My friends cast doubt on the plan, for the market was crowded with noisy vendors (小贩) and filled with pungent food smells. Their concerns proved well-founded on its opening day. Sandwiched between a pork stall and a tofu shop, my bookstore attracted barely any attention. With few customers stepping in, I felt disheartened and began to reflect on what went wrong. Never had I anticipated such a frigid beginning. It didn’t take me long to figure out where the problem lay. I had stocked my shelves with classic novels and poetry I cherished, yet they failed to meet the needs of local residents. I therefore resolved to make a thorough change. In place of those books, I displayed home-style cookbooks, stories about street food, and food-related picture books for children. I sincerely hoped these new books would win over the locals. I also launched a “Book-for-Veggie Exchange” activity in the store. The new adjustment turned out to be highly successful. Local people soon took to this creative idea. A young mother came first with a carrot to exchange for a picture book, and before long, my counter was overflowing with fresh vegetables. The tofu vendor’s daughter, who had watched silently for weeks on end, finally stepped forward to borrow a comic. Months later, the bookstore became a warm part of market life, with the scent of books blending gently with the fresh aroma of farm produce. This experience reshaped my understanding of books. I once believed books could only shine in quiet places, but now I have seen their real value. It lies in connecting with people’s everyday life: books can blend perfectly into daily routines and warm our hearts. They become meaningful and touching when combined with the hustle and bustle, food and laughter of everyday life. 4. What problem did the author face last summer? A. Doubt among close friends. B. Strong food smells in the market. C. Low store traffic in the bookstore. D. Disturbance from nearby vendors. 5. How did the author attract customers to the bookstore? A. By selling local vegetables. B. By offering reader-specific books. C. By stocking favorite classics. D. By organizing book-swap activities. 6. What can we learn about the bookstore in paragraph 3? A. It aimed at a profitable trade in farm produce. B. It funded the young children in the community. C. It reflected a harmonious integration into market life. D. It served as a popular gathering spot in the neighborhood. 7. What has the author learned from opening the bookstore? A. Better late than never. B. Books are for life, not for shelves. C. Think outside the box. D. Reading connects soul to daily life. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者去年夏天在热闹的食品市场开了一家小书店，起初因书籍选择不当导致顾客稀少，后来通过调整书籍种类和开展“蔬菜换书”活动，成功吸引了当地居民，使书店成为市场生活的一部分，并从中领悟到书籍与日常生活紧密相连的真正价值。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Sandwiched between a pork stall and a tofu shop, my bookstore attracted barely any attention. With few customers stepping in, I felt disheartened and began to reflect on what went wrong. (我的书店夹在一个猪肉摊和一个豆腐店之间，几乎没有引起任何注意。很少有顾客光顾，我感到很沮丧，开始反思哪里出了问题。)”可知，作者面临的问题是书店顾客稀少，即客流量低。故选C项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I had stocked my shelves with classic novels and poetry I cherished, yet they failed to meet the needs of local residents. I therefore resolved to make a thorough change. In place of those books, I displayed home-style cookbooks, stories about street food, and food-related picture books for children. (我在书架上摆满了我珍视的经典小说和诗歌，但它们未能满足当地居民的需求。因此，我决定彻底改变。我展示了家常菜谱、街头美食故事以及与食物相关的儿童图画书，以取代那些书。)”可知，作者通过提供符合当地居民需求的特定书籍来吸引顾客。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Months later, the bookstore became a warm part of market life, with the scent of books blending gently with the fresh aroma of farm produce. (几个月后，书店成为了市场生活中温暖的一部分，书香与农产品的清新香气轻轻交融。)”可知，书店与市场生活和谐融合，成为市场的一部分。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“I once believed books could only shine in quiet places, but now I have seen their real value. It lies in connecting with people’s everyday life: books can blend perfectly into daily routines and warm our hearts. (我曾经认为书籍只能在安静的地方发光，但现在我看到了它们的真正价值。它在于与人们的日常生活相联系：书籍可以完美地融入日常生活，温暖我们的心。)”可知，作者从开书店的经历中学到了书籍不仅仅是为了放在书架上，而是为了融入生活，与人们的日常生活紧密相连。故选B项。 