B Space engineer Barbara Braun is working to turn the dream of living on Mars into reality, starting in a remote part of Utah, a place whose environment has much in common with that of Mars. As a mission officer, she leads missions that copy life on Mars to test how humans can survive in space. Braun studied space engineering at MIT and also became a qualified emergency medical worker — someone trained to give emergency medical care. This skill later proved to be extremely valuable. Her most important test was a two-week mission at Utah’s Mars Desert Research Station. As the health and safety officer, she led explorations in simulated (模拟的) spacesuits, where her team tested technologies like 3D mapping drones and radiation-detecting tools. The mission was full of challenges. The team had to deal with many unexpected problems from broken spacesuits to a broken toilet. Solving such practical issues was a core part of the experience. “There’s no pipe repairer on Mars,” she says, “so you need to be handy.” Braun’s wide range of skills sets her apart. Her training as an emergency medical worker, combined with volunteer work as a firefighter, helped her develop skills needed for space exploration: thinking quickly and staying calm in stressful situations. She believes these practical experiences are as important as her school education. “These experiences prepared me for the unexpected — on Earth and Mars,” she notes, highlighting the connection between her daily life and her space-related work. Looking ahead, Braun acknowledges challenges like radiation but remains optimistic. She believes building a community on Mars will require all kinds of people, not just scientists. “We need pipe repairers, metal workers, and everyday people in space,” she says. To young space lovers, her advice is to read widely and try out different things with passion — you never know which skill will prepare you for space. Through her work, Braun is helping to make humanity’s next space home a reality. 4. Why does Barbara Braun conduct her work in a remote part of Utah? A. It is available to humans. B. It has advanced technology. C. It has emergency medical care. D. It has a similar environment to Mars. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The function of Utah’s Mars Desert Research Station. B. The advanced technologies tested in the Mars mission. C. The Mars simulation mission and its tough difficulties. D. The responsibilities of a health and safety officer in space. 6. What can we learn from Braun’s advice? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Many skills make light work. C. Books are the ladder to success. D. Where there’s passion, there’s success. 7. Which of the following words can best describe Barbara Braun? A. Knowledgeable and mild. B. Ambitious and generous. C. Passionate and all-round. D. Specialized and conventional. C A dropped bag of chips disturbed a cave ecosystem in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico. This cave is almost cut off from the outside world, so introducing anything foreign can be harmful. “Things in the damp cave get wet quickly,” says park guide Ashley. The snack attracts tiny organisms, causing unwanted growth. Soon, small animals like crickets and spiders came to eat, spreading the pollution. Rangers found the bag within hours. “But that can be all it takes,” says Ashley. “I’m sure some crickets got a bit of the snack.” Over 500 million people visit American public lands each year, creating many chances to harm wild places. “When you look at the numbers, it’s incredible,” says Watts, head of the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethic in Colorado, an organization aimed at minimizing human impact on nature. Food waste takes a long time to break down, especially in certain areas. “It takes much longer for an apple core to rot in a desert than in a forest,” says Blye, a teacher at the University of Utah. Leaving waste introduces animals to an unnatural diet and changes their behavior with sometimes disastrous results. Bears who taste garbage and become a threat to humans may have to be put down. “Bears can get used to unnatural food in three weeks,” says Watts. “Everyone loses in this case.” Biological waste is also problematic. Dog waste brings new bacteria into the ecosystem and scares away deer. Meanwhile, human waste and toilet paper introduces dangerous bacteria into water sources. In national parks, trails (小路) are designed to avoid sensitive areas. Stepping off the trail, even for a quick photo, can scare wildlife away. Impacts from many visitors result in long­term damage to nature and wildlife. But people don’t think of that when they see the perfect photo opportunity. “It’s just such a hard thing to resist,” says Blye. The risk to sensitive ecosystems isn’t obvious. “It’s easy to think, oh, there are wild flowers over there. I shouldn’t step on them,” says Blye, but these tiny ecosystems full of microscopic organisms essential to desert life provide many benefits, including reducing the risk of erosion (侵蚀) and helping absorb rainfall, and can take hundreds of years to return to its original state. 8. What does Ashley mean by “But that can be all it takes”? A. The rangers’ work is efficient. B. The damage has been done. C. The cleanup takes a long time. D. The pollution has spread widely. 9. What is a result of foreign waste in public lands? A. A shift in animal behavior. B. A shortage of food supplies. C. A decline in bacterial species. D. An increase in regional conflicts. 10. Why does the writer mention wild flowers in paragraph 5? A. To praise their benefits to desert life. B. To highlight our damage to ecosystems. C. To stress their significance for photography. D. To show our unawareness of nature’s sensitivity. 