B 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍由城市青年国际协会主办的“连接世界”国际学生文化交流项目，该项目为期两周，旨在为国际学生提供一个相互文化沉浸与分享的平台。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This two-week program offers a unique immersive experience, which is a platform for mutual cultural immersion and sharing.(这个为期两周的项目提供独特的沉浸式体验，是一个相互文化沉浸与分享的平台)”可知，“连接世界”项目的主要目的是提供一个相互文化沉浸与分享的平台。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“You will be paired with a local host family, and participate in traditional craft workshops (like pottery and calligraphy). More than just sightseeing, you will collaborate with local students on a community project(你将与当地寄宿家庭结对，并参加传统工艺工作坊（如陶艺和书法）。不只是观光，你将与当地学生合作开展一个社区项目)”可知，提到了与当地寄宿家庭同住、参加传统工艺工作坊以及与当地学生合作项目，未提及参加历史学术讲座。 【3题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第二段“You will be paired with a local host family, and participate in traditional craft workshops (like pottery and calligraphy) . More than just sightseeing, you will collaborate with local students on a community project, fostering mutual understanding and lasting friendships. We also organize weekly cultural showcase nights where you can present your home country’s customs, food, or art.(你将被安排入住当地寄宿家庭，并参与陶艺、书法等传统手工艺研习活动。 这趟行程不只是简单的观光游览，你还将与当地学生合作开展社区公益项目，增进彼此间的相互了解，缔结长久深厚的友谊。 我们每周还会举办文化展示之夜，你可以在活动中展示自己祖国的风土人情、特色美食与艺术文化。)”可知，第二段对项目的描述，如与当地家庭同住、参加传统工艺工作坊、与当地学生合作项目等可知，参与者能全方位深入地体验当地文化，所以“immersive”意思最接近“all-surrounding and involving（全方位包围且参与其中的）”。 B As a scientist studying biomimicry (仿生学), Dr. Elena Reed spent hours in her laboratory, but her greatest inspiration came from outside. One morning, while walking in a park, she noticed a group of swallows flying swiftly through the trees. They never crashed into branches, even when flying at high speed. “How do they do that?” she wondered. Elena decided to observe the swallows more closely. She set up a small camera near a nest and recorded their flight for weeks. She discovered that the swallows had a special way of seeing. Their eyes could notice tiny movements and judge distances very quickly. This helped them change direction in a flash. Elena realized that this ability could be useful for technology. Back in her lab, Elena and her team worked hard to create a small sensor that copied the swallow’s vision system. They tested it on a mini-drone. The drone, equipped with the new sensor, could fly through a maze of obstacles without hitting any. It was a success! Elena’s invention, inspired by birds, made drones safer and more efficient. Her story shows how observing nature can lead to amazing scientific advances. 4. What was Dr. Elena Reed’s main interest as a scientist? A. Studying different kinds of birds in the forest. B. Creating new cameras for recording animals. C. Learning from nature to develop technology (biomimicry). D. Building faster drones for racing. 5. What did Elena discover about swallows’ eyes? A. They could see colors humans cannot. B. They could notice small movements and judge distances quickly. C. They were much bigger than other birds’ eyes. D. They helped swallows fly longer without resting. 6. The word “obstacles” in the third paragraph most probably means _________. A. things that help movement B. things that are easy to pass C. things that block the way D. things that are very small 7. What is the best title for this passage? A. A New Drone Invention B. The Life of Swallows C. How Birds Fly Safely D. Nature’s Idea for Science 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了科学家受燕子启发发明新技术的事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“As a scientist studying biomimicry (仿生学), Dr. Elena Reed spent hours in her laboratory, but her greatest inspiration came from outside. (作为一名研究仿生学的科学家，Elena Reed博士每天在实验室度过很长时间，但她最大的灵感却来自户外。)”以及后文描述她从燕子身上获得灵感并发明新技术和第三段中“Her story shows how observing nature can lead to amazing scientific advances. (她的故事表明，观察自然能够带来惊人的科学进步。)”可知，Elena Reed博士作为科学家的主要兴趣是从自然中学习以发展技术（仿生学）。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“She discovered that the swallows had a special way of seeing. Their eyes could notice tiny movements and judge distances very quickly. (她发现燕子有着独特的视觉方式。它们的眼睛能够捕捉细微的动静，还能快速判断距离。)”可知，Elena发现燕子的眼睛能注意到微小的动作并迅速判断距离。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“The drone, equipped with the new sensor, could fly through a maze of obstacles without hitting any. (这架配备了新型传感器的无人机，能够飞越一个充满obstacles的迷宫而不撞到任何东西。)”可知，无人机配备新传感器后能飞过障碍物迷宫而不撞到任何东西，由此可推断“obstacles”意为“挡住道路的东西”。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段中“Her story shows how observing nature can lead to amazing scientific advances. (她的故事表明，观察自然能够带来惊人的科学进步。)”可知，文章主要讲述了Elena从自然中获得灵感并发明新技术，展示了自然对科学的启发。D选项“Nature’s Idea for Science (自然给科学的启示)”最贴合全文主旨，是文章的最佳标题。 