My parents and I lived a simple life. This peaceful life, however, didn’t last long. When I was six years old, a war broke out, turning our world upside down. I could no longer play with my friends, and I felt scared every day. Finally, my family decided to leave. It was 2012. As we packed up, I took one last look at our house, hoping we would return after a few months. It was also painful to say goodbye to my friends. We moved to Irbid, Jordan (约旦). It was much bigger and noisier than Nassib. Everything felt strange. At school, I felt lonely because I didn’t know anyone. I cried a lot. After finishing fourth grade, I moved to a new school. Finally, I had some friends. School was fun again. But just as things looked up, we had to move again. As refugees (难民), my parents couldn’t work or own a house in Jordan. We tried to move to Canada, and after two years of waiting, we were accepted. I was sad to leave my friends, but I was also excited—I knew I’d be flying for the first time and seeing the world from above. When the plane took off, it was nighttime. I looked down and saw the city lights below shining in the darkness. It was a beautiful sight. When we landed at Toronto, it was snowing. I knew I had a lot to learn again. I had to pick up a new language since I only spoke Arabic. I also had to get used to colder weather and different customs. But this time, I felt no fear. Now, four years has passed, and I can speak French and English well. I’ve also made a lot of friends. Adapting (适应) isn’t easy, but it’s not impossible. 36. Why did the writer’s parents decide to leave their home country? A. Because they got jobs in another country. B. Because it was no longer safe to live there. C. Because they expected some changes in their lives. D. Because they hoped that their son would be stronger. 37. What most probably appeared in the writer’s mind as he took one last look at his old house? A. “What caused the war to break out?” B. “Will I live a happier life in Jordan?” C. “When will we be able to come back here?” D. “Should I let my friends know I’m leaving?” 38. Which of the following underlined phrases has the closest meaning to “looked up” in Paragraph 5? A. The leader was so great that everyone looked up to him. B Millie looked up and saw a beautiful rainbow in the sky. C My uncle’s health looked up after he started exercising daily. D. I was surprised at what I looked up in the dictionary just now. 39. Why was the writer excited as he was about to leave Jordan? A. Because he had never been on a plane. B. Because he had never been to the West. C. Because he was very unhappy in Jordan. D. Because he was going to see snow for the first time. 40. What is the best title of this passage? A. Living in Canada B. Learning to turn the page C. Managing to move house D. Having an eye on new countries 【答案】36. B 37. C 38. C 39. A 40.

But what exactly is happiness? Is it a destination (目的地), or is it more like a road that never ends? ②Is happiness on social media (媒体)? It surely seems that way. People love posting (发布) perfect pictures of their best moments online. But if you ever want to feel bad about your life, just jump online and look through those posts. Platforms like Weibo and Xiaohongshu make us believe that we could be prettier, healthier, wealthier, and of course, happier. Plenty of research has connected social media use to low moods. One U. S. study found that people who use social media for more than two hours a day are twice as likely to feel lonely. ③But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we must have felt happy. But over the years, I’ve come to discover and experience the “hedonic treadmill (快乐适应)”. We get excited and happy when something good happens, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. In other words, happiness only lasts for so long. As the influences of one “happy” moment go off, we set out in search of new sources of happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever. ④Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness: It’s called “emotional authenticity (情感真实性)”. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and experience feelings like anger, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen! ⑤March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that happiness isn’t about running after a picture-perfect life. Trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)-it’ s just not going to happen. Instead, pay attention to your own journey and accept different feelings you’ll feel along the way. 41. If a person uses social media for over two hours a day, it is more possible for him/her to ________ A. have more friends B. feel more lonely C. become less wealthy D. experience longer happiness 42. Which of the following charts shows the change in our feelings after something good happens to us according to the text? A. B. C. D. 43.

