Let’s have a look at them together. Part-Time Tree Climber If you’re not afraid of climbing up trees and cutting the branches then this job might be perfect for you. You actually can work according to your own schedule. The part-time tree climber job could end up turning into a real full-time job. This might also be a great way to stay in good shape and work on those muscles. Fake (假的) Office Worker This is not an April Fool’s Day joke. One company fired several of their employees. However, in order to look good when certain clients came into the office they hired fake office workers. All they had to do was to just look busy at their desks and act like they knew exactly what they were doing. The amazing thing about this job is that they were paid US 15 an hour for being fake office workers! Mermaid (美人鱼) for a Birthday Party If you love mermaids or do not mind dressing up as one for a birthday party then this job might be good for you. Some women are looking for a mermaid at a July party and they actually pay US $ 150 for at least three hours. If it is needed, the costume will be provided for this job. Back Scratcher (挠背器/者) If you don’t want to buy a cheap back scratcher, you might want to hire someone to do it for you. Having a job as a back scratcher might sound easy enough, but actually it is not. You never know when you might accidentally hit that ache in a person’s back and cause him pain. 21．According to the text, the job of a part-time tree climber ________. A．is quite dangerous B．is well-paid C．can only be done part-time D．can help keep you healthy 22．What should fake office workers do? A．Communicate with clients all day B．Train other employees. C．Pretend to be working. D．Help the boss deal with problems. 23．Where can we most probably find this text? A．On a website about jobs. B．In a book about good companies. C．In an article on how to start a business. D．In a health magazine. B There comes a time for every family when the tables turn and the parent has to answer to the child. Mine came recently when my wife and I stayed with our elder son in Los Angeles. A whole week under his roof! “Dad, don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel told me seriously on our first night. I grabbed extra paper towels to wipe the kitchen counter and was instructed to use the dishcloth. Not to leave my ugly walking shoes sitting out. Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning — it will warm up when we get to the park. Why drink so much sparkling water? And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga? At first I wondered how I’d raised an awkward son. Then I remembered how often I threw the golden rule of parenting at Nathaniel and his siblings when they were young. “Someday, you’ll have a home of your own and can live however you want,” I’d say. “Until then, you’ll have to do as we ask.” And so I smilingly did as Nathaniel said, but with a touch of playfulness, like hiding a separate roll of paper towels into the storeroom, or moving one of his favorite photographs a few inches. There were perks to playing beta to Nathaniel’s alpha. He cleaned dishes after dinner. He also set our daily outings. And he willingly drove everywhere, sparing me the pain of Los Angeles traffic. We were walking along El Matador Beach our last afternoon and hit an extended patch of rocks — clearly the end of the line. Nathaniel guided me across one large stone to the next, patiently telling me where to place my feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was frightened, but after a couple hundred yards we made it to a fresh sandy stretch. “You did it! I’m really proud,” he said. It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood. 24．What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A．Nathaniel’s various rules. B．The father’s unhealthy lifestyles. C．Parent-child arguments. D．The father’s forgetfulness. 25．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 imply? A．Nathaniel could make detailed plans. B．Listening to Nathaniel brought benefits. C．Tricking Nathaniel made the author enjoyable. D．Nathaniel had to address many problems. 26．According to the last paragraph, what is an important quality to be a father? A．Selfless. B．Peaceful. C．Adventurous. D．Encouraging. 27．What does the author’s experience show? A．Do as the Romans do. B．Practice makes perfect. C．East or west, home is the best. D．The student becomes the teacher. C For anyone connected with a school, the last couple of weeks should have been a pile-up of plays, choir performances, and talent shows. But a report found, alarmingly, that 53% of primaries and 63% of secondaries that normally hold a festive concert at the end of the first term did not do so. It is deeply troubling that music is no longer being taught to 11-to-14-year-olds in more than half of state secondaries. And some children get as little as one day of music lesson a year. If this situation is allowed to continue, music-making will become the preserve of those who can afford it. And the intense competition for better academic performance has only sped up this trend. A survey published this month of more than 1, 300 music teachers found that a third of British primary schools are not singing, while a quarter have ceased instrumental lessons. Almost three-quarters of primary and two-thirds of secondary schools have cancelled extracurricular music. Though a sharp decline of music provision is due to various social factors, Ofsted appeared to put this down to schools themselves, rather than pointing the finger at the government’s silence to educators’ appeal. This is very sad and shortsighted. On the most basic level, music aids academic achievement. Research suggests that music-making improves speech and literacy. But academic progress is too narrow a standard of success. In her book, Joan Koenig argues that music is fundamental to a well-functioning society. Besides that, music-making nurtures sympathy and belonging. “People stand a much better chance of finding meaning and happiness in their lives if they feel that they belong,” as Koenig puts it. “Studies show that group musical practice can create and enhance this feeling. It is when people don’t have a sense of belonging that things go wrong.” In this time of uncertainty and fear, ensuring that all children can access music-making is a cause deserving meaningful support and attention from ministers. 28．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．Educators are appealing for investment. B．Schools merely value academic achievements. C．Music lessons are nearly absent from classrooms. D．Parents cannot afford students’ music lessons. 29．According to Ofsted, who is to blame for the affected music provision? A．The schools. B．The educators. C．The government. D．The researchers. 30．What does the underlined word “nurtures” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Promotes. B．Deserves. C．Symbolizes. D．Worsens. 31．What does the author mainly convey in the last paragraph? A．Music education is optional. B．Music education calls for backup. C．Music-making is tough. D．