(志愿者将在参与保护区生活的同时获得保护经验与知识，享受令人叹为观止的自然环境，并为其长期可持续发展与成功做出贡献)”可知，该项目的目的是促进野生动物保护，故选D项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Before volunteering, you will first complete an introductory period, during which you will learn more about the work. (在开始志愿工作之前，你将首先完成一个导入期，在此期间你将更多地了解相关工作)”可知，志愿者需要接受相关技能培训，故选C项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文并根据最后一段“Anyone who is interested in it can send an email at the address below or come to us in person to learn more. (任何对此感兴趣的人都可以通过以下地址发送电子邮件或亲自前来了解更多信息)”可知，这篇文章最有可能是一则招聘野生动物保护区的志愿者的广告，故选C项。 B After drawing blood and running a CT scan, the doctor asked, “What is a typical day like for you?” “I am a graduate with a tight schedule that usually keeps me at work late into the night,” I replied. Next, he turned to diet. I paused, “I only have coffee for breakfast. For lunch and dinner, I usually have fast food.” The doctor seemed aghast. He sighed heavily and continued to ask. As more questions followed about my stress levels, my unhealthy state began to sink in. It was easier to live a well-rounded life and stay healthy when I was an undergraduate. The cafeteria served healthy food options. And I had a group of friends to participate in social activities with. That all changed when I became a graduate. I lived off campus, and I didn’t have the time or energy to shop for groceries and cook. I didn’t spend as much time exercising and socializing. My drive to succeed blinded me to any potential problems with my lifestyle. Sometimes, I could feel that I was tired. But I continued on, giving my mind and body no rest, until my health problems worsened and drove me to the emergency room. That’s when the doctor peppered me with questions. He told me I had to change my lifestyle. No pill would fix my problems; eating well, exercising, and trying to minimize stress would be the only way. After that, I stopped working late into the night, and spent more time relaxing, sleeping, and preparing my own nutritious and healthy meals. Many times, I could hardly resist the urge to go back to my old routine. I placed sticky notes in my office and at home to remind myself that if I did that, I’d suffer consequences. Over time, I began to notice positive changes in my life. Now I have not only noticed improvements in my health, but I have found it easier to be productive at work. And I’m able to remain alert throughout the day. 24. What mainly caused the author’s health problems? A. Lack of exercise. B. Terrible daily routine. C. Fewer food options. D. Less interaction with others. 25. What does the underlined word “aghast” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Shocked. B. Confused. C. Relieved. D. Disturbed. 26. How was the author’s life as a graduate? A. He found no friend in social activities. B. He was short of motivation to succeed. C. He invested much effort in his career. D. He had enough time to enrich himself. 27. What message does the author deliver? A. It’s never too late to pursue one’s dream. B. Sacrificing health for one’s career is unavoidable. C. Achieving success calls for devotion and patience. D. It’s possible to strike a balance between work and life. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者作为研究生时因不健康的生活方式导致健康问题，最终在医生的建议下改变生活方式并取得积极效果的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““I am a graduate with a tight schedule that usually keeps me at work late into the night,” I replied. Next, he turned to diet. I paused, “I only have coffee for breakfast. For lunch and dinner, I usually have fast food.” (我是一个日程很紧的研究生，通常工作到深夜，”我回答道。接着，他问到了饮食。我停顿了一下，“早餐我只喝咖啡。午餐和晚餐，我通常吃快餐。)”可知，作者的健康问题主要是由于糟糕的日常作息和饮食习惯导致的，故选B项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“I paused, “I only have coffee for breakfast. For lunch and dinner, I usually have fast food.” The doctor seemed aghast. He sighed heavily and continued to ask. (我停顿了一下，“早餐我只喝咖啡。午餐和晚餐，我通常吃快餐。”医生显得非常aghast。他重重地叹了口气，继续问道。)”可知，作者的生活方式很不健康，而且通过医生重重的叹气可以推断，医生对作者的生活方式感到震惊，因此“aghast”的意思是“震惊的”，故选A项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“That all changed when I became a graduate. I lived off campus, and I didn’t have the time or energy to shop for groceries and cook. I didn’t spend as much time exercising and socializing. My drive to succeed blinded me to any potential problems with my lifestyle. (当我成为研究生时，一切都变了。我住在校外，没有时间和精力去购买杂货和做饭。我花在锻炼和社交上的时间也少了。我对成功的渴望使我忽视了生活方式中可能存在的任何问题)”可知，作者作为研究生时在学业上投入了大量精力，故选C项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Now I have not only noticed improvements in my health, but I have found it easier to be productive at work. And I’m able to remain alert throughout the day.

