At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what better than the marathon. Back then, the running craze hadn’t quite heated up to the point it has today and running a marathon was unknown to most people. Besides, I never knew anyone who had actually run a marathon. On the way from England to Dublin, I was wondering what I was getting myself in two days later when the race would begin. I tried to get some sleep to ease my nerves, but I found it hard. The race day was somewhat cloudy but the warmth of the people forced away the clouds. My limited memories from that first race remain: the feeling of running through a tunnel (隧道) of people as the crowds lined beside the streets; the cheers from the crowds as the news came that an Irishman had won the race; what’s important, the unbelievable kindness of the crowds cheering me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through. Eventually, I didn’t get the prize, but I never gave up and regarded it as a success because I challenged myself. After my first marathon, I started a website based on my love for running. Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or just an interested passer-by, I invite you to participate in the website and make it your home. Runners and particularly marathoners seem to share common ideals. They’re part of a global team and a global community. 4. Why did the author take part in his first marathon? A. To show his talent for running. B. To win a prize in a longer distance race. C. To attract the public’s attention to running. D. To express his preference for 400-meter running. 5. What impressed the author deeply during his first marathon? A. He hit the wall and tried to struggle through. B. He ran through a tunnel with other racers. C. He nearly got lost due to the cloudy weather. D. He received lots of encouragement from the crowds. 6. What can we know about the author’s website? A. It aims to help unite running lovers. B. It has attracted large numbers of participants. C. It attaches great importance to community spirit. D. It was set up mainly for experienced marathoners. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A Good Marathon Runner B. My Unforgettable First Marathon C. Starting a Website for Runners D. Being Brave to Challenge Ourselves 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者第一次参加马拉松比赛的经历。 4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what better than the marathon. (当时，我在高中时是一名优秀的400米跑者，但我的脑海中却有一个想法，那就是我应该尝试更长的距离来证明我真的很擅长跑步——还有什么比马拉松更好的)”可知，作者认为参加马拉松比赛是一个证明自己拥有跑步天赋的好机会。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段第一二句“The race day was somewhat cloudy, but the warmth of the people forced away the clouds. My limited memories from that first race remain: the feeling of running through a tunnel (隧道) of people as the crowds lined beside the streets; the cheers from the crowds as the news came that an Irishman had won the race; what’s important, the unbelievable kindness of the crowds cheering me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through. (比赛日有点多云，但人们的温暖驱散了云层。我对第一场比赛的记忆还很有限：当人群在街道旁排队时，我会有一种穿过人群隧道的感觉；当一名爱尔兰人赢得比赛的消息传来时，人群中的欢呼声；重要的是，当我撞到墙上并试图挣扎通过时，人群为我欢呼，令人难以置信)”可知，观众对作者的热情鼓励让他印象深刻。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句“Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or just an interested passer-by, I invite you to participate in the website and make it your home. (无论你是一位经验丰富的马拉松选手还是一位感兴趣的路人，我都邀请你加入这个网站，让它成为你的家)”可知，作者建网站旨在给对跑步感兴趣的人一个联系的平台，即团结跑步爱好者。故选A项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段第一句“At 18, I competed in my first marathon in Dublin, Ireland. (18岁时，我在爱尔兰都柏林参加了我的第一场马拉松比赛)”可知，本文主要讲述了作者第一次参加马拉松比赛的故事，以及随后建立跑步者网站的故事。