BookScouter can help with that. After you scan a book’s bar code, the app will pull together offers from different buyers, allowing you to sell each of your books at the best price. Depop While it isn’t an app specifically designed to sell books, Depop which focuses on fashion and style is a highly rated buying/selling app that has a large selection of used books. When you’re ready to sell books, you can take up to four photos, provide a description, and establish your price.

It only has a limited number of books for sale. B “Someone has already released the findings ahead of us.” I woke up to this alarming news in an email from my adviser midway through the third year of my PhD. I was shocked. Just 6 months earlier, after 2 years of failures and dead ends, I had finally found a promising research direction to follow. I had devoted all my efforts to the research, only to find that a preprint had beaten me to it. I began to panic. Was my PhD not meant to be? Should I cut my losses and leave my program? I sought advice from family members, friends, classmates, and former advisers. In the end, I realized I was the only one who could choose my future. I thought about how, ever since learning why clouds form different shapes in the fourth grade, I can’t help but share fun science facts with my friends and family. I remembered how watching the movie Jurassic Park as a young teen had introduced me to biology and encouraged me to pursue it. After reflecting on what gave me joy, I saw a new career path: informing and inspiring the public about scientific knowledge as a communicator. But I still had to decide whether to finish my PhD. I sought advice from professionals working in science communication. Some said having a PhD could give me an edge with potential employers; others said all that mattered was whether I could effectively communicate complex scientific topics. Again, only I could decide. After much debate, I decided I would rather spend a few more years trying to get the PhD, in case it turned out to be an advantage in the future. I will soon finish my PhD, with plans to find a role in science communication after I graduate while many other PhD students are still unsure about their career paths. In the end, I’m grateful someone beat me. Losing my project forced me to reflect on my desires and find an unexpected direction toward a brighter future. 4. What did the author think about his PhD study after hearing the news? A. He should work even harder. B. He needed more research ideas. C. He had chosen the wrong adviser. D. He might not be the right person for it. 5. What helped the author decide on his future career? A. Discussing with his former teachers. B. Looking back at what he truly loved. C. Learning from other students’ choices. D. Finding a job in science communication. 6. Why did the author choose to finish his PhD? A. He was advised to do so by experts. B. He thought it might benefit him later. C. He wanted to prove himself to others. D. He had no better plan for the moment. 7. What can we learn from the author’s story? A. A dead end can lead to a new start. B. Learning should be a gradual process. C. Hard work always pays off in the end. D. Joy can only be found in a job one loves. C Weaver ants’ feet have an incredibly strong grip (抓力) — individual members of one species can, without slipping, hold an entire dead bird hanging off the edge of a table. The mighty insects rarely work alone, and they strategically use their grippy feet to become ever more efficient at pulling leaf tips. In contrast to typical human behavior, ants work harder in larger groups than when alone to pull comparatively huge weights. In a measurable phenomenon called the Ringelmann effect, the more humans join a team, the less effort each individual member tends to apply. Researchers generally owe this to reduced motivation and the difficulty of coordinating (协调) more people. “When you’re pulling on a rope, like a tug-of-war, it’s actually less efficient to have more people lined up,” says biologist Chris Reid, co-author on a new study in Current Biology. Reid and his colleagues connected the tip of a paper leaf to a force-measuring device and filmed weaver ants pulling the tip back across the leaf to fold it. They found single ants pulled 59 times their weight on average, but individuals in groups of 15 pulled 103 times their weight. The more ants were included, the sharper the efficiency increase. To make this happen, the ants form chains of two to four, one behind the other. The front ants bent their legs and pulled hard at the leaf tip with their strong