In campus life, common accidents like sprained ankles, cuts or heart attacks happen now and then. When facing such situations, remember the basic steps: stay calm, call for teachers or an ambulance without delay, ensure the scene is safe, and provide first aid like stopping bleeding gently or keeping injured limbs (四肢) unmoved. Every minute counts. When facing emergencies, we canˈt just stand by and do nothing. Learning first aid enables us to protect ourselves and help others. Letˈs actively participate in the schoolˈs first aid training activities, master this life-saving skill, and make our campus a safer place for everyone. 七、续写 Just then, a familiar barking was heard in the distance. In a split second, a splash of brown, out of breath, quickly jumped into the lake. It was One-Eyed! It barked, swimming toward Danny with all its might. On spotting One-Eyed, Danny seemed to see a ray of hope, attempting to move towards it instantly. Instinctively, Danny grabbed the tail of One-Eyed. Ultimately, they managed to climb ashore, exhausted. Gazing at One-Eyed in disbelief, Danny patted it tenderly in return. One-Eyed was no longer troublesome; instead, it became a “hero” in his heart. “My hero! Thank you for saving me," Danny said gratefully with watery eyes. “You're my brave guardian angel!” Since that night, “One-Eyed” was nonexistent while “Hero”, as the dog was re-named, became a part of Danny's performance. So attached were they to each other that they became genuine partners. Danny would include his pet as he engaged the audience. Hero also had its own place to lie on-the feet of Danny. While Danny played guitar, Hero would bark happily to harmonize with his owner. What a perfect match! 一、听力详解（红字为正答依据，蓝字为错答干扰） 第1题【原文】M: Maria, did you track the shipment of urgent medical supplies?

B 25. A 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文通过讲述作者与一位西非移民Uber司机的对话经历，展现移民家庭对子女从事高薪职业的期望，以及作者面对这种期望从焦虑转为包容的心态变化。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?”(然后出现了那个决定性的问题：“你学的什么？”我回答说“历史和文学”，我听得出他声音中的自豪感消失了，正如我所预料的那样。我甚至还没来得及补充“还有非裔美国人研究”，他就打断了我，声音里充满了失望：“为了进哈佛费那么大劲，你居然学历史？”)”可知，令这位司机感到失望的是作者学习的专业。故选B项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段中“his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?(他的声音里充满了失望：“为了进哈佛费那么大劲，你居然学历史？”)”以及划线词所在句下文“He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home.(随后，他继续讲着所有移民家庭孩子都耳熟能详的“老生常谈”：我们这些移民后代，就该去当医生（要是父母放宽要求，当个律师也行）——赚钱养家，还要往老家寄钱)”可知，司机认为移民后代应该学医、学法律等，而作者努力考上哈佛大学却选择学历史是在浪费这个机会，由此可知，划线单词所在句“Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life.(在他看来，我这个 “女儿”，简直是在squandering人生中这难得的机遇。)”中的划线单词squandering应是“浪费”含义。故选A项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative of upward mobility so your children can do the same.