B When I was younger, I couldn’t wait to escape from Ramsgate, the harbor town where I grew up on the Isle of Thanet. It could feel small: the same faces in the same places, and where a new café or gallery was often met with doubt. There was this apparent insistence that life was fine as it was. But for a teenager eager to see more, that lack of curiosity was disheartening. So I left. I headed north for a four-year academic journey from York to Durham. After university, having played at newspapers, I made the move to London to do it for real. But the reality was tough, I struggled to get my daily articles done right before my period started. In my twenties, I threw myself into city life: trying out Mediterranean restaurants, taking the Tube everywhere, and staying out late with friends. For a while, it was enough. Then it became too much. In and among the sharing plates, I found myself on an unending rat race of moving faster and needing to earn more-just to keep up. Rents in London were pressing, apartments were tiny, yet the dream of owning one felt like a cruel joke. As I got older, trips back to Thanet opened my eyes to what I had left behind. Mainly, it was the sea. Wide yellow sands and even the touch of salt in the air, ordinary in childhood, suddenly felt appealing. But I also started to miss the beat of small-town life: waving to people on the street, noticing whose garden was overgrown, finding charm even in the pubs I had once ignored. What’s more, where I’d once hurried to leave, others are now rushing to arrive. Artists, creatives, and technologists have been priced out of London and are pouring to Thanet, bringing new ideas and drive. Now, when I head back home, I feel a mixture of pride and mild wonder: the place I once thought I’d outgrown has had a facelift I wasn’t expecting. I’ll keep returning to Thanet, with eager willingness. Each visit reminds me that places, like people, can grow without losing their essence. I’ve come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left; it is now the place it continues to become. 24. Why did the author want to leave Ramsgate? A. It offered few job opportunities. B. It lacked modern entertainment. C. It stuck to values he disagreed with. D. It failed to satisfy his desire to explore. 25. What does the author say about her life in London? A. She enjoyed a relaxed and balanced lifestyle. B. She struggled with high living expenses and intense competition. C. She quickly achieved her dream of owning an apartment. D. She rarely went out with her friends due to work pressure. 26. What can we learn about the author’s bond with Thanet over time? A. It remains stable and strong. B. It is influenced by public opinions. C. It shifts from rejection to reconnection. D. It is shaped by his childhood experience. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Sea in Memory B. Four Years Up North C. The Hometown Out of Reach D. A Growing Place, a Growing Me C In French culture, seven is known as l’âge de raison — the age at which children can tell right from wrong and assume some moral responsibility. Yet France’s national rail operator appears to disagree. They believe that children must be at least 12 to behave appropriately on a train. Earlier this month, SNCF, the state-owned railway company, launched its new Optimum Plus tariff (费用) on weekday rail services between Paris and Lyon, offering larger seats, better food and no under-12s. Designed to attract business travellers, the move aroused criticism and a wider debate about the place of children in society, particularly at a time of declining birthrates. “We can’t say we’re not having enough children and at the same time try to exclude them from everywhere,” argued Sarah El Hairy, a French official. Those who have endured long journeys with noisy children may understand the appeal of child-free spaces. But the reaction reflects a strong cultural objection. France traditionally grants children autonomy and responsibility, prioritising their integration into wider society. Children are expected to take part in everyday rituals, from elaborate school lunches to polite greetings. The underlying logic is simple: treating children as valued, responsible members of society helps them become respectful adults. Excluding them from public spaces weakens that lesson. The “no kids” rule therefore struck a nerve. SNCF, closely tied to French identity and summer holidays, is generally family-friendly. For example, activity packs are distributed to young travellers, and summer trains often carry groups of children heading to camps. After the social media storm, SNCF stressed that the new tariff applies to only 8% of weekday seats on one route and later removed references to a minimum age. Yet debate continues. Critics argue that a society unwilling to tolerate children is troubling. The controversy also connects with demographic (人口的) anxiety. Although France still has one of the highest birth rates in the EU, births have fallen sharply, with 24% fewer babies born last year than in 2010. The French government has called for expanding paid parental leave and maintaining extensive family support. Still, concerns about living costs and the climate crisis weigh heavily on decisions about parenthood. SNCF’s policy may affect only a small number of seats, but the reaction matters. Keeping children welcome in public spaces will not reverse falling birth rates. Treating them as troubles, however, is unlikely to help. 28. Why did SNCF launch the Optimum Plus tariff? A. To offer larger seats to children under 12. B. To appeal to frequent business travellers. C. To encourage public discussion about children. D. To promote the sale of rail tickets on weekends. 