第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Here is a selection of the world’s most unusual buildings that define a place through inventive ways of adapting to local environments.
The floating (流动的) homes of Lake Titicaca
More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros’ mainland villages. To resist this threat, the Uros began to build the floating islands with the water- resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the Uros community.
The perfect desert town: Ghadames
Ghadames is an impressive example of environmental planning. Thick walls delay the sun’s heat entering a building during the day, and radiate that heat back to the sky at night. By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means.
Spain’s fairy-tale houses
Known as pallozas, the round houses are built from just a handful of materials: stone, wood and dry grass. Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient.
The Himalayas’ ancient design
The structures in Himachal Pradesh were built by an ancient technique known as Kath kuni. Wood and stones create a fantastic balance. The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake.
21. Which structure was built for defending residents against attackers?
A. The Kath kuni structure. B. The floating structure.
C. The Ghadames structure. D. The palloza’s structure.
22. What do the houses in Ghadames and pallozas have in common?
A. They are sustainable. B. They maximize internal heat.
C. They are built for luxury living. D. They’re made of special materials.
23. What makes Kath kuni structures earthquake-resistant?
A. The stone frames. B. The narrow openings.
C. The flexible wood. D. An interlocking system.
B
In the heart of the Kanien’keha Nation (卡尼恩克哈部族) in Canada, McComber, a native language teacher reflected on a question raised by Maori (毛利) language advocate Sir Karetu: what was his dream for the future of his language?
Kanien’keha, the Mohawk language, is endangered, and for decades, McComber has worked hard to operate a native language school. At the turn of the century, as it encountered more barriers, McComber looked around the world for help and inspiration, and Karetu was the answer. “Don’t wait for money or approval; just do the work,” Karetu told him. It’s the same message Karetu carried with him decades ago, when te reo Maori, the Maori language, was also on the line.
In the early 1970s, young Maori advocates in New Zealand marched to the government, demanding Maori be taught in all public schools. In 1982, Dame Iritana Tawhiwhirangi established Kohanga Reo, an engaging language program where Maori was the only language taught, spoken and used both in the classroom and at home, and the courses focused on their history and culture. “Grandparents became teachers,” she says. “The difference-maker was that the Kohanga Reo was entirely community-led. Families raised the money to rent classroom spaces, and volunteers planned and taught classes.”
Translated in English as “language nest”, the Kohanga Reo model quickly became an important cultural export and inspired other minority communities worldwide. “Our parents ruled,” a student of McComber’s nest school says, “They wanted to teach us the beauty of our language, our culture, and who we are. And it has given me the confidence to speak and read with ease in both English and Kanien’keha.”
The model helped communities view the world through their ancestors’ eyes, ensuring the survival of their way of life. “It’s not just about language,” McComber can now answer that question. “It’s everything.”
24. Why did McComber turn to Karetu for help?
A. Karetu also spoke Kanien’keha. B. Karetu once faced a similar crisis.
C. He needed his financial support. D. He desired his tips on language learning.
25. What contributed to the success of Kohanga Reo?
A. Expansion of public schools. B. Flexibility of the courses.
C. Rule of the students’ parents. D. Support from the community.
26. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The impact of the Kohanga Reo model. B. The importance of parents’ involvement.
C. The procedure for building the nest school. D. The case of a student finding his real identity.
27. By saying “It’s everything”, McComber suggests ______.
A guaranteeing the survival of their own schools B. keeping their culture for future generations
C. purifying their unique minority language D. practicing the tradition of their ancestors
C
Are you an open book, your face broadcasting every passing emotion, or more of a poker face, not showing what you are feeling? Scientists at Nottingham Trent University say that wearing your heart on your face, could actually give you a significant social advantage.
The study, led by Eithne Kavanagh, a research fellow at NTU’s School of Social Sciences, involving over 1,300 participants, noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly, this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality. People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts, with different social partners, and even over time periods up to four months.
The researchers say that facial expressiveness is linked to personality, with more agreeable individuals displaying more lively faces. Facial expressiveness can also translate into concrete social benefits. In a negotiation task, more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward. The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks, dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts. Across the board, the results point to facial expressiveness serving an“ affiliative (亲和) function,” or a social glue that develops liking and smoother interactions.
Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more “readable,” suggesting that a lively face makes one’s intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. Beyond frequency of facial movements, people who employ facial expressions more strategically to suit social goals, such as looking friendly in a greeting, are also more well- liked.
The findings challenge the “poker face” common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous. Instead, they suggest that for most people, allowing one’s face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions. As the researchers conclude, “Being facially expressive is socially advantageous.” So, the next time you catch yourself making lines on your forehead, or flashing a smile, know that your face just might be working overtime on your behalf.
28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the study?
A. Its impact. B. Its findings. C. Its limitations. D. Its significance.
29. What may facial expressiveness serve as in negotiation settings?
A. A way to frighten competitors.
B. A method to hide personalities.
C. A tool to show personal quality.
D. A strategy to settle disagreement.
30. What does the underlined word “decipher” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A Copy. B. Overlook. C. Remember D. Interpret.
31. What may the author advise based on the findings of the study?
A. Always wearing a still face. B. Learning to be an open book.
C. Speaking out inner emotions. D. Forcing a smile through tears.
D
Can you think of someone who is an excellent communicator? He must have good skills of speaking confidently in various situations, including presentations, group discussions and activities. Also, he should be good at listening to others, understanding group dynamics, and promoting shared decision-making.
Research on classroom-based group work reveals a paradox (悖论): while cooperative learning can be highly effective, merely placing children in groups often proves unproductive. The solution lies in teaching children how to cooperate effectively. Teachers play a crucial role in this process through their interaction with students.
To ensure effective group work, teachers must first raise students’ awareness of the purpose and value of group activities. More importantly, they need to teach students how to engage in reasoned discussions, known as Exploratory Talk. This involves considering everyone’s viewpoints, justifying opinions with reasons, and making collective decisions. In Exploratory Talk, participants engage critically but constructively with each other’s ideas, invite contributions, and seek further explanations.
Successful cooperation requires a reasoned discussion, which can be facilitated by establishing a set of “Ground Rules” for Exploratory Talk. These rules guide behaviors such as asking for information, seeking and providing reasons, and evaluating proposals. Ground Rules help children work towards joint conclusions, respect opinions, and develop their ideas. For instance, children learn to ask, “What do you think? Why?” and listen attentively to each other’s responses, reaching reasoned conclusions.
Exploratory Talk enhances group activities as a powerful learning tool. Certain activities, like Talking Points, are particularly effective in stimulating such discussions. Talking Points are inspiring statements designed to encourage children to share their knowledge and uncertainties on a specific topic. Research indicates that Talking Points bring about more imaginative and extensive responses than traditional questions. They help children focus on the topic and compare their viewpoints with others. As they discuss, children realize that their ideas can develop with new evidence and that classmates are valuable resources for new thinking. With proper guidance, the students will soon begin to see their ideas flowing. And gradually they will learn to participate fully not only in education but also in life as well.
32 What may help solve the group work paradox?
A. Active interaction among teachers. B. Group learning among students.
C. Teachers’ effective guidance. D. Students’ deep engagement.
33. Why should Ground Rules be set for the students?
A. To popularize group activities. B. To build up their individuality.
C. To stimulate more proposals. D. To encourage reasoning in talks.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Students should be challenged with uncertainties.
B. Traditional questions should be avoided in classes.
C. Well-designed brainstorming matters in group activities.
D. Idea exchanges between the students deserve top priority.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Why putting children in groups doesn’t always work
B. What effects a good communicator has on discussion
C. Whether teachers should use Exploratory Talk or not
D. Where students’ participation in activities should go
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。
In Chinese traditional architecture, a skywell is an open courtyard or well-like space usually located at the heart of a building or group of buildings.____36____ Their designs often feature the classic Chinese dou gong overhangs to provide shade and collect water into a central basin.
Chinese skywells are so effective in cooling homes because they can control natural airing. Cool air is drawn into the building from the lower levels, and warm air escapes and rises through the upper levels. ____37____
The skywell’s layout and construction materials also help in thermal(热量的)regulation. During the day, the courtyard absorbs heat from the sun, acting as a thermal mass.____38____This day-night cycle helps maintain a balanced and consistent temperature indoors.