But you may not realize the air inside your home can be even more polluted, especially in winter. Since home is where we spend some 70 percent of our time — more if you’re one of the 35 percent of workers who do some or all business from there — these toxins (毒素) can have a larger impact on your health. The burning of oil, gas, coal, or wood constitutes the largest extent of winter’s indoor toxins. They make the eyes, nose, and throat painful and, in extreme cases, damage the central nervous system. Burning also produces fine particulate matter, or PM2.5. If these particles make it to the bloodstream or deep in the lungs, they are linked to breathing and heart diseases. While gas and wood-burning stoves have made headlines for indoor air pollution, ultrasonic humidifiers (超声波加湿器) are a lesser-known criminal. Andrea Dietrich, an environmental and water engineer at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, found in his studies that certain tap water can emit chemicals which are safe to drink in the amounts present, but that may not be the case when you breathe them in. “The lungs aren’t designed for these chemicals, which can block the lung passages and make it more difficult to breathe,” Dietrich says. Unlike outdoor pollution which is harder for individuals to control, people can reduce at least some of their indoor exposure. When cooking, turn on the range hood (抽油烟机). If it’s not too cold outside, open a window nearby. Using purified water instead of tap water can make ultrasonic humidifiers safer. Be sure to check all wood-burning heaters, fireplaces, and gas stoves often to keep them in good condition according to the manufacturers’ recommendations at fixed periods, and also ensure proper air exchange in newer-construction homes. 28. What is the common misconception of air pollution? A. It only exists outdoors. B. It is severer indoors. C. It impacts people more in winter. D. It mainly arises from industrial waste. 29. What is the main source of indoor toxins mentioned? A. Exhaust from the range hood. B. Pollutants from burning. C. PM2.5 from outdoor air. D. Chemicals from tap water. 30. Which of the following is a practical tip for improving indoor air quality? A. Purifying tap water. B. Cooking with electric stoves. C. Avoiding relocating frequently. D. Maintaining household appliances regularly. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To recommend ultrasonic humidifiers. B. To raise awareness of indoor air pollution. C. To compare indoor and outdoor air pollution. D. To introduce the sources of indoor air pollution. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出，许多人认为空气污染主要存在于室外，但实际上室内的空气污染可能更严重，尤其是在冬季。文章介绍了室内空气污染的来源以及减少室内空气污染的实用建议。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Most of us associate air pollution with the outdoors—from car or bus exhaust (废气) in a city to industrial waste or wildfire smoke. But you may not realize the air inside your home can be even more polluted, especially in winter. (我们大多数人将空气污染与户外联系在一起，从城市中的汽车或公共汽车尾气到工业废物或野火烟雾。但你可能没有意识到，家里的空气可能更受污染，尤其是在冬天)”可知，常见的误解是空气污染只存在于户外，故选A项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The burning of oil, gas, coal, or wood constitutes the largest extent of winter’s indoor toxins. (石油、天然气、煤炭或木材的燃烧构成了冬季室内毒素的最大来源)”可知，文章提到的主要室内毒素来源是燃烧产生的污染物，故选B项。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Be sure to check all wood-burning heaters, fireplaces, and gas stoves often to keep them in good condition according to the manufacturers’ recommendations at fixed periods, and also ensure proper air exchange in newer-construction homes. (确保根据制造商的建议定期检查所有木材燃烧加热器、壁炉和燃气炉，保持它们处于良好状态，并确保新建房屋中有适当的空气交换)”可知，定期维护家用电器是改善室内空气质量的实用建议之一，故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Most of us associate air pollution with the outdoors—from car or bus exhaust (废气) in a city to industrial waste or wildfire smoke. But you may not realize the air inside your home can be even more polluted, especially in winter. Since home is where we spend some 70 percent of our time —more if you’re one of the 35 percent of workers who do some or all business from there —these toxins (毒素) can have a larger impact on your health.