However, the limited resources and opportunities there made it difficult to pursue my own growth, so I went to the United States for my Ph.D. and postdoc. As I progressed in my training, I internalized the dominant narrative that success meant securing a university teaching post at a research-intensive institution. But during my postdoc, I realized I needed to change my perspective. I am a husband and father of two daughters, one of whom requires ongoing medical care. My modest salary and limited benefits made every day feel like walking a tightrope over an abyss (深渊) of financial instability and emotional exhaustion. Professional stress bled into my home life. In turn, the weight of my personal responsibilities made professional setbacks feel even more crushing. Trapped in this cycle, I began to reconsider my career path. I began exploring alternatives. Then I was particularly drawn to smaller universities that, although they still support research, place a greater emphasis on teaching. I liked that these universities emphasize expertise and vision, along with the opportunity to build meaningful academic programs. They also offered adequate pay and comprehensive benefits — factors that were becoming increasingly important as I considered my long-term career stability. The fog began to lift. This wasn’t about settling for a less renowned institution. It was about choosing an environment that would allow me to pursue my professional aspiration (抱负) while also attending to my personal life. Now two years into my position at a smaller university, my days have shifted from long, uninterrupted lab hours to balancing teaching, advising, and research. With my institution’s support, I felt clarity for the first time in years. The students’ engagement and curiosity reawakened my passion for guidance. And research didn’t disappear — it evolved. This journey has redefined success. For me, it isn’t merely about high-impact publications or renowned grants (津贴) — it’s about creating opportunities for students to thrive, asking meaningful research questions, and maintaining a balance between professional aspirations and personal well-being. Here, I’ve discovered not just success, but significance. 4. According to the article, how did the author previously understand the meaning of success? A. Success meant having a high salary and financial stability. B. Success meant balancing professional work with family responsibilities. C. Success meant landing a position at a famous institution. D. Success meant guiding students and enjoying teaching regardless of institution types. 5. What might be the author’s primary consideration in favoring smaller universities? A. They are equally renowned and impactful. B. They focus merely on high-impact research and publications. C. They offer less research work and fewer teaching responsibilities. D. They value personal development and provide competitive compensation. 6. What does the author think of his current job? A. Respected but stressful. B. Demanding but flexible. C. Dull and restrictive. D. Fulfilling and balanced. 7. What lesson can we learn from the author’s story? A. Success is not one-size-fits-all. B. Every coin has two sides. C. Adversity leads to prosperity. D. The grass is always greener on the other side. C In the heart of the UAE desert, a humble plant called Tamarix aphylla doesn’t just survive in conditions with significant concentrations of salt; it actually grows rather well, with heights up to 18 meters, thanks to a major biological adaptation. While driving through the UAE desert, materials scientist Marih Al-Handawi and her co-workers were deeply drawn to the plant whose appeal contrasts sharply with the terrible landscape. The team recorded videos of Tamarix aphylla plants in their natural habitat to disclose the secret behind their remarkable survival. The plant’s roots absorb salty water from the desert soil. Then, like a magician playing a trick, it releases a concentrated salt solution (溶液) onto the outer surface of its leaves. As the salt solution is heated under the sun, it transforms itself into a crystalline (结晶的) mixture. The team’s analysis of the chemical composition of the plant’s salty mixture revealed over ten different types of salt crystallized together, primarily sodium chloride (NaCl), together with a special element: lithium sulfate (Li₂SO₄). Compared to sodium chloride which brings in water at a relatively high humidity (湿度) level, lithium sulfate is not picky at all — it works even at much lower humidity. The collected water staying on the plant’s leaves is greedily absorbed. This led the researchers to conclude that the presence of lithium sulfate explains the ability of the plant to live in the dry UAE desert. “Our findings not only reveal a unique, natural complex strategy for water consumption, they also hold the promise of taking cloud seeding (rainmaking) practices to new heights, based on a natural salt that could efficiently harvest water from the air,” said Al-Handawi. “Currently, cloud seeding relies on the use of chemicals to increase the water amount in the air, some of which are potentially harmful to the environment.” In a world where there is an increasing shortage of fresh water, the research should take center stage. Within a broader context, this natural strategy uncovered by the research team for harvesting humidity using environmentally friendly salts could also provide a bioinspired approach that can enhance the function of currently available water collection technologies. 8. What feature of Tamarix aphylla amazes the research team? A. The high concentration of salt in its trunks. B. Its biological response to high temperatures. C. Its ability to stand deserts with high salt content. D. Its adaptability to changing environmental conditions. 9. What is the primary role of lithium sulfate formed on the leaves? A. To shelter the leaves from strong sunlight. B. To aid in the process of salt crystallization. C. To help the leaves take in water at low humidity. D. To make the leaves bear the highly humid environment. 