In fact, at the age of twenty, he left college to pursue snow-covered dreams, working at Mountain Creek in New Jersey and eventually counseling at Woodward Copper, one of North America’s premier extreme sports camps. There, surrounded by young athletes pushing their limits, he discovered a passion for mentorship. “That’s where I recognized a second calling,” he reflects. “My ability to connect to the youth and positively influence them through failure and growth.” Those years on the slopes taught him that every fall is a lesson, and every comeback builds character. After earning a Master’s degree, Koch now teaches second grade at Sussex Avenue School in Newark. In the classroom, he brings the same fearless energy that once propelled him to attempt new tricks on the slopes. “In extreme sports, you can fall a thousand times and land once — and the world will still remember you as the first,” he says. “I take that mentality and use it to teach every day.” His students, many of whom face challenges outside school, find in him a teacher who celebrates effort and resilience as much as correct answers. Koch’s teaching approach is explorative, mindful, exciting, forgiving, and energetic. Whether he is shaking up math lessons with movement or planning hands-on science projects like building volcanoes, he is committed to keeping instruction fresh and engaging. He believes that a classroom should feel like a safe playground for ideas, where mistakes are stepping stones, not dead ends. As part of his victory in the “America’s Favorite Teacher” competition, Sussex Avenue School received a special visit from Bill Nye, the Science Guy, who led an assembly on space — a moment Koch described as “completely surreal.” His $25,000 prize can’t come at a better time, which will fuel Koch’s plan to launch a snowboarding club for his students. “I want to take Hoods to Woods and SHRED Foundation as a model, two non-profit organizations that take underprivileged children from Brooklyn and Albany and introduce them to snowboarding and the wilderness,” he explains. For Koch, the mountain is just another classroom — one where fear fades and confidence grows. He and his fiancée, Elise, live in Montclair with their pets, Punky and Polly. 4. Why did Koch change his career? A. Because he wanted to push his personal limit. B. Because he desired to pursue his Master’s degree. C. Because he received the call inviting him to teach. D. Because he found his potential to relate to young people. 5. What can be inferred about Jonathan Koch’s teaching philosophy? A. Failure is a significant part of learning. B. Students should avoid mistakes in a novel way. C. Classroom should be made safe for snowboarding. D. Math lessons are replaced with hands-on activities. 6. What does Koch plan to do with his $25,000 prize? A. Build a classroom in the mountain. B. Donate to the two non-profit organizations. C. Start a new club for students to learn snowboarding. D. Pay for the special Bill Nye’s visit to Sussex Avenue School. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Key to Success: Follow Your Heart B. From Snowboarding to Teaching: A Fearless Educator C. America’s Favorite Teacher: Every Teacher’s Dream Award D. From Classroom to Mountain: An Innovative Teaching Method C The beneficial relationship between dogs and humans goes far beyond companionship. Dogs have been part of human society for over 20,000 years. While they initially aided hunters, they soon became household members. Although companion dogs don’t help secure food, mounting evidence suggests they help reduce anxiety and improve social skills. Recent research led by Dr. Kikusui Takefumi at Azabu University, published in iScience, longs to explore the underlying mechanism. It reveals that the microbes (微生物) in the gut (肠道) of dog owners differ significantly from those of non-owners, which at least partially explains the behavioral differences. The brain does not operate in isolation. Microbes elsewhere in the body, particularly in the gut, produce compounds that influence brain function. These microbes are shaped by diet, stress, pollutants, and exercise. Knowing from prior work that dog ownership affects the human gut microbes, Dr. Kikusui wondered whether that microbe transfer from dogs might bring psychological benefits. To test this, he conducted an experiment with 343 participants in Tokyo. The study focused specifically on teenagers, as adolescence is a crucial period for brain development where social interactions have lasting mental effects. Psychological analysis of 96 dog-owning teens and 247 non-owning teens showed, as expected, that dog owners had fewer social problems. More particularly, they exhibited less aggressive and problematic behavior. Saliva (唾液) samples revealed that certain strains (菌株) were more plentiful in dog owners. Further analysis linked lower levels of these key stains to more problematic behaviors, suggesting that microbes introduced by dogs may healthily influence their owners’ brains. The ideal next step — introducing dog microbes into non-owning teens. Given that it is an ethically grey area, he worked instead with mice. He cultured microbe samples from both teen groups and fed them to 24 mice. After six weeks, mice social tests measured how long they sniffed unfamiliar mice. Remarkably, mice with dog-owner microbes sniffed unfamiliar mice for up to 14 seconds, versus six seconds for the others. Dr. Kikusui admits direct comparisons between mouse and human behavior are not ideal, but his findings nevertheless indicate that microbial changes from dog ownership influence the brain. If true, the path to a healthier mind might begin not with self-reflection, but with a gentle petting and a few affectionate licks. 