Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else.
This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly.
Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely.
But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping.
The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them.
4. Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip
A. He didn’t like soy sauce. B. He preferred to travel light.
C. He couldn’t afford a better meal. D. He enjoyed simple outdoor meals.
5. What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean
A. Tired. B. Starving. C. Fulfilled. D. Refreshed.
6. What does the author think of camping
A. It is a test of adaptability. B. It is a chance to enjoy good food.
C. It is a reminder of the good life he has. D. It is a bonding experience for his family.
7. What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph
A. Some people lack the basic necessities of life.
B. Some people fail to appreciate what they have.
C. People easily forget the beauty of simple things.
D. People easily quit camping due to its discomfort.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. A
C
Bacteria (细菌) know how to rough it out all over the earth. Ask most of them where they’d truly prefer to settle through, and a kitchen sponge (海绵) would probably top the list. Yes, it turns out that the very tool we use to clean our plates, which is warm, damp, and full of nutritious food pieces, is packed of tiny life.
Lingchong You, a biologist at Duke University, along with his team, used computers to model the complex environment of a sponge for a 2022 study. He found that sponges featuring pockets of varying sizes are something that really matters for promoting bacterial growth. This holds significance as certain bacteria tend to grow independently while others demand the companionship of others. Within a sponge filled with holes and pockets, there exist such an abundance of diverse structures that everyone attains a state of satisfaction.
Nevertheless, it does not necessarily follow that these tools present a health risk to us as well. Bacteria exist everywhere and not all are harmful; in fact, many perform vital jobs. The important question is, therefore, are the bacteria found in sponges even worth worrying about
In 2017, Jennifer Quinlan, a professor of food safety, and her colleagues, collected kitchen sponges from 100 homes, finding that only 1 – 2% of those sponges contained bacteria linked to food poisoning in humans and the ones that did contained only small amounts of harmful bacteria. “The vast majority of bacteria on sponges do not cause illness, and they’re just going to make them smell.” says Quinlan. “Having said that, there is a possibility that if you use a sponge to wipe up raw meat that you could have some of those disease-causing bacteria on there, and studies have found that those bacteria can be separated from kitchen sponges.”
This is not the whole story yet. If dangerous bacteria happen to arrive on the scene, the sponge’s special make-up makes it an ideal place for them to grow and multiply. And there’s evidence this is the case.
8. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Sponges are perfect tools in the kitchen.
B. Bacteria prefer to live in dry environment.
C. Kitchen sponges are good home for bacteria.
D. Bacteria affect kitchen sponges’ performance.
9. What did Lingchong You find in his study
A. How sponges are exactly structured. B. What encourages bacterial growth.
C. How bacteria react to the environment. D. Why bacteria keep company with each other.
10. What does Quinlan think of bacteria on sponges
A. Relatively harmless. B. Poorly adaptive,
C. Surprisingly unpleasant. D. Widely distributed.
11. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph
A. Proofs of bacterial threat. B. The classification of bacteria.
C. Methods to control bacterial growth. D. Research into applications of bacteria.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. A
D
Killer whales hunt fish with sounds as clicks and buzzes — they choose and chase their prey with sound waves. But a common feature of modern ocean life may be like a salmon’s invisible cloak (隐形斗篷), making the whales’ favorite meal harder to find. What is to blame Boat traffic noise.
Ocean noise has been increasing over the years, and an international research team recently reported in Global Change Biology that when the water got too noisy, whales spent more time looking for food but caught fewer fish. The study tracked every move and sound that individual killer whales made, as well as the sound reaching those whales. This is the first time scientists have linked noise reaching a given killer whale to their foraging (觅食) success, says lead author Jennifer Tennessen.
The noise problem is one that Tennessen views as chronic, yet possibly more straightforward to fix than declining fish populations or pollution — ships could simply slow down to make less noise. Fortunately, with the guidance of both governmental and nongovernmental groups, some ship operators are slowing down.
The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority in Canada reported in 2023 that 87 percent of ships slowed or moved over for southern resident whales in critical habitat, which led to a decrease of 4.2 decibels (分贝) compared to 2019, before slowdowns began. Washington ports and other local authorities join in a program of voluntary slowdowns in Washington waters called Quiet Sound, which offers information on killer whale locations. About 70 percent of ships follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines and voluntarily slow down in killer whale critical habitat.
