There are so many read out there that it’s easy to be overwhelmed by all of the possibilities, often leading to a disappointing choice or wasted money and time. We’re here to make the process just a little bit easier. Here are five tips to find your next awesome read: World’s famous works If you’re looking for a popular current read, then bestseller lists are a great place to start. Usually there’s a reason that a book ends up on one of these lists, guaranteeing a high quality read. There are always the classic lists to consult, like the New York Times or USA Today, which are both reliable and constant. Book clubs Maybe you’re already part of a local book club, so you know how great they can be in terms of introducing you to new books you might not discover on your own.

Some of these clubs are celebrity-run, like Oprah’s Book Club 2.0 or Emma Watson’s feminist book club: Our Shared Shelf. To 100 Lists Another way of finding a good book is to consult a top 100 lists. There are tons of them out there, from the traditional to the unusual. If you’re looking for a lot of solid classics, then try Time’s All-Time 100 Novels, which included books like On the Road and The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. If you want something a little more global, then head over to thegreathooks.org for their Top 100 works in World Literature. Goodreads Considering the fact that part of Goodreads’ mission is to “help people find and share the books they love,” then there’s no surprise that it’s an awesome way to discover new reads. Fans, readers and authors all connect on the site, sharing review s and shelving books they’re interested in. 1. What can we infer from the first paragraph? A. Reading wastes a lot of time. B.

B Diana was out shopping in a busy department store after work one evening. Just five minutes before closing time, she heard a staff member saying, “someone is having a seizure (癫痫)”: Walking quickly towards the staff member, Diana saw a fellow shopper on the ground. She had fallen and was lying on the floor, jerking uncontrollably. A small group of people had gathered to help the woman and a staff member called an ambulance. Dian a knew that she could use what she had learned on her first aid course to help as well. Knowing it was important to keep the woman safe, one of the employees brought over a staff jacket and they put it under the woman’s head so she wouldn’t injure herself. “The seizure probably lasted only a few minutes, but it seemed much longer while it was going on,” Diana said. “When the jerking stopped, a man helped turn the woman on to her side. I then tilted her head back to help her keep breathing. After the seizure, the woman seemed not to be able to understand what we were saying and couldn’t speak. Luckily, I had learned that this can happen after a seizure and it may take some time for people to get back to normal.” “It was such a comfort when she very tentatively answered that she was OK. By this time, the ambulance was on its way, the store had closed for the night and the other shoppers who had helped at first had left.” “We all a-greed that the woman was in safe hands with the first aider and a nurse who had also stopped to help, so I started to make my way out of the store.” “As I was leaving, one of the store’s employees said, ‘thank you for your kindness’”. “I was very touched by her words, and I told her that I’d learned first aid in case something like this ever happened, and now it had. Even though the incident left me feeling very shaken, I was glad I knew what to do to help.” 4. What did Diana do to help the woman suffering from a seizure? A. She called an ambulance for her. B. She helped turn the woman to one side. C. She brought over a staff jacket to keep her warm. D. She made sure the woman could breathe easily. 5. How did Diana feel after the incident? A. Grateful. B. Relieved. C. Anxious. D. Regretful. 6. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. Diana stayed to help when the ambulance arrived. B. The woman could not answer their questions because of pain. C. It was essential to learn some knowledge of first aid. D. The employee was too frightened to offer a helping hand. 7. Which proverb can be applied to Diana’s actions in this situation? A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Constant dropping water wears the stone. C. A friend in need is a friend indeed. D. Where there is a will, there is a way. C Picture yourself halfway up a winding trail, lungs burning, legs trembling, the summit still out of sight. You want to stop but you don’t. Something quiet and steady inside keeps you moving. That inner force, psychologists call grit (毅力) — the combination of persistence (坚持) and passion that keeps us going after goals. A new study from researchers at the China University of Geosciences explored what really develops that quality in young adults — routine workouts in the gym or unpredictable adventures in the wild. Over 1,200 university students took part in a 16–18-week course in either traditional physical education or outdoor education. Their grit levels were measured before and after the courses from two aspects: persistence of effort and consistency of interest. The answer, it turns out, lies somewhere between sweat and scenery. Both groups improved, but the difference was striking. Outdoor education produced bigger gains across every measure of grit, especially persistence. Students who spent a term facing real-world challenges became mentally stronger. That sense of mastery — “I can handle this” — builds the same kind of grit linked to lower anxiety, better dealing with stress, and greater life satisfaction. In contrast, traditional PE improved students’ persistence but actually reduced their interest consistency — their ability to stay engaged with long-term goals. Repetitive routines, limited autonomy, and predictable settings may weaken curiosity over time. Outdoor education, however, thrives on uncertainty. Newness doesn’t just keep us entertained; it keeps us engaged. From the perspective of Self-Determination Theory, outdoor programs meet the three psychological needs that fuel motivation: autonomy (you choose how to face challenges), competence (you see progress), and relatedness (you rely on teammates). Together, they create a powerful recipe for inner motivation. This study shows that the environment we learn in shapes not just our bodies but our minds’ ability to persist.In a world of digital distraction (分心) and instant satisfaction, outdoor education reminds us that grit grows through hardship. For anyone seeking for long-term change, the message is simple: step outside. 