Opening its doors in 1910, the museum has a collection of over 1.145 million specimens (标本) of plants, animals, rocks, human remains, and human cultural artifacts, the largest natural history collection in the world. It is also home to about 180 professional natural history scientists who focus on the study of natural and cultural history in the world. The National Callery of Art Open to the public and free of charge, the museum was privately established in 1937. Its collection includes many donated works of art. The Gallery’s collection of paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, medals, and decorative arts traces (追溯) the development of Western art from the Middle Ages to the present, including the only painting by Leonardo da Vinci in the Americas and the largest mobile created by Alexander Calder. The Metropolitan Museum of Art It is the largest art museum in America. It was s founded in 1870 with its mission to bring art and art education to Americans. The museum’s collection contains works of art dating back to the ancient Near East and ancient Egypt. It includes works of art from many European Old Masters as well as many collections of American art. The museum is home to collection of musical instruments, costumes, and decorative arts. The Museum of Modern Art It is an art museum located in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. The institution was conceived (构想) in 1929. It moved to several locations in its early years, and John D. Rockefeller Jr. finally donated the land for its permanent (永久的) site. The collection includes architecture, drawings, paintings, photographs, prints, artists’ books, films, and electronic media. 1. Which museum would you go to if you are curious about Western art history? A. The National Gallery of Art. B. The Museum of Modern Art. C. The Metropolitan Museum of Art. D. The National Museum of Natural History. 2. Why did people build the Metropolitan Museum of Art in 1870? A. To store works of art of different countries. B. To satisfy people’s thirst for museums. C. To make Americans learn about art. D. To document American history. 3. What do we know about the Museum of Modern Art? A. It once changed locations for several times. B. It was recommended by John D.

For some, that might be a gloomy prospect after the joys of the post Christmas festive period. For me, though, it’s as exciting as a trip to Antarctica, also as scary as starting a job for which I’m not sure whether I’m qualified. To be embarking on a master’s degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling at Regent’s University at 71 is perhaps an unlikely route for someone who dropped out of school at 17. But now I’ve come full circle to the conclusion that nothing, for me, feels more stimulating at this point in my life than learning new things. That studying, far from being the bore and the chore it used to be, is a treat. Turning 70 came as something of a shock. I started to feel I was drifting (飘). Without a big project, and without any major family responsibilities, I was starting to feel I was lying on a bed of thorns. Friends of similar age were lapping up their lives, socializing and travelling. However, I longed for something more. Or perhaps not more, but different. As the gloom grew, I thought perhaps I needed to see a therapist. A friend, a psychotherapist, suggested that while therapy might be useful, doing a course on the basics of psychotherapy and counselling might be more up my street. Without too much thinking, I decided to give it a shot. So that’s how every weekday I beep (发出哔哔声) myself through the gate with my student pass, which makes me smile every time. I felt privileged to be exposed to a group of my fellow students who were willing to be open to me. While ageing is an inevitable process, we can get rid of a lot of the rules about what’s age-appropriate. Studying for a master’s degree in old age is a challenge, but it has provided me with a new perspective on life. Hence, ageing should never limit your ambitions. 4. How did the author feel when going back to school? A. Unrealistic. B. Resistant. C. Awkward. D. Expectant. 5. Why did turning 70 come as a shock to the author? A. She achieved nothing before. B. She lived without a purpose. C. She had to support her family. D. She was separated by her fellows. 6. What is the author’s suggestion when facing ageing? A. Keeping your passions alive. B. Seeking support if needed. C. Behaving age-appropriately. D. Socializing with young students. 