Early in my teaching career, students complained about my accent, and my department chair once summed up my performance: Dr. Sun was a good teacher, but he had an accent. Even my children urged me to try harder. “Anything can be done,” they insisted. The unspoken accusation was clear: If I still sounded foreign, I wasn’t trying hard enough. What neither of them knew was that biology had already cast the die. There is a term for the firm influence of one’s mother tongue: imprinting, an early, mostly unchangeable form of learning. The idea first entered science through the brilliance of Konrad Lorenz, who famously persuaded newly hatched goslings to follow him as if he were their mother. At the time, imprinting was mostly treated as an animal curiosity. Its deeper relevance to humans took longer to sink in. Decades of research since then have reinforced the point. Human brains pass through a critical period for language acquisition. During childhood, neural (神经的) circuits are finely tuned to absorb sounds and accents. Later, those circuits become less flexible, not because adults are lazy, but because gene expression changes with age. This is why children can pick up a new language without an accent, while adults, no matter how dedicated, cannot. I stopped fighting this biological limit and focused on areas imprinting does not control: word choice, sentence structure and rhythm. Something unexpected happened – my English writing improved greatly, and I even began writing books in English. Biology does not write our future, but it does draw boundaries. That is why we abandon many childhood dreams: basketball for being too short, soccer for starting too late. Ignoring them, we trip up. Understanding them, we can work around them. The best kind of confidence is not the belief that you can do anything. It is the wisdom to know what you cannot do, and the discipline to stop wasting precious time trying to prove otherwise. 24. What did the author’s children accuse him of? A. Showing off his pronunciation. B. Not trying hard to drop his accent. C. Speaking with an accent in class. D. Refusing to learn standard English. 25. What does the underlined phrase “cast the die” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Delayed the process. B. Unlocked the potential. C. Improved the situation. D. Determined the outcome. 26. What makes it hard for adults to learn a foreign language without an accent? A. Mental laziness. B. Learning habits. C. Biological changes. D. Genetic patterns. 27. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Play to your strengths. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Early bird catches the worm. C Late every summer, fat polar bears gather outside Kaktovik, the only settlement in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska, to feast on whale bodies left behind by hunters. It is an attraction that once brought 1,000 or more tourists each day to the town. In 2021, however, the government stopped the polar bear tourism due to concerns about how tourists were affecting bear behavior and overrunning the tiny town with about 250 people. Now, Kaktovik leaders are hoping to revive it, saying it could be worth millions to the local economy and give residents another source of income. “We definitely see the benefit for tourism,” said Charles Lampe, president of the Kaktovik Inupiat Corp, which owns 373 square kilometers of the reserve. “But it can’t be run like it was before.” As far back as the early 1980s, anyone in Kaktovik with a boat and knowledge of the waters could take tourists out to watch the bears. When polar bears were declared a threatened species in 2008, tourism in Kaktovik grew unexpectedly fast, since many people wanted to see the creatures before they would die out by the end of the century. As tourists flooded in, the government required tour operators to apply for permits which drove the locals out of the industry. Before long, large out-of-town operators moved in and even more tourists were coming to Kaktovik during the six-week viewing season. The town’s hotels and restaurants also became unprofitable when large operators began flying tourists in from Fairbanks or Anchorage for day trips. Kaktovik leaders are now in talks with the government to address the concerns and re-start the industry, perhaps as early as 2027. The government said in a statement that it’s working with Kaktovik “to ensure that any future opportunities are managed in a way that will properly deal with resource protection, visitor’s safety and residents’ concerns.” 28. What most probably led to the end of the polar bear tourism in 2021? A. Lack of skilled guides. B. Bear attacks. C. Extinction of polar bears. D. Overtourism. 29. What can we say about the polar bear tours in Kaktovik in the early 1980s? A. They were managed by the government. B. They were run by out-of-town operators. C. They were mainly organized by individuals. D. They were usually led by well-trained guides. 30. Which of the following can best describe the official permits? A. They were very helpful for local economy. B. They benefited the large companies greatly. C. They required large operators to help the locals. D. They did not allow locals to work in the industry. 