B When I was first told Mom had dementia, I could not accept that her condition was as severe as the doctor said. I saw unmistakable signs of cognitive (认知的) decline, but I still didn’t trust the assessments. I decided to restore her health with nutrition, medication and puzzles. It was months later that I finally acknowledged the truth. As I took care of her, I had many questions. I turned for answers to social media forums for dementia caregivers. I found many people facing the same difficulties. Each post would get hundreds of replies offering advice and support. The problems addressed in these forums were not limited to the needs of the loved ones. As a caregiver, I have experienced symptoms myself, ignoring my own needs, bursting into loud sobs when talking to the doctor, not wanting to meet people. Fear of what I will do with my life consumes me when I am no longer caring for my mother. For all its costs and troubles, caring for my mother has been a source of fulfillment. I spend nearly every hour of the day or night at her side. Ever since she came home from the hospital, she has called me Annayya, dear older brother. For some time, I would try to remind her I was not her brother, but she persisted. Once I asked her why, and she replied that it made her heart filled with contentment to utter that word. When she does, I love to hear it. I know she is calling me her protector. It is like going back in time, but with the roles reversed. My mother now has a daughter who chose never to have children. Last night I asked her, “Who am I to you?” She often suspects a trick when questioned like that. “From a sociological point of view, you are my husband’s daughter,” she said. “What about the scientific point of view?” I asked. “You are my mother,” she insisted. 4. How did the author first respond to her mother’s illness? A. Trying to deal with it herself. B. Following medical advice. C. Accepting the reality slowly. D. Seeking online solutions. 5. What is the major challenge of caregiving? A. Broken family bond. B. Heavy physical labor. C. Hidden emotional cost. D. Limited medical resources. 6. Why did the mother insist on calling the author “Annayya”? A. To seek satisfaction and security. B. To recall her long-lost childhood. C. To express a desire for better caregiving. D. To show recovery from cognitive decline. 7. What can we learn from the story? A. Patience is the key to care. B. Love can change our roles. C. Memory is not everything. D. Truth is what matters most. C Litter not only makes our streets untidy, but also poses a risk to wildlife. However, a study reports that blue tits (山雀) are lining their nests with cigarette butts, which may protect them from parasitic (寄生虫的) infections. In the wild, blue tits pick sweet-smelling plants and bring them back to their nests to drive away parasites. In cities, they collect discarded cigarette butts. Scientists wondered whether it was just an adaptation to the urban jungle or whether these butts acted as a chemical protection similar to plants. To find out why, they studied 33 blue tit families in city parks and forests, dividing nests into three groups. The first was the control group, where nests were left natural, but researchers added two unsmoked cigarette filters (滤嘴). In the second group, researchers added two smoked cigarette filters to the nest to copy what urban birds do. For the third group, the scientists replaced the natural nest with a lab-cleaned nest made of moss and cotton. After 13 days, baby birds in each of these nests were given health checks. Their wing lengths and blood samples were examined for signs of illness or blood loss. The baby birds in both the cigarette butt nests and the artificial germ-free nests had improved physiological condition and reduced parasite-related blood loss. When counting the bugs, there were more parasites in the natural control nests and hardly any in the artificial nests. In nests with cigarette butts, the number of blowfly larvae, a common parasite, appeared lower, suggesting that nicotine in the butts could be acting as an insecticide, driving away the pests. “Our study indicates that cigarette butts may be used by urban blue tits as an opportunistic adaptive strategy, copying the function of sweet-smelling plant materials in parasite control and potentially contributing positively to baby bird welfare,” researchers commented in their paper. While this is potentially good news, the team highlights a concern. Butts also contain toxic chemicals, and it’s unknown at this stage whether they could affect bird health later in life. 8. Why does the author mention blue tits’ using sweet-smelling plants? A. To show city life harms blue tits. B. To explain their nest-building in forests. C. To prove plants are better than cigarette butts. D. To explain why they collect cigarette butts in cities. 9. Why were the nests of the three groups treated differently? A. To study blue tits’ preference for nest materials. B. To compare the effects on baby birds’ health. C. To set a control group for bird disease research. D. To see if blue tits prefer smoked or unsmoked filters. 10. What can be inferred about blue tits’ use of cigarette butts? A. It reflects their adaptation to urban life. B. It is completely safe for their health. C. It shows pollution can benefit them. D. It is their long-term survival strategy. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Blue Tits’ Nesting Behavior in Cities B. Cigarette Butts as a Natural Parasite Solution C. Blue Tits’ Nests: Artificial or Natural? D. Cigarette Butts in Nests: Help or Harm? D Every test taker will know that answering an essay question in 20 minutes takes serious brain power. Having access to AI would certainly lighten the mental load. But as a recent study by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests, that help may come at a cost. During a series of essay-writing sessions, the brain activity of students working with (as well as without) ChatGPT was measured. Generally, the AI users exhibited markedly lower neural activity in parts of the brain associated with creative functions and attention. AI-assisted students also found it much harder to provide an accurate quote from the paper that they had just produced. The finding indicates the potentially detrimental effects of AI use for creativity and learning. This research points to questions about whether the short-term gains afforded by AI may cause a long-term debt. Whether AI will leave people’s brains