Slate’s Music Club gathered a group of critics to discuss the year music, the cultural trends that drove the musical spirit, as well as our favorite albums and singles. Let’s get to know our participants, all of whom joined the Slate’s Music Club. They are Julianne, Finzi, Lindsay, and Christ. Each of them has their own favorite albums in 2025. Getting Killed Finzi’s favorite album of the year is by a young New York band called Geese. Their album is called Getting Killed. It is probably one of the most exciting rock records you have heard in years. It is strange and interesting and compulsively listenable. Beautiful Place It is a really lovely combination of sort of deadpan spoken word poetry with exciting guitar sounds and all sorts of electronics going on. It is just kind of speaking to something in Lindsay’s heart about the overwhelm of the modern condition. Country Julianne’s favorite album is Cleo Reed’s Country. It is a really epic folk album about the state of work in the U.S. from the perspective of a hopeful black person living in New York. Her other album pick is Lido Pimienta’s La Belleza. It is a symphonic journey through Afro-Colombian rhythms with a Medellin Philharmonic. Debi Tirar Mas Fotos Christ’s favorite is Bad Bunny’s Debi Tirar Mas Fotos, which is emerging as the possible favorite at the Grammys, let alone the subject of a forthcoming Super Bowl halftime show. This album is the most-streamed in the world and has been ever since it came out in January. 1. Which album might be appealing to electronics-lovers? A. Beautiful Place. B. La Belleza. C. Country. D.

B In Southwest China’s Yunnan Province, Jia Ma, a woodblock art form in Han dynasty, is making a vibrant comeback. In the Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan, locals will stick Jia Ma on the door frames during the Spring Festival. The traditional Jia Ma designs come in over 600 patterns, used to pray for blessings for wealth, fertility, education, marriage, protection from evil, ancestor worship and more. There are also blessings for nature, homes, roads, family harmony and joyous as well as serious occasions. Deeply rooted in spiritual and cultural traditions, these vibrant artworks are categorized into three main themes: dragon totems (图腾), main gods and folk beliefs. No longer limited to temples or altars (祭坛), Jia Ma has found its way into the hands of young travelers who are eager to take home more than a typical souvenir. Today, the designs are being reimagined, integrating ancient symbols with a contemporary change. The artwork now speaks to ambitions, desires and intentions, turning a centuries-old tradition into dreams of the modern traveler. The once-serious symbols of fortune have evolved to include playful designs like the “God of Inspiration” and the “God of Easy Gains”, making it suitable for younger generations who are looking for modern-day magic. Tourists from around the world are also attracted to these updated cultural symbols. The Jia Ma fridge magnets — some bilingual, others with clever changes — have become a sought-after souvenir, turning up in the backpacks and suitcases of visitors who want to carry back a piece of this ancient province with them. In fact, many visitors to the region are finding that the most memorable experiences come not from the typical mass-produced gifts, but from local crafts that tell a story and remind them of the place. 4. What is the primary function of Jia Ma? A. Attracting tourists. B. Recording historical figures. C. Expressing hope for good things. D. Decorating homes during festivals. 5. Why does the author mention the “God of Easy Gains”? A. To prove the shift of public interest. B. To suggest the appearance of new gods. C. To show that Jia Ma now includes popular elements. D. To stress the connection between original and modern patterns. 6. What makes Jia Ma fridge magnets popular among tourists? A. They come in bilingual versions. B. They date back to the Han Dynasty. C. They are inexpensive and easy to carry. D. They combine personal travel experience and local culture. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Woodblock Art: Jia Ma in Han Dynasty. B. Jia Ma: An Old Tradition with a Modern Taste. C. Popular Souvenirs for Tourists in Yunnan Province. D. The Cultural Themes and Patterns of Traditional Jia Ma. C Social media are filled with clips of dogs howling (嚎叫) along to music, sparking a curious question: do dogs own genuine musicality (音感)? Psychologist Aniruddh Patel from Tufts University and his team carried out a new study to figure this out, and their findings confirm that some dogs can actually recognize pitch (音高) and adjust their voice in response to it. The study drew inspiration from the howling behavior of wild wolves. Wolves in a pack tend to howl in different tones, which creates the false impression of a larger group and helps turn away potential threats. Wolf biologists once thought that wolves actively adjust their pitch, yet testing this on wolves was experimentally challenging, leading the team to turn to house pet dogs for research. The researchers selected two ancient dog breeds, Samoyeds and Shiba Inus, which share closer genetic ties with