C The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out. The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding. “The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not. It was shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary, used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length. They also appeared more comfortable writing in role. While pupils in the control group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one, children in the target group put themselves in Romeo’s shoes and expressed that character’s emotion. O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly. “It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists? O’Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare’s use of 20,000 words, compared with the everyday 2,000 words, gave a massive expansion of language into children’s lives, which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life. 8. What does the study encourage children to do? A. Perform Shakespeare’s works. B. Write their own original plays. C. Learn Shakespeare’s lines by heart. D. Watch professional acting on stage. 9. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its procedure. B. Its background. C. Its purpose. D. Its significance. 10. What impressed O’Hanlon most about the target group’s writing? A. Passage fluency. B. Emotional depth. C. Word complexity. D. Plot imagination. 11. What can be learned from the text? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Learning by doing works best. C. Reading makes a full man. D. Words are the voice of the mind. 【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项研究表明，通过戏剧方式教授莎士比亚作品能提升孩子的读写能力和情感理解力。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out.(这位来自埃文河畔斯特拉特福德的文法学校男生再次成为头条新闻，此前一项突破性的研究表明，莎士比亚确实有益于儿童的读写能力和情感发展，但前提是他们能把他演出来)”以及第二段中“The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding.(研究发现，以戏剧为基础的莎士比亚教学方法拓宽了孩子们的词汇量，提高了他们的写作质量，增强了他们的情感理解力)”可知，这项研究鼓励孩子们表演莎士比亚的作品。故选A。 【9题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not.(这项随机试验涉及45所公立小学的数百名五年级学生（9岁和10岁）。孩子们被分为目标组和对照组。两组都阅读了《罗密欧与朱丽叶》中的一段，并被要求以罗密欧的身份写一封信，讲述与朱丽叶分离后的感受。在写作之前，目标组参加了一个30分钟的以戏剧为基础的活动，而对照组没有)”可知，本段介绍了研究的参与对象、分组方式与具体实验步骤，即介绍了研究的过程。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly.(O’Hanlon说，最让她惊讶的是孩子们写作中表现出的情感理解力，他们表现出更深的同理心，更生动地表达情感)”可知，O’Hanlon对目标组写作印象最深刻的是情感深度。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding.(研究发现，以戏剧为基础的莎士比亚教学方法拓宽了孩子们的词汇量，提高了他们的写作质量，增强了他们的情感理解力)”以及倒数第二段中““It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added.(她补充道：“这可能与基于戏剧的过程有关，在这个过程中，你习惯于像角色一样思考和感受。”)”可推知，通过戏剧表演实践学习莎士比亚效果显著，体现“在实践中学习效果最佳”。故选B。 D The ocean may appear boundless. It’s easy to imagine that fish and other ocean creatures swim freely without restriction. That assumption, however, is mistaken. According to ecologist Karissa Lear, many ocean species stick to specific habitats and seldom go beyond them. This habit can cause unexpectedly big problems, especially when human-built structures get in the way. Take, for example, the green sawfish living near the mouth of the Ashburton River in Western Australia. In 2017, a large structure was built by the shore, stretching about 550 yards into the sea. As Lear had feared, the construction did harm the critically endangered green sawfish — they were unable to pass around the barrier. To Lear, this discovery supported a surprising new idea that ocean animals, much like land species, need a helping hand getting around human-built structures. On land, wildlife crossings are becoming more common. Green bridges, for instance, help bears and elk avoid a road in Canada’s Banff National Park. In 2022, a wildlife crossing in Washington State was used more than 5,000 times by animals such as deer and coyotes. Although the bridges are already popular on land, Lear says little attention has been paid to the idea of wildlife crossings designed to help ocean animals get around safely. For ocean animals, too many barriers can cut them off from important feeding sites. Overly limited movement can lead to the development of isolated groups that are more likely to go extinct. With more large structures planned for the Ashburton River area, Lear says the cumulative (累积的) effect of multiple barriers is a real concern for the green sawfish’s future. As the climate continues to change, paying attention to the needs of ocean animals is important. Many are moving farther north, and they need suitable habitats to move through. To address this, we can create crossings through human-built structures or protect habitats along their migration routes. As we continue to engineer the ocean, such efforts could go a long way toward protecting ocean life. 12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By detailing research findings. B. By describing a natural scene. C. By addressing public concerns. D. By challenging a common belief. 