B When my 89-year-old father said he heard I “went virus,” I gently corrected him: “I went viral (走红).” Every visit, I reminded myself to keep it light. Love, in our house, had always arrived indirectly, through rules and self-control. “Your brother said you went virus,” he repeated. “Viral,” I said again. “On Instagram.” When he asked what Instagram was, I hesitated. Over the years, I had learned to stop offering pieces of my life that were politely ignored. “Just videos,” I said. “What kind?” he asked, his voice carrying something unfamiliar — concern. I briefly described the show — how I cried recording it, and how it was shared by tens of thousands. I spoke carefully, not wanting to seem like I was asking for approval. He fell silent, then said softly, “Mary, your brother mentioned people were talking about you. I didn’t get it.” He met my eyes. “Maybe… maybe I should.” When he insisted on watching, I realized he was serious. Later, on the couch, I felt myself tensing up as the show unfolded. I stole glances at him. His face was unreadable, but he never looked away. After it ended, the room felt different. “I didn’t know,” he said. “Didn’t know what?” I asked. “What it was like,” he said. “For you.” The sentence sat between us, unmissable. I thought of all the years I had wanted him to see me as a person whose inner life mattered. I told myself I no longer needed that recognition — but my body reacted before my philosophy could intervene (干预). We talked afterward about my life now and his slowing down. As I was leaving, he stopped me. “I’m glad you are going viral,” he said. Driving home, I thought about how love often arrives late, when people are finally tired of defending themselves, how close “virus” was to “viral” — both implying spread and contact — and how love works the same way, moving unpredictably between people, finding openings where it can. 4. Why was the author unwilling to explain Instagram at first? A. To hold back from opening herself up. B. To spare her father the confusion. C. To wait for the long-expected approval. D. To avoid disturbing her father’s life. 5. How did the author feel when her father watched the show? A. Embarrassed. B. Nervous. C. Regretful. D. Touched. 6. What does the underlined part indicate about her father in the last but one paragraph? A. He got the literal meaning of the word viral. B. He was finally willing to put aside his pride. C. He regretted not having seen the show earlier. D. He was finally able to acknowledge her true self. 7. What message does the story convey? A. Old habits die hard. B. Like father, like daughter. C. Better late than never. D. Blood is thicker than water. C Every year, monarch butterflies travel thousands of kilometers as they migrate from Canada to Mexico in the fall, just to head back north again in the spring. This is possible thanks to the natural structure of their wings, which makes them lightweight, flexible, and excellent at flying — a unique combination the researchers wanted to copy in their robots. Despite their small size, the natural design of monarch butterfly wings is very complex, evolving to stand extremely long journeys. One of the fundamental principles that make these wings so efficient during flight is that they don’t just create thrust (推力) by actively moving, but also by passively bending their natural shape, which allows them to ‘glide’ without spending additional energy. To achieve this, the research team, led by Oliver Gutfleisch at TU Darmstadt, built the robotic butterfly wings by putting magnetic particles (磁性粒子) into a flexible plastic material. “The wings are made from a magnetic composite material that responds to external magnetic fields,” said Kilian Schāfer, co-author of the study. “When a magnetic field is applied, the magnetic particles cause the wings to bend, copying the movement of real butterfly wings.” Using 3D printing, the researchers created 12 different wing designs with different sizes to test their behavior using a mix of experimental tests and computer simulations. Some of the designs also recreated vein (翅脉) patterns in their design that copied those found in monarch butterfly wings to test if these structures could improve their performance. What they found was that larger wings — about 28 mm long — with vein patterns were less rigid and easier to bend, making them better at adapting their shape during flight. In their tests, the scientists also found that butterflies that were 3D-printed using higher energy laser (激光) settings were thinner and better at bending. However, they were also more delicate and easily damaged. “The biggest challenge was creating thin, flexible structures with vein patterns that were still functional while being less than a millimeter thick,” said Schāfer. “Ensuring that these features were preserved required fine-tuning 3Dprinting process, particularly the laser energy settings, to achieve the desired mechanical properties.” 