A 【解析】 【原文】 W: Welcome to People Who Inspire Us. Today, I’d like to share the story of Mrs. Simpson, a kind woman who has gone out of her way to support people with disabilities. Mrs. Simpson is 55 years old now. She started her volunteer career when she was 35. One weekend, she headed to a farmers’ market to pick up some fresh produce. On a street corner, she came across a disabled man selling fresh tomatoes. Beside him sat his two-year-old son, quietly watching the world go by. The scene hit her hard. It was a real eye-opener and made her realize that many people were struggling to make ends meet. From then on, she made up her mind to lend a helping hand. Later, she formed a small group in her community. At first, just five people joined. Over time, word about her voluntary work steadily spread, and more people willingly joined her cause. Ten years ago, Mrs. Simpson even poured all her savings into setting up a company to offer job opportunities to the disabled. Many people with disabilities have found jobs there and regained their confidence. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分 50 分） 第一节（共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A In 2026, the British Library will explore the enchanting world of literature.

(本次展览面向2至9岁儿童及其家庭，设置老少皆宜的趣味互动活动，探寻故事讲述在各类文化与社会群体中的意义。)”以及Fairy Tales部分中“Fairy Tales will explore the timeless world of fairy tales through interactive activities, digging into the key elements that have made traditional stories so popular, including magical creatures, mysterious woods, splendid palaces, and the classic ‘happily ever after’ ending. (本次童话展将通过各类互动活动探索永恒的童话世界，深入挖掘传统故事广受欢迎的核心要素，包括奇幻生物、神秘森林、华丽宫殿以及经典的 “从此幸福终老” 结局。)”可知，两个展览的共同点是都有互动活动。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Agatha Christie部分中“Visitors will be able to gain insight into her writing process, through notebooks, personal letters, manuscripts, and listen to her own recordings. (游客将能够通过笔记本、私人信件、手稿以及聆听她自己的录音来深入了解她的写作过程。)”可知，游客可以在阿加莎·克里斯蒂展览中了解她的写作过程。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段“In 2026, the British Library will explore the enchanting world of literature. Below are details of the events, each offering a unique journey into storytelling for different ages and interests.(2026年，大英图书馆将为大众探寻精彩纷呈的文学世界。以下是系列活动详情，每场活动都将带领不同年龄段、拥有不同兴趣的人群，开启独一无二的文学叙事之旅。)”可知，文章详细介绍了三个展览的名称、日期、地点和具体内容，这种提供活动信息的文本，通常来自活动指南。 B When a player on the other team makes a terrible mistake on a big play, most sports fans feel joy. But not every sports fan. During an NFL playoff game one Sunday, the Baltimore Ravens were trailing the Buffalo Bills 27-25. With a minute and a half left, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson threw the ball to tight end Mark Andrews at the goal line. A successful catch would tie the game. Andrews caught it and then dropped it. He seemed to slip on the snowy field. The Ravens lost. Their season was over. While some Bills fans celebrated, others felt pity for Mark Andrews. He has type 1 diabetes (糖尿病), a condition that requires him to prick his finger 30 times a game to check his blood sugar. Two lifelong Bills fans, Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard, decided to start a charitable drive to raise money for Breakthrough T1D, a diabetes research charity that Andrews supports. “We just want to spread love; that’s really what we want to do.” said Patota. “Honestly, you hate the other team. You want your team to win. But we want to say, ‘Hey, this is more than a game.’” Their effort raised over $146,000 — far beyond their original goal of $5,000. Initially, donations were mostly from Bills fans, but as word spread, fans of the Ravens and other NFL teams joined in. “I’m absolutely gutted by what happened on Sunday — for my teammates, my coaches and Ravens fans,” Andrews said on social media a few days after the game. “But despite the negativity, I’ve seen heartfelt love and encouragement, including from those who have generously donated to Breakthrough T1D.” Patota says he remains a loyal Bills fan. “But going forward,” he adds, “we’re definitely going to have a soft spot for the Ravens.” 24. What happened to Mark Andrews during the playoff game? A. He got injured on the field. B. He threw a game-losing pass. C. He suffered a diabetes attack. D. He dropped a game-tying catch. 25. Why did Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard start a charitable drive? A. To win more fans for the Bills. B. To gain money by funding research. C. To collect donations for the Ravens. D. To spread love by supporting Andrews. 26. The underlined word “gutted” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________. A. cheerful B. heartbroken C. shocked D. touched 27. What message does the text convey? A. Love takes no sides. B. Games bring the best out of fans. C. Kindness costs nothing. D. Friendship outshines competition. 【答案】24. D 25. D 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述对手球迷为季后赛失误的球员发起糖尿病慈善募捐，传递温情。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A successful catch would tie the game. Andrews caught it and then dropped it.(如果成功接球，就能扳平比分。