To be true, airport parking isn’t the best option in this case since most US and Canadian airports offer travelers extremely high prices. Let’s take Toronto Pearson International Airport for example: Parking Type Daily Rate Express（only Terminal 1） $55.00 Daily （Terminals 1 & 3） $36.00 Preferred Park $38.00 Value Park Garage $29.00 Value Parking Lot $24.00 *The rates are 10% off for more than three days. Please refer to the official website. You see that even the cheapest option will cost you at least $24.00 per day. And that’s a true nightmare, especially if you know there is a great solution to such a problem. Moreover, don’t hope to find a free parking space quickly — usually, airport parking has limited availability, which means it’ll turn out to be a real challenge for you. Going back to a solution — off-site parking lots near the airports should be definitely your choice! And we’re happy to say that our smart booking platform, ParkingNearAirports. io, provides our customers with such services: ·Convenient locations ·A free speedy shuttle to and from airport terminals ·Wheelchair and mobility assistance ·Luggage assistance (tips charged accordingly) Be clever and never spend your entire budget on airport parking — better take a look at the prices above! So Park with ParkingNearAirports. io & Enjoy Convenience together with us! 1. How much does a traveller pay at least for parking at Terminal 1 for 5 days? A. $275. B. $180. C. $162. D. $120. 2. What service will people enjoy if they park with ParkingNearAirports. io? A. They will get to the airport terminal at a low cost. B. People with disabilities will receive special care. C. Someone will help them pick up baggage for free. D. Their cars will be parked in or close to the airport. 3. What is the function of the text? A. To inform. B. To educate. C. To entertain. D.

Yet occurrences of shortages and droughts (干旱) are causing famine and distress in some areas, and industrial and agricultural by-products are polluting water supplies. Since the world’s population is expected to double in the next 50 years, many experts think we are on the edge of a widespread water crisis. But that doesn’t have to be the outcome. Water shortages do not have to trouble the world — if we start valuing water more than we did in the past. Just as we began to appreciate petroleum more after the 1970s oil crises, today we must start looking at water from a fresh economic perspective. We can no longer afford to consider water a virtually free resource of which we can use as much as we like in any way we want. Instead, for all uses except the domestic demand of the poor, governments should price water to reflect its actual value. This means charging a fee for the water itself as well as for the supply costs. Governments should also protect this resource by providing water in more economically and environmentally sound (健康的) ways. For example, often the cheapest way to provide irrigation water in the dry tropics is through small-scale projects, such as gathering rainfall in depressions (凹地) and pumping it to nearby cropland. No matter what steps governments take to provide water more efficiently, they must change their institutional and legal approaches to water use. Rather than spread control among hundreds or even thousands of local, regional, and national agencies that watch various aspects of water use, countries should set up central authorities to coordinate (调整) water policy. 4. What is the real cause of the potentials water crisis. A. Only half of the world’s water can be used. B. The world population is increasing faster and faster. C. Half of the world’s water resources have been seriously polluted. D. Humanity has not placed enough value on water resources. 5. As is indicated in the passage, the water problem _________ . A. is already serious in certain parts of the world. B. has been exaggerated by some experts in the field C. poses a challenge to the technology of building reservoirs (水库) D. is underestimated by government organizations at different levels 6. According to the author, the water price should _______ . A. be reduced to the minimum B. stimulate domestic demand C. go with its real value D. take into account the occurrences of droughts 7. In order to raise the efficiency of the water supply, measures should be taken to ______ . A. guarantee full protection of the environment B. centralize the management of water resources C. increase the sense of responsibility of agencies at all levels D. encourage local and regional water resources 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。