This happened to me with the classic shape-falling game Tetris (俄罗斯方块), created in 1985 by Alexey Pajitnov. Feeling stressed one evening, I turned on my Switch to find a game to play and relax with. That’s when I discovered Tetris. Before I knew it, I was obsessed. Even when I stopped, my brain was still playing, with the blocks falling in my mind. I started looking at objects in the real world and thinking about how they could be moved and stacked together. I even dreamed about Tetris. I was experiencing the common “Tetris effect”. Introduced by journalist Jeffrey Goldsmith in his 1994 Wired magazine article called This Is Your Brain on Tetris, the effect has been observed by psychologists and researchers. The lasting images of Tetris are due to the “Zeigarnik effect”, in which people have better memories of uncompleted tasks than those of completed ones. Tetris, being a game that technically never ends, keeps you thinking of the game’s unfinished task, reported Tech Times. And the catchy music stays with you, too. There are also positives to the Tetris Effect. In his 1991 study, psychologist Richard Haier at the University of California found that continuously playing Tetris resulted in the thickness of the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层) increasing, which improves brain efficiency (效率), reported psychology website Practical Pie. Haier’s discovery got Tetris put into the Guinness World Records Video Gamer’s Edition 2008, as the “first video game to be proven to improve brain functioning and efficiency”. So, the next time you want to play a computer game, why not try the classic Tetris and see if it improves your brain function? But be warned, you’ll likely be seeing falling blocks everywhere. 24. What does the underlined word “obsessed” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. quite shocked. B. extremely interested. C. highly satisfied. D. very curious. 25. What can we learn about the “Tetris Effect” from the text? A. It is connected to the way our memory works. B. It is an uncommon occurrence among children. C. It can cause the “Zeigarnik effect”. D It is primarily related to the game’s music. 26. What benefit can people get from continuously playing Tetris, according to Haier? A. Improved memory. B. Lifted mood. C. Better brain function. D. Fewer painful experiences. 27. What is the author’s tone in the last paragraph? A. Serious. B. Amusing. C. Worried. D. Doubtful. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者介绍了一款让自己入迷的游戏——俄罗斯方块，描述了这款游戏的一些特点应用以及科学家发现俄罗斯方块对人类大脑有独特的影响，并提议读者可以去体验一下俄罗斯方块。 【24题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段划线句子“Before I knew it, I was obsessed. Even when I stopped, my brain was still playing, with the blocks falling in my mind. I started looking at objects in the real world and thinking about how they could be moved and stacked together. I even dreamed about Tetris. (在我意识到之前，我已经 。即使我停止了，我的大脑仍在玩，这些方块在我脑海中落下。我开始观察现实世界中的物体并思考如何将它们移动并堆放在一起。我甚至梦到了俄罗斯方块)”可知，此处描述作者对俄罗斯方块着迷了。所以猜测obsessed的意思是“入迷的，着迷的”。故选B项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“The lasting images of Tetris are due to the ‘Zeigarnik effect’, in which people have better memories of uncompleted tasks than those of completed ones. (俄罗斯方块的持久图像是由于‘蔡格尼克记忆效应’，这个效应指出人们对未完成任务的记忆比对已完成任务的记忆要好)”可知，俄罗斯方块效应与我们在记忆方面的功能有关。故选A项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段第二句“In his 1991 study, psychologist Richard Haier at the University of California found that continuously playing Tetris resulted in the thickness of the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层) increasing, which improves brain efficiency (效率), reported psychology website Practical Pie.(心理学网站Practical Pie报道，加利福尼亚大学的心理学家 Richard Haier在他的1991年的研究中发现，不断地玩俄罗斯方块会导致大脑皮层厚度增加，改善大脑效率)”可知，研究表明，持续玩俄罗斯方块可以让大脑运转更高效。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But be warned, you’ll likely be seeing falling blocks everywhere.(但是他警告说，你可能会看到到处都是掉下来的方块)”可知，作者语气是比较轻松有趣、诙谐幽默的。故选B项。 C Many of us think, wrongly, that the moon doesn’t change. For example, the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu once wrote that “Generations have come and passed away; From year to year the moons look alike, old and new.” However, a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that the moon is in fact slowly reduced in size over time. For the study, a group of US scientists examined and analyzed thousands of photographs taken by the NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (月球勘测轨道飞行器照相机). They found that there were lots of faults (断层) on the surface of the moon. These faults were formed by recent movement on the moon. According to NASA, the moon is made up of pieces of rocks with a hot core. The moon continued to expand as it was born. But in this process, it released energy and cooled down. Then it began to shrink, in a way comparable to the shrinking of a grape into a raisin. Over the past several hundred million years, it has become 46 meters “skinnier”. But due to its hard and rocky layer, the moon’s surface continues to push up. “Some of these quakes can be fairly strong, around five on the Richter scale (里氏震级),” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in the US. But does that mean the moon is a dangerous place that human shouldn’t try to explore and live on in the future? Maybe not, reported The Telegraph. “This isn’t anything to worry about. The moon may become smaller, but not by much. It’s not going anywhere,” Watters comforted us. The new discovery proves that the idea that the moon is a dead, boring place is wrong. “We have been to the moon and we’ve done some great science, but there is still a lot we don’t know.

