I didn’t expect a brief encounter with a little fox to change my view of the wild world forever. On a cold misty morning, I was patrolling the woodland trail when I caught sight of a small red fox. It was sitting quietly beside an old pine tree, staring at me with bright round eyes. Instead of running away immediately as most wild animals did, it tilted its head curiously, as if studying a stranger. I froze, holding my breath, afraid that any small movement would scare it off. Slowly, I lowered my body and kept still. Minutes passed gently. To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me. Its fur shone softly in the weak sunlight filtering through the leaves. I could even notice the tiny white spots on its tail. It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear. At that moment, all my worries and tiredness melted into the quietness of the forest. Before long, a soft call came from the distant bushes. The fox turned its head, then glanced back at me once more. It waved its tail lightly and ran off into the woods, disappearing among the fallen leaves. I stood there for a long time, filled with warmth and amazement. Nature is not merely a landscape we admire from afar. It is a world full of gentle lives. That short meeting taught me that respect and silence are the best bridges between humans and wild creatures. We live together on the same earth, and peaceful coexistence is the most precious gift we can share. 4. Why did the author go to the forest reserve? A. To research wild animals. B. To get away from urban pressure. C. To learn to survive in the wild. D. To take photos of natural scenery. 5. What surprised the author about the little fox? A. It had special white tail fur. B.

Instead of running away immediately as most wild animals did, it tilted its head curiously, as if studying a stranger.(它静静地坐在一棵老松树下，用明亮的圆眼睛盯着我。它没有像大多数野生动物那样立刻逃跑，而是好奇地歪着头，仿佛在研究一个陌生人)”、第三段中的“To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me.(令我惊讶的是，这只狐狸小心翼翼地向我走了几步)”以及“It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear.(它停在几米远的地方，毫无畏惧地看着我)”可知，令作者惊讶的是，这只小狐狸没有像其他野生动物那样害怕人类，反而主动靠近、毫无畏惧地观察作者。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me. Its fur shone softly in the weak sunlight filtering through the leaves. I could even notice the tiny white spots on its tail. It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear. At that moment, all my worries and tiredness melted into the quietness of the forest.(令我惊讶的是，那只狐狸小心翼翼地向我走了几步。它的皮毛在透过树叶的微弱阳光下微微发亮。我甚至能注意到它尾巴上小小的白点。它停在仅几米远的地方，毫无畏惧地看着我。在那一刻，我所有的烦恼和疲惫都融入了森林的寂静之中)”和第四段“Before long, a soft call came from the distant bushes. The fox turned its head, then glanced back at me once more. It waved its tail lightly and ran off into the woods, disappearing among the fallen leaves. I stood there for a long time, filled with warmth and amazement.(不久，远处的灌木丛中传来一声轻柔的呼唤。狐狸转过头，又回头看了我一眼。它轻轻摇了摇尾巴，跑进了树林里，消失在落叶之中。我在那里站了很久，心中充满了温暖与惊讶。)”可知，是小狐狸温柔且主动靠近、告别时的互动，让作者感到温暖和惊讶。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Nature is not merely a landscape we admire from afar.

