Their responses offer valuable insight into the conditions and experiences that develop genuine engagement with writing (see Figure 1). The findings indicate that cultivating (培养) environments that prioritise freedom of choice, personal and social relevance, and meaningful engagement may be instrumental in enhancing young people’s motivation to write in school. Figure 1: Key factors that would stimulate a desire to write in school. Figure 2: A word cloud of students topic preferences for writing. When asked what they would most like to write about in school if they could choose, young writers suggested a wide range of topics. A word cloud visualizes their preferences, where the size of each word corresponds to its frequency in the responses (see Figure 2). Our interviews with students also reveal that they are most motivated when writing allows them to explore both the world around them and the worlds they imagine. Overall, our research highlights that writing in school is most meaningful when it is rooted in connection to self, to others and to the world, and experienced in its power to engage, bring power, inspire thought and shape identity. As a result, it is suggested that school-based writing should not be only about producing perfect texts but about cultivating young writers who are invested, confident, curious and socially connected. 21. What is most likely to motivate students to write? A. Rewards. B. Autonomy. C. Interest. D. Experiences. 22. Which of the following would students probably prefer to write about? A. A famous song. B. A fashion trend. C. A past civilization. D. A personal interview. 23. Who is the passage most probably intended for? A. Policy makers. B. Young writers . C. Lab researchers. D. School educators. B A South Florida scientist is challenging traditional views of what a scientist should look like and gaining wide online attention. Jordon King, a microbiologist and science communicator, has drawn growing interest in his research in Everglades National Park, where he studies one of the ecosystem’s most vital yet least understood components: floc. Floc, a loose, organic material found in wetland soils, can reveal environmental changes over time, particularly those caused by human activities like freshwater restoration. Floc may not sound exciting, but it is critical to the ecosystem. Unlike compact soil, floc helps form soil deposits, which supports steady plant growth. Plants, in turn, provide food for animals, and if floc disappears, this delicate balance breaks down, risking the entire ecosystem’s collapse. Over the past year, King has collected more than 200 soil samples for his research. His dedication earned him a master’s degree from Florida International University — though the journey was far from easy. He reached out to about 40 professors before getting a positive response to move his work forward. King later began sharing his work on social media, posting videos from the Everglades and breaking down complex science in an engaging, accessible way. What started as a casual idea quickly caught on, with viewers drawn to both his passion and his genuineness. “People often comment, ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover,’” King said. “That’s exactly what I’m experiencing. What makes me stand out is being myself, not following the traditional image of a scientist.” King loves what he does, and he told NBC6 that he hoped to keep focusing on his research, while using social media to share his work, make a living, and inspire more people to get involved in science. 24. What can we learn about floc according to the passage? A. It directly increases local animal populations. B. It shows how to control plant growth in wetland soil. C. It reveals environmental changes caused by humans. D. It proves compact soil harms the ecosystem’s balance. 25. What contributed to King’s advancing his work? A. Obtaining professional support to carry on. B. Finding the right species for research. C. Collecting enough funds for study. D. Explaining complex science on social media. 26. What makes King stand out online? A. His breakthrough in freshwater restoration research. B. His style challenging the typical image of a scientist. C. The complexity of his floc research in the Everglades. D. His decision to share complicated science on social media. 