高一期中模拟测试英语·B卷 答案及解析 第一部分 听力 第一节 1. 答案：B 解析：W: I’m going to the shopping center tomorrow. Would you like to go with me? Lunch is on me. M: Okay, I need a new pair of sports shoes. My old ones are worn out. 2. 答案：C 解析：W: Mark, shall we go mountain climbing this Sunday? M: I need to get ready for Monday’s staff meeting. What about Saturday? W: Okay, the weather in the mountains can change very quickly, so we’d better take some thicker coats along. 3. 答案：A 解析：M: I can’t get this bed upstairs. It’s about twice the size of ours. It won’t fit through the bedroom door. W: Maybe we can take it apart and carry it in sections. M: No, it comes in one piece. 4. 答案：A 解析：W: The printer is out of paper. M: Just ask Sally. She’s in charge of that. W: Today is her day off. I’ll go to the copy shop downstairs to get some paper. M: Okay, thanks. 5. 答案：B 解析：M: Mom, I’m really scared after watching that movie, can I come sleep in your room? W: Take it easy, honey. Why don’t you read a funny story to help you relax before bed? M: Fine. 第二节 6. 答案：B 7. 答案：C 解析：M: I just heard that our office will be moving out of the city center. W: That’s probably because the rent is rising. M: It’s not that. Many employees bought houses in the new eastern part of the city, and now it’s not convenient for them to come downtown. W: What about the others? M: We are allowed to work from home and visit the office only once a week. We can avoid wasting our time getting to and from work. There will be no more annoying traffic jams. I’m on top of the world. W: Really. In that case, I’ll be less efficient. 8. 答案：B 9. 答案：C 10. 答案：A 解析：W: I’d like to go out tonight and the theatre would be a perfect place to visit. M: I’d love to, but we won’t be able to get in, there are lots of people searching for tickets and they’re usually sold out a week in advance. How about checking out the Thai restaurant? Everything is at a discount there and then we can go for a walk in the park. W: Sure, except for the park, there are a few street lights in the park. I’d prefer a brighter place. M: Oh, I’ve got an idea. How about driving out of town for a short trip instead. W: Tonight? That’s too sudden. We can save that for the weekend. Let’s go out for a meal tonight. M: Okay. 11. 答案：A 12. 答案：C 13. 答案：C 解析：M: So it seems like we won’t have a summer break this year. W: Why do you think so? M: Look, we have just started projects with two companies. We don’t know them at all, so it will take us months to get to know them. W: But we’re hiring new people. Haven’t you heard? M: Yes, but I don’t think it will make an immediate difference. W: Actually, you might not know this. Mr. Brown found two experts in our field. They’ll join us right away. M: Well, in that case, I have hope that they can stay here, at least until the holiday season is over. My wife is about to book a family trip this week. I hesitated about it, but now she can go ahead with the arrangement. W: Yeah, fingers crossed. 14. 答案：B 15. 答案：B 16. 答案：C 17. 答案：A 解析：W: Jason, I’m planning to have a birthday party. I heard you celebrated your 50th birthday recently. How was your party going? M: Oh, we kept it small, just family and a few close friends. 20 people at most, how many guests are you planning for? W: It’s going to be quite a big celebration about 100 people. My husband insists that my 40th birthday should be remembered forever. M: In that case, the place we celebrated at won’t work for you. It won’t fit that many guests. It’s an old Italian restaurant on French Street. It offers fair prices, but the largest dining hall can only hold 30 people. W: I see. You’re right. M: I have an idea. My old classmate and good friend, Bill, works in the entertainment business. He always plans some parties for customers. I’m sure he can help. Here is his business card. Tell him that you are my assistant. W: Thanks a lot. I really hope he can arrange some Greek food. M: I’m sure he can. 18. 答案：B 19. 答案：C 20. 