In 1699, she and her 21-year-old daughter Dorothea sailed from Amsterdam to Surinam in South America. The three-month voyage was dangerous but she was determined to go. Besides, she was on a bold mission. She would be the first person to go to a foreign country to study and paint insects directly from nature. When they arrived in Surinam, Maria and Dorothea started working. Day after day, they took their painting materials into the hot, humid rainforest to collect and draw insects and plants. Artists had never done such a thing before. Still life painters drew from dead specimens (标本). But Merian had always been interested in painting living animals and plants, and her favourite subjects were insects. In the rainforest, she climbed high to study and collect insects. She had trees cut down so she could see what lived at the top level of the forest more than a hundred feet overhead. Merian combined both art and science in her work. A skilled observer, she kept detailed notes. Merian planned to stay in Surinam for five years, painting and collecting insects and plants that Europeans had never seen. She learnt about the medicinal plants of the area and expanded her interest to spiders, birds, lizards and snakes. She planned to publish a book of her new work on her return to Amsterdam. After two years, she had to leave Surinam. The heat was unbearable and she was ill with malaria. But she had more than enough material for a book. Maria and Dorothea sailed back to Amsterdam with many paintings and specimens — butterflies preserved in brandy, bottles with crocodiles and snakes, lizards’ eggs and boxes of pressed insects. Four years later, in 1705, Merian published the book for which she is best known, Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam. The paintings of insects and plants in their natural habitats transformed scientific illustration and advanced the scientific study of insects. 4. What did Maria Siylla Merian sail to Surinam for? A. Adventuring on the sea with her daughter. B. Challenging the traditional opinion on women. C. Becoming the first traveler to a foreign country. D. Creating pictures of insects in their natural habitats. 5. What can we know about Merian’s stay in Surinam? A. She drew animals and plants from dead specimens. B. She brought local medicinal plants back to Amsterdam. C. She struggled to collect and paint living animals and plants. D. She published the book Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam. 6. When did Merian return to Amsterdam? A. In 1704. B. In 1699. C. In 1701. D. In 1705. 7. What contributes to the publishing of Merian’s best known book? A. Her interest and creativity. B. Her curiosity and imagination. C. Her ambition and eagerness for success. D. Her adventurous spirit and determination. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述女艺术家Maria Sibylla Merian为了研究和绘画活的昆虫，和女儿航行三个月到达南美洲，并且成为此领域的先驱的事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Besides, she was on a bold mission. She would be the first person to go to a foreign country to study and paint insects directly from nature.(此外，她正在执行一项大胆的任务。她将是第一个去国外直接从大自然中研究和绘制昆虫的人)”可知，Maria Sibylla航海去Surinam是为了创作昆虫在自然栖息地的图片。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Day after day, they took their painting materials into the hot, humid rainforest to collect and draw insects and plants.(日复一日，他们带着绘画材料进入炎热潮湿的雨林，收集和绘制昆虫和植物)”及“But Merian had always been interested in painting living animals and plants, and her favourite subjects were insects.(但梅里安一直对画活的动物和植物很感兴趣，她最喜欢的主题是昆虫)”可知，Merian待在Surinam时努力收集和画活的动植物。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“After two years, she had to leave Surinam.(两年后，她不得不离开苏里南)”及最后一段“Four years later, in 1705, Merian published the book for which she is best known, Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam.(四年后的1705年，梅里安出版了她最著名的著作Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam)”可知，Merian于1701年离开Surinam。