B Every autumn, I give my first-year college students an unusual writing task: imagine that they are alone at an old telephone booth (电话亭) in the Mojave Desert. The night is quiet, and there is no one for miles. Suddenly, the phone rings. “Who is calling?” I ask. Students must explain not only who is calling but also why that person has chosen to call them. The idea came from a real telephone booth that once stood in the California desert. Travelers visited it because anyone, from anywhere, might call. Although the booth has disappeared, I wondered whether an unexpected call could open an unexpected conversation. So I turned the idea into a writing task. I expected many kinds of answers. Some students imagined conversations with historical figures; others received calls from grandparents they had never met or strangers asking for help. But one choice appeared repeatedly: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves. At first, I thought this simply happened by chance. Then the same pattern appeared semester (学期) after semester. Curious, I reread dozens of stories, paying attention not to who was calling but to what was being said. The future selves rarely talked about wealth, fame or great success. Instead, they offered words of comfort. They told their younger selves that failure would pass, loneliness would disappear gradually and life would become larger than today’s worries. Then I understood. These imagined callers were not predicting (预测) the future. They were giving words to hopes the students already carried but had never expressed. By imagining someone who did not exist, students found a safe way to speak honestly about the lives they were living. The telephone booth, then, is not really the destination. It is a doorway. Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly. The voice we are waiting to hear may have been our own all along. 4. What were the students asked to do? A. Make up a caller at a phone booth. B. Interview an older relative. C. Describe a phone booth in California. D. Report a recent visit to the desert. 5. What surprised the author most? A. Students gave their answers really quickly. B. Many students imagined great figures calling. C. Talking with future selves is a frequent choice. D. Students found real stories about the phone booth. 6. What did the future selves mainly say to the students? A. Warnings about danger. B. News about coming events. C. Advice on gaining wealth. D. Words to comfort themselves. 7. Which idea may the author agree with? A. Calls can connect distant people. B. Listening to others’ voice matters greatly. C. Imagination helps us see life clearly. D. Future selves may help us find success. C For decades, movie studios have relied on advance screenings (提前放映) to assess how audiences respond to in-development films, with viewer reactions informing edits, re-shoots and even changed endings. Studios typically collect qualitative feedback (反馈) that relies only on memory after films end — if audiences in this busy age even finish watching. But researchers at the University of Bristol in England now seek to modernize this method with a first-of-its-kind “smart” movie theater with high-tech equipment to measure viewers’ instant physical reactions. Located on the institution’s new campus, the 35-seat Smart Cinema pairs the familiar high-resolution laser projector and Dolby surround-sound speakers with technologies foreign to most movie houses: heart rate monitors, EEG headsets and high-tech cameras. “With this smart cinema technology and with these methods, you don’t have to take the risk of releasing something and hoping it works. You can actually get real audience insight, moment by moment, into how they’re responding and then make changes before release,” says Iain Gilchrist, the co-author of a study that applied those methods. Researchers showed 40 people ten short TV videos of different story types while collecting data about their bodies by monitoring viewers’ pulses (脉搏), brain waves, body heat, skin responses and eye movements. The research team found that viewers’ attention and personal involvement had connections with heart rate matching and consistent eye movement, yet their capacity to follow story plots showed no such link. A short science fiction drama called RENO became the Smart Cinema’s first tested film this week, playing to roughly 200 viewers. Fittingly, the film explores the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) and was produced on an experimental stage at the university that makes use of virtual reality technology. “As a director, having the opportunity to conduct an audience test of RENO in the Smart Cinema is truly invaluable,” says Rob Hifle, the film’s director. “It’s not just about improving the film; it’s also about connecting with viewers, understanding their reactions. This experience will undoubtedly shape the final cut in ways I can’t yet imagine.” 8. What can Smart Cinema gain from viewers? A. Suggestions for story adjustments. B. Complete personal preference lists. C. Real-time direct responses to the movie. D. Their long-term emotional changes. 9. What discovery came out of the study? A. Engagement relates to certain body signals. B. Short videos work better for movie testing. C. Brain waves showed viewers’ attention levels. D. Heart rate matching improved story understanding. 10. What does Rob Hifle say about the Smart Cinema test? A. It speeds up film production. B. It judges and improves audience tastes. C. It will replace the director’s creative role. D. It affects his film in unexpected ways. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. RENO: A Sci-Fi Story of AI B. The Secret of Happy Viewers C. This Cinema Watches You Watch D. Advance Screenings: Memory Still Matters D A new study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill shows an amazing fact about insects, raising concerns about the health of ecosystems (生态系统) that depend on them. Keith Sockman, associate professor of biology at UNC-Chapel Hill, counted how many flying insects there were during 15 seasons between 2004 and 2024 on a subalpine meadow (亚高山草甸) in Colorado, a site with 38 years of weather data and almost no direct human impact. He discovered an average annual decline of 6.6% in insect populations, amounting to a 72.4% drop over the 20 years. The study also found that this steep decline is associated with rising summer temperatures. “In the biodiversity crisis, insects are in a special but inauspicious position. This is because they provide important ecological services, such as nutrient cycling and pollination (授粉), while at the same time they are easily harmed by environmental change,” Sockman said. “Insects are necessary for land and fresh-water ecosystems to function, but they are struggling now.” The findings address a critical gap in global insect research. While many reports of insect declines focus on habitats changed by human activity, few examine populations in relatively untouched areas. This study demonstrates that dramatic losses can occur even where direct human impacts are very small, suggesting climate change may be a key driver. “Several recent studies report significant insect declines across a variety of human-changed ecosystems, particularly in North America and Europe,” Sockman said. “Most such studies report on ecosystems that have been directly impacted by humans or are surrounded by impacted areas, raising questions about insect declines and their drivers in more natural areas.” Sockman emphasizes the urgency of these results for biodiversity conservation: “Mountains are host to high numbers of locally adapted species that live only there, including insects. Thus, the status of mountains as biodiversity hotspots may be at risk if the declines shown here reflect trends broadly.” This research highlights the need for more comprehensive monitoring of insect populations in a variety of landscapes and adds urgency to addressing climate change. By showing that even remote ecosystems are affected, the study points to the global scale of the biodiversity crisis. 12. What did Sockman’s study find? A. Human damage to the mountain areas. B. A continuous fall of flying insect numbers. C. New insect species appearing in the wild. D. Quick changes of weather conditions in Colorado. 13. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “inauspicious” in paragraph 3? A. Specific. B. Unfamiliar. C. Safe. D. Unlucky. 14. What gap does the study fill in insect research? A. Data from less-disturbed natural sites. B. Proof of human influence on biodiversity. C. Methods to protect damaged insect habitats. D. Records collected in heavily polluted regions. 15. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. Remote areas remain free of climate harm. B. The biodiversity trouble spreads worldwide. C. Mountain species can adapt to warming fast. D. Climate actions have greatly slowed insect decline. 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。 There is a moment in life when we realise that less truly is more. For me, it arrived when I watched my mother prepare tea. She used just a glass cup, green leaves, and water boiled three times. “The third boil,” she said, “is when the water learns to breathe.” I thought her funny. ____16____ Modern life, however, makes it hard for people to live simply. We are flooded with messages and expectations. ____17____ As a result, we make worse decisions, become less creative, and feel very tired. The more we accumulate, the more we have to carry, and what we carry eventually carries us. Adding more does not make life better; it makes it heavier. ____18____ People think doing many things at once is great, but it’s not. Scientists say it makes you 40% less efficient. In a world where many things distract you, the bravest thing is to fully focus on what you are doing. Simplicity requires courage too. It is easier to accumulate than to let go of habits that no longer serve us. Yet letting go is not a loss or failure; it is a choice and freedom. Start small and embrace the power of empty space. ____19____ In traditional Chinese painting, “leaving white” — the empty space — is as important as the brush marks. Life needs empty space too. Our capacity to appreciate depends on leaving some of it unused. Simplicity is a superpower in today’s world. ____20____ You are making space for what actually matters. As my mother used to say, “The tea is just leaves and water. But when you pay attention, it becomes something else entirely.” That is what she meant: less is more. A. Big changes always bring the best results. B. When you simplify, you are not losing anything. C. Perfection is achieved when nothing is left to add. D. Learning to do one thing at a time is a great shift. E. This means there is more information than our brain can handle. F. Now, I understand she spoke of the profound power of simplicity. G. Clear out one drawer, delete a useless app, or spend ten minutes in silence. 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。 I wanted a name that was easier to say or remember. I didn’t want to freeze every time a teacher ____21____, unsure of how to say it, and all eyes turned to me. I wanted to feel that I fitted in. One evening, seeing I was ____22____ about my name again, my grandmother said, “Anahita was the ____23____ of the river, the lifeline for our village. When it dried up, the village ____24____. My mother wanted us to remember that we once belonged to something that gave us ____25____. She made me promise I would never let that name be ____26____. So I gave it to you.” I sat there silently, letting her ____27____ make sense to me. Something soft ____28____ inside me. I realised my name was more than a word people struggled to pronounce. Instead, it carried a story I had never bothered to ____29____. It was no longer a label that embarrassed me, but an incredible thread (线) ____30____ me to people I had never known and places I had never been to. I also started to wonder whether I had been looking for belonging in the ____31____ places for so long. That conversation ____32____ the way I thought about my name — with a quiet pride I had not noticed before. I no longer wished it were ____33____ or more ordinary. Instead, I felt grateful for a name carrying a river and a(n) ____34____ — it reminded me that true ____35____ comes not from becoming the same as everyone else, but from knowing where I come from. 21. A. stopped B. joked C. pretended D. skipped 22. A. astonished B. annoyed C. panicked D. curious 23. A. story B. memory C. tradition D. name 24. A. moved B. unfolded C. disappeared D. survived 25.