答案：A 解析：Good morning everyone. I am presenting the plan for 2025. The main point is our city’s future, our first subway line. It will run from east to west, making travel faster and easier for local people. If everything goes according to plan for 2025 we’ll be able to sign the necessary agreements in the following year. Then construction work on the line is expected to start in 2028. There are many advantages to this plan. The subway will reduce road traffic, which means fewer jams and less pollution. It will also provide a reliable and fast way for everyone to travel across the city. The subway will be a great help for those who work far from home. Of course, there will be some challenges during this process. Some roads will need to be closed but we will provide extra bus services to help people get around. We are working on a plan to reduce trouble as much as possible. This subway line will be an important step in making our city a better place to live. Thank you. 第二部分 阅读理解 第一节 21. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据对Anne Savage的介绍中的“As a result, the International Union for Conservation of Nature changed the classification of cotton-top tamarins from Endangered to Critically Endangered, which brought the species to more people's notice. （因此，国际自然保护联盟将棉顶狨猴的分类从濒危物种转变为极度濒危物种，这使该物种引起了更多的人的注意。）”可知，世界自然保护联盟把棉顶狨猴的濒危等级从濒危改为极度濒危，因此可知，濒危等级的改变引起了更多人对它们的关注。 22. 答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据对Elena Bykova的介绍中的“As Executive Secretary of the Saiga Conservation Alliance, an international organization, Bykova works to save the antelope. Illegal shooting is the single biggest threat, and Bykova concentrates on raising public awareness of the danger, finding alternative livelihood opportunities for local communities, and protecting saiga habitats.（作为国际组织赛加羚羊保护联盟的执行秘书，贝科娃致力于拯救羚羊。非法狩猎是最大的威胁，贝科娃专注于提高公众对危险的认识，为当地社区寻找替代性生计机会，并保护赛加羚羊的栖息地。）”可知，Bykova为当地居民寻找其他谋生机会，以防止他们非法狩猎赛加羚羊。 23. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据对Jeanne Tarrant的介绍中的Frogs are astonishingly diverse and beautiful for Dr. Tarrant. Over the years, she has helped put the spotlight on many highly threatened species of frogs that face extinction due to habitat loss, climate change, and hunts by their animal enemies. （在塔伦特博士看来，青蛙的多样性和美丽程度令人惊讶。多年来，她帮助人们关注了许多高度濒危的青蛙物种，由于栖息地丧失、气候变化和它们的动物敌人的捕猎，这些青蛙面临灭绝。）可知，动物天敌的猎食对一些濒危蛙类造成了巨大威胁；根据对Marilyn Connell的介绍中的“Being hunted by other wildlife is the Mary River turtle's biggest threat.（被其他野生动物猎杀是玛丽河龟最大的威胁。）”可知， 其他野生动物的捕猎是玛丽河龟面临的最大威胁。因此可知，蛙类和玛丽河龟受到其它物种的影响。 24. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“The women's friendship began over 20 years ago on a medical trip in Zambia, Africa.（这两位女士的友谊始于20多年前在非洲赞比亚的一次医疗旅行。）”可知，是一次医疗旅行让两人首次相遇。故选D项。 25. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“The most interesting — or unforgettable parts aren't about the places, but about the people we met along the journey.（最有趣、最难忘的不是那些地方，而是我们在旅途中遇到的人。）”可知，旅途中遇到的人让她们的旅程最难忘。故选A项。 26. 答案：D 解析：词句猜测题。根据第四段“Hamby and Hazelip said they had no idea their travels would turn them into social-media sensations, but they now get recognized in airports after a video on the Internet has received over 6 million views.（Hamby和Hazelip 表示，他们不知道自己的旅行会让他们在社交媒体上sensations，但在一段网络视频获得超过600万次观看后，她们现在在机场会被认出来。）”可知，她们因网络视频走红，成为社交媒体上广为人知的人，故sensations意为“广受关注的人”。故选D项。 27. 答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“Ellie Hamby and Dr. Sandy Hazelip, both 84 and from Texas, have proven that adventure knows no age limit.（Ellie Hamby和Sandy Hazelip博士均为84岁，来自得克萨斯州，她们用行动证明，冒险无关年龄界限。）”及最后一段“Get up out of your easy chair, step out of your comfort zone, make a plan and live.（从舒适的椅子上站起来，走出舒适区，制订计划，好好生活。）”可知，两人认为年龄不是阻碍，反而能成为开启新体验、实现成长的机会。故选B项。 28. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“First, climate change has led to an increase in extreme weather events, such as heavy rainfall and storms, which are major contributors to city flooding.（首先，气候变化导致极端天气事件增加，如暴雨和风暴，这是城市洪水的主要原因。）”可知，全球变暖引起的极端天气使城市洪水更有可能发生。故选D项。 29. 答案：A 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Green buildings, such as green roofs and parks, can play a key role in reducing city flooding. They help to reduce runoff, make water cleaner, and increase different kinds of plants and animals.