But faced with these seemingly straightforward questions, I was speechless. Amid the routine work and technical details, I had lost sight of how my work fitted in with the research hypothesis and the overall system we were investigating. This wasn’t the first time I had lost track of my research goals. In earlier endeavors, including my master’s degree and research internships, I had focused on running as many experiments, performing as many meta-analyses, and generating as many results as I could. I welcomed details and grew accustomed to getting lost in them. When I felt lost, I instead assumed my problem was lack of technical expertise. But my PhD supervisor’s comment helped me realize my detail-loving approach alone would no longer cut it. I realized that one solution might be as simple as slowing down a bit. I started taking periodic breaks from running experiments to reflect on the “so what” of the studies I was conducting. I also learned tremendously from two postdocs, who helped me balance top-down and bottom-up thinking by connecting experiment planning and data analysis with overall study objective. They helped me develop the habit of always asking ahead of time how a specific experiment or analysis would help answer the hypothesis. This led to more structured, focused thinking about subsequent steps. With time, I began to complement my love of details with an ability to evaluate the how and why of research tasks and the relevance of my work beyond the experiments, data, and analyses. I was still getting lost in the details, but I was now able to understand why. I have realized that big-picture thinking is one of the many adaptable, universal skills one can get from a PhD．And I’m happy my mentors (导师) and managers pushed me to develop it. 24．(2.5分)What used to be the author’s primary issue during the research? A．Lack of technical expertise. B．Losing sight of the research goals. C．Difficulty in extracting genomic DNA． D．Failing to answer the supervisor’s questions. 25．(2.5分)What’s the function of paragraph 2? A．To provide more examples. B．To state the author’s good work habits. C．To offer a solution to the author’s issue. D．To show the author’s educational background. 26．(2.5分)What strategy did the author use to approach his problem? A．Focusing on details more carefully. B．Increasing the number of experiments. C．Speeding up the experimental process. D．Taking breaks to engage in self-reflection. 27．(2.5分)What does the author want to tell us from his own experiences? A．Mentors are essential for providing technical expertise. B．Top-down thinking is better for research than bottom-up thinking. C．Big-picture thinking helps you stay focused on the overall objective. D．Self-reflection is important when you encounter setbacks in research. （本题10分）People at your age, like classmates, are peers. When they influence your decisions or actions, it’s called peer pressure — something all of us have faced and must deal with at some point in our life. The need to follow the crowd and do what the majority are doing forces us to take up activities which we wouldn’t otherwise engage in. Recent studies show peer pressure can bring an upside: it makes you reflect on your actions and improve. Observing others working hard to reach their goals will definitely encourage you to make a great effort to achieve something positive. For example, when a teen knows that his teammates are practicing hard to become better players, it will directly affect his own performance. He will put in twice the time and energy to raise the level of his game and ensure he has a place on the team. Positive peer groups also help you develop healthy habits that shape your personality and future. If friends read regularly or exercise daily, you may adopt these habits too, with peer pressure turning into motivation. However, just as everything has two sides, peer pressure also has negatives. It can lower self-confidence; some kids give in to fit in, avoid mockery (嘲笑), or satisfy curiosity, abandoning good judgment for “everyone’s doing it.” It may also distance you from loved ones, making teens feel misunderstood and drawn to bad company. Peer pressure affects many areas of life, from clothes to music. It can be hard to resist, forcing you into discomfort. Thus, recognizing and choosing positive peer influences for healthy, happy experiences is a lifelong task. 28．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “upside” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Risk B．Advantage C．Difficulty D．Change 29．(2.5分)Which of the following is a result of positive peer pressure? A．A student starts reading often because his friends do. B．A teen smokes to avoid being laughed at by peers. C．A child skips homework to play with classmates. D．A teenager keeps secrets from parents to fit in. 30．(2.5分)Why do some kids give in to negative peer pressure? A．To learn from others’ good habits B．To keep up with the crowd and avoid being mocked C．To double their effort in team training D．To develop a lifelong good habit 31．(2.5分)What is the author’s suggestion towards peer pressure? A．Ignore all peer influences in daily life B．Give in to peer pressure to fit in with the group C．Recognize and choose positive peer influences D．