Music-making makes sense. D As new technologies, including AI, are becoming popular, they promise to change learning for the better. Already, there are AI-based tutoring (辅导) tools that can help learners. One 2024 study, led by the University of Oxford, found that school students in Ghana who used an AI-powered maths tutor through WhatsApp for half an hour, twice a week, over eight months had “higher” maths progress scores than those in a control group. “Until now, professional, personalised tutoring has been too expensive for people,” points out Joseph South, chief innovation officer at the International Society for Technology in Education. “AI-powered tutors can offer this experience for online learners at a low price.” However, there are still possible problems to solve. AI can present untrue things as fact, which could mean students might “learn” incorrect information. Similarly, AI can develop biases (偏见) based on the data (数据) used to train it, and possibly pass them on to learners. In addition, experts warn that any educational institution (机构) needs to have strict rules on what student personal information can be put into AI tools, to reduce privacy risks. But, to some, the biggest risk is to the learning process. “As students increasingly depend on AI tools, they may use them as quick answers, which will hurt their ability to learn basic learning skills,” says Emily Deleu, assistant teaching professor of business management communication at Carnegie Mellon University. “Is that good for them in the long term?” she asks. “This is still an open question.” To protect students, she suggests “we need government rules to give advice to schools.” And she adds, “The biggest risk of all with AI is doing nothing. The world has changed and is changing. We should change how we teach and what we teach to welcome AI.” 32．What does the 2024 study show about AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They can help develop students’ interest in maths. B．They can increase competition among students. C．They can help students improve their grades. D．They can shorten students’ study time. 33．What does Joseph South think of AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They will reduce the need for teachers in online learning. B．They can make personalised tutoring affordable for most people. C．They will pass some biases on to learners. D．They may present fiction as fact. 34．What do experts want educational institutions to do? A．Bring in more professional teachers. B．Develop more AI-powered tutoring tools. C．Help students develop their own opinions. D．Try to protect students’ private information. 35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Will AI Change Education for the Better? B．Can AI Help Students Learn Important Skills? C．Are AI Tools Expensive for Learners? D．What Can AI Tools Help Teachers Do? 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。 It has been shown that watching English movie trailers(预告片) can improve your English vocabulary and thinking skills. 36 The first step is to find them. Go to YouTube and do a search for something like “official trailer”. Several film trailers will appear. 37 Animated films can be an especially good choice for English practice no matter how old you are. These films are usually humorous and relatable. To find animated films, try doing a search for something like “animated official trailer”. Make sure the video you choose offers closed captions(字幕), which you will use later. You can find the closed caption mark at the bottom of the video. It may be listed as “CC” or something else. Keep in mind that trailers more than five or seven years old may not offer closed captions on YouTube. 38 Next, watch the video at a normal speed without closed captions. Try to understand what the story is about overall. Then watch it again to seek more details. 39 It will give you an idea of whether the dialogue is too fast or difficult for your skill level. 40 Find the “CC” setting at the bottom of the video and click the captions. This can help you in several ways. You can confirm whether you understand the dialogue in your first viewing, make clearer any dialogue you do not understand, and connect the sound of words with their spellings. You can also write down a few of the new words in a notebook or on your mobile phone. A．So choose newer videos. B．You can choose some that look interesting. C．They may sound a little strange at a slower speed. D．With this method, you are testing your English skills. E．Then watch the video again, this time with closed captions. F．Besides, try using your notebook as you learn English in your everyday life. G．Now let's talk about steps you can take to get the most out of watching them. 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。 It was Monday morning.

When the school announced an English writing competition, David was eager to participate. He worked hard on his entry, believing it was his chance to prove himself. However, when the results were announced, David’s name wasn’t there. He felt a deep sense of disappointment and frustration, as if all his hard work had been in vain. After the competition, David felt too embarrassed to talk about his failure. He spent days in his room, avoiding everyone. His former imagination seemed to have dried up, and he couldn’t find the motivation to write anymore. It felt like a part of him had been destroyed. One afternoon, as David sat in his room, his English teacher, Mr. Carter, came to visit. Mr. Carter was a kind and encouraging teacher who had always believed in David s potential. He had noticed David’s absence in class and decided to check in on him. “Hey, David,” Mr. Carter said gently. “I heard about the competition. I’m really sorry you didn’t win, but I know how much effort you put into it. You should be proud of yourself for trying.” David looked down, feeling defeated. “I just don’t get it, Mr. Carter,” he said quietly. “I worked so hard, but it wasn’t enough. I feel like I’m never going to be good enough.” Mr. Carter sat down next to David and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder., He said, “David, writing is not just about winning competitions. It’s about expressing yourself and sharing your ideas. Sometimes, even the best writers don’t win. But that doesn’t mean they’re not good. It just means they need to keep trying and learning.” With Mr. Carter’s encouragement, David began to analyze his writing. They discussed the strengths and weaknesses of his entry, and Mr. Carter offered valuable suggestions. David started to feel more confident and motivated. He realized that failure was just a part of the learning process. 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。 Over the next few weeks, David threw himself back into his writing. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next school year brought another writing competition. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共8页） 试题 第4页（共8页） 试题 第5页（共8页） 试题 第6页（共8页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高一英语必修第三册单元测试 Unit 8·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分1.5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。每段对话读两遍。 1．Why does the man ask for help?

Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning — it will warm up when we get to the park. Why drink so much sparkling water? And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga? At first I wondered how I’d raised an awkward son. Then I remembered how often I threw the golden rule of parenting at Nathaniel and his siblings when they were young. “Someday, you’ll have a home of your own and can live however you want,” I’d say. “Until then, you’ll have to do as we ask.” And so I smilingly did as Nathaniel said, but with a touch of playfulness, like hiding a separate roll of paper towels into the storeroom, or moving one of his favorite photographs a few inches. There were perks to playing beta to Nathaniel’s alpha. He cleaned dishes after dinner. He also set our daily outings. And he willingly drove everywhere, sparing me the pain of Los Angeles traffic. We were walking along El Matador Beach our last afternoon and hit an extended patch of rocks — clearly the end of the line. Nathaniel guided me across one large stone to the next, patiently telling me where to place my feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was frightened, but after a couple hundred yards we made it to a fresh sandy stretch. “You did it! I’m really proud,” he said. It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood. 24．What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A．Nathaniel’s various rules. B．The father’s unhealthy lifestyles. C．Parent-child arguments. D．The father’s forgetfulness. 25．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 imply? A．Nathaniel could make detailed plans. B．Listening to Nathaniel brought benefits. C．Tricking Nathaniel made the author enjoyable. D．Nathaniel had to address many problems. 26．According to the last paragraph, what is an important quality to be a father? A．Selfless. B．Peaceful. C．Adventurous. D．Encouraging. 27．What does the author’s experience show? A．Do as the Romans do. B．Practice makes perfect. C．East or west, home is the best. D．The student becomes the teacher. C For anyone connected with a school, the last couple of weeks should have been a pile-up of plays, choir performances, and talent shows. But a report found, alarmingly, that 53% of primaries and 63% of secondaries that normally hold a festive concert at the end of the first term did not do so. It is deeply troubling that music is no longer being taught to 11-to-14-year-olds in more than half of state secondaries. And some children get as little as one day of music lesson a year. If this situation is allowed to continue, music-making will become the preserve of those who can afford it. And the intense competition for better academic performance has only sped up this trend. A survey published this month of more than 1, 300 music teachers found that a third of British primary schools are not singing, while a quarter have ceased instrumental lessons. Almost three-quarters of primary and two-thirds of secondary schools have cancelled extracurricular music. Though a sharp decline of music provision is due to various social factors, Ofsted appeared to put this down to schools themselves, rather than pointing the finger at the government’s silence to educators’ appeal. This is very sad and shortsighted. On the most basic level, music aids academic achievement. Research suggests that music-making improves speech and literacy. But academic progress is too narrow a standard of success. In her book, Joan Koenig argues that music is fundamental to a well-functioning society. Besides that, music-making nurtures sympathy and belonging. “People stand a much better chance of finding meaning and happiness in their lives if they feel that they belong,” as Koenig puts it. “Studies show that group musical practice can create and enhance this feeling. It is when people don’t have a sense of belonging that things go wrong.” In this time of uncertainty and fear, ensuring that all children can access music-making is a cause deserving meaningful support and attention from ministers. 28．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．Educators are appealing for investment. B．Schools merely value academic achievements. C．Music lessons are nearly absent from classrooms. D．Parents cannot afford students’ music lessons. 29．According to Ofsted, who is to blame for the affected music provision? A．The schools. B．The educators. C．The government. D．The researchers. 30．What does the underlined word “nurtures” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Promotes. B．Deserves. C．Symbolizes. D．Worsens. 31．What does the author mainly convey in the last paragraph? A．Music education is optional. B．Music education calls for backup. C．Music-making is tough. D．Music-making makes sense. D As new technologies, including AI, are becoming popular, they promise to change learning for the better. Already, there are AI-based tutoring (辅导) tools that can help learners. One 2024 study, led by the University of Oxford, found that school students in Ghana who used an AI-powered maths tutor through WhatsApp for half an hour, twice a week, over eight months had “higher” maths progress scores than those in a control group. “Until now, professional, personalised tutoring has been too expensive for people,” points out Joseph South, chief innovation officer at the International Society for Technology in Education. “AI-powered tutors can offer this experience for online learners at a low price.” However, there are still possible problems to solve. AI can present untrue things as fact, which could mean students might “learn” incorrect information. Similarly, AI can develop biases (偏见) based on the data (数据) used to train it, and possibly pass them on to learners. In addition, experts warn that any educational institution (机构) needs to have strict rules on what student personal information can be put into AI tools, to reduce privacy risks. But, to some, the biggest risk is to the learning process. “As students increasingly depend on AI tools, they may use them as quick answers, which will hurt their ability to learn basic learning skills,” says Emily Deleu, assistant teaching professor of business management communication at Carnegie Mellon University. “Is that good for them in the long term?” she asks. “This is still an open question.” To protect students, she suggests “we need government rules to give advice to schools.” And she adds, “The biggest risk of all with AI is doing nothing. The world has changed and is changing. We should change how we teach and what we teach to welcome AI.” 32．