Most wild species are known to have narrow eye color ranges, usually black, brown, or yellow. Eye colors’ evolution is hard to track. Fossils don’t preserve it; preserved samples have artificial eyes; most books illustrate only one example per species. Now, scientists have used abundant online photographs of wild cats to chart the transition from brown eyes to colors such as green and blue — and found something of a gray area. Any animal’s eye color is determined by its levels of two melanin pigments (黑色素) — eumelanin, which makes brown-black, and pheomelanin, which makes red-yellow. Eye colors vary according to the amounts of each, with different combinations leading to colors such as blue, green, and gray. Scientists, Tabin and Katherine, used a process called ancestral state reconstruction to determine the eye colors of extinct wild cat species based on those of their living descendants. They examined the clearest images submitted to the database iNaturalist, then classified each cat’s eye color, and mapped the data to the cat family tree, using an algorithm (算法) to find each common ancestor’s possible eye colors. The algorithm accounted for the likelihood of certain changes and figured in the time since species separated in order to generate the likeliest colors at every split. “It’s a way we can actually look into the eyes of the wild cat’s ancestor,” Tabin says. “The ancestor developed gray eyes, and then the eye color diversity just exploded.” Once an eye with moderate amounts of both eumelanin and pheomelanin appeared (producing gray eyes), blue and green were not far behind. The scientists next tried to connect the discovered eye colors with numerous factors, including habitat, fur color, and hunting behavior, to help explain why those shades had evolved. But they found little correlation. “Siberian dogs have those bright blue eyes because we wanted them to and bred them accordingly, but in wild cats, I have no idea what’s going on here,” Tabin says. Perhaps cats prefer particular eye colors in mates — but it would be challenging to test. 8. Why do wild cats’ eye colors puzzle researchers? A. Their diversity contradicts expected patterns. B. Fossils cannot preserve eye color information. C. Too many species exist to compare effectively. D. Lighting conditions alter colors in online photos. 9. How did the scientists conduct their study on wild cats’ eye colors? A. By observing fossil records of extinct cats. B. By analyzing photos from an online database. C. By examining melanin pigments in living cats. D. By studying artificial eyes of preserved samples. 10. What can we learn about the evolution of wild cats’ eye colors from Tabin’s words? A. Extinct cats had only one eye color type. B. Gray eyes led to different eye colors later. C. Blue and green eyes appeared before gray eyes. D. Gray eyes came from high melanin pigment amounts. 11. How does Tabin feel about the evolution of wild cats’ eye colors? A. Pleased. B. Relieved. C. Frightened. D. Confused. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学家通过研究野生猫科动物的眼睛颜色，发现其祖先最先演化出灰色眼睛，随后眼睛颜色变得多样化，且目前尚未找到眼睛颜色演化与环境、习性等因素的关联。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Wild cats showcase a surprising diversity of eye colors, proving a mystery for researchers. Most wild species are known to have narrow eye color ranges, usually black, brown, or yellow.(野生猫科动物展现出惊人的眼睛颜色多样性，这对研究人员来说是个谜。大多数野生动物的眼睛颜色范围很窄，通常是黑色、棕色或黄色。)”可知，野生猫科动物眼睛颜色的多样性与预期的模式相悖，因此让研究者感到困惑。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They examined the clearest images submitted to the database iNaturalist, then classified each cat’s eye color, and mapped the data to the cat family tree.(他们查看了提交到iNaturalist数据库中最清晰的图片，然后对每只猫的眼睛颜色进行分类，并将数据映射到猫科动物的进化树上。)”可知，科学家通过分析在线数据库中的照片开展研究。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“‘It’s a way we can actually look into the eyes of the wild cat’s ancestor,’ Tabin says. ‘The ancestor developed gray eyes, and then the eye color diversity just exploded.’(‘这是一种我们真正能够窥见野生猫科动物祖先眼睛的方式，’塔宾说，‘祖先演化出了灰色眼睛，之后眼睛颜色的多样性就爆发了。’)”可知，灰色眼睛之后催生了多种多样的眼睛颜色。