B The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, “I always do what I can’t do so that I can learn how to do it.” It strikes a chord with me because that’s exactly what I’ve done these years. One of my earliest memories of doing before learning is of baking scones (烤饼) when I was about 10 years old. I wanted to bake them to surprise my mother when she returned home. Before that I’d observed how my mother baked them many times. As I started to try, I didn’t know I shouldn’t handle the dough with my hands too much once I’d added the baking powder. However, I knew exactly how to roll out the dough and use a cookie cutter to cut the scones, because my mom had already taught me. By the time my mom arrived home, the smell of freshly baked scones welcomed her into the kitchen. They were baked to golden brown perfection-flat, as a result of over handling the dough, but they tasted OK. My mom sweetly praised me for my attempt, rather than scolding me for the state of the kitchen, which was like a tornado had just blown! Have my attempts always been successful? I wish! Some of my kitchen disasters were of such proportions that even the dogs wanted nothing to do with them. My gardening failures didn’t live to see another season. But my habit of doing before learning is still helpful. Whatever computer program or application I have to learn, I do so by simply starting to use it. I do, learn, and improve. So if you ask me whether I regret that I tend to do first and learn later, I’d say I don’t, because what I have discovered from those is the wisdom to know when it’s OK to do and then learn, and when it’s probably better to learn and then do! 24. What can we learn about the author’s first experience of baking scones? A. She practiced hard before actually trying. B. She turned to her mom when necessary. C. She wanted to perform better than her mom. D. She managed to do it despite a little imperfection. 25. How did Mom respond to the author’s attempt? A. She made improvements to the scones. B. She expressed her appreciation for the job. C. She shared her first experience of baking. D. She was surprised by the mess in the kitchen. 26. What does the author think of her practices of “doing before learning”? A. Most of them have ended up in failure. B. They are just a barely usable method. C. They contribute a lot to her self-improvement. D. They only apply to the learning of specific skills. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To stress the importance of keeping learning. B. To show the benefits of doing before learning. C. To encourage people to do something they can’t do. D. To call on readers to change their way of learning. C Not long ago, you had to physically hand over cash to buy something. You witnessed it exit your wallet. You sensed it. But with payment services Klarna or Clearpay, you can now pay for a new phone in three installments (分期付款) and barely notice the difference. This isn’t just a shopping habit; it’s a reflection of how we relate to money today. We are becoming increasingly free of the emotional burden of spending. Additionally, our mental health is being profoundly affected by this quiet shift. The popularity of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) plans has soared. They promise freedom and flexibility, but the ease of use can trick our minds. When payment is divided into smaller payments, we are wired to feel less emotionally tired. Although the £15 payments seem insignificant, they quickly add up. Psychologists found that when the act of paying is separated from the act of purchasing, we experience less “pain of paying”, which makes us more likely to overspend. In societies where digital credit is easily accessible but financial education is limited, this behaviour can fall into lasting debt. Stress over money doesn’t stay in the bank. It follows us into our homes and even our sleep. Researches have shown that personal debt is strongly associated with depression and anxiety. That’s why we need to talk about money more often — not just how to make it but how we feel about it — in families, schools, workplaces, and therapy rooms. Therapists should be able to ask about financial stress with confidence. Financial education ought to be treated as essential in schools. Additionally, we should normalize debt-related conversations to relieve people’s feelings of shame. Financial stress can make you feel helpless. But by addressing the emotional side of money and building healthier habits, we can move from crisis to confidence. We live in a world where money is invisible. But the emotional burden it takes is very real. If we start noticing that cost, we might finally treat money not only as a resource, but as something deeply psychological. 28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Klarna and Clearpay help people save money. B. Digital payments are now relatively preferred. C. Invisible payments have improved mental health. D. Installments ease the emotional spending burden. 29. What may BNPL result in? A. Improved financial knowledge. B. Easy access to digital credit. C. Overspending and long-term debt. D. Decrease of small-amount expenses. 30. How can we build healthier financial habits? A. Value financial education. B. Hide feelings of shame. C. Mask people’s financial stress. D. Highlight debt-related problems. