How the national park was formed Laurence Rockefeller was an American millionaire,businessman and conservationist.He visited St.John in the 1950s. He quickly fell in love with the island's clean, pure beauty.He first purchased a small resort there, Caneel Bay. He also purchased more than 2,000 hectares of the island and donated it to the government.That donation created the U.S.Virgin Islands National Park.It was officially opened as a national park on December 1, 1956. How to get to the park The only way to reach the park is by boat. Some people arrive on their own sailboats. Others come in on large cruise ships.Visitors also arrive on water taxis from the island of St. Thomas. What to do at the park From the tropical hills to the blue waters,there are many things to do at the Virgin Islands National Park. Visitors enjoy fishing,camping,sailing,scuba diving, snorkeling (浮潜), and bird watching. Of all of the park's beaches, Trunk Bay Beach is said to be the most striking. Below the clear blue water is a 200-meter snorkeling path. Hawksnest Beach is also a popular place for snorkeling. Near the shore are three small reefs of Elkhorn Coral. The Elkhorn Coral gets its name from its shape. The reef looks similar to the huge horns (角) of an animal called elk. It is a very rare kind of reef.Scientists say it is in danger of becoming extinct. The Virgin Islands National Park is often called America's paradise. It protects St. John's pristine nature, and preserves the record of human history in the Caribbean. Don't hesitate! Come here and put yourself in the paradise! 21．What is most likely attractive to tourists when they visit the Virgin Islands National Park? A．Its tropical climate. B．Its location. C．Its beautiful scenery. D．Its activity. 22．What can we learn about the Virgin Islands National Park? A．An animal called elk is at risk of becoming dying out. B．Visitors can choose any means of transportation to get to the park. C．Laurence's donation greatly contributed to the foundation of the park. D．There is a 200-meter snorkeling path beneath the water of the Hawksnest Beach. 23．Where is the text probably taken from? A．A speech script. B．A travel brochure. C．An academic essay. D．A geographic journal. B My birth was a little more dramatic than the standard way a baby enters the world. I was born missing my left hand. Indeed, my limb (手臂) difference could have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. A nurse placed me in my mother’s arms and instructed, “You will take her home. You will love her and treat her as normal.” That is exactly what happened. I played sports, acted in theater, excelled in school and had playdates with friends. While I did get some stares and “polite” questions about my disability, I was lucky because I wasn’t made fun of for it. However, that fact that I was different hit me hard on my first day of high school. I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-conscious and the need to fit in is intensified. I remember one of the other kids on the school bus stared just a little too long at my left arm. I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I slipped it into my pocket. I told myself that I’d just hide it that one day, while I was trying to make friends. But one day of hiding turned into a week, a month, and years — 25 of them to be exact. When I was 38 years old, tired of hiding and lonely, I met someone special and invited him in. The combination of me finally feeling ready to unhide and his willingness to go through the unhiding process with me was exactly what I needed. For the first time in my life, I allowed someone to really hold my limb, look at it, touch it, love it — love me. I saw my limb difference as something unique about me, something that should be shown, not hidden. It was a transformational experience, and I learned to love me too. It changed how I lived my entire life and made me happier. I also discovered and joined the Lucky Fin Project, an organisation devoted to people with all types of disabilities. Hiding things, especially from loved ones, is tiring and lonely, and it prevents us from getting help and support. It’s time to change that. 24．