Good to Know: A bachelor’s degree in England, Northern Ireland, and Wales can be completed in three years; in Scotland, four years is standard. Students who are unsure of what they want to study might want to focus on Scottish universities, as these allow students to explore additional subjects during their first year. Students should weigh this additional flexibility against the cost of four-year degree. Academic Calendar: UK academic years run from September to May, with breaks mid-December to early January and in March to late-April. Major exam periods are usually in January and May. Deadlines: The application season opens on September 1st. January 15th is the equal consideration deadline for all other UK universities, which students are encouraged to meet. Some institutions, however, may accept applications after the equal consideration deadline, and up to as late as six weeks before the course starts. Application Fees: UCAS charges applicants 13 pounds for one course, or a total of 24 pounds for multiple courses, up to five. Admission Requirements: Entry requirements for UK institutions are generally transparent (透明的) and direct, and can be found on university websites or by contacting individual admission offices. Any applicant can easily confirm the minimum GPA, test scores, and other requirements for admission. Upon Acceptance: UK universities are usually able to offer admission electronically within two months after an application. Students may be admitted unconditionally or conditionally. An unconditional offer means that the student has no conditions to meet and has a place at the institution if they choose to accept it. A conditional offer is the most common offer made to both UK and international students. If a student has a conditional offer, this means substances to enter brain tissue. The result is inflammation, which is linked to a decline in mental abilities and is commonly seen in disorders such as Alzheimer’s disease. Several years ago, a research team from UCSF discovered that exercising mice produced higher levels of an enzyme (酶) called GPLD1 in their livers (肝脏). GPLD1 appeared to refresh the brain, but there was a mystery. The enzyme itself cannot cross into the brain, leaving scientists unsure how it delivers its cognitive benefits. The new research provides an answer. The scientists found that GPLD1 influences another protein known as TNAP. As mice age, TNAP builds up in the cells that form the blood-brain barrier. This buildup weakens the barrier and increases leakiness. When mice exercise, their livers release GPLD1 into the bloodstream. The enzyme travels to the blood vessels surrounding the brain and removes TNAP from the surface of those cells, helping restore the barrier’s health. To ascertain how GPLD1 functions, the team focused on the strengths of this enzyme. GPLD1 cuts specific proteins from the surface of cells. Researchers searched for tissues containing proteins that could serve as targets and suspected that some of these proteins might accumulate with age. Cells in the blood-brain barrier stood out because they carried several possible GPLD1 targets. When the scientists tested these proteins in the laboratory, only TNAP was cut by GPLD1 32. What is the function of the blood-brain barrier? A. Keeping brain healthy. B. Protecting blood flow. C. Identifying brain disorders. D. Preventing cognitive decline. 33. What effect does GPLD1 have on TNAP according to the new research? A. It changes the structure of TNAP. B. It prevents TNAP from building up. C. It increases the production of TNAP. D. It makes TNAP more active in cells. 34. What does the underlined word “ascertain” in the last paragraph mean? A. Complain. B. Admit. C. Determine. D. Declare. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. The Aging Process of Human Brains B. GPLD1: A Newly-discovered Dangerous Enzyme C. The Harm of Leaky Blood-brain Barrier D. How Exercise Helps Keep the Brain Sharp 第二节 七选五（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Life is inevitably accompanied by various forms of adversity, including academic setbacks, interpersonal conflicts and unexpected failures. 36 As a matter of fact, adversity rarely destroys us completely. Instead, it polishes our character, builds our willpower and prepares us for future challenges. 37 Many individuals tend to feel discouraged and choose to give up when faced with severe obstacles. True courage, however, does not mean the absence of fear. It refers to the ability to keep moving forward despite inner worry and uncertainty, and it can be gradually cultivated through continuous experience. Since adversity is an unavoidable part of growth, we have no way to escape it in our life. 38 . Rather than complaining about unfair situations or avoiding pressure blindly, we should learn to accept difficulties bravely and draw lessons from every failure. Each painful experience serves as a valuable opportunity for self-improvement. Furthermore, it is unwise to fight against severe adversity all by ourselves. 39 . Sincere advice and emotional comfort from people around us can greatly reduce our pressure and offer new solutions to our troubles. In brief, adversity acts as a precious test of our perseverance and courage. A strong mind enables us to survive various tough times. 40 . A. Most students give up their goals because of temporary failure. B. But we are capable of adjusting our attitudes towards adversity. C. Positive attitudes can immediately remove all difficulties in life. D. Courage plays a vital role in overcoming various kinds of adversity. E. External support from others can make a huge difference in hard times. F. Nobody can enjoy a completely smooth and trouble-free life all the time. G. Armed with courage, we can overcome obstacles and achieve self-improvement. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Seven years ago, college senior Joey Romano was skateboarding when he had to take a 41 turn to avoid a speeding car and fell hard, breaking his wrist.

It was a (an) 52 . “Having him spend his entire day with me — a (an) 53 stranger then — absolutely changed my life,” Romano smiles. “It’s what drives me to look for ways to help others whenever I can.” “The world is so 54 right now,” Lukumu says. “What we need to see is the power of human connection, and how 55 acts of kindness can create deep bonds and change lives.” 41.