Most traditional skywells include water features, such as fountains or ponds. A recent study has shown that the most significant part of a skywell’s cooling effect comes from these water bodies.____39____As water evaporates(蒸发)from these features, it absorbs heat from the surrounding air. This reduces the temperature within the courtyard and surrounding rooms.
____40____One fitting example is the National Heavy Vehicle Engineering Technology Research Centre in Jinan,an 18-story building that has a giant open space at its heart from the fifth floor to the top floor. The toilets, elevators, and meeting rooms surround this space. This enhances natural airing and natural energy consumption, according to the Shanghai-based CCDI Group.
A. This promotes fresh air flow,especially during hot summer days.
B. It is often a square surrounded by the building’s rooms and wings.
C. This cooling was disadvantageous in regions with hot and dry climates.
D. It’s probably why temperatures around them are 2.6℃ to 4.2℃ lower.
E. These wonders continue to inspire architects to seek sustainable solutions.
F. The magic of skywells stands as witnesses to the wisdom of ancient builders.
G. The stored heat is gradually released as the outdoor temperature drops at night.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a sunny Friday afternoon. My assignment was to record the 400-meter race in the sports meet. All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike other competitors, he was quite relaxed, standing beside the track and stretching himself.
“Tommy! I bet you’ll win.” I yelled at him. “Just wait and see!” A big smile spread across his face.
“May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the registration office.” A gentle voice caught our attention.
“Tommy, your show time!” I shouted and gave him a thumb-up.
Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to shoot.
With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive power from long-term training. But there was one problem for me-I had to spare every effort to control my excitement in order to keep my shooting picture stable.
“Come on, Tommy!” Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by step.
Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the crowd.
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。
Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard.

The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion.

M: Yes. The only problem is that there aren’t any cheap seats. It’s all one price.
W: Well, in that case we could sit right at the front. We can have a really good view.
M: Maybe, though I think if you sit at the back, you can actually hear the whole thing better.
W: Fine, fine, as you wish. Where shall we go there?
M: How about this Sunday? The seventeenth of June or the twenty second of June?
W: I prefer the latter one.
M: Copy that.

M: I know her. She has millions of followers.
W: Yeah, her latest video talks about the British personality. You know, the famous British reserve.
M: Ha-ha-ha. I see. It just means we aren’t very friendly or very open. So, do you think it’s true?
W: It’s hard to say, but Lily says Britons are too shy to make friends with others.
M: Look at Americans, we speak the same language, but they are much more open. And you see it when Americans travel, they speak with strangers, often on the train. British people seldom do that, not in London anyway.
W: People may be different in other parts of your country, isn’t it?
M: Not completely, you know what they say, “An Englishman’s home is his castle. It’s really difficult to get inside.”
W: Yeah, Lily also mentions it being private. You go home to your house and your garden and you close the door. It’s your place.
M: That’s why the British don’t like flats. They prefer to live in houses.

【答案】18. A 19. B 20. C
【解析】
【原文】Kites may date back as far as 3000 years. About 25 centuries ago, kites were well known in China. These first kites were probably made of wood. They may even have been covered with silk. Early kites were built for certain uses. In ancient China, they were used to carry ropes to cross rivers. It’s said that one general flew musical kites over the enemy’s camp. The enemy fled out of great fear. In the thirteenth century, as Marco Polo wrote in his book, a trader named Adam Smith’s tied some armed soldiers to a huge kite and launched the kite with wind. By the fifteenth century, many people flew kites in Europe. Marco Polo may have brought the kite back from his visit to China. In late 1500s, kite flying was first mentioned in England in a popular book by John Bate.
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C、D)四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Here is a selection of the world’s most unusual buildings that define a place through inventive ways of adapting to local environments.
The floating (流动的) homes of Lake Titicaca
More than 500 years ago, the growing Inca Empire began to occupy the Uros’ mainland villages. To resist this threat, the Uros began to build the floating islands with the water- resistant plant called totora, which grows in the lake and is the lifeblood of the Uros community.