mouthparts while the rear (后面的) ants held the leaf still. The researchers propose these pulling chains could act like force wheels. The front ants are “active pullers,” and the rear ants are the “passive resisters” — they grab on to the front ants’ bodies, plant their sticky feet firmly on the leaf, and store the forces generated by the front ants, so the leaf doesn’t fly backward. “Examples of true super-efficiency are very limited,” says ecologist Scott Powell who was not involved in the study. But along with efficient coordination, weaver ants’ physical characteristics appear to give them an edge. “The world is full of organisms solving problems in ways that are totally different from the way our brains would think to do it.” 8. What can we learn about weaver ants from paragraph 1? A. They cooperate only when hunting. B. They carry loads beyond their weight. C. They use grip mainly for hunting birds. D. They work harder alone than in groups. 9. Why does the author mention the Ringelmann effect in paragraph 2? A. To explain the ants’ strong grippy feet. B. To reveal a limitation in human teamwork. C. To prove that motivation affects performance. D. To stress the ants’ cooperative efficiency by contrast. 10. How do weaver ants achieve super-efficiency? A. By increasing individual pulling strength. B. By pulling leaves separately and strongly. C. By cooperating with clear division of labor. D. By forming pulling chains of varying lengths. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Weaver Ants: Masters of Cooperative Pulling. B. Weaver Ants: Champions of Strongest Pullers. C. Super-efficiency: Secrets of Insect Cooperation. D. Super-efficiency: Myths of Group Performance. D I am a nature writer. I like to think that I have a fairly solid sort of relationship with the more-than-human world: I watch birds, I pick up frogs, I help my kids find beetles under logs. I think nature is complicated, marvellous and perfectly beautiful. But never once in my life have I considered it sacred (神圣的), and never once would it have occurred to me to consider my relationship with nature to be “spiritual”. Current trends make the disquieting claim that higher levels of “nature connectedness” is linked with “greater spirituality” and a doubt about “science over faith”. I believe this romanticized view misses nature’s true essence. Many people today connect with nature not by exploring deep woods or high hills directly, but through books and nature writing. This is acceptable because modern life is busy, and reading allows us to be “transported to deep woods or high hills by ink marks on wood paper”. However, the real issue is what we think we are connecting with. Nature is not a fantasy or a simple story; it exists on the same ordinary planet as us, still fascinating and awe-inspiring. Some nature writers suggest we learn moral lessons from nature, like resilience (韧性) from grass or how to stick together from moss. But I warn against this simplistic view. Nature also shows harsh realities, such as the constant struggle for survival. Relying on nature for moral guidance can be misleading. Instead, “wise humanism consists of finding our own lessons among ourselves,” meaning we should seek wisdom from human experience and shared values. I hope that nature writing will continue to develop, embracing more complexity and diverse perspectives. I believe it should reflect the living, breathing world and our place in it, including interactions with other humans from different backgrounds. By doing so, nature writing can offer a richer, more realistic understanding of both nature and ourselves, keeping pace with the ever-changing world. 12. What does the underlined word “disquieting” in paragraph 1 mean? A. annoying B. inspiring C. troubling D. surprising 13. What can we learn about “romanticized view” in paragraph 2? A. It captures the essence of nature. B. It values science over spirituality. C. It sees nature as perfectly beautiful. D. It treats nature as sacred and spiritual. 14. What is the author’s main criticism of some nature writers? A. They accept nature’s harsh realities. B. They oversimplify nature’s lessons. C. They seek wisdom from human values. D. They rely too much on personal experience. 15. What does the author think of future nature writing? A. Simplify nature for easy reading. B. Avoid interactions between people. C. Focus on personal spiritual growth. D. Present a complex and inclusive view. 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，其中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think solo (独自的) travel would be sad for me.