8. How did the researchers make the robotic wings fly? A. By applying external magnetic fields. B. By using the restorative force of the plastic. C. By filling them with air pressure. D. By attaching tiny mechanical motors. 9. What did the scientists find about the 3D-printed robotic wings? A. All wing designs showed identical flight behavior. B. Smaller wings kept robots’ energy requirement low. C. Larger wings with vein patterns performed the best. D. The vein patterns made wings rigid and worse for flight. 10. What is the message implied in the last paragraph? A. 3D printing helped produce stronger robotic butterflies. B. Adjusting laser energy could make ideal robotic butterflies. C. Magnetic material made flying robots unable to function well. D. Higher energy settings ensured wings were more adaptable. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Monarch Butterfly Migration Is Simply Magical B. Butterflies Lead to Artificial Colors for 3D Printing C. Butterflies’ Movements Reveal Earth’s Magnetic Field D. Monarch Butterflies Have Inspired the Robotic Wings D Artificial intelligence-generated summaries of scientific papers make complex information more understandable for the public compared with human-written summaries, according to my recent paper. I used GPT-5 to create summaries of scientific papers. The AI-generated summaries used simpler and more common words, like “job” instead of “occupation”, than summaries written by the researchers who had done the work. Besides, readers of the AI-generated summaries had a better understanding of the science, and they provided more detailed, accurate explanations of the content than readers of the human-written summaries. I also investigated what effects the simpler summaries might have on people’s opinions of the scientists who performed the research. Participants believed scientists using simpler texts presented more cogent findings than scientists whose work was described in the more complex texts. In an era where scientific awareness is crucial for informed decision-making, the abilities to communicate and grasp complex ideas are more important than ever. Trust in science has been declining for years, and one contributing factor may be the challenge of understanding scientific terms. My research offers some insights: using AI to simplify science communication. By making scientific content more approachable, this work demonstrates that AI-generated summaries may help to restore trust in scientists and, in turn, encourage greater public participation in scientific issues. The question of trust is particularly important, as people often rely on science in their daily lives, from eating habits to medical choices. While the benefits of AI-generated science communication are perhaps clear, ethical (伦理的) considerations must also be taken into account. Relying on AI to simplify scientific content may remove nuance (细微差别), potentially leading to misunderstandings or oversimplifications. There’s always the chance of mistakes, too, if no one pays close attention. Simple science descriptions are preferable to and more beneficial than complex ones, and AI tools can help. But scientists could also achieve the same goals by working harder to minimize terms and communicate clearly — no AI necessary. 12. Which of the following is most likely written by AI? A. The paper proposes a theoretical model. B. The research looks at people’s eating habits. C. The findings demonstrate substantial implications. D. The study investigates dietary consumption patterns. 13. What does the underlined word “cogent” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Surprising. B. Interesting. C. Conflicting. D. Convincing. 14. In which pattern are paragraphs 4 and 5 organized? A. Cause and effect. B. Comparison and contrast. C. Opinion and examples. D. Problem and solution. 15. What is paragraph 6 mainly about concerning AI-generated content? A. Its potential risks. B. Its technical improvements. C. Its growing demand. D. Its complex structure. 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。 How would you feel if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends?

