Instead of just being places for books, they have become community centres. Lea Rosell is the director of the Lewes Public Library in the state of Delaware. The library usually holds a lot of events to draw visitors’ attention. This month, the library held events like movie showings, poetry writing workshops and Spanish-language discussions. The most popular activity was the introduction of several animals to its nature centre. The library also has a programme to mail a free book to families with young children each month. The goal is to provide children with a large book collection in their home without having to pay for it themselves. A public library in Maryland has a basketball court steps away. Teenagers who use the basketball court will step into the library. There are also special spaces in the library for children to do their homework. The library also holds job fairs. People who cannot afford to buy their own laptop computers can borrow one from the library. Along with the changes, libraries can be very lively places. Thus, more and more visitors will enter them. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Four Best Sci-fi Movies to Stream on Max Avatar: The Way of Water (2022) Set roughly a decade after the first movie, this one sees Jake Sully living among the N’avi with children of his own when he discovers that humanity has returned to Pandora and decides to go into hiding. While there’s certainly plenty to admire in the plotting of The Way of Water, the most amazing thing about the movie is the visual splendor on display. Dune (2021) Dune is one of the all-time classic novels in science fiction literature, therefore this adaptation starring Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, and Zendaya Coleman was one of the most anticipated films of 2021. The story examines classic sci-fi topics like family, politics, and human purpose by using the struggle for intergalactic (星系间) resources as the background. Her (2013) In an era when Her is about to stop being science fiction, this movie about a tender romance between a lonely man and an AI companion feels more prescient (预知的) than ever. Thanks to brilliant performances from both Scarlett Johansson and Joaquin Phoenix, Her is a sensitive movie about the very real ways that AI can help us feel less lonely and how imperfect that solution is when what most people really desire is a connection to another human being. Ex Machina (2015) Another AI movie, Ex Machina is exciting, thanks chiefly to the sharp writing on display from its writer and director, Alex Garland. The movie tells the story of a computer programmer who is called to his CEO’s home to test out a new form of artificial intelligence he has been working on. The tests consist of just a series of conversations between them, but the movie’s brilliance comes from Alicia Vikander’s performance as Ava the AI. 21. What is the most outstanding feature of the movie Avatar: The Way of Water? A. The deep themes. B. The complex plot. C. The wonderful visual impact. D. The brilliant performances. 22. What is the background of the story in Dune? A. The fight for intergalactic resources. B. The battle between good and evil. C. The exploration of a new universe. D. The search for a lost planet. 23. Who played Ava in the movie directed by Alex Garland? A. Jake Sully. B. Scarlett Johansson C. Zendaya Coleman. D. Alicia Vikander. 【答案】21. C 22. A 23. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了可在Max平台上观看的四部最佳科幻电影，包括《阿凡达：水之道》《沙丘》《她》和《机械姬》，分别阐述了它们的故事亮点与特色。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Avatar: The Way of Water (2022)部分中“While there’s certainly plenty to admire in the plotting of The Way of Water, the most amazing thing about the movie is the visual splendor on display.(虽然《阿凡达：水之道》的情节确实有很多值得赞赏之处，但这部电影最令人惊叹的是其展示出的视觉盛宴。)”可知，《阿凡达：水之道》最突出的特点是精彩的视觉冲击。故选C项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Dune (2021)部分中“The story examines classic sci-fi topics like family, politics, and human purpose by using the struggle for intergalactic (星系间) resources as the background.(这个故事以争夺星系间资源为背景，探讨了家庭、政治和人类目标等经典科幻主题。)”可知，《沙丘》故事的背景是对星系间资源的争夺。故选A项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ex Machina (2015)部分中“The movie’s brilliance comes from Alicia Vikander’s performance as Ava the AI.(这部电影的精彩之处来自艾丽西亚・维坎德饰演的人工智能艾娃的表演。)”可知，在亚历克斯・加兰导演的电影中，艾丽西亚・维坎德饰演了艾娃。故选D项。 