Deborah is the founder of the Poetry Pharmacy, located in an old ironworks in the heart of Shropshire. This bookshop aims to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. Last year, a second Poetry Pharmacy opened inside LUSH on London’s Oxford Street, seeking to bring a little calm to the capital. Even before she had two successful “practices” under her belt, Deborah was very aware of the power of poetry. She used the medium as a tool to help those living with dementia (痴呆), working in care homes for years. “I would sit with people and talk to them, listen to them,” she says. “We would read poetry. I would see a change happen as they were taken to a magical place.” “The ambulance” was Deborah’s first exploration into poetic medicine. After spotting a special vehicle on eBay, an idea came to her — she would bring poetry prescriptions (处方) directly to people. And so, Deborah travelled the country in her 1950s ambulance, offering consultations and guidance to those in need. After nearly a decade of mobile medicine, Deborah parked up her practice for the stability of a physical store in Shropshire. With its original iron shelving and warm wooden counter, Deborah knew that the Bishop’s Castle location was the perfect place to set up shop. This would be the world’s first walk-in poetry pharmacy. Since opening in 2019, the Pharmacy has gone from strength to strength, being awarded Regional Independent Bookshop of the Year from the British Book Awards in 2024. “It’s really important not to ask people about their problems,” Deborah says. “We ask about that person’s reading habits, how they relax, who they are in their best state. It should be a pleasure to answer these questions.” 24. Why did Deborah set up the Poetry Pharmacy? A. To treat serious diseases. B. To gain nationwide fame. C. To bring people comfort. D. To train professional poets. 25. How did Deborah help people with dementia in care homes? A. She taught them to write poems. B. She read poetry to accompany them. C. She offered them medical treatment. D. She took them to visit magical places. 26. What does the underlined phrase “parked up her practice” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Stopped driving her ambulance. B. Improved her poetry service quality. C. Ended her mobile poetry service. D. Found a perfect location for her shop. 27. What does Deborah’s practice show? A. Words are the best medicine. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Good health is the best wealth. D. Actions speak louder than words. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了Deborah Alma创立的“诗歌药房”，她通过诗歌为人们提供情感慰藉。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Deborah is the founder of the Poetry Pharmacy, located in an old ironworks in the heart of Shropshire. This bookshop aims to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. (Deborah是诗歌药房的创始人，该药房坐落于什罗普郡中心的一处旧铁厂内。这家书店旨在用文字缓解忧虑，让访客可以预约诗歌咨询获得量身定制的建议，或从书架上获取快速解决方案。)”可知，Deborah创立诗歌药房是为了给人们带来安慰。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“She used the medium as a tool to help those living with dementia (痴呆), working in care homes for years. “I would sit with people and talk to them, listen to them,” she says. “We would read poetry. I would see a change happen as they were taken to a magical place.” (她将这一媒介作为一种工具，多年来在养老院中帮助那些患有痴呆症的人。“我会坐在他们身边，和他们聊天，倾听他们，”她说。“我们会一起读诗。我能看到他们身上发生的变化，仿佛被带到了一个神奇的地方。”)”可知，Deborah通过朗读诗歌来陪伴痴呆症患者。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“After nearly a decade of mobile medicine, Deborah parked up her practice for the stability of a physical store in Shropshire. (在从事了近十年的移动诗歌医疗之后，Deborah为了在什罗普郡开设稳定的实体店而parked up her practice。)”以及“This would be the world’s first walk-in poetry pharmacy. (这将是世界上第一家无需预约即可就诊的诗歌药房。)”可知，她结束了移动诗歌服务，转而开设实体店。故划线短语意为“结束了她的移动诗歌服务”。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，结合第一段中“This bookshop aims to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. (这家书店旨在用文字缓解忧虑，让访客可以预约诗歌咨询获得量身定制的建议，或从书架上获取快速解决方案。)”、第二段中“She used the medium as a tool to help those living with dementia (她将诗歌作为一种工具来帮助痴呆症患者)”和第三段中“she would bring poetry prescriptions directly to people (她将诗歌处方直接带给人们)”可知，Deborah Alma通过诗歌为人们提供情感慰藉，帮助减轻忧虑，她的实践证明“文字是最好的良药”。 