The country has quite a detailed way of sorting their waste-down to the color of glass waste, the type of paper, the separate bin for metals, etc. Here below are what you should know about Germany’s waste sorting system： ◇You are expected to gather your waste in your apartment/housing area’s local public garbage bins. ◇There are commonly several types of public garbage bins available in the German’s apartment/housing areas： Blue bin — for paper and cardboard Green and white bin — for glass, different bins for differently colored glass, not available for holiday decorations and lights Yellow/orange bin — for plastic and metals Brown bin — for goods that can be changed naturally by bacteria into substances that don’t harm the environment, like leftovers, fruit and vegetables Gray/black bin — for everything else that can’t be recycled such as used cat litter and animal waste ◇Some items don’t belong in these public garbage bins. Items like used batteries, electronics, unused paints, and lights must be returned to the special agent/locations so they can be properly recycled. Other items such as clothes, shoes, and oversized rubbish and furniture are advised to be donated or sold. ◇There’s this thing called Pfand in Germany, a certain part of the price for a bottled drink that you get back if you send back the bottle to certified (有资历的) shops. German law requires shops over a certain size selling bottled drinks have a Pfandruckgabestelle, or place for bottles with deposits (押金). These bottles usually made of glass or plastic will be refilled. Of course, there’re strict health regulations. 21. Which bin should the fallen leaves be classified into？ A. The blue bin. B. The brown bin. C. The grey/black bin. D. The green and white bin. 22. How can Germans deal with some used sneakers？ A. By returning it to special agents. B. By placing it in a specific location. C. By giving it away to those in need. D. By donating it to a Pfandruckgabestelle. 23. What is the aim of Pfand？ A. To collect money for some shops. B. To help shops reuse plastic or glass. C. To reduce the broken bottles. D. To encourage bottles to be returned. B In the livestreaming (直播) channel of Yang Weiyun, no singing or dancing is performed nor are products sold. Yang, 74 years old, teaches children Pinyin, reading and writing, something that has been most familiar to her for the past 50 years. But this time, her students are mostly adults.  In retirement, Yang also wanted to do something meaningful. The rise of short video platforms gave her the idea of continuing her education career through livestreaming online. She opened her livestreaming account in May 2021 and offered free Pinyin courses designed for illiterate (不识字的) adults ever since.  “Many illiterate adults didn’t have the chance to go to school when they were young. They are the ones in urgent need of becoming literate. I wanted to give them a new starting point,” Yang said. Considering that most of the adult students have to make time to attend the lessons, Yang holds two livestream classes every day starting at 8:30 am and 8:30 pm. Her livestreaming channel offers an easy and private way for those who want to overcome adult illiteracy. Now she has nearly 400,000 followers on the short video platform.  Zhang Mei is among the students who benefit from Yang’s livestream lessons. She was born and raised in the countryside and had never been to school. She found illiteracy brought challenges to her city life. She couldn’t find suitable work. She also couldn’t fill in forms or read the assignment from teachers for her children. She watches Yang’s livestreaming whenever there is spare time. Now she can read Chinese characters if they are marked with Pinyin and knows how to write her name. She has also found a job.  Yang said she tried her best to figure out what ways the students could learn and remember better, and her biggest wish now is to see these students graduate from her classes. 24. What has Yang been doing after her retirement? A. Designing classes for illiterate adults at schools. B. Engaging herself in relieving adult illiteracy online. C. Helping people from the countryside find suitable jobs. D. Promoting educational products on a short video platform. 25. Why does Yang hold two livestream classes in two different time periods? A. To finish her teaching plan on time. B. To offer convenience to her students. C. To meet the requirements of platforms. D. To attract more followers for her channel. 26. Why is Zhang Mei mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To praise her efforts made in overcoming adult illiteracy. B. To show the popularity of Yang Weiyun’s teaching channel. C. To present the challenges facing illiterate adults in modern city life. D. To highlight the effects Yang’s livestream lessons bring to her viewers. 27. Which of the following can best describe Yang Weiyun? A. Strict. B. Humble. C. Dedicated. D. Easygoing. C Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher. If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let the other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything. Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice of anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing. If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达) of information, correspondence (通信), means (方式) of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note. When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse. Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble. Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, tell the other person how you feel — listening is the key to communication. 28. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is ________ than with children. A. more difficult B. much easier C. less interesting D. more interesting 29. The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means ________. A. keep up with others B. move along smoothly C. distance yourself from others D. come closer to each other 30. The example in Paragraph 6 shows that _________. A. Sophie is very polite to her parents B. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late D. communication is the solution to misunderstanding 31. All the following statements are correct except “________”. A. Communication is a two-way matter. B. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing. C. If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know. D. When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them. D “What is your name?” is a question most frequently asked when people meet for the first time. But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu (秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn’t stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It’s okay, professor,” I shrugged (耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. At first, I hesitated because of the previous awkward moments. But then I decided to take the opportunity. “In Chinese, ‘Qiu’ means ‘autumn’ and ‘Yu’ means ‘rain.’ In my culture, the autumn rain nourishes the earth and brings people harvest.” The professor nodded and to my surprise, many classmates began to mimic the sound and the rhythm of my name. Their interest and effort made me feel proud of our culture. I came to know that my name is not only a symbol, but also a doorway to Chinese culture. Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. “What a poetic name you’ve got!” one girl said. “Could you teach us to say it correctly?” another classmate asked. “Maybe you could share more about Chinese culture with us sometime.” This time, I didn’t shrug. I talked with them with extreme patience and warmth. Their curiosity and laughter made me realize that sharing our cultural identity is meaningful. From then on, I began to see my name as a bridge to connect different worlds. 32. Why was the author’s name a challenge for native English speakers? A. Because it was too long to remember. B. Because its pronunciation was unfamiliar to them. C. Because they were not interested in foreign names. D. Because the author refused to explain it to them. 33. What did the author do after the awkward incident in the lecture? A. He decided to change his name to an English one. B. He continued to correct people’s pronunciation patiently. C. He avoided explaining the pronunciation of his name anymore. D. He asked the professor to help him introduce his name. 34. The word “nourishes” in Paragraph 6 most probably means ________. A. destroys B. feeds and helps grow C. washes away D. cools down 35. What was the change in the classmates’ attitude after the author explained the meaning of his name? A. They became more curious and respectful. B. They thought it was too poetic to be true. C. They felt sorry for their previous impatience. D. They lost interest in Chinese culture. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文填空，从短文后的选项中选出能天热空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。 Forget your keys again? Can’t memorize what the exam will cover? Memory troubles are no big deal. You can fix them with simple strategies. ____36____ Strategy 1: Make meaningful connections When you’re remembering new information, even random, unconnected facts, the brain links details to stored information. So, the easiest way is to make it meaningful by connecting to what you know and making sense within context. ____37____ For example, people find it easier to remember new vocabulary if they translate concepts into their own words. Strategy 2: Space out your study sessions When you’re cramming for a test, spacing out sessions where you’re reviewing foreign language vocabulary or memorizing flashcards can help your brain store memories more efficiently. ____38____ Spaced repetition works because new information initially goes to short-term memory and consolidating it into long-term memory takes time and happens during rest. Strategy 3: Engage your senses When you want to remember a moment, engaging your senses during learning contributes to forming vivid recollections of an experience. ____39____ To find them, you must use your memory to compete with all the other times you’ve put them down. Next time you set your keys aside, focus on the unique aspects of this particular moment, like the sights or smells. These sensory experiences will create a distinct memory to aid later recall. Strategy 4: Journey through the memory palace The memory palace is an ancient technique that, studies show, can enhance recall. It is effective especially in remembering grocery lists. ____40____ As you walk through it, create an association between the items to be bought and specific spots. Then imagine yourself “walking” your route — each spot reminds you of the item. A. They’re tricky in diverse aspects. B. You might as well train your senses. C. Take misplacing your keys for instance. D. This can be done through personal narratives. E. But they depend on what you want to remember. F. Start by picturing a familiar space like your home. G. You need to revisit information at increasing time gaps. 第三部分：语言应用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 I used to be 20kg overweight and unfit.

Posters were displayed at the gate, calling for residents to join hands in planting flowers, growing vegetables, and maintaining the environment. The idea of turning an abandoned piece of land into a green garden immediately appealed to me. I phoned my two close friends, Mike and Lily, who lived in the same neighborhood, and invited them to participate. To my delight, both agreed, excited to contribute to something meaningful for our community. On the first Saturday morning, the three of us arrived at the empty land chosen for the garden. Several community workers were already there, preparing the soil and arranging tools. We were soon divided into groups, each responsible for different tasks. Mike, who had a gift for design, volunteered to plan the layout of the flower beds. Lily and I began planting seeds, watering, and labeling each plant carefully. The sun was very hot, and sweat ran down our faces, yet the laughter around us made every minute worthwhile. Some neighbors passing by offered bottles of water and even joined us, saying how wonderful it was to see young people caring for the neighborhood. By the end of the day, the once-bare ground was covered with rows of green shoots, silently promising a bright future. As weeks went by, the garden began to take shape. The air was filled with the smell of fresh earth and blooming (盛开的) flowers. Elderly neighbors stopped by to watch, children came to water the plants after school, and families enjoyed evening walks along the paths we had created. However, as summer approached, the enthusiasm started to grow weaker. Some volunteers got busy, and weeds began to grow quickly. Without regular care, several plants dried up in the heat. Seeing the yellow leaves and dry soil, I couldn’t help feeling disappointed and worried. Something had to be done if we wanted the garden to survive. 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。 One afternoon, our leader gathered us to discuss how to manage the garden better. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, I walked through the garden again and was amazed by its beauty. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年度高二英语期末试卷 考试时间：120分钟 注意事项：1．答题前填写好自己的姓名、班级、考号等信息 2．请将答案正确填写在答题卡上 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段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Who is wanted on the phone?