人类面临水危机，原因在于未重视水资源，应合理定价、优化供水方式并集中管理水资源。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Water shortages do not have to trouble the world — if we start valuing water more than we did in the past.(如果我们开始比过去更重视水资源，水资源短缺就不必困扰世界)”可知，潜在的水危机真正原因是人类过去没有给予水资源足够的重视。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段第二句“Yet occurrences of shortages and droughts (干旱) are causing famine and distress in some areas, and industrial and agricultural by-products are polluting water supplies.(然而，短缺和干旱的发生正在一些地区造成饥荒和困苦，工业和农业副产品正在污染水源)”可知，水资源问题在世界某些地区已经很严重了。故选A。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Instead, for all uses except the domestic demand of the poor, governments should price water to reflect its actual value.(相反，除了穷人的家庭用水需求外，对于所有其他用水，政府应该对水定价以反映其实际价值)”可知，作者认为水价应该与其实际价值相符。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段最后一句“Rather than spread control among hundreds or even thousands of local, regional, and national agencies that watch various aspects of water use, countries should set up central authorities to coordinate (调整) water policy.(与其在数百甚至数千个关注用水各个方面的地方、地区和国家机构之间分散控制权，各国应该设立中央机构来协调水政策)”可知，为了提高供水效率，应该采取措施集中管理水资源。故选B。 C What’s the truth of joy? I was obsessed with this question when I was young. However,ever since I started my own family, this quest has been buried under my workloads and daily chores. In 2008, Memorial Day weekend promised to deliver beautiful weather — not always the case at that time of year, so I decided to spend that Saturday shopping and do one big cleaning, starting with the garage. Our two-car garage, as always, was full of stuff. Boxes piled one on top of another, bikes crossed together. A garden hose (软水管) sat in a corner. We had to turn sideways when getting in and out. I planned to pull everything out on the driveway, hose down the entire garage, and after it was dry, put everything back more organized. With the morning moving along, the possibility to finish the cleaning within the day began to look less and less likely. I recalled how I had been feeling discontented lately while taking care of our stuff. Here was yet another time！Then my neighbor June, who was working in her yard, heard my sigh and said jokingly, “The joy of home ownership, huh? That’s why my daughter keeps telling me I don’t need to own all this stuff.” I don’t need to own all this stuff. As I turned to look at the fruits of my morning labor, I began to recognize the source of my feelings for the first time. It was piled up in my driveway. As I surveyed the pile I made, the answer to the obsolete (被遗忘的) question came to light: There is more joy to be found in possessing less than we can ever find possessing more. I ran inside the house and found my wife upstairs cleaning the bathtub. Still trying to catch my breath, tI said, “Kim, you’ll never guess what just happened. June said we don’t need to own all this stuff！” And in that moment, a minimalist family was born. 8. Which of the following best describes the to-be-cleaned garage? A. Spacious and well-lit. B. Neatly labeled and sorted. C. Disordered and jam-packed. D. Narrow and weather-beaten. 9. What can we infer about the author’s recent experience with stuff cleaning? A. He went through unaccountable frustration. B. He figured out his disinterest in cleaning. C. He initiated it and enjoyed the process. D. He lost patience and rushed to the end. 10. What did June imply by saying “The joy of home ownership, huh”? A. The pleasure of possessing a home. B. The significance of owning a family. C. The convenience of having a garage. D. The demands of maintaining a house. 11. Why did the author start a minimalist family? A. He favored living with a handful of people. B. He wanted to quit being a slave of stuff. C. He considered cleaning a waste of time. D. He figured out the joy of ownership. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者清理车库付出了很多努力，从中意识到拥有更少的东西比拥有更多的东西更快乐，于是决定做一个极简主义家庭。