29. What can be inferred about SNCF according to the passage? A. It insists on the “no kids” rule despite strong opposition. B. It has long been criticized for not being family-friendly. C. It has attempted to soften the impact of the new policy. D. It promises to grant young passengers more autonomy. 30. The “no kids” policy arouses public concern in France because _______. A. it conflicts with France’s traditional attitude to children B. it has further decreased the birth rate among French C. it limits children’s access to all public transportation D. it may cause stress-related nerve problems in children 31. What is the author’s overall attitude in the passage? A. Neutral and mixed about the policy’s social impact. B. Concerned and critical of “no-kids” rule on board. C. Worried but supportive of policies favouring parents. D. Suspicious yet respectful of the rail operator’s policy. D Oceanic manta rays (蝠鲼) — the largest species of ray — may dive more than 1,200 metres deep to navigate the ocean, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science. Scientists tagged (给……加标签) 24 mantas in Raja Ampat, Indonesia; the Tumbes, Peru; and near Whangaroa, New Zealand, and then reviewed the data. They noticed that the rays were more likely to dive extremely deep off the coast of New Zealand: of the 2,705 tag-days of data collected, mantas dived to more than 500 metres on 79 days — 71 of these dives were around New Zealand. “Far offshore, oceanic manta rays are capable of diving to depths greater than 1,200 metres, far deeper than previously thought,” says Calvin Beale from Murdoch University in Perth, Australia, one of the study authors. The rays’ diving patterns offered a clue to the behaviour. The rays in New Zealand typically did a huge dive the day after entering deeper waters off the continental shelf. They swam sharply down but didn’t spend time at these depths, suggesting they weren’t feeding or avoiding predators. After returning to the surface, some swam more than 190km in the following days. One reason to dip so far below the surface could be that the mantas are picking up signals about where they are, such as changes in the Earth’s magnetic field, or in oxygen, temperature and light levels. “These dives, which are linked with increased horizontal travel, may play an important role in helping mantas gather information about their environment,” says Beale. “By diving and ‘sampling’ these signals, they could build a mental map that helps them navigate across vast, featureless stretches of open ocean.” In deeper waters, these clues can be more stable and predictable than at the surface, the scientists say. More research is needed, but the study “reminds us that the deep ocean — which regulates Earth’s climate — remains poorly understood but vitally important,” says Beale. 32. How did the scientists conduct the research? A. They did field research. B. They did experimental research. C. They analysed data obtained first-hand. D. They re-examined findings in previous researches. 33. What can be inferred from the rays’ dives? A. They dive into the deep sea to avoid predators. B. It’s easier for them to hunt for food in the deep sea. C. Diving in the deep sea helps them signal to peers better. D. The environment-related information collected helps them navigate. 34. Which of the following can describe the study according to Beale? A. Fully explored but rarely valued. B. Carefully studied but barely functional. C. Under-researched but critically essential. D. Well-understood and extremely significant. 35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage? A. To present a new study’s findings on manta rays’ deep dives. B. To highlight the importance of further research on manta rays. C. To explain how manta rays build mental maps for long-distance travel. D. To compare the diving patterns of manta rays in different marine regions. 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。 How to Handle Difficult People Without Losing Your Cool You have spent hours on a project, only to have a coworker or superior criticize it for countless, non-existent flaws (瑕疵). ____36____ Your friend is ignoring you, and when you ask what the matter is, she replies, “Nothing,” and continues doing it anyway.

