But everything changed as I grew up. News reports about air disasters on TV filled me with fear. I decided I would never set foot on an aircraft again. For years, I kept that promise. My husband, Al, and I traveled everywhere by car. I convinced myself we weren’t missing out. But deep down, I knew I was just hiding my fear. Then, our fortieth wedding anniversary approached. My husband had one lifelong dream: to see Alaska. It had been on his bucket list for a long time. There was no way to get there except by plane. Seeing his excitement, I felt terrible. I couldn’t crush his dream just because of my fear. After weeks of inner struggle, I booked the trip. But as the departure date neared, panic followed me day and night. I was suffering behind the smile I showed him. We were originally set to leave in June, but I came down with flu, so we canceled our plans. I was secretly relieved. When I fully recovered, Al brought it up again. This time, I had no excuses left. I watched videos on overcoming fears and practiced deep breathing every day. I walked into the airport with a racing heart. As the plane moved down the runway, I breathed deeply. As it lifted higher, I kept breathing. Before long, we were above the clouds, and I realized I was okay. We spent twelve wonderful days in Alaska. I stood at the base of a glacier(冰川) and watched whales swim by. But the most beautiful sight was the smile on Al’s face — a smile I hadn’t seen in years. Looking back at our photos, I don’t just see mountains and ice. I see the moment I climbed my own mountain of fear. I pushed through with courage and effort, and I flew. I finally made it. 24. Why did the author avoid flying for years? A. She preferred traveling by car. B. She experienced panic during past flights. C. She was deeply shaken by air accidents. D. She wanted to save money for an anniversary. 25. What does the underlined word “crush” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Judge. B. Follow. C. Ruin. D. Question. 26. How did the author deal with her emotion before the flight? A. By seeking help from her husband. B. By focusing on Alaska’s beautiful scenery. C. By asking experts for advice continuously. D. By taking active steps to mentally prepare. 27. What does the author’s experience show? A. Fear disappears with age. B. Courage counts in overcoming fear. C. Love breaks down misunderstanding. D. Nature offers life lessons. C Deep underground, a researcher’s voice breaks thousands of years of silence. As he sings, the cave answers back with a low, strange echo(回音). Then he follows the sound, until his headlamp falls upon ancient paintings. This experiment, performed decades ago, led to a remarkable discovery: Prehistoric rock art was meant to be heard as well as seen. The first to explore this was French musicologist Reznikoff. Counting the seconds between echoes, he found a link between rock art placement and acoustic(声音的) phenomena. His methods of talking to the walls lacked precision, however, and archaeologists largely ignored his conclusions. But his ideas survived on the edges of academia, where the emerging field of archaeoacoustics was struggling for recognition. Later, Rupert Till adopted a measurement called impulse response, which qualifies how sound waves move through a space when a short, sharp sound is played to give a so-called acoustic fingerprint. After hundreds of samples inside caves, both next to rock art and where there was no rock art, Till’s team proved a statistical relationship between the likelihood of there being a piece of rock art and an “unusual” acoustic phenomenon that was associated with it. In 2018, Díaz-Andreu, a Spanish archaeologist, launched the Artsoundscapes project, introducing cutting-edge tools to systematically measure acoustic phenomena at painted sites worldwide. The project leaves little doubt that prehistoric artists deliberately painted in places where echoes and sound transmission created other-worldly acoustic effects. By studying the unusual soundscapes, researchers reconstruct the ways in which these ancient, multisensory illustrations increased the power of prehistoric traditions, storytelling and musical performance — and, perhaps, even changed listeners’ states of consciousness. More broadly, these findings underline the importance of integrating sound into archaeology and archaeoacoustics is finally gaining mainstream acceptance. “I’m arguing for the preservation of the sound, because there are examples where they’ve built a visitor center or restrooms near rock art and they’re unintentionally ruining the acoustics,” Díaz-Andreu says. “I’m trying to spread the word, to preserve the soundscapes.” 28. Why did the researcher sing in the cave? A. To detect hidden cave art. B. To explore the lost cave. C. To break the long silence. D. To answer an unusual echo. 29. How did many archaeologists view Reznikoff’s study? A. They praised its creativity. B. They improved his methods. C. They examined it as evidence. D. They dismissed it as inaccurate. 30. What can we learn about Till’s method? A. He tested longer echoes. B. He employed statistical proof. C. He centered on painted caves. D. He took various measurements. 