However, to review past life in a new perspective, he finally set off for India as his initial destination. The first few months were difficult. Andreas felt lonely, but later he understood it was something deeper. He admitted he was hungry for an adventure and wanted to chase some mountains and meet people, being independent and free. “I have built my identity from my job and the roles in my family. Then I let go of all of them, which is the hardest part of my journey,” he explains. When Andreas reached India, which was his original goal, he decided to keep going. He dreamed of cycling around the world. Over the next three years, he travelled through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and Africa. He crossed deserts in Australia and the Sahara, where temperatures reached 51℃. The wind and sand were terrible, and he often questioned his decision. But he also experienced moments of deep peace, especially in the Australian outback. One special moment happened when Andreas turned 33. His mother had died at that age, so this birthday was very emotional. He felt both sadness for his mother and gratitude for the amazing life he was living. This experience changed him. “I used to be career-focused,” he says. “Now my priorities are different.” After three years and eight months, Andreas finally returned home. He had cycled 55,000 kilometers across five continents and 50 countries. He looked like Robinson Crusoe with a long beard, but he was happy. Now Andreas has a new perspective on life. He no longer wants to sit in front of a screen all day. His adventure taught him to face his fears and appreciate simple things. Although the journey was physically and mentally challenging, it completely transformed him. As he says, “Change is a constant companion on the road.” 4. Why did Andreas decide to cycle to India originally? A. To find a new career. B. To reevaluate his life. C. To set a world record. D. To make a living abroad. 5. What troubled Andreas most during the first few months? A. The loneliness on the road. B. The uncertainty about his route. C. The physical tiredness from cycling. D. The feeling of losing his former self. 6. What occurred to Andreas after turning 33? A. He shifted away from his career-driven life. B. He missed his mother much more. C. He planned to cycle across more deserts. D. He wanted to write a book about his trip. 7. What message does the author want to convey through Andreas’s story? A. Face the changes in life bravely. B. Simplicity brings brief happiness. C. Family ties shape our life choices. D. See the world in a variety of ways. C Although Shakespeare never used the words “ecology” or “environmentalism” in his plays, he was thinking about nature in ways that still matter today. He wrote during a time when early capitalism and global trade were changing how people viewed the natural world. His plays show that he understood nature’s limits and the dangers of trying to control it completely. One way Shakespeare shows ecological awareness is through weather. He lived during a period of unusual cooling, and his characters often complain about strange seasons. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Titania describes how the seasons have become mixed up — spring, summer and autumn no longer follow their normal patterns. Today, these words remind us of climate change and extreme weather. Shakespeare also witnessed environmental problems caused by population growth. As London expanded, demand for wood increased. Trees were cut down to build houses and theaters, and to fuel new industries like iron-making and glass production. This led to England’s first major deforestation crisis. When wood became too expensive, people turned to coal, which was cheaper but caused more pollution. Through Shakespeare’s eyes, we see the beginning of the shift to fossil fuels that has led to today’s climate crisis. At the same time, deforestation encouraged early efforts to protect nature. Some ancient trees were given names to save them from being cut down. New farming methods, mentioned in plays like As You Like It, helped improve soil health and food production. Shakespeare also noticed the overfishing of herrings and cod, which warns us about the need to protect ocean life today. Perhaps the most serious environmental threat in Shakespeare’s plays is war. The production of weapons required iron and gunpowder, which led to more deforestation and pollution. Government officials even took animal waste from farmers to make gunpowder, causing conflicts between environmental needs and military demands. Shakespeare shows us how economic growth, national power and environmental protection often come into conflict. His plays remind us that these problems are not new — and that we still face similar choices today. 