While studying for a fashion design degree at an art academy, she discovered her love for make-up in her free moments. In 2020, “the Palace Museum covered in snow” became a hot topic on social media. “It was my first time observing such a scene. An idea came upon me then: Were those cultural relics quietly appreciating the snow inside the palace?” Huang said. She began imagining what the relics might look like in human form. So she got colors and elements from these artifacts (手工艺品) for her make-up. She skillfully recreated the features of an artifact on her face, bringing it to life. Her designs quickly gained popularity. “This approach not only allows people to appreciate the make-up but also helps them connect with the liveliness of our cultural heritage.” Huang said. Some have expressed how her make-up designs have introduced them to many little-known artifacts. One follower said, “You have found and shared the valuable things from museums, allowing us to see and appreciate the artifacts that were once lost among many exhibits during our hurried visits.” Huang has noticed that an increasing number of young people show a deep appreciation for the traditional culture. “It’s necessary for the ways museum culture is passed on to keep pace with the changing times to avoid culture loss. Young generations are responsible for carrying forward the culture, in whatever positive and productive manners,” Huang said. The total number of Chinese museums nationwide reached 6, 565 in 2022, ranking among the top in the world. In the past, many considered museum visits boring because of a lack of awareness of their wealth of collections. The recommendations by social media influencers and TV programs have led to a growing number of people realizing that museums offer a wide variety of interesting things. While not everyone may be interested in objects and history, the quest for beauty is born among people. 36. What did the snowy Palace Museum inspire Huang to do? A. Start a career in fashion design. B. Present artifacts in snowy landscapes. C. Create make-up to show artifacts’ beauty. D. Teach people to do make-up on social media. 37. Why do Huang’s designs become popular? A. They follow the latest beauty topics. B. They allow people to imagine missing artifacts. C. They satisfy people’s curiosity about artwork design. D. They make museum artworks more approachable. 38. What is Huang’s advice for young generations? A. Replacing museum trips with online visits. B. Spreading museum culture in inventive ways. C. Keeping artifacts original for scientific research. D. Connecting museum culture with business activities. 39. Which of the following can best describe Huang? A. Friendly and positive. B. Independent and serious. C. Creative and thoughtful. D. Talented and knowledgeable. 40. What is the last paragraph intended to tell us? A. Museum collections face the challenge of technology. B. Media influences have increased museums’ attraction. C. Museums are changing practices to attract the young. D. Most people think highly of museum objects and history. 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. B 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Rainie Huang从故宫雪景获得灵感，用化妆展现文物之美，其设计受欢迎，她还建议年轻人创新传承博物馆文化。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“‘It was my first time observing such a scene. An idea came upon me then: Were those cultural relics quietly appreciating the snow inside the palace?’ Huang said. She began imagining what the relics might look like in human form.

