B New Scientist magazine’s chief reporter Adam Vaughan recently published “How your day will look in a carbon-neutral(碳中和) world.” Here, he imagines what a typical day would be like in the future-through the eyes of Isla, “a child in 2050”-after we’ve cut carbon emissions(排放). Vaughan acknowledges the writing is out of imagination but it is concluded by research, expert opinion, and experiments happening right now. Isla lives in the United Kingdom— will it still be a united kingdom in 2050? -and her life looks pretty much like life does today: She has a house, a car and a job. There are forests, and giant machines taking carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere. It all sounds like a green and pleasant land, but it didn’t sound like the future to me. It’s just like the life we are living now. It’s an interesting exercise, imagining what it will be like in about 30 years. I thought I would give it a try: Here is my story about Edie, living in Toronto, Canada in 2050. Edie’s alarm goes off at 4:00 a. m. She gets up, folds up the bed in the garage that is her apartment and workshop. She considers herself to be very lucky to have this garage. The only people that live in houses these days are multi-millionaires from all over the world, especially from Arizona and other southern states, wishing to move to Canada with its cooler climate and plentiful water. They can afford the million-dollar immigrant visa fee. At that time, there are no office or industrial jobs anymore: Artificial Intelligence and robots will take care of that. The few jobs left are in service, culture or health care. Luckily, Edie has her job. She checks the balance in her Personal Carbon Allowance (PCA) account to see if she has enough to buy another battery for her e-bike. If she doesn’t have enough then she will have to buy carbon credits, and they. are expensive. She sets her alarm for 6:00 p. m. when the streets of Toronto will come alive again on this hot November day. 24．What can we know about Adam Vaughan’s passage? A．It is about creative imagination. B．It mainly describes advance in science. C．It focuses on solutions to carbon emissions. D．It is his vision of the future. 25．What does the author think of Isla’s life? A．Frightening. B．Ordinary. C．Ideal. D．Pleasant. 26．Why do people like Canada according to Edie? A．People want to get better education. B．The living expense there is rather low. C．It has a cool and comfortable temperature. D．The water in Canada hasn’t been polluted. 27．What does the author intend to tell us? A．Two women’s entirely different lives. B．What our life will be like in 2050. C．A look into Adam Vaughan’s Life. D．How we can handle our account well. C According to the UN report, nearly 54 million tons of e-waste was generated around the world in 2019 and will reach 74.7 million tons by 2030. It includes everything from phones and computer monitors to larger items like refrigerators and old fax machine. Rwanda is one of only 13 countries in Africa that have passed a national law regarding e-waste rule.· It has led to the first official recycling: and reusing facility in the country. Operational since early last year, this public-private partnership between the government and Enviroserve became a source of pride for Rwanda. The plant can process up to 10,000 tons of e-waste per year. According to managing director Olivier Mbera, Enviroserve has already repaired and reused more than 5,000 computers, which were sold to public schools. To date, it has processed more than 4,000 tons of e-waste and created more than 600 jobs. Conveyor belts (传送带) sort plastics from metals, while particular space collects phosphor (磷) from old tube TVs. Circuit boards (电路板) pile up in bags and batteries are constantly being tested. Every piece of e-waste is thoroughly collected or pressed. The dangerous materials which can poison the environment are separated from the valuable ones. “Globally, waste is not only increasing in quantity, but also in its complexity and composition,” says Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya, country representative for Rwanda at the Global Green Growth Institute, an intergovernmental organization for sustainable economic growth. “Within an electronic device, there’s gold, silver and so on and these sorts of elements could be taken out, providing new business opportunities for small businesses and even for big cities to generate income. Rwanda is one of our earliest pioneer members and they’ve done really well when it comes to its shift to a green growth pathway,” he adds. Mbera points to Enviroserve’s success in Rwanda as a potential beginning for an e-waste movement across Africa. “We’re talking with different governments in Africa to establish similar facilities in their countries,” he says. One thing is certain: it will take all nations to combat the growing e-waste crisis. 28．What can we know about e-waste recycling facility in Rwanda? A．It is the first plant to reuse e-waste in Africa. B．It is managed entirely by the government. C．It has already processed 10,000 tons of e-waste. D．It manages e-waste in an eco-friendly way. 29．What can be inferred according to Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya? A．Electronic devices are made of gold and silver. B．E-waste can contain potential treasure. C．Simple electronic devices are in great need. D．Rwanda is the only nation to recycle e-waste. 30．