1.Madrid, ________ capital of Spain, is ________ European country with a long history.
A.a; the B.a; a C.the; a D./; the
【答案】C
【详解】句意:马德里是西班牙的首都,是一个历史悠久的欧洲国家。
考查冠词的用法。a一个,用于修饰以辅音音素开头的词,表泛指;the这个/那个;/零冠词。根据“Madrid, …capital of Spain, is …European country with a long history.”可知,第一空为特指马德里这个独一无二的城市,应用定冠词the修饰;第二空泛指一个欧洲国家,应用不定冠词a修饰。故选C。
2.Not only Tim but also Sue and I ________ interested in travelling last term.
A.am B.are C.was D.were
【答案】D
【详解】句意:上学期不仅蒂姆,苏和我也对旅行感兴趣。
考查主谓一致和时态。根据“last term”可知,句子时态为一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式,排除选项A和B;“not only...but also...”连接两个并列的主语时,谓语动词遵循就近原则,即谓语动词要与离它最近的主语保持一致,本句中离谓语动词最近的主语是“Sue and I”,是复数,所以谓语动词用复数形式“were”。故选D。
3.—Our summer holiday is coming. What will you do to make your holiday greater?
—I’m not sure. ________, I will do something useful.
A.Moreover B.Otherwise C.Instead D.Anyway
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——我们的暑假就要到了。你打算做些什么来使你的假期更精彩?——我不确定。不管怎样,我会做一些有用的事情。
考查副词辨析。Moreover而且;Otherwise否则;Instead反而;Anyway不管怎样。根据“I’m not sure. …, I will do something useful.”可知,此处是指尽管不确定做什么,但不管怎样都会做一些有用的事情。故选D。
4.—Let’s play soccer, Jack.
—Sorry. I need one more hour before my project ________.
A.finishes B.will be finished C.will finish D.is finished
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——我们踢足球吧,杰克。——对不起。我还需要一个小时才能完成我的项目。
考查一般现在时的被动语态。根据“I need one more hour before my project ….”可知,此处为before引导的时间状语从句,主句为一般现在时,从句也用一般现在时,主语project和动词为被动关系,其结构为be+done,主语为单数,be动词用is。故选D。
5.—Has your mother come back from the countryside?
—Yes. She_______ there for two weeks to look after my grandmother.
A.stays B.stayed C.will stay D.has stayed
【答案】B
【详解】句意:——你的妈妈从乡下回来了吗? ——是的。她在那里待了2周,照顾我的外婆。
考查一般过去时。根据题干可知妈妈在乡下待了2周,其中for two weeks是现在完成时态常用的时间状语,但是本句中过去发生的动作并未持续到现在,不能用现在完成时,应该用一般过去时表示过去的动作。故选B。
6.The travel vlogger (视频博主) will ________ a new video series about Yangzhou gardens to show their beauty to more people.
A.set up B.put up C.open up D.take up
【答案】C
【详解】句意:这位旅游视频博主将开辟一个关于扬州园林的新视频系列,向更多的人展示它们的美丽。

8.—Miss Yang, must I hand in my report on table manners today?
—No, you ________. You can hand it in tomorrow as you’re not feeling well.
A.needn’t B.shouldn’t C.can’t D.mustn’t
【答案】A
【详解】句意:——杨老师,我今天必须交关于餐桌礼仪的报告吗?——不,你不必。你可以明天交,因为你不舒服。
考查情态动词。needn’t表示“不必”;shouldn’t表示“不应该”,语气较强,通常用于建议或禁止;can’t表示“不能”,指能力或可能性上的限制;mustn’t表示“禁止”,语气强烈,强调绝对不允许。根据“You can hand it in tomorrow as you’re not feeling well.”可知杨老师允许学生明天交报告,因此是对“must”的否定回答,用“needn’t”最合适。故选A。
9.It was a long journey from the hotel to the station. Luckily, we ________ the train.
A.tried to catch B.failed to catch C.managed to catch D.rushed to miss