(他继续讲着所有移民孩子都知道的老生常谈。我们要成为医生（或者律师，如果我们的父母够慷慨的话）——赚钱并寄钱回家。我的优步（Uber）司机清楚地阐述了几代人的潜要求，很简单：在向上流动的故事中发挥你的作用，这样你的孩子也能这样做。)”可知，移民父母希望孩子成为医生或律师，目的是赚钱、寄钱回家，并且完成阶层向上流动的使命，让下一代也能如此。由此可知，移民孩子被期望成为医生或律师是为了从事高收入职业来获得经济上的成功，推动家族发展。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion.(以前，每次被问到这类问题，我都会满心焦虑，仿佛被逼到了墙角；但如今，作为一名大三学生，我心里更多的是对他们这份期许的感激。这个假期，我暗自下定决心：再听到这样的询问，我不会再烦躁地抱怨，也不会急着辩解 “我以后打算读法学院” 来回应这些主动送上的建议。我会笑着点点头，好好享受当下这份温情。)”可知，作者以前面对这类提问会感到焦虑，但现在作为大三学生，更多的是感激他们的支持，还决心不会再对这些询问感到烦躁，只会微笑点头。这体现出作者对司机的质疑持包容、体谅的态度。故选B项。 C（28–31） 文章主旨：研究表明，学生认为“必须比他人更努力”会损害科学自信，而关注自身努力则有积极效果，尤其对女生。 C篇【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一项新研究揭示学生对努力的认知影响其在STEM领域的成功，给出相关建议。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“When students feel they must work harder than others, they often interpret this as a sign of lacking natural talent. This hurts their “science self-concept” — the belief that they can succeed in science.(当学生觉得他们必须比其他人更努力时，他们常常将此解读为缺乏天赋的信号。这损害了他们的“科学自我概念”——即相信自己能在科学领域取得成功的信念)”可知，比较性努力对学生科学自我概念的危害在于它暗示了缺乏天赋。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Women may realize they need to work hard to overcome stereotypes (fixed ideas) that women are weak in science. Consequently, women who simply perceive themselves as working hard tend to perform better and feel more confident about their scientific abilities.(女性可能意识到她们需要努力工作来克服女性在科学方面薄弱的刻板印象（固定观念）。因此，那些仅仅认为自己努力工作的女性往往表现更好，对自己的科学能力更有信心)”可知，女性学生通常将努力视为积极的信号。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“This finding highlights the importance of early positive experiences for students to understand the link between effort and success.(这一发现强调了早期积极经历对于学生理解努力与成功之间联系的重要性)”可知，早期成功可以鼓励学生进一步努力，即早期的成功体验能让学生明白努力和成功的关系，从而鼓励他们继续努力。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Researchers suggest that students should focus on their own work and progress rather than comparing themselves to peers.(研究人员建议学生应该关注自己的工作和进步，而不是与同龄人进行比较)”可知，研究人员建议STEM学生专注于自己的努力。故选C。 D篇【答案】32.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章通过一项科学研究告诉我们：小小的海洋浮游动物，默默封存了巨量温室气体，帮助减缓全球变暖，是被人类忽视的气候守护者，但如今它们正被过度捕捞，急需我们的保护。 32. 首段末“how these little creatures are important for helping to protect the planet against global warming”即研究焦点，故选D。 33. 第二段描述浮游动物下沉约1,600英尺，释放二氧化碳，碳被带到深海，故选 B。 34. 第三段指出因浮游动物太深，释放的气体需多年甚至数世纪才能回到大气，故选 B（too deep）。 35. 全文强调浮游动物是“unsung heroes”的碳储存者，故标题应为“未被注意的气候调节者”，选 C。 三、七选五详解 文章主旨：针对社交焦虑，提供四个对话技巧：低风险练习、准备开场白、回声技巧、准备退场策略。 答案：36. F 37. E 38. B 39. G 40. D 解析： 36. F选项承上启下：先点明社交焦虑带来的负面影响，自然过渡到后文——既然焦虑有这么多困扰，接下来专家就要分享改善、应对的聊天技巧，完美衔接后文引出解决方案的内容。 37. E选项“These short interactions can be a low-pressure way to build self-esteem.”（这些简短的互动，是建立自尊、提升自信的低压力方式），完美承接上文的“和身边人闲聊”，同时引出后文“不会有压倒性的压力、慢慢获得舒适感与自信”，上下文逻辑完全契合。 38. 