There are always two choices on the shelf when we reach for the milk, cheese or yoghurt: normal or light. Less fat is better, right? But what about the goodness that can be found in dairy — Is it all there in the reduced-fat version? Five experts from various fields were asked if light dairy products were better for our health. Here are their detailed responses. Caryl Nowson, Nutritionist Switching from full-fat dairy products to low-fat reduces energy intake, thereby preventing weight gain as well as reducing saturated fat (饱和脂肪) intake. Consumption of saturated fat raises cholesterol (胆固醇) levels in the blood, which increases the risk of heart disease. So reducing saturated fat intake can assist in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. Malcolm Riley, Epidemiologist Light dairy products are great for people who want to lower their fat intake. They contain most of the nutritional benefits that can be found in full-fat dairy foods, despite containing 25 percent to 100 percent less fat than their regular dairy food equivalents. However, it is important to note that light dairy foods may be higher in some other nutrients, such as sugar. It always pays to read the nutrition tag and the ingredients list carefully. Nicholas Fuller, Obesity Researcher Both full-fat and low-fat dairy foods have the same benefits for our heart health. The most important thing is that a person includes dairy products in their diet, or suitable dairy-free alternatives that are calcium-enriched (富含钙质的), such as soy. Until we know for sure the effect of full-fat versus low-fat dairy on our weight and waistlines, people should stick with low-fat products as part of their daily eating plan. Evangeline Mantzioris, Food Scientist A recent study which followed people for 22 years found no negative link between heart health and dairy consumption — whether it is full-fat or low-fat dairy. So currently the evidence suggests that light dairy makes no difference in terms of our risk of heart disease and early death. For those who seek to manage their weight, the difference in energy intake may have a significant impact on their success. Robyn Delbridge, Dietitian Light dairy foods are not necessarily better than full-fat dairy foods. Overall, evidence supports the conclusion that dairy foods, regardless of fat content, involve a low risk of the potential harmful effects of high blood pressure. Fermented (发酵的) dairy such as yoghurt and cheese may be beneficial for heart health. The choice of full-fat versus that of low-fat foods should be made based on your whole diet pattern. 1. According to the article, ________ out of the five experts believed that light dairy products were better for our health. A. one B. two C. three D. four 2. According to the article, ________ and ________ hold contrary opinions about the relationship between dairy products and heart health. A. Caryl Nowson ... Nicholas Fuller B. Nicholas Fuller ... Robyn Delbridge C. Caryl Nowson ... Evangeline Mantzioris D. Malcolm Riley ... Evangeline Mantzioris 3. What can we infer from the article? A. Nicholas Fuller recommended that we eat more soy than dairy. B. Evangeline Mantzioris suggested that dieters stay away from full-fat foods. C. Robyn Delbridge believed that people cannot benefit from full-fat products. D. Malcolm Riley believed that all kinds of low-fat dairy products could help people stay fit. 【答案】1. B 2. C 3. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章就轻乳制品是否对我们的健康更好让来自不同领域的五位专家陈述自己观点。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。由Caryl Nowson, Nutritionist中“Switching from full-fat dairy products to low-fat reduces energy intake, thereby preventing weight gain as well as reducing saturated fat (饱和脂肪) intake. (从全脂乳制品转向低脂乳制品可以减少能量摄入，从而防止体重增加并减少饱和脂肪摄入。)”以及Malcolm Riley, Epidemiologist中“Light dairy products are great for people who want to lower their fat intake. They contain most of the nutritional benefits that can be found in full-fat dairy foods, despite containing 25 percent to 100 percent less fat than their regular dairy food equivalents. However, it is important to note that light dairy foods may be higher in some other nutrients, such as sugar. It always pays to read the nutrition tag and the ingredients list carefully.(轻质乳制品非常适合那些想减少脂肪摄入的人。它们含有全脂乳制品中的大部分营养价值，尽管其脂肪含量比普通乳制品低25%至100%。然而，值得注意的是，轻质乳制品可能含有更多的其他营养素，如糖。仔细阅读营养标签和配料表总是值得的。)”以及其他第三个专家内容可知，只有Caryl Nowson和Malcolm Riley相信轻质乳制品对我们的健康更好。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。