Each island in the Caribbean has its unique way of celebrating Carnival, but all share a common theme of the enduring spirit of its people, blending history, culture, and joy. In Trinidad and Tobago, Carnival began in the late 18th century when enslaved people, banned from participating in the parties of French plantation owners, created their own festival, developing Calypso music as a form of communication. Today, Trinidad’s Carnival is known as the “greatest show on earth”, featuring events like J’ouvert, stickfighting, and the Panorama steelpan competition. Guadeloupe’s Carnival is known for its reflections on reality, with traditional drumming, stilted figures called moko-zobis, and lifeful street parades. The island’s rich history is also showcased at the Mémorial ACTe Museum, which explores the legacy of the slave trade. Martinique’s Carnival is another highlight, with its origins in the 17th and 18th centuries. Enslaved Africans used satire, music, and dance to express their freedom. The celebration includes parades, funny parties, and the ceremonial burning of King Vaval on Ash Wednesday. In Barbados, the Crop Over Festival marks the end of the sugarcane harvest. This summer celebration culminates in Grand Kadooment Day, a grand parade filled with colorful costumes and music. The festival is a source of pride for Bajans, celebrating their agricultural heritage. Finally, Dominica’s Mas Domini k offers a unique Carnival experience set against the backdrop of lush rainforests. The celebration includes J’ouvert, Calypso music, and a kiddie carnival, making it a family-friendly event. 21．What is the origin of Carnival in Trinidad and Tobago? A．An event of the ancient music. B．A tradition of the costume parties. C．A celebration created by enslaved Africans. D．A festival introduced by French plantation owners. 22．What is a key feature of Martinique’s Carnival? A．The Crop Over festival. B．The burning of King Vaval. C．The use of traditional drumming. D．The Panorama steelpan competition. 23．What do the Carnivals in Caribbean have in common? A．Parade. B．Costume. C．Harvest. D．Music. B At 17, Toronto’s Sheriauna Haase has already carved an extraordinary path as a world-class paraathlete, dancer, and actress. In November 2023, she secured dual bronze medals in the 100m and 200m races at Santiago’s Parapan American Games — a striking achievement for a teen who began paraathletics training just one year earlier. Born with a congenital limb reduction (先天性肌肉萎缩), Haase credits her success to resilience (复原力), self-belief, and the transformative power of support. Haase’s athletic success is extended by her vibrant artistic pursuits. A dancer since age two, Haase channels self-expression through movement, landing roles in TV series like Circuit Breakers and The Next Step. Through acting, she advocates for disability representation, transforming dance into a celebration of identity, empowering her to accept her uniqueness. Childhood bullying (欺凌) once shook her confidence, but her family, especially her mother, became her anchor. “They taught me to love myself as I am,” she says. This self-acceptance fueled her determination to master ballet routines and sprinting techniques alike. Guided by coach Bob Westman, Athletics Canada’s lead para coach, Haase shaped her raw talent into medal-winning precision within two months. Westman, with over a decade of Paralympian training experience, praised her “focus, drive, and maturity”. Now an ambassador for Holland Bloorview Children’s Rehabilitation Hospital, Haase champions inclusivity, inspiring others to accept their potential. Coach Westman predicts she’ll become a household name, not only for her athletic excellence but for her infectious enthusiasm for life. Her story highlights the power of self-love, support, and an unyielding spirit, urging others to celebrate uniqueness and unlock their boundless potential. “I want people to feel empowered,” she affirms. 24．What can we learn about Haase from paragraph 1? A．She gained remarkable results despite short training. B．Her medals came from many years of focused practice. C．Her training covered different fields from an early age. D．She stressed more on hard training than improving skills. 25．What does the underlined word “anchor” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．A noticeable pride. B．A competitive challenge. C．A reminder of duty. D．