Book your studio today!(这款黄金尊享单间公寓舒适雅致、格调轻奢，专为学子打造静谧宜居的生活环境。房间面积在16.1至19.4平方米之间，室内生活配套一应俱全！即刻预订吧)”可知，租金大体上随房间面积的变化而变化。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段“Venue Studios is modern student accommodation located in the center of Lewisham, London. It is close to Goldsmiths, University of London, so students can easily walk to their classes. Other universities are also within easy reach by public transport, which saves time and makes daily travel convenient.(Venue Studios是一处现代化学生宿舍，地处伦敦刘易舍姆区中心。公寓紧邻伦敦大学金史密斯学院，学生步行就能前往课堂。乘坐公共交通也可轻松抵达其他高校，不仅节省时间，日常出行也十分便捷)”可知，文章主要介绍这款现代化学生公寓的相关情况，所以写作目的就是介绍现代化学生住宿房源。 B At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance. Around that period, I was working with Jack, a 30-year-old client who intended to quit his job and explore the world. Our weekly talks acted like a mirror, pushing me to face my own fears of being laughed at, criticized by others, and abandoning the comfortable life I had been used to. According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. A strong sense of independence and a “seize the moment” attitude are inspiring older travelers to see the world in their own way. The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal. As people age, steady routines bring a sense of security, yet many people limit themselves to the comfort zone long after it stops benefiting them. Fortunately, I had my family’s full support. My husband and children all encouraged me to follow my heart. Their warmth left me wondering why I had hesitated for so many years. Research shows that facing fears helps produce dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical. As I often tell my clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.” Now prepared to board my flight, I firmly believe fortune favors the brave. It is better to live bravely than to let dreams die without trying. 4. Why did the author decide to travel solo at 60? A. She was inspired by Jack’s plan. B. She was motivated by a travel survey. C. She finally responded to her inner call. D. She attempted to abandon responsibilities. 5. What is the purpose of mentioning the travel survey? A. To show that travel appeals to all. B. To prove her choice is widely shared. C. To stress we should seize the moment. D. To indicate seniors value independence. 6. What can be known about the author from paragraph 4? A. She doubted her comfort zone. B. She silently prayed to miss the trip. C. She worried about breaking routines. D. She was torn between joy and worry. 7. What message does the author want to convey? A. Overcome fears to avoid regret. B. Appreciate support from family. C. Follow your dreams despite age. D. Prioritize security over adventure. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者在60岁时决定独自旅行，克服内心的恐惧和不安，勇敢追求梦想的故事，鼓励人们无论年龄多大都要追随自己的梦想。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance. (然而，当我60岁时，内心的呼唤变得越来越迫切，同时我也担心自己错过了最后的机会。)”可知，作者60岁时决定独自旅行是因为她最终回应了内心的呼唤。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. (根据一项旅行调查，我并不孤单。在2800多名受访者中，20%的50岁以上的人计划独自旅行，91%的人有过这样的旅行经历。)”可知，提到旅行调查的目的是为了证明作者的选择是被广泛分享的，即很多人都有独自旅行的想法或经历。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal. (当我准备预订机票时，真正的内心冲突出现了。我内心的一部分默默祈祷付款可能不会成功。然而，我意识到兴奋和恐惧的混合感觉是很正常的。)”可知，作者在预订机票时既兴奋又恐惧，内心很矛盾。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast.(60岁时，我终于决定追求一个我忽略了几十年的梦想：独自沿着澳大利亚西海岸旅行)”以及文章内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者在60岁时决定独自旅行，尽管面临内心的恐惧和不安，但在家人的支持和自己的决心下，最终决定勇敢追求梦想的故事。作者想传达的信息是，无论年龄多大，都应该追随自己的梦想。 