The British coastline has a wild beauty in the colder months but still offers incredible wildlife, views and fresh
air. Our guide looks at the best beaches to visit in the UK in the winter months.
Cuckmere Haven, East Sussex
If you’re visiting Brighton or Eastbourne, a winter walk along Cuckmere Haven beach and through Seven Sisters
Country Park is a must. Here, brisk sea breezes refresh your mind and amazing beach and ocean provide the perfect
setting for an open-air yoga session.
Robin Hood’s Bay, Yorkshire
Robin Hood’s Bay is a hidden bit of history, with its raw cliffs, red-roofed cottages and unusual architecture. The
beach itself is one of the UK’s best spots for fossil-hunting. Perfect to visit in the winter, you can enjoy a walk along
the cliffs or beach to take in the historical village.
Embleton Bay, Northumberland
A beautiful long stretch of beach overlooked by the impressive ruins of Dunstanburgh Castle, Embleton Bay is a
perfect winter beach. On a clear cold morning the ruins can be seen perfectly from the beach and beach itself backs
onto dunes (沙丘), famous for flowers, grasses and birds.
Charmouth, Dorset
There are few family pleasures as simple or as satisfying as finding fossils on the beach. It’s an outdoor experience
perfect for children of all ages. There’s no better place to indulge a passion for fossils than the Jurassic coastline of
Dorset and Devon. Now recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, it’s made up of 95 miles and 185 million years
of prehistoric life.

I’m from an Irish family with seven children. Apart from family, music is probably the single thing that has
defined my life, and I’ve just begun to realize how interconnected the two have always been.
Mum and Dad were poor Irish farmers who came to Liverpool in the 1950s and music was never a big thing
in our house. The first artist I really liked was Elton John, and I remember when I was 11, my sister Trish bunked
off school one morning to queue up to get us two tickets to see Elton at the Liverpool Empire. That was my first
concert, in about 1975, and I’ve been a live music fan ever since. To make sure I could see everything, Trish got
me to stand on my seat while she made sure I didn’t fall off! That afternoon we also managed to get Elton’s
signature.
When punk (朋克) music arrived, my life changed forever. I was 15 and this new music and movement took
over my life. The record that forever sums up that period for me is Safety Pin Stuck in My Heart by Patrik Fitzgerald
— I heard it first on the John Peel radio show. When Saturday came, I went into town with my mates and brought
the record back to play it about 20 times in a row on our little mono record player.
I’m not sure how my family let me get away with inflicting (强加) this terrible noise on them, but they did.
Looking back, I think it was because they knew I was so passionate about it. When I got my hair cut into a punk
style, Mum, Dad and my sisters were remarkably OK about it.
Some other punk kids got given a hard time by their parents, but my family were different. They didn’t just
tolerate my addiction and my strange-looking mates, but they also welcomed the whole package with open arms
and only the occasional collective shake of the head. If they hadn't been so understanding, I would guess my life
would have been very different.
24. Which of the following can replace the underlined words “bunked off” in Paragraph 2?
A．Delayed. B．Dropped out of. C．Skipped. D．Broke away from.
25. Why is “Safety Pin Stuck in My Heart” mentioned in Paragraph 3?
A．To illustrate the category of music.
B．To show respect for Patrik Fitzgerald.
C．To indicate the influence of punk music.
D．To convey the eagerness for the John Peel radio show.
26. What was the family members’ attitude towards the author’s love of punk?
A．Negative. B．Tolerant. C．Indifferent. D．Worried.
27. What is the best title of the text?
A．My Admiration for Elton John B．My First Concert with My Sister
C．The Influence of Music on My Family D．The Connection between Music and My Life
C
When we discuss our warming planet, we, however, overlook the impact of warming temperatures on our oceans.
A new study published by researchers from the University of Exeter explores the link between warming temperatures
and their impacts on the ocean’s twilight zone (暮光带).
The twilight zone is a region of the ocean that lies between the upper ocean and the deep ocean and is located
高三英语试卷第 3 页（共 8 页）
{#{QQABDYIp5gA40BTACJ5rQUFWCAkYkoIgLMgEQQCYOAwKSJFIBAA=}#}around 200 to 1,000 meters under the surface. In the upper ocean, tiny plant-like organisms (生物) called
phytoplankton turn carbon (碳) from the atmosphere into organic matter. This formation of organic matter, along with
other waste matter, produces a shower of organic material. It helps start the ocean’s huge food web as organic matter
and other carbon-based products go down from the surface and move through the depths of the ocean.
