By the time she got back, there was water all over the kitchen floor. We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after dinner. I soon found myself faced with a pile of thankless dishes in the sink, urging me to get on with it and deliver on my duty. At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student taking a tough course load. Gradually, I realized that, for about 15 minutes every day, I could slow down time and forget everything in the world as my mind, eyes and hands focused on a simple task that would always result in success. We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother greatly. Washing dishes by hand has been more educational than I could have ever imagined. I’m running around stressed most of the day. There are homework, projects, quizzes and tests competing for my attention and time. I’ve caged myself in a prison of my dreams and expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world. However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots of the changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and reflected on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me. 4．Why did the author start washing dishes by hand? A．His mother requested him to do so. B．The old dishwasher broke down. C．He attempted to please his father. D．The new dishwasher was extremely expensive. 5．What did the author think of dish-washing originally? A．It was a stress-reliever. B．It was stressful. C．It was tough. D．It was a money-saver. 6．What does the underlined word “perplexing” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Offending. B．Discouraging. C．Puzzling. D．Inspiring. 7．What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs? A．He regretted devoting too much time to study. B．He decided to give up some of his goals. C．He desired to move to a house with a larger yard. D．He grew more sensitive to the beauty of nature. 【答案】4．B 5．B 6．C 7．D 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者因洗碗机坏了开始手洗碗，一开始觉得有压力，后来却从中受益，对自然之美变得更加敏感。 4．细节理解题。根据第一段中“We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after dinner.(我们电话联系了维修人员，却被告知必须更换洗碗机，新的已预订但是至少要一个月才能到位。我的母亲日程满满，我别无选择只能在每日饭后手工清洗)”可知，作者开始手洗碗是因为旧的洗碗机坏了。 5．细节理解题。根据第二段中“At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student taking a tough course load.(一开始，我洗碗的时候很恼火。作为一名课业繁重的高中生，我有无穷无尽的事情要做，所以我急于完成洗碗的任务)”可知，作者一开始认为洗碗很有压力。 6．词句猜测题。根据第三段中“We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother immensely. (我们确实更换了新的洗碗机，但是我继续坚持饭后手洗碗筷，这perplexing我的妈妈)”可知，作者继续手洗碗的行为让母亲很困惑，所以perplexing的意思是“使困惑”，Puzzling意思一致。 7．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots of the changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and reflected on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me.(然而，每天站在厨房窗户前的同一个地方洗碗，让我重新找回了一些。我的脑海中闪现出厨房窗外院子里不断变化的景色，并思考着我面前这片宇宙中时间的流逝)”可知，从最后两段中可以了解到作者对自然之美变得更加敏感。 C It’s a familiar tale these days: A Canadian quits his exhausting day job to pursue a dream, like opening a coffee shop, and finds freedom and joy. My story is similar, with a twist (转折). It began in 2016, during the last semester of my philosophy undergraduate, when I decided to become a writer after being inspired by modern and classic works I was reading. I earned a journalism master’s from New York University and worked at Toronto Life magazine. I had some success, interviewing important figures and even writing for The New York Times. But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent. Then things changed. Last summer, a friend invited me to coach a small group of 11-year-old volleyball players. I always loved volleyball but had pushed it aside because I thought it couldn’t be a career. I jumped at the chance. Every morning, I trained the kids on passing, setting and serving. I had gone from interviewing people to playing volleyball in the park with kids. Surprisingly, I felt alive again. Volleyball reawakened a spirit of playfulness in me. I didn’t have to sit behind a computer all day. The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence. So I went all in. I found gym space, started running my own clinics and created an organization called Super Volley. Things are going decently well so far. Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh (严峻的) economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame. 8．Why does the author mention a familiar tale at the very beginning? A．To show his big success directly. B．To introduce his similar but different story. C．To explain why he quits his day job. D．To praise the trend of chasing dreams. 9．What challenge arose during the author’s writing career? A．He failed to interview famous people. B．He had no chance to do significant work. C．He suffered constant stress and rent trouble. D．He couldn’t afford the gym training cost. 10．What benefit does the author’s new job have according to Paragraph 4? A．It cannot be replaced by technology. B．