They are often taught through Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) programs, which encourage student involvement (参与), offered in K-12 schools in 27 states. But they are also a by-product of theater classes, according to a recent study. The study followed children aged 5 to 18 over six years and found increases in communication skills across ages. The longer the kids spent on the theater classes, the more they gained in 21st-century skills, like communication, creativity, imagination, and problem-solving, says Thalia Goldstein, the study’s co-author. Theater involves different learning — getting up on your feet to take in information, rather than sitting at a desk. “When you put something in your body, it lasts longer, and you remember it longer,” says Kathryn Dawson, associate professor of theater at the University of Texas at Austin. Theater provides an awareness of space. And it enables more than expressions with words. For children with autism (孤独症), theater techniques increase eye attention and inspire conversation. This is where the arts level the playing field for children of different abilities; they can participate in meaningful ways where language is not a necessary skill. Sara Williams, Charlotte’s mother, cites theater as the foundation (基础) for her daughter’s self-awareness. Charlotte began drama classes at age 5. At 13, she is not afraid to speak publicly or join the student council; she listens and has confidence. “Kids go to these classes and come home feeling excited, like they have achieved something,” Williams says. And not just the outgoing kids — for the shy, theater opens them up. A theater class provides a supportive environment, free from unkind judgment. You can keep your personality, and unlike in sports, you’re not competing with anyone. “Theater is about telling stories. It is one of the best ways to help young people get to know themselves,” Dawson says. 41. What does the recent study find out? A. Theater classes contribute greatly to children’s social skills. B. Communication skills matter to children’s development. C. Theater classes are more effective than SEL programs. D. Children’s interest in theater classes varies with age. 42. How does Kathryn Dawson explain the impact of theater learning? A. It focuses on improving one’s artistic skills. B. It raises children’s awareness of confidence. C. It strengthens a sense of community among children. D. It promotes active learning through physical involvement. 43. What can we infer from the third paragraph? A.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了戏剧课程对提升美国儿童的沟通能力及其他21世纪技能的积极作用。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“But they are also a by-product of theater classes, according to a recent study. The study followed children aged 5 to 18 over six years and found increases in communication skills across ages. The longer the kids spent on the theater classes, the more they gained in 21st-century skills, like communication, creativity, imagination, and problem-solving, says Thalia Goldstein, the study’s co-author.(但根据最近的一项研究，戏剧课也能带来沟通技巧的提升。这项研究对5岁至18岁的儿童进行了为期六年的跟踪调查，发现各个年龄段的孩子在沟通技巧方面都有所提高。该研究的合著者塔利亚・戈德斯坦表示，孩子们上戏剧课的时间越长，他们在21世纪所需的技能方面的收获就越多，比如沟通能力、创造力、想象力和解决问题的能力)”可知，最近的研究表明戏剧课也是提升沟通技巧（属于社交技能）的一个途径，孩子们上戏剧课的时间越长，他们在沟通、创造力、想象力和解决问题等21世纪所需技能方面的收获就越多。由此可知，戏剧课对孩子们的社交技能有很大的促进作用。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Theater involves different learning — getting up on your feet to take in information, rather than sitting at a desk. “When you put something in your body, it lasts longer, and you remember it longer,” says Kathryn Dawson, associate professor of theater at the University of Texas at Austin. Theater provides an awareness of space. And it enables more than expressions with words. (戏剧涉及到不同的学习方式——即站起身来获取信息，而不是坐在书桌前。德克萨斯大学奥斯汀分校的戏剧副教授凯瑟琳・道森说：“当你用身体去感受某些东西时，它在你记忆中留存的时间会更长，你也会记得更久。”戏剧能让人们对空间产生认知，而且它所带来的不仅仅是语言表达)”可知，凯瑟琳・道森认为当你通过身体去感受某些东西时，它在记忆中留存的时间会更长，而且戏剧学习涉及到不同于坐在书桌前的学习方式，是站起身来获取信息。由此可知，通过身体的参与来促进积极的学习。故选D。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“For children with autism (孤独症), theater techniques increase eye attention and inspire conversation. This is where the arts level the playing field for children of different abilities; they can participate in meaningful ways where language is not a necessary skill. (对于患有孤独症的儿童来说，戏剧技巧能提高他们的眼神注意力，并激发他们与人交谈。这就是艺术为不同能力的孩子创造平等机会的地方；他们可以以有意义的方式参与其中，而语言并非是必备的技能)”可知，对于患有孤独症的儿童，戏剧技巧能提高他们的眼神注意力并激发对话。