Ada Lovelace had imagined the modern-day computer. The model was never built. However, Lovelace’s writings helped her become famous. People now consider the woman the world’s first computer programmer. The programme Lovelace wrote was to calculate an important number. However, the woman’s deeper influence was to see the potential of computing. The computer could go beyond calculating numbers, she wrote, to be used to create music and art. Later, this idea became the key concept of the Information Age. Lovelace was born in 1815 into a wealthy family. She showed an interest in math and mechanics (机械学) from a young age. With her mother’s help, Lovelace made friends with big thinkers of the day. When she was 17, she was introduced to the British inventor Charles Babbage. In the two decades that followed, the two kept writing to each other to discuss math and science. In 1843, when she was 27, Lovelace wrote her most influential article about computer science. She described how the computer would work and included a formula (公式) for calculating an important number. The formula is considered as the first computer programme. She also imagined a future in which computers could do jobs faster than humans. In many industries, Lovelace wrote, computers would supersede human workers. Now, people celebrate Lovelace’s achievements every year. Ada Lovelace Day is held on the second Tuesday of every October. Lovelace’s stories have been passed down from generation to generation. People use them to encourage young girls to do well in science subjects. There is no reason why girls can’t become successful scientists. Just remember the world’s first computer programmer was a woman! 4. What is the key concept of the Information Age? A. The computer will be used to write articles. B. The computer is mostly allowed to design artworks. C. The computer is capable of more than calculation. D. The computer can create better music than musicians. 5. How did Lovelace get the chance to make friends with big thinkers? A. By asking her classmates for help. B. Thanks to her mother’s assistance. C. Through her teacher’s introduction. D. By writing letters to experts. 6. What does the underlined word “supersede” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Take the place of. B. Take the benefit of. C. Take the use of. D. Take the meaning of. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How Ada Lovelace Changed the World B. The Life of a Famous Woman Scientist C. Ada Lovelace and Her Inventions D. Ada Lovelace: First Computer Programmer 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了世界上第一位计算机程序员Ada Lovelace的故事，包括她对计算机发展的设想、她的成长经历以及她的贡献对后世的影响，人们通过设立纪念日等方式纪念她，并借此鼓励年轻女孩投身科学领域。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The computer could go beyond calculating numbers, she wrote, to be used to create music and art. Later, this idea became the key concept of the Information Age.(她写道，计算机可以超越数字计算，用于创作音乐和艺术。后来，这个想法成了信息时代的关键概念。)”可知，信息时代的关键概念是计算机可以超越数字计算。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“With her mother’s help, Lovelace made friends with big thinkers of the day.(在她母亲的帮助下，Lovelace与当时的伟大思想家们交上了朋友。)”可知，Lovelace是通过母亲的帮助才有机会与伟大思想家们交朋友的。故选B。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“She also imagined a future in which computers could do jobs faster than humans.(她还设想了这样一个未来：在这个未来里，计算机的工作速度会比人类更快。)”可知，计算机将会取代人类劳动者，此处supersede意为“取代”，与take the place of(取代)意思相同。故选A。 【7题详解】 标题归纳题。根据第一段“However, Lovelace’s writings helped her become famous. People now consider the woman the world’s first computer programmer.(然而，Lovelace的著作让她声名鹊起。如今，人们将这位女性视为世界上第一位计算机程序员。)”以及下文围绕Ada Lovelace展开，重点讲述她在计算机领域的开创性贡献——编写了首个计算机程序，被公认为“世界上第一位计算机程序员”。选项“Ada Lovelace: First Computer Programmer(Ada Lovelace：世界首位计算机程序员)”直接点明核心身份与成就，贴合主旨。故选D。 C “Practice makes perfect” is a very popular expression. However, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea. One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least 10, 000 hours, they will reach “perfection”, or become an expert in their field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling book, Outliers: The Story of Success. He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10, 000 hours of practice before they became successful. Gladwell’s work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericsson stated that 10, 000 hours was an average figure. Some people needed far fewer than 10, 000 hours, and others many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential. He went on to explain the importance of “deliberate practice”, which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whole. A more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26% of reaching an expert level. Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. Another natural factor is physical superiority, which is especially evident in sports. IQ, personality attitude, and starting age are decisive, too. But becoming an expert doesn’t equal instant success, which also relies on social and environmental factors. In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement. Based on Ericsson’s research, here are some tips on how to practise effectively: be motivated; make specific and realistic goals; work outside your comfort zone; be consistent and persistent; and get plenty of rest! For those wanting to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is key-enjoy what you do and follow your passions. 