It enables him to earn a huge fortune. C．It brings more creative possibilities. D．It earns him more public attention. 11．What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A．He still questions if coaching is a long-term career. B．He is sure his volleyball business will grow soon. C．He sometimes regrets quitting his former writing job. D．He is practical and gains deep joy from his own work. 【答案】8．B 9．C 10．A 11．D 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者放弃写作转行排球教练并收获快乐的故事。 8．推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s a familiar tale these days: A Canadian quits his exhausting day job to pursue a dream, like opening a coffee shop, and finds freedom and joy. My story is similar, with a twist (转折).(如今，这是一个熟悉的故事：一个加拿大人辞去了令人筋疲力尽的日常工作，去追求一个梦想，比如开一家咖啡店，并找到了自由和快乐。我的故事也类似，但有个转折。)”可知，作者在开头提到一个熟悉的故事是为了引出自己相似但不同的故事。 9．细节理解题。根据第二段“But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent.(但在幕后，我压力很大，一直在为房租而挣扎。)”可知，作者在写作生涯中面临的挑战是持续的压力和房租问题。 10．细节理解题。根据第四段“The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence.(家长们按时公平地付给我报酬，而且我的工作不能被人工智能取代。)”可知，好处是作者的新工作不能被技术取代。 11．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Things are going decently well so far. Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh (严峻的) economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame.(到目前为止，事情进展得还算顺利。像许多小企业一样，我受制于不断上涨的生活成本、严峻的经济形势以及可能将周六花在其他事情上的消费者。但我会继续下去，因为这项排球运动给我的回报远远超出了金钱或新闻界的名望。)”可知，作者清楚创业的现实困难，并且从自己的工作中获得了深深的快乐。 D Scientists have known that sperm whales communicate through patterns of clicks known as codas. These sounds are not random. Instead, they form complex sequences that whales use when interacting with members of their family groups. Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery. Hidden within the ocean’s depths is a communication system far more complicated than researchers once imagined. Many experts believe that such a system may even include something similar to a basic language, but no one has been able to fully figure it out so far. To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help. By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy. Inspired by these results, researchers launched Project CETI （Cetacean Translation Initiative）, an international collaboration bringing together marine biologists, linguists, engineers and computer scientists to interpret the communication system of sperm whales. By combining underwater recording devices with powerful AI models, the team hopes to map the hidden structure of whale sounds and eventually understand how whales exchange information. If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist far beyond the human world. In this sense, AI may become more than a technological tool. Properly used, it could help humans listen, perhaps for the first time, to the voices of another species. 12．What can we learn about sperm whales’ codas from paragraph 1? A．They can only be heard in the deep ocean. B．They are simple signals for daily communication. C．They carry meanings that are waiting to be explained. D．They differ greatly from other sea animals’ sound patterns. 13．What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A．The importance of large language models. B．The process of collecting whale recordings. C．The role AI plays in studying whale codas. D．The achievements in whale protection research. 14．What does the author say about Project CETI? A．It has solved the mystery of animal intelligence. B．It aims to make whale research a separate discipline. C．It helps develop advanced underwater recording devices. D．It may improve human understanding of animal language. 15．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．AI: A Bridge to Sperm Whales’ Hidden Communication. B．Sperm Whales: Creatures with Special Languages. C．New Discoveries in Ocean Ecosystem Protection. D．International Efforts to Study Ocean Animals. 【答案】12．C 13．C 14．D 15．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了研究人员借助人工智能分析鲸类声音，并启动 CETI 项目，试图破解抹香鲸的交流系统，这一研究可能加深人类对动物语言与智力的理解。 12．细节理解题。根据第一段“Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery.(然而这些信号的真正含义长期以来一直是个谜)”可知，抹香鲸的尾音承载着有待解读的含义。故选C。 13．主旨大意题。根据第二段“To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help.(为了解开这个长期存在的谜题，科学家们向人工智能寻求帮助)”以及后文对人工智能分析鲸音的介绍可知，本段主要介绍人工智能在研究抹香鲸尾音中所起的作用。故选C。 14．推理判断题。根据第四段“If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist beyond human beings.(如果项目成功，它将改变人类对动物智力的理解。它不仅可能揭示鲸鱼拥有复杂的交流系统，还能表明类似语言的结构并非人类独有)”可知，作者认为CETI项目可能提升人类对动物语言的理解。故选D。 15．主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段“By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy.(通过将数千条鲸鱼的记录输入先进的计算机模型，科学家们已经开始检测出仅凭人类耳朵永远无法识别的模式。与大型语言模型学习人类语音模式的方式类似，人工智能系统可以分析大量的鲸鱼尾音，并识别其中的重复结构。在早期的实验中，这些系统能够预测尾音的类型，甚至能够以惊人的准确性识别哪只鲸鱼产生了尾音。)”可知，本文围绕借助人工智能破解抹香鲸的交流之谜展开，A项“人工智能：通往抹香鲸隐秘交流的桥梁”最能概括文章主旨，适合用作标题。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。 Online learning is more than a trend.

