【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道,讲述了2025年巴黎卢浮宫发生的一起精心策划的珠宝抢劫案。窃贼利用特殊工具破窗并破坏警报系统,盗走无价珠宝,目前警方正在全力追捕嫌疑人。
【1题详解】
句意:大量无价珠宝在一次精心策划的行动中被盗。
修饰可数名词复数jewels,表示“大量”,应用a number of,与复数谓语动词were对应。the number of表示“……的数量”,谓语动词应用单数;large amounts of修饰不可数名词;the amount of表示“……的数量”,均与语境不符。
【2题详解】
句意:这是该博物馆历史上最严重的一次损失。
结合语境,卢浮宫遭窃是历史上“最严重的”损失,应用形容词最高级most serious,空前有its,不加定冠词the,most serious符合。more serious比较级,the more serious特指比较级,the most serious最高级前the与空前its冲突,均不符合。
【3题详解】
句意:博物馆刚开门,所以游客很少。
前后为因果关系,因为刚开门,“所以”游客很少,应用so。but表转折,because表原因,although表让步,均不符合逻辑。
【4题详解】
句意:警方发现这起盗窃案比普通的抢劫案要复杂得多。
空后有more complicated,much可修饰比较级,表示“得多”,此处much more complicated表示“复杂得多”。very不能修饰比较级,less和more与原级搭配,均不符合。
【5题详解】
句意:他们使用特殊工具迅速打破玻璃。
use sth. to do sth.“用某物做某事”,应用不定式to break表示目的。for breaking、on breaking、break原形均不符合该结构。
【6题详解】
句意:虽然起初没有发现任何异常,但一名警卫很快发现了一些让他感到担忧的不寻常的事情。
修饰不定代词something,形容词应后置,即something unusual。unusual something语序错误,somethings unusual拼写错误,some things unusual语序及单复数均不符合。
【7题详解】
句意:他决定立刻检查展厅,发现它的警报系统没有发出声响。
空处修饰名词alarm system,表示“它的”,应用形容词性物主代词its。it’s是it is的缩写,their指代复数,they’re是they are的缩写,均不符合。
【8题详解】
句意:这套本应立刻启动的系统彻底失灵了。
表示“本应该做某事(但未做)”,应用should have done结构,此处指这套系统本应该立刻被激活,却完全失灵了。must have done表示对过去的肯定推测,would have done用于虚拟语气,might have done表示对过去的可能推测,均与语境不符。
【9题详解】
句意:当被问及这起事件时,博物馆馆长没有立刻答复相关问题。
reply to“回复”为固定搭配,应用介词to。for、with、on与reply搭配不当。
【10题详解】
句意:警方已经警告公众不要在网上购买贵重物品,因为被盗珠宝可能会出现在网络上。
warn sb. not to do sth.“警告某人不要做某事”,应用不定式to buy。buys、bought、buying均不能用于该结构。
【11题详解】
句意:调查人员发现窃贼避开使用主干道,而是选择其他路线来逃避警方的注意。
avoid doing sth.“避免做某事”,应用动名词using。use原形、to use不定式、used过去式均不能用于avoid后。

句意:调查人员发现窃贼避开使用主干道,而是选择其他路线来逃避警方的注意。
泛指“其他的”路线,应用other。others泛指其他人/物,another指“另一个”,后加名词单数,the other指“两者中的另一个”,均不符合。
【13题详解】
句意:他们确切地知道如何使安保系统失效。
修饰动词know,应用副词exactly“确切地”。exact形容词,exactness名词,exacting形容词,均不能修饰动词。
【14题详解】
句意:到目前为止,已有四名嫌疑人被捕,但丢失的珠宝一件也没有找到。
与前文“four suspects have been caught”形成对比,应用none表示“一个也没有”。all、both、some均与“仍未找到”的语境不符。
【15题详解】
句意:警方仍在这座城市里到处搜寻它们。
表示“到处”,应用everywhere。somewhere“某处”,anywhere常用于否定疑问句,nowhere“无处”,均不符合警方的搜寻状态。

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了一个穷人通过坚持完成搬砖任务获得尊重,最终获得成功的故事,强调了坚定做事的重要性。
【16题详解】
句意:你看起来很强壮,为什么不去工作呢?
