One great way to feel this connection is by attending some of the world’s most incredible music festivals. Sziget Festival The Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary, is a renowned six-day celebration of music and art on Obuda Island on the Danube River. Started in 1993, the festival is known for its diverse lineup, featuring top artists from genres like electronic, hip-hop, techno, and pop rock. Beyond music, the festival offers cultural experiences like art exhibitions, theater, circus performances, and film screenings. Glastonbury Glastonbury Music Festival is a global music fest held annually at the Worthy Farm in Somerset, England. Since its inception（开始）in 1970, it has become a touchstone for music enthusiasts worldwide, drawing more than 200,000 visitors during its remarkable five-day run. Additionally, Glastonbury is among the few festivals striving towards being completely carbon-neutral. Rock in Rio The beloved Rock in Rio festival was founded in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1985．The brand has since expanded to other locations, including Lisbon, Madrid, and Las Vegas. Rock in Rio spans multiple days. While its roots are in rock music, Rock in Rio has evolved to include more genres to appeal to a much broader audience. One of Rock in Rio’s standout features is its commitment to environmental initiatives. Fuji Rock Fuji Rock is Japan’s biggest music festival, typically held in Naeba Ski Resort in Niiga ta Prefecture. Known for its stunning mountainous backdrop, this event has been running since 1997 and is celebrated for its diverse lineup that spans rock, electronic, hip-hop, and most other genres. It attracts international and local acts, creating a unique fusion of musical styles. 1. How is the Sziget Festival different from the other music festivals? A. It is documented in films. B. It is centered on classical arts. C. It hosts various cultural events. D. It features diverse music genres. 2. What do Glastonbury and Rock in Rio have in common? A. They highlight rock music. B. They last more than a week. C. They undergo global expansion. D. They adopt eco-friendly practices. 3. Which of the four music festivals has the shortest history? A. Sziget Festival. B. Glastonbury. C. Rock in Rio. D. Fuji Rock. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了世界上四个著名的音乐节。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。通过文章“Sziget Festival(匈牙利布达佩斯的“Sziget 音乐节”)”部分的“Beyond music, the festival offers cultural experiences like art exhibitions, theater, circus performances, and film screenings.(除了音乐，该节日还提供艺术展览、戏剧、马戏表演和电影放映等文化体验。)”可知，Sziget 音乐节与其他音乐节的不同之处在于它举办各种文化活动。故选C项。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。通过文章“Glastonbury(格拉斯顿伯里音乐节)”部分的“Additionally, Glastonbury is among the few festivals striving towards being completely carbon-neutral.(此外，格拉斯顿伯里音乐节是少数几个努力实现完全碳中和的音乐节之一。)”和“Rock in Rio(里约摇滚音乐节)”部分的“One of Rock in Rio’s standout features is its commitment to environmental initiatives.(里约摇滚音乐节的突出特点之一是其对环境倡议的承诺。)”可知，格拉斯顿伯里音乐节和里约摇滚音乐节的共同之处在于它们采取了环保措施。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。通过文章“Sziget Festival(匈牙利布达佩斯的“Sziget 音乐节”)”部分的“Started in 1993(始于 1993年)”、“Glastonbury(格拉斯顿伯里音乐节)”部分的“Since its inception in 1970(自1970年成立以来)”、“Rock in Rio(里约摇滚音乐节)”部分的“The beloved Rock in Rio festival was founded in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1985.(深受喜爱的里约摇滚音乐节于1985年在巴西里约热内卢成立。)”以及“Fuji Rock(富士摇滚音乐节)”部分的“Known for its stunning mountainous backdrop, this event has been running since 1997(自1997年以来，这项活动一直在进行，以其令人惊叹的山区背景而闻名)”可知，四个音乐节中，Fuji Rock的历史最短。故选D项。 B I had a great time with the film Turning Red, which follows Meilin, a thirteen-year-old girl who suddenly begins turning into a giant red panda. The film was set in 2002 when I would’ve been around Meilin’s age. It was a joy for me to watch a film that I could relate to. The film illustrates the push-pull that many immigrant families face: how much of their culture to keep and how much to assimilate(融入). There are beautiful traces of Chinese culture throughout this film, including gorgeous food, time around the table, relationships with extended family, and more. In the film, women in Meilin’s family suffer a curse(诅咒). As soon as they begin to blossom into womanhood, they transform into a giant red panda whenever they express any strong emotion. Thus, they have learned that emotional repression is the way to go. It was beautiful to watch this young girl choose the different path of emotional wellness instead of holding back her feelings. It’s not a surprise that the director Domee