B I have always felt a deep pull to travel solo, to let my adventurous spirit lead the way. That longing lingered for years, but life got in the way. Family, work, responsibilities — they quietened the voice until it became barely a whisper. Then, I turned 60, and the voice grew louder; but I worried it was too late, that I’d missed my chance. Around then, I started working with Jack, a counselling client with the same restless energy. He wanted to quit his job to see the world, and talking with him felt like speaking to a mirror, forcing me to confront my fear of leaving my safe, comfortable life. It wasn’t until Jack announced he was ready to build a better-fitting life that I felt inspired to take the leap, planning a solo trip along Australia’s western coast. The real test came when I booked my flights and accommodation. Part of me secretly hoped the payment might fail, giving me time to reconsider. But as a counsellor, I’ve seen too many cling to familiar routines long after they stop serving them. As my booking went through, I knew that stepping into uncertainty, at any age, opens the door to growth, confidence, and joy. It’s not easy, but every step brings greater reward. My family’s encouragement made this easier. My steady husband hugged me and said, “You’ll regret it if you don’t go.” My adult children were thrilled and called me courageous. Of course, fear naturally holds us back, but facing it is the first step to real breakthroughs. Courage is less about conquering fear, more about trusting yourself amid uncertainty. Writing this from the airport, about to board my flight to Australia, I know fortune favors the brave. It may not be easy to overcome the fear of solo travel, but it’s better to live boldly than to let dreams fade without giving it a go. 24. Which of the following statements about the author is true? A. She started her career as a counsellor after meeting her client Jack. B. She believed age is an unbreakable barrier for exploring the world. C. She finally gave up the trip because her payment failed to go through. D. She put her personal dream aside for years because of family and work. 25. What directly inspired the author to plan her solo trip? A. Her failed flight booking. B. Her client Jack’s decision. C. Her 60th birthday reflection. D. Her family’s encouragement. 26. Why did the author secretly hope her flight payment would fail? A. She was unwilling to go on the solo trip. B. She needed more time to reconsider the route. C. She doubted her ability to handle the trip alone. D. She was not fully ready to leave her comfort zone. 27. What does the author want to convey in the passage? A. Fortune comes to those acting without fear. B. Bravery conquers the fear that accompanies uncertainty. C. Courage involves acting even when you want to hold back. D. Boldness relies on encouragement from family members. C Symbolic of beauty, pride, and wealth in some cultures, peacocks are often associated with being confident and attention-grabbing. So, perhaps it’s no surprise that these striking creatures can be used in a metaphor to illustrate complex family dynamics. Being honest about the ups and downs of family life isn’t something you’ll usually hear from a “peacock parent”. Instead, they’ll project the “perfect family”, showing off their child’s talents in public, while criticizing them behind closed doors when disappointed. You may have heard the expression “as proud as a peacock”, to suggest self-importance or attention-grabbing behaviour. In relation to parenting, this can be interpreted as narcissistic (自恋的) parenting, characterized by poor understanding, control, emotional dependency, and a pervasive preoccupation with feeling powerful or special within the family dynamics. The roots of this arrogant behaviour stem from the narcissistic wound of low or fragile self-worth, counsellor Olena Chechel notes, explaining how this leads to children being seen as self-extensions or objects to fulfil the success of the peacock parent. The child must be perceived as acceptable, shiny, or significant, as this all ties back to them. Olena goes on to explain that due to these parental expectations, the child may struggle to learn about their own interests, explore their curiosities, or simply be a child. They can soon realize that having an authentic self is detrimental to the relationship, and, indeed, that their caregiver can quickly pull back their love. Growing up with a narcissistic parent can feel like being trapped in a web, but a first step to break free from its effects in adulthood is self-compassion. This mindful awareness can involve learning how to move away from the inner critic, following your interests, and speaking more kindly to yourself. Olena also recommends redefining the relationship if the parent is causing distress: “Instead of bringing emotion into the relationship with the hope of being understood, it can be helpful to find boundaries that will make you feel safer in the dynamic. If the relationship is causing harm, you may need to limit contact. This is something we get to do as adults, but can’t do as children. It can be healing to make that choice.” 28. The author mentions peacocks at the beginning of the passage mainly to _________. A. explain why peacocks are admired in many cultures B. describe how animal behaviour reflects human family relationships C. introduce an image that helps readers understand a certain type of parent D. show that metaphors based on animals are common in English expressions 29. Which of the following statements about peacock parents is true? A. They treat their children as a reflection of themselves. B. They worry that others may judge their child negatively. C. They hope public praise will boost children’s confidence. D. They believe strong performance can make their children stand out. 30. The underlined word” detrimental” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _________. A. harmful B. unnecessary C. sensitive D. irrelevant 31. What does Olena recommend for those dealing with distressing peacock parents in the last paragraph? A. To cut off all contact with their parents immediately. B. To wait until their parents recognize the harm they have caused. C. To step back from the relationship and create space when it becomes damaging. D. To express their emotions openly in hopes of being understood by their parents. D One of the primary causes of insomnia and poor sleep quality is negative thinking, as