My sister, Merry, was born two years later. Our house was set far back from the road. It felt safe and adventurous with a big back yard and suburban wildlife. The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old. Playing beneath Old Oak, my best friend, Justine, and I made toy horses. From Old Oak’s lowest branch, my dad hung a wooden board on a chain for a swing. The back-and-forth motion of the swing and rhythmic clicking of the chain comforted me. I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. Time passed. I was swinging less under the tree and more on the dance floor. Long after my father sold the house, Merry and I visited Old Oak when attending Verona High reunions. Justine called last October. A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree. I found the real estate (房产) photo. In front of the house lay two huge lengths of trunk. I’d have to act fast to get a piece for Merry and me. The agent involved in the sale said that he would try to talk with the new owner. However, that attempt failed. Then I turned to John Zelenka, an artful arborist, for help. Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire. On a cold April morning, my husband and I met Zelenka to examine the pieces he’d cut after transporting the trunk. I couldn’t call Merry fast enough. She was excited. Trees give us such gifts from flowers to shade. My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form. 4. What do we know about Old Oak? A. It witnessed the author’s birth. B. It failed to survive a snowstorm. C. It was located at the side of a road. D. It was a tall, centuries-old tree. 5. Why did Justine call the author last October? A. To report an incident about Old Oak. B. To inquire about the author’s property. C. To recall their days spent under Old Oak. D. To invite her to attend Verona High reunions. 6. What can we infer about the author from the last two paragraphs? A. She was unable to contact Merry. B. She felt grateful and comforted. C. She decided to start a whole new life. D. She made wooden works out of the pieces. 7. What’s the writing purpose of the text? A. To detail the process of reusing a fallen tree. B. To explore how trees symbolize family traditions. C. To emphasize the importance of protecting ancient trees. D. To share a heartfelt personal experience with a beloved tree. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍的是作者与童年老宅前的巨大橡树Old Oak之间的深厚情感以及它被砍倒后的感人故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old.(我们叫它老橡树。一位树艺师在1947年的暴风雪过后替我父母检查了老橡树，说它已经有300年的历史了)和第二段中的“I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. (我会躺在绿色的伞下，欣赏高大的老橡树——我的保护者)”可知，这棵老橡树非常高大，而且树龄已有几百年。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree.(一位新主人买下了这块地，把树砍了下来。)”可知，Justine给作者打电话是为了告诉她有人买下了这处房产并把那棵树砍了。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire.(幸运的是，他给我寄来了剩下的树干碎片的照片，联系了主人，并向我在新罕布什尔州的木工爱好者儿子推荐了一些碎片)”以及最后一段中的“My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form.(我与老橡树的关系已经以一种新的形式延续。)”可推知，作者与老橡树的关系以新的方式继续，这让她感到安心。故选B。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据首段中的“The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old.(迄今为止，最吸引我的是前院那棵巨大的树，它高耸入云，我们称之为老橡树。1947年暴风雪后，一位为我父母检查老橡树的树艺师宣布它已有300年的历史。)”可知，作者从小就被老橡树吸引，结合下文介绍的从作者童年的回忆到得知它被砍伐后的反应，再到最终找到一种方式保存它的部分作为纪念可知，全文围绕作者与Old Oak的情感纽带展开，核心是个人与树的情感联结，所以本文的目的是分享一段与心爱树木有关的真挚个人经历。故选D。 C Today’s journalists face modern challenges. Online media platforms are springing up. And the lowly newspaper and its reporters are fighting money, tech, and distrust issues. Journalism students and teachers must emphasize new skills to keep their profession alive. A trustworthy press helps inform people and monitor all levels of government. That is essential to a nation. Yet this useful establishment is growing increasingly unpopular. According to the University of North Carolina (UNC), newsroom jobs across the country are fewer than half what they were 10 years ago. And on many college campuses, the news about the news is bleak too. Take the Syracuse, New York, student-run newspaper The Daily Orange: It isn’t daily anymore. The paper prints just three times each week. Next year, The Diamondback of the University of Maryland will be online only. Half the newspapers