Cux critic praised the film as a moving portrait of being trapped, writing that “few films better capture the mental state that results from being stuck in a room for an extended period of time.” TV “Pachinko” (Aug. 23) Based on Min Jin Lee’s historical novel, this drama series follows four generations of a Korean family who immigrate to Japan through different timelines. The second season begins with family leader Kim Sunja trying to lead her family through the final months of World War II. Our critic described the show as a “beautiful and slow-moving journey" through history. Art “What It Becomes” (Aug. 24) The Whitney Museum of American Art in New York is highlighting new and rarely exhibited work from 11 artists — including David Hammons, Catherine Opie and Wendy RedStar — this show looks at the ways contemporary creators are expanding the boundaries of drawing, in content, medium and technique. Videogame “Black Myth: Wukong” (Aug. 20) This action RPG, inspired by the 16fh-century Chinese novel “Journey to the West”, puts players in the role of the book’s Monkey King, here called the Destined One, as they use a powerful staff to battle their way through Chinese mythology (神话). With stunning graphics and exciting gameplay, the game immerses players in a world full of legendary creatures and fierce enemies. 1. What is the highlight of “Rear Window”? A. The originality of a suspense thriller. B. The portrait of an important character. C. The life experience of a photojournalist. D. The account of a psychological condition. 2. What does “Pachinko” and “Black Myth: Wukong” have in common? A. Both explore historical events. B. Both are adaptations of literary works. C. Both are praised for their beautiful visuals. D. Both include elements of fantasy and mythology. 3. What type of writing is this passage? A. A review. B. A report. C. An editorial. D. An advertisement. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了电影《后窗》、电视剧《弹子球游戏》、艺术展览《它变成了什么》和电子游戏《黑神话：悟空》等四部不同类型作品的相关信息与评价。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据Film “Rear Window”部分中“Cux critic praised the film as a moving portrait of being trapped, writing that ‘few films better capture the mental state that results from being stuck in a room for an extended period of time.’ (影评人称赞这部电影是对被困状态的动人描绘，写道：‘很少有电影能更好地捕捉到长时间被困在一个房间里所产生的心理状态。’) ”可知，《后窗》的亮点在于对一种心理状态的描述。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据TV “Pachinko”部分中“Based on Min Jin Lee’s historical novel, this drama series follows four generations of a Korean family who immigrate to Japan through different timelines.(这部电视剧改编自李敏金的历史小说，讲述了一个韩国家庭四代人在不同时间线移民到日本的故事) ”和Videogame “Black Myth: Wukong”部分中“This action RPG, inspired by the 16th century Chinese novel ‘Journey to the West’, puts players in the role of the book’s Monkey King(这款动作角色扮演游戏的灵感来自16世纪的中国小说《西游记》，让玩家扮演书中的孙悟空) ”可知，《弹子球游戏》和《黑神话：悟空》的共同点是两者都是文学作品的改编。故选B项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，文章介绍了电影《后窗》、电视剧《弹子球游戏》、艺术展览《它变成了什么》和电子游戏《黑神话：悟空》等四部不同类型作品并进行了评价。如评价《后窗》时提到“Cux critic praised the film as a moving portrait of being trapped(影评人称赞这部电影是对被困状态的动人描绘) ”，评价《弹子球游戏》时说“Our critic described the show as a ‘beautiful and slow moving journey’ through history(我们的影评人将这部剧描述为一段穿越历史的“美丽而缓慢的旅程”) ”，由此可知，对作品的介绍和评价符合评论类文章的特点。所以这篇文章是一篇评论。故选A项。 B In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America’s beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut (首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. Critics quickly spoke out, calling her early performance a disappointment for the No. 1 overall pick. But the struggles didn’t last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever’s fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year’s total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark’s leadership that powered the team’s comeback. Against Seattle, Clark finished with 23 points, five rebounds and nine assists, but it’s her confidence that leaps out. The former Hawkeye has regained not just her shot, but her charisma (魅力) and control. On the court, almost all of the action is again flowing through her as she creates opportunities for others. Her vision — her ability to find teammates moving quickly up the court — remains impressively precise. By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women’s basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark’s play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. Though Paris gold was still won by the U.S., I agree with Staley: a chance to lift the sport was missed. Oh well. Clark will use the rejection for fuel, and Los Angeles 2028 awaits her. Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark’s comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league’s ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory — Clark is ready for even greater success. 4. What caused Clark’s poor performance at the start of her WNBA career? A. A stronger opponent. B. Pressure from critics. C. A shift of environment. D. Her decline in fitness. 5. What was the key to the Fever’s win over the Storm? A. Clark’s competence in leading. B. Clark’s adjustments in strategy. C. Fever’s enhancement in teamwork. D. Storm’s turnaround in performance. 6. What is Staley’s attitude to Clark? A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Unconcerned. D. Supportive. 7 Which of the following words best describe Clark? A. Adaptable and determined. B. Considerate and resourceful. C. Talented and patient. D. Creative and confident. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了Caitlin Clark在WNBA的首秀遭遇挫折后的逆袭之路。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第一段中“In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America’s beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut (首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. (2024年6月，备受美国人喜爱的大学篮球明星Caitlin Clark，在她的WNBA首秀中遭遇了残酷的现实考验。投篮失准、控球不稳，还要努力适应新球队，Clark显得力不从心，无法展现出这位远投高手曾经铸就辉煌的神奇球技。)”可知，她所处环境的转变，导致Clark在WNBA职业生涯开始时表现不佳。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“But the struggles didn’t last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever’s fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year’s total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark’s leadership that powered the team’s comeback. (但困境并未持续太久。到了周日，Clark带领Indiana Fever以92比75的悬殊比分战胜Seattle Storm，这是Fever在五场比赛中的第四场胜利。这一逆转使他们的战绩提升至13胜15负，超过了去年的总胜场数，在季后赛席位的争夺中占据了有利位置。虽然Kelsey Mitchell和Lexie Hull表现出色，但正是Clark的领导力推动了球队的逆袭。)”可知，Fever击败Storm的关键是Clark的领导能力。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第三段中“By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women’s basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark’s play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. (奥运会来临之际，就连女子篮球界的非官方女王Dawn Staley也承认，Clark的表现已经达到了美国队的标准。她认为，美国队没有征召Clark是错失了一个绝佳机会。)”可知，Staley认为Clark的表现已经达到了美国队的标准，并认为国家错过了让Clark参赛的大好机会。这表明Staley对Clark是支持的。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段中“In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America’s beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut (首秀).

(不过没关系，克拉克会将这次落选化为前进的动力，2028 年洛杉矶奥运会在等着她。)”和最后一段“Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark’s comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league’s ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory — Clark is ready for even greater success. (如今，Clark成为了年度最佳新秀的有力竞争者，她的强势回归重新唤起了人们对WNBA的关注。Fever的比赛门票售罄，联盟的收视率也有所上升。曾经看似艰难的开局如今已成为遥远的回忆——Clark已准备好迎接更大的成功。)”可知，被国家队拒绝后将其作为动力，体现了Clark的坚定。故选A。 C Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated, but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a real-world setting such as a live concert. In her study published in PLOS ONE, she tested how well a group of 90 healthy adults, ranging in age from 18 to 86, were able to recognize familiar and unfamiliar musical themes at a live concert. The study focused on three music pieces: Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart, which most participants were familiar with, and two experimental pieces. One of these was tonal and easy to listen to; the other was more atonal (无调的) and didn’t follow the typical melodic (旋律的) standards of Western classical music. A short melodic phrase from each of the three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they recognized that theme in the piece. The melodic phrase from the Eine kleine Nachtmusik was equally well recognized across all ages, with no toss of recognition as age increased. All participants were less confident in recognizing the theme in the unfamiliar tonal piece, and even less confident with the unfamiliar atonal piece. This patter, too, did not vary with age. Steffen Herff, a cognitive (认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to age-related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in memory.“We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit like an important stamp,” he says. The study collected limited data on some participants’ cognitive health, and so didn’t provide detailed insights into how cognitive disorders affect memory recall. But it revealed the great interest in using music as a memory aid for other information in individuals with neurogenerative conditions such as dementia (痴呆). 