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“‘Siberian dogs have those bright blue eyes because we wanted them to and bred them accordingly, but in wild cats, I have no idea what’s going on here,’ Tabin says.(‘西伯利亚犬拥有明亮的蓝眼睛是因为人类刻意选育，但对于野生猫科动物，我完全不知道背后的原因。’塔宾说。)”可知，塔宾对野生猫科动物眼睛颜色的演化感到困惑。故选D。 D Nowadays, teenagers’ social lives have grown online. While social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok offer new ways to connect, they also bring challenges to the development of social skills. Face-to-face communication requires the ability to “read” a conversation in real-time. You notice body language, tone of voice, and immediate reactions. These non-verbal (非言语的) signals are largely absent in text-based communication. As a result, heavy social media users might find it harder to hold a conversation in person or understand these social signals. Besides, the pressure to present a perfect life online can cause anxiety. Teens may feel they are in constant competition with their peers, leading to lower self-esteem (自尊). The term “FOMO” (Fear Of Missing Out) describes the anxiety that comes from seeing others post about exciting events you weren’t invited to. However, it’s not all negative. Social media can help shy people build confidence by allowing them to communicate at their own speed. It also helps keep long-distance friendships. The key is balance. Experts suggest that parents and educators should guide teens to use these tools positively. Encouraging offline activities, setting time limits, and having open conversations about online experiences are important steps. The goal is not to remove technology from their lives, but to teach them to use it in a way that supports, rather than hinders, their real-world social development. 12. What is the main disadvantage of text-based communication mentioned in the passage? A. It is not private enough. B. It doesn’t need social skills. C. It has hardly any non-verbal signals. D. It causes misunderstandings. 13. What does “FOMO” cause among teenagers? A. A wish to travel. B. More online friendships. C. Improved social skills. D. Anxiety and lower self-esteem. 14. What is the writer’s attitude towards social media? A. Uninterested. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Supportive. 15. What does the underlined word “hinders” in the last paragraph mean? A. Prevents. B. Determines. C. Improves. D. Encourages. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了社交媒体对青少年社交技能发展的影响，包括其带来的挑战和好处，并给出了专家建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“These non-verbal signals are largely absent in text-based communication. (这些非言语信号在基于文本的交流中基本上不存在。)”可知，文本沟通的主要缺点是几乎没有非言语信号。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Besides, the pressure to present a perfect life online can cause anxiety. Teens may feel they are in constant competition with their peers, leading to lower self-esteem. The term “FOMO” (Fear Of Missing Out) describes the anxiety that comes from seeing others post about exciting events you weren’t invited to. (此外，在网上展示完美生活的压力可能会导致焦虑。青少年可能会觉得他们一直在与同龄人竞争，导致自尊心下降。“FOMO”（害怕错过）这个词描述的是看到别人发布你没被邀请参加的激动人心的活动时产生的焦虑。)”可知，“FOMO”会导致焦虑和自尊心降低。故选D。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“the pressure to present a perfect life online can cause anxiety. (在网上展示完美生活的压力可能会导致焦虑。)”和“leading to lower self-esteem (导致自尊心下降)”和第四段“However, it’s not all negative .(然而，这并不全是负面的。)”以及最后一段“The goal is not to remove technology from their lives, but to teach them to use it in a way that supports, rather than hinders, their real-world social development. (我们的目标不是把技术从他们的生活中移除，而是教会他们以一种支持而不是阻碍他们现实世界社交发展的方式来使用技术。)”可知，作者既提到了社交媒体的缺点，也提到了它的好处，因此作者对社交媒体的态度是客观的。故选B。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“The goal is not to remove technology from their lives, but to teach them to use it in a way that supports, rather than hinders, their real-world social development. (我们的目标不是把技术从他们的生活中移除，而是教会他们以一种支持而不是_____他们现实世界社交发展的方式来使用技术。)”可知，由“rather than”可知，前后是转折关系，support意为“支持”，因此可推测出“hinders”意思是“阻止”。故选A。 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。 At Zack’s Finest Deli & Grocery, the owner, Wail Alselwi, is giving more than just sandwiches — he’s giving hope.