weak in the long term remains an open question. Researchers stress that further work is needed to establish a cause and effect link between AI use and weakened brains. The worry is that, as Dr Gerlich puts it, the preference to seek the least effortful way to solve a problem, known as “cognitive miserliness”, could create what he describes as a negative cycle. As AI-reliant individuals find it harder to think critically, their brains may become more miserly, which will lead to shifting the mental work to AI. One participant in Dr Gerlich’s study, a heavy user of AI, sighed, “I rely so much on AI that I don’t think I’d know how to solve certain problems without it.” There are ways to keep the brain fit. Dr. Gerlich recommends that, rather than asking a chatbot to generate the final desired output, one should prompt it at each step on the path to the solution. Instead of asking it “Where should I go for a sunny holiday?”, for instance, one could start by asking where it rains the least, and proceed from there. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce a study on AI. B. To define the role of AI in essays. C. To highlight the dilemma of AI usage. D. To analyze the mental load of testing. 13. What did the study find about the AI-assisted students? A. Their concentration was lost. B. Their essay-writing ability dropped. C. They show less brain engagement. D. They show long-term memory damage. 14. What does the underlined phrase “cognitive miserliness” refer to? A. A habit of over-relying on data. B. A lack of critical thinking ability. C. A tendency to minimize mental effort. D. A refusal to engage in complex tasks. 15. What does Dr. Gerlich suggest doing? A. Employing AI for final outputs. B. Avoiding AI use for holiday plans. C. Writing essays without AI support. D. Balancing AI with human guidance. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 I once thought procrastination (拖延) was an unbreakable bad habit rooted in lack of willpower. ____16____. When our lives are busy — whether personally or professionally — stress can overwhelm our brains, making it hard to focus and be productive when we sit down to work. The key to breaking the habit of procrastination is to understand the following three parts of any habit. We can address each part step by step to overcome this habit effectively. Identify the Trigger Every habit starts with a trigger. For procrastination, the trigger is usually stress. Take a moment to recognize the stressors in your life. ____17____. Once you have identified the trigger, you can work on managing your stress levels. For example, if your homework stresses you out, try breaking it into smaller and easier parts. ____18____ Procrastination is a pattern that we repeat, and it can be challenging to break. However, using the science of habits, we can shift our patterns. The 5-4-3-2-1 technique is a simple yet effective way to interrupt the habit of avoiding work. When you feel yourself hesitating, count down from five to one, and then start working for just five minutes. This small action wakes up the part of your brain responsible for focus and helps you get started. Focus on the Reward of Relief Procrastination provides temporary relief from stress, but it ultimately leads to more stress and anxiety. ____19____. You tend to feel more in control of your life and less overwhelmed. Try linking small rewards to progress, like a short break after 30 minutes of studying. Over time, your brain will learn that starting feels better than avoiding. Remember, you are not a procrastinator; you have a habit of procrastinating. ____20____. With the right tools and techniques, you can break this habit and achieve your goals. A. Change the pattern B. Follow the countdown technique C. It’s important to find ways to manage stress in your daily life D. Interrupt the response to procrastination and control your actions E. But after learning more about it, I realized it is a form of stress relief F. By breaking the habit, you will experience the reward of a sense of ease G. They could be difficult conversations, deadlines, or even personal issues 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分37.5分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Junyi Liu, an owner of a gas station, was working in Comox one holiday weekend.

Every summer, the most exciting event for local teenagers was biking to the mountain’s top — a steep, rocky trail that scared even experienced riders, not to mention beginners. Mia had a new and shiny mountain bike, but she had never dared to try this difficult climb. Many times, she stood at the start of the trail, watching her friends ride up quickly and cheering for them. However, deep in her heart, she felt ashamed: she was afraid of falling, afraid of being stuck halfway, and most of all, afraid that she was not strong enough to finish it. She had long thought that she could never reach the top. One July morning, her best friend Lila came to her door, looking determined. “I’m going up the mountain today,” she said calmly. “I planned to go alone, but you can join me if you want.” Mia hesitated, feeling scared in her heart. But Lila’s strong confidence gave her a little courage, and she nodded slowly, deciding to try something she had never done before. They started when the first sunlight rose in the sky. The first mile was easy, with smooth dirt roads and gentle slopes, so Mia felt relaxed. But as they went on, the trail became much steeper. Loose rocks rolled under their bike tires, and sharp turns made it hard to keep balance. When they were halfway up, she suddenly skidded and had to stop, breathing heavily and her heart beating fast. “I can’t do this,” Mia whispered, her voice shaking as she thought about going back. She felt a tight feeling in her throat. When she looked down, the town below was very small; when she looked up, the top of the mountain was still hidden in thick trees, seeming impossible to reach. Lila didn’t push her or argue — she just stood next to her, smiling softly, letting her think quietly. 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。 Mia took a deep breath and decided to fight against fear. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They made it to the top and looked around. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025至2026学年第二学期高二英语期末练习 第一部分 听力（共15小题，每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 听下面5段对话或独白，每段录音后有几个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。每段对话或独白读两遍。 听第1段材料，回答第1至3题。 1.

