第二部分阅读(共两节,满分40分)
第一节 (共11小题;每小题2.5分,满分27.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项( A、 B、C和D)中。选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该选项涂黑。
A
My husband Stephen and I had planned a trip to Lithuania and Poland, but his worsening heart condition prevented him from joining. He insisted I go alone, marking my first solo journey in over 20 years. Despite my fears, I set off, feeling like I was on a flying Noah’s Ark surrounded by couples.
In Vilnius, I found comfort in a website, which offered pay-what-you-choose walking tours. These tours became the highlight of my trip. I took five tours, each morning setting out to explore the city’s old town, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and sent Stephen photos each night. Our guide, Ieva, shared her deep knowledge of history and culture. I connected with travelers from various backgrounds, including a Polish professor who invited me to an art exhibit. I also traced my grandmother’s footsteps in Jewish Vilnius, visiting places she might have known. These tours, full of surprises, were perfect for a solo traveler, offering connection and flexibility. On my last day, Ieva gifted me a chocolate map of Lithuania for my enthusiastic participation.
I missed Stephen but grew increasingly confident in managing daily life challenges. I navigated apartment lockboxes, shopped in local supermarkets, and cooked, activities I was once less skillful at. In Poland, I continued with pay-what-you-choose tours, adapting to larger groups. I walked over 20,000 steps daily, often revisiting places from the tours or discovering street festivals. In Lodz, I took a private tour with Milena, who helped me find my family’s history, including the homes of my great aunts and their sufferings during the war.
Stephen was hospitalized just before I returned, and we spent his hospital stay looking at my trip photos and videos. His recovery was slow, but my independent travels allowed me to manage our home smoothly, benefiting us both. This journey not only reconnected me with my roots but also empowered me with a newfound confidence in my ability to travel and live on my own.
1. Why did the author choose to travel alone?
A. She had a tight budget. B. She argued with her husband.
C. Her husband feared to travel abroad. D. Her husband was in bad health.
2. What can we learn about the author from paragraph 2?
A. She took all tours on her own. B. She bonded with some travellers.
C. She lost contact with her husband. D. She encountered many challenges.
3. Which of the following best describes the author?
A. Ambitious. B. Independent. C. Warm-hearted. D. Generous.
B
My mother died of breast cancer when she was merely 50 in 1970. Afterwards, the comment repeated most often was: “You’ll need to be careful for the rest of your life because it may have been passed to you.” In 1994, the first ever breast cancer gene testing arrived. I jumped right to it and tested negative. I’m thankful for the science that has given me this preventive screening (筛查). Good for me, but is it good for everyone?
Here’s the catch. Research on genetic disease has been based mostly on European people, like me. The same went to the mapping of the human genes. The problem is that we know little about how new treatments might work for people of other races. If we diversify patients in clinical trials, we can realize the promise of personalized medicine for everyone, not just white patients. Faced with the unfair phenomena in medical research, what should we do to resolve the problem?
Not only do we need more diverse populations participating in research but we also need diversity among biomedical researchers and medical professionals to make efforts. That makes research stronger and builds trust with diverse communities. A medical team is working on this now. They are building a diverse next generation of gene editing researchers by teaching high school and community college students from different backgrounds about promising technologies like gene editing to encourage them to become future researchers. This sort of educational outreach can also help to build trust in the medical and research communities. The team leader, John Cooper, PhD, has been outspoken about the current inequalities of delivering new technologies to all people at a fair cost.
Numerous scientists and medical leaders are working to change the situation. While science wasn’t yet far enough along to save my mother, I have harvested the benefits of advanced research and so should we all.
4. What is the function of paragraph 1?
A. To explain the cause of her mother’s cancer. B. To show her concerns over medical inequalities.
C. To indicate the side effects of genetic testing. D. To emphasize the progress in the medical field.
5. What does the underlined words “the catch” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. A previous study. B. An urgent appeal. C. An underlying issue. D. A workable solution.