C One would think that the astronauts’ living spaces should be perfectly clean, but it turns out that creating a “dirtier” environment with more microorganisms from Earth may boost their health. That’s what recent research in Cell suggests after showing the International Space Station (ISS) is overly sterile (无菌的). The sterile nature of the station has led to a low diversity of microorganisms, which could be contributing to immune system disorders, skin discomfort, and other inflammatory (炎症性的) conditions in astronauts. According to the researchers, the results indicate that the most common health problems observed in space could be reduced by introducing certain environmental microorganisms from Earth onto the ISS. To learn more about the microbial life living and interacting in space, the researchers called on astronauts to take 803 samples of the different surfaces on the ISS. Once collected and sent to Earth, the samples were analyzed to determine the presence of bacterial species and chemicals. Notably, however, absent in the ISS were the microorganisms from natural environments that strengthen human health, allowing us to grow our own hardy microorganisms. Contact with these microorganisms, which exist in the water and soil on Earth, supports the beneficial bacteria that live inside our bodies, helping us digest food and fight diseases. The researchers claim that introducing microorganisms from Earth could potentially boost the microbial community on the ISS without posing any health risks to astronauts. “Future-built environments, including space stations, could benefit from intentionally developing diverse microbial communities that better imitate the natural microbial exposures experienced on Earth,” said Rodolfo Salido, a study author and a researcher from the University of California San Diego. He also stressed that if we really want life to thrive outside Earth, we can’t just launch a small branch of the tree of life into space. We need to start thinking about what other beneficial companions we should be sending with these astronauts to help them develop ecosystems that will be sustainable and beneficial for all. 28. What can we learn from the study in paragraph 1? A. Overclean space stations harm astronaut health. B. Diverse microorganisms lead to serious illnesses. C. Dirty environments strengthen the immune system. D. Direct skin discomfort results from microorganisms. 29. What did the researchers do to conduct the study? A. They studied samples from ISS. B. They observed astronauts on ISS. C. They introduced samples on ISS. D. They cultured microorganisms from ISS. 30. What can be inferred about microorganisms in paragraph 3? A. Microorganisms on Earth kill bacteria. B. Microorganisms on Earth benefit human health. C. Microorganisms on the ISS increase health risks. D. Microorganisms on the ISS improve human health. 31. What did Salido suggest about future-built environment? A. Increase clean surfaces in space stations. B. Launch more branches of trees into space. C. Recreate Earth’s natural microbial conditions. D. Send more companions with astronauts in space. 【答案】28. A 29. A 30. B 31. C 【解析】 【导语】介绍国际空间站过于无菌，缺少有益微生物，研究提出引入地球天然菌群改善宇航员健康。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The sterile nature of the station has led to a low diversity of microorganisms, which could be contributing to immune system disorders, skin discomfort, and other inflammatory (炎症性的) conditions in astronauts.(空间站的无菌环境导致微生物多样性极低，这可能引发宇航员免疫系统紊乱、皮肤不适以及其他炎症问题。)”可知，空间站过度洁净会损害宇航员健康。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“the researchers called on astronauts to take 803 samples of the different surfaces on the ISS. Once collected and sent to Earth, the samples were analyzed to determine the presence of bacterial species and chemicals.(研究人员让宇航员在空间站不同表面采集803份样本，样本运回地球后被分析，以确认细菌种类和化学物质。)”可知，研究人员分析了空间站采集的样本。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Notably, however, absent in the ISS were the microorganisms from natural environments that strengthen human health, allowing us to grow our own hardy microorganisms. Contact with these microorganisms, which exist in the water and soil on Earth, supports the beneficial bacteria that live inside our bodies, helping us digest food and fight diseases.(但值得注意的是，国际空间站中缺少那些存在于自然环境、能够增强人体健康的微生物，而这类微生物可以帮助我们培育适应性强的自身菌群。地球上水土中存在的这类微生物，能滋养人体内有益菌群，助力人体消化食物、抵御疾病。)”可推知，地球上的微生物对人体健康有益。