(想要把自己的稻草人创意变为现实的游客，可以尝试亲手制作稻草人，作为有趣的纪念品，或者将它们送去参加村里的稻草人比赛。)”可知，游客可以制作自己的稻草人带回家。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Why Visit?部分中“Pictures for Days — You’ll find perfect photo spots around every corner. (随处皆可拍照——你会发现每个角落都有绝佳的拍照点。)”可知，优美的场景适合拍照，拍照是被鼓励的。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据第一段中“Peddler’s Village, an attractive destination in Pennsylvania, USA, hosts one of the most beloved festivals in the Northeast — Scarecrow Festival. (Peddler’s Village是美国宾夕法尼亚州一个迷人的旅游胜地，这里举办着美国东北部最受欢迎的节日之一——稻草人节。)”可知，文章主要介绍了美国宾夕法尼亚州Peddler’s Village举办的稻草人节，包括活动内容、特色和参观理由等，因此这是一篇关于节日的介绍。 B When I was in graduate school, I admired a student named Peter. Smart, articulate and charming, Peter was the type of person I wanted to be like. One day in the library — his final quarter before graduation — I congratulated him. His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.” His words terrified me. If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. I found myself feeling anxious and fearful. I had to secure my career — finishing school without a job was too risky. Then I recalled the repeated advice: “Network and build relationships. It’s who you know, not what you know.” They were right. Education wasn’t the highway to opportunity, just an on-ramp (入口匝道). The real highway was social capital — your network and the people who know you. Determined, I spent all my free time building relationships with potential employers. It worked — internships and jobs opened up — but it felt wrong. I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”. One day, I ran into a childhood friend at a café. He spent the whole time urging me to join his multi-level marketing scheme, promising I’d make enough money to quit working and support my parents — just by getting people to buy products they already needed. That moment changed everything. I realized: if networking feels unpleasant, you’re doing it wrong. Relationships are like a garden — tend them well, and they’ll grow and bear more fruit than you can consume. Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it. Becoming a generous relational investor is a lifestyle. So, what’s your approach? Are you a greedy consumer or a generous investor? It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?” 4. What does the underlined phrase “lined up” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Arranged. B. Canceled. C. Changed. D. Forgotten. 5. What can be known about the author? A. His parents were well-educated. B. He valued education highly. C. He grew up in a wealthy family. D. His parents worked in marketing. 6. How did the author change in thinking about networking? A. From believing “education is key” to “social capital is key”. B. From viewing networking as “necessary” to “unnecessary”. C. From treating others as “transactional partners” to “relational investees”. D. From focusing on “meeting employers” to “helping friends”. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Education: A path to Success B. Networking: Give Rather Than Take C. Job-Hunting: A Goal for Graduates D. Friendship: A Source of Suggestions 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了作者从最初将人际交往视为获取利益的交易，到后来领悟到真正的社交资本在于慷慨付出、服务他人，从而转变了对人际关系的看法。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.”(他的回答让我震惊：“我很兴奋，但我没有很好地建立人脉，所以还没有工作lined up。”)”以及第二段“If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? (如果像彼得这样令人印象深刻的人都没有工作前景，我会怎么样？)”可知，彼得因为没有很好地建立人脉，所以还没有安排好工作，故lined up意为“安排”，与arranged意义相近。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. (作为两个移民的儿子，教育是我成功的门票。我不能浪费这个机会。)”可知，作者高度重视教育。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”. (我将人们视为交易，只问：“我能从他们那里得到什么？”人际交往成了“必要的恶”。)”以及第六段“Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it. (与其索取，不如投资他人，服务他人，连接他人。给予社会资本不会耗尽它——它会成倍增加。)”可知，作者从把人际关系当作交易，转变为将其视为可以投资的关系。