The Barcelona hit wasn’t part of the team for Euro 2024, but he did win an Olympic gold medal that same summer and is now a key member, despite his tender age. His ability on the ball is essential for the way the team plays. Son Heung-min South Korea/Forward Born: July 8, 1992 Current team: Los Angeles FC Date joined: 2025 Surely the greatest player in the history of South Korean football, Son Heung-min has the chance to enjoy one final blast at the highest level. After leaving Tottenham to join Los Angeles FC in the MLS last summer, the explosive forward has become accustomed to conditions and is a hero with the local South Korean community. With his big-game experience, lasting quality and in-game intelligence, he is more than capable of inspiring the Asian Tigers to big results. Antony Brazil/Winger Born: Feb. 24, 2000 Current team: Real Betis Date joined: 2025 Having struggled to meet expectations at Manchester United, Antony has rebuilt his career at Real Betis, and he now looks set to return to the international fold to provide some extra magic for Brazil. Playing on the right-hand side, the 26-year-old has a magical left foot and a sharp eye for goal, and he’s able to link with teammates and unlock defenses. There are bigger names, but Antony will be a dangerous and unpredictable option if called upon. Jeremy Doku Belgium/Midfielder Born: May 27, 2002 Current team: Manchester City Date joined: 2023 Jeremy Doku enters the World Cup after what many consider to be a breakout season with Manchester City, where he became a regular in Pep Guardiola’s side and showed his tremendous quality on countless occasions. With incredible speed and an eye for a pass, the Belgium star is ready to make a huge impact. Belgium boss Rudi Garcia is likely to lean on him in attack, and he will surely deliver. 1. What can we learn about Pau Cubarsi? A. He joined FC Barcelona in the year 2023. B. He was a member of Spain’s team for Euro 2024. C. He is a forward with excellent ball control ability. D. He won an Olympic gold medal in the summer of 2024. 2. Who is the oldest player mentioned in the text? A. Pau Cubarsi. B. Son Heung-min. C. Antony. D. Jeremy Doku. 3. The passage is most probably intended for ___________. A. coaches who are training national football teams B. journalists who are reporting on basketball matches C. football fans who are interested in the 2026 World Cup D. students who are studying abroad 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍的是2026年世界杯四位球员的基本信息，包括国籍、位置、出生日期、所属球队及各自特点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Pau Cubarsi部分“The Barcelona hit wasn’t part of the team for Euro 2024, but he did win an Olympic gold medal that same summer and is now a key member, despite his tender age. (这位巴塞罗那新星没有参加2024年欧洲杯的球队阵容，但他在同一个夏天赢得了一枚奥运金牌，尽管年纪尚轻，现在已是关键成员。)”可知，Pau Cubarsi在2024年夏天赢得了一枚奥运金牌。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据四位球员的出生日期：Pau Cubarsi (2007年1月22日)、Son Heung-min (1992年7月8日)、Antony (2000年2月24日)、Jeremy Doku (2002年5月27日)可知，Son Heung-min出生于1992年，是四位球员中年龄最大的。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，尤其是文章标题“2026 World Cup Players (2026年世界杯球员)”，文章详细介绍了四位即将参加2026年世界杯的球员信息，因此本文最可能是为对2026年世界杯感兴趣的足球球迷准备的。 B Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their heritage. Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. Last fall, my youngest son recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool. His voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones. 4. What do we know about the author as a child? A. She travelled between two countries when young. B. She was brought up in an all-English environment. C. She once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture. D. She was attracted to Chinese traditional festivals the most. 5. How did the author teach her children Mandarin? A. Talking about her daily routine. B. Sending them to a Chinese teacher. C. Buying them ancient Chinese storybooks. D. Taking advantage of Chinese language media. 6. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Ambitious. B. Devoted. C. Proud. D. Optimistic. 7. What lesson can be learnt from this article? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Great minds think alike. D. Language bridges generations. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了身为华裔二代移民的作者从小在美国长大，逐渐疏远中华文化，后来决心教自己的孩子学习普通话，借助日常言传、中文媒体与图书馆中文读物传承语言与文化，并从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture.(但随着年龄增长，中国元素逐渐淡出了我的生活。虽然我每逢春节都开心地收下红包，在中秋节时享用月饼，却不再感受到与这种文化的联系)”可知，作者曾经失去了对中国文化的归属感。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media-from books to television shows to music-made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination.(育儿书籍建议在和孩子玩耍时描述自己的动作，于是我开始在每次活动中重新翻出那些早已被遗忘的词语：“球”“吃”“睡”“玩”。然而，随着练习的进行，我的汉语水平差距变得越来越明显。幸运的是，中文媒体易获取、随处可得——从书籍、电视剧到音乐——让学习变得容易多了。当他们渐渐长大后，我带他们去了当地图书馆，那里孙悟空和嫦娥传说立刻激发了他们的想象力)”可知，作者利用中文媒体教孩子普通话。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin.(在我孩子出生之前，我就已经决定要教他们汉语了)”及文章第三段描述作者如何利用中文媒体教孩子们普通话的经历可知，作者为了让孩子传承母语，主动重拾自己早已生疏的普通话，借助各类资源坚持教孩子中文，付出了大量时间精力，是非常用心投入的，devoted（投入的、尽心的）最符合对她的描述。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones.(几十年前，我的中文老师向我解释过，月亮连接着所有追寻其光芒的人，无论他们相隔多远。语言也是如此，它影响着文化与历史，并将后代与过去联系在一起)”可知，作者教自己的孩子学习普通话，从孩子能用中文交流、背诵古诗中感受到语言跨越时空、联结世代与文化的力量可知，文章主旨是语言与文化能够跨越时空、联结人们。 C The roar of late-night traffic is not just annoying for those trying to sleep. It can also have profound effects on their health. A pioneering new study, published this month, has found a clear link between road noise and Parkinson’s disease. The research, which followed more than 3 million Danish participants, found a modest but consistent effect: for every 11.5dB (分贝) rise in noise level, the risk of the worsening disorder rose by 3% over the 18-year study. The study adds to the growing body of evidence that auditory bother is associated with serious physical consequences. The European Environment Agency reported last year that more than 110 million people across the continent suffer high levels of health-damaging noise pollution, with physiological stress and sleep disturbance leading to 66,000 early deaths annually as well as heart disease, diabetes and depression. It found that the harm caused was greater than from secondhand tobacco smoke exposure. However, noise is not an uncontrollable part of city life. China’s official statistics suggests significant improvements there in the last decade. That’s not just down to the rise of electric vehicles, declining construction and closures of loud venues. Authorities have also installed sound barriers and laid tens of millions of square metres of quieter road surfacing. Improved engineering and even lower speed limits can bring benefits. Sound insulation (隔音设施) for homes and reliance on noise-cancelling headphones should be a last resort. One of the subtler consequences of auditory pollution is not what it imposes on us, but what it takes away. Animals and even plants are acutely sensitive to loud noises and can be damaged by them. Traffic noise drowns out the rustling of trees. Those who learn to tune out what’s around them no longer mind the birdsong. Not all noise is unwelcome. But we should do more to address the sounds that bring misery, not least so that we can experience those that bring joy. 8. What does noise pollution result in based on the European Environment Agency? A. Worsening hearing disorder. B. An uncontrollable consequence. C. 66,000 early deaths every month. D. A worse damage than secondhand tobacco smoke. 9. What can we infer about China’s efforts to reduce noise pollution? A. Authorities have taken effective measures. B. The closure of loud venues is ineffective. C. The rise of electric vehicles is the key factor. D. Noise pollution in China has been controlled. 10. Why does the author mention animals and plants? A. To show that noise pollution affects their living surroundings. B. To explain that traffic noise has a hidden harmful effect. C. To call on people to protect animals and plants from noise. D. To prove that animals and plants are more sensitive than humans. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Birdsong: A Hidden Threat to Health B. Sound insulation: A Solution to Traffic Noise C. Noise Pollution: A Bother to Health D. China’s Progress: A Model to Address Noise Pollution 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍道路交通噪声危害人体健康，对比相关数据，并列举治理噪声污染可采取的各类可行举措。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The European Environment Agency reported last year that more than 110 million people across the continent suffer high levels of health-damaging noise pollution, with physiological stress and sleep disturbance leading to 66,000 early deaths annually as well as heart disease, diabetes and depression. It found that the harm caused was greater than from secondhand tobacco smoke exposure. (欧洲环境署去年报告称，全欧洲有超过1.1亿人遭受有损健康的高强度噪音污染，生理压力与睡眠障碍每年造成66000例早逝，还会引发心脏病、糖尿病和抑郁症。该机构发现，噪音带来的危害大于二手烟暴露造成的危害。)”可知，噪音污染造成的危害比二手烟更严重。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“However, noise is not an uncontrollable part of city life. China’s official statistics suggests significant improvements there in the last decade. That’s not just down to the rise of electric vehicles, declining construction and closures of loud venues. Authorities have also installed sound barriers and laid tens of millions of square metres of quieter road surfacing.(然而噪音并非城市生活无法控制的一部分。中国官方数据显示过去十年噪声状况大幅改善。这不仅源于电动汽车普及、建筑施工减少和吵闹场所关停，政府还安装隔音屏障，铺设数千万平方米低噪音路面。)”可知，政府采取了多项行之有效的治理措施。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“One of the subtler consequences of auditory pollution is not what it imposes on us, but what it takes away. Animals and even plants are acutely sensitive to loud noises and can be damaged by them.(噪音污染一种较为隐蔽的后果不在于它直接施加给我们的伤害，而在于它夺走的东西。动物甚至植物对巨大噪音十分敏感，并且会因此受到伤害。)”可知，作者提及动植物，是为说明交通噪音存在隐蔽的负面影响。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“The roar of late-night traffic is not just annoying for those trying to sleep. It can also have profound effects on their health. A pioneering new study, published this month, has found a clear link between road noise and Parkinson’s disease. (深夜车流的轰鸣声，对想要入睡的人而言不只是恼人。它还会对人们的健康产生深远影响。本月发表的一项开创性新研究发现，道路噪音与帕金森病之间存在明确关联。)”