And the Inca leaders sometimes needed vacations! That’s why the Inca built Machu Picchu in what’s now Peru. All that’s left today are ruins, but about 500 years ago, it was a bustling royal residence. Peek into the past to discover the secrets of this awesome spot. ROYAL RELAXATION The royal family lived mostly in the mountainous capital city, Cusco. But during the winter, they could move down to the warmer Machu Picchu. Emperor Pachacuti Inc a Yupanqui likely ordered construction of it around 1450. There, the royals could feast and entertain guests. The other 750 residents served the rulers and maintained the city. PERFECT FIT Earthquakes are common in Peru, so Inca builders designed Machu Picchu to resist these shakes. They cut the stones to fit together, and they didn’t use any material, like cement, to bind them. This way, when the ground shook, the stones could bounce around and then settle back into place. CODED LANGUAGE The Inca didn’t have a written language and instead used knotted cords called quipu (KEE-poo) to send messages and keep records. Experts think the style of the knot and the color of the string contained information. Researchers are now using computers to try to untangle these long-lost codes. 1. Why did the Inca Empire build Machu Picchu? A. For pleasure of more residents. B. For the recreation of the leaders. C. For relocating the capital city. D. For appealing to more vacationers. 2. What did Inca builders do to resist the shakes? A. They made the stones fit together. B. They used cement to bind them. C. They made the stones bounce around. D. They settled the stones back into place. 3. How did the Inca share important information? A. By telling others face to face. B. By writing it down on large stones. C. By using their own unique language. D. By coloring some materials picked. B In the heart of the Kanien’keha Nation (卡尼恩克哈部族) in Canada, McComber, a native language teacher reflected on a question raised by Maori (毛利) language advocate Sir Karetu: what was his dream for the future of his language? Kanien’keha, the Mohawk language, is endangered, and for decades, McComber has worked hard to operate a native language school. At the turn of the century, as it encountered more barriers, McComber looked around the world for help and inspiration, and Karetu was the answer. “Don’t wait for money or approval; just do the work,” Karetu told him. It’s the same message Karetu carried with him decades ago, when te reo Maori, the Maori language, was also on the line. In the early 1970s, young Maori advocates in New Zealand marched to the government, demanding Maori be taught in all public schools. In 1982, Dame Iritana Tawhiwhirangi established Kohanga Reo, an engaging language program where Maori was the only language taught, spoken and used both in the classroom and at home, and the courses focused on their history and culture. “Grandparents became teachers,” she says. “The difference-maker was that the Kohanga Reo was entirely community-led. Families raised the money to rent classroom spaces, and volunteers planned and taught classes.” Translated in English as “language nest”, the Kohanga Reo model quickly became an important cultural export and inspired other minority communities worldwide. “Our parents ruled,” a student of McComber’s nest school says, “They wanted to teach us the beauty of our language, our culture, and who we are. And it has given me the confidence to speak and read with ease in both English and Kanien’keha.” The model helped communities view the world through their ancestors’ eyes, ensuring the survival of their way of life. “It’s not just about language,” McComber can now answer that question. “It’s everything.” 4. Why did McComber turn to Karetu for help? A. Karetu also spoke Kanien’keha. B. Karetu once faced a similar crisis. C. He needed his financial support. D. He desired his tips on language learning. 5. What contributed to the success of Kohanga Reo? A. Expansion of public schools. B. Flexibility of the courses. C. Rule of the students’ parents. D. Support from the community. 6. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The impact of the Kohanga Reo model. B. The importance of parents’ involvement. C. The procedure for building the nest school. D. The case of a student finding his real identity. 7. By saying “It’s everything”, McComber suggests ______. A. guaranteeing the survival of their own schools B. keeping their culture for future generations C. purifying their unique minority language D. practicing the tradition of their ancestors C As more and more species near extinction, scientists have been collecting samples from animals, plants and other creatures and storing them in biobanks across the globe. But climate change, environmental disasters and wars threaten these modern Noah’s arks. Now, a team of researchers is brainstorming an out-of-this-world solution: building one of these vaults (库) on the moon. A biobank in a permanently shadowed region at the moon’s south pole could be far more stable than those on Earth. This part of the moon usually remains around -196° Celsius, perfect for storing most animal cells long-term, marine biologist Mary Hagedorn and colleagues report in BioScience. Hagedorn and colleagues