The event was started in 1998 by the National Education Association. One of its main goals is to introduce children to different books with characters they can relate to and worlds different from their own. Here are some ways you can take part in the celebration. Host a book exchange Ask friends or family members to bring a middle-grade book they would recommend. Lay the books out on a table and give everyone a chance to read the plot summaries. Try making the exchange extra fun with snacks, like gummy worms. Everyone can go home with one or more new books. Read as a group Plan a “read-in” where a group reads together. You can also ask a teacher to hold one in a classroom. Ask everyone to bring a book and read a short passage aloud. This is a great way to spark (引发) conversations and discover new books for your reading list. Explore this year’s theme The 2026 theme for Read Across America is kindness, so this is a great time to choose titles with that focus, such as The Invisible Boy by Trudy Ludwig. Reflect on what you’ve read You might enjoy keeping track of your reading in a journal or on a computer. Think about what stood out to you about the story, the setting, or the characters and reflect on what you’ve learned. For more reading suggestions, please check out the “50 books, 50 states” list which can be found at kids.theweekjunior.com/bookclub.

I had grown used to that sinking feeling ever since losing my wife, Amy, to cancer in 2024-the sight of an old cup could suddenly make my world fall apart. But this time, I was falling for real. Julianna shouted, “Daddy, get out now!” After a hard struggle, I finally pulled myself out. As I walked downstairs, I thought about how differently Amy would have dealt with things. She had always been the family’s guide — calm and dependable — while I was careless and always depended on her to keep my life in order. After she was gone, I tried to become a focused solo parent, yet I kept making mistakes. I forgot rubbish night until it attracted huge wild animals; I burned carrots until smoke filled the kitchen; I even let our WiFi get disconnected, and Julianna asked, “You’re pretty bad at this, aren’t you?” Her words made me think. That was when I began to understand that bravery — the kind Amy had always shown — was not about avoiding mistakes, but about facing them when it mattered most. The morning after I fell, I discovered that someone had covered Julianna’s yard sale signs with red tape (胶带). Without thinking twice, I walked down the street and caught a young man who told me he did it for “friendly competition”, but this time I stood my ground. To my surprise, people nearby gathered and spoke ill of him. When I told Julianna what happened, she laughed and said, “Now you’re getting embarrassing.” But I didn’t mind. For the first time, I understood that bravery did not belong only to my wife — It had been inside me all along. This has been the hardest year of my life, but I am learning that laughter is how we tell ourselves we might get through this together. 4. Which word can best describe the father’s life after his wife’s death? A. Peaceful. B. Lonely. C. Organized. D. Struggling. 5. What does the father learn from his wife? A. Avoiding making any mistakes in daily life. B. Braving challenges when they appear. C. Depending on others when raising children. D. Keeping life orderly as his wife did. 6. How did the father deal with the man who damaged his daughter’s signs? A. By removing the red tape by himself. B. By asking neighbors for help. C. By taking a clear stand against the man. D. By debating heatedly with the man. 7. What message does the story mainly convey? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Difficulties make a man wise. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了一位父亲在妻子因癌症去世后独自抚养女儿，生活中频繁犯错、陷入挣扎，但逐渐从妻子身上领悟到真正的勇敢是面对困难而非避免错误，最终发现勇气一直存在于自己内心的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“After she was gone, I tried to become a focused solo parent, yet I kept making mistakes. I forgot rubbish night until it attracted huge wild animals; I burned carrots until smoke filled the kitchen; I even let our WiFi get disconnected, and Julianna asked, “You’re pretty bad at this, aren’t you?” (她离开后，我努力想做一名用心尽责的单亲家长，可状况不断、屡屡出错。我总忘了夜间扔垃圾，结果引来了大批野生动物；煮胡萝卜时把菜烧糊，厨房里浓烟弥漫；就连家里的无线网络都被我弄断了。