Stay away from all peers to avoid pressure （本题10分）Social conflicts, from policy debates to family disagreements, can easily develop into angry words and personal attacks. Such heated conflicts, however, seldom settle disagreements and can lead to worse results. A better approach to dealing with interpersonal disagreements is to apply features of wisdom, like humility (谦虚), diverse viewpoints and open-mindedness. But applying these elements of wisdom can be difficult, especially during conflicts. The trick, according to research published in the journal Psychological Science, is to train yourself in advance to reason about interpersonal conflicts in a wiser manner. “People typically fail to reason wisely when facing social conflicts so we designed a way to help them,” said Igor Grossmann, director of the Wisdom and Culture Lab at the University of Waterloo, Canada. “Our basic idea is to train people to see situations from a more objective, third-person angle (角度). This approach enables people to recognize the limitations of their knowledge and the different ways the conflict may lead to, and consider and balance different viewpoints.” According to the researchers, by changing the angle from the first person to the third person, a person is able to get a better understanding of his or her own knowledge and enjoy different views. To test their assumption (假设), the researchers conducted two field experiments. Grossmann said, “Our research showed the effectiveness of the third- person diary writing for a change in wisdom compared to the first-person diary reflection, and indicated that the third- person self-reflection led to gradual change in wise reasoning about personally challenging interactions.” The data suggest that this increase in wise reasoning happened because the third-person self-reflection broadened people’s typically narrow self-focus. This research provides the evidence for training wise reasoning in daily life when people are dealing with challenging interactions. 32．(2.5分)Why is it significant to settle the social conflicts? A．Conflicts may lead to failure. B．Conflicts can result in a worse situation. C．Conflicts can avoid one’s self-reflection. D．Conflicts can push people to think differently. 33．(2.5分)What can help to reduce the conflicts according to the author? A．Self-awareness. B．Agreed standard. C．Broad viewpoints. D．Firm determination. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn from Grossmann’s findings? A．Social conflicts can increase people’s reasoning ability. B．First-person reflection improves the problem-solving skills. C．Self-focus is helpful in dealing with interpersonal disagreements. D．Third-person diary reflection can increase the ability to solve conflicts. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Reflection Matters in Decreasing Disagreements B．Social Conflicts Do Great Harm to Interpersonal Relationships C．The Wisdom of Problem-solving Lies in Challenges D．Training in Wise Reasoning Helps to Cope with Social Conflicts （本题12.5分）Watching a film critically is a skill worth developing because it helps you learn what makes a film good according to your own tastes. What makes the early films of a director great fun while the later ones a total mess? 36(2.5分) Here, we take a look at how you can watch films more critically. Give the film your undivided attention at least once. Filmmakers accept that they won’t always have their audience’s undivided attention. Significant plot points will be highlighted with incidental music so that you focus. 37(2.5分) Try, just once, to watch the film as they intended. Consider the themes the film explored. Picking out the themes and assessing how the film treats them is a central point of film criticism. It might be an uncomfortable allegory (讽喻). 38(2.5分) For instance, The Lion King drew on the plot of Hamlet. Does it breathe new life into the story and take it in an interesting direction? Analyze sound, lighting and production. You may only notice sound if the levels are all wrong and the incidental music drowns out the dialog. Lighting, similarly, you may only notice if everything is so bright that it looks like the action is taking place in a dentist’s office. 39(2.5分) You might consider how the choice of costume brightens a character. 40(2.5分) It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that there is something that is objectively good or bad. But if you find yourself loving a film that other people seem to dislike, that isn’t necessarily a sign that there’s something wrong with your taste. It could be that a film’s sense of humor agrees with your own, or that a film reflects your life experiences. A．Don’t forget that it’s all subjective. B．Think about why you did or didn’t enjoy it. C．Try to train yourself to see these aspects of a film every time. D．Why do some films excite people while others send people to sleep? E．How was the film constructed to provide a new insight into the theme? F．Characters’ names might be repeated to make sure that you’ve heard them. G．You can also consider if the film has drawn any inspiration from other source material. 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Last year, a heavy blow struck my family. My father lost his job, and I, once an outgoing and confident student, began to lose 41 for my future. I kept myself away from friends, stopped taking part in after-school activities, and even my grades 42 sharply. School became a 43 place for me. I would sit alone during breaks, lost in negative thoughts. Teachers and classmates tried to comfort me, but their words simply 44 off my heart like water off a stone. I thought no one could 45 what I was going through. One day after class, my music teacher noticed my 46 and asked me to stay. Instead of giving me a long speech, she just handed me a pair of headphones and pressed play. The soft, warm music 47 began to flow. It was a gentle piano piece. The melody was calm, yet it carried a hidden strength. As I listened, I felt something 48 inside my chest. The tight feeling of pressure and sadness 49 slowly. For the first time in months, I didn’t feel 50 lonely. From then on, I started to listen to music whenever I felt down. Sometimes it was light pop; sometimes it was 51 classical works. Music didn’t erase my troubles, but it gave me the 52 to face them bravely. I gradually returned to my normal self. I began to 53 with my classmates again and worked harder on my lessons. I even joined the school music club, hoping to 54 my feelings through the melodies. Now I truly understand that music is more than just sounds. It is a silent companion that 55 us up when we fall, and lights our way when we feel lost. 41．