So, let’s start reading and reporting from now on! Now, let me show you some useful reading tips. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Media literacy isn’t just a nice-to-have skill anymore - it’s essential. At its core, media literacy means understanding how media works - who created a message, why it was made, and how it’s meant to influence the audience. Students are constantly surrounded by messages: some are helpful, others misleading. Teaching them to analyze, question, and evaluate media gives them the tools to think critically and make informed choices. The good news? You can build media literacy into what you’re already doing, one step at a time. Use Headlines as Warm-Ups Start class with a real-world headline - ideally one related to your subject area. Ask students: ● Is this information reliable? ● Where did it come from? ● What might be missing? This five-minute routine builds awareness and can lead to great discussions. Compare Two Sources Pick two texts on the same topic but from different perspectives. This could be editorials, news articles, or video content. Ask students to compare: ● Language and tone. ● Choice of images. ● What facts are emphasized or ignored? This is a great way to teach bias (偏见) and point of view, especially in ELA or social studies. Build Visual Literacy Use political cartoons, advertisements, or photos to practise interpreting: ● What’s the message? ● How is it being communicated visually? ● Who benefits from this image? This kind of analysis helps students read beyond the text. This is about teaching students to be curious, and you just need to model curiosity. When you say, “Let’s figure out where this came from,” you’re demonstrating to students how to think critically. And when they see you do it regularly, they start doing it too. 21. What is the primary purpose of teaching media literacy to students? A. To arouse their interest in media. B. To enhance their literature skills. C. To develop their critical thinking ability. D. To broaden their general media knowledge. 22. Which technique of teaching media literacy is recommended? A. Using visual aids in teaching. B. Asking students to connect two sources. C. Providing materials that include pictures. D. Having students figure out better headlines. 23. How can teachers best stimulate students’ curiosity? A. Ask routine questions. B. Show, don’t just tell. C. Reward curious students. D. Tell, don’t just watch. 【答案】21. C 22. A 23. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文，主要阐述了媒介素养对学生的必要性，并介绍了将媒介素养融入教学的三种具体方法，同时强调教师示范好奇心对培养学生批判性思维的重要性。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Teaching them to analyze, question, and evaluate media gives them the tools to think critically and make informed choices.(教他们分析、质疑和评估媒体，为他们提供了批判性思考和做出明智选择的工具)”可知，教学生媒介素养的主要目的是培养他们的批判性思维能力。 故选C。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章三个教学方法板块可知，Use Headlines as Warm-Ups(用标题做热身)、Compare Two Sources(对比两个信息源)、Build Visual Literacy(培养视觉素养)均为推荐的教学技巧。其中Build Visual Literacy板块明确提到“Use political cartoons, advertisements, or photos to practise interpreting(使用政治漫画、广告或照片来练习解读)”，这属于在教学中使用视觉辅助工具。故选A。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“This is about teaching students to be curious, and you just need to model curiosity. When you say, “Let’s figure out where this came from,” you’re demonstrating to students how to think critically.(这是关于教学生保持好奇心，而你只需要示范好奇心。当你说“让我们弄清楚这来自哪里”时，你正在向学生展示如何进行批判性思考。)”可知，教师通过示范而非单纯说教来激发学生的好奇心，即“展示，而不只是说教”。 故选B。 B On a Saturday morning, I took my son to the Museum of Modern Art, eager to introduce him to the endless world of artistic expression. Yet, as we stood before a breathtaking painting, my son suddenly asked, “Dad, how much do you think this is worth?” The question caught me off guard. Instead of losing ourselves in the colors and shapes, we were pulled into a discussion of numbers. It was then that I became aware of how deeply we’ve fallen into the trap of quantification (量化). We measure everything: steps, calories, likes. Consider how we approach dining. Do we truly enjoy the flavors and the atmosphere? Or do we immediately take a photo for social media, checking how many likes it obtains, as if popularity could justify the experience? The simple pleasure of a meal has been reduced to restaurant ratings and social media engagement. One evening, as I put on my running shoes, I hesitated. My smartwatch would track my speed, my heart rate, and the distance. But what if I ran just to feel the wind against my skin? What if I moved for the pleasure of movement? So I left the device behind. For the first time in years, I ran unburdened by numbers. There was just my breath and the pounding of my feet on the road. It was liberating in a way I hadn’t anticipated. That experience has made me realize that quantification offers the comforting illusion (幻觉) that we can manage it when we’re afraid to face the unpredictable nature of life. Numbers can provide a false sense of security in a chaotic existence. We assume if we can track life, we can master it. But happiness, love and wonder can’t be quantified. In our obsession (痴迷) with measurement, we risk reducing our lives to data points, forgetting what makes them rich. Now, I resist reaching for the ruler. Life is not about keeping score but about being present wholeheartedly, without the constant need to prove our worth through numbers. Things that matter most can only be experienced. 