考查动词辨析。tried to catch尽力去赶(但结果未知);failed to catch没能赶上;managed to catch成功地赶上;rushed to miss急忙去错过,语义不通。根据“Luckily”可知是成功赶上了火车。故选C。
10.Mary didn’t know who ________ the problem at that time.
A.to talk about B.will talk to about C.to talk to about D.will to talk
【答案】C
【详解】句意:玛丽当时不知道该和谁谈论这个问题。
考查疑问词+动词不定式及动词短语。talk to sb about sth“和某人谈论某事”,who作talk to的宾语,排除A、D选项。分析句子结构可知,此句为“疑问词+动词不定式”结构。故选C。
11.After a short rest, the doctor carried on ________ the next patient.
A.with operating on B.with an operation C.doing an operation D.operating on
【答案】D
【详解】句意:短暂休息后,医生继续为下一个病人做手术。
考查动词短语的用法。根据题干中的“carried on”可知,其后应接动名词形式,表示继续做某事。“operating on”符合这一语法要求,表示“继续为……做手术”,C选项缺少介词on。故选D。
12.—He ________ exercise in the park every morning when he was young.
—Yes, but now the life he was used to ________ a lot.
A.used to; changing B.was used to; has changed
C.was used to; changing D.used to; has changed
【答案】D
【详解】句意:——当他年轻的时候,每天早上都在公园锻炼。——是的,但现在他习惯的生活已经改变了很多。
考查动词短语和现在完成时。used to曾经;was used to习惯于。根据“when he was young.”可知,他年轻时,每天都在公园晨练,used to do sth表示“过去常常做某事”,第一空应用used to;由“...but now the life he was used to...a lot.”可知,现在他习惯的生活已经改变,此处为定语从句,主句时态为现在完成时,主语为the life,第三人称单数,谓语用“has+过去分词”。故选D。
13.Sherry will be our guide today because she is the only one that ________ Australia before.
A.has gone to B.has been in C.has arrived in D.has been to
【答案】D
【详解】句意:Sherry今天将是我们的向导因为她是唯一一个之前去过澳大利亚的人。
考查现在完成时用法。has gone to已经去了某地还未回来;has been in已经在某地待了一段时间;has arrived in已经到达某地;has been to曾经去过某地。根据“Sherry will be our guide today because she is the only one that...Australia before.”可知,因为她曾经去过澳大利亚,所以她是我们的向导。故选D。

A.finally B.moreover C.while D.because

【导语】本文主要讲述了张雪和他的摩托车品牌ZXMOTO在世界比赛中夺冠创造历史的故事。文章回顾了他年轻时为了展示摩托车特技而不懈努力的经历,鼓励年轻人勇敢追逐梦想。
【详解】16.句意:在2026年葡萄牙世界SSP比赛中,他的摩托车品牌ZXMOTO通过赢得两场比赛而创造了历史。
根据后文提到“It was the first time...”可知,这是中国品牌第一次取得这样的成就,属于开创性的时刻,因此history最符合语境,构成短语make history。news新闻、money金钱、mistakes错误,均不符合语境。
17.句意:这是中国品牌第一次击败像杜卡迪和雅马哈这样的世界著名品牌。
在比赛中获胜,意味着战胜了对手,因此beat符合语境。helped帮助、lost输掉、asked询问,均不符合比赛获胜的语境。
18. 句意:在重庆,38岁的张雪是如此高兴,以至于他挥舞着中国国旗时甚至哭了。
赢得世界冠军是极大的荣誉,这种激动的心情通常用“喜极而泣”来形容,因此happy符合语境。sad悲伤、tired疲惫、angry生气,均不符合获胜后的情感表达。
19.句意:他给一个电视节目打电话,因为他想展示他的摩托车技巧。
主语是He,他是为了展示属于他自己的技巧,因此his符合语境。her她的、their他们的、its它的,人称代词均不匹配。
20.句意:但是当电视工作人员到达时,他们并不感兴趣。
根据后文“They only saw a poor boy on a broken bike”可知,工作人员看到简陋的条件后态度冷淡,决定离开,说明他们对当时的张雪不感兴趣,因此interested符合语境。scared害怕、relaxed放松、worried担心,均不符合语境。
21.句意:张雪一直摔倒,表现不太好。
根据后文“could not do well”以及下文提到的“Skills come from falling”可知,他在表演时频繁摔倒,keep doing sth.表示“一直做某事/反复做某事”,kept符合语境。enjoyed享受、stopped停止、started开始,均不符合语境。
22.句意:但是张雪没有放弃。
虽然工作人员离开了,但他依然追随他们的车,说明他没有放弃展示自己,因此give up符合语境。give in屈服、give off发出、give away赠送,均不符合语境。
23.句意:他在大雨中跟随他们的车行驶了3个多小时和100公里。
表示“在雨中”,英语习惯用介词in,构成in heavy rain,符合语境。on在上面、at在……点、from来自,均不符合搭配习惯。
24.句意:他做了许多困难和危险的动作,直到他们最终改变了主意。
起初工作人员不感兴趣想离开,但被张雪感动后决定拍摄,说明他们改变了主意,因此changed符合语境。forgot忘记、broke打破、cleaned清洁,均不符合语境。
25.句意:当他们问他是否还好时,他只是说:“技巧来自跌倒。这点痛不算什么。”
面对伤痛,他轻描淡写,只说了这一句话,体现他的坚强,因此simply符合语境。carefully小心地、quickly快速地、luckily幸运地,均不如simply能体现他对此事的态度。
26.句意:带着这种精神,张雪搬到重庆去追随他的梦想。
全文讲述的是他追求赛车事业的过程,follow one’s dream是固定搭配,意为“追随梦想”,符合语境。job工作、school学校、house房子均不如dream贴切。
27.句意:他创立了ZXMOTO,因为他想制造很棒的摩托车。
前后句是因果关系,创立品牌的原因是想造好车,因此because符合语境。although虽然、if如果、so所以,均不符合逻辑关系。
28.句意:他真的热爱制造摩托车。
根据前文他想造好车以及后文的努力,说明他对这件事充满热情,因此loved符合语境。hated讨厌、finished完成、forgot忘记,均不符合语境。
29.句意:他的努力工作最终带来了今天巨大的胜利。
文章开头提到他赢得了比赛,这是努力的结果,因此victory符合语境。lesson教训、problem问题、mistake错误,均不符合语境。
30.句意:他竖起大拇指,大声喊道,带着他今天依然拥有的同样热情:“追逐你的梦想!”
引号内的内容是一句口号,且充满激情,通常是用喊出来的方式表达,因此shouts符合语境。tells告诉、laughs笑、sleeps睡觉,均不符合语境。

