B In 1967, Kathrine Switzer made history by becoming the first woman to run the Boston Marathon with an official race number, despite the efforts of the race director to remove her from the course. Switzer became a pioneer for women’s sports, a journalist, an author, and a TV commentator. She won the 1974 New York City Marathon and led the effort to include the women’s marathon as an Olympic event. Born on January 5, 1947, in Germany, Switzer moved to the United States in 1949 and grew up in Virginia, where she discovered sports as a teenager. She took up running seriously while attending the University of Lynchburg and then moved to Syracuse University, where she trained with the men’s cross- country team. During this time, Switzer decided to run the Boston Marathon. Switzer wore bib (号码布) number 261 on April 19, 1967, the snowy day she changed the face of women’s athletics. Around four miles into the race, race director John Semple attempted to remove this 20-year-old journalism student, shouting, “Get out of my race!” Thankfully, her boyfriend, Tom Miller, blocked him, allowing Switzer to finish the race. This drove her to become a champion for women’s athletics. In 2015, Switzer launched a global non- profit called 261 Fearless with an ambassador program, a club training system, and events. 261 Fearless uses running as a means to empower women to overcome life challenges and practice healthy living. For the 2017 Boston Marathon — her ninth time running the race, and the 50th anniversary (周年) of her first time — she was leading a team of runners from 261 Fearless. Rather than being the only woman officially in the race like in 1967, she was joined by over 13, 700 women- almost half of the total runners. A celebrated author and commentator, Switzer has received numerous honors for her contributions to sports and continues to inspire generations of female athletes. 4. What historic first did Kathrine Switzer achieve in 1967? A. The first woman to run the Boston Marathon officially. B. The first woman to react against the race director. C. The first woman to join the men’s running team. D. The first woman to compete in the Olympics. 5. Why did Switzer’s boyfriend step in during the 1967 Boston Marathon? A. To run alongside her. B. To block the journalists. C. To support her as a coach. D. To stop her from being removed. 6. What does 261 Fearless aim to do? A. To promote men’s sports. B. To raise funds for charities. C. To organize competitive races. D. To inspire women through sports. 7. What does Switzer’s 2017 Boston Marathon run show? A. The spirit of teamwork in marathons. B. Her commitment to charity promotion. C. The growing recognition of women in athletics. D. Her renewed focus on personal achievement. C Giving has many benefits, but it isn’t always easy. For example, if you suffer from depression (抑郁), you may find it hard to get up in the morning, let alone help others. But new research by Shenzhen and Peking Universities finds there may be a clever way to give. In the study, researchers arranged hundreds of young, depressed adults to either make daily micro-donations for two months or to be on a waiting list. Told that giving small donations helps improve society, participants were invited to donate at least one cent per day for the next two months to any charity. Before and every week during those two months, all participants filled out questionnaires that were about their possible depression-related aspects: depressed feelings, lack of joy, physical discomforts, sleepiness, and interpersonal problems, as well as how often they felt positive and negative feelings. After analyzing the results, the researchers found people who donated daily, even as little as one cent a day, felt significantly more positive than people on the waiting list. This, in turn, seemed to explain why they also felt less depressed each week. In other words, making donations, even small ones, helps improve mood (心情). And, though social connection wasn’t necessary for deriving benefit, the study suggests donating could help depressed people who might otherwise refuse to practice kindness toward others, according to Jinting Liu, one of the study’s coauthors. Liu suggests this could be due to the fact that if you tend to feel depressed, focusing on others for a while gives you a break from thinking about yourself and your shortcomings. It’s also possible that giving makes you feel better about yourself and that prevents the negative self-talk common to depressives. Interestingly, although people who gave more generously felt a bit happier and less depressed than those who gave less, the difference wasn’t big enough to be significant. This means even people with low means can make use of this simple activity. “Just doing something nice for others is great,” says Liu. “The amount of money isn’t the key part; it’s really about the kindness behind it.” 8. What information did the researchers collect about all participants? A. Their levels of depressive signs. B. Their willingness to donate. C. The quality of their social life. D. The frequency of their sleepiness. 