Here comes a time for every family when the tables turn and the parent has to answer to the
child. Mine came recently when my wife and I visited our son in Los Angeles.
“Dad, don’t leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel admonished on
our first night. All right, I figured, this is California, where drought is a concern. But then more
followed. Not to leave my awkward walking shoes sitting out, and did I even need such ugly
footwear Don’t wear a neck warmer when walking the dogs in the morning - it will warm up
when we get to the park. And do you have to take a shower before we drive to Topanga
At the beginning, I wondered how I raised such a bossy child. But I recalled my own words
when he was young: “Someday, you’ ll have your own home and can live however you want.
Until then, do as we say.” Now,it was payback time.
I remembered being angry at my own father’s commands growing up, how he always tidied
my desk or came into my room at dusk to close the windows. And so I smilingly followed
Nathaniel’ s nagging (唠叨).
On our last afternoon, we were walking along ElMatador Beach and hit an extended patch
of rocks - clearly the end of the line, I thought. Nathaniel wouldn’t hear of it and encouraged me
to walk across one largest one to the next, patiently telling me where to place my arthritic (关节炎
的) feet and hands as ocean waves came close. I was terrified, but after a couple hundred yards we
eventually reached a fresh sandy beach.
“You did it! I’m really proud,” he said, smiling, as if I’d just learned to ride a bike. It was
then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood.
4.What does the underlined word “admonished” in paragraph 2 mean
A.Warned gently but firmly. B.Explained loudly but lovingly.
C.Announced officially and clearly. D.Inspired deeply and indirectly.
5.Why did the author refer to his father
A.For memory. B.For reflection. C.For encouragement. D.For comparison.
6.What was the writer’s attitude towards his son at last
A.Annoyed. B.Regretful. C.Appreciative. D.Unsatisfied.
7.What might be the best title of the passage
A.The Role Switch: Parent to Pupil B.The Bossy Son: Nathaniel’s Takeover
C.The Beach Challenge: Crossing the Rocks D.The Power of Words: Nagging to Change
There are millions — possibly billions — of ponds (池塘).Yet for a century or so, they are
poorly understood and scientists have paid them very little attention. This neglect (忽视) might
not have mattered if it were not for increasing evidence that ponds are extremely important
habitats for wildlife.
Ponds are being shown more bio-diverse than rivers or lakes. Interestingly, this seems to be
partly due to the small size of ponds, which allows them to have a wide range of conditions. The
community in a pond with clear water will be very different to that in a nearby seasonal pond
made cloudy by farm animals. Ponds show far greater variation than rivers and streams, as
flowing water tends to equalize water chemistry.
公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
So why have we ignored such a vital part of the natural world A key reason appears to be
the bias (偏见) we humans have where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that
important. Rather than study ponds, scientists in the past typically headed for the largest lake or
river they could find.
Most of us also devalue ponds because we assume they are artificial habitats: we look at the
human-made examples around us and don’t realize that these waters have a deeply ancient origin.
In our new book Ponds, Pools and Puddles, we show that ponds have clearly existed on Earth as
long as there has been land and water and the geological record shows they have been a constant
presence.
Now, views are taking on new shapes. Last year, the Ramsar Convention, an international
agreement, introduced a proposal on small wetlands, including ponds, giving crucial recognition
to them. And the European Union-funded PONDER FUL project is gathering data on Europe’s
ponds.
In a world where freshwater faces big challenges, creating and protecting ponds provides a
ray of hope: a piece of natural ecological (生态的 ) engineering we can easily achieve to help
support one of the most threatened bits of the environment.
8.What may contribute to the biodiversity of ponds
A.The nearby animals. B.The constant temperature water.
C.Their diverse conditions. D.Their regularly changing conditions.
9.What caused ponds to be neglected
A.People’s love for nature. B.Insufficient ponds for research.
C.People’s mistaken belief of ponds. D.Lacking scientific research methods.
10.Why is “PONDERFUL project” mentioned
A.To promote the Ramsar Convention.
B.To prepare for the research on ponds
C.To highlight the importance of small wetlands.
D.To show the changing attitudes towards ponds.
11.What can we conclude from the last paragraph
A.Penny wise, pound foolish. B.A small key opens a big door.
C.Small streams make great rivers D.A bird in the hand is worth two in the bush.
Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human cognition (认知) What about our
body Is it possible for thought and behaviour to originate from somewhere other than our brain
Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition (EC) ask similar questions. The EC theory suggests
our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-solving.
If you think about it for a moment, it makes total sense. When you smell something good or
hear amusing sounds, certain emotions are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses
to understand the world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs— they don’t
feel sad, they’ re just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers’ heartbeats
and this has a calming effect. In the real world, they cry when they’ re cold and then get hugged.
That way, they start to associate being warm with being loved.
Understandably, theorists have been arguing for years and still disagree on whether the
brain is the nerve centre that operates the rest of the body. Older Western philosophers and
公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
mainstream language researchers believe this is fact, while EC theory holds the view that the brain
and body are working together as an organic supercomputer, processing everything and forming
your reactions.
Further studies have backed up the mind-body interaction, In one experiment, test subjects
were asked to judge people after being handed a hot or a cold drink. They all made warm
evaluations when their fingertips perceived warmth rather than coolness. And it works the other
way too. In another study. subjects’ fingertip temperatures were measured after being “included”
in or “rejected” from a group task. Those who were included felt physically warmer.
For further proof, we can look at the metaphors (比喻) that we use without even thinking.
A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one with a soft heart and someone who
is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described as solid as a rock. And this kind of
metaphorical use is common across languages.
Now that you have the knowledge of mind-body interaction, why not put the EC theory in
our daily life Just give it a shot!
12.According to the author, what is the significance of EC
A.It brings us closer to the truth in human cognition.
B.It offers a clearer picture of the shape of human brain.
C.It reveals the major role of the mind in human cognition.
D.It improves our understanding of the origin of psychology.
13.Where does the newborns’ understanding of their surroundings start from
A.Their personal looks. B.Their mental needs.
C.Their inner emotions. D.Their physical feelings.
14.What does the author intend to prove by using the metaphors in Paragraph 5
A.Human speech is alive with metaphors.
B.Human senses have effects on thinking.
C.Human language is shaped by visual images.
D.Human emotions are often compared to natural materials.
15.Which of the following situations is NOT the usage of EC in our daily life
A.If you are angry, think twice before action.
B.If you are cold, warm up before making any interpersonal decisions.
C.If the baby is crying hard, gentle touch from mom will calm him a bit.
D.If your friend is having a bad day, a warm cup of tea will give her a flash of pleasure.
Building emotional strength is an empowering journey that can lead to a thriving (繁茂的), more
satisfying life. 16 The good news is that it is never too late to develop a strong
mind.Develop your self-confidence
Confidence is key when becoming emotionally stronger. 17 When something bad happens,
remind yourself that you have the ability to overcome this obstacle, whatever it may be. You can
draw strength and courage from knowing that you have made it through tough times, and you can
do it again.Learn to embrace uncertainty.
Nobody likes uncertainty. It is the cause of a lot of emotional trouble. Being unable to live with
uncertainty can make you to constantly worried, avoid uncertain situations, and become overly
公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
reliant on others’ reassurance. 18 You can develop your emotional strength by practicing
accepting uncertainty.See criticism as an opportunity.
Most of us hear the smallest criticism and simply fall apart. 19 Criticism — as long
as it’s constructive — is encouragement. Their advice allow you to progress and move forward.
These are important components of a strong mind, and when you develop this skill, you will find
that you start to embrace criticism.
20
This is about how you become your own cheerleader and build up your confidence. It
doesn’t even have to be anything major, but just remind yourself of little things you do well and
have achieved. Regularly practicing this does wonders for developing a stronger mind and
eventually, it will happen without you realizing.
All in all, the pursuit of a strong mind will not always go perfectly, but the tip is to make
small positive steps day by day.
A.Positive self-talk.
B.Believe in yourself.
C.The question is how we can turn into mentally strong individuals.
D.The goal of developing emotional strength is progress, not perfection.
E.That is because it will help you feel more in control of your situations.
F.Instead of seeing it as a setback, view it as a chance to get better.
G.However, it is also an unavoidable fact of human life.