B By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree. Despite the impressive achievements, Tillman remembers turning to her mother and saying, “I think I want to pursue a doctorate degree.” Her mother, Jimalita Tillman, was surprised. Dorothy was a year into launching a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) camp startup, and she was looking for funding for the organization. She was busy. But after Dorothy explained that her mission was to positively impact young people when it came to their mental health, Jimalita understood and lent her support. Jimalita said she was proud of her daughter. “I knew what it took for her to go through that. She had to sacrifice (牺牲) a lot. She emerged as a leader without fear, showing them how to tackle online schooling.” From a young age, Dorothy has been outstanding in her academic pursuits. By age 7, she was already doing high school work. At that point, she started to take college level module (模拟) tests and apply the credits toward higher education. “It was always mentally difficult to handle, especially at such a young age. When you get out of college, you’re thinking, ‘what do I do next?’ Now I am able to sit in the comfortability of being a teenager and being OK with the fact that I don’t have to figure out what comes next,” Dorothy said. She studied integrated behavioural health at Arizona State University. For her dissertation (论文), she explored the stigma (耻辱) that prevents university students from getting mental health treatment. In addition to her school work, Dorothy also devotes her time to running the Dorothy Jeanius STEAM Leadership Institute, which inspires hundreds of underserved young people in Chicago, as well as abroad in countries like Ghana and South Africa, to pursue STEAM careers. The programme includes guest speakers and open conversations around each of the five areas of STEAM. 24. What did Dorothy Jean Tillman achieve by the age of 14? A. She raised fund for her organization. B. She started a STEAM camp startup. C. She greatly influenced the young. D. She acquired academic success. 25. What was Jimalita Tillman’s attitude towards her daughter’s plan? A. She was not surprised and took it for granted. B. She was in favour of her daughter’s decision C. She thought the decision was unnecessary. D. She was worried about her daughter’s workload. 26. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. Running a startup is challenging. B. Young people favour online schooling. C. The STEAM education is needed for all people. D. What Dorothy does is really encouraging. 27. Which of the following can best describe Dorothy? A. Ambitious and determined. B. Brave and noble-minded. C. Confident and sensitive. D. Careful and kind-hearted. 【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述的是14 岁的Dorothy Jean Tillman学术成就斐然，还决心攻读博士学位，她运营STEAM领导力学院，在学术与公益方面都展现出非凡抱负与决心 。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree.(到 14 岁时，Dorothy Jean Tillman已经获得了副学士学位、学士学位和硕士学位。)”可知，Dorothy Jean Tillman在14岁时取得了学术上的成功。故选D项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“After Dorothy explained that her mission was to positively impact young people when it came to their mental health, Jimalita understood and lent her support.(在Dorothy解释说她的使命是在心理健康方面对年轻人产生积极影响后，Jimalita理解并给予了支持。)”可知，Jimalita支持女儿的决定。故选B项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“For her dissertation, she explored the stigma that prevents university students from getting mental health treatment.(在她的论文中，她探讨了阻碍大学生获得心理健康治疗的耻辱感。)”以及最后一段“Dorothy also devotes her time to running the Dorothy Jeanius STEAM Leadership Institute, which inspires hundreds of underserved young people in Chicago, as well as abroad in countries like Ghana and South Africa, to pursue STEAM careers.(多萝西还致力于运营Dorothy Jeanius STEAM领导力学院，该学院激励了芝加哥以及加纳和南非等国外数百名服务不足的年轻人从事STEAM职业。)”可知， Dorothy所做的事情对年轻人很有激励作用。故选D项。 27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Despite the impressive achievements, Tillman remembers turning to her mother and saying, ‘I think I want to pursue a doctorate degree.’(尽管取得了令人瞩目的成就，蒂尔曼记得她曾转向母亲说：‘我想我想攻读博士学位。’)”可知，Dorothy很有抱负；再根据第二段“Dorothy was a year into launching a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) camp startup, and she was looking for funding for the organization.(Dorothy已经创办了一个科学、技术、工程、艺术和数学（STEAM）营地初创公司一年了，并且她正在为这个组织寻找资金。)”以及她在学术和运营组织上的坚持可知，Dorothy很有决心。所以Dorothy是有抱负且有决心的。故选A项。 C Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading. Later, when children reach school age, a common technique for teaching the alphabet (字母表) is using hands-on handling, such as forming letters out of clay. But as these students get older, the role of touch reduces, which is bad for the students. Today’s reading assignments are heavily digital, and use of computer keyboards for writing shows no sign of decreasing, especially given the appeal of AI tools for editing and composing. I’m a linguist (语言学家) who investigates the differences between print and digital reading and how writing supports thinking. My colleague Anne Mangen and I asked more than 500 secondary students at an international school in Amsterdam about their experiences when reading print versus digital texts. Separately, I surveyed 100 university students and young adults in the US and Europe on their likes and dislikes about handwriting versus typing. Together, their responses demonstrate that teenagers and young adults continue to value touch in their encounters with the written word. The research offers important lessons for educators and parents. In the studies, students wrote enthusiastically about touch when asked for the one thing they liked most about reading in print or writing by hand. On a physical level, the feeling of holding a book or writing instrument in their hands mattered to students. These are some of their observations: “You actually feel like you are reading because the book is in your hands,” and “I like feeling the paper and pen under my hands, being able to physically form words.” What students say about the importance of touch mirrors what researchers have found: Touch is an effective way to build early reading and writing skills, as well as to support how more developed readers and writers interact with the written word. Psychologists and reading specialists continue to report higher comprehension in children and young adults when reading in print versus digitally, for both academic and leisure reading. 28. Why did the author mention Pat the Bunny in the first paragraph? A. To call on readers to read the book. B. To introduce a classic children’s book. C. To compare the book with digital reading. D. To show the value of touch in early reading experiences. 29. What is a common technique for teaching the alphabet to school-age children? A. Reading digital texts. B. Forming letters out of clay. C. Using computer keyboards. D. Using touch-and-feel books. 30. What’s Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Shortcomings of the studies. B. The future of the studies. C. The discoveries of the studies. D. Difficulties met in the studies. 31. Where can we read the text? A. In a book review. B. In a guidebook. C. In a science magazine. D. In a dictionary. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了触摸在阅读和写作中的重要性，包括早期教育、学生的感受和研究发现等 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading. (Pat the Bunny是1940年的经典触觉书，至今仍在印刷中，它展示了触摸在帮助婴儿和幼儿进入阅读世界中的价值。)”可知，作者在第一段介绍这本书是为了展示触摸在早期阅读体验中的价值。故选D项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Later, when children reach school age, a common technique for teaching the alphabet (字母表) is using hands-on handling, such as forming letters out of clay. (后来，当孩子们到了上学的年龄，一种常见的教学方法是使用动手操作，比如用粘土捏字母。)”可知，向学龄儿童教授字母表的常用方法是用粘土捏字母。故选B项。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“In the studies, students wrote enthusiastically about touch when asked for the one thing they liked most about reading in print or writing by hand. On a physical level, the feeling of holding a book or writing instrument in their hands mattered to students. These are some of their observations: “You actually feel like you are reading because the book is in your hands,” and “I like feeling the paper and pen under my hands, being able to physically form words.” (在研究中，当被问及他们最喜欢纸质阅读或手写的一件事时，学生们热情地写下了触摸。在物理层面上，拿着一本书或书写工具的感觉对学生来说很重要。以下是他们的一些观察结果：“你实际上觉得你正在阅读，因为书就在你的手中，”和“我喜欢感觉纸和笔在我的手中，能够物理地形成单词。)”可知，本段主要讲述了这些研究的发现。故选C项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading. (Pat the Bunny是1940年的经典触觉书，至今仍在印刷中，它展示了触摸在帮助婴儿和幼儿进入阅读世界中的价值。)”以及根据最后一段“What students say about the importance of touch mirrors what researchers have found: Touch is an effective way to build early reading and writing skills, as well as to support how more developed readers and writers interact with the written word. (学生们所说的触摸的重要性反映了研究人员的发现：触摸是建立早期阅读和写作技能的有效方法，同时也支持更成熟的读者和作家如何与书面文字互动。)”可知，文章主要介绍了触摸在阅读和写作中的重要性，包括早期教育、学生的感受和研究发现等。所以短文来自科学杂志。故选C项。 D In a world where our digital devices have become extensions of ourselves, it’s no surprise that we often immerse (沉浸) ourselves in screens rather than engage with the world and people around us. But amidst this digital deluge (涌现的事物), something vital is being lost: the art of genuine human connection. These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions. Small talk often receives criticism for being empty or insignificant. Rarely does someone express a fondness for it, let alone find fulfillment in it. However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout — it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection. Even one-off exchanges with someone at the grocery store or at the bus stop offer opportunities for connection. But our aversion (厌恶) to small talk is significant. We may convince ourselves that we’re not good at it or that it’s unnecessary, but that’s simply an excuse. Yes, of course, social anxiety is real, but the only way to overcome the fears is through practice, gaining confidence by slowly taking risks, and actively engaging in conversations. So, how can we embrace small talk and harness its power? Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level. Like any skill, small talk requires practice. Start small by initiating conversations with strangers or acquaintances and gradually work your way up to deeper connections. With each interaction, you’ll gain confidence and build the skills necessary for meaningful conversations. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but with practice, we can regain the richness of human interaction and cultivate relationships that truly nourish (滋养) the soul, build confidence, and reclaim the internal real estate that is overrun with anxious thoughts. 32. Why do people often prefer to engage with digital devices rather than the real world? A. They are afraid of genuine relationships. B. They find it more convenient to do so. C. They want to avoid face-to-face communication. D. They have little time to engage with others. 33. What does the author think of small talk? A. It takes a lot of meaningful time. B. It is an unnecessary and hard skill. C. It is difficult to master for most people. D. It plays a crucial role in social interactions. 34. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Employ. B. Challenge. C. Overlook. D. Discover. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How to Overcome Social Anxiety B. The Challenges of Modern Social Life C. The Power of Small Talk in Social Life D. Digital Devices and Human Connection 【答案】32. B 33. D 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了闲聊在社交生活中的重要性和作用。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions.(这些设备提供了一个方便的逃避无聊或不适的方式，让我们避免尴尬的社交场合或困难的情绪)”可知，们更喜欢与数字设备互动，而不是真实的世界，是因为他们觉得这样做更方便。故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions.(然而，闲聊在社交互动中非常重要)”可知，作者认为闲聊在社交互动中起着至关重要的作用。故选D项。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level.(首先要注意你周围的环境，并与周围的人交往。无论是评论天气还是聊一聊共同的经历，闲聊都提供了一个与他人建立基本联系的机会)”可知，下文在说如何通过关注周围环境并与周围的人互动来利用闲聊的力量。所以划线词意为“利用”。与A选项“Employ（雇用；利用）”同义。故选A项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是第三段“However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout-it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection(然而，闲聊在社交互动中非常重要。把它想象成锻炼前的热身——它帮助我们轻松地进入更深层次的对话，建立信任和理解的基础。它为评估交流是否有可能培养友谊或加深联系奠定了基础)”可知，短文讨论了闲聊在社交生活中的力量。所以短文的最佳标题为“闲聊在社交生活中的力量”。故选C项。 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。 At its most basic level, laughter affects our physical body. It enables us to take in more oxygenated air and stimulate our lungs. ____36____ This leads to several benefits. Increases Heart Health As we laugh at funny events, our cardiac (心脏的) health improves. Laughter provides this benefit by increasing our heart rate and lowering our blood pressure. ____37____ One study found that people who rarely or never laughed were 1.21 times more likely to have heart disease than those who laughed daily. This helps reinforce (加强) the benefits of humour on heart health. Reduces Physical Pain Let’s say we have a severe headache but are watching an extremely funny show. As we watch and laugh, we may become at least somewhat distracted (使分心) from the headache and discomfort. ____38____ Established mechanisms are operating internally to enhance our ability to resist pain. Naturally occurring hormones called endorphins, for example, get to work. Because we’re laughing up a storm, our body produces these natural painkillers. ____39____ Laughing offers another physical benefit: it can help us sleep better. In one small-scale study, residents at a long-term care hospital engaged in 40-minute laughter therapy sessions twice a week for four weeks. Their sleep quality improved during this time, as did their feelings of depression. Combining laughter with yoga, called laughing yoga, has also been found to improve sleep quality and help us fall asleep faster. This form of yoga involves movements that make us want to laugh. Boosts Immunity (免疫力) Overall, extensive laughter supports the immune system, which makes us more resistant to disease. By laughing, we increase antibody-producing cells and enhance the effectiveness of T cells in our body. ____40____ Physicians and mental health professionals can use laughter to help patients achieve positive health outcomes. A. Improves sleep. B. Gets good relationships. C. You may find it hard to stay humorous. D. This is much like how our body responds to exercise. E.