Which word can replace the underlined word “combat” in Paragraph 5? A．Admit. B．Handle. C．Discover. D．Face. 31．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．Rwanda is coping with the rising e-waste crisis. B．Lots of electronic devices are wasted in the world. C．A great deal of e-waste is poisoning the environment. D．E-waste is increasing in complexity and composition. D Everyone has their own way to “recharge” their sense of well-being — something that makes them feel good physically, emotionally, and spiritually even if they aren’t consciously aware of it. Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups. A hike through the woods is ideal when I can make it happen. But that’s me. It’s not simply that I enjoy these activities but also that they literally make me feel better and clear my mind. Mental health and physical health are closely connected. No kidding — what’s good for the body is often good for the mind. Knowing what you can do physically that has this effect for you will change your day and your life. Physical activity has many well-established mental health benefits. These are published in the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function (the ability to think, if you will), a reduced risk of anxiety and depression, and improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure-all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being. Learning how to routinely manage stress and getting screened for depression are simply good prevention practices. Awareness is especially critical at this time of year when disruptions to healthy habits and choices can be more likely and more annoying. Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of interrupting routines — as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the plentiful sunshine and clear skies of temperate months give way to unpredictable weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be upset from being as physically active. However, that tendency is precisely why it’s so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health — and how we can maintain both — during this time of year. 32．What’s the author’s best way to recharge his well-being? A．High-intensity exercise. B．Sitting at the desk. C．Staying nearby woods. D．Slight exercise. 33．What does the author imply in paragraph 3? A．Physical activity is closely connected with mental health. B．Increasing physical activity has no cure to brain health. C．Physical activity has a risk of anxiety and depression. D．Good quality of life leaves little time for physical activity. 34．What does the underlined word “disruptions” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Achievements. B．Improvements. C．Disturbances. D．Contributions. 35．Why does the author mention shorter days, colder temperatures and festivals? A．To remind us of the hard times of life. B．To let us mind physical and mental health. C．To tell what kind of life we all experience. D．To tell us many things are unpredictable. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下列短文，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。 Laughter is a universal language for humans to connect with each other and form social bonds. Even as babies, we giggle when our parents pull funny faces, and then gradually learn to make others laugh as we grow up. 36 Scientists have observed behaviors in animals that suggest that your pets might be secret jokesters. Have you ever seen dogs let people come close to their toy, and then playfully run away with it? Biologist Charles Darwin saw this as the dog’s version of a practical joke. Mare Bekoff, biology professor, also observed dogs playfully teasing each other by approaching slowly and then quickly running away. 37 And he’s also said that animals may goof around (瞎胡闹) as a way to cope with stress. In a 2024 study, Isabelle Laumer and colleagues watched four ape species interact with each other and observed 18 distinct teasing behaviors. They saw young apes move towards an adult quietly, pat them to surprise them and then wait and watch the response, behaviour similar to that shown by human children. 38 What about laughing? While playing, dogs sometimes produce a breathy snort (哼) that could sound like laughter. 39 Rats make a joyful squeak (吱吱声) similar to a giggle when they are tickled, says Jeffrey Burgdorf, professor at Northwestern University. 40 Are the apes in Laumer’s study really joking around or just attention-seeking? What would be the evolutionary purpose of animals teasing? “In humans, humour can serve as an ice-breaker, removing social barriers and strengthening relationships,” says Laumer. “We don’t know if it’s the same in apes or other animals, but it’s possible.” A．But is it a uniquely human experience? B．His study showed that rats intend to tease. C．Dolphins let out a squeak when they are hungry. D．Dolphins let out sounds of joy when play-fighting. E．His work concluded that dogs just want to have fun. F．But is a rat’s giggle really a sign of a sense of humour? G．So, a sense of humour may have appeared early in our evolutionary timeline. 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Kindness is the way forward in the world today.

The beds made by Potter are donated to adoption centers. It’s a 48 for a 93-year-old to do most of the basic stuff, yet Potter 49 her time each day to creating 30 beds in a month. “I cut up cloth for days until I have enough to stuff with,” she said.