10. What lesson can weather authorities learn from the researchers’ findings? A. Introducing salt-tolerant plants to water-stressed places. B. Assessing the effect of cloud seeding on regional plants. C. Seeking new methods for monitoring water levels in the air. D. Making cloud seeding more sustainable by using certain salt. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. A Desert Plant Reveals Its Secret of Harvesting Water from Air. B. The Serious Shortage of Fresh Water in the UAE Desert. C. New Ways to Remove Salt from Soil in Desert Areas. D. Lithium Sulfate: A Common Salt Found in All Desert Plants. D For whatever reason, at some point or another, you may have decided to say the same word over and over again. After repeating the word a few times, it started to lose its meaning. Experientially, it just became an abstract sound. Leon James, a professor of psychology, made this phenomenon the subject of research, coining the term “semantic satiation” (语义饱和). Put simply, sensory signals stimulate the firing of regions in the brain that are linked to concepts and categories that give those signals meaning. The sound of a word is one such signal. After firing once, it takes more energy to fire those brain cells a second time. So when we hear a word the second time, it is more energy-intensive for the brain to continually link it to the concepts associated with the word. It takes even more energy at the third time. Maybe those cells won’t even fire a fourth time. James called this reactive inhibition. For humans, semantic satiation is a universal phenomenon for all words, but it may take longer for different words to lose their meaning. For example, you may have more vivid and intense mental images tied to a word like “hospital” compared to a word like “lamp”. Because of the underlying feelings and meanings, your mind cycles through meaningful categories that are linked to the word “hospital”, delaying the point where the word feels empty. By contrast, the word “lamp” has less meaningful implications. Neuroscientist David Huber finds a similarity between semantic satiation and the brain’s ignoring familiar environmental information. Neural habituation (神经习惯化), a process studied by Huber, is the reduction in our brains’ processing capacities in relation to things we have already experienced. From a neurological perspective, habituation helps our brains reduce the amount of disruption from things that we have already seen and thus conserve the limited mental energy for novel information. The next time you experience satiation in one of its forms, consider it an ace in the hole: In a world where we’re constantly flooded with sensory inputs, associative satiation is a technique our minds have evolved to ignore what’s not important. 12. What causes semantic satiation according to the passage? A. The brain gradually loses the ability to hear the sound of repeated words. B. The brain fails to repeatedly activate specific brain cells. C. The brain intentionally ignores the abstract concepts and categories. D. The brain requires less mental energy to continually connect words with their concepts. 13. What makes some words take much longer to reach semantic satiation? A. The sound intensity when the words are spoken. B. The richness of associated meanings and emotions. C. The frequency of the words used in daily life. D. The reactive inhibition level of relevant brain cells. 14. How does neural habituation benefit us? A. By enhancing our emotional responses to words. B. By strengthening the memory of past experiences. C. By prioritizing the processing of new information. D. By preventing the occurrence of reactive inhibition. 15. What does the underlined part “an ace in the hole” in the last paragraph mean? A. A blessing. B. A reaction. C. A shift. D. A routine. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。 Is Sugarcoat Sweet? In our pursuit to maintain harmony, avoid conflict, and prevent hurt feelings, we’re sometimes tempted to be polite to sugarcoat the truth. ____16____ However, too much display of this behavior can muddy the waters of communication. Here are the dangers of sugarcoating: ____17____ Your job isn’t to soften the blow when delivering bad news to the extent that you leave others feeling confused about your intentions. When messages are wrapped in layers of politeness, the true intention or meaning can be lost — the receiver may not fully grasp the seriousness or urgency of the message. Leave issues unsolved. Sugarcoated messages can prevent important issues from being tackled. When feedback is not clear, it becomes difficult for the receivers to take appropriate action. They may not know exactly what is expected of them or how to go about making the necessary changes. ____18____ Meanwhile, the present status will continue, leaving important issues unresolved. Get upset and annoyed. Over time, the lack of clarity has a significant effect on relationships and can lead to frustration and complaint, especially when one party has put in an effort to express themselves but feels unacknowledged. The dissatisfaction may lead to their suspicion of the authenticity of the relationship and doubt about whether their efforts are being wasted. ____19____ While it’s natural to want to spare others’ feelings, overly polite communication can sometimes do more harm than good. ____20____ Only in this way can we reduce misunderstandings and have relationships built on trust and clarity. Remember, the goal is not to abandon politeness completely but to balance it with honesty, ensuring that our communications are both kind and effective. A. Reduce trust. B. Cause misinterpretations. C. This avoids displeasing them. D. The uncertainty can lead to inaction. E. This can create a cycle of negative emotions. F. Being polite is generally seen as a positive performance. G. So it is wise to be open for more direct and honest interactions. 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 “Mom, we have discussed this.