C In today’s digital world, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and WeChat are a big part of teenagers’ lives. While these platforms help teens connect with friends and learn new things, they also have a deep influence on how teenagers see themselves — their self-identity. On the positive side, social media allows teenagers to explore different interests and ideas. They can join online groups about music, art, sports, or study, which helps them understand what they like and who they want to be. For example, a shy student might find confidence by sharing his drawings online and receiving encouraging comments. This can strengthen his sense of self. However, there are negative effects too. Many teenagers feel pressure to look perfect online. They see edited photos and exciting videos of others’ lives, which can make them feel inadequate (不足). They might start comparing their own lives to these highlights, leading to low self-esteem. Some teens even change their behavior or appearance to get more “likes” and followers, which means they are letting others’ opinions shape their identity. Moreover, the constant feedback on social media — likes, comments, shares — can make teens too focused on online validation. They may start to believe that their value depends on how many people approve of their posts, rather than their real qualities and achievements. In conclusion, social media is a powerful tool that can both help and harm teenagers’ self-identity. It offers chances for self- discovery but also brings risks of comparison and over-reliance on others’ opinions. The key is for teens to use social media wisely, remember their real worth, and balance online life with offline experiences. 8. What is one positive effect of social media on teenagers’ self-identity mentioned in the passage? A. It always makes them feel confident. B. It allows them to explore interests and understand themselves better. C. It helps them get more followers easily. D. It prevents them from feeling shy. 9. Why might some teenagers feel inadequate when using social media? A. Because they see edited photos and exciting videos of others, leading to comparison. B. Because they don’t have enough friends online. C. Because social media platforms are too difficult to use. D. Because they spend too little time online. 10. The word “validation” in the fourth paragraph most probably means _________. A. 批评 B. 改变 C. 忽略 D. 认可/认定 11. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To encourage teenagers to use more social media. B. To explain how to get more likes on social media. C. To discuss both the positive and negative influences of social media on teens’ self-identity. D. To tell a story about a teenager’s success on social media. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讨论了社交媒体对青少年自我认同的双重影响，既指出了其积极作用，也分析了潜在的负面影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段前两句“On the positive side, social media allows teenagers to explore different interests and ideas. They can join online groups about music, art, sports, or study, which helps them understand what they like and who they want to be. (从积极的一面看，社交媒体允许青少年探索不同的兴趣和想法。他们可以加入关于音乐、艺术、运动或学习的线上群组，这有助于他们了解自己喜欢什么以及想成为什么样的人。)”可知，社交媒体的积极影响之一是能够让青少年探索兴趣并更好地了解自己。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第三、四句“They see edited photos and exciting videos of others’ lives, which can make them feel inadequate (不足). They might start comparing their own lives to these highlights, leading to low self-esteem. (他们看到别人生活中经过编辑的照片和令人兴奋的视频，这会让他们感到不足。他们可能会开始将自己的生活与这些精彩片段进行比较，从而导致自尊心下降。)”可知，一些青少年在使用社交媒体时感到不足，是因为他们看到了经过编辑的照片和精彩的视频，并因此产生了比较心理。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Moreover, the constant feedback on social media — likes, comments, shares — can make teens too focused on online validation. They may start to believe that their value depends on how many people approve of their posts, rather than their real qualities and achievements. (此外，社交媒体上不断的反馈——点赞、评论、转发——会让青少年过于关注网上的validation。他们可能会开始相信，自己的价值取决于有多少人认可他们的帖子，而不是他们真实的品质和成就。)”可知，这里的validation指的是来自他人的认可或肯定，即“认可/认定”之意。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。文章第一段统领全文，表明社交媒体在青少年生活中占据重要地位，并深刻影响他们的自我认同。第二段指出社交媒体帮助青少年探索兴趣、发现自我，并能增强自信，这是社交媒体给青少年带来的积极影响。第三段写社交媒体使青少年感到压力、进行比较，甚至为了获得认可而改变自己，第四段写明对线上点赞和评论的过度关注会让青少年把自己的价值建立在他人的认可之上，这两段是社交媒体给青少年带来的消极影响。第五段是结论与建议，指出社交媒体既有积极也有消极影响，关键在于青少年要明智使用，平衡线上与线下生活。全文结构清晰，分别讨论了社交媒体对青少年自我认同的积极和消极影响，并在最后进行总结，因此主要目的是探讨这两方面的影响。 D Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing our world rapidly. From smart assistants to self-driving cars, AI helps us in many ways. However, as AI becomes more powerful, a crucial skill becomes even more important for us: critical thinking. Critical thinking means the ability to think clearly, analyze information, and make reasoned judgments. In the AI era, teaching critical thinking is not just useful, it is necessary, and we must find effective ways to do it. Why is critical thinking education so necessary now? First, AI provides us with huge amounts of information, but not all of it is true or useful. For example, AI tools can write articles or create videos that look very real, but they might contain mistakes or even false information. Without critical thinking, people, especially students, might believe everything they see online, which can be dangerous. Second, many jobs that involve simple, repetitive tasks are being done by AI. Future jobs will require humans to solve complex problems, make ethical decisions, and create new ideas — all of which need strong critical thinking skills. Simply memorizing facts is no longer enough. So, how can we teach critical thinking effectively? Schools should change their methods. Instead of only asking for correct answers, teachers can encourage students to ask “why” and “how.” For instance, in a science class, after learning a fact from an AI-powered search, students should be guided to check other sources and discuss whether the information is reliable. Classroom debates and group projects on real-world issues, like “Should AI be used to make important decisions?” are excellent ways to practice analyzing different viewpoints and building logical arguments. Parents also play a role. At home, they can discuss news stories with their children, asking questions like, “Who wrote this?” and “What evidence supports this claim?” In conclusion, AI is a powerful tool, but it is a tool that we must control with our minds. Critical thinking is the key to using AI wisely and safely. By making critical thinking a core part of education, through interactive teaching and daily practice, we can prepare young people not just to live in a future with AI, but to shape that future thoughtfully and responsibly. 12. What is the main argument of the passage? A. AI will soon replace all human jobs. B. Critical thinking education is essential and should be taught in specific ways in the AI age. C. Using AI is very dangerous for students. D. Schools should focus more on teaching students how to use AI tools. 13. According to the passage, why might believing all AI-provided information be dangerous? A. Because AI tools are too expensive. B. Because AI information is always boring. C. Because AI-generated content can sometimes have errors or be false. D. Because AI works too slowly. 14. The author suggests that future jobs will require humans to do all of the following EXCEPT _________. A. doing simple, repetitive tasks B. solving complex problems C. making ethical decisions D. creating new ideas 15. In the third paragraph, the word “reliable” most probably means _________. A. 可靠的 B. 快速的 C. 有趣的 D. 古老的 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了AI快速改变世界，批判性思维在此时至关重要。文章阐述其必要性，并提出学校和家长应通过互动教学等方式培养这一能力。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing our world rapidly. From smart assistants to self-driving cars, AI helps us in many ways. However, as AI becomes more powerful, a crucial skill becomes even more important for us: critical thinking. Critical thinking means the ability to think clearly, analyze information, and make reasoned judgments. In the AI era, teaching critical thinking is not just useful, it is necessary, and we must find effective ways to do it.(人工智能（AI）正在迅速改变我们的世界。从智能助手到自动驾驶汽车，AI 在很多方面都为我们提供了帮助。然而，随着人工智能变得越来越强大，对我们来说，一项至关重要的技能变得更加重要：批判性思维。批判性思维指的是清晰思考、分析信息以及做出合理判断的能力。在人工智能时代，培养批判性思维不仅有用，而且是必要的，我们必须找到有效的方法来实现这一点)”以及全文围绕“在AI时代，批判性思维教育非常必要，并且需要通过学校、家庭等具体方法来实施”这一核心论点展开。可知，这篇文章的主要论点是在人工智能时代，批判性思维教育是必不可少的，并且应当以特定的方式进行教学。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Why is critical thinking education so necessary now? First, AI provides us with huge amounts of information, but not all of it is true or useful. For example, AI tools can write articles or create videos that look very real, but they might contain mistakes or even false information. Without critical thinking, people, especially students, might believe everything they see online, which can be dangerous.(为何如今批判性思维教育如此重要呢？首先，人工智能为我们提供了海量的信息，但并非所有信息都是真实或有用的。例如，人工智能工具能够撰写文章或制作视频，这些内容看起来非常真实，但其中可能包含错误或甚至是虚假的信息。如果没有批判性思维，人们，尤其是学生，可能会相信他们在网上看到的一切，这可能会带来危险)”可知，相信所有由人工智能提供的信息可能是危险的因为人工智能生成的内容有时可能会有错误或者不真实。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Second, many jobs that involve simple, repetitive tasks are being done by AI. Future jobs will require humans to solve complex problems, make ethical decisions, and create new ideas — all of which need strong critical thinking skills. Simply memorizing facts is no longer enough.