With the right planning and maximization of available resources, traveling as a college student may be easier than you think. Chengdu, China If visiting a place with happy locals is a priority for you, there’s no better city to hit than Chengdu. It is home to pandas and spicy things. Moreover, the city’s abundance of cultural and historical sights, together with its laid-back (松弛的) lifestyle, make itself one of the most attractive and livable large cities too. Past travelers have spent, on average, ¥158 on meals and about a quarter of that on local transportation for one day. Con Dao, Vietnam Tourism is picking up in Vietnam lately, where you can travel for about ¥ 100 per day if you play your cards right. Con Dao Island Nation Park, a group of dramatic tiny islands off the southern coast, is a great destination to see sea turtles and other wildlife while exploring the area on foot. Its thick jungle will give you a good chance to uncover a paradise of your own. Zakynthos, Greece If you’re looking for an affordable European summer beach vacation, consider Zakynthos. Food is cheap and mouthwatering. There are plenty of free things to do, although the favorite is spending time on the beautiful beaches edged by bright blue water. There are countless options for swimming in the clear sea, along with charming villages and museums to explore. New Orleans, U. S. New Orleans is an incredibly unique place in the US, full of fascinating history, absorbing culture, delicious food, and a constantly buzzing nightlife scene. There are actually a couple of hostels in and near the French Quarter that offer reasonable accommodation rates for students. 21. Which city best suits people who like to meet cheerful locals? A.

For most of her life, Joy Ryan never saw the scenery beyond her home state of Ohio. Then, when she was in her mid-eighties, her grandson Brad Ryan decided to take her on a journey to all of the US National Parks, which took eight years to complete. At the age of 93, Grandma Joy has finally seen all 63 parks, ending her journey in the National Park of American Samoa. “When I learned she had never seen the great wildernesses of America—deserts, mountains, oceans, I decided to intervene (干预) in some way,” Brad says. This idea inspired their first trip to the Great Smoky Mountains. However, once they were on the road, Brad realized that they could visit more parks that were nearby. Over the years, they managed to see all of the famous sights at Yosemite, the Grand Canyon, the Redwoods, and so on. But Brad values the time spent with his grandmother just as much as the amazing places they were able to visit. Despite Grandma Joy’s older age, she was able to hike mountains. Brad regards her love for life as the key to her good health. She is grateful for each new day and is always excited for the next journey. Finally, their long journey across the US came to an end with American Samoa. “I am thankful every morning for giving me another day,” Grandma Joy shares. “And it’s not your choice whether you’re going to have a rainy day or a sunny day. So, smile at everybody, and let everybody know you’re having a whale of a time.” While her tour of the US has come to an end, she and her grandson are not done traveling. Next up, they have their sights set on Kenya. 24. Why did Brad decide to intervene in some way? A. To celebrate Grandma Joy’s 93rd birthday. B. To complete a task he promised Grandma Joy. C. To enrich Grandma Joy’s travelling experiences. D. To realize Grandma Joy’s dream of visiting parks. 25. Which of the following best describes their tour in Brad’s eyes? A. Tough and challenging. B. Tiring but educational. C. Stressful but eye-opening. D. Amazing and worthwhile. 26. Which factor mainly contributes to Grandma Joy’s good health? A. Her grandson’s inspiration. B. Her adventurous spirit. C. Her regular exercise. D. Her positive attitude. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Stay Curious, Stay Young B. Never too Old to Hit the Road C. Laughter, the Best Medicine D. Travelling Contributes to Long Life C A Chinese motorcycle brand has made history. Last weekend, ZXMOTO secured two straight victories at the Superbike World Championship in Portugal. It was a significant achievement for the brand in a sport long dominated (称霸) by European and Japanese giants. The story behind ZXMOTO is as inspiring as its victory. The brand was founded by Zhang Xue, a self-taught motorcycle enthusiast from a small village in Hunan Province. At 16, he started working in a repair shop. By 17, he had opened his own. At 19, he pursued a television crew for over 100 kilometers in the rain just to appear on screen — a brave move that helped him win a place on a racing team. After co-founding another motorcycle company in 2017, Zhang decided to venture out on his own in 2024. Less than two years later, his motorcycles stood on the world podium (领奖台). When the victory came, Zhang burst into tears thousands of miles away in Chongqing. “It is not about chasing a trophy (奖杯),” he later posted online. “It is about loving the ride. And that, perhaps, changes everything.” Industry experts said the victory proves how far Chinese manufacturing (制造业) has advanced. “For China to win both rounds in a world championship on a domestically developed production bike — that’s a first,” said Zhang Duo, senior editor at Motorcycle magazine. The company invested nearly 70 million yuan in research and development in 2025, even though it reported a loss. But the risk is starting to pay off. After the championship win, orders for ZXMOTO motorcycles surged to over 5,500 units within days. The company is now valued at about 1.09 billion yuan. For Zhang Xue, the victory is only the starting point. His ambition for the next five years is to capture more than half of the large-displacement motorcycle market currently held by international brands. “Instead of competing on price, we are moving into the high-end market with superior performance and cutting-edge technology,” he said. 28. What first helped Zhang Xue enter the world of racing? A. Opening his own repair shop at 17. B. Winning a championship in Portugal last weekend. C. Co-founding a motorcycle company in 2017. D. Pursuing a TV crew in the rain as a teenager. 29. What does Zhang Duo mean in Paragraph 4? A. Chinese motorcycles are still behind global brands. B. Winning with a Chinese-made bike is a historic moment. C. Foreign brands no longer dominate the motorcycle market. D. The victory was mainly due to the rider’s excellent skills. 30. What does the underlined word “surged” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Increased rapidly. B. Rose slowly. C. Dropped sharply. D. Remained unchanged. 