Andrews接住了球，但又掉了。)”可知，Mark Andrews在比赛中掉了一个本可以扳平比分的接球。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Two lifelong Bills fans, Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard, decided to start a charitable drive to raise money for Breakthrough T1D, a diabetes research charity that Andrews supports.(两位终身比尔队球迷，瑞安·帕托塔和尼古拉斯·霍华德，决定发起一场慈善募捐活动，为安德鲁斯支持的糖尿病研究慈善机构Breakthrough T1D筹款。)”以及第四段中“We just want to spread love; that’s really what we want to do.(我们只是想传播爱；这真的是我们想做的。)”可知，他们发起慈善活动的目的是通过支持Andrews来传播爱。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“I’m absolutely gutted by what happened on Sunday — for my teammates, my coaches and Ravens fans.（我对周日发生的事情感到非常gutted——为了我的队友、教练和乌鸦队的球迷。)”以及下文“despite the negativity(尽管有负面情绪)”可知，Andrews对自己失误导致球队输掉比赛感到非常伤心难过。gutted此处意思是“痛心的，伤心的”，与heartbroken含义最为接近。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第四段中““We just want to spread love; that’s really what we want to do.” said Patota. “Honestly, you hate the other team. You want your team to win. But we want to say, ‘Hey, this is more than a game.’”(“我们只是想传播爱；这真的是我们想做的。”Patota说。“说实话，你讨厌对手球队。你希望自己的球队赢。但我们想说，‘嘿，这不仅仅是一场比赛。’”)”可知，文章讲述了对手球队的球迷没有因对方球员的失误而幸灾乐祸，反而为他发起慈善捐款，传递爱与善意。这体现了“爱不分阵营”的主题。 C The men who broke into Joseph Haydn’s tomb hoped that his talent would be written on his skull (头 骨). But an examination of this Austrian composer’s brain may have been more informative. Musical talent does not, as once believed, leave marks on the skull. It does, however, seem to benefit the brain. Making music is a mental workout. The brain must manage sound and vision, as well as fine movement control, focus and imagination at the same time. Several studies have found that, in some regions, professional musicians have more grey matter — the neural tissue involved in thinking, movement and memory — than non-musicians. Though not yet proven, existing research indicates several benefits. Studies suggest musicians may have better thinking skills, such as planning and problem-solving, sharper memory, and even lower pain sensitivity. Those taking up music lessons before seven gain an advantage in brain development, which promotes their foreign language learning and thinking ability. As for the elderly, long-term musical learning lessens the loss of verbal working memory and grey matter volume. The instrument you play could make a difference. A study of 1,100 older Britons in 2024 found that pianists and brass players tended, on average, to have better working memory. Woodwind players had better planning and problem-solving skills. Singers are good at language reasoning. Show-offs who played several instruments enjoyed no extra brain benefit. In addition, the brain’s pleasure and reward centers light up when you play an instrument. Performing in a band, orchestra or choir eases stress and encourages social bonding. Simply listening may also be worth a try. In 2025 an observational study of 10,000 healthy over-70s found that regular listeners to music had a 39% lower risk of loss of thinking ability. The good news is that you don’t have to be a musical genius (天才) to feel the benefits of regular practice. Studies have found that constant training leads to brain reorganisation in non-professionals as well as professionals. But if you are a second Haydn, consider hiring a guard at your tombstone. 28. Why is Joseph Haydn mentioned in the beginning? A. To honor a famous musical genius. B. To introduce the topic of musical talent. C. To lead into the music-brain relationship. D. To identify marks of talent on the skull. 29. How does the author mainly illustrate the benefits of music? A. By listing data. B. By giving examples. C. By referring to studies. D. By making comparison. 30. What can we learn about playing instruments? A. Playing woodwind could improve problem-solving skills. B. Performing in a band can sharpen language reasoning skills. C. Playing several instruments would bring more brain benefits. D. Learning an instrument would prevent old people from ageing. 31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Musical geniuses need guards for their tombs. B. Regular music practice reshapes players’ brains. C. Music professionals should train on a regular basis. D. Musical geniuses benefit most from regular training. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍演奏、聆听音乐对大脑有多方面益处，不同乐器、不同学习年龄、不同人群会产生不一样的大脑提升效果，普通人坚持练习音乐同样能改变大脑结构。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The men who broke into Joseph Haydn’s tomb hoped that his talent would be written on his skull. But an examination of this Austrian composer’s brain may have been more informative.(曾有人闯入约瑟夫・海顿的墓穴，指望能在他的头骨上找到天赋留下的印记。可若是研究这位奥地利作曲家的大脑，或许能得到更有价值的发现。)”及“Musical talent does not, as once believed, leave marks on the skull. It does, however, seem to benefit the brain.(人们曾经认为音乐天赋会在头骨上留下痕迹，但事实并非如此。然而，音乐似乎对大脑有益。)” 可知，文章开篇借海顿坟墓的故事引出音乐与大脑之间关系这一核心话题。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Several studies have found that, in some regions, professional musicians have more grey matter — the neural tissue involved in thinking, movement and memory — than non-musicians.