13. What effect did the structure near the Ashburton River have? A. It provided a new habitat for ocean life. B. It blocked the path of the green sawfish. C. It attracted more new species to the area. D. It drove the green sawfish into deep waters. 14. What does Lear imply about wildlife crossings? A. They have reduced road accidents on land. B. They will replace ocean barriers eventually. C. They have destroyed land animals’ habitats. D. They are urgently needed for ocean animals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Wildlife Crossings: From Land to Sea B. When Ocean Life Is in Danger C. The Sawfish That Lost Their Way Home D. Ocean Structures: No Harm Done 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了海洋动物因人类建造的结构面临生存障碍，呼吁建立海洋动物通道以保护其生存。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第一段中“The ocean may appear boundless. It’s easy to imagine that fish and other ocean creatures swim freely without restriction. That assumption, however, is mistaken.(海洋似乎无边无际。人们很容易想象鱼类和其他海洋生物可以不受限制地自由游动。然而，这种假设是错误的)”可知，作者通过挑战一个普遍的观念来引出问题。故选D。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“As Lear had feared, the construction did harm the critically endangered green sawfish — they were unable to pass around the barrier.(正如Lear所担心的那样，这项工程确实对极度濒危的绿锯鳐造成了伤害——它们无法绕过障碍物)”可知，阿什伯顿河附近的结构阻挡了绿锯鳐的路径。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第三段中“Although the bridges are already popular on land, Lear says little attention has been paid to the idea of wildlife crossings designed to help ocean animals get around safely.(尽管这种桥梁在陆地上已经很受欢迎，但Lear表示，专门为帮助海洋动物安全通行而设计的野生动物通道却很少受到关注)”以及第四段中“With more large structures planned for the Ashburton River area, Lear says the cumulative (累积的) effect of multiple barriers is a real concern for the green sawfish’s future.(随着阿什伯顿河地区计划建造更多的大型建筑，Lear表示，多重障碍的累积效应确实令人担忧绿锯鳐的未来)”可推知，Lear暗示海洋动物迫切需要野生动物通道。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。 根据第三段中“On land, wildlife crossings are becoming more common.(在陆地上，野生动物通道越来越普遍)”、最后一段中“To address this, we can create crossings through human-built structures or protect habitats along their migration routes.(为了解决这个问题，我们可以在人类建造的结构中建立通道，或者保护它们迁徙路线上的栖息地)”以及结合全文可知，本文主要介绍了海洋动物因人类建造的结构面临生存障碍，呼吁建立海洋动物通道以保护其生存。由此可知，A选项“野生动物通道：从陆地到海洋”最适合作为文章标题。故选A。 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。 In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language. ____16____ Verbal intensifiers (强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to. ____17____ According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception. ____18____ In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous. To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly. ____19____ Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions. This way, appropriate use of intensifiers will make our words more powerful and sincere. Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context. ____20____ However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty. Mastering them wisely helps us become more proficient and persuasive communicators. A. Proper use is a smart linguistic choice. B. These function words have great expressive value. C. You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions. D. Using intensifiers at will influences emotional expression. E. Intensifiers are used to simplify the meaning of other words. F. This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide. G. They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. G 19. C 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍语言中强化词的定义、特点、在不同语言中的应用及合理使用强化词的建议。 【16题详解】 根据上文“In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language.(在日常交流中，我们不仅交换逻辑信息，还交换情感、态度和内心状态。由于人类是情感动物，我们的决定，无论重大还是琐碎，往往更多地由情感驱动，而不是纯粹的理性。因此，为了清晰地表达强烈的情感，我们在日常语言中倾向于使用very、so和truly等词)”可知，此处应衔接上文“为表达强烈情感使用相关词汇”，引出强化词的出现，F选项“This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide.(这就是为什么世界各地的语言中会出现口头强化词的原因)”中的This指代上文“为表达强烈情感使用相关词汇”这一现象，引出下文对强化词的介绍，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Verbal intensifiers (强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to.(口头强化词是一种特殊的功能词，它们能增强所附着词汇的意义，尤其是情感意义)”以及下文“According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception.(根据Buzarov（1998）的观点，强化是非正式语言的一个稳定且重要的特征。awfully、deeply、tremendously和truly等词帮助说话者增强情感影响力，并影响听众的心理感知)”可知，此处应体现强化词的价值，B选项“These function words have great expressive value.(这些功能词具有很强的表达价值)”中的These function words指代上文的Verbal intensifiers，expressive value与下文strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception相呼应，符合语境。故选B项。 【18题详解】 根据下文“In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous.(在英语中，我们经常说“我非常感激”或“他极度疲惫”。