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Cash Shopping: The Healthy Way of Consumption B. Money’s Emotional Cost: Beyond Invisible Payments C. BNPL: A New Approach to Boost Consumer Spending D. Financial Education: The Core to Cutting Expenses D A corn plant knows how to find water in soil with the very tips of its roots, but some varieties, including many used for developing high-output corn in the U.S., appear to have lost part of that ability, according to a Stanford-led study. With climate change increasing droughts, the findings hold potential for developing more drought-resistant varieties of corn. The study, published in the journal Science, uncovers genetic mechanisms (遗传机制) behind “hydropatterning”, or how plant roots branch toward water and avoid dry spaces in soil. In particular, the researchers discovered that ethylene, a plant hormone (激素) known to help bananas ripen, also influences how roots grow to seek water. For this study, the researchers developed a new, simplified way to study water sensitivity in roots. They found corn varieties adapted to hot and wet regions like Mexico were very good at making new root branches toward water and avoiding dry areas. In contrast, the varieties adapted to moderate regions of North America frequently grew roots randomly without distinguishing between dry and wet areas in the soil. “Interestingly, the plants that are better at sensing where the water is are also making deeper root systems,” said lead author Johannes Scharwies. “One idea is that if the plant doesn’t waste time growing root branches into places where it doesn’t find any water and nutrients, then it has more energy to grow deeper down where water is more likely.” Genetic analyses reveal two plant hormones, auxin and ethylene, play a role in how corn roots respond to water. While auxin was already known to help control this process, ethylene’s involvement was a new discovery. In experiments with thale cress — a model plant often used in research — the researchers found auxin signaling promotes root branch development toward water, while ethylene stops branching when the root is exposed to air. Further research is needed to better understand the interaction of these genetic pathways before corn varieties can be developed with more drought-resistant root systems, but the findings highlight the significance of studying these localized responses at root tips, researchers said. 32. What is the primary focus of the Stanford-led study? A. Drought-resistant corn varieties. B. Ethylene’s effect on fruit ripening. C. Genetic regulation of root branching. D. Impact of climate change on plant roots. 33. What can be inferred from Johannes Scharwies’ remarks? A. Plant hormones make a big difference to root growth. B. Nutrients guarantee better water-seeking root systems. C. Root branching conserves energy for higher production. D. Stronger hydropatterning was linked to greater root depth. 34. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. Model plants in research. B. Hormones’ role in root growth. C. Genetic analysis methods. D. Findings of previous research. 35. What does the last paragraph suggest future research do? A. Prioritize development of new corn varieties. B. Work out the mechanisms of genetic interactions. C. Concentrate merely on localized root responses. D. Expand practical applications of hydropatterning. 第二节 （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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody gets sad from time to time.

Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently (目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me, and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I saw the boy waving something. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 铁人中学2024级高二下学期开学考试 英语试题 试题说明：1、本试题满分150分，答题时间120分钟。 2、请将答案填写在答题卡上，考试结束后只交答题卡。 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。每段对话读两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What will the weather be like in the afternoon?

The value of learning from mistakes. B. The crucial role of hard work. C. The importance of setting goals. 19. What did the speaker do in his second year of high school? A. He invented a mini light bulb. B. He entered a speech contest. C. He joined a debate team. 20. What does the speaker suggest doing in the end? A. Being careful. B. Keeping trying. C. Getting prepared. 【答案】18. A 19. B 20. B 【解析】 【原文】M: Making mistakes is a natural part of learning. In fact, some of the best lessons in life come from trial and error. Take Thomas Edison, the inventor of the light bulb, as an example. He tried thousands of times before finding the right material that works. When asked about his failures, he said, “I have not failed. I’ve just found 10,000 ways that won’t work.” In my own life, I’ve learned a lot by trying and failing. In my first year of high school, I joined the debate team. I was nervous and forgot my lines during my first debate. It was embarrassing, but it showed me the importance of confidence. I also remember signing up for a school speech contest the next year. I wrote my speech draft the night before and didn’t have time to practice much. I didn’t win the contest, but I learned to prepare earlier. These mistakes helped me get better. Everyone can make mistakes, even the smartest and most successful people. What matters is what you do after the mistake. So keep trying, keep learning, and remember: every mistake is a step forward. 第一部分 阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A TF NUS LEARN Summer Program 2025 in Singapore Are you an aspiring young leader interested in a fully funded international experience?

