精品解析：黑龙江省绥化市第七中学2026-2027学年高一上学期期中英语试题

Good morning, everyone. Today, i'd like to share some practical ways to save water in our daily lives. In fact, we have all been told not to leave the water running while brushing our teeth or washing our faces. Another good habit is taking shorter showers every minute counts. When IT comes to doing the dishes, using the dish washer is much more efficient than washing the dishes by hand, but only if you fill IT up. If you use the dish washer for only a few plates or glasses, you will end up wasting more water. Does your car need to wash? Get down to lumps on college this weekend where they are having a charity car wash? The event will take place at the college parking lot, where the students will be washing cars for a good cause. That's on saturday, the fourth from eight in the morning till eight in the evening. And the Prices are pretty good too. Just ten dollars for the outside of your car and eight dollars for the inside. If you want the full service outside and inside IT will cost you only fifteen dollars. That's not too bad, but the main thing is that all the money raised will go to the homeless people in the area. So if your car is dirty, you know where to take IT this weekend. It's unbelievable. You know, my pen friend is in india now, and she's gonna visit me this weekend. I am looking forward to seeing her. really. How did you get to know her? I mean, how could you know a foreign friend? We just started to know each other through skype. You know, IT allows users to communicate over the internet by voice. The only thing is that we have to talk in english. That's a good way to improve your english. Do you think it's a danger to talk with people . you don't know? Well, that depends. At first, we just discussed our hobbies and language study, then we found we both enjoy traveling and swimming, but we have different tastes in music and movies. but I still couldn't talk with a person I don't know. I am starving. What are we having for dinner tonight. jane? I am not sure something will come to mind. Once I start. I feel like eating french fries or maybe ham sandwiches. How about you? Actually. I was thinking of making something healthy, say, fish and vegetables. Well, in that case, I, L, L, have whatever you make. Mark, have you heard about the new zero waste cafe opening downtown? Oh yes. My sister told me about IT. Customers bring their own containers for coffee and snacks. right? That s right. They were trying to reduce packaging waste. People can even buy loose grains and nuts without any plastic bags. That is a great concept, especially with all the discussions about environmental protection. I am trying to reduce my use of single use plastic items too. Me too, he makes me think about how much waste we produce every day. I heard they also use locally source ingredients to reduce their carbon footprint. fantastic. We should definitely check IT out this weekend. IT is a good way to support sustainable businesses. 绥化市第七中学2026—2027学年度第一学期期中试卷 高一英语 注意事项: 1.答卷前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时, 选出每小题答案后, 用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑;如需改动, 用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时, 将答案写在答题卡上, 写在试卷上无效。 第I卷(选择题) 一、听力-选择题：本大题共20小题, 共30分。 听下面一段对话, 回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 1.

B Not even a flooded river could stand between Mary Breckinridge and the hospital her patients needed. A heavy rain damaged the banks beside Mary Breckinridge’s Wendover, Kentucky, clinic. She had to find a way to get her five patients to the hospital in Lexington. With a neighbor’s help, Mary and the nurses built a boat. They named it Ambulance, and on the morning of December 30, 1926, Mary, another nurse, and the patients set off down the river. After sixteen wild miles on the dangerous river, they arrived at the train station in Krypton. As she watched the train pull away with her patients safely on board, Mary smiled and waved. Mary had not planned to be a nurse. She was the daughter of a wealthy Kentucky politician. As a child, Mary was influenced by her family who had always been worried about the poor people of the state. When she grew up, Mary was inspired to become a nurse. So in 1925 Mary hired a few British-trained nurses and, with some money from her family, started the Frontier Nursing Service in Wendover, Kentucky. Before Mary and her nurses came, the mountain people lived a hard life. Families made so little money that they could not afford doctors or medicine. Many children had diseases and nearly every person was in bad health for lack of food. Mary and the nurses built clinics and a small hospital deep in the forests of Leslie County. There were no paved(铺好的)roads, electricity, or telephones. Each day the nurses rode on horseback to faraway farms, often in bad weather, to answer calls for help. They worked hard to take care of their patients. To the grateful mountain people, Mary and the nurses seemed to be everywhere. They treated everything from cut fingers to pneumonia(肺炎)and delivered babies. The proud countrymen liked the nurses because they treated everyone with respect. The Frontier Nursing Service grew. Today their nursing service reaches far beyond the Kentucky mountains. Medical professionals from all over the world come to Wendover to study rural(乡村的)health care in action. When these men and women go back to their own countries, they are prepared to help people in need. 24. How did Mary Breckinridge get her patients to Krypton? A. By train. B. By car. C. By water. D. On horseback. 