DCCABC A AB D C
2l.B细节理解题。根据第一段中“From there,they make a list of the best books,cutting it down from60to
40,and finally to 20 during a heated discussion in Seattle.It's a long process where emotions run high.
Below are four of the top20 picks for2025”可知,亚马逊编辑最终挑选出的2025年最佳书籍是20本。
22.D细节理解题。根据Hello Beautiful部分中“HTello Beautiful offers strong emotions(情感),and that's
exactly what makes it so powerful and so page-turning.This is why we named it the Best Book of 2025.
知,Tello Beautiful之所以脱颖而出,是因为它提供了强烈的情感。
23.C推理判断题。根据King:A Life部分中“Eig's best record of Martin Luther King Jr.is an amazing
achievement in writing and research,telling the hardships and heroics of a man who changed the world.
知,这本书是关于马丁·路德·金的生活和奋斗历程的描述,因此它最能吸引对名人生活感兴趣的人。
24.D推理判断题。根据第二段中“but that day had been very difficult.I had just come out of a difficult
meeting.Five months earlier,I'd lost my friend Analia.Two weeks before,my aunt had passed away.I had
no time to process the losses,with one coming after the other.I just wanted to be alone with my sadness.
可知,作者近期遭遇了一系列烦心事,心情低落,因此不愿与出租车司机交谈。
25.B细节理解题。根据第三段中“At a red light,the driver asked,‘Could I put on some music?’I nodded an
okay.Maybe music would help us stay in our own worlds.”可知,作者认为也许音乐能帮他们各自待在自己
的世界里。
26.A推理判断题。根据第五段中“They would want me to enjoy each day the way they'd taught me.They
also taught me to value my job,my friends and family,the subway and bus rides,talkative taxi drivers,and
life.”可知,姑姑Nena和朋友Analia都教会作者要珍惜当下的每一天,享受生活中的点滴,这正是“活在当
下”的人生态度。
27.A细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It sure does,’I said.I opened my window to let the wind in,to let life
in,and to sing with a taxi driver for all of New Yorkand Aunt Nena and Analia-to hear.”可知,f作者从最
初拒绝交流,到最终愿意和司机一起唱歌、敞开心扉接纳生活,体现了她向他人打开了心扉。
28.C推理判断题。根据第一段中“Once numbering in the millions around the world,their population has
fallen by more than half over the past 100 years.Many biologists and environmental researchers warn that
they will face an increasing risk of extinction()if stronger and more effective protection measures are
not carried out right away..”可知,跳岩企鹅的总数减少,许多生物学家和环境研究人员发出警告,如果不立
即采取更有力,更有效的保护措施,它们面临的灭绝风险将增加。由此可推知,跳岩企鹅迫切需要更好的
保护。
29.D词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“In addition to food shortages,more frequent and strong storms often
break down their homes on rocks"以及下文“What's worse,human activities such as overfishing have further
broken their natural living environment.”可知,该句描述暴风雨对企鹅的危害:破坏岩石上的巢穴,并且大
批杀死幼崽。decimate意为“大量毁灭;大批杀死”,与kill语义相近。
30.A细节理解题。根据第三段中“On Sea Lion Island,workers build stone homes that can stand storms for
the penguins and place decoy(诱饵)birds to attract food for penguins.”可知,目前的保护措施包括为企鹅建
造可抵御风暴的坚固石屋。
31.B标题判断题。根据全文内容可知,本文先介绍跳岩企鹅数量大幅下降,并分析了它们面临的多种威胁,
随后重点介绍了研究人员和志愿者采取的一系列保护措施,以及这些措施带来的积极成效。B项概括全
面,最适合作为文章标题。
【高一期中测试·英语卷参考答案第1页(共4页)】
7103A
32.D细节理解题。根据第一段中“That's according to a new study that suggests a link between social media
use and poorer cognition in children."以及第二段中“‘It's also important to understand how social media use
during school hours specifically affects children's cognitive development,especially as many schools are
currently considering phone bans,says the new study author and pediatrician Jason Nagata of the
University of California,San Francisco.”可知,这项新研究主要聚焦社交媒体使用与儿童认知能力之间的
关联。
33.B推理判断题。根据第三段内容以及第四段中“All the groups were given a range of tests to measure their
cognitive functioning at the start of the study.”可知,研究人员通过对参与研究的儿童进行分组测试来开展
研究。
34.C细节理解题。根据第四段中“‘What was actually notable and surprising to me was that even the low
increasing social media users-those who use social media for about one hour a day by age 13-performed on
average 1 to 2 points lower on reading and memory tasks compared to non-social media users,'says
Nagata..”可知,令Nagata惊讶的是,即使是在l3岁之前每天使用1小时社交媒体的儿童,在阅读和记忆任
务上的表现比不使用社交媒体的儿童平均低1到2分。
35.B推理判断题。根据最后一段内容,尤其是“That means two,three,or five years from now,we might be
talking about some very big gaps()between children who were heavy users and those who were not."
推知,社交媒体使用可能会拉大未来认知能力的差距。
36.C上文说明了外貌焦虑的成因,下文具体举例说明了原因,即与他人进行比较,C项(社交比较是主要原
因。)承上启下,其中“Social comparison'”与下文“comparing your appearance with others”相呼应。故选
C项。
37.E上文给出改变消极想法的例子,空处应说明这种思维转变的作用,E项(这样的改变会提升你对自己的
看法。)中的Such changes指代上文从消极想法到积极想法的转变,承接上文。故选E项。
38.G上文提出创造性活动和运动可以转移对外貌的注意力,下文举例说明了团队运动的作用,G项(绘画有
助于关注创造力而非外表。)举例说明了创造性活动的作用,与上下文构成并列关系。故选G项。
39.B本段建议寻求他人帮助,如选择朋友、加人社团、向老师求助。B项(向信任的人寻求帮助。)概括了本段
主旨。故选B项。
40.F上文提出真正的美不在于外表完美,下文进一步说明真正的美在于内在特质,F项(它是关于那些让你
成为“你"的特别之处。)承接上文,说明真正的美在于个人独特的内在特质,且与下文kind and brave等内在
品质相呼应,承上启下。故选F项。
41.D根据下文“your destination”可知,坐火车的目的就是到达(get to)目的地。

