B When I was a child in the 1980s, advertisements showed up in predictable ways: as 30-second video spots (插播广告) during TV shows, audio ads on the radio, or print ads in newspapers or magazines. The advertising our children see is very different. Since the advent of the Internet and mobile technology, ads can reach us anytime, anywhere, and target us based on what our online behavior reveals. This includes whether your phone’s GPS regularly goes to church; whether you make in-app purchases when you’ve lost too many games in a row; or whether you comment with emojis when your friends post their difficult experiences. These online behaviors say a lot about us, whether we know it or not. Traditional marketing tries to find creative ways to convince us we need to buy things. Sometimes marketing crosses a line into manipulation (操控) — particularly with children, who don’t process advertising the way adults do. In a study in pediatrics (儿科学), for example, researchers found that fast-food commercials were trying to cue viewers’ attention to the free toys in kids’ meals, hoping that kids may find the trinkets irresistible and then beg their parents for fast food. We are raising kids in the Internet age, and marketing now goes far beyond predictable video spots. App developers and platforms make more money when more ads are viewed or clicked and children are a prime target. Some developers use manipulative approaches like showing a sparkling present, which takes the child to an ad when clicked. It’s also common for kids to earn rewards such as virtual candy for watching ads, and ad viewing can take up more time than playing the game itself. Free video streaming platforms are incredibly popular among kids. These platforms have user-generated content that can be really funny and creative. They try to grab eyeballs with videos that keep kids coming back, which translates to more ad dollars. Raising kids in the Internet age means teaching them to recognize it when someone is trying to sell them new things or new ideas, from toys to misinformation. Let’s raise the next generation of critical digital thinkers. 24. Which word would the author use to describe today’s advertising? A. Predictable. B. Instructive. C. Personalized. D. Reliable. 25. What does the underlined part “the trinkets” in paragraph 3 refer to? A. The meals. B. The free toys. C. The video spots. D. The commercial TV channels. 26. How do free video streaming platforms make money? A. By raising visits to the videos. B. By analysing clicks linked to ads. C. By offering advice on ad content. D. By charging eye-catching content. 27. What is the author’s suggestion in the last paragraph? A. The number of online ads should be limited. B. People should learn to recognize Internet ads. C. Advertisers should stop using toys to distract kids. D. Parents should raise kids’ awareness of advertising traps. C The chocolate chip cookie has been beloved by children and adults for decades. Let’s find out how this treat became an American favorite. From 1930 to 1967, Ruth Wakefield and her husband, Kenneth, ran the Toll House Inn, a restaurant in Whitman, Massachusetts. Wakefield, who had a college degree in household arts, enjoyed experimenting with baking. She is credited with creating the chocolate chip cookie, but no one is sure how she came up with the recipe. One theory is that while baking butter drop cookies she ran out of the baker’s chocolate and created it by chopping up a semi-sweet chocolate bar and adding it to the dough (生面团). Instead of melting, the chocolate bits held their shapes. The cookies were a hit with inn visitors. By the late 1930s, Marjorie Husted, who was also known as Betty Crocker, hosted a radio program for home cooks. She introduced Wakefield’s cookbooks and her chocolate chip cookies to the national audience. In 1939, Wakefield and Nestlé reached an agreement. She gave the company the rights to use her recipe and the Toll House name. In return, Nestlé promised her $1 and a lifetime supply of chocolate. Nestlé began to print her recipe on its packaging and soon launched Toll House morsels. As the US endured the Great Depression (1929-1933), a time of hardship for many Americans, the chocolate chip cookie represented an inexpensive yet delicious handheld treat. During World War II, people across the US sent care packages of freshly baked chocolate chip cookies to soldiers who were serving overseas. In the 1950s, Pillsbury and other brands began selling refrigerated chocolate chip cookie dough in supermarkets, which enabled people to more easily bake cookies at home. The food company Nabisco launched Chips Ahoy!, a line of packaged chocolate chip cookies, in 1963. In Los Angeles, California, in 1975, Wally Amos opened his first Famous Amos cookie store. The brand Ben & Jerry’s introduced chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream in 1984, after a customer at its Burlington store left a note proposing the new flavor. By the mid-1980s, more than 1,200 cookie stores and stands, such as Mrs. Fields, were in business across America. Today, about 7 billion chocolate chip cookies, which came to be a symbol of comfort and home, are eaten in the US every year. 28. Which best describes the invention of the chocolate chip cookie? A. Intentional. B. Accidental. C. Traditional. D. Ridiculous. 29. How did Marjorie Husted contribute to the popularity of the chocolate chip cookie? A. By striking a deal with Nestlé. B. By improving its package design. C By introducing advanced equipment. D. By promoting cookie recipes on a radio program. 