His mother shared a memorable video of his victory on social media. The little boy was clearly proud to earn his very first award, looking excited as he posed in front of his small bike while holding the award. His smile lit up the faces of everyone present. The boy’s mother was deeply grateful to the adult players who went out of their way to make her child feel special during the competition. She knew that her son’s bike couldn’t be compared to the actual bikes on display that day, which were much larger and faster. However, the players in the event thought it was more important to make a little boy’s dream come true. “To the two bikers who should have taken first place and second place, they taught my son so much more than they know,” the mother said. “Thank you for being so kind.” While the boy enjoyed his first prize in the bike competition, she ensured that he understood the importance of showing respect for the rules of a sport and for the other players. She encouraged him to shake hands with the other winners, thank and congratulate them. Reflecting on the event, the mother wrote, “When adults go out of their way to show kindness to kids, especially some with higher needs, the influence lasts longer than most people know. Interactions like these can really change the course of a child’s life. My little son was so lucky to experience such kindness.” It was so sweet that the other adult cyclists made the cycle-loving boy the star of the show. He will remember the amazing day, which was filled with joy and encouragement, in his whole life. 24. Why did the boy win the competition? A. He had the fastest bike. B. He was the only participant. C. His mother was there to encourage him. D. Other players let him win on purpose. 25. What did the mother teach her son after his winning? A. The necessity of competition. B. The importance of first place. C. The importance of good sportsmanship. D. The necessity of self-congratulation. 26. What can we learn about the competition’s effect on the boy from the text? A. It is short-term. B. It is lasting. C. It is negative. D. It is unclear. 27 What is the best title for the text? A. Kindness Fulfilled a Boy’s Dream B. A Mother’s Expectations for Her Son C. The Details of an Adult Bike Competition D. It Is Difficult to Raise a Child with Autism Denmark, known for its inventive restaurants and elegant design studios, is about to become known for something more basic: the world’s first tax on animal farts (屁) and burps (打嗝) — farmers have to pay for the gases from their animals. There are five times as many pigs and cows in Denmark as there are people. Nearly two-thirds of its land is taken up by farming. And agriculture is becoming its largest share of climate pollution, putting lawmakers (立法者) under great public strain to reduce it. So now, the government has agreed to tax the planet-heating emissions that all those animals expel through their farts and burps. This tax had a hard time passing. Experts suggested different ways, including a higher tax that the farmers didn’t like. Also, the government’s plan to give farmers time and money to lower the tax wasn’t supported by environmentalists for being too easy. But finally, the tax passed, making it the only such tax on livestock in the world. Starting in 2030, farmers will be charged 300 Danish kroner(about $43) for each ton of CO₂-equivalent (等量) they produce. By 2035, the tax will be more than double. Some companies and farmers support the tax. Arla Foods, a big dairy (生产乳品的) company, said its farmers can accept it. Svend Brodersen, an organic farmer, who has ripped out part of the croplands and planted trees that absorb CO₂ and vegetables, supports the tax and thinks it can show the world that farming doesn’t have to be so polluting. He said, “Without a tax, everyone will do the same tomorrow as they did yesterday.” A bigger, more difficult problem appears: Will Denmark continue to turn over so much of its land to cows and pigs? Mr. Brodersen is weighing this himself. He expects to use a larger share of his land to grow more plants for human consumption, and a smaller share for dairy. “You need cows in nature,” he said. “But you have to find a balance between how much for milk and how much for vegetables.” 28. Which is closest in meaning to “strain” in paragraph 2? A. Control. B. Pressure. C. Leadership. D. Discussion. 29. Which of the following was a reason for the tax having a hard time passing? A. The government’s not wanting to pass it. B. The farmers’ thought that the tax was too easy. C. Farmers’ being against the higher-tax proposal. D. Environmentalists’ not suggesting any good ways. 30. What can we infer from the fact that some companies and farmers support the tax? A. They have no choice but to accept the tax due to government pressure. B. They see potential benefits or positive changes connected with the tax. C. They think they can rip out the croplands and plant trees and vegetables. D. They believe the tax will immediately solve the climate pollution problem. 