The talk about innovations in propeller (螺旋桨) technology is also positive. A propeller, for example, is based on a design for a quieter drone propeller. If claims of a more efficient and quieter boat propeller are true, that’s good news for both reducing fuel use and quieting traffic.
Tennessen says increasing ship noise is a problem in oceans around the world. “We’re finally able to measure the impacts that it’s having on wildlife,” she says, “and we’re finding that the impacts are numerous.”
12. Why does the author mention a salmon’s invisible cloak
A. To introduce the feature of sound waves.
B. To describe the environment in whales’ hunting.
C. To emphasize the invisibility of salmons’ cloak.
D. To demonstrate the characteristic of whales’ hunting.
13 What do the statistics indicate in paragraph 4
A. Noise reduction is ineffective.
B. Ship operators ignore guidelines.
C. Quiet Sound prioritizes noise monitoring.
D. Voluntary slowdowns lead to noise reduction.
14. What is the significance of propeller technology innovations
A. To address noise issues.
B To reduce fuel efficiency.
C. To follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines.
D. To help measure influences on wildlife.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Ships Slow Down for Whales.
B. Boat Noise Clouds Whale Foraging.
C. Killer Whales Battle Noise Pollution.
D. Technology Innovations Silence Propellers.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B

Diana stepped into her college dormitory, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and nervousness. The room was small but bright, with two beds, two desks, and a bookshelf. Her roommate, Lily, was already there, unpacking a box filled with colorful pillows and a huge teddy bear. “Glad to see you I’m Lily,” she greeted with a broad smile, extending her hand. Diana smiled back shyly, “I’m Diana.”
At first, everything went smooth. They chatted about their high schools, favorite movies, and dreams for college. But soon, Diana noticed some differences. Lily was an early riser, always getting up at 6:00 and humming (哼唱) softly while getting dressed. Diana, however, loved sleeping in and often felt annoyed by the early morning noise. Lily also had a habit of leaving her things everywhere, with her shoes by the door, her books on Diana’s desk, and her snacks on the windowsill (窗台).
One evening, Diana came back to find her favorite notebook missing. She searched for it everywhere but couldn’t find it. “Have you seen my notebook, Lily ” she asked, trying to keep her voice calm. “Oh, yeah,” Lily replied casually, “I used it to take some notes in my math class. Is that okay ” Diana felt her face turned red with anger. “No, it’s not okay” she screamed. “You should ask for my permission before using my items” Lily looked astonished and a little hurt. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you,” she said guiltily.
After that, the atmosphere in the room became tense. They seldom talked, and when they did, their words were cold. Lily felt lonely and missed her old friends. She thought about talking to her mom on the phone, but she didn’t want to disturb her. One night, as Diana lay in bed, she heard Lily crying softly. “Should I hold a friendly attitude and talk with her patiently ” Diana hesitated for a moment and thought to herself.
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。
The next morning, Diana decided to apologize.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that day on, the relationship between Diana and Lily changed.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】参考范文
The next morning Diana decided to apologize. She arose before Lily and wrote a note with care. “Dear Lily, I regret my anger deeply. Though we differ, I long for us to get on well again,” it read. She placed the note on Lily’s pillow and headed to the cafeteria for hand-made cookies. Returning, she found Lily smiling over the note. “Diana, this is so thoughtful,” she said. “I wish to apologize too. Shall we make room rules together ” Diana nodded eagerly, and they spent the whole morning drafting guidelines like “ask before using others’ items” and “remain tidy” so that they would live in harmony with each other.
From that day on, the relationship between Diana and Lily changed. They obeyed the rules they fashioned and respected each other’s different habits. When Lily wanted to stay up late studying, she would use a small portable lamp instead of turning on the main light. When Diana needed to sleep in, Lily would tiptoe around the room. They also started sharing hobbies and worked out together. One weekend, they even decorated their room with pictures and posters. Looking around at the comfortable room, Diana felt content. She had learned that mutual understanding and communication contributed to a harmonious relationship.沈阳市第120中学2025-2026学年度上学期高二年级第一次质量监测

Jared was my regular hiking, ice-climbing and mountain-biking fellow. We were on an overnight trip, just a single night, and what he’d brought for dinner was this: Rice. Literally nothing else.
This was not a result of him trying to pack as light as possible, nor was it because he was broke. He wasn’t. I tried to convince him to at least put soy sauce (酱油) on it. But no, Jared wasn’t having a bar of it. “I don’t need it,” he said flatly.