that still exist on paper say they don’t print as many copies. And UNC’s The Daily Tar Heel has cut staff pay and rented cheaper offices to make its budget. Considering the problems in journalism, it’s surprising that the enrollment (注册人数) in college journalism programs is up. The Daily Orange managing editor Catherine Leffert calls the layoffs and cutbacks disheartening. “But what keeps me wanting to be a journalist is seeing the effect that The Daily Orange has,” she says. But journalism educators wonder, “Are we preparing young people for a dying industry?” Years ago, journalism graduates took low-level reporter jobs at newspapers or television stations. That still happens. But today’s jobs more often involve digital editing, social media production, and video streaming. Some universities are taking action. The University of Florida offers a sports media program. Several schools highlight statistics-driven data journalism. The news isn’t all bad. Journalism professor Kathleen Culver says, “When I look at 18–and 20-year-olds in journalism and see what they want to do, I’m optimistic.” Maddy Arrowood is the student editor of The Daily Tar Heel. She says her experience makes her more interested in a journalism career, not less. Her optimism “comes from knowing that people still need news. They still need information.” 8. What mainly contributes to the challenges for today’s journalists? A. More printed newspapers are in great need. B. The newsroom jobs are decreasing worldwide. C. Online newspapers take the place of printed ones. D. Online media platforms are developing quickly. 9. What does the underlined word “bleak” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Depressing. B. Interesting. C. Inspiring. D. Encouraging. 10. How do some universities respond to today’s journalism? A. They reduce student enrollment. B. They offer students specialized programs. C. They prepare students for low-level reporter jobs. D. They encourage students to run their own newspaper. 11. Why is Maddy Arrowood mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To show people’s positive attitudes to journalists. B. To prove the potential of a career in journalism. C. To show the popularity of The Daily Tar Heel. D. To prove people’s thirst for the latest news. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了新闻业未来的发展与面临的挑战。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Today’s journalists face modern challenges. Online media platforms are springing up. And the lowly newspaper and its reporters are fighting money, tech, and distrust issues. (今天的记者面临着现代的挑战。网络媒体平台如雨后春笋般涌现。地位低下的报纸及其记者正在与金钱、技术和不信任问题作斗争)”可知，今天的记者面临的挑战主要是网络媒体平台发展迅速。故选D。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“According to the University of North Carolina (UNC), newsroom jobs across the country are fewer than half what they were 10 years ago. (根据北卡罗来纳大学（UNC）的数据，全国新闻编辑室的工作岗位不到10年前的一半。)”可知，全国的新闻编辑部的工作岗位不到十年前的一半，结合第三段中的“Take the Syracuse, New York, student-run newspaper The Daily Orange: It isn’t daily anymore. The paper prints just three times each week. Next year, The Diamondback of the University of Maryland will be online only.(以纽约锡拉丘兹的学生报纸《每日橘子报》（the Daily Orange）为例：它不再是日报了。这份报纸每周只印刷三次。明年，马里兰大学的The Diamondback将只在网上开放。)”可知，学生报纸的现状堪忧，由此可知，在许多大学校园里，关于新闻的消息同样也是令人沮丧的，由此可知，划线单词的意思与“令人沮丧的”意义相近。故选A。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Some universities are taking action. The University of Florida offers a sports media program. Several schools highlight statistics-driven data journalism. (一些大学正在采取行动。佛罗里达大学提供体育媒体课程。一些学校强调统计驱动的数据新闻。)”可知，一些大学正在采取行动，会给学生提供专门的课程。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Maddy Arrowood is the student editor of The Daily Tar Heel. She says her experience makes her more interested in a journalism career, not less. (Maddy Arrowood是the Daily Tar Heel的学生编辑。她说，她的经历使她对新闻事业更感兴趣，而不是更不感兴趣)”可知，马迪的经历让她对新闻事业更感兴趣，所以最后一段提到她是为了说明“新闻业的发展具有潜力”。故选B。 