wolves than modern breeds. They asked dog owners to record their pets howling to music in the original key, as well as versions changed three semitones (半音程) higher and lower. For statistical reliability, each dog had to produce at least 30 howls, each lasting 1 second or more, for every transposed version. The study results showed clear differences between the two breeds. All four Samoyeds tested were sensitive to pitch changes, consistently adapting their howls to the new musical keys, even though they could not match the pitch exactly. In contrast, the two Shiba Inus appeared completely tone-deaf, with Patel suggesting genetic changes within ancient breeds may account for such differences. This research also offers new insights into the origins of human music. It challenges the theory that human singing evolved from the fine motor control of speech, because dogs’ ability to control pitch without any vocal learning proves that language is not a necessary condition for pitch adjustment skills. 8. What is the main aim of Patel’s research? A. To study wolves’ howling habits. B. To test dogs’ recognition of music. C. To explain human speech evolution. D. To find dog-wolf genetic differences. 9. Researchers chose pet dogs to study because ________. A. biologists preferred pet dogs to wolves B. wolves always created false impressions C. experiments on wild wolves were beyond reach D. pet dogs had the same living habits as wild wolves 10. What was the key finding about the two ancient dog breeds? A. Samoyeds were born tone-deaf. B. Both breeds showed amazing musicality. C. Shiba Inus adjusted howls to new musical keys. D. Samoyeds sensed pitch and adapted accordingly. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Language is a must for pitch adjustment. B. The origins of human music are still unknown. C. Genetic changes make a difference to music evolution. D. Human singing and dogs’ musicality may share similar origins. D It’s 11 p.m. — some are fast asleep, while others are burning the midnight oil on their phones. An hour’s difference between going to bed at 10 p.m. versus 11 p.m. might seem insignificant, but it can make a world of difference to your health. Most people know this feeling from experience: turning in just one hour earlier can entirely improve your energy and mood the next day. A 2020 study published in the journal Sleep supports this, finding that spending less time on sleep at night leads to a worse mood the following day. The key reason lies in melatonin (褪黑素), the hormone that regulates our sleep-wake cycle. Its secretion (分泌) follows a light-dependent rhythm: levels stay low during the day and rise sharply around 10 p.m.. Going to bed at this time aligns perfectly with melatonin’s peak, maximizing its sleep-inducing effects and helping you fall asleep faster. Delaying bedtime means missing this optimal window. For those who are particularly sensitive, this can lead to the frustrating state of being too tired to actually sleep. A study from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University found that people who regularly go to bed between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on weekdays have the lowest risk of heart attacks. Specifically, the incidence rate was 5.1 percent for those who slept between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., 7.0 percent for 11 p.m. to midnight, and 9.2 percent for those who went to bed after midnight. People stay up late for many reasons; some out of choice, others due to work or responsibilities, and many struggle with insomnia (失眠). Quite often, people burn the midnight oil simply to carve out a little personal time. Instead of sacrificing sleep for this, try shifting that quiet time to the daytime — for example, taking a walk in a nearby park after work. For adults, seven to eight hours of sleep is recommended, with six hours as the absolute minimum. It’s also important to keep a consistent sleep and wake schedule, even on weekends, and avoid sleeping in too late. 12. Why is melatonin mentioned in the text? A. To introduce ways to deal with sleeping difficulties. B. To explain why 10 pm is an ideal bedtime for health. C. To show how to improve the quality of nighttime sleep. D. To tell readers the harm of sleeping too little every day. 13. What does the underlined word “aligns” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. Matches. B. Breaks. C. Avoids. D. Shows. 14. What can we learn about the study in paragraph 4? A. It was conducted by a world-famous medical journal. B. It suggests staying up late changes our sleep-wake cycle. C. It proves sleeping less leads to a worse mood the next day. D. It shows late bedtime is linked to higher heart attack risk. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Ways to improve people’s sleep quality in daily life. B. Reasons why many people have a habit of staying up late. C. The importance of going to bed at a proper time for health. D. A research on the connection between mood and sleep time. 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。 Protecting Traditional Culture: Practical Steps for Everyone The disappearance of traditional culture is a growing concern worldwide.

