They are introducing their parents to a whole new world. These children are influencing their families in great ways, leading parents that used to stick to old habits to try new hobbies or goods. In July, public relations company DKC made a report on parents of this generation, which stressed the very trend (趋势，潮流). According to the report, many parents are now welcoming new experiences based on their children’s suggestions. How Gen Alpha Kids Are Driving New Trends The report calls Gen Alpha “technology-aware” and “culture-shaping” — two traits (特征) that make these kids natural trendsetters for their families. It explains that kids in this age group aren’t just following trends themselves; they’re actively encouraging their parents to step out and try new things. For example, 66% of parents say they’ve tried different foods on the advice of a Gen Alpha kid. And 40% of the parents surveyed say they’ve signed up for a subscription (订阅) service at their kid’s suggestion. (Find more examples from the survey in the bar graph below.) DKC GEN ALPHA REPORT 2025 The Economic (经济的) Influence of Young Voices The numbers show that kids are having a great economic influence. Members of Gen Alpha may not be old enough for part-time jobs or make some money in other ways on their own, but their young voices carry weight when it comes to family spending. “It’s not just thinking about what an 8 to 14-year-old is going to buy or ask their parents to buy for them,” DKC president Matthew Traub said. “It’s how they’re influencing the whole family’s spending decisions.” 1. What is the DKC’s report mainly about? A. The popular hobbies of Gen Alpha kids. B. The work that the DKC company has done. C. The secret behind the name “Gen Alpha”. D. The effects that Gen Alpha kids have on parents. 2. In which of the following do Gen Alpha kids have the strongest influence? A. Trying different foods. B. Watching different sports. C. Buying goods during sales. D. Using new beauty things. 3. How do Gen Alpha kids influence economy? A. They bring about new jobs. B. They spend a lot on themselves. C. They shape the family spending habits. D. They prefer to make money independently. 【答案】1. D 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是阿尔法世代（Gen Alpha，即8至14岁的孩子）如何通过自身特质影响家庭，成为家庭中的潮流引领者，并对家庭消费决策产生重大经济影响。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段的“Members of Generation Alpha, often known as Gen Alpha for short, are kids aged 8 to 14. They are introducing their parents to a whole new world. These children are influencing their families in great ways, leading parents that used to stick to old habits to try new hobbies or goods.(阿尔法世代（Alpha Generation）的成员，通常简称为“Gen Alpha”，是年龄在8至14岁的孩子。他们正引领父母进入一个全新的世界。这些孩子正以极大的方式影响着他们的家庭，促使那些曾经墨守成规的父母尝试新的爱好或商品。)”和第二段“In July, public relations company DKC made a report on parents of this generation, which stressed the very trend (趋势，潮流).(今年7月，公关公司DKC发布了一份关于这一代孩子父母的报告，强调了这一趋势。)”可知，DKC报告的主要内容是阿尔法一代对父母的影响。故选D。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“For example, 66% of parents say they’ve tried different foods on the advice of a Gen Alpha kid. And 40% of the parents surveyed say they’ve signed up for a subscription (订阅) service at their kid’s suggestion.(例如，66%的父母表示，他们是在阿尔法世代孩子的建议下尝试了不同的食物。在接受调查的父母中，40%的人表示，他们是在孩子的建议下订阅了某项服务。)”和图表可知，“阿尔法一代”影响父母尝试新事物的比例中，“尝试不同食物”占66%（是所有项目中占比最高的），结合选项可知，在“尝试不同食物”这件事上，“阿尔法一代”对父母的影响最显著。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The numbers show that kids are having a great economic influence. Members of Gen Alpha may not be old enough for part-time jobs or make some money in other ways on their own, but their young voices carry weight when it comes to family spending. “It’s not just thinking about what an 8 to 14-year-old is going to buy or ask their parents to buy for them,” DKC president Matthew Traub said. “It’s how they’re influencing the whole family’s spending decisions.”(数据显示，儿童正产生巨大的经济影响力。虽然阿尔法世代（指2010年代初至中期出生的人）的孩子们可能还不到可以兼职或独立赚钱的年龄，但在家庭消费方面，他们的话语权不容小觑。“我们不仅要考虑一个8到14岁的孩子会买什么，或者会要求父母为他们买什么，”DKC公关公司总裁马修·特劳布指出，“更要关注他们是如何影响整个家庭的消费决策的。”)”可知，阿尔法一代的孩子塑造了家庭的消费习惯，进而影响经济。故选C。 