Austrian Alps Since 2008, 36 villages in Central Europe’s Eastern Alps have banded together to promote their communities to the travelers in the world who are interested in mountain hiking, biking, and climbing, as well as winter sports like cross-country skiing and ice climbing. The villagers put great emphasis on green mountain tourism. For example, they refuse large tourist projects like huge ski sites and cable cars. Hikers usually stay in farmers’ houses and try traditional foods after a long day in the mountains. Longmen Grottoes Running for about 1,000 meters along the Yi River in China’s Henan Province and carved between the 5th and 8th centuries, Longmen Grottoes features over 2,300 caves which are home to more than 100,000 Buddha (佛像) statues. As one of the four most famous grottoes in China, it offers invaluable information about the politics, economy, and spirituality of its time. Appian Way If all roads lead to Rome, this ancient highway built 2,300 years ago is the mother of them all. Stretching for 360 miles from the heart of Italy’s capital to the seaport of Brindisi on the Adriatic, the ancient road, which symbolizes the ups and downs of the Roman Empire, has been rebuilt for modern travelers, with stops at scenic villages and historical sites. Hadrian’s Wall Starting to be built in the second century, Hadrian’s Wall once marked the rule of the Roman Empire in the UK. Things have changed over the past two thousand years. But the 73-mile-long wall continues to attract visitors. This year, soldiers dressed in Roman uniforms will once again patrol （巡逻） along the rebuilt wall. 1. What is the destination in Austrian Alps known for? A. Sea beaches. B. Local foods. C. Huge skiing sites. D. Modern hotels. 2. When was the earliest cave in Longmen Grottoes built? A. In the second century. B. In the fourth century. C. In the fifth century. D. In the eighth century. 3. What do the last two attractions have in common? A. They are located in the UK. B. They connect the capital to the seaport. C. They were used by the army. D. They are related to the Roman Empire. B The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) in the world has benefited robot makers and computer scientists. It’s also providing an unexpected income for Anguilla, a tiny island in the Caribbean, as foreign companies and individuals fight to register websites that end in .ai. Fueled by the increasing interest in AI, Anguilla’s earnings from web domain (域名) registration fees grew by 400% last year to $32 million. The income now accounts for about 20% of Anguilla’s total government income. Just a few years ago, it was at around 5%. To help keep up with the rapid growth in domain registrations, Anguilla is signing a deal with a US-based domain management company, Identity Digital, to help manage the effort. The agreement will mean more money for the government while improving the security of the web addresses. Anguilla’s government, which uses the gov.ai home page, collects a fee every time an .ai web address is renewed. It also gets paid when new addresses are registered and abandoned ones are sold off. The money directly fuels the economy of Anguilla, which is just 91 square kilometers and has a population of about 16,000. Surrounded with blue waters and white sand beaches, the island is a destination for wealthy tourists. Still, many residents are poor and tourism has been frequently hit by powerful hurricanes. “The money takes the pressure off government and helps fund key projects. But we can’t rely on it,” Premier Ellis Webster said. “You can’t predict how long this is going to last.” The island was given the. ai internet address in 1995. It was one of hundreds of ordinary addresses assigned to individual countries and regions based on their names. While the addresses are supposed to indicate a website has a link to a particular region or organization, it’s not always a requirement. So it was just luck that it was Anguilla, and not nearby Antigua, that got the .ai domain. 4. What can we learn from the first two paragraphs? A. Web addresses are often in short supply. B. AI industry is growing fast in Anguilla. C. Anguilla is benefiting from the AI craze. D. Anguilla is a big country in the Caribbean. 5. What is the problem with the tourism in Anguilla? A. The waters and beaches are polluted. B. It is often affected by natural disasters. C. Most tourists spend little money there. D. It is controlled by a US-based company. 6. How did Ellis Webster most probably feel about the new income? A. Relieved and worried. B. Worried and disappointed. C. Ashamed and relieved. D. Disappointed and ashamed. 