8. What can be inferred from previous research? A. Age increase affects musical memory. B. Music recall in real life proves challenging. C. Ageing influences memory in every respect. D. Established knowledge benefits recognition. 9. What should participants do in Sarah Sauvé’s experiment? A. Compare the rhythms. B. Identify specific phrases. C. Recognize the composers. D. Memorize complex themes. 10. Why does Steffen Herff mention “an important stamp” in paragraph 4? A. To stress the positive impact of music. B. To explain the reason for cognitive decline. C. To illustrate the role of emotions in memory. D. To emphasize the emotions’ resistance to age. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Masic: A Powerful Memory Aid B. Musical Memory: Free from Ageing C. Familiarity: Key to Ageless Memory D. Memory and Emotion: Cognitive Twins 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了音乐记忆不受年龄影响的研究发现。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段中“Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. (过去的研究表明，记忆的许多方面会受到衰老的影响，而依赖于人们熟知信息的识别任务则不会。)”可知，记忆的许多方面都会受到衰老的影响，而依赖于已知信息的识别任务则不会。因此可以推断出，已确立的知识有助于认知。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“A short melodic phrase from each of the three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they recognized that theme in the piece. (每首乐曲开头都会播放三次一个简短的旋律片段，参与者随后记录他们何时再次识别出该乐曲主题。)”可知，参与者需要识别特定的旋律片段。故选B。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中“Steffen Herff, a cognitive (认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to age- related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in memory.“We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit like an important stamp,” he says. (认知神经科学家Steffen Herff表示，音乐记忆似乎能抵御与年龄相关的认知衰退，原因可能在于音乐能唤起人们的情感，这使得音乐在记忆中扎根更深。“我们从一般的记忆研究中了解到，实际上，情感加工有点像是一枚重要的印记，”他说道。)”可知，他提到“一个重要的印记”是为了说明情感在记忆中的作用。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing, whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated, but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a real-world setting such as a live concert. (过去的研究表明，记忆的许多方面会受到衰老的影响，而依赖于人们熟知信息的认知任务则不会。年龄对音乐回忆能力的影响也已经有人研究过了，但林肯大学的音乐学家Sarah Sauve却对在诸如现场音乐会这样的现实场景中探究这一影响很感兴趣。)”可知，文章主要讲述了音乐记忆似乎不受与年龄相关的认知衰退的影响，并探讨了其原因可能是音乐引发的情感使音乐记忆更加根深蒂固。因此，B选项“Musical Memory: Free from Ageing (音乐记忆：不受年龄影响)”最能概括文章主旨。故选B。 D In a grassland in Cambridge, Ont., a low hum fills the air. It’s a warm spring day and eastern bumblebee (大黄蜂) queens are busy with pollination (授粉). But take a closer look and you’ll notice some of them are wearing...backpacks? These backpacks are actually a tool used by post-doctoral fellow Amanda Liczner of the University of Guelph to learn more about the bees’ movement, behaviour and habitat choices. Instead of GPS collars normally used for tracking larger species, Liczner’s team attached tiny trackers to the queens’ backs. Once attached, these tiny trackers transmit radio signals to a collection of 44 radio towers which process the signals to record precise whereabouts. Liczner can then download the data from the towers to figure out how the bees are spending their time. While we do know bumblebees need flowers, as Liczner will tell you, there’s a lot we still don’t know about bumblebees, especially about how pesticides (杀虫剂) affect bees’ movement. This lack of information, says Liczner, makes it tricky to provide specific conservation recommendations. So far, the team has made some interesting discoveries. In experiments focused on how different pesticides affect bee movement, the scientists learned that while using newer classes of pesticides may not kill bumblebees, “we have found that they’re flying in significantly odd ways,” says Liczner. For example, pesticide-treated late-season queens, which would usually be resting and building up energy reserves for the winter, were moving “all over the place,” potentially burning up the fat stores they need to survive the winter. What’s more, 30% of flights are at night. That “blows everyone’s mind,” says Liczner. “And it’s at all times of night!” This is important and potentially perturbing information, she says, because some regulations allow farmers to use pesticides between dusk and dawn, when bees were previously thought to be inactive. This late summer, Liczner and her team were able to follow the backpacked queens to the spots where they dug into the ground to spend the winter. When the queens emerge, unfolding their wings in the spring sunshine, Liczner hopes to be there to learn more from this understudied species. 12. What is the function of “backpacks” on bumblebee queens? A. To film bees’ habitats. B. To reveal bees’ locations. C. To attach GPS collars to bees. D. To receive signals from towers. 