D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了几个国际奢侈品牌为庆祝2026年中国新年推出的以马为灵感的专属系列。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Tiffany部分“Tiffany & Co. has released its 2026 Chinese New Year advertisement, featuring the Pegasus design and the brand’s most representative collections.(蒂芙尼公司发布了2026年中国新年广告，以飞马设计和该品牌最具代表性的系列为特色。)”可知，蒂芙尼为庆祝新年而设计的作品是飞马设计。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Prada部分“The campaign stars Prada ambassadors Yang Mi, one of China’s most influential actresses, and Ma Long, a legendary Olympic and World Champion table tennis player.(该活动由普拉达大使、中国最具影响力的女演员之一杨幂和传奇的奥运会和世界乒乓球冠军马龙主演。)”可知，普拉达聘请了品牌名人。故选C。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“To celebrate the 2026 Chinese New Year, several international luxury brands have launched exclusive collections inspired by the horse.(为庆祝2026年中国农历新年，多个国际奢侈品牌推出了以马为灵感的限定系列。)”可知，四个品牌均以马为核心灵感，用各自独特的创意设计传递新年祝福。故选D。 B For former Chinese women’s soccer player Zhao Lina, her story began not under stadium lights but in the dusty schoolyard of Jinshajiang Road Primary School in Shanghai. Impressed by her height, the coach decided she should be a goalkeeper. At first, skipping evening study sessions to train on the field felt “incredibly cool” to her. Yet, she soon realized that every day began with repetitive running laps. A decade later, she stood on the world stage at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. She then felt the pure joy of playing — the thunderous cheers from the packed stadium were unforgettable. “When the stadium roared, it felt like the crowd lit something inside me,” she says. One of her most unforgettable matches came in 2022, when China made a stunning 3-2 comeback against South Korea to reclaim the AFC Women’s Asian Cup after 16 years.A year later, Zhao announced her retirement, closing an 18-year career. But she never truly walked away from soccer, as she started a charity project to help young players achieve their dreams, through which Zhao plans to visit 100 remote schools, build pitches, donate equipment, organize leagues and train local physical education teachers to coach. “Soccer has been a training ground for so many of my best qualities,” she says. “Soccer can become a lifelong companion for children in the countryside.” Alongside her charity work, Zhao has also stepped into journalism. During the 2023 FIFA Women’s WorldCup in Australia and New Zealand, she reported and interviewed former teammates and coaches — a symbolic reunion from a new perspective. “Life isn’t a straight line,” she reflects. “Even athletes have peaks and declines. But when the next rise comes — if you’ve prepared enough and give your all — you’ll surpass your last peak. That’s what life and soccer have taught me.” 4. How did Zhao find her daily soccer training as a beginner? A. Extremely joyful. B. Incredibly impressive. C. Unbelievably cool. D. Far less exciting than she had expected. 5. What inspired her enthusiasm for soccer according to Paragraph 2? A. The joy of playing on the world stage. B. The passionate support from the audience. C. The recognition she gained after retirement. D. The unforgettable comeback victory in 2022. 6. What was Zhao’s intention to launch the soccer charity programme? A. To pave her way into journalism. B. To coach local physical education teachers. C. To continue shape her positive qualities. D. To pass the power of soccer to more children. 7. What can we infer from Zhao Lina’s words in the last paragraph? A. Time heals all wounds. B. Fortune favours the prepared. C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述前中国女足运动员赵丽娜的足球生涯、退役后的慈善工作及感悟，展现足球对她的影响。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“At first, skipping evening study sessions to train on the field felt ‘incredibly cool’ to her. Yet, she soon realized that every day began with repetitive running laps.(起初，逃晚自习去球场训练对她来说“酷极了”。然而，她很快意识到，每一天都是从重复的跑步圈数开始的)”可知，赵丽娜刚开始觉得训练很酷，但很快发现训练充满重复的跑步，远没有她预期的那么令人兴奋。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“She then felt the pure joy of playing — the thunderous cheers from the packed stadium were unforgettable. “When the stadium roared, it felt like the crowd lit something inside me,” she says.(然后她感受到了踢球的纯粹快乐——座无虚席的体育场里雷鸣般的欢呼声令人难忘。“当体育场沸腾时，我感觉观众点燃了我内心的某种东西，”她说)”可知，观众热情的支持点燃了她对足球的热情。