But I’m embarrassed to admit I was also pretty envious! But when she and I tried out for Alice in Wonderland, though, things went the opposite way. “I really hope I get picked to be Alice,” said Avery. “You’d make a great Alice!” I said. “I don’t care what part I get as long as I’m in it.” “So you’d be happy to have a small part like the Dormouse?” she asked. “Exactly!” I said. A few days later, Avery and I raced over to the theater office, where the director had posted the cast list. “Wow!” said Avery. “You got the part of Alice and I got the part of the Dormouse.” “That can’t be right,” I said. “There must be some mistake!” But I really and truly was given the part of Alice. I’m pretty sure the reason I’d done well is that I hadn’t been nervous at all during the audition (试镜). And the reason I hadn’t been nervous is that it hadn’t even occurred to me that I could get the major role. “Do you want to come over after school and we can practice our lines?” I asked. “You mean practice your lines?” Avery said, not even looking at me. “No, thanks. I’m pretty busy this week.” “OK,” I said. “How about some day next week?” “Sorry,” she mumbled. “I’m pretty sure I’m busy forever.” That night at dinner, after my parents congratulated me for getting the lead role, they asked how I felt about it. “Well, I’m confused,” I said. “Avery was so upset that I was picked to be Alice, she pretty much threw away our friendship.” “Hmm,” said my mum. “Arizona, don’t you think this might be an opportunity for you to be an extra-good friend?” “Sometimes when our friends do well, we feel envious and don’t know how to act. Try giving her a little time and understanding. I bet she’ll come around before too long.” Over the following rehearsals (排练), Avery kept ignoring me on purpose. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She smiled. “I think I might be free on Thursday.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 江苏省南菁高级中学2025-2026学年度第二学期 高二年级期中考试英语试卷 本试卷满分150分 考试时间120分钟 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What is the woman doing?

M: When clothes are that affordable, it’s easy not to treat them carefully. W: True, we don’t value them as much because they’re cheap and easy to replace. M: But the worst part is most of these clothes nowadays end up in landfills within a year, wasting a lot of resources.

I loved riding horses and wandering through the fields. M: Sounds great. I spent every summer on my grandfather’s farm when I was a kid. I collected eggs, fed the chickens and brushed the horses. Most importantly, farm life taught me to appreciate every bite of food. W: I get that, but farm work never stops. It’s an endless cycle of planting, harvesting and maintaining the land almost without a break. I guess I’ve gotten used to city life and working on computers. Could you imagine moving back to a farm?

That is exactly what our program aims to do, to create more opportunities for overseas Chinese youth to explore and understand their cultural heritage. We designed this journey to turn the stories you share at home into real life experiences. From walking through the Forbidden City to standing on the Great Wall, we want your children to see Chinese culture with their own eyes. Not just hear about it in books or on maps, we also truly appreciate the efforts you make at home, whether it’s encouraging your children to learn the erhu or yang qin, traditional Chinese musical instruments which are supporting their interest in traditional Chinese painting. This program works alongside families to help bring that learning to life. By the end of the journey, we hope your children will not only see more, but also feel more connected to who they are and where they come from. Thank you again for letting us walk this journey with your families as we pass these traditions on to the next generation. 第二部分 阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Work From Home — Teaching English Online Job Description ·Teaching 1-on-3 ESL lessons online to Chinese kids 5-12 years old ·1-on-15 classes are available for teachers with an exceptional internet connection and computer hardware. ·40 minutes per lesson (10-minute break between classes) ·Teaching assistant provided ·Working from anywhere with a computer and stable internet connection ·Pre-job training and on-job training provided Requirements ·A Bachelor’s degree or above ·Must be a holder of state/provincial teaching license (still valid) ·Teaching experience in K-12 (from kindergarten to Grade 12) ·Wired, high-speed internet connection ·Good communication skills ·A well-balanced, flexible and adaptable nature ·A demonstrated respect of the values, cultural differences and expectations of the Chinese parents Position Type Functions Visa Required Online ESL Teacher Teach 1-on-3/1-on-15 classes to kids (5-12) via internet No (Remote Position) Benefits Skills/ Subjects Candidate Range ●Possible for special programs with an extra bonus of $12/hr; ●Stepped promotion path with salary raise; ●Maximum 4 sessions per day; ●Students no-show, or class cancellation within 48 hours of class, teacher will receive 100% of the pay.