11. According to this passage, what should we do when traveling? A. Encourage wildlife protection. B. Leave no trace in the wild. C. Promote national park tourism. D. Restore ecological damage. D With rows of sharp teeth and powerful jaws, bull sharks are some of the most aggressive and dangerous sharks on the planet. Despite their fearsome reputation, these massive creatures also seem to have a more sensitive side: Bull sharks form friendships of sorts with other members of their species, just like humans, according to a study published in the journal Animal Behaviour. Marosi, a shark behavior researcher at the University of Exeter in England, and her colleagues spent six years observing 184 bull sharks — 33 males and 151 females — at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve. The creatures were either tagged or identified via unique features, like scars, and were divided into three age categories: subadults (not sexually mature), adults, and advanced adults (past reproductive age). Researchers swam among the sharks five times a week between 2018 and 2023, making detailed notes about the way they socialized with one another and recording videos, during which they wrote down moments when sharks were within one body length of one another and when they swam alongside or behind each other. The data revealed that sharks seemed to prefer to associate closely with some individuals while actively avoiding others. The most common interactions were among sharks of a similar size. Then, females were the most popular companions among both sexes, the team also found. Meanwhile, adults were the most social and seemed to form the core of the social network. Younger sharks likely avoid socializing to reduce the risk of attacks while older ones show reduced sociability because social bonds become less critical to their survival, the researchers assume. Overall, sharks are often thought of as lonely creature. But the findings add to the growing body of research suggesting these creatures are quite varied. In addition to bull sharks, past research has suggested that other shark species may also have complex social lives. Understanding these social interactions could help conservationists better protect sharks threatened by climate change, overfishing, bycatch, pollution and other challenges. 12. What is a feature of the research method? A. Focusing on a specific age group. B. Conducting three lab experiments. C. Using immersive field observation. D. Measuring the body length accurately. 13. What can be concluded about the social behavior of the sharks? A. They prefer to associate with the opposite sex. B. All age groups show equal social engagement. C. Females secure a center place in social network. D. Their social pattern is shaped by survival needs. 14. What is the significance of the research findings? A. They caution against the threats to sharks. B. They guide efficient conservation measures. C. They reveal varied categories of bull sharks. D. They confirm the popular belief about sharks. 15. Which of the following can be a best title? A. Bull Sharks: The Lonely Killers of the ocean B. From Jaws to Friends: The Social Lives of Sharks C. Beware of Sharks: Hidden Dangers in the Ocean D. How to Make Friends with a Shark: A Guide 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。 There’s just something about Labubu. You hear the sound of opening a blind box, see that cheeky smile and suddenly you’re attracted. But once the excitement fades, you can’t help but wonder, why do we keep chasing more, even when we already have enough? Evolutionary psychology gives us a fascinating answer. A lot of what we do comes from what once helped our ancestors survive. ___16___ That could mean the difference between thriving (繁荣) and going without. Over generations, we’ve been wired to find joy in having more than we require. Labubu represents a modern form of this instinct (本能). The blind-box model mirrors ancestral uncertainty: investing effort toward an uncertain payoff with the possibility of a rare, high-status “secret” find. The uncertainty of the reward activates dopamine pathways in the brain. ___17___ This explains why collectors sometimes keep buying long after they’ve achieved their goal. ___18___ When collecting remains a source of joy and social connection, it can be adaptive. Many Labubu collectors share mini furniture, and fan-made content. ___19___ But when over-marketing and rocketing resale prices step in, the whole environment changes. Suddenly, it’s less about the joy of owning something you love and more about showing off or reselling it for a profit. In questioning whether hoarding is simply collecting gone mad, it becomes clear that human psychology hasn’t fundamentally changed. Social media, over-marketing, and resale culture supercharge ancient drives. The challenge is to keep those drives in balance. ___20___ Ask yourself: Does it truly spark joy or creativity? In the end, Labubu is more than a toy. It’s a little mirror, reflecting both our ancient instincts and modern anxieties, and showing just how easily a fun hobby can tip into full-blown craze. A. Collect what brings genuine pleasure. B. But how does collecting slip into disorder? C. Buyers don’t know which figure they will get. D. Back then, collecting was about saving tools or food for later use. E. Collecting becomes a problem when possessions damage our daily life. F. It makes us “want” the experience even when we already “have” enough. G. Such are forms of self-expression that enrich rather than mess up our life. 第三部分：语言运用（共三节，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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A few years ago, I spared a couple of hours from busy academic learning to work in a video store on a daily basis.

