2026届高三第二学期第三次模拟考试英语试题 考试时间： 120分钟 满分：120 分 第二部分 阅读理解（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 Composition of E-Waste Nowadays, e-waste is one of the world’s fastest-growing waste streams. Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks. However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tons of metals, 17 million tons of plastics, and 14 million tons of glass. One ton of circuit boards (电路板) can contain up to 800 times more precious metals than a ton of gold-bearing rocks in the natural mines. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable industries. Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws, and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, mend items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 1. What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions? A. 12%. B. 14%. C. 17%. D. 60%. 2. What is a key advantage of e-waste compared to natural mines? A. It contains more rare elements. B. It provides more recoverable non-metals. C. It can be richer in precious metals. D. It works better as building materials. 3. What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A. Invest in formal recycling facilities. B. Launch public awareness campaigns. C. Set clear personal take-back plans. D. Choose repair over replacement. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了电子废弃物的成分占比、危害与回收价值，阐述电子废弃物被称为“城市矿山”的原因，介绍了其回收利用的优势、行业发展现状，并提出改善电子废弃物回收的具体举措。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据数据“Screens (CRT and LCD) (12%)”和“Cables (2%)”，计算可得12%+2%=14%。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One ton of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more precious metals than a ton of gold-bearing rocks in the natural mines(一吨电路板所含的贵金属含量，最高可达一吨天然含金矿石的800倍)”可知，相比天然矿山，电子废弃物的贵金属含量更高。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, mend items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments(个人应将电子废弃物投放至指定回收点，修补旧物品而非直接丢弃，支持环保品牌)”可知，个人可以通过维修旧物品、不随意更换新物品助力回收。 B My small backyard had been neglected for years with overgrown weeds and dry soil. Last summer, I determined to transform it: I bought seeds, soil, and basic tools, eager to start my gardening project. The first few weeks were disheartening. The seeds either failed to grow or were eaten by birds. I watered tirelessly every day, adjusted sunlight, and tended to them constantly, yet nothing grew. I was ready to quit, convinced I had no talent for gardening. One afternoon, my neighbor Mr. Henderson, who tended his roses daily, watched me and said gently: “You’re trying too hard. Plants need care, but also space to grow on their own.” His words made sense. I relaxed: watered less often, let rain do its part, and stopped overthinking. Soon, tiny green buds emerged. By August, my backyard bloomed with color and scent; I’d sit there evenings, tasting tea, amazed by their beauty. Then a storm hit — strong winds knocked over my sunflowers. Heartbroken, I planned to pull them up, but Mr. Henderson appeared again: “Don’t give up. The strongest plants survive storms — they’ll heal if you give them a chance.” Weeks later, those sunflowers stood taller and stronger, their golden heads turning to the sun. I realized gardening wasn’t just about growing plants. All things have their own rhythm of recovery; what we struggle to control often fails, while what we gently trust finds its way back to light. The world does not always bend to our hurry, and neither do the things we care for. Some winds are meant to strengthen us, not break us. This summer, I’ll plant more seeds, both in the garden and in my heart. Growth takes time, and even life’s hardest moments are our greatest teachers. 4. Why does the author think she has no talent for gardening? A. She didn’t know how to use tools. B. She worked hard caring plants but in vain. C. She didn’t have a good taste for plants. D. She was slow in learning plant knowledge. 5. How did the author respond to Mr. Henderson’s advice? A. Let nature take its course. B. Stop watering the seeds. C. Ask him to look after her garden. D. Learn to enjoy the garden’s beauty. 6. Why are the sunflowers mentioned in the text? A. To present the risks of gardening. B. To highlight the delicacy of young plants. C. To illustrate the cruelty of natural disasters. D. To show the strength and energy of plants. 7. What can be inferred about the author? A. She never gives up when things get difficult. B. She believes success comes from effort and luck. C. She considers gardening the top priority in her life. D. She reshapes her gardening mindset in light of experiences. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述作者打理荒废后院花园的亲身经历。作者起初急于求成、过度养护却毫无收获，在邻居的点拨下顺其自然、适度放手，又在向日葵历经风雨愈发茁壮的经历中感悟：万物生长自有节奏，成长需要时间，困境磨难会磨练人与事物的意志。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I watered tirelessly every day, adjusted sunlight, and tended to them constantly, yet nothing grew. I was ready to quit, convinced I had no talent for gardening(我日复一日不辞辛劳地浇水、调整光照、悉心照料，可植株始终不见生长。我打算就此放弃，认定自己完全没有园艺天赋)”可知，作者努力照料植物却徒劳无功，因此认为自己没有园艺天赋。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段结尾和第三开头““You’re trying too hard. Plants need care, but also space to grow on their own.” His words made sense. I relaxed: watered less often, let rain do its part, and stopped overthinking.(“你太过操心了。植物需要照料，但它们也需要有自己生长的空间。”他的这番话很有道理。我放松了下来：减少浇水的频率，让雨水发挥作用，不再过度纠结)”可知，作者听从建议后减少了人为干预，让自然发挥它的作用。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The strongest plants survive storms — they’ll heal if you give them a chance.(最强的植物能在暴风雨中存活——如果你给它们机会，它们会自愈)”以及第五段“Weeks later, those sunflowers stood taller and stronger, their golden heads turning to the sun.(几周后，那些向日葵站得更高、更壮，金色的花盘转向太阳)”可推知，提及向日葵是为了展现植物经历打击后展现出的顽强生命力与自我修复能力。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，作者最初做事急于求成、过度掌控，接连受挫后听从建议改变养护方式，又从向日葵风雨重生的经历中领悟成长真谛，彻底改变了自己的园艺观念与处事心态。由此可知，作者在经历中重塑了自己的心态。 C Dawn had yet to break over Edmonton, Alberta, as the temperature had plummeted sharply. Still, Tanis Smith bundled up and prepared to run up and down hundreds of stairs among the trees in the Saskatchewan River Valley. When she arrived at 6 a.m., ten other people joined her. It wouldn’t be the last time they risked freezing their feet off to get in a workout before the rest of the world woke up. Since that winter of 2013, Smith has seldom missed a workout with the group, known as the November Project, a network of free outdoor group exercise classes that started in Boston. No matter the month or weather, participants roll out of bed before daybreak at least once a week. It started when a pair of friends challenged each other to exercise every morning for the month of November. By the end of the month, they were persuading others to join them. “A party is better when there are more people around,” said Bojan Mandaric, who co-founded the project with Brogan Graham in 2011. Soon, their meetings were attracting a few dozen people. Now there are 52 chapters in eight countries. Workouts begin with jumping and a call-and-response chant (反复呼喊的话语) to loosen people up physically and mentally. How the classes continue varies depending on the location and day of the week, but most include running and body weight exercises. They also include playful activities that are typical of childhood breaks in the schoolyard. One workout in Boston involved a kind of Easter egg hunt, where participants searched for plastic eggs as quickly as possible, and broke them open to find tasks such as walking like a gorilla (大猩猩), or throwing grass at Mandaric’s head. The point is to help people make connections, said Jason Shaw, co-leader of the Indianapolis chapter. He called the project “a chosen family”, the very thing that he appreciates most. 8. What does the underlined word “plummeted” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. varied B. decreased. C. risen D. recovered 9. What can we learn about the November Project? A. It was created in 2013. B. It has won great popularity. C. It holds competitions regularly. D. It organizes gatherings on a daily basis. 10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The benefits of exercising. B. The rules for playing games. C. The varied workouts. D. The importance of warming up. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. A Running Fan Sets a Good Example. B. Workouts Make a Big Difference. C. Take on a Challenge, Join an Exercise. D. Run with the Group, Run with Great Fun. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了一个名为“十一月计划”的免费户外集体健身团体，讲述了它的起源、发展规模，以及充满趣味和多样性的健身形式。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Dawn had yet to break over Edmonton, Alberta, as the temperature had plummeted sharply. Still, Tanis Smith bundled up and prepared to run up and down hundreds of stairs. (艾伯塔省埃德蒙顿市天还未亮，气温已急剧plummeted。尽管如此，塔尼斯·史密斯还是裹紧衣物，准备在萨斯喀彻温河谷的树林间上下攀登数百级台阶。)”可知，天气寒冷，人们需要裹紧衣服，由此可推断“plummeted”意为“下降”。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Now there are 52 chapters in eight countries. (如今，该团体在8个国家设有52个分部。)”可知，“十一月计划”已经拥有广泛的影响力，非常受欢迎。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。