(我们大多数人将空气污染与户外联系在一起，从城市中的汽车或公共汽车尾气到工业废物或野火烟雾。但你可能没有意识到，家里的空气可能更受污染，尤其是在冬天。因为我们70%的时间都是在家里度过的——如果你是35%在家里处理部分或全部业务的工人中的一员，那么你的时间就更多了——这些毒素对你的健康会有更大的影响)”及全文可知，作者的目的是提高人们对室内空气污染的意识，故选B项。 D Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega. It is cute and appears to be useful in increasing young children’s language skills. Developed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Tega sounds like a child, makes its body and face full of energy while storytelling and explains the stories on a screen with pictures. In an eight-week experiment, Tega read picture books to 67 children aged from 4 to 6 in weekly meetings lasting an hour. During the meetings, Tega asked questions to get knowledge of the listeners’ language skills, tested them on a word’s meaning or asked them to draw conclusions about a character. For example, Tega asked, “What do you think will happen to the boy?” Tega also recorded the facial expressions and body positions of the children to see how interested they were. One group of kids played with a personalized version (版本) of the robot, which improved each time it interacted with the kids, learning about their language skills from the conversations they had. For this group, Tega chose which book to read based on what it thought would be most suitable and informative for the children’s language level. Every second time, Tega would replace several words in the story for these children with more difficult words with similar meanings. A second group interacted with a non-personalized Tega that remembered the children each week, but chose stories to read at random (随机的) from its library of 81 picture books. For this group, the story difficulty increased every two weeks. A third group of kids didn’t interact with Tega at all. Several weeks after the last meeting, the team found that all the children who played with Tega had increased their vocabularies, but the personalized group learned the most words. Their error rate on a vocabulary test dropped by 23 percent, almost double that of the non-personalized group. 32. What do we know about Tega? A. It has a voice of an adult. B. It is connected to the Internet. C. It can tell stories in a lively way. D. It is mainly designed to entertain kids. 33. Why did Tega ask questions during the meetings? A. To keep the kids interested. B. To help kids better understand a story. C. To know about the kids’ language skills. D. To encourage the kids to think independently. 34. What do the results of the experiment show? A. Young kids really love interacting with others. B. The robot needs to be improved to work better. C. Children can increase their vocabularies quickly. D. The personalized version of the robot helps kids most. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. A new storytelling invention for kids. B. A personalized method for teaching. C. A study to research storytelling robots. D. A new way to increase kids’ vocabularies. 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项针对孩子们的新发明——讲故事的机器人Tega。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega. It is cute and appears to be useful in increasing young children’s language skills. Developed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Tega sounds like a child, makes its body and face full of energy while storytelling and explains the stories on a screen with pictures. (很久以前，研究人员梦想制造一个讲故事的机器人。它不仅可以娱乐小孩子，还可以帮助他们学好。这个梦想实现了。这个机器人叫Tega。它十分可爱，而且在提升幼儿语言技能方面似乎颇为有用。Tega由麻省理工学院（MIT）的一个团队研发而成，它说话声音像孩子，讲故事时身体和面部活力满满，还会在屏幕上搭配图片讲解故事。)”可知，Tega能生动地讲故事。故选C项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“During the meetings, Tega asked questions to get knowledge of the listeners’ language skills, tested them on a word’s meaning or asked them to draw conclusions about a character. (在集会期间，Tega会问一些问题来了解听众的语言技能，测试他们对一个单词的意思，或者让他们描述一个角色。)”可知，Tega在集会期间问问题是为了了解孩子们的语言能力。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Several weeks after the last meeting, the team found that all the children who played with Tega had increased their vocabularies, but the personalized group learned the most words. Their error rate on a vocabulary test dropped by 23 percent, almost double that of the non-personalized group. (在最后一次集会几周后，研究小组发现，所有和Tega一起玩的孩子的词汇量都增加了，但个性化小组学到了最多的单词。