8. What is the main purpose of Dr. Kikusui’s study? A. To suggest that dogs can help reduce anxiety. B. To explore the key factor for brain development. C. To clarify the various microbes in dog-owners’ guts. D. To figure out why dog owners possess better social skills. 9. According to prior work, what did Dr. Kikusui assume before the experiment? A. Dog ownership has an effect on the human gut microbes. B. Microbes from dogs might psychologically benefit humans. C. Diet, exercise and stress are the factors to influence the microbes. D. Teenagers may transfer certain strains from their social interaction. 10. Why did Dr. Kikusui’s study focus on teenagers? A. Because they have more social problems. B. Because they are more likely to own dogs than adults. C. Because saliva samples are easier to collect from teens. D. Because social interactions will affect teens’ development. 11. What can we learn about the mouse experiment? A. It acted as an alternative when human testing wasn’t allowed. B. It successfully dismissed the doubts about Dr. Kikusui’s research. C. It was ideal because it was easy to introduce dog microbes to mice. D. It directly proved the comparisons between mouse and human behavior. D Last year, my colleagues and I published a series of articles documenting China’s stunning rise in clean energy, and how America has fallen behind in adopting the low-carbon technologies like solar power and electric vehicles. We visited jaw-dropping Chinese solar farms, one of them covering about 420 square kilometers. We wrote about thousands of miles of ultra-high-voltage transmission (超高压输电) lines being built across the country. We analyzed how China is reshaping economies from South Africa to Brazil by exporting cheap solar panels and EVs. We tracked its rapid progress in emerging fields: nuclear fusion, autonomous driving, rare earth metals. This week, state media reported researchers developed a lithium battery that maintains its charge in very low temperatures. Clean energy technologies — including solar and EVs — contributed to more than a third of China’s economic growth last year, generating about $2.1 trillion in economic activity, according to an analysis by Carbon Brief. As the U.S. doubles down on domestic fossil fuels, China continues to expand its global influence. “China’s high-speed rail, ultra-modern subways, and growing fleet of self-driving EVs often make me feel like I’m living in the future,” said Keith Bradsher, my Times colleague who has been based in China for more than two decades. The efficiency of China’s infrastructure rewires how people perceive time and distance. Unlike America’s grid (电网),which is split by state borders and struggles to move power across regions—Texas wind rarely reaches New York. China’s ultra-high-voltage lines carry clean energy from remote deserts to massive coastal factories in hours. This perfect integration is a key reason China leads the world in green tech adoption. From affordable EVs to AI-powered services, China is not just catching up — it’s setting the pace. For many visitors, the contrast with the U.S., trapped in political deadlock over climate and infrastructure, is distinct. Living in China today is less about catching up to the future and more about living in it. 12. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The author’s hard work to document in China. B. Recent stunning breakthroughs in lithium batteries. C. Discontent with America’s low-carbon technologies. D. China’s rise in clean energy and cutting-edge fields. 13. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 most likely mean? A. Keeps records of. B. Complains about. C. Commits heavily to. D. Reduces investment in. 14. What makes China lead globally in green tech adoption? A. Its grid that is more split by regional borders. B. Its great struggle to integrate green technologies. C. Its efficient cross-regional clean energy transmission. D. Its solution to deadlock over climate and infrastructure. 15. What could be the intention of writing the passage? A. To present the work of USA journalists. B. To appreciate China’s energy transition. C. To put blame on the energy policies of America. D. To compare different countries’ low-carbon technologies. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Kind, selfless people sometimes don’t realize they are allowing others to disrespect them. Simple actions like unnecessary apologies or weak boundaries can lead you to abandon your own comfort and sense of self. If you often feel taken advantage of or treated unfairly, it’s time to pause and reflect on your role. ____16____ You don’t enforce your boundaries. Setting boundaries is easier than enforcing them. ____17____ Nonetheless, do you hold people accountable when they cross the line? If not, you’re teaching them they can push without consequences. You don’t voice your discomfort. Expressing discomfort can be hard, especially with someone who downplays your feelings. For instance, you and your deskmate are close friends. However, you’ve mentioned before that you feel uncomfortable when others read your private notes without asking. Yet recently, you’ve noticed them flipping through your notebook casually several times. Your unease grows, but you stay silent, fearing conflict. ____18____ You apologize too much. ____19____ By all means, this is an admirable deed. Yet over-apologizing or saying sorry without reason can make you an emotional doormat. Do you often apologize for things you didn’t do wrong? Is “I’m sorry” a catchphrase? This common habit invites disrespect when you let others — or yourself — take blame for their mistakes. ____20____ This is unnoticeable and dangerous. If you compromise or justify your boundaries to make others happy, you disrespect yourself — and encourage others to do the same. Without standing by your values, you can lose yourself and invite disrespect into your life. Your values matter, even if not universally shared. A. You share the values with others. B. You abandon your values for others. C. Chances are you have stated them many times. D. You tend to step up and take responsibility habitually. E. Your bottling up the feelings actually can damage relationships. F. However, you can adopt the four tips to help you win the respect. G. After all, you may be teaching people to disrespect you in four ways. 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） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 At the start of my first lesson in Chinese calligraphy, my teacher told me to write my name, After I put it down, he said, plainly, “Now I will teach you how to make it beautiful.” My heart skipped a beat, a sense of ____21____ overwhelming me.

It felt like a way to abandon the Singapore’s high-pressure education that ____26____ me in early years, and with it, perhaps, part of my ____27____. I felt the need to present myself in a way that Americans would accept. I ____28____ an American accent and set aside my Chinese name. Ultimately, after 14 years of ____29____ separation and painful self-loss in the States, I decided to learn calligraphy. “Why not reconnect with my heritage?” I thought. In calligraphy, the principle is to copy the ____30____ calligraphers’ techniques, thus enhancing your own. Every week, my teacher would ____31____ my writing. “It is neat, but you need to be braver,” he once observed. “Your challenge is in producing a bold stroke.” For years, I had prided myself on ____32____ an image of integration and confidence, despite deep ____33____, but my writing betrayed me. I have been learning calligraphy to try to get in touch with my cultural roots, but what I am really ____34____ was a return to myself. That first lesson came with the terrific promise that what had been ____35____ in myself could be made beautiful — and that I could be the one to do that work. 21.

I sat in my seat, fingers tapping nervously on the desk — group work had never been my favorite, especially the behind-the-scene stuff. My partner, Lily, sat beside me. Her round eyes sparkled with enthusiasm, and she turned to me, and said gently, “What if we divide the work? I can collect cultural materials and design the PPT. You’re good at public speaking — maybe you can take charge of the speech part?” “Sure, that sounds great!” I replied, my heart already plotting to avoid the hard work. For the next week, I was always “busy” — chatting with classmates during breaks, playing games after class, and ignoring Lily’s repeated attempts to discuss the project. One afternoon, Lily gathered her courage, “Um… I can’t find enough information about ancient Egyptian culture. Can you help me search some materials online?” she whispered, her voice trembling slightly. I rolled my eyes, slamming my laptop shut with a loud bang. “I’m busy with the math test review! Just figure it out yourself — you’re always so careful, you’ll do it fine!” I grinned, walking away without glancing back. Lily froze, her shoulders sank. I never gave it a second thought, dashing to the playground to play basketball with Tom, a basketball lover who cared about nothing but playing basketball. I thought I was being “smart” — letting the diligent Lily do all the work, while I got the rewards with a single speech. What I didn’t know was that fate was about to teach me a bitter lesson. 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。 The next day, our teacher rearranged the groups for some reason, Tom pairing with me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing me sitting alone, desperate and helpless, Lily approached. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025—2026学年度下学期期中考试高一年级英语科试卷 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话仅读两遍。 1.

