It wasn’t special — just a white face with black numbers. For three years, the clock has 1 caught my attention. It was simply there, like the desks or chairs. Almost 2 started to feel different when it came to Grade Nine. The lessons got harder, the days got longer and our stress became greater. And the clock? It seemed the only thing that remained the same and started to catch my eye slowly. During maths tests when my mind went blank, I’d raise my head and look at it. Its hands kept moving as usual — neither faster nor slower. It never 3 and it never stopped. It just did what it was supposed to do, day after day. One afternoon, I had to stay after school to finish some exercises. With the classroom 4 , the clock tick sounded loud. I stared at it, and for the first time it led me into deep thought. This clock had been hanging over here for years, watching thousands of students come and go. It watched us laugh, try, 5 , and try again. And through it all, it just kept telling time, 6 no one was watching and praising it. That was simply its job. I remembered what my mother told me, “The 7 thing isn’t doing something big. It’s doing the small thing, every single day, without anyone’s 8 .” Maybe that was it. 9 by the clock, I turned back to my desk and opened my textbook. I knew countless tasks and tough challenges still lay ahead. But somehow, I felt like I could 10 all difficulties and keep moving forward. The clock would not stop and neither would I. 1．A．sometimes B．hardly C．always D．usually 2．A．nothing B．something C．anything D．everything 3．A．rushed B．slept C．rang D．forgot 4．A．noisy B．clean C．empty D．bright 5．A．succeed B．fail C．argue D．fight 6．A．because B．so C．but D．though 7．A．smallest B．biggest C．hardest D．easiest 8．A．help B．experience C．doubt D．cheer 9．A．Touched B．Understood C．Disappointed D．Punished 10．A．look through B．get through C．take up D．give up 【答案】 1．B 2．D 3．A 4．C 5．B 6．D 7．C 8．D 9．A 10．B 【导语】本文讲述了作者从教室墙上那只默默运转的普通时钟身上获得人生感悟的故事，时钟日复一日、不疾不徐的工作状态让作者明白了坚持做好平凡小事的道理，并获得了直面困难、继续前行的力量。 【详解】1．句意：三年来，这个时钟几乎没有引起过我的注意。 根据后文“It was simply there, like the desks or chairs.”可知，时钟就像教室里的桌椅一样普通，几乎不会被人留意，应选用hardly。always“总是”，与语境表达的“不被关注”的含义完全相反。 2．句意：到了九年级的时候，几乎一切都开始变得不一样了。 根据后文“The lessons got harder, the days got longer and our stress became greater.”可知，九年级时课程、时间、压力等各方面都发生了变化，应选用everything。nothing“没有什么”，与后文描述的诸多变化相矛盾。 3．句意：它从不匆忙，也从不停止。 根据前文“Its hands kept moving as usual — neither faster nor slower.”可知，时钟的指针始终以不变的速度移动，既不会变快也不会变慢，应选用rushed。slept“睡觉”，与时钟运转的语境无关。 4．句意：教室里空无一人，时钟的滴答声听起来格外响亮。 根据前文“One afternoon, I had to stay after school to finish some exercises.”可知，放学后其他同学都离开了，教室变得空旷，所以时钟的声音才会显得很大，应选用empty。noisy“吵闹的”，与“滴答声响亮”的场景不符。 5．句意：它看着我们欢笑、尝试、失败，然后再一次尝试。 根据后文“and try again”可知，此处描述的是学习过程中“尝试-失败-再尝试”的循环，应选用fail。succeed“成功”，与“再一次尝试”的逻辑不符。 6．句意：在这一切过程中，它只是一直报时，尽管没有人注视和赞美它。 根据前后文逻辑，“它一直报时”和“没有人注视赞美它”之间是让步关系，应选用though。because表示因果关系，so表示结果关系，均不符合此处逻辑。 7．句意：最难的事情不是做大事，而是每天都坚持做小事，不需要任何人的喝彩。 根据后文“It’s doing the small thing, every single day”可知，此处强调的是日复一日坚持做好小事的难度，而非做大事的“重要性”，应选用hardest。biggest侧重“最大的/最重要的”，与语境表达的“坚持小事的难度”不符，若用biggest则会与后文语义逻辑矛盾。 8．句意：是每天都做这件小事，不需要任何人的喝彩。 根据前文“no one was watching and praising it”可知，时钟默默工作不需要别人的赞美，此处应选用与praising含义相近的cheer。help“帮助”，与语境表达的“获得认可”无关。 9．句意：被时钟打动，我转身回到书桌前，打开了课本。 根据前文作者对时钟的思考和感悟可知，作者被时钟默默坚持的精神所触动，应选用Touched。Disappointed表示失望的，与作者此时受到鼓舞的情绪相反。 10．句意：但不知为何，我觉得我能够克服所有困难，继续前进。 根据后文“keep moving forward”可知，此处表示作者有信心战胜困难，应选用get through。give up“放弃”，与“继续前进”的积极态度相矛盾。 第二部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Here are four books to help you learn something new each day for a year. An Animal a Day: Read this book every day to meet a lot of different animals including penguins, lions and polar bears. You’ll learn about how to help endangered animals and how to protect their habitats (栖息地). A Word a Day: 365 Words for Curious Minds: If you’re interested in language, you’re sure to enjoy this book. It has a different word to discover each day, such as “rewild” on Earth Day. You’ll find out what each word means, how to pronounce it, and its history. Black History for Every Day of the Year: Written by award-winning historian, David Olusoga with the help of his family, this book is a treasure of black history. You can find out about key people and the meaningful cultural moments through the ages. Everything Under the Sun: All Around the World: This book answers 366 curious questions asked by children from all over the world. Find out how roller skates were first invented, how frogs jump, and where the happiest place in the world is. All kinds of people provide the answers. 11．What can you learn from An Animal a Day? A．Animal habits. B．Animal protection. C．Animal poems. D．Animal history. 12．