Shi, who is around my age, chose this plotline. Many people my age are on that similar path Meilin finds herself on. We honor our parents and what they have done for us, but we’re also choosing to be more emotionally healthy and trying to live differently than we were taught. The part of Turning Red I particularly loved is the ending. Though Meilin’s mom, grandma, and aunts see that it’s possible to integrate their red pandas into their lives, they don’t choose that path. Instead, they choose to bottle their pandas up once again. However, they do get a new perspective on this young, groundbreaking girl. It’s such a sweet reminder that not everyone can go on the same journey toward emotional health, and that’s okay. If all of them had embraced their pandas, I think the ending would’ve felt incredibly cheese and taken away some of the power of the story. So we get a conclusion that is satisfying and heart-warming without being too much of a fairy tale. 4. Why did the author enjoy watching Turning Red? A. She found a connection with the story. B. She followed a life path similar to its director. C. She adored the appealing design of the red panda. D. She valued its emphasis on the beautiful Chinese culture. 5. What does the underlined word “repression” in the third paragraph mean? A Disturbance. B. Control. C. Wellness. D. Expression. 6. What does the author think of the ending of the film? A. Bittersweet. B. Idealized. C. Realistic. D. Cheesy. 7. What is the central dilemma faced by Meilin in Turning Red? A. “Can I embrace my true self?” B. “Should I prioritize my family?” C. “Can I uncover the curse’s secret?” D. “Should I explore diverse cultures?” 【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者观看了电影《青春变形记》，电影讲述了13岁的女孩Meilin突然开始变成一只巨大的红色熊猫的故事。文章分析了这部电影的剧情和主题，以及作者对电影的评价。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It was a joy for me to watch a film that I could relate to.(能看一部与自己有关的电影，我感到很高兴。)”可知，作者喜欢看《青春变形记》是因为她能在故事中找到共鸣。故选A。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第三段“As soon as they begin to blossom into womanhood, they transform into a giant red panda whenever they express any strong emotion. Thus, they have learned that emotional repression is the way to go.(当她们开始步入成年期，每当她们表达任何强烈的情感时，她们就会变成一只巨大的红色熊猫。因此，她们知道了……情绪是前进的道路。)”可知，女性只要表达出强烈的情感就会变成熊猫，所以她们选择了控制自己的情绪。由此可知，repression的意思是“控制”，与control意思相近。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“So we get a conclusion that is satisfying and heart-warming without being too much of a fairy tale.(所以我们得到了一个令人满意和温暖人心的结尾，而不是过于童话般的结尾。)”可知，作者认为电影的结局是现实的。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“We honor our parents and what they have done for us, but we’re also choosing to be more emotionally healthy and trying to live differently than we were taught.(我们尊重我们的父母和他们为我们所做的一切，但我们也选择更健康的情绪，并试图以与我们被教导的不同的方式生活。)”可知，电影中的Meilin一方面想要尊重父母和他们的文化传统，另一方面又想要追求自己的情感健康和个人发展。A选项“‘我能拥抱真实的自己吗？’”是她面临的两难选择。故选A。 C Yes, having a big name in science will help get your paper published, a new study confirms. Involving hundreds of researchers reviewing an economics paper, the study found that reviewers were more likely to recommend acceptance when the paper was associated with a famous author compared to a lesser-known one. The Matthew effect, a term coined in 1968 to describe this prejudice, has been a topic of concern among scientists for years. However, previous efforts to document this prejudice had limitations such as small sample sizes or lack of randomization. To address these issues, a team from the University of Innsbruck conducted an extensive study. The team sent emails to about 3,300 researchers, inviting them to review an economics paper for a real journal. The paper had two authors: Vernon Smith, a Nobel Prize winner, and Sabiou Inoua, one of Smith’s former Ph. D. students. The potential reviewers received one of three descriptions of the paper: one mentioning only Smith, another mentioning only Inoua, and a third with no author mentioned. Of the researchers who agreed to review the paper, Smith’s fame influenced their responses. When given only Smith’s name, 38.5% accepted the invitation to review, while the figures were 30.7% for those given no name and 28.5% for those given only Inoua’s name. To further avoid prejudice, the team randomly assigned the 313 reviewers who initially received no author’s name to review one of three papers: one credited to Smith alone, another to Inoua alone,and a third with no authors listed. Reviewers rated the paper credited to Smith the highest, praising its inclusion of new information and data-supported conclusions. The version with no authors received recommendations for acceptance from 24% of reviewers, more than double the percentage for the version credited only to Inoua. The team warned against evaluating identical work differently based on the author’s identity and suggested that double-blind reviews may reduce the prejudice. However, this approach may not be effective as reviewers can often identify authors through preprints or conference presentations. 