The perfect desert town: Ghadames
Ghadames is an impressive example of environmental planning. Thick walls delay the sun’s heat entering a building during the day, and radiate that heat back to the sky at night. By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means.
Spain’s fairy-tale houses
Known as pallozas, the round houses are built from just a handful of materials: stone, wood and dry grass. Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient.
The Himalayas’ ancient design
The structures in Himachal Pradesh were built by an ancient technique known as Kath kuni. Wood and stones create a fantastic balance. The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake.
21. Which structure was built for defending residents against attackers?
A. The Kath kuni structure. B. The floating structure.
C The Ghadames structure. D. The palloza’s structure.
22. What do the houses in Ghadames and pallozas have in common?
A. They are sustainable. B. They maximize internal heat.
C. They are built for luxury living. D. They’re made of special materials.
23. What makes Kath kuni structures earthquake-resistant?
A. The stone frames. B. The narrow openings.
C. The flexible wood. D. An interlocking system.
【答案】21. B 22. A 23. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。介绍了四个世界上最不寻常的建筑。

By morning, the walls have cooled again. Skilful use of available building materials achieves the maximum comfort with minimal means.(Ghadames是环境规划的一个令人印象深刻的例子。厚厚的墙壁在白天延迟太阳的热量进入建筑物,并在晚上将热量辐射回天空。到了早晨,墙壁又冷却了。巧妙地使用现有的建筑材料,以最小的手段达到最大的舒适度)”以及第四段“Thick stone walls depending on what was available in the area block the cold and conserve internal heat. Inside, the palloza’s fireplaces are essential for maintaining a constant temperature, making it energy-efficient.(厚厚的石墙(取决于该地区可用的材料)可以阻挡寒冷并保存内部热量。在内部,palloza的壁炉对保持恒温至关重要,使其节能)”可知,Ghadames和pallozas的房子的共同之处是都是可持续的。故选A。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The wooden frames (框架) lessen the stress on the openings during an earthquake. Thick stones hold the whole building firmly in place. Above all, pieces of wood interlock together, which makes the structures remarkably flexible, allowing walls to move in case of an earthquake.(木制框架减轻了地震时开口的压力。厚厚的石头把整座建筑牢牢地固定住了。最重要的是,木片联锁在一起,这使得结构非常灵活,允许墙壁在地震时移动)”可知,联锁系统让凯斯库尼的建筑抗震。故选D。
B
In the heart of the Kanien’keha Nation (卡尼恩克哈部族) in Canada McComber, a native language teacher reflected on a question raised by Maori (毛利) language advocate Sir Karetu: what was his dream for the future of his language?
Kanien’keha, the Mohawk language, is endangered, and for decades, McComber has worked hard to operate a native language school. At the turn of the century, as it encountered more barriers, McComber looked around the world for help and inspiration, and Karetu was the answer. “Don’t wait for money or approval; just do the work,” Karetu told him. It’s the same message Karetu carried with him decades ago, when te reo Maori, the Maori language, was also on the line.
In the early 1970s, young Maori advocates in New Zealand marched to the government, demanding Maori be taught in all public schools. In 1982, Dame Iritana Tawhiwhirangi established Kohanga Reo, an engaging language program where Maori was the only language taught, spoken and used both in the classroom and at home, and the courses focused on their history and culture. “Grandparents became teachers,” she says. “The difference-maker was that the Kohanga Reo was entirely community-led. Families raised the money to rent classroom spaces, and volunteers planned and taught classes.”
Translated in English as “language nest”, the Kohanga Reo model quickly became an important cultural export and inspired other minority communities worldwide. “Our parents ruled,” a student of McComber’s nest school says, “They wanted to teach us the beauty of our language, our culture, and who we are. And it has given me the confidence to speak and read with ease in both English and Kanien’keha.”
The model helped communities view the world through their ancestors’ eyes, ensuring the survival of their way of life. “It’s not just about language,” McComber can now answer that question. “It’s everything.”
24. Why did McComber turn to Karetu for help?
A. Karetu also spoke Kanien’keha. B. Karetu once faced a similar crisis.
C. He needed his financial support. D. He desired his tips on language learning.
25. What contributed to the success of Kohanga Reo?
A. Expansion of public schools. B. Flexibility of the courses.
C. Rule of the students’ parents. D. Support from the community.
26. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The impact of the Kohanga Reo model. B. The importance of parents’ involvement.