I was hoping you could help me make a decision. W: I’ll try. Which university are you thinking of transferring to? And why do you want to leave Hillside University? M: Um, I’m thinking of going to Central University because it’s in my hometown. I’ve been kind of homesick this year. W: I see, and would you keep the same major if you transferred? M: Yeah, I would. The credits I’ve earned here will transfer to Central. W: Why did you choose to come to Hillside University in the first place? M: Um, firstly you have a great business school and secondly, I wanted to get away from home. W: You’re right, Mr. Johnson. We do have an excellent business school, but so does Central. The thing is, you’ve got almost a year under your belt here now. At Central, you’ll be starting from scratch. M: Yeah, I know that, but I’m a little bit familiar with Central. I had older friends who went there and I visited it before I came here. W: You know, freshman year is usually the hardest. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17.

The country has quite a detailed way of sorting their waste-down to the color of glass waste, the type of paper, the separate bin for metals, etc. Here below are what you should know about Germany’s waste sorting system： ◇You are expected to gather your waste in your apartment/housing area’s local public garbage bins. ◇There are commonly several types of public garbage bins available in the German’s apartment/housing areas： Blue bin — for paper and cardboard Green and white bin — for glass, different bins for differently colored glass, not available for holiday decorations and lights Yellow/orange bin — for plastic and metals Brown bin — for goods that can be changed naturally by bacteria into substances that don’t harm the environment, like leftovers, fruit and vegetables Gray/black bin — for everything else that can’t be recycled such as used cat litter and animal waste ◇Some items don’t belong in these public garbage bins. Items like used batteries, electronics, unused paints, and lights must be returned to the special agent/locations so they can be properly recycled. Other items such as clothes, shoes, and oversized rubbish and furniture are advised to be donated or sold. ◇There’s this thing called Pfand in Germany, a certain part of the price for a bottled drink that you get back if you send back the bottle to certified (有资历的) shops. German law requires shops over a certain size selling bottled drinks have a Pfandruckgabestelle, or place for bottles with deposits (押金). These bottles usually made of glass or plastic will be refilled. Of course, there’re strict health regulations. 21. Which bin should the fallen leaves be classified into？ A. The blue bin. B. The brown bin. C. The grey/black bin. D. The green and white bin. 22. How can Germans deal with some used sneakers？ A. By returning it to special agents. B. By placing it in a specific location. C. By giving it away to those in need. D. By donating it to a Pfandruckgabestelle. 23. What is the aim of Pfand？ A. To collect money for some shops. B. To help shops reuse plastic or glass. C. To reduce the broken bottles. D. To encourage bottles to be returned. 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了德国是如何进行垃圾分类和回收的。 【21题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Brown bin”部分关键句“for goods that can be changed naturally by bacteria into substances that don’t harm the environment, like leftovers, fruit and vegetables”（对于那些可以被细菌自然转化为对环境无害的物质的物品，如吃剩的食物、水果和蔬菜）可知，棕色垃圾桶用来回收那些可以被细菌自然转化为对环境无害的物质的物品，落叶可以被细菌可以被细菌自然转化为对环境无害的物质的物品，从而推知，落叶应被归入棕色垃圾桶。故选B项。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段关键句“Other items such as clothes, shoes, and oversized rubbish and furniture are advised to be donated or sold.”（建议捐赠或出售衣服、鞋子、超大垃圾和家具等其他物品。）可知，在德国，建议将衣服、鞋子、超大垃圾和家具等物品捐赠或出售，从而推知，德国人可能会把二手运动鞋捐赠给那些有需要的人。故选C项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段关键句“There’s this thing called Pfand in Germany, a certain part of the price for a bottled drink that you get back if you send back the bottle to certified shops.”（在德国有一种叫做Pfand的东西，它是瓶装饮料价格的一部分，如果你把瓶子送回经过认证的商店，你会得到它。）可知，Pfand是瓶装饮料价格的一部分，如果你把饮料瓶子送回经过认证的商店，就会得到这部分钱，这是一种鼓励消费者退回瓶子的方法，由此可推断出，Pfand的功能是鼓励消费者退回瓶子。故选D项。 B In the livestreaming (直播) channel of Yang Weiyun, no singing or dancing is performed nor are products sold. Yang, 74 years old, teaches children Pinyin, reading and writing, something that has been most familiar to her for the past 50 years. But this time, her students are mostly adults.  In retirement, Yang also wanted to do something meaningful. The rise of short video platforms gave her the idea of continuing her education career through livestreaming online. She opened her livestreaming account in May 2021 and offered free Pinyin courses designed for illiterate (不识字的) adults ever since.  “Many illiterate adults didn’t have the chance to go to school when they were young. They are the ones in urgent need of becoming literate. I wanted to give them a new starting point,” Yang said. Considering that most of the adult students have to make time to attend the lessons, Yang holds two livestream classes every day starting at 8:30 am and 8:30 pm. Her livestreaming channel offers an easy and private way for those who want to overcome adult illiteracy. Now she has nearly 400,000 followers on the short video platform.  