There, ____37____ (explore) the basic principles of traditional Chinese landscape painting, she joined a workshop led by an experienced artist. The class that day ____38____ (teach) by Wei Yunfei, a professor at the Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts. For Jankovic, a Serbian national with no background in Chinese culture, Chinese landscape painting is an interesting but challenging art form, ____39____ was totally fresh and unfamiliar to her. For the first time, Jankovic held a traditional Chinese brush ___40___ carefully added flowers to tree branches. As she hesitated, Wei offered a simple ____41____ (instruct): “Paint freely, and trust your instincts (直觉).” “I used to think that Chinese painting was only black ink and I did not expect such lively colors, like cinnabar red,” Jankovic said. The lesson ____42____ (definite) went beyond the studio. “When I was using chopsticks at dinner, I caught myself thinking of how to handle a brush. It feels like these ____43____ (element) are becoming part of my daily life.” “Through exposing participants ____44____ typical works of traditional Chinese culture and hands-on painting experiences, they can not only learn the techniques of brush and ink but also develop a genuine interest in traditional Chinese art, thus gaining much ____45____ (deep) insights into Chinese culture,” Wei said. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你校将组织城市公园生态保护（ecological protection）活动，校英语报给出An English speaking contest和An environmental volunteer activity两个选择，请你给校英语报编辑写一封邮件，内容包括： (1) 你的选择； (2) 说明理由。 注意： (1) 写作词数应为80词左右； (2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Editor, _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Mark was a shy high school student who always preferred staying at home to taking any unpredictable adventure. However, on a stormy Friday afternoon, his grandfather handed him a small, delicate wooden clock wrapped in thick paper. The clock was a special gift for Mr. Henderson, an old neighbor known in the community for his bad temper and serious look. “Deliver this safely, Mark,” his grandfather said with an encouraging smile. “It took me weeks to make it. Mr. Henderson has been waiting for a long time.” Unwillingly, Mark held the package tightly under his arm and stepped out into the wind and heavy rain. Raindrops kept hitting his face, making it hard for him to keep his eyes open. As he walked along the dark, slippery street, his worry grew stronger with every step. Children in the neighborhood were all afraid of Mr. Henderson and avoided his house. The thought of facing the old man made Mark’s stomach twist in fear. Finally, Mark arrived at the dark front door. Standing under the wet roof, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and knocked softly. A moment later, the heavy door opened, and Mr. Henderson appeared. The old man folded his arms, looking down at Mark with an icy expression. “What do you want, kid?” Mr. Henderson asked in a hard, cold voice. “I... I brought the clock from my grandfather,” Mark stammered (结巴着说) nervously, stepping forward to hand over the package. Suddenly, disaster happened. Mark’s wet shoes slipped on the smooth wooden floor. He lost his balance completely, his arms swinging wildly in the air. The package flew out of his hands and dropped onto the ground with a loud crash. The sharp sound of broken wood instantly filled the quiet entrance hall. Mark dropped to his knees, his heart sinking as he looked at the pieces around him. He slowly raised his head, facing the old man’s angry eyes. 注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mark froze for a moment, waiting nervously for Mr. Henderson’s reaction. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Guided by Mr. Henderson, Mark began to pick up the pieces carefully. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2027届高三10月质量检测 英语试题 注意事项： 1．本试卷共10页，满分150分，时间120分钟。 2．答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 3．回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。涂写在本试卷上无效。 4．作答非选择题时，将答案书写在答题卡上，书写在本试卷上无效。 5．考试结束后，监考员将答题卡按顺序收回，装袋整理；试卷不回收。 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，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