朱莉安娜见状问道：“你实在不太擅长打理这些事，对吧？”)”可知，妻子去世后父亲的生活充满错误和困难，处于挣扎状态。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“That was when I began to understand that bravery — the kind Amy had always shown — was not about avoiding mistakes, but about facing them when it mattered most. (就在那时，我开始明白，那种像艾米那样展现出的勇敢，并非是逃避错误，而是在最关键的时刻勇敢地面对错误。)”可知，这位父亲从妻子身上学到的是在挑战出现时勇敢面对。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据四段“The morning after I fell, I discovered that someone had covered Julianna’s yard sale signs with red tape (胶带). Without thinking twice, I walked down the street and caught a young man who told me he did it for “friendly competition”, but this time I stood my ground.  (我摔倒后的第二天，我发现有人用红色胶带把朱莉安娜的旧货售卖告示牌给遮住了。我毫不犹豫地沿着街道走去，拦住了一个年轻人，他告诉我这是出于“友好竞争”的目的，但这一次我坚决不让步。)”可知，这位父亲明确反对了损坏标牌的男子。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕一位父亲在妻子去世后经历生活困境（犯错、处理标牌事件等），逐渐领悟到勇气的真谛（面对困难而非避免错误），说明困难让他成长、变得明智。 C The UK’s first geothermal (地热) power station has recently started operating in Cornwall, England. Geothermal Engineering Ltd (GEL), the company that runs the power station, says it, as a form of renewable energy, will provide power for up to 10,000 homes. Geothermal energy comes from heat trapped deep under the Earth’s surface. To reach this heat, GEL had to drill the deepest well in the UK. The project took nearly 20 years to prepare and cost about £50 million. The station works by sending water three miles down into the well, where the temperature is about 200℃. As the water travels through these hot rocks, it picks up heat and is then pumped back to the surface. The heated water, now at around 190℃, creates strong steam pressure. This steam is used to turn big wheels called turbines, which produce electricity. After that, the water is cooled and sent back underground to start again. The electricity is sold to Octopus Energy, which will use it to power homes. Besides electricity, the station also produces lithium (锂) , a valuable metal used to make batteries. GEL says the lithium can be taken from the water without creating carbon dioxide — a gas that causes climate change when there is too much of it in the air. The station is the UK’s first big producer of lithium. At first, it will produce about 100 tonnes of lithium each year. GEL plans to slowly increase this to 18,000 tonnes a year, which would be enough to make 250, 000 electric car batteries. Ryan Law, GEL’s founder, says the station is important for the UK’s energy supply. “Unlike wind and solar, we are on all the time — 24/7 electricity,” he said. He also noted that the cost of producing electricity from geothermal energy stays the same, unlike gas and oil prices, which can go up and down. GEL has plans for more geothermal stations in Cornwall and is waiting for the government’s green light for two new sites. 8. What does the underlined word “drill” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. To dig a hole. B. To look for water. C. To clean a well. D. To preserve heat. 9. How does the power station produce electricity? A. By using the power of hot steam. B. By collecting lithium in the water. C. By burning hot rocks underground. D. By sending cold water directly into homes. 10. Why does the author mention lithium in paragraph 4? A. To explain how electricity is made. B. To show another benefit of the station. C. To compare different types of metals. D. To describe the process of making batteries. 11. What is Ryan Law’s attitude towards geothermal energy? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Critical. 【答案】8. A 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了英国首个地热发电站在康沃尔郡开始运营的情况，包括其工作原理、产生的锂副产品以及地热能源的优势。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Geothermal energy comes from heat trapped deep under the Earth’s surface. To reach this heat, GEL had to drill the deepest well in the UK. (地热能来自地球表面以下深处的热量。为了获取这种热量，GEL不得不在英国“drill”最深的井。)”可知，要打井获取地底热能，drill表示钻井、挖洞，与“To dig a hole”同义。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The heated water, now at around 190℃, creates strong steam pressure. This steam is used to turn big wheels called turbines, which produce electricity. (加热的水，现在大约在190℃，产生强大的蒸汽压力。这些蒸汽被用来转动被称为涡轮机的大轮子，从而产生电力。)”可知，发电站通过热蒸汽来发电。