B William Smith, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋) — these are the day-to-day must-haves for the family. Most of their trips seem far from relaxing — cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow. Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Smith says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible. Smith mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us, everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.” However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children's schooling. Wu remembers once Smith let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time. Smith attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says. 4. How can we describe the Smiths’ trips? A. Dangerous. B. Conventional. C. Pleasant. D. Challenging. 5. What does the underlined word “eschew” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Avoid. B. Evaluate. C. Visit. D. Compare. 6. What problem does the family meet when traveling? A. They are faced with language barriers. B. They have scheduling conflicts. C. They hold different educational ideas. D. They suffer from a tight budget. 7. Which statement may Smith agree with according to the text? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Toughness is the best assistant of will. C. Man who travels far knows more. D. There is no royal road to learning. C In the digital age, the rapid development of AI, VR and AR technologies has greatly changed the way people read and appreciate literary works, making the traditional literary reading more interactive and interesting. More and more readers, especially teenagers, begin to accept and love the new digital reading methods, which have become a new trend in literary spread. One of the most popular digital reading methods is immersive reading. With the help of VR and AR devices, readers can “step into” the vivid scenes described in novels, poems and plays directly. For example, when reading Qu Yuan’s Li Sao, readers can see the beautiful scenery of the ancient Chu State and feel the poet’s strong emotions of patriotism. The 2026 Spring Festival Gala used this technology to present classic Chinese poems, which made the poems more vivid and easy to understand for the audience of all ages. Another popular trend is AI-assisted reading. AI can automatically explain difficult words, phrases and historical background knowledge in classic literary works, which helps students and new readers understand the works better and faster. Some reading apps even turn classic literary works into short animated plays or gentle songs, combining literature with music and painting. This creative form makes traditional literature more lively and attractive to young people. However, some people worry that digital reading may make people lose the habit of reading paper books, and the sense of touch and immersion brought by paper books can never be replaced by digital devices. Experts point out that the key is to balance digital reading and traditional reading. Technology is just a tool to help people fall in love with literature, and the true beauty and value of literary works themselves will never change with the form of reading. 8. What can we learn about the use of VR and AR in literary reading from the text? A. It transforms classic poems into animated plays or songs. B. It enables readers to visually experience the settings of literary works. C. It was first introduced to the public through the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. D. It is more popular among the elderly than among younger generations. 9. Why does the author mention the 2026 Spring Festival Gala in paragraph 2? A. To criticize the overuse of technology in traditional culture shows. B. To illustrate the widespread commercial application of VR devices. C. To provide a concrete example of how immersive reading works in practice. D. To compare the differences between TV shows and digital reading apps. 10. How does AI-assisted reading help readers according to the text? A. By writing new literary works for readers automatically. B. By providing explanations for difficult elements in classic works. C. By reducing the time needed for reading any books significantly. D. By discouraging the use of paper books among young students. 11. What can be inferred about the experts’ view on digital and traditional reading? A. They believe digital reading will soon make paper books disappear. B. They consider the sense of touch from paper books to be unimportant. C. They think the true value of literature lies in the reading form. D. They see technology as a helpful tool rather than a replacement. D The relationship between humans and the Amazon rainforest has not always been a harmonious one. However, recent research suggests that the native people of the Putumayo region helped to protect the rainforest, leaving it unchanged for 5,000 years. Perhaps humans coexisting with nature is possible after all. The study, published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), looked at soil samples in the Putumayo region of the Amazon in Peru to find how humans influenced the land. The researchers found that the trees still growing in the region today had been growing there for the last 5,000 years — evidence that the area has not been home to cities and farmland in that time. Traces of charcoal (木炭) found in the soil, however, indicate that people did live there; they just did so in a way that had a minimum influence on their environment. To come to these conclusions, the team dug a 0.6-0.9 meter deep column into the ground, taking samples of soil from different heights along the column. Back in the lab, samples were carbon-dated to determine their age and then sorted under a microscope to look for microscopic mineral particles, known as phytoliths (植硅体). Phytoliths are essential evidence of plants — they remained in the soil thousands of years after the plant died. So researchers can use them to tell which plants have grown in an area in the past. Over 5,000 years’ worth of samples, no species loss was detected. These findings suggest that contrary to common belief, the Amazon is not untouched by humans, but rather has been protected by them for thousands of years. The management of the rainforest by native people appears to have been vital in preserving its biodiversity and it will continue to be important in the fight to prevent it from collapse. As Nigel Pitman, a co-author on the paper, said, “Since this particular forest is still being protected by native people, I hope this study reminds us all how important it is to support their work.” 12. What did the researchers try to find in the Amazon rainforest in Peru? A. The diversity of the plants in the rainforest. B. The survival age of the trees in the rainforest. C. The evidence of humans’ influence on the rainforest. D. The nutrition of the soil samples in the rainforest. 