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“The three-month voyage was dangerous but she was determined to go. Besides, she was on a bold mission. She would be the first person to go to a foreign country to study and paint insects directly from nature.(三个月的航行很危险，但她决心要去。此外，她正在执行一项大胆的任务。她将是第一个去国外直接从大自然中研究和绘制昆虫的人)”及全文介绍了Merian和女儿研究和绘画活的昆虫的探险经历，并最后发表著作的故事，因此，是她的冒险精神和决心让她成功发表了著作。故选D。 C A group of giraffes moves elegantly across a wide-open Kenyan plain. Their long necks stretch high, swinging gently with each graceful step. The sun bathes the landscape in a golden colour, casting long shadows over the grass. In the distance, the snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro rises grandly against the sky. What has led to giraffes’ extraordinary shape? According to Charles Darwin, the neck of 1.8 m benefits them by allowing them to out-reach shorter-necked competitors to feed on green leaves in tall trees; it has become a classic example of evolutionary (进化) theory. But the research from East Africa showed that tall giraffes frequently feed from low-growing bushes and eat faster and more regularly at low heights. This is a surprise for Darwin’s feeding competition idea. Giraffes invest a lot in neck growth. Males continue to grow their necks into old age (about 28), well past the time females stop (around the age of 8). At last, males have long and strong necks, which they use to show off before females as well as fight against enemies. It seems that their necks are more notably used as weapons than for feeding. Is the neck a result of evolution? The answer should date back to their ancestors. In 2022, a group of experts led by a Chinese biologist uncovered one of the smallest known giraffe fossils. This ancient animal, standing about 1.2 m tall, showed a short but strengthened neck and a horned head. That was the earliest known shape of giraffes ever found. They lived some 16.9 million years ago! Today’s giraffes are much larger, with necks longer and horns dramatically reduced. With the necks they can not only eat higher and lower, spot danger earlier, but fight with more power. These all contribute to their survival. Darwin is right. Watching the giraffes gracefully wander across the plain, I am once again in awe of the natural beauty shaped by the power of natural selection. 8. What is the purpose of mentioning the research from East Africa? A. To doubt an established theory. B. To offer an additional example. C. To advocate for common sense. D. To support a questioned belief. 9. What does the author aim to stress about giraffes’ neck growing in paragraph 3? A. The advantage of the males. B. The importance for survival. C. The relation with their ages. D. The difference between genders. 10. What is now the author’s attitude towards Darwin’s theory? A. He is well convinced. B. He is disapproving. C. He is more tolerant. D. He is still cautious. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. An Exception to Darwin’s Theory. B. Giraffes and Their Neck Competition. C. The Problem of Giraffe Evolution. D. Nature’s Perfect Design for Giraffes. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍长颈鹿颈部进化之谜，探讨其颈部增长与生存策略、性别差异之间的关系，以及达尔文进化论在此中的体现与挑战。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“According to Charles Darwin, the neck of 1.8 m benefits them by allowing them to out-reach shorter-necked competitors to feed on green leaves in tall trees; it has become a classic example of evolutionary (进化) theory. But the research from East Africa showed that tall giraffes frequently feed from low-growing bushes and eat faster and more regularly at low heights. This is a surprise for Darwin’s feeding competition idea.(根据查尔斯·达尔文的观点，1.8米长的脖子让长颈鹿在觅食高树绿叶时比短脖子的竞争者更有优势；这已成为进化论的一个经典例证。但东非的研究显示，高大的长颈鹿经常从低矮灌木中觅食，而且在低处进食更快、更频繁。这对于达尔文的觅食竞争理论来说是一个意外。)”可知，东非的研究结果显示，高大的长颈鹿经常从矮灌木上觅食，并且在低高度吃得更快、更频繁，这与达尔文的进食竞争理论相矛盾。因此，提到东非的研究是为了质疑已建立的理论。