Build a bee hotel using a glass jar to provide a safe nesting place for solitary bees. This project helps kids learn about bee habitats, the importance of pollinators (传花粉者), and biodiversity. Materials Needed Clean glass jar (mason jar or similar), paper, scissors, string or wire, and tape (optional). Steps 1. Prepare your paper tubes: Cut and roll your paper into tubes to a length slightly shorter than the height of the glass jar. Ensure the ends are smooth and open. The bees will go into these tubes, so the tubes should be about half an inch in width. 2. Fill the jar: Pack paper tubes tightly into the jar, making sure they fit tightly and do not fall out. The tubes should be arranged so that the open ends face outward. 3. Hang the bee hotel: Attach string or wire around the neck of the jar, forming a loop (圈) for hanging. Choose a location that is sheltered from heavy rain and direct wind but receives plenty of sunlight, such as under the eaves of a building or on a tree branch. 4. Monitor and maintain: Check the bee hotel regularly to ensure it remains undamaged and clean. Replace any damaged or blocked tube as needed. Science Concepts Bee habitats: Learn about the natural nesting preferences of solitary bees and how creating suitable habitats can support their populations. Pollination: Understand the crucial role bees play in pollination and maintaining biodiversity in ecosystems. Conservation: Explore the importance of conserving pollinator species and promoting biodiversity through small-scale interventions like building bee hotels. Ecology: Gain insights into the interactions between living organisms and their environment, emphasizing the interconnectedness of ecosystems. 1. Who is this project intended for? A. Young learners. B. Urban planners. C. Experienced farmers. D. Professional ecologists. 2. What can we infer about the paper tubes used in building a bee hotel? A. They must be completely closed at one end. B. They need to be replaced on a weekly basis. C. Their width is less important than their length. D. Their openings should stay uncovered and accessible. 3. What is a key ecological insight children can gain from the project? A. The value of teamwork among insects. B. The harm caused by chemical pollution. C. The link between species and surroundings. D. The method of picking artificial nests for bees. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了用玻璃罐为独居蜜蜂建造栖息地（蜂屋）的步骤、所需材料及相关科学概念。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“This project helps kids learn about bee habitats, the importance of pollinators, and biodiversity.(这个项目帮助孩子们了解蜜蜂栖息地、传粉者的重要性以及生物多样性)”可知，该项目面向的是年轻的学习者（孩子们）。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Steps第2点中“The tubes should be arranged so that the open ends face outward.(管子应排列成开口朝外)”及第1点中“The bees will go into these tubes, so the tubes should be about half an inch in width.(蜜蜂会进入这些管子，所以管子的宽度应该是半英寸左右)”可知，纸管的开口应保持敞开且可进入。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Science Concepts中Ecology部分“Gain insights into the interactions between living organisms and their environment, emphasizing the interconnectedness of ecosystems.(深入了解生物与其环境之间的相互作用，强调生态系统的相互联系)”可知，孩子们能获得的关键生态见解是物种与周围环境之间的联系。 B In 1987, a community service organization in San Diego, California, made a decision: to open a dental clinic inside its health center. The organization knew that for homeless people, dental care was often overlooked but very important for their well-being. At first, the clinic was small, but its goal was clear — to help those who had no home and no money to see a dentist. Every day, the dentists faced loose teeth, serious gum diseases, and the worried faces of patients who felt pain and shame. But they never gave up. Each fixed tooth and each new set of dentures (假牙) brought smiles back to their patients. Over the years, this clinic has quietly changed thousands of lives. In 2024 alone, about 4,000 patients received care here, and over 800 of them benefited from dental services. Many people, having regained their confidence, successfully found jobs and moved into stable housing. Later, a $ 150,000 gift allowed the clinic to do even more. The clinic planned to help 145 more community members get dental care, including at least 52 new patients who would receive dentures — a 30% increase from their yearly goal. The total number of visits would reach 203, a 27% rise. Besides dental care, the organization also provides medical services, job training, community building, and housing for over 2,500 people each night in San Diego. A dentist working here described the miracle he witnessed every day. He said, “The most amazing thing we see is not just the repaired teeth, but the birth of hope. Patients begin to believe that things will get better, that they still have a chance to do something with their lives, and that their lives can still have meaning. That is the true miracle.” Today, this organization continues to care for those who need help most in San Diego, lighting up one life at a time, one smile at a time. 4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce a new health center. B. To state a problem and its solution. C. To show the clinic’s long-term results. D. To describe homeless people’s condition. 