One of my earliest memories of doing before learning is of baking scones (烤饼) when I was about 10 years old. I wanted to bake them to surprise my mother when she returned home. Before that I’d observed how my mother baked them many times. As I started to try, I didn’t know I shouldn’t handle the dough with my hands too much once I’d added the baking powder. However, I knew exactly how to roll out the dough and use a cookie cutter to cut the scones, because my mom had already taught me. By the time my mom arrived home, the smell of freshly baked scones welcomed her into the kitchen. They were baked to golden brown perfection-flat, as a result of over handling the dough, but they tasted OK. My mom sweetly praised me for my attempt, rather than scolding me for the state of the kitchen, which was like a tornado had just blown! Have my attempts always been successful? I wish! Some of my kitchen disasters were of such proportions that even the dogs wanted nothing to do with them. My gardening failures didn’t live to see another season. But my habit of doing before learning is still helpful. Whatever computer program or application I have to learn, I do so by simply starting to use it. I do, learn, and improve. So if you ask me whether I regret that I tend to do first and learn later, I’d say I don’t, because what I have discovered from those is the wisdom to know when it’s OK to do and then learn, and when it’s probably better to learn and then do! 24. What can we learn about the author’s first experience of baking scones? A. She practiced hard before actually trying. B. She turned to her mom when necessary. C. She wanted to perform better than her mom. D She managed to do it despite a little imperfection. 25. How did Mom respond to the author’s attempt? A. She made improvements to the scones. B. She expressed her appreciation for the job. C. She shared her first experience of baking. D. She was surprised by the mess in the kitchen. 26. What does the author think of her practices of “doing before learning”? A. Most of them have ended up in failure. B. They are just a barely usable method. C. They contribute a lot to her self-improvement. D. They only apply to the learning of specific skills. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To stress the importance of keeping learning. B. To show the benefits of doing before learning. C. To encourage people to do something they can’t do. D. To call on readers to change their way of learning. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者用自己年少时做烤饼的经历来说明“先做后学”的好处。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“By the time my mom arrived home, the smell of freshly baked scones welcomed her into the kitchen. They were baked to golden brown perfection — flat, as a result of over handling the dough, but they tasted OK.(当我妈妈到家时，新鲜出炉的烤饼的香味把她迎进了厨房。由于过度处理面团，他们被烤成金棕色的完美扁平，但味道还不错)”可知，尽管最后作者做的烤饼因为过度手揉而有点扁平，但是味道很好，尽管有一点不完美，但她的尝试成功了。故选D项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“My mom sweetly praised me for my attempt, rather than scolding me for the state of the kitchen (妈妈亲切地表扬了我的尝试，并没有因为厨房的状况而责骂我)”可知，妈妈对作者的尝试表示赞赏。故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But my habit of doing before learning is still helpful. Whatever computer program or application I have to learn, I do so by simply starting to use it. I do, learn, and improve. So if you ask me whether I regret that I tend to do first and learn later, I’d say I don’t, because what I have discovered from those is the wisdom to know when it’s OK to do and then learn, and when it’s probably better to learn and then do!(但我在学习前做的习惯仍然很有用。无论我需要学习什么计算机程序或应用程序，我都是通过简单地开始使用它来做到的。所以，如果你问我是否后悔我倾向于先做后学，我会说我不会，因为我从中发现了一种智慧，那就是知道什么时候可以做，什么时候可以学，什么时候最好学，然后做！)”可推知，作者认为这些在“学习”之前就做出的尝试为她的自我提升做出了很大的贡献。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“The famous Spanish painter Pablo Picasso once said, ‘I always do what I can’t do so that I can learn how to do it.’ It strikes a chord (引起共鸣) with me because that’s exactly what I’ve done these years.(西班牙著名画家巴勃罗·毕加索曾说过：‘我总是做我做不到的事，这样我才能学会做。’这句话引起了我的共鸣，因为这正是我这些年来所做的)”以及根据最后一段“But my habit of doing before learning is still helpful. Whatever computer program or application I have to learn, I do so by simply starting to use it. I do, learn, and improve. So if you ask me whether I regret that I tend to do first and learn later, I’d say I don’t, because what I have discovered from those is the wisdom to know when it’s OK to do and then learn, and when it’s probably better to learn and then do!(但我在学习前做的习惯仍然很有用。无论我需要学习什么计算机程序或应用程序，我都是通过简单地开始使用它来做到的。所以，如果你问我是否后悔我倾向于先做后学，我会说我不会，因为我从中发现了一种智慧，那就是知道什么时候可以做，什么时候可以学，什么时候最好学，然后做！)”可知，作者写本文的目的是要展示“先做后学”的好处。故选B项。 