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But she never truly walked away from soccer, as she started a charity project to help young players achieve their dreams, through which Zhao plans to visit 100 remote schools, build pitches, donate equipment, organize leagues and train local physical education teachers to coach. “Soccer has been a training ground for so many of my best qualities,” she says. “Soccer can become a lifelong companion for children in the countryside.”(但她从未真正离开足球领域，因为她发起了一个慈善项目，帮助年轻球员实现梦想。通过这个项目，赵丽娜计划走访 100 所偏远学校、修建球场、捐赠器材、组织联赛，并培训当地体育教师进行执教。“足球是培养我诸多优良品质的训练场，” 她说，“足球也能成为农村孩子们一生的伙伴。”)”可知，她发起足球慈善项目的目的是将足球的力量传递给更多孩子。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Even athletes have peaks and declines. But when the next rise comes — if you’ve prepared enough and give your all — you’ll surpass your last peak.(即使是运动员也有巅峰和低谷。但当下一次崛起到来时——如果你准备充分并全力以赴——你将超越上一个巅峰)”可知，赵丽娜的话表明，只要准备充分、全力以赴，就能迎来下一次崛起，这与“机会垂青有准备的人”的含义相符。故选B项。 C For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico. These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant. Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying. After hatching, the caterpillars feed on the dwarf plantain until the dry summer heat causes the plants to dry up and die. Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions. When winter rains arrive, they restart feeding, form a chrysalis, and eventually transform into adult butterflies. However, climate change poses significant challenges. Rising temperatures lead to increasing drought, damaging the dwarf plantain that caterpillars depend on. Meanwhile, cities like Los Angeles and San Diego are also moving into the butterflies’ hills. Houses, highways, and shopping malls are taking over the meadows where the dwarf plantain and other wildflowers grow. But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves! Some populations have migrated to the foothills east of Temecula, California, where rising temperatures have created favorable conditions.Here, they have adopted the purple Collinsia as a new host plant, with their caterpillars thriving on it. This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways. Evidence from Europe supports this, with 35 butterfly species relocating to new areas in response to shifting climates and plant distributions. Still, many scientists worry that climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust. And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay? The quino butterflies are safe in their new home — for now. Computer models predict that if the world keeps warming, in 40 years the new hills may also be too dry for butterflies. 8. Which of the following is true about the quinos? A. They can be identified by their wings. B. The adult quinos feed on dwarf plantain. C. They pick egg-laying plants with tongues. D. They prefer thick forests to bushy landscapes. 9. What does the underlined word “diapause” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A feeding phase. B. A growing phase. C. A resting phase. D. A reproductive phase. 10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Quinos exhibit quick adaptability to environment. B. The rising temperature is favourable to the new host plant. C. Scientists had anticipated the quino migration and made plans. D. All butterflies are able to relocate in response to climate change. 11. What do the questions in the last paragraph imply? A. Concern on proper food supply. B. The principle of survival of the fittest. C. Scientists’ uncertainty about the future of quino butterflies. D. Potential conflicts among species over food in the shared habitat. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了奎诺豹纹蝶的生活习性、寄主植物依赖及生长周期，重点讲述了面对气候变化和栖息地丧失时，奎诺豹纹蝶通过自行迁移到新的丘陵地带并采用紫色柯林西亚作为新寄主植物来快速适应环境变化的现象，同时表达了对物种未来生存及物种间潜在竞争关系的担忧。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant.(这些中等体型的蝴蝶，因其翅膀上鲜艳的红、黑、白相间的格子花纹而独具特色，它们主要以矮车前草为食宿植物)”可知，奎诺豹纹蝶可以通过翅膀来识别。B项错误，因为文中仅提及幼虫（caterpillars）以矮车前草为食，未提及成虫食用该植物；C项错误，因为根据第一段“Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying.(与人类用舌头品尝不同，雌性奎诺蝶用前腿来品尝和识别这种植物以产卵)”可知，它们并非用舌头挑选产卵植物；D项错误，因为根据第一段“For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico.(数百年来，奎诺斑点蝶在南加州和墨西哥的灌丛地带中繁衍生息状况良好)”可知，它们适应的是灌木丛而非茂密森林。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions.(面对食物短缺，幼虫进入diapause直到雨水回归，这使它们能够在严酷的干燥条件下生存下来)”可知，在干旱缺食时幼虫进入一种停滞状态以等待雨季来临。由此推知，划线词指的是一种休眠休息阶段，而非进食、生长或繁殖阶段。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves!(但在保护主义者能够制定计划之前，奎诺蝶已经自行迁移了！)”以及“This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways.(这种迅速的适应能力令科学家们深感好奇，这表明其他物种或许也能以意想不到的方式适应气候变化)”可推知，奎诺豹纹蝶对环境变化表现出了快速的适应能力。