B The first time I seriously questioned my own judgment was not during a math exam or a college interview, but on a sticky July afternoon, surrounded by the deafening silence of a party that nobody attended. My name is Dorian, and I was turning seventeen — a milestone that had somehow been reduced to a hollow (空洞的) joke. It had all begun with a miscalculation so silly that I still feel awkward whenever I think about it. Having misread the group chat’s calendar, I had firmly believed that my closest friends — Elias, Thalia, and the rest — were planning secretly to throw a surprise party for me. Consequently, I spent three weeks making overly obvious suggestions about my favorite cake flavors, expecting a grand celebration. What I failed to realize, however, was that the event they were actually planning was a farewell (欢送) gathering for a teacher who was transferring to another school. The conflict of these two separate universes occurred at precisely 4 pm three weeks later. While I stood in my mother’s newly cleaned living room, wearing a silly party hat and waiting for the doorbell to ring, I received a single text from Elias: “Dorian, where are you? We’re all at the school gym. Coach Miller’s leaving.” The shock was physically painful; I felt my face burn with an embarrassment so intense that I briefly considered pretending an illness just to escape the situation. Eventually, I had to choose between feeling sorry for myself and saving the day. Grabbing a box of dark chocolates from the table, I ran all the way to the gym, arriving breathless just as the speeches were ending. Rather than accusing them of forgetting me, I handed the gift to Coach Miller and simply said, “I heard you like dark chocolate.” It was a lie, of course, but watching his face light up made the lie feel kinder than the truth would have been. This taught me that the world does not exist to meet my expectations. 4. Why did Dorian expect a party? A. He misunderstood group messages. B. His friends planned a big get-together. C. His classmates reminded him clearly. D. He decided to give a teacher a surprise. 5. What happened to Dorian that afternoon three weeks later? A. He forgot the party totally. B. The party began ahead of time. C. No guests showed up at his home. D. Miller sent him congratulations. 6. What did Dorian do after he learned about the truth? A. He behaved thoughtfully. B. He forgave his friends’ mistake. C. He told the truth to his coach. D. He held another celebration party. 7. What does the author intend to tell readers? A. Staying with like-minded friends. B. Avoiding becoming self-centered. C. Valuing the roles of lies in daily life. D. Learning to face sudden embarrassment. C With artificial intelligence developing fast, modern AI models can complete all kinds of difficult tasks, from writing reports to making videos. As AI technology becomes more dependable, public worry is increasing. Many people fear that AI will take the place of human beings at work, and online searches for “AI unemployment” have hit a record high. Whether people will soon lose their jobs to AI has even turned into a popular discussion topic in big cities. Many experts hold the view that AI is already bringing about job losses. They refer to studies connecting AI automation with less need for translators, and mention tech companies which once used AI to replace customer-service workers. However, real-world economic data show something different. Official US statistics (数据) show employment for translation work has risen by 7% compared with last year. The tech company Klarna also changed its AI automation rules and kept its human workers. Some observers think young graduates’ comparatively higher unemployment rate proves an AI-caused job crisis (危机), because the basic knowledge-related jobs they take can be easily finished by AI. Yet this trend started back in 2009, much earlier than the birth of generative AI. Besides, graduates’ unemployment rate is still fairly low. More studies on white collar jobs — jobs thought to be easily influenced by AI — find no signs of job losses caused by AI. Instead, the percentage of white-collar jobs has gone up a little. Around the world, low unemployment rates and gradual pay increases in most developed countries also contradict the opinion that AI reduces job demand. Two main reasons account for this situation. To begin with, in spite of widespread reports, less than 10 percent of American businesses use AI in official production and service work. Secondly, most companies make use of AI to raise their workers’ work efficiency instead of firing staff. At present, there is no reason to worry about job losses brought by AI. 8. What is many people’s worry about AI’s fast development? A. AI will cause plenty of people to lose their jobs. B. AI will produce low-quality work automatically. C. AI will replace human beings in every field soon. D. AI searches online take up too much public attention. 9. Why does the author mention Klarna in Paragraph 2? A. To show AI automation rules are hard for firms to follow. B. To prove AI actually fails to work well in tech industry. C. To offer evidence against the idea that AI leads to job losses. D. To explain why translation jobs see a slight rise in employment. 10. What does the underlined word “contradict” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Rely on. B. Back up. C. Focus on. D. Go against. 11. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Businesses widely apply AI in their daily work. B. People needn’t fear that AI will take human jobs. C. AI has caused serious job losses across the world. D. AI technology is developing at a surprising speed. D Most people believe young people live happier lives. Yet worldwide surveys from 149 countries show a surprising result: the old usually feel happier than young and middle-aged grown-ups. This unexpected discovery encouraged plenty of studies. One important reference is Jonathan Rauch’s 2018 book The Happiness Curve (曲线). Its data show happiness forms a U-shape: people aged 20 — 34 feel pretty happy; their sense of joy falls sharply during middle age. Then happiness rises slowly from age 51 to the mid-80s, and finally becomes higher than that of young adults. Psychologists separate happiness into two parts of “subjective well-being”. The first is short-term happiness, including sudden joy and good feelings. The second is life satisfaction, which