24. Why did the author mention dining experiences in paragraph 2? A. To criticize people’s dining habits. B. To argue against the restaurant ratings. C. To explain technology’s role in dining. D. To show quantification’s impact on life. 25. What did the author discover after running without his smartwatch? A. He needed better running shoes. B. He felt an unexpected sense of freedom. C. He achieved better running performance. D. He missed the drive provided by numbers. 26. What makes people obsessed with quantification according to the author? A. The resistance to changes. B. The pressure of social recognition. C. The pursuit of true happiness. D. The desire for control of uncertainties. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Technology Reshapes Our Lives B. Precise Data is Vital for Happiness C. Stop Measuring and Start Living D. Capture Life’s Beauty with Cameras 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】文章作者通过带儿子参观现代艺术博物馆、外出就餐和跑步等生活经历，阐述了过度量化对生活的侵蚀，呼吁人们摆脱对数字的痴迷，全身心地活在当下，体验生活中无法被量化的美好。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Consider how we approach dining. Do we truly enjoy the flavors and the atmosphere? Or do we immediately take a photo for social media, checking how many likes it obtains, as if popularity could justify the experience? The simple pleasure of a meal has been reduced to restaurant ratings and social media engagement.(想想我们是如何就餐的。我们真的在享受味道和氛围吗？还是我们立刻拍照发到社交媒体，查看获得多少点赞，好像受欢迎程度就能证明这次体验的价值？一顿饭的简单乐趣已经被餐厅评分和社交媒体互动所取代)”可推知，作者提及就餐经历是为了具体展示量化思维如何渗透到日常生活中，影响我们对事物的真实体验。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“So I left the device behind. For the first time in years, I ran unburdened by numbers. There was just my breath and the pounding of my feet on the road. It was liberating in a way I hadn’t anticipated.(于是我放下了设备。多年来第一次，我摆脱了数字的束缚奔跑。只有我的呼吸和双脚在路面上的敲击声。这是一种我未曾预料到的解放感)”可知，作者在不戴智能手表跑步后，感受到了一种意想不到的、摆脱数字束缚的自由。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“That experience has made me realize that quantification offers the comforting illusion (幻觉) that we can manage it when we’re afraid to face the unpredictable nature of life. Numbers can provide a false sense of security in a chaotic existence. We assume if we can track life, we can master it.(那次经历让我意识到，当我们害怕面对生活的不可预测性时，量化提供了一种令人安慰的幻觉——以为我们可以掌控它。数字能在混乱的存在中提供虚假的安全感。我们以为如果能追踪生活，就能掌控它)”可知，人们痴迷于量化是因为渴望控制生活中的不确定性。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据最后一段“Now, I resist reaching for the ruler. Life is not about keeping score but about being present wholeheartedly, without the constant need to prove our worth through numbers. Things that matter most can only be experienced.(现在，我拒绝拿起尺子。生活不是为了记分，而是全心全意地活在当下，不需要不断通过数字来证明我们的价值。最重要的事情只能被体验)”可推知，文章主旨是呼吁人们停止过度测量和量化，转而真正投入生活、体验生活。由此可知，Stop Measuring and Start Living(停止测量，开始生活)最能概括全文主旨，适合作本文标题。 C What did you have for breakfast today? And how did you celebrate your last birthday? When you think back to these events, you’re using episodic memory (情景记忆) — the ability to recall personal experiences tied to specific times and places. But how does your brain keep these memories separate without mixing them up? Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, in the US believe this is thanks to a “memory reset button” in our brainstem (脑干). This small region, called the locus coeruleus (蓝斑核) , helps organize and separate our memories. In the study, 36 volunteers took part in a memory task. Lying in an MRI scanner (核磁共振扫描仪), they were shown a series of pictures of different objects. Meanwhile, several simple tones were played over and over again, first in one ear and then in the other with a different pitch (音调). The pitch change aimed to change the context (情境) and create an event boundary. According to a previous study by Kansas State University in the US, event boundaries help the brain organize episodic memory by changing our perception (感知) and attention. Ever walked into a room and suddenly forgot why? That’s an event boundary — entering or exiting a room — at work. After the experiment, scientists tested how well the volunteers could recall the order of the pictures. The result showed that it was harder to do when the series of pictures crossed an event boundary. This suggests that changes in sound made the brain store memories separately. What’s more, MRI scans showed that the locus coeruleus became highly active when event boundaries appeared, but not so much otherwise. Earlier research showed that the hippocampus (海马体), another brain region, helps shape episodic memory by both linking events close together in time and separating those further apart. But what tells the hippocampus when to change modes? MRI scans suggest that “the locus coeruleus may provide the critical ‘start’ signal to the hippocampus, as if saying, ‘Hey, we’re in a new event now’,” said Lila Davachi, one of the researchers. The new understanding could lead to better treatments for memory-related problems like Alzheimer’s disease, where the locus coeruleus is overactive. These conditions might be managed by calming the locus coeruleus through medication, slow breathing or even using stress balls. 28. How does the author introduce the research in the beginning? A. By sharing experiences. B. By raising questions. C. By imagining scenes. D. By explaining a theory. 