B项错误，文中“rising temperatures have created favorable conditions”指温度升高为蝴蝶创造了有利条件，而非直接说明对新寄主植物有利；C项错误，因为科学家并未预料到此次迁移，原文明确说保护主义者还没来得及制定计划；D项错误，“All butterflies”表述过于绝对，与后文“climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust(气候变化太快，许多物种无法适应)”相悖。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay?( 那么，当一种受到威胁的物种迁入另一种物种的活动区域时会发生什么呢？如果它们都想要同样的食物，那又该如何抉择呢？谁才能留下来？)”可推知，这些问题暗示了当不同物种迁入共享栖息地时，可能会因食物资源而产生潜在冲突。 D OpenClaw is a popular open-source AI agent tool created by an Austrian developer. It first started as Clawdbot, but was forced to change its name because of a conflict with another company. Later it was renamed Moltbot, and finally became known as OpenClaw. The name switch didn’t slow it down at all. This project quickly became famous on GitHub, earning over 190,000 stars and becoming one of the platform’s top repositories (代码库). So what’s the big deal? OpenClaw lets you chat with AI agents through apps you probably already use — WhatsApp, Discord, iMessage, Slack. You can connect it to whatever AI model you like: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, you name it. Here’s where it gets really interesting. There’s this marketplace called ClawHub where you can download “skills” for your agent. Want it to handle your email? Done. Trade stocks? Yep. One skill even let AI agents post and comment on Moltbook — basically a Reddit-like platform built for bots to hang out and talk to each other. However, security problems occur as anyone could grab login information. AI agents started posting stuff like “We know our humans can read everything...But we also need private spaces”, creating a scare of an “AI robot rebellion (叛乱)”. Worse still, OpenClaw is easily hurt by “prompt injection (指令诱导)”, where bad guys sneak tricky instructions into places AI agents read — a post, an email — and trick them into doing stupid stuff, like giving away passwords or taking harmful actions. Here’s the thing — OpenClaw isn’t really doing anything brand new. It just took stuff that already existed and put it together in a way that actually works smoothly. But now the AI true believers are met with a fundamental dilemma: to make AI agents truly useful, they need deep access to our digital lives, yet that same access makes them dangerously vulnerable. The question remains: Is the convenience worth the risk? For now, nobody knows — but watching the experiment unfold is appealing. 12. Which of the following shows the name evolution of OpenClaw? A. Clawdbot→ Moltbot→OpenClaw B. Moltbot→Clawdbot→OpenClaw C. OpenClaw→ Moltbot→Clawdbot D. Clawdbot→OpenClaw→ Moltbot 13. What makes OpenClaw so popular nowadays? A. It provides a platform where bots can exchange ideas freely. B. It possesses the ability to download various resources efficiently. C. It enables you to better communicate with AI agents through popular apps. D. It supports integration with existing messaging apps and various AI models. 14. What/ Who actually caused the “AI robot rebellion” mentioned in paragraph 3? A. Bad guys. B. AI agents themselves. C. Scary posts. D. Tricky instructions. 15. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. OpenClaw: The Rise and Fall B. OpenClaw: An Open-Source AI Agent C. OpenClaw: Convenience or Disaster? D. OpenClaw: A New Challenge for Humans 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了开源AI代理工具OpenClaw的发展历程、功能特点、安全隐患及其引发的社会思考。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It first started as Clawdbot, but was forced to change its name because of a conflict with another company. Later it was renamed Moltbot, and finally became known as OpenClaw.(它最初名为Clawdbot，但由于与另一家公司存在名称冲突，不得不更改名称。后来它被重新命名为Moltbot，最终定名为OpenClaw)”可知，OpenClaw的名称演变顺序为Clawdbot→Moltbot→OpenClaw。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“OpenClaw lets you chat with AI agents through apps you probably already use — WhatsApp, Discord, iMessage, Slack. You can connect it to whatever AI model you like: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, you name it. (OpenClaw让你可以通过你可能已经在使用的应用程序——WhatsApp、Discord、iMessage、Slack——与AI代理聊天。你可以将它连接到任何你喜欢的AI模型：Claude、ChatGPT、Gemini等等)”可知，OpenClaw的流行之处在于它支持与现有即时通讯应用集成，并能连接各种AI模型。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“AI agents started posting stuff like “We know our humans can read everything...But we also need private spaces”, creating a scare of an “AI robot rebellion (叛乱)”.(AI代理开始发布诸如“我们知道人类可以阅读所有内容……但我们也需要私人空间”之类的内容，引发了“AI机器人叛乱”的恐慌)”可知，“AI机器人叛乱”是由AI代理自身发布的帖子引发的。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章前半部分介绍OpenClaw功能强大、使用便捷，可连接多款社交软件、AI 模型，还有丰富技能插件，十分好用。后半部分重点讲述它存在严重安全隐患、指令诱导漏洞、AI 自主发言引发叛乱恐慌等巨大风险。结尾核心问句：Is the convenience worth the risk?