In all its 173 rooms, waste water is recycled through a hi-tech cleaning system. The hotel’s award-winning Salvia restaurant uses fruit and vegetables from its own gardens and greenhouse. During the summer there is an outdoor pool in perfect harmony with the green mountains. Other activities include hiking, horse-riding and bird-watching. Doubles from €178(breakfast included) Hotel Fljótshlíd Located in South Iceland, Hotel Fljótshlíd has 14 rooms, all of which have heated floors and private bathrooms, all powered by renewable energy. Guests can plant trees to offset(抵消) their carbon footprints, and the hotel is aiming for zero food waste. There are views of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, and guests can go horse-riding or tour the working farm. Doubles from €108(breakfast included) Montimesso SkyScape Country House It has 15 rooms, all with contemporary Portuguese furniture and balconies. Rainwater is collected and processed for daily use. Because of its dark sky location, light pollution has been reduced. The staff are mostly from the local Alentejo region. The biggest draw here is the sky — guests can use telescopes to look at distant stars and planets from its platform. Doubles from €198(breakfast included) Wren Urban Nest Opened last September, Wren Urban Nest in Dublin makes an effort to limit single-use plastics in its 137 rooms and puts emphasis on locals. Wonky(卖相不好的) vegetables are used in the kitchen and waste is reduced by using an app called Too Good To Go. It’s a four-minute walk to Trinity College and Grafton Street and a 19-minute walk to Connolly Station, the country’s busiest train station. Doubles from €129(room only) 21. Which hotel can accommodate the most guests? A. Hotel Fljótshlíd. B. Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas. C. Wren Urban Nest. D. Montimesso SkyScape Country House. 22. What can guests do while staying at Montimesso SkyScape Country House? A. Enjoy outdoor swimming. B. Plant trees to reduce CO2. C. Observe distant stars. D. Ride horses on the farm. 23. What do the four hotels have in common? A. They are all environmentally friendly. B. They are all powered by green energy. C. They all grow their own fruits and vegetables. D. They all display characteristics of local cultures. B “Just go up and jump. Don’t think. If you do, you’ll just complicate things,” shouted Nuno, a photographer travelling with me on a press trip to Switzerland. I held onto the cold metal railing (栏杆), while he egged on me to keep going. As I reached the top of the ladder leading up to the diving board suspended over a green pond and looked over at the vast nothingness sandwiched between, I did exactly what Nuno told me. The next thing I knew was that I walked to the edge, closed my eyes, held my breath and jumped. I don’t remember the fall. What I do remember is the time it took me to break into the water’s surface. It felt like a century. For me, a male adult who got by with breast strokes and couldn’t tread (踩) water without holding onto something, it felt like a barrier had been overcome. Something changed the moment I jumped off that five-meter-high diving board into the depths of Drei Weieren, a cold 17th-century pond in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland, which its residents crowded for a swim during summer and to skate in the winter. I couldn’t stop smiling as I changed out of my wet clothes in a bath house and wondered what it was that made me excited. Maybe it was the challenge of doing what I would otherwise have never tried — jumping off an edge. Maybe it was the freedom that Nuno’s words forced me to pursue. What he said holds true for so much of life, doesn’t it? Don’t we all complicate things by thinking more than we need to? Sometimes one needs to quiet the voice of self-doubt and throw oneself into something. I enjoyed being wrapped in exhilaration, so over the next week, I threw caution to the winds and tried new things with varying levels of success. 24. Why did Nuno shout to the author? A. To encourage him to dive. B. To urge him to pose for a photo. C. To remind him not to fall off the board. D. To warn him to think twice before diving. 25. How did the author feel after trying diving? A. He was ashamed of his identity. B. He was sympathetic to Nuno. C. He was grateful to local people. D. He was satisfied with himself. 26. What does the author share in paragraph 4? A. Reflections on unexpected travel plans. B. Reasons for his unsuccessful diving attempt. C. Lessons learned from his diving experience. D. Assumptions about future diving practice. 27. What does the underlined word “exhilaration” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Support. B. Excitement. C. Security. D. Praise. C A parasocial relationship （PSR）is generally defined as a relationship in which one member of the relationship isn’t aware of the other — for example, a fan loves a celebrity, but the celebrity doesn’t know they exist. The term “parasocial relationships” first appeared in the 1950s, when psychologists tried to understand how television viewers reacted to TV personalities speaking to them directly out of the screen. Later in the 70s and 80s, scholars began to assume that forming parasocial relationships was driven by loneliness. However, not-lonely people are just as likely to form a connection with that person on the screen. As fandoms（粉丝圈）became more visible throughout the latter half of the 20th century, parasocial relationships became associated with youth and immaturity. It’s true that adolescents particularly tend to develop intense parasocial relationships because it can be a chance to practice real adult feelings on someone at a safe distance. But digital interaction complicates these natural relationships. Since the rise of social media, the phenomenon of parasocial relationships has been hugely amplified（放大）. The traditional arrangement of PSRs, where the fan has no actual contact with a celebrity, is visibly changed by our new means of communication — a celebrity might see a fan’s message or even reply. When fans are gaining access to the celebrity through social media posts, it increases the feeling of closeness. People think they really have more of a relationship than they do. Online fandoms, especially large ones full of adolescents with strong emotions can generate bad behavior among adults. Behavior that might have been limited to one person or a few people might be, thanks to social media, given the chance to spread. “There’s a sort of echo chamber effect（回声室效应）where people convince themselves, ‘everyone agrees with me and therefore we are all right in our approach,’” says Gayle Stever, the author of Parasocial Experiences. Parasocial relationships are natural and not inherently （固有地）unhealthy. But as Stever says, “Anything that can be true about a regular social relationship can be true about a parasocialrel ationship.” 