Still, the smallest things made me feel out of place. Luckily, the Harrisons, my host family, did everything they could to help me settle in — driving me around, sharing meals, and even letting me use their kitchen when I missed Chinese food. With their warmth and support, everything seemed to fall into place. But at school, small moments felt bigger than I’d imagined. In our first literature class, we discussed After Twenty Years, a short story by O. Henry. Everyone jumped in actively, while I struggled to speak up. My desk-mate gave me a gentle nudge, “Next time, just speak up.” I nodded, forcing a bitter smile. And just like that, I found myself in another cultural trap, Mrs. Harrison’s birthday dinner. At the table, I answered politely but kept mostly to myself. Mrs. Harrison noticed my silence and asked, “You alright, gentle boy? You’re so quiet tonight.” My face reddened. Was my silence seen as cold, rather than polite? That night, restless and wide awake, I wondered if I needed to laugh louder, speak faster; or hide parts of myself just to feel I belonged. Questions flooded my mind, none with answers. A few days later, our teacher announced there would be a Culture Festival next week. “You’ll prepare a stand to share your own culture — food, crafts, customs... anything meaningful. You can not only display your culture but also make it interactive, allowing people to try new things, learn traditional skills or share stories and cultural symbols,” she said. The class lit up with excitement. I sat frozen, mind racing: how could I share my traditions in English? Yet, I gathered myself with a deep breath and signed up. After that, I threw myself wholeheartedly into preparations, until the day finally came. 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。 With butterflies in my stomach, I stood behind my stand at the Culture Festival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, my world here started to change. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 大连市第二十四中学2026-2027学年度高一年级期中考试英语试题 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1.

Love, in our house, had always arrived indirectly, through rules and self-control. “Your brother said you went virus,” he repeated. “Viral,” I said again. “On Instagram.” When he asked what Instagram was, I hesitated. Over the years, I had learned to stop offering pieces of my life that were politely ignored. “Just videos,” I said. “What kind?” he asked, his voice carrying something unfamiliar — concern. I briefly described the show — how I cried recording it, and how it was shared by tens of thousands. I spoke carefully, not wanting to seem like I was asking for approval. He fell silent, then said softly, “Mary, your brother mentioned people were talking about you. I didn’t get it.” He met my eyes. “Maybe… maybe I should.” When he insisted on watching, I realized he was serious. Later, on the couch, I felt myself tensing up as the show unfolded. I stole glances at him. His face was unreadable, but he never looked away. After it ended, the room felt different. “I didn’t know,” he said. “Didn’t know what?” I asked. “What it was like,” he said. “For you.” The sentence sat between us, unmissable. I thought of all the years I had wanted him to see me as a person whose inner life mattered. I told myself I no longer needed that recognition — but my body reacted before my philosophy could intervene (干预). We talked afterward about my life now and his slowing down. As I was leaving, he stopped me. “I’m glad you are going viral,” he said. Driving home, I thought about how love often arrives late, when people are finally tired of defending themselves, how close “virus” was to “viral” — both implying spread and contact — and how love works the same way, moving unpredictably between people, finding openings where it can. 4. Why was the author unwilling to explain Instagram at first? A. To hold back from opening herself up. B. To spare her father the confusion. C. To wait for the long-expected approval. D. To avoid disturbing her father’s life. 5. How did the author feel when her father watched the show? A. Embarrassed. B. Nervous. C. Regretful. D. Touched. 