而且艺术为不同能力的孩子创造了平等的机会，即使语言不是必备技能，他们也能以有意义的方式参与其中。这说明戏剧技巧对不同能力的孩子，包括孤独症儿童都有好处。由此推知，戏剧技巧使广泛的儿童群体受益。故选C。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“And not just the outgoing kids — for the shy, theater opens them up. A theater class provides a supportive environment, free from unkind judgment. You can keep your personality, and unlike in sports, you’re not competing with anyone.(而且不只是外向的孩子如此——对于害羞的孩子来说，戏剧也能让他们敞开心扉。戏剧课提供了一个充满支持的环境，没有恶意的评判。你可以保持自己的个性，而且与体育运动不同的是，你无需与任何人竞争)”可知，对于害羞的孩子来说，戏剧能让他们敞开心扉。戏剧课提供了一个充满支持的环境，没有恶意的评判，在这个环境里他们可以保持自己的个性，无需与人竞争。这表明戏剧课为害羞的孩子提供了一个舒适的自我表达的空间。由此推知，根据所举例子，戏剧能给害羞的孩子带来一个舒适的自我表达的空间。故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章开篇指出戏剧课能提升孩子的沟通技巧，接着阐述了戏剧学习通过身体参与促进积极学习，对包括孤独症儿童在内的不同能力的孩子都有益处，还提到戏剧课为害羞的孩子提供了自我表达的舒适空间，最后强调戏剧是帮助年轻人了解自己的最佳方式之一。整体围绕戏剧教育对孩子自我成长方面的积极影响展开。由此可知，选项A“Theater education shapes children’s self-growth(戏剧教育塑造孩子的自我成长)”最适合作本文标题。故选A。 D While Alzheimer’s disease, which usually damages memory, thinking, and behavior, has no known treatment, early detection (发觉) may allow for improved management of the disease, thus possibly slowing its progression and improving the quality of life for those affected. Researchers have now created a simple lightweight headband device for the early judgment of the disease. This new device was made possible through a joint effort of researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and Washington University in St. Louis. Individuals can wear this headband while they sleep, and the device will continuously monitor brainwaves, enabling the detection of Alzheimer’s disease well before the condition starts to impact performance and memory. Researchers examined the effectiveness of a headband in monitoring brain health in a study which included more than 205 elderly individuals. Their method focused on detecting brainwaves that appear during memory processing in deep sleep and using them to understand whether there are problems with the brain’s memory. The team identified changes in neural patterns (神经模式) that could be linked to the buildup of two types of proteins (蛋白原), which serve as signs of disease progression in the brain of the individual with Alzheimer’s. “We could identify the levels of proteins in people’s brainwave patterns before they experienced any symptoms (症状). Detecting Alzheimer’s disease at an early stage in people who don’t show symptoms can help with the planning of care and increase the effectiveness of medications and other treatment approaches,” explained Brice McConnell, assistant professor of neurology at the University of Colorado. Previous medical studies have pointed to a connection between the lack of sleep and Alzheimer’s. However, how poor sleep quality influences Alzheimer’s development or even how the disease affects sleep remains ambiguous. While early detection of this disease is beneficial, it is not always straightforward mainly because the exact cause of Alzheimer’s disease is not fully understood. Therefore, headbands like this one are still far from becoming commercially or clinically available. Despite this, the team believes that this simple wearable device might one day make a significant difference to the early detection of Alzheimer’s. 46. What is the function of the new device? A. To record individuals’ stress levels. B. To identify early signs of Alzheimer’s. C. To reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer’s. D. To improve the sleep quality of patients. 47. How does the new device work? A. By using memory tasks to help patients learn. B. By controlling the number of proteins in the brain. C. By measuring brain activities to detect health issues. D. By tracking changes in the sleepers’ breathing patterns. 48. What is considered a possible benefit of the device for individuals without symptoms? A. It helps lengthen their time of deep sleep. B. It enables timely management of the disease. C. It gradually stops the development of Alzheimer’s. D. It deepens the connection between doctors and patients. 