8. Why is A Midsummer Night’s Dream mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To introduce a mythical character. B. To illustrate a historical climate event. C. To describe the patterns of the seasons. D. To show Shakespeare’s literary creativity. 9. Why did people turn to coal in Shakespeare’s time? A. It was cleaner. B. It was cheaper. C. It was easier to get. D. It was richer in energy. 10. What was Shakespeare’s attitude towards environmental problems? A. Concerned. B. Dismissive. C. Optimistic. D. Cautious. 11. What can we infer about environmental issues from Shakespeare’s plays? A. They have been ignored for centuries. B. They are more serious today than before. C. They are deeply rooted in human history. D. They are fictional in the early literary works. D Dogs have been “man’s best friend” for thousands of years, which might seem long enough to understand them well. However, a new study from Arizona State University’s dog science lab suggests we may not be reading our dogs’ emotions as accurately as we believe. According to animal behavior researchers Holly Molinaro and Clive Wynne, our interpretation of dog feelings can be clouded by our own mood. Their earlier study this year revealed that owners’ viewpoints of dog emotions are often biased by circumstances. For instance, people tend to assume their dogs are happier at the park than during bath time, regardless of the actual cues (提示) their furry friends are giving off. “Even though people think they know what their dog is feeling, we found that they judge the dog’s emotions based on the situation,” Molinaro explained. Building on this, Molinaro and Wynne’s new study explores another influencing factor: the person’s own emotional state. They asked 300 university students to evaluate videos of dogs displaying objectively positive, neutral, or negative emotions. To eliminate environmental influence, the backgrounds were blacked out. In the first experiment, participants were primed (引导) into positive, neutral, or negative moods using images unrelated to animals — a method proven effective in psychology studies. While this priming influenced participants’ self-reported emotions, it surprisingly did not affect their opinions of the dogs’ emotional states. For the second experiment, the researchers created species-specific priming materials: images of dogs selected from the Open Affective Standardized Image Set. This successfully induced (诱发) moods, but produced puzzling results. Participants primed for positive emotions tended to rate dogs as sadder, while those in negative moods rated dogs as happier than they actually were. These findings suggest our biases in reading dog emotions are even more complex than initially assumed. “In the United States alone, there are estimated 80 million dogs. We’re working hard to help people and their dogs have the best lives together,” Wynne said. Taking time to understand and meet dogs’ needs improves chances of raising secure, adaptable pets. Research like this could enhance animal welfare and aid efforts to rehabilitate aggressive, anxious, or stressed dogs. 12. What does the new research find? A. Longer bath time makes dogs feel unhappy. B. Owners can read dogs’ emotions accurately. C. Situations impact owners’ emotion judgments. D. Dogs show different feelings in different places. 13. How did researchers conduct the two experiments? A. By observing dogs in different environments. B. By comparing owners’ reports with video analysis. C. By introducing moods and evaluating dog videos. D. By surveying dog owners about their pets’ behavior. 14. What does the underlined word “rehabilitate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Appreciate. B. Avoid. C. Raise. D. Calm. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Dogs Show Clear Emotions B. Dogs Are Not Always Friendly C. How to Make Dogs Feel Happy D. Why We Misread Dogs’ Emotions 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。 Today marks the beginning of your journey. I want to talk about a painting that shows a journey we: Winslow Homer’s Old Mill, also known as The Morning Bell. What I love about this painting is its ambiguity (模糊) — it doesn’t give easy answers. ____16____ Some historical facts can help us understand it better. Homer painted it in 1871, a time when new technologies like electric power and the telephone were appearing. ____17____ It was a changeable age, when industries and ways of life transformed almost overnight.

We have humility, open-mindedness, and respect for each other’s dignity.