28. Which aspect of parasocial relationships does paragraph 2 talk about? A. Their features. B. Their development. C. Their forms. D. Their influence. 29. How has social media changed parasocial relationships? A. Most online users are adolescents. B. Fans can meet celebrities in person. C. PSRs become more common among fans. D. Fans can interact with celebrities online. 30. Why does Stever mention the echo chamber effect in her book? A. To explain how behavior spreads in online fandoms. B. To prove that fans are easily persuaded by others. C. To illustrate the reasons why fans’ actions are right. D. To stress the fact that Stever’s book is important. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards parasocial relationships? A. Approving. B. Negative. C. Unclear. D. Objective. D Environmental management work between Rogart and Lairg has successfully been finished recently by Network Rail, on top of protecting nearby nesting hen harriers (白尾鹞), a kind of bird of great European importance. The location of the work runs through the Strath Carnaig and Strath Fleet Moors SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and SPA (Special Protection Area). Both are special areas for supporting a population of breeding (繁殖) hen harriers. Work necessary for the safe operation of the railway needed to be done at the same time as the breeding season so the work could have disturbed breeding harriers. But Network Rail’s ecology team worked with the Highland Raptor Study Group to conduct surveys of the hen harriers along the line. “It was a pleasure to work with Network Rail this spring and summer carrying out surveys along the line between Rogart and Lairg,” said Brian Etheridge, from the Highland Raptor Study Group. “The priority was to look for breeding hen harriers, a threatened bird of prey (猛禽).” Once breeding harriers had been identified, Network Rail put in place unique working procedures to reduce the influence on the birds. Measures were put in place to minimize noise disturbance, through the use of battery-operated chainsaws (链锯), and time-limited working in any one area to keep noise to a minimum. Before any form of work could start, an additional survey was carried out to check on any nesting hen harriers in order to confirm whether the work was safe to continue. A camera was also fixed to monitor nesting locations during the work to check that there were no signs of disturbance. Thanks to the efforts of Network Rail, three hen harrier chicks grew healthily in their nests near the worksite. Jonathan Callis Senior Asset Engineer for Network Rail said, “We are delighted that the care, professionalism and cooperation demonstrated by everyone who contributed to this project have resulted in such a successful result for the birds.” 32. What can we learn from Paragraph 1? A. The railway work has started recently. B. Hen harriers are protected species in Europe. C. The railway plays an important role in Europe. D. Rogart and Lairg are home to hen harriers in the wild. 33. What did the Highland Raptor Study Group do for Network Rail’s project? A. They surveyed the hen harriers nesting near the worksite. B. They designed a new kind of chainsaw for Network Rail. C. They often monitored the working procedures of Network Rail. D. They developed a way to change the breeding habits of hen harriers. 34. What does the underlined word “minimize” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Create. B. Suffer. C. Reduce. D. Expand. 35. How did Network Rail’s efforts turn out? A. They were a great success. B. They were limited and dangerous. C. They caused serious noise pollution. D. They guaranteed the safety of workers. 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。 Tai Chi, or Taijiquan in Chinese, is an outstanding part of traditional Chinese culture that is valuable in promoting health, developing self-defence skills, and improving concentration and overall well-being.

My class of first-graders was feverishly anticipating their summer vacation. To add a joyful flavor, I had some balloons brought in, but for me, this holiday was bittersweet. I’d just moved to this city and couldn’t afford to fly back to accompany Dad. He was desperately missing me, for it was his first summer without me. When switching off the light on my way out, I noticed the balloons near the window. Unsure what to do with them, I grabbed the thirteen strings and stuffed them into the backseat of my car. Their rainbow of colors lifted my spirits and gratefully, I didn’t feel so alone. As the city was still foreign to me, I decided to go for a drive and soon found myself winding down a stretch of road where the trees overhead covered each other. The branches reminded me of two friends stretching out to greet each other. Before long, a retirement home appeared. It was a place with a feeling of forgottenness and I spotted a man sitting alone in the shade outside. I felt a sudden urge to pull in. But the balloons in my backseat blocked my view-then I knew what to do with them. Opening the door and grabbing one of the strings, I waved to the man, and he smiled. His name was Daniel and he was about Dad’s age. When I handed him the balloon, he grinned (咧嘴笑)，“Thanks. It gives a little color to my life.” While tying it to his chair, he looked happier than when I arrived. So I smiled, “You’re welcome, Daniel. Perhaps I’ll see you again sometime.” Unexpectedly, he replied, “Perhaps, but probably not. Visitors are always welcome, but rarely come.” His words forced me to slide over an old chair next to his. Then we began chatting about our lives and his voice always reminded me of Dad. I’d thought it would be boring talking with a stranger. But it wasn’t; it was enlightening — I had been feeling lonely, and so had Daniel, and so had the residents in the retirement home. 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。 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Can you fix a date for us to meet with nick?

