There is a line-up of great products for you to look forward to. The Air Board 1.0 The Air Board 1.0 is a fantastic new way to get around on two wheels. The board works when you step onto the pressure pads. If you want to turn, all you have to do is move your weight to the left or right. It can travel at the speed of 10 miles an hour and it takes one hour to be fully charged. The power will last for about ten miles. The Miito The Miito kettle is designed to heat up water in any container. You can fill a cup with the right amount of water and place it on the kettle. After you place the heating rod into the water, the rod will heat up the water. More importantly, the product not only saves water, but also saves electricity, not to mention time waiting for the water to boil. The Oculus rift Have you ever wished you could walk through the world of your games, seeing things as the characters would? Well now, you can. This clever headset allows you to see the world of your games in 3D. The Click & Grow Do you enjoy using herbs and spices when cooking? The Click & Grow makes sure that you always have fresh and well-grown herbs or other plants whenever you need them. It is self-watering, and it also has an LED light that makes sure the plants grow fast and healthy. 21. What can we learn about the Air Board 1.0? A. It is completely automatic. B. It can move and turn flexibly. C. It needs a long time to charge. D. It is the most popular transport for teens. 22. Which product sounds the most energy-efficient? A. The Air Board 1.0. B. The Miito. C. The Oculus rift. D. The Click & Grow. 23. Who might be most interested in the Click & Grow? A. Farmers. B. Doctors. C. Gardeners. D. Cooks. 【答案】21. B 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了今年值得期待的四款创新科技产品：Air Board 1.0(气垫滑板)、Miito(智能加热水壶)、Oculus Rift(虚拟现实头盔)和Click & Grow(智能种植机)，分别介绍了它们的功能特点和使用优势。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Air Board 1.0中的“If you want to turn, all you have to do is move your weight to the left or right.(如果你想转弯，只需将重心向左或向右移动)”可知，Air Board 1.0可以灵活移动和转弯。A项“完全自动”文中未提及；C项“需要长时间充电”与原文“takes one hour to be fully charged(只需一小时充满)”矛盾；D项“最受青少年欢迎”文中未提及。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Miito中的“More importantly, the product not only saves water, but also saves electricity, not to mention time waiting for the water to boil.(更重要的是，该产品不仅节约用水，而且节约用电，更不用说等待水沸腾的时间了)”可知，Miito是听起来最节能的产品。故选B。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据The Click & Grow中的“Do you enjoy using herbs and spices when cooking? The Click & Grow makes sure that you always have fresh and well-grown herbs or other plants whenever you need them.(你喜欢在烹饪时使用香草和香料吗？Click & Grow确保你在需要时随时拥有新鲜、生长良好的香草或其他植物)”可推知，厨师会对这款产品最感兴趣。故选D。 B I’ve received dozens of these emails throughout my attempts to become a writer, “Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your work to us. However, this piece is not right for our magazine”, “Thank you for submitting your story to our magazine. Unfortunately, we are unable to publish it”; etc. Nobody likes getting such emails. They are painful and can often be demotivating (使人变得消极). However, one day I received a beautiful rejection letter. The editor wrote that he enjoyed my non-fiction article. He also wrote, “I like your writing style. It is very engaging (引人入胜的). Nevertheless, I did find a few spots in your story where the wording seemed a little unusual to me. Not that it was wrong but that it tended to draw my attention away from the story. You should read as much English as you can to build a vocabulary and usage that draws our attention to feelings, not words.” As a non-native English speaker, I often found it challenging to write in English. But this editor’s letter was of great help to me as it elucidated where and how I should improve my writing. I read Ernest Hemingway’s books and Jane Austen’s classic novels in order to improve my language skills. I read English newspapers and magazines and listened to talk shows on the radio. I learned at least three new words every day. After eight months of this process, I went back and read the essay I had originally sent to the editor. I wrote the story and sent it to the same editor who congratulated me and accepted it for publication. What I took away from this experience was that I should never be satisfied with just “OK” results. I need to keep working on myself and to try to constantly expand my knowledge by taking advantage of every single moment, advice, comment, and review. I do feel uncomfortable sometimes, but I am not scared. The bigger the challenge, the bigger the opportunity to learn and grow. 24. Why was the editor dissatisfied with the author’s article? A. The story was too complicated. B. Some unusual feelings were expressed. C. The writing style was far from engaging. D. Some of the language was not natural enough. 