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Future-built environments, including space stations, could benefit from intentionally developing diverse microbial communities that better imitate the natural microbial exposures experienced on Earth.(未来建造的各类空间设施，包括空间站，可以主动培育多样化微生物群落，更好模拟人类在地球上接触到的天然微生物环境。)”可知，Salido建议复刻地球天然微生物环境。 D Over the past several decades, the technology industry has promised high wages and strong job security. However, AI is already taking over entry-level tech jobs. Major tech companies have laid off thousands of workers in recent years. The recent uncertainty in the labor market has called the value of tech jobs, and tech skills, into question. Despite these challenges, I still believe that pursuing a degree in computer science and related disciplines is a great choice students can make. Computer science is not just about learning to code; the core is thinking creatively to solve complex problems. When I got my degree in computer engineering in 1995, the World Wide Web was just starting, and there were no large-scale search engines. But I learned the foundations of computer science and was trained in problem solving. That training has enabled me to work in many fields over the last 20 years, including work on Google Search. A misconception about computer science is that AI will impact software development more than other fields. In fact, AI will reshape the work of every knowledge worker. Software development is simply the most immediate and natural testing ground, given its digital nature. What AI can do really well is automate the mechanical aspects of the job. In software development, if we provide a precise description, AI can write code for us. However, we are still far away from the day when AI will decide what software systems need to be built and which products should be developed. Therefore, this will not reduce the need for software developers. We still need qualified people who can think critically and solve hard problems and we continue to need them for the foreseeable future. Every knowledge worker will eventually need to work alongside AI. Students should not base what they decide to study on the fear of AI disruption. They should pursue areas they are passionate about — those that spark creativity and allow them to positively impact society. 32. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By using quotations. B. By providing statistics. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 33. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning his experience in paragraph 2? A. The achievement of his work. B. The requirement of a Google job. C. The nature of computer science. D. The application of learning coding. 34. What can AI do in software development? A. It develops products people want. B. It decides which systems to build. C. It reduces software developers’ need. D. It generates code from instructions. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Focus on Passion Instead of Fear B. Keep Learning Tech in an AI World C. Coding Jobs Face Great Uncertainty D. Computer Science Builds Problem Solvers 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】文章对比科技行业从前与当下就业形势，论证人工智能时代仍值得学习计算机相关专业。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Over the past several decades, the technology industry has promised high wages and strong job security. However, AI is already taking over entry-level tech jobs. Major tech companies have laid off thousands of workers in recent years.(过去几十年，科技行业承诺高薪稳定工作；然而人工智能正取代初级技术岗位，各大科技公司近年大规模裁员。)”可知，作者将过去科技行业的优势和如今就业不稳定现状进行对比，以此引出话题。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Computer science is not just about learning to code; the core is thinking creatively to solve complex problems.(计算机科学不只是学编程，核心是创造性思考、解决复杂问题。)”可知，作者讲述自己早年求学、跨领域从业的亲身经历，是为了解释计算机科学的本质。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In software development, if we provide a precise description, AI can write code for us.(软件开发中，只要给出精准描述，人工智能就能为我们编写代码。)”可知，人工智能可以依据指令生成代码。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，文章先提出AI冲击技术岗位的困境，随后多角度论证计算机专业核心能力难以被替代，主张学生不必畏惧AI变革，依然可以选择计算机相关专业学习。B选项“在人工智能时代坚持学习技术”能概括文章主旨，为最佳标题。 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。 