As we watch and laugh, we may become at least somewhat distracted from the headache and discomfort.(假设我们头痛得厉害，但正在看一场非常有趣的节目。当我们观看并大笑时，我们可能至少会从头痛和不适中稍微分心)”可知，这里说明看有趣节目大笑时会分心；下文“Established mechanisms are operating internally to enhance our ability to resist pain.(体内有既定的机制在运行，以增强我们抵抗疼痛的能力)”则表明还有其他因素减轻疼痛，F选项But the distraction alone isn’t what reduces our pain perception.(但仅仅分心并不能减轻我们对疼痛的感知)符合语境，but表转折，引出下文对减轻疼痛真正原因的阐述。故选F项。 【39题详解】 由下文“Laughing offers another physical benefit: it can help us sleep better.(笑提供了另一个身体上的好处：它可以帮助我们睡得更好)”可知，此段围绕笑能改善睡眠展开。A选项Improves sleep.(改善睡眠)作为小标题，准确概括了该段内容。故选A项。 【40题详解】 由上文“By laughing, we increase antibody - producing cells and enhance the effectiveness of T cells in our body.(通过笑，我们增加了产生抗体的细胞，并增强了我们体内 T 细胞的效力)”可知，这里说明了笑对免疫系统的积极影响。E选项These tiny things act like a defense army to fight illness.(这些微小的东西就像一支抵御疾病的防御部队)符合语境，其中These tiny things指代上文的antibody-producing cells和T cells，进一步阐述它们对抵抗疾病的作用。故选E项。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In the summer of 2023, my boyfriend Gabe Rosescu and I were on a road trip from Saskatchewan to British Columbia when our car was hit by a mudslide.

I was about to graduate from high school and entered a completely new environment to attend university soon. I felt very sad, when thinking about the fact that I would be separated from my only friend Lily who was as lonely as me. My parents held a graduation party for me. I sat at my party admiring my gifts. The usual and beloved books were scattered (散开) around my feet, silently showing the wealth of wisdom they wished to share. A small pile of personal checks lay nearby. Laundry items, desk supplies all well-intentioned and well-received. They would demonstrate their givers’ thoughtfulness over and over during my college career. But one gift struck me as strange. I frowned when I opened it. Medicine? A small packet of pills, creams, ointments (药膏) and lozenges (含片) lay within the wrappings. Who would give that as a gift? “I don’t know, but you’ll need that once you’re at school,” Mum pointed out. “You won’t have to chase down the campus nurse for every cough.” I thought it was a good point. Not long after, in August, I packed my life into a borrowed truck and slipped the bag of medicine in. I barely thought about it once I reached campus, where I was caught in the hurry of unpacking, book-buying and scheduling. When “anybody have a bandage (绷带)?” rang out in the dormitory hall that day, I remembered my little medicinal package. As I dug out the kit, we began to chat. Soon, many of the other girls in the dorms heard of my little kit and paid me a visit. One had bug bites-anti-itch cream popped, out of my supply. The roommate with the headache nearly kissed my hands when I passed her simple painkillers. As cold season approached, many girls needed cough drops. Each girl stayed to chat for a few moments. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The little gift now led me towards new friendships. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I knew exactly what gift I would give Lily at her birthday party. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The little gift now led me towards new friendships. As it broke fevers, it also broke the ice, allowing me to meet and become friends with many classmates. It became a symbol of my willingness to help. It was passed around like a shared treasure, helping to ease minor pain and bringing comfort to those who needed it. Each time I handed out a bandage or a pill, I felt a connection growing with my dorm mates. One day, Lily invited me to her birthday party. I knew exactly what gift I would give Lily at her birthday party. I bought a small packet for her. Inside were the same pills, creams, ointments, and lozenges that had become my constant companions during my first few weeks at college. At the party, I handed Lily the packet with a smile. “Here, this is for you,” I said. “You might find it useful at some point.” Her eyes widened in surprise and then filled with warmth. “Oh, Emily, this is so sweet!” she exclaimed. Lily hugged me tightly. “Thank you so much,” she whispered. “This means more to me than you could ever know.” 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者回忆起高中毕业时收到一份特别礼物——一个急救包，里面有各种药品和医疗用品，起初觉得奇怪，但后来在大学生活中意识到这份礼物的实用价值。当宿舍里有人手臂被烧伤需要绷带时，急救包派上了用场，体现了礼物中不显眼的体贴。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“这个小礼物现在把我引向了新的友谊”可知，第一段可描写作者交了一些好朋友并受到了莉莉的生日邀请。 ②由第二段首句内容“我很清楚要在莉莉的生日派对上送她什么礼物”可知，第二段可描写作者送了一个急救包给莉莉以及莉莉的感谢。 2.续写线索：打破僵局——认识了许多同学并成为了朋友——受到邀请——送急救包——莉莉很感谢作者 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①允许：allow /permit ②帮助：help/assist ③减轻：ease /relieve ④拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment ②甜蜜的：sweet/ candied 【点睛】[高分句型1] Each time I handed out a bandage or a pill, I felt a connection growing with my dorm mates.