“Spring is coming,” he said to Mary. “I can smell it in the air. Soon there will be spring flowers. At this moment, the robin flew toward them and landed at Mary’s feet.
“He remembers me,” she said.
“He knows everything that happens here,” Ben said. “Only he knows what’s happening in the garden that has no door into it. No one else has been inside it for ten years.”
Ben walked away to continue his work. Mary bent down and began talking to the robin. She felt happier than she had ever felt.
The robin trusted her and did not fly away. It began pecking at the ground, looking for a worm to eat. Mary looked closely at the ground. She saw something that looked like metal. She picked it up. It was dirty and rusty. She cleaned it and saw that it was a key.
“It’s been in the ground for many years,” she thought. “I wonder if it is the key to the garden. If it is, then I must find the door.”
Mary skipped around the garden. The robin followed her. Mary stopped skipping and spoke to the robin.
“He showed me where to find the key,” she thought. “Can you show me where the door is?”
The robin sat on the top of the garden wall. It began to sing. The wall was covered with ivy. Mary pulled at a piece of the ivy. It came away from the wall. Behind the wall was a door.

For more than a month, the world has been very excited about a new AI model called DeepSeek-R1. The company behind it, also called DeepSeek, is a business based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang.
The new AI first appeared on Jan 20. In just one week, it beat OpenAI’s ChatGPT and became number one free application (应用) in the App Store.
What is so special about it?
According to DeepSeek, the new AI model is as good at difficult activities like math as other big-time models. But it needs much less computing power (算力) to do that. It is also the cheapest of its kind and took only about 5.57 million US dollars (40.58 million yuan) to make. That is way less than the hundreds of millions or even billions that US businesses have to spend on making similar AI models, said Marc Andreessen, a technology expert in the US.
The achievement (成就) was largely due to an idea the scientist had while they trained it. Instead of using the traditional ways, DeepSeek mainly uses Reinforcement Learning (RL,强化学习). It helps AI learn by working out the right way to do things on its own to get points. This makes R1 better at reasoning and solving hard problems.
What’s more, DeepSeek-R1 is open-source (开源的). Everyone is free to get a copy of its code (代码). They can also change the code to meet their own needs. Being open-source is very important for sharing knowledge and making technology better for everyone, said Liang Wenfeng, who set up DeepSeek.
38.What does Paragraph 2 mainly say about DeepSeek-R1?
A.It’s new. B.It’s popular. C.It’s special D.It’s free.
39.How does DeepSeek-R1 learn?
A.In a traditional way.
B.Through solving hard problems.
C.By finding the right way to do things by itself.
D.By following all kinds of orders from its creators.
40.Why is it important that DeepSeek-R1 is open-source?
A.It makes the use of AI wider. B.It provides you with new knowledge.
C.It makes AI cheaper. D.It makes AI safer.
41.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The importance of open-source code. B.The problems faced by DeepSeek-R1.
C.The introduction to DeepSeek-R1. D.The differences between AI models.
【答案】38.B 39.C 40.A 41.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新的人工智能模型DeepSeek-R1的相关信息。
38.主旨大意题。根据第二段“The new AI first appeared on Jan 20. In just one week, it beat OpenAI’s ChatGPT and became number one free application (应用) in the App Store.”可知,本段主要介绍了DeepSeek-R1在发布后一周内就击败了OpenAI的ChatGPT,成为App Store中排名第一的免费应用,这显示了它的受欢迎程度。故选B。
39.细节理解题。根据第五段“Instead of using the traditional ways, DeepSeek mainly uses Reinforcement Learning (RL,强化学习). It helps AI learn by working out the right way to do things on its own to get points.”可知,DeepSeek-R1通过强化学习,自己找出做事情的正确方法来进行学习。故选C。
40.推理判断题。根据最后一段“What’s more, DeepSeek-R1 is open-source (开源的). Everyone is free to get a copy of its code (代码). They can also change the code to meet their own needs. Being open-source is very important for sharing knowledge and making technology better for everyone”可知,DeepSeek-R1是开源的,每个人都可以自由获取其代码,并根据自己的需求进行修改,这有助于知识的共享和技术的进步,从而扩大了人工智能的使用范围。故选A。
41.主旨大意题。文章主要介绍了新的人工智能模型DeepSeek-R1,包括其发布后的受欢迎程度、与其他模型相比的特殊性、学习方式以及开源特性等,因此文章主要是对DeepSeek-R1的介绍。故选C。

