When will the production of petrol cars stop? A. By 2050. B. By 2030. C. By 2025. 19. What does the speaker suggest as an alternative to current plastic bottles? A. Glass bottles. B. Metal bottles. C. Wood bottles. 20. What is the main idea of the talk? A. Dangers of global warming. B. New rules about electric cars. C. Ways to protect the environment. 【答案】18. C 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【原文】We stand at a great moment in our history. We have for a long time known of the dangers of global warming, but sadly little action has been taken to respond to it. However, we have listened to our children campaigning all across the world, and we have chosen to listen to them, and make hard choices. We have set a date of 2025 for petrol-based cars to stop production. In addition, our governments will bring in a vehicle exchange system. It will allow drivers to trade in their car for an electric model at no additional cost. We see this as an urgent action that needs to be taken. We cannot put profits ahead of the health of our planet. For too long, the industries that pollute the most have dragged their heels. Well no more! In addition, we will also be banning all plastic bottles by 2030. Unless producers can find a way to make plastic break down, we would suggest a return to glass bottles. They can easily be reused and recycled with no harm to the environment. Plastic has invaded our food supply, and we need to remove it urgently before it destroys our planet’s ecosystem. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下面短文，从各题所给的A 、B、C和D四个选项中选出符合题意的最佳选项。 A From the food ingredients, the placing on the plate to the background music and much more, chefs and companies in the UK are planning to change our dining experiences, and the trends in dining out. Entomophagy This is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field. A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the Table Digital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining — music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes — as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music. 21. What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food? A. The better taste of protein from insects. B. The popularity of some chefs in London. C. The possibility of main food disappearing. D. The performance of some chefs’ experiments. 22. Why is the color of plates changed digitally? A. To make the food healthy. B. To make the food attractive. C. To make the plate funny. D. To make the plate eco-friendly. 23. Why do some people prefer the experimental meal? A. To connect senses in a new way. B. To bring colorful plates together. C. To combine food with digital products. D. To carry out technology experiments. 【答案】21. C 22. B 23. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了一些新的就餐趋势。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice.(许多人意识到我们的许多基本食物可能在未来几十年消失，昆虫可以为人们提供良好的蛋白质来代替动物肉类，所以他们认为昆虫是一个很好的选择)”可知，有些人以昆虫为食的原因是主要食物消失的可能性。故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better.(我们将能够用数字技术改变盘子的颜色，因为我们知道颜色可以改变食物的味道，或者让它看起来更好)”可知，底片的颜色用数码来改变是为了使食物有吸引力。故选B。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining—music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes—as a whole meal.(越来越多的人对寻找感官之间的新联系感兴趣，他们喜欢这种实验性的食物。他们认为食物不仅仅是吃进嘴里的东西，而是一种完整的体验。他们把用餐——音乐、灯光、员工制服、温度变化——看作是一顿完整的饭)”可知，有些人更喜欢实验餐是为了以一种新的方式连接感官。故选A。 B★ Ivy Scott was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (左心发育不全综合征), meaning only half of her heart functions properly. Despite spending her first birthday in hospital undergoing surgery, Ivy has dedicated to fundraising and delivering presents to children at Alder Hey Hospital in Liverpool since she was two. Ivy’s condition was detected when her mother, Clare Bouch, did a 20-week pregnancy scan. Further tests revealed the rare condition, which affects only 1 in 4,000 babies. At just eight days old, Ivy underwent her first open-heart surgery. Clare recalled, “Seeing her after surgery was heartbreaking. She was so swollen that she seemed to have boxed ten rounds with Mike Tyson. Though covered in wires and tubes, she made it through eventually.” Ivy had another surgery the following days and spent her first birthday in hospital. Since then, she has recovered gradually. Under the care of her mother, she could do moderate exercise. Supported by the charity Tiny Tickers, Clare said, “She’s done so well and always has a smile for everyone.” Ivy began her gifts deliveries in 2018 when she was two, handing out 90 gift bags