C Not long ago, you had to physically hand over cash to buy something. You witnessed it exit your wallet. You sensed it. But with payment services Klarna or Clearpay, you can now pay for a new phone in three installments (分期付款) and barely notice the difference. This isn’t just a shopping habit; it’s a reflection of how we relate to money today. We are becoming increasingly free of the emotional burden of spending. Additionally, our mental health is being profoundly affected by this quiet shift. The popularity of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) plans has soared. They promise freedom and flexibility, but the ease of use can trick our minds. When payment is divided into smaller payments, we are wired to feel less emotionally tired. Although the £15 payments seem insignificant, they quickly add up. Psychologists found that when the act of paying is separated from the act of purchasing, we experience less “pain of paying”, which makes us more likely to overspend. In societies where digital credit is easily accessible but financial education is limited, this behaviour can fall into lasting debt. Stress over money doesn’t stay in the bank. It follows us into our homes and even our sleep. Researches have shown that personal debt is strongly associated with depression and anxiety. That’s why we need to talk about money more often — not just how to make it, but how we feel about it — in families, schools, workplaces, and therapy rooms. Therapists should be able to ask about financial stress with confidence. Financial education ought to be treated as essential in schools. Additionally, we should normalize debt-related conversations to relieve people’s feelings of shame. Financial stress can make you feel helpless. But by addressing the emotional side of money and building healthier habits, we can move from crisis to confidence. We live in a world where money is invisible. But the emotional burden it takes is very real. If we start noticing that cost, we might finally treat money not only as a resource, but as something deeply psychological. 28. What phenomenon does the author point out in paragraph 1? A. Klarna and Clearpay help people save money. B. Digital payments are now relatively preferred. C. Invisible payments have improved mental health. D. Installments ease the emotional spending burden. 29. What may BNPL result in? A. Improved financial knowledge. B. Easy access to digital credit. C. Overspending and long-term debt. D. Decrease of small-amount expenses. 30. How can we build healthier financial habits? A. Value financial education. B. Hide feelings of shame. C. Mask people’s financial stress. D. Highlight debt-related problems. 31. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Cash Shopping: The Healthy Way of Consumption B. Money’s Emotional Cost: Beyond Invisible Payments C. BNPL: A New Approach to Boost Consumer Spending D. Financial Education: The Core to Cutting Expenses 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出分期付款减少消费痛苦，但可能引发超支和债务，强调金钱对心理健康的影响，并呼吁加强金融教育和债务相关讨论，以建立更健康的财务习惯。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“But with payment services Klarna or Clearpay, you can now pay for a new phone in three installments (分期付款) and barely notice the difference. This isn’t just a shopping habit; it’s a reflection of how we relate to money today. We are becoming increasingly free of the emotional burden of spending. (但有了Klarna或Clearpay支付服务，你现在可以分三期付款购买新手机，几乎察觉不到差别。这不仅仅是一种购物习惯；这反映了我们今天与金钱的关系。我们正逐渐摆脱消费带来的情感负担)”可知，作者指出，分期付款减少了人们消费时的心理负担。故选D项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Psychologists found that when the act of paying is separated from the act of purchasing, we experience less “pain of paying”, which makes us more likely to overspend. In societies where digital credit is easily accessible but financial education is limited, this behaviour can fall into lasting debt. (心理学家发现，当支付行为与购买行为分开时，我们经历的“支付之痛”就会减少，这使我们更有可能超支。在数字信贷容易获得但金融教育有限的社会，这种行为可能会陷入长期债务)”可知，“先买后付”可能导致超支和长期债务。故选C项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Financial education ought to be treated as essential in schools. Additionally, we should normalize debt-related conversations to relieve people’s feelings of shame. (金融教育应该在学校中被视为必不可少的。此外，我们应该使债务相关的对话正常化，以减轻人们的羞耻感)”可知，作者建议加强金融教育，而非掩盖羞耻感、掩饰财务压力，或强调债务问题。故选A项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“We are becoming increasingly free of the emotional burden of spending. Additionally, our mental health is being profoundly affected by this quiet shift. (我们正逐渐摆脱消费带来的情感负担。此外，我们的心理健康正受到这种悄然转变的深刻影响)”和最后一段“We live in a world where money is invisible. But the emotional burden it takes is very real. If we start noticing that cost, we might finally treat money not only as a resource, but as something deeply psychological. (我们生活在一个看不见金钱的世界。