13. How do pesticides impact bumblebees? A. They disrupt bees’ flight patterns. B. They decrease bees’ night activity. C. They confuse bees’ perception of seasons. D. They limit bees’ energy storage for winter. 14. What does the underlined word “perturbing” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Confusing. B. Exciting. C. Alarming. D. Comforting. 15. What might Liczner’s study help in the future? A. Develop effective pesticides. B. Discover unexplored species. C. Promote agricultural policies. D. Conduct tailored preservation. 【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究人员通过给大黄蜂安装微型追踪器来研究蜜蜂的行为模式以及杀虫剂所带来的影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Once attached, these tiny trackers transmit radio signals to a collection of 44 radio towers which process the signals to record precise whereabouts.(一旦连接上，这些微小的追踪器就会向44个无线电塔发送无线电信号，无线电塔会对信号进行处理，以记录精确的位置)”可知，大黄蜂女王的“背包”可以揭示蜜蜂的位置。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“In experiments focused on how different pesticides affect bee movement, the scientists learned that while using newer classes of pesticides may not kill bumblebees, “we have found that they’re flying in significantly odd ways,” says Liczner. For example, pesticide-treated late-season queens, which would usually be resting and building up energy reserves for the winter, were moving “all over the place,” potentially burning up the fat stores they need to survive the winter.(在专注于不同杀虫剂如何影响蜜蜂运动的实验中，科学家们了解到，虽然使用新型杀虫剂可能不会杀死大黄蜂，但“我们发现它们以非常奇怪的方式飞行，”Liczner说。例如，经过杀虫剂处理的晚季蜂王，通常会休息并为冬天积累能量储备，它们正在“到处”移动，可能会燃烧它们过冬所需的脂肪储备)”可知，杀虫剂扰乱了蜜蜂的飞行模式。故选A。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“What’s more, 30% of flights are at night.(更重要的是，30%的蜜蜂是在夜间飞行)”以及后文“because some regulations allow farmers to use pesticides between dusk and dawn, when bees were previously thought to be inactive(因为一些法规允许农民在黄昏到黎明之间使用杀虫剂，而这段时间蜜蜂被认为是不活跃的)”可知，法规允许农民在黄昏到黎明之间使用杀虫剂，导致原本这段时间不活跃的蜜蜂也夜间飞行，所以是揭示了令人担忧的信息。故划线词意思是“令人担忧的”故选C。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“This late summer, Liczner and her team were able to follow the backpacked queens to the spots where they dug into the ground to spend the winter. When the queens emerge, unfolding their wings in the spring sunshine, Liczner hopes to be there to learn more from this understudied species.(这个夏末，Liczner和她的团队能够跟随背包皇后到他们挖地过冬的地方。当蚁后在春天的阳光下展开翅膀时，Liczner希望能从这个未被充分研究的物种身上学到更多)”可知，Liczner的研究在未来有助于进行专门针对性的保护。故选D。 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 a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic (地道的). ___16___ People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity. ___17___ There home cooking is often the last way to show their identity, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was accused of trying to take advantage of positive feelings about Jamaica. His meal product had a Jamaican name, but was unlike genuine Jamaican cooking. However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity. ____18____ It’s common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting — restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures. ___19___ while large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries — China, India, Italy, Mexico and more — these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries. For instance, regional specialties in Mexico are assumed quite different from what people eat in America. But in essence, they can both be authentic examples of Mexican food. A more controversial view of authenticity was stated by American Chef Andrew Zimmern, who claimed that he could present Chinese dishes in a more authentic way than existing restaurants. Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern. ____20____ So, while food and identity are closely linked, it makes sense to give a second thought about the whole idea of authenticity. A. But is this a good thing? B. It’s a symbol of cultural diversity, C. That means adaptation is unavoidable. D. They can generate severe consequences. E. And unreasonable expectations are the core. F. It’s particularly true for migrant communities. G. Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity. 【答案】16. A 17. F 18. E 19. G 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕食物的地道性展开讨论，指出人们重视地道性与身份认同有关，但这一概念存在问题，最后建议重新思考地道性的概念。 【16题详解】 上文“As a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic (地道的).(由于贸易、旅行和移民，不同的美食传遍了世界。许多食谱、厨师和餐厅都试图宣称他们所呈现的某种烹饪传统是最地道的)”描述了不同美食传播及人们宣称食物地道的现象。A选项“But is this a good thing?(但这是一件好事吗？)”与上文构成转折，提出疑问，引发后文关于食物地道性利弊的讨论，上下文衔接自然。故选A项。 