containing biscuits and personal care items. In 2019, despite a broken leg, she delivered teddy bears to the intensive care unit (ICU). In 2020 and 2021, Ivy raised £1,000 each year through online fundraising. In 2022, she returned to delivering presents, bringing books as gifts. And in 2023, she raised another £1,000 and took in gifts of baby toys and presents for teenagers. Last year, she still delivered over 200 presents. Clare shared, “She’s incredibly thoughtful and always thinks of others.” Ivy’s selfless spirit continues to inspire others, proving that even with half a heart, she has the biggest heart of all. 24. Why does the author mention Mike Tyson in paragraph 2? A. To show Ivy’s love for boxing. B. To give an example of a famous person. C. To emphasize how excellent the surgery was. D. To describe Ivy’s condition after the operation. 25. What can we infer from the passage about Ivy’s illness? A. It is completely cured after her first surgery. B. It leads to her depression during her recovery. C. It requires more than one surgery and attentive care. D. It prevents her from participating in any physical activities. 26. What can we know about Ivy in her charity work? A. She tries to vary the types of gifts. B. She sticks to the gift delivery every year. C. She carries out it to prove her selflessness. D. She uses donations from others as presents. 27. Which of the following best describes Ivy’s character? A. Optimistic and humorous. B. Considerate and determined. C. Curious and adventurous. D. Confident and independent. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了患有左心发育不全综合征的女孩Ivy Scott 在经历多次手术后仍坚持参与公益慈善活动的故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段内容“Clare recalled, ‘Seeing her after surgery was heartbreaking. She was so swollen that she seemed to have boxed ten rounds with Mike Tyson.’(Clare回忆道：“手术后见到她令人心碎。她肿得好像和Mike Tyson打了十局。)”并结合常识可知，MikeTyson是一位很厉害的拳击运动员，和他打了十局，应该是肿得很厉害。由此推知，作者提到Mike Tyson是为了用比喻生动描述Ivy术后肿胀的外貌，强调经历手术后其身体状况的严重性。故选D项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。文中第二段内容“At just eight days old, Ivy underwent her first open-heart surgery.(8天大的时候，Ivy接受了她的第一次心脏直视手术。)”提到Ivy 在出生后8天接受第一次开胸手术；第三段内容“Ivy had another surgery the following days and spent her first birthday in hospital. Since then, she has recovered gradually. Under the care of her mother, she could do moderate exercise.( Ivy在接下来的几天里又做了一次手术，并在医院度过了她的第一个生日。从那以后，她逐渐康复了。在妈妈的照顾下，她可以做适度的运动。)”提到随后又经历了手术，在医院里度过了第一个生日，并在母亲和慈善机构的照料下逐渐恢复。由此可推断，她的病情需要多次手术和持续护理。故选C项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段内容“…handing out 90 gift bags containing biscuits and personal care items(分发90个装有饼干和个人护理用品的礼品袋)”，“…she delivered teddy bears to the intensive care unit(ICU)(她把泰迪熊送到了重症监护室)”，“In 2022, she returned to delivering presents, bringing books as gifts. And in 2023, she raised another £1,000 and took in gifts of baby toys and presents for teenagers.(2022年，她重新开始送礼物，带来书籍作为礼物。2023年，她又筹集了1000英镑，并收到了婴儿玩具和青少年礼物。)”的描述，Ivy自2018 年起每年赠送不同类型的礼物，如饼干、泰迪熊、书籍、婴儿玩具等，可见她在礼物种类上不断变化。故选A项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段内容“Though covered in wires and tubes, she made it through eventually.(尽管身上布满了电线和管子，她最终还是挺了过来。)”可知，她很小的时候就经历了难熬的手术，同时文章第四段内容“Ivy began her gifts deliveries in 2018 when she was two, handing out 90 gift bags containing biscuits and personal care items.(Ivy从2018年开始送礼物，当时她两岁，分发了90个装有饼干和个人护理用品的礼品袋。)”提及Ivy长期坚持慈善活动，其母亲评价她“thoughtful and always thinks of others(考虑周到，总是为他人着想)”。由此可推知她“体贴且坚定（Considerate and determined.）”。故选B项。 C★ If you ever feel that the world is against you, you are not alone. We all have a tendency to assume that when anything goes wrong, the fault lies within some great intrigue (诡计) against us. If a co-worker fails the deadline, they must be trying to ruin career. When WiFi in a coffee shop is not working, the staff must be lying about having it to attract you in. But the simple fact is that these explanations, which we tend to jump to, are barely true. Maybe your co-worker thought today was Tuesday, not Wednesday. Maybe the WiFi router was just broken. This is where Hanlon’s razor comes in — a useful mental model that never credits to intentional harm that can be fully explained by ignorance. Applying Hanlon’s razor, a useful tool for rapid decision-making and intelligent comprehension, in our day-to-day lives allows us to become less judgmental, and improve reasoning skills. Meanwhile, Hanlon’s razor allows us to give people the benefit of the doubt, have more empathy (同理心) and teaches us not to assume the worst intention in the actions