It is home to thousands of animals, like bright blue and yellow macaws. River dolphins swim and play in the water, and there are many different coloured fish. In one town, a 13-year-old boy named Rhenan walks along the river every day. But looking at the river makes him worry because there is trash (垃圾) everywhere. He sees plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages. The water looks dark and ugly. At school, Rhenan asks about the dirty river. “You wouldn’t want trash in your house,” says his teacher. “Think about the poor animals!” For days, Rhenan couldn’t stop thinking about the river. It doesn’t seem right to him that this big and powerful river is filled with trash. “It’s hurting the animals in my area,” he thinks. “And it’s also hurting the families who live here.” Then Rhenan has an idea. The next morning, Rhenan talks to his mother about his plan for the river. He wants to go around his town and ask for everyone’s help. Maybe if they all work together, they could clean up the river! Rhenan’s mother loves his idea. “I believe the most important thing for you, Rhenan, is learning how to change things that you care about. That will stay with you forever.” she says. She tells him she will help him along the way. The next day, Rhenan goes to the police department. Next he goes to the Mayors office (市长办公室). He visits offices, businesses, and other schools. Soon he has a very big group of people who like his idea! They all decide to meet at the river the following week. On the day of the river clean-up. Rhenan is excited — but he is also nervous.

That creature is gone forever. Many people are worried about this happening to a large number of wild animals. They spend time campaigning to help preserve wildlife. One of the best-known preservationists is Caroline Smith. She is an attractive young woman who works for the National Grand Zoo. Caroline Smith’s vast knowledge of animals makes her a frequent guest on TV talk shows. She has been on the “Kyrie Belle Show” over forty times. She explains common errors in thinking about wildlife. For example, gorillas aren’t the violent, cruel and rude animals they appear to be. They are really quite shy. Monkeys that smile aren’t as happy as they seem. In fact, a monkey’s ear-to-ear smile means “watch out”. Snakes really help nature by eating harmful insects. So people should try to protect them. Caroline Smith hopes that once people understand animals better, they will do their best to preserve them. How lucky animals are to have a friend like Caroline Smith! 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A、B、C、D的四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Interested in making your next career move but don’t see the exact role you’re looking for?

Vaughan acknowledges the writing is out of imagination but it is concluded by research, expert opinion, and experiments happening right now. Isla lives in the United Kingdom— will it still be a united kingdom in 2050? -and her life looks pretty much like life does today: She has a house, a car and a job. There are forests, and giant machines taking carbon dioxide (二氧化碳) out of the atmosphere. It all sounds like a green and pleasant land, but it didn’t sound like the future to me. It’s just like the life we are living now. It’s an interesting exercise, imagining what it will be like in about 30 years. I thought I would give it a try: Here is my story about Edie, living in Toronto, Canada in 2050. Edie’s alarm goes off at 4:00 a. m. She gets up, folds up the bed in the garage that is her apartment and workshop. She considers herself to be very lucky to have this garage. The only people that live in houses these days are multi-millionaires from all over the world, especially from Arizona and other southern states, wishing to move to Canada with its cooler climate and plentiful water. They can afford the million-dollar immigrant visa fee. At that time, there are no office or industrial jobs anymore: Artificial Intelligence and robots will take care of that. The few jobs left are in service, culture or health care. Luckily, Edie has her job. She checks the balance in her Personal Carbon Allowance (PCA) account to see if she has enough to buy another battery for her e-bike. If she doesn’t have enough then she will have to buy carbon credits, and they. are expensive. She sets her alarm for 6:00 p. m. when the streets of Toronto will come alive again on this hot November day. 24．