With its Bauhaus-influenced design, the mine is a great success of modern industrial architecture and a centre for modern art and culture. Come to explore Zollverein — a living museum of mining history and industrial architecture. Tokaj Wine Region, Hungary The Tokaj Wine Region is home to some of Hungary’s most beloved varieties of wine. It was listed as a World Heritage Site in 2002. Its wine-making history dates back over a thousand years. Visit the wineries, explore the underground cellars and meet the unbelievable winemakers that are caretakers of some of Europe’s oldest wine- making traditions. Wieliczka and Bochnia Royal Salt Mines, Poland The Wieliczka and Bochnia Royal Salt Mines transport you to a mysterious world of salt under the earth’s surface. There are hundreds of kilometres of galleries (展览馆) with works of art and statues (雕像) carved in salt, making for an amazing journey into the past. Take a journey through the beautiful underground views that miners built for themselves and discover its exciting history. Nord- Pas de Calais Mining Basin, France Located in the north of France, the Nord-Pas de Calais Mining Basin is a special place with a lot of culture, covering around 4,000 hectares and is full of technical and architectural treasures resulting from three centuries of coal mining. By walking in the miners’ footsteps down the shafts and hearing their stories first-hand, you can begin to understand the life and conditions of the workers. Learn about the history of the industrial revolution and how the technology and innovations developed here helped change Europe. 21.

B Live with roommates? Have friends and family around you? Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon. I experienced this when I started switching to a zero waste lifestyle five years ago, as I was living with my parents, and I continue to experience this with my husband, as he is not completely zero waste like me. I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household. Zero waste was a radical lifestyle movement a few years back. I remember showing my parents a video of Bea Johnson, sharing how cool I thought it would be to buy groceries with jars, and have so little trash! A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging. Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. I had my own bedroom, so I worked on removing things I didn’t need. Since I had my own toiletries (洗漱用品), I was able to start personalising my routine to be more sustainable. I also offered to cook every so often, so I portioned out a bit of the cupboard for my own zero waste groceries. Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire. As you make your lifestyle changes, you may find yourself wanting to speak up for yourself if others comment on what you’re doing, which can turn itself into a whole household debate. If you have individuals who are not on board, your words probably won’t do much and can often leave you feeling more discouraged. So here is my advice: Lead by action. 24. What do the underlined words “jump on that bandwagon” mean in the first paragraph? A. Share an apartment with you. B. Join you in what you’re doing. C. Transform your way of living. D. Help you to make the decision. 25. What was the attitude of the author’s father toward buying groceries with jars? A. He disapproved of it. B. He was favorable to it. C. He was tolerant of it. D. He didn’t care about it. 26. What can we infer about the author? A. She is quite good at cooking. B. She respects others’ privacy. C. She enjoys being a housewife. D. She is a determined person. 