It was right next to her school, so she could walk there after classes. Her boss, Mr. Thompson, was very nice and trusted her with lots of important tasks from the beginning. One afternoon, Mr. Thompson gave Mary and her classmate Alex a special task. He wanted them to make a plan to promote a new book series all written by teenagers. “This series is unique because it reflects the voices of young authors,” Mr. Thompson explained. “I’m counting on you two to come up with something that will truly connect with the young readers. You’ll have to finalize your plan before Friday since the school Reading Festival is just around the corner.” Mary was very excited and happy to help. She nodded eagerly. “Absolutely, Mr. Thompson! I can’t wait to get started.” She was so thrilled that she couldn’t stop smiling on her way home. Finally, there was a chance to show everyone what she could do. But working with Alex wasn’t going to be easy. Alex was known for being bossy and having strong opinions. When Mary met up with him at the library to discuss their project, she knew it would be tricky. “I’ve worked on similar projects before, and simple booths (展位) in the school courtyard always work, and we could hand out flyers,” Alex said, without even looking at Mary. Mary frowned (皱眉头) as she thought about Alex’s idea. She knew that booths worked well, but she felt they could do something more exciting to catch the attention of their classmates. The new book series deserved a special promotion. “If we just follow the same old methods, how will this book series stand out?” Mary argued. “What if we have a book reading session with some authors? Or...?” Alex, however, didn’t seem interested in exploring new ideas. He rolled his eyes at Mary’s suggestions for creativity, arguing that they didn’t have the time or resources to try new things. He believed the usual methods would work best. 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。 Despite their different opinions, Mary tried to find a solution that both could agree on. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the activity, Mr. Thompson called them into his office. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一年级练习 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.

As a mission officer, she leads missions that copy life on Mars to test how humans can survive in space. Braun studied space engineering at MIT and also became a qualified emergency medical worker — someone trained to give emergency medical care. This skill later proved to be extremely valuable. Her most important test was a two-week mission at Utah’s Mars Desert Research Station. As the health and safety officer, she led explorations in simulated (模拟的) spacesuits, where her team tested technologies like 3D mapping drones and radiation-detecting tools. The mission was full of challenges. The team had to deal with many unexpected problems from broken spacesuits to a broken toilet. Solving such practical issues was a core part of the experience. “There’s no pipe repairer on Mars,” she says, “so you need to be handy.” Braun’s wide range of skills sets her apart. Her training as an emergency medical worker, combined with volunteer work as a firefighter, helped her develop skills needed for space exploration: thinking quickly and staying calm in stressful situations. She believes these practical experiences are as important as her school education. “These experiences prepared me for the unexpected — on Earth and Mars,” she notes, highlighting the connection between her daily life and her space-related work. Looking ahead, Braun acknowledges challenges like radiation but remains optimistic. She believes building a community on Mars will require all kinds of people, not just scientists. “We need pipe repairers, metal workers, and everyday people in space,” she says. To young space lovers, her advice is to read widely and try out different things with passion — you never know which skill will prepare you for space. Through her work, Braun is helping to make humanity’s next space home a reality. 