Best wishes, Li Hua 67．     A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. While Anna and Capers wandered, Maddie stayed glued to his side, transforming his good days into exciting adventures. She became his shadow. Her wet nose touched him whenever he looked tired, pulling him into the sunlight. Together, they explored around the yard — he rescued a turtle from her jaws, calmed her panic when she saw a water snake, and once, they even chased a wild pig across the neighboring fields. His laughter was heard in once silent places. Life was full of fun.     Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. Maddie’s energy was so infectious that it influenced my husband positively. When the next round of chemo returned, the tiredness felt different. Through the whole process, Maddie would lay her head on his lap. Her steady breathing showed that their adventures were merely a temporary stop. She had become my husband’s spiritual companion and his reason to push through the hard time and fight for the next good day, and for the next chase across the field. 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 2 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… 此卷只装订不密封 ………………○………………内………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… ………………○………………外………………○………………装………………○………………订………………○………………线………………○……………… … 学校：______________姓名：_____________班级：_______________考号：______________________ 2026-2027学年高二选择性必修第二册英语单元自测 Unit 5 A delicate World·单元自测卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 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，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分1.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1．How does the man feel about the interview result?

B Finnish Lapland, in the far north of Europe, is home to some 180,000 people and around 200,000 reindeer (驯鹿). The animals live wild but each one has an owner, identified by a mark on its ear. Anne Ollila, 50, one of 4,000 such owners, works in the Finnish part of this region with her husband and two adult sons and their families. They farm the animals mainly for meat, but reindeer tourism has also become an important source of income. Ollila lives 80 kilometres inside the Arctic Circle, an hour from Lapland’s capital city, Rovaniemi, and seven kilometres from her nearest neighbour. Summer days — when the reindeer raisers earmark newborn reindeer — are long and in June the sun never sets. At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to endure large groups of insects along the way. In deepest winter, there is little daylight. Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles — the birds can kill an adult reindeer. Ollila and her family offer tourists reindeer experiences through their company Reindeer Journey. Visitors can get close to the animals in the wild or at their farm, watching them being trained to pull sledges (雪橇) or take a sleigh ride. “Reindeer are very smart animals,” Ollila, says. “They have different personalities, and some are very funny.” One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.” Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.” 24．What does the underlined word “endure” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Go away with. B．Catch up with. C．Put up with. D．Look forward to. 25．Why do the reindeer move into the forest in winter according to the text? A．To get earmarked. B．To find their owners. C．To avoid cold temperatures. D．To protect themselves. 26．What does Ollila think of Rocky? A．He is foolish. B．He is a troublemaker. C．He is interested in planting trees. D．He is a famous filmmaker. 27．What can we infer about Ollila from the last paragraph? A．She has a deep affection for nature. B．She has long been tired of raising reindeer. C．She has been a sociology researcher since 2010. D．She had no chance to receive a college education. C There is more evidence that green does a brain good. School-aged children who have long-term exposure (接触) to green space are more focused and experience improved memory, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at University of California, Los Angeles. The research links, for the first time, improved cognitive (认知) function to structural changes in the developing brain. The findings could have global meanings, as half the world live in urban areas where access to nature can be limited. The researchers found that children raised in homes surrounded by natural environment had more activity in brain regions associated with learning and the ability to engage with others. They also experienced less distraction and sharper memory — key indicators of academic and social success. A previous study had similar results: children attending schools with significant green space were more focused than those with less. But why exposure to greenery has beneficial effects on the brain is anybody’s guess. “Lower levels of noise and air pollution could be factors,” said study coauthor Michael Jerrett. He also noted that people with better access to parks tend to be more physically active and have lower rates of mental illness. Besides, “biophilia hypothesis (亲生命假说) suggests humans have an inborn tendency toward nature, which affords children opportunities for creativity, risk-taking, and psychological restoration — all believed to aid brain development.” The benefits of green space, however, are not shared by every community. In Los Angeles, 45% of residents in low-income neighbourhoods lack walkable access to a park. “These gaps are not accidental,” said Robert Garcia, founding director of the City Project, who blames them for unbalanced housing and land use practices. Some progress has been made. In 2016, Measure A was passed to expand parks and improve facilities, giving priority to low-income communities. “As we get more and more of this evidence, it’s the duty of urban planners to start looking at nature as a very positive solution to many urban problems,” said Jerrett. 28．What is the key finding of the recent study? A．Urban living harms focus. B．Nature improves brain development. C．City life limits green space. D．Greenness makes children successful. 29．How does the author explain the beneficial effects of greenery? A．By quoting research data. B．By offering various examples. C．By listing possible causes. D．By comparing opposite views. 30．Why are the benefits of green space not shared by every community? A．Funding shortage. B．Limited urban space. C．Environmental issues. D．Unequal city planning. 31．What would Michael Jerrett probably suggest? A．Further studies on brain health. B．More parks in poor neighbourhoods. C．Stronger reduction in pollution. D．Larger investment in local economy. D Many people visit PacSci’s Tropical Butterfly House in Seattle just for fun, but few know its deep environmental message: all living creatures have natural creativity to adapt to changing surroundings, and humans should respect and protect wildlife and build balanced habitats for them. Seattle has cold weather, totally different from tropical butterflies’ natural homes. Scientists create a small human-controlled tropical ecosystem to keep butterflies alive. They control temperature, humidity and light to fight the cold local climate. Even so, the butterflies’ and plants’ own ability to survive matters most. Plants adjust water intake under human care; butterflies follow light cycles to live normally. This shows clearly that wild animals are born with strong adaptability. Another exhibit called Wild Creativity in an exhibition explains this rule further. Wild plants and animals develop special skills to survive environmental changes. Butterflies feed and rest on certain tropical plants, while they help plants pollinate (授粉). The two depend on each other, forming a balanced cycle. This interdependence is the “wild creativity” formed by nature over thousands of years. Some visitors say building such a man-made tropical room wastes money and energy, and wildlife should live in the wild. However, they miss two important values of the butterfly house. First, all butterflies here are bred by eco-farms instead of being caught in the wild, so wild tropical butterfly groups won’t be harmed. Second, it acts as a living classroom. People living in cities far from rainforests can watch tropical animals closely and raise their environmental awareness. Running the butterfly house takes long-term work: taking care of plants with seasons, keeping stable climate all year and working with zoos and greenhouses. Public donations help cover high running costs. The long success of the house tells us: human intervention (干预) does not mean destroying nature. If we follow conservation ideas, human wisdom can create safe temporary homes for wild animals and spread environmental protection knowledge. The natural adaptability of wildlife guides humans to protect nature. The butterfly house is more than a tourist spot. It reminds us that humans and wild animals can live in peace with proper creative efforts. 