其他语言也有类似的词：俄语中的очень，德语中的sehr，法语中的très。一些新的强化词甚至是通过组合单词创造出来的，比如fantastic和fabulous组合成的fantabulous)”可知，此处应总述强化词在不同语言中的使用及形式，G选项“They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms.(它们在不同语言中被广泛使用，并呈现出多种形式)”中的They指代强化词，across languages与下文不同语言的例子相呼应，diverse forms与下文“组合创造新强化词”相呼应，符合语境。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly.(为了充分利用强化词，我们应该有明确的目的使用它们。不要盲目地使用它们。)”以及下文“Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions.(将它们与你真诚的态度结合起来，专注于传达准确的情感)”可知，此处应体现使用强化词的正确方式，C选项“You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions.(你最好用它们来表达真实的想法和情感)”中的real ideas and emotions与下文genuine attitude、precise emotions相呼应，承接上文“不要盲目使用”，给出具体建议，符合语境。故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context.(强化词和其他语言工具一样，在合适的语境中效果最好)”以及下文“However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty.(然而，不必要地过度使用它们只会削弱它们的表达效果，使我们的话语听起来空洞)”可知，此处应体现合理使用强化词的重要性，A选项“Proper use is a smart linguistic choice.(合理使用是一种明智的语言选择)”承接上文“合适语境效果最好”，与下文“过度使用的弊端”形成对比，符合语境。故选A项。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I usually eat an apple on the drive home from work.

To my disappointment, I found an empty lot overgrown with weeds, where old furniture had been left and rainwater had gathered in muddy puddles (小水坑) on the ground. I stood there for a while, feeling sad about this wasted space. Then an idea came to me — what if we could turn this messy place into a small garden for everyone? That evening, I sent a message in our neighborhood chat group. I explained my plan and invited people to join me. Hours passed, but only two neighbors sent short replies saying “A good idea.” I felt a little discouraged. Just when I was about to give up, my phone lit up with a private message. It was from Mr. Wilson, an elderly man who lived alone in Building 3. I knew him by sight but had never spoken to him before. His message read: “I have some gardening tools and a few flower seeds. Can I help you?” I sent him a message, saying, “Yes. That's absolutely great.” We met at the empty lot the next Saturday morning. Mr. Wilson brought not only tools but also a small hand- drawn map. He pointed and said, “We can plant sunflowers here because they love sunlight, and we can put some easy- to- grow flowers near the path.” I was surprised by his knowledge. As we started cleaning together, he shared stories about the small garden he used to keep in his hometown. I realized he missed those days deeply. During the following weeks, we worked every weekend. The work was not easy. We had to remove the rubbish, clear the deep weeds and fill the muddy puddles with soil. Mr. Wilson showed me how to properly plant the seeds and water them. As we worked, more neighbors became interested. A young girl offered to paint signs for the garden; an old lady shared her gardening tips; and a couple helped build a simple fence. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Slowly, the garden started to take shape. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The garden quickly became a favorite spot for our community. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Slowly, the garden started to take shape. The muddy puddles disappeared, replaced by neat, small flower beds. The most eye-catching were the sunflowers. The empty ground was now covered with soft and green grass. We built a simple winding path using bricks and stones we found. The thrown-away furniture was gone, and in its place stood the new wooden bench and a small fence painted white. A young tree was planted in one corner, its new leaves gently swaying in the wind. Birds and butterflies started visiting, adding life and movement. The once dirty place was now full of life and beauty. The garden quickly became a favorite spot for our community. Every afternoon after school, children would run straight here to play. They loved chasing each other along the path, watching butterflies, or simply lying on the grass to look at the clouds. Parents sat on the bench or on mats, talking and laughing, while their children played nearby. Mr. Wilson was almost always there, patiently watering the plants. The garden was no longer just a place with plants; it became the one where people shared stories and built friendships. It taught us all that by working together, we could create not just a beautiful garden, but a warmer and closer community. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者某天发现社区角落有一片杂草丛生、堆满垃圾的空地，十分惋惜，便萌生了将其改造成社区花园的想法。起初在群里响应者寥寥，作者有些失落，独居的威尔逊先生却主动提供工具和种子。两人一起清理垃圾、除草、规划花园，他们的行动逐渐带动更多邻居加入。最终，脏乱的空地变成了生机勃勃的社区花园，不仅美化了环境，还让邻里之间交流增多、关系更亲密，让大家明白团结协作能创造美好与温暖。