8. What does the term “the Matthew effect” refer to according to this passage? A. A topic of public concern. B. A preference in publication. C. A document describing coins. D. A way to get papers accepted. 9. Why did the team from the University of Innsbruck carry out the extensive study? A. To review an economics paper. B. To find fault with prior studies. C. To further investigate an effect. D. To study how to release papers. 10. What are presented in paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Data reception and release. B. Paper description and scores. C. Research methods and findings. D. Authors’ identities and responses. 11. What does the team suggest to reduce the prejudice? A. Revising the review method. B. Reading the online preprint. C. Assessing different works. D. Adding new information. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇科普说明文。文章主要介绍了科学界中马太效应的一个实证研究，该效应描述了在科学研究中对著名作者存在的偏见，以及这种偏见对论文发表机会的影响并提出了减少这种偏见的可能方法。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The Matthew effect, a term coined in 1968 to describe this prejudice, has been a topic of concern among scientists for years. However, previous efforts to document this prejudice had limitations such as small sample sizes or lack of randomization. To address these issues, a team from the University of Innsbruck conducted an extensive study. (马太效应是1968年创造的一个术语，用来描述这种偏见，多年来一直是科学家们关注的话题。然而，先前记录这种偏见的努力存在局限性，例如样本量小或缺乏随机化。为了解决这些问题，来自因斯布鲁克大学的一个团队进行了一项广泛的研究。)”可知，“马太效应”被描述为“对著名作者的偏见”和“基于作者身份对相同作品的不同评价”。它用来描述审稿人在接受与著名作者相关的论文时，相比于鲜为人知的作者，所表现出的偏见。这清楚地表明，它指的是出版过程中的偏好或偏见。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“The Matthew effect, a term coined in 1968 to describe this prejudice, has been a topic of concern among scientists for years. However, previous efforts to document this prejudice had limitations such as small sample sizes or lack of randomization. To address these issues, a team from the University of Innsbruck conducted an extensive study. (马太效应是1968年创造的一个术语，用来描述这种偏见，多年来一直是科学家们关注的话题。然而，先前记录这种偏见的努力存在局限性，例如样本量小或缺乏随机化。为了解决这些问题，来自因斯布鲁克大学的一个团队进行了一项广泛的研究。)”可知，该团队进行了一项广泛的研究是为了深入调查这一效应，而不是简单地回顾一篇经济学论文、找先前研究的错误或研究如何发布论文。故选C。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“The team sent emails to about 3,300 researchers, inviting them to review an economics paper for a real journal .(该团队向大约3300名研究人员发送了电子邮件，邀请他们为一份真正的期刊审阅一篇经济学论文。)”、第四段“To further avoid prejudice, the team randomly assigned the 313 reviewers who initially received no author’s name to review one of three papers: one credited to Smith alone, another to Inoua alone, and a third with no authors listed. (为了进一步避免偏见，研究小组随机分配了313名最初没有收到作者姓名的审稿人，让他们分别审查三篇论文中的一篇：一篇是Smith一个人的论文，另一篇是Inoua一个人的论文，还有一篇没有作者的论文。)”可知，在这两段中，首先介绍了研究团队使用的实验方法，即他们模拟了经济学领域论文的同行评审过程，并详细说明了实验的具体步骤。接着，在第4段中，他们呈现了研究的发现，即论文的作者身份确实对审稿人的评分有显著影响，这进一步验证了“马太效应”的存在。因此，这两段主要介绍了研究方法和发现。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The team warned against evaluating identical work differently based on the author’s identity and suggested that double-blind reviews may reduce the prejudice. However, this approach may not be effective as reviewers can often identify authors through preprints or conference presentations. (该团队警告说，不要根据作者的身份对相同的作品进行不同的评估，并建议双盲评审可能会减少偏见。然而，这种方法可能并不有效，因为审稿人通常可以通过预印本或会议演讲来识别作者。)”可知，研究人员认为减少偏见的唯一方法是修改评审方法。因此，团队建议的是修订评审方法以减少偏见。故选A。 D “Tie an Italian’s hands behind his back,” runs an old joke, “and he’ll be speechless.” This rests on a national stereotype: Italians are talkative and emotional, and all that arm-waggling supposedly goes to prove it. Susan Goldin-Meadow of the University of Chicago has a rather different view. Emotions come out in lots of ways: facial expressions, posture, tone of voice and so on. But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech, which she sums up in the title of her new book, “Thinking with Your Hands”. It is a masterly tour through a lifetime’s research. Virtually everyone gestures, not just Italians. Experimental subjects, told after a research session that they were being watched for gestures, apologize for not having made any — but were doing so the entire time. People born blind gesture when