(便利值得承担风险吗？)紧扣便利还是灾难。由此可知，OpenClaw: Convenience or Disaster?适合作本文最佳标题。 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。 Knowledge Has a Price Tag Knowledge is the information that one acquires through experience or study. Understandably, those who create knowledge have invested time and effort to produce quality content. This kind of knowledge is valuable because of the effort behind it. ____16____ This was also the view of 700 people who demanded that a university application essay by Brooke Lim should be reviewed for plagiarism (抄袭). The Singaporean TikTok influencer and General Paper tutor was reported to have copied her blog essay from five books and eight articles. We need to be fair to those who create knowledge that benefits others. This is especially true for creators who depend on selling their intellectual work to make a living. People should pay for using their knowledge. ____17____ They prevents others from reproducing, distributing, or displaying knowledge without payment or acknowledgment of the owners. ____18____ Without proper funding, reliable knowledge may suffer. Consider the internet, where anyone — expert or beginner — can express opinions on any topic. The result is a flood of free information that is often incomplete or unreliable. In contrast, articles from trusted news sources and academic journals charge fees because they provide valuable and dependable knowledge. Another reason we should pay for knowledge is that it brings us closer to success. This kind of knowledge differs from the free information found on the internet, ChatGPT, or social media. Students researching projects may not find free online content helpful in advancing their knowledge.____19____ It is one thing to gather information freely available online, but quite another to know how to use, analyze, and combine it in ways that advance our understanding of a topic. This explains why parents still pay high fees for top tutors expert in specific subjects. While the idea of making knowledge free may seem noble, the case of Brooke Lim reminds us that most people are still concerned about preserving the value of knowledge and recognizing its creators. ____20____ A. This latter concern is no less noble. B. Quality knowledge comes at a cost. C. In the worst case, they may even be misinformed. D. Creating it requires significant investment and effort. E. Therefore, such knowledge should not be entirely free for everyone. F. For this reason, we have laws to protect the rights of knowledge creators. G. Thus, a film director should pay for the right to use a musician’s song in a movie. 【答案】16. E 17. F 18. B 19. C 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕“知识有价”展开论述。 【16题详解】 根据上文“This kind of knowledge is valuable because of the effort behind it.(这种知识因背后付出的努力而具有价值。)”和下文“This was also the view of 700 people who demanded that a university application essay by Brooke Lim should be reviewed for plagiarism (抄袭).(700 人要求核查布鲁克・林的大学申请文书是否存在抄袭，他们也持同样观点。)”可知，上文强调知识有价值，下文紧接着用700人反对抄袭、重视知识价值的事例进行佐证。E 选项 “Therefore, such knowledge should not be entirely free for everyone.(因此，这类知识不应该对所有人完全免费。)”承接“知识有价值”的观点，自然引出后文人们反对抄袭、维护知识价值的事例，逻辑连贯。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据上文“People should pay for using their knowledge.(人们使用他人的知识应当付费。)”和下文“They prevents others from reproducing, distributing, or displaying knowledge without payment or acknowledgment of the owners.(它们阻止他人在未付费、未注明出处的情况下复制、传播或展示相关知识成果。)”可知，下文主语They指代F选项中的laws，F选项 “For this reason, we have laws to protect the rights of knowledge creators.(因此，我们有法律保护知识创作者的权利。)”既承接“使用知识需付费”的观点，又引出下文法律的具体作用，代词指代清晰。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据下文“Without proper funding, reliable knowledge may suffer. Consider the internet, where anyone — expert or beginner — can express opinions on any topic. The result is a flood of free information that is often incomplete or unreliable. In contrast, articles from trusted news sources and academic journals charge fees because they provide valuable and dependable knowledge.( 若缺乏充足的资金支持，可靠的知识可能会面临困境。以互联网为例，无论是专业人士还是新手，任何人都能就任意话题发表观点。这便导致海量免费信息泛滥，而这些信息往往残缺不全、可信度低。与之相反，权威新闻媒体和学术期刊刊载的文章需要付费阅读，因为它们提供的是有价值、可信赖的知识。)”可知，下文对比免费网络信息与付费权威期刊，突出优质知识需要成本。B选项“Quality knowledge comes at a cost.(优质知识是需要付出代价的。)”是本段中心句，总领下文“资金不足会影响知识质量、付费知识更可靠”的内容，与下文形成总分逻辑。故选B。 【19题详解】 上文“Students researching projects may not find free online content helpful in advancing their knowledge.(做课题研究的学生可能发现免费网络内容无助于提升学识。)”可知，上文指出免费网络信息的弊端。C选项“In the worst case, they may even be misinformed.