On the first Saturday of December, Prescott hosts an annual Christmas Parade and Courthouse Lighting. Once it gets dark, you can gather around the Courthouse to watch the magical lights turn on to kick off the holiday season. Leavenworth, WA One of the most magical places to celebrate the spirit of Christmas is in the Bavarian-themed town of Leavenworth, WA. With over half a million Christmas lights, you are sure to be impressed. See St. Nikolas and visit the Leavenworth Reindeer farm when the reindeer are taking a break from flying practice. Reserve an afternoon sleigh ride or go sledding right on the hills along the main-street. Chicago, IL Chicago is one of the most festive US cities during Christmas. You can find many holiday activities and events including an authentic Christmas market, holiday light displays, and more. One of the top things to do is to visit Christkindlmarket where you can purchase decorations and gifts. Other fun activities include skating at outdoor skating rinks and riding on a Christmas-themed train. New York City New York City is one of the most iconic and magical Christmas cities in the USA. There are an endless number of Christmas festivities to partake in and sites to see. Some must-see attractions include the Rockefeller Center Christmas Tree and the light show across the street at Saks Fifth Avenue. Also located in midtown are the famous holiday window displays and building decorations. 21. Which city is recommended for sledding lovers? A. Prescott. B. Leavenworth. C. Chicago. D. New York City. 22. What do the listed places have in common? A. They have light displays. B. They host winter sports events. C. They have Christmas markets. D. They have holiday window displays. 23. Which section of a newspaper is this text most likely from? A. Business. B. Sports. C. Nature. D. Travel. B Two friends are seated in a busy restaurant. They acknowledge it has been “too long” since they last caught up. Then a tense silence follows. One friend asks, “So, how are you?” Such a simple question weighs heavily on the other. She forces a smile and replies, “I’m fine. How are you?” The strange part is that she doesn’t say it intentionally. “Fine” seems to arrive on its own before she even questions if it’s true. For many of us, being “fine” is a reflex (本能反应), like pulling our hands back from something hot before we feel the pain. This behavioral pattern sticks because it works, at least on a surface level. It keeps the childhood dinner table calm, or a boss from further asking personal questions. “Fine” creates a boundary without us having to voice the need for space. There is a trade-off, of course. “I’m fine” isn’t so much a lie. Rather, it’s a stand-in for something more authentic (真实的) and complicated. Often we lack the time, safety or language to name what is under “fine”. The reflex to be “fine” becomes so automatic that rarely does anyone get a real answer, including ourselves. This “I’m fine” reflex is seldom built in a single event. Instead it’s incubated in moments when “fine” keeps things working: with easily stressed parents, or in a household where no one truly cares to listen when asking “how are you”. None of the exchanges has to be dramatic to leave a mark; enough repetition tells the nervous system that honesty here is unsafe or unwanted. Fortunately, once identified, the reflex can be changed — just a brief pause (暂停) before saying “fine”. In that pause, you don’t even have to voice the truth to break the habit; start simply by noticing the gap between the automatic answer and the real one. Then start with one low-pressure person, like a friend, to practise honest replies before opening up to others. 24. Why does the author mention the two friends in paragraph 1? A. To share communication skills. B. To give a reason for small talk. C. To introduce a response pattern. D. To illustrate the safe social distance. 25. What can we infer about the “I’m fine” reflex? A. It allows people some personal space. B. It is a white lie meant to hide bad moods. C. It does more harm than good in daily life. D. It efficiently expresses complicated emotions. 26. What does the underlined word “incubated” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Hidden. B. Replaced. C. Developed. D. Discovered. 27. What is suggested in the last paragraph? A. Questioning the honesty of others. B. Sharing pressure with trusted friends. C. Avoiding simple answers in conversations. D. Examining automatic replies before speaking. C Recently, the Solvia ED AI Binoculars (双筒望远镜), created by Shenzhen-based Matatalab, is an all-in-one outdoor tool that redefines what a telescope can do. Launched on Kickstarter, it quickly exploded onto global trending lists, celebrated by overseas users as a “game-changer” and “absolute legend” for integrating high-end optics (光学), real-time photography, and instant AI recognition into one portable device and dominating tech discussions across TikTok, Twitter, and international forums. Unlike common telescopes, this signature product with AI technology solves the age-old problem of “can see but can’t shoot.” It can help users watch clearly, take high-quality photos and videos easily, and recognize different living things at the same time, without switching devices, manual focus or delay. What users see through the telescope is recorded at once without any delay. Besides, built-in AI image stabilization, and low-light enhancement ensure excellent shots even in challenging conditions. Wi-Fi lets you instantly share photos / videos to your phone or social media. Trained on over 100 GB of wildlife data, the binoculars identifies more than 10,000 species of birds, plants, and wildlife in one second with 98% accuracy. It is very helpful for nature lovers, hikers and students. Even beginners instantly become nature experts, with species information popping up on the connected phone app. The product is light and easy to carry, and it works well in different outdoor situations. But this isn’t just a small device — it’s a tremendous shift in outdoor exploration. By combining “see + shoot + identify” in one device, it turns casual observers into documentarians and nature lovers into instant experts. As one foreign blogger put it, “This isn’t just a telescope. It’s a pocket naturalist and a high-end camera rolled into one — absolutely legendary.” This creative invention has become a new example of how Chinese products surprise the world. 