I showed up in yoga pants and was awed by the other participants who were 1 like Olympic gymnasts.I stood in the back row,hoping to blend in.I did not. The instructor hit play on a speaker and the dancing began.The room exploded into coordinated 2.Arms flew.Hips swayed.Feet pounded.And I?I 3. I was always a beat behind every move:when the class moved right,I moved left;when they spun gracefully,I tripped over my dignity.At one point,I was doing something that looked less like Zumba and more like a confused octopus trying to escape a net. But then something 4. Around song four,I caught sight of myself in the mirror.I looked ridiculous.And yet...I was smiling.No one was 5 me.The woman next to me who had been flawlessly 6 every move even gave me a thumbs-up.It was the oddest form of 7 I had received,but it worked.

Leaving the studio,I realized something:the comfort zone is 9 what it sounds like: comfortable.But it's also where your confidence goes to nap forever.You don't grow there.You don't learn there. So,yes,the first time I stepped out of my comfort zone,I also stepped into a version of myself that was 10,sillier,and somehow just a little more fabulous. 1.A.marching B.dancing C.competing D.stretching 2.A.chaos B.applause C.laughter D.violence 3.A.hid B.quit C.panicked D.wandered 4.A.faded B.failed C.evolved D.shifted 5.A.blaming B.joining C.judging D.noticing 6.A.creating B.nailing C.monitoring D.observing 7.A.agreement B.commitment C.entertainment D.encouragement 8.A.stood out B.loosened up C.showed off D.backed down 9.A.rarely B.exactly C.roughly D.usually 10.A.braver B.calmer C.healthier D.luckier 高三年级（英语)第1页（共8页） 餐S扫描全能王 然输1死人群在用的日量Ae ”2.2-2 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词，在给出 提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 A In 2019,I began my Chinese language journey.From the very first lesson,I found it both challenging and exciting.I 11 (fascinate)by the delicacy of the characters and the rhythmic nature of the tones.Soon,my interest extended far 12 the language itself.I discovered that learning the language was a gateway to a vast cultural heritage,and I 13 (eager)began my exploration.Since then,my curiosity as a language learner 14 (grow)into a lasting passion that continues to shape my path.

B For much of my career,my colleagues only saw what I call my"resting science face".It conveys the part of me that's driven to spend hours obsessing over a conference talk or stay up all night for a research grant ()They didn't see the side of me that loves funny TV shows,cracks jokes,and laughs out loud.As a woman and mother,I felt I needed to prove I was serious about the job,in case others view me as too distracted by my personal life. My serious face worked.I landed a job at a great university.But I felt I had to split myself in two一the serious scientist in public,the goofball(犒笑的人)in private.Only later did I realize how much stronger my science,and my relationships,could have been if I'd let both sides show sooner. The first crack in my public persona came when I participated in a local live storytelling show. I described an embarrassing moment from a solo trip to Thailand.To my surprise,when people laughed,it didn't feel bad or shameful.It felt like a warm hug. This reminded me that I might also experiment with being silly at work,too.So,when the semester began,I delivered a lecture dressed in a funny costume.I began kicking off lab meetings by asking my students what brings them joy or makes them laugh.Surprisingly,I found that injecting fun and humor into my work life didn't make me less credible.Instead,students seemed to find me more approachable. 高三年级（英语）第3页（共8页) S扫描全能王 然病1亿人群在用的日mA中 ”。2.2-2 But perhaps most importantly,humor has helped me be resilient.Last winter,my grant for an environmental project was abruptly terminated.After the shock and immediate grief wore off,I turned to my goofy side,writing satires and making joke T-shirts.That's not to say I was living in denial.But making jokes and sharing laughter helped me stay present. In the end,I have come to realize that being myself at work is not a weakness,but rather a strength.So that's why,even as I reimagine my research plans,I'll be putting on a colorful outfit, calling up some friends,and cracking jokes.Now,more than ever,it's time to laugh. 24.Why did the author choose to maintain her"resting science face"at first? A.To help her find a job at a great university. B.To hide her self-doubt in scientific research. C.To avoid being distracted by her personal life. D.To show her commitment and professionalism. 25.What inspired the author to show her humorous side at work? A.A trip to another country. B.Alecture at the start of a term. C.A local live show in public. D.A lab meeting with her students. 26.The incident of the author losing her grant shows that A.jokes enabled her to escape from reality B.a playful attitude helped her pull through C.her funny behavior led to the funding cut D.humor was an instant cure for her sorrow 27.What can we learn from this passage? A.Humor is the shock absorber of life. B.Be who you are and the rest will follow. C.A wise man adapts to circumstances. D.Laugh and the world will laugh with you. c Artists enjoy calling their work"original".For good reason too,as artists,we want to distinguish ourselves and convey a genuine message to the world.But there are hardly any truly original ideas in the art world.Everything has been invented,reinvented,and re-reinvented over again. Recently,I have been reflecting on how I get ideas for my work as a professional photographer. Some of my images can be traced back directly to what inspired them,while some others are more "unique".Nevertheless,I cannot genuinely classify any piece of my output as truly original,since every image ultimately represents a synthesized fusion of previous visual influences,external conceptual inputs from others,and a diverse range of personal life experiences. This personal realization prompts a deeper and more universal inquiry into the nature of originality.If we go by the principle that all ideas are a hodgepodge of other ideas,a natural question arises.Is it possible to trace back and find the original ideas?The first original thought must have been by the first man.Ever since,it has all been one big fake.This definition will take us exactly nowhere,and the debate will end right here.So,let's stop hunting for an original idea,whatever it may mean.Just think how some fashion brands manage to produce two new couture collections each year.Fashion has mastered the art of showing old as new,and new as old. 