What was the author’s childhood like? A．She had no social interactions with friends. B．She was raised with care and treated normally. C．She faced some challenges in school activities. D．She was upset about the attention to her difference. 25．What happened to the author when she was 13 years old? A．She began to ignore her disability. B．She suffered prejudice from some kids. C．She started hiding herself away from friends. D．She became sensitive due to her self-awareness. 26．How did the author change when she stopped hiding? A．She started to open up and be herself. B．She met someone who cured her disability. C．She was fed up with the company of others. D．She reduced involvement in the disability group. 27．What can we learn from this passage? A．Misfortune is a good teacher. B．Disability is not a barrier to success. C．Self-acceptance can lead to self-love. D．Nothing beats the feeling of being loved. C The negative nature of peer pressure is often presented without question. The undesirable effect of peer pressure cannot be denied, but is it also possible that peer pressure might not entirely deserve its bad reputation? Could peer pressure also have positive effects on the personal development and behavior of young people? A look at the scientific literature reveals exactly that: peer pressure is not always a force for the dark side. Many studies suggest that peer pressure and the desire to conform (顺从) are simply a part of being human. Humans, after all, are highly social beings. If humans are hard-wired to respond to peer pressure, then it makes sense to examine how it can be used to change behavior in a positive way. Imagine a situation: student X has always enjoyed playing the guitar but is lazy and unmotivated. Although initially unwilling, she is persuaded to join a school band. The group of students is preparing for a performance and the existing members are enthusiastic, focused and hardworking. Gradually, student X is caught up in the spirit of the band and before long she is willingly making the same commitment of time and effort so they can all achieve a common goal. So how does it work? Peer pressure — both positive and negative — follows a recognizable psychological process. If student X does not conform to the established culture of the band, she risks rejection. To dispel this tension, student X changes her habits and increases the amount of time and energy she devotes to practice. Some psychologists describe this rearrangement of personal goals or standards to achieve harmony as part of a group as an “identity shift”. The key to understanding the concept of peer pressure and its power over humans is to closely examine the science of the process, rather than focus on its negative aspects. Providing a one-dimensional view of the concept encourages the bias(偏见) that peer pressure is a strictly undesirable feature of human society. Instead, we should be exploring ways to use its power for good. 28．Why does the author raise the two questions about peer pressure in paragraph 1? A．To present misinterpretations of it. B．To encourage reflection on it. C．To doubt the investigations into it. D．To show general perceptions of it. 29．What should student X do to fit into the band? A．Enhance her leadership. B．Stick to her old routines. C．Learn to play more instruments. D．Invest more energy in playing the guitar. 30．What does the underlined word “dispel” in paragraph 3 mean? A．Hide. B．Sense. C．Remove. D．Display. 31．How does the author look at peer pressure? A．It can be put to good use. B．It is an unwanted feature of human society. C．It goes far beyond scientific explanation. D．