B Researchers say they have translated the meaning of gestures that wild chimpanzees (黑猩猩) use to communicate. They say wild chimps communicate 19 specific messages to one another with a “vocabulary” of 66 gestures. The scientists discovered this by following and filming groups of chimps in Uganda, and examining more than 5,000 incidents of these meaningful exchanges. Dr Catherine Hobaiter, who led the research, said that this was the only form of intentional communication to be recorded in the animal kingdom. Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they deliberately sent a message to another group member. “That’s what’s so amazing about chimp gestures,” she said. “They’re the only thing that looks like human language in that respect.” Although previous research has shown that apes and monkeys can understand complex information from another animal’s call, the animals do not appear to use their voices intentionally to communicate messages. This was a significant difference between calls and gestures, Dr Hobaiter said. Chimps will check to see if they have the attention of the animal with which they wish to communicate. In one case, a mother presents her foot to her crying baby, signaling: “Climb on me.” The youngster immediately jumps on to its mothers back and they travel off together. “The big message from this study is that there is another species (物种) out there. that is meaningful in its communication, so that’s not unique to humans,” said Dr Hobaiter. Dr Susanne Shultz, an evolutionary biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were “a little disappointing”. “The vagueness of the gesture meanings suggests either that the chimps have little to communicate, or we are still missing a lot of the information contained in their gestures and actions,” she said. “Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animal convey with non-verbal communication. So, it seems the gulf remains. ” 4. What do chimps and humans have in common according to Dr Hobaiter? A. Memorizing specific words. B. Understanding complex information. C. Using voices to communicate. D. Communicating messages on purpose. 5. What did Dr Shultz think of the study? A. It was well designed but poorly conducted. B. It was a good try but the findings were limited. C. It was inspiring but the evidence was unreliable. D. It was a failure but the methods deserved praise. 6. What does the underlined word “gulf” in the last paragraph mean? A. Difference. B. Conflict. C. Balance. D. Connection. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Chimpanzee behaviour study achieved a breakthrough B. Chimpanzees developed specific communication skills C. Chimpanzees: the smartest species in the animal kingdom D. Chimpanzee language: communication gestures translated C With natural resources running out, the problems caused by our throwaway culture are gaining attention. People are increasingly aware of its long-term effects on the environment. In response, a move towards what’s known as a circular economy is increasingly seen as a sensible and necessary solution. Generating energy from waste, whether that’s electricity or heat, is a logical part of this move towards circular thinking. There are a number of ways to generate energy from waste. First up, combustion. This is a process in which burning waste produces heat to drive a machine that generates electricity. Whether any approach to generating energy from waste can be considered sustainable depends on the net calorific value (NCV) of the waste going into the process. When it comes to burning waste, that figure must reach 7 MJ/kg, which means materials like paper and plastics are best suited for generating energy through combustion. Of course, combustion produces emissions (排放物) but this is balanced out by the fact that fossil fuels (化石燃料) don’t need to be burned. Pyrolysis differs from combustion because it breaks down solid waste at high temperatures but without oxygen or in an inactive gas environment. This allows the process to use lower temperatures and produce fewer air pollutants compared to combustion. It’s worth noting, however, that Friends of the Earth doesn’t consider the energy generated through pyrolysis as truly renewable due to the fact that the process releases CO2 from both fossil fuel origins as well as biological materials. Anaerobic digestion can be used to generate energy from organic waste like food and animal products. In an oxygen-free tank, this material is broken down to biogas. It’s an approach with big potential. If we treated 5.5 million tons of food waste this way, we’d generate enough energy to serve around 164,000 households while saving between 0.22 and 0.35 million tons of CO2, in comparison to composting (堆肥). Collecting the biogas produced by biodegrading materials on landfill sites is another way of getting useful energy from waste. Although it’s an approach that’s in decline due to the reduction of the amount of organic matter going to landfill, it’s making a notable contribution to UK energy supply: the source of 3.04 TWh of green electricity in the last year, in fact. 8. How does the author introduce the topic? A. By highlighting a concern. B. By describing a process. C. By analyzing opinions. D. By offering a definition. 9. Why is paper suitable for combustion? A. It breaks down quickly. B. It produces few harmful gases. C. It reaches more than 7 MJ/kg on NCV. D. It generates more electricity than heat. 10. What is Friends of the Earth’s attitude towards pyrolysis? A. Positive. B. Undecided. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 11. What can be learned about anaerobic digestion? A. It happens in an active gas environment. B. It has won much governmental support. C. It is in decline due to reduced organic waste. D. It offers both environmental and energy benefits. D We’ve all heard that ostriches (鸵鸟) bury their heads in the sand when danger approaches. While untrue for the ostriches, it mirrors a common human behavior called “information avoidance” — the active choice to turn away from the freely available information highly relevant to ourselves. But why do we change from naturally curious children into selective information avoiders? A 2025 study titled “Becoming an Ostrich” explored this. Researchers had children aged 5 to 10 play a game where researchers designed two candy distribution schemes (方案): equal shares for each, or one large share and one small share. Most children chose the latter and claimed the large share. Then, researchers asked whether they would like to know how many candies were left for their partner. The result was interesting. Younger children showed strong curiosity, actively seeking their partner’s information. The older children, however, increasingly chose to avoid it. Researchers explained as children grow older, they become more concerned with feeling at ease — even if their actions might not be moral. By avoiding their partner’s information, they tend to keep a sense of fairness, or at least appearing fair. This strategy makes it easier to act in satisfying personal interests without feeling guilty. They note that adults routinely employ the same approach in various real-life situations. Yet avoidance has long-term costs. Skipping health screenings may ease anxiety now, but can risk serious health issues later. Avoiding tough conversations may prevent short term conflict, but will likely trap people in unsatisfying relationships. “By repeatedly avoiding opposing views,” researchers warn, “we build avoidance habits that can harden into rigid thinking patterns over time.” It’s no wonder researchers refer to this as a fundamental human contradiction: we start out in life as curious explorers, eager as possible to absorb whatever knowledge we can. Yet, somewhere along the way, we learn to stick our heads in the sand like an ostrich. This comfortable escape, nevertheless, can shape our choices and determine how our lives unfold. Recognizing this is the first step toward reclaiming the courageous curiosity that defines our earliest years. 12. How does the author introduce “information avoidance” in Paragraph 1? A. By using a metaphor. B. By offering statistics. C. By showing an argument. D. By giving an example. 13. Why did the older children avoid their partner’s information? A. To maintain a nice self-image. B. To safeguard others’ interests. C. To sustain their sense of guilt. D. To obey the rules of the game. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The consequences of avoidance actions. B. The ways of forming thinking patterns. C. The reasons of ignoring opposing views. D. The health costs of our avoidance habits. 15. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Does avoidance bring true happiness? B. Should we bury our heads like an ostrich? C. Can we shape our childhood curiosity? D. Is avoidance a path to greater curiosity? 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。 You run into the grocery store to pick up one bottle of water. You get what you need, head to the front, and choose the line that looks fastest. You chose wrong. People who you swear got in other lines long after you are already checked out and off to the parking lot. ___16___ It turns out, it’s just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster. Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout to get all their customers through with minimum delay. ___17___Any small interruption-a price check, a chatty customer-can have downstream effects, holding up an entire line. If there are three lines in the store, delays will happen randomly at different registers. Think about the probability:____18____So it's not just in your mind: Another line probably is moving faster. Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem. Make all customers stand in one long, snaking line- called a serpentine line-and serve each person at the front with the next available register. ___19___This is what they do at most banks and fast-food restaurants. With a serpentine line, a long delay at one register won't unfairly punish the people who lined up behind it. Instead, it will slow down everyone a little bit but speed up checkout overall. ____20____It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly, and some stores can't afford the space or manpower. So wherever your next wait may be: Good luck. A. Why does this always seem to happen to you? B. So why don’t most places encourage serpentine lines? C. Some of the may have stood in a queue for almost an hour. D. The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three. E. How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line? F. With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach. G. But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy. 四、完形填空：本大题共15小题，共15分。 We all experience tough days.

