West Highland Railway Line is one of the “greatest hits” of the landscapes Scotland offers. The line can be enjoyed through the comfortable Caledonian Sleeper might train from London to Fort William, with the last stretch of the journey accompanied by breakfast. Remember to keep an eye out for stags (雄鹿)as they survey their kingdom. The Ghan, Australia Widely regarded as one of the world’s greatest rail journeys, it runs weekly over a 2,979-kilometer route crossing the length of Australia from Adelaide in the south to Darwin in the Northern Territory. Each trip takes more than 53 hours, including extended stops in remote towns such as Coober Pedy for passengers to experience the Outback during off-train tours. Qinghai-Xizang Railway, China For centuries, known as “The Roof of the World”, Xizang was visited only by the hardiest travelers and explorers, but the opening of the remarkable Qinghai-Xizang Railway in 2006 created a permanent connection with the Chinese rail network. The 1,956 kilometer route from Xining to Lhasa tops out at the Tanggula Pass, 5,068 meters above sea level. With its opening, direct trains run to Lhasa from Beijing in 40 hours and Shanghai 47 hours. The TranzAlpine, New Zealand The TranzAlpine takes four and a half hours to cover just 224 kilometers. Its famous “open-air carriage (客车厢)” is the real highlight. This open-sided car allows passengers to experience the fresh mountain air first-hand and take amazing landscape photos. Passengers can also now listen to a GPS-based audio commentary in English, enjoying stories about places along the route, the country and its culture. 21. Which of the following railways is the longest? A. West Highland Railway. B. The Ghan. C. Qinghai-Xizang Railway. D. The TranzAlpine. 22.

Read books about local culture. C. Watch TV programs in English. D. Experience the open-sided car. B Queen Elizabeth II, who ascended the British throne at 25, has passed away at the age of 96. On Sept. 8, the official Twitter account belonging to the royal family confirmed the news, writing, “The Queen died peacefully at Balmoral this afternoon.” The news came hours after Buckingham Palace issued a statement on Sept. 8, sharing that doctors were “concerned” with the Queen’s health and recommended she “remain under medical supervision.” While Her Majesty stayed busy with a variety of royal engagements even in the final years of her life, some royal watchers grew concerned about her heath after the Queen started using a cane and was briefly hospitalized in October 2021 for an undisclosed ailment. In February, the fears grew stronger after she tested positive for COVID-19, just weeks after she celebrated 70 years on the British throne to become the longest-reigning monarch in British history. However, the Queen would make a rare appearance a little over three months later in May at the Royal Windsor Horse Show. But after the first day of her Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June, the Palace shared at the time that she experienced “some discomfort”, leading her to miss the National Service of Thanksgiving at St. Paul’s Cathedral on June 3. Back in 1952, Elizabeth became queen upon the death of her father, King George VI. In 2015, she surpassed the previous longest-reigning British monarch, her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria, and also became the longest-serving female head of state in world history. Her extraordinary reign included countless overseas visits with world leaders but the Queen always viewed public and voluntary service as one of the most important elements of her work. According to the Palace, Elizabeth had links — as President or Royal Patron — with over 600 charities, military associations, professional bodies and public service organizations. “I declare before you all that my whole life whether it be long or short shall be devoted to your service,” Elizabeth shared on her 21st birthday, back when she was still known as Princess Elizabeth. Elizabeth was married to the late Prince Philip for 73 years before he passed away in April 2021 at the age of 99. At the Duke of Edinburgh’s funeral, a card was seen atop of the late royal’s coffin. The note, written on the Queen’s stationery and placed alongside flowers, appeared to read in part, “I love you.” The Queen carried out all of her duties while raising four children: Prince Charles, Princess Anne, Prince Andrew and Prince Edward. During her incredible life, she would also welcome eight grandchildren, and 12 great-grandchildren to the Royal Family. At the time of Philip’s passing, Prince Harry reflected on his grandparents’ incredible love story. “The two of them together were just the most adorable couple,” he shared. “I don’t know if anyone’s ever described them as adorable but, to me, knowing the cheekiness of him and knowing that behind what the world sees you have two individuals who were very much in love, and both at a very young age, dedicated both of their lives to service. The places these two travelled, the things they saw, the experiences they went through. That is an incredible bond between two people.” 