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“渐渐地，花园开始呈现出模样”可知，第一段可描写脏乱的空地变成了生机勃勃的社区花园。 ②由第二段首句内容“这个花园很快便成了我们社区的热门聚集地”可知，第二段可描写花园让邻里之间交流增多、关系更亲密，让大家明白团结协作能创造美好与温暖。 2.续写线索：花园变得美丽——花园充满生机和美丽——成为社区聚集地——改善邻里关系——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：be full of/be filled with ②消失：disappear/vanish ③取代：replace/take the place of 情绪类 ①吸引人的：eye-catching/attractive ②耐心地：patiently/with patience 【点睛】[高分句型1] Birds and butterflies started visiting, adding life and movement.（运用了现在分词作状语） [高分句型2] It taught us all that by working together, we could create not just a beautiful garden, but a warmer and closer community.（运用了that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 大湾区名校共同体2026届高考考前预测卷（二） 英 语 命题：大湾区研究院考试中心 2026.4 本试卷共10页，满分150分。考试时长120分钟。 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号、座位号填写在答题卡上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A TechForward is looking for local residents to test its new smart home assistant, a voice-controlled device designed to help users manage daily tasks such as setting reminders, controlling lights, checking the weather, and playing music.

B Last summer, I made a rather unconventional decision to run a small bookstore in the bustling food market of my neighborhood. My friends cast doubt on the plan, for the market was crowded with noisy vendors (小贩) and filled with pungent food smells. Their concerns proved well-founded on its opening day. Sandwiched between a pork stall and a tofu shop, my bookstore attracted barely any attention. With few customers stepping in, I felt disheartened and began to reflect on what went wrong. Never had I anticipated such a frigid beginning. It didn’t take me long to figure out where the problem lay. I had stocked my shelves with classic novels and poetry I cherished, yet they failed to meet the needs of local residents. I therefore resolved to make a thorough change. In place of those books, I displayed home-style cookbooks, stories about street food, and food-related picture books for children. I sincerely hoped these new books would win over the locals. I also launched a “Book-for-Veggie Exchange” activity in the store. The new adjustment turned out to be highly successful. Local people soon took to this creative idea. A young mother came first with a carrot to exchange for a picture book, and before long, my counter was overflowing with fresh vegetables. The tofu vendor’s daughter, who had watched silently for weeks on end, finally stepped forward to borrow a comic. Months later, the bookstore became a warm part of market life, with the scent of books blending gently with the fresh aroma of farm produce. This experience reshaped my understanding of books. I once believed books could only shine in quiet places, but now I have seen their real value. It lies in connecting with people’s everyday life: books can blend perfectly into daily routines and warm our hearts. They become meaningful and touching when combined with the hustle and bustle, food and laughter of everyday life. 4. What problem did the author face last summer? A. Doubt among close friends. B. Strong food smells in the market. C. Low store traffic in the bookstore. D. Disturbance from nearby vendors. 5. How did the author attract customers to the bookstore? A. By selling local vegetables. B. By offering reader-specific books. C. By stocking favorite classics. D. By organizing book-swap activities. 6. What can we learn about the bookstore in paragraph 3? A. It aimed at a profitable trade in farm produce. B. It funded the young children in the community. C. It reflected a harmonious integration into market life. D. It served as a popular gathering spot in the neighborhood. 7. What has the author learned from opening the bookstore? A. Better late than never. B. Books are for life, not for shelves. C. Think outside the box. D. Reading connects soul to daily life. C The grammar school boy from Stratford-Upon-Avon has made headlines again after a groundbreaking study showed that Shakespeare does benefit children’s literacy and emotional development, but only if they can act him out. The study found that a drama-based approach to teaching Shakespeare broadened children’s vocabulary, improved the quality of their writing, and enhanced their emotional understanding. “The way actors work makes a big difference to how children use language and how they think about themselves,” said Jacqui O’Hanlon, lead researcher of the study. The random trial involved hundreds of Year 5 pupils (aged nine and ten) at 45 state primary schools. The children were divided into