For locals, their first introduction to China often begins not with modern news, ____36____ with Nizami’s poems — which ____37____ (weave) into the city’s historical memory for over eight centuries. In 2012, on the 20th anniversary of diplomatic ties between China and Azerbaijan, a bust of Nizami was unveiled in Beijing, with students ____38____ (recite) his poems in Chinese. Today, Ganja ____39____ (serve) as a key node in the Belt and Road Initiative. It was a vital hub on the ancient Silk Road. Historians believe Nizami’s description of the Chinese princess in Khamsa ____40____ (inspire) by Eastern tales traveling along the trade route. Chinese-made Yutong buses are ____41____ (frequent) seen on Ganja’s streets, forming the backbone of public transportation. Chinese footprints in Ganja continue to expand across ____42____ (diversity) sectors. A traditional Chinese medicine clinic and a MINISO store ____43____ (open) soon, and the local agricultural university plans ____44____ (introduce) Chinese mushroom-growing technology by 2027. From the China imagined in poetry to the China embedded in modern life, these ____45____ (echo) across time can be seen everywhere in Ganja. 【答案】36. but 37. have been woven 38. reciting 39. serves 40. was inspired 41. frequently 42. diverse 43. will be opened 44. to introduce 45. echoes 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了阿塞拜疆城市甘贾与中国的渊源。 【36题详解】 考查连词。句意：对于当地人来说，他们对中国的最初了解往往不是始于现代新闻，而是始于尼扎米的诗歌——八个多世纪以来，这些诗歌已经融入了这座城市的历史记忆中。根据前文“not with modern news”可知，这里构成“not...but...”的固定搭配，意思是“不是……而是……” ，用于连接两个并列的成分，表示对比或转折，强调当地人对中国的了解起始于尼扎米的诗歌而非现代新闻。 【37题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：对于当地人来说，他们对中国的最初了解往往不是始于现代新闻，而是始于尼扎米的诗歌——八个多世纪以来，这些诗歌已经融入了这座城市的历史记忆中。“for over eight centuries”表示一段时间，是现在完成时的标志，强调动作从过去持续到现在，并对现在产生影响。同时，“which”指代前面的“poems”，“poems”与“weave”之间是被动关系，即诗歌是被编织进城市的历史记忆，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态，其结构为“have/has been +过去分词”，“poems”是复数形式，所以用“have been woven”。 【38题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：2012年，在中国与阿塞拜疆建交20周年之际，一座尼扎米的半身像在北京揭幕，学生们用中文朗诵他的诗歌。此处是“with +宾语+宾补”的结构，在这个结构中，“students”是宾语，“recite”与“students”之间是主动关系，即学生们主动进行朗诵的动作，所以要用现在分词“reciting”作宾补，来补充说明宾语的状态或正在进行的动作。 【39题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：如今，甘贾是“一带一路”倡议的一个关键节点。句子描述的是现在的客观事实，所以使用一般现在时。主语“Ganja”是第三人称单数，在一般现在时中，当主语是第三人称单数时，谓语动词要用第三人称单数形式，“serve”的第三人称单数形式是“serves”。 【40题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：历史学家认为，尼扎米在《五卷诗》中对中国公主的描述是受到了沿着这条贸易路线传播的东方故事的启发。根据语境可知，此处描述的是过去发生的事情，所以要用一般过去时。同时，“description”（描述）与“inspire”（启发）之间是被动关系，即描述是被启发的，所以要用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were +过去分词”。“description”是单数形式，所以用“was inspired”。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：中国制造的宇通客车经常出现在甘贾的街道上，构成了公共交通的主干。这里需要一个词来修饰动词“seen”，副词可以用来修饰动词，“frequent”的副词形式是“frequently”，表示“经常地”，用来描述客车出现的频率。 【42题详解】 考查形容词。句意：中国人在甘贾的足迹在各个不同的领域不断扩大。此处需要一个词来修饰名词“sectors”（领域），形容词用于修饰名词，“diversity”的形容词形式是“diverse”，意思是“不同的，多种多样的”，表示中国人涉足的领域多样。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：一家中医诊所和一家名创优品店很快将开业，当地的农业大学计划到2027年引进中国的蘑菇种植技术。“soon”表示“很快，不久”，是一般将来时的标志词，表明动作在将来发生。同时，“clinic”（诊所）和“store”（商店）与“open”（开业）之间是被动关系，即诊所和商店是被开业，所以要用一般将来时的被动语态，其结构为“will be +过去分词”，“open”的过去分词是“opened”，所以填“will be opened”。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：一家中医诊所和一家名创优品店很快将开业，当地的农业大学计划到2027年引进中国的蘑菇种植技术。“plan to do sth.”是固定搭配，意思是“计划做某事”，这里表示农业大学计划引进中国的蘑菇种植技术，所以要用动词不定式“to introduce”。 考查名词复数。句意：从诗歌中想象的中国到融入现代生活的中国，这些跨越时间的回响在甘贾随处可见。“these”表示“这些”，其后接可数名词复数形式，“echo”作为名词，意思是“回响”，其复数形式是“echoes”。 