31. What is the government’s attitude to Kaktovik leaders’ proposal? A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unsupportive. D. Unclear. D Scientists have long identified four elements about apps or social media that hold children’s attention for as long as possible. Understanding them may help parents know how to avoid potential traps for their kids. One of the elements is solitude. Studies have found that children who regularly use screens alone in their bedrooms have a higher risk of developing what psychologists call problematic usage. That is, they continue to use an app or play a game even when it damages their health. For example, the app may affect their sleep or friendships, but they still could not stop. Another element is bottomlessness. Videos keep appearing on TikTok and YouTube. Photos, comments and likes keep popping up on Instagram. Apps have seemingly endless materials for kids to see, and they all show or play automatically. There’s no natural stopping point. So kids never feel finished or satisfied. That feeling grows even stronger with the third ingredient (成分) added into the mix: speed. For social media, the speed at which kids can find “new” content has jumped with several technological advancements, including the invention of higher-speed internet and easy scroll (翻屏). So the faster kids can scroll and watch, the harder it is for them to pull away from an app. The speed can create a sense that they merge (合体) with the screen. In other words, they don’t know where they begin and the machine ends. The speed just pulls them into this flow. The final ingredient is teasing. Here’s how teasing typically works: The app never gives kids what they are really looking for. It gives just enough to keep them attracted. This teasing gives kids the feeling that they’re going to get what they’re seeking soon. So they’ll be there all day trying to get that next big thing. This is perhaps the most important feature of the app. With all these four elements, nearly everyone, not just the kids, will get addicted to the app or social media. 32. Which phenomenon can be described as solitude? A. Playing alone. B. Offering endless rewards. C. Responding quickly. D. Keeping users unsatisfied. 33. What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Children. B. Videos. C. Programs. D. Apps. 34. What is probably the most addictive element about an app? A. Solitude. B. Teasing. C. Speed. D. Bottomlessness. 35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text? A. To review a product. B. To warn teenagers. C. To analyze the harm. D. To keep parents informed. 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。 Of course, not all book clubs are the same, and there are a lot of different ways to organise.

She sat in her seat quietly, thinking hard about what to bring. Suddenly, she remembered that the Lantern Festival happened to fall on next Friday. Her eyes lit up with excitement. On Thursday, the classroom was filled with joy and laughter as students shared their beloved snacks and toys. When Li Na’s turn came, she rose, holding a wooden box. She opened it gently and took out a folded piece of red paper. With a few skillful folds and pulls, the paper magically turned into a beautiful lantern. She placed a candle inside and lit it carefully. “What is it?” asked Emma, her deskmate. “It is amazing!” Holding up the lantern, Li Na smiled and introduced the Lantern Festival — its traditions of hanging lanterns, guessing riddles (谜语), and eating sweet sticky rice balls called yuanxiao. “Red lanterns symbolize hope and reunion in Chinese culture,” she explained. “And this year, the festival happens to be on next Friday.” Seeing how interested the students were, Mr. Smith walked over with a smile and said to Li Na, “Would you like to host a Lantern Festival party for the whole class next Friday night? I’m sure it will be a wonderful way to connect cultures.” “I’d love to!” Li Na replied without hesitation. Applause erupted in the classroom. But as she sat down, a little worry set in — how could she make the party really fun and unforgettable? 注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Li Na quickly realized the key was to get everyone involved in the preparation. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The party took place as scheduled in the classroom. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 河南省信阳高级中学北湖校区 2025-2026学年高一下期06月测试（二） 英语试题 考生注意： 1.答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2．答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题纸上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，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。 例：How much is the shirt?

And the glass walls of the building let in so much natural light. W: Well, it’s still early and the weather is lovely. Shall we walk to the riverside park from here? M: Sounds perfect. Let’s take the path. Oh, I left my bag at the reception desk in the library hall. I have to go back and get it. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17.

It could be used on cloudy days, at night and indoors. Such clocks were probably first used in Egypt in 2000 B.C. They were also used for many years in Arabia, India, China and all of Europe. The simplest water clock needed two parts: a small bowl and a large bowl. The small bowl had a tiny hole in the bottom. The large bowl was divided into equal parts and marked by lines. Water was poured into the small bowl and it fell slowly down into the large bowl in tiny drops. Usually it took an hour for the water to rise from one line to the next in the large bowl. A beautiful water clock was made in Persia over a thousand years ago. It was given as a present to the emperor of France. This water clock could be heard as well as seen. It contained twelve doors, each representing an hour. Every hour a door opened and the proper number of metal balls dropped into a tiny brass plate to strike the hour. At twelve o’clock, twelve tiny horsemen came out to shut all the doors. This was probably one of the first striking clocks. 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 Make it: Fashion Looking for something to do on the weekend?