means you feel your life is valuable and you have clear life goals. A 2022 research project by Karwetsky examined both kinds of happiness. It interviewed 1,597 healthy German people from 10 to 99 years old. Researchers divided these people into four age groups. The participants gave marks (from 0 to 100) for their real-time joy and overall life satisfaction, and talked about what they cared about most in life. Researchers also studied other influences such as health, partners, grandchildren and religious ideas. The key findings: only life satisfaction increases as people get older. Unlike young people, the old do not need quick pleasant feelings to feel satisfied with their lives. Having a partner, grandchildren and religious beliefs improves life satisfaction for people of all ages. Pressure from money problems lowers satisfaction, especially for those aged 50 — 69. Poor health reduces short-term happiness, but it does little harm to the old’s life satisfaction. The study proves the U-shaped happiness pattern. Researchers also put forward three practical ways to achieve long-term happiness: keep close personal connections; save enough money for later life; and live a meaningful life. In short, people become more satisfied with life as they age, even when they meet difficulties. 12. What does Jonathan Rauch agree with about happiness? A. It keeps going up all the way. B. It follows a U-shaped pattern. C. It keeps dropping as people grow older. D. It reaches its highest point in middle age. 13. What is the main purpose of Karwetsky’s research? A. To examine the two kinds of happiness. B. To explain the U-shaped happiness curve. C. To prove the existence of two kinds of happiness. D. To further explore the survey result on happiness. 14. Which age group suffers most from money pressure? A. Those aged 20 to 34. B. Those aged 35 to 49. C. Those aged 50 to 69. D. Those in the mid-80s. 15. What’s the best title for the passage? A. The U-shaped Curve of Happiness. B. The Two Kinds of Personal Happiness. C. The Key Factors Destroying Happiness. D. The Practical Ways of Solving Troubles. 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。 We often feel stressed and want to escape when facing piles of difficult work. Our brain naturally fears heavy and tough tasks, but we can train it to deal with pressure properly. ____16____ The “salami slice” method. When we are faced with a huge task, our brain will get nervous and refuse to take action. The smart way is to break the whole project into several tiny, manageable steps, just like eating pizza slice by slice instead of finishing it at one time. ____17____ Every time you complete a small part, you will gain a strong sense of achievement, which pushes you to move on without feeling worn out. The “2-minute” rule. This rule works in two ways. First, finish any tiny task that takes less than two minutes immediately. Second, trick your brain into starting tough work by promising yourself only two minutes of effort. ____18____ Once you cross the hardest starting point, working longer will become easy. ____19____ Human brains are sensitive to pleasant rewards. Dopamine, a special chemical inside our brain, creates motivation (动力) when we receive treats. After finishing a difficult task, you can reward yourself with a favorite snack or a five-minute relaxing break. These little treats can greatly lift your mood and drive you to finish the next task actively. Speak positive words to yourself. Everyone needs constant encouragement, especially when trapped in hard work. Repeat warm and powerful sentences such as “I can make it” or “I am fully capable of this challenge” to yourself. ____20____ Gradually, they fill you with confidence to keep moving forward. A. Take regular relaxing breaks. B. Build your own reward system. C. Here are four useful methods to deal with hard work. D. Small divided steps make huge jobs much less frightening. E. Starting a task is far more difficult than keeping on doing it. F. Many students fail to make progress due to endless heavy homework. G. Such positive self-talks help you clear away self-doubt during difficult tasks. 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） It was late afternoon that day, yet still hot.

Yet I still made a U-turn, which ____24____ other drivers. I stopped by the woman, asking, “Need a ride?” “Bless you.” she said, ____25____ me farther south. As we drove, darkness fell. I grew ____26____ when entering a place with ____27____ streets and homeless people. At her apartment, a young man, wearing long hair, on a motorcycle, was smiling at me, but appearing threatening. I quickly ____28____ her things off, and then quickly drove away. Soon, a motorcycle roared behind me. It was that young man! Anxiety rose from my mind. I ____29____ my phone to call 911, only to find it gone. “She stole it!” I thought, ____30____ my act of kindness. The biker kept ____31____ me to stop, waving something — my phone! I pulled over, and he handed me the phone: “Grandma sent this — she took it ____32____.” He was still smiling and soon disappeared into the night. I never had a(n) ____33____ to say I was sorry for my thoughts. I learned something else that day: Sometimes we judge people as bad just because their ____34____ doesn’t match what we think is right. They may not drive a stylish car, but who is going to say they are not ____35____ to us or even nobler? 21. A. glancing B. running C. struggling D. riding 22.

For decades, it had been a shelter for book lovers. The wooden sign above the door, weathered but proud, read “Hopkins’ Books” in brick red. It had been a constant place where time moved slower with the first turn of a page. Now, it was closing. The news felt like a physical blow to David, a quiet college student who had grown up reading in the cozy corners of the shop. The smell of old paper was the smell of his childhood, witnessing his growth. He couldn’t imagine the street without its warm, inviting light. When the news spread throughout the entire neighborhood, worry was written all over everyone’s faces. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, a profitable upgrade. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. 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。 Paragraph 1: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025级高二上学期第1次月考 英语试题 时间：120分钟 满分：150分 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） 1.