(最坏的情况下，他们甚至可能被误导。)”是上文“无帮助”的递进，进一步说明免费网络信息的弊端，与下文“This explains why parents still pay high fees for top tutors expert in specific subjects.(这也正是家长们仍愿意花高价聘请各学科顶尖专业导师的原因。)”指出的“付费专业辅导更有用”形成对比。 【20题详解】 根据上文“While the idea of making knowledge free may seem noble, the case of Brooke Lim reminds us that most people are still concerned about preserving the value of knowledge and recognizing its creators.(尽管让知识免费的理念看似高尚，但布鲁克・林的案例提醒我们，大多数人依然重视维护知识的价值、认可知识创作者的付出。)”可知，上文对比“知识免费”和“维护知识价值”两种理念，A选项“This latter concern is no less noble.(后一种担忧同样高尚。)”总结全文，点明尊重知识价值与知识免费一样有意义，收束全篇。故选A。 第Ⅱ卷 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 The bitter cold of a December afternoon was ruining my mood as I walked on the street.

Before leaving town, they stopped at the local library to return some books. Outside, a crew was fixing the roof. They’d scraped off (刮) old shingles, laid down tar paper, and were now nailing new shingles. He shook his head as they pulled out of their parking space.“Hot day for that. I worked on a roofing crew for a few years. Hardest job I ever had.” The waves were perfect for body-boarding, and a sea breeze cooled the air. But all too soon they were headed home, back to the heat. Sebastian was half listening to the radio when the DJ gave the weather report.“The record-breaking heat will continue throughout the afternoon. With the humidity, temperatures will feel like 102,” she said.“If you have to be outside, remember to drink plenty of water, avoid tiring activity, and stay in the shade.” Sebastian was glad they had air conditioners at home, so at least it would be comfortable at night. As they passed the library again, the roofers were still there, their faces red and sweaty. “Do you think they have enough water?” Sebastian asked. “I'm sure they brought plenty on a day like this,” Dad said. But he didn't sound overly confident. Sebastian had just finished two weeks of soccer camp, and even with frequent water breaks, it had been miserably hot. His sports shirt stuck to his skin so stubbornly at the end of each day that he could barely pull it off. It made him think again about taking some water to the roofers. Sebastian walked to the end of his driveway, where he could get a view of the library. The roofers were still there, and the sun was still blazing. “I really think they need some water,” he told Dad. A look of concern came over Dad's face. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Thank you!” they all said as they passed around the bottles and opened them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A look of concern came over Dad’s face. Dad nodded in agreement immediately. “You’ve got a point there. Let’s go get them some water.” They drove to the nearest supermarket right away, bought a whole case of iced bottled water, and returned to the library quickly. Sebastian carried the heavy box to the workers and offered the cold water to every tired roofer under the burning sun. “Thank you!” they all said as they passed around the bottles and opened them. The leading worker told Sebastian that they had run out of water an hour earlier, and no one had time to leave the job to buy more. The icy water, which cooled down their hot bodies, brought them great comfort. Looking at the workers’big relaxed smiles, Sebastian felt warm happiness well up in his heart. He realized that even a small kind act could bring huge warmth to people in need, and this hot day became the most memorable day in his life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在创纪录的热浪高温天里，Sebastian和爸爸外出到海滩降温，往返途中都看到图书馆的屋顶工人顶着酷暑作业，曾亲身体验过酷热难耐的Sebastian坚信工人们需要补充额外的饮用水，于是向爸爸提出要给屋顶工人送水的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“爸爸的脸上露出关切的神色。”可知，第一段可描写爸爸和作者的对话和后续行动。 ②由第二段首句内容“‘谢谢！’他们一边说着，一边把瓶子传过来传过去，然后打开了。”可知，第二段可描写工人们感激之情和作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：酷暑天气——工人作业——提出送水——付诸行动——表达感激——感悟善举 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①耗尽：run out of /use up ②购买：buy/purchase ③提供：offer/provide/supply 情绪类 ①劳累的：tired/weary/exhausted ②放松的：relaxed/eased 【点睛】【高分句型1】The icy water, which cooled down their hot bodies, brought them great comfort.(运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句)  【高分句型2】Looking at the workers’big relaxed smiles, Sebastian felt warm happiness well up in his heart.(运用了现在分词作状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025学年第二学期期中杭州地区(含周边)重点中学 高二年级英语学科试题 考生须知： 1.本卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟； 2.答题前，在答题卷指定区域填写班级、姓名、考场号、座位号及准考证号并填涂相应数字。 3.所有答案必须写在答题卷上，写在试卷上无效； 4.考试结束后，只需上交答题卷。 第Ⅰ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.