What does the 2024 study show about AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They can help develop students’ interest in maths. B．They can increase competition among students. C．They can help students improve their grades. D．They can shorten students’ study time. 33．What does Joseph South think of AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They will reduce the need for teachers in online learning. B．They can make personalised tutoring affordable for most people. C．They will pass some biases on to learners. D．They may present fiction as fact. 34．What do experts want educational institutions to do? A．Bring in more professional teachers. B．Develop more AI-powered tutoring tools. C．Help students develop their own opinions. D．Try to protect students’ private information. 35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Will AI Change Education for the Better? B．Can AI Help Students Learn Important Skills? C．Are AI Tools Expensive for Learners? D．What Can AI Tools Help Teachers Do? 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。 It has been shown that watching English movie trailers(预告片) can improve your English vocabulary and thinking skills. 36 The first step is to find them. Go to YouTube and do a search for something like “official trailer”. Several film trailers will appear. 37 Animated films can be an especially good choice for English practice no matter how old you are. These films are usually humorous and relatable. To find animated films, try doing a search for something like “animated official trailer”. Make sure the video you choose offers closed captions(字幕), which you will use later. You can find the closed caption mark at the bottom of the video. It may be listed as “CC” or something else. Keep in mind that trailers more than five or seven years old may not offer closed captions on YouTube. 38 Next, watch the video at a normal speed without closed captions. Try to understand what the story is about overall. Then watch it again to seek more details. 39 It will give you an idea of whether the dialogue is too fast or difficult for your skill level. 40 Find the “CC” setting at the bottom of the video and click the captions. This can help you in several ways. You can confirm whether you understand the dialogue in your first viewing, make clearer any dialogue you do not understand, and connect the sound of words with their spellings. You can also write down a few of the new words in a notebook or on your mobile phone. A．So choose newer videos. B．You can choose some that look interesting. C．They may sound a little strange at a slower speed. D．With this method, you are testing your English skills. E．Then watch the video again, this time with closed captions. F．Besides, try using your notebook as you learn English in your everyday life. G．Now let's talk about steps you can take to get the most out of watching them. 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。 It was Monday morning.

When the school announced an English writing competition, David was eager to participate. He worked hard on his entry, believing it was his chance to prove himself. However, when the results were announced, David’s name wasn’t there. He felt a deep sense of disappointment and frustration, as if all his hard work had been in vain. After the competition, David felt too embarrassed to talk about his failure. He spent days in his room, avoiding everyone. His former imagination seemed to have dried up, and he couldn’t find the motivation to write anymore. It felt like a part of him had been destroyed. One afternoon, as David sat in his room, his English teacher, Mr. Carter, came to visit. Mr. Carter was a kind and encouraging teacher who had always believed in David s potential. He had noticed David’s absence in class and decided to check in on him. “Hey, David,” Mr. Carter said gently. “I heard about the competition. I’m really sorry you didn’t win, but I know how much effort you put into it. You should be proud of yourself for trying.” David looked down, feeling defeated. “I just don’t get it, Mr. Carter,” he said quietly. “I worked so hard, but it wasn’t enough. I feel like I’m never going to be good enough.” Mr. Carter sat down next to David and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder., He said, “David, writing is not just about winning competitions. It’s about expressing yourself and sharing your ideas. Sometimes, even the best writers don’t win. But that doesn’t mean they’re not good. It just means they need to keep trying and learning.” With Mr. Carter’s encouragement, David began to analyze his writing. They discussed the strengths and weaknesses of his entry, and Mr. Carter offered valuable suggestions. David started to feel more confident and motivated. He realized that failure was just a part of the learning process. 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。 Over the next few weeks, David threw himself back into his writing. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next school year brought another writing competition. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 4 / 12 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高一英语必修第三册单元测试 Unit 8·提升卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分 30 分） 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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。每段对话读两遍。 1．Why does the man ask for help?