27. What is the text mainly about? A. How to get on well with other family members. B. How to have one’s own personal space at home. C. How to live a zero waste lifestyle in a household. D. How to control the budget when buying groceries. C Virtue, by definition, is the moral excellence of a person. Morally excellent people have a character made up of virtues valued as good. They are honest, respectful, courageous, forgiving and kind, for example. They do the right thing, and don’t bend to impulses, urges or desires, but act according to values and principles. Some might say good qualities are inborn. Actually, virtues need to be cultivated (培养). With the habit of being virtuous, we can take control of our lives and move them in the direction of greater happiness and fulfillment. Virtues are universal and recognized by all cultures as basic qualities of well-being. However, practicing virtues is not easy. So often we know that it takes perseverance to reach our goals, and we still never get there. We know if we forgive, we’ll be less angry. We know it takes courage to accomplish great things. So why then, if we know what to do, are we still stuck? Because we have not yet consciously applied a virtue to a given situation so as to change its outcome such as in these examples: kindness towards someone who is having a bad day can make him or her smile and build a close relationship; trust in a relationship creates valuable, meaningful relationships; gratitude in a job loss can shift our focus from feeling low to how we can have a new, more fulfilling career; service to others can change lives, better neighborhoods and create stronger nations. We know we are becoming more virtuous people, not only because of the results above but also because of the way other people respond to us. Our friends, families, co-workers, and neighbors will trust and rely on us. They will come to us for guidance and help. They will want to be around us because we inspire them to be better people. Practicing virtues allows us to develop our potential, and live a more purposeful, better life. 28．What can we know about virtuous people from Paragraph 1? A．They are born with virtues. B．They never make a mistake. C．They have a habit of doing good. D．They act on the principle of profit. 29．What is the second paragraph mainly about? A．Satisfying career. B．Practicing virtues. C．Trust in a relationship. D．Basic qualities of well-being. 30．What can we infer from the examples given in Paragraph 3? A．Virtues only work in personal relationships. B．Being grateful always leads to a better job quickly. C．Kindness is the most useful virtue in dealing with bad moods. D．Applying virtues properly can change a situation for the better. 31．What is the author’s purpose in the last paragraph? A．To encourage readers to be more virtuous. B．To encourage readers to live a purposeful life. C．To encourage readers to offer others guidance. D．To encourage readers to develop others’ potential. D Nowadays, more and more young people use the term (术语) “executive dysfunction” to describe their daily troubles online. They often find themselves stuck in a silly thinking loop (圈), unable to start even simple daily tasks. Many post short videos online to share their similar experiences, which quickly become popular among teenagers and young adults. However, professional psychologists (心理学家) point out that most people misunderstand this term. They seldom describe a person as “dysfunctional”. Instead, they prefer to view it as weak executive functioning. It is not a disease, but a common ability everyone has to different degrees. Generally speaking, executive function follows a natural rule: it grows stronger as people grow older, and adults usually have better self-management ability than teenagers. Many everyday things can weaken our executive function. Staying up late, feeling sick, suffering from long-term stress and anxiety, or being buried in endless work and study will make it harder for us to make decisions and take action. Even too much time spent on social media can take our attention away and worsen the situation. Experts suggest some simple and practical methods to deal with the problem. First, make clear daily plans and write down small tasks on paper instead of keeping them in mind. Second, set alarms and reminders to avoid delaying tasks, not leaving them till the last minute. Third, stay away from various apps for a while when you have important tasks to finish. With small changes in daily habits, we can effectively improve our executive function and live a more organized life. 32. What does the term “executive dysfunction” mean according to psychologists? A. It means making good use of time. B. It means poor self-management ability. C. It is a common skill among young people. D. It is a serious disease that needs to be treated. 