47.A根据下文“I might miss an animal hidden somewhere”可知,作者无法专心看书,担心(afraid)错过藏在某
处的动物。
48.A根据下文“The endless plains'”;“rivers and forests”;“the snow-topped mountains”可知,火车向西行进,
景色(view)不断变化。

(followed)河流、森林和雪山。
50.D根据下文“enough to touch'”可知,雪山看起来很近(close),仿佛触手可及。
5l.C根据下文“Each had their own story”可知,和其他旅客的交谈(Conversations)打发了漫长的旅途时光。

Sports and Me
I started running simply to stay fit.However,my PE teacher noticed my speed and encouraged me to join
the track team,opening a new chapter in my life.
The most memorable moment was breaking the two-minute barrier for the 800-meter run.During the race,
my lungs burned,but I focused on my rhythm.When I saw the clock-1:58,I was filled with joy.I had
reached a new height.
Track has made a great difference in my life.It has taught me the spirit of self-competition and the belief
that great efforts lead to a breakthrough.The track is where I learned that the greatest enemy is often oneself,
and the sweetest victory is overcoming your own doubts.

Just then,a boy showed up and said hi.Bill was so nervous.He lifted his head slightly and saw a friendly-
looking boy standing in front of him.The boy said,"Hi,I'm Tom.I saw you sitting here.Do you want to play
game with me?"Bill was surprised.He thought for a moment and then nodded,saying,"Yes,I'd love to."Bill
realized that this was the first time he had played with others in this new school.He felt a warmth spreading in
his heart.

questions,he bravely raised his hand.What's more,he made more friends.Bill knew that the Friendship Bench

W:Hello.I'd like to book a mid-week break to Berlin at the end of this month.
M:Let's see...Unfortunately,all mid-week trips to Berlin in July are fully booked unless there's a cancelation.
But we do have availability in August.
W:Oh no!I can't go any other time.
M:It's much cheaper to go on holiday in the middle of the week than at the weekend.That's why mid-week

M:Hi,Rebecca.Thanks for talking to Eastern Press today.How is it going with the new sports range?
W:Hi,Steve.Not bad at all.
M:The idea of "sports at night"is such an absolutely original one.Can you tell me more about it?
W:Well,in many big cities,it's almost impossible for people to go jogging during the day.Everyone's very
busy.Anyway,one night in bed,I had this idea for a new type of sports clothing.
M:So you developed this range called "NightJogging".
W:That's right,and it appeals to men and women of all ages.The clothes are made from brightly colored
material and have highly reflective stickers,making joggers easily visible in the dark to ensure their safety.
M:Was it difficult to promote?
W:It was practically impossible to attract interest at the beginning.But then we won the support of a local
sports star.Since then,it's been absolutely amazing.
M:What are your plans for the future?
W:We would like to launch our range in China next year.And maybe in other countries after that.
M:Well,we wish you the best of luck.