5. What did the clinic do after receiving the donation? A. It greatly increased its dental services. B. It provided housing for over 2,500 people. C. It offered medical care to another 145 people. D. It launched training programs for the homeless. 6. What can be inferred from the dentist’s words? A. Patients purchase dentures to regain hope. B. Patients recover faith in a brighter tomorrow. C. The clinic values hope more than other things. D. The clinic pays attention to patients’ mental health. 7. Which is the best title for the text? A. Restoring Smiles and Hope for the Homeless B. A Dental Clinic’s Technological Breakthroughs C. A Small Donation Helps a Dental Clinic Expand D. Homeless People’s Battle Against Gum Diseases 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了圣地亚哥一家社区诊所为无家可归者提供牙科服务并重燃生活希望的暖心故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In 1987, a community service organization in San Diego, California, made a decision: to open a dental clinic inside its health center. The organization knew that for homeless people, dental care was often overlooked but very important for their well-being.(1987年，加利福尼亚州圣地亚哥的一家社区服务组织做出了一个决定：在其健康中心内开设一家牙科诊所。该组织知道，对于无家可归者来说，牙科护理常常被忽视，但对他们的健康福祉却非常重要)”可知，第一段先提出问题：无家可归者的牙科护理被忽视但很重要，再给出解决方案：开设牙科诊所。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The clinic planned to help 145 more community members get dental care, including at least 52 new patients who would receive dentures — a 30% increase from their yearly goal. The total number of visits would reach 203, a 27% rise.(诊所计划帮助另外145名社区成员获得牙科护理，其中至少52名新患者将获得假牙——比他们的年度目标增加了30%。就诊总次数将达到203次，增长了27%)”可知，收到捐款后诊所大幅增加了牙科服务。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“The most amazing thing we see is not just the repaired teeth, but the birth of hope. Patients begin to believe that things will get better, that they still have a chance to do something with their lives, and that their lives can still have meaning.(我们所看到的最令人惊叹的并非是修复后的牙齿，而是那种希望的诞生。患者们开始相信情况会有所好转，相信他们仍有机会让自己的生活有所作为，相信他们的生活仍能有意义)”可知，患者重新相信未来会变好，生活仍有意义，即重拾了对未来的信心。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，文章围绕诊所为无家可归者修复牙齿、重燃生活希望展开，最后一段“Today, this organization continues to care for those who need help most in San Diego, lighting up one life at a time, one smile at a time.(如今，该组织继续关爱着圣地亚哥最需要帮助的人们，一次点亮一个生命，一次点亮一个微笑)”也呼应了标题，所以A选项“为无家可归者重拾笑容与希望”最能概括全文主旨。 C My mother’s name makes me think of the color of milk. When you play an acoustic guitar, the sound feels like the warm yellow of honeycomb. The sound is flat, hard, and smooth. And Monday feels pink. These feelings are always the same, and always there. This is called synaesthesia (联觉). Synaesthesia is a brain phenomenon that causes about 4.4% of people to experience the world as a mix of different feelings. For example, words can create taste, numerical orders may be seen in certain space arrangements, or touching something might bring out emotions. Synaesthesia is not considered a brain disorder. Although it has been linked to brain development and mental health conditions like autism, anxiety, and schizophrenia, it is described as an “alternative way of perceiving reality” and is generally seen as helpful. Julia Simner, a researcher at the University of Sussex, found that children with synaesthesia did better than those without in several skills — skills that would certainly help both first and second language learning. “Specifically, they were much better in understanding words, using words, short-term memory, attention to detail, and creativity,” says Simner. However, synaesthesia can sometimes make communication harder. Also, according to Lucie Bouvet, a psychologist at the University of Toulouse, the idea that synaesthesia might be used as a way to help learning remains a topic of debate. Whether synaesthesia is helpful or not, studying it can help us understand how our minds process language and perception. “Synaesthesia is an interesting phenomenon in itself,” says Bouvet, “and recent research suggests that it is part of a broader, special mental profile. Finding this unique mental profile may be key to gaining a deeper understanding of synaesthesia.” For me, living with this mix of feelings brings joy. Listening to music is a full experience. I sink into an ocean of textures as if I’m under a soft blanket or in cool water. The words of a book are not just ink on a page — they bring the story to life as they swirl around me. And language fills the air with a rainbow of color. 