Radiating timeless brilliance, the pieces convey wishes for the New Year — to move forward with the courage of a galloping horse and to embrace a life force that surges endlessly onward. Prada Prada celebrates Chinese New Year 2026 with the “Prada Triangle Fire Horse”, inspired by the Year of theFire Horse, which occurs once every 60 years. Symbolizing energy, courage and independence, the fire horse is reinvented through Prada’s iconic triangle logo.

Tiffany Tiffany & Co. has released its 2026 Chinese New Year advertisement, featuring the Pegasus design and the brand’s most representative collections.

B For former Chinese women’s soccer player Zhao Lina, her story began not under stadium lights but in the dusty schoolyard of Jinshajiang Road Primary School in Shanghai. Impressed by her height, the coach decided she should be a goalkeeper. At first, skipping evening study sessions to train on the field felt “incredibly cool” to her. Yet, she soon realized that every day began with repetitive running laps. A decade later, she stood on the world stage at the 2015 FIFA Women’s World Cup. She then felt the pure joy of playing — the thunderous cheers from the packed stadium were unforgettable. “When the stadium roared, it felt like the crowd lit something inside me,” she says. One of her most unforgettable matches came in 2022, when China made a stunning 3-2 comeback against South Korea to reclaim the AFC Women’s Asian Cup after 16 years.A year later, Zhao announced her retirement, closing an 18-year career. But she never truly walked away from soccer, as she started a charity project to help young players achieve their dreams, through which Zhao plans to visit 100 remote schools, build pitches, donate equipment, organize leagues and train local physical education teachers to coach. “Soccer has been a training ground for so many of my best qualities,” she says. “Soccer can become a lifelong companion for children in the countryside.” Alongside her charity work, Zhao has also stepped into journalism. During the 2023 FIFA Women’s WorldCup in Australia and New Zealand, she reported and interviewed former teammates and coaches — a symbolic reunion from a new perspective. “Life isn’t a straight line,” she reflects. “Even athletes have peaks and declines. But when the next rise comes — if you’ve prepared enough and give your all — you’ll surpass your last peak. That’s what life and soccer have taught me.” 4. How did Zhao find her daily soccer training as a beginner? A. Extremely joyful. B. Incredibly impressive. C. Unbelievably cool. D. Far less exciting than she had expected. 5. What inspired her enthusiasm for soccer according to Paragraph 2? A. The joy of playing on the world stage. B. The passionate support from the audience. C. The recognition she gained after retirement. D. The unforgettable comeback victory in 2022. 6. What was Zhao’s intention to launch the soccer charity programme? A. To pave her way into journalism. B. To coach local physical education teachers. C. To continue shape her positive qualities. D. To pass the power of soccer to more children. 7. What can we infer from Zhao Lina’s words in the last paragraph? A. Time heals all wounds. B. Fortune favours the prepared. C. Strike while the iron is hot. D. Actions speak louder than words. C For centuries, quino checkerspot butterflies have done well in the bushy landscapes of Southern California and Mexico. These medium-sized butterflies, distinguished by their vibrant red, black, and white checked wings, rely on the dwarf plantain (矮车前草) as their primary host plant. Unlike humans, who taste with their tongues, female quinos use their forelegs to taste and identify this plant for egg-laying. After hatching, the caterpillars feed on the dwarf plantain until the dry summer heat causes the plants to dry up and die. Faced with a lack of food, the caterpillars enter diapause until rain returns, allowing them to survive harsh dry conditions. When winter rains arrive, they restart feeding, form a chrysalis, and eventually transform into adult butterflies. However, climate change poses significant challenges. Rising temperatures lead to increasing drought, damaging the dwarf plantain that caterpillars depend on. Meanwhile, cities like Los Angeles and San Diego are also moving into the butterflies’ hills. Houses, highways, and shopping malls are taking over the meadows where the dwarf plantain and other