第三节（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分） 根据句意和所给中文提示完成句子。 46. The next morning, Jack arrived at school early and ________ (悄悄塞进) a piece of bread into his desk-mate’s drawer. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】slipped 【解析】 【详解】句意：第二天早上，杰克早早来到学校，悄悄塞进一片面包到他同桌的抽屉里。 “悄悄塞进”作谓语，用动词slip，结合并列谓语动词arrived at可知，讲述过去发生的事情，用一般过去时态，其过去式为slipped。 47. While being ________ (了解) about body language is vital, the value of empathy should not be understated. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】informed##acquainted 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然了解肢体语言至关重要，但同理心的价值也不应被低估。根据句意和汉语提示可知，空处应填动词inform/acquaint“了解”，be informed/acquainted about为固定搭配“了解”，空格前已经有being，所以用过去分词形式informed/acquainted。 48. Only when you give serious consideration to their points of view will you be able to see what ________ (是……的原因) their emotions and empathize with them. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】accounts for 【解析】 【详解】句意：只有当你认真考虑他们的观点时，你才能明白是什么造成了他们的情绪，并与他们产生共鸣。根据汉语提示“是……的原因”可知，此处为动词短语account for，陈述客观事实，使用一般现在时，主语为what，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。 49. While some communities are ________ (悲观)about the exchange between languages, there are also other communities that readily welcome borrowed words. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】pessimistic 【解析】 【详解】句意：虽然一些群体对语言之间的交流持悲观态度，但也有其他群体欣然接受外来词。be pessimistic about...为固定搭配，意为“对……悲观”，pessimistic在句中作表语。 50. A smile shows you are attentive to the issues being discussed, while looking away with your arms ________ (交叉) can indicate disinterest and create distrust or friction. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】crossed 【解析】 【详解】句意：微笑表明你关注正在讨论的问题，而双臂交叉着看向别处则可能表示不感兴趣，并产生不信任或摩擦。根据句意和汉语提示可知，空处应填动词cross“交叉”，此处为with的复合结构，即“with+宾语+宾补”，arms和cross为被动关系，所以用过去分词形式crossed作宾补。 51. Eventually, Huang Danian ______ (辞去) his post in the UK and returned to China to work at Jilin University in Changchun. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】resigned 【解析】 【详解】句意：最终，黄大年辞去了在英国的职务，回到中国，在长春吉林大学任教。所填词作谓语，and连接它和动词过去式returned，该词也要用过去式。resign作动词时意为“辞去”，过去式为resigned。 52. He always desires to be the top student in his grade, which in turn ________ (加重负担) him. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】burdens 【解析】 【详解】句意：他一直渴望成为年级尖子生，这反过来加重了他的负担。根据汉语提示 “加重负担”，对应动词 burden，为定语从句的谓语动词；句子陈述一般事实，所以用一般现在时态，which指代前文整件事，作单数主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数。 53. Once ________ (委任) as the president of the football association, he immediately launched a sweeping reform of the club’s operation methods. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】appointed 【解析】 【详解】句意：一旦被任命为足球协会主席，他立即对俱乐部的运营方式进行了全面改革。根据汉语提示“委任”可知，此处为动词appoint；once引导状语从句，从句主语与主句主语一致且含be动词，可省略主语和be动词，he和appoint为被动关系，需用过去分词形式。 54. They put me into prison, but in the end, I was proved ________. (无辜的) (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】innocent 【解析】 【详解】句意：他们把我关进了监狱，但最终证明我是无辜的。“无辜的”作主语补足语，用形容词innocent，表明主语I的性质。 55. As of last night, I still haven’t ________ (原谅) him for the mistakes he made. (根据汉语提示单词拼写) 【答案】forgiven 【解析】 【详解】句意：截至昨晚，我仍然没有原谅他所犯的错误。根据句意和汉语提示可知，空处应填动词forgive“原谅”，由“As of last night”和haven’t可知，句子为现在完成时，空处应用动词的过去分词形式forgiven。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 56. 假设你是李华。正值“国际中文日”，你校将举办主题为“Chinese Fever Around the World”的英语演讲比赛。请你代表班级写一篇英文演讲稿，内容包括： 1．简述全球“汉语热”的具体表现； 2．分析“汉语热”兴起的原因； 3．发出倡议。 注意事项 1．写作词数：80-100词； 2．开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear teachers and classmates, Good morning!