9. What does the underlined word “deriving” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Using. B. Reducing. C. Doubting. D. Getting. 10. Why might giving help depressed individuals? A. It ensures comfortable talks. B. It reduces self-focus time. C. It encourages physical activity. D. It improves interpersonal relationships. 11. What can be learned according to the study? A. Giving is difficult to practice. B. Money amount determines results. C. Tiny kindnesses remain helpful. D. Generosity is the key source of joy. D It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms. An earworm can stay in your head after you listen to the tune play out loud. But it can also occur if something makes you remember the song — like visiting the place where you first heard it. Scientists have studied earworms for years. They have found that some tunes are more likely to stay in your head than others. For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody (旋律), and have special changes in pitch (音高). By examining brain scans, scientists have learned what happens in your head when you have an earworm. When you hear music—or even imagine hearing it—part of the brain called the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) becomes active. This part processes sounds and sends messages to other parts of the brain connected to memory and feelings. Some scientists think your brain can keep sending these signals for a short time, which causes the song to repeat in your mind. What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song in the first place? Scientists are still not sure. But long ago, before writing was invented, we passed information through songs. So, we may have developed a habit of keeping music in our heads to help remember important information. Whatever the reason, when a tune gets stuck, it can be really annoying! Luckily, there may be ways to get rid of an earworm. You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears! 12. What is an “earworm” according to the text? A. A real insect that lives in human ears. B. A tool scientists use to study memory. C A type of brain disease affecting the auditory cortex. D. A song that repeats uncontrollably in one’s mind. 13. What feature makes a tune more likely become an earworm? A It is slow and quiet. B. It is fast with catchy tunes. C. It has no melody. D. It is very long. 14. According to the text, how can we free ourselves from an earworm? A. By listening to the same song repeatedly. B. By keeping away from all kinds of music. C. By doing activities that take our attention away. D. By visiting the place where we first heard it. 15. What is your understanding of the last sentence? A. It’s good news. B. It’s hard to believe. C. It’s an alarming fact. D. It’s an annoying message. 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从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。 Our friends Nick and Carol moved to Australia in 2017.

He had a book in his hand, with tears in his eyes. “We have all got a poem to learn,” said the boy, whose name was Tom Blair, “and the one who says it best is to get a prize from the teacher. But I don’t think I can learn it.” “Why not?” said Grandma. “The boys say that I can’t, and that I need not try,” said Tom in a sad tone. “Don’t mind what the boys say. Let them see that you can learn it,” said his friend. “But I don’t think I can,” said Tom, “it is so long, and some of the words are so hard. But I would like to learn the poem as well as I can; for the boys laugh at me, and call me ‘Slow Tom’.” “Well, dear,” said Grandma, in a kind voice, “if you are slow, and can’t help it, try to be ‘slow and sure’. Look at the snail (蜗牛) on the wall; how slow it is! And yet, if you watch it, you will see it will get to the top in time. So just try to learn a few lines each day, and you may gain the prize in the end. And when you feel like losing heart, think of the snail on the wall.” After Grandma had said this, she went on her way. And Tom thought that, though he could not keep up with the boys, he might run a race with the snail. So he determined to try to learn his task by the time the snail got to the top of the wall. At last, the day came. After the teacher called upon five or six boys to repeat the poem, it came to Tom’s turn. Regardless of the unfriendly whispers and giggles (咯咯地笑) among the boys, Tom closed his eyes and started to recite the poem, slow and sure, with a powerful voice. Everyone was astonished at the fluency with which he spoke. The moment he finished, a shower of applause exploded. “Well done! Tom! Well done! Tell me how you made it!” said the teacher with great joy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 惠州市华罗庚中学2025-2026学年第一学期10月质量检测 英语试题 考试时间：120分钟 满分：130分 第一部分 阅读(共两节，满分60分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题3分，满分45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 Boot Camp for KIDS FIRST!

