Have you ever wondered how the remains of ancient animals become fossils? It is a long and slow process. Here is how it happens. After an animal dies, its body usually rots (腐烂) away or is eaten by other animals. But if the remains are quickly covered and kept safe from weather and hungry animals, the fossil-forming process can begin. Over time, sand and soil cover the animal’s body. Any remaining soft parts of the body, such as skin, then rot away, leaving only the hard bones. At this point, the remains are only partly fossilized. As sea levels rise and the ground changes, the animal’s body is buried (掩埋) deeper underground. The earth around it becomes hard under great pressure (压力). Slowly, the bones disappear and leave nothing but an empty space. Over a very long time, this cavity is slowly filled with hard materials from the ground. These hard materials take the place of the old bones. As the land changes again, the fossil moves closer to the surface. Finally, it may be found by people. 6. According to the passage, what is the first step in the fossil-forming process? A. The animal’s bones will disappear over time. B. The animal’s soft parts, such as skin, rot away. C. The animal’s body is quickly covered and protected. D. The animal goes deep underground by rising sea levels. 7. What does the underlined word “cavity” most likely mean? A. A soft part of the body. B. An empty hole or space. C. A pile of sand and soil. D. A material from the ground. 8. Why are fossils rare according to the passage? A. Most animals die in places where they cannot be easily found. B. The forming process requires certain conditions and a long time. C. Sea levels rarely rise enough to bury animal remains underground. D. Hard materials from the ground can fill the holes quickly enough. 【答案】6. C 7. B 8. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了化石形成的步骤，包括动物死亡后被快速掩埋、软组织腐烂、骨骼消失形成空洞、空洞被矿物质填充等过程。 【6题详解】 表格第一排指出：“if the remains are quickly covered and kept safe...the fossil-forming process can begin.”，说明化石形成的第一步是尸体被快速覆盖和保护。 【7题详解】 表格最后一排中“cavity”所在句为：“this cavity is slowly filled with hard materials”，结合前文骨骼消失后留下“an empty space”，因此“cavity”意为“空洞或空间”。 【8题详解】 化石形成需要“long and slow process”，且需要尸体被快速掩埋并保护，说明形成过程需要特定条件和漫长时间，因此化石稀少。 二、语篇理解与推理 (共12小题；每小题2分，满分24分) 阅读以下语篇，完成第29-32小题 International E-waste Day takes place every year on October 14. It’s a day to draw people’s attention to the problems of electronic (电子的) waste. In 2023, it called on people to care about “invisible” e-waste—things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices (设备) that get thrown away. These can include old computers, phones, TVs, as well as all kinds of other electronic devices. E-waste is a big problem. Though electronics can make life easier and more pleasant, the devices aren’t easy on the environment. As newer and better devices come out, lots of electronics are thrown away instead of being recycled. These things often end up in landfills, while the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can have dangerous materials like lead (铅) or mercury (汞). If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. A group known as WEEE asked researchers from the United Nations to study a kind of e-waste that was often not noticed. The WEEE calls this type “invisible” e-waste. The UN study shows that all the 61 million tons of e-waste in a year, about 1/6 is “invisible”, and that the value of this unseen waste is worth about $ 9.5 billion a year. The surprising type leading the invisible e-waste group is toys. Worldwide, about 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include toys like car racing sets, electric trains, musical toys and so on. In all, toys make up about 35% of the invisible e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The UN report shows that other everyday things like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools are also big sources of invisible e-waste. The report says that 36% of the world’s invisible e-waste comes from these types. Nowadays, more and more people get to know about the harm of e-waste, and they will devote more to getting electronics reused or recycled. 