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合最后一段“It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?”(问“我能给予什么？”而不是“我能得到什么？”永远都不晚。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者对于人际交往观念的转变，从索取变为给予。因此“人际交往：给予而非索取”最适合作为本文标题。 C For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that. Many Americans learn about and enjoy different cultures through food. One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. It is especially popular on the US West Coast. But Chinese food is the top ethnic food nationwide. “Both cuisines (烹饪风格) have a rich history connected to the large immigrant (移民的) Chinese and Mexican populations in the US,” notes Georgie Mihaila. She is with a food-based blog called Chef’s Pencil. The website is the idea of professional chefs, who prepare meals for top restaurants. It uses information from search engine to identify the most popular ethnic food in the country. Mihaila said as generations of immigrants settled in the US, they made their food more readily available and less costly. Thai, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese restaurants are also gaining fans across the country. Their popularity is no accident, either. In 2002, for example, Thailand’s government started training chefs and sending them out to share their cuisine with the world. The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide. Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. Millennials are now the nation’s largest age group. They are generally between the ages of 26 and 40. And they are likely to share their eating experiences on social media. “It’s not just about the food, but also the atmosphere, the culture, experiencing something fun and memorable,” Mihaila said. In general, she added, Americans are making more adventurous food choices. Often, Chinese, Mexican and other ethnic food restaurants are less pricey than other eateries. But that is also changing. Mihaila said, “You have restaurants opening up across the country that are serving ethnic foods like Mexican, Thai or Indian, that are positioned to serve the upper end of the market.” Such businesses, she added, have seen great success. 8. What foreign food is the favourite in the most US states? A. Chinese food. B. Thai food. C. Mexican food. D. Japanese food. 9. Why did Thailand start its culinary programme in 2002? A. To train local chefs for top restaurants. B. To open more Thai restaurants globally. C. To compete with Chinese cuisine. D. To reduce food prices in Thailand. 10. What can we learn about Millennials from the text? A. They dislike traditional American food. B. They prefer costly dining experiences. C. They drive the demand for various food choices. D. They seldom share food online. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To advise readers to try foreign food. B. To compare Chinese and Mexican food in America. C. To show the importance of culinary diplomacy. D. To introduce the popularity of diverse ethnic foods in the US. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述美国作为大熔炉，各类民族特色美食深受欢迎，并分析其流行原因与消费群体特点。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. (一项研究显示，墨西哥美食在最多的州里是最受欢迎的民族特色美食。)”可知，在最多州最受喜爱的外国食物是墨西哥菜。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide. (“全球泰国”美食外交项目的目的是在全球增加泰国餐厅的数量。)”可知，泰国启动该项目是为了在全球开设更多泰式餐厅。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. (千禧一代正推动人们去体验更加多样化的美食。)”可知，千禧一代带动了人们对多样化美食选择的需求。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that. (多年来，美国被称作大熔炉，一个不同的人融合在一起的地方，该国的饮食偏好就体现了这一点。)”可知，文章旨在介绍在美国多元民族美食的流行情况。 