8. Which one is most beneficial to the development of grit? A. Running on the same school track. B. Swimming in a sports center pool. C. Climbing mountains in a natural park. D. Playing basketball in an indoor stadium. 9. What does the underlined word “thrives” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Focuses. B. Grows. C. Depends. D. Survives. 10. Why is Self-Determination Theory mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To explain outdoor programs’ motivational effect. B. To analyze the physical benefits of newness in life. C. To introduce the popularity of outdoor education. D. To define the key driving factors of motivation. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Grit contributes to the long-term change. B. Outdoor challenges build a tougher mind. C. Natural scenery improves mental health. D. Routine workouts weaken inner motivation. D Over the past few years, areas in East Asia, North America and northern Europe have been colder than normal during some periods of winter. This has left many debating whether Earth is experiencing global warming or not, but scientists have shown that Earth’s warming trends are responsible. When people in the Northern Hemisphere hear North Pole or Arctic region, they automatically think of the hemisphere’s northernmost area, the home of extremely cold weather during late fall and winter. During this time, very little, if any, sunlight reaches the Arctic’s stratosphere, one layer of Earth’s atmosphere that exists six to 20 kilometers above Earth’s surface. To balance the temperature difference with that of the warm equatorial region, an area of low pressure called the polar vortex forms and flows in a complete circle around the pole. This occurs inside the stratosphere (平流层) about 10 kilometers above the Earth’s surface. While this belt of strong winds is usually stable and able to keep the cold air contained, it can be destroyed by loss of sea ice, due to global warming. This results in surface temperatures changing, changes which make them less stable. If this happens, the polar vortex may shift, slipping off the North Pole and moving south, or it can separate into two or three rings that form in multiple places far south of the pole. This stretching or distortion of the polar vortex also makes influences on the path of the polar jet stream, which is responsible for Earth’s weather. This jet stream, along with three other primary jet streams in different parts of the world, is located in the troposphere (对流层), the atmospheric layer just below the stratosphere. The polar jet stream’s air currents blow from 177 kilometers an hour to over 400 kilometers an hour and from west to east between 50 degrees and 60 degrees latitude — think from France to Norway. The differences in cold polar air and warm mid-latitude air form the polar jet stream, and its movement prolongs periods of cold or warm weather in different regions. Large temperature differences between the Arctic and mid-latitudes cause the polar jet stream to be strong and move straight, keeping the cold in the north. Because the Arctic is warming at a fast pace, the temperature difference between it and mid-latitudes is decreasing, making the polar jet stream slower and weaker. That, in turn, makes the stream more likely to bend north and south. When it bends far enough, the barrier between Arctic and mid-latitude air can dive down to Mexico, taking Arctic temperatures along for the ride. Although heat and cold are considered opposites, in the case of climate, the former can cause the latter. 12. What causes the polar vortex to form? A. Sea ice loss in the Arctic B. The polar jet stream’s bending C. Strong winds inside the troposphere D. Temperature differences with the equator 13. The word “prolong” (para 5) is closest in meaning to ________ A. control B. regulate C. extend D. shorten 14. Why do some winters get colder globally? A. Arctic warming weakens jet stream B. The polar vortex becomes stronger C. Less sunlight reaches Arctic D. The Arctic loses its cold air 15. What is the main focus of the passage? A. The Relationship between Warming Earth and Colder Winters. B. The Potential Reasons for Earth Becoming Warmer and Warmer. C. The Strange Phenomenon of Warming Trends with Colder Weather. D. The Temperature Differences between the Arctic and Mid-latitude Areas. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people’s mood goes slightly down as the days are getting shorter. Even if you don’t suffer from SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) —also called winter depression — you might feel different than just a few weeks ago. Does that sound familiar? ___16___ As Mirthy’s Laughter Yoga Leader, I strongly believe in the health benefits of laughter, which are indeed impressive. The most obvious gain is that it puts people in a good mood. We assess mood levels before and after the Laughter Yoga session. Many participants’ mood goes up by at least two points—and that’s without drugs or pills, just by “a little bit” of laughter. Dr Madan Kataria, who is a medical doctor and created Laughter Yoga, did quite a bit of research and found that laughter is a mild antidepressant (抗抑郁药) as it releases endorphins and serotonin. ___17___— again hormones and natural opiates (天然鸦片) play a big role in it — and without side effects. ___18___ It reduces the levels of stress hormones in our bodies. If you keep in mind that almost 90% of all illnesses are associated with stress and tension we hold in our body, laughter is an easy remedy, isn’t it? So there is some truth in the old saying: “Laughter is the best medicine” — well, at least it’s a start! Some people go to the gym first thing in the morning. If that’s not your thing, just keep in mind that laughter is an aerobic exercise (有氧运动) — probably with much more fun! ___19___ I could go on, but I’ll stop here. For more health benefits, check out the PubMed research database where you’ll find over 2, 600 references to laughter. ___20___ A. Just bring yourself an open mind. B. Laughter is also a great stress relief. C. If so, I have a possible solution for you! D. This is to support our oxygen intake even more. E. What’s more, laughter can be a natural pain killer. F. Or maybe you can simply join us for the next Mirthy class. G. Research found that ten minutes of laughter equals thirty minutes on the rowing machine. 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。 As part of my New Year’s resolution, I decided it was time to get my driver’s license.

Every year, the local high school held a science fair, and Emma had always placed high but never won first place. This year, she was determined to change that. Emma spent months working on her project, a study on renewable energy using algae (藻类). She recorded data, ran experiments, and even stayed up late into the night perfecting her presentation. Her parents often found her working at her laptop, surrounded by books and lab equipment. One evening, a week before the science fair, Emma was working on her project when her laptop screen suddenly went black. Panicked, she tried to restart it, but it was no use. All her data, notes, and the presentation were on that laptop, and she hadn’t backed up her files. Desperate, Emma took the laptop to the local repair shop. The technician told her it would take at least a week to recover the data, if it was even possible. Emma left the shop, feeling a sense of despair. How could she possibly recreate everything in just a few days? Returning home, she sat on her bed, fighting back tears. Her mind flashed back to a conversation she had had with her science teacher, Mr. Reynolds, earlier in the year. He told her the true test of a scientist was not in how they handled success, but in how they overcame failure and that innovation often came from the ability to adapt and persevere. Emma let Mr. Reynolds’ words sink in. She realized that this was her chance to prove herself — as a true scientist. Determined to make the best of her situation, she began to gather all the resources she still had. She found her handwritten notes, some scattered (散乱的) papers, and relied on her memory to recall key points of her research. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Taking a deep breath, Emma decided to start over. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After the fair, the winners were to be announced. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 保密★启用前 2025级高二调研测试（1） 英语 2026.10 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） 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。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.

Just five minutes before closing time, she heard a staff member saying, “someone is having a seizure (癫痫)”: Walking quickly towards the staff member, Diana saw a fellow shopper on the ground. She had fallen and was lying on the floor, jerking uncontrollably. A small group of people had gathered to help the woman and a staff member called an ambulance. Dian a knew that she could use what she had learned on her first aid course to help as well. Knowing it was important to keep the woman safe, one of the employees brought over a staff jacket and they put it under the woman’s head so she wouldn’t injure herself. “The seizure probably lasted only a few minutes, but it seemed much longer while it was going on,” Diana said. “When the jerking stopped, a man helped turn the woman on to her side. I then tilted her head back to help her keep breathing. After the seizure, the woman seemed not to be able to understand what we were saying and couldn’t speak. Luckily, I had learned that this can happen after a seizure and it may take some time for people to get back to normal.” “It was such a comfort when she very tentatively answered that she was OK. By this time, the ambulance was on its way, the store had closed for the night and the other shoppers who had helped at first had left.” “We all a-greed that the woman was in safe hands with the first aider and a nurse who had also stopped to help, so I started to make my way out of the store.” “As I was leaving, one of the store’s employees said, ‘thank you for your kindness’”. “I was very touched by her words, and I told her that I’d learned first aid in case something like this ever happened, and now it had. Even though the incident left me feeling very shaken, I was glad I knew what to do to help.” 4. What did Diana do to help the woman suffering from a seizure? A. She called an ambulance for her. B. She helped turn the woman to one side. C. She brought over a staff jacket to keep her warm. D. She made sure the woman could breathe easily. 5. How did Diana feel after the incident? A. Grateful. B. Relieved. C. Anxious. D. Regretful. 6. What can we learn from the last two paragraphs? A. Diana stayed to help when the ambulance arrived. B.