25. Why does the writer tell the story in the first two paragraphs? A. To describe the daily challenges of rural life in Kentucky. B. To give a general summary of Mary’s great achievements. C. To provide a specific example of Mary’s strong will and helpful action. D. To explain the primary cause of Mary’s decision to become a nurse. 26. What can we learn about Mary Breckinridge from the text? A. She trained the nurses herself. B. She wanted to set up more clinics to help the sick. C. She wiped out all diseases in the Kentucky mountains. D. She made a great impact on health care today. 27. What is the main idea of the text? A. Mary and her family were always helpful to others. B. The Frontier Nursing Service set up many branches. C. Rural nurses found creative ways to transport supplies and patients. D. Mary and other nurses provided kind medical care to rural people. C When “irregardless” was included in Merriam-Webster dictionary, it caused wide disagreements. “Irregardless” has been in widespread and near-constant use since 1795, when a newspaper called The Charleston City Gazelle of Charleston Ga first used it. “We do not make the English language, and we merely record it,” the dictionary’s staff wrote in “Words of the Week”. The word’s definition(释义), when we read it, would seem to be without regard. However, Merriam-Webster defines “irregardless” as “nonstandard” but meaning the same as “regardless”. According to Merriam-Webster, “Many people find ‘irregardless’ to be an odd word, as the ir-prefix usually indicates negative meaning; however, in this case it appears to make the meaning of ‘regardless’ stronger.” “It’s not a real word. I don’t care what the dictionary says.” says author Michelle Ray, who teaches English in Silver Spring, Md. And she adds she’s still planning to mark “irregardless” as incorrect on her students’ work. An American newspaper the Baltimore Sun published the word in editor John McIntyre’s commentary on Saturday: “‘Irregardless is too a word; you just don’t understand dictionaries. People get upset about the dictionary because they think it is some sort of official document. But actually, it’s not. It’s just lexicographers(词典编纂者)discovering words that people use and trying to find out how they are spelled, how they are pronounced, what meanings they have and where they came from.” “The dictionary’s inclusion of a word doesn’t make it correct in the English language,” McIntyre says. “It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English. And here’s what we know about it.” So it’s a word, but its use is still discouraged in formal writing. 28. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To criticize the use of “irregardless”. B. To introduce the topic. C. To make a definition of “irregardless”. D. To give an example. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. “Irregardless” had been in widespread and near-constant use before 1975. B. The dictionary’s staff rarely record the English language. C. Michelle Ray thinks the use of “irregardless” formal but incorrect. D. People are still not encouraged to use “irregardless” in formal writing. 30. What is the attitude of McIntyre to the appearance of “irregardless” in Merriam-Webster dictionary? A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful. 31. What can be the best title for the passage? A. “Irregardless” Is Frequently Used in Formal Writing. B. “Irregardless” Shouldn’t Be Included in the Dictionary. C. Regardless of What You Think, “Irregardless” Is a Word. D. Experts Can’t Agree on the Meaning of “Irregardless”. D Deep in the underwater world, animals like starfish use unusual ways to escape hunters. In an act called autotomy, starfish drop one or more of their arms to survive attacks. The lost body part distracts the attacker, allowing the starfish to run away quickly. Over time, the starfish can grow back the lost arm, returning to their usual life after a brush with death. A few years ago, Maurice Elphick, who studied starfish behavior at Queen Mary University of London, and Ana Tinoco, a postdoctoral researcher, often saw starfish missing one or more arms when they collected these creatures along beaches. Amazed by this observation, they decided to investigate how the autotomy works. Recently, Elphick’s team discovered a molecule (分子) that helps starfish drop their arms. Researchers found that a neuropeptide (神经肽) called ArSK/CCK1 controls this process. When injected into starfish, the molecule caused some of them to drop their arms. However, not all starfish injected with this neuropeptide lost their arms. This suggests that the molecule works with other factors, like stress. To test this, scientists pressed starfish arms with a special tool. When stressed and injected with the neuropeptide, most starfish dropped their arms. This study showed that the neuropeptide may soften and break tissues (细胞组织) at the base of the starfish arm, which is an important step in autotomy. Researchers also found that the molecule exists in starfish even when they are not losing arms, ready to act when needed, since starfish are often attacked by hunters mid-meal. “It’s a really beautiful study,” said Emily Claereboudt, a biologist at the University of Bergen. “The study can provide insights into similar molecules in humans, which may eventually help improve tissue regeneration. But that would be a long-term goal.” Elphick agreed. For now, Elphick is excited about the results. “I hope this will deepen our understanding of autotomy and regeneration across the animal kingdom,” he said. 32. What can we know about autotomy? A. It is starfish’s survival skill. B. It allows starfish to grow fast. C. It is starfish’s unique ability. D. It helps starfish hunt for food. 33. Which best explains “distracts” underlined in the first paragraph? A. Searches for carefully. B. Draws someone’s attention. C. Count on unwillingly. D. Warmly welcomes someone. 