It often takes weeks, months, or even longer to adjust to new experiences. This is true for a significant milestone that so many students fear: the beginning of high school. When I started high school, it felt like my entire world had turned upside down. Since I came from a small middle school, the leap to a larger all-girls school was stressful. I worried about fitting in this new environment. To make matters even more daunting, my best friend chose a different school, leaving me to brave this new chapter (篇章) on my own. Luckily, our school worked hard to ensure freshmen felt comfortable during their first year of high school. On the very first day, we took part in Tiger Camp, a camp designed to ease us into high school life. We played team-building games, met our small group leaders, and got to know our classmates better. By the end of the camp, I already felt a sense of belonging. Once the school year started, one of the first major events I attended was the Club Carnival, which introduced us high school freshmen to a wide variety of extracurricular activities here. I joined the Friendly Fashion Club and a book club, both of which gave me a chance to meet like-minded students. After I adapted (适应) to the new school, there were still more challenges waiting for me. The workload was heavy, and I quickly realized that keeping up with the numerous subjects and constant assignments would be challenging: Not only did the subjects become more difficult, but the expectations were higher, and the exams seemed much harder. However, as time went on, I began to develop better time management skills and learned how to deal with my studies better. With time, I learned to accept the challenges, knowing that every difficulty was an opportunity to get better. As I discovered, even the worst storms pass, and just as clouds give way to blue skies, my fears eventually disappeared. 24. What does “daunting” underlined in paragraph 2 mean? A. Confusing. B. Surprising. C. Frightening. D. Encouraging. 25. How did the events held by the school mainly help the writer? A. By providing academic support. B. By teaching her study methods. C. By introducing her to her teachers. D. By involving her in community. 26. Paragraph 5 mainly about the author’s ________. A. fearful heart B. easy adaptation C. peer pressure D. academic stress 27. What can be concluded from the last paragraph? A. The writer found high school painful. B. The writer achieved personal growth. C. The writer considered difficulties as blocks. D. The writer found fears stayed despite efforts. C Humans spend approximately one-third of their lives sleeping, which means that by the time you reach 15 years old, you will have slept for about 5 years! However, the question remains: why do we do it? Sleep has long been a puzzle for people, leading scientists to explore its mysteries. They have found that during sleep, our brains and bodies do not simply shut down; instead, complex processes unfold. What causes sleepiness? It’s caused by our biological clock releasing a special chemical signal at the same time daily, signaling it’s time to wind down. The feeling of heaviness comes from the buildup of old nerve messenger chemicals. When the message gets too much, the brain senses that it’s time to sleep. During sleep, the body breaks down and clears away these old messengers, preparing for a fresh start. As you slip into sleep, your heart and breathing slow down, and your brain ignores the most sounds and surroundings around you. Despite appearances, your brain remains active during sleep, performing essential tasks. Throughout the night, you cycle through light, deep, and REM (rapid eye movement) sleep stages every 90 minutes. Early on, slow-wave sleep is the primary stage, aiding in brain cleaning, while towards morning, REM sleep increases, leading to vivid dreams. During sleep, your body repairs and grows, creating new skin, muscle, and other tissues with released chemicals. It’s also a time for hormone (荷尔蒙) production, aiding growth, and boosting the immune (免疫) system to fight infections. Scientists still have many questions about sleep, such as why some people need more sleep than others and how certain animals can function with less sleep. They aim to find ways to improve sleep quality. However, one thing is clear: getting enough sleep is vital for health and intelligence. Think of sleep as a free magic potion that strengthens you, aids growth, boosts immunity, and enhances intelligence, happiness, and creativity. Simply lie down and rest to enjoy these benefits. 28. What inference can be drawn from scientists’ findings about sleep? A. Sleep serves no purpose. B. Sleep has fundamental processes. C. Sleep involves complex processes. D. Sleep has minimal impact on brain function. 29. What is the primary function of the body’s “biological clock”? A. Determining the best time for sleep. B. Controlling chemicals within the body. C. Managing eating and digestion patterns. D. Regulating daytime and nighttime activities. 