If Maria is most interested in the book A Word a Day, what subject may be her favorite? A．History. B．Math. C．English. D．Physics. 13．What do the four books have in common? A．They are about animals. B．They introduce history. C．They teach new things daily. D．They answer kids’ questions. 【答案】11．B 12．C 13．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了四本适合一年中每天学习新知识的书籍及其主要内容。 【详解】11．表格第一行“You’ll learn about how to help endangered animals and how to protect their habitats (栖息地).”说明这本书可以教你如何帮助濒危动物、保护它们的栖息地，即动物保护相关知识。 12．表格第二行“If you’re interested in language, you’re sure to enjoy this book. It has a different word to discover each day, ... You’ll find out what each word means, how to pronounce it, and its history.”表明这本书和语言、词汇学习相关，因此推测Maria最喜欢的科目可能是英语。 13．文章开头“Here are four books to help you learn something new each day for a year.”表明这四本书的共同点是每天教你新知识。 B Nowadays, AI is very common in our daily life. It is widely used in many areas, from chat apps to smart home devices, and even in our schoolwork. Unlike most common AI apps that only give answers, some new AI tools can help people do real tasks. One of them is OpenClaw, an open-source AI tool created by an Austrian engineer. It can clean up documents, send emails and make forms all by itself. Many people, from experts to beginners, can’t wait to try it. Lucas Wagner, a college student, is one of them. After OpenClaw was set up on his computer, he felt like entering a totally new world. “OpenClaw’s source code (源代码) is open to everyone. That means I can change it or add new uses freely, which makes me feel it is like a helper that never stops growing,” he said excitedly. “And it has a good memory. Over time, it knows what I like and does what I want. Therefore, my life has become much more convenient.” However, the rapid development of OpenClaw has also raised worries. Its ability to deal with problems independently is also exactly where its risks come from, because the tool requires high system permissions (权限). An Internet expert once warned, “The more permissions you give, the more careful you must be. Once it gets your photos and payment information, it may bring unexpected safety troubles.” OpenClaw makes AI from simple “talking” to real “doing”, which is a big step forward for AI tools. It offers us great convenience in life, yet it can never replace our real thinking and personal effort. If you choose to give it a try, always learn to control it before it controls you. 14．What is OpenClaw? A．An AI engineer. B．A popular chat app. C．A smart home device. D．An open-source AI tool. 15．Why did Lucas feel like entering a totally new world after using OpenClaw? A．He could learn how to create new apps. B．He moved to a completely new living place. C．He had a new and special experience of using AI. D．He got valuable skills to work as a computer expert. 16．What possible safety problem may OpenClaw bring us? A．It may cause the computer to go wrong. B．It may take the place of people’s own thinking. C．It may stop us from using other Internet tools. D．It may make users’ private payment information public. 17．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To remind people to use OpenClaw wisely. B．To advise people to make full use of AI tools. C．To show people how to use AI tools correctly. D．To tell people the importance of using AI tools. 【答案】14．D 15．C 16．D 17．A 【导语】本文主要介绍了一款名为OpenClaw的开源AI工具的功能、优点、安全隐患，并提醒人们要理智使用。 【详解】14．由第一段“OpenClaw, an open-source AI tool created by an Austrian engineer”可知，OpenClaw是一个开源AI工具。 15．根据第二段Lucas的话“OpenClaw’s source code is open to everyone... I can change it or add new uses freely... it has a good memory... my life has become much more convenient.”可知，OpenClaw的开源性、可定制性以及良好的记忆功能给他的生活带来了极大便利，这种独特的功能让他感觉像进入了“一个全新的世界”，即拥有了一种新奇特别的AI使用体验。 16．由第三段“Once it gets your photos and payment information, it may bring unexpected safety troubles”可知，安全隐患主要涉及隐私信息泄露。 17．最后一段总结道“It offers us great convenience in life, yet it can never replace our real thinking and personal effort. If you choose to give it a try, always learn to control it before it controls you.”，这表明文章的目的是提醒人们在使用OpenClaw时要保持理智，明智使用。 