(几项研究发现，在某些区域，专业音乐家比非音乐家拥有更多的灰质——与思考、运动和记忆有关的神经组织。)”、第三段“Though not yet proven, existing research indicates several benefits.(尽管尚未得到证实，但现有研究表明音乐有多种益处。)”、第四段“A study of 1,100 older Britons in 2024 found that pianists and brass players tended, on average, to have better working memory.(2024年一项针对1100名英国老年人的研究发现，钢琴手和铜管乐器演奏者通常拥有更好的工作记忆。)”、第五段“In 2025 an observational study of 10,000 healthy over-70s found that regular listeners to music had a 39% lower risk of loss of thinking ability.(2025年一项针对一万名70岁以上健康老人的观察研究发现，经常听音乐的人认知能力衰退风险降低39%。)”可知，作者主要依靠引用各类研究来阐述音乐带来的好处。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Woodwind players had better planning and problem-solving skills.(木管乐器演奏者拥有更强的规划和解决问题的能力。)”可知，演奏木管乐器能够提升解决问题的能力。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Studies have found that constant training leads to brain reorganisation in non-professionals as well as professionals.(研究发现，持续练习，无论是业余爱好者还是专业音乐人，大脑都会发生重组。)”可知，规律的音乐练习会重塑练习者的大脑。 D For nearly 40 years, Uranus (天王星) and its five largest moons have been regarded as nothing more than frozen and lifeless. This long-held view originated in 1986, when the spacecraft Voyager 2 had the misfortune of flying past Uranus just as a solar storm hit, creating a misleading impression of its true nature. Far from what was previously assumed, a new analysis suggests that these worlds could hold hidden oceans, and perhaps even the conditions necessary for life. This news has pushed forward NASA’s $4 billion plan to return to Uranus with a mission launch by 2032, aiming to arrive there by 2050. The space exploration often feels like stepping into science fiction. As NASA scientist Geoffrey A. Landis imagined in his 1999 short story Into the Blue Abyss, humanity’s drive to seek life in unexpected places shows the tension between hope and uncertainty. The story mirrors our real-world missions to the extent that both reflect the wonder and the challenges of searching for life beyond Earth. While reality may lack the drama of fiction, studying Uranus holds significant value for understanding similar faraway worlds. In the past 30 years, over 5,500 exoplanets — planets outside our solar system — have been discovered. Some are described as “Earth-like”, but none meet the exact conditions of a rocky planet in a star’s habitable zone, where water remains liquid instead of boiling away or freezing. By studying Uranus up close, we may unlock clues about whether these distant worlds could truly support life. There are uncertainties and challenges in space missions. But consider the importance: if Uranus or its moons contain hidden seas, they would join a growing list of “ocean worlds” in the solar system. Are we alone, or are the building blocks of life more common than we ever thought? Exploring the Uranian system brings humanity one step closer to answering this deepest question. 32. How is the topic introduced in paragraph 1? A. By stating the true nature of Uranus. B. By describing an unfortunate space mission. C. By challenging a long-held misunderstanding. D. By presenting a common phenomenon in space. 33. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning Landis’story? A. The uncertainty about life beyond Earth. B. The drive of humanity to seek life in space. C. The mix of wonder and risk in space exploration. D. The reflection of real-world missions in science fiction. 34. What’s the value of studying Uranus according to the text? A. Discovering habitable exoplanets. B. Preparing for NASA’s future missions. C. Understanding the wonder of life. D. Answering questions about the solar system. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Search for Life Beyond Earth B. Why Uranus Is Worth a Second Look C. The Challenges of Exploring Uranus D. Why Missions to Ocean Worlds Matter 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了对天王星及其卫星的新发现，以及NASA计划重返天王星的科学意义。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的描述“For nearly 40 years, Uranus (天王星) and its five largest moons have been regarded as nothing more than frozen and lifeless. This long-held view originated in 1986, when the spacecraft Voyager 2 had the misfortune of flying past Uranus just as a solar storm hit, creating a misleading impression of its true nature. Far from what was previously assumed, a new analysis suggests that these worlds could hold hidden oceans, and perhaps even the conditions necessary for life.(近40年来，天王星和它的五个最大的卫星一直被认为是冰冻的、没有生命的。这种长期持有的观点起源于1986年，当时旅行者2号宇宙飞船不幸飞过天王星，正好赶上太阳风暴袭击，造成了对天王星真实性质的误导印象。与之前的假设不同，一项新的分析表明，这些世界可能存在隐藏的海洋，甚至可能存在生命所必需的条件。)”可知，作者先提出过去长期存在的误解，再用新研究推翻它，是通过挑战一个长期存在的错误认知来引入话题的。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的句子“As NASA scientist Geoffrey A. Landis imagined in his 1999 short story Into the Blue Abyss, humanity’s drive to seek life in unexpected places shows the tension between hope and uncertainty. The story mirrors our real-world missions to the extent that both reflect the wonder and the challenges of searching for life beyond Earth. (正如NASA科学家Geoffrey A. Landis在1999年短篇小说《进入蓝色深渊》中想象的那样，人类在意外之处寻找生命的驱动力展现了希望与不确定性之间的张力。这个故事反映了我们的现实世界任务，两者都反映了在地球之外寻找生命的惊奇和挑战。)”