drew inspiration from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault in Norway which takes advantage of below-zero Arctic temperatures to preserve millions of seeds from around the world. In 2017, melting (融化) frozen soil threatened to flood the vault, highlighting the need for a backup plan. A different team has proposed building a lunar ark in lava (熔岩) tubes that run beneath the moon’s surface. But that design requires a solar-powered cooling system; any loss of power and the samples would be destroyed. In the moon’s forever-frozen shadowed regions, a lunar vault wouldn’t need energy or constant human maintenance, Hagedorn’s team says. Given the shadowy south pole’s low temperatures, Hagedorn says, a vault there could store “one of the most powerful cells that we have today” — fibroblasts. Scientists can transform these animal cells into stem cells, “and then those stem cells can be used for cloning,” she says. The cells could be valuable for regenerating populations of threatened or extinct species and for building ecosystems in future human settlements on the moon or Mars. The proposal has its share of barriers. For instance, the moon’s permanently dark regions aren’t free from temperature swings, says lunar scientist Benjamin Greenhagen of the Johns Hopkins University. “They are still cold but perhaps not always cold enough for this project without some level of temperature management.” 8. Why is the moon an ideal place for the biobank? A. It’s not affected by wars. B. It’s not environmentally polluted. C. It has proper temperatures. D. It has rich resources for research. 9. What led to Hagedorn’s proposal of a lunar biobank? A. The solar-powered cooling system. B. The lava tubes on the moon’s surface. C. The problem facing the Norway Vault. D. The discovery of ice on the lunar pole. 10. What can scientists use fibroblasts to do? A. Form stem cells for cloning. B. Explore moon soil conditions. C. Help land humans on the moon. D. Improve the eco-system of the earth. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Lunar Exploration: The Next Frontier for Cloning B. Relieving Climate Change: The Moon Biobank Project C. The Moon as a Backup: A New Solution for Seed Storage D. Building Biobanks on the Moon: A Proposal to Save Biodiversity D Without ready access to a time machine, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have built an AI-powered chatbot that simulates (模拟) a user’s older self and dishes out observations and wisdom. It has the potential to significantly impact how people make decisions today with their future wellbeing in mind. To interact with the chatbot, users are first asked to answer a series of questions about themselves, their friends and family, the past experiences that shaped them, and the ideal life they envision for the future. They then upload a portrait image, which the program digitally ages to produce a likeness of the user aged 60. Next, the program feeds information from the user’s answers into a large language model that generates rich synthetic (合成) memories for the simulated older self. This ensures that when the chatbot responds to questions, it draws on a relevant backstory. The final part of the system is the chatbot itself, powered by OpenAI’s GPT3.5, which introduces itself as a potential older version of the user that is able to talk about its life experiences. Users are told the “future self” is not a prediction but rather a potential future self. They are encouraged to explore different futures by changing their answers to the questionnaire. Pataranutaporn, who works on the Future You project at MIT’s Media Lab, has had several conversations with his “future self”, but said the most profound (深远的) was when the chatbot reminded him that his parents would not be around for ever, so he should spend time with them while he could. “The session gave me a perspective that is still impactful to me to this day,” he said. “From a practical standpoint, the effectiveness will likely depend on how well it can simulate meaningful and relevant conversations,” he added. “If users perceive the chatbot as genuine and insightful, it could significantly influence their behaviour. However, if the interactions feel shallow, the impact might be limited.” 12. What can the “future self” chatbot help its users do? A. Improve their welfare. B. Inspire wise life choices. C. Polish their future selves. D. Get access to a time machine. 13. What is crucial to the production of an older version of the users? A. Their portrait image. B. Their memory ability. C. The information provided. D. The language model employed. 14. What does the underlined word “session” in paragraph 6 refer to? A. Pataranutaporn’s work at MIT’s Media Lab. B. The good old days of Pataranutaporn’s parents. C. The precious time Pataranutaporm spent with his parents. D. Pataranutaporn’s most profound talk with his "future self". 15. How does Pataranutaporn comment on the effectiveness of the chatbot? A. It depends. B. It doesn’t last long. C. It will be carefully checked. D. It will be disastrous. 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。 In a world rich with diversity yet often divided by differences, shared stories have the remarkable power to connect us.