This is a question that causes disagreement among many animal experts. Some, we may just call them a group, a believe that placing animals in a zoo does harm to them. These people think that all animals should be protected from being hunted too much and left in their native land. They also advise people to be educated to know more about animals in the wild. Are the experts of group b think differently? They say that modern zoo s are designed very closely to the natural environment. One of their strongest arguments is that certain species, such as the panda from china and the White tiger from india, are not only protected from uncontrolled killing, but can give babies under protection, and in that way, they may be saved from dying out. Okay, that's all from me. And you're expected to express europe ions on this question. Next class, are these is necessary or are the only bad to the animals?

In all its 173 rooms, waste water is recycled through a hi-tech cleaning system. The hotel’s award-winning Salvia restaurant uses fruit and vegetables from its own gardens and greenhouse. During the summer there is an outdoor pool in perfect harmony with the green mountains. Other activities include hiking, horse-riding and bird-watching. Doubles from €178(breakfast included) Hotel Fljótshlíd Located in South Iceland, Hotel Fljótshlíd has 14 rooms, all of which have heated floors and private bathrooms, all powered by renewable energy. Guests can plant trees to offset(抵消) their carbon footprints, and the hotel is aiming for zero food waste. There are views of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano, and guests can go horse-riding or tour the working farm. Doubles from €108(breakfast included) Montimesso SkyScape Country House It has 15 rooms, all with contemporary Portuguese furniture and balconies. Rainwater is collected and processed for daily use. Because of its dark sky location, light pollution has been reduced. The staff are mostly from the local Alentejo region. The biggest draw here is the sky — guests can use telescopes to look at distant stars and planets from its platform. Doubles from €198(breakfast included) Wren Urban Nest Opened last September, Wren Urban Nest in Dublin makes an effort to limit single-use plastics in its 137 rooms and puts emphasis on locals. Wonky(卖相不好的) vegetables are used in the kitchen and waste is reduced by using an app called Too Good To Go. It’s a four-minute walk to Trinity College and Grafton Street and a 19-minute walk to Connolly Station, the country’s busiest train station. Doubles from €129(room only) 21. Which hotel can accommodate the most guests? A. Hotel Fljótshlíd. B. Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas. C. Wren Urban Nest. D. Montimesso SkyScape Country House. 22.

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍欧洲四家特色酒店的文章，每家酒店都以其独特的环保措施和特色服务吸引游客。文章详细介绍了每家酒店的房间数量、环保措施、特色活动以及价格。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas部分中“In all its 173 rooms, waste water is recycled through a hi-tech cleaning system.(在它的173个房间里，废水通过高科技清洁系统回收利用)”，Hotel Fljótshlíd部分中“Located in South Iceland, Hotel Fljótshlíd has 14 rooms(位于冰岛南部的酒店Fljótshlíd有14间客房)”，Montimesso SkyScape Country House部分中“It has 15 rooms,(它有15间客房)”及Wren Urban Nest部分中“Opened last September, Wren Urban Nest in Dublin makes an effort to limit single-use plastics in its 137 rooms and puts emphasis on locals.(去年9月开业的都柏林Wren Urban Nest努力限制137个房间内一次性塑料的使用，并强调当地人)”可知，Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas酒店可以容纳最多的客人。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Montimesso SkyScape Country House部分中“The biggest draw here is the sky — guests can use telescopes to look at distant stars and planets from its platform.(这里最大的吸引力是天空——客人可以从它的平台上用望远镜观察遥远的星星和行星)”可知，住在Montimesso SkyScape Country House的客人可以观测遥远的星星。故选C。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Aristi Mountain Resort & Villas部分中“In all its 173 rooms, waste water is recycled through a hi-tech cleaning system.(在它的173个房间里，废水通过高科技清洁系统回收利用)”及“The hotel’s award-winning Salvia restaurant uses fruit and vegetables from its own gardens and greenhouse.(这家酒店获奖的Salvia餐厅使用的水果和蔬菜来自自己的花园和温室)”；Hotel Fljótshlíd部分中“Guests can plant trees to offset(抵消) their carbon footprints, and the hotel is aiming for zero food waste.(客人可以种树来抵消他们的碳足迹，酒店的目标是零食物浪费)”；Montimesso SkyScape Country House部分中“Rainwater is collected and processed for daily use. Because of its dark sky location, light pollution has been reduced.(收集雨水用于日常使用。由于其黑暗的天空位置，光污染已经减少)”及Wren Urban Nest部分中“Wren Urban Nest in Dublin makes an effort to limit single-use plastics in its 137 rooms and puts emphasis on locals. Wonky(卖相不好的) vegetables are used in the kitchen and waste is reduced by using an app called Too Good To Go.(都柏林Wren Urban Nest努力限制137个房间内一次性塑料的使用，并强调当地人。厨房里用的是卖相不好的蔬菜，使用一款名为Too Good To Go的应用可以减少浪费)”可知，这四家酒店的共同点是它们都是环境友好型的。故选A。 