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Our two-car garage, as always, was full of stuff. Boxes piled one on top of another, bikes crossed together. A garden hose (软水管) sat in a corner. We had to turn sideways when getting in and out. I planned to pull everything out on the driveway, hose down the entire garage, and after it was dry, put everything back more organized.(我们的车库只有两辆车，和往常一样，堆满了东西。箱子一个叠一个，自行车交叉在一起。一根花园水管放在角落里。进出的时候我们不得不侧着身子走。我打算把车道上的所有东西都拿出来，用水管冲洗整个车库，等车库干了，再把所有东西放回去)”可推知，待清洁的车库混乱和拥挤。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“With the morning moving along, the possibility to finish the cleaning within the day began to look less and less likely. I recalled how I had been feeling discontented lately while taking care of our stuff.(随着时间的推移，在一天内完成清洁工作的可能性越来越小了。我回忆起最近在处理我们的东西时，我是如何感到不满的)”可推知，作者最近清理物品经历了难以解释的挫折。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据划线词后文“That’s why my daughter keeps telling me I don’t need to own all this stuff.(这就是为什么我女儿一直告诉我，我不需要拥有所有这些东西)”以及上文作者为了清理车库，维护房子付出了很大努力，可推知，琼说“拥有房子的快乐”意思是维护房子的需求。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“As I surveyed the pile I made, the answer to the obsolete (被遗忘的) question came to light: There is more joy to be found in possessing less than we can ever find possessing more.(当我审视自己堆成的那堆东西时，那个过时的问题的答案浮现了出来：拥有更少的东西比拥有更多的东西更快乐)”可推知，作者建立一个极简主义家庭是因为不想再做物质的奴隶了。故选B。 D When providing anesthesia (麻醉) during surgery, medical professionals must consider numerous factors. A crucially overlooked aspect is the percentage of body fat a patient possesses. Far from being inactive, body fat functions as a variable container that can change how anesthetic drugs spread and are processed, impacting both the surgical procedure and the patient’s recovery. Anesthetic drugs can be classified into two primary categories: fat-soluble drugs — those that tend to dissolve in fat — and water-soluble drugs, which dissolve more easily in water. For fat-soluble drugs, individuals with higher body fat encounter a distinct challenge. When anesthesia is first given, a significant portion of the drug gets trapped in their fat cells. This requires doctors to apply a higher initial dose (剂量) to ensure the patient enters a deep, pain-free state of unconsciousness. However, the drug stored in the fat then gradually reenters the bloodstream, like a delayed-release process, which may prolong the effects of the anesthesia and lead to problems like reduced breathing rate. By contrast, patients with minimal body fat face other risks: their limited fat fails to store fat-soluble drugs, letting them circulate freely in the bloodstream. If doctors rely merely on standard dose calculations based on body weight without considering low body fat, there is a risk of overdose, which can stress the body and cause serious issues. To address these challenges, anesthesiologists are increasingly prioritizing body composition assessments. They employ simple techniques, such as bioelectrical impedance (阻抗), which sends a gentle electrical signal through the body, to determine each patient’s physical makeup. With this information, doctors can customize drug dosages, enhancing the safety and effectiveness while promoting quicker recovery. Therefore, the role of body fat in anesthesia highlights the importance of individualized medical care. Understanding the unique characteristics of each patient’s body is essential for best treatment. 12. What happens to fat-soluble anesthetics in high-fat patients? A. They break down the fat cells. B. They work faster than in other patients. C. They are quickly removed from the body. D. They stay in fat and may cause problems later. 13. Why are low-fat patients at risk during anesthesia? A. They may receive too much anesthetic. B. They require a larger initial drug dose. C. Their body makes the drugs less effective. D. They have experienced severe weight loss. 14. How do doctors deal with the problem related to body fat and anesthesia? A. By promoting quicker recovery. B. By reducing drug dosages for all patients. C. By using a test to measure body fat proportion. D. By avoiding fat-soluble anesthetics entirely. 