C．Raising a large amount of money. 【答案】18．A 19．A 20．B 【原文】M: If you’d told me a year ago that I’d be jumping out of a plane, I’d have laughed. I hated heights. It’s not the kind of thing I enjoy doing with friends! But something changed after my grandad passed away from Alzheimer’s. I wanted to do something meaningful that could help others affected by the same disease. So, I signed up for a charity skydive. I’d never even done a bake sale before! We watched a safety video and we jumped from 4,000 meters. The free fall lasted for one minute, and we dropped at 200 kilometers per hour. I worked out that meant I fell roughly 3,300 meters before the parachute (降落伞) opened. It was peaceful. You’d expect panic, but instead I felt calm. Everything looked so small, and yet I felt part of something huge, The great part? We raised £8,452 — the highest amount anyone in our area has ever raised for Alzheimer’s. But even better than the total was hearing people talk about their experience with this illness. So many had been through the same as my grandad. I still don’t love heights, so I’ve not overcome that fear. But I’ve learned that sometimes, doing something scary opens doors — and hearts. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A The following are some of the strangest jobs in the world. Let’s have a look at them together. Part-Time Tree Climber If you’re not afraid of climbing up trees and cutting the branches then this job might be perfect for you. You actually can work according to your own schedule. The part-time tree climber job could end up turning into a real full-time job. This might also be a great way to stay in good shape and work on those muscles. Fake (假的) Office Worker This is not an April Fool’s Day joke. One company fired several of their employees. However, in order to look good when certain clients came into the office they hired fake office workers. All they had to do was to just look busy at their desks and act like they knew exactly what they were doing. The amazing thing about this job is that they were paid US 15 an hour for being fake office workers! Mermaid (美人鱼) for a Birthday Party If you love mermaids or do not mind dressing up as one for a birthday party then this job might be good for you. Some women are looking for a mermaid at a July party and they actually pay US $ 150 for at least three hours. If it is needed, the costume will be provided for this job. Back Scratcher (挠背器/者) If you don’t want to buy a cheap back scratcher, you might want to hire someone to do it for you. Having a job as a back scratcher might sound easy enough, but actually it is not. You never know when you might accidentally hit that ache in a person’s back and cause him pain. 21．According to the text, the job of a part-time tree climber ________. A．is quite dangerous B．is well-paid C．can only be done part-time D．can help keep you healthy 22．What should fake office workers do? A．Communicate with clients all day B．Train other employees. C．Pretend to be working. D．Help the boss deal with problems. 23．Where can we most probably find this text? A．On a website about jobs. B．In a book about good companies. C．In an article on how to start a business. D．In a health magazine. 【答案】21．D 22．C 23．A 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个奇怪的工作以及工作内容的不同之处。 21．细节理解题。根据Part-Time Tree Climber部分中“This might also be a great way to stay in good shape and work on those muscles.(这也是保持好身材和锻炼肌肉的好方法)”可知，兼职爬树的工作可以帮助你保持健康。故选D。 22．细节理解题。根据Fake (假的) Office Worker部分中“All they had to do was to just look busy at their desks and act like they knew exactly what they were doing.(他们所要做的就是在办公桌前看起来很忙，表现得好像他们很清楚自己在做什么)”可知，假上班族假装在工作。故选C。 23．推理判断题。根据第一段“The following are some of the strangest jobs in the world. Let’s have a look at them together.(以下是世界上最奇怪的工作。让我们一起来看看)”以及文章介绍了几个不可思议的工作，所以可能出自一个关于工作的网站。故选A。 B There comes a time for every family when the tables turn and the parent has to answer to the child. Mine came recently when my wife and I stayed with our elder son in Los Angeles. A whole week under his roof! “Dad, don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel told me seriously on our first night. I grabbed extra paper towels to wipe the kitchen counter and was instructed to use the dishcloth. Not to leave my ugly walking shoes sitting out. Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning — it will warm up when we get to the park. Why drink so much sparkling water? And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga? At first I wondered how I’d raised an awkward son. Then I remembered how often I threw the golden rule of parenting at Nathaniel and his siblings when they were young. “Someday, you’ll have a home of your own and can live however you want,” I’d say. “Until then, you’ll have to do as we ask.” And so I smilingly did as Nathaniel said, but with a touch of playfulness, like hiding a separate roll of paper towels into the storeroom, or moving one of his favorite photographs a few inches. There were perks to playing beta to Nathaniel’s alpha. He cleaned dishes after dinner. He also set our daily outings. And he willingly drove everywhere, sparing me the pain of Los Angeles traffic. We were walking along El Matador Beach our last afternoon and hit an extended patch of rocks — clearly the end of the line. Nathaniel guided me across one large stone to the next, patiently telling me where to place my feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was frightened, but after a couple hundred yards we made it to a fresh sandy stretch. “You did it! I’m really proud,” he said. It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood. 24．