故选B项。 C After spending 62 years above the Hudson River, the Tappan Zee Bridge’s heritage lives on below the water’s surface. The bridge was fully torn down, after which its huge structure of metal and concrete was cleaned and then dropped into the Atlantic Ocean to start a new life as an artificial reef. Coral reefs are varied marine ecosystems, often regarded as the rainforests of the sea. When coral reefs are stressed by changes in conditions, such as temperature, light or nutrients, they expel the algae that live in their tissues, without which corals’ tissues become transparent, showing their white structures, a phenomenon known as bleaching (漂白). This largely attributes to the sharp decline of coral reefs. It is reported that we’ve lost 14 percent of the world’s coral reefs in the last decade, an equivalent of losing the whole Great Barrier Reef in 10 years. It is clear that natural coral reefs are now in trouble. That’s why people are finding ways to build them from artificial materials. Artificial reefs aren’t made of coral. They are created by placing large objects on the ocean floor. Sometimes, these objects are built to be used as reefs. They are often made of steel and concrete. A structure can also be recycled as a reef. That’s what happened with the Tappan Zee Bridge. Of all the artificial marine reefs in the world, those made of submerged shipwrecks are the most common. In 2005, Jim Walsh helped turn a ship called the Carthaginian II into a reef, The Carthaginian II landed on the ocean floor more than a decade ago. Back then, it was just a chunk of metal on a bare patch of sand. Now the ship is a home to at least 75 marine animal species. “It’s amazing to see how much life is on that ship,” Walsh says. While artificial reefs bring benefits in many ways, they aren’t perfect for all situations, as they can damage natural habitats if not carefully constructed and potentially lead to a sharp increase in tourism activity that spills over into surrounding areas, including natural reefs. 8. How was the Tappan Zee Bridge recycled? A. It was dropped as it was. B. It was cut into small pieces first. C. It was melted and reshaped into a reef. D. It was cleaned then placed into the ocean. 9. What does the underlined word “expel” in Paragraph 2 mean? A Attract. B. Release. C. Change. D. Feed. 10. What can be inferred about the future of artificial reefs? A. They may need strict regulations. B. They will ruin the natural environment. C. They will take the place of natural reefs. D. They will all be made of steel and concrete. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. The forms of reefs have changed. B. Tappan Zee Bridge is home to reefs. C. A deserted bridge turns into a treasure. D. Artificial reefs bring hopes for oceans. 【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了塔潘齐大桥被拆除后，其结构被改造成人工鱼礁，为海洋生物提供了栖息地，成为了海洋中的“宝藏”。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“After spending 62 years above the Hudson River, the Tappan Zee Bridge’s heritage lives on below the water’s surface. The bridge was fully torn down, after which its huge structure of metal and concrete was cleaned and then dropped into the Atlantic Ocean to start a new life as an artificial reef.( 在哈德逊河上度过了62年之后，塔潘泽大桥的遗产仍然存在于水面以下。这座桥被完全拆除，之后，它巨大的金属和混凝土结构被清理干净，然后被扔进大西洋，作为一个人工礁石开始了新的生活。)”可知，塔潘齐大桥被拆除后，其巨大的金属和混凝土结构被清理干净，然后沉入大西洋，成为人工鱼礁。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词句中“…without which corals’ tissues become transparent, showing their white structures, a phenomenon known as bleaching (漂白).( 没有这些藻类，珊瑚的组织就会变得透明，显示出白色的结构，这种现象被称为白化。)”可知，珊瑚礁在受到压力时，会排出生活在其组织中的藻类，没有这些藻类，珊瑚组织会变得透明，呈现出白色结构，即白化现象。所以“expel”的意思是“排出，释放”，和B选项Release“释放，排放”意思相近。