8. How did Gladwell support his idea? A. By listing numbers. B. By using examples. C. By interviewing famous people. D. By mentioning other researchers. 9. Which of the following may Ericsson disagree with? A. Practice alone is far from enough. B. About 10, 000 hours of practice leads to success. C. Practice hours vary from person to person. D. Deliberate practice is much more effective. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The role of practice. B. Factors in creating experts. C. The importance of natural talent. D. Warnings for experts. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the idea “Practice makes perfect”? A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral. 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章论证了练习可能无法至完美，但刻意练习已经被证明能带来明显的提高。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10,000 hours of practice before they became successful.（他提到了披头士乐队和微软联合创始人比尔·盖茨。虽然他们似乎都很有天赋，但在成功之前，他们显然也投入了超过1万个小时的练习。）”可知，格拉德威尔是通过乐队和微软联合创始人为例子来支持他的1万小时理论。故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Firstly, Ericsson stated that 10,000 hours was an average figure. Some people needed far fewer than 10,000 hours, and others many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential.   He went on to explain the importance of ‘deliberate practice’, which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whole.（首先，爱立信表示，1万小时是一个平均数字。有些人需要的时间远远少于1万个小时，有些人则更多。更重要的是，爱立信说，只是大量练习是不够的；实践的类型和质量也很重要。他接着解释了“刻意练习”的重要性，刻意练习是指一个人深入练习一项技能的特定部分，而不是把一项技能作为一个整体来练习。）”可知，爱立信可能不同意一万个小时的练习通向成功这个观点。故选B项。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“A more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26% of reaching an expert level. Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. Another natural factor is physical superiority, which is especially evident in sports. IQ, personality, attitude, and starting age are decisive, too. But becoming an expert doesn’t equal instant success, which also relies on social and environmental factors.（普林斯顿大学最近的一项研究表明，实践只占到专家水平的26%。很多人说，天赋对成为专家有很大的影响。另一个自然因素是身体优势，这在体育运动中尤其明显。智商、性格、态度和起步年龄也是决定性因素。但成为专家并不等于一蹴而就，成功还取决于社会和环境因素。）”可知，这段主要讲的是成为专家的一些因素。故选B项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement. Based on Ericsson’s research, here are some tips on how to practise effectively: be motivated; make specific and realistic goals;   work outside your comfort zone; be consistent and persistent; and get plenty of rest! For those wanting to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is key－enjoy what you do and follow your passions.（总而言之，熟不能生巧，但刻意的练习已被证明能带来显著的进步。根据爱立信的研究，以下是一些有效练习的建议：积极主动；制定具体而现实的目标；在舒适区之外工作；始终如一，坚持不懈；好好休息！对于那些想成为某方面专家的人来说，要记住，动力是关键——享受你所做的事情，追随你的激情。）”可知，作者对“熟能生巧”这一观点持客观的态度。故选D项。 【点睛】 D Most adults’ earliest memories date back to preschool, not infancy (婴儿). The gap in our autobiography from when we were a baby is known as “infantile amnesia”, and it is not just due to normal forgetting over time. Two possible accounts exist for this phenomenon. First, infants may not be able to store memories. The hippocampus — a brain region key for memory — grows slowly in childhood. It may not work well enough for infants to keep memories, similar to adults with hippocampal damage who cannot store new memories. Another idea is that infants can store memories but lose access to them later. Studies on mice show their hippocampus stores early memories and keeps them into adulthood. To test this in humans, our lab used fMRI (a safe brain imaging tool) to study awake infants — something not done before. Given infants’ high activity level and short attention time, both of which make it difficult to collect good data from them. As a result, most fMRI research in infants has been conducted while they sleep. But this wasn’t an option for our investigations because memories are based on experiences in waking life. Through more than 400 sessions and countless insights from families, we developed specialized techniques to keep awake infants still, happy, and engaged. In a recent study, we showed 1-year-old infants photos of faces, objects and scenes during fMRI. Later, we gave them each familiar photo with a new one. If an infant looked longer at the familiar one, we knew they remembered it. We then checked brain data: the hippocampus was more active when infants viewed photos they later remembered. This proves the infant hippocampus can create short-term memories after a brief look, especially in 12- month-olds. Our findings support the “lost access” idea, but questions remain: How long do these memories last? Can infants remember complex events? Why do most earliest memories start at age 4-5 if memories form at 1? Answering these will help understand language learning, developmental disorders, parenting and even memory loss in aging or Alzheimer’s disease. 