13. The researchers came to their conclusions by . A. studying the climate of the Putumayo region B. analyzing the living habits of the native people C. collecting data from former experiments D. comparing the plants growing there long before and now 14. What can be inferred from Nigel Pitman’s words? A. We should help protect the Amazon rainforest. B. We should make good use of the Amazon rainforest. C. Native people should protect the rainforest. D. More science research should be done on the rainforest. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. 5,000 Years of Coexistence: Native People Protecting the Amazon B. A New Discovery: The Untouched Amazon Rainforest C. The Threat of Collapse: Saving the Amazon Rainforest D. Scientific Methods: Using Phytoliths to Study Ancient Soil 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。 The Art of Asking Great Questions Asking questions is a key skill for effective communication, yet many fail to master it,missing out on meaningful connections and useful insights. Fortunately, it’s a skill that can be developed with intention. ____16____ To start with, it’s important to clarify your purpose and ask the right person. Reflect on what you aim to gain — tips for exams or homework feedback — before raising a question. This makes your question more focused, leading to better responses. ____17____. For example, seeking medical advice from a friend instead of a doctor will only lead to vague or incorrect information. ____18____If a question pops up, ask it promptly while fresh; if the timing isn’t right — such as during a meeting — write it down to follow up later. Use simple, clear language, avoid difficult terms, and stay neutral to keep from influencing responses. Instead of saying “This plan is perfect, isn’t it?”, try “What’s your take on this plan?” to encourage honest feedback. Additionally, attentive listening and thoughtful follow-ups are essential. ____19____Nodding or saying brief phrases like“I see” can signal your engagement. Follow-up questions are crucial for deepening the conversation. You can add “What steps do you think we can take to overcome it?” after asking “What’s the main difficulty here?” This shift from identifying issues to exploring solutions keeps the dialogue productive. ____20____Avoid rude questions that push others away. Approach answers with curiosity rather than closed-mindedness — every question is an opportunity to expand your understanding. With these steps, you’ll turn common exchanges into meaningful connections. A. Crafting questions carefully is equally crucial. B. Too many follow-up questions may annoy others. C. Plain words make your questions easier to understand. D. Listen mindfully and focus on what the person is saying. E. Here are some practical strategies to question effectively. F. Ultimately, maintain a respectful and open-minded attitude. G. Choosing those with relevant knowledge ensures reliable answers. 第三部分语言运用(共三节，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。 One autumn morning, I spotted a pair of wild geese on our pond.

On the first day of November, I was working in the neighbourhood of the geese when I ____30____ some movement from the corner of my eye. Both geese were running towards the pond.

It was one of the best months of my life. It was an eye-opening experience that challenged some of my beliefs about how animals are used for tourism. I volunteered with an elephant research unit at a park. The volunteer work that we did would change a bit each day, but it mostly consisted of cleaning elephant camps, preparing their food, observing and taking notes of elephant behavior, picking up samples of elephant dung (粪便) for research purposes, and importing elephant data into the computer. Volunteering makes me a better person because it gets me outside of myself. It puts my focus on others. It makes me grateful for what I have. I never thought I would be rewarded for my volunteer work. As a volunteer, it gives me a chance to serve like Jesus served, which gives a deep sense of meaning to my life. That afternoon coming back from the shelter, I was driving home. I took the route that was more like a canyon drive with beautiful scenery to think and process my feelings. All of a sudden I heard a pop. I knew right away what had happened — a big flat tire! I pulled the car to the side, but this was a canyon drive with not much shoulder space, and it happened to be around a curve (弯道) where people couldn't see me. That made it dangerous. Cars were speeding up unconsciously passing me. I couldn’t get out. Within minutes, I saw a van (小型货车) stopped at a distance behind me. Perhaps the other people in his car saw my awkward situation? Later I knew the kind man’s beautiful wife with lovely children in the back. The gentleman walked out, trying offering help, and I dared to walk out of the car very carefully. It was so narrow. He moved my car a bit out of the way while I was talking to AAA (American Automobile Association)(an American organization which provides services for car owners). After many back-and-forths with AAA (Since it was rather remote, they couldn’t find my location.), they said with all the priority they gave me since I was in a dangerous place, they could send assistance in 20 to 30 minutes. 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。 The gentleman offered to look at my spare tire. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I offered to give him some cash in return for his help. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026-2麓山国际高一4月学情检测试卷 高一年级 英语试卷 总分: 150分 时量: 120分钟 第一部分：听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共 5 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 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。 例: How much is the shirt?