The evening sun cast long shadows on the quiet street, but Alan barely noticed. His sports bag felt heavier than usual, each step echoing the coach’s words from earlier that day — the list for the next match was posted, and Alan’s name was missing. A deep sense of loss filled his heart, tightening his chest. He remembered his father, a passionate volleyball player in his youth, who had spent countless evenings in their backyard, patiently practising serves (发球) and spikes (扣球) with him since childhood. The thought of letting his father down was unacceptable, and Alan replayed those memories. Lost in these sad thoughts, Alan wasn’t watching his path. He rounded a corner and walked straight into someone, stumbling (踉跄) slightly. It was Mia, a friendly girl from his class. Instead of getting angry, Mia simply smiled. “You seem quite worried,” she said. “Sorry,” Alan said in a low voice and began to share his problem. Mia listened carefully. “You hit the ball really hard,” Mia said, “Please watch the game closely. Use your head, not just your body.” The next afternoon, the school hall was full of the sounds of the big match. Alan sat quietly on the bench, hoping for a chance to play. His team was struggling. When a teammate got injured, the coach called, “Alan, get in and play now!” Finally, the chance came. Nervously, Alan stepped onto the court. The game was at match point for the other team. Alan felt worried until he thought of Mia’s words: “Watch and think.” He took a deep breath. Then, he watched the server closely. And when the ball was served, Alan was ready. He passed perfectly, and after a good performance, he scored a point: 24:24! 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: He focused, watching every move of the opposing team nervously. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After celebrating, his father and Mia came over. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二期中质量检测试卷·英语 注意：本试卷满分150分，考试时间120分钟；所有答案填写在答题卡上，否则无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。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.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了四款可以帮助用户出售二手书的应用程序，分别说明了它们各自的操作方式、特点及适用情况。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据World of Books中的“When you have a book to sell, simply scan its bar code with the app’s built-in scanner. World of Books immediately gives you its price, and then automatically loads the title into your selling cart. (当你有书要卖时，只需用应用程序内置的扫描器扫描其条形码。World of Books会立即给出价格，然后将该书自动加入出售购物车。)”以及BooksRun中的“Scan the book’s bar code, get an immediate offer, and let the app automatically collect your books into a cart. (扫描书的条形码，立即获得报价，然后让应用程序自动将书加入购物车。)”可知，这两款应用都是通过扫描条形码后自动提供报价。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据BookScouter中的最后两句“BookScouter can help with that. After you scan a book’s bar code, the app will pull together offers from different buyers, allowing you to sell each of your books at the best price. (BookScouter可以在这方面提供帮助。当你扫描一本书的条形码后，该应用会汇集来自不同买家的报价，使你能够以最优价格出售每本书。)”可知，这款应用的主要作用是帮助用户比较不同买家给出的价格，从而选择最佳报价，它是一个比价平台。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Depop中的第二句“When you’re ready to sell books, you can take up to four photos, provide a description, and establish your price.

(当你扫描一本书的条形码后，该应用会汇集来自不同买家的报价，使你能够以最优价格出售每本书。)”可知，Depop需要卖家完成更多操作，包括拍照、写描述和自主定价，而另外三款应用都是通过扫描条形码自动生成报价和完成入库。 B “Someone has already released the findings ahead of us.” I woke up to this alarming news in an email from my adviser midway through the third year of my PhD. I was shocked. Just 6 months earlier, after 2 years of failures and dead ends, I had finally found a promising research direction to follow. I had devoted all my efforts to the research, only to find that a preprint had beaten me to it. I began to panic. Was my PhD not meant to be? Should I cut my losses and leave my program? I sought advice from family members, friends, classmates, and former advisers. In the end, I realized I was the only one who could choose my future. I thought about how, ever since learning why clouds form different shapes in the fourth grade, I can’t help but share fun science facts with my friends and family. I remembered how watching the movie Jurassic Park as a young teen had introduced me to biology and encouraged me to pursue it. After