The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest playwright in English literature, is celebrated at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust. You can visit his childhood home, explore exhibits about his life and works, and experience live performances in the RoyalShakespeare Theatre. You can also visit Anne Hathaway's house, where Shakespeare courted her. Location: Stratford-upon-Avon, England Reading suggestion: Macbeth The Louisa May Alcott's Orchard House Discover the literary legacy(遗产) of Louisa May Alcott, author of Little Women, at her former home, Orchard House. Explore the rooms where Alcott penned her famous novel and learn about the inspirations behind her beloved characters. There have been no major changes to the house, so the rooms look much the same. Location: Concord, the US Reading suggestion: Little Women The Hans Christian Andersen Museum Enjoy the fairy tales(童话故事) that have attracted generations at the Hans ChristianAndersen Museum. Explore the life and imagination of the Danish author behind his short stories like The Little Mermaid. From the moment you step into the building, the exhibition takes you deeper into Andersen's fairy tales. Location: Odense, Denmark Suggested reading: The Little Mermaid The Pablo Neruda House Bury yourself in the poetry of Pablo Neruda, the Chilean poet. The Pablo NerudaHouse showcases his collection of art, poetry, and personal artifacts, offering a poetic journey through his life and creative expressions. I wish I knew Spanish well enough to read Neruda's works in his native language. Location: Santiago, Chile Suggested reading: Twenty Love Poems: And a Song of Despair 21. What can visitors do at the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust? A. Watch live shows. B. Learn to write plays. C. Meet Anne Hathaway. D. Read drafts of Macbeth. 22. Which of the works was probably written in Spanish? A. Macbeth. B. Little Women. C. The Little Mermaid. D. Twenty Love Poems: And a Song of Despair. 23. Who is the text intended for? A. Art reviewers. B. Theatre performers. C. Literature enthusiasts. D. Architecture designers. B Art lovers travel worldwide to see their favorite paintings in real life. Surely, they may have seen them dozens of times online or in books, but experiencing the original artwork is an entirely different feeling. Scientists working with the Mauritshuis museum in theNetherlands have found that the brain is stimulated much more strongly when people look at art in person. The stimulation is ten times stronger than when they view a reproduction(复制品), such as a postcard or poster. Martine Gosselink, director of the Mauritshuis, said, “You become mentally richer when you see things because you make connections in your brain.” For the study, 20volunteers between 21 and 65 years of age were asked to look at five artworks in the museum, as well as some reproductions. The real paintings sparked (引发)a strong positive response in a part of the brain connected with self-reflection and personal memories. And the famous Girl with a Pearl Earring inspired the strongest reactions in the volunteers’brains. “You look at the girl's eyes, then at her mouth, and then at the pearl. And then you look again!” the museum wrote in a statement. “Why can't you take your eyes off her?Humans’ attention is naturally focused on faces. When you look at someone’ s face— even if it's someone in a painting— your brain naturally tries to understand that person's emotion.” While people would naturally look at someone's eyes and mouth, other figure paintings used in the study didn't encourage much additional looking. For example, Gerrit van Honthorst's The Violin Player didn't spark a very strong reaction. However, it still got a positive response stimulus, receiving 0.41 out of 1 in real life, but just 0.05 in a reproduction. While it has been proven now, Gosselink had long doubted that nothing compares to standing before the real thing, no matter how many times you' ve seen it elsewhere or how well you think you know it. “We all feel the difference, but is it real?” she recalls asking her partners a year ago. “Today we can really say that it is true.” 24. What can be drawn from the experiment on volunteers? A. Famous paintings attract more visitors. B. Age greatly influences brain responses to art. C. Reproductions inspire more personal reflection. D. Viewing real art strengthens emotional responses. 25. What are visitors likely to explore when viewing Girl with a Pearl Earring? A. The feelings reflected in the girl's face. B. The balance of typical facial features. C. The painting's historical meaning. D. The girl's background setting. 26. What does the comparison between figure paintings suggest? A. They convey similar cultural messages. B. Their artistic techniques are special. C. Their emotional effects can differ. D. They can be easily reproduced. 