Here are four of those kinds of parks. Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve Unlike any other national park, this large park is entirely above the Arctic Circle (北极圈). In the northern park during winter, the sun doesn’t rise for nearly a month; in summer the sun doesn’t set for nearly two months. The park is similar to the wonders of the Great Plains before settlement. Hot Springs National Park This park is centred over 43 hot springs and 26 miles of hiking trails. Before 1921, Hot Springs had become a destination for curing health issued such as nervous disorders. In addition to bathing, visitors come to tour eight elegant, late Victorian-era bath houses — many in the Spanish colonial style. Indiana Dunes National Park With its 15 miles of shore under the constant forces of Lake Michigan’s wind and waves, Indiana’s only national park has high sands from which visitors can see the skyline of Chicago across the lake. Paths lead through the park’s wet lands, flat lands, and forests, home to more than 1,100 species of vascular plants. The park also shelters more than 60 historic structures, including houses from the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair. National Park of American Samoa Closer to New Zeal than the United States, American Samoa (sacred earth) is the most distant and (usually the) least visited in the National Park System. The park protects a paleotropical (古热带区) rainforest and more than 350 species of native birds. A third of the park is ocean water, with 250 coral species and 950 species of fish. 1. What is special about Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve? A. Arctic weather. B. Wild plants. C. Hot springs. D. High sands. 2. What can we learn about Indiana Dunes National Park? A. It is the smallest national park in Indiana. B. It is a mixture of nature and human culture. C. It featured the never - setting sun in summer. D. It is closer to New Zeal than the US. 3. What do these parks have in common? A. They are rich in rare natural resources. B. They have valuable historical sites. C. They have special paths for hiking. D. They are less known to tourists. B At 102 years old, the American neurologist (神经学家) Howard Tucker, has lived a life so singular that it earned him a Guinness World Record as the oldest practicing doctor. Though he officially hung up his white coat at 100, he remains as active and engaged as ever. Today, he lectures future physicians at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and consults on medico-legal cases. “Retirement, I think, is the enemy of longevity (长寿),” Dr. Tucker recently told Today. “You have to have some purpose in life and get up in the morning and know what you’re about.” Even after the hospital where he worked shut its doors in 2022, ending his medical practice at 100, it hasn’t prevented Tucker from returning to clinical work. “If it weren’t for the closure, I’d absolutely still be seeing patients,” he said. “Nobody wants me at my age — but I’ll keep trying.” His enthusiasm for life has caught the public imagination, especially through What’s Next, a documentary about his life produced by his grandson. Dr. Tucker credits his longevity not just to his parents who lived to 84 and 96 but also to his lifestyle choices, including a sensible diet and a happy life. His daily routine reflects that philosophy. He snowshoes in the winter, walks on the running machine for at least four kilometers a day, and eats a mostly clean diet. Dr. Tucker also says it’s important to keep the brain motivated. “If you retire from your work, you should at least do something as a hobby,” he explained. “You need a motivation for the brain daily.” For a man who’s devoted his life to healing others, Dr. Howard Tucker’s greatest lesson might be how to truly live. 4. The underlined word “singular” in Paragraph 1 most probably means ________. A. regular B. simple C. common D. extraordinary 5. What do we know about Tucker after he turned 100? A. He opened a new clinic by himself. B. He focused on making documentaries. C. He quit his job in order to be a consultant. D. He was still engaged in medical-related work. 6. What does Tucker think of retirement? A. It is necessary for the old. B. It is beneficial to improving health. C. It goes against living a long life. D. It helps offer a clear life goal. 7. What helps Tucker live long according to him? A. Good genes and a healthy lifestyle. B. Public attention and daily exercise. C. Rich social experience and family influence. D. An active brain care and strong enthusiasm. C In Spain, children in the Eixample area of Barcelona have a new way to get to school on Fridays — they ride their bikes. The program is called “bicibus” or “bikebus”. The Eixample bike bus begins around 8:25 every Friday morning. The path it will follow is always posted ahead of time, so everyone knows where to join. The bicibus starts off with just a few students and parents, with more and more joining as it travels along. Most kids ride their bikes, and others ride scooters (滑板车) or use skates. Instead of riding in bike lanes (车道) or on sidewalks, the bicibus takes over the entire street. With music playing and bike bells ringing, the bicibus feels like a party. Nine-year-old Marfa Pitarch says, “The best part of the bicibus is that we ride along and pick up my friends and we ride together.” The Eixample bicibus goes to several schools. When students reach their school, they leave the bicibus and park their bikes. Some parents have made the bicibus the way they get to work on Fridays. Because these are busy streets, the local police are helping stop traffic by riding in front of the bicibus and behind it. Parents are hoping that the bicibus will help change ideas about how people can get around in the city. They want the city to create wider, kid-friendly bike lanes. They point out that the bicibus also helps cut down on pollution. Pictures and videos of the Eixample bicibus got a lot of attention when they were posted on social media sites. Many people point out what a simple idea it is, and how easy it is to get started. 