故选A项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Giraffes invest a lot in neck growth. Males continue to grow their necks into old age (about 28), well past the time females stop (around the age of 8). At last, males have long and strong necks, which they use to show off before females as well as fight against enemies. It seems that their necks are more notably used as weapons than for feeding.(长颈鹿在颈部生长上投入很多。雄性持续生长颈部直至老年（约28岁），远超雌性停止生长的时间（约8岁）。最后，雄性拥有长而强壮的颈部，它们用颈部在雌性面前展示，并与敌人战斗。似乎它们的颈部更多是用作武器，而非用来进食。)”可知，长颈鹿在脖子的生长上投入了很多，雄性长颈鹿的脖子不仅长而且强壮，它们用脖子在雌性面前炫耀以及对抗敌人。这表明，长脖子对长颈鹿的生存非常重要。因此，作者在第三段中强调了长脖子对长颈鹿生存的重要性。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“With the necks they can not only eat higher and lower, spot danger earlier, but fight with more power. These all contribute to their survival. Darwin is right. Watching the giraffes gracefully wander across the plain, I am once again in awe of the natural beauty shaped by the power of natural selection.(有了长颈，它们不仅能吃到更高和更低处的食物，还能更早发现危险，并且更有力量战斗。这些全都有助于它们的生存。达尔文是对的。看着长颈鹿优雅地漫步在平原上，我再次对自然选择塑造的自然之美感到敬畏。)”可知，长脖子使长颈鹿能够吃更高和更低的食物，更早发现危险，并且以更大的力量战斗，这些都有助于它们的生存。作者认为达尔文是对的，并对自然选择塑造的自然之美感到敬畏。因此，作者对达尔文理论的态度是完全信服的。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A group of giraffes moves elegantly across a wide-open Kenyan plain. Their long necks stretch high, swinging gently with each graceful step. The sun bathes the landscape in a golden colour, casting long shadows over the grass. In the distance, the snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro rises grandly against the sky.(一群长颈鹿优雅地行进在开阔的肯尼亚平原上。它们的长脖子高高伸起，随着每一步优雅的步伐轻轻摆动。阳光给这片风景镀上一层金色，在草地上投下长长的影子。远处，戴着雪冠的乞力马扎罗山在天空下雄伟地耸立着。)”、第二段“According to Charles Darwin, the neck of 1.8 m benefits them by allowing them to out-reach shorter-necked competitors to feed on green leaves in tall trees; it has become a classic example of evolutionary (进化) theory. But the research from East Africa showed that tall giraffes frequently feed from low-growing bushes and eat faster and more regularly at low heights. This is a surprise for Darwin’s feeding competition idea.( 根据查尔斯·达尔文的观点，1.8米长的脖子让长颈鹿在觅食高树绿叶时比短脖子的竞争者更有优势；这已成为进化论的一个经典例证。但东非的研究显示，高大的长颈鹿经常从低矮灌木中觅食，而且在低处进食更快、更频繁。这对于达尔文的觅食竞争理论来说是一个意外。)”以及最后一段“With the necks they can not only eat higher and lower, spot danger earlier, but fight with more power. These all contribute to their survival. Darwin is right. Watching the giraffes gracefully wander across the plain, I am once again in awe of the natural beauty shaped by the power of natural selection.(有了长颈，它们不仅能吃到更高和更低处的食物，还能更早发现危险，并且更有力量战斗。这些全都有助于它们的生存。达尔文是对的。看着长颈鹿优雅地漫步在平原上，我再次对自然选择塑造的自然之美感到敬畏。)”可知，本文主要介绍了长颈鹿的长脖子是如何形成的，以及长脖子对长颈鹿生存的贡献。文章提到了达尔文的进化理论，并通过东非的研究结果和长颈鹿祖先的化石发现，进一步探讨了长脖子的进化过程。所以D项Nature’s Perfect Design for Giraffes(自然对长颈鹿的完美设计)表达的含义与本文主旨相符，适合用作本文标题。故选D项。 D There is a tendency among how-to enthusiasts to talk about creativity as if it had fixed goals: things you know from the start will turn out to be novels or symphonies (交响乐). Writers and musicians who have suffered many failures know this is an unlikely task. If they have to talk about it, they use “artistic vision” and leave it at that. However, experience tells me that creativity often lies to one side of a declared aim. Some young writers are attracted by the idea that they can identify a model and knock out a thriller. Well, maybe so, but novels can take on countless shapes. The problem becomes clear when you start work creatively, because the need to believe in a fixed goal will hold you back. Scientists call this need the set effect. It finds that a general tendency exists to favour known methods in problem-solving at the expense of alternatives. It is also a good way of describing what can happen when an artistic approach stops producing results. A few years ago, when I finished Murmur, a novel about Alan Turing, I knew I wouldn’t be working that way again. Nevertheless, I tried a second historical