a target group and a control group. Both groups read a passage from Romeo and Juliet and were asked to write a letter as Romeo after being separated from Juliet. Before writing, the target group took part in a 30-minute drama-based activity, while the control group did not. It was shown that pupils in the target group drew on a wider vocabulary, used more complicated or rarer words, and wrote at greater length. They also appeared more comfortable writing in role. While pupils in the control group imagined how they themselves would react to being separated from a loved one, children in the target group put themselves in Romeo’s shoes and expressed that character’s emotion. O’Hanlon said she had been most surprised by the emotional understanding evident in the children’s writing, and that they showed deeper empathy and expressed emotions more vividly. “It is probably related to the drama-based process, where you are used to trying to think and feel as the character,” she added. But could the results be reproduced with any old dramatists? O’Hanlon said more research would be needed but suggested that Shakespeare’s use of 20,000 words, compared with the everyday 2,000 words, gave a massive expansion of language into children’s lives, which was combined with children using their whole bodies to bring words to life. 8. What does the study encourage children to do? A. Perform Shakespeare’s works. B. Write their own original plays. C. Learn Shakespeare’s lines by heart. D. Watch professional acting on stage. 9. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its procedure. B. Its background. C. Its purpose. D. Its significance. 10. What impressed O’Hanlon most about the target group’s writing? A. Passage fluency. B. Emotional depth. C. Word complexity. D. Plot imagination. 11. What can be learned from the text? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Learning by doing works best. C. Reading makes a full man. D. Words are the voice of the mind. D The ocean may appear boundless. It’s easy to imagine that fish and other ocean creatures swim freely without restriction. That assumption, however, is mistaken. According to ecologist Karissa Lear, many ocean species stick to specific habitats and seldom go beyond them. This habit can cause unexpectedly big problems, especially when human-built structures get in the way. Take, for example, the green sawfish living near the mouth of the Ashburton River in Western Australia. In 2017, a large structure was built by the shore, stretching about 550 yards into the sea. As Lear had feared, the construction did harm the critically endangered green sawfish — they were unable to pass around the barrier. To Lear, this discovery supported a surprising new idea that ocean animals, much like land species, need a helping hand getting around human-built structures. On land, wildlife crossings are becoming more common. Green bridges, for instance, help bears and elk avoid a road in Canada’s Banff National Park. In 2022, a wildlife crossing in Washington State was used more than 5,000 times by animals such as deer and coyotes. Although the bridges are already popular on land, Lear says little attention has been paid to the idea of wildlife crossings designed to help ocean animals get around safely. For ocean animals, too many barriers can cut them off from important feeding sites. Overly limited movement can lead to the development of isolated groups that are more likely to go extinct. With more large structures planned for the Ashburton River area, Lear says the cumulative (累积的) effect of multiple barriers is a real concern for the green sawfish’s future. As the climate continues to change, paying attention to the needs of ocean animals is important. Many are moving farther north, and they need suitable habitats to move through. To address this, we can create crossings through human-built structures or protect habitats along their migration routes. As we continue to engineer the ocean, such efforts could go a long way toward protecting ocean life. 12. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By detailing research findings. B. By describing a natural scene. C. By addressing public concerns. D. By challenging a common belief. 13. What effect did the structure near the Ashburton River have? A. It provided a new habitat for ocean life. B. It blocked the path of the green sawfish. C. It attracted more new species to the area. D. It drove the green sawfish into deep waters. 