(绿色建筑，如绿色屋顶和公园，可以在减少城市洪水方面发挥关键作用。它们有助于减少径流，使水更清洁，并增加不同种类的植物和动物。)”可知，绿色建筑通过减少雨水径流来帮助应对城市洪水。故选A项。 30. 答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段“City flooding is a complex issue that requires a full understanding of its causes, results, and solving strategies. By using green building, making drainage systems better, and following city planning strategies, we can reduce the risk of city flooding and create stronger and more long-lasting cities.（城市洪水是一个复杂的问题，需要全面了解其成因、结果和解决策略。通过使用绿色建筑、改善排水系统和遵循城市规划策略，我们可以降低城市洪水的风险，创造更强大、更持久的城市。）”可知，综合措施有助于降低城市洪水风险。故选C项。 31. 答案：B 解析：主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中的“City flooding is a growing concern worldwide, affecting millions of people and causing great economic losses. As the world deals with climate (气候) change, city growth, and system challenges, understanding the complexities (复杂性) of city flooding is very important.（城市洪水是全球日益关注的问题，影响着数百万人，并造成巨大的经济损失。随着世界应对气候变化、城市发展和系统挑战，了解城市洪水的复杂性非常重要。）”以及第四段中的“Reducing city flooding needs a many-sided plan that uses green building, better drainage systems, and city planning strategies.（减少城市洪水需要一个多方面的计划，包括使用绿色建筑、更好的排水系统和城市规划策略。）”可知，本文主要介绍了城市洪水的成因、影响以及应对策略，B项“用解决方案对抗城市洪水”符合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 32. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“For decades, scientists firmly believed one thing: once any material crosses a black hole's ‘cosmic boundary’ — the point of no return — it will be trapped forever. （几十年来，科学家们一直坚信一件事：一旦任何物质越过黑洞的“宇宙边界”——这个有去无回的临界点，就会被永远困住）”可知，传统观点认为黑洞不会放走任何越过特定区域的物质。故选D项。 33.答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, what happened next shocked the researchers. Three years after the star was broken into pieces, the black hole suddenly sent out a large amount of hot gas, the weight of which was the same as that of 100,000 Earths.（然而，接下来发生的事情让研究人员感到震惊。在恒星被撕碎三年后，这个黑洞突然喷出了大量的炽热气体，其重量相当于十万个地球）”可知，“潮汐瓦解”之后出乎意料的事是黑洞喷出了大量本应被困住的炽热气体。故选B项。 34.答案：B 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段Black holes have long been known as cosmic (宇宙的) “monsters” that take in everything in their path, including light. For decades, scientists firmly believed one thing: once any material crosses a black hole's “cosmic boundary” — the point of no return — it will be trapped forever.（长期以来，黑洞都被称作宇宙中的“巨兽”，会吞噬其行进路径上的一切物质，包括光线。数十年来，科学家们一直坚信一件事：一旦任何物质越过黑洞的“宇宙边界”——这个有去无回的临界点，就会被永远困住。）可知，传统观点认为 “物质越过边界会被永远困住”，结合第二段 However, what happened next shocked the researchers. Three years after the star was broken into pieces, the black hole suddenly sent out a large amount of hot gas, the weight of which was the same as that of 100,000 Earths. This “burp” of material, which should have been trapped forever, has left scientists confused.（然而，接下来发生的事情让研究人员大为震惊。这颗恒星被撕碎三年后，这个黑洞突然喷射出大量炽热气体，其重量相当于十万个地球的总和。这些本该被永远困在黑洞里的物质此番“喷涌”，让科学家们困惑不已。）可知，研究发现黑洞吞噬恒星后会喷出大量物质，再结合最后一段中的“Black holes are no longer just objects that take in everything,” Dr. Rodriguez said.（“黑洞不再只是一味吞噬万物的天体。”罗德里格斯博士说。）可知，黑洞比人们曾经认为的更加活跃。故选B项。 35.答案：C 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“They are ever changing systems that can surprise us, and each surprise brings us closer to understanding the extreme space physics and the basic laws of the universe.（它们是不断变化的系统，总能给我们带来惊喜，而每一次惊喜都让我们更接近理解极端空间物理和宇宙的基本规律）”可知，罗德里格斯博士认为新发现能推动对宇宙的认知，态度是兴奋的。故选C项。 第二节 36-40. 答案：BFCGE 解析：36. 根据前文“Upon reflection of the ideal social moral code (准则) within one sentence, it would be: be constructive (建设性的), not destructive (毁坏性的).(用一句话来反映理想的社会道德准则，应该是：建设性的，而不是破坏性的)”以及后文“Sometimes it is difficult to determine if an act is exactly constructive or destructive.(有时很难确定一个行为究竟是建设性的还是破坏性的)”可知，前句讲述一个理想的社会道德准则，后句讲述有时很难确定一个行为的性质，所以空处应是过渡句，B项“Though it sounds sensible, there are many troubles.(虽然这听起来很明智，但有很多麻烦)”符合文意，承接上文，引出下文。故选B项。 37. 根据前文“One problem is that a behaviour can be both constructive and destructive to different degrees.