fiction. Failed. Meanwhile, I was playing the piano and composing on the side, which worked nicely. So, the side-long view is important. The world of nature also offers similar cases. Insects and some birds rely less on an inbuilt map of the world to locate food than on what they see when they are moving. When a bee flies sideways, generating motion parallax (运动视差), a flower can be clearly located. Perhaps, artistic vision is a part of physical seeing, where looking from different angles is more important than staring straight at something. Creative projects and artistic vision come from our inborn response to the world around us. And since the world is always changing, so is our creativity — it’s never fixed or set in stone. 12. How do writers and musicians view creativity in the first paragraph? A. It has uncertainties. B. It is hidden in failures. C. It comes with a fixed goal. D. It is limited to specific fields. 13. What made the author fail in the creation of the fiction? A. Influence of the set effect. B. Lacking historical knowledge. C. Trying a new artistic approach. D. Distraction from playing the piano. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Explanation of the set effect. B. Deep research into insect life. C. Supporting evidence in nature. D. Doubts on insects’ inborn abilities. 15. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph? A. Staying flexible. B. Living to the fullest. C. Keeping exploring. D. Holding on to your goal. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了创造力的不确定性，指出固定目标和方法会限制创意，强调从多角度观察和灵活应对变化是激发创造力的关键。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“There is a tendency among how-to enthusiasts to talk about creativity as if it had fixed goals: things you know from the start will turn out to be novels or symphonies (交响乐). Writers and musicians who have suffered many failures know this is an unlikely task. (在那些热衷于“如何做”的人中，有一种倾向是谈论创造力，仿佛它有固定的目标：从一开始就知道会变成小说或交响乐的东西。经历过多次失败的作家和音乐家知道，这几乎是不可能的任务)”可知，作家和音乐家认识到创造力具有不确定性，不是从一开始就有固定目标的。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Scientists call this need the set effect. It finds that a general tendency exists to favour known methods in problem-solving at the expense of alternatives. It is also a good way of describing what can happen when an artistic approach stops producing results. A few years ago, when I finished Murmur, a novel about Alan Turing, I knew I wouldn’t be working that way again. Nevertheless, I tried a second historical fiction. Failed. (科学家将这种需求称为定势效应。研究发现，人们在解决问题时普遍倾向于使用已知方法，而忽视了其他选择。这也是描述当一种艺术方法不再产生结果时会发生什么的一种好方式。几年前，当我完成了Murmur——一部关于艾伦·图灵的小说时，我知道我不会再以那种方式工作了。然而，我还是尝试了第二部历史小说，结果失败了)”可知，作者在创作小说时失败，是因为他试图重复之前的方式，受到了定势效应的影响。故选A项。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“So, the side-long view is important. The world of nature also offers similar cases. Insects and some birds rely less on an inbuilt map of the world to locate food than on what they see when they are moving. When a bee flies sideways, generating motion parallax (运动视差), a flower can be clearly located. (因此，从侧面着眼很重要。自然界也提供了类似的例子。昆虫和一些鸟类在寻找食物时，较少依赖内置的世界地图，而是更多地依靠它们在移动时看到的东西。当蜜蜂侧飞时，产生运动视差，花朵的位置就能被清晰地确定)”可知，本段主要通过昆虫和鸟类的例子说明从侧面着眼的重要性，提供了自然界的支持证据。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Perhaps, artistic vision is a part of physical seeing, where looking from different angles is more important than staring straight at something. Creative projects and artistic vision come from our inborn response to the world around us. And since the world is always changing, so is our creativity — it’s never fixed or set in stone. (或许，艺术愿景是物理视觉的一部分，从不同角度观察比直盯着某样东西更为重要。创意项目和艺术愿景源于我们对周围世界与生俱来的反应。既然世界总是在变化，我们的创造力也是如此——它从来不是固定不变的)”可知，作者认为创造力也应该是灵活的，需用从多角度出发，而不是固定不变的。由此可知，作者建议保持灵活。故选A项。 第二节 （共5 小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The Rise of “China-chic” Over past years, guochao, or “China-chic” has been gaining popularity among Chinese consumers.