【17题详解】 上文“People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity.(人们在意地道性是因为食物传统与身份认同紧密相连)”强调了“身份认同”与饮食传统的关联性，因此下文需具体指向移民群体‌。F选项“It’s particularly true for migrant communities.(这对移民群体来说尤其如此)”指出对于移民群体，食物传统与身份认同的联系更为紧密，与下文内容相契合，说明移民群体通过家常烹饪来展示身份。故选F项。 【18题详解】 上文“However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity.(然而，食品顾问萨拉·凯认为，“正宗”这个概念存在问题)”指出“正宗”这个概念存在问题。下文“It’s common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting — restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures.(多数文化对少数文化和他们的食物有疯狂的幻想是很常见的。这些期望可能是有限制的——餐馆老板抱怨说，人们认为亚洲食品比欧洲食品便宜)”指出了人们会有不合理的预期。E选项“And unreasonable expectations are the core.(不合理的期望是核心)”进一步指出问题所在，即在意地道性背后可能存在不合理期望，与下文Jamie Oliver被指责利用人们对牙买加食物的积极情感相呼应，说明不合理期望可能带来的后果。故选E项。 【19题详解】 下文“While large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries — China, India, Italy, Mexico and more — these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries.(虽然大城市里满是代表不同国家的餐厅——中国、印度、意大利、墨西哥等等——但这些标签可能会过度简化来自这些国家食物的实际情况)”说明人们对不同国家食物存在简单化、不真实的认知。G选项“Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity.(期望也可能会给人一种关于地道性的错误观念)”引出下文，指出人们的期望会导致对食物地道性的错误认知，与下文内容逻辑一致。故选G项。 【20题详解】 上文“Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern.(作家兼美食播客主持人Ruth Tam指出，虽然这些餐厅会改变食谱以适应当地口味，Zimmern也是如此)”说明餐厅和厨师都会根据当地口味调整食谱。C选项“That means adaptation is unavoidable.(这意味着适应是不可避免的)”总结上文，表明为了适应不同情况而做出改变是必然的，与上文逻辑连贯。故选C项。 第三部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Traveling initially felt like something fake.

I ran straight to her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!” She squeezed me into a hug, whispering about my favorite chocolate-strawberry cake she had made, and her intention to persuade my parents to let me play video games, which hadn’t happened since I was six. Then, I noticed Grandpa, who, contrary to my grandma, always sits outside and complains that the air isn’t as fresh as it is in the mountains where he used to go hiking for days when he was young, and that kids have no respect, claiming that all they do is play video games. Now on the porch sat Grandpa, like a sack of wrinkled onions, asleep in a rocking chair, snoring like thunder, on his only grandson’s birthday! “Wake up, sleepyhead!” I mounted the porch steps, only to be greeted by more snores. “Fine,” I groaned, “we’ll have the cake without you!” It was Grandma’s request to wait ten more minutes that brought me to tears. An angry hurricane was spinning up inside me, and I exploded. My fists clenched, I had been sobbing and screaming until Dad held my shoulder firmly. Mom touched my hair, instructing me to take a deep breath and relax. Finally, Grandpa was awake, coughing, snorting, and squinting right at me like an angry goat. “Boy,” he spoke in a rough, low voice, “come here.” He was struggling to his feet when Grandma hurried over with his walker, which Grandpa usually pushes at about 0.3 miles per hour. “You and I,” said Grandpa, “are going on a walk.” “NO!” I shouted. “You can’t tell me what to do!” But Grandpa kept looking at me with that scary look on his face. Not even Grandma came to my rescue. Unwilling as I was, I gave in and dragged myself forward. Then we were inching down the path into the garden. I expected him to lecture me-about ceasing to be a spoiled child and respecting my elders, blah, blah, blah. Instead, he asked in a soft voice whether my parents were very busy. I was too confused to respond. 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。 Paragraph 1: “Help me sit there” he demanded, pointing to a bench. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: It hit me how selfish I was. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “Help me sit there”, he demanded, pointing to a bench. Considering that I can do whatever on my birthday, I was about to tum him down when his shaking legs and bent knees forced me to grip his arms and lower him down nice and slow. “Thank you!” he said, breathing hard like he had climbed a hill. Then he talked about his youth and his adventures in the mountains. I listened intently and asked good questions, realizing that there was more to him than just the grumpy old man I had seen earlier. It hit me how selfish I was. I had been so focused on my own desires and frustrations that I had failed to see Grandpa as a person with his own stories and struggles. Thinking of all the attempts he had made to connect with me, I realized how impatient and disrespectful I was. It was then that I resolved to be more understanding and patient. When we returned to the party for the cake, I apologized to Grandpa and was responded with a big hug of forgiveness. In cheers of “happy birthday,” I shed tears again, but it somewhat felt more like my birthday than ever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。