8. What can we learn about the bicibus from the first two paragraphs? A. It runs every weekday morning. B. It is only limited to young children. C. Its path will be announced in advance. D. It needs all to start off from the same place. 9. What’s the nicest thing about the bicibus according to Marfa Pitarch? A. The music along the road. B. The freedom to ride scooters. C. The fun of riding with friends. D. The route of the bicibus. 10. What makes the bicibus go smoothly? A. The guard from the police. B. The participation of parents. C. The size of the bicibus. D. The requirements on riding. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Getting around in the city B. Caring about our environment C. Creating more kid-friendly bike lanes D. Taking the “bike bus” to school D Repeated exposure (接触) to heatwaves, which are growing more frequent due to climate change, may speed up ageing, particularly among manual (体力) workers, a new study warns. Although previous research showed heatwaves had negative effects on the health of older people, it primarily focused on short-term exposure to constant heat. The new study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, assessed the potential long-term impact of heatwaves on health and ageing. Researchers analysed data from 24,922 adult people with an average biological age of 46 years to assess how heatwaves influenced ageing. They defined rapid ageing as the difference between biological and actual age and assessed its association with heatwave exposure. Biological age shows how old your body seems based on its actual health and condition, which can be different from your age in years. If your body’s age is higher than your actual age, you are more likely to get sick. By analysing patient data from 2008 to 2022, the researchers discovered that the more time people spent in heatwaves, the more their bodies aged. Though the participants appeared to adapt to heatwave conditions over the 15-year period, the harmful health effects did not disappear. Manual workers, rural residents and people in communities with fewer air conditioning units were more likely to be impacted by heatwaves on ageing, the study found. The findings suggest people living in places that experience more days of high heat show greater biological ageing on average than those in cooler regions. “Here we analysed data from 24,922 adults and used linear mixed models (线性混合模型) to show heatwaves speed up ageing,” the researchers said. The above findings carry significant applications and can be used to inform practical actions. Thus, based on the research findings, researchers are urging governments to make sure everyone is equally protected from heatwaves and to help communities handle them better, especially among at-risk groups. 12. What makes the new study different from previous research? A. It has a larger and diverse research team. B. It studied a much larger group of participants. C. It examined heat’s immediate effects on people. D. It focused on the long-term impact of heatwaves. 13. Who is most affected by heatwaves in terms of ageing according to the study? A. Office workers in air-conditioned buildings. B. People living in cold northern regions. C. Those who do physical work outdoors. D. Young adults with good medical care. 14. How did researchers prove that heatwaves speed up ageing? A. By asking people how old they felt. B. By testing new cooling technologies. C. By tracking biological age changes in adults. D. By measuring body temperature during heatwaves. 15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the study’s conclusions? A. Dismissive. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable. 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。选项有两项为多余选项。 First Aid for Choking (窒息): The Heimlich Maneuver Choking occurs when food or an object blocks the airway. A choking person cannot speak, cough effectively, or breathe, and may grab their throat. Without immediate help, choking can lead to serious harm or death. ____16____ If you see someone choking, stay calm and call emergency services right away. You should also call for emergency help while checking the person. Ask others nearby to help call for professionals while you check the situation. A choking person often cannot cough strongly, may turn blue, or show signs of struggling. The situations are too dangerous. ____17____ If they can still cough hard or talk, encourage them to continue trying to clear the blockage. But if they cannot cough or breathe well, act fast. For a conscious adult or older child, the Heimlich maneuver is usually the best method. ____18____ Stand behind the person, wrap your arms around their waist, and make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb side just above the belly button and below the breastbone. Grasp your fist with the other hand and give quick upward and inward thrusts. Repeat until the object is expelled or breathing returns. Be gentle but firm during the process. ____19____ If the person becomes unconscious, lay them down carefully, call emergency services again if needed, and start CPR if trained. ____20____ Lay the baby face down on your forearm, support the head and neck, and give up to five firm back blows between the shoulder blades (肩胛骨). If necessary, turn the baby over and give up to five chest thrusts (冲击/按压) with two or three fingers. Keep switching until the object is cleared or help arrives. Learning these skills can save lives. Being prepared makes a huge difference in emergencies. A. The Heimlich Maneuver doesn’t always work. B. Therefore, learning first aid for choking is vital. C. For young teenagers, a different set of steps is required. D. This helps prevent damage to the ribs (肋骨) or breastbones. E. So it is important to act quickly and correctly in such situations. F. However, the above steps are not suitable for babies under one year old. G. This method uses quick upward and inward pressure to force the object out. 第三部分：英语知识运用 第一节：完形填空（共15小题；每题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 “I loved the feeling of swimming outside, in the fresh air, fully immersed (沉浸) in nature.” Melanie Barratt, an unusual swimmer, ___21___ it into the record books by swimming across the English Channel unaided.