25. What does the underlined word “elucidated” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Proved. B. Clarified. C. Supported D. Confirmed. 26. What did the author learn from her experience? A. Great minds usually think alike. B. Someone always sees the good in you. C. One should always work towards improvement. D. We shouldn’t be ashamed to seek advice from others. 27. What would be the best title of the text? A. Learning from Rejection: A Writer’s Growth B. The Art of Accepting Praise: A Writer’s Strategy C. From Rejection to Publication: A Writer’s Dilemma D. Focusing on Learning Language: A Writer’s Success 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者在写作道路上收到一封有价值的拒稿信，在编辑的建议下不断努力提升英语写作水平，最终文章被录用的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Nevertheless, I did find a few spots in your story where the wording seemed a little unusual to me. Not that it was wrong but that it tended to draw my attention away from the story. (然而，我确实在你的文章中发现了一些措辞在我看来有点不寻常。这并不是说它是错的，只是它容易把我的注意力从故事上移开。)”可知，编辑对作者的文章不满意是因为有些语言表达不够自然。故选D。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“But this editor’s letter was of great help to me as it elucidated where and how I should improve my writing. (但这封编辑的信对我帮助很大，因为它elucidated我应该在哪些方面以及如何改进我的写作。)”并结合后文“I read Ernest Hemingway’s books and Jane Austen’s classic novels in order to improve my language skills. (我阅读欧内斯特·海明威的作品和简·奥斯汀的经典小说，目的是提高自己的语言能力。)”可知，这封信指出了作者的改进方向，即阐明了作者应该在哪些方面改进，进而推断elucidated意为“阐明、澄清”。故选B。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“What I took away from this experience was that I should never be satisfied with just ‘OK’ results. I need to keep working on myself and to try to constantly expand my knowledge by taking advantage of every single moment, advice, comment, and review. (我从这段经历中学到的是，我永远不应该满足于仅仅‘还不错’的结果。我需要不断提升自己，努力利用每一刻、每一条建议、每一句评价和每一次评论来不断拓展知识。)”可知，作者从经历中学到一个人应该始终努力进步。故选C。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述作者从一封拒稿信中获得建议，不断提升写作能力，最终文章被发表的成长经历。A选项“从拒绝中学习：一位作家的成长”最能概括文章主旨，适合用作标题。故选A。 C A rocket built by students at the University of Southern California (USC) Rocket Propulsion Lab (RPL) has broken a 20-year record. Aftershock Ⅱ, launched from Nevada’s Black Rock Desert on October 20, 2024, reached an altitude (高度) of 470,000 feet. This was 90,000 feet higher than the previous amateur rocket altitude record of 380,000 feet. The record was set by the Civilian Space Exploration Team’s GoFast rocket in 2004. The 14-foot tall Aftershock Ⅱ broke the sound barrier within two seconds of launch. It reached a maximum speed of 3,600 mph — 5.5 times the speed of sound — just 19 seconds after launch. This slightly exceeded the speed record set by GoFast in 2004. While its engine burned out shortly after launch, Aftershock Ⅱ continued its ascent. It left the Earth’s atmosphere in about 85 seconds after launch and reached its peak altitude in 92 seconds. At this point, the rocket’s nose cone detached and deployed its parachute (降落伞) for a safe landing in the desert. Here, the eagerly waiting student scientists got it back. Aftershock Ⅱ’s success can largely be credited to technological innovations developed by the 100-person team at RPL. The rocket’s titanium-coated (钛涂层的) fins and a new heat-resistant paint enabled it to endure the extreme temperatures generated at high speeds. Student-designed computer systems allowed real-time rocket position tracking and sent back live data throughout the flight. “This was probably the coolest thing we’ve gotten the opportunity to do. We’re just college students who have homework, dishes and groceries to do, and we just sent a rocket to space. We broke the world record and sent a rocket higher than anyone ever has,” said Operations Lead Jayna Rvbner. RPL was founded in 2005 to launch student-designed and built rockets into space. The student-led group made history in 2019 when their Traveler Ⅳ rocket became the first student-built rocket to cross the Kármán line. This imaginary line, 328,083 feet above the Earth’s surface, marks the internationally recognized edge of space. 28. Which of the following best describes Aftershock Ⅱ? A. The highest-flying civilian-built rocket. B. The first entirely student-designed rocket. C. The fastest commercially-launched rocket. D. The most technologically advanced rocket. 29. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The performance of GoFast rocket. B. The flight details of Aftershock Ⅱ. C. The major achievements of USCRL. D. The design features of Aftershock Ⅱ. 30. What can be inferred from Rvbner’s words? A. The launch earned widespread recognition. B. Aftershock Ⅱ raised students’ interest in rocketry. C. Students took great pride in their accomplishments. D. GoFast’s success inspired technological innovation. 31. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To provide some advice for readers. B. To add some background information. C. To summarize the previous paragraphs. D. To introduce a new topic for discussion. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。介绍了南加州大学火箭推进实验室（RPL）的学生团队设计制造的火箭Aftershock Ⅱ，于2024年10月20日发射升空，打破了保持20年的业余火箭飞行高度纪录，同时阐述了该火箭的飞行表现、技术创新及RPL团队的相关背景。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A rocket built by students at the University of Southern California (USC) Rocket Propulsion Lab (RPL) has broken a 20-year record. Aftershock Ⅱ, launched from Nevada’s Black Rock Desert on October 20, 2024, reached an altitude (高度) of 470,000 feet. This was 90,000 feet higher than the previous amateur rocket altitude record of 380,000 feet. The record was set by the Civilian Space Exploration Team’s GoFast rocket in 2004.(南加州大学火箭推进实验室（RPL）的学生制造的一枚火箭打破了一项保持20年的纪录。2024年10月20日，从内华达州黑岩沙漠发射的Aftershock Ⅱ达到了47万英尺的高度。这比此前38万英尺的业余火箭高度纪录高出9万英尺。该纪录由民间太空探索团队的GoFast火箭于2004年创下。)”可知，Aftershock Ⅱ是飞行高度最高的民用自制火箭。故选A。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The 14-foot tall Aftershock Ⅱ broke the sound barrier within two seconds of launch. It reached a maximum speed of 3,600 mph — 5.5 times the speed of sound — just 19 seconds after launch. This slightly exceeded the speed record set by GoFast in 2004. While its engine burned out shortly after launch, Aftershock Ⅱ continued its ascent. It left the Earth’s atmosphere in about 85 seconds after launch and reached its peak altitude in 92 seconds. At this point, the rocket’s nose cone detached and deployed its parachute (降落伞) for a safe landing in the desert. Here, the eagerly waiting student scientists got it back.(这枚14英尺高的Aftershock Ⅱ在发射后两秒内突破了音障。发射仅19秒后，它就达到了3600英里/小时的最大速度——是音速的5.5倍。这略微超过了GoFast火箭2004年创造的速度纪录。虽然它的发动机在发射后不久就熄火了，但Aftershock Ⅱ继续攀升。它在发射约85秒后离开地球大气层，并在92秒后达到峰值高度。此时，火箭的鼻锥分离并展开降落伞，以便在沙漠中安全着陆。在那里，热切等待的学生科学家们找回了它。)”可知，整段围绕该火箭的飞行细节展开。故选B。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“This was probably the coolest thing we’ve gotten the opportunity to do. We’re just college students who have homework, dishes and groceries to do, and we just sent a rocket to space. We broke the world record and sent a rocket higher than anyone ever has.(这可能是我们有机会做的最酷的事。我们只是一群有作业、要洗碗、要买菜的大学生，却把一枚火箭送入了太空。我们打破了世界纪录，把火箭送到了比任何其他火箭都高的地方。)”可知，学生们对自己取得的成就感到无比自豪。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“RPL was founded in 2005 to launch student-designed and built rockets into space. The student-led group made history in 2019 when their Traveler Ⅳ rocket became the first student-built rocket to cross the Kármán line. This imaginary line, 328,083 feet above the Earth’s surface, marks the internationally recognized edge of space.(RPL成立于2005年，旨在将学生设计和制造的火箭送入太空。这个由学生主导的团队在2019年创造了历史，他们的Traveler Ⅳ火箭成为首枚跨越卡门线的学生自制火箭。这条想象中的线位于地球表面上方328083英尺，是国际公认的太空边界。)”可知，本段内容为前文介绍的Aftershock Ⅱ火箭及团队补充了背景信息。故选B。 D As adults, attention and concentration are characteristics of the mind that we use daily, often with little effort and without conscious awareness. A crucial factor to consider here is that, like many other skills, attention and concentration improve as our brains mature and develop. Children and teens have limitations to their attention since their brains are not fully mature until well beyond their twentieth birthday. A child’s attention span improves with age. However, it is important to note that some children may experience difficulties in focusing on tasks or concentrating on their studies and other activities. They may lose concentration more easily than their peers, which can be very distressing for everyone involved. Troubles with attention may also mean that something is not quite right in the world of the child. It is important for parents and teachers to be aware of what may be drawing away their attention to help them regain focus. Here are some key points to remember, so please pay attention! First, attention and concentration are not the