第四段“Workouts begin with jumping and a call-and-response chant (反复呼喊的话语) to loosen people up physically and mentally. How the classes continue varies depending on the location and day of the week, but most include running and body weight exercises. They also include playful activities that are typical of childhood breaks in the schoolyard. One workout in Boston involved a kind of Easter egg hunt, where participants searched for plastic eggs as quickly as possible, and broke them open to find tasks such as walking like a gorilla (大猩猩), or throwing grass at Mandaric’s head. (训练一开始会先进行跳跃运动，并伴有问答式的呼喊声，以帮助人们在身体和精神上放松下来。课程的具体内容会因地点和一周中的不同日子而有所变化，但大多数都会包含跑步和自重训练。此外，还会有一些类似学校操场课间休息时常见的有趣活动。在波士顿的一次训练中，就进行了一种类似复活节寻蛋的游戏，参与者要尽快寻找塑料蛋，并将其打开以完成各种任务，比如像大猩猩一样走路，或者向曼达里克的头上扔草。)”开头提到健身以跳跃和呼喊热身开场，接着说明课程内容因地点和日期而异，大多包含跑步和自重训练，还介绍了波士顿分部类似复活节寻蛋的趣味活动，整体围绕“多样化的健身形式”展开。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕“十一月计划”这一集体户外健身团体展开，既讲述了人们一起跑步锻炼的场景，也强调了健身活动中的趣味性和人际联结，D选项“与团队一起奔跑，尽享运动乐趣”最贴合文章主旨，适合用作标题。 D Many people take vitamin D supplements (补充剂) to keep their bones strong and their immune (免疫) system healthy, especially during winter when sunlight is not enough. However, not all supplements are the same. There are two main types: vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Recent research from British universities reveals a surprising fact: taking vitamin D2 might actually lower the body’s levels of vitamin D3, which is the form our bodies produce naturally from sunlight and use most effectively. A study published in Nutrition Reviews examined data from several trials. It found that people who took vitamin D2 saw their vitamin D3 levels drop compared to those who did not take D2. In many cases, their D3 levels fell even lower than the average. Emily Brown, the lead researcher, explained that while supplements are vital between October and March, choosing the wrong type could be counterproductive. This finding supports earlier research showing that D2 and D3 play different roles in immune function. Professor Colin Smith noted that only vitamin D3 seems to activate a key part of the immune system called the type I interferon signalling system. This system acts as a first line of defence against viruses and bacteria. Therefore, maintaining healthy levels of vitamin D3 could help prevent infections, whereas D2 does not appear to offer the same protection. Experts emphasize the need for further research to confirm these differences. Professor Cathie Martin highlighted the importance of making plant-based vitamin D3 available in the UK, as current options are often limited. With vitamin D deficiency being a major public health issue, especially in winter, choosing the most effective supplement is crucial for national health. In conclusion, while taking vitamin D is important, the type matters significantly. To best support your immune system and overall health, it may be wise to choose vitamin D3 over D2. As science continues to uncover the unique functions of these vitamins, consumers should stay informed to make the best choices for their well-being. 12. What is the main disadvantage of taking vitamin D2 supplements mentioned in the text? A. They are too expensive for most people. B. They reduce the body’s natural vitamin D3 levels. C. They cause serious side effects in winter. D. They are not recommended by the government. 13. Why is vitamin D3 considered more effective for immune protection? A. It is cheaper to produce than vitamin D2. B. It helps the body absorb more sunlight. C. It activates a key defence system against diseases. D. It is the only type available in the UK market. 14. What can be inferred from Professor Cathie Martin’s statement? A. Plant-based vitamin D3 is currently hard to get in the UK. B. Vitamin D2 is better for people who eat plants. C. The government should ban vitamin D2 supplements. D. Most people do not need vitamin D supplements. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text? A. To advertise a new type of vitamin supplement. B. To compare the prices of different vitamins. C. To warn people about a common supplement mistake. D. To explain how sunlight produces vitamin D. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文通过最新科研成果指出服用维生素D2的弊端，证实维生素D3在人体免疫保护方面效果更优，旨在提醒大众科学选择维生素D补充剂，避免日常补充误区。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Recent research from British universities reveals a surprising fact: taking vitamin D2 might actually lower the body’s levels of vitamin D3, which is the form our bodies produce naturally from sunlight and use most effectively.