Habitat 67(Montreal, Canada) Habitat 67's unique architecture was designed by a young Canadian-Israeli immigrant named Moshe Safdie for Montreal's 1967 Universal Exposition (博览会). The building was designed to integrate the advantages of suburban living — namely privacy, gardens and multiple floors — in an urban environment. Sagrada Familia(Barcelona, Spain) When modernist architect Antoni Gaudi took the reins in 1883, a year after the construction began, he turned just another church into his masterpiece. Its complex designs and themes make the Sagrada Familia among the most unique architecture in the world. When it's finally finished in 2026, its iconic design will have long since been established as one of the great achievements of architecture. Longaberger Basket Building(Newark, America) There are plenty of buildings out there that reflect their purpose, like the Kansas City library that looks like a row of books. The Longaberger Basket Building is one of this kind. Head office of the Longaberger Company produces baskets which can be found around the world. The Longaberger founder's son wanted all the other Longaberger buildings to look like its products too. Atomium(Brussels, Belgium) Another example of an offbeat construction for a World's Fair, the Atomium was built for the 1958 edition of the Universal Exposition held in Brussels, Belgium by André Waterkeyn. Unlike Habitat 67, it wasn't meant to be a residential building. Instead it contains exhibition rooms and public halls. The building itself is designed to be a copy of the structure of iron crystal. 1. Which of the following building hasn't been completed by now? A. Habitat 67. B. Sagrada Familia. C. Longaberger Basket Building. D. Atomium. 2. What does Longaberger Basket Building look like? A. A basket. B. A garden. C. A row of books. D. An iron crystal. 3. What do Habitat 67 and Atomium have in common? A. They are residential buildings. B. They were built for World's Fairs. C. They were designed by Moshe Safdie. D. They contain exhibition rooms and public halls. B Back in 2003, Erica Hernandez was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach. They overheard a plan to build a processing station for natural gas 14 miles off the coast of Oxnard. The plan would send over 200 tons of air pollution per year to Erica’s community. Not only that, the station would take in millions of gallons of seawater per day to cool its generators, and discharge the water more than 15 degrees centigrade hotter than the surrounding ocean. This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem, killing tiny creatures and small fish crucial to the survival of marine mammals and fisheries. Erica cared too much to stay silent. She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company. Prospects of stopping the project did not look good. The governor was in favor of it, and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it. “The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do.” Behind the scenes, however, opposition was growing, so Erica became the spokesperson for the youth of the town. She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipeline, using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses. She talked to the media, and stories about the dangers of the proposed facility began appearing in the press. “We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea.” In July 2007, the governor made an unexpected move: He turned down the project. Erica and her friends won! As only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. She likes to quote the words of her role model, Cesar Chavez: “We are the future. The future is ours.” 4. What can be learned about the planned processing station? A. It would change the climate. B. It would depend on seawater to clean generators. C. It was designed to provide local energy. D. It would do harm to local ecosystem. 5. What does “The word on the street” in paragraph 2 probably refer to? A. The official announcement. B. The common belief among people. C. The false news spread by the media. D. The instruction from the government. 6. Which of the following can best describe Erica? A. Idealistic and friendly. B. Brave and determined. C. Patient and organized. D. Creative and artistic. 