The rhythm of my days was 18 on a stormy Tuesday.A sudden heavy rain sent people rushing inside for cover,filling the quiet space with 19.From my corner,I watched in horror as old Mr.Clark,the librarian,20 a towering pile of returns near the open door.He looked weak against the wind.Suddenly,the ancient Oxford English Dictionary,the library's crown jewel,21 from his trembling grasp. It landed in a deep,.muddy puddle on the doorstep with a loud splash(溅水声)， A cry of shock went up from the crowd-but while they stood 22,I acted without hesitation.My usual shyness was gone.I rushed into the rain and scooped up the dripping giant.Cradling the soaked volume like an injured bird,I 23 the counter. "Paper towels,immediately!"I instructed,my voice surprisingly 24,"Don't rub the pages;just press them gently.And someone call a book conservator(文物修复员)！ Suddenly I stopped,waiting for them to laugh at me.To my 25,the crowd listened.For the next hour,the library 26 into an emergency room.I 27 the rescue with knowledge I'd 28 from reading about book preservation.I guided them to use paper towels and cool fans,ensuring the spine remained flat.Even Mr.Clark,pale but 29 worked beside me,nodding firmly at every instruction.In that chaos,my knowledge wasn't 30-it was needed,heard,trusted.We worked carefully,page by page.By the end of the hour,the great dictionary lay stabilise:its pages wrinkled,but legible.It would need professional help-but it would 31. And so did something new in me. As the storm cleared,Mr.Clark placed a hand on my shoulder.His eyes were warm with 32 and something deeper."Panic held me back,but you took control,"he said softly."You weren't just saving a book today,you were 33 Saving that wet dictionary taught me a vital lesson:courage isn't the absence of fear,but the strong belief that something else matters more.My 34,I discovered, was there all along-it just needed the right 35 to be heard 16.A.shelter B.museum C.stage D.office 17.A.discriminated B.surrounded C.wrapped D.watched 18.A.continued B.restored C.repeated D.broken 19.A.smoke B.light C.noise D.activity 20.A.ordered B.rejected C.handled D.elected 21.A.originated B.slipped C.persevered D.disappeared 22.A.frozen B.united C.delighted D.relaxed 23.A.put up with B.ran back to C.lived up to D.came up with 24.A.calm B.familiar C.soft D.sensitive 25.A.astonishment B.amusement C. disappointment D. embarrassment 26.A.burst B.divided C.transformed D.crashed .27.A.pretended B.imagined C.wove D.directed 28.A.borrowed B.absorbed C.removed D.created 29.A.confused B.frightened C. determined D.terrified 30.A.hidden B.assigned C.qualified D.accepted 31.A.bomb B.organise C.exist D.survive 32.A.mixture B.gratitude C.concern D.regret 33.A.reacting B.dreaming C.guessing D.leading 34.A.·proposal B.sign C.ambition D.voice 35.A.position B.venue C.moment D.source III.Reading comprehension(2 points each,40 points in total) 共16页第4页 Welcome to the LearningEnglish Course for Students!Our program is designed to help you build strong English skills through a flexible,supportive,and structured learning experience.With over 85,000 students in our"Courses for Student Community", you'll join a vibrant network of learners and educators dedicated to growth and success.

Curious,I picked up a few postcards from the barrel and hand-delivered them upon returning home.The recipients were incredibly grateful,and the pure joy of connecting strangers lingered(持续思考)in my mind..Weeks later,,a bold idea struck me:What if I spent a year delivering these letters worldwide?Realising I could maintain my remote job while turning kindness into a mission,I decided to document this journey on social media-not for fame,but to preserve the stories and connect with people along the way. In 2024,I returned to the barrel and selected 55 letters.My rule was simple:deliver one per week.To keep the experience authentic,I counted only on addresses and asking locals for directions,avoiding social media to track people down. I was extremely nervous during the first few deliveries as I had no idea how people would respond to a stranger appearing on their doorstep.At first,people were confused, but once they understood what I was doing,they turned out to be really warm and welcoming-though there were exceptions. One heart-stopping moment happened in Norway,where I almost got arrested.A woman mistook my selfie stick for a weapon and called the police.I had to show the officers my Instagram to explain,and fortunately,we all ended up laughing.My favourite delivery occurred in Mexico City.I handed a mother a letter from her daughter thanking her for supporting her dreams.The emotional weight of the journey hit me then.There were tears and hugs. When I finished my challenge,I held a grand party in London,where I invited everyone I had met along the way.Seeing people from all corners of the globe gather together,I was so touched to have made lifelong friends.Though the challenge has ended,my journey isn't over.I'm writing a book and helping develop a film about my travels.Now as I sit at my desk,I'm already starting to get itchy feet. 共16页第7页 41.What originally inspired the author to launch the global delivery project? A.The desire to prove the honour system B The inspiration from connecting strangers. C.The ambition to seek fame on social media. D.The curiosity to explore the whalers'history. 