根据后文“Why don’t you work?”可知,作者认为男子身体强壮,应该有能力工作,因此用strong表示“强壮的”,符合语境。young“年轻的”;smart“聪明的”;honest“诚实的”均不符合语境。
【17题详解】
句意:如果你能把一块砖放在胳膊下面,连续五个小时不停地绕着广场走,我就给你每小时一英镑。
根据后文“with the brick under his arm”可知,作者要求男子把砖块放在胳膊下面,因此用carry表示“携带”,符合语境。break“打破”;fix“修理”;hide“隐藏”均不符合语境。
【18题详解】
句意:我找到一块砖,在去处理自己的事情之前,让他开始绕着广场行走。
根据前文“I found a brick and started him on his walk”可知,作者先找到砖块并安排男子开始行走,然后自己去处理事情。before表示“在……之前”,符合语境。after“在……之后”;when“当……时”;as“当……时;随着”均不符合此处语境。
【19题详解】
句意:五个小时后,当我回来时,我看见他仍然胳膊下夹着砖块在行走。
根据前文“walk around the square for five hours without stopping”可知,男子需要连续五个小时绕广场行走,因此此处用walking表示“行走”,符合语境。crying“哭泣”;talking“交谈”;doing“做”均不符合语境。
【20题详解】
句意:他感谢我,并告诉我,有些人在知道他为什么这样做后,主动提出帮助他。
根据后文“they would give him work directly”可知,有些人愿意直接给他提供工作,因此此处用offered表示“主动提出;提供”,符合语境。continued“继续”;forgotten“忘记”;refused“拒绝”均不符合语境。
【21题详解】
句意:他说他们愿意直接给他提供工作,但他拒绝了。
根据前文“they would give him work directly, but”可知,前后构成转折关系,别人愿意直接给他工作,而他没有接受。refused表示“拒绝”,符合语境。accepted“接受”;ran“跑”;walked“走”均不符合语境。
【22题详解】
句意:离开之前,他问我是否可以把那块砖给他。
根据后文“I did.”以及“I still keep that brick”可知,男子希望保留作者给他的那块砖。brick表示“砖块”,符合语境。bread“面包”;pay“报酬”;job“工作”均不符合语境。
【23题详解】
句意:看到我不确定他是谁,他解释说自己就是当年那个抱砖块的人,现在已经有了自己的事业。
根据前文“Seeing I was not sure who he was”可知,作者没有认出男子,因此男子向作者说明自己的身份。explained表示“解释;说明”,符合语境。imagined“想象”;realized“意识到”;supposed“认为”均不符合语境。
【24题详解】
句意:你知道,我仍然保存着那块砖,并且一直认为它是我最重要的东西,因为它给我带来了好运和成功。
根据后文“because it has brought me luck and success”可知,男子认为这块砖对自己意义重大,因此用important表示“重要的”,符合语境。beautiful“美丽的”;expensive“昂贵的”;interesting“有趣的”均不符合语境。
【25题详解】
句意:事实上,使这个男人成功的并不是那块砖,而是他坚定地做好哪怕是一件非常小的事情的信念。
根据前文男子连续五个小时抱着砖块行走,并且拒绝别人直接提供工作的情节可知,他成功的关键在于认真对待并坚持做好每一件小事。even表示“甚至;即使”,此处强调事情虽小也要认真做好,符合语境。nearly“几乎”;so“如此;因此”;out“向外”均不符合语境。

When do you become an adult (成年人)? The answers are different from country to country. In modern China, adulthood for both boys and girls starts at the age of 18.

In many movies, there are sometimes characters who have chips(芯片) put in their heads. This might come true very soon.
Neuralink, US businessman Elon Musk’s company, has developed a chip that was implanted into the head of a pig. On Aug 28, Musk did a livestream on how it works by showing the signal transmission.
The chip is the size of a coin. It has over 3,000 electrodes(电极) that can monitor about 1000 neurons(神经元). So in the livestream while the pig was breathing, people could see its brain activity on a large screen. If this technology is used on humans, after the chip picks up signals in the brain, these signals will be sent to nearby computers or APPs and then be translated into actions, such as moving an arm or leg.
It’s not a dream for people to use a small chip to change their life with their minds. For now the goal is to use it to help disabled people. They could control artificial limbs(假肢) with their minds and move around more easily. People could even use the technology to play video games or drive cars.
However, there is still a long way to make these things happen. The chip can send signals from about 500 neurons in the pig’s brain. However, the human brain has 80 billion neurons. Also, it is not safe to implant the chip yet, it could harm the brain. Hackers(黑客) could also hack into the chip and control others’ thoughts and feelings. There is another problem, too. When humans are connected to computers, are they still humans?