(一个问题是，一种行为可能在不同程度上既有建设性，也有破坏性)”以及后文“You get a thought in your mind to spank (打屁股) him as a punishment. However, you start to feel confused. It might show him that not listening to you and breaking things is not welcome, but on the other hand, spanking him will hurt him physically and perhaps teach him to use force in situations later in life.(你脑子里想要打他屁股掌作为惩罚。然而，你开始感到困惑。这可能会让他知道不听你的话，弄坏东西是不受欢迎的，但另一方面，打他会伤害他的身体，也许会教会他在以后的生活中使用武力)”可知，前文提出本段主题，后面在举例详细说明，但是没给出孩子犯了什么错，所以空处应是孩子犯了什么错，F项“Say your son broke a glass vase after being warned several times.(假设你的儿子在被警告了几次之后打破了一个玻璃花瓶)”符合文意。故选F项。 38. 根据前文“You get a thought in your mind to spank (打屁股) him as a punishment. However, you start to feel confused. It might show him that not listening to you and breaking things is not welcome, but on the other hand, spanking him will hurt him physically and perhaps teach him to use force in situations later in life.(你脑子里想要打他屁股掌作为惩罚。然而，你开始感到困惑。这可能会让他知道不听你的话，弄坏东西是不受欢迎的，但另一方面，打他会伤害他的身体，也许会教会他在以后的生活中使用武力)”可知，C项“There is no exact wrong or right in these moments.(在这些时刻没有绝对的对错之分)”是对前文例子的总结，且和后文“However, through your own reasoning, you can decide to what degree it would be beneficial or harmful to him and the situation at hand.(然而，通过你自己的推理，你可以决定在多大程度上对他和手头的情况有益或有害)”构成转折关系，符合文意。故选C项。 39. 分析设空，位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“For example, for some people, construction can never involve violence, while for others, it could even be an unavoidable part. Take the example of killing Hitler. Killing someone is definitely termed a destructive act. However, in light of the circumstances, I would assume that the majority of people would agree that killing Hitler would be seen as a constructive act. Therefore, our definitions often determine our values.(例如，对一些人来说，建筑永远不会涉及暴力，而对另一些人来说，它甚至可能是不可避免的一部分。以杀死希特勒为例。杀人绝对被称为破坏性行为。然而，鉴于这种情况，我认为大多数人会同意，杀死希特勒将被视为一种建设性的行为。因此，我们的定义往往决定了我们的价值观)”可知，本段主要讲述了一个行为的性质，取决于我们的定义，所以G项“Another trouble to consider is the definition we give to construction and destruction.(另一个需要考虑的问题是我们对建设和破坏的定义)”符合文意，为本段中心句，其中definition为同词复现。故选G项。 40. 根据前文“Additionally, construction can be seen as good to some, and bad to others. What a majority might take as constructive might be seen as destructive to a minority. Is there a way to determine which side is correct? It is almost impossible.(此外，建设性行为对一些人来说是好事，对另一些人来说是坏事。多数人认为是建设性的东西，对少数人来说可能是破坏性的。有没有办法确定哪一方是正确的?这几乎是不可能的)”可知，前句提出问题，给出了直接回答，空处应是对其进一步解释，所以E项“Being in the majority does not mean it is correct, or more proper.(占多数并不意味着它是正确的，或更适当的)”符合文意。故选E项。 第三部分 语言知识运用 第一节 41. 答案：B 解析：考查名词词义辨析。句意：老年人被留在社区里，承受着巨大的孤独，而孩子们却被屏幕所吸引。A. pressure压力；B. loneliness孤独；C. honor荣誉；D. silence沉默。根据前文“In an increasingly digital world, there is a widening gap between generations.”和后文“With her own grandchildren living far away, Haqiqah found the children’s laughter and liveliness quietly _____ a part of her life that she hadn’t realized was so empty.”可知，代际隔阂让老人感到孤独。故选B项。 42. 答案：A 解析：考查动词词义辨析。句意：意识到这一隔阂，当地一家社区中心创办了代际夏令营。A.

Last week, our class held a meeting with the theme “Act Now to Save Our Dying Dialects.” We first watched interesting videos about different dialects. Then we had a heated discussion on why they are disappearing and how to protect them. Some students shared experiences of speaking dialects with their grandparents. I was deeply moved. Dialects are not only a way of speaking, but they also carry the history and culture of a region. We should all take action to save them. What do you think? Looking forward to your sharing. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 答案： Learning about the dolphins, Green Matters took action at once. They worked hard to help them. They talked to the hotel to free Johnny, Rocky and Rambo, sent them to a safe coastal center and brought in animal experts to teach them how to find food on their own and swim freely again. Caregivers spent hours with them every day, letting the dolphins play and bond with each other, just like they would in the wild. Slowly, the dolphins put on weight, their anxiety faded, and they started to show joy — all ready for the day they could return to the sea. The day for the dolphins to go back to the sea finally came. The team from Green Matters took the dolphins to a quiet coastal area and gently guided them into the water, where the blue sea stretched endlessly. As soon as they touched the water, the three dolphins swam forward excitedly, leaping high to celebrate their freedom. Their story spread quickly, making more people refuse animal shows. It proves that every creature deserves a natural life, and when we stand up for animals, we’re not just saving them — we’re protecting the beauty and balance of the world we all share. 