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Besides electricity, the station also produces lithium, a valuable metal used to make batteries. GEL says the lithium can be taken from the water without creating carbon dioxide — a gas that causes climate change when there is too much of it in the air.(除了电力，该站还生产锂，一种用于制造电池的贵重金属。GEL表示，锂可以从水中提取而不会产生二氧化碳—— 一种在空气中含量过高就会引发气候变化的气体。)”可知，本段先说明电站可以生产锂，接着介绍了锂的用途和价值。由此可知，本段提到锂是为了展示电站的另一项好处。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Ryan Law, GEL’s founder, says the station is important for the UK’s energy supply. “Unlike wind and solar, we are on all the time — 24/7 electricity,” he said. He also noted that the cost of producing electricity from geothermal energy stays the same(GEL的创始人Ryan Law表示，该站对英国的能源供应很重要。他说：“不像风能和太阳能，我们全天候供电。”他还指出，利用地热能发电的成本保持不变)”以及“GEL has plans for more geothermal stations(GEL计划建造更多的地热电站)”可知，Ryan Law对地热能持支持态度。 D Migraines are a kind of headache that affect more than 1 billion people worldwide. About 30% of people with migraines do not get better with today’s treatments. Now, scientists are revisiting a long-forgotten idea that might lead to new treatments. In the 1990s, researchers believed that a chemical called substance P played a key role in causing migraines. However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years. Recently, a research team led by Messoud Ashina at the University of Copenhagen decided to take another look. They found that when substance P was given to people, it caused headaches and changes in blood vessels (血管) linked to migraines. Their results support the idea that substance P in fact plays a role. So why did the earlier drugs fail? According to scientists, those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. This means a broader approach might be more effective. Scientists decided to revisit strategies that target substance P. Today, they can produce monoclonal antibodies — a type of drug that can stop specific molecules (分子) directly. These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people. Now, researchers are also testing drugs that target other molecules, including substance P and another one called PACAP, whose early results show promise. As Peter Goadsby, a migraine expert, puts it, “Finding the next thing that will benefit the hundreds of millions of people who are not well treated by today’s method remains an important challenge.” Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief. 12. Why did researchers give up on substance P in 1990s? A. Five drugs targeting it showed no clear benefit. B. The chemical was found to be unrelated to migraines. C. A new treatment for migraines proved more effective. D. The research team led by Ashina failed to find evidence. 13. What did the research team find about the earlier drugs? A. They resulted in serious vessel damage. B. They worked on the wrong target molecules. C. They produced the opposite effect. D. They partly stopped the action of substance P. 14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. The failure of previous studies on CGRP. B. The production process of CGRP-targeting drugs. C. The serious side effects of monoclonal antibodies. D. The effectiveness and limitation of CGRP-targeting drugs. 15. What is the best title for the passage? A. History of Migraine Research B. New Hope for Treating Migraines C. Hard Struggle against substance P D. Limits of Current Migraine Drugs 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了偏头痛在全球的患病现状，围绕P物质展开相关研究回顾，分析了早期靶向药物失败的原因，同时介绍了现有 CGRP类药物的成效与不足，并指出靶向多种分子的新药物研究为偏头痛治疗带来了新希望。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years. (然而，五种针对P物质的实验药物未能达到预期效果。因此，这一想法被搁置了25年。)”可知，研究者放弃P物质是因为五种靶向药物没有显示出明确疗效。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. (那些药物只作用于P物质的一部分，而P物质实际上通过多条通路发挥作用。)”可知，早期药物只部分阻断了P物质的作用，而非完全抑制。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people. (这些疗法已被证实能够对抗另一种与偏头痛相关的分子——CGRP。这种药物于 2018 年首次推出，改变了偏头痛的治疗方式。对于许多患者而言，它能将偏头痛发作的天数减少一半。然而，仍有高达 40%的人对该药物无效。)”可知，本段既讲了CGRP靶向药物的有效性，也讲了其局限性。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕科学家重新审视P物质理论、开发新疗法展开，结尾“Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief. (科学家们希望同时阻断多条通路能帮助更多患者缓解症状。)”点明了文章核心——为偏头痛治疗带来新希望，B选项“治疗偏头痛的新希望”符合文章大意，适合作标题。 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。 