In recent years, China has made great progress in science and technology. From space to the deep sea, from smart machines to clean energy, our country is now a leader in many important fields. Every Chinese can be proud of these achievements. Our scientists and engineers work hard day and night, using their knowledge to make new discoveries and create helpful inventions for people everywhere.
In space, China has its own space station, Tiangong, where Chinese astronauts live and work. They do experiments (实验) and study how to live in space. The Chang’e project has successfully brought back moon rocks, helping us learn about the moon. Tianwen-1 has landed on Mars (火星), making China one of the few countries to land space machines on the red planet. On Earth, the “China Sky Eye” is the world’s largest radio telescope (望远镜). It listens to signals (信号) from faraway stars and helps scientists understand our universe better. These amazing projects show China’s growing abilities and bright thinking.
In daily life, Chinese technology makes life better and easier. High-speed trains connect cities safely and quickly, saving people’s travel time. The BeiDou system (系统), made by China, helps millions find their way when driving, walking, or even farming. In smart machines, Chinese companies create helpful robots and smart programs that can talk with people, help with housework, or make work simpler. China also leads in clean energy, producing more solar panels (太阳电池板) and using more wind power than any other country. This helps protect our Earth and gives us cleaner air to breathe.
All these successes show China’s strong ability to make new and useful things. More young Chinese are now choosing to study science, technology, engineering, and math. This means our country’s future in technology will be even brighter. We should all work hard, study well, and stay curious to help China do more in technology.

第Ⅱ卷(非选择题 共60分)
四、词汇运用(共10小题;每小题1分,计10分)
根据句子意思,用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上,写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词)
46.We drew inspiration from sustainable development in ________ cities. (France)
【答案】French
【详解】句意:我们从法国的可持续发展中汲取灵感。根据“cities”可知,此处使用形容词French,表示“法国的”,修饰空后的名词。故填French。
47.This is the ________ design that the engineer has ever seen. (ugly)
【答案】ugliest
【详解】句意:这是工程师所见过的最丑陋的设计。根据“This is the…design that the engineer has ever seen.”以及提示词可知,这是工程师所见过的最丑陋的设计,此处应用ugly的最高级。故填ugliest。
48.With the money, we have ________ sent many children to school. (success)
【答案】successfully
【详解】句意:有了这笔钱,我们成功地送了许多孩子上学。此处修饰动词sent,应用success的副词形式successfully“成功地”。故填successfully。
49.You should choose ________ how you spend your spare time.(wise)
【答案】wisely
【详解】句意:你应该理智地选择怎样度过你的闲暇时间。
动词choose后面缺副词。wise加副词后缀ly变成wisely。故答案为wisely。
50.What great trouble they had ________ with the foreigners! (communicate)
【答案】communicating
【详解】句意:他们和外国人交流遇到了多大的麻烦啊!根据“What great trouble they had…with the foreigners! (communicate)”可知,此处为固定短语have trouble (in) doing sth“做某事遇到困难”,应用动名词形式。故填communicating。
51.A charity sale (慈善义卖) is ________ for the children in poor areas every year. (举行)
【答案】held
【详解】句意:每年都为贫穷地区的孩子举办一场慈善义卖。hold“举办”,主语为A charity sale,与动词hold存在逻辑上的被动关系,前有is,此处应用其过去分词。故填held。
52.Simon lives in a big family, so he doesn’t know all his ________ addresses. (亲戚)
【答案】relatives’
【详解】句意:西蒙生活在一个大家庭里,所以他不知道所有亲戚的地址。根据中文提示可知,relative“亲戚”符合题意,该句表达的是“他所有亲戚们的地址”,空后“addresses”是复数,因此这里用复数的名词所有格relatives’“亲戚们的”。故填relatives’。
53.We can see a few heated ________ about the Jiangsu Football City League. (讨论)
【答案】discussions
【详解】句意:我们可以看到一些关于江苏足球城市联赛的热烈讨论。讨论:discussion,为名词,结合“a few”可知,此处应用名词复数形式。故填discussions。

