Like many visually-impaired children, she finished compulsory education at a school for disabled people and began learning Tuina. In 2003, she finally obtained a job. Her life then was like a fixed route, but Dong was unwilling to take it for granted. “Teachers always told me not to give up learning new knowledge because it could give me more options in life,” she said. One day she found an anchor (节目主持人) training program for visually-impaired youth. Dong realized that this might be her big moment, and she made a life-changing phone call. After the training at the organization, Dong was recommended to a workshop at a radio station where she was the only visually-impaired person in the class. Her physical disability forced her to make an extra effort in her spare time. “My pronunciation was often not accurate, yet I could not correct it by looking into the mirror, and the teacher figured out a way that I touched his mouth to follow the way he pronounced,” said Dong. Despite all the difficulties, Dong achieved the top level in the Mandarin proficiency test. In 2015, she became the host of a radio program and in 2020, she returned to the Communication University of China to pursue a master’s degree in broadcast and television. “Life may not be perfect, but we can make up for it with our own hard work and the support of society,” said Dong. 4.

A brain signal that lights up when we anticipate rewards may hold the secret to helping people overcome depression, and Virginia Tech researchers are working to unlock its potential. Professors Pearl Chiu and Brooks Casas are pioneering a personalized approach to treating depression by exploring how our brains process rewards and setbacks. Their study examines two brain signals—prediction error and expected value—that may predict whether someone with depression is likely to see their symptoms improve. Major depression affects over 21 million Americans annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and remains a leading cause of disability worldwide. Yet current treatment often falls short, leaving many without lasting relief. “Major depression isn’t one-size-fits-all,” said Chiu. “People with depression learn and respond to rewards and setbacks differently, often in ways that align with specific symptoms.” Using computer models, researchers studied how the brain’s reward system works in people with depression, especially those who can’t feel pleasure. By looking at dopamine (多巴胺) responses, they found unique brain patterns that might predict who will recover. Their responses reveal the brain’s capacity to learn from outcomes, Chiu said, and could form the basis for a new kind of therapy (疗法) using tailored learning processes to guide the brain’s responses to different outcomes. The study identified two key brain signals—prediction error and expected value—as essential indicators of recovery potential for depression. Expected value, which reflects the brain’s anticipation of rewards and guides decision-making, emerged as a consistent predictor of remission across treatment types. Prediction error, which highlights gaps between expected and actual outcomes to help individuals adjust their behavior, offered additional insights. Together, prediction error and expected value provided a richer understanding of how unique learning patterns influence mental health outcomes, paving the way for tailored, symptom-specific therapies. 8. What is the main purpose of the study? A. To find the cause of depression. B. To develop a new drug for depression. C. To explore personalized treatment for depression. D. To test the efficiency of current treatment for depression. 9. What is the underlined part “align” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Match. B. Differ. C. Contrast. D. Conflict. 10. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A The research process. B. The models scientists created. C. The study method and its result. D. The dopamine found in human cells. 11. What are the signals of prediction error and expected value used for? A. Measuring physical health. B. Predicting recovery from depression. C. Assessing the severity of depression. D. Identifying the symptoms of depression. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述了弗吉尼亚理工大学的科学家 Pearl Chiu 和 Brooks Casas 进行的一项研究，该研究旨在探索大脑中与奖励学习相关的信号，期望找到个性化治疗抑郁症的方法。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“A brain signal that lights up when we anticipate rewards may hold the secret to helping people overcome depression, and Virginia Tech researchers are working to unlock its potential.(当我们期待奖励时亮起的大脑信号可能是帮助人们克服抑郁症的关键，弗吉尼亚理工大学的研究人员正在努力挖掘其潜力)以及第二段 “Professors Pearl Chiu and Brooks Casas are pioneering a personalized approach to treating depression by exploring how our brains process rewards and setbacks.(Pearl Chiu 教授和 Brooks Casas 教授正在开创一种个性化的治疗抑郁症的方法，他们通过探索我们的大脑如何处理奖励和挫折来实现这一目标)”可知，该研究的主要目的是探索个性化治疗抑郁症的方法。故选C。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第四段“Major depression isn’t one-size-fits-all(重度抑郁症并不是一刀切的)”和“People with depression learn and respond to rewards and setbacks differently, often in ways that align with specific symptoms.