of others, the value of which is most pronounced in relationships, business matters, and personal happiness. We all lead complex lives where things are constantly going wrong. When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention. However, when someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same. Instead, the perpetrator becomes a source of intense annoyance. To assume intention in such a situation is likely to worsen the problem. None of us can ever know what someone else wants to happen. Inability or ignorance is far more likely to be the cause than the desire to hurt. When a situation causes us to become angry or upset, it can be valuable to consider if those emotions are justified. Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to educate them, not to dismiss them. In this way, we can avoid repeats of the same situation. 28. How do people typically react to failures according to the text? A. Face true ill intention. B. Shift current situations. C. Misplace blame on others. D. Seek trustworthy persons. 29. What does Hanlon’s razor refer to? A. It identifies who is to blame. B. It is a device for router repair. C. It avoids assuming harm by ignorance. D. It is an approach for colleague’s fault. 30. What does the underlined word “perpetrator” in paragraph 4 mean? A. An error maker. B. An issue fixer. C. A blame sharer. D. A familiar person. 31. What will probably be discussed next in the text? A. How to control the bad emotions. B. How to instruct others effectively. C. How to change the nervous relationship. D. How to avoid reappearance of the same situation. 【答案】28. C 29. C 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕人们面对失败时的常见反应展开，介绍了“Hanlon’s razor”这一思维模型，阐述了该模型在日常生活决策、提升推理能力、改善人际关系等方面的作用，并指出在面对他人导致的问题时，应避免恶意揣测，尝试教育他人而非一味指责，以避免同样情况再次发生。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If you ever feel that the world is against you, you are not alone. We all have a tendency to assume that when anything goes wrong, the fault lies within some great intrigue (诡计) against us.(如果你觉得这个世界在与你作对，你并不孤单。我们都有一种倾向，认为当事情出错时，错误在于某个针对我们的阴谋。)”可知，人们通常对失败的反应是错误地指责别人。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But the simple fact is that these explanations, which we tend to jump to, are barely true. Maybe your co-worker thought today was Tuesday, not Wednesday. Maybe the WiFi router was just broken. This is where Hanlon’s razor comes in — a useful mental model that never credits to intentional harm that can be fully explained by ignorance.(但简单的事实是，我们倾向于得出的这些解释几乎是不真实的。也许你的同事认为今天是星期二，而不是星期三。也许Wi-Fi路由器坏了。这就是汉隆剃刀的原理——一个有用的思维模型，它从不归因于故意伤害，而这种伤害可以通过无知来完全解释。)”可知，汉隆剃刀指的是避免因无知而假设伤害。故选C。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention. However, when someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same.( 当这种情况发生时，一种常见的反应是责怪离自己最近的人，并认为他们怀有恶意。然而，当身边有人搞砸事情时，我们却忘记了自己也有过多少次同样的行为。)”可知，当有人把事情搞砸了，我们忘记了自己有多少次也犯了同样的错误，只是一味地认为犯错者是根源。由此可知，perpetrator意为“错误制造者”。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to educate them, not to dismiss them. In this way, we can avoid repeats of the same situation.(通常，对别人给我们造成问题做出反应的最好方法是寻求教育他们，而不是解雇他们。通过这种方式，我们可以避免同样的情况再次发生。)”可推知，文章接下来可能会讨论如何有效地指导他人。故选B。 D The last time my husband and I went out for an elegant restaurant dinner, the server came to our table and began to recite a long list of specials, with detailed descriptions of how the dishes were made and where the ingredients had been sourced. Her recitation went on and on, and as she spoke, I became almost more interested in how she could remember all those descriptions than I was in thinking about the food. Meanwhile, I couldn’t remember where I’d put my keys before we left for the restaurant. The good news is that not remembering where you put your keys is generally not a sign of dementia (老年痴呆). And on the contrary, being able to remember a long list of restaurant specials isn’t necessarily a sign of extraordinary mental ability, either. Memory is far more complicated than the dining out experience could ever show. While most of us are terrified about developing dementia, fewer than 10% of adults aged 65 and older will wind up with dementia such as Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默症). “Some memory loss is normal as people age.” says Joel Salinas, a behavioral neurologist. “It’s not the kind of decline that interferes with the ability to live your life.” And, he adds, “There are areas that actually improve with age. Vocabulary is one.” Jessica Zwerling, a director of the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer’s Disease, compares the effect of aging on memory to kind of like getting traffic on the brain. “It may take longer to find a word; it may come to you later. The speed of processing can go down, but your hippocampus, the part of the brain most associated with memory, should be functioning.” And the memories themselves are stored in various sections of the cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the brain. “Memory is all these different brain networks working in concert with each other,” says Dr. Salinas. 