英语·B卷答案 第 1 页 共 16 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一期中模拟测试 英语·B卷 分值：150 分 时间：120 分钟 第一部分 听力（共两节，共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。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.

She pioneered in the development of new technologies to study the animal in the Colombian forest. She also helped conduct a study that found only 7,500 individuals remained. As a result, the International Union for Conservation of Nature changed the classification of cotton-top tamarins from Endangered to Critically Endangered, which brought the species to more people’s notice. Elena Bykova Having majored in biology, Bykova has a good knowledge of the saiga antelope (赛加羚羊). As Executive Secretary of the Saiga Conservation Alliance, an international organization, Bykova works to save the antelope. Illegal shooting is the single biggest threat, and Bykova concentrates on raising public awareness of the danger, finding alternative livelihood opportunities for local communities, and protecting saiga habitats. Jeanne Tarrant Frogs are astonishingly diverse and beautiful for Dr. Tarrant. Over the years, she has helped put the spotlight on many highly threatened species of frogs that face extinction due to habitat loss, climate change, and hunts by their animal enemies. No wonder she is called the “Frog Lady” of South Africa! Marilyn Connell Living only in the Mary River of Queensland, the Mary River turtle (龟) takes in oxygen in two ways. Being hunted by other wildlife is the Mary River turtle’s biggest threat. Connell and her team investigate the threats to the species and take measures to protect the eggs and newborns from being hunted, ensuring the species has a chance to survive. 21. What made cotton-top tamarins get more attention? A. Dr. Savage’s conservation program. B. The adjustment to their risk category. C. Research into cotton-top tamarins. D. The development of new technologies. 22. What does Elena Bykova do to protect the saiga antelope? A. She founds an international organization. B. She chooses biology as her main subject of study. C. She provides ways for locals to make a living. D. She fights against the behavior of illegal shooting. 23. What affects the survival of both frogs and the Mary River turtles? A. Changes to living habits. B. Threats from other species. C. Loss of their habitat. D. Difficulty in raising newborns. B Ellie Hamby and Dr. Sandy Hazelip, both 84 and from Texas, have proven that adventure knows no age limit. They shared their journey together and what they have learned from the world at over 80 years old on the Internet — and, more importantly, how they made it happen. The women’s friendship began over 20 years ago on a medical trip in Zambia, Africa. Later on in Texas, both women found themselves like traveling around the world. So the pair started their adventures together to “far-flung (遥远的) places” two decades ago, but it was their latest, most ambitious trip that brought them to the world’s attention. They planned to travel around the world in 80 days at the age of 80. The global adventure has taken them nearly everywhere. “We’ve been to all seven continents (洲), most of the world’s wonders and to almost 50 countries,” Hamby said. “The most interesting or unforgettable parts aren’t about the places, but about the people we met along the journey. And of course, our journeys have not been without moments of excitement, including a trip on the Trans-Siberian Railway in 2011.” Hamby and Hazelip said they had no idea