reflecting on what gave me joy, I saw a new career path: informing and inspiring the public about scientific knowledge as a communicator. But I still had to decide whether to finish my PhD. I sought advice from professionals working in science communication. Some said having a PhD could give me an edge with potential employers; others said all that mattered was whether I could effectively communicate complex scientific topics. Again, only I could decide. After much debate, I decided I would rather spend a few more years trying to get the PhD, in case it turned out to be an advantage in the future. I will soon finish my PhD, with plans to find a role in science communication after I graduate while many other PhD students are still unsure about their career paths. In the end, I’m grateful someone beat me. Losing my project forced me to reflect on my desires and find an unexpected direction toward a brighter future. 4. What did the author think about his PhD study after hearing the news? A. He should work even harder. B. He needed more research ideas. C. He had chosen the wrong adviser. D. He might not be the right person for it. 5. What helped the author decide on his future career? A. Discussing with his former teachers. B. Looking back at what he truly loved. C. Learning from other students’ choices. D. Finding a job in science communication. 6. Why did the author choose to finish his PhD? A. He was advised to do so by experts. B. He thought it might benefit him later. C. He wanted to prove himself to others. D. He had no better plan for the moment. 7. What can we learn from the author’s story? A. A dead end can lead to a new start. B. Learning should be a gradual process. C. Hard work always pays off in the end. D. Joy can only be found in a job one loves. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者因研究受挫转而探索新职业方向的经历。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“I began to panic. Was my PhD not meant to be? Should I cut my losses and leave my program? (我开始恐慌起来。难道我的博士生涯注定如此吗？我是否应该及时止损，离开这个项目？)”可知，作者怀疑自己或许不适合攻读博士。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After reflecting on what gave me joy, I saw a new career path: informing and inspiring the public about scientific knowledge as a communicator. (在反思了什么能带给我快乐之后，我看到了一条新的职业道路：作为一名传播者，向公众传播和激发他们对科学知识的兴趣。)”可知，回顾自己真正热爱的事物帮助作者决定了未来的职业。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“After much debate, I decided I would rather spend a few more years trying to get the PhD, in case it turned out to be an advantage in the future. (经过反复斟酌，我决定宁愿再多花几年时间拿下博士学位，以防日后这会成为我的一项优势。)”可知，作者选择完成博士学位是因为他认为这可能会在未来给他带来好处。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In the end, I’m grateful someone beat me. Losing my project forced me to reflect on my desires and find an unexpected direction toward a brighter future. (最终，我反而很感激有人抢在了我前面。研究项目的失之交臂迫使我反思自己真正的渴望，并意外地找到了通往更光明未来的方向。)”可知，作者的研究项目虽然被别人抢先发表了，但这反而促使他反思自己真正的兴趣所在，并找到了科学传播这一新的职业方向。这说明“绝境可以带来新的开始”。 C Weaver ants’ feet have an incredibly strong grip (抓力) — individual members of one species can, without slipping, hold an entire dead bird hanging off the edge of a table. The mighty insects rarely work alone, and they strategically use their grippy feet to become ever more efficient at pulling leaf tips. In contrast to typical human behavior, ants work harder in larger groups than when alone to pull comparatively huge weights. In a measurable phenomenon called the Ringelmann effect, the more humans join a team, the less effort each individual member tends to apply. Researchers generally owe this to reduced motivation and the difficulty of coordinating (协调) more people. “When you’re pulling on a rope, like a tug-of-war, it’s actually less efficient to have more people lined up,” says biologist Chris Reid, co-author on a new study in Current Biology. Reid and his colleagues connected the tip of a paper leaf to a force-measuring device and filmed weaver ants pulling the tip back across the leaf to fold it. They found single ants pulled 59 times their weight on average, but individuals in groups of 15 pulled 103 times their weight. The more ants were included, the sharper the efficiency increase. To make this happen, the ants form chains of two to four, one behind the other. The front ants bent their legs and pulled hard