7. What can be the best title for the text? A. Returning To School — My Dream Since Childhood B. My Efforts To Learn At An unlikely Age Paying Off C. Learning — My Way To Overcome The Ageing Crisis D. My Tough Journey To Pursuing A Master’s Degree C What has the size of a soccer ball but can jump from the Statue of Liberty’s feet to her eye level? A new record-setting robot. An engineer at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Elliot Hawkes, has been working on this robot for seven years with his colleagues. “It started out as a stick with weights and rubber bands (橡皮筋)”, he remembers. After years of work, the robot has reached heights of 30 meters, higher than any other jumping robot or living animal. These researchers studied how animals jump. They looked into leaping (跳跃的) frogs, spiders, kangaroos, dogs and more. But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers. “It’s very exciting,” says Cynthia Sung, a roboticist at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. She was impressed with how high the robot jumped. And getting as high as possible was the main goal here. However, for the robot to be useful, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction. Sung’s team has made its own jumping robot, named REBOund. That robot can’t jump very high. But it can be programmed to jump to any of several different heights. Hawkes’ team is working to add steering to their robot. These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there. A jumper can go to places a robot with wheels can’t. Hawkes’ team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer. 8. Why did the researchers look into how animals jump? A. To draw inspiration for the robot’s appearance. B. To find reasons for their jumping limits. C. To make the robot jump like them. D. To develop new rubber bands 9. What does Cynthia Sung want to show through her words? A. Her REBOund is much better. B. Her REBOund is a big breakthrough. C. Hawkes’ new robot can jump much higher. D. Hawkes’ new robot needs to be more practical. 10. What is Hawkes’ team’s attitude to their robot? A. They seem reserved about it. B. They are doubtful about it. C. They have high hopes for it. D. They are very concerned about it. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. A new way to explore the moon. B. A new method of building robots. C. A new approach to jumping higher. D. A new record-setting leaping robot. D Italian diver and gardener Sergio Gamberini decided to see if he could grow vegetables in a plastic balloon underwater. The experiment was a success — so he decided to dive deeper into the world of underwater agriculture. Today, Gamberini is the founder of a company using “biospheres” off the coast of Italy to grow a variety of plants, introducing the world to a new type of agriculture. The company’s six “biospheres” are air-filled plastic balloons about two meters wide. Each is fixed to the seabed by chains so that it sits between 15 and 36 feet below sea level. The biospheres are equipped with cameras and sensors that allow researchers in the company to monitor CO2 levels, humidity, temperature, and more from a control tower on the shoreline. There’s also a device to communicate with divers in the biospheres. Solar panels (太阳能电池板) on the roof of the control tower power the fans that create airflow inside the biospheres, and because the temperature inside and outside the biospheres is consistent, there’s no need to expend energy on the heating or cooling systems needed for traditional greenhouses. The underwater garden doesn’t require pesticides since bugs can’t reach the plants, and though more research is needed, the company notes on its website that the higher-pressure conditions underwater appear to help plants grow more quickly. Even with all the optimization potential offered by technology, Gamberini admits it’s hard to imagine the produce grown in his startup’s biospheres ever competing financially with traditionally grown crops. Still, he hopes the system’s sustainability will be enough to draw customers. 12. What does Gamberini’s company use “biospheres” mainly for? A. Doing scientific research on marine life. B. Creating a habitat for underwater animals. C. Monitoring climate change effects on coastal regions. D. Growing different types of plants through underwater agriculture. 13. How is the temperature maintained inside the biospheres? A. By temperature regulation by divers. B. By advanced heating and cooling systems. C. By natural climate conditions of the underwater environment. D. By solar panels on the roof of the control tower on the shoreline. 14. What can we infer about Gamberini’s company? A. It contributes to climate change. B. It leads to excessive use of pesticides. C. It negatively affects ocean biodiversity. D. It has little negative influence on the environment. 15. What is the topic of the text? A. Growing plants under the sea. B. The creative world of keeping animals. C. Exploring the depths of underwater farming. D. The challenge of growing greens underwater. 第二节 七选五 (共5小题:每小题2.5分,共12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Regret is a very real reaction to a disappointing event in your life, a choice you made that can’t be changed, something you said that you can’t take back. ____16____ Regret can increase our stress, negatively affect physical health and disturb the balance of our immune systems. ____17____ One is what researchers refer to as the action path and the other is the inaction path.

