A. agreed B. agree C. agreement D. agreeing
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:经过长时间的讨论,他们最终就项目预算达成了一致意见。空处作动词reached的宾语,需填名词,reach an agreement,表示“达成共识、达成协议”,为固定搭配 。

In this dialogue, “why” introduces a (an) ________.
A. subject complement B. relative adverb
C. object of preposition D. predicate nominative
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:—— 你知道她迟到的原因吗?——知道,是因为她的车在路上抛锚了。句中why引导定语从句,修饰先行词reason,在从句中作原因状语,why是关系副词。
4. There are many reasons for which people choose to live in big cities.
In this sentence, “for which” can be replaced by ________ without changing the meaning.
A. that B. when C. where D. why
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:人们选择住在大城市有很多原因。“for which people choose to live in big cities”是定语从句,修饰先行词reasons,for which在从句中作原因状语,所以可以用why替换for which。

A. on the day B. on the visit C. on the museum D. on the trip
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们参观博物馆的那天,是此次旅行中最难忘的日子之一。on which we visited the museum为限制性定语从句,先行词是the day,定语从句还原为we visited the museum on the day,把on the day换成关系代词on which,“on which”指的是on the day。
6. This is the house in which he lived for ten years.

A. This is the house where he lived for ten years.
B. This is the house that he lived for ten years.
C. This is the house when he lived for ten years.
D. This is the house whom he lived for ten years.
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这是他住了十年的那所房子。(如果我们用一个不同的关系副词改写这个句子,以下哪一项是正确的?)原句中用in which引导限制性定语从句,先行词是the house,表地点,故in which相当于关系副词where,因此改写为This is the house where he lived for ten years.。
7. The ________ of the project, which was supposed to be completed last month, has caused a lot of frustration among the team members. (delay推迟)
A. delay B. delaying C. delayed D. delays
【答案】A
【解析】
【详解】句意:这个本应在上个月完成的项目的推迟,在团队成员中引起了很多挫败感。空处位于定冠词The之后,作句子的主语,需用名词形式。A. delay推迟,可数名词单数;B. delaying动名词/现在分词;C. delayed过去式/过去分词/形容词;D. delays可数名词复数。根据后文has可知,主语为单数形式,且此处表示“本应上个月完工的项目延期”,用单数名词delay。

A. unattractive B. unattractively C. unattractiveness D. attract

【解析】

。

A. convincing B. convinces C. convinced D. convince

In another, a dolphin refuses to leave its polluted home, saying it has a duty to the sea.

Critics (批评家) have called his work “a gentle challenge to human-centered thinking”.
What can we infer about Hall from his stories?
A. He is hopeful about the future of wildlife.
B. He is interested animal behavior research.
C. He is worried about human-centered worldviews.

【答案】C

Yet he refuses to include well-known figures or exact dates.(从历史学家转行的小说家丹尼尔·摩尔创作以真实历史时刻为背景的小说。然而,他拒绝包含知名人物或确切日期)”以及第二段“Moore says that being too specific takes away the reader’s freedom to relate. His books end not with facts, but with questions.(摩尔说,过于具体会剥夺读者产生共鸣的自由。他的书不以事实结尾,而是以疑问结尾)”可知,摩尔不明确小说中的具体历史细节,目的是让读者有自由去联想、去反思,由此可推断他将历史视为个人反思的空间。

Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements? Or will they see the big word “fail” in red? The shadow of this mysterious (神秘的) institution steals away what success means to us.
My first step of redefining success began with course registrations. It is a well-known fact, especially in my school, that Junior year is the time of packing many AP classes into the schedule. When asked why they chose so many AP classes, my friends responded: “I don’t know.” They themselves don’t know why they are following the crowd and longing for the pressures of academic difficulty. Therefore, they do not feel the satisfaction of being academically challenged.
Completing many courses no longer brings out the feeling of success because more than four AP classes per year is a norm set by top universities. Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. The feeling of success was no longer attached to what grade I received but to the pure joy of learning.
Even my failures are attached to a feeling of success; after I take a step back and look at the big picture, I see them as a launching pad (平台) for my next big achievement. In the ninth grade, I went in for my first group interview for a leadership position as a shy girl. Not standing a chance against competitive applicants, I came out of the interview with an upset look. Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself.
This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little.
29. Throughout the Junior year, what was the author’s major concern?
A. Pressure from choosing AP classes. B. Performance in group interviews.
C. Competition with seniors. D. Recognition by colleges.
30. The author chose fewer AP classes because of _______.
A. her own understanding of success B. her desire for academic challenges
C. her strong urge to follow the crowd D. her dream of entering a top university
31. Which would best describe the author’s first group interview?
A. Dignifying. B. Rewarding. C. Engaging. D. Relaxing.
32. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Everyone is the maker of their own success.
B. Success favours those with a golden heart.
C. Success knocks at your door only once.
D. A college holds the key to success.
【答案】29. D 30. A 31. B 32. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者在高三时对大学申请和成功定义的反思,不再盲目追随他人选择大量AP课程,而是基于个人兴趣选课,并从失败的小组面试中学习,通过自我调整最终获得领导职位。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements? Or will they see the big word “fail” in red? (在整个高三期间,我和我的同学们一直担心,当大学将我们的整个人生故事浓缩成一篇200字的短文时,他们会看到什么。当他们回顾我们的成就时,脑海中会浮现出‘成功’这个金灿灿的词汇吗?还是会看到用红色标注的‘失败’这个醒目的大字?)”可知,作者在高三年级主要担心的是大学对他们的认可。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. (我决心追随自己对成功的直觉理解,只选择了两门我确信自己会喜欢的课程。)”可知,作者选择较少的AP课程是因为她自己对成功的理解。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself. (然而,这次面试并不是一次浪费的机会。我和一位高年级的申请者交谈,她回答问题的方式反映了她对自己的信心。)”以及最后一段中“This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little. (今年,我带着开放的心态和新的知识,再次走进集体面试的现场,告诉自己我就是那位自信满满的高年级学生。最终,我成功获得了一个领导职位。成功,就这样一点点地向我走来。)”可知,作者认为第一次面试是有收获的,因为它让作者从中学到了东西,并影响了她后来的面试表现。故选B。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第三段中“Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy.

In today’s world, the Internet has become an essential part of our daily life. It connects people from all over the globe, allowing us to communicate, share, and explore new ideas. Despite its demanding nature, this digital platform is rewarding for those who use it sensibly. In addition, the impact of the Internet on society cannot be ignored. It not only digitizes information but also transforms how we interact with each other.
One of the most significant advantages of the Internet is that it allows individuals to admit their thoughts and feelings without fear of judgment based on gender or any other identity. This sense of privacy encourages a deeper, more meaningful exchange of ideas. However, it is important to note that some interactions can be shallow and trivial, which is why it is crucial to use the Internet in a way that respects others and promotes positive communication.
The Internet also provides a vast array of software and tools that can help users create and customize their online presence. For example, one can download avatars and other digital representations to express themselves in a unique and creative way. These avatars, which are images that represent a user, can be a fun and engaging way to explore one’s identity and connect with others.
Moreover, the Internet has a profound impact on education. Students can access a wealth of resources and information, making learning more accessible and interactive. Teachers can use the Internet to enhance their lessons and provide students with a more engaging and dynamic educational experience. The ability to explore and learn in this way is truly a testament to the power of the Internet.
In conclusion, the Internet is a powerful tool that has transformed the way we live and interact. It is up to us to use it in a way that is both sensible and respectful. By doing so, we can ensure that the Internet remains a positive and enriching part of our lives.

It is up to us to use it in a way that is both sensible and respectful.(总之,互联网是一种强大的工具,彻底改变了我们的生活与交往方式。如何合理、友善地使用它,决定权在我们自己手中。)”可推知,作者对互联网社会影响的态度是互联网是强大工具,理智尊重使用就能发挥正向作用。

推理判断题。根据第二段“However, it is important to note that some interactions can be shallow and trivial, which is why it is crucial to use the Internet in a way that respects others and promotes positive communication.( 然而必须指出,网络上的部分交往流于肤浅、琐碎,这也是我们务必以尊重他人、倡导正向沟通的方式使用互联网的原因。)”和最后一段“It is up to us to use it in a way that is both sensible and respectful. By doing so, we can ensure that the Internet remains a positive and enriching part of our lives.( 如何合理、友善地使用它,决定权在我们自己手中。唯有如此,我们才能让互联网始终成为生活中积极有益、丰富精神世界的一部分。)”可知,文章先介绍互联网的作用、优势、对社交和教育的影响,最终呼吁人们理智、尊重地使用互联网,让它持续发挥积极作用。由此可知,作者写本文的目的是鼓励人们理智、尊重地使用互联网。