Zhang Mei is among the students who benefit from Yang’s livestream lessons. She was born and raised in the countryside and had never been to school. She found illiteracy brought challenges to her city life. She couldn’t find suitable work. She also couldn’t fill in forms or read the assignment from teachers for her children. She watches Yang’s livestreaming whenever there is spare time. Now she can read Chinese characters if they are marked with Pinyin and knows how to write her name. She has also found a job.  Yang said she tried her best to figure out what ways the students could learn and remember better, and her biggest wish now is to see these students graduate from her classes. 24. What has Yang been doing after her retirement? A. Designing classes for illiterate adults at schools. B. Engaging herself in relieving adult illiteracy online. C. Helping people from the countryside find suitable jobs. D. Promoting educational products on a short video platform. 25. Why does Yang hold two livestream classes in two different time periods? A. To finish her teaching plan on time. B. To offer convenience to her students. C. To meet the requirements of platforms. D. To attract more followers for her channel. 26. Why is Zhang Mei mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To praise her efforts made in overcoming adult illiteracy. B. To show the popularity of Yang Weiyun’s teaching channel. C. To present the challenges facing illiterate adults in modern city life. D. To highlight the effects Yang’s livestream lessons bring to her viewers. 27. Which of the following can best describe Yang Weiyun? A. Strict. B. Humble. C. Dedicated. D. Easygoing. 【答案】24. B 25. B 26. D 27. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述74岁杨维云退休后直播免费教不识字成年人拼音，帮助他们摆脱文盲。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The rise of short video platforms gave her the idea of continuing her education career through livestreaming online. She opened her livestreaming account in May 2021 and offered free Pinyin courses designed for illiterate (不识字的) adults ever since.(短视频平台的兴起让她萌生了通过网络直播继续自己教育事业的想法。2021年5月，她开通了自己的直播账号，从那时起，就为不识字的成年人提供免费的拼音课程)”可知，退休后杨维云在网上致力于缓解成年人的文盲问题。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Considering that most of the adult students have to make time to attend the lessons, Yang holds two livestream classes every day starting at 8:30 am and 8:30 pm.(考虑到大多数成年学生必须抽出时间来上课，杨每天上午8:30和晚上8:30各开设一次直播课程)”可知，杨维云在两个不同时间段开设直播课是为了给学生提供便利。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Zhang Mei is among the students who benefit from Yang’s livestream lessons. She was born and raised in the countryside and had never been to school. She found illiteracy brought challenges to her city life. She couldn’t find suitable work. She also couldn’t fill in forms or read the assignment from teachers for her children. She watches Yang’s livestreaming whenever there is spare time. Now she can read Chinese characters if they are marked with Pinyin and knows how to write her name. She has also found a job.(张梅是受益于杨维云直播课程的学生之一。她在农村出生并长大，从未上过学。她发现不识字给她的城市生活带来了挑战。她找不到合适的工作。她也不会填写表格或阅读老师给孩子布置的作业。只要有空闲时间，她就会观看杨维云的直播。现在，如果汉字标有拼音，她就能读出来，还知道怎么写自己的名字。她也找到了一份工作)”可知，提到张梅是为了突出杨维云直播课程给观众带来的积极效果。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Yang said she tried her best to figure out what ways the students could learn and remember better, and her biggest wish now is to see these students graduate from her classes.(杨说，她尽最大努力找出学生能够更好地学习和记忆的方法，她现在最大的愿望就是看到这些学生从她的课程毕业)”以及她退休后坚持为成年文盲免费授课等行为可以看出，她全身心投入到帮助成年文盲学习的事业中，最能描述她的是“投入的”。 C Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher. If I have learned anything in my 16 years, it is that communication is very important, both when you disagree and when you get along. With any relationship, you need to let the other person know how you are feeling. If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything. Communication begins with the concerns (关心) of another. It means that you can’t just come home from school, go up to your room and take no notice of anyone. Even if you just say “Hi”, and see how their day was for five minutes, it is better than nothing. If you looked up the word “communication” in a dictionary, it would say “the exchange of ideas, the conveyance (表达) of information, correspondence (通信), means (方式) of communication: a letter or a message”. To keep a good relationship, you must keep communication strong. Let people know how you feel, even if it’s just by writing a note. When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you. Shouting or walking away only makes the situation worse. Here is an example: one night, Sophie went to a street party with her friends. She knew she had to be home by midnight after the fireworks, but she didn’t feel she could just ask to go home. That would be rude. After all, they had been nice enough to take her along with them. Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble. Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways. Just remember: if you get into a situation like Sophie’s, tell the other person how you feel — listening is the key to communication. 