This process by which heat-trapping carbon is stored in deep waters instead of going into the atmosphere is an
essential set of processes that control the Earth’s climate system. The ocean’s twilight zone is also home to many
creatures. Twilight zone animals consume matter near the upper ocean during the night and return to the deeper waters
during the day, directly moving carbon from the ocean surface to the deep ocean. In this way, the organisms in the
twilight zone help.
Sadly, the study suggests that up to 40% of twilight zone creatures could disappear by the end of the century. This
is because rising temperatures increase the rate at which organic matter is eaten and disappears. As a result, less carbon
goes down into the twilight zone and beyond for storage as organic matter. Given that organisms in the twilight zone
are highly dependent on going down organic matter, this could put their complex food cycles in danger.
However, the authors tell us that we have not yet reached the point that couldn’t be saved and that there is still
time for us to act. Not only will this increase our ocean’s carbon cycling processes, but it will also protect beings in
the deepest parts of our oceans.
28．What plays a big role in the beginning of ocean creatures’ food web?
A．The wide variety of deep-sea creatures.
B．Organisms’ activities on the ocean floor.
C．The amount of waste matter on the surface.
D．Carbon-based products dropping into the twilight zone.
29．How do twilight zone animals’ activities contribute to the Earth?
A．By warming the twilight zone. B．By releasing heat-trapping carbon.
C．By balancing the Earth’s temperature. D．By clearing waste matter out of the ocean.
30．What may be a result of rising temperatures on twilight zone creatures?
A．Smaller living spaces. B．The break of their food chain.
C．Better ability to adapt to climate. D．Increased food on the sea surface.
31．What could be a suitable title for the text?
A．Acting to protect our ocean
B．The future of twilight zone creatures
C．The disappearing twilight zone creatures in the ocean
D．Unlocking the secrets of organic matter in the ocean
D
We’ve all experienced the sudden urge to check our phone, and a new study from Duke University might explain
why. The research suggests that this isn’t just a bad habit, but rather that our smartphones might be reshaping our
brain’s reward system, making us seek information in a way similar to how we seek food or money.
The study involved people playing a simple game where they had to choose between different symbols that offered
certain chances of receiving a reward. The rewards were either money, the opportunity to learn a random piece of
information (like a fun fact), or nothing. Meanwhile, the participants’ brain activity was monitored using FMRI scans.
The results were striking. The researchers found that the brain’s dopamine-rich reward centers, particularly the
vmPFC (前额叶皮层), became active when participants were expecting both monetary rewards and informational
rewards. This suggests that our brains process the opportunity to gain new information as a valuable reward itself. The
desire for information followed a classic “law of demand” — the more expensive (in terms of effort or cost) it was to
get information, the less people sought it, just like any other product.
“This finding helps explain the ‘checking’ behavior we see with smartphones,” said the study’s lead author. “Each
time we slide down to refresh our news feed or check updates, we are essentially seeking a small piece of new
高三英语试卷第 4 页（共 8 页）
{#{QQABDYIp5gA40BTACJ5rQUFWCAkYkoIgLMgEQQCYOAwKSJFIBAA=}#}information. Our brain perceives this information as having potential value, releasing dopamine (多巴胺) that makes
the action feel rewarding, even if the information itself is unimportant.”
The researchers believe this insight is crucial for understanding modern behaviors. It indicates that the appeal of
digital platforms is not merely about social connection but taps into a fundamental biological mechanism. However,
they also warn that this cycle, if left unchecked, could contribute to problematic internet use, as the brain gets caught
in a continuous circle of seeking minor informational rewards.
32．How does the author introduce his topic?
A．By presenting a personal experience.
B．By describing a common daily behavior.
C．By quoting a famous philosopher’s saying.
D．By comparing ancient and modern human behaviors.
33．The author mentions the “FMRI scans” in Paragraph 2 mainly to ________.
A．emphasize the high cost of the scientific research
B．describe the physical experience of the participants
C．provide objective evidence for the study’s conclusions
D．explain the complex technology used in modern psychology
34．What does the “law of demand” in Paragraph 3 indicate ?