What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A．Nathaniel’s various rules. B．The father’s unhealthy lifestyles. C．Parent-child arguments. D．The father’s forgetfulness. 25．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 imply? A．Nathaniel could make detailed plans. B．Listening to Nathaniel brought benefits. C．Tricking Nathaniel made the author enjoyable. D．Nathaniel had to address many problems. 26．According to the last paragraph, what is an important quality to be a father? A．Selfless. B．Peaceful. C．Adventurous. D．Encouraging. 27．What does the author’s experience show? A．Do as the Romans do. B．Practice makes perfect. C．East or west, home is the best. D．The student becomes the teacher. 【答案】24．A 25．B 26．D 27．D 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者夫妇前往儿子家中小住的温馨经历：原本身为管教者的父亲，反而要遵守儿子定下的诸多生活规矩，作者在调侃之余也接受了这种身份对调，儿子耐心引导作者、并在成功抵达后鼓励作者，让作者真切感悟到孩子已经长大，具备了为人父的担当，完成了亲子间的身份轮转。 24．主旨大意题。根据第二段““Dad, don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel told me seriously on our first night. I grabbed extra paper towels to wipe the kitchen counter and was instructed to use the dishcloth. Not to leave my ugly walking shoes sitting out. Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning — it will warm up when we get to the park. Why drink so much sparkling water? And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga?(“爸爸，刷牙的时候别让水一直流着，” Nathaniel在我们第一天晚上严肃地对我说。我拿出了额外的纸巾来擦拭厨房台面，并被要求使用抹布。别把我的难看的步行鞋放在外面晾着。早上遛狗时别戴脖套——等我们到公园天气就会暖和起来了。为什么要喝那么多气泡水？我们开车去托潘加之前，你一定要先洗个澡吗？)”可知，本段是Nathaniel对父亲在自己家中生活提出的各类要求和规定。故选A。 25．词句猜测题。根据第四段中“He cleaned dishes after dinner. He also set our daily outings. And he willingly drove everywhere, sparing me the pain of Los Angeles traffic.(比如，他会在晚餐后帮忙洗碗；还会安排我们的日常外出活动；而且他还会主动开车接送我们，免得我在这洛杉矶的交通中受苦)”可知，划线句字面意思是“当Nathaniel当家时，我们做服从者有不少好处”，后文紧接着列举了儿子洗碗、安排行程、开车帮作者避开堵车等实际好处，因此这句话暗示听Nathaniel安排能带来好处。故选B。 26．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Nathaniel guided me across one large stone to the next, patiently telling me where to place my feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was frightened, but after a couple hundred yards we made it to a fresh sandy stretch. “You did it! I’m really proud,” he said. It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood. (Nathaniel引导我跨过一块大石头，走向另一块。他耐心地告诉我双脚和双手应放置的位置，同时提醒我注意海浪的靠近。我感到害怕，但走了几百码后，我们终于来到了一片新的沙滩上。“你做到了！我真的很为你感到骄傲。”他说。就在那时，我确切地知道这个儿子也成长为父亲了)”可知，Nathaniel引导父亲走过危险的岩石路段后，对父亲说“你做到了！我真为你骄傲”，这是典型的鼓励行为，作者也由此确认儿子已经具备了为人父的特质。由此推知，作为父亲的重要品质是懂得鼓励。故选D。 27．推理判断题。根据文章内容，结合第一段中“There comes a time for every family when the tables turn and the parent has to answer to the child.(每个家庭都会有这样的时刻：父母的地位会发生转变，必须向孩子负责)”可知，文章核心是亲子角色互换：原本管教孩子的父母，变成要听从孩子安排的一方；原本被父母教导的孩子，长成了当家主事、引导父母的人，对应“原本的学生变成了老师”。故选D。 C For anyone connected with a school, the last couple of weeks should have been a pile-up of plays, choir performances, and talent shows. But a report found, alarmingly, that 53% of primaries and 63% of secondaries that normally hold a festive concert at the end of the first term did not do so. It is deeply troubling that music is no longer being taught to 11-to-14-year-olds in more than half of state secondaries. And some children get as little as one day of music lesson a year. If this situation is allowed to continue, music-making will become the preserve of those who can afford it. And the intense competition for better academic performance has only sped up this trend. A survey published this month of more than 1, 300 music teachers found that a third of British primary schools are not singing, while a quarter have ceased instrumental lessons. Almost three-quarters of primary and two-thirds of secondary schools have cancelled extracurricular music. Though a sharp decline of music provision is due to various social factors, Ofsted appeared to put this down to schools themselves, rather than pointing the finger at the government’s silence to educators’ appeal. This is very sad and shortsighted. On the most basic level, music aids academic achievement. Research suggests that music-making improves speech and literacy. But academic progress is too narrow a standard of success. In her book, Joan Koenig argues that music is fundamental to a well-functioning society. Besides that, music-making nurtures sympathy and belonging. “People stand a much better chance of finding meaning and happiness in their lives if they feel that they belong,” as Koenig puts it. “Studies show that group musical practice can create and enhance this feeling. It is when people don’t have a sense of belonging that things go wrong.” In this time of uncertainty and fear, ensuring that all children can access music-making is a cause deserving meaningful support and attention from ministers. 28．What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A．Educators are appealing for investment. B．Schools merely value academic achievements. C．Music lessons are nearly absent from classrooms. D．Parents cannot afford students’ music lessons. 29．According to Ofsted, who is to blame for the affected music provision? A．The schools. B．The educators. C．The government. D．The researchers. 30．What does the underlined word “nurtures” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Promotes. B．Deserves. C．Symbolizes. D．Worsens. 31．What does the author mainly convey in the last paragraph? A．Music education is optional. B．Music education calls for backup. C．Music-making is tough. D．Music-making makes sense. 【答案】28．C 29．A 30．A 31．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了如今学校音乐课逐渐消失的现象，说明了音乐的好处。 28．主旨大意题。根据第二段“It is deeply troubling that music is no longer being taught to 11-to-14-year-olds in more than half of state secondaries. And some children get as little as one day of music lesson a year. If this situation is allowed to continue, music-making will become the preserve of those who can afford it.