8. What is synaesthesia according to the text? A. A rare brain reaction. B. A language learning tool. C. A common sense disorder. D. A mixed feeling experience. 9. Which is an advantage synaesthetic children showed in Simner’s study? A. Strong social skills. B. Long-term memory. C. Good word comprehension. D. Speedy physical responses. 10. What is Lucie Bouvet’s attitude to synaesthesia research? A. Indifferent. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Cautious. 11. Why does the author consider synaesthesia a positive thing? A. It helps recall past events. B. It improves school test scores. C. It prevents mental health issues. D. It makes daily experiences richer. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了联觉这一大脑现象的定义、对学习的帮助及对日常生活的积极影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Synaesthesia is a brain phenomenon that causes about 4.4% of people to experience the world as a mix of different feelings.(联觉是一种大脑现象，导致约4.4%的人将世界体验为不同感觉的混合)”可知，联觉是一种混合感觉体验。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中““Specifically, they were much better in understanding words, using words, short-term memory, attention to detail, and creativity,” says Simner.(Simner说：“具体来说，他们在理解词汇、使用词汇、短期记忆、注重细节和创造力方面要好得多。”)”可知，联觉儿童在词汇理解方面表现突出。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““Synaesthesia is an interesting phenomenon in itself,” says Bouvet, “and recent research suggests that it is part of a broader, special mental profile. Finding this unique mental profile may be key to gaining a deeper understanding of synaesthesia.”(Bouvet说：“联觉本身就是一种有趣的现象，而最近的研究表明，它是更广泛的、特殊的心理特征的一部分。找到这种独特的心理特征可能是深入理解联觉的关键。”)”可知，Bouvet认为联觉研究很有价值，值得深入探索，说明她对联觉研究持支持态度。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“For me, living with this mix of feelings brings joy. Listening to music is a full experience. I sink into an ocean of textures as if I’m under a soft blanket or in cool water. The words of a book are not just ink on a page — they bring the story to life as they swirl around me. And language fills the air with a rainbow of color.(对我来说，生活在这种混合的感觉中带来了快乐。听音乐是一种完整的体验。我沉浸在一片质感的海洋中，仿佛置身于柔软的毯子下或清凉的水中。书中的文字不仅仅是纸上的墨迹——它们在我周围旋转时让故事栩栩如生。而语言则让空气中充满了彩虹般的色彩)”可知，作者认为联觉让日常体验更加丰富。 D While lightning is a fascinating phenomenon, it’s also infamous for its capacity for destruction and the danger it poses to life. Each year, lightning claims hundreds of millions of trees worldwide, leaving behind burnt trunks and broken branches. Yet, in an interesting twist of nature, some tropical trees have turned this destructive force of nature to their advantage. A recent study reports that the tropical almond tree (热带杏仁树)not only survives direct lightning strikes but thrives because of them. Researchers discovered that a lightning strike damages the surrounding trees that directly compete for resources and also destroys lianas (藤本植物), those woody parasitic vines (寄生藤) known to strangle and reduce the growth of many rainforest trees. Researchers long suspected some tree species had tolerance towards lightning, but no evidence existed to back up this assumption. The team of researchers, led by Evan Gora, placed a lightning location system across Barro Colorado Nature Monument in central Panama to track the after-effects on 93 trees struck by lightning. Over six years, scientists paid special attention to nine almond trees that were struck. Remarkably, every single tree survived with only minor damage. In contrast, all other trees subjected to a direct hit were severely damaged, and nearly two-thirds died within two years of the strike. On average, a single lightning strike cleared out 9.2 neighboring trees as the current passed along via vines and neighboring branches. Additionally, the liana infestation on almond trees decreased by 78%. With less competition for sunlight, space, and nutrients, these trees increased their reproductive capacity by 14 times. Since almond trees can live for hundreds of years, they are expected to withstand multiple strikes throughout their lives. “Seeing that there are trees that get struck by lightning and they’re fine was just mind-blowing,” says Gora. “It’s better off for an almond tree to be struck than not.” 12. What does the underlined word “strangle” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Surround. B. Assist. C. Prevent. D. Drown. 13. What was the lightning location system used to do? A. Predict future lightning strikes. B. Record lightning’s direct impacts. C. Reduce lightning damage to trees. D. Observe long-term ecological changes. 