(其次，许多涉及简单重复性工作的职位正被人工智能所取代。未来的工作将要求人类能够解决复杂问题、做出道德决策以及提出新想法——所有这些都需要强大的批判性思维能力。仅仅死记硬背知识已经远远不够了)”可知，许多简单的、重复性的工作正由 AI完成，而未来人类的工作需要解决问题、做出决策和创造，因此“做简单的重复性工作”是未来人类工作不需要的。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“Classroom debates and group projects on real-world issues, like “Should AI be used to make important decisions?” are excellent ways to practice analyzing different viewpoints and building logical arguments. Parents also play a role. At home, they can discuss news stories with their children, asking questions like, “Who wrote this?” and “What evidence supports this claim?”(围绕现实问题展开的课堂辩论和小组项目，比如“人工智能是否应该用于做出重要决策？”这类活动是锻炼分析不同观点和构建逻辑论证的绝佳方式。家长也发挥着重要作用。在家里，他们可以与孩子讨论新闻报道，提出诸如“是谁撰写的这篇报道？”以及“有哪些证据支持这一观点？”之类的问题)”，学生被引导去检查其他信息来源，并讨论信息是否“可靠”，即是否值得信赖、准确，因此“reliable”意为“可靠的”。 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。 Do you ever feel stuck when facing a difficult task, thinking, “I’m just not good at this”? This is a sign of a fixed mindset. ____16____ A growth mindset means believing your abilities can improve with effort and learning. Developing this mindset can make you more resilient and successful. Here are some practical ways to build it. First, pay attention to your self-talk. The words you say to yourself matter. When you make a mistake, instead of thinking “I failed,” try thinking, “This is a chance to learn.” ____17____ For example, if you get a low score on a math test, a fixed mindset would say, “I’m bad at math.” A growth mindset would say, “I need to find a better way to study this topic.” ____18____ Challenges are not threats; they are opportunities to grow. When you try something hard, your brain forms new connections. Don’t avoid difficult tasks. Embrace them. Start with small challenges and gradually take on bigger ones. Each time you push through, you prove to yourself that effort leads to improvement. Another key is to value the process over the result. ____19____ Praise yourself for the hard work you put in, not just for a perfect outcome. Did you practice piano for an hour every day? That’s worth celebrating, even if the recital wasn’t flawless. This shift in focus makes you more willing to keep trying. Finally, learn from others. ____20____ Talk to people who have overcome obstacles. Read stories about famous scientists or artists who failed many times before succeeding. Their journeys remind us that struggle is a normal part of the path to mastery. Remember, developing a growth mindset is a journey itself. It won’t happen overnight. But by practicing these steps, you can train your brain to see possibilities instead of limitations. A. This simple change in language can shift your perspective. B. However, you can choose to develop a different way of thinking. C. Therefore, you should always ask for help immediately. D. Second, see challenges as opportunities. E. For instance, watching others succeed can make you feel jealous. F. It’s important to focus on your effort and strategies, not just the final grade or score. G. Surround yourself with people who have a growth mindset. 【答案】16. B 17. A 18. D 19. F 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍固定型思维和成长型思维的区别，并给出四种培养成长型思维的实用方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“This is a sign of a fixed mindset.(这是固定型思维的表现。)”和下文“A growth mindset means believing your abilities can improve with effort and learning.(成长型思维意味着相信能力可以通过努力和学习提升。)”可知，上文引出固定型思维，下文转而介绍成长型思维，中间需要过渡句，衔接两种思维、引出可以换一种思维方式。B项“然而，你可以选择培养一种不同的思维方式。”承上启下，从固定思维过渡到成长思维。 【17题详解】 上文“When you make a mistake, instead of thinking “I failed,” try thinking, “This is a chance to learn.”(犯错时，别想着“我失败了”，试着换个想法：“这是一次学习的机会。)”和下文“For example, if you get a low score on a math test, a fixed mindset would say, “I’m bad at math.” A growth mindset would say, “I need to find a better way to study this topic.”(比如，数学考试分数很低时，固定型思维会想：“我天生数学差。”而成长型思维会想：“我需要找到学习这个知识点更好的方法。”)”可知，上文建议换一种自我心理暗示的说法，空处应总结这种语言上的改变会转变你的看待问题的角度。A项“这种简单的语言转变能改变你的看法。”正好承接上文换说法的建议，引出下文举例。 【18题详解】 根据上一段“First, pay attention to your self-talk.(首先，留意内心的自我对话。)”可知，上一段是第一个建议， 下文“Challenges are not threats; they are opportunities to grow. When you try something hard, your brain forms new connections.(挑战不是威胁，而是成长的契机。当你尝试有难度的事情时，大脑会建立新的神经联结。)”讲挑战不是威胁、是成长机会，是第二条建议。D项“第二，把挑战视作机遇。”结构上对应 First，内容上统领本段主题。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Another key is to value the process over the result.(另一个关键是重视过程，而非只看重结果。)”和下文“Praise yourself for the hard work you put in, not just for a perfect outcome.(为自己付出的辛苦努力点赞，而不只是为完美的结果喝彩。)”可知，本段核心是重过程、重努力策略，不只看最终成绩结果。F项“专注自身努力和方法很重要，而不只是最终分数。”符合语境。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Finally, learn from others.