33. What was Musk’s livestreaming about?
A. How the chip works in many movies.
B. How the chip in the pig’s head works.
C. How to implant a chip into a pig’s head.
D. How to use a chip to control a pig.
34. What is the right process of signal transmission according to Paragraph 3?
A. brain→chip→computer
B. brain→action→computer
C. chip→brain→action
D. chip→computer→brain
35. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the technology?
A. The ability that it has to control brain activity.
B. The effects that it will have on people’s life.
C. The problems that it might bring to humans.
D. The way that it works.
36. How does the writer feel about the development of the chip according to the last paragraph?
A. Hopeful. B. Excited. C. Pleased. D. Doubtful.
【答案】33. B 34. A 35. B 36. D
【解析】

Most of the world’s progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers (阻碍), reach new distances, and find a new path. They are the few brave enough to believe in the seemingly impossible and try their best to make it possible. Once they do this, they open the gates for others to follow.
A powerful example of this is Roger Bannister, who in 1954, broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds. Before Bannister succeeded, the thought was considered not only dangerous but impossible. But Bannister did not pay attention to it, he developed within himself a certainty that it was achievable, even though there was no evidence (证据) to suggest it. In fact, there was a lot of evidence to suggest it wasn’t achievable. But his belief to success allowed him to train for years to his end goal.
On 6 May, 1954, Bannister’s remarkable achievement created a new wisdom. Just 24 days later, the barrier was broken again and in the last 50 years, more than 1,000 other runners have achieved the feat (成就). It was not that these runners had improved physical (身体的) qualities from the runners who had tried and failed before them, but that they had improved psychological (心理的) qualities. They had proof (证明) of the possible.
Sometimes we do need to see it to believe it. But if we care about stories of problems and failures, it can be difficult to see beyond them. Those people who achieve extraordinary things do not accept the current standards, they break the barriers of “what is” and push beyond them to “what could be”. Through learning from those who break barriers, we too can make our own potentials come true - to be a powerful force for good.
37. What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 2?
A. Finding a new path. B. Being a pioneer.
C. The world’s progress. D. The 4-minute mile barrier.
38. What do we know about Roger Bannister?
A. He wanted others to follow him. B. He received support from his family.
C. He made a great achievement in running. D. He collected evidence to support himself.
39. Why are “other runners” mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To show the bravery of other runners. B. To show the importance of pioneers.
C. To show the power of following others. D. To show the importance of physical qualities.
40. What does the writer advise the readers to do in the last paragraph?
A. Forget the barriers. B. Learn from failures.
C. Achieve the potentials. D. Accept the current standards.
【答案】37. B 38. C 39. B 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文通过Roger Bannister打破“四分钟一英里”障碍的实例,阐述先驱者突破传统认知、开辟新路径的重要性。
【37题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第一段 “Most of the world’s progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers, reach new distances, and find a new path” 世界上大部分的进步都是由少数突破障碍、达到新距离、找到新道路的先驱者取得的;可知,“this”指代第一段提到的先驱者行为。故选B。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A powerful example of this is Roger Bannister, who in 1954, broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds.”可知,他在跑步方面取得了突破。故选C。
【39题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It was not that these runners had improved physical qualities from the runners who had tried and failed before them, …They had proof of the possible”可知,第三段提到其他跑者“证明可能”,旨在说明先驱者的突破为后人提供心理动力,凸显先驱者的重要性。故选B。
【40题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Through learning from those who break barriers, we too can make our own potentials come true - to be a powerful force for good.” 通过向那些打破障碍的人学习,我们也可以实现自己的潜力,成为一股强大的向善力量;可知,作者建议读者学习先驱者,充分发挥潜力。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇人物介绍类的短文。文章主要讲述了著名物理学家杨振宁的科学成就、科研历程以及他所体现的科学精神,旨在激励学生学习他的热情和态度。
【51题详解】
句意:毫无疑问,他是当今最重要的科学家之一。根据句意和首字母d可知,此处为There is no doubt that...是固定句型,意为“毫无疑问……”。
【52题详解】
句意:从很小的时候起,他就对科学表现出极大的兴趣,被认为非常有才华。根据“His most famous achievement, winning the Nobel Prize in 1957”和首字母t可知,他获得了诺贝尔奖,因此他被认为是有才华的,talented意为“有才华的”,是形容词作宾语补足语。
【53题详解】
句意:他最著名的成就——1957 年获得诺贝尔奖,是一个巨大的挑战,需要多年的努力工作。根据“that required years of hard work”和首字母c可知,需要多年的努力才获得,因此是一个巨大挑战,challenge意为“挑战”,有不定冠词a修饰,用单数名词。
【54题详解】
句意:然而,科学研究的道路从来不会一帆风顺——它充满了困难。根据“it is full of difficulties”和首字母s可知,这充满困难,因此不是很顺利,smoothly意为“顺利地”,修饰动词goes,用副词。
【55题详解】
句意:在他的职业生涯中,他与许多其他专家一起合作来解决这些问题。结合首字母e及语境“解决科学问题”,可知是与其他“专家”合作,expert意为“专家”,有many other修饰,需用复数形式。

第二节 完成句子(共7小题;每小题2分,满分14分)
根据所给的汉语内容,用英语完成下列句子。每空限填一词。
57. 筷子在中国的饮食文化中起着重要的作用。
Chopsticks ________ ________ ________ ________ in Chinese food culture.