32．What is the main idea conveyed through the butterfly house? A．Tropical butterflies are beautiful to watch. B．Seattle’s cold weather is bad for tropical plants. C．The butterfly house costs lots of money to build. D．Wild creatures can naturally adapt to environmental changes. 33．What do we know about the butterflies in PacSci’s exhibition? A．They are captured from wild rainforests. B．They coexist with wild pollination plants. C．They can be harmed with people visiting them frequently. D．They cannot adapt to the man-made light cycle in the house. 34．What is the author’s attitude toward people against the butterfly house? A．Neutral. B．Supportive. C．Disapproving. D．Indifferent. 35．What’s the value of the Tropical Butterfly House according to the text? A．It only offers nice sightseeing. B．It takes the place of natural wild habitats. C．It reduces costs by ending cooperation with botanical partners. D．It combines wildlife protection with environmental education. 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。 Humans have long depended on animals. Whether we saw them as food or as a means of getting work done, they enabled us to survive. 36 Most of us don’t need them to work for us; we need them to love us. In a rapidly changing, digitally driven world, they keep us grounded and connected to reality. Petting a dog, listening to a cat purr, or even watching a school of fish swim activates sensory processes in our brains. Their textures, their non-verbal expressions, and even their smells force us to pay attention to the present rather than worry about the future. When they are begging for a treat or hoping for a head scratch, they make us feel as though our attention is valuable. 37 While we know that the people around us need us to do our jobs, to behave in civil ways, and to maintain relationships, human interactions are complex and mostly rely on language. 38 But it also makes it possible to lie and to manipulate (操控) each other. When dealing with others, we are always balancing our own desires and insecurities against theirs. When people betray our trust physically, financially, or emotionally, we wonder why we failed to detect the insincerity beneath their actions. But with animals, we have a sense that what you see is what you get. 39 If you harm them, they will hide or defend themselves, but they don’t pretend to love you while taking advantage of you behind your back. For many people, pets are more than just animals. 40 They offer us pure, honest affection that is hard to find in human communication. A．And they can make us feel needed. B．They are merely for fun and relaxation. C．Such interactions bring people peace of mind. D．If you are kind and loving, they draw close to you. E．But today, they occupy a unique space in our lives. F．They become loyal friends and trusted companions. G．It allows us to share information across time and space. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My wife and I made a rush decision: we adopted a tiny “miniature pig” named Esther. We were told she would weigh 41 70 pounds fully grown. We could never have predicted the 42 mess this little piglet would bring into our quiet home. Months passed, and Esther kept 43 non‑stop. She eventually 44 to a surprising 650 pounds, far bigger than our 45 . Our small house was never 46 for a full‑sized pig, 47 we quickly fell head over heels for her gentle, playful 48 . She would curl up with our dogs on the couch, nuzzle (用鼻子蹭) us for treats, and follow us around the house like a(n) 49 friend. Esther changed every cruel impression about 50 animals; she was smart, loving, and full of 51 . She taught us the true meaning of unconditional 52 and opened our eyes to the joy of 53 life’s surprises. This extraordinary pig didn’t just change our home — she warmed our hearts and 54 our entire lives in the most beautiful way. She became a teacher, showing us that kindness and companionship can 55 in the most unexpected forms and even shaped our views on life and love, making us more caring and more patient. 41．A．as much as B．no more than C．much more than D．far less than 42．A．wonderful B．troublesome C．noisy D．creative 43．A．moving B．sleeping C．growing D．rooting 44．A．switched B．ballooned C．stretched D．slid 45．A．imagination B．wish C．ambition D．desire 46．A．decorated B．arranged C．meant D．reserved 47．A．but B．so C．or D．and 48．A．style B．mood C．tone D．nature 49．A．thoughtful B．new C．loyal D．distant 50．A．farm B．wild C．pet D．land 51．A．responsibility B．personality C．superiority D．creativity 52．A．support B．love C．trust D．respect 53．A．giving B．expecting C．embracing D．preparing 54．A．liberated B．defined C．controlled D．transformed 55．A．come B．lie C．take D．result 第二节（共10小题：每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In recent years, urban birdwatching 56 (become) a popular outdoor activity among people of all ages. Unlike hiking or camping, it requires no fancy equipment and can be done in local parks, even on the way to work. A pair of binoculars (双筒望远镜) is 57 (basic) what most beginners need. By watching birds, people can get close to nature without traveling far away. It also helps people develop a 58 (care) attitude towards the small lives around them. Many cities have set up birdwatching societies 59 organize regular activities for lovers. Experienced birdwatchers are happy to share their knowledge about different bird species 60 living habits. For example, they can tell you which birds stay in the city all year round and which ones only pass by during 61 (they) migration (迁徙). Watching birds is not just for fun. A report says that the number of birds in a city 62 (reflect) the quality of its natural environment. When more birds are seen, 63 usually means the air and water are getting cleaner. 64 a busy modern lifestyle, taking 30 minutes a week to watch birds is a great way 65 (relax) and slow down your pace of life. 第四部分 写作（共两节, 满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．假定你是李华，看到学校英文论坛上有同学发帖，认为教学楼周围的鸟鸣声影响了学习和生活。请你针对此帖写一则回复，内容包括： (1)你的看法； (2)你的建议。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Hi there, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 67．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。 My car was packed, our retirement funds secured, and the map of America marked with our dream route. After four decades of work, we were about to begin our great adventure. But just before departure, my husband fell ill. A quick check-up led to a scan, and then the result: cancer. Just like that, our traveling life was put on hold. Our household, once noisy with multiple dogs, now had only Anna, a gentle dog content to nap in sunbeams. She was a calm comfort. But she couldn’t match the energetic companion my husband desired, one who would bike, swim, and play fetch for hours. My husband, usually unstoppable, now struggled with exhaustion. Our kids visited often, sitting with him during chemo (化疗) and calling to check in. One day, our son and daughter-in-law pulled me aside. “Let us find Dad an energetic dog,” they said. They thought a new companion might lift his spirits. After my husband agreed, the search began. Soon, a photo arrived: Maddie, a German Shorthaired Pointer with a spotted brown coat. Her owner, a soldier, couldn’t keep her in a small apartment. We learned GSPs were born for hunting — energetic, smart, and needing constant activity. Perfect, we thought. When the kids brought her home, out jumped Maddie... and another dog named Capers. “The owner had two dogs,” our daughter-in-law explained. “We couldn’t leave her.” We became a three-dog family overnight. Maddie’s energy was immediate and boundless. The first time we let her loose, she rushed into our neighbor’s yard, searched there and left marks. Our son, who lived next door, put an invisible fence around both our properties. After some training, Maddie learned her boundaries and enjoyed her new freedom, running after squirrels (松鼠), frightening pond frogs and filling the yard with energy. 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。     A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________     Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试题 第3页（共12页） 试题 第4页（共12页） 试题 第1页（共12页） 试题 第2页（共12页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年高二选择性必修第二册英语单元自测 Unit 5 A delicate World·单元自测卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 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，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分1.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1．How does the man feel about the interview result?