31. What would Díaz-Andreu probably advocate? A. Recreating the rock art in the museum. B. Separating sound from rock art studies. C. Removing visitor centers from painted caves. D. Using music to influence listeners’ perceptions. D The evolutionary path that led to the rise of modern humans is full of twists and turns, and the latest surprise is that our species likely evolved from two ancestral populations. Scientists have long thought that modern humans emerged from a single hominin(古人类) population in Africa between 300,000 and 200,000 years ago. However, a new study led by Richard Durbin, a geneticist at the University of Cambridge revealed that two groups of hominins split apart around 1.5 million years ago, only to reunite about 1.2 million years later, initiating a genetic mixing event that resulted in the birth of modern humanity. Instead of relying on ancient remains, researchers made use of modern human DNA from the 1,000 Genomes Project. By adding that dataset to a computational algorithm(算法), they produced a structured model that displayed two ancestral populations breaking apart and getting back together in ancient times. “The fact that we can reconstruct events from hundreds of thousands or millions of years ago just by looking at DNA today is astonishing,” said Durbin. The model shows in the years after the split, one of the two groups contracted temporarily. “Immediately after the two ancestral populations split, we see a severe bottleneck in one of them — suggesting it declined to a very small size before slowly growing over a period of one million years,” Durbin said. “This population would later contribute about 80% of the genetic material of modern humans. The second group, meanwhile, contributed around 20% of the genes, many of which are located far away from the functional regions of the genome. As for the identity of these ancestral populations, an element of mystery still remains. The researchers point to Homo erectus and Homo heidelbergensis as possible candidates, but further research is needed. Still, the genetic exchange shaping the modern human genome demonstrates that human evolution has involved splits and reunions. And that’s probably not limited to humans. 32. What is the highlight of the new study? A. It rewrites human origin. B. It compares two populations. C. It maps the human genome. D. It confirms evolution timeline. 33. Which best describes the method of the study? A. Practice-focused. B. Culture-based. C. Theory-guided. D. Data-driven. 34. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. Species evolve in a clear and straight line. B. Genetic exchange may exist in other species. C. The status of the two groups has been identified. D. The two populations contributed equally in genes. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. Our Closest Ancient Cousins. B. An Ancestral Get-Together. C. The Art of Encoding Human DNA. D. The Out-of-Africa Human Journey. 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。 In the fast-paced world of 2026, many people find themselves feeling stressed, tired, or disconnected from their own well-being. The good news is that small, science-backed changes to your daily routine can make a big difference in how you feel. 36 These simple daily practices don’t require much time or money, but they can help boost your mood and improve your overall quality of life. One of the most effective ways to feel better is to prioritize daily movement. It’s not about doing intense workouts, but about staying active in a way that works for you. 37 Simply walking, stretching, or dancing to your favorite music can release endorphins(内啡肽), which help reduce stress and lift your mood. 38 The key practice is getting enough quality sleep. Many people underestimate the importance of sleep, but it’s essential for both physical and mental health. Avoiding screens an hour before bed and creating a calm bedtime routine can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly. Connecting with others is crucial for emotional well-being as well. 39 In an era of constant digital communication, face-to-face interactions can feel rare, but they’re vital for building meaningful relationships. Spending time with others can reduce feelings of loneliness and increase feelings of happiness. Finally, don’t forget to take time for yourself. In a world that often values busyness, it’s important to carve out moments of relaxation. This could be reading a book or practicing meditation and enjoying the present moment. 40 A. You don’t have to push yourself too hard. B. Taking deep breaths can help calm your mind. C. Beyond physical activity, good mental rest also matters. D. Spending time in nature is also a great way to reduce stress. E. They can bring great benefits to your mental and physical health. F. Yet nothing can compare with the comfort of in-person connections. G. Taking care of your own needs isn’t selfish-it’s essential for well-being. 第三部分 语言运用(共二节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) Mom sent me to the store to buy dinner with her card.

