When the two brothers reached an agreement, they quickly ran back to their grandfather’s house, got the tools they needed to make the cane, and ran back to the woods. In the woods, they worked hard to find a straight tree and set to work. After cutting the tree down, they took the bark (树皮) off with a knife. After an hour, a hand-made cane was finally made, which was smooth and was just of the right size. The two brothers were sure that their grandpa would love it! Jack and Berlin handed the cane to Grandpa. The moment grandpa took the cane with shaking hands, he cried with joy, “This is made by my grandsons themselves. How precious it is!” Jack shouted, “Grandpa, we hope this cane will help you stand up and come with us to explore the woods!” Grandpa smiled at the boys and seized the cane in his right hand, trying to stand up. To their amazement, he did it! Everyone was excited to see grandpa stand up. At that moment, Jack noticed grandfather’s eyes were wet.

B Katie Ledecky, born in Washington, D. C. in 1997, is widely regarded as one of the greatest swimmers in history. Inspired by her mother, a former college swimmer, she started swimming at six and quickly showed extraordinary talent. Her breakthrough came at the 2012 London Olympics when, as a 15-year-old, she shocked the world by winning gold in the 800m freestyle, defeating then-world champion Kate Ziegler. This victory marked the beginning of an exceptional career that includes seven Olympic gold medals and 21 World Championship titles. During her high school years, Ledecky broke numerous long-standing American records, earning her an athletic scholarship to Stanford University. At Stanford, she continued to dominate (主宰) the pool, securing eight NCAA titles and setting 15 NCAA records. The 2016 Rio Olympics solidified (巩固) her legendary status. Ledecky claimed three individual gold medals in the 200m,400m, and 800m freestyle events, breaking world records in the 400m and 800m. She also won gold in the 4x200m relay, making her the most decorated female swimmer of the Games. Her performance surpassed all other athletes except Michael Phelps. At the Tokyo 2020 Olympics, Ledecky shifted her focus to longer distances after the 1500m freestyle was added to the program. Although she lost the 400m title to Australia’ s Ariarne Titmus, she successfully defended her 800m crown and made history as the first women’s 1500m Olympic champion. At present, Ledecky is still training to keep herself in good condition. Her journey from a young swimmer inspired by her mother to a global icon continues to inspire athletes worldwide. 24. What marked the beginning of Katie Ledecky’s extraordinary career? A. Earning an athletic scholarship to Stanford. B. Breaking American records during high school. C. Winning eight NCAA titles at Stanford University. D. Defeating Kate Ziegler in the 2012 London Olympics. 25. What does the underlined word “decorated” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Awarded. B. Criticized. C. Educated. D. Trained. 26. Why did Katie Ledecky shift her focus to longer distances at the Tokyo 2020 Olympics? A. Because she tried to break more NCAA records. B. Because she aimed to challenge Michael Phelps’record. C. Because she wanted to compete in the newly added swimming event. D. Because she decided to avoid competing against Australia’s Ariane Titmus. 27. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Ledecky’s mother still coaches her daily. B. Ledecky will retire from swimming soon. C. Ledecky has stopped breaking world records. D. Ledecky aims to keep competing at top levels. C Looking back is a wonderful thing. It allows you to see what has led you here and, hopefully, how society has changed and improved. Take, for instance, my career goal. First, I wanted, in 1999, to be a “farmer”, soon archaeologist, then driving instructor and somewhere along the way, footballer. I had grown up in a football-loving family. I remember the exact moment when I said “I’m sad I can’t be a footballer” while watching the game with Dad as a pre-teen. He asked why not. “Because I’m not a boy.” He immediately responded, “You can, if you want to.” “Yeah, I suppose so,” I sighed, “but no one watches women’s football.” Looking back, I can see exactly why I felt like that. At school, there was an unwritten rule that sports like hockey and netball were “girl” sports and rugby and football were for the boys. I’d never seen a women’s football match on TV. You see, you can’t be what you can’t see, and lack of representation leads, at best, to misunderstanding, and at worst, fear and negative opinions. Today, the Lionesses will take on Scotland in the World Cup, and people across the world will tune in — over 950,000 tickets have been sold so far. But, although women’s football is one of FIFA’s best investments · with a pound for pound return, the majority of female players are earning under a fair wage. Some argue that’s because viewing statistics are lower than those of men’s, but the rise in support shows the demand is there. Hopefully, more investment will push female football forward. Today, I’ll be cheering on the Lionesses, because it’ll mean talented, skillful female footballers being broadcast into millions of homes and maybe, just maybe, a little girl believing that she can also be a Lioness one day. 28. Which of the following best describes the author’s career goals? A. Realistic. B. Changeable. C. Consistent. D. Long-sought. 29. Why didn’t the author believe she could be a footballer? A. She was not talented enough. B. People lost faith in women’s football. C. Girls were forbidden to play football. D. She had no example to follow. 30. What can we know about women’s football from Paragraph 5? A. It’s better paid than men’s. B. It is increasingly popular. C. It has no market demand. D. It is not profitable. 