After a month in class, she had a new classmate, John. The boy and his three younger brothers, together with their poor parents, had just moved to the town where Gina lived. When the school presented the boys with the school supply list for all fourth graders, they were upset. They had no money, so they hardly had the supplies required. They only had a few sheets of poor-quality paper and a pencil each. As a result, except Gina, all kids in class made fun of John, who felt so embarrassed and lonely. Gina was sad to see it and felt sorry for John, so she decided to do something. She asked her mother Linda for new pencils, crayons, paper, etc. Without hesitation, Linda agreed. The next morning, Gina got up much earlier than usual. Although Linda found it strange, she didn’t ask too much. When Gina hurried to school, she quickly put her new supplies into John’s desk before other classmates came in. Later, John was amazed and confused to find the supplies. He looked around, but Gina focused on her book, pretending to know nothing. John was disappointed; he failed to find the angel. After class began, other kids in class were also surprised by John’s new supplies and couldn’t laugh at him anymore. After that day, Gina began to come home on a regular basis asking for school supplies. She didn’t tell that she would give them to John, fearing Linda wouldn’t agree with it. And as usual, Linda just dutifully provided whatever she needed, never questioning her. After ongoing requests for items that should have easily lasted a long time, Linda became concerned and asked her, “Gina, what are you doing with your school supplies?” The girl would always respond with an answer that satisfied her. One day, after supplying the same thing only a week earlier, Linda became annoyed with her. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。 She asked her once more, “Gina! What’s going on with your school supplies?” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Wanting to know more about John, the next day Linda visited Mrs Melton. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 达旗一中高二年级 2025-2026 学年第二学期第二次评估诊断英语试题 第一部分 听力 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话或独白, 选出最佳选项。 1.

For some, that might be a gloomy prospect after the joys of the post Christmas festive period. For me, though, it’s as exciting as a trip to Antarctica, also as scary as starting a job for which I’m not sure whether I’m qualified. (现在是一月份，是时候回学校了。对一些人来说，在圣诞节后的欢乐过后，这可能是一个令人沮丧的前景。然而，对我来说，这就像去南极洲旅行一样令人兴奋，也像开始一份我不确定自己是否胜任的工作一样令人恐惧。)”和第二段“To be embarking on a master’s degree in Psychotherapy and Counselling at Regent’s University at 71 is perhaps an unlikely route for someone who dropped out of school at 17. But now I’ve come full circle to the conclusion that nothing, for me, feels more stimulating at this point in my life than learning new things. That studying, far from being the bore and the chore it used to be, is a treat. (对于一个17岁就辍学的人来说，71岁开始在摄政大学攻读心理治疗和咨询专业的硕士学位可能是一条不太可能的道路。但现在，我绕了一圈，得出了一个结论：对我来说，在我生命的这个阶段，没有什么比学习新事物更令人兴奋的了。学习不再像以前那样枯燥乏味，而是一种享受。)”可知，返校的时间到了，作者感到十分兴奋，她觉得学习不再是苦差事，而是一种享受，所以她满怀期待，故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Without a big project, and without any major family responsibilities, I was starting to feel I was lying on a bed of thorns. Friends of similar age were lapping up their lives, socializing and travelling. However, I longed for something more. Or perhaps not more, but different. (没有一个大项目，没有任何主要的家庭责任，我开始觉得自己躺在荆棘的床上。同龄的朋友们享受着他们的生活、社交和旅行。然而，我渴望更多的东西。或许不会更多，但会有所不同。)”可知，由于没有事情可做，也没有家庭负担，即生活没有目标，作者开始如坐针毡。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While ageing is an inevitable process, we can get rid of a lot of the rules about what’s age-appropriate. Studying for a master’s degree in old age is a challenge, but it has provided me with a new perspective on life. Hence, ageing should never limit your ambitions. (虽然衰老是一个不可避免的过程，但我们可以摆脱许多关于什么是适合年龄的规则。在年老时攻读硕士学位是一个挑战，但它让我对生活有了新的看法。因此，年龄不应该限制你的抱负。)”