4. Why does Barbara Braun conduct her work in a remote part of Utah? A. It is available to humans. B. It has advanced technology. C. It has emergency medical care. D. It has a similar environment to Mars. 5. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about? A. The function of Utah’s Mars Desert Research Station. B. The advanced technologies tested in the Mars mission. C. The Mars simulation mission and its tough difficulties. D. The responsibilities of a health and safety officer in space. 6. What can we learn from Braun’s advice? A. Practice makes perfect. B. Many skills make light work. C. Books are the ladder to success. D. Where there’s passion, there’s success. 7. Which of the following words can best describe Barbara Braun? A. Knowledgeable and mild. B. Ambitious and generous. C. Passionate and all-round. D. Specialized and conventional. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章介绍了航天工程师Barbara Braun在犹他州开展火星生存模拟实验的工作，讲述了其模拟任务的挑战、多元技能的重要性，并分享了她对航天探索的看法和给航天爱好者的建议。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第1段中“starting in a remote part of Utah, a place whose environment has much in common with that of Mars.(从犹他州的一个偏远地区开始，这个地方的环境与火星有很多共同之处。)”可知，Barbara Braun在犹他州偏远地区开展工作是因为这里的环境和火星相似。故选D。 【5题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第2段中“Her most important test was a two-week mission at Utah’s Mars Desert Research Station.(她最重要的测试是在犹他州火星沙漠研究站进行的为期两周的任务。)”和“The mission was full of challenges. The team had to deal with many unexpected problems from broken spacesuits to a broken toilet.(这次任务充满了挑战。团队不得不处理许多意想不到的问题，从宇航服破损到马桶故障。)”可知，第二段主要讲述了火星模拟任务以及任务中遇到的艰难困难。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第4段中“To young space lovers, her advice is to read widely and try out different things with passion — you never know which skill will prepare you for space.(对于年轻的航天爱好者，她的建议是广泛阅读，满怀热情地尝试不同的事物——你永远不知道哪种技能会为你的航天之路做好准备。)”可知，Braun的建议体现了掌握多种技能能助力完成航天相关工作，契合“Many skills make light work.(技多不压身)”的内涵。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第3段中“Braun’s wide range of skills sets her apart.(Braun的多种技能让她脱颖而出。)”和第4段中“To young space lovers, her advice is to read widely and try out different things with passion(对于年轻的航天爱好者，她的建议是广泛阅读，满怀热情地尝试不同的事物)”以及她为实现火星居住梦想所做的一系列工作可知，Braun既满怀热情，又具备多方面的能力，是个全面的人。故选C。 C A dropped bag of chips disturbed a cave ecosystem in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico. This cave is almost cut off from the outside world, so introducing anything foreign can be harmful. “Things in the damp cave get wet quickly,” says park guide Ashley. The snack attracts tiny organisms, causing unwanted growth. Soon, small animals like crickets and spiders came to eat, spreading the pollution. Rangers found the bag within hours. “But that can be all it takes,” says Ashley. “I’m sure some crickets got a bit of the snack.” Over 500 million people visit American public lands each year, creating many chances to harm wild places. “When you look at the numbers, it’s incredible,” says Watts, head of the Leave No Trace Center for Outdoor Ethic in Colorado, an organization aimed at minimizing human impact on nature. Food waste takes a long time to break down, especially in certain areas. “It takes much longer for an apple core to rot in a desert than in a forest,” says Blye, a teacher at the University of Utah. Leaving waste introduces animals to an unnatural diet and changes their behavior with sometimes disastrous results. Bears who taste garbage and become a threat to humans may have to be put down. “Bears can get used to unnatural food in three weeks,” says Watts. “Everyone loses in this case.” Biological waste is also problematic. Dog waste brings new bacteria into the ecosystem and scares away deer. Meanwhile, human waste and toilet paper introduces dangerous bacteria into water sources. In national parks, trails (小路) are designed to avoid sensitive areas. Stepping off the trail, even for