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)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Humans sweat to keep cool. But did you know that besides them, only a small percentage of the world’s animals keep cool by sweating? In fact, animals have a variety of ways to beat the cruel heat, some of which you might say are even a little bit strange.
Giraffes
We know that giraffes live in a particularly dry, hot environment, but they don’t sweat. How do they stay cool? The answer lies in their beautiful skin pattern, which is like a large network with a very complex vascular (血管) system under each patch (斑块). A giraffe’s special blood flow can force heat out of its body. Because of their rather large skin surface, this is a more-than-effective way to escape the heat.
Elephants
As the largest land animal on earth, elephants rely on their huge pair of ears. Simply by tapping their ears, elephants can lower their body temperature by 12℃ or more. Moreover, elephants often open their ears when facing the wind to reach this cooling effect.
Dogs
The dog’s way of escaping the heat is probably the most common in our daily lives--sticking their tongues out. By breathing heavily dogs quickly force the heat from their body and breathe cooler air in, which enters their lungs and cools their entire body.
Koalas
Koalas are well-known for their “laziness”, so it’s natural to see one lying on a branch and think it’s just being its lazy self, but that’s not the case. Researchers say that the koalas select their trees very carefully, looking in hot weather for tree bark that is cooler than the air temperature. By getting into the cool surface of the bark, koalas can stay relatively comfortable during Australia’s powerful heat waves.
1. How do dogs beat the heat?
A. By choosing the suitable tree skin. B. By putting their tongues out.
C. By moving their ears. D. By flowing blood.
2. Which of the following animals uses their habitats to cool?
A. Giraffe. B. Elephants. C. Dogs. D. Koalas.
3. What do four animals have in common?
A. They live lazily. B. They don’t sweat.
C. They don’t stay cool. D. They live comfortably.
B
In the digital age, opportunities are arising for everyone. However, only those putting plans into action can stay ahead. Alexandr Wang is one such example.
Los Alamos National Laboratory was where Alexandr spent his childhood. Both his parents were physicists there. Alexandr, from a young age, had a sharp mind. As a kid, he was regarded as a math wizard (奇才) and competed in national math and computer competitions. Finishing high school, Alexandr entered MIT where machine learning and AI amazed him. He saw the potential (潜力) of AI, and was excited about how it could change the world. But it wasn’t making a real impact. His ambition to set up a company in that field was seeded then.
At 17, he got the role of tech lead at Quora where he met Lucy Guo , with whom Alexandr founded Scale AI, which turned out to be a considerable success. In fact, at that time, there were various opportunities in the tech world. It was hard to decide which road they should go down. Then he and his team decided to take a different approach — instead of following diverse paths, they agreed to focus on one. They went with “imagery, computer vision and other kinds of sensor data”. And that is what made the company’s profits rise quickly. Scale AI has a net worth of about $7.3 billion at present, with Alexandr being the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
When asked lessons he’d like to share with founders, Alexandr stated there are a number of things. “The top one is always doing things that go with your values and how you want to build a company at the beginning. When you talk to investors (投资者), they’ll contribute advice that may go against your goal. Figure out your focus and what gets you started.”
4. What inspired Alexandr to build Scale AI?
A. The work at Quora. B. His experiences at university.
C. The influence of his parents. D. His talent for math and computer.
5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. The key to the success of Scale AI. B. Challenges of Alexandr’s career.
C. Alexandr’s great achievements. D. The process of founding Scale AI.
6. Which of the following can best describe Alexandr?
A. Clever and generous. B. Courageous and outgoing.
C. Ambitious and sociable. D. Adventurous and determined.
7. What did Alexandr advise founders to do?
A. Stick to one particular direction. B. Keep an open mind on suggestions.
C. Remain true to the original intention. D. Find a friend to start a company.
C
Shen Wei, the character designer behind China’s highest-earning animated (动画的)film Ne Zha, recently spoke about his challenging journey in designing characters for Ne Zha 2, following the great success of the original film in 2019.
Ne Zha 2 joined the very lively Spring Festival film season list and was first shown on Jan. 29. Building on the remarkable success of its predecessor, this five-year project continues to draw inspiration from the playful but adorable character from the Ming dynasty novel The Investiture of the Gods. It also introduces a “dimensional upgrade” that includes new characters, thrilling battle scenes, more than 1,900 visual effect shots, and enhanced details for IMAX.
When discussing the challenges of character design amid high audience expectations after a five-year wait, Shen emphasized the importance of two concepts: continuity and innovation. “I believe finding both keeping the old and adding new things are significant,” Shen said. “The audience has already accepted elements of the original, so it’s impossible to completely change the established framework. Our approach is to keep the main ideas of the first film into the sequel (续集) while innovating and improving on existing techniques.”
Ne Zha 2 includes a substantial increase in new characters, tripling the number from the first film. A promotional video reveals that nearly every character has received unique battle designs instead of reusing previous designs. Shen noted that this approach demanded considerable effort and time. His goal was to immerse the audience in a story that feels authentic and engaging, ensuring that each character is fully developed and relatable.
One new character that impressed Shen is Ao Shun, a legendary dragon king. His complex armor, made entirely of blades, along with his unique fighting style, presented significant development challenges. Shen worked closely with Yang Yu, the director of the Ne Zha film series, known by his nickname Jiaozi, to explore various versions of the character’s costume and performance style.
Looking ahead, Shen expressed a strong interest in exploring projects that involve alien and future-like creatures during the revival of Chinese animation. “Such themes,” he said, “allow me to explore new ideas and awaken my imagination.” He noted that character design is a creatively rich and rewarding process.
8. What does the term “dimensional upgrade” in paragraph 2 most likely refer to?
A. A shift from 2D to 3D animation.
B. Expansions in story, visual effects, and technology.
C. Reducing the film’s runtime for better pacing.
D. Focusing only on character backstories.
9. Why does Shen believe it is impossible to completely change the established framework?
A. Because the audience has developed an emotional connection to the original elements.
B. Because the original film’s framework is too inflexible to allow for changes.
C. Because the filmmakers lack the creativity to introduce new ideas.
D. Because the sequel must strictly stick to the original storyline.
10. How does Shen’s approach to character design contribute to the overall experience of Ne Zha 2?
A. By making the film more technically advanced.
B. By balancing tradition with creative improvements.
C. By completely changing the original character designs.
D. By stressing the importance of audience preferences.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To show the box office success of Ne Zha 2.
B. To advertise the global screening of Ne Zha 2.
C. To analyze Shen Wei’s design ideas and challenges in Ne Zha 2.
D. To compare the visual effects of Ne Zha and Ne Zha 2.
D
“Red tourism”, a new form of tourism in which people visit locations and memorials(纪念碑)of historical significance to the Communist Party of China, has given a much-needed shot in the arm of the domestic(国内的)tourism industry in summer. And red tourism will be more popular during the National Day Golden Week holiday.
Ticket bookings for red tourism sites in June increased by five times with local and short trips to red tourism sites being the choice of about 88 percent of such tourists. And the search for the term “red tourism” on Mafengwo, a Chinese travel service and social-networking platform, increased by 300 percent during the summer holidays.
Red tourism is not only about the joy of visiting a new place and taking in the wonderful sights. It is also about gaining knowledge about history and being inspired by the stories of the people who gave their lives to the founding of the People’s Republic in 1949 and worked for the wellbeing of the Chinese people. By rediscovering history and passing on the stories of the Chinese revolution and its heroes to the next generations, people can uplift their spirit.
Red tourism can also be used as an opportunity to develop rural(农村的)areas because most of the revolutionary bases and red tourism sites are in the countryside. It can raise the incomes of local people, Since red tourism creates jobs and helps increase farmers’ incomes, it can develop local development.
Data show that in the first half of 2022 more than 30 percent of all tourists visited red tourism sites in rural areas, which was 10 percent more than the last year. Yet red tourism faces certain developmental problems, mainly because some local government officials have failed to make the best use of red tourism resources for local development.
12. What can we know about red tourism?
A. It has brought life to tourism. B. It is not popular with the young.
C. It is a traditional form of tourism. D. It is about visiting beautiful scenery.
13. Why does the author list the numbers in paragraph 2?
A. To describe a scene. B. To prove his idea.
C. To illustrate the story. D. To introduce a platform.
14. What is the benefit of red tourism for rural areas?
A. It can help improve farming facilities.
B. Local people can make more money.
C. It can offer job opportunities to visitors.
D. Local people can receive much help from society.
15. What will be mentioned in the following paragraphs?
A. More and more people will choose red tourism.
B. Many travel companies will benefit from red tourism.
C. Some measures should be taken to solve problems.
D More red tourism sites should be open to the public.