I decided to restore her health with nutrition, medication and puzzles.(当第一次得知母亲患上痴呆症时，我无法接受她的病情像医生说的那样严重。我看到明显认知衰退迹象，但依旧不信任诊断结果，决定通过营养、药物、益智谜题自己调理恢复母亲健康。)”可知，作者最初打算依靠自己独自处理母亲的病症。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“As a caregiver, I have experienced symptoms myself, ignoring my own needs, bursting into loud sobs when talking to the doctor, not wanting to meet people. Fear of what I will do with my life consumes me when I am no longer caring for my mother.(作为一名照料者，我自身也出现了诸多情绪问题：我忽略自身需求，和医生沟通时会失声痛哭，不愿与人交往。一想到日后不再照料母亲时自己该如何生活，内心就被无尽的惶恐裹挟。)”可知，照料亲人最大的难题是照料者潜藏的情绪消耗与心理压力。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Once I asked her why, and she replied that it made her heart filled with contentment to utter that word. When she does, I love to hear it. I know she is calling me her protector.(有一次我问她为何总这么称呼，她回答道，唤出这个称呼能让她内心满是踏实与满足。每当她这样叫我，我都十分动容，我明白她是把我当作了自己的守护者。)”可知，母亲坚持叫作者“Annayya”，是为了获得内心的满足感与被守护的安全感。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“It is like going back in time, but with the roles reversed.(时光仿佛倒流，只是角色完全互换。)”可知，曾经母亲是照顾作者的长辈，如今母亲患病认知错乱，作者化身母亲的依靠、守护者，爱意让二人的照料角色发生颠倒。 C Litter not only makes our streets untidy, but also poses a risk to wildlife. However, a study reports that blue tits (山雀) are lining their nests with cigarette butts, which may protect them from parasitic (寄生虫的) infections. In the wild, blue tits pick sweet-smelling plants and bring them back to their nests to drive away parasites. In cities, they collect discarded cigarette butts. Scientists wondered whether it was just an adaptation to the urban jungle or whether these butts acted as a chemical protection similar to plants. To find out why, they studied 33 blue tit families in city parks and forests, dividing nests into three groups. The first was the control group, where nests were left natural, but researchers added two unsmoked cigarette filters (滤嘴). In the second group, researchers added two smoked cigarette filters to the nest to copy what urban birds do. For the third group, the scientists replaced the natural nest with a lab-cleaned nest made of moss and cotton. After 13 days, baby birds in each of these nests were given health checks. Their wing lengths and blood samples were examined for signs of illness or blood loss. The baby birds in both the cigarette butt nests and the artificial germ-free nests had improved physiological condition and reduced parasite-related blood loss. When counting the bugs, there were more parasites in the natural control nests and hardly any in the artificial nests. In nests with cigarette butts, the number of blowfly larvae, a common parasite, appeared lower, suggesting that nicotine in the butts could be acting as an insecticide, driving away the pests. “Our study indicates that cigarette butts may be used by urban blue tits as an opportunistic adaptive strategy, copying the function of sweet-smelling plant materials in parasite control and potentially contributing positively to baby bird welfare,” researchers commented in their paper. While this is potentially good news, the team highlights a concern. Butts also contain toxic chemicals, and it’s unknown at this stage whether they could affect bird health later in life. 8. Why does the author mention blue tits’ using sweet-smelling plants? A. To show city life harms blue tits. B. To explain their nest-building in forests. C. To prove plants are better than cigarette butts. D. To explain why they collect cigarette butts in cities. 9. Why were the nests of the three groups treated differently? A. To study blue tits’ preference for nest materials. B. To compare the effects on baby birds’ health. C. To set a control group for bird disease research. D. To see if blue tits prefer smoked or unsmoked filters. 10. What can be inferred about blue tits’ use of cigarette butts? A. It reflects their adaptation to urban life. B. It is completely safe for their health. C. It shows pollution can benefit them. D. It is their long-term survival strategy. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Blue Tits’ Nesting Behavior in Cities B. Cigarette Butts as a Natural Parasite Solution C. Blue Tits’ Nests: Artificial or Natural? D. Cigarette Butts in Nests: Help or Harm? 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了研究发现城市山雀用烟头筑巢，尼古丁可驱虫、改善幼鸟健康，这是它们适应城市的生存方式，但烟头含毒素，长期对鸟类健康的危害尚不明确 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In the wild, blue tits pick sweet-smelling plants and bring them back to their nests to drive away parasites. In cities, they collect discarded cigarette butts. Scientists wondered whether it was just an adaptation to the urban jungle or whether these butts acted as a chemical protection similar to plants.( 在野外，蓝山雀会采摘气味芬芳的植物带回巢中，以驱赶寄生虫。而在城市环境中，它们则收集被丢弃的香烟头。科学家们开始好奇，这种行为是仅仅适应城市丛林环境的一种适应性反应，还是这些香烟头起到了类似植物的化学防护作用？)”可知，作者先介绍野外蓝山雀用芳香植物驱虫的习性，是为了类比说明：城市里的蓝山雀收集烟头，本质是用烟头发挥和芳香植物类似的化学驱虫作用，以此解释它们收集烟头的原因。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“To find out why, they studied 33 blue tit families in city parks and forests, dividing nests into three groups. The first was the control group, where nests were left natural, but researchers added two unsmoked cigarette filters (滤嘴). In the second group, researchers added two smoked cigarette filters to the nest to copy what urban birds do. For the third group, the scientists replaced the natural nest with a lab-cleaned nest made of moss and cotton.( 为了解原因，研究人员在城市公园和森林中观察了33个蓝山雀家庭，并将巢穴分为三组：第一组为对照组，巢穴保持自然状态，但研究人员在其中添加了两个未吸食过的香烟滤嘴；第二组在巢中放入两个已吸食过的香烟滤嘴，模拟城市鸟类的行为；第三组则用实验室清洁过的苔藓和棉絮制作巢穴，取代原有的自然巢。)”以及第四段中“After 13 days, baby birds in each of these nests were given health checks. Their wing lengths and blood samples were examined for signs of illness or blood loss.( 13天后，研究人员对每组巢中的幼鸟进行了健康检查，测量其翅膀长度，并采集血液样本，检测是否有疾病或出血迹象。)”可知，设置三组不同处理的鸟巢，是为了通过对照实验，对比不同巢材（天然巢、含烟头巢、无菌人工巢）对幼鸟健康状态、寄生虫感染情况的影响。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Scientists wondered whether it was just an adaptation to the urban jungle or whether these butts acted as a chemical protection similar to plants.( 科学家们开始好奇，这种行为是仅仅适应城市丛林环境的一种适应性反应，还是这些香烟头起到了类似植物的化学防护作用？)”以及最后一段中“Our study indicates that cigarette butts may be used by urban blue tits as an opportunistic adaptive strategy, copying the function of sweet-smelling plant materials in parasite control and potentially contributing positively to baby bird welfare.(我们的研究表明，城市蓝山雀可能会把烟头作为一种机会性适应策略，复制气味芬芳的植物材料在控制寄生虫方面的功能，并可能对幼鸟的福利做出积极贡献。)”可知，研究表明，蓝山雀利用烟头驱虫是城市环境下的一种适应性策略，体现了它们对城市生活的适应。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章既介绍了烟头筑巢能驱虫、改善幼鸟生理状态的积极作用，也指出了烟头含毒素、长期健康影响未知的隐患，核心是讨论“烟头对蓝山雀究竟是利是弊”，由此可知，这篇文章最好的标题是“巢里的烟头：有益还是有害？”。 D Every test taker will know that answering an essay question in 20 minutes takes serious brain power. Having access to AI would certainly lighten the mental load. But as a recent study by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests, that help may come at a cost. During a series of essay-writing sessions, the brain activity of students working with (as well as without) ChatGPT was measured. Generally, the AI users exhibited markedly lower neural activity in parts of the brain associated with creative functions and attention. AI-assisted students also found it much harder to provide an accurate quote from the paper that they had just produced. The finding indicates the potentially detrimental effects of AI use for creativity and learning. This research points to questions about whether the short-term gains afforded by AI may cause a long-term debt. Whether AI will leave people’s brains weak in the long term remains an open question. Researchers stress that further work is needed to establish a cause and effect link between AI use and weakened brains. The worry is that, as Dr Gerlich puts it, the preference to seek the least effortful way to solve a problem, known as “cognitive miserliness”, could create what he describes as a negative cycle. As AI-reliant individuals find it harder to think critically, their brains may become more miserly, which will lead to shifting the mental work to AI. One participant in Dr Gerlich’s study, a heavy user of AI, sighed, “I rely so much on AI that I don’t think I’d know how to solve certain problems without it.” There are ways to keep the brain fit. Dr. Gerlich recommends that, rather than asking a chatbot to generate the final desired output, one should prompt it at each step on the path to the solution. Instead of asking it “Where should I go for a sunny holiday?”, for instance, one could start by asking where it rains the least, and proceed from there. 