49. What does the underlined word “ambiguous” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Misleading. B. Familiar. C. Unclear. D. Opposite. 50. What is the team’s attitude towards the application of the device? A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Surprised. D. Worried. 【答案】46. B 47. C 48. B 49. C 50. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一种新型的轻型头带设备，用于早期检测阿尔茨海默病。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Researchers have now created a simple lightweight headband device for the early judgment of the disease. This new device was made possible through a joint effort of researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and Washington University in St. Louis. Individuals can wear this headband while they sleep, and the device will continuously monitor brainwaves, enabling the detection of Alzheimer’s disease well before the condition starts to impact performance and memory.(研究人员现已开发出一款轻便简易的头带装置，用于该疾病的早期诊断。这一创新设备由科罗拉多大学安舒茨医学院和圣路易斯华盛顿大学的研究团队联合研制而成。使用者可在睡眠时佩戴该头带，设备将持续监测脑电波活动，从而在阿尔茨海默病尚未影响认知功能和记忆能力之前实现早期检测。)”可知，这种新设备的功能是识别老年痴呆症的早期症状。故选B项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Individuals can wear this headband while they sleep, and the device will continuously monitor brainwaves, enabling the detection of Alzheimer’s disease well before the condition starts to impact performance and memory.(使用者可在睡眠时佩戴该头带，设备将持续监测脑电波活动，从而在阿尔茨海默病尚未影响认知功能和记忆能力之前实现早期检测。)”可知，新设备通过检测大脑活动来检测健康问题。故选C项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段的句子“Detecting Alzheimer’s disease at an early stage in people who don’t show symptoms can help with the planning of care and increase the effectiveness of medications and other treatment approaches.(在没有症状的人群中早期检测阿尔茨海默病有助于护理计划的制定，并提高药物和其他治疗方法的有效性。)”可知，对于无症状个体，早期检测阿尔茨海默病有助于及时管理病情。故选B项。 【49题详解】 词句猜测题。该段第一句“Previous medical studies have pointed to a connection between the lack of sleep and Alzheimer’s.(之前的医学研究已经指出了睡眠不足和老年痴呆症之间的联系。)”指出，睡眠不足和老年痴呆症之间有联系，由随后的转折副词However和该段最后的句子“because the exact cause of Alzheimer’s disease is not fully understood(因为阿尔茨海默病的确切病因尚不完全清楚)”可知，人们应该是不清楚睡眠质量差如何影响阿尔茨海默氏症的发展和这种疾病是如何影响睡眠的，所以划线单词的意义为“不确定的；模糊的”，与unclear意义一致。故选C项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的句子“Despite this, the team believes that this simple wearable device might one day make a significant difference to the early detection of Alzheimer’s.(尽管如此，该团队认为这种简单的可穿戴设备可能有一天会对阿尔茨海默病的早期检测产生重大影响。)”可知，尽管这种设备尚未商业化或临床应用，但研究团队认为这种简单的可穿戴设备可能有一天会对阿尔茨海默病的早期检测产生重大影响。所以团队认为可穿戴设备是有希望的。故选A项。 第Ⅱ卷 第一节：阅读表达 Thomas Moore was a 10-year-old boy from Maryland. He decided on his own to do something extremely thoughtful for children suffering from cancer. It all started when Thomas saw his mom watching a video about a 5-year-old girl with cancer who had lost all of her hair because of chemotherapy (化疗). Moved by the girl’s story, Thomas decided to do something to make her happy. After thinking about how the little girl lost her hair, he considered that growing his hair and then donating it would be the best way to help her and other children like her. When his hair grew, he took good care of it so that it would be strong and healthy for the day when he had to cut it. His hair became so long and thick that it looked as if he had enough hair for two wigs (假发). It was time for Thomas to cut his hair. His aunt Amber was the one who caught the special moment on video. She and his parents couldn’t have been more pleased with him for what he did. Although it was a small act, not everyone would be willing to do what he did. And the fact that he decided to do it on his own at such a young age showed his good character. Thanks to his hair, the girl and another young cancer patient were able to feel like they still lived a normal life before. Amber’s video of Thomas made pretty big waves on social media platforms, and many people praised him for his brave and selfless act. 51. Why did Thomas Moore feel sorry for the 5-year-old girl?

