2025届安徽省蚌埠市高三下学期第二次质检英语试题
一、阅读理解(本大题共5小题)
The summer vacation season is an especially good time for a family farm stay in the U.S. because the weather is nice and farms around the country are filled with activities. Here are four of the best farm vacations where you can connect with nature and learn about farm life.
Stone and Thistle Farm
East Meredith, New York
Farm stay activities on Stone and Thistle Farm include grooming (刷洗) horses, milking goats, collecting eggs and holding baby chicks. Additional hands-on field and kitchen workshops are educational and family-friendly experiences focused on farming or cooking experiences (these are separate from the farm vacation and must be booked in groups of five or more).
BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch
Cat Spring, Texas
Situated in a 350-acre area, BlissWood Bed and Breakfast Ranch is a working farm. Horseback riding, ranch games, fishing and feeding tours with farm animals are all part of the guest experiences. Another highlight is the safari experience, a guided tour where you can get close to wildlife animals.
Tabula Rasa Farms
Carlton, Oregon
Set among the rolling hills of Oregon’s Willamette Valley, Tabula Rasa Farms lets families spread out and enjoy life on a farm. The two-bedroom, three-bathroom farmhouse comes with a fully equipped kitchen, washer and dryer. In summer, there’s a swimming hole behind the house along with many hiking trails. A short walk away is the working farm, with animals such as cows, pigs and ducks.
Homecoming Ranch
Nelsonville, Ohio
Farm stays at Homecoming Ranch honor both the livestock (家畜) and the land by sharing the working ranch’s sustainable and regenerative agricultural practices with guests. The 98-acre farm is home to Scottish Highland goats and chickens. Farm tours and interesting activities such as milking goats and collecting eggs and strawberries are a fun way to facilitate learning for kids.

Ever the innovator to entertain its customers, this Masschetusettes cafe recently came up with a novel attraction for its customers. “Walk in and give us your BEST dance moves for 5 seconds,” reads a sign displayed on the entrance door. If you do so, you can get a cup of coffee for free.
The unexpected dance venue Coffee Milano, which serves the most delicious coffee, drinks, breakfast and lunch all day long, seven days a week.
The response to Coffee Milano’s promotion was electric, with multiple customers eager to show off their best dance moves. “It was fun, energetic and smiley,” says Joshua Rashid, the cafe owner of the small family-owned business. “Funny dances can really improve customers’ mood.”
It’s no secret that acting happy, moving and music can get you feeling better, even if it’s a bit unnatural at first. Brainly, a knowledge-sharing community, discusses the so-called “Facial feedback effect”. This is documented in studies showing that forcing a smile can still boost mood and happiness levels. This is likely because when people smile, their brains release something that helps to reduce stress.
On November 23, 2024, a video of the dancing customers became a hit online, amassing an astonishing 7.6 million views online since it was posted.
“We just thought it was going to be a small thing for the people that come in every day,” admits Oliver Svensen, social media director at Coffee Milano. She says the huge success of the campaign is due to the vicarious (间接感受到的) pleasure of seeing people feeling happy and expressing themselves, rather than the free drink alone.
“I am still processing this. I didn’t realize the power of the Internet,” says Rashid. “More customers are coming in and dancing.” He plans to make this joyful event a monthly fixture. “It was amazing and fun. The customers kept asking when the next one would be!” he says.
4.The sign at the entrance can be replaced by “______”.
A.Free coffee is just a dance away! B.Who will be the best dancer
C.Smile for a cup of free coffee! D.Would you like to drink coffee
5.What is the function of paragraph 4
A.To offer some advice. B.To support a claim.
C.To introduce a new topic. D.To doubt a common belief.
6.What does Oliver Svensen mention about the campaign
A.The social purposes of launching it. B.The efforts to boost it on social media.
C.The factors contributing to its success. D.The practical approaches to expanding it.
7.What can be known about Rashid
A.He is astonished at the popularity of the campaign.
B.He plans to come up with more similar joyful events.
C.He initially had little confidence in the taste of coffee.
D.He first got the idea from a discussion on the Internet.
Playgrounds have been made significantly safer. There are soft surfaces to play on and all the dangerous play equipment like tall metal slides where children jumped on and off at high speeds have been replaced by much safer plastic swings and climbing structures.
Has removing the risk also removed the fun and the challenge In Amsterdam, the Dutch capital, local officials believe so. That’s why they want to replace boring playgrounds with spaces that allow kids to play with water, climb, sword-fight with sticks, wrestle and fall.