B St. Bernard Parish firefighter Nixon was driving home with his wife after a celebration when he noticed some smoke near the Mississippi state line. As he got closer, he saw a car that had crashed into a large truck — its body was twisted, and the tyres (轮胎) were already burning. It seemed all resulted from the turn the car driver had suddenly made. The car was soon catching fire, and Nixon knew someone might be trapped inside. Quickly, he pulled over and rushed toward the burning car. First, he knocked at the driver’s window, calling out to check if the driver was okay and if anyone else was in the car, but there was no answer. His heart raced a little with fear, but he pushed the feeling aside; he circled to the right passenger side, his attention fixed only on getting the person out. By then, the fire had spread to the car’s inside, and thick smoke rose. Nixon used his hands to try breaking the windshield (挡风玻璃). When the windshield finally broke, he reached in, held the driver who had passed out, lifted her up, and pushed her out through the broken opening. Just as he got out of the car safely, the car was totally on fire. Moments later, firefighters from St. Tammany Fire Protection District arrived, but the car was already burned down. The woman was rushed to a New Orleans hospital. Nixon’s hands were treated for the cuts made when he broke the windshield, but he said the experience felt deeply meaningful: “Saving her life made all the pain worth it,” he noted, adding that the act of rescuing her had lifted his spirits in an unexpected way. 4. What probably caused the accident? A The car driver lost control due to heavy smoke. B. The car driver made a sudden change in direction. C. The large truck stopped unexpectedly on the road. D. The car’s tyres broke before reaching the state line. 5. What happened in the rescue process? A. The car driver came back to life in time. B. The truck driver called for help immediately. C. Nixon got injured when breaking the windshield. D. Local firefighters arrived soon and put out the fire. 6. Which words can best describe Nixon? A. Outgoing and polite. B. Humorous and careful. C. Patient and creative. D. Brave and responsible. 7. What message does the text deliver? A. Car accidents are common near state lines. B. Firefighters should always put others’ safety first. C. Helping others can bring a strong sense of satisfaction. D. Timely medical treatment is key to survivors of accidents. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲的是圣伯纳德教区消防员尼克松在庆祝活动后与妻子驾车回家途中，发现密西西比州州界附近发生的一起严重车祸并英勇救人的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“It seemed all resulted from the turn the car driver had suddenly made.(这一切似乎都是因为汽车司机突然转弯所致。)”可知，事故的发生可能源于汽车司机突然做出的转向操作。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Nixon’s hands were treated for the cuts made when he broke the windshield, but he said the experience felt deeply meaningful(尼克松因砸碎挡风玻璃时手部受伤而接受了治疗，但他表示，这次经历让他深感意义非凡)”可知，救援过程中，Nixon受伤了。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Quickly, he pulled over and rushed toward the burning car.(他迅速把车停在路边，向着火的汽车冲去。)”可知，他勇敢；根据第二段“His heart raced a little with fear, but he pushed the feeling aside; he circled to the right passenger side, his attention fixed only on getting the person out.(他的心因害怕而怦怦直跳，但他把这种感觉推到一边；他绕到右边的乘客座位，他的注意力集中在把那个人救出来上。)”可知，他专注于救人，是负责任的，因此可用brave和responsible来描述他，故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Saving her life made all the pain worth it,” he noted, adding that the act of rescuing her had lifted his spirits in an unexpected way.(“救了她一命，所有疼痛都值了。”他补充说，这次救援行动以一种意想不到的方式振奋了他的精神。)”可知，文章传递的信息是帮助别人可以带来强烈的满足感。故选C。 C Many of us start exercising in the hope of losing unwanted pounds. Unquestionably, aiming to be more active is a good thing. But if the main reason is to lose weight, your decision could very well come to nothing. For starters, exercise is typically futile for weight loss. Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your hard work of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda. When exercise is added to a diet, the results are equally unimpressive. Researchers found that a combination of dieting and exercising produced no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months. At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advance, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average. In studies where exercise has produced meaningful weight loss, participants burned at least 400 to 500 calories per workout on five or more days a week. To achieve that, a 150-pound person would need to walk a minimum of 90 minutes or run 30 minutes per day. In short, these workouts need to go well beyond what most of us are willing or able to do. And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often compensate (弥补) by increasing desire for food and slowing down metabolism (新陈代谢), which over time limits how many pounds we lose. When exercise fails to meet our weight-loss expectations, we often stop working out. Perhaps the biggest problem with exercising to drop pounds is that it turns physical activity into punishment — a price we have to pay for a slimmer body. How many times have you heard someone say “I’ll need to do extra exercise” after eating too much? We treat exercise as a form of self-punishment for being “bad”. In this case, we’re unlikely to keep doing it for very long. The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight. 8. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Useless. B. Necessary. C. Basic. D. Painful. 9. What can we learn about the combination of dieting and exercising? A. It’s much less effective than dieting alone. B. It’s much more useful within six months. C. It shows little advantage after six months. D. It has an impressive advance after a year. 10. Why does the body’s compensation mechanism affect weight loss? A. It increases people’s hunger and slows down metabolism. B. It takes people shorter time to burn more calories. C. It helps people to do more exercise to lose weight. D. It makes people pay more attention to their well-being. 11. What is the author’s recommended approach to exercise? A. Use exercise as a warning. B. Focus on health rather than weight. C. Avoid exercise when you’re upset. D. Combine proper exercise with diet. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了运动对减肥的效果及其局限性，指出单纯依靠运动减肥效果不佳，并建议人们应更关注健康而非体重。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第二段“exercise is typically futile for weight loss”（运动对减肥通常是futile)”以及后文举例“Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your hard work of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda.(以走路为例。一个150磅的人走路30分钟，平均会燃烧大约140卡路里。这相当于一罐苏打——这并不是对你付出的时间和努力的最佳回报。直接跳过苏打水要容易得多。)”说明燃烧140卡路里仅等于一罐苏打水，这表明运动对减肥来说通常是没用的，“futile”意为“无用的”。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Researchers found that a combination of dieting and exercising produced no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months(研究者发现6个月内，饮食加运动的效果并不比单纯节食更好)”及“ At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advance, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average.(在12个月时，饮食和锻炼的结合显示出了一些进步，但进步很小——平均约4磅。)”可知，6个月后其优势微乎其微。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often compensate (弥补) by increasing desire for food and slowing down metabolism (新陈代谢), which over time limits how many pounds we lose.(即使我们设法付出这么多努力，我们的身体通常会通过增加对食物的欲望和减缓新陈代谢来补偿，随着时间的推移，这限制了我们能够掉的磅数。)”可知，这一机制会阻碍减重。故选A。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight”（结论是当我们关注健康而非体重时，更可能积极对待并坚持运动)”可推知，作者建议以健康为核心。故选B。 D For many professional athletes, retirement (退役) means saying goodbye to training and competitions. But for Shang Chunsong, former captain of China’s national women’s gymnastics team and an Olympic bronze medalist, it means the beginning of an exciting journey in another sport-parkour (跑酷) . On Nov 17, 28-year-old Shang won the gold medal in women’s freestyle at the Parkour World Championships in Japan, becoming the first Chinese athlete to win a world championship in parkour. Before becoming a rising star in parkour Shang had a great career in gymnastics, marked by both success and regrets. She joined the national gymnastics team in 2010 and became the captain of the women’s team. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Shang helped China bring home the bronze medal in the team event. However, she finished fourth in the women’s individual all- around competition, missing out on a medal. Such regrets became a burden (负担) for Shang. Although she had many victories in national competitions, she has never won a world championship. She retired from gymnastics in 2022 and decided to switch to parkour, an exciting extreme sport. Years of hard training in gymnastics prepares Shang’s move to parkour, as both sports require skills and flexibility (灵活性) . Compared to the strict rules of gymnastics, parkour has a more open style, giving Shang a strong sense of freedom. However, “the biggest challenge of the extreme sport is overcoming fear,” Shang said. Parkour landings occur on hard surfaces, greatly increasing the risk of injury. While parkour training often leaves Shang injured, she continues to chase her passion. Her next goal is to win gold at the next World Games. As she said, “I dream of seeing parkour become an Olympic event one day — hopefully while I’m still competing”. 12. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To describe the common challenges athletes face after retirement. B. To provide detailed background on Shang’s gymnastics career. C. To compare the difficulty between gymnastics and parkour. D. To introduce Shang’s unusual career shift from gymnastics to parkour. 13. According to Shang Chunsong, what is the biggest challenge in parkour? A. Facing the fear of getting injured. B. Following strict scoring rules. C. Lacking previous relevant experience. D. Balancing it with her past gymnastics career. 14. What can be inferred about Shang’s future plan? A. She hopes to coach young gymnasts in China. B. She plans to retire after the next World Games. C. She wants to compete until parkour enters the Olympics. D. She wants to focus on winning more national titles. 15. What can we learn from Shang’s story? A. Success in one sport ensures quick success in another. B. Past regrets can be turned into a new beginning. C. Overcoming fear and training hard can lead to new achievements. D. Older athletes should take up parkour to feel free. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述体操名将商春松退役后转战跑酷，斩获世界冠军并追逐新梦想的励志故事。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“For many professional athletes, retirement (退役) means saying goodbye to training and competitions. But for Shang Chunsong, former captain of China’s national women’s gymnastics team and an Olympic bronze medalist, it means the beginning of an exciting journey in another sport- parkour (跑酷) .(对许多职业运动员来说，退役意味着告别训练和比赛。但对于前中国女子体操队队长、奥运铜牌得主商春松而言，这意味着开启了另一项运动——跑酷的精彩旅程。)”可知，该段通过对比职业运动员和商春松退役后的不同选择，引出她从体操转向跑酷的非凡职业转变。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“However, “the biggest challenge of the extreme sport is overcoming fear,” Shang said. Parkour landings occur on hard surfaces, greatly increasing the risk of injury.(然而，商春松表示：“这项极限运动最大的挑战是克服恐惧”跑酷的落地是在坚硬的地面上，大大增加了受伤的风险。)”可知，商春松认为跑酷最大的挑战是克服受伤带来的恐惧。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“As she said, “I dream of seeing parkour become an Olympic event one day — hopefully while I’m still competing”.(她表示：“我梦想有一天能看到跑酷成为奥运会项目——希望那时我还在参赛”)”可知，商春松希望一直参赛直到跑酷成为奥运会项目。故选C项。 15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Years of hard training in gymnastics prepares Shang’s move to parkour, as both sports require skills and flexibility (灵活性) . Compared to the strict rules of gymnastics, parkour has a more open style, giving Shang a strong sense of freedom. However, “the biggest challenge of the extreme sport is overcoming fear,” Shang said. Parkour landings occur on hard surfaces, greatly increasing the risk of injury.(多年的体操刻苦训练，为商春松转战跑酷项目奠定了基础，因为这两项运动都需要技巧与灵活性。与体操严苛的规则相比，跑酷的运动风格更为自由开放，让商春松感受到了强烈的自在感。然而，商春松坦言：“这项极限运动最大的挑战，就是克服内心的恐惧。” 跑酷的落地动作需要在坚硬的地面完成，这大大增加了受伤的风险)”可知，商春松提到跑酷需克服恐惧，以及多年体操训练为其打下基础；可知，克服恐惧并刻苦训练能够让人取得新的成就。故选C项。 第二节 七选五 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。 Close friends are connected to a happy and meaningful life.