他们在词汇测试中的错误率下降了23%，几乎是非个性化组的两倍。)”可知，实验结果表明个性化版本的机器人对孩子们帮助最大。故选D项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega.(很久以前，研究人员梦想制造一个讲故事的机器人。它不仅可以使小孩子高兴，还可以帮助他们学习地好。这个梦想实现了。这个机器人叫Tega。)”可知，文章主要介绍了一项针对孩子们的新发明——讲故事的机器人Tega。因此本文的最佳标题是“A new storytelling invention for kids. (一项新的儿童讲故事发明)”。故选A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。 As much as 80 percent of premature (提前的) heart disease is preventable by making specific lifestyle choices. Some strategies, such as exercising and managing weight, are well known. ____36____ As experts pointed out, a small change in your everyday routine can potentially have a big impact in the long run. Get eight hours of sleep. When you’re not rested, everything that happens in your life is a lot more stressful. If you are lacking in sleep, our bodies also have more difficulty controlling blood pressure, inflammation (炎症) and sugar levels. ____37____ Engage in volunteer work. ____38____ Also, loneliness is a risk factor for heart health. Luckily, volunteering gets you out of the house and creates a social network. In the meanwhile it gives you a feeling of purpose in life, which is linked to a lower possibility of heart attack and stroke. ____39____ Exposure to this kind of pollution over time raises your risk of heart disease. Even short periods of exposure are unhealthy for people who already have other healthy risks, such as high blood pressures. Try to get your outdoor exercise far away from highways and industrial districts, and spend more time indoors when the air quality inside is poor. Eat breakfast. A recent study found that healthy people who didn’t have breakfast were almost three times more likely to have heart disease six years later than those who ate a large morning meal. If you’re eating a proper breakfast, you’re less likely to be hungry later and make poor food choices. ____40____ Choose whole-grain, low-fat breakfast foods and include fruit. A. Avoid polluted air.

E 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章讲述了几条在日常生活中预防心脏病的小策略：充足的睡眠，参与志愿者活动，避免污染的空气，膳食均衡的早餐。 【36题详解】 前文“Some strategies, such as exercising and managing weight, are well known.(一些策略，如锻炼和控制体重，是众所周知的)”提到的“锻炼和控制体重”是一些需要坚持的大策略，而设空后文“As experts pointed out, a small change in your everyday routine can potentially have a big impact in the long run.(专家指出，从长远来看，日常生活中的一个小改变可能会产生很大的影响)”则提出了一些小改变，由此推知，设空句应是一个承前启后的句子，既认可前文的大策略，也会转折引出“专家指出的小改变”。选项D“But others may be less familiar to you.(但有些（其他方法）人们可能不太熟悉)”为转折句，“others”呼应后文内容，在句意上可以承前启后。故选D项。 【37题详解】 前文“If you are lacking in sleep, our bodies also have more difficulty controlling blood pressure, inflammation and sugar levels.(如果你睡眠不足，我们的身体也会更难控制血压、炎症和血糖水平) 列举了睡眠不足对血压、炎症和血糖的影响，设空句紧跟其后，应是会将这些消极影响与文章核心“心脏”相联系，即讲述这些对心脏的危害。选项F“These factors can all have an impact on the function of heart.(这些因素都会对心脏功能产生影响)”中“These factors”指代前文内容，且讲述了不良影响。故选F项。 【38题详解】 前文“Engage in volunteer work.(参与志愿者工作)”为该段主旨句，提到了参与志愿者活动这一话题，设空句则应是讲述其好处，以使该策略具有说服力。选项G“Doing good for others helps increase your self-worth and relieves stress.(为他人做好事有助于提高你的自我价值，缓解压力)”提到了志愿服务对心理和社会层面的益处，具有说服力，置于段中，前后衔接紧密。故选G项。 【39题详解】 设空为该段主题句，应是该段的主旨概括。根据后文“Exposure to this kind of pollution over time raises your risk of heart disease. Even short periods of exposure are unhealthy for people who already have other healthy risks, such as high blood pressures.(长期暴露在这种污染中会增加患心脏病的风险。对于已经有其他健康风险的人来说，即使是短时间的接触也不健康，比如高血压)”讨论空气污染对心脏病的危害，由此可知，该段的主旨应是“避免污染空气”。选项A“Avoid polluted air.(避免污染空气)”直接点明主题。故选A项。 【40题详解】 后文“Choose whole-grain, low-fat breakfast foods and include fruit.(选择全麦、低脂的早餐食物，包括水果)”举例提到了具体的早餐安排，设空句作为其前文内容，应是其概况性内容，即膳食均衡的早餐。选项E“We need to eat a balanced diet as part of a healthy lifestyle.(作为健康生活方式的一部分，我们需要均衡饮食)”在句意上符合分析，与后文衔接自然。故选E项。 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。 William and Betty could be the luckiest couple in the country.