由Caryl Nowson, Nutritionist中“Switching from full-fat dairy products to low-fat reduces energy intake, thereby preventing weight gain as well as reducing saturated fat (饱和脂肪) intake. Consumption of saturated fat raises cholesterol (胆固醇) levels in the blood, which increases the risk of heart disease. So reducing saturated fat intake can assist in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke.(从全脂乳制品转向低脂乳制品可以减少能量摄入，从而防止体重增加并减少饱和脂肪摄入。摄入饱和脂肪会提高血液中的胆固醇水平，从而增加患心脏病的风险。因此，减少饱和脂肪的摄入有助于降低患心脏病和中风的风险。)”和Evangeline Mantzioris, Food Scientist中“A recent study which followed people for 22 years found no negative link between heart health and dairy consumption — whether it is full-fat or low-fat dairy. So currently the evidence suggests that light dairy makes no difference in terms of our risk of heart disease and early death. For those who seek to manage their weight, the difference in energy intake may have a significant impact on their success.(最近一项对人们进行了22年跟踪调查的研究发现，心脏健康与乳制品消费之间没有负面联系，无论是全脂还是低脂乳制品。因此，目前的证据表明，轻度乳制品对我们患心脏病和早逝的风险没有影响。对于那些试图控制体重的人来说，能量摄入的差异可能会对他们的成功产生重大影响。)”可知，Caryl Nowson与Evangeline Mantzioris对乳制品与心脏健康的关系持相反意见。故选C项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。由Evangeline Mantzioris, Food Scientist中“For those who seek to manage their weight, the difference in energy intake may have a significant impact on their success.(对于那些试图控制体重的人来说，能量摄入的差异可能会对他们的成功产生重大影响。)”可知，Evangeline Mantzoris建议节食者远离全脂食物。故选B项。 B The Wright brothers’ mother, Susan Catherine Koerner Wright, was an aggressive woman who attended Hartsville College, a rarity in those times. She had grown up on a farm and was very handy with tools. It is said that she could fix practically anything, and she was the one to solve the boys’ early engineering problems. Their father, Bishop Milton Wright, worked long hours on the farm and studied uninterruptedly. The Wright children were expected to work hard. When they were young boys, their father Milton brought home a flying toy: a propeller (螺旋桨) made of bamboo and powered by a rubber band. Fascinated with it, the boys began experimenting with it immediately. Their great curiosity was restrained only by their lack of mechanical know-how. As the boys grew, all mechanical things fascinated them. They were especially interested in bicycles and printing presses. Unfortunately, Susan died in 1889. Later, when the family struggled financially, the brothers dropped out of school and put their hands and minds to work. They published a weekly newspaper and opened a company, selling and repairing bicycles. The business was successful enough to fund their flying experiments. It’s easy to imagine the brothers working long hours on bicycles during the day and assembling propellers, gears and motors in the back workshop in their off time. They spent hours on the beach watching birds glide (滑翔). They made sketches and obsessed over the details of materials, dimensions, rotor spin and weight. Their work continued for more than a decade until they finally developed their dream: an airplane. When it came time to test their first full-scale model in 1903, their father was anchored to the earth with doubts. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing his sons, so he made them promise never to fly together — that is, if their experiment ever got off the ground. 4. What effect did the Wright brothers’ parents have on their interests? A. They raised engineering problems. B. Both of the parents stimulated them. C. Their father blocked their passion. D. Their mother helped them set their goals. 5. What can be inferred about the Wright brothers’ business? A. It failed completely. B. It focused on flying. C. It funded their dream. D. It was barely profitable. 6. What contributed most to the Wright brothers’ success? A. The steady financial support from family. B. The lucky discovery during bicycle repair. C. Their constant innovation and experiments. D. Their experience gained during childhood. 7. Why did Bishop Milton Wright forbid his sons from flying together? A. He feared losing them all at once. B. He thought it was troublesome to fly. C. He doubted their engineering skills. D. He wanted them to focus on studies. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了莱特兄弟在父母的影响下对机械产生兴趣，通过经营生意为飞行实验提供资金，经过十多年的不断努力和实验，最终发明了飞机，以及在测试飞机时父亲对他们的担忧。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The Wright brothers’ mother, Susan Catherine Koerner Wright, was an aggressive woman who attended Hartsville College, a rarity in those times. She had grown up on a farm and was very handy with tools. It is said that she could fix practically anything, and she was the one to solve the boys’ early engineering problems. Their father, Bishop Milton Wright, worked long hours on the farm and studied uninterruptedly.