D Researchers found that they could accurately predict how close two people were based only on their brain activity in response to a series of unfamiliar video clips. Simply put: You and your best friends really do think alike. According to a Dartmouth study finding, friends have similar neural (神经的) responses to real-world stimuli (刺激) and these similarities can be used to predict who your friends are. The study reveals that friends have the most similar neural activity patterns, followed by friends-of-friends who, in turn, have more similar neural activity than people three degrees removed (friends-of-friends-of-friends). Published in Nature Communications, the study is the first of its kind to examine the connections between the neural reaction of people within a real-world social network. “Neural responses to dynamic, naturalistic stimuli, like videos, can give us a window into people’s unlimited, unplanned thought processes as they unfold. Our results suggest that friends process the world around them in exceptionally similar ways,” says lead author Carolyn Parkinson. The study analyzed the friendships or social ties within a group of 280 graduate students. The researchers estimated the social distance between pairs of individuals based on mutually (相互地) reported social ties. Forty-two of the students were asked to watch a range of videos while their neural activity was recorded in a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner. The videos covered a range of topics and genres, including politics, science, comedy and music videos, for which a range of responses was expected. Each participant watched the same videos in the same order, with the same instructions. The researchers then compared the neural responses pairwise across the set of students to determine if pairs of students who were friends had more similar brain activity than pairs further removed from each other in their social network. The findings revealed that neural response similarity was strongest among friends, and this pattern appeared across brain regions involved in emotional responding and high-level reasoning. Even when the researchers controlled variables, including left-handedness or right-handedness, age, gender, race, and nationality, the analogy in neural activity among friends was still evident. The team also found that fMRI response similarities could be used to predict not only if a pair were friends but also the social distance between the two. 12. What can we learn about the study mentioned in the text? A. It is original and checks people’s neural responses. B. It has yet to win recognition from the academic world. C. It involved more than 200 students watching various videos. D. It required a professional device to analyze participants’ conversation. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The design of the study. B. The process of the study. C. The findings of the study. D. The innovation of the study. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A. Skeptical. B. Supportive. C. Indifferent. D. Neutral. 15. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Neural Responses Shape Social Bonds B. How Videos Connect People’s Minds C. The Science Behind Social Networks. D. Friendship Seen Through Neural Patterns. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. D 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究，该研究发现朋友之间对现实世界的刺激有相似的神经反应，这些相似性可以用来预测谁是你的朋友。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Published in Nature Communications, the study is the first of its kind to examine the connections between the neural reaction of people within a real-world social network. (该研究发表在《自然通讯》杂志上，是同类研究中首次研究现实社会网络中人们神经反应之间的联系)” 可知，这项研究具有原创性，且测验了人们的神经反应。故选A项。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“The study analyzed the friendships or social ties within a group of 280 graduate students.(这项研究分析了280名研究生之间的友谊或社会联系)”和“Forty-two of the students were asked to watch a range of videos while their neural activity was recorded in a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner.(42名学生被要求观看一系列视频，同时他们的神经活动被功能磁共振成像(fMRI)扫描仪记录下来)”可知，本段主要介绍研究对象的选择、实验方法以及数据收集等，即这项研究的过程。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段的“Researchers found that they could accurately predict how close two people were based only on their brain activity in response to a series of unfamiliar video clips.( 研究人员发现，仅根据两个人在观看一系列不熟悉的视频片段时的大脑活动，他们就能准确预测两个人的亲密程度。)”