32. Why does the author mention the dining out experience in the first paragraph? A. To clarify the distinct differences. B. To introduce her awkward situation. C. To teach readers how to recite menus. D. To highlight the complexity of memory. 33. What does the underlined phrase “interferes with” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Promote. B. Limit. C. Mix. D. Acquire. 34. What can we know about aged people with memory loss according to the text? A. They act like an Alzheimer’s patient. B. They can’t live a normal life independently. C. They are sure to suffer dementia some day. D. They may recall some forgotten words after a while. 35. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A The mechanism of memory loss in brain. B. The brain parts in charge of memorizing. C. The procedures of memory experiments. D. The result of losing memory in brain. 【答案】32. D 33. B 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过作者外出就餐的经历引出话题，探讨了记忆的复杂性，并解释了随着年龄增长出现的正常记忆衰退现象及其与痴呆症的区别。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“The last time my husband and I went out for an elegant restaurant dinner, the server came to our table and began to recite a long list of specials, with detailed descriptions of how the dishes were made and where the ingredients had been sourced. Her recitation went on and on, and as she spoke, I became almost more interested in how she could remember all those descriptions than I was in thinking about the food. Meanwhile, I couldn’t remember where I’d put my keys before we left for the restaurant.(上次我和丈夫去一家高雅的餐厅吃饭时，服务员走到我们桌边，开始背诵一长串特色菜，详细介绍了菜肴的制作方法和食材的来源。她不停地背诵，在她说话的时候，我对她是如何记住这些描述更感兴趣，而不是想着食物。与此同时，我记不起去餐厅之前把钥匙放在哪里了)”和第二段中“The good news is that not remembering where you put your keys is generally not a sign of dementia. And on the contrary, being able to remember a long list of restaurant specials isn’t necessarily a sign of extraordinary mental ability, either. Memory is far more complicated than the dining out experience could ever show.(好消息是，不记得把钥匙放在哪里通常并不是痴呆的征兆。相反，能够记住一长串餐厅特色菜也不一定是非凡智力的标志。记忆远比外出就餐的经历要复杂得多)”可知，作者提到外出就餐的经历是为了说明能够记住一长串餐厅特色菜不一定是非凡智力的标志，而不记得把钥匙放在哪也并不是痴呆的征兆，由此说明记忆具有复杂性。故选D项。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“‘Some memory loss is normal as people age.’ says Joel Salinas, a behavioral neurologist. ‘It’s not the kind of decline that interferes with the ability to live your life.’ (行为神经学家乔尔·萨利纳斯说：“随着人们年龄的增长，一些记忆丧失是正常的。这不是那种会interferes with你生活能力的衰退。”)”可知，随着年龄的增长，记忆丧失是正常现象，结合句中“not the kind of decline”可推知，这种记忆的衰退不会限制人们的生活能力。故划线短语与“Limit”意思相近，意为“限制”。故选B项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Jessica Zwerling, a director of the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer’s Disease, compares the effect of aging on memory to kind of like getting traffic on the brain. ‘It may take longer to find a word; it may come to you later. The speed of processing can go down, but your hippocampus, the part of the brain most associated with memory, should be functioning.’ (阿尔茨海默病卓越研究中心主任杰西卡·茨维林将衰老对记忆的影响比作大脑的交通堵塞。‘可能需要更长时间才能想出一个词；它可能会晚些时候出现在你脑海中。处理速度可能会下降，但你大脑中与记忆最相关的海马体应该在正常运作’)”可知，有记忆减退的老年人可能过一会儿能想起一些遗忘的单词。故选D项。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段中“Jessica Zwerling, a director of the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer’s Disease, compares the effect of aging on memory to kind of like getting traffic on the brain. ‘It may take longer to find a word; it may come to you later. The speed of processing can go down, but your hippocampus, the part of the brain most associated with memory, should be functioning.’ (阿尔茨海默病卓越研究中心主任杰西卡·茨维林将衰老对记忆的影响比作大脑的交通堵塞。‘可能需要更长时间才能想出一个词；它可能会晚些时候出现在你脑海中。处理速度可能会下降，但你大脑中与记忆最相关的海马体应该在正常运作’)”和“Memory is all these different brain networks working in concert with each other (记忆是所有这些不同的大脑网络相互协作的结果)”对大脑中记忆存储和运作的描述可知，本段主要讲的是大脑中记忆减退的机制。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。 Effective communication is the process of expressing your thoughts, opinions, and ideas while listening to the input of others.