7. What can we learn from Erica’s story? A. Courage is always rewarded in the end. B. Success relies on teamwork and cooperation. C. Young people can make a difference if they speak up. D. Environmental protection should come before economic development. C In the summer months, fireflies (萤火虫) become lively, starting their “love stories”. Male fireflies fly around and a part of their belly (腹部) will light up. Then females sitting on the ground look up at the show and flash back to the males they like. They’re not going to mate unless they’ve exchanged these light signals. Firefly species have performed that for millions of years, lit only by the moon. Now humans are damaging their feelings, turning on street lights and LEDs at the fireflies’ summer party. In the firefly world, it’s the females who are particularly turned off by man-made light. Owens, a researcher at Harvard University, led studies in experimental conditions and field conditions and found that male fireflies often keep flashing under street lights and other kinds of overhead light, while female fireflies, active at night, basically shut down and stop reacting. “Probably because they just can’t see the males very well,” Owens explained. “Typically male fireflies are looking down. Female fireflies are looking up at street lights and other light sources.” In lab conditions, not one of 20 pairs mated successfully under bright lights, while about half of firefly couples mated successfully in natural dim light. In the last decade, the night sky became twice as bright due to the increasing use of LEDs, Owens said, which hurts the populations of fireflies. Sadly, no fireflies are protected under the Endangered Species Act presently. “I like people to think about firefly extinction (灭绝) as sitting in a room of candles, and it’s beautiful,” said Sara Lewis, a professor of biology at Tufts University. “And if one or two of those candles went out, you probably don’t even notice it, but if that continues, eventually you are left sitting in complete darkness.” 8. What is the main problem for fireflies caused by man-made light? A. It confuses their sense of direction. B. It prevents them from finding mates. C. It reduces their ability to produce light. D. It makes them more visible to other insects. 9. What did Owens’ lab experiment show? A. Bright lights help fireflies find mates faster. B. Male fireflies stop flashing under bright lights. C. Female fireflies prefer bright lights to dim light. D. No fireflies managed to mate under bright lights. 10. What does Sara Lewis mean by comparing firefly extinction to candles? A. Fireflies need darkness to survive. B. Fireflies are as beautiful as candles. C. Fireflies extinction happens gradually. D. Fireflies are easily destroyed as candles. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Fireflies’ Habits: A Natural Wonder B. Man-made Light: A Threat to Fireflies’ Mating C. Fireflies’ Signals: A Mysterious Language D. Scientists’ Studies: A Key to Fireflies’ Survival D Every time you crowd into a packed plane, you might wonder if you will catch something from the person sitting next to you — or a few rows away. You’re not alone: researchers share that curiosity. Erica, associate professor at Northwestern University, and her colleagues tried to find out by testing face masks worn by passengers on flights to document what kinds of bugs they trapped. The team was also interested in the air circulating in hospitals and tested face masks worn by hospital staff. They collected 53 masks for analysis. They detected 407 total microbial (微生物) species from both the plane and hospital settings, with similar populations of bugs from each. The vast majority of these came from skin and are harmless, says Erica. She says most airborne microbes come from our skin, as we shed (使掉落) them everywhere we go. The kits that the team used were designed to collect DNA, so that meant the researchers primarily captured bacteria — not viruses, many of which have RNA as their genetic base (like influenza). Erica says that viruses likely make up a smaller proportion of microbes in the air than bacteria, since people shed more skin bacteria than virus particles. She notes that viruses tend to heavily depend on the right habitat in order to thrive, and once outside the body and away from cells that they can infect, they can become slightly less pernicious. The results of the study highlight the importance of developing better ways to monitor the air for disease-causing pathogens (病原体), including viruses, using sensing systems that could provide more real-time readings. “Imagine something like a gas alarm that, depending on the levels of microbes present, could automatically increase air-exchange rates or alert people to put on masks,” says Erica. Erica hopes people will remember that the air — even in tight places like a plane or hospital — may not be as full of disease-causing bacteria as we think. Still, if you are worried about getting sick, face masks are an effective way to protect yourself from pathogens, as well as protecting you from spreading bacteria to others if you are ill. 12. Why did Erica and her colleagues carry out the study? A. To compare bugs in different settings. B. To design a new air conditioning system. C. To explore infection risks in specific places. D. To prove that using face masks is ineffective. 