at the leaf tip with their strong mouthparts while the rear (后面的) ants held the leaf still. The researchers propose these pulling chains could act like force wheels. The front ants are “active pullers,” and the rear ants are the “passive resisters” — they grab on to the front ants’ bodies, plant their sticky feet firmly on the leaf, and store the forces generated by the front ants, so the leaf doesn’t fly backward. “Examples of true super-efficiency are very limited,” says ecologist Scott Powell who was not involved in the study. But along with efficient coordination, weaver ants’ physical characteristics appear to give them an edge. “The world is full of organisms solving problems in ways that are totally different from the way our brains would think to do it.” 8. What can we learn about weaver ants from paragraph 1? A. They cooperate only when hunting. B. They carry loads beyond their weight. C. They use grip mainly for hunting birds. D. They work harder alone than in groups. 9. Why does the author mention the Ringelmann effect in paragraph 2? A. To explain the ants’ strong grippy feet. B. To reveal a limitation in human teamwork. C. To prove that motivation affects performance. D. To stress the ants’ cooperative efficiency by contrast. 10. How do weaver ants achieve super-efficiency? A. By increasing individual pulling strength. B. By pulling leaves separately and strongly. C. By cooperating with clear division of labor. D. By forming pulling chains of varying lengths. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Weaver Ants: Masters of Cooperative Pulling. B. Weaver Ants: Champions of Strongest Pullers. C. Super-efficiency: Secrets of Insect Cooperation. D. Super-efficiency: Myths of Group Performance. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了织叶蚁通过团队协作和分工实现超高效拉拽树叶的现象，并与人类团队合作中的效率下降形成对比。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Weaver ants’ feet have an incredibly strong grip (抓力) — individual members of one species can, without slipping, hold an entire dead bird hanging off the edge of a table. (织叶蚁的脚具有令人难以置信的强大抓力——其中一个物种的单个个体，就能牢牢抓住一只悬在桌边、完整的死鸟而不滑落)”可知，织叶蚁能够抓住一只悬挂在桌子边缘的整个死鸟，说明它们能提起超过自身体重的重物。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“In contrast to typical human behavior, ants work harder in larger groups than when alone to pull comparatively huge weights.(与人类的典型行为相反，蚂蚁在群体中会比单独行动时更加努力，以拉动相对巨大的重量)”、第二段中“In a measurable phenomenon called the Ringelmann effect, the more humans join a team, the less effort each individual member tends to apply. (在一个被称为林格尔曼效应的可测量现象中，加入团队的人越多，每个成员付出的努力就越少)”以及第三段中“They found single ants pulled 59 times their weight on average, but individuals in groups of 15 pulled 103 times their weight. (他们发现，单只蚂蚁平均能拉动自身重量59倍的物体，但15只蚂蚁群中的个体能拉动自身重量103倍的物体)”可知，作者提到林格尔曼效应是为了通过对比来强调蚂蚁团队协作的效率。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The more ants were included, the sharper the efficiency increase.(参与的蚂蚁越多，效率提升就越显著)”和第四段“To make this happen, the ants form chains of two to four, one behind the other. The front ants bent their legs and pulled hard at the leaf tip with their strong mouthparts while the rear (后面的) ants held the leaf still. The researchers propose these pulling chains could act like force wheels. The front ants are “active pullers,” and the rear ants are the “passive resisters” — they grab on to the front ants’ bodies, plant their sticky feet firmly on the leaf, and store the forces generated by the front ants, so the leaf doesn’t fly backward. (为了做到这一点，蚂蚁会排成由两到四只蚂蚁组成的链条，首尾相接。前面的蚂蚁弯曲腿部，用有力的口器用力拉扯叶尖，而后面的蚂蚁则保持叶子静止。研究人员提出，这些拉力链可以像力轮一样工作。前面的蚂蚁是“主动拉力者”，后面的蚂蚁是“被动阻力者”——它们抓住前面蚂蚁的身体，把粘性的脚牢牢地固定在叶子上，储存前面蚂蚁产生的力量，这样叶子就不会向后飞))”可知，织叶蚁是通过明确的分工协作实现超高效。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段“Weaver ants’ feet have an incredibly strong grip... and they strategically use their grippy feet to become ever more efficient at pulling leaf tips. (织叶蚁的脚具有令人难以置信的强大抓力……它们策略性地使用它们有抓力的脚，在拉拽叶尖时变得更加高效)”以及第三段“They found single ants pulled 59 times their weight on average, but individuals in groups of 15 pulled 103 times their weight. (他们发现，单只蚂蚁平均能拉动自身重量59倍的物体，但15只蚂蚁群中的个体能拉动自身重量103倍的物体)”和第四段对蚂蚁分工协作方式的描述可知，文章主要介绍了织叶蚁通过团队协作实现超高效拉拽树叶的能力。故A项“Weaver Ants: Masters of Cooperative Pulling (织叶蚁：合作拉拽的大师)”能概括文章内容，最适合做文章标题。 