33. Which of the following can help improve one’s executive function? A. Keeping all the tasks in mind to train the memory. B. Spending more time on social media to relax. C. Taking down small tasks on a paper checklist. D. Working late into the night to finish important tasks. 34. What does the underlined word “delay” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Putting tasks off. B. Finishing tasks in advance. C. Sharing tasks with others. D. Starting tasks with great effort. 35. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To explain weak executive function and ways to improve it. B. To doubt young people’s habit of sharing troubles online. C. To introduce a disease called executive dysfunction. D. To encourage people to use social media less. 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。 Are Smartphones Making Us Less Smart? Walk down any street, and you will see a common sight: heads bent down, eyes fixed on a glowing screen. Smartphones have become an extension of our hands in the 21st century. There is no doubt that this invention has changed how we communicate and learn. 36 Some researchers and teachers are starting to worry that these devices might actually be weakening our memory and attention span. One major concern is “digital amnesia.” 37 For example, instead of remembering your best friend’s phone number or the directions to a restaurant, you simply rely on the phone to do it for you. Because we know the information is saved in our pocket, our brains make less effort to store it. Furthermore, the constant buzzing and ringing of notifications is a huge distraction. Every time your phone makes a sound, your attention is pulled away from the present moment. 38 Studies show that even having a phone face-down on a desk can lower your cognitive performance because your brain is still thinking about it subconsciously. However, it would be unfair to call smartphones entirely bad. 39 They connect us with family far away, provide access to endless educational videos, and can help us organize our busy lives. The key is not to throw the phone away, but to learn how to use it as a tool rather than being controlled by it. The solution might lie in “digital mindfulness.” This means setting clear rules for when and where to use your phone. For instance, you might decide to put the phone in another room while doing homework. 40 By being aware of the habit, we can enjoy the benefits of the new era without losing our ability to think deeply. A．This makes it very hard to focus deeply on a book or a conversation. B．But is this constant connection always a good thing? C．They also help us find jobs and make new friends more easily. D．This term describes the habit of forgetting things because we trust our devices to remember them. E．In the future, smartphones will likely replace computers completely. F．They have brought incredible convenience to our daily lives. G．Another good habit is turning off notifications for social media apps. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A Life-or-Death Rescue A quick run along the Charles River turned into a life-or-death rescue caught on camera when a Boston man jumped into the icy water to save his beloved dog.

The school football team held an important training match to choose starters for the coming important school league (联赛). All players were divided into two teams to compete hard, each eager to show their best skills and win a place in the starting lineup (首发阵容). The match soon heated up with quick passes and steps. Teammates called to each other now and then, but the atmosphere turned cold immediately. Early on, Tom’s teammate Frank accidentally passed the ball to the opposite (对方的) team. “Watch it! Can’t you pass right?” Tom shouted sharply, his face turning red with anger. Frank froze in place, head hung low, without saying a word. Coach Peter, who had been watching closely from the sidelines, immediately blew his whistle and called a timeout. He pulled Tom aside, patted his shoulder gently and said firmly: “Football is not just about winning, but trust and teamwork. Keep calm or you’ll not get a chance.” Tom nodded unhappily and ran back onto the court. The match went on in tense silence: Tom remained clearly annoyed, while Frank tried hard to focus on every move to make up for his mistake. Finally, Coach Peter blew his whistle and called “Game over!” The score was a 2-2 tie. Tom scored his team’s goals with wonderful shots, and stood proudly with his head held high, a big smile on his face, sure that he would make the team. He didn’t notice his teammates quietly keeping their distance. They gathered in small groups to chat softly among themselves, leaving him standing alone. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 When Peter announced the starting lineup, Tom found he wasn’t on the list. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Having realized his problems, Tom was determined to make a change. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高一下期末考试英语参考答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分20分） 1-5 CABAB 6-10 CABCC 11-15 BACBC 16-20 ACABC 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） 21-23 ABA 24-27 BADC 28-31 CBDA 32-35 BCAA 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36-40 BDAFG 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 41-45 DABDC 46-50 ACDAB 51-55 CBACB 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 56.to celebrate 57．were held 58．highlighting 59．a 60．recognition 61．widely 62．central 63．to 64．which 65．Generations 56． 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 One possible version The Power of Friendship Good morning, everyone! The topic of my speech is “The Power of Friendship”. It is universally acknowledged that friends are necessary to us. As far as I’m concerned, a good friend is my nearest relation. What should we do to make good friends? First, admiring our friends is a good way to promote friendship, so we should pay more attention to our friends’ strengths. In addition, friends should treat each other with sincerity. As long as we sincerely treat every friend, then our friends will also be true to us! I hold a strong belief that friends will make our life more colorful and wonderful. 第二节 One possible version When Peter announced the starting lineup, Tom found he wasn’t on the list. He burst out angrily, “I’m the best. Why am I not chosen?” He felt extremely mistaken and could hardly accept this disappointing result. Coach Peter looked at him seriously, reminding him of the importance of teamwork he had stressed before. Seeing all the teammates keep a distance from him, Tom suddenly recalled his impolite shouts toward Frank. He gradually calmed down and began to reflect on his own behavior. It dawned on him that his bad temper had destroyed team harmony, leaving him filled with deep regret and self-blame. Having realized his problems, Tom was determined to make a change. Mustering up courage, he approached Frank and apologized sincerely for his rude outburst and impatient attitude. Emotions well controlled, he never lost his temper easily from then on. In the following training, he kept calm all the time and was always ready to cheer up the teammates who made errors. He devoted himself to teamwork and attached great importance to team spirit rather than personal achievement. His gentle attitude and considerate behavior gradually won everyone’s support and trust. Eventually, he truly understood the real meaning of teamwork and sportsmanship. 听力原文 1-5： 1.W: So, the bus has broken down, in the middle of nowhere. And the subway is closed. We have to call Mom to pick us up. M: No, she’s at an important meeting today. Don’t worry. I have some money for a taxi. We’ll be home soon. 2. W: Vincent, congratulations! What a beautiful song you chose for this week’s performance! M: Thank you! I’m hoping the judges will be as happy with it as you! W: Well, I’m sure they will as all the audience enjoyed your song! 3. M: Hi, Claire. Did you do anything exciting at the weekend? W: Yes. My cousin was visiting from Germany, so I took her to the National History Museum. She majors in history so she found it inspiring. M: Yes, I went there last month. It’s a beautiful building. 4. M: Look at my new smartphone. It has an amazing camera that can take clear photos at night. W: That’s impressive! I guess you’ll get a lot of use out of it. I know you love night photography. M: Yes. I’m going to try it out tonight. 