The Glorious Labor of Taking Care of a Vast Grassland I was giving a talk about the invasive (入侵) weeds in our grassland. I was describing the hot, sweaty work of maintaining some 30 acres. Then came a question from the audience. “Why do you do it?” a man asked. His sharp question made me pause for thought. ___36___ But the man persisted. “Why not just let the grassland become whatever it wants to be? And you could sit under that big maple and sip cold wine instead?” Why do I willfully choose hard labor? If I didn’t do this work in the grassland, it would turn into brushland, which is a natural progression. ___37___ I could walk or bike or swim in a favorite wilderness lake and spend whole afternoons reading in a beach chair. Yet what makes those easy pleasures truly meaningful is the sense of accomplishment from hard work. My parents, who had barely survived unimaginably tough labor and hardship, raised me to avoid physical discomfort. ___38___ Laboring in the elements was at the top of their list of things to be avoided. But I enjoyed physical outdoor activities. Physical labor is a celebration of our body’s capabilities. We’ve evolved to move and make efforts. Our bodies need constant physical activity. ___39___ Working slowly lets me notice birds and bees playing. When I am lost in these small discoveries, I find peace in these quiet moments. The tiredness from labor is a “good” tiredness. I gave a meager (敷衍的) answer to the man with the difficult question. ___40___ Instead, this is what I could have said — An easy life may not add up to happiness. A. I thought I had explained it in my talk. B. The grassland is a source of happiness. C. Surely there are less tiring ways to stay fit. D. They hoped I could take more outdoor activities. E. Besides physical need, there is pleasure in the work. F. They wanted me to live easily with brains, not strength. G. I just mentioned the value of labor when maintaining a grassland. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. F 39. E 40. G 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者为何选择在草原上从事辛苦的体力劳动，指出劳动带来的成就感让轻松的快乐更有意义，同时劳动本身也是对身体能力的庆祝，并带来了内心的平静。 【36题详解】 上文“Then came a question from the audience. “Why do you do it?” a man asked. His sharp question made me pause for thought.(随后，观众中有人提出了一个问题。“你为什么要这么做？”一位男士问道。他尖锐的问题让我停下来思考)”提到男子的问题让作者思考，A选项“I thought I had explained it in my talk.(我认为我在演讲中已经解释过了)”承接上文，给出作者思索后得出的结论：认为自己已经解释过了。同时，这一结论与下一段中“But the man persisted. “Why not just let the grassland become whatever it wants to be? And you could sit under that big maple and sip cold wine instead?”(但那位男士坚持追问。“为什么不干脆让草地自由生长成它本来的样子呢？那样你就能坐在那棵大枫树下，喝着冰镇葡萄酒了。”)”形成转折关系，上下文逻辑连贯。 【37题详解】 下文“I could walk or bike or swim in a favorite wilderness lake and spend whole afternoons reading in a beach chair.(我可以步行、骑自行车或在我喜欢的荒野湖泊中游泳并坐在沙滩椅上花整个下午阅读)”列举了其他轻松愉快的休闲活动。C选项“Surely there are less tiring ways to stay fit.(当然有更不那么累的方式来保持健康)”引出下文，指出除了辛苦劳作外，有更轻松的方式来保持身心健康，下文具体列举了这些替代方式，与C选项中的“less tiring ways”形成呼应，上下文语义连贯。 【38题详解】 上文“My parents, who had barely survived unimaginably tough labor and hardship, raised me to avoid physical discomfort.(我的父母几乎没能挺过难以想象的艰苦劳动和磨难，他们养育我要避免身体上的不适)”指出了父母希望作者避免体力劳动，F选项“They wanted me to live easily with brains, not strength.(他们希望我靠头脑轻松地生活，而不是靠体力)”承接上文，进一步解释了父母对作者的期望——靠脑力而非体力生活；下文“Laboring in the elements was at the top of their list of things to be avoided.(冒着风雨劳作是他们最想要避免的事情之一)”与F选项共同说明父母的态度，上下文语义连贯。 【39题详解】 上文“Our bodies need constant physical activity.(我们的身体需要持续的体力活动)”指出了身体对活动的需求，E选项“Besides physical need, there is pleasure in the work.(除了身体需要，工作中还有乐趣)”与上文构成递进关系，指出劳动的价值不仅在于满足身体需求，还在于工作本身的乐趣；下文“Working slowly lets me notice birds and bees playing. When I am lost in these small discoveries, I find peace in these quiet moments.(慢慢工作让我注意到鸟儿和蜜蜂在嬉戏。当我沉浸在这些小小的发现中时，我在这宁静的时刻找到了平静)”具体描述了劳动中的愉悦体验，与E选项中的“pleasure”直接呼应，上下文逻辑连贯。 【40题详解】 上文“I gave a meager (敷衍的) answer to the man with the difficult question.(我给那个提出难题的人一个敷衍的回答)”指出作者当时在现场没有给出令人满意的回答，G选项“I just mentioned the value of labor when maintaining a grassland.(我仅仅提到了维护草原时劳动的价值)”承接上文，具体说明了作者当时是如何敷衍回答的——只是泛泛提及劳动的价值，而没有深入阐述；下文“Instead, this is what I could have said — An easy life may not add up to happiness.(相反，这是我本可以说的——安逸的生活不一定等于幸福)”中的“Instead”与G选项构成对比，指出作者本应更深入地表达自己对劳动与幸福之间关系的理解，上下文语义连贯。 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。 I had high hopes of breaking four hours at my second New York City Marathon in 2021.