13. How did the team collect data for their research? A. By examining DNA from skin samples. B. By tracking viruses spread among patients. C. By checking air quality inside the airplanes. D. By testing face masks from different groups. 14. What does the underlined word “pernicious” most probably mean in paragraph 4? A. Rare. B. Harmful. C. Visible. D. Stable. 15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Viruses are the main microbes in the air. B. Real-time air monitoring is now widely used. C. Shed skin spreads more bacteria than viruses. D. People needn’t overreact to the air in tight spaces. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). ____16____ Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service. Starting small. “Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner. ____17____ Try opening a window, sitting by natural light, or bringing nature indoors with plants. When you’re ready, aim for short, achievable goals like a five-minute walk. You don’t need hours. Aiming for regular activity is key. ____18____ Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial. “If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says. “____19____ You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” Group support. Social commitments can also act as motivation for people with depression and anxiety. Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help. ____20____ “People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth. “It doesn’t matter where people are now in their lives, they’ve had to work to get there. And you’ll get there too.” A. A clear goal. B. A structured approach. C. However, don’t compare yourself to others. D. A disorganized life can affect your motivation. E. Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more. F. But time in nature isn’t the only cure for mental health problems. G. If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits. 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Seven years ago, a college freshman named Joey Romano was lying on the ground with a broken ankle after taking a ____21____ turn on his skateboard to avoid a car.

From the age of seven, his fingers danced across the ivory keys, filling his home with melodies that echoed off the walls. Music was his voice, his comfort, his identity. However, everything changed when his family moved to a bustling metropolis during his senior year. Here, in a massive high school with thousands of students, Ethan became just another face in the crowd. The first few months were brutal. In his old school, he was a big fish in a small pond. Here, he was invisible. During lunch, he sat alone, picking at his food while conversations swirled around him like a foreign language. He watched groups of friends laugh and share secrets, feeling a profound sense of loneliness. He stopped playing the piano altogether. The grand piano in his new apartment’s living room remained untouched, a silent monument to a life he felt he had lost. He threw himself into textbooks, believing that academic perfection was his only path to recognition. But the silence inside him grew louder each day. One Friday afternoon, Ethan was packing his bag, eager to escape the crowded hallway. Suddenly, a gentle hand on his shoulder stopped him. He turned to see Mrs. Laurent, the silver-haired music teacher, her eyes twinkling behind her glasses. “Ethan, I’ve been reviewing your transfer record,” she said, her voice soft but firm. “It says here you’re a pianist. The annual school talent show is next month.” Ethan felt his cheeks flush. He shook his head, muttering an excuse about being too busy with schoolwork. Mrs. Laurent didn’t look disappointed. Instead, she smiled knowingly. “Music isn’t just about performing for others, Ethan. Sometimes, it’s about finding the parts of yourself you’ve forgotten.” She handed him a flyer for the talent show and walked away, leaving the words hanging in the air like a lingering note. That night, Ethan lay in bed, Mrs. Laurent’s words echoing in his mind. He thought about the dusty piano in the corner of the living room. A wave of longing, mixed with fear, washed over him. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为 150 个左右; (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The next evening, drawn by an irresistible force, Ethan lifted the keyboard cover of the piano. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: On the night of the talent show, as he walked off the stage amidst thunderous applause, Ethan saw Mrs. Laurent waiting in the wings. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年第二学期高二年级期中调研测试 (二) 高二英语 2026. 5 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.