On the first day of the camp, I noticed the boy under the tree, who was small and skinny. His obvious shyness made him appear desperately lonely. Only 50 feet away, 200 eager campers were playing, joking and meeting each other, but the boy under the tree... I remembered the instructions from the senior staff to watch for campers who might feel left out. Walking toward him, I said, “Hi, my name is Kevin, one of the instructors. Nice to meet you. How are you?” In an embarrassed voice he answered with hesitation, “Okay, I guess!” I calmly asked him if he wanted to join them to make some new friends. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.” I could sense that this whole experience was foreign to him. But I knew it wouldn’t be right to push him, either. He didn’t need an encouraging talk, but a friend. At lunch time, I found myself leading camp songs at the top of my lungs for 200 of my new friends. The campers eagerly participated. My gaze wandered over the mass of noise and movement and was caught by the boy from under the tree, sitting alone, staring out the window. Feeling a little bit concerned, I tried again, “How are you doing? Are you okay?” He again replied, “Yeah, I’m alright. I just don’t really get into this stuff.” At that moment, I realized this was going to take more time and effort than I had thought. That evening at our staff meeting, I explained my concerns about the boy to my fellow staff members, and asked them to pay special attention and spend time with him when they could. Soon came the final night of the camp. The campers were doing all they could to enjoy the last moment with their “new best friends”. As I approached, I suddenly saw what would be one of the most vivid memories of my 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。 The boy, from under the tree, was laughing heartily among the campers. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I was about to leave quietly, a loud voice called out, “Hi, Kevin.” ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The boy, from under the tree, was laughing heartily among the campers. With his hands waving in the air, he seemed to be sharing something amusing with his friends, causing bursts of laughter. Seeing the face glowing with excitement, I was relieved, great joy welling up in my heart. Never had I imagined the boy could enjoy the meaningful time with people at whom he couldn’t even look just days earlier. It is such a huge surprise!” I thought to myself, with my heart filled with great joy. When I was about to leave quietly, a loud voice called out, “Hi, Kevin”. I stopped, turned back and saw the boy dashing towards me with a big smile. “I have made many new friends here!” he stood in front of me, staring into my eyes and saying, “Thanks a lot!” Before I could say anything, he took a step back and bowed deeply to me. Seeing the confident boy, I opened my arms and hugged him tightly. At that instant, I realized you may never know how much each gesture may mean to someone else. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一个暑假被邀请去做一个高中领导训练营的讲师，遇到了一个又小又瘦的男孩，作者特别关注这个男孩，在营地的最后一晚，作者看到了男孩的变化，十分开心，意识到自己的行为会对别人带来的积极影响。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那个在树下的男孩在露营者中尽情地笑着。”可知，第一段可描写男孩和朋友交流和作者的心情。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我正要悄悄离开时，一个响亮的声音喊道：“嗨，凯文。””可知，第二段可描写小男孩对作者表示感谢及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：男孩欢笑——和朋友交流——作者高兴——男孩叫住作者——男孩感激——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①想象：imagine/picture ②拥抱：hug/hold ③看见：see/find/spot 情绪类 ①欢乐：joy/happiness/cheer ②惊讶：surprise/amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1] Seeing the face glowing with excitement, I was relieved, great joy welling up in my heart.（由现在分词作状语和独立主格结构） [高分句型2] Before I could say anything, he took a step back and bowed deeply to me.（由before引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高三年级第一次自主检测英语试题 2025.10 第一部分 听力 （共两节，每小题1.5分，满分30分） 第一节 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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

In 1699, she and her 21-year-old daughter Dorothea sailed from Amsterdam to Surinam in South America. The three-month voyage was dangerous but she was determined to go. Besides, she was on a bold mission. She would be the first person to go to a foreign country to study and paint insects directly from nature. When they arrived in Surinam, Maria and Dorothea started working. Day after day, they took their painting materials into the hot, humid rainforest to collect and draw insects and plants. Artists had never done such a thing before. Still life painters drew from dead specimens (标本). But Merian had always been interested in painting living animals and plants, and her favourite subjects were insects. In the