Avoiding becoming self-centered. C. Valuing the roles of lies in daily life. D. Learning to face sudden embarrassment. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了多里安因误读群聊信息而在家苦等朋友开派对，最终发现是误会，并选择用善意谎言化解尴尬的经历，告诉我们应避免以自我为中心。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Having misread the group chat’s calendar, I had firmly believed that my closest friends — Elias, Thalia, and the rest — were planning secretly to throw a surprise party for me.(由于误读了群聊里的日历信息，我坚信我最亲密的朋友——伊莱亚斯、塔利亚和其他人——正在秘密计划为我举办一个惊喜派对)”可知，多里安期待派对的原因是他误读了群聊里的日历信息，误以为朋友们在为他筹办惊喜派对。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The first time I seriously questioned my own judgment was not during a math exam or a college interview, but on a sticky July afternoon, surrounded by the deafening silence of a party that nobody attended.(我第一次认真质疑自己的判断不是在数学考试或大学面试期间，而是在一个闷热潮湿的七月下午，被一个无人参加的派对的震耳欲聋的寂静包围时)”以及第三段“While I stood in my mother’s newly cleaned living room, wearing a silly party hat and waiting for the doorbell to ring, I received a single text from Elias: “Dorian, where are you? We’re all at the school gym. Coach Miller’s leaving.”(当我站在妈妈新打扫的客厅里，戴着一顶愚蠢的派对帽，等待门铃响起时，我收到了伊莱亚斯的一条短信：“多里安，你在哪里？我们都在学校体育馆。米勒教练要走了。”)”可知，那天下午多里安家里没有客人出现，他在空荡荡的房间里独自等待。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Grabbing a box of dark chocolates from the table, I ran all the way to the gym, arriving breathless just as the speeches were ending. Rather than accusing them of forgetting me, I handed the gift to Coach Miller and simply said, “I heard you like dark chocolate.”(我从桌子上抓起一盒黑巧克力，一路跑到体育馆，在演讲结束时气喘吁吁地赶到。我没有指责他们忘记了我，而是把礼物递给米勒教练，简单地说：“我听说你喜欢黑巧克力。”)”可知，得知真相后，多里安没有责怪朋友，而是选择跑去体育馆，将礼物送给教练并送上祝福，这一行为体现了他懂事、体贴的一面。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This taught me that the world does not exist to meet my expectations. (这让我明白，世界并不是为了满足我的期望而存在的)”以及全文内容可知，作者通过多里安的故事告诫读者不要过于以自我为中心，不要认为自己是一切的焦点。 C With artificial intelligence developing fast, modern AI models can complete all kinds of difficult tasks, from writing reports to making videos. As AI technology becomes more dependable, public worry is increasing. Many people fear that AI will take the place of human beings at work, and online searches for “AI unemployment” have hit a record high. Whether people will soon lose their jobs to AI has even turned into a popular discussion topic in big cities. Many experts hold the view that AI is already bringing about job losses. They refer to studies connecting AI automation with less need for translators, and mention tech companies which once used AI to replace customer-service workers. However, real-world economic data show something different. Official US statistics (数据) show employment for translation work has risen by 7% compared with last year. The tech company Klarna also changed its AI automation rules and kept its human workers. Some observers think young graduates’ comparatively higher unemployment rate proves an AI-caused job crisis (危机), because the basic knowledge-related jobs they take can be easily finished by AI. Yet this trend started back in 2009, much earlier than the birth of generative AI. Besides, graduates’ unemployment rate is still fairly low. More studies on white collar jobs — jobs thought to be easily influenced by AI — find no signs of job losses caused by AI. Instead, the percentage of white-collar jobs has gone up a little. Around the world, low unemployment rates and gradual pay increases in most developed countries also contradict the opinion that AI reduces job demand. Two main reasons account for this situation. To begin with, in spite of widespread reports, less than 10 percent of American businesses use AI in official production and service work. Secondly, most companies make use of AI to raise their workers’ work efficiency instead of firing staff. At present, there is no reason to worry about job losses brought by AI. 8. What is many people’s worry about AI’s fast development? A. AI will cause plenty of people to lose their jobs. B. AI will produce low-quality work automatically. C. AI will replace human beings in every field soon. D. AI searches online take up too much public attention. 9. Why does the author mention Klarna in Paragraph 2? A. To show AI automation rules are hard for firms to follow. B. To prove AI actually fails to work well in tech industry. C. To offer evidence against the idea that AI leads to job losses. D. To explain why translation jobs see a slight rise in employment. 