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍红岩古镇的概况、3小时推荐游览路线、文化体验及实用参观信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据A 3-hour Recommended Tour中的“Finally, end your tour at West Gate Square and enjoy local snacks like rice cakes.(最后，在西门广场结束你的游览，品尝年糕等当地小吃)”可知，在3小时推荐游览中，游客可以在游览结束时品尝当地食物。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Ticket prices are as follows:$20 for adults,$10 for students, and free for children under 6.There are discounts too: 15% off for groups of 15 or more; an additional 5% off for online bookings.(票价如下：成人20美元，学生10美元，6岁以下儿童免费。还有折扣：15人及以上团体可享受85折优惠；网上预订可额外享受95折优惠)”可知，40名成人属于15人及以上团体，可享受15%折扣，网上预订再额外享受5%折扣，单人票价20美元，40人原价为40×20=800美元，先打85折为800×0.85=680美元，再打95折为680×0.95=646美元。故选D项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，文章介绍了红岩古镇的游览路线、文化体验、开放时间、票价和交通方式，这些信息均为游客参观提供实用指导，由此可推断，这篇文章最有可能来自一本旅游指南。故选A项。 B William Smith, a famous Great Wall expert and conservationist, and his wife Wu Qi have traveled the globe by the back paths, providing their sons with a unique growing environment. Sun hats, backpacks and sneakers (运动鞋) — these are the day-to-day must-haves for the family. Most of their trips seem far from relaxing — cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow. Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Smith says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible. Smith mentions the trip to Moscow as an example. Instead of taking a taxi from the railway station to the hotel, they took the subway. “We crossed the city for saving money, communicated with local people, and saw they are people just like us, everywhere. We arrived at our destination feeling comfortable.” However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children's schooling. Wu remembers once Smith let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam. Things like that bother the family all the time. Smith attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. “You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,” he says. 4. How can we describe the Smiths’ trips? A. Dangerous. B. Conventional. C. Pleasant. D. Challenging. 5. What does the underlined word “eschew” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Avoid. B. Evaluate. C. Visit. D. Compare. 6. What problem does the family meet when traveling? A. They are faced with language barriers. B. They have scheduling conflicts. C. They hold different educational ideas. D. They suffer from a tight budget. 7. Which statement may Smith agree with according to the text? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Toughness is the best assistant of will. C. Man who travels far knows more. D. There is no royal road to learning. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍长城专家William Smith和妻子带儿子环球旅行的经历、旅行特点、面临的问题及他们的教育理念。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Most of their trips seem far from relaxing — cultural study in the hot and dry desert, a 53-kilometer hiking tour of New Zealand, a one-day climb to three English mountaintops and a six-day train ride from Beijing to Moscow.(他们的大多数旅行似乎一点也不轻松——在炎热干燥的沙漠里进行文化研究，在新西兰进行53公里的徒步旅行，一天内攀登三座英国山顶，以及从北京到莫斯科为期六天的火车旅行)”可知，Smith一家的旅行包含徒步、高温环境下的研究等，并不轻松，具有挑战性。故选D项。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Many assume the family must be wealthy and can afford their global travel, but they are not. Smith says they just choose to spend money on travel and eschew pricey hotels and restaurants where possible.(许多人认为这个家庭一定很富有，能负担得起他们的环球旅行，但事实并非如此。Smith说，他们只是选择把钱花在旅行上，并在可能的情况下eschew昂贵的酒店和餐厅)”可知，他们并不富有，把钱花在旅行上，因此会尽量避免昂贵的酒店和餐厅，由此猜测eschew意为“避免”，与avoid同义。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“However, their journeys, which can last weeks or months, have sometimes been inconsistent with their children's schooling. Wu remembers once Smith let their elder son ask for leave so that they could go to New York for a 45-day lecture tour. Therefore the son missed his final exam.(然而，他们可能持续数周或数月的旅行，有时与孩子们的学校教育相冲突。Wu记得有一次Smith让他们的大儿子请假，这样他们就可以去纽约进行为期45天的巡回讲座。因此，儿子错过了期末考试)”可知，这个家庭旅行时遇到的问题是旅行安排与孩子的学校教育有冲突，即时间安排冲突。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Smith attaches great importance to learning out of the classroom, saying that children might score well on school tests, but traveling outside, in distant lands with different languages, cultures, and political structures, is the real test. ‘You can only get streetwise on the street. You can only get worldly-wise when seeing the world,’ he says.(Smith非常重视课外学习，他说孩子们可能在学校考试中取得好成绩，但到遥远的地方旅行，接触不同的语言、文化和政治结构，才是真正的考验。他说：“你只有在街头才能变得精明。只有看世界，才能变得善于处世的。”)”可推断，Smith认为旅行能让人增长见识，即“走得越远，懂得越多”。故选C项。 C In the digital age, the rapid development of AI, VR and AR technologies has greatly changed the way people read and appreciate literary works, making the traditional literary reading more interactive and interesting. More and more readers, especially teenagers, begin to accept and love the new digital reading methods, which have become a new trend in literary spread. One of the most popular digital reading methods is immersive reading. With the help of VR and AR devices, readers can “step into” the vivid scenes described in novels, poems and plays directly. For example, when reading Qu Yuan’s Li Sao, readers can see the beautiful scenery of the ancient Chu State and feel the poet’s strong emotions of patriotism. The 2026 Spring Festival Gala used this technology to present classic Chinese poems, which made the poems more vivid and easy to understand for the audience of all ages. Another popular trend is AI-assisted reading. AI can automatically explain difficult words, phrases and historical background knowledge in classic literary works, which helps students and new readers understand the works better and faster. Some reading apps even turn classic literary works into short animated plays or gentle songs, combining literature with music and painting. This creative form makes traditional literature more lively and attractive to young people. However, some people worry that digital reading may make people lose the habit of reading paper books, and the sense of touch and immersion brought by paper books can never be replaced by digital devices. Experts point out that the key is to balance digital reading and traditional reading. Technology is just a tool to help people fall in love with literature, and the true beauty and value of literary works themselves will never change with the form of reading. 