In fact, at the age of twenty, he left college to pursue snow-covered dreams, working at Mountain Creek in New Jersey and eventually counseling at Woodward Copper, one of North America’s premier extreme sports camps. There, surrounded by young athletes pushing their limits, he discovered a passion for mentorship. “That’s where I recognized a second calling,” he reflects. “My ability to connect to the youth and positively influence them through failure and growth.” Those years on the slopes taught him that every fall is a lesson, and every comeback builds character. After earning a Master’s degree, Koch now teaches second grade at Sussex Avenue School in Newark. In the classroom, he brings the same fearless energy that once propelled him to attempt new tricks on the slopes. “In extreme sports, you can fall a thousand times and land once — and the world will still remember you as the first,” he says. “I take that mentality and use it to teach every day.” His students, many of whom face challenges outside school, find in him a teacher who celebrates effort and resilience as much as correct answers. Koch’s teaching approach is explorative, mindful, exciting, forgiving, and energetic. Whether he is shaking up math lessons with movement or planning hands-on science projects like building volcanoes, he is committed to keeping instruction fresh and engaging. He believes that a classroom should feel like a safe playground for ideas, where mistakes are stepping stones, not dead ends. As part of his victory in the “America’s Favorite Teacher” competition, Sussex Avenue School received a special visit from Bill Nye, the Science Guy, who led an assembly on space — a moment Koch described as “completely surreal.” His $25,000 prize can’t come at a better time, which will fuel Koch’s plan to launch a snowboarding club for his students. “I want to take Hoods to Woods and SHRED Foundation as a model, two non-profit organizations that take underprivileged children from Brooklyn and Albany and introduce them to snowboarding and the wilderness,” he explains. For Koch, the mountain is just another classroom — one where fear fades and confidence grows. He and his fiancée, Elise, live in Montclair with their pets, Punky and Polly. 4. Why did Koch change his career? A. Because he wanted to push his personal limit. B. Because he desired to pursue his Master’s degree. C. Because he received the call inviting him to teach. D. Because he found his potential to relate to young people. 5. What can be inferred about Jonathan Koch’s teaching philosophy? A. Failure is a significant part of learning. B. Students should avoid mistakes in a novel way. C. Classroom should be made safe for snowboarding. D. Math lessons are replaced with hands-on activities. 6. What does Koch plan to do with his $25,000 prize? A. Build a classroom in the mountain. B. Donate to the two non-profit organizations. C. Start a new club for students to learn snowboarding. D. Pay for the special Bill Nye’s visit to Sussex Avenue School. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Key to Success: Follow Your Heart B. From Snowboarding to Teaching: A Fearless Educator C. America’s Favorite Teacher: Every Teacher’s Dream Award D. From Classroom to Mountain: An Innovative Teaching Method 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述乔纳森·科赫的职业转变历程。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““That’s where I recognized a second calling,” he reflects. “My ability to connect to the youth and positively influence them through failure and growth.””(“就是在那里我意识到了自己的第二个使命，”他回忆道，“我发现自己有能力与年轻人建立联系，并通过失败和成长对他们产生积极影响”)”可知，科赫改变职业是因为他发现了自己与年轻人相处并影响他们的潜力。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Those years on the slopes taught him that every fall is a lesson, and every comeback builds character. (在雪坡上的那些年让他明白，每一次摔倒都是一次教训，每一次重新站起来都能塑造品格)”以及第三段“He believes that a classroom should feel like a safe playground for ideas, where mistakes are stepping stones, not dead ends. (他认为教室应该是一个安全的思想游乐场，在那里错误是垫脚石，而不是终点。)”可知，乔纳森·科赫的教学理念是失败是学习的重要部分。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“His $25,000 prize can’t come at a better time, which will fuel Koch’s plan to launch a snowboarding club for his students. (他获得的25000美元奖金来得正是时候，这笔钱将助力科赫为学生创办一个滑雪俱乐部的计划。)”可知，科赫打算用25000美元奖金为学生创办一个学习滑雪的新俱乐部。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。