D A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years. Ozone is a form of oxygen. In Earth’s upper atmosphere, it acts as a barrier to block harmful radiation from the sun. But closer to Earth’s surface, ozone is a common pollutant. At ground level, high levels of ozone can harm people’s lungs and damage plants. A European research programme collected the data. The programme equips commercial aircraft with instruments to measure atmospheric conditions during flight. The researchers used ozone observations from 60,000 flights worldwide. They centred on five areas of the Northern Hemisphere — the northeastern US, Germany, India, Southeast Asia and Northeast China and Korea. The Northern Hemisphere was studied because it contains a large percentage of the human population affected by air quality. The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere. Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods. To explore what was causing the changes, the scientists examined levels of nitrogen oxides (氮氧化物). They are considered to be atmospheric pollutants often resulting from human activities. The researchers used the aircraft data to create models to estimate how nitrogen oxide releases affected atmospheric conditions. The team said it found some of the sharpest increases in areas where ozone levels were once the lowest. These included Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as other parts of Southeast Asia, and India. Those areas had very low ozone values between 1994 and 2004, but very high levels in recent years, between 2011 and 2016. Next, Gaudel said her team plans to take a closer look at ozone levels in the tropics (热带). She thinks Africa will be one area to watch as a possible “hot spot” of increasing pollutive releases in coming years. 12. How is the text mainly developed? A. By giving examples and arguing. B. By raising questions and solving them. C. By following time order and space order. D. By presenting facts and research results. 13. What do we know about the ozone changes in some areas? A. Europe’s low-level ozone loss was balanced out by its upper-air ozone rise. B. Ozone rose both near-ground and higher in North America. C. India and Malaysia had top ozone levels from 1994 to 2004. D. All Northern Hemisphere nations saw steady ozone growth. 14. What is Gaudel’s attitude towards the data got by aircraft? A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Critical. D. Favourable. 15. What can we infer about the team’s future research? A. It will focus on ozone in the tropics. B. It will stop studying nitrogen oxides. C. It will prove Africa has no air pollution. D. It will cover all countries in Northern Hemisphere. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述一项新研究发现北半球低层大气臭氧污染物 20 年间有所增加，并介绍研究数据、成因与后续研究计划。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years.(一项新研究发现，在过去 20 年里，北半球低层大气中的臭氧污染物有所增加)”可知，文章全程客观呈现臭氧污染的相关研究背景、数据采集方式、观测结果和后续规划，即通过呈现事实和研究成果发展文章的。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere.(不过研究人员报告，包括北美和欧洲在内部分地区近地面臭氧含量下降。但他们表示，大气高层臭氧的上升抵消了这一结果)”可知，欧洲低层臭氧的减少被高空臭氧增加所平衡。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods.(该研究的主要作者奥德丽・高德尔称，国际航班收集的数据有助于长期清晰掌握北半球臭氧水平情况)”可知，她对飞机采集的数据持赞同、支持的态度。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Next, Gaudel said her team plans to take a closer look at ozone levels in the tropics (热带).(接下来，高德尔表示她的团队计划进一步研究热带地区的臭氧水平)”可知，团队未来研究将聚焦热带地区臭氧。 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。 Practical Methods to Improve Daily Communication Have you ever argued with your family or friends just because you failed to express yourself well? ____16____ It helps us clear up misunderstandings, build close relationships and settle disagreements peacefully. The following practical ways can help you improve your communication skills step by step. Before talking to others, take a minute to sort out your core ideas. It’s wise to pick two or three key points for your talk. When you get off track, these key points can bring you back easily. You can write down your main ideas on a notebook if necessary. ____17____ ____18____ Speaking is only half of communication. Listening