14. What happened to almond trees after surviving lightning strikes? A. They got special ability to grow. B. They gained a competitive advantage. C. They attracted more lianas than before. D. They needed more sunlight to survive. 15. Which best describes Gora’s feeling about almond trees’ surviving lightning? A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Curious. D. Astonished. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【原文】文章主要介绍了热带杏仁树不仅能承受雷击，还能从中获益的科学发现。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Researchers discovered that a lightning strike damages the surrounding trees that directly compete for resources and also destroys lianas (藤本植物), those woody parasitic vines (寄生藤) known to strangle and reduce the growth of many rainforest trees.(研究人员发现，雷击会破坏周围直接争夺资源的树木，也会破坏藤本植物，藤本植物是一种木本寄生藤蔓，已知会strangle和减少许多雨林树木的生长)”可知，strangle与reduce the growth并列，即藤本植物会抑制并减少雨林树木的生长，所以划线单词意为“阻止、抑制生长”。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The team of researchers, led by Evan Gora, placed a lightning location system across Barro Colorado Nature Monument in central Panama to track the after-effects on 93 trees struck by lightning.(由Evan Gora领导的研究团队在巴拿马中部的巴罗科罗拉多自然纪念碑放置了一个闪电定位系统，以追踪93棵被闪电击中的树木的事后影响)”可知，该系统用于追踪被雷击树木的直接影响。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“With less competition for sunlight, space, and nutrients, these trees increased their reproductive capacity by 14 times.(由于阳光、空间和养分的竞争减少，这些树的繁殖能力提高了14倍)”可知，杏仁树在雷击后获得了竞争优势。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Seeing that there are trees that get struck by lightning and they’re fine was just mind-blowing,” says Gora. “It’s better off for an almond tree to be struck than not.”（Gora说：“看到有些树被闪电击中却安然无恙，这真是令人震惊。对于杏仁树来说，被闪电击中反而比不被击中更好。”)”可知，Gora对杏仁树能在雷击后存活感到非常惊讶。 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。 Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects the way a person moves. Parkinson’s disease develops gradually and may start with a barely noticeable tremor (颤抖) in one of your hands. ____16____ However, certain factors such as genes and environment may play a role. Here are some ways to prevent Parkinson’s disease. Drink coffee. Having a cup of coffee every day may help minimize your risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. Make sure to stay within recommended daily allowances for caffeine. ____17____ In addition to having coffee, green tea may also prevent Parkinson’s disease. Green tea has compounds called green tea polyphenols, a type of antioxidant, which may eliminate free radicals in your system. ____18____ Eating more peppers — red, green, yellow, and orange — may lower your risk for developing Parkinson’s disease. Add peppers into daily meals and have them as snacks, both of which may help you stave off (暂时挡住) Parkinson’s disease when combined with other dietary and lifestyle choices. Eat lots of fresh, raw vegetables. In addition to eating peppers, having fresh and raw vegetables at every meal may decrease your risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. This is because fresh vegetables contain the B vitamin folate (叶酸), which is also called folic acid. ____19____ Limit your iron intake. Eating iron is key to staying healthy. ____20____ Too much iron may put your body under oxidative stress, which is when your body releases toxic free radicals into your system. In turn, this can contribute to the degeneration of brain cells that are often found in Parkinson’s disease patients. A. Exercise regularly. B. Enjoy more peppers. C. Don’t cook too long, or it will destroy its nutrients. D. Doctors don’t know what causes Parkinson’s disease. E. In this way, you don’t develop other health problems. F. Low levels of it will increase your risk for the disease. G. However, it’s important to consume it within recommended levels. 【答案】16. D 17. E 18. B 19. F 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了帕金森病的基本特征及病因不明的现状，并从喝咖啡、喝绿茶、多吃辣椒和新鲜蔬菜、限制铁摄入等方面提出了预防帕金森病的方法。 【16题详解】 上文“Parkinson’s disease develops gradually and may start with a barely noticeable tremor (颤抖) in one of your hands. (帕金森病逐渐发展，可能从一只手几乎察觉不到的颤抖开始)”介绍了帕金森病的症状表现，及下文“However, certain factors such as genes and environment may play a role. (然而，某些因素如基因和环境可能起作用)”用However转折，暗示目前病因尚不明确。D选项“医生们不知道帕金森病的病因是什么”承上启下，说明虽然了解症状但病因不明，与下文However构成“虽然不知道确切病因，但某些因素可能起作用”的逻辑。 【17题详解】 上文“Make sure to stay within recommended daily allowances for caffeine. (确保咖啡因摄入量在推荐范围内)”建议喝咖啡预防帕金森但要适量，及下文“In addition to having coffee, green tea may also prevent Parkinson’s disease. (除了喝咖啡，绿茶也可能预防帕金森病)”引出另一种饮品。E选项“这样，你就不会产生其他健康问题”承上启下，说明适量喝咖啡不仅能降低帕金森风险，还能避免其他健康问题，与下文In addition to自然衔接，符合语境。 