(在节日开始之前，志愿者可以帮助将ARTS FIRST指南和T-恤送到哈佛校园的各个地方，或者组织节日材料。)”可知，在节日前志愿者可帮忙分发诸如指南和T恤等节日物资。故选C。 【3题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章标题“PARTICIPATE IN ARTS FIRST 2025!( 参与 “艺术至上 2025”！)”、第一段“Harvard’s annual ARTS FIRST festival is one of the largest collegiate arts festivals in the country.( 哈佛大学一年一度的ARTS FIRST节是美国最大的大学艺术节之一。)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了2025年哈佛艺术节的相关信息，如参与方式、表演申请、志愿者招募等，是对该艺术节的介绍。故选C。 B In recent years, there has been a noticeable change in the attitude towards animal welfare here in the Philippines, a movement that I hope will lead to lasting, systemic change. Among the many inspiring and pioneering animal welfare advocates doing the good work here in the country is Rina Ortiz, founder of Biyaya Animal Care, who has a strong understanding of the popular landscape here in the country. While other animal welfare programs are dependent only on donor funding or government support, Biyaya Animal Care serves as a model on sustainable animal welfare advocacy — operating a pet clinic and using earnings to support over a thousand pets housed in an animal shelter in Alfonso, Cavite. This, of course, was made possible because Ortiz understands the challenges caused by limited resources — both from the government and the private sector—in supporting animal welfare, prompting her to find sustainable solutions to support this important cause. The Biyaya Animal Care model proves the importance of adaptability and resourcefulness. Through a self-sustaining mechanism, Biyaya Animal Care shows that animal welfare doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game but rather a cooperation where the private sector can play a more active role in pushing for the cause. I share Ortiz’s passion for sustainable animal welfare advocacy; which is why I introduced the cause to my own workplace, Meralco, and went a step further by institutionalizing it. Through Meralco, employees are able to contribute to efforts to address the overpopulation problem of homeless cats with neutering (绝育) programs.. By doing so, it also contributes to improving public health conditions since controlling the growth of the homeless animal population through neutering helps minimize the risk of rabies (狂犬病). Thus that would not only benefit animals but also contribute to the improvement of community life, public health and safety. 4. How does Biyaya Animal Care support animal rescues? A. By asking for government funding. B. By full reliance on public donations. C. With the help of other welfare programs. D. Through operating a pet clinic and using its profits. 5. What does the underlined word “prompting” in paragraph 4 mean: A. Inspiring. B. Inviting. C. Promising. D. Helping. 6. What is the author’s attitude towards Rina Ortiz’s business model? A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. indifferent. 7. What can be inferred about animal welfare in the Philippines? A. People’s concern is decreasing. B. Positive changes are taking place. C. Resources are plentiful for related work. D. The private business plays the leading role. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文 。文章主要介绍了菲律宾动物福利方面态度出现积极转变，重点叙述了“比雅亚动物关爱”组织为可持续动物福利倡导树立典范的模式及其运作方式。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“While other animal welfare programs are dependent only on donor funding or government support, Biyaya Animal Care serves as a model on sustainable animal welfare advocacy — operating a pet clinic and using earnings to support over a thousand pets housed in an animal shelter in Alfonso, Cavite. (当其他动物福利项目只依赖于捐赠资金或政府支持时，Biyaya动物护理是可持续动物福利倡导的典范——经营一家宠物诊所，并利用收入支持住在Cavite Alfonso动物收容所的1000多只宠物)”可知，Biyaya Animal Care通过运营宠物诊所，利用所得收益来支持动物救助。故选D。