可知，作者提及Landis的故事是为了说明太空探索中惊奇与风险的混合。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Some are described as “Earth-like”, but none meet the exact conditions of a rocky planet in a star’s habitable zone, where water remains liquid instead of boiling away or freezing. By studying Uranus up close, we may unlock clues about whether these distant worlds could truly support life.(有些被描述为“类地行星”，但没有一个符合恒星宜居带的岩石行星的确切条件，即水保持液态，而不是沸腾或冻结。通过近距离研究天王星，我们可能解开关于这些遥远世界是否真正能支持生命的线索。)”可知，研究天王星的价值在于帮助发现宜居的系外行星。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。全文围绕天王星展开，从挑战其长期被视为冰冻无生命的误解，到新的分析表明其可能拥有隐藏海洋和生命条件，再到NASA计划重返天王星，以及研究天王星对理解遥远世界和寻找地外生命的价值。B项“Why Uranus Is Worth a Second Look (为什么天王星值得再看一眼)”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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Aim for the moon and even if you miss, you will land among the stars.” This saying is meant to inspire people to pursue perfection because even if we fail, we will still be in a better place than where we started. Yet some people now prefer to take the easier path and achieve the bare minimum (最低限度). ____36____ I lean towards embracing mediocrity (接受平庸) over pursuing perfection. First, embracing mediocrity allows people to take things slow and make gradual progress. For example, teachers don’t expect students to become experts at a particular concept immediately; they focus on accepting mediocrity first. ____37____ ____38____ Research has shown that perfectionists tend to suffer from depression and social anxiety because they keep finding fault with themselves. For those who embrace mediocrity, they don’t have to constantly compare themselves, which prevents the health problems that come along with doing so. Furthermore, embracing mediocrity frees up time and energy for meaningful activities. According to Malcolm Caldwell, it takes at least 10,000 hours to achieve expertise in a given skill. ____39____ Because less time is spent doing so and one can enjoy other areas of life, like going on a trip with friends instead of spending an unreasonably long time perfecting a skill. Therefore, embracing mediocrity is not about giving up, but about setting realistic goals and finding satisfaction. ____40____ Let us stop pursuing the unachievable and focus instead on goals we can realistically achieve. A. Aiming high is not always the wisest choice. B. However, this is unnecessary if one embraces mediocrity. C. Embracing mediocrity can also lead to better mental health. D. Then how to keep a balance between mediocrity and perfection? E. Besides, the pursuit of perfection often comes at the cost of health. F. Coupled with sufficient practice, the students will eventually master the basics. G. This begs the question: should we “aim for the moon” or aim for what is achievable? 【答案】36. G 37. F 38. C 39. B 40. A 【解析】 【导语】文章先引出“志存高远追求完美”与“只求最低限度、接受平庸” 两种不同人生态度，随后从稳步进步、心理健康、节省精力三个层面论证接纳平庸的好处，最后倡导人们设立切实可行的目标，放弃不切实际的完美追求。 【36题详解】 根据前文“Yet some people now prefer to take the easier path and achieve the bare minimum.(然而现在有些人更愿意选择轻松的道路，只做到最低限度即可。)”可知前文提出两种截然不同的人生选择；空后一句“I lean towards embracing mediocrity over pursuing perfection.(相比追求完美，我更倾向于接纳平庸。)”直接表明作者立场；故推知：空处需要提出一个衔接两种选择的设问，起到承上启下引出作者观点的作用；选项G“This begs the question: should we “aim for the moon” or aim for what is achievable?(这就引出一个问题：我们应当“志存高远”，还是追求力所能及的目标？)”契合上下文逻辑。 【37题详解】 根据前文“For example, teachers don’t expect students to become experts at a particular concept immediately; they focus on accepting mediocrity first.(举例来说，老师不会要求学生立刻精通某个知识点，而是先引导他们接纳暂时的平庸。)”可知此处以学生学习为例论证接纳平庸能稳步进步；故推知：空处应承接教师的教学方式，说明学生循序渐进最终掌握知识的结果；选项F“Coupled with sufficient practice, the students will eventually master the basics.(辅以足量练习，学生最终就能掌握基础知识。)”延续该举例的逻辑。 【38题详解】 根据后文“Research has shown that perfectionists tend to suffer from depression and social anxiety because they keep finding fault with themselves.(研究表明完美主义者容易患上抑郁症、社交焦虑，因为他们总在苛责自己。)”可知本段围绕心理健康展开论述；此处为段落总起句，需总领全段话题；选项C“Embracing mediocrity can also lead to better mental health.(接纳平庸也能带来更好的心理健康。)”总起本段内容。 【39题详解】 根据前文“According to Malcolm Caldwell, it takes at least 10,000 hours to achieve expertise in a given skill.(马尔科姆・考德威尔认为，精通一项技能至少需要一万小时的投入。)” 可知追求完美需要耗费大量时间；空后一句“Because less time is spent doing so and one can enjoy other areas of life, like going on a trip with friends instead of spending an unreasonably long time perfecting a skill.(因为无需投入大量时间打磨技艺，人们就能享受生活其他方面，比如和朋友出游，而非耗费过长时间苛求技能尽善尽美。)”说明接纳平庸可以节省时间；故推知：空处形成转折，说明接纳平庸就不必投入上万小时打磨技能；选项B“However, this is unnecessary if one embraces mediocrity.(但如果选择接纳平庸，这份大量投入就没有必要了。)” 衔接前后逻辑。 【40题详解】 根据前文“Therefore, embracing mediocrity is not about giving up, but about setting realistic goals and finding satisfaction.(因此接纳平庸并非轻言放弃，而是设立现实目标、从中获得满足感。)”可知前文总结接纳平庸的内涵；空后一句“Let us stop pursuing the unachievable and focus instead on goals we can realistically achieve.(让我们停止追逐无法实现的事物，转而专注力所能及的目标。)”发出呼吁；故推知：空处过渡句需点明一味高标准追求并非明智之举；选项A“Aiming high is not always the wisest choice.(一味志存高远并不总是最明智的选择。)”承接总结句，引出文末呼吁。 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。 Growing up beside a national forest, I never had to look far to see nature in its glory.