8. What can we learn about the use of VR and AR in literary reading from the text? A. It transforms classic poems into animated plays or songs. B. It enables readers to visually experience the settings of literary works. C. It was first introduced to the public through the 2026 Spring Festival Gala. D. It is more popular among the elderly than among younger generations. 9. Why does the author mention the 2026 Spring Festival Gala in paragraph 2? A. To criticize the overuse of technology in traditional culture shows. B. To illustrate the widespread commercial application of VR devices. C. To provide a concrete example of how immersive reading works in practice. D. To compare the differences between TV shows and digital reading apps. 10. How does AI-assisted reading help readers according to the text? A. By writing new literary works for readers automatically. B. By providing explanations for difficult elements in classic works. C. By reducing the time needed for reading any books significantly. D. By discouraging the use of paper books among young students. 11. What can be inferred about the experts’ view on digital and traditional reading? A. They believe digital reading will soon make paper books disappear. B. They consider the sense of touch from paper books to be unimportant. C. They think the true value of literature lies in the reading form. D. They see technology as a helpful tool rather than a replacement. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了数字时代下，AI、VR/AR 技术让文学阅读变得更互动有趣，沉浸式阅读与 AI 辅助阅读成为新趋势；有人担忧纸质阅读习惯消失，专家则认为应平衡两种阅读方式，技术只是传播文学的工具，作品本身的价值永恒。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“With the help of VR and AR devices, readers can “step into” the vivid scenes described in novels, poems and plays directly. For example, when reading Qu Yuan’s Li Sao, readers can see the beautiful scenery of the ancient Chu State and feel the poet’s strong emotions of patriotism. (借助虚拟现实和增强现实设备，读者可以直接“置身于”小说、诗歌和戏剧中所描述的生动场景之中。例如，在阅读屈原的《离骚》时，读者可以看到古代楚国美丽的景色，并感受到诗人强烈的爱国主义情感。)”可知，我们能了解到VR和AR 在文学阅读中的应用是它能让读者通过视觉体验到文学作品中的场景。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One of the most popular digital reading methods is immersive reading. (最受欢迎的数字阅读方式之一是沉浸式阅读。)”以及“The 2026 Spring Festival Gala used this technology to present classic Chinese poems, which made the poems more vivid and easy to understand for the audience of all ages. (2026 年春节联欢晚会就运用了这一技术来呈现经典中国诗歌，使这些诗歌对于各个年龄段的观众来说都更加生动易懂。)”可知，作者在第二段提及2026年春晚的目的是为沉浸式阅读在实际中如何应用提供具体例子。故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“AI can automatically explain difficult words, phrases and historical background knowledge in classic literary works, which helps students and new readers understand the works better and faster. (人工智能能够自动解释经典文学作品中难懂的词汇、短语和历史背景知识，这有助于学生和新读者更好地更快地理解这些作品。)”可知，AI 辅助阅读可以为经典作品中的难点内容提供解释。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Experts point out that the key is to balance digital reading and traditional reading. Technology is just a tool to help people fall in love with literature, and the true beauty and value of literary works themselves will never change with the form of reading. (专家指出，关键在于平衡数字化阅读和传统阅读。技术只是帮助人们爱上文学的工具，而文学作品本身真正的美和价值永远不会因阅读形式的变化而改变。)”可知，关于专家对数字阅读和传统阅读的看法，可推断出他们将技术视为有用的工具而非替代品。故选D项。 D The relationship between humans and the Amazon rainforest has not always been a harmonious one. However, recent research suggests that the native people of the Putumayo region helped to protect the rainforest, leaving it unchanged for 5,000 years. Perhaps humans coexisting with nature is possible after all. The study, published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), looked at soil samples in the Putumayo region of the Amazon in Peru to find how humans influenced the land. The researchers found that the trees still growing in the region today had been growing there for the last 5,000 years — evidence that the area has not been home to cities and farmland in that time. Traces of charcoal (木炭) found in the soil, however, indicate that people did live there; they just did so in a way that had a minimum influence on their environment. To come to these conclusions, the team dug a 0.6-0.9 meter deep column into the ground, taking samples of soil from different heights along the column. Back in the lab, samples were carbon-dated to determine their age and then sorted under a microscope to look for microscopic mineral particles, known as phytoliths (植硅体). Phytoliths are essential evidence of plants — they remained in the soil thousands of years after the plant died. So researchers can use them to tell which plants have grown in an area in the past. Over 5,000 years’ worth of samples, no species loss was detected. These findings suggest that contrary to common belief, the Amazon is not untouched by humans, but rather has been protected by them for thousands of years. The management of the rainforest by native people appears to have been vital in preserving its biodiversity and it will continue to be important in the fight to prevent it from collapse. As Nigel Pitman, a co-author on the paper, said, “Since this particular forest is still being protected by native people, I hope this study reminds us all how important it is to support their work.” 12. What did the researchers try to find in the Amazon rainforest in Peru? A. The diversity of the plants in the rainforest. B. The survival age of the trees in the rainforest. C. The evidence of humans’ influence on the rainforest. D. The nutrition of the soil samples in the rainforest. 