6. What does the underlined part indicate about her father in the last but one paragraph? A. He got the literal meaning of the word viral. B. He was finally willing to put aside his pride. C. He regretted not having seen the show earlier. D. He was finally able to acknowledge her true self. 7. What message does the story convey? A. Old habits die hard. B. Like father, like daughter. C. Better late than never. D. Blood is thicker than water. 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述一位89岁父亲误将女儿的“走红”听成“病毒”，最终主动观看女儿的作品并表达理解，展现了亲情的迟来与珍贵。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When he asked what Instagram was, I hesitated. Over the years, I had learned to stop offering pieces of my life that were politely ignored. (当他问Instagram是什么时，我犹豫了。多年来，我已经学会不再主动分享那些被礼貌地忽略的生活片段)”以及第三段“I spoke carefully, not wanting to seem like I was asking for approval.(我说话很谨慎，不想让人觉得我是在请求认可)”可知，作者起初不愿解释Instagram，是因为她习惯了不再向父亲展露自己的个人生活，不想敞开心扉。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Later, on the couch, I felt myself tensing up as the show unfolded. (后来，在沙发上，随着节目展开，我感觉到自己紧张起来)”可知，当父亲观看节目时，作者感到紧张。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“His face was unreadable, but he never looked away. After it ended, the room felt different.(他脸上的神色让人捉摸不透，但他从不把目光移开。结束后，房间感觉不一样了)”以及第六段““I didn’t know,” he said. “Didn’t know what?” I asked. “What it was like,” he said. “For you.” (“我不知道，”他说。“不知道什么？”我问。“那是怎样的，”他说。“对你来说。”)”可知，父亲此前一直不理解viral，甚至说成virus，但在看完节目后，他理解了作者的经历和内心世界，并最终表达认可，这表明父亲最终承认并认可了女儿真实的内心世界。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Driving home, I thought about how love often arrives late, when people are finally tired of defending themselves, how close “virus” was to “viral” — both implying spread and contact — and how love works the same way, moving unpredictably between people, finding openings where it can. (开车回家的路上，我想到了爱常常来得很晚，当人们终于厌倦了为自己辩护时，“病毒”与“viral(走红)”的距离有多近——两者都意味着传播和接触——以及爱是如何以同样的方式运作的，在人与人之间不可预测地流动，在可能的地方找到机会)”以及文章内容可知，文章讲述作者与父亲之间长期情感表达间接、含蓄，直到父亲晚年才真正看见并认可作者的内心世界。结尾love often arrives late点明主题：爱虽迟来，但终究到来，迟到总比没有好。 C Every year, monarch butterflies travel thousands of kilometers as they migrate from Canada to Mexico in the fall, just to head back north again in the spring. This is possible thanks to the natural structure of their wings, which makes them lightweight, flexible, and excellent at flying — a unique combination the researchers wanted to copy in their robots. Despite their small size, the natural design of monarch butterfly wings is very complex, evolving to stand extremely long journeys. One of the fundamental principles that make these wings so efficient during flight is that they don’t just create thrust (推力) by actively moving, but also by passively bending their natural shape, which allows them to ‘glide’ without spending additional energy. To achieve this, the research team, led by Oliver Gutfleisch at TU Darmstadt, built the robotic butterfly wings by putting magnetic particles (磁性粒子) into a flexible plastic material. “The wings are made from a magnetic composite material that responds to external magnetic fields,” said Kilian Schāfer, co-author of the study. “When a magnetic field is applied, the magnetic particles cause the wings to bend, copying the movement of real butterfly wings.” Using 3D printing, the researchers created 12 different wing designs with different sizes to test their behavior using a mix of experimental tests and computer simulations. Some of the designs also recreated vein (翅脉) patterns in their design that copied those found in monarch butterfly wings to test if these structures could improve their performance. What they found was that larger wings — about 28 mm long — with vein patterns were less rigid and easier to bend, making them better at adapting their shape during flight. In their tests, the scientists also found that butterflies that were 3D-printed using higher energy laser (激光) settings were thinner and better at bending. However, they were also more delicate and easily damaged. “The biggest challenge was creating thin, flexible structures with vein patterns that were still functional while being less than a millimeter thick,” said Schāfer. “Ensuring that these features were preserved required fine-tuning 3Dprinting process, particularly the laser energy settings, to achieve the desired mechanical properties.” 