和最后一段的“The findings revealed that neural response similarity was strongest among friends, and this pattern appeared across brain regions involved in emotional responding and high-level reasoning.( 研究结果显示，朋友之间的神经反应相似性最强，这种模式出现在涉及情绪反应和高级推理的大脑区域。)”并通读全文可知，作者在文中只是客观地介绍了这项研究的内容、过程和发现等，没有明显的支持、怀疑或冷漠的态度，所以是中立的(Neutral)态度，故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“According to a Dartmouth study finding, friends have similar neural (神经的) responses to real-world stimuli (刺激) and these similarities can be used to predict who your friends are.(根据达特茅斯学院的一项研究发现，朋友对现实世界的刺激有相似的神经反应，这些相似性可以用来预测谁是你的朋友)”可知，文章点明研究发现可以通过大脑对视频的反应预测两人关系，接着介绍研究的原创性、研究过程以及研究结果表明朋友间神经反应相似性最强且可用于预测友谊，文章整体围绕通过神经反应揭示友谊的研究展开。因此D项“从神经模式看友谊。”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D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。 Helping Your Teen Understand the Value of Money It seems that there are more things for teens to spend money on than ever. There are expensive clothes, video games, MP3 players, and more. ____16____ That’s why it’s important to help them understand the value of money. Start teaching your children about money early. Starting around age 10, give them a few dollars every week for them to spend however they want. ____17____ But let them choose what they want to do. Don’t set limits on what they can spend it on, and don’t continually buy them things they want. They’ll soon learn that if they spend all their money as soon as they get it, they won’t be able to afford more expensive things they want. You should also start early introducing your children to budgets (预算) and how much things cost. Have them go to the store with you or watch you pay the bills. ____18____ As your child gets older, about 13 or 14, increase their pocket money as you increase their responsibility. Once they’re more responsible, give them a budget for something bigger like clothes and make them stick to it. Eventually, your child will probably get a job. ____19____ Have them put some into a savings account to use for college or other pursuits. Let them use the rest as mad money to spend however they want. If you’re worried about what they’re buying, open them a checking account you can monitor. ____20____ It takes many small steps. Remember that they will probably mess up along the way, but mistakes are how they learn. A. Help them choose a well-paid job. B. And you can also encourage them to pay the bills. C. Take this opportunity to teach them about savings. D. Soon they’ll realize how much some things really cost. E. Make the pocket money dependent on doing housework. F. Teaching your child the value of money will not happen overnight. G. If you aren’t made of money, it’s hard to give your kids everything they want. 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. D 19. C 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章对如何教育孩子认识到金钱的价值提出了建议和方法。 【16题详解】 根据前文“There are expensive clothes, video games, MP3 players, and more.”(有昂贵的衣服、电子游戏、MP3播放器等等。)和后文“That’s why it’s important to help them understand the value of money.”(这就是为什么帮助他们理解金钱的价值是很重要的。)可知，此处是指不可能给孩子买一切他们想要的昂贵物品，所以需要让他们认识到金钱的价值，所以选项G“如果你不是很有钱，就很难给你的孩子他们想要的一切。”切合文意。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据前文“Starting around age 10, give them a few dollars every week for them to spend however they want.”(从10岁左右开始，每周给他们几美元，让他们想怎么花就怎么花。)可知，此处是讲给孩子零花钱，根据后文“But let them choose what they want to do.”(但让他们选择自己想做的事。)可知，此处是指让孩子通过做事情获得零花钱，所以选项E“让零花钱取决于做家务。”切合文意。故选E。 【18题详解】 根据前文“You should also start early introducing your children to budgets (预算) and how much things cost.”(你也应该尽早向你的孩子介绍预算和花费。)和“Have them go to the store with you or watch you pay the bills.”(让他们和你一起去商店，或者看着你付账单。)可知，此处是指通过让孩子一起去商店或者看着付账单让孩子了解预算和花费，所以选项D“很快他们就会意识到有些东西实际上要花多少钱。”切合文意。故选D。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Have them put some into a savings account to use for college or other pursuits.”(让他们存一些钱到储蓄账户里，用于上大学或其他追求。)可知，此处是指教会孩子存钱，所以选项C“利用这个机会教他们储蓄。”切合文意。故选C。 【20题详解】 根据后文“It takes many small steps.”(这需要很多小步骤。)可知，此处是指教育孩子不能一蹴而就，所以选项F“教育你的孩子金钱的价值不会一蹴而就。”切合文意。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分40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、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 One autumn morning, I spotted a pair of wild geese on our pond.