A fleet of over 200 ships navigated the blue seas, with almost 28,000 people on board, ___56___ was a splendid scene. According to some records, the largest ships were over 140 metres in length, ___57___ (demonstrate) the advanced technology and special skills used in constructing ships. Between 1405 and 1433, on behalf of the Ming Dynasty, Zheng He made a total of seven voyages. His ships ___58___ (load) with china, silk, tea and other treasures as gifts for foreign rulers, and the fleet paid friendly visits ___59___ more than 30 countries and regions. As they sailed, the navigators took compass readings, kept logs of their voyages ___60___ charted the coast. Later the detailed maps became Zheng He’s Navigation Map. Zheng He’s seven voyages had ___61___ far-reaching impact on China and its neighbors. His efforts helped develop and strengthen harmonious relations with these countries and regions, exposing foreign people to Chinese culture, and allowing the Chinese ___62___ (understand) overseas lands profoundly. For many years, some historians dismissed the records of these voyages as ___63___ (legend). The final proof came when an enormous shipyard was discovered in Nanjing, where the fleet had been built. Zheng He’s accomplishments are now ___64___ (wide) acknowledged, and he is remembered as one of China’s most ____65____ (influence) explorers. 【答案】56. which 57. demonstrating 58. were loaded 59. to 60. and 61. a 62. to understand 63. legends 64. widely 65. influential 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍了中国伟大航海家郑和的航海事迹。讲述了他首次航海的规模，七次航海的时间、目的及带来的影响，还提及航海记录曾被质疑，最终因造船厂的发现得以证实，郑和的成就如今也得到广泛认可。 【56题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：一支由200多艘船组成的舰队在蓝色的海洋上航行，船上有近28000人，场面十分壮观。此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词是前面整个句子“A fleet of over 200 ships navigated the blue seas, with almost 28,000 people on board”，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which。 【57题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：根据一些记录，最大的船长度超过140米，展示了建造船舶时使用的先进技术和特殊技能。分析句子结构，此处为非谓语动词作状语，demonstrate与“最大的船长度超过140米”这件事之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词demonstrating。 【58题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：他的船上装载着瓷器、丝绸、茶叶和其他珍宝，作为送给外国统治者的礼物，舰队对30多个国家和地区进行了友好访问。根据上下文可知，此处描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时，且ships与load之间是被动关系，所以用一般过去时的被动语态，其结构为“was/were +过去分词”，主语ships是复数，所以用were loaded。 【59题详解】 考查固定搭配。句意：他的船上装载着瓷器、丝绸、茶叶和其他珍宝，作为送给外国统治者的礼物，舰队对30多个国家和地区进行了友好访问。pay a visit to...为固定搭配，意为“对……进行访问”，所以此处用介词to。 【60题详解】 考查连词。句意：在航行过程中，航海者们读取指南针读数，记录航行日志并绘制海岸地图。“took compass readings”“kept logs of their voyages”和“charted the coast”是并列关系，所以用and连接。 【61题详解】 考查冠词。句意：郑和的七次航行对中国及其邻国产生了深远的影响。have an/ a...impact on...为固定短语，意为“对……有……影响”，far-reaching是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。 【62题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：他的努力有助于发展和加强与这些国家和地区的和谐关系，让外国人民接触到中国文化，也让中国人深刻了解海外土地。allow sb. to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“允许某人做某事”，所以此处用动词不定式to understand。 【63题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：多年来，一些历史学家认为这些航行记录是传说。legend作“传说”讲时是可数名词，根据语境，此处应用复数形式legends。 【64题详解】 考查副词。句意：郑和的成就现在得到了广泛认可，他被认为是中国最有影响力的探险家之一。此处修饰动词acknowledged，应用副词widely，意为“广泛地”。 【65题详解】 考查形容词。句意：郑和的成就现在得到了广泛认可，他被认为是中国最有影响力的探险家之一。此处修饰名词explorers，应用形容词influential，意为“有影响力的”。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 假定你是校英文报记者李华，上周你校师生探访本地知名古村落，你发现文化遗产保护形势严峻。请你写一份倡议书，内容包括： (1)文化遗产遭受的破坏； (2)保护措施及倡议。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear fellow students, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】参考范文： Dear fellow students, A recent visit to an ancient village revealed that our cultural heritage is under severe threat.

