保密★启用前 厦门大学附属科技中学 2025年 高中创新班招生考试 英语试卷 考试时间：90分钟 满分：100分 毕业学校：________ 姓名：________ 准考证号：________ 注意事项：本试卷Ⅰ至Ⅲ大题（1-50题）为选择题，请考生将答案用2B铅笔填涂在答题卡上；Ⅳ至Ⅴ大题为非选 择题，请考生将答案用0.5毫米黑色签字笔书写在答题卡上。 Ⅰ．选择填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳答案。 1. — What kind of apartment do you like? — I like the apartment ________ 2 bedrooms and a balcony. A. have B. has C. with D. of 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查介词。句意：——你喜欢什么样的公寓？——我喜欢带有两间卧室和一个阳台的公寓。答句中已有谓语动词like，且无连词，故空格处不能填入谓语动词have或has。此处需用介词短语作后置定语修饰the apartment，介词with意为“带有，具有”，符合语境。 2. I think ________ important ________ English every morning. A. that; keep reading B. it’s; keeping reading C. that; to keep read D. it; to keep reading 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：我认为每天早晨坚持读英语很重要。本题考查“think it + 形容词 + to do sth.”句型，其中it作形式宾语，真正的宾语是后面的动词不定式，表示“认为做某事是……的”，所以第一空使用it，keep doing sth.为固定搭配，意为“坚持做某事”，所以第二空应为to keep reading。 3. In our grade, ________ number of English teachers is about fifty. And most of them are ________ A. the; women teachers B. a; women teachers C. the; woman teachers D. a; woman teachers 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：在我们年级，英语老师的数量大约是五十人，并且他们中大多数是女老师。 the number of表示“……的数量”，作主语时谓语动词用单数；a number of表示“许多”，作主语时谓语动词用复数。根据句中的谓语动词“is”可知，第一空应填the。由“man/woman+名词”构成的复合名词变复数时，两个词都要变成复数形式，所以“女老师”的复数应为women teachers。 4. — Do you prefer grapes ________ bananas? — I prefer grapes ________ bananas. A. or; or B. or; to C. than; to D. or; than 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查连词和固定搭配。句意：——你喜欢葡萄还是香蕉？——比起香蕉，我更喜欢葡萄。第一空为选择疑问句，表示“还是”，需用连词or连接两个并列的选项；第二空考查固定搭配prefer A to B，意为“比起B更喜欢A”，需用介词to。 5. The tickets for The Wandering Earth ________ well, and they will ________ soon. A. are sold; sell out B. are sold; sold out C. sell; be sold out D. sell; sold out 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：《流浪地球》的电影票卖得很好，并且它们很快就会被卖光。sell与well等副词连用时，常用主动形式表示被动意义，说明主语的性质或状态，故第一空填sell；第二空主语they指代the tickets，与sell out（卖光）之间是被动关系，需用被动语态，且位于助动词will之后，故填be sold out。 6. — When will you ________? — I will go to see you as soon as I ________ the airport. A. reach, arrive in B. reach, arrive at C. arrive, will get to D. arrive, reach 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你什么时候到？——我一到机场就会去见你。A. reach, arrive in到达，到达；B. reach, arrive at到达，到达；C. arrive, will get to到达，将到达；D. arrive, reach到达，到达。第一空后无宾语，需用不及物动词arrive，排除A和B选项；第二空，as soon as（一……就……）引导时间状语从句，遵循“主将从现”原则，即主句用一般将来时，从句用一般现在时表将来，使用reach。 7. An old man ________ on the side of the road was found ________, and he was sent to the hospital by the bus driver and passengers immediately. A. lies; dies B. lay; died C. lain; dead D. lying; dying 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词和形容词。句意：一位躺在路边的老人被发现奄奄一息，公交车司机和乘客们立即把他送往了医院。第一空处，句子已有谓语动词was found，且没有连词，故此处需用非谓语动词作后置定语修饰An old man。动词lie（躺）与逻辑主语An old man之间是主动关系，故使用现在分词lying。第二空处，考查“find+宾语+宾语补足语”的被动结构，此处需填入形容词作主语补足语，表示主语的状态。老人被紧急送医，说明是处于濒死状态而非已经死亡，故使用形容词dying（奄奄一息的）。 8. Yesterday Li Ming went to the village in ________ he lived five years ago. A. when B. which C. where D. that 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：昨天李明去了他五年前住过的村子。空格处引导定语从句，修饰先行词the village，指物。由于空格前有介词in，构成“介词+关系代词”结构。在定语从句中，当先行词指物且介词提前时，关系代词只能使用which，不能使用that或where。 9. The teacher found him ________ and gave him some different homework to do every day. A. was clever B. was a clever boy C. a clever boy D. to be clever 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：老师发现他是一个聪明的男孩，并且每天给他布置一些不同的作业去做。动词find后常接复合宾语结构，即“find + 宾语 + 宾语补足语”，宾语补足语可以由名词、形容词、分词等充当。本题中，him为宾语，选项C为名词短语，作宾语him的补足语，构成find sb. + n.的固定结构，意为“发现某人是……”。 10. — May I play with my dog? — I am afraid not. You can’t play with it ________ you finish your homework A. when B. before C. after D. because 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我可以和我的狗玩吗？——恐怕不行。在你完成作业之前，你不能和它玩。A. when当……时；B. before在……之前；C. after在……之后；D. because因为。根据上下文“You can’t play with it ________ you finish your homework”，此处表示在完成作业之前不能玩狗。 Ⅱ．阅读理解（共两节，25小题；满分50分） 第一节 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容，从题中所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳答案。（共20小 题；每小题2分，满分40分） A Fun Water Park Fun Water Park is a must-go park in Sunshine City.