A．The harder it is to get information, the less people want it.
B．People always want more information regardless of the cost.
C．The value of information decreases as it becomes easier to get.
D．Information is the most valuable product in the modern world.
35．What is the potential risk of the brain’s reward system for information?
A．It could slow down our thinking process.
B．It might end up with too much screen time.
C．It can damage our brain’s fundamental structure.
D．It will prevent us from learning essential knowledge.

根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Understanding articles on cutting-edge technology, such as artificial intelligence or quantum (量子) computing,
demands targeted strategies as follows that go far beyond general reading comprehension skills.
● Preview to identify structure
Before focusing on a close reading, invest time in previewing the entire article. Note all section headings and
their logical order. This initial mapping is not merely passive viewing; it actively prepares your mind to follow the
author’s logical framework, whether it presents a cause-effect chain, or a problem-solution model. 36
● Question the evidence and data
Merely understanding the surface claim of a technological breakthrough is far from sufficient for true
comprehension. 37 You must develop a habit of checking the data sources, sample sizes, and the presence of
control groups. This critical method, questioning how conclusions are reached, is what separates an informed reader
from one who simply accepts information at face value, especially when findings seem revolutionary.
● 38
Beyond the stated facts and figures, a deeper layer of understanding involves analyzing the author’s perspective
and intention. 39 Is the language overstating, cautiously optimistic, or objective? Identifying these tiny
differences, including the choice of persuasive adjectives or the structure of argumentation, reveals the intended
influence on the reader and provides crucial context for evaluating the information’s objectivity and potential bias.
● Integrate and seek connections
高三英语试卷第 5 页（共 8 页）
{#{QQABDYIp5gA40BTACJ5rQUFWCAkYkoIgLMgEQQCYOAwKSJFIBAA=}#}Finally, to move from separate facts to integrated knowledge, actively connect this new information to your
existing mental models. 40 Does this new discovery confirm, challenge, or entirely expand upon established
principles? Engaging in this process, that is, asking how it fits into the broader scientific or technological landscape,
transforms an individual data point into meaningful, long-lasting understanding and insight.
A．Analyze how the writer starts.
B．A doubting approach is essential.
C．Explore the writer’s hidden information.
D．This means relating it to known principles.
E．Grasping the core argument precisely is the first goal.
F．Telling fact reporting from persuading intention comes first.
G．Understanding this outline is fundamental for further reading.

I never thought a group of stray (流浪的) cats would turn our quiet community into a place of conflict until last
month. As a senior high school student who loves animals, I had been feeding the three stray cats near the community
gate for half a year. They were gentle — one black, one orange, and one white with patches — and they’d greet me
every afternoon after school, their tails waving softly.
But things started to go wrong. More neighbors noticed the cats and began bringing food: some left bowls of rice,
some threw leftover bones, and others put out milk. At first, I was glad the cats were getting more care. However, the
situation soon spiraled (急剧恶化) out of control. Food bowls piled up by the gate, attracting flies and ants in the
summer heat. The leftover food smelled terrible when it went bad, making the entrance to our community an unpleasant
高三英语试卷第 7 页（共 8 页）
{#{QQABDYIp5gA40BTACJ5rQUFWCAkYkoIgLMgEQQCYOAwKSJFIBAA=}#}place. What’s worse, a few more cats started wandering into residents’ yards, knocking over flower pots and leaving
fur on cars.
Complaints flooded the community group chat. “These cats are a nuisance (麻烦)!” one neighbor wrote.
“Someone should drive them away!” another said angrily. A few animal lovers argued back, insisting we shouldn’t
abandon the poor creatures. Tensions rose, and even my parents told me to stop feeding the cats, saying I was adding
to the problem. I felt heartbroken — I didn’t want to give up on the cats, but I also hated seeing the community torn
apart.
One evening, as I stood by the gate watching the cats eat quietly, Ms. Li, our community manager, walked over.
She didn’t scold me, but instead sighed and said, “We need a solution that works for everyone, not just the cats or the
people who love them.” Her words gave me an idea. That night, I stayed up late, writing down a plan. The next morning,
I went to see Ms. Li again, holding my notebook tightly. I hoped my plan would put an end to the conflict and save the
stray cats.