Making the school team was my big dream for Grade 10 — the result of every early practice and every tired morning. But there I sat. With three minutes left and a twenty-point lead, Coach Thompson still did not look at the bench. I looked down at my new No. 12 shirt. It was still clean and dry. My shoes were almost new. The crowd sounded far away, like noise behind a wall. On the court, the first five players moved together well. Jake made another three-point shot, and the stands got louder. While my teammates smiled, I thought about last Tuesday’s practice: the missed easy shot and the pass that hit the floor. I knew I was not as good a shooter as Jake, but I could pass and I could guard. I had spent months learning my steps near the basket. But Coach trusted the players who took the lead, and I felt invisible. When the game ended, I forced a smile and clapped with the team. No one saw that I never touched the ball. The locker room was full of happy noise. Teammates threw water into the air and laughed loudly. I quietly put my towel and belongings into my bag, hoping no one would see me leave. Just then, Coach Thompson walked over with the game ball, dirty and wet with sweat. He gave it to Jake, who had scored thirty points. Jake held the ball high and smiled for the cameras. I turned away and bit my lip. “Hey, wait,” a voice called. It was Jake. He threw the ball to me. “Take this to the room where we keep the balls, will you?” 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。 I held the ball and felt its warmth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Coach looked at me and said, “You’ll start against Lincoln High.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026-2027学年江苏苏州上学期期中自编模拟卷 高三英语 (考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分) 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 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7.5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.

Thank you for coming to January’s Town Hall meeting. Before we begin, I’d like to share some important information about the first Tourism Festival of our town. Tourists will visit us in July, looking for a welcoming, clean, and well-cared-for town. Therefore, it’s time to pull together for a good spring clean! The town council has replaced all bins with smart garbage sorting and recycling stations, so please familiarize local residents with how to use them. Additionally, we need volunteers for regular litter checks to keep the streets rubbish-free. Over the next few months, the council will also hold events to clean up rivers and parks, repaint signs, clean writing off walls, and plant flowers. It will be a great chance to bring new life to our communities. The town website will update the information regularly. Every small effort helps — let’s show everyone what a wonderful town we have! Now, moving on to tonight’s meeting plans… 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 Journal of Cultural Heritage, a journal of science and technology, combines diverse academic disciplines for studying problems about the awareness and conservation of cultural heritage in a wide range.

But everything changed as I grew up. News reports about air disasters on TV filled me with fear. I decided I would never set foot on an aircraft again. For years, I kept that promise. My husband, Al, and I traveled everywhere by car. I convinced myself we weren’t missing out. But deep down, I knew I was just hiding my fear. Then, our fortieth wedding anniversary approached. My husband had one lifelong dream: to see Alaska. It had been on his bucket list for a long time. There was no way to get there except by plane. Seeing his excitement, I felt terrible. I couldn’t crush his dream just because of my fear. After weeks of inner struggle, I booked the trip. But as the departure date neared, panic followed me day and night. I was suffering behind the smile I showed him. We were originally set to leave in June, but I came down with flu, so we canceled our plans. I was secretly relieved. When I fully recovered, Al brought it up again. This time, I had no excuses left. I watched videos on overcoming fears and practiced deep breathing every day. I walked into the airport with a racing heart. As the plane moved down the runway, I breathed deeply. As it lifted higher, I kept breathing. Before long, we were above the clouds, and I realized I was okay. We spent twelve wonderful days in Alaska. I stood at the base of a glacier(冰川) and watched whales swim by. But the most beautiful sight was the smile on Al’s face — a smile I hadn’t seen in years. Looking back at our photos, I don’t just see mountains and ice. I see the moment I climbed my own mountain of fear. I pushed through with courage and effort, and I flew. I finally made it. 24. Why did the author avoid flying for years? A. She preferred traveling by car. B. She experienced panic during past flights. C. She was deeply shaken by air accidents. D. She wanted to save money for an anniversary. 