rainforest, she climbed high to study and collect insects. She had trees cut down so she could see what lived at the top level of the forest more than a hundred feet overhead. Merian combined both art and science in her work. A skilled observer, she kept detailed notes. Merian planned to stay in Surinam for five years, painting and collecting insects and plants that Europeans had never seen. She learnt about the medicinal plants of the area and expanded her interest to spiders, birds, lizards and snakes. She planned to publish a book of her new work on her return to Amsterdam. After two years, she had to leave Surinam. The heat was unbearable and she was ill with malaria. But she had more than enough material for a book. Maria and Dorothea sailed back to Amsterdam with many paintings and specimens — butterflies preserved in brandy, bottles with crocodiles and snakes, lizards’ eggs and boxes of pressed insects. Four years later, in 1705, Merian published the book for which she is best known, Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam. The paintings of insects and plants in their natural habitats transformed scientific illustration and advanced the scientific study of insects. 4. What did Maria Siylla Merian sail to Surinam for? A. Adventuring on the sea with her daughter. B. Challenging the traditional opinion on women. C. Becoming the first traveler to a foreign country. D. Creating pictures of insects in their natural habitats. 5. What can we know about Merian’s stay in Surinam? A. She drew animals and plants from dead specimens. B. She brought local medicinal plants back to Amsterdam. C. She struggled to collect and paint living animals and plants. D. She published the book Metamorphosis of the Insects of Surinam. 6. When did Merian return to Amsterdam? A. In 1704. B. In 1699. C. In 1701. D. In 1705. 7. What contributes to the publishing of Merian’s best known book? A. Her interest and creativity. B. Her curiosity and imagination. C. Her ambition and eagerness for success. D. Her adventurous spirit and determination. C A group of giraffes moves elegantly across a wide-open Kenyan plain. Their long necks stretch high, swinging gently with each graceful step. The sun bathes the landscape in a golden colour, casting long shadows over the grass. In the distance, the snow-capped Mount Kilimanjaro rises grandly against the sky. What has led to giraffes’ extraordinary shape? According to Charles Darwin, the neck of 1.8 m benefits them by allowing them to out-reach shorter-necked competitors to feed on green leaves in tall trees; it has become a classic example of evolutionary (进化) theory. But the research from East Africa showed that tall giraffes frequently feed from low-growing bushes and eat faster and more regularly at low heights. This is a surprise for Darwin’s feeding competition idea. Giraffes invest a lot in neck growth. Males continue to grow their necks into old age (about 28), well past the time females stop (around the age of 8). At last, males have long and strong necks, which they use to show off before females as well as fight against enemies. It seems that their necks are more notably used as weapons than for feeding. Is the neck a result of evolution? The answer should date back to their ancestors. In 2022, a group of experts led by a Chinese biologist uncovered one of the smallest known giraffe fossils. This ancient animal, standing about 1.2 m tall, showed a short but strengthened neck and a horned head. That was the earliest known shape of giraffes ever found. They lived some 16.9 million years ago! Today’s giraffes are much larger, with necks longer and horns dramatically reduced. With the necks they can not only eat higher and lower, spot danger earlier, but fight with more power. These all contribute to their survival. Darwin is right. Watching the giraffes gracefully wander across the plain, I am once again in awe of the natural beauty shaped by the power of natural selection. 8. What is the purpose of mentioning the research from East Africa? A. To doubt an established theory. B. To offer an additional example. C. To advocate for common sense. D. To support a questioned belief. 9. What does the author aim to stress about giraffes’ neck growing in paragraph 3? A. The advantage of the males. B. The importance for survival. C. The relation with their ages. D. The difference between genders. 10. What is now the author’s attitude towards Darwin’s theory? A. He is well convinced. B. He is disapproving. C. He is more tolerant. D. He is still cautious. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. An Exception to Darwin’s Theory. B. Giraffes and Their Neck Competition. C. The Problem of Giraffe Evolution. D. Nature’s Perfect Design for Giraffes. D There is a tendency among how-to enthusiasts to talk about creativity as if it had fixed goals: things you know from the start will turn out to be novels or symphonies (交响乐). Writers and musicians who have suffered many failures know this is an unlikely task. If they have to talk about it, they use “artistic vision” and leave it at that. However, experience tells me that creativity often lies to one side of a declared aim. Some young writers are attracted by the idea that they can identify a model and knock out a thriller. Well, maybe so, but novels can take on countless shapes. The problem becomes clear when you start work creatively, because the need to believe in a fixed goal will hold you back. Scientists call this need the set effect. It finds that a general tendency exists to favour known methods in problem-solving at the expense of alternatives. It is also a good way of describing what can happen when an artistic approach stops producing results. A few years ago, when I finished Murmur, a novel about Alan Turing, I knew I wouldn’t be working that way again. Nevertheless, I tried a second historical fiction. Failed. Meanwhile, I was playing the piano and composing on the side, which worked nicely. So, the side-long view is important. The world of nature also offers similar cases. Insects and some birds rely less on an inbuilt map of the world to locate food than on what they see when they are moving. When a bee flies sideways, generating motion parallax (运动视差), a flower can be clearly located. Perhaps, artistic vision is a part of physical seeing, where looking from different angles is more important than staring straight at something. Creative projects and artistic vision come from our inborn response to the world around us. And since the world is always changing, so is our creativity — it’s never fixed or set in stone. 12. How do writers and musicians view creativity in the first paragraph? A. It has uncertainties. B. It is hidden in failures. C. It comes with a fixed goal. D. It is limited to specific fields. 13. What made the author fail in the creation of the fiction? A. Influence of the set effect. B. Lacking historical knowledge. C. Trying a new artistic approach. D. Distraction from playing the piano. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Explanation of the set effect. B. Deep research into insect life. C. Supporting evidence in nature. D. Doubts on insects’ inborn abilities. 15. What does the author suggest in the last paragraph? A. Staying flexible. B. Living to the fullest. C. Keeping exploring. D. Holding on to your goal. 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。 The Rise of “China-chic” Over past years, guochao, or “China-chic” has been gaining popularity among Chinese consumers.

On the first day of the camp, I noticed the boy under the tree, who was small and skinny. His obvious shyness made him appear desperately lonely. Only 50 feet away, 200 eager campers were playing, joking and meeting each other, but the boy under the tree... I remembered the instructions from the senior staff to watch for campers who might feel left out. Walking toward him, I said, “Hi, my name is Kevin, one of the instructors. Nice to meet you. How are you?” In an embarrassed voice he answered with hesitation, “Okay, I guess!” I calmly asked him if he wanted to join them to make some new friends. He quietly replied, “No, this is not really my thing.” I could sense that this whole experience was foreign to him. But I knew it wouldn’t be right to push him, either. He didn’t need an encouraging talk, but a friend. At lunch time, I found myself leading camp songs at the top of my lungs for 200 of my new friends. The campers eagerly participated. My gaze wandered over the mass of noise and movement and was caught by the boy from under the tree, sitting alone, staring out the window. Feeling a little bit concerned, I tried again, “How are you doing? Are you okay?” He again replied, “Yeah, I’m alright. I just don’t really get into this stuff.” At that moment, I realized this was going to take more time and effort than I had thought. That evening at our staff meeting, I explained my concerns about the boy to my fellow staff members, and asked them to pay special attention and spend time with him when they could. Soon came the final night of the camp. The campers were doing all they could to enjoy the last moment with their “new best friends”. As I approached, I suddenly saw what would be one of the most vivid memories of my 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。 The boy, from under the tree, was laughing heartily among the campers. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When I was about to leave quietly, a loud voice called out, “Hi, Kevin.” ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