It had belonged to his grandfather, a quiet man who had passed away when Leo was only six. Leo barely remembered him — just a gentle laugh, and the way his grandfather’s hands always seemed to be busy with something. After the funeral, the violin was stored away and gradually forgotten. Leo’s mother, however, had never stopped believing it was something special. “It’s not just a violin, Leo,” she would say. “It has a voice. Your grandfather used to play it every evening after dinner. He said music was the only language that never needed translating.” But Leo wasn’t so sure. The instrument looked old, fragile, and entirely out of place in his modern, digital world. Leo had been learning the violin for three years, but progress was painfully slow. His classmates seemed to master pieces effortlessly, while he struggled with the same scales (音阶) day after day. Worse still, his teacher, Mrs. Hale, had assigned him a difficult solo for the school’s annual concert. The piece was called “Remembrance,” a slow, emotional composition full of long trembling notes that required a depth of feeling Leo wasn’t sure he possessed. He practiced for hours, but the notes remained flat and lifeless. One rainy afternoon, unable to bear his own playing any longer, Leo climbed into the attic to escape. His eyes fell on the old case. Slowly, he knelt down and opened it. Inside lay a violin clearly handcrafted, its wood darkened by time, its surface marked with tiny scratches. Beneath the strings was a faded photograph: his grandfather, much younger, standing on a small stage with this very violin in his hands. On the back, in shaky handwriting, were three words: “For the listeners.” Leo carefully lifted the violin. It felt surprisingly light, as if it had been waiting. He drew the bow across the strings. The sound that emerged was not perfect — raw and slightly uneven — but surprisingly beautiful, like a voice that had been silent for too long. 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。 Leo brought the violin downstairs and began to practice the assigned solo piece with it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The night of the concert finally arrived. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 哈九中2024级高三10月阶段性考试 英语试卷 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话，每段对话读两遍。 1.

A 【解析】 【导语】作者原本认为成功是进入研究型高校任教，受家庭经济压力影响后选择了小型大学，重新理解了成功，明白成功因人而异，要兼顾事业与生活。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“As I progressed in my training, I internalized the dominant narrative that success meant securing a university teaching post at a research-intensive institution.(在深造的过程中，我接受了主流看法：成功就是在一所研究型大学获得教职。)”可知，作者从前认为成功就是在知名研究机构获得职位。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“They also offered adequate pay and comprehensive benefits — factors that were becoming increasingly important as I considered my long-term career stability.(它们还提供充足的薪资和完善的福利——当我考虑长期职业稳定时，这些因素变得越来越重要。)”以及“It was about choosing an environment that would allow me to pursue my professional aspiration (抱负) while also attending to my personal life.(而是选择一个既能让我追求职业抱负，又能兼顾个人生活的环境。)”可知，小型大学重视个人发展并且提供有竞争力的薪酬待遇。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“For me, it isn’t merely about high-impact publications or renowned grants (津贴) — it’s about creating opportunities for students to thrive, asking meaningful research questions, and maintaining a balance between professional aspirations and personal well-being.(对我而言，成功不只是高影响力论文或者科研资助，而是为学生创造成长机会、提出有意义的研究问题，并且在职业抱负和个人幸福之间保持平衡。)”可知，作者认为现在的工作令人有成就感，并且可以兼顾平衡。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“As I progressed in my training, I internalized the dominant narrative that success meant securing a university teaching post at a research-intensive institution.(在深造的过程中，我接受了主流看法：成功就是在一所研究型大学获得教职。)”以及最后一段“This journey has redefined success.(这段经历重新定义了成功。)”可知，作者的经历告诉我们成功没有统一的标准。 