10. What does the underlined word “contradict” in Paragraph 4 mean? A. Rely on. B. Back up. C. Focus on. D. Go against. 11. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Businesses widely apply AI in their daily work. B. People needn’t fear that AI will take human jobs. C. AI has caused serious job losses across the world. D. AI technology is developing at a surprising speed. 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要论述尽管公众担心人工智能会导致失业，但真实经济数据与多项研究表明AI并未造成大规模失业，人们无需为此担忧。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Many people fear that AI will take the place of human beings at work, and online searches for “AI unemployment” have hit a record high. (许多人担心人工智能会在工作中取代人类，在线搜索“人工智能失业”的人数创下历史新高)”可知，许多人担心人工智能快速发展会导致大量人失去工作。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“However, real-world economic data show something different. Official US statistics (数据) show employment for translation work has risen by 7% compared with last year. The tech company Klarna also changed its AI automation rules and kept its human workers. (然而，现实世界经济数据显示情况不同。美国官方统计数据显示，与去年相比，翻译工作的就业人数增长了7%。科技公司Klarna也改变了其人工智能自动化规则并保留了人工员工)”可知，提到Klarna是为了提供证据反驳“人工智能导致失业”的观点。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“More studies on white collar jobs — jobs thought to be easily influenced by AI — find no signs of job losses caused by AI. Instead, the percentage of white-collar jobs has gone up a little. Around the world, low unemployment rates and gradual pay increases in most developed countries also contradict the opinion that AI reduces job demand. (更多针对白领工作的研究——被认为容易受到人工智能影响的职位——发现没有人工智能导致失业的迹象。相反，白领岗位的比例略有上升。全球范围内，大多数发达国家低失业率和逐渐增长的工资也contradict人工智能减少就业需求的观点)”可知，前面说白领岗位比例小幅上升，可见这些事实和该观点相悖，contradict意为“与……相矛盾/违背”，与Go against意义相近。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。综合全文，尤其是末段“At present, there is no reason to worry about job losses brought by AI.(目前没有理由担心人工智能带来的失业)”可知，文章主旨是人们不必害怕人工智能会夺走人类的工作。 D Most people believe young people live happier lives. Yet worldwide surveys from 149 countries show a surprising result: the old usually feel happier than young and middle-aged grown-ups. This unexpected discovery encouraged plenty of studies. One important reference is Jonathan Rauch’s 2018 book The Happiness Curve (曲线). Its data show happiness forms a U-shape: people aged 20 — 34 feel pretty happy; their sense of joy falls sharply during middle age. Then happiness rises slowly from age 51 to the mid-80s, and finally becomes higher than that of young adults. Psychologists separate happiness into two parts of “subjective well-being”. The first is short-term happiness, including sudden joy and good feelings. The second is life satisfaction, which means you feel your life is valuable and you have clear life goals. A 2022 research project by Karwetsky examined both kinds of happiness. It interviewed 1,597 healthy German people from 10 to 99 years old. Researchers divided these people into four age groups. The participants gave marks (from 0 to 100) for their real-time joy and overall life satisfaction, and talked about what they cared about most in life. Researchers also studied other influences such as health, partners, grandchildren and religious ideas. The key findings: only life satisfaction increases as people get older. Unlike young people, the old do not need quick pleasant feelings to feel satisfied with their lives. Having a partner, grandchildren and religious beliefs improves life satisfaction for people of all ages. Pressure from money problems lowers satisfaction, especially for those aged 50 — 69. Poor health reduces short-term happiness, but it does little harm to the old’s life satisfaction. The study proves the U-shaped happiness pattern. Researchers also put forward three practical ways to achieve long-term happiness: keep close personal connections; save enough money for later life; and live a meaningful life. In short, people become more satisfied with life as they age, even when they meet difficulties. 12. What does Jonathan Rauch agree with about happiness? A. It keeps going up all the way. B. It follows a U-shaped pattern. C. It keeps dropping as people grow older. D. It reaches its highest point in middle age. 13. What is the main purpose of Karwetsky’s research? A. To examine the two kinds of happiness. B. To explain the U-shaped happiness curve. C. To prove the existence of two kinds of happiness. D. To further explore the survey result on happiness. 