How does the funny bone work? If you hit your elbow (肘部) against a hard surface, you’ll feel a strange, and often uncomfortable feeling. We call the part of the body that experiences this feeling the “funny bone”. ___16___ It is actually a nerve (神经). To understand why this happens, we must first look at how nerves work. Think of nerves as biological wires that carry signals between your body and your brain. For example, if you touch something sticky, your nerves send a message to the brain to tell it about the feeling. ___17___ Then, it sends a signal back to your fingers, telling them to wipe the stuff off. The “funny bone” is specifically the ulnar nerve. It runs from your shoulder down to your hand. At the elbow, this nerve passes through a narrow space against the bottom of your upper arm bone. ___18___ So, when you hit your elbow, you are momentarily pressing this nerve against the bone. This impact sends a painful feeling from your elbow all the way to your little finger. ___19___ Some people believe it is named for the “funny” or strange feeling you experience after the impact. Others think the name comes from a word game — the upper arm bone is called the humerus, which sounds exactly like the word “humorous”. Despite its funny name, hitting your funny bone is actually very painful. It is certainly not something you would want to do on purpose. ___20___ Take a deep breath or lose yourself in a quick joke, and the discomfort will soon pass. A. However, this part is not a bone at all. B. It is not protected by much muscle or fat. C. Most people find the name quite enjoyable. D. The brain processes this information at once. E. The nerve is responsible for controlling your heart rate. F. You might wonder why this part has such an unusual name. G. Luckily, the uncomfortable feeling usually disappears very quickly. 【答案】16. A 17. D 18. B 19. F 20. G 【解析】 【导语】文章主要解释了“滑稽骨”的工作原理，指出它实际上是一根神经，并说明了撞击肘部产生奇怪感觉的原因以及这一名称的可能来源。 【16题详解】 前文“We call the part of the body that experiences this feeling the “funny bone”. (我们称身体中经历这种感觉的部位为“滑稽骨”。)”指出人们把这个部位叫做“滑稽骨（funny bone）”。后文“It is actually a nerve. (它实际上是一根神经。)”指出这个部位实际上不是骨头而是神经（nerve）。A选项“However, this part is not a bone at all. (然而，这个部位根本不是骨头。)”在“bone”和“nerve”之间起到了转折和过渡作用，使前后文形成逻辑衔接。 【17题详解】 前文“For example, if you touch something sticky, your nerves send a message to the brain to tell it about the feeling. (例如，如果你碰到黏糊糊的东西，你的神经会向大脑发送信息，告诉它这种感觉。)”说明神经将信息发送给大脑。后文“Then, it sends a signal back to your fingers, telling them to wipe the stuff off. (然后，它向你的手指发回信号，告诉它们把东西擦掉。)”写明大脑在接收信息后会发出指令。D选项“The brain processes this information at once. (大脑立刻处理这些信息。)”填补了“大脑接收信息”和“大脑发出指令”之间的中间环节，使前后形成清晰的逻辑链条。 【18题详解】 前文“At the elbow, this nerve passes through a narrow space against the bottom of your upper arm bone. (在肘部，这根神经穿过一个紧贴上臂骨底部的狭窄空间。)”表明这根神经在肘部的位置非常特殊。B选项“It is not protected by much muscle or fat. (它没有受到很多肌肉或脂肪的保护。)”中的It指代前文中的this nerve，并解释了后文“So, when you hit your elbow, you are momentarily pressing this nerve against the bone. (所以，当你撞到手肘时，你瞬间将这根神经压在了骨头上。)”所描述的撞击会直接压迫到神经的原因，与前后文构成因果关系。 【19题详解】 后文“Some people believe it is named for the “funny” or strange feeling you experience after the impact. Others think the name comes from a word game — the upper arm bone is called the humerus, which sounds exactly like the word “humorous”. (有些人认为它是以撞击后你体验到的“滑稽”或奇怪的感觉命名的。其他人认为这个名字来自一个文字游戏——上臂骨叫做humerus，其发音与“humorous”完全相同。)”解释“funny bone”这个名字的两种可能来源。F选项“You might wonder why this part has such an unusual name. (你可能会想知道为什么这个部位有这样一个不寻常的名字。)”引出后文对名字由来的解释，符合后文逻辑。 【20题详解】 前文“Despite its funny name, hitting your funny bone is actually very painful. (尽管名字很有趣，但撞到滑稽骨实际上非常痛苦。)”表明撞到滑稽骨会带来痛苦。后文“Take a deep breath or lose yourself in a quick joke, and the discomfort will soon pass. (深呼吸或用个笑话分散注意力，这种不适感很快就会过去。)”表明这种不适感很快会消失。G选项“Luckily, the uncomfortable feeling usually disappears very quickly. (幸运的是，这种不舒服的感觉通常很快就会消失。)”与前文形成转折，且其中的“disappears very quickly”与后文的“will soon pass”形成呼应。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I never liked eating breakfast in restaurants, as it always made me feel a little out of place.