The building itself is designed to be a copy of the structure of iron crystal. 1. Which of the following building hasn't been completed by now? A. Habitat 67. B. Sagrada Familia. C. Longaberger Basket Building. D. Atomium. 2. What does Longaberger Basket Building look like? A. A basket. B. A garden. C. A row of books. D. An iron crystal. 3. What do Habitat 67 and Atomium have in common? A. They are residential buildings. B. They were built for World's Fairs. C. They were designed by Moshe Safdie. D. They contain exhibition rooms and public halls. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了世界上四种独特的建筑。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Sagrada Familia(Barcelona, Spain)部分“When it's finally finished in 2026, its iconic design will have long since been established as one of the great achievements of architecture. (当它最终于2026年完工时，它的标志性建筑将早已成为建筑史上最伟大的成就之一。)”可知，Sagrada Familia目前还没完工，故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Longaberger Basket Building(Newark, America)部分“Head office of the Longaberger Company produces baskets which can be found around the world. The Longaberger founder's son wanted all the other Longaberger buildings to look like its products too. (Longaberger公司总部生产的篮子在世界各地都能找到。Longaberger创始人的儿子希望所有其他Longaberger建筑看起来像它的产品。)”可知，Longaberger的建筑看起来像它自己的产品，也就是篮子，故选A。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Habitat 67(Montreal, Canada)部分“Habitat 67's unique architecture was designed by a young Canadian-Israeli immigrant named Moshe Safdie for Montreal's 1967 Universal Exposition (博览会). (Habitat 67独特的建筑是由一名叫Moshe Safdie的加拿大裔以色列年轻移民设计师设计的，是为1967年的蒙特利尔世界博览会而建造的。)”和Atomium(Brussels, Belgium)部分“Another example of an offbeat construction for a World's Fair, the Atomium was built for the 1958 edition of the Universal Exposition held in Brussels, Belgium by André Waterkeyn. (另一个为世界博览会而建造的另类建筑例子Atomium，它是设计师André Waterkeyn为1985年在比利时布鲁塞尔举行的世界博览会建造的。)”可知，这两个建筑都是为了世界博览会而修建的，故选B。 B Back in 2003, Erica Hernandez was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach. They overheard a plan to build a processing station for natural gas 14 miles off the coast of Oxnard. The plan would send over 200 tons of air pollution per year to Erica’s community. Not only that, the station would take in millions of gallons of seawater per day to cool its generators, and discharge the water more than 15 degrees centigrade hotter than the surrounding ocean. This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem, killing tiny creatures and small fish crucial to the survival of marine mammals and fisheries. Erica cared too much to stay silent. She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company. Prospects of stopping the project did not look good. The governor was in favor of it, and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it. “The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do.” Behind the scenes, however, opposition was growing, so Erica became the spokesperson for the youth of the town. She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipeline, using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses. She talked to the media, and stories about the dangers of the proposed facility began appearing in the press. “We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea.” In July 2007, the governor made an unexpected move: He turned down the project. Erica and her friends won! As only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. She likes to quote the words of her role model, Cesar Chavez: “We are the future. The future is ours.” 4. What can be learned about the planned processing station? A. It would change the climate. B. It would depend on seawater to clean generators. C. It was designed to provide local energy. D. It would do harm to local ecosystem. 5. What does “The word on the street” in paragraph 2 probably refer to? A. The official announcement. B. The common belief among people. C. The false news spread by the media. D. The instruction from the government. 6. Which of the following can best describe Erica? A. Idealistic and friendly. B. Brave and determined. C. Patient and organized. D. Creative and artistic. 7. What can we learn from Erica’s story? A. Courage is always rewarded in the end. B. Success relies on teamwork and cooperation. C. Young people can make a difference if they speak up. D. Environmental protection should come before economic development. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述少女埃丽卡发现近海天然气加工站项目会污染环境、破坏海洋生态，她挺身而出带领同伴抗议、积极发声，最终成功阻止项目推进，并立志成为环保律师，鼓励年轻人勇敢表达立场的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem, killing tiny creatures and small fish crucial to the survival of marine mammals and fisheries.(这种高温废水会对周围的生态系统造成严重破坏，杀死对海洋哺乳动物和渔业生存至关重要的微小生物和小鱼)”可知，计划中的处理站会对当地生态系统造成危害。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Prospects of stopping the project did not look good. The governor was in favor of it, and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it. “The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do.”(阻止该项目的前景看起来不太好。州长支持它，必须批准该项目的强大的州委员会也支持它。“The word on the street我们无能为力。”)”可知，阻止该项目的前景看起来不太好，所以人们普遍的看法认为我们无能为力，“The word on the street”指人们普遍的看法。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Erica cared too much to stay silent. She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company.(Erica 非常关心此事，无法保持沉默。她和朋友们每周在天然气公司办公室进行抗议)”以及第三段“She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipeline, using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses. She talked to the media, and stories about the dangers of the proposed facility began appearing in the press. “We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea.”(她经常沿着拟议中的管道路线在社区里走动，用呼啦圈向人们展示将从他们房子旁边经过的管道的大小。她与媒体交谈，关于拟议设施危险的报道开始出现在新闻中。“我们打了数千个电话，寄了数千张明信片，告诉州长为什么这个设施是个坏主意。”)”可知，Erica面对不利局面不退缩，积极采取行动，勇敢且坚定。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“As only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. She likes to quote the words of her role model, Cesar Chavez: “We are the future. The future is ours.”(埃里卡是家里第二位考上大学的人。她立志成为一名环境律师，为生态环境发声，也为社区民众争取权益。她希望其他年轻人在发现不公之事时能够勇敢站出来，哪怕起初心怀胆怯。她常引用自己的榜样塞萨尔・查韦斯的名言：“我们就是未来，未来由我们主宰。”)”可知，文章讲述Erica作为年轻人，勇敢发声，为保护环境抗争并取得胜利，这表明年轻人勇敢表达观点能带来改变。 C In the summer months, fireflies (萤火虫) become lively, starting their “love stories”. Male fireflies fly around and a part of their belly (腹部) will light up. Then females sitting on the ground look up at the show and flash back to the males they like. They’re not going to mate unless they’ve exchanged these light signals. Firefly species have performed that for millions of years, lit only by the moon. Now humans are damaging their feelings, turning on street lights and LEDs at the fireflies’ summer party. In the firefly world, it’s the females who are particularly turned off by man-made light. Owens, a researcher at Harvard University, led studies in experimental conditions and field conditions and found that male fireflies often keep flashing under street lights and other kinds of overhead light, while female fireflies, active at night, basically shut down and stop reacting. “Probably because they just can’t see the males very well,” Owens explained. “Typically male fireflies are looking down. Female fireflies are looking up at street lights and other light sources.” In lab conditions, not one of 20 pairs mated successfully under bright lights, while about half of firefly couples mated successfully in natural dim light. In the last decade, the night sky became twice as bright due to the increasing use of LEDs, Owens said, which hurts the populations of fireflies. Sadly, no fireflies are protected under the Endangered Species Act presently. “I like people to think about firefly extinction (灭绝) as sitting in a room of candles, and it’s beautiful,” said Sara Lewis, a professor of biology at Tufts University. “And if one or two of those candles went out, you probably don’t even notice it, but if that continues, eventually you are left sitting in complete darkness.” 8. What is the main problem for fireflies caused by man-made light? A. It confuses their sense of direction. B. It prevents them from finding mates. C. It reduces their ability to produce light. D. It makes them more visible to other insects. 9. What did Owens’ lab experiment show? A. Bright lights help fireflies find mates faster. B. Male fireflies stop flashing under bright lights. C. Female fireflies prefer bright lights to dim light. D. No fireflies managed to mate under bright lights. 10. What does Sara Lewis mean by comparing firefly extinction to candles? A. Fireflies need darkness to survive. B. Fireflies are as beautiful as candles. C. Fireflies extinction happens gradually. D. Fireflies are easily destroyed as candles. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Fireflies’ Habits: A Natural Wonder B. Man-made Light: A Threat to Fireflies’ Mating C. Fireflies’ Signals: A Mysterious Language D. Scientists’ Studies: A Key to Fireflies’ Survival 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了人造光对萤火虫的求偶和繁衍造成严重干扰，长此以往可能导致其灭绝。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Owens, a researcher at Harvard University, led studies in experimental conditions and field conditions and found that male fireflies often keep flashing under street lights and other kinds of overhead light, while female fireflies, active at night, basically shut down and stop reacting.