But he quickly found it hard to keep up with his lessons. His biggest problem was reading class. Before, he was good at reading, but now even short paragraphs made him tired. He couldn’t focus, and the school that once felt like a safe place now made him feel stressed. The more pressure to keep up with his classmates grew, and the poor grades shook his confidence. He tried his best, but the gap between what he could do and what he used to made him feel sad and worried. His reading teacher, Mr Green, noticed his struggles and stepped in. After school, Mr Green asked Sam to come to his office and said softly, “Sam, I know it’s tough, but everyone faces hard times. What matters is how you deal with them.” Then he added, “What’s your favorite thing to imagine?” Sam hesitated, then mumbled, “Space... I like thinking about rockets and planets.” Mr Green smiled. “Reading is like a spaceship, Sam. It can take you anywhere — but you need to learn the controls first.” Curious but unsure, Sam watched as Mr Green turned paragraphs into star charts. He used bright markers to circle tricky words, explaining them like “alien codes” to decode (解码). Sentences became “missions” to complete, and pages felt like “galaxies” to explore. For the first time, reading didn’t feel like a battle — it felt like an adventure. But progress was slow. A tough reading test left him tearful. “I’ll never get this right,” he said. Mr Green crouched (蹲下) down beside him. “Every mistake is just a step closer to the stars.” Encouraged, Sam kept practicing. He started seeing words as puzzle pieces, connecting them to form stories. After each small improvement, Mr Green gave him a sticker (贴纸) shaped like a rocket. “This is your prize. These small improvements will lead to great success. Believe in yourself,” he said. 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。 The turning point came during a reading class when Sam was handed a paper to finish. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, Sam stood in front of his class to deliver a presentation on overcoming challenges. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The turning point came during a reading class when Sam was handed a paper to finish. At first, the words on the paper for Sam seemed to blur together, and his heart was filled with frustration. Mr Green’s gentle hand on his shoulder calmed him, and he tried again. This time, he managed a full paragraph. Relief and pride surged through him — it felt like the first glimpse of light after months of darkness. Encouraged by this small victory, Sam began to push harder. Slowly but surely, he began to feel stronger, not just in his reading but in his belief that he could overcome this challenge. Months later, Sam stood in front of his class to deliver a presentation on overcoming challenges. His hands trembled slightly, but his voice was steady. “Almost a few months ago, I couldn’t manage to read without struggling.” The room grew silent as Sam shared his story, recalling the moments of despair, and the strong support of Mr Green, who believed in him when he couldn’t believe in himself. As he finished, the room erupted in applause, loud and heartfelt. In that moment, Sam realized his journey wasn’t just about healing himself — it was about giving others the courage to face their own struggles with hope and determination. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，以人物为线索。Sam大病初愈，回到学校，发现自己跟不上学习了，尤其是之前擅长的阅读课，这让他非常沮丧。阅读课老师Green先生利用Sam对太空的热爱来鼓励Sam阅读。经过一点点的进步，Sam最终克服了挑战，他还向全班同学分享自己的经历。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由续写第一段首句“转折点出现在一节阅读课上，Sam得到了一张需要完成的试卷。”可知，第一段可以描写Sam面对试卷时从不自信到自信的过程。 ②由续写第二段首句“几个月后，Sam站在全班面前做了一场关于克服挑战的演讲。”可知，第二段可以描写Sam演讲的内容以及他的感悟。 2. 续写线索： 阅读课上分发试卷——一开始感到受挫——Green先生鼓励——自信完成阅读试卷——做演讲——收获掌声——感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓励：encourage/support/inspire ②克服：overcome/get over ③颤抖：tremble/shake ④信任：believe in/trust 情绪类 ①沮丧：frustration/depression ②绝望：despair/ hopelessness 【点睛】【高分句型1】Slowly but surely, he began to feel stronger, not just in his reading but in his belief that he could overcome this challenge.(使用了不定式作宾语、that引导同位语从句) 【高分句型2】The room grew silent as Sam shared his story, recalling the moments of despair, and the strong support of Mr Green, who believed in him when he couldn’t believe in himself.