24. What is the best title of this article? A. The love story between Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip B. The Queen’s legacy would live on C. Long live the Queen D. Queen Elizabeth II passed away at the age of 96 25. Which of the following statements is NOT TRUE? A. The Queen has become the longest reigning monarch in British history. B. The Queen was forced to miss several events in the final stage of her life due to some health issues. C. The Queen reigns longer than her great-great-grandmother Queen Victoria and even longer than any other leader in the world. D. The Queen is always dedicated to public and voluntary service, even at the end of her days. 26. What does the underlined word “stationery” refer to? A. station. B. envelope. C. pen. D. works. 27. What can be implied from the last paragraph? A. The Queen and her husband both dedicated their lives to service. B. The Queen and her husband formed a special bond and shared a lot of common experiences. C. The Queen and her husband’s love story has become an exemplar for the whole royal family. D. The only person who understands Prince Philip is the Queen. C Companies like Google, Apple and Intel offer some of California’s most cutting-edge and highest-paying jobs. Last year, those three companies alone brought in more than 10,000 people from other countries to take those jobs. Surely it’d be simpler for them to hire closer to home. Among the key reasons they don’t is that too few Californians have the skills in particular, the deep understanding of mathematics to qualify. It’s something the state’s new proposed math framework seeks to change. The current system mathematics leaching in the U.S. invites few students into the richness of thought and of learning. We blunt our children’s possibilities nearly from the start, telling far too many of them at a very early age that math isn’t for them. Sometimes those communications are clear and direct; they’re planted in decisions, by schools or districts, to put students on different tracks as early as third or fourth grade and teach them that math often limits how for they can go. My first assignment as a mathematics teacher was to teach 13-year-olds who had been assigned to the lower-level tracks. One girl understood the message of that ability grouping all too well. She caught me up short with the question, “Why should I bother?” The question became our shared challenge. I gave her more difficult work so she could do well on the national mathematics exam. She passed that exam, which allowed her to train to become a sound engineer. She had been told she was not good enough for mathematics and it was not true. Too many students in California arc given the same message and it is one of the reasons the U.S. has relatively few students who are proficient in math. That’s why California’s new mathematics framework has been introduced. 28. What does the author intend to show by mentioning some companies? A. Their competing advantage. B. Their hires in foreign countries. C. Their benefits from high tech. D. Their demand for staff qualification. 29. What does the underlined word “blunt” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Reduce. B. Explore. C. Test. D. Accept. 30. What was the girl’s attitude towards the ability grouping? A. Tolerant. B. Neutral. C. Disapproving. D. Unconcerned. 31. What will be talked about next? A. Need for framework change. B. Contents of the new framework. C. Comments on the existing framework. D. Challenges from the framework making. D New research has found that people with mild cognitive impairment (认知损坏) may not necessarily develop dementia (痴呆) and, in fact, having higher education and advanced language skills more than doubles their chances of returning to normal. The study, led by researchers at the University of Waterloo, may reassure those with mild cognitive impairment as it contradicts a common assumption that the condition is simply an early stage of dementia. People with mild cognitive impairment show signs of cognitive decline, but not enough to prevent them from performing typical daily tasks. They have been considered at higher risk of progressing to the more severe cognitive decline seen in dementia. “Possessing high cognitive reserve, based on education, high academic grades, and written language skills, may predict what happens years after someone receives a diagnosis of mild cognitive impairment,” said Suzanne Tyas, a professor in the School of Public Health Sciences at Waterloo and lead author. “Even after considering age, genetics and established risk factors for dementia, we found that higher levels of education more than doubled the chances that people with mild cognitive impairment would return to normal cognition instead of progressing to dementia.” The study’s findings have meanings for treatment and research in people with mild cognitive impairment. “If individuals with higher cognitive reserve are more likely to improve even without treatment, then this needs to be taken into consideration when recruiting participants for clinical trials of prospective treatments and when interpreting the results of these trials.” Tyas said, adding there’s no cure for most causes of dementia, so the act of stopping it from occurring is key. 32. About mild cognitive impairment, which is consistent with the new study? A. It must result in dementia. B. It is an early stage of dementia. C. It doesn’t surely lead to dementia. D. It will stop people’s daily action. 