主要讲述乔纳森・科赫的职业转变历程。他起初离开大学追逐与雪有关的梦想，在与年轻运动员相处过程中发现自己引导年轻人的潜力，从而决定转行。获得硕士学位后成为一名教师，他将极限运动理念融入教学，形成独特教学风格，并打算用比赛奖金为学生创办滑雪俱乐部。所以B选项“From Snowboarding to Teaching: A Fearless Educator (从滑雪到教学：一位无畏的教育者)”最适合作为文章标题。 C The beneficial relationship between dogs and humans goes far beyond companionship. Dogs have been part of human society for over 20,000 years. While they initially aided hunters, they soon became household members. Although companion dogs don’t help secure food, mounting evidence suggests they help reduce anxiety and improve social skills. Recent research led by Dr. Kikusui Takefumi at Azabu University, published in iScience, longs to explore the underlying mechanism. It reveals that the microbes (微生物) in the gut (肠道) of dog owners differ significantly from those of non-owners, which at least partially explains the behavioral differences. The brain does not operate in isolation. Microbes elsewhere in the body, particularly in the gut, produce compounds that influence brain function. These microbes are shaped by diet, stress, pollutants, and exercise. Knowing from prior work that dog ownership affects the human gut microbes, Dr. Kikusui wondered whether that microbe transfer from dogs might bring psychological benefits. To test this, he conducted an experiment with 343 participants in Tokyo. The study focused specifically on teenagers, as adolescence is a crucial period for brain development where social interactions have lasting mental effects. Psychological analysis of 96 dog-owning teens and 247 non-owning teens showed, as expected, that dog owners had fewer social problems. More particularly, they exhibited less aggressive and problematic behavior. Saliva (唾液) samples revealed that certain strains (菌株) were more plentiful in dog owners. Further analysis linked lower levels of these key stains to more problematic behaviors, suggesting that microbes introduced by dogs may healthily influence their owners’ brains. The ideal next step — introducing dog microbes into non-owning teens. Given that it is an ethically grey area, he worked instead with mice. He cultured microbe samples from both teen groups and fed them to 24 mice. After six weeks, mice social tests measured how long they sniffed unfamiliar mice. Remarkably, mice with dog-owner microbes sniffed unfamiliar mice for up to 14 seconds, versus six seconds for the others. Dr. Kikusui admits direct comparisons between mouse and human behavior are not ideal, but his findings nevertheless indicate that microbial changes from dog ownership influence the brain. If true, the path to a healthier mind might begin not with self-reflection, but with a gentle petting and a few affectionate licks. 8. What is the main purpose of Dr. Kikusui’s study? A. To suggest that dogs can help reduce anxiety. B. To explore the key factor for brain development. C. To clarify the various microbes in dog-owners’ guts. D. To figure out why dog owners possess better social skills. 9. According to prior work, what did Dr. Kikusui assume before the experiment? A. Dog ownership has an effect on the human gut microbes. B. Microbes from dogs might psychologically benefit humans. C. Diet, exercise and stress are the factors to influence the microbes. D. Teenagers may transfer certain strains from their social interaction. 10. Why did Dr. Kikusui’s study focus on teenagers? A. Because they have more social problems. B. Because they are more likely to own dogs than adults. C. Because saliva samples are easier to collect from teens. D. Because social interactions will affect teens’ development. 11. What can we learn about the mouse experiment? A. It acted as an alternative when human testing wasn’t allowed. B. It successfully dismissed the doubts about Dr. Kikusui’s research. C. It was ideal because it was easy to introduce dog microbes to mice. D. It directly proved the comparisons between mouse and human behavior. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了狗与人的关系远超陪伴，研究发现养狗改变人体肠道微生物，进而影响青少年社交心理。受伦理限制改用小鼠实验，证实微生物可影响大脑与社交行为。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It reveals that the microbes (微生物) in the gut (肠道) of dog owners differ significantly from those of non-owners, which at least partially explains the behavioral differences.(该研究表明，狗主人肠道内的微生物与非主人的肠道内微生物存在显著差异，这至少部分解释了行为上的差异)”可知，池泽博士的研究主要目的是为了弄清楚为什么狗的主人拥有更好的社交能力。