While working in book publishing,I could easily discuss professional topics like authors or budgets,but typical small talk questions about the weather or how someone arrived at an event put me on edge.Every conversation felt like a performance where I was being judged.I was never sure about the rules:how long it should last,or whether to be honest or just entertaining. This year,inspired by the saying,"Change the way you look at things,and the things you look at change,"I decided to approach small talk differently.At a friend's art show,I began asking unusual but personal questions,such as "What's your star sign?"or "What was your favorite subject in school?"To my surprise,people responded positively and conversations became more genuine and engaging.I learned interesting details about others,like a graduate's passion for beekeeping and a nurse writing a novel. Although there were a few awkward moments,most people welcomed this fresh approach.I've come to realize that small talk doesn't have to follow a fixed script-it can be a meaningful way to connect with others when we dare to make it real. 24.How did the author originally feel about small talk? A.She found it easy and natural. B.She thought it was unimportant. C.She felt it was awkward and stressful. D.She believed it was key to professional success. 25.What does the phrase "put me on edge"in paragraph 1 most likely mean? A.Made me feel bored. B.Made me feel nervous C.Made me lose interest. D.Made me feel excited. 26.What happened after the author started asking different questions? A.Most people refused to answer her. B.Conversations grew more sincere and absorbing. C.People only talked about traditional topics. D.She felt more anxious about social rules. 27.Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A.Why Is Small Talk Unnecessary? B.What Is the Professional Value of Networking? C.How Can Small Talk Be Meaningful? D.How Can We Avoid Awkward Conversations? C The I-25 Greenland Wildlife Overpass,currently under construction and scheduled for completion in late 2025,is set to become the world's largest wildlife crossing structure.Spanning nearly an acre in size,it will stretch 64 meters in length 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一）第4页（共10页） and 62 meters in width,arching over six lanes of Interstate 25-a highway carrying more than 100,000 vehicles daily.Its primary objective is to enhance safety in an area that records an average of one animal-vehicle collision per day during peak migration seasons in spring and fall,protecting both wildlife and motorists. Such crossings address a critical ecological issue:habitat fragmentation(). As roads,cities,and other human infrastructures(基础设施)expand,they carve through natural landscapes,isolating animal populations.This division restricts animals'ability to roam freely in search of food,shelter,and mates,often forcing them to attempt dangerous road crossings.Wildlife overpasses and underpasses- numbering over one thousand across the United States-serve as vital connectors, reuniting fragmented habitats and promoting ecological continuity. Beyond reducing collisions,these structures support population stability and genetic diversity by enabling safe passage and increasing gene flow between otherwise separated groups.Designed thoughtfully,the bridges are landscaped with native vegetation to blend smoothly into the surroundings,while strategically placed fencing guides animals toward the crossing.Tailoring designs to species-specific behaviors is essential;for instance,large mammals such as elk and grizzly bears prefer broad, open overpasses,whereas species like mountain lions may opt for longer,enclosed underpasses. Experts note,however,that adoption of new crossings is not immediate. Animals often require an adjustment period-sometimes up to five years for cautious species like wolves and grizzlies-to become accustomed to using these human-made pathways.Through patient observation and adaptive management,conservationists aim to maximize the overpass's effectiveness. The I-25 Greenland project illustrates how innovative engineering and ecological insight can unite to create solutions that benefit both wildlife and people.It reflects a growing recognition that infrastructure development must be thoughtfully combined with environmental management,fostering coexistence in an increasingly shared landscape. 28.What is the main goal of building the I-25 Greenland Wildlife Overpass? A.To decrease accidents between cars and animals. B.To break a world record for bridge length. C.To provide a passage only for large mammals. D.To introduce the first wildlife bridge in the U.S. 29.What problem does habitat fragmentation cause for animals? A.It reduces their hunting skills during daytime. B.It makes them dependent on human-provided food. C.It separates animal groups and limits their movement. D.It encourages competition between different species. 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一）第5页（共10页） 30.Why is native vegetation planted on wildlife bridges? A.To attract animals with food sources. B.To offer shelter during extreme weather. C.To help them fit into the natural landscape. D.To create specific routes for different mammals. 