9. Why is e-waste a big problem? A. Because it’s difficult to collect it. B. Because it’s too bad for the environment. C. Because it takes up too much space. D. Because it costs people too much money. 10. How many tons of invisible e-waste are there in a year? A. About 7.3 million tons. B. About 60 million tons. C. About 6 million tons. D. About 10 million tons. 11. What can we learn from the passage? A. Few people will pay attention to invisible e-waste. B. More invisible e-waste will be thrown away everywhere. C. More landfills will be built to deal with invisible e-waste. D. More actions will be taken to reduce the harm of e-waste. 12. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To draw attention to invisible e-waste. B. To explain the meaning of invisible e-waste. C. To ask people to use fewer. D. To tell the purpose of International E-Waste. 【答案】9. B 10. D 11. D 12. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了国际电子垃圾日的重点——不可见电子垃圾，通过说明电子垃圾对环境的危害，引起人们对这类垃圾的关注。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“E-waste is a big problem. Though electronics can make life easier and more pleasant, the devices aren’t easy on the environment.”可知，电子垃圾是一个大问题的原因是因为这对环境危害很大。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The UN study shows that all the 61 million tons of e-waste in a year, about 1/6 is ‘invisible’”可知，一年内6100万吨的电子垃圾中，约有六分之一是不可见电子垃圾，即大约1000万吨。故选D。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Nowadays, more and more people get to know about the harm of e-waste, and they will devote more to getting electronics reused or recycled.”可知，越来越多的人开始了解电子垃圾的危害，他们将采取更多行动减少电子垃圾的危害。故选D。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了国际电子垃圾日的重点——不可见电子垃圾，通过说明电子垃圾对环境的危害，引起人们对这类垃圾的关注，A项符合。故选A。 阅读以下语篇，完成第33-36小题 ①Sitting through a family dinner, your uncle suddenly starts talking about different topics like an expert. But everything he knows is from TikTok. After exams, one classmate is sure to do well. But he ends up with far-lower marks than expected. Sounds familiar? This kind of behavior is called the Dunning-Kruger effect. ②In 1995, a man named Wheeler robbed a bank with lemon juice on his face. He believed it would make him not be seen. This story inspired two psychologists (心理学家) David Dunning and Justin Kruger to do some experiments. They asked people to tell how well they did in certain tasks. The results showed people with poor skills often thought they did much better than they actually did. They failed to see their own shortcomings, which made them too confident. ③Later, people used a simple graph (图表) to show this effect. It clearly tells us the link between our actual knowledge and our self-confidence. When we know very little about something, our confidence rises to a quite high point. We may even believe we know everything. Digging deeper, we begin to realize how difficult the topic truly is and our confidence drops. At this point, we start questioning ourselves. Only when we keep learning can our ability and confidences rise in a healthy way. ④This is not just a psychological phenomenon (现象) for strangers or uncles at dinner—it is a mistake that everyone may easily fall into. Have you ever laughed at your classmates’ mistakes without realizing your own? Have you ever turned a deaf ear to others’ advice because you thought you knew better? Have you ever felt fully prepared, only to be shocked by the final result? If so, you are having it too. ⑤Dear graduates of 2026, as you are stepping into senior high and then a wider world, remember that real growth lies in the courage to be modest (谦虚). Always remember to learn, feel, and listen, and you will surely shine brighter in the years ahead. 13. Which sentence might be said by the uncle in Paragraph ①? A. “I’m not sure. You’d better go and ask a teacher about this.” B. “Oranges are good for the skin? Let’s check more articles.” C. “This accident has many causes. I may not know the truth.” D. “This war would end fast if they just listened to me.” 14. What do the experiments by Dunning and Kruger show? A. Most people can see their shortcomings, more or less. B. Less skilled people often think highly of themselves. C. A person can tell how well he or she finishes a task. D. Lemon juice doesn’t work for hiding people’s bodies. 