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“While artificial reefs bring benefits in many ways, they aren’t perfect for all situations, as they can damage natural habitats if not carefully constructed and potentially lead to a sharp increase in tourism activity that spills over into surrounding areas, including natural reefs.( 虽然人工珊瑚礁在很多方面都有好处，但它们并非适用于所有情况，因为如果不精心建造，它们会破坏自然栖息地，并可能导致旅游活动的急剧增加，从而溢出到包括自然珊瑚礁在内的周边地区。)”可知，人工鱼礁如果建造不当会破坏自然栖息地，还可能导致旅游业活动急剧增加，影响周边地区，所以未来人工鱼礁可能需要严格的管理和规范。故选A项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段“After spending 62 years above the Hudson River, the Tappan Zee Bridge’s heritage lives on below the water’s surface. The bridge was fully torn down, after which its huge structure of metal and concrete was cleaned and then dropped into the Atlantic Ocean to start a new life as an artificial reef.( 在哈德逊河上度过了62年之后，塔潘泽大桥的遗产仍然存在于水面以下。这座桥被完全拆除，之后，它巨大的金属和混凝土结构被清理干净，然后被扔进大西洋，作为一个人工礁石开始了新的生活。)”可知，文章主要讲述了塔潘齐大桥被拆除后，其结构被改造成人工鱼礁，为海洋生物提供了栖息地，成为了海洋中的“宝藏”，C 选项“一座废弃的桥变成了一座宝藏”符合文章主旨。故选C项。 D It’s not unusual for the words of influencers to gain popularity. But the influential philosopher Henry David Thoreau was born more than 200 years ago — and now a term he’s credited with introducing, “brain rot, ” is the Oxford University Press’s word or phrase of 2024. Originally introduced by the influential philosopher, according to Oxford University Press, the term first appeared in his 1854 book “Walden, or Life in the Woods”. In the book, Thoreau used “brain rot” to express his concern about the oversimplification of ideas and the numbing of one’s intellect due to the wide spread of unreflective habits and the suppression of inner instincts for curiosity and wonder. Today, “brain rot” has gained popularity, particularly on platforms like TikTok, thanks to Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The term is now seen as a cautionary term for what might happen to us if we get too distracted by the endless waves of memes and video clips, especially on social media. The frequency of the term’s use grew by 230% from 2023 to 2024, according to the publisher’s monitoring tools. Cristin Ellis, an authority on Thoreau who teaches literature at the University of Mississippi, explains that in today’s usage, “brain rot” is seen as a bad thing, but Thoreau’s sense of it is way more extreme. He would accuse our entire 24/7 media culture, including the “serious” news of newspapers, of downplaying our minds. Thoreau valued direct experience over consuming other people’s ideas at second hand and encouraged people to go outside and experience the world for themselves. The popularity of “brain rot” suggests a reflective mood and anxieties about striking the right balance between the online world and the real world. It indicates a shift in thought and concerns about where society is heading, similar to other words of the year like “climate emergency” in 2019 and “vax” in 2021. Casper Grathwohl, president of Oxford Languages, finds it fascinating that younger people are embracing the term, seeing it as a rightful next chapter in the cultural conversation about humanity and technology. 12. What was Thoreau’s original worry when he used the term “brain rot”? A. The impact of “serious” news of media on our minds. B. The impact of 24/7 media culture on people’s minds. C. The excessive use of the Internet leading to a loss of real-world experiences. D. The excessive simplification of concepts and the suppression of instincts. 13. According to the passage, what can be inferred about Thoreau’s view on modern media? A. He would completely oppose all forms of modern media. B. He would charge modern media with understating our minds. C. He would support the popularity of “brain rot” on social media. D. He would encourage people to use modern media to gain ideas. 