While there’s certainly plenty to admire in the plotting of The Way of Water, the most amazing thing about the movie is the visual splendor on display. Dune (2021) Dune is one of the all-time classic novels in science fiction literature, therefore this adaptation starring Timothee Chalamet, Oscar Isaac, and Zendaya Coleman was one of the most anticipated films of 2021. The story examines classic sci-fi topics like family, politics, and human purpose by using the struggle for intergalactic (星系间) resources as the background. Her (2013) In an era when Her is about to stop being science fiction, this movie about a tender romance between a lonely man and an AI companion feels more prescient (预知的) than ever. Thanks to brilliant performances from both Scarlett Johansson and Joaquin Phoenix, Her is a sensitive movie about the very real ways that AI can help us feel less lonely and how imperfect that solution is when what most people really desire is a connection to another human being. Ex Machina (2015) Another AI movie, Ex Machina is exciting, thanks chiefly to the sharp writing on display from its writer and director, Alex Garland. The movie tells the story of a computer programmer who is called to his CEO’s home to test out a new form of artificial intelligence he has been working on. The tests consist of just a series of conversations between them, but the movie’s brilliance comes from Alicia Vikander’s performance as Ava the AI. 21 What is the most outstanding feature of the movie Avatar: The Way of Water? A. The deep themes. B. The complex plot. C. The wonderful visual impact. D. The brilliant performances. 22. What is the background of the story in Dune? A. The fight for intergalactic resources. B. The battle between good and evil. C. The exploration of a new universe. D. The search for a lost planet. 23. Who played Ava in the movie directed by Alex Garland? A. Jake Sully. B. Scarlett Johansson C. Zendaya Coleman. D. Alicia Vikander. B By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree. Despite the impressive achievements, Tillman remembers turning to her mother and saying, “I think I want to pursue a doctorate degree.” Her mother, Jimalita Tillman, was surprised. Dorothy was a year into launching a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) camp startup, and she was looking for funding for the organization. She was busy. But after Dorothy explained that her mission was to positively impact young people when it came to their mental health, Jimalita understood and lent her support. Jimalita said she was proud of her daughter. “I knew what it took for her to go through that. She had to sacrifice (牺牲) a lot. She emerged as a leader without fear, showing them how to tackle online schooling.” From a young age, Dorothy has been outstanding in her academic pursuits. By age 7, she was already doing high school work. At that point, she started to take college level module (模拟) tests and apply the credits toward higher education. “It was always mentally difficult to handle, especially at such a young age. When you get out of college, you’re thinking, ‘what do I do next?’ Now I am able to sit in the comfortability of being a teenager and being OK with the fact that I don’t have to figure out what comes next,” Dorothy said. She studied integrated behavioural health at Arizona State University. For her dissertation (论文), she explored the stigma (耻辱) that prevents university students from getting mental health treatment. In addition to her school work, Dorothy also devotes her time to running the Dorothy Jeanius STEAM Leadership Institute, which inspires hundreds of underserved young people in Chicago, as well as abroad in countries like Ghana and South Africa, to pursue STEAM careers. The programme includes guest speakers and open conversations around each of the five areas of STEAM. 24. What did Dorothy Jean Tillman achieve by the age of 14? A. She raised fund for her organization. B. She started a STEAM camp startup. C. She greatly influenced the young. D. She acquired academic success. 25. What was Jimalita Tillman’s attitude towards her daughter’s plan? A. She was not surprised and took it for granted. B. She was in favour of her daughter’s decision C. She thought the decision was unnecessary. D. She was worried about her daughter’s workload. 26. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs? A. Running a startup is challenging. B. Young people favour online schooling. C. The STEAM education is needed for all people. D. What Dorothy does is really encouraging. 