carefully matters equally. When you listen attentively, you can know whether others fully understand your ideas. If they seem confused, you can ask questions to check their thoughts and adjust your words in time. Eye contact creates trust and shows your sincerity during talks. You’d better keep natural eye contact instead of staring all the time. ____19____ Some groups feel uncomfortable with long eye contact. Your gestures and faces send silent messages to listeners. Try to use relaxed facial expressions to show kindness and warmth. Stop negative expressions like tight lips or cold stares. ____20____ If you will communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds, learn related communication customs ahead of time. A. Communication requires both speaking and listening. B. Yet different cultures have different rules about eye contact. C. This simple action keeps your speech clear and focused. D. Poor expression always leads to unnecessary conflicts in daily life. E. Whether a gesture is proper mostly depends on cultural background. F. Some groups ignore body language while focusing only on their words. G. Good communication lets people exchange ideas without unnecessary fights. 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. A 19. B 20. E 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍良好日常沟通的重要性，详细介绍梳理表达思路、兼顾听说、眼神交流、得体肢体语言等提升沟通能力的实用方法。 【16题详解】 根据空前的“Have you ever argued with your family or friends just because you failed to express yourself well?(你是否曾经仅仅因为无法很好地表达自己，与家人或朋友发生争执？)”以及空后的“It helps us clear up misunderstandings, build close relationships and settle disagreements peacefully.(它帮助我们消除误解、建立亲密的人际关系、和平解决分歧。)” 可知，前文提出表达不佳容易引发矛盾的问题，后文代词 It 引出沟通带来的诸多好处，因此空处需要承接上文、引出下文，点明良好沟通的积极意义。G选项“Good communication lets people exchange ideas without unnecessary fights(良好的沟通能让人们交流想法，避免不必要的争执)”解释了有效沟通的价值，能够衔接前文沟通失误引发争吵的现象，同时契合后文沟通的各类益处，符合语境。 【17题详解】 根据空前的“Before talking to others, take a minute to sort out your core ideas. It’s wise to pick two or three key points for your talk. When you get off track, these key points can bring you back easily. You can write down your main ideas on a notebook if necessary. (在和他人交谈前，花一分钟梳理你的核心想法。为你的发言挑选两到三个要点是明智之举。当你偏离主题时，这些要点能轻松把你拉回正轨。如有需要，你可以把主要观点写在笔记本上。)”可知，前文详细介绍了谈话前梳理思路、提炼重点、记录观点的具体做法，空处需要总结这一系列行为带来的具体作用。C选项“This simple action keeps your speech clear and focused(这个简单的做法能让你的表达清晰、重点明确)”中的 This simple action指代上文梳理观点、提炼重点的行为，精准总结该做法的优势，承接上文做法，逻辑紧密，符合语境。 【18题详解】 分析语篇可知，此处为本段的主题句，统领整段内容。根据空后的“Speaking is only half of communication. Listening carefully matters equally.(表达仅仅是沟通的一半，认真倾听同样至关重要。)”可知，本段着重强调沟通不仅需要开口表达，也需要用心倾听，兼顾听说双方。A选项“Communication requires both speaking and listening (沟通既需要表达，也需要倾听)”完整概括本段核心主旨，总领下文关于倾听重要性的论述，适合作为段落中心句，符合语境。 【19题详解】 根据空前的“Eye contact creates trust and shows your sincerity during talks. You’d better keep natural eye contact instead of staring all the time.(眼神交流能够建立信任、展现真诚，交谈时应保持自然的眼神交流，不要一直盯着对方。)”以及空后的“Some groups feel uncomfortable with long eye contact.(一些群体对长时间的眼神交流会感到不适。)”可知，前文介绍通用的眼神交流礼仪，后文指出特殊情况，语义存在转折，空处需要解释该差异产生的原因。B选项“Yet different cultures have different rules about eye contact (但不同的文化对于眼神交流有着不同的准则)”通过转折词Yet形成逻辑转折，引出文化差异这一关键因素，解释了不同群体感受不同的原因，符合语境。 【20题详解】 根据空前的“Your gestures and faces send silent messages to listeners. Try to use relaxed facial expressions to show kindness and warmth. Stop negative expressions like tight lips or cold stares.(肢体和面部表情会传递无声信号，应使用放松的表情展现善意，杜绝消极神态。)”以及空后的“If you will communicate with people from different cultural backgrounds, learn related communication customs ahead of time.(如果与不同文化背景的人交流，需要提前了解相关沟通习俗。)”可知，本段围绕肢体语言展开，且强调文化对沟通礼仪的影响。E选项“Whether a gesture is proper mostly depends on cultural background (一个肢体动作是否得体，很大程度上取决于文化背景)”衔接上文肢体语言的运用，点明文化背景的决定性作用，自然引出后文跨文化沟通的注意事项，符合语境。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 When Mum was 86, she moved to our city.