C Deep in the Amazon jungle, an unusual experiment is underway. Brazilian and British scientists are releasing thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide from giant towers into the forest. While it sounds like an environmental crime, the $ 50 million Amazon FACE project has a vital purpose: to model future atmospheric conditions and answer critical questions about Earth’s climate. The decade-long project, running until 2036, aims to resolve a sharp divide among climate modelers. Many predict that higher CO2 levels will boost photosynthesis (光合作用), causing trees to grow faster and absorb more human emissions (排放物) — a process known as carbon fertilization. However, doubtful scientists fear that nutrient shortages in the soil, combined with rising temperatures and severe droughts, will instead cause the forest to die off, speeding up global warming. To find the truth, researchers have set up giant forest towers in six rings among the trees. Three rings send out CO2 to raise local levels to 630 parts per million, matching the projected global average for 2080, while the others act as controls. Computer systems carefully monitor wind speed and adjust the gas release to maintain consistent levels. Scientists will measure how this “time machine” affects the forest’s health. They will track photosynthesis rates, carbon storage in roots and leaves, and changes in soil water content. They also want to see how increased CO2 impacts water loss from trees, which could help individual plants survive droughts but might ultimately reduce overall rainfall in the region. Despite being proposed in 1991, the research faced years of funding struggles before finally securing support from backers. Funny enough, recent climate change impacts, such as major droughts causing low river levels, delayed the delivery of construction equipment. Now fully operational, the project promises to provide real-world data to improve climate models, revealing whether the Amazon will remain a thick carbon sink or transform into a dry savanna (稀树草原) in the coming century. 8. What is the Amazon FACE project aimed at? A. Raising critical questions. B. Figuring out human emissions. C. Changing the forest environment. D. Modeling to address climate issues. 9. What are doubtful researchers mainly worried about? A. The soil becoming too dry. B. The forest dying out. C. The nutrients disappearing fast. D. Disasters occurring more often. 10. What does the project involve in managing the carbon dioxide levels? A. Matching the global average. B. Shifting root storage. C. Making adjustments digitally. D. Monitoring the growth of trees. 11. What funny incident occurred during the project’s construction phase? A. A carbon sink was discovered. B. Money was secured from backers. C. The forest turned into a savanna. D. Extreme weather postponed delivery. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了在亚马孙雨林进行的FACE项目，旨在模拟未来高二氧化碳浓度的大气环境，以研究其对森林生态系统的实际影响，解决气候模型中的分歧。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“While it sounds like an environmental crime, the $ 50 million Amazon FACE project has a vital purpose: to model future atmospheric conditions and answer critical questions about Earth’s climate.(虽然这听起来像是破坏环境的行为，但这项耗资五千万美元的亚马逊FACE项目有着重要目的：模拟未来大气状况，并解答有关地球气候的关键问题。)”可知，该项目旨在通过模拟环境来解决气候相关问题。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, doubtful scientists fear that nutrient shortages in the soil, combined with rising temperatures and severe droughts, will instead cause the forest to die off, speeding up global warming.(然而，持怀疑态度的科学家担心，土壤养分不足，再加上气温升高和严重干旱，反而会导致这片森林逐渐消亡，进而加剧全球变暖。)”可知，心存疑虑的研究人员主要担心森林会走向消亡。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Computer systems carefully monitor wind speed and adjust the gas release to maintain consistent levels.(计算机系统会仔细监测风速，并调整气体释放量，以保持二氧化碳浓度稳定。)”可知，该项目依靠数字化设备调控二氧化碳浓度。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Funny enough, recent climate change impacts, such as major droughts causing low river levels, delayed the delivery of construction equipment.(有趣的是，受气候变化影响，严重干旱导致河流水位下降，延误了施工设备的运送工作。)”可知，极端天气推迟了设备运输，这是项目建设期间发生的趣事。 