(哈佛大学的研究员欧文斯在实验环境和实地环境中进行了相关研究，发现雄性萤火虫在街灯和其他高架光源下常常持续闪烁，而夜间活跃的雌性萤火虫则基本停止活动并不再做出反应)”可知，人造灯光使萤火虫无法找到配偶。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In lab conditions, not one of 20 pairs mated successfully under bright lights, while about half of firefly couples mated successfully in natural dim light.(在实验室条件下，20对萤火虫中没有一对在强光下成功交配，而约有一半的萤火虫对在自然昏暗光线下成功交配)”可知，在强光照射下，没有一只萤火虫能够成功交配。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““I like people to think about firefly extinction (灭绝) as sitting in a room of candles, and it’s beautiful,” said Sara Lewis, a professor of biology at Tufts University. “And if one or two of those candles went out, you probably don’t even notice it, but if that continues, eventually you are left sitting in complete darkness.”(塔夫茨大学的生物学教授萨拉·利维斯说：“我希望人们能将萤火虫的灭绝想象成置身于一屋子的蜡烛之中，那是一种很美的景象。”“如果其中有一两支蜡烛熄灭了，你可能根本察觉不到，但如果这种情况持续下去，最终你就会发现自己置身于一片漆黑之中。”)”可知，萨拉·刘易斯将萤火虫的灭绝与蜡烛的消失相提并论，意思是萤火虫的灭绝是渐进式的。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Firefly species have performed that for millions of years, lit only by the moon. Now humans are damaging their feelings, turning on street lights and LED s at the fireflies’ summer party.(萤火虫种群数百万年来一直以这种方式活动，仅靠月亮的光亮照明。如今人类却在破坏它们的生存环境，纷纷开启街灯和 LED 灯，干扰了萤火虫在夏季聚会时的正常活动)”结合文章主要讲述了人造光对萤火虫的求偶和繁衍造成严重干扰，长此以往可能导致其灭绝。可知，B选项“人造光源：对萤火虫求偶行为的威胁”最符合文章标题。 D Every time you crowd into a packed plane, you might wonder if you will catch something from the person sitting next to you — or a few rows away. You’re not alone: researchers share that curiosity. Erica, associate professor at Northwestern University, and her colleagues tried to find out by testing face masks worn by passengers on flights to document what kinds of bugs they trapped. The team was also interested in the air circulating in hospitals and tested face masks worn by hospital staff. They collected 53 masks for analysis. They detected 407 total microbial (微生物) species from both the plane and hospital settings, with similar populations of bugs from each. The vast majority of these came from skin and are harmless, says Erica. She says most airborne microbes come from our skin, as we shed (使掉落) them everywhere we go. The kits that the team used were designed to collect DNA, so that meant the researchers primarily captured bacteria — not viruses, many of which have RNA as their genetic base (like influenza). Erica says that viruses likely make up a smaller proportion of microbes in the air than bacteria, since people shed more skin bacteria than virus particles. She notes that viruses tend to heavily depend on the right habitat in order to thrive, and once outside the body and away from cells that they can infect, they can become slightly less pernicious. The results of the study highlight the importance of developing better ways to monitor the air for disease-causing pathogens (病原体), including viruses, using sensing systems that could provide more real-time readings. “Imagine something like a gas alarm that, depending on the levels of microbes present, could automatically increase air-exchange rates or alert people to put on masks,” says Erica. Erica hopes people will remember that the air — even in tight places like a plane or hospital — may not be as full of disease-causing bacteria as we think. Still, if you are worried about getting sick, face masks are an effective way to protect yourself from pathogens, as well as protecting you from spreading bacteria to others if you are ill. 12. Why did Erica and her colleagues carry out the study? A. To compare bugs in different settings. B. To design a new air conditioning system. C. To explore infection risks in specific places. D. To prove that using face masks is ineffective. 13. How did the team collect data for their research? A. By examining DNA from skin samples. B. By tracking viruses spread among patients. C. By checking air quality inside the airplanes. D. By testing face masks from different groups. 14. What does the underlined word “pernicious” most probably mean in paragraph 4? A. Rare. B. Harmful. C. Visible. D. Stable. 15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Viruses are the main microbes in the air. B. Real-time air monitoring is now widely used. C. Shed skin spreads more bacteria than viruses. D. People needn’t overreact to the air in tight spaces. 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了研究检测飞机和医院口罩中的微生物，发现大多无害且以细菌为主，病毒离体后危害减弱，密闭空间空气致病风险较低，口罩仍能有效防护。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Erica, associate professor at Northwestern University, and her colleagues tried to find out by testing face masks worn by passengers on flights to document what kinds of bugs they trapped. (西北大学的艾丽卡副教授及其团队通过测试飞往目的地航班上的乘客所佩戴的口罩，试图弄清楚这些口罩上究竟捕获了何种病菌。)”