可知，面对衰老，作者的建议是人不能因为年老而没有追求，即仍要对生活满怀激情，故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读文章，尤其是由文章第三段“Turning 70 came as something of a shock. I started to feel I was drifting (飘). Without a big project, and without any major family responsibilities, I was starting to feel I was lying on a bed of thorns. Friends of similar age were lapping up their lives, socializing and travelling. However, I longed for something more. Or perhaps not more, but different. (70岁生日的到来让我有些震惊。我开始觉得自己在漂流。没有一个大项目，没有任何主要的家庭责任，我开始觉得自己躺在荆棘的床上。同龄的朋友们享受着他们的生活、社交和旅行。然而，我渴望更多的东西。或许不会更多，但会有所不同。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者七十岁退休以后，因生活没有目标而有危机感。于是，在朋友的建议下，作者决定攻读硕士学位，这对作者克服危机感产生了很大的帮助。选项C“Learning—My Way To Overcome The Ageing Crisis (学习——我克服老龄化危机的方法)”符合题意。故选C。 C What has the size of a soccer ball but can jump from the Statue of Liberty’s feet to her eye level? A new record-setting robot. An engineer at the University of California, Santa Barbara, Elliot Hawkes, has been working on this robot for seven years with his colleagues. “It started out as a stick with weights and rubber bands (橡皮筋)”, he remembers. After years of work, the robot has reached heights of 30 meters, higher than any other jumping robot or living animal. These researchers studied how animals jump. They looked into leaping (跳跃的) frogs, spiders, kangaroos, dogs and more. But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers. “It’s very exciting,” says Cynthia Sung, a roboticist at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia. She was impressed with how high the robot jumped. And getting as high as possible was the main goal here. However, for the robot to be useful, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction. Sung’s team has made its own jumping robot, named REBOund. That robot can’t jump very high. But it can be programmed to jump to any of several different heights. Hawkes’ team is working to add steering to their robot. These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there. A jumper can go to places a robot with wheels can’t. Hawkes’ team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer. 8. Why did the researchers look into how animals jump? A. To draw inspiration for the robot’s appearance. B. To find reasons for their jumping limits. C. To make the robot jump like them. D. To develop new rubber bands 9. What does Cynthia Sung want to show through her words? A. Her REBOund is much better. B. Her REBOund is a big breakthrough. C. Hawkes’ new robot can jump much higher. D. Hawkes’ new robot needs to be more practical. 10. What is Hawkes’ team’s attitude to their robot? A. They seem reserved about it. B. They are doubtful about it. C. They have high hopes for it. D. They are very concerned about it. 11. What is the text mainly about? A. A new way to explore the moon. B. A new method of building robots. C. A new approach to jumping higher. D. A new record-setting leaping robot. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，研究人员研发出一种比任何已知的机器人都跳得更高的机器人。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“These researchers studied how animals jump. They looked into leaping (跳跃的) frogs, spiders, kangaroos, dogs and more. But Hawkes’ group didn’t want to copy any of these animals. Instead, the team learned what features set the limits for animal jumpers. (这些研究人员研究了动物如何跳跃。他们研究了跳跃的青蛙、蜘蛛、袋鼠、狗等等。但霍克斯的团队并不想复制任何一种动物。相反，该团队了解到是什么特征设定了动物跳跃的限制。)”可知，研究人员研究动物如何跳跃式为了找出它们跳跃极限的原因，从而让机器人克服这些障碍。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“However, for the robot to be useful, it will need some improvements. “They don’t have any steering (转向装置) at all,” notes Sung. That means this robot can’t control its jump height or direction. (然而，要使机器人有用，还需要一些改进。Sung指出：“它们根本没有任何转向装置。”这意味着这个机器人不能控制自己的跳跃高度或方向。)”可推知，从Cynthia Sung的话中，我们可以知道霍克斯的新机器人目前实用性不强，还需要改善使其更实用。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Hawkes’ team is working to add steering to their robot. These researchers hope to send their robot to the moon, so they also want to find a way for it to make collections there. A jumper can go to places a robot with wheels can’t. Hawkes’ team is already working with NASA. They hope to turn their robot into a space explorer. (霍克斯的团队正在努力为他们的机器人增加转向功能。这些研究人员希望将他们的机器人送上月球，所以他们也想找到一种方法，让机器人在那里进行收集。