How much do you know about Chinese oil-paper umbrellas They are not just tools to keep
people away from rain or sunlight, 36 works of art with rich cultural meaning in China. The
first oil-paper umbrellas appeared during Eastern Han Dynasty (25-220). Later, they were brought
overseas to Japan and ancient Korea during the Tang Dynasty (618-907), 37 is why they
were known as “Tang umbrellas”.
It takes quite a lot of time and effort to make a traditional Chinese oil-paper umbrella 38
hand.For example, in Fenshui township in-Luzhou, Sichuar-Province, craftsmen must complete
more than 90 step and use over 100 different tools 39 (create) a single handmade oil-paper
umbrella. This ancient craft, 40 (recognize) as a National Intangible Cultural Heritage,
remains a wonder of human ingenuity.
Since the appearance of modern mechanical umbrellas, traditional oil-paper umbrellas have
suffered from declining sales, while 41 number of craftsmen has been on the decrease.

intangible cultural heritages in 2008, things have been improving.
In recent years, they 43 (experience) a boom, winning over millennials and fashion
enthusiasts alike. Despite their renewed 44 (popular), the the craft faces threats. Aging

revival mirrors a much 45 (widespread) movement to rediscover China’s intangible cultural
heritage.

47.阅读下面的材料,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
。
I used to be a lonely girl sitting at the back of the classroom. Having failed the college
entrance exams and changed schools twice, I seldom smiled. Every day I would sit at the desk,
staring into textbooks and exercises, motionless and heavy-hearted. However, my classmates were
in a different picture. They were playing, laughing and chatting delightedly. Besides, I hated it
when they were always answering the teachers’ questions, loudly and confidently. Obviously, I
had no friends in this fiercely competitive class.
Life is harder for senior students. Hardly does a day go by without exercises or tests. Every
time when the scores came out mine wouldn’t be the first or second but last. I was especially tired
of the endless exercises and exams, which I seemingly would never do well in. I was under a lot of
pressure, feeling like a fish being fried in a pan.
Hanging over me was a dark cloud. The only dim light came from Mr. Smith. Every time I
stepped into the classroom, he welcomed me with a warm smile; every time my gaze began to
wander over the classroom or stare out of the window, his caring eyes would draw me back to his
class. Besides, he was the only teacher who invited me to the office, talking about my studies and
scores. I remembered when I came out of his office, I felt refreshed believing that I could work
harder.
I was feeling everything was changing for the better. I prepared hard for the final exam of
the first semester, desiring to prove that I was not the last one. So before Mr. Smith told us the test
result, I was expecting something good in store for me.
But I was still the last one in the class. A burst of sadness and shame consuming me, I was
heartbroken.
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。
Right at that moment, Mr. Smith invited me to his office.

趣的是,这似乎部分是由于池塘的规模小,这使得它们有广泛的条件。)”可知,池塘比河
流或湖泊有更丰富多样性的部分原因是池塘规模太小,但这种小的规模使得它们拥有有各
种各样的条件,由此可知,池塘多样化的条件促成了池塘的生物多样性。故选 C 项。
9.细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A key reason appears to be the bias (偏见) we humans have
where we assume that if something is small, it can’t be all that important.(一个关键的原因似乎