34. What did Elphick’s research find? A. How starfish cut ties with their arms. B. How hunters manage to attack starfish. C. How starfish recover from serious injuries. D. How wild animals survive natural disasters. 35. What did Claereboudt expect of the study? A. It’ll avoid misunderstanding about molecules. B. It’ll change our attitude towards cute animals. C. It’ll inspire new ideas for human tissue repair. D. It’ll ask us to put effort into wildlife protection. 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题, 共12.5分。 Ways to Build Resilience (恢复力) Being resilient isn’t about avoiding misfortune, but rather how we respond to it. Resilience means doing well in the face of risk or difficulty. ___36___Being resilient can help you manage stress, lower your chances of depression, and has even been proven to make people live longer. To build resilience, the experts suggest the following: Start with reaching out for support. Lack of social support can lead to decreased resilience. While it’s easy to let go of important relationships in our busy lives, ___37___Good relationships are a pillar (柱子) of rock for resilience and are a source of support when the times get tough. And cultivating your sense of humor is also a plus. ___38___Humor helps you to gain perspective during hard times. It also improves your sense of well-being through an increase in dopamine (多巴胺) levels in your brain, and can ultimately increase your overall health. ___39___ Having goals and dreams increases resilience. A lack of purpose and goals reduces resilience and may leave you open to being taken advantage of, manipulation (操纵), and poor life choices; it reduces your sense of control over your life, which can easily lead to depression and anxiety. Be a person of action. Being idle can lead to less resilience, but being active and tackling your problems head-on can promote your ability to deal with tough situations. ___40___Instead, do something about the situation. A. it is vital to make room for them. B. Then find a sense of purpose in life. C. it is excited to embrace the unknown. D. Hard times call for looking at the lighter side. E.

I was on my way to work. I’d been training hard for an upcoming marathon, and was limping (跛行) slightly from a pain in my hip. I figured it was nothing serious. But later it turned out to be a hairline stress fracture (应力断裂). So, when I slipped on the icy New York City sidewalk, I somehow lost my balance and broke my hip. I tried several times to stand up, but failed each time due to the sharp pain. As more and more passers-by gathered around, I felt extremely embarrassed. Just at that time, a stranger emerged from the crowd and knelt beside me. All I remembered was seeing her kind face, all covered up, with a big hat and scarf. She pushed everyone out of the way and said, “I’ve got this.” The woman introduced herself as Sharon Evans. As she helped me up, all I could think about was that I needed to get to work. But I was in terrible pain, and could barely stand. Seeing this, Sharon told me to stay put while she called a taxi. “No, you don’t have to do that. I’m sure you have places to be, please don’t, I can do it,” I said to her. “No, the taxi is arriving anytime,” she replied. Once the taxi arrived, Sharon supported me into the taxi and went with me. I tried to tell her that it wasn’t necessary. But she was persistent. To be honest, I was secretly relieved to have her company. When the taxi pulled up to the hospital, Sharon took charge again. “You know what, I’m going to go get the wheelchair for you and I’ll wheel you in.” I hesitantly said, “Please don’t do that. You’ve done so much.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My condition was serious and I needed an immediate operation. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Six months later, I fully recovered and managed to get her address. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $I always dreamed of opening my own restaurant. I always loved cooking, so when I came time for college, I knew that the cooking institute was definitely the place for me, although a lot of my friends went to study computer and my father wanted me to study science, and when I graduated, I couldn't wait to get started. Well, that was probably my first mistake. I didn't go slowly. I picked a building for my restaurant in a residential neighborhood. I took great efforts and decoration, but the parking in the neighborhood was really difficult. I didn't have enough regular customers because people didn't really drive by and see IT. At first, I thought I was great not to have any competition, but I realized now that another restaurant or two would have brought people into the area. My other mistake was that I wanted to serve only the best and use organic food. Well, the problem with that was I had to charge a lot of money for the meals that didn't help business either. If I had only known then what I know now. 绥化市第七中学2026—2027学年度第一学期期中试卷 高一英语 注意事项: 1.答卷前, 考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时, 选出每小题答案后, 用铅笔把答题卡对应题目的答案标号涂黑;如需改动, 用橡皮擦干净后, 再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时, 将答案写在答题卡上, 写在试卷上无效。 第I卷(选择题) 一、听力-选择题：本大题共20小题, 共30分。 听下面一段对话, 回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 1.