(1分)A．pride B．hope C．sense D．patience 42．(1分)A．dropped B．grew C．worked D．lasted 43．(1分)A．pleasant B．familiar C．painful D．magical 44．(1分)A．jumped B．flew C．ran D．slid 45．(1分)A．accept B．understand C．forgive D．admire 46．(1分)A．silence B．kindness C．politeness D．weakness 47．(1分)A．gradually B．suddenly C．hardly D．frequently 48．(1分)A．relaxing B．shaking C．freezing D．worsening 49．(1分)A．faded B．spread C．remained D．appeared 50．(1分)A．even B．ever C．quite D．still 51．(1分)A．noisy B．lively C．touching D．boring 52．(1分)A．dream B．courage C．honor D．chance 53．(1分)A．compare B．agree C．communicate D．compete 54．(1分)A．express B．control C．hide D．gather 55．(1分)A．brings B．picks C．takes D．holds 四、语法填空 （本题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。​ The park was alive with life as the sun rose. Old Mr. Chen walked slowly along the path, his dog Max running ahead, stopping now and then to sniff at a flower or chase a butterfly. The air 56(1.5分) (smell) fresh, with the scent of grass and damp soil after the night’s rain.​ Near the lake, a group of children were laughing. They 57(1.5分) (feed) the ducks, throwing pieces of bread into the water. A little girl, about five years old, clapped her hands as a duck swam quickly to grab a piece. Her mother sat on a bench nearby, 58(1.5分) (watch) her with a smile.​ A young man was sitting under a big tree, playing 59(1.5分) guitar. His music was soft and pleasant, and several people had stopped to listen. A woman walked over and sat down next to him, asking if he 60(1.5分) (mind) her staying. He smiled and shook his head, then continued to play.​ By 9 o’clock, more people had arrived. Some were jogging, others were doing yoga on the grass. A vendor was selling hot drinks from a small cart, and the sound of his voice calling out, “Hot tea! Coffee!” mixed with the other sounds of the park.​ It was a simple morning, but it was full 61(1.5分) happiness. Everyone there was enjoying the moment, 62(1.5分) (not worry) about work or problems. Sometimes, it’s the small, ordinary things 63(1.5分) make life so beautiful.​ Mr. Chen sat down on a bench, Max lying at his feet. He closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He felt grateful 64(1.5分) this peaceful start to the day.

Nothing made me happier than seeing their eyes light up during these interactive and engaging activities. So I had never imagined that waste items would become our most valuable teaching resources, and that shortage would become the source of our greatest inspiration. Last year, our school was hit by severe budget cuts, which meant many resources for science activities were no longer available. As a teacher who had always relied on vivid experiments to make science fun, I felt extremely frustrated and discouraged. How could I keep my students interested and engaged without the well-equipped lab and expensive materials that had served us so well before? I was at a loss, worrying that my science classes would become boring and ineffective, and that my students would lose their passion for exploring the world through experiments. Just as I was struggling with this problem, my students surprised me in the most unexpected way. When we started our unit on simple machines, something amazing happened. Jamie, a ten-year-old boy full of curiosity, brought in some old bicycle parts from his garage. He said they could be used to make wheels and levers (控制杆). Following his example, Maya shared cardboard boxes that her family had kept for later use. One by one, other students also brought in recycled items: plastic bottles, string, used cans, and even small pieces of wood. By the end of the week, we had transformed the corner of our classroom into an entire “invention lab” using recycled materials and student contributions. At first, I doubted whether these simple, everyday objects could support meaningful learning. However, it turned out the learning that happened in that makeshift (临时的) lab exceeded anything we had accomplished with expensive commercial kits. 注意：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。 In this makeshift lab, students worked with amazing enthusiasm. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By the end of the semester, we held a small exhibition for other classes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 高中英语单元测试 —— Unit 1 Life Choices（适中版02）（解析版） 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ 一、听力选择题 1．（本题1.5分）Who might the woman be?

C．To share your achievements. 18．(1.5分)Why does Forbes suggest keeping a scorecard? A．To record your progress. B．To compare with your partner.

C．Unconcerned. 20．(1.5分)What is helpful in achieving difficult goals according to Victor? A．Gaining social support. B．Focusing on broad goals. C．Keeping the goals private. 【答案】17．B 18．A 19．B 20．A 【原文】 To stay committed to your goals, try these strategies, Forbes, a Stanford professor, suggests starting with small, manageable habits. For example, practice an instrument for 30 seconds a day, or wash your hands before meals. These actions, though small, are more effective than goals like eating healthy food or getting fit, which can be hard to achieve without specific steps. Another tip is to track your progress with a Scorecard. This could mean recording how far you run or how much time you spend studying a language. Besides, he advises keeping your goals to yourself. Announcing them implies a sense of completion. It might mean that you’re less likely to follow through. However, Victor, a New York University professor, opposed that. He thought you should tell your friends or family members. He added that having social support helps people achieve difficult goals. You could ask friends to remind you when you achieve a goal, you should throw a party to celebrate it with them. 二、阅读理解 （本题7.5分）Here are some wonderful high school programs abroad.