a quick photo, can scare wildlife away. Impacts from many visitors result in long­term damage to nature and wildlife. But people don’t think of that when they see the perfect photo opportunity. “It’s just such a hard thing to resist,” says Blye. The risk to sensitive ecosystems isn’t obvious. “It’s easy to think, oh, there are wild flowers over there. I shouldn’t step on them,” says Blye, but these tiny ecosystems full of microscopic organisms essential to desert life provide many benefits, including reducing the risk of erosion (侵蚀) and helping absorb rainfall, and can take hundreds of years to return to its original state. 8. What does Ashley mean by “But that can be all it takes”? A. The rangers’ work is efficient. B. The damage has been done. C. The cleanup takes a long time. D. The pollution has spread widely. 9. What is a result of foreign waste in public lands? A. A shift in animal behavior. B. A shortage of food supplies. C. A decline in bacterial species. D. An increase in regional conflicts. 10. Why does the writer mention wild flowers in paragraph 5? A. To praise their benefits to desert life. B. To highlight our damage to ecosystems. C. To stress their significance for photography. D. To show our unawareness of nature’s sensitivity. 11. According to this passage, what should we do when traveling? A. Encourage wildlife protection. B. Leave no trace in the wild. C. Promote national park tourism. D. Restore ecological damage. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了人类活动, 特别是游客在自然保护区的不当行为, 对自然环境造成的负面影响，强调了旅行时应遵循“无痕山林”原则，最小化对自然的破坏。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章画线句子上文“A dropped bag of chips disturbed a cave ecosystem ... so introducing anything foreign can be harmful. (一袋掉落的薯片扰乱了洞穴生态系统……零食吸引微小生物，导致有害生长。)”以及“Soon, small animals like crickets and spiders came to eat, spreading the pollution. (很快，蟋蟀，蜘蛛等小动物前来觅食，污染随之扩散。护林员数小时内就找到了袋子。)”可知，尽管袋子很快被发现，但污染已经造成生态系统已被破坏。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Leaving waste introduces animals to an unnatural diet and changes their behavior with sometimes disastrous results. Bears who taste garbage and become a threat to humans may have to be put down. (遗留垃圾会让动物接触非自然饮食，改变他们的行为，有时会造成灾难性后果。)”可知，外来垃圾会导致动物行为改变。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。由第五段“‘It’s easy to think, oh, there are wild flowers over there. I shouldn’t step on them,” says Blye, but these tiny ecosystems full of microscopic organisms essential to desert life ... can take hundreds of years to return to its original state.’ (布莱说：“人们很容易想，哦，那边有野花，我不应该踩它们。但这些充满对沙漠生命至关重要的微生物的微小生态系统……需要数百年才能恢复原状。)”可知，作者提到野花是为了通过对比，显示出人们对大自然敏感性的认识不足。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据“an organization aimed at minimizing human impact on nature. (一个旨在最小化人类对自然影响的组织)”以及全文对游客不当行为危害的描述可知, 全文通过“薯片袋污染”“垃圾改变动物行为”“游客踩踏敏感区域”等案例, 强调“不留痕迹”的必要性。故选B。 D With rows of sharp teeth and powerful jaws, bull sharks are some of the most aggressive and dangerous sharks on the planet. Despite their fearsome reputation, these massive creatures also seem to have a more sensitive side: Bull sharks form friendships of sorts with other members of their species, just like humans, according to a study published in the journal Animal Behaviour. Marosi, a shark behavior researcher at the University of Exeter in England, and her colleagues spent six years observing 184 bull sharks — 33 males and 151 females — at the Shark Reef Marine Reserve. The creatures were either tagged or identified via unique features, like scars, and were divided into three age categories: subadults (not sexually mature), adults, and advanced adults (past reproductive age). Researchers swam among the sharks five times a week between 2018 and 2023, making detailed notes about the way they socialized with one another and recording videos, during which they wrote down moments when sharks were within one body length of one another and when they swam alongside or behind each other. The data revealed that sharks seemed to prefer