可知，埃丽卡和她的同事们开展这项研究是为了探究特定区域的感染风险。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The team was also interested in the air circulating in hospitals and tested face masks worn by hospital staff. They collected 53 masks for analysis. (该团队还对医院内的空气流动情况进行了研究，并对医院工作人员所佩戴的口罩进行了检测。他们收集了53个口罩用于分析。)”可知，该团队通过测试来自不同群体的口罩收集研究数据。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“viruses tend to heavily depend on the right habitat in order to thrive, and once outside the body and away from cells that they can infect, they can become slightly less (病毒往往非常依赖适宜的生存环境才能繁衍，一旦离开人体并远离它们能够感染的细胞，他们就会变得没那么……)”可知，病毒离开人体与宿主细胞后，生存条件变差，危害性下降。故划线词意思是“有害的”。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Erica hopes people will remember that the air — even in tight places like a plane or hospital — may not be as full of disease-causing bacteria as we think. (埃丽卡希望人们能明白，即便是在像飞机或医院这样的密闭环境中，空气里可能也不像我们想象的那样充满致病细菌。)”可知，人们不必对密闭空间内的空气过度担忧。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD). ____16____ Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service. Starting small. “Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner. ____17____ Try opening a window, sitting by natural light, or bringing nature indoors with plants. When you’re ready, aim for short, achievable goals like a five-minute walk. You don’t need hours. Aiming for regular activity is key. ____18____ Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial. “If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says. “____19____ You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” Group support. Social commitments can also act as motivation for people with depression and anxiety. Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help. ____20____ “People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth. “It doesn’t matter where people are now in their lives, they’ve had to work to get there. And you’ll get there too.” A. A clear goal. B. A structured approach. C. However, don’t compare yourself to others. D. A disorganized life can affect your motivation. E. Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more. F. But time in nature isn’t the only cure for mental health problems. G. If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits. 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. B 19. D 20. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文针对冬季人们容易情绪低落的问题，指出户外活动是改善心理健康的有效方法，并给出了三条实用建议：从小事做起、采用有条理的方法、寻求团体支持。 【16题详解】 上文“It’s easy to give in to the winter hibernation (冬眠) urge — but countless studies have shown that outdoors activity is one of the best ways to reduce your risk of anxiety, depression and seasonal affective disorder (SAD).( 很容易就会受到冬季冬眠情绪的诱惑——但无数研究都表明，进行户外活动是降低焦虑、抑郁和季节性情感障碍（SAD）风险的最佳方式之一。)”用大量研究证明了户外活动对缓解焦虑、抑郁和季节性情绪失调的显著效果。下文“Here’s how to make the best use of our natural health service.( 以下是充分利用我们这一天然健康资源的方法。)”自然过渡到“如何充分利用这一天然健康服务”。E 选项“Therefore, doctors are encouraging people to go outdoors more.( 因此，医生们鼓励人们多去户外活动。)”用“Therefore”承接前文的科学结论，引出医生的建议，完美起到了承上启下的作用。故选E项。 【17题详解】 上文““Sometimes getting out and running 5km was like climbing Everest. It would take me all day just to find the energy to get out,” says Alex Staniforth, a mental health campaigner.( “有时候出去跑 5 公里就像攀登珠穆朗玛峰。我得花一整天的时间才能找到出门的动力，”心理健康活动家亚历克斯·斯坦菲斯通说道。)”引用心理健康活动家亚历克斯的话，描述了很多人在冬季连出门都异常困难的状态。空格后紧接着给出了开窗、坐自然光下、5分钟散步等一系列“小事”的建议。G选项“If this sounds familiar, remember even small steps can bring benefits.( 如果这听起来很熟悉，请记住即使是小的行动也能带来好处。)”中的“this”精准指代前文提到的“难以出门”的困境，同时引出后文“小步骤也有大作用” 的核心观点。故选G项。 【18题详解】 空格是本段的小标题，需要概括全段主旨。下文“Mental health and fitness coach Gareth Jones emphasized that good planning and structure are crucial.( 心理健康和健身教练加雷斯·琼斯强调，良好的规划和结构至关重要。)”就明确指出良好的计划和条理至关重要，并通过“提前准备好所有装备”的例子进行了具体说明。B选项“A structured approach.( 有条理的方法。)”精准概括了本段核心内容。故选B项。 【19题详解】 上文““If you know you’re struggling with motivation, laying out all your kit — from your socks all the way up to the food you’re going to take — can be helpful,” he says.( “如果你知道自己在缺乏动力方面存在困难，准备好所有你需要的东西——从袜子一直到你要带的食物——可能会有所帮助，”他说。)”强调提前准备好装备的重要性，下文“You might want to get out when you get to the front door — but if you have to go and search for your trainers because they’re lost under the stairs somewhere, you may not feel like going out at all.” (当你走到前门时，也许你已经想出门了——但如果还得去楼梯下面找丢失的运动鞋，你可能就一点也不想出门了。”)”从反面说明“如果还要到处找运动鞋，可能就不想出门了”。D 选项“A disorganized life can affect your motivation.( 杂乱的生活会影响你的动力。)”正好连接正反两方面的论证，逻辑严密。故选D项。 【20题详解】 上文“Having other people around us — whether that’s joining a club or committing to something with a friend — can really help.( 身边有其他人的陪伴——无论是加入一个俱乐部还是与朋友一起参与某项活动——真的很有帮助。)”讲完团体支持的好处后，用 “However”进行转折。下文““People are very quick to post their accomplishments on social media, but what you don’t see is the build-up,” says Gareth.( “人们会在社交媒体上迅速晒出自己的成就，但你看不到的是背后的积累过程，”加雷斯说)”引用加雷斯的话，指出社交媒体上展示的只是别人的成就，看不到背后的付出，不要盲目比较。C 选项“However, don’t compare yourself to others.( 但是，不要拿自己和他人作比较。)”直接点明了本段后半部分的核心观点，与后文内容完全呼应。故选C项。 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和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Seven years ago, a college freshman named Joey Romano was lying on the ground with a broken ankle after taking a ____21____ turn on his skateboard to avoid a car.