It was a freezing -20℃ morning, but it felt even colder because of the wind. I was sitting in my car, seat warmer, with the heater on high, hoping the high part of my coat protected me from his view. I was driving my child to school because neither of us could bear another minute of the freezing cold. But he was there, as he always was, standing in his bright yellow jacket. His scarf was hard because of ice, his white hair hidden under a cap, his eyes sharp and fully watchful. I felt sorry for our crossing guard—two or three decades older than me—was standing in the cutting wind, while my child and I stayed comfortable in the warm car. He was there for the only purpose of keeping my child and his fellow classmates safe, yet I felt bad that I chose driving over walking, refusing him the simple joy of watching us cross safely. He has been the crossing guard at this intersection for three years. The first morning we met, I was surprised by his friendliness—by his desire to talk to us. Before him, I only gave crossing guards a quick thank-you. Living in a fast-paced city, I rarely spoke to strangers, but he broke that distance. He asked my kids’ names and grades, chatting with them daily about pizza days or holiday plans, treating us as people, not passersby. I was impressed by his relaxed way of talking, and by how naturally he treated us as friends rather than just people passing by. Over time, I began to realize our crossing guard knew everyone who passed his corner—children, parents, regular dog walkers alike. He not only remembered names but also every little detail: which child had a math test, who lost a tooth, and when kids were absent or had events. Each morning, he called out greetings in every direction. 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。 But one morning, a boy ran into the traffic without noticing an oncoming speeding car. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Beyond safety, he turned the crossing into a warm place despite busy traffic and the cold. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: But one morning, a boy ran into the traffic without noticing an oncoming speeding car. My heart skipped a beat. Suddenly, that sharp whistle tore through the air. Our guard rushed into the lane, his vest flashing. He thrust his sign high, forcing the car to screech to a halt. He pulled the boy back, knelt down, and straightened his backpack. A smile bloomed on his face, calming the child. Then, holding his hand, he guided him across the street with a pat on the shoulder before he returned to post. Beyond safety, he turned the crossing into a warm place despite busy traffic and the cold. Mornings were never calm — drivers honked, people hurried. But he stood firm, greeting all with a smile. He shared jokes with parents. Neighbors stopped to chat. Inspired by his warmth, I lowered my window, letting the biting air rush in, and waved back with a genuine smile. I was no longer hiding. I finally stepped out to embrace the world. The biting air rushed in, but I did not shrink away. I had found warmth not in shelter, but in a man who stopped traffic. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者对护学员的态度变化为线索展开，讲述了一位在寒冷街头守护孩子们安全的护学员，不仅认真履行职责，更用友善和温暖打破了人之间的冷漠。在一次小男孩险些冲入车流的危急时刻，护学员果断救下孩子；作者也最终被他感染，走出了自己封闭冰冷的世界。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“但有一天早上，一个小男孩没有注意到一辆飞驰而来的汽车，跑进了车流中。”可知，第一段可描写护学员在危急时刻迅速反应、救下小男孩的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“尽管车流繁忙、天气寒冷，除了安全，他还把路口变成了一个温暖的地方。”可知，第二段可描写护学员日常的温暖举动，以及作者被感染后反应。 2.续写线索：男孩冲进车流——护学员紧急处置——拉回男孩——护送过马路——日常守护——感染作者——作者反应 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①冲进：rush into/lunge into/dart into ②引导：guide/lead/escort ③坚守岗位：stand firm/stay put/remain steadfast 情绪类： ①温暖：warmth/mildness ②真诚的：genuine/sincere 【点睛】[高分句型1] Then, holding his hand, he guided him across the street with a pat on the shoulder before he returned to post.（运用了before引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] Inspired by his warmth, I lowered my window, letting the biting air rush in, and waved back with a genuine smile.（运用了过去分词短语作状语，以及现在分词短语作状语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年高一5月题库 英语试题 考生注意: 1. 本试卷满分 150分, 考试时间 120分钟。 2. 考生作答时, 请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后, 用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑; 非选择题请用直径 0.5 毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答, 超出答题区域书写的答案无效, 在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 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段录音。每段录音后有一个小题, 从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后, 你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