可知，文章围绕噪音污染展开，既阐述噪音对人类健康带来多重伤害，也介绍了相应治理办法，所以“Noise Pollution: A Bother to Health(噪音污染：健康的一大困扰)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 D For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ. According to this view, once the brain reached its full developmental potential in early adulthood, its neural connections were fixed. This opinion held that the brain, like a muscle that reaches its maximum size, could not adapt or change after a certain point. However, the discovery of neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has fundamentally altered our understanding of the brain. We now know that the brain is a dynamic, ever-changing organ that continues to reorganize itself in response to new experiences, learning and challenges. A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action. Taxi drivers in London must memorize a vast network of streets and landmarks in a test known as “The Knowledge.” Brain scans revealed that the posterior hippocampus — the area of the brain responsible for spatial memory — was significantly larger in these drivers than in the general population. More interestingly, the longer a driver had been on the job, the more pronounced the changes in this area of the brain, suggesting that the brain physically adapts to intense mental activity. However, neuroplasticity is a double-edged sword. While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits. For instance, constant multitasking and excessive consumption of short-form content, such as quick social media videos, can train the brain to have a shorter attention span, making it harder to engage in focused, deep work. The implications of this discovery are profound. We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions. This means we have more agency over our cognitive health than we ever realized. Lifelong learning, mental stimulation, and even unlearning unhealthy habits are not just cultural ideals, but they are biological necessities for maintaining a tough, sharp mind throughout life. 12. What is the previous view of the adult brain? A. It is capable of lifelong development. B. It is reshaped by learning and training. C. It is highly responsive to daily habits. D. It is largely unchanged after maturity. 13. How does the author support the idea of neuroplasticity? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By comparing methods. C. By presenting a case study. D. By describing an experiment. 14. What does the underlined word “rewired” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fixed. B. Simplified. C. Adjusted. D. Destroyed. 15. What does the author argue in the last paragraph? A. Daily habits greatly shape our minds. B. People can’t control cognitive health. C. Mental health depends fully on genes. D. Lifelong learning is far from a necessity. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了人们过去认为成年后大脑结构固定不变，但神经可塑性的发现推翻了该观点，借助伦敦出租车司机的研究佐证大脑可随经历发生生理改变，同时神经可塑性利弊并存，日常习惯会重塑大脑，终身学习等是保持大脑敏锐的生理需要。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ.(多年来，科学家们一直认为成年大脑是不会发生变化的器官。)”可知，以往观点认为大脑成熟后基本不会发生改变。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action.(一项针对伦敦出租车司机的里程碑式研究为现实中的神经可塑性提供了有力证据。)”可知，作者通过列举伦敦出租车司机的案例研究来佐证神经可塑性。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits.(大脑既可以被rewired以产生积极效果，也会被不良习惯所塑造。)”可知，rewired和后文shaped含义相近，意为“调整、重塑”。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions.(我们现在知道大脑不是固定不变的器官，而是可变的，持续受到我们日常习惯和行为的影响。)”可知，作者提出日常习惯在很大程度上塑造我们的大脑。 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Putting things off costs a lot. One study published in 2013 ranked 22,053 people on a procrastination (拖延) scale of one to five. Each increase of one point was associated with a drop of nearly $15,000 in annual earnings. A study of 3,525 Swedish university students published in 2023 also found that procrastinators more likely to suffer anxiety, stress and loneliness. ____16____ ____17____ One set is known as mental contrasting with implementation intentions (MCII). Popularised in a number of smartphone apps, the idea is simple: picture the benefits of achieving a goal; contrast that image with the main obstacle; and picture a strategy to overcome it. In two randomised trials reported in 2020 undergraduates were given online MCII exercises designed to reduce the delaying of bedtime, which research has linked to procrastination in general. They missed their intended bedtimes by around 38 minutes less each night than those in a control group given advice about healthy sleeping habits. Exercise shows promise too. A Chinese trial published in March assessed procrastination in 77 male teenagers. They were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of strength training, high-intensity interval training, or a combination of the two. ____18____ An earlier study of 564 Chinese university students found that the most physically active also procrastinated less. The researchers speculated that overcoming the stress gave them a “sense of mastery” that boosted confidence and motivation. These days, opportunities for procrastination are greater than before. Many people work from home, out of the boss’s sight. ____19____ In one review published in 2022, each of the 18 studies assessed linked excessive scrolling (滚屏) to procrastination. ____20____ Lack of sleep blocks executive function, leading to more failures of self-regulation. It would be helpful if the scientists involved could stop procrastination. A. Mental exercises appear to help. B. Smartphones often delay bedtime, too. C. Smartphones offer endless distractions. D. Here are some ways to stop procrastinating. E. Then there is the question of diet and other habits. F. They showed “significant reductions” in putting things off. G. Procrastinators are more likely to delay medical treatment. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. F 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍拖延带来的各类危害，同时列举能够改善拖延的有效方法。 【16题详解】 根据上文“One study published in 2013 ranked 22,053 people on a procrastination (拖延) scale of one to five. Each increase of one point was associated with a drop of nearly $15,000 in annual earnings. A study of 3,525 Swedish university students published in 2023 also found that procrastinators more likely to suffer anxiety, stress and loneliness.(2013年发表的一项研究对22053人进行1‑5分的拖延测评。分数每升高1分，年收入就会减少近15000美元。2023年一项针对3525名瑞典大学生的研究也发现，拖延者更容易焦虑、有压力以及感到孤独。)”可知，本段一直在列举拖延造成的种种不良后果，本空需要继续补充拖延带来的危害。D选项“Here are some ways to stop procrastinating.(以下是一些克服拖延的方法。)”继第一段先讲拖延的危害：收入下降、焦虑、压力、孤独。接下来文章转入“如何解决拖延”，引出下文的方法介绍。故选D。 【17题详解】 根据下文“One set is known as mental contrasting with implementation intentions (MCII). Popularised in a number of smartphone apps, the idea is simple: picture the benefits of achieving a goal; contrast that image with the main obstacle; and picture a strategy to overcome it.(其中一种方法叫作心理对照加执行意图（MCII），在多款手机应用中广为流传，原理很简单：想象实现目标的好处，将该设想和主要阻碍做对比，并设想克服阻碍的对策。)”可知，下文具体介绍一种心理层面的改善方法，本空总起本段，引出心理练习对改善拖延有帮助。A选项“Mental exercises appear to help.(心理练习似乎能够起到作用。)”总领本段内容，和后文MCII心理方法形成总分对应关系。 【18题详解】 根据上文“A Chinese trial published in March assessed procrastination in 77 male teenagers. They were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of strength training, high‑intensity interval training, or a combination of the two.(三月份发表的一项中国试验对77名男性青少年的拖延情况展开评估。受试者被随机分为三组，分别接受12周力量训练、高强度间歇训练或是两种训练结合。)”可知，此处介绍运动干预的实验设置，空格处应填写该实验得到的实验结果。F选项“They showed “significant reductions” in putting things off.(他们在拖延行为上出现了“显著下降”。)”中代词They指代上文中参与实验的77名男性青少年，交代实验得出的积极结果，衔接上下文。 【19题详解】 根据上文“These days, opportunities for procrastination are greater than before. Many people work from home, out of the boss’s sight.(如今，诱发拖延的机会比以往更多。很多人居家办公，不在老板的监督之下。)”以及下文“In one review published in 2022, each of the 18 studies assessed linked excessive scrolling (滚屏) to procrastination.(2022年一篇综述表明，所分析的18项研究全部证明过度刷手机和拖延存在关联。)”可知，上下文说明当下容易出现拖延的外部诱因，下文关键词excessive scrolling对应手机带来的干扰。C选项“Smartphones offer endless distractions.(手机带来无穷无尽的干扰因素。)”承上启下，引出后文刷手机造成拖延的相关论述。 【20题详解】 根据下文“Lack of sleep blocks executive function, leading to more failures of self‑regulation.(睡眠不足会抑制执行功能，进一步造成更多自我管控失效。)”可知，空格内容应当引出睡眠相关话题。B选项“Smartphones often delay bedtime, too.(手机往往也会推迟就寝时间。)”衔接上文中手机带来的干扰，引出手机导致睡觉时间延后，顺理成章过渡到后面对睡眠不足危害的讲解，逻辑连贯。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In 1986, Hamburg and Shanghai became sister cities, ____21____ cultural exchanges that soon reached local high schools, offering Chinese language classes and student exchange programs. Young Kaehler, who had enjoyed adventure novels as a child and dreamed of ____22____ unknown lands, saw her ____23____. At 17, in 1990, she set foot in Shanghai for the first time. Bicycles far outnumbered cars on the streets. ____24____ by the local flavor, she ignored the familiar Western architecture and spent her ____25____ film roll on the local architecture. That short exchange planted a seed. After university, she officially launched her career in China in 1990, starting in Guangdong, then ____26____ Shanghai for a full 15 years from 2000. In 2016, she relocated to Qingdao, choosing her father’s birthday — 4 January — as moving day. It was a private ____27____ to the man who had always encouraged her wanderlust. Kaehler left home at 20 to study 500 kilometers away, so she learned early that home is less about a ____28____ place and more about stability, purpose and human warmth.

He had just finished trying out for Oakwood High School’s basketball team, and he knew making it to the team was a pretty sure thing. After all, he wasn’t just good — he was excellent. Basketball ran in the family — his older brother Reggie was now playing at a top college, and Mark was expected to follow in his brother’s footsteps. But Mark had a secret: his heart was in another sport. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mark jumped on a bus heading home. Through the window, his eyes were drawn to the field where cheerleaders (啦啦队) danced effortlessly. He couldn’t look away. For months now, cheerleading had been on his mind. Reaching into his bookbag, he pulled out a poster: CHEERLEADER AUDITIONS (选拔). This was what he really wanted. Mark knew pursuing cheerleading wouldn’t just be a physical challenge. His family had poured so much hope into his basketball future. But he was tired of living in his brother’s shadow. He was ready to carve his own path. Six months ago, Mark once told his best friend Darren about his dream. “Cheerleading is girly,” Darren said. “You’re so good at basketball. Why throw that away?” Mark stood his ground. “This is where I want to put my strength,” he insisted. Over time, Darren began to understand and support him. Still, Mark kept his passion hidden from his family. Secretly, Mark trained with two cheerleaders. Cheerleading didn’t come naturally — every move demanded more than basketball ever had. But month by month, he improved. Maybe, just maybe, he stood a chance of making it to the cheerleading team. But right now, after his basketball tryout, he had to face his family. As soon as Mark arrived home, his parents were at the door. “So …?” his father asked. “The tryout? It went well.” Mark replied, staring at his feet. Everyone in the family was smiling … except Mark. 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。 Still, he knew what had to be done. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, it was time for the cheerleader audition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Version 1: Still, he knew what had to be done. Gathering courage, Mark announced, “I don’t want to play basketball anymore.” The smiles on his parents’ faces froze instantly. “What do you mean?” his father asked in surprise. Taking a deep breath, Mark explained that his true passion was cheerleading although he was good at basketball. The room fell silent. His parents exchanged confused looks, struggling to understand. Mark felt his heart pounding but continued, saying he had been training for months. Just when the tension seemed unbearable, his mother finally spoke gently, “If this is what you really love, you deserve a chance — and we’ll always stand by you.” His father hesitated, then nodded slowly. A week later, it was time for the cheerleader audition. Standing on the field, Mark felt a mix of nervousness and excitement. Remembering the countless hours of practice, he pushed aside his doubts and focused on every move. When the music started, he jumped, turned and lifted with confidence. His strength and determination impressed the judges and the crowd. When the results were announced, Mark heard his name among those selected. At that moment, he spotted his parents in the stands, clapping proudly. He realized that by following his heart, he had finally stepped out of his brother’s shadow and started his own journey. Version 2: Still, he knew what had to be done. Taking a deep breath, he gathered the courage to speak. His parents’ eager faces filled him with guilt, but he could no longer hide the truth. With a steady voice, he told them that basketball was never his dream. Instead, his heart belonged to cheerleading. The room fell into a heavy silence. His father’s proud expression crumbled into disbelief, while his mother stared at him as if seeing a stranger. Mark felt the weight of their unspoken disappointment pressing down on him. Just then, Reggie stepped forward. Without a word, he placed a firm hand on Mark’s shoulder and nodded — a small gesture that spoke volumes. Tears welled in Mark’s eyes. His family didn’t fully understand yet, but at least they were willing to listen. A week later, it was time for the cheerleader audition. Mark’s heart hammered against his ribs as he walked onto the gym floor. Around him, dozens of talented athletes moved with grace and power. When his name was called, he stepped onto the mat, shut out the noise, and let his body take over. Every jump, every spin, every tumbling pass was a testament to months of secret sweat and sacrifice. The moves that once felt clumsy now flowed like music. As he struck his final pose, the room erupted in applause. Through the crowd, he spotted his family — his mother wiping tears, his father clapping with genuine pride, and Reggie cheering louder than anyone. Days later, when the team list was posted, Mark’s name was there. He was no longer chasing someone else’s glory. He had found his own. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了擅长篮球、背负家人期待的马克，内心真正热爱啦啦操，他瞒着家人私下刻苦训练，摆脱哥哥的光环、想要走出属于自己的道路，在篮球试训顺利结束后，决心向家人坦白真实梦想的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写（参考Version 1） ① 由第一段首句可知，接下来可描写马克鼓足勇气向父母坦白自己放弃篮球、热爱啦啦操的真实想法，讲述自己长期私下训练的经历，以及父母从错愕、不解到最终理解、支持他的态度转变过程。 ② 由第二段首句可知，接下来可描写马克参加啦啦操选拔时的状态、精彩的赛场表现，凭借扎实的训练成果成功入选，看到父母为自己骄傲喝彩，最终实现自我、走出哥哥光环的圆满结局。 2. 续写线索 鼓足勇气坦白真实梦想——父母错愕沉默、面露疑惑——马克坚定诉说训练经历与初心——父母释怀选择支持——马克自信参加啦啦操选拔——凭借实力成功入选——收获家人认可、活出自我 3.词汇积累 行为类 ①宣布：announce/declare ②询问：ask/inquire 情绪类 ①兴奋：excitement/thrill ②紧张，不安：nervousness/unease 【点睛】【高分句型1】Taking a deep breath, Mark explained that his true passion was cheerleading although he was good at basketball.（运用了现在分词作状语以及that引导的宾语从句） 【高分句型2】When the results were announced, Mark heard his name among those selected.（运用了when引导时间状语从句以及过去分词作后置定语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 南昌一中2026-2027学年度上学期高三第二次月考 英语试卷 考试时长：120分钟 试卷总分：150分 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 1.