12. What is the primary focus of the second paragraph? A. Mouse brain development processes. B. Explanations about infantile amnesia. C. Experimental methods to study memory. D. Effects of hippocampal damage in adults. 13. Why is studying awake infants important for memory research using fMRI? A. Family involvement became unnecessary. B. Data collection speed increased significantly. C. Sleep studies cannot detect any infant memory. D. It allows studying memories formed during wakefulness. 14. What key finding showed 12-month-olds form short-term memories? A. Their brain activity was like adults’. B. They remained calm during brain scans. C. They looked longer at new photos than familiar ones. D. Their hippocampus was more active for remembered photos. 15. In which section of a magazine can we read the text? A. Education. B. Science. C. Culture. D. Health. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要探讨婴儿期健忘症这一现象，介绍了关于该现象的两种可能解释，并阐述了研究团队通过对清醒婴儿进行功能性磁共振成像（fMRI）研究来验证相关观点，其研究发现支持“记忆无法提取”的观点，同时提出了一些有待进一步研究的问题。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“Two possible accounts exist for this phenomenon. First, infants may not be able to store memories. The hippocampus — a brain region key for memory — grows slowly in childhood. It may not work well enough for infants to keep memories, similar to adults with hippocampal damage who cannot store new memories. Another idea is that infants can store memories but lose access to them later.(对于这一现象，存在两种可能的解释。其一，婴儿可能无法存储记忆。海马体——大脑中对记忆至关重要的一个区域——在儿童时期发育缓慢。对婴儿来说，它可能无法良好运作以留存记忆，这与海马体受损、无法存储新记忆的成年人情况类似。另一种观点是，婴儿能够存储记忆，但随后却无法提取这些记忆)”可知，该段主要聚焦于对婴儿期健忘症现象的解释。故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But this wasn’t an option for our investigations because memories are based on experiences in waking life.(但这（在婴儿睡觉时进行研究）不是我们研究的选择，因为记忆是基于清醒时的生活经历)”可知，使用fMRI研究清醒的婴儿对记忆研究很重要，是因为这样能够研究在清醒状态下形成的记忆。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“We then checked brain data: the hippocampus was more active when infants viewed photos they later remembered. This proves the infant hippocampus can create short-term memories after a brief look, especially in 12-month-olds.(然后我们检查大脑数据：当婴儿看到他们后来记住的照片时，海马体更加活跃。这证明婴儿的海马体在短暂观看后能够形成短期记忆，尤其是12个月大的婴儿)”可知，12个月大的婴儿对记住的照片海马体更活跃，这一关键发现表明他们能形成短期记忆。故选D项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段“Most adults’ earliest memories date back to preschool, not infancy (婴儿). The gap in our autobiography from when we were a baby is known as “infantile amnesia”, and it is not just due to normal forgetting over time.(大多数成年人最早的记忆都能追溯到学龄前，而非婴儿时期。我们的人生记忆中这段婴儿阶段的空白被称为“婴儿期健忘症”，且这一现象并非单纯由随时间推移的正常遗忘造成。)”可知，本文围绕婴儿期健忘症展开，介绍了相关研究背景、实验方法和研究发现，属于科学研究范畴，最可能出现在杂志的科学板块。故选B项。 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。 Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound ____16____ Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. ____17____ Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. ____18____ Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. ____19____ Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. ____20____ A. Poems are meant to be heard. B. Learn the background of the poem. C. Compare poems by different authors. D. Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E. Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F. If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G. Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. 【答案】16. A 17. B 18. F 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了如何深入欣赏和理解诗歌的方法，包括大声朗读感受节奏和声音、了解诗歌的背景、接受诗歌的模糊性、将诗歌与个人生活联系起来等。 【16题详解】 根据下文“Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood.(慢慢地大声朗读这首诗。留意它的韵律、韵脚或重复的声音。例如，埃德加・爱伦・坡的《乌鸦》采用了紧张的节拍，而兰斯顿・休斯的《梦想》则有着柔和的节奏。它们听起来是欢快的、悲伤的，还是急切的呢？一首诗的“音乐性”往往反映了它的情感基调。)”可知，下文内容围绕大声朗读诗歌展开。选项A“Poems are meant to be heard.(诗歌就是用来被聆听的。)”强调了诗歌需要被听到，与大声朗读相呼应，符合该段语境。故选A。 【17题详解】 空处为小标题。为本段主要内容。根据下文“Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning.(理解一首诗的历史、文化或作者生平背景可以丰富对它的解读。弄清楚这首诗创作于何时，或者诗人的生活是怎样的，这会对你有很大帮助。但也不必过于紧张——即使只是快速地在谷歌上搜索一下也能增添对诗歌的理解。)”可知，本段主要讲的是了解诗歌的背景知识。选项B“Learn the background of the poem.(了解诗歌的背景)”符合该段主旨，与本段内容相符。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Poems don’t always have one right explanation.(诗歌并不总是只有一个正确的解释。)”以及下文“Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调).(也许莎士比亚的《十四行诗第18首》既是一首爱情诗，也是对陈词滥调的一种调侃。)”可知，上下文都在说诗歌理解的不确定性。选项F“If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses.(如果一行诗让你感到困惑，写下你的猜测。)”与接受困惑以及诗歌解释的不确定性相契合，符合上下文语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend.(让你的情感引导你的理解。如果一行诗让你想起一段个人经历，写下你的想法，或者和朋友分享一下。)”可知，上文强调了诗歌与个人的联系。选项D“Poetry is alive when it speaks to you.(当诗歌与你产生共鸣时，它就是有生命力的。)”进一步说明了诗歌与个人的关联，符合该段语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly.(欣赏诗歌既是一门艺术，也是一种实践——需要关注诗歌的形式、创作背景以及个人的思考感悟。正如艾略特所写的那样，诗歌“在被理解之前就已经传达了信息”，它邀请我们不断回味、重新思考，并不断重新发现它的魅力。)”可知，上文总结了欣赏诗歌的要点以及诗歌的魅力。选项G“Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it.(拿起一首诗，大声朗读，让自己享受它的魔力。)”呼应了前文提到的欣赏诗歌的方式，同时鼓励读者去体验诗歌的魅力，符合文章结尾的语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，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。 At 18 years old, freshly graduating out of high school, I had my heart set on Pepperdine University.