30. Why did the chocolate chip cookie become popular during the Great Depression? A. For its rich ingredients. B. For its intensive marketing. C. For its price and taste. D. For its easy cooking. 31. What can be inferred about the chocolate chip cookie from the last paragraph? A. It is a seasonal treat in the US. B. The annual consumption is declining. C. It symbolizes comfort and home. D. It is featured in community gatherings. D Social psychologists have found that cooperative work with people from diverse groups can reduce prejudice and conflict. This is demonstrated by the Robbers Cave study where two groups of boys despised each other after competitive games but bonded after jointly solving problems. Similarly, in Elliot Aronson’s jigsaw classroom, students of different ethnicities assisting each other in learning has shown the same effect. These studies reflect the contact hypothesis proposed by psychologist Gordon Allport: Prejudice decreases when groups of equal status cooperate to achieve shared goals, and interact under supportive conditions. Later studies have shown that even without optimal conditions like equal status, friendly interactions alone can reduce prejudice. This happens because spending time with people from different groups reduces anxiety and fosters empathy, thus lowering prejudice and conflict. However, critics argue that the contact hypothesis may not work in situations where there is a charged history between two groups. For instance, a historically privileged group might feel threatened by the other group, or a historically disadvantaged group may feel they’ve been treated unfairly by the other group. For example, will white men who feel threatened by immigrants feel less prejudiced after interacting with them? Will women who feel they’ve been treated unfairly in the workplace feel better about men after interacting with senior male colleagues? The answers are uncertain. In a multinational study, researchers analyzed 34 studies involving 64,000 participants from 19 countries to examine the effect of intergroup contact on individuals who felt threatened or unfairly treated. Results showed that interaction with different groups generally led to less prejudice, confirming the contact hypothesis. However, the effect size was typically modest. Interestingly, those who felt threatened or unfairly treated also benefitted from contact. This means that perceived threat and discrimination did not lessen the positive effects of interaction. The study’s leader, Jasper Van Assche, suggests that contact is beneficial in promoting tolerance, even in challenging situations. 32. What is the main finding of the Robbers Cave study? A. Competitive games increased prejudice. B. Cooperative work caused conflict. C. Joint problem-solving improved relationships. D. Prejudice can be removed through joint problem-solving. 33. According to the contact hypothesis, prejudice decreases when groups of equal status ________. A. compete against each other B. cooperate to achieve shared goals C. maintain a sense of superiority D. interact under unsupportive conditions 34. What would Jasper Van Assche advocate according to his study? A. A running race. B. A picnic in the mountain. C. A fashion design contest. D. A handwriting competition. 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. The impact of competition on prejudice reduction B. Historical factors influencing intergroup contact effects C. Benefits of interacting with outgroup members D. The role of empathy in conflict resolution 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。 We’ve all been there: you say the wrong thing and you want the ground to swallow you up! Here are some tips on how to deal with awkward situations. You forgot the name of someone you know. ____36____ These things happen to everyone. Just say “Oops, I’ve forgotten your name” and promise to remember it next time. When the person reminds you of his or her name, repeat it aloud as a way of helping you remember it better. You’ve come across a friend who didn’t invite you to their wedding. Your circle of university buddies swore you’d be friends forever. So, your feelings were hurt when, five years after graduation, one of them invited everyone else to their wedding but not you. ____37____ In this case, take the high road and don’t mention not going to the wedding. Perhaps you lived far away from the ceremony or maybe the other friends had stayed in closer touch with them than you had. Whatever the reason, don’t make a big deal of it. ____38____ A stranger asked you a personal question. Perhaps you’re out of work. Or your brother has a birthmark. You’d think these matters would be your business alone, but unfortunately there are many curious people out there. Although such questions are rude, frankly telling the questioner to mind their own business is not the way to go. People don’t mean to be rude. ____39____ Your friend has bad breath. How do you tell your friend they have breath that would slay the devil? Here’s an easy, roundabout way: pop a piece of gum into your own mouth and then offer one to your friend. ____40____ And if they accept your offer, everyone wins. A. Give them the benefit of the doubt. B. This way, you won’t be saying anything directly. C. You’ve just run into them, and you feel awkward. D. Instead, congratulate them and wish them the best. E. By chance, you saw your former boss on the street. F. Don’t be ashamed when you are in such a situation. G. Simply express your disappointment and hurt feelings. 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Our daughter Missy, 14, had agreed to babysit four young girls in our home while their parents went to work.