Rain tapped softly against the windows, casting a silvery gloom over the cramped space. Ten-year-old Lily lay sprawled on the carpet, her crayons screeching across paper as she drew jagged kites and lopsided tombstones. Beside her, six-year-old Max shredded sheets of printer paper into confetti, tossing the fragments into the air like ceremonial ghost money. Their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, sat at opposite ends of the sagging sofa, their faces illuminated by the cold glow of their phones. A forgotten speaker played a generic “spring renewal” soundtrack — birdsong and trickling water — that only deepened the sense of artificiality. Qingming Festival had always been a day of crisp rituals for the Jordans. In years past, they would wake early, pack chrysanthemums and oranges into woven baskets, and drive to the hillside cemetery where Mrs. Jordan’s grandparents rested. The children would chase each other among the headstones, their laughter mingling with the scent of burning incense. After tidying the graves, they’d picnic under cherry blossom trees, their fingers sticky with Qingtuan, the emerald-green rice dumplings filled with sweet bean paste. But this year, the forecast had warned of thunderstorms, and Mrs. Jordan, citing “practicality,” canceled the trip. “We’ll light virtual candles on the family app,” she’d said, though no one had bothered to log in. Now, the absence of tradition hung heavier than the rain clouds. Lily glanced at her mother, who was engrossed in a live stream of a Kyoto cherry blossom festival. “Mom,” she ventured, holding up her drawing — a stick-figure family standing beside a tombstone she’d colored neon pink. “Does Great-Grandma like pink?” “Hmm? Sure, sweetie,” Mrs. Jordan replied, her thumb flicking upward in a reflexive like. Mr. Jordan, meanwhile, scrolled through an article titled “The Digitization of Grief: How Modern Families Honor Ancestors.” He paused at a photo of a high-tech columbarium in Singapore, where QR codes replaced headstones. A notification buzzed — a reminder from his fitness app:“1,000 steps to daily goal!” He stood abruptly. “Maybe we should... take a walk?” Max lobbed a paper ball at the ceiling. “Boring.” The room lapsed back into silence, broken only by the crinkle of paper and the tinny laughter from Mrs. Jordan’s video. Outside, the rain thickened, blurring the world into a watercolor wash. Lily’s crayon snapped. “This is the worst Qingming ever,” she announced, hurling the broken stub across the room. It struck the family photo on the mantel — a snapshot from last year’s grave visit, their smiles bright against the misty hills. The clatter jolted Mrs. Jordan. She stared at the photo, then at her children — Lily scowling, Max now dismantling a sofa cushion. Guilt prickled her throat. Closing her phone, she knelt beside Lily. 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。 Paragraph 1: “What if...we make Qingtuan? Like Great-Grandma taught me?” _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As dusk settled, the imperfect steamed Qingtuan emerged. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph 1: “What if...we make Qingtuan? Like Great-Grandma taught me?” Mrs. Jordan’s voice trembled slightly, her eyes softening as memories of her grandmother’s kitchen surfaced. The family scrambled to their feet, gathering flour, mugwort, and sweet bean paste from the pantry. Mrs. Jordan guided their clumsy hands, laughing as Lily’s dough ended up neon green and Max’s dumplings resembled misshapen rocks. The living room transformed into a chaotic workshop, flour dusting the air like snow, and the generic spring soundtrack gave way to their chatter and the rhythmic thud of rolling pins. Paragraph 2: As dusk settled, the imperfect steamed Qingtuan emerged. The aroma of mugwort and warmth filled the room, chasing away the earlier gloom. The family gathered around the coffee table, each taking a bite — Lily wrinkling her nose at the bitter edge of the mugwort, Max declaring his the “best ever,” and Mr. and Mrs. Jordan sharing a quiet, knowing smile. Mrs. Jordan placed a Qingtuan on a plate beside the family photo, whispering, “For you, Grandma.” The Jordans realized tradition didn’t need grand gestures — just shared hands and heartfelt intentions. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了乔丹一家今年因为天气预报有雷暴，母亲以“实用性”为由取消了扫墓行程，决定在家通过家庭应用程序点虚拟蜡烛来纪念祖先。然而，这一改变让家庭氛围变得沉闷和缺乏传统意义。父母各自沉浸在手机中，孩子们则无聊地打发时间。莉莉试图与母亲交流关于曾祖母的喜好，但母亲只是敷衍回应。最终，莉莉对今年的清明节感到极度失望。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘如果……我们做青团？就像曾祖母教我的那样？’”可知，第一段可描写全家做青团的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“夜幕降临时，这些并不完美的蒸青团出锅了。”可知，第二段可描写全家品尝青团的过程、对青团的评价和传统活动重建亲情的感悟。 2.续写线索：准备材料——Mrs. Jordan指导孩子们——客厅变成工作坊——做好青团——香气弥漫房间——吃青团——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①指导：guide/instruct ②吃一口：take a bite/have a bite ③低声说：whisper/speak in a low voice 情绪类 ①笑：laugh/grin ②诚挚的：heartfelt/sincere 【点睛】[高分句型1] Mrs. Jordan guided their clumsy hands, laughing as Lily’s dough ended up neon green and Max’s dumplings resembled misshapen rocks.

