A teacher read out numbers — 74,470, 70,809, 98,402 — and Stevenson added them in her head. For each question, she closed her eyes, and then the fingers of her right hand began to move. She answered most of the problems correctly. The key to her success was an ancient technology called the abacus (算盘). Stevenson used a practice called “mental abacus”, imagining the abacus in her mind and then using her fingers to work out the problems. From watching Stevenson, I knew that gaining skill at the abacus was more than a matter of counting beads (珠子), so I decided to sign up for an abacus course with my two daughters to see if we could also improve our math skills. I was one of the many who had some math doubts and I felt scared. My usual solution was escape, and if I had to calculate something like a percentage change, I would go online. Then after a few abacus classes and a good amount of practice, math seemed a little less scary. I didn’t become Euclid, the founder of geometry (几何学). But the practice brought my fears down. This is a time-tested power of the abacus. Confidence grows easily in the device (设备), and abacus students are less likely to be nervous about an upcoming math test. Part of the reason, it seems, is that practice and results appear to move in step. My kids gained much as well. My youngest daughter could work out those difficult math problems, while my older child brought her abacus to school to show it to her classmates and teacher. These were just small successes for them, but that was how they finally believed in themselves. 4. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To prove the difficulty of math. B. To introduce the topic of the abacus. C. To show the cleverness of Stevenson. D. To compare the author with Stevenson. 5. What do we know about the author from paragraph 3? A. He was weak in math. B. He was good at computers. C. He thought of math as useful. D. He had a close relationship with kids. 6. What does the author realize from his learning experience? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Faith can move mountains. 7. What did the author’s kids both gain from abacus learning? A. Interest in abacus. B. Working skills. C. Secrets to success. D. Self-confidence. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者目睹了珠心算高手的表现后，亲身带着女儿学习算盘，在学习的过程中克服了对数学的恐惧，建立了自信。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A few years ago, I stood in a small classroom just outside of New York City, watching a high schooler named Serena Stevenson answer math questions. A teacher read out numbers — 74,470, 70,809, 98,402 — and Stevenson added them in her head. For each question, she closed her eyes, and then the fingers of her right hand began to move. She answered most of the problems correctly.(几年前，我站在纽约市郊的一间小教室里，看着一位名叫塞雷娜·史蒂文森的高中生解答数学题。老师念出一串数字——74470、70809、98402，史蒂文森在脑子里把数字加起来。每一道题，她都会闭上眼睛，随后右手手指开始动起来。她答对了大多数题目)”以及第二段“The key to her success was an ancient technology called the abacus (算盘).(她成功的关键是一项古老的技术——算盘)”可知，第一段描述了一名高中生令人惊叹的心算能力，紧接着第二段揭示了她成功的秘诀是“算盘”（abacus）。因此，第一段的作用是通过一个生动的事例来引出本文的核心话题——算盘。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I was one of the many who had some math doubts and I felt scared. My usual solution was escape, and if I had to calculate something like a percentage change, I would go online.(我属于对数学心存疑惑的人，我对数学感到害怕。我的常规解决办法就是逃避，如果我需要计算类似百分比变化这类问题，我都会上网去算)”可知，作者数学不好，不擅长数学计算。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Then after a few abacus classes and a good amount of practice, math seemed a little less scary....Part of the reason, it seems, is that practice and results appear to move in step.(在上了几节算盘课，进行了大量练习之后，数学似乎没那么可怕了……部分原因似乎在于，练习和成果是同频的)”可知，作者通过自身学习经历意识到，坚持练习就能够改善能力、获得成果，也就是“熟能生巧”的道理。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“These were just small successes for them, but that was how they finally believed in themselves.(这些对她们来说只是小小的成功，但正是这些小成功让她们最终相信了自己)”可知，作者的两个女儿都从学习算盘的过程中收获了自信。 