B “Just go up and jump. Don’t think. If you do, you’ll just complicate things,” shouted Nuno, a photographer travelling with me on a press trip to Switzerland. I held onto the cold metal railing (栏杆), while he egged on me to keep going. As I reached the top of the ladder leading up to the diving board suspended over a green pond and looked over at the vast nothingness sandwiched between, I did exactly what Nuno told me. The next thing I knew was that I walked to the edge, closed my eyes, held my breath and jumped. I don’t remember the fall. What I do remember is the time it took me to break into the water’s surface. It felt like a century. For me, a male adult who got by with breast strokes and couldn’t tread (踩) water without holding onto something, it felt like a barrier had been overcome. Something changed the moment I jumped off that five-meter-high diving board into the depths of Drei Weieren, a cold 17th-century pond in the city of St. Gallen in Switzerland, which its residents crowded for a swim during summer and to skate in the winter. I couldn’t stop smiling as I changed out of my wet clothes in a bath house and wondered what it was that made me excited. Maybe it was the challenge of doing what I would otherwise have never tried — jumping off an edge. Maybe it was the freedom that Nuno’s words forced me to pursue. What he said holds true for so much of life, doesn’t it? Don’t we all complicate things by thinking more than we need to? Sometimes one needs to quiet the voice of self-doubt and throw oneself into something. I enjoyed being wrapped in exhilaration, so over the next week, I threw caution to the winds and tried new things with varying levels of success. 24. Why did Nuno shout to the author? A. To encourage him to dive. B. To urge him to pose for a photo. C. To remind him not to fall off the board. D. To warn him to think twice before diving. 25. How did the author feel after trying diving? A. He was ashamed of his identity. B. He was sympathetic to Nuno. C. He was grateful to local people. D. He was satisfied with himself. 26. What does the author share in paragraph 4? A. Reflections on unexpected travel plans. B. Reasons for his unsuccessful diving attempt. C. Lessons learned from his diving experience. D. Assumptions about future diving practice. 27. What does the underlined word “exhilaration” in the last paragraph probably mean? A. Support. B. Excitement. C. Security. D. Praise. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在瑞士旅行时，在摄影师Nuno的鼓励下克服恐惧，勇敢地从五米高的跳板上跳入水中，并在此过程中获得了克服自我怀疑、勇于尝试新事物的启示。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Just go up and jump. Don’t think. If you do, you’ll just complicate things.(上去跳吧。别想太多。如果你想了，你只会把事情复杂化)”可知，Nuno是在鼓励作者跳水。故选A。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“I couldn’t stop smiling as I changed out of my wet clothes in a bath house and wondered what it was that made me excited.(当我在澡堂换下湿漉漉的衣服时，我忍不住笑了，我想知道是什么让我如此兴奋)”可知，尝试跳水后，作者对自己很满意。故选D。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Maybe it was the challenge of doing what I would otherwise have never tried — jumping off an edge. Maybe it was the freedom that Nuno’s words forced me to pursue. What he said holds true for so much of life, doesn’t it? Don’t we all complicate things by thinking more than we need to? Sometimes one needs to quiet the voice of self-doubt and throw oneself into something.(也许这是我做了一件我本不会尝试的事情——从边缘跳下去的挑战。也许是努诺的话迫使我追求的自由。他说的话在很多生活中都是正确的，不是吗? 我们是不是都想得太多，把事情搞复杂了? 有时候，你需要平息自我怀疑的声音，全身心投入到某件事中去)”可知，作者在第4段分享了从他的跳水经历中学到的教训。故选C。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“I couldn’t stop smiling as I changed out of my wet clothes in a bath house and wondered what it was that made me excited.(当我在澡堂里换下湿漉漉的衣服时，我忍不住微笑，心想究竟是什么让我如此兴奋)”及画线词后“… I threw caution to the winds and tried new things with varying levels of success.(……我抛开顾虑，尝试新事物，取得了不同程度的成功)”可知，作者应该是享受这种兴奋的感觉，所以接下来的一周，他抛开谨慎，尝试新事物，并取得了不同程度的成功，由此可知，“exhilaration”的意思应该是“兴奋”。故选B。 C A parasocial relationship （PSR）is generally defined as a relationship in which one member of the relationship isn’t aware of the other — for example, a fan loves a celebrity, but the celebrity doesn’t know they exist. The term “parasocial relationships” first appeared in the 1950s, when psychologists tried to understand how television viewers reacted to TV personalities speaking to them directly out of the screen. Later in the 70s and 80s, scholars began to assume that forming parasocial relationships was driven by loneliness. However, not-lonely people are just as likely to form a connection with that person on the screen. As fandoms（粉丝圈）became more visible throughout the latter half of the 20th century, parasocial relationships became associated with youth and immaturity. It’s true that adolescents particularly tend to develop intense parasocial relationships because it can be a chance to practice real adult feelings on someone at a safe distance. But digital interaction complicates these natural relationships. Since the rise of social media, the phenomenon of parasocial relationships has been hugely amplified（放大）. The traditional arrangement of PSRs, where the fan has no actual contact with a celebrity, is visibly changed by our new