they speak, including to each other. A woman born without arms but with “phantom limb syndrome (幻肢综合征)” describes how she uses her phantom arms when she talks — but not when she walks. All this suggests that cognition is, to some extent, “embodied”; thinking is not all done in your head. In fact, gestures that accompany speech are a second channel of information. Subjects watch a film in which a cat runs but are told to lie and say it jumped. They do so in words — while their hands make a running motion. People who say they believe in sexual equality but gesture with their hands lower when talking about women are not indicating women’s height; they can be shown to have biases of which they may be unaware. In “The Crown”, a historical drama series, Lady Diana is warned that her hands may betray her real emotions, which could be dangerous; they are tied together so she can learn to speak without gesticulating. No one who reads Susan’s book could ever again think that gesturing shows only a lack of control. It is about thinking and communication, and is a sophisticated aid to both. 12. Why does the author mention the old joke in Paragraph 1? A. To present an argument. B. To describe a scene. C. To lead in the topic. D. To clarify a doubt. 13. Which statement will Susan Goldin-Meadow probably agree with? A. The disabled seldom use gestures. B. Gestures literally embody cognition. C. Thinking only occurs inside the brain. D. Gestures are improper in communication. 14. What does the author try to prove in the last two paragraphs? A Gestures may express what the speaker really thinks. B. People are unaware of the meanings of their gestures. C. Gesturing during speech shows only a lack of control. D. Speakers can lie more easily with the help of gestures. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Speech: A Direct Channel of Information B. Gestures: A Vital Form of Communication C. Italian’s Body Language: A National Stereotype D. Thinking with Your Hands: A Lifetime’s Research 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芝加哥大学的苏珊·戈尔丁-梅多的新的研究发现，她认为情绪以多种方式表现出来：面部表情、姿势、语调等等。但是，当人们在说话时使用手势时，他们的行为是不同的。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段““Tie an Italian’s hands behind his back,” runs an old joke, “and he’ll be speechless.” This rests on a national stereotype: Italians are talkative and emotional, and all that arm-waggling supposedly goes to prove it. (“把意大利人的手绑在背后，”一个老笑话说，“他会哑口无言。”这是基于一个民族的刻板印象：意大利人健谈、情绪化，所有的握手都被认为是证明这一点的证据。)”以及第二段“But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech, which she sums up in the title of her new book, “Thinking with Your Hands”. It is a masterly tour through a lifetime’s research. (但是，当人们在说话时使用手势时，他们的行为是不同的，她在新书的标题中总结了这一点，“用你的手思考”。这是一次对一生研究的精湛之旅。)”可知，作者在第一段提到关于意大利的老笑话是为了引出本文的主题——手势在交流中的重要性。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“Susan Goldin-Meadow of the University of Chicago has a rather different view. Emotions come out in lots of ways: facial expressions, posture, tone of voice and so on. But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech, which she sums up in the title of her new book, “Thinking with Your Hands”. It is a masterly tour through a lifetime’s research. (芝加哥大学的Susan Goldin-Meadow有不同的看法。情绪以多种方式表现出来：面部表情、姿势、语调等等。但是，当人们在说话时使用手势时，他们的行为是不同的，她在新书的标题中总结了这一点，“用你的手思考”。这是一次对一生研究的精湛之旅。)”可知，Susan Goldin-Meadow认为人们在使用手势与语言时实际上在做一些不同的事情，并强调手势是思考和交流的一部分。她通过“用你的手思考”这个书名也表达了类似的观点，即手势在某种程度上体现了认知。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In fact, gestures that accompany speech are a second channel of information. Subjects watch a film in which a cat runs but are told to lie and say it jumped. They do so in words—while their hands make a running motion. People who say they believe in sexual equality but gesture with their hands lower when talking about women are not indicating women’s height; they can be shown to have biases of which they may be unaware. (事实上，伴随着说话的手势是第二种信息渠道。研究对象观看了一部电影，电影中有一只猫在跑，但被要求撒谎说它是跳下来的。他们用语言来表达，而他们的手做着奔跑的动作。那些说自己相信男女平等，但在谈论女性时把手放低的人并不是在暗示女性的身高；他们可能会表现出自己可能没有意识到的偏见。)”可知，作者通过举例和解释来论证手势可能表达说话者真正的想法。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章最后一段“No one who reads Susan’s book could ever again think that gesturing shows only a lack of control. It is about thinking and communication, and is a sophisticated aid to both. (读过Susan这本书的人再也不会认为手势只是缺乏控制的表现。它是关于思考和交流的，是对两者的复杂辅助。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了手势作为一种重要的交流形式，在语言和思考中所扮演的角色。从文章开头提到的意大利人的笑话，到Susan Goldin-Meadow教授的观点，再到各种实验和实例的引用，都旨在强调手势在交流中的不可或缺的地位。因此，标题应该突出手势作为交流的一种重要形式，选项B“Gestures: A Vital Form of Communication (手势：一种重要的交流形式)”最符合文章的中心思想。