(no more than 12 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 53. How did Thomas Moore’s parents and aunt feel about his act? (no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 54. What does the underlined part in the last paragraph mean? (no more than 5 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 55. What can we learn from Thomas Moore’s story? (no more than 20 words) _______________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】51. Because he saw her lose all hair due to chemotherapy. 52. He grew his hair long and then donated it. 53. They were very pleased. 54. became popular. 55. Even a small selfless act can make a big difference and show good character. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Thomas在看到一个5岁患癌女孩因化疗失去头发的视频后，深受触动，决定通过自己留长发并捐赠的方式帮助她和其他类似的孩子。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“He decided on his own to do something extremely thoughtful for children suffering from cancer. It all started when Thomas saw his mom watching a video about a 5-year-old girl with cancer who had lost all of her hair because of chemotherapy (化疗). Moved by the girl’s story, Thomas decided to do something to make her happy.(他自己决定为患癌症的儿童做一些非常体贴的事情。这一切都始于托马斯看到他的妈妈在看一个视频，视频中一个5岁的癌症女孩因为化疗失去了所有的头发。托马斯被这个女孩的故事感动了，他决定做点什么让她开心。)”可知，托马斯·摩尔会同情这个5岁的小女孩是因为他看到她因为化疗掉光了头发。故填Because he saw her lose all hair due to chemotherapy. 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“After thinking about how the little girl lost her hair, he considered that growing his hair and then donating it would be the best way to help her and other children like her.(在想到小女孩是如何失去头发的之后，他认为让自己的头发长出来并捐献出来是帮助她和其他像她一样的孩子的最好方式。)”可知，托马斯通过留长发并把头发捐出去来帮助那个女孩。故填He grew his hair long and then donated it. 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“It was time for Thomas to cut his hair. His aunt Amber was the one who caught the special moment on video. She and his parents couldn’t have been more pleased with him for what he did.(托马斯该剪头发了。他的姨妈安布尔拍下了这一特殊时刻的视频。她和他的父母对他所做的一切感到非常满意。)”可知，托马斯·摩尔的父母和姨妈对他的行为感到高兴。故填They were very pleased. 【54题详解】 词句猜测题。根据下文的“many people praised him for his brave and selfless act(许多人称赞他的勇敢和无私的行为)”可知，肯定有许多人看了他的视频，也就是说他的视频在社交媒体平台很受欢迎，所以划线短语的意义为“受欢迎”。故填became popular. 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“Although it was a small act, not everyone would be willing to do what he did. And the fact that he decided to do it on his own at such a young age showed his good character.(虽然这是一个小举动，但并不是每个人都愿意做他所做的事。事实上，他在这么年轻的时候就决定自己做这件事，这显示了他良好的品格。)”和最后一段的句子“Thanks to his hair, the girl and another young cancer patient were able to feel like they still lived a normal life before.(多亏了他的头发，这个女孩和另一个年轻的癌症患者能够感觉他们仍然过着正常的生活。)”可知，即使是一个小小的无私的行为也能产生很大的影响，并能表现出一个人良好的品格。故填Even a small selfless act can make a big difference and show good character. 第二节：书面表达(满分25分) 56. 假设你是晨光中学学生会主席李华，为响应我市”低碳生活”号召，学生会向全校学生发出了”告别纸巾，使用手帕”（Using Hankies Instead of Tissues）的倡议。请你代表学生会，用英语写一封倡议书，内容包括： (1)使用纸巾的弊端（如需要砍伐树木、造成资源浪费和白色污染等）； (2)使用手帕的好处（如可循环使用、节约能源等）； (3)呼吁全体学生一起加入。 注意： (1)词数不少于100； (2)可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； (3)文章中不得提及考生所在学校和本人姓名； (4)信的开头及格式已为你写好，不计入词数。 参考词汇：低碳生活 low-carbon lifestyle Dear fellow students, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: Dear fellow students, In response to our city’s “low-carbon lifestyle” campaign, the Student Union encourages everyone to use handkerchiefs instead of tissues. Using tissues harms the environment. Their production involves cutting down trees, leading to deforestation and ecological damage. Tissues are also single-use, creating waste that contributes to “white pollution.” Once discarded, they take years to break down, further harming nature. Handkerchiefs, however, are reusable and eco-friendly. Producing handkerchiefs consumes less energy compared to tissues, helping us save energy and cut carbon emissions. Let’s take action together! Switching to handkerchiefs is a small change but makes a big difference. Join us in protecting the environment and promoting a sustainable future. Sincerely, The Student Union 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生用英语写一封倡议书，向全校学生发出“告别纸巾，使用手帕”（Using Hankies Instead of Tissues）的倡议。 【详解】1.词汇积累 激励：encourage →motivate 伤害：harm →be harmful to 导致：lead to →result in 保护：conserve →preserve 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Their production involves cutting down trees, leading to deforestation and ecological damage. 拓展句：Their production involves cutting down trees which leads to deforestation and ecological damage. 【点睛】【高分句型1】Once discarded, they take years to break down, further harming nature.（运用了状语从句中的省略结构） 【高分句型2】Producing handkerchiefs consumes less energy compared to tissues, helping us save energy and cut carbon emissions.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） 听力部分 第一节 听下面五段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的 A、B、C三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，你将有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。 61.