27. Which of the following can best describe Dorothy? A. Ambitious and determined. B. Brave and noble-minded. C. Confident and sensitive. D. Careful and kind-hearted. C Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading. Later, when children reach school age, a common technique for teaching the alphabet (字母表) is using hands-on handling, such as forming letters out of clay. But as these students get older, the role of touch reduces, which is bad for the students. Today’s reading assignments are heavily digital, and use of computer keyboards for writing shows no sign of decreasing, especially given the appeal of AI tools for editing and composing. I’m a linguist (语言学家) who investigates the differences between print and digital reading and how writing supports thinking. My colleague Anne Mangen and I asked more than 500 secondary students at an international school in Amsterdam about their experiences when reading print versus digital texts. Separately, I surveyed 100 university students and young adults in the US and Europe on their likes and dislikes about handwriting versus typing. Together, their responses demonstrate that teenagers and young adults continue to value touch in their encounters with the written word. The research offers important lessons for educators and parents. In the studies, students wrote enthusiastically about touch when asked for the one thing they liked most about reading in print or writing by hand. On a physical level, the feeling of holding a book or writing instrument in their hands mattered to students. These are some of their observations: “You actually feel like you are reading because the book is in your hands,” and “I like feeling the paper and pen under my hands, being able to physically form words.” What students say about the importance of touch mirrors what researchers have found: Touch is an effective way to build early reading and writing skills, as well as to support how more developed readers and writers interact with the written word. Psychologists and reading specialists continue to report higher comprehension in children and young adults when reading in print versus digitally, for both academic and leisure reading. 28. Why did the author mention Pat the Bunny in the first paragraph? A. To call on readers to read the book. B. To introduce a classic children’s book. C. To compare the book with digital reading. D. To show the value of touch in early reading experiences. 29. What is a common technique for teaching the alphabet to school-age children? A. Reading digital texts. B. Forming letters out of clay. C. Using computer keyboards. D. Using touch-and-feel books. 30. What’s Paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Shortcomings of the studies. B. The future of the studies. C. The discoveries of the studies. D. Difficulties met in the studies. 31. Where can we read the text? A. In a book review. B. In a guidebook. C. In a science magazine. D. In a dictionary. D In a world where our digital devices have become extensions of ourselves, it’s no surprise that we often immerse (沉浸) ourselves in screens rather than engage with the world and people around us. But amidst this digital deluge (涌现的事物), something vital is being lost: the art of genuine human connection. These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions. Small talk often receives criticism for being empty or insignificant. Rarely does someone express a fondness for it, let alone find fulfillment in it. However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout — it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection. Even one-off exchanges with someone at the grocery store or at the bus stop offer opportunities for connection. But our aversion (厌恶) to small talk is significant. We may convince ourselves that we’re not good at it or that it’s unnecessary, but that’s simply an excuse. Yes, of course, social anxiety is real, but the only way to overcome the fears is through practice, gaining confidence by slowly taking risks, and actively engaging in conversations. So, how can we embrace small talk and harness its power? Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level. Like any skill, small talk requires practice. Start small by initiating conversations with strangers or acquaintances and gradually work your way up to deeper connections. With each interaction, you’ll gain confidence and build the skills necessary for meaningful conversations. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but with practice, we can regain the richness of human interaction and cultivate relationships that truly nourish (滋养) the soul, build confidence, and reclaim the internal real estate that is overrun with anxious thoughts. 32. Why do people often prefer to engage with digital devices rather than the real world? A. They are afraid of genuine relationships. B. They find it more convenient to do so. C. They want to avoid face-to-face communication. D. They have little time to engage with others. 33. What does the author think of small talk? A. It takes a lot of meaningful time. B. It is an unnecessary and hard skill. C. It is difficult to master for most people. D. It plays a crucial role in social interactions. 34. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Employ. B. Challenge. C. Overlook. D. Discover. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. How to Overcome Social Anxiety B. The Challenges of Modern Social Life C. The Power of Small Talk in Social Life D.