C. The procedure for building the nest school. D. The case of a student finding his real identity.
27. By saying “It’s everything”, McComber suggests ______.
A. guaranteeing the survival of their own schools B. keeping their culture for future generations
C. purifying their unique minority language D. practicing the tradition of their ancestors
【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要说明了莫霍克语Kanien’ keha已经濒临灭绝,为了保护这种语言McComber寻求社会的支持和帮助,建立了Kohanga Reo模式。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“At the turn of the century, as it encountered more barriers, McComber looked around the world for help and inspiration, and Karetu was the answer. “Don’t wait for money or approval; just do the work,” Karetu told him. It’s the same message Karetu carried with him decades ago, when te reo Maori, the Maori language, was also on the line.(在世纪之交,当它遇到更多的障碍时,麦康伯向世界各地寻求帮助和灵感,而卡雷图就是答案。“不要等待金钱或认可;做你该做的,”卡雷图告诉他。几十年前,当te reo Maori(毛利人的语言)也处于危险之中时,Karetu也带着同样的信息)”可知,McComber向Karetu寻求帮助是因为Karetu曾经面临过类似的危机。故选B。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段““Grandparents became teachers,” she says. “The difference-maker was that the Kohanga Reo was entirely community-led. Families raised the money to rent classroom spaces, and volunteers planned and taught classes.”(“祖父母成了老师,”她说。“造成差异的原因是,Kohanga Reo完全由社区主导。家庭集资租用教室空间,志愿者策划并教授课程。”)”可知,来自社会的支持促成了Kohanga Reo的成功。故选D。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Translated in English as “language nest”, the Kohanga Reo model quickly became an important cultural export and inspired other minority communities worldwide. “Our parents ruled,” a student of McComber’s nest school says, “They wanted to teach us the beauty of our language, our culture, and who we are. And it has given me the confidence to speak and read with ease in both English and Kanien’keha.”(Kohanga Reo模式在英语中被翻译为“语言之巢”,迅速成为一种重要的文化输出,并激励了世界各地的其他少数民族社区。“我们的父母说了算,”麦康伯所在学校的一名学生说,“他们想教我们语言之美、文化之美,以及我们是谁。它给了我信心,让我可以轻松地用英语和卡尼亚语说话和阅读。”)”可知,第4段主要讲了Kohanga Reo模式的影响。故选A。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The model helped communities view the world through their ancestors’ eyes, ensuring the survival of their way of life. “It’s not just about language,” McComber can now answer that question. “It’s everything.”(该模式帮助社区通过祖先的眼睛看世界,确保了他们的生活方式的生存。“这不仅仅是语言的问题,”McComber现在可以回答这个问题。“这一切。”)”可知,通过说“这就是一切”,McComber建议为后代保留他们的文化。故选B。
C
Are you an open book, your face broadcasting every passing emotion, or more of a poker face, not showing what you are feeling? Scientists at Nottingham Trent University say that wearing your heart on your face, could actually give you a significant social advantage.
The study led by Eithne Kavanagh, a research fellow at NTU’s School of Social Sciences, involving over 1,300 participants, noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly, this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality. People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts, with different social partners, and even over time periods up to four months.
The researchers say that facial expressiveness is linked to personality, with more agreeable individuals displaying more lively faces. Facial expressiveness can also translate into concrete social benefits. In a negotiation task, more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward. The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks, dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts. Across the board, the results point to facial expressiveness serving an“ affiliative (亲和) function,” or a social glue that develops liking and smoother interactions.
Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more “readable,” suggesting that a lively face makes one’s intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. Beyond frequency of facial movements, people who employ facial expressions more strategically to suit social goals, such as looking friendly in a greeting, are also more well- liked.
The findings challenge the “poker face” common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous. Instead, they suggest that for most people, allowing one’s face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions. As the researchers conclude, “Being facially expressive is socially advantageous.” So, the next time you catch yourself making lines on your forehead, or flashing a smile, know that your face just might be working overtime on your behalf.