Mr. and Mrs. Martin wanted to make it warm and lovely, so they decided to do some decorating themselves. That morning, Mrs. Martin stood at the door, reminding her busy husband. “Don’t climb too high, don’t move heavy boxes, and don’t forget to rest,” she said again and again, before she eventually headed out to buy curtains. Earlier, their daughter Emily had called. She said she was tied up with her job in another city, but promised, “Don’t worry, we’ll celebrate together soon.” The couple missed her, of course, but they smiled at each other and agreed it would be meaningful to get the new home ready, a warm welcome awaiting their daughter’s arrival. Mr. Martin waved goodbye to his wife and went back to his decorating work, confident and full of energy at first. But soon the living room turned into a battlefield. Boxes, nails, a hammer and screwdrivers lay everywhere. Paint splashed onto the floor, and the wall looked like a child’s drawing. And several photo frames were scattered on the ground. “A spider!” Mr. Martin climbed onto a shaky stool to chase it away-his wife hated those things — but instead he slipped and broke a photo frame. “Ouch, my back!” he groaned, sweat trickling down his forehead. He began to wonder whether he was really able to do this job alone. Then came a sharp smell from the kitchen. “Oh no, my cake!” Mr. Martin dragged himself to open the oven. The cake, which he had planned to surprise his wife, was now nothing but a hard black rock. He stared at it, shaking his head. “Should I admit the mess? Or pretend nothing happened?” he whispered. Suddenly, the door creaked open. Mrs. Martin stepped inside with the new curtains in her arms. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 For a moment, Mrs. Martin stood frozen. _______________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ With the new curtains finally in place, the doorbell rang. __________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高二英语开学阶段测答案 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 1.

Actually, it is quite normal to feel this way at the beginning of such an important year. Here are two suggestions for you. First, make a reasonable study plan and break big goals into small daily tasks, which will make everything easier to handle. Second, don’t forget to exercise regularly, because a strong body helps you relax and study more efficiently. I believe you will get used to Senior 3 soon. You can make it! Yours, Li Hua 参考范文： Paragraph 1: For a moment, Mrs. Martin stood frozen. Her eyes widened at the messy living room — paint splatters on the floor, scattered tools, and the broken photo frame. When she spotted the blackened cake in the oven, she let out a soft sigh. Mr. Martin lowered his head in shame, ready for criticism. Unexpectedly, Mrs. Martin walked over and gently touched his back. “Are you hurt?” she asked worriedly. Then she smiled, “We’re decorating a home, not building a palace. Mess is part of the fun.” Together, they started cleaning up, with Mr. Martin sharing his clumsy attempts to chase the spider. Paragraph 2: With the new curtains finally in place, the doorbell rang. It was Emily, holding a big bunch of flowers. She stepped inside and gasped, “Wow, it feels like home already!” Her eyes fell on the slightly messy but warm room, and then on the black cake. Mr. Martin scratched his head awkwardly, but Emily laughed and said, “I love it — it’s full of your love.” That evening, they ordered takeout, talked and laughed while arranging photo frames. The messy living room, once a battlefield, had turned into the warmest corner of their new home. 听力原文 1. W: That’s the best festival I’ve ever been to! M: Do you really think so?

I’m David Bowers, your host for the next two days, and I just want to give you some practical information. OK. Coffee, tea, and cold drinks are served all day in the cafe which is just inside the main entrance to the hotel. Lunch is served between 12:00 and 2:30 in the private dining room. This evening you are invited to join the management for drinks by the swimming pool. The General Manager usually makes a short welcome speech. I’d like to apologize for the temperature. I’m afraid it’s a little warmer than usual in here because the air conditioning in the business center is being repaired. However, the work will be completed before lunchtime. Right. There are some changes to the conference program. Unfortunately, one of the main speakers has canceled her talk and so a couple of the sessions have been canceled or rescheduled. The updated program is being printed at the moment. OK, now, before we go for breakfast, are there any questions? 18. 19. 20. M: Good afternoon, everyone. Earlier on in today’s lecture, I mentioned the importance of hand gestures and said that I’d touch on the history of the gestures. I’d like to focus on two in particular: the high five and the handshake. The high-five hand gesture is generally used as a celebration. Many see its origins in baseball. Two US teams lay claim to inventing the high five: the Los Angeles Dodgers in 1977 and the Louisville Cardinals in 1978. It’s quite likely that it was neither, and the gesture might have a much earlier origin. It’s very similar to a 1920s Jazz Age gesture known as the “low five” or “giving skin”. The other gesture I’m going to mention today is the handshake. It dates back as far as ancient Greece. Its original meaning is to convey trust, respect and equality. In the 17th-century European marriage paintings, we find many examples of handshakes between husband and wife. Now, of course, the handshake serves many purposes: meeting, greeting, expressing gratitude or completing an agreement. Besides, it’s also used to offer congratulations, which serves the same purpose as the high five. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。That's the best festival i've ever been to. Do you really think so?