A Night at Sea
The storm hit suddenly as my father and I sailed back home in our small boat. One huge wave crashed over the side, knocking the engine out and filling the boat with water. We had no radio, no life raft, and only a small flashlight.
For hours, we drew water with a bucket, our hands shaking from the cold. I was terrified, but my father kept his voice calm. “We’ll get through this,” he said, even when the sky turned black and the wind howled.
As the sun rose, the storm died down. We were far from shore, floating in calm water. Just as I was about to give up hope, my father pointed to a dot on the horizon. It was a fishing boat. We waved our flashlight until they saw us. They pulled us aboard and gave us warm soup and dry clothes.
That day taught me that courage isn’t the absence of fear, but choosing to keep going even when you are afraid.
36. What caused the boat to lose power?
A. A large wave. B. A dead battery. C. A leaky bucket. D. A broken flashlight.
37. Why did the father keep talking to his son during the storm?

C. By shouting loudly. D. By waving a flashlight.
39. What is the main lesson of the story?
A. Always check your boat engine.
B. Fishing boats are always nearby.
C. Storms at sea are very dangerous.
D. Courage means continuing despite fear.
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. D 39. D

【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“One huge wave crashed over the side, knocking the engine out and filling the boat with water. (一个巨浪从侧面袭来,撞坏了发动机,使船里充满了水。)”可知,船失去动力是因为一个巨浪。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“I was terrified, but my father kept his voice calm. “We’ll get through this,” he said (我很害怕,但我父亲的声音很平静。“我们会挺过去的,”他说)”可知,父亲在暴风雨中一直和儿子说话是为了让儿子冷静下来。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“We waved our flashlight until they saw us. (我们挥舞着手电筒,直到他们看到我们。)”可知,他们是通过挥舞手电筒来引起渔船的注意的。

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Dear Tom,
I was shocked to hear about your narrow escape in the mountains last week! I’d like to share my own experience, hoping it can offer some comfort.
Once, I went hiking alone in a valley. Unexpectedly, a sudden flood came, blocking my way back. I was trapped on a small island in the river. What saved me was that I noticed a tall tree nearby which I could climb to stay safe. After the flood receded, I managed to get back. This taught me that staying calm and observing surroundings are crucial in emergencies.
For outdoor safety, I suggest you always check the weather forecast before setting out, which can help you avoid bad conditions. Also, make sure you have a map and a compass, and know how to use them, because getting lost is a common risk. What I believe is that preparation is the best protection.
I hope you’ll feel better soon and enjoy future outdoor trips safely!
Yours,
Li Hua

Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements? Or will they see the big word “fail” in red? The shadow of this mysterious (神秘的) institution steals away what success means to us.
My first step of redefining success began with course registrations. It is a well-known fact, especially in my school, that Junior year is the time of packing many AP classes into the schedule. When asked why they chose so many AP classes, my friends responded: “I don’t know.” They themselves don’t know why they are following the crowd and longing for the pressures of academic difficulty. Therefore, they do not feel the satisfaction of being academically challenged.
Completing many courses no longer brings out the feeling of success because more than four AP classes per year is a norm set by top universities. Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. The feeling of success was no longer attached to what grade I received but to the pure joy of learning.
Even my failures are attached to a feeling of success; after I take a step back and look at the big picture, I see them as a launching pad (平台) for my next big achievement. In the ninth grade, I went in for my first group interview for a leadership position as a shy girl. Not standing a chance against competitive applicants, I came out of the interview with an upset look. Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself.
This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little.
29. Throughout the Junior year, what was the author’s major concern?
A. Pressure from choosing AP classes. B. Performance in group interviews.
C. Competition with seniors. D. Recognition by colleges.
30. The author chose fewer AP classes because of _______.
A. her own understanding of success B. her desire for academic challenges
C. her strong urge to follow the crowd D. her dream of entering a top university
31. Which would best describe the author’s first group interview?
A. Dignifying. B. Rewarding. C. Engaging. D. Relaxing.
32. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Everyone is the maker of their own success.
B. Success favours those with a golden heart.
C. Success knocks at your door only once.
D. A college holds the key to success.
