三、阅读理解（共4小题，每小题5分）
When I was 25, I dreamed of crown (皇冠), That was the summer I made the shortlist for a female novel prize. The winner was to be announced at a televised event. I was very excited and imagined myself on TV, A crown would be on my head. And then in August of that year, the prize was cancelled for some reason. I was disappointed but still full of hope.
To me, writing has always been an exciting act, especially the early moments of creation. This excitement inspired me through years of writing. I published several YA books, and my sense of achievement grew, Yet I was also flooded with rejection letters. Several adult novels that I worked on for years came to nothing.
By the time I turned 40, these rejection letters began to eat away at my hope. I had always known that my books weren’t going to make me rich, but I couldn’t help feeling disappointed that my writing career hadn’t become something more. Actually, I worked less teaching hours, and sent my kids off to pre-school so I could write, but I felt so little had come from it, When my publisher stopped publishing YA books, sadness hung over me.
The following years were tough. I still wrote because I didn’t know what else to do. I stopped trying to believe that writing was going to support me financially and then an unexpected thing happened: writing became hopeful again. My younger dreams of being a famous writer have given way to more middle-aged satisfactions: the children who tell me they read my books and liked them, my students who say they saw me in a local magazine. Small things are a new kind of hope.
Recently, for my 50th birthday, I went to China with my friend. We were in a gift shop when a crown caught my eye. I bought it for myself, and wore it for my birthday party, just for fun.
11.What can be learned about the author from the first two paragraphs
A. She achieved a lot in adult novel.
B. She took pride in being a YA writer.
C. She attended a novel competition on TV
D. She got a crown as a prize for the winner.
12.According to paragraph 3, why did the author feel disappointed about her writing career’
A. Writing didn’t reward her with wealth
B. Writing took up too much of her time.
C. She made little advance in writing.
D. She lost chances to teach her kids.
13.Why does the author mention the children and her students in paragraph 4
A. To explain a new hope. B. To stress a good relationship.
C. To compare small things. D. To prove the popularity of her books,
14.The author bought herself a crown because
A. she wanted to praise herself
B. it represents Chinese culture
C. it would make her party special
D. she has made peace with her dream

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：had brought
解析：根据 “Every Saturday night Mama would sit down by the kitchen table and count out the money...” 可知，妈妈数钱是过去经常发生的动作，而爸爸把钱带回家这个动作是在妈妈数钱之前发生的，即过去的过去，所以要用过去完成时，其结构为 “had + 过去分词”，bring 的过去分词是 brought，所以填 had brought。
2.答案：whom
解析：这里是一个非限制性定语从句，先行词是 “Participants”（参与者），指人，且在从句中作介词 “of” 的宾语，所以要用关系代词 whom。
3.答案：has been committed
解析：根据时间状语 “ever since”（自从那时起）可知，句子要用现在完成时。“he” 与 “commit” 之间是被动关系，即 “他致力于学习” 是 “他被使致力于学习” 的意思，所以要用现在完成时的被动语态，其结构为 “have/has been + 过去分词”，主语是 “he”，所以填 has been committed。
4.答案：in
解析：“engage in” 是固定短语，意为 “从事；参与”，此处指参与常规锻炼，所以填 “in”。
5.答案：where
解析：先行词是 “Beijing”，在后面的非限定性定语从句中作地点状语，意思是 “在北京，他已经生活了过去的五年”，所以用关系副词 “where” 引导定语从句，填 “where”。
二、完成句子
6.答案：On Wednesday evening, an earthquake struck the beautiful city, causing great damage to the buildings.
解析：考查动词时态和非谓语动词。表示“星期三晚上”用on Wednesday evening，作时间状语，句子使用一般过去时，表示“地震”用an earthquake，表示“袭击了”用strike，动词使用过去式形式struck，表示“这座美丽的城市”用the beautiful city，作宾语，表示“对建筑物造成了巨大破坏”用cause great damage to the buildings，表示自然而然的结果，使用现在分词形式作结果状语。
7.答案：Even if/though he failed to catch the bus, he still made it to the destination on time.
解析：考查状语从句和短语。发生在过去应用一般过去时。表示“即使”，引导让步状语从句，应用even if或even though，主语为he;表示“未能...”短语为fail to do sth.;表示“赶上公交车”短语为catch the bus;主句主语为he;表示“还是，仍然”应用副词still;表示“到达”短语为make it to;表示“目的地”用名词the destination;表示“准时”短语为on time。
8.答案：It was not until I took part in various extra-curricular activities that I found it easy/not difficult to make friends.