本段核心内容：提前准备、练习2-3个简单的聊天开场白，大脑空白的时候可以直接用，避免冷场，还举了很多聊天话题的例子。B选项“Draft some icebreakers.”（提前准备一些开场白/破冰话题），精准概括了整段“提前构思聊天开启话术”的主旨。 39. 回声技巧——复述对方说过的话，然后追问细节，对方就会主动展开解释自己的困扰、想法。G选项“And that takes some of the pressure off you to feel like you have to come up with original responses.”（这样一来，你就不用绞尽脑汁去想全新、独特的回复，大大减轻你的社交压力）正好承接回声聊天法的好处：不用自己硬想话题，把话语权交给对方，缓解社交焦虑，逻辑闭环。 40. D选项“The good news about social events is that they all eventually end.”（社交活动的好消息就是：它们终究都会结束）完美引出本段核心：不用焦虑没法脱身，提前备好退场方案、知道社交总会收尾，就能大幅缓解不安。 四、完形详解 【导语】文章通过作者从“懒惰”到主动改变习惯的亲身经历，阐述了微小习惯转变如何带来意想不到的人生收获。 【41题详解】 考查动词。句意：大约十五年前，我妻子在我不知情的情况下为我报名了一个健康研讨会——我是事后才得知此事的。A. prepared准备；B. trained训练；C. invited邀请；D. enrolled（使）注册。根据后文“ without my knowledge”可知，作者妻子在作者不知情的情况下为他报名参加了健康研讨会，短语“enroll sb. for sth.”表示“为某人报名参加某项活动”。 【42题详解】 考查名词。句意：大约十五年前，我妻子在我不知情的情况下推荐我参加一个健康研讨会——我是事后才得知此事的。A. fact事实；B. reason原因；C. accident事故；D. task任务。根据上文“my wife ____ me for a health workshop without my knowledge”可知，作者的妻子在作者不知情的情况下推荐他参加健康研讨会，所以推测是在事后知道此事得的，after the fact 是固定搭配，意为“事后”，符合语境。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：在医生的建议下，我目标是每天走大约10000步。A. insistence坚持；B. invitation邀请；C. command命令；D. recommendation建议。根据上文“the doctor talked about the importance of exercise for good health”可知，医生在讲座中谈到了锻炼对健康的重要性，所以是听从了医生的建议，作者决定每天走大约10000步。 【44题详解】 考查动词。句意：随着我在当地社区散步的时间延长，我开始注意到到处都是垃圾。A. changed改变；B. slowed减速；C. lengthened延长；D. interrupted打断。根据上文“aimed to walk around 10,000 steps daily”可知，作者目标是每天走大约10000步，所以应是会扩大散步范围，延长散步时间。 【45题详解】 考查动词。句意：我突然想到我可以做点什么。A. surprised使惊讶；B. struck突然想到；C. convinced使信服；D. informed通知。根据上文“I began to notice so much litter everywhere”以及后文“I could do something”可知，作者看到到处都是垃圾，应该想做点什么来帮助处理这些垃圾。It struck sb. that...为固定句型，意为“某人突然想到……”。 【46题详解】 考查名词。句意：很快，我就开始了每天寻找路边垃圾的行动。A. hunt搜寻；B. wish希望；C. match比赛；D. survey调查。根据上文“I could do something”以及后文“for roadside litter”可知，作者想到自己可以做点什么来改善环境，于是开始了捡拾路边垃圾的行动。 【47题详解】 考查动词。句意：渐渐地，社区开始发生变化。A. recover恢复；B. develop发展；C. transform转变；D. function运行。根据上文“I began my daily ____ for roadside litter”可知，作者开始每天捡路边垃圾，社区自然变得干净卫生，所以这一行为使得社区开始发生变化。 【48题详解】 考查名词。句意：结果我的生活也会因此改变。A. aim目标；B. life生活；C. health健康；D. routine常规。根据后文“I saw a crowd with many dogs on a baseball field, wondering what they were doing. ”作者结识了一群爱狗人士，融入了一个充满爱的社区可知，作者的生活发生了改变。 【49题详解】 考查动词。句意：不久之后，我发现自己不知不觉和一位带着金毛寻回犬的女士并肩同行。A. made制作；B. kept保持；C. found发现；D. felt感觉。根据后文“We started chatting, learning I was a dog lover, she invited me into ____ where a group of dog lovers gathered.”可知，作者和那位女士聊天，那位女士还邀请作者加入爱狗人士的聚集地，所以应是发现自己和她同行。find oneself doing sth.为固定句型，意为“发现自己(不知不觉)正在做某事”。 【50题详解】 考查名词。句意：得知我是爱狗人士后，她邀请我进入了那个爱狗人士聚集的球场。A. park公园；B. street街道；C. yard院子；D. field球场。根据上文“I saw a crowd with many dogs on a baseball field, wondering what they were doing.”可知，爱狗人士会在一个棒球场聚集。 【51题详解】 考查副词。