We had just been to a movie at the Fox Theatre and were dressed in mild winter clothes for the family outing in the cold winter. On the way home my dad stopped to help a stranger whose car had got stuck on the snow-covered railroad tracks. My father and the man couldn’t move the car, so my father told us to get out and help. We pushed the stranger’s car back into the road so he could get his automobile running again. As we approached a farm, a roaring (咆哮的) wall of snow from the northwest caused my dad to slow the car down. The intensity of the snow increased every moment until Dad could no longer drive the car and pulled the blue Ford over to the side of the road. About an hour had passed when the Ford’s engine died from exhaust pipe (排气管) blockage and the temperature dropped inside the car to -20℃. The wind was blowing hard, so my parents told us to stay in the car. We all were scared to death. My parents looked at each other and we could sense the seriousness of the situation. My feet stung (刺痛) as the cold air bit through my ankles, so I sat on my feet to keep them warm. The total darkness outside made me sad. As the night progressed my mother said prayers, told stories, and worked very hard to keep us all awake. My dad was strong but his courage was tested; there was a point when he started singing. I had never heard my dad sing but the seriousness in his voice only made me wonder if I would be found frozen or alive. Somehow we all made it through our fears and doubts until the morning’s light. As the sun rose my dad knew he had to go for help. 注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Dad struggled through the deep snow before reaching a farmhouse. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hours later, we saw a snow-clearing truck come by to clear the road. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 绝密★启用前 2026年上学期高一期末教学质量检测 英语 注意事项: 1.答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后，本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 一、听力-选择题：本大题共20小题，共30分。 1.What are the speakers mainly talking about?

So, it seems the gulf remains. ” 4. What do chimps and humans have in common according to Dr Hobaiter? A. Memorizing specific words. B. Understanding complex information. C. Using voices to communicate. D. Communicating messages on purpose. 5. What did Dr Shultz think of the study? A. It was well designed but poorly conducted. B. It was a good try but the findings were limited. C. It was inspiring but the evidence was unreliable. D. It was a failure but the methods deserved praise. 6. What does the underlined word “gulf” in the last paragraph mean? A. Difference. B. Conflict. C. Balance. D. Connection. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Chimpanzee behaviour study achieved a breakthrough B. Chimpanzees developed specific communication skills C. Chimpanzees: the smartest species in the animal kingdom D. Chimpanzee language: communication gestures translated 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了科学家们通过跟踪和拍摄乌干达的黑猩猩群，翻译出了黑猩猩用来交流的手势含义。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Only humans and chimps, she said, had a system of communication where they deliberately sent a message to another group member.(她说，只有人类和黑猩猩有一个交流系统，它们故意向其他成员发送信息)”可知，根据Dr Hobaiter，黑猩猩和人类的共同点在于故意传递信息。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Dr Susanne Shultz, an evolutionary biologist from the University of Manchester, said the study was praiseworthy in seeking to enrich our knowledge of the evolution of human language. But, she added, the results were a little disappointing.(曼彻斯特大学的进化生物学家苏珊娜·舒尔茨博士说，这项研究是值得称赞的，它试图丰富我们对人类语言进化的知识。但是，她补充说，结果有点令人失望)”可知，这项研究是一个好的尝试，但是发现的结果是有限的。故选B。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。首先根据第三段中的“They’re the only thing that looks like human language in that respect.(在这方面，它们是唯一看起来像人类语言的东西)”可知，黑猩猩的手势交流很像我们人类语言的交流方式。但是根据最后一段中的“Moreover, the meanings seem to not go beyond what other animals convey with non-verbal communications.(此外，这些含义似乎并不超越其他动物通过非语言交流所传达的信息)”可知，黑猩猩手势的交流方式还是和我们语言的交流方式存在不同的，也就是“So, it seems the gulf remains.(所以，看来差异依然存在)”。由此可知，划线词gulf与difference意思接近。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“Researchers say they have translated the meaning of gestures that wild chimpanzees use to communicate.(研究人员表示，他们已经翻译出了野生黑猩猩用来交流的手势的含义)”以及文章对这方面的讨论可知，文章主要讲科学家们对黑猩猩手势的研究及一些成果。由此可知，D项Chimpanzee language: communication gestures translated(黑猩猩语言：翻译出来的交流手势)适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。 