15. Who is most likely to be at Point D in the graph? A. A student who is beating self-doubt step by step with hard work. B. A person who feels super confident after taking the first driving lesson. C. A math teacher who feels very lost in the beginning of his teaching. D. An experienced doctor who keeps learning for many years at work. 16. Which of the following can be put in the third box of the structure? A. Listing more results. B. Sharing scientific facts. C. Connecting with readers. D. Discussing different ideas 【答案】13. D 14. B 15. D 16. C 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕邓宁-克鲁格效应（达克效应）展开，先以生活中的常见现象引入概念，接着介绍该效应的起源实验和对应的图表规律，然后联系读者的自身经历，最后向2026届毕业生提出谦虚学习、保持成长的建议。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。文章第①段“your uncle suddenly starts talking about different topics like an expert. But everything he knows is from TikTok.”表明文中的叔叔知识储备有限却盲目自信、喜欢不懂装懂，D选项的话语体现出极度自负、自认无所不知的特点，符合叔叔的行为特征。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。文章第②段“The results showed people with poor skills often thought they did much better than they actually did.”表明能力不足的人往往会高估自己的表现，对自身评价过高。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。文章第③段对图表的解释“Only when we keep learning can our ability and confidence rise in a healthy way.”以及图表中D点的位置，表明D点代表的是通过持续学习，能力和自信都健康提升的人，医生符合这一特征。 【16题详解】 篇章结构题。文章第④段“it is a mistake that everyone may easily fall into. Have you ever laughed at your classmates’ mistakes without realizing your own?...If so, you are having it too.”以第二人称反问读者的亲身经历，将达克效应与读者自身建立联系，对应文章结构的第三个部分。 阅读以下语篇，完成第37-40小题 One night when they were near Treasure Island, Jim wanted an apple from the large barrel (桶) on the deck. There were only a few apples left, so he climbed inside the barrel and sat in the dark, eating. Suddenly somebody sat down beside the barrel. Jim was going to jump out but he heard Long John Silver speaking. “Flint was the captain,” said Long John Silver, “and I was like him. The cannon (大炮) took away my leg and blinded old Pew as well. But we came home with a ship full of gold. I always do well with Flint. Most of his men are with me.” “Well, I’m with you too, John,” answered a young voice. It was Dick, the youngest sailor on board. Jim understood immediately that most of the ship’s crew (全体船员) were pirates. They planned to take the treasure. And now the new boy Dick was one of them too. “I told you that Dick was a good boy,” said another voice. It was Israel Hands, another sailor and a good friend of Long John Silver. “But how long are we going to wait?” “Well, we can kill them now,” said Long John Silver. “Or we can do it on the island, when treasure is safe on the ship. Or we can wait until Captain Smollett has set the course for home, because none of us know how to do that.” Jim jumped out of the barrel as no one was looking, and ran over to Dr Livesey. He found a chance to tell the doctor, the captain and the squire (乡绅) everything. “It’s strange,” said the captain. “This crew seems fine. Listen, this is what I think: first, we must go on, because if we turn back now, the crew will fight against us immediately; second, we have time to think of a plan until we find the treasure; third, ▲ We have your servants, Mr Trelawney, and ourselves, so that is seven out of twenty-six.” Jim began to feel desperate. There were only seven honest sailors out of twenty-six. —Taken from Treasure Island 17. What did Jim find from Silver’s talk with the two sailors? A. Dick was a good boy and the youngest sailor on the deck. B. Long John Silver wanted to kill Captain Smollett at once. C. Hands successfully persuaded Dick to join Long John Silver. D.