We have for a long time none of the dangers of global warming, but sadly, little action has been taken to respond to IT. However, we have listened to our children campaigning all across the world, and we have chosen to listen to them and make hard choices. We have set a date of twenty twenty five for petrol based cars to stop production. In addition, our governments will bring in a vehicle exchange system. IT will allow drivers to trade in their car for an electric model at no additional cost. We see this as an urgent action that needs to be taken. We cannot put profits ahead of the health of our planet for too long. The industries that pollute the most have dragged their heals well. No more. In addition, we will also be banning all plastic bottles by twenty thirty. Unless producers can find a way to make plastic breakdown, we would suggest a return to glass bottles. They can easily be reused and recycled with no harm to the environment. Plastic has invaded our food supply, and we need to remove IT urgently before IT destroys our planet's ecosystem.

Entomophagy This is a proper term for eating insects! Numerous people realize that many of our basic food may disappear in the coming decades and insects can offer people good protein (蛋白质) to replace animal meats, so they believe insects are a good choice. It hasn’t quite happened yet because we all think insects are extremely unpleasant. But, many chefs are already experimenting in the field. A number of top chefs in London are using their cooking creativity to turn something unpleasant into something delicious. Tech at the Table Digital products will probably become a common part of our food and drink experiences in the near future. We’re going to see things like tablets and computer screens that can tell stories around the food we are eating. We’ll be able to change the color of plates digitally, because we know that colors can change the taste of food or make it look better. The Experimental Meal The experimental meal is liked by a growing number of people interested in finding new connections between their senses. They think that food is not just what goes into the mouth, but a whole experience. They’re seeing dining — music, lighting, staff uniforms, temperature changes — as a whole meal. They are trying to put different things together instead of having dinner and then going to the theatre, why not bring the two together? The same goes for cinema and music. 21. What is the reason for some people to turn to insects for food? A. The better taste of protein from insects. B. The popularity of some chefs in London. C. The possibility of main food disappearing. D. The performance of some chefs’ experiments. 22. Why is the color of plates changed digitally? A. To make the food healthy. B. To make the food attractive. C. To make the plate funny. D. To make the plate eco-friendly. 23. Why do some people prefer the experimental meal? A. To connect senses in a new way. B. To bring colorful plates together. C. To combine food with digital products. D. To carry out technology experiments. B★ Ivy Scott was born with hypoplastic left heart syndrome (左心发育不全综合征), meaning only half of her heart functions properly. Despite spending her first birthday in hospital undergoing surgery, Ivy has dedicated to fundraising and delivering presents to children at Alder Hey Hospital in Liverpool since she was two. Ivy’s condition was detected when her mother, Clare Bouch, did a 20-week pregnancy scan. Further tests revealed the rare condition, which affects only 1 in 4,000 babies. At just eight days old, Ivy underwent her first open-heart surgery. Clare recalled, “Seeing her after surgery was heartbreaking. She was so swollen that she seemed to have boxed ten rounds with Mike Tyson. Though covered in wires and tubes, she made it through eventually.” Ivy had another surgery the following days and spent her first birthday in hospital. Since then, she has recovered gradually. Under the care of her mother, she could do moderate exercise. Supported by the charity Tiny Tickers, Clare said, “She’s done so well and always has a smile for everyone.” Ivy began her gifts deliveries in 2018 when she was two, handing out 90 gift bags containing biscuits and personal care items. In 2019, despite a broken leg, she delivered