解析：考查强调句。表示“直到…才”应用强调句:Itis/was not until +被强调部分+ that +其它部分;从句主语为I;表示“参加”短语为take part in;表示“各种课外活动”短语为various extra-curricular activities，为被强调部分;主句主语为I;表示“发现…”应用find it adj. to do sth.,it作形式宾语;表示“不难”可用形容词easy或not difficult;表示“交朋友”短语为make friends。发生在过去，应用一般过去时。
9.答案：If a problem seems too difficult for a certain country, then the global community may sometimes offer a solution.
解析：考查条件状语从句，时态，形容词和主谓一致。
10.答案：Informed on the phone that the flight had been cancelled, she set out for the train station immediately.
解析：动词inform和主语she之间构成被动关系,因此需用过去分词形式作状语;由句意可知,cancel需用过去完成时;出发去火车站set out for the train station,需注意set过去式的拼写.故填: Informed on the phone that the flight had been cancelled, she set out for the train station immediately.
三、阅读理解
11.答案：B
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中“When I was 25, I dreamed of crown (皇冠). That was the summer I made the shortlist for a female novel prize. The winner was to be announced at a televised event. I was very excited and imagined myself on TV, A crown would be on my head. And then in August of that year, the prize was cancelled for some reason. I was disappointed but still full of hope.(25岁时，我梦见了王冠。那年夏天，我进入了女性小说奖的候选名单。获胜者将在电视直播中宣布获胜者将在电视直播中宣布。我很兴奋，想象着自己上了电视，我的头上戴着一顶王冠。同年8月，由于某种原因，这个奖项被取消了。我很失望，但仍然充满希望。)”以及第二段“To me, writing has always been an exciting act, especially the early moments of creation. This excitement inspired me through years of writing. I published several books, and my sense of achievement grew, yet I was also flooded with rejection letters. Several adult novels that I worked on for years came to nothing.(对我来说，写作一直是一种令人兴奋的行为，尤其是在创作的早期。这种兴奋鼓舞了我多年的写作。我出版了几本书，我的成就感越来越强，但我也收到了大量的拒绝信。我写了几年的几本成人小说都无果而终。)”可知，作者出版了几本书，为自己是青少年作家而自豪，但是几本成人小说都无果而终，作者进入女性小说奖的候选名单，但是后来奖项取消，作者没能戴上获奖的王冠。故选B。
12.答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段“I had always known that my books weren’t going to make me rich, but I couldn’t help feeling disappointed that my writing career hadn’t become something more.(我一直都知道我的书不会让我变得富有，但我还是忍不住感到失望，因为我的写作生涯没有取得更大的成就)”可知，作者对她的写作生涯感到失望因为她在写作方面几乎没有进步。故选C。
13.答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第四段“I stopped trying to believe that writing was going to support me financially and then an unexpected thing happened: writing became hopeful again. My younger dreams of being a famous writer have given way to more middle-aged satisfactions: the children who tell me they read my books and liked them, my students who say they saw me in a local magazine. Small things are a new kind of hope.(我不再试图相信写作会给我带来经济上的支持，然后一件意想不到的事情发生了：写作又充满了希望。我年轻时想成为著名作家的梦想已经让位于中年人的满足感：孩子们告诉我，他们读过我的书，而且很喜欢，我的学生们说，他们在当地的杂志上看到了我。小事是一种新的希望)”可知，作者在第4段提到了孩子和她的学生是为了解释新的希望。故选A。
14.答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段“When I was 25, I dreamed of crown (皇冠).(25岁的时候，我梦想着王冠)”、倒数第二段中“My younger dreams of being a famous writer have given way to more middle-aged satisfactions: the children who tell me they read my books and liked them, my students who say they saw me in a local magazine. Small things are a new kind of hope.(我年轻时想成为著名作家的梦想已经让位于中年人的满足感：孩子们告诉我，他们读过我的书，而且很喜欢，我的学生们说，他们在当地的杂志上看到了我。小事是一种新的希望。)”以及最后一段“Recently, for my 50th birthday, I went to China with my friend. We were in a gift shop when a crown caught my eye. I bought it for myself, and wore it for my birthday party, just for fun.(最近，为了庆祝我的50岁生日，我和我的朋友去了中国。我们在礼品店时，一顶皇冠引起了我的注意。我给自己买了它，在我的生日聚会上戴着它，只是为了好玩)”可知，作者给自己买了顶王冠，因为她已经和她的梦想和解了。故选D。
四、阅读理解
答案：CFAGE
解析：15. 联系下文题。根据下文In view of this, it is significant for us to explore the benefits of lifelong learning.(有鉴于此,我们有必要探索终身学习的好处。)可知终身学习的必要性。因此C项"它不再仅仅是一种选择;这是必须的"符合语境。故选C。

答案：
My First Experience in Career
Last month, I had the privilege of participating in our school’s initiative, “My First Experience in Career.” It aimed to provide students like me with a glimpse into diverse professions.