The night is quiet, and there is no one for miles. Suddenly, the phone rings. “Who is calling?” I ask. Students must explain not only who is calling but also why that person has chosen to call them. The idea came from a real telephone booth that once stood in the California desert. Travelers visited it because anyone, from anywhere, might call. Although the booth has disappeared, I wondered whether an unexpected call could open an unexpected conversation. So I turned the idea into a writing task. I expected many kinds of answers. Some students imagined conversations with historical figures; others received calls from grandparents they had never met or strangers asking for help. But one choice appeared repeatedly: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves. At first, I thought this simply happened by chance. Then the same pattern appeared semester (学期) after semester. Curious, I reread dozens of stories, paying attention not to who was calling but to what was being said. The future selves rarely talked about wealth, fame or great success. Instead, they offered words of comfort. They told their younger selves that failure would pass, loneliness would disappear gradually and life would become larger than today’s worries. Then I understood. These imagined callers were not predicting (预测) the future. They were giving words to hopes the students already carried but had never expressed. By imagining someone who did not exist, students found a safe way to speak honestly about the lives they were living. The telephone booth, then, is not really the destination. It is a doorway. Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly. The voice we are waiting to hear may have been our own all along. 4. What were the students asked to do? A. Make up a caller at a phone booth. B. Interview an older relative. C. Describe a phone booth in California. D. Report a recent visit to the desert. 5. What surprised the author most? A. Students gave their answers really quickly. B. Many students imagined great figures calling. C. Talking with future selves is a frequent choice. D. Students found real stories about the phone booth. 6. What did the future selves mainly say to the students? A. Warnings about danger. B. News about coming events. C. Advice on gaining wealth. D. Words to comfort themselves. 7. Which idea may the author agree with? A. Calls can connect distant people. B. Listening to others’ voice matters greatly. C. Imagination helps us see life clearly. D. Future selves may help us find success. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要讲述了作者给大一学生布置写作任务，想象沙漠电话亭接到来电。很多学生幻想接到未来自己的电话，借此倾诉内心，想象力帮他们认清现实。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Students must explain not only who is calling but also why that person has chosen to call them.( 学生必须解释的不仅是谁打来的，还有为什么那个人选择打给他们。)”可知，作者布置的写作任务是让学生想象在沙漠的电话亭里接电话，并虚构出打电话的人及其原因。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“But one choice appeared repeatedly: students imagined receiving a call from an older version of themselves.( 但有一个选择反复出现：学生们想象接到一个更老版本的自己的电话。)”以及第四段开头作者提到这种现象学期复学期地出现让他感到好奇（Curious）可知，最让作者惊讶的是“与未来的自己交谈”成为了学生们频繁的选择。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The future selves rarely talked about wealth, fame or great success. Instead, they offered words of comfort.( 未来的自己很少谈论财富、名声或巨大的成功。相反，他们提供安慰的话语。)”可知，未来的自己主要是在对学生们说安慰的话。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Sometimes imagination does not take us away from reality; it helps us see it more clearly.( 有时想象力不会让我们脱离现实；它帮助我们更清晰地看清现实。)”可推知，作者认为想象力能够帮助我们更清楚地认清现实生活。 C For decades, movie studios have relied on advance screenings (提前放映) to assess how audiences respond to in-development films, with viewer reactions informing edits, re-shoots and even changed endings. Studios typically collect qualitative feedback (反馈) that relies only on memory after films end — if audiences in this busy age even finish watching. But researchers at the University of Bristol in England now seek to modernize this method with a first-of-its-kind “smart” movie theater with high-tech equipment to measure viewers’ instant physical reactions. Located on the institution’s new campus, the 35-seat Smart Cinema pairs the familiar high-resolution laser projector and Dolby surround-sound speakers with technologies foreign to most movie houses: heart rate monitors, EEG headsets and high-tech cameras. “With this smart cinema technology and with these methods, you don’t have to take the risk of releasing something and hoping it works. You can actually get real audience insight, moment by moment, into how they’re responding and then make changes before release,” says Iain Gilchrist, the co-author of a study