句意：在过去的十五年里，我每天早上都兴奋地从床上跳起来，被一群我原本不会遇到的狗和朋友们包围着。A. though虽然；B. otherwise否则；C. somewhat有点；D. anyway无论如何。根据上文“surrounded by dogs and friends I would have never met”可知，作者被一群原本不会遇到的狗和朋友们包围着，otherwise表示“否则，要不然的话”，符合语境。 【52题详解】 考查动词。句意：随着时间的推移，我创作了以我拍摄的许多毛茸茸的朋友为主题的摄影日历。A. created创作；B. exchanged交换；C. bought买；D. borrowed借。根据后文“photo calendars featuring my photography of so many furry friends”可知，作者自己拍摄的照片，应是自己用做成了日历。 【53题详解】 考查形容词。句意：最重要的是，我发现自己是一个充满爱的社区的一员，分享生日、节日和庆祝活动。A. formal正式的；B. loving充满爱的；C. familiar熟悉的；D. large大的。根据后文“sharing birthdays, holidays and celebrations”可知，共享节日，彼此相伴，体现社群温暖有爱。 【54题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：当我被哄骗参加那个健康研讨会时，我从未想到会发生这样的事情。A. talked into说服；B. attracted into被吸引到；C. led into导致；D. tricked into被骗做。根据上文“my wife __41__ me for a health workshop without my knowledge”以及后文“I never saw this coming”可知，作者的妻子在作者不知情的情况下为他报名参加了健康研讨会，所以应是被妻子哄骗后去的研讨会。 【55题详解】 考查名词。句意：毫无疑问，改变习惯为我打开了一个全新的世界。A. hobbies爱好；B. habits习惯；C. attitudes态度；D. roles角色。根据上文“I’m not sure if laziness is a habit, but I must say that I’m quite good at it”以及后文“opened up a whole new world for me”可知，懒惰原本是作者的一个习惯，被妻子哄去参加健康研讨会后，开始每天走一万步，捡路边垃圾，这些行为改变了作者的习惯，为作者打开了一个全新的世界。 五、语填详解 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了画家吴成岩怀着对绘画的热爱，在家乡乡村绘制各类壁画，把村庄打造成网红“哪吒村”，带动旅游发展、振兴乡村经济，他还计划开办画室，用艺术美化乡村每一面墙壁，助力村民实现乡村振兴梦想。 【56题详解】 考查时态语态。句意：2023年，当他正在为他妻子的祖父绘制风景画时，一个为家乡老人创作艺术作品的想法萌生了。事情发生在2023年，用一般过去时，主语an idea与generate为被动关系，用一般过去时的被动语态was generated。 【57题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：受2025年初动画电影《哪吒 2》的启发，他绘制了十余幅壁画，把村庄变成了如今被称作“哪吒村”的地方。介词into后接宾语从句，从句缺少主语，指代事物，用what引导。 【58题详解】 考查副词。句意：这些壁画很快吸引了游客，极大地带动了当地经济的发展。修饰动词boosting需用副词形式，dramatic的副词是dramatically。 【59题详解】 考查独立主格。句意：他回忆道：“画国徽的时候，我的手一直在颤抖。”此处为独立主格结构，my hand与tremble是主动关系，用现在分词trembling。 【60题详解】 考查名词。句意：画作完成时，村里的老年围观者纷纷鼓掌。onlooker为可数名词，此处泛指多位围观者，用复数onlookers。 【61题详解】 考查介词。句意：新年假期期间，该村每日游客量达五万至六万人次，为满足需求还设立了四百多个小吃摊。此处是with+宾语+done的复合结构作伴随状语。 【62题详解】 考查形容词。句意：得益于旅游热潮，村里修整了道路，计划在建设农业基地的同时连通周边景点。修饰名词spots用形容词，scenic spots为固定搭配 “景点”。 【63题详解】 考查时态。句意：迄今为止，吴成岩已经完成了四十多幅壁画，壁画题材包括天坛、长城等地标，还有科学家袁隆平的一幅肖像以及《黑神话：悟空》中的人物。时间状语So far意为“到目前为止”，常搭配现在完成时，主语为单数，用has completed。 【64题详解】 考查冠词。句意同上。portrait是可数名词单数，表泛指，以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a。 【65题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：吴说：“我打算开办一间画室，和其他人一起努力，用艺术填满每一面空白墙壁。”根据句意可知，开办画室，和其他人一起努力的目的是用艺术填满每一面空白墙壁，故用动词不定式to fill作目的状语。 六、应用文详解 First Aid: A Life-Saving Skill for Everyone ①First aid is an essential skill that can make a critical difference in emergencies. ②Whether itˈs a classmate getting injured during sports or someone suddenly feeling unwell, proper first aid can stabilize conditions, ease discomfort and even save lives before professional help arrives.