However, you might notice that the same ideas or views frequently reappear on certain social media platforms. If this happens, be cautious. You may be in what’s called an information cocoon (信息茧房) — a space where only similar opinions spread. This phenomenon, which has existed since the early eras of human culture, has been significantly enlarged by the widespread use of social media. Imagine ancient people gathered around a bonfire, sharing only stories and experiences that reinforced their collective worldview. Today, the internet serves as the modern “bonfire”, with social media platforms connecting people globally and enabling the sharing of thoughts and beliefs. You might have noticed that social media advertising seems to “magically” understand your interests, presenting ads that are surprisingly related. This is the result of complex algorithms (算法) — sets of instructions designed to perform tasks or solve problems. Every time we click, like, or share something, we leave a digital footprint that helps algorithms better understand our interests, values and beliefs. Algorithms then use this information to provide content that meets our interests. Although information cocoons can provide a sense of belonging, they also bring some negative effects. Engaging with others only within limited information space results in one-sided individual’s viewpoint, making it hard for them to accept different views and discuss complex issues. Information cocoons can also contribute to increasing division and anxiety, which further divides societies. They make it unclear between facts and opinions. This weakness leaves us open to misinformation, influencing both personal decisions and social energy. Fortunately, there are many ways to break out of the information cocoon. Actively seeking diverse information sources is very important for overcoming these limitations. This can involve diversifying (使多样化) our social media content, reading articles from various views, and joining meaningful discussions with people from different backgrounds. Besides, training critical thinking skills is essential. We should check facts and remain open to changing our beliefs. 32. The information cocoon is increasingly becoming large because ________. A. A great deal of information is provided. B. A growing number of people turn to social media. C. Various similar opinions spread in the information cocoon. D. Stories and experiences are usually shared in people’s gatherings 33. Why does the author mention “algorithms” in Paragraph 3? A. To analyze how social media impacts our preferences. B. To indicate how algorithms perform tasks or problems. C. To explain why we always read satisfying content on social media platforms. D. To show why algorithms are important in affecting our decisions and beliefs. 34. Which of the following is the negative effect of information cocoons? A. A person sticking to his own opinion. B. A society filled with energy. C. A person willing to join in discussions. D. A society full of various views. 35. What does the author advise us to do to get away from the information cocoon? A. Voice our own views openly. B. Develop critical thinking ability. C. Communicate with like-minded people. D. Search specific information sources. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要科普信息茧房以及对我们的影响，最后作者介绍了打破信息茧的方法。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段“This phenomenon, which has existed since the early eras of human culture, has been significantly enlarged by the widespread use of social media.(这种自人类文化早期就存在的现象，随着社交媒体的广泛使用而显著扩大。)”可知，信息茧房越来越大，是因为越来越多的人转向社交媒体。故选B项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段“You might have noticed that social media advertising seems to ‘magically’ understand your interests, presenting ads that are surprisingly related. This is the result of complex algorithms (算法) — sets of instructions designed to perform tasks or solve problems. Every time we click, like, or share something, we leave a digital footprint that helps algorithms better understand our interests, values and beliefs. Algorithms then use this information to provide content that meets our interests.(你可能已经注意到，社交媒体广告似乎‘神奇地’理解了你的兴趣，呈现了令人惊讶的相关广告。这是复杂算法的结果——一组旨在执行任务或解决问题的指令。每次我们点击、点赞或分享一些东西时，我们都会留下一个数字足迹，帮助算法更好地理解我们的兴趣、价值观和信仰。然后，算法使用这些信息来提供符合我们兴趣的内容。)”可知，作者在第3段中提到了“算法”来解释为什么我们总是在社交媒体平台上阅读令人满意的内容。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第四段“Engaging with others only within limited information space results in one-sided individual’s viewpoint, making it hard for them to accept different views and discuss complex issues. (仅在有限的信息空间内与他人交往会导致个人观点片面，使他们难以接受不同的观点并讨论复杂的问题。)”可知，信息茧房的负面影响之一是一个人会固执地坚持自己的观点。故选A项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。由文章最后一段“Besides, training critical thinking skills is essential. We should check facts and remain open to changing our beliefs.(此外，培养批判性思维能力至关重要。我们应该核实事实，并对改变我们的信仰持开放态度。)” 可知，作者建议我们培养批判性思维能力来摆脱信息茧。故选B项。 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面材料，从材料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。 The black box is used to record all the activities of a plane during its flight.