that applied those methods. Researchers showed 40 people ten short TV videos of different story types while collecting data about their bodies by monitoring viewers’ pulses (脉搏), brain waves, body heat, skin responses and eye movements. The research team found that viewers’ attention and personal involvement had connections with heart rate matching and consistent eye movement, yet their capacity to follow story plots showed no such link. A short science fiction drama called RENO became the Smart Cinema’s first tested film this week, playing to roughly 200 viewers. Fittingly, the film explores the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence (AI) and was produced on an experimental stage at the university that makes use of virtual reality technology. “As a director, having the opportunity to conduct an audience test of RENO in the Smart Cinema is truly invaluable,” says Rob Hifle, the film’s director. “It’s not just about improving the film; it’s also about connecting with viewers, understanding their reactions. This experience will undoubtedly shape the final cut in ways I can’t yet imagine.” 8. What can Smart Cinema gain from viewers? A. Suggestions for story adjustments. B. Complete personal preference lists. C. Real-time direct responses to the movie. D. Their long-term emotional changes. 9. What discovery came out of the study? A. Engagement relates to certain body signals. B. Short videos work better for movie testing. C. Brain waves showed viewers’ attention levels. D. Heart rate matching improved story understanding. 10. What does Rob Hifle say about the Smart Cinema test? A. It speeds up film production. B. It judges and improves audience tastes. C. It will replace the director’s creative role. D. It affects his film in unexpected ways. 11. What can be the best title for the text? A. RENO: A Sci-Fi Story of AI B. The Secret of Happy Viewers C. This Cinema Watches You Watch D. Advance Screenings: Memory Still Matters 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍英国布里斯托大学新型智能影院通过监测观众实时生理反应来改进电影制作的研究。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But researchers at the University of Bristol in England now seek to modernize this method with a first-of-its-kind “smart” movie theater with high-tech equipment to measure viewers’ instant physical reactions.(但英国布里斯托大学的研究人员现在寻求用一种首创的“智能”电影院来使这一方法现代化，该影院配备高科技设备来测量观众的即时生理反应)”以及第四段“You can actually get real audience insight, moment by moment, into how they're responding and then make changes before release(你实际上可以获得真实的观众洞察，一刻接一刻地了解他们的反应，然后在上映前做出改变)”可知，智能影院能实时获取观众对电影的直接生理反应。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“The research team found that viewers’ attention and personal involvement had connections with heart rate matching and consistent eye movement, yet their capacity to follow story plots showed no such link.(研究团队发现，观众的注意力和个人投入与心率匹配以及稳定的眼球运动存在关联，然而他们理解故事情节的能力却没有这种关联)”可知，研究发现观众的投入程度与某些身体信号（心率、眼球运动）有关。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“It’s not just about improving the film; it’s also about connecting with viewers, understanding their reactions. This experience will undoubtedly shape the final cut in ways I can’t yet imagine.”(这不仅仅是关于改进电影；它还关乎与观众建立联系，理解他们的反应。这次经历无疑将以我还无法想象的方式影响最终剪辑)” 可知，Hifle认为这次测试将以他意想不到的方式影响他的电影。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第二段“But researchers at the University of Bristol in England now seek to modernize this method with a first-of-its-kind “smart” movie theater with high-tech equipment to measure viewers’ instant physical reactions.(但英国布里斯托大学的研究人员现在寻求用一种首创的“智能”电影院来使这一方法现代化，该影院配备高科技设备来测量观众的即时生理反应)”以及第三段“Located on the institution’s new campus, the 35-seat Smart Cinema pairs the familiar high-resolution laser projector and Dolby surround-sound speakers with technologies foreign to most movie houses: heart rate monitors, EEG headsets and high-tech cameras.(该拥有35个座位的智能影院坐落于这所大学的新校区，它将常见的高清激光投影仪与杜比环绕音响，和大多数影院没有的技术相结合：心率监测器、脑电波头套以及高科技摄像头)”可知，文章主要介绍智能影院利用各类设备监测观众观影时的生理反应，选项C“这家影院在你观看时观察你”概括文章核心内容，适合作本文标题。 