25. What does the underlined word “crush” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Judge. B. Follow. C. Ruin. D. Question. 26. How did the author deal with her emotion before the flight? A. By seeking help from her husband. B. By focusing on Alaska’s beautiful scenery. C. By asking experts for advice continuously. D. By taking active steps to mentally prepare. 27. What does the author’s experience show? A. Fear disappears with age. B. Courage counts in overcoming fear. C. Love breaks down misunderstanding. D. Nature offers life lessons. 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. D 27. B 【语篇导读】本文主要讲述作者因空难报道多年不敢坐飞机，为圆丈夫看阿拉斯加的梦想，她主动克服恐惧乘机出行，最终成功战胜了内心的恐惧。 24. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“News reports about air disasters on TV filled me with fear.(电视上关于空难的新闻让我充满恐惧)”可知，作者多年来避免乘坐飞机是因为被空难事故深深吓到。 25. 词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“My husband had one lifelong dream: to see Alaska. It had been on his bucket list for a long time. There was no way to get there except by plane. Seeing his excitement, I felt terrible. I couldn’t crush his dream just because of my fear.(我丈夫有一个终身的梦想：去阿拉斯加。这早就列在他的人生愿望清单上了，但前往那里只能靠飞机。看到他如此兴奋，我感到非常难过。我不能因为自己的恐惧而crush他的梦想)”可知，去阿拉斯加是丈夫一生的梦想，作者觉得不能因为自己的恐惧而“破坏/粉碎”他的梦想。画线词“crush”在此处意为“破坏，毁灭”，与“Ruin”意思相近。 26. 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I watched videos on overcoming fears and practiced deep breathing every day.(我观看了关于克服恐惧的视频，并每天练习深呼吸)”可知，作者在飞行前通过观看视频和深呼吸等积极的措施来进行心理准备，以应对自己的恐惧情绪。 27. 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“I see the moment I climbed my own mountain of fear. I pushed through with courage and effort, and I flew.(我看到了我翻越自己恐惧之山的时刻。我凭借勇气和努力坚持了下来，我飞翔了)”可知，作者的亲身经历表明，勇气在克服恐惧的过程中至关重要。 C Deep underground, a researcher’s voice breaks thousands of years of silence. As he sings, the cave answers back with a low, strange echo(回音). Then he follows the sound, until his headlamp falls upon ancient paintings. This experiment, performed decades ago, led to a remarkable discovery: Prehistoric rock art was meant to be heard as well as seen. The first to explore this was French musicologist Reznikoff. Counting the seconds between echoes, he found a link between rock art placement and acoustic(声音的) phenomena. His methods of talking to the walls lacked precision, however, and archaeologists largely ignored his conclusions. But his ideas survived on the edges of academia, where the emerging field of archaeoacoustics was struggling for recognition. Later, Rupert Till adopted a measurement called impulse response, which qualifies how sound waves move through a space when a short, sharp sound is played to give a so-called acoustic fingerprint. After hundreds of samples inside caves, both next to rock art and where there was no rock art, Till’s team proved a statistical relationship between the likelihood of there being a piece of rock art and an “unusual” acoustic phenomenon that was associated with it. In 2018, Díaz-Andreu, a Spanish archaeologist, launched the Artsoundscapes project, introducing cutting-edge tools to systematically measure acoustic phenomena at painted sites worldwide. The project leaves little doubt that prehistoric artists deliberately painted in places where echoes and sound transmission created other-worldly acoustic effects. By studying the unusual soundscapes, researchers reconstruct the ways in which these ancient, multisensory illustrations increased the power of prehistoric traditions, storytelling and musical performance — and, perhaps, even changed listeners’ states of consciousness. More broadly, these findings underline the importance of integrating sound into archaeology and archaeoacoustics is finally gaining mainstream acceptance. “I’m arguing for the preservation of the sound, because there are examples where they’ve built a visitor center or restrooms near rock art and they’re unintentionally ruining the acoustics,” Díaz-Andreu says. “I’m trying to spread the word, to preserve the soundscapes.” 