Finding water on the moon is, on its own, nothing new. NASA and Indian spacecraft have spotted ____57____ they believe to be water on the moon’s surface. But this latest discovery, scientists say, is the first time water in its molecular form, H2O, ____58____ (find) in physical samples — and, ____59____ (important), it was retrieved from a part of the moon ____60____ they’d previously thought water in that form couldn’t exist. Researchers closely inspected samples collected by China’s Chang’e-5 probe, which landed on the lunar surface in 2020, ____61____ found a “prismatic, plate-like transparent crystal” — roughly the ____62____ (wide) of a human hair — that was in fact an “unknown lunar mineral” dubbed ULM-1, according to the study, which was published on July 16 in the journal Nature Astronomy. The ULM-1 crystal is made up of roughly 41% water, with bits of ammonia that keep H2O molecules stable ____63____ wild temperature swings on the moon. This type of water could be a potential “resource for lunar habitation”, the scientists wrote in their study. “The discovery of a hydrated mineral at the Chang’e-5 landing site is ____64____ (fascinate) and will ______65______ (far) enhance our understanding of rock-vapor reactions in the lunar crust and on the lunar surface,” said David A. Kring, principal scientist at the Lunar and Planetary Institute in Texas, who was not involved in the study. 第四部分 写作 (共两节,满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 66. 假定你是李华,上周末你们年级举行了一场篮球比赛。请你给你的英国朋友Chris写一封邮件分享这次经历,内容包括: (1)比赛情况; (2)你的感想。 注意: (1)写作词数应80个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Dear Chris, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 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。 Jack had always been different from the other kids in his class. While most of his friends spent their free time playing sports or video games, Jack preferred to paint. He found joy in mixing colors and creating images on canvas. It was his passion, and he dreamed of becoming a famous artist one day. However, Jack’s parents didn’t see it that way. They believed that painting was a waste of time and would never lead to a successful career. They wanted him to focus on his studies, especially on subjects like math and science, which they thought were more practical and would secure him a good job in the future. “Jack, you need to stop spending so much time on painting,” his father said one evening during dinner. “You should be studying more. Art won’t put food on the table.” “But Dad, painting makes me happy,” Jack replied. He knew his parents didn’t understand, but he couldn’t give up his dream. Despite his parents’ disapproval, Jack continued to paint whenever he could. He would stay up late at night, working on his painting in the small corner of his room that he had turned into a makeshift studio. His brushes and paints were his escape from the pressures of school. One day, during the art class, Jack’s teacher, Mrs Wilson, noticed his work. She was amazed by his paintings. “Jack, your work is incredible,” she said. “Have you ever thought about entering a competition?” Jack shook his head and said, “My parents don’t really support my painting. They think it’s a waste of time.” Mrs Wilson smiled kindly. “Well, I think your talent deserves to be recognized. There’s a local art competition soon, and I’d like you to enter the art competition. What do you think?” Jack felt a surge of excitement and fear. “Do you really think I could win?” “I believe in you, Jack,” Mrs Wilson said firmly. “And I think this could be a great opportunity for you.” 注意: (1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 With his teacher’s encouragement, Jack decided to go for it. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Congratulations, Jack Thompson,” the letter read. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 2025年普通高等学校招生全国统一考试 英语模拟测试 本试卷共150分 考试时间120分钟 注意事项: 1.答题前,考生务必将自己的姓名、准考证号填写在答题卡上。 2.回答选择题时,选出每小题答案后,用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动,用橡皮擦干净后,再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时,将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3.考试结束后,将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力 (共两节,满分30分) 第一节 (共5小题;每小题1.5分,满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 【1题答案】 【答案】A 【2题答案】 【答案】C 【3题答案】 【答案】A 【4题答案】 【答案】C 【5题答案】 【答案】B 第二节 (共15小题;每小题1.5分,满分22.5分) 听下面5段对话或独白。每段对话或独白后有几个小题,从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听每段对话或独白前,你将有时间阅读各个小题,每小题5秒钟;听完后,各小题将给出5秒钟的作答时间。每段对话或独白读两遍。 【6~7题答案】 【答案】6.

It not only tested our physical abilities but also strengthened our teamwork. I felt proud to be part of such a dynamic event. This experience has brought our class closer and created some wonderful memories. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 【67题答案】 【答案】范文 With his teacher’s encouragement, Jack decided to go for it. He chose his favorite painting, a landscape of a sunset over a calm lake, and entered it into the competition. He didn’t tell his parents, fearing their reaction. Weeks passed, and Jack almost forgot about the competition and was busy with his schoolwork and his secret painting sessions. Then, one evening, he received a letter in the mailbox. It was from the competition organizers. With trembling hands, he opened it. “Congratulations, Jack Thompson,” the letter read. “You have won the first prize in the local art competition.” Jack could hardly believe his eyes. He ran to his parents, the letter clutched in his hand. “Mom, Dad, look! I won the art competition!” His parents read the letter, their faces changing from confusion to surprise and then to pride. “We had no idea you were this talented,” Jack’s father said. “Maybe we were wrong about your painting. We’re proud of you, son,” said his mother. From that day on, Jack’s parents supported his dream. 第1页/共1页 学科网(北京)股份有限公司 $$