W: OK, that’s a deal. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 13. What did the speaker’s father want her to study? A. Computer. B. Cooking. C. Science. 14. What did the speaker do immediately after graduation? A. She opened a restaurant. B. She worked as a waitress. C. She studied design. 15. Why didn’t the restaurant have many customers? A. The food was not organic. B. Parking was a headache. C. The decoration was poor. 16. How does the speaker feel in the end? A. Fortunate. B. Hopeful. C. Regretful. 【答案】13. C 14. A 15. B 16. C 【解析】 【原文】 W: I always dreamed of opening my own restaurant. I always loved cooking. So when it came time for college, I knew that the cooking institute was definitely the place for me, although a lot of my friends went to study computer and my father wanted me to study science. And when I graduated, I couldn’t wait to get started. Well, that was probably my first mistake. I didn’t go slowly. I picked a building for my restaurant in a residential neighborhood. I took great efforts in decoration. But the parking in the neighborhood was really difficult. I didn’t have enough regular customers, because people didn’t really drive by and see it. At first, I thought it was great not to have any competition, but I realize now that another restaurant or two would have brought people into the area. My other mistake was that I wanted to serve only the best and use organic food. Well, the problem with that was I had to charge a lot of money for the meals. That didn’t help business either. If I had only known then what I know now! 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. What can people do to save water? A. Brush teeth quickly. B. Wash face less often. C. Have a shorter bath. 18. How can people save water when washing the dishes? A. By washing them in a full dishwasher. B. By washing a few of them at a time. C. By washing them by hand. 19. How much is it for a full car wash? A. $8. B. $10. C. $15. 20. What is the purpose of the car wash activity? A. To help the homeless. B. To promote water conservation. C. To collect money for local students. 【答案】17. C 18. A 19. C 20. A 【解析】 【原文】 W: Good morning, everyone! Today I’d like to share some practical ways to save water in our daily lives. In fact, we have all been told not to leave the water running while brushing our teeth or washing our faces. Another good habit is taking shorter showers — every minute counts. When it comes to doing the dishes, using the dishwasher is much more efficient than washing the dishes by hand, but only if you fill it up. If you use the dishwasher for only a few plates or glasses, you will end up wasting more water. Does your car need a wash? Get down to Lumsden College this weekend, where they are having a charity car wash. The event will take place at the college parking lot, where the students will be washing cars for a good cause — that’s on Saturday, the 4th, from eight in the morning till eight in the evening. And the prices are pretty good, too — just ten dollars for the outside of your car and eight dollars for the inside. If you want the full service, outside and inside, it will cost you only fifteen dollars. That’s not too bad. But the main thing is that all the money raised will go to the homeless people in the area. So if your car is dirty, you know where to take it this weekend. 二、阅读理解：本大题共15小题, 共37.5分。 A We want to achieve zero fines (罚款) and not have any books returned late.

A heavy rain damaged the banks beside Mary Breckinridge’s Wendover, Kentucky, clinic. She had to find a way to get her five patients to the hospital in Lexington. With a neighbor’s help, Mary and the nurses built a boat. They named it Ambulance, and on the morning of December 30, 1926, Mary, another nurse, and the patients set off down the river. After sixteen wild miles on the dangerous river, they arrived at the train station in Krypton. As she watched the train pull away with her patients safely on board, Mary smiled and waved. Mary had not planned to be a nurse. She was the daughter of a wealthy Kentucky politician. As a child, Mary was influenced by her family who had always been worried about the poor people of the state. When she grew up, Mary was inspired to become a nurse. So in 1925 Mary hired a few British-trained nurses and, with some money from her family, started the Frontier Nursing Service in Wendover, Kentucky. Before Mary and her nurses came, the mountain people lived a hard life. Families made so little money that they could not afford doctors or medicine. Many children had diseases and nearly every person was in bad health for lack of food. Mary and the nurses built clinics and a small hospital deep in the forests of Leslie County. There were no paved(铺好的)roads, electricity, or telephones. Each day the nurses rode on horseback to faraway farms, often in bad weather, to answer calls for help. They worked hard to take care of their patients. To the grateful mountain people, Mary and the nurses seemed to be everywhere. They treated everything from cut fingers to pneumonia(肺炎)and delivered babies. The proud countrymen liked the nurses because they treated everyone with respect. The Frontier Nursing Service grew. Today their nursing service reaches far beyond the Kentucky mountains. Medical professionals from all over the world come to Wendover to study rural(乡村的)health care in action. When these men and women go back to their own countries, they are prepared to help people in need. 24. How did Mary Breckinridge get her patients to Krypton? A. By train. B. By car. C. By water. D. On horseback. 25. Why does the writer tell the story in the first two paragraphs? A. To describe the daily challenges of rural life in Kentucky. B. To give a general summary of Mary’s great achievements. C. To provide a specific example of Mary’s strong will and helpful action. D. To explain the primary cause of Mary’s decision to become a nurse. 26. What can we learn about Mary Breckinridge from the text? A. She trained the nurses herself. B. She wanted to set up more clinics to help the sick. C. She wiped out all diseases in the Kentucky mountains. D. She made a great impact on health care today. 27. What is the main idea of the text? A. Mary and her family were always helpful to others. B. The Frontier Nursing Service set up many branches. C. Rural nurses found creative ways to transport supplies and patients. D. Mary and other nurses provided kind medical care to rural people. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. D 27.