7. What is a feature of the web domain? A. It must be based on a country’s name. B. It has to be bought by a certain country. C. It is often shared by neighboring countries. D. It is not required to follow the rule strictly. C A new study led by Elena Martinescu has found that almost everyone gossips and that around 60 percent of the time we spend on conversation with other people involves some form of gossip. “We have found that adults spend about 52 minutes per day talking to someone about someone else who is not present,” says Martinescu, a researcher at King’s College London who has been studying gossip in the workplace. “We gossip about our friends, we gossip about our enemies, and we gossip about stars we’ve never met before — and likely never will.” But here’s the surprise: Despite the assumption that most gossip is about bad things, the study found that the majority of gossip is about everyday things that keep people connected. For example, we share whose daughter has got her driver’s license or whose uncle has had a kidney stone. Of course, some gossip is about bad things. It can be about someone who cheats at cards or who does not work hard in the office. However, even such negative gossip serves a purpose: It is a kind of self-reflecting system. “Hearing the negative gossip, the victims may feel hurt, but it may lead them to reflect, and in some cases encourage them to improve,” explains Martinescu. Gossip that strengthens relationship and benefits cooperation is called prosocial gossip. It may involve sharing unfavorable judgments, but the shared information could also protect many people from antisocial behavior. Of course, it does not mean that green light should be given to negative gossip. According to the study, it will backfire since we don’t share negative gossip with a desire to help others. Instead, we do it because we are usually driven by jealousy or the desire to get attention. “So negative gossip — even when they’re prosocial — should not be encouraged,” warns Martinescu. 8. What is the popular assumption about gossip? A. Almost everyone gossips. B. It is usually about bad things. C. It encourages cooperation. D. Most of it is about daily things. 9. Which of the following can best describe the negative gossip? A. It is often based on good will. B. It always happens among close friends. C. It may be beneficial sometimes. D. It plays a key role in strengthening ties. 10. What will Martinescu most probably suggest we do in the office? A. Monitor all sorts of gossiping. B. Show support to the victims. C. Take part in prosocial gossip. D. Avoid any negative gossiping. 11. From which is the text probably taken? A. A book review. B. A news report. C. A lecture. D. A diary entry. D Like a magician, Anita Antoninka poured some water over the so-called biocrusts that she had planted in the Arizona desert and within seconds, the seemingly lifeless soil at her feet turned into a blanket of dark-green moss (苔藓)! “These tiny biocrusts help create a protective living skin for Earth’s driest places. They absorb CO2 and produce O₂. They also enrich the dry soil by changing N₂ in the atmosphere into nutrients (营养) other larger plants can use. In turn, the larger plants’ roots grow deep in the ground to protect the soil,” explained Antoninka. “Only when this full cycle starts working does a true ecosystem exist.” However, in dry lands around the world, biocrusts are under threat from climate change and human activities. Biocrusts can regrow, but the process takes centuries. It’s why Antoninka from Northern Arizona University has begun an ambitious new experiment: She is growing biocrusts and transplanting them to some of the driest areas in the US. Luckily for her, she only needs tiny pieces of biocrusts, because any individual cell in biocrusts can regrow into a functioning mini ecosystem, as long as conditions are suitable. And suitable means unpleasant. Antoninka found that life in a greenhouse was too cushy for biocrusts and her experiments there failed. Instead, she found that outdoor places sheltered from extreme heat were enough to toughen up the tiny plants without killing them. Antoninka now grows biocrusts on materials so that they can be rolled up, transported, and planted in new locations. “For years, ecologists have been waiting for biocrusts to return on their own,” said Akasha Faist, an ecologist at New Mexico State University. “But now, efforts from Antoninka have begun to speed up this natural process.” 12. What can we know about biocrusts? A. They can grow into very large plants. B. They can regrow fast in the driest places. C. They are the basis of the ecosystem. D. They can help some chemical reactions. 13. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3? A. Add some background information. B. Summarize the previous paragraphs. C. Provide some advice for researchers. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion. 14. Which is closest in meaning to “cushy” underlined in paragraph 4? A. Hot. B. Tough. C. Strange. D. Easy. 15. What was Anita Antoninka’s breakthrough according to Akasha Faist? A. She shortened biocrusts’ regrowing time. B. She discovered biocrusts for the first time. C. She invented materials to speed up the process. D. She successfully grew biocrusts in greenhouses. 