I felt like an outsider and the biggest trouble was my poor French: Fast-paced daily talk often left me struggling to keep up, which was a constant source of anxiety. Luckily, I soon found a perfect rental room through an ad. My landlady, Madame Dupont, a cheerful French woman, greeted me with a warm smile. She told me it was just her and her 7-year-old daughter Lila living in the house, and that her husband, Pierre, was a nurse in another city who worked permanent night shifts and was often tied up with his demanding schedule. She patiently introduced the family routine and the routes to my college. I felt at home immediately and signed the rental contract on the spot. Madame Dupont was like family to me. She helped me practice my French every evening, taught me about French life, and even drove me to the supermarket. Lila was energetic and enthusiastic and always a joy to be around. Our friendship almost began on the first day I moved in. She knocked at my door politely, sat close to me and eagerly shared stories about her friends, her pets and everything interesting. We laughed a lot, which really lit up my days far from home. Sometimes, Lila was quiet, just whispering to me how she missed her dear dad. I tried to comfort her, and each heart-to-heart talk drew us closer together. Lila would turn 8 that weekend and I overheard it at the dinner table. Moved by gratitude and affection, I got down to planning a surprise birthday party for her after learning she and her mom were going out that morning and wouldn’t be back until noon. The moment the door clicked shut, I slipped into the kitchen. With a heart full of excitement, I set my plan in motion. I laid out Lila’s favorite plates on the table and arranged her favorite flowers, hoping to please my little friend as much as I could. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右： （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Busy preparing for the party, I suddenly heard a man’s voice, “Surprise!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two hours later, Pierre and I got everything ready. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Busy preparing for the party, I suddenly heard a man’s voice, “Surprise!” Startled, I turned around to see Pierre standing there, his eyes filled with curiosity. It turned out that he had managed to get some time off and had come home early to surprise Lila. He was equally surprised to find me busy preparing a party for his daughter. After a brief explanation, he joined in with enthusiasm, helping me set up decorations and prepare snacks. We worked together, chatting and laughing, as we anticipated Lila's reaction. Two hours later, Pierre and I got everything ready. The house was transformed into a festive wonderland, with balloons and streamers everywhere. Just then, the door opened, and Lila and Madame Dupont walked in. Lila’s eyes widened in amazement as she took in the scene. “Happy birthday, sweetheart!” Pierre and I shouted in unison. Lila’s face lit up with pure joy as she ran to hug her dad, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks. It was a heartwarming moment that made all the effort worthwhile, and I felt grateful to be a part of their special day. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了加拿大女孩赴法留学，语言焦虑、独居异乡，租住杜邦夫人的房子，收获房东母女的温暖陪伴，为回馈善意，打算为小女孩莱拉筹备惊喜生日派对的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者筹备派对时偶遇归来的莱拉父亲，二人意外碰面，了解彼此的目的后，结伴一同布置生日派对。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写派对布置完成后的温馨场景，莱拉和母亲归家，看到惊喜万分感动，一家人团聚，作者收获温暖与归属感。 2.续写线索：独自筹备派对——偶遇房东丈夫——二人携手布置——派对布置完毕——母女归家惊喜——全员暖心团聚 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①转身：turn around/spin round/turn back ②加入：join in/participate in/take part in 情绪类 ①惊讶：amazement/astonishment ②感激的：feel grateful/be thankful/show appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】After a brief explanation, he joined in with enthusiasm, helping me set up decorations and prepare snacks.（运用了现在分词作状语） 【高分句型2】Lila’s face lit up with pure joy as she ran to hug her dad, tears of happiness streaming down her cheeks.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句，独立主格结构作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 海安实验中学高二年级期中考试 英语 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。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．How did the man go to work today?