Mr. Mike, his English teacher, had inspired him to participate in the speech contest.“ Your pronunciation is great,” Mr. Mike had said, patting him on the shoulder. Yet Jack understood his own reality: he often forgot his lines (台词) when speaking in public or when he was nervous. Every afternoon after class, Jack stayed in the empty classroom, practicing alone. He marked his lines with colored pens and spoke the lines to the silent walls. Sometimes he pretended Mr. Mike was sitting in the front row, nodding approvingly. The big day finally arrived. Jack’s legs were shaking as he waited on the backstage. Through the curtains, he saw the sea of faces in the hall. Suddenly, a staff member rushed in.“ We need to cut two minutes from each speech” Jack’s heart sank — his carefully timed lines now had a gaping hole. He didn’t know what contents should be cut off. He froze there. Just at that time, Mr. Mike appeared beside him.“ Think of it as a chance to adapt to the change,” the teacher said softly.“ If you don’t know what to talk about, you can TELL YOUR STORY.” But Jack’s mind went blank. When his name was called, he stumbled (跌跌撞撞) onto the stage, microphone trembling (颤抖) in his hand. The first sentence came out shakily. Then disaster struck. Jack forgot all his lines. The audience shifted in their seats and waited for his next sentence. With so many eyes fixed on him, his face went red and his throat tightened. He wanted to run from the stage. 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。 Just then, he noticed Mr. Mike looking at him full of expectation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When he finished his speech, a great round of applause filled the hall. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Just then, he noticed Mr. Mike looking at him full of expectation. Mr. Mike’s eyes sparkled with encouragement, and he made a gentle “come on” gesture with his hand. Jack’s racing heart slowed a little — he thought of those afternoons practicing alone, the colored marks on his script, and his teacher’s constant support. Taking a shaky but deep breath, he gripped the microphone tightly, his fingers no longer trembling. Instead of struggling to recall the prepared lines, he started talking about his fear of public speaking and how he’d pushed himself to practice every day. His voice grew steadier as he spoke from the heart, eyes shining with sincerity. When he finished his speech, a great round of applause filled the hall. Jack stood frozen for a moment, unable to believe the warm response. The audience’s cheers echoed in his ears, and he felt a surge of joy and relief rushing through his body. He bowed deeply, his face breaking into a bright smile. As he stepped off the stage, Mr. Mike pulled him into a firm hug. “You told the most wonderful story,” the teacher said proudly. Jack’s nervousness had vanished completely, replaced by a sense of achievement he would never forget. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了学校一年一度的才艺表演前一周，Jack因英语老师Mr. Mike的鼓励准备参加演讲比赛。尽管他努力练习，但比赛当天因需缩短演讲时间而紧张忘词。站在台上面对众多观众，他大脑一片空白，想要逃离舞台。此时，他注意到Mr. Mike充满期待地看着他。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“就在这时，他注意到迈克先生满怀期待地看着他。”可知，第一段可描写Jack在看到迈克先生期待的眼神后，受到鼓舞，调整情绪开始演讲。 ②由第二段首句内容“当他结束演讲时，全场响起了热烈的掌声。”可知，第二段可描写演讲结束后，Jack的反应以及迈克先生对他的肯定，还有Jack的内心感受。 2.续写线索：杰克忘词尴尬——发现迈克先生的期待目光——迈克先生鼓励——杰克镇定演讲——演讲结束获热烈掌声——杰克震惊释然——鞠躬致谢——迈克先生拥抱肯定——杰克收获成就感。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①紧握：grip/grasp ②颤抖：tremble/shiver ③回响：echo/resound 情绪类 ①恐惧：fear/horror ②坚定的：steady/firm 【点睛】【高分句型1】Taking a shaky but deep breath, he gripped the microphone tightly, his fingers no longer trembling.（运用了现在分词作状语） 【高分句型2】As he stepped off the stage, Mr. Mike pulled him into a firm hug.（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 $ 定远育才学校2025-2026学年高一(下)开学考试 英语试题 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。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.Who is the woman probably talking to?

They are introducing their parents to a whole new world. These children are influencing their families in great ways, leading parents that used to stick to old habits to try new hobbies or goods. In July, public relations company DKC made a report on parents of this generation, which stressed the very trend (趋势，潮流). According to the report, many parents are now welcoming new experiences based on their children’s suggestions. How Gen Alpha Kids Are Driving New Trends The report calls Gen Alpha “technology-aware” and “culture-shaping” — two traits (特征) that make these kids natural trendsetters for their families. It explains that kids in this age group aren’t just following trends themselves; they’re actively encouraging their parents to step out and try new things. For example, 66% of parents say they’ve tried different foods on the advice of a Gen Alpha kid. And 40% of the parents surveyed say they’ve signed up for a subscription (订阅) service at their kid’s suggestion. (Find more examples from the survey in the bar graph below.) DKC GEN ALPHA REPORT 2025 The Economic (经济的) Influence of Young Voices The numbers show that kids are having a great economic influence. Members of Gen Alpha may not be old enough for part-time jobs or make some money in other ways on their own, but their young voices carry weight when it comes to family spending. “It’s not just thinking about what an 8 to 14-year-old is going to buy or ask their parents to buy for them,” DKC president Matthew Traub said. “It’s how they’re influencing the whole family’s spending decisions.” 