C In the heart of the UAE desert, a humble plant called Tamarix aphylla doesn’t just survive in conditions with significant concentrations of salt; it actually grows rather well, with heights up to 18 meters, thanks to a major biological adaptation. While driving through the UAE desert, materials scientist Marih Al-Handawi and her co-workers were deeply drawn to the plant whose appeal contrasts sharply with the terrible landscape. The team recorded videos of Tamarix aphylla plants in their natural habitat to disclose the secret behind their remarkable survival. The plant’s roots absorb salty water from the desert soil. Then, like a magician playing a trick, it releases a concentrated salt solution (溶液) onto the outer surface of its leaves. As the salt solution is heated under the sun, it transforms itself into a crystalline (结晶的) mixture. The team’s analysis of the chemical composition of the plant’s salty mixture revealed over ten different types of salt crystallized together, primarily sodium chloride (NaCl), together with a special element: lithium sulfate (Li₂SO₄). Compared to sodium chloride which brings in water at a relatively high humidity (湿度) level, lithium sulfate is not picky at all — it works even at much lower humidity. The collected water staying on the plant’s leaves is greedily absorbed. This led the researchers to conclude that the presence of lithium sulfate explains the ability of the plant to live in the dry UAE desert. “Our findings not only reveal a unique, natural complex strategy for water consumption, they also hold the promise of taking cloud seeding (rainmaking) practices to new heights, based on a natural salt that could efficiently harvest water from the air,” said Al-Handawi. “Currently, cloud seeding relies on the use of chemicals to increase the water amount in the air, some of which are potentially harmful to the environment.” In a world where there is an increasing shortage of fresh water, the research should take center stage. Within a broader context, this natural strategy uncovered by the research team for harvesting humidity using environmentally friendly salts could also provide a bioinspired approach that can enhance the function of currently available water collection technologies. 8. What feature of Tamarix aphylla amazes the research team? A. The high concentration of salt in its trunks. B. Its biological response to high temperatures. C. Its ability to stand deserts with high salt content. D. Its adaptability to changing environmental conditions. 9. What is the primary role of lithium sulfate formed on the leaves? A. To shelter the leaves from strong sunlight. B. To aid in the process of salt crystallization. C. To help the leaves take in water at low humidity. D. To make the leaves bear the highly humid environment. 10. What lesson can weather authorities learn from the researchers’ findings? A. Introducing salt-tolerant plants to water-stressed places. B. Assessing the effect of cloud seeding on regional plants. C. Seeking new methods for monitoring water levels in the air. D. Making cloud seeding more sustainable by using certain salt. 11. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. A Desert Plant Reveals Its Secret of Harvesting Water from Air. B. The Serious Shortage of Fresh Water in the UAE Desert. C. New Ways to Remove Salt from Soil in Desert Areas. D. Lithium Sulfate: A Common Salt Found in All Desert Plants. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要围绕阿联酋沙漠中的‌无叶柽柳（Tamarix aphylla）‌ 展开，介绍了它独特的耐旱生存机制，以及该机制对解决全球淡水短缺问题的重要科研价值与应用前景。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“In the heart of the UAE desert, a humble plant called Tamarix aphylla doesn’t just survive in conditions with significant concentrations of salt; it actually grows rather well, with heights up to 18 meters, thanks to a major biological adaptation. While driving through the UAE desert, materials scientist Marih Al-Handawi and her co-workers were deeply drawn to the plant whose appeal contrasts sharply with the terrible landscape.(在阿联酋沙漠腹地，有一种不起眼的植物名叫无叶柽柳。它不只是能在高盐环境中存活；凭借一项重要的生物适应性特征，它长势喜人，株高最高可达18米。材料科学家玛丽赫・阿尔 - 汉达维和同事驱车穿行阿联酋沙漠时，被这种植物深深吸引——它的生机与荒芜的地貌形成鲜明对比。)”可知，这种柽柳可以在盐分高的沙漠环境生存并且长势良好，这一点让研究团队感到惊叹。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Compared to sodium chloride which brings in water at a relatively high humidity (湿度) level, lithium sulfate is not picky at all — it works even at much lower humidity. The collected water staying on the plant’s leaves is greedily absorbed.(与需要在相对较高的湿度条件下才能吸水的氯化钠不同，硫酸锂一点也不挑剔——即便在湿度低得多的环境中，它也能发挥作用。聚集在植物叶片上的水分会被植物充分吸收。)”可知，硫酸锂的主要作用是帮助叶片在低湿度环境下吸收水分。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““Our findings not only reveal a unique, natural complex strategy for water consumption, they also hold the promise of taking cloud seeding (rainmaking) practices to new heights, based on a natural salt that could efficiently harvest water from the air,” said Al-Handawi. “Currently, cloud seeding relies on the use of chemicals to increase the water amount in the air, some of which are potentially harmful to the environment.”