D 【解析】 【导语】作者大一深陷强烈思乡情绪，身心受扰、考试失利。她休学转学、更换专业并独自居住，跳出舒适区，自主规划人生，最终摆脱思乡之苦，找到了治愈乡愁的办法。 【21题详解】 考查动词。句意：父母收拾好我的行李，开车送我去加利福尼亚州的马里布。A. packed收拾；B. bought购买；C. fetched取回；D. carried搬运。根据前文“At 18 years old, freshly graduating out of high school, I had my heart set on Pepperdine University.”可知，作者高中毕业前往大学，父母为其收拾随身物品。 【22题详解】 考查形容词。句意：父母一离开，我开始参加新生入学教育，一种熟悉的感觉涌上心头：想家。A. awkward尴尬的；B. uncertain不确定的；C. familiar熟悉的；D. different不同的。根据后文“I’d experienced something similar at a sleep-away summer camp when I was little”可知，作者小时候露营时有过类似想家的感受，所以这种感觉很熟悉。 【23题详解】 考查动词。句意：但这一次，这种情绪的强烈程度翻了十倍，真的让我身体难受。A. slowed减缓；B. increased增强，加剧；C. adjusted调整；D. widened拓宽。根据后文“I could barely eat, my stomach hurt almost all the time”可知，作者吃不下饭、持续胃痛，思乡情绪比儿时强烈得多。 【24题详解】 考查形容词。句意：但这一次，这种情绪的强烈程度翻了十倍，真的让我身体难受。A. excited兴奋的；B. sick难受、生病不适；C. curious好奇的；D. disappointed失望的。根据后文“I could barely eat, my stomach hurt almost all the time”可知，此处指思乡带来生理不适，make sb. sick，表示“使人难受”。 【25题详解】 考查名词。句意：我几乎吃不下东西，胃几乎时时刻刻都疼，内心满是焦虑。A. challenges挑战；B. complaints抱怨；C. anxiety焦虑；D. trouble麻烦。根据前文“I could barely eat, my stomach hurt almost all the time”可知，严重的思乡情绪折磨身心，因此作者内心充满不安焦虑。 【26题详解】 考查动词。句意：到感恩节假期时，我的思乡情绪仍没有好转，好几门考试都不及格。A. sat参加（考试）；B. passed通过；C. quit放弃；D. failed不及格。根据前文“By Thanksgiving Break, I still hadn’t cured it”可知，思乡带来巨大身心折磨且一直为治愈，影响学习，从而导致考试失利。 【27题详解】 考查名词。句意：但没人告诉你，寒假过后，第二波思乡情绪会再次袭来，强度丝毫不减甚至更甚。A. wave一波（情绪）；B. chance机会；C. choice选择；D. dream梦想。根据后文“of homesickness”可知，此处形容思乡情绪分两次袭来，a wave of表示“一波……”。 【28题详解】 考查名词。句意：但没人告诉你，寒假过后，第二波思乡情绪会再次袭来，强度丝毫不减甚至更甚。A. strength力量；B. height高度；C. progress进步；D. intensity强度。根据前文“This time, the intensity of the feeling was 　　　　 ten-fold”可知，此处指思乡情绪的强烈程度， intensity为原词复现。 【29题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这让人十分沮丧，因为无论我做什么、如何努力摆脱，它总会萦绕在脑海角落，如影随形。A. comfortable舒适的；B. regretful懊悔的；C. discouraging令人沮丧的；D. convincing令人信服的。根据后文“because no matter what I did, or how I tried to move past it, it was always there in the corner of my mind 　　　　 my every move”可知，作者想尽办法都无法缓解思乡之苦，所以内心倍感挫败沮丧。 【30题详解】 考查动词。句意：课堂上、食堂里，甚至和朋友去海边时，它都跟着我的一举一动。A. focusing聚焦；B. following跟随；C. forcing强迫；D. showing展示。根据后文“during class, at the dining hall, even when I was going to the beach with friends”可知，思乡情绪时刻伴随作者，跟随她所有行动。 【31题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：之后我转学到圣地亚哥大学并把专业从环境与海洋科学改成哲学与传播学。A. transferred to转学到；B. resigned from辞去；C. appealed to呼吁；D. separated from与……分开。根据前文“Halfway through my second semester at Pepperdine, I decided to take time off from school. I moved to San Diego. ”可知，作者从佩珀代因大学休学搬到圣地亚哥，应是进入另一所大学就读。 【32题详解】 考查动词。句意：之后我转学到圣地亚哥大学并把专业从环境与海洋科学改成哲学与传播学。A. changed更改；B. loved喜爱；C. pursued攻读；D. picked挑选。根据后文“from Environmental and Ocean Science to Philosophy and Communications”可知，此处指作者更换了专业。 【33题详解】 考查副词。句意：最终，我克服了思乡病。A.