30. What is the main focus of the third paragraph? A. Describing the different stages and functions of sleep. B. Discussing the benefits of daytime activities for overall health. C. Exploring the effects of inadequate sleep on the body and mind. D. Analyzing the impact of stress on the immune system during sleep. 31. Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage? A. Narrative of personal sleep experiences. B. Comparison of human and animal sleep patterns. C. Imaginary stories illustrating the advantages of sleep. D. Explanation of sleep importance, with body processes described. D First impressions can be harsh. One mistake, and you might feel like you’ll forever be seen as an idiot (笨蛋) in someone’s eyes. However, I believe reality is kinder than that. Making a first impression is like trying to keep a door open with your foot. Many encounters with strangers are brief and may never happen again. Sometimes that can be a blessing: If the person you meet doesn’t care to remember you, you’ll quickly fade into the crowd of strangers in their mind, avoiding any negative or lasting impression. Other times, it can be disappointing — imagine striking up a conversation with someone interesting only to part ways before exchanging contact information. To avoid being forgotten, you need to do something memorable — but not something foolish. Make an impression by asking an insightful question or making someone laugh. This means taking risks and avoiding bland (乏味的) small talk; if that’s all you offer, you’ll likely be pushed to the back of their memory, unlikely to be remembered again. But what if you messed up your first impression? And one day you see them looking at you, recalling the time you embarrassed yourself, and they’re walking toward you thinking, “I know you from somewhere...” In that case, your second impression needs to be better. In my 19 years impressions — some not so great — I’ve found that people will give you a second chance if you give them something to care about. Just because you messed up the first time doesn’t mean you should withdraw and stop being interesting. If anything, you should try harder: Listen well, ask relevant questions, smile often, tell a joke, and share what you care about. None of this is a guaranteed “How to Make People Like You” guide, by the way. I’m not even sure if any of this works. But people seem to like talking to me, so maybe some of it does work. Anyway, if this is your first impression of me, I hope it’s been a good one. 32. What does paragraph 2 focus on about first impressions? A. They are brief and temporary. B. They are casual and interesting. C. They are important and lasting. D. They are negative and dynamic. 33. How can you make a memorable first impression, according to the author? A. By engaging in small talk. B. By avoiding risky behavior. C. By demonstrating insight or humor. D. By sharing your personal experiences. 34. What tone does the author take when discussing the effectiveness of his advice? A. Playful. B. Uncertain. C. Serious. D. Convincing. 35. What can be the best title for the passage? A. Making a Good First Impression B. The True Art of First Impression C. Why Second Impression More D. The Lasting Impact of First Impression 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。 When we are faced with a crisis, or if we have an important decision to make, many of us fall into the trap of over-thinking. We may keep thinking about something constantly and too long. 36 How can we stop ourselves from over-thinking? Doing something to distract yourself is a good idea. You can find working with your hands is especially good. 37 Your brain simply doesn’t have the resources to split itself into a third activity, for example over-thinking. 38 Studies have shown that when someone views something in excitement and anxiety, the brain is forced to become stuck in the present because all of your senses are completely engaged. You do not have time to focus on something different, which can cause over-thinking. Constant wishing, hoping and praying do not give you any relief. They just keep you stuck in one place. But taking the smallest step off the crisis really matters. It will set things in motion, making you like a snowball. 39 The traps are things that cause your natural ability to react without you realizing that there is a connection between the two. Thus, avoiding relevant traps is also a good idea. 40 For example, if one of your colleagues is so negative that she always drags you down, stop hanging out with her by having lunch alone at a nearby restaurant. A. This mindset tends to ruin our day. B. Put simply, out of sight, out of mind. C. Just as a saying goes, once bitten, twice shy. D. You are really getting your brain working for you. E. Other activities are the ones that arouse your curiosity. F. It engages your movement skills and thinking process. C. Thus, you will gradually move yourself out of the feeling. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I had always loved hip-hop dancing, so when senior year began, I couldn’t wait for what I thought would be another exciting hip-hop class.