Among the students, Emma Turner was known for her honesty. She was diligent , always completed her homework on time, and was trusted by her peers (同龄人) and teachers alike. She was also a model student, often helping others with their homework and organizing study groups. Her reputation for honesty and hard work made her a natural leader in her class. One autumn day, the entire school was excited. The annual science fair was approaching, and the students were busy perfecting their projects. Posters, models, and experiments filled the classrooms as everyone worked diligently. Emma had spent weeks on her project about renewable energy. She devoted herself to various sustainable (可持续的) energy sources, conducted experiments, and created a detailed display to showcase her findings. She was confident it would impress the judges. Her best friend, Max, however, had struggled to come up with an idea. He had procrastinated (拖延) , unsure of what topic to choose, and now the deadline drew near. Max admired Emma and felt guilty for not being prepared. In a moment of desperation, Max decided to “borrow” an older cousin's project and present it as his own. Max was sure that no one at Maplewood would know. The day of the science fair arrived, and the gym was filled with colorful displays, excited students, and curious parents. The air was thick with the smell of poster paint and anticipation. Emma’s display attracted a lot of attention. Teachers, students, and even a local news reporter stopped by to ask questions about her innovative ideas. She felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. As she made her rounds to view other projects, she noticed Max’s project. Her heart sank when she realized she had seen it before at a different fair years ago. 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。 Emma faced a difficult situation. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emma took a deep breath and approached Max. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 盐城市亭湖高级中学2025-2026学年度 第二学期高二年级阶段考试 英语试卷 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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，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。 1.

That’s why the Inca built Machu Picchu in what’s now Peru.(而且印加领导人有时也需要休假！这就是印加人在现在的秘鲁建造马丘比丘的原因)”可知，印加帝国建造马丘比丘是为了领导们的娱乐。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They cut the stones to fit together, and they didn’t use any material, like cement, to bind them. This way, when the ground shook, the stones could bounce around and then settle back into place.(他们把石头切割成一块块的，没有使用任何材料，比如水泥，来粘合它们。这样，当地面震动时，石头可以四处弹跳，然后回到原来的位置)”可知，印加建造者把石头拼在一起抵御地震。故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The Inca didn’t have a written language and instead used knotted cords called quipu (KEE-poo) to send messages and keep records.(印加人没有书面语言，而是使用一种名为quipu (KEE-poo)的绳结来传递信息和保存记录。专家认为打结的样式和绳子的颜色包含了信息)”可知，印加人通过使用自己独特的语言来分享重要信息。故选C。 B In the heart of the Kanien’keha Nation (卡尼恩克哈部族) in Canada, McComber, a native language teacher reflected on a question raised by Maori (毛利) language advocate Sir Karetu: what was his dream for the future of his language?

A. guaranteeing the survival of their own schools B. keeping their culture for future generations C. purifying their unique minority language D. practicing the tradition of their ancestors 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要说明了莫霍克语Kanien’ keha已经濒临灭绝，为了保护这种语言McComber寻求社会的支持和帮助，建立了Kohanga Reo模式。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“At the turn of the century, as it encountered more barriers, McComber looked around the world for help and inspiration, and Karetu was the answer. “Don’t wait for money or approval; just do the work,” Karetu told him. It’s the same message Karetu carried with him decades ago, when te reo Maori, the Maori language, was also on the line.(在世纪之交，当它遇到更多的障碍时，麦康伯向世界各地寻求帮助和灵感，而卡雷图就是答案。“不要等待金钱或认可；做你该做的，”卡雷图告诉他。几十年前，当te reo Maori（毛利人的语言）也处于危险之中时，Karetu也带着同样的信息)”可知，McComber向Karetu寻求帮助是因为Karetu曾经面临过类似的危机。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段““Grandparents became teachers,” she says. “The difference-maker was that the Kohanga Reo was entirely community-led. Families raised the money to rent classroom spaces, and volunteers planned and taught classes.”(“祖父母成了老师，”她说。“造成差异的原因是，Kohanga Reo完全由社区主导。家庭集资租用教室空间，志愿者策划并教授课程。”)”可知，来自社会的支持促成了Kohanga Reo的成功。故选D。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Translated in English as “language nest”, the Kohanga Reo model quickly became an important cultural export and inspired other minority communities worldwide. “Our parents ruled,” a student of McComber’s nest school says, “They wanted to teach us the beauty of our language, our culture, and who we are. And it has given me the confidence to speak and read with ease in both English and Kanien’keha.”(Kohanga Reo模式在英语中被翻译为“语言之巢”，迅速成为一种重要的文化输出，并激励了世界各地的其他少数民族社区。“我们的父母说了算，”麦康伯所在学校的一名学生说，“他们想教我们语言之美、文化之美，以及我们是谁。它给了我信心，让我可以轻松地用英语和卡尼亚语说话和阅读。”)”可知，第4段主要讲了Kohanga Reo模式的影响。