29. What was the purpose of playing tones with different pitches in the experiment? A. To create real-life situations. B. To test volunteers’ hearing ability. C. To mark a shift to a new context. D. To increase the difficulty of the task. 30. What did the MRI scans reveal about the locus coeruleus during the experiment? A. It showed higher activity at event boundaries. B. It sent signals to the hippocampus regularly. C. It controlled volunteers’ memory recall order. D. It helped link pictures to specific sounds. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The difficulty of treating memory-related disease. B. The potential applications of the research findings. C. The drawbacks of the small-scale experiment. D. The future research directions for memory. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。介绍了美国加利福尼亚大学洛杉矶分校的科学家关于大脑如何区分情景记忆的研究，揭示了蓝斑核的作用。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“What did you have for breakfast today? And how did you celebrate your last birthday? When you think back to these events, you’re using episodic memory (情景记忆) — the ability to recall personal experiences tied to specific times and places. But how does your brain keep these memories separate without mixing them up? (你今天早餐吃了什么？你上一个生日是怎么过的？当你回想这些事件时，你正在使用情景记忆——回忆与特定时间和地点相关的个人经历的能力。但是你的大脑是如何将这些记忆分开而不混淆的呢)”可知，作者以“What did you have for breakfast today? And how didyou celebrate your last birthday?”两个问题引出“情景记忆”的概念，再通过核心问题“But how does your brain keep these memories separate without mixing them up?”引出后续的研究内容。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段最后一句“The pitch change aimed to change the context (情境) and create an event boundary. (音调变化的目的是改变情境并创造一个事件边界)”可知，在实验中播放不同音调的声音是为了标志着向新情境的转变。故选C项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“MRI scans showed that the locus coeruleus became highly active when event boundaries appeared, but not so much otherwise. (核磁共振扫描显示，当事件边界出现时，蓝斑核活跃度显著升高，反之则不高)”可知，蓝斑核活跃度在事件边界时活跃度更高。故选A项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The new understanding could lead to better treatments for memory-related problems like Alzheimer’s disease, where the locus coeruleus is overactive. These conditions might be managed by calming the locus coeruleus through medication, slow breathing or even using stress balls. (这一新认知可能为阿尔茨海默病等记忆相关问题带来更好的治疗方法，在那里蓝斑过度活跃。这些疾病可以通过药物、缓慢呼吸甚至减压球来平复蓝斑核)”可知，最后一段围绕研究发现的潜在应用(治疗记忆疾病)展开。B选项“研究发现的潜在应用”符合段落中“为治疗记忆疾病提供思路”的核心内容。故选B项。 D What’s the point of studying the humanities (人文学科)? This question has been popping up on social media a lot, especially with the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek. As a Malay language teacher at a university in Nanning, Guangxi, I would like to share my thoughts. My presence here as a foreign expert shows that China remains committed to supporting the humanities, even amid reports of some universities reducing student intakes (招生人数) in these fields. Regarding the claim that the humanities offer “limited job prospects”, I must ask: Have we explored all possibilities? From my teaching experience, the humanities provide rich opportunities across a wide range of industries. The challenge is that students often lack the creativity to translate their academic background into a career path. For instance, most linguistics (语言学) majors automatically think of becoming teachers or translators. Rarely do they consider roles such as voice app actors, computational linguists, user experience researchers, content strategists and social media analysts. Studies have highlighted the significant value of humanities graduates. For example, a 2023 report from the UK’s Higher Education Policy Institute found a strong correlation between the skills of humanities graduates and those demanded by employers across industries. Eight of the ten fastest-growing sectors in the UK are now hiring more humanities graduates than those from any other field. This demonstrates the unique qualities that humanities graduates bring to industries, which cannot be directly compared to the skills of those in fields of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). Humanities graduates tend to be more open-minded, generalist (多面手的) in their approach, and adaptable. These strengths should not be underestimated. Furthermore, the 2023 Future of Jobs Report by the World Economic Forum highlighted critical and creative thinking as essential skills for success in the present and future workplace. Coincidentally, these skills are central to humanities education. Supporting this, a US study published in July in the Journal of the American Philosophical Association found that philosophy students outperformed their STEM counterparts in logic tests. Therefore, we must not underestimate the importance of the humanities in adding color to a world that is not merely black and white. Throughout history, the humanities have played an important role in shaping civilized human beings. Ultimately, the humanities give meaning to life and prevent us from becoming like robots and machines. 32. What is the author’s main argument in the passage? A. Humanities graduates face more career options. B. Humanities education remains highly valuable. C. STEM fields offer better job opportunities. D. AI tools pose a threat to humanities studies. 33. What problem do humanities students often have, according to the author? A. They lack creativity in career planning. B. They perform poorly in logical thinking. C. They overlook fast-growing industries. D. They are underestimated by employers. 