In a split second, a splash of brown, out of breath, quickly jumped into the lake. It was One-Eyed! It barked, swimming toward Danny with all its might. On spotting One-Eyed, Danny seemed to see a ray of hope, attempting to move towards it instantly. Instinctively, Danny grabbed the tail of One-Eyed. Ultimately, they managed to climb ashore, exhausted. Gazing at One-Eyed in disbelief, Danny patted it tenderly in return. One-Eyed was no longer troublesome; instead, it became a “hero” in his heart. “My hero! Thank you for saving me," Danny said gratefully with watery eyes. “You're my brave guardian angel!” Since that night, “One-Eyed” was nonexistent while “Hero”, as the dog was re-named, became a part of Danny's performance. So attached were they to each other that they became genuine partners. Danny would include his pet as he engaged the audience. Hero also had its own place to lie on-the feet of Danny. While Danny played guitar, Hero would bark happily to harmonize with his owner. What a perfect match! 【解析】 本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了一只叫“独眼”的流浪狗一直跟着街头表演者Danny，其他人以为他们是主人和宠物的关系，而Danny为此感到很苦恼，不想“独眼”跟着他，Danny一心想着如何摆脱这只狗，却没有注意他的脚步，他掉进了湖里，极度恐慌。 【详解】 1．段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“就在这时，远处传来熟悉的狗叫声。”可知，第一段可描写“独眼”如何救Danny。 ②由第二段首句内容““我的英雄！谢谢你救了我，”丹尼含泪感激地说。”可知，第二段可描写Danny被“独眼”救起后他们之间关系的改变。 2．续写线索：跳进水里——Danny被救起——狗改名——成为伙伴 3．词汇激活 行为类 ①跳进：jump into/dive into ②爬上岸：climb ashore/climb up the bank ③改名：re-name/rechristen 情绪类 ①筋疲力尽的：exhausted/dog-tired ②高兴地：happily/delightedly 【点睛】 [高分句型1]So attached were they to each other that they became genuine partners.(so位于句首引起的部分倒装句) [高分句型2]While Danny played guitar, Hero would bark happily to harmonize with his owner.(由while引导的时间状语从句) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025 — 2026学年下期大足中学半期考试 高 二 英 语 试 题 本试卷分第I卷（选择题）和第II卷（非选择题）两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答题前，务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡规定的位置上。 2．答选择题时，必须使用2B铅笔将答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 3．答非选择题时，必须使用0.5毫米黑色签字笔，将答案书写在答题卡规定的位置上。 4．考试结束后，将答题卷交回。 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，并标在试卷的相应位置。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。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

As I slid into the back seat of the car, the warm intonations of the driver’s accent washed over me in a familiar way. I learned that he was a recent West African immigrant with a few young children, working hard to provide for his family. I could relate: I am the daughter of two Ethiopian immigrants who made their share of sacrifices to ensure my success. I told him I was on a college break and headed home to visit my parents. That’s how he found out I go to Harvard. An approving eye glinted at me in the rearview window, and quickly, we crossed the boundaries of rider and driver. I became his daughter, all grown up — the product of his sacrifice. And then came the fateful question: “What do you study?” I answered “history and literature” and the pride in his voice faded, as I knew it might. I didn’t even get to add “and African-American studies” before he cut in, his voice thick with disappointment, “All that work to get into Harvard, and you study history?” Here I was, his daughter, squandering the biggest opportunity of her life. He went on to deliver the age-old lecture that all immigrant kids know. We are to become doctors (or lawyers, if our parents are being generous) — to make money and send money back home. The unspoken demand, made across generations which my Uber driver laid out plainly, is simple: Fulfill your role in the narrative of upward mobility so your children can do the same. I used to feel anxious and backed into a corner by the questioning, but now as a junior in college, I’m grateful for their support more than anything. This holiday season, I’ve promised myself I won’t huff and get annoyed at their inquiries. I won’t defensively respond with “but I plan to go to law school” when I get unrequested advice. I’ll just smile and nod, and enjoy the warmth of the occasion. 24. What disappointed the driver? A. The sacrifice of the author’s parents. B. The author’s choice of major at college. C. The author’s casual attitude towards study. D. The author’s poor academic performance at Harvard. 25. Which word can replace the underlined word “squandering” in Paragraph 4? A. Wasting. B. Replacing. C. Valuing. D. Expecting. 26. Why are immigrant kids expected to become doctors or lawyers according to the passage? A. To gain higher social respect and recognition. B. To fulfill the unachieved dreams of their parents. C. To secure financial success and family advancement. D. To gain easier access to top universities like Harvard. 