C Does studying philosophy (哲学) really make people better thinkers? To test this claim, as researchers, we looked at data from more than 600,000 US college graduates, compared philosophy students with those in every other field, and published our findings in the Journal of the American Philosophical Association. The results were clear. By the end of their senior year, philosophy students did much better than all other students on tests of language and logical reasoning (逻辑推理). They also reported stronger virtues, including curiosity and open-mindedness. Why does philosophy have such an effect? Different from many fields that focus on specific knowledge, philosophy is best understood as a method of research. It asks questions about human life and the universe and then tests possible answers. Doing philosophy means building logical reasoning, recognizing hidden assumptions (假设), and arriving at their often surprising conclusions. These habits of mind enable students to think more clearly and carefully from different aspects. This benefit matters far beyond the classroom. At a time when public trust in higher education is at historic lows and AI is reshaping the workplace, the need for critical thinking has never been greater. AI can generate (生成) information quickly, but it cannot decide what is true or meaningful. If we humans don’t examine AI-generated information, our life is at risk. Our research does not claim that philosophy alone guarantees wisdom or moral virtue. Intellectual (智力上的) skills can be used for selfish purposes as well as for justice. But the evidence showed that studying philosophy helps us develop habits of thought that are measurable and lasting. It gives students the tools to question assumptions, face uncertainty, and make thoughtful choices in an ever-changing world. In short, philosophy is not beyond us — it is a necessity. It trains the mind, strengthens judgment, and prepares people to meet future challenges with courage. 8. How did the researchers carry out the study? A. By comparing data of graduates. B. By reviewing earlier studies. C. By interviewing philosophy students. D. By analyzing graduates’ behavior. 9. What makes philosophy students better thinkers, according to Paragraph 3? A. Their critical thinking skills. B. Their curiosity for mysteries. C. Their anxiety for knowledge. D. Their language and logical training. 10. Why does philosophy matter in today’s world? A. It is changing the workplace worldwide. B. It helps rebuild public trust in higher education. C. It provides us with wisdom and a sense of justice. D. It helps us get better prepared for the challenging reality. 11. What can we infer from the text? A. Philosophy matters more than AI in modern society. B. Philosophy students are the smartest among graduates. C. We need to study some philosophy to face the uncertain future. D. Philosophy students adapt well to the ever-changing workplace. 【答案】8. A 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】文章通过研究数据表明，学习哲学能提高人的语言和逻辑推理能力，培养批判性思维等思维习惯，这种能力在当今AI时代尤为重要。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“we looked at data from more than 600,000 US college graduates, compared philosophy students with those in every other field (我们查看了超过60万名美国大学毕业生的数据，将哲学专业学生与其他所有领域的学生进行了比较)”可知，研究人员通过比较毕业生的数据来开展研究。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Doing philosophy means building logical reasoning, recognizing hidden assumptions, and arriving at their often surprising conclusions. These habits of mind enable students to think more clearly and carefully from different aspects. (做哲学意味着建立逻辑推理，识别隐藏的假设，并得出往往令人惊讶的结论。这些思维习惯使学生能够从不同方面更清晰、更仔细地思考。)”可知，哲学学生成为更好思考者的原因是他们的批判性思维技能。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“At a time when public trust in higher education is at historic lows and AI is reshaping the workplace, the need for critical thinking has never been greater. AI can generate information quickly, but it cannot decide what is true or meaningful. If we humans don‘t examine AI-generated information, our life is at risk. (在公众对高等教育的信任处于历史低点、人工智能正在重塑工作场所的时候，对批判性思维的需求从未如此迫切。人工智能可以快速生成信息，但它无法决定什么是真实或有意义的。如果我们人类不检查人工智能生成的信息，我们的生活就处于危险之中。)”以及第六段中“It trains the mind, strengthens judgment, and prepares people to meet future challenges with courage. (它训练思维，增强判断力，并让人们准备好以勇气迎接未来的挑战。)”可知，哲学在当今世界很重要，因为它帮助我们更好地为充满挑战的现实做准备。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In short, philosophy is not beyond us — it is a necessity. It trains the mind, strengthens judgment, and prepares people to meet future challenges with courage.( 简而言之，哲学并非遥不可及——它是必需品。它训练思维，增强判断力，并让人们准备好以勇气迎接未来的挑战。)”可知，哲学能培养思维、增强判断力，让人为未来的挑战做好准备，因此我们可以推断出需要学习一些哲学来面对不确定的未来。 