C The sixth planet was ten times larger than the last one. There the little prince met an old gentleman who was writing a big book. “What is that big book?” said the little prince. “What are you doing?” “I am a geographer,” the old gentleman said to him. “And I am writing about all the seas, mountains and deserts.” “That is interesting,” said the little prince. “So could you tell me something about your planet?” “I couldn’t tell you,” said the geographer. “But you are a geographer!” “Exactly,” the geographer said. “But I am not an explorer. We don’t have any explorers here. I don’t go out to count the seas, mountains and deserts. Instead, I receive explorers from other planets in my study. I ask them questions, and I write down their answers.” The geographer’s eyes suddenly shone with excitement. “But you… you come from far away! You are an explorer! You shall describe your planet to me!” “Oh, where I live,” said the little prince, “it is all so small. I have a flower on my planet.” “We do not record flowers,” said the geographer. “Why is that? The flower is the most beautiful thing on my planet” “We do not record them,” said the geographer, “because they are ephemeral.” “What does that mean… ‘ephemeral’?” “Geographies,” said the geographer, “are the books about eternal things. The thing that matters to us is the mountain. It doesn’t change. But your flower is different. It will not last long. It is ephemeral.” “My flower is ephemeral,” the little prince said to himself, “and I have left her on my planet, all alone!” But he took courage and asked, “What place would you advise me to visit now?” “The planet Earth,” replied the geographer. “I promise you will like it.” And the little prince went away, thinking of his flower. 18．What was the little prince doing? A．He was travelling around planets. B．He was getting ready for a book. C．He was sharing his experiences. D．He was searching for flowers. 19．What does the word “ephemeral” mean in the passage? A．Beautiful and strong. B．Lasting for a short time. C．Important and valuable. D．Lasting for a long time. 20．Which sentence should go in the in the last paragraph? A．“Then I must go back to my planet at once,” the little prince cried. B．“Flowers are not worth remembering,” the geographer added. C．The geographer felt sorry for the little prince. D．That was his first moment of regret. 21．From the passage, we can know ________. A．the old man travelled to many other planets B．the old man got information from explorers C．the little prince knew the sixth planet very well D．the little prince left his flower on the planet Earth 【答案】18．A 19．B 20．D 21．B 【导语】本文出自《小王子》，记叙了小王子游历星球遇见地理学家，得知鲜花转瞬即逝后满心伤感，对方建议他前往地球。 【详解】18．根据文章开头“The sixth planet was ten times larger than the last one. There the little prince met…”可知，小王子已经离开了上一颗星球来到了第六颗星球，说明他正在各个星球间旅行。 19．地理学家解释“地理书记录永恒的事物（eternal things）”，例如不会改变的山脉，而花朵“不会持久（will not last long）”，因此“ephemeral”意为“短暂的”。选项B“持续时间短”符合文意。 20．前文中小王子得知花朵“短暂易逝”，并意识到“自己把她独自留在星球上”，内心应充满懊悔。空格后“但他鼓起勇气询问下一个目的地”，表明此处需填入体现他情绪转折的句子。D项“那是他第一次感到后悔”衔接自然，符合语境。 21．根据文中地理学家所说“Instead, I receive explorers from other planets in my study. I ask them questions, and I write down their answers.”可知，地理学家是从探险家那里获取信息的。 D Have you ever thought that a hobby like bird-watching could change your brain? Scientists have found that experienced birdwatchers develop brain differences that help them recognize birds quickly. This shows that bird-watching can change the functioning of the brain, just like learning a language or playing an instrument does. When we learn or practice a new skill, our brain reorganizes itself, making certain pathways in our brain stronger and smoother. This ability is called neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement. To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds. The task was repeated 72 times. As was expected, expert birders did much better. On average, they correctly recognized 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local birds. Beginners only got 44% correct for both kinds. Brain scans showed that, when recognizing birds, expert birders had more activity than beginners in brain areas related to object recognition, attention, and memory. This showed that continuous practice in bird-watching reshapes the brain. The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. “If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,” said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study. 22．In what way does the writer explain neuroplasticity in paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing two ideas. C．By giving examples. D．By telling a personal story. 23．How did the scientists at York University carry out the study? A．Scanned the brains of the birders and musicians. B．Tested the birders' hearing and body movement. C．Asked the birders to name 4 birds in 10 seconds. D．Compared the birders' ability to recognize birds. 24．Why did Erik Wing mention playing the guitar in the last paragraph? A．To encourage birdwatchers to play the guitar. B．To suggest another hobby that improves the brain. C．To let readers know guitar requires more attention. D．To introduce only musical instruments as a better choice. 25．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain B．How Scientists Studied Birdwatchers C．Bird-watching Improves Mental Health D．