1. What is the DKC’s report mainly about? A. The popular hobbies of Gen Alpha kids. B. The work that the DKC company has done. C. The secret behind the name “Gen Alpha”. D. The effects that Gen Alpha kids have on parents. 2. In which of the following do Gen Alpha kids have the strongest influence? A. Trying different foods. B. Watching different sports. C. Buying goods during sales. D. Using new beauty things. 3. How do Gen Alpha kids influence economy? A. They bring about new jobs. B. They spend a lot on themselves. C. They shape the family spending habits. D. They prefer to make money independently. B St. Bernard Parish firefighter Nixon was driving home with his wife after a celebration when he noticed some smoke near the Mississippi state line. As he got closer, he saw a car that had crashed into a large truck — its body was twisted, and the tyres (轮胎) were already burning. It seemed all resulted from the turn the car driver had suddenly made. The car was soon catching fire, and Nixon knew someone might be trapped inside. Quickly, he pulled over and rushed toward the burning car. First, he knocked at the driver’s window, calling out to check if the driver was okay and if anyone else was in the car, but there was no answer. His heart raced a little with fear, but he pushed the feeling aside; he circled to the right passenger side, his attention fixed only on getting the person out. By then, the fire had spread to the car’s inside, and thick smoke rose. Nixon used his hands to try breaking the windshield (挡风玻璃). When the windshield finally broke, he reached in, held the driver who had passed out, lifted her up, and pushed her out through the broken opening. Just as he got out of the car safely, the car was totally on fire. Moments later, firefighters from St. Tammany Fire Protection District arrived, but the car was already burned down. The woman was rushed to a New Orleans hospital. Nixon’s hands were treated for the cuts made when he broke the windshield, but he said the experience felt deeply meaningful: “Saving her life made all the pain worth it,” he noted, adding that the act of rescuing her had lifted his spirits in an unexpected way. 4. What probably caused the accident? A. The car driver lost control due to heavy smoke. B. The car driver made a sudden change in direction. C. The large truck stopped unexpectedly on the road. D. The car’s tyres broke before reaching the state line. 5. What happened in the rescue process? A. The car driver came back to life in time. B The truck driver called for help immediately. C. Nixon got injured when breaking the windshield. D. Local firefighters arrived soon and put out the fire. 6. Which words can best describe Nixon? A. Outgoing and polite. B. Humorous and careful. C. Patient and creative. D. Brave and responsible. 7. What message does the text deliver? A. Car accidents are common near state lines. B. Firefighters should always put others’ safety first. C. Helping others can bring a strong sense of satisfaction. D. Timely medical treatment is key to survivors of accidents. C Many of us start exercising in the hope of losing unwanted pounds. Unquestionably, aiming to be more active is a good thing. But if the main reason is to lose weight, your decision could very well come to nothing. For starters, exercise is typically futile for weight loss. Take walking for example. A 150-pound person who walks for 30 minutes will burn, on average, around 140 calories. That’s equal to one can of soda — not exactly a great return on your hard work of time and effort. It’s much easier just to skip the soda. When exercise is added to a diet, the results are equally unimpressive. Researchers found that a combination of dieting and exercising produced no greater weight loss than dieting alone after six months. At 12 months, the diet-and-exercise combination showed an advance, but it was slight — about 4 pounds on average. In studies where exercise has produced meaningful weight loss, participants burned at least 400 to 500 calories per workout on five or more days a week. To achieve that, a 150-pound person would need to walk a minimum of 90 minutes or run 30 minutes per day. In short, these workouts need to go well beyond what most of us are willing or able to do. And even if we manage to make that much effort, our bodies often compensate (弥补) by increasing desire for food and slowing down metabolism (新陈代谢), which over time limits how many pounds we lose. When exercise fails to meet our weight-loss expectations, we often stop working out. Perhaps the biggest problem with exercising to drop pounds is that it turns physical activity into punishment — a price we have to pay for a slimmer body. How many times have you heard someone say “I’ll need to do extra exercise” after eating too much? We treat exercise as a form of self-punishment for being “bad”. In this case, we’re unlikely to keep doing it for very long. The conclusion is that we’re more likely to treat exercise positively and actually do it when we focus on our well-being rather than our weight. 8. What does the underlined word “futile” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Useless. B. Necessary. C. Basic. D. Painful. 