5. M: Have you got a headache again? You’d better have a rest and get your work done later. You’ve been writing that report for 2 hours. Don’t give yourself too much pressure. W: Thanks, but I don’t think that’s the problem. It’s because of the coming storm. My head always hurts before rainy days. 6-7： M: Clara, I heard you keep several pets at home? W: Yes, we have two cats, a dog and a parrot. M: That seems like a big responsibility. W: It can be sometimes. Thankfully my husband works at home full time. M: It’s a shame you can’t bring the dog here to the office. I love playing with dogs. W: I know. It will help create a more calming working environment. M: Definitely. But we’ve been lucky now that we can play music here. W: You’re right. 8-9: W: Wow, Diego. I’ve only heard you speak Spanish before. I had no idea that your English was this good. Did you live in the US before? M: No. I’ve been in Mexico all my life like you. I learned it by watching movies and TV series. W: That’s impressive. M: Watching TV series is a fun and effective way. You can learn many interesting expressions that can’t be learned in class. I can even speak some simple Chinese. W: Interesting! Hey, although we’re not in the same class, how about we practice English together sometimes? M: I’d love that! 10-12: W: This just arrived for you. M: Great! Thanks, love. That must be the new office heater I ordered. Can you leave it on the kitchen table? Then, I’ll remember to take it to work tomorrow. W: Sure. That arrived fast, didn’t it? You only ordered it yesterday. M: The benefits of door-to-door shipping! It’s so much easier than having to go to the shops every time you need something. Particularly on a day like this! W: Yeah, the poor delivery man was wet through! I noticed he was driving one of those new electric vehicles. M: Really? That’s good. One thing that worries me is these modern shipping methods. They can’t be great for the planet. Luckily, people have improved them. W: Yeah, and it’s convenient as well. M: Oh, definitely. You don’t even have to visit the post office anymore. When I returned that T-shirt I bought. I just chose the online service, and someone came here to the house to collect it! 13-16: W: Have you ever used AI tools such as ERNIE or ChatGPT when doing your college work? M: Sure. They have their uses. W: I’ve been told they’re a great time-saving tool, and I really need them to come up with new ideas . I’ve got so many projects to complete. But I worry that they’ll make my writing too “robotic”. M: Well, that’s a fair point. But I would never hand in a whole paper written by an AI tool. W: No? M: No way! The writing quality isn’t very good. Plus, annoyingly, the facts are often incorrect. The professors would catch me out straight away! W: So, how do you use AI tools, then? M: For bringing my research together and checking for mistakes… that sort of thing. W: And don’t you feel that using them makes you lazier? M: I see it more like having a writing partner. Someone to get me going and keep me focused. W: I suppose the key is finding the middle ground. Let them improve our creativity, but not replace it. M: Exactly. 17-20: Being accepted to University College London was a dream come true. There was a lot of competition. However, I had been driven by my parents’ promise. They said if I worked hard. they’d let me go traveling in Asia. I excitedly set off on my travels, flying first to Japan, then China, and finally, Thailand. At the final destination of my trip, I saw a small, dirty-looking dog while relaxing on a beach. She wasn’t walking well, and I guessed she had been hit by a car. The poor thing looked scared and hungry, and I couldn’t just leave her there. Luckily, I was directed to the Soi Dog Foundation. The staff of this charity immediately provided my little friend with food, medicine, and a good bath! They also fixed her broken leg before nursing her back to health. I really admired the work the charity does for Thailand’s homeless animals, and I made a large donation before flying home to Sydney. After graduation, I’m planning to spend another summer in the charity as a volunteer! 阅读理解部分： A篇:这是一篇应用文。介绍了四处欧洲世界遗产胜地的情况。 