means of communication — a celebrity might see a fan’s message or even reply. When fans are gaining access to the celebrity through social media posts, it increases the feeling of closeness. People think they really have more of a relationship than they do. Online fandoms, especially large ones full of adolescents with strong emotions can generate bad behavior among adults. Behavior that might have been limited to one person or a few people might be, thanks to social media, given the chance to spread. “There’s a sort of echo chamber effect（回声室效应）where people convince themselves, ‘everyone agrees with me and therefore we are all right in our approach,’” says Gayle Stever, the author of Parasocial Experiences. Parasocial relationships are natural and not inherently （固有地）unhealthy. But as Stever says, “Anything that can be true about a regular social relationship can be true about a parasocialrel ationship.” 28. Which aspect of parasocial relationships does paragraph 2 talk about? A. Their features. B. Their development. C. Their forms. D. Their influence. 29. How has social media changed parasocial relationships? A. Most online users are adolescents. B. Fans can meet celebrities in person. C. PSRs become more common among fans. D. Fans can interact with celebrities online. 30. Why does Stever mention the echo chamber effect in her book? A. To explain how behavior spreads in online fandoms. B. To prove that fans are easily persuaded by others. C. To illustrate the reasons why fans’ actions are right. D. To stress the fact that Stever’s book is important. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards parasocial relationships? A. Approving. B. Negative. C. Unclear. D. Objective. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拟社会关系（parasocial relationships）的定义、起源、发展、影响及特点，指出拟社会关系并不固有地不健康，但也要认识到其可能带来的问题。 【28题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段第一句“The term ‘parasocial relationships’ first appeared in the 1950s, when psychologists tried to understand how television viewers reacted to TV personalities speaking to them directly out of the screen.(拟社会关系一词最早出现在20世纪50年代，当时心理学家试图了解电视观众是如何对电视人物直接从屏幕上与他们交谈做出反应的。)”可知，第二段首先讲述拟社会关系的起源，然后从文中“Later in the 70s and 80s, scholars began to assume that forming parasocial relationships was driven by loneliness. However, not-lonely people are just as likely to form a connection with that person on the screen. As fandoms（粉丝圈）became more visible throughout the latter half of the 20th century, parasocial relationships became associated with youth and immaturity.(在70年代和80年代后期，学者们开始认为形成反社会关系是由孤独驱使的。然而，不孤独的人同样有可能在屏幕上与那个人建立联系。随着粉丝圈在20世纪后半叶变得更加明显，拟社会关系与年轻和不成熟联系在一起。)”可知，接着讲述其随时间的推移而发展的情况。由此可知，第二段主要讲拟社会关系的发展。故选B项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Since the rise of social media, the phenomenon of parasocial relationships has been hugely amplified（放大）.The traditional arrangement of PSRs, where the fan has no actual contact with a celebrity, is visibly changed by our new means of communication—a celebrity might see a fan’s message or even reply.(自从社交媒体兴起以来，超社会关系现象被极大地放大了。传统的拟社会关系，即粉丝与名人没有实际接触，由于我们新的沟通方式而发生了明显的变化——名人可能会看到粉丝的信息，甚至回复。)”可知，社交媒体改变了拟社会关系，粉丝可以在线与名人互动。故选D项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“When fans are gaining access to the celebrity through social media posts, it increases the feeling of closeness. People think they really have more of a relationship than they do. Online fandoms, especially large ones full of adolescents with strong emotions can generate bad behavior among adults. Behavior that might have been limited to one person or a few people might be, thanks to social media, given the chance to spread.(当粉丝通过社交媒体帖子接触到这位名人时，会增加亲密感。人们认为他们真的有比他们更多的关系。网络粉丝，尤其是那些充满强烈情绪的青少年的大型粉丝群，会在成年人中产生不良行为。由于社交媒体，可能仅限于一个人或几个人的行为可能会有机会传播。)”可知，这部分内容提到了社交媒体使粉丝行为传播地更快，另外根据本段最后一句“‘There’s a sort of echo chamber effect where people convince themselves, ‘everyone agrees with me and therefore we are all right in our approach,’ says Gayle Stever, the author of Parasocial Experiences.(拟社会经历一书的作者盖尔·斯特弗说:“有一种回声室效应，人们说服自己，‘每个人都同意我的看法，所以我们的方法是正确的。’)”可知，斯特弗在书中提到回声室效应是为了解释在线粉丝群体中行为是如何传播的。故选A项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Parasocial relationships are natural and not inherently unhealthy. But as Stever says, ‘Anything that can be true about a regular social relationship can be true about a parasocial relationship.’(拟社会关系是自然的，并非天生不健康。但正如Stever所说，“任何关于常规社会关系的事实都可能是关于拟社会关系的。”)”可知，作者对拟社会关系持客观态度，认为其并不固有地不健康，但也要认识到其可能带来的问题。故选D项。 