28. Why did the researcher sing in the cave? A. To detect hidden cave art. B. To explore the lost cave. C. To break the long silence. D. To answer an unusual echo. 29. How did many archaeologists view Reznikoff’s study? A. They praised its creativity. B. They improved his methods. C. They examined it as evidence. D. They dismissed it as inaccurate. 30. What can we learn about Till’s method? A. He tested longer echoes. B. He employed statistical proof. C. He centered on painted caves. D. He took various measurements. 31. What would Díaz-Andreu probably advocate? A. Recreating the rock art in the museum. B. Separating sound from rock art studies. C. Removing visitor centers from painted caves. D. Using music to influence listeners’ perceptions. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. B 31. C 【语篇导读】文章主要介绍了对史前岩画声学现象的研究，从早期探索到现代科技验证，表明岩画兼具视觉与听觉效果，并呼吁保护古代声景。 28. 细节理解题。​根据第一段中“As he sings, the cave answers back with a low, strange echo (回音). Then he follows the sound, until his headlamp falls upon ancient paintings.(当他唱歌时，洞穴以低沉而奇怪的回音回应。然后他顺着声音，直到他的头灯照到古代绘画上)”可知，研究人员在洞穴里唱歌是为了通过回声的引导去发现隐藏的岩画。 29. 细节理解题。​根据第二段中“His methods of talking to the walls lacked precision, however, and archaeologists largely ignored his conclusions.(然而，他“与墙对话”的方法缺乏精确性，考古学家们基本上忽视了他的结论)”可知，许多考古学家认为Reznikoff的研究不够精确，因而忽视了他的结论。 30. 推理判断题。​根据第三段中“After hundreds of samples inside caves, both next to rock art and where there was no rock art, Till’s team proved a statistical relationship between the likelihood of there being a piece of rock art and an “unusual” acoustic phenomenon that was associated with it. (在洞穴内采集了数百个样本，这些样本有的取自岩画旁边，有的取自没有岩画的地方。之后，Till的团队证明了存在一块岩画的可能性与一种与之相关的“不寻常”声学现象之间存在统计关系)”可知，Till的方法采用了统计证明。 31. 推理判断题。​根据最后一段中““I’m arguing for the preservation of the sound, because there are examples where they’ve built a visitor center or restrooms near rock art and they’re unintentionally ruining the acoustics,” Díaz-Andreu says. “I’m trying to spread the word, to preserve the soundscapes.”(“我主张保护这种声音，因为有些例子表明，人们在岩画附近建了游客中心或洗手间，无意中破坏了声学效果，”Díaz-Andreu说，“我正努力传播这一信息，以保护这些声景。”)可推知，他可能会主张将游客中心等设施从有岩画的洞穴附近移除，以保护声景。 D The evolutionary path that led to the rise of modern humans is full of twists and turns, and the latest surprise is that our species likely evolved from two ancestral populations. Scientists have long thought that modern humans emerged from a single hominin(古人类) population in Africa between 300,000 and 200,000 years ago. However, a new study led by Richard Durbin, a geneticist at the University of Cambridge revealed that two groups of hominins split apart around 1.5 million years ago, only to reunite about 1.2 million years later, initiating a genetic mixing event that resulted in the birth of modern humanity. Instead of relying on ancient remains, researchers made use of modern human DNA from the 1,000 Genomes Project. By adding that dataset to a computational algorithm(算法), they produced a structured model that displayed two ancestral populations breaking apart and getting back together in ancient times. “The fact that we can reconstruct events from hundreds of thousands or millions of years ago just by looking at DNA today is astonishing,” said Durbin. The model shows in the years after the split, one of the two groups contracted temporarily. “Immediately after the two ancestral populations split, we see a severe bottleneck in one of them — suggesting it declined to a very small size before slowly growing over a period of one million years,” Durbin said. “This population would later contribute about 80% of the genetic material of modern humans. The second group, meanwhile, contributed around 20% of the genes, many of which are located far away from the functional regions of the genome. As for the identity of these ancestral populations, an element of mystery still remains. The researchers point to Homo erectus and Homo heidelbergensis as possible candidates, but further research is needed. Still, the genetic exchange shaping the modern human genome demonstrates that human evolution has involved splits and reunions. And that’s probably not limited to humans. 