【18题详解】 下文“Eating more peppers — red, green, yellow, and orange — may lower your risk for developing Parkinson’s disease. (多吃辣椒——红的、绿的、黄的和橙的——可能降低患帕金森病的风险)”整段围绕吃辣椒展开，B选项“多吃辣椒”作为本段小标题，统领全段内容，与上下文各段小标题格式一致，符合语境。 【19题详解】 上文“This is because fresh vegetables contain the B vitamin folate (叶酸), which is also called folic acid. (这是因为新鲜蔬菜含有B族维生素叶酸，也叫叶酸)”解释了新鲜蔬菜能降低风险的原因是含有叶酸，F选项“叶酸含量低会增加患病风险”进一步说明叶酸的重要性——叶酸不足则风险增加，与上文形成“叶酸能降低风险→叶酸不足则风险增加”的正反论证，逻辑通顺。 【20题详解】 上文“Eating iron is key to staying healthy. (摄入铁对保持健康很关键)”肯定了铁的重要性，及下文“Too much iron may put your body under oxidative stress (过多的铁可能使身体处于氧化应激状态)”说明铁过多的危害。G选项“然而，重要的是要在推荐的摄入量范围内摄入它”中的However与上文形成转折，说明铁虽重要但要适量，it指代iron，与下文Too much iron形成“要适量→过多有害”的完整逻辑链。 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。 What started as a simple exchange of flashlight signals has turned into a daily tradition filled with encouragement, kindness, and hope.

The football team was practicing, the cheerleaders were cheering, and Josh was talking at me like he always did. “Derek, are you listening?” he asked. I nodded, but my mind was elsewhere. No one knew that I wanted to become an Olympic long jumper. My parents expected me to be a great doctor. They had sent me to a junior doctors’ camp until seventh grade. But secretly, I had dreamed of long jumping since I was a little boy. I knew my parents would be disappointed if I chose sports. Josh kept talking about his own plans to become a dancer. But I had a bigger problem. This year, we had to choose our career path. We had less than six months to decide where we were headed. I was good at long jumping. I had learned at school since my parents never put me in sports. My friend Delilah was on the junior long jumping team. After school, I stayed and practiced with her team just to see if this was what I truly wanted. When I ran fast with fierce determination and jumped like it was life or death, I breathed in the fresh air for a second. Then I charged toward the sand pit. Adrenaline (肾上腺素) ran through my body. My feet lifted up, my arms moved in the wind, and finally came the landing. That was what I wanted to do. I barely made it through math class that day. The choice between long jumping and being a doctor was troubling me too much. Then I came up with a plan. I would volunteer at the hospital as a doctor’s assistant and also sign up for the long jumping team tryouts. This way, I could see which path I preferred. My hands shaking, I signed up for the tryout and got the last volunteer spot in the hospital. But the first day was awful — busy, stressful, and messy. Mom said, “You were meant to be a doctor.” I smiled, but inside I wanted to tell her the truth. 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。 After four terrible weeks, I knew I didn’t want to become a doctor. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the competition, I warmed up and got ready. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： After four terrible weeks, I knew I didn’t want to become a doctor. But I had to tell my parents. My mother was a skilled surgeon, and my father was a top plastic surgeon. They both believed in me. One evening, I sat down with them and said, “I don’t want to be a doctor.” They looked shocked and sad. Then I added, “I want to be a long jumper. I have a contest next Saturday. Please sign the permission slip.” My father agreed, while my mother remained silent. On the day of the competition, I warmed up and got ready. When I glanced at my parents in the crowd, I smiled. I ran fast and leaped into the air. When I landed in the sand and looked at the scoreboard, I had won. My parents were cheering for me. After I got home, they gave me a big hug and said, “We are very proud of you so we will support you.” I smiled and thanked them. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了Derek在父母期望当医生与自己热爱跳远之间挣扎，最终勇敢追梦并获得父母支持的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Derek在医院做志愿者四周后彻底确认自己不适合当医生，鼓起勇气向父母坦白自己想成为跳远运动员的梦想，并请求父母在许可单上签字。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Derek在比赛当天奋力一跳并赢得比赛，赛后父母从震惊转为骄傲，给予他拥抱和支持。 2.续写线索：医院志愿煎熬——厌恶医学、热爱跳远——坦诚梦想、父母迟疑——赛场紧张备赛——奋力跳跃斩获佳绩——父母理解并支持追梦 3.词汇积累 行为类 ①瞥向：glance at/take a quick look at ②奋力奔跑：run fast/sprint/dash forward ③拥抱某人：give sb. a big hug/embrace sb. 情绪类 ①震惊的：shocked/stunned/surprised ②对……感到自豪：be proud of /take pride in 【点睛】【高分句型1】When I glanced at my parents in the crowd, I smiled.（运用了when引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】After I got home, they gave me a big hug and said, “We are very proud of you so we will support you.”（运用了after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 $ 高三英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 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.