From the age of seven, his fingers danced across the ivory keys, filling his home with melodies that echoed off the walls. Music was his voice, his comfort, his identity. However, everything changed when his family moved to a bustling metropolis during his senior year. Here, in a massive high school with thousands of students, Ethan became just another face in the crowd. The first few months were brutal. In his old school, he was a big fish in a small pond. Here, he was invisible. During lunch, he sat alone, picking at his food while conversations swirled around him like a foreign language. He watched groups of friends laugh and share secrets, feeling a profound sense of loneliness. He stopped playing the piano altogether. The grand piano in his new apartment’s living room remained untouched, a silent monument to a life he felt he had lost. He threw himself into textbooks, believing that academic perfection was his only path to recognition. But the silence inside him grew louder each day. One Friday afternoon, Ethan was packing his bag, eager to escape the crowded hallway. Suddenly, a gentle hand on his shoulder stopped him. He turned to see Mrs. Laurent, the silver-haired music teacher, her eyes twinkling behind her glasses. “Ethan, I’ve been reviewing your transfer record,” she said, her voice soft but firm. “It says here you’re a pianist. The annual school talent show is next month.” Ethan felt his cheeks flush. He shook his head, muttering an excuse about being too busy with schoolwork. Mrs. Laurent didn’t look disappointed. Instead, she smiled knowingly. “Music isn’t just about performing for others, Ethan. Sometimes, it’s about finding the parts of yourself you’ve forgotten.” She handed him a flyer for the talent show and walked away, leaving the words hanging in the air like a lingering note. That night, Ethan lay in bed, Mrs. Laurent’s words echoing in his mind. He thought about the dusty piano in the corner of the living room. A wave of longing, mixed with fear, washed over him. 注意： (1) 续写词数应为 150 个左右; (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: The next evening, drawn by an irresistible force, Ethan lifted the keyboard cover of the piano. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: On the night of the talent show, as he walked off the stage amidst thunderous applause, Ethan saw Mrs. Laurent waiting in the wings. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The next evening, drawn by an irresistible force, Ethan lifted the keyboard cover of the piano. His fingers hesitated at first, then began to move tentatively across the keys. As the familiar melodies filled the room, a warmth spread through him. The music was like an old friend, welcoming him back. He played with increasing confidence, losing himself in the rhythm. For the first time since moving, he felt truly alive. On the night of the talent show, as he walked off the stage amidst thunderous applause, Ethan saw Mrs. Laurent waiting in the wings. She gave him a proud smile and a thumbs-up. “You did it, Ethan,” she said. “You found yourself again through music.” Ethan felt a lump in his throat. He realized that music wasn’t just about being recognized; it was about connecting with his inner self and sharing that joy with others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了伊桑在小镇上以“钢琴小子”闻名，但搬到大城市后，他感到孤独并停止了弹钢琴，直到音乐老师劳伦特夫人鼓励他参加学校才艺表演，他才重新找回对音乐的热爱和自我认同的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句可知，第一段可描写伊桑重新开始弹钢琴，并在这个过程中逐渐找回自信和快乐，感受到久违的活力。 ②由第二段首句可知，第二段可描写劳伦特夫人对伊桑的肯定和鼓励，以及伊桑对音乐的新认识，即音乐不仅是获得认可的方式，更是与内心自我连接并与他人分享快乐的方式。 2.续写线索：伊桑被吸引开始弹钢琴——找回自信和快乐——才艺表演当晚走下舞台——劳伦特夫人的肯定和鼓励——伊桑对音乐的新认识。 3.词汇积累 行为类 ①犹豫：hesitate/hold back/falter ②沉浸于：lose oneself in/be absorbed in/be immersed in ③竖起大拇指：give a thumbs-up/raise one’s thumb 情绪类 ①充满活力的：alive/vigorous/energetic ②高兴：joy/happiness/delight 【点睛】【高分句型1】As the familiar melodies filled the room, a warmth spread through him.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】He realized that music wasn’t just about being recognized; it was about connecting with his inner self and sharing that joy with others.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