(Make it邀请你的家人通过版画创作来体验时尚。)”和第三段中“Come along to learn some new skills as a family. Let your child take the lead, but work together as a family to explore designing and creating. (全家一起来学习一些新技能吧。让你的孩子带头，但作为一个家庭一起探索设计和创造。)”可知，该工作坊鼓励家庭参与。故选B项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Tickets are £20 minimum for one adult and child pair. You can add extra adult or child tickets to this booking. Please book one £10 ticket for each additional child or each extra adult attending. (票价为至少20英镑，适用于一名成人和一名儿童组合。你可以为此预订添加额外的成人或儿童票。请为每增加的一名儿童或每增加的一名成人预订一张10英镑的票。)”可知，一个由一对夫妇和两个孩子组成的家庭需要支付40（=20+10+10）英镑的票款。故选C项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“If the V & A needs to cancel the event due to an emergency, or for any reason beyond control, we will reschedule your booking for a later date. (如果维多利亚与阿尔伯特博物馆因紧急情况或任何不可控原因需要取消活动，我们将为你的预订重新安排到更晚的日期。)”可知，如果该博物馆因紧急情况取消活动，预订将被改到另一天。故选C项。 B I have struggled with speaking English since learning it as a second language at 27. Early in my teaching career, students complained about my accent, and my department chair once summed up my performance: Dr. Sun was a good teacher, but he had an accent. Even my children urged me to try harder. “Anything can be done,” they insisted. The unspoken accusation was clear: If I still sounded foreign, I wasn’t trying hard enough. What neither of them knew was that biology had already cast the die. There is a term for the firm influence of one’s mother tongue: imprinting, an early, mostly unchangeable form of learning. The idea first entered science through the brilliance of Konrad Lorenz, who famously persuaded newly hatched goslings to follow him as if he were their mother. At the time, imprinting was mostly treated as an animal curiosity. Its deeper relevance to humans took longer to sink in. Decades of research since then have reinforced the point. Human brains pass through a critical period for language acquisition. During childhood, neural (神经的) circuits are finely tuned to absorb sounds and accents. Later, those circuits become less flexible, not because adults are lazy, but because gene expression changes with age. This is why children can pick up a new language without an accent, while adults, no matter how dedicated, cannot. I stopped fighting this biological limit and focused on areas imprinting does not control: word choice, sentence structure and rhythm. Something unexpected happened – my English writing improved greatly, and I even began writing books in English. Biology does not write our future, but it does draw boundaries. That is why we abandon many childhood dreams: basketball for being too short, soccer for starting too late. Ignoring them, we trip up. Understanding them, we can work around them. The best kind of confidence is not the belief that you can do anything. It is the wisdom to know what you cannot do, and the discipline to stop wasting precious time trying to prove otherwise. 24. What did the author’s children accuse him of? A. Showing off his pronunciation. B. Not trying hard to drop his accent. C. Speaking with an accent in class. D. Refusing to learn standard English. 25. What does the underlined phrase “cast the die” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Delayed the process. B. Unlocked the potential. C. Improved the situation. D. Determined the outcome. 26. What makes it hard for adults to learn a foreign language without an accent? A. Mental laziness. B. Learning habits. C. Biological changes. D. Genetic patterns. 27. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Play to your strengths. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Early bird catches the worm. 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】作者讲述自己成年后学英语难改口音的经历，介绍母语印记的科学原理，告诉我们要认清自身局限、扬长避短。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The unspoken accusation was clear: If I still sounded foreign, I wasn’t trying hard enough.(这种无声的指责很明显：如果我说话仍然有外国口音，就是我不够努力)”可知，作者的孩子们指责他没有努力改掉口音。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“There is a term for the firm influence of one’s mother tongue: imprinting, an early, mostly unchangeable form of learning. (母语带来的这种根深蒂固的影响有一个专业术语：印记效应，这是一种早期形成、基本无法改变的学习形式)”可知，母语对人的语言习惯有早期且几乎不可改变的固定影响，因此划线词所在句子表示“生理条件早已决定了结果”。cast the die表示“决定结果”。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Later, those circuits become less flexible, not because adults are lazy, but because gene expression changes with age.