Build a bee hotel using a glass jar to provide a safe nesting place for solitary bees. This project helps kids learn about bee habitats, the importance of pollinators (传花粉者), and biodiversity. Materials Needed Clean glass jar (mason jar or similar), paper, scissors, string or wire, and tape (optional). Steps 1. Prepare your paper tubes: Cut and roll your paper into tubes to a length slightly shorter than the height of the glass jar. Ensure the ends are smooth and open. The bees will go into these tubes, so the tubes should be about half an inch in width. 2. Fill the jar: Pack paper tubes tightly into the jar, making sure they fit tightly and do not fall out. The tubes should be arranged so that the open ends face outward. 3. Hang the bee hotel: Attach string or wire around the neck of the jar, forming a loop (圈) for hanging. Choose a location that is sheltered from heavy rain and direct wind but receives plenty of sunlight, such as under the eaves of a building or on a tree branch. 4. Monitor and maintain: Check the bee hotel regularly to ensure it remains undamaged and clean. Replace any damaged or blocked tube as needed. Science Concepts Bee habitats: Learn about the natural nesting preferences of solitary bees and how creating suitable habitats can support their populations. Pollination: Understand the crucial role bees play in pollination and maintaining biodiversity in ecosystems. Conservation: Explore the importance of conserving pollinator species and promoting biodiversity through small-scale interventions like building bee hotels. Ecology: Gain insights into the interactions between living organisms and their environment, emphasizing the interconnectedness of ecosystems. 1. Who is this project intended for? A. Young learners. B. Urban planners. C. Experienced farmers. D. Professional ecologists. 2. What can we infer about the paper tubes used in building a bee hotel? A. They must be completely closed at one end. B. They need to be replaced on a weekly basis. C. Their width is less important than their length. D. Their openings should stay uncovered and accessible. 3. What is a key ecological insight children can gain from the project? A. The value of teamwork among insects. B. The harm caused by chemical pollution. C. The link between species and surroundings. D. The method of picking artificial nests for bees. B In 1987, a community service organization in San Diego, California, made a decision: to open a dental clinic inside its health center. The organization knew that for homeless people, dental care was often overlooked but very important for their well-being. At first, the clinic was small, but its goal was clear — to help those who had no home and no money to see a dentist. Every day, the dentists faced loose teeth, serious gum diseases, and the worried faces of patients who felt pain and shame. But they never gave up. Each fixed tooth and each new set of dentures (假牙) brought smiles back to their patients. Over the years, this clinic has quietly changed thousands of lives. In 2024 alone, about 4,000 patients received care here, and over 800 of them benefited from dental services. Many people, having regained their confidence, successfully found jobs and moved into stable housing. Later, a $ 150,000 gift allowed the clinic to do even more. The clinic planned to help 145 more community members get dental care, including at least 52 new patients who would receive dentures — a 30% increase from their yearly goal. The total number of visits would reach 203, a 27% rise. Besides dental care, the organization also provides medical services, job training, community building, and housing for over 2,500 people each night in San Diego. A dentist working here described the miracle he witnessed every day. He said, “The most amazing thing we see is not just the repaired teeth, but the birth of hope. Patients begin to believe that things will get better, that they still have a chance to do something with their lives, and that their lives can still have meaning. That is the true miracle.” Today, this organization continues to care for those who need help most in San Diego, lighting up one life at a time, one smile at a time. 4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph? A. To introduce a new health center. B. To state a problem and its solution. C. To show the clinic’s long-term results. D. To describe homeless people’s condition. 5. What did the clinic do after receiving the donation? A. It greatly increased its dental services. B. It provided housing for over 2,500 people. C. It offered medical care to another 145 people. D. It launched training programs for the homeless. 