The word’s definition(释义), when we read it, would seem to be without regard. However, Merriam-Webster defines “irregardless” as “nonstandard” but meaning the same as “regardless”. According to Merriam-Webster, “Many people find ‘irregardless’ to be an odd word, as the ir-prefix usually indicates negative meaning; however, in this case it appears to make the meaning of ‘regardless’ stronger.” “It’s not a real word. I don’t care what the dictionary says.” says author Michelle Ray, who teaches English in Silver Spring, Md. And she adds she’s still planning to mark “irregardless” as incorrect on her students’ work. An American newspaper the Baltimore Sun published the word in editor John McIntyre’s commentary on Saturday: “‘Irregardless is too a word; you just don’t understand dictionaries. People get upset about the dictionary because they think it is some sort of official document. But actually, it’s not. It’s just lexicographers(词典编纂者)discovering words that people use and trying to find out how they are spelled, how they are pronounced, what meanings they have and where they came from.” “The dictionary’s inclusion of a word doesn’t make it correct in the English language,” McIntyre says. “It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English. And here’s what we know about it.” So it’s a word, but its use is still discouraged in formal writing. 28. What’s the function of the first paragraph? A. To criticize the use of “irregardless”. B. To introduce the topic. C. To make a definition of “irregardless”. D. To give an example. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. “Irregardless” had been in widespread and near-constant use before 1975. B. The dictionary’s staff rarely record the English language. C. Michelle Ray thinks the use of “irregardless” formal but incorrect. D. People are still not encouraged to use “irregardless” in formal writing. 30. What is the attitude of McIntyre to the appearance of “irregardless” in Merriam-Webster dictionary? A. Supportive. B. Negative. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful. 31. What can be the best title for the passage? A. “Irregardless” Is Frequently Used in Formal Writing. B. “Irregardless” Shouldn’t Be Included in the Dictionary. C. Regardless of What You Think, “Irregardless” Is a Word. D. Experts Can’t Agree on the Meaning of “Irregardless”. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕非标准词汇“irregardless”被收录进词典引发的争议，探讨词典编纂原则与公众认知的冲突，并指出该词虽被承认但仍不建议在正式写作中使用。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“When “irregardless” was included in Merriam-Webster dictionary, it caused wide disagreements. “Irregardless” has been in widespread and near-constant use since 1795, when a newspaper called The Charleston City Gazelle of Charleston Ga first used it. “We do not make the English language, and we merely record it,” the dictionary’s staff wrote in “Words of the Week”.(当“irregardless”被收入《韦氏词典》时，引起了广泛的争议。“Irregardless”自1795年首次被乔治亚州查尔斯顿的一家报纸《查尔斯顿城市羚羊报》使用以来，一直被广泛且近乎持续地使用。《韦氏词典》的工作人员在“每周词汇”中写道：“我们不创造英语，我们只是记录它。”)”可知，第一段主要讲述了“irregardless”被收录进词典引发的争议，其作用是引出关于irregardless一词的话题。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“So it’s a word, but its use is still discouraged in formal writing.(所以它是一个单词，但在正式写作中仍不鼓励使用。)”可知，人们在正式的写作中仍然不鼓励使用irregardless。故选D。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Irregardless is too a word; you just don’t understand dictionaries. People get upset about the dictionary because they think it is some sort of official document. But actually, it’s not. It’s just lexicographers(词典编纂者)discovering words that people use and trying to find out how they are spelled, how they are pronounced, what meanings they have and where they came from.(“Irregardless”其实也是一个单词；你只是不了解字典。人们之所以对字典感到不满，是因为他们认为字典是某种官方文件。但实际上并非如此。词典编纂者只是记录人们使用的词汇，并试图弄清它们的拼写、发音、含义以及来源。)”和最后一段中““The dictionary’s recognition doesn’t enroll a word as correct in the English language,” McIntyre says. “It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English. And here’s what we know about it.”(McIntyre说：“词典的认可并不意味着一个词在英语中就是正确的。它只是说这是一个很多人在英语中使用的单词。这是我们所知道的。”)”可知，McIntyre认为irregardless的确是一个单词，只是我们对字典的理解不够，可推测出其对韦氏词典中irregardless的出现持支持态度。故选A。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“When “irregardless” was included in Merriam-Webster dictionary, it caused wide disagreements. “Irregardless” has been in widespread and near-constant use since 1795, when a newspaper called The Charleston City Gazelle of Charleston Ga first used it. “We do not make the English language, and we merely record it,” the dictionary’s staff wrote in “Words of the Week”.