(后来，这些神经回路变得不那么灵活，不是因为成年人懒惰，而是因为基因表达会随着年龄发生变化)”可知，生理方面的变化导致成年人学外语很难没有口音。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Understanding them, we can work around them. The best kind of confidence is not the belief that you can do anything. It is the wisdom to know what you cannot do.(看清局限，我们就能扬长避短。最好的自信不是无所不能，而是认清自己做不到的事)”可知，作者想告诉我们要发挥自身优势，避开短板。 C Late every summer, fat polar bears gather outside Kaktovik, the only settlement in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge in Alaska, to feast on whale bodies left behind by hunters. It is an attraction that once brought 1,000 or more tourists each day to the town. In 2021, however, the government stopped the polar bear tourism due to concerns about how tourists were affecting bear behavior and overrunning the tiny town with about 250 people. Now, Kaktovik leaders are hoping to revive it, saying it could be worth millions to the local economy and give residents another source of income. “We definitely see the benefit for tourism,” said Charles Lampe, president of the Kaktovik Inupiat Corp, which owns 373 square kilometers of the reserve. “But it can’t be run like it was before.” As far back as the early 1980s, anyone in Kaktovik with a boat and knowledge of the waters could take tourists out to watch the bears. When polar bears were declared a threatened species in 2008, tourism in Kaktovik grew unexpectedly fast, since many people wanted to see the creatures before they would die out by the end of the century. As tourists flooded in, the government required tour operators to apply for permits which drove the locals out of the industry. Before long, large out-of-town operators moved in and even more tourists were coming to Kaktovik during the six-week viewing season. The town’s hotels and restaurants also became unprofitable when large operators began flying tourists in from Fairbanks or Anchorage for day trips. Kaktovik leaders are now in talks with the government to address the concerns and re-start the industry, perhaps as early as 2027. The government said in a statement that it’s working with Kaktovik “to ensure that any future opportunities are managed in a way that will properly deal with resource protection, visitor’s safety and residents’ concerns.” 28. What most probably led to the end of the polar bear tourism in 2021? A. Lack of skilled guides. B. Bear attacks. C. Extinction of polar bears. D. Overtourism. 29. What can we say about the polar bear tours in Kaktovik in the early 1980s? A. They were managed by the government. B. They were run by out-of-town operators. C. They were mainly organized by individuals. D. They were usually led by well-trained guides. 30. Which of the following can best describe the official permits? A. They were very helpful for local economy. B. They benefited the large companies greatly. C. They required large operators to help the locals. D. They did not allow locals to work in the industry. 31. What is the government’s attitude to Kaktovik leaders’ proposal? A. Favorable. B. Doubtful. C. Unsupportive. D. Unclear. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. B 31. A 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了阿拉斯加这座小镇曾因观北极熊旅游闻名，2021 年因游客泛滥、干扰动物而被叫停。如今当地希望重启该产业增收，正与政府协商，力求规范运营。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In 2021, however, the government stopped the polar bear tourism due to concerns about how tourists were affecting bear behavior and overrunning the tiny town with about 250 people.( 然而，2021年，由于担心游客对熊的行为造成影响，并使这座仅有约250名居民的小镇不堪重负，政府已停止了北极熊旅游活动。)”可知，最可能导致2021年北极熊旅游结束的原因是旅游过度。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“As far back as the early 1980s, anyone in Kaktovik with a boat and knowledge of the waters could take tourists out to watch the bears.( 早在20世纪80年代初，只要在卡科维克有船只并熟悉水域的人，就可以带游客出海观熊。)”可知，关于20世纪80年代初在卡科托维克的北极熊旅游活动主要由当地个人自发组织。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“As tourists flooded in, the government required tour operators to apply for permits which drove the locals out of the industry. Before long, large out-of-town operators moved in and even more tourists were coming to Kaktovik during the six-week viewing season.( 随着游客大量涌入，政府要求旅行社申请许可，导致当地居民纷纷退出旅游业。不久之后，外地大型运营商相继进入，使得在为期六周的观景季节期间，前往卡克托维克的游客数量进一步增加。)”可推知，官方许可证制度最终极大地惠及了大型公司。