Strangely奇怪地；B. Surprisingly令人惊讶地；C. Obviously明显地；D. Particularly特别地。根据前文“Then one morning, a tap came on the window.”及“She flew back and forth, tapping fiercely.”可知，鸟猛烈地敲窗，来回飞，这种行为异常，很明显是有事情发生。 【48题详解】 考查名词。句意：令我们惊恐的是，一条蛇正沿着树干滑向鸟巢。A. sadness悲伤；B. horror恐惧，惊恐；C. regret遗憾；D. despair绝望。根据本句中的“a snake slid up the trunk toward the nest”可知，看到蛇要攻击鸟巢中的幼鸟，人的第一反应应是“惊恐”，且后文“Mom quickly grabbed a stick and ____ the snake with one swing (挥动).”母亲迅速拿棍子打蛇，也印证了情况危急令人害怕。 【49题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：妈妈迅速抓起一根棍子，一挥手把蛇打落。A. pushed over推倒；B. took away拿走；C. picked up捡起；D. knocked down击倒，打落。根据后文“It slid away.”可知，蛇溜走了，应是先被母亲用棍子将蛇击落树干，才能逃走。 【50题详解】 考查动词。句意：鸟飞回巢中，与幼鸟一起安顿下来。A. settled安顿，安定；B. slowed放慢；C. laid放置，产卵；D. dropped落下。根据前文“It slid away.”及本句中的“The bird flew back to her nest”可知，蛇逃走了，危险解除，鸟回到巢里，应是安顿下来安抚幼鸟，settled down为固定搭配，意为“平静下来，安顿下来”。 【51题详解】 考查形容词。句意：好一会儿，我们静静地坐着，对我们所经历的事情感到惊叹。A. puzzled困惑的；B. excited兴奋的；C. amazed惊奇的，惊叹的；D. disappointed失望的。根据前文“Then one morning, a tap came on the window.”及“She flew back and forth, tapping fiercely.”可知，作者和母亲目睹了一只鸟主动向人类求助，并且她们成功帮助了它，这一经历应是令人感到惊奇。 【52题详解】 考查名词。句意：“不然它怎么会知道去哪里寻求帮助呢？”我回答道。A. comfort安慰；B. advice建议；C. company陪伴；D. help帮助。根据前文“Then one morning, a tap came on the window.”及“She flew back and forth, tapping fiercely.”可知，鸟敲窗引她们出去，这是它们遇到了危险，在向人类寻求帮助。 【53题详解】 考查形容词和代词。句意：那天早上让我明白，我们与生物之间的联系是双向的。A. many许多；B. both两者都；C. some一些；D. other其他的。根据后文“We had been her guardians, and perhaps she had also been ____ us — reminding us that love ____ all boundaries (边界).”可知，人类保护了鸟，鸟也以某种方式指引了人类，说明这种联系是双向的。 【54题详解】 考查动词。句意：我们曾是她的守护者，也许她也一直在指引着我们——提醒我们爱能跨越所有边界。A. following跟随；B. watching观看；C. protecting保护；D. guiding指引。根据破折号后的“reminding us that love crosses all boundaries”可知，鸟这次主动求助的行为实际上向人类传递了一个关于爱的道理，起到了指引人类的作用。 【55题详解】 考查动词。句意：我们曾是她的守护者，也许她也一直在指引着我们——提醒我们爱能跨越所有边界。A. crosses跨越；B. marks标记；C. moves移动；D. forms形成。文章主题是人与动物之间的情感联系，无论物种差异都能建立信任，因此“爱跨越所有边界”是最贴合主旨的表达。 非选择题部分 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 The Shangsi Festival, an age-old Chinese celebration, falls on the third day of the third lunar month. With ____56____ history of over 2,000 years, it combines water purification (净化), poetic gatherings, and nature ____57____ (appreciate). The festival ____58____ (date) back to the Zhou Dynasty, when ancient Chinese believed river washing could clean body and soul. This practice, ____59____ (know) as fuxi, developed into a public celebration by the Han Dynasty. One legend relates Shangsi to Nüwa, the goddess, who shaped animals before creating humans on the third day, ____60____ (make) it “Human Day”. The most graceful Shangsi custom was “floating wine cups”. Guests seated along streams would get a cup and either compose a poem ____61____ drink more if inspiration failed. This tradition reached its height at the Lanting Gathering, ____62____ calligrapher Wang Xizhi penned the legendary Preface to the Poems Composed at the Orchid Pavilion. Though the festival faded after the Song Dynasty, it still thrives (繁荣) ____63____ (remarkable) among ethnic groups like the Zhuang and Li. In recent years, cities have revived Shangsi activities ____64____ (reconnect) modern Chinese with their cultural roots. Shangsi is more than a relic; it shows China’s harmony ____65____ nature. It invites us to wash away the old and celebrate life’s flow — one cup of wine, one flower, and one verse at a time. 【答案】56. a 57. appreciation 58. dates 59. known 60. making 61. or 62. where 63. remarkably 64. to reconnect 65. with 【解析】 【导语】文章以中国传统上巳节为介绍对象，用客观严谨的语言梳理节日的起源、习俗、历史演变及现代传承。 【56题详解】 考查冠词。句意：上巳节是一个古老的中国节日，在农历三月初三。它有超过2000年的历史，结合了水净化、诗意聚会和自然欣赏。根据空格后的单数名词history可知，这里泛指“一段超过2000年的历史”，history以辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词a。 【57题详解】 考查名词。句意：上巳节是一个古老的中国节日，在农历三月初三。它有超过2000年的历史，结合了水净化、诗意聚会和自然欣赏。空格处作动词combines的宾语，应该用名词形式，appreciate的名词形式是appreciation，表示“欣赏”。 【58题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：这个节日可以追溯到周朝，当时古代中国人相信河流洗涤可以清洁身体和灵魂。date back to意为“追溯到”，用来描述客观情况，通常用一般现在时，主语the festival是第三人称单数，所以用dates。 【59题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这种被称为祓禊的做法，到汉代发展成为一种公共庆祝活动。空格处应该用非谓语动词作定语，修饰名词this practice，this practice和动词know之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词known作后置定语。 【60题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：一个传说将上巳节与女娲女神联系起来，她在第三天创造人类之前塑造了动物，使这一天成为“人类日”。空格处应该用非谓语动词作状语，动词make与上文的内容之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词making作结果状语，表示女娲创世这一事件自然产生的结果。 【61题详解】 考查连词。句意：客人坐在溪流旁，会得到一个杯子，要么作诗，要么如果没有灵感就多喝酒。either...or...是固定搭配，意为“要么……要么……”，所以用连词or。 【62题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：这个传统在兰亭集会上达到了顶峰，书法家王羲之在那里写下了传奇的《兰亭集序》。空格处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词是the Lanting Gathering，关系词在从句中作地点状语（在兰亭集会上写序），所以用关系副词where。 【63题详解】 考查副词。句意：虽然这个节日在宋朝之后逐渐衰落，但它在壮族和黎族等少数民族中仍然显著地繁荣。这里修饰动词thrives，需要用副词形式；remarkable的副词是remarkably，表示“显著地”。 【64题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：近年来，城市恢复了上巳节活动，以使现代中国人重新连接他们的文化根源。此处作目的状语，表示城市恢复上巳节活动的目的，应该用不定式形式to reconnect。 【65题详解】 考查介词。句意：上巳节不仅仅是一个遗迹；它展示了中国与自然的和谐。harmony with nature是固定搭配，意为“与自然和谐相处”，所以用介词with。 第四部分 写作（共三节，满分40分） 第一节 （共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 根据下列句子及所给的首字母，在答题纸上按题号写出各单词的正确形式（每空限填一词） 66.