I passed children playing in the red dirt, worrying about their future. Would they end up like so many other children in this community who, without hope, gave up learning and drank alcohol? I gave a silent prayer for something better for their lives and mine. By the quiet lake with my guitar, I found my only comfort. Playing music helped me turn my sad memories into songs. I recalled my past days living in my homeland. Before I was forced to flee (逃离), I performed music professionally, wrote songs, and made appearances on Vand radio. I also worked in visual arts, painting, and creating crafts. I wasn’t a big famous artist, but I was on the way to becoming one. Now I found it difficult to adapt to this new life. I needed to find a way to pass the days doing something productive. Then, an idea struck me. I had no money for art supplies, so I began collecting empty plastic bottles from around the lake. I used them to build a small boat that could float. This piece of art, made from trash, was my gift to the lake that helped me. I received much praise and compliments. For the first time in months, I felt hopeful, confident, and productive again. Then, I remembered the faces of children playing in the dirt, who, I wanted to give the same feeling I had. That spark of hope led to the birth of “Art for Positive Change”. I taught young people in the community how to make art and useful things from old plastic bottles. They learned to channel their frustrations into creativity, their hands busy shaping art while cleaning their environment. Witnessing their transformation filled me with profound purpose. I expanded the program, establishing art and music classes for them. I believed art could help them grow, feel proud, and express themselves. It felt like a new beginning. Our songs, like “Our Youth Our Future”, even reached a big peace concert in the city. It was an incredible honor. However, as our program grew, so did the challenges. 注意：1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Some elders in the community began to question me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now, children from many countries come to our classes. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 云南师大附中2025～2026学年下学期期中考试试题 高一年级英语 注意事项： 1．答题前，考生务必用黑色碳素笔将自己的姓名、准考证号、考场号、座位号在答题卡上填写清楚。 2．每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。在试题卷上作答无效。 3．考试结束后，请将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

In the Dali Bai Autonomous Prefecture of Yunnan, locals will stick Jia Ma on the door frames during the Spring Festival. The traditional Jia Ma designs come in over 600 patterns, used to pray for blessings for wealth, fertility, education, marriage, protection from evil, ancestor worship and more. There are also blessings for nature, homes, roads, family harmony and joyous as well as serious occasions. Deeply rooted in spiritual and cultural traditions, these vibrant artworks are categorized into three main themes: dragon totems (图腾), main gods and folk beliefs. No longer limited to temples or altars (祭坛), Jia Ma has found its way into the hands of young travelers who are eager to take home more than a typical souvenir. Today, the designs are being reimagined, integrating ancient symbols with a contemporary change. The artwork now speaks to ambitions, desires and intentions, turning a centuries-old tradition into dreams of the modern traveler. The once-serious symbols of fortune have evolved to include playful designs like the “God of Inspiration” and the “God of Easy Gains”, making it suitable for younger generations who are looking for modern-day magic. Tourists from around the world are also attracted to these updated cultural symbols. The Jia Ma fridge magnets — some bilingual, others with clever changes — have become a sought-after souvenir, turning up in the backpacks and suitcases of visitors who want to carry back a piece of this ancient province with them. In fact, many visitors to the region are finding that the most memorable experiences come not from the typical mass-produced gifts, but from local crafts that tell a story and remind them of the place. 