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“This, of course, was made possible because Ortiz understands the challenges caused by limited resources — both from the government and the private sector — in supporting animal welfare, prompting her to find sustainable solutions to support this important cause. (当然，这一切之所以成为可能，是因为奥尔蒂斯明白，在支持动物福利方面，政府和私营部门的资源有限所带来的挑战，……她寻找可持续的解决方案来支持这一重要事业)”可知，奥尔蒂斯明白资源有限带来的挑战，这促使她去寻找可持续的解决办法来支持这项重要事业。可知，prompting在此语境中有“推动、促使某人去做某事”的意思，与Inspiring 意思相近。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I share Ortiz’s passion for sustainable animal welfare advocacy; which is why I introduced the cause to my own workplace, Meralco, and went a step further by institutionalizing it. (我和奥尔蒂斯一样热衷于倡导可持续的动物福利；这就是为什么我把这项事业介绍给我自己的工作场所，Meralco，并进一步将其制度化)”可知，作者不仅赞同Rina Ortiz的经营模式，还将其引人到自己的工作场所并制度化，说明作者对 Ortiz的经营模式持支持态度。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文，尤其是首段“In recent years, there has been a noticeable change in the attitude towards animal welfare here in the Philippines, a movement that I hope will lead to lasting, systemic change. (近年来，菲律宾对动物福利的态度有了明显的变化，我希望这一运动将带来持久的、系统性的变化)”可推断，菲律宾动物福利方面态度有明显转变，暗示积极的改变正在发生。故选B。 C New Curtin University-led research has uncovered what may be the oldest direct. evidence of ancient hot water activity on Mars, showing the planet may have been habitable at some point in its past. The study analyzed a 4.45 billion-year-old zircon (锆石) grain from the famous Martian meteorite (陨石) NWA7034, also known as Black Beauty, and found geochemical “fingerprints” of water-rich liquids. Study co-author Dr Aaron Cavosie from Curtin’s School of Earth and Planetary Sciences said the discovery opened up new approaches for understanding ancient Martian overheated-liquid systems associated with magmatism (岩浆), as well as the planet’s past habitability. “We used nano-scale (纳米级) geochemistry to detect elemental evidence of hot water on Mars 4.45 billion years ago,” Dr Cavosie said. “Overheated-liquid systems were essential for the development of life on Earth and our findings suggest Mars also had water, a key factor for habitable environments, during the earliest history of surface formation.” Through nano-scale imaging, the team identified element patterns in this unique zircon, including iron, aluminum, yttrium and sodium. These elements were added as the zircon formed4.45 billion years ago, suggesting water was present during early Martian magmatic activity. Dr Cavosie said the research showed that even though Mars’ surface suffered massive meteorite strikes that caused major surface change, water was present during the early Pre-Noachian period, prior to about 4.1 billion years ago. “A 2022 Curtin study of the same zircon grain found it had been ‘shocked’ by a meteorite strike, marking it as the first and only known shocked zircon from Mars,” Dr Cavosie said. “This new study takes us a step further in understanding early Mars, by way of identifying tell-tale signs of water-rich liquids from when the grain formed, providing geochemical markers of water in the oldest known Martian surface.” 8. How does the author mainly present the research findings in the text? A. By comparing Mars with Earth. B. By giving examples and explanations. C. By quoting the words of the researchers. D. By listing a series of scientific experiments. 9. What did the nano-scale imaging find in the zircon? A. Ancient life forms. B. Hot water’s location. C. Mars’ formation time. D. Specific element patterns. 10. What can we learn about Mars from the research? A. Its surface has never changed. B. It has always been uninhabitable. C. It might have been life-friendly early. D. Water only existed on it before 4.45 billion years ago. 11. Where can the text be found? A. In a science magazine. B. In a novel. C. In a tourist guidebook. D. In a history book. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11.