Huang was known as the chief designer of China’s first nuclear submarines (核潜艇) and had received many high honors. From the 1950s to the 1980s, Huang played a key role in developing China’s first nuclear submarines, the Type 09I and Type 09II. His work was a secret for 30 years. In 1970, he and his team successfully launched China’s first nuclear submarine, which performed better than the first US nuclear submarine launched (使……下水) in 1954. As China’s navy (海军) shared more information, stories about Huang and his team became widely known. People started to call him the ______. Huang was born in Guangdong Province in 1926. He studied shipbuilding at National Chiao Tung University (now Shanghai Jiao Tong University) from 1945 to 1949. Later, he became one of the first scientists to work on China’s nuclear submarine program. In 1958, because of his excellent skills and qualities, Huang was secretly called to Beijing and worked hard in secret on the program for the next 30 years. He and his team started from scratch (从头开始) and overcame many difficulties to build the country’s first nuclear submarine. Huang’s life was full of achievements.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了核潜艇之父黄旭华隐姓埋名三十年，攻坚克难研制中国首艘核潜艇，一生为国奉献、荣获多项国家最高荣誉、捐资科教的伟大事迹。 【16题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Huang was known as the chief designer of China’s first nuclear submarines (核潜艇) and had received many high honors.(黄旭华是我国首代核潜艇总设计师，曾斩获多项很高的荣誉。)”可知，黄旭华是中国核潜艇事业的主要开创者，人们称他为中国核潜艇之父。 【17题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“His work was a secret for 30 years.(他的工作保密了30年。)”以及第四段中的“He and his team started from scratch (从头开始) and overcame many difficulties to build the country’s first nuclear submarine.(他和团队白手起家，克服重重困难，造出了我国第一艘核潜艇。)”可知，他的核潜艇研制工作既是秘密进行的，又充满挑战。 【18题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“From 2017 to 2020, he was awarded national-level honors three times by President Xi Jinping.(从2017年到2020年，他三次被习近平主席授予国家级荣誉。)”可知，黄旭华在此期间共获得三次国家级荣誉。 【19题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Huang was born in Guangdong Province in 1926. He studied shipbuilding at National Chiao Tung University (now Shanghai Jiao Tong University) from 1945 to 1949.(黄旭华于1926年出生在广东省，1945 年至1949年就读于国立交通大学（现上海交通大学）船舶制造专业。)”、“In 1958, because of his excellent skills and qualities, Huang was secretly called to Beijing and worked hard in secret on the program for the next 30 years.(1958 年，由于黄旭华技艺精湛、品行出众，他被秘密调往北京，在此后三十年里隐姓埋名、潜心投身相关项目研究。)”、第二段中的“In 1970, he and his team successfully launched China’s first nuclear submarine(1970年，他和他的团队成功让中国首艘核潜艇下水)”以及第五段中的“In 2019, he was awarded the Medal of the Republic(2019年，他被授予共和国勋章)”可知，黄旭华人生事件的正确顺序是：（3）在国立交通大学求学→（2）被调往北京研发核潜艇→（4）我国首艘核潜艇下水→（1）获共和国勋章，对应顺序3-2-4-1。 【20题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“He spent his whole life developing China’s nuclear submarine industry and national defense, inspiring us to strive (努力) to make the country stronger.(他毕生致力于发展中国核潜艇事业和国防事业，激励我们努力奋斗，使国家更加强大。)”可推断，黄旭华的一生启示我们要努力奋斗、报效祖国、强国兴邦。 C People choose where to live for many reasons — the house, the location, or good schools — but almost never because of who their neighbors might be. Since we can’t choose our neighbors, fences (栅栏) help create comfortable boundaries (边界) between homes. According to sociologist (社会学家) Douglas B. Currivan, most people want to know their neighbors just a little bit, but not too much. Fences mark where one property (财产) ends and another begins. They let people enjoy their private space while still being able to wave hello from a comfortable distance. Fences also prevent common neighbor problems like noisy pets or children wandering into others’ yards. Research shows that clear boundaries actually help neighbors get along better. “When property lines are unclear, arguments between neighbors are more likely,” explains Professor Daniel Stokols. Surprisingly, fences can even improve neighborhood safety. Studies