32. What is the highlight of the new study? A. It rewrites human origin. B. It compares two populations. C. It maps the human genome. D. It confirms evolution timeline. 33. Which best describes the method of the study? A. Practice-focused. B. Culture-based. C. Theory-guided. D. Data-driven. 34. What can be inferred from the last two paragraphs? A. Species evolve in a clear and straight line. B. Genetic exchange may exist in other species. C. The status of the two groups has been identified. D. The two populations contributed equally in genes. 35. What is the best title of the text? A. Our Closest Ancient Cousins. B. An Ancestral Get-Together. C. The Art of Encoding Human DNA. D. The Out-of-Africa Human Journey. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. B 35. B 【语篇导读】主要介绍一项新研究表明现代人类源自两支古人类族群分化又融合的演化过程，颠覆了单一族群起源的旧观点。 32. 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Scientists have long thought that modern humans emerged from a single hominin(古人类) population in Africa between 300,000 and 200,000 years ago. However, a new study led by Richard Durbin, a geneticist at the University of Cambridge revealed that two groups of hominins split apart around 1.5 million years ago, only to reunite about 1.2 million years later, initiating a genetic mixing event that resulted in the birth of modern humanity. (长期以来，科学家一直认为，现代人类起源于三十万至二十万年前非洲的单一古人类种群。然而，剑桥大学遗传学家理查德・德宾主导的一项新研究表明，两类古人类种群约在150万年前分化，又在120万年后重新融合，由此引发的基因交融事件，最终孕育出了现代人类。)”可知，新研究打破人类单一起源的传统观点，重新阐释人类起源。 33. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Instead of relying on ancient remains, researchers made use of modern human DNA from the 1,000 Genomes Project. By adding that dataset to a computational algorithm(算法), they produced a structured model that displayed two ancestral populations breaking apart and getting back together in ancient times.( 研究人员并未依赖古生物遗骸，而是利用了千人基因组计划中的现代人类DNA。通过将该数据集代入运算算法，他们构建出结构化模型，还原了远古时期两个远古族群分化又融合的过程。)”可知，该研究依托数据与算法开展，是以数据为支撑的研究方式。 34. 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Still, the genetic exchange shaping the modern human genome demonstrates that human evolution has involved splits and reunions. And that’s probably not limited to humans.( 尽管如此，这场塑造了现代人类基因组的基因交流表明，人类进化历程中一直存在种群的分化与融合，且这种现象可能并非人类独有。)”可知，人类的族群分化融合与基因交流现象，大概率也存在于其他物种当中。 35. 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“However, a new study led by Richard Durbin, a geneticist at the University of Cambridge revealed that two groups of hominins split apart around 1.5 million years ago, only to reunite about 1.2 million years later, initiating a genetic mixing event that resulted in the birth of modern humanity. (然而，剑桥大学遗传学家理查德・德宾主导的一项新研究表明，两类古人类种群约在150万年前分化，又在120万年后重新融合，由此引发的基因交融事件，最终孕育出了现代人类。)”可知，文章围绕远古两类古人类族群分裂、重逢融合并孕育现代人类展开，核心是远古祖先族群的汇合交融，因此“An Ancestral Get-Together(远古族群的交融)”最贴合全文主旨，适合作为最佳标题。 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。 In the fast-paced world of 2026, many people find themselves feeling stressed, tired, or disconnected from their own well-being. The good news is that small, science-backed changes to your daily routine can make a big difference in how you feel. 36 These simple daily practices don’t require much time or money, but they can help boost your mood and improve your overall quality of life. One of the most effective ways to feel better is to prioritize daily movement. It’s not about doing intense workouts, but about staying active in a way that works for you. 37 Simply walking, stretching, or dancing to your favorite music can release endorphins(内啡肽), which help reduce stress and lift your mood. 38 The key practice is getting enough quality sleep. Many people underestimate the importance of sleep, but it’s essential for both physical and mental health. Avoiding screens an hour before bed and creating a calm bedtime routine can help you fall asleep faster and sleep more soundly. Connecting with others is crucial for emotional well-being as well. 39 In an era of constant digital communication, face-to-face interactions can feel rare, but they’re vital for building meaningful relationships. Spending time with others can reduce feelings of loneliness and increase feelings of happiness. Finally, don’t forget to take time for yourself. In a world that often values busyness, it’s important to carve out moments of relaxation. This could be reading a book or practicing meditation and enjoying the present moment. 