To improve or even remove this condition, research has given rise to many promising technologies. Among these is non-invasive (无创的) brain stimulation: a term covering a set of techniques that can affect brain functions non-invasively from the outside, without the need for surgery. One such promising technique, in particular, is anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (atDCS). Now, scientists have identified an important factor affecting an individual’s responsiveness to atDCS. The team looked at how native learning abilities determine the effect of brain stimulation applied while learning a motor task. Their findings suggest that individuals with less efficient learning mechanisms benefit more from stimulation, while those with optimal (最优的) learning strategies might experience negative effects. The researchers employed 40 participants: 20 middle-aged adults (50 — 65 years old) and 20 older adults (over 65). Each group was further divided into those receiving active atDCS and those receiving placebo (安慰剂) stimulation. Over ten days, participants practiced a finger-tapping task designed to study motor list learning at home while receiving atDCS. The task involved copying a numerical list using a keyboard, trying to be as fast and as accurate as possible. The team then used a machine-learning model to classify participants as either “optimal” or “sub-optimal” learners, based on their first performance. The study found that sub-optimal learners, who were seemingly less efficient at completing the task at the early stages of learning, experienced a quick accuracy improvement while performing the task when receiving atDCS. This effect was not limited to people of a certain age, with sub-optimal learners being found among younger individuals as well. In contrast, participants with optimal learning strategies, regardless of age, even showed a negative tendency in performance when receiving atDCS. This difference suggests that brain stimulation is more beneficial for individuals who firstly struggle with motor tasks. As such, atDCS seems to possess a restorative rather than a strengthening quality, with important significance for recovery. 12. What is atDCS? A. A technique only for older adults. B. A way to transfer something into the brain. C. A non-invasive brain stimulation technique. D. A surgical method to improve cognitive functions. 13. What can we conclude from the study about atDCS? A. It is only useful for older adults in improving motor tasks. B. It has different effects on people with different learning strategies. C. It has no significant effects on the performance of any participants D. It has a positive effect on the participants who are good at logical thinking. 14. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4? A. The result of the experiment on different age groups. B. The way to classify participants as different learners. C. The importance of the finger-tapping task in the study. D. The introduction of the participants and the experimental process. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The Influence of Learning Abilities on the Effect of atDCS B. The Importance of Motor Tasks in Cognitive Improvement C. The Development of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation Technologies D. A Comparative Study of Motor Task Completion in Different Age Groups 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了阳极经颅直流电刺激(atDCS)的作用机制及其对不同学习能力人群的影响，揭示了该技术的恢复性而非增强性特点。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Among these is non-invasive (无创的) brain stimulation: a term covering a set of techniques that can affect brain functions non-invasively from the outside, without the need for surgery. One such promising technique, in particular, is anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (atDCS).(其中有一种技术称为无创脑刺激：这是一种涵盖了一系列技术的术语，这些技术可以从外部以非侵入的方式影响大脑功能，无需进行手术。特别是，有一种非常有前景的技术叫做阳极经颅直流电刺激(atDCS))”可知，atDCS是一种无创脑刺激技术。故选C。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“Their findings suggest that individuals with less efficient learning mechanisms benefit more from stimulation, while those with optimal (最优的) learning strategies might experience negative effects.(他们的研究结果表明，学习机制效率较低的个体从刺激中获益更多，而那些拥有最优学习策略的人可能会经历负面效果)”可知，研究发现atDCS对不同学习策略的人群有不同的效果：学习机制效率较低的人受益更多，而拥有最优学习策略的人可能会受到负面影响。