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。 We all have big goals we want to achieve — getting fit, learning a new language, or reading more books. Yet many of us struggle to make lasting changes. We start with great enthusiasm, only to give up a few weeks later. ____16____ This approach, known as micro-habits, is changing the way people think about personal growth. Micro-habits are tiny actions that take less than two minutes to complete. Instead of promising to exercise for an hour every day, you start by doing just one push-up. Instead of aiming to read a whole book, you begin with a single page. ____17____ They also require almost no motivation to start. The science behind that approach is simple. When we try to make big changes, our brains often refuse because the effort seems hard to bear. ____18____ Once the behavior becomes automatic, we can gradually increase the difficulty. This is why micro-habits work: they avoid our brain’s natural refusal to change. The benefits of micro-habits go beyond just getting things done. When you complete a tiny habit successfully, you experience a small sense of achievement. ____19____ It encourages you to keep going, creating a snowball effect that leads to bigger changes over time. So how can you start? Choose one small behavior you want to develop. ____20____ For example, if you want to practice gratitude, spend one minute each evening thinking about one thing you’re thankful for. The key is consistency — do the tiny action every day, no matter what. Over time, these small steps add up to remarkable results. A. This feeling builds confidence and motivation. B. This helps them achieve their goals faster. C. However, micro-habits are easy to maintain. D. But a new strategy suggests starting much smaller. E. The size of the habit sometimes matters. F. Then, connect it to an existing daily routine. G. They require a little time and energy. 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。 I was 60 when I started learning to play the concertina (六角手风琴).

She was excited to spend a year studying in France. Yet one thought bothered her throughout the flight: “Can they understand me?” Her fears proved justified. Within days of arriving in France, Holly felt completely lost. Simple tasks, like ordering coffee or asking for directions, became exhausting battles. She felt very lonely and missed home terribly. The only comfort came in a package from her mother. It was filled with Holly’s favorite treat: Skippy peanut butter, which was impossible to be found in France. She rushed to the post office to get the package. On the way, she even imagined herself opening the package and eating the comfort food right there! But at the counter, the attendant couldn’t speak any English at all. Holly switched to her awkward French. However, the attendant just shook her head. The more she repeated herself, the more frustrated — and hopeless — she felt. Obviously, she couldn’t understand Holly’s French, either. Just as Holly was about to break down in tears — not just over the peanut butter, but over everything: the loneliness, the endless struggle to be understood — a gentle voice came from behind, “Can I help you?” Holly turned to see a French woman about her mother’s age, with kind eyes and a warm smile. Her name was Jouve. After Holly explained her situation in English, Jouve placed a reassuring hand on Holly’s arm and spoke to the attendant in rapid, fluent French. Within two minutes, the package was handed over. Holly held it like a treasure. On their way to the parking lot, Holly poured out her heart — the language barrier, the isolation, the homesickness. Jouve listened quietly, her eyes full of sympathy. Before they parted, she asked, “Why not join my family for dinner this Sunday?” 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。 That meal changed everything. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Holly decided to pass on Jouve’s kindness to other international students. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第四部分 写作 37. 你校上周五举办了校园美食节活动，请为校英文报写一篇报道，内容包括： 1. 活动介绍； 2. 活动反响。 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。 School Food Festival ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 25级创新班期末质量检测 高一英语 考生注意： 1．本试卷分选择题和非选择题两部分。满分150分，考试时间120分钟。 2．答题前，考生务必用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔将密封线内项目填写清楚。 3．考生作答时，请将答案答在答题卡上。选择题每小题选出答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑；非选择题请用直径0.5毫米黑色墨水签字笔在答题卡上各题的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域书写的答案无效，在试题卷、草稿纸上作答无效。 4．本卷命题范围：人教版选择性必修第一册至选择性必修第三册Unit 3。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1．What is the man probably doing?