My mind was full of the math problems I had to finish that evening, so I pushed a shopping cart and put daily food into it mechanically (机械地): pasta, a jar of tomato sauce, two apples, a piece of cheddar cheese, a cheap chicken breast (my mum told me to buy it specially), and my sister’s favourite yogurt. At the checkout counter, the cashier — a woman with tired eyes — scanned the items quickly, just like she had done hundreds of times before. The beeping noise kept ringing in my ears. “That’ll be $128.75,” she said in a flat voice. I took out my wallet, but I felt deeply embarrassed when I found I was $12 short. My face turned red immediately. “I... I’m so sorry,” I stammered, not daring to look at her. I could feel the impatient stares from the people waiting in line behind me. “I thought I had more money. I’ll just... I can take the cheese back.” Just as I started taking things out of the cart, a calm and gentle voice came from behind: “Wait.” I turned around and saw a man about 50 years old standing in line. He had kind eyes and a soft smile, and he didn’t look annoyed at all — instead, he looked understanding. “Please don’t take it back,” he said, holding out a $20 bill to the cashier. “It’s not a big deal at all.” “No, really, I can’t accept this,” I said firmly. I felt more hurt to my pride than embarrassed. “It’s my mistake. Thank you, but I’ll manage.” The man smiled more warmly. “Young man, we’ve all been in this kind of situation. Honestly, it’s just a few dollars. Just help someone else in need when you get the chance later.” His voice was so sincere that I couldn’t refuse anymore. I saw no pity in his eyes, only simple kindness between people. “Let me tell you a story,” he said. “My mum is fighting cancer at City Hospital,” his voice was calm but with a small, hard to-notice shake. “I always bring her fresh roses every day when I visit — they’re her favourite. But this morning, she got angry and refused to take my flowers, no matter what I said. She told me I should use the money to help people who really need it,” he paused and looked at me seriously. 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。 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness. I choked out my thanks, my face still warm with emotion. The man patted my arm softly, repeating, “Pass the kindness on.” Watching him leave the supermarket, the cold lights no longer felt lifeless. The people behind me nodded gently, and the cashier’s tired eyes softened. I clutched the cheese, knowing his mother’s love and his goodness had warmed this autumn afternoon deeply. His words stayed in my heart, a promise I was determined to keep. I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. Every weekend, I saved a little pocket money and volunteered at a community food bank. Once, I helped a kid who couldn’t afford his favorite snacks, just like the man helped me. When he thanked me, I smiled and said, “Help someone else in need later.” Bit by bit, I passed on that warmth. I realized kindness isn’t big gestures, but small acts that connect hearts, just as the man and his mother taught me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了“我”因购物差钱陷入尴尬，一位陌生男子主动帮忙解围，并分享其母亲患病却劝他助人的故事，“我”深受触动，决心传递这份善意的经历。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句“当我接受他的好意时，我热泪盈眶。”可知，接下来可描写“我”接受善意时的激动心情、对男子的感激，以及男子离开后“我”的内心触动。 ② 由第二段首句“我决心找出将承诺付诸实践的方法。”可知，接下来可描写“我”践行承诺的具体行动，通过小事传递善意，体现善意的传承。 2. 续写线索： 接受善意并感激落泪——男子嘱托传递温暖——践行承诺主动助人——感悟善意真谛（平凡小事暖人心） 3.词类激活： 行为类 ①抓住：clutch/grasp/grip ②决心做某事：be determined to do/make up one’s mind to do ③意识到：realize/recognize/be aware of 情绪类 ①因感动而内心温暖：warm with emotion/brimming with tender emotion ②疲惫的：tired/exhausted 【点睛】【高分句型1】I choked out my thanks, my face still warm with emotion. （运用了独立主格结构） 【高分句型2】 I clutched the cheese, knowing his mother’s love and his goodness had warmed this autumn afternoon deeply. （运用了现在分分词knowing作状语以及省略连接词that的宾语从句） 【高分句型3】Once, I helped a kid who couldn’t afford his favorite snacks, just like the man helped me. （运用了who引导的限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026 ~ 2027学年度第一学期第一阶段考试 高二英语 （试卷满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟） 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上，并将条形码粘贴在答题卡上的指定位置。 2．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑，如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号；回答非选择题时，用0.5mm的黑色字迹签字笔将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3．考试结束后，请将答题卡上交。 4．本卷主要命题范围：北师大版选择性必修第一册 Unit 1。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