After all, if it is so small, it cannot possibly be that ___36___ (harm), can it? Nowadays, the answer is certainly “Yes, it can!” With the growing use of plastic bags and the ___37___ (rise) number of smokers, there is more litter being produced now than ever before. Although cigarette butts are small, they are bad for the environment. These find their way into the water supply ___38___ they affect water quality and endanger plants and animals. Cigarette butts can take up to 25 years to break down, and the toxic chemicals add up to a large amount with so many cigarette butts ___39___ (litter). So, if people want to smoke, they should dispose of the butts properly in a rubbish bin. Plastic bags are another common form of litter that is dangerous to the environment. They are easily blown ___40___ wind and float in water, so they can travel long ___41___ (distance). We should not let plastic bags become litter. We should use fewer plastic bags, and reuse and recycle ___42___ we have already used. One way to reduce the use of plastic bags is to charge for them. Shops used to give plastic bags for free. But in some countries, including China, customers ___43___ (charge) for each bag. Some shops also have ___44___ “bag-for-life” scheme. They sell stronger bags that can be reused, and they replace them for free if the bags ever break. Waste is a big problem for the environment, so we need to do something. Not littering at all or cleaning up “small waste” ____45____ (save) money spent on throwing litter properly. However, it would be better not to smoke or use plastic bags at all. 【答案】36. harmful 37. rising 38. where 39. littered 40. by 41. distances 42. what 43. are charged 44. a 45. saves 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了小垃圾对环境的危害，尤其是烟头和塑料袋，并提出了减少塑料袋使用的方法以及呼吁人们不要乱扔垃圾。 【36题详解】 考查形容词。句意：毕竟，如果它这么小，不可能有那么大的危害，不是吗？分析句子结构，be动词后需接形容词作表语，harm的形容词形式为harmful。故填harmful。 【37题详解】 考查形容词。句意：如今，随着塑料袋使用量的增加和吸烟者数量的上升，产生的垃圾比以往任何时候都多。空处修饰名词number，需用形容词作定语，rise的形容词形式为rising，意为“上升的”。故填rising。 【38题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：它们进入供水系统，在那里影响水质，危害动植物。空处引导定语从句，先行词为the water supply，从句缺少地点状语，需用关系副词where引导。故填where。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：烟头可能需要长达25年的时间才能分解，而且有这么多烟头被乱扔，有毒化学物质的总量很大。分析句子结构，“with + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”为固定结构，cigarette butts和litter之间为动宾关系，需用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填littered。 【40题详解】 考查介词。句意：它们很容易被风吹走，在水中漂浮，所以它们可以传播很长的距离。根据句意，此处表示“被风”，需用介词by。故填by。 【41题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：它们很容易被风吹走，在水中漂浮，所以它们可以传播很长的距离。distance为可数名词，long前没有不定冠词，结合句意，此处需用复数形式。故填distances。 【42题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：我们应该减少使用塑料袋，并重复利用和回收我们已经使用过的。空处引导宾语从句，从句缺少宾语，需用连接代词what引导。故填what。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态、语态和主谓一致。句意：但在包括中国在内的一些国家，顾客每个袋子都要付费。此处陈述客观事实，使用一般现在时，主语customers和charge之间为被动关系，需用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为复数名词，be动词用are。故填are charged。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：一些商店也有“终身袋”计划。scheme为可数名词，此处表示泛指，“bag-for-life”发音以辅音音素开头，需用不定冠词a。故填a。 【45题详解】 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：完全不乱扔垃圾或清理“小垃圾”可以节省妥善处理垃圾的费用。此处陈述客观事实，使用一般现在时，主语为“Not littering at all or cleaning up “small waste””，动名词短语作主语，谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填saves。 第三节 单词拼写（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分） 46.