While studying for a fashion design degree at an art academy, she discovered her love for make-up in her free moments. In 2020, “the Palace Museum covered in snow” became a hot topic on social media. “It was my first time observing such a scene. An idea came upon me then: Were those cultural relics quietly appreciating the snow inside the palace?” Huang said. She began imagining what the relics might look like in human form. So she got colors and elements from these artifacts (手工艺品) for her make-up. She skillfully recreated the features of an artifact on her face, bringing it to life. Her designs quickly gained popularity. “This approach not only allows people to appreciate the make-up but also helps them connect with the liveliness of our cultural heritage.” Huang said. Some have expressed how her make-up designs have introduced them to many little-known artifacts. One follower said, “You have found and shared the valuable things from museums, allowing us to see and appreciate the artifacts that were once lost among many exhibits during our hurried visits.” Huang has noticed that an increasing number of young people show a deep appreciation for the traditional culture. “It’s necessary for the ways museum culture is passed on to keep pace with the changing times to avoid culture loss. Young generations are responsible for carrying forward the culture, in whatever positive and productive manners,” Huang said. The total number of Chinese museums nationwide reached 6, 565 in 2022, ranking among the top in the world. In the past, many considered museum visits boring because of a lack of awareness of their wealth of collections. The recommendations by social media influencers and TV programs have led to a growing number of people realizing that museums offer a wide variety of interesting things. While not everyone may be interested in objects and history, the quest for beauty is born among people. 36. What did the snowy Palace Museum inspire Huang to do? A. Start a career in fashion design. B. Present artifacts in snowy landscapes. C. Create make-up to show artifacts’ beauty. D. Teach people to do make-up on social media. 37. Why do Huang’s designs become popular? A. They follow the latest beauty topics. B. They allow people to imagine missing artifacts. C. They satisfy people’s curiosity about artwork design. D. They make museum artworks more approachable. 38.

C Several studies show communication skills are the most important skills for American adults. They are often taught through Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) programs, which encourage student involvement (参与), offered in K-12 schools in 27 states. But they are also a by-product of theater classes, according to a recent study. The study followed children aged 5 to 18 over six years and found increases in communication skills across ages. The longer the kids spent on the theater classes, the more they gained in 21st-century skills, like communication, creativity, imagination, and problem-solving, says Thalia Goldstein, the study’s co-author. Theater involves different learning — getting up on your feet to take in information, rather than sitting at a desk. “When you put something in your body, it lasts longer, and you remember it longer,” says Kathryn Dawson, associate professor of theater at the University of Texas at Austin. Theater provides an awareness of space. And it enables more than expressions with words. For children with autism (孤独症), theater techniques increase eye attention and inspire conversation. This is where the arts level the playing field for children of different abilities; they can participate in meaningful ways where language is not a necessary skill. Sara Williams, Charlotte’s mother, cites theater as the foundation (基础) for her daughter’s self-awareness. Charlotte began drama classes at age 5. At 13, she is not afraid to speak publicly or join the student council; she listens and has confidence. “Kids go to these classes and come home feeling excited, like they have achieved something,” Williams says. And not just the outgoing kids — for the shy, theater opens them up. A theater class provides a supportive environment, free from unkind judgment. You can keep your personality, and unlike in sports, you’re not competing with anyone. “Theater is about telling stories. It is one of the best ways to help young people get to know themselves,” Dawson says. 41. What does the recent study find out? A. Theater classes contribute greatly to children’s social skills. B Communication skills matter to children’s development. C. Theater classes are more effective than SEL programs. D. Children’s interest in theater classes varies with age. 42. How does Kathryn Dawson explain the impact of theater learning? A. It focuses on improving one’s artistic skills. B. It raises children’s awareness of confidence. C. It strengthens a sense of community among children. D It promotes active learning through physical involvement. 43. What can we infer from the third paragraph? A. Theater techniques are based on language learning. B. Theater experiences help practise competitive skills. C. Theater techniques benefit a wide range of children. D. Theater classes can be unsuitable for autistic children. 