公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
工程,帮助保护环境中最受威胁的部分之一。)”可知,淡水面临巨大的挑战,可以通过建
造和保护池塘提供一线希望,这是一项可以轻松实现的自然生态工程,但却能在保护环境
中起到重要的作用,由此可推断,“小钥匙开大门”即“用较小的力量或手段达到较大的效果
或目的”的意义与本段的讲述的内容吻合。故选 B 项。
【答案】12.A 13.D 14.B 15.A
【分析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了心理学家的一项 EC 理论表明,我们不是只有大脑
负责人类的认知,我们的身体也负责思考或者解决问题。更准确的说思想塑造身体,身体
同等程度地塑造思想。
【解析】12.推理判断题。根据第一段“Is it true that our brain alone is responsible for human
cognition (认知) What about our body Is it possible for thought and behaviour to originate from
somewhere other than our brain Psychologists who study Embodied Cognition (EC) ask similar
questions. The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for thinking or problem-
solving.( 只有我们的大脑才负责人类的认知,这是真的吗?那我们的身体呢?思想和行为
是否可能起源于大脑以外的其他地方?研究具身认知(Embodied Cognition, EC)的心理
学家也提出了类似的问题。EC 理论认为我们的身体也负责思考或解决问题。)”可知,文章
开头提出关于人类认知仅由大脑负责还是身体也有作用的疑问,引出具身认知(EC)理论,
该理论认为身体也对思考和解决问题有责任。接着通过新生儿感知世界、实验以及语言中
的隐喻等方面来阐述大脑和身体相互作用的观点。所以 EC 理论让我们更接近人类认知的
真相。故选 A 项。
13.细节理解题。根据第二段中“When you smell something good or hear amusing sounds,
certain emotions are awakened. Think about how newborns use their senses to understand the
world around them. They don’t have emotions so much as needs— they don’t feel sad, they’ re
just hungry and need food. Even unborn babies can feel their mothers’ heartbeats and this has a
calming effect. In the real world, they cry when they’ re cold and then get hugged. That way, they
start to associate being warm with being loved.( 当你闻到好东西或听到有趣的声音时,某些
情绪会被唤醒。想想新生儿如何用他们的感官来理解周围的世界。他们没有情感,而是有
需求——他们不会感到悲伤,他们只是饿了,需要食物。即使是未出生的婴儿也能感受到
母亲的心跳,这有镇静作用。在现实世界里,他们会在冷的时候哭,然后被拥抱。这样,
他们就开始把温暖和被爱联系起来。)”可知,新生儿通过身体的感觉,如饥饿、寒冷等感
知来理解周围世界。故选 D 项。
14.推理判断题。根据第五段中“A kind and sympathetic person is frequently referred to as one
with a soft heart and someone who is very strong and calm in difficult situations is often described
as solid as a rock. And this kind of metaphorical use is common across languages.( 一个善良和
富有同情心的人经常被形容为一个心软的人,而一个在困难的情况下非常坚强和冷静的人
经常被形容为坚如磐石。这种隐喻的用法在各种语言中都很常见。)”可知,第五段提到我
们常用的比喻,如用“柔软的心”形容善良有同情心的人,用“坚如磐石”形容在困难中坚强
冷静的人。结合前文提到的身体感觉会影响思维和判断,这里通过比喻说明人类的感觉对
思维有影响。故选 B 项。
15.推理判断题。根据第一段中“The EC theory suggests our body is also responsible for
thinking or problem-solving.( EC 理论认为我们的身体也负责思考或解决问题)”以及第三段中
“Older Western philosophers and mainstream language researchers believe this is fact, while EC
公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
theory holds the view that the brain and body are working together as an organic supercomputer,
processing everything and forming your reactions.( 较老的西方哲学家和主流语言研究人员认
为这是事实,而 EC 理论认为大脑和身体作为一个有机的超级计算机一起工作,处理一切
并形成你的反应)”可知,B 选项“如果你冷,在做任何人际决策前先暖和起来”,符合文章
中提到的身体感觉(冷)会影响思维(人际决策);C 选项“如果婴儿哭得厉害,妈妈温柔
的触摸会让他平静一点”,体现了身体接触对婴儿情绪的影响,符合身体和思维的相互作用;
D 选项“如果你的朋友心情不好,一杯热茶会给她带来一丝愉悦”,说明身体感觉(喝热茶)
对情绪(愉悦)有影响。而 A 选项“如果你生气,行动前要三思”,只是强调情绪下要冷静
思考,没有体现身体和思维的相互作用,不符合 EC 理论在日常生活中的应用。故选 A 项。

【解析】16.前文“Building emotional strength is an empowering journey that can lead to a

旅程。后文“The good news is that it is never too late to develop a strong mind.( 好消息是,培
养坚强的头脑永远不会太晚。)”说的是培养强大的心智永远都不晚。C 选项“The question is

键。)”指出自信在变得情感更强大方面非常重要。后文“When something bad happens,

事情发生时,提醒自己你有能力克服这个障碍,不管它是什么。)”指出当面临困境时要相
信自己有能力克服障碍。E 选项“That is because it will help you feel more in control of your
situations.(那是因为它会帮助你感觉对自己的处境更有掌控力。)”承上启下,阐述了自信很
重要的原因,“it”指代前文的 “confidence”,符合语境。故选 E 项。
18.前文“Nobody likes uncertainty. It is the cause of a lot of emotional trouble. Being unable to
live with uncertainty can make you to constantly worried, avoid uncertain situations, and become
overly reliant on others’ reassurance.(没有人喜欢不确定性。这是很多情感问题的起因。不能
生活在不确定性中会让你不断担心,避免不确定的情况,并变得过度依赖他人的安慰。)”
阐述了人们不喜欢不确定性以及它带来的问题。G 选项“However, it is also an unavoidable
fact of human life.(然而,这也是人类生活中不可避免的事实。)”与上文构成转折关系,指出
虽然不确定性有不好的影响,但它不可避免,“it”指代“uncertainty”。故选 G 项。
19.前文“Most of us hear the smallest criticism and simply fall apart.(我们大多数人听到最小的
批评就会崩溃。)”指出大多数人听到一点批评就会崩溃。后文“Criticism — as long as it’ s
constructive — is encouragement. Their advice allow you to progress and move forward.(批评—
—只要是建设性的——就是鼓励。他们的建议会让你进步和前进。)”指出只要是有建设性
的批评就是鼓励,能让人进步。F 选项“Instead of seeing it as a setback, view it as a chance to
get better.(不要把它看作是一次挫折,而要把它看作是一个变得更好的机会。)”承上启下,
建议把批评看作是一个变得更好的机会,符合语境,选项中“it”指代“criticism”。故选 F 项。
20.设空处为小标题;根据后文“This is about how you become your own cheerleader and
公众号:好未来试卷 公众号:试卷共享圈 公众号:学霸之路试卷 公众号:985试卷 公众号:清北之路试卷
build up your confidence. It doesn’ t even have to be anything major, but just remind yourself of
little things you do well and have achieved. Regularly practicing this does wonders for developing
a stronger mind and eventually, it will happen without you realizing.(这是关于你如何成为你自
己的啦啦队长和建立你的信心。它甚至不必是什么重大的事情,但只要提醒自己做得很好,
已经完成的小事情。经常这样做对培养一个更强大的头脑有神奇的作用,最终,它会在你
没有意识到的情况下发生。)” 可知,这段主要讲的是关于自我肯定和积极的心理暗示,提
醒自己做好的小事和取得的成就,这是积极的自我对话。A 选项“Positive self-talk.(积极的
自我对话。)”符合这一段的主旨,为总结该段内容,适合作为该段小标题。故选 A 项。