31.What can be learned from the text about wildlife crossings? A.They are immediately accepted and used by all animals. B.They should be designed identically for all animal types. C.They are the only effective way to prevent vehicle accidents. D.They represent a creative approach to ecological protection. D In today's AI-driven world,comparing the human brain to a computer is common.The metaphor suggests memory storage,data processing,and logical circuits.Yet decades ago,MIT AI Lab co-founder Marvin Minsky began questioning this view.He noticed that human thinking isn't just logic or calculation-it is shaped by emotions,memories,and bodily experience,elements machines lack.True intelligence,he argued,is more about adaptability,contextual response,and making sense of a changing world than following rigid rules. Seeing the brain as non-computational shifts our outlook.It could reshape how we approach education,technology,and personal growth.In her book Failure to Connect,educational psychologist Jane Healy warned that too much screen time may actually slow children's mental development.Why?Because computers tend to encourage linear thinking rather than the hands-on,exploratory learning that truly stimulates the brain growth.The lesson is clear:our minds thrive on stories,deep feelings,and the freedom to play and explore. Why,then,did the brain evolve this way?In a chaotic and high-stakes natural world,evolution favored organisms that could quickly infer threats,recognize opportunities,and adapt.The brain became a prediction engineoptimized not for perfect accuracy,but for relevance and energy efficiency.Its role is to make the best possible decision quickly,not the perfect one slowly. This evolutionary perspective offers practical guidance for daily life.Instead of fearing confusion or contradiction,we can accept them as natural features of how our brains work.Seek out environments that engage your senses and stir emotions-rich, real-world experiences help your brain develop in ways screens cannot.And perhaps most importantly,release the pressure to be perfectly efficient.We are not machines. We are living,adaptive beings,designed to learn,grow,and connect. 32.According to Marvin Minsky,what is central to human thought? A.Precise computing ability. B.Logic and calculation. C.Emotions and experiences. D.Adaptation to new technologies. 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一）第6页（共10页） 33.Why might too much screen time slow children's mental growth? A.It reduces social interaction with peers. B.It changes how people view education. C.It harms brain development through screen radiation. D.It encourages straight-line thinking over active exploration. 34.What is the main focus of the last paragraph? A.Warning about technology's risks. B.Giving life advice based on how the brain works. C.Criticizing modern society's efficiency addiction. D.Stressing differences between humans and machines. 35.What is the author's main purpose in writing this text? A.To introduce the evolutionary process of the human brain. B.To criticize the rise of artificial intelligence. C.To explain the brain's computational principles. D.To stress the unique,non-computer-like nature of human intelligence. 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。 Five Ways to Celebrate Small Wins Most of us are good at celebrating big wins,but life is made up of little moments.Celebrating small wins can keep you motivated.Here are five ways to acknowledge them. Pause and slow down After a small win,resist rushing to the next task.Instead,pause and slow down.36 This gives your brain time to absorb your accomplishment and strengthen positive feelings. Write a thank-you note 37 So take advantage of it to celebrate your small wins.Write a message to someone who helped you achieve your small win-a loved one,a mentor,or even your past self. 38 Take a photo,write a poem,or record a voice note about your feeling.They become proof that you are moving forward.These reminders can boost you on harder days and show your progress over time. Share with friends Some successes may not be widely recognized,but don't let that stop you. 39 Share your win with a friend who truly understands,and enjoy the celebration together. Create a“win”wall If you're working toward a long-term goal,tracking progress step by step can keep you motivated.40 For example,if training for a marathon,write down 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一）第7页（共10页） each run's details on a wall chart.You can even use stickers to mark each achievement. A.Capture the moment. B.Expressing gratitude has many benefits. C.This helps you reflect on what you've done. D.It strengthens your relationship with others. E.For instance,you can create a visual record of your progress. F.Instead,find someone who will appreciate your achievement. G.Doing so makes you more aware of the joy in everyday life. 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。 “Fix up.It's not me who needs GCSE(普通中等教育证书)一it'syou!”41 our science teacher,Miss T,to our year 10 class.We had all just collectively 42 our mock exam(模拟考试).