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Kaktovik leaders are now in talks with the government to address the concerns and re-start the industry, perhaps as early as 2027. The government said in a statement that it’s working with Kaktovik “to ensure that any future opportunities are managed in a way that will properly deal with resource protection, visitor’s safety and residents’ concerns.”(卡克托维克当地负责人目前正与政府磋商，以解决各方顾虑、重启相关产业，最快有望在 2027 年实现。政府在一份声明中表示，他们正与卡克托维克合作，“确保未来的发展机会能够妥善处理资源保护、游客安全以及当地居民的关切。”)”可推知，政府对卡科托维克领导人提议的态度是支持的。 D Scientists have long identified four elements about apps or social media that hold children’s attention for as long as possible. Understanding them may help parents know how to avoid potential traps for their kids. One of the elements is solitude. Studies have found that children who regularly use screens alone in their bedrooms have a higher risk of developing what psychologists call problematic usage. That is, they continue to use an app or play a game even when it damages their health. For example, the app may affect their sleep or friendships, but they still could not stop. Another element is bottomlessness. Videos keep appearing on TikTok and YouTube. Photos, comments and likes keep popping up on Instagram. Apps have seemingly endless materials for kids to see, and they all show or play automatically. There’s no natural stopping point. So kids never feel finished or satisfied. That feeling grows even stronger with the third ingredient (成分) added into the mix: speed. For social media, the speed at which kids can find “new” content has jumped with several technological advancements, including the invention of higher-speed internet and easy scroll (翻屏). So the faster kids can scroll and watch, the harder it is for them to pull away from an app. The speed can create a sense that they merge (合体) with the screen. In other words, they don’t know where they begin and the machine ends. The speed just pulls them into this flow. The final ingredient is teasing. Here’s how teasing typically works: The app never gives kids what they are really looking for. It gives just enough to keep them attracted. This teasing gives kids the feeling that they’re going to get what they’re seeking soon. So they’ll be there all day trying to get that next big thing. This is perhaps the most important feature of the app. With all these four elements, nearly everyone, not just the kids, will get addicted to the app or social media. 32. Which phenomenon can be described as solitude? A. Playing alone. B. Offering endless rewards. C. Responding quickly. D. Keeping users unsatisfied. 33. What does the underlined word “they” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. Children. B. Videos. C. Programs. D. Apps. 34. What is probably the most addictive element about an app? A. Solitude. B. Teasing. C. Speed. D. Bottomlessness. 35. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text? A. To review a product. B. To warn teenagers. C. To analyze the harm. D. To keep parents informed. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了应用程序或社交媒体吸引孩子注意力的四个元素，并指出理解这些元素有助于父母帮助孩子避免成瘾陷阱。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“One of the elements is solitude. Studies have found that children who regularly use screens alone in their bedrooms have a higher risk of developing what psychologists call problematic usage. (其中一个因素是独处。研究表明，儿童如果经常独自在卧室使用屏幕，就更容易出现心理学家所说的“问题性使用”风险。)”可知，“独自玩耍”的现象可归为独处。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词所在句“Apps have seemingly endless materials for kids to see, and they all show or play automatically. (应用程序有看似无穷无尽的材料供孩子们观看，而且它们都会自动显示或播放。)”可知，这是一个并列句，they指代前面分句的主语Apps“应用程序”，描述这些应用程序自动显示或播放其内容。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“This teasing gives kids the feeling that they’re going to get what they’re seeking soon. So they’ll be there all day trying to get that next big thing. This is perhaps the most important feature of the app. (这种引诱让孩子们觉得他们很快就会得到他们真正想要的东西。所以他们会整天待在那里，试图理解下一个大事。这也许是应用程序最重要的特征。)”可知，引诱是最易让人上瘾的元素。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Scientists have long identified four elements about apps or social media that hold children’s attention for as long as possible. Understanding them may help parents know how to avoid potential traps for their kids. (科学家长期以来已发现，有四个关于应用程序或社交媒体的要素能尽可能长时间地吸引儿童的注意力。了解这些因素有助于家长避免让孩子陷入潜在的陷阱。)”可知，文章开篇点明写作目的：帮助父母了解这些吸引儿童注意力的元素，从而保护孩子，随后具体分析四个元素，最终落脚于让父母知晓情况。 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。 Of course, not all book clubs are the same, and there are a lot of different ways to organise.