Jim climbed inside the barrel and ate apples in it. c. John Silver’s leg was taken away by the cannon. d. John Silver talked with Dick and Hands beside the barrel. e. Jim told the doctor, the captain and the squire everything. A. b-a-d-c-e B. b-a-d-e-c C. c-b-d-a-e D. c-b-a-d-e 19. Which sentence can be put in “ ▲ ” in Paragraph 10? A. seven sailors are dishonest. B. we need to hide treasure maps. C. some crew are on our side. D. there will be a fight with them. 20. What does the underlined word “desperate” mean in the last paragraph? A. careless B. hopeless C. hopeful D. cheerful 【答案】17. D 18. C 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，节选自《金银岛》，主要讲述了吉姆在苹果桶里意外听到西尔弗等人的密谋，得知船上大多数船员都是海盗并计划夺取宝藏，随后将此事告知利维西医生、船长和乡绅的故事。 【17题详解】 文中提到“Jim understood immediately that most of the ship’s crew were pirates. They planned to take the treasure.”，这直接表明吉姆从对话中发现大多数船员是海盗并计划夺取宝藏。 【18题详解】 故事顺序为：西尔弗的腿被大炮炸伤（c）→吉姆爬进桶里吃苹果（b）→西尔弗与迪克、汉兹在桶边交谈（d）→吉姆趁没人看见跳出桶（a）→吉姆把一切告诉医生、船长和乡绅（e），即c-b-d-a-e。 【19题详解】 船长后文提到“We have your servants, Mr Trelawney, and ourselves, so that is seven out of twenty-six.”，说明此处是说有些船员站在我们这边。 【20题详解】 后文提到“There were only seven honest sailors out of twenty-six.”，26个人里只有7个诚实的水手，由此可知吉姆感到绝望、无望，desperate意为hopeless。 四、语篇衔接与还原 (共5小题，每道题2分，满分10分) As middle school students, we often imagine our future. Will we invent things, help others, or create art? Thinking about the future guides our present efforts. Many students feel unsure about their future at first—and that’s normal. ____21____ For example, loving robot games might lead you to engineering, enjoying story-writing could point to a writing career. Trying new things connects hobbies to future roads. ____22____ Ask a veterinarian (兽医) how he helps animals, or interview a local artist. These conversations help you understand a job’s real work, not just its surface. Their stories show how to turn passion (热情) into work, and they may share tips for now. Setting goals doesn’t mean big plans. ____23____ If you want to be a teacher, teach a younger student. If you like space, read one astronomy book a month. Small steps make dreams achievable. The world changes, and new jobs will appear. ____24____ Learning a language, trying coding (编程), or joining debate club builds useful skills for any future job. Being open to learning prepares you for opportunities. It’s okay if your future ideas change—you might love medicine one year, then environmental science the next. ____25____ What matters is exploring (探索), asking questions, and doing your best today to build an exciting future. 根据语篇内容，从所给的选项中选择一个能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文意思通顺。选项中有一项为多余项。 A. Talking to people in different jobs also helps. B. Stay curious and keep trying new things, even without a clear plan yet. C. Start with small daily goals that match your interests. D. The only way to find what you love is to try different things——join a club, take a new class. E. You don’t need to know your future job, just focus on skills useful for many jobs. F. Pick one job and stick to it, even if you lose interest later. 【答案】21. D 22. A 23. C 24. E 25. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了中学生如何通过尝试新事物、与他人交流、设定小目标、培养通用技能以及保持探索心态来为未来做准备。 【21题详解】 前文讲很多学生一开始对未来迷茫，这很正常；后文举例爱好可以指引未来方向，尝试新爱好能对接未来道路。D项“The only way to find what you love is to try different things——join a club, take a new class.”承接上文的迷茫，引出下文尝试爱好的例子，逻辑通顺。 【22题详解】 后文讲述向兽医、当地艺术家提问交流，通过对话了解真实的工作。A项“Talking to people in different jobs also helps.”作为本段总起句，引出和不同职业的人交谈的做法，和后文例子对应。 【23题详解】 前文说设立目标不等于宏大计划；后文举例想当老师就辅导低年级学生，喜欢太空就每月读一本天文书，讲小步骤实现梦想。C项“Start with small daily goals that match your interests.”承接不要做大计划，引出匹配兴趣的日常小目标，呼应后文小步骤的例子。 【24题详解】 前文讲世界会变化，会出现新职业；后文讲学语言、学编程、参加辩论社团培养通用技能。E项“You don’t need to know your future job, just focus on skills useful for many jobs.”承接新工作会出现，说明不必确定未来职业，重点培养多种工作都能用的技能，衔接下文技能培养的例子。 【25题详解】 前文讲对未来的想法改变是正常的，今年热爱医学，明年可能喜欢环境科学；后文讲重要的是探索、提问、做好当下。B项“Stay curious and keep trying new things, even without a clear plan yet.”承接想法会发生改变，说明就算没有清晰规划，也要保持好奇不断尝试，和后文“探索、尽力做好当下”相呼应。 五、完形填空 (共15小题，每道题1分，满分15分) Leo was a bright boy, but his fear of speaking in public was like a giant wall in front of him. When his English teacher announced a school-wide speech contest, all his classmates were ____26____. Only Leo’s heart sank.