show that burglars (入室窃贼) are less likely to target homes with fences, even small decorative ones, because they signal (示意) that the owners care about their property. However, the type of fence matters a great deal. A very tall, solid fence might seem unfriendly, while a shorter fence or a row of bushes feels more welcoming. Some people use plants or small walls to mark property lines in a nicer way. There are even “spite fences” — unusually tall or ugly fences built just to annoy neighbors, which sometimes lead to legal problems. While fences separate properties, they can also bring neighbors together by creating a sense of security and order. One New York resident, Karen Pace, discovered this when she removed an old fence and suddenly felt uncomfortable without her private outdoor space. Good neighbors are careful about each other’s space when putting up fences, and good fences help neighbors maintain just the right amount of friendly distance. 21. What is the main purpose (目的) of fences in marking properties? A. To decorate the yard beautifully. B. To attract wildlife to the neighborhood. C. To provide shade for outdoor activities. D. To show where one person’s land stops and another’s starts. 22. According to the article, why do burglars avoid homes with fences? Because fences ________. A. are too expensive to climb over. B. show that owners value their property. C. make too much noise when they are touched. D. are always dangerous. 23. What can we infer about “spite fences” from the text? A. They are built to protect pets. B. They are designed to be beautiful. C. They are meant to annoy neighbors. D. They help neighbors become closer. 24. What did Karen Pace discover when she removed her old fence? A. Her neighbors became much friendlier. B. She felt uncomfortable without her private outdoor space. C. Her property value increased immediately. D. Burglars started targeting her home. 25. Which of the following would be the BEST title for this article? A. The History of Fences B. Why We Should Remove All Fences C. Good Fences Make Good Neighbors D. The Most Expensive Fences in the World 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C 24. B 25. C 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了人们很少因邻居选住处，栅栏能划分住宅边界、减少邻里矛盾、提升住宅安全。不同栅栏观感不同，合适的栅栏能兼顾隐私，维持恰当友好的邻里距离。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Fences mark where one property (财产) ends and another begins.(栅栏标明了一处财产在哪里结束，另一处财产在哪里开始)”可知，栅栏在标记财产方面的主要目的是显示土地的边界。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Studies show that burglars (入室窃贼) are less likely to target homes with fences, even small decorative ones, because they signal (示意) that the owners care about their property.(研究表明，入室窃贼不太可能选择有围栏的住宅作为目标，即使这些围栏只是小型装饰性围栏，因为它们会暗示屋主重视自己的财产)”可知，窃贼避开有栅栏的房屋是因为这表明主人很重视自己的财产。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“There are even “spite fences” — unusually tall or ugly fences built just to annoy neighbors, which sometimes lead to legal problems.(甚至还有“恶意围栏”——这种围栏异常高大或丑陋，仅仅是为了惹恼邻居，有时还会引发法律纠纷)”可知，“恶意栅栏”的建造目的就是为了让邻居感到心烦。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“One New York resident, Karen Pace, discovered this when she removed an old fence and suddenly felt uncomfortable without her private outdoor space.(纽约居民Karen Pace在拆除旧栅栏时发现了这一点，没有了私人的户外空间，她突然感到不舒服)”可知，当她拆除旧栅栏后，失去了私人空间让她感到不适。 【25题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Good neighbors are careful about each other’s space when putting up fences, and good fences help neighbors maintain just the right amount of friendly distance.(好邻居在建围栏时会注意彼此的私密空间，而良好的围栏有助于邻里之间保持恰到好处的友好距离)”以及文章主要探讨了栅栏在邻里关系中的积极作用，指出栅栏能划定边界、保护隐私、减少争端并提升安全感。因此，选项C“好栅栏造就好的邻里关系”最能概括文章的核心思想，是最佳标题。 