D Throughout history, trees have played an important role in keeping the balance of nature. They take in CO₂ and turn it into oxygen. But one problem with this traditional way is that the CO₂ stored in trees can be let out back into the air when the trees die. However, the discovery of certain trees in Kenya adds a new dimension to this natural process. These trees, also found in several other countries, have been observed to turn CO₂ into calcium oxalate (草酸钙). Then bacteria in the trees and the soil around them turn it further into calcium carbonate (碳酸钙), a main part of limestone (石灰岩)and chalk. The special process makes sure that the CO2 is kept in solid form for much longer, even after the tree’s life ends. This finding was emphasized by Mike Rowley from the University of Zurich at the Goldschmidt Conference. While the scientific community is optimistic about these findings, several challenges remain. The main concern is determining the exact amount of CO2 that these trees can transform throughout their lifetime. Without this reliable data, it is hard to judge the full effect of this method globally. Understanding the ecological balance and protecting biodiversity (生物多样性) are important before worldwide planting of these trees. Cooperative research efforts are needed to explore these aspects and develop a good strategy for using these trees as a natural solution to climate change. This discovery in Kenya invites us to reconsider the power of natural processes in dealing with environmental problems. While technological answers to climate change are significant, combining natural methods offers another way. The special ability of these trees gives us a hopeful method for exploration. The journey to fighting climate change is hard. As we dig deeper into understanding natural phenomena like the Kenyan trees, we must ask ourselves: How can we make the best of the power of nature to create a long-lasting future for generations to come? 12. What is special about the trees found in Kenya? A. They help turn CO2 into solid state. B. They can take in more CO2. C. They can let out oxygen quickly. D. They live peacefully with bacteria. 13. Why is the reliable data on CO2 transformation of the trees important? A. To grow more trees in Kenya quickly. B. To carry out more cooperative researches. C. To measure the global effect of the CO2 transformation. D. To keep the ecological balance and increase biodiversity. 14. What does the author try to explore in the last two paragraphs? A. The method of green development. B. The future of scientific methods. C. The danger of global climate change. D. The role of nature in climate solutions. 15. What does the passage tell us? A. Fighting climate change is hard. B. Trees in Kenya store carbon naturally. C. Scientists get new progress in CO₂ studies. D. Tree planting is a key to ecological balance. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. D 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了肯尼亚发现一类树木，可将二氧化碳转化为固体长久封存。虽仍有难题待研究，但该发现让人们重新思考利用自然力量应对气候变化。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The special process makes sure that the CO2 is kept in solid form for much longer, even after the tree’s life ends.(这种特殊过程确保二氧化碳在树木生命结束后仍能以固态形式长期保存)”可知，肯尼亚发现的树木的特别之处在于它们能将二氧化碳转化为固态保存。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Without this reliable data, it is hard to judge the full effect of this method globally.(没有这些可靠数据，很难判断这种方法在全球的全部效果)”可知，这些数据对于衡量二氧化碳转化的全球影响非常重要。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“This discovery in Kenya invites us to reconsider the power of natural processes in dealing with environmental problems.(这一在肯尼亚的发现促使我们重新思考自然过程在应对环境问题中的力量)”以及第五段“How can we make the best of the power of nature to create a long-lasting future for generations to come?(我们如何善用自然的力量，为子孙后代创造一个持久的未来？)”可知，作者在最后两段主要探讨了自然力量在应对气候变化等环境问题中发挥的作用。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“However, the discovery of certain trees in Kenya adds a new dimension to this natural process. These trees, also found in several other countries, have been observed to turn CO₂ into calcium oxalate (草酸钙).(然而，肯尼亚发现的某些树木为这一自然过程增添了新的维度。这些树木在多个国家也已被观察到能够将二氧化碳转化为草酸钙)”以及文章主要介绍在肯尼亚发现的某些树木能够将二氧化碳转化为固态形式长期储存，并探讨了这一自然过程对解决气候变化的积极意义。B项“肯尼亚的树木自然地储存碳”最能概括文章的核心内容。 