14. What is Casper Grathwohl’s attitude towards Gen Z’s use of the term “brain rot”? A. Concerned. B. Positive. C. Critical. D. Indifferent. 15. According to the passage, which is TRUE about the term “brain rot”? A. It is a term that only applies to the younger generation. B. It is a term that has not changed in meaning for centuries. C. It reflects concerns about the impact of the online world. D. Its usage frequency decreased by 230% from 2023 to 2024. 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了“脑腐烂”一词的起源及其在当今社会中的含义和影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In the book, Thoreau used “brain rot” to express his concern about the oversimplification of ideas and the numbing of one’s intellect due to the wide spread of unreflective habits and the suppression of inner instincts for curiosity and wonder.( 在书中，梭罗用“brain rot”来表达他对思想过于简单化和智力麻木的担忧，这是由于普遍存在的不思考的习惯和对好奇心和好奇心的内在本能的压制。)”可知，梭罗使用“脑腐烂”这个词最初是担忧概念的过度简化和本能的压抑。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Cristin Ellis, an authority on Thoreau who teaches literature at the University of Mississippi, explains that in today’s usage, “brain rot” is seen as a bad thing, but Thoreau’s sense of it is way more extreme. He would accuse our entire 24/7 media culture, including the “serious” news of newspapers, of downplaying our minds.( 在密西西比大学教授文学的研究梭罗的权威克里斯汀·埃利斯解释说，在今天的用法中，“脑腐烂”被视为一件坏事，但梭罗的感觉要极端得多。他会指责我们整个全天候的媒体文化，包括报纸的“严肃”新闻，低估了我们的思想。)”可推知，梭罗会指责现代媒体低估了我们的思维。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Casper Grathwohl, president of Oxford Languages, finds it fascinating that younger people are embracing the term, seeing it as a rightful next chapter in the cultural conversation about humanity and technology.( 牛津语言协会主席卡斯珀•格拉斯沃（Casper Grathwohl）认为，年轻人正在接受这个词，这令人着迷，他们将其视为人类与技术文化对话中理所当然的下一个篇章。)”可推知，卡斯珀•格拉斯沃认为年轻人使用这个词很有趣，将其视为关于人类与技术的文化对话中合理的新篇章，由此可推知，卡斯珀•格拉斯沃对Z世代使用“脑腐烂”一词的态度是积极的。故选B项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Today, “brain rot” has gained popularity, particularly on platforms like TikTok, thanks to Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The term is now seen as a cautionary term for what might happen to us if we get too distracted by the endless waves of memes and video clips, especially on social media.( 如今，由于Z世代和Alpha世代的存在，“脑腐烂”已经变得流行起来，尤其是在抖音等平台上。这个词现在被视为一个警示语，如果我们被没完没了的表情包和视频剪辑（尤其是在社交媒体上）分散了注意力，可能会发生什么。)”以及最后一段中“The popularity of “brain rot” suggests a reflective mood and anxieties about striking the right balance between the online world and the real world.(“脑腐烂”一词的流行表明了一种反思情绪和对在网络世界和现实世界之间取得适当平衡的焦虑。)”可知，关于“脑腐烂”这个词，它反映了对网络世界影响的担忧。故选C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。 Tips for Winning Scholarships The costs of college keep rising, but that doesn’t have to hold you back! Scholarships give you free money to put toward your college education, which can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars, and some even pay your tuition altogether. Here are some tips for Winning Scholarships. Focus on academics and extracurriculars (课外活动) while you’re in school. You’re most likely to win a scholarship if you were a good student, active in your community and school, and showcased leadership throughout your school years. ___16___ — if you have very specific goals, a scholarship committee might be more likely to see you as a good investment. Start by applying for just a few scholarships that fit your interests. Because there are so many scholarships out there, it can seem overwhelming at first. ___17___. Then, gradually