8. How did the researchers make the robotic wings fly? A. By applying external magnetic fields. B. By using the restorative force of the plastic. C. By filling them with air pressure. D. By attaching tiny mechanical motors. 9. What did the scientists find about the 3D-printed robotic wings? A. All wing designs showed identical flight behavior. B. Smaller wings kept robots’ energy requirement low. C. Larger wings with vein patterns performed the best. D. The vein patterns made wings rigid and worse for flight. 10. What is the message implied in the last paragraph? A. 3D printing helped produce stronger robotic butterflies. B. Adjusting laser energy could make ideal robotic butterflies. C. Magnetic material made flying robots unable to function well. D. Higher energy settings ensured wings were more adaptable. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Monarch Butterfly Migration Is Simply Magical B. Butterflies Lead to Artificial Colors for 3D Printing C. Butterflies’ Movements Reveal Earth’s Magnetic Field D. Monarch Butterflies Have Inspired the Robotic Wings 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了研究人员受帝王蝶翅膀高效飞行机制的启发，利用磁性复合材料和3D打印技术制造机器人翅膀，并通过调整翅膀尺寸、翅脉图案及激光能量设置来优化其飞行性能。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When a magnetic field is applied, the magnetic particles cause the wings to bend, copying the movement of real butterfly wings. (当施加磁场时，磁性粒子会使翅膀发生弯曲，从而模仿出真实蝴蝶翅膀的运动方式。)”可知，研究人员通过施加外部磁场使机器人翅膀飞行。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“What they found was that larger wings — about 28 mm long — with vein patterns were less rigid and easier to bend, making them better at adapting their shape during flight. (他们发现，带有翅脉图案、长约28毫米的较大翅膀，刚性较小，更容易弯曲，从而使其在飞行过程中能够更好地调整自身的形状。)”可知，科学家发现，带有翅脉图案的较大翅膀表现最佳。故选C项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Ensuring that these features were preserved required fine-tuning 3Dprinting process, particularly the laser energy settings, to achieve the desired mechanical properties. (要确保这些特性得以保留，就需要对3D打印过程进行精细调整，尤其是要调整激光能量的设置，以达到所需的机械性能。)”可推知，调整激光能量可以制造出理想的机器人蝴蝶。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“This is possible thanks to the natural structure of their wings, which makes them lightweight, flexible, and excellent at flying — a unique combination the researchers wanted to copy in their robots. (这之所以能够实现，是因为它们翅膀的自然结构使其具备了轻巧、灵活以及出色的飞行能力——这种独特的组合正是研究人员希望在他们的机器人中复制的。)”可知，文章整体围绕研究人员模仿帝王蝶翅膀的自然结构来制造机器人翅膀，并详细描述了设计、测试和优化过程。因此，D项“帝王蝶启发了机器人翅膀的设计”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选D项。 D Artificial intelligence-generated summaries of scientific papers make complex information more understandable for the public compared with human-written summaries, according to my recent paper. I used GPT-5 to create summaries of scientific papers. The AI-generated summaries used simpler and more common words, like “job” instead of “occupation”, than summaries written by the researchers who had done the work. Besides, readers of the AI-generated summaries had a better understanding of the science, and they provided more detailed, accurate explanations of the content than readers of the human-written summaries. I also investigated what effects the simpler summaries might have on people’s opinions of the scientists who performed the research. Participants believed scientists using simpler texts presented more cogent findings than scientists whose work was described in the more complex texts. In an era where scientific awareness is crucial for informed decision-making, the abilities to communicate and grasp complex ideas are more important than ever. Trust