It could feel small: the same faces in the same places, and where a new café or gallery was often met with doubt. There was this apparent insistence that life was fine as it was. But for a teenager eager to see more, that lack of curiosity was disheartening. So I left. I headed north for a four-year academic journey from York to Durham. After university, having played at newspapers, I made the move to London to do it for real. But the reality was tough, I struggled to get my daily articles done right before my period started. In my twenties, I threw myself into city life: trying out Mediterranean restaurants, taking the Tube everywhere, and staying out late with friends. For a while, it was enough. Then it became too much. In and among the sharing plates, I found myself on an unending rat race of moving faster and needing to earn more-just to keep up. Rents in London were pressing, apartments were tiny, yet the dream of owning one felt like a cruel joke. As I got older, trips back to Thanet opened my eyes to what I had left behind. Mainly, it was the sea. Wide yellow sands and even the touch of salt in the air, ordinary in childhood, suddenly felt appealing. But I also started to miss the beat of small-town life: waving to people on the street, noticing whose garden was overgrown, finding charm even in the pubs I had once ignored. What’s more, where I’d once hurried to leave, others are now rushing to arrive. Artists, creatives, and technologists have been priced out of London and are pouring to Thanet, bringing new ideas and drive. Now, when I head back home, I feel a mixture of pride and mild wonder: the place I once thought I’d outgrown has had a facelift I wasn’t expecting. I’ll keep returning to Thanet, with eager willingness. Each visit reminds me that places, like people, can grow without losing their essence. I’ve come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left; it is now the place it continues to become. 24. Why did the author want to leave Ramsgate? A. It offered few job opportunities. B. It lacked modern entertainment. C. It stuck to values he disagreed with. D. It failed to satisfy his desire to explore. 25. What does the author say about her life in London? A. She enjoyed a relaxed and balanced lifestyle. B. She struggled with high living expenses and intense competition. C. She quickly achieved her dream of owning an apartment. D. She rarely went out with her friends due to work pressure. 26. What can we learn about the author’s bond with Thanet over time? A. It remains stable and strong. B. It is influenced by public opinions. C. It shifts from rejection to reconnection. D. It is shaped by his childhood experience. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. The Sea in Memory B. Four Years Up North C. The Hometown Out of Reach D. A Growing Place, a Growing Me 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者年轻时渴望逃离家乡拉姆斯盖特，到伦敦追求梦想，在伦敦经历生活的艰辛后，随着年龄增长，回到家乡发现家乡的变化，重新认识并爱上家乡的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But for a teenager eager to see more, that lack of curiosity was disheartening. (但对于一个渴望看到更多世界的青少年来说，这种缺乏好奇心的情况令人沮丧。)”可知，作者想离开拉姆斯盖特是因为它无法满足作者探索的欲望。故选D项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In and among the sharing plates, I found myself on an unending rat race of moving faster and needing to earn more-just to keep up. Rents in London were pressing, apartments were tiny, yet the dream of owning one felt like a cruel joke. (在共享的餐盘之间，我发现自己陷入了一场永无止境的激烈竞争，要更快地行动，需要赚更多的钱——只是为了跟上节奏。伦敦的房租压力很大，公寓很小，但拥有一个公寓的梦想就像一个残酷的玩笑。)”可知，作者在伦敦的生活中，面临着高昂的生活费用和激烈的竞争。故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“When I was younger, I couldn’t wait to escape from Ramsgate, the harbor town where I grew up on the Isle of Thanet. (当我年轻的时候，我迫不及待地想逃离拉姆斯盖特，这个我在萨尼特岛长大的海港小镇。)”和第四段中的“As I got older, trips back to Thanet opened my eyes to what I had left behind. Mainly, it was the sea. (随着年龄的增长，回到萨尼特岛的旅行让我看到了我留下的东西。主要是大海。)”以及最后一段中的“I’ve come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left; it is now the place it continues to become. (我已经爱上萨尼特岛，它不仅仅是我离开的家；它现在是它继续成为的地方。)”可推知，作者对萨尼特岛的情感随着时间的推移，从最初的排斥转变为重新连接。故选C项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合最后一段中的“Each visit reminds me that places, like people, can grow without losing their essence. I’ve come to love Thanet as more than just the home I left; it is now the place it continues to become. (每次访问都提醒我，地方和人一样，可以在不失去本质的情况下成长。