D When Anthropic announced a new artificial intelligence feature to help users perform legal tasks, it led to massive panic. Investors cut billions of dollars off tech shares, fearing a future called the “SaaSapocalypse”. Many worried that AI models would expunge the need for traditional software-as-a-service traders. Investors assumed companies would simply ask AI to carry out tasks or write custom software rather than buying expensive programs from established companies. However, experts argue this end-of-the-world view is completely overblown. History shows that new technology rarely destroys existing industries so simply. For example, the rise of desktop publishing in the 1990s led to frightening predictions about the death of commercial print shops. Instead, the technology lowered barriers to entry, actually causing the number of print shops to reach peak levels. Similarly, as AI makes writing code (代码) easier, it might not destroy software traders but rather bring about rapid growth in specialized software companies. Furthermore, economic theories regarding whether a company should “buy or build” remain relevant. For common work like accounting or human resources, businesses will likely find it much more efficient to continue purchasing from established traders. These companies possess secure systems, top designers, and strict repair plans that most other businesses cannot easily match. While employees might use AI to create small productivity tools, using it to build important systems from the ground up is considered extremely risky. Finally, the shift will likely be very gradual. History shows that companies adopt new technologies slowly to minimize potential problems. Rather than entirely replacing purchased software with in-house code, businesses will likely rely on existing traders who integrate AI capabilities directly into their current platforms. As one expert noted, asking people to use AI to code a vital payroll system is like changing tires on a moving car. Therefore, rather than eating the software industry, AI is far more likely to feed its future growth. 12. What does the underlined word “expunge” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Keep up with. B. Do away with. C. Look forward to. D. Lead up to. 13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The death of commercial printing. B. The growth in specialized software. C. Historical evidence against the panic. D. Terrible predictions about technologies. 14. Why will companies continue buying standard operations software? A. Transition is a speedy process. B. History minimizes potential problems. C. AI creates small productivity tools. D. Seasoned traders offer reliable systems. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A. Feeding the Software Industry, Not Eating It. B. Building Corporate Systems, Not Buying Them. C. The Desktop Scare: How Print Shops Would Die. D. The SaaS Panic: How AI Threatens Software Companies. 【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文针对AI技术对软件行业可能造成冲击的恐慌情绪进行了理性分析和反驳。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“Many worried that AI models would expunge the need for traditional software-as-a-service traders. Investors assumed companies would simply ask AI to carry out tasks or write custom software rather than buying expensive programs from established companies. (许多人担心人工智能模型会expunge对传统软件即服务供应商的需求。投资者假设公司会简单地要求AI执行任务或编写定制软件，而不是从成熟公司购买昂贵的程序。)”可知，人们担心AI会消除对传统软件商的需求，所以划线单词expunge意为“消除、废除”，与do away with意思相近。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。第二段首先指出“However, experts argue this end-of-the-world view is completely overblown (然而，专家认为这种末日观点完全夸大其词)”，随后以20世纪90年代桌面出版业的兴起为例，说明新技术并未摧毁商业印刷店，反而降低了准入门槛，使印刷店数量达到顶峰；又以AI使编写代码更容易为例，说明它可能不会摧毁软件供应商，反而会带来专业软件公司的快速增长。由此可知，整段通过历史证据反驳恐慌情绪。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“For common work like accounting or human resources, businesses will likely find it much more efficient to continue purchasing from established traders. These companies possess secure systems, top designers, and strict repair plans that most other businesses cannot easily match. (对于会计或人力资源等常见工作，企业可能会发现继续从老牌贸易商那里采购要高效得多。这些公司拥有安全的系统、顶级的设计师和严格的维修计划，这是大多数其他企业难以匹敌的。)”可知，公司会继续购买标准运营软件是因为经验丰富的贸易商提供可靠的系统。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕AI对软件行业的冲击展开，但核心论点是：AI不太可能摧毁软件行业，反而可能促进其未来增长。最后一段总结“Rather than eating the software industry, AI is far more likely to feed its future growth. (AI远更可能滋养软件行业的未来增长，而非吞噬它)”。所以，A项“Feeding the Software Industry, Not Eating It (滋养而非吞噬软件行业)”最能概括文章主旨。 