In the digital age, opportunities are arising for everyone. However, only those putting plans into action can stay ahead. Alexandr Wang is one such example.
Los Alamos National Laboratory was where Alexandr spent his childhood. Both his parents were physicists there. Alexandr, from a young age, had a sharp mind. As a kid, he was regarded as a math wizard (奇才) and competed in national math and computer competitions. Finishing high school, Alexandr entered MIT where machine learning and AI amazed him. He saw the potential (潜力) of AI, and was excited about how it could change the world. But it wasn’t making a real impact. His ambition to set up a company in that field was seeded then.
At 17 he got the role of tech lead at Quora where he met Lucy Guo , with whom Alexandr founded Scale AI, which turned out to be a considerable success. In fact, at that time, there were various opportunities in the tech world. It was hard to decide which road they should go down. Then he and his team decided to take a different approach — instead of following diverse paths, they agreed to focus on one. They went with “imagery, computer vision and other kinds of sensor data”. And that is what made the company’s profits rise quickly. Scale AI has a net worth of about $7.3 billion at present, with Alexandr being the world’s youngest self-made billionaire.
When asked lessons he’d like to share with founders, Alexandr stated there are a number of things. “The top one is always doing things that go with your values and how you want to build a company at the beginning. When you talk to investors (投资者), they’ll contribute advice that may go against your goal. Figure out your focus and what gets you started.”
4. What inspired Alexandr to build Scale AI?
A. The work at Quora. B. His experiences at university.
C. The influence of his parents. D. His talent for math and computer.
5. What is mainly talked about in paragraph 3?
A. The key to the success of Scale AI. B. Challenges of Alexandr’s career.
C. Alexandr’s great achievements. D. The process of founding Scale AI.
6. Which of the following can best describe Alexandr?
A. Clever and generous. B. Courageous and outgoing.
C. Ambitious and sociable. D. Adventurous and determined.
7. What did Alexandr advise founders to do?
A. Stick to one particular direction. B. Keep an open mind on suggestions.
C. Remain true to the original intention. D. Find a friend to start a company.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C
【解析】