13. The researchers came to their conclusions by . A. studying the climate of the Putumayo region B. analyzing the living habits of the native people C. collecting data from former experiments D. comparing the plants growing there long before and now 14. What can be inferred from Nigel Pitman’s words? A. We should help protect the Amazon rainforest. B. We should make good use of the Amazon rainforest. C. Native people should protect the rainforest. D. More science research should be done on the rainforest. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. 5,000 Years of Coexistence: Native People Protecting the Amazon B. A New Discovery: The Untouched Amazon Rainforest C. The Threat of Collapse: Saving the Amazon Rainforest D. Scientific Methods: Using Phytoliths to Study Ancient Soil 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍研究发现秘鲁普图马约地区的原住民5000年来一直保护亚马逊雨林，证明人类与自然可以和谐共存。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study, published in The Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS), looked at soil samples in the Putumayo region of the Amazon in Peru to find how humans influenced the land. (这项发表在《美国国家科学院院刊》（PNAS）上的研究，分析了秘鲁亚马逊普图马约地区的土壤样本，以找出人类对土地的影响。)”可知，研究人员试图在秘鲁的亚马逊雨林中寻找人类对雨林产生影响的证据。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To come to these conclusions, the team dug a 0.6-0.9 meter deep column into the ground, taking samples of soil from different heights along the column. Back in the lab, samples were carbon-dated to determine their age and then sorted under a microscope to look for microscopic mineral particles, known as phytoliths (植硅体). Phytoliths are essential evidence of plants — they remained in the soil thousands of years after the plant died. So researchers can use them to tell which plants have grown in an area in the past. (为了得出这些结论，研究小组在地上挖了一个0.6到0.9米深的土柱，从土柱的不同高度采集土壤样本。回到实验室后，研究人员对样本进行了碳年代测定以确定其年龄，然后在显微镜下进行分类，寻找被称为植硅体的微小矿物颗粒。植硅体是植物的重要证据——它们在植物死亡数千年后仍留在土壤中。因此，研究人员可以用它们来判断过去某个地区生长过哪些植物。)”可知，研究人员通过对比该地区很久以前和现在生长的植物得出了结论。故选D项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“As Nigel Pitman, a co-author on the paper, said, “Since this particular forest is still being protected by native people, I hope this study reminds us all how important it is to support their work.” (该论文的合著者奈杰尔·皮特曼说：“由于这片特定的森林仍在被原住民保护着，我希望这项研究能提醒我们所有人支持他们工作的重要性。”)”可推断，奈杰尔·皮特曼认为我们应该帮助保护亚马逊雨林，支持原住民的保护工作。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第一段中的“However, recent research suggests that the native people of the Putumayo region helped to protect the rainforest, leaving it unchanged for 5,000 years. Perhaps humans coexisting with nature is possible after all. (然而，最近的研究表明，普图马约地区的原住民帮助保护了雨林，使其5000年来保持不变。也许人类与自然共存终究是可能的。)”以及全文围绕原住民5000年来保护亚马逊雨林的研究展开，可知“5000年的共存：原住民保护亚马逊”最适合作为文章标题。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Art of Asking Great Questions Asking questions is a key skill for effective communication, yet many fail to master it,missing out on meaningful connections and useful insights. Fortunately, it’s a skill that can be developed with intention. ____16____ To start with, it’s important to clarify your purpose and ask the right person. Reflect on what you aim to gain — tips for exams or homework feedback — before raising a question. This makes your question more focused, leading to better responses. ____17____. For example, seeking medical advice from a friend instead of a doctor will only lead to vague or incorrect information. ____18____If a question pops up, ask it promptly while fresh; if the timing isn’t right — such as during a meeting — write it down to follow up later. Use simple, clear language, avoid difficult terms, and stay neutral to keep from influencing responses. Instead of saying “This plan is perfect, isn’t it?”, try “What’s your take on this plan?” to encourage honest feedback. Additionally, attentive listening and thoughtful follow-ups are essential. ____19____Nodding or saying brief phrases like“I see” can signal your engagement. Follow-up questions are crucial for deepening the conversation. You can add “What steps do you think we can take to overcome it?” after asking “What’s the main difficulty here?” This shift from identifying issues to exploring solutions keeps the dialogue productive. ____20____Avoid rude questions that push others away. Approach answers with curiosity rather than closed-mindedness — every question is an opportunity to expand your understanding. With these steps, you’ll turn common exchanges into meaningful connections. A. Crafting questions carefully is equally crucial. B. Too many follow-up questions may annoy others. C. Plain words make your questions easier to understand. D. Listen mindfully and focus on what the person is saying. E. Here are some practical strategies to question effectively. F. Ultimately, maintain a respectful and open-minded attitude. G. Choosing those with relevant knowledge ensures reliable answers. 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. D 20.