their travels would turn them into social-media sensations, but they now get recognized in airports after a video on the Internet has received over 6 million views. Now they have realized the joy and inspiration they have provided for others, they are pleased to share their message of friendship and adventure. For those who may feel it is too late to live out their dreams, Hamby and Hazelip offered a powerful final message: “Get up out of your easy chair, step out of your comfort zone, make a plan and live.” They even penned a new book, Here We Go — Lessons for Living Fearlessly From Two Traveling Nanas, serving as a road map to live fully, no matter what your age. 24. What brought the pair together for the first time? A. A travel club. B. An interstate flight. C. A rescue program. D. A medical journey. 25. Which of the following made the pair’s journeys most memorable? A. The people they came across. B. The railway ride they experienced. C. The famous wonders they saw. D. The number of countries they visited. 26. What does the underlined word “sensations” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Harmful public events. B. Interesting music symbols. C. Funny cultural exchanges. D. Widely talked-about persons. 27. What can be inferred about the pair’s views on aging? A. They see it as a reason for increased care. B. They regard it as a chance for new growth. C. They view it as a key to their adventure. D. They take it as a signal to slow life’s pace. C City flooding is a growing concern worldwide, affecting millions of people and causing great economic losses. As the world deals with climate (气候) change, city growth, and system challenges, understanding the complexities (复杂性) of city flooding is very important. City flooding is a difficult issue, resulting from a mix of factors. The main causes can be put into three groups: First, climate change has led to an increase in extreme weather events, such as heavy rainfall and storms, which are major contributors to city flooding. Second, urbanization and land use changes are great contributors to city flooding. Cities are growing very quickly. This often means that natural animal and plant homes are destroyed, and are taken the place of by hard surfaces such as roads and buildings, which increase the amount of runoff (径流) during rainfall events. Poor drainage (排水) systems are the last key factor. City flooding has serious results for communities, economies, and the environment. The results can be put into three main areas: people leaving their homes and losing their belongings, economic effects on businesses and systems, and health risks from water-related sicknesses. Reducing city flooding needs a many-sided plan that uses green building, better drainage systems, and city planning strategies. Green buildings, such as green roofs and parks, can play a key role in reducing city flooding. They help to reduce runoff, make water cleaner, and increase different kinds of plants and animals. Making drainage systems and flood protection better is very important for reducing city flooding. This can be achieved by improving old systems, using new technologies, and following flood-strong building ideas. City planning strategies can also play a key role in reducing city flooding. This can be achieved by using flood-risk maps, following flood- strong land use rules, and promoting flood-aware building ideas. City flooding is a complex issue that requires a full understanding of its causes, results, and solving strategies. By using green building, making drainage systems better, and following city planning strategies, we can reduce the risk of city flooding and create stronger and more long-lasting cities. 28. What makes city flooding more likely to happen according to the text? A. The absence of emergency systems. B. Not enough green spaces in rural areas. C. Too many buildings and parks in cities. D. Extreme weather caused by global warming. 29. How can green building help with city flooding? A. By decreasing rainwater runoff. B. By improving drainage systems. C. By making full use of city space. D. By building higher walls along rivers. 