Now, if he was talking only about outdoors’ meals, I’d almost get it. When you’re ravenous after a day of burning off calories walking or climbing or backcountry skiing in the mountains, how awesome do things taste! I know what you’re thinking; it’s simply that, as the saying goes, hunger is the best sauce. And I agree. Absolutely.
But there’s more to it than that. Last month, I went down the coast car camping with my family. One morning, my wife made a statement. “I don’t see the point,” she said. “It’s so much work, camping. But the views at home are better. The beds are more comfortable. It’s more peaceful. And at home, the food is better.” I’ll admit she’s right about the first three. But the food We had a simple pasta one night, snags another, chicken curry the third, but they all tasted good. Better than at home. And it wasn’t simply that we were hungry; it was because we were camping.
The real point I want to get to is that meals largely taste so good when I’m camping because I’m reminded of some things easily forgotten at home, where I can simply go to the cupboard, or the supermarket, and get whatever takes my fancy. Life, when you’re camping, is reduced to its essentials, and I am reminded of how lucky most of us are to be dry and warm and fed. More importantly, I am reminded that sadly, and in fact unforgivably, not all of us are. And I am reminded that we, as a society, should do better for them.
4. Why did Jared bring only rice for dinner on the trip
A. He didn’t like soy sauce. B. He preferred to travel light.
C. He couldn’t afford a better meal. D. He enjoyed simple outdoor meals.
5. What does the underlined word “ravenous” in the third paragraph mean
A. Tired. B. Starving. C. Fulfilled. D. Refreshed.
6. What does the author think of camping
A. It is a test of adaptability. B. It is a chance to enjoy good food.
C. It is a reminder of the good life he has. D. It is a bonding experience for his family.
7. What makes the author sad according to the last paragraph
A. Some people lack the basic necessities of life.

C. People easily forget the beauty of simple things.
D. People easily quit camping due to its discomfort.

Bacteria (细菌) know how to rough it out all over the earth. Ask most of them where they’d truly prefer to settle through, and a kitchen sponge (海绵) would probably top the list. Yes, it turns out that the very tool we use to clean our plates, which is warm, damp, and full of nutritious food pieces, is packed of tiny life.
Lingchong You, a biologist at Duke University, along with his team, used computers to model the complex environment of a sponge for a 2022 study. He found that sponges featuring pockets of varying sizes are something that really matters for promoting bacterial growth. This holds significance as certain bacteria tend to grow independently while others demand the companionship of others. Within a sponge filled with holes and pockets, there exist such an abundance of diverse structures that everyone attains a state of satisfaction.
Nevertheless, it does not necessarily follow that these tools present a health risk to us as well. Bacteria exist everywhere and not all are harmful; in fact, many perform vital jobs. The important question is, therefore, are the bacteria found in sponges even worth worrying about
In 2017, Jennifer Quinlan, a professor of food safety, and her colleagues, collected kitchen sponges from 100 homes, finding that only 1 – 2% of those sponges contained bacteria linked to food poisoning in humans and the ones that did contained only small amounts of harmful bacteria. “The vast majority of bacteria on sponges do not cause illness, and they’re just going to make them smell.” says Quinlan. “Having said that, there is a possibility that if you use a sponge to wipe up raw meat that you could have some of those disease-causing bacteria on there, and studies have found that those bacteria can be separated from kitchen sponges.”
This is not the whole story yet. If dangerous bacteria happen to arrive on the scene, the sponge’s special make-up makes it an ideal place for them to grow and multiply. And there’s evidence this is the case.
8. What can we learn from the first paragraph
A. Sponges are perfect tools in the kitchen.
B. Bacteria prefer to live in dry environment.
C. Kitchen sponges are good home for bacteria.
D. Bacteria affect kitchen sponges’ performance.
9. What did Lingchong You find in his study
A. How sponges are exactly structured. B. What encourages bacterial growth.
C. How bacteria react to the environment. D. Why bacteria keep company with each other.
10. What does Quinlan think of bacteria on sponges
A. Relatively harmless. B. Poorly adaptive,
C. Surprisingly unpleasant. D. Widely distributed.
11. What will be probably discussed in the following paragraph
A. Proofs of bacterial threat. B. The classification of bacteria.
C. Methods to control bacterial growth. D. Research into applications of bacteria.
D
Killer whales hunt fish with sounds as clicks and buzzes — they choose and chase their prey with sound waves. But a common feature of modern ocean life may be like a salmon’s invisible cloak (隐形斗篷), making the whales’ favorite meal harder to find. What is to blame Boat traffic noise.