【答案】stomachs
【详解】句意:妈妈的厨艺不仅能满足我们的胃,也能满足我们的精神。
空格处所给中文提示为“胃”。stomach作名词,意为“胃”,空格前为形容词性物主代词our,故stomach应用复数形式,故答案为stomachs。
55.I’ll stay up all night, if ________, to get it finished. (必要的)
【答案】necessary
【详解】句意:如果有必要的话,我会熬夜把它做完。必要的:necessary,为形容词,此处是省略句,if it is necessary省略了it is,此处作为系动词is的表语,用形容词。故填necessary。
五、阅读表达(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
根据短文内容,回答下列问题。(不超过8个词)
“What should I we call you?” I asked.
“My name is Captain Nemo,” he told us. “The name of my ship is Nautilus.”
Captain Nemo showed me the library, the art gallery and the engine room.
“It’s a wonderful ship!” I exclaimed.
“I love it as if it were my child,” he replied.
“It must have cost a fortune!”
“Millions of dollars,” he replied. “However, I have billions!”
Ned Land and Conseil were as amazed at the ship as I was, but Ned was still interested in trying to find a way to escape. I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment.
A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea. When returned to the Nautilus, we were tired but amazed by what we had seen during the trip. It was an amazing experience.
When we entered the Torres Strait, the Nautilus hit a reef and stopped. We had to wait for the high tide to lift the Nautilus off the reef. We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island. We were excited. When we returned to the island the next day, we were attacked by savages. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.
One day, Captain Nemo asked me to follow him to another room and help one of his men. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” “He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo’s eyes, and he asked me to leave.
We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape.
56.What does the underlined word “fortune” mean in English?
57.What does the underlined “it” refer to?
58.Why did the savages fall back and run away when they put their hands on the rail?
59.According to the passage, how many times did “I” leave the Nautilus?
60.What do you think of Captain Nemo according to this passage?
【答案】56.A large amount of money./(A lot of ) Money./Much money./Millions of dollars. 57.To escape./(Trying) to find a way to escape. 58.(Because) Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail./Because they received an electric shock. 59.Three (times). 60.Rich, clever, and cared for his men. (Any reasonable answer is OK)
【导语】本文讲述了作者一行人和船长Nemo周游海底的故事。
56.根据“‘It must have cost a fortune!’ ‘Millions of dollars,’ he replied.”可知,此处划线部分fortune指一大笔钱。故填A large amount of money./(A lot of ) Money./Much money./Millions of dollars.
57.根据“but Ned was still interested in trying to find a way to escape. I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment.”可知,Ned一直想要逃跑,我告诉他现在不是想这个的时候,此处it指代上文提到的“trying to find a way to escape”。故填To escape./(Trying) to find a way to escape.
58.根据“When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.”可知,当他们把手放在栏杆上时他们都向后倒了然后逃跑了,因为Nemo船长给铁轨通了电,任何触碰它的人都会受到电击。故填(Because) Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail./Because they received an electric shock.
59.根据“A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea”“We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island.”及“We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks.”可知,作者一共离开Nautilus三次。故填Three (times).
60.开放性试题,答案不唯一,合理即可。参考答案为:Rich, clever, and cared for his men.
六、缺词填空(共10空;每空1分,计10分)
根据短文内容和首字母提示,在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整,完整地写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。(每空一词)
One day when I was standing on the top of a hill, I saw land in the distance (远处). “Was it the mainland or an island?” I asked myself.
Another day I c 61 a parrot and took it home with me. I called it Poll and I taught it to speak. The first word it learnt was its name. Then I taught it to say “Robinson”. It was s 62 to hear another voice after so many months. Poll was a very good company (陪伴) and almost never left my side.
During the wet months I taught m 63 to make bowls for my food. Later I learnt how to make pots for cooking.
Three years p 64 . I didn’t feel sad any more, but I often thought about escaping. Every time I went to the other side of the island, I looked at the l 65 in the distance.
“What country is it?” I asked myself.
I knew the dangers of trying to get there, but I wanted to try. I needed a boat, a big one. I looked for a big t 66 in the woods and cut it down. I worked on my boat every day for the next four months. It was beautiful when I finished it. I put a rope a 67 it and started pulling it towards the water. I pulled and pulled as h 68 as I could, but it didn’t move. It was much too heavy.