4. What is the primary function of Jia Ma? A. Attracting tourists. B. Recording historical figures. C. Expressing hope for good things. D. Decorating homes during festivals. 5. Why does the author mention the “God of Easy Gains”? A. To prove the shift of public interest. B. To suggest the appearance of new gods. C. To show that Jia Ma now includes popular elements. D. To stress the connection between original and modern patterns. 6. What makes Jia Ma fridge magnets popular among tourists? A. They come in bilingual versions. B. They date back to the Han Dynasty. C. They are inexpensive and easy to carry. D. They combine personal travel experience and local culture. 7. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Woodblock Art: Jia Ma in Han Dynasty. B. Jia Ma: An Old Tradition with a Modern Taste. C. Popular Souvenirs for Tourists in Yunnan Province. D. The Cultural Themes and Patterns of Traditional Jia Ma. 【答案】4. C 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了中国云南汉代木刻艺术甲马的复兴与创新发展。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The traditional Jia Ma designs come in over 600 patterns, used to pray for blessings for wealth, fertility, education, marriage, protection from evil, ancestor worship and more.(传统甲马纹样有600多种，用于祈福求财、求子嗣、求学、求姻缘、驱邪避凶、祭祖等。)”可知，甲马的主要功能是寄托美好事物的祈愿。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The once-serious symbols of fortune have evolved to include playful designs like the “God of Inspiration” and the “God of Easy Gains”, making it suitable for younger generations who are looking for modern-day magic.( 曾经寓意招财纳福、风格庄重的传统神像，如今衍生出灵感之神、躺赢之神这类趣味新潮的形象，恰好契合追求新式精神寄托的年轻一代。)”可知，作者提到“躺赢之神”是为了展示甲马融入流行元素。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The Jia Ma fridge magnets — some bilingual, others with clever changes — have become a sought-after souvenir, turning up in the backpacks and suitcases of visitors who want to carry back a piece of this ancient province with them.(甲马文创冰箱贴有的采用双语设计，还有些做了趣味创意改编，如今已然成为抢手的纪念品，频频出现在游客的背包与行李箱中，大家都想带走一份这份古韵省份的独特风物。)”和最后一段“In fact, many visitors to the region are finding that the most memorable experiences come not from the typical mass-produced gifts, but from local crafts that tell a story and remind them of the place.(事实上，许多来到此地的游客发现，最令人难忘的体验并非来自千篇一律的批量纪念品，而是那些承载故事、留存地域记忆的本地手工艺品。)”可知，结合个人旅行体验与本土文化是甲马冰箱贴受欢迎的原因。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开篇介绍传统甲马，接着讲述了纹样重新设计、融合当代风格，结尾讲甲马冰箱贴成为网红文创纪念品。文章主线是古老甲马结合现代元素重获新生，由此可知，B项“甲马：古韵传承，焕发现代新风”最贴合全文主旨。 C Social media are filled with clips of dogs howling (嚎叫) along to music, sparking a curious question: do dogs own genuine musicality (音感)? Psychologist Aniruddh Patel from Tufts University and his team carried out a new study to figure this out, and their findings confirm that some dogs can actually recognize pitch (音高) and adjust their voice in response to it. The study drew inspiration from the howling behavior of wild wolves. Wolves in a pack tend to howl in different tones, which creates the false impression of a larger group and helps turn away potential threats. Wolf biologists once thought that wolves actively adjust their pitch, yet testing this on wolves was experimentally challenging, leading the team to turn to house pet dogs for research. The researchers selected two ancient dog breeds, Samoyeds and Shiba Inus, which share closer genetic ties with wolves than modern breeds. They asked dog owners to record their pets howling to music in the original key, as well as versions changed three semitones (半音程) higher and lower. For statistical reliability, each dog had to produce at least 30 howls, each lasting 1 second or more, for every transposed version. The study results showed clear differences between the two breeds. All four Samoyeds tested were sensitive to pitch changes, consistently adapting their howls to the new musical keys, even though they could not match the pitch exactly. In contrast, the two Shiba Inus appeared completely tone-deaf, with Patel suggesting genetic changes within ancient breeds may account for such differences. This research also offers new insights into the origins of human music. It challenges the theory that human singing evolved from the fine motor control of speech, because dogs’ ability to control pitch without any vocal learning proves that language is not a necessary condition for pitch adjustment skills. 