(“我们的研究发现不仅揭示了一种独特、复杂的天然取水方式，还有望借助这种可以高效从空气中收集水分的天然盐，将人工增雨技术提升到新的水平，”阿尔-汉达维说，“目前人工增雨依靠化学药剂来增加空气中的水汽含量，其中部分化学物质可能会对环境造成危害。”)”可推知，气象部门可以利用这种天然盐，让人工增雨不再使用部分有害化学物质，使人工增雨更加环保可持续。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第四段“The team’s analysis of the chemical composition of the plant’s salty mixture revealed over ten different types of salt crystallized together, primarily sodium chloride (NaCl), together with a special element: lithium sulfate (Li₂SO₄). Compared to sodium chloride which brings in water at a relatively high humidity (湿度) level, lithium sulfate is not picky at all — it works even at much lower humidity. The collected water staying on the plant’s leaves is greedily absorbed. This led the researchers to conclude that the presence of lithium sulfate explains the ability of the plant to live in the dry UAE desert.(团队对这种盐混合物的化学成分进行分析后发现，十多种盐一同结晶，主要成分为氯化钠（食盐），还含有一种特殊物质：硫酸锂。氯化钠需要在湿度相对较高的环境下才能吸水，与之相比，硫酸锂对环境要求很低，即便在湿度很低的环境下也能发挥作用。叶片上聚集的水分会被植物充分吸收。研究者由此得出结论：硫酸锂的存在，正是这种植物能够在干旱的阿联酋沙漠生存的原因。)”可知，文章主要介绍阿联酋沙漠中的柽柳，科学家揭开它利用叶片上的盐类从空气中收集水分、在干旱沙漠存活的秘密，这项发现还可以启发人工集水与人工增雨技术。A选项“A Desert Plant Reveals Its Secret of Harvesting Water from Air.(一种沙漠植物揭开从空气中收集水分的秘密)”最能够概括全文核心内容，可作为最好的标题。 D For whatever reason, at some point or another, you may have decided to say the same word over and over again. After repeating the word a few times, it started to lose its meaning. Experientially, it just became an abstract sound. Leon James, a professor of psychology, made this phenomenon the subject of research, coining the term “semantic satiation” (语义饱和). Put simply, sensory signals stimulate the firing of regions in the brain that are linked to concepts and categories that give those signals meaning. The sound of a word is one such signal. After firing once, it takes more energy to fire those brain cells a second time. So when we hear a word the second time, it is more energy-intensive for the brain to continually link it to the concepts associated with the word. It takes even more energy at the third time. Maybe those cells won’t even fire a fourth time. James called this reactive inhibition. For humans, semantic satiation is a universal phenomenon for all words, but it may take longer for different words to lose their meaning. For example, you may have more vivid and intense mental images tied to a word like “hospital” compared to a word like “lamp”. Because of the underlying feelings and meanings, your mind cycles through meaningful categories that are linked to the word “hospital”, delaying the point where the word feels empty. By contrast, the word “lamp” has less meaningful implications. Neuroscientist David Huber finds a similarity between semantic satiation and the brain’s ignoring familiar environmental information. Neural habituation (神经习惯化), a process studied by Huber, is the reduction in our brains’ processing capacities in relation to things we have already experienced. From a neurological perspective, habituation helps our brains reduce the amount of disruption from things that we have already seen and thus conserve the limited mental energy for novel information. The next time you experience satiation in one of its forms, consider it an ace in the hole: In a world where we’re constantly flooded with sensory inputs, associative satiation is a technique our minds have evolved to ignore what’s not important. 12. What causes semantic satiation according to the passage? A. The brain gradually loses the ability to hear the sound of repeated words. B. The brain fails to repeatedly activate specific brain cells. C. The brain intentionally ignores the abstract concepts and categories. D. The brain requires less mental energy to continually connect words with their concepts. 13. What makes some words take much longer to reach semantic satiation? A. The sound intensity when the words are spoken. B. The richness of associated meanings and emotions. C. The frequency of the words used in daily life. D. The reactive inhibition level of relevant brain cells. 14. How does neural habituation benefit us? A. By enhancing our emotional responses to words. B. By strengthening the memory of past experiences. C. By prioritizing the processing of new information. D. By preventing the occurrence of reactive inhibition. 15. What does the underlined part “an ace in the hole” in the last paragraph mean? A. A blessing. B. A reaction. C. A shift. D. A routine. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍语义饱和（semantic satiation）现象：反复念同一个单词，这个词慢慢就失去含义，只剩下空洞的声音。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“After firing once, it takes more energy to fire those brain cells a second time. So when we hear a word the second time, it is more energy-intensive for the brain to continually link it to the concepts associated with the word. It takes even more energy at the third time. Maybe those cells won’t even fire a fourth time. James called this reactive inhibition.(脑细胞激活一次之后，再次激活就需要消耗更多能量。所以当我们第二次听到这个词时，大脑要持续把它和相关词义建立联系，就会更加耗费精力。第三次听到时消耗的能量会更多。到第四次，这些细胞或许根本无法激活。詹姆斯将这个过程称为反应抑制。)”可知，大脑相关脑细胞重复激活需要消耗更多能量，多次重复后脑细胞无法再次被激活，进而产生语义饱和现象。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“For example, you may have more vivid and intense mental images tied to a word like “hospital” compared to a word like “lamp”. Because of the underlying feelings and meanings, your mind cycles through meaningful categories that are linked to the word “hospital”, delaying the point where the word feels empty. By contrast, the word “lamp” has less meaningful implications.(例如，相比于“台灯”这类词，“医院”更容易让你联想到鲜活、强烈的画面。因为背后承载着情感与内涵，你的大脑会不断调取和“医院”相关的各类有意义信息，推迟这个词变得空洞的时刻。相比之下，“台灯”承载的意义内涵更少。)”可知，部分词语关联更加丰富的情感与含义，会延缓语义饱和的到来。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“From a neurological perspective, habituation helps our brains reduce the amount of disruption from things that we have already seen and thus conserve the limited mental energy for novel information.(从神经学角度来看，习惯化能够减少熟悉事物带来的干扰，从而节省有限的脑力，用来处理新信息。)”可知，神经习惯化能够节省脑力，让大脑优先处理新信息。 【15题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段“In a world where we’re constantly flooded with sensory inputs, associative satiation is a technique our minds have evolved to ignore what’s not important.(在一个我们不断被各种感官信息淹没的世界里，关联饱和是我们的大脑进化出来的一种机制，用来过滤掉无关紧要的信息。)”可知，语义饱和是大脑进化出来的有益机制，用来过滤无关信息。由此可推知“an ace in the hole”表示一件好事、一种恩赐，和blessing同义。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项有两项为多余选项。 Is Sugarcoat Sweet? In our pursuit to maintain harmony, avoid conflict, and prevent hurt feelings, we’re sometimes tempted to be polite to sugarcoat the truth. ____16____ However, too much display of this behavior can muddy the waters of communication. Here are the dangers of sugarcoating: ____17____ Your job isn’t to soften the blow when delivering bad news to the extent that you leave others feeling confused about your intentions. When messages are wrapped in layers of politeness, the true intention or meaning can be lost — the receiver may not fully grasp the seriousness or urgency of the message. Leave issues unsolved. Sugarcoated messages can prevent important issues from being tackled. When feedback is not clear, it becomes difficult for the receivers to take appropriate action. They may not know exactly what is expected of them or how to go about making the necessary changes. ____18____ Meanwhile, the present status will continue, leaving important issues unresolved. Get upset and annoyed. Over time, the lack of clarity has a significant effect on relationships and can lead to frustration and complaint, especially when one party has put in an effort to express themselves but feels unacknowledged. The dissatisfaction may lead to their suspicion of the authenticity of the relationship and doubt about whether their efforts are being wasted. ____19____ While it’s natural to want to spare others’ feelings, overly polite communication can sometimes do more harm than good. ____20____ Only in this way can we reduce misunderstandings and have relationships built on trust and clarity. Remember, the goal is not to abandon politeness completely but to balance it with honesty, ensuring that our communications are both kind and effective. A. Reduce trust. B. Cause misinterpretations. C. This avoids displeasing them. D. The uncertainty can lead to inaction. E. This can create a cycle of negative emotions. F. Being polite is generally seen as a positive performance. G. So it is wise to be open for more direct and honest interactions. 【答案】16. F 17. B 18. D 19. E 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章论述了在交流中过度粉饰事实的危害，指出虽然想顾及他人感受很自然，但过于礼貌的交流有时弊大于利，应平衡礼貌与诚实。 【16题详解】 上文“In our pursuit to maintain harmony, avoid conflict, and prevent hurt feelings, we’re sometimes tempted to be polite to sugarcoat the truth.(在我们努力维持和谐、避免冲突和防止伤害感情时，我们有时会忍不住出于礼貌而粉饰事实)”提到了人们粉饰事实的情况。F选项“Being polite is generally seen as a positive performance.(礼貌通常被视为一种积极的表现)”与上文衔接自然，解释了人们粉饰事实的原因，即因为礼貌被认为是积极的，所以才会这么做。故选F项。 