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The model helped communities view the world through their ancestors’ eyes, ensuring the survival of their way of life. “It’s not just about language,” McComber can now answer that question. “It’s everything.”(该模式帮助社区通过祖先的眼睛看世界，确保了他们的生活方式的生存。“这不仅仅是语言的问题，”McComber现在可以回答这个问题。“这一切。”)”可知，通过说“这就是一切”，McComber建议为后代保留他们的文化。故选B。 C As more and more species near extinction, scientists have been collecting samples from animals, plants and other creatures and storing them in biobanks across the globe. But climate change, environmental disasters and wars threaten these modern Noah’s arks. Now, a team of researchers is brainstorming an out-of-this-world solution: building one of these vaults (库) on the moon. A biobank in a permanently shadowed region at the moon’s south pole could be far more stable than those on Earth. This part of the moon usually remains around -196° Celsius, perfect for storing most animal cells long-term, marine biologist Mary Hagedorn and colleagues report in BioScience. Hagedorn and colleagues drew inspiration from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault in Norway which takes advantage of below-zero Arctic temperatures to preserve millions of seeds from around the world. In 2017, melting (融化) frozen soil threatened to flood the vault, highlighting the need for a backup plan. A different team has proposed building a lunar ark in lava (熔岩) tubes that run beneath the moon’s surface. But that design requires a solar-powered cooling system; any loss of power and the samples would be destroyed. In the moon’s forever-frozen shadowed regions, a lunar vault wouldn’t need energy or constant human maintenance, Hagedorn’s team says. Given the shadowy south pole’s low temperatures, Hagedorn says, a vault there could store “one of the most powerful cells that we have today” — fibroblasts. Scientists can transform these animal cells into stem cells, “and then those stem cells can be used for cloning,” she says. The cells could be valuable for regenerating populations of threatened or extinct species and for building ecosystems in future human settlements on the moon or Mars. The proposal has its share of barriers. For instance, the moon’s permanently dark regions aren’t free from temperature swings, says lunar scientist Benjamin Greenhagen of the Johns Hopkins University. “They are still cold but perhaps not always cold enough for this project without some level of temperature management.” 8. Why is the moon an ideal place for the biobank? A. It’s not affected by wars. B. It’s not environmentally polluted. C. It has proper temperatures. D. It has rich resources for research. 9. What led to Hagedorn’s proposal of a lunar biobank? A. The solar-powered cooling system. B. The lava tubes on the moon’s surface. C. The problem facing the Norway Vault. D. The discovery of ice on the lunar pole. 10. What can scientists use fibroblasts to do? A. Form stem cells for cloning. B. Explore moon soil conditions. C. Help land humans on the moon. D. Improve the eco-system of the earth. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Lunar Exploration: The Next Frontier for Cloning B. Relieving Climate Change: The Moon Biobank Project C. The Moon as a Backup: A New Solution for Seed Storage D. Building Biobanks on the Moon: A Proposal to Save Biodiversity 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述随着气候变化和人类活动对地球的威胁日益加剧，科学家们提议在月球上建立一个生物库，以保护地球上濒危物种。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“This part of the moon usually remains around -196° Celsius, perfect for storing most animal cells long-term(月球的这一部分通常保持在零下196摄氏度左右，非常适合长期储存大多数动物细胞)”可知，月球温度适宜，是建立生物库的理想之地，故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hagedorn and colleagues drew inspiration from the Svalbard Global Seed Vault in Norway which takes advantage of below-zero Arctic temperatures to preserve millions of seeds from around the world. In 2017, melting (融化) frozen soil threatened to flood the vault, highlighting the need for a backup plan.(Hagedorn和他的同事们从挪威的斯瓦尔巴全球种子库获得了灵感，该种子库利用北极零下的温度保存了来自世界各地的数百万颗种子。2017年，融化的冻土有可能淹没了种子库，这凸显了后备计划的必要性)”可知，挪威的斯瓦尔巴全球种子库面临的问题致使Hagedorn提出建立一个月球生物库，故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Given the shadowy south pole’s low temperatures, Hagedorn says, a vault there could store “one of the most powerful cells that we have today” — fibroblasts. Scientists can transform these animal cells into stem cells, “and then those stem cells can be used for cloning,” she says.(Hagedorn说，鉴于南极阴暗地区的低温，那里的一个储藏室可以储存“我们今天拥有的最强大的细胞之一”——成纤维细胞。科学家们可以将这些动物细胞转化为干细胞，“然后这些干细胞可以用于克隆，”她说。)”可知，成纤维细胞可以转化为干细胞用于克隆，故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“Now, a team of researchers is brainstorming an out-of-this-world solution: building one of these vaults (库) on the moon.(现在，一组研究人员正在集思广益，想出一个天外飞行的解决方案：在月球上建造一个这样的储藏库)”可知，文章主要讲述随着气候变化和人类活动对地球的威胁日益加剧，科学家们提议在月球上建立一个生物库，以保护地球上濒危物种。D项“在月球上建立生物库：拯救生物多样性的建议”为最佳标题，故选D。 