It has more advantages than disadvantages. D Foreign drivers will have to pay on- the- spot fines of up to £600 for breaking the traffic law to be enforced (强制实施) next month. If they do not have enough cash or a working credit card, their vehicles will be clamped (扣留) until they pay — and they will face an additional fee of £60 for getting back their vehicles. The new law will also apply to British citizens. The fines will be described officially as “deposits” when the traffic law takes effect, because the money would be returned if the driver went to court and was found not guilty. In practice, very few foreign drivers are likely to return to Britain to deal with their cases. Foreign drivers are rarely charged because police cannot take legal action against them if they fail to appear in court. Instead, officers often merely give warnings. Three million foreign-registered vehicles enter Britain each year. Polish vehicles make up 36 percent, French vehicles 10 percent and German vehicles 9 percent. Foreign vehicles are 30 percent more likely to be in a crash than British-registered vehicles. The number of crashes caused by foreign vehicles rose by 47 percent between 2018 and 2023. There were almost 400 deaths and serious injuries and 3,000 slight injuries from accidents caused by foreign vehicles in 2023. The new law is partly intended to settle the problem of foreign lorry drivers ignoring limits to weight and hours at the wheel. Foreign lorries are three times more likely to be in a crash than British lorries. Recent spot checks found that three quarters of lorries that failed safety tests were registered overseas. The standard deposit for a careless driving offence — such as driving too close to the vehicle in front or reading a map at the wheel — will be £300. Deposits for speeding offences and using mobile phones will be £60. Foreign drivers will not get points as punishment added to their licenses, while British drivers will. 32．What do we know about the new traffic law? A．It has been well carried out. B．Drivers must pay their fines in cash. C．Vehicles will be clamped for breaking the law. D．It is intended for both foreign and British drivers. 33．What do we know about foreign vehicles in Britain? A．Many foreign vehicles have been fined in Britain. B．Half a million French vehicles enter Britain every year. C．30% of foreign vehicles cause road accidents in Britain. D．Officers prefer to warn foreign drivers rather than take them to court. 34．According to the passage, what might be a reason for carrying out the law? A．To increase the income of British police. B．To lower the rate of traffic accidents and injuries. C．To cut down the number of foreign lorries entering Britain. D．To get foreign drivers who cause accidents to appear in court. 35．What would be the best title for the passage? A．Foreign Drivers Face Heavy Punishment in Britain B．Strict New Measures for Traffic Safety in the UK C．Challenges of Enforcing Traffic Law on Foreign Vehicles D．British and Foreign Drivers Equally Subject to New Traffic Law 第二节(共5小题; 每小题2.5分, 满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The game of baseball has long been woven into the fabric of American life. It is no surprise then that the baseball glove is associated with fond memories. 36 It is also an example of a product that has been perfected over time. Originally, baseball was played without gloves because the balls were home-made and soft. Made from string covered with leather or cotton sacks stuffed with rags, the balls were easier on the hand. The late 19th century saw baseballs made by machine and standardized across the United States to be tighter and harder, and they were capable of hurting a catcher’s hands. 37 Baseball gloves were initially just leather work gloves adapted to suit the player’s needs. 38 However, the simple padded work gloves could not prevent knuckles (指关节) from bursting, fingers from splitting and bones from breaking. The solution? More padding was added to the glove. 