Beginning in the open space of the Greenwich Park in the morning, the 26-mile course went its way past famous landmarks like the Tower Bridge, finishing at the entrance of the House of Parliament. Event organizers reported that more than 4,000 runners took part. The weather, cool and cloudy, was ideal for the long-distance run. Among the participants, over 1,200 were over 60 years old, and about 800 people were running not for a fast time, but to raise money for poor families. The first runner to cross the finish line was from Kenya, completing the race in just over two hours. Yet for the vast majority, the main goal was simply the personal achievement of finishing. A 70-year-old woman completed the course in over seven hours without stopping, finally greeted by her proud, smiling family. Events like this marathon show that it is more than just a race; it brings the community together and proves that with strong will, personal goals are within reach. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Surf Lessons in Tamarindo, Costa Rica Want to learn how to ride the waves in Tamarindo during this roughly 1.5-hour surf lesson?

The animals live wild but each one has an owner, identified by a mark on its ear. Anne Ollila, 50, one of 4,000 such owners, works in the Finnish part of this region with her husband and two adult sons and their families. They farm the animals mainly for meat, but reindeer tourism has also become an important source of income. Ollila lives 80 kilometres inside the Arctic Circle, an hour from Lapland’s capital city, Rovaniemi, and seven kilometres from her nearest neighbour. Summer days — when the reindeer raisers earmark newborn reindeer — are long and in June the sun never sets. At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to endure large groups of insects along the way. In deepest winter, there is little daylight. Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles — the birds can kill an adult reindeer. Ollila and her family offer tourists reindeer experiences through their company Reindeer Journey. Visitors can get close to the animals in the wild or at their farm, watching them being trained to pull sledges (雪橇) or take a sleigh ride. “Reindeer are very smart animals,” Ollila, says. “They have different personalities, and some are very funny.” One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.” Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.” 24．What does the underlined word “endure” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Go away with. B．Catch up with. C．Put up with. D．Look forward to. 25．Why do the reindeer move into the forest in winter according to the text? A．To get earmarked. B．To find their owners. C．To avoid cold temperatures. D．To protect themselves. 26．What does Ollila think of Rocky? A．He is foolish. B．He is a troublemaker. C．He is interested in planting trees. D．He is a famous filmmaker. 27．What can we infer about Ollila from the last paragraph? A．She has a deep affection for nature. B．She has long been tired of raising reindeer. C．She has been a sociology researcher since 2010. D．She had no chance to receive a college education. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．B 27．A 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了芬兰拉普兰地区驯鹿饲养者安妮・奥利拉的生活，包括她的驯鹿饲养工作、当地的季节特点、相关的旅游业务，以及她放弃社会学研究工作投身驯鹿饲养的原因和感受。 【详解】24．词句猜测题。根据第二段中“At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to endure large groups of insects along the way.(那时奥利拉白天睡觉，晚上在森林里步行多达20公里，充分利用凉爽的气温工作，但沿途不得不endure大群昆虫的困扰)”可知，endure在这里表示面对昆虫困扰时的应对状态，结合选项，Put up with（忍受）符合语境。故选C。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles — the birds can kill an adult reindeer.(许多草原被冰封，驯鹿进入森林以躲避狼和金雕——这种鸟类能杀死成年驯鹿)”可知，驯鹿冬季进入森林是为了保护自己免受天敌伤害。故选D。 26．细节理解题。根据第五段中“He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.”(“它非常好奇，总是惹麻烦，” 她说。“有一次它把自己卡在树枝上，不得不被救出来，而且众所周知，它还偷走过主人正在晾晒的内衣。”)”可知，奥利拉认为罗基是个麻烦制造者。故选B。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.”(“我热爱这里的环境、动物和自由，” 她说。“而且，我有一种归属感，属于比我更宏大的事物，属于一种代代相传的生活方式。”)可知，奥利拉对自然有着深厚的感情。故选A。 C There is more evidence that green does a brain good. School-aged children who have long-term exposure (接触) to green space are more focused and experience improved memory, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at University of California, Los Angeles. The research links, for the first time, improved cognitive (认知) function to structural changes in the developing brain. The findings could have global meanings, as half the world live in urban areas where access to nature can be limited. The researchers found that children raised in homes surrounded by natural environment had more activity in brain regions associated with learning and the ability to engage with others. They also experienced less distraction and sharper memory — key indicators of academic and social success. A previous study had similar results: children attending schools with significant green space were more focused than those with less. But why exposure to greenery has beneficial effects on the brain is anybody’s guess. “Lower levels of noise and air pollution could be factors,” said study coauthor Michael Jerrett. He also noted that people with better access to parks tend to be more physically active and have lower rates of mental illness. Besides, “biophilia hypothesis (亲生命假说) suggests humans have an inborn tendency toward nature, which affords children opportunities for creativity, risk-taking, and psychological restoration — all believed to aid brain development.” The benefits of green space, however, are not shared by every community. In Los Angeles, 45% of residents in low-income neighbourhoods lack walkable access to a park. “These gaps are not accidental,” said Robert Garcia, founding director of the City Project, who blames them for unbalanced housing and land use practices. Some progress has been made. In 2016, Measure A was passed to expand parks and improve facilities, giving priority to low-income communities. “As we get more and more of this evidence, it’s the duty of urban planners to start looking at nature as a very positive solution to many urban problems,” said Jerrett. 