same thing. Simply speaking, attention is a complex brain system that selects and temporarily focuses on key emotionally important elements in our surrounding environment, while concentration is the ability to focus on a specific task for an extended period of time. Both are powerfully influenced by a child’s current emotional state as well as their overall development. A child who is under stress will find it difficult to pay attention or concentrate on schoolwork or other related activities. In other words, emotions and stress have an impact on attention and concentration. Therefore, it is important to recognize the signs that a child may be troubled or stressed. Signs and symptoms that might indicate that something is not right in the world of a child include the difficulty completing classroom work or housework, avoiding writing or reading, failing to meet deadlines while completing classroom tasks, and making noises or disturbing people around them. It should be apparent that, like many things that can impact how well a child does at school or home, it doesn’t take much to improve things. 32. What is a key factor that affects a child’s ability to pay attention? A. The child’s physical condition. B. The child’s family atmosphere. C. The child’s development of the brain. D. The child’s previous educational background. 33. How does concentration differ from attention? A. Attention is age-related. B. Concentration is sustainable. C. Concentration targets on people. D. Attention stresses the emotional state. 34. What is considered a typical sign of attention problems in children? A. Completing tasks in advance. B. Disturbing others unintentionally. C. Keeping away from assignments. D. Performing terribly in examinations. 35. What will probably be talked about next? A. Specific examples of attention difficulties. B. The effects of concentration on kids’ studies. C. The importance of early childhood education. D. Approaches to helping children improve attention. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. C 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍儿童注意力与专注力的区别、影响因素及问题表现。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Children and teens have limitations to their attention since their brains are not fully mature until well beyond their twentieth birthday.(儿童和青少年的注意力是有限的，因为他们的大脑要到20多岁才能完全成熟)”可知，影响孩子注意力的关键因素是孩子大脑的发育。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Simply speaking, attention is a complex brain system that selects and temporarily focuses on key emotionally important elements in our surrounding environment, while concentration is the ability to focus on a specific task for an extended period of time.(简单地说，注意力是一个复杂的大脑系统，它选择并暂时专注于我们周围环境中关键的情感重要元素，而专注力则是在较长时间内专注于特定任务的能力)”可知，专注力与注意力的不同在于专注力是可以持续的。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Signs and symptoms that might indicate that something is not right in the world of a child include the difficulty completing classroom work or housework, avoiding writing or reading, failing to meet deadlines while completing classroom tasks, and making noises or disturbing people around them.(可能表明孩子的世界出了问题的迹象和症状包括：难以完成课堂作业或家务，避免写作或阅读，未能在完成课堂任务时按时完成，以及发出噪音或打扰周围的人)”可知，儿童注意力问题的典型表现是回避任务。故选C。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It should be apparent that, like many things that can impact how well a child does at school or home, it doesn’t take much to improve things.(很明显，就像许多能影响孩子在学校或家里表现的事情一样，改善情况并不需要太多)”可知，文章主要论述了影响孩子注意力的因素和孩子注意力不集中的表现，最后一段点明改善情况并不需要太多，文章接下来可能会讨论帮助孩子提高注意力的方法。故选D。 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。 Emotions are coming through us — anger, joy or fear. We must regularly recognize and fully experience all our emotions. ____36____ Mental discomfort is born out of an accumulation of unfelt feelings. We should develop a habit of setting aside time for ourselves every day. We aim to become more familiar with our true emotions during this time. We must keep asking ourselves a question: What am I feeling? ____37____ We should sit somewhere quiet with a pen handy to draw out valuable answers. We should close our eyes and let the generosity and free-form nature of the question resonate. After a few moments of searching the shadows of our thoughts, we will likely find some hints of something. ____38____ With some of the stealth (潜行) of a hunter in the undergrowth or a fisherman by the bank of a river, we can press ourselves to reflect further: what does it seem we are actually anxious about? ____39____ There, many unexpressed feelings are