28. In the writer’s view, dealing with parents is ________ than with children. A. more difficult B. much easier C. less interesting D. more interesting 29. The underlined phrase “ drift apart” in Paragraph 2 means ________. A. keep up with others B. move along smoothly C. distance yourself from others D. come closer to each other 30. The example in Paragraph 6 shows that _________. A. Sophie is very polite to her parents B. Sophie’s parents are willing to listen to her C. Sophie did well in explaining her being late D. communication is the solution to misunderstanding 31. All the following statements are correct except “________”. A. Communication is a two-way matter. B. It is better to say “Hi” to others than say nothing. C. If you don’t agree with others, you’d better let them know. D. When dealing with parents, you only need to listen to them. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了沟通在处理与父母关系中的重要性，并给出了如何与父母有效沟通的建议。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Living and dealing with kids can be a tough job these days, but living and dealing with parents can be even tougher.(如今，与孩子相处并处理他们的问题可能是一项艰巨的工作，但与父母相处并处理他们的问题可能更加困难)”可知，作者认为与父母相处比与孩子相处更困难。故选A项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“If you are not able to communicate, you drift apart. When you are mad at your parents, or anyone else, not talking to them doesn’t solve anything.(如果你不能交流，你们就会drift apart。当你生父母或其他人的气时，不和他们说话并不能解决任何问题)”可知，不能交流，不和他们说话并不能解决任何问题，反而会让你们之间产生隔阂，由此可推知，“drift apart”意为“疏远，与……产生隔阂”，即“distance yourself from others”。故选C项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中“Needless to say, she was late getting home. Her parents were mad at first, but when Sophie explained why she was late, they weren’t as mad and let it go. Communication is the key here. If Sophie’s parents had not been willing to listen, Sophie would have been in a lot of trouble.(不用说，她回家晚了。起初她的父母很生气，但当Sophie解释了她为什么回家晚了后，他们没有那么生气，也就算了。沟通是关键。如果Sophie的父母不愿意听，Sophie就会陷入很多麻烦)”可推知，第六段的例子表明沟通是解决误解的方法。故选D项。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“When dealing with parents, you always have to make them feel good about how they are doing as a parent. If you are trying to make them see something as you see it, tell them that you’ll listen to what they have to say, and ask them politely to listen to you.(在和父母打交道时，你必须让他们对自己的父母身份感觉良好。如果你想让他们像你一样看待某件事，告诉他们你会听他们说些什么，并礼貌地请他们听你说)”以及最后一段中“Communication isn’t a one-way matter: it goes both ways.(沟通不是单方面的事情：它是双向的)”可知，在和父母打交道时，要双向沟通，既要表达自己的观点，也要倾听父母的观点，由此可知，D项“在和父母打交道时，你只需要听他们的”说法错误。故选D项。 D “What is your name?” is a question most frequently asked when people meet for the first time. But for me, it was the first challenge I encountered as an international student in Ireland. The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce. My given name Qiuyu (秋雨), for instance, happened to be a great challenge for many of them. Every time I gave a self-introduction, I had to explain how to pronounce my name at least five times, yet they still could not say it the way I did. Once in a lecture, the professor tried repeating my name after me over and over in front of thirty classmates. I really did not know whether I should continue correcting him or simply drop the matter. I feared that my classmates might grow tired of my efforts or even lose patience with me. After all, I did care about how others would think of me. I realized that if I didn’t stop, the entire lecture would be ruined. “It’s okay, professor,” I shrugged (耸肩). The awkward moment ended with the class erupting into laughter. I forced a smile, unsure how to respond further. After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly. This approach spared me the discomfort of having to over-explain. However, I soon found that by doing so, I might be losing something more important: the opportunity to share a small part of my cultural identity. In a class discussion, I was invited to explain the meaning of my name. At first, I hesitated because of the previous awkward moments. But then I decided to take the opportunity. “In Chinese, ‘Qiu’ means ‘autumn’ and ‘Yu’ means ‘rain.’ In my culture, the autumn rain nourishes the earth and brings people harvest.” The professor nodded and to my surprise, many classmates began to mimic the sound and the rhythm of my name. Their interest and effort made me feel proud of our culture. I came to know that my name is not only a symbol, but also a doorway to Chinese culture. Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. “What a poetic name you’ve got!” one girl said. “Could you teach us to say it correctly?” another classmate asked. “Maybe you could share more about Chinese culture with us sometime.” This time, I didn’t shrug. I talked with them with extreme patience and warmth. Their curiosity and laughter made me realize that sharing our cultural identity is meaningful. From then on, I began to see my name as a bridge to connect different worlds. 