The Barcelona hit wasn’t part of the team for Euro 2024, but he did win an Olympic gold medal that same summer and is now a key member, despite his tender age. His ability on the ball is essential for the way the team plays. Son Heung-min South Korea/Forward Born: July 8, 1992 Current team: Los Angeles FC Date joined: 2025 Surely the greatest player in the history of South Korean football, Son Heung-min has the chance to enjoy one final blast at the highest level. After leaving Tottenham to join Los Angeles FC in the MLS last summer, the explosive forward has become accustomed to conditions and is a hero with the local South Korean community. With his big-game experience, lasting quality and in-game intelligence, he is more than capable of inspiring the Asian Tigers to big results. Antony Brazil/Winger Born: Feb. 24, 2000 Current team: Real Betis Date joined: 2025 Having struggled to meet expectations at Manchester United, Antony has rebuilt his career at Real Betis, and he now looks set to return to the international fold to provide some extra magic for Brazil. Playing on the right-hand side, the 26-year-old has a magical left foot and a sharp eye for goal, and he’s able to link with teammates and unlock defenses. There are bigger names, but Antony will be a dangerous and unpredictable option if called upon. Jeremy Doku Belgium/Midfielder Born: May 27, 2002 Current team: Manchester City Date joined: 2023 Jeremy Doku enters the World Cup after what many consider to be a breakout season with Manchester City, where he became a regular in Pep Guardiola’s side and showed his tremendous quality on countless occasions. With incredible speed and an eye for a pass, the Belgium star is ready to make a huge impact. Belgium boss Rudi Garcia is likely to lean on him in attack, and he will surely deliver. 1. What can we learn about Pau Cubarsi? A. He joined FC Barcelona in the year 2023. B. He was a member of Spain’s team for Euro 2024. C. He is a forward with excellent ball control ability. D. He won an Olympic gold medal in the summer of 2024. 2. Who is the oldest player mentioned in the text? A. Pau Cubarsi. B. Son Heung-min. C. Antony. D. Jeremy Doku. 3. The passage is most probably intended for ___________. A. coaches who are training national football teams B. journalists who are reporting on basketball matches C. football fans who are interested in the 2026 World Cup D. students who are studying abroad B Growing up in America as a child of first-generation Chinese immigrants, I was used to living in two worlds. But as I grew older, the Chinese side faded away. While I happily accepted the red envelopes during Lunar New Year and consumed mooncakes on the Mid-Autumn Festival, I didn’t feel connected to the culture. Before my children were born, I had already decided that I would teach them Mandarin (普通话). I felt that they ought to be able to speak the language of their heritage. Parenting books advised describing your actions while playing with your children, so I started digging out the long-buried words during every activity: “ball”, “eat”, “sleep”, “play”. However, as this exercise continued, the gaps in my Mandarin became more and more obvious. Luckily, the ready availability of Chinese language media — from books to television shows to music — made things much easier. As they grew older, I took them to the local library where the tale of the Monkey King and the legend of Chang’e immediately caught their imagination. When I see my son converse with his grandfather in Mandarin or when my daughter insists on fish for Lunar New Year, the time spent reading all those books closely feels well-spent. Last fall, my youngest son recited Li Bai’s “Quiet Night Thoughts” for the Moon Festival performance at his preschool. His voice rang out with confidence and his arms swept up to indicate the moon above. Joy and wonder lit up my father’s face as he listened to the familiar verses from the mouth of his grandson. Decades ago, my Chinese teacher explained to me how the moon connects all those who seek its light, no matter how far apart they are. So, too, does language. It influences culture and history, and connects future generations to past ones. 4. What do we know about the author as a child? A. She travelled between two countries when young. B. She was brought up in an all-English environment. C. She once lost her sense of belonging to Chinese culture. D. She was attracted to Chinese traditional festivals the most. 5. How did the author teach her children Mandarin? A. Talking about her daily routine. B. Sending them to a Chinese teacher. C. Buying them ancient Chinese storybooks. D. Taking advantage of Chinese language media. 6. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Ambitious. B. Devoted. C. Proud. D. Optimistic. 7. What lesson can be learnt from this article? A. All roads lead to Rome. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Great minds think alike. D. Language bridges generations. C The roar of late-night traffic is not just annoying for those trying to sleep. It can also have profound effects on their health. A pioneering new study, published this month, has found a clear link between road noise and Parkinson’s disease. The research, which followed more than 3 million Danish participants, found a modest but consistent effect: for every 11.5dB (分贝) rise in noise level, the risk of the worsening disorder rose by 3% over the 18-year study. The study adds to the growing body of evidence that auditory bother is associated with serious physical consequences. The European Environment Agency reported last year that more than 110 million people across the continent suffer high levels of health-damaging noise pollution, with physiological stress and sleep disturbance leading to 66,000 early deaths annually as well as heart disease, diabetes and depression. It found that the harm caused was greater than from secondhand tobacco smoke exposure. However, noise is not an uncontrollable part of city life. China’s official statistics suggests significant improvements there in the last decade. That’s not just down to the rise of electric vehicles, declining construction and closures of loud venues. Authorities have also installed sound barriers and laid tens of millions of square metres of quieter road surfacing. Improved engineering and even lower speed limits can bring benefits. Sound insulation (隔音设施) for homes and reliance on noise-cancelling headphones should be a last resort. One of the subtler consequences of auditory pollution is not what it imposes on us, but what it takes away. Animals and even plants are acutely sensitive to loud noises and can be damaged by them. Traffic noise drowns out the rustling of trees. Those who learn to tune out what’s around them no longer mind the birdsong. Not all noise is unwelcome. But we should do more to address the sounds that bring misery, not least so that we can experience those that bring joy. 8. What does noise pollution result in based on the European Environment Agency? A. Worsening hearing disorder. B. An uncontrollable consequence. C. 66,000 early deaths every month. D. A worse damage than secondhand tobacco smoke. 9. What can we infer about China’s efforts to reduce noise pollution? A. Authorities have taken effective measures. B. The closure of loud venues is ineffective. C. The rise of electric vehicles is the key factor. D. Noise pollution in China has been controlled. 10. Why does the author mention animals and plants? A. To show that noise pollution affects their living surroundings. B. To explain that traffic noise has a hidden harmful effect. C. To call on people to protect animals and plants from noise. D. To prove that animals and plants are more sensitive than humans. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Birdsong: A Hidden Threat to Health B. Sound insulation: A Solution to Traffic Noise C. Noise Pollution: A Bother to Health D. China’s Progress: A Model to Address Noise Pollution D For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ. According to this view, once the brain reached its full developmental potential in early adulthood, its neural connections were fixed. This opinion held that the brain, like a muscle that reaches its maximum size, could not adapt or change after a certain point. However, the discovery of neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has fundamentally altered our understanding of the brain. We now know that the brain is a dynamic, ever-changing organ that continues to reorganize itself in response to new experiences, learning and challenges. A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action. Taxi drivers in London must memorize a vast network of streets and landmarks in a test known as “The Knowledge.” Brain scans revealed that the posterior hippocampus — the area of the brain responsible for spatial memory — was significantly larger in these drivers than in the general population. More interestingly, the longer a driver had been on the job, the more pronounced the changes in this area of the brain, suggesting that the brain physically adapts to intense mental activity. However, neuroplasticity is a double-edged sword. While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits. For instance, constant multitasking and excessive consumption of short-form content, such as quick social media videos, can train the brain to have a shorter attention span, making it harder to engage in focused, deep work. The implications of this discovery are profound. We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions. This means we have more agency over our cognitive health than we ever realized. Lifelong learning, mental stimulation, and even unlearning unhealthy habits are not just cultural ideals, but they are biological necessities for maintaining a tough, sharp mind throughout life. 12. What is the previous view of the adult brain? A. It is capable of lifelong development. B. It is reshaped by learning and training. C. It is highly responsive to daily habits. D. It is largely unchanged after maturity. 13. How does the author support the idea of neuroplasticity? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By comparing methods. C. By presenting a case study. D. By describing an experiment. 