C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍深大与北大的研究发现小额日常捐赠能改善抑郁人群的情绪，并阐释其原因和研究的核心结论。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Before and every week during those two months, all participants filled out questionnaires that were about their possible depression-related aspects: depressed feelings, lack of joy, physical discomforts, sleepiness, and interpersonal problems, as well as how often they felt positive and negative feelings.(在这两个月的研究开始前以及期间的每周，所有参与者都需要填写调查问卷，内容涉及他们可能存在的各类抑郁相关表现：抑郁情绪、愉悦感缺失、身体不适、嗜睡、人际关系问题，同时也包含他们产生积极和消极情绪的频率)”可知，研究人员收集的是参与者各类抑郁相关症状的表现程度。故选A项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“In other words, making donations, even small ones, helps improve mood (心情). (换言之，进行捐赠 —— 哪怕是小额捐赠，也有助于改善心情)可知，该研究的合著者刘锦婷表示，尽管获得这种益处并不需要借助社交联系，但研究表明，捐赠行为能够帮助那些原本可能不愿向他人表达善意的抑郁人群，所以，“deriving”含义为“获得”，与D项Getting一致。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Liu suggests this could be due to the fact that if you tend to feel depressed, focusing on others for a while gives you a break from thinking about yourself and your shortcomings.(刘锦婷认为，这可能是因为如果你容易感到抑郁，暂时关注他人能让你从思考自己和自身缺点中抽离出来)”可知，捐赠能帮助抑郁人群的原因是它减少了人们关注自我的时间。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“After analyzing the results, the researchers found people who donated daily, even as little as one cent a day, felt significantly more positive than people on the waiting list. This, in turn, seemed to explain why they also felt less depressed each week.(在分析结果后，研究人员发现，那些每天都进行捐赠，哪怕每天仅捐一美分的人，比在等待名单上的人明显感觉更积极。反过来，这似乎也解释了为什么他们每周的抑郁感也会减轻)”以及最后一段中的“Interestingly, although people who gave more generously felt a bit happier and less depressed than those who gave less, the difference wasn’t big enough to be significant. This means even people with low means can make use of this simple activity. “Just doing something nice for others is great,” says Liu. “The amount of money isn’t the key part; it’s really about the kindness behind it.”(有趣的是，尽管捐赠更为慷慨的人比捐赠较少的人感觉更快乐、抑郁感更轻，但这种差异还不够大，并不显著。这意味着即便经济条件不好的人也能参与这项简单的活动。刘（研究人员之一）表示：“为他人做点好事就很棒。钱的数额并非关键，真正重要的是其背后的善意”)”可知，这项研究表明哪怕是微小的善意举动，对改善抑郁情绪依然是有帮助的。故选C项。 D It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms. An earworm can stay in your head after you listen to the tune play out loud. But it can also occur if something makes you remember the song — like visiting the place where you first heard it. Scientists have studied earworms for years. They have found that some tunes are more likely to stay in your head than others. For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody (旋律), and have special changes in pitch (音高). By examining brain scans, scientists have learned what happens in your head when you have an earworm. When you hear music—or even imagine hearing it—part of the brain called the auditory cortex (听觉皮层) becomes active. This part processes sounds and sends messages to other parts of the brain connected to memory and feelings. Some scientists think your brain can keep sending these signals for a short time, which causes the song to repeat in your mind. What would cause the human brain to repeat the same song in the first place? Scientists are still not sure. But long ago, before writing was invented, we passed information through songs. So, we may have developed a habit of keeping music in our heads to help remember important information. Whatever the reason, when a tune gets stuck, it can be really annoying! Luckily, there may be ways to get rid of an earworm. You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears! 12. What is an “earworm” according to the text? A. A real insect that lives in human ears. B. A tool scientists use to study memory. C. A type of brain disease affecting the auditory cortex. D. A song that repeats uncontrollably in one’s mind. 13. What feature makes a tune more likely become an earworm? A. It is slow and quiet. B. It is fast with catchy tunes. C. It has no melody. D. It is very long. 14. According to the text, how can we free ourselves from an earworm? A. By listening to the same song repeatedly. B. By keeping away from all kinds of music. C. By doing activities that take our attention away. D. By visiting the place where we first heard it. 15. What is your understanding of the last sentence? A. It’s good news. B. It’s hard to believe. C. It’s an alarming fact. D. It’s an annoying message. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了耳虫现象、其成因、相关研究及应对方法。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“It can be fun to hear a catchy tune (曲调) in your head — until that tune begins to play over and over again! Songs that get stuck in our brain are called earworms.(在脑海中听到一首朗朗上口的曲子是一件很有趣的事情——直到这首曲子开始一遍又一遍地播放！萦绕在我们大脑里的歌曲被称为耳虫)”可知，耳虫指的是一首歌不受控制地在我们的脑海里重复的现象。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“For example, earworms are often faster, have an easy-to-remember melody ( 旋律 ), and have special changes in pitch (音高).(例如，耳虫通常节奏更快、旋律易记，且在音高上有特殊变化)”推知，节奏快、曲调朗朗上口的曲子更容易成为耳虫。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“You can listen to another song or do a puzzle to stop yourself from concentrating on it. Or try chewing gum, which affects how your brain remembers music. Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own.(你可以听另一首歌或做一个谜题来阻止自己集中注意力。或者试试嚼口香糖，它会影响大脑对音乐的记忆。即使你什么都不做，一首被卡住的歌最终也会自己消失)”可知，可以通过做转移注意力的事情来摆脱耳虫。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Even if you do nothing, a stuck song will eventually go away on its own. Now, that must be music to your ears!(即使你什么都不做，一首被卡住的歌最终也会自己消失。这下，你肯定觉得如闻仙乐吧！)”可知，即使什么都不做耳虫最终也会消失。由此推知，最后一句话指的是这（耳虫最终会自己消失）是一个好消息。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题3分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从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。 Our friends Nick and Carol moved to Australia in 2017.