34. What does the 2023 report from the UK’s Higher Education Policy Institute show? A. STEM graduates are less popular in the UK. B. Employers prefer graduates with soft skills. C. Humanities graduates have fewer job opportunities. D. There is strong demand for humanities graduates’ skills. 35. What does the underlined word “outperformed” in Paragraph 6 probably mean? A. Fell behind. B. Competed with. C. Collaborated with. D. Did better than. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了一位大学教师反驳人文学科就业前景有限的观点，论证其在当今社会仍具有重要价值。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Therefore, we must not underestimate the importance of the humanities in adding color to a world that is not merely black and white.(因此，我们绝不能低估人文学科为这个并非非黑即白的世界增添色彩的重要性)”以及“Ultimately, the humanities give meaning to life and prevent us from becoming like robots and machines.(最终，人文学科赋予生命以意义，防止我们变得像机器人和机器一样)”可知，作者的核心论点是人文学科教育仍然具有极高的价值，全文围绕反驳“人文学科就业前景有限”展开论证。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The challenge is that students often lack the creativity to translate their academic background into a career path.(挑战在于学生们往往缺乏将自己的学术背景转化为职业道路的创造力)”可知，作者认为人文学科学生的主要问题是在职业规划方面缺乏创造力。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“For example, a 2023 report from the UK's Higher Education Policy Institute found a strong correlation between the skills of humanities graduates and those demanded by employers across industries.(例如，英国高等教育政策研究所2023年的一份报告发现，人文学科毕业生的技能与各行各业雇主所要求的技能之间存在很强的相关性)”可知，该报告表明市场对人文学科毕业生的技能有强烈需求。 【35题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段中“Furthermore, the 2023 Future of Jobs Report by the World Economic Forum highlighted critical and creative thinking as essential skills for success in the present and future workplace. Coincidentally, these skills are central to humanities education.(此外，世界经济论坛发布的《2023 年未来就业报告》强调，批判性思维与创造性思维是当下及未来职场中取得成功的必备技能。巧合的是，这些能力正是人文教育的核心）可知，为了佐证这一点，7月发表在《美国哲学协会杂志》上的一项美国研究发现，哲学专业的学生在逻辑测试中表现优于STEM专业的学生，所以outperformed意为“表现优于”，与did better than同义。 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。 People often hunt for new and interesting information — we are curious by nature. Curiosity drives us to learn, explore and follow our passions. It’s triggered (触发) when we notice a gap in our knowledge and feel motivated to close it. ____36____. As we age, curiosity may fade for things we don’t care about, but keeping it alive is important. Studies suggest that curiosity can help stimulate the brain and may even protect against diseases like Alzheimer’s by encouraging the growth of new brain cells. Curiosity comes in two forms: trait and state curiosity. Trait curiosity is a personality feature. ____37____ State curiosity, on the other hand, is a temporary spark of interest we feel in a given moment. For example, you might feel curious when you come across a trivia question like: What was the first country to grant women the right to vote? ____38____. Some may feel a strong urge to find the answer immediately (it’s New Zealand in 1893). A recent study tested over 1,000 adults aged 20 to 84 to explore how these two types of curiosity change over time. Participants rated their interest in learning the answers to trivia questions to measure state curiosity, and completed a short survey to measure trait curiosity. ____39____ — it was highest among people in their 20s and dropped gradually after that. State curiosity, however, told a different story: It dipped in midlife but rose again in older adulthood. This means that even as people age, they can still feel genuine excitement when something truly interests them. Curiosity keeps the brain active, encourages social connection and fuels lifelong learning. But it can be a double-edged sword-online clickbait or scams (骗局) can turn curiosity against us. ____40____. A. That drive keeps our brains active B. The key is to stay curious, but also stay smart C. That’s what makes curiosity such a powerful feeling D. The same question can make others lose interest quickly E. It describes people who naturally love exploring and learning F. Results showed that trait curiosity generally declined with age G. Such questions can trigger a brief burst of curiosity, depending on the person 【答案】36. A 37. E 38. G 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】文章系统介绍了好奇心的科学内涵、类型划分与发展特征。 【36题详解】 空格前“Curiosity drives us to learn, explore and follow our passions. It’s triggered (触发) when we notice a gap in our knowledge and feel motivated to close it.(好奇心驱使我们学习、探索并追随我们的激情。当我们注意到我们的知识中存在差距并有动力去弥补它时，它就会被触发)”提到好奇心源于“填补知识缺口的动力”，A选项“That drive keeps our brains active (这种驱动力使我们的大脑保持活跃)”中的“That drive”正好指代这一动力，既解释了好奇心的内在作用(激活大脑)，又能自然引出后文“保持好奇心能预防疾病”的结论，完美衔接上下文。 【37题详解】 空格前“Curiosity comes in two forms: trait and state curiosity. Trait curiosity is a personality feature. (好奇心有两种形式：特质好奇心和状态好奇心。特质好奇心是一种人格特征。)”定义了特质好奇心是人格特征，空格后开始介绍状态好奇心。E选项“It describes people who naturally love exploring and learning. (它描述的是那些天生喜欢探索和学习的人。)”中的“It”指代前文的“trait curiosity”，进一步解释了特质好奇心的具体表现，与前文“人格特征”的定义形成呼应，清晰区分了两种好奇心的不同属性。 【38题详解】 空格前“For example, you might feel curious when you come across a trivia question like: What was the first country to grant women the right to vote? (例如，当你遇到一个小知识问题时，你可能会感到好奇：第一个赋予女性选举权的国家是哪个？)”举例说明状态好奇心的触发场景，空格后“Some may feel a strong urge to find the answer immediately (it’s New Zealand in 1893). (有些人可能会强烈渴望立即找到答案 (1893年的新西兰)。)”提到不同人对同一问题的反应不同。G选项“Such questions can trigger a brief burst of curiosity, depending on the person. (这类问题会引发短暂的好奇心，具体因人而异。)”