跳跃者可以到达有轮子的机器人无法到达的地方。霍克斯的团队已经在与美国宇航局合作。他们希望把他们的机器人变成一个太空探险家。)”可推知，霍克斯团队对这个机器人的将来充满信心。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“After years of work, the robot has reached heights of 30 meters, higher than any other jumping robot or living animal. (经过多年的工作，这个机器人已经达到了30米的高度，比任何其他的跳跃机器人或活的动物都要高。)”并结合全文说明该机器人研究过程及优缺点的介绍可知，本文主要介绍了一种创造跳跃记录的机器人，D选项“一种新的创纪录的跳跃机器人”符合本文大意。故选D。 D Italian diver and gardener Sergio Gamberini decided to see if he could grow vegetables in a plastic balloon underwater. The experiment was a success — so he decided to dive deeper into the world of underwater agriculture. Today, Gamberini is the founder of a company using “biospheres” off the coast of Italy to grow a variety of plants, introducing the world to a new type of agriculture. The company’s six “biospheres” are air-filled plastic balloons about two meters wide. Each is fixed to the seabed by chains so that it sits between 15 and 36 feet below sea level. The biospheres are equipped with cameras and sensors that allow researchers in the company to monitor CO2 levels, humidity, temperature, and more from a control tower on the shoreline. There’s also a device to communicate with divers in the biospheres. Solar panels (太阳能电池板) on the roof of the control tower power the fans that create airflow inside the biospheres, and because the temperature inside and outside the biospheres is consistent, there’s no need to expend energy on the heating or cooling systems needed for traditional greenhouses. The underwater garden doesn’t require pesticides since bugs can’t reach the plants, and though more research is needed, the company notes on its website that the higher-pressure conditions underwater appear to help plants grow more quickly. Even with all the optimization potential offered by technology, Gamberini admits it’s hard to imagine the produce grown in his startup’s biospheres ever competing financially with traditionally grown crops. Still, he hopes the system’s sustainability will be enough to draw customers. 12. What does Gamberini’s company use “biospheres” mainly for? A. Doing scientific research on marine life. B. Creating a habitat for underwater animals. C. Monitoring climate change effects on coastal regions. D. Growing different types of plants through underwater agriculture. 13. How is the temperature maintained inside the biospheres? A. By temperature regulation by divers. B. By advanced heating and cooling systems. C. By natural climate conditions of the underwater environment. D. By solar panels on the roof of the control tower on the shoreline. 14. What can we infer about Gamberini’s company? A. It contributes to climate change. B. It leads to excessive use of pesticides. C. It negatively affects ocean biodiversity. D. It has little negative influence on the environment. 15. What is the topic of the text? A. Growing plants under the sea. B. The creative world of keeping animals. C. Exploring the depths of underwater farming. D. The challenge of growing greens underwater. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了意大利潜水员兼园丁Sergio Gamberini利用“生物圈”开展水下农业，种植多种植物的相关探索与实践。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Today, Gamberini is the founder of a company using ‘biospheres’ off the coast of Italy to grow a variety of plants, introducing the world to a new type of agriculture. (如今，甘贝里尼是一家公司的创始人，该公司利用意大利海岸附近的“生物圈”种植多种植物，向世界介绍了一种新型农业。)”可知，甘贝里尼的公司使用“生物圈”主要是为了通过水下农业种植不同种类的植物。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Solar panels (太阳能电池板) on the roof of the control tower power the fans that create airflow inside the biospheres, and because the temperature inside and outside the biospheres is consistent, there’s no need to expend energy on the heating or cooling systems needed for traditional greenhouses. (控制塔屋顶的太阳能电池板为风扇供电，风扇在生物圈内部产生气流，而且由于生物圈内外的温度是一致的，因此不需要像传统温室那样消耗能量在供暖或制冷系统上。)”可知，生物圈内部的温度是依靠水下环境的自然气候条件维持的，因其内外温度一致，无需额外调节。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“The underwater garden doesn’t require pesticides since bugs can’t reach the plants, and though more research is needed, the company notes on its website that the higher-pressure conditions underwater appear to help plants grow more quickly. (水下花园不需要农药，因为害虫无法接触到植物，而且尽管还需要更多的研究，该公司在其网站上指出，水下的高压环境似乎有助于植物更快地生长。)”