【17题详解】 下文“Your job isn’t to soften the blow when delivering bad news to the extent that you leave others feeling confused about your intentions.(你的工作不是在传达坏消息时过度缓和语气，以至于让别人对你的意图感到困惑)”指出过度粉饰会让人困惑。B选项“Cause misinterpretations.(造成误解)”与下文逻辑相符，说明过度粉饰会导致误解，因为别人会困惑而误解意思。故选B项。 【18题详解】 上文“When feedback is not clear, it becomes difficult for the receivers to take appropriate action. They may not know exactly what is expected of them or how to go about making the necessary changes.(当反馈不明确时，接收者就很难采取适当的行动。他们可能不清楚对他们的期望是什么，也不知道如何进行必要的改变)”说明反馈不明确会让接收者难以行动。D选项“The uncertainty can lead to inaction.(这种不确定性会导致不作为)”与上文衔接紧密，“不确定性”指代上文反馈不明确的情况，“不作为”对应接收者难以采取行动。故选D项。 【19题详解】 上文“The dissatisfaction may lead to their suspicion of the authenticity of the relationship and doubt about whether their efforts are being wasted.(这种不满可能会导致他们怀疑这段关系的真实性，怀疑自己的努力是否白费)”提到了不满带来的负面结果。E选项“This can create a cycle of negative emotions.(这会形成一个负面情绪的循环)”承接上文，“这”指代上文的不满等负面情况，说明会形成负面情绪的循环，符合逻辑。故选E项。 【20题详解】 上文“While it’s natural to want to spare others’ feelings, overly polite communication can sometimes do more harm than good.(虽然想顾及他人感受很自然，但过于礼貌的交流有时弊大于利)”指出了过度礼貌交流的问题。G选项“So it is wise to be open for more direct and honest interactions.(所以，敞开心扉进行更直接、诚实的交流是明智的)”与上文构成因果关系，因为过度礼貌交流有弊端，所以要进行更直接、诚实的交流。故选G项。 第三部分：英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 “Mom, we have discussed this.

Ultimately 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍的是爱知 —名古屋亚运会中国代表团领奖服的设计。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态、被动语态和主谓一致。句意：该设计围绕“璀璨星光”这一主题打造；星星意在代表在国际体育舞台上熠熠生辉的运动员。主语The design和build之间是被动关系，句子描述客观事实，时态用一般现在时，主语The design是单数，因此be动词用is，build的过去分词是built。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：对设计师张宇哲来说，这次色彩改变不仅仅是对传统的背离。不定冠词a后面需要接名词的单数形式，depart的名词形式departure，表示“背离，离开”。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：这种颜色宛若月光，选择它是因为它柔和内敛的优雅。由“its softness and understated elegance”可知，此处用介词for表原因，意为“因为，由于”。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：“品月柔和雅致，柔中藏力。”张说。此处是with复合结构，power和hide之间是逻辑动宾关系，因此用过去分词表被动，作宾语补足语。 【40题详解】 考查非限制性定语从句。句意：同时，这种颜色关联天空与大海，张表示，这展现了中国广袤的国土与科技实力，传递自信。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，主语指代前面整件事，因此用关系代词which引导定语从句。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：“这些星星不只是一种装饰图案。” 张说。修饰名词pattern要用形容词，decorate的形容词是decorative，意为“装饰性的”。 【42题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：它们和“璀璨星光”主题、体育精神的传承以及运动员不断取得突破的故事息息相关。breakthrough是可数名词，表示“突破”，不止一个，因此用复数作宾语。 【43题详解】 考查连词。句意：这项技术不那么显眼，但对设计同样重要。less visible和equally important之间是转折关系，用but/yet表示“但是”。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：它们构成完美的组合，并不冲突。match此处为可数名词的单数形式，表泛指；perfect发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a。 【45题详解】 考查副词。句意：最终，张希望海外观众能够感受到色彩背后的自信，看到一个勇于创新的中国。此处作句子状语，要用副词形式修饰整个句子，ultimate的副词是ultimately，意为“最终”，置于句首首字母大写。 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节：（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你所就读的国际学校将举办体育文化周，因时间有限需从趣味运动会（Fun Sports Games）和运动员分享会（Athlete Sharing Session）中二选一开展。学生会现面向全校征集意见，请你给学生会写一封邮件，说明你的选择及理由。 1．你支持的活动； 2．说明理由； 注意：1．词数80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Dear Student Union, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】范文1 Dear Student Union, I’m writing to share my opinion about the activity of Sports Culture Week. From my perspective, the Athlete Sharing Session is a better choice. By listening to athletes’ real-life experiences, we can gain a deeper understanding of perseverance and sportsmanship. It offers us valuable spiritual encouragement, which simple games cannot provide. Their inspiring stories can motivate us to face various difficulties bravely not only in our study but also in daily life. I sincerely hope the activity will be a great success. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 范文2 Dear Student Union, I’m writing to express my opinion on the activities for our Sports Culture Week. Personally, I strongly recommend Fun Sports Games. Compared with the Athlete Sharing Session, these games enable more students to participate in outdoor activities in person instead of just listening to stories. They can not only relieve us of heavy academic pressure, but also foster our sense of teamwork and strengthen friendships between classmates. Furthermore, lively group competitions will create a joyful atmosphere and build up a vibrant campus sports culture. More students will get motivated to take regular exercise. I hope my suggestion will be taken into consideration.