A source of strength. 26．Which of the following best describes Sheriauna Haase? A．Confident and reserved. B．Independent and humble. C．Talented and tough-minded. D．Knowledgeable and inspiring. 27．What can be learned from Sheriauna Haase’s story? A．Talent in a field is the key to success. B．Self-acceptance helps to beat barriers. C．Disabilities set boundaries to our life. D．Achievements result from creativity. C Each year, an estimated 53,000 tourists visit Antarctica, and they could each be unintentionally contributing to the melting of 83 tonnes of snow, according to a new study published in Nature Communications. The culprit is black carbon, created when fossil (化石) fuels and biomass are burnt. Black carbon settles on the snow, causing it to darken in colour. This increases the absorption of heat from the sun and quickens melting. Due to its remoteness, Antarctica has a low background level of black-carbon pollution compared to other parts of the world. However, the new study indicates that black carbon from Antarctic tourism and research activities has nevertheless had a notable effect on the icy landscape. The international research team measured black carbon concentrations in snow collected from 28 sites along a 2,000-kilometre stretch of the northern Antarctic Peninsula. The researchers found that black carbon levels were higher near research facilities and landing sites for tourist ships than at more remote regions of the peninsula. The study estimates that, in heavily impacted areas, black carbon pollution is causing snowpack to decrease by up to 23 millimetres each year. Altogether, an estimated 4.4 megatonnes per year of snow is melting more quickly in the summer due to the impacts of black carbon from tourism alone — translating to 83 tonnes per visitor. Although these figures are striking, the real impact could be more complex than the data suggest. “It is likely that local emissions (排放) account for most of the black carbon content in samples collected around research facilities and popular shore tourist-landing sites,” the paper states. Ships, aero planes, helicopters, generators and trucks are known sources of black carbon that can settle on snow. The study authors suggest that tourist cruises (巡航) and fuel-powered equipment at scientific research stations are likely the largest sources of black-carbon pollution in the study area. That’s despite efforts in recent years to reduce the environmental footprint of Antarctic tourism, such as switching to marine diesel (船用柴油) or deep cycle battery power. “Our results show that more remains to be done to reduce the impacts of tourism and ships in Antarctica,” the authors write. 28．According to the first two paragraphs, what is the main reason for the melting of snow in Antarctica? A．The cold wind from the sea. B．The rising number of tourists visiting Antarctica every year. C．The absorption of heat from the sun by dark-colored black carbon. D．The increasing number of fossil fuel-burning factories in Antarctica. 29．How is black carbon produced in Antarctica? A．From winds blowing in foreign dust. B．From volcanic activities under the ice. C．From natural changes in temperature. D．From fuel use in tourism and research. 30．What do the figures in paragraph 5 most likely imply? A．They exactly show each visitor’s carbon footprint. B．The impact of human activity may be underestimated. C．They suggest that Antarctica tourism should be banned. D．The data may overstate the snowpack melting problem. 31．What do the authors think of current environmental efforts in Antarctica? A．They still show limited effect. B．They paint a rosy picture. C．They are a drop in the bucket. D．They boost Antarctica tourism. D Working robots, like the KASRO, are typically big, simple, and strong. They are large preprogrammed units working in dangerous and dull jobs. But the growing trend towards collaborative(合作的) robots, or cobots, is transforming robotic use worldwide. What big companies such as Germany’s Mercedes-Benz discovered was that robots alone were not enough to keep pace with the demand for customized products. Human-robot collaboration was identified as the most suitable strategy. By shrinking robots down to desktop size and equipping them with sensors and AI, the next generation of cobots will feel our presence, learn from us, and cooperate with us better. “When we have people and machines cooperate, we’re much more