hidden within us. “What is my body feeling?” we can ask, strangely but usefully. “What would it like to talk to me about if only it could?” And to get more specific: “If my shoulders could speak right now, what might they say? And my chest, what would it say?” Through ten or twenty minutes of this kind of concentrated but loose and exploratory (探究的) wander through ourselves, we reduce the worry and sorrow of unfelt feelings. Before, we felt unhappy, but now we become sad. ____40____ And where we were worried, we now show caring. This change brings us a new sense of calm and makes our hearts feel lighter. We seem to have so much time for everything — except for what can save us. A. It might be a quiet sign of hidden anxiety. B. It is a simple but grand and deep question. C. We rush through the challenges of our lives. D. Where we were annoyed, we now feel angry. E. We should apply the same approach to our bodies. F. Our feelings get ignored because they enter our minds too fast. G. Otherwise, we may suffer from various mental health problems. 【答案】36. G 37. B 38. A 39. E 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了通过每日自我觉察、深入探究内心感受来释放被压抑的情绪，从而缓解心理不适、获得内心平静的方法。 【36题详解】 上文“Emotions are coming through us — anger, joy or fear. We must regularly recognize and fully experience all our emotions. (情绪正流经我们——愤怒、喜悦或恐惧。我们必须定期识别并充分体验我们所有的情绪)”强调了识别和体验情绪的必要性。G选项“Otherwise, we may suffer from various mental health problems. (否则，我们可能会遭受各种心理健康问题)”承接上文，用“Otherwise”引出未能识别和体验情绪可能导致的严重后果。下文“Mental discomfort is born out of an accumulation of unfelt feelings. (心理不适源于未被感受的情绪的积累)”则具体阐述了这种后果的表现形式——心理不适。故选G项。 【37题详解】 上文“We should develop a habit of setting aside time for ourselves every day. We aim to become more familiar with our true emotions during this time. We must keep asking ourselves a question: What am I feeling? (我们应该养成每天留出时间给自己的习惯。我们的目标是在这段时间里更熟悉自己真实的情绪。我们必须不断问自己一个问题：我现在有什么感觉?)”描述了自我觉察的具体做法，并引出一个核心问题。B选项“It is a simple but grand and deep question. (这是一个简单却又宏大而深刻的问题)”承接上文，对上文提出的问题“What am I feeling?”进行评价，点明其看似简单实则深刻的特点，从而凸显了持续追问这一问题的价值。该句作为段落收束自然合理。故选B项。 【38题详解】 上文“We should sit somewhere quiet with a pen handy to draw out valuable answers. We should close our eyes and let the generosity and free-form nature of the question resonate. After a few moments of searching the shadows of our thoughts, we will likely find some hints of something. (我们应该坐在安静的地方，手边备好笔以引出有价值的答案。我们应该闭上眼睛，让问题的包容性和自由形式引发共鸣。在思绪的阴影中搜寻片刻后，我们很可能会发现一些线索)”描述了静坐自省的过程，并指出会发现一些线索。A选项“It might be a quiet sign of hidden anxiety. (它可能是隐藏焦虑的无声迹象)”承接上文，用“It”指代上文的“hints of something (一些线索)”，对这些线索的性质进行解读——可能是潜在焦虑的信号。下文“With some of the stealth (潜行) of a hunter in the undergrowth or a fisherman by the bank of a river, we can press ourselves to reflect further: what does it seem we are actually anxious about? (带着些许林中猎人或河边渔夫的潜行般的隐蔽，我们可以迫使自己进一步反思：我们似乎真正焦虑的是什么?)”则建议对这些线索进行更深层的追问，形成“发现线索—解读线索—深入追问”的逻辑链。故选A项。 【39题详解】 下文“There, many unexpressed feelings are hidden within us. “What is my body feeling?” we can ask, strangely but usefully. “What would it like to talk to me about if only it could?” And to get more specific: “If my shoulders could speak right now, what might they say? And my chest, what would it say?” (在那里，许多未被表达的情感隐藏在我们体内。“我的身体有什么感觉?”我们可以这样问，这问题虽奇怪却有用。“如果它能的话，它想对我说什么?”为了更具体：“如果我的肩膀现在能说话，它们会说什么?我的胸口呢，它会说什么?”)”整段都在引导读者将关注点从内心情绪转向身体感受，通过与身体对话来发掘隐藏的情感。E选项“We should apply the same approach to our bodies. (我们应该将同样的方法应用于我们的身体)”作为本段首句，精准概括了下文的核心内容——将之前用于探索内心情绪的“自我提问法”同样应用于身体感受的探索，起到总领全段的作用。故选E项。 【40题详解】 上文“Through ten or twenty minutes of this kind of concentrated but loose and exploratory (探究的) wander through ourselves, we reduce the worry and sorrow of unfelt feelings. Before, we felt unhappy, but now we become sad. (经过十到二十分钟这种专注而又松散、探索性的自我漫游，我们减少了未被感受的情绪所带来的担忧和悲伤。之前，我们感到不快乐，但现在我们变得悲伤)”描述了自我探索后的情绪变化——从不具体的“不快乐”转变为更具体的“悲伤”。D选项“Where we were annoyed, we now feel angry. (之前我们感到烦恼的地方，现在我们感到愤怒)”承接上文，与上文句式一致，构成并列，补充了另一种情绪转变的类型——从模糊的“烦恼”到清晰的“愤怒”。下文“And where we were worried, we now show caring. This change brings us a new sense of calm and makes our hearts feel lighter. (而之前我们担忧的地方，现在我们表现出关切。这种变化给我们带来一种新的平静感，让我们的心感到更轻盈)”则进一步描述了情绪从“担忧”到“关切”的转变及其带来的积极效果，与D选项共同说明自我探索使情绪从模糊状态转变为具体、可识别的状态，从而带来内心的释然。故选D项。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 Artist David Nott takes tufting (簇绒) to a whole new level, turning the traditional carpet-making technique into eye-catching wall art. ____41____ by abstract patterns and rich colors, he uses a tufting gun to ____42____ excellent art that adds a playful touch to any home.