32. Why was the author’s name a challenge for native English speakers? A. Because it was too long to remember. B. Because its pronunciation was unfamiliar to them. C. Because they were not interested in foreign names. D. Because the author refused to explain it to them. 33. What did the author do after the awkward incident in the lecture? A. He decided to change his name to an English one. B. He continued to correct people’s pronunciation patiently. C. He avoided explaining the pronunciation of his name anymore. D. He asked the professor to help him introduce his name. 34. The word “nourishes” in Paragraph 6 most probably means ________. A. destroys B. feeds and helps grow C. washes away D. cools down 35. What was the change in the classmates’ attitude after the author explained the meaning of his name? A. They became more curious and respectful. B. They thought it was too poetic to be true. C. They felt sorry for their previous impatience. D. They lost interest in Chinese culture. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述作者在爱尔兰留学时，从回避讲解中文名到主动分享名字承载的中国文化。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The pronunciation system of the Chinese language is quite different from that of English. For native speakers of English, some Chinese words are rather difficult to pronounce.(汉语发音体系和英语差异很大，对英语母语者来说，部分中文词语很难发音。)”可知，英语母语者不熟悉作者名字的发音，因此难以读准。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“After that incident, I stopped acting as a “Chinese teacher.” Instead of correcting others when they were struggling to pronounce my name, I just smiled and nodded approvingly.(这件事后，我不再充当“中文老师”。别人读不好我的名字时，我不再纠正，只是微笑赞许点头。)”可知，作者不再主动解释、纠正名字发音。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段中的“In Chinese, ‘Qiu’ means ‘autumn’ and ‘Yu’ means ‘rain.’ In my culture, the autumn rain nourishes the earth and brings people harvest.(中文里“秋”是秋天，“雨”是雨水；在我们文化中，秋雨nourishes大地，为人们带来丰收。)”可知，秋雨滋养土地、助力作物生长，可推断nourishes意为滋养、供给养分帮助生长。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Many of my classmates got interested and came up to me after class. “What a poetic name you’ve got!” one girl said. “Could you teach us to say it correctly?” another classmate asked. “Maybe you could share more about Chinese culture with us sometime.” This time, I didn’t shrug. I talked with them with extreme patience and warmth. Their curiosity and laughter made me realize that sharing our cultural identity is meaningful.(很多同学都产生了兴趣，下课后纷纷走到我身边。有个女孩说：“你的名字真富有诗意。” 还有一位同学问道：“你能教教我们怎么把你的名字读标准吗？或许你什么时候可以多跟我们讲讲中国文化。” 这一次，我没有再耸肩。我满怀耐心、热情地和他们交谈。他们的好奇与欢声笑语让我明白，分享自身的文化特征是一件很有意义的事。)”可知，听完名字寓意后同学们变得更好奇，也更加尊重中国文化。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文填空，从短文后的选项中选出能天热空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两处为多余选项。 Forget your keys again? Can’t memorize what the exam will cover? Memory troubles are no big deal. You can fix them with simple strategies. ____36____ Strategy 1: Make meaningful connections When you’re remembering new information, even random, unconnected facts, the brain links details to stored information. So, the easiest way is to make it meaningful by connecting to what you know and making sense within context. ____37____ For example, people find it easier to remember new vocabulary if they translate concepts into their own words. Strategy 2: Space out your study sessions When you’re cramming for a test, spacing out sessions where you’re reviewing foreign language vocabulary or memorizing flashcards can help your brain store memories more efficiently. ____38____ Spaced repetition works because new information initially goes to short-term memory and consolidating it into long-term memory takes time and happens during rest. Strategy 3: Engage your senses When you want to remember a moment, engaging your senses during learning contributes to forming vivid recollections of an experience. ____39____ To find them, you must use your memory to compete with all the other times you’ve put them down. Next time you set your keys aside, focus on the unique aspects of this particular moment, like the sights or smells. These sensory experiences will create a distinct memory to aid later recall. Strategy 4: Journey through the memory palace The memory palace is an ancient technique that, studies show, can enhance recall. It is effective especially in remembering grocery lists. ____40____ As you walk through it, create an association between the items to be bought and specific spots. Then imagine yourself “walking” your route — each spot reminds you of the item. A. They’re tricky in diverse aspects. B. You might as well train your senses. C. Take misplacing your keys for instance. D. This can be done through personal narratives. E. But they depend on what you want to remember. F. Start by picturing a familiar space like your home. G. You need to revisit information at increasing time gaps. 【答案】36. E 37. D 38. G 39. C 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了一些解决记忆问题的方法。 【36题详解】 根据前文“Forget your keys again? Can’t memorize what the exam will cover? Memory troubles are no big deal. You can fix them with simple strategies.(又忘带钥匙了？记不住考试的内容？记忆问题没什么大不了的。你可以用简单的策略来解决它们)”指出生活中的一些记忆问题可通过简单策略解决；E项“But they depend on what you want to remember.(但它们取决于你想记住什么)”和前文构成转折关系，点明策略需根据记忆目标选择，引出下文不同场景的策略，选项中“they”代指上文提到的“ simple strategies”。故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据前文“When you’re remembering new information, even random, unconnected facts, the brain links details to stored information. So, the easiest way is to make it meaningful by connecting to what you know and making sense within context.(当你记住新信息时，即使是随机的、不相关的事实，大脑也会将细节与储存的信息联系起来。所以，最简单的方法就是把它和你所知道的联系起来，让它在上下文中有意义)”以及后文“For example, people find it easier to remember new vocabulary if they translate concepts into their own words.