardless of the shape. 24. Why did the author’s condition become worse? A. She disliked physical therapy. B. She hurt her back when kayaking. C. She still worked despite back pain. D She was unwilling to have an operation. 25. What can we learn about the author from paragraph 3? A. She forgot to kayak with her grandsons. B. She decided to accept an operation right away. C. She completely recovered after physical therapy. D. She asked another doctor for advice on the operation. 26. What changed the author’s attitude towards her body? A. Her wish to enjoy retirement life. B. Her physical therapist’s advice. C Her worsening physical condition. D. Her love for her family and friends. 27. Which of the following is the most suitable title for the text? A. Learning to accept my body B. Enjoying my retirement life C. Fighting against my back pain D. Being grateful for what I have 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者原计划在退休后享受休闲时光，但却因为背部脊椎的病情计划被打乱。作者长期背痛，却仍然工作，导致病情恶化，尽管物理治疗有所帮助，但作者还是进行了手术。手术后作者的日子很艰难，听了理疗师建议和自己的身体做朋友后，作者改变了对自己身体的态度，开始接受自己的身体，对生活充满感激。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I have long had back pain. However, I pushed through the pain to do my work, which worsened my condition. (我背痛很久了。然而，我顶着疼痛去做我的工作，这使我的病情恶化了)”可知，尽管背部疼痛，作者仍然工作，因此病情恶化了。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“After careful consideration and a second opinion from another professional, I agreed to surgery yet in the near term. (经过仔细的考虑和再征求另一位专业人士的意见后，我同意在短期内做手术)”可知，作者向另一位医生征求了手术建议。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“When I met my physical therapist for the first time, I was a mess. He listened to me outline my history with tears and then calmly said, “You have to make friends with your body.” I have repeated that line to myself daily and worked to embrace my body. (当我第一次见到我的理疗师时，我一团糟。他听我流着泪讲述我的经历，然后平静地说：“你必须和你的身体做朋友。”我每天都对自己重复这句话，努力接受自己的身体)”可知，理疗师建议作者学会和身体做朋友，这改变了她对自己身体的态度。故选B项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是全文最后一句“But I may have to make friends with a different body, one that is mine regardless of the shape. (但我可能不得不和一个不同的身体交朋友，一个不管形态如何都属于我的身体)”可知，文章围绕作者治疗背部脊椎疾病的经历展开，作者原计划在退休后享受休闲时光，但却因为背部脊椎的病情计划被打乱。作者长期背痛，却仍然工作，导致病情恶化，尽管物理治疗有所帮助，但作者还是进行了手术。手术后作者的日子很艰难，听了理疗师建议和自己的身体做朋友后，作者改变了对自己身体的态度，开始接受自己的身体，对生活充满感激。因此，A项“学着接受自己的身体”点明了这段经历最终的结局和主题，适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 C In a study, the researchers found the decline was reduced by about 15%-20% among those who either volunteered formally or helped in informal ways, such as supporting neighbors, family, or friends. The strongest and most consistent benefit appeared when people spent about two to four hours per week helping others. “Everyday acts of support — whether organized or personal — can have lasting cognitive (认知) impact,” said Sae Hwang Han, an assistant professor who led the study. “What stood out to me was that the cognitive benefits of helping others weren’t just short-term improvements but cumulative over time with sustained engagement, and these benefits were evident for both formal volunteering and informal helping. Moderate engagement of just two to four hours was consistently linked to benefits.” To study these patterns over time, the researchers analyzed data from the national Health and Retirement Study. The dataset includes a representative sample of U.S. residents over age 51, with information dating back to 1998. The researchers accounted for other factors that can shape both helping behavior and cognitive health, including wealth, physical and mental health, and education. Even after considering those influences, cognitive decline tended to slow when people started helping others and continued to do so. The researchers argue these results strengthen the case for thinking about volunteering, helping, and neighborhood connection as public health issues. This may be especially important later in life, when conditions tied to cognitive decline and harm, are more likely to develop. Taken together, these findings suggest helping others may support brain health in more than one way. As societies age and concerns about loneliness grow, the results also support continued efforts to keep people involved in ways that let them contribute, even after cognitive decline has begun. “Many older adults in a low state of health often continue to make valuable contributions to those around them,” Han said, “and they may especially benefit from being provided with opportunities to help.” 28. Why does the author mention “supporting neighbors, family, or friends”? A. To exclude a certain group. B. To emphasize a relationship. C. To argue a specific viewpoint. D. To provide a clear example. 