I was a boy who hid in the library, believing that reading was the only thing that made sense. The noise of a group, the closeness of others — these things made me uncomfortable. My music teacher, Mrs. Wills, did not scold me for my refusal. Instead, she just looked at me with a kind of quiet patience and said, “A single note is beautiful, but it is lost in the air. A harmony gives it a place to live.” I did not understand her words then. To me, singing in a group meant losing myself. I thought my voice would be covered by the louder, better singers. I was afraid of sounding weak. I was afraid of standing in a crowd. So, every Tuesday afternoon, while the others gathered in the music room, I stayed in the empty library, listening to the distant sound of their warm-ups echoing through the hall. Then came the announcement of the annual winter concert. Mrs. Wills came to find me again. This time, she did not ask me to join. She handed me a letter. “This is for you,” she said. “Read it, and then decide.” I opened the letter in the quiet corner of the library. On it was a short note: “We are missing one voice. The sound is not complete. We are not asking you to sing for the audience; we are asking you to sing for us — because a choir is not a collection of stars, but a constellation (星座). Without you, we are just a broken circle.” At the bottom of the letter were signatures — messy, small, but sincere. It was signed by every single member of the choir. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, I couldn’t sleep, the letter lying on my bedside table. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The night of the concert arrived, and as we stood backstage, I was trembling. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 哈九中2024级高二下学期期中考试 英语试卷 （时间：120分钟 满分：150分） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分20分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 听下面5段对话，每段对话读两遍。 1.

They are less known to tourists. 【答案】1. A 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一应用文。文章主要介绍了美国四座远离人群、需深入探索才能发现的偏远国家公园及其各自特点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Gates of the Arctic National Park and Preserve中的“Unlike any other national park, this large park is entirely above the Arctic Circle (北极). In the northern park during winter, the sun doesn’t rise for nearly a month; in summer the sun doesn’t set for nearly two months. (与其他任何国家公园不同，这座大型公园完全位于北极圈以上。在北方的公园里，冬天有近一个月太阳不升起；夏天有近两个月太阳不落下。)”可知，北极门国家公园的特别之处在于其北极气候（冬季近一个月极夜、夏季近两个月极昼）。故选A项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Indiana Dunes National Park中的“With its 15 miles of shore under the constant forces of Lake Michigan’s wind and waves, Indiana’s only national park has high sands from which visitors can see the skyline of Chicago across the lake. Paths lead through the park’s wet lands, flat lands, and forests, home to more than 1,100 species of vascular plants. The park also shelters more than 60 historic structures, including houses from the 1933 Chicago World’s Fair. (在密歇根湖风浪的持续作用下，这座印第安纳州唯一的国家公园拥有15英里的海岸线，游客可以从高沙丘上看到湖对岸芝加哥的天际线。小径穿过公园的湿地、平原和森林，这里有超过1100种维管植物。该公园还保护着60多座历史建筑，包括1933年芝加哥世界博览会的房屋。)”可知，印第安纳沙丘国家公园既有湿地、森林等自然景观，也有历史建筑等人文景观，是自然与人类文化的结合体。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Some distant US Parks, from Alaska to American Samoa, are kept well away from the crowds which may take a little more exploration to find. Here are four of those kinds of parks. (从阿拉斯加到美属萨摩亚，美国一些偏远的公园远离人群，可能需要更多的探索才能找到。以下是其中四座这样的公园。)”可知，这些公园的共同点是远离人群，不太为游客所熟知。故选D项。 B At 102 years old, the American neurologist (神经学家) Howard Tucker, has lived a life so singular that it earned him a Guinness World Record as the oldest practicing doctor. Though he officially hung up his white coat at 100, he remains as active and engaged as ever. Today, he lectures future physicians at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and consults on medico-legal cases. “Retirement, I think, is the enemy of longevity (长寿),” Dr. Tucker recently told Today. “You have to have some purpose in life and get up in the morning and know what you’re about.” Even after the hospital where he worked shut its doors in 2022, ending his medical practice at 100, it hasn’t prevented Tucker from returning to clinical work. “If it weren’t for the closure, I’d absolutely still be seeing patients,” he said. “Nobody wants me at my age — but I’ll keep trying.” His enthusiasm for life has caught the public imagination, especially through What’s Next, a documentary about his life produced by his grandson. Dr. Tucker