Reagan had always been attracted by the overlooked.As a child,she collected dead insects while others picked flowers.In college,professors praised her technique but didn't like what she created."Such talent wasted on such...disturbing images," one had said.At 34,Reagan had carved a strange little space for herself in Boston's art scene.Her last gallery show drew seven people-three of them family. Now,she was preparing for a small exhibition at a Cambridge gallery known for "biological art".The piece she was finishing was special:For three months,she'd carefully observed and painted an unusual mould growing on her bathroom ceiling.Its thin,lace-like branches attracted her. Suddenly,the phone rang.It was Anna,the gallery owner."Reagan,slight change for Friday,Anna said,her voice tense."We're moving your show to the back room.The front space goes to Martin Clement.His colorful abstracts sell better.Your work is...unique."Reagan held back her disappointment."It's fine." After hanging up,she turned back to her painting with determination.Let them hide me,she thought.They'd see the beauty someday. The gallery was busy on Friday.Dr Deirdre Lathurna,Anna's cousin,appeared at the exhibition.She worked at Massachusetts General Hospital.A strict microbiologist,she studied fungi (that might clean polluted water.For a year, she'd searched for a new type that could break down microplastics safely,but none worked well enough.Though art rarely interested her,family duty called. Anna greeted Deirdre warmly."Come,let me show you around!"Deirdre followed,glancing at the bright abstract paintings without much interest."And back here,"Anna added,leading her to a quieter room,"is Reagan Theriault's mould art. Strange,but skillful. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。 As they entered the back room,Deirdre froze. Months later,Reagan stood beside Deirdre in a hospital conference room. 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一）第10页（共10页）参考 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（一） 1-5 ABCAB 6-10 BCCAB 11-15 ABCCA 16-20 AABCA 21-23ABB 24-27 CBBC 28-31 ACCD 32-35 CDBD 36-40 CBAFE 41-45 ADCAC 46-50 CAACD 51-55 BCDAC 56.Organized 57.specialized 58.gave 59.Additionally 60.a 61.highlights 62.how 63.which 64.to appreciate 65.musical 第一节：应用文写作 Version 1: Dear editor, As a senior high student,I firmly believe that artificial intelligence brings more benefits than drawbacks. Firstly,AI significantly enhances learning efficiency.For instance,intelligent tutoring systems can provide personalized exercises,helping us grasp knowledge more effectively.Secondly,Al promotes educational equality by offering high-quality resources to students in remote areas.Additionally, Al-driven applications like translation tools and voice assistants simplify daily tasks.Although some worry about job displacement,history shows that technological progress ultimately creates new opportunities. Therefore,we should embrace AI's potential while guiding its development responsibly. Yours, Li Hua 答案 Version 2: Dear editor, While recognizing the convenience of artificial intelligence,I hold a cautious view regarding its widespread use. The primary concern is its impact on employment,as AI may replace many traditional jobs,leading to social instability.Moreover,over- reliance on AI could weaken our critical thinking and problem-solving skills.For example,depending solely on translation apps might hinder language acquisition.Data privacy is another issue,as personal information could be misused. Thus,it is crucial to establish strict regulations to ensure AI develops ethically and serves humanity without causing harm. Yours, Li Hua 第二节：读后续写 As they entered the back room,Deirdre froze. Her eyes locked onto Reagan's canvas.The mould's delicate,branching structures were rendered with astonishing precision-structures she recognized instantly from her own lab slides.This was no ordinary fungus;its morphology matched the rare, undocumented strain she had been desperately seeking for her microplastic research.Heart racing, she stepped closer,ignoring Anna's puzzled look. "Who painted this?"Deirdre asked,her voice sharp with urgency."The artist-I must speak with her immediately.” Months later,Reagan stood beside Deirdre in a hospital conference room. Before them hung Reagan's painting,now displayed alongside microscope images of the living fungus cultured from her bathroom sample.Deirdre had confirmed its unique plastic-degrading enzymes,a breakthrough. Flashbulbs flashed as they announced their joint paper.Reagan listened as scientists praised the “stunning beauty”of the microbial world.She smiled,watching two overlooked things-her art and the humble mould-finally seen,together changing how the world saw both science and beauty. 听力录音原稿 Text 1 M:Look,little George keeps smiling.He must be having a sweet dream.