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 Happy Person’s Retreat (退让) Principle Many people regard giving in to conflicts as weakness. Yet psychologists put forward a meaningful concept: the Happy Person’s Retreat Principle. ____16____ It is a wise and smart choice rather than timidity(怯懦). The main idea behind this principle is simple. People who live a stable and happy life have many good things to protect: a warm family, a healthy body, a steady job, and inner peace. ____17____ But people who are stuck in a bad life have little to lose, so they usually fight hard over small things and put everything at risk to win. ____18____ Imagine you meet a rude fight on the street one day. If you choose to fight back angrily, you may get into a heated argument or even get hurt. The short feeling of winning will cost you your good mood, your time and even your safety. However, if you step back calmly, you can avoid unnecessary trouble right away. This rule does not mean we should accept every unfair thing. ____19____ When your basic rights, your personal safety, or your moral line is seriously harmed, you have every reason to stand up for yourself. Stepping back only works when the fight has no value for your life. Learning to use this rule brings long-lasting good to you. It keeps you from endless emotional costs and helps you keep your inner peace. ____20____ True happiness lies in guarding your happy life, not in winning every small fight. A. Here is a common daily example that shows this rule clearly. B. It finally allows you to focus energy on what truly matters to you. C. Many people get the wrong idea about what true happiness means. D. Taking part in fights will make them lose more important happiness. E. It explains why happy people prefer to step back from meaningless fights. F. Just giving in without thinking will only make others act badly toward you. G. We should never give up what we believe in just to avoid short-term conflicts. 【答案】16. E 17. D 18. A 19. G 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了“幸福者退让原则”，解释了幸福的人为何更愿意从无意义的争斗中退让，以及何时应该坚持立场。 【16题详解】 由上文“Many people regard giving in to conflicts as weakness. Yet psychologists put forward a meaningful concept: the Happy Person’s Retreat Principle. (许多人认为在冲突中退让是软弱。然而，心理学家提出了一个有意义的概念：幸福者退让原则。)”以及下文“It is a wise and smart choice rather than timidity(怯懦). (这是一种明智而聪明的选择，而不是怯懦。)”可知，本空要说这个原则解释了幸福的人为何从无意义的争斗中退让。E选项“It explains why happy people prefer to step back from meaningless fights. (它解释了为什么幸福的人更愿意从无意义的争斗中退让。)”能承上启下，符合题意，该选项中的“It”指代上文的“the Happy Person’s Retreat Principle”，且该选项中的“step back from meaningless fights”与下文的“a wise and smart choice rather than timidity”相呼应，表示退让是明智选择而非怯懦。 【17题详解】 由上文“People who live a stable and happy life have many good things to protect: a warm family, a healthy body, a steady job, and inner peace. (过着稳定幸福生活的人有许多要保护的美好事物：温暖的家庭、健康的身体、稳定的工作和内心的平静。)”以及下文“But people who are stuck in a bad life have little to lose, so they usually fight hard over small things and put everything at risk to win. (但陷入糟糕生活的人没什么可失去的，所以他们通常为小事拼命争斗，并冒着一切风险去赢。)”可知，本空要说参与争斗会让幸福的人失去更重要的幸福。D选项“Taking part in fights will make them lose more important happiness. (参与争斗会让他们失去更重要的幸福。)”能承上启下，该选项中的“them”指代上文的“People who live a stable and happy life”，且该选项中的“lose more important happiness”与下文的“have little to lose”形成对比。 【18题详解】 由上文“But people who are stuck in a bad life have little to lose, so they usually fight hard over small things and put everything at risk to win. (但陷入糟糕生活的人没什么可失去的，所以他们通常为小事拼命争斗，并冒着一切风险去赢。)”以及下文“Imagine you meet a rude fight on the street one day. (想象有一天你在街上遇到一场粗鲁的争斗。)”可知，本空要引出一个日常例子来说明这个原则。A选项“Here is a common daily example that shows this rule clearly. (这里有一个常见的日常例子清楚地说明了这条规则。)”能承上启下，该选项中的“example”与下文的“Imagine you meet...”相呼应。 【19题详解】 由上文“This rule does not mean we should accept every unfair thing. (这条规则并不意味着我们应该接受每一件不公平的事。)”以及下文“When your basic rights, your personal safety, or your moral line is seriously harmed, you have every reason to stand up for yourself. (当你的基本权利、人身安全或道德底线受到严重伤害时，你完全有理由为自己挺身而出。)”可知，本空要说我们不应为避免短期冲突而放弃信仰。G选项“We should never give up what we believe in just to avoid short-term conflicts. (我们绝不应仅仅为了避免短期冲突而放弃我们所信仰的东西。)”能承上启下，该选项中的“never give up what we believe in”与下文的“stand up for yourself”相呼应。 【20题详解】 由上文“It keeps you from endless emotional costs and helps you keep your inner peace. (它使你免于无休止的情感代价，并帮助你保持内心的平静。)”以及下文“True happiness lies in guarding your happy life, not in winning every small fight. (真正的幸福在于守护你的幸福生活，而不是赢得每一场小争斗。)”可知，本空要说这条规则最终让你将精力集中在真正重要的事情上。B选项“It finally allows you to focus energy on what truly matters to you. (它最终让你将精力集中在真正重要的事情上。)”能承上启下，该选项中的“what truly matters to you”与下文的“guarding your happy life”相呼应。 第三部分 语言知识运用(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。 Back in 1971, a young man raised in poverty wandered across the nation, trying to make a new start for himself.