teddy bears to the intensive care unit (ICU). In 2020 and 2021, Ivy raised £1,000 each year through online fundraising. In 2022, she returned to delivering presents, bringing books as gifts. And in 2023, she raised another £1,000 and took in gifts of baby toys and presents for teenagers. Last year, she still delivered over 200 presents. Clare shared, “She’s incredibly thoughtful and always thinks of others.” Ivy’s selfless spirit continues to inspire others, proving that even with half a heart, she has the biggest heart of all. 24. Why does the author mention Mike Tyson in paragraph 2? A. To show Ivy’s love for boxing. B. To give an example of a famous person. C. To emphasize how excellent the surgery was. D. To describe Ivy’s condition after the operation. 25. What can we infer from the passage about Ivy’s illness? A. It is completely cured after her first surgery. B. It leads to her depression during her recovery. C. It requires more than one surgery and attentive care. D. It prevents her from participating in any physical activities. 26. What can we know about Ivy in her charity work? A. She tries to vary the types of gifts. B. She sticks to the gift delivery every year. C. She carries out it to prove her selflessness. D. She uses donations from others as presents. 27. Which of the following best describes Ivy’s character? A. Optimistic and humorous. B. Considerate and determined. C. Curious and adventurous. D. Confident and independent. C★ If you ever feel that the world is against you, you are not alone. We all have a tendency to assume that when anything goes wrong, the fault lies within some great intrigue (诡计) against us. If a co-worker fails the deadline, they must be trying to ruin career. When WiFi in a coffee shop is not working, the staff must be lying about having it to attract you in. But the simple fact is that these explanations, which we tend to jump to, are barely true. Maybe your co-worker thought today was Tuesday, not Wednesday. Maybe the WiFi router was just broken. This is where Hanlon’s razor comes in — a useful mental model that never credits to intentional harm that can be fully explained by ignorance. Applying Hanlon’s razor, a useful tool for rapid decision-making and intelligent comprehension, in our day-to-day lives allows us to become less judgmental, and improve reasoning skills. Meanwhile, Hanlon’s razor allows us to give people the benefit of the doubt, have more empathy (同理心) and teaches us not to assume the worst intention in the actions of others, the value of which is most pronounced in relationships, business matters, and personal happiness. We all lead complex lives where things are constantly going wrong. When this occurs, a common response is to blame the nearest person and assume they have bad intention. However, when someone messes up around us, we forget how many times we, too, have done the same. Instead, the perpetrator becomes a source of intense annoyance. To assume intention in such a situation is likely to worsen the problem. None of us can ever know what someone else wants to happen. Inability or ignorance is far more likely to be the cause than the desire to hurt. When a situation causes us to become angry or upset, it can be valuable to consider if those emotions are justified. Often, the best way to react to other people causing us problems is by seeking to educate them, not to dismiss them. In this way, we can avoid repeats of the same situation. 28. How do people typically react to failures according to the text? A. Face true ill intention. B. Shift current situations. C. Misplace blame on others. D. Seek trustworthy persons. 29. What does Hanlon’s razor refer to? A. It identifies who is to blame. B. It is a device for router repair. C. It avoids assuming harm by ignorance. D. It is an approach for colleague’s fault. 30. What does the underlined word “perpetrator” in paragraph 4 mean? A. An error maker. B. An issue fixer. C. A blame sharer. D. A familiar person. 31. What will probably be discussed next in the text? A. How to control the bad emotions. B. How to instruct others effectively. C. How to change the nervous relationship. D. How to avoid reappearance of the same situation. D The last time my husband and I went out for an elegant restaurant dinner the server came to our table and began to recite a long list of specials, with detailed descriptions of how the dishes were made and where the ingredients had been sourced. Her recitation went on and on, and as she spoke, I became almost more interested in how she could remember all those descriptions than I was in thinking about the food. Meanwhile, I couldn’t remember where I’d put my keys before we left