One of his watches which is now in an American museum took 3500 hours to complete. He usually makes one watch a year. Each one is inscribed (刻) with “Daniels London” and costs about $10,000. Of course these are not ordinary watches — they are very beautiful and will last three centuries. George Daniels has always been attracted by clocks and watches. When he was five he used to take his father’s clock apart and put it back together again. At school he used to repair his teachers watches. He is now internationally famous and many people would like him to make watches for them. But most of them will be disappointed. He chooses his customers very carefully indeed.

Take this simple sentence as an example: Let’s eat Dad! Without a comma, Dad becomes the food. Add comma, and Dad becomes a partner at dinner: Let’s eat, Dad! The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence. Here’s another example: Tom said Sarah stole the cake. Here, Sarah is the thief. But add a pair of commas, and Tom becomes the thief: Tom, said Sarah, stole the cake. The examples above clearly show that people cannot do without commas in writing. Yet, the comma came from oral speeches. Long ago, most people could not read. They listened to the news or stories told by the people who gave speeches. The comma began as something to mark the resting place in a sentence. When reading, the speakers knew where to stop and take a breath. In writing, commas are like shining red lights on the road. They require that you wait a moment before continuing. And don’t add a comma when you feel like it. There are rules that people shall not break. Learn them, and you won’t be eating anyone or making wrong changes. 4. Without commas, life would be ________. A. frightening B. puzzling C. relaxing D. interesting 5. The author uses two examples in the passage to________. A. tell jokes to readers B. show the importance of using commas C. tell stories to readers D. show the difficulty of using commas 6. According to the last paragraph, we use commas by following________. A. our feelings B. our speeches C. certain rules D. some facts 7. What is the best title for the passage? A. Commas Make Sentences Clear. B. Commas Make English Interesting. C. Commas Make Writing Easy. D. Commas Make Speeches Surprising. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了逗号在句子中的重要性及其使用规则。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段“What would life be like without commas (逗号)? It would be quite confusing. (没有逗号的生活会是什么样子？这将是相当令人困惑的。)”可知，没有逗号，生活会变得令人困惑。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第一段“The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence. (逗号使人们能够更好地理解句子。)”和第三段“The examples above clearly show that people cannot do without commas in writing. (上面的例子清楚地表明，人们在写作中离不开逗号)”可知，作者在文章中用了两个例子来说明使用逗号的重要性。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。 根据最后一段“And don’t add a comma when you feel like it. There are rules that people shall not break. (当你想加逗号的时候，不要加逗号。有些规则是人们不能违反的)”可知，使用逗号要遵循一定的规则。故选C。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。 根据第一段的“The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence. (逗号使人们能够更好地理解句子。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了逗号在句子中的重要性，它可以使句子更加清晰易懂。因此，最好的标题是“Commas Make Sentences Clear. (逗号使句子清晰。)”。故选A。 C Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas. Australian magpies are medium-sized black and white birds from the same bird“family” as crows and bluejays. They are known to be quite clever. They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in. The purpose of the scientists’ experiment was to learn more about how far they travel each day and how their social behaviors are influenced by sex, age, and rank. Besides, the scientists were eager to test the newly developed tracking device. Most trackers are too big to fit on small and medium sized birds, and small trackers tend to be limited when it comes to data storage, battery life, and reusability. The new tracker,weighing less than 1 gram, was designed to overcome these problems. Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly. The scientists placed trackers on five magpies using their special harnesses. Things started to fall apart almost immediately. Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore. Scientists refer to this as“rescue behavior,” and it happens when a helper tries to free another individual in trouble and with no obvious direct benefit to the rescuing individual.They think this is the first time rescue behavior has been reported for Australian magpies.However, they aren’t sure if the same individual removed all of the harnesses or if others offered help. The team didn’t get the data they wanted, but their experiment still produced interesting results. That’s how science works sometimes. The scientists need to try, again to figure out a good way to track these clever birds. 