Everything ________ (take) into consideration, they believed themselves more and returned to their positions. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】taken 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意为: 考虑到一切因素，他们更加相信自己并回到了他们的位置。句中已有谓语动词believed和returned，空处应用非谓语动词，根据空前Everything可知，空处与其构成独立主格结构，Everything与动词take之间构成被动关系，因此使用过去分词形式taken。故填taken。 75. Can I use your computer? Mine ________(repair) at present. (所给词适当形式填空) 【答案】is being repaired 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态语态。句意：我可以用一下你的电脑吗？我的现在正在修理。分析句意并根据时间状语at present，句子描述现在正在发生的事情用现在进行时，Mine指代“我的电脑”，与谓语动词repair构成逻辑上的被动关系，用现在进行时的被动语态。主语为单数，谓语单数形式。故填is being repaired。 第四节 完成句子（共10小题，每小题1.5分，满分15分） 76. 在英国，课堂讨论很重要，可是我无法做出贡献，因为有时候我没办法用英文清楚地表达自己的观点。 Class discussion is very important in the UK, but I could not ______ ______ ______ because sometimes I wasn’t able to express myself clearly in English. 【答案】 ①. make ②. a ③. contribution 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语。分析句子结构，空白处在句中作谓语动词的一部分，根据汉语提示，“做出贡献”在英语中可以表达为“make a contribution”。由于前面有情态动词could not，所以此处直接使用动词原形make。因此，正确填入的短语是make a contribution。故填make；a；contribution。 77. 考虑周全后，你要心平气和地向他们解释你的行为和感受，仔细地倾听，打消他们的顾虑。 After you have thought it through, explain your actions and feelings calmly, listen carefully, and ________ __________ ________. 【答案】 ①. address ②. their ③. concerns 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语和祈使句。根据汉语提示，“打消某人的疑虑”可用表达为address one's concerns，分析句子结构，空处address与并列连词and前的explain和listen并列，所以用动词原形，即address their concerns，主句构成祈使句。故填address；their；concerns。 78. 但这段友谊值得挽回：八年时间可不短！ But this friendship is _______ _______: eight years is a long time! 【答案】 ①. worth ②. saving 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语。根据句意和汉语提示可知，表示“值得做……”应用固定短语be worth doing；表示“挽回”用动词save，在该短语中，用动名词的主动形式表示被动意义。故填worth saving。 79. 最后，应该指出，与一群人在一起和与朋友在一起，不是一回事。 Finally, it should be pointed out that _______ _______ _______ of a crowd is not the same as being with friends. 【答案】 ①. enjoying ②. the ③. company 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。此处“与一群人在一起”理解为“享受一群人的陪伴”应用enjoy the company of a crowd，作主语，应用动名词形式。故填①enjoying；② the；③company。 80. 主治医生说，珍妮弗一两天就能康复。 Her doctors says that she will _________ ________ _________ _________ in a day or two. 【答案】 ①. make ②. a ③. full ④. recovery 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语。根据空格前的助动词will可知，空格处应填动词原形，一起构成一般将来时，根据句意“康复”是短语make a full recovery。故空格1填make；空格2填a；空格3填full；空格4填recovery。 81. 健康专家对这些数字表示担忧。 Health experts _______ _______ _______these figures. 【答案】 ①. are ②. concerned ③. about 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语。表示“对……担忧”短语为be concerned about，陈述事实用一般现在时，主语为experts，谓语用复数。故填are concerned about。 82. 另外一方面我重点强调的是视觉特效。 Another aspect I_______ _______ _______ _______ is visual special effect. 【答案】 ①. attach ②. great ③. importance ④. to 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语和时态。结合句意，分析句子可知，Another aspect是主句主语，I和空处是定语从句，修饰先行词Another aspect，从句中缺少“认为非常重要”，是谓语部分，可用短语attach great importance to，其中形容词great作定语，结合主句系动词is可知，从句也应使用一般现在时时态，所以谓语动词attach用复数形式。故填①attach②great③importance ④to。 83. 正如真正的“泰坦尼克号”上那些可怜的乘客们所看到的冰山一角一样。 Just as the poor passengers on the real Titanic saw _______ _______ _______ _______ _______. 【答案】 ①. the ②. tip ③. of ④. the ⑤. iceberg 【解析】 【详解】考查固定短语。表示“冰山一角”短语为the tip of the iceberg，故填①the；② tip；③of；④the；⑤iceberg。 84. 在甘太太帮阿甘为第一天上学做准备时，校车停了下来。 The bus _______ _______ as Mrs Gump prepares Forrest for his first day of school. 【答案】 ①. pulls ②. up 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语。根据汉语可知，空处表示“（车）停了下来”，可用动词短语pull up，结合prepares可知，时态用一般现在时，且主语The bus为单数，谓语动词应用第三人称单数形式。故填pulls up。 85. 这部电影看上去像一部颇为典型的历史剧，没有复杂的特效，而几位主演的出色演技令这部电影十分精彩。 The film looks like a fairly typical historical film without _______ _______ _______, and it is made enjoyable by the performances of the main actors. 【答案】 ①. fancy ②. special ③. effects 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词和名词。表示“异常复杂的”可用形容词fancy，作定语；表示“特殊的”可用形容词special；表示“效果”可用名词effect，为可数名词，前面没有数量词，可数名词需用复数形式，因此，“特效”可用名词短语special effects，作介词without的宾语。故填①fancy；②special；③styles。 第四部分 应用文写作（满分15分） 86. 假设你是红星中学高一学生李华。你的英国朋友Jim在给你的邮件中提到他想强身健体，计划选择一项可以长期坚持的运动并向你征询建议。请你给他回复邮件，内容包括： 1.推荐的运动； 2.推荐的理由。 注意：1.词数不少于50； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, I am glad to learn that you would like to exercise to keep fit.