The Secret to an Expert Birdwatcher 【答案】22．C 23．D 24．B 25．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了观鸟这项爱好如何通过神经可塑性改变大脑结构，同时提到其他类似的技能型爱好也可能带来相似的大脑益处。 【详解】22．原文第二段提到“Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement.”，作者通过列举音乐家和运动员的例子，来解释神经可塑性这一概念，因此作者是通过举例的方式解释这一概念的。 23．原文第三段提到“To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds.”，由此可知，约克大学的科学家通过对比专家和新手观鸟者识别鸟类的能力来开展研究。 24．原文第五段提到“The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. ‘If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,’ said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study.”，由此可知，Erik Wing提到弹吉他是为了推荐另一种能改善大脑的爱好，它和观鸟一样能带来相似的大脑益处。 25．全文围绕观鸟如何通过持续练习重塑大脑展开，介绍了相关研究和原理，因此最佳标题是“Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain”。 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 English learners shouldn’t think that mistakes are terrible. Alex Poole, one American language teacher, tells language learners that they should see mistakes as signs of progress. One common problem is that English learners think too much about mistakes. Alex said, “ 26 ” 27 The first is to look for misunderstanding. For example, perhaps a person gives an unusual reply to something you said. You can ask him or her directly what the problem is. The second one is that if you know a native (本土的) speaker well, you can ask him or her about the kinds of things that could cause communication problems. When it comes to writing, English learners should think about mistakes in a different way. 28 When English learners write something, Alex advises that they think about the main ideas first. 29 After writing something, they can use their lists to look for mistakes. According to Alex, you can create your own “philosophy(哲学体系) of mistakes”. 30 He says, “As a language learner, I try to correct and learn from my mistakes. I look for things which cause communication problems, and I just have to live with that.” A．Alex explains his philosophy of mistakes to us. B．When I’m making mistakes, I feel I’m not trying hard. C．Alex asks them to keep a list of common mistakes in writing. D．Then, they should think about how to put those ideas in order. E．When speaking with a native English speaker, it’s easy to make two kinds of mistakes. F．If you have a mistake, the only thing you must worry about is whether it causes communication problems. G．When you’re speaking with a native English speaker, there are two kinds of things you can do to look for mistakes. 【答案】26．F 27．G 28．C 29．D 30．A 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英语老师Alex Poole关于英语学习者如何看待和处理错误的建议，涵盖了口语交流和书面写作两个方面，鼓励学习者建立自己的‘错误哲学’。 【详解】26．根据文章第1段“One common problem is that English learners think too much about mistakes.（一个常见的问题是英语学习者过度考虑错误。）”及前文提到错误是进步的标志可推知，此处应填入 Alex 关于不必过度担心错误的观点。选项F符合语境，强调关注沟通而非错误本身。 27．根据文章第2段“The first is to look for misunderstanding... The second one is...（首先是寻找误解……其次是……）”可推知，空缺处应引出这两种做法。选项G"中的two kinds of things与下文的The first…The second…相呼应。 28．根据文章第3段“After writing something, they can use their lists to look for mistakes.（写完东西后，他们可以利用他们的清单来查找错误。）”可推知，前文应提到建立清单的建议。选项C中的list与后文their lists对应。 29．根据文章第3段“Alex advises that they think about the main ideas first.（亚历克斯建议他们先思考主要观点。）”可推知，此处应承接“首先”之后的步骤。选项D中的Then与first构成逻辑顺序，those ideas指代前文的main ideas。 30．根据文章第4段“According to Alex, you can create your own ‘philosophy of mistakes’.（根据亚历克斯的说法，你可以创造自己的‘错误哲学’。）”及后文“He says…（他说……）”可推知，此处应过渡到Alex解释他的哲学。选项A承上启下，引出下文的具体引语。 第II卷(主观题共55分) 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31．We should be ________ (礼貌) to others and respect different opinions. 【答案】polite 【详解】句意：我们应该对他人保持礼貌，尊重不同的意见。根据汉语提示可知，空缺处应为“polite”，形容词作表语，故填polite。 32．The secret garden is ________ (藏) behind the old wall, filled with colorful flowers and happy memories. 【答案】hidden 【详解】句意：秘密花园隐藏在老墙的后面，装满了五颜六色的花和幸福的回忆。hide“藏”，此处应用过去分词形式，构成被动语态。故填hidden。 33．The door ________ (隔开) the warm living room from the cold snowy yard outside. 【答案】separates 【详解】句意：门将温暖的客厅与外面寒冷多雪的院子隔开。separate“使隔离，使隔绝”，动词，此处句子描述客观事实，用一般现在时，主语“The door”是第三人称单数，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填separates。 34．The doctor advised him to take the medicine three t________ a day. 【答案】(t)imes 【详解】句意：医生建议他一天吃三次药。根据“The doctor advised him to take the medicine three…a day.”的语境并结合首字母提示可知，此处指每天吃药的次数，time“次”，根据空前的“three”可知，此处用复数形式。故填(t)imes。 35．I have two extra tickets.