for the restaurant. The good news is that not remembering where you put your keys is generally not a sign of dementia (老年痴呆). And on the contrary, being able to remember a long list of restaurant specials isn’t necessarily a sign of extraordinary mental ability, either. Memory is far more complicated than the dining out experience could ever show. While most of us are terrified about developing dementia, fewer than 10% of adults aged 65 and older will wind up with dementia such as Alzheimer’s (阿尔茨海默症). “Some memory loss is normal as people age.” says Joel Salinas, a behavioral neurologist. “It’s not the kind of decline that interferes with the ability to live your life.” And, he adds, “There are areas that actually improve with age. Vocabulary is one.” Jessica Zwerling, a director of the Center of Excellence for Alzheimer’s Disease, compares the effect of aging on memory to kind of like getting traffic on the brain. “It may take longer to find a word; it may come to you later. The speed of processing can go down, but your hippocampus, the part of the brain most associated with memory, should be functioning.” And the memories themselves are stored in various sections of the cerebral cortex, the outer layer of the brain. “Memory is all these different brain networks working in concert with each other,” says Dr. Salinas. 32. Why does the author mention the dining out experience in the first paragraph? A To clarify the distinct differences. B. To introduce her awkward situation. C. To teach readers how to recite menus. D. To highlight the complexity of memory. 33. What does the underlined phrase “interferes with” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. Promote. B. Limit. C. Mix. D. Acquire. 34. What can we know about aged people with memory loss according to the text? A. They act like an Alzheimer’s patient. B. They can’t live a normal life independently. C. They are sure to suffer dementia some day. D. They may recall some forgotten words after a while. 35. What is the last paragraph mainly about? A. The mechanism of memory loss in brain. B. The brain parts in charge of memorizing. C. The procedures of memory experiments. D. The result of losing memory in brain. 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。 Effective communication is the process of expressing your thoughts, opinions, and ideas while listening to the input of others. Then how to communicate effectively? ·Organize your thoughts before speaking. Before you attempt to communicate ideas, organize your thoughts using key points. ___36___ That way, if you go off topic, you can easily come back to your main points without getting upset. ·Keep your audience in mind.

Rain tapped softly against the windows casting a silvery gloom over the cramped space. Ten-year-old Lily lay sprawled on the carpet, her crayons screeching across paper as she drew jagged kites and lopsided tombstones. Beside her, six-year-old Max shredded sheets of printer paper into confetti, tossing the fragments into the air like ceremonial ghost money. Their parents, Mr. and Mrs. Jordan, sat at opposite ends of the sagging sofa, their faces illuminated by the cold glow of their phones. A forgotten speaker played a generic “spring renewal” soundtrack — birdsong and trickling water — that only deepened the sense of artificiality. Qingming Festival had always been a day of crisp rituals for the Jordans. In years past, they would wake early, pack chrysanthemums and oranges into woven baskets, and drive to the hillside cemetery where Mrs. Jordan’s grandparents rested. The children would chase each other among the headstones, their laughter mingling with the scent of burning incense. After tidying the graves, they’d picnic under cherry blossom trees, their fingers sticky with Qingtuan, the emerald-green rice dumplings filled with sweet bean paste. But this year, the forecast had warned of thunderstorms, and Mrs. Jordan, citing “practicality,” canceled the trip. “We’ll light virtual candles on the family app,” she’d said, though no one had bothered to log in. Now, the absence of tradition hung heavier than the rain clouds. Lily glanced at her mother, who was engrossed in a live stream of a Kyoto cherry blossom festival. “Mom,” she ventured, holding up her drawing — a stick-figure family standing beside a tombstone she’d colored neon pink. “Does Great-Grandma like pink?” “Hmm? Sure, sweetie,” Mrs. Jordan replied, her thumb flicking upward in a reflexive like. Mr. Jordan, meanwhile, scrolled through an article titled “The Digitization of Grief: How Modern Families Honor Ancestors.” He paused at a photo of a high-tech columbarium in Singapore, where QR codes replaced headstones.