今天作者八岁生日，认为自己说了算。到爷爷奶奶家，奶奶热情迎接，爷爷却在生日时睡着。作者叫不醒爷爷很生气，大闹一场后被爸妈安抚。爷爷醒来要和作者散步，作者不情愿但还是去了。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“‘扶我坐到那边去。’他指着一张长椅要求道。”可知，第一段可以描写作者扶着爷爷坐下的过程和二人的交流。 ②由第二段句首内容“我突然意识到自己有多自私。”可知，第二段可以描写作者的自我反思和对爷爷表达歉意后爷爷的反应。 2.续写线索：要求扶着坐到那边—慢慢地帮他坐下—回忆和交流—意识到自己自私—下定决心改变—原谅 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①迫使：force/compel ②抓牢：grip/grasp ③意识到：realize/perceive 情绪类 ①沮丧：frustration/depression ②不耐烦的：impatient/restive 【点睛】【高分句型1】Considering that I can do whatever on my birthday, I was about to tum him down when his shaking legs and bent knees forced me to grip his arms and lower him down nice and slow.

B In June 2024, Caitlin Clark, America’s beloved college basketball sensation, faced a harsh reality check in her WNBA debut (首秀). Struggling with her shot, her handle, and adapting to a new team, Clark appeared overmatched, unable to bring forth the magic that helped the distance-shooting player achieve fame and glory. Critics quickly spoke out, calling her early performance a disappointment for the No. 1 overall pick. But the struggles didn’t last long. By Sunday, Clark led the Indiana Fever to a decisive 92-75 victory over the Seattle Storm, marking the Fever’s fourth win in five games. This turnaround brought their record to 13-15, surpassing last year’s total and placing them in a strong position for the playoffs. While Kelsey Mitchell and Lexie Hull delivered strong performances, it was Clark’s leadership that powered the team’s comeback. Against Seattle, Clark finished with 23 points, five rebounds and nine assists, but it’s her confidence that leaps out. The former Hawkeye has regained not just her shot, but her charisma (魅力) and control. On the court, almost all of the action is again flowing through her as she creates opportunities for others. Her vision — her ability to find teammates moving quickly up the court — remains impressively precise. By the time the Games came around, even the unofficial queen of women’s basketball, Dawn Staley, acknowledged that Clark’s play had risen to Team USA standard. She argued the country blew a great opportunity by leaving Clark home. Though Paris gold was still won by the U.S., I agree with Staley: a chance to lift the sport was missed. Oh well. Clark will use the rejection for fuel, and Los Angeles 2028 awaits her. Now a candidate for Rookie of the Year, Clark’s comeback has reawakened interest in the WNBA. Fever games are selling out, and the league’s ratings are up. What was once seen as a rough start is now a distant memory — Clark is ready for even greater success. 4. What caused Clark’s poor performance at the start of her WNBA career? A. A stronger opponent. B. Pressure from critics. C. A shift of environment. D. Her decline in fitness. 5. What was the key to the Fever’s win over the Storm? A. Clark’s competence in leading. B. Clark’s adjustments in strategy. C. Fever’s enhancement in teamwork. D. Storm’s turnaround in performance. 6. What is Staley’s attitude to Clark? A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Unconcerned. D. Supportive. 7. Which of the following words best describe Clark? A. Adaptable and determined. B. Considerate and resourceful. C. Talented and patient. D. Creative and confident. C Past research has shown that many aspects of memory are affected by ageing whereas recognition tasks that rely on well-known information are not. The effect of age on the ability to recall music has also been investigated, but Sarah Sauve, a music scientist at the University of Lincoln, was interested in exploring this effect in a real-world setting such as a live concert. In her study published in PLOS ONE, she tested how well a group of 90 healthy adults, ranging in age from 18 to 86, were able to recognize familiar and unfamiliar musical themes at a live concert. The study focused on three music pieces: Eine kleine Nachtmusik by Mozart, which most participants were familiar with, and two experimental pieces. One of these was tonal and easy to listen to; the other was more atonal (无调的) and didn’t follow the typical melodic (旋律的) standards of Western classical music. A short melodic phrase from each of the three pieces was played three times at the beginning of that piece, and participants then logged whenever they recognized that theme in the piece. The melodic phrase from the Eine kleine Nachtmusik was equally well recognized across all ages, with no toss of recognition as age increased. All participants were less confident in recognizing the theme in the unfamiliar tonal piece, and even less confident with the unfamiliar atonal piece. This patter, too, did not vary with age. Steffen Herff, a cognitive (认知的) neuroscientist, says the reason musical memory seems to be resistant to age-related cognitive declines might be the emotions that music stirs in people, which makes it more rooted in memory.