in science has been declining for years, and one contributing factor may be the challenge of understanding scientific terms. My research offers some insights: using AI to simplify science communication. By making scientific content more approachable, this work demonstrates that AI-generated summaries may help to restore trust in scientists and, in turn, encourage greater public participation in scientific issues. The question of trust is particularly important, as people often rely on science in their daily lives, from eating habits to medical choices. While the benefits of AI-generated science communication are perhaps clear, ethical (伦理的) considerations must also be taken into account. Relying on AI to simplify scientific content may remove nuance (细微差别), potentially leading to misunderstandings or oversimplifications. There’s always the chance of mistakes, too, if no one pays close attention. Simple science descriptions are preferable to and more beneficial than complex ones, and AI tools can help. But scientists could also achieve the same goals by working harder to minimize terms and communicate clearly — no AI necessary. 12. Which of the following is most likely written by AI? A. The paper proposes a theoretical model. B. The research looks at people’s eating habits. C. The findings demonstrate substantial implications. D. The study investigates dietary consumption patterns. 13. What does the underlined word “cogent” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Surprising. B. Interesting. C. Conflicting. D. Convincing. 14. In which pattern are paragraphs 4 and 5 organized? A. Cause and effect. B. Comparison and contrast. C. Opinion and examples. D. Problem and solution. 15. What is paragraph 6 mainly about concerning AI-generated content? A. Its potential risks. B. Its technical improvements. C. Its growing demand. D. Its complex structure. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了人工智能生成的论文摘要能简化科学内容、提升大众理解度，有助于重建公众对科学的信任，但同时也存在丢失细节、产生误解等伦理隐患，并且指出科学家自身也可以做到清晰通俗地科普。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The AI-generated summaries used simpler and more common words, like ‘job’ instead of “occupation”, than summaries written by the researchers who had done the work. (相较于完成研究的科研人员所写的摘要，这些人工智能生成的摘要会使用更简单、更常见的词汇，例如用‘job (工作)’代替‘occupation (职业)’。)”可知，人工智能生成的摘要用词简单日常，对比四个选项，只有B选项“The research looks at people’s eating habits.”是非常通俗简单的表达，符合人工智能摘要的语言特点。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Participants believed scientists using simpler texts presented more cogent findings than scientists whose work was described in the more complex texts. (实验参与者认为，使用更简单文本的科学家所呈现的研究结论，比那些研究内容被复杂文字描述的科学家的结论更cogent。)”并结合上下文提到的易懂的科学内容能提升公众对科学的信任，可以推知简单易懂的表述会让大家觉得研究结果更令人信服，由此可推测，cogent意为“令人信服的”，对应D选项“Convincing”。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Trust in science has been declining for years, and one contributing factor may be the challenge of understanding scientific terms. (多年来，公众对科学的信任一直在下降，其中一个原因可能就是人们难以理解各类科学术语。)”以及第五段中“My research offers some insights: using AI to simplify science communication. By making scientific content more approachable, this work demonstrates that AI-generated summaries may help to restore trust in scientists and, in turn, encourage greater public participation in scientific issues. (我的研究带来了一些启发：我们可以利用人工智能简化科学传播。这项研究表明，通过降低科学内容的理解门槛，人工智能生成的摘要或许有助于重塑大众对科学家的信任，进而促使更多公众参与到科学相关议题的讨论当中。)”可知，第四段提出公众看不懂科技术语、对科学信任下降这一难题，第五段给出用人工智能简化科普的解决办法，两段是问题与解决办法的结构。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第六段中“While the benefits of AI-generated science communication are perhaps clear, ethical (伦理的) considerations must also be taken into account. Relying on AI to simplify scientific content may remove nuance (细微差别), potentially leading to misunderstandings or oversimplifications. (尽管人工智能辅助科普的好处显而易见，但我们也必须考量伦理层面的问题。依靠人工智能简化科学内容，有可能抹去信息中的细微差别，容易造成误解或是过度简化。)”可知，本段主要谈论人工智能生成科普内容带来的隐患，也就是它的潜在风险。 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。 How would you feel if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends?