(例如，人们发现如果把概念翻译成自己的语言，就更容易记住新单词)”可知，前文介绍可以把要记住的信息和你所知道的联系起来，后文是具体举例，指出把概念翻译成自己的语言会有助于记忆，所以空处应是提出通过结合已知内容、转化为自身理解的方式建立联系，D项“This can be done through personal narratives.(这可以通过个人叙述来实现)”符合文意，“personal narratives”与下文“translate concepts into their own words”相对应。故选D项。 【38题详解】 根据前文“When you’re cramming for a test, spacing out sessions where you’re reviewing foreign language vocabulary or memorizing flashcards can help your brain store memories more efficiently.(当你为了考试而临时抱佛脚时，在复习外语词汇或记忆卡片的时间间隔可以帮助你的大脑更有效地储存记忆)”以及后文“Spaced repetition works because new information initially goes to short-term memory and consolidating it into long-term memory takes time and happens during rest.(间隔重复之所以有效，是因为新信息最初进入短期记忆，巩固为长期记忆需要时间，而且需要在休息时进行)”可知，前文知提到时间间隔，后文提到了间隔重复，所以空处应提出间隔复习的具体操作方法，G项“You need to revisit information at increasing time gaps.(您需要在不断增加的时间间隔中重新访问信息)”符合文意。故选G项。 【39题详解】 根据前文“When you want to remember a moment, engaging your senses during learning contributes to forming vivid recollections of an experience.(当你想记住一个时刻时，在学习过程中调动你的感官有助于形成对一段经历的生动回忆)”以及后文“To find them, you must use your memory to compete with all the other times you’ve put them down. Next time you set your keys aside, focus on the unique aspects of this particular moment, like the sights or smells.(为了找到它们，你必须用你的记忆来与其他所有你放下它们的时间竞争。下次你把钥匙放在一边的时候，把注意力集中在这个特殊时刻的独特方面，比如风景或气味)”可知，前文提出方法，后文用找到钥匙举例，所以C项“Take misplacing your keys for instance.(以放错钥匙为例)”符合文意，引出下文。故选C项。 【40题详解】 根据前文“The memory palace is an ancient technique that, studies show, can enhance recall. It is effective especially in remembering grocery lists.(研究表明，记忆宫殿是一种古老的技术，可以增强记忆力。它在记忆购物清单方面尤其有效)”以及下文“As you walk through it, create an association between the items to be bought and specific spots. Then imagine yourself “walking” your route — each spot reminds you of the item.(当你走过它时，在要购买的物品和特定地点之间建立联系。然后想象自己“走”在你的路线上——每一个地点都会提醒你这件事。)”可知，前文介绍 “记忆宫殿法”，并指出其适用于记忆购物清单，后文分步说明记忆购物清单时如何构建记忆宫殿，F项“Start by picturing a familiar space like your home.(从想象一个熟悉的空间开始，比如你的家)”点明“记忆宫殿法”的第一步，与后文“as you walk through it”与“Then imagine yourself “walking” your route”衔接自然，完整呈现操作流程。故选F项。 第三部分：语言应用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 I used to be 20kg overweight and unfit.

According to ___56___ (expert), paper cuttings convey the culture shared between China ___57___ foreign countries to wish for family reunions and maintain links with loved ones, alive or dead.  In the movie Coco, for instance, the 12-year-old Miguel and his family dance and sing to celebrate a ___58___ (tradition) festival in Mexico, when colorful paper cuttings are hung on the street. Chinese people also cut images of small figures to remember their families ___59___ have passed away.

The fairy tale writer Hans Christian Andersen liked to cut characters, such as princesses, out of paper while ___62___ (tell) stories to children. In China, female friends and family members used ___63___ (chat) and make paper cuttings together.  “Though the patterns and colors may be different, paper cuttings share ___64___ same function of maintaining emotional ties among people,” says Yang Huizi, an art teacher at Beijing Union University.

Besides routine university courses, she also organizes nonprofit paper-cutting activities that are open ____65____ the public in Beijing to promote basic knowledge of paper cutting. 【答案】56. experts 57. and 58. traditional 59. who##that 60. difference 61. are made 62. telling 63. to chat 64. the 65. to 【解析】 【导语】2006 年剪纸被列为国家级非物质文化遗产，它在中外文化交流中传递情感。文中通过电影《寻梦环游记》举例说明剪纸在不同国家的表现形式，还提及剪纸在中外的不同用途，以及北京联合大学一位老师为推广剪纸艺术所做的努力。 【56题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：据专家说，剪纸传达了中国和外国共有的文化，以祈求家庭团聚，并与在世或去世的亲人保持联系。expert为可数名词，根据语境，此处指多位专家，应用复数形式experts。 【57题详解】 考查连词。句意：据专家说，剪纸传达了中国和外国共有的文化，以祈求家庭团聚，并与在世或去世的亲人保持联系。between...and...为固定搭配，意为“在……和……之间”。 【58题详解】 考查形容词。句意：例如，在电影《寻梦环游记》中，12岁的米格尔和他的家人唱歌跳舞来庆祝墨西哥的一个传统节日，街道上挂着五颜六色的剪纸。此处修饰名词festival，应用形容词traditional，意为“传统的”。 【59题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：中国人也会剪出小人像来纪念他们已经去世的家人。此处为关系词引导的定语从句，先行词是families，指人，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词who或that。 【60题详解】 考查名词。句意：不同之处在于，大多数中国剪纸是红色的，而其他国家的剪纸有许多其他颜色。根据空前的The及谓语动词is可知，此处应用名词单数difference，意为“不同之处”。 【61题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：不同之处在于，大多数中国剪纸是红色的，而其他国家的剪纸有许多其他颜色。此处描述的是一般事实，应用一般现在时，且those（指代paper cuttings）与make之间是被动关系，所以用一般现在时的被动语态，其结构为“am/is/are +过去分词”，主语是复数，所以用are made。 【62题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：童话作家汉斯·克里斯蒂安·安徒生在给孩子们讲故事的时候，喜欢用纸剪出公主之类的人物。此处为while引导的时间状语从句的省略，完整形式为“while (he was) telling stories to children”，省略了主语he和be动词was。 【63题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在中国，女性朋友和家庭成员过去常常聚在一起聊天并制作剪纸。used to do sth.为固定搭配，意为“过去常常做某事”。 【64题详解】 考查冠词。句意：北京联合大学的艺术教师杨慧子说：“尽管图案和颜色可能不同，但剪纸在维系人们情感联系方面有着相同的作用。”the same为固定搭配，意为“相同的”。 【65题详解】 考查介词。句意：除了常规的大学课程外，她还在北京组织面向公众的非营利性剪纸活动，以推广剪纸基础知识。be open to为固定搭配，意为“对……开放”。 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 你校校报新开设了一个名为“Robots and Our Future Life”的栏目，现面向师生征文。请你根据提示，用英语写一篇短文，向该栏目投稿。内容如下： 1.机器人在人们未来生活中的作用；2.机器人对人们未来生活的影响；3.你个人的观点。 要求：1.展开合理想象；2.词数100左右；3.可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文： With the development of science and technology, robots will surely enter people’s daily life in the future.