My journey began at a local hospital, where I shadowed as a diligent nurse for a day. Witnessing her interactions with patients, meticulous care, and swift decision-making, I gained a deeper understanding of the immense responsibility and compassion required in this noble profession. It was an eye-opening experience that left me grateful for the healthcare workers who tirelessly save lives.
This practical experience transformed me, increasing my knowledge and igniting ambition. I ‘m thankful to our school for organizing such a meaningful program and excited for future opportunities.Unit 3 Sea Exploration（B卷能力提升）—高二英语人教版（2019）选择性必修第四册单元测试AB卷

三、阅读理解（共4小题，每小题5分）
For anyone still doubting the belief that our emotions impact our physical health, a new study from New Zealand should be able to settle the matter. It reports that the physical wounds of healthy seniors healed more quickly if they wrote about their most upsetting experiences.
This confirms the results of a 2010 study, and extends those findings to cover older adults—a group that is likely to suffer wounds (such as from surgery), and one with less access to other ways of lowering stress (such as exercise).
Reported in the journal Psychosomatic Medicine, a research team led by the University of Auckland’s Elizabeth Broadbent made a study featuring 50 healthy adults ranging in age from 64 to 97. They were asked to write for 20 minutes per day for three days on end.
Half were asked to write about the most upsetting experience in their life, describing their deepest thoughts, feelings, and emotions about the events, ideally not previously shared with others. The others were asked to write about their daily activities without mentioning emotions, opinions or beliefs.
Two weeks after the third day of writing, all participants received a standard 4mm skin biopsy (皮下活体组织检查) on their inner arm. The very tiny wounds caused by the biopsy were photographed regularly over the following days to determine the rate at which they healed.
On the 11th day after the biopsy, the wounds completely healed on 76.2 percent of those who had done the expressive writing. That was true of only 42.1 percent of those who had written about everyday activities.
“The biological and psychological mechanisms (机体) behind this effect remain unclear,” the researchers wrote, noting that those who had done the expressive writing did not report lower stress levels or fewer depressive symptoms than the others in the control group. Even if they weren’t consciously aware of feeling more relaxed or positive, the expressive writing appeared to have caused some sort of bodily reaction — probably involving their immune (免疫的) systems—that hastened their recovery.
11. What was the difference between the two groups of participants in the study
A. When they wrote. B. Where they wrote.
C. What they wrote about. D. How often they wrote.
12. According to the text, the experiment lasted_________.
A. about three days B. about ten days
C. about two weeks D. about a month
13. The underlined word “hastened” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to .
A. speeded B. showed C. limited D. ruined
14. What would be the best title of the text
A. Sharing with others can reduce stress
B. Skin biopsies are likely to cause wounds
C. Expressive writing heals physical wounds
D. Upsetting experiences impact our emotions
三、七选五（共5小题，每小题5分）
Life is an adventure, and going to college is one of the most exciting but challenging experiences for many people, especially international students. 15.___________ After one year of studying and adapting, here are my ideas for making American life easier.
Managing personal identification
16.___________
They’re essential records for your arrival and keep you safe in a new nation. At first, I was overwhelmed by the numerous pieces of paper. So I highly recommend that you have a separate worksheet to keep all your paperwork in one place.
Practicing English
Never stop practicing your English. For most international students, English is not their mother language. They will struggle in daily conversations, with foreign people in the very first weeks. 17.___________ You can watch: American TV shows, learn by hearing new vocabulary and try to talk with native people.
18.___________
When you first come to a new environment, you will feel lonely and homesick. To reduce loneliness, you should be open-minded and socially active. Meeting new friends will solve this issue. However, do not limit yourself by only having friends from your country, and try to hang out with other international newbies (新生).