9. What can we learn about the combination of dieting and exercising? A. It’s much less effective than dieting alone. B. It’s much more useful within six months. C. It shows little advantage after six months. D. It has an impressive advance after a year. 10. Why does the body’s compensation mechanism affect weight loss? A. It increases people’s hunger and slows down metabolism. B. It takes people shorter time to burn more calories. C. It helps people to do more exercise to lose weight. D. It makes people pay more attention to their well-being. 11. What is the author’s recommended approach to exercise? A. Use exercise as a warning. B. Focus on health rather than weight. C. Avoid exercise when you’re upset. D. Combine proper exercise with diet. D For many professional athletes, retirement (退役) means saying goodbye to training and competitions. But for Shang Chunsong, former captain of China’s national women’s gymnastics team and an Olympic bronze medalist, it means the beginning of an exciting journey in another sport-parkour (跑酷) . On Nov 17, 28-year-old Shang won the gold medal in women’s freestyle at the Parkour World Championships in Japan, becoming the first Chinese athlete to win a world championship in parkour. Before becoming a rising star in parkour, Shang had a great career in gymnastics, marked by both success and regrets. She joined the national gymnastics team in 2010 and became the captain of the women’s team. At the 2016 Rio Olympics, Shang helped China bring home the bronze medal in the team event. However, she finished fourth in the women’s individual all- around competition, missing out on a medal. Such regrets became a burden (负担) for Shang. Although she had many victories in national competitions, she has never won a world championship. She retired from gymnastics in 2022 and decided to switch to parkour, an exciting extreme sport. Years of hard training in gymnastics prepares Shang’s move to parkour, as both sports require skills and flexibility (灵活性) . Compared to the strict rules of gymnastics, parkour has a more open style, giving Shang a strong sense of freedom. However, “the biggest challenge of the extreme sport is overcoming fear,” Shang said. Parkour landings occur on hard surfaces, greatly increasing the risk of injury. While parkour training often leaves Shang injured, she continues to chase her passion. Her next goal is to win gold at the next World Games. As she said, “I dream of seeing parkour become an Olympic event one day — hopefully while I’m still competing”. 12. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To describe the common challenges athletes face after retirement. B To provide detailed background on Shang’s gymnastics career. C. To compare the difficulty between gymnastics and parkour. D.

Following strict scoring rules. C. Lacking previous relevant experience. D. Balancing it with her past gymnastics career. 14. What can be inferred about Shang’s future plan? A. She hopes to coach young gymnasts in China. B. She plans to retire after the next World Games. C. She wants to compete until parkour enters the Olympics. D. She wants to focus on winning more national titles. 15. What can we learn from Shang’s story? A. Success in one sport ensures quick success in another. B. Past regrets can be turned into a new beginning. C. Overcoming fear and training hard can lead to new achievements. D. Older athletes should take up parkour to feel free. 第二节 七选五 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。 Close friends are connected to a happy and meaningful life.

Mr. Mike, his English teacher, had inspired him to participate in the speech contest.“ Your pronunciation is great,” Mr. Mike had said, patting him on the shoulder. Yet Jack understood his own reality: he often forgot his lines (台词) when speaking in public or when he was nervous. Every afternoon after class, Jack stayed in the empty classroom, practicing alone. He marked his lines with colored pens and spoke the lines to the silent walls. Sometimes he pretended Mr. Mike was sitting in the front row, nodding approvingly. The big day finally arrived. Jack’s legs were shaking as he waited on the backstage. Through the curtains, he saw the sea of faces in the hall. Suddenly, a staff member rushed in.“ We need to cut two minutes from each speech” Jack’s heart sank — his carefully timed lines now had a gaping hole. He didn’t know what contents should be cut off. He froze there. Just at that time, Mr. Mike appeared beside him.“ Think of it as a chance to adapt to the change,” the teacher said softly.“ If you don’t know what to talk about, you can TELL YOUR STORY.” But Jack’s mind went blank. When his name was called, he stumbled (跌跌撞撞) onto the stage, microphone trembling (颤抖) in his hand. The first sentence came out shakily. Then disaster struck. Jack forgot all his lines. The audience shifted in their seats and waited for his next sentence. With so many eyes fixed on him, his face went red and his throat tightened. He wanted to run from the stage. 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。 Just then, he noticed Mr. Mike looking at him full of expectation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When he finished his speech, a great round of applause filled the hall. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