27. Which of the following best describe King? A. Energetic and cautious. B. Decisive and sympathetic. C. Humorous and conventional. D. Innovative and passionate. C For centuries, the soil was considered a silent world. This perception, however, is now being overturned by scientists who are discovering that the ground beneath our feet is, in fact, full of life. The revelation began with an experiment by Marcus Maeder, a sound artist and researcher. When he first pushed a specialized microphone into a mountain grassy field, his headphones erupted with a loud mix of strange sounds — thrumming, chirring, and scraping. This accidental discovery opened the door to the study of living sounds in soil, which uses sensors pushed into the soil to pick up the tiny movements made by underground life. This hidden world is home to immense biodiversity. Ecologist Carolyn-Monika Görres’s research on root-eating beetle larvae (甲虫幼虫), provides a fascinating example. She discovered that the larvae produce distinct, species-specific sounds together, a process called stridulation (摩擦发声). In her lab, she observed that larvae in groups stridulated frequently — over 600 times in a few hours. This unique sound helps scientists identify and monitor these pests, which can cause significant damage to crops. The practical applications are significant. In agriculture, this technology could allow farmers to find the exact location of pest problems, enabling targeted pesticide (农药) use instead of blanket applications, thus protecting soil health. However, this research has also revealed an important but worrying truth. The same sensitive equipment picks up the noise of human activity — distant traffic, construction, and airplanes — deep within the soil. The impact of this noise pollution on underground life is still unknown, but it is unlikely to be positive. More alarmingly, in intensively farmed soils, the natural mix of sounds often falls silent, indicating a loss of biodiversity and degraded land health. Listening to the soil does more than satisfy scientific curiosity. It reveals the complex, vital ecosystem that sustains us and serves as a strong warning that our actions can quiet its essential chorus, urging us to become better caretakers of the land. 28. What does the underlined word “overturned” in the first paragraph mean? A. Ignored. B. Confirmed. C. Explained. D. Challenged. 29. What can we learn about Marcus Maeder’s experiment? A. It aimed to record life in soil. B. It led to an unexpected finding. C. It pioneered the use of sensors. D. It proved previous assumptions. 30. How can the technology benefit soil health? A. By replacing chemical use. B. By preventing pest problems. C. By applying chemicals precisely. D. By strengthening pesticide effect. 31. What does the author intend to convey in the last paragraph? A. Curiosity fuels scientific progress. B. Human actions may silence the soil. C. More research on soil life is needed. D. The soil ecosystem is highly complex. D Do you have a colleague who complains about their personal problems every single day? Or a relative who criticizes your lifestyle but still asks for your help? A new study indicates that coping with people who are difficult to get along with may speed up the aging process. Published in a leading science journal, the research confirms a link between stressful social relationships and accelerated biological aging. The study involved over 2,300 adults who provided saliva samples for DNA testing. They also answered questions about their social circles, identifying people who frequently cause them stress or make their lives difficult. The findings are clear: the more “annoying people” one has to deal with, the faster their body seems to age. On average, each stressful relationship was linked to a 1.5% increase in the speed of biological aging. While this might sound small, it can add up over time. The reason behind this is likely chronic stress. Constantly interacting with difficult people keeps the body’s stress system active. This leads to higher levels of stress hormones, which can cause inflammation and weaken the immune system, ultimately damaging cells and speeding up the aging process. The study also found that not all annoying people have the same effect. Stressful relationships with family members, who are harder to avoid, were more strongly linked to faster aging than those with friends or coworkers. Interestingly, however, having an annoying husband or wife did not show a significant connection to accelerated aging. Researchers suggest that the positive aspects of a marriage might balance out the negative ones. Furthermore, the study noted that women, people with existing health problems, and those who had difficult childhoods were more likely to report having such stressful relationships. This research highlights that our social environment is a powerful factor in our physical health. While we cannot avoid all difficult people, being aware of their impact is the first step. Managing these relationships and seeking support from positive friends and family might be a simple yet effective way to stay healthier and younger for longer. 32. How do difficult people speed up our aging according to the text? A. By causing ongoing stress. B. By lowering our sleep quality. C. By breaking our social circles. D. By changing our DNA structure. 