14. What does Lear imply about wildlife crossings? A. They have reduced road accidents on land. B. They will replace ocean barriers eventually. C. They have destroyed land animals’ habitats. D. They are urgently needed for ocean animals. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Wildlife Crossings: From Land to Sea B. When Ocean Life Is in Danger C. The Sawfish That Lost Their Way Home D. Ocean Structures: No Harm Done 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。 In everyday communication, we exchange not only logical information but also emotions, attitudes and inner states. Since human beings are emotional creatures, our decisions, whether significant or trivial, are often driven more by emotions than by pure reason. Therefore, to express strong emotions clearly, we tend to use words like very, so and truly in daily language. ____16____ Verbal intensifiers (强化词) are special function words that enhance the meaning, especially the emotional meaning of the words they are attached to. ____17____ According to Buzarov (1998), intensification is a stable and vital feature of informal language. Words such as awfully, deeply, tremendously, and truly help speakers strengthen emotional impact and influence listeners’ psychological perception. ____18____ In English, we often say “I am deeply grateful” or “He is dead tired.” Other languages also have similar words: очень in Russian, sehr in German, très in French. Some new intensifiers are even created by combining words, like fantabulous from fantastic and fabulous. To make the most of intensifiers, we should use them with a clear purpose. Do not use them mindlessly. ____19____ Connect them with your genuine attitude and focus on conveying precise emotions. This way, appropriate use of intensifiers will make our words more powerful and sincere. Intensifiers, like any other linguistic tool, work best in the right context. ____20____ However, overusing them without necessity will only weaken their expressive effect and make our words sound empty. Mastering them wisely helps us become more proficient and persuasive communicators. A. Proper use is a smart linguistic choice. B. These function words have great expressive value. C. You’d better use them to express real ideas and emotions. D. Using intensifiers at will influences emotional expression. E. Intensifiers are used to simplify the meaning of other words. F. This is why verbal intensifiers have emerged in languages worldwide. G. They are commonly employed across languages and take on diverse forms. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I usually eat an apple on the drive home from work.

To my disappointment, I found an empty lot overgrown with weeds, where old furniture had been left and rainwater had gathered in muddy puddles (小水坑) on the ground. I stood there for a while, feeling sad about this wasted space. Then an idea came to me — what if we could turn this messy place into a small garden for everyone? That evening, I sent a message in our neighborhood chat group. I explained my plan and invited people to join me. Hours passed, but only two neighbors sent short replies saying “A good idea.” I felt a little discouraged. Just when I was about to give up, my phone lit up with a private message. It was from Mr. Wilson, an elderly man who lived alone in Building 3. I knew him by sight but had never spoken to him before. His message read: “I have some gardening tools and a few flower seeds. Can I help you?” I sent him a message, saying, “Yes. That's absolutely great.” We met at the empty lot the next Saturday morning. Mr. Wilson brought not only tools but also a small hand- drawn map. He pointed and said, “We can plant sunflowers here because they love sunlight, and we can put some easy- to- grow flowers near the path.” I was surprised by his knowledge. As we started cleaning together, he shared stories about the small garden he used to keep in his hometown. I realized he missed those days deeply. During the following weeks, we worked every weekend. The work was not easy. We had to remove the rubbish, clear the deep weeds and fill the muddy puddles with soil. Mr. Wilson showed me how to properly plant the seeds and water them. As we worked, more neighbors became interested. A young girl offered to paint signs for the garden; an old lady shared her gardening tips; and a couple helped build a simple fence. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Slowly, the garden started to take shape. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The garden quickly became a favorite spot for our community. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