flexible and can produce many more products on one production line,” said head of production planning, Markus Schaefer. “The variety is too much to take on for the machines.” The future of cobot working is likely to change as new ways of interacting are developed. Voice commands are bound to be a feature as natural language processing systems become more widespread. Closer integration( 融合 ) with machine learning and AI is sure to help realize the benefits of elements such as voice control and machine vision. Unplanned changes to production and safer interaction with humans will then require a step-change in robot learning. Cobots will learn directly from human interaction or even from simulations( 模拟) that will help them to adapt to real-world situations. Open robotics platforms, such as Carnegie Mellon University’s LoCoBot or Elephant Robotics’ Catbot, mean that programmers can share the skills they have developed via the cloud. Importantly, for household robots to become popular, robot learning—where environmental data is gathered to make more ideal decisions— will be needed. Cobot carers, such as ElliQ the companion robot and IKEA’s robotic furniture, promise a bright future of cooperation. Like any achievable technological dream, such as self-driving cars, their realization is  coming soon. Cobots will become standard in the same way that a car’s GPS or the smartphone did. Their integration into society will gradually become normal. 32．What inspired Mercedes-Benz to recognize the need for human-robot collaboration? A．The fast pace of modern life. B．The decreasing size of robots. C．The diversity of customer demands. D．The great demand for personal robots. 33．What might Markus Schaefer’s words in Paragraph 3 imply? A．People are much smarter than machines. B．Cobots contribute a lot to effective production. C．It’s difficult for people to cooperate with machines. D．Robots are playing a steady role on the production line. 34．What can Carnegie Mellon University’s LoCoBot mainly help researchers do? A．Share and improve their skills. B．Make improvements on Catbot. C．Interact with robots more efficiently. D．Examine robots’ machine learning feature. 35．Why does the author mention GPS in the last paragraph? A．To prove the wide use of high-tech machines. B．To predict possible difficulties in cobot development. C．To introduce another direction in robot development. D．To explain the popularity of cobots in the future. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 I’m sure we all know by now that exercise is great for you. 36 So, in this post, I am going to share my top four reasons for working out. Firstly, exercise can completely change your mood! When you work out, your body produces endorphins, which will give you a rush of happiness. 37 Next time you’re having a bad day, try going for a fast-paced run, and the day won’t seem so bad after all. Secondly, exercising is sociable. Whenever I move to a new city to study or work, I look for exercise classes to do. 38 Usually, you all share a collective feeling of euphoria when the class finishes! Thirdly, exercise makes you feel confident. We all know the physical effects of exercise on our bodies but we don’t always talk about the mental effects. Exercise might give you a feeling of confidence from being comfortable with your body and appearance. 39 Finally, it helps to relieve stress. Focusing on lifting weights or going for a run can help you forget the problems and stress of daily life, studies or work. During exams, I always spend an hour a day in the gym. It makes me feel less anxious and it also helps me to sleep well. 40 It might not be easy but it’s a great feeling doing something you couldn’t do before and knowing it’s a result of your hard work. A．What kinds of exercise do you usually take? B．You will feel better after a workout than you did before it. C．But most exercise classes are too expensive for ordinary people. D．This new confidence might even help in your social or work life. E．So, next time you’re feeling down, put your trainers on and get sweating. F．But sometimes finding that motivation to work out can be a little difficult. G．You meet like-minded people there, and you can support each other during a difficult workout. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空 （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。 From a young age, I was fascinated by language.