But faced with these seemingly straightforward questions, I was speechless. Amid the routine work and technical details, I had lost sight of how my work fitted in with the research hypothesis and the overall system we were investigating. This wasn’t the first time I had lost track of my research goals. In earlier endeavors, including my master’s degree and research internships, I had focused on running as many experiments, performing as many meta-analyses, and generating as many results as I could. I welcomed details and grew accustomed to getting lost in them. When I felt lost, I instead assumed my problem was lack of technical expertise. But my PhD supervisor’s comment helped me realize my detail-loving approach alone would no longer cut it. I realized that one solution might be as simple as slowing down a bit. I started taking periodic breaks from running experiments to reflect on the “so what” of the studies I was conducting. I also learned tremendously from two postdocs, who helped me balance top-down and bottom-up thinking by connecting experiment planning and data analysis with overall study objective. They helped me develop the habit of always asking ahead of time how a specific experiment or analysis would help answer the hypothesis. This led to more structured, focused thinking about subsequent steps. With time, I began to complement my love of details with an ability to evaluate the how and why of research tasks and the relevance of my work beyond the experiments, data, and analyses. I was still getting lost in the details, but I was now able to understand why. I have realized that big-picture thinking is one of the many adaptable, universal skills one can get from a PhD．And I’m happy my mentors (导师) and managers pushed me to develop it. 24．(2.5分)What used to be the author’s primary issue during the research? A．Lack of technical expertise. B．Losing sight of the research goals. C．Difficulty in extracting genomic DNA． D．Failing to answer the supervisor’s questions. 25．(2.5分)What’s the function of paragraph 2? A．To provide more examples. B．To state the author’s good work habits. C．To offer a solution to the author’s issue. D．To show the author’s educational background. 26．(2.5分)What strategy did the author use to approach his problem? A．Focusing on details more carefully. B．Increasing the number of experiments. C．Speeding up the experimental process. D．Taking breaks to engage in self-reflection. 27．(2.5分)What does the author want to tell us from his own experiences? A．Mentors are essential for providing technical expertise. B．Top-down thinking is better for research than bottom-up thinking. C．Big-picture thinking helps you stay focused on the overall objective. D．Self-reflection is important when you encounter setbacks in research. 【答案】24．B 25．A 26．D 27．C 【导语】文章讲述了作者在研究中曾因迷失目标而苦恼，通过放慢节奏、反思研究意义和向导师学习，培养了宏观思考能力，最终实现了目标。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“Amid the routine work and technical details, I had lost sight of how my work fitted in with the research hypothesis and the overall system we were investigating.(在日常工作和技术细节中，我忽略了我的工作如何与研究假设和我们正在调查的整体系统相吻合。)”以及第二段中的“This wasn’t the first time I had lost track of my research goals.(这不是我第一次失去对研究目标的追踪。)”可知，作者过去在研究中的主要问题是忽略了研究目标。 25．推理判断题。根据第二段中的“In earlier endeavors, including my master's degree and research internships, I had focused on running as many experiments, performing as many meta-analyses, and generating as many results as I could.(在之前的努力中，包括我的硕士学位和研究实习，我专注于进行尽可能多的实验，进行尽可能多的荟萃分析，并产生尽可能多的结果。)”可知，第二段是对第一段所提到的问题提供更多的例子来加以说明，进一步论证作者确实经常迷失在细节中而忽略研究目标。 26．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I realized that one solution might be as simple as slowing down a bit. I started taking periodic breaks from running experiments to reflect on the ‘so what’ of the studies I was conducting.(我意识到，一个解决方案可能就是稍微放慢节奏。我开始定期暂停实验，停下来思考自己所做研究的实际意义。)”可知，作者通过定期休息来进行自我反思。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“I have realized that big-picture thinking is one of the many adaptable, universal skills one can get from a PhD.(我已经意识到，大局观思维是从博士学位中可以获得的许多适应性强的、通用的技能之一。)”以及全文内容可知，作者通过自己的亲身经历告诉我们：大局观思维有助于你始终聚焦于整体目标，而不是迷失在细节中。 （本题10分）People at your age, like classmates, are peers. When they influence your decisions or actions, it’s called peer pressure — something all of us have faced and must deal with at some point in our life. The need to follow the crowd and do what the majority are doing forces us to take up activities which we wouldn’t otherwise engage in. Recent studies show peer pressure can bring an upside: it makes you reflect on your actions and improve. Observing others working hard to reach their goals will definitely encourage you to make a great effort to achieve something positive. For example, when a teen knows that his teammates are practicing hard to become better players, it will directly affect his own performance. He will put in twice the time and energy to raise the level of his game and ensure he has a place on the team. Positive peer groups also help you develop healthy habits that shape your personality and future. If friends read regularly or exercise daily, you may adopt these habits too, with peer pressure turning into motivation. However, just as everything has two sides, peer pressure also has negatives. It can lower self-confidence; some kids give in to fit in, avoid mockery (嘲笑), or satisfy curiosity, abandoning good judgment for “everyone’s doing it.” It may also distance you from loved ones, making teens feel misunderstood and drawn to bad company. Peer pressure affects many areas of life, from clothes to music. It can be hard to resist, forcing you into discomfort. Thus, recognizing and choosing positive peer influences for healthy, happy experiences is a lifelong task. 28．(2.5分)What does the underlined word “upside” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A．Risk B．Advantage C．Difficulty D．Change 29．(2.5分)Which of the following is a result of positive peer pressure? A．A student starts reading often because his friends do. B．A teen smokes to avoid being laughed at by peers. C．A child skips homework to play with classmates. D．A teenager keeps secrets from parents to fit in. 30．(2.5分)Why do some kids give in to negative peer pressure? A．To learn from others’ good habits B．To keep up with the crowd and avoid being mocked C．To double their effort in team training D．To develop a lifelong good habit 31．(2.5分)What is the author’s suggestion towards peer pressure? A．Ignore all peer influences in daily life B．Give in to peer pressure to fit in with the group C．Recognize and choose positive peer influences D．Stay away from all peers to avoid pressure 【答案】28．B 29．A 30．B 31．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了同伴压力的概念、其带来的积极和消极影响，以及作者对于应对同伴压力的建议。 【详解】28．词句猜测题。根据第二段中划线词后文“it makes you reflect on your actions and improve. Observing others working hard to reach their goals will definitely encourage you to make a great effort to achieve something positive. (它会让你反思自己的行为并加以改进。看到别人为了实现目标而努力奋斗，肯定会激励你付出巨大的努力去达成一些积极的事情)”以及“Positive peer groups also help you develop healthy habits that shape your personality and future. (积极的同伴群体也有助于你养成健康的习惯，塑造你的个性和未来)”可知，同伴压力能带来积极的结果，因此，划线词“upside”应为“优点，好处”之意，与“Advantage”意思相近。故选B项。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段中“If friends read regularly or exercise daily, you may adopt these habits too, with peer pressure turning into motivation. (如果朋友们经常阅读或每天锻炼，你也会养成这些习惯，同伴压力变成了动力)”可知，一个学生因为朋友经常阅读而开始经常阅读是积极同伴压力的结果。故选A项。 30．细节理解题。根据第三段中“It can lower self-confidence; some kids give in to fit in, avoid mockery (嘲笑), or satisfy curiosity, abandoning good judgment for “everyone’s doing it.” (它会降低自信心；有些孩子为了融入群体、避免嘲笑或满足好奇心而屈服，为了“大家都在做”而放弃良好的判断力)”可知，有些孩子屈服于消极的同伴压力是为了融入群体，避免被嘲笑。故选B项。 31．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Thus, recognizing and choosing positive peer influences for healthy, happy experiences is a lifelong task. (因此，为了健康、快乐的体验，识别和选择积极的同伴影响是一项终身任务)”可知，作者对于同伴压力的建议是识别并选择积极的同伴影响。故选C项。 （本题10分）Social conflicts, from policy debates to family disagreements, can easily develop into angry words and personal attacks. Such heated conflicts, however, seldom settle disagreements and can lead to worse results. A better approach to dealing with interpersonal disagreements is to apply features of wisdom, like humility (谦虚), diverse viewpoints and open-mindedness. But applying these elements of wisdom can be difficult, especially during conflicts. The trick, according to research published in the journal Psychological Science, is to train yourself in advance to reason about interpersonal conflicts in a wiser manner. “People typically fail to reason wisely when facing social conflicts so we designed a way to help them,” said Igor Grossmann, director of the Wisdom and Culture Lab at the University of Waterloo, Canada. “Our basic idea is to train people to see situations from a more objective, third-person angle (角度). This approach enables people to recognize the limitations of their knowledge and the different ways the conflict may lead to, and consider and balance different viewpoints.” According to the researchers, by changing the angle from the first person to the third person, a person is able to get a better understanding of his or her own knowledge and enjoy different views. To test their assumption (假设), the researchers conducted two field experiments. Grossmann said, “Our research showed the effectiveness of the third- person diary writing for a change in wisdom compared to the first-person diary reflection, and indicated that the third- person self-reflection led to gradual change in wise reasoning about personally challenging interactions.” The data suggest that this increase in wise reasoning happened because the third-person self-reflection broadened people’s typically narrow self-focus. This research provides the evidence for training wise reasoning in daily life when people are dealing with challenging interactions. 