Eleven-year-old Timmy Carter walked home from school, his hands tucked (塞进) into the pockets of his navy blue jacket. It was an ordinary day — until he spotted something lying on the pavement near the entrance of a small bakery. Timmy stopped in his tracks. It was a brown leather wallet. He bent down and picked it up, his heart pounding with curiosity. Looking around, he saw no one in sight. The bakery owner was busy serving a customer, and the pedestrians hurried along, lost in their world. Timmy hesitated before opening the wallet. Inside, there were new pound notes, neatly tucked into a compartment. He had never held so much money in his hands before. His eyes widened at the sight of a bank card, a few receipts, and a driving licence with the name “Mr. Edward Thompson.” Timmy’s fingers tightened around the wallet. His mind raced. Should I keep it? The thought flashed for just a second. After all, no one had seen him pick it up. His mother had recently mentioned how tight money had been, and his favorite football boots were on sale at the local sports shop. No one would ever know... But then, another thought surfaced. What if this belonged to someone who needed it? His father always said, “Doing the right thing is easy to talk about but hard to do when temptation (诱惑) is in front of you.” Timmy stood there, unsure of his next move. Just then, his best friend Jake rode up on his bicycle. “Hey, Tim! What’s that?” Timmy hesitated, then held up the wallet. “I found it near the bakery. It’s got money and a bank card inside.” Jake shrugged. “Well, you could keep it. Finders keepers, right?” 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。 Timmy was faced with a difficult choice. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Timmy and Jake knocked at the door, an old man appeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： Timmy was faced with a difficult choice. After all, the cash was a strong temptation to get his family through tight days. However, his father’s words about integrity echoed in his ears. He shook his head firmly, telling Jake keeping the wallet was wrong, and that they should return it to the owner. Jake was soon persuaded and agreed to accompany Timmy. They checked the address on the driving licence and found it was just a few blocks away. Determined, they headed for Mr. Thompson’s home together. When Timmy and Jake knocked at the door, an old man appeared. It was Mr. Edward Thompson, who looked worried and anxious. Timmy held out the wallet, explaining that he had found it outside the bakery. Upon seeing his lost wallet, Mr. Thompson’s face lit up with relief and joy. After making sure all his possessions were inside, he expressed sincere gratitude, spoke highly of Timmy’s virtue and tried to reward him, yet Timmy declined it gracefully. Only then did Jake understand Timmy’s choice. Walking back, they felt proud and joyful, realizing that honesty brought them more happiness than money ever could. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了十一岁的Timmy放学路上捡到一个装有大量现金、银行卡和驾照的钱包。面对改善家庭拮据状况、购买心仪球鞋的巨大诱惑，他内心动摇。在好友“拾者自得”的劝说下，Timmy陷入两难，但谨记父亲教诲，坚守诚信底线，最终决定将钱包归还给失主。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由首句内容可知，第一段描写Timmy战胜金钱诱惑，牢记父亲关于诚信的教导，拒绝好友的提议，说服好友一同前往，根据驾照上的地址前往失主家中归还钱包。 ②由首句内容可知，第二段描写失主Thompson先生正是钱包主人，失而复得满心欣喜并真诚致谢，想要酬谢被Timmy婉拒。Jake也深受触动，二人最终领悟诚信远比金钱珍贵。 2.续写线索：面临两难抉择——战胜诱惑、坚守诚信——说服好友——按地址前往失主家——登门归还钱包——失主欣喜致谢、意欲酬谢——主角婉拒——二人领悟诚信的价值 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①说服：persuade / convince ②归还：return / give back 情绪类 ①坚定地：firmly/steadily ②快乐：happiness/pleasure 【点睛】[高分句型1] He shook his head firmly, telling Jake keeping the wallet was wrong, and that they should return it to the owner.（运用现在分词作伴随状语） [高分句型2] Only then did Jake understand Timmy’s choice.（运用only+状语置于句首，部分倒装句式） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $2026年上学期期末教学质量监测高二英语第一部分听力做题时，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卡上。现在是听力试音时间。Hello, international friends club, can I help you?