W:Bold move!How did you start Xtreme Hip Hop? M:I opened a gym in Cleveland Heights in 2013.At first,I taught traditional step classes,but the music was boring.I didn't feel the energy.Then one day,while cleaning at home,I heard a lively song that reminded me of dancing with friends when I was young.Listening to the song,we couldn't help dancing.I thought,"What if I mix this with steps?"I tried it,and people loved it! My social media videos went viral,so classes filled up. W:Big companies wanted to buy your program, right? M:Yes,but I turned them down.I wanted to build it myself.I named it Xtreme Hip Hop and started traveling around the country to teach it. In 2019,I launched an instructor certification program.Now there are over 4,000 certified instructors worldwide-including even 10-year- olds! Text 10 M:The celebrated pianist and author Alfred Brendel died aged 94 in London.He was born in the Czech Republic on January 5th,1931.And he spent his childhood mainly in Croatia and Austria.He studied piano and composition until he was 16,and after that,he was largely self- taught.At 17,he gave his first public performance in Graz.The teenage Brendel was also an author and a painter,but in 1949 he won fourth prize in the Busoni competition,which launched his career as a performing musician. His concert and recording career lasted more than 60 years.He was particularly fond of the music of Beethoven,and made the first recording of Beethoven's entire piano music.His final public concert was in Vienna in 2008,and in the following years he published poetry and essays,lectured and continued to teach and give master classes.Brendel's students included Paul Lewis,Imogen Cooper,Kit Armstrong and Till Fellner,and he devoted a significant part of his time to sharing his experiences with younger artists."Alfred Brendel was my guide and an endless source of inspiration for more than 30 years.I'm fortunate enough to be guided and touched by his wisdom and insight,of which he gave so generously and selflessly,"said Lewis. "He was unique among great pianists.His playing was intense;his teaching no less so,but dry humor was never far,"said Cooper. A篇 本文是一篇应用文，文章介绍了蓝石国家风景河，涵 盖交通、气候与游览须知。 21.A细节理解题。原文指出从177的14号出口 向北行驶约22英里可到达蓝石州立公园。 22.B细节理解题。文中明确说明最壮观的秋叶景 观通常出现在十月中旬。 23.B推理判断题。根据规定，持有合法许可证钓 鱼是允许的，其余选项均被禁止。 B篇 本文以第一人称叙述了作者对闲聊(small talk)的态 度转变。受一句名言的启发，她在社交中尝试提出 更个人化的问题，发现对话因此变得更真实、有吸引 力，人与人之间的连接也更加自然。尽管偶有尴尬， 但她领悟到：只要敢于打破常规脚本，闲聊也可以成 为真诚交流的桥梁。 24.C细节理解题。第一段首句明确指出作者过去 认为闲聊经常无聊，有时有压力，并描述其带来 的自我怀疑与压力感。因此C项“感到尴尬和有 压力”准确概括了她最初的态度。A项中的“轻 松自然”与原文相反；B项中的“认为不重要”未 在文中体现；D项中的“认为是职业成功关键”与 文中“可谈论专业话题但害怕闲聊”的描述不符。 25.B词义猜测题。第一段中，作者提到日常闲聊 问题“put me on edge'”,后文紧接着描述“每次对 话都像在表演，担心自己被评判”，可见此处指闲 聊让她感到“紧张、不自在”，与B项“made me feel nervous'”意思一致。 26.B细节理解题。第二段后半部分指出，作者改 变提问方式后，“人们反应积极，对话变得更真 实、有吸引力”，她还了解到他人生活中的有趣细 节。因此B项“对话变得更真实和吸引人”符合 文意。 27.C标题归纳题。全文围绕作者如何将“令人尴 尬的闲聊”转变为“真实有意义的交流”展开，最 终落脚于“it can be a meaningful way to connect with others'”。C项“如何让闲聊变得有意义？”准 确捕捉了这一转变的核心。 C篇 本文介绍了即将建成的I25格陵兰野生动物立交 桥一全球最大的生态通道。它旨在减少车与动物 的碰撞、连接被公路割裂的栖息地、促进动物种群交 流与基因流动。文章指出通道需结合本地植被进行 生态伪装，并依据物种习性差异化设计，同时强调动 物需要适应期。该项目体现了通过工程创新实现人 与自然共存的理念。 28.A细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句可知，立 交桥主要为解决每日平均一起的车与动物的相 撞事故而建。 29.C细节理解题。第二段指出人类基础设施导致 动物栖息地被分割、种群孤立、活动受限。 30.C细节理解题。第三段说明种植当地植物是为 了使桥梁与自然环境融为一体 31.D主旨推断题。全文通过立交桥案例，说明了 可通过创新设计在发展中保护生态，协调人与野 生动物的关系。 