33. Which stressful relationship showed little effect on aging according to the text? A. Critical relatives. B. Demanding coworkers. C. Annoying family members. D. Troublesome husband or wife. 34. What is the author’s most likely suggestion? A. Staying away from all annoying people. B. Building a positive support network actively. C. Accepting the fact of biological aging calmly. D. Putting an end to ties with difficult family members. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Marriage helps you stay young B. Chronic stress harms your health C. How to deal with difficult people D. Annoying people make you age faster 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。 Discipline and the Road to Maturity Most do not see that life is difficult. ____36____ But once we truly see this truth, we go beyond it — then life is no longer difficult. Discipline is what we need. Delaying of satisfaction is the first tool of discipline. It requires us to give up immediate pleasure for greater satisfaction in the long run. ____37____ Yet many adults never fully learn this simple lesson. They refuse to face life’s necessary hardships to achieve goals and live fulfilling lives. The second tool is acceptance of responsibility. This means that we are responsible for our own lives, instead of blaming others and making excuses. ____38____ Some feel responsible for everything that goes wrong in the world. In fact, they are avoiding the pain of helplessness. Others refuse to take responsibility for anything, in an attempt to avoid feeling guilty and ashamed. ____39____ This calls on us to see the world as it is. We should not view it as we wish or fear it to be. We must accept the truth even when painful or inconvenient, and change our beliefs and behaviors that contradict it. Our view of reality is like a map that guides us through life’s journey. If it is false and inaccurate, we will be lost. The fourth tool of discipline is balancing. We need to view things from multiple perspectives. ____40____ Balancing requires us to be flexible and adaptable. We should compromise when needed, forgive, let go of what no longer helps, and embrace change. In short, balancing requires us to be mature. And maturity is the goal of all spiritual growth. A. Everyone is convinced of the truth. B. Children also desire instant enjoyment. C. Then comes the tool of dedication to truth. D. Instead they often complain about their burdens. E. Yet many people fall into two opposite extremes. F. Only then can we make decisions in our best interests overall. G. A little boy learns it by eating his vegetables first to earn a cookie. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 We see different natural phenomena around us every day, but few of us really understand why they ___41___.

Every summer vacation, she worked as a student volunteer, feeling responsible for protecting this quiet space. Lately, a boy named Liam had become her challenge. Liam wasn’t rude — he just couldn’t sit still. Like clockwork, he would get up to “stretch his legs, ”pacing between the bookshelves. Sometimes he’d accidentally knock over a chair. Once, absorbed in a picture book, he let out a loud“Whoa!”when he saw a giant dinosaur filled the page. In the silence, each sound drew looks from other readers. Yesterday, when Megan walked over and reminded him gently again, Liam’s face turned red. “I’m really sorry, ”he whispered sincerely. “I don’t mean to. I just. I really like being here. ”She believed him. She had noticed that Liam was a curious explorer of books. He would pull out a book on dinosaurs, reading with intense focus for a few minutes, then move on to another about volcanoes or space rockets. He just loved the library. Megan went back to her office. A note on the head librarian’s desk caught her eye. It read, “More Lively Reading Activities? Book sharing? Acting?” Seeing this, Megan suddenly remembered the librarian had mentioned she could feel free to use the garden at the back of the library. It was a place where some unused items were stored — some old chairs, folding tables, all piled up gathering dust under a large tree. At the time, Megan hadn’t thought much about it. But now, the thoughts of directing Liam’s energy and making use of the garden connected in her mind. Perhaps the solution wasn’t to quiet Liam down, but to give his energy and love for books a positive stage, right here in their own library. An idea for a “Garden Reading Corner”project, aimed at young readers, began to take shape. The next morning, she found Liam among the bookshelves. “Want to do something really cool?”she said, her voice low but excited. Liam did not answer at once, but the eager light in his eyes said everything. 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。 For the next week, Megan and Liam busied themselves with the project. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the opening day of the project, they waited nervously in the garden. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河南省信阳高级中学北湖校区 2026届普通高等学校招生全国统一考试模拟预测 英语试题 考生注意： 1.答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2．答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 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。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