(莱特兄弟的母亲苏珊・凯瑟琳・科纳・莱特是一位很有进取心的女性，她曾就读于哈茨维尔学院，这在当时是很少见的。她在农场长大，对工具运用很熟练。据说她几乎能修理任何东西，而且她是解决男孩们早期工程问题的人。他们的父亲，米尔顿・赖特主教，在农场长时间工作，并且不间断地学习)” 和第二段“The Wright children were expected to work hard. When they were young boys, their father Milton brought home a flying toy: a propeller (螺旋桨) made of bamboo and powered by a rubber band. Fascinated with it, the boys began experimenting with it immediately.(莱特家的孩子们被期望努力工作。当他们还是小男孩的时候，他们的父亲米尔顿带回家一个飞行玩具：一个由竹子制成、由橡皮筋驱动的螺旋桨。男孩们对它着迷，立刻开始对它进行实验)” 可知，父母都激发了他们的兴趣。故选B。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The business was successful enough to fund their flying experiments.(生意非常成功，足以资助他们的飞行实验)” 可知，莱特兄弟的生意为他们的梦想提供了资金。故选C。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“They spent hours on the beach watching birds glide (滑翔). They made sketches and obsessed over the details of materials, dimensions, rotor spin and weight. Their work continued for more than a decade until they finally developed their dream: an airplane.(他们花几个小时在海滩上观察鸟儿滑翔。他们画草图，痴迷于材料、尺寸、旋翼旋转和重量等细节。他们的工作持续了十多年，直到他们最终实现了他们的梦想：一架飞机)” 可知，他们不断的创新和实验对他们的成功贡献最大。故选C。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“When it came time to test their first full-scale model in 1903, their father was anchored to the earth with doubts. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing his sons, so he made them promise never to fly together—that is, if their experiment ever got off the ground.(1903 年，当他们要测试第一个全尺寸模型时，他们的父亲充满了疑虑。他无法忍受失去儿子的想法，所以他让他们承诺永远不要一起飞行 —— 也就是说，如果他们的实验能够成功起飞的话)” 可知，米尔顿・赖特主教禁止儿子们一起飞行是因为他害怕一下子失去他们。故选A。 C In a pioneering achievement, scientists have successfully transformed light into a “supersolid,” a state of matter that exhibits characteristics of both solids and liquids in the meantime. This remarkable discovery, published in the journal Science, paves the way for novel advancements in condensed-matter (凝聚态物) physics. A supersolid is a unique state of matter governed by the principles of quantum mechanics. In this state, particles form an organized, crystal structure like a solid, yet they can move freely and fluidly like a liquid without stickness. The lack of stickness means that supersolids can quickly pipe themselves out of any containers. Ordinary solids are typically static and do not move on their own. However, supersolids possess the ability to change direction and density based on particle interactions while still keeping an orderly network structure. The formation of supersolids requires extremely low temperatures, usually close to absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius). While supersolids have been previously created from atomic gases, the recent research employed a novel mechanism involving “polariton (极化子) “ systems. Polaritons are multiple particles formed by the strong coupling of light and quasiparticles (准粒子) through electromagnetic interactions. These polaritons can concentrate into the lowest possible energy state, similar to certain atomic gases. Namely, light is combined with matter, and together, they can be condensed into a supersolid. The study of supersolids is crucial because it allows us to observe the effects of tiny interactions between particles without the interference of temperature. By examining the behavior and characteristics of supersolids, we gain insights into the fundamental ways in which atoms and particles are organized. This knowledge helps us understand the world at a basic level. With further research and development, supersolids hold great potential for various applications. They could be used in quantum computing, superconductors, frictionless oils, and potentially many other applications that we have yet to imagine. The creation of a supersolid from light represents a significant leap forward in this field. 8. What is a supersolid according to the passage? A. A state of matter that exists only at extremely high temperatures. B. A state of matter that is both solid and liquid at the same time. C. A state of matter that is completely solid without liquid properties. D. A state of matter that is completely liquid without solid properties. 9. What is one of the unique characteristics of supersolids compared to ordinary solids? A. Supersolids can move on their own. B. Supersolids are always in a liquid state. C. Supersolids require high temperatures to form. D. Supersolids cannot change direction or density. 