to associate closely with some individuals while actively avoiding others. The most common interactions were among sharks of a similar size. Then, females were the most popular companions among both sexes, the team also found. Meanwhile, adults were the most social and seemed to form the core of the social network. Younger sharks likely avoid socializing to reduce the risk of attacks while older ones show reduced sociability because social bonds become less critical to their survival, the researchers assume. Overall, sharks are often thought of as lonely creature. But the findings add to the growing body of research suggesting these creatures are quite varied. In addition to bull sharks, past research has suggested that other shark species may also have complex social lives. Understanding these social interactions could help conservationists better protect sharks threatened by climate change, overfishing, bycatch, pollution and other challenges. 12. What is a feature of the research method? A. Focusing on a specific age group. B. Conducting three lab experiments. C. Using immersive field observation. D. Measuring the body length accurately. 13. What can be concluded about the social behavior of the sharks? A. They prefer to associate with the opposite sex. B. All age groups show equal social engagement. C. Females secure a center place in social network. D. Their social pattern is shaped by survival needs. 14. What is the significance of the research findings? A. They caution against the threats to sharks. B. They guide efficient conservation measures. C. They reveal varied categories of bull sharks. D. They confirm the popular belief about sharks. 15. Which of the following can be a best title? A. Bull Sharks: The Lonely Killers of the ocean B. From Jaws to Friends: The Social Lives of Sharks C. Beware of Sharks: Hidden Dangers in the Ocean D. How to Make Friends with a Shark: A Guide 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍一项最新研究，发现公牛鲨并非独居，也会社交交友，并分析其社交规律及该研究对鲨鱼保护的意义。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Researchers swam among the sharks five times a week between 2018 and 2023, making detailed notes about the way they socialized with one another and recording videos.(研究人员在鲨鱼周围游泳观察，每周五次，详细记录鲨鱼社交行为并拍摄视频)”可知，研究人员深入现场近距离观察，属于沉浸式实地观察。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Younger sharks likely avoid socializing to reduce the risk of attacks while older ones show reduced sociability because social bonds become less critical to their survival, the researchers assume.(幼鲨减少社交以降低被攻击风险，年长鲨鱼社交减少是因为社交关系对生存不再重要)”可知，鲨鱼的社交方式受生存需求影响。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Understanding these social interactions could help conservationists better protect sharks threatened by climate change, overfishing, bycatch, pollution and other challenges.(了解这些社交行为，能够帮助环保人士更好地保护鲨鱼，应对各种生存威胁)”可知，研究成果有助于制定有效的鲨鱼保护措施。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第一段中“Despite their fearsome reputation, these massive creatures also seem to have a more sensitive side: Bull sharks form friendships of sorts with other members of their species, just like humans, according to a study published in the journal Animal Behaviour.(尽管公牛鲨名声凶悍，但这些大型生物也有温情的一面。一项发表在《动物行为》期刊上的研究表明，公牛鲨会像人类一样，与同类建立类似友谊的亲密关系)”可知，文章打破鲨鱼凶狠孤僻的固有印象，重点介绍公牛鲨拥有社交生活、能够结伴交友的新发现。B选项“From Jaws to Friends: The Social Lives of Sharks(从凶猛掠食到结伴交友：揭秘鲨鱼的社交生活)”贴合全文主题，可作为最佳标题。 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。 