B For those who have forgotten how to switch off and reconnect with themselves, Deborah Alma may have just what the doctor ordered. Deborah is the founder of the Poetry Pharmacy, located in an old ironworks in the heart of Shropshire. This bookshop aims to ease worry with words, allowing visitors to book poetry consultations for tailored advice or pick up a quick fix off the shelves. Last year, a second Poetry Pharmacy opened inside LUSH on London’s Oxford Street, seeking to bring a little calm to the capital. Even before she had two successful “practices” under her belt, Deborah was very aware of the power of poetry. She used the medium as a tool to help those living with dementia (痴呆), working in care homes for years. “I would sit with people and talk to them, listen to them,” she says. “We would read poetry. I would see a change happen as they were taken to a magical place.” “The ambulance” was Deborah’s first exploration into poetic medicine. After spotting a special vehicle on eBay, an idea came to her — she would bring poetry prescriptions (处方) directly to people. And so, Deborah travelled the country in her 1950s ambulance, offering consultations and guidance to those in need. After nearly a decade of mobile medicine, Deborah parked up her practice for the stability of a physical store in Shropshire. With its original iron shelving and warm wooden counter, Deborah knew that the Bishop’s Castle location was the perfect place to set up shop. This would be the world’s first walk-in poetry pharmacy. Since opening in 2019, the Pharmacy has gone from strength to strength, being awarded Regional Independent Bookshop of the Year from the British Book Awards in 2024. “It’s really important not to ask people about their problems,” Deborah says. “We ask about that person’s reading habits, how they relax, who they are in their best state. It should be a pleasure to answer these questions.” 24. Why did Deborah set up the Poetry Pharmacy? A. To treat serious diseases. B. To gain nationwide fame. C. To bring people comfort. D. To train professional poets. 25. How did Deborah help people with dementia in care homes? A. She taught them to write poems. B. She read poetry to accompany them. C. She offered them medical treatment. D. She took them to visit magical places. 26. What does the underlined phrase “parked up her practice” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Stopped driving her ambulance. B. Improved her poetry service quality. C. Ended her mobile poetry service. D. Found a perfect location for her shop. 27. What does Deborah’s practice show? A. Words are the best medicine. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Good health is the best wealth. D. Actions speak louder than words. C One would think that the astronauts’ living spaces should be perfectly clean, but it turns out that creating a “dirtier” environment with more microorganisms from Earth may boost their health. That’s what recent research in Cell suggests after showing the International Space Station (ISS) is overly sterile (无菌的). The sterile nature of the station has led to a low diversity of microorganisms, which could be contributing to immune system disorders, skin discomfort, and other inflammatory (炎症性的) conditions in astronauts. According to the researchers, the results indicate that the most common health problems observed in space could be reduced by introducing certain environmental microorganisms from Earth onto the ISS. To learn more about the microbial life living and interacting in space, the researchers called on astronauts to take 803 samples of the different surfaces on the ISS. Once collected and sent to Earth, the samples were analyzed to determine the presence of bacterial species and chemicals. Notably, however, absent in the ISS were the microorganisms from natural environments that strengthen human health, allowing us to grow our own hardy microorganisms. Contact with these microorganisms, which exist in the water and soil on Earth, supports the beneficial bacteria that live inside our bodies, helping us digest food and fight diseases. The researchers claim that introducing microorganisms from Earth could potentially boost the microbial community on the ISS without posing any health risks to astronauts. “Future-built environments, including space stations, could benefit from intentionally developing diverse microbial communities that better imitate the natural microbial exposures experienced on Earth,” said Rodolfo Salido, a study author and a researcher from the University of California San Diego. He also stressed that if we really want life to thrive outside Earth, we can’t just launch a small branch of the tree of life into space. We need to start thinking about what other beneficial companions we should be sending with these astronauts to help them develop ecosystems that will be sustainable and beneficial for all. 28. What can we learn from the study in paragraph 1? A. Overclean space stations harm astronaut health. B. Diverse microorganisms lead to serious illnesses. C. Dirty environments strengthen the immune system. D. Direct skin discomfort results from microorganisms. 29. What did the researchers do to conduct the study? A. They studied samples from ISS. B. They observed astronauts on ISS. C. They introduced samples on ISS. D. They cultured microorganisms from ISS. 30. What can be inferred about microorganisms in paragraph 3? A. Microorganisms on Earth kill bacteria. B. Microorganisms on Earth benefit human health. C. Microorganisms on the ISS increase health risks. D. Microorganisms on the ISS improve human health. 