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。 I caught sight of myself in a cafe window the other day, bent over my phone, with my head down and shoulders tense near my ears. ____16____ And I began to wonder how good it could feel to shake it off. Small, everyday habits can lead to bad posture (体态). Whether we are using our phones on the sofa or working at the kitchen table, we may bend over or sit in one place for too long without noticing it. But over time, little things can become habits. And those little habits? ____17____ Poor posture does more than cause muscle aches. It can also affect your breathing, mood, and energy levels. When we bend forward, our chest becomes less open, which limits oxygen intake and often leads to shallow breathing. ____18____ That is why good posture matters. It benefits us physically, mentally, and emotionally. It can help reduce pain, improve breathing, and enhance digestion, while also boosting energy levels and helping us sleep better. But there’s a gap between knowing posture is good and actually making it a habit. ____19____ Essentially, good posture means keeping your body in the right position whether you are standing, walking, or sitting. This means keeping your head, shoulders, and hips in line, relaxing your shoulders, engaging your core, and avoiding unnecessary tension. ____20____ Because little changes add up, experts recommend a few simple but effective ways to improve it. When sitting at your desk, keep your feet flat on the floor, support your lower back, and relax your shoulders. When using your phone, bring the screen up to eye level instead of bending your neck down. A. So what does good posture actually look like? B. Posture is a habit that affects almost everything you do. C. Why do people usually need to maintain good posture? D. It is often caused by the way we sit, stand, and use our phones. E. Over time, this can make you feel tired, anxious or emotionally low. F. That’s when I realized how easily bad posture slips into our daily life. G. They can have a lasting impact on our bodies in ways we might not realize. 【答案】16. F 17. G 18. E 19. A 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了不良体态不仅会造成身体不适，还会影响呼吸、情绪与精力，说明了良好体态的多重益处，解释了标准体态的要求，并给出简单可行的日常改善方法。 【16题详解】 根据前文“I caught sight of myself in a cafe window the other day, bent over my phone, with my head down and shoulders tense near my ears.(前几天，我在咖啡馆的窗户里看到自己低头盯着手机、肩膀紧绷,几乎贴到耳朵附近的样子。)” 以及后文“And I began to wonder how good it could feel to shake it off.(我开始想，摆脱这种状态会有多舒服。)” 可知，作者看到自己的姿态，意识到不良体态已悄悄渗入生活，并想摆脱。选项F“That’s when I realized how easily bad posture slips into our daily life.(就在那时，我意识到不良体态很容易不知不觉进入我们的日常生活。)” 贴合上下文语境。 【17题详解】 根据前文“But over time, little things can become habits. And those little habits?(但久而久之，小事就会变成习惯。而那些小习惯呢？)” 以及后文“Poor posture does more than cause muscle aches.(不良体态带来的影响不止肌肉酸痛。)”可知，此处承接提问，讲述小习惯对身体的长久负面影响。选项G“They can have a lasting impact on our bodies in ways we might not realize.(它们会以我们察觉不到的方式，对身体产生持久的影响。)” 衔接自然。 【18题详解】 根据前文“When we bend forward, our chest becomes less open, which limits oxygen intake and often leads to shallow breathing.(当我们弯腰驼背时，胸腔无法完全舒展，会限制摄氧量，造成浅呼吸。)” 可知，空前讲述不良体态对呼吸的影响，空处继续延伸其带来的身心副作用。选项E“Over time, this can make you feel tired, anxious or emotionally low.(久而久之，这会让人疲惫、焦虑或是情绪低落。)” 承接前文负面影响，逻辑连贯。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Essentially, good posture means keeping your body in the right position whether you are standing, walking, or sitting.(本质上，良好体态就是无论站立、行走还是坐姿，都保持身体处于正确位置。)” 可知，后文在具体解释良好体态的标准，空处应提出相关问题以引出下文解释。选项A“So what does good posture actually look like?(那么，良好的体态究竟是什么样子的？)” 起到引出下文的作用。 【20题详解】 根据后文“Because little changes add up, experts recommend a few simple but effective ways to improve it.(因为微小的改变日积月累就能见效，专家推荐了一些简单有效的改善方法。)” 可知，本段围绕体态改善展开，空处总领段落，衔接体态与日常行为，引出改进措施。选项B“Posture is a habit that affects almost everything you do.(体态是一种习惯，几乎影响你所做的一切。)” 契合段落开头总起的作用。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Becoming an influencer by talking about plants may sound unusual, but Kyle Lybarger has done just that.