8. What can we learn about Australian magpies from paragraph 2? A. They outsmart crows. B. They are social species. C. They are rarely spotted. D. They learn from each other. 9. What is a big advantage of the new tracking device? A. It can work without wires. B. It can be applied to all birds. C. It doesn’t come off the birds. D. It doesn’t need to be re-charged. 10. What happened to the magpies after the trackers were attached to them? A. They couldn’t fly as normal. B. They were warned by other magpies. C. They helped each other to remove the trackers. D. They were driven out of their home by other adult magpies. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Magpies Teach Scientists an Unexpected Lesson B. Climate Change Makes Magpies More Difficult C. The Trackers Help Magpies Get Used to Nature D. Magpies Are Adjusting to the Trackers on Their Bodies 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了澳大利亚科学家为监测喜鹊，给五只喜鹊安装了新研发的不到1克的追踪器，却被其他喜鹊在三天内拆掉，这或为喜鹊救援行为，实验虽未达目的却有新发现。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in.(它们通常以12只为一群生活在一起，并共同协作来保卫它们所栖息的区域)”可知，澳大利亚喜鹊是群居动物。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly.(它被安装在一个类似背包的背带上（无法轻易取下），可以无线充电并无线传输数据)”可知，这种新型追踪设备的最大优点是无需电线即可工作。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore.(在安装最后一个追踪器后的 10 分钟内，一只没有追踪器的成年雌鸟试图从一只较年轻的鸟身上取下背带，最终成功了。这种模式在接下来的几个小时内不断重复，到第三天，所有的鸟都没有追踪器了)”可知，当追踪器被安装在喜鹊身上之后，它们相互帮助，把追踪器取了下来。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas.(澳大利亚的科学家们原本以为他们已经研发出了一种新的追踪设备，能够帮助他们监测喜鹊的行为，但这些鸟儿却另有打算)”结合文章主要说明了澳大利亚科学家为监测喜鹊，给五只喜鹊安装了新研发的不到1克的追踪器，却被其他喜鹊在三天内拆掉，这或为喜鹊救援行为，实验虽未达目的却有新发现。可知，A选项“喜鹊让科学家们有了一个意想不到的发现”最符合文章标题。故选A。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 Can you play basketball?

I wasn’t fast, strong, or particularly coordinated. Physical Education (PE) was always a challenge for me, and I often found excuses to avoid it. Then, one day, our PE teacher, Coach Davis, announced that we would be starting a unit on cross-country running. My heart sank. Running long distances seemed impossible, and I was sure I’d be the last to finish every time. After our first practice, where I indeed came in last, I wanted to quit. My legs were sore, and I was completely out of breath. I approached Coach Davis to tell him I couldn’t do it. Instead of letting me give up, he surprised me by saying, “You don’t have to be the fastest. All I ask is that you try your best and improve a little each day.” His words caught me off guard. He wasn’t expecting me to win races; he just wanted me to push myself. The next day, I decided to give it another try. I set small goals for myself: running a little farther each time, walking less, and trying to keep a steady pace. At first, progress was slow. I still struggled and often felt like giving up, but Coach Davis was always there to encourage me. He reminded me that improvement came with time, and that it wasn’t about how fast I could go but how hard I worked. After a few weeks, I noticed a change. My endurance improved, and I no longer dreaded each run. While I still wasn’t the fastest, I had stopped coming in last. For the first time, I felt proud of my effort. Coach Davis’s belief in me had sparked something I never thought I had — a desire to push my limits. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 A month later, something unexpected happened. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the event, I realized that the real success wasn’t about where I was placed in the race. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A month later, something unexpected happened. During a school-wide cross-country event, I managed to finish in the middle of the pack. It wasn’t a victory by traditional standards, but for me, it was a huge accomplishment. As I crossed the finish line, breathless but smiling, Coach Davis was waiting for me. “Look at you,” he said proudly. “You didn’t give up, and now you’re seeing what you’re capable of.” Hearing those words felt better than winning a medal. I had achieved something I never thought possible through persistence and determination. After the event, I realized that the real success wasn’t about where I was placed in the race. It was about overcoming my own doubts and fears. Coach Davis had taught me that progress is personal and that every small step forward counts. From that day on, I applied the same mindset to other areas of my life, whether it was in academics or personal challenges. Running has shown me that with effort and patience, I can accomplish more than I ever thought I could. It is no longer just about sports — it is about believing in myself and pushing beyond what I think are my limits. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者九年级时体育不好，逃避跑步，但在教练戴维斯的鼓励下，作者坚持练习，耐力提升，不再是最后一名，还产生了超越极限的渴望。