33. How is one’s cognitive reserve assessed? A. Through level of education. B. Through social frequency. C. Through personal income. D. Through personal relationship, 34. What is the most significant thing to do with dementia? A. Proper cure. B. Medical care. C. Early prevention. D. Specific medicine. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Higher education and language skills may help stop dementia. B. Age and genetics are established risk factors for dementia. C. A study focuses on the consequence of cognitive impairment. D. People with cognitive impairment show cognitive decline. 第一节（共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Make Quick Decisions for Your Life We make decisions every day. Some can be very important while others are not serious in the long run. 36 Indecision often weighs us down, but there are some useful tips for making quick decisions more easily. 37 Sometimes the key to making a quick decision comes down to planning ahead of time for just such an occasion. We all know we’re going to come to an important decision-making point sooner or later, so having a plan already in hand can put our mind at ease when that time comes. Overcome fear. Often, one thing that keeps us from making decisions is fear. It may seem difficult to overcome the fear of making the wrong choice. 38 The vast majority of wrong decisions can be corrected, while delaying decisions can often lead to more problems. Write down all the advantages and disadvantages of your decision. Even if you don’t have all the information, writing down all the pros and cons (利弊) is a good starting point for figuring out what to do. In cases where there simply isn’t enough time to write things down, make a mental list in your mind. Thinking of the pros and cons can help you organize your thoughts. 39 Determine criteria. Remember that every decision you make should come with a certain list of criteria. 40 But once you know the requirements you’re looking for, making a decision will become easier. Look for the choice that satisfies the list you’ve made, and once that choice is found, you should move ahead with it. A. Have a plan. B. The list may be short or quite long. C. Communicate your decision with others. D. And this can always lead to a clear answer. E. So cut out any options that you know you will not choose. F. But many experts agree that we shouldn’t be afraid to make the wrong decision. G. When it comes to making decisions, choosing the right one can at times be stressful. 三、完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In an old city of Hungary, there used to be a boy who was very rich and clever but nothing could make him feel happy.

A. meaning B. wonder C. game D. reason 四、语法填空（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容或括号内所给词的恰当形式填空。 The Great Tit is one of the most familiar bird species in Europe and Asia — and one of the most interesting. The species shows a cognitive (认知的) capacity that is 56 (amaze) for a slight bird weighing only 18 grams. It produces false alarms to scare other birds off seed feeders and knocks on kitchen windows to get feeders 57 (refill). On cold winter days Great Tits drum on beehives, whereupon the bees will come 58 (walk) out, easy victim for the hungry birds. In combination with the bird’s broad food 59 (prefer), its cleverness has resulted in an unusual response to urbanization. By “unusual,” I mean that Great Tits not only get by but thrive. Urbanization, 60 involves land development, is an increasing problem for wild animals the world over. Stressors such as pollution, noise, artificial light and the lower-quality food found in cities 61 (consider) unhealthy for animals. In a study, I measured levels of CORT, a common stress hormone in birds, in 188 urban and rural Great Tits. Contrary to expectations, the urban birds had consistently lower levels of CORT than forest birds. This finding is even more remarkable when you consider that urban populations are 62 (dense) than forest ones, which should increase competition for territories and food and hence ramp up stress. Adaptability has also allowed Great Tits to colonize (占据) a habitat that is in obvious contrast to 63 urban one. Originating in the temperate deciduous (落叶的) forests, the little bird is now common in boreal coniferous forests (北方针叶林). The species lived and grew in large numbers in northern Sweden in the early 1900s during the construction of railroads. Bird feeding has a long tradition in this country, and the rail builders took a liking to the birds, nailing up their leftover pork fat at the entrances to the huts 64 they slept. As the railroads extended northward, the Great Tits followed. Nowadays they are common in this habitat, but when the cold winter takes hold, they leave the forests and emerge at bird feeders in nearby towns and farms. Cognition in the Paridae (山雀科) family is interesting and different species practice one of two entirely different wintering strategies. 