B Rob Klaric was shopping in Lifeline’ s Mosman store on Sydney’ s north shore when he spotted two framed photos of himself and his wife, which they had lost while moving house more than 30 years ago. The photos were taken in 1988 when he and Leonie, his wife of 35 years, were backpacking across Europe. But it turns out that luck was on their side and they were reunited with their prized possession more than three decades later. “I'm still buzzing with this. I mean, what's the chances?” he told 2GB's Ben Fordham. “I' ve walked into a store and I see these pictures and I thought I was hallucinating (产生幻觉).” The photos hold special meaning for the couple, as it was taken in his mum's backyard when they went to visit her in Europe. “We backpacked across Europe, went to my mother's place in the north of Italy—— so the photos are iconic (标志性的) because it's taken in my mother's backyard and Mum just passed away a few years ago.” A year later, the couple got married, and the year following they had these images framed before they lost them in a move in 1993, when a removal company misplaced the boxes they were packed in. “I still tremble because I thought, ‘this can’ t be real’.” Klaric wondered if his late mother had something to do with the special find. “Because those pictures were right in the middle of the shop, on the floor, you would have never seen it unless you walked through the store. And if it was on the left or the right you wouldn't have seen it. “I think she's looking down from Heaven.” 24. Why do the photos hold special meaning for the couple? A. They were taken when they were backpacking. B. They were taken just in the north of Italy. C. They were taken in Rob's mother's backyard. D. They were taken before they got married. 25. What can we infer from the passage? A. Rob Klaric’ s mother found the photos for them. B. The photos were not easy to notice in the store. C. Rob and his wife have been married for 30 years. D. The photos were just on the left side of the store. 26. How did Rob Klaric feel when he first saw the photos in the store? A. Shocked. B. Disappointed. C. Calm. D. Angry. 27. What can be the best title for the text? A. A Lucky Couple's European Trip B. The High-priced Framed Photos C. A Mysterious Removal Company D. Lost Photos Found After over 30 Years C The Mona Lisa, painted by Leonardo da Vinci from 1503-1506, is the world's most famous painting. Housed behind bulletproof glass in the Louvre Museum, it attracts thousands daily. But when seen up-close, its small size and an ordinary-looking woman may confuse viewers. Undeniably, it’ s a masterpiece. Leonardo’ s use of sfumato, his realistic portrayal, and meticulous details show his extraordinary skills. The soft transitions of light and shadow in the sfumato technique not only give the painting a three-dimensional quality but also contribute to the mystery of Mona Lisa’ s expression. This innovative approach has had a deep influence on the development of art, inspiring countless artists to experiment with similar techniques in their own works. Moreover, the Mona Lisa’ s composition and the way it captures the essence of the human figure have set a benchmark(标杆) for portrait painting. It has become a source of inspiration for artists across different eras, teaching them the importance of not just representing a physical likeness but also conveying the inner spirit of the subject. However, its excellence alone can't account for its fame. External (外部的) factors play a crucial role. It entered the Louvre through the French royal collection. The unknown identity of the sitter added mystery. During the Romantic era of the 19th century, the simple Florentine housewife who may have been portrayed was transformed into a mysterious and captivating (迷人的) figure.Leonardo was also mythologized as a genius then. The 1911 theft and media craze brought global attention. After its recovery, Marcel Duchamp's defacement(恶搞) in 1919 started a trend of using the painting in art and pop-culture. Artists like Andy Warhol followed. Tours to the US in 1963 and Japan in 1974 further raised its status. In conclusion,a combination of the painting's artistic values and numerous historical, cultural, and chance events have made the Mona Lisa an perfect symbol of art. 28. What does the underlined word“meticulous” in the second paragraph probably mean? A. Thorough. B. Careless. C. Rough. D. Simple. 29. What is the significance of the sfumato technique in the Mona Lisa? A. It makes the painting look more two-dimensional. B. It just simplifies the expression of Mona Lisa. C. It was a commonly used technique before Leonardo’ s time. D. It improves quality and adds mystery to the painting. 30. What was the Mona Lisa’ s sitter most likely regarded as before the 19th century? A. A mysterious and charming figure. B. An ordinary Florentine housewife. C. A symbol of the Romantic era. D. A world-famous genius painter. 