39 This design changed little until the late1930s, when an extra flap web that looked like a fishing net was added between the thumb and the fingers. This made it possible for first basemen to catch thrown balls more easily, revolutionizing the function of the glove. During the first half of the 20th century, fielders’ gloves evolved steadily to improve their catch. Field glove designs were adapted with longer fingers, deeper pockets and larger webs between the thumb and the fingers. New designs also added lace between the fingers, making it easier for players to catch the ball. Even more significantly, a new glove design was introduced in 1957, with a special feature in the heel of the glove’s palm, which allowed the glove to completely fold around the ball. 40 This characteristic has become the standard for glove design to this day. Catchers’ and first basemen’s gloves also adopted this style. From fingerless work gloves to flashy gloves designed for each position, the evolution of the baseball glove since the early days of professional baseball is as fascinating as the game itself. Due to technological advances, we may look forward to even newer designs for baseball gloves. A．Behind every glove is a great glove story. B．If a glove is well cared for, it can last decades. C．This led to gloves being designed to soften the catch. D．However, the baseball glove is more than an item of emotional value. E．Thanks to this new design, fielders could easily snatch (一下夺过) the ball with only one hand. F．Early first baseball glove designs were specialized from the padded fielders’ glove to an open glove design. G．For example, catchers’ gloves were work gloves without fingers to allow the player to better handle the ball. 第三部分语言运用(共两节, 满分30分) 第一节(共15小题; 每小题1分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Our old, artificial Christmas tree was in rough shape by the time we withdrew it. At least a decade had passed since my wife and I 41 the tree from the Christmas retail market in Brooklyn, a medium-sized fir with built-in lights, and moved it on the subway to our previous 42 . Over the years, we dragged that tree from apartment to apartment, 43 it onto a moving truck to Los Angeles and later crammed the 44 box which was centuries-old, this time to Chicago and our 45 home. By the end, layers of tape held the box together, the wear and tear of a decade of 46 holiday cheer. Our little tree looked run 47 , but it was the only tree our family ever knew. It stood 48 and glowing in the background of photos of me and my 49 pregnant wife during our last Christmas in Brooklyn without children. She was eagerly expecting the baby’s coming. Our 50 was born a month later during a January snowstorm. The tree 51 again in the next year’s photos, this time surrounded by holiday gifts for a boy about to 52 one. Then it appeared in photos of our son and his 1-month-old brother. And in more recent photos, our tree lighted up 53 overlooking glistening Chicago snow. This year, after much debate, we decided to 54 our dear old tree, with its 55 branches and the lights that had burned out years ago. Rather than feel terribly blue, we used the moment to launch a new family tradition: our first real Christmas tree. 41．A．brought B．sought C．bought D．held 42．A．apartment B．yard C．garage D．balcony 43．A．changed B．jammed C．pinned D．passed 44．A．painted B．polished C．weathered D．transformed 45．A．current B．instant C．shabby D．spacious 46．A．signalling B．delivering C．adapting D．receiving 47．A．away B．out C．off D．down 48．A．still B．quiet C．proud D．free 49．A．happily B．newly C．motherly D．dearly 50．A．nicer B．braver C．faster D．older 51．A．took up B．pulled up C．showed up D．put up 52．A．count B．turn C．secure D．grow 53．A．stairs B．bars C．doors D．windows 54．A．revise B．reject C．refresh D．retire 55．A．stuck B．stretched C．bent D．