A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了凯尔·莱巴格通过社交媒体分享本土植物的美丽，从一个曾经误毁生态的初学者成长为保护濒危植物的倡导者，并最终意识到提高公众意识是他最大的贡献。 【21题详解】 考查动词。句意：莱巴格穿着破旧夹克和结实靴子，看起来像一个典型的户外从业者。A. remains保持；B. sounds听起来；C. responds回应；D. dresses穿着。根据前文“Often in a worn jacket and strong boots”可知，这里描述的是他的穿着打扮，应用动词dresses，dresses like表示“穿得像”。 【22题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，他通过向人们展示当地植物的美丽，在网上赢得了许多粉丝。A. cultures文化；B. animals动物；C. plants植物；D. attractions景点。根据文章主题以及文章第一句中的“talking about plants”和后文“protecting rare and endangered plants”可知，他展示的是本土植物的美丽。 【23题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：与此同时，他承担了保护阿拉巴马州北部珍稀濒危植物的角色。A. carried out实施；B. taken on承担；C. brought about带来；D. turned down拒绝。根据后文“the role of protecting rare and endangered plants”可知，他承担了保护植物的角色，所填动词短语应能与空后的宾语role构成搭配，take on the role of…意为“担任某种角色，起到某种作用”。 【24题详解】 考查副词。句意：在一个大部分土地都是私人所有的州，他的工作通常意味着拜访土地所有者并帮助他们照顾植物。A. secretly秘密地；B. openly公开地；C. carefully小心地；D. privately私人地。根据后文“visiting landowners”可知，这个州土地是私人所有的。 【25题详解】 考查介词短语。句意：他是一名经过培训的专业林业工作者，靠社交媒体的收入支撑，无偿提供相关帮助。A. for free免费；B. at once立刻；C. in time及时；D. by chance偶然。根据后文“supported by his social media ____”可知，他通过社交媒体获得收入，因此他对土地所有者提供的帮助应是免费的。 【26题详解】 考查名词。句意：他是一名经过培训的专业林业工作者，靠社交媒体的收入支撑，无偿提供相关帮助。A. feeds喂养；B. updates更新；C. interaction互动；D. income收入。根据前文“he offers this help ____”可知，他免费给土地所有者提供帮助，以及由后文“He now has hundreds of thousands of followers.”可知，他拥有数十万粉丝，由此可推断，应是社交媒体给他带来了收入。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：他的旅程始于一个错误。A. wonder奇迹；B. mistake错误；C. project项目；D. initiative倡议。根据后文“Years ago, he tried to attract more wild animals by clearing native plants and planting ____ crops in a certain area. However, the seeds failed. (多年前，他曾在一片区域清理本土植被、栽种新作物，试图吸引更多野生动物，可这些作物最终没能发芽生长。)”可知，他曾清除本地植物、种植新作物但失败可知，这是一个错误。 【28题详解】 考查形容词。句意：多年前，他曾在一片区域清理本土植被、栽种新作物，试图吸引更多野生动物。A. new新的；B. beautiful美丽的；C. fruitful丰收的；D. regular常规的。根据前文“clearing native plants”可知，他清除本土植物，种上应是新的、非本地的作物。 【29题详解】 考查副词。句意：然而，在未经处理的边缘地带，当更多阳光照射到时，本地植物反而长得茂盛。A. Moreover而且；B. Instead相反；C. Otherwise否则；D.

Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t make sense of it. Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Her parents decided to step in. “We need to find you some help.” her mother gently suggested one evening. Then came Mr. Jenkins, a retired local teacher known for his unique teaching style. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change. Their first session was tense. Mr. Jenkins, sensing her frustration, didn’t dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible (有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. However, progress was slow. Weeks passed with minimal improvement, and Emily’s patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears, convinced she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said. “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas, Masterpieces aren’t created overnight.” Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, and Mr. Jenkins celebrated every progress she made, no matter how minor it was. (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. She started to approach math problems with newfound enthusiasm. Instead of dreading them, she would actively seek solutions, applying the techniques Mr. Jenkins had taught her. She no longer saw math as an insurmountable obstacle but as an exciting challenge. In class, she began to volunteer answers, much to the surprise of her teachers and classmates. Her after-school study sessions became a time of exploration rather than frustration. She would spend hours practicing, often losing track of time as she delved deeper into the world of numbers.        Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. She had worked so hard, and the thought of seeing if it had paid off filled her with both excitement and anxiety. As she opened the envelope containing her math test results, her eyes widened. A broad smile spread across her face. She had passed with flying colors! She couldn't wait to tell Mr. Jenkins. His unwavering belief in her and his unique teaching methods had finally borne fruit. This achievement was not just a victory in math but a testament to her own perseverance and the power of a great teacher. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了 Emily 在数学学习上困难重重，10 年级时压力增大，父母找来 Mr. Jenkins 辅导她。Mr. Jenkins 用独特方式教学，虽进展缓慢，但 Emily 在他鼓励下坚持学习。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在詹金斯先生的帮助下，埃米莉的信心逐渐增强。”可知，第一段可描述 Emily 在信心增长后对待数学的积极态度转变，如主动解题、课堂积极表现；讲述她课后积极练习的状态。 ②由第二段首句内容“成绩公布那天到来时，埃米莉的心怦怦直跳。”可知，第二段可描写 Emily 等待成绩时的紧张心情；看到通过考试且成绩优异的惊喜反应；表达对 Mr. Jenkins 的感激以及此次经历的感悟。 2.续写线索：信心增长——态度积极转变——课后积极练习——成绩公布紧张——看到好成绩惊喜——感激老师及感悟。 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①寻求：seek /look for ②探索：explore /probe ③告诉：tell/inform 情感类： ①热情：enthusiasm /passion ②兴奋：excitement /thrill 【点睛】【高分句型1】Instead of dreading them, she would actively seek solutions, applying the techniques Mr. Jenkins had taught her.（运用了现在分词作伴随状语和省略that或者which引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】She had worked so hard, and the thought of seeing if it had paid off filled her with both excitement and anxiety. （运用了if引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 新蔡一高2025—2026学年下学期6月月考 高二英语试题 第Ⅰ卷（选择题） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

B At 60, I finally decided to pursue a dream that I had ignored for decades: traveling solo along Australia’s western coast. For years, my longing for adventure had been drowned out by family, work and responsibilities. Yet as I turned 60, the inner call grew increasingly urgent, accompanied by fears that I had missed my last chance. Around that period, I was working with Jack, a 30-year-old client who intended to quit his job and explore the world. Our weekly talks acted like a mirror, pushing me to face my own fears of being laughed at, criticized by others, and abandoning the comfortable life I had been used to. According to a travel survey, I am far from alone. Among more than 2,800 respondents, 20% of people over 50 plan to travel alone, and 91% have experienced such trips. A strong sense of independence and a “seize the moment” attitude are inspiring older travelers to see the world in their own way. The real inner conflict appeared when I was about to book my flight. Part of me silently prayed that the payment might not go through. However, I realized that the mixed feelings of excitement and terror are quite normal. As people age, steady routines bring a sense of security, yet many people limit themselves to the comfort zone long after it stops benefiting them. Fortunately, I had my family’s full support. My husband and children all encouraged me to follow my heart. Their warmth left me wondering why I had hesitated for so many years. Research shows that facing fears helps produce dopamine, the brain’s “feel-good” chemical. As I often tell my clients, “Nothing grows in the comfort zone except regret.” Now prepared to board my flight, I firmly believe fortune favors the brave. It is better to live bravely than to let dreams die without trying. 