credits his longevity not just to his parents who lived to 84 and 96 but also to his lifestyle choices, including a sensible diet and a happy life. His daily routine reflects that philosophy. He snowshoes in the winter, walks on the running machine for at least four kilometers a day, and eats a mostly clean diet. Dr. Tucker also says it’s important to keep the brain motivated. “If you retire from your work, you should at least do something as a hobby,” he explained. “You need a motivation for the brain daily.” For a man who’s devoted his life to healing others, Dr. Howard Tucker’s greatest lesson might be how to truly live. 4. The underlined word “singular” in Paragraph 1 most probably means ________. A. regular B. simple C. common D. extraordinary 5. What do we know about Tucker after he turned 100? A. He opened a new clinic by himself. B. He focused on making documentaries. C. He quit his job in order to be a consultant. D. He was still engaged in medical-related work. 6. What does Tucker think of retirement? A. It is necessary for the old. B. It is beneficial to improving health. C. It goes against living a long life. D. It helps offer a clear life goal. 7. What helps Tucker live long according to him? A. Good genes and a healthy lifestyle. B. Public attention and daily exercise. C. Rich social experience and family influence. D. An active brain care and strong enthusiasm. 【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了102岁医生Howard Tucker的长寿秘诀及积极的生活态度。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。 根据第一段中“At 102 years old, the American neurologist (神经学家) Howard Tucker, has lived a life so singular that it earned him a Guinness World Record as the oldest practicing doctor.(102岁的美国神经学家Howard Tucker，一生经历singular，也因此斩获吉尼斯世界纪录，成为全球仍在岗行医年龄最大的医生)”可知，能获得吉尼斯世界纪录的人生一定是非同寻常的，故singular意为“非凡的”，与extraordinary同义。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Today, he lectures future physicians at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland, Ohio, and consults on medico-legal cases.(如今，他在俄亥俄州克利夫兰的凯斯西储大学给未来的医生授课，并为医学法律案件提供咨询)”以及第三段中“it hasn’t prevented Tucker from returning to clinical work(这并没有阻止Tucker重返临床工作)”可知，Tucker在100岁后仍然从事医疗相关工作。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Retirement, I think, is the enemy of longevity (长寿)(我认为，退休是长寿的敌人)”可知，Tucker认为退休不利于长寿。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第四段中“Dr. Tucker credits his longevity not just to his parents who lived to 84 and 96 but also to his lifestyle choices, including a sensible diet and a happy life.(Tucker博士将他的长寿不仅归功于活到84岁和96岁的父母，还有他的生活方式选择，包括合理的饮食和快乐的生活)”可知，他认为好基因和健康的生活方式帮助他长寿。 C In Spain, children in the Eixample area of Barcelona have a new way to get to school on Fridays — they ride their bikes. The program is called “bicibus” or “bikebus”. The Eixample bike bus begins around 8:25 every Friday morning. The path it will follow is always posted ahead of time, so everyone knows where to join. The bicibus starts off with just a few students and parents, with more and more joining as it travels along. Most kids ride their bikes, and others ride scooters (滑板车) or use skates. Instead of riding in bike lanes (车道) or on sidewalks, the bicibus takes over the entire street. With music playing and bike bells ringing, the bicibus feels like a party. Nine-year-old Marfa Pitarch says, “The best part of the bicibus is that we ride along and pick up my friends and we ride together.” The Eixample bicibus goes to several schools. When students reach their school, they leave the bicibus and park their bikes. Some parents have made the bicibus the way they get to work on Fridays. Because these are busy streets, the local police are helping stop traffic by riding in front of the bicibus and behind it. Parents are hoping that the bicibus will help change ideas about how people can get around in the city. They want the city to create wider, kid-friendly bike lanes. They point out that the bicibus also helps cut down on pollution. Pictures and videos of the Eixample bicibus got a lot of attention when they were posted on social media sites. Many people point out what a simple idea it is, and how easy it is to get started. 8. What can we learn about the bicibus from the first two paragraphs? A. It runs every weekday morning. B. It is only limited to young children. C. Its path will be announced in advance. D. It needs all to start off from the same place. 9. What’s the nicest thing about the bicibus according to Marfa Pitarch? A. The music along the road. B. The freedom to ride scooters. C. The fun of riding with friends. D. The route of the bicibus. 