The researchers used these 39 to learn about the dogs, such us how much time they spent with adults, children and other dogs. They found that dogs can improve their health by 40 time with other dogs. Researchers said that different parts of a dog’s lifestyle and the environment in which it grows up can be used to know more about its health. The results showed that, 41 other parts of their lifestyles, socialising (社交) with other dogs is likely to improve a dog’s health most. Besides, socialising with humans also 42 the health of dogs. 43 , all dogs are different so it’s important for owners to understand their own pets’ preference. More studies are planned to learn how different parts of a dog’s lifestyle can contribute to its health. 【答案】39．answers 40．spending 41．compared to 42．makes a difference to 43．However 【导语】本文主要讲述了美国的一组研究人员对超过21000名狗主人进行了调查，并利用这些调查结果来了解狗的行为和健康状况。 39．句意：研究人员利用这些答案来了解狗，比如它们与成年人、孩子和其他狗相处的时间。根据“… to learn about the dogs”以及所给单词可知，此处说的是一些答案，answers意为“答案”，可数名词，“answers”是从超过21000名狗主人那里收集到的所有信息或数据，所以用复数。故填answers。 40．句意：他们发现狗可以通过与其他狗花费时间来改善它们的健康”。根据“dogs can improve their health by … time with other dogs”可知，此空需要填入一个动词或动词短语，表示狗改善健康的方式。根据所给单词或短语，只有“spending”符合语境，表示“花费时间”。故填spending。 41．句意：结果显示，对比它们生活方式的其他部分，与其他狗社交最有可能改善狗的健康。根据“ other parts of their lifestyles, socialising with other dogs is likely to improve a dog’s health most”可知，此处表示与其他部分相比，与其他狗社交对狗的健康改善最大。compare to表示“与……相比”，此处用过去分词表被动。故填compared to。 42．句意：此外，与人类社交也影响狗的健康。根据“socialising with humans also … the health of dogs”可知，此处表示与人类社交对狗健康的影响。“makes a difference to”表示“对……有影响”，主语为动名词短语“socialising with humans”，为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填makes a difference to。 43．句意：然而，所有的狗都是不同的，所以主人了解他们自己的宠物的喜好是很重要的。根据“all dogs are different so it’s important for owners to understand their own pets’ preference”可知，此处表示转折或补充。“however”符合语境，表示“然而”，用于引出与前文相反或不同的观点。故填However。 第五部分 短文填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，在有题号的横线上，填入适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Oracle bone script (甲骨文) is the oldest type of Chinese writing.

One day, the king saw the portraits (肖像) of his ancestors (祖先) on the walls. Thinking that one day his children would admire his portrait as well, he really wanted to have a portrait. So he invited a group of famous painters to the palace, offering a great deal of money to the artist who could create a beautiful portrait for him. All the painters began to wonder how to paint the king who was disabled. They soon thought that was an impossible task, fearing that if the portrait did not look good, they would get punished. So, one by one, they started making excuses and politely refused. Then, one painter said that he wanted to give it a try. The king agreed. The painter started drawing and coloring the portrait carefully in a quiet room. After some time, it was finally completed! All the other painters in the palace couldn’t wait to see what it would look like. When the painter presented the portrait, everyone, including the king, was amazed. The painter made a portrait in which the king was sitting on a horse, showing the one-leg side, holding his bow and aiming the arrow (瞄准箭) with his one eye closed. The king was very pleased to see this beautiful portrait, and gave the painter a lot of money as he promised. 54．What did the king invite these famous painters to the palace to do? 55．Why did the other painters refuse to paint for the king? 56．What do you think of the painter?

Why are the relationships between parents and children becoming so tense?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文：     Recently, news about the conflicts (冲突) between parents and children often appears in the media. Why are the relationships between parents and children becoming so tense? In my opinion, the main cause is a lack of communication. Parents seldom talk heart-to-heart with us. Sometimes they are too strict, which makes us stressed and unhappy. Besides, bad habits may influence children negatively, causing frequent arguments.    To solve these problems, we should communicate with parents actively every day. Sharing true feelings helps build a trusting relationship. Also, developing good habits is necessary for teenagers. If we understand each other better, conflicts will disappear gradually.     Let’s work together to create a harmonious and warm family. 【详解】写作步骤 ［第一步：审题立意］ 确定文体：介绍性说明文，用一般现在时为主 明确要点：父母与孩子发生冲突的原因（如缺少交流与沟通、过分严格、坏习惯影响孩子等）、解决办法（如加强交流与沟通、建立良好亲子关系、培养良好习惯等）。 确定人称：第一人称（we/us） 注意事项：文中不得出现真实人名、校名等信息。 ［第二步：构思布局］ 三段式结构： 开头段：表明父母与孩子发生冲突的原因 主体段：介绍解决办法 结尾段：呼吁，并升华主题 ［第三步：要点展开］ 要点一：父母与孩子发生冲突的原因 缺少交流与沟通：In my opinion/the main cause is lack of communication/seldom talk heart-to-heart with us/don’t understand each other 父母过分严格：too strict/makes us stressed and unhappy/treat us as adults 坏习惯影响孩子：Besides/bad habits may influence children negatively/causing arguments frequently/push too much 要点二：解决办法 加强交流与沟通：To solve these problems/should communicate with parents actively every day/enjoy family time together 建立良好亲子关系：Sharing true feelings helps build a trusting relationship/play some games 培养良好习惯：Also/developing good habits is necessary for teenagers/understand each other better/conflicts will disappear gradually/think twice before saying something bad 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 $ 2026年中考考前冲刺卷（苏州专用） 英语 注意事项： 1. 