D I am a nature writer. I like to think that I have a fairly solid sort of relationship with the more-than-human world: I watch birds, I pick up frogs, I help my kids find beetles under logs. I think nature is complicated, marvellous and perfectly beautiful. But never once in my life have I considered it sacred (神圣的), and never once would it have occurred to me to consider my relationship with nature to be “spiritual”. Current trends make the disquieting claim that higher levels of “nature connectedness” is linked with “greater spirituality” and a doubt about “science over faith”. I believe this romanticized view misses nature’s true essence. Many people today connect with nature not by exploring deep woods or high hills directly, but through books and nature writing. This is acceptable because modern life is busy, and reading allows us to be “transported to deep woods or high hills by ink marks on wood paper”. However, the real issue is what we think we are connecting with. Nature is not a fantasy or a simple story; it exists on the same ordinary planet as us, still fascinating and awe-inspiring. Some nature writers suggest we learn moral lessons from nature, like resilience (韧性) from grass or how to stick together from moss. But I warn against this simplistic view. Nature also shows harsh realities, such as the constant struggle for survival. Relying on nature for moral guidance can be misleading. Instead, “wise humanism consists of finding our own lessons among ourselves,” meaning we should seek wisdom from human experience and shared values. I hope that nature writing will continue to develop, embracing more complexity and diverse perspectives. I believe it should reflect the living, breathing world and our place in it, including interactions with other humans from different backgrounds. By doing so, nature writing can offer a richer, more realistic understanding of both nature and ourselves, keeping pace with the ever-changing world. 12. What does the underlined word “disquieting” in paragraph 1 mean? A. annoying B. inspiring C. troubling D. surprising 13. What can we learn about “romanticized view” in paragraph 2? A. It captures the essence of nature. B. It values science over spirituality. C. It sees nature as perfectly beautiful. D. It treats nature as sacred and spiritual. 14. What is the author’s main criticism of some nature writers? A. They accept nature’s harsh realities. B. They oversimplify nature’s lessons. C. They seek wisdom from human values. D. They rely too much on personal experience. 15. What does the author think of future nature writing? A. Simplify nature for easy reading. B. Avoid interactions between people. C. Focus on personal spiritual growth. D. Present a complex and inclusive view. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要批判了将自然神圣化的观点并展望自然写作未来。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“Current trends make the disquieting claim that higher levels of “nature connectedness” is linked with “greater spirituality” and a doubt about “science over faith”. (当前的一些趋势提出了一种disquieting观点，即更高程度的“自然连接感”与“更强的精神性”以及对“科学高于信仰”的怀疑相关联。)”以及第二段中的“I believe this romanticized view misses nature’s true essence.(我认为，这种浪漫化的看法忽视了大自然的真正本质。)”可知，作者对这种将自然连接与精神性挂钩并质疑科学的说法持否定态度，因此认为这种趋势是令人不安的。因此，“disquieting”意为“令人不安的”，与troubling (令人烦恼/不安的) 意思最接近。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“But never once in my life have I considered it sacred (神圣的), and never once would it have occurred to me to consider my relationship with nature to be “spiritual”. (但在我的一生中，我从未认为它是神圣的，也从未想过要将我与自然的关系视为“精神上的”。)”及第二段中“I believe this romanticized view misses nature’s true essence. (我认为，这种浪漫化的看法忽视了大自然的真正本质。)”可知，这种“浪漫化的观点”是将自然视为神圣和精神的。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Some nature writers suggest we learn moral lessons from nature, like resilience (韧性) from grass or how to stick together from moss. But I warn against this simplistic view. (一些自然作家建议我们从自然中学习道德上的启示，比如从草身上学习韧性，或者从苔藓身上学习如何团结一致。但我提醒大家不要接受这种过于简化的观点。)”可知，作者批评一些自然作家过于简化自然的启示。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“I hope that nature writing will continue to develop, embracing more complexity and diverse perspectives.(我希望自然写作能够继续发展，包容更多的复杂性和多样的观点。)”及“By doing so, nature writing can offer a richer, more realistic understanding of both nature and ourselves, keeping pace with the ever-changing world. (通过这样做，自然写作能够提供对自然和我们自身更丰富、更真实的理解，并与不断变化的世界保持同步。)”