B Have you ever played a computer game for a long time and then kept seeing the game’s images afterward? This happened to me with the classic shape-falling game Tetris (俄罗斯方块), created in 1985 by Alexey Pajitnov. Feeling stressed one evening, I turned on my Switch to find a game to play and relax with. That’s when I discovered Tetris. Before I knew it, I was obsessed. Even when I stopped, my brain was still playing, with the blocks falling in my mind. I started looking at objects in the real world and thinking about how they could be moved and stacked together. I even dreamed about Tetris. I was experiencing the common “Tetris effect”. Introduced by journalist Jeffrey Goldsmith in his 1994 Wired magazine article called This Is Your Brain on Tetris, the effect has been observed by psychologists and researchers. The lasting images of Tetris are due to the “Zeigarnik effect”, in which people have better memories of uncompleted tasks than those of completed ones. Tetris, being a game that technically never ends, keeps you thinking of the game’s unfinished task, reported Tech Times. And the catchy music stays with you, too. There are also positives to the Tetris Effect. In his 1991 study, psychologist Richard Haier at the University of California found that continuously playing Tetris resulted in the thickness of the cerebral cortex (大脑皮层) increasing, which improves brain efficiency (效率), reported psychology website Practical Pie. Haier’s discovery got Tetris put into the Guinness World Records Video Gamer’s Edition 2008, as the “first video game to be proven to improve brain functioning and efficiency”. So, the next time you want to play a computer game, why not try the classic Tetris and see if it improves your brain function? But be warned, you’ll likely be seeing falling blocks everywhere. 24. What does the underlined word “obsessed” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. quite shocked. B. extremely interested. C. highly satisfied. D. very curious. 25. What can we learn about the “Tetris Effect” from the text? A. It is connected to the way our memory works. B. It is an uncommon occurrence among children. C. It can cause the “Zeigarnik effect”. D. It is primarily related to the game’s music. 26. What benefit can people get from continuously playing Tetris, according to Haier? A. Improved memory. B. Lifted mood. C. Better brain function. D. Fewer painful experiences. 27. What is the author’s tone in the last paragraph? A Serious. B. Amusing. C. Worried. D. Doubtful. C Many of us think, wrongly, that the moon doesn’t change. For example, the Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu once wrote that “Generations have come and passed away; From year to year the moons look alike, old and new.” However, a new study published in the journal Nature Geoscience shows that the moon is in fact slowly reduced in size over time. For the study, a group of US scientists examined and analyzed thousands of photographs taken by the NASA’s Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter Camera (月球勘测轨道飞行器照相机). They found that there were lots of faults (断层) on the surface of the moon. These faults were formed by recent movement on the moon. According to NASA, the moon is made up of pieces of rocks with a hot core. The moon continued to expand as it was born. But in this process, it released energy and cooled down. Then it began to shrink, in a way comparable to the shrinking of a grape into a raisin. Over the past several hundred million years, it has become 46 meters “skinnier”. But due to its hard and rocky layer, the moon’s surface continues to push up. “Some of these quakes can be fairly strong, around five on the Richter scale (里氏震级),” said Thomas Watters, a senior scientist at the Smithsonian’s National Air and Space Museum in the US. But does that mean the moon is a dangerous place that human shouldn’t try to explore and live on in the future? Maybe not, reported The Telegraph. “This isn’t anything to worry about. The moon may become smaller, but not by much. It’s not going anywhere,” Watters comforted us. The new discovery proves that the idea that the moon is a dead, boring place is wrong. “We have been to the moon and we’ve done some great science, but there is still a lot we don’t know. The moon is shrinking — we didn’t really realize that until recently. It’s a much more active and interesting place than we thought and we should explore that,” NASA scientist Nathan Williams said. 28. Which point of view about the moon may the writer agree to? A. It stays the same as before. B. It is becoming slightly smaller. C. It is getting older and older. D. It has passed away. 29. What can we learn about the moon from the third paragraph? A. Its quake measures seven on the Richter scale. B. It has become 46 meters fatter due to expanding. C. It has a hot core and releases energy during expanding. D. It has changed from a grape into a raisin in recent years. 