27. What is the main idea of Gosselink's reflection? A. Artistic taste changes over time. B. Experiencing art in person is unique. C. Art appreciation requires deep knowledge. D. Repeated viewing deepens understanding. C It's too early to name any activity“The Sport of 2025”, but if you asked me to do it today, I would give the title to Hyrox, which is an individual but interactive activity. Fitness fans run eight kilometres and stop after each to perform exercises such as sled pushes or burpees(下蹲后伸腿运动). The faster you complete the course, the higher your score is in the Hyrox worldwide rankings. Many surveys indicate that people are exercising more now than in previous years. It's individual fitness pursuits that are driving the rise. I spent the first half of my 29-year-old life as a hockey (曲棍球) player and the second as a distance runner. I long for the common goal of team sports, but I also value the responsibility and clear results that come from working toward my own running targets. So it's odd to me that people prefer individual fitness pursuits to team sports. One common explanation is that organized sports haven't bounced back since the pandemic (疫情) a few years ago. When people learned to exercise with less money,equipment, space and time, they kept individual activities rather than followed an organization. Meanwhile, there are now fitness apps for users to tailor works based on their heart rates and sleep quality. The rise of wearables has also got some of us addicted to our own exercise routines. However, an obvious problem for individual sports is loneliness. Engaging in team sports is a proven way to ease it, which boosts our ability to interact and form meaningful relationships. Well, Hyrox is a combined activity: an individual sport that we do with others.Each competition follows the same scoring system, which allows people to compare their results with others around the world. It's the type that's come to dominate the fitness world.And, according to Guy Faulkner, a professor at the University of British Columbia, if it gets people out of the door, then it's a good one. “The most effective form of sport,” he said, “is the form you will sustain.” 28. What is the key feature of Hyrox? A. It requires teamwork and shared plans. B. It is organized to find sports partners. C. It skips physical challenges for leisure. D. It is self-paced but ranked with others. 29. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Negative effects of the pandemic. B. Methods of choosing wearables C. Reasons for the shift to individual fitness. D. Tailored workouts with fitness apps. 30. How does Hyrox address the problem with individual sports? A. By targeting people afraid of public interactions. B. By connecting individuals with shared experiences. C. By prioritizing personal achievements over group goals. D. By offering a kind of treatment for mental health issues. 31. What does Guy Faulkner consider the most effective sport? A. Sport that requires the least effort.B. Sport that involves more people. C. Sport that one will do consistently.D. Sport that provides the quickest results. A third of the Arctic's tundra (北极冻土), forests and wetlands have become a source of carbon emissions, a new study has found, as global heating ends thousands of years of carbon storage. For thousands of years, Arctic land ecosystems have acted as a deep-freeze, holding potential emissions in the tundra. But ecosystems in the region are releasing more CO₂ into the atmosphere with rising temperatures, a study published in Nature Climate Change concluded. More than 30% of the region was a source of CO₂, according to the analysis, rising to40% when emissions from wildfires were included. By using data from 200 study sites between 1990 and 2020, the research demonstrates how the Arctic's tundra, forests and wetlands are being transformed by rapid warming. The shift is occurring despite the Arctic becoming greener. “One place where I work inAlaska when the tundra unfreezes, the plants that absorb CO₂ grow more, so you can sometimes get an uptick in carbon storage,” Sue Natalia, the lead researcher said. “But the tundra continues to unfreeze and the microbes(微生物) take over. You can visually see the changes in the landscape. There is a growing concern about the natural processes that regulate the Earth's climate, which are being affected by rising temperatures. Together, the planet's oceans,forests, soils and other natural carbon sinks absorb about half of all human emissions, but there are signs that these sinks are under stress. The Arctic ecosystem has been gathering carbon for thousands of years, helping cool the atmosphere. In a warming world, the researchers say, its carbon cycle is beginning to change and needs better monitoring. Dr Anna Virkkala, the author of the study, said, “The carbon in the Arctic soil is close to half of the Earth's soil carbon pool, much more than in the atmosphere. This huge pool should ideally stay in the ground. But now, rising temperatures are speeding the breakdown of plant and animal remains, which releases stored carbon back into the air as greenhouse gases like CO₂, creating a cycle that fuels even more warming. 32. What's the main reason for the release of carbon from Arctic soils? A. Tundra defrosting. B. Wildfire erupting. C. Tree over-cutting. D. Wetland disappearing. 33. What does the underlined word“uptick” in paragraph 4 mean? A. Boost. B. Loss. C. Limit. D. Release. 34. What can we infer about the Arctic's soil carbon pool according to Dr Anna Virkkala? A. It has less carbon than the air. B. It ought to be stored in the tundra. C. It can break down organic matter. D. It is less affected by global warming. 35. What is the main idea of the text? A. Arctic greening cuts carbon emissions. B. More carbon is being released in Arctic. C. Arctic carbon storage is growing rapidly. D. Extreme climate makes Arctic inhabitable. 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。 Make Time to Write Since a new year has started, time lies before us like a blank page, waiting to be filled with writing. We are all busy people, and we sometimes feel that life is working against our writing ambitions and pushing them aside. Yet the most productive writers are the busiest.36 Overcoming self-doubt and fear is the key to unlocking your potential. 