C With natural resources running out, the problems caused by our throwaway culture are gaining attention. People are increasingly aware of its long-term effects on the environment. In response, a move towards what’s known as a circular economy is increasingly seen as a sensible and necessary solution. Generating energy from waste, whether that’s electricity or heat, is a logical part of this move towards circular thinking. There are a number of ways to generate energy from waste. First up, combustion. This is a process in which burning waste produces heat to drive a machine that generates electricity. Whether any approach to generating energy from waste can be considered sustainable depends on the net calorific value (NCV) of the waste going into the process. When it comes to burning waste, that figure must reach 7 MJ/kg, which means materials like paper and plastics are best suited for generating energy through combustion. Of course, combustion produces emissions (排放物) but this is balanced out by the fact that fossil fuels (化石燃料) don’t need to be burned. Pyrolysis differs from combustion because it breaks down solid waste at high temperatures but without oxygen or in an inactive gas environment. This allows the process to use lower temperatures and produce fewer air pollutants compared to combustion. It’s worth noting, however, that Friends of the Earth doesn’t consider the energy generated through pyrolysis as truly renewable due to the fact that the process releases CO2 from both fossil fuel origins as well as biological materials. Anaerobic digestion can be used to generate energy from organic waste like food and animal products. In an oxygen-free tank, this material is broken down to biogas. It’s an approach with big potential. If we treated 5.5 million tons of food waste this way, we’d generate enough energy to serve around 164,000 households while saving between 0.22 and 0.35 million tons of CO2, in comparison to composting (堆肥). Collecting the biogas produced by biodegrading materials on landfill sites is another way of getting useful energy from waste. Although it’s an approach that’s in decline due to the reduction of the amount of organic matter going to landfill, it’s making a notable contribution to UK energy supply: the source of 3.04 TWh of green electricity in the last year, in fact. 8. How does the author introduce the topic? A. By highlighting a concern. B. By describing a process. C. By analyzing opinions. D. By offering a definition. 9. Why is paper suitable for combustion? A. It breaks down quickly. B. It produces few harmful gases. C. It reaches more than 7 MJ/kg on NCV. D. It generates more electricity than heat. 10. What is Friends of the Earth’s attitude towards pyrolysis? A. Positive. B. Undecided. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 11. What can be learned about anaerobic digestion? A. It happens in an active gas environment. B. It has won much governmental support. C. It is in decline due to reduced organic waste. D. It offers both environmental and energy benefits. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了循环经济背景下四种从废弃物中获取能源的技术及其特点。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“With natural resources running out, the problems caused by our throwaway culture are gaining attention.(随着自然资源逐渐枯竭，我们“用完即弃”的文化所引发的问题正日益受到关注)”可知，作者是通过凸显这一环境隐忧来引出话题的。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“When it comes to burning waste, that figure must reach 7 MJ/kg, which means materials like paper and plastics are best suited for generating energy through combustion.(说到焚烧垃圾，净热值必须达到7 MJ/kg，这意味着纸类和塑料等材料最适合通过燃烧发电)”可知，纸张因净热值超过7 MJ/kg而适合燃烧。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“It’s worth noting, however, that Friends of the Earth doesn’t consider the energy generated through pyrolysis as truly renewable due to the fact that the process releases CO2 from both fossil fuel origins as well as biological materials.(然而，值得注意的是，地球之友并不认为热解产生的能量是真正可再生的，因为这一过程会从化石燃料和生物材料中释放二氧化碳)”可知，该组织对热解技术持否定态度。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“If we treated 5.5 million tons of food waste this way, we’d generate enough energy to serve around 164,000 households while saving between 0.22 and 0.35 million tons of CO2, in comparison to composting (堆肥).(如果我们以这种方式处理550万吨食物垃圾，与堆肥相比，我们将产生足够的能源为大约16.4万户家庭提供服务，同时减少22万至35万吨二氧化碳排放)”可知，厌氧消化既能产出能源，又能减排，兼具环境与能源双重效益。 