Dad worked as a mail carrier, rising before dawn and returning at dusk enthusiastically. On weekends, he coached a Little League team, patiently teaching kids how to hold a bat and position their feet. He would often show them how to swing hard to hit the ball, then dash around the bases to score. He used to say, “Baseball never gives up on you, and you shouldn’t give up on it either.” The accident happened on a rainy evening. He survived, but his right arm was crushed beyond repair. When he got home from hospital, he often sat on his bed, staring out the window and barely speaking. If I mentioned baseball, he would wave me off. One evening, I lay reading the sports page. Sunday was my birthday, and the Yankees were playing against the St. Louis Browns. In past years, Dad would have taken me. It hurt to read about baseball, until I spotted an article on a new outfielder named Pete Gray, who was dominating the game. Then I knew I had to get my father to that game. At dinner, Mom asked about my birthday. I said, “I want Dad to take me to the ballpark.” Dad just shook his head. I reminded him how he used to teach me to watch the fielders. He cut me off: “Go with a friend, or go alone.” After dinner, I handed Mom the article about Gray who was excelling in the major games. Her face lighting up, she promised to urge Dad until he gave in. Sunday morning, Dad, clean-shaven and wearing a jacket with his empty sleeve stuffed into the pocket, walked with me to the bus. He was silent, his face blank. At the stadium, I had chosen seats where we could see Gray up close. When Pete Gray stepped out, Dad leaned forward. Gray was tall and strong, but his right sleeve hung empty. “Can he play?” Dad asked, inching forward on his seat. 注意： 1.写作词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With Dad’s eyes fixed on Gray’s empty sleeve, I saw a flicker of hope in his eyes. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the game finally ended, I knew something inside Dad had shifted. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 With Dad’s eyes fixed on Gray’s empty sleeve, I saw a flicker of hope in his eyes. He straightened up and kept his gaze on Gray throughout the game. When Gray succeeded in a difficult play, Dad let out a quiet sigh, almost of relief. I gripped his good hand and whispered, “Dad, look! He’s doing everything you taught me. He never gave up, and neither should you. You still have your left hand, your sharp eyes, and all your baseball wisdom.” Dad’s jaw trembled, and for a long moment he stared at Gray, then, slowly but surely, his hand squeezing mine back. When the game finally ended, I knew something inside Dad had shifted. He rose from his seat, his face softer. He started talking about Gray’s techniques, his voice hesitant but alive. I seized the chance: “Let’s practice tomorrow; you can still show me everything.” He looked at his empty sleeve, then at me, nodding firmly. I tossed him a soft ball; he caught it cleanly with his left hand. For the first time in two years, he smiled and I realized my hope had become his, and baseball had given us back not just a game, but each other. 【解析】 【导语】本文以棒球为线索展开，讲述了父亲因车祸失去右臂后陷入消沉，作者通过带父亲观看独臂棒球运动员Pete Gray的比赛，帮助父亲重新振作、走出人生低谷的温暖故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写比赛进程中父亲从失神到专注的神态动作变化，以及作者顺势鼓励父亲的互动场景。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写赛后父亲心态的明显转变，回家后父子二人重启棒球练习，父亲重拾生活热情的温暖结局。 2.续写线索：观赛初始父亲沉默失神→看到Gray独臂参赛时闪现希望→观赛中父亲逐渐投入、情绪松动→作者借机鼓励唤醒父亲信念→赛后父亲心结消解、心态转变→父子重拾棒球练习、重获生活暖意 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①坐直身体：straighten up/sit up straight ②紧紧握住：grip/clench ③颤抖： tremble/quiver 情绪类 ①迟疑的：hesitant/uncertain ②宽慰：relief/ease 【点睛】【高分句型1】Dad’s jaw trembled, and for a long moment he stared at Gray, then, slowly but surely, his hand squeezing mine back.(运用了名词+现在分词构成的独立主格结构作伴随状语) 【高分句型2】He looked at his empty sleeve, then at me, nodding firmly.(运用了现在分词短语作伴随状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年秋季高一年级9月月考 英语试卷 考试时间：2026年9月29日 试卷满分：150分 第一部分 听力 (共两节、满分30分) 做题时先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节 (共5小题：每小题1.5分，满分7.5分) 听下面 5 段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有 10 秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1.Why does the man come to the woman?