10. What is the role of polaritons in creating the supersolids in Paragraph 4? A. Polaritons provide the necessary heat to form the supersolid. B. Polaritons allow light to be condensed into a supersolid state. C. Polaritons are used to create a stronger electromagnetic field. D. Polaritons are used to increase the stickness of the supersolid, 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. The importance of further research into supersolids. B. The process of transforming light into a supersolid. C. The features and potential applications of supersolids. D. The history and potential value of supersolid research. 【答案】8. B 9. A 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学家成功将光转化为“超固体”这一开创性成果。文章阐述了超固体的定义、特性，介绍了此次研究中利用极化子系统创造超固体的机制，还说明了研究超固体的重要性以及其在量子计算等领域的潜在应用。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第一句“In a pioneering achievement, scientists have successfully transformed light into a “supersolid,” a state of matter that exhibits characteristics of both solids and liquids in the meantime. (在一项开创性的成果中，科学家们成功地将光转化为一种“超固体”，这是一种同时具有固体和液体特性的物质状态。)”以及第二段前两句“A supersolid is a unique state of matter governed by the principles of quantum mechanics. In this state, particles form an organized, crystal structure like a solid, yet they can move freely and fluidly like a liquid without stickness. (超固体是一种由量子力学原理支配的独特物质状态。在这种状态下，粒子形成像固体一样有组织的晶体结构，但它们可以像液体一样自由流畅地移动而没有粘性。)”可知，超固体是一种同时具有固体和液体特性的物质状态。故选B项。 9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段前两句“Ordinary solids are typically static and do not move on their own. However, supersolids possess the ability to change direction and density based on particle interactions while still keeping an orderly network structure. (普通固体通常是静态的，不会自行移动。然而，超固体具有根据粒子间的相互作用改变方向和密度的能力，同时仍保持有序的网络结构。)”可知，与普通固体相比，超固体的独特特征之一是它可以自行移动。故选A项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“While supersolids have been previously created from atomic gases, the recent research employed a novel mechanism involving “polariton (极化子) “ systems. Polaritons are multiple particles formed by the strong coupling of light and quasiparticles (准粒子) through electromagnetic interactions. These polaritons can concentrate into the lowest possible energy state, similar to certain atomic gases. Namely, light is combined with matter, and together, they can be condensed into a supersolid. (虽然以前超固体是由原子气体形成的，但最近的研究采用了一种涉及“极化子”系统的新机制。极化子是由光和准粒子通过电磁相互作用强烈耦合形成的多种粒子。这些极化子可以聚集到尽可能低的能量状态，类似于某些原子气体。也就是说，光与物质结合在一起，它们可以凝聚成超固体。)”可知，极化子的作用是使光凝聚成超固体状态。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章第一段介绍了科学家成功将光转化为超固体这一成果，第二段和第三段介绍了超固体的定义和特性，第四段介绍了此次研究中利用极化子系统创造超固体的机制，第五段说明了研究超固体的重要性，第六段阐述了超固体在量子计算等领域的潜在应用。所以文章主要是关于超固体的特征和潜在应用。故选C项。 D China’s population is shrinking and ageing, a process that will quicken in 2025. The total fertility rate, or the average births per woman, has fallen to 1.1, far below the 2.1 needed to maintain a stable population. After a possible small post-pandemic uptick of births in 2024, the auspicious year of the dragon, the birth rate is expected to resume its decline. Meanwhile the number of people over 60 is expected to grow from 300m in 2023 to more than 400m by 2035 — that is, from one fifth to nearly one-third of the population. This bodes ill for China’s economy, with fewer young people working to support more old folks. But state planners think they have found a silver lining: the “silver economy”. In 2024 China’s State Council issued a policy document on promoting a “silver economy to improve the well-being of the elderly”. It called for companies to invest in elder-friendly industries such as smart health care, anti-ageing products, personal pensions and tourism. “Promote theme products such as nostalgic tours and youth tours,” it recommended. The state has also called upon local governments to develop better services for old people, such as meal deliveries, at-home health care and cultural enrichment activities. The focus on silver-haired spenders makes sense. The ageing society will have massive needs — and the coming generation of retirees will have money to spend. The UN estimates that the largest age group, aged 50 — 60, includes 230m people, most of whom will retire in the next decade. “They are the wealthiest sector of society,” says Tim Lie of Quantasing, an educational-technology firm that pivoted to focus on the silver economy in 2022. Older Chinese tend to be more frugal. But the growing groups of those in “new middle age” (45 — 60) and “old age” (over 60) are in a sweet spot in the middle, says Mr Xie. They spent most of their working lives in China’s boom years and are retiring with enough time to enjoy their