expand your search to scholarships that you qualify for, but maybe aren’t as confident about. Try applying for smaller and local scholarships. ___18___. But remember that you’ll also have to compete with more people for those. On the other hand, if you get several smaller scholarships, those can add up quickly — and they might have fewer applicants, so you may have a better chance of winning! ___19___. As you search for scholarships, save all of the scholarships you’re considering to a spreadsheet. Include the deadline and anything you need to include in your application. When you’re more organized, you’ll be less likely to miss out on an opportunity because you got your application in late. Keep searching year-round and during college. The more scholarships you apply for, the more likely you’ll be awarded one. Because scholarship deadlines vary, it’s possible to find new ones at any time throughout the year. Many scholarships are also available to college and grad students, as well. ___20___. A. So don’t stop your search just because you graduated high school B. It can be appealing to apply for scholarships that offer a small amount of money C. Focus on finding scholarships that you feel like you’re a really good fit for D. It can be tempting to apply for scholarships that offer a large amount of money E. Organize your application process F. The fewer scholarships you apply for, the better your chances of getting one G. Also, get really clear on what you want to do after school 【答案】16. G 17. C 18. D 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何赢得奖学金的几个实用建议。 【16题详解】 由上文“You’re most likely to win a scholarship if you were a good student, active in your community and school, and showcased leadership throughout your school years. (如果你是一个好学生，在你的社区和学校都很活跃，并且在你整个学生时代都展现出领导力，那么你最有可能获得奖学金)”及下文“if you have very specific goals, a scholarship committee might be more likely to see you as a good investment. (如果你有非常明确的目标，奖学金委员会可能更倾向于把你视为一项不错的投资)”可知，本空应进一步阐述除了前面提到的条件外，在目标方面的要求，G选项“Also, get really clear on what you want to do after school (同时，要非常清楚你毕业后想做什么)”进一步补充了除了学术和课外活动外，明确未来规划也有助于获得奖学金，能承上启下，符合题意。故选G。 【17题详解】 由上文“Because there are so many scholarships out there, it can seem overwhelming at first. (因为有这么多的奖学金，一开始可能会让人不知所措)”可知，本空应给出关于如何选择奖学金的，C选项“Focus on finding scholarships that you feel like you’re a really good fit for (专注于寻找你觉得非常适合你的奖学金)”能承接上文，符合题意。故选C。 【18题详解】 由下文“But remember that you’ll also have to compete with more people for those. (但要记住，你也必须和更多的人竞争这些奖学金。)”以及“On the other hand, if you get several smaller scholarships, those can add up quickly — and they might have fewer applicants, so you may have a better chance of winning! (另一方面，如果你获得了几笔较小的奖学金，这些奖学金可以很快累积起来 —— 而且它们的申请人可能较少，所以你获奖的机会可能更大！)”可知，下文在对比申请不同金额奖学金的情况，本空应该是申请金额较大的奖学金的情况。D选项“It can be tempting to apply for scholarships that offer a large amount of money (申请提供大量资金的奖学金可能很有吸引力)”引出了申请金额大的奖学金这一话题，且与下文的转折形成对比，符合语境。故选D。 【19题详解】 由下文“As you search for scholarships, save all of the scholarships you’re considering to a spreadsheet. Include the deadline and anything you need to include in your application. (当你在寻找奖学金时，把你正在考虑的所有奖学金都保存到一个电子表格中。包括截止日期和你需要在申请中包含的任何内容)”可知，下文主要在讲申请奖学金时要把相关信息整理好，本空应强调组织好申请过程。E选项“Organize your application process (组织你的申请过程)”概括了本段的主旨，符合题意。故选E。 【20题详解】 由上文“Many scholarships are also available to college and grad students, as well. (许多奖学金也适用于大学生和研究生)”可知，这里提到了奖学金不仅适用于高中生，也适用于大学生和研究生，本空应强调不要停止寻求奖学金。A选项“So don’t stop your search just because you graduated high school (所以不要因为高中毕业了就停止寻找奖学金)”进一步强调了不要因为毕业就停止寻找奖学金，符合题意。故选A。 第二部分 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。 Jen is a 39-year old community dancer with Down’s Syndrome(唐氏综合征).