这说明 atDCS 对不同学习策略的人有不同的影响。故选B。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段开头“The researchers employed 40 participants: 20 middle-aged adults (50 — 65 years old) and 20 older adults (over 65).(研究人员招募了40名参与者：20名中年人(50至65岁)和20名老年人(65岁以上))”介绍了实验参与者的情况，后面“Each group was further divided into those receiving active atDCS and those receiving placebo (安慰剂) stimulation. Over ten days, participants practiced a finger-tapping task designed to study motor list learning at home while receiving atDCS. The task involved copying a numerical list using a keyboard, trying to be as fast and as accurate as possible. The team then used a machine-learning model to classify participants as either “optimal” or “sub-optimal” learners, based on their first performance.(每个小组进一步分为两组：一组接受活跃的阳极经颅直流电刺激(atDCS)，另一组接受安慰剂刺激。在十天的时间里，参与者在家中接受阳极经颅直流电刺激的同时，练习一项旨在研究运动序列学习的敲击手指任务。该任务要求参与者使用键盘复制一个数字列表，并尽量做到又快又准确。随后，研究团队根据参与者的初次表现，利用机器学习模型将他们分类为“最优学习者”或“次优学习者”)”介绍了实验的具体过程，包括分组、任务以及对参与者的分类方式等。所以第四段主要是对参与者和实验过程的介绍。故选D。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第三段中“Their findings suggest that individuals with less efficient learning mechanisms benefit more from stimulation, while those with optimal (最优的) learning strategies might experience negative effects.(他们的研究结果表明，学习机制效率较低的个体从刺激中获益更多，而那些拥有最优学习策略的人可能会经历负面效果)”可知，文章开篇引出无创大脑刺激技术atDCS，接着重点阐述了研究发现个体的先天学习能力会影响对atDCS 的反应，后面通过实验进一步说明了不同学习策略的人对atDCS有不同反应。因此，选项A“学习能力对atDCS效果的影响”最能概括文章的主旨。故选A。 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。 The holidays are upon us, and as the end of the year draws ever closer, millions of people will visit friends and relatives. ___16___, especially if your guests don’t know how to read body language and refuse to leave.

At first, I thought she really thought I was useless and didn’t like me. But now I realize that she was just too busy and not very good at showing her love for her children in the limited time she had, and I was guessing all the time. Ever since I could remember, I’ve tried to please her and get her attention, but nothing was ever good enough. After I entered adolescence (青春期), I found the gap between us grew even wider. I thought if I did my best in every aspect, our relationship would improve. Knowing she cared about my grades, I always wanted to be at the top of my class, to be the best. She would also push me to maintain my figure. One day, she scolded me for eating a chocolate bar, and I thought maybe she worried I would become a fat girl. When I began starving myself, I just wanted to be thin enough to get her approval. I wanted to feel beautiful again, but I also hoped it would be a punishment to my mom. She would see how thin I was and regret not paying attention to me. After two months of starving, I realized my mom wasn’t going to complain about my rapid weight loss. In fact, she seemed not to notice my changes at all. She was busy every day. Once, when she came home from work and saw me, she frowned but said nothing. I guessed she didn’t like how sick and thin I looked. Then I got angry. I started eating a lot. I never ate healthy food, just any snacks I could find. Whenever I felt down or felt myself slipping into depression, I would grab a box of ice cream. It seemed like food could ease my anxiety from not getting love. By the end of the semester, not only had my body changed shape, but my grades also dropped sharply. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It wasn’t until one day that my mom finally noticed my changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mom decided to change. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 It wasn’t until one day that my mom finally noticed my changes. Looking at my growing body and dull eyes, she felt a flood of guilt and worry. She began to reflect on her behavior and realized she had been too focused on work, neglecting to care for and accompany me. She regretted not discovering my problems earlier and blamed herself for not providing enough love and support. Mom decided to change. She started to spend more time with me, listening to my heart. We took walks together, chatted, and shared our thoughts and feelings. She encouraged me to express my emotions and stopped being so demanding. With my mom’s care and company.