My mom knocked on the door. “Emma, Mrs. Thompson from down the street just called,” she said. “Her daughter Chloe is having a hard time with math. Could you help her out?” I thought about it for a moment. I was good at math, so I said yes. A few weeks later, I met Chloe for the first time. She was 10 years old and in 5th grade. I opened the math book and showed her some problems. “Let’s try these,” I said. Chloe looked away. “I don’t need this. I’m not going to college. I’ll work at my uncle’s restaurant.” I didn’t know what to say. In my family, everyone believed school was important. I kept telling her to try, but she just asked, “How is this going to help me cook or serve food?” That night, I thought about her question. Maybe she had a point. My brother works at a bank. I never saw him use science or math from school. The next morning, I told my mom, “I don’t think I can teach her. She doesn’t want to learn.” My mom smiled. “Maybe you need to try something different.” I had always learned by reading the book and doing exercises. But now I started thinking of new ideas. Over the next few weeks, I learned more about Chloe. Her parents wanted her to make money from a young age. She had been selling fruits and vegetables in the neighborhood since she was 8. One day, I asked Chloe to come to my house. When she arrived, she found me in the kitchen. I was holding flour and chocolate chips. She looked confused. I handed her an apron (围裙). 注意： 1．写作词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Grab the measuring cups and today we’re baking cookies,” I said. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As we baked, Chloe suddenly asked how to price our cookies. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★启用前 高三英语 0205G301 本试卷共12页，满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、班级和考号填写在答题卡上。 2．作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑;如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案。非选择题必须用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上;如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案;不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。答案不能答在试卷上。 3．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁，考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，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.

He was 31 years old and had a good life — a career, a partner, and a comfortable apartment. However, to review past life in a new perspective, he finally set off for India as his initial destination. The first few months were difficult. Andreas felt lonely, but later he understood it was something deeper. He admitted he was hungry for an adventure and wanted to chase some mountains and meet people, being independent and free. “I have built my identity from my job and the roles in my family. Then I let go of all of them, which is the hardest part of my journey,” he explains. When Andreas reached India, which was his original goal, he decided to keep going. He dreamed of cycling around the world. Over the next three years, he travelled through Asia, Australia, New Zealand, South America, and Africa. He crossed deserts in Australia and the Sahara, where temperatures reached 51℃. The wind and sand were terrible, and he often questioned his decision. But he also experienced moments of deep peace, especially in the Australian outback. One special moment happened when Andreas turned 33. His mother had died at that age, so this birthday was very emotional. He felt both sadness for his mother and gratitude for the amazing life he was living. This experience changed him. “I used to be career-focused,” he says. “Now my priorities are different.” After three years and eight months, Andreas finally returned home. He had cycled 55,000 kilometers across five continents and 50 countries. He looked like Robinson Crusoe with a long beard, but he was happy. Now Andreas has a new perspective on life. He no longer wants to sit in front of a screen all day. His adventure taught him to face his fears and appreciate simple things. Although the journey was physically and mentally challenging, it completely transformed him. As he says, “Change is a constant companion on the road.” 4. Why did Andreas decide to cycle to India originally? A. To find a new career. B. To reevaluate his life. C. To set a world record. D. To make a living abroad. 