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Knowing from prior work that dog ownership affects the human gut microbes, Dr. Kikusui wondered whether that microbe transfer from dogs might bring psychological benefits.(此前的研究表明，养狗会影响人类肠道内的微生物群落。因此，基库苏伊博士推测，狗身上的这些微生物转移到人类体内是否会对人的心理状态产生积极影响)”可知，根据之前的研究，基库苏伊博士在实验前假设狗身上的微生物或许会对人类的心理产生有益影响。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The study focused specifically on teenagers, as adolescence is a crucial period for brain development where social interactions have lasting mental effects.(该研究特别关注了青少年群体，因为青春期是大脑发育的关键时期，在此期间的社交互动会对心理产生深远影响)”可知，基库苏伊博士的研究将重点放在青少年身上是因为社交互动会对青少年的成长产生影响。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Given that it is an ethically grey area, he worked instead with mice.(鉴于这是一个道德上较为模糊的领域，于是他转而用老鼠进行实验)”可知，这项老鼠实验在人类实验不允许进行的情况下起到了替代作用。 D Last year, my colleagues and I published a series of articles documenting China’s stunning rise in clean energy, and how America has fallen behind in adopting the low-carbon technologies like solar power and electric vehicles. We visited jaw-dropping Chinese solar farms, one of them covering about 420 square kilometers. We wrote about thousands of miles of ultra-high-voltage transmission (超高压输电) lines being built across the country. We analyzed how China is reshaping economies from South Africa to Brazil by exporting cheap solar panels and EVs. We tracked its rapid progress in emerging fields: nuclear fusion, autonomous driving, rare earth metals. This week, state media reported researchers developed a lithium battery that maintains its charge in very low temperatures. Clean energy technologies — including solar and EVs — contributed to more than a third of China’s economic growth last year, generating about $2.1 trillion in economic activity, according to an analysis by Carbon Brief. As the U.S. doubles down on domestic fossil fuels, China continues to expand its global influence. “China’s high-speed rail, ultra-modern subways, and growing fleet of self-driving EVs often make me feel like I’m living in the future,” said Keith Bradsher, my Times colleague who has been based in China for more than two decades. The efficiency of China’s infrastructure rewires how people perceive time and distance. Unlike America’s grid (电网),which is split by state borders and struggles to move power across regions—Texas wind rarely reaches New York. China’s ultra-high-voltage lines carry clean energy from remote deserts to massive coastal factories in hours. This perfect integration is a key reason China leads the world in green tech adoption. From affordable EVs to AI-powered services, China is not just catching up — it’s setting the pace. For many visitors, the contrast with the U.S., trapped in political deadlock over climate and infrastructure, is distinct. Living in China today is less about catching up to the future and more about living in it. 12. What is paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The author’s hard work to document in China. B. Recent stunning breakthroughs in lithium batteries. C. Discontent with America’s low-carbon technologies. D. China’s rise in clean energy and cutting-edge fields. 13. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 2 most likely mean? A. Keeps records of. B. Complains about. C. Commits heavily to. D. Reduces investment in. 14. What makes China lead globally in green tech adoption? A. Its grid that is more split by regional borders. B. Its great struggle to integrate green technologies. C. Its efficient cross-regional clean energy transmission. D. Its solution to deadlock over climate and infrastructure. 15. What could be the intention of writing the passage? A. To present the work of USA journalists. B. To appreciate China’s energy transition. C. To put blame on the energy policies of America. D. To compare different countries’ low-carbon technologies. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】主要阐述作者和同事记录中国在清洁能源领域的惊人崛起，如太阳能、电动汽车等，以及在新兴领域的快速进步，同时提及美国在低碳技术采用方面的滞后，通过对比凸显中国在绿色技术应用上的领先地位及对全球的影响。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Last year, my colleagues and I published a series of articles documenting China’s stunning rise in clean energy, and how America has fallen behind in adopting the low-carbon technologies like solar power and electric vehicles.