What can we know about Adam Vaughan’s passage? A．It is about creative imagination. B．It mainly describes advance in science. C．It focuses on solutions to carbon emissions. D．It is his vision of the future. 25．What does the author think of Isla’s life? A．Frightening. B．Ordinary. C．Ideal. D．Pleasant. 26．Why do people like Canada according to Edie? A．People want to get better education. B．The living expense there is rather low. C．It has a cool and comfortable temperature. D．The water in Canada hasn’t been polluted. 27．What does the author intend to tell us? A．Two women’s entirely different lives. B．What our life will be like in 2050. C．A look into Adam Vaughan’s Life. D．How we can handle our account well. 【答案】24．D 25．B 26．C 27．B 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一名杂志记者写得关于未来“碳中和”世界的生活的文章。 24．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Here, he imagines what a typical day would be like in the future-through the eyes of Isla, “a child in 2050”-after we’ve cut carbon emissions(在这里，他通过“2050年的孩子”艾拉的视角，想象了在我们减少碳排放之后，未来典型的一天会是什么样子)”可知，在亚当·沃恩发表的文章中他想象了未来“碳中和”的世界的生活是什么样子的，因此文章是他对未来的想象。故选D项。 25．推理判断题。根据文章第二段“It all sounds like a green and pleasant land, but it didn’t sound like the future to me. It’s just like the life we are living now.(这一切听起来像是一片绿色和宜人的土地，但对我来说，这并不像未来。就像我们现在的生活一样。)”可知，作者认为艾拉的生活就像我们现在的生活一样是普通的、平常的。故选B项。 26．细节理解题。根据文章第四段“The only people that live in houses these days are multi-millionaires from all over the world, especially from Arizona and other southern states, wishing to move to Canada with its cooler climate and plentiful water.(现在住在房子里的人都是来自世界各地的百万富翁，尤其是来自亚利桑那州和其他南部各州的人，他们希望搬到气候凉爽、水资源丰富的加拿大。)”可知，人们喜欢加拿大是因为它的温度凉爽舒适。故选C项。 27．推理判断题。分析全文内容可知，文章主要介绍了一名杂志记者写得关于未来“碳中和”世界的生活的文章，再根据文章第一段“Here, he imagines what a typical day would be like in the future-through the eyes of Isla, “a child in 2050”-after we’ve cut carbon emissions(在这里，他通过“2050年的孩子”艾拉的视角，想象了在我们减少碳排放之后，未来典型的一天会是什么样子)”可知，所以作者想告诉我们的是2050年我们的生活会是什么样子。故选B项。 C According to the UN report, nearly 54 million tons of e-waste was generated around the world in 2019 and will reach 74.7 million tons by 2030. It includes everything from phones and computer monitors to larger items like refrigerators and old fax machine. Rwanda is one of only 13 countries in Africa that have passed a national law regarding e-waste rule.· It has led to the first official recycling: and reusing facility in the country. Operational since early last year, this public-private partnership between the government and Enviroserve became a source of pride for Rwanda. The plant can process up to 10,000 tons of e-waste per year. According to managing director Olivier Mbera, Enviroserve has already repaired and reused more than 5,000 computers, which were sold to public schools. To date, it has processed more than 4,000 tons of e-waste and created more than 600 jobs. Conveyor belts (传送带) sort plastics from metals, while particular space collects phosphor (磷) from old tube TVs. Circuit boards (电路板) pile up in bags and batteries are constantly being tested. Every piece of e-waste is thoroughly collected or pressed. The dangerous materials which can poison the environment are separated from the valuable ones. “Globally, waste is not only increasing in quantity, but also in its complexity and composition,” says Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya, country representative for Rwanda at the Global Green Growth Institute, an intergovernmental organization for sustainable economic growth. “Within an electronic device, there’s gold, silver and so on and these sorts of elements could be taken out, providing new business opportunities for small businesses and even for big cities to generate income. Rwanda is one of our earliest pioneer members and they’ve done really well when it comes to its shift to a green growth pathway,” he adds. Mbera points to Enviroserve’s success in Rwanda as a potential beginning for an e-waste movement across Africa. “We’re talking with different governments in Africa to establish similar facilities in their countries,” he says. One thing is certain: it will take all nations to combat the growing e-waste crisis. 