6. What might enable new treatments to benefit all?
A. Conducting research on genetic diseases. B. Delivering speeches to interested students.
C. Building confidence in potential medical researchers. D. Popularizing technologies in various communities.
7. What is the author’s attitude towards the advanced research?
A. Supportive. B. Dismissive. C. Opposed. D. Impartial.
C
The term sponge (海绵) city might bring to mind a creative image of a city made of sponges, but actual definition of sponge cities isn’t as literal as it seems.
Sponge city is a term that originated in China to describe urban spaces that are re-designed with areas for greenery. They absorb storm-water the way a sponge takes up excess water! These areas deals wit flooding naturally by replacing impermeable roads with permeable (透水的) green spaces. These “sponges” cool cities, cleanse air pollution and remove dirt from storm-water before they enter our drinking water sources. Several tools and technologies can be adopted in a sponge city. Employing sustainable methods like covering walls and roofs with plants is one method. Another technique uses layers of permeable soil covered by greenery that traps rainwater and run-off.
These and other concepts are used throughout the world under different names like green infrastructure (基建), low-impact development, and sensitive urban design. The approach, regardless of the name, focuses on controlling flooding and water pollution. Many cities around the world are suffering from flood events. In recent years, 60% of China’s large-sized cities have flooded—killing hundreds and displacing more than a million people.
Flooding has increased because of the overuse of concrete surfaces, called “gray infrastructure”. Landscape architects realized the need to make cities more “spongy” by working with their local climate and natural features to design appropriate solutions.
In Philadelphia, a project called “Green City, Clean Waters” was developed after the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) enforced the federal Clean Water Act there in 2011. To date, the city has “greened” at least 2,200 acres of land and used a mix of solutions like rain gardens, restoring wetlands, and green infrastructure in their plan.
However, implementing sponge plans is often difficult because policymakers often need to be convinced to enact them. Despite this, cities around the world are thriving after the use of the Sponge City approach.
8. What is the primary goal of the sponge city design?
A. To preserve biodiversity. B. To fight against flooding.
C. To gather more rainwater. D. To improve living standard.
9. What can be learned about a sponge city?
A. It is made of eco-friendly sponge materials.
B. It is a new kind of city only existing in China.
C. It manages rainwater by increasing permeable spaces.
D. It requires the complete removal of traditional buildings.
10. Why does the author mention Philadelphia?
A. To introduce the origin of the sponge city concept.
B To emphasize the importance of the Clean Water Act.
C. To give an example of an effective sponge city project.
D. To explain the difficulties in carrying out sponge plans.
11. Which might be the best title for the text?
A. Development of the Term “Sponge City”. B. Sustainable Urban Planning Strategies.
C. Shortcomings of Gray Urban Infrastructure. D. Benefit and Success of Sponge City Plans.

Turn off unnecessary lights at night in the spring and fall when birds are migrating. You can also talk to your parents about turning off the lights at their high- rise offices.

As the school year wrapped up and the first days of summer vacation stretched out before them, Max, Ava, and Sam had a perfect day planned at their usual community park. This tidy little park was their go - to spot for unwinding and just enjoying some precious leisure time.
Max rushed ahead with a soccer ball under his arm, Ava and Sam trailing closely behind, full of energy. It was the kind of day that promised endless fun and carefree laughter. But as they stepped into the park, their heart sank. The once - beloved playground was now a chaotic mess of discarded trash (乱扔的垃圾) — candy wrappers stuck in the slide’s metal bars, plastic bottles rolling in the wind, and chip bags lying underfoot.
“Look at this!” Ava shouted in disbelief as she pointed to the garbage near the swings.
Max’s face darkened with frustration. The three friends stood frozen, their eyes scanning the playground area. The once clean slides and swings were now buried under a layer of candy wrappers and plastic bottles. Ava cast a glance (瞥一眼) at the walking trails, where garbage seemed to have taken over, with discarded bags and cans lying everywhere. Sam looked out at the grassy fields — a disaster. The park was vast, but every corner seemed to have been touched by the carelessness of others.
“Who would be so thoughtless?” Max whispered, shaking his head.
Sam kicked a plastic bottle in anger, sending it flying across the grass. “It’s not just thoughtless — it’s disrespectful.”