14. What does the underlined word “rewired” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fixed. B. Simplified. C. Adjusted. D. Destroyed. 15. What does the author argue in the last paragraph? A. Daily habits greatly shape our minds. B. People can’t control cognitive health. C. Mental health depends fully on genes. D. Lifelong learning is far from a necessity. 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能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Putting things off costs a lot. One study published in 2013 ranked 22,053 people on a procrastination (拖延) scale of one to five. Each increase of one point was associated with a drop of nearly $15,000 in annual earnings. A study of 3,525 Swedish university students published in 2023 also found that procrastinators more likely to suffer anxiety, stress and loneliness. ____16____ ____17____ One set is known as mental contrasting with implementation intentions (MCII). Popularised in a number of smartphone apps, the idea is simple: picture the benefits of achieving a goal; contrast that image with the main obstacle; and picture a strategy to overcome it. In two randomised trials reported in 2020 undergraduates were given online MCII exercises designed to reduce the delaying of bedtime, which research has linked to procrastination in general. They missed their intended bedtimes by around 38 minutes less each night than those in a control group given advice about healthy sleeping habits. Exercise shows promise too. A Chinese trial published in March assessed procrastination in 77 male teenagers. They were randomly assigned to 12 weeks of strength training, high-intensity interval training, or a combination of the two. ____18____ An earlier study of 564 Chinese university students found that the most physically active also procrastinated less. The researchers speculated that overcoming the stress gave them a “sense of mastery” that boosted confidence and motivation. These days, opportunities for procrastination are greater than before. Many people work from home, out of the boss’s sight. ____19____ In one review published in 2022, each of the 18 studies assessed linked excessive scrolling (滚屏) to procrastination. ____20____ Lack of sleep blocks executive function, leading to more failures of self-regulation. It would be helpful if the scientists involved could stop procrastination. A. Mental exercises appear to help. B. Smartphones often delay bedtime, too. C. Smartphones offer endless distractions. D. Here are some ways to stop procrastinating. E. Then there is the question of diet and other habits. F. They showed “significant reductions” in putting things off. G. Procrastinators are more likely to delay medical treatment. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In 1986, Hamburg and Shanghai became sister cities, ____21____ cultural exchanges that soon reached local high schools, offering Chinese language classes and student exchange programs.

He had just finished trying out for Oakwood High School’s basketball team, and he knew making it to the team was a pretty sure thing. After all, he wasn’t just good — he was excellent. Basketball ran in the family — his older brother Reggie was now playing at a top college, and Mark was expected to follow in his brother’s footsteps. But Mark had a secret: his heart was in another sport. Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mark jumped on a bus heading home. Through the window, his eyes were drawn to the field where cheerleaders (啦啦队) danced effortlessly. He couldn’t look away. For months now, cheerleading had been on his mind. Reaching into his bookbag, he pulled out a poster: CHEERLEADER AUDITIONS (选拔). This was what he really wanted. Mark knew pursuing cheerleading wouldn’t just be a physical challenge. His family had poured so much hope into his basketball future. But he was tired of living in his brother’s shadow. He was ready to carve his own path. Six months ago, Mark once told his best friend Darren about his dream. “Cheerleading is girly,” Darren said. “You’re so good at basketball. Why throw that away?” Mark stood his ground. “This is where I want to put my strength,” he insisted. Over time, Darren began to understand and support him. Still, Mark kept his passion hidden from his family. Secretly, Mark trained with two cheerleaders. Cheerleading didn’t come naturally — every move demanded more than basketball ever had. But month by month, he improved. Maybe, just maybe, he stood a chance of making it to the cheerleading team. But right now, after his basketball tryout, he had to face his family. As soon as Mark arrived home, his parents were at the door. “So …?” his father asked. “The tryout? It went well.” Mark replied, staring at his feet. Everyone in the family was smiling … except Mark. 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。 Still, he knew what had to be done. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A week later, it was time for the cheerleader audition. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