(英国高校的最新研究发现，服用维生素D2会降低人体内维生素D3的含量，维生素D3是人体借助阳光天然生成、利用效率最高的形式)”可知，服用维生素D2的主要弊端是会减少人体天然的维生素D3含量。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Professor Colin Smith noted that only vitamin D3 seems to activate a key part of the immune system called the type I interferon signalling system. This system acts as a first line of defence against viruses and bacteria(科林·史密斯教授指出，只有维生素D3能够激活免疫系统中关键的I型干扰素信号系统，该系统是抵御病毒和细菌的第一道防线)”可知，维生素D3能激活人体关键的抗病防御系统，因此在免疫防护方面效果更好。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Professor Cathie Martin highlighted the importance of making plant-based vitamin D3 available in the UK, as current options are often limited(卡西·马丁教授强调，英国应当推出植物性维生素D3，因为目前这类产品品类十分有限)”可知，在英国，植物性维生素D3目前难以购买。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段“Many people take vitamin D supplements (补充) to keep their bones strong and their immune (免疫) system healthy, especially during winter when sunlight is not enough. However, not all supplements are the same.(许多人会服用维生素D补充剂，以保持骨骼强健和免疫系统健康，尤其是在冬季阳光不足时。然而，并非所有补充剂都相同)”可知，很多人盲目服用维生素D补充剂，却不区分种类，而选错补充剂会起到反作用，作者写作此文意在提醒大众避开选用补充剂的常见误区。 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。 We all want to make lasting changes to our daily behaviors from time to time — perhaps exercise more or spend less time on our phones before bed. But how long does it take to build a habit? ____16____ This number first appeared in a book by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. He reported that his patients needed at least 21 days to change the mental image of how they looked. Since then, many people have applied the “21-day rule” to all habits. ____17____ Some may need more than three weeks to become habits. How long it takes to form a new habit may depend on the habit, on you, and on what methods you’re using to build and maintain it. Studies have shown that habit formation may take anywhere between 18 and 254 days.The average amount of time needed for a behavior to become a habit is 66 days. ____18____ For example, those who were asked to develop a habit of drinking a glass of water at breakfast tended to (往往会) be more successful than those who were asked to do 50 sit-ups each day. In addition, self-efficacy (自我效能感) is the key to developing and maintaining habits. ____19____ Put simply, a person who doesn’t think he can maintain new behaviors will be less likely to keep his habit, It’s also important to make a goal more attractive. Mark Vahrmeyer, a doctor who helps people deal with mental health problems, says,“If the process of building your habit involves nothing but self-sacrifice (自我牺牲) with no reward, you are unlikely to stick to your goals.” ____20____ For example, if the goal is to go to the gym three times a week, a person should pick a gym with a convenient location. A. A popular answer is 21 days. B. It’s also important to repeat a habit. C. However, not all behaviors are the same. D. Habits are the small decisions you make every day. E. He also advises making the process as easy as possible. F. And different actions require a different level of effort too. G. It’s a belief in one’s ability to complete a task or achieve a goal. 【答案】16. A 17. C 18. F 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了如何养成一个习惯。 【16题详解】 根据下文“This number first appeared in a book by Dr. Maxwell Maltz.”(这个数字首次出现在Maxwell Maltz博士的一本书中。)可知，前文提到的是一个具体的数字，A选项“一个流行的答案是21天。” This number指的是21 days。符合语境。故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Since then, many people have applied the“21-day rule”to all habits.”(从那以后，许多人把“21天法则”应用到所有的习惯上。)根据下文“Some may need more than three weeks to become habits.”(有些可能需要超过三周的时间才能成为习惯。)可知，并不是所有行为都一样，C选项“然而，并不是所有行为都是一样的。”选项承上启下。符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据上文“The average amount of time needed for a behavior to become a habit is 66 days.” （一种行为变成习惯的平均时间是66天。）根据下文“For example, those who were asked to develop a habit of drinking a glass of water at breakfast tended to be more successful than those who were asked to do 50 sit-ups each day.”(例如，那些被要求在早餐时养成喝一杯水习惯的人往往比那些被要求每天做50个仰卧起坐的人更成功。)可知，行为不同，所付出的努力程度也不相同。故F选项“不同的行为也需要不同程度的努力。”符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“In addition, self-efficacy (自我效能感)is the key to developing and maintaining habits.”（此外，自我效能感是养成和保持习惯的关键）根据下文“Put simply, a person who doesn’t think he can maintain new behaviors will be less likely to keep his habit,”(简单地说，一个不认为自己能保持新行为的人不太可能保持他的习惯，)可知，选项承接上文继续解释自我效能感，G选项“这是一个人完成任务或实现目标的能力的信念。”符合语境。下文是对选项的解释。故选G。 【20题详解】 根据上文“If the process of building your habit involves nothing but self-sacrifice (自我牺牲) with no reward, you are unlikely to stick to your goals.”（如果养成习惯的过程中除了自我牺牲没有任何回报，你不太可能坚持你的目标。）根据下文“For example, if the goal is to go to the gym three times a week, a person should pick a gym with a convenient location.”(例如，如果目标是每周去健身房三次，一个人应该选择一个位置方便的健身房。)可知，选项承上启下，说明针对上文出现的问题应该采取的措施。E选项“他还建议使过程尽可能简单。”符合语境。下文具体解释了上文的内容。故选E。 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。 My carefree daughters should have been a gift to my task-driven nature, but I was too busy to see it.