D We’ve all heard that ostriches (鸵鸟) bury their heads in the sand when danger approaches. While untrue for the ostriches, it mirrors a common human behavior called “information avoidance” — the active choice to turn away from the freely available information highly relevant to ourselves. But why do we change from naturally curious children into selective information avoiders? A 2025 study titled “Becoming an Ostrich” explored this. Researchers had children aged 5 to 10 play a game where researchers designed two candy distribution schemes (方案): equal shares for each, or one large share and one small share. Most children chose the latter and claimed the large share. Then, researchers asked whether they would like to know how many candies were left for their partner. The result was interesting. Younger children showed strong curiosity, actively seeking their partner’s information. The older children, however, increasingly chose to avoid it. Researchers explained as children grow older, they become more concerned with feeling at ease — even if their actions might not be moral. By avoiding their partner’s information, they tend to keep a sense of fairness, or at least appearing fair. This strategy makes it easier to act in satisfying personal interests without feeling guilty. They note that adults routinely employ the same approach in various real-life situations. Yet avoidance has long-term costs. Skipping health screenings may ease anxiety now, but can risk serious health issues later. Avoiding tough conversations may prevent short term conflict, but will likely trap people in unsatisfying relationships. “By repeatedly avoiding opposing views,” researchers warn, “we build avoidance habits that can harden into rigid thinking patterns over time.” It’s no wonder researchers refer to this as a fundamental human contradiction: we start out in life as curious explorers, eager as possible to absorb whatever knowledge we can. Yet, somewhere along the way, we learn to stick our heads in the sand like an ostrich. This comfortable escape, nevertheless, can shape our choices and determine how our lives unfold. Recognizing this is the first step toward reclaiming the courageous curiosity that defines our earliest years. 12. How does the author introduce “information avoidance” in Paragraph 1? A. By using a metaphor. B. By offering statistics. C. By showing an argument. D. By giving an example. 13. Why did the older children avoid their partner’s information? A. To maintain a nice self-image. B. To safeguard others’ interests. C. To sustain their sense of guilt. D. To obey the rules of the game. 14. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. The consequences of avoidance actions. B. The ways of forming thinking patterns. C. The reasons of ignoring opposing views. D. The health costs of our avoidance habits. 15. What can be a suitable title of the text? A. Does avoidance bring true happiness? B. Should we bury our heads like an ostrich? C. Can we shape our childhood curiosity? D. Is avoidance a path to greater curiosity? 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过鸵鸟的比喻引出“信息回避”这一概念，通过一项研究探讨了人们为何从好奇的孩子变成选择性回避信息的人，并分析了信息回避的原因、后果，最后呼吁人们重新找回早年勇敢的好奇心。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“We’ve all heard that ostriches (鸵鸟) bury their heads in the sand when danger approaches. While untrue for the ostriches, it mirrors a common human behavior called “information avoidance” — the active choice to turn away from the freely available information highly relevant to ourselves.(我们都听说过，当危险来临时，鸵鸟会把头埋在沙子里。虽然这对鸵鸟来说是不真实的，但它反映了一种常见的人类行为，称为“信息回避”——即主动选择避开那些与我们自身高度相关且唾手可得的信息)”可推知，作者通过将人类主动选择回避信息的行为与鸵鸟遇到危险时把头埋进沙子的行为进行类比，从而引出“信息回避”这一概念。故选A项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Researchers explained as children grow older, they become more concerned with feeling at ease — even if their actions might not be moral. By avoiding their partner’s information, they tend to keep a sense of fairness, or at least appearing fair. This strategy makes it easier to act in satisfying personal interests without feeling guilty.(研究人员解释称，随着孩子年龄增长，他们更倾向于追求心理舒适——即使其行为可能不符合道德标准。通过回避伙伴的信息，他们试图维持(或至少表现出)公平感。这种策略能让人更容易地在满足个人利益的同时，避免产生愧疚感)”可知，年龄较大的孩子回避伙伴的信息是为了维持一种(至少是表面的)公平感和良好的自我感觉，以避免内疚。故选A项。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Yet avoidance has long-term costs. Skipping health screenings may ease anxiety now, but can risk serious health issues later. Avoiding tough conversations may prevent short term conflict, but will likely trap people in unsatisfying relationships. “By repeatedly avoiding opposing views,” researchers warn, “we build avoidance habits that can harden into rigid thinking patterns over time.”(然而，回避是有长期代价的。跳过健康检查现在可能可以缓解焦虑，但以后可能会面临严重的健康问题。回避艰难的对话可能可以避免短期的冲突，但可能会使人们陷入不满意的关系中。研究人员警告说：“通过反复回避相反的观点，我们会养成回避的习惯，随着时间的推移，这些习惯会变成僵化的思维模式。”)”可知，本段主要讲述了信息回避带来的各种后果。故选A项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“It’s no wonder researchers refer to this as a fundamental human contradiction: we start out in life as curious explorers, eager as possible to absorb whatever knowledge we can. Yet, somewhere along the way, we learn to stick our heads in the sand like an ostrich. This comfortable escape, nevertheless, can shape our choices and determine how our lives unfold. Recognizing this is the first step toward reclaiming the courageous curiosity that defines our earliest years.