explored in 2023 research in the Journal of Anxiety Disorders. While it may seem harmless at first, persistent negative thoughts gradually increase anxiety levels, placing strain on the brain’s ability to regulate itself effectively. Over time, this can lead to a loss of what we might describe as “intellectual control”. Although we each have one brain, humans effectively operate with two distinct modes of thinking. The first is the intellectual, logical, and rational side of the brain, which allows us to analyse situations calmly and make reasoned decisions. The second is more primitive, and watchful, whose primary function is survival. When anxiety levels rise, the brain automatically shifts control away from the intellectual mind, and into this more primitive mode. This shift is the same automatic response that would occur if we were faced with a genuine threat or emergency. Imagine encountering a hungry, restless polar bear determined to attack you. Your brain would instantly prioritize survival, setting aside logic, and placing your body on high alert. While this response is invaluable in life-threatening situations, it becomes problematic when constantly triggered by negative thinking, stress, or worry. When the brain is operating in this heightened state of readiness, it becomes more negative, obsessive, and constantly alert. As a result, the mind struggles to relax. This makes falling asleep difficult and, even when sleep does occur, the brain often cannot relax deeply enough to process unresolved thoughts, emotions, and feelings. The processing of emotional material primarily takes place during the dreaming phase of sleep, known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. During this, the brain files away experiences, regulates emotional responses, and clears mental “backlogs” accumulated during waking hours. However, REM sleep typically accounts for only around 20% of the overall sleep cycle. When someone experiences prolonged anxiety, the brain may attempt to overcompensate by increasing its demand for REM processing. Unfortunately, if this demand becomes excessive, the brain will often wake itself up, rather than remain in REM sleep. This is why many people find themselves wide awake at three o’clock in the morning, feeling restless, anxious, and unable to drift back to sleep. 32. What does the author suggest in paragraph 3 by comparing worry to a polar bear attack? A. Worry is more difficult to control than fear of animals. B. The brain uses the same survival mechanism in both situations. C. Worry helps the brain prepare for possible dangers in advance. D. The brain cannot tell the difference between real and imagined threats. 33. What can be learned about REM sleep? A. It mainly provides the body with deep physical rest and recovery. B. It temporarily shuts down the brain’s responses to external events. C. It strengthens logical thinking and problem-solving while sleeping. D. It helps the brain manage daily experiences and handle emotional challenges. 34. Why do people become fully awake in the middle of the night yet still not emotionally refreshed? A. Because they sleep too long and lose natural alertness. B. Because they do not enter REM sleep during the night. C. Because their brain processes too much emotional material during sleep. D. Because their brain is forcibly awakened by overwhelming processing demands. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Sleep vs Stress: Why Worry Can Reduce the Quality of Your Rest. B. Sleep vs Survival Mode: Why Your Brain Might Be Battling You at Bedtime. C. Threat vs Daily Worry: Why the Brain Responds as if Danger Were Present. D. REM Sleep vs Anxiety: Why Emotional Processing Is Interrupted During the Night. 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。 How To Gamify Your Routines Gamifying your routines isn’t about being more disciplined; it’s about designing systems that make follow-through easier. Here’s how to add gameplay into your day, in a way that’s simple, flexible and helps you stay focused. ____36____ Getting creative can make difficult tasks, or the things we tend to put off, feel more manageable and engaging.

Super Science Week was the best because he would present an experiment. If Mrs. Watson accepted it, he’d be in the science fair. Science was his thing! “I will suspend an egg in water,” Blake announced. He poured salt into water, added more water, and dropped an egg. But the egg sank. Blake’s face felt hot. “Look! Blake’s blushing!” Kate squealed. The next day, Blake tried again. “I will make purple worms dance.” He mixed vinegar and food coloring, added cooked spaghetti, then dropped in baking soda. Bubbles foamed over, soaking Mrs. Watson’s grade book. The worms sat limply (柔软地) at the bottom. “I think this could have been great, Blake.” She wiped purple goo (粘性物) off her fingers with a tissue while trying to smile. “Blake’s blushing again!” Perry laughed. “Maybe science just isn’t your thing.” But science was his thing! His uncle was a science teacher. His mom worked in a medical lab. His brother studied chemistry. His family grew scientists! The third day, Blake tried clinging salt and pepper. He scattered salt and pepper, rubbed a spoon with wool, and announced, “The spoon will lift them.” But he sneezed. Salt and pepper flew everywhere. Blushing, he looked helplessly at Mrs. Watson. She forced a smile, “You were really close, Blake. But I have to decide tomorrow morning. Keep trying!” Blake’s heart felt heavy. Science was his thing… wasn’t it? He sat up in bed that night, unable to sleep. He just had to be in that science fair! But the only thing he could do right was blush. A smile grew on Blake’s face. He had it! Blake jumped out of bed to prepare for tomorrow. 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 next morning, Blake marched to the front of the class wearing mouse ears. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Watson clapped the loudest, “Blake, this will be perfect for the science fair on Monday.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★考试结束前 2025学年第二学期丽水发展共同体期中联考 高二年级英语学科 试题 考生须知： 1．本卷共10页满分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纸上，写在试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，只需上交答题纸。 选择题部分 第一部分：听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。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. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What does the woman want to do with the scarf?