Planning your career
Before attending any university, make sure you have a solid plan for your career path. Carefully map out your academic pathway. Get advice from your parents, acquaintances, or people in the course of study you’re interested in. In school, you should see your academic advisor monthly to get the latest updates about your courses and workshop events. 19.___________
A.Networking
B.Walking out of your comfort zone
C.Bring all the copies of your documents.
D.Always check that you are on the right track.
E.To avoid misunderstanding, you must make continuous efforts.
F.Much of what they communicate is dependent on how they manage their files.
G.When I first came to the US, I didn’t even know how to cross the road correctly.

That’s all. Thank you!
答案以及解析
一、语法填空
1.答案：which
解析：此处考查非限定性定语从句，先行词是 “The conclusion”，关系代词 “which” 在从句中作主语，指代先行词来进一步说明这个结论的相关情况，所以填 “which”。
2.答案：anxiety
解析：考查名词。句意:年轻人面临着生活中的许多诱惑和选择,这可能会导致焦虑。lead to中的to为介词,后面接名词或动名词,作宾语,所给词anxious为形容词,其名词形式为anxiety。故填anxiety。
3.答案：arrangement
解析：考查名词,句意:宴会的座位安排经过精心策划以避免任何冲突,设空处使用arrange的名词形式arrangement作主语,表示“安排、布置”,其为不可数名词。故填arrangement。
4.答案：have been admitted
解析：句子主语 “three of his four children” 与 “admit” 应是被动关系，即被北大录取。从语境看，强调过去到现在，需用现在完成时被动语态，其结构为 “have/has been + 过去分词”，主语复数，所以填 “have been admitted”。
5.答案：who
解析：考查定语从句。句意：然而，对于那些超重到危险程度的人来说，适当地减肥是非常重要的。此处为定语从句，先行词为those，指人，关系词在从句中作主语，应用关系代词who。故填who。
二、翻译句子
6.答案：The festival falls on the fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar every year and usually lasts for three days.
解析：考查动词短语。“该节日”可翻译为“the festival”，在句中作主语。fall on“落在”，这是一个习惯用法，用来描述事件发生的日期。该动词短语在句中作谓语动词。本句话描述客观事实，所以用一般现在时态。“每年农历六月初四”可翻译为“the fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar every year”。用and连列两个并列的动词在句中作谓语。“持续”可用动词“last”，在句中作并列谓语。“为期三天”可以翻译为“last for three days”。“通常”可以用副词“usually”。故翻译为The festival falls on the fourth day of the sixth month of the lunar calendar every year and usually lasts for three days.
7.答案：It's an honor to be here to share with you the impact that music has had on my life.
解析：考查固定短语、定语从句。表示“很荣幸”应to...s an honor to...结构，其中it为形式主语，真正的主语为to do不定式；表示“与某人分享某物”短语为share sth with sb；表示“对……的影响”短语on... an impact on...；“音乐”在句中作为先行词，后跟that引导的定语从句，故翻译为It's an honor to be here to share with you the impact that music has had on my life。
8.答案：It was his adventurous/thrill-seeking personality that inspired/motivated/encouraged his friends to try new things/try something new.
解析：考查强调句和动词时态。表示“正是……”使用强调句结构即it was…that...,句子表述过去事实,故使用一般过去时;表示“爱冒险的个性”用his adventurous thrill-seeking personality,使用形容词作定语;表示“激发某人去做某事"用inspire/motivate/encourage sb to do sth;表示“尝试新鲜事物”用try new things/try something new。故翻译为It was his adventurous/thrill-seeking personality that inspired/motivated/encouraged his friends to try new things/try something new。
9.答案：The room is filled with antiques collected by the owner from all over the world.
解析：考查时态和非谓语动词。表示“房间”应用the room,为特指,句首字母大写;表示“堆满了”应用动词短语be filed with,可用一般现在时,与主语保持主谓一致,be应变为is;表示“古董”对应名词antique,为集合名词,应用antiques;表示“收来的”用短语collected by,作非谓语动词,与逻辑主语antiques为被动关系;表示“主人”用the owner,表示特指;表示“从世界各地”应用介词短语from all over the world, 故翻译为The room is filled with antiques collected by the owner from all over the world.