It was just the motivation I needed. I was usually a pretty good student, but with that extra push, I was determined to do well on my next math test. Every evening, I buried myself in my notes, practicing problems. My confidence grew with every completed practice test. When the big day arrived, I felt ready. I took a deep breath as I entered the classroom and tried to keep calm. But despite all the preparation, my nerves got the better of me. Halfway through the test, I blanked on a formula, and time was running out. I scribbled down the best answers I could and handed in my paper, hoping for the best. A week later, I got the test back. My heart sank as I saw the big red “A-” at the top. “No game,” I thought miserably. It wasn’t a bad grade, but it wasn’t enough. Disappointed, I stared at the grade, wishing it could magically turn into an “A+”. I could almost hear my mom’s voice, full of pride, congratulating me on my hard work. The idea gnawed (啃咬) at me until I did something I never thought I’d do. I changed the “-” into a “+”. The moment I got home, I handed the test to my mom with a forced smile. She looked at it and congratulated me, hugging me proudly. Then she turned to walk toward her bedroom. My heart raced-part excitement, part a sharp twist of guilt I couldn’t ignore. A moment later, she emerged holding a black box, the logo of the game I’d begged for glinting in the lamplight. “I picked it up yesterday, just knowing my hardworking kid would pull through,” she said, pressing the box into my hands. I forced a thank-you, my voice tight. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Later that night, I tossed and turned in bed, lost in reflection. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, I decided to tell her the truth even if it meant losing the game. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Later that night, I tossed and turned in bed, lost in reflection. I kept thinking about the test, wondering whether I should tell Mom the truth. If I told her, I would lose the game. But if I didn’t, I would be dishonest. I couldn’t sleep. The next morning, I didn’t get up as usual. My mom came into my room and asked what was wrong. I decided to tell her the truth. As I lay there, the image of Mom’s proud smile when she saw my “A+” kept flashing before my eyes, making my chest tight with guilt. The next morning, I decided to tell her the truth even if it meant losing the game. I told Mom I failed the test and she left without saying a word. I thought she would be angry, but when she came back, she said, “I believe you can do better next time.” I was so surprised and I promised to study hard. I learned that my mom loved me and I should be honest. From that day on, I worked harder than ever, determined to earn the trust and respect I truly deserved. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者为了得到妈妈许诺的奖励——一款游戏机，在数学考试中作弊把“-”改为“+”，把考试分数从“A-”改为“A+”，回到家后，妈妈看到作者的成绩很高兴，给他买回了游戏机。作者在晚上辗转反侧，最终决定向妈妈坦白，妈妈也原谅了他。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“那天晚上，我辗转反侧，陷入沉思。”可知，第一段可描写作者内心的挣扎以及回想自己的作弊行为。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，我决定告诉她真相，即使这意味着得不到那款游戏。”可知，第二段可描写作者向妈妈坦白作弊行为，妈妈原谅了作者。 2. 续写线索：辗转反侧—— 回想作弊—— 决定坦白—— 如释重负—— 妈妈原谅 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 想起：think about/ reflect on ② 赢得：earn/ obtain ③ 决定：determine/ resolve 情绪类 ① 生气的：angry/ annoyed ② 惊讶的：surprised/ astonished 【点睛】【高分句型1】As I lay there, the image of Mom’s proud smile when she saw my “A+” kept flashing before my eyes, making my chest tight with guilt.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句，when引导的时间状语从句和现在分词短语making my chest tight with guilt作伴随状语) 【高分句型2】From that day on, I worked harder than ever, determined to earn the trust and respect I truly deserved.(运用了形容词短语作状语和省略了which/that引导的限定性定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026届高三第二学期第三次模拟考试英语试题 考试时间： 120分钟 满分：120 分 第二部分 阅读理解（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 Composition of E-Waste Nowadays, e-waste is one of the world’s fastest-growing waste streams. Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks. However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tons of metals, 17 million tons of plastics, and 14 million tons of glass. One ton of circuit boards (电路板) can contain up to 800 times more precious metals than a ton of gold-bearing rocks in the natural mines. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled. Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable industries. Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, supporting both the economy and the environment. The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals. To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws, and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, mend items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments. 1. What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions? A. 12%. B. 14%. C. 17%. D. 60%. 2. What is a key advantage of e-waste compared to natural mines? A. It contains more rare elements. B. It provides more recoverable non-metals. C. It can be richer in precious metals. D. It works better as building materials. 3. What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste? A. Invest in formal recycling facilities. B. Launch public awareness campaigns. C. Set clear personal take-back plans. D. Choose repair over replacement. B My small backyard had been neglected for years with overgrown weeds and dry soil. Last summer, I determined to transform it: I bought seeds, soil, and basic tools, eager to start my gardening project. The first few weeks were disheartening. The seeds either failed to grow or were eaten by birds. I watered tirelessly every day, adjusted sunlight, and tended to them constantly, yet nothing grew. I was ready to quit, convinced I had no talent for gardening. One afternoon, my neighbor Mr. Henderson, who tended his roses daily, watched me and said gently: “You’re trying too hard. Plants need care, but also space to grow on their own.” His words made sense. I relaxed: watered less often, let rain do its part, and stopped overthinking. Soon, tiny green buds emerged. By August, my backyard bloomed with color and scent; I’d sit there evenings, tasting tea, amazed by their beauty. Then a storm hit — strong winds knocked over my sunflowers. Heartbroken, I planned to pull them up, but Mr. Henderson appeared again: “Don’t give up. The strongest plants survive storms — they’ll heal if you give them a chance.” Weeks later, those sunflowers stood taller and stronger, their golden heads turning to the sun. I realized gardening wasn’t just about growing plants. All things have their own rhythm of recovery; what we struggle to control often fails, while what we gently trust finds its way back to light. The world does not always bend to our hurry, and neither do the things we care for. Some winds are meant to strengthen us, not break us. This summer, I’ll plant more seeds, both in the garden and in my heart. Growth takes time, and even life’s hardest moments are our greatest teachers. 4. Why does the author think she has no talent for gardening? A. She didn’t know how to use tools. B. She worked hard caring plants but in vain. C. She didn’t have a good taste for plants. D. She was slow in learning plant knowledge. 5. How did the author respond to Mr. Henderson’s advice? A. Let nature take its course. B. Stop watering the seeds. C. Ask him to look after her garden. D. Learn to enjoy the garden’s beauty. 6. Why are the sunflowers mentioned in the text? A. To present the risks of gardening. B. To highlight the delicacy of young plants. C. To illustrate the cruelty of natural disasters. D. To show the strength and energy of plants. 7. What can be inferred about the author? A. She never gives up when things get difficult. B. She believes success comes from effort and luck. C. She considers gardening the top priority in her life. D. She reshapes her gardening mindset in light of experiences. C Dawn had yet to break over Edmonton, Alberta, as the temperature had plummeted sharply. Still, Tanis Smith bundled up and prepared to run up and down hundreds of stairs among the trees in the Saskatchewan River Valley. When she arrived at 6 a.m., ten other people joined her. It wouldn’t be the last time they risked freezing their feet off to get in a workout before the rest of the world woke up. Since that winter of 2013, Smith has seldom missed a workout with the group, known as the November Project, a network of free outdoor group exercise classes that started in Boston. No matter the month or weather, participants