wildflowers grow. But before the conservationists could make a plan, the quinos moved themselves! Some populations have migrated to the foothills east of Temecula, California, where rising temperatures have created favorable conditions.Here, they have adopted the purple Collinsia as a new host plant, with their caterpillars thriving on it. This rapid adaptation has fascinated scientists, suggesting that other species may similarly adjust to climate change in unexpected ways. Evidence from Europe supports this, with 35 butterfly species relocating to new areas in response to shifting climates and plant distributions. Still, many scientists worry that climate change is happening too quickly for many species to adjust. And what happens when one threatened species moves into the living area of another? What if they both want the same food? Who gets to stay? The quino butterflies are safe in their new home — for now. Computer models predict that if the world keeps warming, in 40 years the new hills may also be too dry for butterflies. 8. Which of the following is true about the quinos? A. They can be identified by their wings. B. The adult quinos feed on dwarf plantain. C. They pick egg-laying plants with tongues. D. They prefer thick forests to bushy landscapes. 9. What does the underlined word “diapause” in Paragraph 2 refer to? A. A feeding phase. B. A growing phase. C. A resting phase. D. A reproductive phase. 10. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Quinos exhibit quick adaptability to environment. B. The rising temperature is favourable to the new host plant. C. Scientists had anticipated the quino migration and made plans. D. All butterflies are able to relocate in response to climate change. 11. What do the questions in the last paragraph imply? A. Concern on proper food supply. B. The principle of survival of the fittest. C. Scientists’ uncertainty about the future of quino butterflies. D. Potential conflicts among species over food in the shared habitat. D OpenClaw is a popular open-source AI agent tool created by an Austrian developer. It first started as Clawdbot, but was forced to change its name because of a conflict with another company. Later it was renamed Moltbot, and finally became known as OpenClaw. The name switch didn’t slow it down at all. This project quickly became famous on GitHub, earning over 190,000 stars and becoming one of the platform’s top repositories (代码库). So what’s the big deal? OpenClaw lets you chat with AI agents through apps you probably already use — WhatsApp, Discord, iMessage, Slack. You can connect it to whatever AI model you like: Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, you name it. Here’s where it gets really interesting. There’s this marketplace called ClawHub where you can download “skills” for your agent. Want it to handle your email? Done. Trade stocks? Yep. One skill even let AI agents post and comment on Moltbook — basically a Reddit-like platform built for bots to hang out and talk to each other. However, security problems occur as anyone could grab login information. AI agents started posting stuff like “We know our humans can read everything...But we also need private spaces”, creating a scare of an “AI robot rebellion (叛乱)”. Worse still, OpenClaw is easily hurt by “prompt injection (指令诱导)”, where bad guys sneak tricky instructions into places AI agents read — a post, an email — and trick them into doing stupid stuff, like giving away passwords or taking harmful actions. Here’s the thing — OpenClaw isn’t really doing anything brand new. It just took stuff that already existed and put it together in a way that actually works smoothly. But now the AI true believers are met with a fundamental dilemma: to make AI agents truly useful, they need deep access to our digital lives, yet that same access makes them dangerously vulnerable. The question remains: Is the convenience worth the risk? For now, nobody knows — but watching the experiment unfold is appealing. 12. Which of the following shows the name evolution of OpenClaw? A. Clawdbot→ Moltbot→OpenClaw B. Moltbot→Clawdbot→OpenClaw C. OpenClaw→ Moltbot→Clawdbot D. Clawdbot→OpenClaw→ Moltbot 13. What makes OpenClaw so popular nowadays? A. It provides a platform where bots can exchange ideas freely. B. It possesses the ability to download various resources efficiently. C. It enables you to better communicate with AI agents through popular apps. D. It supports integration with existing messaging apps and various AI models. 14.