14. Which age group suffers most from money pressure? A. Those aged 20 to 34. B. Those aged 35 to 49. C. Those aged 50 to 69. D. Those in the mid-80s. 15. What’s the best title for the passage? A. The U-shaped Curve of Happiness. B. The Two Kinds of Personal Happiness. C. The Key Factors Destroying Happiness. D. The Practical Ways of Solving Troubles. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了幸福呈U形曲线的研究发现，说明老年人比年轻人更幸福、生活满意度随年龄增长而上升，并给出获得长期幸福的实用建议。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“One important reference is Jonathan Rauch’s 2018 book The Happiness Curve (曲线). Its data show happiness forms a U-shape: people aged 20 — 34 feel pretty happy; their sense of joy falls sharply during middle age.(乔纳森·劳赫2018年出版的《你的幸福曲线》一书是一个重要的参考。其数据显示，幸福呈U形：20-34岁的人感到非常幸福；他们的幸福感在中年时急剧下降)”可知，Rauch认为幸福遵循U形模式。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Yet worldwide surveys from 149 countries show a surprising result: the old usually feel happier than young and middle-aged grown-ups. This unexpected discovery encouraged plenty of studies.(然而，来自149个国家的全球调查显示了一个令人惊讶的结果：老年人通常比年轻人和中年人更快乐。这一意外发现促使了大量研究)”、第二段“A 2022 research project by Karwetsky examined both kinds of happiness.(Karwetsky在2022年进行的一个研究项目考察了这两种幸福)”和第三段“The study proves the U-shaped happiness pattern.(该研究证明了U形幸福模式)”可知，Karwetsky的研究目的是进一步探究关于幸福的调查结果。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Pressure from money problems lowers satisfaction, especially for those aged 50 — 69. (经济问题的压力会降低满意度，尤其对50至69岁的人)”可知，受金钱压力影响最大的是50—69岁人群。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，第一段提出“One important reference is Jonathan Rauch’s 2018 book The Happiness Curve (曲线). Its data show happiness forms a U-shape: people aged 20 — 34 feel pretty happy; their sense of joy falls sharply during middle age. Then happiness rises slowly from age 51 to the mid-80s, and finally becomes higher than that of young adults. (乔纳森·劳赫2018年出版的《你的幸福曲线》一书是一个重要的参考。其数据显示，幸福呈U形：20-34岁的人感到非常幸福；他们的幸福感在中年时急剧下降。然后幸福感从51岁到85岁左右缓慢上升，最终变得高于年轻人)”，随后通过Karwetsky的研究证实该模式，并给出获得长期幸福的建议，故最佳标题为“The U-shaped Curve of Happiness.(幸福的U形曲线)”。 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。 We often feel stressed and want to escape when facing piles of difficult work. Our brain naturally fears heavy and tough tasks, but we can train it to deal with pressure properly. ____16____ The “salami slice” method. When we are faced with a huge task, our brain will get nervous and refuse to take action. The smart way is to break the whole project into several tiny, manageable steps, just like eating pizza slice by slice instead of finishing it at one time. ____17____ Every time you complete a small part, you will gain a strong sense of achievement, which pushes you to move on without feeling worn out. The “2-minute” rule. This rule works in two ways. First, finish any tiny task that takes less than two minutes immediately. Second, trick your brain into starting tough work by promising yourself only two minutes of effort. ____18____ Once you cross the hardest starting point, working longer will become easy. ____19____ Human brains are sensitive to pleasant rewards. Dopamine, a special chemical inside our brain, creates motivation (动力) when we receive treats. After finishing a difficult task, you can reward yourself with a favorite snack or a five-minute relaxing break. These little treats can greatly lift your mood and drive you to finish the next task actively. Speak positive words to yourself. Everyone needs constant encouragement, especially when trapped in hard work. Repeat warm and powerful sentences such as “I can make it” or “I am fully capable of this challenge” to yourself. ____20____ Gradually, they fill you with confidence to keep moving forward. A. Take regular relaxing breaks. B. Build your own reward system. C. Here are four useful methods to deal with hard work. D. Small divided steps make huge jobs much less frightening. E. Starting a task is far more difficult than keeping on doing it. F. Many students fail to make progress due to endless heavy homework. G. Such positive self-talks help you clear away self-doubt during difficult tasks. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. E 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】文章开篇点明面对繁重工作易焦虑，介绍四种应对方法：萨拉米切片法、两分钟法则、建立奖励机制、积极自我暗示，帮大脑应对压力完成任务。 