D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在秋天的时候在自家池塘偶遇一对大雁，出于惊喜与珍惜，便悄悄观察、慢慢靠近。相处数日，作者发现雄雁翅膀受伤，这正是它们久留的原因。雌雁始终不离不弃。11月初，大雁伤愈起飞南飞，与作者告别。这场意外的相逢，让作者深深铭记大雁间的忠诚。 【21题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：这美丽的景象让我大吃一惊，因为我之前从未在那片地方见过大雁。A. accident事故；B. surprise惊讶，惊喜；C. challenge挑战；D. fortune财富。根据后文“because I’d never seen geese there before(因为我之前从未在那里见过大雁)”可知，作者之前从未见过大雁，因此这是一个“惊喜”。故选B项。 【22题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：以为它们很快就会离开，所以我珍惜能与它们靠近的机会。A. explored探索；B. gained获得；C. deserved值得；D. valued重视，珍视。根据前文“Thinking they would soon leave(以为它们很快就会离开)”可知，作者以为这对大雁只是暂时停留，很快离开，因此特别珍惜靠近它们的机会。故选D项。 【23题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：第二天早上，那对大雁仍然是我的客人。A. guests客人；B. partners伙伴；C. pets宠物；D. friends朋友。根据前文“One autumn morning, I spotted a pair of wild geese on our pond.(在一个秋日的清晨，我看到我们的池塘里有一对野鹅)”以及空前“still”可知，这对野鹅没有离开，第二天早上依然在，栖息在了作者家的池塘上，被作者视为“客人”。故选A项。 【24题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我躲在几棵树后，透过枝叶静静观察着这对俊美的大雁。A. approached接近，靠近；B. pictured想象；C. observed观察，遵循；D. protected保护。根据前文“I hid behind some trees(我躲在了一些树后面)”以及后文“I was surprised to see they were staring at me, too!”可推知，作者躲在树后，透过树枝观察它们。故选C项。 【25题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：日子一天天过去，我在去取信的路上，都会主动问候这对大雁。A. meeting遇见；B. leading带路；C. encountering遇见；D. greeting问候，打招呼。根据前文“As days passed(随着日子一天天过去)”以及后文“They craned their necks and raised their heads(它们伸长脖子，抬起了头)”可推知，随着时间推移，作者与大雁关系缓和，不再陌生，去邮箱取信件时会跟它们打招呼，它们才会伸长脖子，抬起头以回应。故选D项。 【26题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：它们小心翼翼地伸长脖子、抬起头，不过似乎已经意识到我是它们的朋友了。A. firmly坚定地，坚固地；B. warmly热情地，温暖地；C. carefully小心地；D. proudly骄傲地。根据下文转折“but seemed to realize I was their friend”以及常识判断，野生动物对人类是具有警惕性的，大雁伸长脖子抬头时，态度应该是小心的，它们一开始对人类会有防备心理，后来才慢慢意识到作者是朋友，因此，这里“carefully”意为“小心地”，符合语境。故选C项。 【27题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：到那时，我对它们为何在池塘逗留这么久的好奇，已然转变成了担忧。A. concern担心；B. sympathy同情；C. comfort安慰；D. pleasure愉快。根据前文“Thinking they would soon leave(以为它们很快就会离开)”可知，作者原本认为它们只是短暂停留，而这里“why they were staying so long at the pond(他们为什么会在池塘边待那么久呢)”讲到它们停留的时间挺长的，这应是有一定的原因的，而这个原因让作者开始担忧。故选A项。 【28题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：几天前，当它们正在草地上觅食时，我发现了它们逗留于此的缘由：雄雁的左翅膀受了伤，而它忠诚的伴侣不愿抛下它独自离开。A. journey旅程；B. visit访问，逗留；C. migration移民；D. adventure冒险。根据后文“the male had a damaged left wing and his faithful mate wouldn’t leave him behind(这只雄鸟的左翅膀受损了，而它那忠实的伴侣则不会抛弃它)”可知，雄鸟的左翅膀受伤了，这是它们在这里停留在此的原因。“visit”有“到访，停留”含义，符合语境。故选B项。 【29题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：他解释说，受伤的翅膀会自行愈合，他建议顺其自然，让身体自行恢复。A. folded折叠的；B. weak虚弱的；C. broken损坏的；D. aching疼痛的。此处呼应前文的“a damaged left wing(受损的左翅膀)”，“broken”与“damaged”同义表达。故选C项。 【30题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：十一月一日那天，我正在大雁栖息的附近忙活，眼角余光忽然瞥见有动静。A. held抓住，托住；B. caught接住，抓捕，瞥见；C. focused集中；D. judged判断。根据后文“some movement from the corner of my eye(从眼角余光……些许动静)”可推知，这里指作者余光看到大雁有动作，即“瞥见动静”。故选B项。 【31题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：它们的翅膀疯狂地拍打着，拼命地想要起飞。A. waving挥舞；B. swinging摇摆；C. shaking摇动，使震惊；D. beating敲打，拍打。