Seeing my 29 , the instructor walked over. “You’re 30 the clay,” he observed gently. “Stop trying to force it to be perfect. Just 31 the material and let it take the shape it wants.” Taking a deep breath, I closed my eyes, 32 my strict expectations, and allowed my hands to move naturally. When I opened my eyes, the bowl wasn’t perfect, but it stood upright, 33 the unique marks of my fingers. I kept that imperfect bowl as a constant 34 that the beauty of a new skill lies in the messy 35 of learning, not just the final result. 21．A．well B．naturally C．fast D．differently 22．A．base B．shelter C．stage D．cage 23．A．explained B．demonstrated C．imagined D．reviewed 24．A．shaping B．designing C．carving D．decorating 25．A．Hesitantly B．Cautiously C．Confidently D．Nervously 26．A．passed B．returned C．struck D．continued 27．A．decisions B．intentions C．abilities D．attempts 28．A．complain B．apologize C．quit D．hide 29．A．disappointment B．relief C．excitement D．guilt 30．A．wasting B．fighting C．blaming D．destroying 31．A．choose B．control C．feel D．guide 32．A．let go of B．lived up to C．held on to D．kept track of 33．A．removing B．bearing C．suffering D．leaving 34．A．proof B．promise C．warning D．reminder 35．A．standard B．process C．purpose D．method 【答案】 21．A 22．D 23．B 24．A 25．C 26．C 27．D 28．C 29．A 30．B 31．C 32．A 33．B 34．D 35．B 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了一位完美主义者通过学习陶艺，领悟到“学习的美好在于充满瑕疵的过程，而非完美的结果”的成长故事。 21．考查副词。句意：如果一开始我无法把某件事做好，我就会干脆就不去做。A. well好地，出色地；B. naturally自然地；C. fast快速地；D. differently不同地。根据首句“I proudly called myself a perfectionist.”明确作者是“完美主义者”，完美主义者的核心特征是追求“把事情做好”。 22．考查名词。句意：但到了三十岁，我终于意识到自己的舒适区已经变成了一座牢笼。A. base基地；B. shelter庇护所；C. stage舞台；D. cage笼子，牢笼。根据上文“But turning thirty made me realize my comfort zone”以及下文“Determined to try something new”可知，前文提到作者因为追求完美而不敢尝试新事物，舒适区已经变成了束缚她的枷锁。后文“决心尝试新事物”也印证了她想要打破这种束缚。 23．考查动词。句意：在第一节课上，老师演示了如何将黏土固定在旋转的陶轮上。A. explained解释；B. demonstrated演示，示范；C. imagined想象；D. reviewed复习。根据后文“His hands moved with effortless grace”描述他的手优雅地移动，毫不费力，说明老师是动手操作示范如何制作陶艺，而非单纯口头解释。 24．考查动词。句意：他的双手动作轻盈自如，几秒钟内就塑造出了一只漂亮的碗。A. shaping塑形；B. designing设计；C. carving雕刻；D. decorating装饰。根据句意以及上文“His hands moved with effortless grace”可知，陶艺制作在转盘上的核心步骤是“给陶土塑形”，“shape a bowl(捏出碗的形状)”是陶艺领域的常用表达。 25．考查副词。句意：自信满满地坐在陶轮前的我，期待着能有类似的结果。A. Hesitantly犹豫地；B. Cautiously谨慎地；C. Confidently自信地；D. Nervously紧张地。根据语境以及下文“expecting similar results”可知，作者作为完美主义者，习惯了把事情做好；且看到老师做得轻松优雅，便自信地期待自己也能做出同样完美的作品。 26．考查动词。句意：然而，灾难降临了。A. passed经过；通过；B. returned返回；C. struck（灾难、不幸）突然降临，打击；D. continued继续。根据下文“My clay flew off the wheel, leaving mud everywhere.”提到陶土飞出转盘，弄得满身是泥，可知，这正是灾难发生的具体表现。 27．考查名词。句意：当我终于成功地把黏土固定在陶轮上时，我试图向上拉它，结果却导致了大量损坏。A. decisions决定；B. intentions意图，目的；C. abilities能力；D. attempts尝试。根据下文“to pull it upwards resulted in ruined masses”及制作陶具的过程可知，把黏土固定在陶轮上后，作者试图向上拉它。 28．考查动词。句意：到了第二周结束时，我已经准备放弃。