B After drawing blood and running a CT scan, the doctor asked, “What is a typical day like for you?” “I am a graduate with a tight schedule that usually keeps me at work late into the night,” I replied. Next, he turned to diet. I paused, “I only have coffee for breakfast. For lunch and dinner, I usually have fast food.” The doctor seemed aghast. He sighed heavily and continued to ask. As more questions followed about my stress levels, my unhealthy state began to sink in. It was easier to live a well-rounded life and stay healthy when I was an undergraduate. The cafeteria served healthy food options. And I had a group of friends to participate in social activities with. That all changed when I became a graduate. I lived off campus, and I didn’t have the time or energy to shop for groceries and cook. I didn’t spend as much time exercising and socializing. My drive to succeed blinded me to any potential problems with my lifestyle. Sometimes, I could feel that I was tired. But I continued on, giving my mind and body no rest, until my health problems worsened and drove me to the emergency room. That’s when the doctor peppered me with questions. He told me I had to change my lifestyle. No pill would fix my problems; eating well, exercising, and trying to minimize stress would be the only way. After that, I stopped working late into the night, and spent more time relaxing, sleeping, and preparing my own nutritious and healthy meals. Many times, I could hardly resist the urge to go back to my old routine. I placed sticky notes in my office and at home to remind myself that if I did that, I’d suffer consequences. Over time, I began to notice positive changes in my life. Now I have not only noticed improvements in my health, but I have found it easier to be productive at work. And I’m able to remain alert throughout the day. 24. What mainly caused the author’s health problems? A. Lack of exercise. B. Terrible daily routine. C. Fewer food options. D. Less interaction with others. 25. What does the underlined word “aghast” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Shocked. B. Confused. C. Relieved. D. Disturbed. 26. How was the author’s life as a graduate? A. He found no friend in social activities. B. He was short of motivation to succeed. C. He invested much effort in his career. D. He had enough time to enrich himself. 27. What message does the author deliver? A. It’s never too late to pursue one’s dream. B. Sacrificing health for one’s career is unavoidable. C. Achieving success calls for devotion and patience. D. It’s possible to strike a balance between work and life. C Most of us associate air pollution with the outdoors — from car or bus exhaust (废气) in a city to industrial waste or wildfire smoke. But you may not realize the air inside your home can be even more polluted, especially in winter. Since home is where we spend some 70 percent of our time — more if you’re one of the 35 percent of workers who do some or all business from there — these toxins (毒素) can have a larger impact on your health. The burning of oil, gas, coal, or wood constitutes the largest extent of winter’s indoor toxins. They make the eyes, nose, and throat painful and, in extreme cases, damage the central nervous system. Burning also produces fine particulate matter, or PM2.5. If these particles make it to the bloodstream or deep in the lungs, they are linked to breathing and heart diseases. While gas and wood-burning stoves have made headlines for indoor air pollution ultrasonic humidifiers (超声波加湿器) are a lesser-known criminal. Andrea Dietrich, an environmental and water engineer at Virginia Tech in Blacksburg, found in his studies that certain tap water can emit chemicals which are safe to drink in the amounts present, but that may not be the case when you breathe them in. “The lungs aren’t designed for these chemicals, which can block the lung passages and make it more difficult to breathe,” Dietrich says. Unlike outdoor pollution which is harder for individuals to control, people can reduce at least some of their indoor exposure. When cooking, turn on the range hood (抽油烟机). If it’s not too cold outside, open a window nearby. Using purified water instead of tap water can make ultrasonic humidifiers safer. Be sure to check all wood-burning heaters, fireplaces, and gas stoves often to keep them in good condition according to the manufacturers’ recommendations at fixed periods, and also ensure proper air exchange in newer-construction homes. 