I expected to see drawings of turkeys and pumpkin pictures, symbols of the holiday they might enjoy. Most of the children did draw exactly that — scenes of feasts and family gatherings. Bright colours filled their pages, showing smiling families around dinner tables laden with food. But among this festive atmosphere, there was Lucas, a quiet and sad boy who often stayed by my side while others played at recess (课间休息). Lucas was different from the other children. His eyes, always filled with a sadness I could only guess at, seemed to carry the weight of the world. I often found him standing close to me during recess, his small hand sometimes slipping into mine as we watched the other children play. “Take my hand, Lucas, we’ll go outside,” I’d say gently, and he’d follow, his trust obvious in his grip (紧握). When it was Lucas’s turn to share his drawing, he held up his paper, showing a big hand. Just a hand, with nothing else around it. The simplicity of it stirred the imagination of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, explaining that farmers raise turkeys and provide food. Another suggested it was the hand of a police officer, symbolizing protection and care. The discussion went on and on, each child offering a different interpretation (解读). As the children moved on to other assignments, the image of the hand remained in my mind. I couldn’t help but feel there was something more to Lucas’s drawing, something deeper and more personal. I approached his desk, my heart heavy with curiosity and concern. “Whose hand is it, Lucas?” I asked softly. 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。 “It’s yours, Miss White,” he whispered, looking away shyly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ During storytime, I let him turn the pages as I read. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考答案 “It’s yours, Miss White,” he whispered, looking away shyly. I froze for a moment, all those little moments with Lucas rushing back to me: the recess when he stood quietly by my side and slipped his small hand into mine for comfort. It turned out that Lucas was most thankful for my hand, the hand that had comforted him and shown him that he wasn’t alone. Tears welled up in my eyes. I was so moved. I never realized my casual daily care could be such warm light for this lonely little boy. During storytime, I let him turn the pages as I read. When he slipped his hand into mine, I gave it a gentle squeeze. His eyes met mine, and for the first time, I saw not sadness, but happiness. After that, I encouraged him to play with peers. Little by little, soft smiles appeared on Lucas’s face more often, and he even began to join his classmates’ games during recess. I finally understood that the true meaning of Thanksgiving lies in the small kindness we give without expectation, which can warm a person’s whole world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，感恩节快到了，作者给学生们布置了一个作业——画一幅与感恩有关的画。所有孩子都是画与节日有关联的象征，除了Lucas，他画的是一只手。在课堂分享作品时，大家都对Lucas画的手感到好奇。最后Lucas说这是作者的手，因为在许多课间休息感到悲伤和孤独的时刻，作者的手都牵着他。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句““这是你的，White小姐，”他轻声说，害羞地扭过头去。”可知，第一段可描写作者在得知是自己的手之后的反应。 ②由续写第二段首句“在读故事的时候，我让他在我读的时候翻页。”可知，第二段可描写作者对Lucas的具体帮助，Lucas发生的积极变化以及作者的感悟。 2. 段落续写： 询问是谁的手——回忆涌上心头——感动地热泪盈眶——帮助和鼓励——Lucas发生积极变化——感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①安慰：comfort/console ②涌出：well up/spring up/gush out ③意识到：realize/recognize ④出现：appear/come out 情绪类 ①感谢的：thankful/grateful ②感动的：moved/touched 【点睛】【高分句型1】I froze for a moment, all those little moments with Lucas rushing back to me: the recess when he stood quietly by my side and slipped his small hand into mine for comfort.(使用了独立主格结构、when引导定语从句) 【高分句型2】I finally understood that the true meaning of Thanksgiving lies in the small kindness we give without expectation, which can warm a person’s whole world.