根据主语“Their wings”、空后“struggling for take-off”以及常识可知，大雁起飞时会拍打翅膀。“beating”有“拍打”含义，是鸟类起飞的核心动作。故选D项。 【32题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：然后它们就从我的视线中消失了。A. reach可到达的距离，（权力或能力）能及的范围；B. sight视力，视野，看见；C. control控制；D. range范围。根据前文“Gradually they flew over the pond and circled back towards me as if to say goodbye.(渐渐地，它们飞过池塘，然后又朝我盘旋着飞回来，仿佛是在向我道别)”可知，大雁飞走了，消失在作者的视线中。“out of one’s sight”意为“看不见，离开某人的视线”。故选B项。 【33题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这些鸟儿一定是察觉到了冬天即将来临。A. concluded断定；B. indicated表明；C. sensed感觉到，觉察到；D. assumed认为。根据前文“The season’s first snowflakes fell the very next day.(第二天，这个季节的第一场雪花就飘落下来了)”可知，大雁离开后，第二天就下雪了，结合常识可推知，大雁是通过本能感知到冬天将至。故选C项。 【34题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：在它们意外造访我家池塘的这段时间里，我喜欢上了这对大雁。A. unexpected出乎意料的；B. casual随意的；C. annual年度的；D. regular规律的。根据前文“because I’d never seen geese there before(因为我之前从未在那里见过野生大雁)”可推知，作者应是之前从未见过大雁停留在自家池塘，因此，它们的逗留是出乎意料的。故选A项。 【35题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我永远不会忘记它们对彼此的那份忠贞不渝。A. generosity慷慨；B. promise诺言；C. treat款待；D. devotion奉献。结合语境可知，这里的“each other”指代“大雁彼此”，同时根据前文“the male had a damaged left wing and his faithful mate wouldn’t leave him behind(这只雄鸟的左翼受损了，而它那忠实的伴侣则不会抛弃它)”可推知，作者这里感慨雌雁对受伤雄雁不离不弃，这是忠诚与挚爱。故选D项。 第二节(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Covering an area of around 6 million square kilometres, the Amazon rainforest is the ____36____ (large) rainforest in the world.

When 42. to build 43. are broken 44. themselves 45. an 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍亚马逊雨林土壤贫瘠的原因及植物生长状况。 【36题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：亚马逊雨林占地约600万平方公里，是世界上最大的雨林。根据空前的定冠词the以及范围in the world可知，亚马逊雨林是世界上最大的雨林，所以此处应用形容词large的最高级形式largest。故填largest。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：它是各种植物生命的家园，然而，它的土壤营养出奇地贫瘠。根据空前的a great以及空后的of可知，此处应用名词variety，构成固定短语a great variety of，表示“各种各样的”。故填variety。 【38题详解】 考查副词。句意：它是各种植物生命的家园，然而，它的土壤营养出奇地贫瘠。空处修饰空后的形容词poor，此处应用副词surprisingly作状语，表示“惊人地，令人惊讶地”。故填surprisingly。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：如果给一位科学家看一份列出该土壤营养成分的报告，他或她可能会认为只有沙漠植物才能在其中生存！此处应用非谓语动词作后置定语，修饰名词report，且report与list之间是主动关系，所以应用现在分词形式listing。故填listing。 【40题详解】 考查介词。句意：一方面，雨季对土壤有影响。固定短语have an impact on，表示“对……有影响”，空处应用介词on。故填on。 【41题详解】 考查连词。句意：当水退去时，它会带走土壤中的养分。此处引导时间状语从句，表示“当……时候”，应用连词when，位于句首，首字母大写。故填When。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：另一方面，由于亚马逊的炎热气候，土壤很难积累足够的养分。此处应用动词不定式作真正的主语，it作形式主语，构成固定句型it is difficult for sb./sth. to do sth.，表示“对某人/某物来说做某事是困难的”。故填to build。 【43题详解】 考查时态和语态。句意：死去的植物和动物分解得更快。此处为句子的谓语动词，且主语Dead plants and animals与break down之间是被动关系，所以应用被动语态，句子陈述的是客观事实，应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是复数，be动词用are。故填are broken。 【44题详解】 考查反身代词。句意：结果，森林的大部分养分都锁在植物本身中，从而使它们能够以一种难以置信的速度生长。此处指代plants，作同位语，应用反身代词themselves来强调主语本身。故填themselves。 【45题详解】 考查冠词。句意：结果，森林的大部分养分都锁在植物本身中，从而使它们能够以一种难以置信的速度生长。根据空后的unbelievable speed可知，此处应用不定冠词修饰名词speed，表示“一种难以置信的速度”，unbelievable的发音以元音音素开头，应用an。故填an。 第三节课文默写填空(共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分) 46.