One part of him wanted to run away, but another small voice whispered, “What if you can?” That night, he talked to his grandmother. “Grandma,” he said, “I’m so ____30____ of making a fool of myself.” She smiled wisely and said, “Courage is not the ____31____ of fear, my dear.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述男孩Leo害怕公开演讲，面对全校演讲比赛满心退缩，在奶奶的开导下明白勇气不是毫无畏惧，而是懂得有比恐惧更重要的事。他坚持练习站上舞台，虽未夺冠，却成功克服内心胆怯。故事告诉我们：人生最有意义的征程，是突破内心恐惧、释放自身潜力。 【26题详解】 句意：当他的英语老师宣布全校演讲比赛时，他所有的同学都很兴奋。 根据后文“Only Leo’s heart sank”，说明其他同学是“兴奋的”，excited符合题意。relaxed“放松的”、proud“自豪的”、nervous“紧张的”，均不符合。 【27题详解】 句意：独自站在舞台上，成百上千双眼睛盯着他，这个想法让他手心出汗。 根据“on a stage”，表示“独自一人”站在台上，alone“独自的”符合题意。lonely“孤独的”（指内心感受）、single“单个的”（侧重数量）、lone“孤单的”（多用于诗歌或文学），均不符合。 【28题详解】 句意：“Leo，你有这么好的想法，你应该参加。”他的老师鼓励他。 根据前文老师鼓励他参加比赛，take part意为“参加”，符合题意。take time“花时间”、take up“占据/开始从事”、take away“拿走”，均不符合。 【29题详解】 句意：一连几天，Leo陷入了内心的挣扎。 根据后文“One part of him wanted to run away, but another small voice whispered”，说明他内心在“挣扎”，struggle“挣扎”符合题意。battle“战斗，斗争’”、fight“战斗”（常指具体打架）、war“战争”（规模更大），均不符合。 【30题详解】 句意：“奶奶，”他说，“我很害怕自己出丑。” 根据前文他害怕公开演讲，以及后文奶奶安慰他，他说自己“害怕”，afraid“害怕的”符合题意。scared“恐惧的”、terrified“极度恐惧的”、frightened“受惊吓的”，此处afraid最贴切。 【31题详解】 句意：勇气不是没有恐惧，亲爱的。 根据奶奶解释勇气不是“没有”恐惧，absence“缺席，缺少”符合题意。loss“丢失”、lack“缺少”、silence“沉默”，均不符合。 【32题详解】 句意：它是一个声音——比恐惧更重要的东西。你的声音很重要。 根据“Your voice is important”，说明这是一个“声音”，voice“声音”符合题意，呼应后文。discovery“发现”、discussion“讨论”、future“未来”，均不符合。 【33题详解】 句意：听到这句话，Leo感到一丝勇气。 结合上下文，此处指内心重拾勇气的力量，strength“内心的力量、底气”符合语境。power“多指权力/电力”、energy“身体精力”、“force 外力、武力”均不符合。 【34题详解】 句意：他每天晚上在镜子前练习。 根据后文“in front of his mirror”，表示比赛前在家“练习”演讲，practiced符合题意。said“说”、spoke“说话”、talked“交谈”，均不符合。 【35题详解】 句意：当他走上舞台时，聚光灯感觉比太阳还热。 根据“than the sun”，聚光灯照在身上感觉很“热”，hotter“更热”符合题意。emptier“更空”、fuller“更满”、whiter“更白”，均不符合。 【36题详解】 句意：他正要放弃。 根据前文“His mind went blank”，他很紧张，正要“放弃”，give up符合题意。give in“屈服/让步”、give out“分发/耗尽”、give away“赠送/泄露”，均不符合。 【37题详解】 句意：他深吸了一口气，就像他练习时那样。 take a deep breath为固定搭配，意为“深吸一口气”，breath符合题意。air“空气”、rest“休息”、break“休息/打破”，均不符合。 【38题详解】 句意：他的声音起初颤抖，但随着他继续，它变得越来越响亮、越来越清晰。 根据“grew...and clearer”，声音从颤抖变得“更有力/更响亮”，stronger“更强壮的/更有力的”符合题意。weaker“更弱的”、softer“更柔软的”、lower“更低的”，均不符合逻辑。 【39题详解】 句意：他没有赢得比赛，但他征服了自己的恐惧。 根据“He didn’t win first prize”，表示“没有赢得”比赛，won符合题意。beaten“被打败”、lost“输了”、defeated“被击败”，均不符合。 【40题详解】 句意：那天，Leo学会了一个终身的道理：我们从恐惧的牢笼到潜能的自由的旅程，是我们所走过的最伟大的旅程。 根据“from the prison of our fears to the freedom of our potential”，这是一段“旅程”，journey“旅程”符合题意。travel“旅行”（泛指）、trip“短途旅行”、tour“观光旅行”，均不符合。 六、短文填空 (共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，填入适当的单词或用括号内单词的正确形式填空。 Dick is a little blue whale (鲸鱼). He ____41____ (live) in the deep blue sea since two years ago. ____42____ he is not small at all. He’s much bigger than all his friends. Dick loves playing hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) with his friends. But one thing makes him sad all the time. He always ____43____ (lose) the game because he is ____44____ (able) to hide from his friends! Every time Dick ____45____ (find) easily by his friends. Is it because Dick not good ____46____ it? He is too big? He can’t hide ____47____ (he) in any place. When it’s his turn ____48____ (search), he can never find his little friends. They are so small! They can hide anywhere. Sometimes they hide behind Dick’s tail. “Uh... uh... Why can’t I be small, like my friends?” Dick complained. Mum said, “Of all the animals on earth, we are ____49____ largest. Dick, you ____50____ (be) even bigger when you grow up. Everyone should be happy about who he is and what he has.” 