28．What is the key finding of the recent study? A．Urban living harms focus. B．Nature improves brain development. C．City life limits green space. D．Greenness makes children successful. 29．How does the author explain the beneficial effects of greenery? A．By quoting research data. B．By offering various examples. C．By listing possible causes. D．By comparing opposite views. 30．Why are the benefits of green space not shared by every community? A．Funding shortage. B．Limited urban space. C．Environmental issues. D．Unequal city planning. 31．What would Michael Jerrett probably suggest? A．Further studies on brain health. B．More parks in poor neighbourhoods. C．Stronger reduction in pollution. D．Larger investment in local economy. 【答案】28．B 29．C 30．D 31．B 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项新研究证实绿植环境有益于儿童大脑发育、提升认知能力，并列举绿植健脑的多种原因，指出不同社区享受绿色空间资源不均的问题，以及相关改善措施与专家建议。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据原文第一段“School-aged children who have long-term exposure to green space are more focused and experience improved memory, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at University of California, Los Angeles.(加州大学洛杉矶分校研究人员开展的一项最新研究表明，长期接触绿地的学龄儿童专注力更强、记忆力更好。)”可知，大自然能够促进儿童大脑发育，是该研究的核心发现。 29．推理判断题。根据原文第三段“Lower levels of noise and air pollution could be factors (更低的噪音和空气污染水平可能是影响因素。)”、“people with better access to parks tend to be more physically active and have lower rates of mental illness.(更容易接触公园的人往往运动量更大、心理疾病患病率更低)” 以及 “biophilia hypothesis suggests humans have an inborn tendency toward nature...(亲生命假说表明人类天生亲近自然……)” 可知，作者通过列举多种可能原因，解释绿植对大脑的益处。 30．细节理解题。根据原文第四段““These gaps are not accidental,” said Robert Garcia, founding director of the City Project, who blames them for unbalanced housing and land use practices.(城市项目创始负责人Robert Garcia表示，这些差距并非偶然，是不均衡的住房和土地利用规划造成的。)”可知，城市规划的不公平导致并非所有社区都能享有绿地带来的益处。 31．推理判断题。根据原文最后一段““In 2016, Measure A was passed to expand parks and improve facilities, giving priority to low-income communities. “As we get more and more of this evidence, it’s the duty of urban planners to start looking at nature as a very positive solution to many urban problems,” said Jerrett.(2016 年，A 号提案获得通过，旨在扩建公园、完善配套设施，并优先惠及低收入社区。杰雷特表示：“随着相关佐证越来越充分，城市规划者有责任将自然环境视为解决诸多城市问题的绝佳良方。”)”可知，Jerrett大概率建议在贫困社区修建更多公园。 D Many people visit PacSci’s Tropical Butterfly House in Seattle just for fun, but few know its deep environmental message: all living creatures have natural creativity to adapt to changing surroundings, and humans should respect and protect wildlife and build balanced habitats for them. Seattle has cold weather, totally different from tropical butterflies’ natural homes. Scientists create a small human-controlled tropical ecosystem to keep butterflies alive. They control temperature, humidity and light to fight the cold local climate. Even so, the butterflies’ and plants’ own ability to survive matters most. Plants adjust water intake under human care; butterflies follow light cycles to live normally. This shows clearly that wild animals are born with strong adaptability. Another exhibit called Wild Creativity in an exhibition explains this rule further. Wild plants and animals develop special skills to survive environmental changes. Butterflies feed and rest on certain tropical plants, while they help plants pollinate (授粉). The two depend on each other, forming a balanced cycle. This interdependence is the “wild creativity” formed by nature over thousands of years. Some visitors say building such a man-made tropical room wastes money and energy, and wildlife should live in the wild. However, they miss two important values of the butterfly house. First, all butterflies here are bred by eco-farms instead of being caught in the wild, so wild tropical butterfly groups won’t be harmed. Second, it acts as a living classroom. People living in cities far from rainforests can watch tropical animals closely and raise their environmental awareness. Running the butterfly house takes long-term work: taking care of plants with seasons, keeping stable climate all year and working with zoos and greenhouses. Public donations help cover high running costs. The long success of the house tells us: human intervention (干预) does not mean destroying nature. If we follow conservation ideas, human wisdom can create safe temporary homes for wild animals and spread environmental protection knowledge. The natural adaptability of wildlife guides humans to protect nature. The butterfly house is more than a tourist spot. It reminds us that humans and wild animals can live in peace with proper creative efforts. 32．What is the main idea conveyed through the butterfly house? A．Tropical butterflies are beautiful to watch. B．Seattle’s cold weather is bad for tropical plants. C．The butterfly house costs lots of money to build. D．Wild creatures can naturally adapt to environmental changes. 33．What do we know about the butterflies in PacSci’s exhibition? A．They are captured from wild rainforests. B．They coexist with wild pollination plants. C．They can be harmed with people visiting them frequently. D．They cannot adapt to the man-made light cycle in the house. 34．What is the author’s attitude toward people against the butterfly house? A．Neutral. B．Supportive. C．Disapproving. D．Indifferent. 35．What’s the value of the Tropical Butterfly House according to the text? A．