“How s 69 you are, Robinson!” I said to myself. “You didn’t think about how to get the boat into the water.”
I tried e 70 , but I couldn’t move it. In the end I had to leave it in the woods.
—Adapted from Robinson Crusoe
【答案】
61.(c)aught 62.(s)trange 63.(m)yself 64.(p)assed 65.(l)and 66.(t)ree 67.(a)round 68.(h)ard 69.(s)illy/(s)tupid 70.(e)verything
【导语】本文主要讲述了主人公在岛上抓鹦鹉、自制物品、想逃离、造船却因船太重无法移至水中的经历。
61.句意:有一天我抓住了一只鹦鹉并把它带回家。根据“took it home with me”可知是先抓住鹦鹉才能带回家,catch意为“抓住”,文章整体是一般过去时,catch的过去式是caught。故填(c)aught。
62.句意:在这么多个月之后听到另一个声音是很奇怪的。根据“hear another voice after so many months”可知长时间没听到别的声音,突然听到会感觉奇怪,strange意为“奇怪的”,符合语境。故填(s)trange。
63.句意:在潮湿的几个月里,我自学制作盛食物的碗。根据“During the wet months I taught...to make bowls for my food.”可知这里是自己教自己做东西,teach oneself意为“自学”,主语是I,所以用myself表示“我自己”。故填(m)yself。
64.句意:三年过去了。根据“Three years...”可知此处表达时间的流逝,pass意为“(时间)流逝”,文章是一般过去时,pass的过去式是passed。故填(p)assed。
65.句意:每次我去岛的另一边,我都会看着远处的陆地。根据“Was it the mainland or an island?”以及“in the distance”可知是看向远处的陆地,land意为“陆地”,符合语境。故填(l)and。
66.句意:我在树林里找了一棵大树并把它砍倒了。根据“cut it down”可知是砍树,tree意为“树”,前面有不定冠词a修饰,用单数形式。故填(t)ree。
67.句意:我在它周围系了一根绳子然后开始把它往水里拉。根据“I put a rope...it and started”可知是在其周围系绳子,put...around...意为“把……环绕在……周围”,符合语境。故填(a)round。
68.句意:我尽可能用力地拉呀拉,但它一动不动。根据“I pulled and pulled as...as I could, but it didn’t move. ”可知移动石头很困难,需要尽可能用力,as...as one can/could意为“尽可能……”,此处修饰动词pull,要用副词,hard意为“用力地”,符合语境。故填(h)ard。
69.句意:“你真傻呀,鲁滨逊!”我对自己说道。根据“You didn’t think about how to get the boat into the water.”可知没考虑周全,做了傻事,silly/stupid意为“傻的,愚蠢的”,符合语境。故填(s)illy/(s)tupid。
70.句意:我尝试了所有办法,但我还是移不动它。根据“I tried...but I couldn’t move it.”可知尝试各种方法石头还是不能被移动,everything意为“一切,所有事物”,符合语境。故填(e)verything。
七、书面表达(计30分)
A. 句子翻译(共5小题;每小题2分,计10分)
将下列句子译成英语,并将所译句子写在答题卡标有题号的横线
71.一个好的阅读习惯能帮助我们开辟一个全新的世界。
________________________________________________________
【答案】A good reading habit can help us open up a whole new world./A good reading habit can help open up a whole new world to us.
【详解】A good reading habit一个好的阅读习惯;can help能帮助;us我们,作help的宾语;open up开辟,动词短语;a whole new world一个全新的世界,作open up的宾语;或使用“open up to us”表示“向我们开辟了”。故填A good reading habit can help us open up a whole new world./A good reading habit can help open up a whole new world to us.
72.我弟弟太小,不能清楚地表达自己。
________________________________________________________
【答案】My brother is too young to express himself clearly./ My brother is so young that he can’t express himself clearly./ My brother isn’t old enough to express himself clearly.
【详解】我弟弟:my brother,主语,句首首字母大写;太……而不能……:too...to...;小:young,形容词;清楚地表达自己:express himself clearly。so...that...“如此……以至于……”和enough to do“足以做某事”可与“too...to...”结构进行同义转换。主语和形容词之间需使用be动词构成主系表结构,结合本句为主语是第三人称单数的一般现在时,be动词用is。故填My brother is too young to express himself clearly./ My brother is so young that he can’t express himself clearly./ My brother isn’t old enough to express himself clearly.
73.近来,你是否已经意识到学好英语的重要性?
________________________________________________________
【答案】Have you realized the importance of learning English well recently?
【详解】“近来”常用“recently”,是现在完成时(have/has+过去分词)的标志性时间状语。 一般疑问句结构为“Have/Has+主语+过去分词+其他”,主语“你(you)”,助动词用“have”,句首首字母大写;“意识到”是“realize”,其过去分词是“realized”;“······的重要性”是“the importance of...”;“学好英语”是“learning English well”(of 是介词,后接动名词),故完整句子为“Have you realized the importance of learning English well recently?”,用于询问对方近来是否意识到学好英语的重要性。故填Have you realized the importance of learning English well recently?
74.应当采取措施阻止人们浪费资源。
________________________________________________________
【答案】Something should/must be done to prevent/ stop/keep people from wasting resources./Action(s) should/must be taken to prevent/ stop/keep people from wasting resources.
【详解】Something should/must be done/Action(s) should/must be taken“应当采取措施”,句首首字母大写,prevent/ stop/keep people from doing sth.“阻止人们做某事”,此处表示目的,用不定式结构,waste resources“浪费资源”。故填Something should/must be done to prevent/ stop/keep people from wasting resources./Action(s) should/must be taken to prevent/ stop/keep people from wasting resources.
75.我做作业很细心,以免犯同样的错误。
________________________________________________________
【答案】I do my homework very carefully in order to avoid making the same mistake(s). /I do my homework very carefully to avoid making the same mistake(s). /I do my homework very carefully in order not to make the same mistake(s).
【详解】“我做作业很细心”可译为“I do my homework very carefully”;“以免”常用“in order to/to(表目的)”或“in order not to(直接表否定目的)”结构。“犯同样的错误”是“make the same mistake(s)”,“avoid”后接动名词“making”,故有“in order to/to avoid making the same mistake(s)”;用“in order not to”时,直接接动词原形“make the same mistake(s)”。故填 I do homework very carefully in order to avoid making the same mistake(s). /I do homework very carefully to avoid making the same mistake(s). / I do homework very carefully in order not to make the same mistake(s).