“The inspiration is that children are hardly moving, which is a huge problem,” says Rob Hofland, one of the officials. “They are attracted to a more engaging screen, sitting still for hours. We are learning about how unhealthy it is that the Dutch — the sitting champions of Europe — are so inactive. Things need to change and it starts young.”
Taking risks is children’s nature. Babies start to pull themselves up on furniture even before they can stand. Older children are introduced to a large range of activities that come with potential risk like working with tools.
“Risky play is really a fundamental way for children to figure out the world,” says Mariana Brussoni, a professor at the University of British Columbia. “Engaging in risky play helps them to develop self-confidence, resilience, executive functioning abilities, as well as risk assessment.”
While it is still parents’ job to keep kids safe in playgrounds, it is important to make informed choices before prohibiting risky play. That’s why parents should practice what Brussoni calls the 17-second rule. So instead of telling your child not to climb a tree so high or run so fast, take 17 seconds and observe how your child is doing and what they are able to do.
“This will provide your children the opportunity to figure out for themselves what’s comfortable and what they can do,” says Brussoni, adding that the most important thing you can do is get out of the way and just let children play.
8.What are the current playgrounds like
A.They are challenging for kids. B.They are basically free of risks.
C.They are full of funny elements. D.They are tailored to risk-takers’ nature.
9.Why does Rob Hofland want to bring back risk play
A.To motivate children to become more active.
B.To obey the latest health guidelines in Europe.
C.To train potential champions in the sports field.
D.To inspire children to invent smarter devices.
10.What does Brussoni stress in paragraph 5
A.Requirements for tackling risks. B.Features of predictable risks.
C.Ways to engage in risky play. D.Benefits risky play can bring.
11.What does Brussoni advise parents to do
A.Stop observing their adventurous kids. B.Act as a role model for less brave kids.
C.Allow their kids to explore their potential. D.Prevent their kids from doing risky sports.
In the history of life on Earth, organisms have relied on the light of the sun, the moon and stars to find their way and schedule their lives. While the emergence of electric lighting in the late 19th century may have been aboonto humans, it has done much harm to the natural world. Among the negative impacts of artificial light at night (ALAN), light pollution leads migrating birds to cities with terrible consequences, contributes to the alarming decline in insect populations, and convinces sea turtles to climb away from the water instead of towards it.
Now, a new study from the University of Plymouth adds another finding about how ALAN is affecting coral reefs (珊瑚礁): Light pollution from coastal cities can trick them into spawning (产卵) outside of the appropriate times when they would normally reproduce.
Using a combination of light pollution data and spawning observations, researchers are able to show for the first time that corals exposed to ALAN are spawning one to three days earlier and closer to the full moon compared to those on unlighted reefs.
Corals release eggs on certain nights of the year, guided by lunar cycles. If corals are spawning on different nights, inspired to do so by the confusion of light pollution, it could reduce the likelihood of coral eggs being fertilized and surviving to produce new adult corals that help reefs to recover.
“Coral reefs are among the most biodiverse and economically important ecosystems on the planet. Mass bleaching (白化) events caused by climate change, habitat destruction, fisheries, water pollution and other disturbances have reduced coral reefs substantially since the 1950s,” these worried researchers write. “The complete loss of corals is anticipated over the next 100 years.”
“If we want to reduce the harm ALAN is causing, we can delay switching on night-time lighting in coastal regions to ensure the natural dark period between sunset and moonrise that guides spawning remains complete,” says lead author Dr. Thomas Davies.
Obviously, light pollution is one of the least complicated pollution sources to fix. Solving plastic pollution and greenhouse gas emissions will take a humanity-wide sea change to fix, but light pollution We just need to turn off the lights when necessary. That can make a significant difference to the natural world.
12.What does the underlined word “boon” in paragraph 1 most probably mean
A.Blessing.
B.Demonstration.
C.Trend.
D.Crisis.
13.How does ALAN affect corals
A.It blinds new adult corals.
B.It misleads them into spawning.
C.It keeps them from reproducing.
D.It encourages coral egg hunting.
14.Why do the researchers feel worried
A.Corals are exposed to moonlight.
B.Corals are likely to become extinct.
C.Corals have lost their ecological value.
D.Corals cause disturbances to fisheries.
15.What is the main purpose of the text
A.To analyze the impact of human activity.
B.To emphasize the significant role of corals.
C.To reveal the root sources of corals' decline.
D.To call for action to reduce light pollution.