D Wetlands are land areas covered by water most of the time. This can either be fresh water, salty water or mixed water. They form naturally or are made by humans when water collects and cannot run off. Wetlands are on almost every continent (大洲). Wetlands are really important. They are home to about 100,000 kinds of animals, and 40% of the world’s plants and animals depend on wetlands to live. Wetlands also help fight climate change by taking in lots of carbon (碳) to reduce CO2 in the air. During heavy rains, they take in water to reduce flooding, and in dry seasons, they slowly let stored water go to help fight droughts (干旱). Over 1 billion people live on wetlands for jobs like fishing, rice farming, and tourism. In fact, food grown in wetlands feeds more than half of the world’s population. However, wetlands are disappearing fast. Since 1970, more than 33% of wetlands have been lost. Wastes from people’s daily life and factory production harm these areas. Dams (水坝) stop rivers and this shrinks wetlands. Invasive species (入侵物种) also cause problems. Some plants grow quickly, pushing out local species and harming fish by reducing O₂. Protecting wetlands requires global action. In 1971, 172 countries signed the Convention on Wetlands to protect these ecosystems. For example, in 2020, China’s wetland protection rate was 52.7%, with a planned increase of 2.4% every five years. And the UK plans to create and restore 1,000 km² of wetlands by 2050. It isn’t just governments’ responsibility to protect wetlands. Everyone can help. Simple actions like planting native (本土的) trees near rivers, or joining clean-up activities make a difference. By valuing wetlands and working together, we can protect these important ecosystems for our planet’s future. 26. Wetlands ________. A. are only covered by fresh water B. aren’t created by humans C. can help fight climate change D. can’t be used to grow rice 27. What does the underlined word “shrinks” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Puts down. B. Cuts down. C. Cleans up. D. Builds up. 28. Which of the following action can protect wetlands? A. Reducing polluted water. B. Building more dams. C. Growing foreign plants. D. Protecting all species. 29. Which picture correctly shows China’s planned wetland protection rate by 2025? Protection Rate A. B. C. D. 30. What does the writer want to tell us in the last two paragraphs? A. What and where are wetlands? B. What problems do wetlands face? C. Why are wetlands important? D. How can wetlands be protected? 【答案】26. C 27. B 28. A 29. D 30. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了湿地的定义、重要性、面临的威胁以及保护湿地的措施，旨在唤起人们对湿地保护的重视。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段第三句“Wetlands also help fight climate change by taking in lots of carbon (碳) to reduce CO2 in the air. (湿地还通过吸收大量碳来减少空气中的二氧化碳，从而帮助应对气候变化。)”可知，湿地能够帮助应对气候变化。 【27题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段第三至五句“Wastes from people’s daily life and factory production harm these areas. Dams (水坝) stop rivers and this shrinks wetlands. Invasive species (入侵物种) also cause problems. (人们日常生活和工厂生产的废物损害了这些地区。水坝阻挡河流并shrinks湿地面积。入侵物种也带来了问题。)”可知，本段在列举湿地消失的原因，其中水坝阻挡河流会对湿地造成的应是负面影响，“shrinks”应为“减少、缩小”之意，符合语境。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“Wastes from people’s daily life and factory production harm these areas. (人们日常生活和工厂生产的废物损害了这些地区。)”可知，污染会损害湿地，因此减少污染水有助于保护湿地。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第三句“For example, in 2020, China’s wetland protection rate was 52.7%, with a planned increase of 2.4% every five years. (例如，2020年，中国的湿地保护率为52.7%，计划每五年增加2.4%。)”可知，2020年的保护率是52.7%，2025年是第一个五年节点，保护率应为52.7% + 2.4% = 55.1%。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段第一句“Protecting wetlands requires global action. (保护湿地需要全球行动。)”以及第五段前两句“It isn’t just governments’ responsibility to protect wetlands. Everyone can help. (保护湿地不仅仅是政府的责任。每个人都帮得上忙。)”可知，最后两段主要讨论的是保护湿地的方法和行动，包括国家和个人的努力。D选项 “How can wetlands be protected? (湿地如何被保护？)”准确地概括了这两段的主要内容。 第二节 阅读下面短文，从短文后所给的六个选项中选出能填入短文空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连 贯，意思完整（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Studying is usually the least favourite thing among students.