A. complain抱怨；B. apologize道歉；C. quit放弃；D. hide躲藏。根据上文“I proudly called myself a perfectionist”可知作者是完美主义者，做不好就干脆不做；连续两周的失败让她产生了放弃的念头，这完全符合她的性格逻辑。 29．考查名词。句意：看到我的失望，老师走过来。A. disappointment失望；B. relief解脱；C. excitement兴奋；D. guilt内疚。根据上文“By the end of the second week, I was ready to ________.”作者屡屡失败，准备放弃，此时的情绪必然是失望和沮丧。老师正是看到了她的这种情绪，才走过来给予指导。 30．考查动词。句意：“你是在与黏土作斗争，”他温和地说道。A. wasting浪费；B. fighting对抗，较劲；C. blaming责备；D. destroying破坏。根据后文“Stop trying to force it to be perfect”老师说别强迫它变得完美，说明作者一直在违背陶土的本性，和材料较劲。 31．考查动词。句意：只需感受这种材料，让它按照自己想要的方式成型。A. choose选择；B. control控制；C. feel感受，感知；D. guide引导。根据上文“Stop trying to force it to be perfect.”可知，此处为与前文“force(强迫)”形成对比，老师建议作者顺应材料的本性，去感受陶土的质感，而不是强行控制它。这是陶艺制作的核心技巧，也是文章的转折点。 32．考查动词导短语。句意：我深吸一口气，闭上眼睛，放下了严格的期望，让双手自然地移动起来。A. let go of放开；B. lived up to不辜负；C. held on to坚持，抓住；D. kept track of追踪，记录。根据句意以及下文“and allowed my hands to move naturally”可知，作者听从老师的建议，放下了对完美的严格要求，让手自然地移动。 33．考查动词。句意：当我睁开眼睛时，这个碗并不完美，但它依然笔直地立着，带有我手指的独特痕迹。A. removing移除；B. bearing带有，具有；C. suffering遭受；D. leaving留下。根据上文“the bowl wasn’t perfect, but it stood upright”和下文“the unique marks of my fingers”可知，碗并不完美，带着作者手指独特的印记。 34．考查名词。句意：我保留了那个不完美的碗，以此作为一种永恒的提醒：一项新技能的魅力在于学习过程中的那些混乱与摸索，而不仅仅在于最终的结果。A. proof证明；B. promise承诺；C. warning警告；D. reminder提醒物，提示。根据下文“that the beauty of a new skill lies in...”可知，作者保留这个不完美的碗，是为了时刻提醒自己学习的真谛。 35．考查名词。句意：我保留了那个不完美的碗，以此作为一种永恒的提醒：一项新技能的魅力在于学习过程中的那些混乱与摸索，而不仅仅在于最终的结果。A. standard标准；B. process过程；C. purpose目的；D. method方法。根据句意以及下文“not just the final result”可知，文章主旨正是强调“学习的美好在于充满瑕疵的过程，而非完美的结果”。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或所给单词的正确形式。 Around the world, an increasing number of people are accepting the idea of “becoming Chinese”. Of course, you are not “becoming Chinese” 36 birth or passport, but in practice. “Becoming Chinese” is catching on for some practical reasons. Take electric vehicles (EVs) for example, 37 have evolved into mobile centers for AI-powered digital living. Millions of people around the world now drive EVs 38 (design) in China. “Becoming Chinese” also means 39 (hug) Chinese philosophy of life: practical yet poetic, smart yet kind. Platforms like Xiaohongshu offer simple grounded advice on everyday well-being 40 spread these ideas through actions — a breathing exercise, a zero-waste tip, or a simple skincare routine. Lately, this mindset (思维方式) 41 (adopt) by many in their daily routines as they take up small Chinese habits 42 (refresh) themselves: doing a few minutes of Ba Duan Jin in the morning, drinking warm water or goji berry tea during 43 day, and wearing slippers at home — instead of going barefoot. In a complex world, “being Chinese” offers ways to live better to breathe cleaner, move with more calm, and think with 44 (great) clearness. In this sense, the Chinese way of life has become a new kind of global public good.