12. What is the function of the first paragraph? A. To introduce a study on AI. B. To define the role of AI in essays. C. To highlight the dilemma of AI usage. D. To analyze the mental load of testing. 13. What did the study find about the AI-assisted students? A. Their concentration was lost. B. Their essay-writing ability dropped. C. They show less brain engagement. D. They show long-term memory damage. 14. What does the underlined phrase “cognitive miserliness” refer to? A. A habit of over-relying on data. B. A lack of critical thinking ability. C. A tendency to minimize mental effort. D. A refusal to engage in complex tasks. 15. What does Dr. Gerlich suggest doing? A. Employing AI for final outputs. B. Avoiding AI use for holiday plans. C. Writing essays without AI support. D. Balancing AI with human guidance. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讨论了AI使用对大脑创造力和学习能力的潜在负面影响，并提出了保持大脑活跃的建议。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Every test taker will know that answering an essay question in 20 minutes takes serious brain power. Having access to AI would certainly lighten the mental load. But as a recent study by researchers at Massachusetts Institute of Technology suggests, that help may come at a cost. (每个考生都知道，在20分钟内回答一道论述题需要耗费大量脑力。如果能使用人工智能，肯定会减轻认知负担。但正如麻省理工学院研究人员最近的一项研究表明，这种帮助可能会带来代价)”可知，第一段通过指出AI既有帮助又有代价，突出了AI使用的两难困境。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“During a series of essay-writing sessions, the brain activity of students working with (as well as without) ChatGPT was measured. Generally, the AI users exhibited markedly lower neural activity in parts of the brain associated with creative functions and attention. (在一系列论文写作环节中，研究人员测量了学生使用和不使用ChatGPT时的大脑活动。总体而言，人工智能使用者在与创造力和注意力相关的大脑区域中，其神经活动明显较低)”可知，AI辅助的学生在与创造力和注意力相关的大脑区域中神经活动明显较低，表现出较少的大脑参与度。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The worry is that, as Dr Gerlich puts it, the preference to seek the least effortful way to solve a problem, known as “cognitive miserliness”, could create what he describes as a negative cycle. (令人担忧的是，正如格里希博士所言，人们倾向于寻求最省力的方式解决问题，即所谓的“cognitive miserliness”，这可能会形成一个他描述的恶性循环。)”可知，该短语是对“the preference to seek the least effortful way to solve a problem”的解释，即倾向于寻求最省力的方式解决问题，与“A tendency to minimize mental effort.(倾向于最小化脑力付出)”意思相近。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Dr. Gerlich recommends that, rather than asking a chatbot to generate the final desired output, one should prompt it at each step on the path to the solution. (Gerlich博士建议，与其让聊天机器人直接生成最终所需结果，不如在解决问题的每一步都向它提问)”可知，Dr. Gerlich建议在解决问题时通过向AI提问来逐步推进，即在人工智能与人类指导之间找到平衡。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，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。 I once thought procrastination (拖延) was an unbreakable bad habit rooted in lack of willpower. ____16____. When our lives are busy — whether personally or professionally — stress can overwhelm our brains, making it hard to focus and be productive when we sit down to work. The key to breaking the habit of procrastination is to understand the following three parts of any habit. We can address each part step by step to overcome this habit effectively. Identify the Trigger Every habit starts with a trigger. For procrastination, the trigger is usually stress. Take a moment to recognize the stressors in your life. ____17____. Once you have identified the trigger, you can work on managing your stress levels. For example, if your homework stresses you out, try breaking it into smaller and easier parts. ____18____ Procrastination is a pattern that we