D篇 本文探讨人脑与计算机的根本不同，指出人类思维 的核心在于情感、体验与适应能力，而非逻辑计算。 我们应拥抱真实体验，摆脱效率压力，认识自身作为 生命体的学习与成长特质。 32.C细节理解题。根据第一段第四句可知， Minsky认为人类思维的关键在于情感、记忆与 身体体验。 33.D细节理解题。第二段指出，过多的屏幕使用 时间易导致线性思维，不利于开展能促进大脑发 育的主动探索式学习。 34.B段落主旨题。末段基于大脑特性，给出接纳 困惑、寻求真实体验、不要给自己施加追求完美 效率的压力等生活建议。 35.D写作意图题。全文围绕“人脑并非计算机”展 开，强调人类智能的独特性在于其适应性与体 验性。 七选五 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了五种庆祝小胜利的方法， 旨在帮助读者保持动力、积极面对生活。 36.C空白前提到“暂停、放慢”，后面说“给大脑时 间去消化自己的成就”，C项“这帮助你反思你所 做的事情”恰好与其衔接，说明放慢脚步的作用。 37.BB项说“表达感激有很多好处”，后一句“所以 利用它来庆祝你的小胜利”中的“它”指代“表达 感激”，前后逻辑连贯。 38.A“拍一张照片，写一首诗，或者录一段语音笔 记来记录你的感受”。内容强调需要捕捉这样的 时刻，所以小标题选A。 39.F空白前说“有些成功可能不被广泛认可，但不 要因此停止”，F项“相反，找一个会欣赏你成就 的人”与后句的“与真正理解的朋友分享你的成 功”直接对应。 40.E空白后以马拉松训练为例说明如何跟踪进 展，E项“例如，你可以创建一个进展的可视化记 录”既是前句“跟踪进展”的具体化，又引出后文 的例子。 完形填空 这篇文章讲述了作者在学生时代遭到老师严厉批评 的一次经历。作者最初不以为然，但在回顾往事时 体会到了老师的良苦用心，庆幸自己及时调整好学 习态度，最终取得了优异成绩。 41.A考查动词。由于科学老师希望大家重视模拟 考试，故用shouted。 42.D考查动词。大家不重视模拟考试，在考试中 都失败了。 43.C考查名词。作者认为模拟考试只是一个 练习。 44.A考查副词。后面是老师说的话“失败的准备， 就是要准备失败”，作者是生动地记得老师讲 的话。 45.C考查名词。老师的目的、意图是好的。 46.C考查形容词。跟模拟考试对应的是真实的 考试。 47.A考查形容词。作者对自已是有信心的，后面 说到只要读了点书就能学好。 48.A考查动词。作者忽视了老师的建议。 49.C考查动词短语。成功并不是一个你想用时就 能打开的水龙头。 50.D考查名词。成功是努力和准备的结果。 51.B考查名词。这是一次“教训”。 52.C考查副词。作者能及时了解到老师的苦衷， 所以觉得幸运。 53.D考查形容词。之后作者在学校都是成功的。 54.A考查形容词。作者明白了努力是有必要的。 55.C考查动词。没有老师的教导，自己的成功不 会发生。 语法填空 56.Organized考查非谓语动词。此处为非谓语动 词作状语，program与organize是被动关系，故用 过去分词形式，句首单词需要大写首字母。 57.specialized考查词性转换。空格后是名词，需 要形容词对其进行修饰。 58.gave考查谓语动词。Sharing and discussing what they had learned作主语，根据上下文语境 可知，谓语动词用过去时态。 59.Additionally考查词性转换。形容词变副词，修 饰整个句子。 60.a考查冠词。a range of“广泛的，一系列 的…”。 61.highlights考查名词复数。one of-+名词复数。 62.how考查宾语从句。从句缺少方式状语，用 how引导。 63.which考查定语从句。先行词是poem,指物。 64.to appreciate考查非谓语动词。encourage sb to do sth“鼓励某人做某事”。 65.musical考查词性转换。修饰名词heritage需 用形容词。 黄冈中学临考特训预测卷（二） 1-5 CCACC 6-10 AACBB 11-15 BACBA 16-20 BAACB 21-23BDC 24-27 DCBA 28-31 ABBC 32-35 CBDD 36-40 ECAFG 41-45 ACCAD 46-50 CABDB 51-55 BCDAD 56.tasteless 57.a 58.by 59.is produced 60.including 61.Locals 62.to suit 63.sliced 64.immediately 65,injury/being injured 第一节：应用文写作 Dear Mike, I understand how you feel about your energy levels,and I think it's great that you want to take some exercise!Here are a few suggestions that might help you.

Looking forward to your progress! Yours, Li Hua 第二节：读后续写 The firefighters took turns operating the rescue saw,slowly cutting the wall.The high-pitched buzz echoed through the yard as dust rained down.A firefighter carefully inserted a long grabbing tool into the narrow channel,adjusting its angle with quiet urgency.Each pause let a trembling meow echo out, guiding the next cut."I see her!"I shouted.The cries were closer.Undoubtedly,it was Chocolate. Everyone held their breath as the tool was gently moved deeper,inch by inch,to avoid harming the terrified cat.Finally,she was pulled out,trembling, covered in dust,but alive. Chocolate was weak and cold.We carried her straight to the kitchen quickly and Mom wrapped her in a wool blanket.She let out a soft purr the moment she was wrapped warmly.My mom's eyes filled with tears,and we all broke into relieved smiles. The firefighters accepted our heartfelt thanks before leaving.That day,we not only saved a life,but we honored it.In a world,often driven by speed and self-interest,rescuing a small and frightened animal reminds us of something greater.Every life,no matter how insignificant it is,deserves to be seen,to be heard,and to be saved.
