B My eldest daughter has finished her Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) exams recently, which feels like a significant event for our family. Not just because our first child is about to graduate from 13 years of school — but also because my wife and I have run our fine dining restaurant since she started kindergarten. When Saori and I opened Kazuki’s in Victoria in 2011, our eldest was only four, and our youngest had just turned two. Starting our first restaurant wasn’t just about making good food and offering great service. I worked 15 hours a day, six days a week. My body was always tense and achy; I didn’t sleep well when the restaurant wasn’t busy. On top of that, I was still an inexperienced parent. Sometimes I wonder if my children felt a bit lonely with their parents being so busy during the early years. Since our families are all in Japan, it was hard to balance running a business and raising young kids without any nearby grandparents, aunties or uncles to help out. But we found something special — our “community family”. By chance, there were three families in the neighbourhood with kids of a similar age to my daughters, all without family nearby. We became close. The saying “It takes a village to raise a child” couldn’t be more true — we became our little village. The kids had countless play dates, sleepovers, lunches, dinners and birthdays together over a decade. As they’ve grown into teenagers, the village has probably completed its job of raising the kids together, but it still feels like we are one big family. Saori and I have found a better work-life balance — Saori works mostly from home and I’m in charge of the on-site operation of the business. I’m much more present and patient with them. On my days off, the family gathers around the table while I cook — I love serving fine-dining to my customers but I cherish making home-style food for my family too. 4. What can be inferred about the author’s daughter from paragraph 1? A. She’s passed the exam with his help. B. Her experiences are not hard enough. C. She’s predicted the restaurant’s future. D. Her graduation does not come easily. 5. What was the author’s challenge when he and his wife opened Kazuki’s? A. Balancing work and family. B. Avoiding staff’s working extra hours. C. Dealing with a lack of customers. D. Finding ways to improve food quality. 6. What does “It takes a village to raise a child” emphasize? A. The importance of community. B. The cost of raising a child. C. The role of grandparents. D. The need for more children. 7. What does the author intend to tell us by writing the text? A. The joy of cooking. B. The value of family. C. The stress of parenting. D. The benefits of business. C Mountain lions in the Santa Monica Mountains are showing remarkable adaptability by adjusting their activity patterns, according to a new study. The study, led by University of California Davis researcher Ellie Bolas, tracked 22 mountain lions in the region. The findings show that mountain lions living in areas with higher human presence are becoming more nocturnal(夜行性) to minimize interactions with humans. This is different from those living far away from people, who still hunt and play at sunrise and sunset like they used to. This behavioral adaptation allows these large wild animals to successfully coexist in one of the world’s largest urban(城市) areas. The study identified interesting differences in activity patterns. Female mountain lions showed more activity during daylight hours to stay away from male lions that might threaten their babies. The most nocturnal behavior was observed in two male lions living in areas with high human activity and development. These behavioral changes demonstrate the cats’ natural tendency to avoid human contact rather than become habituated to people. Seth Riley, branch chief for wildlife at Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, notes that these adaptations reflect subtle(微妙的) ways humans impact wildlife beyond direct threats like the vehicle hitting them. The research team recommends that humans also adapt their own behavior to support coexistence. They suggest people should be more careful while driving at night and be aware that dawn and dusk remain active periods for mountain lion movement. “This flexibility we see in mountain lion activity is what allows us to share these natural areas together. Mountain lions are doing the work so that coexistence can happen,” explains Bolas. The study highlights the need for continued human effort in conservation. As Bolas notes, “Coexistence is happening, and it’s in large part because of what mountain lions are doing.” 8. Which best describes the activity patterns of mountain lions in remote locations? A. Nocturnal. B. Traditional. C. Changeable. D. Controllable. 9. Why are female mountain lions more active during the daytime? A. To hunt more effectively for babies. B. To enjoy competing with others. C. To avoid encounters with male lions. D. To deal with urban development. 