For years, I would excuse my mess as a sign of creative genius. Yet, when I arrived at senior high, I hadn’t come up with any impressive reasons for my big mess. And my roommate, Kim, did not seem to appreciate their contribution to my bright future. From the very first day, it was clear that we were opposites. Kim was extremely organized. She labeled everything, and every item she owned had a place — and more impressively, it always stayed there. However, my table was a mess. My pencil holder was always filled with junk — paper, broken rubber and random things. There was maybe one pen, but I certainly didn’t put it there. Neither of us was innocent. Neither of us was willing to give in. She got neater, and I got messier. She would complain about my dirty clothes, and I would complain about the smell of her cleaning spray. She would push my clothes to one side; I would leave one of my books on her tidy desk. It finally exploded one evening. Kim came into the room and froze. One of my muddy shoes — how it got there, I still didn’t know — had somehow found its way beneath her bed. To me, it was just a shoe. To Kim, it was a disaster. Her face tightened. Without a word, she bent down, grabbed the shoe, and threw it toward my side. The shoe missed me and instead hit my books, sending them crashing to the floor. I immediately yelled about her rudeness. She fired back similar frustrations and soon we both ended up rushing to the door, trying to be the first to leave. I’m sure we wouldn’t have stayed another day in that room — if it hadn’t been for the phone call she received. Later that evening, after we had both returned to the room separately, I sat on my bed, angry and she sat on hers, also upset. Then the phone rang. Kim picked it up. Her voice softened, then cracked, and I could tell from her end of the conversation that her grandma had got a serious illness. Losing someone you loved was not something anyone should face alone. I knew that kind of pain. When Kim hung up, she wouldn’t look at me. She crawled under her covers without a word. I could hear her quiet sobbing. What to do? I didn’t want to just walk over to comfort her (I was still upset), but I didn’t want to leave her either. 注意： 1.续写的词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 When I looked at the mess, an idea came to me. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After that evening, we lived peacefully through nice little actions. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 When I looked at the mess, an idea came to me. Deliberately, I began to clean. I remembered how Kim always took care of everything she owned and decided to do the same. I started by tidying up my desk and sorting through the scraps of paper. I took back the book I had carelessly placed on her desk. I picked up the socks and shirts scattered around and I made my bed. I even put some pencils into my pencil holder. Then, I swept the floor, including her side. I got so absorbed into the cleaning that I didn’t even notice that Kim had come out from under the covers. She was watching my every move in surprise, her tears dried and her expression full of disbelief. When I looked up and met Kim’s eyes, she smiled at me and said in a grateful voice “Thanks.” After that evening, we lived peacefully through nice little actions. I woke up one morning to find my desk already tidied — Kim had done it silently. In return, I began taking the time to organize my things quietly, just to show her I was willing to meet her halfway. These small gestures became our new way of communicating. There was a silent understanding between us. The room still wasn’t perfect, and we still had our minor disagreements, but we had learned to live with each other’s differences. She taught me discipline; I taught her patience. She laughed at my “chaotic genius,” and I teased her about her “robot-like” habits. We came to realize that living together wasn’t about who was neat or messy, right or wrong. It was about understanding, helping, and holding on to each other, even when things got messy. And sometimes, that’s enough. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，本文讲述了不爱整洁的作者与十分爱干净的室友Kim多次发生矛盾，最终因一只脏鞋爆发激烈争吵。后来Kim得知奶奶病重，伤心地哭泣。曾有过相似痛苦经历的作者虽仍在生气，却十分关心她，两人紧张的关系迎来转机。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“看着眼前的混乱，我忽然有了个主意。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：作者看到杂乱后主动打扫房间，效仿室友整理自己的物品，甚至清扫了室友那边，这让室友Kim十分惊讶并向她道谢。 ②由第二段首句内容“那天晚上之后，我们用温馨的小举动和平相处。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：那晚之后，两人用小举动互相包容，学会接纳差异，懂得了相处在于理解与扶持。 2.