Photography is more than an art form; it can also serve as a powerful therapeutic (治疗) tool. Photo Therapy and therapeutic photography are gaining recognition for their potential to support emotional processing, self-expression, and mental health. 16 .
Photo Therapy refers to the structured use of photographs in a professional counseling (咨询) setting. Therapists guide clients through interactions with personal images, including family photographs, self-portraits, or even abstract visuals, to explore emotions and experiences. The therapeutic process might include interpreting the symbolic meaning of a photo, discussing how it makes the client feel, or using it to explore relationships. 17 , as photographs can act as mediators (中介), allowing them to touch on challenging topics from a more comfortable distance and helping them uncover feelings and memories.
Unlike Photo Therapy, which requires a trained professional, therapeutic photography is an independent or group activity that anyone can engage in to support mental health. 18 . As noted on the Photo Therapy Centre website, capturing images encourages mindfulness, as it draws individuals into the present moment and helps them focus on their environment.
The act of creating can also help people process their emotions and tell their stories. 19 , which allows individuals to share feelings they may struggle to express in words. Engaging in photography can build confidence and self-awareness, giving individuals a sense of achievement as they create something visible and meaningful.
Whether guided by a therapist or pursued independently, photography is an accessible way to support wellbeing. 20 . For those looking to explore their emotions or seek new paths to self-discovery, picking up a camera might be the first step toward a brighter and healthier future.
A.These approaches are closely related
B.Some clients tend to hide their memories
C.It bridges the gap between art and mental health
D.Using a photo for conversations gives clients a sense of safety
E.A famous blog highlights how photography can serve as a visual journal
F.This approach involves taking photographs or creating photo-based projects
G.While they sound similar, they have distinct applications that make them uniquely beneficial

47.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。
Lucy touched the tiny gray whiskers (胡须) on a plastic mouse and her fingers were trembling with excitement. “Ms. Thompson will think it’s real!” she whispered to Mia, recalling how their art teacher had nearly dropped her coffee last month when a mouse ran across the schoolyard.
Mia adjusted a mouse’s tail, saying, “But, what if she gets too scared ”
“Relax!” said Lucy. “It’s for April Fools’ Day! She laughed when we drew cat ears on her hat last week. This is just funnier!”
On April Fools’ Day, Lucy and Mia carefully placed some plastic mice under Ms. Thompson’ s sketchbook (素描册) in the art room before Ms. Thompson entered for a class. The girls were looking forward to witnessing the funny moment when Ms. Thompson saw the surprise. Soon Ms. Thompson stepped into the art room and greeted the students cheerfully. The two girls got excited and their eyes kept track of Ms. Thompson until she reached out for her sketchbook. The two girls looked at each other, waiting to together shout out “April Fools!”.
The scream filled the art room the moment Ms. Thompson spotted the plastic mice. Before the girls shouted, they saw Ms. Thompson standing frozen with a pale face. Other students burst into laughter but soon kept silent when they noticed their teacher’s shaking hands. A boy student rushed to pick up the plastic mice and throw them away.
Lucy’s stomach dropped. That wasn’t the playful reaction they’d expected. Ms. Thompson kept cleaning her glasses nervously and her cheerful voice was reduced to whispers. When Ms. Thompson dismissed the class early, leaving her sketchbook open, Lucy and Mia exchanged guilty glances (瞥).
During lunch break, Mia and Lucy had a talk. “We went too far,” Mia said. Lucy nodded with guilt. “We have to do something!” Mia said firmly. Lucy agreed, but she didn’t know what to do.