15. Which is the best title for the text? A. Anesthetic Dose Mistakes: A Clinical Analysis B. Body Fat’s Hidden Role in Anesthesia: Impact and Solution C. Body Fat Measurement in Anesthesia: Techniques and Benefits D. Anesthetic Risks in High-Fat and Low-Fat Patients: Causes and Effects 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要探讨了人体脂肪百分比在手术麻醉中的重要影响，包括脂肪对脂溶性麻醉药物的作用机制，不同体脂患者面临的风险，以及医生如何通过身体成分评估解决这些问题。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When anesthesia is first given, a significant portion of the drug gets trapped in their fat cells. This requires doctors to apply a higher initial dose (剂量) to ensure the patient enters a deep, pain-free state of unconsciousness. However, the drug stored in the fat then gradually reenters the bloodstream, like a delayed-release process, which may prolong the effects of the anesthesia and lead to problems like reduced breathing rate. (当首次给予麻醉剂时，很大一部分药物会被困在患者的脂肪细胞中。这就要求医生使用更高的初始剂量，以确保患者进入深度、无痛的无意识状态。然而，储存在脂肪中的药物随后会像缓释过程一样逐渐重新进入血液，这可能会延长麻醉效果，并导致呼吸频率降低等问题。)”可知，高脂患者体内的脂溶性麻醉药物会先储存在脂肪细胞中，随后逐渐释放到血液中，可能导致麻醉效果延长并引发后续问题。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“If doctors rely merely on standard dose calculations based on body weight without considering low body fat, there is a risk of overdose, which can stress the body and cause serious issues. (如果医生仅依赖基于体重的标准剂量计算，而不考虑低体脂的情况，就有可能出现用药过量的风险，这会给身体带来负担并引发严重问题。)”可知，低脂患者因脂肪储存药物能力有限，若医生仅按体重标准计算剂量，可能导致用药过量。故选A项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“To address these challenges, anesthesiologists are increasingly prioritizing body composition assessments. They employ simple techniques, such as bioelectrical impedance (阻抗), which sends a gentle electrical signal through the body, to determine each patient’s physical makeup. (为应对这些挑战，麻醉师们越来越重视身体成分评估。他们采用简单的技术（如生物电阻抗技术）——通过向人体发送温和的电信号来确定每位患者的身体组成。)”可知，医生通过身体成分评估，如生物电阻抗技术测量体脂比例，从而调整药物剂量。故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“When providing anesthesia (麻醉) during surgery, medical professionals must consider numerous factors. A crucially overlooked aspect is the percentage of body fat a patient possesses. (在手术中实施麻醉时，医疗专业人员必须考虑众多因素。其中一个常被严重忽视的方面是患者的体脂百分比。)”并结合全文内容可知，文章首段指出体脂在麻醉中的关键作用被忽视，中间段落分别阐述高脂和低脂患者面临的风险，最后介绍通过身体成分评估解决问题的方法，全文围绕体脂在麻醉中的影响及解决方案展开，B 项“体脂在麻醉中的隐藏作用：影响与解决方案”最能概括主旨，适合用作标题。故选B项。 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。 Brief and pleasant small talk can promote learning, expand your horizons, and contribute to a sense of belonging. ____16____ We asked experts to share their favorite strategies for getting better at small talk. Take advantage of “free information”. Find help from your surroundings, says Debra Fine, an expert on communication skills. If you’re standing next to someone at a baby shower, for example, the fact that you’re both there is what she calls “free information” — so ask the person how they know the mum-to-be. ____17____ Skip sensitive questions. Get rid of controversial topics and potentially sensitive matters (such as religion, relationship status, kids and work). ____18____ You might ask a high school senior to fill you in on their college search, for example, rather than inquiring if they will get into a famous college. Respond generously. Think of conversation as a game-and aim to be an active player, which requires investing energy in it. If someone asks how you are and you’ simply respond “Good”, you’re being a “lazy conversationalist”. ____19____ That gives the person you’re talking to plenty to work with if they’d like to continue to chat. Exit the chat gracefully. ____20____ Consider introducing the person to someone else, suggests Diane Windingland, and leaving time for them to know each other. Besides, Windingland recommends concluding like this: “Please excuse me, I have to talk to so-and-so.” A. Don’t spend too long on meaningless topics. B. You can maximize these benefits by mastering some techniques. C. Rather than a single-word response, offer a full sentence in return. D. Your shared reality is a terrific entry point for deeper conversation. E. Instead, questions like “What keeps you busy outside of work?” are suggested. F. Some conversations may drag on because people can’t figure out how to end them. G. One key to changing that is to first accept that these casual chats are impossible to avoid. 【答案】16. B 17. D 18.