【答案】41. has lived 42. But 43. loses 44. unable 45. is found 46. at 47. himself 48. to search 49. the 50. will be 【解析】 【导语】本文通过描述小鲸鱼Dick在玩捉迷藏游戏时的困扰，以及妈妈的开导，传达了每个人应该为自己是谁、拥有什么而感到高兴的积极信息。 【41题详解】 句意：自从两年前，他就一直生活在深蓝色的大海里。根据“since two years ago”可知，句子时态是现在完成时，其结构是have/has done，主语是He，助动词用has，live的过去分词是lived。故填has lived。 【42题详解】 句意：但是他一点也不小。分析句子结构可知，此处缺少连词，结合上文“他一点也不小”和下文“他比他的朋友大得多”可知，此处上下文是转折关系，but“但是”符合题意，句首首字母大写。故填But。 【43题详解】 句意：他总是输掉比赛，因为他无法躲避他的朋友！根据always可知，句子时态是一般现在时，主语是He，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式，lose的第三人称单数形式是loses。故填loses。 【44题详解】 句意：他总是输掉比赛，因为他无法躲避他的朋友！根据“He always loses the game”和“He is too big”可知，此处指他不能躲避他的朋友，be unable to do sth“不能做某事”。故填unable。 【45题详解】 句意：每次迪克都很容易被他的朋友找到。根据Every time可知，句子时态是一般现在时，主语Dick是动作的承受者，所以句子用被动语态，其结构是be done，主语Dick是第三人称单数，be动词用is，find的过去分词是found。故填is found。 【46题详解】 句意：因为迪克不擅长捉迷藏吗？根据“Because Dick is not good…it”和上文“Every time Dick is found easily by his friends.”可知，此处指迪克不擅长捉迷藏，be good at“擅长”。故填at。 【47题详解】 句意：他不能把自己藏在任何地方。根据“He can’t hide…(he) in any place.”可知，此处指他不能把自己藏在任何地方，主语和宾语是同一人，所以宾语用反身代词，he的反身代词是himself。故填himself。 【48题详解】 句意：轮到他寻找的时候，他永远也找不到他的小朋友。根据“When it’s his turn…(search)”可知，此处是固定句型it’s one’s turn to do sth“轮到某人做某事”，所以此处用动词不定式。故填to search。 【49题详解】 句意：在地球上所有的动物中，我们是最大的。根据“Of all the animals on earth”可知，此处指三者以上的比较，所以用最高级，形容词最高级前要加定冠词the。故填the。 【50题详解】 句意：迪克，你长大后还会更大。根据“when you grow up”可知，此处指将来，所以句子时态是一般将来时，其结构是will do，be的动词原形是be。故填will be。 七、阅读与回答问题 (共5小题，第71题2分，第72-74每小题3分，第75题4分，满分15分) Sixteen-year-old Lily loves taking photos and sharing them on social media. She spends hours every day checking likes and comments. When she sees her friends’ posts about perfect grades, exciting trips, or new clothes, she often feels unhappy with her own life. She thinks everyone else is happier and more successful than she is. This feeling, known as “peer pressure” from the online world, makes her anxious and lowers her self-esteem. She even starts to doubt her own abilities and becomes less confident in daily life. One day, Lily’s school counselor, Ms. Green, noticed her change in mood. Instead of telling her to stop using social media completely, Ms. Green had a deep talk with her. She explained that people usually only share the best parts of their lives online, not the struggles. For example, a friend who posted about a great trip might have faced many difficulties during the journey but chose not to show them. Ms. Green also advised Lily to focus on her own real-life achievements and hobbies, like painting, which she truly enjoys. Lily realized that comparing herself to others was the root of her problem. She decided to make a change. Now, she is trying to spend less time on social media and more time on things that make her happy in real life. She has also started to post more about her own painting works instead of just liking others’ posts. Slowly, she begins to feel better about herself. 51.