【答案】 ①. play ②. an ③. important ④. role
【解析】
【详解】根据句意可知,此处表示“起着重要的作用”,用固定短语“play an important role”,且句子主语为复数名词“Chopsticks”,时态为一般现在时,谓语动词应用原形。故填play;an;important;role。
58. 我们应该保护动物,而不是忽视它们。否则,它们会灭绝。
We should protect animals ________ ________ ignoring them. Otherwise, they ________ ________ ________.
【答案】 ①. instead ②. of ③. will ④. die ⑤. out
【解析】
【详解】原句中“而不是”和“会灭绝”是关键词。instead of用来衔接前后两个对立的行为,表达“而不是”的含义,后面可直接接动名词ignoring。die out“灭绝”,otherwise引出结果,用一般将来时will die out。
59. 智能手机的发明给人们的日常生活带来了重大变化。
The invention of smartphones has ________ ________ ________ ________ people’s daily lives.
【答案】 ①. brought ②. big ③. changes ④. to
【解析】
【详解】根据汉语提示可知,空处所缺内容为“给……带来重大变化”,bring big changes to...是常用表达,意为“给……带来重大变化”。句子时态为现在完成时,has后接动词的过去分词形式,bring的过去分词是brought。故填brought;big;changes;to。
60. 这个机器人没有我希望的那么好。
This robot was ________ ________ ________ ________ I hoped.
【答案】 ①. not ②. as ③. good ④. as
【解析】
【详解】根据中英文对照可知,空处缺少“没有……一样好”的英文表达,not as+形容词+as…表示“没有……一样……”;good意为“好的”,形容词。故填not;as;good;as。
61. 我们可能永远不会知道那一夜发生了什么事。
We may never know what ________ ________ that night.
【答案】 ①. took ②. place
【解析】
【详解】原句中“发生”是关键词,表示“发生”的短语是take place;what引导的从句描述的是过去发生的事情,应用一般过去时,谓语动词应用过去式took。
62. 虽然我们在线上聊了几个月,但从未见过面。
Although we’ve chatted online for months, we’ve never met ________ ________.
【答案】 ①. in ②. person
【解析】
【详解】原句中“……面”是关键词。此处“从未见过面”也就是表示“从未亲自见面”,使用介词短语in person,表示“亲自”。
63. 我们检查了一下,发现一切正常。
We checked it up and found that ________ ________ all right.
【答案】 ①. everything ②. was
【解析】
【详解】原句中“一切正常”是关键词,“一切”对应的英文为everything,“正常”用be all right表示;根据“checked”和“found”可知句子描述的是过去发生的事情,时态为一般过去时,everything作主语,be动词用was。故填everything; was。

When do you become an adult (成年人)? The answers are different from country to country. In modern China, adulthood for both boys and girls starts at the age of 18. By the time most people reach 18, they finish high school and are ready for university (大学). So a person’s 18th birthday often means a celebration of both adulthood and the start of university life.
Did children in ancient (古代的) China become adults at 18? In fact, boys in ancient China become adults at 20 and girls at 15. And there was a ceremony (典礼) to celebrate this time. After the ceremony, a young person can be called an “adult”.
For girls, the ceremony is called Ji Li. “Ji” is a kind of hairpin (发夹). In ancient times, only girls from rich families can have this ceremony. It was simple and didn’t take much time. Before the ceremony, a girl would tie (系) her hair on the top of her head. At the ceremony, a woman in the family would put a hairpin on a girl’s hair. It meant she was now an adult. After the ceremony, she needed to learn a lot, like the right way to speak and dress.
For boys, the ceremony was called Guan Li. ▲ Before the ceremony, a boy’s family often chose a lucky day and invited (邀请) many guests. On that day, the boy needed to dress up. The father would wash hands and put three hats on the boy’s head, one by one. Then the boy would change (改变) into another set of clothes to go with the color of the hats. After these steps, the boy would become a “man”.