Simple actions like unnecessary apologies or weak boundaries can lead you to abandon your own comfort and sense of self. If you often feel taken advantage of or treated unfairly, it’s time to pause and reflect on your role. ____16____ You don’t enforce your boundaries. Setting boundaries is easier than enforcing them. ____17____ Nonetheless, do you hold people accountable when they cross the line? If not, you’re teaching them they can push without consequences. You don’t voice your discomfort. Expressing discomfort can be hard, especially with someone who downplays your feelings. For instance, you and your deskmate are close friends. However, you’ve mentioned before that you feel uncomfortable when others read your private notes without asking. Yet recently, you’ve noticed them flipping through your notebook casually several times. Your unease grows, but you stay silent, fearing conflict. ____18____ You apologize too much. ____19____ By all means, this is an admirable deed. Yet over-apologizing or saying sorry without reason can make you an emotional doormat. Do you often apologize for things you didn’t do wrong? Is “I’m sorry” a catchphrase? This common habit invites disrespect when you let others — or yourself — take blame for their mistakes. ____20____ This is unnoticeable and dangerous. If you compromise or justify your boundaries to make others happy, you disrespect yourself — and encourage others to do the same. Without standing by your values, you can lose yourself and invite disrespect into your life. Your values matter, even if not universally shared. A. You share the values with others. B. You abandon your values for others. C. Chances are you have stated them many times. D. You tend to step up and take responsibility habitually. E.

I sat in my seat, fingers tapping nervously on the desk — group work had never been my favorite, especially the behind-the-scene stuff. My partner, Lily, sat beside me. Her round eyes sparkled with enthusiasm, and she turned to me, and said gently, “What if we divide the work? I can collect cultural materials and design the PPT. You’re good at public speaking — maybe you can take charge of the speech part?” “Sure, that sounds great!” I replied, my heart already plotting to avoid the hard work. For the next week, I was always “busy” — chatting with classmates during breaks, playing games after class, and ignoring Lily’s repeated attempts to discuss the project. One afternoon, Lily gathered her courage, “Um… I can’t find enough information about ancient Egyptian culture. Can you help me search some materials online?” she whispered, her voice trembling slightly. I rolled my eyes, slamming my laptop shut with a loud bang. “I’m busy with the math test review! Just figure it out yourself — you’re always so careful, you’ll do it fine!” I grinned, walking away without glancing back. Lily froze, her shoulders sank. I never gave it a second thought, dashing to the playground to play basketball with Tom, a basketball lover who cared about nothing but playing basketball. I thought I was being “smart” — letting the diligent Lily do all the work, while I got the rewards with a single speech. What I didn’t know was that fate was about to teach me a bitter lesson. 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。 The next day, our teacher rearranged the groups for some reason, Tom pairing with me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Seeing me sitting alone, desperate and helpless, Lily approached. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day, our teacher rearranged the groups for some reason, Tom pairing with me. Panic surged through me as I realized Tom was as irresponsible as I was. He showed no interest in the presentation, constantly talking about basketball games. I was left to do everything alone. I started to search for materials online, but it was a mess. The information was scattered, and I had no idea how to organize it into a presentable PPT. Frustration welled up inside me as I struggled to piece things together. I deeply regretted my previous laziness and selfishness. Seeing me sitting alone, desperate and helpless, Lily approached. She looked at me with a kind smile. “Let me help,” she said softly. Without hesitation, she began to assist me. She sorted out the chaotic materials, designed a beautiful PPT, and gave me valuable advice on the speech. With her help, our presentation took shape. I was deeply touched by her kindness and felt ashamed of my behavior. This experience taught me the true meaning of teamwork and the importance of taking responsibility. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述在英语课上老师布置了学校文化节小组展示任务，作者的搭档Lily热情满满，提议分工合作，作者虽答应却一直偷懒逃避工作。Lily请求帮助时，作者以复习数学为由拒绝。没想到第二天老师重新分组，作者和同样不负责任的Tom 一组。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者和Tom一组后的恐惧以及深深后悔之前的懒惰和自私。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Lily对作者的帮助以及作者对这次经历的感悟。 2.续写线索：和Tom一组后独自面对困难——后悔——Lily 帮忙——完成展示并领悟道理。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①意识到：realize/be aware of ②组织：organize/arrange 情绪类 ①犹豫：hesitation/indecision ②温柔地：softly/gently 【点睛】【高分句型 1】Panic surged through me as I realized Tom was as irresponsible as I was.（运用了 as 引导的时间状语从句 ） 【高分句型 2】Frustration welled up inside me as I struggled to piece things together.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