续写线索：作者主动打扫房间——清扫了Kim那边卫生——Kim十分惊讶并向作者道谢——两人学会互相包容和接纳差异——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①打扫：clean/sweep ②拥有：own/possess ③决定做：decide to do /be determined to do 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②感激的：grateful/thankful 【点睛】[高分句型1] She was watching my every move in surprise, her tears dried and her expression full of disbelief. （运用了独立主格结构） [高分句型2] We came to realize that living together wasn’t about who was neat or messy, right or wrong. （运用了that和who引导的宾语从句） 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★考试结束前 2025-2026学年高一下学期5月第三次月考 英语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：120分） 注意事项： 1．本试卷分第Ⅰ卷（选择题）和第Ⅱ卷（非选择题）两部分。答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2．回答第Ⅰ卷时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。写在本试卷上无效。 3．回答第Ⅱ卷时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 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 The Introducing Future Leaders to Opportunities in Water (InFLOW) scholarship program aims to look for the next generation of leaders in the clean water industry.

B About a year ago, my mother turned on the dishwasher and went to the airport to drop off my father who was headed overseas on a work trip. By the time she got back, there was water all over the kitchen floor. We called a repairman, only to be told the dishwasher would have to be replaced. A new one was ordered but it would not arrive for more than a month. As my mother had a tight schedule, I had no choice but to take on the task of washing dishes by hand after dinner. I soon found myself faced with a pile of thankless dishes in the sink, urging me to get on with it and deliver on my duty. At the beginning, I was annoyed when doing the dishes. I was in a rush to be done with them since I had an endless list of things to finish as a high school student taking a tough course load. Gradually, I realized that, for about 15 minutes every day, I could slow down time and forget everything in the world as my mind, eyes and hands focused on a simple task that would always result in success. We did finally get the new dishwasher placed. However, I continued to wash dishes by hand after dinner, perplexing my mother greatly. Washing dishes by hand has been more educational than I could have ever imagined. I’m running around stressed most of the day. There are homework, projects, quizzes and tests competing for my attention and time. I’ve caged myself in a prison of my dreams and expectations, cut off from many aspects of the world. However, standing at the same spot every day in front of the kitchen window washing dishes has allowed me to recover some of it. My mind has taken snap-shots of the changing view over the yard outside the kitchen window and reflected on the passage of time in this sliver of the universe in front of me. 4．Why did the author start washing dishes by hand? A．His mother requested him to do so. B．The old dishwasher broke down. C．He attempted to please his father. D．The new dishwasher was extremely expensive. 5．What did the author think of dish-washing originally? A．It was a stress-reliever. B．It was stressful. C．It was tough. D．It was a money-saver. 6．What does the underlined word “perplexing” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Offending. B．Discouraging. C．Puzzling. D．Inspiring. 7．What can we learn about the author from the last two paragraphs? A．He regretted devoting too much time to study. B．He decided to give up some of his goals. C．He desired to move to a house with a larger yard. D．He grew more sensitive to the beauty of nature. C It’s a familiar tale these days: A Canadian quits his exhausting day job to pursue a dream, like opening a coffee shop, and finds freedom and joy. My story is similar, with a twist (转折). It began in 2016, during the last semester of my philosophy undergraduate, when I decided to become a writer after being inspired by modern and classic works I was reading. I earned a journalism master’s from New York University and worked at Toronto Life magazine. I had some success, interviewing important figures and even writing for The New York Times. But behind the scenes, I was constantly stressed and struggling to make rent. Then things changed. Last summer, a friend invited me to coach a small group of 11-year-old volleyball players. I always loved volleyball but had pushed it aside because I thought it couldn’t be a career. I jumped at the chance. Every morning, I trained the kids on passing, setting and serving. I had gone from interviewing people to playing volleyball in the park with kids. Surprisingly, I felt alive again. Volleyball reawakened a spirit of playfulness in me. I didn’t have to sit behind a computer all day. The parents paid me fairly and on time, and my work could not be replaced by artificial intelligence. So I went all in. I found gym space, started running my own clinics and created an organization called Super Volley. Things are going decently well so far. Like many small businesses, I’m at the mercy of a rising cost of living, a harsh (严峻的) economy and consumers who might devote their Saturdays to something else. But I’ll keep going because this volleyball thing rewards me in ways that go well beyond money or journalistic fame. 8．