Visually 44. and 45. has broken 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了动画电影《哪吒2》的内容和所取得的成功。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：动画电影《哪吒 2》于 2025 年 1 月 29 日上映，在电影行业取得了巨大成功。句中已有谓语动词 has become，故此处应用非谓语动词形式，The animated film Ne Zha 2 与 release 之间是被动关系，且动作已完成，所以用过去分词 released 作后置定语修饰 The animated film Ne Zha 2。故填released。 【37题详解】 考查冠词。句意：动画电影《哪吒 2》于 2025 年 1 月 29 日上映，在电影行业取得了巨大成功。success 在此处表示“成功的人或事”，是可数名词，此处表示泛指“一个巨大的成功”，应用不定冠词，major 是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词 a。故填a。 【38题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：该片由饺子（杨宇）执导，延续了哪吒和敖丙的故事，他们在“天劫”中幸存下来，但失去了肉身。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是 Ne Zha and Ao Bing，指人，且关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词 who 引导该从句。故填who。 【39题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：他们的灵魂被一位睿智的神仙太乙真人用神奇的七色宝莲所拯救。此处描述的是电影中的情节，应用一般现在时，主语Their souls与save之间是被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，主语是复数，be动词用are。故填are saved。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，他们的灵魂又开始消失，迫使太乙真人在克服重重挑战的同时重建他们的肉身。force sb. to do sth. 是固定短语，意为“迫使某人做某事”，所以此处应用动词不定式to rebuild作宾语补足语。故填to rebuild。 【41题详解】 考查名词。句意：这部电影展示了重要角色的成长：哪吒从一个叛逆的形象成长为一个深深关心朋友并了解真实自我的人，而敖丙则变成了一个勇敢的战士，宣称：“若前方无路，我就踏出一条路！”根据空处前的名词所有格 characters’可知，此处应用名词形式growth作showcases的宾语，growth 表示“成长”时是不可数名词。故填growth。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意：这部电影展示了重要角色的成长：哪吒从一个叛逆的形象成长为一个深深关心朋友并了解真实自我的人，而敖丙则变成了一个勇敢的战士，宣称：“若前方无路，我就踏出一条路！”evolve from... to... 是固定短语，意为 “从……演变成……”，所以此处应用介词 to。故填to。 【43题详解】 考查副词。句意：视觉上令人惊讶的是，这部电影有流动的熔岩、海怪和神奇的昆仑山等惊心动魄的场景。空处修饰形容词surprising，应用副词形式visually 状语，句首单词首字母需大写。故填Visually。 【44题详解】 考查连词。句意：除了动作场面，《哪吒 2》还传递了关于勇气、正义和友谊的有力信息，引起了各个年龄段观众的共鸣。句中bravery, justice和friendship是并列关系，应用连词and 连接。故填and。 【45题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：到目前为止，这部电影已经打破了票房纪录，自农历新年第一天首映以来就赢得了广泛赞誉，因其融合了文化元素、引人入胜的故事情节和鼓舞人心的主题而获得了 8.6 分（满分 10 分）的评分。根据时间状语 So far 可知，此处应用现在完成时，主语the film 单数，助动词用has，即has broken。故填has broken。 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 46. 假如你是李华，你校国际部将举办“国际美食文化节”(International Food Culture Festival)，现面向全校招募志愿者，教外国友人制作中国美食。请你写一封申请信，内容包括： 1.申请参加本次活动； 2.阐述对本次活动意义的理解； 3.准备教授何种菜品及个人优势。 注意：1.词数80左右；2.可适当增加细节，使内容充实，行文连贯。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Dear Sir/Madam.

His parents, both busy AI engineers, had to take an urgent business trip abroad for a month, leaving him alone at home. Knowing Liam struggled with loneliness and had been quiet since his best friend moved away, they surprised him with a small, human-like AI companion robot named Kiki before they left. Kiki was no ordinary robot. It had warm silver eyes, a soft voice, and could learn the user’s habits, emotions and hobbies quickly. Liam was unimpressed at first. He thought robots were just cold machines with programs, unable to understand real feelings. He ignored Kiki’s gentle greetings, refused to talk, and spent his days locked in his room, playing video games or staring out of the window. But Kiki never gave up. It made Liam’s favorite oatmeal for breakfast, tidied his messy desk, and left encouraging notes on his pillow every night. When it noticed Liam loved drawing but hadn’t picked up his sketchbook for weeks, it quietly placed the sketchbook and colored pencils on the living room table, along with a simple picture it had drawn. One rainy afternoon, Liam decided to go to the quiet old studio at the end of the community to draw. He rushed out in a hurry without noticing Kiki following him quietly with an umbrella. The wet floor inside made him slip and fall hard, hurting his right arm. He could not move and called for help anxiously, but no one could hear him in the heavy rain. Just then, the door opened and Kiki ran to him quickly. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Kiki came up to Liam at once, its eyes full of concern. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Safe and moved, Liam returned home with Kiki’s help. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Paragraph 1 Kiki came up to Liam at once, its eyes filled with concern. It gently helped him sit up, its soft mechanical hands carefully supporting his injured arm. Without a word, it unfolded the umbrella and protected him from the pouring rain. Then it slowly assisted him to stand and walked him home step by step. Liam bit his lip to hold back his tears, feeling a warm current spreading through his chest. This cold-looking machine, he realized, seemed to understand his pain better than anyone else. Paragraph 2 Safe and moved, Liam returned home with Kiki’s help. It fetched a first-aid kit and gently cleaned and bandaged his injured arm. Then it prepared a cup of warm milk and placed his favorite sketchbook beside him. “You draw beautifully,” it said in a soft voice. Liam broke down completely, hugging Kiki tightly in his arms. For the first time, he truly understood that kindness and care were not limited to humans, and Kiki had become his sincere friend, driving away his loneliness once and for all. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了16岁的Liam在父母出差期间，起初对AI机器人Kiki冷漠，但在一次意外受伤后，Kiki的关心和帮助让Liam感受到了温暖，最终两人成为朋友的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“Kiki立刻走到Liam身边，眼神中充满了关切”可知，第一段可描写Kiki帮助Liam站起来，并带他回家。 ②由第二段首句内容“在Kiki的帮助下，Liam安全且感动地回到了家”可知，第二段可描写Kiki照顾Liam，Liam被感动，意识到Kiki已成为他真诚的朋友。 2. 续写线索：Kiki帮助Liam站起来——带Liam回家——Kiki照顾Liam——Liam被感动——Liam意识到Kiki已成为他真诚的朋友 3. 词汇激活 行为类： ①保护：protect/safeguard ②理解：understand/comprehend ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类： ①痛苦：pain/misery ②善良：kindness/goodness 【点睛】【高分句型1】Liam broke down completely, hugging Kiki tightly in his arms.(运用了现在分词作状语) 【高分句型2】For the first time, he truly understood that kindness and care were not limited to humans, and Kiki had become his sincere friend, driving away his loneliness once and for all.(运用了that引导的宾语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度内江一中高二下期中考试卷 英语 考试时间：120分钟； 满分；150分 第I卷（选择题） 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.

To be true, airport parking isn’t the best option in this case since most US and Canadian airports offer travelers extremely high prices. Let’s take Toronto Pearson International Airport for example: Parking Type Daily Rate Express（only Terminal 1） $55.00 Daily （Terminals 1 & 3） $36.00 Preferred Park $38.00 Value Park Garage $29.00 Value Parking Lot $24.00 *The rates are 10% off for more than three days. Please refer to the official website. You see that even the cheapest option will cost you at least $24.00 per day. And that’s a true nightmare, especially if you know there is a great solution to such a problem. Moreover, don’t hope to find a free parking space quickly — usually, airport parking has limited availability, which means it’ll turn out to be a real challenge for you. Going back to a solution — off-site parking lots near the airports should be definitely your choice! And we’re happy to say that our smart booking platform, ParkingNearAirports. io, provides our customers with such services: ·Convenient locations ·A free speedy shuttle to and from airport terminals ·Wheelchair and mobility assistance ·Luggage assistance (tips charged accordingly) Be clever and never spend your entire budget on airport parking — better take a look at the prices above! So Park with ParkingNearAirports. io & Enjoy Convenience together with us! 1. How much does a traveller pay at least for parking at Terminal 1 for 5 days? A. $275. B. $180. C. $162. D. $120. 2. What service will people enjoy if they park with ParkingNearAirports. io? A. They will get to the airport terminal at a low cost. B. People with disabilities will receive special care. C. Someone will help them pick up baggage for free. D. Their cars will be parked in or close to the airport. 3. What is the function of the text? A. To inform. B. To educate. C. To entertain. D. To advertise. B Humanity uses a little less than half the water available worldwide. Yet occurrences of shortages and droughts (干旱) are causing famine and distress in some areas, and industrial and agricultural by-products are polluting water supplies. Since the world’s population is expected to double in the next 50 years, many experts think we are on the edge of a widespread water crisis. But that doesn’t have to be the outcome. Water shortages do not have to trouble the world — if we start valuing water more than we did in the past. Just as we began to appreciate petroleum more after the 1970s oil crises, today we must start looking at water from a fresh economic perspective. We can no longer afford to consider water a virtually free resource of which we can use as much as we like in any way we want. Instead, for all uses except the domestic demand of the poor, governments should price water to reflect its actual value. This means charging a fee for the water itself as well as for the supply costs. Governments should also protect this resource by providing water in more economically and environmentally sound (健康的) ways. For example, often the cheapest way to provide irrigation water in the dry tropics is through small-scale projects, such as gathering rainfall in depressions (凹地) and pumping it to nearby cropland. No matter what steps governments take to provide water more efficiently, they must change their institutional and legal approaches to water use. Rather than spread control among hundreds or even thousands of local, regional, and national agencies that watch various aspects of water use, countries should set up central authorities to coordinate (调整) water policy. 