A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章探讨了科技如何改变人们的交友方式以及网络友谊的利弊，同时强调尽管科技改变了人们获得朋友的方式，但友谊的本质不变。 【16题详解】 上文“How would you feel if moving to a new town meant losing track of your friends? What if the only way of getting news from faraway friends was writing letters that took ages to be delivered? This was how things worked not very long ago. (如果你搬到一个新的城镇意味着与你的朋友失去联系，你会有什么感觉？如果从远方的朋友那里得到消息的唯一方式是写那些需要很长时间才能送达的信呢？这就是不久前的情况)”说明过去与朋友保持联系的方式很不方便。空处承接上文，说明现在的情况。F项“如今，我们彼此联系的方式已经发生了显著的变化”符合语境，引出下文介绍现在的联系方式。故选F。 【17题详解】 上文“Thanks to advances in technology, today we can move around the world and still stay in touch with the people that we want to remain friends with. All we need is a Wi-Fi connection. (多亏了科技的进步，如今我们可以周游世界，仍然与我们想保持朋友关系的人保持联系。我们所需要的只是一个 Wi-Fi 连接)”以及下文“For example, strangers who have the same hobby of collecting model cars may be brought together by the Internet, even if they live on different parts of the world. (例如，有收集模型汽车相同爱好的陌生人可能会被互联网聚集在一起，即使他们生活在世界的不同地方)”说明科技进步使得人们保持联系很方便，并举例说明互联网能把有相同爱好的人聚集在一起。G项“数字时代也使我们能够找到与我们有共同兴趣的人”符合语境，承上启下。故选G。 【18题详解】 下文“If people always exchange true personal information online, these friendships can be real and meaningful. But we need to keep in mind that what we see on social media is often not the whole truth about a person. (如果人们总是在网上交换真实的个人信息，这些友谊可以是真实而有意义的。但我们需要记住，我们在社交媒体上看到的往往不是一个人的全部真相)”说明在网上交友时，人们看到的信息不一定是真实的，需要谨慎对待。E项中的however体现了与上文的转折关系，提醒人们在网上交友要谨慎判断朋友的真实性，引出下文关于网络交友需要注意的内容。所以E项“然而，在网上时要留意他们是否是真正的朋友”符合语境。故选E。 【19题详解】 上文“On social media sites, people tend to post only positive messages or photos that make them appear happy and friendly. (在社交媒体网站上，人们倾向于只发布积极的信息或照片，使他们看起来快乐和友好)”说明人们在社交媒体上发布的信息往往是积极的。空处承接上文，说明这些积极的信息背后可能存在的问题。C项“实际上，微笑的照片可以隐藏真正的问题”符合语境，与上文构成转折关系。故选C。 【20题详解】 上文“However, this doesn’t mean that we should throw the baby out with the bathwater. (然而，这并不意味着我们应该不分好坏地全盘否定)”以及下文“although technology has changed the way we acquire friends. As Aristotle said, no one would choose to live without friends, even if he had all other goods. (尽管科技已经改变了我们获得朋友的方式。正如亚里士多德所说，没有人会选择没有朋友的生活，即使他拥有所有其他的东西)”说明虽然科技改变了交友方式，但友谊仍然很重要。A 项“友谊的意义仍然是一样的”符合语境，承上启下。故选A。 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 On my very first day of high school, surrounded by unfamiliar faces and brand-new classrooms, I was in a constant hurry.

Without 43. have been founded 44. the 45. survival 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍丹顶鹤的外形、栖息习性、保护现状及其文化意义。 【36题详解】 考查形容词。句意：在中国文化中，丹顶鹤长期以来被视作代表幸福与好运的标志性生物。修饰名词creature要用形容词，symbol的形容词形式是symbolic，表示“标志性的，象征的”。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它是世界上体型最大的鹤类之一，平均身高约150厘米。此处是with复合结构，height和average是主动关系，用现在分词averaging作宾补。 【38题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：它得名的独特特征就是头顶鲜红的皮肤。此处引导定于从句，先行词是feature，指物，介词from提前，关系代词用which，from which相当于where。 【39题详解】 考查时态语态。句意：丹顶鹤分布在中国、俄罗斯、蒙古、日本以及朝鲜半岛，因为那里的自然环境满足它的生存需求。主语The red-crowned crane和find是被动关系，描述客观事实，用一般现在时的被动语态。 【40题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：在中国，天气较温暖的月份它会待在东北的河流与湿地。后文天冷会迁徙，对比可知指更温暖的时段，用比较级warmer作定语。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这种鸟只在自然栖息地足够安全的地方繁殖，这样它才能承担起亲鸟的职责。固定结构be + adj. + for sb./sth. to do sth.，所以此处使用动词不定式形式to assume作状语。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意：如果没有有效的保护，这种珍稀鸟类将会面临极大的灭绝风险。without表示“没有”，构成含蓄虚拟语气，句首首字母大写。 【43题详解】 考查时态语态。句意：得益于多方共同努力，迄今为止已经成立了很多丹顶鹤保护组织。时间标志to date（迄今为止），用现在完成时；groups和found是被动关系，所以此处使用现在完成时的被动语态，且主语为名词复数，所以谓语动词为have been founded。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：保护丹顶鹤不仅维持生态平衡，也守护珍贵的文化符号，让后代能够欣赏这种优雅生灵的美。the beauty of… 表示“……之美”，是特指，用定冠词the。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：保障丹顶鹤的长久存活是我们共同的责任。形容词long-term后面接名词，survive的名词形式是survival，不可数名词，意为“存活”。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Sophie正在开展一项关于各国中学英语教材的调查，希望了解你当前使用的高中英语必修一。请给她回复邮件，内容包括： (1)介绍各单元内部的主要组成部分； (2)以其中一个单元为例，说明该单元的主题以及学习收获。 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。 Dear Sophie, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes, Li Hua 【答案】 Dear Sophie, I’m glad to tell you something about our Senior High English Compulsory Book 1, which we are using now.