32．(2.5分)Why is it significant to settle the social conflicts? A．Conflicts may lead to failure. B．Conflicts can result in a worse situation. C．Conflicts can avoid one’s self-reflection. D．Conflicts can push people to think differently. 33．(2.5分)What can help to reduce the conflicts according to the author? A．Self-awareness. B．Agreed standard. C．Broad viewpoints. D．Firm determination. 34．(2.5分)What can we learn from Grossmann’s findings? A．Social conflicts can increase people’s reasoning ability. B．First-person reflection improves the problem-solving skills. C．Self-focus is helpful in dealing with interpersonal disagreements. D．Third-person diary reflection can increase the ability to solve conflicts. 35．(2.5分)What can be a suitable title for the passage? A．Reflection Matters in Decreasing Disagreements B．Social Conflicts Do Great Harm to Interpersonal Relationships C．The Wisdom of Problem-solving Lies in Challenges D．Training in Wise Reasoning Helps to Cope with Social Conflicts 【答案】32．B 33．C 34．D 35．D 【导语】主要介绍社交冲突易引发不良后果，研究表明以第三人称视角反思能培养理智思维、化解矛盾。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Such heated conflicts, however, seldom settle disagreements and can lead to worse results.(然而这类激烈的冲突几乎无法解决分歧，还会引发更糟糕的后果。)”可知，激烈的社会冲突会让局势变得更加糟糕。 33．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“A better approach to dealing with interpersonal disagreements is to apply features of wisdom, like humility (谦虚), diverse viewpoints and open-mindedness. (处理人际分歧更好的办法是运用智慧，比如保持谦虚、拥有多元视角和豁达心态。)”可知，拥有广泛多元的视角有助于化解冲突。 34．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Grossmann said, “Our research showed the effectiveness of the third- person diary writing for a change in wisdom compared to the first-person diary reflection, and indicated that the third- person self-reflection led to gradual change in wise reasoning about personally challenging interactions.”(格罗斯曼表示：“我们的研究表明，相较于第一人称日记反思，第三人称日记写作在提升智慧方面效果更佳，同时也证实，以第三人称进行自我反思，能让人在面对人际难题时，其理性思辨能力逐步得到改善。”)”可知，第三人称日记反思可以提升人们化解冲突的能力。 35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“The trick, according to research published in the journal Psychological Science, is to train yourself in advance to reason about interpersonal conflicts in a wiser manner.(发表在《心理科学》期刊上的研究指出，应对冲突的诀窍是提前训练自己，用更理智的方式看待人际矛盾。)”可知，文章主要围绕训练理智思考能力有助于应对社交冲突展开论述，所以“Training in Wise Reasoning Helps to Cope with Social Conflicts(智慧思辨训练有助于应对社交冲突)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 （本题12.5分）Watching a film critically is a skill worth developing because it helps you learn what makes a film good according to your own tastes. What makes the early films of a director great fun while the later ones a total mess? 36(2.5分) Here, we take a look at how you can watch films more critically. Give the film your undivided attention at least once. Filmmakers accept that they won’t always have their audience’s undivided attention. Significant plot points will be highlighted with incidental music so that you focus. 37(2.5分) Try, just once, to watch the film as they intended. Consider the themes the film explored. Picking out the themes and assessing how the film treats them is a central point of film criticism. It might be an uncomfortable allegory (讽喻). 38(2.5分) For instance, The Lion King drew on the plot of Hamlet. Does it breathe new life into the story and take it in an interesting direction? Analyze sound, lighting and production. You may only notice sound if the levels are all wrong and the incidental music drowns out the dialog. Lighting, similarly, you may only notice if everything is so bright that it looks like the action is taking place in a dentist’s office. 39(2.5分) You might consider how the choice of costume brightens a character. 40(2.5分) It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that there is something that is objectively good or bad. But if you find yourself loving a film that other people seem to dislike, that isn’t necessarily a sign that there’s something wrong with your taste. It could be that a film’s sense of humor agrees with your own, or that a film reflects your life experiences. A．Don’t forget that it’s all subjective. B．Think about why you did or didn’t enjoy it. C．Try to train yourself to see these aspects of a film every time. D．Why do some films excite people while others send people to sleep? E．How was the film constructed to provide a new insight into the theme? F．Characters’ names might be repeated to make sure that you’ve heard them. G．You can also consider if the film has drawn any inspiration from other source material. 【答案】36．D 37．F 38．G 39．C 40．A 【导语】本文是说明文。主要讲述了如何更好地欣赏电影。 【详解】36．