65 their close relatives, which are specialists that store many thousands of food items in separate locations as winter food, the Great Tits, in contrast, do not store food at all. Curious and innovative, they instead obtain food in all possible and seemingly impossible ways, especially from humans. The more we learn about animal cognition, the better we will be able to answer questions on many questions involving the awareness of animals: Is it justifiable, for example, to keep cognitively advanced animals such as apes and dolphins caged? 五、书面表达（共两题，满分40分） 66．（满分15分）如今越来越多的年轻人希望通过拍摄短视频成为网络红人。上周五你校英语俱乐部就此现象展开讨论。请根据下表提供的信息，用英语写一篇短文，介绍大家对此现象的看法，并阐述自己的看法。 赞成的理由 1．展示自我； 2．找到自信；…… 反对的理由 1．沉迷网络； 2．让人觉得不通过努力就可以成功。 你的看法 注意：1．词数80左右；2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 拍短视频： make short-form mobile videos 网络红人： an internet celebrity 67．（满分25分）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。 In a small village, there lived a boy named Ali who faced unimaginable poverty. His family struggled to make ends meet, and the lack of basic necessities was a daily reality. Ali and his younger sister shared a single pair of shoes, a worn-out pair that was their most prized possession. They had developed a routine his sister would wear the shoes for her physical education class, then rush to their meeting spot to pass them to Ali so he could wear them to his class. On days when they both had class at the same time, only one of them could have the comfort of shoes, and they would often take turns. The school was strict, and several times they were punished for attending class barefoot. The siblings dreamed of owning a pair of shoes that didn’t have to be stylish, just something that would protect their feet. This simple wish sparked determination in Ali’s heart. He heard about a long-distance race in their town, where the third-place prize was a pair of shoes. He set his eyes on this goal, aiming not to be the best but to secure those shoes that were so essential to his and his sister’s happiness. Race day arrived, bringing both excitement and anxiety. As soon as the whistle blew, Ali faced challenges; he was knocked down multiple times but refused to give up. His focus never wavered — he kept imagining those shoes, a beacon of hope pushing him onward. The race tested his limits, each breath a mixture of pain and willpower. But he couldn’t afford to stop; too much was riding on his persistence. 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． Paragraph 1: He passed one person after another, eventually he got first place. Paragraph 2: He felt greatly disappointed because he didn’t get the shoes of his dream. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 《来宾一中2027届高三10月演练（英语）》参考答案 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B C A A C C C A C A 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 C B C A B C A C A A 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B C D D C B B D A C 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 B C A C A G A F D B 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 B A C D C B A A D C 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 C B D D B 1．【原文】M: Donna, have you booked the flight to London for me?

If you do, how many days will it last? W: Yes, we do. Four days and three nights. It’s available every Monday and Wednesday. M: Please help me register two people for the tour for this Wednesday.

W: Aren’t there lots of spiders too? M: Yes. And they like to make their webs everywhere, so you always need to check inside your shoes.

I’m getting too old to be a teacher. We both are. M: You’re kidding. I’m 46. You’re only 36. You’re almost a child. W: Haha. If only. I’ve had such a tiring day. I don’t feel like I have the energy anymore. M: You ought to read the story I’ve just read about a man who is still teaching at the age of 92. W: What? No way.

Unlike 66．范文： Nowadays, more and more youngsters hope to become an Internet celebrity by making short-form mobile videos. Last Friday our English club had a debate on the topic. Some students in favour of the idea thought youngsters could show their talents by making the videos. Besides, they believed it could help them gain more confidence. On the contrary, others argued that it might lead the youth to be addicted to the Internet. What’s worse, some young people might feel that success could come from luck but not hard work. Personally, I’m in favour of the first view. As long as we use the Internet properly, its advantages outweigh its disadvantages. 67. One possible version: Paragraph 1: He passed one person after another, eventually he got first place. Officials draped a medal around his neck and handed him a trophy — the first-place prize. But as Ali stared at the gleaming award, a cold dread washed over him. The shoes he had run for were for third place. In his relentless drive to win, he had outpaced his own goal. The cheers around him faded into a distant hum as he clutched the trophy, its weight feeling like a cruel joke. He had run too well, and had seemingly lost the very thing he needed most. Paragraph 2: He felt greatly disappointed because he didn’t get the shoes of his dream. Tears of frustration welled in his eyes as he walked away from the celebration. Just as despair threatened to consume him, the race director, who had observed Ali’s extraordinary effort and his worn-out feet, approached. “Son,” the man said gently, “I’ve never seen such determination for a pair of shoes.” Moved by Ali’s story, the director spoke to the sponsors.