His famous customers didn’t know John’s secret but they notice he rarely answered the phone. That’s because if he did, he might need to check the appointment book or write something down. And that was a problem because John was unable to read. John grew up in a poor area. At school, he was in the worst class. He tried to hide his reading problem as well as he could. At 16, he took a job at a hair shop. He went to school in the evenings to learn how to cut hair and he won prizes for his skill later. Then he was offered a job at a high class shop and there he met his wife Heather. She became one of the few people who knew John’s secret. She helped him when reading was required. Aged 25, John successfully open the shop where he would stay for 35 years, but he still has the reading problem. At restaurants, he couldn’t read the menu 8 years ago. John’s wife died after 50 years of marriage. Without her help, John decided to try again to learn. He joined a group that uses volunteers to teach adults. John now reads newspapers like Daily Mirror and Daily Mail, because the Times is too difficult. John says there’s a shortage of volunteers to teach reading. How does he know? He read it in a newspaper. 第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A To better understand how to support children and young people’s motivation to write in school, we asked them what would make them want to write. Their responses offer valuable insight into the conditions and experiences that develop genuine engagement with writing (see Figure 1). The findings indicate that cultivating (培养) environments that prioritise freedom of choice, personal and social relevance, and meaningful engagement may be instrumental in enhancing young people’s motivation to write in school. Figure 1: Key factors that would stimulate a desire to write in school. Figure 2: A word cloud of students topic preferences for writing. When asked what they would most like to write about in school if they could choose, young writers suggested a wide range of topics. A word cloud visualizes their preferences, where the size of each word corresponds to its frequency in the responses (see Figure 2). Our interviews with students also reveal that they are most motivated when writing allows them to explore both the world around them and the worlds they imagine. Overall, our research highlights that writing in school is most meaningful when it is rooted in connection to self, to others and to the world, and experienced in its power to engage, bring power, inspire thought and shape identity. As a result, it is suggested that school-based writing should not be only about producing perfect texts but about cultivating young writers who are invested, confident, curious and socially connected. 21. What is most likely to motivate students to write? A. Rewards. B. Autonomy. C. Interest. D. Experiences. 22. Which of the following would students probably prefer to write about? A. A famous song. B. A fashion trend. C. A past civilization. D. A personal interview. 23. Who is the passage most probably intended for? A. Policy makers. B. Young writers . C. Lab researchers. D. School educators. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕如何提升学生在学校写作的动机展开，通过调查学生的想法、写作话题偏好等，强调学校写作应注重培养学生成为有投入感、自信、好奇且善于社交的写作者。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据图一中的“Being free to choose what I want to write about 35.7% (能够自由选择自己想写的内容35.7%)”可知，激发学生在学校写作欲望的关键因素中选择自由占比最大，所以重视选择自由即自主性（Autonomy）最有可能激发学生的写作动机。故选B项。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“When asked what they would most like to write about in school if they could choose, young writers suggested a wide range of topics. A word cloud visualizes their preferences, where the size of each word corresponds to its frequency in the responses (see Figure 2). (当被问及如果可以选择的话，他们最想在学校里写些什么时，年轻的学生们提出了众多不同的主题。一个词云图能够直观地展示他们的偏好，其中每个单词的大小与其在回复中的出现频率成正比（见图 2）)”可知，图中的history单词最大，所以学生可能更喜欢写历史这个话题，也就是“一个过去的文明”。故选C项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As a result, it is suggested that school-based writing should not be only about producing perfect texts but about cultivating young writers who are invested, confident, curious and socially connected. (因此，建议学校写作不应仅仅关注产出完美的文本，而应注重培养有投入感、自信、好奇且善于社交的年轻写作者)”可推知，文章是针对学校写作给出建议，其目标受众应该是学校教育工作者。故选D项。 