B In recent years, there has been a noticeable change in the attitude towards animal welfare here in the Philippines, a movement that I hope will lead to lasting, systemic change. Among the many inspiring and pioneering animal welfare advocates doing the good work here in the country is Rina Ortiz, founder of Biyaya Animal Care, who has a strong understanding of the popular landscape here in the country. While other animal welfare programs are dependent only on donor funding or government support, Biyaya Animal Care serves as a model on sustainable animal welfare advocacy — operating a pet clinic and using earnings to support over a thousand pets housed in an animal shelter in Alfonso, Cavite. This, of course, was made possible because Ortiz understands the challenges caused by limited resources — both from the government and the private sector—in supporting animal welfare, prompting her to find sustainable solutions to support this important cause. The Biyaya Animal Care model proves the importance of adaptability and resourcefulness. Through a self-sustaining mechanism, Biyaya Animal Care shows that animal welfare doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game but rather a cooperation where the private sector can play a more active role in pushing for the cause. I share Ortiz’s passion for sustainable animal welfare advocacy; which is why I introduced the cause to my own workplace, Meralco, and went a step further by institutionalizing it. Through Meralco, employees are able to contribute to efforts to address the overpopulation problem of homeless cats with neutering (绝育) programs.. By doing so, it also contributes to improving public health conditions since controlling the growth of the homeless animal population through neutering helps minimize the risk of rabies (狂犬病). Thus that would not only benefit animals but also contribute to the improvement of community life, public health and safety. 4. How does Biyaya Animal Care support animal rescues? A. By asking for government funding. B. By full reliance on public donations. C. With the help of other welfare programs. D. Through operating a pet clinic and using its profits. 5. What does the underlined word “prompting” in paragraph 4 mean: A. Inspiring. B. Inviting. C. Promising. D. Helping. 6. What is the author’s attitude towards Rina Ortiz’s business model? A. Critical. B. Doubtful. C. Supportive. D. indifferent. 7. What can be inferred about animal welfare in the Philippines? A. People’s concern is decreasing. B. Positive changes are taking place. C. Resources are plentiful for related work. D. The private business plays the leading role. C New Curtin University-led research has uncovered what may be the oldest direct. evidence of ancient hot water activity on Mars, showing the planet may have been habitable at some point in its past. The study analyzed a 4.45 billion-year-old zircon (锆石) grain from the famous Martian meteorite (陨石) NWA7034, also known as Black Beauty, and found geochemical “fingerprints” of water-rich liquids. Study co-author Dr Aaron Cavosie from Curtin’s School of Earth and Planetary Sciences said the discovery opened up new approaches for understanding ancient Martian overheated-liquid systems associated with magmatism (岩浆), as well as the planet’s past habitability. “We used nano-scale (纳米级) geochemistry to detect elemental evidence of hot water on Mars 4.45 billion years ago,” Dr Cavosie said. “Overheated-liquid systems were essential for the development of life on Earth and our findings suggest Mars also had water, a key factor for habitable environments, during the earliest history of surface formation.” Through nano-scale imaging, the team identified element patterns in this unique zircon, including iron, aluminum, yttrium and sodium. These elements were added as the zircon formed4.45 billion years ago, suggesting water was present during early Martian magmatic activity. Dr Cavosie said the research showed that even though Mars’ surface suffered massive meteorite strikes that caused major surface change, water was present during the early Pre-Noachian period, prior to about 4.1 billion years ago. “A 2022 Curtin study of the same zircon grain found it had been ‘shocked’ by a meteorite strike, marking it as the first and only known shocked zircon from Mars,” Dr Cavosie said. “This new study takes us a step further in understanding early Mars, by way of identifying tell-tale signs of water-rich liquids from when the grain formed, providing geochemical markers of water in the oldest known Martian surface.” 8 How does the author mainly present the research findings in the text? A. By comparing Mars with Earth. B. By giving examples and explanations. C. By quoting the words of the researchers. D. By listing a series of scientific experiments. 9. What did the nano-scale imaging find in the zircon? A. Ancient life forms. B. Hot water’s location. C. Mars’ formation time. D. Specific element patterns. 10. What can we learn about Mars from the research? A. Its surface has never changed. B. It has always been uninhabitable. C It might have been life-friendly early. D.