However, Lovelace’s writings helped her become famous. People now consider the woman the world’s first computer programmer. The programme Lovelace wrote was to calculate an important number. However, the woman’s deeper influence was to see the potential of computing. The computer could go beyond calculating numbers, she wrote, to be used to create music and art. Later, this idea became the key concept of the Information Age. Lovelace was born in 1815 into a wealthy family. She showed an interest in math and mechanics (机械学) from a young age. With her mother’s help, Lovelace made friends with big thinkers of the day. When she was 17, she was introduced to the British inventor Charles Babbage. In the two decades that followed, the two kept writing to each other to discuss math and science. In 1843, when she was 27, Lovelace wrote her most influential article about computer science. She described how the computer would work and included a formula (公式) for calculating an important number. The formula is considered as the first computer programme. She also imagined a future in which computers could do jobs faster than humans. In many industries, Lovelace wrote, computers would supersede human workers. Now, people celebrate Lovelace’s achievements every year. Ada Lovelace Day is held on the second Tuesday of every October. Lovelace’s stories have been passed down from generation to generation. People use them to encourage young girls to do well in science subjects. There is no reason why girls can’t become successful scientists. Just remember the world’s first computer programmer was a woman! 4. What is the key concept of the Information Age? A. The computer will be used to write articles. B. The computer is mostly allowed to design artworks. C. The computer is capable of more than calculation. D. The computer can create better music than musicians. 5. How did Lovelace get the chance to make friends with big thinkers? A. By asking her classmates for help. B. Thanks to her mother’s assistance. C. Through her teacher’s introduction. D. By writing letters to experts. 6. What does the underlined word “supersede” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Take the place of. B. Take the benefit of. C. Take the use of. D. Take the meaning of. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How Ada Lovelace Changed the World B. The Life of a Famous Woman Scientist C. Ada Lovelace and Her Inventions D. Ada Lovelace: First Computer Programmer C “Practice makes perfect” is a very popular expression. However, can we take this saying literally? Many scientific studies have sought to either prove or disprove this idea. One popular theory is that if a person practises for at least 10, 000 hours, they will reach “perfection”, or become an expert in their field. This theory was made famous by Malcolm Gladwell in his 2008 best-selling book, Outliers: The Story of Success. He mentioned the music group The Beatles and Microsoft co-creator Bill Gates. Although they all seemed to have lots of natural talent, they also clearly put in over 10, 000 hours of practice before they became successful. Gladwell’s work was largely based on research done by Anders Ericsson, who argued that Gladwell misinterpreted his research. Firstly, Ericsson stated that 10, 000 hours was an average figure. Some people needed far fewer than 10, 000 hours, and others many more. More importantly, Ericsson said that just practising a lot was not enough; the type and quality of practice was also essential. He went on to explain the importance of “deliberate practice”, which is when a person practises a specific part of a skill in depth rather than practising a skill as a whole. A more recent study from Princeton University stated that practice only accounted for up to 26% of reaching an expert level. Many people say that natural talent has a large influence on becoming an expert. Another natural factor is physical superiority, which is especially evident in sports. IQ, personality attitude, and starting age are decisive, too. But becoming an expert doesn’t equal instant success, which also relies on social and environmental factors. In conclusion, practice may not make perfect, but deliberate practice has been shown to lead to significant improvement. Based on Ericsson’s research, here are some tips on how to practise effectively: be motivated; make specific and realistic goals; work outside your comfort zone; be consistent and persistent; and get plenty of rest! For those wanting to become an expert in something, remember that being motivated is key-enjoy what you do and follow your passions. 8. How did Gladwell support his idea? A. By listing numbers. B. By using examples. C. By interviewing famous people. D. By mentioning other researchers. 9. Which of the following may Ericsson disagree with? A. Practice alone is far from enough. B. About 10, 000 hours of practice leads to success. C. Practice hours vary from person to person. D. Deliberate practice is much more effective. 10. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. The role of practice. B. Factors in creating experts. C. The importance of natural talent. D. Warnings for experts. 11. What is the author’s attitude to the idea “Practice makes perfect”? A. Favorable. B. Intolerant. C. Doubtful. D. Neutral. D Most adults’ earliest memories date back to preschool, not infancy (婴儿). The gap in our autobiography from when we were a baby is known as “infantile amnesia”, and it is not just due to normal forgetting over time. Two possible accounts exist for this phenomenon. First, infants may not be able to store memories. The hippocampus — a brain region key for memory — grows slowly in childhood. It may not work well enough for infants to keep memories, similar to adults with hippocampal damage who cannot store new memories. Another idea is that infants can store memories but lose access to them later. Studies on mice show their hippocampus stores early memories and keeps them into adulthood. To test this in humans, our lab used fMRI (a safe brain imaging tool) to study awake infants — something not done before. Given infants’ high activity level and short attention time, both of which make it difficult to collect good data from them. As a result, most fMRI research in infants has been conducted while they sleep. But this wasn’t an option for our investigations because memories are based on experiences in waking life. Through more than 400 sessions and countless insights from families, we developed specialized techniques to keep awake infants still, happy, and engaged. In a recent study, we showed 1-year-old infants photos of faces, objects and scenes during fMRI. Later, we gave them each familiar photo with a new one. If an infant looked longer at the familiar one, we knew they remembered it. We then checked brain data: the hippocampus was more active when infants viewed photos they later remembered. This proves the infant hippocampus can create short-term memories after a brief look, especially in 12- month-olds. Our findings support the “lost access” idea, but questions remain: How long do these memories last? Can infants remember complex events? Why do most earliest memories start at age 4-5 if memories form at 1? Answering these will help understand language learning, developmental disorders, parenting and even memory loss in aging or Alzheimer’s disease. 