B A South Florida scientist is challenging traditional views of what a scientist should look like and gaining wide online attention. Jordon King, a microbiologist and science communicator, has drawn growing interest in his research in Everglades National Park, where he studies one of the ecosystem’s most vital yet least understood components: floc. Floc, a loose, organic material found in wetland soils, can reveal environmental changes over time, particularly those caused by human activities like freshwater restoration. Floc may not sound exciting, but it is critical to the ecosystem. Unlike compact soil, floc helps form soil deposits, which supports steady plant growth. Plants, in turn, provide food for animals, and if floc disappears, this delicate balance breaks down, risking the entire ecosystem’s collapse. Over the past year, King has collected more than 200 soil samples for his research. His dedication earned him a master’s degree from Florida International University — though the journey was far from easy. He reached out to about 40 professors before getting a positive response to move his work forward. King later began sharing his work on social media, posting videos from the Everglades and breaking down complex science in an engaging, accessible way. What started as a casual idea quickly caught on, with viewers drawn to both his passion and his genuineness. “People often comment, ‘Don’t judge a book by its cover,’” King said. “That’s exactly what I’m experiencing. What makes me stand out is being myself, not following the traditional image of a scientist.” King loves what he does, and he told NBC6 that he hoped to keep focusing on his research, while using social media to share his work, make a living, and inspire more people to get involved in science. 24. What can we learn about floc according to the passage? A. It directly increases local animal populations. B. It shows how to control plant growth in wetland soil. C. It reveals environmental changes caused by humans. D. It proves compact soil harms the ecosystem’s balance. 25. What contributed to King’s advancing his work? A. Obtaining professional support to carry on. B. Finding the right species for research. C. Collecting enough funds for study. D. Explaining complex science on social media. 26. What makes King stand out online? A. His breakthrough in freshwater restoration research. B. His style challenging the typical image of a scientist. C. The complexity of his floc research in the Everglades. D. His decision to share complicated science on social media. 27. Which of the following best describe King? A. Energetic and cautious. B. Decisive and sympathetic. C. Humorous and conventional. D. Innovative and passionate. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了南佛罗里达科学家Jordon King挑战传统科学家形象，研究湿地重要但鲜为人知的成分——絮凝物（floc），并通过社交媒体分享其工作，获得广泛关注。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Floc, a loose, organic material found in wetland soils, can reveal environmental changes over time, particularly those caused by human activities like freshwater restoration. (絮凝物是湿地土壤中发现的一种松散的有机物质，它可以揭示随时间变化的环境变化，特别是那些由人类活动（如淡水恢复）引起的环境变化)”可知，絮凝物可以揭示由人类活动引起的环境变化。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“He reached out to about 40 professors before getting a positive response to move his work forward. (在得到积极回应以推进他的工作之前，他联系了大约40位教授)”可知，King联系了大约40位教授，最终获得了专业支持，得以继续推进他的研究工作。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“What makes me stand out is being myself, not following the traditional image of a scientist. (让我脱颖而出的是做我自己，而不是遵循科学家的传统形象)”可知，King在网上脱颖而出是因为他挑战了传统科学家的形象，做真实的自己。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A South Florida scientist is challenging traditional views of what a scientist should look like and gaining wide online attention. (南佛罗里达州的一位科学家正在挑战人们对科学家应该是什么样子的传统看法，并在网上获得了广泛关注)”以及倒数第二段“What makes me stand out is being myself, not following the traditional image of a scientist. (让我脱颖而出的是做我自己，而不是遵循科学家的传统形象)”和最后一段“King loves what he does, and he told NBC6 that he hoped to keep focusing on his research, while using social media to share his work, make a living, and inspire more people to get involved in science. (King热爱他所做的事情，他告诉NBC6，他希望继续专注于他的研究，同时利用社交媒体分享他的工作，谋生，并激励更多人参与科学)”可知，King挑战传统科学家形象，通过社交媒体分享复杂科学，且热爱自己的工作，说明他具有创新性和热情。 