D Without ready access to a time machine, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have built an AI-powered chatbot that simulates (模拟) a user’s older self and dishes out observations and wisdom. It has the potential to significantly impact how people make decisions today with their future wellbeing in mind. To interact with the chatbot, users are first asked to answer a series of questions about themselves, their friends and family, the past experiences that shaped them, and the ideal life they envision for the future. They then upload a portrait image, which the program digitally ages to produce a likeness of the user aged 60. Next, the program feeds information from the user’s answers into a large language model that generates rich synthetic (合成) memories for the simulated older self. This ensures that when the chatbot responds to questions, it draws on a relevant backstory. The final part of the system is the chatbot itself, powered by OpenAI’s GPT3.5, which introduces itself as a potential older version of the user that is able to talk about its life experiences. Users are told the “future self” is not a prediction but rather a potential future self. They are encouraged to explore different futures by changing their answers to the questionnaire. Pataranutaporn, who works on the Future You project at MIT’s Media Lab, has had several conversations with his “future self”, but said the most profound (深远的) was when the chatbot reminded him that his parents would not be around for ever, so he should spend time with them while he could. “The session gave me a perspective that is still impactful to me to this day,” he said. “From a practical standpoint, the effectiveness will likely depend on how well it can simulate meaningful and relevant conversations,” he added. “If users perceive the chatbot as genuine and insightful, it could significantly influence their behaviour. However, if the interactions feel shallow, the impact might be limited.” 12. What can the “future self” chatbot help its users do? A. Improve their welfare. B. Inspire wise life choices. C. Polish their future selves. D. Get access to a time machine. 13. What is crucial to the production of an older version of the users? A. Their portrait image. B. Their memory ability. C. The information provided. D. The language model employed. 14. What does the underlined word “session” in paragraph 6 refer to? A. Pataranutaporn’s work at MIT’s Media Lab. B. The good old days of Pataranutaporn’s parents. C. The precious time Pataranutaporm spent with his parents. D. Pataranutaporn’s most profound talk with his "future self". 15. How does Pataranutaporn comment on the effectiveness of the chatbot? A. It depends. B. It doesn’t last long. C. It will be carefully checked. D. It will be disastrous. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。详细介绍了麻省理工学院（MIT）研究人员开发的一款基于人工智能（AI）的聊天机器人，这款聊天机器人能够模拟用户的未来自我，并给出观察和智慧。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Without ready access to a time machine, researchers at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have built an AI-powered chatbot that simulates (模拟) a user’s older self and dishes out observations and wisdom. It has the potential to significantly impact how people make decisions today with their future wellbeing in mind.(麻省理工学院(MIT)的研究人员在没有现成的时光机的情况下，制造了一个人工智能聊天机器人，它可以模拟用户的老年自我，并提供观察和智慧。它有可能显著影响人们在考虑未来福祉的情况下做出决定的方式)”可知，“future self”聊天机器人可以帮助用户做出明智的生活选择，考虑未来的福祉。故选B项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Next, the program feeds information from the user’s answers into a large language model that generates rich synthetic (合成) memories for the simulated older self. This ensures that when the chatbot responds to questions, it draws on a relevant backstory.(接下来，该程序将用户回答中的信息输入一个大型语言模型，该模型为模拟的老年自我生成丰富的合成记忆。这确保了当聊天机器人回答问题时，它会利用相关的背景故事)”可知，用户提供的信息对于生成用户老年版是至关重要的。故选C项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据前文“Pataranutaporn, who works on the Future You project at MIT’s Media Lab, has had several conversations with his “future self”, but said the most profound (深远的) was when the chatbot reminded him that his parents would not be around for ever, so he should spend time with them while he could.(Pataranutaporn在麻省理工学院媒体实验室从事“未来你”项目，他已经和“未来的自己”进行了几次对话，但他说，最深刻的一次是聊天机器人提醒他，他的父母不会永远在身边，所以他应该尽可能多地和他们在一起)”可知，本段提到了“最深刻的”一次与“未来的自己”的对话，这次对话给了他一个至今仍然对他有影响力的视角。因此，“session”指的是Pataranutaporn与他的“未来的自己”最深刻的对话。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““From a practical standpoint, the effectiveness will likely depend on how well it can simulate meaningful and relevant conversations,” he added. “If users perceive the chatbot as genuine and insightful, it could significantly influence their behaviour. However, if the interactions feel shallow, the impact might be limited.”(他补充说：“从实际的角度来看，效果可能取决于它能在多大程度上模拟有意义和相关的对话。”“如果用户认为聊天机器人真诚而有洞察力，它可能会对他们的行为产生重大影响。然而，如果互动感觉很肤浅，那么影响可能是有限的。”)”可知，Pataranutaporn认为聊天机器人的有效性取决于它模拟有意义和相关对话的能力，即“取决于情况”。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。 In a world rich with diversity yet often divided by differences, shared stories have the remarkable power to connect us.