Posters were displayed at the gate, calling for residents to join hands in planting flowers, growing vegetables, and maintaining the environment. The idea of turning an abandoned piece of land into a green garden immediately appealed to me. I phoned my two close friends, Mike and Lily, who lived in the same neighborhood, and invited them to participate. To my delight, both agreed, excited to contribute to something meaningful for our community. On the first Saturday morning, the three of us arrived at the empty land chosen for the garden. Several community workers were already there, preparing the soil and arranging tools. We were soon divided into groups, each responsible for different tasks. Mike, who had a gift for design, volunteered to plan the layout of the flower beds. Lily and I began planting seeds, watering, and labeling each plant carefully. The sun was very hot, and sweat ran down our faces, yet the laughter around us made every minute worthwhile. Some neighbors passing by offered bottles of water and even joined us, saying how wonderful it was to see young people caring for the neighborhood. By the end of the day, the once-bare ground was covered with rows of green shoots, silently promising a bright future. As weeks went by, the garden began to take shape. The air was filled with the smell of fresh earth and blooming (盛开的) flowers. Elderly neighbors stopped by to watch, children came to water the plants after school, and families enjoyed evening walks along the paths we had created. However, as summer approached, the enthusiasm started to grow weaker. Some volunteers got busy, and weeds began to grow quickly. Without regular care, several plants dried up in the heat. Seeing the yellow leaves and dry soil, I couldn’t help feeling disappointed and worried. Something had to be done if we wanted the garden to survive. 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。 One afternoon, our leader gathered us to discuss how to manage the garden better. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, I walked through the garden again and was amazed by its beauty. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 One afternoon, our leader gathered us to discuss how to manage the garden better. Everyone shared ideas seriously this time. Mike suggested building a small fence to prevent people from stepping on the plants, while Lily proposed making a duty schedule so that each volunteer would take turns watering and cleaning. I recommended inviting more residents to join, especially families with children, to keep the garden lively. The leader agreed and encouraged us to divide tasks and support one another. Over the next few weeks, we repaired broken tools, cleared the weeds, and built a watering system together. Slowly, the garden began to recover its energy and beauty. Months later, I walked through the garden again and was amazed by its beauty. Bright flowers were blooming beside rows of vegetables, and butterflies danced freely in the air. Children were laughing as they watered the plants, while elderly neighbors rested on benches, sharing stories under the trees. Mike was painting a signboard that read “Our Shared Garden,” and Lily was teaching a little girl how to plant seeds. Standing there, I felt proud and moved. The garden had survived because we never gave up — it had become not only a green space but also the beating heart of our community. 【解析】 【导语】本文以社区花园的兴衰与重生为线索展开，讲述了“我”与朋友们参与社区花园建设，经历困难后通过集体努力重振花园，最终使其成为社区活力中心的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一天下午，负责人召集我们讨论如何更好地管理花园”可知，第一段可描写大家积极提出建议、制定计划并共同落实行动的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“几个月后，我再次漫步花园，被它的美丽所震撼”可知，第二段可描写花园焕然一新的景象、人们的活动以及“我”内心的感慨。 2. 续写线索：花园初创——热情高涨——遇到困境(杂草丛生、植物枯萎)——集体商议——采取行动(分工协作、修复整理)——花园复苏——成为社区纽带。 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①放弃：give up/ quit ②提议：propose/ recommend/ suggest 情绪类： ①自豪：felt proud / was filled with pride/ beamed with pride ②感动：felt moved/ felt deeply touched/ a sense of heartfelt emotion swept over 【点睛】【高分句型1】Mike suggested building a small fence to prevent people from stepping on the plants, while Lily proposed making a duty schedule so that each volunteer would take turns watering and cleaning.(运用了so that引导的目的状语从句) 【高分句型2】The garden had survived because we never gave up—it had become not only a green space but also the beating heart of our community.(运用了because引导的原因状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $英语听力。测试现在开始。一听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。做题时请先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。请听听力部分。第一节。第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话读两遍。Hello, could I speak to share lime, please? sure.