【16题详解】 根据上文“We often feel stressed and want to escape when facing piles of difficult work. Our brain naturally fears heavy and tough tasks, but we can train it to deal with pressure properly.(面对堆积如山的繁重工作时，我们常常感到压力重重，想要逃避。大脑天生会对艰巨的任务产生畏惧，但我们可以通过训练让它更好地应对压力)”可知，空处位于首段末尾，下文开始逐一介绍应对压力的具体方法，C项“这里有四个应对困难工作的实用方法”起到总起下文的作用，符合语境。 【17题详解】 根据上文“When we are faced with a huge task, our brain will get nervous and refuse to take action. The smart way is to break the whole project into several tiny, manageable steps, just like eating pizza slice by slice instead of finishing it at one time.(当我们面对一项巨大任务时，大脑会变得紧张，从而拒绝采取行动。聪明的做法是将整个项目分解成若干个微小且可管理的步骤，就像一块块吃披萨，而不是一次性吃完一样)”以及后文“Every time you complete a small part, you will gain a strong sense of achievement, which pushes you to move on without feeling worn out.(每完成一个小任务，你都会获得强烈的成就感，这让你在不感到疲惫的情况下继续前进)”可知，该空对应“萨拉米切片法”的内容，前文提到把大任务拆分成多个易完成的小步骤，D项“拆分出的小步骤会让艰巨的工作不再那么吓人”承接上文拆分任务的逻辑，和后文完成小部分获得成就感的内容衔接顺畅。 【18题详解】 根据上文“This rule works in two ways. First, finish any tiny task that takes less than two minutes immediately. Second, trick your brain into starting tough work by promising yourself only two minutes of effort.(这条规则有两种作用方式。第一，立即完成任何耗时不到两分钟的小任务。第二，通过承诺自己只需付出两分钟的努力，来欺骗大脑，让它开始进行艰巨的工作)”以及后文“Once you cross the hardest starting point, working longer will become easy.(一旦你跨过最艰难的起点，坚持更长时间就会变得容易)”可知，该空对应“2分钟法则”的内容，后文提到一旦跨过最难的起点，长时间工作就会变容易，E项“开启一项任务远比坚持做下去更难”引出了“启动是最大难关”的逻辑，契合后文语境。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Human brains are sensitive to pleasant rewards. Dopamine, a special chemical inside our brain, creates motivation (动力) when we receive treats. After finishing a difficult task, you can reward yourself with a favorite snack or a five-minute relaxing break. These little treats can greatly lift your mood and drive you to finish the next task actively.(人类的大脑对愉快的奖励很敏感。大脑中一种特殊的化学物质——多巴胺，会在我们获得奖励时产生动力。完成一项困难任务后，你可以用喜欢的小吃或五分钟的放松休息来犒劳自己。这些小小的奖励能显著提升情绪，并激励你积极完成下一项任务)”可知，空处是该段的小标题，该段核心内容是完成任务后给自己奖励来激发动力，B项“建立你自己的奖励机制”精准概括段落主旨。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Everyone needs constant encouragement, especially when trapped in hard work. Repeat warm and powerful sentences such as “I can make it” or “I am fully capable of this challenge” to yourself.(每个人都需要持续的鼓励，尤其是在陷入艰难工作时。对自己反复念叨一些温暖而有力的话语，比如“我能行”或“我完全有能力应对这个挑战”)”以及后文“Gradually, they fill you with confidence to keep moving forward.(渐渐地，他们会让你充满信心，继续向前迈进)”可知，该空对应“对自己说积极话语”的内容，前文提到对自己重复鼓励的语句，G项“这类积极的自我对话能帮你在完成困难任务时消除自我怀疑”承接积极自我暗示的话题，和后文获得自信的内容呼应。 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） It was late afternoon that day, yet still hot.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲的是作者在炎热午后好心搭载一位提着杂货的老妇人，因对方住处偏僻、接应的年轻人外形有威慑感而仓促离开，途中误以为手机被偷心生悔意，最终发现是老妇人不慎误拿手机，年轻人特意追来归还，这件事让作者领悟到不能仅凭外表刻板评判他人，普通人也能拥有高尚的品格。 【21题详解】 ‌考查动词。句意：我向北开车时，看到一位提着杂货的老妇人正艰难地向南走，显然需要帮助。A. glancing扫视；B. running奔跑；C. struggling艰难行进；D. riding骑行。根据上文“I saw an elderly woman with groceries”和下文“obviously in need of help”可知，老妇人提着沉重的杂货，在炎热的午后赶路，用struggling最能体现她步履维艰、需要帮助的状态。 【22题详解】 考查动词。句意：“但我怎么能在不阻碍傍晚时期车流的情况下安全停车呢？”我暗自思忖。A. complained抱怨；B. reasoned逻辑思考；C. confirmed确认；D. doubted怀疑。根据上文“But how can I safely stop without blocking late-afternoon traffic”可知，作者在为自己不停车的行为找合理的解释，用reasoned体现他当时的心理活动，表示作者在进行思考。 【23题详解】 考查副词。句意：这个想法暂时缓解了我的愧疚感。A. occasionally偶尔；B. completely完全地；C. gradually逐渐地；D. temporarily暂时地。根据下文“Yet I still made a U-turn”可知，作者还是掉头回去帮忙了，说明这份愧疚只是被暂时缓解，并没有彻底消失。 【24题详解】 考查动词。句意：但我还是掉了头，这惹恼了其他司机。A. annoyed使恼怒；B. discouraged使气馁；C. disappointed使失望；D. inspired鼓舞。根据上文“I still made a U-turn”和“late-afternoon traffic”可知，在车流中突然掉头的行为会影响其他车辆正常通行，自然会让其他司机感到恼怒。 【25题详解】 考查动词。句意：“愿上帝保佑你。”她说道，指引我往更南的方向开。A. urging催促；B. directing指引；C. driving驾驶；D. leaving离开。根据下文“me farther south. As we drove”可知，作者主动提出载老妇人一程，老妇人自然是要告知他目的地的方向，用directing符合语境。 【26题详解】 考查形容词。句意：当我进入一个街道杂乱、到处都是无家可归者的区域时，心里开始不安。A. sensible明智的；B. mindless盲目的；C. uneasy不安的；D. curious好奇的。根据下文“streets and homeless people”可知，陌生的偏僻区域加上流浪汉，很容易让独自驾车的人产生不安的情绪。 【27题详解】 考查形容词。句意：当我进入一个街道杂乱、到处都是无家可归者的区域时，心里开始不安。A. messy杂乱的；B. orderly有序的；C. safe安全的；D. busy繁忙的。根据下文“homeless people”可知，这里有流浪汉，整体环境不会是整洁有序的，messy最贴合该区域的特征。 【28题详解】 考查动词。句意：我迅速把她的东西卸下来，然后快速开车离开了。A. dropped放下、卸下；B. unpacked打开（包裹）；C. carried搬运；D. fetched取来。根据下文“her things off, and then quickly drove away”可知，作者当时感到威胁，只想快速把老妇人的东西从车上卸下来，立刻脱身，drop off是固定搭配，表示“卸下（物品）”。 【29题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：我伸手去拿手机拨打911，却发现手机不见了。A. put away收好；B. picked up捡起；C. held on to紧紧抓住；D. reached for伸手去拿。根据下文“my phone to call 911”可知，遇到危险想要报警，自然是伸手去够放在某处的手机，reached for精准描述了这个动作。 