28. What is the common misconception of air pollution? A. It only exists outdoors. B. It is severer indoors. C. It impacts people more in winter. D. It mainly arises from industrial waste. 29. What is the main source of indoor toxins mentioned? A. Exhaust from the range hood. B. Pollutants from burning. C. PM2.5 from outdoor air. D. Chemicals from tap water. 30. Which of the following is a practical tip for improving indoor air quality? A. Purifying tap water. B. Cooking with electric stoves. C. Avoiding relocating frequently. D. Maintaining household appliances regularly. 31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To recommend ultrasonic humidifiers. B. To raise awareness of indoor air pollution. C. To compare indoor and outdoor air pollution. D. To introduce the sources of indoor air pollution. D Once upon a time, researchers dreamed of building a robot storyteller. It would not only entertain young children, but also help them learn well. This dream has come true. The robot is called Tega. It is cute and appears to be useful in increasing young children’s language skills. Developed by a team at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Tega sounds like a child, makes its body and face full of energy while storytelling and explains the stories on a screen with pictures. In an eight-week experiment, Tega read picture books to 67 children aged from 4 to 6 in weekly meetings lasting an hour. During the meetings, Tega asked questions to get knowledge of the listeners’ language skills, tested them on a word’s meaning or asked them to draw conclusions about a character. For example, Tega asked, “What do you think will happen to the boy?” Tega also recorded the facial expressions and body positions of the children to see how interested they were. One group of kids played with a personalized version (版本) of the robot, which improved each time it interacted with the kids, learning about their language skills from the conversations they had. For this group, Tega chose which book to read based on what it thought would be most suitable and informative for the children’s language level. Every second time, Tega would replace several words in the story for these children with more difficult words with similar meanings. A second group interacted with a non-personalized Tega that remembered the children each week, but chose stories to read at random (随机的) from its library of 81 picture books. For this group, the story difficulty increased every two weeks. A third group of kids didn’t interact with Tega at all. Several weeks after the last meeting, the team found that all the children who played with Tega had increased their vocabularies, but the personalized group learned the most words. Their error rate on a vocabulary test dropped by 23 percent, almost double that of the non-personalized group. 32. What do we know about Tega? A. It has a voice of an adult. B. It is connected to the Internet. C. It can tell stories in a lively way. D. It is mainly designed to entertain kids. 33. Why did Tega ask questions during the meetings? A. To keep the kids interested. B. To help kids better understand a story. C. To know about the kids’ language skills. D. To encourage the kids to think independently. 34. What do the results of the experiment show? A. Young kids really love interacting with others. B. The robot needs to be improved to work better. C. Children can increase their vocabularies quickly. D. The personalized version of the robot helps kids most. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. A new storytelling invention for kids. B. A personalized method for teaching. C. A study to research storytelling robots. D. A new way to increase kids’ vocabularies. 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。 