29. What does the underlined word “cumulative” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Briefly lasting. B. Randomly happening. C. Gradually increasing. D. Instantly occurring. 30. What can be inferred about the researchers’ data analysis? A. It relied on recent survey data. B. It was based on long-term tracking data. C. It focused on informal helping acts. D. It ignored key personal characteristics. 31. What is Han’s attitude toward older adults in poor health helping others? A. Approving. B. Critical. C. Cautious. D. Doubtful. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究发现适度帮助他人能减缓认知衰退、有益大脑健康，并指出其公共卫生意义。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In a study, the researchers found the decline was reduced by about 15%-20% among those who either volunteered formally or helped in informal ways, such as supporting neighbors, family, or friends.(在一项研究中，研究人员发现，那些参与正式志愿服务或以非正式方式提供帮助（如帮扶邻居、家人或朋友）的人，其认知能力下降的幅度减缓了约15%–20%。)”可知，作者举例说明非正式的帮助方式。故选D。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在语境“What stood out to me was that the cognitive benefits of helping others weren’t just short-term improvements but cumulative over time with sustained engagement, and these benefits were evident for both formal volunteering and informal helping. Moderate engagement of just two to four hours was consistently linked to benefits.(让我印象深刻的是，帮助他人带来的认知益处不只是短期改善，而是随着持续参与cumulative，正式志愿服务和非正式帮助都有这样的效果。每周2到4小时的适度参与始终与认知益处相关。)”可知，帮助他人的认知好处不只是短期改善。由此可推测，划线单词的意思与“短期改善”相反。选项C“Gradually increasing.”，意为“逐渐增加”，与此相符。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“To study these patterns over time, the researchers analyzed data from the national Health and Retirement Study. The dataset includes a representative sample of U.S. residents over age 51, with information dating back to 1998.(为了长期研究这些规律，研究人员分析了全美健康与退休研究的数据。该数据集包含具有代表性的51岁以上美国居民样本，信息可追溯至1998年。)”可推测，该数据分析基于长期追踪数据。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Many older adults in a low state of health often continue to make valuable contributions to those around them,” Han said, “and they may especially benefit from being provided with opportunities to help.”(“许多健康状况不佳的老年人仍在持续为身边的人做出宝贵贡献，”Han说，“为他们提供帮助他人的机会，他们可能会格外受益。”)”可知，Han支持健康状况不佳的老年人帮助他人。故选A。 D A team led by the University of Cambridge have engineered a solar-powered “artificial leaf” that could eventually help this vital industry move away from fossil fuels. Their breakthrough involves a new device that brings together light-absorbing organic polymers and bacterial enzymes (酶) to transform sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into formate, a clean fuel that can power additional chemical reactions. This “artificial leaf” copies photosynthesis (光合作用), the natural process plants use to turn sunlight into energy and operates entirely on its own power. Unlike previous designs that relied on poisonous or unstable light absorbers, this new model uses non-poisonous materials, runs more efficiently, and remains stable without extra additives. This marks the first instance where these non-poisonous materials have served as the light-catching component in such a bio-hybrid system, preparing for a new generation of eco-friendly artificial leaves. The chemical industry remains a cornerstone of the global economy, producing a vast range of goods — from medicines to plastics, paints, electronics, and cleaning agents. “If we’re going to build a cyclic, sustainable economy, the chemical industry is a big, complex problem that we must address,” said Professor Erwin Reisner from the University of Cambridge’s Yusuf Hamied Department of Chemistry, who led the research. Tests showed the artificial leaf produced high currents and achieved near-perfect efficiency in directing electrons into fuel-making reactions. The device successfully ran for over 24 hours: more than twice as long as previous designs. The researchers are hoping to further develop their designs to extend the service life of the device and adapt it so it can produce different types of chemical products. “We’ve shown it’s possible to create solar-powered devices that are not only efficient and durable but also free from poisonous or unsustainable components,” said Reisner. “This could be a fundamental platform for producing green fuels and chemicals in future — it’s a real opportunity to do some exciting and important chemistry.” 