Initially, I wanted to throw it away, but my wife suggested we give the remaining Popsicles to the neighborhood children. Her suggestion changed our life and led us to a future full of “Popsicle Kids.” My wife and I, retired on Social Security, live in an apartment complex. After careers in sales and nursing, our daily concerns revolved around aches, pains, and dinner. We often wondered what good we were to the world. That changed dramatically after we gave away the first Popsicle. Minutes after watching a neighbor boy, a second grader, walk away with an icy treat, our doorbell rang. An adorable blond girl, about six, smiled sweetly, “Is it true you’re giving away Popsicles?” With the box empty, we returned to our concerns. Early the next morning, the doorbell rang repeatedly. Standing on our porch were the four children from the previous day. They vocalized their wants, chanting (有节奏地喊), “We want Popsicles! We want Popsicles!” Looking into their eager young faces, I wondered, “What have I started?” Sensing a victory, they nodded eagerly when I explained the rules: ring the bell once, one Popsicle per day, and share something good about their day. But their thin shoulders bent downwards in disappointment when I mentioned they had to give something in return. I came to the rescue, suggesting they share something positive about their day, like what they learned at school or helping another student. Over time, new rules were added: “Ladies first,” “Don’t interrupt,” and “Properly get rid of the sticks.” On holidays, they expressed their understanding of why the day was celebrated. Over the years, about fifty youngsters visited. Some became part of my life, like the four kids who joined me on the steps one spring to read “Where the Red Fern Grows.” We discussed catching crawfish, loving pets, and family relationships. This simple act of sharing Popsicles transformed our life, bringing joy and meaning to both the children and ourselves. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph1: One night, another boy appeared at the door, saying “I don’t want a Popsicle; I just need to talk” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Paragraph 2： I’ve sensed it’s more than Popsicles that bring these kids to our door. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 高二英语 第 1 页（共 4 页） 高二英语 第 2 页（共 4 页） 高二英语 第 1 页（共 4 页） 高二英语 第 2 页（共 4 页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二年级5月练习——英语试题 参考答案及评分标准 1．B 【知识点】学校人员 、图书馆与借书 【原文】W: Excuse me, do you have The Cat in the Hat?

Treasurer Jaclyn Symes said these changes could help improve work participation and productivity, and close the gender pay gap. “My mom had to leave the workforce when she got married,” Allan said. She said workers, especially women, should have the right to achieve a balance between work and life. It’s believed that this law could save the average worker in Victoria about $70 and three hours a week, and also reduce traffic on roads. The law would be the first of its kind in Australia, although more than a third of all Australians already work from home. Melbourne Mayor Nick Reece said the law isn’t fair to those who are unable to work from home. “If you’re a teacher, a police officer or a nurse, you have to turn up to do your job,” he said. 21．