29. When does a person become an adult in ancient China?
A. At the age of 18 for both boys and girls. B. At the age of 18 for boys and 15 for girls.
C. At the age of 20 for boys and 18 for girls. D. At the age of 20 for boys and 15 for girls.
30. Which of the following can be put in ▲ ?
A. It is usually in May. B. “Guan” is a kind of hat.
C. After Guan Li, the boy will have a new name. D. It is the same as Ji Li.
31. What can we infer (推测) from the passage?
A. People see a boy’s Guan Li as an important celebration.
B. On a boy’s Guan Li, the mother will put three hats on his son’s head.
C. People expect (期待) boys to speak and dress in a right way after they grow up.
D. Girls do not have a ceremony to mark their adulthood.

In many movies, there are sometimes characters who have chips(芯片) put in their heads. This might come true very soon.
Neuralink, US businessman Elon Musk’s company, has developed a chip that was implanted into the head of a pig. On Aug 28, Musk did a livestream on how it works by showing the signal transmission.
The chip is the size of a coin. It has over 3,000 electrodes(电极) that can monitor about 1000 neurons(神经元). So in the livestream while the pig was breathing, people could see its brain activity on a large screen. If this technology is used on humans, after the chip picks up signals in the brain, these signals will be sent to nearby computers or APPs and then be translated into actions, such as moving an arm or leg.
It’s not a dream for people to use a small chip to change their life with their minds. For now the goal is to use it to help disabled people. They could control artificial limbs(假肢) with their minds and move around more easily. People could even use the technology to play video games or drive cars.
However, there is still a long way to make these things happen. The chip can send signals from about 500 neurons in the pig’s brain. However, the human brain has 80 billion neurons. Also, it is not safe to implant the chip yet, it could harm the brain. Hackers(黑客) could also hack into the chip and control others’ thoughts and feelings. There is another problem, too. When humans are connected to computers, are they still humans?
33. What was Musk’s livestreaming about?
A. How the chip works in many movies.
B. How the chip in the pig’s head works.
C. How to implant a chip into a pig’s head.
D. How to use a chip to control a pig.
34. What is the right process of signal transmission according to Paragraph 3?
A. brain→chip→computer
B. brain→action→computer
C. chip→brain→action
D. chip→computer→brain
35. What does Paragraph 4 mainly tell us about the technology?
A. The ability that it has to control brain activity.
B. The effects that it will have on people’s life.
C. The problems that it might bring to humans.
D. The way that it works.
36. How does the writer feel about the development of the chip according to the last paragraph?
A. Hopeful. B. Excited. C. Pleased. D. Doubtful.
D
Most of the world’s progress is made by the few pioneers who break barriers (阻碍), reach new distances, and find a new path. They are the few brave enough to believe in the seemingly impossible and try their best to make it possible. Once they do this, they open the gates for others to follow.
A powerful example of this is Roger Bannister, who in 1954, broke the four-minute mile barrier with a record of 3 minutes, 59.4 seconds. Before Bannister succeeded, the thought was considered not only dangerous but impossible. But Bannister did not pay attention to it, he developed within himself a certainty that it was achievable, even though there was no evidence (证据) to suggest it. In fact, there was a lot of evidence to suggest it wasn’t achievable. But his belief to success allowed him to train for years to his end goal.
On 6 May, 1954, Bannister’s remarkable achievement created a new wisdom. Just 24 days later, the barrier was broken again and in the last 50 years, more than 1,000 other runners have achieved the feat (成就). It was not that these runners had improved physical (身体的) qualities from the runners who had tried and failed before them, but that they had improved psychological (心理的) qualities. They had proof (证明) of the possible.
Sometimes we do need to see it to believe it. But if we care about stories of problems and failures, it can be difficult to see beyond them. Those people who achieve extraordinary things do not accept the current standards, they break the barriers of “what is” and push beyond them to “what could be”. Through learning from those who break barriers, we too can make our own potentials come true - to be a powerful force for good.
37. What does the underlined word “this” refer to in Paragraph 2?
A. Finding a new path. B. Being a pioneer.
C. The world’s progress. D. The 4-minute mile barrier.
38. What do we know about Roger Bannister?
A. He wanted others to follow him. B. He received support from his family.
C. He made a great achievement in running. D. He collected evidence to support himself.
39. Why are “other runners” mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A. To show the bravery of other runners. B. To show the importance of pioneers.
C. To show the power of following others. D. To show the importance of physical qualities.
40. What does the writer advise the readers to do in the last paragraph?