10. What do the researchers advise us to do for mountain lions? A. Get to know their active periods. B. Try to drive in the daytime carefully. C. Reduce human activity in urban areas. D. Relocate them to the undeveloped areas. 11. What is Bolas’ attitude to mountain lions’ being nocturnal? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Admiring. D If you mindlessly use an electronic device for too long, you might start to experience brain rot. Brain rot is a term that describes either the cause or effect of spending hours online viewing unimportant information. It communicates concerns about the impact of consuming too much low-quality online content, especially on social media, Oxford University Press language experts said. After it first became popular on TikTok, the use of it went up by 230% from 2023 to 2024, they pointed out. Following a public vote involving more than 37,000 people, brain rot was chosen as the 2024 Word of the Year. “I find it interesting that the term brain rot has been adopted by younger people, who are largely responsible for the use and creation of the digital content the term refers to,” President of Oxford Languages Casper Grathwohl said. “These young people have amplified the expression through social media channels, the very place said to cause brain rot,” Grathwohl continued. “It shows that younger people know and joke about the harmful impact of social media that they’ve grown up with.” Psychologist(心理学家) Andrew Przybylski agreed. “There has been a lot of disbelief around technology in the past decade, a period that some have called the ‘techlash,’” Przybylski said. “Since more of our day-to-day lives happen online, it’s reasonable for us to blame whatever occurs — whether it’s good or bad — on the technologies that make these interactions possible. There are countless media headlines that make technology seem bad, and on top of that, we also have our own annoying experiences,” he continued. “The term brain rot shows this dissatisfaction,” Przybylski said. “It offers us a real opportunity to stop and ask ourselves: Why are we using technology? What are we getting out of it? How can we live with it differently?” 12. What can we learn about the term brain rot from paragraph 2? A. What it means. B. How it was created. C. Why it’s used widely. D. Where it came from. 13. What does the underlined word “amplified” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ignored. B. Reduced. C. Spread. D. Misunderstood. 14. Which of the following may Przybylski agree with? A. Brain rot reflects a sign of trust in tech. B. Brain rot can urge us to use tech wisely. C. Media have promoted the wide use of tech. D. Youth aren’t aware of media impact on tech. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rise of Quality Content Online B. The Impact of Media on the Young C. Brain Rot: The 2024 Word of the Year D. Brain Rot: Trend in the Use of Media 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As time goes by, remarkable changes have taken place in people’s daily lives.

One day, he went for an interview at a company, hoping to land a job. The boss of the company noticed that his hair was long and dirty and his clothes were torn. So, the boss gave him 20 dollars and said, “I’d like to give you a chance. If you can find a barber shop to get a haircut and change into clean clothes within today, I’ll offer you a job.” Hans quickly left the company and searched for barber shops one after another. Eventually, he found a barber shop that didn’t seem too expensive. The barber shop was rented by Benny. When Hans told Benny that he didn’t have much money, Benny said, “Don’t worry about that, young man.” After the haircut, Hans looked like a new man. He tried to give Benny the 20 dollars. But Benny said, “No, you don’t need to pay me. Keep the money as you need it more.” Hans thanked Benny wholeheartedly for giving him a free haircut and shared with Benny the job opportunity offered by the company’s boss. Hearing this, Benny handed his suit to Hans and said, “Take a shower here, put on the suit and head to the interview right away.” Hans thanked him again and again. Hans went back to the company hurriedly. The boss kept his word and gave him a job. He worked hard and won the boss’s trust and favor.10 years later, he became an investor and owned quite a number of properties. However, Benny, who was always willing to help others, couldn’t afford to pay the rent for the barber shop. So the landlord (房东) sold it to someone else and Benny had no choice but to move out, which meant losing the barber shop that his family relied on for a living.