根据前文“What makes the early films of a director great fun while the later ones a total mess?(是什么让一个导演的早期电影非常有趣，而后来的电影却一团糟？)”可知，空前是问句，后文要么是对本句的回答，要么继续提问，形成排比句，所以D项“Why do some films excite people while others send people to sleep?(为什么有些电影让人兴奋，而有些电影让人昏昏欲睡？)”符合前文主题，都是在提问电影为什么有好有坏。故选D项。 37．根据前文“Give the film your undivided attention at least once. Filmmakers accept that they won’t always have their audience’s undivided attention. Significant plot points will be highlighted with incidental music so that you focus.(至少一次专心致志地看这部电影。电影制作人承认，他们并不总是能吸引观众的注意力。关键剧情节点会搭配配乐加以烘托，以此让观众集中注意力。)”可知，此处主要讲述了电影制作人用各种方法去吸引观众的注意力，所以F项“Characters’ names might be repeated to make sure that you’ve heard them.(角色的名字可能会被重复，以确保你听到了他们的名字)”符合此处主题，都是吸引观众的注意力的方法。故选F项。 38．根据前文“Consider the themes the film explored. Picking out the themes and assessing how the film treats them is a central point of film criticism. It might be an uncomfortable allegory (讽喻).(想想这部电影探讨的主题。挑选出电影的主题并评估影片如何处理这些主题是影评的核心。这可能是一个令人不舒服的讽喻)”可知，本段讲述电影如何表达主题，根据后文“For instance, The Lion King drew on the plot of Hamlet. Does it breathe new life into the story and take it in an interesting direction?(例如，《狮子王》借鉴了《哈姆雷特》情节。它是否为故事注入了新的活力，并把它带向一个有趣的方向？)”可知，后文举例，讲述了主题借鉴其他作品，所以G项“You can also consider if the film has drawn any inspiration from other source material.(你也可以考虑这部电影是否从其他材料中获得了灵感)”符合本段主题，后文是对此句的举例。故选G项。 39．根据前文“Analyze sound, lighting and production. You may only notice sound if the levels are all wrong and the incidental music drowns out the dialog. Lighting, similarly, you may only notice if everything is so bright that it looks like the action is taking place in a dentist’s office.(分析音响、灯光及制作效果。只有当音量严重失调或配乐盖过对白时，你才会注意到音响问题；同理，只有当灯光亮如牙科诊所时，你才会意识到布光的存在)”可知，C项“Try to train yourself to see these aspects of a film every time.(试着训练自己每次都能看到电影的这些方面)”可知，本句中“这些方面”指的就是音响、灯光及制作效果，是对前文的总结，符合文意。故选C项。 40．设空位于段首，为本段中心句，根据后文“It’s easy to fall into the trap of thinking that there is something that is objectively good or bad. But if you find yourself loving a film that other people seem to dislike, that isn’t necessarily a sign that there’s something wrong with your taste. It could be that a film’s sense of humor agrees with your own, or that a film reflects your life experiences.(我们很容易陷入这样的思维陷阱，认为客观存在着好坏之分。但是，如果你发现自己喜欢一部别人似乎不喜欢的电影，这并不一定表明你的品味有问题。它可能是一部电影的幽默感与你自己的幽默感一致，或者一部电影反映了你的生活经历)”可知，本段主要讲述，电影的好坏是主观的印象而不是客观的，所以A项“Don’t forget that it’s all subjective.(别忘了这都是主观的)”符合本段主题。故选A项。 三、完形填空 （本题15分）Last year, a heavy blow struck my family. My father lost his job, and I, once an outgoing and confident student, began to lose 41 for my future. I kept myself away from friends, stopped taking part in after-school activities, and even my grades 42 sharply. School became a 43 place for me. I would sit alone during breaks, lost in negative thoughts. Teachers and classmates tried to comfort me, but their words simply 44 off my heart like water off a stone. I thought no one could 45 what I was going through. One day after class, my music teacher noticed my 46 and asked me to stay. Instead of giving me a long speech, she just handed me a pair of headphones and pressed play. The soft, warm music 47 began to flow. It was a gentle piano piece. The melody was calm, yet it carried a hidden strength. As I listened, I felt something 48 inside my chest. The tight feeling of pressure and sadness 49 slowly. For the first time in months, I didn’t feel 50 lonely. From then on, I started to listen to music whenever I felt down. Sometimes it was light pop; sometimes it was 51 classical works. Music didn’t erase my troubles, but it gave me the 52 to face them bravely. I gradually returned to my normal self. I began to 53 with my classmates again and worked harder on my lessons. I even joined the school music club, hoping to 54 my feelings through the melodies. Now I truly understand that music is more than just sounds. It is a silent companion that 55 us up when we fall, and lights our way when we feel lost. 41．(1分)A．pride B．hope C．sense D．patience 42．(1分)A．dropped B．grew C．worked D．lasted 43．(1分)A．pleasant B．familiar C．painful D．magical 44．(1分)A．jumped B．flew C．ran D．slid 45．(1分)A．accept B．understand C．forgive D．admire 46．(1分)A．silence B．kindness C．politeness D．weakness 47．(1分)A．gradually B．suddenly C．hardly D．frequently 48．(1分)A．relaxing B．shaking C．freezing D．worsening 49．(1分)A．faded B．spread C．remained D．appeared 50．(1分)A．even B．ever C．quite D．still 51．(1分)A．noisy B．lively C．touching D．boring 52．(1分)A．dream B．courage C．honor D．chance 53．(1分)A．compare B．agree C．communicate D．compete 54．(1分)A．express B．control C．hide D．gather 55．(1分)A．brings B．picks C．takes D．holds 【答案】 41．B 42．A 43．C 44．D 45．B 46．A 47．A 48．A 49．A 50．C 51．C 52．B 53．C 54．A 55．B 【导语】文章讲述了父亲失业使家中遭受重创，作者陷入消沉封闭自我，音乐老师用钢琴曲安抚作者情绪，帮助作者走出阴霾、重拾积极生活状态的故事。 【详解】41．考查名词。句意：父亲丢了工作，曾经开朗自信的我，开始对未来失去希望。A. pride骄傲；B. hope希望；C. sense感觉；D. patience耐心。根据上文“a heavy blow struck my family.