At first glance, these items seem harmless. However, I hold a different view. A desk is meant for learning, not decoration. These small objects constantly steal your attention, making it harder to focus in class. Worse still, they can easily distract classmates sitting nearby. Personally, a tidy desk shows a clear and organized mind. Therefore, we should keep unnecessary items out of sight so that we can focus better on our lessons. After all, school is a place to learn, not to show off personal taste. Possible version 2 A Look at What Your Desk Says It is common to find small personal objects on students’ desks — a family photo, a tiny plant, or a stress toy. This adds a bit of character to an otherwise plain classroom. From my perspective, a middle ground works best. On one hand, one or two meaningful items can make us feel comfortable and even lighten our mood during breaks. On the other hand, when some personal items pile up and distract us from lessons, they become a problem. A tidy desk with a touch of personality is fine, but learning should always come first. So, keep it balanced — let your desk speak for you, not against you. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生给校英文报投稿，描述课桌上摆放各类小物件的校园现象，并发表自己对此事的看法。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 各种各样的：various → a variety of 无害的：harmless → innocent 观点：view → opinion/perspective 专注：focus → concentrate 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：Personally, a tidy desk shows a clear and organized mind. 拓展句：As far as I’m concerned, a neat desk is a reflection of an organized mindset. 【点睛】【高分句型 1】These small objects constantly steal your attention, making it harder to focus in class. (运用了现在分词making作状语) 【高分句型 2】Therefore, we should keep unnecessary items out of sight so that we can focus better on our lessons. (运用了so that引导目的状语从句) 第三节（满分15分） 77. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Wesley Thomson was a new postman who simply couldn’t get an address right. Letters for Oak Avenue landed at Oak Court, parcels (包裹) for flat seven arrived at flat three. Every day found him breathlessly rushing down the street in his red Royal Mail jacket, leaving confused residents behind him. Each mistake landed on his shoulders like a small, heavy stone. Strangely, his mistakes began to bring the once quiet, disconnected neighbourhood together. A young couple expecting their first baby received an elderly pair’s pension (养老金) notice. When they returned it, the old couple invited them in for tea and biscuits. A retired old lady found a rain-soaked parcel of baby clothes meant for her pregnant neighbour. She dried them, added a hand-knitted sweater, and a friendship started. “That postman is a walking disaster,” residents laughed heartily, “but a rather lovely one.” Not everyone was pleased, though. Someone made a formal complaint about the frequent misdeliveries. Soon, a Royal Mail manager arrived to check Wesley’s performance. The neighbours gathered in the community center, worried for the man who had accidentally become the heart of their community. They spoke in his favour but Wesley knew that kindness alone wouldn’t save his job. That night, he sat alone in his tiny flat, a new map spread across the table. Oak Avenue, Oak Court, Oak Crescent — the names became blurry (模糊的) before his tired eyes. He had tried memorising them like a schoolboy. Nothing worked. He buried his face in his tired, shaky hands, a wave of helplessness washing over him. The silent map, the ticking clock, the weight of the day — all of them seemed to be waiting for him to fail. He needed a solution, something simple, something the whole street could help with. As he looked out the window at the lights of the neighbourhood, an idea began to form. 注意： 1.续写词数应为100个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Wesley took the new map and started walking from door to door. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version The next morning, Wesley took the new map and started walking from door to door. His red jacket flapping behind him, he knocked shyly. “I keep getting your addresses wrong,” he confessed, unfolding the confusing map. “So what if we name our homes not with numbers, but with little signs only we know?” He proposed painting small icons: a yellow teapot for the old couple, a red rose for the young couple, a knitting needle for the retired lady. The neighbours exchanged glances, then nodded, smiling. That weekend witnessed the street coming alive with brushes and laughter. The manager returned, amazed to find Wesley delivering every parcel right. Wesley, once laughed at as “a walking disaster”, finally became the very thread that held the neighbourhood together. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述新手邮递员Wesley总送错信件包裹，却意外让邻里互相走动、拉近了邻里关系；有人投诉后邮政经理要来核查，Wesley夜里看着分不清的街道地图心生无助，望着街区灯光想到一个解决办法的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写：由续写开头句内容可知，本段可描写Wesley向居民坦白自己总认错地址的难题，提出用特色小标识代替门牌号的点子，居民欣然同意，大家一起制作标识，最后经理复查时他再也没有送错过快递。 2. 续写线索：登门坦白困难 —— 提出标识方案 —— 居民合力制作标识 —— 准确投递 —— 获得经理认可 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①坦白：confess/acknowledge ②提议：propose/put forward 情绪类 ①害羞地：shyly/timidly ②惊奇的：amazed/surprised 【点睛】[高分句型 1] “I keep getting your addresses wrong,” he confessed, unfolding the confusing map. (运用现在分词unfolding作伴随状语) [高分句型 2] Wesley, once laughed at as “a walking disaster”, finally became the very thread that held the neighbourhood together.