Not just because our first child is about to graduate from 13 years of school — but also because my wife and I have run our fine dining restaurant since she started kindergarten. When Saori and I opened Kazuki’s in Victoria in 2011, our eldest was only four, and our youngest had just turned two. Starting our first restaurant wasn’t just about making good food and offering great service. I worked 15 hours a day, six days a week. My body was always tense and achy; I didn’t sleep well when the restaurant wasn’t busy. On top of that, I was still an inexperienced parent. Sometimes I wonder if my children felt a bit lonely with their parents being so busy during the early years. Since our families are all in Japan, it was hard to balance running a business and raising young kids without any nearby grandparents, aunties or uncles to help out. But we found something special — our “community family”. By chance, there were three families in the neighbourhood with kids of a similar age to my daughters, all without family nearby. We became close. The saying “It takes a village to raise a child” couldn’t be more true — we became our little village. The kids had countless play dates, sleepovers, lunches, dinners and birthdays together over a decade. As they’ve grown into teenagers, the village has probably completed its job of raising the kids together, but it still feels like we are one big family. Saori and I have found a better work-life balance — Saori works mostly from home and I’m in charge of the on-site operation of the business. I’m much more present and patient with them. On my days off, the family gathers around the table while I cook — I love serving fine-dining to my customers but I cherish making home-style food for my family too. 4. What can be inferred about the author’s daughter from paragraph 1? A. She’s passed the exam with his help. B. Her experiences are not hard enough. C. She’s predicted the restaurant’s future. D. Her graduation does not come easily. 5. What was the author’s challenge when he and his wife opened Kazuki’s? A. Balancing work and family. B. Avoiding staff’s working extra hours. C. Dealing with a lack of customers. D. Finding ways to improve food quality. 6. What does “It takes a village to raise a child” emphasize? A. The importance of community. B. The cost of raising a child. C. The role of grandparents. D. The need for more children. 7. What does the author intend to tell us by writing the text? A. The joy of cooking. B. The value of family. C. The stress of parenting. D. The benefits of business. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者一家经营餐厅的同时抚养孩子的不易，以及在这个过程中得到的社区的帮助，还有如今找到更好的工作生活平衡的状态。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“My eldest daughter has finished her Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE) exams recently, which feels like a significant event for our family. Not just because our first child is about to graduate from 13 years of school — but also because my wife and I have run our fine dining restaurant since she started kindergarten.(我的大女儿最近完成了她的维多利亚教育证书（VCE）考试，这对我们的家庭来说是一件大事。不仅仅是因为我们的第一个孩子即将从13年的学校生活中毕业，还因为自从她上幼儿园开始，我和妻子就一直在经营我们的精致餐厅)”可推知，作者夫妻二人经营餐厅的同时还要照顾孩子，大女儿的毕业来之不易。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Starting our first restaurant wasn’t just about making good food and offering great service. I worked 15 hours a day, six days a week. My body was always tense and achy; I didn’t sleep well when the restaurant wasn’t busy. On top of that, I was still an inexperienced parent. Sometimes I wonder if my children felt a bit lonely with their parents being so busy during the early years.(开第一家餐厅不仅仅是为了做好吃的食物和提供优质的服务。我每天工作15个小时，每周工作6天。我的身体总是紧张和疼痛；餐馆不繁忙的时候我睡不好。最重要的是，我还是一个没有经验的家长。有时我想知道，我的孩子在他们的父母早年如此忙碌的情况下是否感到有点孤独)”和第三段“Since our families are all in Japan, it was hard to balance running a business and raising young kids without any nearby grandparents, aunties or uncles to help out.(由于我们的家人都在日本，在没有祖父母、叔叔阿姨帮忙的情况下，很难平衡经营生意和抚养年幼的孩子)”可知，当作者和他的妻子开Kazuki餐厅时，他们的挑战是平衡工作和家庭。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“By chance, there were three families in the neighbourhood with kids of a similar age to my daughters, all without family nearby. We became close. The saying “It takes a village to raise a child” couldn’t be more true — we became our little village. The kids had countless play dates, sleepovers, lunches, dinners and birthdays together over a decade.(碰巧，附近有三户人家的孩子和我的女儿年龄相仿，但都没有家人住在附近。我们变得很亲密。俗话说：“一个孩子需要一个村庄来抚养”，再正确不过了——我们变成了我们的小村庄。十多年来，孩子们一起玩了无数次，一起过夜，一起吃午饭、晚饭，一起过生日)”可知，没有家人在身边，邻居们互相帮助，孩子们一起长大，这正好印证了“养一个孩子需要一个村子”这句话，这句话强调了社区的重要性。故选A。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Saori and I have found a better work-life balance — Saori works mostly from home and I’m in charge of the on-site operation of the business. I’m much more present and patient with them. On my days off, the family gathers around the table while I cook — I love serving fine-dining to my customers but I cherish making home-style food for my family too.(Saori和我找到了更好的工作与生活的平衡——Saori大部分时间在家工作，我负责业务的现场运营。我对他们更有耐心。在我休息的日子里，当我做饭的时候，家人聚在餐桌旁——我喜欢为顾客提供美味佳肴，但我也喜欢为家人做家常菜)”可推知，作者写这篇文章是想告诉我们家庭的价值。故选B。 