8. What is the main aim of Patel’s research? A. To study wolves’ howling habits. B. To test dogs’ recognition of music. C. To explain human speech evolution. D. To find dog-wolf genetic differences. 9. Researchers chose pet dogs to study because ________. A. biologists preferred pet dogs to wolves B. wolves always created false impressions C. experiments on wild wolves were beyond reach D. pet dogs had the same living habits as wild wolves 10. What was the key finding about the two ancient dog breeds? A. Samoyeds were born tone-deaf. B. Both breeds showed amazing musicality. C. Shiba Inus adjusted howls to new musical keys. D. Samoyeds sensed pitch and adapted accordingly. 11. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Language is a must for pitch adjustment. B. The origins of human music are still unknown. C. Genetic changes make a difference to music evolution. D. Human singing and dogs’ musicality may share similar origins. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了研究发现部分狗能识别音高并调整嚎叫，挑战了人类音乐起源于语言的理论。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Psychologist Aniruddh Patel from Tufts University and his team carried out a new study to figure this out, and their findings confirm that some dogs can actually recognize pitch and adjust their voice in response to it. (塔夫茨大学的心理学家Aniruddh Patel和他的团队进行了一项新研究来弄清楚这个问题，他们的发现证实了一些狗确实能够识别音高并相应地调整自己的声音。)”可知，Patel研究的主要目的是测试狗对音乐的识别能力。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Wolf biologists once thought that wolves actively adjust their pitch, yet testing this on wolves was experimentally challenging, leading the team to turn to house pet dogs for research. (狼生物学家曾认为狼会主动调整音高，但对狼进行这项实验在操作上具有挑战性，导致研究团队转向家养宠物狗进行研究。)”可知，研究人员选择宠物狗进行研究是因为对野生狼进行实验难以实现。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“All four Samoyeds tested were sensitive to pitch changes, consistently adapting their howls to the new musical keys, even though they could not match the pitch exactly. In contrast, the two Shiba Inus appeared completely tone-deaf, with Patel suggesting genetic changes within ancient breeds may account for such differences. (四只接受测试的萨摩耶犬都对音高变化很敏感，能持续调整自己的嚎叫来适应新的音乐调性，尽管它们无法完全匹配准确的音高。相比之下，那两只柴犬则显得完全五音不全，Patel认为，古代犬种内部的基因变化可能是造成这种差异的原因。)”可知，关于这两种古代犬种的关键发现是萨摩耶犬能够感知音高并做出相应调整。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This research also offers new insights into the origins of human music. It challenges the theory that human singing evolved from the fine motor control of speech, because dogs’ ability to control pitch without any vocal learning proves that language is not a necessary condition for pitch adjustment skills. (这项研究也为人类音乐的起源提供了新的见解。它挑战了“人类歌唱是从语言的精细运动控制演变而来”这一理论，因为狗在没有进行任何声音学习的情况下控制音高的能力证明，语言并不是音高调整技能的必要条件。)”可推知，作者暗示人类的歌唱能力与狗狗的乐感或许有着相似的起源。 D It’s 11 p.m. — some are fast asleep, while others are burning the midnight oil on their phones. An hour’s difference between going to bed at 10 p.m. versus 11 p.m. might seem insignificant, but it can make a world of difference to your health. Most people know this feeling from experience: turning in just one hour earlier can entirely improve your energy and mood the next day. A 2020 study published in the journal Sleep supports this, finding that spending less time on sleep at night leads to a worse mood the following day. The key reason lies in melatonin (褪黑素), the hormone that regulates our sleep-wake cycle. Its secretion (分泌) follows a light-dependent rhythm: levels stay low during the day and rise sharply around 10 p.m.. Going to bed at this time aligns perfectly with melatonin’s peak, maximizing its sleep-inducing effects and helping you fall asleep faster. Delaying bedtime means missing this optimal window. For those who are particularly sensitive, this can lead to the frustrating state of being too tired to actually sleep. A study from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University found that people who regularly go to bed between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on weekdays