Ava sighed thoughtfully but suddenly her face lit up. “We can’t just leave it like this. Why don’t we do something about it? We can, say, form a Cleanup Squad (清洁小分队)…” she said, her voice soft but determined.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Max and Sam exchanged an excited glance.

My mother died of breast cancer when she was merely 50 in 1970. Afterwards, the comment repeated most often was: “You’ll need to be careful for the rest of your life because it may have been passed to you.” In 1994, the first ever breast cancer gene testing arrived. I jumped right to it and tested negative. I’m thankful for the science that has given me this preventive screening (筛查). Good for me, but is it good for everyone?
Here’s the catch. Research on genetic disease has been based mostly on European people, like me. The same went to the mapping of the human genes. The problem is that we know little about how new treatments might work for people of other races. If we diversify patients in clinical trials, we can realize the promise of personalized medicine for everyone, not just white patients. Faced with the unfair phenomena in medical research, what should we do to resolve the problem?
Not only do we need more diverse populations participating in research, but we also need diversity among biomedical researchers and medical professionals to make efforts. That makes research stronger and builds trust with diverse communities. A medical team is working on this now. They are building a diverse next generation of gene editing researchers by teaching high school and community college students from different backgrounds about promising technologies like gene editing to encourage them to become future researchers. This sort of educational outreach can also help to build trust in the medical and research communities. The team leader, John Cooper, PhD, has been outspoken about the current inequalities of delivering new technologies to all people at a fair cost.
Numerous scientists and medical leaders are working to change the situation. While science wasn’t yet far enough along to save my mother, I have harvested the benefits of advanced research and so should we all.
4. What is the function of paragraph 1?
A. To explain the cause of her mother’s cancer. B. To show her concerns over medical inequalities.
C. To indicate the side effects of genetic testing. D. To emphasize the progress in the medical field.
5. What does the underlined words “the catch” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. A previous study. B. An urgent appeal. C. An underlying issue. D. A workable solution.
6. What might enable new treatments to benefit all?
A. Conducting research on genetic diseases. B. Delivering speeches to interested students.
C. Building confidence in potential medical researchers. D. Popularizing technologies in various communities.
7. What is the author’s attitude towards the advanced research?
A. Supportive. B. Dismissive. C. Opposed. D. Impartial.

【5题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线短语所在句子“Here’s the catch. Research on genetic disease has been based mostly on European people, like me.(这就是问题所在。遗传疾病的研究主要基于像我这样的欧洲人)”可知,遗传疾病的研究主要基于像作者这样的欧洲人,可以推测出,“the catch”指的是隐藏的问题或潜在的难题,即当前遗传疾病研究主要基于欧洲人种,忽略了种族多样性带来的影响。因此,C选项“An underlying issue(潜在的问题)”符合上下文语境。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“If we diversify patients in clinical trials, we can realize the promise of personalized medicine for everyone, not just white patients.(如果我们在临床试验中使患者多样化,我们就可以实现个性化医疗对每个人的承诺,而不仅仅是白人患者)”可知,如果我们在临床试验中使病人多样化,我们就可以为每个人实现个性化药物的承诺,而不仅仅是白人患者。由此可知,在不同的社区推广技术可以使新的治疗方法惠及所有人。故选D。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“While science wasn’t yet far enough along to save my mother, I have harvested the benefits of advanced research and so should we all(尽管科学尚未发展到足以拯救我母亲的地步,但我已经从先进的研究中获益,我们也都应该如此)”可知,虽然科学还不足以拯救我的母亲,但我收获了先进研究的好处,我们所有人都应该如此。由此推知,作者对先进的研究持支持的态度。故选A。
C
The term sponge (海绵) city might bring to mind a creative image of a city made of sponges, but actual definition of sponge cities isn’t as literal as it seems.
Sponge city is a term that originated in China to describe urban spaces that are re-designed with areas for greenery. They absorb storm-water the way a sponge takes up excess water! These areas deals wit flooding naturally by replacing impermeable roads with permeable (透水的) green spaces. These “sponges” cool cities, cleanse air pollution and remove dirt from storm-water before they enter our drinking water sources. Several tools and technologies can be adopted in a sponge city. Employing sustainable methods like covering walls and roofs with plants is one method. Another technique uses layers of permeable soil covered by greenery that traps rainwater and run-off.