本试卷共七大题，满分100分（不含听力口语30分）、考试用时100分钟； 2. 答题前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考点名称、考场号、座位号用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔填写在答题卡和对应的位置上，并认真校对条形码上的准考号、姓名是否与本人相符合； 3. 答选择题必须用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动、请用橡皮擦干净后、再选涂其他答案；答非选择题必须用0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔写在答题卡指定的位置上，不在答题区域内的答案一律无效，不得用其他笔答题； 4. 考生答题必须答在答题卡上、答在试卷和草稿低上一律无效。 第I卷（客观题 共45分） 第一部分 完形填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 先通读下面的短文，掌握其大意，然后在每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并将选项填涂在答题卡相应的位置上。 There was a clock on the wall of our classroom. It wasn’t special — just a white face with black numbers. For three years, the clock has 1 caught my attention. It was simply there, like the desks or chairs. Almost 2 started to feel different when it came to Grade Nine. The lessons got harder, the days got longer and our stress became greater. And the clock? It seemed the only thing that remained the same and started to catch my eye slowly. During maths tests when my mind went blank, I’d raise my head and look at it. Its hands kept moving as usual — neither faster nor slower. It never 3 and it never stopped. It just did what it was supposed to do, day after day. One afternoon, I had to stay after school to finish some exercises. With the classroom 4 , the clock tick sounded loud. I stared at it, and for the first time it led me into deep thought. This clock had been hanging over here for years, watching thousands of students come and go. It watched us laugh, try, 5 , and try again. And through it all, it just kept telling time, 6 no one was watching and praising it. That was simply its job. I remembered what my mother told me, “The 7 thing isn’t doing something big. It’s doing the small thing, every single day, without anyone’s 8 .” Maybe that was it. 9 by the clock, I turned back to my desk and opened my textbook. I knew countless tasks and tough challenges still lay ahead. But somehow, I felt like I could 10 all difficulties and keep moving forward. The clock would not stop and neither would I. 1．A．sometimes B．hardly C．always D．usually 2．A．nothing B．something C．anything D．everything 3．A．rushed B．slept C．rang D．forgot 4．A．noisy B．clean C．empty D．bright 5．A．succeed B．fail C．argue D．fight 6．A．because B．so C．but D．though 7．A．smallest B．biggest C．hardest D．easiest 8．A．help B．experience C．doubt D．cheer 9．A．Touched B．Understood C．Disappointed D．Punished 10．A．look through B．get through C．take up D．give up 第二部分 阅读理解（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Here are four books to help you learn something new each day for a year. An Animal a Day: Read this book every day to meet a lot of different animals including penguins, lions and polar bears. You’ll learn about how to help endangered animals and how to protect their habitats (栖息地). A Word a Day: 365 Words for Curious Minds: If you’re interested in language, you’re sure to enjoy this book. It has a different word to discover each day, such as “rewild” on Earth Day. You’ll find out what each word means, how to pronounce it, and its history. Black History for Every Day of the Year: Written by award-winning historian, David Olusoga with the help of his family, this book is a treasure of black history. You can find out about key people and the meaningful cultural moments through the ages. Everything Under the Sun: All Around the World: This book answers 366 curious questions asked by children from all over the world. Find out how roller skates were first invented, how frogs jump, and where the happiest place in the world is. All kinds of people provide the answers. 11．What can you learn from An Animal a Day? A．Animal habits. B．Animal protection. C．Animal poems. D．Animal history. 12．If Maria is most interested in the book A Word a Day, what subject may be her favorite? A．History. B．Math. C．English. D．Physics. 13．What do the four books have in common? A．They are about animals. B．They introduce history. C．They teach new things daily. D．