但它带来的情感负担是非常真实的。如果我们开始注意到这种成本，我们可能最终不仅把钱当作一种资源，而且把它当作一种深刻的心理东西)”可知，文章围绕“金钱的情感成本”展开，指出分期付款减少消费痛苦，但可能引发超支和债务，强调金钱对心理健康的影响，并呼吁加强金融教育和债务相关讨论，以建立更健康的财务习惯。因此，B项“金钱的情感成本：超越无形支付”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 D A corn plant knows how to find water in soil with the very tips of its roots, but some varieties, including many used for developing high-output corn in the U.S., appear to have lost part of that ability, according to a Stanford-led study. With climate change increasing droughts, the findings hold potential for developing more drought-resistant varieties of corn. The study, published in the journal Science, uncovers genetic mechanisms (遗传机制) behind “hydropatterning”, or how plant roots branch toward water and avoid dry spaces in soil. In particular, the researchers discovered that ethylene, a plant hormone (激素) known to help bananas ripen, also influences how roots grow to seek water. For this study, the researchers developed a new, simplified way to study water sensitivity in roots. They found corn varieties adapted to hot and wet regions like Mexico were very good at making new root branches toward water and avoiding dry areas. In contrast, the varieties adapted to moderate regions of North America frequently grew roots randomly without distinguishing between dry and wet areas in the soil. “Interestingly, the plants that are better at sensing where the water is are also making deeper root systems,” said lead author Johannes Scharwies. “One idea is that if the plant doesn’t waste time growing root branches into places where it doesn’t find any water and nutrients, then it has more energy to grow deeper down where water is more likely.” Genetic analyses reveal two plant hormones, auxin and ethylene, play a role in how corn roots respond to water. While auxin was already known to help control this process, ethylene’s involvement was a new discovery. In experiments with thale cress — a model plant often used in research — the researchers found auxin signaling promotes root branch development toward water, while ethylene stops branching when the root is exposed to air. Further research is needed to better understand the interaction of these genetic pathways before corn varieties can be developed with more drought-resistant root systems, but the findings highlight the significance of studying these localized responses at root tips, researchers said. 32. What is the primary focus of the Stanford-led study? A. Drought-resistant corn varieties. B. Ethylene’s effect on fruit ripening. C. Genetic regulation of root branching. D. Impact of climate change on plant roots. 33. What can be inferred from Johannes Scharwies’ remarks? A. Plant hormones make a big difference to root growth. B. Nutrients guarantee better water-seeking root systems. C. Root branching conserves energy for higher production. D. Stronger hydropatterning was linked to greater root depth. 34. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. Model plants in research. B. Hormones’ role in root growth. C. Genetic analysis methods. D. Findings of previous research. 35. What does the last paragraph suggest future research do? A. Prioritize development of new corn varieties. B. Work out the mechanisms of genetic interactions. C. Concentrate merely on localized root responses. D. Expand practical applications of hydropatterning. 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. B 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是斯坦福大学领导的一项研究揭示了玉米根系如何感知土壤水分并生长分支的遗传机制。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“The study, published in the journal Science, uncovers genetic mechanisms behind “hydropatterning”, or how plant roots branch toward water and avoid dry spaces in soil.(这项发表在《科学》杂志上的研究揭示了“水模式”背后的遗传机制，即植物的根是如何向水分支并避开土壤中的干燥空间的。)”可知，斯坦福大学领导的这项研究的主要焦点是根分枝的遗传调控。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““Interestingly, the plants that are better at sensing where the water is are also making deeper root systems,” said lead author Johannes Scharwies.(“有趣的是，更善于感知水源的植物根系也更深，”首席作者Johannes Scharwies说。)”可知，从Johannes Scharwies的话中可以推断出更强的水模式与更大的根深有关。故选D。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“Genetic analyses reveal two plant hormones, auxin and ethylene, play a role in how corn roots respond to water. While auxin was already known to help control this process, ethylene’s involvement was a new discovery.(遗传分析揭示了两种植物激素，生长素和乙烯，在玉米根系对水的反应中起作用。虽然已知生长素有助于控制这一过程，但乙烯的参与是一个新发现。)”可知，第五段主要讲的是激素在根生长中的作用。故选B。