B When a player on the other team makes a terrible mistake on a big play, most sports fans feel joy. But not every sports fan. During an NFL playoff game one Sunday, the Baltimore Ravens were trailing the Buffalo Bills 27-25. With a minute and a half left, Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson threw the ball to tight end Mark Andrews at the goal line. A successful catch would tie the game. Andrews caught it and then dropped it. He seemed to slip on the snowy field. The Ravens lost. Their season was over. While some Bills fans celebrated, others felt pity for Mark Andrews. He has type 1 diabetes (糖尿病), a condition that requires him to prick his finger 30 times a game to check his blood sugar. Two lifelong Bills fans, Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard, decided to start a charitable drive to raise money for Breakthrough T1D, a diabetes research charity that Andrews supports. “We just want to spread love; that’s really what we want to do.” said Patota. “Honestly, you hate the other team. You want your team to win. But we want to say, ‘Hey, this is more than a game.’” Their effort raised over $146,000 — far beyond their original goal of $5,000. Initially, donations were mostly from Bills fans, but as word spread, fans of the Ravens and other NFL teams joined in. “I’m absolutely gutted by what happened on Sunday — for my teammates, my coaches and Ravens fans,” Andrews said on social media a few days after the game. “But despite the negativity, I’ve seen heartfelt love and encouragement, including from those who have generously donated to Breakthrough T1D.” Patota says he remains a loyal Bills fan. “But going forward,” he adds, “we’re definitely going to have a soft spot for the Ravens.” 24. What happened to Mark Andrews during the playoff game? A. He got injured on the field. B. He threw a game-losing pass. C. He suffered a diabetes attack. D. He dropped a game-tying catch. 25. Why did Ryan Patota and Nicholas Howard start a charitable drive? A. To win more fans for the Bills. B. To gain money by funding research. C. To collect donations for the Ravens. D. To spread love by supporting Andrews. 26. The underlined word “gutted” in paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ________. A. cheerful B. heartbroken C. shocked D. touched 27. What message does the text convey? A. Love takes no sides. B. Games bring the best out of fans. C. Kindness costs nothing. D. Friendship outshines competition. C The men who broke into Joseph Haydn’s tomb hoped that his talent would be written on his skull (头 骨). But an examination of this Austrian composer’s brain may have been more informative. Musical talent does not, as once believed, leave marks on the skull. It does, however, seem to benefit the brain. Making music is a mental workout. The brain must manage sound and vision, as well as fine movement control, focus and imagination at the same time. Several studies have found that, in some regions, professional musicians have more grey matter — the neural tissue involved in thinking, movement and memory — than non-musicians. Though not yet proven, existing research indicates several benefits. Studies suggest musicians may have better thinking skills, such as planning and problem-solving, sharper memory, and even lower pain sensitivity. Those taking up music lessons before seven gain an advantage in brain development, which promotes their foreign language learning and thinking ability. As for the elderly, long-term musical learning lessens the loss of verbal working memory and grey matter volume. The instrument you play could make a difference. A study of 1,100 older Britons in 2024 found that pianists and brass players tended, on average, to have better working memory. Woodwind players had better planning and problem-solving skills. Singers are good at language reasoning. Show-offs who played several instruments enjoyed no extra brain benefit. In addition, the brain’s pleasure and reward centers light up when you play an instrument. Performing in a band, orchestra or choir eases stress and encourages social bonding. Simply listening may also be worth a try. In 2025 an observational study of 10,000 healthy over-70s found that regular listeners to music had a 39% lower risk of loss of thinking ability. The good news is that you don’t have to be a musical genius (天才) to feel the benefits of regular practice. Studies have found that constant training leads to brain reorganisation in non-professionals as well as professionals. But if you are a second Haydn, consider hiring a guard at your tombstone. 28. Why is Joseph Haydn mentioned in the beginning? A. To honor a famous musical genius. B. To introduce the topic of musical talent. C. To lead into the music-brain relationship. D. To identify marks of talent on the skull. 29. How does the author mainly illustrate the benefits of music? A. By listing data. B. By giving examples. C. By referring to studies. D. By making comparison. 30. What can we learn about playing instruments? A. Playing woodwind could improve problem-solving skills. B. Performing in a band can sharpen language reasoning skills. C. Playing several instruments would bring more brain benefits. D. Learning an instrument would prevent old people from ageing. 31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Musical geniuses need guards for their tombs. B. Regular music practice reshapes players’ brains. C. Music professionals should train on a regular basis. D. Musical geniuses benefit most from regular training. D For nearly 40 years, Uranus (天王星) and its five largest moons have been regarded as nothing more than frozen and lifeless. This long-held view originated in 1986, when the spacecraft Voyager 2 had the misfortune of flying past Uranus just as a solar storm hit, creating a misleading impression of its true nature. Far from what was previously assumed, a new analysis suggests that these worlds could hold hidden oceans, and perhaps even the conditions necessary for life. This news has pushed forward NASA’s $4 billion plan to return to Uranus with a mission launch by 2032, aiming to arrive there by 2050. The space exploration often feels like stepping into science fiction. As NASA scientist Geoffrey A. Landis imagined in his 1999 short story Into the Blue Abyss, humanity’s drive to seek life in unexpected places shows the tension between hope and uncertainty. The story mirrors our real-world missions to the extent that both reflect the wonder and the challenges of searching for life beyond Earth. While reality may lack the drama of fiction, studying Uranus holds significant value for understanding similar faraway worlds. In the past 30 years, over 5,500 exoplanets — planets outside our solar system — have been discovered. Some are described as “Earth-like”, but none meet the exact conditions of a rocky planet in a star’s habitable zone, where water remains liquid instead of boiling away or freezing. By studying Uranus up close, we may unlock clues about whether these distant worlds could truly support life. There are uncertainties and challenges in space missions. But consider the importance: if Uranus or its moons contain hidden seas, they would join a growing list of “ocean worlds” in the solar system. Are we alone, or are the building blocks of life more common than we ever thought? Exploring the Uranian system brings humanity one step closer to answering this deepest question. 