4. What is the real cause of the potentials water crisis. A. Only half of the world’s water can be used. B. The world population is increasing faster and faster. C. Half of the world’s water resources have been seriously polluted. D. Humanity has not placed enough value on water resources. 5. As is indicated in the passage, the water problem _________ . A. is already serious in certain parts of the world. B. has been exaggerated by some experts in the field C. poses a challenge to the technology of building reservoirs (水库) D. is underestimated by government organizations at different levels 6. According to the author, the water price should _______ . A. be reduced to the minimum B. stimulate domestic demand C. go with its real value D. take into account the occurrences of droughts 7. In order to raise the efficiency of the water supply, measures should be taken to ______ . A. guarantee full protection of the environment B. centralize the management of water resources C. increase the sense of responsibility of agencies at all levels D. encourage local and regional water resources C What’s the truth of joy? I was obsessed with this question when I was young. However,ever since I started my own family, this quest has been buried under my workloads and daily chores. In 2008, Memorial Day weekend promised to deliver beautiful weather — not always the case at that time of year, so I decided to spend that Saturday shopping and do one big cleaning, starting with the garage. Our two-car garage, as always, was full of stuff. Boxes piled one on top of another, bikes crossed together. A garden hose (软水管) sat in a corner. We had to turn sideways when getting in and out. I planned to pull everything out on the driveway, hose down the entire garage, and after it was dry, put everything back more organized. With the morning moving along, the possibility to finish the cleaning within the day began to look less and less likely. I recalled how I had been feeling discontented lately while taking care of our stuff. Here was yet another time！Then my neighbor June, who was working in her yard, heard my sigh and said jokingly, “The joy of home ownership, huh? That’s why my daughter keeps telling me I don’t need to own all this stuff.” I don’t need to own all this stuff. As I turned to look at the fruits of my morning labor, I began to recognize the source of my feelings for the first time. It was piled up in my driveway. As I surveyed the pile I made, the answer to the obsolete (被遗忘的) question came to light: There is more joy to be found in possessing less than we can ever find possessing more. I ran inside the house and found my wife upstairs cleaning the bathtub. Still trying to catch my breath, tI said, “Kim, you’ll never guess what just happened. June said we don’t need to own all this stuff！” And in that moment, a minimalist family was born. 8. Which of the following best describes the to-be-cleaned garage? A. Spacious and well-lit. B. Neatly labeled and sorted. C. Disordered and jam-packed. D. Narrow and weather-beaten. 9. What can we infer about the author’s recent experience with stuff cleaning? A. He went through unaccountable frustration. B. He figured out his disinterest in cleaning. C. He initiated it and enjoyed the process. D. He lost patience and rushed to the end. 10. What did June imply by saying “The joy of home ownership, huh”? A. The pleasure of possessing a home. B. The significance of owning a family. C. The convenience of having a garage. D. The demands of maintaining a house. 11. Why did the author start a minimalist family? A. He favored living with a handful of people. B. He wanted to quit being a slave of stuff. C. He considered cleaning a waste of time. D. He figured out the joy of ownership. D When providing anesthesia (麻醉) during surgery, medical professionals must consider numerous factors. A crucially overlooked aspect is the percentage of body fat a patient possesses. Far from being inactive, body fat functions as a variable container that can change how anesthetic drugs spread and are processed, impacting both the surgical procedure and the patient’s recovery. Anesthetic drugs can be classified into two primary categories: fat-soluble drugs — those that tend to dissolve in fat — and water-soluble drugs, which dissolve more easily in water. For fat-soluble drugs, individuals with higher body fat encounter a distinct challenge. When anesthesia is first given, a significant portion of the drug gets trapped in their fat cells. This requires doctors to apply a higher initial dose (剂量) to ensure the patient enters a deep, pain-free state of unconsciousness. However, the drug stored in the fat then gradually reenters the bloodstream, like a delayed-release process, which may prolong the effects of the anesthesia and lead to problems like reduced breathing rate. By contrast, patients with minimal body fat face other risks: their limited