It only offers nice sightseeing. B．It takes the place of natural wild habitats. C．It reduces costs by ending cooperation with botanical partners. D．It combines wildlife protection with environmental education. 【答案】32．D 33．B 34．C 35．D 【导语】本文主要介绍了西雅图热带蝴蝶馆不仅展示生物的天然适应能力，还通过人工生态系统保护与科普教育，倡导人类尊重自然、构建人与自然和谐共处的栖息地。 【详解】32．细节理解题。根据第一段“Many people visit PacSci’s Tropical Butterfly House in Seattle just for fun, but few know its deep environmental message: all living creatures have natural creativity to adapt to changing surroundings, and humans should respect and protect wildlife and build balanced habitats for them. (许多人参观西雅图PacSci热带蝴蝶馆只是为了好玩，却鲜有人知晓其深层的环保寓意：所有生物都拥有适应不断变化的环境的天然创造力，人类应当尊重并保护野生动物，为其构建平衡的栖息地)”可知，蝴蝶馆传达的核心观点是野生动物具备天然的适应环境变化的能力。 33．推理判断题。根据第三段“Butterflies feed and rest on certain tropical plants, while they help plants pollinate (授粉). The two depend on each other, forming a balanced cycle. (蝴蝶在某些热带植物上觅食和休息，同时帮助植物授粉。二者相互依存，形成一个平衡的循环)”可知，馆内的蝴蝶与用于授粉的热带植物共存共生。 34．推理判断题。根据第四段“Some visitors say building such a man-made tropical room wastes money and energy, and wildlife should live in the wild. However, they miss two important values of the butterfly house. First, all butterflies here are bred by eco-farms instead of being caught in the wild, so wild tropical butterfly groups won’t be harmed. Second, it acts as a living classroom. People living in cities far from rainforests can watch tropical animals closely and raise their environmental awareness. (一些游客说建造这样一个人造热带房间浪费金钱和能源，野生动物应该生活在野外。然而，他们错过了蝴蝶馆两个重要的价值。首先，这里的所有蝴蝶都是由生态农场培育的，而不是从野外捕获的，所以野生的热带蝴蝶群不会受到伤害。其次，它作为一个活的课堂。住在远离雨林的城市里的人们可以近距离观察热带动物，提高他们的环保意识)”可知，作者针对反对意见进行了有理有据的反驳，指出了蝴蝶馆在保护和教育方面的双重价值，态度是不赞成的。 35．细节理解题。根据第四段“Second, it acts as a living classroom. People living in cities far from rainforests can watch tropical animals closely and raise their environmental awareness.(其次，它是一个活的课堂。住在远离雨林的城市里的人们可以近距离观察热带动物，提高他们的环保意识)”以及第五段“If we follow conservation ideas, human wisdom can create safe temporary homes for wild animals and spread environmental protection knowledge.(如果我们遵循保护理念，人类的智慧可以为野生动物创造安全的临时家园，并传播环保知识)”可知，蝴蝶馆的价值在于将野生动物保护与环境教育有机结合。 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。 Humans have long depended on animals. Whether we saw them as food or as a means of getting work done, they enabled us to survive. 36 Most of us don’t need them to work for us; we need them to love us. In a rapidly changing, digitally driven world, they keep us grounded and connected to reality. Petting a dog, listening to a cat purr, or even watching a school of fish swim activates sensory processes in our brains. Their textures, their non-verbal expressions, and even their smells force us to pay attention to the present rather than worry about the future. When they are begging for a treat or hoping for a head scratch, they make us feel as though our attention is valuable. 37 While we know that the people around us need us to do our jobs, to behave in civil ways, and to maintain relationships, human interactions are complex and mostly rely on language. 38 But it also makes it possible to lie and to manipulate (操控) each other. When dealing with others, we are always balancing our own desires and insecurities against theirs. When people betray our trust physically, financially, or emotionally, we wonder why we failed to detect the insincerity beneath their actions. But with animals, we have a sense that what you see is what you get. 39 If you harm them, they will hide or defend themselves, but they don’t pretend to love you while taking advantage of you behind your back. For many people, pets are more than just animals. 40 They offer us pure, honest affection that is hard to find in human communication. A．And they can make us feel needed. B．They are merely for fun and relaxation. C．Such interactions bring people peace of mind. D．If you are kind and loving, they draw close to you. E．But today, they occupy a unique space in our lives. F．They become loyal friends and trusted companions. G．It allows us to share information across time and space. 【答案】36．E 37．A 38．G 39．D 40．F 【导语】本文对比过去与现在人与动物的关系，分析宠物能舒缓情绪、给予纯粹真诚陪伴、区别于复杂人际交往的独特价值。 【详解】36．根据空前的“Humans have long depended on animals. Whether we saw them as food or as a means of getting work done, they enabled us to survive.(人类长久以来依赖动物，无论是当作食物还是劳作工具，动物帮助人类得以生存。)”以及空后的“Most of us don’t need them to work for us; we need them to love us.(如今大多数人不再需要动物劳作，而是需要它们给予陪伴与爱意。)”可知，前后存在今昔对比，空格需要转折体现动物在现代生活的全新定位。E选项“But today, they occupy a unique space in our lives (但如今，动物在我们的生活中占据着独特的位置)”通过But完成过去与现在的转折过渡，衔接前后不同时代人与动物的相处模式，符合语境。 37．根据空前的“When they are begging for a treat or hoping for a head scratch, they make us feel as though our attention is valuable.(当宠物讨要零食、渴望抚摸时，会让我们感受到自己的关注十分珍贵。)”可知，空格承接上文，进一步说明宠物带给人的心理感受。A选项“And they can make us feel needed (并且它们会让我们体会到被需要的感觉)”中的And顺承前文，补充宠物带来的情绪价值，贴合本段宠物舒缓身心的主旨，符合语境。 38．根据空前的“While we know that the people around us need us to do our jobs, to behave in civil ways, and to maintain relationships, human interactions are complex and mostly rely on language. (尽管我们清楚身边的人需要我们做好本职、举止得体、维系人际关系，但人与人之间的交往十分复杂，并且大多依靠语言进行。)”以及空后的“But it also makes it possible to lie and to manipulate (操控) each other.(但语言也让人们得以互相欺骗、利用彼此。)”可知，空格先介绍语言沟通的正面作用，再由But转折引出弊端。G选项“It allows us to share information across time and space (语言让我们能够跨越时空传递信息)”中It指代前文的language，先阐述语言沟通的优势，再衔接后文转折内容，逻辑通顺，符合语境。 39．根据空前的“But with animals, we have a sense that what you see is what you get.(但和动物相处时，我们能感受到它们表里如一。)”以及空后的“If you harm them, they will hide or defend themselves, but they don’t pretend to love you while taking advantage of you behind your back.(如果你伤害它们，它们会躲避或自卫，却不会假意亲近、背地里利用你。)”可知，空格对应后文的反面情况，说明善待动物时它们的真诚回应。D选项“If you are kind and loving, they draw close to you (如果你温柔善待它们，它们就会主动靠近你)”形成正反对比，完整诠释动物纯粹不虚伪的特质，符合语境。 