She was born with many physical issues affecting her tiny body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it, but she had a strange figure that everyone could recognize, even from a distance. In Emily’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (观众席) at Christmas. It had been performed for so many years that it had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the townsfolk. Each year, many people tried out for the show, but most were turned away. Only the best performers were invited to take part. Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year, she asked Mrs. Owens, her music teacher, if she could join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Emily’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable too.” Mrs. Owens sent Emily back through the door of the choral (合唱队的) room without even hearing her sing a single note. Hurt and upset, Emily decided never to try out again. But then Mrs. Owens retired, and the following school year, a new music teacher arrived, named Mr. Butler. He had heard about Emily and suggested that she give it a try. Emily didn’t want to be refused again, so she was a little hesitant to say yes. As Emily struggled with her decision, the door was pushed open and Mr. Butler said, “Emily, you’re next.” Although she was nervous, Emily did as Mr. Butler told her to do. Mr. Butler sat by the piano to accompany Emily. When Emily finished her test performance, she thanked Mr Butler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day. Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was worried that she would never fit in. By the next morning, the stress was too much to bear and she started to feel sick. 续写要求： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally, the day of performance came. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Paragraph 1: The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. She was not rejected this time. Her name was posted at the top of the list. She, Emily White, was chosen to be the leading singer! She would sing alone in the performance. Emily couldn’t believe her eyes. There must be some mistake. But Mr. Buttler said to her with determined eyes, “Emily, I choose you because you should perform the part — your voice is unusual. Believe in yourself.” Greatly encouraged, Emily practiced really hard. Paragraph 2: Finally, the day of performance came. Standing in front of the line, Emily felt her throat tight and her palms sweating. When the curtain opened up, the eyes of the whole audience fell upon Emily. “Emily White!” Someone whispered. Then, along with the first note of music, Emily began to sing her heart out. Her voice was like a nightingale ringing in the auditorium. Applause! Emily felt so happy and comfortable. She was shining on the stage. Emily White, with so many birth problems in her body, was an angel. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Emily White生来有很多生理问题，影响着她小小的身体。但是她有一副美丽的嗓音，一开始想要参加圣诞节演出但是被Owens老师拒绝了。下一年Emily在Butler老师的鼓励下，再次申请参加演出，结果被选为主唱，完成了演出。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，Emily紧张地看了看合唱教室门上的名单”可知，第一段可描写Emily被选为主唱，受到鼓舞，刻苦地进行练习。 ②由第二段首句内容“终于，演出的日子到了”可知，第二段可描写Emily演出的经过，以及观众的反应。 2.续写线索：紧张查看名单——选为主唱——刻苦练习——演出日到来——演出经过——获得成功 3.词汇激活 行为类 激励：encourage/motivate 开始：begin/start 拒绝：reject/turn down 情绪类 坚定的：determined/firm 快乐的：happy/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] Emily, I choose you because you should perform the part — your voice is unusual. (运用了because引导原因状语从句) [高分句型2] When the curtain opened up, the eyes of the whole audience fell upon Emily.

There is a line-up of great products for you to look forward to. The Air Board 1.0 The Air Board 1.0 is a fantastic new way to get around on two wheels. The board works when you step onto the pressure pads. If you want to turn, all you have to do is move your weight to the left or right. It can travel at the speed of 10 miles an hour and it takes one hour to be fully charged. The power will last for about ten miles. The Miito The Miito kettle is designed to heat up water in any container. You can fill a cup with the right amount of water and place it on the kettle. After you place the heating rod into the water, the rod will heat up the water. More importantly, the product not only saves water, but also saves electricity, not to mention time waiting for the water to boil. The Oculus rift Have you ever wished you could walk through the world of your games, seeing things as the characters would? Well now, you can.