They answer kids’ questions. B Nowadays, AI is very common in our daily life. It is widely used in many areas, from chat apps to smart home devices, and even in our schoolwork. Unlike most common AI apps that only give answers, some new AI tools can help people do real tasks. One of them is OpenClaw, an open-source AI tool created by an Austrian engineer. It can clean up documents, send emails and make forms all by itself. Many people, from experts to beginners, can’t wait to try it. Lucas Wagner, a college student, is one of them. After OpenClaw was set up on his computer, he felt like entering a totally new world. “OpenClaw’s source code (源代码) is open to everyone. That means I can change it or add new uses freely, which makes me feel it is like a helper that never stops growing,” he said excitedly. “And it has a good memory. Over time, it knows what I like and does what I want. Therefore, my life has become much more convenient.” However, the rapid development of OpenClaw has also raised worries. Its ability to deal with problems independently is also exactly where its risks come from, because the tool requires high system permissions (权限). An Internet expert once warned, “The more permissions you give, the more careful you must be. Once it gets your photos and payment information, it may bring unexpected safety troubles.” OpenClaw makes AI from simple “talking” to real “doing”, which is a big step forward for AI tools. It offers us great convenience in life, yet it can never replace our real thinking and personal effort. If you choose to give it a try, always learn to control it before it controls you. 14．What is OpenClaw? A．An AI engineer. B．A popular chat app. C．A smart home device. D．An open-source AI tool. 15．Why did Lucas feel like entering a totally new world after using OpenClaw? A．He could learn how to create new apps. B．He moved to a completely new living place. C．He had a new and special experience of using AI. D．He got valuable skills to work as a computer expert. 16．What possible safety problem may OpenClaw bring us? A．It may cause the computer to go wrong. B．It may take the place of people’s own thinking. C．It may stop us from using other Internet tools. D．It may make users’ private payment information public. 17．What’s the purpose of the text? A．To remind people to use OpenClaw wisely. B．To advise people to make full use of AI tools. C．To show people how to use AI tools correctly. D．To tell people the importance of using AI tools. C The sixth planet was ten times larger than the last one. There the little prince met an old gentleman who was writing a big book. “What is that big book?” said the little prince. “What are you doing?” “I am a geographer,” the old gentleman said to him. “And I am writing about all the seas, mountains and deserts.” “That is interesting,” said the little prince. “So could you tell me something about your planet?” “I couldn’t tell you,” said the geographer. “But you are a geographer!” “Exactly,” the geographer said. “But I am not an explorer. We don’t have any explorers here. I don’t go out to count the seas, mountains and deserts. Instead, I receive explorers from other planets in my study. I ask them questions, and I write down their answers.” The geographer’s eyes suddenly shone with excitement. “But you… you come from far away! You are an explorer! You shall describe your planet to me!” “Oh, where I live,” said the little prince, “it is all so small. I have a flower on my planet.” “We do not record flowers,” said the geographer. “Why is that? The flower is the most beautiful thing on my planet” “We do not record them,” said the geographer, “because they are ephemeral.” “What does that mean… ‘ephemeral’?” “Geographies,” said the geographer, “are the books about eternal things. The thing that matters to us is the mountain. It doesn’t change. But your flower is different. It will not last long. It is ephemeral.” “My flower is ephemeral,” the little prince said to himself, “and I have left her on my planet, all alone!” But he took courage and asked, “What place would you advise me to visit now?” “The planet Earth,” replied the geographer. “I promise you will like it.” And the little prince went away, thinking of his flower. 18．What was the little prince doing? A．He was travelling around planets. B．He was getting ready for a book. C．He was sharing his experiences. D．He was searching for flowers. 19．What does the word “ephemeral” mean in the passage? A．Beautiful and strong. B．Lasting for a short time. C．Important and valuable. D．Lasting for a long time. 20．Which sentence should go in the in the last paragraph? A．“Then I must go back to my planet at once,” the little prince cried. B．“Flowers are not worth remembering,” the geographer added. C．The geographer felt sorry for the little prince. D．That was his first moment of regret. 21．From the passage, we can know ________. A．the old man travelled to many other planets B．the old man got information from explorers C．the little prince knew the sixth planet very well D．