Have you ever wondered how the remains of ancient animals become fossils? It is a long and slow process. Here is how it happens. After an animal dies, its body usually rots (腐烂) away or is eaten by other animals. But if the remains are quickly covered and kept safe from weather and hungry animals, the fossil-forming process can begin. Over time, sand and soil cover the animal’s body. Any remaining soft parts of the body, such as skin, then rot away, leaving only the hard bones. At this point, the remains are only partly fossilized. As sea levels rise and the ground changes, the animal’s body is buried (掩埋) deeper underground. The earth around it becomes hard under great pressure (压力). Slowly, the bones disappear and leave nothing but an empty space. Over a very long time, this cavity is slowly filled with hard materials from the ground. These hard materials take the place of the old bones. As the land changes again, the fossil moves closer to the surface. Finally, it may be found by people. 6. According to the passage, what is the first step in the fossil-forming process? A. The animal’s bones will disappear over time. B. The animal’s soft parts, such as skin, rot away. C. The animal’s body is quickly covered and protected. D. The animal goes deep underground by rising sea levels. 7. What does the underlined word “cavity” most likely mean? A. A soft part of the body. B. An empty hole or space. C. A pile of sand and soil. D. A material from the ground. 8. Why are fossils rare according to the passage? A. Most animals die in places where they cannot be easily found. B. The forming process requires certain conditions and a long time. C. Sea levels rarely rise enough to bury animal remains underground. D. Hard materials from the ground can fill the holes quickly enough. 二、语篇理解与推理 (共12小题；每小题2分，满分24分) 阅读以下语篇，完成第29-32小题 International E-waste Day takes place every year on October 14. It’s a day to draw people’s attention to the problems of electronic (电子的) waste. In 2023, it called on people to care about “invisible” e-waste—things most people don’t think of as electronics. Electronic waste, or e-waste, is the name given to old electronic devices (设备) that get thrown away. These can include old computers, phones, TVs, as well as all kinds of other electronic devices. E-waste is a big problem. Though electronics can make life easier and more pleasant, the devices aren’t easy on the environment. As newer and better devices come out, lots of electronics are thrown away instead of being recycled. These things often end up in landfills, while the chemicals inside them may be a danger to the environment. Electronics can have dangerous materials like lead (铅) or mercury (汞). If these materials get into the ground or water, the pollution can cause serious problems. A group known as WEEE asked researchers from the United Nations to study a kind of e-waste that was often not noticed. The WEEE calls this type “invisible” e-waste. The UN study shows that all the 61 million tons of e-waste in a year, about 1/6 is “invisible”, and that the value of this unseen waste is worth about $ 9.5 billion a year. The surprising type leading the invisible e-waste group is toys. Worldwide, about 7.3 billion electronic toys are thrown away each year. These include toys like car racing sets, electric trains, musical toys and so on. In all, toys make up about 35% of the invisible e-waste. But the problem is far larger than just toys. The UN report shows that other everyday things like home alarms, smoke alarms, power tools are also big sources of invisible e-waste. The report says that 36% of the world’s invisible e-waste comes from these types. Nowadays, more and more people get to know about the harm of e-waste, and they will devote more to getting electronics reused or recycled. 9. Why is e-waste a big problem? A. Because it’s difficult to collect it. B. Because it’s too bad for the environment. C. Because it takes up too much space. D. Because it costs people too much money. 10. How many tons of invisible e-waste are there in a year? A. About 7.3 million tons. B. About 60 million tons. C. About 6 million tons. D. About 10 million tons. 11. What can we learn from the passage? A. Few people will pay attention to invisible e-waste. B. More invisible e-waste will be thrown away everywhere. C. More landfills will be built to deal with invisible e-waste. D. More actions will be taken to reduce the harm of e-waste. 12. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To draw attention to invisible e-waste. B. To explain the meaning of invisible e-waste. C. To ask people to use fewer. D. To tell the purpose of International E-Waste. 