The villagers, having not honored her before, hurriedly went to her house. John, the oldest boy of twelve, was strong enough to work for any farmer. Kate, aged ten to eleven, was bright and active and had potential. But Maggie, the youngest, mainly lay on the bed due to a spinal injury from a fall two years ago. While John and Kate were quickly taken care of by childless couples, no one wanted Maggie. A man suggested sending Maggie to the orphanage (孤儿院) where she would be taken care of. “She’s just a burden,” he said harshly. Joe Thompson, a wheelwright (车轮工) who happened to pass by, overheard the conversation and refused to leave Maggie alone. “No, we can’t just leave her there,” Joe protested. “She deserves better than that.” The villagers shrugged and turned away, but Joe made a decision. He decided to take Maggie home with him, despite his wife’s initial shock and disapproval. “Mary, I’ve brought someone home with me,” Joe announced as he entered their humble house. Mrs. Thompson looked up from her sewing and her face hardened. “Who is it, Joe? We can’t afford to take in anyone.” Joe explained that no one else wanted Maggie and that she couldn’t walk to the orphanage alone. Mrs. Thompson’s anger was immediate. “Why did you bring her here, Joe? Why didn’t you just take her to the house?” Mrs. Thompson demanded, her voice trembling with anger. Joe took a deep breath. “Mary, she’s just a little girl. She needs someone to care for her. Please, just let her stay for one night.” Mrs. Thompson hesitated, but Joe’s resolve seemed to touch her. 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。 She sighed and agreed to keep Maggie for just one night. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, as the sun rose, so did a new determination in Mrs. Thompson. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 She sighed and agreed to keep Maggie for just one night. Joe carried Maggie inside, gently placing her on a makeshift bed. Maggie, with her big, scared eyes, thanked them in a barely audible voice. Mrs. Thompson tried to maintain her cold demeanor, busying herself with household chores. However, as the evening progressed, she found herself stealing glances at the frail girl. When Joe brought Maggie a bowl of warm soup, Maggie’s face lit up with gratitude. Mrs. Thompson noticed the simple yet heartwarming exchange and felt a tiny crack in the wall she had built around her heart. The next morning, as the sun rose, so did a new determination in Mrs. Thompson. She watched Joe as he tenderly helped Maggie sit up and combed her hair. At that moment, Mrs. Thompson realized she couldn't turn her back on Maggie. “Joe,” she said, her voice soft but firm, “Maggie should stay with us.” Joe looked at her in surprise and then with a huge smile. From then on, Mrs. Thompson dedicated herself to taking care of Maggie. With love and care, Maggie gradually grew stronger, and the once - gloomy house was filled with laughter and warmth. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个小村庄，一妇女离世后留下三个孩子，约翰和凯特很快被收养，而因伤卧床的小女儿麦琪遭众人嫌弃，被提议送孤儿院。车轮工乔・汤普森听闻后，不顾妻子玛丽反对，带麦琪回家。玛丽勉强同意麦琪留宿一晚，当晚麦琪的状况及对乔的感激触动玛丽。次日，玛丽见乔悉心照料麦琪，最终决定收留她。此后，在玛丽照顾下麦琪逐渐康复，这个家也充满欢笑与温暖。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她叹了口气，同意留下麦琪一晚。”可知，第一段可描写乔悉心照顾麦琪以及汤普森夫人看到的暖心场景。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早晨，太阳升起来了，汤普森夫人也下定了新的决心。”可知，第二段可描写汤普森夫人决定收养麦琪以及一家人充满了笑声和温暖。 2.续写线索：同意留下麦琪一晚——乔悉心照顾麦琪——充满感激之情——汤普森夫人决定收养麦琪——麦琪逐渐变得坚强起来——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①保持：maintain/ keep ②.注意到：noticed /saw ③.意识到：realized/ be aware of 情绪类 ①.感激之情：gratitude/ appreciation ②.惊讶：surprise /astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B At 18, I competed in my first marathon in Dublin, Ireland. At that time, I was an excellent 400-meter runner at high school, but got it into my head that I should try the longer distance to prove that I was really good at running — and what better than the marathon. Back then, the running craze hadn’t quite heated up to the point it has today and running a marathon was unknown to most people. Besides, I never knew anyone who had actually run a marathon. On the way from England to Dublin, I was wondering what I was getting myself in two days later when the race would begin. I tried to get some sleep to ease my nerves, but I found it hard. The race day was somewhat cloudy, but the warmth of the people forced away the clouds. My limited memories from that first race remain: the feeling of running through a tunnel (隧道) of people as the crowds lined beside the streets; the cheers from the crowds as the news came that an Irishman had won the race; what’s important, the unbelievable kindness of the crowds cheering me on as I hit the wall and tried to struggle through. Eventually, I didn’t get the prize, but I never gave up and regarded it as a success because I challenged myself. After my first marathon, I started a website based on my love for running. Whether you’re an experienced marathoner or just an interested passer-by, I invite you to participate in the website and make it your home. Runners and particularly marathoners seem to share common ideals. They’re part of a global team and a global community. 4. Why did the author take part in his first marathon? A. To show his talent for running. B. To win a prize in a longer distance race. C. To attract the public’s attention to running. D. To express his preference for 400-meter running. 