(最后一点，向他人学习。)”可知，空处承接“向他人学习”，建议和拥有成长型思维的人为伴。G项“与拥有成长型思维的人相处。”贴合向他人学习的段落主旨。 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。 Understanding Empathy Last summer, our school organized a community service program. I was assigned to visit Mr. Clark, an elderly man who lived alone. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I walked to his small house. When I knocked on the door, a thin man with gentle eyes opened it. I introduced myself, but he just nodded and gestured for me to come in. The house was tidy but very quiet. I tried to start a ___21___ but he responded with short answers or silence. I felt awkward and unsure. Maybe this was a ___22___ idea. The next week, I visited again. This time, I noticed some old gardening tools in the corner and ___23___ that he might like plants. So, on my third visit, I brought a small pot of sunflowers. His eyes lit up slightly. He pointed to the backyard, where I saw a few dry rose bushes. “I used to… but my hands…” he said slowly, looking at his ___24___ fingers. I finally understood — he loved gardening but couldn’t do it any more. From then on, our ___25___ changed. Instead of trying to talk, I started to ___26___. I would water the plants, and he would sit nearby, giving short instructions. One hot afternoon, after we finished, I was sweating. He ___27___ inside and came back with a glass of cold lemonade. “For you,” he said with a small smile. That simple act ___28___ me deeply. One day, he pointed to an old photo album. We spent the whole afternoon looking at pictures. His voice was filled with ___29___ as he told stories. I just listened. At that moment, I felt a strong connection. I wasn’t just a volunteer; I was a friend sharing his memories. On my last visit, he gave me a handmade wooden birdhouse. “For your ___30___,” he said. I was moved. Through this experience, I learned what empathy truly means. It’s not about pity. It’s about ___31___ someone’s situation, being patient, and ___32___ a connection through understanding. ___33___ I was young and he was old, we found common ground. His backyard was no longer a ___34___ place, but a space where we built ___35___. This experience taught me that empathy is a bridge built with kindness and attention, not just words. 21.

Recently, I observed our morning reading sessions and found a common scene: the classroom is often too quiet. Many students just read silently or in very low voices. Reading aloud in the morning is vitally important. Firstly, it greatly improves our pronunciation and fluency. Secondly, it boosts our confidence in using English publicly. Moreover, by hearing our own voice, we can memorize words and sentence patterns more effectively, which lays a solid foundation for the whole day’s learning. I earnestly hope that every one of us can realize the value of this practice. Let’s fill our morning with clear and confident English voices, creating a more dynamic and productive learning environment together. 范文二 The Importance of Reading Aloud in the Morning As Li Hua, a reporter for our school English newspaper, I conducted interviews about morning reading. The current situation is concerning: during the allocated time, most students remain silent or merely whisper, missing the core purpose of the activity. The importance of reading aloud cannot be overstated. It directly improves our pronunciation and fluency by training our mouth muscles. Simultaneously, it significantly boosts our confidence in speaking English. Most importantly, the combination of seeing, saying, and hearing helps us remember vocabulary and grammar structures much more effectively than silent reading does. My expectation is clear. I hope teachers and class monitors will encourage and organize loud reading every morning. I also hope every student will actively participate, turning this simple habit into a powerful tool for English mastery. 【解析】 【导语】题目要求考生以校英语报记者李华的身份，写一篇题为“The Importance of Reading Aloud in the Morning”的专题采访报道，内容包括晨读现状、大声晨读的重要性及个人期望。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 重要的：important → significant 提高：improve → enhance 有效地：effectively → efficiently 诚挚地：earnestly → sincerely 2. 句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Let’s fill our morning with clear and confident English voices, creating a more dynamic and productive learning environment together. 拓展句：Let’s fill our morning with clear and confident English voices so that we can create a more dynamic and productive learning environment together. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Moreover, by hearing our own voice, we can memorize words and sentence patterns more effectively, which lays a solid foundation for the whole day’s learning.