(当“irregardless”被收入《韦氏词典》时，引起了广泛的争议。“Irregardless”自1795年首次被乔治亚州查尔斯顿的一家报纸《查尔斯顿城市羚羊报》使用以来，一直被广泛且近乎持续地使用。《韦氏词典》的工作人员在“每周词汇”中写道：“我们不创造英语，我们只是记录它。”)”和最后一段中““The dictionary’s recognition doesn’t enroll a word as correct in the English language,” McIntyre says. “It just says this is a word that a lot of people use in English. And here’s what we know about it.”(McIntyre说：“字典的识别并没有把英语中正确的单词登记进来。它只是说这是一个很多人在英语中使用的单词。这是我们所知道的。”)”可知，文章主要讲述了irregardless被收录进了韦氏字典引发的争议，但不论人们对此看法有什么观点，但各方（包括词典编纂者、McIntyre）均承认其作为单词的客观存在。C选项“不管你怎么想，Irregardless是一个单词。”最符合文章大意。故选C。 D Deep in the underwater world, animals like starfish use unusual ways to escape hunters. In an act called autotomy, starfish drop one or more of their arms to survive attacks. The lost body part distracts the attacker, allowing the starfish to run away quickly. Over time, the starfish can grow back the lost arm, returning to their usual life after a brush with death. A few years ago, Maurice Elphick, who studied starfish behavior at Queen Mary University of London, and Ana Tinoco, a postdoctoral researcher, often saw starfish missing one or more arms when they collected these creatures along beaches. Amazed by this observation, they decided to investigate how the autotomy works. Recently, Elphick’s team discovered a molecule (分子) that helps starfish drop their arms. Researchers found that a neuropeptide (神经肽) called ArSK/CCK1 controls this process. When injected into starfish, the molecule caused some of them to drop their arms. However, not all starfish injected with this neuropeptide lost their arms. This suggests that the molecule works with other factors, like stress. To test this, scientists pressed starfish arms with a special tool. When stressed and injected with the neuropeptide, most starfish dropped their arms. This study showed that the neuropeptide may soften and break tissues (细胞组织) at the base of the starfish arm, which is an important step in autotomy. Researchers also found that the molecule exists in starfish even when they are not losing arms, ready to act when needed, since starfish are often attacked by hunters mid-meal. “It’s a really beautiful study,” said Emily Claereboudt, a biologist at the University of Bergen. “The study can provide insights into similar molecules in humans, which may eventually help improve tissue regeneration. But that would be a long-term goal.” Elphick agreed. For now, Elphick is excited about the results. “I hope this will deepen our understanding of autotomy and regeneration across the animal kingdom,” he said. 32. What can we know about autotomy? A. It is starfish’s survival skill. B. It allows starfish to grow fast. C. It is starfish’s unique ability. D. It helps starfish hunt for food. 33. Which best explains “distracts” underlined in the first paragraph? A. Searches for carefully. B. Draws someone’s attention. C. Count on unwillingly. D. Warmly welcomes someone. 34. What did Elphick’s research find? A. How starfish cut ties with their arms. B. How hunters manage to attack starfish. C. How starfish recover from serious injuries. D. How wild animals survive natural disasters. 35. What did Claereboudt expect of the study? A. It’ll avoid misunderstanding about molecules. B. It’ll change our attitude towards cute animals. C. It’ll inspire new ideas for human tissue repair. D. It’ll ask us to put effort into wildlife protection. 【答案】32. A 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了伦敦玛丽女王大学的研究团队发现了海星自断触手的秘密。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“In an act called autotomy, starfish drop one or more of their arms to survive attacks.(在一种叫做自切的行为中，海星会切掉一条或更多的触手来生存攻击。)”可知，自切行为是海星的生存技巧。故选A。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词下文“allowing the starfish to run away quickly(让海星迅速逃跑)”并结合句意可知，海星切断自己的身体部位，分散攻击者的注意力，这样海星就能迅速逃跑，由此可知，划线单词意为“分散注意力”，与B项“Draws someone’s attention.(吸引某人的注意力)”意思相近，故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Recently, Elphick’s team discovered a molecule (分子) that helps starfish drop their arms. Researchers found that a neuropeptide (神经肽) called ArSK/CCK1 controls this process. When injected into starfish, the molecule caused some of them to drop their arms.(最近，埃尔菲克的团队发现了一种帮助海星掉落触手的分子。研究人员发现，一种名为ArSK/CCK1的肽控制着这一过程。