B A few years ago, I stood in a small classroom just outside of New York City, watching a high schooler named Serena Stevenson answer math questions. A teacher read out numbers — 74,470, 70,809, 98,402 — and Stevenson added them in her head. For each question, she closed her eyes, and then the fingers of her right hand began to move. She answered most of the problems correctly. The key to her success was an ancient technology called the abacus (算盘). Stevenson used a practice called “mental abacus”, imagining the abacus in her mind and then using her fingers to work out the problems. From watching Stevenson, I knew that gaining skill at the abacus was more than a matter of counting beads (珠子), so I decided to sign up for an abacus course with my two daughters to see if we could also improve our math skills. I was one of the many who had some math doubts and I felt scared. My usual solution was escape, and if I had to calculate something like a percentage change, I would go online. Then after a few abacus classes and a good amount of practice, math seemed a little less scary. I didn’t become Euclid, the founder of geometry (几何学). But the practice brought my fears down. This is a time-tested power of the abacus. Confidence grows easily in the device (设备), and abacus students are less likely to be nervous about an upcoming math test. Part of the reason, it seems, is that practice and results appear to move in step. My kids gained much as well. My youngest daughter could work out those difficult math problems, while my older child brought her abacus to school to show it to her classmates and teacher. These were just small successes for them, but that was how they finally believed in themselves. 4. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To prove the difficulty of math. B. To introduce the topic of the abacus. C. To show the cleverness of Stevenson. D. To compare the author with Stevenson. 5. What do we know about the author from paragraph 3? A. He was weak in math. B. He was good at computers. C. He thought of math as useful. D. He had a close relationship with kids. 6. What does the author realize from his learning experience? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. It’s never too late to learn. C. Practice makes perfect. D. Faith can move mountains. 7. What did the author’s kids both gain from abacus learning? A. Interest in abacus. B. Working skills. C. Secrets to success. D. Self-confidence. C Does studying philosophy (哲学) really make people better thinkers? To test this claim, as researchers, we looked at data from more than 600,000 US college graduates, compared philosophy students with those in every other field, and published our findings in the Journal of the American Philosophical Association. The results were clear. By the end of their senior year, philosophy students did much better than all other students on tests of language and logical reasoning (逻辑推理). They also reported stronger virtues, including curiosity and open-mindedness. Why does philosophy have such an effect? Different from many fields that focus on specific knowledge, philosophy is best understood as a method of research. It asks questions about human life and the universe and then tests possible answers. Doing philosophy means building logical reasoning, recognizing hidden assumptions (假设), and arriving at their often surprising conclusions. These habits of mind enable students to think more clearly and carefully from different aspects. This benefit matters far beyond the classroom. At a time when public trust in higher education is at historic lows and AI is reshaping the workplace, the need for critical thinking has never been greater. AI can generate (生成) information quickly, but it cannot decide what is true or meaningful. If we humans don’t examine AI-generated information, our life is at risk. Our research does not claim that philosophy alone guarantees wisdom or moral virtue. Intellectual (智力上的) skills can be used for selfish purposes as well as for justice. But the evidence showed that studying philosophy helps us develop habits of thought that are measurable and lasting. It gives students the tools to question assumptions, face uncertainty, and make thoughtful choices in an ever-changing world. In short, philosophy is not beyond us — it is a necessity. It trains the mind, strengthens judgment, and prepares people to meet future challenges with courage. 