28. What has made the Shenzhen AI telescope famous abroad? A. Its low price. B. Its large size. C. Its multiple functions. D. Its eye-catching appearance. 29. What is an advantage the AI telescope has over the previous ones? A. It can be easily carried outdoors. B. It can be used only in good weather. C. It can record the view in real time. D. It can work without Internet access. 30. What does the underlined word “documentarians” mean? A. Those who enjoy watching documentary. B. Those who are fond of going outdoors. C. Those who have great passion for nature. D. Those who specialize in recording life. 31. From which is the passage probably taken? A. A news report. B. A science fiction. C. A survey paper. D. An academic essay. D Decision fatigue (决策疲劳) is a psychological phenomenon where the quality of decisions declines after a long session of decision-making. It is caused by the limited mental energy we have for making choices each day. While many of us believe we are logical beings capable of weighing every option carefully, decision fatigue shows how our mental resources can be used up over time. One of the key studies on this phenomenon was conducted in the context of parole hearings (假释听证会). Researchers found that judges were more likely to approve of parole early in the day or after a meal break. As the day progressed and the judges made more decisions, they were increasingly likely to maintain their previous decisions, denying parole simply because it required less mental effort. Decision fatigue not only affects major life choices but also everyday decisions. For instance, people often report struggling to decide what to eat for dinner after a long day. Similarly, too many choices, such as when looking through streaming platforms or online stores, can leave individuals feeling confused, leading them to abandon the process entirely or settle for a less satisfying option. To overcome decision fatigue, some well-known figures have adopted strategies to simplify their daily routines. For example, Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg is famous for wearing the same style of gray T-shirts to minimize unnecessary choices. Similarly, Nobel Prize-winning physicist Albert Einstein was known for owing multiple identical suits to avoid wasting energy on deciding what to wear each day. In a different context, author Haruki Murakami has shared that he maintains a strict daily routine, including specific writing hours and exercise, to free up mental capacity for his creative work. Understanding decision fatigue can help us structure our lives more effectively. Prioritizing important decisions earlier in the day or setting up routines to minimize unnecessary choices are strategies to preserve mental energy. By managing our mental resources wisely, we can make sound decisions and reduce the stress associated with overwhelming choices. 32. What leads to decision fatigue according to the text? A. The lack of time to make decisions. B. The difficulty of making logical choices. C. The stress from making important decisions. D. The limited mental energy for decision-making. 33. What does the study on parole hearings reveal? A. Judges are much stricter after long breaks. B. Decision fatigue can lead to unfair outcomes. C. Fatigue causes judges to avoid complicated cases. D. External factors have no impact on decision-making. 34. What does the author suggest readers shopping online do? A. Make quick decisions. B. Compare different products. C. Limit the number of choices. D. Choose the most popular products. 35. What is the purpose of adopting routines? A. To reduce the stress of daily work. B. To increase decision-making quality. C. To enhance overall life satisfaction. D. To create more decision-making chances 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。 Four Things You Must Know About College Degrees Are you getting ready to begin college, to head back to school after a few years off, or are you just exploring your options? 36 Here’s a quick overview of several key facts that will serve you well as you aim for an education certificate. Online study can save you big bucks. In modern society, it’s becoming easier to attend school online. If you choose a school’s online program, it’s possible to save as much as 50 percent over in-person. 37 Be aware that institutions that offer online study sometimes have a more limited range of courses and majors for those e-degree programs. Check if your desired subjects are part of the e-curriculum. 38 Getting your degree and paying for it are two completely different challenges. That’s why it’s essential to get financing arranged before you choose your college or pick your major. If you don’t have the money situation taken care of, schools simply won’t let you begin the coursework. The good news is that you can take out a student loan from a private lender and get the entire payment issue resolved quickly. Do career research before choosing a major. It’s important to choose a major that has realistic job prospects for graduates. You might love art history or linguistic philosophy. 