lit 第二节(共10小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Chinese restaurants began to open in America in the mid-19th century, clustering (集中) on the west coast where the first immigrants landed. They mostly served 56 unique version of Cantonese cuisine — chop suey, egg fu yung and the like. In that century and much of the 20th century, the immigrants largely 57 (flow) from China’s south-east regions, mainly Guangdong province. Restaurants began calling their food “Hunan” and “Sichuan”, and though it 58 (true) bore much resemblance to 59 was eaten in those regions, it was more diverse and boldly spiced 60 the sweet, fried stuff that defined the earliest Chinese menus. By the 1990s, adventurous diners in cities with sizeable Chinese populations could choose many regional cuisines. A particular 61 (favor) — Sichuan food, made its diners addictive with its extremely chilly dishes. Virtually every small town had one Chinese restaurant and, generally, the menus were the same: 62 (steam) pork dumplings; sour soup; stir-fries listed by main ingredients, 63 a pepper star suggesting the amount of pepper. But there were slight changes in some cities. For instance, in Boston, takeaways often come with bread 64 feature a dark molasses-sweetened sauce, a special cuisine developed in upper Manhattan 65 (meet) diners’ novel taste. 第四部分 写作(共两节, 满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 66．校园处处皆风景，然而总有一些角落被我们不经意间忽视。你校校刊特设英文专栏“Sharing Beauty”，旨在带领大家一同发现校园中那些鲜为人知的美丽之处。请你根据以下提示撰写一篇短文投稿。内容包括： 1. 介绍这个地方； 2. 分享发现契机； 3. 说明分享理由。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A Surprising Discovery ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节(满分25分) 67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Emily Harper sat at her desk, staring blankly at the math problems in front of her. Numbers and variables danced confusingly across the page, laughing at her every effort. At school, Emily was known for her artistic talents, but math had always been her weakness. No matter how hard she tried, she just couldn’t make sense of it. Her struggles only worsened in the 10th grade. The pressure to keep up with her classmates grew, and the poor grades shook her confidence. Her parents decided to step in. “We need to find you some help.” her mother gently suggested one evening. Then came Mr. Jenkins, a retired local teacher known for his unique teaching style. Emily was initially resistant; the idea of spending extra hours on a subject she hated seemed like a punishment. But she unwillingly agreed, knowing something had to change. Their first session was tense. Mr. Jenkins, sensing her frustration, didn’t dive straight into problems. Instead, he asked about her interests. When Emily spoke passionately about her painting, he smiled. “Math is like art, Emily. It has patterns and beauty if you know where to look.” Doubtful but inspired, Emily listened as he began to explain concepts through visual examples. He used colors and shapes, turning abstract numbers into something almost tangible (有形的). For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language and more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. However, progress was slow. Weeks passed with minimal improvement, and Emily’s patience wore thin. A particularly difficult quiz left her in tears, convinced she was sure to fail. Mr. Jenkins said. “Remember, Emily, every artist starts with a blank canvas, Masterpieces aren’t created overnight.” Encouraged by his firm belief, Emily pushed on. She began to see the connections between the steps, and Mr. Jenkins celebrated every progress she made, no matter how minor it was. (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Gradually, Emily’s confidence grew with Mr. Jenkins’ help. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 株洲四中高三年级开学考试试题英语答案 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 C B C A B C C A C B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C A A C A C B A B C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 C C B B D A C B D C 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 A D D B A D C G F E 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 C A B C A B D C A D 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 C B D D C 1．C 【原文】M: Grace, we are planning to attend another event on the Great wall.