28. What does Paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the study?
A. Its impact. B. Its findings. C. Its limitations. D. Its significance.
29. What may facial expressiveness serve as in negotiation settings?
A. A way to frighten competitors.
B. A method to hide personalities.
C. A tool to show personal quality.
D. A strategy to settle disagreement.
30. What does the underlined word “decipher” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Copy. B. Overlook. C. Remember D. Interpret.
31. What may the author advise based on the findings of the study?
A. Always wearing a still face. B. Learning to be an open book.
C. Speaking out inner emotions. D. Forcing a smile through tears.
【答案】28. B 29. D 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项科学研究,研究表明面部表情丰富的人在社交中有显著优势,这种优势可以转化为具体的社交利益。文章最后指出,对于大多数人来说,让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热烈的反应。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“The study, led by Eithne Kavanagh, a research fellow at NTU’s School of Social Sciences, involving over 1,300 participants, noticed striking variations in how much people moved their faces during conversations. Importantly, this expressiveness emerged as a stable individual quality. People displayed similar levels of facial expressiveness across different contexts, with different social partners, and even over time periods up to four months. (这项研究由诺丁汉特伦特大学社会科学学院研究员Eithne Kavanagh领导,有1300多名参与者。研究注意到人们在谈话中面部动作的多少存在显著差异。重要的是,这种表现力成为一种稳定的个人品质。人们在不同的情境中、与不同的社交伙伴在一起时,甚至在长达四个月的时间段内,都表现出相似程度的面部表情丰富度。)”可知,本段主要介绍了研究发现人们在谈话中面部动作的多少存在显著差异,而且是一种稳定的个人品质。因此,本段主要在讲这项研究的发现。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“In a negotiation task, more expressive individuals are more likely to secure a larger slice of a reward. The researchers suggest that for agreeable folks, dynamic facial expressions may serve as a tool for building good relationship and smoothing over conflicts.(在谈判任务中,更有表现力的人更有可能获得更大的奖励。研究人员建议,对于和蔼可亲的人来说,动态面部表情可能是建立良好关系和缓和矛盾的工具)”可知,在谈判中,面部表情可能是建立良好关系和缓和矛盾的工具,帮助有表现力的人获得更大利益。因此,面部表情在谈判环境中可能作为一种解决分歧的策略。故选D项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词所在句“Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more ‘readable,’ suggesting that a lively face makes one’s intentions and mental states easier for others to decipher. (表情丰富也与被认为更“可读”有关,这表明一张生动的脸让人的意图和精神状态更容易被decipher)”中“Expressiveness is also linked to being seen as more ‘readable,’”可知,丰富的表情更“可读”,即更容易被理解和解读,所以“一张生动的脸更容易被人解读意图和精神状态”。划线词decipher与interpret同义,意为“解读”。故选D项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The findings challenge the ‘poker face’ common belief that a still and unemotional appearance is always most advantageous. Instead, they suggest that for most people, allowing one’s face to mirror inner states and intentions can invite warmer reactions. (这些发现挑战了‘扑克脸’的普遍信念,即静止不动、面无表情的外表总是最有利的。相反,它们表明,对于大多数人来说,让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热情的反应)”可知,研究表明面部表情丰富的人在社交中有显著优势,所以对于大多数人来说,让自己的脸反映内心的状态和意图可以引发更热情的反应。因此作者可能建议我们要学会像一本打开的书一样,不要隐藏自己的情感和意图,要通过面部表情表达出来。故选B项。
D
Can you think of someone who is an excellent communicator? He must have good skills of speaking confidently in various situations, including presentations, group discussions and activities. Also, he should be good at listening to others, understanding group dynamics, and promoting shared decision-making.
Research on classroom-based group work reveals a paradox (悖论): while cooperative learning can be highly effective, merely placing children in groups often proves unproductive. The solution lies in teaching children how to cooperate effectively. Teachers play a crucial role in this process through their interaction with students.
To ensure effective group work, teachers must first raise students’ awareness of the purpose and value of group activities. More importantly, they need to teach students how to engage in reasoned discussions, known as Exploratory Talk. This involves considering everyone’s viewpoints, justifying opinions with reasons, and making collective decisions. In Exploratory Talk, participants engage critically but constructively with each other’s ideas, invite contributions, and seek further explanations.