5. What impressed the author deeply during his first marathon? A. He hit the wall and tried to struggle through. B. He ran through a tunnel with other racers. C. He nearly got lost due to the cloudy weather. D. He received lots of encouragement from the crowds. 6. What can we know about the author’s website? A. It aims to help unite running lovers. B. It has attracted large numbers of participants. C. It attaches great importance to community spirit. D. It was set up mainly for experienced marathoners. 7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A. A Good Marathon Runner B. My Unforgettable First Marathon C. Starting a Website for Runners D. Being Brave to Challenge Ourselves C After spending 62 years above the Hudson River, the Tappan Zee Bridge’s heritage lives on below the water’s surface. The bridge was fully torn down, after which its huge structure of metal and concrete was cleaned and then dropped into the Atlantic Ocean to start a new life as an artificial reef. Coral reefs are varied marine ecosystems, often regarded as the rainforests of the sea. When coral reefs are stressed by changes in conditions, such as temperature, light or nutrients, they expel the algae that live in their tissues, without which corals’ tissues become transparent, showing their white structures, a phenomenon known as bleaching (漂白). This largely attributes to the sharp decline of coral reefs. It is reported that we’ve lost 14 percent of the world’s coral reefs in the last decade, an equivalent of losing the whole Great Barrier Reef in 10 years. It is clear that natural coral reefs are now in trouble. That’s why people are finding ways to build them from artificial materials. Artificial reefs aren’t made of coral. They are created by placing large objects on the ocean floor. Sometimes, these objects are built to be used as reefs. They are often made of steel and concrete. A structure can also be recycled as a reef. That’s what happened with the Tappan Zee Bridge. Of all the artificial marine reefs in the world, those made of submerged shipwrecks are the most common. In 2005, Jim Walsh helped turn a ship called the Carthaginian II into a reef, The Carthaginian II landed on the ocean floor more than a decade ago. Back then, it was just a chunk of metal on a bare patch of sand. Now the ship is a home to at least 75 marine animal species. “It’s amazing to see how much life is on that ship,” Walsh says. While artificial reefs bring benefits in many ways, they aren’t perfect for all situations, as they can damage natural habitats if not carefully constructed and potentially lead to a sharp increase in tourism activity that spills over into surrounding areas, including natural reefs. 8. How was the Tappan Zee Bridge recycled? A. It was dropped as it was. B. It was cut into small pieces first. C. It was melted and reshaped into a reef. D. It was cleaned then placed into the ocean. 9. What does the underlined word “expel” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Attract. B. Release. C. Change. D. Feed. 10. What can be inferred about the future of artificial reefs? A. They may need strict regulations. B. They will ruin the natural environment. C. They will take the place of natural reefs. D. They will all be made of steel and concrete. 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. The forms of reefs have changed. B. Tappan Zee Bridge is home to reefs. C. A deserted bridge turns into a treasure. D. Artificial reefs bring hopes for oceans. D It’s not unusual for the words of influencers to gain popularity. But the influential philosopher Henry David Thoreau was born more than 200 years ago — and now a term he’s credited with introducing, “brain rot, ” is the Oxford University Press’s word or phrase of 2024. Originally introduced by the influential philosopher, according to Oxford University Press, the term first appeared in his 1854 book “Walden, or Life in the Woods”. In the book, Thoreau used “brain rot” to express his concern about the oversimplification of ideas and the numbing of one’s intellect due to the wide spread of unreflective habits and the suppression of inner instincts for curiosity and wonder. Today, “brain rot” has gained popularity, particularly on platforms like TikTok, thanks to Gen Z and Gen Alpha. The term is now seen as a cautionary term for what might happen to us if we get too distracted by the endless waves of memes and video clips, especially on social media. The frequency of the term’s use grew by 230% from 2023 to 2024, according to the publisher’s monitoring tools. Cristin Ellis, an authority on Thoreau who teaches literature at the University of Mississippi, explains that in today’s usage, “brain rot” is seen as a bad thing, but Thoreau’s sense of it is way more extreme. He would accuse our entire 24/7 media culture, including the “serious” news of newspapers, of downplaying our minds. Thoreau valued direct experience over consuming other people’s ideas at second hand and encouraged people to go outside and experience the world for themselves. The popularity of “brain rot” suggests a reflective mood and anxieties about striking the right balance between the online world and the real world. It indicates a shift in thought and concerns about where society is heading, similar to other words of the year like “climate emergency” in 2019 and “vax” in 2021.