高三年级（英语）第4页（共8页) 紧因金任 ……2。-。。2。 The approach to originality that I suggest is that all ideas are a byproduct of other ideas,and what truly matters is the intention you hold behind those ideas.If you take inspiration from Rodin's work and see people in a similarly monumental way,there is meaning in the work and you are creating something authentic,something that is authentic and true to you.But,if your intention is to copy Rodin's work because it made him a famous sculptor,your work will have very little meaning and authenticity. The point I am trying to make about authenticity is that it doesn't have to be authentic to anybody else but you.If we take out the obvious instances where one artist copied another artist to make money off the idea,we are left with a world of trillions of thoughts and ideas,each ready to inspire you to create something that is authentic to you,something that speaks to you.Even if you take pictures only because they "look beautiful",they already mean something to you:they mean beauty. 28.What can be inferred about the writer's photographing experience? A.He considers his works truly original.B.He insists on pursuing original creation. C.He traces all photos to direct sources. D.He admits combining various influences. 29.What does the underlined word "hodgepodge"in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A.Mixture. B.Share. C.Revision. D.Repetition. 30.What might the author agree with? A.Authenticity stems from originality. B.There is no such thing as authenticity. C.Authenticity is defined by intentions. D.Originality rests on objective standards. D The most dangerous myths are the ones we don't see.Human exceptionalism-the belief that humans are fundamentally superior to the rest of nature-is one of those myths.This worldview is not hidden because it's obscure-it's hidden because it's everywhere,taken for granted,and rarely questioned.But what struck me most is just how thoroughly this belief has infiltrated ( science-an institution meant to challenge our biases,not reinforce them. Take research on self-awareness.For decades,we believed only humans and certain primate species could recognize themselves in mirrors,a supposed benchmark of self-awareness.But the mirror test is biased toward vision.Dogs experience the world primarily via scent.They pass the smell-based mirror test with ease-demonstrating self-awareness in their dominant sense.When we measure the world with a human-oriented ruler,other species inevitably come up short. Many treat human exceptionalism as a natural conclusion.But recent studies in developmental and cross-cultural psychology suggest otherwise.Beliefs in human exceptionalism aren't an inevitably biological outcome-they instead reflect a cultural worldview. Across repeated studies,when presented with moral dilemmas-such as saving one human or multiple animals-adults overwhelmingly favored humans,even when the trade-off involved 100 dogs or pigs.Children,however,often chose to save multiple animals over one human, 高三年级（英语）第5页（共8页） S扫描全能王 然病1亿人群在用的日量A中 2。-2 valuing human and nonhuman lives far more similarly.This suggests that the human-centred moral frameworks commonly held by adults are not the biological default,but emerge over time through cultural learning-particularly as children become increasingly exposed to the ways other forms of life are used and valued in our society. Research across human cultures also reveals that human exceptionalism is far from universal. Many Indigenous and non-Western knowledge systems reject such natural hierarchies. They recognize other animals,plants,rivers,forests,and mountains as kin:sentient,agentive beings embedded in a shared moral and ecological world.Within these frameworks,the notion that humans are separate or superior simply doesn't hold. While writing my last book,I was introduced to various alternative cosmologies ( that reject the ideology of human exceptionalism.These worldviews model ways of living in greater balance with the rest of the natural world.Some today maintain that humans are the most evolutionarily "successful"species.Success,in this view,is measured by ecological dominance. But in reality,the most resilient ecosystems are built on interdependence.We've constructed our scientific models around struggle and individualism,even though life on earth is held together by relationships and co-evolution. The real insight comes from humility.Seeing ourselves clearly-not as rulers,but as participants in a larger web-is one of the most urgent scientific and moral challenges of our time. 31.The author mentions the mirror test to show that A.good science requires repeated tests B.faulty scientific standards deepen bias C.human tests often favor visual senses D.cognitive tests are invalid for non-primates 32.What leads to the belief of human exceptionalism? A.Human nature.B.Knowledge system.C.Living area. D.Cultural exposure. 