I took a taxi in front of my office."Hello,madam,"the driver said cheerfully.I didn't
want to make small talk with a stranger,so I gave him my home address without even saying
a hello back.
I usually took the subway or a bus after work,but that day had been very difficult.I had
just come out of a difficult meeting.Five months earlier,I'd lost my friend Analia.Two
weeks before,my aunt had passed away.I had no time to process the losses,with one coming
after the other.I just wanted to be alone with my sadness.
At a red light,the driver asked,"Could I put on some music?"I nodded an okay.Maybe
music would help us stay in our own worlds..An old merengue(默朗格舞曲)filled the back
seat.I thought of Aunt Nena.She was always the first to hit the floor at family parties.
"Always provide yourself a reason to dance and sing,"she used to say.
【高一期中测试·英语卷第3页(共8页)】
7103A
The DJ said,"Friendships can be beautiful,can't they?This song is for all the best
friends."This song reminded me of something Analia and I would have sung on one of our
road trips.If she were here,she'd be singing along even now.
Was that what Analia and Aunt Nena would want for me?The merengue,the pop
songs-my aunt and my friend brought music into my life.They would want me to enjoy each
day the way they'd taught me.They also taught me to value my job,my friends and family,
the subway and bus rides,talkative taxi drivers,and life.
"Mind if I sing to this one?"the driver asked."The music feels better when others can
hear you sing.""It sure does,"I said.I opened my window to let the wind in,to let life in,
and to sing with a taxi driver for all of New Yorkand Aunt Nena and Analia-to hear.
24.Why did the author avoid talking to the taxi driver?
A.She felt uncomfortable with strangers.
B.She was in a hurry to get home.
C.She was tired from her daily work.
D.She had been having a tough time recently.
25.Why did the author allow the driver to play the music?
A.She wanted to relax after the meeting.
B.She wanted to stay in her own world.
C.She loved merengue music very much.
D.She planned to sing along with the music.
26.What did the author learn from Aunt Nena and Analia?
A.Live in the present.
B.Be kind to strangers.
C.Be ready to help others.
D.Try hard to be talkative.
27.What happened to the author according to the last paragraph?
A.She opened her heart to others.
B.She made friends with the driver.
C.She couldn't breathe in the car.
D.She got very tired of the taxi ride.
C
Have you ever heard about rockhopper penguins(跳岩企)?They are famous for their
jumps over rocky cliffs()and their special look across sub-Antarctic regions.At one
time,these lovely yet tough creatures gathered in huge groups all over the Falkland Islands.
Once numbering in the millions around the world,their population has fallen by more than
half over the past 100 years.Many biologists and environmental researchers warn that they
will face an increasing threat(威胁)of extinction(灭绝)if stronger and more effective
protection measures are not carried out right away.
Climate change stands as the biggest danger to rockhopper penguins'survival.Rising
ocean temperatures have greatly reduced the populations of small fish,which are their major
food sources.Adult penguins thus struggle to get enough food to feed both themselves and
their newly born babies.In addition to food shortages,more frequent and strong storms often
break down their homes on rocks and decimate their young babies.What's worse,human
activities such as overfishing have further broken their natural living environment.
To protect these lively jumpers from danger,researchers and local volunteers have
organized a series of practical protection projects.They provide penguins with GPS to record
their daily feeding routes and study how changing sea conditions influence their whole life
cycle.On Sea Lion Island,workers build stone homes that can stand storms for the penguins
and place decoy()birds to attract food for penguins.On New Island,people remove
sheep and plant native grass,creating safer and more comfortable living grounds.