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Psychologists offer their best tips for working or making progress as planned, expected, or desired. Here is their guide to making and keeping your plans. Don’t assume that your plan has to be ambitious. “What’s much more important than setting a grand goal, like running a marathon, is to set an immediate plan that you can start right away,” says Charles Duhigg, the author of The Power of Habit. “ ___16___ But many people fail to realize this.” Whether you are making a new habit from scratch or changing an old habit, decide on the cue and the reward. “The cue could be a time, a place, or a feeling, while the reward must be instantaneous (即时的),” explains Wendy Wood, an expert from the University of Southern California. ___17___ The prize needs to be immediate, something that makes the behavior fun. Make it easy. A recent study showed that people who travelled 8 km to the gym went once a month, but people who travelled 6 km went five or more times a month. That 2 km makes the difference between having a good exercise habit and not. ___18___ Thus, you’re more likely to achieve more. Be less critical of yourself. According to an expert, the biggest barrier to new habits is self-criticism. ___19___ Research shows that you should be kind or supportive to yourself. ___20___ Gretchen Rubin, the author of Better Than Before, says it is crucial to avoid listening to the excuses that make your habits falter (动摇), for example, “I can’t go on a run tomorrow because I have to do another thing.” Recognizing them in advance can make them less powerful. That’s the thing about excuses when you realize you’re doing it, you’re much more likely to resist. A. Spot your excuses. B. People who do this tend to be rewarded. C. Try to remove the barriers as best as you can. D. Don’t buy a new pair of shoes at the end of the week. E. It is related with less motivation and worse self-control. F. That is how your habitual mind works and it has to be easy. G. Start with baby steps like running half a mile every Monday morning 【答案】16. G 17. D 18. F 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了制定和执行计划的策略。 【16题详解】 根据空前的““What’s much more important than setting a grand goal, like running a marathon, is to set an immediate plan that you can start right away,” says Charles Duhigg, the author of The Power of Habit. (《习惯的力量》一书的作者查尔斯·杜希格说：“比设定一个宏伟的目标，比如跑马拉松，更重要的是制定一个你可以立即开始的计划。”)”可知，本空要说跟“立即开始的小目标”有关的话题，G项“Start with baby steps like running half a mile every Monday morning (从小步开始，比如每周一早上跑半英里)”能承接上文，符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据上文的““The cue could be a time, a place, or a feeling, while the reward must be instantaneous (即时的),” explains Wendy Wood, an expert from the University of Southern California. (南加州大学的专家温迪·伍德解释说：“提示可以是一个时间、一个地点或一种感觉，而奖励必须是即时的。”)”和下文“The prize needs to be immediate, something that makes the behavior fun. (奖励必须是立竿见影的，能够让行为变得有趣。)”可知，本空要说跟“即时的奖励、立竿见影的奖励”有关的话题，D项“Don’t buy a new pair of shoes at the end of the week. (不要周末买一双新鞋。)”即买鞋不要等到周末，要即刻去买来奖励自己，能承上启下，符合题意。故选D。 【18题详解】 根据上文的“Make it easy. A recent study showed that people who travelled 8 km to the gym went once a month, but people who travelled 6 km went five or more times a month. That 2 km makes the difference between having a good exercise habit and not. (让它变得简单。最近的一项研究表明，去健身房步行8公里的人每月只去一次，而步行6公里的人每月去5次或更多。这两公里的距离决定了你是否有良好的运动习惯。)” 可知，本空要说跟“习惯性思维”有关的话题，F 项“That is how your habitual mind works and it has to be easy. (这就是你习惯性思维的运作方式，它必须很容易。)”能承接上文，符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 结合上文“Be less critical of yourself. According to an expert, the biggest barrier to new habits is self-criticism. (少苛责自己。一位专家表示，养成新习惯的最大障碍是自我批评。)”可知，本空要说跟“苛责自己”有关的话题，E项“It is related with less motivation and worse self-control. (它与动力不足和自制力较差有关。)”能承接上文，符合语境，It指的是“苛责自己”。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据空后“Gretchen Rubin, the author of Better Than Before, says it is crucial to avoid listening to the excuses that make your habits falter (动摇), for example, “I can’t go on a run tomorrow because I have to do another thing.” Recognizing them in advance can make them less powerful. That’s the thing about excuses when you realize you’re doing it, you’re much more likely to resist. (《比以前更好》一书的作者格雷琴·鲁宾说，重要的是不要听信那些让你的习惯动摇的借口，比如，“我明天不能去跑步，因为我还有别的事情要做。”提前识别它们可以使它们不那么强大。当你意识到你在找借口的时候，你就更有可能抗拒。)”可知，本空要说跟“借口”有关的话题，A 项“Spot your excuses. (找出你的借口)”能引起下文，符合语境。故选A。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was struggling 11 months after I left China to pursue a Ph.D. in England.