27. What is the author’s attitude towards the driver’s questioning? A. Critical. B. Tolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Supportive. C A new study in STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) fields reveals how students’ perceptions of effort influence their success. Researchers distinguished between “criterion effort” — simply believing one studies hard — and “comparative effort” — believing one must work harder than peers. The results show that comparative effort can be damaging. When students feel they must work harder than others, they often interpret this as a sign of lacking natural talent. This hurts their “science self-concept” — the belief that they can succeed in science. After analyzing data from 690 chemistry students, researchers found that both male and female students generally viewed extra effort as a signal of lower ability, which weakens their confidence. In contrast, criterion effort is beneficial. Students who believe they work hard, without comparing themselves to others, tend to have a better self-concept. This pattern is particularly strong for women. Women may realize they need to work hard to overcome stereotypes (fixed ideas) that women are weak in science. Consequently, women who simply perceive themselves as working hard tend to perform better and feel more confident about their scientific abilities. However, men respond differently. Their confidence is more influenced by their past actual achievements than by their perception of effort. The study also revealed a feedback loop between effort and grades. Believing in one’s hard work was linked to higher test scores, while comparing with others usually led to lower performance. This finding highlights the importance of early positive experiences for students to understand the link between effort and success. Early STEM classes are famously difficult and often screen out students who feel they cannot succeed. Researchers suggest that students should focus on their own work and progress rather than comparing themselves to peers. Understanding that effort is necessary for success, not a sign of failure, can help talented students remain in the science field. 28. Why is comparative effort harmful to students’ science self-concept? A. It leads to poor grades in exams. B. It implies a lack of natural ability. C. It distracts attention from learning. D. It ignores the actual difficulty of the subject. 29. How does the perception of hard work affect female students? A. They become less confident than men. B. They tend to question their own talent. C. They generally view it as a positive sign. D. They are more influenced by past achievements. 30. What can be inferred about the relationship between effort and achievement? A. High scores always result from hard work. B. Early success can encourage further hard work. C. Men benefit more from effort than women do. D. Comparative effort guarantees better performance. 31. What are researchers advising STEM students to do? A. Avoid difficult introductory courses. B. Realize effort is a sign of failure. C. Focus on their own individual effort. D. Believe in their talent regardless of gender. D The ocean is home to numerous small floating organisms called zooplankton (浮游动物), some measuring as tiny as 0.04 inches long. They spend most of their lives asleep, deep in the ocean. New research has shined a light on how these little creatures are important for helping to protect the planet against global warming. Led by scientists from China, the UK and Canada, the research focused on the Southern Ocean, also known as the Antarctic Ocean, which is about one sixteenth of Earth’s total ocean area. The team studied zooplankton like krill (磷虾), which eat tiny plant-like organisms called phytoplankton (浮游植物) near the sea’s surface. These phytoplankton absorb carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that traps the Sun’s heat in the atmosphere and contributes to climate change. In winter, the zooplankton sink about 1,600 feet below the ocean surface and slowly breathe out the carbon dioxide from the phytoplankton they have eaten, releasing it into the water. This process, called the “seasonal migrant pump”, transports more than 70 million tons of carbon to areas far below the ocean’s surface annually. Because the zooplankton are so deep down, the gas they release takes many years — sometimes even centuries — to rise to the surface and enter Earth’s atmosphere. Angus Atkinson, who worked on the study, explained that without the seasonal migrant pump, the levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would be double what they are now. Guang Yang, another researcher, said zooplankton are “unsung heroes” of carbon storage. The team hopes the study will encourage scientists to include zooplankton in their calculations of how much carbon is stored around the world. It also highlights the importance of protecting the Southern Ocean, where krill are under threat from fishing. Companies fish for krill as they are used in products like health supplements and fish food. Activists are concerned that overharvesting could affect the food chain in the ocean, noting that krill are not only a food source for whales, seals and seabirds but also help fight climate change. 32. What is the focus of the research? A. The threat of krill fishing to Antarctica’s food chain. B. The living habits of zooplankton in the Southern Ocean. C. The new method of measuring carbon storage in oceans. D. The role of tiny ocean creatures in slowing global warming. 33. What can we know about the “seasonal migrant pump” process? A. The whole process happens only in winter. B. Carbon is taken far below the ocean’s surface. C. Zooplankton absorb carbon from the atmosphere. D. Phytoplankton release carbon dioxide in the ocean. 34. Why does carbon dioxide stay in the ocean for a long time? A. Because it is breathed out slowly. B. Because it is transported too deep. C. Because it is released into the water. D.