40 A. You don’t have to push yourself too hard. B. Taking deep breaths can help calm your mind. C. Beyond physical activity, good mental rest also matters. D. Spending time in nature is also a great way to reduce stress. E. They can bring great benefits to your mental and physical health. F. Yet nothing can compare with the comfort of in-person connections. G. Taking care of your own needs isn’t selfish-it’s essential for well-being. 【答案】36. E 37. A 38. C 39. F 40. G 【语篇导读】文章主要介绍了日常运动、优质睡眠、面对面社交和自我关怀四种科学小习惯，能有效提升身心健康与生活质量。 36. 前文“The good news is that small, science-backed changes to your daily routine can make a big difference in how you feel.( 但好消息是，对日常生活习惯进行一些基于科学的小改变，就能极大地改善你的感受)”指出“科学支持的日常小改变能显著改善感受”，后文“These simple daily practices don’t require much time or money, but they can help boost your mood and improve your overall quality of life.( 这些简单的日常行为不需要太多时间或金钱，但却能帮助提升你的情绪，改善你的整体生活质量)”具体说明“这些简单做法能提升情绪、改善生活质量”。E选项“They can bring great benefits to your mental and physical health.( 它们对您的身心健康都有极大的益处)”中的They精准指代前文的small, science-backed changes，承接上文引出这些改变带来的核心益处，自然过渡到下文对具体做法的介绍。 37. 前文“One of the most effective ways to feel better is to prioritize daily movement. It’s not about doing intense workouts, but about staying active in a way that works for you.( 让自己每天保持活跃是感觉更好的最有效方式之一。这并非指进行高强度的锻炼，而是指以适合自己的方式保持活跃)”强调运动“不是高强度锻炼，而是适合自己的方式”，后文“Simply walking, stretching, or dancing to your favorite music can release endorphins (内啡肽), which help reduce stress and lift your mood.( 仅仅是散步、伸展或者随着你最喜欢的音乐跳舞就能释放内啡肽，这有助于减轻压力并提升心情)”列举了走路、拉伸、跳舞等简单运动形式。A选项“You don’t have to push yourself too hard.( 你不必过于勉强自己)”直接呼应“无需高强度”的核心观点，与后文“简单运动即可释放内啡肽”形成完美的逻辑递进，明确了日常运动的轻松原则。 38. 上一段完整论述了“身体运动”的重要性，本段核心话题“The key practice is getting enough quality sleep.( 关键的实践是保证充足的高质量睡眠)”转为“高质量睡眠”(精神休息的核心)。C选项“Beyond physical activity, good mental rest also matters.( 除了体育锻炼之外，良好的精神休息也很重要)”作为段落首句，起到了绝佳的承上启下作用，用Beyond physical activity自然结束上一话题，用good mental rest also matters开启本段关于睡眠的讨论。 39. 前文“Connecting with others is crucial for emotional well-being as well.( 与他人建立联系对于情感健康也至关重要)”提出“人际连接对情绪健康至关重要”，后文“In an era of constant digital communication, face-to-face interactions can feel rare, but they’re vital for building meaningful relationships.( 在这个不断进行数字化交流的时代，面对面的交流可能显得较为罕见，但它们对于建立有意义的关系至关重要)”转折指出“数字时代面对面交流稀缺但意义重大”。F选项“Yet nothing can compare with the comfort of in-person connections.( 但没有什么能比得上面对面交流所带来的舒适感)”中的Yet形成转折，将话题从泛泛的“人际连接”聚焦到“面对面连接”的独特价值，与后文face-to-face interactions形成精准呼应。 40. 本段核心是“Finally, don’t forget to take time for yourself.( 最后，别忘了给自己留出一些时间)”以及前文“This could be reading a book or practicing meditation and enjoying the present moment.( 这可以是阅读一本书、练习冥想以及享受当下的美好时光)”列举了读书、冥想等具体方式。G选项“Taking care of your own needs isn’t selfish-it’s essential for well-being.( 关心自己的需求并非自私之举——这是保持健康所必需的)”作为全文最后一句，升华了“自我关怀”的主题，纠正了“自我关怀是自私”的常见误解，强调其对幸福的必要性，收束全文有力且温暖。 第三部分 语言运用(共二节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分) Mom sent me to the store to buy dinner with her card. Money was tight, so I’d only grabbed necessities to stay on 41 . At checkout, the total came to just over $13, a sum that was 42 manageable. But Mom’s card 43 “invalid(无效的) card” when I tried to pay with it. I tried again, but it failed again. I 44 the two elderly women behind me to be patient, apologizing as I pulled out my own card. I tried the password — accidentally using Mom’s — before keying in the correct one, only for my card to 45 . Tears hurt my eyes; we had no food at home, and I felt hopeless, 46 by disappointment. The cashier offered to hold the 47 , while the women comforted me: “Take your time.” I rushed out to call Mom. She said the card was locked because of multiple failed autopay attempts but she was able to 48 it right away. Back in the store, I got in line behind the women, 49 again for my problem earlier. “Don’t worry, sweetie — we got it,” the first woman said firmly. Confused, I realized they’d 50 my groceries — nothing expected in return, just pure kindness. “Hard times hit everyone,” the second added gently. 51 by their warmth, I cried, thanking them as I grabbed my groceries. These strangers I’d just 52 became an unexpected lifeline. That $13 53 revealed humanity’s warmth. They simply noticed my 54 and lent a hand, lifting my spirits, and rebuilding my faith. I’m convinced true kindness lies in seeing the need and taking action. Those 55 memories inspire me to pay it forward — small gestures can brighten someone’s day. 41.