10. What makes the bicibus go smoothly? A. The guard from the police. B. The participation of parents. C. The size of the bicibus. D. The requirements on riding. 11. Which can be the best title for the text? A. Getting around in the city B. Caring about our environment C. Creating more kid-friendly bike lanes D. Taking the “bike bus” to school 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了西班牙巴塞罗那Eixample地区每周五开展的“自行车巴士”活动，孩子们骑自行车或滑板车结伴上学。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The path it will follow is always posted ahead of time, so everyone knows where to join. (它将行驶的路线总是会提前公布，以便每个人都知道在哪里加入)”可知，自行车巴士的路线会提前公布。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Nine-year-old Marfa Pitarch says, “The best part of the bicibus is that we ride along and pick up my friends and we ride together.” (九岁的Marfa Pitarch说：“自行车巴士最棒的部分是我们骑车沿途接上我的朋友，然后我们一起骑行。”)”可知，Maria Pitarch认为自行车巴士最棒的是和朋友一起骑行的乐趣。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Because these are busy streets, the local police are helping stop traffic by riding in front of the bicibus and behind it. (由于这些街道繁忙，当地警察通过在自行车巴士前后骑行来协助拦停车辆)”可知，警察的护卫使自行车巴士能够顺利运行。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“In Spain, children in the Eixample area of Barcelona have a new way to get to school on Fridays — they ride their bikes. The program is called “bicibus” or “bikebus”.(在西班牙，巴塞罗那Eixample地区的孩子们周五有了一种上学的新方式——他们骑自行车去。这个项目被称为“bicibus”，即“自行车巴士”)”可知，文章主要介绍了巴塞罗那Eixample地区孩子们每周五骑“自行车巴士”上学的活动。故D项“Taking the “bike bus” to school (乘坐”自行车巴士”上学)”能概括文章内容，最适合做文章标题。 D Repeated exposure (接触) to heatwaves, which are growing more frequent due to climate change, may speed up ageing, particularly among manual (体力) workers, a new study warns. Although previous research showed heatwaves had negative effects on the health of older people, it primarily focused on short-term exposure to constant heat. The new study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, assessed the potential long-term impact of heatwaves on health and ageing. Researchers analysed data from 24,922 adult people with an average biological age of 46 years to assess how heatwaves influenced ageing. They defined rapid ageing as the difference between biological and actual age and assessed its association with heatwave exposure. Biological age shows how old your body seems based on its actual health and condition, which can be different from your age in years. If your body’s age is higher than your actual age, you are more likely to get sick. By analysing patient data from 2008 to 2022, the researchers discovered that the more time people spent in heatwaves, the more their bodies aged. Though the participants appeared to adapt to heatwave conditions over the 15-year period, the harmful health effects did not disappear. Manual workers, rural residents and people in communities with fewer air conditioning units were more likely to be impacted by heatwaves on ageing, the study found. The findings suggest people living in places that experience more days of high heat show greater biological ageing on average than those in cooler regions. “Here we analysed data from 24,922 adults and used linear mixed models (线性混合模型) to show heatwaves speed up ageing,” the researchers said. The above findings carry significant applications and can be used to inform practical actions. Thus, based on the research findings, researchers are urging governments to make sure everyone is equally protected from heatwaves and to help communities handle them better, especially among at-risk groups. 12. What makes the new study different from previous research? A. It has a larger and diverse research team. B. It studied a much larger group of participants. C. It examined heat’s immediate effects on people. D. It focused on the long-term impact of heatwaves. 13. Who is most affected by heatwaves in terms of ageing according to the study? A. Office workers in air-conditioned buildings. B. People living in cold northern regions. C. Those who do physical work outdoors. D. Young adults with good medical care. 14. How did researchers prove that heatwaves speed up ageing? A. By asking people how old they felt. B. By testing new cooling technologies. C. By tracking biological age changes in adults. D. By measuring body temperature during heatwaves. 15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the study’s conclusions? A. Dismissive. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Favorable. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍一项新研究警告，反复接触因气候变化而更频繁的热浪可能加速衰老，尤其影响体力劳动者及相关研究细节。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Although previous research showed heatwaves had negative effects on the health of older people, it primarily focused on short-term exposure to constant heat. The new study, published in the journal Nature Climate Change, assessed the potential long-term impact of heatwaves on health and ageing.(虽然之前的研究表明热浪对老年人的健康有负面影响，但它主要关注的是短期暴露在持续高温下的影响。这项发表在《自然·气候变化》杂志上的新研究评估了热浪对健康和衰老的潜在长期影响)”可知，新研究与之前研究的不同之处在于它关注热浪的长期影响，而之前的研究侧重短期影响。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Repeated exposure to heatwaves, which are growing more frequent due to climate change, may speed up ageing, particularly among manual workers, a new study warns.(一项新研究警告说，由于气候变化，热浪变得越来越频繁，反复接触热浪可能会加速衰老，尤其是在体力劳动者中)”和第五段中的“Manual workers, rural residents and people in communities with fewer air conditioning units were more likely to be impacted by heatwaves on ageing, the study found.(研究发现，体力劳动者、农村居民以及空调设备较少社区的居民更容易受到热浪对衰老的影响)”可知，从事体力劳动的人受热浪对衰老的影响最大，户外从事体力劳动的人属于此类。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Researchers analysed data from 24,922 adult people with an average biological age of 46 years to assess how heatwaves influenced ageing. They defined rapid ageing as the difference between biological and actual age and assessed its association with heatwave exposure.(研究人员分析了24922名平均生理年龄为46岁的成年人的数据，以评估热浪如何影响衰老。他们将快速衰老定义为生理年龄和实际年龄之间的差异，并评估了其与热浪暴露的关联)”和第四段中的“By analysing patient data from 2008 to 2022, the researchers discovered that the more time people spent in heatwaves, the more their bodies aged.(通过分析2008年至2022年的患者数据，研究人员发现，人们在热浪中停留的时间越长，身体衰老得就越厉害)”可知，研究人员通过追踪成年人的生理年龄变化来证明热浪会加速衰老。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“The above findings carry significant applications and can be used to inform practical actions. Thus, based on the research findings, researchers are urging governments to make sure everyone is equally protected from heatwaves and to help communities handle them better, especially among at-risk groups.(上述发现具有重要的应用价值，可用于指导实际行动。因此，基于研究结果，研究人员敦促政府确保每个人都能平等地受到热浪保护，并帮助社区更好地应对热浪，尤其是在高危群体中)”可知，作者认为研究结果具有重要应用价值，支持研究结论，态度是支持的。故选D项。 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。选项有两项为多余选项。 First Aid for Choking (窒息): The Heimlich Maneuver Choking occurs when food or an object blocks the airway. A choking person cannot speak, cough effectively, or breathe, and may grab their throat. Without immediate help, choking can lead to serious harm or death. ____16____ If you see someone choking, stay calm and call emergency services right away. You should also call for emergency help while checking the person. Ask others nearby to help call for professionals while you check the situation. A choking person often cannot cough strongly, may turn blue, or show signs of struggling. The situations are too dangerous. ____17____ If they can still cough hard or talk, encourage them to continue trying to clear the blockage. But if they cannot cough or breathe well, act fast. For a conscious adult or older child, the Heimlich maneuver is usually the best method. ____18____ Stand behind the person, wrap your arms around their waist, and make a fist with one hand. Place the thumb side just above the belly button and below the breastbone. Grasp your fist with the other hand and give quick upward and inward thrusts. Repeat until the object is expelled or breathing returns. Be gentle but firm during the process. ____19____ If the person becomes unconscious, lay them down carefully, call emergency services again if needed, and start CPR if trained. ____20____ Lay the baby face down on your forearm, support the head and neck, and give up to five firm back blows between the shoulder blades (肩胛骨). If necessary, turn the baby over and give up to five chest thrusts (冲击/按压) with two or three fingers. Keep switching until the object is cleared or help arrives. Learning these skills can save lives. Being prepared makes a huge difference in emergencies. A. The Heimlich Maneuver doesn’t always work. B. Therefore, learning first aid for choking is vital. C. For young teenagers, a different set of steps is required. D. This helps prevent damage to the ribs (肋骨) or breastbones. E. So it is important to act quickly and correctly in such situations. F. However, the above steps are not suitable for babies under one year old. G. This method uses quick upward and inward pressure to force the object out. 【答案】16. B 17. E 18. G 19. D 20.