A survey published this month of more than 1, 300 music teachers found that a third of British primary schools are not singing, while a quarter have ceased instrumental lessons. Almost three-quarters of primary and two-thirds of secondary schools have cancelled extracurricular music. Though a sharp decline of music provision is due to various social factors, Ofsted appeared to put this down to schools themselves, rather than pointing the finger at the government’s silence to educators’ appeal.(令人深感不安的是，超过一半的公立中学不再教授11到14岁的学生音乐。有些孩子一年只上一天音乐课。如果这种情况继续下去，音乐创作将成为那些负担得起的人的专利。为了更好的学习成绩而进行的激烈竞争只会加速这一趋势。本月公布的一项对1300多名音乐教师的调查发现，英国三分之一的小学不唱歌，四分之一的小学停止了乐器课。近四分之三的小学和三分之二的中学已经取消了课外音乐活动。尽管音乐教学数量的急剧下降是由各种社会因素造成的，但Ofsted似乎把这归咎于学校本身，而不是指责政府对教育工作者的呼吁无动于衷)”可知，第二段主要讲的是教室里几乎没有音乐课。故选C。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Though a sharp decline of music provision is due to various social factors, Ofsted appeared to put this down to schools themselves, rather than pointing the finger at the government’s silence to educators’ appeal. (尽管音乐教学数量的急剧下降是由各种社会因素造成的，但Ofsted似乎把这归咎于学校本身，而不是指责政府对教育工作者的呼吁无动于衷)”可知，学校应该为受影响的音乐供应负责。故选A。 30．词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“sympathy and belonging. “People stand a much better chance of finding meaning and happiness in their lives if they feel that they belong,” as Koenig puts it.”可知，正如柯尼格所说，如果人们觉得自己有归属感，他们就更有可能找到生活的意义和幸福。可见音乐创作还能培养同情心和归属感。故画线词意思是“培养”。A. Promotes.培养；B. Deserves.值得；C. Symbolizes.象征；D. Worsens.恶化。故选A。 31．主旨大意题。根据最后一段“In this time of uncertainty and fear, ensuring that all children can access music-making is a cause deserving meaningful support and attention from ministers.(在这个充满不确定性和恐惧的时代，确保所有儿童都能接触到音乐创作是一项值得牧师们给予有意义的支持和关注的事业)”可知，作者在最后一段主要表达了音乐教育需要支援。故选B。 D As new technologies, including AI, are becoming popular, they promise to change learning for the better. Already, there are AI-based tutoring (辅导) tools that can help learners. One 2024 study, led by the University of Oxford, found that school students in Ghana who used an AI-powered maths tutor through WhatsApp for half an hour, twice a week, over eight months had “higher” maths progress scores than those in a control group. “Until now, professional, personalised tutoring has been too expensive for people,” points out Joseph South, chief innovation officer at the International Society for Technology in Education. “AI-powered tutors can offer this experience for online learners at a low price.” However, there are still possible problems to solve. AI can present untrue things as fact, which could mean students might “learn” incorrect information. Similarly, AI can develop biases (偏见) based on the data (数据) used to train it, and possibly pass them on to learners. In addition, experts warn that any educational institution (机构) needs to have strict rules on what student personal information can be put into AI tools, to reduce privacy risks. But, to some, the biggest risk is to the learning process. “As students increasingly depend on AI tools, they may use them as quick answers, which will hurt their ability to learn basic learning skills,” says Emily Deleu, assistant teaching professor of business management communication at Carnegie Mellon University. “Is that good for them in the long term?” she asks. “This is still an open question.” To protect students, she suggests “we need government rules to give advice to schools.” And she adds, “The biggest risk of all with AI is doing nothing. The world has changed and is changing. We should change how we teach and what we teach to welcome AI.” 32．What does the 2024 study show about AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They can help develop students’ interest in maths. B．They can increase competition among students. C．They can help students improve their grades. D．They can shorten students’ study time. 33．What does Joseph South think of AI-powered tutoring tools? A．They will reduce the need for teachers in online learning. B．They can make personalised tutoring affordable for most people. C．They will pass some biases on to learners. D．They may present fiction as fact. 34．What do experts want educational institutions to do? A．Bring in more professional teachers. B．Develop more AI-powered tutoring tools. C．Help students develop their own opinions. D．Try to protect students’ private information. 35．Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A．Will AI Change Education for the Better? B．Can AI Help Students Learn Important Skills? C．Are AI Tools Expensive for Learners? D．What Can AI Tools Help Teachers Do? 【答案】32．C 33．B 34．D 35．A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出人工智能辅导工具能提高学生成绩并降低个性化辅导成本，但也需解决虚假信息、偏见、隐私及学习能力退化等问题，未来需政策引导以适应人工智能时代。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段中“One 2024 study, led by the University of Oxford, found that school students in Ghana who used an AI-powered maths tutor through WhatsApp for half an hour, twice a week, over eight months had “higher” maths progress scores than those in a control group. (牛津大学在2024年领导的一项研究发现，在八个月的时间里，通过WhatsApp使用人工智能数学导师的加纳学生，每周两次，每次半小时，其数学进步分数比对照组的学生“更高”。)”可知，2024年的研究显示了人工智能辅导工具可以帮助学生提高成绩。故选C项。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段中Joseph South所说的话“Until now, professional, personalised tutoring has been too expensive for people (到目前为止，专业的、个性化的辅导对人们来说过于昂贵)”和“AI-powered tutors can offer this experience for online learners at a low price. (人工智能导师可以以较低的价格为在线学习者提供这种体验。)”可知，Joseph South认为人工智能辅导工具可以让大多数人负担得起个性化辅导。故选B项。 34．细节理解题。根据第四段中“In addition, experts warn that any educational institution (机构) needs to have strict rules on what student personal information can be put into AI tools, to reduce privacy risks. (此外，专家警告说，任何教育机构都需要严格规定哪些学生的个人信息可以输入人工智能工具，以降低隐私风险。)”可知，专家希望教育机构尽力保护学生的个人信息。故选D项。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“As new technologies, including AI, are becoming popular, they promise to change learning for the better. (随着包括人工智能在内的新技术越来越流行，它们有望使学习变得更好。)”可知，文章探讨了人工智能在教育中的潜力，如提升成绩、降低辅导成本，但也指出虚假信息、偏见、隐私风险及学习能力退化的问题。因此，A项“人工智能会让教育变得更好吗？”涵盖双向的讨论，最适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 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。 It has been shown that watching English movie trailers(预告片) can improve your English vocabulary and thinking skills. 36 The first step is to find them. Go to YouTube and do a search for something like “official trailer”. Several film trailers will appear. 37 Animated films can be an especially good choice for English practice no matter how old you are. These films are usually humorous and relatable. To find animated films, try doing a search for something like “animated official trailer”. Make sure the video you choose offers closed captions(字幕), which you will use later. You can find the closed caption mark at the bottom of the video. It may be listed as “CC” or something else. Keep in mind that trailers more than five or seven years old may not offer closed captions on YouTube. 38 Next, watch the video at a normal speed without closed captions. Try to understand what the story is about overall. Then watch it again to seek more details. 39 It will give you an idea of whether the dialogue is too fast or difficult for your skill level. 40 Find the “CC” setting at the bottom of the video and click the captions. This can help you in several ways. You can confirm whether you understand the dialogue in your first viewing, make clearer any dialogue you do not understand, and connect the sound of words with their spellings. You can also write down a few of the new words in a notebook or on your mobile phone. A．So choose newer videos. B．You can choose some that look interesting. C．They may sound a little strange at a slower speed. D．With this method, you are testing your English skills. E．Then watch the video again, this time with closed captions. F．Besides, try using your notebook as you learn English in your everyday life.