Scholarships give you free money to put toward your college education, which can save you hundreds or thousands of dollars, and some even pay your tuition altogether. Here are some tips for Winning Scholarships. Focus on academics and extracurriculars (课外活动) while you’re in school. You’re most likely to win a scholarship if you were a good student, active in your community and school, and showcased leadership throughout your school years. ___16___ — if you have very specific goals, a scholarship committee might be more likely to see you as a good investment. Start by applying for just a few scholarships that fit your interests. Because there are so many scholarships out there it can seem overwhelming at first. ___17___. Then, gradually expand your search to scholarships that you qualify for, but maybe aren’t as confident about. Try applying for smaller and local scholarships. ___18___. But remember that you’ll also have to compete with more people for those. On the other hand, if you get several smaller scholarships, those can add up quickly — and they might have fewer applicants, so you may have a better chance of winning! ___19___. As you search for scholarships, save all of the scholarships you’re considering to a spreadsheet. Include the deadline and anything you need to include in your application. When you’re more organized, you’ll be less likely to miss out on an opportunity because you got your application in late. Keep searching year-round and during college.

Many scholarships are also available to college and grad students, as well. ___20___. A. So don’t stop your search just because you graduated high school B. It can be appealing to apply for scholarships that offer a small amount of money C. Focus on finding scholarships that you feel like you’re a really good fit for D.

The villagers, having not honored her before, hurriedly went to her house. John, the oldest boy of twelve, was strong enough to work for any farmer. Kate, aged ten to eleven, was bright and active and had potential. But Maggie, the youngest, mainly lay on the bed due to a spinal injury from a fall two years ago. While John and Kate were quickly taken care of by childless couples, no one wanted Maggie. A man suggested sending Maggie to the orphanage (孤儿院), where she would be taken care of. “She’s just a burden,” he said harshly. Joe Thompson, a wheelwright (车轮工) who happened to pass by, overheard the conversation and refused to leave Maggie alone. “No, we can’t just leave her there,” Joe protested. “She deserves better than that.” The villagers shrugged and turned away, but Joe made a decision. He decided to take Maggie home with him, despite his wife’s initial shock and disapproval. “Mary, I’ve brought someone home with me,” Joe announced as he entered their humble house. Mrs. Thompson looked up from her sewing and her face hardened. “Who is it, Joe? We can’t afford to take in anyone.” Joe explained that no one else wanted Maggie and that she couldn’t walk to the orphanage alone. Mrs. Thompson’s anger was immediate. “Why did you bring her here, Joe? Why didn’t you just take her to the house?” Mrs. Thompson demanded, her voice trembling with anger. Joe took a deep breath. “Mary, she’s just a little girl. She needs someone to care for her. Please, just let her stay for one night.” Mrs. Thompson hesitated, but Joe’s resolve seemed to touch her. 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。 She sighed and agreed to keep Maggie for just one night. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, as the sun rose, so did a new determination in Mrs. Thompson. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第四部分 听力(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共5小题;每小题1. 5分，满分7. 5分) 听下面5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。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。 46.