31. What is the main idea of the text? A. The artistic value of the Mona Lisa. B. The theft and recovery of the Mona Lisa. C. The reasons for the fame of the Mona Lisa. D. The influence of the Mona Lisa on art. D We are often so attracted by the promises of modern digital life that we fail to notice its dangers. It's that feeling of losing control that we get a dozen times a day, from when we tune out a discussion with our phones to when we lose our capacity to appreciate a private moment without feeling forced to document it for a virtual audience. In my first attempt to get control over my technology use, I turned off my phone’ s notifications(通知) and set it to vibrate (振动) rather than ring. Soon after, despite the fact that my device was set to mute (静音) , the act of continually checking for notifications became a habit, and I realized I had created a new problem. I knew then that using only tips and strategies to permanently reform your digital life is difficult. To regain control, we must go beyond modifications and reconstruct our relationship with technology from the ground up. We should go past the notification settings on our devices or apps and consider the more essential topic of why we use so many apps in the first place. What all of us who are struggling with these challenges need is a technology usage philosophy, something that addresses which digital tools we allow into our lives, why, and under what conditions. Cal Newport, who is an associate professor of computer science at Georgetown University, defines DigitalMinimalism as a“philosophy of technology use in which you focus your online time on a small number of carefully selected and optimized (最优化的) activities that strongly support things you value, and then happily miss out on everything else.” Digital minimalists transform technology from a source of distraction into instruments to support a life well lived by working backwards from their inner values to their technology choices. They break the spell (魔咒) that has caused so many people to feel as though they are losing control of their screens by doing so. 32. What problem did the author face after turning off phone notifications? A. The phone still rang sometimes for notifications. B. The phone's vibration was a little too disturbing. C. The author couldn't receive important messages. D. The author constantly checked for notifications. 33. According to the text, what do we need to do to regain control over our digital life? A. Just turn off all notifications. B. Use many more tips and strategies. C. Reconstruct our concept of technology. D. Delete most apps on our devices. 34. What does the text tell us about digital minimalists? A. They don't use digital devices at all. B. They only use digital tools for their values. C. They spend a lot of time on the internet. D. They aren't affected by modern digital life. 35. What is the purpose of the text? A. To give an example. B. To share an experience. C. To explain a concept. D. To compare different ways. 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。 Listen to Yourself Speak Record yourself in a natural conversation; for example, replay a conference call or have a friend interview you on tape. Listen for technical issues, such as filler words, up talk, monotone, and run-on sentences, as well as any habits that sound awkward or uncomfortable. 36 Monitor your speed 37 Try this: Copy a 160-word passage into a word processor. Read the passage aloud (at your standard conversational speed) while recording yourself. How long did it take you? It should be near the minute mark, saysCarol A. Fleming, author of It's the Way You Say It. “Aim for about 155 to 175 words per minute for normal conversation,” she writes. If you' re reciting background information or summarizing something, pick up the pace. If you' re explaining something more technical, slow it down. Cut out filler words If you' re wondering how to be more articulate (清晰地表达), start by focusing on your choice of words.Probably you' ve caught yourself over-using words such as“um,”“like,” and“ahh,”. 38 Replace these fillers with more effective transitions like “Another important consideration is……” and“Let’ s transition to talking about…”. Think before you speak Perhaps the most important trick for more articulate speech is knowing what you' re talking about. Having a clear idea of what you want to say will allow you to organize your thoughts into a coherent(连贯的) structure. 39 Address your weaknesses Once you' ve identified your weaknesses, create a plan for addressing them. 40 For example, focus on removing filler words on Monday, and on completing your sentences on Tuesday. Repeat the process each week until speaking clearly becomes second nature. A. It's that simple. B. Just forget about it. C. Not sure if you' re speaking too fast or too slow? D. Speaking with confidence is the perfect way out. E. One strategy is to tackle a specific issue each day. F. These words can make you sound unsure and inarticulate. G. Identifying the problem is the first step towards solving it. 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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项 (A、B、C和D)中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Jake walked on the cold and windy street.