中的“Such questions”指代前文的trivia question，既解释了状态好奇心的“短暂性”，又引出后文“不同人反应不同”的现象，完美衔接了举例与后续分析。 【39题详解】 空格前介绍了研究的测试方法，空格后“— it was highest among people in their 20s and dropped gradually after that. (——在20多岁的人群中最高，之后逐渐下降。)”描述了一种随年龄变化的趋势。F选项“Results showed that trait curiosity generally declined with age. (结果显示，特质好奇心通常会随着年龄增长而下降。)”中的“Results showed”承接了前文的研究，“declined with age”正好对应后文“20多岁最高，之后下降”的描述，完美引出研究结果。 【40题详解】 空格前“Curiosity keeps the brain active, encourages social connection and fuels lifelong learning. But it can be a double-edged sword-online clickbait or scams (骗局) can turn curiosity against us. (好奇心让大脑保持活跃，促进社交联系，推动终身学习。但它也是一把双刃剑——网络标题党或骗局会利用好奇心来对付我们。)”既提到好奇心的好处，又指出其潜在风险，空格后无内容。B选项“The key is to stay curious, but also stay smart. (关键是保持好奇心，但也要保持明智。)”既承接了前文“双刃剑”的辩证观点，又给出了平衡好奇心与风险的解决方案，完美总结了全文的核心态度。 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。 Dr. James Leong is an eye doctor in Wellington.

You probably know the entire play off by heart. You are the best person for Cinderella.” he encouraged. I knew he was joking, but the truth was, I could tell you every single line (台词) in the play. When we reached the hall on Thursday, I began to wish I hadn’t signed up to be Cinderella. It was easier to feel hopeful several days ago when my name was the only one on the sign-up sheet. Since then, seven other girls have added their own names to the list, including Sherry Anderson, the head cheerleader (拉拉队长). Luckily, we were given a moment to practice before the auditions began. “Good,” Mr Cordoza said approvingly as he stopped by and listened to my practice. I felt a glimmer of hope. “Now let’s see how you get on performing on the stage in front of everyone.” He clapped his hands for attention, signaling the start of the auditions. Sherry Anderson was up first. She showed great confidence as she tossed her long blonde hair and recited her lines. Although she lacked an understanding of the lines, her performance was attractive. Then it was my turn. As I climbed the stairs to the stage, I tripped, nearly falling flat on my face. I felt my cheeks burning. “When you’re ready,” Mr Cordoza said, sounding impatient. “Sorry,” I mumbled. I tried to calm my breathing, but the nerves tightened in my throat. “I...I…” I stuttered. ‘Speak up Amy, can’t hear you!’ jeers and whistles came from the back of the hall. I could feel that my performance was a disaster. Even Sherry’s lines were better than mine. Finally, I limped to the end of the scene, and as soon as it was over, I rushed off the stage, feeling defeated. As I made my way through the hallway, I spotted Artie waiting for me. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式作答。 He told me that Sherry got the role of Cinderella but I would be the understudy (替角). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the performance, Sherry got sick and couldn’t come. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】He told me that Sherry got the role of Cinderella but I would be the understudy (替角). At the news, I sighed and forced a smile. Sensing my disappointment, Artie put his hand on my shoulder and encouraged, “Seize the chance and you can shine too. Believe in yourself!” His words giving me a burst of confidence, I nodded admittedly, determined to be the best understudy. In the following days, I spent hours every day rehearsing my lines, perfecting my expressions and practicing each act. Gradually, I grew more confident and was fully prepared for the possibility of stepping onto the stage if needed. On the day of the performance, Sherry got sick and couldn’t come. Panic filled the air backstage. Calm outside but nervous inside, I took a deep breath and stepped forward. All those days of hard work and preparation had led to this moment. As the curtains rose, I walked onto the stage with a newfound courage. The lights shone on me, and I delivered my lines with full of passion and confidence. With the music fading away, the audience broke into thunderous applause. At that very moment, I knew I fulfilled my mission as an understudy. That day, I became the star of the show, proving to myself and everyone that chances are for those who are prepared. 【解析】 【导语】文章以人物为线索展开，讲述了主人公艾米在朋友的鼓励下参加学校话剧《灰姑娘》试镜的经历。尽管艾米对台词非常熟悉，但在试镜当天，她感到非常紧张，甚至在上台时差点摔倒，表演时结结巴巴，感觉自己的表现非常糟糕。文章通过艾米的试镜经历，展现了她在面对挑战时的内心挣扎和不安，以及她最终未能克服紧张情绪，感到失落和挫败的心情。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“他告诉我Sherry得到了灰姑娘的角色，但我会是替补演员。”可知，第一段可描写Amy在Artie的鼓励下，努力练习，尽管是替补演员也努力做好表演的准备的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“演出的那天，Sherry生病了，不能来。”可知，第二段可描写Amy顺利完成表演的过程以及感悟。 2.续写线索：感到失望——Artie鼓励——努力排练——表演成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 决心做某事：be determined to do sth/make up one’s mind to do sth 为……做准备：be prepared for/get ready for 鼓励：encourage/inspire 情绪类 紧张的：nervous/tense 失望：disappointment/despair 【点睛】[高分句型1]Gradually, I grew more confident and was fully prepared for the possibility of stepping onto the stage if needed.（运用了状语从句的省略） [高分句型2]That day, I became the star of the show, proving to myself and everyone that chances are for those who are prepared.（运用了现在分词作状语，that引导宾语从句，who引导定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 曲靖一中2026届高三年级教学质量检测（七） 英语试卷 注意事项： 1．答卷前，务必用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号和座位号填写在答题卡上。 2．作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案，答在试卷上无效。 3．非选择题必须用黑色字迹钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案。 4．本试卷满分150分。考试用时120分钟。 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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 What did the man do on the weekend?