C 22．B 23．D 【知识点】外国文化与节日、音乐与舞蹈、说明文 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了加勒比海的一些岛屿的狂欢节。 21．细节理解题。根据第二段中“In Trinidad and Tobago, Carnival began in the late 18th century when enslaved people, banned from participating in the parties of French plantation owners, created their own festival, developing Calypso music as a form of communication.( 在特立尼达和多巴哥，狂欢节始于18世纪末，当时被奴役的人们被禁止参加法国种植园主的聚会，他们创造了自己的节日，发展了卡利普索音乐作为一种交流形式。)”可知，特立尼达和多巴哥的狂欢节起源于被奴役的非洲人创造的庆祝活动。故选C项。 22．细节理解题。根据第四段“Martinique’s Carnival is another highlight, with its origins in the 17th and 18th centuries. Enslaved Africans used satire, music, and dance to express their freedom. The celebration includes parades, funny parties, and the ceremonial burning of King Vaval on Ash Wednesday.( 马提尼克岛的狂欢节是另一个亮点，起源于17世纪和18世纪。被奴役的非洲人用讽刺、音乐和舞蹈来表达他们的自由。庆祝活动包括游行，有趣的派对，以及在圣灰星期三焚烧瓦瓦尔国王的仪式。)”可知，马提尼克岛狂欢节的一个关键特征是在圣灰星期三焚烧瓦瓦尔国王。故选B项。 23．细节理解题。通读全文可知，特立尼达和多巴哥狂欢节发展了卡利普索音乐；瓜德罗普岛狂欢节有传统击鼓；马提尼克岛狂欢节中被奴役的非洲人用音乐表达自由；巴巴多斯的丰收节有音乐；多米尼克的狂欢节有卡利普索音乐。所以加勒比地区的狂欢节都有音乐这一元素。故选D项。 24．A 25．D 26．C 27．B 【知识点】记叙文、个人经历、励志故事 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是Sheriauna Haase如何通过自我接纳和坚韧不拔的精神，在残疾人运动、舞蹈及表演领域取得非凡成就的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“In November 2023, she secured dual bronze medals in the 100m and 200m races at Santiago’s Parapan American Games—a striking achievement for a teen who began paraathletics training just one year earlier.(2023年11月，她在圣地亚哥举行的泛美运动会上获得了100米和200米的两枚铜牌——对于一个一年前才开始接受残奥会训练的青少年来说，这是一个惊人的成就。)”可知，Haase在开始残奥训练仅一年后就获得了两枚铜牌，这表明她在短时间内取得了显著的成就。故选A项。 25．词句猜测题。根据划线单词上文的“but her family, especially her mother(但她的家人，尤其是她的母亲)”和下文的“They taught me to love myself as I am(他们教会我爱我自己)”可知，她的家人，尤其是她的母亲肯定是给她足够的支持和鼓励，成为她的精神支柱，所以划线单词“anchor”的意义为“精神支柱；靠山”。故选D项。 26．推理判断题。根据第一段的句子“In November 2023, she secured dual bronze medals in the 100m and 200m races at Santiago’s Parapan American Games—a striking achievement for a teen who began paraathletics training just one year earlier.(2023年11月，她在圣地亚哥举行的泛美运动会上获得了100米和200米的两枚铜牌——对于一个一年前才开始接受残奥会训练的青少年来说，这是一个惊人的成就。)”可知，Haase有运动天赋。根据第二段的句子“A dancer since age two, Haase channels self-expression through movement, landing roles in TV series like Circuit Breakers and The Next Step.(哈斯从两岁起就开始跳舞，他通过动作来表达自我，在电视剧《熔断机制》和《下一步》中出演了角色。)”可知，Haase有表演天赋。根据第三段“Childhood bullying (欺凌) once shook her confidence, but her family, especially her mother, became her anchor. “They taught me to love myself as I am,” she says. This self-acceptance fueled her determination to master ballet routines and sprinting techniques alike.(童年的欺凌曾经动摇过她的信心，但她的家人，尤其是她的母亲，成为了她的支柱。她说：“他们教会我爱我自己。这种自我接纳让她下定决心要掌握芭蕾套路和短跑技术。)”和最后一段的句子“Her story highlights the power of self-love, support, and an unyielding spirit, urging others to celebrate uniqueness and unlock their boundless potential.(她的故事强调了自爱、支持和不屈不挠的精神的力量，敦促其他人庆祝独特性，释放他们无限的潜力。)”