当这种分子被注入海星时，一些海星会掉落它们的触手。)”可知，Elphick的研究发现了海星是如何用自己的触手切断细胞组织的，故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中““It’s a really beautiful study,” said Emily Claereboudt, a biologist at the University of Bergen. “The study can provide insights into similar molecules in humans, which may eventually help improve tissue regeneration. But that would be a long-term goal.”(“这是一项非常漂亮的研究，”卑尔根大学的生物学家艾米丽·克莱雷博德特说。“该研究可以提供人类类似分子的见解，最终可能有助于改善组织再生。但这是一个长期目标。”)”可推知，Claereboudt期待这个研究能激发人类组织修复的新想法。故选C。 三、阅读七选五：本大题共5小题, 共12.5分。 Ways to Build Resilience (恢复力) Being resilient isn’t about avoiding misfortune, but rather how we respond to it. Resilience means doing well in the face of risk or difficulty. ___36___Being resilient can help you manage stress, lower your chances of depression, and has even been proven to make people live longer. To build resilience, the experts suggest the following: Start with reaching out for support. Lack of social support can lead to decreased resilience. While it’s easy to let go of important relationships in our busy lives, ___37___Good relationships are a pillar (柱子) of rock for resilience and are a source of support when the times get tough. And cultivating your sense of humor is also a plus. ___38___Humor helps you to gain perspective during hard times. It also improves your sense of well-being through an increase in dopamine (多巴胺) levels in your brain, and can ultimately increase your overall health. ___39___ Having goals and dreams increases resilience. A lack of purpose and goals reduces resilience and may leave you open to being taken advantage of, manipulation (操纵), and poor life choices; it reduces your sense of control over your life, which can easily lead to depression and anxiety. Be a person of action. Being idle can lead to less resilience, but being active and tackling your problems head-on can promote your ability to deal with tough situations. ___40___Instead, do something about the situation. A. it is vital to make room for them. B. Then find a sense of purpose in life. C. it is excited to embrace the unknown. D. Hard times call for looking at the lighter side. E. Try to avoid thinking deeply about negative thoughts or ideas. F. It is also the ability to bounce back from tough situations. G. Ask questions until you feel like you have a firm grasp of a situation. 【答案】36. F 37. A 38. D 39. B 40. E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了建立恢复力的方法。 【36题详解】 上文“Resilience means doing well in the face of risk or difficulty.(恢复力意味着在面对风险或困难时做得很好。)”解释了什么是恢复力，下文“Being resilient can help you manage stress, lower your chances of depression, and has even been proven to make people live longer.(有恢复力可以帮助你管理压力，降低你抑郁的机会，甚至已经被证明可以让人们活得更长。)”介绍了有恢复力的好处，由此可知，空处应该承接上文，继续介绍什么是恢复力，F项“It is also the ability to bounce back from tough situations.(它也是从困境中恢复过来的能力。)”符合，其中It代指上文提到的Resilience，故选F。 【37题详解】 上文“Start with reaching out for support. Lack of social support can lead to decreased resilience.(从寻求支持开始。缺乏社会支持可能导致复原力下降。)”指出我们要寻求社会支持，建立人际关系，这有助于我们养成恢复力，空前“While it’s easy to let go of important relationships in our busy lives,(虽然在我们忙碌的生活中，放弃重要的人际关系很容易，)”是让步状语从句，空处是主句，从A和C中选择，由while可知，前后是转折关系，结合上文提到的我们要寻求社会关系，建立人际关系可知，所以此处应该是强调我们要抽出时间来建立人际关系，A项“it is vital to make room for them.(为他们腾出空间是至关重要的。)”符合，them代指上半句提到的important relationships，故选A。 【38题详解】 上文“And cultivating your sense of humor is also a plus.(培养你的幽默感也是一个优点。)”指出要培养幽默感，下文“Humor helps you to gain perspective during hard times.(在困难时期，幽默能帮助你获得洞察力。)”指出在困难时期幽默感能帮助你获得洞察力，空处应该承上启下，指出我们要在困难时期有幽默感，D项“Hard times call for looking at the lighter side.(困难时期需要看到光明的一面。)”符合，下文是E项的原因，即困难时期需要看到光明的一面，因为在困难时期，幽默能帮助你获得洞察力，其中“Hard times”和下文“hard times”相呼应，故选D。 【39题详解】 此处是本段中心句，下文“Having goals and dreams increases resilience. A lack of purpose and goals reduces resilience and may leave you open to being taken advantage of, manipulation (操纵), and poor life choices; it reduces your sense of control over your life, which can easily lead to depression and anxiety.(拥有目标和梦想可以增强韧性。缺乏目标和目的会降低适应能力，可能会让你被利用，被操纵，以及糟糕的生活选择; 它会降低你对生活的控制感，这很容易导致抑郁和焦虑。)”主要介绍了生活中要有目标，B项“Then find a sense of purpose in life.(然后找到生活的目标。)”能概括本段内容，且Then和上段的“Start”是顺承关系，故选B。 【40题详解】 下文“Instead, do something about the situation.(相反，做一些事情来改变这种情况。)”指出要做出一些事情来改变这种情况，根据instead可知，上下文是转折关系，E项“Try to avoid thinking deeply about negative thoughts or ideas.(尽量避免深入思考消极的想法。)”符合，其中“thinking”与下文“do something”是相对的，故选E。 