Host a book exchange Ask friends or family members to bring a middle-grade book they would recommend. Lay the books out on a table and give everyone a chance to read the plot summaries. Try making the exchange extra fun with snacks, like gummy worms. Everyone can go home with one or more new books. Read as a group Plan a “read-in” where a group reads together. You can also ask a teacher to hold one in a classroom. Ask everyone to bring a book and read a short passage aloud. This is a great way to spark (引发) conversations and discover new books for your reading list. Explore this year’s theme The 2026 theme for Read Across America is kindness, so this is a great time to choose titles with that focus, such as The Invisible Boy by Trudy Ludwig. Reflect on what you’ve read You might enjoy keeping track of your reading in a journal or on a computer. Think about what stood out to you about the story, the setting, or the characters and reflect on what you’ve learned. For more reading suggestions, please check out the “50 books, 50 states” list which can be found at kids.theweekjunior.com/bookclub.

B One evening in California, while helping my daughter, Julianna, prepare for a yard sale, I stepped carelessly between the wooden boards and felt the floor give way beneath me. I had grown used to that sinking feeling ever since losing my wife, Amy, to cancer in 2024-the sight of an old cup could suddenly make my world fall apart. But this time, I was falling for real. Julianna shouted, “Daddy, get out now!” After a hard struggle, I finally pulled myself out. As I walked downstairs, I thought about how differently Amy would have dealt with things. She had always been the family’s guide — calm and dependable — while I was careless and always depended on her to keep my life in order. After she was gone, I tried to become a focused solo parent, yet I kept making mistakes. I forgot rubbish night until it attracted huge wild animals; I burned carrots until smoke filled the kitchen; I even let our WiFi get disconnected, and Julianna asked, “You’re pretty bad at this, aren’t you?” Her words made me think. That was when I began to understand that bravery — the kind Amy had always shown — was not about avoiding mistakes, but about facing them when it mattered most. The morning after I fell, I discovered that someone had covered Julianna’s yard sale signs with red tape (胶带). Without thinking twice, I walked down the street and caught a young man who told me he did it for “friendly competition”, but this time I stood my ground. To my surprise, people nearby gathered and spoke ill of him. When I told Julianna what happened, she laughed and said, “Now you’re getting embarrassing.” But I didn’t mind. For the first time, I understood that bravery did not belong only to my wife — It had been inside me all along. This has been the hardest year of my life, but I am learning that laughter is how we tell ourselves we might get through this together. 4. Which word can best describe the father’s life after his wife’s death? A. Peaceful. B. Lonely. C. Organized. D. Struggling. 5. What does the father learn from his wife? A. Avoiding making any mistakes in daily life. B. Braving challenges when they appear. C. Depending on others when raising children. D. Keeping life orderly as his wife did. 6. How did the father deal with the man who damaged his daughter’s signs? A. By removing the red tape by himself. B. By asking neighbors for help. C. By taking a clear stand against the man. D. By debating heatedly with the man. 7. What message does the story mainly convey? A. Every cloud has a silver lining. B. Practice makes perfect. C. Difficulties make a man wise. D. Actions speak louder than words. C The UK’s first geothermal (地热) power station has recently started operating in Cornwall, England. Geothermal Engineering Ltd (GEL), the company that runs the power station, says it, as a form of renewable energy, will provide power for up to 10,000 homes. Geothermal energy comes from heat trapped deep under the Earth’s surface. To reach this heat, GEL had to drill the deepest well in the UK. The project took nearly 20 years to prepare and cost about £50 million. The station works by sending water three miles down into the well, where the temperature is about 200℃. As the water travels