B I’ve received dozens of these emails throughout my attempts to become a writer, “Thank you so much for taking the time to submit your work to us. However, this piece is not right for our magazine”, “Thank you for submitting your story to our magazine. Unfortunately, we are unable to publish it”; etc. Nobody likes getting such emails. They are painful and can often be demotivating (使人变得消极). However, one day I received a beautiful rejection letter. The editor wrote that he enjoyed my non-fiction article. He also wrote, “I like your writing style. It is very engaging (引人入胜的). Nevertheless, I did find a few spots in your story where the wording seemed a little unusual to me. Not that it was wrong but that it tended to draw my attention away from the story. You should read as much English as you can to build a vocabulary and usage that draws our attention to feelings, not words.” As a non-native English speaker, I often found it challenging to write in English. But this editor’s letter was of great help to me as it elucidated where and how I should improve my writing. I read Ernest Hemingway’s books and Jane Austen’s classic novels in order to improve my language skills. I read English newspapers and magazines and listened to talk shows on the radio. I learned at least three new words every day. After eight months of this process, I went back and read the essay I had originally sent to the editor. I wrote the story and sent it to the same editor who congratulated me and accepted it for publication. What I took away from this experience was that I should never be satisfied with just “OK” results. I need to keep working on myself and to try to constantly expand my knowledge by taking advantage of every single moment, advice, comment, and review. I do feel uncomfortable sometimes, but I am not scared. The bigger the challenge, the bigger the opportunity to learn and grow. 24. Why was the editor dissatisfied with the author’s article? A. The story was too complicated. B. Some unusual feelings were expressed. C. The writing style was far from engaging. D. Some of the language was not natural enough. 25. What does the underlined word “elucidated” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Proved. B. Clarified. C. Supported D. Confirmed. 26. What did the author learn from her experience? A. Great minds usually think alike. B. Someone always sees the good in you. C. One should always work towards improvement. D. We shouldn’t be ashamed to seek advice from others. 27. What would be the best title of the text? A. Learning from Rejection: A Writer’s Growth B. The Art of Accepting Praise: A Writer’s Strategy C. From Rejection to Publication: A Writer’s Dilemma D. Focusing on Learning Language: A Writer’s Success C A rocket built by students at the University of Southern California (USC) Rocket Propulsion Lab (RPL) has broken a 20-year record. Aftershock Ⅱ, launched from Nevada’s Black Rock Desert on October 20, 2024, reached an altitude (高度) of 470,000 feet. This was 90,000 feet higher than the previous amateur rocket altitude record of 380,000 feet. The record was set by the Civilian Space Exploration Team’s GoFast rocket in 2004. The 14-foot tall Aftershock Ⅱ broke the sound barrier within two seconds of launch. It reached a maximum speed of 3,600 mph — 5.5 times the speed of sound — just 19 seconds after launch. This slightly exceeded the speed record set by GoFast in 2004. While its engine burned out shortly after launch, Aftershock Ⅱ continued its ascent. It left the Earth’s atmosphere in about 85 seconds after launch and reached its peak altitude in 92 seconds. At this point, the rocket’s nose cone detached and deployed its parachute (降落伞) for a safe landing in the desert. Here, the eagerly waiting student scientists got it back. Aftershock Ⅱ’s success can largely be credited to technological innovations developed by the 100-person team at RPL. The rocket’s titanium-coated (钛涂层的) fins and a new heat-resistant paint enabled it to endure the extreme temperatures generated at high speeds. Student-designed computer systems allowed real-time rocket position tracking and sent back live data throughout the flight. “This was probably the coolest thing we’ve gotten the opportunity to do. We’re just college students who have homework, dishes and groceries to do, and we just sent a rocket to space. We broke the world record and sent a rocket higher than anyone ever has,” said Operations Lead Jayna Rvbner. RPL was founded in 2005 to launch student-designed and built rockets into space. The student-led group made history in 2019 when their Traveler Ⅳ rocket became the first student-built rocket to cross the Kármán line. This imaginary line, 328,083 feet above the Earth’s surface, marks the internationally recognized edge of space. 28. Which of the following best describes Aftershock Ⅱ? A. The highest-flying civilian-built rocket. B. The first entirely student-designed rocket. C. The fastest commercially-launched rocket. D. The most technologically advanced rocket. 29. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The performance of GoFast rocket. B. The flight details of Aftershock Ⅱ. C. The major achievements of USCRL. D. The design features of Aftershock Ⅱ. 30. What can be inferred from Rvbner’s words? A. The launch earned widespread recognition. B. Aftershock Ⅱ raised students’ interest in rocketry. C. Students took great pride in their accomplishments. D. GoFast’s success inspired technological innovation. 31. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To provide some advice for readers. B. To add some background information. C. To summarize the previous paragraphs. D. To introduce a new topic for discussion. D As adults, attention and concentration are characteristics of the mind that we use daily, often with little effort and without conscious awareness. A crucial factor to consider here is that, like many other skills, attention and concentration improve as our brains mature and develop. Children and teens have limitations to their attention since their brains are not fully mature until well beyond their twentieth birthday. A child’s attention span improves with age. However, it is important to note that some children may experience difficulties in focusing on tasks or concentrating on their studies and other activities. They may lose concentration more easily than their peers, which can be very distressing for everyone involved. Troubles with attention may also mean that something is not quite right in the world of the child. It is important for parents and teachers to be aware of what may be drawing away their attention to help them regain focus. Here are some key points to remember, so please