These and other concepts are used throughout the world under different names like green infrastructure (基建), low-impact development, and sensitive urban design. The approach, regardless of the name, focuses on controlling flooding and water pollution. Many cities around the world are suffering from flood events. In recent years, 60% of China’s large-sized cities have flooded—killing hundreds and displacing more than a million people.
Flooding has increased because of the overuse of concrete surfaces, called “gray infrastructure”. Landscape architects realized the need to make cities more “spongy” by working with their local climate and natural features to design appropriate solutions.
In Philadelphia, a project called “Green City, Clean Waters” was developed after the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) enforced the federal Clean Water Act there in 2011. To date, the city has “greened” at least 2,200 acres of land and used a mix of solutions like rain gardens, restoring wetlands, and green infrastructure in their plan.
However, implementing sponge plans is often difficult because policymakers often need to be convinced to enact them. Despite this, cities around the world are thriving after the use of the Sponge City approach.
8. What is the primary goal of the sponge city design?
A. To preserve biodiversity. B. To fight against flooding.
C. To gather more rainwater. D. To improve living standard.
9. What can be learned about a sponge city?
A. It is made of eco-friendly sponge materials.
B. It is a new kind of city only existing in China.
C. It manages rainwater by increasing permeable spaces.
D. It requires the complete removal of traditional buildings.
10. Why does the author mention Philadelphia?
A. To introduce the origin of the sponge city concept.
B. To emphasize the importance of the Clean Water Act.
C. To give an example of an effective sponge city project.
D. To explain the difficulties in carrying out sponge plans.
11. Which might be the best title for the text?
A. Development of the Term “Sponge City”. B. Sustainable Urban Planning Strategies.
C. Shortcomings of Gray Urban Infrastructure. D. Benefit and Success of Sponge City Plans.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. C 11. D

These areas deals wit flooding naturally by replacing impermeable roads with permeable (透水的) green spaces. These “sponges” cool cities, cleanse air pollution and remove dirt from storm-water before they enter our drinking water sources.(海绵城市是一个起源于中国的术语,用来描述城市空间被重新设计成绿色区域。它们吸收雨水的方式就像海绵吸收多余的水一样!这些地区通过用可渗透的绿地取代不透水的道路,自然地应对洪水。这些“海绵”给城市降温,净化空气污染,在雨水进入我们的饮用水源之前清除它们)”以及第三段“These and other concepts are used throughout the world under different names like green infrastructure (基建), low-impact development, and sensitive urban design. The approach, regardless of the name, focuses on controlling flooding and water pollution.(这些概念和其他概念在世界各地以不同的名称使用,如绿色基础设施、低影响发展和敏感的城市设计。不管名字是什么,这种方法的重点是控制洪水和水污染)”可知,海绵城市设计的首要目标是对抗洪水。故选B项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了秦腔演员侯艳曾因流行音乐影响而放弃舞台,但随着文化复兴,她重新恢复对秦腔的热爱和自信。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:作为一名秦腔演员,侯艳曾对自己作为地方民间戏剧表演者的身份感到羞愧,尤其是在20世纪90年代,那时流行歌曲和西方音乐在中国西北地区很受欢迎。空处引导限定性定语从句,修饰先行词a time,且在定语从句中作时间状语,所以用关系副词when引导该从句。故填when。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:秦腔起源于陕西和甘肃汉族的古老民歌和舞蹈,是中国现存最悠久的戏曲形式之一。固定短语originate from意为“起源于…”。故填from。
【44题详解】
考查时态以及主谓一致。句意:秦腔起源于陕西和甘肃汉族的古老民歌和舞蹈,是中国现存最悠久的戏曲形式之一。句子为主系表结构,句子陈述一般事实,所以句子时态用一般现在时态,主语为Qinqiang Opera,所以be动词用is。故填is。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:但在过去,流行音乐和西方音乐的潮流严重冲击了秦腔。在这段艰难时期,侯不得不离开她所热爱的戏曲舞台。have no choice but to do sth.意为“别无选择,只能……”。故填to leave。
【46题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随后,她从事了几份工作以维持生计,包括当服务员、经营服装店和出演小电影角色。空处需要动名词和working以及acting并列作介词的宾语。故填running。