One day in the library — his final quarter before graduation — I congratulated him. His reply shocked me: “I am excited, but I didn’t build my network well, so no jobs are lined up yet.” His words terrified me. If someone as impressive as Peter had no job prospects, what would happen to me? As the son of two immigrants, education was my ticket to success. I could not afford to waste this opportunity. I found myself feeling anxious and fearful. I had to secure my career — finishing school without a job was too risky. Then I recalled the repeated advice: “Network and build relationships. It’s who you know, not what you know.” They were right. Education wasn’t the highway to opportunity, just an on-ramp (入口匝道). The real highway was social capital — your network and the people who know you. Determined, I spent all my free time building relationships with potential employers. It worked — internships and jobs opened up — but it felt wrong. I treated people as transactions (交易), only asking, “What can I get from them?” Networking became a “necessary evil”. One day, I ran into a childhood friend at a café. He spent the whole time urging me to join his multi-level marketing scheme, promising I’d make enough money to quit working and support my parents — just by getting people to buy products they already needed. That moment changed everything. I realized: if networking feels unpleasant, you’re doing it wrong. Relationships are like a garden — tend them well, and they’ll grow and bear more fruit than you can consume. Instead of taking, invest in others, serve them, and connect them. Giving social capital doesn’t deplete (耗尽) it — it multiplies it. Becoming a generous relational investor is a lifestyle. So, what’s your approach? Are you a greedy consumer or a generous investor? It’s never too late to ask: “What can I give?” instead of “What can I get?” 4. What does the underlined phrase “lined up” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A. Arranged. B. Canceled. C. Changed. D. Forgotten. 5. What can be known about the author? A. His parents were well-educated. B. He valued education highly. C. He grew up in a wealthy family. D. His parents worked in marketing. 6. How did the author change in thinking about networking? A. From believing “education is key” to “social capital is key”. B. From viewing networking as “necessary” to “unnecessary”. C. From treating others as “transactional partners” to “relational investees”. D. From focusing on “meeting employers” to “helping friends”. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Education: A path to Success B. Networking: Give Rather Than Take C. Job-Hunting: A Goal for Graduates D. Friendship: A Source of Suggestions C For years, the US has been called a melting pot — a place where different individuals are mixed together. And the country’s food preferences show that. Many Americans learn about and enjoy different cultures through food. One study shows Mexican food is the most popular ethnic (有民族特色的) food in the largest number of states. It is especially popular on the US West Coast. But Chinese food is the top ethnic food nationwide. “Both cuisines (烹饪风格) have a rich history connected to the large immigrant (移民的) Chinese and Mexican populations in the US,” notes Georgie Mihaila. She is with a food-based blog called Chef’s Pencil. The website is the idea of professional chefs, who prepare meals for top restaurants. It uses information from search engine to identify the most popular ethnic food in the country. Mihaila said as generations of immigrants settled in the US, they made their food more readily available and less costly. Thai, Korean, Vietnamese and Japanese restaurants are also gaining fans across the country. Their popularity is no accident, either. In 2002, for example, Thailand’s government started training chefs and sending them out to share their cuisine with the world. The aim of the “Global Thai” culinary diplomacy (外交) programme was to increase the number of Thai restaurants worldwide. Millennials (千禧一代) are leading the push for more diverse food experiences. Millennials are now the nation’s largest age group. They are generally between the ages of 26 and 40. And they are likely to share their eating experiences on social media. “It’s not just about the food, but also the atmosphere, the culture, experiencing something fun and memorable,” Mihaila said. In general, she added, Americans are making more adventurous food choices. Often, Chinese, Mexican and other ethnic food restaurants are less pricey than other eateries. But that is also changing. Mihaila said, “You have restaurants opening up across the country that are serving ethnic foods like Mexican, Thai or Indian, that are positioned to serve the upper end of the market.” Such businesses, she added, have seen great success. 8. What foreign food is the favourite in the most US states? A. Chinese food. B. Thai food. C. Mexican food. D. Japanese food. 9. Why did Thailand start its culinary programme in 2002? A. To train local chefs for top restaurants. B. To open more Thai restaurants globally. C. To compete with Chinese cuisine. D. To reduce food prices in Thailand. 