I immediately hid it under my seat, hoping no one would take notice. Mom had really outdone herself with masala — our family’s all-time favorite dish back in India. But today, it wasn’t just about me and my lunch. A warm smile on his face, Ricky invited me, a new transfer student from India to New York city, for lunch. “Ava, come sit here!” Ricky called out, gesturing towards a vacant seat. As I made my way over, memories of those awkward lunchtimes when I studied in Kansas, one of the most conservative states, flooded back. I could still recall how everyone would wrinkle their noses and stare curiously when I unpacked my Indian food. It always made me feel like an outsider, like I didn’t belong. Therefore, before my first day in this school, I had demanded my mom pack “normal” western-style food for me. I still remembered the look on her face upon hearing it, as she signed in disappointment and confusion, “Isn’t there a moment when you feel proud of your origin?” That was hurting, but not more hurting than others’ giggles and whispers. Honestly, long queues were common in Indian restaurants in New York city, a cultural melting pot, but I wouldn’t take that risk. Unfortunately, this morning, Mom had forgotten to make sandwich or any “normal” food, so I had to bring leftovers from our dinner. At the thought of the possible oh-no-second (社死), I felt like being thrown into darkness. However, before I came back to reality, Ricky noticed my sneaking (躲躲藏藏). “What do you have for lunch?” he asked, his eyes twinkling with interest. I tried to brush it off (搪塞), claiming I wasn’t hungry. But Ricky wouldn’t let it go, and before I could protest, he had the lid of my lunchbox open and I prepared myself for such familiar responses as “Ew” or “What is that?” 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。 However, I did not get what I was expecting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】However, I did not get what I was expecting. Ricky took a deep breath, closed his eyes, and savored the aroma of the masala. Instead of the usual stares and whispers, there was only interest on Ricky’s face. His face lit up with a broad smile, asking, “You mum made masala for your lunch?” Before I could make a response, he added: “I could be dying of envy! You know what, last Sunday, my parents and I queued up for three hours in harsh cold in fifth Avenue for the new India restaurant.” He enjoyed every bite, nodding his head in approval. It was a welcome change from the stares and whispers I had grown accustomed to. After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. I came over and asked if I could have palak paneer in my lunchbox, which made her a bit confused. Finally, I told her about my experience with Ricky and how he had enjoyed my food. Mom’s face lit up with joy. “I’m glad he liked it,” she said. “And I’m even happier that you’re starting to feel proud of your roots again.” She paused and looked at me seriously. “Your culture, your traditions, and your food are all a part of who you are.” I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. Mom’s words had given me the courage to embrace my identity and share my culture with others. 【解析】 【导语】本文以午餐为线索展开，讲述了作者从印度转学到纽约，作为午餐，妈妈准备了他们家在印度一直以来最喜欢的菜——玛莎拉，但和其他同学的西餐不一样，其他同学感到很奇怪，作者感到自己被孤立了，所以要求妈妈为自己做西餐。结果一天妈妈忘记了做西餐，又做了玛莎拉，作者怕被其他同学看到，把午餐藏了起来。然而被同学Ricky发现了，Ricky打开了作者午餐盒的盖子，作者原想Ricky可能又是一番讨厌，结果这饭菜却是Ricky感兴趣，爱吃的，作者很高兴自己的饮食文化被同学认同，不再为自己的饭菜而尴尬了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“然而，我没有得到我所预料的。”可知，第一段可描写Ricky的表现和作者的预料完全不同，他对玛莎拉很感兴趣。 ②由第二段首句内容“放学后，我发现妈妈正在为明天的午餐准备三明治。”可知，第二段可描写作者告诉妈妈自己的饭菜得到同学的认同，妈妈非常高兴。 2.续写线索：感兴趣——询问——喜欢吃——告知妈妈——高兴——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①. 询问：ask/question ②. 告知：tell/inform 情绪类 ①. 兴趣：interest/taste ②. 高兴：happy/pleased/delighted 【点睛】 [高分句型1].

One great way to feel this connection is by attending some of the world’s most incredible music festivals. Sziget Festival The Sziget Festival in Budapest, Hungary, is a renowned six-day celebration of music and art on Obuda Island on the Danube River. Started in 1993, the festival is known for its diverse lineup, featuring top artists from genres like electronic, hip-hop, techno, and pop rock. Beyond music, the festival offers cultural experiences like art exhibitions, theater, circus performances, and film screenings. Glastonbury Glastonbury Music Festival is a global music fest held annually at the Worthy Farm in Somerset, England. Since its inception（开始）in 1970, it has become a touchstone for music enthusiasts worldwide, drawing more than 200,000 visitors during its remarkable five-day run. Additionally, Glastonbury is among the few festivals striving towards being completely carbon-neutral. Rock in Rio The beloved Rock in Rio festival was founded in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, in 1985．The brand has since expanded to other locations, including Lisbon, Madrid, and Las Vegas. Rock in Rio spans multiple days. While its roots are in rock music, Rock in Rio has evolved to include more genres to appeal to a much broader audience. One of Rock in Rio’s standout features is its commitment to environmental initiatives. Fuji Rock Fuji Rock is Japan’s biggest music festival, typically held in Naeba Ski Resort in Niiga ta Prefecture. Known for its stunning mountainous backdrop, this event has been running since 1997 and is celebrated for its diverse lineup that spans rock, electronic, hip-hop, and most other genres. It attracts international and local acts, creating a unique fusion of musical styles. 