【47题详解】
考查让步状语从句。句意:无论她做什么,她从未失去对秦腔的热爱。空处引导让步状语从句,此处表示“无论她做了什么”,所以用whatever“无论什么”引导该从句,位于句首首字母大写,故填Whatever。
【48题详解】
考查副词。句意:幸运的是,情况开始好转。空处需要副词修饰整个句子。该词位于句首,首字母大写。故填Thankfully。
【49题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:秦腔于2006年被列入国家级非物质文化遗产,近年来逐渐恢复了人气。空处需要非谓语动词作状语,该动词与其逻辑主语Qinqiang Opera之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词作状语。该词位于句首,首字母大写。故填Listed。
【50题详解】
考查名词。句意:秦腔于2006年被列入国家级非物质文化遗产,近年来逐渐恢复了人气。空处需要名词作介词to的宾语,popular的名词形式为popularity“流行”。故填popularity。
【51题详解】
考查时态。句意:秦腔在过去几十年里的复兴反映了国家的文化发展。空处为句子的谓语动词,根据时间状语in the past decades可知,句子时态为现在完成时态。主语The comeback of Qinqiang Opera和该动词之间为主动关系。故填has reflected。

53. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As the school year wrapped up and the first days of summer vacation stretched out before them, Max, Ava, and Sam had a perfect day planned at their usual community park. This tidy little park was their go - to spot for unwinding and just enjoying some precious leisure time.
Max rushed ahead with a soccer ball under his arm, Ava and Sam trailing closely behind, full of energy. It was the kind of day that promised endless fun and carefree laughter. But as they stepped into the park, their heart sank. The once - beloved playground was now a chaotic mess of discarded trash (乱扔的垃圾) — candy wrappers stuck in the slide’s metal bars, plastic bottles rolling in the wind, and chip bags lying underfoot.
“Look at this!” Ava shouted in disbelief as she pointed to the garbage near the swings.
Max’s face darkened with frustration. The three friends stood frozen, their eyes scanning the playground area. The once clean slides and swings were now buried under a layer of candy wrappers and plastic bottles. Ava cast a glance (瞥一眼) at the walking trails, where garbage seemed to have taken over, with discarded bags and cans lying everywhere. Sam looked out at the grassy fields — a disaster. The park was vast, but every corner seemed to have been touched by the carelessness of others.
“Who would be so thoughtless?” Max whispered, shaking his head.
Sam kicked a plastic bottle in anger, sending it flying across the grass. “It’s not just thoughtless — it’s disrespectful.”
Ava sighed thoughtfully but suddenly her face lit up. “We can’t just leave it like this. Why don’t we do something about it? We can, say, form a Cleanup Squad (清洁小分队)…” she said, her voice soft but determined.
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。
Max and Sam exchanged an excited glance.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Unexpectedly, other parkgoers joined in as they did the cleanup.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Max and Sam exchanged an excited glance. “That’s a great idea, Ava!” Max exclaimed. Sam nodded in agreement, his eyes shining with determination. Without hesitation, they quickly divided the tasks. Max ran to fetch some trash bags from his nearby home. Ava and Sam started collecting the larger pieces of garbage first, like the chip bags and plastic bottles. As they worked, Ava hummed a little tune, and the others joined in. Their laughter and songs filled the park, making the cleanup seem more like a fun game.
Unexpectedly, other parkgoers joined in as they did the cleanup. An elderly couple, who were taking a stroll, saw what they were doing and decided to lend a hand. A group of kids playing nearby also came over, eager to help make the park clean again. With more people joining, the cleanup went much faster. Before long, the playground was clean once more. The slides and swings sparkled in the sun, and the grassy fields were free of trash. Max, Ava, and Sam looked at each other, beaming with pride. They realized that with everyone’s effort, they could make a difference and keep their beloved park beautiful.