10. What can we learn about Millennials from the text? A. They dislike traditional American food. B. They prefer costly dining experiences. C. They drive the demand for various food choices. D. They seldom share food online. 11. What is the purpose of the text? A. To advise readers to try foreign food. B. To compare Chinese and Mexican food in America. C. To show the importance of culinary diplomacy. D. To introduce the popularity of diverse ethnic foods in the US. D A new study has found ozone (臭氧) pollutants in Earth’s lower atmosphere increased across the Northern Hemisphere over the past 20 years. Ozone is a form of oxygen. In Earth’s upper atmosphere, it acts as a barrier to block harmful radiation from the sun. But closer to Earth’s surface, ozone is a common pollutant. At ground level, high levels of ozone can harm people’s lungs and damage plants. A European research programme collected the data. The programme equips commercial aircraft with instruments to measure atmospheric conditions during flight. The researchers used ozone observations from 60,000 flights worldwide. They centred on five areas of the Northern Hemisphere — the northeastern US, Germany, India, Southeast Asia and Northeast China and Korea. The Northern Hemisphere was studied because it contains a large percentage of the human population affected by air quality. The researchers did, however, report lower ground-level ozone in some areas, including North America and Europe. But they said those results were canceled out by increases in ozone higher up in the atmosphere. Audrey Gaudel, the lead writer of the study, said the data collected by international aircraft was valuable in creating a clear picture of ozone levels over the Northern Hemisphere over long periods. To explore what was causing the changes, the scientists examined levels of nitrogen oxides (氮氧化物). They are considered to be atmospheric pollutants often resulting from human activities. The researchers used the aircraft data to create models to estimate how nitrogen oxide releases affected atmospheric conditions. The team said it found some of the sharpest increases in areas where ozone levels were once the lowest. These included Malaysia and Indonesia, as well as other parts of Southeast Asia, and India.

My mind was full of the math problems I had to finish that evening, so I pushed a shopping cart and put daily food into it mechanically (机械地): pasta, a jar of tomato sauce, two apples, a piece of cheddar cheese, a cheap chicken breast (my mum told me to buy it specially), and my sister’s favourite yogurt. At the checkout counter, the cashier — a woman with tired eyes — scanned the items quickly, just like she had done hundreds of times before. The beeping noise kept ringing in my ears. “That’ll be $128.75,” she said in a flat voice. I took out my wallet, but I felt deeply embarrassed when I found I was $12 short. My face turned red immediately. “I... I’m so sorry,” I stammered, not daring to look at her. I could feel the impatient stares from the people waiting in line behind me. “I thought I had more money. I’ll just... I can take the cheese back.” Just as I started taking things out of the cart, a calm and gentle voice came from behind: “Wait.” I turned around and saw a man about 50 years old standing in line. He had kind eyes and a soft smile, and he didn’t look annoyed at all — instead, he looked understanding. “Please don’t take it back,” he said, holding out a $20 bill to the cashier. “It’s not a big deal at all.” “No, really, I can’t accept this,” I said firmly. I felt more hurt to my pride than embarrassed. “It’s my mistake. Thank you, but I’ll manage.” The man smiled more warmly. “Young man, we’ve all been in this kind of situation. Honestly, it’s just a few dollars. Just help someone else in need when you get the chance later.” His voice was so sincere that I couldn’t refuse anymore. I saw no pity in his eyes, only simple kindness between people. “Let me tell you a story,” he said. “My mum is fighting cancer at City Hospital,” his voice was calm but with a small, hard to-notice shake. “I always bring her fresh roses every day when I visit — they’re her favourite. But this morning, she got angry and refused to take my flowers, no matter what I said. She told me I should use the money to help people who really need it,” he paused and looked at me seriously. 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。 My eyes were filled with tears when I accepted his kindness ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I resolved to figure out how to put promises into action. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