Mine was just so ordinary compared to yours. M: Thanks! My original idea was a simple choose-your-own-adventure game! But over the past two years, I’ve turned it into a multi-path novel. W: You mean interactive fiction — giving your readers choices to decide what happens next? M: Yeah! You seem surprised. W: I am. I guess! M: I know! Some think interactive writing is just for games, but it’s actually creative. It pushes me to imagine all possible choices and their different endings. W: Oh? M: Yeah! Each decision requires a new plot branch, so I’ve learned to plan stories step by step. Plus, sharing it online lets me see which paths readers prefer — their choices teach me what’s attractive. W: That sounds complex! M: It is! But tracking readers’ favorite paths helps me balance creativity and clearness. Some even suggest new branches! W: That would actually be helpful! My stories feel one-directional, and I never know if they’re truly interesting. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 13. What time will the man arrive? A. At 7:15 p.m. B. At 7:30 p.m. C.

You’ll need to leave 15 minutes early. M: Is it? Why? W: It’s March, the toad (蟾蜍) season! M: What? W: They close the road for about six weeks every year to ensure toads and other animals can reach their breeding (繁殖) grounds safely. They’ve done it for years now. M: Wow! I didn’t know about that. Six weeks, though? That must be rather inconvenient for those of you living in this neighborhood. W: A little, but it’s worth it. My dad volunteers with the rescue group. He says around 60% of the animals used to get run over before laying their eggs. Now, it’s down to about 3%. M: Wow, that’s amazing! W: It’s all thanks to local people who go out in the cold and wet every night to keep them safe. M: I assume your dad’s not volunteering tonight, though? W: He’d better not be. He’s bringing my birthday cake! 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What is the main topic of the talk? A. The career advice given by a disabled person. B.

B 【解析】 【原文】When Jessica Cox was born without arms in 1983, doctors told her parents it was unlikely their daughter would ever lead a “normal” life. And to be fair, they weren’t wrong. Cox’s life certainly hasn’t been normal! Cox has her parents to thank for her can-do attitude. Instead of pitying her, they encouraged her to find her own ways of doing things. For Cox, this meant learning to do everything with her feet, from typing to playing the piano to filling her car with gas. Mastering these everyday skills may seem challenging enough, but Cox wasn’t satisfied with simple independence. She learned to surf and took part in long-distance cycle races. But her greatest achievement came in 2008, when she became the world’s first armless pilot! Nowadays, Cox works as a speaker and fights for disability rights around the world. She believes we should never let fear take away our opportunities. With determination and courage, there’s nothing we can’t do. 第二部分：阅读理解（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A From a Dutch beach break to a forest cabin near Paris, there’s no flight or car required on these relaxing journeys.

(双人间起价212欧元，包含餐费)”和Eco Yoga Trip in Belgium部分中“Double rooms start from €163 which covers accommodation, breakfast, and Wi-Fi. (双人间起价163欧元，包含住宿、早餐和无线网络)”可知，Beach Fun in Zeeland和Eco Yoga Trip in Belgium提供包含早餐的双人间，无需额外付费。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Eco Yoga Trip in Belgium部分中“Indrani Lodge... serves fresh healthy food from its own garden. (Indrani Lodge……提供来自自家花园的新鲜健康食物)”可知，Indrani Lodge提供用自家花园食材制作的食物。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“From a Dutch beach break to a forest cabin near Paris, there’s no flight or car required on these relaxing journeys. (从荷兰的海滩度假到巴黎附近的森林小屋，这些放松的旅程不需要飞机或汽车)”以及下文对四个旅行目的地住宿价格、交通方式和特色活动的详细介绍可推知，这类内容最可能出现在旅游指南中。 B I have always felt a deep pull to travel solo, to let my adventurous spirit lead the way. That longing lingered for years, but life got in the way. Family, work, responsibilities — they quietened the voice until it became barely a whisper. Then, I turned 60, and the voice grew louder; but I worried it was too late, that I’d missed my chance. Around then, I started working with Jack, a counselling client with the same restless energy. He wanted to quit his job to see the world, and talking with him felt like speaking to a mirror, forcing me to confront my fear of leaving my safe, comfortable life. It wasn’t until Jack announced he was ready to build a better-fitting life that I felt inspired to take the leap, planning a solo trip along Australia’s western coast. The real test came when I booked my flights and accommodation. Part of me secretly hoped the payment might fail, giving me time to reconsider. But as a counsellor, I’ve seen too many cling to familiar routines long after they stop serving them. As my booking went through, I knew that stepping into uncertainty, at any age, opens the door to growth, confidence, and joy. It’s not