Old Mr. Chen walked slowly along the path, his dog Max running ahead, stopping now and then to sniff at a flower or chase a butterfly. The air 56(1.5分) (smell) fresh, with the scent of grass and damp soil after the night’s rain.​ Near the lake, a group of children were laughing. They 57(1.5分) (feed) the ducks, throwing pieces of bread into the water. A little girl, about five years old, clapped her hands as a duck swam quickly to grab a piece. Her mother sat on a bench nearby, 58(1.5分) (watch) her with a smile.​ A young man was sitting under a big tree, playing 59(1.5分) guitar. His music was soft and pleasant, and several people had stopped to listen. A woman walked over and sat down next to him, asking if he 60(1.5分) (mind) her staying. He smiled and shook his head, then continued to play.​ By 9 o’clock, more people had arrived. Some were jogging, others were doing yoga on the grass.

Nothing made me happier than seeing their eyes light up during these interactive and engaging activities. So I had never imagined that waste items would become our most valuable teaching resources, and that shortage would become the source of our greatest inspiration. Last year, our school was hit by severe budget cuts, which meant many resources for science activities were no longer available. As a teacher who had always relied on vivid experiments to make science fun, I felt extremely frustrated and discouraged. How could I keep my students interested and engaged without the well-equipped lab and expensive materials that had served us so well before? I was at a loss, worrying that my science classes would become boring and ineffective, and that my students would lose their passion for exploring the world through experiments. Just as I was struggling with this problem, my students surprised me in the most unexpected way. When we started our unit on simple machines, something amazing happened. Jamie, a ten-year-old boy full of curiosity, brought in some old bicycle parts from his garage. He said they could be used to make wheels and levers (控制杆). Following his example, Maya shared cardboard boxes that her family had kept for later use. One by one, other students also brought in recycled items: plastic bottles, string, used cans, and even small pieces of wood. By the end of the week, we had transformed the corner of our classroom into an entire “invention lab” using recycled materials and student contributions. At first, I doubted whether these simple, everyday objects could support meaningful learning. However, it turned out the learning that happened in that makeshift (临时的) lab exceeded anything we had accomplished with expensive commercial kits. 注意：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。 In this makeshift lab, students worked with amazing enthusiasm. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ By the end of the semester, we held a small exhibition for other classes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】       In this makeshift lab, students worked with amazing enthusiasm. Groups gathered around desks piled high with plastic bottles, strings, cardboard boxes, and various waste items. Instead of following strict instructions from expensive commercial kits, they created, tested, and improved their own simple machines. Some used bicycle chains to build a pulley system, while others cut plastic bottles to create a water wheel. When their simple machine successfully lifted a small weight, cheers erupted. Through hands-on creation and repeated attempts, they developed a much deeper understanding of scientific principles. Their eyes shone with confidence and pride, which I had rarely seen before. By the end of the semester, we held a small exhibition for other classes. My students proudly showed off their creations, explaining how they used recycled materials to make something useful. It soon became a hit, inspiring many other classes to collect recycled materials for their own creative activities. The principal visited our classroom and was amazed by what we had accomplished. That day, I learned something no teacher training workshop had ever taught me: constraints don’t kill creativity — they set it free. When we involve students as partners in problem-solving, we tap into their creativity and resourcefulness while building genuine investment in their learning. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述身为科学老师的作者向来依靠精密器材开展趣味实验。学校预算缩减后实验物资紧缺，作者倍感苦恼。不料学生们主动带来各类废旧物品，合力打造出简易创意实验室。这些废旧材料带来的学习效果，远超以往昂贵的专业实验器材。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可以预测续写这段主要内容：学生们利用废旧物品自主制作简易机械，动手实践中深入领悟科学原理，满怀成就感。 ②由第二段首句内容可以预测续写这段主要内容：班级举办废品创意作品展广受好评，作者领悟到困境反而能激发学生的创造力。 2.续写线索：利用废旧物品创作——深入领悟科学原理——满怀成就感——创意作品展广受好评——作者满怀感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①聚集：gather/assemble ②解释：explain/interpret ③鼓舞：inspire/motivate/encourage 情绪类 ①自豪地：proudly/with pride ②惊讶的：amazed/surprised/astonished 【点睛】[高分句型1] Their eyes shone with confidence and pride, which I had rarely seen before.（运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句） [高分句型2] The principal visited our classroom and was amazed by what we had accomplished.（运用了what引导的宾语从句） 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 2 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