可知，作者认为未来自然写作应展现复杂且包容的视角。 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，其中有两项为多余选项。 I used to think solo (独自的) travel would be sad for me. I might see beautiful scenery, but it meant nothing if I had no one to look at it with. Well, that’s just not true. According to Hilton’s 2026 travel trends report, 25% of the travelers surveyed plan to travel alone this year. ____16____ Maybe you’re seeking a break, an adventure, or like me, simply some time away from your familiar daily life. Here’s how to plan a solo trip. Firstly, it is recommended that first-time solo travelers start small. ____17____ See if you can just have a beach day by yourself. Or take a day trip and go to a place you’ve never been before. Explore on your own. Then maybe build up to a weekend trip. Besides, just be smart about where you choose to go. ____18____ Once you’re ready to head off to another country solo, the best thing to do is go somewhere that’s English speaking or that speaks whatever languages that you know. ____19____ Do you want to sign up for a group retreat, something like yoga or surfing? Or would you prefer to act totally on your own and improvise (即兴发挥) when it comes to activities? From there, aim for somewhere that’s easy to navigate and already sees locals and travelers alike. Discomfort or loneliness can sometimes show up in solo travel. That’s Okay. ____20____ When you develop bonds with strangers, new friends and even yourself, you are never truly alone. Best of all, the connections can inform and serve your home life in the most valuable ways. A. Try to make connections. B. Land on a destination that suits you. C. Remember to plan your travel in advance. D. A solo trip can bring far more to you than you think. E. You should also take a close look at what you actually want. F. Of course, people’s reasons for solo travel are wide-ranging. G. You can try out some solo mini trips close to your home first. 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. B 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了独自旅行并非想象中那样孤单，并给出了如何规划独自旅行的几点建议。 【16题详解】 后文“Maybe you’re seeking a break, an adventure, or like me, simply some time away from your familiar daily life. (也许你是在寻求休息、冒险，或者像我一样，只是想暂时远离熟悉的日常生活。)”表明人们独自旅行的原因各不相同。F选项“Of course, people’s reasons for solo travel are wide-ranging. (当然，人们独自旅行的原因多种多样。)”中的“reasons”与后文的具体原因相呼应，能引起后文。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Firstly, it is recommended that first-time solo travelers start small. (首先，建议初次独自旅行的人从小处着手。)”可知，本段建议先从小的、近的地方开始尝试。后文“See if you can just have a beach day by yourself. Or take a day trip and go to a place you’ve never been before. (看看你是否可以自己在海滩待上一天。或者进行一次一日游，去一个你从未去过的地方。)”给出从小的、近的地方开始独自旅行的具体建议。G选项“You can try out some solo mini trips close to your home first. (你可以先尝试一些离家近的独自短途旅行。)”说明了如何“从小处着手”，起到承上启下的作用。 【18题详解】 根据前文“Besides, just be smart about where you choose to go.(此外，要明智地选择你要去的地方。)”可知，本段强调选择合适的目的地。B选项“Land on a destination that suits you. (选定一个适合你的目的地。)”中的“destination”与前文“where you choose to go”直接对应，指出前文所说的“明智选择要去的地方”是指适合自己的地方。后文“Once you’re ready to head off to another country solo, the best thing to do is go somewhere that’s English speaking or that speaks whatever languages that you know. (一旦你准备好独自前往另一个国家，最好的选择是去说英语或说你所掌握语言的地方。)”又进一步给出选择目的地的具体建议。前文、B选项、后文形成逻辑上的顺承与递进，符合语境。 【19题详解】 分析语篇可知，此处应为本段主旨句。根据后文“Do you want to sign up for a group retreat, something like yoga or surfing? Or would you prefer to act totally on your own and improvise when it comes to activities? (你是想报名参加团体度假活动，比如瑜伽或冲浪？还是更愿意完全自主行动，在活动方面即兴发挥？)”可知，本段引导读者思考自己真正想要什么样的旅行方式，并给出具体的参考。E选项“You should also take a close look at what you actually want. (你也应仔细审视自己真正想要什么。)”能引起后文，后文是对该选项所谈内容的具体思考，适合作本段的主旨句。 【20题详解】 前文“Discomfort or loneliness can sometimes show up in solo travel. That’s Okay. (独自旅行中有时会出现不适或孤独感。这没关系。)”指出独自旅行可能面临的问题。后文“When you develop bonds with strangers, new friends and even yourself, you are never truly alone. (当你与陌生人、新朋友甚至自己建立联系时，你永远不会真正孤独。)”指出面对这些负面情绪的具体解决方法是与人建立联系。A选项“Try to make connections. (尝试建立联系。)”承接前文，给出方法，且其中的“make connections”又与后文“develop bonds”构成同义复现，直接点明了应对孤独感的具体做法，起到了承上启下的作用，符合语境。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 There’s a quiet lane in London’s Camden where passers-by often take several photos.