have the lowest risk of heart attacks. Specifically, the incidence rate was 5.1 percent for those who slept between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., 7.0 percent for 11 p.m. to midnight, and 9.2 percent for those who went to bed after midnight. People stay up late for many reasons; some out of choice, others due to work or responsibilities, and many struggle with insomnia (失眠). Quite often, people burn the midnight oil simply to carve out a little personal time. Instead of sacrificing sleep for this, try shifting that quiet time to the daytime — for example, taking a walk in a nearby park after work. For adults, seven to eight hours of sleep is recommended, with six hours as the absolute minimum. It’s also important to keep a consistent sleep and wake schedule, even on weekends, and avoid sleeping in too late. 12. Why is melatonin mentioned in the text? A. To introduce ways to deal with sleeping difficulties. B. To explain why 10 pm is an ideal bedtime for health. C. To show how to improve the quality of nighttime sleep. D. To tell readers the harm of sleeping too little every day. 13. What does the underlined word “aligns” probably mean in paragraph 3? A. Matches. B. Breaks. C. Avoids. D. Shows. 14. What can we learn about the study in paragraph 4? A. It was conducted by a world-famous medical journal. B. It suggests staying up late changes our sleep-wake cycle. C. It proves sleeping less leads to a worse mood the next day. D. It shows late bedtime is linked to higher heart attack risk. 15. What is the text mainly about? A. Ways to improve people’s sleep quality in daily life. B. Reasons why many people have a habit of staying up late. C. The importance of going to bed at a proper time for health. D. A research on the connection between mood and sleep time. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍晚上10点与11点睡觉的差异，阐述褪黑素的作用及相关研究，强调按时睡觉对健康的重要性并给出建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The key reason lies in melatonin (褪黑素), the hormone that regulates our sleep-wake cycle. Its secretion (分泌) follows a light-dependent rhythm: levels stay low during the day and rise sharply around 10 p. m.. Going to bed at this time aligns perfectly with melatonin’s peak, maximizing its sleep-inducing effects and helping you fall asleep faster.(关键原因在于褪黑素，这种激素调节我们的睡眠-觉醒周期。它的分泌遵循一种依赖光线的节律：白天水平保持较低，晚上10点左右急剧上升。此时睡觉与褪黑素的峰值完全一致，最大限度地发挥其诱导睡眠的作用，帮助你更快入睡)”可知，提到褪黑素是为了解释为什么晚上10点是健康的理想就寝时间。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Its secretion (分泌) follows a light-dependent rhythm: levels stay low during the day and rise sharply around 10 p.m.. Going to bed at this time aligns perfectly with melatonin’s peak, maximizing its sleep-inducing effects and helping you fall asleep faster.(它的分泌遵循一种依赖光线的节律：白天水平保持较低，晚上10点左右急剧上升。此时睡觉与褪黑素的峰值完全aligns，最大限度地发挥其诱导睡眠的作用，帮助你更快入睡)”可知，晚上10点睡觉能让褪黑素发挥最大作用，说明此时睡觉与褪黑素的峰值是契合的，由此推测aligns意为“匹配、契合”，与matches同义。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A study from the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi’an Jiaotong University found that people who regularly go to bed between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m. on weekdays have the lowest risk of heart attacks. Specifically, the incidence rate was 5.1 percent for those who slept between 10 p.m. and 11 p.m., 7.0 percent for 11 p.m. to midnight, and 9.2 percent for those who went to bed after midnight.(西安交通大学第一附属医院的一项研究发现，工作日经常在晚上10点到11点之间睡觉的人心脏病发作的风险最低。具体来说，晚上10点到11点睡觉的人发病率为5.1%，晚上11点到午夜睡觉的人发病率为7.0%，午夜后睡觉的人发病率为9.2%)”可知，这项研究表明晚睡与更高的心脏病发作风险有关。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，第一段“It’s 11 p. m. — some are fast asleep, while others are burning the midnight oil on their phones. An hour’s difference between going to bed at 10 p. m. versus 11 p. m. might seem insignificant, but it can make a world of difference to your health.(晚上11点——有些人已经熟睡，而另一些人则在手机上熬夜。晚上10点和11点睡觉之间的一个小时差异可能看起来微不足道，但它对你的健康会产生天壤之别)”点明核心，后文围绕晚睡的影响、褪黑素的作用、相关研究及睡眠建议展开，可知文章主要讲述按时睡觉对健康的重要性。 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。 Protecting Traditional Culture: Practical Steps for Everyone The disappearance of traditional culture is a growing concern worldwide.