roll out of bed before daybreak at least once a week. It started when a pair of friends challenged each other to exercise every morning for the month of November. By the end of the month, they were persuading others to join them. “A party is better when there are more people around,” said Bojan Mandaric, who co-founded the project with Brogan Graham in 2011. Soon, their meetings were attracting a few dozen people. Now there are 52 chapters in eight countries. Workouts begin with jumping and a call-and-response chant (反复呼喊的话语) to loosen people up physically and mentally. How the classes continue varies depending on the location and day of the week, but most include running and body weight exercises. They also include playful activities that are typical of childhood breaks in the schoolyard. One workout in Boston involved a kind of Easter egg hunt, where participants searched for plastic eggs as quickly as possible, and broke them open to find tasks such as walking like a gorilla (大猩猩), or throwing grass at Mandaric’s head. The point is to help people make connections, said Jason Shaw, co-leader of the Indianapolis chapter. He called the project “a chosen family”, the very thing that he appreciates most. 8. What does the underlined word “plummeted” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. varied B. decreased. C. risen D. recovered 9. What can we learn about the November Project? A. It was created in 2013. B. It has won great popularity. C. It holds competitions regularly. D. It organizes gatherings on a daily basis. 10. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The benefits of exercising. B. The rules for playing games. C. The varied workouts. D. The importance of warming up. 11. What is a suitable title for the text? A. A Running Fan Sets a Good Example. B. Workouts Make a Big Difference. C. Take on a Challenge, Join an Exercise. D. Run with the Group, Run with Great Fun. D Many people take vitamin D supplements (补充剂) to keep their bones strong and their immune (免疫) system healthy, especially during winter when sunlight is not enough. However, not all supplements are the same. There are two main types: vitamin D2 and vitamin D3. Recent research from British universities reveals a surprising fact: taking vitamin D2 might actually lower the body’s levels of vitamin D3, which is the form our bodies produce naturally from sunlight and use most effectively. A study published in Nutrition Reviews examined data from several trials. It found that people who took vitamin D2 saw their vitamin D3 levels drop compared to those who did not take D2. In many cases, their D3 levels fell even lower than the average. Emily Brown, the lead researcher, explained that while supplements are vital between October and March, choosing the wrong type could be counterproductive. This finding supports earlier research showing that D2 and D3 play different roles in immune function. Professor Colin Smith noted that only vitamin D3 seems to activate a key part of the immune system called the type I interferon signalling system. This system acts as a first line of defence against viruses and bacteria. Therefore, maintaining healthy levels of vitamin D3 could help prevent infections, whereas D2 does not appear to offer the same protection. Experts emphasize the need for further research to confirm these differences. Professor Cathie Martin highlighted the importance of making plant-based vitamin D3 available in the UK, as current options are often limited. With vitamin D deficiency being a major public health issue, especially in winter, choosing the most effective supplement is crucial for national health. In conclusion, while taking vitamin D is important, the type matters significantly. To best support your immune system and overall health, it may be wise to choose vitamin D3 over D2. As science continues to uncover the unique functions of these vitamins, consumers should stay informed to make the best choices for their well-being. 12. What is the main disadvantage of taking vitamin D2 supplements mentioned in the text? A. They are too expensive for most people. B. They reduce the body’s natural vitamin D3 levels. C. They cause serious side effects in winter. D. They are not recommended by the government. 13. Why is vitamin D3 considered more effective for immune protection? A. It is cheaper to produce than vitamin D2. B. It helps the body absorb more sunlight. C. It activates a key defence system against diseases. D. It is the only type available in the UK market. 