31. What might happen in Denmark in the future according to the passage? A. The tax on animal emissions will be called off. B. People will give up eating meat and dairy products. C. Denmark will have more dairy products than needed. D. The amount of land used for dairy farming may decrease. We human beings need to stay in touch with nature-many studies show how much better people feel when in sight of trees. Yet even more importantly, nature itself needs us to stay in touch. Many politicians and scientists have told us that we can “conquer” nature, but in reality nature will always be beyond our control — we do have the power to destroy it. The fate of all the animals and their habitats depends largely on our attitude towards them. Whether or not we ourselves survive depends on how well we look after the rest. For our sake as well as theirs, we need to consider it seriously. But how can we care at all if we spend our lives indoors? Born in South London at the end of the Second World War, at least I knew what a sparrow (麻雀) was (they’re rare now). We knew, too, that milk comes from cows and that old men can grow amazing carrots on poor land. Ultra-urban (极度城市化) as (虽然) we may have been, at least we were in touch. Now we have a generation who frankly are not in touch. So how can they care if the countryside is sold off to the highest bidders, and used to park helicopters, and our crops come free from Monsanto and our livestock (家畜) live in factories? They will know no other way. But if we settle for the ultra-urban life, if we hand our farming over to industrial chemists then, quite simply, the world will fall apart-as it has been doing already. We have to rethink what agriculture is really for, and why conservation matters to us, as well as to other creatures. Changes of strategies begin with attitude and attitude begins with awareness. 32. The second paragraph is intended to tell us that city people in the past _______ . A. were in close touch with nature B. managed to survive in the war C. killed the worms in the earth cruelly D. had a healthier diet than us 33 The new generation show no concern about the ultra-urban pattern just because _______ . A. modern agriculture doesn’t need hard work B. high profits can be made by selling city land C. they are cut off from nature D. livestock living in factories are tastier 34. From Paragraph 3 we can guess that Monsanto is likely to be _______ . A. a chemical fertilizer plant B. a scientist good at farming C. a construction corporation D. a big agricultural company 35. Towards the end of the passage, the author reminds us to _______ . A. move to the countryside B. reflect (反思) on our past behaviors C. leave space for wild animals D. turn farms into big factories Overuse of digital technology can lead to the breakdown of cognitive abilities, a phenomenon known as “Digital Dementia.” (数码痴呆症). ___36___ To avoid it, it’s essential to train your memory and reduce dependency on technology. Here are five key strategies to help you. Motivation matters If someone says to you “Hey, if you remember our call tomorrow, I’ll give you $5,000,” instead of saying “Hey, remember our call tomorrow,” you are more likely to remember that you’ve scheduled the call. So, if you want to train yourself to have a stronger memory, give yourself a stronger motivation to do so. Observation is key How often do you forget someone’s name as soon as you hear it? The reason is likely that you weren’t entirely paying attention when you heard that name. ___37___ Use memory methods There are a set of tools that you can use when you want to remember something. ___38___ Also, be sure to employ them to the point where they become second nature. Associate new information with what you know In order to learn any new piece of information, link it to something familiar. ___39___ You remember that it’s red, sweet, fruit, pie, etc. Your mind is constantly making countless associations every minute. This is how you learn. ___40___ Information by itself is forgettable, but information combined with emotion becomes a long-term memory. When we add emotions to something, we may make it adventurous, action-filled, humorous so that we’re much more likely to remember it. By training memory through motivation, observation, and effective methods, we can reduce the negative effects of digital overuse and enhance our cognitive abilities. A. Think of a cherry, for example. B. Store information in your memory. C. Add emotion to make it memorable. D. Make sure you’re always carrying these around in your mental toolkit. E. Many people experience this after using smartphones for longer periods. F. Therefore, stay fully present in important moments to improve your memory. G. This occurs when we rely too heavily on devices to store and recall information. 三、完形填空 （每小题1分 共计15分） As I turned into the parking lot at the high school the other day, I pulled my hoodie (连帽衫) over my face and ____41____ down in the driver’s seat to avoid my tennis team.

With friends, I went to the cinema, a place ___57___ the atmosphere felt like home. The audience was mostly Chinese, ___58___(chat) excitedly in our native language about the film’s cultural significance. This sense of familiarity, however, was mixed with a touch of sadness. The screening was in a small Chapel Hill theater, one of the few showing Ne Zha 2 among countless Hollywood blockbusters like Captain America 4 and Wicked. While those films had multiple daily showings and large-size posters, Ne Zha 2 ___59___ (limit) to just two or three screenings a week, with no promotional presence. Ne Zha 2 is more than a visually ___60___(attract) film; it explores topics of destiny, rebellion, and self-acceptance, which resonate deeply with Chinese audiences, especially those abroad. For international students like me, the story mirrors the challenges we meet when adapting ___61___ life in a new culture and redefining our identities.