【答案】参考范文:
With the development of the society, to learn well is not the only thing we students should do. To be good middle school students, I think we have a lot of things to do.

Second, it’s our duty to understand the importance of protecting the environment. We must not drop litter carelessly. It’s wise for us to go to school on foot or by bicycle.

The more we act, the more we will improve ourselves.

When she was alone, Mary felt lonelier than ever. She went out of the house and ran around the garden ten times. Ben Weatherstaff was working in it.
“Spring is coming,” he said to Mary. “I can smell it in the air. Soon there will be spring flowers. At this moment, the robin flew toward them and landed at Mary’s feet.
“He remembers me,” she said.
“He knows everything that happens here,” Ben said. “Only he knows what’s happening in the garden that has no door into it. No one else has been inside it for ten years.”
Ben walked away to continue his work. Mary bent down and began talking to the robin. She felt happier than she had ever felt.
The robin trusted her and did not fly away. It began pecking at the ground, looking for a worm to eat. Mary looked closely at the ground. She saw something that looked like metal. She picked it up. It was dirty and rusty. She cleaned it and saw that it was a key.
“It’s been in the ground for many years,” she thought. “I wonder if it is the key to the garden. If it is, then I must find the door.”
Mary skipped around the garden. The robin followed her. Mary stopped skipping and spoke to the robin.
“He showed me where to find the key,” she thought. “Can you show me where the door is?”
The robin sat on the top of the garden wall. It began to sing. The wall was covered with ivy. Mary pulled at a piece of the ivy. It came away from the wall. Behind the wall was a door. Mary put the key in the lock of the door and turned it. The door opened. Only seconds later, Mary was inside the secret garden.
Mary thought it was the most beautiful garden she had ever seen.