40．根据空前的“For many people, pets are more than just animals.(对很多人而言，宠物不只是普通动物。)”以及空后的“They offer us pure, honest affection that is hard to find in human communication.(它们给予我们纯粹真挚的爱意，这份情感在人际交往中很难寻觅。)”可知，空格需要说明宠物超越普通动物的身份定位。F选项“They become loyal friends and trusted companions (它们成为忠诚可靠、值得信赖的伙伴)”承接上文宠物不止是动物，引出后文纯粹真挚的情感陪伴，符合语境。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My wife and I made a rush decision: we adopted a tiny “miniature pig” named Esther. We were told she would weigh 41 70 pounds fully grown. We could never have predicted the 42 mess this little piglet would bring into our quiet home. Months passed, and Esther kept 43 non‑stop. She eventually 44 to a surprising 650 pounds, far bigger than our 45 . Our small house was never 46 for a full‑sized pig, 47 we quickly fell head over heels for her gentle, playful 48 . She would curl up with our dogs on the couch, nuzzle (用鼻子蹭) us for treats, and follow us around the house like a(n) 49 friend. Esther changed every cruel impression about 50 animals; she was smart, loving, and full of 51 .

Many cities have set up birdwatching societies 59 organize regular activities for lovers. Experienced birdwatchers are happy to share their knowledge about different bird species 60 living habits. For example, they can tell you which birds stay in the city all year round and which ones only pass by during 61 (they) migration (迁徙). Watching birds is not just for fun. A report says that the number of birds in a city 62 (reflect) the quality of its natural environment.

After four decades of work, we were about to begin our great adventure. But just before departure, my husband fell ill. A quick check-up led to a scan, and then the result: cancer. Just like that, our traveling life was put on hold. Our household, once noisy with multiple dogs, now had only Anna, a gentle dog content to nap in sunbeams. She was a calm comfort. But she couldn’t match the energetic companion my husband desired, one who would bike, swim, and play fetch for hours. My husband, usually unstoppable, now struggled with exhaustion. Our kids visited often, sitting with him during chemo (化疗) and calling to check in. One day, our son and daughter-in-law pulled me aside. “Let us find Dad an energetic dog,” they said. They thought a new companion might lift his spirits. After my husband agreed, the search began. Soon, a photo arrived: Maddie, a German Shorthaired Pointer with a spotted brown coat. Her owner, a soldier, couldn’t keep her in a small apartment. We learned GSPs were born for hunting — energetic, smart, and needing constant activity. Perfect, we thought. When the kids brought her home, out jumped Maddie... and another dog named Capers. “The owner had two dogs,” our daughter-in-law explained. “We couldn’t leave her.” We became a three-dog family overnight. Maddie’s energy was immediate and boundless. The first time we let her loose, she rushed into our neighbor’s yard, searched there and left marks. Our son, who lived next door, put an invisible fence around both our properties. After some training, Maddie learned her boundaries and enjoyed her new freedom, running after squirrels (松鼠), frightening pond frogs and filling the yard with energy. 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。     A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________     Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】     A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. While Anna and Capers wandered, Maddie stayed glued to his side, transforming his good days into exciting adventures. She became his shadow. Her wet nose touched him whenever he looked tired, pulling him into the sunlight. Together, they explored around the yard — he rescued a turtle from her jaws, calmed her panic when she saw a water snake, and once, they even chased a wild pig across the neighboring fields. His laughter was heard in once silent places. Life was full of fun.     Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. Maddie’s energy was so infectious that it influenced my husband positively. When the next round of chemo returned, the tiredness felt different. Through the whole process, Maddie would lay her head on his lap. Her steady breathing showed that their adventures were merely a temporary stop. She had become my husband’s spiritual companion and his reason to push through the hard time and fight for the next good day, and for the next chase across the field. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了夫妻二人计划开启退休环游之旅，丈夫却不幸确诊癌症，旅行计划被迫搁置。儿女为丈夫找来精力充沛的猎犬Maddie，同时带回另一只小狗Capers。Maddie旺盛的活力陪伴并鼓舞丈夫积极对抗化疗。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Maddie时刻陪伴丈夫，和丈夫在院子周边相伴游玩，给沉闷的生活带来欢声笑语。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写化疗期间Maddie不离不弃的陪伴，成为丈夫的精神支柱，支撑他熬过艰难的治疗时光。 2. 续写线索： 与Maddie建立亲密羁绊——相伴游玩、重拾欢笑——鼓舞丈夫对抗病痛——化疗期间贴心陪伴——成为精神寄托 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 漫步：wander/roam ② 追赶：chase/pursue ③ 影响：influence/affect 情绪类 ①令人兴奋的：exciting/thrilling ②疲惫的：tired/exhausted 【点睛】【高分句型1】Her wet nose touched him whenever he looked tired, pulling him into the sunlight.(运用了whenever引导的时间状语从句和现在分词短语pulling him into the sunlight作伴随状语) 【高分句型2】Maddie’s energy was so infectious that it influenced my husband positively.(运用了so… that…引导的结果状语从句) 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年高二选择性必修第二册英语单元自测 Unit 5 A delicate World·单元自测卷 学校:___________班级：___________姓名：___________分数：___________ （时间：120分钟，满分：150分） 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，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上，写在本试卷上无效。 3. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节(共5小题;每小题1.5分，满分1.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1．How does the man feel about the interview result?