Let a little song ________________ the ear, or a great book to the heart, and we discover a new world, a world of dreams and magic. （根据句意填空） 【答案】appeal to 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语。句意：让一首小曲打动耳朵，让一本好书打动心灵，我们就会发现一个新的世界，一个充满梦想和魔法的世界。根据下文“or a great book to the heart, and we discover a new world, a world of dreams and magic.( 让一本好书打动心灵，我们就会发现一个新的世界，一个充满梦想和魔法的世界)”可推理出空白处应填表示“有吸引力”含义的动词短语，let sb do sth“让某人做某事”。故填appeal to。 49. The Amazon rainforest ________ ________ ________ the planet by fixing carbon and producing over 20 per cent of all the Earth’s oxygen.(根据句意完成句子) 【答案】 ①. breathes ②. life ③. into 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语、时态、主谓一致。句意：亚马逊雨林通过固定碳和生产超过20%的地球氧气，为地球注入活力。根据the planet by fixing carbon and producing over 20 per cent of all the Earth’s oxygen可知，空格处应表达“注入活力”，可用固定短语breathe life into。本句描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语The Amazon rainforest为第三人称单数，谓语也用第三人称单数。故填①breathes②life③into。 50. No doubt drawing on his own experiences, Cao Xueqin gives a detailed description of __________.（根据句意填空） 【答案】what life was like at that time 【解析】 【详解】考查宾语从句。句意：毫无疑问，曹雪芹借鉴了自己的经历，详细描述了当时的生活是怎样的。根据句意及上文“gives a detailed description of”可知，此处应用宾语从句，表示“当时的生活是怎样的”，根据句意，从句陈述过去的情况，应用一般过去时,“生活是怎样的”应用连接代词what引导从句what life was like，what在从句中作介词like的宾语，“当时”用at that time。故填what life was like at that time。 第四部分写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 51. 假如你是学生李华，你的英国朋友Tom对中国文学作品很感兴趣，希望你给他推荐其中的一部。请你给Tom回信，内容包括： (1)简要介绍一部文学作品； (2)说明推荐的理由。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Tom, _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Tom, Overjoyed to receive your letter where you mention that you are an enthusiast of China’s four great classics, I am writing to recommend A Dream of Red Mansions to you.

It was an eye-opening experience that challenged some of my beliefs about how animals are used for tourism. I volunteered with an elephant research unit at a park. The volunteer work that we did would change a bit each day, but it mostly consisted of cleaning elephant camps, preparing their food, observing and taking notes of elephant behavior, picking up samples of elephant dung (粪便) for research purposes, and importing elephant data into the computer. Volunteering makes me a better person because it gets me outside of myself. It puts my focus on others. It makes me grateful for what I have. I never thought I would be rewarded for my volunteer work. As a volunteer, it gives me a chance to serve like Jesus served, which gives a deep sense of meaning to my life. That afternoon coming back from the shelter, I was driving home. I took the route that was more like a canyon drive with beautiful scenery to think and process my feelings. All of a sudden I heard a pop. I knew right away what had happened — a big flat tire! I pulled the car to the side, but this was a canyon drive with not much shoulder space, and it happened to be around a curve (弯道) where people couldn't see me. That made it dangerous. Cars were speeding up unconsciously passing me. I couldn’t get out. Within minutes, I saw a van (小型货车) stopped at a distance behind me. Perhaps the other people in his car saw my awkward situation? Later I knew the kind man’s beautiful wife with lovely children in the back. The gentleman walked out, trying offering help, and I dared to walk out of the car very carefully. It was so narrow. He moved my car a bit out of the way while I was talking to AAA (American Automobile Association)(an American organization which provides services for car owners). After many back-and-forths with AAA (Since it was rather remote, they couldn’t find my location.), they said with all the priority they gave me since I was in a dangerous place, they could send assistance in 20 to 30 minutes. 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。 The gentleman offered to look at my spare tire. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I offered to give him some cash in return for his help. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The gentleman offered to look at my spare tire. He said that maybe he could help me change my tire before AAA’s assistance arrived. Having carefully examined my tire, he went back to his trunk, carried a toolbox, and then skillfully changed the broken tire in the dangerous location with cars passing by so fast. It wasn’t long before the tire was replaced — even before AAA arrived. It astonished me to find that a stranger would stop and help me like this. I expressed my thanks, but he just smiled. I offered to give him some cash in return for his help. Again, he smiled. Refusing my proposal, he said that anyone seeing the situation would give me a hand. Touched and grateful, I thought how lucky I was to be the person receiving such generosity on a hot, dry afternoon. While working on my tire, he learned that I had just completed one month of voluntary work, which earned admiration from him. As we said goodbye, he encouraged me to persist in my voluntary work. Like a torch passed from hand to hand, I promised him that I would pass the kindness to more people. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了作者在2017年作为志愿者与大象相处一个月后，在开车回家途中轮胎爆胎，一位好心人停车帮助作者换轮胎，作者想用现金回报他却被拒绝的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那位先生主动提出要看看我的备用轮胎。”可知，第一段可描写那位先生主动提出帮作者换轮胎，并很快换好了轮胎，作者对此表示感谢。 ②由第二段首句内容“我提出给他一些现金作为回报。”可知，第二段可描写作者想用现金回报那位先生，但被他拒绝了，他鼓励作者坚持做志愿者工作，作者承诺会将这份善意传递下去。 2.续写线索：主动提出看备用轮胎——帮作者换轮胎——换好轮胎——作者表示感谢——提出给现金回报——被拒绝——得知作者做志愿者工作——鼓励作者坚持——作者承诺传递善意 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①检查：examine/check/inspect ②回去：go back/return/head back ③拒绝：refuse/decline/reject 情绪类 ①感动的：touched/moved/affected ②感激的：grateful/thankful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】Touched and grateful, I thought how lucky I was to be the person receiving such generosity on a hot, dry afternoon.