Shen Wei, the character designer behind China’s highest-earning animated (动画的)film Ne Zha, recently spoke about his challenging journey in designing characters for Ne Zha 2, following the great success of the original film in 2019.
Ne Zha 2 joined the very lively Spring Festival film season list and was first shown on Jan. 29. Building on the remarkable success of its predecessor, this five-year project continues to draw inspiration from the playful but adorable character from the Ming dynasty novel The Investiture of the Gods. It also introduces a “dimensional upgrade” that includes new characters, thrilling battle scenes, more than 1,900 visual effect shots, and enhanced details for IMAX.
When discussing the challenges of character design amid high audience expectations after a five-year wait, Shen emphasized the importance of two concepts: continuity and innovation. “I believe finding both keeping the old and adding new things are significant,” Shen said. “The audience has already accepted elements of the original, so it’s impossible to completely change the established framework. Our approach is to keep the main ideas of the first film into the sequel (续集) while innovating and improving on existing techniques.”
Ne Zha 2 includes a substantial increase in new characters, tripling the number from the first film. A promotional video reveals that nearly every character has received unique battle designs instead of reusing previous designs. Shen noted that this approach demanded considerable effort and time. His goal was to immerse the audience in a story that feels authentic and engaging, ensuring that each character is fully developed and relatable.
One new character that impressed Shen is Ao Shun, a legendary dragon king. His complex armor, made entirely of blades, along with his unique fighting style, presented significant development challenges. Shen worked closely with Yang Yu, the director of the Ne Zha film series, known by his nickname Jiaozi, to explore various versions of the character’s costume and performance style.
Looking ahead, Shen expressed a strong interest in exploring projects that involve alien and future-like creatures during the revival of Chinese animation. “Such themes,” he said, “allow me to explore new ideas and awaken my imagination.” He noted that character design is a creatively rich and rewarding process.
8. What does the term “dimensional upgrade” in paragraph 2 most likely refer to?
A. A shift from 2D to 3D animation.
B. Expansions in story, visual effects, and technology.
C. Reducing the film’s runtime for better pacing.
D. Focusing only on character backstories.
9. Why does Shen believe it is impossible to completely change the established framework?
A. Because the audience has developed an emotional connection to the original elements.
B. Because the original film’s framework is too inflexible to allow for changes.
C. Because the filmmakers lack the creativity to introduce new ideas.
D. Because the sequel must strictly stick to the original storyline.
10. How does Shen’s approach to character design contribute to the overall experience of Ne Zha 2?
A. By making the film more technically advanced.
B. By balancing tradition with creative improvements.
C. By completely changing the original character designs.
D. By stressing the importance of audience preferences.
11. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To show the box office success of Ne Zha 2.
B. To advertise the global screening of Ne Zha 2.
C. To analyze Shen Wei’s design ideas and challenges in Ne Zha 2.
D. To compare the visual effects of Ne Zha and Ne Zha 2.