Even as it stands as one of China’s highest-earning films, its international revenue (票房) pales when ___63___(place) beside the success of American movies in China. This imbalance highlights a one-sided cultural exchange. Watching Ne Zha 2 in the US was more than entertainment; it was a moment of cultural connection.

To achieve this, we must move beyond one-sided narratives (叙述)____65____ create opportunities for diverse stories to be shared and valued globally. 五、书信写作（15分） 66. 假定你是李华，你校上周与姐妹学校举行了友谊足球赛。你的美国朋友Aden对此很感兴趣，请你给他写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 活动目的； 2. 比赛情况； 3. 你的感受和收获。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Aden, I hope this email finds you well. _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 六、书面表达（25分） 67. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。 It was the midterm of senior one. Tim, a determined but easily-frustrated student, was facing a big challenge in math. His previous test scores were far from satisfactory, which made him quite worried about the coming mid-term exam. He spent hours every day doing math exercises, but the more he practiced, the more confused he became. One day, after another disappointing practice test, Tim almost gave up. He sat alone in the empty classroom, staring blankly at the test paper full of red crosses. Just then, his math teacher, Mr. Smith, came in. Noticing Tim’s distress, Mr. Smith sat beside him and said softly, “Tim, I know you’ve been working hard. Everyone has setbacks in learning. The key is not to be defeated by them.” With that, Mr. Smith patiently went through the test paper with Tim, explaining the mistakes one by one and giving him some useful study tips. Encouraged by Mr. Smith, Tim decided to change his learning method. He started to make a detailed study plan, dividing the math knowledge into small parts and solving problems step by step.

This experience will be followed by the Magical Christmas Drones and the World’s Largest Christmas Light Show. After that, you'll see hundreds of drones light up the sky. (在纪念草坪上，你将与光之公主奥罗拉一起为圣诞老人的雪橇照亮道路。接下来是神奇的圣诞无人机表演和世界上最大的圣诞灯光秀。在那之后，你会看到数百架无人机照亮天空)” 可知，圣诞灯光秀值得一看是因为它有奇妙的活动。故选B。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Stone Mountain Christmas tickets start at $24.99 and go up to $39.99 depending on the day.(石山公园圣诞门票根据日期不同，起价为 24.99 美元，最高为 39.99 美元)” 可知，一对夫妇仅参观石山公园圣诞节活动，至少需要花费 24.99×2 = 49.98 美元。故选C。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。主要介绍了石山公园的圣诞活动，包括世界上最大的圣诞灯光秀、圣诞游行等，还介绍了活动时间、门票信息和停车费用等内容。都是关于旅游方面的内容。所以这篇文章最有可能来自旅游网站。故选A。 A four-year-old boy with autism (孤独症) had the experience of a lifetime when he entered a real bike competition by chance and won! His mother shared a memorable video of his victory on social media. The little boy was clearly proud to earn his very first award, looking excited as he posed in front of his small bike while holding the award. His smile lit up the faces of everyone present. The boy’s mother was deeply grateful to the adult players who went out of their way to make her child feel special during the competition. She knew that her son’s bike couldn’t be compared to the actual bikes on display that day, which were much larger and faster. However, the players in the event thought it was more important to make a little boy’s dream come true. “To the two bikers who should have taken first place and second place, they taught my son so much more than they know,” the mother said. “Thank you for being so kind.” While the boy enjoyed his first prize in the bike competition, she ensured that he understood the importance of showing respect for the rules of a sport and for the other players. She encouraged him to shake hands with the other winners, thank and congratulate them. Reflecting on the event, the mother wrote, “When adults go out of their way to show kindness to kids, especially some with higher needs, the influence lasts longer than most people know. Interactions like these can really change the course of a child’s life. My little son was so lucky to experience such kindness.” It was so sweet that the other adult cyclists made the cycle-loving boy the star of the show. He will remember the amazing day, which was filled with joy and encouragement, in his whole life. 24. Why did the boy win the competition? A. He had the fastest bike. B. He was the only participant. C. His mother was there to encourage him. D. Other players let him win on purpose. 