Then, if you’re ready, preschool children will be going out of this front door and their parents should go together. Outside this door, you will see a flag as the marker for your area. There will be some helpers to direct you. If you are in the first to third grade, you’re going right outside that back door to search in the yard. The parents of this group are welcome to go with the children. Finally, the fourth graders, please, follow me down the hall through the double doors and to the other side of the center where you’ll be going to look for your gifts. There’s plenty for everyone. 21．C 22．C 23．B 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍了美国维尔京群岛国家公园的概况、怎么去这个公园、以及在这个公园可以做一些什么。 【详解】21．细节理解题。根据第一段“The island’s white sand beaches and clear blue seas are considered to be among the most beautiful in the Caribbean,gaining reputation and popularity among visitors across the world.(岛上的白色沙滩和清澈的蓝色海洋被认为是加勒比海最美丽的海滩之一，在世界各地的游客中赢得了声誉和欢迎。)”可知，游客们最有可能被它的美丽景色吸引。故选C。 22．细节理解题。根据第二段“He also purchased more than 2,000 hectares of the island and donated it to the government.That donation created the U.S.Virgin Islands National Park.(他还购买2000多公顷的土地并捐赠给了政府。这笔捐赠创建了美国维尔京群岛国家公园。)”可知，是他的这笔捐款促成了维尔京群岛国家公园的建立。故选C。 23．推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Don’t hesitate! Come here and put yourself in the paradise!(不要犹豫！来，置身于天堂！)”以及小标题“How to get to the park”和“What to do at the park”可知，此文摘自于旅游手册。故选B。 24．B 25．D 26．A 27．C 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者生来残疾，小时候被好好照顾，直到中学时自我意识觉醒对周围的目光变得敏感，将自己隐藏起来，到38岁时决定敞开做自己，不再隐藏，接收自己的不完美。作者意识到只有自我接纳，才能好好爱自己。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Indeed, my limb difference could have been a disaster if it hadn’t been for what happened next. A nurse placed me in my mother’s arms and instructed, “You will take her home. You will love her and treat her as normal.”(事实上，如果没有接下来发生的事情，我的肢体差异可能是一场灾难。一位护士把我放在母亲的怀里，嘱咐我说:“你带她回家。你会爱她，像对待正常人一样对待她。”)”及第二段“That is exactly what happened. I played sports, acted in theater, excelled in school and had playdates with friends. While I did get some stares and “polite” questions about my disability, I was lucky because I wasn’t made fun of for it.(事实正是如此。我参加体育运动，在剧院表演，在学校表现优异，和朋友一起玩。虽然我确实得到了一些关于我的残疾的凝视和“礼貌”的问题，但我很幸运，因为我没有因此而被取笑)”可知，作者虽然天生残疾，但是在童年时代受到了精心照料，受到正常的对待。故选B。 25．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“I was 13, an age when kids are already very self-conscious and the need to fit in is intensified. I remember one of the other kids on the school bus stared just a little too long at my left arm. I felt a sudden urge to hide my hand, so I slipped it into my pocket.(我13岁，这个年纪的孩子已经很有自我意识了，融入社会的需求也越来越强烈。我记得校车上的一个孩子盯着我的左臂看了太久。我突然有一种想把手藏起来的冲动，于是我把它塞进了口袋)”可知，当作者13岁的时候，由于有了自我意识，作者对于周围的目光十分敏感。故选D。 26．细节理解题。根据文章倒数第三段“The combination of me finally feeling ready to unhide and his willingness to go through the unhiding process with me was exactly what I needed. For the first time in my life, I allowed someone to really hold my limb, look at it, touch it, love it—love me. I saw my limb difference as something unique about me, something that should be shown, not hidden.(我终于觉得自己准备好了袒露自己，而他愿意和我一起经历袒露的过程，这正是我所需要的。这是我人生中第一次，我允许别人真正地握住我的胳膊，看它，摸它，爱它——爱我。我认为我的肢体差异是我的独特之处，应该被展示出来，而不是被隐藏起来)”可知，当作者停止隐藏时，她开始敞开心扉，做自己。故选A。 27．推理判断题。根据全文内容，作者生来残疾，小时候被好好照顾，直到中学时自我意识觉醒对周围的目光变得敏感，将自己隐藏起来，到38岁时决定敞开做自己，不再隐藏，接收自己的不完美，结合倒数第二段“It was a transformational experience, and I learned to love me too.(这是一次转变的经历，我也学会了爱自己)”及最后一段“Hiding things, especially from loved ones, is tiring and lonely, and it prevents us from getting help and support.(隐藏事情，尤其是对所爱的人，是很累和孤独的，它阻止我们得到帮助和支持)”可推知，作者在成长过程中感悟到了，接收自己才能爱自己。由此推知，从文章中我们知道了“自我接纳会导致自爱”。故选C。 28．B 29．D 30．C 31．A 【导语】本文是议论文。文章讨论了同伴压力的正面影响，并通过学生X的例子，强调同伴压力在激发积极行为和个人发展方面的潜力。 28．推理判断题。根据第一段“The negative nature of peer pressure is often presented without question. The undesirable effect of peer pressure cannot be denied, but is it also possible that peer pressure might not entirely deserve its bad reputation? Could peer pressure also have positive effects on the personal development and behavior of young people? A look at the scientific literature reveals exactly that: peer pressure is not always a force for the dark side.(同辈压力的消极性质通常是毫无疑问的。同伴压力的不良影响是不可否认的，但是否也有可能同伴压力并不完全配得上它的坏名声呢？