33.The author mainly suggests A.reevaluating human-nature relationship B:exploring interdependence across species C.acknowledging the limitation of science D.rejecting the idea of evolutionary success 34.Which would be the best title for the passage? A.Are Humans a Successful Species? B.Putting Humans First Is Not Natural C.What Makes Humans Exceptional? D.Human Exceptionalism:A Global View 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Something annoying about learning:the things that make learning feel productive are usually the things that slow it down.Cramming feels great.You sit down,you grind through the material,and by the end of the session,you feel like you've got it.And then two weeks later-gone.35 The fix is one of the most well-supported findings in learning science:spaced repetition.Instead of bunching all your practice together in one session,you spread it out over time.In the 1880s, 高三年级（英语)第6页（共8页) 餐S扫描全能王 然病1亿人群在用的日mA中 ”2.2-2 Hermann Ebbinghaus discovered what is now called the forgetting curve.Without any review,you lose most of what you learn within a day. 36 Your brain is doing exactly what it's supposed to do-filtering.You encounter an enormous amount of information every day,and your brain has to decide what matters and what doesn't.If you only see something once and never come back to it,your brain reasonably concludes it's not that important.37 When you encounter the same material again,your brain essentially says,"Oh,this keeps coming back.Must be important."And it invests more resources in holding onto it.Each time you successfully recall something after a gap,you reset the forgetting curve. So how long should you wait between sessions?The optimal gap is roughly 10-20%of the time you want to remember the material.For instance,you can space your practice 3-5 days apart if you are studying for a test in a month.38 You're not trying to prevent forgetting;you're trying to practice retrieving after some forgetting has occurred.As long as you get it right,the exact intervals are less critical. You don't need to overcomplicate this.Start with something simple and build from there. 39 It's that you're willing to do the thing that feels harder in the moment because you understand it produces better results in the long run.That's true for spacing.Honestly,it's true for most of learning. A.Spacing delivers a fairly different signal. B.That sounds terrible,but this isn't a design flaw. C.This isn't a failure of effort but a failure of strategy. D.Despite this,the science of the brain tells a different story. E.The most important thing isn't the specific strategy you use. F.Forgetting establishes necessary conditions for stronger re-learning. G.But here's what matters more than any specific schedule:the principle. 第三部分书面表达（共两节，32分) 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分) 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Fast fashion has made it easy for consumers to purchase new clothing frequently and at low cost. But today many people are now seeking something better:clothes that last,are made with intention, and carry real meaning.This is why craftsmanship is coming back. One visible expression of this shift is the renewed interest in repairing garments.From patching worn spots to adding personal embroidery )people are doing it for fun or making their own style.With visible mending,they are not hiding the damage,but showing the story.This hands-on engagement fosters a deeper connection between individuals and their.clothing.People no longer just want to wear clothes-they want to be part of them. 高三年级（英语)第7页（共8页) 紧因金艇 2。-2 The appreciation for craftsmanship is not limited to personal practices,but extends to a broader cultural reevaluation of fashion traditions.Techniques and styles once dismissed as outdated are now increasingly valued for their detail,history,and authenticity.In contrast to the uniformity promoted by fast fashion,many consumers are turning toward garments that carry culture,family stories,and time-honored skills.You see them in handmade jackets and detailed weaving. Sustainability is another major driver of the revival.Fast fashion generates enormous waste and environmental harm,while handcrafted pieces frequently use natural and recycled materials.Many are made to order,eliminating excess production,and most can be repaired and passed down rather than thrown away.Choosing handmade is gentler on the planet and better to the people making the clothes.While big retailers still push out the most clothes,smaller brands are changing the game-not by volume,but by values.They focus on quality over quantity,working with skilled local makers and using materials that last.To avoid waste,many of them slow down production,skip the constant trend-chasing,and even offer pre-orders,which is gaining popularity for letting people wear something real. In a world full of quick,disposable goods,the comeback of craftsmanship represents not a passing trend,but a fundamental shift toward meaning,responsibility,and lasting value in fashion. 40.What kind of clothes are many people looking for today? 41.Apart from personal interest,what other factors contribute to the comeback of craftsmanship? 42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. >Many smaller fashion brands slow down production and even offer pre-orders to gain popularity. 43.How will you apply craftsmanship in another field besides fashion?(In about 40 words) 第二节(20分) 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。世卫组织（WH0)面向全球青少年发起以“携手同行，共 护健康”(Together for Well--Being)为主题的倡议征集活动。你的外国好友Jim打算参加，为此发 来邮件，就倡议内容询问你的建议。请你用英文给他回复，内容包括： 1.提出的建议； 2.建议的理由。 注意：1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, Yours, Li Hua (请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内) 高三年级（英语）第8页（共8页) 餐巴扫描全能王 额元人■在用的日量Ae 0…2…-2