At its core, media literacy means understanding how media works - who created a message, why it was made, and how it’s meant to influence the audience. Students are constantly surrounded by messages: some are helpful, others misleading. Teaching them to analyze, question, and evaluate media gives them the tools to think critically and make informed choices. The good news? You can build media literacy into what you’re already doing, one step at a time. Use Headlines as Warm-Ups Start class with a real-world headline - ideally one related to your subject area. Ask students: ● Is this information reliable? ● Where did it come from? ● What might be missing? This five-minute routine builds awareness and can lead to great discussions. Compare Two Sources Pick two texts on the same topic but from different perspectives. This could be editorials, news articles, or video content. Ask students to compare: ● Language and tone. ● Choice of images. ● What facts are emphasized or ignored? This is a great way to teach bias (偏见) and point of view, especially in ELA or social studies. Build Visual Literacy Use political cartoons, advertisements, or photos to practise interpreting: ● What’s the message? ● How is it being communicated visually? ● Who benefits from this image? This kind of analysis helps students read beyond the text. This is about teaching students to be curious, and you just need to model curiosity. When you say, “Let’s figure out where this came from,” you’re demonstrating to students how to think critically. And when they see you do it regularly, they start doing it too. 21. What is the primary purpose of teaching media literacy to students? A. To arouse their interest in media. B. To enhance their literature skills. C. To develop their critical thinking ability. D. To broaden their general media knowledge. 22. Which technique of teaching media literacy is recommended? A. Using visual aids in teaching. B. Asking students to connect two sources. C. Providing materials that include pictures. D. Having students figure out better headlines. 23. How can teachers best stimulate students’ curiosity? A. Ask routine questions. B. Show, don’t just tell. C. Reward curious students. D. Tell, don’t just watch. B On a Saturday morning, I took my son to the Museum of Modern Art, eager to introduce him to the endless world of artistic expression. Yet, as we stood before a breathtaking painting, my son suddenly asked, “Dad, how much do you think this is worth?” The question caught me off guard. Instead of losing ourselves in the colors and shapes, we were pulled into a discussion of numbers. It was then that I became aware of how deeply we’ve fallen into the trap of quantification (量化). We measure everything: steps, calories, likes. Consider how we approach dining. Do we truly enjoy the flavors and the atmosphere? Or do we immediately take a photo for social media, checking how many likes it obtains, as if popularity could justify the experience? The simple pleasure of a meal has been reduced to restaurant ratings and social media engagement. One evening, as I put on my running shoes, I hesitated. My smartwatch would track my speed, my heart rate, and the distance. But what if I ran just to feel the wind against my skin? What if I moved for the pleasure of movement? So I left the device behind. For the first time in years, I ran unburdened by numbers. There was just my breath and the pounding of my feet on the road. It was liberating in a way I hadn’t anticipated. That experience has made me realize that quantification offers the comforting illusion (幻觉) that we can manage it when we’re afraid to face the unpredictable nature of life. Numbers can provide a false sense of security in a chaotic existence. We assume if we can track life, we can master it. But happiness, love and wonder can’t be quantified. In our obsession (痴迷) with measurement, we risk reducing our lives to data points, forgetting what makes them rich. Now, I resist reaching for the ruler. Life is not about keeping score but about being present wholeheartedly, without the constant need to prove our worth through numbers. Things that matter most can only be experienced. 24. Why did the author mention dining experiences in paragraph 2? A. To criticize people’s dining habits. B. To argue against the restaurant ratings. C. To explain technology’s role in dining. D. To show quantification’s impact on life. 25. What did the author discover after running without his smartwatch? A. He needed better running shoes. B. He felt an unexpected sense of freedom. C. He achieved better running performance. D. He missed the drive provided by numbers. 26. What makes people obsessed with quantification according to the author? A. The resistance to changes. B. The pressure of social recognition. C. The pursuit of true happiness. D. The desire for control of uncertainties. 27. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Technology Reshapes Our Lives B. Precise Data is Vital for Happiness C. Stop Measuring and Start Living D. Capture Life’s Beauty with Cameras C What did you have for breakfast today? And how did you celebrate your last birthday? When you think back to these events, you’re using episodic memory (情景记忆) — the ability to recall personal experiences tied to specific times and places. But how does your brain keep these memories separate without mixing them up? Scientists at the University of California, Los Angeles, in the US believe this is thanks to a “memory reset button” in our brainstem (脑干). This small region, called the locus coeruleus (蓝斑核) , helps organize and separate our memories. In the study, 36 volunteers took part in a memory task. Lying in an MRI scanner (核磁共振扫描仪), they were shown a series of pictures of different objects. Meanwhile, several simple tones were played over and over again, first in one ear and then in the other with a different pitch (音调). The pitch change aimed to change the context (情境) and create an event boundary. According to a previous study by Kansas State University in the US, event boundaries help the brain organize episodic memory by changing our perception (感知) and attention. Ever walked into a room and suddenly forgot why? That’s an event boundary — entering or exiting a room — at work. After the experiment, scientists tested how well the volunteers could recall the order of the pictures. The result showed that it was harder to do when the series of pictures crossed an event boundary. This suggests that changes in sound made the brain store memories separately. What’s more, MRI scans showed that the locus coeruleus became highly active when event boundaries appeared, but not so much otherwise. Earlier research showed that the hippocampus (海马体), another brain region, helps shape episodic memory by both linking events close together in time and separating those further apart. But what tells the hippocampus when to change modes? MRI scans suggest that “the locus coeruleus may provide the critical ‘start’ signal to the hippocampus, as if saying, ‘Hey, we’re in a new event now’,” said Lila Davachi, one of the researchers. The new understanding could lead to better treatments for memory-related problems like Alzheimer’s disease, where the locus coeruleus is overactive. These conditions might be managed by calming the locus coeruleus through medication, slow breathing or even using stress balls. 28. How does the author introduce the research in the beginning? A. By sharing experiences. B. By raising questions. C. By imagining scenes. D. By explaining a theory. 29. What was the purpose of playing tones with different pitches in the experiment? A. To create real-life situations. B. To test volunteers’ hearing ability. C. To mark a shift to a new context. D. To increase the difficulty of the task. 30. What did the MRI scans reveal about the locus coeruleus during the experiment? A. It showed higher activity at event boundaries. B. It sent signals to the hippocampus regularly. C. It controlled volunteers’ memory recall order. D. It helped link pictures to specific sounds. 31. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The difficulty of treating memory-related disease. B. The potential applications of the research findings. C. The drawbacks of the small-scale experiment. D. The future research directions for memory. D What’s the point of studying the humanities (人文学科)? This question has been popping up on social media a lot, especially with the rise of AI tools like ChatGPT and DeepSeek. As a Malay language teacher at a university in Nanning, Guangxi, I would like to share my thoughts. My presence here as a foreign expert shows that China remains committed to supporting the humanities, even amid reports of some universities reducing student intakes (招生人数) in these fields. Regarding the claim that the humanities offer “limited job prospects”, I must ask: Have we explored all possibilities? From my teaching experience, the humanities provide rich opportunities across a wide range of industries. The challenge is that students often lack the creativity to translate their academic background into a career path. For instance, most linguistics (语言学) majors automatically think of becoming teachers or translators. Rarely do they consider roles such as voice app actors, computational linguists, user experience researchers, content strategists and social media analysts. Studies have highlighted the significant value of humanities graduates. For example, a 2023 report from the UK’s Higher Education Policy Institute found a strong correlation between the skills of humanities graduates and those demanded by employers across industries. Eight of the ten fastest-growing sectors in the UK are now hiring more humanities graduates than those from any other field. This demonstrates the unique qualities that humanities graduates bring to industries, which cannot be directly compared to the skills of those in fields of STEM (science, technology, engineering and math). Humanities graduates tend to be more open-minded, generalist (多面手的) in their approach, and adaptable. These strengths should not be underestimated. Furthermore, the 2023 Future of Jobs Report by the World Economic Forum highlighted critical and creative thinking as essential skills for success in the present and future workplace. Coincidentally, these skills are central to humanities education. Supporting this, a US study published in July in the Journal of the American Philosophical Association found that philosophy students outperformed their STEM counterparts in logic tests. Therefore, we must not underestimate the importance of the humanities in adding color to a world that is not merely black and white. Throughout history, the humanities have played an important role in shaping civilized human beings. Ultimately, the humanities give meaning to life and prevent us from becoming like robots and machines. 