(抑郁症患者对奖励和挫折的学习和反应方式不同，且这些方式通常与特定症状align)可知，抑郁症的治疗是复杂的，这是因为患者对奖励和挫折的学习和反应方式不同，且这些方式常有特定的症状，即与特定症状一致。所以这里的 “align” 意思是“与……一致”。故选 A。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“Using computer models, researchers studied how the brain’s reward system works in people with depression, especially those who can’t feel pleasure. By looking at dopamine (多巴胺) responses, they found unique brain patterns that might predict who will recover.(研究人员使用计算机模型，研究了抑郁症患者大脑的奖励系统是如何工作的，特别是那些无法感受到快乐的患者。通过观察多巴胺反应，他们发现了可能预测谁会康复的独特大脑模式)”可知，该段主要讲了研究方法（使用计算机模型和观察多巴胺反应）和研究结果（发现独特大脑模式可预测康复情况）。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The study identified two key brain signals—prediction error and expected value—as essential indicators of recovery potential for depression.(该研究确定了两种关键的大脑信号 —— 预测误差和预期价值 —— 作为抑郁症康复潜力的重要指标)”可知，预测误差和预期价值这两种信号用于预测抑郁症的康复情况。故选B。 D In the year 2024, a new celebrity emerged on the Internet: Moo Deng, a pygmy hippopotamus (矮河马) from Thailand. With her soft, wet skin and a life filled with play and good meals, Moo Deng charmed millions of people. Her name, which means “bouncy pork” in Thai, suits her cheerful personality. Moo Deng’s rise to fame was more than just a passing trend; it was mainly a reflection of society’s desire for happiness. David Barash, a retired psychology professor, suggests that watching animals can be a way to forget about our troubles. Moo Deng’s playful behavior, from her first teeth to her playful falls, attracted many followers on social media. This led to a big increase in the zoo’s online popularity and inspired fans to create art and new makeup styles. A well-known Thai music company, GMM, even wrote a song for her in many languages. Tony Sampson, who studies how things become popular online, calls this “emotional contagion (情绪感染).” “This means the emotion that makes us feel something, whether it’s joy or sadness, can spread quickly. While negative feelings can also spread, people often look for the emotion that lifts their spirits. Moo Deng was part of a larger group of animals that captured the Internet’s attention. However, we should treat this emotion reasonably”, he said. Sai Satardekar, a zoologist, who studies animals’ behaviour, holds the view that people are drawn to these animals because we often think animals have some human qualities, which makes them relatable. Moo Deng’s appeal comes from her behavior that seems familiar to us, even though it might not always be an exact match to her actual feelings. He adds that acknowledging the emotion that animals share with us can be helpful, and Moo Deng might be the emotional support that many of us are looking for. Moo Deng’s story shows how animals can bring joy and comfort to our lives. Her journey from a zoo in Thailand to the screens of people around the world is a heartwarming example of how the simple joy of an animal can touch our hearts and provide a moment of happiness in our busy lives. 12. What is the primary reason for Deng’s fame? A. Her unique physical appearance. B. Her story on social media. C. The public’s need for happiness. D. The zoo’s online popularity. 13. What can we know about from Sampson? A. People are easily affected by others’ emotion. B. People fail to draw the Internet’s attention. C. People like the negative emotion better. D. People should refuse “emotional contagion”. 14. What makes Deng attractive according to Satardekar? A. Her inner emotion open to humans. B. Her comfort brought to humans. C. Her needs delivered to humans. D. Her qualities similar to humans. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The ways of becoming a celebrity. B. The reasons for Deng’s popularity. C. The emotion of attracting people. D. The definition for happiness. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了讲述了矮河马Moo Deng在网络上成名的现象，并从不同角度分析了她受欢迎的原因，如反映社会对幸福的渴望、情绪感染、具有类似人类的特质等。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Moo Deng’s rise to fame was more than just a passing trend; it was mainly a reflection of society’s desire for happiness.( Moo Deng的成名不仅仅是昙花一现；它主要反映了社会对幸福的渴望)”可知，Moo Deng成名主要是因为它反映了社会对幸福的渴望，也就是公众对幸福的需求。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Tony Sampson, who studies how things become popular online, calls this “emotional contagion (情绪感染).” “This means the emotion that makes us feel something, whether it’s joy or sadness, can spread quickly.( 研究事物如何在网上流行的托尼·桑普森称这种现象为“情绪传染”。”“这意味着让我们感受到的情绪，无论是快乐还是悲伤，都可以迅速传播)”可知，我们能从桑普森那里了解到人们很容易被别人的情绪所影响。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Sai Satardekar, a zoologist, who studies animals’ behaviour, holds the view that people are drawn to these animals because we often think animals have some human qualities, which makes them relatable. Moo Deng’s appeal comes from her behavior that seems familiar to us, even though it might not always be an exact match to her actual feelings.( 研究动物行为的动物学家赛·萨塔德卡尔（Sai Satardekar）认为，人们被这些动物所吸引，是因为我们经常认为动物具有一些人类的品质，这使它们与人类产生共鸣。