Our advice is that it’s really important to make sure that scheduling is easy.( 组织读书会会议可能会比你想象中更费心。我们的建议是，确保排期安排得轻松便捷非常重要。)”整段都在围绕“日程安排（scheduling）”展开，核心建议是“确保日程安排简单易行”，A选项“Make scheduling really easy(让安排变得非常简单 )”和该段主旨内容一致，为总结该段内容。 【37题详解】 前文“Our advice is that it’s really important to make sure that scheduling is easy.( 我们的建议是：确保排期安排得轻松便捷。)”提出“日程安排要简单”，后文“Then stick to the monthly schedule so that it’s super predictable when book clubs are happening.( 然后坚持每月固定的安排，这样读书会的活动就变得非常可预测。)”说“然后坚持每月的安排”，G选项“You can figure out a date each month that works for the book club at the beginning.( 你可以在一开始就为读书俱乐部确定每个月适合的日期。)”给出了具体的操作方法 ——“在一开始就确定每个月适合的日期”，形成了“总建议→具体步骤→后续要求”的完整逻辑链。 【38题详解】 后文“If it is about meeting new people, then folks can bring a new person to the book club at each meeting.( 如果是关于认识新朋友，那么人们可以在每次聚会时带一个新朋友来读书俱乐部。)”出现了结构完全一致的句子“If it is about meeting new people, then...”，说明此处也应是一个以“If”开头的条件句，说明不同的“意图（intention）”对应不同的做法。E 选项“If you want to expand your knowledge about a particular thing(如果你想扩展你对某件事的知识 )”与后文“then try to read more widely than you have previously done.( 那么就尝试比以前读得更广泛。)”语义衔接自然。 【39题详解】 前文“Don’t be afraid to pick something controversial (有争议的).( 不要害怕选择一些有争议的书。)”建议“不要害怕选择有争议的书”，F选项“It creates really great discussion because people like to do a little bit of debate.( 这会引发非常精彩的讨论，因为人们喜欢进行一点辩论。)”解释了这样做的好处 ——“有争议的内容会催生精彩的讨论，因为人们喜欢辩论”，完美承接上文。 【40题详解】 前文“For example, you can do some reading on the historical context of the book.( 例如，可以阅读一下这本书的历史背景。)”举例说明“可以了解书的历史背景”来提供语境，D选项“You can also listen to some interviews with the book’s author.( 你也可以收听一些书籍作者的访谈。)” 用“also”引出另一种提供语境的方法 ——“听作者的采访”，与前文的举例形成并列关系，共同支撑“Provide context”这一主题。 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。 A little boy almost thought of himself as the most unfortunate child in the world.

She sat in her seat quietly, thinking hard about what to bring. Suddenly, she remembered that the Lantern Festival happened to fall on next Friday. Her eyes lit up with excitement. On Thursday, the classroom was filled with joy and laughter as students shared their beloved snacks and toys. When Li Na’s turn came, she rose, holding a wooden box. She opened it gently and took out a folded piece of red paper. With a few skillful folds and pulls, the paper magically turned into a beautiful lantern. She placed a candle inside and lit it carefully. “What is it?” asked Emma, her deskmate. “It is amazing!” Holding up the lantern, Li Na smiled and introduced the Lantern Festival — its traditions of hanging lanterns, guessing riddles (谜语), and eating sweet sticky rice balls called yuanxiao. “Red lanterns symbolize hope and reunion in Chinese culture,” she explained. “And this year, the festival happens to be on next Friday.” Seeing how interested the students were, Mr. Smith walked over with a smile and said to Li Na, “Would you like to host a Lantern Festival party for the whole class next Friday night? I’m sure it will be a wonderful way to connect cultures.” “I’d love to!” Li Na replied without hesitation. Applause erupted in the classroom.

Everyone set to work immediately, and by Friday afternoon, everything was ready. The party took place as scheduled in the classroom. Varied red lanterns were used to decorate the room, creating a festive atmosphere. Guided by Li Na, the students made yuanxiao together. Soon, steaming bowls of yuanxiao were served, and everyone loved their handmade treats. The highlight was the riddle-guessing activity, which filled the classroom with laughter and cheers.