There’s just something about Labubu. You hear the sound of opening a blind box, see that cheeky smile and suddenly you’re attracted. But once the excitement fades, you can’t help but wonder, why do we keep chasing more, even when we already have enough? Evolutionary psychology gives us a fascinating answer. A lot of what we do comes from what once helped our ancestors survive. ___16___ That could mean the difference between thriving (繁荣) and going without. Over generations, we’ve been wired to find joy in having more than we require. Labubu represents a modern form of this instinct (本能). The blind-box model mirrors ancestral uncertainty: investing effort toward an uncertain payoff with the possibility of a rare, high-status “secret” find. The uncertainty of the reward activates dopamine pathways in the brain. ___17___ This explains why collectors sometimes keep buying long after they’ve achieved their goal. ___18___ When collecting remains a source of joy and social connection, it can be adaptive. Many Labubu collectors share mini furniture, and fan-made content. ___19___ But when over-marketing and rocketing resale prices step in, the whole environment changes. Suddenly, it’s less about the joy of owning something you love and more about showing off or reselling it for a profit. In questioning whether hoarding is simply collecting gone mad, it becomes clear that human psychology hasn’t fundamentally changed. Social media, over-marketing, and resale culture supercharge ancient drives. The challenge is to keep those drives in balance. ___20___ Ask yourself: Does it truly spark joy or creativity? In the end, Labubu is more than a toy. It’s a little mirror, reflecting both our ancient instincts and modern anxieties, and showing just how easily a fun hobby can tip into full-blown craze. A. Collect what brings genuine pleasure. B. But how does collecting slip into disorder? C. Buyers don’t know which figure they will get. D. Back then, collecting was about saving tools or food for later use. E. Collecting becomes a problem when possessions damage our daily life. F. It makes us “want” the experience even when we already “have” enough. G. Such are forms of self-expression that enrich rather than mess up our life. 【答案】16. D 17. F 18. B 19. G 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章探讨了人们为何会沉迷于收集Labubu盲盒玩具的心理机制。 【16题详解】 根据前文“A lot of what we do comes from what once helped our ancestors survive. (我们所做的很多事情，都是源于那些曾经帮助我们的祖先生存下来的策略。)”提到进化心理学认为人类的很多行为源于祖先的生存需求，同时结合主题“收集”这一行为，设空句应讲述祖先的收集行为。选项D“Back then, collecting was about saving tools or food for later use. (那时，收集物品主要是为了日后使用而保存工具或食物。)”承接了“祖先生存”这一语境，解释了祖先收集行为的目的。故选D项。 【17题详解】 前文“The uncertainty of the reward activates dopamine pathways in the brain. (奖励的不确定性会激活大脑中的多巴胺通路。)”提到“多巴胺通路被激活”，那么设空句紧跟其后，继续讲述激活多巴胺通路导致的后果。选项F“It makes us ‘want’ the experience even when we already ‘have’ enough. (它让我们即便已经拥有了足够的东西，仍“渴望”去体验那未曾拥有的事物。)”解释了多巴胺通路被激活后的心理效果，且与后文“This explains why collectors sometimes keep buying long after they’ve achieved their goal. (这就解释了为什么收藏者有时即便已经达成目标之后，仍会继续不断地购买。)”进一步构成“因果关系”。故选F项。 【18题详解】 设空句为该段的首句，应是该段的中心主旨句。该段前部内容“When collecting remains a source of joy and social connection, it can be adaptive. (当收集物品成为一种带来快乐和促进社交的活动时，它就具有一定的适应性了。)”提到“收集带来快乐时具有适应性”，而后半段“But”句内容“But when over-marketing and rocketing resale prices step in, the whole environment changes. Suddenly, it’s less about the joy of owning something you love and more about showing off or reselling it for a profit. (但一旦过度营销和飞涨的转售价格介入，整个环境就会发生改变。突然之间，人们关注的焦点不再在于拥有自己喜爱之物所带来的快乐，而更多地在于炫耀或者通过转售来获取利润。)”则讲述了关于Labubu的“过度营销、炒价”问题，将“合理收集”与“无序收集” 形成对比，从而解释了“收集如何陷入无序”。选项B“But how does collecting slip into disorder? (但收藏物品怎么会变得无序起来呢？)” 以设问引出下文对两种情况的分析，起到承上启下的作用。故选B项。 【19题详解】 根据前文“Many Labubu collectors share mini furniture, and fan-made content. (许多Labubu收藏者会共享小型家具以及自制内容。)”提到了Labubu收藏者的行为，设空处应是对这些行为进行积极解读。选项G“Such are forms of self-expression that enrich rather than mess up our life. (这些自我表达的形式丰富了我们的生活，而不是把我们的生活搞砸了。)”提到了积极意义，且句中“Such”指代前文具体行为。故选G项。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Ask yourself: Does it truly spark joy or creativity? (问问自己：这样做真的能带来快乐或激发创造力吗？)”提出了一个关于“Labubu收集”的本质的疑问，设空句作为前一句，应是对收集的本质进行概括总结。选项A“Collect what brings genuine pleasure. (收集能带来真正快乐的东西。)”是收集的本质概括，置于该空后，后文在逻辑表达上与其紧密衔接。故选A项。 第三部分：语言运用（共三节，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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A few years ago, I spared a couple of hours from busy academic learning to work in a video store on a daily basis.