C Mountain lions in the Santa Monica Mountains are showing remarkable adaptability by adjusting their activity patterns, according to a new study. The study, led by University of California Davis researcher Ellie Bolas, tracked 22 mountain lions in the region. The findings show that mountain lions living in areas with higher human presence are becoming more nocturnal(夜行性) to minimize interactions with humans. This is different from those living far away from people, who still hunt and play at sunrise and sunset like they used to. This behavioral adaptation allows these large wild animals to successfully coexist in one of the world’s largest urban(城市) areas. The study identified interesting differences in activity patterns. Female mountain lions showed more activity during daylight hours to stay away from male lions that might threaten their babies. The most nocturnal behavior was observed in two male lions living in areas with high human activity and development. These behavioral changes demonstrate the cats’ natural tendency to avoid human contact rather than become habituated to people. Seth Riley, branch chief for wildlife at Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, notes that these adaptations reflect subtle(微妙的) ways humans impact wildlife beyond direct threats like the vehicle hitting them. The research team recommends that humans also adapt their own behavior to support coexistence. They suggest people should be more careful while driving at night and be aware that dawn and dusk remain active periods for mountain lion movement. “This flexibility we see in mountain lion activity is what allows us to share these natural areas together. Mountain lions are doing the work so that coexistence can happen,” explains Bolas. The study highlights the need for continued human effort in conservation. As Bolas notes, “Coexistence is happening, and it’s in large part because of what mountain lions are doing.” 8. Which best describes the activity patterns of mountain lions in remote locations? A. Nocturnal. B. Traditional. C. Changeable. D. Controllable. 9. Why are female mountain lions more active during the daytime? A. To hunt more effectively for babies. B. To enjoy competing with others. C. To avoid encounters with male lions. D. To deal with urban development. 10. What do the researchers advise us to do for mountain lions? A. Get to know their active periods. B. Try to drive in the daytime carefully. C. Reduce human activity in urban areas. D. Relocate them to the undeveloped areas. 11. What is Bolas’ attitude to mountain lions’ being nocturnal? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Unclear. D. Admiring. 【答案】8. B 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一项新研究发现，圣莫尼卡山脉的美洲狮通过调整活动模式来适应环境，尤其是那些生活在人类活动频繁区域的美洲狮变得更加夜行性，以减少与人类的接触，同时研究还指出了雌性美洲狮和雄性美洲狮活动模式的差异，并强调了人类应采取措施与美洲狮共存。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“This is different from those living far away from people, who still hunt and play at sunrise and sunset like they used to.(这与那些远离人类的(美洲狮)不同，它们仍然像过去一样在日出和日落时狩猎和玩耍)”可知，偏远地区的美洲狮活动模式是传统的，故选B项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Female mountain lions showed more activity during daylight hours to stay away from male lions that might threaten their babies.(雌性美洲狮在白天更加活跃，以避开可能威胁其幼崽的雄性美洲狮)”可知，雌性美洲狮在白天更活跃是为了避免与雄性美洲狮相遇，故选C项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“They suggest people should be more careful while driving at night and be aware that dawn and dusk remain active periods for mountain lion movement.(他们建议人们在夜间开车时应该更加小心，并意识到黎明和黄昏仍然是美洲狮活动的活跃时期)”可知，研究人员建议我们了解美洲狮的活跃期，故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This flexibility we see in mountain lion activity is what allows us to share these natural areas together. Mountain lions are doing the work so that coexistence can happen(我们看到的美洲狮活动的这种灵活性，使得我们能够共同分享这些自然区域。美洲狮正在努力做到这一点，从而实现人类与它们的共存)”可知，美洲狮活动的灵活性，使得我们能够共同分享这些自然区域，可推理出Bolas对美洲狮的夜行性持钦佩态度，故选D项。 D If you mindlessly use an electronic device for too long, you might start to experience brain rot. Brain rot is a term that describes either the cause or effect of spending hours online viewing unimportant information. It communicates concerns about the impact of consuming too much low-quality online content, especially on social media, Oxford University Press language experts said. After it first became popular on TikTok, the use of it went up by 230% from 2023 to 2024, they pointed out. Following a public vote involving more than 37,000 people, brain rot was chosen as the 2024 Word of the Year. “I find it interesting that the term brain rot has been adopted by younger people, who are largely responsible for the use and creation of the digital content the term refers to,” President of Oxford Languages Casper Grathwohl said. “These young people have amplified the expression through social media channels, the very place said to cause brain rot,” Grathwohl continued. “It shows that younger people know and joke about the