“Red tourism”, a new form of tourism in which people visit locations and memorials(纪念碑)of historical significance to the Communist Party of China, has given a much-needed shot in the arm of the domestic(国内的)tourism industry in summer. And red tourism will be more popular during the National Day Golden Week holiday.
Ticket bookings for red tourism sites in June increased by five times with local and short trips to red tourism sites being the choice of about 88 percent of such tourists. And the search for the term “red tourism” on Mafengwo, a Chinese travel service and social-networking platform, increased by 300 percent during the summer holidays.
Red tourism is not only about the joy of visiting a new place and taking in the wonderful sights. It is also about gaining knowledge about history and being inspired by the stories of the people who gave their lives to the founding of the People’s Republic in 1949 and worked for the wellbeing of the Chinese people. By rediscovering history and passing on the stories of the Chinese revolution and its heroes to the next generations, people can uplift their spirit.
Red tourism can also be used as an opportunity to develop rural(农村的)areas because most of the revolutionary bases and red tourism sites are in the countryside. It can raise the incomes of local people, Since red tourism creates jobs and helps increase farmers’ incomes, it can develop local development.
Data show that in the first half of 2022, more than 30 percent of all tourists visited red tourism sites in rural areas, which was 10 percent more than the last year. Yet red tourism faces certain developmental problems, mainly because some local government officials have failed to make the best use of red tourism resources for local development.
12. What can we know about red tourism?
A. It has brought life to tourism. B. It is not popular with the young.
C. It is a traditional form of tourism. D. It is about visiting beautiful scenery.

It was a special space for the most important family members. ____19____ Bridesmaids have gradually become a part of Spanish weddings.
During the lively wedding reception, the bride and groom go around to each table, carrying a basket filled with small tokens of appreciation.

【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:这家属于我的酒吧现在正在装饰。句中is being decorated为谓语动词,设空处使用非谓语动词。belong to意为“属于”,无被动语态,故使用现在分词作后置定语。故填belonging。

【答案】whose
【解析】
【分析】
【详解】考查定语从句。句意:在回家的路上,他帮助了一个汽车坏了的年轻人。分析题意,此处的先行词a young man和car之间表示所属关系,从句部分缺定语。故填whose。

【答案】is being built
【解析】
【详解】考查动词时态和语态。句意:我们城市正在建一个新的图书馆,它将明年开放。分析句子可知,设空处所给动词build充当句子谓语部分,和主语A new library是被动关系,根据后面will open可推知此处表示“正在被建设”,应使用现在进行时的被动语态形式, 主语A new library是第三人称单数形式。故填is being built。
45. Almost 100computers ________ (give) to us by a local computer company since the end of last year. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】have been given
【解析】
【详解】 考查时态和语态。句意:自去年年底以来,一家本地电脑公司已经捐赠给我们近100台电脑。主语Almost 100 computers是动作的接受者,需用被动语态;“since the end of last year”表明动作从过去持续到现在,用现在完成时,主语是复数,故填have been given。

【答案】Dear editors,
As Li Hua from Class 3. Grade 1 of Chenguang High School, I’d like to contribute to the topic “New Experiences of Traditional Festivals” with my opinion about Qingming Festival.
Qingming Festival, also known as Tomb-Sweeping Day, holds a special place in Chinese culture. Traditionally, it’s a time for families to honor their ancestors by visiting their graves and offering sacrifices. People would clean the tombs, prune the surrounding grass, and lay flowers or incense as a sign of respect and remembrance.
However, in modern society, we are witnessing innovative twists on these age-old customs. Online tomb-sweeping, for instance, has become increasingly popular, especially for those who live far away from their hometowns. By visiting digital memorials or scanning QR codes on tombstones, people can pay tribute to their loved ones from anywhere in the world.
In my view, the inheritance of traditional festivals like Qingming Festival is crucial for maintaining cultural identity and fostering a sense of belonging. By combining the old with the new, we ensure that future generations will continue to cherish and celebrate these important cultural heritages.
Best regards,
Li Hua