The mountain path was stony and uneven with lots of sudden turns, testing our 56 (strong) and willpower at every step. Before dusk, we arrived at Lage, a reception station 57 (consist) of a few wooden houses. I could see the thick forest just steps away from our house, 58 a white waterfall hung in the middle of the forest. At midnight, it was 59 freezing cold that I was awakened several times. Over the next few days, we travelled through the jungle, 60 (follow) a cliff-cut path and climbed endless hillsides. Though 61 (push) to our physical and mental limits, we finally reached our destination. Motuo, located in the southern foothills of the Himalayas, is positioned deep within the Yarlung Tsangpo Grand Canyon, the world’s 62 (deep) canyon. Water vapor (水蒸气), formed from the Indian Ocean and Bay of Bengal, floated around the high peaks. Surrounded by clouds and mist, we found 63 (we) in a dreamlike fairyland of towering mountains and deep valleys. Numerous birds sang in the forest while sunshine poured through the mist and woods. Large white lilies blossomed in vast fields. I used to wonder why Motuo keeps drawing groups of returning tourists.

Leo was a dreamer with a passion for art. He spent most of his days painting the landscapes around him, capturing the beauty of nature in his drawings. However, Leo was shy and often hesitated to share his work with others. He feared criticism and doubted his talent. One day, the town announced an art competition, inviting artists of all ages to submit their work. The winner would have their artwork displayed in the town hall and receive a scholarship for art classes. The announcement ignited (点燃) Leo’s interest. This could be his chance to show his art to the world! Despite Leo’s excitement, his fear returned. “What if I’m not good enough?” he thought. For days, he struggled with his doubts, but deep down, he knew he had to try. Encouraged by his mother, who always believed in his talent, he decided to enter the competition. Leo spent every free moment working on his piece. He chose to paint the impressive sunset over the hills, the colors reflecting the beauty he admired in nature. As he painted, he poured his heart into the canvas (画布),feeling a sense of freedom and joy. However, as the deadline approached, his insecurities returned. “What if people laugh at my work?” he thought carefully. On the day of submission, Leo hesitated at the door of the gallery, holding his painting tightly. He took a deep breath and reminded himself of his mother’s words: “Art is about expressing yourself, not about pleasing others.” Gathering his courage, he stepped inside and handed over his painting. The following week, the town gathered for the competition’s unveiling (揭幕). Leo felt a mix of excitement and fear as he watched other artists present their work. The gallery was crowded with people, and he couldn’t help but admire the creativity around him. 注意： 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。 Finally, it was time for the winners to be announced. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In the following months, Leo began to attend more local art shows. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年春季学期高一年级3月综合训练·英语 参考答案、提示及评分细则 听力部分录音稿 (Text 1) M: Okay, so we’ll have chicken on Monday, and vegetable noodles on Tuesday.

(1) Those were delicious, like something from a proper Chinese restaurant! (Text 2) M: I’m reading about the first moon landing in 1969. It changed space exploration forever. (2) W: Indeed, it was an important achievement for humanity. M: And it showed the power of science and determination. (Text 3) W: Are you free this Saturday? There’s an art show in town that I’d love to see. M: Sorry, I’ll be in the library all weekend, working on my project. Maybe next Friday? W: I’m visiting my grandmother then.

The photographer they booked was a real artist. And the whole day was just magical, like something out of a fairy tale (童话). My sister and her husband were so happy. (4) (Text 5) W: I think we’re pretty lucky here. At our last school, the restaurant food was horrible and really expensive! M: Yeah. But I just wish there were a wide variety of dishes. I’m tired of eating the same meals, week in, week out. (5) (Text 6) W: This is by far the best apartment we’ve seen. (6) M: You’re right. It’s a good size, the price is right, and it’s in the perfect location. But, what about Daisy? These types of buildings often have a no pets’ rule. I’d rather live somewhere else than leave her behind. (6) W: Well, of course. Do you have the seller’s phone number? (7) M: Yes, (7) it’s somewhere in the email she sent me. W: Well, find it, and we’ll ask her right now. (7) There’s no time to lose! If we want this place, we need to put in an offer quickly. (Text 7) M: Hi, are you still at the shops? (8) W: Yes, I’m currently in the fruit and vegetable section. (8) Why? Do you need something else for tonight’s dinner? M: No. Oscar has just remembered that he has a school art project.