39 Accounting, IT, advertising and engineering are all sensible choices. Ask the school administrators what their most popular majors are, what job placement rates are, and whether they offer internships for seniors in their fields of study. Concentrate on application essays. When you fill out applications for the schools that interest you, don’t just rush through the paperwork. Some of it is merely standard, fill-in-the-blank information. 40 You’ll need to be careful when filling out these kinds of items as admissions offices tend to focus on your essay, scores on standardized tests, grades, and job history. A. Arrange financing first. B. Work while earning a degree. C. Therefore, spend at least one hour on each essay. D. But most applications usually contain at least one essay-type question. E. If so, it’s important to know a few of the basic facts about modern-day degrees. F. So, unless you have some special reason for attending in person, weigh all your choices. G. However, unless you aim to restrict your career to teaching, check out more practical majors. 第三部分 语言运用 完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last spring, my grandmother gave me a small box of tomato seeds. “Plant them in the yard,” she said, “and you’ll have your own tomatoes in summer.” I was 41 and couldn’t wait to start.

It was about a super heroine who fought the enemies of the Earth. When the bell rang, the friends quickly greeted the postman and grabbed the envelope from his hand. Mia opened it and surprisingly found a letter from the publisher. She read, “Dear readers, we’re sorry to inform you that the comic series, Galatia Woman, has been discontinued.” Both of them looked up in horror. Their favourite comic, which they had been reading since they were twelve, had been cancelled! Losing the comic felt like losing a part of themselves. They couldn’t sit around and do nothing. The next morning, they found the writer’s address printed inside the comic and decided to find the writer, Lekha. When they knocked at the door, a girl slightly older than them opened it. After introducing themselves, the girls were astonished to find it was Lekha herself. Still in astonishment, the girls couldn’t wait to ask Lekha what would happen next in the story. Lekha let out a deep sigh and explained she could not tell them because she was completely stuck. Upon hearing this, the girls’ hearts sank with disappointment. Even so, they still voiced the question that had been weighing on their minds: Why didn’t Galatia seek help from her knights (骑士) to defeat the enemies? Lekha insisted firmly that the heroine herself was powerful enough and didn’t need any help. “But I can’t even imagine stepping out of my house without my friends. Everyone needs a friend or someone to rely on,” Prisha spoke up. “I … never had any friends. That’s why I wanted Galatia to fight alone and never need help,” Lekha said weakly. Mia seemed to realize something. She spoke softly, “Perhaps we could become your friends and help you continue the story.” Hearing this, Lekha fell silent and then nodded slowly. 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: Over the next few hours, the kids worked out various storylines. ____________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A month later, Mia and Prisha received the latest comic titled Galatia with Two Knights. _________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 兰州市第五十一中学2027届高三10月阶段性测试卷参考答案 英语 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B B A C C C B B A A 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 A B C A A B C C B C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B A D C A C D C C D 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 A D B C B E F A G D 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 A C B B C A B C A D 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 C A B A D 语法填空： 56. to find 57. increasingly 58. recognised/recognized 59. competition 60. has been 61. from 62. which 63. countries 64. an 65. and 66．范文 应用文写作 Should Community Service be a Requirement for Graduation? Recently, our school English newspaper is carrying out a discussion about whether community service should be a requirement for graduation. Different students have different views. And my view is that community service should be included in the requirement for graduation. (个人观点) Community service is a good bridge between society and students. Firstly, it helps students develop a sense of social responsibility. By engaging in service activities, we learn to care for others and contribute to society. Secondly, community service enhances practical skills such as teamwork, communication, and problem-solving, which are essential for future careers. Lastly, it fosters a sense of accomplishment and boosts self-confidence, promoting personal growth. In conclusion, it is not only necessary but also essential. Making community service mandatory benefits both students and society, making it a valuable criterion for graduation. 