32. What is the author’s main argument in the passage? A. Humanities graduates face more career options. B. Humanities education remains highly valuable. C. STEM fields offer better job opportunities. D. AI tools pose a threat to humanities studies. 33. What problem do humanities students often have, according to the author? A. They lack creativity in career planning. B. They perform poorly in logical thinking. C. They overlook fast-growing industries. D. They are underestimated by employers. 34. What does the 2023 report from the UK’s Higher Education Policy Institute show? A. STEM graduates are less popular in the UK. B. Employers prefer graduates with soft skills. C. Humanities graduates have fewer job opportunities. D. There is strong demand for humanities graduates’ skills. 35. What does the underlined word “outperformed” in Paragraph 6 probably mean? A. Fell behind. B. Competed with. C. Collaborated with. D. Did better than. 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。 People often hunt for new and interesting information — we are curious by nature. Curiosity drives us to learn, explore and follow our passions. It’s triggered (触发) when we notice a gap in our knowledge and feel motivated to close it. ____36____. As we age, curiosity may fade for things we don’t care about, but keeping it alive is important. Studies suggest that curiosity can help stimulate the brain and may even protect against diseases like Alzheimer’s by encouraging the growth of new brain cells. Curiosity comes in two forms: trait and state curiosity. Trait curiosity is a personality feature. ____37____ State curiosity, on the other hand, is a temporary spark of interest we feel in a given moment. For example, you might feel curious when you come across a trivia question like: What was the first country to grant women the right to vote? ____38____. Some may feel a strong urge to find the answer immediately (it’s New Zealand in 1893). A recent study tested over 1,000 adults aged 20 to 84 to explore how these two types of curiosity change over time. Participants rated their interest in learning the answers to trivia questions to measure state curiosity, and completed a short survey to measure trait curiosity. ____39____ — it was highest among people in their 20s and dropped gradually after that. State curiosity, however, told a different story: It dipped in midlife but rose again in older adulthood. This means that even as people age, they can still feel genuine excitement when something truly interests them. Curiosity keeps the brain active, encourages social connection and fuels lifelong learning. But it can be a double-edged sword-online clickbait or scams (骗局) can turn curiosity against us. ____40____. A. That drive keeps our brains active B. The key is to stay curious, but also stay smart C. That’s what makes curiosity such a powerful feeling D. The same question can make others lose interest quickly E. It describes people who naturally love exploring and learning F. Results showed that trait curiosity generally declined with age G. Such questions can trigger a brief burst of curiosity, depending on the person 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。 Dr. James Leong is an eye doctor in Wellington.

You probably know the entire play off by heart. You are the best person for Cinderella.” he encouraged. I knew he was joking, but the truth was, I could tell you every single line (台词) in the play. When we reached the hall on Thursday, I began to wish I hadn’t signed up to be Cinderella. It was easier to feel hopeful several days ago when my name was the only one on the sign-up sheet. Since then, seven other girls have added their own names to the list, including Sherry Anderson, the head cheerleader (拉拉队长). Luckily, we were given a moment to practice before the auditions began. “Good,” Mr Cordoza said approvingly as he stopped by and listened to my practice. I felt a glimmer of hope. “Now let’s see how you get on performing on the stage in front of everyone.” He clapped his hands for attention, signaling the start of the auditions. Sherry Anderson was up first. She showed great confidence as she tossed her long blonde hair and recited her lines. Although she lacked an understanding of the lines, her performance was attractive. Then it was my turn. As I climbed the stairs to the stage, I tripped, nearly falling flat on my face. I felt my cheeks burning. “When you’re ready,” Mr Cordoza said, sounding impatient. “Sorry,” I mumbled. I tried to calm my breathing, but the nerves tightened in my throat. “I...I…” I stuttered. ‘Speak up Amy, can’t hear you!’ jeers and whistles came from the back of the hall. I could feel that my performance was a disaster. Even Sherry’s lines were better than mine. Finally, I limped to the end of the scene, and as soon as it was over, I rushed off the stage, feeling defeated. As I made my way through the hallway, I spotted Artie waiting for me. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式作答。 He told me that Sherry got the role of Cinderella but I would be the understudy (替角). ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the day of the performance, Sherry got sick and couldn’t come. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