You want to stop but you don’t. Something quiet and steady inside keeps you moving. That inner force, psychologists call grit (毅力) — the combination of persistence (坚持) and passion that keeps us going after goals. A new study from researchers at the China University of Geosciences explored what really develops that quality in young adults — routine workouts in the gym or unpredictable adventures in the wild. Over 1,200 university students took part in a 16–18-week course in either traditional physical education or outdoor education. Their grit levels were measured before and after the courses from two aspects: persistence of effort and consistency of interest. The answer, it turns out, lies somewhere between sweat and scenery. Both groups improved, but the difference was striking. Outdoor education produced bigger gains across every measure of grit, especially persistence. Students who spent a term facing real-world challenges became mentally stronger. That sense of mastery — “I can handle this” — builds the same kind of grit linked to lower anxiety, better dealing with stress, and greater life satisfaction. In contrast, traditional PE improved students’ persistence but actually reduced their interest consistency — their ability to stay engaged with long-term goals. Repetitive routines, limited autonomy, and predictable settings may weaken curiosity over time. Outdoor education, however, thrives on uncertainty. Newness doesn’t just keep us entertained; it keeps us engaged. From the perspective of Self-Determination Theory, outdoor programs meet the three psychological needs that fuel motivation: autonomy (you choose how to face challenges), competence (you see progress), and relatedness (you rely on teammates). Together, they create a powerful recipe for inner motivation. This study shows that the environment we learn in shapes not just our bodies but our minds’ ability to persist.In a world of digital distraction (分心) and instant satisfaction, outdoor education reminds us that grit grows through hardship. For anyone seeking for long-term change, the message is simple: step outside. 8. Which one is most beneficial to the development of grit? A. Running on the same school track. B. Swimming in a sports center pool. C. Climbing mountains in a natural park. D. Playing basketball in an indoor stadium. 9. What does the underlined word “thrives” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Focuses. B. Grows. C. Depends. D. Survives. 10. Why is Self-Determination Theory mentioned in paragraph 4? A. To explain outdoor programs’ motivational effect. B. To analyze the physical benefits of newness in life. C. To introduce the popularity of outdoor education. D. To define the key driving factors of motivation. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Grit contributes to the long-term change. B. Outdoor challenges build a tougher mind. C. Natural scenery improves mental health. D. Routine workouts weaken inner motivation. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过一项研究对比传统体育课与户外教育对年轻人毅力培养的影响，指出户外未知挑战更能提升人的毅力与心理素质，并从自我决定理论角度解释户外教育激发内在动力的原因，呼吁人们走进自然、在历练中磨砺心智。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Outdoor education produced bigger gains across every measure of grit, especially persistence.(户外教育在毅力的各项衡量指标上都带来了更大的提升，尤其是在坚持性方面。)”可知，户外教育更利于培养毅力。C在自然公园登山属于户外探索挑战，符合户外教育范畴。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“Repetitive routines, limited autonomy, and predictable settings may weaken curiosity over time. Outdoor education, however, thrives on uncertainty.(日复一日的常规、有限的自主权和可预测的环境可能会随着时间的推移削弱好奇心。然而，户外教育却在不确定性中thrives。)”可知，前文提到常规体育项目会消磨好奇心，而户外教育依托不确定性发展，可推断thrives此处意为“成长、发展”。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“From the perspective of Self-Determination Theory, outdoor programs meet the three psychological needs that fuel motivation: autonomy (you choose how to face challenges), competence (you see progress), and relatedness (you rely on teammates).(从自我决定理论的角度来看，户外项目满足了激发动力的三个心理需求：自主性——你可以选择如何面对挑战、胜任感——你能看到自己的进步、关联性——你可以依靠队友。)”可知，引入自我决定理论，是为了解释户外项目为何能激发内在动力。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是第二段“A new study from researchers at the China University of Geosciences explored what really develops that quality in young adults — routine workouts in the gym or unpredictable adventures in the wild.