The machine had been in their family for years—first her mother’s, then hers. Veronica had always taken care of it, just like her mother had. Though it wasn’t in perfect condition, it still worked if used carefully. Veronica remembered the long hours her mother had spent sewing on it when she was growing up, especially during hard times. She also remembered how her mother had taught her to use the machine, her scolding (训斥) sharp and unforgiving, not allowing any mistakes. Now Jane was trying to use it, but she was impatiently pulling at the thread (线), causing the needle to get stuck (卡住) with every attempt. The sound of the machine’s protests — sharp, squeaky, and out of tune—made Veronica uneasy. “Stop pulling so bard,” Veronica said, her voice calm at first, “You’ll break it.” Jane glanced up, a little annoyed. “It’s already broken, Mom.” Veronica felt a knot tighten in her chest. She knew Jane didn’t understand. To her, it was just an old machine. But to Veronica, it was more than that. It was a link to her past. “Stop pulling at it like that,” Veronica said, her voice tense. “It’s not a toy, Jane. You can’t just force it.” Jane looked up, eyes defiant (反抗的). “It’s a piece of junk, Mom. I’m trying to fix it, but it’s useless.” Veronica stood up and grabbed Jane’s hand, forcing her to stop tugging at the machine. Her grip was tight, almost painful, and she shoved (推开) Jane’s hand away. “It’s not junk! You need to be careful with it!” Jane pulled her hand back, her eyes welling up with tears. She didn’t say anything, but the hurt was clear on her face. Veronica watched her for a few seconds, her heart still pounding in her chest. But at that very moment something changed inside her. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out at firs — only a breathless, frustrated sigh. A sudden, familiar feeling washed over her, an uncomfortable weight in her chest. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Her memories of sitting with her mother at the sewing machine flooded back. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible Version Her memories of sitting with her mother at the sewing machine flooded back. She remembered the warm glow of the lamp, the soft click of the pedals, and the gentle hum of the machine as they worked together, creating beautiful things. Veronica took a deep breath, her frustration melting away. She gently took Jane’s hand and placed it on her own lap. “Let’s do this together,” she said softly. Jane looked up at her, her eyes wide with surprise and a hint of relief. Together, they fixed the sewing machine, and in that moment, Veronica knew that the bond between them was unbreakable, just like the old sewing machine they cherished. Her memories of sitting with her mother at the sewing machine flooded back. She remembered how her mother’s hands moved skillfully on the machine, creating beautiful clothes. Her mother had always been patient, teaching her every little detail. Veronica’s eyes filled with tears as she realized she had been too hard on Jane. She took a deep breath and said softly, “Jane, this sewing machine is not just a thing. It has my mother’s love and our family’s stories in it.” Jane looked at her mother, seeing the deep emotion in her eyes. She nodded slowly, beginning to understand. “I’m sorry, Mom,” she said. Veronica smiled and hugged her daughter. The old sewing machine, once a source of conflict, now became a bridge for their understanding. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Veronica家中的旧缝纫机承载着她和母亲的回忆，她一直悉心维护。女儿Jane试图使用时，因急躁拉扯线致使针卡住，还称缝纫机已坏是垃圾。Veronica因Jane对缝纫机的不当对待而紧张，强硬制止，这让Jane伤心落泪，Veronica内心也有所触动。 【详解】1.段落续写：①由第一段首句内容“她与母亲一起坐在缝纫机前的回忆如潮水般涌来。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Veronica回忆往昔，平复情绪后与Jane一起修好缝纫机，感受着彼此间牢不可破的纽带。 ②由第二段首句内容“她与母亲一同坐在缝纫机旁的回忆如潮水般涌上心头。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Veronica忆起母亲，向Jane倾诉缝纫机的意义，化解矛盾，缝纫机成为母女理解的桥梁。 2.续写线索： Veronica回忆往昔——与Jan修好缝纫机——向Jane倾诉缝纫机的意义—— 化解矛盾 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.回想起： remember/recall ②.说：say/utter ③.修理：fix/repair/mend 情绪类 ①.沮丧：frustration/depression ②.惊讶：surprise/astonishment/amazement 【点睛】[高分句型1].