It 56 (build) on a foundation of strategic government policies,significant investment in research and development, and 57 growing ecosystem of private companies that are world-class innovators. The success of DeepSeek is part of a broader pattern that has been evident in other areas,from high-speed railways to electric vehicles and so on. The lesson is clear: China's technological driving force is far 58 over. If anything, it is speeding up. One of the most striking aspects of DeepSeek’ s success is that it highlights China’ s ability 59 (lead) in technological innovation. For decades, critics argued that China’ s growth 60 (rely) on imitation rather than genuine breakthroughs. However, this view has become increasingly outdated. 61 China once depended on adapting foreign technologies, it is now a global leader in AI and green energy solutions. The country is not 62 (mere) catching up; in many areas, it is setting the pace. DeepSeek’ s achievements reflect a larger trend in China’ s approach to innovation. The government has madeAI a national priority, 63 (support) start-ups, universities and research institutions with significant funding.This ecosystem promotes breakthroughs that position China at the forefront of new 64 (industry). GivenChina’ s strategic focus on quantum computing, biotechnology, robotics and space 65 (explore), one should expect more path-breaking innovations in the near future. 第四部分 写作 (共两节，满分40分) 第一节 (满分15分) 每年三月份最后一周的星期一，为全国中小学生“安全教育日”。假设你是学校安全宣传小组的成员李华，请你以“提高安全意识，学会自我保护”为主题，写一封倡议书，号召同学们关注日常生活中的安全问题。倡议书应包括以下内容：1.安全意识的重要性；2.具体的安全防范措施；3.呼吁大家提高警惕，学会自我保护。注意：1.写作词数应为80个左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear fellow students, As a member of the School Safety Promotion Team, I urge everyone to pay more attention to safety in daily life. ______________ Sincerely,Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Mrs. Peabody gave the class a writing assignment. “Write about your summer vacation,” she said. “Be as creative as you can. But,” the strict woman added, as she always did, “make sure you use proper spelling and grammar.” She magically knew which students had read the real assignment. Well, that night Jim didn't want to write a stupid essay about his summer vacation. It would be a dog, a water park, two weeks of camp, his paper route. Boring… So he gave up on the assignment and wrote what he wanted to. Not an essay at all but a short story. Science fiction. It was about a distant planet that didn't have summer—— it was spring all the time. And it didn't have vacations, either. The aliens on the planet worked 24 hours a day. The next morning he handed in the story but that night he lay awake until three a. m., thinking“Why did I do that? English is my favourite class. I should not have ignored the assignment.” Maybe it'd take Mrs. Peabody a few days to grade the essays. He’ d beg her for a chance to write another one, the sort she wanted. But when he got to class the next morning it turned out that Mrs. Peabody had read and graded the essays. The teacher would pass back their summer vacation essays soon, but before that she said that since they put words for other people to read, they had to learn to take criticism. “I'm in trouble,” Jim thought. Mrs. Peabody continued, “Almost everyone in class wrote an essay about his or her summer vacation… Almost everyone.” This is bad, Jim thought. I'm getting an F,I know it. “But,” the teacher said, “one student decided he didn't feel like doing that.” Jim glanced up long enough to see her eyes focused on him. This is worse than an F…I'm in note-to-the-parents territory now. 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。 Then Mrs. Peabody looked away from Jim and studied the rest of the class.___________________________ Hands trembling, Jim walked to the front of the classroom proudly. __________________________ 英语（四）参考答案 1～5 BCAAB 6～10 ABACC 11～15 ABABA 16～20 CBBCA 21～25 ADBCB 26～30 ADADB 31～35 CDCBC 36～40 GCFAE 41～45 BACCD 46～50 BABDA 51～55 CDCAB 56．has been built/is built 57．a 58．from 59．to lead 60．relied 61．While/Although/Though 62．merely 63．supporting 64．industries 65．exploration 第一节 Dear fellow students, As a member of the School Safety Promotion Team, I urge everyone to pay more attention to safety in daily life. Safety is crucial. Being aware of potential risks and knowing how to respond can significantly reduce accidents and ensure our well-being. Here are some practical steps we can take: First, practice road safety by avoiding distractions like phones while walking or cycling. Second, protect your online privacy by using strong passwords and being cautious about sharing personal information on social media. Additionally, familiarize yourself with emergency procedures, such as fire evacuation routes and basic first aid. In conclusion, safety is a shared responsibility. Let’s raise awareness and take action to protect ourselves and others. Stay alert, be prepared, and work together for a safer future. Sincerely, Li Hua 第二节 Then Mrs. Peabody looked away from Jim and studied the rest of the class. “All of your essays read as if they were written in your sleep. It’s clear to me that you didn’t take the assignment seriously and none of you spent more than ten minutes on it. Just one of you had the courage to be as imaginative as I asked you to be. Jim Martin is the only one who got an A on the assignment. Now I’m going to ask him to come up here and read his story to you as an example of thinking independently and being creative.” Then, being Mrs. Peabody, she added strictly, “though he should’ve a little more attention to proper spelling and grammar.” Hands trembling, Jim walked to the front of the classroom proudly. He walked as if he were climbing to the summit of Mount Everest or were the first person to step onto the surface of Mars. He read as if he were delivering a speech to the whole country as president. What a small thing really, he would often reflect as he walked through the crowded hallway as an English teacher himself many years later, just a single assignment. Just a single assignment! But what a difference that moment had made to him! 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$一、听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。做题时请先将答案标在试卷上，录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。请听听力部分第一节。第一节听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项，并标在试卷的相应位置。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。例如现在你有5秒钟的时间看试卷上的例题，你将听到以下内容。Excuse me, can you tell me how much the shirt is?