10.答案：When we get along with others, we should learn to put ourselves in others’ shoes and be considerate of the difficulties of others.
解析：根据所给汉语,可知句子是when引导的时间状语从句,主句是祈使句,when引导的时间状语从句用一般现在时,主语we我们,是复数,be动词用are, considerate体贴的,体谅的,learn to do sth.学会做某事,think换位思考,others其他人,others'其他人的, difficulties困难,名词复数,when we get along with others当我们与他人相处时,故答案为When we get along with others, we should learn to think in others' shoes and be considerate to others' difficulties.
三、阅读理解
11.答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据文章第四段“Half were asked to write about the most upsetting experience in their life, describing their deepest thoughts, feelings, and emotions about the events, ideally not previously shared with others. The others were asked to write about their daily activities without mentioning emotions, opinions or beliefs.”可知，其中一半的人被要求写下他们生命中最难过的经历，描述他们内心最深处的想法、感受和对这些事件的情感，理想的情况是不要与他人分享。其他人被要求写下他们的日常活动，而不提及情绪、观点或信仰。可知参加测试的对象中有一半被要求写出他们最难受的经历，最深层的感受。另外一半被要求写出日常活动但是不要提到情绪方面的内容。由此可知，这两群人的要求是不一样的。故选C。
12.答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据三、五、六段中的“They were asked to write for 20 minutes per day for three consecutive (连续的) days.(他们被要求连续三天每天写作20分钟)”；“Two weeks after the third day of writing, all participants received a standard 4mm skin biopsy(皮下活体组织检查) on their inner arm.(在写作的第三天之后的两周，所有的参与者在他们的手臂内侧接受了一个标准的4mm皮肤活检)”；On the 11th day after the biopsy, the wounds completely healed on 76.2 percent of those who had done the expressive writing.(活检后的第11天，做过表达性书写的患者中，76.2%的人伤口完全愈合)可知，这项实验加起来大约是一个月的时间。故选D。
13.答案：A
解析：词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“On the 11th day after the biopsy, the wounds completely healed on 76.2 percent of those who had done the expressive writing. That was true of only 42.1 percent of those who had written about everyday activities.”可知，活检后的第11天，做过表达性书写的患者中，76.2%的人伤口完全愈合。在那些写日常活动的人中，只有42.1%的人是这样的。由此可知，被要求写出内心深层感受的人的伤口愈合得更快，这正可以说明精神对身体是有很大影响的。再根据划线词所在句“Even if they weren’t consciously aware of feeling more relaxed or positive, the expressive writing appeared to have caused some sort of bodily reaction — probably involving their immune (免疫的) systems — that hastened their recovery.”可知，即使他们没有意识到自己感觉更放松或更积极，表达性写作似乎已经引起了某种身体反应——可能涉及到他们的免疫系统--从而hastened他们的恢复。由此可知，在他们无意识的情况下，表达情绪的写作可以导致免疫系统的做出回应——加快伤口的恢复。由此推知，划线词与speeded“加速，加快”意义一致。故选A。
14.答案：C
解析：主旨大意题。根据文章主题段第一段“For anyone still doubting the belief that our emotions impact our physical health, a new study from New Zealand should be able to settle the matter. It reports that the physical wounds of healthy seniors healed more quickly if they wrote about their most upsetting experiences.”可知，对于仍然怀疑情绪会影响身体健康的人来说，新西兰的一项新研究应该能解决这个问题。报告指出，如果健康老年人写下他们最痛苦的经历，他们身体上的伤口愈合得更快。由此可知，本文主要是关于表达内心感受的写作可以帮助老年人很快地愈合，故Expressive writing heals physical wounds(表达写作能够治愈身体伤痛)适合做本文最佳标题。故选C。
四、七选五
答案：GCEAD

五、书面表达
答案：
Dear fellow students,
Have you been using ChatGPT I have been using it since it was released. As a fan of it, I interact with it a lot, seeking better ideas, different solutions and various learning materials. Frankly speaking, ChatGPT, this powerful and interesting chatbot, makes for my study. It provides support, guidance and even motivation, enabling me to work autonomously and efficiently. But however intelligent ChatGPT is, it is just a tool developed to serve us. As students, we should never depend too much on it, let alone be replaced or dominated by it in our study. We should use it wisely. Hopefully, we all will embrace such AI technology as ChatGPT, use them properly and get the most out of them.
That’s all. Thank you!