easy, but every step brings greater reward. My family’s encouragement made this easier. My steady husband hugged me and said, “You’ll regret it if you don’t go.” My adult children were thrilled and called me courageous. Of course, fear naturally holds us back, but facing it is the first step to real breakthroughs. Courage is less about conquering fear, more about trusting yourself amid uncertainty. Writing this from the airport, about to board my flight to Australia, I know fortune favors the brave. It may not be easy to overcome the fear of solo travel, but it’s better to live boldly than to let dreams fade without giving it a go. 24. Which of the following statements about the author is true? A. She started her career as a counsellor after meeting her client Jack. B. She believed age is an unbreakable barrier for exploring the world. C. She finally gave up the trip because her payment failed to go through. D. She put her personal dream aside for years because of family and work. 25. What directly inspired the author to plan her solo trip? A. Her failed flight booking. B. Her client Jack’s decision. C. Her 60th birthday reflection. D. Her family’s encouragement. 26. Why did the author secretly hope her flight payment would fail? A. She was unwilling to go on the solo trip. B. She needed more time to reconsider the route. C. She doubted her ability to handle the trip alone. D. She was not fully ready to leave her comfort zone. 27. What does the author want to convey in the passage? A. Fortune comes to those acting without fear. B. Bravery conquers the fear that accompanies uncertainty. C. Courage involves acting even when you want to hold back. D. Boldness relies on encouragement from family members. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述作者多年来因家庭和工作搁置独自旅行的梦想，60岁时受咨询客户杰克决定改变生活的启发，克服对未知的恐惧，勇敢踏上独自前往澳大利亚西海岸旅行的征程，感悟勇气的真谛。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“I have always felt a deep pull to travel solo, to let my adventurous spirit lead the way. That longing lingered for years, but life got in the way. Family, work, responsibilities — they quietened the voice until it became barely a whisper.(我一直有一种强烈的独自旅行的冲动，让我的冒险精神引领前行。这种渴望萦绕多年，但生活阻碍了我。家庭、工作、责任——它们让这种渴望的声音逐渐减弱，直至几近无声)”可知，作者因家庭和工作，将个人梦想搁置多年。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“It wasn’t until Jack announced he was ready to build a better-fitting life that I felt inspired to take the leap, planning a solo trip along Australia’s western coast.(直到杰克宣布他准备打造更适合自己的生活，我才受到鼓舞，决定迈出这一步，计划独自沿着澳大利亚西海岸旅行)”可知，是客户杰克的决定直接激励作者计划独自旅行。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The real test came when I booked my flights and accommodation. Part of me secretly hoped the payment might fail, giving me time to reconsider. But as a counsellor, I’ve seen too many cling to familiar routines long after they stop serving them.(真正的考验在我预订航班和住宿时来临。我内心有一部分暗暗希望支付可能会失败，这样我就有时间重新考虑。但作为一名咨询师，我见过太多人在熟悉的生活模式不再适合自己后，仍长久地执着于它)”可知，作者暗暗希望支付失败，是因为她还没有完全准备好离开自己的舒适区。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Of course, fear naturally holds us back, but facing it is the first step to real breakthroughs. Courage is less about conquering fear, more about trusting yourself amid uncertainty.(当然，恐惧自然会阻碍我们，但面对它是真正突破的第一步。勇气不在于战胜恐惧，而更多地在于在不确定性中相信自己)”以及全文作者克服恐惧踏上旅程的经历可知，作者想传达的是即使想退缩，也要鼓起勇气行动。 C Symbolic of beauty, pride, and wealth in some cultures, peacocks are often associated with being confident and attention-grabbing. So, perhaps it’s no surprise that these striking creatures can be used in a metaphor to illustrate complex family dynamics. Being honest about the ups and downs of family life isn’t something you’ll usually hear from a “peacock parent”. Instead, they’ll project the “perfect family”, showing off their child’s talents in public, while criticizing them behind closed doors when disappointed. You may have heard the expression “as proud as a peacock”, to suggest self-importance or attention-grabbing behaviour. In relation to parenting, this can be interpreted as narcissistic (自恋的) parenting, characterized by poor understanding, control, emotional dependency, and a pervasive preoccupation with feeling powerful or special within the family dynamics. The roots of this arrogant behaviour stem from the narcissistic wound of low or fragile self-worth, counsellor Olena Chechel notes, explaining how this leads to children being seen as self-extensions or objects to fulfil the success of the peacock parent. The child must be perceived as acceptable, shiny, or significant, as this all ties back to them. Olena goes on to explain that due to these parental expectations, the child may struggle to learn about their own interests, explore their curiosities, or simply be a child. They can soon realize that having an authentic self is detrimental to the relationship, and, indeed, that their caregiver can quickly pull back their love. Growing up with a narcissistic parent can feel like being trapped in a web, but a first step to break free from its effects in adulthood is self-compassion. This mindful awareness can involve learning how to move away from the inner critic, following your interests, and speaking more kindly to yourself. Olena also recommends redefining the relationship if the parent is causing distress: “Instead of bringing emotion into the relationship with the hope of being understood, it can be helpful to find boundaries that will make you feel safer in the dynamic. If the relationship is causing harm, you may need to limit contact. This is something we get to do as adults, but can’t do as children. It can be healing to make that choice.” 