32. What is the main purpose of the artificial leaf described in paragraph 1? A. To create new materials. B. To produce clean fuel. C. To cut carbon emissions. D. To absorb more sunlight. 33. What makes the artificial leaf different from earlier designs? A. It depends on costly and rare additives. B. It combines natural and artificial materials. C. It produces electricity and chemical fuels. D. It relies on safer and more efficient materials. 34. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. The devices are still lack of efficiency. B. The potential is limited to lab applications. C. The technology might have a bright future. D. The material choice may be a major concern. 35. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. Solar Leaf for Green Chemistry B. Materials from the Plants’ Leaf C. Fossil Fuels in Chemical Industry D. Sustainable Challenges in Economy 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了剑桥大学研发的新型“人工树叶”的原理、优势及对绿色化工的意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Their breakthrough involves a new device that brings together light-absorbing organic polymers and bacterial enzymes(酶)to transform sunlight, water, and carbon dioxide into formate, a clean fuel that can power additional chemical reactions.(他们的这项突破性成果采用了一种新装置，将吸光有机聚合物与细菌酶相结合，把阳光、水和二氧化碳转化为甲酸盐——一种可驱动其他化学反应的清洁燃料。)”可知，这种人工树叶的主要目的是将阳光、水和二氧化碳转化为清洁燃料。故选B。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Unlike previous designs that relied on poisonous or unstable light absorbers, this new model uses non-poisonous materials, runs more efficiently, and remains stable without extra additives.(与以往依赖有毒或不稳定光吸收剂的设计不同，这款新型装置使用无毒材料，运行效率更高，且无需额外添加剂就能保持稳定。)”可知，这种新型人工树叶使用无毒、更高效的材料。故选D。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““We’ve shown it’s possible to create solar-powered devices that are not only efficient and durable but also free from poisonous or unsustainable components,” said Reisner. “This could be a fundamental platform for producing green fuels and chemicals in future—it’s a real opportunity to do some exciting and important chemistry.”(Reisner说：“我们已经证明，制造出高效、耐用且不含有毒或不可持续成分的太阳能装置是可行的。这可能成为未来生产绿色燃料和化学品的基础平台——这是开展一些令人振奋且意义重大的化学研究的真正机遇。”)”可推测，这项技术在未来可能成为生产绿色燃料和化学品的基础平台，具有广阔前景。故选C。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“A team led by the University of Cambridge have engineered a solar-powered “artificial leaf” that could eventually help this vital industry move away from fossil fuels.(由剑桥大学领导的一个团队研发出了一种太阳能“人工树叶”，它最终有望帮助这一重要产业摆脱对化石燃料的依赖。)”以及全文内容可知，本文主要介绍了用于绿色化学、清洁燃料生产的太阳能“人工树叶”。故选A。 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。 Finding motivation to exercise can be the greatest challenge in working out. ____36____? One way of achieving this could be opting for types of exercise that fit our personality. We found that our personality can influence how we engage with exercise. ____37____. When we design and recommend physical activity programs, understanding personality factors is very important. This is because it helps determine how successful the program will be, and whether people will stick with it and become fitter. ____38____. This shapes our behaviors and how we interact with the world around us. Therefore, it makes sense that personality would affect how we react to different levels of exercise intensity. For example, people scoring high on extraversion (外向) enjoyed high intensity sessions with others around, including team sports. On the contrary, people scoring high on neuroticism (神经质) preferred private workouts. The most important part about exercising is finding something we enjoy and not being discouraged if we don’t immediately find it. It’s OK if we don’t enjoy a particular session. ____39____. We hope that if people can find physical activities that they enjoy, they will more readily choose to do them. After all, we don’t have to force dogs to go for a walk: Being so physically inactive that we start to feel miserable might be a peculiarly human thing to do. ____40____. But for some reason, many of us humans seem poor at picking up on these messages it is sending to our brain. A. We can try something else. B. Our brains work differently. C. Doing exercise is essential for our health. D. But why not try other different workouts instead? E. But what if working out could be more enjoyable? F. In effect, our body punishes us by making us miserable. G. And it also affects which forms of exercise we enjoy the most. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. B 39. A 40. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文指出找锻炼的动力是难题，提出选择契合性格的运动可让其更愉悦，说明性格（源于大脑差异）影响运动偏好，建议不喜欢就换，还提到身体会通过痛苦惩罚久坐的人。 【36题详解】 前文“Finding motivation to exercise can be the greatest challenge in working out.( 找到锻炼的动力可能是进行锻炼时面临的最大挑战。)”提出“找运动动力是最大挑战”，后文“One way of achieving this could be opting for types of exercise that fit our personality.( 一种实现这一目标的方法可能是选择适合我们个性的运动类型。)”给出解决办法“选择契合性格的运动类型”，空处需为承上启下的设问，衔接“挑战”与“让运动更愉悦的解决思路”。E项“But what if working out could be more enjoyable?( 但倘若运动能变得更有趣呢？)”以设问引出下文，且“more enjoyable”呼应后文契合性格的运动能带来的体验。故选E项。 【37题详解】 前文“We found that our personality can influence how we engage with exercise.( 我们发现，我们的性格会影响我们参与锻炼的方式。)”提出“性格会影响我们参与运动的方式”，后文“When we design and recommend physical activity programs, understanding personality factors is very important.( 当我们设计并推荐体育活动项目时，了解个性因素非常重要。)”强调“设计运动计划时理解性格很重要”，空处需递进说明性格对运动的另一层影响，衔接前后文的“性格和运动”关联。G 项“And it also affects which forms of exercise we enjoy the most.( 而且它还会影响我们最喜欢哪种运动形式。)”是前文的递进，“which forms of exercise we enjoy the most” 呼应后文“选择契合的运动、坚持执行”的核心，逻辑连贯。故选G项。 【38题详解】 后文“This shapes our behaviors and how we interact with the world around us. Therefore, it makes sense that personality would affect how we react to different levels of exercise intensity.( 这塑造了我们的行为以及我们与周围世界互动的方式。因此，从逻辑上讲，个性会影响我们对不同强度锻炼反应的方式。)”提到“这塑造了我们的行为和与世界互动的方式，因此性格会影响对运动强度的反应”，空处需为核心观点句，解释“性格影响运动选择”的根源，且“this”需指代空处内容。B 项“Our brains work differently.( 我们的大脑运作方式各不相同。)”是后文“行为、互动方式、运动偏好差异”的根源，“this”指代大脑运作的差异，符合语境。故选B项。 【39题详解】 前文“The most important part about exercising is finding something we enjoy and not being discouraged if we don’t immediately find it. It’s OK if we don’t enjoy a particular session.( 锻炼最重要的部分是找到我们喜欢的事情，并且如果一开始找不到也不要气馁。如果我们不喜欢某一次的活动也没关系。)”强调“运动的关键是找到喜欢的类型，没立刻找到也别气馁，不喜欢某类运动很正常”，空处需为承接上文的建议，给出“不喜欢时的做法”。A 项“We can try something else.( 我们可以试试别的运动。)”贴合前文“不气馁、继续寻找” 的态度，简单直接，符合语境。故选A项。 【40题详解】 前文“After all, we don’t have to force dogs to go for a walk: Being so physically inactive that we start to feel miserable might be a peculiarly human thing to do.( 毕竟，我们不必强迫狗去散步：过于缺乏运动以至于感到不适这种行为可能是人类特有的表现。)”将人类与动物对比 “不用强迫狗狗散步，人类却会因久坐不动感到痛苦”，后文“But for some reason, many of us humans seem poor at picking up on these messages it is sending to our brain.( 但出于某种原因，我们很多人似乎难以领会它传递给大脑的这些信息。)”说“人类似乎不擅长接收身体给大脑的信号”，空处需衔接“身体痛苦”与“信号”，说明身体对久坐的反应。F项“In effect, our body punishes us by making us miserable.( 事实上，我们的身体会通过让我们感到痛苦来惩罚我们。)”贴合前文“feel miserable”，且呼应后文“身体向大脑发送的信号”，逻辑衔接紧密。故选F项。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was thirteen when Mom woke me up at 4:00 am. “Let’s catch the ____41____ bus,” she whispered.

Instead of giving up, I saw it as a challenge to grow. I started to practice my speeches alone in front of a mirror and then with a few supportive friends. I focused on my message rather than my fear. Progress was slow, but with each attempt, my confidence grew slightly. Finally, I won the title of Best Debater. This journey revealed that adversity, the internal fear we face, is itself the necessary path to growth. By confronting it, I transformed fear into clarity and hesitation into courage. True growth lies in walking this path, step by step. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生介绍自己克服逆境的一次经历，谈谈自己从中获得的启示，写一篇短文，向校英文网站投稿。 【详解】1.词汇积累 恐惧：fear → terror 专注于：focus on → concentrate on 转化：transform → convert 勇气：courage → bravery 2.句式拓展 句型转换 原句：Progress was slow, but with each attempt, my confidence grew slightly. 拓展句：Though progress was slow, my confidence grew slightly with each attempt. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Last year, I dreamed of joining the school debate team, yet my fear of public speaking stood like a solid wall in my way. (运用了动名词短语joining作宾语) 【高分句型2】This journey revealed that adversity, the internal fear we face, is itself the necessary path to growth. (运用了that引导的宾语从句，省略that引导的定语从句) 第二节(满分25分) 67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 It was a sunny autumn morning in Iowa. The cool autumn wind swept across the rolling hills of Iowa City High, where the annual cross-country meet was about to begin. The crowd lined the muddy trail, coaches barked last-minute instructions, and runners warmed up their bodies, their breaths visible in the cool morning air. Among them was Evan Hansen, a quiet but determined sophomore, who had trained for months for this race. The school