C For centuries, the soil was considered a silent world. This perception, however, is now being overturned by scientists who are discovering that the ground beneath our feet is, in fact, full of life. The revelation began with an experiment by Marcus Maeder, a sound artist and researcher. When he first pushed a specialized microphone into a mountain grassy field, his headphones erupted with a loud mix of strange sounds — thrumming, chirring, and scraping. This accidental discovery opened the door to the study of living sounds in soil, which uses sensors pushed into the soil to pick up the tiny movements made by underground life. This hidden world is home to immense biodiversity. Ecologist Carolyn-Monika Görres’s research on root-eating beetle larvae (甲虫幼虫), provides a fascinating example. She discovered that the larvae produce distinct, species-specific sounds together, a process called stridulation (摩擦发声). In her lab, she observed that larvae in groups stridulated frequently — over 600 times in a few hours. This unique sound helps scientists identify and monitor these pests, which can cause significant damage to crops. The practical applications are significant. In agriculture, this technology could allow farmers to find the exact location of pest problems, enabling targeted pesticide (农药) use instead of blanket applications, thus protecting soil health. However, this research has also revealed an important but worrying truth. The same sensitive equipment picks up the noise of human activity — distant traffic, construction, and airplanes — deep within the soil. The impact of this noise pollution on underground life is still unknown, but it is unlikely to be positive. More alarmingly, in intensively farmed soils, the natural mix of sounds often falls silent, indicating a loss of biodiversity and degraded land health. Listening to the soil does more than satisfy scientific curiosity. It reveals the complex, vital ecosystem that sustains us and serves as a strong warning that our actions can quiet its essential chorus, urging us to become better caretakers of the land. 28. What does the underlined word “overturned” in the first paragraph mean? A. Ignored. B. Confirmed. C. Explained. D. Challenged. 29. What can we learn about Marcus Maeder’s experiment? A. It aimed to record life in soil. B. It led to an unexpected finding. C. It pioneered the use of sensors. D. It proved previous assumptions. 30. How can the technology benefit soil health? A. By replacing chemical use. B. By preventing pest problems. C. By applying chemicals precisely. D. By strengthening pesticide effect. 31. What does the author intend to convey in the last paragraph? A. Curiosity fuels scientific progress. B. Human actions may silence the soil. C. More research on soil life is needed. D. The soil ecosystem is highly complex. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过相关实验发现土壤中充满各类生命声响，介绍甲虫幼虫摩擦发声的现象与研究价值，阐述该技术在农业精准施药、保护土壤健康上的实际用途，同时指出人类活动噪音与集约化农耕正在破坏土壤生物多样性，呼吁人们守护土地生态系统。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“For centuries, the soil was considered a silent world. This perception, however, is now being overturned by scientists who are discovering that the ground beneath our feet is, in fact, full of life.(几个世纪以来，土壤一直被视作一个寂静的世界。然而如今科学家发现我们脚下的土地其实充满生机，这一观念正被overturned。)”可知，人们原有认知认为土壤沉寂无声，新发现对此观点提出质疑与颠覆，challenged意为“质疑、挑战”。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When he first pushed a specialized microphone into a mountain grassy field, his headphones erupted with a loud mix of strange sounds — thrumming, chirring, and scraping. This accidental discovery opened the door to the study of living sounds in soil.(当他第一次将专用麦克风插入山间草地时，耳机里突然传出混杂的怪异声响——嗡嗡声、唧唧声和刮擦声。这一意外发现为土壤生命声响的研究开启了大门。)”可知，此次实验并非刻意预设，而是收获了意外发现。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In agriculture, this technology could allow farmers to find the exact location of pest problems, enabling targeted pesticide use instead of blanket applications, thus protecting soil health.(在农业领域，这项技术能让农民精准定位虫害位置，实现农药精准施用而非全面喷洒，进而保护土壤健康。)”可知，该技术通过精准定位虫害、精准施用农药维护土壤健康。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It reveals the complex, vital ecosystem that sustains us and serves as a strong warning that our actions can quiet its essential chorus, urging us to become better caretakers of the land.(它揭示了维系我们生存的复杂而重要的生态系统，并发出强烈警示：人类的行为可能会让这一生命的共鸣沉寂，督促我们更好地守护这片土地。)”可知，作者意在传递人类活动可能会破坏土壤生态、让土壤生命声响消失的观点。 D Do you have a colleague who complains about their personal problems every single day? Or a relative who criticizes your lifestyle but still asks for your help? A new study indicates that coping with people who are difficult to get along with may speed up the aging process. Published in a leading science journal, the research confirms a link between stressful social relationships and accelerated biological aging. The study involved over 2,300 adults who provided saliva samples for DNA testing. They also answered questions about their social circles, identifying people who frequently cause them stress or make their lives difficult. The findings are clear: the more “annoying people” one has to deal with, the faster their body seems to age. On average, each stressful relationship was linked to a 1.5% increase in the speed of biological aging. While this might sound small, it can add up over time. The reason behind this is likely chronic stress. Constantly interacting with difficult people keeps the body’s stress system active. This leads