Our house was set far back from the road. It felt safe and adventurous with a big back yard and suburban wildlife. The main attraction for me, by far, was the massive tree in the front yard, which rose higher than I could see. We called it Old Oak. An arborist (树艺师) who checked Old Oak for my parents after the snowstorm of 1947 had pronounced it 300 years old. Playing beneath Old Oak, my best friend, Justine, and I made toy horses. From Old Oak’s lowest branch, my dad hung a wooden board on a chain for a swing. The back-and-forth motion of the swing and rhythmic clicking of the chain comforted me. I’d lie under the green umbrella, admiring Old Oak’s height — my protector. Time passed. I was swinging less under the tree and more on the dance floor. Long after my father sold the house, Merry and I visited Old Oak when attending Verona High reunions. Justine called last October. A new owner had bought the property and taken down the tree. I found the real estate (房产) photo. In front of the house lay two huge lengths of trunk. I’d have to act fast to get a piece for Merry and me. The agent involved in the sale said that he would try to talk with the new owner. However, that attempt failed. Then I turned to John Zelenka, an artful arborist, for help. Fortunately, he sent photos of the remaining trunk pieces, contacted the owner, and suggested slices for my woodworking hobbyist son in New Hampshire. On a cold April morning, my husband and I met Zelenka to examine the pieces he’d cut after transporting the trunk. I couldn’t call Merry fast enough. She was excited. Trees give us such gifts from flowers to shade. My relationship with Old Oak has taken on a new form. 4. What do we know about Old Oak? A. It witnessed the author’s birth. B. It failed to survive a snowstorm. C. It was located at the side of a road. D. It was a tall, centuries-old tree. 5. Why did Justine call the author last October? A. To report an incident about Old Oak. B. To inquire about the author’s property. C. To recall their days spent under Old Oak. D. To invite her to attend Verona High reunions. 6. What can we infer about the author from the last two paragraphs? A. She was unable to contact Merry. B. She felt grateful and comforted. C. She decided to start a whole new life. D. She made wooden works out of the pieces. 7. What’s the writing purpose of the text? A. To detail the process of reusing a fallen tree. B. To explore how trees symbolize family traditions. C. To emphasize the importance of protecting ancient trees. D. To share a heartfelt personal experience with a beloved tree. C Today’s journalists face modern challenges. Online media platforms are springing up. And the lowly newspaper and its reporters are fighting money, tech, and distrust issues. Journalism students and teachers must emphasize new skills to keep their profession alive. A trustworthy press helps inform people and monitor all levels of government. That is essential to a nation. Yet this useful establishment is growing increasingly unpopular. According to the University of North Carolina (UNC), newsroom jobs across the country are fewer than half what they were 10 years ago. And on many college campuses, the news about the news is bleak too. Take the Syracuse, New York, student-run newspaper The Daily Orange: It isn’t daily anymore. The paper prints just three times each week. Next year, The Diamondback of the University of Maryland will be online only. Half the newspapers that still exist on paper say they don’t print as many copies. And UNC’s The Daily Tar Heel has cut staff pay and rented cheaper offices to make its budget. Considering the problems in journalism, it’s surprising that the enrollment (注册人数) in college journalism programs is up. The Daily Orange managing editor Catherine Leffert calls the layoffs and cutbacks disheartening. “But what keeps me wanting to be a journalist is seeing the effect that The Daily Orange has,” she says. But journalism educators wonder, “Are we preparing young people for a dying industry?” Years ago, journalism graduates took low-level reporter jobs at newspapers or television stations. That still happens. But today’s jobs more often involve digital editing, social media production, and video streaming. Some universities are taking action. The University of Florida offers a sports media program. Several schools highlight statistics-driven data journalism. The news isn’t all bad. Journalism professor Kathleen Culver says, “When I look at 18–and 20-year-olds in journalism and see what they want to do, I’m optimistic.” Maddy Arrowood is the student editor of The Daily Tar Heel. She says her experience makes her more interested in a journalism career, not less. Her optimism “comes from knowing that people still need news. They still need information.” 8. What mainly contributes to the challenges for today’s journalists? A. More printed newspapers are in great need. B. The newsroom jobs are decreasing worldwide. C. Online newspapers take the place of printed ones. D. Online media platforms are developing quickly. 9. What does the underlined word “bleak” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Depressing. B. Interesting. C. Inspiring. D. Encouraging. 10. How do some universities respond to today’s journalism? A. They reduce student enrollment. B. They offer students specialized programs. C. They prepare students for low-level reporter jobs. D. They encourage students to run their own newspaper. 