4. Why did the author decide to travel solo at 60? A. She was inspired by Jack’s plan. B. She was motivated by a travel survey. C. She finally responded to her inner call. D. She attempted to abandon responsibilities. 5. What is the purpose of mentioning the travel survey? A. To show that travel appeals to all. B. To prove her choice is widely shared. C. To stress we should seize the moment. D. To indicate seniors value independence. 6. What can be known about the author from paragraph 4? A. She doubted her comfort zone. B. She silently prayed to miss the trip. C. She worried about breaking routines. D. She was torn between joy and worry. 7. What message does the author want to convey? A. Overcome fears to avoid regret. B. Appreciate support from family. C. Follow your dreams despite age. D. Prioritize security over adventure. C Deep in the Amazon jungle, an unusual experiment is underway. Brazilian and British scientists are releasing thousands of tonnes of carbon dioxide from giant towers into the forest. While it sounds like an environmental crime, the $ 50 million Amazon FACE project has a vital purpose: to model future atmospheric conditions and answer critical questions about Earth’s climate. The decade-long project, running until 2036, aims to resolve a sharp divide among climate modelers. Many predict that higher CO2 levels will boost photosynthesis (光合作用), causing trees to grow faster and absorb more human emissions (排放物) — a process known as carbon fertilization. However, doubtful scientists fear that nutrient shortages in the soil, combined with rising temperatures and severe droughts, will instead cause the forest to die off, speeding up global warming. To find the truth, researchers have set up giant forest towers in six rings among the trees. Three rings send out CO2 to raise local levels to 630 parts per million, matching the projected global average for 2080, while the others act as controls. Computer systems carefully monitor wind speed and adjust the gas release to maintain consistent levels. Scientists will measure how this “time machine” affects the forest’s health. They will track photosynthesis rates, carbon storage in roots and leaves, and changes in soil water content. They also want to see how increased CO2 impacts water loss from trees, which could help individual plants survive droughts but might ultimately reduce overall rainfall in the region. Despite being proposed in 1991, the research faced years of funding struggles before finally securing support from backers. Funny enough, recent climate change impacts, such as major droughts causing low river levels, delayed the delivery of construction equipment. Now fully operational, the project promises to provide real-world data to improve climate models, revealing whether the Amazon will remain a thick carbon sink or transform into a dry savanna (稀树草原) in the coming century. 8. What is the Amazon FACE project aimed at? A. Raising critical questions. B. Figuring out human emissions. C. Changing the forest environment. D. Modeling to address climate issues. 9. What are doubtful researchers mainly worried about? A. The soil becoming too dry. B. The forest dying out. C. The nutrients disappearing fast. D. Disasters occurring more often. 10. What does the project involve in managing the carbon dioxide levels? A. Matching the global average. B. Shifting root storage. C. Making adjustments digitally. D. Monitoring the growth of trees. 11. What funny incident occurred during the project’s construction phase? A. A carbon sink was discovered. B. Money was secured from backers. C. The forest turned into a savanna. D. Extreme weather postponed delivery. D When Anthropic announced a new artificial intelligence feature to help users perform legal tasks, it led to massive panic. Investors cut billions of dollars off tech shares, fearing a future called the “SaaSapocalypse”. Many worried that AI models would expunge the need for traditional software-as-a-service traders. Investors assumed companies would simply ask AI to carry out tasks or write custom software rather than buying expensive programs from established companies. However, experts argue this end-of-the-world view is completely overblown. History shows that new technology rarely destroys existing industries so simply. For example, the rise of desktop publishing in the 1990s led to frightening predictions about the death of commercial print shops. Instead, the technology lowered barriers to entry, actually causing the number of print shops to reach peak levels. Similarly, as AI makes writing code (代码) easier, it might not destroy software traders but rather bring about rapid growth in specialized software companies. Furthermore, economic