D A new study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill shows an amazing fact about insects, raising concerns about the health of ecosystems (生态系统) that depend on them. Keith Sockman, associate professor of biology at UNC-Chapel Hill, counted how many flying insects there were during 15 seasons between 2004 and 2024 on a subalpine meadow (亚高山草甸) in Colorado, a site with 38 years of weather data and almost no direct human impact. He discovered an average annual decline of 6.6% in insect populations, amounting to a 72.4% drop over the 20 years. The study also found that this steep decline is associated with rising summer temperatures. “In the biodiversity crisis, insects are in a special but inauspicious position. This is because they provide important ecological services, such as nutrient cycling and pollination (授粉), while at the same time they are easily harmed by environmental change,” Sockman said. “Insects are necessary for land and fresh-water ecosystems to function, but they are struggling now.” The findings address a critical gap in global insect research. While many reports of insect declines focus on habitats changed by human activity, few examine populations in relatively untouched areas. This study demonstrates that dramatic losses can occur even where direct human impacts are very small, suggesting climate change may be a key driver. “Several recent studies report significant insect declines across a variety of human-changed ecosystems, particularly in North America and Europe,” Sockman said. “Most such studies report on ecosystems that have been directly impacted by humans or are surrounded by impacted areas, raising questions about insect declines and their drivers in more natural areas.” Sockman emphasizes the urgency of these results for biodiversity conservation: “Mountains are host to high numbers of locally adapted species that live only there, including insects. Thus, the status of mountains as biodiversity hotspots may be at risk if the declines shown here reflect trends broadly.” This research highlights the need for more comprehensive monitoring of insect populations in a variety of landscapes and adds urgency to addressing climate change. By showing that even remote ecosystems are affected, the study points to the global scale of the biodiversity crisis. 12. What did Sockman’s study find? A. Human damage to the mountain areas. B. A continuous fall of flying insect numbers. C. New insect species appearing in the wild. D. Quick changes of weather conditions in Colorado. 13. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “inauspicious” in paragraph 3? A. Specific. B. Unfamiliar. C. Safe. D. Unlucky. 14. What gap does the study fill in insect research? A. Data from less-disturbed natural sites. B. Proof of human influence on biodiversity. C. Methods to protect damaged insect habitats. D. Records collected in heavily polluted regions. 15. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. Remote areas remain free of climate harm. B. The biodiversity trouble spreads worldwide. C. Mountain species can adapt to warming fast. D. Climate actions have greatly slowed insect decline. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了一项研究发现，在人类干扰极少的科罗拉多亚高山草甸，飞虫数量二十年大幅下降。该研究填补了自然原生区域昆虫研究的空白，证明气候变化造成昆虫减少，也揭示生物多样性危机已经波及全球偏远地区。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Keith Sockman, associate professor of biology at UNC-Chapel Hill, counted how many flying insects there were during 15 seasons between 2004 and 2024 on a subalpine meadow (亚高山草甸) in Colorado, a site with 38 years of weather data and almost no direct human impact. He discovered an average annual decline of 6.6% in insect populations, amounting to a 72.4% drop over the 20 years.(北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校生物学副教授基思·索克曼，在科罗拉多一处亚高山草甸统计了2004至2024年间15个季节的飞虫数量，该地点拥有38年气象数据，几乎不受人类直接干扰。他发现昆虫种群每年平均下降6.6%，20年间总共下降了72.4%)”可知，索克曼的研究发现飞虫数量持续下降。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“In the biodiversity crisis, insects are in a special but inauspicious position. This is because they provide important ecological services, such as nutrient cycling and pollination (授粉), while at the same time they are easily harmed by environmental change.(在生物多样性危机中，昆虫处于特殊但inauspicious的处境。它们提供养分循环、授粉这类重要生态服务，却很容易受到环境变化的伤害)”可知，昆虫处境不幸，inauspicious含义为“不幸的、倒霉的”。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The findings address a critical gap in global insect research. While many reports of insect declines focus on habitats changed by human activity, few examine populations in relatively untouched areas.(该研究成果填补了全球昆虫研究的一项关键空白。许多关于昆虫减少的报告聚焦于被人类活动改变的栖息地，很少研究相对未受干扰区域的昆虫种群)”可知，这项研究填补的空白是来自受干扰较少的自然区域的数据。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Sockman emphasizes the urgency of these results for biodiversity conservation: “Mountains are host to high numbers of locally adapted species that live only there, including insects. Thus, the status of mountains as biodiversity hotspots may be at risk if the declines shown here reflect trends broadly.”