through these hot rocks, it picks up heat and is then pumped back to the surface. The heated water, now at around 190℃, creates strong steam pressure. This steam is used to turn big wheels called turbines, which produce electricity. After that, the water is cooled and sent back underground to start again. The electricity is sold to Octopus Energy, which will use it to power homes. Besides electricity, the station also produces lithium (锂) , a valuable metal used to make batteries. GEL says the lithium can be taken from the water without creating carbon dioxide — a gas that causes climate change when there is too much of it in the air. The station is the UK’s first big producer of lithium. At first, it will produce about 100 tonnes of lithium each year. GEL plans to slowly increase this to 18,000 tonnes a year, which would be enough to make 250, 000 electric car batteries. Ryan Law, GEL’s founder, says the station is important for the UK’s energy supply. “Unlike wind and solar, we are on all the time — 24/7 electricity,” he said. He also noted that the cost of producing electricity from geothermal energy stays the same, unlike gas and oil prices, which can go up and down. GEL has plans for more geothermal stations in Cornwall and is waiting for the government’s green light for two new sites. 8. What does the underlined word “drill” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. To dig a hole. B. To look for water. C. To clean a well. D. To preserve heat. 9. How does the power station produce electricity? A. By using the power of hot steam. B. By collecting lithium in the water. C. By burning hot rocks underground. D. By sending cold water directly into homes. 10. Why does the author mention lithium in paragraph 4? A. To explain how electricity is made. B. To show another benefit of the station. C. To compare different types of metals. D. To describe the process of making batteries. 11. What is Ryan Law’s attitude towards geothermal energy? A. Doubtful. B. Unclear. C. Supportive. D. Critical. D Migraines are a kind of headache that affect more than 1 billion people worldwide. About 30% of people with migraines do not get better with today’s treatments. Now, scientists are revisiting a long-forgotten idea that might lead to new treatments. In the 1990s, researchers believed that a chemical called substance P played a key role in causing migraines. However, five experimental drugs that targeted substance P failed to work as expected. As a result, this idea was put aside for 25 years. Recently, a research team led by Messoud Ashina at the University of Copenhagen decided to take another look. They found that when substance P was given to people, it caused headaches and changes in blood vessels (血管) linked to migraines. Their results support the idea that substance P in fact plays a role. So why did the earlier drugs fail? According to scientists, those drugs only acted on one part of substance P, which, however, works through more than one pathway. This means a broader approach might be more effective. Scientists decided to revisit strategies that target substance P. Today, they can produce monoclonal antibodies — a type of drug that can stop specific molecules (分子) directly. These are already proven to work against another migraine-related molecule called CGRP. First introduced in 2018, CGRP drugs have changed migraine treatment. They can cut the number of migraine days in half for many patients. However, they do not work for up to 40 percent of people. Now, researchers are also testing drugs that target other molecules, including substance P and another one called PACAP, whose early results show promise. As Peter Goadsby, a migraine expert, puts it, “Finding the next thing that will benefit the hundreds of millions of people who are not well treated by today’s method remains an important challenge.” Scientists are hopeful that cutting off several pathways at once could help more patients find relief. 12. Why did researchers give up on substance P in 1990s? A. Five drugs targeting it showed no clear benefit. B. The chemical was found to be unrelated to migraines. C. A new treatment for migraines proved more effective. D. The research team led by Ashina failed to find evidence. 13. What did the research team find about the earlier drugs? A.