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了四个具有自然、历史和文化意义的旅游胜地。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Austrian Alps部分中的“Hikers usually stay in farmers’ houses and try traditional foods after a long day in the mountains.(徒步旅行者通常在山里度过漫长的一天后，会住在农民家里，品尝传统食物)”可知，奥地利阿尔卑斯山的目的地以其当地食物而闻名。故选B。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Longmen Grottoes部分中的“Running for about 1,000 meters along the Yi River in China’s Henan Province and carved between the 5th and 8th centuries, Longmen Grottoes features over 2,300 caves which are home to more than 100,000 Buddha statues.(龙门石窟沿着中国河南省的伊河延伸约1000米，雕刻于5世纪至8世纪之间，拥有2300多个洞穴，里面供奉着超过10万尊佛像)”可知，龙门石窟中最早的洞穴建于5世纪。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Appian Way部分中的“If all roads lead to Rome, this ancient highway built 2,300 years ago is the mother of them all.(如果说条条道路通罗马，那么这条2300年前修建的古老公路就是所有道路之母)”和Hadrian’s Wall部分中的“Starting to be built in the second century, Hadrian’s Wall once marked the rule of the Roman Empire in the UK.(哈德良长城始建于二世纪，曾是罗马帝国统治英国的标志)”可知，Appian Way和Hadrian’s Wall都与罗马帝国有关。Appian Way是古罗马时期修建的一条重要道路，而Hadrian’s Wall则是罗马帝国在英国统治时期的标志性建筑。故选D。 B The rapid growth of artificial intelligence (AI) in the world has benefited robot makers and computer scientists.

D 【解析】 【导语】文章报道了加勒比小岛安圭拉因国家域名与人工智能缩写碰巧一致，意外地从全球AI热潮中获得巨额域名注册收入，显著改善了其经济，但当地政府也清醒地认识到这笔横财的不可持续性。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“It’s also providing an unexpected income for Anguilla, a tiny island in the Caribbean, as foreign companies and individuals fight to register websites that end in .ai. (这还为安圭拉（一个位于加勒比海的小岛国）带来了意想不到的收入，因为众多外国公司和个人都在争相注册以.ai为后缀的网站。)”和第二段中“Fueled by the increasing interest in AI, Anguilla’s earnings from web domain (域名) registration fees grew by 400% last year to $32 million. (由于人们对人工智能的兴趣日益浓厚，安圭拉去年从网络域名注册费中获得的收入增长了400%，达到3200万美元。)”可推知，安圭拉正在从人工智能热潮中获益。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Still, many residents are poor and tourism has been frequently hit by powerful hurricanes. (不过，这里的许多居民生活贫困，而且旅游业也经常受到强飓风的严重影响。)”可知，安圭拉的旅游业面临着经常受到自然灾害影响的问题。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中Ellis Webster所说的话“The money takes the pressure off government and helps fund key projects. But we can’t rely on it (这些钱减轻了政府的压力，并为关键项目提供了资金支持。但我们不能完全依赖它。)”和“You can’t predict how long this is going to last. (你无法预测这会持续多久。)”可知，他肯定收入带来了积极影响，体现宽慰，但指出其不可预测性，体现担忧。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“While the addresses are supposed to indicate a website has a link to a particular region or organization, it’s not always a requirement. (虽然这些地址本应表明某个网站与特定的地区或组织存在关联，但并非总是必须如此。)”可知，网络域名的一个特点是不要求严格遵守规则。 C A new study led by Elena Martinescu has found that almost everyone gossips and that around 60 percent of the time we spend on conversation with other people involves some form of gossip. “We have found that adults spend about 52 minutes per day talking to someone about someone else who is not present,” says Martinescu, a researcher at King’s College London who has been studying gossip in the workplace. “We gossip about our friends, we gossip about our enemies, and we gossip about stars we’ve never met before — and likely never will.” But here’s the surprise: Despite the assumption that most gossip is about bad things, the study found that the majority of gossip is about everyday things that keep people connected. For example, we share whose daughter has got her driver’s license or whose uncle has had a kidney stone. Of course, some gossip is about bad things. It can be about someone who cheats at cards or who does not work hard in the office. However, even such negative gossip serves a purpose: It is a kind of self-reflecting system. “Hearing the