30. What does Nathan Williams think of the moon? A. It is a dead and boring place. B. It has lots of faults on the surface. C. It is valuable to do more science. D. It isn’t a place where we can live. 31. Which of the following can be the most suitable title for the article? A. “The Moon: A Static and Boring Place” B. “The Changing Moon: A New Discovery” C. “The Mysterious Moon: Faults and Quakes” D. “Exploring the Moon: Dangers and Opportunities” D The internet provides access to a large amount of information. However, you might notice that the same ideas or views frequently reappear on certain social media platforms. If this happens, be cautious. You may be in what’s called an information cocoon (信息茧房) — a space where only similar opinions spread. This phenomenon, which has existed since the early eras of human culture, has been significantly enlarged by the widespread use of social media. Imagine ancient people gathered around a bonfire, sharing only stories and experiences that reinforced their collective worldview. Today, the internet serves as the modern “bonfire”, with social media platforms connecting people globally and enabling the sharing of thoughts and beliefs. You might have noticed that social media advertising seems to “magically” understand your interests, presenting ads that are surprisingly related. This is the result of complex algorithms (算法) — sets of instructions designed to perform tasks or solve problems. Every time we click, like, or share something, we leave a digital footprint that helps algorithms better understand our interests, values and beliefs. Algorithms then use this information to provide content that meets our interests. Although information cocoons can provide a sense of belonging, they also bring some negative effects. Engaging with others only within limited information space results in one-sided individual’s viewpoint, making it hard for them to accept different views and discuss complex issues. Information cocoons can also contribute to increasing division and anxiety, which further divides societies. They make it unclear between facts and opinions. This weakness leaves us open to misinformation, influencing both personal decisions and social energy. Fortunately, there are many ways to break out of the information cocoon. Actively seeking diverse information sources is very important for overcoming these limitations. This can involve diversifying (使多样化) our social media content, reading articles from various views, and joining meaningful discussions with people from different backgrounds. Besides, training critical thinking skills is essential. We should check facts and remain open to changing our beliefs. 32. The information cocoon is increasingly becoming large because ________. A. A great deal of information is provided. B. A growing number of people turn to social media. C. Various similar opinions spread in the information cocoon. D. Stories and experiences are usually shared in people’s gatherings 33. Why does the author mention “algorithms” in Paragraph 3? A. To analyze how social media impacts our preferences. B. To indicate how algorithms perform tasks or problems. C. To explain why we always read satisfying content on social media platforms. D. To show why algorithms are important in affecting our decisions and beliefs. 34. Which of the following is the negative effect of information cocoons? A. A person sticking to his own opinion. B. A society filled with energy. C. A person willing to join in discussions. D. A society full of various views. 35. What does the author advise us to do to get away from the information cocoon? A. Voice our own views openly. B. Develop critical thinking ability. C. Communicate with like-minded people. D. Search specific information sources. 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面材料，从材料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。 The black box is used to record all the activities of a plane during its flight.