Shouldn’t studying be a fun activity to do, especially in the path of acquiring (获得) knowledge?(学习通常是学生最不喜欢的。大多数学生不喜欢学习。为什么？学习不应该是获取知识道路上一件有趣的活动吗？)”以及下文“If you want to be good at studying, it is very important to have good study habits. Here are some tips.(如果你想擅长学习，有良好的学习习惯非常重要。以下是一些建议。)”可知，上文指出学生普遍不爱学习的现象并提出疑问，下文引出培养学习习惯的方法，本句需要解释出现该现象的原因。选项D表示“也许你的学习方法错了。”，能承上启下，符合题意。 【32题详解】 由上文“Firstly, in order to study, you must always choose a quiet area as this will help you to stay focused.(首先，为了学习，你必须总是选择一个安静的区域，因为这有助于你保持专注。)”以及下文“A school, a public library, a coffee shop, or a quiet corner of your house can all be good places to study.(学校、公共图书馆、咖啡馆或家里安静的角落都是学习的好地方。)”可知，上文强调学习需要安静环境，下文列举各类安静学习地点，本句需要反向说明嘈杂环境的弊端。选项B表示“嘈杂的环境对你根本没有任何帮助。”，能承上启下，符合题意。 【33题详解】 由上文“Organizing study groups is another useful tip. Group members can help one another work through difficult problems, provide encouragement, and make studying more enjoyable.(组织学习小组是另一个有用的建议。小组成员可以互相帮助解决难题，提供鼓励，让学习更愉快。)”以及下文“Make sure you stay away from distractions, at least until it’s time to take a break.(确保远离干扰，至少到该休息的时候。)”可知，上文介绍学习小组的诸多好处，下文提出学习时的注意事项；由于前后存在转折关系，本空要说明有一点需要注意，选项E表示“然而，有一点你应该记住。”，能承上启下，符合题意。 【34题详解】 本空位于段首，是主旨句。根据下文“Some of you might prefer to read aloud, make colourful notes or watch video clips to help remember, while some may prefer to listen to sounds. Besides, some people work best in the mornings and others do better in the evenings.(你们有些人可能喜欢大声朗读、做彩色笔记或看视频来帮助记忆，而有些人可能喜欢听声音。此外，有些人早上效率最高，有些人晚上更好。)”可知，下文说明了不同的学习方式和时间偏好，本句需要概括出适配自身的学习风格，选项F表示“此外，试着找到最适合自身的学习方式。”，能概括本段主旨，符合题意。 【35题详解】 由上文“Lastly, practise, practise, practise! Musicians practise their instruments. Athletes practise sports skills.(最后，练习，练习，再练习！音乐家练习乐器。运动员练习运动技能。)”以及下文“If you want to be able to remember information, the best thing you can do is practise.(如果你想记住信息，你能做的最好的事情就是练习。)”可知，上文列举音乐家、运动员都需要练习的事例，下文点明学习同样需要练习，本空需要说明学习也应如此，选项A表示“学习也应如此。”，能承上启下，符合题意。 Ⅲ．完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳答案。 My father’s friend Bernie has a big store to sell fruits and vegetables.

A 41. A 42. D 43. C 44. B 45. B 46. A 47. B 48. A 49. D 50. D 【解析】 【导语】文章通过作者回忆童年时与父亲的朋友一起吃西瓜的经历，揭示了“富有”的真正含义。 【36题详解】 考查名词。句意：当我还是个孩子的时候，西瓜是一种特别的款待。A. dish菜肴；B. meal餐食；C. treat款待，乐事；D. order订单。根据后文“Every summer, when the first watermelons arrive, we go to his store to ____ the watermelon.”可知，每年夏天第一批西瓜到来时，作者一家会去伯尼的店里，这已成为一种惯例和享受，说明西瓜对作者来说是一种特别的款待。 【37题详解】 考查动词。句意：每年夏天，当第一批西瓜到货时，我们就去他的店里品尝西瓜。A. sell卖；B. watch观看；C. plant种植；D. taste品尝。根据后文“Bernie takes a knife and cuts open a watermelon.”可知，伯尼切开西瓜应是为了让大家品尝，且下文详细描述了吃西瓜的情景，故此处应为“品尝”。 【38题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：我们迅速拿起西瓜，坐在码头上双腿悬垂，稍微弯下腰，这样汁水就不会弄到衣服上。A. eat up吃光；B. pick up拿起，捡起；C. put up举起，张贴；D. clean up清理。根据前文“Bernie takes a knife and cuts open a watermelon.”可知，西瓜被切开后，正常的动作顺序应是先“拿起”西瓜，然后到码头边坐下享用。 【39题详解】 考查名词。句意：我们迅速拿起西瓜，坐在码头上双腿悬垂，稍微弯下腰，这样汁水就不会弄到衣服上。A. knife刀；B. fruit水果；C. juice汁水；D. drink饮料。