25. What did the mother teach her son after his winning? A. The necessity of competition. B. The importance of first place. C. The importance of good sportsmanship. D. The necessity of self-congratulation. 26. What can we learn about the competition’s effect on the boy from the text? A. It is short-term. B. It is lasting. C. It is negative. D. It is unclear. 27. What is the best title for the text? A. Kindness Fulfilled a Boy’s Dream B. A Mother’s Expectations for Her Son C. The Details of an Adult Bike Competition D. It Is Difficult to Raise a Child with Autism 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述成年车手善意让自闭症男孩赢得比赛的故事，母亲教导体育精神，温暖经历影响深远。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The boy’s mother was deeply grateful to the adult players who went out of their way to make her child feel special during the competition. She knew that her son’s bike couldn’t be compared to the actual bikes on display that day, which were much larger and faster.(男孩的母亲非常感谢那些在比赛中特意让她的孩子感到特别的成年运动员。她知道她儿子的自行车无法与那天展出的真正的自行车相比，后者要大得多，也快得多。)”可知，男孩的自行车不如其他选手，但他们故意让小男孩获胜。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“While the boy enjoyed his first prize in the bike competition, she ensured that he understood the importance of showing respect for the rules of a sport and for the other players. She encouraged him to shake hands with the other winners, thank and congratulate them.(当男孩在自行车比赛中获得第一名时，她确保他理解尊重运动规则和其他运动员的重要性。她鼓励他与其他获奖者握手，感谢并祝贺他们。)”可知，母亲教导孩子尊重规则与他人，强调体育精神，即这位母亲在儿子获胜后教了他良好体育精神的重要性。故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“When adults go out of their way to show kindness to kids, especially some with higher needs, the influence lasts longer than most people know. Interactions like these can really change the course of a child’s life.(当成年人特意对孩子，尤其是那些有更高需求的孩子表现出善意时，这种影响的持续时间比大多数人所知道的要长。像这样的互动真的可以改变一个孩子的一生。)”可知，这场比赛对男孩的影响持久深远的。故选B。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“A four-year-old boy with autism (孤独症) had the experience of a lifetime when he entered a real bike competition by chance and won!(一个患有自闭症的四岁男孩偶然参加了一场真正的自行车比赛并获胜，这是他一生难得的经历！)”可知，文章开篇提出主旨，即文章围绕成年骑手的善意让自闭症男孩实现比赛胜利的梦想展开。选项A“Kindness Fulfilled a Boy’s Dream(善良实现了一个男孩的梦想)”，突出“善意”与“梦想成真”的核心主题，适合作标题。故选A。 Denmark, known for its inventive restaurants and elegant design studios, is about to become known for something more basic: the world’s first tax on animal farts (屁) and burps (打嗝) — farmers have to pay for the gases from their animals. There are five times as many pigs and cows in Denmark as there are people. Nearly two-thirds of its land is taken up by farming. And agriculture is becoming its largest share of climate pollution, putting lawmakers (立法者) under great public strain to reduce it. So now, the government has agreed to tax the planet-heating emissions that all those animals expel through their farts and burps. This tax had a hard time passing. Experts suggested different ways, including a higher tax that the farmers didn’t like. Also, the government’s plan to give farmers time and money to lower the tax wasn’t supported by environmentalists for being too easy. But finally, the tax passed, making it the only such tax on livestock in the world. Starting in 2030, farmers will be charged 300 Danish kroner(about $43) for each ton of CO₂-equivalent (等量) they produce. By 2035, the tax will be more than double. Some companies and farmers support the tax. Arla Foods, a big dairy (生产乳品的) company, said its farmers can accept it. Svend Brodersen, an organic farmer, who has ripped out part of the croplands and planted trees that absorb CO₂ and vegetables, supports the tax and thinks it can show the world that farming doesn’t have to be so polluting. He said, “Without a tax, everyone will do the same tomorrow as they did yesterday.” A bigger, more difficult problem appears: Will Denmark continue to turn over so much of its land to cows and pigs? Mr. Brodersen is weighing this himself. He expects to use a larger share of his land to grow more plants for human consumption, and a smaller share for dairy. “You need cows in nature,” he said. “But you have to find a balance between how much for milk and how much for vegetables.” 