可知，Haase意志坚定。故选C项。 27．主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第三段的句子““They taught me to love myself as I am,” she says. This self-acceptance fueled her determination to master ballet routines and sprinting techniques alike.(她说：“他们教会我爱我自己。这种自我接纳让她下定决心要掌握芭蕾套路和短跑技术。)”和最后一段的句子“Her story highlights the power of self-love, support, and an unyielding spirit, urging others to celebrate uniqueness and unlock their boundless potential.(她的故事强调了自爱、支持和不屈不挠的精神的力量，敦促其他人庆祝独特性，释放他们无限的潜力。)”可知，Haase的故事强调了自我接纳和韧性在克服障碍中的重要性。她的成功不仅在于她的天赋，还在于她对自我的接纳和积极的心态。故选B项。 28．C 29．D 30．B 31．A 【知识点】环境污染、说明文、碳足迹 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项研究表明南极旅游活动通过黑碳排放加速雪层融化，目前的环保措施尚未有效遏制黑碳污染，研究者呼吁加强减排行动。 28．细节理解题。题干意思是根据前两段内容，南极洲冰川融化的主要原因是什么？根据文章第二段第二句“Black carbon settles on the snow, making it darken in colour. This increases the absorption of heat from the sun and quickens melting.（黑碳沉淀在雪上，使其颜色变暗。这增加了对太阳热量的吸收，加速了融化。）”可知，南极洲冰川融化的主要原因是因为黑碳对太阳热量的吸收，从而加速了融化。结合选项，A选项的意思是来自海洋的风；B选项的意思是每年访问南极洲的游客人数的增加；C选项的意思是黑碳对太阳热量的吸收；D选项的意思是在南极洲越来越多的燃烧化石燃料的工厂，可知本题正确答案为C。故选C项。 29．细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, the new study indicates that black carbon from Antarctic tourism and research activities has nevertheless had a notable effect on the icy landscape. (然而，这项新研究表明，南极旅游和科研活动产生的黑碳仍对这片冰雪景观产生了显著影响)”可知，黑碳是由旅游和研究中使用的燃料产生的。故选D项。 30．推理判断题。根据第五段中“The study estimates that, in heavily impacted areas, black carbon pollution is causing snowpack to decrease by up to 23 millimetres each year. Altogether, an estimated 4.4 megatonnes per year of snow is melting more quickly in the summer due to the impacts of black carbon from tourism alone — translating to 83 tonnes per visitor. (研究表明，在污染严重的区域，黑碳污染导致积雪每年减少多达23毫米。仅旅游活动产生的黑碳影响，就导致每年约440万吨积雪在夏季加速融化——相当于每位游客造成83吨的积雪消融)”可知，这些数据表明黑碳污染导致的积雪融化量非常巨大，暗示了人类活动的影响可能被低估了。故选B项。 31．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“That’s despite efforts in recent years to reduce the environmental footprint of Antarctic tourism, such as switching to marine diesel (船用柴油) or deep cycle battery power. (尽管近年来已采取多项措施来减少南极旅游的环境足迹——例如改用船用柴油或深循环电池供电——但问题依然存在)”和最后一段中该研究的作者们所说的话“Our results show that more remains to be done to reduce the impacts of tourism and ships in Antarctica (我们的研究结果表明，要减少旅游活动和船舶对南极洲的影响，仍需付出更多努力)”可知，现有的环保措施尚未有效遏制黑碳污染，需要更多的努力来解决这一问题。由此可知，作者们认为这些努力的效果仍然有限。故选A项。 32．C 33．B 34．A 35．D 【知识点】科学技术 、说明文、语意转化、逻辑推理、目的意图 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。目前，机器人主要被用于危险或乏味的工作。人机合作机器人的研发将会使机器人的使用全球化、大众化。这种新型机器人能够利用机器学习能力、人工智能等前沿科技感知人类、向人类学习、与人类更好地合作。 32．细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句“What big companies such as Germany’s Mercedes-Benz discovered was that robots alone were not enough to keep pace with the demand for customized products. Human-robot collaboration was identified as the most suitable strategy.” 可知，Mercedes-Benz 发现单靠机器人无法跟上定制产品需求的步伐，而最合适的策略是人机协作。由此可见，Mercedes-Benz 受客户需求多样化的启发认识到了人机协作的必要性。故选C。 33．推理判断题。在第三段中，Markus Schaefer 首先点明我们在与机器合作时更加灵活、生产效率更高，然后指出生产线上的变数太多，机器无法呈现如此多样性的生产任务，因此推断他的话暗示着人机合作机器人能更好地促进生产。