14. What can be inferred from Professor Cathie Martin’s statement? A. Plant-based vitamin D3 is currently hard to get in the UK. B. Vitamin D2 is better for people who eat plants. C. The government should ban vitamin D2 supplements. D. Most people do not need vitamin D supplements. 15. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text? A. To advertise a new type of vitamin supplement. B. To compare the prices of different vitamins. C. To warn people about a common supplement mistake. D. To explain how sunlight produces vitamin D. 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。 We all want to make lasting changes to our daily behaviors from time to time — perhaps exercise more or spend less time on our phones before bed. But how long does it take to build a habit? ____16____ This number first appeared in a book by Dr. Maxwell Maltz. He reported that his patients needed at least 21 days to change the mental image of how they looked. Since then, many people have applied the “21-day rule” to all habits. ____17____ Some may need more than three weeks to become habits. How long it takes to form a new habit may depend on the habit, on you, and on what methods you’re using to build and maintain it. Studies have shown that habit formation may take anywhere between 18 and 254 days.The average amount of time needed for a behavior to become a habit is 66 days. ____18____ For example, those who were asked to develop a habit of drinking a glass of water at breakfast tended to (往往会) be more successful than those who were asked to do 50 sit-ups each day. In addition, self-efficacy (自我效能感) is the key to developing and maintaining habits. ____19____ Put simply, a person who doesn’t think he can maintain new behaviors will be less likely to keep his habit, It’s also important to make a goal more attractive. Mark Vahrmeyer, a doctor who helps people deal with mental health problems, says,“If the process of building your habit involves nothing but self-sacrifice (自我牺牲) with no reward, you are unlikely to stick to your goals.” ____20____ For example, if the goal is to go to the gym three times a week, a person should pick a gym with a convenient location. A. A popular answer is 21 days. B. It’s also important to repeat a habit. C. However, not all behaviors are the same. D. Habits are the small decisions you make every day. E. He also advises making the process as easy as possible. F. And different actions require a different level of effort too. G. It’s a belief in one’s ability to complete a task or achieve a goal. 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。 My carefree daughters should have been a gift to my task-driven nature, but I was too busy to see it.

It was just the motivation I needed. I was usually a pretty good student, but with that extra push, I was determined to do well on my next math test. Every evening, I buried myself in my notes, practicing problems. My confidence grew with every completed practice test. When the big day arrived, I felt ready. I took a deep breath as I entered the classroom and tried to keep calm. But despite all the preparation, my nerves got the better of me. Halfway through the test, I blanked on a formula, and time was running out. I scribbled down the best answers I could and handed in my paper, hoping for the best. A week later, I got the test back. My heart sank as I saw the big red “A-” at the top. “No game,” I thought miserably. It wasn’t a bad grade, but it wasn’t enough. Disappointed, I stared at the grade, wishing it could magically turn into an “A+”. I could almost hear my mom’s voice, full of pride, congratulating me on my hard work. The idea gnawed (啃咬) at me until I did something I never thought I’d do. I changed the “-” into a “+”. The moment I got home, I handed the test to my mom with a forced smile. She looked at it and congratulated me, hugging me proudly. Then she turned to walk toward her bedroom. My heart raced-part excitement, part a sharp twist of guilt I couldn’t ignore. A moment later, she emerged holding a black box, the logo of the game I’d begged for glinting in the lamplight. “I picked it up yesterday, just knowing my hardworking kid would pull through,” she said, pressing the box into my hands. I forced a thank-you, my voice tight. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Later that night, I tossed and turned in bed, lost in reflection. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, I decided to tell her the truth even if it meant losing the game. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