31. What does the text mainly want to tell us? A. Society advances with time. B. Women deserve equal rights. C. Each goal is worth pursuing. D. Hard work always pays off. D Cancer diagnosis（诊断） is often time-consuming, but OmniPT, an AI-powered pathology (病理学) assistant developed by Zhejiang University, now enables faster and more precise diagnoses. Pathology exams · laboratory tests on tissue or cell samples — are poorly understood by the public. Pathologists analyze these samples to detect diseases but rarely interact directly with patients. China faces a severe shortage of pathology professionals. Zhang Jing from the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine stated, “Our country requires 150,000 to 200,000 pathologists, but only around 30.000 are officially registered.” Additionally, regional imbalances exist: cities like Beijing and Shanghai have smaller gaps, while remote areas suffer significant shortages. To address this, OmniPT was created. It combines vision and language models to assist pathologists in repetitive tasks (handling over 90% of such work), freeing them to focus on critical decisions. For example, counting mitosis (有丝分裂) — a key step in diagnosing gliomas (胶质瘤) — takes humans 30-60 minutes, but OmniPT completes it in under 10 seconds. When uncertain results arise, it flags them for pathologists’ final review. Currently used at Zhejiang University’s hospital, OmniPT has achieved lab breakthroughs. It classifies cancer types, detects cancer spread into blood vessels or nerves, and predicts disease progression with 80-90% accuracy. Zhang emphasized that AI serves as a tool, not a replacement: “We control it. By making use of AI, we deal with challenges in pathology — especially in remote areas or teams with less experience — promoting efficiency, cutting costs, and minimizing errors.” 32. What is OmniPT primarily designed to do? A. Reduce the cost of medical research. B. Replace human pathologists entirely. C. Help doctors with quicker cancer diagnosis. D. Train doctors in advanced cities like Shanghai. 33. What is a major challenge faced by China’s pathology field according to the text? A. A severe shortage of registered pathologists. B. High expenses in AI technology advancement. C. Insufficient public awareness of pathology tests. D. Lack of advanced medical laboratory equipment. 34. How does OmniPT assist pathologists in mitosis counting? A. By checking scans of blood vessels and nerves. B. By finishing rapidly and flagging uncertain results. C. By removing the need for human involvement entirely. D. By requiring pathologists’ confirmation for every diagnosis. 35. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text? A. To discuss the moral challenges of AI replacing human pathologists. B. To emphasize the importance of pathology in public health education. C. To introduce how AI improves cancer diagnosis efficiency and accuracy. D. To criticize the inefficiency of traditional pathology examination methods. 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。 With gas prices rising and airport security lines snaking longer than ever, why not book your next domestic vacation on a train? Compared to other alternatives, it’s comfortable and relaxing. Here is some advice on how to make a trip by rail as pleasant as possible. Plan ahead. Most long-distance trains, especially the sleeping car accommodations, sell out very quickly. 36 But no matter when you travel, it’s a good idea to make your reservations at least 90 days in advance. Use a travel agent. Consider turning your travel plan over to a travel agent and letting him double-check all the details, make suggestions, and then handle the actual reservations. A good one can sometimes find you discounted tickets. 37 Then you won’t have to walk through several cars on a moving train three times a day for your meals. Bring a blanket. When you’re riding on trains, you won’t be provided with a blanket for free, even if your trip is an overnight one. 38 In the summer in particular, the air conditioning can make them quite cold. Arrive early. Most trains operate just once a day and some run only three times a week, so missing yours can be a disaster. 39 Note: The times listed on the schedules are departure times, not arrival times. Have fun. 40 Read a book, knit, do a crossword puzzle, or simply watch the world unfold outside the window. To calculate your speed as you do, divide 3,600(the number of seconds in an hour)by the number of seconds it takes you to travel one mile(the distance between two mileposts). If it takes the train 53 seconds to travel one mile, you’re going 67.92 mph. A. Train trips aren’t for impatient types. B. You’ll have views from both sides of the train. C. The temperature on rail cars is often hard to control. D. That’s particularly true during busy summermonths. E. You might have to wait longer than 24 hours to catch the next one. F. Chances are the cost will be a lot less than the cost of one bedroom G. He may also book you in a sleeping car that’s right next to the diner. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共三节，满分 45 分）第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 1 分，满分 15 分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My husband, our children and I have had wonderful camping experiences over the past ten years.

Jack and his brother Berlin were filled with excitement as they thought of visiting their grandparents again. The big day came at last. After the happy family got ready, they set out for the grandparents’ eagerly. On the way, the brothers were excitedly talking about the fun they had with grandparents. A little blue house with a tall white chimney finally appeared. Behind the property was the forest carrying their good memories with Grandpa. They arrived at the driveway, at the end of which Grandma was waiting for them joyfully. Jack and Berlin each gave Grandma a big hug and then swept to the living room, shouting excitedly “Grandpa, we are back!” Seeing his grandsons, Grandpa was wild with joy and tried to get up with all his strength from the chair but in vain. A helpless expression flashed on his face. Grandma explained that his health was declining rapidly and maybe couldn’t stand up on his own forever. But Grandpa declared stubbornly (倔强地), “I can!” Certainly, he was stuck in his boyish way. Mum and grandparents were happy to meet again after a long time. They sat together and chatted about what happened recently. The brothers were soon bored with adult conversation, went out and wandered into the forest. Tall trees stretched up to the heavens with large branches crossing each other, while young ones rose straight like soldiers. Grandpa was once a great explorer full of wisdom. He could tell where the birds came from only by their calls and songs. The trees, birds, lizards, lots of bugs... How many merry moments they spent with Grandpa in the kingdom! But now Grandpa couldn’t get up. This made them worried. “We’d think out a way to cheer him up.” Jack said. “Grandpa is a bird lover, and we can catch him a bird.” Berlin suggested. “But he hates birds being caged!” Jack shook his head. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为 150 左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Then a bright idea came to Jack’s mind. “Why not make a cane (拐杖) out of a young tree!”. Jack and Berlin handed the cane to Grandpa. $$