to higher levels of stress hormones, which can cause inflammation and weaken the immune system, ultimately damaging cells and speeding up the aging process. The study also found that not all annoying people have the same effect. Stressful relationships with family members, who are harder to avoid, were more strongly linked to faster aging than those with friends or coworkers. Interestingly, however, having an annoying husband or wife did not show a significant connection to accelerated aging. Researchers suggest that the positive aspects of a marriage might balance out the negative ones. Furthermore, the study noted that women, people with existing health problems, and those who had difficult childhoods were more likely to report having such stressful relationships. This research highlights that our social environment is a powerful factor in our physical health. While we cannot avoid all difficult people, being aware of their impact is the first step. Managing these relationships and seeking support from positive friends and family might be a simple yet effective way to stay healthier and younger for longer. 32. How do difficult people speed up our aging according to the text? A. By causing ongoing stress. B. By lowering our sleep quality. C. By breaking our social circles. D. By changing our DNA structure. 33. Which stressful relationship showed little effect on aging according to the text? A. Critical relatives. B. Demanding coworkers. C. Annoying family members. D. Troublesome husband or wife. 34. What is the author’s most likely suggestion? A. Staying away from all annoying people. B. Building a positive support network actively. C. Accepting the fact of biological aging calmly. D. Putting an end to ties with difficult family members. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Marriage helps you stay young B. Chronic stress harms your health C. How to deal with difficult people D. Annoying people make you age faster 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了研究发现烦人的关系会加速衰老。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The reason behind this is likely chronic stress. Constantly interacting with difficult people keeps the body’s stress system active. This leads to higher levels of stress hormones, which can cause inflammation and weaken the immune system, ultimately damaging cells and speeding up the aging process.(其背后的原因很可能是慢性压力。不断与难相处的人互动会使身体的压力系统持续处于活跃状态。这会导致压力激素水平升高，进而引发炎症、削弱免疫系统，最终损害细胞并加速衰老过程。)”可知，与难相处的人互动会导致衰老是因为慢性压力，它们让身体的压力始终处于活跃状态，即带来不断的压力。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第五段“Interestingly, however, having an annoying husband or wife did not show a significant connection to accelerated aging.(然而有趣的是，有一个令人烦恼的丈夫或妻子并未显示出与加速衰老有显著关联。)”可知，一个令人烦恼的丈夫和妻子并未显示出与加速衰老有显著关联，即一个麻烦的丈夫或妻子对加速衰老的影响不大。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Managing these relationships and seeking support from positive friends and family might be a simple yet effective way to stay healthier and younger for longer.(管理这些关系，并从积极的朋友和家人那里寻求支持，可能是一种简单而有效的保持更健康、更年轻的方法。)”可知，作者建议“管理这些关系”并“从积极的朋友和家人那里寻求支持”，即主动建立积极的社交支持网络。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“The findings are clear: the more “annoying people” one has to deal with, the faster their body seems to age.(研究结果很明确：一个人需要应对的“烦人的人”越多，他的身体似乎衰老得就越快。)”可知，这句话直接概括了全文核心发现：烦人的人越多，身体衰老得越快。全文围绕这一主题展开，介绍了其原因、不同关系的影响差异以及建议。故D项“烦人的人让你老得更快”符合文章标题，能概括全文内容。 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。 Discipline and the Road to Maturity Most do not see that life is difficult. ____36____ But once we truly see this truth, we go beyond it — then life is no longer difficult. Discipline is what we need. Delaying of satisfaction is the first tool of discipline. It requires us to give up immediate pleasure for greater satisfaction in the long run. ____37____ Yet many adults never fully learn this simple lesson. They refuse to face life’s necessary hardships to achieve goals and live fulfilling lives. The second tool is acceptance of responsibility. This means that we are responsible for our own lives, instead of blaming others and making excuses. ____38____ Some feel responsible for everything that goes wrong in the world. In fact, they are avoiding the pain of helplessness. Others refuse to take responsibility for anything, in an attempt to avoid feeling guilty and ashamed. ____39____ This calls on us to see the world as it is. We should not view it as we wish or fear it to be. We must accept the truth even when painful or inconvenient, and change our beliefs and behaviors that contradict it. Our view of reality is like a map that guides us through life’s journey. If it is false and inaccurate, we will be lost. The fourth tool of discipline is balancing. We need to view things from multiple perspectives. ____40____ Balancing requires us to be flexible and adaptable. We should compromise when needed, forgive, let go of what no longer helps, and embrace change. In short, balancing requires us to be mature. And maturity is the goal of all spiritual growth. A. Everyone is convinced of the truth. B. Children also desire instant enjoyment. C. Then comes the tool of dedication to truth. D. Instead they often complain about their burdens. E. Yet many people fall into two opposite extremes. F. Only then can we make decisions in our best interests overall. G. A little boy learns it by eating his vegetables first to earn a cookie. 【答案】36.