Lily, a shy 14-year-old girl, was organizing her grandfather’s attic (阁楼) when she discovered an old, leather-bound diary hidden inside a wooden chest. The cover was faded, but the lock was broken. Curious, she opened it and found the first entry dated 1944. The diary belonged to a young soldier named Thomas. As she turned the pages, she read about his fears, hopes, and a promise he made to his best friend, Jack, to return a silver pocket watch to his family if he didn’t survive the war. The last entry was unfinished, ending with, “Tomorrow we march into the forest. I have a bad feeling, but I must keep my promise…” Lily’s heart raced. She remembered her grandfather mentioning a great-uncle named Jack who never returned from World War II. Could this be the same Jack? She rushed downstairs with the diary, her hands trembling. Her grandfather was drinking tea in the living room. “Grandpa,” she said breathlessly, “did you know someone named Thomas?” Her grandfather’s eyes widened. He took the diary gently, his fingers tracing the worn pages. “Where did you find this?” he whispered. “Thomas was my father’s brother. He disappeared during the war. We never knew what happened to him.” Lily felt a mix of excitement and sadness. She knew she had to find out the rest of the story — and perhaps fulfill a long-lost promise. 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。 Paragraph 1: Lily decided to search for more clues about Thomas and the pocket watch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Months later, a surprising letter arrived at Lily’s house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Passage 1： Lily decided to search for more clues about Thomas and the pocket watch. She and her grandfather visited the local history museum, where a curator suggested checking wartime donation records. They discovered that Thomas’s personal belongings, including a small metal box, had been donated anonymously years ago. After tracking down the donor’s family, they learned the box was stored in a basement. With permission, Lily opened it and found the silver pocket watch, still ticking, along with a photo of Thomas and Jack smiling in uniform. Attached was a note: “To Jack’s family — keep this with pride.” Passage 2： Months later, a surprising letter arrived at Lily’s house. It was from a historian specializing in wartime stories, who had heard about Lily’s find online. He offered to help organize a small exhibition at the museum to honor Thomas and Jack’s friendship. The exhibition featured the diary, the watch, and their story, attracting many visitors. Lily, once shy, even gave a short speech about the importance of keeping promises. The experience not only solved a family mystery but also taught Lily that history is alive through memories and acts of kindness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述在一个下雨的周六下午，14 岁害羞的 Lily 在整理祖父阁楼时，发现一本 1944 年的旧日记，日记主人是年轻士兵 Thomas，他在日记里提到对好友 Jack 的承诺，若自己无法从战争中幸存，就将一块银怀表归还给 Jack 的家人。Lily 想起祖父提过未从二战归来的叔公 Jack，猜测日记中的 Jack 就是他。她拿着日记询问祖父，祖父确认 Thomas 是他父亲的兄弟，失踪于战争中。Lily 决定探寻故事的后续，或许还能完成这个被遗忘已久的承诺。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Lily 和祖父去当地历史博物馆寻找线索，馆长建议查看战时捐赠记录，他们发现 Thomas 的个人物品包括一个小金属盒被匿名捐赠。追踪捐赠者家庭后，在地下室找到金属盒，里面有仍在走动的银怀表、Thomas 和 Jack 穿制服微笑的照片以及一张写着 “给 Jack 的家人 —— 骄傲地保存这个” 的纸条。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写几个月后，Lily 家收到一位研究战时故事的历史学家的信，他在网上得知 Lily 的发现，提议在博物馆举办小型展览以纪念 Thomas 和 Jack 的友谊。展览展示了日记、怀表及他们的故事，吸引众多参观者。曾经害羞的 Lily 甚至发表关于信守承诺重要性的简短演讲。这次经历不仅解开家族谜团，还让 Lily 明白历史通过记忆和善意得以延续。。 2.续写线索：Lily 和祖父寻找线索——在地下室找到怀表等——收到历史学家来信——举办展览——Lily 演讲并领悟。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①提供：offer /provide ②帮助：help/assist 情绪类 ①微笑：smile/beam ②害羞的：shy/bashful 【点睛】【高分句型 1】They discovered that Thomas’s personal belongings, including a small metal box, had been donated anonymously years ago.（运用了that引导的宾语从句作 discovered 的宾语 ） 【高分句型 2】The exhibition featured the diary, the watch, and their story, attracting many visitors.（运用了现在分词短语attracting many visitors作伴随状语 ） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025学年第二学期四校期中联考 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；选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂，非选择题必须使用0.5毫米黑色字迹的签字笔书写。 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) 做题时，请先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

The word “immersive” in Paragraph 2 is closest in meaning to _________. A. expensive B. all-surrounding and involving C. short and brief D. independent and solitary (单独的) B As a scientist studying biomimicry (仿生学), Dr. Elena Reed spent hours in her laboratory, but her greatest inspiration came from outside. One morning, while walking in a park, she noticed a group of swallows flying swiftly through the trees. They never crashed into branches, even when flying at high speed. “How do they do that?” she wondered. Elena decided to observe the swallows more closely. She set up a small camera near a nest and recorded their flight for weeks. She discovered that the swallows had a special way of seeing. Their eyes could notice tiny movements and judge distances very quickly. This helped them change direction in a flash. Elena realized that this ability could be useful for technology. Back in her lab, Elena and her team worked hard to create a small sensor that copied the swallow’s vision system. They tested it on a mini-drone. The drone, equipped with the new sensor, could fly through a maze of obstacles without hitting any. It was a success! Elena’s invention, inspired by birds, made drones safer and more efficient. Her story shows how observing nature can lead to amazing scientific advances. 