我已经爱上萨尼特岛，它不仅仅是我离开的家；它现在是它继续成为的地方。)”以及结合全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者对家乡萨尼特岛的情感变化，从逃离到重新认识并爱上，家乡和作者都在成长，所以“A Growing Place, a Growing Me (一个成长的地方，一个成长的我)”是合适的标题。故选D项。 C In French culture, seven is known as l’âge de raison — the age at which children can tell right from wrong and assume some moral responsibility. Yet France’s national rail operator appears to disagree. They believe that children must be at least 12 to behave appropriately on a train. Earlier this month, SNCF, the state-owned railway company, launched its new Optimum Plus tariff (费用) on weekday rail services between Paris and Lyon, offering larger seats, better food and no under-12s. Designed to attract business travellers, the move aroused criticism and a wider debate about the place of children in society, particularly at a time of declining birthrates. “We can’t say we’re not having enough children and at the same time try to exclude them from everywhere,” argued Sarah El Hairy, a French official. Those who have endured long journeys with noisy children may understand the appeal of child-free spaces. But the reaction reflects a strong cultural objection. France traditionally grants children autonomy and responsibility, prioritising their integration into wider society. Children are expected to take part in everyday rituals, from elaborate school lunches to polite greetings. The underlying logic is simple: treating children as valued, responsible members of society helps them become respectful adults. Excluding them from public spaces weakens that lesson. The “no kids” rule therefore struck a nerve. SNCF, closely tied to French identity and summer holidays, is generally family-friendly. For example, activity packs are distributed to young travellers, and summer trains often carry groups of children heading to camps. After the social media storm, SNCF stressed that the new tariff applies to only 8% of weekday seats on one route and later removed references to a minimum age. Yet debate continues. Critics argue that a society unwilling to tolerate children is troubling. The controversy also connects with demographic (人口的) anxiety. Although France still has one of the highest birth rates in the EU, births have fallen sharply, with 24% fewer babies born last year than in 2010. The French government has called for expanding paid parental leave and maintaining extensive family support. Still, concerns about living costs and the climate crisis weigh heavily on decisions about parenthood. SNCF’s policy may affect only a small number of seats, but the reaction matters. Keeping children welcome in public spaces will not reverse falling birth rates. Treating them as troubles, however, is unlikely to help. 28. Why did SNCF launch the Optimum Plus tariff? A. To offer larger seats to children under 12. B. To appeal to frequent business travellers. C. To encourage public discussion about children. D. To promote the sale of rail tickets on weekends. 29. What can be inferred about SNCF according to the passage? A. It insists on the “no kids” rule despite strong opposition. B. It has long been criticized for not being family-friendly. C. It has attempted to soften the impact of the new policy. D. It promises to grant young passengers more autonomy. 30. The “no kids” policy arouses public concern in France because _______. A. it conflicts with France’s traditional attitude to children B. it has further decreased the birth rate among French C. it limits children’s access to all public transportation D. it may cause stress-related nerve problems in children 31. What is the author’s overall attitude in the passage? A. Neutral and mixed about the policy’s social impact. B. Concerned and critical of “no-kids” rule on board. C. Worried but supportive of policies favouring parents. D. Suspicious yet respectful of the rail operator’s policy. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了法国国家铁路运营商推出“无儿童”票价政策引发的争议及其背后反映的社会文化问题。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Earlier this month, SNCF, the state-owned railway company, launched its new Optimum Plus tariff (费用) on weekday rail services between Paris and Lyon, offering larger seats, better food and no under-12s. Designed to attract business travellers, the move aroused criticism and a wider debate about the place of children in society, particularly at a time of declining birthrates.