(难怪研究人员称这是一个基本的人类矛盾：我们一开始是好奇的探索者，尽可能急切地吸收任何我们能吸收的知识。然而，在人生的某个阶段，我们学会了像鸵鸟一样把头埋进沙子里。然而，这种舒适的逃避可以塑造我们的选择，决定我们生活的展开方式。认识到这一点是重新找回定义我们早年勇敢好奇心的第一步)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要探讨了人们为何会像鸵鸟一样回避信息，以及这种行为带来的后果，最后呼吁人们不要像鸵鸟一样回避信息，要勇敢面对。B项“Should we bury our heads like an ostrich?(我们应该像鸵鸟一样埋头吗?)”以问句形式，既呼应了开头的比喻，又点明了文章探讨的核心问题，作为文章标题最为合适。故选B项。 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题，共12.5分。 You run into the grocery store to pick up one bottle of water. You get what you need, head to the front, and choose the line that looks fastest. You chose wrong. People who you swear got in other lines long after you are already checked out and off to the parking lot. ___16___ It turns out, it’s just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster. Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout to get all their customers through with minimum delay. ___17___Any small interruption-a price check, a chatty customer-can have downstream effects, holding up an entire line. If there are three lines in the store, delays will happen randomly at different registers. Think about the probability:____18____So it's not just in your mind: Another line probably is moving faster. Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem. Make all customers stand in one long, snaking line- called a serpentine line-and serve each person at the front with the next available register. ___19___This is what they do at most banks and fast-food restaurants. With a serpentine line, a long delay at one register won't unfairly punish the people who lined up behind it. Instead, it will slow down everyone a little bit but speed up checkout overall. ____20____It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly, and some stores can't afford the space or manpower. So wherever your next wait may be: Good luck. A. Why does this always seem to happen to you? B. So why don’t most places encourage serpentine lines? C. Some of the may have stood in a queue for almost an hour. D. The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three. E. How high is the probability that you are in the fastest waiting line? F. With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach. G. But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy. 【答案】16. A 17. G 18. D 19. F 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文。文章说明了杂货店排队方式以及研究人员提出的蛇形队伍的新方式，并分析了各自的利弊。 【16题详解】 根据下文“It turns out, it’s just math working against you; chances are, the other line really is faster. (原来，这只是你的数学问题；很可能，另一个队伍真的更快)”解释了上文“You chose wrong.(你选错了)”的原因，下文与空格处是因果关系，所以本空应该是对前文选错提出疑惑，A选项“Why does this always seem to happen to you?( 为什么这种事总是发生在你身上?)”符合文意，故选A项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Grocery stores try to have enough employees at checkout to get all their customers through with minimum delay.(杂货店尽量让足够的员工在结账时让所有的顾客以最小的延误完成结账)”解释了杂货店之前的工作模式，下文“Any small interruption a price check, a chatty customer -can have downstream effects, holding up an entire line.(任何一个小小的中断，一个价格检查，一个喋喋不休的顾客，都会产生下游效应，拖住整个生产线)”描述了杂货店的特殊情况，故本空应该填出现特殊情况的原因，G项“But sometimes, as on a Sunday afternoon, the system gets particularly busy.(但有时，比如在周日下午，系统会变得特别繁忙)”，与此呼应。故选G项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“If there are three lines in the store, delays will happen randomly at different registers. (如果杂货店中有三列队伍，延迟将在不同的队伍中随机发生)”联系下文“So it’s not just in your mind: Another line probably is moving faster.(所以这不仅仅是在你的脑海里：另一条队伍可能移动得更快)”可知本空说的是任何一个队伍都有可能出现问题。你的队伍跑得最快的几率只有三分之一。D项“The chances of your line being the fastest are only one in three.(你的线路是最快的几率只有三分之一)”与此对应。故选D项。 【19题详解】 根据“上文Researchers have a good way to deal with this problem.(我们得知研究人员有一个很好的方法来处理这个问题)”以及下文“This is what they do at most banks and fast-food restaurants. With a serpentine line, a long delay at one register won’t unfairly punish the people who lined up behind it. Instead, it will slow down everyone little bit but speed up checkout overall.(这个大多数银行和快餐店都是这样做的。有了一条蜿蜒的队伍，在一个登记处长时间拖延不会不公平地惩罚后面排队的人。相反，它会减慢每个人一点点，但加快了整体结账速度)”说明这个新方案迅速有效，联系上下文可知，空格中应该是与旧的结账方案作比较。F项“With three registers, this method is much faster than the traditional approach.(由于有三个寄存器，这种方法比传统方法要快得多)”与此对应。故选F项。 【20题详解】 结合下文“It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly, and some stores can’t afford the space or manpower.(要保持一条生产线的快速运转，需要很多的收银机，而且有些商店负担不起空间和人力)”说明了一个原因，由此可知，空格处提出了一个问题；通过“It takes many registers to keep one line moving quickly.(保持一条生产线的快速运转)”可知这里描述的是不鼓励蛇形队伍的原因。B项“So why don’t most places encourage serpentine lines?(那么，为什么大多数地方不鼓励使用蛇形线条呢？)”解释了该原因。故选B项。 四、完形填空：本大题共15小题，共15分。 We all experience tough days.