28．What can we know about e-waste recycling facility in Rwanda? A．It is the first plant to reuse e-waste in Africa. B．It is managed entirely by the government. C．It has already processed 10,000 tons of e-waste. D．It manages e-waste in an eco-friendly way. 29．What can be inferred according to Okechukwu Daniel Ogbonnaya? A．Electronic devices are made of gold and silver. B．E-waste can contain potential treasure. C．Simple electronic devices are in great need. D．Rwanda is the only nation to recycle e-waste. 30．Which word can replace the underlined word “combat” in Paragraph 5? A．Admit. B．Handle. C．Discover. D．Face. 31．What does the passage mainly talk about? A．Rwanda is coping with the rising e-waste crisis. B．Lots of electronic devices are wasted in the world. C．A great deal of e-waste is poisoning the environment. D．E-waste is increasing in complexity and composition. 【答案】28．D 29．B 30．B 31．A 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了卢旺达正在应对日益严重的电子垃圾危机。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段前两句“Rwanda is one of only 13 countries in Africa that have passed a national law regarding e-waste rule.· It has led to the first official recycling: and reusing facility in the country.(卢旺达是非洲仅有的13个国家之一，通过了有关电子垃圾规则的国家法律。这导致了该国出现了第一个官方的回收和再利用设施)”可知，卢旺达的电子垃圾回收设施，是以环保的方式管理电子垃圾的。故选D。 29．推理判断题。根据第四段第二句“Within an electronic device, there’s gold, silver and so on and these sorts of elements could be taken out, providing new business opportunities for small businesses and even for big cities to generate income.(在一个电子设备中，有金，银等等，这些元素可以被提取出来，为小企业，甚至为大城市创造收入提供了新的商业机会)”可以推断出，电子垃圾里含有一些可提取的元素，可以成为新的商业机会，是潜在的财富。故选B。 30．词义猜测题。根据最后一段第二句“We’re talking with different governments in Africa to establish similar facilities in their countries(我们正在与非洲的不同政府协商在他们的国家建立类似的设施)”可知，类似的设施就是处理电子垃圾的设施。故猜测下句意为“有一件事是肯定的：所有国家都要处理日益严重的电子垃圾危机。”所以 combat 就是处理的意思。故选B。 31．主旨大意题。通读全文，并根据最后一段第一句“Mbera points to Enviroserve’s success in Rwanda as a potential beginning for an e-waste movement across Africa.(Mbera指出，Enviroserve在卢旺达的成功是整个非洲电子垃圾运动的潜在开端)”可知，卢旺达正在应对日益严重的电子垃圾危机。故选A。 D Everyone has their own way to “recharge” their sense of well-being — something that makes them feel good physically, emotionally, and spiritually even if they aren’t consciously aware of it. Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups. A hike through the woods is ideal when I can make it happen. But that’s me. It’s not simply that I enjoy these activities but also that they literally make me feel better and clear my mind. Mental health and physical health are closely connected. No kidding — what’s good for the body is often good for the mind. Knowing what you can do physically that has this effect for you will change your day and your life. Physical activity has many well-established mental health benefits. These are published in the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function (the ability to think, if you will), a reduced risk of anxiety and depression, and improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure-all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being. Learning how to routinely manage stress and getting screened for depression are simply good prevention practices. Awareness is especially critical at this time of year when disruptions to healthy habits and choices can be more likely and more annoying. Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of interrupting routines — as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the plentiful sunshine and clear skies of temperate months give way to unpredictable weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be upset from being as physically active. However, that tendency is precisely why it’s so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health — and how we can maintain both — during this time of year. 32．What’s the author’s best way to recharge his well-being? A．High-intensity exercise. B．Sitting at the desk. C．Staying nearby woods. D．Slight exercise. 33．What does the author imply in paragraph 3? A．Physical activity is closely connected with mental health. B．Increasing physical activity has no cure to brain health. C．Physical activity has a risk of anxiety and depression. D．Good quality of life leaves little time for physical activity. 34．What does the underlined word “disruptions” in paragraph 4 mean? A．Achievements. B．Improvements. C．Disturbances. D．Contributions. 35．Why does the author mention shorter days, colder temperatures and festivals? A．To remind us of the hard times of life. B．To let us mind physical and mental health. C．To tell what kind of life we all experience. D．To tell us many things are unpredictable. 【答案】32．D 33．A 34．C 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了体育活动对身心健康的作用。 32．细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Everyone has their own way to “recharge” their sense of well-being — something that makes them feel good physically, emotionally, and spiritually even if they aren’t consciously aware of it. Personally, I know that few things can improve my day as quickly as a walk around the block or even just getting up from my desk and doing some push-ups. (每个人都有自己的方式来“充电”他们的幸福感——一些让他们在身体上、情感上和精神上感觉良好的事情，即使他们并没有意识到这一点。对我来说，没有什么事情能像绕街区走一圈或甚至只是从桌前站起来做几个俯卧撑那样迅速改善我的一天)”可知，作者通常的“充电”方式是做一些轻微的运动。故选D项。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段的内容“Physical activity has many well-established mental health benefits. These are published in the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans and include improved brain health and cognitive function (the ability to think, if you will), a reduced risk of anxiety and depression, and improved sleep and overall quality of life. Although not a cure-all, increasing physical activity directly contributes to improved mental health and better overall health and well-being.(体育活动对心理健康有很多好处。这些建议发表在《美国人体育活动指南》杂志上，包括改善大脑健康和认知功能——思考能力，如果你愿意的话，减少紧张和担忧的风险，改善睡眠和整体生活质量。虽然不能包治百病，但增加体育活动直接有助于改善心理健康和更好的整体健康和福祉)”可知，身体活动与心理健康密切相关。故选A项。 34．词句猜测题。根据划线单词后面的“to healthy habits and choices can be more likely and more annoying.(对健康的习惯和选择的……更可能也更令人讨厌。)”可知，能够让人讨厌、恼火的肯定是对健康习惯的破坏。所以，划线单词disruption的意义为“破坏、妨碍”，与destruction意义一致。故选C项。 35．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Shorter days and colder temperatures have a way of interrupting routines - as do the holidays, with both their joys and their stresses. When the plentiful sunshine and clear skies of temperate months give way to unpredictable weather, less daylight, and festive gatherings, it may happen unconsciously or seem natural to be upset from being as physically active. However, that tendency is precisely why it's so important that we are ever more mindful of our physical and emotional health — and how we can maintain both - during this time of year.(白天变短、气温变冷会破坏正常的生活——就像假期一样，既有欢乐，也有压力。当温和月份的充足阳光和晴朗天空被恶劣天气、日照减少和节日聚会所取代时，人们可能会无意识地减少体力活动，或者看起来很自然。然而，这种趋势正是为什么我们越来越注意自己的身心健康以及如何在一年中的这个时候保持身心健康如此重要的原因。)”可知，白天变短、气温变冷和假期会破坏正常的生活，人们可能会无意识地减少体力活动，越是这个时候，我们越应该注意自己的身心健康。所以作者提到白天变短、气温变冷和节日是为了提醒我们在任何时候都要关注健康。故选B项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下列短文，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。 