5. What troubled Andreas most during the first few months? A. The loneliness on the road. B. The uncertainty about his route. C. The physical tiredness from cycling. D. The feeling of losing his former self. 6. What occurred to Andreas after turning 33? A. He shifted away from his career-driven life. B. He missed his mother much more. C. He planned to cycle across more deserts. D. He wanted to write a book about his trip. 7. What message does the author want to convey through Andreas’s story? A. Face the changes in life bravely. B. Simplicity brings brief happiness. C. Family ties shape our life choices. D. See the world in a variety of ways. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了Andreas Graf离开舒适生活，骑行环游世界并实现自我转变的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“However, to review past life in a new perspective, he finally set off for India as his initial destination. (然而，为了从一个新的角度回顾过去的生活，他最终以印度为最初的目的地出发了。)”可知，他最初前往印度是为了重新审视人生。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“I have built my identity from my job and the roles in my family. Then I let go of all of them, which is the hardest part of my journey (我从我的工作和家庭角色中建立了自己的身份。然后我放下了所有这些，这是我旅程中最艰难的部分)”可知，最困扰他的是失去从前自我的感受。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“This experience changed him. “I used to be career-focused,” he says. “Now my priorities are different.” (这段经历改变了他。“我曾经专注于事业，”他说。“现在我的优先事项不同了。”)”可知，Andreas在33岁之后，改变了以事业为中心的生活状态。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据最后一段中“Although the journey was physically and mentally challenging, it completely transformed him. As he says, “Change is a constant companion on the road.” (尽管这段旅程在身体和精神上都很有挑战性，但它完全改变了他。正如他所说，“变化是旅途中永恒的伴侣。”)”可知，作者想通过Andreas的故事传达的信息是勇敢地面对生活中的变化。 C Although Shakespeare never used the words “ecology” or “environmentalism” in his plays, he was thinking about nature in ways that still matter today. He wrote during a time when early capitalism and global trade were changing how people viewed the natural world. His plays show that he understood nature’s limits and the dangers of trying to control it completely. One way Shakespeare shows ecological awareness is through weather. He lived during a period of unusual cooling, and his characters often complain about strange seasons. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Titania describes how the seasons have become mixed up — spring, summer and autumn no longer follow their normal patterns. Today, these words remind us of climate change and extreme weather. Shakespeare also witnessed environmental problems caused by population growth. As London expanded, demand for wood increased. Trees were cut down to build houses and theaters, and to fuel new industries like iron-making and glass production. This led to England’s first major deforestation crisis. When wood became too expensive, people turned to coal, which was cheaper but caused more pollution. Through Shakespeare’s eyes, we see the beginning of the shift to fossil fuels that has led to today’s climate crisis. At the same time, deforestation encouraged early efforts to protect nature. Some ancient trees were given names to save them from being cut down. New farming methods, mentioned in plays like As You Like It, helped improve soil health and food production. Shakespeare also noticed the overfishing of herrings and cod, which warns us about the need to protect ocean life today. Perhaps the most serious environmental threat in Shakespeare’s plays is war. The production of weapons required iron and gunpowder, which led to more deforestation and pollution. Government officials even took animal waste from farmers to make gunpowder, causing conflicts between environmental needs and military demands. Shakespeare shows us how economic growth, national power and environmental protection often come into conflict. His plays remind us that these problems are not new — and that we still face similar choices today. 8. Why is A Midsummer Night’s Dream mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To introduce a mythical character. B. To illustrate a historical climate event. C. To describe the patterns of the seasons. D. To show Shakespeare’s literary creativity. 9. Why did people turn to coal in Shakespeare’s time? A. It was cleaner. B. It was cheaper. C. It was easier to get. D. It was richer in energy. 10. What was Shakespeare’s attitude towards environmental problems? A. Concerned. B. Dismissive. C. Optimistic. D. Cautious. 11. What can we infer about environmental issues from Shakespeare’s plays? A. They have been ignored for centuries. B. They are more serious today than before. C. They are deeply rooted in human history. D. They are fictional in the early literary works. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了莎士比亚虽未使用生态相关词汇，但其作品暗含生态意识，反映气候异常、森林砍伐、过度捕捞及战争带来的环境问题，揭示发展与环保的矛盾自古存在。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“One way Shakespeare shows ecological awareness is through weather. He lived during a period of unusual cooling, and his characters often complain about strange seasons. In A Midsummer Night’s Dream, Titania describes how the seasons have become mixed up — spring, summer and autumn no longer follow their normal patterns. Today, these words remind us of climate change and extreme weather.( 莎士比亚展现生态意识的一种方式是通过天气描写。他生活在一个气候异常寒冷的时期，他的角色们常常抱怨奇怪的季节变化。在《仲夏夜之梦》中，泰提娅描述了季节变得混乱不堪——春天、夏天和秋天不再遵循正常的模式。如今，这些描述让我们联想到气候变化和极端天气。)”可推知，第二段中提到《仲夏夜之梦》是为说明一场历史性的气候事件提供例证。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When wood became too expensive, people turned to coal, which was cheaper but caused more pollution.( 当木材变得过于昂贵时，人们转而使用煤炭，虽然煤炭价格更低，但造成的污染却更多。)”可知，人们转向煤炭的直接原因是木材价格过高，而煤炭更便宜。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One way Shakespeare shows ecological awareness is through weather. He lived during a period of unusual cooling, and his characters often complain about strange seasons.( 莎士比亚展现生态意识的一种方式是通过天气描写。他生活在一个气候异常寒冷的时期，他的角色们常常抱怨奇怪的季节变化。)”、第三段中“Shakespeare also witnessed environmental problems caused by population growth. As London expanded, demand for wood increased. Trees were cut down to build houses and theaters, and to fuel new industries like iron-making and glass production.( 莎士比亚还目睹了人口增长所引发的环境问题。随着伦敦的扩张，木材的需求量增加。树木被砍伐用于建造房屋和剧院，以及为新的产业（如炼铁和玻璃制造）提供燃料。)”、第五段中“Perhaps the most serious environmental threat in Shakespeare’s plays is war. The production of weapons required iron and gunpowder, which led to more deforestation and pollution.( 在莎士比亚的戏剧中，最严重的环境威胁或许是战争。武器的生产需要铁和火药，这导致了更多的森林砍伐和污染。)”以及最后一段中“His plays remind us that these problems are not new — and that we still face similar choices today.( 他的戏剧提醒我们，这些问题并非新出现的——而且我们在今天仍面临着类似的抉择。)”可知，莎士比亚在作品中系统展现了当时的环境问题：气候异常、森林砍伐、化石燃料污染、过度捕捞、战争对环境的破坏等，最后提醒读者这些问题至今仍存在。这充分体现了他对环境问题的担忧态度。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Shakespeare shows us how economic growth, national power and environmental protection often come into conflict. His plays remind us that these problems are not new — and that we still face similar choices today.( 莎士比亚向我们展示了经济增长、国家实力与环境保护之间的冲突。他的戏剧提醒我们，这些问题并非新出现的——而且我们在今天仍面临着类似的抉择。)”可知，从莎士比亚的戏剧中，我们可以推断出环境问题并非现代产物，而是深深植根于人类历史之中。 D Dogs have been “man’s best friend” for thousands of years, which might seem long enough to understand them well. However, a new study from Arizona State University’s dog science lab suggests we may not be reading our dogs’ emotions as accurately as we believe. According to animal behavior researchers Holly Molinaro and Clive Wynne, our interpretation of dog feelings can be clouded by our own mood. Their earlier study this year revealed that owners’ viewpoints of dog emotions are often biased by circumstances. For instance, people tend to assume their dogs are happier at the park than during bath time, regardless of the actual cues (提示) their furry friends are giving off. “Even though people think they know what their dog is feeling, we found that they judge the dog’s emotions based on the situation,” Molinaro explained. Building on this, Molinaro and Wynne’s new study explores another influencing factor: the person’s own emotional state. They asked 300 university students to evaluate videos of dogs displaying objectively positive, neutral, or negative emotions. To eliminate environmental influence, the backgrounds were blacked out. In the first experiment, participants were primed (引导) into positive, neutral, or negative moods using images unrelated to animals — a method proven effective in psychology studies. While this priming influenced participants’ self-reported emotions, it surprisingly did not affect their opinions of the dogs’ emotional states. For the second experiment, the researchers created species-specific priming materials: images of dogs selected from the Open Affective Standardized Image Set. This successfully induced (诱发) moods, but produced puzzling results. Participants primed for positive emotions tended to rate dogs as sadder, while those in negative moods rated dogs as happier than they actually were. These findings suggest our biases in reading dog emotions are even more complex than initially assumed. “In the United States alone, there are estimated 80 million dogs. We’re working hard to help people and their dogs have the best lives together,” Wynne said. Taking time to understand and meet dogs’ needs improves chances of raising secure, adaptable pets. Research like this could enhance animal welfare and aid efforts to rehabilitate aggressive, anxious, or stressed dogs. 12. What does the new research find? A. Longer bath time makes dogs feel unhappy. B. Owners can read dogs’ emotions accurately. C. Situations impact owners’ emotion judgments. D. Dogs show different feelings in different places. 