repeat, and it can be challenging to break. However, using the science of habits, we can shift our patterns. The 5-4-3-2-1 technique is a simple yet effective way to interrupt the habit of avoiding work. When you feel yourself hesitating, count down from five to one, and then start working for just five minutes. This small action wakes up the part of your brain responsible for focus and helps you get started. Focus on the Reward of Relief Procrastination provides temporary relief from stress, but it ultimately leads to more stress and anxiety. ____19____. You tend to feel more in control of your life and less overwhelmed. Try linking small rewards to progress, like a short break after 30 minutes of studying. Over time, your brain will learn that starting feels better than avoiding. Remember, you are not a procrastinator; you have a habit of procrastinating. ____20____. With the right tools and techniques, you can break this habit and achieve your goals. A. Change the pattern B. Follow the countdown technique C. It’s important to find ways to manage stress in your daily life D. Interrupt the response to procrastination and control your actions E. But after learning more about it, I realized it is a form of stress relief F. By breaking the habit, you will experience the reward of a sense of ease G. They could be difficult conversations, deadlines, or even personal issues 【答案】16. E 17. G 18. A 19. F 20. D 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了拖延并非意志力不足，而是一种解压方式，并从识别压力诱因、改变行为模式、关注正向回报三方面，介绍了克服拖延的有效方法。 【16题详解】 上文“I once thought procrastination (拖延) was an unbreakable bad habit rooted in lack of willpower. (我曾经认为拖延是一种根植于缺乏意志力的不可打破的坏习惯。)”提出作者过去的观点 —— 拖延是源于意志力缺乏的坏习惯，下文“When our lives are busy — whether personally or professionally — stress can overwhelm our brains, making it hard to focus and be productive when we sit down to work. (当我们的生活繁忙——无论是个人还是职业方面——压力就会压垮我们的大脑，让我们在坐下来工作时难以集中注意力、提高效率。)”转而解释压力才是拖延的深层原因。此处需要转折句衔接旧认知与新理解。E项“But after learning more about it, I realized it is a form of stress relief. (但深入了解后，我意识到它是一种缓解压力的方式。)”承上启下，既呼应前文的旧认知，又引出后文压力与拖延的关联，逻辑连贯。 【17题详解】 上文“Take a moment to recognize the stressors in your life. (请花一点时间思考生活中哪些事情让你感到压力。)”建议读者识别生活中的压力源，下文“Once you have identified the trigger, you can work on managing your stress levels. ( 一旦你识别出触发因素，就可以着手管理自己的压力水平。)”说明识别触发点后可以着手管理压力。G项“They could be difficult conversations, deadlines, or even personal issues. (它们可能是棘手的谈话、截止日期，甚至是个人问题。)”举例说明压力源的具体类型，句中They精准指代前文的stressors（压力源），衔接自然。 【18题详解】 此处为段落小标题，需概括全段核心，且与前后两个小标题（Identify the Trigger、Focus on the Reward of Relief）结构一致，均为概括性的动宾短语。下文“Procrastination is a pattern that we repeat, and it can be challenging to break. However, using the science of habits, we can shift our patterns. The 5-4-3-2-1 technique is a simple yet effective way to interrupt the habit of avoiding work. (拖延是一种我们反复重复的模式，要改变它并不容易。然而，借助习惯科学的方法，我们可以调整这种模式。5-4-3-2-1技巧是一种简单却有效的办法，能帮助我们打断逃避工作的习惯。)”本段先点明拖延是一种可被打破的重复行为模式，再以 5-4-3-2-1 技巧为例说明如何改变模式。A 项“Change the pattern (改变模式)”精准概括段落主旨，符合文章“习惯三要素（触发 - 行为 - 奖励）”的框架。 【19题详解】 本段主题是“关注放松的回报”。上文“Procrastination provides temporary relief from stress, but it ultimately leads to more stress and anxiety. (拖延虽然能暂时缓解压力，但最终只会导致更多的压力和焦虑。)”指出拖延只能带来暂时放松，最终会加剧压力与焦虑；下文“You tend to feel more in control of your life and less overwhelmed. (你会感觉对生活更有掌控感，也不再被压得喘不过气。)”描述不拖延的状态 —— 更有掌控感、不那么疲惫。F项“By breaking the habit, you will experience the reward of a sense of ease. (改掉这个习惯，你会获得轻松感的回报。)”承接上文的弊端，引出下文的正向结果，直接呼应小标题中的 reward，衔接顺畅。 【20题详解】 上文“Remember, you are not a procrastinator; you have a habit of procrastinating. (请记住，你并不是一个拖延者，你只是有拖延的习惯。)”纠正认知，强调拖延只是习惯而非个人本性；后句鼓励读者，说明用正确方法就能改掉习惯。D项“Interrupt the response to procrastination and control your actions. (打断拖延的反应，掌控自身行为。)”点明改掉拖延的核心行动方向，既承接前文“习惯可改变”的认知，又引出后文“方法技巧”的落地路径，逻辑闭环完整。 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分37.5分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题1.5分，满分22.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Junyi Liu, an owner of a gas station, was working in Comox one holiday weekend.