Moo Deng的吸引力来自于她的行为，我们似乎很熟悉，尽管它可能并不总是与她的实际感受完全相符)”可推知，在萨塔德卡尔看来，Moo Deng的魅力是她的品质与人类相似。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及最后一段“Moo Deng’s story shows how animals can bring joy and comfort to our lives. Her journey from a zoo in Thailand to the screens of people around the world is a heartwarming example of how the simple joy of an animal can touch our hearts and provide a moment of happiness in our busy lives.( Moo Deng的故事展示了动物是如何给我们的生活带来快乐和安慰的。她从泰国的一家动物园到世界各地人们的屏幕上的旅程是一个温暖人心的例子，表明动物的简单快乐如何触动我们的心，并在我们忙碌的生活中提供片刻的幸福)”可知，文章主要讲述了矮河马Moo Deng在网络上成名的现象，并从不同角度分析了她受欢迎的原因，如反映社会对幸福的渴望、情绪感染、具有类似人类的特质等，B 选项“Moo Deng受欢迎的原因”符合文意。故选B项。 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。 Life throws challenging situations on our way from time to time.

The floodwaters spread quickly, sweeping through the whole village. Debris piled up (瓦砾堆积) in front of every home, and the water washed over the roads, spreading mud (泥) and sand. The paths that were once passable were now completely blocked, and even the road to the hospital was completely submerged (淹没). The lives of the villagers were disrupted (打乱), and there were no safe roads to travel. Most of the villagers stayed indoors, waiting for the rain to stop, hoping the water would go down. However, for one father, this could not stop him from taking action. His six-month-old daughter, Ruby, had a high fever that wouldn’t go down, and she had been crying all night, growing weaker and weaker. The family didn’t have enough medicine to relieve her pain. The father watched her anxiously, filled with fear and uncertainty. He knew he had to get Ruby to the hospital as quickly as possible to get proper treatment, but the road to the hospital was completely blocked by the flood, and there were no other choices available. “Ruby, Daddy’s going to take you to the hospital. Hold on,” he said softly, knowing she couldn’t understand him yet. Her tiny face turned red from the fever, and she weakly rested in his arms. The father’s heart ached with worry, feeling helpless. There was no time to waste; Ruby’s life was more important than anything else. The father decided to walk through the water to get to the hospital. The water outside had risen to his calves (小腿肚), and the flood had covered the streets, completely submerging the nearby paths. He could only move slowly through the water. The water flowed fast, and the mud was dangerous, with every step feeling like a fight against the water’s force, but the father’s determination didn’t weaken. 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。 Carrying Ruby on his back, the father carefully made his way through the flooded streets. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, after a long and difficult journey, the father reached the hospital. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Carrying Ruby on his back, the father carefully made his way through the flooded streets. The rain poured heavily, the fierce wind almost blowing him away. With every step, the water level rose higher, until it was over his knees. The sight of the surrounding area, covered in water, may have made others feel hopeless, but he didn’t stop. He knew Ruby’s life was in danger, and he had to get her to the hospital no matter what. As time passed, the father became tired, almost losing his balance. But he held Ruby closely, with only one thought in his mind: he had to keep going. Finally, after a long and difficult journey, the father reached the hospital. When he entered the hospital with Ruby, the medical workers quickly took her and began treatment. After a while, Ruby’s fever went down. The color returned to her face, and her breathing became calmer. The father sat down in a chair in the hospital, very tired, but he felt a deep sense of relief. He knew that although the journey had been hard, he had succeeded in getting his daughter the help she needed. No matter how difficult the situation was, he would always do anything for Ruby. 【解析】 【导语】本文以一位父亲的救女经历为线索，讲述了暴雨引发洪水淹没村庄，道路阻断，父亲为救治高烧不退、日渐虚弱的六个月大女儿鲁比，决心徒步蹚过洪水前往医院的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句“父亲背着鲁比，小心翼翼地在被洪水淹没的街道上前行。”可知，第一段描写父亲背着鲁比在洪水中艰难前行，雨大风急、水位升至膝盖，他虽疲惫险些失衡，却始终紧护女儿，坚定前行。 ②由第二段首句“终于，经过一段漫长而艰难的路程，父亲抵达了医院。”可知，第二段描写父亲抵达医院后，医护人员立即救治鲁比，鲁比病情好转，父亲虽疲惫却如释重负，坚定了为女儿付出一切的决心。 2. 续写线索：背女蹚水——风雨中艰难前行——险些失衡仍坚持——抵达医院——医护救治——女儿好转——父亲释然 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①下大雨：pour heavily/rain cats and dogs ②下降，退去：go down/drop ③坐下：sit down/seat oneself 情绪类 ①疲惫：tired/worn out ②释然：sense of relief/feeling of ease 【点睛】[高分句型1] The rain poured heavily, the fierce wind almost blowing him away.（运用了独立主格结构作状语） [高分句型2] He knew that although the journey had been hard, he had succeeded in getting his daughter the help she needed.（运用了that引导宾语从句以及although引导的让步状语从句，和省略关系代词的定语从句修饰名词help） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 黔西南州顶兴高级中学高三下学期第一次英语模拟试卷 满分：150分 时间：120分钟 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. What is the probable relationship between the speakers?