阅读以下语篇，完成第33-36小题 ①Sitting through a family dinner, your uncle suddenly starts talking about different topics like an expert. But everything he knows is from TikTok. After exams, one classmate is sure to do well. But he ends up with far-lower marks than expected. Sounds familiar? This kind of behavior is called the Dunning-Kruger effect. ②In 1995, a man named Wheeler robbed a bank with lemon juice on his face. He believed it would make him not be seen. This story inspired two psychologists (心理学家) David Dunning and Justin Kruger to do some experiments. They asked people to tell how well they did in certain tasks. The results showed people with poor skills often thought they did much better than they actually did. They failed to see their own shortcomings, which made them too confident. ③Later, people used a simple graph (图表) to show this effect. It clearly tells us the link between our actual knowledge and our self-confidence. When we know very little about something, our confidence rises to a quite high point. We may even believe we know everything. Digging deeper, we begin to realize how difficult the topic truly is and our confidence drops. At this point, we start questioning ourselves. Only when we keep learning can our ability and confidences rise in a healthy way. ④This is not just a psychological phenomenon (现象) for strangers or uncles at dinner—it is a mistake that everyone may easily fall into. Have you ever laughed at your classmates’ mistakes without realizing your own? Have you ever turned a deaf ear to others’ advice because you thought you knew better? Have you ever felt fully prepared, only to be shocked by the final result? If so, you are having it too. ⑤Dear graduates of 2026, as you are stepping into senior high and then a wider world, remember that real growth lies in the courage to be modest (谦虚). Always remember to learn, feel, and listen, and you will surely shine brighter in the years ahead. 13. Which sentence might be said by the uncle in Paragraph ①? A. “I’m not sure. You’d better go and ask a teacher about this.” B. “Oranges are good for the skin? Let’s check more articles.” C. “This accident has many causes. I may not know the truth.” D. “This war would end fast if they just listened to me.” 14. What do the experiments by Dunning and Kruger show? A. Most people can see their shortcomings, more or less. B. Less skilled people often think highly of themselves. C. A person can tell how well he or she finishes a task. D. Lemon juice doesn’t work for hiding people’s bodies. 15. Who is most likely to be at Point D in the graph? A. A student who is beating self-doubt step by step with hard work. B. A person who feels super confident after taking the first driving lesson. C. A math teacher who feels very lost in the beginning of his teaching. D. An experienced doctor who keeps learning for many years at work. 16. Which of the following can be put in the third box of the structure? A. Listing more results. B. Sharing scientific facts. C. Connecting with readers. D. Discussing different ideas 阅读以下语篇，完成第37-40小题 One night when they were near Treasure Island, Jim wanted an apple from the large barrel (桶) on the deck. There were only a few apples left, so he climbed inside the barrel and sat in the dark, eating. Suddenly somebody sat down beside the barrel. Jim was going to jump out but he heard Long John Silver speaking. “Flint was the captain,” said Long John Silver, “and I was like him. The cannon (大炮) took away my leg and blinded old Pew as well. But we came home with a ship full of gold. I always do well with Flint. Most of his men are with me.” “Well, I’m with you too, John,” answered a young voice. It was Dick, the youngest sailor on board. Jim understood immediately that most of the ship’s crew (全体船员) were pirates. They planned to take the treasure. And now the new boy Dick was one of them too. “I told you that Dick was a good boy,” said another voice. It was Israel Hands, another sailor and a good friend of Long John Silver. “But how long are we going to wait?” “Well, we can kill them now,” said Long John Silver. “Or we can do it on the island, when treasure is safe on the ship. Or we can wait until Captain Smollett has set the course for home, because none of us know how to do that.” Jim jumped out of the barrel as no one was looking, and ran over to Dr Livesey. He found a chance to tell the doctor, the captain and the squire (乡绅) everything. “It’s strange,” said the captain. “This crew seems fine. Listen, this is what I think: first, we must go on, because if we turn back now, the crew will fight against us immediately; second, we have time to think of a plan until we find the treasure; third, ▲ We have your servants, Mr Trelawney, and ourselves, so that is seven out of twenty-six.” Jim began to feel desperate. There were only seven honest sailors out of twenty-six. —Taken from Treasure Island 17. What did Jim find from Silver’s talk with the two sailors? A.

She spends hours every day checking likes and comments. When she sees her friends’ posts about perfect grades, exciting trips, or new clothes, she often feels unhappy with her own life. She thinks everyone else is happier and more successful than she is. This feeling, known as “peer pressure” from the online world, makes her anxious and lowers her self-esteem. She even starts to doubt her own abilities and becomes less confident in daily life. One day, Lily’s school counselor, Ms. Green, noticed her change in mood. Instead of telling her to stop using social media completely, Ms. Green had a deep talk with her. She explained that people usually only share the best parts of their lives online, not the struggles. For example, a friend who posted about a great trip might have faced many difficulties during the journey but chose not to show them. Ms. Green also advised Lily to focus on her own real-life achievements and hobbies, like painting, which she truly enjoys. Lily realized that comparing herself to others was the root of her problem. She decided to make a change. Now, she is trying to spend less time on social media and more time on things that make her happy in real life. She has also started to post more about her own painting works instead of just liking others’ posts. Slowly, she begins to feel better about herself. 51.
