2025-2026学年度第二学期毕业班学情诊断练习 英语试卷 （本试卷共23道题 满分120分） 第一部分 选择题（共50分） 一、阅读理解（共20小题，每小题2分，满分40分） 第一节 阅读下面材料，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Why don’t penguins freeze? Most penguins live in and around Antarctica. This means they must survive in very cold conditions. Penguins have special ways to stay warm when the temperature drops suddenly. Penguins produce oil from a gland (腺体) near their tail. They spread this oil over their feathers. It gives the feathers a waxy (蜡质的) coating, which keeps them dry. We can do a simple experiment to show how wax helps keep water out. You’ll need: ◆Paper ◆Marker pens ◆Coloring pencils ◆Wax crayons (蜡笔) ◆Water ◆Four penguin templates (模板) Instructions: ●Color one penguin from the template with a wax crayon. Go over each area several times to make a thick layer (层). ●Leave the second penguin untreated. This will be the control (对照物). ●Color the last two penguins with marker pens and coloring pencils separately. ●Carefully drop five drops of water onto each penguin. Watch how the water behaves. 1. According to the text, thanks to their _________, penguins don’t freeze in cold conditions. A. special temperature B. thick skin C. waxy layer on feathers D. tail glands 2. In the experiment, _________ act(s) like the penguin’s oily coating. A. wax crayons B. marker pens C. paper D. coloring pencils 3. In the experiment, what is the role of the second penguin template? A. To act as a control. B. To make a thick layer. C. To go with marker pens. D. To watch how water drops. 4. In which part of a newspaper can we probably read this text? A. Story. B. Ad. C. Science. D. Art. B Lucy, an exchange student from America, is planning a trip to Beijing. She’s trying to decide between taking the high-speed train or flying, so she talks to Fiona, who has been there before. (L-Lucy, F-Fiona) L: If you had time and money to go from Shanghai to Beijing, would you take the high-speed train or fly? What are the advantages of each? F: Well, the high-speed train is pretty comfortable, and you only need to arrive at the station about thirty minutes early. That is really convenient. Seriously, you can’t imagine how modern and convenient the trains are in China! L: I see. But doesn’t it take a long time? F: Yes, a train ride usually takes longer than a flight. But the seats on a train are spacious, and you can walk around whenever you want. It feels a lot more relaxing. L: That makes sense. What about flying? F: Flying is faster, but you have to arrive much earlier for security checks (安检). Also, you can’t bring drinks through security, so you end up buying overpriced ones inside. L: Yes, that sounds terrible. F: And sometimes, the price of a train ticket isn’t much different from that of a plane ticket. So, if you want a calm and comfortable trip, you’d probably still choose the train. L: Got it. And what about getting around the city? F: In big cities like Beijing, the underground covers almost anywhere. It’s cheap, fast and friendly to the environment. L: Good point. What about buses? F: If the underground does not reach the place you want to go, buses do. And they’re cheaper. You’ll be amazed at how convenient and modern China’s public transport is. 5. According to Fiona, what are the advantages of taking the high-speed train? A. Faster and cheaper. B. Green and fast. C. Spacious and overpriced. D. Comfortable and convenient. 6. What disadvantage of flying is mentioned? A. It is often more expensive. B. Seats are not spacious. C. People must arrive very early. D. It’s not environmentally-friendly. 7. What does Fiona think of the underground in big cities like Beijing? A. Slow. B. Great. C. Crowded. D. Expensive. 8. How does Fiona show the good points of transport in China to Lucy? A. By comparing different ways of traveling. B. By saying what other people think about it. C. By telling what happens to her during a trip. D. By giving lots of numbers and facts of speed. C In my life, dance came alive through Guozhuang Dance (锅庄舞). I first saw it on TV at the age of 25, but it was not until two years later that I truly fell in love with this interesting art. It touched me so deeply that I decided to leave my career and go to National University of the Arts to study body expression. My journey challenged the idea of being “too old for this”. Going at a slow speed, I started from the feet. Step by step, I learned to move my spine (脊柱) and head as I danced. Guozhuang Dance sparked my interest in dance and research. It led me to begin playing the traditional Chinese musical instrument and taking photos, filling my days with creative activities. At the age of 35, I began teaching classes. I shared my knowledge through a workshop centered on body expression. Back then, dance was mainly about watching and copying others, but I wanted to dig deeper into the heart of the dance. My time at UNA introduced me to new experiences and people. It shaped my understanding of body expression and led me to form a meaningful connection with my teachers, Guozhuang Dance is often performed in open areas, like circling a burning fire, where everyone is welcome to join in. With this idea in mind, I started a project called“Brave Performance” when I was 47. It mixes dance, music and improvisation (即兴表演) in a modern way. Though from the past, it remains exciting today. It teaches us to feel, value our culture, pass on traditions creatively, and begin learning at any age. 9. At what age did the writer begin to love Guozhuang Dance? A. 25. B. 27. C. 35. D. 47. 