“We know from general memory research that, effectively, the emotional processing operates a little bit like an important stamp,” he says. The study collected limited data on some participants’ cognitive health, and so didn’t provide detailed insights into how cognitive disorders affect memory recall. But it revealed the great interest in using music as a memory aid for other information in individuals with neurogenerative conditions such as dementia (痴呆). 8. What can be inferred from previous research? A. Age increase affects musical memory. B. Music recall in real life proves challenging. C. Ageing influences memory in every respect. D. Established knowledge benefits recognition. 9. What should participants do in Sarah Sauvé’s experiment? A. Compare the rhythms. B. Identify specific phrases. C. Recognize the composers. D. Memorize complex themes. 10. Why does Steffen Herff mention “an important stamp” in paragraph 4? A. To stress the positive impact of music. B. To explain the reason for cognitive decline. C. To illustrate the role of emotions in memory. D. To emphasize the emotions’ resistance to age. 11. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Masic: A Powerful Memory Aid B. Musical Memory: Free from Ageing C. Familiarity: Key to Ageless Memory D. Memory and Emotion: Cognitive Twins D In a grassland in Cambridge, Ont., a low hum fills the air. It’s a warm spring day and eastern bumblebee (大黄蜂) queens are busy with pollination (授粉). But take a closer look and you’ll notice some of them are wearing...backpacks? These backpacks are actually a tool used by post-doctoral fellow Amanda Liczner of the University of Guelph to learn more about the bees’ movement, behaviour and habitat choices. Instead of GPS collars normally used for tracking larger species, Liczner’s team attached tiny trackers to the queens’ backs. Once attached, these tiny trackers transmit radio signals to a collection of 44 radio towers which process the signals to record precise whereabouts. Liczner can then download the data from the towers to figure out how the bees are spending their time. While we do know bumblebees need flowers, as Liczner will tell you, there’s a lot we still don’t know about bumblebees, especially about how pesticides (杀虫剂) affect bees’ movement. This lack of information, says Liczner, makes it tricky to provide specific conservation recommendations. So far, the team has made some interesting discoveries. In experiments focused on how different pesticides affect bee movement, the scientists learned that while using newer classes of pesticides may not kill bumblebees, “we have found that they’re flying in significantly odd ways,” says Liczner. For example, pesticide-treated late-season queens, which would usually be resting and building up energy reserves for the winter, were moving “all over the place,” potentially burning up the fat stores they need to survive the winter. What’s more, 30% of flights are at night. That “blows everyone’s mind,” says Liczner. “And it’s at all times of night!” This is important and potentially perturbing information, she says, because some regulations allow farmers to use pesticides between dusk and dawn, when bees were previously thought to be inactive. This late summer, Liczner and her team were able to follow the backpacked queens to the spots where they dug into the ground to spend the winter. When the queens emerge, unfolding their wings in the spring sunshine, Liczner hopes to be there to learn more from this understudied species. 12. What is the function of “backpacks” on bumblebee queens? A. To film bees’ habitats. B. To reveal bees’ locations. C. To attach GPS collars to bees. D. To receive signals from towers. 13. How do pesticides impact bumblebees? A. They disrupt bees’ flight patterns. B. They decrease bees’ night activity. C. They confuse bees’ perception of seasons. D. They limit bees’ energy storage for winter. 14. What does the underlined word “perturbing” in paragraph 5 mean? A. Confusing. B. Exciting. C. Alarming. D. Comforting. 15. What might Liczner’s study help in the future? A. Develop effective pesticides. B. Discover unexplored species. C. Promote agricultural policies. D. Conduct tailored preservation. 