Successful cooperation requires a reasoned discussion, which can be facilitated by establishing a set of “Ground Rules” for Exploratory Talk. These rules guide behaviors such as asking for information, seeking and providing reasons, and evaluating proposals. Ground Rules help children work towards joint conclusions, respect opinions, and develop their ideas. For instance, children learn to ask, “What do you think? Why?” and listen attentively to each other’s responses, reaching reasoned conclusions.
Exploratory Talk enhances group activities as a powerful learning tool. Certain activities, like Talking Points, are particularly effective in stimulating such discussions. Talking Points are inspiring statements designed to encourage children to share their knowledge and uncertainties on a specific topic. Research indicates that Talking Points bring about more imaginative and extensive responses than traditional questions. They help children focus on the topic and compare their viewpoints with others. As they discuss, children realize that their ideas can develop with new evidence and that classmates are valuable resources for new thinking. With proper guidance, the students will soon begin to see their ideas flowing. And gradually they will learn to participate fully not only in education but also in life as well.
32. What may help solve the group work paradox?
A. Active interaction among teachers. B. Group learning among students.
C. Teachers’ effective guidance. D. Students’ deep engagement.
33. Why should Ground Rules be set for the students?
A. To popularize group activities. B. To build up their individuality.
C. To stimulate more proposals. D. To encourage reasoning in talks.
34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Students should be challenged with uncertainties.
B. Traditional questions should be avoided in classes.
C. Well-designed brainstorming matters in group activities.
D. Idea exchanges between the students deserve top priority.
35. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. Why putting children in groups doesn’t always work
B. What effects a good communicator has on discussion
C. Whether teachers should use Exploratory Talk or not
D. Where students’ participation in activities should go
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. C 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要解释了什么是小组工作悖论,以及教室如何来解决这一悖论,让小组学习变得有效。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“To ensure effective group work, teachers must first raise students’ awareness of the purpose and value of group activities. More importantly, they need to teach students how to engage in reasoned discussions, known as Exploratory Talk.(为了确保有效的小组工作,教师必须首先提高学生对小组活动的目的和价值的认识。更重要的是,他们需要教学生如何进行理性的讨论,也就是所谓的探索性谈话)”可知,教师的有效指导可以帮助解决小组工作悖论。故选C。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Successful cooperation requires a reasoned discussion, which can be facilitated by establishing a set of “Ground Rules” for Exploratory Talk. These rules guide behaviors such as asking for information, seeking and providing reasons, and evaluating proposals. Ground Rules help children work towards joint conclusions, respect opinions, and develop their ideas.(成功的合作需要理性的讨论,这可以通过建立一套探索性谈话的“基本规则”来促进。这些规则指导诸如询问信息、寻找并提供理由以及评估建议等行为。基本规则帮助孩子们得出共同的结论,尊重意见,并发展他们的想法)”可知,为学生制定基本规则是为了在谈话中鼓励推理。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Exploratory Talk enhances group activities as a powerful learning tool. Certain activities, like Talking Points, are particularly effective in stimulating such discussions. Talking Points are inspiring statements designed to encourage children to share their knowledge and uncertainties on a specific topic. Research indicates that Talking Points bring about more imaginative and extensive responses than traditional questions. They help children focus on the topic and compare their viewpoints with others.(探索性谈话作为一种强大的学习工具,加强了小组活动。某些活动,如“谈话要点”,在激发此类讨论方面特别有效。谈话要点是鼓舞人心的陈述,旨在鼓励孩子们分享他们对特定主题的知识和不确定性。研究表明,谈话要点比传统问题能带来更有想象力和更广泛的回答。它们帮助孩子专注于主题,并将自己的观点与他人的观点进行比较)”可知,精心设计的头脑风暴在小组活动中很重要。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“Research on classroom-based group work reveals a paradox (悖论): while cooperative learning can be highly effective, merely placing children in groups often proves unproductive.(对课堂小组作业的研究揭示了一个悖论:虽然合作学习可以非常有效,但仅仅将孩子们分组往往被证明是无效的)”结合文章主要解释了什么是小组工作悖论,以及教室如何来解决这一悖论,让小组学习变得有效。由此可知,A选项“为什么把孩子分组并不总是有效”最符合文章标题。故选A。

In Chinese traditional architecture, a skywell is an open courtyard or well-like space usually located at the heart of a building or group of buildings.____36____ Their designs often feature the classic Chinese dou gong overhangs to provide shade and collect water into a central basin.