B Finnish Lapland, in the far north of Europe, is home to some 180,000 people and around 200,000 reindeer (驯鹿). The animals live wild but each one has an owner, identified by a mark on its ear. Anne Ollila, 50, one of 4,000 such owners, works in the Finnish part of this region with her husband and two adult sons and their families. They farm the animals mainly for meat, but reindeer tourism has also become an important source of income. Ollila lives 80 kilometres inside the Arctic Circle, an hour from Lapland’s capital city, Rovaniemi, and seven kilometres from her nearest neighbour. Summer days — when the reindeer raisers earmark newborn reindeer — are long and in June the sun never sets. At that time Ollila sleeps during the day and walks up to 20 kilometres a night through the forest, making the most of the cooler temperatures to do her work but having to endure large groups of insects along the way. In deepest winter, there is little daylight. Many grasslands are frozen and the reindeer move into the forest for protection against wolves and golden eagles — the birds can kill an adult reindeer. Ollila and her family offer tourists reindeer experiences through their company Reindeer Journey. Visitors can get close to the animals in the wild or at their farm, watching them being trained to pull sledges (雪橇) or take a sleigh ride. “Reindeer are very smart animals,” Ollila, says. “They have different personalities, and some are very funny.” One of her favourites is Rocky, named after the movie boxing legend. “He’s very curious and always in trouble,” she says. “He once got himself stuck in tree branches and had to be lifted out, and he has been known to walk off with his owners’ drying underwear.” Ollila gave up her job as a sociology researcher at the University of Lapland in 2010 to devote herself to raising reindeer. “I love the environment, the animals and the freedom,” she says. “Also, I have a sense of belonging to something bigger than me, to a way of life through the generations.” 24．What does the underlined word “endure” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Go away with. B．Catch up with. C．Put up with. D．Look forward to. 25．Why do the reindeer move into the forest in winter according to the text? A．To get earmarked. B．To find their owners. C．To avoid cold temperatures. D．To protect themselves. 26．What does Ollila think of Rocky? A．He is foolish. B．He is a troublemaker. C．He is interested in planting trees. D．He is a famous filmmaker. 27．What can we infer about Ollila from the last paragraph? A．She has a deep affection for nature. B．She has long been tired of raising reindeer. C．She has been a sociology researcher since 2010. D．She had no chance to receive a college education. C There is more evidence that green does a brain good. School-aged children who have long-term exposure (接触) to green space are more focused and experience improved memory, according to a recent study conducted by researchers at University of California, Los Angeles. The research links, for the first time, improved cognitive (认知) function to structural changes in the developing brain. The findings could have global meanings, as half the world live in urban areas where access to nature can be limited. The researchers found that children raised in homes surrounded by natural environment had more activity in brain regions associated with learning and the ability to engage with others. They also experienced less distraction and sharper memory — key indicators of academic and social success. A previous study had similar results: children attending schools with significant green space were more focused than those with less. But why exposure to greenery has beneficial effects on the brain is anybody’s guess. “Lower levels of noise and air pollution could be factors,” said study coauthor Michael Jerrett. He also noted that people with better access to parks tend to be more physically active and have lower rates of mental illness. Besides, “biophilia hypothesis (亲生命假说) suggests humans have an inborn tendency toward nature, which affords children opportunities for creativity, risk-taking, and psychological restoration — all believed to aid brain development.” The benefits of green space, however, are not shared by every community. In Los Angeles, 45% of residents in low-income neighbourhoods lack walkable access to a park. “These gaps are not accidental,” said Robert Garcia, founding director of the City Project, who blames them for unbalanced housing and land use practices. Some progress has been made. In 2016, Measure A was passed to expand parks and improve facilities, giving priority to low-income communities. “As we get more and more of this evidence, it’s the duty of urban planners to start looking at nature as a very positive solution to many urban problems,” said Jerrett. 28．What is the key finding of the recent study? A．Urban living harms focus. B．Nature improves brain development. C．City life limits green space. D．Greenness makes children successful. 29．How does the author explain the beneficial effects of greenery? A．By quoting research data. B．By offering various examples. C．By listing possible causes. D．By comparing opposite views. 30．Why are the benefits of green space not shared by every community? A．Funding shortage. B．Limited urban space. C．Environmental issues. D．Unequal city planning. 31．What would Michael Jerrett probably suggest? A．Further studies on brain health. B．More parks in poor neighbourhoods. C．Stronger reduction in pollution. D．Larger investment in local economy. D Many people visit PacSci’s Tropical Butterfly House in Seattle just for fun, but few know its deep environmental message: all living creatures have natural creativity to adapt to changing surroundings, and humans should respect and protect wildlife and build balanced habitats for them. Seattle has cold weather, totally different from tropical butterflies’ natural homes. Scientists create a small human-controlled tropical ecosystem to keep butterflies alive. They control temperature, humidity and light to fight the cold local climate. Even so, the butterflies’ and plants’ own ability to survive matters most. Plants adjust water intake under human care; butterflies follow light cycles to live normally. This shows clearly that wild animals are born with strong adaptability. Another exhibit called Wild Creativity in an exhibition explains this rule further. Wild plants and animals develop special skills to survive environmental changes. Butterflies feed and rest on certain tropical plants, while they help plants pollinate (授粉). The two depend on each other, forming a balanced cycle. This interdependence is the “wild creativity” formed by nature over thousands of years. Some visitors say building such a man-made tropical room wastes money and energy, and wildlife should live in the wild. However, they miss two important values of the butterfly house. First, all butterflies here are bred by eco-farms instead of being caught in the wild, so wild tropical butterfly groups won’t be harmed. Second, it acts as a living classroom. People living in cities far from rainforests can watch tropical animals closely and raise their environmental awareness. Running the butterfly house takes long-term work: taking care of plants with seasons, keeping stable climate all year and working with zoos and greenhouses. Public donations help cover high running costs. The long success of the house tells us: human intervention (干预) does not mean destroying nature. If we follow conservation ideas, human wisdom can create safe temporary homes for wild animals and spread environmental protection knowledge. The natural adaptability of wildlife guides humans to protect nature. The butterfly house is more than a tourist spot. It reminds us that humans and wild animals can live in peace with proper creative efforts. 