(中国地质大学的研究人员开展的一项新研究探讨了究竟是什么促使年轻人养成了这种品质——是在健身房进行规律锻炼，还是在野外经历不可预测的冒险？)”和第三段“Outdoor education produced bigger gains across every measure of grit, especially persistence.(户外教育在毅力的各项衡量指标上都带来了更大的提升，尤其是在坚持性方面。)”可知，全文围绕户外挑战相比常规运动更能磨砺心智、培养毅力展开论述。 D Over the past few years, areas in East Asia, North America and northern Europe have been colder than normal during some periods of winter. This has left many debating whether Earth is experiencing global warming or not, but scientists have shown that Earth’s warming trends are responsible. When people in the Northern Hemisphere hear North Pole or Arctic region, they automatically think of the hemisphere’s northernmost area, the home of extremely cold weather during late fall and winter. During this time, very little, if any, sunlight reaches the Arctic’s stratosphere, one layer of Earth’s atmosphere that exists six to 20 kilometers above Earth’s surface. To balance the temperature difference with that of the warm equatorial region, an area of low pressure called the polar vortex forms and flows in a complete circle around the pole. This occurs inside the stratosphere (平流层) about 10 kilometers above the Earth’s surface. While this belt of strong winds is usually stable and able to keep the cold air contained, it can be destroyed by loss of sea ice, due to global warming. This results in surface temperatures changing, changes which make them less stable. If this happens, the polar vortex may shift, slipping off the North Pole and moving south, or it can separate into two or three rings that form in multiple places far south of the pole. This stretching or distortion of the polar vortex also makes influences on the path of the polar jet stream, which is responsible for Earth’s weather. This jet stream, along with three other primary jet streams in different parts of the world, is located in the troposphere (对流层), the atmospheric layer just below the stratosphere. The polar jet stream’s air currents blow from 177 kilometers an hour to over 400 kilometers an hour and from west to east between 50 degrees and 60 degrees latitude — think from France to Norway. The differences in cold polar air and warm mid-latitude air form the polar jet stream, and its movement prolongs periods of cold or warm weather in different regions. Large temperature differences between the Arctic and mid-latitudes cause the polar jet stream to be strong and move straight, keeping the cold in the north. Because the Arctic is warming at a fast pace, the temperature difference between it and mid-latitudes is decreasing, making the polar jet stream slower and weaker. That, in turn, makes the stream more likely to bend north and south. When it bends far enough, the barrier between Arctic and mid-latitude air can dive down to Mexico, taking Arctic temperatures along for the ride. Although heat and cold are considered opposites, in the case of climate, the former can cause the latter. 12. What causes the polar vortex to form? A. Sea ice loss in the Arctic B. The polar jet stream’s bending C. Strong winds inside the troposphere D. Temperature differences with the equator 13. The word “prolong” (para 5) is closest in meaning to ________ A. control B. regulate C. extend D. shorten 14. Why do some winters get colder globally? A. Arctic warming weakens jet stream B. The polar vortex becomes stronger C. Less sunlight reaches Arctic D. The Arctic loses its cold air 15. What is the main focus of the passage? A. The Relationship between Warming Earth and Colder Winters. B. The Potential Reasons for Earth Becoming Warmer and Warmer. C. The Strange Phenomenon of Warming Trends with Colder Weather. D. The Temperature Differences between the Arctic and Mid-latitude Areas. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了北极涡旋和极地急流的形成原理，并解释了全球变暖如何通过削弱极地急流导致中纬度地区冬季出现异常寒冷的天气，揭示了“地球变暖”与“冬天变冷”之间的内在联系。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“To balance the temperature difference with that of the warm equatorial region, an area of low pressure called the polar vortex forms and flows in a complete circle around the pole.(为了平衡与温暖的赤道地区之间的温差，一个被称为极地涡旋的低压区域形成并绕极流动)”可知，极地涡旋的形成是为了平衡北极与赤道地区之间的温差，即温差是极地涡旋形成的原因。