B Born into a farmer’s family in Dalian, northeast China’s Liaoning Province, Dong Lina suffered from congenital (先天的) eye disease and went blind at the age of 10. Like many visually-impaired children, she finished compulsory education at a school for disabled people and began learning Tuina. In 2003, she finally obtained a job. Her life then was like a fixed route, but Dong was unwilling to take it for granted. “Teachers always told me not to give up learning new knowledge because it could give me more options in life,” she said. One day she found an anchor (节目主持人) training program for visually-impaired youth. Dong realized that this might be her big moment, and she made a life-changing phone call. After the training at the organization, Dong was recommended to a workshop at a radio station where she was the only visually-impaired person in the class. Her physical disability forced her to make an extra effort in her spare time. “My pronunciation was often not accurate, yet I could not correct it by looking into the mirror, and the teacher figured out a way that I touched his mouth to follow the way he pronounced,” said Dong. Despite all the difficulties, Dong achieved the top level in the Mandarin proficiency test. In 2015, she became the host of a radio program and in 2020, she returned to the Communication University of China to pursue a master’s degree in broadcast and television. “Life may not be perfect, but we can make up for it with our own hard work and the support of society,” said Dong. 4 Why did Dong learn Tuina? A. To have a fixed route. B. To make a living. C. To become an anchor. D. To pursue a degree. 5. How did Dong improve her pronunciation? A. By following the way directly. B. By touching her own mouth. C. By feeling the teacher’s mouth. D. By looking into the mirror. 6. What may mainly contribute to Dong’s success? A. Her long-lasting effort. B. Her physical disability. C. The compulsory education. D. The social donation. 7. Which of the following can best describe Dong? A. Determined and honest. B. Faithful and creative. C. Committed and optimistic. D. Gifted and courageous. C In a study conducted by Fralin Biomedical Research Institute scientists Pearl Chiu and Brooks Casas, they investigate how brain signals involved in reward learning might help personalize treatment for depression. A brain signal that lights up when we anticipate rewards may hold the secret to helping people overcome depression, and Virginia Tech researchers are working to unlock its potential. Professors Pearl Chiu and Brooks Casas are pioneering a personalized approach to treating depression by exploring how our brains process rewards and setbacks. Their study examines two brain signals—prediction error and expected value—that may predict whether someone with depression is likely to see their symptoms improve. Major depression affects over 21 million Americans annually, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and remains a leading cause of disability worldwide. Yet current treatment often falls short, leaving many without lasting relief. “Major depression isn’t one-size-fits-all,” said Chiu. “People with depression learn and respond to rewards and setbacks differently, often in ways that align with specific symptoms.” Using computer models, researchers studied how the brain’s reward system works in people with depression, especially those who can’t feel pleasure. By looking at dopamine (多巴胺) responses, they found unique brain patterns that might predict who will recover. Their responses reveal the brain’s capacity to learn from outcomes, Chiu said, and could form the basis for a new kind of therapy (疗法) using tailored learning processes to guide the brain’s responses to different outcomes. The study identified two key brain signals—prediction error and expected value—as essential indicators of recovery potential for depression. Expected value, which reflects the brain’s anticipation of rewards and guides decision-making, emerged as a consistent predictor of remission across treatment types. Prediction error, which highlights gaps between expected and actual outcomes to help individuals adjust their behavior, offered additional insights. Together, prediction error and expected value provided a richer understanding of how unique learning patterns influence mental health outcomes, paving the way for tailored, symptom-specific therapies. 8. What is the main purpose of the study? A. To find the cause of depression. B. To develop a new drug for depression. C. To explore personalized treatment for depression. D. To test the efficiency of current treatment for depression. 9. What is the underlined part “align” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Match. B. Differ. C. Contrast. D. Conflict. 10. What does paragraph 5 mainly talk about? A. The research process. B. The models scientists created. C. The study method and its result. D. The dopamine found in human cells. 