negative gossip, the victims may feel hurt, but it may lead them to reflect, and in some cases encourage them to improve,” explains Martinescu. Gossip that strengthens relationship and benefits cooperation is called prosocial gossip. It may involve sharing unfavorable judgments, but the shared information could also protect many people from antisocial behavior. Of course, it does not mean that green light should be given to negative gossip. According to the study, it will backfire since we don’t share negative gossip with a desire to help others. Instead, we do it because we are usually driven by jealousy or the desire to get attention. “So negative gossip — even when they’re prosocial — should not be encouraged,” warns Martinescu. 8. What is the popular assumption about gossip? A. Almost everyone gossips. B. It is usually about bad things. C. It encourages cooperation. D. Most of it is about daily things. 9. Which of the following can best describe the negative gossip? A. It is often based on good will. B. It always happens among close friends. C. It may be beneficial sometimes. D. It plays a key role in strengthening ties. 10. What will Martinescu most probably suggest we do in the office? A. Monitor all sorts of gossiping. B. Show support to the victims. C. Take part in prosocial gossip. D. Avoid any negative gossiping. 11. From which is the text probably taken? A. A book review. B. A news report. C. A lecture. D. A diary entry. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】文章报道了一项关于流言蜚语的新研究，指出尽管人们普遍认为流言多是负面的，但实际上大部分是关于日常琐事以维系社会联系，但也警告不应鼓励任何形式的负面流言。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Despite the assumption that most gossip is about bad things, the study found that the majority of gossip is about everyday things that keep people connected. (尽管人们普遍认为大多数流言蜚语是关于坏事的，但研究发现，大部分的流言蜚语是关于那些维系人们联系的日常琐事。)”可知，人们普遍假设流言蜚语通常是关于坏事的。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, even such negative gossip serves a purpose: It is a kind of self-reflecting system. (然而，即使是这种负面的流言蜚语也有其目的：它是一种自我反思系统。)”和第五段中“Hearing the negative gossip, the victims may feel hurt, but it may lead them to reflect, and in some cases encourage them to improve (听到那些负面的流言蜚语，受害者可能会感到受伤，但这可能会促使他们进行反思，在某些情况下甚至会激励他们做出改进。)”可知，负面流言也有其目的，可能让人反思，鼓励人改进，这表明它有时可能是有益的。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““So negative gossip — even when they’re prosocial — should not be encouraged,” warns Martinescu. (“所以，负面流言——即使它们是亲社会的——也不应被鼓励，”Martinescu警告说。)”可知，Martinescu很可能建议我们在办公室避免任何负面流言蜚语。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A new study led by Elena Martinescu has found that almost everyone gossips and that around 60 percent of the time we spend on conversation with other people involves some form of gossip. (由Elena Martinescu领导的一项新研究发现，几乎每个人都会说闲话，而且我们在与他人交谈时所花费的时间中，约有60%都用于某种形式的闲话。)”可知，文章开篇引述一项新研究的发现，再对比普遍假设，接着分析流言的不同类型和作用，最后给出研究者的结论性警告，且多次直接引用研究主导者Martinescu的原话。文章是在客观报道新研究，应该出自新闻报道。 D Like a magician, Anita Antoninka poured some water over the so-called biocrusts that she had planted in the Arizona desert and within seconds, the seemingly lifeless soil at her feet turned into a blanket of dark-green moss (苔藓)! “These tiny biocrusts help create a protective living skin for Earth’s driest places. They absorb CO2 and produce O₂. They also enrich the dry soil by changing N₂ in the atmosphere into nutrients (营养) other larger plants can use. In turn, the larger plants’ roots grow deep in the ground to protect the soil,” explained Antoninka. “Only when this full cycle starts working does a true ecosystem exist.” However, in dry lands around the world, biocrusts are under threat from climate change and human activities. Biocrusts can regrow, but the