1. How is the Sziget Festival different from the other music festivals? A. It is documented in films. B. It is centered on classical arts. C. It hosts various cultural events. D. It features diverse music genres. 2. What do Glastonbury and Rock in Rio have in common? A. They highlight rock music. B. They last more than a week. C. They undergo global expansion. D. They adopt eco-friendly practices. 3. Which of the four music festivals has the shortest history? A. Sziget Festival. B. Glastonbury. C. Rock in Rio. D. Fuji Rock. B I had a great time with the film Turning Red, which follows Meilin, a thirteen-year-old girl who suddenly begins turning into a giant red panda. The film was set in 2002 when I would’ve been around Meilin’s age. It was a joy for me to watch a film that I could relate to. The film illustrates the push-pull that many immigrant families face: how much of their culture to keep and how much to assimilate(融入). There are beautiful traces of Chinese culture throughout this film, including gorgeous food, time around the table, relationships with extended family, and more. In the film, women in Meilin’s family suffer a curse(诅咒). As soon as they begin to blossom into womanhood, they transform into a giant red panda whenever they express any strong emotion. Thus, they have learned that emotional repression is the way to go. It was beautiful to watch this young girl choose the different path of emotional wellness instead of holding back her feelings. It’s not a surprise that the director Domee Shi, who is around my age, chose this plotline. Many people my age are on that similar path Meilin finds herself on. We honor our parents and what they have done for us, but we’re also choosing to be more emotionally healthy and trying to live differently than we were taught. The part of Turning Red I particularly loved is the ending. Though Meilin’s mom, grandma, and aunts see that it’s possible to integrate their red pandas into their lives, they don’t choose that path. Instead, they choose to bottle their pandas up once again. However, they do get a new perspective on this young, groundbreaking girl. It’s such a sweet reminder that not everyone can go on the same journey toward emotional health, and that’s okay. If all of them had embraced their pandas, I think the ending would’ve felt incredibly cheese and taken away some of the power of the story. So we get a conclusion that is satisfying and heart-warming without being too much of a fairy tale. 4 Why did the author enjoy watching Turning Red? A. She found a connection with the story. B. She followed a life path similar to its director. C. She adored the appealing design of the red panda. D. She valued its emphasis on the beautiful Chinese culture. 5. What does the underlined word “repression” in the third paragraph mean? A. Disturbance. B. Control. C. Wellness. D. Expression. 6. What does the author think of the ending of the film? A. Bittersweet. B. Idealized. C. Realistic. D. Cheesy. 7. What is the central dilemma faced by Meilin in Turning Red? A. “Can I embrace my true self?” B. “Should I prioritize my family?” C. “Can I uncover the curse’s secret?” D. “Should I explore diverse cultures?” C Yes, having a big name in science will help get your paper published, a new study confirms. Involving hundreds of researchers reviewing an economics paper, the study found that reviewers were more likely to recommend acceptance when the paper was associated with a famous author compared to a lesser-known one. The Matthew effect, a term coined in 1968 to describe this prejudice, has been a topic of concern among scientists for years. However, previous efforts to document this prejudice had limitations such as small sample sizes or lack of randomization. To address these issues, a team from the University of Innsbruck conducted an extensive study. The team sent emails to about 3,300 researchers, inviting them to review an economics paper for a real journal. The paper had two authors: Vernon Smith, a Nobel Prize winner, and Sabiou Inoua, one of Smith’s former Ph. D. students. The potential reviewers received one of three descriptions of the paper: one mentioning only Smith, another mentioning only Inoua, and a third with no author mentioned. Of the researchers who agreed to review the paper, Smith’s fame influenced their responses. When given only Smith’s name, 38.5% accepted the invitation to review, while the figures were 30.7% for those given no name and 28.5% for those given only Inoua’s name. To further avoid prejudice, the team randomly assigned the 313 reviewers who initially received no author’s name to review one of three papers: one credited to Smith alone, another to Inoua alone,and a third with no authors listed. Reviewers rated the paper credited to Smith the highest, praising its inclusion of new information and data-supported conclusions. The version with no authors received recommendations for acceptance from 24% of reviewers, more than double the percentage for the version credited only to Inoua. The team warned against evaluating identical work differently based on the author’s identity and suggested that double-blind reviews may reduce the prejudice. However, this approach may not be effective as reviewers can often identify authors through preprints or conference presentations. 8.