8. How did the researchers carry out the study? A. By comparing data of graduates. B. By reviewing earlier studies. C. By interviewing philosophy students. D. By analyzing graduates’ behavior. 9. What makes philosophy students better thinkers, according to Paragraph 3? A. Their critical thinking skills. B. Their curiosity for mysteries. C. Their anxiety for knowledge. D. Their language and logical training. 10. Why does philosophy matter in today’s world? A. It is changing the workplace worldwide. B. It helps rebuild public trust in higher education. C. It provides us with wisdom and a sense of justice. D. It helps us get better prepared for the challenging reality. 11. What can we infer from the text? A. Philosophy matters more than AI in modern society. B. Philosophy students are the smartest among graduates. C. We need to study some philosophy to face the uncertain future. D. Philosophy students adapt well to the ever-changing workplace. D Throughout history, trees have played an important role in keeping the balance of nature. They take in CO₂ and turn it into oxygen. But one problem with this traditional way is that the CO₂ stored in trees can be let out back into the air when the trees die. However, the discovery of certain trees in Kenya adds a new dimension to this natural process. These trees, also found in several other countries, have been observed to turn CO₂ into calcium oxalate (草酸钙). Then bacteria in the trees and the soil around them turn it further into calcium carbonate (碳酸钙), a main part of limestone (石灰岩)and chalk. The special process makes sure that the CO2 is kept in solid form for much longer, even after the tree’s life ends. This finding was emphasized by Mike Rowley from the University of Zurich at the Goldschmidt Conference. While the scientific community is optimistic about these findings, several challenges remain. The main concern is determining the exact amount of CO2 that these trees can transform throughout their lifetime. Without this reliable data, it is hard to judge the full effect of this method globally. Understanding the ecological balance and protecting biodiversity (生物多样性) are important before worldwide planting of these trees. Cooperative research efforts are needed to explore these aspects and develop a good strategy for using these trees as a natural solution to climate change. This discovery in Kenya invites us to reconsider the power of natural processes in dealing with environmental problems. While technological answers to climate change are significant, combining natural methods offers another way. The special ability of these trees gives us a hopeful method for exploration. The journey to fighting climate change is hard. As we dig deeper into understanding natural phenomena like the Kenyan trees, we must ask ourselves: How can we make the best of the power of nature to create a long-lasting future for generations to come? 12. What is special about the trees found in Kenya? A. They help turn CO2 into solid state. B. They can take in more CO2. C. They can let out oxygen quickly. D. They live peacefully with bacteria. 13. Why is the reliable data on CO2 transformation of the trees important? A. To grow more trees in Kenya quickly. B. To carry out more cooperative researches. C. To measure the global effect of the CO2 transformation. D. To keep the ecological balance and increase biodiversity. 14. What does the author try to explore in the last two paragraphs? A. The method of green development. B. The future of scientific methods. C. The danger of global climate change. D. The role of nature in climate solutions. 15. What does the passage tell us? A. Fighting climate change is hard. B. Trees in Kenya store carbon naturally. C. Scientists get new progress in CO₂ studies. D. Tree planting is a key to ecological balance. 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 Happy Person’s Retreat (退让) Principle Many people regard giving in to conflicts as weakness.