process takes centuries. It’s why Antoninka from Northern Arizona University has begun an ambitious new experiment: She is growing biocrusts and transplanting them to some of the driest areas in the US. Luckily for her, she only needs tiny pieces of biocrusts, because any individual cell in biocrusts can regrow into a functioning mini ecosystem, as long as conditions are suitable. And suitable means unpleasant. Antoninka found that life in a greenhouse was too cushy for biocrusts and her experiments there failed. Instead, she found that outdoor places sheltered from extreme heat were enough to toughen up the tiny plants without killing them. Antoninka now grows biocrusts on materials so that they can be rolled up, transported, and planted in new locations. “For years, ecologists have been waiting for biocrusts to return on their own,” said Akasha Faist, an ecologist at New Mexico State University. “But now, efforts from Antoninka have begun to speed up this natural process.” 12. What can we know about biocrusts? A. They can grow into very large plants. B. They can regrow fast in the driest places. C. They are the basis of the ecosystem. D. They can help some chemical reactions. 13. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 3? A. Add some background information. B. Summarize the previous paragraphs. C. Provide some advice for researchers. D. Introduce a new topic for discussion. 14. Which is closest in meaning to “cushy” underlined in paragraph 4? A. Hot. B. Tough. C. Strange. D. Easy. 15. What was Anita Antoninka’s breakthrough according to Akasha Faist? A. She shortened biocrusts’ regrowing time. B. She discovered biocrusts for the first time. C. She invented materials to speed up the process. D. She successfully grew biocrusts in greenhouses. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了生态学家Anita Antoninka为应对干旱地区生物结皮退化的危机，成功探索出在户外培育并移植生物结皮的方法，加速了其自然恢复过程。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中Antoninka所说的话“These tiny biocrusts help create a protective living skin for Earth’s driest places. They absorb CO2 and produce O₂. They also enrich the dry soil by changing N₂ in the atmosphere into nutrients (营养) other larger plants can use. In turn, the larger plants’ roots grow deep in the ground to protect the soil (这些微小的生物结皮为地球上最干旱的地区提供了保护性的“生命外皮”。它们能够吸收二氧化碳并产生氧气。它们还能通过将大气中的氮气转化为其他较大植物可以利用的营养物质，来丰富干燥的土壤。反过来，较大的植物的根会深入地下生长，以保护土壤。)”和“Only when this full cycle starts working does a true ecosystem exist. (只有当这个完整的循环开始运转时，一个真正的生态系统才会存在。)”可知，生物结皮是启动并维持这个循环的初始环节，表明它们是生态系统的基础。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“However, in dry lands around the world, biocrusts are under threat from climate change and human activities… but the process takes centuries. It’s why Antoninka… has begun an ambitious new experiment (然而，在世界各地的干旱地区，生物结皮正受到气候变化和人类活动的威胁……这个过程需要数个世纪。这就是为什么Antoninka……开始了一项雄心勃勃的新实验)”可知，该段以“However”开头，将话题从前两段生物结皮的神奇功能和生态作用，转向其面临的全球性威胁以及自然恢复的缓慢，接着指出这是Antoninka开展新实验的原因。这是为Antoninka的研究动机和意义提供了背景，可推知作者是想补充一些背景信息。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“her experiments there failed. Instead, she found that outdoor places sheltered from extreme heat were enough to toughen up the tiny plants without killing them. (她在那里的实验没有成功。然而，她发现那些远离酷热环境的户外场所足以让这些幼小的植物变得健壮，而且不会导致它们死亡。)”可知，温室环境不利于生物结皮生长，而有一定挑战性的户外环境反而更好。由此推知，画线词意为“轻松的，舒适的”，与Easy“舒适的”意思接近。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中Akasha Faist所说的话“For years, ecologists have been waiting for biocrusts to return on their own (多年来，生态学家们一直期待着生物结皮能够自行重新生长起来)”和“But now, efforts from Antoninka have begun to speed up this natural process. (但如今，Antoninka的努力已经开始加速这一自然过程。)”可知，Akasha Faist认为Anita Antoninka的突破在于缩短了生物结皮的再生时间。 