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据第五段第二句“Open robotics platforms, such as Carnegie Mellon University’s LoCoBot or Elephant Robotics’ Catbot, mean that programmers can share the skills they have developed via the cloud.”可知，卡内基梅隆大学的 LoCoBot 是一个机器人学习平台，这类平台的存在意味着程序设计员能在上面分享技巧，从而不断进行自我改善。由此可推知，卡内基梅隆大学的 LoCoBot 主要是能帮助研究人员分享和提升技能。故选A。 35．推理判断题。最后一段第一句首先点明作者的观点：人机合作机器人像自动驾驶汽车一样，很快就会成为现实。第二、三句说明了人机合作机器人会像汽车的 GPS 和智能手机一样，融入社会，成为一种常态。因此推断作者提到GPS是为了说明作者认为在将来，人机合作机器人会被普及。故选D。 36．F 37．E 38．G 39．D 40．B 【知识点】体育健身 、个人保健 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了锻炼的四个理由。 36．根据上文“I’m sure we all know by now that exercise is great for you.(我相信我们现在都知道锻炼对你有好处)”以及后文“So, in this post, I am going to share my top four reasons for working out.(所以，在这篇文章中，我将分享我锻炼的四大理由)”可知，后文提到锻炼四个理由，可见找到锻炼的动力存在困难。故F选项“但有时找到锻炼的动力可能有点困难。”符合语境，故选F。 37．根据上文“Firstly, exercise can completely change your mood! When you work out, your body produces endorphins, which will give you a rush of happiness.(首先，锻炼可以完全改变你的情绪!当你锻炼时，你的身体会产生内啡肽，这会给你带来幸福感)”以及后文“Next time you’re having a bad day, try going for a fast-paced run, and the day won’t seem so bad after all.(下次你有糟糕的一天，试着去快节奏的跑步，这一天终究不会看起来那么糟糕)”可知，本段提到锻炼可以改善情绪，故E选项“所以，下次你情绪低落的时候，穿上运动鞋，出汗吧”符合语境，故选E。 38．根据上文“Secondly, exercising is sociable. Whenever I move to a new city to study or work, I look for exercise classes to do.(其次，锻炼是社交。每当我搬到一个新的城市学习或工作时，我就会去参加健身课程)”以及后文“Usually, you all share a collective feeling of euphoria when the class finishes!(通常，当课程结束时，你们都会分享一种集体的愉悦感！)”可知，本段的主旨是锻炼也是社交，即锻炼时可以找到和自己志同道合的人。故G选项“在那里你会遇到志同道合的人，在艰苦的锻炼中你们可以互相支持”符合语境，故选G。 39．根据上文“Thirdly, exercise makes you feel confident. We all know the physical effects of exercise on our bodies but we don’t always talk about the mental effects. Exercise might give you a feeling of confidence from being comfortable with your body and appearance.(第三，锻炼使你感到自信。我们都知道运动对身体的影响，但我们并不总是谈论运动对精神的影响。锻炼可能会让你对自己的身体和外表感到舒适，从而产生自信的感觉)”可知，本段的主旨是锻炼带来自信，本句为本段最后一句，继续说明自信的作用。故D选项“这种新的自信甚至会对你的社交或工作生活有所帮助”符合语境，故选D。 40．根据后文“It might not be easy but it’s a great feeling doing something you couldn’t do before and knowing it’s a result of your hard work.(这可能不容易，但这是一种伟大的感觉做你以前不能做的事情，知道这是你努力工作的结果)”可知，本段为文章最后一段，上文提到做以前不能做的事情会产生很棒的感觉，故B选项“锻炼后你会比锻炼前感觉更好”符合语境，故选B。 41．C 42．D 43．B 44．C 45．D 46．A 47．B 48．C 49．D 50．B 51．A 52．B 53．C 54．D 55．D 【知识点】语言学习经历、记叙文、个人经历 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者学习语言的经历，说明学习语言最重要的是建立与他人沟通的桥梁，它们让你体验你可能从未考虑过的方面和感知。 41. C. mastered A. imagined 想象；B. explained 解释；C. mastered 掌握，精通；D. revised 复习，修订 句意：我掌握祖母教我的威尔士语单词，还模仿亲戚们当地的口音。 解析：本题考查动词词义辨析。根据前文“从小痴迷语言”以及后文“模仿口音”的语境，此处表达熟练学会、掌握语言词汇，master符合语境；imagine侧重主观想象，explain侧重解释说明，revise侧重复习修订，均与语境不符。 42. D. accents A. quotes 引语；B. tales 故事；C. tones 语气，音调；D. accents 口音 句意：模仿亲戚们当地的口音。 解析：本题考查名词词义辨析。结合语言学习的语境，模仿当地人的语音腔调属于学习口音，accent特指地方口音；quote指话语引述，tale指故事，tone侧重说话的语气、声调，均不符合语境。 43.B. respond A. wait 等待；B. respond 回应，答复；C. bear 忍受；D. decline 拒绝，下降 句意：我没法回应（他们的提问），他们就跑开了。 解析：本题考查动词词义辨析。前文提到两个男孩向我提问，此处表示无法对问题做出答复，respond符合交际语境；wait侧重等待，bear侧重忍受，decline侧重拒绝、衰退，均与语境矛盾。 44.