Chinese skywells are so effective in cooling homes because they can control natural airing. Cool air is drawn into the building from the lower levels, and warm air escapes and rises through the upper levels. ____37____
The skywell’s layout and construction materials also help in thermal(热量的)regulation. During the day, the courtyard absorbs heat from the sun, acting as a thermal mass.____38____This day-night cycle helps maintain a balanced and consistent temperature indoors.
Most traditional skywells include water features, such as fountains or ponds. A recent study has shown that the most significant part of a skywell’s cooling effect comes from these water bodies.____39____As water evaporates(蒸发)from these features, it absorbs heat from the surrounding air. This reduces the temperature within the courtyard and surrounding rooms.
____40____One fitting example is the National Heavy Vehicle Engineering Technology Research Centre in Jinan,an 18-story building that has a giant open space at its heart from the fifth floor to the top floor. The toilets, elevators, and meeting rooms surround this space. This enhances natural airing and natural energy consumption, according to the Shanghai-based CCDI Group.
A. This promotes fresh air flow,especially during hot summer days.
B. It is often a square surrounded by the building’s rooms and wings.
C. This cooling was disadvantageous in regions with hot and dry climates.
D. It’s probably why temperatures around them are 2.6℃ to 4.2℃ lower.
E. These wonders continue to inspire architects to seek sustainable solutions.
F. The magic of skywells stands as witnesses to the wisdom of ancient builders.
G. The stored heat is gradually released as the outdoor temperature drops at night.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
It was a sunny Friday afternoon. My assignment was to record the 400-meter race in the sports meet. All the students in our class were sitting anxiously except one, a tall handsome boy named Tommy who was considered the one most likely to win the race. Even, unlike other competitors, he was quite relaxed, standing beside the track and stretching himself.
“Tommy! I bet you’ll win.” I yelled at him. “Just wait and see!” A big smile spread across his face.
“May I have your attention, please? All the athletes are requested to proceed to the registration office.” A gentle voice caught our attention.
“Tommy, your show time!” I shouted and gave him a thumb-up.
Then, I saw all the athletes went to register, preparing for the game. Soon they were all on the starting line. Taking the best recording location, I raised my smartphone, ready to shoot.
With the loud sound of the starting gun, all the competitors threw themselves forwards from the starting line like arrows. Tommy quickly took the lead with his excellent explosive power from long-term training. But there was one problem for me-I had to spare every effort to control my excitement in order to keep my shooting picture stable.
“Come on, Tommy!” Still, I could hear the cheers of our classmates higher and higher. It seemed that Tommy had heard the powerful shouts and became full of strength. He kept adjusting his breath, maintaining a steady rhythm, and approaching the finish line step by step.
Finally, with the cheers of the audience, Tommy crossed the finish line almost at the same time with the second-place finisher. How I wish I could rush to him and give him a big bear hug! But I could not. I had to finish recording the whole race, so I waited until the last competitor crossed the finish line. Suddenly, I noticed there was an unusual noise from the crowd.
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。
Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Tommy was ranked second on the scoreboard. Feeling puzzled, Tommy immediately found the judge and pointed out this mistake politely. However, the second-place finisher insisted he was the winner. No one could tell exactly what had happened. Tommy was at a loss what to do, feeling frustrated. Then it suddenly occurred to me that I had recorded the whole process. Rushing to the judge, I showed him the video, which clarified the fact that it was Tommy who first arrived.
The judge admitted the error and announced Tommy was the real champion. After learning the truth, the audience broke into thunderous applause. Tommy shouldered his way through the crowd, gate ring me in his arms with a proud smile on his face. We both knew this was not just a victory of a race, but also a victory of sticking to the truth and daring to fight for it in the face of injustice.