Laughter is a universal language for humans to connect with each other and form social bonds. Even as babies, we giggle when our parents pull funny faces, and then gradually learn to make others laugh as we grow up. 36 Scientists have observed behaviors in animals that suggest that your pets might be secret jokesters. Have you ever seen dogs let people come close to their toy, and then playfully run away with it? Biologist Charles Darwin saw this as the dog’s version of a practical joke. Mare Bekoff, biology professor, also observed dogs playfully teasing each other by approaching slowly and then quickly running away. 37 And he’s also said that animals may goof around (瞎胡闹) as a way to cope with stress. In a 2024 study, Isabelle Laumer and colleagues watched four ape species interact with each other and observed 18 distinct teasing behaviors. They saw young apes move towards an adult quietly, pat them to surprise them and then wait and watch the response, behaviour similar to that shown by human children. 38 What about laughing? While playing, dogs sometimes produce a breathy snort (哼) that could sound like laughter. 39 Rats make a joyful squeak (吱吱声) similar to a giggle when they are tickled, says Jeffrey Burgdorf, professor at Northwestern University. 40 Are the apes in Laumer’s study really joking around or just attention-seeking? What would be the evolutionary purpose of animals teasing? “In humans, humour can serve as an ice-breaker, removing social barriers and strengthening relationships,” says Laumer. “We don’t know if it’s the same in apes or other animals, but it’s possible.” A．But is it a uniquely human experience? B．His study showed that rats intend to tease. C．Dolphins let out a squeak when they are hungry. D．Dolphins let out sounds of joy when play-fighting. E．His work concluded that dogs just want to have fun. F．But is a rat’s giggle really a sign of a sense of humour? G．So, a sense of humour may have appeared early in our evolutionary timeline. 【答案】36．A 37．E 38．G 39．D 40．F 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了动物界中可能存在幽默感的现象，科学家观察到狗、猿类和老鼠等动物展现出类似人类幽默行为的例子，如戏弄、玩笑和笑声，提示幽默感或许在进化早期就已出现。 36．上文“Laughter is a universal language for humans to connect with each other and form social bonds. Even as babies, we giggle when our parents pull funny faces, and then gradually learn to make others laugh as we grow up.(笑是人类相互联系和形成社会纽带的通用语言。即使在婴儿时期，当父母做出滑稽的表情时，我们也会咯咯地笑，然后随着我们的成长，我们逐渐学会让别人发笑)”说明人类会笑和让别人发笑，A项“但这是一种独特的人类体验吗？”承接上文，并引出下文“Scientists have observed behaviors in animals that suggest that your pets might be secret jokesters.(科学家观察到动物的行为表明，你的宠物可能是秘密的爱开玩笑的动物)”，说明动物也可能会笑。故选A。 37．上文“Mare Bekoff, biology professor, also observed dogs playfully teasing each other by approaching slowly and then quickly running away.(生物学教授Mare Bekoff也观察到，狗会慢慢靠近，然后迅速跑开，开玩笑地互相逗弄)”说明生物学教授研究狗的行为，E项“他的研究得出结论，狗只是想玩得开心。”说明这位教授的研究结果，承接上文，符合题意。故选E。 38．上文“They saw young apes move towards an adult quietly, pat them to surprise them and then wait and watch the response, behaviour similar to that shown by human children.(他们看到幼猿悄悄地走向一只成年猿，拍拍它们让它们大吃一惊，然后等待并观察它们的反应，这种行为类似于人类儿童的表现)”说明猿的幼崽会做出类似人类儿童的表现，G项“因此，幽默感可能出现在我们进化的早期。”承接上文，作为上文介绍的结果，说明幽默感可能出现在进化的早期。故选G。 39．上文“While playing, dogs sometimes produce a breathy snort (哼) that could sound like laughter.(在玩耍时，狗有时会发出一种听起来像笑声的喘息声)”以及下文“Rats make a joyful squeak (吱吱声) similar to a giggle when they are tickled, says Jeffrey Burgdorf, professor at Northwestern University.(西北大学教授Jeffrey Burgdorf说，老鼠被挠痒时会发出类似咯咯笑声的快乐吱吱声)”说明动物会在快乐时发出像笑声的声音，D项“海豚在打闹时发出欢乐的声音。”以海豚为例，说明动物在快乐时会发出声音，与上下文并列，符合题意。故选D。 40．上文“Rats make a joyful squeak (吱吱声) similar to a giggle when they are tickled, says Jeffrey Burgdorf, professor at Northwestern University.(西北大学教授Jeffrey Burgdorf说，老鼠被挠痒时会发出类似咯咯笑声的快乐吱吱声)”说明老鼠被挠痒时会发出类似咯咯笑的声音，F项中a rat’s giggle是关键词，F项“但是老鼠的咯咯笑声真的是幽默感的表现吗？”承接上文，并提出问题，引出下文的问题“Are the apes in Laumer’s study really joking around or just attention-seeking?(Laumer研究中的猿类真的是在开玩笑还是只是在寻求关注？)”，质疑动物发出的声音是否是真地开心。故选F。 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Kindness is the way forward in the world today.

It’s a 48 for a 93-year-old to do most of the basic stuff, yet Potter 49 her time each day to creating 30 beds in a month. “I cut up cloth for days until I have enough to stuff with,” she said. This is a double dose of kindness from Potter’s 50 . Not only does Potter help animals, but she also cares for the 51 by reusing the scrap fabric (碎布). Even at 93, nothing 52 Potter from spreading kindness each day. She looks beyond to understand the 53 of these animals who can’t speak for themselves.