28. The author mentions peacocks at the beginning of the passage mainly to _________. A. explain why peacocks are admired in many cultures B. describe how animal behaviour reflects human family relationships C. introduce an image that helps readers understand a certain type of parent D. show that metaphors based on animals are common in English expressions 29. Which of the following statements about peacock parents is true? A. They treat their children as a reflection of themselves. B. They worry that others may judge their child negatively. C. They hope public praise will boost children’s confidence. D. They believe strong performance can make their children stand out. 30. The underlined word” detrimental” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to _________. A. harmful B. unnecessary C. sensitive D. irrelevant 31. What does Olena recommend for those dealing with distressing peacock parents in the last paragraph? A. To cut off all contact with their parents immediately. B. To wait until their parents recognize the harm they have caused. C. To step back from the relationship and create space when it becomes damaging. D. To express their emotions openly in hopes of being understood by their parents. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】文章通过“孔雀父母”这一比喻，介绍了自恋型父母的行为特征及其对孩子的负面影响，并提供了应对建议。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Symbolic of beauty, pride, and wealth in some cultures, peacocks are often associated with being confident and attention-grabbing. So, perhaps it’s no surprise that these striking creatures can be used in a metaphor to illustrate complex family dynamics. (在一些文化中，孔雀象征着美丽、骄傲与财富，常与自信和引人注目联系在一起。因此，用这种引人注目的生物来比喻复杂的家庭动态或许并不令人意外。)”和第二段中“Being honest about the ups and downs of family life isn’t something you’ll usually hear from a “peacock parent”. Instead, they’ll project the “perfect family”, showing off their child’s talents in public, while criticizing them behind closed doors when disappointed. (坦诚地谈论家庭生活的起伏，通常不会从“孔雀型父母”口中听到。相反，他们会展现“完美家庭”的形象，在公共场合炫耀孩子的才能，而在关起门来感到失望时则加以批评。)”可知，作者在文章开头提到孔雀是为了引入一个帮助读者理解某类父母的形象。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“explaining how this leads to children being seen as self-extensions or objects to fulfil the success of the peacock parent. (解释这会如何导致孩子被视为自我的延伸，或被视为实现“孔雀型父母”成功的工具。)”可知，孔雀父母将孩子视为自身的投射或延伸。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Olena goes on to explain that due to these parental expectations, the child may struggle to learn about their own interests, explore their curiosities, or simply be a child. They can soon realize that having an authentic self is detrimental to the relationship, and, indeed, that their caregiver can quickly pull back their love. (Olena进一步解释说，由于父母的这些期望，孩子可能难以了解自己的兴趣、探索自己的好奇心，甚至难以单纯地做个孩子。他们很快就能意识到，拥有真实的自我对这段关系是detrimental的，而且，他们的照顾者会迅速收回他们的爱。)”可知，拥有真实自我会导致他们的照顾者(父母)迅速收回他们的爱，会对亲子关系产生负面影响。故划线词意为“有害的”，与“harmful”同义。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Olena also recommends redefining the relationship if the parent is causing distress: “Instead of bringing emotion into the relationship with the hope of being understood, it can be helpful to find boundaries that will make you feel safer in the dynamic. If the relationship is causing harm, you may need to limit contact. (Olena还建议，如果父母的行为给伴侣带来痛苦，就应重新界定双方的关系：“与其在关系中注入情感以期获得理解，不如设定明确的界限，让自己在这种关系中感到更安全。如果这段关系正在造成伤害，你可能需要减少彼此的接触。”)”可知，Olena建议在关系造成伤害时后退一步，创造空间。 D One of the primary causes of insomnia and poor sleep quality is negative thinking, as explored in 2023 research in the Journal of Anxiety Disorders. While it may seem harmless at first, persistent negative thoughts gradually increase anxiety levels, placing strain on the brain’s ability to regulate itself effectively. Over time, this can lead to a loss of what we might describe as “intellectual control”. Although we each have one brain, humans effectively operate with two distinct modes of thinking. The first is the intellectual, logical, and rational side of the brain, which allows us to analyse situations calmly and make reasoned decisions. The second is more primitive, and watchful, whose primary function is survival. When anxiety levels rise, the brain automatically shifts control away from the intellectual mind, and into this more primitive mode. This shift is the same automatic response that would occur if we were faced with a genuine threat or emergency. Imagine encountering a hungry, restless polar