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“Large temperature differences between the Arctic and mid-latitudes cause the polar jet stream to be strong and move straight, keeping the cold in the north. Because the Arctic is warming at a fast pace, the temperature difference between it and mid-latitudes is decreasing, making the polar jet stream slower and weaker.(由于北极与中纬度之间存在较大的温差，极地急流变得强劲且直线移动，从而将寒冷气候保留在北方。由于北极正在快速变暖，它与中纬度地区之间的温差正在减小，使极地急流变得更慢、更弱)”可知，极地急流的运动会延长不同地区冷暖天气的持续时间。由此可知，划线词prolong 与extend“延长”意思接近。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Because the Arctic is warming at a fast pace, the temperature difference between it and mid-latitudes is decreasing, making the polar jet stream slower and weaker.(由于北极正在快速变暖，北极与中纬度地区之间的温差正在缩小，使得极地急流变得更慢、更弱)”以及“When it bends far enough, the barrier between Arctic and mid-latitude air can dive down to Mexico, taking Arctic temperatures along for the ride.(当它弯曲得足够远时，北极冷空气与中纬度空气之间的屏障可以一路南压到墨西哥，将北极的低温一并带过去)”可知，北极变暖削弱了极地急流，使冷空气南侵，导致一些地区的冬季更冷。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章第一段提出问题——部分地区冬季出现寒冷天气，人们争论地球是否在变暖，并指出科学家已经证明地球的变暖趋势是罪魁祸首；随后各段围绕这一话题展开，解释全球变暖如何通过破坏极地涡旋、削弱极地急流导致冬季寒冷。文章最后一段“Although heat and cold are considered opposites, in the case of climate, the former can cause the latter.(虽然热与冷被认为是相反的，但在气候问题上，前者可以导致后者)”再次点明主旨：气候变暖反而会导致寒冷天气。因此本文的主旨是地球变暖与寒冷冬季之间的关系。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Many people’s mood goes slightly down as the days are getting shorter.

Dr Madan Kataria, who is a medical doctor and created Laughter Yoga, did quite a bit of research and found that laughter is a mild antidepressant (抗抑郁药) as it releases endorphins and serotonin. ___17___— again hormones and natural opiates (天然鸦片) play a big role in it — and without side effects. ___18___ It reduces the levels of stress hormones in our bodies. If you keep in mind that almost 90% of all illnesses are associated with stress and tension we hold in our body, laughter is an easy remedy, isn’t it? So there is some truth in the old saying: “Laughter is the best medicine” — well, at least it’s a start! Some people go to the gym first thing in the morning. If that’s not your thing, just keep in mind that laughter is an aerobic exercise (有氧运动) — probably with much more fun! ___19___ I could go on, but I’ll stop here. For more health benefits, check out the PubMed research database where you’ll find over 2, 600 references to laughter. ___20___ A. Just bring yourself an open mind. B. Laughter is also a great stress relief. C. If so, I have a possible solution for you! D. This is to support our oxygen intake even more. E. What’s more, laughter can be a natural pain killer. F. Or maybe you can simply join us for the next Mirthy class. G. Research found that ten minutes of laughter equals thirty minutes on the rowing machine. 【答案】16. C 17. E 18. B 19. G 20.

Otherwise否则；B. Still但是，尽管如此；C. Instead相反； D. Therefore因此。上文说有现实原因推迟学车，下文说还是有声音提醒自己“本该早就学车了”，前后是转折关系。 【31题详解】 考查名词。句意：随着我继续学习驾驶，并在每节课中不断进步，我意识到驾驶就像许多成就一样，并没有固定的时间表。A. timeline时间线；B. approach方法；C. system系统；D. structure结构。根据上文“Driving felt like a teenager’s thing, not something you began in your twenties”可知，一开始作者认为学车是青少年做的事，现在意识到开车和很多成就一样，并没有固定的时间限制。 【32题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这只是一个在最方便的时候达成的里程碑。A. urgent紧急的；B. valuable有价值的；C. helpless无助的；D. convenient方便的。根据上文“It’s just a milestone”以及上文提到作者因为现实原因推迟学车可知，这里强调时机的便利性，作者认为里程碑应该在最方便的时候达成。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：当一个人在人生某个阶段尚未完成社会认为必要的事情时，与同龄人进行比较，就会产生无能感。A. impressions印象；B. conflicts冲突；C. comparisons比较；D. relationships关系。根据下文“between peers when you haven’t done something”可知，作者认为无能感来自和同龄人比较。 【34题详解】 考查形容词。句意：同上。A. typical典型的；B. necessary必要的；C. fashionable时尚的；D. positive积极的。根据上文“Driving felt like a teenager’s thing”和语境可知，社会认为在人生某个阶段应该做的事，比如青少年时期学开车，这些事是被社会认为是必要的。 【35题详解】 考查动词。句意：学习新事物永远不应被视作太迟。A. framed表达，表述；B. accumulated积累；C. created创造；D. researched研究。结合上文内容，对比大对数人青少年时期学车，作者二十几岁才开始学车，由此感悟到学习新事物永远不应该被说成太晚，be framed as“被界定为”。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读短文内容，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Lately, all of us have seen Chinese people on TV in far-off places in the world, helping other countries to develop.