Making the school team was my big dream for Grade 10 — the result of every early practice and every tired morning. But there I sat. With three minutes left and a twenty-point lead, Coach Thompson still did not look at the bench. I looked down at my new No. 12 shirt. It was still clean and dry. My shoes were almost new. The crowd sounded far away, like noise behind a wall. On the court, the first five players moved together well. Jake made another three-point shot, and the stands got louder. While my teammates smiled, I thought about last Tuesday’s practice: the missed easy shot and the pass that hit the floor. I knew I was not as good a shooter as Jake, but I could pass and I could guard. I had spent months learning my steps near the basket. But Coach trusted the players who took the lead, and I felt invisible. When the game ended, I forced a smile and clapped with the team. No one saw that I never touched the ball. The locker room was full of happy noise. Teammates threw water into the air and laughed loudly. I quietly put my towel and belongings into my bag, hoping no one would see me leave. Just then, Coach Thompson walked over with the game ball, dirty and wet with sweat. He gave it to Jake, who had scored thirty points. Jake held the ball high and smiled for the cameras. I turned away and bit my lip. “Hey, wait,” a voice called. It was Jake. He threw the ball to me. “Take this to the room where we keep the balls, will you?” 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。 I held the ball and felt its warmth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Coach looked at me and said, “You’ll start against Lincoln High.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【参考范文】 I held the ball and felt its warmth. Its worn leather had witnessed Jake’s glory, and my loneliness. Instead of heading to the equipment room, I walked back to the empty court, where under the dim lights I dribbled, pivoted and shot again and again. I stayed until my jersey was soaked and my arms ached. That night I decided to wait for no one's permission — to make myself impossible to ignore. Coach looked at me and said, “You’ll start against Lincoln High.” For a second I just turned it over in my hands; my heart pounded harder than it had after any buzzer-beater, and my “Yes, sir” came out a notch too loud. That afternoon I didn’t hang back — I called for the ball nervously and dove for loose balls; his eyes lingered on me a second longer than usual. I knew it was my one shot — not for fame, but to prove that the boy who carried the ball to the equipment room could also carry the team when Friday came. 【语篇导读】本文以比赛用球 为线索展开，讲述了十年级主人公一心想要在校篮球队站稳脚跟，却始终作为板凳球员无缘上场；赛后受托运送比赛用球时，他独自留在空旷球场加练并决心靠实力赢得认可，最终凭借训练中的积极表现获得教练赏识，得到对阵林肯高中首发机会的成长故事。 【详解】 1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者触摸篮球时的心理波动，以及他留在空球场反复运球投篮、暗自下定决心要让自己无法被忽视的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者获得首发通知后的激动反应，补充他训练时刻苦拼搏的状态，以及他珍视机会、想要为球队贡献力量的坚定信念。 2.续写线索：触球生感→折返空场→反复加练→暗下决心→获首发通知→回述当日训练→坚定信念 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①前往： head to/proceed to ②退缩：hang back/shrink back 情绪类 ①孤独：loneliness/desolation ②紧张地：nervously/tensely 【点睛】 【高分句型1】Instead of heading to the equipment room, I walked back to the empty court, where under the dim lights I dribbled, pivoted and shot again and again.(运用了where引导的非限制性定语从句) 【高分句型2】I stayed until my jersey was soaked and my arms ached.(运用了until引导的时间状语从句) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Hey, jim, aren't you cooking dinner?