It was sitting quietly beside an old pine tree, staring at me with bright round eyes. Instead of running away immediately as most wild animals did, it tilted its head curiously, as if studying a stranger. I froze, holding my breath, afraid that any small movement would scare it off. Slowly, I lowered my body and kept still. Minutes passed gently. To my surprise, the fox took a few careful steps toward me. Its fur shone softly in the weak sunlight filtering through the leaves. I could even notice the tiny white spots on its tail. It stopped just several meters away, watching me without fear. At that moment, all my worries and tiredness melted into the quietness of the forest. Before long, a soft call came from the distant bushes. The fox turned its head, then glanced back at me once more. It waved its tail lightly and ran off into the woods, disappearing among the fallen leaves. I stood there for a long time, filled with warmth and amazement. Nature is not merely a landscape we admire from afar. It is a world full of gentle lives. That short meeting taught me that respect and silence are the best bridges between humans and wild creatures. We live together on the same earth, and peaceful coexistence is the most precious gift we can share. 4. Why did the author go to the forest reserve? A. To research wild animals. B.

Volunteering can bring people unexpected fun. C Wild cats showcase a surprising diversity of eye colors, proving a mystery for researchers. Most wild species are known to have narrow eye color ranges, usually black, brown, or yellow. Eye colors’ evolution is hard to track. Fossils don’t preserve it; preserved samples have artificial eyes; most books illustrate only one example per species. Now, scientists have used abundant online photographs of wild cats to chart the transition from brown eyes to colors such as green and blue — and found something of a gray area. Any animal’s eye color is determined by its levels of two melanin pigments (黑色素) — eumelanin, which makes brown-black, and pheomelanin, which makes red-yellow. Eye colors vary according to the amounts of each, with different combinations leading to colors such as blue, green, and gray. Scientists, Tabin and Katherine, used a process called ancestral state reconstruction to determine the eye colors of extinct wild cat species based on those of their living descendants. They examined the clearest images submitted to the database iNaturalist, then classified each cat’s eye color, and mapped the data to the cat family tree, using an algorithm (算法) to find each common ancestor’s possible eye colors. The algorithm accounted for the likelihood of certain changes and figured in the time since species separated in order to generate the likeliest colors at every split. “It’s a way we can actually look into the eyes of the wild cat’s ancestor,” Tabin says. “The ancestor developed gray eyes, and then the eye color diversity just exploded.” Once an eye with moderate amounts of both eumelanin and pheomelanin appeared (producing gray eyes), blue and green were not far behind. The scientists next tried to connect the discovered eye colors with numerous factors, including habitat, fur color, and hunting behavior, to help explain why those shades had evolved. But they found little correlation. “Siberian dogs have those bright blue eyes because we wanted them to and bred them accordingly, but in wild cats, I have no idea what’s going on here,” Tabin says. Perhaps cats prefer particular eye colors in mates — but it would be challenging to test. 8. Why do wild cats’ eye colors puzzle researchers? A. Their diversity contradicts expected patterns. B. Fossils cannot preserve eye color information. C. Too many species exist to compare effectively. D. Lighting conditions alter colors in online photos. 9. How did the scientists conduct their study on wild cats’ eye colors? A. By observing fossil records of extinct cats. B. By analyzing photos from an online database. C. By examining melanin pigments in living cats. D. By studying artificial eyes of preserved samples. 10. What can we learn about the evolution of wild cats’ eye colors from Tabin’s words? A. Extinct cats had only one eye color type. B. Gray eyes led to different eye colors later. C. Blue and green eyes appeared before gray eyes. D. Gray eyes came from high melanin pigment amounts. 