【30题详解】 考查动词。句意：“她偷走了我的手机！”我心想，不禁后悔自己的善意之举。A. recalling回忆；B. mourning哀悼；C. regretting后悔；D. appreciating感激。根据上文“She stole it”可知，作者误以为自己的好心帮忙换来了手机被偷，自然会对之前的善意行为感到后悔。 【31题详解】 考查动词。句意：那个骑摩托车的人一直示意我停下，手里挥着个东西——正是我的手机！A. warning警告；B. signaling示意；C. forcing强迫；D. begging乞求。根据上文“Soon, a motorcycle roared behind me”和下文“me to stop, waving something”可知，他在作者车后骑行，通过挥手的方式向作者发出停车的信号，signaling符合场景逻辑。 【32题详解】 考查介词短语。句意：我把车停了下来，他把手机递给我：“奶奶送过来这个手机——她是不小心拿走的。”A. in advance提前；B. in secret秘密地；C. by accident意外地；D. at random随意地。根据下文“I was sorry for my thoughts”可知，作者误会老妇人了，说明老妇人并不是故意偷手机，只是下车时不小心顺手带走了，by accident解释了手机不在作者身上的合理原因。 【33题详解】 考查名词。句意：我再也没有机会为我之前的恶意揣测向他们道歉了。A. attempt尝试；B. honour荣誉；C. motivation动机；D. chance机会。根据上文“soon disappeared into the night”可知，那个年轻人送完手机就消失在夜色里，作者之后再也没有遇到他们，自然没有道歉的机会。 【34题详解】 考查名词。句意：那天我还领悟到了别的东西：有时候我们会把别人判定为坏人，仅仅是因为他们的外表不符合我们心中认定的“正确标准”。A. behavior行为；B. appearance外表；C. perspective观点；D. personality性格。根据第第二段中“a young man, wearing long hair, on a motorcycle, was smiling at me, but appearing threatening”可知，年轻人留着长发、骑着摩托车，看起来有威胁感，这些都是外在的表象，让作者先入为主产生了偏见。 【35题详解】 ‌考查形容词。句意：他们或许没有开时髦的车，但谁又能说他们和我们不平等，甚至不比我们更高尚呢？A. generous慷慨的；B. friendly友好的；C. loyal忠诚的；D. equal平等的。根据上文“They may not drive a stylish car”可知，此处作者是想说不能以物质条件评判他人，每个人在人格上都是平等的，甚至拥有比普通人更可贵的品质。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分） I wake up to the sound of the wind ____36____ (buffet) the cloth of my tent.

However, Tu youyou would not acknowledge d________ (失败). (根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】defeat##efeat 【解析】 【详解】句意：然而，屠呦呦不愿承认失败。根据中文提示“失败”及首字母d，可知应填入名词defeat，作动词acknowledge（承认）的宾语。 47.

(根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】gradually##radually 【解析】 【详解】句意：在此之后，他逐渐闻名于世，被誉为新一代艾萨克·牛顿。设空处修饰动词短语became famous，应使用副词作状语。根据首字母g和中文提示“逐渐地”，可知应填入副词gradually。 49.

Just like spoken language, body language v________ (变化) from culture to culture. (根据中英文提示单词拼写) 【答案】varies##aries 【解析】 【详解】句意：就像口语一样，肢体语言也因文化而异。该空需要一个动词作谓语；根据首字母v和汉语提示“变化”可知，应填入动词vary。此处陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时；主语body language为第三人称单数名词，故谓语动词需变为第三人称单数形式varies。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 51. 假定你是李华，你校英文报Voice栏目正在开展主题征稿，讨论在取得伟大成就时，天赋与努力哪个更重要。请你以“Which Matters More for Great Achievements: Talent or Effort?”为题，向该栏目投稿，内容包括： 1．你的观点； 2．你的理由； 3．作出总结。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Which Matters More for Great Achievements: Talent or Effort? _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version 1: Which Matters More for Great Achievements: Talent or Effort? When it comes to which matters more for great achievements, I argue that effort comes before talent. I admit that talent provides a slightly higher starting point. However, natural ability alone doesn’t lead to success necessarily. Even the most gifted people will waste their potential without hard work. Tu Youyou’s discovery of artemisinin after over 190 failures is the best proof that constant effort drives real progress. To sum up, talent may give us a head start, but it is constant effort that really ensures we can reach the final destination. Possible version 2: Which Matters More for Great Achievements: Talent or Effort? There are many different views on whether talent or effort matters more for great achievements. Personally, I believe that talent plays a more significant role. I admit that effort is necessary. However, what truly makes the difference is talent. Among numerous physicists who devoted their lives to research, only Einstein, the genius, put forward the theory of relativity, completely changing our understanding of the universe. In closing, though effort contributes to daily progress, it is talent that brings about great achievements. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达要求考生就“取得伟大成就时，天赋与努力哪个更重要”这一话题谈谈自己的观点并说明理由，以“Which Matters More for Great Achievements: Talent or Effort?”为题，写一篇短文，向校英文报Voice栏目投稿。 【详解】以范文二为例： 1.词汇积累 不同的：different → various/distinct 成就：achievement → accomplishment 众多的：numerous → multitudinous 理解：understanding → comprehension 2.句式拓展 改写句子 原句：However, what truly makes the difference is talent. 拓展句：However, what truly makes the difference is talent, because unique talent enables people to think differently and see hidden connections, which makes historic breakthroughs possible. 【点睛】【高分句型1】However, what truly makes the difference is talent.