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 a result of trade, travel and migration, different cuisines have spread across the world. Many recipes, chefs and restaurants try to claim that their example of a particular cooking tradition is the most authentic (地道的). ___16___ People care about authenticity because food traditions are closely linked to identity. ___17___ There home cooking is often the last way to show their identity, British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver was accused of trying to take advantage of positive feelings about Jamaica. His meal product had a Jamaican name, but was unlike genuine Jamaican cooking. However, food consultant Sara Kay argues that there are problems with the idea of authenticity. ____18____ It’s common for majority cultures to have wild fantasies about minority cultures and their food. These expectations can be restricting — restaurant owners have complained that people expect Asian food to be cheaper than that from European cultures. ___19___ while large cities are full of restaurants representing different countries — China, India, Italy, Mexico and more — these labels can oversimplify the reality of food from these countries. For instance, regional specialties in Mexico are assumed quite different from what people eat in America. But in essence, they can both be authentic examples of Mexican food. A more controversial view of authenticity was stated by American Chef Andrew Zimmern, who claimed that he could present Chinese dishes in a more authentic way than existing restaurants. Writer and food podcaster Ruth Tam points out that while these restaurants change their recipes to suit local tastes. so does Zimmern. ____20____ So, while food and identity are closely linked, it makes sense to give a second thought about the whole idea of authenticity. A. But is this a good thing? B. It’s a symbol of cultural diversity, C. That means adaptation is unavoidable. D. They can generate severe consequences. E And unreasonable expectations are the core. F. It’s particularly true for migrant communities. G Expectations can also give a false idea of authenticity. 第三部分 语言知识运用(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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Traveling initially felt like something fake.

Grandma was gardening when we pulled up for the party. I ran straight to her. “Happy birthday, sweetie!” She squeezed me into a hug, whispering about my favorite chocolate-strawberry cake she had made, and her intention to persuade my parents to let me play video games, which hadn’t happened since I was six. Then, I noticed Grandpa, who, contrary to my grandma, always sits outside and complains that the air isn’t as fresh as it is in the mountains where he used to go hiking for days when he was young, and that kids have no respect, claiming that all they do is play video games. Now on the porch sat Grandpa, like a sack of wrinkled onions, asleep in a rocking chair, snoring like thunder, on his only grandson’s birthday! “Wake up, sleepyhead!” I mounted the porch steps, only to be greeted by more snores. “Fine,” I groaned, “we’ll have the cake without you!” It was Grandma’s request to wait ten more minutes that brought me to tears. An angry hurricane was spinning up inside me, and I exploded. My fists clenched, I had been sobbing and screaming until Dad held my shoulder firmly. Mom touched my hair, instructing me to take a deep breath and relax. Finally, Grandpa was awake, coughing, snorting, and squinting right at me like an angry goat. “Boy,” he spoke in a rough, low voice, “come here.” He was struggling to his feet when Grandma hurried over with his walker, which Grandpa usually pushes at about 0.3 miles per hour. “You and I,” said Grandpa, “are going on a walk.” “NO!” I shouted. “You can’t tell me what to do!” But Grandpa kept looking at me with that scary look on his face. Not even Grandma came to my rescue. Unwilling as I was, I gave in and dragged myself forward. Then we were inching down the path into the garden. I expected him to lecture me-about ceasing to be a spoiled child and respecting my elders, blah, blah, blah. Instead, he asked in a soft voice whether my parents were very busy. I was too confused to respond. 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。 Paragraph 1: “Help me sit there”, he demanded, pointing to a bench. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: It hit me how selfish I was. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 听力1-5 ABBCA 6-10CAABC 11-15CABBA 16-20 BABCC 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