10. How did the writer begin learning the dance movements? A. By moving her head first. B. By watching and copying others. C. By starting slowly from the feet. D. By joining performances in open areas. 11. What does the underlined word “sparked” mean? A. Started. B. Lost. C. Showed. D. Reduced. 12. Which is the best title for the passage? A. Starting a Dance Workshop. B. Dancing Her Way to a New Life. C. Learning Dance at a Young Age. D. Guozhuang Dance: A Traditional Art. D Dear Diary, Can you guess where I am? I’m in China’s Tiangong Space Station! I’m not alone, though. I share my tiny “apartment” with three other mice. Six Chinese astronauts take turns caring for us. Last night, we excitedly boarded the Shenzhou-21 spacecraft. The trip took just a little over three hours, and it was surprisingly smooth. As far as I know, humans are pretty much old hands here. However, for us mice, it’s a whole new world! Getting here wasn’t easy. None of us were born “space mice”. We were chosen from 300 mice after more than 60 days of hard training. I’ll never forget how challenging those tests were. Let me tell you about two of them. First, we were placed on a spinning rod (旋转杆). As it sped up, I had to hold on tight (紧紧地) with my front paws (爪) while keeping my back legs moving properly to avoid falling off. My paws were on fire, but I held on for 115 seconds and stood out from the crowd! But that was far from the end of all the spinning. The top mice from Round One were separately placed in a tiny “room” and spun (旋转) rapidly in every possible direction — first for 30 seconds, then one minute, and finally two minutes. Every time I stepped out, everything seemed to be spinning around me. But I had to walk on a balance beam (平衡木) right away. Luckily, I always made it across without falling. Not bad for a little mouse, right? Now that I’m in Tiangong, I plan to make every minute count. We’ll stay here for only about a week. After that, we’ll fly back to Earth. Scientists will then study how our bodies may have changed. This, as they say, will help them better understand the influences of the space environment on living things. 13. How many mice live in an “apartment” in Tiangong? A. 3. B. 4. C. 6. D. 300. 14. What can we know from the first two paragraphs? A. The astronauts are old hands. B. The trip is longer than the mice expected. C. The astronauts look after the mice all together. D. It’s the first time for the mice to be in Tiangong. 15. What’s the correct order of the following events? a. Be spun quickly in a tiny “room”. b. Avoid falling off a spinning rod. c. Go across the beam without falling. d. Step out and walk on a balance beam at once. A. abcd B. badc C. dbac D. cdba 16. Why does the writer write this text in the form of a mouse’s diary? A. To record the daily tasks of astronauts honestly. B. To explain the effects of space environments carefully. C. To argue that mice are better suited for space seriously. D. To describe the exploration in a lively and personal way. 第二节 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。 Did you know that dunes (沙丘) can move? Sounds like something from a movie about science. ____17____ A new study made by researchers from Nanjing University found that the dunes in western China’s deserts are moving more slowly now. ____18____ They change shape and move depending on how the wind blows. The researchers studied dunes in western China’s deserts. ____19____ Satellites (卫星) took these pictures from the sky. The team found out that the movement speed of dunes has slowed down by 30 percent. In the area with the fastest slowdown, the speed of dune movement has dropped from about 9 meters each year to 4.5 meters each year. The main reason is that the wind is not as strong, so it carries less sand, noted China Science Daily. ____20____ It means wind near the ground is slowing down worldwide. As the slower wind takes away less sand, dust storms (沙尘暴) happen less often. This helps plants grow back in dry areas. However, slower near-ground wind can also make wind power work less well. It might also make it harder for pollution to go away, said researchers from Nanjing University. A. However, this happens in real life. B. They compared pictures from 1986 to 2021. C. They wanted to understand why this change happened. D. This finding supports the idea of “worldwide wind stilling”. E. The study says dunes form in places with much sand and little water. 二、完形填空（共10小题，每小题1分；满分10分） 阅读短文，理解其大意，从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One evening, I went to the supermarket to buy some groceries (食品杂货).

In the beginning, this quilt belonged to my mother. She once joined a weekly book club with some ____32____ (woman) from the neighborhood.

For years, this quilt sat folded (折叠) and it ____34____ (place) in my mom’s living room. It went with her when she moved to a small room at an assisted living facility (辅助生活机构).

In this course, we plant fresh vegetables in the school garden and repair old books in the library. We also make lovely paper crafts in the classroom. It is tiring but truly meaningful.