根据常识和本句中的“won’t get on our clothes”可知，西瓜切开后及吃西瓜时都会有汁水，弯腰是为了防止西瓜汁滴到衣服上。 【40题详解】 考查形容词。句意：我们只吃最好的部分——甜的、多汁的、红色的中心，没有籽，其余部分扔掉。A. sweet甜的；B. soft软的；C. light轻的；D. balanced均衡的。根据本句中的“the best part”以及“juicy, red center”可知，西瓜中心最美味的部分应是“甜的”。 【41题详解】 考查表语从句。句意：起初，我认为那就是我父亲认为他富有的原因。A. why为什么；B. how怎样；C. when什么时候；D. where在哪里。根据前文“My father says Bernie is a rich man. Bernie has a lot of money.”可知，父亲说伯尼很富有，他有很多钱，作者最初以为这就是父亲认为他富有的原因，空处需要引导表示原因的表语从句，应用why。 【42题详解】 考查动词。句意：但后来，我明白了，因为他懂得如何享受生活。A. think认为；B. remember记住；C. mistake弄错；D. understand明白。根据前文“At first, I think that’s ____ my father thinks he is rich.”可知，作者最初对“富有”的理解是肤浅的，后来通过与伯尼的相处逐渐明白什么是真正的富有，并且文章最后的感慨“Now, I am truly____.”也验证了他“明白，理解”了。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：伯尼努力工作，但他也花时间与朋友一起享受生活，并且只吃西瓜的“心”（最甜美的部分）。A. rest剩余部分；B. seed籽；C. heart心，中心部分；D. water水。根据第一段最后一句“We eat only the best part — the ____, juicy, red center with no seeds (籽) and throw away the rest part.”可知，西瓜最美味的中心部分被作者称为“heart”，用“heart”呼应前文，表示伯尼懂得享受生活中最美好的部分。 【44题详解】 考查动词。句意：有些人拥有很多却很少放松。A. sleep睡觉；B. relax放松；C. exercise锻炼；D. win赢。根据后文“Others don’t have much and live a ____ life, but they still feel rich.”可知，前后形成对比，前文说有些人有钱但不“放松”自己，后文说有些人没钱但依然感到富有。且结合全文主题“懂得享受生活才是真正的富有”，此处应为“放松”。 【45题详解】 考查形容词。句意：另一些人没有多少钱，过着贫穷的生活，但他们仍然感到富有。A. perfect完美的；B. poor贫穷的；C. special特别的；D. healthy健康的。根据本句中的“don’t have much”可知，有些人没有多少钱，生活应是“贫穷的”。且与后文“but they still feel rich”形成转折。 【46题详解】 考查连词。句意：如果你不花时间坐在码头上，悬着双腿，与他人分享那些小小的快乐时刻，那么工作可能正在占据你的生活。A. If如果；B. So所以；C. Unless除非；D. Because因为。分析句子可知，空处应填连词，且根据句意，前半句“you don’t take time to sit on the dock, hang your legs, and share small happy moments with others”是条件，后半句“work might be taking over your ____.”是结果，空处应用If引导条件状语从句。 【47题详解】 考查名词。句意：如果你不花时间坐在码头上，悬着双腿，与他人分享那些小小的快乐时刻，那么工作可能正在占据你的生活。A. age年龄；B. life生活；C. trouble麻烦；D. family家庭。根据全文内容可知，作者在倡导享受生活，如果只忙于工作而不享受快乐时光，工作就会占据“生活”，与前文多次提到的“enjoy life”形成呼应。 【48题详解】 考查名词。句意：很多年来，我忘记了这一课。A. lesson教训，课；B. store商店；C. result结果；D. choice选择。根据第三段第一句“Now I learn that being rich is not just about money.”可知，作者从伯尼身上领悟到了一个道理，即“富有不仅仅是关于金钱”，这是作者所学到的一“课”。 【49题详解】 考查动词。句意：我太忙于赚钱和追求成功了。A. focus专注；B. move移动；C. travel旅行；D. succeed成功。根据本句中的“too busy trying to make money”可知，作者忙于追逐物质财富，与之并列的应是“追求成功”。 【50题详解】 考查形容词。句意：现在，我真的富有了。A. interested感兴趣的；B. common普通的；C. excited激动的；D. rich富有的。根据前文“Now, I remember again. I hope I still have time to enjoy life. That’s the center of the watermelon.”可知，作者重新记起了享受生活的重要性，懂得了真正的富有是懂得享受生活，因此他觉得自己现在真正“富有”了，这与全文主题“真正的富有不仅是金钱，更是懂得享受生活”相呼应。 Ⅳ．短文填空（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，根据语境或所给单词的提示，在每个空格内填入一个或两个恰当的词，要求所填的词意义准确、形式正确，使短文意思完整、行文连贯。 NE ZHA 2 is a smash hit! On February 7, it became the world’s highest-grossing (票房最高的) film in a single market. This ____51____ (happen) just one day after it topped the Chinese box office (票房). As Ne Zha 2 becomes more popular, many are already looking forward to the third movie in the series. “Don’t make me wait for ____52____ five years!” fans said online.