(索克曼强调这项研究结果对于生物多样性保护的紧迫性：“山区拥有大量仅在此生存的本地特有物种，其中包括昆虫。因此，如果这里发现的昆虫减少趋势具有普遍性，山区作为生物多样性热点地区的地位将面临威胁。”)”以及最后一段“This research highlights the need for more comprehensive monitoring of insect populations in a variety of landscapes and adds urgency to addressing climate change. By showing that even remote ecosystems are affected, the study points to the global scale of the biodiversity crisis.(该研究凸显需要对各类区域的昆虫种群开展更全面监测，也让应对气候变化变得更加紧迫。研究表明就连偏远生态系统也受到影响，这说明了生物多样性危机是全球性的)”可知，生物多样性危机正在全球蔓延。 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。 There is a moment in life when we realise that less truly is more. For me, it arrived when I watched my mother prepare tea. She used just a glass cup, green leaves, and water boiled three times. “The third boil,” she said, “is when the water learns to breathe.” I thought her funny. ____16____ Modern life, however, makes it hard for people to live simply. We are flooded with messages and expectations. ____17____ As a result, we make worse decisions, become less creative, and feel very tired. The more we accumulate, the more we have to carry, and what we carry eventually carries us. Adding more does not make life better; it makes it heavier. ____18____ People think doing many things at once is great, but it’s not. Scientists say it makes you 40% less efficient. In a world where many things distract you, the bravest thing is to fully focus on what you are doing. Simplicity requires courage too. It is easier to accumulate than to let go of habits that no longer serve us. Yet letting go is not a loss or failure; it is a choice and freedom. Start small and embrace the power of empty space. ____19____ In traditional Chinese painting, “leaving white” — the empty space — is as important as the brush marks. Life needs empty space too. Our capacity to appreciate depends on leaving some of it unused. Simplicity is a superpower in today’s world. ____20____ You are making space for what actually matters. As my mother used to say, “The tea is just leaves and water. But when you pay attention, it becomes something else entirely.” That is what she meant: less is more. A. Big changes always bring the best results. B. When you simplify, you are not losing anything. C. Perfection is achieved when nothing is left to add. D. Learning to do one thing at a time is a great shift. E. This means there is more information than our brain can handle. F. Now, I understand she spoke of the profound power of simplicity. G. Clear out one drawer, delete a useless app, or spend ten minutes in silence. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. D 19. G 20. B 【解析】 【导语】文章通过母亲泡茶的小事引出“少即是多”的生活哲学，指出现代人信息过载、多任务并行反而降低效率，倡导从小处做起、为生活留白，以简单专注的方式释放真正重要的东西。 【16题详解】 上文“She used just a glass cup, green leaves, and water boiled three times. “The third boil,” she said, “is when the water learns to breathe.” I thought her funny. (她只用一个玻璃杯、茶叶和煮沸三次的水。她说：“第三道沸时，水学会了呼吸。”我觉得她好笑)”叙述作者年少时对母亲泡茶哲学的不解甚至觉得可笑，F选项“Now, I understand she spoke of the profound power of simplicity.(现在，我明白了她讲的是简约的深刻力量)”以“Now”与上文“I thought her funny”中的过去时态形成时间对比，由“觉得好笑”转向“理解深意”，承接第一段末句并自然开启下文对现代生活复杂困境的论述，上下文语意连贯。 【17题详解】 上文“We are flooded with messages and expectations.(我们被各种信息和期待所淹没)”指出现代人信息过载的处境，E选项“This means there is more information than our brain can handle.(这意味着信息超出了我们大脑能够处理的范围)”承接上文，进一步解释“flooded with messages”的具体后果 —— 大脑处理不过来。 【18题详解】 设空处为段落主旨句，下文“People think doing many things at once is great, but it’s not. Scientists say it makes you 40% less efficient.(人们认为同时做很多事很棒，但事实并非如此。科学家说这会让你的效率降低40%)”批判了多任务并行的做法，D选项“Learning to do one thing at a time is a great shift.(学会一次只做一件事是一个巨大的转变)”正面提出本段核心主张——一次只做一件事，与下文批判的“doing many things at once”形成正反对照。 【19题详解】 上文“Start small and embrace the power of empty space.(从小处着手，拥抱留白的力量)”提出行动建议——从小事做起、拥抱留白，G选项“Clear out one drawer, delete a useless app, or spend ten minutes in silence.(清理一个抽屉、删掉一个没用的应用，或者静坐十分钟)”以三个具体的微小行动举例说明“Start small”的实际做法，与上文构成总分例证关系。 【20题详解】 上文“Simplicity is a superpower in today’s world.(在当今世界，简单是一种超能力)”总结简约的价值，B选项 “When you simplify, you are not losing anything.(当你做减法时，你并没有失去任何东西)”先让步澄清一个常见误解——简化不是失去；下文“You are making space for what actually matters.(你正在为真正重要的东西腾出空间)”以“You are making space”正面解释B选项中“not losing anything”的真正含义 。 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。 I wanted a name that was easier to say or remember.