21.根据第一段“With its Bauhaus-influenced design, the mine is a great success of modern industrial architecture and a centre for modern art and culture.(这座矿井采用了包豪斯风格的设计，是现代工业建筑的杰出典范，也是现代艺术与文化的中心)”可知，除了采矿之外，佐尔韦尔矿场工业区还以现代艺术与文化而闻名。故选A。 22.根据第四段“By walking in the miners’ footsteps down the shafts and hearing their stories first-hand, you can begin to understand the life and conditions of the workers.(通过沿着矿工们走过的矿井通道前行，并亲耳聆听他们的故事，你便能够开始了解矿工们的生活和工作环境)”可知，在诺尔-帕斯-德卡莱斯矿区，游客可以直接聆听矿工们的故事。故选B。 23.根据标题“Four Amazing European Heritage Destinations(四个令人惊叹的欧洲文化遗产胜地)”结合全文依次介绍了德国、匈牙利、波兰、法国四个欧洲世界遗产地的特色、游玩项目和看点，可知，文章选自一本旅行指南。故选A。 B篇：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者如何在家庭中过零浪费的生活方式。 24.根据划线部分前文“Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to(如果你想过一种更可持续的生活方式，可能不是你周围的每个人都准备好)”及第二段中的“I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.(在这个过程中，我学到了一些东西，我希望如果你在一个不总是支持你的家庭中尽最大努力去弄清楚如何做出改变，你会感到鼓舞)”可知，如果你想过一种更可持续的生活方式，可能不是你周围的每个人都准备好加入这一运动。由此推知，划线词组jump on that bandwagon与Join you in what you’re doing.(加入你正在做的事情)意思接近。故选B。 25.根据第三段中的“A few days later, I came back with my first jars of zero waste groceries, and my dad commented on how silly it was for me to carry jars everywhere. It came off as a bit discouraging.(几天后，我带着第一罐零废物杂货回来了，我父亲评论说，我到处带着罐子是多么愚蠢。结果有点令人沮丧)”可推知，作者的父亲不赞成用罐子买食品杂货。故选A。 26.根据第四段中的“Yet as the months of reducing waste continued, I did what I could that was within my own reach. (然而，随着减少浪费的几个月的持续，我尽了自己力所能及的努力)”及“Perhaps your household won’t entirely make the switch, but you may have some control over your own personal spaces to make the changes you desire.(也许你的家庭不会完全改变，但你可以控制自己的个人空间，做出你想要的改变)”可推知，作者是一个意志坚定的人。故选D。 27.根据第一段中的“Chances are that if you’re looking to live a more sustainable lifestyle, not everyone around you will be ready to jump on that bandwagon.(如果你想过一种更可持续的生活方式，可能不是你周围的每个人都准备好加入这一运动)”及第二段中的“I’ve learned a few things along the way though, which I hope you’ll find encouraging if you’re doing your best to figure out how you can make the change in a not-always-supportive household.(在这个过程中，我学到了一些东西，我希望如果你在一个不总是支持你的家庭中尽最大努力去弄清楚如何做出改变，你会感到鼓舞)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者如何在家庭中过零浪费的生活方式。故选C。 C篇：主要介绍了美德的含义、培养美德的重要性，以及如何在生活中运用美德来改善处境和提升幸福感。 28．根据第一段中“Morally excellent people have a character made up of virtues valued as good. They are honest, respectful, courageous, forgiving and kind, for example. They do the right thing, and don’t bend to impulses, urges or desires, but act according to values and principles. (道德卓越的人，其品格由被视为善的种种美德构成。例如，他们诚实、尊重他人、勇敢、宽容且善良。他们做正确的事，不屈服于冲动或欲望，而是依照价值观和原则行事)”可知，有美德的人，其品格由被视为善的种种美德构成，他们诚实、尊重他人、勇敢、宽容且善良。由此推知，他们会有行善的习惯。故选C 29．根据第二段“Virtues are universal and recognized by all cultures as basic qualities of well-being. However, practicing virtues is not easy. So often we know that it takes perseverance to reach our goals, and we still never get there. We know if we forgive, we’ll be less angry. We know it takes courage to accomplish great things. So why then, if we know what to do, are we still stuck?(美德是普世的，被所有文化公认为幸福的基本品质。然而，践行美德并非易事。我们常常知道，需要坚持不懈才能达到目标，却仍旧无法企及。我们知道，如果能宽恕，愤怒就会减少。我们知道，成就伟业需要勇气。那么，如果我们知道该做什么，为何还会停滞不前呢？)”可知，本段主要讨论的是践行美德面临困难。故选B 30．根据第三段中“Because we have not yet consciously applied a virtue to a given situation so as to change its outcome such as in these examples: kindness towards someone who is having a bad day can make him or her smile and build a close relationship; trust in a relationship creates valuable, meaningful relationships; gratitude in a job loss can shift our focus from feeling low to how we can have a new, more fulfilling career; service to others can change lives, better neighborhoods and create stronger nations. (因为我们尚未有意识地将某种美德运用于特定情境中以改变其结果，例如：对心情不佳的人施以善意，可以使其展露笑颜，并建立亲密的关系；在关系中投入信任，能创造宝贵而有意义的联结；面对失业时心怀感激，能将我们的关注点从情绪低落转向如何开启一份更充实的新事业；服务他人能够改变生命、改善社区，并建设更强大的国家)”可知，段中这些例子说明恰当地运用美德可以改变结果，可以让情况变得更好。故选D 31．根据最后一段中“We know we are becoming more virtuous people, not only because of the results above but also because of the way other people respond to us. Our friends, families, co-workers, and neighbors will trust and rely on us. They will come to us for guidance and help. They will want to be around us because we inspire them to be better people. (我们知道我们正在成为更有美德的人，不仅因为上述结果，还因为他人对我们的回应方式。