44. What can theater bring to shy children according to the example? A. A means of gaining an understanding of others. B. A comfortable space for self-expression. C. A gateway to discovering hidden talents. D. A chance to accept your disadvantages. 45. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Theater education shapes children’s self-growth B. Be open-minded about different learning methods C. Theater classes equip children with great creativity D. Design theater classes according to children’s needs D While Alzheimer’s disease, which usually damages memory, thinking, and behavior, has no known treatment, early detection (发觉) may allow for improved management of the disease, thus possibly slowing its progression and improving the quality of life for those affected. Researchers have now created a simple lightweight headband device for the early judgment of the disease. This new device was made possible through a joint effort of researchers from the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus and Washington University in St. Louis. Individuals can wear this headband while they sleep, and the device will continuously monitor brainwaves, enabling the detection of Alzheimer’s disease well before the condition starts to impact performance and memory. Researchers examined the effectiveness of a headband in monitoring brain health in a study which included more than 205 elderly individuals. Their method focused on detecting brainwaves that appear during memory processing in deep sleep and using them to understand whether there are problems with the brain’s memory. The team identified changes in neural patterns (神经模式) that could be linked to the buildup of two types of proteins (蛋白原), which serve as signs of disease progression in the brain of the individual with Alzheimer’s. “We could identify the levels of proteins in people’s brainwave patterns before they experienced any symptoms (症状). Detecting Alzheimer’s disease at an early stage in people who don’t show symptoms can help with the planning of care and increase the effectiveness of medications and other treatment approaches,” explained Brice McConnell, assistant professor of neurology at the University of Colorado. Previous medical studies have pointed to a connection between the lack of sleep and Alzheimer’s. However, how poor sleep quality influences Alzheimer’s development or even how the disease affects sleep remains ambiguous. While early detection of this disease is beneficial, it is not always straightforward mainly because the exact cause of Alzheimer’s disease is not fully understood. Therefore, headbands like this one are still far from becoming commercially or clinically available. Despite this, the team believes that this simple wearable device might one day make a significant difference to the early detection of Alzheimer’s. 46. What is the function of the new device? A. To record individuals’ stress levels. B. To identify early signs of Alzheimer’s. C. To reduce the symptoms of Alzheimer’s. D. To improve the sleep quality of patients. 47. How does the new device work? A. By using memory tasks to help patients learn. B. By controlling the number of proteins in the brain. C. By measuring brain activities to detect health issues. D. By tracking changes in the sleepers’ breathing patterns. 48. What is considered a possible benefit of the device for individuals without symptoms? A. It helps lengthen their time of deep sleep. B. It enables timely management of the disease. C. It gradually stops the development of Alzheimer’s. D. It deepens the connection between doctors and patients. 49. What does the underlined word “ambiguous” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Misleading. B. Familiar. C. Unclear. D. Opposite. 50. What is the team’s attitude towards the application of the device? A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Surprised. D. Worried. 第Ⅱ卷 第一节：阅读表达 Thomas Moore was a 10-year-old boy from Maryland. He decided on his own to do something extremely thoughtful for children suffering from cancer. It all started when Thomas saw his mom watching a video about a 5-year-old girl with cancer who had lost all of her hair because of chemotherapy (化疗). Moved by the girl’s story, Thomas decided to do something to make her happy. After thinking about how the little girl lost her hair, he considered that growing his hair and then donating it would be the best way to help her and other children like her. When his hair grew, he took good care of it so that it would be strong and healthy for the day when he had to cut it. His hair became so long and thick that it looked as if he had enough hair for two wigs (假发). It was time for Thomas to cut his hair. His aunt Amber was the one who caught the special moment on video. She and his parents couldn’t have been more pleased with him for what he did. Although it was a small act, not everyone would be willing to do what he did. And the fact that he decided to do it on his own at such a young age showed his good character. Thanks to his hair, the girl and another young cancer patient were able to feel like they still lived a normal life before. Amber’s video of Thomas made pretty big waves on social media platforms, and many people praised him for his brave and selfless act. 51. Why did Thomas Moore feel sorry for the 5-year-old girl?