D Environmental management work between Rogart and Lairg has successfully been finished recently by Network Rail, on top of protecting nearby nesting hen harriers (白尾鹞), a kind of bird of great European importance. The location of the work runs through the Strath Carnaig and Strath Fleet Moors SSSI (Site of Special Scientific Interest) and SPA (Special Protection Area). Both are special areas for supporting a population of breeding (繁殖) hen harriers. Work necessary for the safe operation of the railway needed to be done at the same time as the breeding season so the work could have disturbed breeding harriers. But Network Rail’s ecology team worked with the Highland Raptor Study Group to conduct surveys of the hen harriers along the line. “It was a pleasure to work with Network Rail this spring and summer carrying out surveys along the line between Rogart and Lairg,” said Brian Etheridge, from the Highland Raptor Study Group. “The priority was to look for breeding hen harriers, a threatened bird of prey (猛禽).” Once breeding harriers had been identified, Network Rail put in place unique working procedures to reduce the influence on the birds. Measures were put in place to minimize noise disturbance, through the use of battery-operated chainsaws (链锯), and time-limited working in any one area to keep noise to a minimum. Before any form of work could start, an additional survey was carried out to check on any nesting hen harriers in order to confirm whether the work was safe to continue. A camera was also fixed to monitor nesting locations during the work to check that there were no signs of disturbance.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍英国Network Rail公司在铁路施工时，设法保护周围正处于繁殖季的白尾鹞。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Environmental management work between Rogart and Lairg has successfully been finished recently by Network Rail, on top of protecting nearby nesting hen harriers (白尾鹞), a kind of bird of great European importance. (英国国营铁路公司最近成功完成了Rogart和Lairg之间的环境管理工作，此外还保护了附近筑巢的白尾鹞，这是一种在欧洲具有重要意义的鸟类。)”和“Both are special areas for supporting a population of breeding (繁殖) hen harriers. (这两个地方都是援助繁殖期白尾鹞种群的特殊区域。)”推知，白尾鹞是欧洲受保护的物种。故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But Network Rail’s ecology team worked with the Highland Raptor Study Group to conduct surveys of the hen harriers along the line. (但是，Network Rail的生态团队与高地猛禽研究小组合作，沿着铁路线对白尾鹞进行了调查。)”和第三段中的“It was a pleasure to work with Network Rail this spring and summer carrying out surveys along the line between Rogart and Lairg(很高兴今年春天和夏天与Network Rail合作，在罗加特和莱尔格之间的线路上进行调查)”可知，Highland Raptor Study Group组织协助Network Rail公司调查施工路段附近的白尾鹞的情况。故选A项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Once breeding harriers had been identified, Network Rail put in place unique working procedures to reduce the influence on the birds. Measures were put in place to minimize noise disturbance, through the use of battery-operated chainsaws (链锯), and time-limited working in any one area to keep noise to a minimum.(一旦确定了繁殖鹞，铁路网就采取了独特的工作程序来减少对鸟类的影响。通过使用电池驱动的链锯，并在任何一个区域限时工作，采取措施将噪音干扰minimize)”可知，铁路网就采取了独特的工作程序来减少对鸟类的影响，采取措施减少噪音干扰。所以划线词的意思是“减少”。故选C项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“We are delighted that the care, professionalism and cooperation demonstrated by everyone who contributed to this project have resulted in such a successful result for the birds.(我们很高兴为这个项目做出贡献的每个人都表现出了关心、专业和合作，为这些鸟类带来了如此成功的结果。)”可知，Network Rail公司保护白尾鹞的努力取得了成功。故选A项。 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。 Tai Chi, or Taijiquan in Chinese, is an outstanding part of traditional Chinese culture that is valuable in promoting health, developing self-defence skills, and improving concentration and overall well-being.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要列举了应该尝试太极拳的五个理由。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Tai Chi is a gentle martial art that originated in China. It’s called “meditation (冥想) in motion”, because it involves slow movements with a focus on breathing and on what your body is doing in that moment.(太极拳是一种温和的武术，起源于中国。它被称为“运动冥想”，因为它涉及到缓慢的运动，专注于呼吸和你的身体在那一刻所做的事情)”可知，上文提到“专注于呼吸和你的身体在那一刻所做的事情”，说明专注于自身的想法或者节奏去运动，故B选项“你可以按自己的节奏去”符合语境，故选B。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Tai Chi is suitable for all ages and levels of fitness. It is low-impact, meaning there is little risk of damage to your joints (关节).(太极拳适合所有年龄和健康水平的人。这是一种低冲击力的运动，意味着几乎没有损伤关节的风险)”以及后文“It’s an exercise that can be easily adapted for less able people, including those in wheelchairs.(这项运动可以很容易地适应能力较弱的人，包括那些坐轮椅的人)”可知，本句旨在说明太极拳受伤可能小的特点，故F选项“肌肉放松而且受伤的可能性很小”符合语境，故选F。 【38题详解】 根据后文“Studies have found that regular Tai Chi can improve cognitive functioning in older people with dementia (痴呆) and without. Given that it’s considered safe and suitable for the elderly, this is a definite win.(研究发现，经常打太极拳可以改善老年痴呆症患者和非痴呆症患者的认知功能。考虑到它被认为是安全的，适合老年人，这是一个明确的胜利)”可知，后文主要说明了太极拳对认知功能的好处，说明好处不止是身体上的。故A选项“好处不只是身体上的”符合语境，故选A。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Classes are useful not just for teaching the movements but also for meeting like-minded people.(课程不仅对教授运动很有用，而且对结识志同道合的人也很有用)”以及后文“You’re bound to find one that matches your fitness level and exercise preferences.(你一定会找到一个符合你的健康水平和运动偏好的)”可知，上文提到了可以通过学习课程来学习太极拳，推测本句也是针对学习的途径加以说明。故D选项“但是网上也有视频”符合语境，故选D。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Practising Tai Chi can reduce one’s stress and anxiety.(练习太极可以减轻压力和焦虑)”可知，本句承接上文，说明练习太极其他方面的好处。故C选项“还可以增加自信心”符合语境，故选C。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Being the only son of his parents, Aman was pampered (娇惯).