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Further research is needed to better understand the interaction of these genetic pathways before corn varieties can be developed with more drought-resistant root systems, but the findings highlight the significance of studying these localized responses at root tips, researchers said.(研究人员说，在培育出具有更抗旱根系的玉米品种之前，需要进一步的研究来更好地了解这些遗传途径的相互作用，但是这些发现强调了研究根尖上这些局部反应的重要性。)”可知，最后一段建议未来的研究找出基因相互作用的机制。故选B。 第二节 （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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Everybody gets sad from time to time. Cheering someone up is all about taking the time to listen to them, understanding with what they’re going through, and helping them get a bit of clue. ___36___ Listen to your sad friends. Half of the time, sad or stressed people aren’t really looking for an answer; they just want to be heard and have a chance to let out. Do you know why they’re sad? Do they seem like sharing their feelings with you? ___37___ Ask them relevant questions. There’s no better way to get involved in the conversation other than asking questions, especially questions about how the other person feels. _____38_____ Instead, your questions should motivate the person to talk about their feelings. ____39____ After figuring out just what the problem is, take a bit of time to think over what their best choice of action might be. Let them know you have an idea of what they could do. If you don’t, be honest to them. Take them to a person who has a better fix for the problem than you have. Get face to face if possible. For as great and easy technology makes life, it can also make everything a bit more difficult. It’s tempting to want to send your friend a nice message via text, but that probably won’t do it. ____40____. Since so much of life is spent behind a screen now, paying a face-to-face visit really means something. A. Give them advice when asked. B. Share a similar story if appropriate. C. It’s best to show you really care in person. D. Pull up a chair and give them a shoulder to cry on. E. Here are steps to help your friends start on the way to healing. F. Make them smile by reminding them how much you care about them. G. Asking questions that have nothing to do with the problem will confuse them. 【答案】36. E 37. D 38. G 39. A 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何帮助悲伤的朋友振作起来的具体步骤和方法。 【36题详解】 根据上文内容“Everybody gets sad from time to time. Cheering someone up is all about taking the time to listen to them, understanding with what they’re going through, and helping them get a bit of clue.(每个人都会时不时地感到难过。安慰他人，关键在于花时间倾听他们，理解他们正在经历的事情，并帮助他们找到一丝头绪。)”可知，上文点明要帮助他人振作。而下文各段分别阐述具体做法。选项E“Here are steps to help your friends start on the way to healing.(以下是帮助你的朋友开始走向恢复的步骤)”起到承上启下的作用，引出下文内容。故选E。 【37题详解】 根据上文内容“Listen to your sad friends. Half of the time, sad or stressed people aren’t really looking for an answer; they just want to be heard and have a chance to let out. Do you know why they’ re sad? Do they seem like sharing their feelings with you?(倾听你难过的朋友。多半时候，难过或压力大的人并非真的在寻求答案；他们只是希望被倾听，并有机会倾诉心声。你知道他们为什么难过吗？他们看起来愿意和你分享自己的感受吗？)”可知，上文主要讲述的是倾听难过的朋友的倾诉。选项D“Pull up a chair and give them a shoulder to cry on.(拉过一把椅子，给他们一个可以依靠哭泣的肩膀。)” 形象地体现了倾听并给予支持，符合该段语境。故选D。 【38题详解】 根据上文内容“Ask them relevant questions. There’s no better way to get involved in the conversation other than asking questions, especially questions about how the other person feels.(询问他们相关问题。没有什么比提问更好的方式来参与对话了，尤其是询问关于对方感受的问题。)”可知，上文提到要问一些相关的问题。选项G“Asking questions that have nothing to do with the problem will confuse them.(问与问题无关的问题会让他们困惑。)”与空后“Instead, your questions should motivate the person to talk about their feelings.(相反，你的问题应该促使这个人谈论他们的感受。)”形成对比，强调要问相关问题。故填G。 【39题详解】 空处为段首句，为本段主题句。根据本段内容“After figuring out just what the problem is, take a bit of time to think over what their best choice of action might be. Let them know you have an idea of what they could do. If you don’t, be honest to them. Take them to a person who has a better fix for the problem than you have.(在弄清楚问题究竟是什么之后，花些时间思考他们可能采取的最佳行动方案。让他们知道你对他们可以做什么有想法。如果你没有，那就诚实地告诉他们。带他们去找一个比你更能解决这个问题的人。)”可知，本段主要提到想出解决问题的办法并告知对方。选项A“Give them advice when asked.(当被问及时给他们建议)”符合此段关于给朋友提供解决问题建议的主旨。故选A。 【40题详解】 根据上文内容“Get face to face if possible. For as great and easy technology makes life, it can also make everything a bit more difficult. It’s tempting to want to send your friend a nice message via text, but that probably won’t do it.(如果可能的话，面对面交流。尽管科技让生活变得既美好又便捷，但它也可能使一切变得有点困难。人们很容易想要通过短信给朋友发一条贴心的消息，但这可能没什么效果。)”可知，本段讲述了要面对面交流。而空前则指出想通过短信安慰朋友没什么效果。选项C“It’s best to show you really care in person.(最好亲自去表明你真的关心他们。)”与段首句“Get face to face if possible.(如果可能的话，面对面交流)”相呼应，强调面对面表达关心的重要性。故选C。 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Every year I’d read over 2,000 college applications from students all over the world.