(本月早些时候，法国国有铁路公司SNCF，在巴黎至里昂的工作日列车线路上推出全新的“优享加强版”票价，该席位座椅更宽敞、餐食更优质，且禁止十二岁以下儿童乘坐。此举初衷是吸引商务旅客，却引发诸多非议，也掀起一场关于儿童社会地位的广泛讨论，尤其当下法国正面临出生率走低的现状。)”可知，SNCF推出“优享加强版”票价是为了吸引经常出差的商务旅客。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“After the social media storm, SNCF stressed that the new tariff applies to only 8% of weekday seats on one route and later removed references to a minimum age. Yet debate continues.(在社交媒体舆论发酵后，法国国家铁路公司出面表态，强调该新票价仅覆盖一条线路工作日8%的席位，后续还删除了相关最低年龄限制的条款，但相关争议仍未平息。)”可知，SNCF试图减轻新政策的影响。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“But the reaction reflects a strong cultural objection. France traditionally grants children autonomy and responsibility, prioritising their integration into wider society. Children are expected to take part in everyday rituals, from elaborate school lunches to polite greetings. The underlying logic is simple: treating children as valued, responsible members of society helps them become respectful adults. Excluding them from public spaces weakens that lesson.(但民众的反对呼声，实则源于根深蒂固的文化观念。法国向来赋予孩子自主权利与责任意识，重视让他们融入整个社会。孩子们需要参与日常各类生活礼仪，从精致丰盛的校园午餐，到礼貌得体的待人问候，皆是如此。背后的道理十分浅显：将孩子视作受重视、有担当的社会一员，才能助力他们成长为懂尊重、有教养的成年人。而将孩童隔绝在公共空间之外，只会背离这一教育初衷。)”可知，“无儿童”政策引起了法国公众的关注，因为它与法国对儿童的传统态度相冲突。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“SNCF’s policy may affect only a small number of seats, but the reaction matters. Keeping children welcome in public spaces will not reverse falling birth rates. Treating them as troubles, however, is unlikely to help.(SNCF的政策可能只影响少数座位，但反应很重要。让儿童在公共空间受到欢迎不会扭转出生率下降的趋势。然而，把他们当作麻烦事不太可能有所帮助。)”可知，作者对火车上的“无儿童”规则表示担忧和批评。故选B。 D Oceanic manta rays (蝠鲼) — the largest species of ray — may dive more than 1,200 metres deep to navigate the ocean, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science. Scientists tagged (给……加标签) 24 mantas in Raja Ampat, Indonesia; the Tumbes, Peru; and near Whangaroa, New Zealand, and then reviewed the data. They noticed that the rays were more likely to dive extremely deep off the coast of New Zealand: of the 2,705 tag-days of data collected, mantas dived to more than 500 metres on 79 days — 71 of these dives were around New Zealand. “Far offshore, oceanic manta rays are capable of diving to depths greater than 1,200 metres, far deeper than previously thought,” says Calvin Beale from Murdoch University in Perth, Australia, one of the study authors. The rays’ diving patterns offered a clue to the behaviour. The rays in New Zealand typically did a huge dive the day after entering deeper waters off the continental shelf. They swam sharply down but didn’t spend time at these depths, suggesting they weren’t feeding or avoiding predators. After returning to the surface, some swam more than 190km in the following days. One reason to dip so far below the surface could be that the mantas are picking up signals about where they are, such as changes in the Earth’s magnetic field, or in oxygen, temperature and light levels. “These dives, which are linked with increased horizontal travel, may play an important role in helping mantas gather information about their environment,” says Beale. “By diving and ‘sampling’ these signals, they could build a mental map that helps them navigate across vast, featureless stretches of open ocean.” In deeper waters, these clues can be more stable and predictable than at the surface, the scientists say. More research is needed, but the study “reminds us that the deep ocean — which regulates Earth’s climate — remains poorly understood but vitally important,” says Beale. 32. How did the scientists conduct the research? A. They did field research. B. They did experimental research. C. They analysed data obtained first-hand. D. They re-examined findings in previous researches. 33. What can be inferred from the rays’ dives? A. They dive into the deep sea to avoid predators. B. It’s easier for them to hunt for food in the deep sea. C. Diving in the deep sea helps them signal to peers better. D. The environment-related information collected helps them navigate. 34. Which of the following can describe the study according to Beale? A. Fully explored but rarely valued. B. Carefully studied but barely functional. C. Under-researched but critically essential. D. Well-understood and extremely significant. 