I also started to wonder whether I had been looking for belonging in the ____31____ places for so long. That conversation ____32____ the way I thought about my name — with a quiet pride I had not noticed before. I no longer wished it were ____33____ or more ordinary.

There, ____37____ (explore) the basic principles of traditional Chinese landscape painting, she joined a workshop led by an experienced artist. The class that day ____38____ (teach) by Wei Yunfei, a professor at the Tianjin Academy of Fine Arts. For Jankovic, a Serbian national with no background in Chinese culture, Chinese landscape painting is an interesting but challenging art form, ____39____ was totally fresh and unfamiliar to her. For the first time, Jankovic held a traditional Chinese brush ___40___ carefully added flowers to tree branches.

However, on a stormy Friday afternoon, his grandfather handed him a small, delicate wooden clock wrapped in thick paper. The clock was a special gift for Mr. Henderson, an old neighbor known in the community for his bad temper and serious look. “Deliver this safely, Mark,” his grandfather said with an encouraging smile. “It took me weeks to make it. Mr. Henderson has been waiting for a long time.” Unwillingly, Mark held the package tightly under his arm and stepped out into the wind and heavy rain. Raindrops kept hitting his face, making it hard for him to keep his eyes open. As he walked along the dark, slippery street, his worry grew stronger with every step. Children in the neighborhood were all afraid of Mr. Henderson and avoided his house. The thought of facing the old man made Mark’s stomach twist in fear. Finally, Mark arrived at the dark front door. Standing under the wet roof, he took a deep breath to calm himself down and knocked softly. A moment later, the heavy door opened, and Mr. Henderson appeared. The old man folded his arms, looking down at Mark with an icy expression. “What do you want, kid?” Mr. Henderson asked in a hard, cold voice. “I... I brought the clock from my grandfather,” Mark stammered (结巴着说) nervously, stepping forward to hand over the package. Suddenly, disaster happened. Mark’s wet shoes slipped on the smooth wooden floor. He lost his balance completely, his arms swinging wildly in the air. The package flew out of his hands and dropped onto the ground with a loud crash. The sharp sound of broken wood instantly filled the quiet entrance hall. Mark dropped to his knees, his heart sinking as he looked at the pieces around him. He slowly raised his head, facing the old man’s angry eyes. 注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；（2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mark froze for a moment, waiting nervously for Mr. Henderson’s reaction. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Guided by Mr. Henderson, Mark began to pick up the pieces carefully. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mark froze for a moment, waiting nervously for Mr. Henderson’s reaction. “I’m so sorry, sir! It was an accident,” he stammered. He prepared himself for a furious roar, but to his surprise, the anger never came. Instead, Mr. Henderson slowly bent down beside him. “Don’t cry, young man,” the old man said gently, sighing softly. “It’s just wood and craft. Things can always be fixed.” Looking into his warm eyes, Mark realized the old neighbor was not scary at all, but simply lonely. “Let’s clean this up first,” Mr. Henderson added with a smile. Guided by Mr. Henderson, Mark began to pick up the pieces carefully. Together, they spent the next two hours sitting on the warm carpet, fixing the broken clock step by step. As Mark carefully glued the wooden parts back, the old man patiently guided him and shared lively stories about his youth. The once silent house was soon filled with laughter and warm conversation. When the rain finally stopped, the clock was ticking rhythmically again. Walking home under the clear sky, Mark felt a strong sense of pride, learning that courage often comes from understanding others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了害羞的马克冒雨为坏脾气的邻居送祖父做的钟，不慎摔碎后，却意外发现邻居温和友善，两人一起修好钟并成为朋友的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句可知，第一段可描写马克等待责骂，却发现亨德森先生温和友善，打破了此前对他的坏印象。 ②由第二段首句可知，第二段可描写二人一起修补钟表，聊天交心，马克收获勇气与新认知。 2.续写线索：冒雨送钟——意外摔碎——等待斥责——收获善意——合力修钟——领悟勇气真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①结巴说：stammer/speak haltingly ②弯下腰：bend down/stoop down/lean over 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②孤独的：lonely/solitary/lonesome 【点睛】【高分句型1】As Mark carefully glued the wooden parts back, the old man patiently guided him and shared lively stories about his youth.