Slowing down, I opened the window and called out, “Need a ride?” I helped her into the passenger seat, and we were off. She directed me to go farther south. Suddenly, I realized we were on the “wrong side of town.” It was starting to get dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old apartment building. The street was dirty and the air was smelly. Several young men gathered around the entrance. They appeared threatening. Some were on motorcycles, and one boy with bushy, long hair was staring at me intently (目不转睛地) — too intently — and smiling. I was getting more and more uncomfortable. I stopped the car. A couple of the guys helped with the groceries. The old lady thanked me, and I drove away as fast as I could. I was driving when I was interrupted by a motorcycle behind me. It was that boy who kept smiling at me with a strange look! In a panic, I slowed down, hoping he would pass me. But he continued to drive at the same speed as me. I realized he was waving for me to stop. No way was I going to stop for a stranger on an unfamiliar street. I tried to speed away, but it didn’t stop him. He raced after me again. Getting increasingly anxious, I reached down in the passenger seat to get my cell phone. I had to call 911. With my eyes on the road, one hand on the wheel and the other hand searching on the seat next to me, I found a phone. But it wasn’t mine. “Oh no, the lady took my phone by mistake!” Meanwhile, the guy on the bike stayed close to me. 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 I saw the boy waving something. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I saw the boy waving something. Squinting through the rearview mirror, I realized it was my cell phone — its familiar case glinting in the dim streetlight. My heart skipped a beat, and I slowly pulled over, still on edge. He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile. “The old lady left this in my apartment building,” he said softly. “I saw it was yours and rushed to catch up. Didn’t mean to scare you.” His words melted my panic, and I felt a rush of embarrassment for judging him so quickly. I felt guilty and wanted to reward the boy. I fumbled in my wallet, but he shook his head firmly. “No need, ma’am. I just didn’t want you to worry about your phone.” His kindness made my cheeks burn. Instead, I asked for his name — Liam — and told him I’d bring him a homemade meal the next day. The next afternoon, I dropped off a plate of lasagna at his apartment. He thanked me with a big grin, and we chatted for a few minutes. That day, I learned never to judge someone by their appearance; sometimes, angels wear leather jackets and ride motorcycles. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述作者在炎热天气载了一位老年妇女，因去了陌生街区且遇到看似有威胁的年轻人而不安，离开后被其中一男孩骑摩托追赶，作者恐慌时发现手机被妇女错拿，后男孩归还手机，作者愧疚并想报答，也明白不能以貌取人。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段内容“我看见那个男孩正挥舞着什么东西。”可知，第一段可描写男孩挥舞着作者的手机追赶，停车后解释是老奶奶遗落让他归还，作者既安心又愧疚。 ②由第二段首句内容“我心怀愧疚，想报答这个男孩。”可知，第二段可描写作者愧疚想报答男孩遭拒，得知其名后送家常千层面，聊天中领悟不可以貌取人，平凡外表下或藏善意。 2. 续写线索：男孩追赶——男孩解释——作者既安心又愧疚——想报答男孩遭拒——聊天——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware that ②停车：pull over/pull up ③担心：worry about/be concerned about 情绪类 ①恐慌：panic/fear/terror ②尴尬：embarrassment/awkwardness 【点睛】【高分句型1】He stopped his motorcycle beside me, holding out the phone with a gentle smile. （运用了现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型2】Instead, I asked for his name — Liam — and told him I’d bring him a homemade meal the next day. （运用了省略that的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