People who live a stable and happy life have many good things to protect: a warm family, a healthy body, a steady job, and inner peace. ____17____ But people who are stuck in a bad life have little to lose, so they usually fight hard over small things and put everything at risk to win. ____18____ Imagine you meet a rude fight on the street one day. If you choose to fight back angrily, you may get into a heated argument or even get hurt. The short feeling of winning will cost you your good mood, your time and even your safety. However, if you step back calmly, you can avoid unnecessary trouble right away. This rule does not mean we should accept every unfair thing. ____19____ When your basic rights, your personal safety, or your moral line is seriously harmed, you have every reason to stand up for yourself. Stepping back only works when the fight has no value for your life. Learning to use this rule brings long-lasting good to you. It keeps you from endless emotional costs and helps you keep your inner peace. ____20____ True happiness lies in guarding your happy life, not in winning every small fight. A. Here is a common daily example that shows this rule clearly. B. It finally allows you to focus energy on what truly matters to you. C. Many people get the wrong idea about what true happiness means. D. Taking part in fights will make them lose more important happiness. E. It explains why happy people prefer to step back from meaningless fights. F. Just giving in without thinking will only make others act badly toward you. G. We should never give up what we believe in just to avoid short-term conflicts. 第三部分 语言知识运用(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。 Back in 1971, a young man raised in poverty wandered across the nation, trying to make a new start for himself.

Dad worked as a mail carrier, rising before dawn and returning at dusk enthusiastically. On weekends, he coached a Little League team, patiently teaching kids how to hold a bat and position their feet. He would often show them how to swing hard to hit the ball, then dash around the bases to score. He used to say, “Baseball never gives up on you, and you shouldn’t give up on it either.” The accident happened on a rainy evening. He survived, but his right arm was crushed beyond repair. When he got home from hospital, he often sat on his bed, staring out the window and barely speaking. If I mentioned baseball, he would wave me off. One evening, I lay reading the sports page. Sunday was my birthday, and the Yankees were playing against the St. Louis Browns. In past years, Dad would have taken me. It hurt to read about baseball, until I spotted an article on a new outfielder named Pete Gray, who was dominating the game. Then I knew I had to get my father to that game. At dinner, Mom asked about my birthday. I said, “I want Dad to take me to the ballpark.” Dad just shook his head. I reminded him how he used to teach me to watch the fielders. He cut me off: “Go with a friend, or go alone.” After dinner, I handed Mom the article about Gray who was excelling in the major games. Her face lighting up, she promised to urge Dad until he gave in. Sunday morning, Dad, clean-shaven and wearing a jacket with his empty sleeve stuffed into the pocket, walked with me to the bus. He was silent, his face blank. At the stadium, I had chosen seats where we could see Gray up close. When Pete Gray stepped out, Dad leaned forward. Gray was tall and strong, but his right sleeve hung empty. “Can he play?” Dad asked, inching forward on his seat. 注意： 1.写作词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With Dad’s eyes fixed on Gray’s empty sleeve, I saw a flicker of hope in his eyes. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the game finally ended, I knew something inside Dad had shifted. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