Among the students, Emma Turner was known for her honesty. She was diligent , always completed her homework on time, and was trusted by her peers (同龄人) and teachers alike. She was also a model student, often helping others with their homework and organizing study groups. Her reputation for honesty and hard work made her a natural leader in her class. One autumn day, the entire school was excited. The annual science fair was approaching, and the students were busy perfecting their projects. Posters, models, and experiments filled the classrooms as everyone worked diligently. Emma had spent weeks on her project about renewable energy. She devoted herself to various sustainable (可持续的) energy sources, conducted experiments, and created a detailed display to showcase her findings. She was confident it would impress the judges. Her best friend, Max, however, had struggled to come up with an idea. He had procrastinated (拖延) , unsure of what topic to choose, and now the deadline drew near. Max admired Emma and felt guilty for not being prepared. In a moment of desperation, Max decided to “borrow” an older cousin's project and present it as his own. Max was sure that no one at Maplewood would know. The day of the science fair arrived, and the gym was filled with colorful displays, excited students, and curious parents. The air was thick with the smell of poster paint and anticipation. Emma’s display attracted a lot of attention. Teachers, students, and even a local news reporter stopped by to ask questions about her innovative ideas. She felt a sense of pride and accomplishment. As she made her rounds to view other projects, she noticed Max’s project. Her heart sank when she realized she had seen it before at a different fair years ago. 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。 Emma faced a difficult situation. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emma took a deep breath and approached Max. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Emma faced a difficult situation. On one hand, she didn't want to get Max in trouble; on the other hand, it wasn't fair for Max to win with someone else's work. If she remained silent, it would go against everything she believed in. Torn between loyalty to her friend and her commitment to honesty, Emma decided to confront Max privately. She knew the conversation would be difficult, but she believed honesty was more important than anything. Emma took a deep breath and approached Max. She gently tapped him on the shoulder, telling him that she had recognized his project. Max's face paled, his head hung in shame. Emma smiled encouragingly, “I understand you were in a difficult situation, but we can't do this. We have to be honest. ” Realizing his misbehavior, Max approached the judges and admitted that he was wrong. Though embarrassed, he felt a weight off his shoulders. The judges appreciated his honesty and encouraged him to try again next year. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了艾玛因为在科学展览会上展示别人的项目而质问马克斯，并敦促他承担责任。尽管感到尴尬，马克斯还是承认了自己的错误，后来他的正直得到了表扬。这个故事的寓意是要重视诚实和正直。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“艾玛面临着一个困难的处境。”可知，第一段可描写艾玛两难心理活动的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“艾玛深吸了一口气，走近马克斯。”可知，第二段可描写艾玛揭露马克斯的错误行为以及马克斯认识到了自己的不当行为。 2.续写线索：面临着一个困难的处境——两难心理活动过程——走近马克斯——揭露错误行为——马克斯承认错误——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①违背：go against /violate ②.决定做某事：decided to do/ determine to do ③.认出，识别：recognized /knew 情绪类 ①.忠诚：loyalty / faithfulness ②.尴尬的：embarrassed / awkward 【点睛】[高分句型1] If she remained silent, it would go against everything she believed in.（运用了If引导的条件状语从句。） [高分句型2]She gently tapped him on the shoulder, telling him that she had recognized his project.（运用了非谓语动词中的现在分词作状语以及that引导的宾语从句。） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