savings. Quantasing has attracted 120m users to its online courses, which help retired people develop hobbies such as calligraphy, meditation and piano. Only 400,000 are paying customers so far, but Quantasing expects that number to grow as it expands into wellness products and tourism. There are challenges to developing the silver economy. The elderly are susceptible to scams. They will need consumer protection, even as the government encourages firms to sell them as much as possible. Chen Gong of Peking University warns that too many firms may be piling in without enough thorough research. “Many policies are shouting a lot but doing little,” he says. Cai Fang of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences points out that more welfare and social services for the elderly are needed. Silver-haired spending is bound to grow. It will be tougher to make sure that the well-being of China’s old folks grows along with it. 12. Which of the following best describes the relationship between China’s population change and the “silver economy”? A. The decline in the birth rate directly leads to the emergence of the “silver economy”. B. The “silver economy” is basically a result of the post-pandemic economic restructuring. C. The “silver economy” aims to reverse the trend of population shrinking and ageing. D. The growth of the elderly population and related challenges boost “silver economy”. 13. What does the underlined word “frugal” most likely mean in this context? A. Economical. B. Impulsive. C. Generous. D. Considerate. 14. What can be inferred from the fact that only 400,000 out of 120m Quantasing users are paying customers? A. The online courses provided by Quantasing are not tailored to the needs of the elderly. B. Retired people in China are generally not willing to subscribe to such courses. C. Quantasing has great potential to increase its revenue by improving its business model. D. The market for elder-friendly online courses is not promising in the predictable future. 15. Which of the following factors is least likely to contribute to the growth of the “silver economy” in China? A. The continuous increase in the number of retirees with certain financial resources. B. The measures to encourage young labour to apply themselves to support the elderly. C. The improvement of the quality of life and consumption concepts of the elderly. D. The effective implementation of policies to facilitate firms investing in elder-friendly industries. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了中国面临人口减少和老龄化加速问题，政府通过发展“银发经济”应对挑战，并指出新一代退休群体消费能力较强，市场潜力大，但仍需政策保障和企业创新以避免风险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“China’s population is shrinking and ageing, a process that will quicken in 2025. (中国人口正在缩减并老龄化，这一进程将在2025年加速)”和“This bodes ill for China’s economy, with fewer young people working to support more old folks. But state planners think they have found a silver lining: the “silver economy”. (这对中国经济来说是个不祥之兆，因为更少的年轻人需要供养更多的老年人。但国家规划者认为他们找到了一个积极因素：‘银发经济’)”可知，中国老龄化加剧及养老压力推动了银发经济的发展。故选D项。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词的下文“But the growing groups of those in “new middle age” (45 — 60) and “old age” (over 60) are in a sweet spot in the middle, says Mr Xie. They spent most of their working lives in China’s boom years and are retiring with enough time to enjoy their savings. (但谢先生指出，处于‘新中年’，即45至60岁，和‘老年’，即60岁以上，这两个增长群体正处于最佳状态。他们职业生涯的大部分时间都处于中国经济高速增长期，如今退休后有充足的时间享受积蓄)”可知，新一代退休群体因经济条件较好，愿意消费，且此处包含转折，故推测上了年纪的中国人往往更节俭，画线词意为“节约的，节俭的”，与Economical“节约的”意思相近。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Quantasing has attracted 120m users to its online courses, which help retired people develop hobbies such as calligraphy, meditation and piano. Only 400,000 are paying customers so far, but Quantasing expects that number to grow as it expands into wellness products and tourism. (目前，Quantasing的在线课程已吸引1.2亿用户学习书法、冥想和钢琴等退休爱好课程。虽然目前付费用户仅40万，但随着公司向健康产品和旅游业务拓展，这一数字有望持续增长)”可推知，Quantasing用户基数大，付费转化率低，但商业模式优化后有望提升收益。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“It called for companies to invest in elder-friendly industries such as smart health care, anti-ageing products, personal pensions and tourism. (政府呼吁企业投资发展适老产业，包括智能医疗、抗衰老产品、个人养老金和老年旅游等领域)”、第三段中“The ageing society will have massive needs — and the coming generation of retirees will have money to spend. The UN estimates that the largest age group, aged 50 — 60, includes 230m people, most of whom will retire in the next decade. (老龄化社会将催生巨大需求——新一代退休群体将具备可观的消费能力。