New creations can have some fresh ____56____ (idea) without losing the best part of the series. For example, the famous line from the first movie, “I’m the master of my own fate!” Now, the message goes a step further: “Everyone has the chance to become great.” From the start, the movie catches the viewers’ attention. The Dragon King gets his revenge (复仇); Ne Zha and Ao Bing get their bodies back; the sea demons attack in full force. One ____57____ (excite) scene follows another. They keep the viewers on the edge of their seats. The story is also about the characters. “Each character has their own life,” Jiaozi explained. He doesn’t like the idea of thinking in black and white. Shen Gongbao is the ____58____ (great) one in the movie. He is much more than the “bad guy” he looks like. All these make Ne Zha 2 become successful. It ____59____ (love) by people deeply. But there are more than just these, aren’t there? What else in the movie leaves _____60_____ deep impression on you? 【答案】51. happened 52. another 53. to 54. into 55. However 56. ideas 57. exciting 58. greatest 59. is loved 60. a 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍电影《哪吒2》的票房成绩、观众期待、导演的创作态度、影片亮点以及人物塑造特点。 【51题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：这一幕发生在它登顶中国票房的仅一天之后。此处为谓语动词，句子叙述过去发生的事情，要用一般过去时，所以谓语动词为happened。 【52题详解】 考查限定词。句意：“别让我再等五年了！”网上粉丝说。结合句意，此处表示“又一、再一”，所以用another。故填another。 【53题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：但是导演饺子不会急于推出他的下一部作品。此处为固定搭配try to do sth.，意为“尽力做某事、急于做某事”，所以用动词不定式符号to。 【54题详解】 考查介词。句意：他会继续不忘初心，全力以赴投入自己的创作工作。此处为固定搭配put effort into sth.，意为“致力于、投入精力做某事”，所以此处为介词into。 【55题详解】 考查副词。句意：然而，“不忘初心”并不意味着一成不变。此处位于句首，表转折关系，修饰整个句子，所以用副词however，首字母大写。故填However。 【56题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：新作可以在保留系列精华的同时拥有一些全新的想法。idea为可数名词，空前有some修饰，所以用复数形式ideas。 【57题详解】 考查形容词。句意：一个又一个令人激动的场面接踵而至。此处修饰名词scene，需要形容词作定语，exciting用于修饰事物，意为“令人激动的”，所以用exciting。故填exciting。 【58题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：申公豹是这部电影里最立体丰满的角色。根据语境及定冠词the可知，此处用形容词最高级，great的最高级为greatest。故填greatest。 【59题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：它深受人们的喜爱。此处为谓语动词，主语It与love之间为被动关系，句子陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为is loved。 【60题详解】 考查冠词。句意：影片中还有哪些内容给你留下了深刻的印象？impression为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一个深刻的印象”，为泛指，且deep是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。 Ⅴ．书面表达（满分15分） 61. 回首过去三年，哪一次的劳动经历，给你留下深刻印象？你从中获得了什么感悟，成就了今天意气风发的自己？假如你是李华，请写一封信，向你的英国笔友Peter分享你的劳动经历，以及从中获得的感悟。 注意： 1. 文中不得出现真实的人名和校名； 2. 词数100词左右；信的称谓、落款已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Peter, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Peter, Last week, our school held an activity called Labor Week.

B Huang Xuhua, a famous scientist in China, passed away at the age of 99 on February 6th, 2025 in Wuhan, due to illness. Huang was known as the chief designer of China’s first nuclear submarines (核潜艇) and had received many high honors. From the 1950s to the 1980s, Huang played a key role in developing China’s first nuclear submarines, the Type 09I and Type 09II. His work was a secret for 30 years. In 1970, he and his team successfully launched China’s first nuclear submarine, which performed better than the first US nuclear submarine launched (使……下水) in 1954. As China’s navy (海军) shared more information, stories about Huang and his team became widely known. People started to call him the ______. Huang was born in Guangdong Province in 1926. He studied shipbuilding at National Chiao Tung University (now Shanghai Jiao Tong University) from 1945 to 1949. Later, he became one of the first scientists to work on China’s nuclear submarine program. In 1958, because of his excellent skills and qualities, Huang was secretly called to Beijing and worked hard in secret on the program for the next 30 years. He and his team started from scratch (从头开始) and overcame many difficulties to build the country’s first nuclear submarine. Huang’s life was full of achievements. From 2017 to 2020, he was awarded national-level honors three times by President Xi Jinping. In 2019, he was awarded the Medal of the Republic, and in 2020, he got the highest science and technology award in China for 2019. Huang cared about China’s future in science and technology and the growth of young people. He donated over 20 million yuan to support scientific research, education, and the spread of scientific knowledge. He spent his whole life developing China’s nuclear submarine industry and national defense, inspiring us to strive (努力) to make the country stronger. 16. Which one is the best to fill in the blank? A. Teacher of the Year B. Founder of Shanghai Jiao Tong University C. Best Scientist in the World D. Father of China’s Nuclear Submarines 17. What can we know about Huang’s work on nuclear submarines? A. It was easy but slow. B. It was secret and challenging. C. It was public and difficult. D. It was boring but important. 18. How many national-level honors did Huang Xuhua receive from 2017 to 2020? A. Two. B. Three. C. Six. D. Eight. 