6. What can be inferred from the dentist’s words? A. Patients purchase dentures to regain hope. B. Patients recover faith in a brighter tomorrow. C. The clinic values hope more than other things. D. The clinic pays attention to patients’ mental health. 7. Which is the best title for the text? A. Restoring Smiles and Hope for the Homeless B. A Dental Clinic’s Technological Breakthroughs C. A Small Donation Helps a Dental Clinic Expand D. Homeless People’s Battle Against Gum Diseases C My mother’s name makes me think of the color of milk. When you play an acoustic guitar, the sound feels like the warm yellow of honeycomb. The sound is flat, hard, and smooth. And Monday feels pink. These feelings are always the same, and always there. This is called synaesthesia (联觉). Synaesthesia is a brain phenomenon that causes about 4.4% of people to experience the world as a mix of different feelings. For example, words can create taste, numerical orders may be seen in certain space arrangements, or touching something might bring out emotions. Synaesthesia is not considered a brain disorder. Although it has been linked to brain development and mental health conditions like autism, anxiety, and schizophrenia, it is described as an “alternative way of perceiving reality” and is generally seen as helpful. Julia Simner, a researcher at the University of Sussex, found that children with synaesthesia did better than those without in several skills — skills that would certainly help both first and second language learning. “Specifically, they were much better in understanding words, using words, short-term memory, attention to detail, and creativity,” says Simner. However, synaesthesia can sometimes make communication harder. Also, according to Lucie Bouvet, a psychologist at the University of Toulouse, the idea that synaesthesia might be used as a way to help learning remains a topic of debate. Whether synaesthesia is helpful or not, studying it can help us understand how our minds process language and perception. “Synaesthesia is an interesting phenomenon in itself,” says Bouvet, “and recent research suggests that it is part of a broader, special mental profile. Finding this unique mental profile may be key to gaining a deeper understanding of synaesthesia.” For me, living with this mix of feelings brings joy. Listening to music is a full experience. I sink into an ocean of textures as if I’m under a soft blanket or in cool water. The words of a book are not just ink on a page — they bring the story to life as they swirl around me. And language fills the air with a rainbow of color. 8. What is synaesthesia according to the text? A. A rare brain reaction. B. A language learning tool. C. A common sense disorder. D. A mixed feeling experience. 9. Which is an advantage synaesthetic children showed in Simner’s study? A. Strong social skills. B. Long-term memory. C. Good word comprehension. D. Speedy physical responses. 10. What is Lucie Bouvet’s attitude to synaesthesia research? A. Indifferent. B. Negative. C. Supportive. D. Cautious. 11. Why does the author consider synaesthesia a positive thing? A. It helps recall past events. B. It improves school test scores. C. It prevents mental health issues. D. It makes daily experiences richer. D While lightning is a fascinating phenomenon, it’s also infamous for its capacity for destruction and the danger it poses to life. Each year, lightning claims hundreds of millions of trees worldwide, leaving behind burnt trunks and broken branches. Yet, in an interesting twist of nature, some tropical trees have turned this destructive force of nature to their advantage. A recent study reports that the tropical almond tree (热带杏仁树)not only survives direct lightning strikes but thrives because of them. Researchers discovered that a lightning strike damages the surrounding trees that directly compete for resources and also destroys lianas (藤本植物), those woody parasitic vines (寄生藤) known to strangle and reduce the growth of many rainforest trees. Researchers long suspected some tree species had tolerance towards lightning, but no evidence existed to back up this assumption. The team of researchers, led by Evan Gora, placed a lightning location system across Barro Colorado Nature Monument in central Panama to track the after-effects on 93 trees struck by lightning. Over six years, scientists paid special attention to nine almond trees that were struck. Remarkably, every single tree survived with only minor damage. In contrast, all other trees subjected to a direct hit were severely damaged, and nearly two-thirds died within two years of the strike. On average, a single lightning strike cleared out 9.2 neighboring trees as the current passed along via vines and neighboring branches. Additionally, the liana infestation on almond trees decreased by 78%. With less competition for sunlight, space, and nutrients, these trees increased their reproductive capacity by 14 times. Since almond trees can live for hundreds of years, they are expected to withstand multiple strikes throughout their lives. “Seeing that there are trees that get struck by lightning and they’re fine was just mind-blowing,” says Gora. “It’s better off for an almond tree to be struck than not.” 12. What does the underlined word “strangle” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Surround. B. Assist. C. Prevent. D. Drown. 