bear determined to attack you. Your brain would instantly prioritize survival, setting aside logic, and placing your body on high alert. While this response is invaluable in life-threatening situations, it becomes problematic when constantly triggered by negative thinking, stress, or worry. When the brain is operating in this heightened state of readiness, it becomes more negative, obsessive, and constantly alert. As a result, the mind struggles to relax. This makes falling asleep difficult and, even when sleep does occur, the brain often cannot relax deeply enough to process unresolved thoughts, emotions, and feelings. The processing of emotional material primarily takes place during the dreaming phase of sleep, known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. During this, the brain files away experiences, regulates emotional responses, and clears mental “backlogs” accumulated during waking hours. However, REM sleep typically accounts for only around 20% of the overall sleep cycle. When someone experiences prolonged anxiety, the brain may attempt to overcompensate by increasing its demand for REM processing. Unfortunately, if this demand becomes excessive, the brain will often wake itself up, rather than remain in REM sleep. This is why many people find themselves wide awake at three o’clock in the morning, feeling restless, anxious, and unable to drift back to sleep. 32. What does the author suggest in paragraph 3 by comparing worry to a polar bear attack? A. Worry is more difficult to control than fear of animals. B. The brain uses the same survival mechanism in both situations. C. Worry helps the brain prepare for possible dangers in advance. D. The brain cannot tell the difference between real and imagined threats. 33. What can be learned about REM sleep? A. It mainly provides the body with deep physical rest and recovery. B. It temporarily shuts down the brain’s responses to external events. C. It strengthens logical thinking and problem-solving while sleeping. D. It helps the brain manage daily experiences and handle emotional challenges. 34. Why do people become fully awake in the middle of the night yet still not emotionally refreshed? A. Because they sleep too long and lose natural alertness. B. Because they do not enter REM sleep during the night. C. Because their brain processes too much emotional material during sleep. D. Because their brain is forcibly awakened by overwhelming processing demands. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Sleep vs Stress: Why Worry Can Reduce the Quality of Your Rest. B. Sleep vs Survival Mode: Why Your Brain Might Be Battling You at Bedtime. C. Threat vs Daily Worry: Why the Brain Responds as if Danger Were Present. D. REM Sleep vs Anxiety: Why Emotional Processing Is Interrupted During the Night. 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要解释了负面思维如何通过激活大脑的原始生存模式导致失眠，并揭示了REM睡眠在情绪处理中的作用及焦虑引发夜醒的机制。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“This shift is the same automatic response that would occur if we were faced with a genuine threat or emergency. Imagine encountering a hungry, restless polar bear determined to attack you. Your brain would instantly prioritize survival, setting aside logic, and placing your body on high alert. (这种转换与我们在面对真实威胁或紧急情况时的自动反应相同。想象一下遇到一只饥饿不安、决意要攻击你的北极熊：你的大脑会立即将生存放在首位，抛开逻辑，让身体进入高度戒备状态)”可知，将忧虑比作北极熊袭击是为了说明大脑在面对忧虑和真实危险时会启动相同的生存机制。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“The processing of emotional material primarily takes place during the dreaming phase of sleep, known as rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. During this, the brain files away experiences, regulates emotional responses, and clears mental “backlogs” accumulated during waking hours. (情绪信息的处理主要发生在睡眠的做梦阶段，即快速眼动睡眠期(REM)。在此期间，大脑会归档经历、调节情绪反应，并清除清醒时积累的心理“积压事务”)”可知，REM睡眠帮助大脑处理日常经历和应对情绪挑战。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“When someone experiences prolonged anxiety, the brain may attempt to overcompensate by increasing its demand for REM processing. Unfortunately, if this demand becomes excessive, the brain will often wake itself up... (当人经历长期焦虑时，大脑会试图通过增加对REM处理的需求来过度补偿。不幸的是，如果这种需求变得过大，大脑常常会自己醒来……)”可知，人们半夜完全清醒是因为大脑被过量的处理需求强行唤醒。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章第二段中“Although we each have one brain, humans effectively operate with two distinct modes of thinking... When anxiety levels rise, the brain automatically shifts control away from the intellectual mind, and into this more primitive mode.(虽然我们每个人都有一个大脑，但人类实际上以两种不同的思维方式运作……当焦虑水平上升时，大脑会自动将控制权从理性思维转移到这种更原始的模式)”指出大脑在焦虑状态下会切换到更原始的生存模式，随后第四段进一步说明这种原始生存模式被持续触发后，会导致大脑难以放松，第六段指出因REM睡眠处理需求过大而将人唤醒。全文围绕“睡眠与生存模式”的冲突展开，解释了大脑为何在休息时与自身对抗。故B项“Sleep vs Survival Mode: Why Your Brain Might Be Battling You at Bedtime(睡眠与生存模式：为什么你的大脑可能在临睡前与你作斗争)”最能概括文章内容，适合作为标题。 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。 How To Gamify Your Routines Gamifying your routines isn’t about being more disciplined; it’s about designing systems that make follow-through easier.