We had left England in the cold and rain, and arrived to find Sydney warm and sunny. We spent our days relaxing on the beach, or going into the city to explore. ____16____ Going back home to England after our trip was really hard. That winter felt very long and cold, and all I could think of was the warm sunshine and big open spaces of Australia. In England, we both worked long hours to afford to live in our little house. ____17____ When I thought of Nick and Carol’s spacious house in Sydney, and how they both walked to their jobs each morning, I kept thinking to myself, “I want to be there!” Slowly, we started talking about the idea of moving to Australia. We’d had enough of short, cold, wet days and small houses in England. The crowds and queues of people at home were too much. ____18____ Immigration (移民) to Australia is a long process and expensive. It was very exciting when our applications were finally accepted. When we arrived, and flew over the city of Perth, I saw the bright sunshine and the spacious houses and swimming pools below. ____19____ The ocean was shining blue. It felt right. It felt like home. There are things I miss about England of course, but I do enjoy all the space in Australia, and the relaxed outdoors lifestyle. ____20____ To visit, definitely — but not to live. Australia feels like home now. A. It was time for a change. B. I saw forests and countryside, too. C. Will we be going back to England? D. We had hour-long journeys by car to get to work.

He had a book in his hand, with tears in his eyes. “We have all got a poem to learn,” said the boy, whose name was Tom Blair, “and the one who says it best is to get a prize from the teacher. But I don’t think I can learn it.” “Why not?” said Grandma. “The boys say that I can’t, and that I need not try,” said Tom in a sad tone. “Don’t mind what the boys say. Let them see that you can learn it,” said his friend. “But I don’t think I can,” said Tom, “it is so long, and some of the words are so hard. But I would like to learn the poem as well as I can; for the boys laugh at me, and call me ‘Slow Tom’.” “Well, dear,” said Grandma, in a kind voice, “if you are slow, and can’t help it, try to be ‘slow and sure’. Look at the snail (蜗牛) on the wall; how slow it is! And yet, if you watch it, you will see it will get to the top in time. So just try to learn a few lines each day, and you may gain the prize in the end. And when you feel like losing heart, think of the snail on the wall.” After Grandma had said this, she went on her way. And Tom thought that, though he could not keep up with the boys, he might run a race with the snail. So he determined to try to learn his task by the time the snail got to the top of the wall. At last, the day came. After the teacher called upon five or six boys to repeat the poem, it came to Tom’s turn. Regardless of the unfriendly whispers and giggles (咯咯地笑) among the boys, Tom closed his eyes and started to recite the poem, slow and sure, with a powerful voice. Everyone was astonished at the fluency with which he spoke. The moment he finished, a shower of applause exploded. “Well done! Tom! Well done! Tell me how you made it!” said the teacher with great joy. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “Well done! Tom! Well done! Tell me how you made it!” said the teacher with great joy. Tom smiled brightly and pointed to the wall outside the window, where the snail had just reached the top. “I learned it from the snail, sir,” he said softly but firmly. “Grandma told me to be slow and sure, just like it. I learned a few lines every day, never giving up, even when the boys laughed at me.” The teacher nodded approvingly, handing him the prize. The boys fell silent, their giggles replaced by admiration for the boy who’d beaten them with patience. 【解析】 【导语】本文以Tom学习诗歌为线索展开，讲述了Tom因被同学嘲笑“迟钝”，对背诵诗歌失去信心，在奶奶的鼓励下，以墙上的蜗牛为榜样，坚持每天学习几行，最终在课堂上流畅背出诗歌、获得老师奖励和同学认可的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由段落首句内容“‘做得好！Tom！做得好！告诉我你是怎么做到的！’老师高兴地说”可知，本段可描写Tom向老师说明成功的原因——借鉴蜗牛“慢而坚定”的精神，在奶奶鼓励下坚持每天学习，同时描写老师的反应、同学的态度转变，呼应前文奶奶的教导和Tom的努力。 2.续写线索：老师询问原因——Tom说明秘诀（蜗牛的启示还有奶奶的鼓励）——老师赞许并颁奖——同学态度转变 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①. 告诉：tell/inform ②. 放弃：give up/quit ③. 递给：hand/pass 情绪类 ①. 轻柔地：softly/gently ②. 坚定地：firmly/steadily 【点睛】[高分句型1].