M: Black paint, a newspaper, some balloons, and some glue. W: Alright. I’ll add them to the list. But I’m not helping him make it! M: No, me neither. I’ve told him he needs to start taking more responsibility for his own homework. (9) W: Definitely! (Text 8) W: Are you here for the West Side Story tryouts too? (11) M: That’s right.

What about you? W: I’d be happy with any of the parts, other than Anita. I think that would involve far too much dancing for me! I love performing, particularly singing. (12) But I’ve got two left feet! M: You see, I’m the opposite. (12) My voice probably isn’t strong enough for a theater show like this, (11) (12) but I’m hoping my dancing will see me through! (Text 9) M: So, what are we doing for you today? (13) W: Just tidy it up. I don’t want to lose too much of the length. (13) I’ve got a job interview next week, so I need to look smart.

M: Oh, wow! Is that similar to what you’re doing now? W: Yeah, I’ve been working in social media for the past few years. Before that, I was working in sales. (14) (16) M: Sales? That always seems like an exciting career W: Yeah, I got a sales job straight out of school. My high school careers advisor suggested it to me probably because I was such a chatty and confident kid! (15) And it was fun. But I was never ambitious or competitive enough to really make it to the top. M: So, you retrained? W: Yes, and I haven’t regretted it for a moment. This job still allows me to use my people skills, and I love that Unlike sales, it really allows me to use my creativity. (16) (Text 10) Welcome parents, students, and fellow teachers. It’s so great to see so many of you here tonight to learn about our school’s new band exchange program! For those who don’t know me, I’m Rojas, the head of the school language department, teaching Spanish and French. As this is a musical exchange, I’m running the program alongside the school’s Head of Music, Mrs. Carson. It has long been my ambition to start an international exchange program. (17) As the son of a Venezuelan mother and an American father, (18) I was educated in international schools all over the world. While moving around so much wasn’t always easy, my international school experience really made me who I am today. It introduced me to friends from all around the world and opened my eyes to so many different cultures. (19) Now, I want to give that same gift to our students. Students from both schools will almost certainly improve their playing and their Chinese or English language skills. But my real hope is that they will come away with a deeper awareness and respect for the way others live. (20) Though our lifestyles may be very different, it’s always possible to find common ground and friendship. 参考答案 1～5 BACAB 6～10 BCCBA 11～15 BBCCB 16～20 AACAC 21. B 22. D 23. A 24. C 25. D 26. D 27.

A year ago, I signed up for our school’s English Debate Club. At first, I lacked confidence. Thankfully, my teammates were incredibly supportive—they encouraged me to look for debate resources online and break down different perspectives on each topic. After months of consistent practice, I slowly grew more confident, and I could finally express my ideas clearly during debates. I’ve gained two important takeaways from the experience. First, learning English through real-life scenarios like debates helps you master English much faster. Second, learning English in a group means you can get timely help when you’re stuck. I hope my story can give you some useful inspiration, and I wish you great fun in your English learning! Thank you! 读后续写： One possible version: Finally, it was time for the winners to be announced. Leo’s heart raced. When the first-place winner was called, it wasn’t him. A wave of disappointment washed over him. But then, to his surprise, he heard his name for the second-place award. He couldn’t believe it! Applause erupted around him, and he felt a warmth in his chest. Leo realized that this experience was about more than just winning. It was about overcoming his fears and sharing his passion with others. The recognition he received from the community boosted his confidence, igniting a fire within him to continue pursuing his art. In the following months, Leo began to attend more local art shows. He learned new techniques, met fellow artists, and grew more comfortable expressing himself. With each piece he created, he got rid of more of his self-doubt and embraced his creativity. Through this journey, Leo discovered that growth often comes from facing challenges and stepping out of one’s comfort zone. It taught him the value of perseverance and the importance of believing in oneself. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