If you hit your elbow (肘部) against a hard surface, you’ll feel a strange, and often uncomfortable feeling. We call the part of the body that experiences this feeling the “funny bone”. ___16___ It is actually a nerve (神经). To understand why this happens, we must first look at how nerves work. Think of nerves as biological wires that carry signals between your body and your brain. For example, if you touch something sticky, your nerves send a message to the brain to tell it about the feeling. ___17___ Then, it sends a signal back to your fingers, telling them to wipe the stuff off. The “funny bone” is specifically the ulnar nerve. It runs from your shoulder down to your hand. At the elbow, this nerve passes through a narrow space against the bottom of your upper arm bone. ___18___ So, when you hit your elbow, you are momentarily pressing this nerve against the bone. This impact sends a painful feeling from your elbow all the way to your little finger. ___19___ Some people believe it is named for the “funny” or strange feeling you experience after the impact. Others think the name comes from a word game — the upper arm bone is called the humerus, which sounds exactly like the word “humorous”. Despite its funny name, hitting your funny bone is actually very painful. It is certainly not something you would want to do on purpose. ___20___ Take a deep breath or lose yourself in a quick joke, and the discomfort will soon pass. A. However, this part is not a bone at all. B. It is not protected by much muscle or fat. C. Most people find the name quite enjoyable. D. The brain processes this information at once. E. The nerve is responsible for controlling your heart rate. F. You might wonder why this part has such an unusual name. G. Luckily, the uncomfortable feeling usually disappears very quickly. 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节, 满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I never liked eating breakfast in restaurants, as it always made me feel a little out of place.

It was a freezing -20℃ morning, but it felt even colder because of the wind. I was sitting in my car, seat warmer, with the heater on high, hoping the high part of my coat protected me from his view. I was driving my child to school because neither of us could bear another minute of the freezing cold. But he was there, as he always was, standing in his bright yellow jacket. His scarf was hard because of ice, his white hair hidden under a cap, his eyes sharp and fully watchful. I felt sorry for our crossing guard—two or three decades older than me—was standing in the cutting wind, while my child and I stayed comfortable in the warm car. He was there for the only purpose of keeping my child and his fellow classmates safe, yet I felt bad that I chose driving over walking, refusing him the simple joy of watching us cross safely. He has been the crossing guard at this intersection for three years. The first morning we met, I was surprised by his friendliness—by his desire to talk to us. Before him, I only gave crossing guards a quick thank-you. Living in a fast-paced city, I rarely spoke to strangers, but he broke that distance. He asked my kids’ names and grades, chatting with them daily about pizza days or holiday plans, treating us as people, not passersby. I was impressed by his relaxed way of talking, and by how naturally he treated us as friends rather than just people passing by. Over time, I began to realize our crossing guard knew everyone who passed his corner—children, parents, regular dog walkers alike. He not only remembered names but also every little detail: which child had a math test, who lost a tooth, and when kids were absent or had events. Each morning, he called out greetings in every direction. 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。 But one morning, a boy ran into the traffic without noticing an oncoming speeding car. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Beyond safety, he turned the crossing into a warm place despite busy traffic and the cold. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