据联合国估算，中国50至60岁年龄段人口规模最大，达2.3亿人，其中绝大多数将在未来十年内退休)”和第四段中“But the growing groups of those in “new middle age” (45 — 60) and “old age” (over 60) are in a sweet spot in the middle, says Mr Xie. They spent most of their working lives in China’s boom years and are retiring with enough time to enjoy their savings. (但谢先生指出，处于‘新中年’，即45至60岁，和‘老年’，即60岁以上，这两个增长群体正处于最佳状态。他们职业生涯的大部分时间都处于中国经济高速增长期，如今退休后有充足的时间享受积蓄)”可知，有一定财力的退休人员不断增加，老年人生活质量和消费观念的提高，政策支持适老产业，均可推动银发经济，鼓励年轻劳动力致力于赡养老人的措施与银发经济发展无关。故选B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。 The Hedgehog’s Dilemma is a concept that explores the tension between the desire for close relationships and the risk of emotional harm. Schopenhauer, a German philosopher, used the metaphor of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day: they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other’s quills(刺). They separate, only to feel the cold again, eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain. ____16____. So that’s the theory, but what does this look like in our everyday lives? ____17____ But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future? Schopenhauer’s advice would probably be “yes”. ____18____. For example, a review, which analyzed 148 studies involving 308,849 participants, found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased like hood of survival. Additionally, the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long-term isolation (隔离) are equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. ____19____ Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains chat behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood. While these defenses may provide short-term protection, they can block meaningful connections if they persist. In conclusion, the natural longing for connection drives us to seek out meaningful relationships, even when we know that weakness can lead to emotional pain. Yes, there are risks in exposing our true selves and emotions, but unlike hedgehogs, humans don’t come with the quills built in. ____20____ So when we learn to lower our defences for safe people, there’s a chance we actually can have it all — the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt. A. However, modern research offers a different perspective. B. This metaphor shows the importance of adaptability in nature. C. Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences. D. These experiences can make it difficult to trust others in the future. E. Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships. F. This reflects humans’ struggle to balance closeness and self-protection. G. We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect our selves. 【答案】16. F 17. E 18. A 19. C 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍刺猬困境的概念，及其在生活中的体现和相关研究观点。 【16题详解】 上文“Schopenhauer, a German philosopher, used the metaphor of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day: they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other’s quills (刺). They separate, only to feel the cold again, eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain.(德国哲学家叔本华用刺猬在寒冷冬日取暖的比喻：它们挤在一起取暖，但很快就会感受到彼此刺的疼痛。它们分开，却又再次感到寒冷，最终找到一个合适的距离，既能取暖又不会疼痛。)”描述了刺猬困境的具体情况，F选项“This reflects humans’ struggle to balance closeness and self-protection.(这反映了人类在平衡亲密关系和自我保护之间的挣扎。)”中的“This”指代上文刺猬的例子，且准确地总结出该例子所反映的人类在亲密关系和自我保护间的挣扎，承接上文，符合语境。故选F项。 【17题详解】 上文“So that’s the theory, but what does this look like in our everyday lives?(这就是这个理论，但在我们的日常生活中这是什么样的呢？)”引出在生活中刺猬困境的体现这一话题，下文“But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future?(但是我们应该让这些经历阻碍我们在未来放下戒备吗？)”中的“these experiences”提示上文应提及一些经历，E选项“Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships.(许多人都有过来自亲密关系的情感痛苦的经历。)”既回答了上文关于生活中刺猬困境的问题，又引出下文对这些经历影响的讨论，符合语境。故选E项。 【18题详解】 上文“But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future? Schopenhauer’s advice would probably be ‘yes’.(但我们应该让这些经历阻止我们在未来放松警惕吗？叔本华的建议可能是“是的”)”表明叔本华的观点，下文“For example, a review, which analyzed 148 studies involving 308,849 participants, found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased likelihood of survival. Additionally, the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long-term isolation (隔离) are equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day.(例如，一项分析了148项涉及308,849名参与者的研究的综述发现，拥有强大社交关系的个体生存的可能性增加了50%。此外，国家老龄化研究所报告称，长期隔离的健康风险相当于每天抽15支烟。)”通过研究表明亲密关系的好处，与叔本华的观点相反，A选项“However, modern research offers a different perspective.(然而，现代研究提供了不同的观点。)”起到转折作用，引出下文与叔本华观点不同的现代研究内容，符合语境。故选A项。 【19题详解】 下文“Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains chat behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood. While these defenses may provide short-term protection, they can block meaningful connections if they persist.