35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the passage? A. To present a new study’s findings on manta rays’ deep dives. B. To highlight the importance of further research on manta rays. C. To explain how manta rays build mental maps for long-distance travel. D. To compare the diving patterns of manta rays in different marine regions. 【答案】32. C 33. D 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了《海洋科学前沿》杂志上的一项新研究，海洋蝠鲼可能会潜至超过1200米的深海来探索海洋，科学家们可以通过他们来更多地了解海洋和地球。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段首句“Scientists tagged (给……加标签) 24 mantas in Raja Ampat, Indonesia; the Tumbes, Peru; and near Whangaroa, New Zealand, and then reviewed the data. (科学家在印度尼西亚的拉贾安帕特、秘鲁的图姆贝斯以及新西兰的旺加罗亚附近对24只蝠鲼进行了标记，并对收集到的数据进行了分析)”可知，科学家们对直接获取的数据进行了分析。故选C项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“One reason to dip so far below the surface could be that the mantas are picking up signals about where they are, such as changes in the Earth’s magnetic field, or in oxygen, temperature and light levels.(潜水如此之深的原因之一可能是，蝠鲼能够接收有关自身所在位置的信号，比如地球磁场的变化、氧气、温度和光照水平的变化)”及第六段“These dives, which are linked with increased horizontal travel, may play an important role in helping mantas gather information about their environment(这些与水平移动增加相关的潜水行为，可能在帮助蝠鲼获取有关其环境的信息方面发挥着重要作用)”可知，所收集的与环境相关的信息有助于他们确定自己的位置。故选D项。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“More research is needed, but the study “reminds us that the deep ocean — which regulates Earth’s climate — remains poorly understood but vitally important,”says Beale. (还需要进行更多的研究，但这项研究“提醒我们，深海——它调节着地球的气候——仍然知之甚少，但却至关重要”贝勒说道)”可知，科学家认为这项研究还不够，有待深入研究，却是至关重要的。故选C项。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Oceanic manta rays (蝠鲼) — the largest species of ray — may dive more than 1,200 metres deep to navigate the ocean, according to a new study published in the journal Frontiers in Marine Science.(根据发表在《海洋科学前沿》杂志上的一项新研究，海洋蝠鲼可能会潜至超过1200米的深海来探索海洋)”可知，本文的写作目的是公布一项科学研究成果。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。 How to Handle Difficult People Without Losing Your Cool You have spent hours on a project, only to have a coworker or superior criticize it for countless, non-existent flaws (瑕疵). ____36____ Your friend is ignoring you, and when you ask what the matter is, she replies, “Nothing,” and continues doing it anyway. People who are unreasonable or demanding — in work, family, or friendship — get on our nerves daily. Dealing with difficult people requires thoughtful and consistent approaches. ____37____ Hypercritical colleagues may find fault with your report. It’s natural to get cross when they do so, but try to keep your eye on the ball. Your brother comments repeatedly that you organize family events poorly.

(你花了好几个小时做一个项目，结果却被同事或上级批评了无数个根本不存在的缺陷。)”说明母亲会因为你的日程安排而唠叨你。空处和前文为并列关系，并列同类生活烦恼。所以G项“你妈妈一直在唠叨你的日程安排。”符合语境。故选G。 【37题详解】 上文“Dealing with difficult people requires thoughtful and consistent approaches. (和难相处的人打交道需要深思熟虑和始终如一的方法。)”说明和难相处的人打交道需要深思熟虑和始终如一的方法。下文“Hypercritical colleagues may find fault with your report. It’s natural to get cross when they do so, but try to keep your eye on the ball. (吹毛求疵的同事可能会对你的报告挑刺。当他们这样做的时候，你生气是很自然的，但要把注意力集中在重要的事情上。)”说明面对吹毛求疵的同事，要把注意力集中在重要的事情上。空处承上启下，说明面对难相处的人如何做。所以A项“第一条规则是忽略它。”符合语境，it指代前文中提到的“和难相处的人打交道”这件事。故选A。 【38题详解】 上文“A friend complains all the time about your being late. Try not to conflict with him head on. (一个朋友总是抱怨你迟到。尽量不要和他正面冲突。)”说明尽量不要和朋友正面冲突。空处承接前文建议，给出具体应对方式。所以D项“相反，随它去吧，以免影响出行。”符合语境。故选D。 【39题详解】 上文“Humour, when gentle and respectful, can lighten the mood and remove tension. However, don’t let the joke go too far. (幽默，如果温和而尊重，可以缓解情绪，消除紧张。然而，不要让玩笑开得太过分。)”说明幽默要适度。下文“Avoid sarcasm (讥讽) which may make things worse. (避免使用讥讽，这可能会让事情变得更糟。)”告诫别用讽刺激化矛盾。空处承上启下，解释幽默需把握分寸的原因。所以E项“幽默和冒犯之间只有一线之隔。”符合语境。故选E。 【40题详解】 下文“Be clear about what you will and will not tolerate. If someone crosses the line, it’s okay to step back. You don’t have to engage in arguments or explain yourself endlessly. Instead, you can end the conversation on a friendly but firm note. (要清楚你能容忍什么，不能容忍什么。如果有人越界了，你可以退后一步。你不必无休止地争吵或解释自己。相反，你可以友好而坚定地结束谈话。)”说明本段主要介绍设定界限也很重要。空处为本段的主旨句，统领全段，所以B项“设定界限也很重要。”符合语境，适合作段首句。故选B。 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。 Dr. James Leong is an eye doctor in Wellington.