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一个月后，一件意想不到的事情发生了。”可知，第一段可描述在学校越野赛中作者取得了较好成绩，教练为作者感到骄傲，肯定作者的坚持与努力。 ②由第二段首句内容“这次活动之后，我意识到真正的成功并不在于我在比赛中的名次。”可知，第二段可阐述作者对成功的新认识，并表示会把这种坚持努力的心态运用到生活的其他方面。 2. 续写线索：学校越野赛取得进步——教练肯定鼓励——意识到成功的真谛——将心态运用到生活各方面 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①完成：finish → complete ②取得：achieve → obtain ③克服：overcome → conquer 情绪类 ①自豪地：proudly → with pride ②决心：determination → resolution 【点睛】[高分句型1] As I crossed the finish line, breathless but smiling, Coach Davis was waiting for me.(运用了从属连词as引导的时间状语从句和形容词短语作伴随状语) [高分句型2] I had achieved something I never thought possible through persistence and determination.(运用了省略关系代词的限制性定语从句) [高分句型3] It is no longer just about sports — it is about believing in myself and pushing beyond what I think are my limits.(运用了连接代词what引导宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 莆田十五中2025-2026学年高二下学期第一次月考 英语试卷 注意事项： 1．答题前，学生务必在练习卷、答题卡规定的地方填写自己的学校、准考证号、姓名。学生要认真核对答题卡上粘贴的条形码的“准考证号、姓名”与学生本人准考证号、姓名是否一致。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其它答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本练习卷上无效。 3．练习结束后，学生必须将练习卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分: 听力(共两节，每小题1.5分，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。 1.

His work continues the tradition of the English watchmakers of the 18th and 19th centuries. Today this tradition is almost dead. Daniels is the only man in the world who designs his own watches makes all the pars himself and then puts them together. A Daniels watch is the product of his hands alone. One of his watches which is now in an American museum took 3500 hours to complete. He usually makes one watch a year. Each one is inscribed (刻) with “Daniels London” and costs about $10,000. Of course these are not ordinary watches — they are very beautiful and will last three centuries. George Daniels has always been attracted by clocks and watches. When he was five he used to take his father’s clock apart and put it back together again. At school he used to repair his teachers watches. He is now internationally famous and many people would like him to make watches for them. But most of them will be disappointed. He chooses his customers very carefully indeed. It must be someone who understands the subject,” he says “not someone who will leave the watch in the drawer and only show it to dinner quests.” 1. Who is George Daniels? A. One of the few who repaired watches in the old days. B. The only man who collects old watches in the world. C. One of the few remaining watch designers in the world. D. The only man who designs and makes watches by himself. 2. Which of the following shows Daniels’ early interest in watches? A. He played with his father’s clock. B. He taught people how to repair watches. C. He made a watch for an American museum. D. He made beautiful and long-lasting watches. 3. George Daniels makes watches for those who _________. A. can afford his watches B. may want to show them to others C. appreciate his watches D. enjoy his watch-making process B What would life be like without commas (逗号)? It would be quite confusing. Take this simple sentence as an example: Let’s eat Dad! Without a comma, Dad becomes the food. Add comma, and Dad becomes a partner at dinner: Let’s eat, Dad! The comma enables people to have a better understanding of the sentence. Here’s another example: Tom said Sarah stole the cake. Here, Sarah is the thief. But add a pair of commas, and Tom becomes the thief: Tom, said Sarah, stole the cake. The examples above clearly show that people cannot do without commas in writing. Yet, the comma came from oral speeches. Long ago, most people could not read. They listened to the news or stories told by the people who gave speeches. The comma began as something to mark the resting place in a sentence. When reading, the speakers knew where to stop and take a breath. In writing, commas are like shining red lights on the road. They require that you wait a moment before continuing. And don’t add a comma when you feel like it. There are rules that people shall not break. Learn them, and you won’t be eating anyone or making wrong changes. 