四、完形填空：本大题共15小题, 共15分。 At the age of 12, I moved back into my bedroom with my guitar. I had neither musical talent — many ____41____ music lessons had proved that — nor musical training. My fingers ached as I tried to press down on the strings without making a sound. ____42____, I worked my way through 2-, 3-and even 5-chord (和弦) songs and discovered the ____43____ thrills of these musical notes. No one ____44____ me to do this. I did this myself and of my own free will for a week, and the sense of happiness — true happiness ____45____ from full attention to something — has ____46____ me. Fifty years later, that week’s self-directed practice has become a model and ____47____ for almost every meaningful thing I have done since. It makes me understand the ____48____ between achievement and accomplishment. The world prefers achievement while ____49____ accomplishment. The former is the completion of the task imposed (强加) from the outside — the ____50____ being a path to the next task.

The issue is exam anxiety, which manifests in various ways such as sleeplessness, loss of appetite, and constant worry. Some students experience headaches or stomachaches, while others become irritable and easily distracted. These symptoms not only affect our academic performance but also our overall well-being. To address this issue, I suggest that the school could organize workshops on stress management and time management skills. Additionally, providing access to a school counselor for one-on-one sessions could be beneficial. Teachers could also incorporate relaxation exercises into their lessons to help us stay calm. I hope my letter will prompt some positive changes to help us all cope better with exam stress.

I was on my way to work. I’d been training hard for an upcoming marathon, and was limping (跛行) slightly from a pain in my hip. I figured it was nothing serious. But later it turned out to be a hairline stress fracture (应力断裂). So, when I slipped on the icy New York City sidewalk, I somehow lost my balance and broke my hip. I tried several times to stand up, but failed each time due to the sharp pain. As more and more passers-by gathered around, I felt extremely embarrassed. Just at that time, a stranger emerged from the crowd and knelt beside me. All I remembered was seeing her kind face, all covered up, with a big hat and scarf. She pushed everyone out of the way and said, “I’ve got this.” The woman introduced herself as Sharon Evans. As she helped me up, all I could think about was that I needed to get to work. But I was in terrible pain, and could barely stand. Seeing this, Sharon told me to stay put while she called a taxi. “No, you don’t have to do that. I’m sure you have places to be, please don’t, I can do it,” I said to her. “No, the taxi is arriving anytime,” she replied. Once the taxi arrived, Sharon supported me into the taxi and went with me. I tried to tell her that it wasn’t necessary. But she was persistent. To be honest, I was secretly relieved to have her company. When the taxi pulled up to the hospital, Sharon took charge again. “You know what, I’m going to go get the wheelchair for you and I’ll wheel you in.” I hesitantly said, “Please don’t do that. You’ve done so much.” 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 My condition was serious and I needed an immediate operation. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Six months later, I fully recovered and managed to get her address. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version My condition was serious and I needed an immediate operation. Sharon didn’t just go into the hospital with me. She helped me fill out the intake paperwork, paid the fee and even took me to the bathroom. She also tried to contact my family, but they were outside of the city and couldn’t go back in time. Still Sharon chose to stay with me. I tried to persuade her to leave, to get to work. And each time, She refused. Once it was time for me to be seen by doctors, Sharon left. Six months later, I fully recovered and managed to get her address. I decided to thank her in her presence. As I got to her house, I gently knocked the door. It was Sharon who came out and opened the door. I could see surprise in her eyes. “Sharon, it’s me, Lauren. I’ve come to thank you for saving my life!” She hugged me and said. “I wish I could have done more for you.” Such simple words really carried me away.