We had just been to a movie at the Fox Theatre and were dressed in mild winter clothes for the family outing in the cold winter. On the way home my dad stopped to help a stranger whose car had got stuck on the snow-covered railroad tracks. My father and the man couldn’t move the car, so my father told us to get out and help. We pushed the stranger’s car back into the road so he could get his automobile running again. As we approached a farm, a roaring (咆哮的) wall of snow from the northwest caused my dad to slow the car down. The intensity of the snow increased every moment until Dad could no longer drive the car and pulled the blue Ford over to the side of the road. About an hour had passed when the Ford’s engine died from exhaust pipe (排气管) blockage and the temperature dropped inside the car to -20℃. The wind was blowing hard, so my parents told us to stay in the car. We all were scared to death. My parents looked at each other and we could sense the seriousness of the situation. My feet stung (刺痛) as the cold air bit through my ankles, so I sat on my feet to keep them warm. The total darkness outside made me sad. As the night progressed my mother said prayers, told stories, and worked very hard to keep us all awake. My dad was strong but his courage was tested; there was a point when he started singing. I had never heard my dad sing but the seriousness in his voice only made me wonder if I would be found frozen or alive. Somehow we all made it through our fears and doubts until the morning’s light. As the sun rose my dad knew he had to go for help. 注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Dad struggled through the deep snow before reaching a farmhouse. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Hours later, we saw a snow-clearing truck come by to clear the road. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Dad struggled through the deep snow before reaching a farmhouse. He knocked on the door, and the owner opened it right away. After hearing what Dad said, the man quickly gave Dad a warm blanket and some food. Dad offered to pay, but the man firmly declined the money. Back in the car, we shared the food and wrapped ourselves in the blanket. The warmth offered momentary relief, but we still felt concerned. Seeing our worried faces, Mom suggested we sing together, her voice soft but stable against the violent wind. Hours later, we saw a snow-clearing truck come by to clear the road. My father rushed out to greet the crew and get their assistance in pulling the blue Ford out of the huge white snow bank. We pulled the car into the farmyard, where it could defrost. Eventually, the engine coughed into life, and we made the journey home — though all of us nursed minor frostbite. Looking back, we’ll always credit those strangers with saving our lives; without their kindness, the storm might have had the last word. I also came to understand the true meaning of the proverb: “One good turn deserves another.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以事件发展为线索展开，主要讲述作者一家风雪夜被困车内，父亲徒步外出求救、最终获救的暖心故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写父亲向农户求助，农户热心提供物资帮助一家人御寒。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写一家人获救、车辆脱困，作者感悟善有善报的道理。 2.续写线索：徒步雪地求救——农户热心相助——车内御寒等待——铲雪车到来救援——车辆脱困归家——感悟善意与回报 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①敲门：knock on /tap at e/bang on ②拒绝：decline/refuse/turn down 情绪类 ①担忧的：concerned/worried/anxious ②坚定的：stable/firm/resolute 【点睛】【高分句型1】After hearing what Dad said, the man quickly gave Dad a warm blanket and some food.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】We pulled the car into the farmyard, where it could defrost.（运用了where引导的非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