28. Which is closest in meaning to “strain” in paragraph 2? A. Control. B. Pressure. C. Leadership. D. Discussion. 29. Which of the following was a reason for the tax having a hard time passing? A. The government’s not wanting to pass it. B. The farmers’ thought that the tax was too easy. C. Farmers’ being against the higher-tax proposal. D. Environmentalists’ not suggesting any good ways. 30. What can we infer from the fact that some companies and farmers support the tax? A. They have no choice but to accept the tax due to government pressure. B. They see potential benefits or positive changes connected with the tax. C. They think they can rip out the croplands and plant trees and vegetables. D. They believe the tax will immediately solve the climate pollution problem. 31. What might happen in Denmark in the future according to the passage? A. The tax on animal emissions will be called off. B. People will give up eating meat and dairy products. C. Denmark will have more dairy products than needed. D. The amount of land used for dairy farming may decrease. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道，主要讲述了丹麦即将实施对动物放屁和打嗝所产生气体征税的政策。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“And agriculture is becoming its largest share of climate pollution, putting lawmakers (立法者) under great public strain to reduce it.(农业正成为其气候污染的最大来源，这给立法者带来了巨大的公众strain，要求他们减少污染)”可知，因为农业污染严重，公众要求立法者采取措施，所以立法者面临压力。strain意为“压力”，故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Experts suggested different ways, including a higher tax that the farmers didn’t like.(专家提出了不同的方案，包括农民不喜欢的更高税额)”可知，农民反对更高税额的提议，这是该税难以通过的原因之一。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Some companies and farmers support the tax. Arla Foods, a big dairy( 生产乳品的)company, said its farmers can accept it.Svend Brodersen, an organic farmer, who has ripped out part of the croplands and planted trees that absorb CO₂ and vegetables, supports the tax and thinks it can show the world that farming doesn’t have to be so polluting.(一些公司和农民支持这项税收。大型乳制品公司Arla Foods表示，其农民可以接受。有机农民斯文德・布罗德森拔掉了部分农田，种植了吸收二氧化碳的树木和蔬菜，他支持这项税收，并认为这可以向世界表明农业不一定会造成如此大的污染)”可知，一些公司和农民看到了税收可能带来的积极变化，比如推动农业向更环保方向发展。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“He expects to use a larger share of his land to grow more plants for human consumption, and a smaller share for dairy.(他预计将用更大比例的土地种植供人类食用的植物，而用于乳制品生产的土地比例将减少)”，可推知未来丹麦用于奶牛养殖的土地数量可能会减少。故选D。 We human beings need to stay in touch with nature-many studies show how much better people feel when in sight of trees. Yet even more importantly, nature itself needs us to stay in touch. Many politicians and scientists have told us that we can “conquer” nature, but in reality nature will always be beyond our control — we do have the power to destroy it. The fate of all the animals and their habitats depends largely on our attitude towards them. Whether or not we ourselves survive depends on how well we look after the rest. For our sake as well as theirs, we need to consider it seriously. But how can we care at all if we spend our lives indoors? Born in South London at the end of the Second World War, at least I knew what a sparrow (麻雀) was (they’re rare now). We knew, too, that milk comes from cows and that old men can grow amazing carrots on poor land. Ultra-urban (极度城市化) as (虽然) we may have been, at least we were in touch. Now we have a generation who frankly are not in touch. So how can they care if the countryside is sold off to the highest bidders, and used to park helicopters, and our crops come free from Monsanto and our livestock (家畜) live in factories? They will know no other way. But if we settle for the ultra-urban life, if we hand our farming over to industrial chemists then, quite simply, the world will fall apart-as it has been doing already. We have to rethink what agriculture is really for, and why conservation matters to us, as well as to other creatures. Changes of strategies begin with attitude and attitude begins with awareness. 