读后续写 One possible version Paragraph 1: Over the next few hours, the kids worked out various storylines. In these plots, Galatia no longer fought alone but turned to her knights for help. As the discussion went on, Lekha gradually realized that Galatia did need others’ support to defeat the enemies, just as Mia and Prisha had helped her keep the comic going. They laughed and brainstormed together, and fresh inspiration flooded into Lekha’s mind. Eventually, they shaped a satisfying plot. Grateful for their creative ideas, Lekha thanked the girls sincerely. By the time Mia and Prisha waved goodbye, the three had become real friends. Paragraph 2: Weeks later, the friends received the latest comic titled Galatia with Two Knights. Wild excitement swept over them the moment they saw the comic. When they opened it, to their great surprise, the knights’ names were Mia and Prisha! It was they who helped Galatia break out of the enemies’ prison, restore her superpowers and finally save the Earth! They rushed to Lekha’s home, where she gave them a warm welcome. They talked excitedly about the plot they had created together. Thanks to the comic, Lekha gained precious friends and learned that true friendship was the most magical power in life. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 兰州市第五十一中学2027届高三10月阶段性测试试卷 英语听力录音稿 Text 1 M: One cheesecake, please. W: We can give you a discount if you buy two, sir. Sixteen dollars for two, which only costs six dollars more than just buying one. M: No, thanks. I just need one. Text 2 M: You have one more week here before you get transferred to the Chicago office. W: I’ve already organized all the files. I fully intend to use this time to clean up the office before I leave. Text 3 M: I’ve found the perfect Mother’s Day present. It’s a beautiful necklace, but I can’t afford $300. W: Well, jewelry is a timeless gift. But you don’t have to break the bank to show Mom love. Text 4 W: I don’t think I’ll need a master’s degree in economics. Just a bachelor’s degree should be enough for most jobs. M: You’ve come this far in your education, and you might as well take the next step. Then you can join the world of work. Text 5 M: You finally got on the line! Where are you, Sarah? I’ve been waiting for you for 30 minutes. W: I’m almost there! The bus station is only one lock away. M: All right, but I think it’s going to rain. I’ll wait for you in the mall. Text 6 W: Are you close to finishing that, honey? M: Far from it. I still need at least two hours. W: You should talk to your boss someday. He can’t always give you tasks when you’re off work. M: Yeah. I’ll talk to him someday, honey. W: Anyway, our neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Smith, are still waiting for us to go to the theater together. M: Sorry, I’m afraid I can’t go with you and our kids this time. The sales report is needed for tomorrow’s meeting. I have to finish it. Text 7 W: Would you like to eat out with me after work? We haven’t grabbed a bite together since we finished that big projec last week. M: Oh, I’d love to, but my family is throwing a party for my grandma’s 96th birthday. I need to go back for it. W: 96th birthday? She must lead a very healthy life. M: Ha … not really. She likes to eat meat, and she seldom goes outdoors to exercise. I think her secret is her optimistic attitude — she always smiles at life. W: And life smiles back at her. Mental health is really important. Please give your grandma my regards. M: Thanks, I will. Oh, it has started raining outside. The boss just let us off 15 minutes early today. We don’t have to wait until 5:30 to get off work. We can leave right now. Are you leaving? W: Ashley said she would come to pick me up in half an hour, so I’ll just wait here. Text 8 W : How is this new “ smart bin “ different from a regular recycling bin ? M : It’s not just a container; it’s an AI-powered sorting system. Inside, a camera identifies the material of each item you throw in-plastic, paper, metal-and then a mechanical arm sorts the item into the correct section. W : Isn’t that a bit unnecessary? And what if it makes a mistake ? M : Actually, its accuracy rate is over 99%, far better than human sorting. The real benefit is the data. It sends real-time information to the management company. W : What’s the point of that data ? M : It allows for super-efficient collection routes. Instead of sending out trucks on a fixed schedule, they only dispatch them when a specific bin is nearly full. This saves fuel, reduces traffic, and cuts down on carbon emissions significantly. W : So the intelligence isn’t just for sorting, but for improving the entire collection process. M : Exactly. It’s a small part of building a smarter, more sustainable city. Text 9 W: Good evening, everyone! Our guest is Kevin Olsen. Kevin works on the coast. His job is to rescue whales, fish, and seabirds when they get into trouble with pollution. Welcome to the program, Kevin. M: Glad to be here, thank you. W: What do you do in your job ? M: I spend a lot of time with sea animals, trying to learn what things they need in the environment. If we know that, we can help them survive in the future. W: Can you tell us something about the disaster a short time ago? M: OK. What happened recently was the oil disaster. The birds had oil on their wings, so they couldn’t fly. And they couldn’t eat the fish because the fish were covered with oil. W: Why did you choose this job? It seems quite tough, especially since you often have to work outdoors in difficult conditions. M: Well, I was always interested in the world of the ocean and how the plants and animals fit together in their system. W: Thank you for coming and sharing your story with our audience, Kevin. M: My pleasure. Text 10 M: Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. This is Mark Harris here with this week’s weather report. Although we thought we were in the clear after a week of dry weather, there’s a huge storm coming in from the east. We should expect heavy snowfall by tomorrow morning. Temperatures should drop below ten degrees, so be careful when going outside. If you have to go out, dress warmly and don’t go too far from home.