D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Lynn Segebart在新年第一天勇敢救助被刺伤者的故事。 【41题详解】 考查动词。句意：当其他人忽略这些噪音时，61岁的Segebart放下水冲出了门。A. followed跟随；B. ignored忽略；C. questioned质疑；D. shared分享。根据前文“when he heard screams outside. While others”和后文“Segebart, 61, put down the water and rushed out the door”可知，前后文为对比关系，与后文Segebart主动冲出去救人相对，旁人都置之不理。 【42题详解】 考查动词。句意：他所看到的让他震惊：油泵旁一名男子正被持刀刺伤。A. puzzled使困惑；B. moved使感动；C. shocked使震惊；D. disappointed使失望。根据后文“a man was being stabbed”可知，看到有人被刺，Segebart感到震惊。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：Segebart毫不犹豫地跑向搏斗现场。A. hesitation犹豫；B. warning警告；C. notice通知；D. permission允许。根据后文“Segebart ran toward the struggle”可知，Segebart毫不犹豫地跑向搏斗现场。without hesitation意为“毫不犹豫地”。 【44题详解】 考查副词。句意：袭击者显然体型更大、更年轻，他正拿着一把刀跪在受害者身上。A. decidedly显然地；B. rarely很少地；C. merely仅仅；D. deliberately故意地。根据后文“larger and younger, was kneeling over his victim with a knife. Though smaller and older, Segebart ran up behind the attacker”可知，此处客观对比两人外形差距，凸显歹徒更强壮、更年轻。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：尽管Segebart体型更小、年纪更大，但他从袭击者身后跑过去，用全身的重量压在袭击者的背上，两人都向前倒去，刀仍然紧紧地握在袭击者的手中。A. balance平衡；B. strength力量；C. speed速度；D. weight重量。根据后文“onto the attacker’s back, and the two of them fell forward”可知，Segebart用全身重量扑倒歹徒，即用全身的重量压在袭击者的背上。 【46题详解】 考查形容词。句意：“如果我不能把刀从他手里夺过来，”Segebart想，“也许我可以让它不能用。”A. unusual不寻常的；B. unstable不稳定的；C. unusable不能用的；D. unreliable不可靠的。根据后文“Finally, the blade bent, making it no longer effective for stabbing.”可知，最终，刀刃弯曲变形，再也无法用来刺伤他人。此处指Segebart想让刀变得不能用。 【47题详解】 考查动词。句意：他用尽全力，在刀柄附近抓住了刀。A. reached到达；B. seized抓住；C. noticed注意到；D. touched触摸。根据后文“the knife near its hilt (把柄)”可知，想要掰坏刀具，需要用力抓紧。 【48题详解】 考查形容词。句意：疼痛很剧烈。A. slight轻微的；B. intense剧烈的；C. fragile脆弱的；D. bearable可忍受的。根据上文“Furious, the attacker bit Segebart’s arm.”可知，袭击者咬了Segebart的胳膊，所以疼痛很剧烈。 【49题详解】 考查形容词。句意：由于双手仍在缠斗、奋力控制那把刀，Segebart只好用头猛撞歹徒的头部，直到对方松开凶器。A. absorbed全神贯注；B. stuck卡住；C. occupied忙于；D. injured受伤的。根据后文“in the struggle for control of the knife, Segebart used his head to hit the man’s skull”可知，此处描述Segebart的双手都在对抗中无法腾出，即忙着对抗，所以才只好用头猛撞歹徒的头部。 【50题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：同上。A. took care of照顾；B. caught sight of看见；C. let go of松开；D. made use of利用。根据前文“Segebart used his head to hit the man’s skull until he”和后文“the weapon”可知，头部撞击迫使歹徒松开手里的刀。 【51题详解】 考查名词。句意：最终，受害者接受了伤情医疗护理，而袭击者则面临法律后果。A. attention注意力，照顾；B. insurance保险；C. advice建议；D. inspection检查。根据上文“the victim received medical”和下文“for his injuries”可知，受害者因伤接受了医疗护理。medical attention意为“医疗护理”。 【52题详解】 考查连词。句意：同上。A. though虽然；B. until直到；C. while然而；D. after在……之后。根据前文“the victim received medical ______ for his injuries”和后文“the attacker faced legal results”可知，受害者和袭击者的情况形成对比，应用while。 【53题详解】 考查形容词。句意：至于Segebart，他是一个温和、说话轻声细语的人，以前从未与人发生过冲突。A. strong-willed意志坚强的；B. bad-tempered脾气坏的；C. broad-minded心胸开阔的；D. mild-mannered温和的。根据后文“and soft-spoken man who had never before been in a conflict”可知，Segebart从未与人发生冲突，是一个温和的人。 【54题详解】 考查名词。句意：那么，他为什么要冲进别人的险境中，明知道自己可能会被杀呢？A. business生意；B. emergency紧急情况；C. dream梦想；D. project项目。根据上文“So why did he rush into someone else’s”和歹徒持刀伤人的描述可知，持刀伤人属于突发危险紧急事件，Segebart冲进了别人被刺的险境中。 【55题详解】 考查名词。句意：他的行为，关心他人胜过关心自己，表现出了极大的勇气和关心。A. curiosity好奇心；B. patience耐心；C. honesty诚实；D. bravery勇气。根据上文“His action, caring for others more than himself, showed very great”和他勇敢对抗持刀歹徒的描述可知，Segebart的行为表现出了极大的勇气。 非选择题部分 注意：将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。 Paper-weaving painting is a traditional art form with a long history, celebrated especially in Gansu, China.