D “Tie an Italian’s hands behind his back,” runs an old joke, “and he’ll be speechless.” This rests on a national stereotype: Italians are talkative and emotional, and all that arm-waggling supposedly goes to prove it. Susan Goldin-Meadow of the University of Chicago has a rather different view. Emotions come out in lots of ways: facial expressions, posture, tone of voice and so on. But people are doing something different when they use gestures with speech, which she sums up in the title of her new book, “Thinking with Your Hands”. It is a masterly tour through a lifetime’s research. Virtually everyone gestures, not just Italians. Experimental subjects, told after a research session that they were being watched for gestures, apologize for not having made any — but were doing so the entire time. People born blind gesture when they speak, including to each other. A woman born without arms but with “phantom limb syndrome (幻肢综合征)” describes how she uses her phantom arms when she talks — but not when she walks. All this suggests that cognition is, to some extent, “embodied”; thinking is not all done in your head. In fact, gestures that accompany speech are a second channel of information. Subjects watch a film in which a cat runs but are told to lie and say it jumped. They do so in words — while their hands make a running motion. People who say they believe in sexual equality but gesture with their hands lower when talking about women are not indicating women’s height; they can be shown to have biases of which they may be unaware. In “The Crown” a historical drama series, Lady Diana is warned that her hands may betray her real emotions, which could be dangerous; they are tied together so she can learn to speak without gesticulating. No one who reads Susan’s book could ever again think that gesturing shows only a lack of control. It is about thinking and communication, and is a sophisticated aid to both. 12. Why does the author mention the old joke in Paragraph 1? A. To present an argument. B. To describe a scene. C. To lead in the topic. D. To clarify a doubt. 13. Which statement will Susan Goldin-Meadow probably agree with? A. The disabled seldom use gestures. B. Gestures literally embody cognition. C. Thinking only occurs inside the brain. D. Gestures are improper in communication. 14. What does the author try to prove in the last two paragraphs? A. Gestures may express what the speaker really thinks. B. People are unaware of the meanings of their gestures. C. Gesturing during speech shows only a lack of control. D. Speakers can lie more easily with the help of gestures. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Speech: A Direct Channel of Information B. Gestures: A Vital Form of Communication C. Italian’s Body Language: A National Stereotype D.

Here is their guide to making and keeping your plans. Don’t assume that your plan has to be ambitious. “What’s much more important than setting a grand goal, like running a marathon, is to set an immediate plan that you can start right away,” says Charles Duhigg, the author of The Power of Habit. “ ___16___ But many people fail to realize this.” Whether you are making a new habit from scratch or changing an old habit, decide on the cue and the reward. “The cue could be a time, a place, or a feeling, while the reward must be instantaneous (即时的),” explains Wendy Wood, an expert from the University of Southern California. ___17___ The prize needs to be immediate, something that makes the behavior fun. Make it easy. A recent study showed that people who travelled 8 km to the gym went once a month, but people who travelled 6 km went five or more times a month. That 2 km makes the difference between having a good exercise habit and not. ___18___ Thus, you’re more likely to achieve more. Be less critical of yourself. According to an expert, the biggest barrier to new habits is self-criticism. ___19___ Research shows that you should be kind or supportive to yourself. ___20___ Gretchen Rubin, the author of Better Than Before, says it is crucial to avoid listening to the excuses that make your habits falter (动摇), for example, “I can’t go on a run tomorrow because I have to do another thing.” Recognizing them in advance can make them less powerful. That’s the thing about excuses when you realize you’re doing it, you’re much more likely to resist. A. Spot your excuses. B. People who do this tend to be rewarded. C. Try to remove the barriers as best as you can. D. Don’t buy a new pair of shoes at the end of the week. E. It is related with less motivation and worse self-control. F. That is how your habitual mind works and it has to be easy. G.

I immediately hid it under my seat, hoping no one would take notice. Mom had really outdone herself with masala — our family’s all-time favorite dish back in India. But today, it wasn’t just about me and my lunch. A warm smile on his face, Ricky invited me, a new transfer student from India to New York city, for lunch. “Ava, come sit here!” Ricky called out, gesturing towards a vacant seat. As I made my way over, memories of those awkward lunchtimes when I studied in Kansas, one of the most conservative states, flooded back. I could still recall how everyone would wrinkle their noses and stare curiously when I unpacked my Indian food. It always made me feel like an outsider, like I didn’t belong. Therefore, before my first day in this school, I had demanded my mom pack “normal” western-style food for me. I still remembered the look on her face upon hearing it, as she signed in disappointment and confusion, “Isn’t there a moment when you feel proud of your origin?” That was hurting, but not more hurting than others’ giggles and whispers. Honestly, long queues were common in Indian restaurants in New York city, a cultural melting pot, but I wouldn’t take that risk. Unfortunately, this morning, Mom had forgotten to make sandwich or any “normal” food, so I had to bring leftovers from our dinner. At the thought of the possible oh-no-second (社死), I felt like being thrown into darkness. However, before I came back to reality, Ricky noticed my sneaking (躲躲藏藏). “What do you have for lunch?” he asked, his eyes twinkling with interest. I tried to brush it off (搪塞), claiming I wasn’t hungry. But Ricky wouldn’t let it go, and before I could protest, he had the lid of my lunchbox open and I prepared myself for such familiar responses as “Ew” or “What is that?” 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。 However, I did not get what I was expecting. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After school, I found Mom preparing sandwich for tomorrow’s lunch. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1-5 CCBBA 6-10 BABAC 11-15 ACABB 16-20 CACBB 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