32. The second paragraph is intended to tell us that city people in the past _______ . A. were in close touch with nature B. managed to survive in the war C. killed the worms in the earth cruelly D. had a healthier diet than us 33. The new generation show no concern about the ultra-urban pattern just because _______ . A. modern agriculture doesn’t need hard work B. high profits can be made by selling city land C. they are cut off from nature D. livestock living in factories are tastier 34. From Paragraph 3 we can guess that Monsanto is likely to be _______ . A. a chemical fertilizer plant B. a scientist good at farming C. a construction corporation D. a big agricultural company 35. Towards the end of the passage, the author reminds us to _______ . A. move to the countryside B. reflect (反思) on our past behaviors C. leave space for wild animals D. turn farms into big factories 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了人类与自然的关系，强调城市化导致新一代与自然脱节，呼吁重新思考农业和自然保护的意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Born in South London at the end of the Second World War, at least I knew what a sparrow (麻雀) was (they’re rare now). We knew, too, that milk comes from cows and that old men can grow amazing carrots on poor land. Ultra-urban (极度城市化) as (虽然) we may have been, at least we were in touch. (我出生于第二次世界大战末期的伦敦南部，至少我知道麻雀是什么（现在已经很少见了）。我们也知道牛奶来自奶牛，老人可以在贫瘠的土地上种出神奇的胡萝卜。虽然我们是超级都市，但至少我们还保持着联系。)”可知，作者在二战末期出生在伦敦南部，尽管他们生活在极度城市化的环境中，但仍然知道什么是麻雀，知道牛奶来自牛，还知道老人可以在贫瘠的土地上种出胡萝卜。由此可知，过去的城市人尽管生活在城市，但仍然与自然保持着一定的联系。故选A。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Now we have a generation who frankly are not in touch. So how can they care if the countryside is sold off to the highest bidders, and used to park helicopters, and our crops come free from Monsanto and our livestock (家畜) live in factories? They will know no other way. (现在，坦率地说，我们这一代人是不联系的。所以他们怎么能关心农村是否被卖给出价最高的人，用来停放直升机，我们的作物从孟山都公司免费获得，我们的牲畜生活在工厂里？他们不会知道其他的方法。)”可知，现在有一代人与自然失去了联系，因此他们对农村被出售给出价最高的人、土地被用来停放直升机、庄稼来自孟山都公司以及家畜生活在工厂里等情况毫不关心。由此可知，新一代人之所以对这种极度城市化的模式不关心，是因为他们与自然失去了联系。故选C。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“So how can they care if the countryside is sold off to the highest bidders, and used to park helicopters, and our crops come free from Monsanto and our livestock (家畜) live in factories? (所以他们怎么能关心农村是否被卖给出价最高的人，用来停放直升机，我们的作物从孟山都公司免费获得，我们的牲畜生活在工厂里？)”可知，我们的作物来自孟山都公司，这表明孟山都公司与农业有关。由此推知，孟山都是一家大型农业公司。故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“We have to rethink what agriculture is really for, and why conservation matters to us, as well as to other creatures. Changes of strategies begin with attitude and attitude begins with awareness. (我们必须重新思考农业的真正意义，以及为什么保护对我们和其他生物都很重要。策略的改变从态度开始，态度从意识开始。)”可知，文章提到我们需要重新思考农业的真正目的，以及为什么保护自然对我们和其他生物都很重要。由此推知，作者呼吁我们反思过去的农业行为和对自然的态度。故选B。 Overuse of digital technology can lead to the breakdown of cognitive abilities, a phenomenon known as “Digital Dementia.” (数码痴呆症). ___36___ To avoid it, it’s essential to train your memory and reduce dependency on technology. Here are five key strategies to help you. Motivation matters If someone says to you “Hey, if you remember our call tomorrow, I’ll give you $5,000,” instead of saying “Hey, remember our call tomorrow,” you are more likely to remember that you’ve scheduled the call. So, if you want to train yourself to have a stronger memory, give yourself a stronger motivation to do so. Observation is key How often do you forget someone’s name as soon as you hear it? The reason is likely that you weren’t entirely paying attention when you heard that name. ___37___ Use memory methods There are a set of tools that you can use when you want to remember something. ___38___ Also, be sure to employ them to the point where they become second nature. Associate new information with what you know In order to learn any new piece of information, link it to something familiar. ___39___ You remember that it’s red, sweet, fruit, pie, etc. Your mind is constantly making countless associations every minute. This is how you learn. ___40___ Information by itself is forgettable, but information combined with emotion becomes a long-term memory. When we add emotions to something, we may make it adventurous, action-filled, humorous so that we’re much more likely to remember it. By training memory through motivation, observation, and effective methods, we can reduce the negative effects of digital overuse and enhance our cognitive abilities. A. Think of a cherry, for example. B. Store information in your memory. C. Add emotion to make it memorable. D. Make sure you’re always carrying these around in your mental toolkit. E.