13. How did researchers conduct the two experiments? A. By observing dogs in different environments. B. By comparing owners’ reports with video analysis. C. By introducing moods and evaluating dog videos. D. By surveying dog owners about their pets’ behavior. 14. What does the underlined word “rehabilitate” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Appreciate. B. Avoid. C. Raise. D. Calm. 15. What can be the best title of the text? A. Dogs Show Clear Emotions B. Dogs Are Not Always Friendly C. How to Make Dogs Feel Happy D. Why We Misread Dogs’ Emotions 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍一项新研究发现人们常会误判狗狗的情绪，情境与自身情绪都会造成认知偏差，并阐述实验过程及研究意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Their earlier study this year revealed that owners’ viewpoints of dog emotions are often biased by circumstances.(今年他们的早期研究表明，主人对狗狗情绪的看法往往会受到环境的影响而产生偏差。)”可知，所处情境会影响主人对狗狗情绪的判断。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“They asked 300 university students to evaluate videos of dogs displaying objectively positive, neutral, or negative emotions.(他们让300名大学生观看并评估表现出积极、中性或消极情绪的狗狗视频。)”，第五段中的“In the first experiment, participants were primed (引导) into positive, neutral, or negative moods using images unrelated to animals — a method proven effective in psychology studies. (在第一个实验中，研究人员使用与动物无关的图像，将参与者引导至积极、中性或消极的情绪状态 —— 这种方法在心理学研究中已被证明是有效的。)”以及第六段“...This successfully induced moods(第二个实验也成功诱发了参与者不同情绪)”可知，研究人员通过先诱发参与者情绪、再让其评判狗狗视频的方式开展两次实验。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中的“Research like this could enhance animal welfare and aid efforts to rehabilitate aggressive, anxious, or stressed dogs.(这类研究能够提升动物福利，并助力rehabilitate具有攻击性、焦虑或精神紧张的狗狗。)”可知，此处指帮助平复、安抚有攻击性、焦虑和压力大的狗狗，因此，画线单词意为“安抚、平复”相近，与calm意思相近。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“However, a new study from Arizona State University’s dog science lab suggests we may not be reading our dogs’ emotions as accurately as we believe.(然而，亚利桑那州立大学狗狗科学实验室的一项新研究表明，我们或许并不像自己所想的那样能准确读懂狗狗的情绪。)”可知，文章围绕人们容易误判狗狗情绪的相关研究展开，介绍影响判断的因素与实验结论，所以“Why We Misread Dogs’ Emotions(我们为什么会误读狗的情绪)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 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。 Today marks the beginning of your journey.

Excited 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述两位香港留学生在兰开斯特大学萌生想法，创办中国新年庆典节日，介绍节日发展历程、活动内容、文化意义以及创办者对节日未来的期许。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：同样来自香港的乔希·梁和珀西·李七年前在兰开斯特大学求学。此处为句子的谓语动词，根据时间状语seven years ago可知，叙述过去发生的动作，用一般过去时，所以此处使用study的过去式studied。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：受到这座城市温情的感染，他们想要做出一些回馈。定冠词the后接名词作宾语，warm的名词形式为warmth意为“温情”。 【38题详解】 考查副词。句意：乔希说他记得自己一踏上这座城市就立刻爱上了它。此处修饰动词短语fall in love with，需用副词作状语，immediate的副词形式为immediately意为“立刻，马上”。 【39题详解】 考查介词。句意：怀着分享自身文化的决心，两人在2022年开始用数百盏传统灯笼装饰街道。此处为固定搭配decorate...with...，意为“用……装饰……”，所以此处为介词with。 【40题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：从那以后，这个节日发展十分迅速。此处为谓语动词，根据时间状语Since then可知，句子要用现在完成时，主语the festival为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为has grown。 【41题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：让这个节日与众不同的是它将所有人凝聚在一起，而不只是华人群体。空格处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事物内容，所以用连接代词what，位于句首，首字母需大写。 【42题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：受到良好反响的鼓舞，乔希和珀西计划明年把节日办得更好。固定搭配plan to do sth.，意为“计划做某事”，所以用动词不定式to make作宾语。 【43题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：对他们而言，看到人们脸上的笑容就是最好的回报。定冠词the后常接形容词最高级，good的最高级为best“最好的”。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：主办方希望更多人前来感受丰富的中国文化。此处特指中国特有的丰富文化，用定冠词the表特指。 【45题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他们对未来满怀期待，认为兰开斯特的这场庆典证明即便是小城市也能举办盛大的国际活动。此处为形容词短语作状语，形容人的感受用excited“激动的，兴奋的”，位于句首，首字母需大写。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 你校广播站拟开办新的英文栏目“Weekly News Overview”，请你写一篇英文广播稿来介绍该栏目。内容包括： 1.栏目介绍； 2.鼓励大家积极投稿。 注意： 1.写作词数应为80个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hello everyone, and welcome to our school radio station! ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Hello everyone, and welcome to our school radio station!