D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了加油站老板刘俊毅在车辆撞上油泵引发火灾的危急时刻，不顾个人安危、徒手救出被困女司机的英勇事迹。 【21题详解】 考查名词。句意：他正在处理一些文书工作，突然注意到一辆车失控了。A. control控制；B. balance平衡；C. power权力；D. speed速度。根据下文“It was heading for the fuel pumps! Please stop! Liu prayed. It didn’t.”可知，车辆径直冲向油泵且无法停下，由此可判断车辆已失去“控制”，lose control为固定搭配，意为“失控”。 【22题详解】 考查动词（短语）。句意：汽车撞上了油泵，随之而来的是震耳欲聋的爆炸声和一团火球。A. avoided避免；B. passed经过；C. ran over碾过；D. crashed into撞上。根据下文“followed by a deafening explosion and a ball of fire”可知，爆炸和火球是车辆“撞上”油泵后的直接后果。 【23题详解】 考查动词。句意：如果火势蔓延，附近的建筑将面临巨大危险。A. faded消退；B. spread蔓延；C. started开始；D. shifted转移。根据下文“the nearby buildings would be in great danger”可知，附近建筑陷入危险的前提是火势“蔓延”扩大，而非开始或消退。 【24题详解】 考查动词。句意：他立即切断燃料供应以控制火势。A. signal发信号；B. face面对；C. contain控制，遏制；D. cease停止。根据上文“He immediately shut off the fuel supply”可知，切断燃料供应的目的是“控制”火势，防止其进一步扩散，contain the fire为常用搭配。 【25题详解】 考查名词。句意：然后，看到汽车被火焰吞噬，司机仍被困在里面，他抓起一个灭火器冲了出去。A. smoke烟；B. dust灰尘；C. flames火焰；D. ruins废墟。根据上文“followed by a deafening explosion and a ball of fire”以及下文“the fire grew out of control”可知，车辆已被“火焰”吞没，engulfed in flames意为“被火焰吞噬”。 【26题详解】 考查动词。句意：然后，看到汽车被火焰吞噬，司机仍被困在里面，他抓起一个灭火器冲了出去。A. picked捡起；B. grabbed抓起；C. pushed推；D. raised举起。根据上文“Liu was frozen with horror for a second, but he knew he had to act fast.”可知，情况紧急，刘俊毅需要迅速行动，grabbed更能体现危急时刻的紧迫性。 【27题详解】 考查动词。句意：意识到不能再浪费时间，刘俊毅扔掉灭火器，决定徒手救出司机。A. pulled拉；B. threw扔；C. took拿；D. sent送。根据上文“the safety pin (插销) was stuck”以及下文“decided to rescue the driver with his bare hands”可知，灭火器无法使用，刘俊毅只能“扔掉”它改用徒手救援。 【28题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他走近车辆，认出了司机——一位经常光顾的老年女顾客。A. new新的；B. kind善良的；C. tough坚强的；D. regular经常的，定期的。根据上文“He approached the vehicle and recognized the driver”可知，刘俊毅能认出这位老人，说明她是加油站的“常客”。 【29题详解】 考查名词。句意：尽管热浪灼人且面临再次爆炸的风险，刘俊毅还是猛地拉开了冒烟的车门。A. leak泄漏；B. collapse倒塌；C. explosion爆炸；D. spark火花。根据上文“followed by a deafening explosion”可知，车辆已经发生过一次爆炸，因此现场仍存在再次“爆炸”的危险。 【30题详解】 考查副词。句意：他温柔而坚定地将受惊的女人从座位上拉了出来。A. firmly坚定地；B. nervously紧张地；C. hurriedly匆忙地；D. freely自由地。根据上文“gently but”中的转折连词but可知，空格处应与gently形成对比，firmly既体现救援时的果断有力，又与gently构成合理的语义搭配。 【31题详解】 考查动词。句意：由于她行走困难，刘俊毅将她背在背上，在火势失控前冲向安全区域。A. held握住；B. lifted举起，背起；C. lowered放下；D. tied绑住。根据下文“onto his back”可知，刘俊毅将老人“背”在背上，lifted onto his back意为“背起”。 【32题详解】 考查名词。句意：尽管刘俊毅在火灾中失去了生意，但他并没有对司机感到怨恨。A. business生意；B. tools工具；C. goods货物；D. supplies供应品。根据上文“Junyi Liu, an owner of a gas station”以及“By the time firefighters arrived, the station was destroyed.”可知，加油站被毁意味着刘俊毅失去了他的“生意”。 【33题详解】 考查形容词。句意：尽管刘俊毅在火灾中失去了生意，但他并没有对司机感到怨悔。A. disappointed失望的；B. shocked震惊的；C. grateful感激的；D. regretful遗憾的，怨悔的。根据下文“or angry at the driver”以及“He was just glad she was safe.”可知，刘俊毅没有因为损失而“怨悔”司机，regretful在此处意为“感到遗憾的、怨悔的”，与angry构成并列关系。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：刘俊毅的无私精神打动了整个社区。A. honesty诚实；B. generosity慷慨；C. selflessness无私；D. fairness公平。根据上文“decided to rescue the driver with his bare hands”和“Despite the heat and the risk of another ________, Liu threw open the smoking door.”以及“Although Liu lost his ________in the fire, he didn’t feel ________ or angry at the driver. He was just glad she was safe.”可知，刘俊毅的加油站被毁、个人生意遭受重大损失的情况下，依然不顾再次爆炸的危险徒手救出司机，且对司机毫无怨言，只庆幸她平安无事，这种舍己为人、不计个人得失的品质正是“无私”精神的体现。 【35题详解】 考查动词。句意：正如一位消防队长所说，面对极端压力时，刘俊毅选择为生命而战，而非逃离。A. pray祈祷；B. wait等待；C. cry哭泣；D. fight战斗。根据上文“he ________ a fire extinguisher (灭火器) and rushed out”和“threw open the smoking door”以及“pulled the frightened woman out of her seat”和下文“rather than flee”可知，刘俊毅在危急时刻抓起灭火器冲出、拉开冒烟的车门、将受惊的司机拉出并背到安全区，这一系列行动都是在与危险“战斗”；消防队长的话中“rather than flee”也明确提示空格处应填与flee意义相反的词，即fight。 第二节语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空格处填入适当的词或使用括号内词语的正确形式填空。 Located in Foshan City, Guangdong Province, the restaurant — “Mo’s Chicken Hotpot” — became popular after food blogger Liu Yuxin posted the video to multiple ____36____ (platform) on April 1.