11. How does Tabin feel about the evolution of wild cats’ eye colors? A. Pleased. B. Relieved. C. Frightened. D. Confused. D Nowadays, teenagers’ social lives have grown online. While social media platforms like Instagram and TikTok offer new ways to connect, they also bring challenges to the development of social skills. Face-to-face communication requires the ability to “read” a conversation in real-time. You notice body language, tone of voice, and immediate reactions. These non-verbal (非言语的) signals are largely absent in text-based communication. As a result, heavy social media users might find it harder to hold a conversation in person or understand these social signals. Besides, the pressure to present a perfect life online can cause anxiety. Teens may feel they are in constant competition with their peers, leading to lower self-esteem (自尊). The term “FOMO” (Fear Of Missing Out) describes the anxiety that comes from seeing others post about exciting events you weren’t invited to. However, it’s not all negative. Social media can help shy people build confidence by allowing them to communicate at their own speed. It also helps keep long-distance friendships. The key is balance. Experts suggest that parents and educators should guide teens to use these tools positively. Encouraging offline activities, setting time limits, and having open conversations about online experiences are important steps. The goal is not to remove technology from their lives, but to teach them to use it in a way that supports, rather than hinders, their real-world social development. 12. What is the main disadvantage of text-based communication mentioned in the passage? A. It is not private enough. B. It doesn’t need social skills. C. It has hardly any non-verbal signals. D. It causes misunderstandings. 13. What does “FOMO” cause among teenagers? A. A wish to travel. B. More online friendships. C. Improved social skills. D. Anxiety and lower self-esteem. 14. What is the writer’s attitude towards social media? A. Uninterested. B. Objective. C. Negative. D. Supportive. 15. What does the underlined word “hinders” in the last paragraph mean? A. Prevents. B. Determines. C. Improves. D. Encourages. 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。 At Zack’s Finest Deli & Grocery, the owner, Wail Alselwi, is giving more than just sandwiches — he’s giving hope.

I felt like an outsider and the biggest trouble was my poor French: Fast-paced daily talk often left me struggling to keep up, which was a constant source of anxiety. Luckily, I soon found a perfect rental room through an ad. My landlady, Madame Dupont, a cheerful French woman, greeted me with a warm smile. She told me it was just her and her 7-year-old daughter Lila living in the house, and that her husband, Pierre, was a nurse in another city who worked permanent night shifts and was often tied up with his demanding schedule. She patiently introduced the family routine and the routes to my college. I felt at home immediately and signed the rental contract on the spot. Madame Dupont was like family to me. She helped me practice my French every evening, taught me about French life, and even drove me to the supermarket. Lila was energetic and enthusiastic and always a joy to be around. Our friendship almost began on the first day I moved in. She knocked at my door politely, sat close to me and eagerly shared stories about her friends, her pets and everything interesting. We laughed a lot, which really lit up my days far from home. Sometimes, Lila was quiet, just whispering to me how she missed her dear dad. I tried to comfort her, and each heart-to-heart talk drew us closer together. Lila would turn 8 that weekend and I overheard it at the dinner table. Moved by gratitude and affection, I got down to planning a surprise birthday party for her after learning she and her mom were going out that morning and wouldn’t be back until noon. The moment the door clicked shut, I slipped into the kitchen. With a heart full of excitement, I set my plan in motion. I laid out Lila’s favorite plates on the table and arranged her favorite flowers, hoping to please my little friend as much as I could. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右： （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Busy preparing for the party, I suddenly heard a man’s voice, “Surprise!” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Two hours later, Pierre and I got everything ready. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