32. How is the topic introduced in paragraph 1? A. By stating the true nature of Uranus. B. By describing an unfortunate space mission. C. By challenging a long-held misunderstanding. D. By presenting a common phenomenon in space. 33. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning Landis’story? A. The uncertainty about life beyond Earth. B. The drive of humanity to seek life in space. C. The mix of wonder and risk in space exploration. D. The reflection of real-world missions in science fiction. 34. What’s the value of studying Uranus according to the text? A. Discovering habitable exoplanets. B. Preparing for NASA’s future missions. C. Understanding the wonder of life. D. Answering questions about the solar system. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Search for Life Beyond Earth B. Why Uranus Is Worth a Second Look C. The Challenges of Exploring Uranus D. Why Missions to Ocean Worlds Matter 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Aim for the moon and even if you miss, you will land among the stars.” This saying is meant to inspire people to pursue perfection because even if we fail, we will still be in a better place than where we started. Yet some people now prefer to take the easier path and achieve the bare minimum (最低限度). ____36____ I lean towards embracing mediocrity (接受平庸) over pursuing perfection. First, embracing mediocrity allows people to take things slow and make gradual progress. For example, teachers don’t expect students to become experts at a particular concept immediately; they focus on accepting mediocrity first. ____37____ ____38____ Research has shown that perfectionists tend to suffer from depression and social anxiety because they keep finding fault with themselves. For those who embrace mediocrity, they don’t have to constantly compare themselves, which prevents the health problems that come along with doing so. Furthermore, embracing mediocrity frees up time and energy for meaningful activities. According to Malcolm Caldwell, it takes at least 10,000 hours to achieve expertise in a given skill. ____39____ Because less time is spent doing so and one can enjoy other areas of life, like going on a trip with friends instead of spending an unreasonably long time perfecting a skill. Therefore, embracing mediocrity is not about giving up, but about setting realistic goals and finding satisfaction. ____40____ Let us stop pursuing the unachievable and focus instead on goals we can realistically achieve. A. Aiming high is not always the wisest choice. B. However, this is unnecessary if one embraces mediocrity. C. Embracing mediocrity can also lead to better mental health. D. Then how to keep a balance between mediocrity and perfection? E. Besides, the pursuit of perfection often comes at the cost of health. F. Coupled with sufficient practice, the students will eventually master the basics. G. This begs the question: should we “aim for the moon” or aim for what is achievable? 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。 Growing up beside a national forest, I never had to look far to see nature in its glory.

It was the bird. She flew back and forth, tapping fiercely. ____47____ something was wrong. We hurried outside. To my ____48____, a snake slid up the trunk toward the nest. Mom quickly grabbed a stick and ____49____ the snake with one swing (挥动). It slid away. The bird flew back to her nest and ____50____ down with her young. For a long moment, we sat quietly, ____51____ at what we’d experienced. “All spring we’ve watched her,” Mom said. “Is it possible she’s been watching us too?” “How else would she know where to go for ____52____?” I replied. “She trusted we were friends, not enemies.” That morning taught me our connection with creatures went ____53____ ways. We had been her guardians, and perhaps she had also been ____54____ us — reminding us that love ____55____ all boundaries (边界). 41. A. held B. shared C. took D. exchanged 42. A. familiar B. equal C. adapted D. connected 43. A. figured B. pictured C. spotted D. remembered 44. A. progress B. growth C. response D. routine 45. A. tired B. bored C. full D. free 46.

With ____56____ history of over 2,000 years, it combines water purification (净化), poetic gatherings, and nature ____57____ (appreciate). The festival ____58____ (date) back to the Zhou Dynasty, when ancient Chinese believed river washing could clean body and soul. This practice, ____59____ (know) as fuxi, developed into a public celebration by the Han Dynasty. One legend relates Shangsi to Nüwa, the goddess, who shaped animals before creating humans on the third day, ____60____ (make) it “Human Day”.

Letters for Oak Avenue landed at Oak Court, parcels (包裹) for flat seven arrived at flat three. Every day found him breathlessly rushing down the street in his red Royal Mail jacket, leaving confused residents behind him. Each mistake landed on his shoulders like a small, heavy stone. Strangely, his mistakes began to bring the once quiet, disconnected neighbourhood together. A young couple expecting their first baby received an elderly pair’s pension (养老金) notice. When they returned it, the old couple invited them in for tea and biscuits. A retired old lady found a rain-soaked parcel of baby clothes meant for her pregnant neighbour. She dried them, added a hand-knitted sweater, and a friendship started. “That postman is a walking disaster,” residents laughed heartily, “but a rather lovely one.” Not everyone was pleased, though. Someone made a formal complaint about the frequent misdeliveries. Soon, a Royal Mail manager arrived to check Wesley’s performance. The neighbours gathered in the community center, worried for the man who had accidentally become the heart of their community. They spoke in his favour but Wesley knew that kindness alone wouldn’t save his job. That night, he sat alone in his tiny flat, a new map spread across the table. Oak Avenue, Oak Court, Oak Crescent — the names became blurry (模糊的) before his tired eyes. He had tried memorising them like a schoolboy. Nothing worked. He buried his face in his tired, shaky hands, a wave of helplessness washing over him. The silent map, the ticking clock, the weight of the day — all of them seemed to be waiting for him to fail. He needed a solution, something simple, something the whole street could help with. As he looked out the window at the lights of the neighbourhood, an idea began to form. 注意： 1.续写词数应为100个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The next morning, Wesley took the new map and started walking from door to door. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $台州市高一年级期末质量评估试题第一节听下面五段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，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。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。I'm not sure if I should join the badminton in club.