fat fails to store fat-soluble drugs, letting them circulate freely in the bloodstream. If doctors rely merely on standard dose calculations based on body weight without considering low body fat, there is a risk of overdose, which can stress the body and cause serious issues. To address these challenges, anesthesiologists are increasingly prioritizing body composition assessments. They employ simple techniques, such as bioelectrical impedance (阻抗), which sends a gentle electrical signal through the body, to determine each patient’s physical makeup. With this information, doctors can customize drug dosages, enhancing the safety and effectiveness while promoting quicker recovery. Therefore, the role of body fat in anesthesia highlights the importance of individualized medical care. Understanding the unique characteristics of each patient’s body is essential for best treatment. 12. What happens to fat-soluble anesthetics in high-fat patients? A. They break down the fat cells. B. They work faster than in other patients. C. They are quickly removed from the body. D. They stay in fat and may cause problems later. 13. Why are low-fat patients at risk during anesthesia? A.

Take advantage of “free information”. Find help from your surroundings, says Debra Fine, an expert on communication skills. If you’re standing next to someone at a baby shower, for example, the fact that you’re both there is what she calls “free information” — so ask the person how they know the mum-to-be. ____17____ Skip sensitive questions. Get rid of controversial topics and potentially sensitive matters (such as religion, relationship status, kids and work). ____18____ You might ask a high school senior to fill you in on their college search, for example, rather than inquiring if they will get into a famous college. Respond generously. Think of conversation as a game-and aim to be an active player, which requires investing energy in it. If someone asks how you are and you’ simply respond “Good”, you’re being a “lazy conversationalist”. ____19____ That gives the person you’re talking to plenty to work with if they’d like to continue to chat. Exit the chat gracefully. ____20____ Consider introducing the person to someone else, suggests Diane Windingland, and leaving time for them to know each other. Besides, Windingland recommends concluding like this: “Please excuse me, I have to talk to so-and-so.” A. Don’t spend too long on meaningless topics. B. You can maximize these benefits by mastering some techniques. C. Rather than a single-word response, offer a full sentence in return. D. Your shared reality is a terrific entry point for deeper conversation. E. Instead, questions like “What keeps you busy outside of work?” are suggested. F. Some conversations may drag on because people can’t figure out how to end them. G. One key to changing that is to first accept that these casual chats are impossible to avoid. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下列短文，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。 I worked for nine years at the most entertaining job in the world!

His parents, both busy AI engineers, had to take an urgent business trip abroad for a month, leaving him alone at home. Knowing Liam struggled with loneliness and had been quiet since his best friend moved away, they surprised him with a small, human-like AI companion robot named Kiki before they left. Kiki was no ordinary robot. It had warm silver eyes, a soft voice, and could learn the user’s habits, emotions and hobbies quickly. Liam was unimpressed at first. He thought robots were just cold machines with programs, unable to understand real feelings. He ignored Kiki’s gentle greetings, refused to talk, and spent his days locked in his room, playing video games or staring out of the window. But Kiki never gave up. It made Liam’s favorite oatmeal for breakfast, tidied his messy desk, and left encouraging notes on his pillow every night. When it noticed Liam loved drawing but hadn’t picked up his sketchbook for weeks, it quietly placed the sketchbook and colored pencils on the living room table, along with a simple picture it had drawn. One rainy afternoon, Liam decided to go to the quiet old studio at the end of the community to draw. He rushed out in a hurry without noticing Kiki following him quietly with an umbrella. The wet floor inside made him slip and fall hard, hurting his right arm. He could not move and called for help anxiously, but no one could hear him in the heavy rain. Just then, the door opened and Kiki ran to him quickly. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 Kiki came up to Liam at once, its eyes full of concern. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Safe and moved, Liam returned home with Kiki’s help. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