11. Why is Maddy Arrowood mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To show people’s positive attitudes to journalists. B. To prove the potential of a career in journalism. C To show the popularity of The Daily Tar Heel. D. To prove people’s thirst for the latest news. D Researchers found that they could accurately predict how close two people were based only on their brain activity in response to a series of unfamiliar video clips. Simply put: You and your best friends really do think alike. According to a Dartmouth study finding, friends have similar neural (神经的) responses to real-world stimuli (刺激) and these similarities can be used to predict who your friends are. The study reveals that friends have the most similar neural activity patterns, followed by friends-of-friends who, in turn, have more similar neural activity than people three degrees removed (friends-of-friends-of-friends). Published in Nature Communications, the study is the first of its kind to examine the connections between the neural reaction of people within a real-world social network. “Neural responses to dynamic, naturalistic stimuli, like videos, can give us a window into people’s unlimited, unplanned thought processes as they unfold. Our results suggest that friends process the world around them in exceptionally similar ways,” says lead author Carolyn Parkinson. The study analyzed the friendships or social ties within a group of 280 graduate students. The researchers estimated the social distance between pairs of individuals based on mutually (相互地) reported social ties. Forty-two of the students were asked to watch a range of videos while their neural activity was recorded in a functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) scanner. The videos covered a range of topics and genres, including politics, science, comedy and music videos, for which a range of responses was expected. Each participant watched the same videos in the same order, with the same instructions. The researchers then compared the neural responses pairwise across the set of students to determine if pairs of students who were friends had more similar brain activity than pairs further removed from each other in their social network. The findings revealed that neural response similarity was strongest among friends, and this pattern appeared across brain regions involved in emotional responding and high-level reasoning. Even when the researchers controlled variables, including left-handedness or right-handedness, age, gender, race, and nationality, the analogy in neural activity among friends was still evident. The team also found that fMRI response similarities could be used to predict not only if a pair were friends but also the social distance between the two. 12. What can we learn about the study mentioned in the text? A. It is original and checks people’s neural responses. B. It has yet to win recognition from the academic world. C. It involved more than 200 students watching various videos. D. It required a professional device to analyze participants’ conversation. 13. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. The design of the study. B. The process of the study. C. The findings of the study. D. The innovation of the study. 14. What is the author’s attitude towards the findings of the study? A. Skeptical. B. Supportive. C. Indifferent. D. Neutral. 15. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Neural Responses Shape Social Bonds B. How Videos Connect People’s Minds C. The Science Behind Social Networks. D. Friendship Seen Through Neural Patterns. 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。 Helping Your Teen Understand the Value of Money It seems that there are more things for teens to spend money on than ever.

The machine had been in their family for years—first her mother’s, then hers. Veronica had always taken care of it, just like her mother had. Though it wasn’t in perfect condition, it still worked if used carefully. Veronica remembered the long hours her mother had spent sewing on it when she was growing up, especially during hard times. She also remembered how her mother had taught her to use the machine, her scolding (训斥) sharp and unforgiving, not allowing any mistakes. Now Jane was trying to use it, but she was impatiently pulling at the thread (线), causing the needle to get stuck (卡住) with every attempt. The sound of the machine’s protests — sharp, squeaky, and out of tune—made Veronica uneasy. “Stop pulling so bard,” Veronica said, her voice calm at first, “You’ll break it.” Jane glanced up, a little annoyed. “It’s already broken, Mom.” Veronica felt a knot tighten in her chest. She knew Jane didn’t understand. To her, it was just an old machine. But to Veronica, it was more than that. It was a link to her past. “Stop pulling at it like that,” Veronica said, her voice tense. “It’s not a toy, Jane. You can’t just force it.” Jane looked up, eyes defiant (反抗的). “It’s a piece of junk, Mom. I’m trying to fix it, but it’s useless.” Veronica stood up and grabbed Jane’s hand, forcing her to stop tugging at the machine. Her grip was tight, almost painful, and she shoved (推开) Jane’s hand away. “It’s not junk! You need to be careful with it!” Jane pulled her hand back, her eyes welling up with tears. She didn’t say anything, but the hurt was clear on her face. Veronica watched her for a few seconds, her heart still pounding in her chest. But at that very moment something changed inside her. She opened her mouth to speak, but no words came out at firs — only a breathless, frustrated sigh. A sudden, familiar feeling washed over her, an uncomfortable weight in her chest. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为100左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Her memories of sitting with her mother at the sewing machine flooded back. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