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。 We all have big goals we want to achieve — getting fit, learning a new language, or reading more books. Yet many of us struggle to make lasting changes. We start with great enthusiasm, only to give up a few weeks later. ____16____ This approach, known as micro-habits, is changing the way people think about personal growth. Micro-habits are tiny actions that take less than two minutes to complete. Instead of promising to exercise for an hour every day, you start by doing just one push-up. Instead of aiming to read a whole book, you begin with a single page. ____17____ They also require almost no motivation to start. The science behind that approach is simple. When we try to make big changes, our brains often refuse because the effort seems hard to bear. ____18____ Once the behavior becomes automatic, we can gradually increase the difficulty. This is why micro-habits work: they avoid our brain’s natural refusal to change. The benefits of micro-habits go beyond just getting things done. When you complete a tiny habit successfully, you experience a small sense of achievement. ____19____ It encourages you to keep going, creating a snowball effect that leads to bigger changes over time. So how can you start? Choose one small behavior you want to develop. ____20____ For example, if you want to practice gratitude, spend one minute each evening thinking about one thing you’re thankful for. The key is consistency — do the tiny action every day, no matter what. Over time, these small steps add up to remarkable results. A. This feeling builds confidence and motivation. B. This helps them achieve their goals faster. C. However, micro-habits are easy to maintain. D. But a new strategy suggests starting much smaller. E. The size of the habit sometimes matters. F. Then, connect it to an existing daily routine. G. They require a little time and energy. 【答案】16. D 17. G 18. C 19. A 20. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了许多人难以实现大目标，而微习惯这一策略能帮助人们逐步实现改变，并讲解了微习惯的特点、原理、好处及实践方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“We start with great enthusiasm, only to give up a few weeks later.(我们满怀热情地开始，却在几周后放弃)”以及下文“This approach, known as micro- habits, is changing the way people think about personal growth.(这种被称为微习惯的方法，正在改变人们对个人成长的看法)”可知，此处应衔接上文“难以坚持大目标”的问题，引出下文的微习惯策略，D选项“But a new strategy suggests starting much smaller.(但一种新的策略建议从小得多的目标开始)”中的new strategy指代下文的micro-habits，starting much smaller呼应微习惯的特点，符合语境。故选D项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Micro-habits are tiny actions that take less than two minutes to complete. Instead of promising to exercise for an hour every day, you start by doing just one push-up. Instead of aiming to read a whole book, you begin with a single page.(微习惯是只需不到两分钟就能完成的微小行动。与其承诺每天锻炼一小时，不如从做一个俯卧撑开始。与其目标是读完整本书，不如从读一页开始)”以及下文“They also require almost no motivation to start.(它们开始时几乎不需要动力)”可知，此处应介绍微习惯的特点，且与下文的also相呼应，G选项“They require a little time and energy.(它们只需要一点时间和精力)”中的a little time and energy与上文less than two minutes to complete相契合，They指代微习惯，符合语境。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“When we try to make big changes, our brains often refuse because the effort seems hard to bear.(当我们试图做出巨大改变时，我们的大脑往往会拒绝，因为这种努力似乎难以承受)”以及下文“Once the behavior becomes automatic, we can gradually increase the difficulty.(一旦这种行为变得自动化，我们就可以逐渐增加难度)”可知，此处应对比大改变和微习惯的不同，说明微习惯容易坚持，C选项“However, micro-habits are easy to maintain.(然而，微习惯很容易坚持)”中的However表转折，承接上文大改变难以坚持的问题，引出微习惯的优势，且与下文“逐渐增加难度”相衔接，符合语境。故选C项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“When you complete a tiny habit successfully, you experience a small sense of achievement.