32．What is the main idea conveyed through the butterfly house? A．Tropical butterflies are beautiful to watch. B．Seattle’s cold weather is bad for tropical plants. C．The butterfly house costs lots of money to build. D．Wild creatures can naturally adapt to environmental changes. 33．What do we know about the butterflies in PacSci’s exhibition? A．They are captured from wild rainforests. B．They coexist with wild pollination plants. C．They can be harmed with people visiting them frequently. D．They cannot adapt to the man-made light cycle in the house. 34．What is the author’s attitude toward people against the butterfly house? A．Neutral. B．Supportive. C．Disapproving. D．Indifferent. 35．What’s the value of the Tropical Butterfly House according to the text? A．It only offers nice sightseeing. B．It takes the place of natural wild habitats. C．It reduces costs by ending cooperation with botanical partners. D．It combines wildlife protection with environmental education. 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。 Humans have long depended on animals. Whether we saw them as food or as a means of getting work done, they enabled us to survive. 36 Most of us don’t need them to work for us; we need them to love us. In a rapidly changing, digitally driven world, they keep us grounded and connected to reality. Petting a dog, listening to a cat purr, or even watching a school of fish swim activates sensory processes in our brains. Their textures, their non-verbal expressions, and even their smells force us to pay attention to the present rather than worry about the future. When they are begging for a treat or hoping for a head scratch, they make us feel as though our attention is valuable. 37 While we know that the people around us need us to do our jobs, to behave in civil ways, and to maintain relationships, human interactions are complex and mostly rely on language. 38 But it also makes it possible to lie and to manipulate (操控) each other. When dealing with others, we are always balancing our own desires and insecurities against theirs. When people betray our trust physically, financially, or emotionally, we wonder why we failed to detect the insincerity beneath their actions. But with animals, we have a sense that what you see is what you get. 39 If you harm them, they will hide or defend themselves, but they don’t pretend to love you while taking advantage of you behind your back. For many people, pets are more than just animals. 40 They offer us pure, honest affection that is hard to find in human communication. A．And they can make us feel needed. B．They are merely for fun and relaxation. C．Such interactions bring people peace of mind. D．If you are kind and loving, they draw close to you. E．But today, they occupy a unique space in our lives. F．They become loyal friends and trusted companions. G．It allows us to share information across time and space. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题：每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My wife and I made a rush decision: we adopted a tiny “miniature pig” named Esther.

She taught us the true meaning of unconditional 52 and opened our eyes to the joy of 53 life’s surprises.

She became a teacher, showing us that kindness and companionship can 55 in the most unexpected forms and even shaped our views on life and love, making us more caring and more patient. 41．A．as much as B．no more than C．much more than D．far less than 42．A．wonderful B．troublesome C．noisy D．creative 43．A．moving B．sleeping C．growing D．rooting 44．A．switched B．ballooned C．stretched D．slid 45．A．imagination B．wish C．ambition D．desire 46．A．decorated B．arranged C．meant D．reserved 47．A．but B．so C．or D．and 48．A．style B．mood C．tone D．nature 49．A．thoughtful B．new C．loyal D．distant 50．A．farm B．wild C．pet D．land 51．A．responsibility B．personality C．superiority D．creativity 52．A．support B．love C．trust D．respect 53．A．giving B．expecting C．embracing D．preparing 54．A．liberated B．defined C．controlled D．transformed 55．A．come B．lie C．take D．result 第二节（共10小题：每小题1. 5分, 满分15分） 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In recent years, urban birdwatching 56 (become) a popular outdoor activity among people of all ages.

After four decades of work, we were about to begin our great adventure. But just before departure, my husband fell ill. A quick check-up led to a scan, and then the result: cancer. Just like that, our traveling life was put on hold. Our household, once noisy with multiple dogs, now had only Anna, a gentle dog content to nap in sunbeams. She was a calm comfort. But she couldn’t match the energetic companion my husband desired, one who would bike, swim, and play fetch for hours. My husband, usually unstoppable, now struggled with exhaustion. Our kids visited often, sitting with him during chemo (化疗) and calling to check in. One day, our son and daughter-in-law pulled me aside. “Let us find Dad an energetic dog,” they said. They thought a new companion might lift his spirits. After my husband agreed, the search began. Soon, a photo arrived: Maddie, a German Shorthaired Pointer with a spotted brown coat. Her owner, a soldier, couldn’t keep her in a small apartment. We learned GSPs were born for hunting — energetic, smart, and needing constant activity. Perfect, we thought. When the kids brought her home, out jumped Maddie... and another dog named Capers. “The owner had two dogs,” our daughter-in-law explained. “We couldn’t leave her.” We became a three-dog family overnight. Maddie’s energy was immediate and boundless. The first time we let her loose, she rushed into our neighbor’s yard, searched there and left marks. Our son, who lived next door, put an invisible fence around both our properties. After some training, Maddie learned her boundaries and enjoyed her new freedom, running after squirrels (松鼠), frightening pond frogs and filling the yard with energy. 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。     A bond formed instantly between Maddie and my husband. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________     Maddie’s energy strengthened my husband’s courage to fight chemo. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 原创精品资源学科网独家享有版权，侵权必究！1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 / 23 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Hi, mike, how was your interview for the bookstore job?

The streets of london were filled with energy yesterday for the city's famous yearly marathon, a major international sporting event beginning in the open space of the ginny park. In the morning, the twenty six mile course went its way. P passed famous landMarks like the tower bridge, finishing at the entrance of the house of parliament. Event organizers reported that more than four thousand runners took part. The weather, cool and cloudy, was ideal for the long distance run among the participants. Over one thousand, two hundred or over sixty years old, and about eight hundred people were run not for a fast time, but to raise money for poor families. The first runner to cross the finish line was from kenya, completing the race in just over two hours. Yet for the vast majority, the main goal was simply the personal achievement of finishing. A seventy year old woman completed the course in over seven hours without stopping, finally greeted by her proud, smiling family. Events like this marathon show that IT is more than just a race. IT brings the community together and proves that with strong will, personal goals are within reach.