37Most of the time, the real reason why we avoid writing is that we' re afraid of failing. It's simpler to complain about being too busy than to face our fears. To solve this problem, we can try to understand what we' re scared of, deal with it, and then focus on moving forward. A simple way to find more time to write is to give yourself a clear goal. It needs to beSMART: specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-bound. 38 If you successfully meet your target, you could give yourself a small reward: buy a new notebook or pen, go for a long walk, or take a day off from writing and just do something completely different. 39 As Henry Ford once said, “If you do what you’ ve always done, you’ ll get what you' ve always got!” This could mean writing with a notebook and pen rather than the computer you also use for work. Try varying your approach and see if it helps. Above all, you should prioritize writing over other things. Most successful writers have caring responsibilities, occupations outside the home, and the necessary everyday tasks they all need to complete. Yet they still manage to write. 40 So, if you want to make 2025 the year when you get your writing project done, look at how you use your time with a fresh eye. A. Then how can we make sure we get our writing done in 2025? B. So do we need to pursue writing to improve our mental health? C. For example, writing 1,500 words in a week might be realistic. D. Do something different if your current approach isn't working. E. What they have in common is that they treat writing as important. F. Sitting in front of your computer doesn't mean the writing will flow. G. We all have a voice in our head that keeps telling us we can't succeed. 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) 阅读下列短文，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。 “How does the yard look?” my father asked, with his eyes shining.

But inside the classroom, Tom was feeling anything but cheerful. He had just received his test results, and they were far from what he had hoped for. His heart sank as he stared at the disappointing marks. Each digit seemed to laugh at his efforts,making his stomach churn(翻腾) with frustration. Tom had always been a diligent student, and this failure came as a huge blow. He couldn't understand how he had performed so poorly when he had put in so much effort. He had spent countless late-night hours poring over textbooks, memorizing vocabulary and doing extra exercises. He felt defeated and wondered if he was just not good enough. Doubt ate away at his confidence, making him question his abilities. As he walked home, his steps were slow and heavy. He couldn't help but think about what had gone wrong. He replayed the moments leading up to the test, trying to figure out where he had made mistakes. Maybe he hadn't studied the right way? Or perhaps he had been too nervous during the exam? These questions kept hovering in his mind. When he got home, Tom decided to talk to his elder brother, Jack. Jack was always wise and had a way of making things seem better. Tom poured out his heart, telling Jack about his failure and how discouraged he felt, his voice tinged with sadness. Jack listened patiently, nodding from time to time. The he said, “Tom, failure is not the end. It's an opportunity to learn and grow. Every great success story is filled with failures along the way. Figure out what you need to do differently next time. Analyze your mistakes and use them as stepping stones to improve.” Jack then pulled out his own test papers with bad grades years ago, sharing his own experiences of failure in school, which gave Tome hope and a new perspective. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Tom took his brother's words to heart.

One possible version Dear Eiditor, As I took part in the summer camp about health and lifestyle choices, I started to analyze them seriously, especially playing games, the unhealthy way I relaxed myself, and its effects on my life. A month ago, I felt stressed out and always relaxed with computer games day and night.Playing was fun, but I felt even more worn out afterwards! After the camp, I realized that it was time to adjust my lifestyle by finding other ways to relax. Rock climbing and playing basketball were the things I thought of doing instead. Though it was a big struggle,I made it with great determination. After a month of trying out, I feel more energetic now. I believe that I can change myself for the better. Yours truly, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 67. One possible version: Tom took his brother's words to heart. He spent the next few days going over his test,identifying his weak areas and making a plan to address them. He started studying with a new approach, asking for help when he needed it and practicing more. A few weeks later, another test was announced. Tom was nervous but also determined. As he sat down to take the test, he took a deep breath and reminded himself of what he had learned from his previous failure.Just as Tom was finishing up the test, the teacher announced that time was up. Tom handed in his test paper with a mixture of nervousness and hope. Days later, the results of the examination were announced. Tom couldn't believe his eyes.His name was at the top of the list with a much-improved score. A huge smile spread across his face. He felt a sense of pride and accomplishment that he had never felt before. He realized that his failure had been a valuable lesson. It had taught him perseverance, the importance of learning from mistakes, and the power of hard work. He rushed home to tell his brother the good news. Jack was proud of him and reminded him that this was just the beginning. From now on, Tom knew that whenever he faced a setback, he would look on it as an opportunity to learn and grow. 附：听力录音文本 Text 1 安慰即将面试的人 M: You seem a little nervous. W: Yes.