11. What are the signals of prediction error and expected value used for? A. Measuring physical health. B. Predicting recovery from depression. C. Assessing the severity of depression. D. Identifying the symptoms of depression. D In the year 2024, a new celebrity emerged on the Internet: Moo Deng, a pygmy hippopotamus (矮河马) from Thailand. With her soft, wet skin and a life filled with play and good meals, Moo Deng charmed millions of people. Her name, which means “bouncy pork” in Thai, suits her cheerful personality. Moo Deng’s rise to fame was more than just a passing trend; it was mainly a reflection of society’s desire for happiness. David Barash, a retired psychology professor, suggests that watching animals can be a way to forget about our troubles. Moo Deng’s playful behavior, from her first teeth to her playful falls, attracted many followers on social media. This led to a big increase in the zoo’s online popularity and inspired fans to create art and new makeup styles. A well-known Thai music company, GMM, even wrote a song for her in many languages. Tony Sampson, who studies how things become popular online, calls this “emotional contagion (情绪感染).” “This means the emotion that makes us feel something, whether it’s joy or sadness, can spread quickly. While negative feelings can also spread, people often look for the emotion that lifts their spirits. Moo Deng was part of a larger group of animals that captured the Internet’s attention. However, we should treat this emotion reasonably”, he said. Sai Satardekar, a zoologist, who studies animals’ behaviour, holds the view that people are drawn to these animals because we often think animals have some human qualities, which makes them relatable. Moo Deng’s appeal comes from her behavior that seems familiar to us, even though it might not always be an exact match to her actual feelings. He adds that acknowledging the emotion that animals share with us can be helpful, and Moo Deng might be the emotional support that many of us are looking for. Moo Deng’s story shows how animals can bring joy and comfort to our lives. Her journey from a zoo in Thailand to the screens of people around the world is a heartwarming example of how the simple joy of an animal can touch our hearts and provide a moment of happiness in our busy lives. 12. What is the primary reason for Deng’s fame? A. Her unique physical appearance. B. Her story on social media. C. The public’s need for happiness. D. The zoo’s online popularity. 13. What can we know about from Sampson? A. People are easily affected by others’ emotion. B. People fail to draw the Internet’s attention. C. People like the negative emotion better. D. People should refuse “emotional contagion”. 14. What makes Deng attractive according to Satardekar? A. Her inner emotion open to humans. B. Her comfort brought to humans. C. Her needs delivered to humans. D. Her qualities similar to humans. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. The ways of becoming a celebrity. B. The reasons for Deng’s popularity. C. The emotion of attracting people. D. The definition for happiness. 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。 Life throws challenging situations on our way from time to time.

The floodwaters spread quickly, sweeping through the whole village. Debris piled up (瓦砾堆积) in front of every home, and the water washed over the roads, spreading mud (泥) and sand. The paths that were once passable were now completely blocked, and even the road to the hospital was completely submerged (淹没). The lives of the villagers were disrupted (打乱), and there were no safe roads to travel. Most of the villagers stayed indoors, waiting for the rain to stop, hoping the water would go down. However, for one father, this could not stop him from taking action. His six-month-old daughter, Ruby, had a high fever that wouldn’t go down, and she had been crying all night, growing weaker and weaker. The family didn’t have enough medicine to relieve her pain. The father watched her anxiously, filled with fear and uncertainty. He knew he had to get Ruby to the hospital as quickly as possible to get proper treatment, but the road to the hospital was completely blocked by the flood, and there were no other choices available. “Ruby, Daddy’s going to take you to the hospital. Hold on,” he said softly, knowing she couldn’t understand him yet. Her tiny face turned red from the fever, and she weakly rested in his arms. The father’s heart ached with worry, feeling helpless. There was no time to waste; Ruby’s life was more important than anything else. The father decided to walk through the water to get to the hospital. The water outside had risen to his calves (小腿肚), and the flood had covered the streets, completely submerging the nearby paths. He could only move slowly through the water. The water flowed fast, and the mud was dangerous, with every step feeling like a fight against the water’s force, but the father’s determination didn’t weaken. 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。 Carrying Ruby on his back, the father carefully made his way through the flooded streets. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, after a long and difficult journey, the father reached the hospital. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