But I’m embarrassed to admit I was also pretty envious! But when she and I tried out for Alice in Wonderland, though, things went the opposite way. “I really hope I get picked to be Alice,” said Avery. “You’d make a great Alice!” I said. “I don’t care what part I get as long as I’m in it.” “So you’d be happy to have a small part like the Dormouse?” she asked. “Exactly!” I said. A few days later, Avery and I raced over to the theater office, where the director had posted the cast list. “Wow!” said Avery. “You got the part of Alice and I got the part of the Dormouse.” “That can’t be right,” I said. “There must be some mistake!” But I really and truly was given the part of Alice. I’m pretty sure the reason I’d done well is that I hadn’t been nervous at all during the audition (试镜). And the reason I hadn’t been nervous is that it hadn’t even occurred to me that I could get the major role. “Do you want to come over after school and we can practice our lines?” I asked. “You mean practice your lines?” Avery said, not even looking at me. “No, thanks. I’m pretty busy this week.” “OK,” I said. “How about some day next week?” “Sorry,” she mumbled. “I’m pretty sure I’m busy forever.” That night at dinner, after my parents congratulated me for getting the lead role, they asked how I felt about it. “Well, I’m confused,” I said. “Avery was so upset that I was picked to be Alice, she pretty much threw away our friendship.” “Hmm,” said my mum. “Arizona, don’t you think this might be an opportunity for you to be an extra-good friend?” “Sometimes when our friends do well, we feel envious and don’t know how to act. Try giving her a little time and understanding. I bet she’ll come around before too long.” Over the following rehearsals (排练), Avery kept ignoring me on purpose. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ She smiled. “I think I might be free on Thursday.” ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Over the following rehearsals(排练), Avery kept ignoring me on purpose. Mum’s words echoing in my mind, I supposed maybe we both needed some space. Then at rehearsal one day, I approached her and smiled, “You’re such a talented actor, and the way you say your lines is awesome.” “Thanks,” said Avery, “I figured out all the ways to perform it well.” A wave of pride flashed across her face. “Well,” I said, “I’m still struggling with a few things about my character. I’d love your help if you have any free time this week.” She smiled. “I think I might be free on Thursday.” On hearing her words, I felt more than happy and smiled back. Avery came to practise with me as she promised. As expected, our play turned out marvellous, and the audience burst into cheers, pride filling in all of us. Although the friendship path between Avery and me was once a little rough, we eventually enjoyed the sweetness from each other. Mum was right, “Give your teammate a little time and understanding, and he or she just might come around before too long.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者和自己的好朋友之间的友谊曾经出现的一点波澜，但是作者听从了妈妈的建议，最终两个人和好如初。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在接下来的排练中，Avery一直故意无视我。”以及第二段首句内容“她笑了，“我想我星期四可能有空。””可知，第一段可描写作者如何打破两个人之间关系的僵局。 ②由第二段首句内容“她笑了，“我想我星期四可能有空。””可知，第二段可描写两个人和好如初以及演出的成功，当然还有作者的感触。 2.续写线索：作者想到妈妈的话——作者努力打破两人之间关系的僵局——作者和Avery和好如初 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①认为：suppose/think/believe ②需要：need/require ③结果是：turn out /prove 情绪类 ①绝妙的：awesome/wonderful/remarkable ② 开心：happy/delighted/joyful 【点睛】【高分句型1】Mum’s words echoing in my mind, I supposed maybe we both needed some space.（运用了独立主格以及省略that的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】Although the friendship path between Avery and me was once a little rough, we eventually enjoyed the sweetness from each other.（运用了although引导的让步状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $本听力试题分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上请看听力部分第一节，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ABC3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，现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Hi, i'm trying to sign up for a psychology class.