Why does the author mention a familiar tale at the very beginning? A．To show his big success directly. B．To introduce his similar but different story. C．To explain why he quits his day job. D．To praise the trend of chasing dreams. 9．What challenge arose during the author’s writing career? A．He failed to interview famous people. B．He had no chance to do significant work. C．He suffered constant stress and rent trouble. D．He couldn’t afford the gym training cost. 10．What benefit does the author’s new job have according to Paragraph 4? A．It cannot be replaced by technology. B．It enables him to earn a huge fortune. C．It brings more creative possibilities. D．It earns him more public attention. 11．What can we infer about the author from the last paragraph? A．He still questions if coaching is a long-term career. B．He is sure his volleyball business will grow soon. C．He sometimes regrets quitting his former writing job. D．He is practical and gains deep joy from his own work. D Scientists have known that sperm whales communicate through patterns of clicks known as codas. These sounds are not random. Instead, they form complex sequences that whales use when interacting with members of their family groups. Yet the real meaning of these signals has long remained a mystery. Hidden within the ocean’s depths is a communication system far more complicated than researchers once imagined. Many experts believe that such a system may even include something similar to a basic language, but no one has been able to fully figure it out so far. To solve this long-standing puzzle, scientists have turned to AI for help. By feeding thousands of whale recordings into advanced computer models, scientists have begun to detect patterns that human ears alone could never recognize. Similar to the way large language models learn patterns in human speech, AI systems can analyze enormous collections of whale codas and identify repeating structures within them. In early experiments, these systems were able to predict the type of coda and even identify which whale produced it with remarkable accuracy. Inspired by these results, researchers launched Project CETI （Cetacean Translation Initiative）, an international collaboration bringing together marine biologists, linguists, engineers and computer scientists to interpret the communication system of sperm whales. By combining underwater recording devices with powerful AI models, the team hopes to map the hidden structure of whale sounds and eventually understand how whales exchange information. If successful, the project could transform how humans understand animal intelligence. Not only might it reveal that whales possess a complicated communication system, but it could also show that language-like structures exist far beyond the human world. In this sense, AI may become more than a technological tool. Properly used, it could help humans listen, perhaps for the first time, to the voices of another species. 12．What can we learn about sperm whales’ codas from paragraph 1? A．They can only be heard in the deep ocean. B．They are simple signals for daily communication. C．They carry meanings that are waiting to be explained. D．They differ greatly from other sea animals’ sound patterns. 13．What does paragraph 2 mainly focus on? A．The importance of large language models. B．The process of collecting whale recordings. C．The role AI plays in studying whale codas. D．The achievements in whale protection research. 14．What does the author say about Project CETI? A．It has solved the mystery of animal intelligence. B．It aims to make whale research a separate discipline. C．It helps develop advanced underwater recording devices. D．It may improve human understanding of animal language. 15．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．AI: A Bridge to Sperm Whales’ Hidden Communication. B．Sperm Whales: Creatures with Special Languages. C．New Discoveries in Ocean Ecosystem Protection. D．International Efforts to Study Ocean Animals. 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。 Online learning is more than a trend.