Today, AI can write, paint, and even drive cars. Many companies use AI to make work easier and faster. In schools, AI helps students learn by answering questions and giving useful advice. More people are using AI in their daily lives, such as voice assistants and smart home devices.   In my opinion, AI is bringing both chances and challenges. On one hand, it makes life more convenient and improves efficiency. On the other hand, it may replace some jobs, making people worried. Also, AI is not perfect, and mistakes can happen.   It’s important for us to learn about AI and use it wisely. If we understand AI better, we can work with it instead of fearing it.

He sat on the couch, looking down at his shoes, his face filled with anxiety. Slowly, he opened up about the argument he had with his best friend at school that day. I listened attentively, nodding occasionally to show I was there for him. After he poured out his feelings, I shared some stories of my own childhood conflicts and how I resolved them. By the end of our talk, his frown had turned into a faint smile. Before leaving, he thanked me earnestly, and I realized that our little Popsicle tradition had become a safe haven for these kids. Paragraph 2： I’ve sensed it’s more than Popsicles that bring these kids to our door. Beyond the sweet treats, it’s the sense of trust and understanding we’ve built. We’ve become their confidants, their listening ears. For us, these interactions have filled our retired life with purpose and warmth. We’ve witnessed their growth, their joys, and their sorrows. Each time the doorbell rings, it’s not just the anticipation of sharing a Popsicle but an opportunity to connect, to offer comfort, and to be a part of these young lives. In return, they’ve given us a new perspective on life and a deeper appreciation for the simple yet profound power of human connection. 【知识点】善行义举（个人） 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了一对靠社保退休的夫妻，原本生活单调，对自身价值感到迷茫。一次偶然将孙子留下的剩余棒冰分给邻居孩子的举动，开启了“棒冰孩子”的故事。孩子们因棒冰而来，夫妻为此制定分享规则，随着时间推移，分享棒冰的过程逐渐成为孩子们交流生活趣事、表达想法的契机，也让夫妻见证了孩子们的成长。在这一过程中，分享棒冰不仅给孩子们带来快乐，也赋予了这对退休夫妻生活新的意义 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“一天晚上，另一个男孩出现在门口，说：“我不想要冰棍，我只是想聊聊天。””可知，第一段可描写小男孩告诉作者自己在学校发生的事，作者分享自己的故事——安慰小男孩的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“我已经意识到，把这些孩子吸引到我们家门口的不只是冰棍。”可知，第二段可描写作者经过这件事的感悟。 2.续写线索：告知学校发生的事——认真倾听——分享自己的故事——表示感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：be filled with/be full of ②解决：resolve/deal with ③意识到：realize/be aware of ④提供：offer/provide 情绪类 ①悲伤：sorrow/sadness ②惊讶的：surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1]Before leaving, he thanked me earnestly, and I realized that our little Popsicle tradition had become a safe haven for these kids.（运用了that引导宾语从句） [高分句型2]After he poured out his feelings, I shared some stories of my own childhood conflicts and how I resolved them.（运用了after引导时间状语从句，how引导宾语从句） 答案第1页，共2页 答案第1页，共2页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Excuse me, do you have the cat in the hat?