可推断，甘贝里尼的公司无需使用农药，因此它对环境几乎没有负面影响。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第一段“Italian diver and gardener Sergio Gamberini decided to see if he could grow vegetables in a plastic balloon underwater. The experiment was a success — so he decided to dive deeper into the world of underwater agriculture. (意大利潜水员兼园丁塞尔吉奥·甘贝里尼决定尝试在水下的塑料气球里种植蔬菜。实验取得了成功——于是他决定更深入地探索水下农业的世界。)”可知，文章围绕甘贝里尼利用“生物圈”探索水下农业展开，介绍了其运作方式、优势及现状。因此“在海底种植植物”是本文的主题。故选A项。 第二节 七选五 (共5小题:每小题2.5分,共12.5分) 根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Regret is a very real reaction to a disappointing event in your life, a choice you made that can’t be changed, something you said that you can’t take back. ____16____ Regret can increase our stress, negatively affect physical health and disturb the balance of our immune systems. ____17____ One is what researchers refer to as the action path and the other is the inaction path. That is, we can regret the things we did or we can regret the things we did not do. Research suggests that action-related regret, although painful, encourages people to learn from their mistakes and move on. ____18____ This kind of regret is more likely to lead to depression and anxiety. As with other negative emotions, it doesn’t work to avoid, deny or try to destroy regret. ____19____ Rather than stay put, people can manage these emotions in four steps: First, accept the fact that you are feeling them; determine why you are feeling them; allow yourself to learn from them: and, finally, release them and move forward. You can help release these feelings of regret by practicing self-compassion (自我同情).This means reminding yourself that you are human, you are doing the best you can and you can learn from past decisions and grow. ____20____ Noticing, acknowledging and then forgiving your thoughts are a powerful step towards overcoming regret. A. Dealing with regret is even more difficult. B. Regret is not only unpleasant, but also unhealthy. C. There are basically two ways to experience regret. D. But regret related to the inaction path is harder to fix. E. Seeing the situation in a different way may help reduce regret. F. In the long run, these strategies only increase negative feelings. G. Showing this compassion to yourself can help you accept and move past the regret. 【答案】16. B 17. C 18. D 19. E 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章通过讲述后悔是会给人们带来心理上和身体上的消极影响的，进而提出了化解或消除后悔的策略。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Regret is a very real reaction to a disappointing event in your life, a choice you made that can’t be changed, something you said that you can’t take back. ”（后悔是对人生中令人失望的事件的真实反应，是你做出的无法改变的选择，是你说过的无法收回的话。）说明了后悔的定义。后文“Regret can increase our stress, negatively affect physical health and disturb the balance of our immune systems.”（后悔会增加我们的压力，对身体健康产生负面影响，扰乱我们免疫系统的平衡。）说明后悔带给身心的负面影响。所以空处应总结说明后悔不但是不愉快的，同时也是不健康的。选项B.“后悔不仅是不愉快的，而且是不健康的。”，后文论述了后悔带来的不健康的影响，符合题意，故选B。 【17题详解】 根据后文“One is what researchers refer to as the action path and the other is the inaction path.”（一种是研究者称之为行动路径，另一种是不行动路径。）可知，空处应该总说有两种不同的方式。选项C.“后悔基本上有两种方式。”符合题意，故选C。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Research suggests that action-related regret, although painful, encourages people to learn from their mistakes and move on.”（研究表明，与行动相关的后悔虽然令人痛苦，却能鼓励人们从错误中吸取教训，继续前进。）讲述了研究者对后悔的方式之一：与行动相关的后悔，进行了分析。根据本段第二句可知，后悔有两种方式，一种是行动路径，另一种是不行动路径，所以空处应该是对比第一种方式，讲述不行动路劲的后悔。选项D.“但与不行动相关的遗憾更难弥补。”，切题，故选D。 【19题详解】 根据前文“As with other negative emotions, it doesn’t work to avoid, deny or try to destroy regret. ”（和其他负面情绪一样，回避、否认或试图消除后悔是不起作用的。）所以空处应承接前文，讲述我们应该换另一种方式来看待问题。选项E.“换个角度看问题可能有助于减少遗憾。”，承接前文，切题，故选E。 【20题详解】 根据前文“You can help release these feelings of regret by practicing self-compassion (自我同情).”（你可以通过练习自我同情来帮助释放这些后悔的感觉。）说明自我同情可以帮助释放后悔的感觉。所以空处应总结论述这样自我同情是可以带给自己好处的。选项G.“对自己表现出这种同情心可以帮助你接受并消除遗憾。”符合题意，故选G。 第三部分语言运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D选出最佳项。 This morning, I went to the shop to buy some things for breakfast.