31. What did Salido suggest about future-built environment? A. Increase clean surfaces in space stations. B. Launch more branches of trees into space. C. Recreate Earth’s natural microbial conditions. D. Send more companions with astronauts in space. D Over the past several decades, the technology industry has promised high wages and strong job security. However, AI is already taking over entry-level tech jobs. Major tech companies have laid off thousands of workers in recent years. The recent uncertainty in the labor market has called the value of tech jobs, and tech skills, into question. Despite these challenges, I still believe that pursuing a degree in computer science and related disciplines is a great choice students can make. Computer science is not just about learning to code; the core is thinking creatively to solve complex problems. When I got my degree in computer engineering in 1995, the World Wide Web was just starting, and there were no large-scale search engines. But I learned the foundations of computer science and was trained in problem solving. That training has enabled me to work in many fields over the last 20 years, including work on Google Search. A misconception about computer science is that AI will impact software development more than other fields. In fact, AI will reshape the work of every knowledge worker. Software development is simply the most immediate and natural testing ground, given its digital nature. What AI can do really well is automate the mechanical aspects of the job. In software development, if we provide a precise description, AI can write code for us. However, we are still far away from the day when AI will decide what software systems need to be built and which products should be developed. Therefore, this will not reduce the need for software developers. We still need qualified people who can think critically and solve hard problems and we continue to need them for the foreseeable future. Every knowledge worker will eventually need to work alongside AI. Students should not base what they decide to study on the fear of AI disruption. They should pursue areas they are passionate about — those that spark creativity and allow them to positively impact society. 32. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By using quotations. B. By providing statistics. C. By giving a definition. D. By making a comparison. 33. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning his experience in paragraph 2? A. The achievement of his work. B. The requirement of a Google job. C. The nature of computer science. D. The application of learning coding. 34. What can AI do in software development? A. It develops products people want. B. It decides which systems to build. C. It reduces software developers’ need. D. It generates code from instructions. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Focus on Passion Instead of Fear B. Keep Learning Tech in an AI World C. Coding Jobs Face Great Uncertainty D. Computer Science Builds Problem Solvers 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。 The Glorious Labor of Taking Care of a Vast Grassland I was giving a talk about the invasive (入侵) weeds in our grassland. I was describing the hot, sweaty work of maintaining some 30 acres. Then came a question from the audience. “Why do you do it?” a man asked. His sharp question made me pause for thought. ___36___ But the man persisted. “Why not just let the grassland become whatever it wants to be? And you could sit under that big maple and sip cold wine instead?” Why do I willfully choose hard labor? If I didn’t do this work in the grassland, it would turn into brushland, which is a natural progression. ___37___ I could walk or bike or swim in a favorite wilderness lake and spend whole afternoons reading in a beach chair. Yet what makes those easy pleasures truly meaningful is the sense of accomplishment from hard work. My parents, who had barely survived unimaginably tough labor and hardship, raised me to avoid physical discomfort. ___38___ Laboring in the elements was at the top of their list of things to be avoided. But I enjoyed physical outdoor activities. Physical labor is a celebration of our body’s capabilities. We’ve evolved to move and make efforts. Our bodies need constant physical activity. ___39___ Working slowly lets me notice birds and bees playing. When I am lost in these small discoveries, I find peace in these quiet moments. The tiredness from labor is a “good” tiredness. I gave a meager (敷衍的) answer to the man with the difficult question. ___40___ Instead, this is what I could have said — An easy life may not add up to happiness. A. I thought I had explained it in my talk. B. The grassland is a source of happiness. C. Surely there are less tiring ways to stay fit. D. They hoped I could take more outdoor activities. E. Besides physical need, there is pleasure in the work. F. They wanted me to live easily with brains, not strength. G. I just mentioned the value of labor when maintaining a grassland. 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。 I had high hopes of breaking four hours at my second New York City Marathon in 2021.

Eleven-year-old Timmy Carter walked home from school, his hands tucked (塞进) into the pockets of his navy blue jacket. It was an ordinary day — until he spotted something lying on the pavement near the entrance of a small bakery. Timmy stopped in his tracks. It was a brown leather wallet. He bent down and picked it up, his heart pounding with curiosity. Looking around, he saw no one in sight. The bakery owner was busy serving a customer, and the pedestrians hurried along, lost in their world. Timmy hesitated before opening the wallet. Inside, there were new pound notes, neatly tucked into a compartment. He had never held so much money in his hands before. His eyes widened at the sight of a bank card, a few receipts, and a driving licence with the name “Mr. Edward Thompson.” Timmy’s fingers tightened around the wallet. His mind raced. Should I keep it? The thought flashed for just a second. After all, no one had seen him pick it up. His mother had recently mentioned how tight money had been, and his favorite football boots were on sale at the local sports shop. No one would ever know... But then, another thought surfaced. What if this belonged to someone who needed it? His father always said, “Doing the right thing is easy to talk about but hard to do when temptation (诱惑) is in front of you.” Timmy stood there, unsure of his next move. Just then, his best friend Jake rode up on his bicycle. “Hey, Tim! What’s that?” Timmy hesitated, then held up the wallet. “I found it near the bakery. It’s got money and a bank card inside.” Jake shrugged. “Well, you could keep it. Finders keepers, right?” 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。 Timmy was faced with a difficult choice. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When Timmy and Jake knocked at the door, an old man appeared. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