(心理治疗师希拉里・桑德斯解释说，像孤立或愤怒这样的行为在童年时期可以作为生存策略。虽然这些防御机制可能提供短期保护，但如果持续下去，它们可能会阻碍有意义的联系。)”说明一些防御行为的起源和影响，C选项“Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences.(大多数防御反应源于早期经历。)”中的“defensive reactions”与下文“these defenses”相呼应，且概括了下文关于防御行为起源的内容，引出下文具体解释，符合语境。故选C项。 【20题详解】 上文“Yes, there are risks in exposing our true selves and emotions, but unlike hedgehogs, humans don’t come with the quills built in.(是的，暴露真实的自我和情感存在风险，但与刺猬不同，人类没有天生的刺。)”指出人类与刺猬的不同，下文“So when we learn to lower our defences for safe people, there’s a chance we actually can have it all — the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt.(所以，当我们学会为可靠的人放下防备时，我们实际上有可能拥有一切——真正关系的温暖而无需害怕受伤。)”说明人类可以为可靠的人放下防备，G选项“We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect ourselves.(我们有能力选择我们信任的人，以及如何保护自己。)”承上启下，既体现了人类与刺猬的不同，即人类有选择和保护自己的能力，又引出下文为可靠的人放下防备的内容，符合语境。故选G项。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 By the time I went into the Priory Clinic to be treated for shopping addiction, I had crazily built up a debt of $28,000.

For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. I was lucky to grow up with my grandparents living with us. As a child, I didn’t realize how important that was but, as I got older, I saw firsthand how much care and support they needed. After much reflection, I now understand that caring for the elderly isn’t just about doing chores for them. It’s about showing them respect, love and attention, as well as ____36____ (find) the time to do so in a fast-paced and demanding world, a world ____37____ many of us are time-poor. My grandparents taught me that older people have a lot of wisdom to share. Their advice offers new perspectives on life, relationships and even success, precisely ____38____ they’ve already experienced and navigated many of the struggles we are facing now. For instance, my grandma always reminded me to be patient and listen to others. Over time, I realized just ____39____ absolutely correct she was. However, with age ____40____ (come) challenges. Tasks become more arduous (费力的). For someone who has been self-sufficient most of their life, this can destroy their confidence. We should ____41____ (remind) of this often. When helping them manage their day, we should ensure that they maintain a sense of independence. Beyond physical challenges, many elderly people often face loneliness or isolation, especially after losing friends and family over the years. Spending time with the elderly, ____42____ it’s just sitting down to have a conversation or watching TV together, can make an enormous difference. I remember how much my grandma’s eyes would light up when we’d sit down to play a board game or chat about my school day. Little moments like ____43____ show that you care, and they’re more important than you might think. Technology, too, can be a way to connect with them by helping them connect with others. Whether it’s teaching them how to use smart devices, reach family over video calls, ____44____ access services online, these small actions can make them feel like a part of a world that often seems ____45____ (move) too quickly for them. 【答案】36. finding 37. where 38. because##as 39 how 40. come 41. be reminded 42. even if##even though 43. these might##those might##these may##those may 44. or 45. to be moving##to move 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了作者与祖父母共同生活的经历以及对老年人关怀的理解。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这不仅仅是关于向他们展示尊重、爱和关注，还包括在这样一个快节奏且要求极高的世界里找到时间去做这些事情，在这个世界中，我们中的许多人时间都是匮乏的。as well as连接并列结构，根据“It’s about showing them respect, love and attention”可知，空处用动名词形式与showing表并列。故填finding。 【37题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：同上。空处填where引导定语从句，指代先行词a world，并在从句中作地点状语。故填where。 【38题详解】 考查连词。句意：他们的建议为生活、人际关系乃至成功提供了新的视角，这正是因为他们已经经历过并且应对过我们现在所面临的许多挑战。根据下文“they’ve already experienced and navigated many of the struggles we are facing now.”可知，下文表示他们的建议为生活、人际关系乃至成功提供了新的视角的原因，所以空处需用表示原因的连词来连接前后句子。故填because/as。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：随着时间的推移，我意识到她有多么绝对地正确。空处用how修饰形容词correct，引导感叹句作realized宾语。故填how。 【40题详解】 考查动词的时态和倒装。句意：然而，随着年龄的增长，挑战也随之而来。介词短语位于句首，句子采用完全倒装，主语是challenges，空处在句中作谓语，句子描述现在的一般情况，应用一般现在时，主语为复数名词，谓语动词用come。故填come。 【41题详解】 考查情态动词的被动语态。句意：这一点我们应该经常被提醒。主语we与动词remind构成被动关系，因此使用被动语态，should后加动词原形。故填be reminded。 【42题详解】 考查让步状语从句。句意：与老年人共度时光，即使是坐下来聊聊天或是一起看电视，都能产生巨大的影响。空处引导让步状语从句，即尽管这些活动看起来很简单，但它们仍然能产生很大的影响。even if和even though表示“即使”或“尽管”。故填even if/though。 【43题详解】 考查代词和情态动词。句意：比如这些小小的时刻，可能显示出你的关心，而且它们比你想象的要重要得多。