19. Which of the following is the right order of Huang Xuhua’s life? (1) Received the Medal of the Republic. (2) Was called to Beijing to work on the nuclear submarine program. (3) Studied at National Chiao Tung University. (4) Launched China’s first nuclear submarine. A. 3-2-4-1 B. 2-3-4-1 C. 1-4-2-3 D. 4-1-3-2 20. What can we learn from Huang Xuhua’s life? A. Work hard and make our country strong. B. Care about his own family. C. Live his life in secret all the time. D. Study shipbuilding in Beijing C People choose where to live for many reasons — the house, the location, or good schools — but almost never because of who their neighbors might be. Since we can’t choose our neighbors, fences (栅栏) help create comfortable boundaries (边界) between homes. According to sociologist (社会学家) Douglas B. Currivan, most people want to know their neighbors just a little bit, but not too much. Fences mark where one property (财产) ends and another begins. They let people enjoy their private space while still being able to wave hello from a comfortable distance. Fences also prevent common neighbor problems like noisy pets or children wandering into others’ yards. Research shows that clear boundaries actually help neighbors get along better. “When property lines are unclear, arguments between neighbors are more likely,” explains Professor Daniel Stokols. Surprisingly, fences can even improve neighborhood safety. Studies show that burglars (入室窃贼) are less likely to target homes with fences, even small decorative ones, because they signal (示意) that the owners care about their property. However, the type of fence matters a great deal. A very tall, solid fence might seem unfriendly, while a shorter fence or a row of bushes feels more welcoming. Some people use plants or small walls to mark property lines in a nicer way. There are even “spite fences” — unusually tall or ugly fences built just to annoy neighbors, which sometimes lead to legal problems. While fences separate properties, they can also bring neighbors together by creating a sense of security and order. One New York resident, Karen Pace, discovered this when she removed an old fence and suddenly felt uncomfortable without her private outdoor space. Good neighbors are careful about each other’s space when putting up fences, and good fences help neighbors maintain just the right amount of friendly distance. 21. What is the main purpose (目的) of fences in marking properties? A. To decorate the yard beautifully. B. To attract wildlife to the neighborhood. C. To provide shade for outdoor activities. D. To show where one person’s land stops and another’s starts. 22. According to the article, why do burglars avoid homes with fences? Because fences ________. A. are too expensive to climb over. B. show that owners value their property. C. make too much noise when they are touched. D. are always dangerous. 23. What can we infer about “spite fences” from the text? A. They are built to protect pets. B. They are designed to be beautiful. C. They are meant to annoy neighbors. D. They help neighbors become closer. 24. What did Karen Pace discover when she removed her old fence? A. Her neighbors became much friendlier. B. She felt uncomfortable without her private outdoor space. C. Her property value increased immediately. D. Burglars started targeting her home. 25. Which of the following would be the BEST title for this article? A. The History of Fences B. Why We Should Remove All Fences C. Good Fences Make Good Neighbors D. The Most Expensive Fences in the World D Wetlands are land areas covered by water most of the time. This can either be fresh water, salty water or mixed water. They form naturally or are made by humans when water collects and cannot run off. Wetlands are on almost every continent (大洲). Wetlands are really important. They are home to about 100,000 kinds of animals, and 40% of the world’s plants and animals depend on wetlands to live. Wetlands also help fight climate change by taking in lots of carbon (碳) to reduce CO2 in the air. During heavy rains, they take in water to reduce flooding, and in dry seasons, they slowly let stored water go to help fight droughts (干旱). Over 1 billion people live on wetlands for jobs like fishing, rice farming, and tourism. In fact, food grown in wetlands feeds more than half of the world’s population. However, wetlands are disappearing fast. Since 1970, more than 33% of wetlands have been lost. Wastes from people’s daily life and factory production harm these areas. Dams (水坝) stop rivers and this shrinks wetlands. Invasive species (入侵物种) also cause problems. Some plants grow quickly, pushing out local species and harming fish by reducing O₂. Protecting wetlands requires global action. In 1971, 172 countries signed the Convention on Wetlands to protect these ecosystems. For example, in 2020, China’s wetland protection rate was 52.7%, with a planned increase of 2.4% every five years. And the UK plans to create and restore 1,000 km² of wetlands by 2050.