coach, Mr. Skay, patted his shoulder and said, “Believe in yourself and run well!” Evan nodded, “Sure, I will!” Bang! The race began. Runners surged forward. But after just a few minutes, Evan noticed something odd. Near him was another runner, Adam Todd, from a different school. Adam had epilepsy (癫痫) and autism (孤独症), and sometimes he felt confused in noisy places. Today, the sound of an ambulance made him lose his way. As the race began, Adam turned and walked into the trees. Evan noticed that Adam was missing. Evan hesitated. He knew the rules: stay on course keep pace, win the race. But something told him to stop. He stopped running and looked around. Soon, he saw Adam walking alone, looking lost. Evan did not think twice. He turned and ran back. “Adam!” Evan called out, slowing down. Adam didn’t respond. His eyes were glazed, his steps unsteady. Evan jogged back and gently approached him. “Hey, man, I’m Evan. You’re off the trail. Want me to help you get back?” Adam looked at him, confused but calm. Without waiting for an answer, Evan took his hand—not out of pity, but out of trust. “I’ll run with you,” Evan said, his voice steady. “Together.” 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 For the next 1.5 miles, Evan walked and jogged beside Adam. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Adam crossed the line first. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 For the next 1.5 miles, Evan walked and jogged beside Adam. He pointed out the beautiful autumn leaves on the trees, trying to keep Adam calm and focused. When Adam seemed a bit more stable, Evan gently guided him back towards the main trail. Along the way, other runners passed them, but Evan didn’t care. His only concern was getting Adam back on track. He encouraged Adam with kind words, “You’re doing great, Adam. We’re almost there.” Adam crossed the line first. The crowd, who had witnessed Evan’s selfless act, erupted into thunderous applause. Adam looked around, a bit dazed but with a hint of a smile. Evan came in a distant second, but he didn’t mind. Mr. Skay rushed over and gave Evan a big hug, his eyes filled with pride. Evan looked at Adam, knowing that in this race, he had won something far more precious than a first-place medal. He had shown kindness and compassion, and in the process, had made a new friend. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在秋日越野赛中，Evan放弃比赛，主动帮助患病迷路的Adam回到赛道、完成比赛，最终收获了比奖牌更珍贵的善良与友谊。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的1.5英里里，埃文陪在亚当身边，时而步行，时而慢跑。”以及第二段首句内容“亚当率先冲过了终点线。”可知，第一段可描写两人相伴全程，埃文一直在鼓励亚当。 ②由第二段首句内容“亚当率先冲过了终点线。”可知，第二段可描写观众们非常钦佩埃文的无私，而埃文也收获了很多。 2.续写线索：埃文始终陪在亚当身边——他努力让亚当保持平静——两人终于回到了主赛道——其他选手一一赶超他们——埃文始终鼓励着亚当——后来，亚当率先冲过了终点线——然后埃文才冲线——后来，所有的观众都欢呼雀跃——而埃文也收获了比金牌更珍贵的东西 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①引导：guide/lead ②鼓励：encourage/motivate/inspire ③目睹：witness/ observe/behold 情绪类 ①平静：calm/composed ②稳定的：stable/steady 【点睛】【高分句型1】When Adam seemed a bit more stable, Evan gently guided him back towards the main trail.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】The crowd, who had witnessed Evan’s selfless act, erupted into thunderous applause.（运用了who引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Estell, I have a meeting with mister Allen at three o'clock this afternoon.

If you followed our journey from the start, you'll recall that we set out from portugal, travelled across spain and into southern france, then made our way through the alps to austria. And this week we've arrived in berlin. We won't linger along at the well known sites in a city like berlin. Even at first time, visitor knows to visit the historic berlin wall, and no one skips the britain burg gate, but we're expLoring spots that most tourists overlook. For example, the most striking city view might not be from the T, V, tower, but from the rooftop of the berlin church. From there you can see the T, V tower along with the whole city escape. It's more affordable and the less crowded for some of the best views in the city. Get on route one hundred is a feast for the eyes as IT winds passed many of berlin's key attractions. Or we can glide through berlin on one of the cities, canal boats. Many european cities have excEllent public resit, but garland's system is especially impressive. You can reach almost every corner of the city for a modest fair. In fact, with a day ticket that costs about the same as a sandwich, you can travel all over town without worrying. Hi everyone.