4. What was Dr. Elena Reed’s main interest as a scientist? A. Studying different kinds of birds in the forest. B. Creating new cameras for recording animals. C. Learning from nature to develop technology (biomimicry). D. Building faster drones for racing. 5. What did Elena discover about swallows’ eyes? A. They could see colors humans cannot. B. They could notice small movements and judge distances quickly. C. They were much bigger than other birds’ eyes. D. They helped swallows fly longer without resting. 6. The word “obstacles” in the third paragraph most probably means _________. A. things that help movement B. things that are easy to pass C. things that block the way D. things that are very small 7. What is the best title for this passage? A. A New Drone Invention B. The Life of Swallows C. How Birds Fly Safely D. Nature’s Idea for Science C In today’s digital world, social media platforms like Instagram, TikTok, and WeChat are a big part of teenagers’ lives. While these platforms help teens connect with friends and learn new things, they also have a deep influence on how teenagers see themselves — their self-identity. On the positive side, social media allows teenagers to explore different interests and ideas. They can join online groups about music, art, sports, or study, which helps them understand what they like and who they want to be. For example, a shy student might find confidence by sharing his drawings online and receiving encouraging comments. This can strengthen his sense of self. However, there are negative effects too. Many teenagers feel pressure to look perfect online. They see edited photos and exciting videos of others’ lives, which can make them feel inadequate (不足). They might start comparing their own lives to these highlights, leading to low self-esteem. Some teens even change their behavior or appearance to get more “likes” and followers, which means they are letting others’ opinions shape their identity. Moreover, the constant feedback on social media — likes, comments, shares — can make teens too focused on online validation. They may start to believe that their value depends on how many people approve of their posts, rather than their real qualities and achievements. In conclusion, social media is a powerful tool that can both help and harm teenagers’ self-identity. It offers chances for self- discovery but also brings risks of comparison and over-reliance on others’ opinions. The key is for teens to use social media wisely, remember their real worth, and balance online life with offline experiences. 8. What is one positive effect of social media on teenagers’ self-identity mentioned in the passage? A. It always makes them feel confident. B. It allows them to explore interests and understand themselves better. C. It helps them get more followers easily. D. It prevents them from feeling shy. 9. Why might some teenagers feel inadequate when using social media? A. Because they see edited photos and exciting videos of others, leading to comparison. B. Because they don’t have enough friends online. C. Because social media platforms are too difficult to use. D. Because they spend too little time online. 10. The word “validation” in the fourth paragraph most probably means _________. A. 批评 B. 改变 C. 忽略 D. 认可/认定 11. What is the main purpose of this passage? A. To encourage teenagers to use more social media. B. To explain how to get more likes on social media. C. To discuss both the positive and negative influences of social media on teens’ self-identity. D. To tell a story about a teenager’s success on social media. D Artificial Intelligence (AI) is changing our world rapidly. From smart assistants to self-driving cars, AI helps us in many ways. However, as AI becomes more powerful, a crucial skill becomes even more important for us: critical thinking. Critical thinking means the ability to think clearly, analyze information, and make reasoned judgments. In the AI era, teaching critical thinking is not just useful, it is necessary, and we must find effective ways to do it. Why is critical thinking education so necessary now? First, AI provides us with huge amounts of information, but not all of it is true or useful. For example, AI tools can write articles or create videos that look very real, but they might contain mistakes or even false information. Without critical thinking, people, especially students, might believe everything they see online, which can be dangerous. Second, many jobs that involve simple, repetitive tasks are being done by AI. Future jobs will require humans to solve complex problems, make ethical decisions, and create new ideas — all of which need strong critical thinking skills. Simply memorizing facts is no longer enough. So, how can we teach critical thinking effectively? Schools should change their methods. Instead of only asking for correct answers, teachers can encourage students to ask “why” and “how.” For instance, in a science class, after learning a fact from an AI-powered search, students should be guided to check other sources and discuss whether the information is reliable. Classroom debates and group projects on real-world issues, like “Should AI be used to make important decisions?” are excellent ways to practice analyzing different viewpoints and building logical arguments. Parents also play a role.