One prevalent non-environmentally friendly phenomenon on our campus is the excessive use of disposable plastic water bottles. Every day, numerous plastic bottles are discarded, contributing to plastic pollution and harming our environment. To tackle this issue, we can implement several solutions. Firstly, installing water refill stations across campus can encourage students to use reusable water bottles, reducing the reliance on single-use plastics. Secondly, organizing awareness campaigns and educational workshops can educate students about the detrimental effects of plastic pollution and promote sustainable alternatives. By adopting these measures, we can significantly reduce our environmental footprint and progress towards a greener campus environment.

It is home to thousands of animals, like bright blue and yellow macaws. River dolphins swim and play in the water, and there are many different coloured fish. In one town, a 13-year-old boy named Rhenan walks along the river every day. But looking at the river makes him worry because there is trash (垃圾) everywhere. He sees plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages. The water looks dark and ugly. At school, Rhenan asks about the dirty river. “You wouldn’t want trash in your house,” says his teacher. “Think about the poor animals!” For days, Rhenan couldn’t stop thinking about the river. It doesn’t seem right to him that this big and powerful river is filled with trash. “It’s hurting the animals in my area,” he thinks. “And it’s also hurting the families who live here.” Then Rhenan has an idea. The next morning, Rhenan talks to his mother about his plan for the river. He wants to go around his town and ask for everyone’s help. Maybe if they all work together, they could clean up the river! Rhenan’s mother loves his idea. “I believe the most important thing for you, Rhenan, is learning how to change things that you care about. That will stay with you forever.” she says. She tells him she will help him along the way. The next day, Rhenan goes to the police department. Next he goes to the Mayors office (市长办公室). He visits offices, businesses, and other schools. Soon he has a very big group of people who like his idea! They all decide to meet at the river the following week. On the day of the river clean-up. Rhenan is excited — but he is also nervous. What if no one shows up? But when he and his mother arrive, there are almost a hundred people there, including many of Rhenan’s friends. 注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Over the whole day, they all work together to clean up the trash. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ At the end of the day, everyone starts to cheer. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Over the whole day, they all work together to clean up the trash. Rhenan and the volunteers tirelessly pick up plastic bottles, old clothing, and empty food packages from the river and its banks. They form teams to cover different sections, ensuring no area is left untouched. As they work, laughter and chatter fill the air, creating a sense of community and shared purpose. By the afternoon, they have collected heaps of trash, transforming the riverbank into a cleaner, more beautiful place. At the end of the day, everyone starts to cheer. They are proud of their hard work and the visible change they have made. The river now flows clearer, reflecting the bright sky above. Rhenan feels a deep sense of accomplishment and gratitude towards everyone who has helped. To prevent future pollution, they discuss plans to educate the community about the importance of keeping the river clean and propose regular clean-up events. Rhenan realizes that together, they can make a lasting impact. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，巴西的阿拉瓜亚河是许多动物的家园。但是13岁的Rhenan很担忧，因为河里到处都是塑料瓶、旧衣服和空食品包装袋之类的垃圾。在学校，考虑到垃圾对动物和当地家庭的危害，Rhenan有了清理河流的想法。他把这个想法告诉了母亲，母亲很喜欢这个想法并支持他。随后，Rhenan走访了警察局、市长办公室、各类办公室、企业和其他学校。一大群人支持他的想法。到了清理河流的时候，Rhenan很担心没人来。但包括他许多朋友在内的近百人前来帮忙。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一整天，他们都一起清理垃圾。”可知，第一段可描写Rhenan和志愿者从河边捡起塑料瓶，旧衣服和空包装，他们组成团队，确保没有遗漏，空气中弥漫着笑声，到下午他们已经收集了很多垃圾，河岸变成了干净美丽的地方。 ②由第二段首句内容“在一天结束时，每个人都开始欢呼。”可知，第二段可描写他们为自己的努力感到自豪，河水清澈了，Rhenan对每个帮助的人充满感激，为了防止以后的污染，他们制定了计划，定期举办清理活动，Rhenan意识到他们可以一起产生持久的影响。 2.续写线索：清理垃圾——组成团队——清理干净——感到自豪——河流清澈——讨论计划 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①捡：pick up /collect /gather /retrieve ②覆盖：cover /span / extend over ③讨论：discuss /talk over 情绪类 ①自豪的：be proud of/take pride in ②感激的：gratitude/thankfulness/appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1] They form teams to cover different sections, ensuring no area is left untouched.