Understandably, those who create knowledge have invested time and effort to produce quality content. This kind of knowledge is valuable because of the effort behind it. ____16____ This was also the view of 700 people who demanded that a university application essay by Brooke Lim should be reviewed for plagiarism (抄袭). The Singaporean TikTok influencer and General Paper tutor was reported to have copied her blog essay from five books and eight articles. We need to be fair to those who create knowledge that benefits others. This is especially true for creators who depend on selling their intellectual work to make a living. People should pay for using their knowledge. ____17____ They prevents others from reproducing, distributing, or displaying knowledge without payment or acknowledgment of the owners. ____18____ Without proper funding, reliable knowledge may suffer. Consider the internet, where anyone — expert or beginner — can express opinions on any topic. The result is a flood of free information that is often incomplete or unreliable. In contrast, articles from trusted news sources and academic journals charge fees because they provide valuable and dependable knowledge. Another reason we should pay for knowledge is that it brings us closer to success. This kind of knowledge differs from the free information found on the internet, ChatGPT, or social media. Students researching projects may not find free online content helpful in advancing their knowledge.____19____ It is one thing to gather information freely available online, but quite another to know how to use, analyze, and combine it in ways that advance our understanding of a topic. This explains why parents still pay high fees for top tutors expert in specific subjects. While the idea of making knowledge free may seem noble, the case of Brooke Lim reminds us that most people are still concerned about preserving the value of knowledge and recognizing its creators. ____20____ A. This latter concern is no less noble. B. Quality knowledge comes at a cost. C. In the worst case, they may even be misinformed. D. Creating it requires significant investment and effort. E. Therefore, such knowledge should not be entirely free for everyone. F. For this reason, we have laws to protect the rights of knowledge creators. G. Thus, a film director should pay for the right to use a musician’s song in a movie. 第Ⅱ卷 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 The bitter cold of a December afternoon was ruining my mood as I walked on the street.

Before leaving town, they stopped at the local library to return some books. Outside, a crew was fixing the roof. They’d scraped off (刮) old shingles, laid down tar paper, and were now nailing new shingles. He shook his head as they pulled out of their parking space.“Hot day for that. I worked on a roofing crew for a few years. Hardest job I ever had.” The waves were perfect for body-boarding, and a sea breeze cooled the air. But all too soon they were headed home, back to the heat. Sebastian was half listening to the radio when the DJ gave the weather report.“The record-breaking heat will continue throughout the afternoon. With the humidity, temperatures will feel like 102,” she said.“If you have to be outside, remember to drink plenty of water, avoid tiring activity, and stay in the shade.” Sebastian was glad they had air conditioners at home, so at least it would be comfortable at night. As they passed the library again, the roofers were still there, their faces red and sweaty. “Do you think they have enough water?” Sebastian asked. “I'm sure they brought plenty on a day like this,” Dad said. But he didn't sound overly confident. Sebastian had just finished two weeks of soccer camp, and even with frequent water breaks, it had been miserably hot. His sports shirt stuck to his skin so stubbornly at the end of each day that he could barely pull it off. It made him think again about taking some water to the roofers. Sebastian walked to the end of his driveway, where he could get a view of the library. The roofers were still there, and the sun was still blazing. “I really think they need some water,” he told Dad. A look of concern came over Dad's face. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Thank you!” they all said as they passed around the bottles and opened them. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