Cancelling monthly exams might relieve short-term pressure, but it could also take away a useful routine that helps many of us stay on track. Rather than mere stressors, I see them as invaluable opportunities for self-reflection. A well-designed test does more than measure performance — it forces us to organize fragmented knowledge, sharpen time-management skills, and confront our weaknesses head-on. Without such regular checkpoints, it’s all too easy to fall into a cycle of procrastination and last-minute cramming. That said, I agree that the current exam culture needs refining. Perhaps we should advocate for exams that prioritize learning over ranking. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生根据学校文论坛上有一位同学发帖说：“Monthly exams cause too much stress and should be cancelled.”，回帖发表自己的看法。 【详解】1. 词汇积累： 衡量；评估：measure → assess 减缓：relieve→ease 帮助：help → assist 而不是；而非：rather than → instead of 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Without such regular checkpoints, it’s all too easy to fall into a cycle of procrastination and last-minute cramming. 拓展句：If we had no such regular checkpoints, we would easily fall into a cycle of procrastination and last-minute cramming.. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Cancelling monthly exams might relieve short-term pressure, but it could also take away a useful routine that helps many of us stay on track.（运用了that引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】That said, I agree that the current exam culture needs refining.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第二节：读后续写（共1小题，满分25分） 67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 Blushing Blake Blake loved science. Super Science Week was the best because he would present an experiment. If Mrs. Watson accepted it, he’d be in the science fair. Science was his thing! “I will suspend an egg in water,” Blake announced. He poured salt into water, added more water, and dropped an egg. But the egg sank. Blake’s face felt hot. “Look! Blake’s blushing!” Kate squealed. The next day, Blake tried again. “I will make purple worms dance.” He mixed vinegar and food coloring, added cooked spaghetti, then dropped in baking soda. Bubbles foamed over, soaking Mrs. Watson’s grade book. The worms sat limply (柔软地) at the bottom. “I think this could have been great, Blake.” She wiped purple goo (粘性物) off her fingers with a tissue while trying to smile. “Blake’s blushing again!” Perry laughed. “Maybe science just isn’t your thing.” But science was his thing! His uncle was a science teacher. His mom worked in a medical lab. His brother studied chemistry. His family grew scientists! The third day, Blake tried clinging salt and pepper. He scattered salt and pepper, rubbed a spoon with wool, and announced, “The spoon will lift them.” But he sneezed. Salt and pepper flew everywhere. Blushing, he looked helplessly at Mrs. Watson. She forced a smile, “You were really close, Blake. But I have to decide tomorrow morning. Keep trying!” Blake’s heart felt heavy. Science was his thing… wasn’t it? He sat up in bed that night, unable to sleep. He just had to be in that science fair! But the only thing he could do right was blush. A smile grew on Blake’s face. He had it! Blake jumped out of bed to prepare for tomorrow. 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 next morning, Blake marched to the front of the class wearing mouse ears. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mrs. Watson clapped the loudest, “Blake, this will be perfect for the science fair on Monday.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： The next morning, Blake marched to the front of the class wearing mouse ears. He felt ridiculous and probably it looked too. Everyone cracked up, and Blake’s face burned. He could feel the blush spreading, “Yes, I’m blushing. Today, I’m going to show you the science behind blushing.” Blake announced. Eyes widening and whispers erupting, everyone leaned forward, curiosity sparkling in their gaze. A surge of determination replaced his usual nervousness. He walked around the classroom, giving each student a closer look at his red face. Then he propped up a poster board showing the blood vessels and explaining the science behind flushing. The class gathered around to admire his drawings. When Blake finished, the class erupted in applause. Mrs. Watson clapped the loudest, “Blake, this will be perfect for the science fair on Monday.” Jumping in the air with a triumphant grin, Blake pumped his fist, his face glowing not with blush but with pride. Approaching him with hesitant smiles, Perry and Kate admitted, “Maybe science is your thing after all — we’re sorry we joked.” Blake laughed, his mouse ears wiggling. “Science is my thing,” he said, “even when it’s about blushing!” Mrs. Watson nodded, smiling. “That’s the spirit,” she said. “Now let’s get ready for the fair!” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述布莱克热爱科学，一心想凭借实验入选科学展览会。他接连三次尝试不同实验均接连失败，还遭到同学调侃，内心备受打击、倍感失落。但他没有放弃，深夜灵光一闪，想到了新办法，决心继续努力争取参赛机会。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天早上，布莱克戴着老鼠耳朵，大步走到教室前方。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：布莱克顶着尴尬，以自身容易脸红的特点展示相关科学知识，内容精彩，最终赢得全班掌声。 ②由第二段首句内容“沃森老师鼓掌最为热烈：“布莱克，这个项目非常适合周一的科学展览会。””可以预测续写这段主要内容：沃森老师认可布莱克的展示并准许他参展，同学向他道歉，布莱克重拾自信，积极准备科学展。 2.续写线索：布莱克走到教室前方——展示脸红相关科学知识——赢得全班掌声——沃森老师认可布莱克的展示——布莱克重拾自信 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.宣布：announce/declare ②.替代：replace/take the place of ③.欣赏：admire/appreciate 情绪类 ①.焦虑：nervousness/anxiety ②.迟疑的：hesitant/tentative 【点睛】[高分句型1].