My mom knocked on the door. “Emma, Mrs. Thompson from down the street just called,” she said. “Her daughter Chloe is having a hard time with math. Could you help her out?” I thought about it for a moment. I was good at math, so I said yes. A few weeks later, I met Chloe for the first time. She was 10 years old and in 5th grade. I opened the math book and showed her some problems. “Let’s try these,” I said. Chloe looked away. “I don’t need this. I’m not going to college. I’ll work at my uncle’s restaurant.” I didn’t know what to say. In my family, everyone believed school was important. I kept telling her to try, but she just asked, “How is this going to help me cook or serve food?” That night, I thought about her question. Maybe she had a point. My brother works at a bank. I never saw him use science or math from school. The next morning, I told my mom, “I don’t think I can teach her. She doesn’t want to learn.” My mom smiled. “Maybe you need to try something different.” I had always learned by reading the book and doing exercises. But now I started thinking of new ideas. Over the next few weeks, I learned more about Chloe. Her parents wanted her to make money from a young age. She had been selling fruits and vegetables in the neighborhood since she was 8. One day, I asked Chloe to come to my house. When she arrived, she found me in the kitchen. I was holding flour and chocolate chips. She looked confused. I handed her an apron (围裙). 注意： 1．写作词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 “Grab the measuring cups and today we’re baking cookies,” I said. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As we baked, Chloe suddenly asked how to price our cookies. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: “Grab the measuring cups and today we’re baking cookies,” I said. Chloe put on the apron with a confused look and hesitated for a while before joining me. I told her we had to measure flour, sugar and chocolate chips precisely with tools. Every ingredient needed a fixed amount, and simple calculation was necessary all the time. I patiently guided her to count and weigh everything, explaining quietly how math worked in cooking. Slowly, Chloe stopped being unwilling and began to take it seriously. As we baked, Chloe suddenly asked how to price our cookies. I smiled and told her pricing needed math to count costs, calculate daily profits and set reasonable prices. We practiced addition, subtraction and division while talking about selling fruits and running a restaurant. Chloe was deeply attracted and realized math was really useful for her future life. She became willing to learn and even took the initiative to ask me to teach her more practical math knowledge later. 【解析】 【导语】本文以艾玛帮助克洛伊学习数学为线索展开，讲述了艾玛答应帮邻居汤普森夫人的女儿克洛伊补习数学，却因克洛伊认为数学无用而陷入困境，在妈妈的提醒下改变方法，结合克洛伊的经历，通过烘焙让她认识到数学的实用性，最终克洛伊主动愿意学习数学的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段写克洛伊疑惑地穿上围裙，艾玛引导她用工具精确测量食材，讲解数学在烘焙中的应用，克洛伊逐渐认真起来。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段写艾玛告诉她定价需要数学计算成本和利润，两人边练习加减乘除边讨论，克洛伊意识到数学的用处，主动要求学习更多数学知识。 2. 续写线索：提议烤饼干——测量食材——讲解数学应用——克洛伊认真参与——询问定价——讲解定价中的数学——克洛伊醒悟——主动学数学 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①指导：guide/direct/instruct ②计算：calculate/count 情绪类 ①疑惑：confused/puzzled ②不情愿的：unwilling/reluctant 【点睛】[高分句型1] I patiently guided her to count and weigh everything, explaining quietly how math worked in cooking.（运用了现在分词短语作状语以及how引导的宾语从句作explaining的宾语） [高分句型2] We practiced addition, subtraction and division while talking about selling fruits and running a restaurant.（运用了while引导时间状语从句的省略） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