the little prince left his flower on the planet Earth D Have you ever thought that a hobby like bird-watching could change your brain? Scientists have found that experienced birdwatchers develop brain differences that help them recognize birds quickly. This shows that bird-watching can change the functioning of the brain, just like learning a language or playing an instrument does. When we learn or practice a new skill, our brain reorganizes itself, making certain pathways in our brain stronger and smoother. This ability is called neuroplasticity (神经可塑性). Some scientists have found that musicians have changes in the parts of the brain related to hearing, and athletes have changes in the parts related to body movement. To see if bird-watching also changes the brain, a team of scientists at York University in Canada studied 48 birdwatchers. Half were experts, and half were beginners. Both groups were shown a picture of a bird for less than 4 seconds, and about 10 seconds later, they had to find the same bird among four similar-looking birds. The task was repeated 72 times. As was expected, expert birders did much better. On average, they correctly recognized 83% of local birds and 61% of non-local birds. Beginners only got 44% correct for both kinds. Brain scans showed that, when recognizing birds, expert birders had more activity than beginners in brain areas related to object recognition, attention, and memory. This showed that continuous practice in bird-watching reshapes the brain. The researchers said that other hobbies using similar skills, like attention and memory, might bring similar benefits. “If you’re not into birds, try learning to play the guitar. It may cause similar brain changes,” said Erik Wing, the lead scientist of the study. 22．In what way does the writer explain neuroplasticity in paragraph 2? A．By listing numbers. B．By comparing two ideas. C．By giving examples. D．By telling a personal story. 23．How did the scientists at York University carry out the study? A．Scanned the brains of the birders and musicians. B．Tested the birders' hearing and body movement. C．Asked the birders to name 4 birds in 10 seconds. D．Compared the birders' ability to recognize birds. 24．Why did Erik Wing mention playing the guitar in the last paragraph? A．To encourage birdwatchers to play the guitar. B．To suggest another hobby that improves the brain. C．To let readers know guitar requires more attention. D．To introduce only musical instruments as a better choice. 25．Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A．Bird-watching Can Reshape Your Brain B．How Scientists Studied Birdwatchers C．Bird-watching Improves Mental Health D．The Secret to an Expert Birdwatcher 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 English learners shouldn’t think that mistakes are terrible. Alex Poole, one American language teacher, tells language learners that they should see mistakes as signs of progress. One common problem is that English learners think too much about mistakes. Alex said, “ 26 ” 27 The first is to look for misunderstanding. For example, perhaps a person gives an unusual reply to something you said. You can ask him or her directly what the problem is. The second one is that if you know a native (本土的) speaker well, you can ask him or her about the kinds of things that could cause communication problems. When it comes to writing, English learners should think about mistakes in a different way. 28 When English learners write something, Alex advises that they think about the main ideas first. 29 After writing something, they can use their lists to look for mistakes. According to Alex, you can create your own “philosophy(哲学体系) of mistakes”. 30 He says, “As a language learner, I try to correct and learn from my mistakes. I look for things which cause communication problems, and I just have to live with that.” A．Alex explains his philosophy of mistakes to us. B．When I’m making mistakes, I feel I’m not trying hard. C．Alex asks them to keep a list of common mistakes in writing. D．Then, they should think about how to put those ideas in order. E．When speaking with a native English speaker, it’s easy to make two kinds of mistakes. F．If you have a mistake, the only thing you must worry about is whether it causes communication problems. G．When you’re speaking with a native English speaker, there are two kinds of things you can do to look for mistakes. 第II卷(主观题共55分) 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31．We should be ________ (礼貌) to others and respect different opinions. 32．The secret garden is ________ (藏) behind the old wall, filled with colorful flowers and happy memories. 33．The door ________ (隔开) the warm living room from the cold snowy yard outside. 34．The doctor advised him to take the medicine three t________ a day. 35．I have two extra tickets.