The day established by the United Nations in 2017 honors the hardworking people who change one language into another.

So, read a book ____65____ (translate) from a different language, or watch a foreign film with subtitles (字幕). Then remember to thank the translators for making it possible! 【答案】56. is celebrated 57. to honor 58. in 59. making 60. incredibly 61. fascinating 62. who 63. their 64. wherever 65. translated 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了每年9月30日的国际翻译日，阐述了翻译人员的重要作用，并呼吁大家感念、致敬翻译工作者。 【56题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：每年9月30日庆祝国际翻译日。celebrate作谓语动词，主语“International Translation Day”为第三人称单数，与动词celebrate之间是被动关系，根据“every year on September 30”可知，本句描述一个每年都会发生的、周期性的事实，用一般现在时的被动语态，填is celebrated。 【57题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：致敬笔译与口译工作者意义重大，他们在联通世界各地的人群与文化方面发挥着重要作用。此句是固定句型“It is +形容词+to do sth”，句中it是形式主语，真正主语是后面的不定式，因此填动词不定式to honor。 【58题详解】 考查介词。句意：致敬笔译与口译工作者意义重大，他们在联通世界各地的人群与文化方面发挥着重要作用。固定搭配play an important role in ...表示“在……中起重要作用”，因此填介词in。 【59题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：他们弥合了语言之间的鸿沟，使跨越国界与障碍的交流成为可能。句子已有谓语动词bridge，make作结果状语，和逻辑主语They是主动关系，表前文动作自然而然带来的结果，因此用现在分词making。 【60题详解】 考查副词。句意：翻译人员付出极大努力，译著书籍、影视、网站，以及法律、合同等各类文本。修饰副词hard需要用副词incredibly作状语。 【61题详解】 考查形容词。句意：如果没有翻译人员，人们就无法与那些不使用相同语言的人一起分享来自其他文化与群体的精彩故事了。修饰名词stories作定语，用-ing结尾的形容词fascinating，表示“极有吸引力的；迷人的”。 【62题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：如果没有翻译人员，人们就无法与那些不使用相同语言的人一起分享来自其他文化与群体的精彩故事了。此空引导限制性定语从句，先行词those指代人，从句中缺主语，因此用关系代词who引导。 【63题详解】 考查代词。句意：这个节日让我们意识到翻译工作是多么重要，也激励着我们向翻译工作者致以敬意，感谢他们所做的贡献。此处为固定搭配do one’s part表示“尽自己的职责，贡献……的力量”，此处指代上文“翻译工作者（translators）的贡献”，用形容词性物主代词their“他们的”作定语，修饰名词parts。 【64题详解】 考查状语从句。句意：这是庆祝文字魔力以及它如何将我们连接起来的一天，无论我们来自哪里。表示“无论我们来自哪里”，用连词wherever引导让步状语从句。 【65题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：所以，去读一本由其他语言翻译过来的书，或者看一部带有字幕的外国电影吧。此空修饰名词a book作后置定语，a book与动词translate是逻辑上的被动关系，且动作已完成，用过去分词translated。 第三节 课文填空（共10小题；每小题0.5分，满分5分） 66. The simple tunes and beautiful natural images are often very suggestive of country ________ (surround). (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】surroundings 【解析】 【详解】句意：简单的曲调和美丽的自然画面往往很容易让人联想到乡村环境。作介词of宾语，填名词surroundings“环境”，名词短语country surroundings表示“乡村环境，乡村风光” 67. 1 watched a performance of Butterfly Lovers,______beautiful violin concerto composed by He Zhanhao and Chen Gang. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】a 【解析】 【详解】考查冠词。句意：我看了一场《梁祝》演出，那是何占豪和陈刚创作的一首小提琴协奏曲。分析句子可知，“beautiful violin concerto composed by He Zhanhao and Chen Gang”是a performance的同位语，可数名词concerto此处表示“一首(小提琴)协奏曲”，泛指，且空格后单词beautiful发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。 68. Beethoven, who was almost completely deaf at this point in his life, was unaware of the audience’s response ________ one of the singers turned him around to face the crowd. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】until 【解析】 【详解】句意：贝多芬当时几乎完全失聪，他没有意识到听众的反应，直到一位歌手把他转过来面对人群。表示“直到一位歌手帮他转过身面向人群他才知道观众的反应”，此空用连词until引导状语从句，表示“直到……才”。 69. By the time he was a teenager, he________ (enjoy) a reputation as a wonderful young musician. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】had enjoyed 【解析】 【详解】考查过去完成时态。句意：在他十几岁的时候，他已经享有了作为一名出色的青年音乐家的声誉。由于By the time“到……时候（为止）”引导的从句谓语动词是一般过去时，主句中的谓语动词用过去完成时（had done），表示“截止到从句动作发生时，主句动作已经完成”，即过去的过去。enjoy的过去分词为enjoyed。故填had enjoyed。 70. I take my time over every spoonful, ________ (gentle) rolling the silky desserts around my mouth and enjoying the perfect marriage of rice and milk. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】gently 【解析】 【详解】句意：每一勺食物我都细细品尝，将那丝滑的甜点在口中轻轻滚动，尽情享受着米饭与牛奶的完美结合。修饰动词rolling，用副词形式gently，作状语。 71. Over time, it _______ (expand) to include multiple options of soups, vegetables, meats and sauces, appealing to people of different tastes. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】has expanded 【解析】 【详解】考查时态和主谓一致。句意：随着时间的推移，它已经扩展到包括多种选择的汤，蔬菜，肉类和酱料，吸引不同口味的人。设空处作谓语，由Over time以及句意可知，句子时态是现在完成时，主语it是单数，因此空格处是has expanded。故填has expanded。 72. Traditionally, duck is considered ______(have) cooling properties, so it is appropriate for the hot summer months. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】to have 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：传统上，鸭子被认为具有凉性，因此它适合炎热的夏季。短语be considered to do sth.表示“被认为……”。故填to have。 73. ________ his hearing loss, he was determined to find a way to continue living a life full of music. (用适当的词填空) 【答案】Despite 【解析】 【详解】考查介词。