It had belonged to his grandfather, a quiet man who had passed away when Leo was only six. Leo barely remembered him — just a gentle laugh, and the way his grandfather’s hands always seemed to be busy with something. After the funeral, the violin was stored away and gradually forgotten. Leo’s mother, however, had never stopped believing it was something special. “It’s not just a violin, Leo,” she would say. “It has a voice. Your grandfather used to play it every evening after dinner. He said music was the only language that never needed translating.” But Leo wasn’t so sure. The instrument looked old, fragile, and entirely out of place in his modern, digital world. Leo had been learning the violin for three years, but progress was painfully slow. His classmates seemed to master pieces effortlessly, while he struggled with the same scales (音阶) day after day. Worse still, his teacher, Mrs. Hale, had assigned him a difficult solo for the school’s annual concert. The piece was called “Remembrance,” a slow, emotional composition full of long trembling notes that required a depth of feeling Leo wasn’t sure he possessed. He practiced for hours, but the notes remained flat and lifeless. One rainy afternoon, unable to bear his own playing any longer, Leo climbed into the attic to escape. His eyes fell on the old case. Slowly, he knelt down and opened it. Inside lay a violin clearly handcrafted, its wood darkened by time, its surface marked with tiny scratches. Beneath the strings was a faded photograph: his grandfather, much younger, standing on a small stage with this very violin in his hands. On the back, in shaky handwriting, were three words: “For the listeners.” Leo carefully lifted the violin. It felt surprisingly light, as if it had been waiting. He drew the bow across the strings. The sound that emerged was not perfect — raw and slightly uneven — but surprisingly beautiful, like a voice that had been silent for too long. 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。 Leo brought the violin downstairs and began to practice the assigned solo piece with it. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The night of the concert finally arrived. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文： Leo brought the violin downstairs and began to practice the assigned solo piece with it. To his surprise, the music flowed out differently. He thought of the photograph, of his grandfather standing on that small stage, and of those three words: “For the listeners.” Suddenly, “Remembrance” wasn’t just an assignment anymore. It was a conversation between a boy and the grandfather he barely knew. His fingers, guided by something deeper than technique, found the trembling notes that had once seemed impossible. For the first time in months, Leo felt a quiet confidence growing inside him. The night of the concert finally arrived. Leo walked onto the stage. He took a deep breath and began to play. The notes that emerged were full of life. When the final note faded, there was a moment of complete stillness, followed by a wave of applause that felt like a warm embrace. Leo smiled, realizing that the violin’s voice had been there all along. It had simply been waiting for someone who was ready to listen — and to remember. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了16岁的Leo小提琴学习进展缓慢，被安排演奏高难度曲目《Remembrance》，练习时音符毫无感情。一次躲进阁楼，他发现祖父遗留的旧小提琴和照片留言“For the listeners”，拿起琴演奏时听到不一样的声音，由此开启改变的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Leo用这把旧小提琴练习曲子的变化，琴声的质感、他内心的感悟以及慢慢找回演奏的情感、收获自信的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Leo登台演奏的经历，他饱含情感完成演奏，打动全场观众，收获掌声，理解祖父那句话的含义。 2.续写线索：琴声改变→读懂曲子→建立自信→登台演出→深情演奏→赢得掌声→领悟真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①想到：think of/call up ②登台：walk onto the stage/step onto the stage 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②自信：confidence/self-assurance 【点睛】[高分句型1] When the final note faded, there was a moment of complete stillness, followed by a wave of applause that felt like a warm embrace.