(运用了what引导的主语从句) 【高分句型2】Specifically, unique talent enables people to think differently and see hidden connections, which makes historic breakthroughs possible.(运用了which引导的非限制性定语从句) 第二节（满分25分） 52. 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。 Mr. Hopkins’ bookstore was a quiet island in the noisy stream of the modern city. For decades, it had been a shelter for book lovers. The wooden sign above the door, weathered but proud, read “Hopkins’ Books” in brick red. It had been a constant place where time moved slower with the first turn of a page. Now, it was closing. The news felt like a physical blow to David, a quiet college student who had grown up reading in the cozy corners of the shop. The smell of old paper was the smell of his childhood, witnessing his growth. He couldn’t imagine the street without its warm, inviting light. When the news spread throughout the entire neighborhood, worry was written all over everyone’s faces. The reason for the closure was a woman named Sarah Chen. Representing a large development company, she had made a generous offer to buy the building. She saw the space not for its shelves of stories, but for its potential as a trendy café, a profitable upgrade. To her, it was just business. Mr. Hopkins, now old and tired, felt defeated. “Maybe it’s time, David,” he sighed, his hand resting on a dusty copy of his favorite novel. “The world has moved on.” On the day of the final meeting, David arrived early, his backpack filled with items he had collected over the years from the store: a bookmark from his tenth birthday, a receipt from the first book he had bought with his own money, a photograph of himself and Mr. Hopkins taken during a summer reading program. He walked to the children’s section and drew a small, worn copy of The Adventures of Tom Sawyer. The cover was faded, the pages yellowed, but the spine still held strong. Sarah arrived precisely at 2:00 p.m. She wasted no time getting down to business, reviewing the contract with Mr. Hopkins. David watched from the sidelines, his heart pounding in his chest. 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。 Paragraph 1: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: He couldn’t let this happen — not without trying to make his voice heard. As Sarah flipped through the contract, David gripped The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, stepping forward with courage. “Ms. Chen, may I show you something?” He laid out a bookmark, and faded photos — tangible threads of the neighborhood’s memories. “This store isn’t just wood and shelves: here I learned to dream, Mrs. Henderson reads to kids weekly, and Mr. Hopkins found my first poetry book.” His eyes glistened as children glanced from the corner, clutching books. “It’s a living legacy, not just profit.” Sarah’s pen froze, her gaze softening and hesitation flickering across her face. A decision was made to combine a bookstore and a café in one project, and the construction began. Workers handled the store with utmost care crafting a cozy café bar bathed in warm light. David volunteered diligently, sorting books and hanging lights that cast gentle glows on pages. When the doors reopened, joy filled the air: kids stretched on cushions reading, and elders chatted over the bar. Mr. Hopkins smiled by the door as the store breathed new life — no longer just a book lovers’ shelter, but a vibrant harbour where memories endured and new stories unfolded. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Hopkins先生的书店多年来一直是书迷们的避风港，如今却面临关闭，原因是Sarah Chen要收购这座建筑用于商业行为，心灰意冷的Hopkins先生也决定放手，但这对其中一名顾客David来说犹如晴天霹雳，书店承载着他童年的记忆，见证了他成长的历程，在最终会议的那天，David背着多年来从书店里收集来的物品早早到达，看着Sarah与Hopkins先生一起审查合同，他的心在胸膛里剧烈地跳动着。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“如果他没有努力让自己的声音被听到，他绝不能让这种情况发生”可知，第一段可描写David向Sarah展示自己带的东西，讲述书店的意义，Sarah态度变得缓和。 ②由第二段首句内容“最终决定将书店和咖啡馆合二为一，开始进行建设。”可知，第二段可描写书店和咖啡馆建成，焕发出新的生机。 2.续写线索：走向Sarah——讲述书店的意义——态度变得柔和——最终决定——书店和咖啡馆建成——焕发新的生机 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①浏览，草草翻阅：flip through/flick through ②铺开，展开：lay out/spread out ③闪闪发光：glisten/shine 情绪类 ①勇气：courage/bravery ②欢乐：joy/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] As Sarah flipped through the contract, David gripped The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, stepping forward with courage.（由连词as引导的时间状语从句） [高分句型2] David volunteered diligently, sorting books and hanging lights that cast gentle glows on pages.  （由关系代词that引导的定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