It enables us to take in more oxygenated air and stimulate our lungs. ____36____ This leads to several benefits. Increases Heart Health As we laugh at funny events, our cardiac (心脏的) health improves. Laughter provides this benefit by increasing our heart rate and lowering our blood pressure. ____37____ One study found that people who rarely or never laughed were 1.21 times more likely to have heart disease than those who laughed daily. This helps reinforce (加强) the benefits of humour on heart health. Reduces Physical Pain Let’s say we have a severe headache but are watching an extremely funny show. As we watch and laugh, we may become at least somewhat distracted (使分心) from the headache and discomfort. ____38____ Established mechanisms are operating internally to enhance our ability to resist pain. Naturally occurring hormones called endorphins, for example, get to work. Because we’re laughing up a storm, our body produces these natural painkillers. ____39____ Laughing offers another physical benefit: it can help us sleep better. In one small-scale study, residents at a long-term care hospital engaged in 40-minute laughter therapy sessions twice a week for four weeks. Their sleep quality improved during this time, as did their feelings of depression. Combining laughter with yoga, called laughing yoga, has also been found to improve sleep quality and help us fall asleep faster. This form of yoga involves movements that make us want to laugh. Boosts Immunity (免疫力) Overall, extensive laughter supports the immune system, which makes us more resistant to disease. By laughing, we increase antibody-producing cells and enhance the effectiveness of T cells in our body. ____40____ Physicians and mental health professionals can use laughter to help patients achieve positive health outcomes. A. Improves sleep. B. Gets good relationships. C. You may find it hard to stay humorous. D. This is much like how our body responds to exercise. E. These tiny things act like a defense army to fight illness F. But the distraction alone isn’t what reduces our pain perception. G. Moments of loud laughter also relieve tension in our muscles. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 In the summer of 2023, my boyfriend Gabe Rosescu and I were on a road trip from Saskatchewan to British Columbia when our car was hit by a mudslide.

I was about to graduate from high school and entered a completely new environment to attend university soon. I felt very sad, when thinking about the fact that I would be separated from my only friend Lily who was as lonely as me. My parents held a graduation party for me. I sat at my party admiring my gifts. The usual and beloved books were scattered (散开) around my feet, silently showing the wealth of wisdom they wished to share. A small pile of personal checks lay nearby. Laundry items, desk supplies all well-intentioned and well-received. They would demonstrate their givers’ thoughtfulness over and over during my college career. But one gift struck me as strange. I frowned when I opened it. Medicine? A small packet of pills, creams, ointments (药膏) and lozenges (含片) lay within the wrappings. Who would give that as a gift? “I don’t know, but you’ll need that once you’re at school,” Mum pointed out. “You won’t have to chase down the campus nurse for every cough.” I thought it was a good point. Not long after, in August, I packed my life into a borrowed truck and slipped the bag of medicine in. I barely thought about it once I reached campus, where I was caught in the hurry of unpacking, book-buying and scheduling. When “anybody have a bandage (绷带)?” rang out in the dormitory hall that day, I remembered my little medicinal package. As I dug out the kit, we began to chat. Soon, many of the other girls in the dorms heard of my little kit and paid me a visit. One had bug bites-anti-itch cream popped, out of my supply. The roommate with the headache nearly kissed my hands when I passed her simple painkillers. As cold season approached, many girls needed cough drops. Each girl stayed to chat for a few moments. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The little gift now led me towards new friendships. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I knew exactly what gift I would give Lily at her birthday party. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$null