I passed children playing in the red dirt, worrying about their future. Would they end up like so many other children in this community who, without hope, gave up learning and drank alcohol? I gave a silent prayer for something better for their lives and mine. By the quiet lake with my guitar, I found my only comfort. Playing music helped me turn my sad memories into songs. I recalled my past days living in my homeland. Before I was forced to flee (逃离), I performed music professionally, wrote songs, and made appearances on Vand radio. I also worked in visual arts, painting, and creating crafts. I wasn’t a big famous artist, but I was on the way to becoming one. Now I found it difficult to adapt to this new life. I needed to find a way to pass the days doing something productive. Then, an idea struck me. I had no money for art supplies, so I began collecting empty plastic bottles from around the lake. I used them to build a small boat that could float. This piece of art, made from trash, was my gift to the lake that helped me. I received much praise and compliments. For the first time in months, I felt hopeful, confident, and productive again. Then, I remembered the faces of children playing in the dirt, who, I wanted to give the same feeling I had. That spark of hope led to the birth of “Art for Positive Change”. I taught young people in the community how to make art and useful things from old plastic bottles. They learned to channel their frustrations into creativity, their hands busy shaping art while cleaning their environment. Witnessing their transformation filled me with profound purpose. I expanded the program, establishing art and music classes for them. I believed art could help them grow, feel proud, and express themselves. It felt like a new beginning. Our songs, like “Our Youth Our Future”, even reached a big peace concert in the city. It was an incredible honor. However, as our program grew, so did the challenges. 注意：1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Some elders in the community began to question me. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Now, children from many countries come to our classes. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】【参考范文】 Some elders in the community began to question me. One sharply asked why I filled children’s heads with art instead of survival skills, and another whispered I sought personal fame. My confidence shook. I invited the most doubtful to visit. They saw Samuel, once shy, confidently describing his sculpture, and noticed Maria weaving a basket while softly singing a song from home. The questioning elders fell silent. The doubt lifted — not by my words, but by the clear sense of purpose shining in the children’s faces. Now, children from many countries come to our classes. They first connect through shared creation, not words. My first plastic-bottle boat stands as a quiet teacher. The program’s true strength lies in the children’s own transformation. I am no longer just a teacher, but a listener, helper, and witness. Looking at the lake, I see a powerful picture of strength: a generation that lost its home is growing anew, by turning life into art, creating something beautiful and strong. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索。讲述了作者被迫流亡后生活艰难，曾是专业艺术从业者的他常在湖边借音乐慰藉自己。他捡拾湖边塑料废品创作艺术品，重拾希望与自信。随后他创办艺术公益项目，教当地孩子变废为宝、学习艺术和音乐。项目一度遭当地长者质疑，但孩子们的积极蜕变打消了非议，助力困境少年重塑自我、向阳成长。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以写项目一度遭当地长者质疑，但孩子们的积极蜕变打消了非议。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以写作者助力困境少年重塑自我、向阳成长。 2.续写线索：一些长辈开始质疑→信心顿时动摇→孩子们的积极蜕变打消了非议→许多国家的孩子们来到我们的课堂→助力困境少年重塑自我 3.词汇激活 行为类 注意到：noticed/ observed 在于：lie in / consist in 创造：create /build 情绪类 怀疑的：doubtful / skeptical 自信地：confidently / assuredly 【点睛】[高分句型1].