Every summer, the most exciting event for local teenagers was biking to the mountain’s top — a steep, rocky trail that scared even experienced riders, not to mention beginners. Mia had a new and shiny mountain bike, but she had never dared to try this difficult climb. Many times, she stood at the start of the trail, watching her friends ride up quickly and cheering for them. However, deep in her heart, she felt ashamed: she was afraid of falling, afraid of being stuck halfway, and most of all, afraid that she was not strong enough to finish it. She had long thought that she could never reach the top. One July morning, her best friend Lila came to her door, looking determined. “I’m going up the mountain today,” she said calmly. “I planned to go alone, but you can join me if you want.” Mia hesitated, feeling scared in her heart. But Lila’s strong confidence gave her a little courage, and she nodded slowly, deciding to try something she had never done before. They started when the first sunlight rose in the sky. The first mile was easy, with smooth dirt roads and gentle slopes, so Mia felt relaxed. But as they went on, the trail became much steeper. Loose rocks rolled under their bike tires, and sharp turns made it hard to keep balance. When they were halfway up, she suddenly skidded and had to stop, breathing heavily and her heart beating fast. “I can’t do this,” Mia whispered, her voice shaking as she thought about going back. She felt a tight feeling in her throat. When she looked down, the town below was very small; when she looked up, the top of the mountain was still hidden in thick trees, seeming impossible to reach. Lila didn’t push her or argue — she just stood next to her, smiling softly, letting her think quietly. 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。 Mia took a deep breath and decided to fight against fear. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They made it to the top and looked around. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version: Mia took a deep breath and decided to fight against fear. Instead of staring at the endless steep trail ahead, she fixed her eyes on the short road right in front of her. Lila patted her shoulder softly and told her progress mattered more than speed. Holding the handlebars tightly, Mia pedaled slowly but steadily, ignoring the shaking legs and racing heart. Every time she met rocky paths, she adjusted her posture carefully and moved forward inch by inch. Finally, without realizing it, they had reached the final turn, and the top was just ahead. They made it to the top and looked around. The beautiful view took their breath away. Below them, the small town looked like a colorful quilt, with green forests stretching far to the distance and golden sunlight shining on every part of the land. Mia got off her bike, her face full of joy and pride. She couldn’t believe she had climbed the mountain that she had been afraid of for so long. At that moment, she realized that courage was not being fearless, but deciding to move forward even when terrified. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述14岁女孩Mia虽拥有新山地车，却因恐惧从未尝试攀登松山陡峭岩径。在好友Lila的邀请下，她终于鼓起勇气出发。中途因路面险峻而想要放弃，但在Lila的默默陪伴下，Mia决定战胜恐惧，最终登顶并领悟勇气的真谛。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段应描写Mia调整策略、Lila的鼓励、Mia稳步前行、克服身体极限、最终接近终点的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段应描写山顶壮丽景色、Mia的欣喜与自豪、对长期恐惧的超越，以及“勇气非无惧，而是惧中前行”的感悟。 2. 续写线索：深呼吸决定→调整专注→好友鼓励→稳步前行→克服极限→抵达终点→环顾美景→欣喜自豪→超越恐惧→领悟勇气 3. 词汇激活 行为类： ①颤抖：shaking/trembling ②轻拍：patted/tapped 情绪类： ①恐惧的：terrified/petrified/horrified/ frightened ②喜悦：joy/delight/elation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Every time she met rocky paths, she adjusted her posture carefully and moved forward inch by inch.（运用了every time引导的时间状语从句） 【高分句型2】She couldn’t believe she had climbed the mountain which she had been afraid of for so long.（运用了which引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