Pre-teens who use increasing amounts of social media perform poorer in reading,
vocabulary and memory tests compared with those who use little or no social media.That's
according to a new study that suggests a link between social media use and poorer cognition(
知)in children.
"Most of the earlier research has focused on the impact of social media use on children's
mental health.It's also important to understand how social media use during school hours
specifically affects children's cognitive development,especially as many schools are currently
considering phone bans,"says the new study author and pediatrician Jason Nagata of the
University of California,San Francisco.
To understand that,researchers divided the children into three groups.The largest
group,consisting of about 58%of the children,used little or no social media over the next
few years.The second-largest group,about 37%of the children,started out with low-level
use of social media,but by the time they turned 13,they were spending about an hour each
day on social media.The remaining 5%of the children were spending about three or more
hours a day by age 13.
All the groups were given a range of tests to measure their cognitive functioning at the
start of the study."What was actually notable and surprising to me was that even the low-
increasing social media users-those who used social media for about one hour a day by age
13-performed on average 1 to 2 points lower on reading and memory tasks compared to non-
social media users,"says Nagata."The high-increasing group performed up to 4 to 5 points
lower than the non-social media users.
It's important to understand that children are a moving target;even a slight change in
their development after a short period of time means that they are now in a direction different
from others.That means two,three,or five years from now,we might be talking about some
very big gaps()between children who were heavy users and those who were not.
32.What does the new study mainly focus on?
A.Social media's impact on children's mental health.
B.Ways to improve teens'reading and memory test scores.
C.The reasons why schools are considering phone bans.
D.The link between social media use and teens'cognitive skills.

33.How did the researchers take the study?
A.By quoting an expert.
B.By testing in groups.
C.By giving examples.
D.By explaining a concept.
34.What did Nagata find surprising about the study results?
A.Non-social media users scored the highest in cognitive tests.
B.Heavy social media users scored 4 to 5 points lower than others.
C.Even 1-hour daily social media users had lower test scores.
D.The number of social media users was larger than expected.
35.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.Small differences in test scores will reduce over time.
B.Social media use may widen future development gaps.
C.Heavy social media users will fall behind in their studies.
D.Test scores are very important for children's future development.

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。
Appearance()anxiety means worrying too much about how you look,which is
especially common among teenagers.36 For example,spending hours checking carefully
edited selfies on social media or comparing your appearance with others often leads to negative
thoughts.Such constant worries not only damage self-confidence but may also lead to avoiding
social situations like school events or group activities.Fortunately,there are ways to handle
these feelings.
The first step is to practice kindness toward yourself.Instead of thinking,"My hair looks
messy,"try saying,"My hair protects me from the sun."Also,writing down three things
your body helps you do each day(like "My arms let me hug my friends")also builds lasting
confidence.37
Creative activities and sports offer healthy ways to shift focus.38 Also,team sports
like basketball teach players to value skills over appearance,with 72%of players claiming that
teamwork makes them value ability over appearance.Even easy activities like walking can
calm your mind by producing stress-relieving chemicals.
39 Choose friends who avoid comments on looks,and join school clubs that welcome
everyone.Adults,like teachers,can teach helpful tricks,like using apps to record feelings or
ways to stay positive.Cutting down time on apps that make you compare yourself is another
smart move.
Remember,true beauty isn't about being perfect physically.40 When we care more
about being kind and brave than looking a certain way,we start seeing real beauty in who
people are,not just how they appear.
A.Limit your Internet exposure.
B.Turn to trusted people for help.
C.Social comparison is the major cause.
D.Regular exercise improves physical health.
E.Such changes improve how you view yourself.
F.It is about the special things that make you "you".
G.Painting helps focus on creativity rather than looks.

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。
Bill had just come to Lakeside School as a new student.He had curly brown hair and
always kept his head down when walking in the hallway.Unlike other lively classmates,Bill
was very shy.He was afraid of talking to strangers and could barely speak up,even when the
teacher asked him a question.Every break time,he would sit alone by the window,watching
others play basketball or laugh loudly together,feeling like an outsider in the new school.
One Monday morning,Bill noticed some bright blue benches()installed on the
playground.There was a heart-warming sign on them:"Friendship Bench-Sit Here if You
Want a Friend."Curious,he visited the school website and learned that the school put the
bench to help lonely students make friends.He also found out how the bench worked:"When
you sit on the bench,say yes to the first person who invites you to play and talk.If you see
someone sitting on the bench,invite them to play and talk."
Bill nodded silently,but he didn't dare to try it.The thought of sitting there and waiting
for others to notice him,made his heart race.Days passed,and Bill still stayed alone.
One Friday afternoon,during the last break before school ended,he was hanging around
on the playground when his eyes fell on the Friendship Bench.He noticed a girl who seldom
talked in class sitting on the bench.Almost right away another girl went to say hi.They
seemed to have a good time talking with each other.Longing for a friendship of his own,Bill
finally found the courage to sit on the bench.With butterflies in his stomach,he kept his head
down and waited.
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。
Just then,a boy showed up and said hi.
From that day on,changes silently took place within Bill.