Then watch it again to seek more details.(试着理解整个故事的内容。然后再看一遍以了解更多细节。)”是描述方法，结合空后“It will give you an idea of whether the dialogue is too fast or difficult for your skill level.(它会让你了解对话对你的技能水平来说是太快还是太难)”可知，D项“用这种方法测试你的英语技能”与上下文关系紧密，符合语境。故选D项。 40．空处是段落主题句，下文“Find the ‘CC’ setting at the bottom of the video and click the captions. This can help you in several ways. (找到在视频的底部‘CC’设置，并点击字幕。这可以在几个方面帮助你。)”谈论的是点击字幕及好处，故E项“再看一遍视频，这次是带隐藏式字幕的”符合语境。故选E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。 It was Monday morning.

When the school announced an English writing competition, David was eager to participate. He worked hard on his entry, believing it was his chance to prove himself. However, when the results were announced, David’s name wasn’t there. He felt a deep sense of disappointment and frustration, as if all his hard work had been in vain. After the competition, David felt too embarrassed to talk about his failure. He spent days in his room, avoiding everyone. His former imagination seemed to have dried up, and he couldn’t find the motivation to write anymore. It felt like a part of him had been destroyed. One afternoon, as David sat in his room, his English teacher, Mr. Carter, came to visit. Mr. Carter was a kind and encouraging teacher who had always believed in David s potential. He had noticed David’s absence in class and decided to check in on him. “Hey, David,” Mr. Carter said gently. “I heard about the competition. I’m really sorry you didn’t win, but I know how much effort you put into it. You should be proud of yourself for trying.” David looked down, feeling defeated. “I just don’t get it, Mr. Carter,” he said quietly. “I worked so hard, but it wasn’t enough. I feel like I’m never going to be good enough.” Mr. Carter sat down next to David and placed a reassuring hand on his shoulder., He said, “David, writing is not just about winning competitions. It’s about expressing yourself and sharing your ideas. Sometimes, even the best writers don’t win. But that doesn’t mean they’re not good. It just means they need to keep trying and learning.” With Mr. Carter’s encouragement, David began to analyze his writing. They discussed the strengths and weaknesses of his entry, and Mr. Carter offered valuable suggestions. David started to feel more confident and motivated. He realized that failure was just a part of the learning process. 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。 Over the next few weeks, David threw himself back into his writing. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next school year brought another writing competition. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Over the next few weeks, David threw himself back into his writing. He practiced every day, incorporating Mr. Carter’s advice. He wrote essays, short stories, and even poetry, constantly pushing himself to improve. Slowly but surely, his confidence grew, and he began to enjoy writing again. He found that the more he wrote, the more ideas flowed through his mind. Each word he put on paper felt like a small victory, and he started to see his writing in a new light. He realized that the joy of writing wasn’t just in winning competitions, but in the process of creation itself. The next school year brought another writing competition. This time, David was determined to give it his best shot. He submitted an essay that he had worked on for weeks, feeling more prepared and hopeful than ever before. When the results were announced, David’s heart raced with anticipation. To his delight, his name was called as one of the winners. He couldn’t believe it — he had done it! All the hard work and perseverance had paid off. David knew that this victory was not just his own; it was evidence for the power of believing in oneself and never giving up. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述大卫热爱写作，参加英语写作比赛却失利，他失望沮丧，英语老师卡特先生安慰并鼓励他，他开始分析自己的写作。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的几周里，大卫重新投入到写作中。”可知，第一段可描述大卫按照卡特先生的建议坚持练习写作，逐渐找回信心，重新享受写作的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“新的学年带来了另一场写作比赛。”可知，第二段可描述大卫积极参赛，最终获得胜利，明白了坚持和相信自己的力量。 2. 续写线索：投入写作练习——信心增长——参加新比赛——获得胜利——明白坚持的力量 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①提高：improve/advance ②开始：begin/start ③提交：submit/hand in 情绪类 ①愉快：joy/delight/happiness ②下定决心的：determined/resolved 【点睛】[高分句型1] He practiced every day, incorporating Mr. Carter’s advice.(运用了现在分词作伴随状语) [高分句型2] When the results were announced, David’s heart raced with anticipation.