仅…… 而且……”为固定搭配,also 可以省略。故填 but。
37.考查定语从句。句意:后来,在唐朝(618-907 年)它们被带到了海外的日本和古代
朝鲜,这就是它们被称为“唐伞”的原因。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是前面整个

40.考查非谓语动词。句意:这项古老的技艺,被认定为国家级非物质文化遗产,仍然是
人类创造力的奇迹。空处在句中为非谓语,动词 recognize 与其逻辑主语 This ancient craft
之间是被动关系,故用过去分词形式作后置定语。故填 recognized。
41.考查冠词。句意:自从现代机械伞出现以来,传统油纸伞的销量一直在下降,而工匠
的数量也在减少。the number of...“…… 的数量”为固定短语,后接可数名词复数,作主语
时谓语动词用单数。故填 the。
42.考查副词。句意:幸运的是,随着 2008 年分水油纸伞被列入中国国家级非物质文化遗
产之一,情况一直在改善。应用副词修饰整个句子,fortunate 的副词形式为 fortunately“幸
运地”,位于句首首字母大写。故填 Fortunately。
43.考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,它们经历了一次繁荣,赢得了千禧一代
和时尚爱好者的喜爱。根据时间状语 In recent years 可知,句子应用现在完成时,they 作主
语,助动词用 have。故填 have experienced。
44.考查名词。句意:尽管它们重新受到欢迎,但这项技艺仍面临威胁。空处应用名词作
介词 Despite 的宾语,popular 的名词形式为 popularity“受欢迎;普及”。故填 popularity。
45.考查形容词比较级。句意:油纸伞的复兴反映了一场更广泛的重新发现中国非物质文
化遗产的运动。根据空前的 much 可知,空处应用形容词的比较级形式,widespread 的比
较级为 more widespread。故填 more widespread。
46.【答案】Dear Luke,
I hope this letter finds you well. I was thrilled to hear about your interest in traditional
Chinese music and your plan to attend the Traditional Chinese Music Festival at our city cultural
center.
To prepare for the festival, I have a few suggestions for you. First, it would be beneficial to
familiarize yourself with some traditional Chinese musical instruments such as the guzheng
(Chinese zither) or erhu (two-stringed bowed instrument). Additionally, being dressed in
traditional Chinese clothing, like a qipao or a tang suit, can add to the festive atmosphere and
allow you to immerse yourself in the cultural ambiance. Furthermore, it might be helpful to learn a
few basic Chinese phrases related to music, such as common instrument names or musical
terminologies, which will enhance your ability to communicate with fellow music enthusiasts
during the festival.
May you have a truly unforgettable experience, filled with the enchanting melodies and

47.【答案】参考答案
Right at that moment, Mr. Smith invited me to his office. Hesitantly, I walked into the
office. Mr. Smith greeted me with a smile. As he began talking, not about my grades or mistakes,
but about my potential and perseverance, it became apparent that this talk was totally a different
one. He didn’t blame me. Instead, he praised my resilience and determination. He encouraged me
to embrace my struggles, reminding me that success was never a straight path. In his eyes, I could
see his belief in me, and I knew I should never quit.
Finally, the college admission letter came. I held it in my shaking hands, doubting whether
I was in a world of fantasy. But as I opened the envelope, I couldn’t believe my eyes. Despite all
the odds, I got admitted! I stared at the letter in disbelief for a long time. It felt like the dawn after
a seemingly endless night, a reward for the perseverance I didn’t know I had until Mr. Smith
showed me. Tears welling up in my eyes. Mr. Smith might never know how much his
encouragement might mean to me in my toughest time.