My mother, a medical doctor, ____37____ (assign) to work as a volunteer consultant in Tanzania. Honestly, when she first left, I was upset. We talked together, we spent our leisure time together, ____38____ except for school and work, we were never apart. So I was unhappy about her leaving ____39____ asking for my input. But then I began to sing a different tune after learning about her work in Tanzania, ____40____ country where people are likely ____41____ (contract) many diseases, rare in China. One project that my mother worked on was helping build a cardiac hospital.

Every year, the local high school held a science fair, and Emma had always placed high but never won first place. This year, she was determined to change that. Emma spent months working on her project, a study on renewable energy using algae (藻类). She recorded data, ran experiments, and even stayed up late into the night perfecting her presentation. Her parents often found her working at her laptop, surrounded by books and lab equipment. One evening, a week before the science fair, Emma was working on her project when her laptop screen suddenly went black. Panicked, she tried to restart it, but it was no use. All her data, notes, and the presentation were on that laptop, and she hadn’t backed up her files. Desperate, Emma took the laptop to the local repair shop. The technician told her it would take at least a week to recover the data, if it was even possible. Emma left the shop, feeling a sense of despair. How could she possibly recreate everything in just a few days? Returning home, she sat on her bed, fighting back tears. Her mind flashed back to a conversation she had had with her science teacher, Mr. Reynolds, earlier in the year. He told her the true test of a scientist was not in how they handled success, but in how they overcame failure and that innovation often came from the ability to adapt and persevere. Emma let Mr. Reynolds’ words sink in. She realized that this was her chance to prove herself — as a true scientist. Determined to make the best of her situation, she began to gather all the resources she still had. She found her handwritten notes, some scattered (散乱的) papers, and relied on her memory to recall key points of her research. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: Taking a deep breath, Emma decided to start over. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: After the fair, the winners were to be announced. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 Taking a deep breath, Emma decided to start over. She had her handwritten notes, some papers, and her memory. She could do this. The following week, Emma spent every waking hour reconstructing her project. The kitchen turned into a makeshift lab, notes scattered across the table. Her parents made sure she had snacks to keep her energy up. The night before the science fair, Emma finally finished her presentation. She knew it wasn’t as polished as her original, but she had done her best. At the science fair, Emma stood by her project, feeling a mix of nervousness and hope. As the judges made their rounds, she presented her findings with passion. After the fair, the winners were to be announced. Emma held her breath as they called out the names. When the first-place winner was called, it wasn’t her name. Disappointed but still proud of her efforts, Emma listened intently as they announced the second and third-place winners. To her surprise and joy, Emma was awarded third place. Her heart swelled with pride as she accepted her prize, knowing that despite the setbacks, she had proven her resilience and determination. This experience fueled Emma’s passion for science even more, inspiring her to continue pursuing her dreams with even greater determination and perseverance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述Emma Thompson作为爱荷华小镇的16岁学生，梦想成为科学家并决心在科学展览夺冠的经历。Emma努力研究藻类可再生能源，但科学展览前电脑黑屏导致数据丢失，使她陷入绝望。回想起老师的教诲，Emma决定克服失败，利用现有资源重新整理研究。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“深吸一口气，Emma决定重新开始。”可知，第一段可描写Emma重新开始她的项目的经过。 ②由第二段首句内容“博览会结束后，获胜者将被宣布。”可知，第二段可描写Emma获得的名词以及感悟。 2. 续写线索：重新开始——利用每一分钟——完成——参赛——获奖——感悟。 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①重建：reconstruct/rebuild ②完成：finish/complete ③接收：accept/receive 情绪类 ①紧张：nervousness/anxiety ②惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] At the science fair, Emma stood by her project, feeling a mix of nervousness and hope. .(运用了现在分词短语作状语) [高分句型2] Disappointed but still proud of her efforts, Emma listened intently as they announced the second and third-place winners.(运用了形容词短语作状语以及as引导的时间状语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