13. What was the lightning location system used to do? A. Predict future lightning strikes. B. Record lightning’s direct impacts. C. Reduce lightning damage to trees. D. Observe long-term ecological changes. 14. What happened to almond trees after surviving lightning strikes? A. They got special ability to grow. B. They gained a competitive advantage. C. They attracted more lianas than before. D. They needed more sunlight to survive. 15. Which best describes Gora’s feeling about almond trees’ surviving lightning? A. Doubtful. B. Worried. C. Curious. D. Astonished. 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。 Parkinson’s disease is a progressive neurological disorder that affects the way a person moves. Parkinson’s disease develops gradually and may start with a barely noticeable tremor (颤抖) in one of your hands. ____16____ However, certain factors such as genes and environment may play a role. Here are some ways to prevent Parkinson’s disease. Drink coffee. Having a cup of coffee every day may help minimize your risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. Make sure to stay within recommended daily allowances for caffeine. ____17____ In addition to having coffee, green tea may also prevent Parkinson’s disease. Green tea has compounds called green tea polyphenols, a type of antioxidant, which may eliminate free radicals in your system. ____18____ Eating more peppers — red, green, yellow, and orange — may lower your risk for developing Parkinson’s disease. Add peppers into daily meals and have them as snacks, both of which may help you stave off (暂时挡住) Parkinson’s disease when combined with other dietary and lifestyle choices. Eat lots of fresh, raw vegetables. In addition to eating peppers, having fresh and raw vegetables at every meal may decrease your risk of developing Parkinson’s disease. This is because fresh vegetables contain the B vitamin folate (叶酸), which is also called folic acid. ____19____ Limit your iron intake. Eating iron is key to staying healthy. ____20____ Too much iron may put your body under oxidative stress, which is when your body releases toxic free radicals into your system.

The football team was practicing, the cheerleaders were cheering, and Josh was talking at me like he always did. “Derek, are you listening?” he asked. I nodded, but my mind was elsewhere. No one knew that I wanted to become an Olympic long jumper. My parents expected me to be a great doctor. They had sent me to a junior doctors’ camp until seventh grade. But secretly, I had dreamed of long jumping since I was a little boy. I knew my parents would be disappointed if I chose sports. Josh kept talking about his own plans to become a dancer. But I had a bigger problem. This year, we had to choose our career path. We had less than six months to decide where we were headed. I was good at long jumping. I had learned at school since my parents never put me in sports. My friend Delilah was on the junior long jumping team. After school, I stayed and practiced with her team just to see if this was what I truly wanted. When I ran fast with fierce determination and jumped like it was life or death, I breathed in the fresh air for a second. Then I charged toward the sand pit. Adrenaline (肾上腺素) ran through my body. My feet lifted up, my arms moved in the wind, and finally came the landing. That was what I wanted to do. I barely made it through math class that day. The choice between long jumping and being a doctor was troubling me too much. Then I came up with a plan. I would volunteer at the hospital as a doctor’s assistant and also sign up for the long jumping team tryouts. This way, I could see which path I preferred. My hands shaking, I signed up for the tryout and got the last volunteer spot in the hospital. But the first day was awful — busy, stressful, and messy. Mom said, “You were meant to be a doctor.” I smiled, but inside I wanted to tell her the truth. 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。 After four terrible weeks, I knew I didn’t want to become a doctor. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the competition, I warmed up and got ready. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