The boy and his three younger brothers, together with their poor parents, had just moved to the town where Gina lived. When the school presented the boys with the school supply list for all fourth graders, they were upset. They had no money, so they hardly had the supplies required. They only had a few sheets of poor-quality paper and a pencil each. As a result, except Gina, all kids in class made fun of John, who felt so embarrassed and lonely. Gina was sad to see it and felt sorry for John, so she decided to do something. She asked her mother Linda for new pencils, crayons, paper, etc. Without hesitation, Linda agreed. The next morning, Gina got up much earlier than usual. Although Linda found it strange, she didn’t ask too much. When Gina hurried to school, she quickly put her new supplies into John’s desk before other classmates came in. Later, John was amazed and confused to find the supplies. He looked around, but Gina focused on her book, pretending to know nothing. John was disappointed; he failed to find the angel. After class began, other kids in class were also surprised by John’s new supplies and couldn’t laugh at him anymore. After that day, Gina began to come home on a regular basis asking for school supplies. She didn’t tell that she would give them to John, fearing Linda wouldn’t agree with it. And as usual, Linda just dutifully provided whatever she needed, never questioning her. After ongoing requests for items that should have easily lasted a long time, Linda became concerned and asked her, “Gina, what are you doing with your school supplies?” The girl would always respond with an answer that satisfied her. One day, after supplying the same thing only a week earlier, Linda became annoyed with her. 注意: 1.续写词数应为150个左右; 2.请按如下格式作答。 She asked her once more, “Gina! What’s going on with your school supplies?” _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Wanting to know more about John, the next day Linda visited Mrs Melton. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 She asked her once more, “Gina! What’s going on with your school supplies?” Knowing her excuses would no longer work, Gina began to cry. Linda suddenly panicked and thought, “Had Gina been bullied by another child? Was she giving her supplies to the child to keep from being hurt?” Finally, in tears, Gina told her she had given her supplies to John and explained the reason. Linda was surprised, but she hugged Gina and said, “I’m glad you’re willing to help others, but you should have been honest.” Wanting to know more about John, the next day Linda visited Mrs Melton. Linda told Mrs Melton what Gina had said and done. Mrs Melton was touched and congratulated her on having such a thoughtful daughter. Meanwhile, she was proud that she had such a nice student. After the visit, Linda decided to keep offering supplies to John and his brothers. Finally, John thanked Gina very much after knowing the truth, and they also became good friends. Inspired by Gina, the other kids in class eventually treated John friendly, too. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了吉娜的班上来了一个家里贫困的新同学约翰，约翰因为拿不出学生用品，除了吉娜，班上所有的孩子都取笑约翰，约翰感到非常尴尬和孤独。于是吉娜开始定期回家索要学习用品，母亲琳达感到担忧，于是吉娜坦白了真相，琳达一家也决定继续为约翰和他的兄弟们提供物资。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她又问她：‘吉娜!你的学习用品怎么了？’”可知，第一段可描写吉娜坦白真相，解释了原因，得到了母亲的体谅。 ②由第二段首句内容“为了更多地了解约翰，琳达第二天去拜访了梅尔顿夫人”可知，第二段可描写琳达去拜访约翰家，并继续为约翰和他的兄弟们提供物资。 2.续写线索：询问学习用品——吉娜坦白真相——琳达原谅——拜访约翰家——继续提供帮助——约翰得到友善对待 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①解释：explain/illustrate ②决定：decide to/be determined to ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprised/astonished ②高兴：glad/delighted 【点睛】[高分句型1] Knowing her excuses would no longer work, Gina began to cry.