同辈压力是否也会对年轻人的个人发展和行为产生积极影响？科学文献揭示了这一点：同辈压力并不总是黑暗面的力量)”可知，作者在第一段首先指出同伴压力的负面影响毋庸置疑, 接着提出了两个问题: 同伴压力是否也有可能不完全是负面的? 同伴压力是否也会对年轻人的个人发展和行为产生积极影响? 作者最后指出, 科学文献表明同伴压力并不总是负面的。由此可推知，作者提出这两个问题是为了引起人们对同伴压力的反思，从而提出自己的观点——同伴压力并不总是负面的。故选B。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段“Gradually, student X is caught up in the spirit of the band and before long she is willingly making the same commitment of time and effort so they can all achieve a common goal.(渐渐地，学生X被乐队的精神所吸引，不久之后，她愿意付出同样的时间和精力，这样他们就可以实现一个共同的目标)”和第三段“If student X does not conform to the established culture of the band, she risks rejection.(如果学生X不符合乐队的既定文化，她就有被拒绝的风险)”可知，如果学生 X 想融入乐队，就需要和成员们一起努力，投入更多时间和精力练习吉他。故选D。 30．词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“If student X does not conform to the established culture of the band, she risks rejection.(如果学生X不符合乐队的既定文化，她就有被拒绝的风险)”以及后文“student X changes her habits and increases the amount of time and energy she devotes to practice(学生X改变了自己的习惯，增加了练习的时间和精力)”可知，学生X改变了她的习惯，投入了更多的时间和精力练习，她这样做就是为了不被排斥，即为了消除由于害怕被排斥而带来的紧张。故划线词意思是“消除”。故选C。 31．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Instead, we should be exploring ways to use its power for good.(相反，我们应该探索如何利用它的力量做好事)”可知，作者认为同伴压力可以被很好地利用起来。故选A。 32．D 33．D 34．B 35．A 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍的是为了减少交通事故的发生，英国将实行一种新的交通法规。外国司机如果在英国违反交通法，须当场缴纳罚款。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段“Foreign drivers will have to pay on- the- spot fines of up to £600 for breaking the traffic law to be enforced next month.(外国司机将因违反下个月开始实施的交通法规而被当场罚款高达600英镑。)及第三段中的“The new law will also apply to British citizens.(这项新法律也将适用于英国公民。)”可知，这种新的法规同样适用于英国公民，所以这项新规定既适合外国司机，也适合英国司机。故选D项。 33．细节理解题。根据第四段“Foreign drivers are rarely charged because police cannot take legal action against them if they fail to appear in court. Instead, officers often merely give warnings.(外国司机很少受到指控，因为如果他们没有出庭，警方无法对他们采取法律行动。相反，警察通常只是发出警告。)”可知，外国司机如果不出庭，警方就无法对他们采取法律行动，通常只是发出警告而不是把他们告上法庭。故选D项。 34．推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“Foreign vehicles are 30 percent more likely to be in a crash than British-registered vehicles. The number of crashes caused by foreign vehicles rose by 47 percent between 2018 and 2023. There were almost 400 deaths and serious injuries and 3,000 slight injuries from accidents caused by foreign vehicles in 2023.(外国车辆发生车祸的可能性比英国注册的车辆高30%。从2018年到2023年，外国汽车造成的撞车事故数量增加了47%。2023年，外国车辆造成的事故造成近400人死亡和重伤，3000人轻伤。)”可知，外国汽车造成的事故率比英国本土汽车高出30%，而且事故率有逐年上升的趋势，并造成了严重的伤亡，结合倒数第二段中的“The new law is partly intended to settle the problem of foreign lorry drivers ignoring limits to weight and hours at the wheel.(新法的部分目的是为了解决外国卡车司机无视重量和驾驶时间限制的问题。)”可知，外国卡车司机无视重量和驾驶时间限制的问题，这都会造成事故的发生，由此可推断，采取新的规定都是为了减少事故发生。故选B项。 35．主旨大意题。根据第一段“Foreign drivers will have to pay on- the- spot fines of up to £600 for breaking the traffic law to be enforced next month.(外国司机将因违反下个月开始实施的交通法规而被当场罚款高达600英镑。)”以及下文中介绍的导致英国对外国司机制定新规的原因可知，本文主要介绍的外国司机造成的汽车事故不断上升，造成了严重的伤亡，所以英国制定新规对外国司机的违法行为进行重罚，题目“外国司机在英国面临重罚”与本文的内容一致，且可以概括本文的主题，适合作为最佳标题。故选A项。 36．D 37．C 38．G 39．F 40．E 【导语】本文是说明文。讲述了棒球手套的演变是一个通过创新不断改进的过程。 【详解】36．根据前文“The game of baseball has long been woven into the fabric of American life. It is no surprise then that the baseball glove is associated with fond memories.(棒球运动早已融入美国人的生活。因此，棒球手套与美好的回忆联系在一起也就不足为奇了)”以及后文“It is also an example of a product that has been perfected over time.(它也是一个随着时间不断完善的产品的例子)”可知，空处应是过渡句，所以D项“However, the baseball glove is more than an item of emotional value.(然而，棒球手套不仅仅是一件具有情感价值的物品)”和前文构成转折关系，引出下文，符合文意。故选D项。 37．根据前文“The late 19th century saw baseballs made by machine and standardized across the United States to be tighter and harder, and they were capable of hurting a catcher’s hands.(19世纪后期，棒球由机器制造，并在美国标准化，变得更紧、更硬，而且能伤到接球手的手)”可推知，针对棒球会伤到接球手的手这一问题，结合全文讲棒球手套的演变，可知该空内容与人们设计出一种手套以减轻接球时的疼痛有关，C项“This led to gloves being designed to soften the catch.(这导致了手套的设计，以软化捕获)”是前句产生的结果，符合文意。故选C项。 38．根据第二段尾句“Baseball gloves were initially just leather work gloves adapted to suit the player’s needs.