pay attention! First, attention and concentration are not the same thing. Simply speaking, attention is a complex brain system that selects and temporarily focuses on key emotionally important elements in our surrounding environment, while concentration is the ability to focus on a specific task for an extended period of time. Both are powerfully influenced by a child’s current emotional state as well as their overall development. A child who is under stress will find it difficult to pay attention or concentrate on schoolwork or other related activities. In other words, emotions and stress have an impact on attention and concentration. Therefore, it is important to recognize the signs that a child may be troubled or stressed. Signs and symptoms that might indicate that something is not right in the world of a child include the difficulty completing classroom work or housework, avoiding writing or reading, failing to meet deadlines while completing classroom tasks, and making noises or disturbing people around them. It should be apparent that, like many things that can impact how well a child does at school or home, it doesn’t take much to improve things. 32. What is a key factor that affects a child’s ability to pay attention? A. The child’s physical condition. B. The child’s family atmosphere. C. The child’s development of the brain. D. The child’s previous educational background. 33. How does concentration differ from attention? A. Attention is age-related. B. Concentration is sustainable. C. Concentration targets on people. D. Attention stresses the emotional state. 34. What is considered a typical sign of attention problems in children? A. Completing tasks in advance. B. Disturbing others unintentionally. C. Keeping away from assignments. D. Performing terribly in examinations. 35. What will probably be talked about next? A. Specific examples of attention difficulties. B. The effects of concentration on kids’ studies. C. The importance of early childhood education. D. Approaches to helping children improve attention. 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。 Emotions are coming through us — anger, joy or fear. We must regularly recognize and fully experience all our emotions. ____36____ Mental discomfort is born out of an accumulation of unfelt feelings. We should develop a habit of setting aside time for ourselves every day. We aim to become more familiar with our true emotions during this time. We must keep asking ourselves a question: What am I feeling? ____37____ We should sit somewhere quiet with a pen handy to draw out valuable answers. We should close our eyes and let the generosity and free-form nature of the question resonate. After a few moments of searching the shadows of our thoughts, we will likely find some hints of something. ____38____ With some of the stealth (潜行) of a hunter in the undergrowth or a fisherman by the bank of a river, we can press ourselves to reflect further: what does it seem we are actually anxious about? ____39____ There, many unexpressed feelings are hidden within us. “What is my body feeling?” we can ask, strangely but usefully. “What would it like to talk to me about if only it could?” And to get more specific: “If my shoulders could speak right now, what might they say? And my chest, what would it say?” Through ten or twenty minutes of this kind of concentrated but loose and exploratory (探究的) wander through ourselves, we reduce the worry and sorrow of unfelt feelings. Before, we felt unhappy, but now we become sad. ____40____ And where we were worried, we now show caring. This change brings us a new sense of calm and makes our hearts feel lighter. We seem to have so much time for everything — except for what can save us. A. It might be a quiet sign of hidden anxiety. B. It is a simple but grand and deep question. C. We rush through the challenges of our lives. D. Where we were annoyed, we now feel angry. E. We should apply the same approach to our bodies. F. Our feelings get ignored because they enter our minds too fast. G. Otherwise, we may suffer from various mental health problems. 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 Artist David Nott takes tufting (簇绒) to a whole new level, turning the traditional carpet-making technique into eye-catching wall art. ____41____ by abstract patterns and rich colors, he uses a tufting gun to ____42____ excellent art that adds a playful touch to any home.

She was born with many physical issues affecting her tiny body. Some of her organs, bones and muscles were out of shape. No one expected her to survive. She did make it, but she had a strange figure that everyone could recognize, even from a distance. In Emily’s hometown, there was a yearly outdoor performance in the school auditorium (观众席) at Christmas. It had been performed for so many years that it had become one of the most important events of the Christmas season for many of the townsfolk. Each year, many people tried out for the show, but most were turned away. Only the best performers were invited to take part. Emily had a beautiful singing voice. Last year, she asked Mrs. Owens, her music teacher, if she could join in the performance. Without letting her sing, Mrs. Owens took a look at Emily’s body and said, “Child, you just don’t fit. Everyone would stare at you and that would make you uncomfortable. It would make them uncomfortable too.” Mrs. Owens sent Emily back through the door of the choral (合唱队的) room without even hearing her sing a single note. Hurt and upset, Emily decided never to try out again. But then Mrs. Owens retired, and the following school year, a new music teacher arrived, named Mr. Butler. He had heard about Emily and suggested that she give it a try. Emily didn’t want to be refused again, so she was a little hesitant to say yes. As Emily struggled with her decision, the door was pushed open and Mr. Butler said, “Emily, you’re next.” Although she was nervous, Emily did as Mr. Butler told her to do. Mr. Butler sat by the piano to accompany Emily. When Emily finished her test performance, she thanked Mr Butler and knew the result would be posted on the door of the choral room the next day. Emily couldn’t sleep that night. She was worried that she would never fit in. By the next morning, the stress was too much to bear and she started to feel sick. 续写要求： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The next day, Emily nervously glanced at the list on the door of the choral room. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Finally, the day of performance came. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $英语听力模拟试题第一节听下面五段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。I've worked our flights .