harmful impact of social media that they’ve grown up with.” Psychologist(心理学家) Andrew Przybylski agreed. “There has been a lot of disbelief around technology in the past decade, a period that some have called the ‘techlash,’” Przybylski said. “Since more of our day-to-day lives happen online, it’s reasonable for us to blame whatever occurs — whether it’s good or bad — on the technologies that make these interactions possible. There are countless media headlines that make technology seem bad, and on top of that, we also have our own annoying experiences,” he continued. “The term brain rot shows this dissatisfaction,” Przybylski said. “It offers us a real opportunity to stop and ask ourselves: Why are we using technology? What are we getting out of it? How can we live with it differently?” 12. What can we learn about the term brain rot from paragraph 2? A. What it means. B. How it was created. C. Why it’s used widely. D. Where it came from. 13. What does the underlined word “amplified” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Ignored. B. Reduced. C. Spread. D. Misunderstood. 14. Which of the following may Przybylski agree with? A. Brain rot reflects a sign of trust in tech. B. Brain rot can urge us to use tech wisely. C. Media have promoted the wide use of tech. D. Youth aren’t aware of media impact on tech. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Rise of Quality Content Online B. The Impact of Media on the Young C. Brain Rot: The 2024 Word of the Year D. Brain Rot: Trend in the Use of Media 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章主要介绍了“brain rot（脑腐）”这一词汇被选为2024年度词汇，解释了其含义，以及年轻人对该词汇的使用和心理学家对这一现象的看法。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中“Brain rot is a term that describes either the cause or effect of spending hours online viewing unimportant information. It communicates concerns about the impact of consuming too much low-quality online content, especially on social media, Oxford University Press language experts said.(“脑腐”是一个用来描述花数小时在网上浏览无关紧要信息的原因或结果的术语。牛津大学出版社的语言专家表示，它传达了人们对过度消费低质量网络内容，尤其是在社交媒体上的这种行为所带来影响的担忧)”可知，“脑腐”是一个用来描述长时间在网络上浏览不重要信息的原因或结果的词，这个词传达了人们对过度消费低质量网络内容所带来影响的担忧；因此，从第二段可以了解到“脑腐”这个术语的含义。故选A项。 【13题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中划线词上文“I find it interesting that the term brain rot has been adopted by younger people, who are largely responsible for the use and creation of the digital content the term refers to(我觉得有趣的是，‘脑腐’这个词被年轻人所采用，他们在很大程度上是这个词所指的数字内容的使用者和创造者。)”以及划线词下文“the expression through social media channels, the very place said to cause brain rot(通过社交媒体渠道……了这个表达，而社交媒体正是被认为会导致“脑腐”的地方。)”可知，年轻人在很大程度上是“脑腐”这个词的使用者和创造者，他们在社交媒体上使用“脑腐”这个词，使这一表达被传播出去，可推测amplified意思是“传播”，与spread意思一致，即年轻人通过社交媒体传播了这个表达。故选C项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““The term brain rot shows this dissatisfaction,” Przybylski said. “It offers us a real opportunity to stop and ask ourselves: Why are we using technology? What are we getting out of it? How can we live with it differently?”（“‘脑腐’这个词表达了这种不满，” 普日比尔斯基说。“它为我们提供了一个真正的机会，让我们停下来问问自己：我们为什么要使用技术？我们能从中得到什么？我们如何以不同的方式与技术共处？”）”可知，普日比尔斯基认为“脑腐”这个词能促使我们思考如何使用技术，可推理出“脑腐”这个词能促使我们明智地使用技术。故选B项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开篇引入“brain rot(脑腐)”这一词汇，接着介绍了它的含义，它被选为2024年度词汇，以及年轻人对该词汇的使用和心理学家对这一现象的看法，全文围绕“脑腐”这个被选为2024年度词汇的词展开。C项“Brain Rot: The 2024 Word of the Year(‘脑腐’：2024 年度词汇)”最能概括文章主旨，适合作为最佳标题，故选C项。 第二节（共5 小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 As time goes by, remarkable changes have taken place in people’s daily lives.

One day, he went for an interview at a company, hoping to land a job. The boss of the company noticed that his hair was long and dirty and his clothes were torn. So, the boss gave him 20 dollars and said, “I’d like to give you a chance. If you can find a barber shop to get a haircut and change into clean clothes within today, I’ll offer you a job.” Hans quickly left the company and searched for barber shops one after another. Eventually, he found a barber shop that didn’t seem too expensive. The barber shop was rented by Benny. When Hans told Benny that he didn’t have much money, Benny said, “Don’t worry about that, young man.” After the haircut, Hans looked like a new man. He tried to give Benny the 20 dollars. But Benny said, “No, you don’t need to pay me. Keep the money as you need it more.” Hans thanked Benny wholeheartedly for giving him a free haircut and shared with Benny the job opportunity offered by the company’s boss. Hearing this, Benny handed his suit to Hans and said, “Take a shower here, put on the suit and head to the interview right away.” Hans thanked him again and again. Hans went back to the company hurriedly. The boss kept his word and gave him a job. He worked hard and won the boss’s trust and favor.10 years later, he became an investor and owned quite a number of properties. However, Benny, who was always willing to help others, couldn’t afford to pay the rent for the barber shop.