42.Why did the author stick to the old-fashioned method of finding addresses? A.To reduce the trouble of online search. B.To ensure a genuine travel experience. C.To make the journey more challenging. D.To cut down the cost of the trip. 43.The author mentions the delivery in Mexico City to show A.the importance of family support B.the cultural differences in Mexico C.the meaningfulness of the mission D.the unexpected risks during the trip 44.What does the author suggest by saying he's already starting to get itchy feet? A.He cannot wait to hit the road again. B.He is suffering from a skin infection. C.He feels exhausted after the long journey. D.He struggles to focus on his writing work. 45.What message does the story convey? A.Handwritten letters still hold value. B.One needs to be brave to travel alone. C.Trust is hard to build in modern society. D.Real-world connections bring deep fulfillment 共16页第8页 c For over two thousand years,a fundamental paradox(矛盾的人或事)has puzzled both scientists and philosophers:how can plants,lack of eyes,adjust their growth toward light?It is a question that challenges our basic understanding of biological perception. While animals depended on visual organs to detect illumination ()plants seem to possess no such structures.Yet,their competence in seeking light is undeniable Historically,interpretations of this phenomenon varied.Early Greek thinkers assumed that plants could sense their environment in a manner similar to animals. However,Aristotle later promoted a different perspective.He argued that plants were passive objects,unable to perceive or respond to the world.Because of his authority,this negative view dominated Western thought for centuries,limiting further investigation into plant intelligence. Nevertheless,a team of European researchers has recently challenged these old assumptions.By employing advanced imaging technology like confocal microscopy on Arabidopsis(拟南芥)，they analysed the internal transmission of light. The results reveal that the air channels between the plant's cells function as a distributed optical system.Unlike solid tissue,these channels are transparent and air-filled;as light hits the stem,these channels act effectively as microscopic lenses. This structural adaptation is key to their perception.As light travels through the tissue,these lenses scatter and refract the beams significantly.This scattering phenomenon creates a gradient (of light intensity across the stem,enabling the organism to triangulate(使成三角形)the source of illumination and determine its direction without the need for a central nervous system. This discovery implies that"sight"does not necessarily require eyes.Instead,the plant employs a complex,whole-body sensory approach to sense its surroundings.It is a sophisticated mechanism that allows seedlings to "see"the source of light and adapt their growth accordingly.These findings are significant not only because they resolve an ancient mystery,but because they force us to re-evaluate our definition of"sight".The Aristotelian view that plants are passive is proven misguided.The evidence demonstrates that plants have evolved a sophisticated way to perceive their environment without complex organs.They are far more adaptive than we previously imagined. 共16页第9页 Consequently,this research opens a new chapter for biologists.Questions remain about how these air channels are formed and how plants process such light signals. Understanding these mechanisms could help us learn more about the interaction between plants and the world一and perhaps even inspire biomimetic(生物模拟学)innovations in robotics. 46.Why does the author mention Aristotle in Paragraph 2? A.To provide details about the history of ancient Greek philosophy. B.To explain the scientific delays caused by early scholars. C.To introduce a fundamental paradox in biology. D.To praise the wisdom of ancient thinkers. 47.What function do the air channels serve in Arabidopsis? A.Acting as solid supporting tissues. B.Serving as central nervous systems. C.Functioning as internal energy sources. D.Operating as a non-solid medium to guide light. 48.How does the plant identify the direction of illumination? A.By sensing the heat from external sources. B.By depending on complex sensory organs. C.By utilising solid tissues to focus beams. D.By forming a gradient of light intensity. 49.What does the new discovery suggest about plants? A.They possess complex adaptation mechanisms. B.They require neural networks for perception. C.They depend on visual organs for survival. D.They remain passive objects in nature. 50.What is the author's purpose in comparing plant mechanisms with robotics? A.To show that plants behave like machines. B.To argue that biology is too complex to mimic. C.To suggest nature offers solutions for technology. D.To prove that robots can now imitate human eyes. 共16页第10页 D Picture this:you are typing on a screen,and a smart app instantly proposes a "perfect"word.It feels like magic,doesn't it?But let's travel back to the days before computers.Writing then was a physical adventure.To find a word,our parents had to lift a heavy dictionary-sometimes a real workout!They flipped through pages and hunted for meanings like detectives.They didn't just choose an option,but made a discovery. With such digital "magic"at our fingertips today,are those physical books now obsolete?Why keep a dusty dictionary when an AI can rewrite our sentences in milliseconds?The answer lies in the distinction between convenience and autonomy. Dictionaries are not just lists of definitions;they are training grounds for our brains. Rather than providing fail-safe shortcuts,they equip us with the knowledge to shape language creatively.In doing so,they place the power of choice firmly in our own hands Consider the popular writing apps we use.They promise to make our writing smooth"and "efficient",However,this efficiency carries a hidden price.When we depend entirely on these automated aids,we risk losing our own voice.The British writer George Orwell