Ancient artifacts with unique historical significance often have great ________ (商业的) value. （根据汉语提示单词拼写） 【答案】commercial 【解析】 【详解】句意：具有独特历史意义的古代文物往往具有巨大的商业价值。此处应为形容词作定语修饰名词value，根据汉语提示“商业的”，可知应为commercial。 50.

It was right next to her school, so she could walk there after classes. Her boss, Mr. Thompson, was very nice and trusted her with lots of important tasks from the beginning. One afternoon, Mr. Thompson gave Mary and her classmate Alex a special task. He wanted them to make a plan to promote a new book series all written by teenagers. “This series is unique because it reflects the voices of young authors,” Mr. Thompson explained. “I’m counting on you two to come up with something that will truly connect with the young readers. You’ll have to finalize your plan before Friday since the school Reading Festival is just around the corner.” Mary was very excited and happy to help. She nodded eagerly. “Absolutely, Mr. Thompson! I can’t wait to get started.” She was so thrilled that she couldn’t stop smiling on her way home. Finally, there was a chance to show everyone what she could do. But working with Alex wasn’t going to be easy. Alex was known for being bossy and having strong opinions. When Mary met up with him at the library to discuss their project, she knew it would be tricky. “I’ve worked on similar projects before, and simple booths (展位) in the school courtyard always work, and we could hand out flyers,” Alex said, without even looking at Mary. Mary frowned (皱眉头) as she thought about Alex’s idea. She knew that booths worked well, but she felt they could do something more exciting to catch the attention of their classmates. The new book series deserved a special promotion. “If we just follow the same old methods, how will this book series stand out?” Mary argued. “What if we have a book reading session with some authors? Or...?” Alex, however, didn’t seem interested in exploring new ideas. He rolled his eyes at Mary’s suggestions for creativity, arguing that they didn’t have the time or resources to try new things. He believed the usual methods would work best. 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。 Despite their different opinions, Mary tried to find a solution that both could agree on. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the activity, Mr. Thompson called them into his office. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Despite their different opinions, Mary tried to find a solution that both could agree on. She suggested a combined approach: setting up a booth as Alex proposed, but also including a small book reading session at lunch break. “We could have a couple of student authors read excerpts from the new series,” she explained. Reluctantly, Alex agreed, seeing that a compromise might be the best way forward. For the next few days, Mary and Alex worked together, dividing the tasks and planning the promotion. By Friday, they had set up the booth with colorful decorations and arranged the book reading session. After the activity, Mr. Thompson called them into his office. He was beaming with pride. “You both did an excellent job,” he said. “The reading session was a big hit, and many students showed interest in the new series.” Alex smiled and nodded, recognizing Mary’s contribution. “I have to admit, your idea for the book reading was a good one,” he said. Mary felt relieved and happy that their hard work paid off. They realized that by combining their ideas, they could create something truly remarkable. From that day forward, they worked well as a team, respecting each other’s strengths and learning from each other. 【解析】 【导语】本文以任务为线索展开，讲述了Mary获得了心仪的兼职工作，并和同学Alex合作推广青少年作者的新书系列，虽然他们在推广方法上有分歧，但最后通过合作和妥协，取得了一次成功的推广活动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二段描述了活动后Mr. Thompson对他们的表扬，Alex也承认了Mary的创意，两人达成和解并学会尊重彼此的意见。”可知，第一段主要描述了Mary和Alex在推广活动上的分歧，以及Mary提出的妥协方案并获得了Alex的认可。 ②由第二段首句内容“活动结束后，汤普森先生把他们叫到他的办公室。”可知，第二段描述了活动后Mr. Thompson对他们的表扬，Alex也承认了Mary的创意，两人达成和解并学会尊重彼此的意见。 2.续写线索：提出了一个综合方案——玛丽和亚历克斯一起工作，分配任务并计划推广——受到赞扬——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①建议：suggest /recommend ②展示：show/showcase ③微笑：smile /beam ④建立：set up/establish 情绪类 ①快乐的：happy/pleased/delighted ②非凡的：remarkable/extraordinary 【点睛】[高分句型1] Mary felt relieved and happy that their hard work paid off.