theories regarding whether a company should “buy or build” remain relevant. For common work like accounting or human resources, businesses will likely find it much more efficient to continue purchasing from established traders. These companies possess secure systems, top designers, and strict repair plans that most other businesses cannot easily match. While employees might use AI to create small productivity tools, using it to build important systems from the ground up is considered extremely risky. Finally, the shift will likely be very gradual. History shows that companies adopt new technologies slowly to minimize potential problems. Rather than entirely replacing purchased software with in-house code, businesses will likely rely on existing traders who integrate AI capabilities directly into their current platforms. As one expert noted, asking people to use AI to code a vital payroll system is like changing tires on a moving car. Therefore, rather than eating the software industry, AI is far more likely to feed its future growth. 12. What does the underlined word “expunge” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Keep up with. B. Do away with. C. Look forward to. D. Lead up to. 13. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The death of commercial printing. B. The growth in specialized software. C. Historical evidence against the panic. D. Terrible predictions about technologies. 14. Why will companies continue buying standard operations software? A. Transition is a speedy process. B. History minimizes potential problems. C. AI creates small productivity tools. D. Seasoned traders offer reliable systems. 15. What can be the best title for the text? A.

Small, everyday habits can lead to bad posture (体态). Whether we are using our phones on the sofa or working at the kitchen table, we may bend over or sit in one place for too long without noticing it. But over time, little things can become habits. And those little habits? ____17____ Poor posture does more than cause muscle aches. It can also affect your breathing, mood, and energy levels. When we bend forward, our chest becomes less open, which limits oxygen intake and often leads to shallow breathing. ____18____ That is why good posture matters. It benefits us physically, mentally, and emotionally. It can help reduce pain, improve breathing, and enhance digestion, while also boosting energy levels and helping us sleep better. But there’s a gap between knowing posture is good and actually making it a habit. ____19____ Essentially, good posture means keeping your body in the right position whether you are standing, walking, or sitting. This means keeping your head, shoulders, and hips in line, relaxing your shoulders, engaging your core, and avoiding unnecessary tension. ____20____ Because little changes add up, experts recommend a few simple but effective ways to improve it. When sitting at your desk, keep your feet flat on the floor, support your lower back, and relax your shoulders. When using your phone, bring the screen up to eye level instead of bending your neck down. A. So what does good posture actually look like? B. Posture is a habit that affects almost everything you do. C. Why do people usually need to maintain good posture? D. It is often caused by the way we sit, stand, and use our phones. E. Over time, this can make you feel tired, anxious or emotionally low. F. That’s when I realized how easily bad posture slips into our daily life. G. They can have a lasting impact on our bodies in ways we might not realize. 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题） 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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Becoming an influencer by talking about plants may sound unusual, but Kyle Lybarger has done just that.

Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t make sense of it. Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Her parents decided to step in. “We need to find you some help.” her mother gently suggested one evening. Then came Mr. Jenkins, a retired local teacher known for his unique teaching style. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change. Their first session was tense. Mr. Jenkins, sensing her frustration, didn’t dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible (有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. However, progress was slow. Weeks passed with minimal improvement, and Emily’s patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears, convinced she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said. “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas, Masterpieces aren’t created overnight.” Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, and Mr. Jenkins celebrated every progress she made, no matter how minor it was. (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