As much as 80 percent of premature (提前的) heart disease is preventable by making specific lifestyle choices. Some strategies, such as exercising and managing weight, are well known. ____36____ As experts pointed out, a small change in your everyday routine can potentially have a big impact in the long run. Get eight hours of sleep. When you’re not rested, everything that happens in your life is a lot more stressful. If you are lacking in sleep, our bodies also have more difficulty controlling blood pressure, inflammation (炎症) and sugar levels. ____37____ Engage in volunteer work. ____38____ Also, loneliness is a risk factor for heart health. Luckily, volunteering gets you out of the house and creates a social network. In the meanwhile it gives you a feeling of purpose in life, which is linked to a lower possibility of heart attack and stroke. ____39____ Exposure to this kind of pollution over time raises your risk of heart disease. Even short periods of exposure are unhealthy for people who already have other healthy risks, such as high blood pressures. Try to get your outdoor exercise far away from highways and industrial districts, and spend more time indoors when the air quality inside is poor. Eat breakfast. A recent study found that healthy people who didn’t have breakfast were almost three times more likely to have heart disease six years later than those who ate a large morning meal. If you’re eating a proper breakfast, you’re less likely to be hungry later and make poor food choices. ____40____ Choose whole-grain, low-fat breakfast foods and include fruit. A. Avoid polluted air. B. Engage in indoor activities. C. These strategies are beneficial to our health. D. But others may be less familiar to you. E. We need to eat a balanced diet as part of a healthy lifestyle. F. These factors can all have an impact on the function of heart. G. Doing good for others helps increase your self-worth and relieves stress. 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。 William and Betty could be the luckiest couple in the country.

But he quickly found it hard to keep up with his lessons. His biggest problem was reading class. Before, he was good at reading, but now even short paragraphs made him tired. He couldn’t focus, and the school that once felt like a safe place now made him feel stressed. The more pressure to keep up with his classmates grew, and the poor grades shook his confidence. He tried his best, but the gap between what he could do and what he used to made him feel sad and worried. His reading teacher, Mr Green, noticed his struggles and stepped in. After school, Mr Green asked Sam to come to his office and said softly, “Sam, I know it’s tough, but everyone faces hard times. What matters is how you deal with them.” Then he added, “What’s your favorite thing to imagine?” Sam hesitated, then mumbled, “Space... I like thinking about rockets and planets.” Mr Green smiled. “Reading is like a spaceship, Sam. It can take you anywhere — but you need to learn the controls first.” Curious but unsure, Sam watched as Mr Green turned paragraphs into star charts. He used bright markers to circle tricky words, explaining them like “alien codes” to decode (解码). Sentences became “missions” to complete, and pages felt like “galaxies” to explore. For the first time, reading didn’t feel like a battle — it felt like an adventure. But progress was slow. A tough reading test left him tearful. “I’ll never get this right,” he said. Mr Green crouched (蹲下) down beside him. “Every mistake is just a step closer to the stars.” Encouraged, Sam kept practicing. He started seeing words as puzzle pieces, connecting them to form stories. After each small improvement, Mr Green gave him a sticker (贴纸) shaped like a rocket. “This is your prize. These small improvements will lead to great success. Believe in yourself,” he said. 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。 The turning point came during a reading class when Sam was handed a paper to finish. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Months later, Sam stood in front of his class to deliver a presentation on overcoming challenges. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$Anything interesting?