(当你成功完成一个微小的习惯时，你会体验到一种小小的成就感)”以及下文“It encourages you to keep going, creating a snowball effect that leads to bigger changes over time.(它鼓励你继续前进，创造一个滚雪球效应，随着时间的推移带来更大的改变)”可知，此处应说明成就感带来的影响，A选项“This feeling builds confidence and motivation.(这种感觉能建立信心和动力)”中的This feeling指代上文的small sense of achievement，confidence and motivation与下文encourages you to keep going相呼应，符合语境。故选A项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“So how can you start? Choose one small behavior you want to develop.(那么你该如何开始呢？选择一个你想培养的小行为)”以及下文“For example, if you want to practice gratitude, spend one minute each evening thinking about one thing you’re thankful for.(例如，如果你想培养感恩的习惯，每天晚上花一分钟想想你感恩的一件事)”可知，此处应介绍培养微习惯的具体做法，F选项“Then, connect it to an existing daily routine.(然后，把它和你现有的日常习惯联系起来)”中的Then承接上文“选择小行为”，connect it to an existing daily routine与下文的例子（每天晚上花一分钟）相契合，符合语境。故选F项。 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。 I was 60 when I started learning to play the concertina (六角手风琴).

She was excited to spend a year studying in France. Yet one thought bothered her throughout the flight: “Can they understand me?” Her fears proved justified. Within days of arriving in France, Holly felt completely lost. Simple tasks, like ordering coffee or asking for directions, became exhausting battles. She felt very lonely and missed home terribly. The only comfort came in a package from her mother. It was filled with Holly’s favorite treat: Skippy peanut butter, which was impossible to be found in France. She rushed to the post office to get the package. On the way, she even imagined herself opening the package and eating the comfort food right there! But at the counter, the attendant couldn’t speak any English at all. Holly switched to her awkward French. However, the attendant just shook her head. The more she repeated herself, the more frustrated — and hopeless — she felt. Obviously, she couldn’t understand Holly’s French, either. Just as Holly was about to break down in tears — not just over the peanut butter, but over everything: the loneliness, the endless struggle to be understood — a gentle voice came from behind, “Can I help you?” Holly turned to see a French woman about her mother’s age, with kind eyes and a warm smile. Her name was Jouve. After Holly explained her situation in English, Jouve placed a reassuring hand on Holly’s arm and spoke to the attendant in rapid, fluent French. Within two minutes, the package was handed over. Holly held it like a treasure. On their way to the parking lot, Holly poured out her heart — the language barrier, the isolation, the homesickness. Jouve listened quietly, her eyes full of sympathy. Before they parted, she asked, “Why not join my family for dinner this Sunday?” 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。 That meal changed everything. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Holly decided to pass on Jouve’s kindness to other international students. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 That meal changed everything. Stepping into Jouve’s warm and cozy home, Holly was instantly greeted with genuine warmth and kindness. Jouve’s family were all friendly and patient with her. They chatted slowly with simple French words, patiently helping Holly practice her pronunciation and daily expressions. They shared delicious homemade food and interesting local stories, making Holly feel fully relaxed and no longer lonely. For the first time since she arrived in France, she felt a strong sense of belonging and gained confidence in learning French and adapting to new life. Holly decided to pass on Jouve’s kindness to other international students. She volunteered to help new foreign students who struggled with language barriers and homesickness.