This is a sign of a fixed mindset. ____16____ A growth mindset means believing your abilities can improve with effort and learning. Developing this mindset can make you more resilient and successful. Here are some practical ways to build it. First, pay attention to your self-talk. The words you say to yourself matter. When you make a mistake, instead of thinking “I failed,” try thinking, “This is a chance to learn.” ____17____ For example, if you get a low score on a math test, a fixed mindset would say, “I’m bad at math.” A growth mindset would say, “I need to find a better way to study this topic.” ____18____ Challenges are not threats; they are opportunities to grow. When you try something hard, your brain forms new connections. Don’t avoid difficult tasks. Embrace them. Start with small challenges and gradually take on bigger ones. Each time you push through, you prove to yourself that effort leads to improvement. Another key is to value the process over the result. ____19____ Praise yourself for the hard work you put in, not just for a perfect outcome. Did you practice piano for an hour every day? That’s worth celebrating, even if the recital wasn’t flawless. This shift in focus makes you more willing to keep trying. Finally, learn from others. ____20____ Talk to people who have overcome obstacles. Read stories about famous scientists or artists who failed many times before succeeding. Their journeys remind us that struggle is a normal part of the path to mastery. Remember, developing a growth mindset is a journey itself. It won’t happen overnight. But by practicing these steps, you can train your brain to see possibilities instead of limitations. A. This simple change in language can shift your perspective. B. However, you can choose to develop a different way of thinking. C. Therefore, you should always ask for help immediately. D. Second, see challenges as opportunities. E. For instance, watching others succeed can make you feel jealous. F. It’s important to focus on your effort and strategies, not just the final grade or score. G. Surround yourself with people who have a growth mindset. 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。 Understanding Empathy Last summer, our school organized a community service program. I was assigned to visit Mr. Clark, an elderly man who lived alone. I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I walked to his small house.

I tried to start a ___21___ but he responded with short answers or silence. I felt awkward and unsure. Maybe this was a ___22___ idea. The next week, I visited again.

Lily, a shy 14-year-old girl, was organizing her grandfather’s attic (阁楼) when she discovered an old, leather-bound diary hidden inside a wooden chest. The cover was faded, but the lock was broken. Curious, she opened it and found the first entry dated 1944. The diary belonged to a young soldier named Thomas. As she turned the pages, she read about his fears, hopes, and a promise he made to his best friend, Jack, to return a silver pocket watch to his family if he didn’t survive the war. The last entry was unfinished, ending with, “Tomorrow we march into the forest. I have a bad feeling, but I must keep my promise…” Lily’s heart raced. She remembered her grandfather mentioning a great-uncle named Jack who never returned from World War II. Could this be the same Jack? She rushed downstairs with the diary, her hands trembling. Her grandfather was drinking tea in the living room. “Grandpa,” she said breathlessly, “did you know someone named Thomas?” Her grandfather’s eyes widened. He took the diary gently, his fingers tracing the worn pages. “Where did you find this?” he whispered. “Thomas was my father’s brother. He disappeared during the war. We never knew what happened to him.” Lily felt a mix of excitement and sadness. She knew she had to find out the rest of the story — and perhaps fulfill a long-lost promise. 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。 Paragraph 1: Lily decided to search for more clues about Thomas and the pocket watch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: Months later, a surprising letter arrived at Lily’s house. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