4. Without commas, life would be ________. A. frightening B. puzzling C. relaxing D. interesting 5. The author uses two examples in the passage to________. A. tell jokes to readers B. show the importance of using commas C. tell stories to readers D. show the difficulty of using commas 6. According to the last paragraph, we use commas by following________. A. our feelings B. our speeches C. certain rules D. some facts 7. What is the best title for the passage? A. Commas Make Sentences Clear. B. Commas Make English Interesting. C. Commas Make Writing Easy. D. Commas Make Speeches Surprising. C Scientists in Australia thought they had developed a new tracking device to help them monitor magpies (喜鹊), but these birds had other ideas. Australian magpies are medium-sized black and white birds from the same bird“family” as crows and bluejays. They are known to be quite clever. They live in groups of up to 12 birds and work together to defend the area they live in. The purpose of the scientists’ experiment was to learn more about how far they travel each day and how their social behaviors are influenced by sex, age, and rank. Besides, the scientists were eager to test the newly developed tracking device. Most trackers are too big to fit on small and medium sized birds, and small trackers tend to be limited when it comes to data storage, battery life, and reusability. The new tracker,weighing less than 1 gram, was designed to overcome these problems. Attached to a backpack-like harness (背带) which could not be removed easily, the device can re-charge wirelessly and transmit (传输) data wirelessly. The scientists placed trackers on five magpies using their special harnesses. Things started to fall apart almost immediately. Within 10 minutes of fitting the final tracker, an adult female without a tracker tried to remove the harness from a younger bird and eventually succeeded. This pattern was repeated in the following hours, and by the third day none of the birds had trackers anymore. Scientists refer to this as“rescue behavior,” and it happens when a helper tries to free another individual in trouble and with no obvious direct benefit to the rescuing individual.They think this is the first time rescue behavior has been reported for Australian magpies.However, they aren’t sure if the same individual removed all of the harnesses or if others offered help. The team didn’t get the data they wanted, but their experiment still produced interesting results. That’s how science works sometimes. The scientists need to try, again to figure out a good way to track these clever birds. 8. What can we learn about Australian magpies from paragraph 2? A. They outsmart crows. B. They are social species. C. They are rarely spotted. D. They learn from each other. 9. What is a big advantage of the new tracking device? A. It can work without wires. B. It can be applied to all birds. C. It doesn’t come off the birds. D. It doesn’t need to be re-charged. 10. What happened to the magpies after the trackers were attached to them? A. They couldn’t fly as normal. B. They were warned by other magpies. C. They helped each other to remove the trackers. D. They were driven out of their home by other adult magpies. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Magpies Teach Scientists an Unexpected Lesson B. Climate Change Makes Magpies More Difficult C. The Trackers Help Magpies Get Used to Nature D. Magpies Are Adjusting to the Trackers on Their Bodies 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。 Can you play basketball? Some people may think it is too competitive.

I wasn’t fast, strong, or particularly coordinated. Physical Education (PE) was always a challenge for me, and I often found excuses to avoid it. Then, one day, our PE teacher, Coach Davis, announced that we would be starting a unit on cross-country running. My heart sank. Running long distances seemed impossible, and I was sure I’d be the last to finish every time. After our first practice, where I indeed came in last, I wanted to quit. My legs were sore, and I was completely out of breath. I approached Coach Davis to tell him I couldn’t do it. Instead of letting me give up, he surprised me by saying, “You don’t have to be the fastest. All I ask is that you try your best and improve a little each day.” His words caught me off guard. He wasn’t expecting me to win races; he just wanted me to push myself. The next day, I decided to give it another try. I set small goals for myself: running a little farther each time, walking less, and trying to keep a steady pace. At first, progress was slow. I still struggled and often felt like giving up, but Coach Davis was always there to encourage me. He reminded me that improvement came with time, and that it wasn’t about how fast I could go but how hard I worked. After a few weeks, I noticed a change. My endurance improved, and I no longer dreaded each run. While I still wasn’t the fastest, I had stopped coming in last. For the first time, I felt proud of my effort. Coach Davis’s belief in me had sparked something I never thought I had — a desire to push my limits. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为150个左右； (2) 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 A month later, something unexpected happened. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the event, I realized that the real success wasn’t about where I was placed in the race. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