D As we age, our cognitive and motor (运动) functions worsen, which in turn affects our independence and overall quality of life. To improve or even remove this condition, research has given rise to many promising technologies. Among these is non-invasive (无创的) brain stimulation: a term covering a set of techniques that can affect brain functions non-invasively from the outside, without the need for surgery. One such promising technique, in particular, is anodal transcranial direct current stimulation (atDCS). Now, scientists have identified an important factor affecting an individual’s responsiveness to atDCS. The team looked at how native learning abilities determine the effect of brain stimulation applied while learning a motor task. Their findings suggest that individuals with less efficient learning mechanisms benefit more from stimulation, while those with optimal (最优的) learning strategies might experience negative effects. The researchers employed 40 participants: 20 middle-aged adults (50 — 65 years old) and 20 older adults (over 65). Each group was further divided into those receiving active atDCS and those receiving placebo (安慰剂) stimulation. Over ten days, participants practiced a finger-tapping task designed to study motor list learning at home while receiving atDCS. The task involved copying a numerical list using a keyboard, trying to be as fast and as accurate as possible. The team then used a machine-learning model to classify participants as either “optimal” or “sub-optimal” learners, based on their first performance. The study found that sub-optimal learners, who were seemingly less efficient at completing the task at the early stages of learning, experienced a quick accuracy improvement while performing the task when receiving atDCS. This effect was not limited to people of a certain age, with sub-optimal learners being found among younger individuals as well. In contrast, participants with optimal learning strategies, regardless of age, even showed a negative tendency in performance when receiving atDCS. This difference suggests that brain stimulation is more beneficial for individuals who firstly struggle with motor tasks. As such, atDCS seems to possess a restorative rather than a strengthening quality, with important significance for recovery. 12. What is atDCS? A. A technique only for older adults. B. A way to transfer something into the brain. C. A non-invasive brain stimulation technique. D. A surgical method to improve cognitive functions. 13. What can we conclude from the study about atDCS? A. It is only useful for older adults in improving motor tasks. B. It has different effects on people with different learning strategies. C. It has no significant effects on the performance of any participants D. It has a positive effect on the participants who are good at logical thinking. 14. What’s the main idea of paragraph 4? A. The result of the experiment on different age groups. B. The way to classify participants as different learners. C. The importance of the finger-tapping task in the study. D. The introduction of the participants and the experimental process. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. The Influence of Learning Abilities on the Effect of atDCS B. The Importance of Motor Tasks in Cognitive Improvement C. The Development of Non-invasive Brain Stimulation Technologies D. A Comparative Study of Motor Task Completion in Different Age Groups 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。 The holidays are upon us, and as the end of the year draws ever closer, millions of people will visit friends and relatives. ___16___, especially if your guests don’t know how to read body language and refuse to leave.

At first, I thought she really thought I was useless and didn’t like me. But now I realize that she was just too busy and not very good at showing her love for her children in the limited time she had, and I was guessing all the time. Ever since I could remember, I’ve tried to please her and get her attention, but nothing was ever good enough. After I entered adolescence (青春期), I found the gap between us grew even wider. I thought if I did my best in every aspect, our relationship would improve. Knowing she cared about my grades, I always wanted to be at the top of my class, to be the best. She would also push me to maintain my figure. One day, she scolded me for eating a chocolate bar, and I thought maybe she worried I would become a fat girl. When I began starving myself, I just wanted to be thin enough to get her approval. I wanted to feel beautiful again, but I also hoped it would be a punishment to my mom. She would see how thin I was and regret not paying attention to me. After two months of starving, I realized my mom wasn’t going to complain about my rapid weight loss. In fact, she seemed not to notice my changes at all. She was busy every day. Once, when she came home from work and saw me, she frowned but said nothing. I guessed she didn’t like how sick and thin I looked. Then I got angry. I started eating a lot. I never ate healthy food, just any snacks I could find. Whenever I felt down or felt myself slipping into depression, I would grab a box of ice cream. It seemed like food could ease my anxiety from not getting love. By the end of the semester, not only had my body changed shape, but my grades also dropped sharply. 注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 It wasn’t until one day that my mom finally noticed my changes. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mom decided to change. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