It would be built in the country’s Vltava River area. The project received more than 1.4 million dollars, but it never started because local officials couldn’t get the building permits (许可证) for it. This past January, however, people found the project had been done-by a family of eight beavers (河狸)! Beavers are the world’s second-largest rodents (啮齿动物). They can weigh up to 30kilograms. These big animals are nature’s great builders. To make a dam, beavers first put sticks and wood into the mud (泥土) of the riverbed to form a base (底座). Then, they use materials such as rocks and mud to build the top of the base. They build the dam across the river to prevent the flow of water. This creates a large “beaver pool.” Beavers can build their homes in these pools. Because of the pools, beavers can get plenty of food and enemies can’t harm them easily. Beaver dams also make good homes for many other animals, such as fish and frogs, which helps keep the balance of nature. What’s more, they work as natural firebreaks (防火带) and help prevent flooding. The beavers have built at least four dams in the Vltava River area. Some of these dams are very big. The biggest one on record lies in Canada. The 850-meter-long dam is so large that we can see it from space! “They picked perfect places to build their dams,” said Jaroslav Obermajer, a local official. “Beavers’ designs are always better than what humans design on paper!” Nature knows best, doesn’t it? ____46____ about beavers → They are the world’s second-largest rodents. → They are up to 30 kilograms in ____47____. →They are nature’s great builders.

The largest one can be ____49____ from space. The beavers picked perfect places to build their dams and their designs are better than ____50____. ★ ____51____ beavers build their homes ① They put sticks and wood into the mud of the riverbed to form the base of a dam. ②They use ____52____ like rocks and mud to build the top of the base. ③They build the dam across the river. This creates a large “beaver pool”. ④ They build homes in the pools, which offer them food and ____53____ them from enemies. ★Why beavers’ work is ____54____ to the environment → Beaver pools make good homes for many other animals, like frogs and fish. → Beaver dams can help stop ____55____ from spreading. → Beaver dams help prevent flooding. 【答案】46.

Every time I rush down to a metro platform (地铁站台), the doors close right in front of me, and I end up late for work. ① My friends suggested I visit a fortune-teller (算命先生) to change my bad luck.But why should I spend any money when I can ask Al anything for free? ② Last night, I fed DeepSeek my birth date and birth place. Then I asked how I could turn my luck around. My hands grew sweaty (汗津津的) as it “thought deeply.” Two minutes later, my fate (命运) began appearing across the screen. ③ According to the Chinese studies, DeepSeek said, I had “too much Fire” and “not enough Earth.” To fix this, I should “write the Chinese character for ‘Earth’ 49 times every morning, wear yellow and spend more time in libraries.” Following this advice, I picked up a pen as soon as I woke up this morning and wrote “土” 49 times. Then I put on a yellow sweater and set off for work. ④ Well, it took me eight minutes to find a shared bike. When I got to the bus stop, my bus had just left. I waited 15 minutes for the next one. The driver was extra slow. When I rushed into the office — 30 minutes late — the other office workers looked at me as, in the words of my friends, I looked like “a giant lemon.” So should I write “土” 49 times again tomorrow? Or should I just set off a few minutes earlier to avoid being late? 31. What did the writer mean by saying “my luck only lives in their wishes”? A. He never has any good luck in fact. B.

My parents and I lived a simple life. This peaceful life, however, didn’t last long. When I was six years old, a war broke out, turning our world upside down. I could no longer play with my friends, and I felt scared every day. Finally, my family decided to leave. It was 2012. As we packed up, I took one last look at our house, hoping we would return after a few months. It was also painful to say goodbye to my friends. We moved to Irbid, Jordan (约旦). It was much bigger and noisier than Nassib. Everything felt strange. At school, I felt lonely because I didn’t know anyone. I cried a lot. After finishing fourth grade, I moved to a new school. Finally, I had some friends. School was fun again. But just as things looked up, we had to move again. As refugees (难民), my parents couldn’t work or own a house in Jordan. We tried to move to Canada, and after two years of waiting, we were accepted. I was sad to leave my friends, but I was also excited—I knew I’d be flying for the first time and seeing the world from above. When the plane took off it was nighttime. I looked down and saw the city lights below shining in the darkness. It was a beautiful sight. When we landed at Toronto, it was snowing. I knew I had a lot to learn again. I had to pick up a new language since I only spoke Arabic. I also had to get used to colder weather and different customs. But this time, I felt no fear. Now, four years has passed, and I can speak French and English well. I’ve also made a lot of friends. Adapting (适应) isn’t easy, but it’s not impossible. 36.