句意：尽管听力受损，但他决心找到一种方式，继续过充满音乐的生活。由“his hearing loss, he was determined to find a way to continue living a life full of music”可知，句子表示“尽管听力受损，但他决心找到一种方式，继续过充满音乐的生活”，空格处意为“尽管”，空后是名词性短语，因此空格处是despite，位于句首，首字母大写，故填Despite。 74. For example, we often connect chicken soup with a happy childhood and its flavour becomes tied up with the feeling of ________ (take care of). (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】being taken care of 【解析】 【详解】句意：例如，我们常常将鸡汤与快乐的童年联系在一起，而其味道也与被悉心照料的感觉紧密相连。作介词of宾语，且主语we与动词take care of构成逻辑上的被动关系，此空填动名词的被动形式being taken care of。 75. In this article, we will talk about a particular type of comfort food ______ power mainly lies in the associations it calls to mind. （用适当的词填空） 【答案】whose 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：在这篇文章中，我们将讨论一种特殊的安慰食物，它的力量主要在于它能唤起人们的联想。定语从句修饰先行词comfort food，在从句作定语，应用whose。故填whose。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 76. 假定你是李华，你校寒假期间将有一批来访的英国学生，需招募志愿者帮助完成接待工作。学校委托外教布朗先生负责招募。请给布朗先生写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 申请成为志愿者； 2. 自身优势。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Brown, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Brown, I’m Li Hua, a student from Class3, Senior 2.

To add a joyful flavor, I had some balloons brought in, but for me, this holiday was bittersweet. I’d just moved to this city and couldn’t afford to fly back to accompany Dad. He was desperately missing me, for it was his first summer without me. When switching off the light on my way out, I noticed the balloons near the window. Unsure what to do with them, I grabbed the thirteen strings and stuffed them into the backseat of my car. Their rainbow of colors lifted my spirits and gratefully, I didn’t feel so alone. As the city was still foreign to me, I decided to go for a drive and soon found myself winding down a stretch of road where the trees overhead covered each other. The branches reminded me of two friends stretching out to greet each other. Before long, a retirement home appeared. It was a place with a feeling of forgottenness and I spotted a man sitting alone in the shade outside. I felt a sudden urge to pull in. But the balloons in my backseat blocked my view-then I knew what to do with them. Opening the door and grabbing one of the strings, I waved to the man, and he smiled. His name was Daniel and he was about Dad’s age. When I handed him the balloon, he grinned (咧嘴笑)，“Thanks. It gives a little color to my life.” While tying it to his chair, he looked happier than when I arrived. So I smiled, “You’re welcome, Daniel. Perhaps I’ll see you again sometime.” Unexpectedly, he replied, “Perhaps, but probably not. Visitors are always welcome, but rarely come.” His words forced me to slide over an old chair next to his. Then we began chatting about our lives and his voice always reminded me of Dad. I’d thought it would be boring talking with a stranger. But it wasn’t; it was enlightening — I had been feeling lonely, and so had Daniel, and so had the residents in the retirement home. 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。 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then I remembered the other twelve balloons in the backseat. An idea sparked. I hurried to the car and returned with the vibrant bunch. Knocking on each resident’s door, I offered a balloon and a smile. Faces lit up like children receiving candies. An elderly lady tied hers to a walker, murmuring “Just like my granddaughter’s birthday.” Soon the courtyard bloomed with floating rainbows. Laughter echoed through the once-silent corridors. As twilight painted the sky, I sat surrounded by storytellers sipping lemonade. Their wrinkled hands patted mine gratefully. For the first time since moving here, loneliness dissolved like sugar in warm tea. Over the next six months, I visited Daniel often. We planted sunflowers by his window, their golden faces tracking the sun like old friends nodding hello. He taught me chess moves from his army days, and I read him newspaper crosswords. Gradually, my students joined our visits, crafting paper cranes with nimble fingers while veterans shared wartime stories. By Christmas, the home buzzed with cookie-baking aromas and carol singers. When Dad finally visited in December, he found me surrounded by silver-haired “adopted grandparents”.