I was a boy who hid in the library, believing that reading was the only thing that made sense. The noise of a group, the closeness of others — these things made me uncomfortable. My music teacher, Mrs. Wills, did not scold me for my refusal. Instead, she just looked at me with a kind of quiet patience and said, “A single note is beautiful, but it is lost in the air. A harmony gives it a place to live.” I did not understand her words then. To me, singing in a group meant losing myself. I thought my voice would be covered by the louder, better singers. I was afraid of sounding weak. I was afraid of standing in a crowd. So, every Tuesday afternoon, while the others gathered in the music room, I stayed in the empty library, listening to the distant sound of their warm-ups echoing through the hall. Then came the announcement of the annual winter concert. Mrs. Wills came to find me again. This time, she did not ask me to join. She handed me a letter. “This is for you,” she said. “Read it, and then decide.” I opened the letter in the quiet corner of the library. On it was a short note: “We are missing one voice. The sound is not complete. We are not asking you to sing for the audience; we are asking you to sing for us — because a choir is not a collection of stars, but a constellation (星座). Without you, we are just a broken circle.” At the bottom of the letter were signatures — messy, small, but sincere. It was signed by every single member of the choir. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, I couldn’t sleep, the letter lying on my bedside table. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The night of the concert arrived, and as we stood backstage, I was trembling. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: That night, I couldn’t sleep, the letter lying on my bedside table. The moonlight turned those messy signatures into silver promises. I kept reading the line: “We are missing one voice.” For the first time, it struck me that my silence wasn’t protecting me; it was hurting them. I imagined the choir practicing without me, that “broken circle” Mrs. Wills had mentioned. Overwhelmed by a strange courage, I sat up. I looked at my reflection in the dark window and hummed a single note. It sounded small and shaky, but it was real. At that moment, I decided I would rather be a small part of something complete than a whole lot of nothing alone. Paragraph 2: The night of the concert arrived, and as we stood backstage, I was trembling. The lights felt too bright, and the crowd sounded like a dangerous ocean. I wanted to run. Just then, Emma, the girl who stood next to me, reached out and held my cold hand. “Don’t worry,” she whispered. “We’ve got you.” When we walked onto the stage and the music started, something magical happened. As I opened my mouth, my weak voice did not get lost. Instead, it was wrapped in the warmth of the others. I was not a solo star, but I was a vital note in the chord. When the song ended, I realized I had not lost myself. I had finally found my place in the constellation. 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述“我”是一个喜欢躲在图书馆、害怕人群的男孩，起初坚决拒绝加入学校合唱团，认为群体歌唱会让自己迷失、显得渺小；音乐老师威尔斯夫人没有责备“我”，而是用温柔的话语引导“我”；在年度冬季音乐会来临之际，合唱团全体成员给“我”写了一封真诚的信，告诉“我”他们缺少“我”的声音，合唱团是星座而非星星的集合，“我”内心受到触动，最终鼓起勇气加入合唱团，找到自己的位置。 【详解】段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写“我”品读合唱团成员的信，内心的挣扎与触动，最终决定加入合唱团，迈出融入集体的第一步。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写“我”的紧张与胆怯，合唱团成员的鼓励；上台后“我”开口歌唱，发现自己的声音被大家的温暖包裹，没有迷失，反而成为合唱团中重要的一部分；演出结束后，“我”领悟到融入集体的意义。 续写线索：深夜品读信件、内心触动——意识到自己对合唱团的重要性——鼓起勇气决定加入——音乐会后台紧张胆怯——得到成员鼓励——上台歌唱、融入集体——领悟成长真谛、找到自己的位置 词汇激活 行为类 ①. 阅读：read/browse ②. 哼唱：hum/sing softly ③. 握住：hold/grip 情绪类 ①. 触动：strike/touch ②.伤害：hurt/harm 【点睛】[高分句型1].