The evening sun cast long shadows on the quiet street, but Alan barely noticed. His sports bag felt heavier than usual, each step echoing the coach’s words from earlier that day — the list for the next match was posted, and Alan’s name was missing. A deep sense of loss filled his heart, tightening his chest. He remembered his father, a passionate volleyball player in his youth, who had spent countless evenings in their backyard, patiently practising serves (发球) and spikes (扣球) with him since childhood. The thought of letting his father down was unacceptable, and Alan replayed those memories. Lost in these sad thoughts, Alan wasn’t watching his path. He rounded a corner and walked straight into someone, stumbling (踉跄) slightly. It was Mia, a friendly girl from his class. Instead of getting angry, Mia simply smiled. “You seem quite worried,” she said. “Sorry,” Alan said in a low voice and began to share his problem. Mia listened carefully. “You hit the ball really hard,” Mia said, “Please watch the game closely. Use your head, not just your body.” The next afternoon, the school hall was full of the sounds of the big match. Alan sat quietly on the bench, hoping for a chance to play. His team was struggling. When a teammate got injured, the coach called, “Alan, get in and play now!” Finally, the chance came. Nervously, Alan stepped onto the court. The game was at match point for the other team. Alan felt worried until he thought of Mia’s words: “Watch and think.” He took a deep breath. Then, he watched the server closely. And when the ball was served, Alan was ready. He passed perfectly, and after a good performance, he scored a point: 24:24! 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: He focused, watching every move of the opposing team nervously. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After celebrating, his father and Mia came over. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 He focused, watching every move of the opposing team nervously. The next serve came, fast and low, but Alan kept calm. He remembered Mia’s words, eyes fixed on the ball, and jumped at the right moment to block it. The ball bounced back, and his teammates seized the chance to spike. Cheers erupted from the crowd as they scored again, taking the lead 25:24. The opposing team fought back fiercely, but Alan stayed focused, passing accurately and defending firmly. When the final ball was served, he leaped high, spiking it hard to the ground. The whistle blew — his team won! After celebrating, his father and Mia came over. His father patted him warmly on the shoulder, eyes shining with pride. “I’m so proud of you, son,” he said. “You didn’t just play with strength, but with your head.” Mia smiled and waved, “See? You’re amazing when you watch and think.” Alan felt a rush of joy and relief, the sense of loss gone. He realized that failure wasn’t the end, but a chance to grow. From that day on, he practiced harder, knowing that success comes from both effort and wisdom. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了艾伦因没能入选排球比赛名单而万分失落，担心辜负一直陪他练球的父亲。途中他偶遇米娅，对方开导他打球不仅要靠体力，更要动脑观察、冷静思考。比赛当天，队友意外受伤，艾伦临危上场。关键时刻，他谨记建议，沉着应对、精准配合，助力球队逆转取胜。赛后，他收获了父亲与米娅的肯定，也明白了努力与智慧并存才能收获成长。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写艾伦谨记建议，沉着应对、精准配合，助力球队逆转取胜。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写赛后，艾伦收获了父亲与米娅的肯定，也明白了努力与智慧并存才能收获成长。 2.续写线索：艾伦比赛——沉着应对——球队取胜——庆祝获胜——艾伦感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①想起：remember/recall ②抓住：seize/grasp 情绪类 ①了不起的：amazing/marvelous ②快乐：joy/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1] When the final ball was served, he leaped high, spiking it hard to the ground.（运用了when引导时间状语从句） [高分句型2] From that day on, he practiced harder, knowing that success comes from both effort and wisdom.（运用了that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