30. What can we learn from the last paragraph? A. Learning flood causes is the first task. B. Common efforts can make cities better. C. Mixed measures help reduce city flood risks. D. The future of dealing with floods is challenging. 31. What is the best title for the text? A. Exploring the Effects of City Flooding B. Fighting City Floods with Solutions C. How City Floods Threaten Our Cities D. How Cities Grow and Nature Fights Back D Black holes have long been known as cosmic (宇宙的) “monsters” that take in everything in their path, including light. For decades, scientists firmly believed one thing: once any material crosses a black hole’s “cosmic boundary” — the point of no return — it will be trapped forever. But recent astronomical observations (天文观测) have found a surprising fact that goes against this idea: some huge black holes “burp” (打嗝) after taking in stars, throwing out large amounts of material they had already eaten. A team of astronomers led by Dr. Elena Rodriguez from the European Space Agency made this discovery while watching a huge black hole 800 million light-years from Earth. In 2021, the black hole tore apart a star that got too close, a process scientists call “tidal disruption”. At the same time, most of the star’s gas and dust forms a spinning (旋转的) circle around the black hole, while a small part of it is thrown into space. Until recently, scientists thought this was the end of the star’s journey. However, what happened next shocked the researchers. Three years after the star was broken into pieces, the black hole suddenly sent out a large amount of hot gas, the weight of which was the same as that of 100,000 Earths. This “burp” of material, which should have been trapped forever, has left scientists confused. Dr. Rodriguez’s team offered two possible reasons. One is that the circling gas and dust around the black hole becomes unstable over time, pushing some material out. The other is that the black hole’s moving speed slows suddenly, releasing energy to drive the material out. More observations are planned. The team will keep watching more black holes that have recently torn apart stars, hoping to see more “burps” and collect data to test their theories. “Black holes are no longer just objects that take in everything,” Dr. Rodriguez said. “They are ever-changing systems that can surprise us, and each surprise brings us closer to understanding the extreme space physics and the basic laws of the universe.” 32. What is the traditional view of black holes? A. They are monsters always taking in light. B. They can burp out what they took in before. C. They can trap any material that gets close to them. D. They never let go of material crossing a certain area. 33. What happened unexpectedly after “tidal disruption” in Paragraph 2? A. A star got close to be torn apart by the black hole. B. The black hole shot out much trapped hot gas. C. The black hole’s speed slowed down suddenly. D. The black hole released material circling around it. 34. What can we infer from the passage? A. Black holes can always bring us surprise. B. Black holes are more active than once thought. C. More researches will be carried out to study the universe. D. Scientists have a complete understanding of black holes. 35. What is Dr. Rodriguez’s attitude towards the new discovery about black holes? A. Doubtful. B. Indifferent. C. Excited. D. Critical. 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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Upon reflection of the ideal social moral code (准则) within one sentence, it would be: be constructive (建设性的), not destructive (毁坏性的). 36._________ Sometimes it is difficult to determine if an act is exactly constructive or destructive. One problem is that a behaviour can be both constructive and destructive to different degrees. 