A. “What caused the war to break out?” B. “Will I live a happier life in Jordan?” C. “When will we be able to come back here?” D. “Should I let my friends know I’m leaving?” 38.

Having an eye on new countries D Unlocking Real Happiness ①When I was your age, my mom always told me, “I just want you to be happy.” She didn’t care what I grew up to be as long as I promised to stay happy. But what exactly is happiness? Is it a destination (目的地), or is it more like a road that never ends? ②Is happiness on social media (媒体)? It surely seems that way. People love posting (发布) perfect pictures of their best moments online. But if you ever want to feel bad about your life, just jump online and look through those posts. Platforms like Weibo and Xiaohongshu make us believe that we could be prettier, healthier, wealthier, and of course, happier. Plenty of research has connected social media use to low moods. One U. S. study found that people who use social media for more than two hours a day are twice as likely to feel lonely. ③But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we must have felt happy. But over the years, I’ve come to discover and experience the “hedonic treadmill (快乐适应)”. We get excited and happy when something good happens, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. In other words, happiness only lasts for so long. As the influences of one “happy” moment go off, we set out in search of new sources of happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever. ④Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness: It’s called “emotional authenticity (情感真实性)”. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and experience feelings like anger, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen! ⑤March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that happiness isn’t about running after a picture-perfect life. Trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)-it’ s just not going to happen. Instead, pay attention to your own journey and accept different feelings you’ll feel along the way. 41. If a person uses social media for over two hours a day, it is more possible for him/her to ________ A. have more friends B. feel more lonely C. become less wealthy D. experience longer happiness 42.

Stay away from them as soon as possible. 44. What does the writer want to tell people with the unicorn-catching analogy (比喻) in the last paragraph? A. Happiness is around us all the time. B. Happiness can be shared with others. C. Happiness is like a road that never ends. D. Happiness can be shown on social media. 45. Which of the following shows the structure of this text? A. B. C. D. 第二部分 非选择题 （65分） 五、任务型阅读 阅读下面的短文，并根据所读内容，在文章后表格中的空格里填入一个最恰当的单词。（注意：每个空格只填一个单词） Nature’s Engineers Build Dams (水坝) for Us Seven years ago, a dam was planned in the Czech Republic. It would be built in the country’s Vltava River area. The project received more than 1.4 million dollars, but it never started because local officials couldn’t get the building permits (许可证) for it. This past January, however, people found the project had been done-by a family of eight beavers (河狸)! Beavers are the world’s second-largest rodents (啮齿动物). They can weigh up to 30kilograms. These big animals are nature’s great builders. To make a dam, beavers first put sticks and wood into the mud (泥土) of the riverbed to form a base (底座). Then, they use materials such as rocks and mud to build the top of the base. They build the dam across the river to prevent the flow of water. This creates a large “beaver pool.” Beavers can build their homes in these pools. Because of the pools, beavers can get plenty of food and enemies can’t harm them easily. Beaver dams also make good homes for many other animals, such as fish and frogs, which helps keep the balance of nature. What’s more, they work as natural firebreaks (防火带) and help prevent flooding. The beavers have built at least four dams in the Vltava River area. Some of these dams are very big. The biggest one on record lies in Canada. The 850-meter-long dam is so large that we can see it from space! “They picked perfect places to build their dams,” said Jaroslav Obermajer, a local official. “Beavers’ designs are always better than what humans design on paper!” Nature knows best, doesn’t it? ____46____ about beavers → They are the world’s second-largest rodents. → They are up to 30 kilograms in ____47____. →They are nature’s great builders.