Still, the smallest things made me feel out of place. Luckily, the Harrisons, my host family, did everything they could to help me settle in — driving me around, sharing meals, and even letting me use their kitchen when I missed Chinese food. With their warmth and support, everything seemed to fall into place. But at school, small moments felt bigger than I’d imagined. In our first literature class, we discussed After Twenty Years, a short story by O. Henry. Everyone jumped in actively, while I struggled to speak up. My desk-mate gave me a gentle nudge, “Next time, just speak up.” I nodded, forcing a bitter smile. And just like that, I found myself in another cultural trap, Mrs. Harrison’s birthday dinner. At the table, I answered politely but kept mostly to myself. Mrs. Harrison noticed my silence and asked, “You alright, gentle boy? You’re so quiet tonight.” My face reddened. Was my silence seen as cold, rather than polite? That night, restless and wide awake, I wondered if I needed to laugh louder, speak faster; or hide parts of myself just to feel I belonged. Questions flooded my mind, none with answers. A few days later, our teacher announced there would be a Culture Festival next week. “You’ll prepare a stand to share your own culture — food, crafts, customs... anything meaningful. You can not only display your culture but also make it interactive, allowing people to try new things, learn traditional skills or share stories and cultural symbols,” she said. The class lit up with excitement. I sat frozen, mind racing: how could I share my traditions in English? Yet, I gathered myself with a deep breath and signed up. After that, I threw myself wholeheartedly into preparations, until the day finally came. 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。 With butterflies in my stomach, I stood behind my stand at the Culture Festival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ From that day on, my world here started to change. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文 With butterflies in my stomach, I stood behind my stand at the Culture Festival. I spread out red paper, sharp scissors and finished paper‑cut works carefully. Nervousness held me back until my desk‑mate walked over and gave me an encouraging nod. I began to show how to fold and cut paper step by step. One girl tried and made a simple flower, which made everyone cheer. More students gathered around the stand. I kept explaining the history of Chinese paper‑cutting and helped them fix their cuts. Words flowed out naturally, and my nervousness slowly melted away. From that day on, my world here started to change. My classmates would wave and talk with me whenever we met. In literature class, I was willing to raise my hand and express my thoughts. Mrs. Harrison often asked me to teach her some small Chinese customs at dinner. I no longer worried that my quietness would be mistaken for coldness. I realized I did not have to pretend to be someone else. By sharing my culture, I found my own place in this new world. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了中国交换生初到新西兰倍感隔阂，借文化节分享中华文化，最终收获认同、找到归属感的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者紧张地展示中国文化，吸引同学体验。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者变得自信，收获认同，感悟融入之道。 2.续写线索：紧张忐忑——展示剪纸——众人参与——自信提升——友好交往——感悟融入 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①欢呼：cheer/applaud ②消失：melt away/disappear/fade away 情绪类 ①紧张：nervousness/anxiety ②担心的：worried/concerned 【点睛】【高分句型1】Nervousness held me back until my desk‑mate walked over and gave me an encouraging nod.