For more than a month, the world has been very excited about a new AI model called DeepSeek-R1. The company behind it, also called DeepSeek, is a business based in Hangzhou, Zhejiang.
The new AI first appeared on Jan 20. In just one week, it beat OpenAI’s ChatGPT and became number one free application (应用) in the App Store.
What is so special about it?
According to DeepSeek, the new AI model is as good at difficult activities like math as other big-time models. But it needs much less computing power (算力) to do that. It is also the cheapest of its kind and took only about 5.57 million US dollars (40.58 million yuan) to make. That is way less than the hundreds of millions or even billions that US businesses have to spend on making similar AI models, said Marc Andreessen, a technology expert in the US.
The achievement (成就) was largely due to an idea the scientist had while they trained it. Instead of using the traditional ways, DeepSeek mainly uses Reinforcement Learning (RL,强化学习). It helps AI learn by working out the right way to do things on its own to get points. This makes R1 better at reasoning and solving hard problems.
What’s more, DeepSeek-R1 is open-source (开源的). Everyone is free to get a copy of its code (代码). They can also change the code to meet their own needs. Being open-source is very important for sharing knowledge and making technology better for everyone, said Liang Wenfeng, who set up DeepSeek.
38.What does Paragraph 2 mainly say about DeepSeek-R1?
A.It’s new. B.It’s popular. C.It’s special D.It’s free.
39.How does DeepSeek-R1 learn?
A.In a traditional way.
B.Through solving hard problems.
C.By finding the right way to do things by itself.
D.By following all kinds of orders from its creators.
40.Why is it important that DeepSeek-R1 is open-source?
A.It makes the use of AI wider. B.It provides you with new knowledge.
C.It makes AI cheaper. D.It makes AI safer.
41.What is the passage mainly about?
A.The importance of open-source code. B.The problems faced by DeepSeek-R1.
C.The introduction to DeepSeek-R1. D.The differences between AI models.

In recent years, China has made great progress in science and technology. From space to the deep sea, from smart machines to clean energy, our country is now a leader in many important fields. Every Chinese can be proud of these achievements. Our scientists and engineers work hard day and night, using their knowledge to make new discoveries and create helpful inventions for people everywhere.
In space, China has its own space station, Tiangong, where Chinese astronauts live and work. They do experiments (实验) and study how to live in space. The Chang’e project has successfully brought back moon rocks, helping us learn about the moon. Tianwen-1 has landed on Mars (火星), making China one of the few countries to land space machines on the red planet. On Earth, the “China Sky Eye” is the world’s largest radio telescope (望远镜). It listens to signals (信号) from faraway stars and helps scientists understand our universe better. These amazing projects show China’s growing abilities and bright thinking.
In daily life, Chinese technology makes life better and easier. High-speed trains connect cities safely and quickly, saving people’s travel time. The BeiDou system (系统), made by China, helps millions find their way when driving, walking, or even farming. In smart machines, Chinese companies create helpful robots and smart programs that can talk with people, help with housework, or make work simpler. China also leads in clean energy, producing more solar panels (太阳电池板) and using more wind power than any other country. This helps protect our Earth and gives us cleaner air to breathe.
All these successes show China’s strong ability to make new and useful things. More young Chinese are now choosing to study science, technology, engineering, and math. This means our country’s future in technology will be even brighter. We should all work hard, study well, and stay curious to help China do more in technology. Together, we can make our country stronger, smarter, and better, creating a beautiful future for everyone.

“What should I we call you?” I asked.
“My name is Captain Nemo,” he told us. “The name of my ship is Nautilus.”
Captain Nemo showed me the library, the art gallery and the engine room.
“It’s a wonderful ship!” I exclaimed.
“I love it as if it were my child,” he replied.
“It must have cost a fortune!”
“Millions of dollars,” he replied. “However, I have billions!”
Ned Land and Conseil were as amazed at the ship as I was, but Ned was still interested in trying to find a way to escape. I told him that he should stop thinking about it for the moment.
A few days later, Captain Nemo invited me and my friends to go hunting with him in the forests of Crespo Island under the sea. When returned to the Nautilus, we were tired but amazed by what we had seen during the trip. It was an amazing experience.
When we entered the Torres Strait, the Nautilus hit a reef and stopped. We had to wait for the high tide to lift the Nautilus off the reef. We three were allowed to use Captain Nemo’s dinghy to go onto the island. We were excited. When we returned to the island the next day, we were attacked by savages. About one hundred savages followed us and tried to come into the ship. Captain Nemo didn’t worry about them. When they put their hands on the rail, they all fell back and ran away. Captain Nemo had put electricity into the rail. Anybody who touched it would receive an electric shock.
One day, Captain Nemo asked me to follow him to another room and help one of his men. A man lay on a bed with a very bad head wound. I looked at it. “What happened?” Captain Nemo answered, “Something broke in the engine. A heavy piece of metal hit his head.” “He is going to die soon,” I said. “Nothing can save him.” Tears filled Captain Nemo’s eyes, and he asked me to leave.
We sailed through a sea of milk and huge armies of shell sand, sometimes large crowds of sharks. I realized that I did not really want to escape.
56.What does the underlined word “fortune” mean in English?