once warned that using ready-made phrases is akin to letting someone else "construct your sentences for you-even think your thoughts for you." Today,that“"someone else”"is an algorithm(算法).If we always click“accept'”ona suggestion,are we really writing,or are we just assembling parts chosen by a computer? This echoes Orwell's belief that "the worst thing one can do with words is to surrender to them.” Furthermore,there is a profound value in the "inefficient"method.Digital tools are engineered for precision:you ask for a word,and it delivers the exact answer. Conversely,a physical dictionary offers the joy of discovery-the chance to encounter words you weren't looking for.While searching for "rain",you might encounter “rainbow'”or“rainforest'”.These unanticipated encounters.expand our cognitive(认知的) horizons in ways a direct search never could.One method is efficient and the other is inspiring. As digital writing becomes common in our lives,we need dictionaries more than ever.If we abandon them in favour of automated tools,we risk losing the ability to express ourselves clearly and originally.We need these physical books on our shelves- 共16页第11页 to browse,to learn from,and to be inspired by.Without this drive for lifelong learning, we are left with the ultimate question:Why write at all? 51.What can be inferred about finding words in the past from Paragraph 1? A.It required more strength than patience. B.It was an active process of discovery. C.It served to identify writing errors. D.It was a boring and heavy burden. 52.Why does the author consider physical dictionaries to be "training grounds"? A.They encourage us to use language creatively. B.They offer shortcuts to rewriting sentences C.They force users to memorise definitions. D.They provide fail-safe lists for writing. 53.The author quotes George Orwell in Paragraph 3 to A.explain the logic of computer algorithms B.prove the accuracy of automated writing C.stress the value of independent thinking D.further the use of ready-made phrases 54.What benefit does the "inefficient"method offer in Paragraph 4? A.It ensures precise and instant answers. B.It broadens minds through chance finds. C.It improves the efficiency of digital tools. D.It focuses on searching for specific terms. 55.By asking "Why write at all?"at the end,the author implies that A.physical books serve as training grounds for our brains B.automated aids surrender our ability to think clearly C.true expression demands effort and original thought D.digital aids have liberated writers from boring work 第Ⅱ卷（主观题共35分） IV.Read the following passage and answer the following questions.(2 points each,10 points in total) For Dave Player,the deafening roar of a V8 engine is not just noise-it is the symphony of a dream delayed but never destroyed.Setting his sights on the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans race(勒芒24小时耐力赛)in2026,the founder and CE0of Team BRIT explains his ambition simply:"If you're a mountain climber,you want to climb Everest,the highest peak on Earth.And if you're an endurance racer,you dream of Le Mans."It is the ultimate goal in the racing world,a historic event that every driver hopes to join one day. Meet Team BRIT,a squad that is changing the boundaries of human potential. These are not just racing drivers;they are survivors who have endured life-threatening accidents and difficult health problems.Now,they are preparing to join the most famous championships in the world.If they succeed in qualifying for what is known as the world's most tiring race,they will enter the history books as the first all-disabled team to do so. However,the road to glory is paved with obstacles.While other disabled drivers have participated through special "wild card"passes,Dave,54,refuses to cut corners. "We don't want that,"he insists seriously."We want to compete on a level playing field."This is their declaration to the world:they wish to earn their success through sweat and grit,not have it handed to them out of sympathy. Dave's journey started with a tragedy.When he was 23,he dove into a lake to save a drowning child and broke his neck.But that dark moment became a turning point. After setting up the charity Kart Force in 2010 to aid injured soldiers,he went on to found Team BRIT in 2015.The team created a set of high-tech hand controls.These amazing tools allow drivers to control the speed and brakes with their hands,enabling them to eempete side by side with able-bodied competitors. Today,at their test track in Dunsfold Park,the air is full of excitement.Every practice lap is driven by one belief:the top of the racing world is not just for the strong bodies,but for the brave hearts who refuse to throw in the towel.When the race begins in 2026,Team BRIT will prove a great truth:the only real disability is a mind that is afraid to try. 71.What do climbing Everest and racing in Le Mans have in common?(no more than 10 words) 72.What record will Team BRIT set if they qualify for the race?(no more than 10 words) 73.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 3 mean?(1 word) 74.How do the drivers control the cars without using their feet?(no more than 10 words) 75.What quality of Team BRIT impresses you most?Please explain why.(no more than 25 words) VI.Writing(25 points) 假设你是晨光中学的李津，你校英语学习俱乐部决定举办主题为My Dream Campus Day'的英文征文活动，请从下列选题中选择一个进行投稿。 内容要求： 1.你期待设立的校园主题日； 2. 你希望安排的特色活动； 3.设立这个主题日的意义。 征文选题：握手日Handshake Day/点赞日Thumbs-up Day/角色互换日 Role-switching Day My Dream Campus Day 共16页第14页 第Ⅱ卷（听力题共20分） 第一节(1 point each,,5 points in total) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一道小题，从每题所给的A、B、C三个选项中选 出最佳选项。每段对话你将听一遍。 56.Where does the conversation most probably take place?