31. Which of the following best reflects the message of the story? A. Victory belongs to those who compete on price. B. Passion alone can guarantee success in business. C. A clear goal and strong will are key to achievement. D. Success requires both love for what you do and wise investment. D Music can have a great impact on emotion, energy, and even concentration. Many students turn to music as a way to enhance their focus during study, but not all types of music are equally effective. According to research on the relationship between music and concentration, music activates (激活) multiple areas of the brain, including the auditory cortex, which processes sound, and the limbic system (边缘系统), which manages emotions. By engaging these regions, music can help deal with emotions, keep you calm, and maintain your attention. However, music that is too loud, fast, or complex can overload (使过载) these systems, making it harder to focus on cognitive (认知的) tasks. One of the most well-known studies on music and cognitive performance is the “Mozart Effect”, which suggests that listening to classical music, particularly Mozart, can improve visual reasoning and cognitive abilities. While later research has shown that the effect may not be as strong as initially believed, classical music is still widely regarded as a good option for studying due to its structured, calming nature. Given that not all music is equally beneficial, it’s important for students to match the music to the task at hand. For tasks that require deep concentration, such as problem-solving or reading, instrumental music with a slow tempo (节奏) is ideal, especially in noisy environments. For tasks that require less cognitive effort, such as organizing notes or working on creative projects, you may be able to handle more lively music or music with lyrics (歌词). Lyrics can be highly distracting during study, as they compete for your brain’s language-processing resources. This is especially true for tasks that involve reading, writing, or any activity that requires verbal processing. Creating your own study playlist allows you to match the music to your needs. Listening to songs that you’re already familiar with helps keep your brain focused on the task rather than getting caught up in new sounds. Moreover, if you’ve found particular music that works well for studying, add more of it to your playlist. Last, make your playlist long enough to last through your study. Constantly switching songs or playlists can break your concentration. 32. What does the research on music and concentration reveal? A. People’s preference for music varies. B. Music lovers tend to find joy in study. C. Music has a double-edged effect on study. D. Music improves people’s memory effectively. 33. What can be drawn from the “Mozart Effect”? A. Classical music motivates artistic talent. B. Classical music can help with thinking. C. Musical training makes studying easier. D. Good students find inspiration from musicians. 34. Which kind of music may the author suggest for students reading in the library? A. Soft piano pieces. B. Live rock recordings. C. Energetic violin pieces. D. Songs with touching lyrics. 35. What is a suitable subtitle for the last paragraph? A. Why music benefits study? B. How to choose the proper music? C. How to create your study playlist? D. Why familiar music improves focus? 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。 Managing Conflict with Humour Humour is a powerful tool. It brings people closer, managing conflict, and reducing tension(紧张，焦虑). 36 Make sure you’re both in on the joke. Humour can help you overcome conflict only when both parties are in on the joke. So it’s important to be sensitive to the other person. 37 When the joking is one-sided rather than mutual (相互的), it can damage the relationship. Don’t use humour to cover up other emotions. Humour helps you face challenges in life. But there are times when humour is not healthy. For example, sometimes it is used as a cover for avoiding painful emotions. 38 When you do that, you create confusion and mistrust in your relationships. 39 Some find it easier than others to use humour, especially in tense situations. If your efforts aren’t going over well, start by using self-deprecating (自嘲的) humour. We all love people who don’t take themselves too seriously. After all, nobody is perfect and we all make mistakes. So, if you’re having a bad hair day, make a joke about it. Even if the joke falls flat, the only person you risk offending is yourself. Tap into (发掘) your playful side. 40 However, it’s important to point out that you don’t need to be a comedian（喜剧演员） to use humour to manage conflict. The point isn’t to impress the other person, but simply to lighten the mood. Therefore, don’t be afraid to simply act silly like a kid. It can lower the other person’s defenses and put you both in a more positive state of mind. A．Stop humour if faced with trouble. B．Develop a smart sense of humour. C．It is easy to understand some jokes. D．It’s understandable to fear rejection when attempting humour. E．You can be funny about the truth, but hiding the truth isn’t funny. F．Here’s how to use humour to resolve disagreements and strengthen your relationships. G．If he or she isn’t likely to appreciate the joke, don’t say or do it, even if it’s “all in good fun”. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Holly Cooke wasn’t a fan of weekends for a long time.

Developing healthy digital habits is essential for maintaining balance in life. The first step is to set clear boundaries(界限) for screen time. Experts recommend taking regular breaks using the 20-20-20 rule: every 20 minutes, look at something 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Turning off notifications during study time helps maintain concentration. Establishing “screen-free” zones, especially in bedrooms, can significantly improve sleep quality. Another important aspect is being mindful of online content. Following educational or inspirational accounts rather than those promoting unrealistic standards can boost mental well-being. Students should also schedule offline activities like sports, reading, or face-to-face socializing to maintain a healthy balance between virtual and real-world interactions. Parents and schools play a crucial role in modeling and teaching digital wellness. Open discussions about responsible technology use, cyberbullying prevention, and critical thinking about online information should be encouraged. Teachers can incorporate(包含,融入) digital literacy into their curriculum to help students navigate(浏览,操纵) the online world safely. By carrying out these strategies, teenagers can enjoy technology’s benefits while avoiding its risks. Healthy digital habits formed during school years will serve students well throughout their lives in our increasingly connected world. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高一英语试卷 第 3 页（共10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