12. What is the primary focus of the second paragraph? A. Mouse brain development processes. B. Explanations about infantile amnesia. C. Experimental methods to study memory. D. Effects of hippocampal damage in adults. 13. Why is studying awake infants important for memory research using fMRI? A. Family involvement became unnecessary. B. Data collection speed increased significantly. C. Sleep studies cannot detect any infant memory. D. It allows studying memories formed during wakefulness. 14. What key finding showed 12-month-olds form short-term memories? A. Their brain activity was like adults’. B. They remained calm during brain scans. C. They looked longer at new photos than familiar ones. D. Their hippocampus was more active for remembered photos. 15. In which section of a magazine can we read the text? A. Education. B. Science. C. Culture. D. Health. 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。 Poetry, with its rhythmic language and layered meanings, invites readers to explore emotions, ideas, and beauty beyond the literal. To fully engage with a poem, consider these methods to deepen your appreciation and understanding. Read aloud for rhythm and sound ____16____ Read the poem aloud slowly. Notice the rhythm, rhymes, or repeating sounds. For example, Edgar Allan Poe’s The Raven uses a tense beat, while Langston Hughes’ Dreams has a gentle flow. Do they sound cheerful, sad, or urgent? The “music” of a poem often mirrors its mood. ____17____ Understanding a poem’s historical, cultural, or biographical context enriches interpretation. It will help you a lot to find out when the poem was written or what the poet’s life was like. But don’t stress — even a quick Google search can add meaning. Accept confusion Poems don’t always have one right explanation. ____18____ Maybe Shakespeare’s Sonnet 18 is both a love poem and a joke about clichés (陈词滥调). Discuss with classmates — different views make poems more interesting! Let uncertainty spark curiosity. Connect the poem to your life Let your emotions guide your understanding. If a line reminds you of a personal experience, write down your thoughts or share them with a friend. ____19____ Poetry isn’t just about analysis — it’s about feeling and imagination. Appreciating poetry is both an art and a practice — requiring attention to form, context, and personal reflection. As Eliot wrote, poetry “communicates before it is understood”, inviting us to return, rethink, and rediscover its magic endlessly. ____20____ A. Poems are meant to be heard. B. Learn the background of the poem. C. Compare poems by different authors. D. Poetry is alive when it speaks to you. E. Practice memorizing your favorite lines. F. If a line feels puzzling, write down your guesses. G. Grab a poem, read it aloud, and let yourself enjoy the magic of it. 第三部分 语言运用（共三节，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。 At 18 years old, freshly graduating out of high school, I had my heart set on Pepperdine University.

Nowadays, the answer is certainly “Yes, it can!” With the growing use of plastic bags and the ___37___ (rise) number of smokers, there is more litter being produced now than ever before. Although cigarette butts are small, they are bad for the environment. These find their way into the water supply ___38___ they affect water quality and endanger plants and animals. Cigarette butts can take up to 25 years to break down, and the toxic chemicals add up to a large amount with so many cigarette butts ___39___ (litter).

We should use fewer plastic bags, and reuse and recycle ___42___ we have already used. One way to reduce the use of plastic bags is to charge for them. Shops used to give plastic bags for free. But in some countries, including China, customers ___43___ (charge) for each bag. Some shops also have ___44___ “bag-for-life” scheme. They sell stronger bags that can be reused, and they replace them for free if the bags ever break. Waste is a big problem for the environment, so we need to do something. Not littering at all or cleaning up “small waste” ____45____ (save) money spent on throwing litter properly.

I expected to see drawings of turkeys and pumpkin pictures, symbols of the holiday they might enjoy. Most of the children did draw exactly that — scenes of feasts and family gatherings. Bright colours filled their pages, showing smiling families around dinner tables laden with food. But among this festive atmosphere, there was Lucas, a quiet and sad boy who often stayed by my side while others played at recess (课间休息). Lucas was different from the other children. His eyes, always filled with a sadness I could only guess at, seemed to carry the weight of the world. I often found him standing close to me during recess, his small hand sometimes slipping into mine as we watched the other children play. “Take my hand, Lucas, we’ll go outside,” I’d say gently, and he’d follow, his trust obvious in his grip (紧握). When it was Lucas’s turn to share his drawing, he held up his paper, showing a big hand. Just a hand, with nothing else around it. The simplicity of it stirred the imagination of his classmates. Whose hand could it be? One child guessed it was the hand of a farmer, explaining that farmers raise turkeys and provide food. Another suggested it was the hand of a police officer, symbolizing protection and care. The discussion went on and on, each child offering a different interpretation (解读). As the children moved on to other assignments, the image of the hand remained in my mind. I couldn’t help but feel there was something more to Lucas’s drawing, something deeper and more personal. I approached his desk, my heart heavy with curiosity and concern. “Whose hand is it, Lucas?” I asked softly. 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。 “It’s yours, Miss White,” he whispered, looking away shyly. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ During storytime, I let him turn the pages as I read. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