【分析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了今年春节人工智能带来的惊喜。
【解析】36.考查名词。句意:今年的春节是一场人工智能驱动的惊喜庆典,每一项创新都带来了兴奋和惊奇。本空作with的宾语,用innovative的名词innovation“创新”,根据each可知,用单数形式,故填innovation。
37.考查非谓语动词。句意:与人类表演者一起,机器人完成了传统民间舞蹈秧歌,以其完美的动作给观众留下了深刻的印象。本句谓语为completed,此处为非谓语动词,且the robots与impress“给……留下深刻印象”为主动关系,应用现在分词,作状语。故填impressing。
38.考查定语从句或连词。句意:这段激动人心的表演视频很快在社交媒体上疯传,惊讶的网友们称这群机器人为“最敬业的舞蹈团队”,并对文化遗产与未来科技的完美结合给予了高度评价。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是Videos,关系词代替先行词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。或者可以理解为本空连接前后两个并列关系的句子,用连词and连接,故填where或and。
39.考查时态。句意同上。speak highly of“高度评价”。本空与called并列,为and后句子的谓语,根据called可知,本句描述过去的动作,时态用一般过去时,谓语用动词speak的过去式,故填spoke。
40.考查非谓语动词。句意:受邀参加晚会的机器人舞者属于杭州宇树科技公司。本句谓语为belong to,此处为非谓语动词,且invite“邀请”与被修饰词The robotic dancers之间是被动关系,应用过去分词形式,作定语,故填invited。
41.考查形容词。句意:Unitree H1机器人配备了人工智能驱动的全身运动控制技术,能够提供最大360N·m的关节扭矩。空处作表语,应填形容词,capability的形容词是capable“有能力的”,be capable of“能够”,故填capable。
42.考查介词。句意:凭借其丰富的知识、令人信服的表达和无限的想象力,DeepSeek吸引了各个年龄段的人,成为终极的“聊天伙伴”。此处表示“凭借”,用介词with,句首单词,首字母应大写,故填With。
43.考查非谓语动词。句意:“DeepSeek让我有可能获取更多信息,”一位退休人员说,他在儿子的强烈推荐下下载了这款开源工具。“make it+adj.+for sb. to do sth.”是固定句型,意为“使某人做某事是……的”,其中it是形式宾语,本空用动词access“获取,访问,存取”的不定式,作真正的宾语。故填to access。
44.考查冠词。句意同上。这里特指前面提到的DeepSeek这个开源工具,所以用定冠词the来修饰 open-resource tool。故填the。
45.考查副词。句意:无论是在庙会还是旅游景点,人工智能正越来越多地融入人们的日常生活,取代服务员和教练,搬运重物,送货,甚至协助登山者。空处修饰动词integrating,应用副词increasingly“越来越多地”,作状语。故填increasingly。
46.【答案】Dear Alan,
I’m writing to tell you an exciting event I attended last Friday — the annual English Singing Competition held at our school. About 20 contestants from different grades participated, each showcasing their unique voices. The crowd cheered wildly, and the judges provided encouraging feedback, highlighting both vocal skills and emotional expression.
What impressed me most was Lily’s performance of You Raise Me Up, a well-known English song. Her soft yet powerful voice with emotions filled the competition hall and reminded me of my parents’ love for me.
How I wish you’d been there! Let me know about your school events!
Yours,
Li Hua

47.【答案】
An idea struck Lucy as she saw cat drawings in Ms. Thompson’s sketchbook. The two girls decided to turn those plastic mice into a lovely cat. They found the abandoned plastic mice and worked immediately. After finishing their artwork, they wrote a note reading, “We’re sorry for what we have done. Those mice have been eaten by the cat. That’s a punishment for them. Punish us if you’re still angry. From Lucy and Mia.” After school, the two girls put the lovely plastic cat and the note beside Ms. Thompson’s sketchbook.
In the next art class, Ms. Thompson noticed the plastic cat and the note beside her sketchbook. Lucy and Mia held their breath as Ms. Thompson examined the plastic cat and read the note. Suddenly, Ms. Thompson chuckled — a warm sound like wind chimes. Holding up the plastic cat and displaying it to the whole class, Ms. Thompson announced, “Brilliant recycling!” Applause exploded in the art room. Lucy felt Mia squeeze her hand as Ms. Thompson winked at them. The earlier fear in Ms. Thompson’s eyes was replaced by twinkling pride.
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了Lucy和Mia在愚人节捉弄艺术老师Ms. Thompson,放置假老鼠却导致老师极度恐慌的故事。她们原以为会制造欢乐,却未料到后果严重,使老师情绪失控,意识到玩笑过火,从而感到内疚并决定采取行动弥补。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Lucy在汤普森女士的速写本上看到猫的画时,突然想到了一个主意。”可知,第一段可描写Lucy和Mia利用Ms. Thompson的素描册中的猫图来制作一个塑料猫,并写道歉信,表达她们的歉意。
②由第二段首句内容“在下一节美术课上,Ms. Thompson注意到了她素描本旁边的塑料猫和便条。”可知,第二段可描写Ms. Thompson看到塑料猫和道歉信后的反应,她不仅没有生气,反而赞赏了她们的创意,并展示给全班同学,气氛变得轻松愉快。
2.续写线索: Lucy和Mia看到猫图——将塑料老鼠变成猫——写道歉信——Ms. Thompson看到塑料猫和道歉信——表现出理解和赞赏——气氛变得轻松