我们的朋友、家人、同事和邻居会信任并依赖我们。他们会来向我们寻求指导和帮助。他们会想要和我们在一起，因为我们激励他们成为更好的人)”可知，作者通过描述变得有美德后他人会如何积极回应，旨在鼓励读者成为更有美德的人。故选A D篇：主要讲述了执行功能薄弱的表现、成因及专家给出的改善方法。 32.根据第二段中“However, professional psychologists (心理学家) point out that most people misunderstand this term. They seldom describe a person as “dysfunctional”. Instead, they prefer to view it as weak executive functioning. It is not a disease, but a common ability everyone has to different degrees. Generally speaking, executive function follows a natural rule: it grows stronger as people grow older, and adults usually have better self-management ability than teenagers.(然而，专业心理学家指出，大多数人对这一术语存在误解。他们很少将一个人描述为“功能失调”，而是更倾向于将其视为执行功能较弱。这并非一种疾病，而是一种每个人在不同程度上都具备的常见能力。总体而言，执行功能遵循一个自然规律：随着年龄增长，其能力会逐渐增强，成年人通常比青少年具有更好的自我管理能力)”可知，心理学家认为“executive dysfunction”意味着较差的自我管理能力。故选B 33.根据第四段中“Experts suggest some simple and practical methods to deal with the problem. First, make clear daily plans and write down small tasks on paper instead of keeping them in mind.(专家建议了一些简单实用的方法来应对这个问题。首先，制定清晰的日常计划，把小任务写在纸上，而不是记在脑子里)”可知，在纸质清单上记录小任务有助于改善执行功能。故选C 34.根据第四段中“Second, set alarms and reminders to avoid delaying tasks, not leaving them till the last minute.(第二，设置闹钟和提醒以避免delaying任务，不要把它们留到最后一分钟)”可知，delay意为“推迟，拖延”，与putting tasks off同义。故选A 35. 通读全文，尤其第一段“Nowadays, more and more young people use the term (术语) “executive dysfunction” to describe their daily troubles online. They often find themselves stuck in a silly thinking loop (圈), unable to start even simple daily tasks. Many post short videos online to share their similar experiences, which quickly become popular among teenagers and young adults.(如今，越来越多的年轻人用“执行功能障碍”这一术语来形容他们在网络上的日常困扰。他们常常陷入一种愚蠢的思维循环中，甚至无法开始简单的日常任务。许多人在网上发布短视频，分享自己类似的经历，这些内容很快在青少年和年轻人中流行起来)”并结合第二段对执行功能薄弱的解释及第四段给出的具体改善建议可知，本文的主要目的是解释执行功能薄弱这一现象并提供改善方法。故选A 第二节：本文探讨智能手机利弊：既便利生活、助力沟通学习，又造成记忆衰退、注意力下降，人们应自律管控，理性使用手机。 36．根据上文“Walk down any street, and you will see a common sight: heads bent down, eyes fixed on a glowing screen. Smartphones have become an extension of our hands in the 21st century. There is no doubt that this invention has changed how we communicate and learn.(漫步在任何一条街道上，你都会看到一个常见的景象：人们低着头，眼睛紧盯着闪烁的屏幕。在21世纪，智能手机已经成为我们双手的延伸。毫无疑问，这一发明改变了我们的交流和学习方式)”以及后文“Some researchers and teachers are starting to worry that these devices might actually be weakening our memory and attention span.(一些研究人员和教师开始担忧，这类电子设备实际上可能正在削弱我们的记忆力和专注力)”可知，前文讲智能手机改变了沟通和学习方式，后文转折提出担忧它削弱记忆力和专注力。B选项(但这种时刻联网永远是好事吗？)承上启下，引出转折。 37．根据上文“One major concern is “digital amnesia.”(一个主要的担忧就是“数字失忆症”)”可知，前文提到“数字失忆症”，空处应该解释该术语。D选项(这个术语指因为相信设备会帮我们记忆，而自己遗忘事情的习惯)符合语境。 38．根据上文“Furthermore, the constant buzzing and ringing of notifications is a huge distraction. Every time your phone makes a sound, your attention is pulled away from the present moment.(此外，源源不断的消息提示声和震动十分让人分心。每当手机发出声响，你的注意力就会从当下转移开)”可知，前文说消息提示音让人分心、注意力被拉走，选项承接上文说明分心带来的后果。A选项(这让我们很难深度专注看书或交谈)符合语境。 39．根据上文“However, it would be unfair to call smartphones entirely bad.(然而，将智能手机一概视为有害的东西是不公正的)”以及后文“They connect us with family far away, provide access to endless educational videos, and can help us organize our busy lives. The key is not to throw the phone away, but to learn how to use it as a tool rather than being controlled by it.(它们让我们与远方的家人保持联系，为我们提供了海量的教育视频资源，并且还能帮助我们规划繁忙的生活。关键不在于把手机扔掉，而在于学会如何将其当作一种工具来使用，而不是被它所控制)”可知，前文转折说不能全盘否定手机，后文讲手机的各种好处，F选项(它们给我们日常生活带来了极大便利)总述手机优点，符合语境 40．根据上文“The solution might lie in “digital mindfulness.” This means setting clear rules for when and where to use your phone. For instance, you might decide to put the phone in another room while doing homework.(解决办法或许在于“数字正念”这一理念。这意味着要为何时以及在何处使用手机制定明确的规则。例如，你可能会决定在做作业时将手机放在另一个房间里)”可知，前文举例写作业时把手机放到另一个房间，是使用手机的规则，G选项(另一个好习惯是关闭社交软件通知)并列给出另一个具体做法。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节：文章主要讲述男子跳入冰冷河水救爱犬，历经艰险最终和狗狗双双脱险的故事。 41.句意：他自己差点没能活着出来。A. put放；B. take拿走；C. bring带来；D. make成功做到。根据下文“it back out himself”和“Someone pulled them to safety and covered Benny with a coat to warm him.”可知，他自己差点没能成功游回岸上，固定搭配make it表示“成功做到，及时到达”，此处指他差点没能成功脱险。 42.句意：汉斯正和他两岁的金毛贵犬班尼一起跑步，这时精力充沛的狗突然注意到两只鸭子，朝河边跑去。A. noticed注意到；B. missed错过；C. observed观察；D. recognized认出。根据下文“two ducks and ran toward the river”可知，狗是因为看到了鸭子才跑过去。 43.句意：汉斯还没来得及阻止它，班尼就跳进了水里，开始追赶鸭子。A.