37._________ You get a thought in your mind to spank (打屁股) him as a punishment. However, you start to feel confused. It might show him that not listening to you and breaking things is not welcome, but on the other hand, spanking him will hurt him physically and perhaps teach him to use force in situations later in life. 38._________ However, through your own reasoning, you can decide to what degree it would be beneficial or harmful to him and the situation at hand. 39._________ For example, for some people, construction can never involve violence, while for others, it could even be an unavoidable part. Take the example of killing Hitler. Killing someone is definitely termed a destructive act. However, in light of the circumstances, I would assume that the majority of people would agree that killing Hitler would be seen as a constructive act. Therefore, our definitions often determine our values. Additionally, construction can be seen as good to some, and bad to others. What a majority might take as constructive might be seen as destructive to a minority. Is there a way to determine which side is correct? It is almost impossible. 40._________ Many examples in history have proved this. Though I consider “Be constructive, not destructive” the most solid one-sentence social moral code, it is not without its challenges. However, I cannot imagine a better code in a social context. A. It is a handy and universal policy. B. Though it sounds sensible, there are many troubles. C. There is no exact wrong or right in these moments. D. Other times it is difficult to disagree with the majority. E. Being in the majority does not mean it is correct, or more proper. F. Say your son broke a glass vase after being warned several times. G. Another trouble to consider is the definition we give to construction and destruction. 第三部分 语言知识运用 （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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In an increasingly digital world, there is a widening gap between generations.

More and more people think these shows do great harm to the animals, so they are paying more attention to the lives of wild animals back in nature that used to be caught and kept just for performances. Green Matters, a group that cares about animals, thinks it’s important to let people care about these animals returning to the wild. So it tells a warm and touching story about three former performing dolphins: Johnny, Rocky and Rambo. The story mainly describes their happy and free days after they go back to the open sea. When the three dolphins were performers, their lives were really terrible. They were kept in small tanks that were no bigger than small swimming pools. First, they lived in a mobile circus (马戏团), touring around the country. Later, they were even sent to a hotel to perform for guests. These gentle animals were always hungry, because the trainers kept them that way so they would follow orders when they had to do tricks like jumping for the crowds. The trapped dolphins also lost the chance to socialize with other dolphins. They spent 90 percent of their time on the water surface, waiting for orders. But wild dolphins spend most of their time underwater, swimming and searching for food freely. What’s worse, the trapped dolphins were made to do tricks every day, with no rest. All the three were too thin because they were not well-fed, and they often felt anxious and sad. As is known to all, dolphins can only be themselves fully in the ocean. There, they can make friends with other dolphins, explore the big and blue ocean, play games for fun and live without fear of being forced to perform. The three dolphins — who were once caught from the wild when they were young — spent three whole years living a terrible life. 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。 Paragraph 1: Learning about the dolphins, Green Matters took action at once. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: The day for the dolphins to go back to the sea finally came. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 英语·B卷 第 1 页 共 16 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。I'm going to the shopping center tomorrow.