Practice in low-stakes settings Before showing up at a networking event or your 10-year high school reunion, try making conversation with baristas, waiters, neighbors, or co-workers. 37 “Smaller, manageable social interactions don’t carry as much emotional weight,” Hall-Baldwin says. “It’s just trying to practice without feeling overwhelming pressure.” Over time, you’ll gain a sense of comfort and confidence as you venture into larger social settings. 38 Come up with and rehearse two or three simple conversation starters you can employ when your brain starts freezing. That way, you’ll have something in your back pocket to continue the conversation. You can keep it going without having to freeze and leave to go to the bathroom. One of her favorites: “That’s really interesting — tell me more about that.” If you love traveling, ask people if they’ve gone on any recent vacations, or if you’re a foodie, find out if your conversation partner has tried any great new restaurants. Use the echo technique One of the best habits for someone with social anxiety is paraphrasing what the other person said and then encouraging them to explain in details. For example, if they mention they’re struggling at work, repeat back their words with a question in your voice: “Struggling?” They’ll most likely launch into an explanation of what’s giving them a hard time. 39 Have an exit strategy ready 40 And your departure can arrive as soon as you’d like. You might feel better if you let your friends know from the start that you have an early morning and will be able to stay only until a certain time. It’s also a good idea to brainstorm a few ways to politely wrap up conversations. For example: “It was really nice talking to you — I’m going to check in with Jane.” Doing so can help reduce anxiety about feeling trapped in a conversation, she says. A. Be the first to speak. B. Draft some icebreakers. C. You just need to keep silent and listen. D. The good news about social events is that they all eventually end. E. These short interactions can be a low-pressure way to build self-esteem. F. That can trigger a range of physical, cognitive, and emotional symptoms. G. And that takes some of the pressure off you to feel like you have to come up with original responses. 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四个选项中选出填入空白处的最佳选项。 I’m not sure if laziness is a habit, but I must say that I’m quite good at it.

A circle of audience had formed, nodding and moving slowly to the song. Lying at the feet of the street performer was his most adoring fan: One-Eyed, a white stray (流浪) dog with pieces of brown. Danny felt the name was suitable considering its physical disability. Usually, One-Eyed would bark loudly as Danny performed. Much to his annoyance, people often mistook the pair as owner and pet. At this time, Danny would reply, “My dog? No!”, eyes rolling at the idea. How he wished the dog would leave him alone instead! On a snowy night, while Danny was performing, a bird flew downward, landing into the midst of the crowd. It cooed (咕咕叫) happily as if to harmonize with Danny. Unfortunately, that did not sit well with One-Eyed, which immediately bounced at it and the bird flew away desperately. The unexpected chaos upturned Danny’s hat, which could have been filled with notes and coins from his appreciative audience, leaving it ignored on the ground. “Argh! The hateful dog!” Danny broke down, thinking to himself, “Either the dog goes or I go!” On the next night, Danny tried to find a new place and chanced upon the park. For a while his earnings were good unsurprisingly as there was a steady flow of visitors. However, that didn’t last long. One-Eyed came along and appointed itself as Danny’s guardian. “Argh! Here comes the hateful dog again!” That night, Danny hadn’t made enough money he should have, all thanks to the troublesome dog. Danny was almost mad with One-Eyed. “What should I do? Call an animal shelter?” Torn by this problem, he walked aimlessly by the lake of the park. With all his mind focused on how to get rid of the dog, Danny didn’t watch his steps. Suddenly, he slipped and fell into the lake accidentally. Struggling in the icy water, he cried for help desperately, almost choking to death. Sensing the approach of death, Danny got into overwhelming panic. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just then, a familiar barking was heard in the distance. “My hero! Thank you for saving me,” Danny said gratefully with watery eyes. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