Ocean noise has been increasing over the years, and an international research team recently reported in Global Change Biology that when the water got too noisy, whales spent more time looking for food but caught fewer fish. The study tracked every move and sound that individual killer whales made, as well as the sound reaching those whales. This is the first time scientists have linked noise reaching a given killer whale to their foraging (觅食) success, says lead author Jennifer Tennessen.
The noise problem is one that Tennessen views as chronic, yet possibly more straightforward to fix than declining fish populations or pollution — ships could simply slow down to make less noise. Fortunately, with the guidance of both governmental and nongovernmental groups, some ship operators are slowing down.
The Vancouver Fraser Port Authority in Canada reported in 2023 that 87 percent of ships slowed or moved over for southern resident whales in critical habitat, which led to a decrease of 4.2 decibels (分贝) compared to 2019, before slowdowns began. Washington ports and other local authorities join in a program of voluntary slowdowns in Washington waters called Quiet Sound, which offers information on killer whale locations. About 70 percent of ships follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines and voluntarily slow down in killer whale critical habitat.
The talk about innovations in propeller (螺旋桨) technology is also positive. A propeller, for example, is based on a design for a quieter drone propeller. If claims of a more efficient and quieter boat propeller are true, that’s good news for both reducing fuel use and quieting traffic.
Tennessen says increasing ship noise is a problem in oceans around the world. “We’re finally able to measure the impacts that it’s having on wildlife,” she says, “and we’re finding that the impacts are numerous.”
12. Why does the author mention a salmon’s invisible cloak
A. To introduce the feature of sound waves.
B. To describe the environment in whales’ hunting.
C. To emphasize the invisibility of salmons’ cloak.
D. To demonstrate the characteristic of whales’ hunting.
13 What do the statistics indicate in paragraph 4
A. Noise reduction is ineffective.
B. Ship operators ignore guidelines.
C. Quiet Sound prioritizes noise monitoring.
D. Voluntary slowdowns lead to noise reduction.
14. What is the significance of propeller technology innovations
A. To address noise issues.
B To reduce fuel efficiency.
C. To follow Quiet Sound’s guidelines.
D. To help measure influences on wildlife.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text
A. Ships Slow Down for Whales.
B. Boat Noise Clouds Whale Foraging.
C. Killer Whales Battle Noise Pollution.
D. Technology Innovations Silence Propellers.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
Diana stepped into her college dormitory, her heart pounding with a mix of excitement and nervousness. The room was small but bright, with two beds, two desks, and a bookshelf. Her roommate, Lily, was already there, unpacking a box filled with colorful pillows and a huge teddy bear. “Glad to see you I’m Lily,” she greeted with a broad smile, extending her hand. Diana smiled back shyly, “I’m Diana.”
At first, everything went smooth. They chatted about their high schools, favorite movies, and dreams for college. But soon, Diana noticed some differences. Lily was an early riser, always getting up at 6:00 and humming (哼唱) softly while getting dressed. Diana, however, loved sleeping in and often felt annoyed by the early morning noise. Lily also had a habit of leaving her things everywhere, with her shoes by the door, her books on Diana’s desk, and her snacks on the windowsill (窗台).
One evening, Diana came back to find her favorite notebook missing. She searched for it everywhere but couldn’t find it. “Have you seen my notebook, Lily ” she asked, trying to keep her voice calm. “Oh, yeah,” Lily replied casually, “I used it to take some notes in my math class. Is that okay ” Diana felt her face turned red with anger. “No, it’s not okay” she screamed. “You should ask for my permission before using my items” Lily looked astonished and a little hurt. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you,” she said guiltily.
After that, the atmosphere in the room became tense. They seldom talked, and when they did, their words were cold. Lily felt lonely and missed her old friends. She thought about talking to her mom on the phone, but she didn’t want to disturb her. One night, as Diana lay in bed, she heard Lily crying softly. “Should I hold a friendly attitude and talk with her patiently ” Diana hesitated for a moment and thought to herself.
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。
The next morning, Diana decided to apologize.

From that day on, the relationship between Diana and Lily changed.