The winner is usually the one with ____ unforced mistakes.”和“His words impressed me.”可知，Alex的话让作者有所感悟，意识到不应害怕失败，所以有了重新回到赛场的决心。故选A项。 【55题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我举起手示意我准备好了。A. request请求；B. represent代表；C. declare宣布；D. signal示意。前文提到作者带着决心走向教练，结合“I raised my hand”可推知，此时举起手是为了示意自己准备好参加比赛了。故选D项。 四、语法填空（每小题1.5分 共计15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式，并将答案填写在答题卡上。 As a Chinese exchange student in the US, I was more than excited when Ne Zha 2 arrived in American ___56___(theater).

Tim, a determined but easily-frustrated student, was facing a big challenge in math. His previous test scores were far from satisfactory, which made him quite worried about the coming mid-term exam. He spent hours every day doing math exercises, but the more he practiced, the more confused he became. One day, after another disappointing practice test, Tim almost gave up. He sat alone in the empty classroom, staring blankly at the test paper full of red crosses. Just then, his math teacher, Mr. Smith, came in. Noticing Tim’s distress, Mr. Smith sat beside him and said softly, “Tim, I know you’ve been working hard. Everyone has setbacks in learning. The key is not to be defeated by them.” With that, Mr. Smith patiently went through the test paper with Tim, explaining the mistakes one by one and giving him some useful study tips. Encouraged by Mr. Smith, Tim decided to change his learning method. He started to make a detailed study plan, dividing the math knowledge into small parts and solving problems step by step. He also joined a study group in the class. In the study group, he could discuss difficult questions with his classmates. As the mid-term exam was approaching, Tim was both nervous and looking forward to it. On the day before the exam, while he was doing the last-minute review, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his head. The headache got worse and worse, making it impossible for him to concentrate. 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。 Tim was too anxious about the exam to fall asleep, even though he knew he needed a good rest. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next day, Tim went to the exam room with Mr. Smith’s encouragement. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Tim was too anxious about the exam to fall asleep, even though he knew he needed a good rest. His mind blank and heart messy, he was at such a complete loss that he had no clue about what action to take. He buried his face in the quilt, tears blurring his eyes for a long time and finally overflowing almost uncontrollably as waves of frustration swept over him. The harder he strove to compose himself, the more restless and distracted he felt. Just at this critical moment, the louder ring of the phone broke the silence when anxiety had almost overwhelmed him. It turned out to be his math teacher. Mr. Smith encouraged him, “Tim, don’t be stressed. You have started diligently and made remarkable progress these days.” His timely encouragement was as comforting as a ray of sunshine in the dark clouds of his anxiety. Tim took a deep breath, gradually calmed down and finally managed to get some sleep. The next day, Tim went to the exam room with Mr. Smith’s encouragement. Pregnant with a mix of worry and determination, Tim unfolded the test paper. The instant his eyes landed on the paper, he found the problems manageable and accessible to tackle. For the first time, math seemed less like a foreign language but more like a puzzle waiting to be solved. With Mr. Smith’s encouragement echoing in his mind and a newfound sense of confidence cultivated, he solved all the problems smoothly. Upon the release of the results, he got a much more satisfactory grade. A look of relief tinged with excitement appeared on his face. It dawned on him that with the courage to continue in the face of adversity, even the hardest challenges could be victories. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了高一学生Tim在数学学习上遇到困难，之前考试成绩不理想，在数学老师Mr. Smith 的鼓励和帮助下，他改变学习方法并加入学习小组。然而，在期中考试前一天，Tim突然头痛，影响了复习，他焦虑得难以入睡。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“尽管Tim知道他需要好好休息，但他对考试太焦虑了，睡不着觉。”可知，第一段可描写Tim 因焦虑难以入睡的状态描写以及可能出现外界因素帮助他缓解焦虑。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天，Tim在史密斯先生的鼓励下去了考场”可知，第二段可描写Tim带着鼓励进入考场的状态及考试过程、考试结果及 Tim 的感悟。 2. 续写线索：焦虑难眠——老师来电鼓励——缓解焦虑入睡——带着鼓励进考场——顺利考试——取得好成绩——获得感悟 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①鼓励：encourage/motivate ②努力：strive/endeavor ③平静下来：calm down/compose oneself 情绪类： ① 宽慰：relief/comfort ② 沮丧：frustration/depression 【点睛】【高分句型1】With Mr. Smith’s encouragement echoing in his mind and a newfound sense of confidence cultivated, he solved all the problems smoothly.（运用了with复合结构） 【高分句型2】It dawned on him that with the courage to continue in the face of adversity, even the hardest challenges could be victories.（运用了that引导的主语从句，it作形式主语） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