(棒球手套最初只是皮革工作手套，以适应球员的需要)”以及后文“However, the simple padded work gloves could not prevent knuckles (指关节) from bursting, fingers from splitting and bones from breaking. The solution? More padding was added to the glove.(然而，简单的填充工作手套并不能防止指关节破裂，手指裂开，骨头断裂。解决方案?更多的填充物被添加到手套中)”可知，此处在讲述刚开始的棒球手套的缺点，所以G项“For example, catchers’ gloves were work gloves without fingers to allow the player to better handle the ball.(例如，接球手的手套是没有手指的工作手套，以便球员更好地处理球)”是在举例说明早期手套的样子，承接上文，和后文构成转折关系，符合文意。故选G项。 39．根据后文“This design changed little until the late 1930s, when an extra flap web that looked like a fishing net was added between the thumb and the fingers. This made it possible for first basemen to catch thrown balls more easily, revolutionizing the function of the glove.(这种设计直到20世纪30年代末才发生了变化，当时在拇指和手指之间增加了一个看起来像渔网的额外襟翼。这使得一垒手能够更容易地接住投掷的球，彻底改变了手套的功能)”可知，空处应是提到了一种使用了较久的手套设计，手套设计与有“额外襟翼”便于接球相关，所以F项“Early first baseball glove designs were specialized from the padded fielders’ glove to an open glove design.(早期的棒球手套设计从加垫的守备球员手套发展到了开放式手套设计)”符合文意。故选F项。 40．根据前文“Field glove designs were adapted with longer fingers, deeper pockets and larger webs between the thumb and the fingers. New designs also added lace between the fingers, making it easier for players to catch the ball. Even more significantly, a new glove design was introduced in 1957, with a special feature in the heel of the glove’s palm, which allowed the glove to completely fold around the ball.(Field glove的设计适应了更长的手指，更深的口袋和更大的拇指和手指之间的网。新的设计还增加了手指之间的花边，使球员更容易接球。更重要的是，1957年推出了一种新的手套设计，在手套手掌的后跟处有一个特殊的设计，可以让手套完全折叠在球周围)”以及后文“This characteristic has become the standard for glove design to this day.(这一特点至今已成为手套设计的标准)”可知，此处讲述新型手套的设计和优点，让它成为手套设计的标准，所以E项“Thanks to this new design, fielders could easily snatch (一下夺过) the ball with only one hand.(由于这种新的设计，外野手可以很容易地用一只手抓住球)”是对这种设计优点的解释，符合文意。故选E项。 41．C 42．A 43．B 44．C 45．A 46．B 47．D 48．C 49．A 50．D 51．C 52．B 53．D 54．D 55．C 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一家多年来使用同一棵人造圣诞树的经历，以及最终决定更换新树的故事。

She started to approach math problems with newfound enthusiasm. Instead of dreading them, she would actively seek solutions, applying the techniques Mr. Jenkins had taught her. She no longer saw math as an insurmountable obstacle but as an exciting challenge. In class, she began to volunteer answers, much to the surprise of her teachers and classmates. Her after-school study sessions became a time of exploration rather than frustration. She would spend hours practicing, often losing track of time as she delved deeper into the world of numbers. Emily’s heart raced when the results day arrived. She had worked so hard, and the thought of seeing if it had paid off filled her with both excitement and anxiety. As she opened the envelope containing her math test results, her eyes widened. A broad smile spread across her face. She had passed with flying colors! She couldn't wait to tell Mr. Jenkins. His unwavering belief in her and his unique teaching methods had finally borne fruit. This achievement was not just a victory in math but a testament to her own perseverance and the power of a great teacher. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了 Emily 在数学学习上困难重重，10 年级时压力增大，父母找来 Mr. Jenkins 辅导她。Mr. Jenkins 用独特方式教学，虽进展缓慢，但 Emily 在他鼓励下坚持学习。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在詹金斯先生的帮助下，埃米莉的信心逐渐增强。”可知，第一段可描述 Emily 在信心增长后对待数学的积极态度转变，如主动解题、课堂积极表现；讲述她课后积极练习的状态。 ②由第二段首句内容“成绩公布那天到来时，埃米莉的心怦怦直跳。”可知，第二段可描写 Emily 等待成绩时的紧张心情；看到通过考试且成绩优异的惊喜反应；表达对 Mr. Jenkins 的感激以及此次经历的感悟。 2.续写线索：信心增长——态度积极转变——课后积极练习——成绩公布紧张——看到好成绩惊喜——感激老师及感悟。 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①寻求：seek /look for ②探索：explore /probe ③告诉：tell/inform 情感类： ①热情：enthusiasm /passion ②兴奋：excitement /thrill 【点睛】【高分句型1】Instead of dreading them, she would actively seek solutions, applying the techniques Mr. Jenkins had taught her.（运用了现在分词作伴随状语和省略that或者which引导的定语从句） 【高分句型2】She had worked so hard, and the thought of seeing if it had paid off filled her with both excitement and anxiety. （运用了if引导的宾语从句） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