Every summer vacation, she worked as a student volunteer, feeling responsible for protecting this quiet space. Lately, a boy named Liam had become her challenge. Liam wasn’t rude — he just couldn’t sit still. Like clockwork, he would get up to “stretch his legs, ”pacing between the bookshelves. Sometimes he’d accidentally knock over a chair. Once, absorbed in a picture book, he let out a loud“Whoa!”when he saw a giant dinosaur filled the page. In the silence, each sound drew looks from other readers. Yesterday, when Megan walked over and reminded him gently again, Liam’s face turned red. “I’m really sorry, ”he whispered sincerely. “I don’t mean to. I just. I really like being here. ”She believed him. She had noticed that Liam was a curious explorer of books. He would pull out a book on dinosaurs, reading with intense focus for a few minutes, then move on to another about volcanoes or space rockets. He just loved the library. Megan went back to her office. A note on the head librarian’s desk caught her eye. It read, “More Lively Reading Activities? Book sharing? Acting?” Seeing this, Megan suddenly remembered the librarian had mentioned she could feel free to use the garden at the back of the library. It was a place where some unused items were stored — some old chairs, folding tables, all piled up gathering dust under a large tree. At the time, Megan hadn’t thought much about it. But now, the thoughts of directing Liam’s energy and making use of the garden connected in her mind. Perhaps the solution wasn’t to quiet Liam down, but to give his energy and love for books a positive stage, right here in their own library. An idea for a “Garden Reading Corner”project, aimed at young readers, began to take shape. The next morning, she found Liam among the bookshelves. “Want to do something really cool?”she said, her voice low but excited. Liam did not answer at once, but the eager light in his eyes said everything. 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。 For the next week, Megan and Liam busied themselves with the project. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ On the opening day of the project, they waited nervously in the garden. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 For the next week, Megan and Liam busied themselves with the project. They first cleaned the messy garden, moving old chairs and folding tables to a sunny spot under the big tree. Liam scrubbed the dirt off the furniture and arranged them in a circle for kids. Megan brought colorful posters of dinosaurs and space — Liam’s favorite — and they hung them on the tree. They also picked out a lot of picture books and storybooks for young readers and placed them on a wooden shelf from the storage. Every evening, they discussed fun activities like book sharing and role-playing, with Liam coming up with many creative ideas. On the opening day of the project, they waited nervously in the garden. Soon many kids came, attracted by the colorful posters and interesting books. Liam became a great guide: he read dinosaur stories aloud and acted out some parts with vivid gestures, making everyone laugh happily. The garden was filled with soft laughter and reading voices, never disturbing the quiet inside the library. The head librarian came and praised them warmly, saying the garden reading corner was a wonderful addition. Megan smiled, knowing she had found the best way to let Liam’s energy shine and keep the library quiet. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。社区图书馆是梅根的宁静王国，男孩利亚姆好动常发出声响。梅根看到馆长关于阅读活动的便条后，想到利用图书馆后花园，计划打造“花园阅读角”项目来引导利亚姆。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“接下来的一周，梅根和利亚姆忙着筹备这个项目。”可知，第一段可以描写梅根和利亚姆接下来一周忙着筹备阅读角项目，两人分工合作整理花园、布置家具、张贴海报、摆放书籍，还一起讨论设计趣味活动，利亚姆提出了许多创意想法。 ②由第二段句首内容“项目开放当天，他们在花园里紧张地等待着。”可知，第二段可以描写项目开放当天孩子们被吸引前来，利亚姆生动地讲故事带动气氛，花园里充满欢声笑语又不打扰图书馆，图书管理员对他们大加赞扬，梅根也找到了既能发挥利亚姆活力又能保持图书馆安静的好办法。 2.续写线索：两人着手筹备阅读角项目——分工整理花园并布置装饰——摆放书籍并策划趣味活动——开放日紧张等待孩子到来——利亚姆热情带动孩子们阅读——获得管理员称赞并实现初衷 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①打扫：clean/tidy up ②移动：move/shift ③擦去污垢：scrub the dirt off/wipe the dirt away 情绪类 ①开心地：happily/delightedly ②温暖赞扬他们：praise them warmly/give them warm praise 【点睛】【高分句型1】They first cleaned the messy garden, moving old chairs and folding tables to a sunny spot under the big tree.