空处用代词来指代Little moments，并在从句中作为like的宾语，用these或those，表示“可能”用情态动词may或might，后接动词原形show构成谓语动词。故填these/those may/might。 【44题详解】 考查连词。句意：无论是教他们如何使用智能设备、通过视频通话联系家人，还是在线访问服务，这些小小的行动都可以让他们感觉自己是这个世界的一部分，而这个世界对他们来说往往显得变化得太快。Whether…or表示“是……还是”，根据“use smart devices, reach family over video calls,”以及“access services online”可知，这里列举了多个项目，空处使用or连接。故填or。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：同上。seem to do意为“似乎，好像”，seems是系动词，后面跟不定式，表示一种持续的状态或趋势，也可以表示一种持续进行的动作或状态，用动词不定式的进行式to be moving。故填to move/to be moving。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节：应用文写作(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，请你就校英语论坛最近发表的热点话题“Our city are being taken over by wild animals”发表看法。 内容包括：1.分析原因； 2.你的观点和建议。 注意：词数80（开头已给出不计入词数） Recently, it seems common that wild animals like foxes and racoons have been spotted in urban areas. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Recently, it seems common that wild animals like foxes and racoons have been spotted in urban areas. This phenomenon primarily results from habitat destruction due to urban expansion, forcing animals to seek food and shelter in cities. Additionally, improved environmental policies have boosted wildlife populations, while inadequate waste management attracts them to human settlements. In my view, we should respect their presence and live harmoniously. To achieve this, authorities should strengthen habitat protection laws and set up wildlife-friendly areas. Besides, educating people to secure trash bins and avoid feeding wild animals is crucial to prevent conflicts. Only by protecting them can we maintain ecological balance. 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生针对“城市被野生动物占据”这一热点话题，分析产生该现象的原因，并提出个人观点与建议。 【详解】1.词汇积累 主要地：primarily→mainly 促进：boost→increase 不足的：inadequate→insufficient 和谐地：harmoniously→peacefully 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Only by protecting them can we maintain ecological balance. 拓展句：If we fail to protect them, the ecological balance will be disrupted. 【点睛】【高分句型 1】 This phenomenon primarily results from habitat destruction due to urban expansion, forcing animals to seek food and shelter in cities.

Ray was holding the cup in his hand as he stared out of the window. He was a re gular lunch customer on Mondays and Fridays. “Can I refill the cup for you, Ray?” I asked. He looked up with a peaceful smile and held his cup out toward me. “You know, I’ve been coming here for several years, and I have to say you have the nicest smile,” he whispered. “Can you sit for minutes... please?” I sat down and he smiled, “Your smile reminds me of my granddaughter, Sharon.” He took out a picture of her from his wall et and handed it to me. “She graduated from college last year.” “What a nice-looking girl!” I said. “Does she live near you?” Ray shook his head as he put the picture back in his wallet. “She moved to California last year. I miss her a lot. She and I used to have lunch together on Monday s and Fridays,” he said. “She now wants me to move out there to be closer to her.” “So, why don’t you?” “I don’t know if I really want to move. I’ve been here all my life,” he answered. I heard my boss calling me. “I guess that’s meant for me,” I said as I stood up. We smiled at each other. “Ray……if my grandfather had been like you, I’d have asked him day and night to move closer to me, too.” I patted his shoulder. “Don’t wait too long. Nice talking with you...” For the next couple of weeks, Ray continued to come on Mondays and Fridays. But on that Monday of Thanksgiving week, he didn’t show up. Then one Wednesday afternoon, walking out to my car after work, I heard a voice call my name from across the parking lot. 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。 It was Ray, hurrying to catch up to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Have you made up your mind to move?” I asked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 It was Ray, hurrying to catch up to me. “Is everything OK. Ray? I didn’t see you on Monday.” I said. Ray pulled out a folded piece of paper and handed it to me with a broad smile on his face. It was addressed to Ray with a California return address. “Open it,” Ray was excited. I followed him and found it reading, “…So I’ll be flying in on Wednesday at 7:10 pm. Hope you can pick me up. I can’t wait for it... Love you. Sharon.” Ray looked as happy as a kid. “Have you made up your mind to move?” I asked. “The moving truck left on Monday and is arriving there today.” he replied. “Sharon is coming here to help drive my car... I’m finally going.” “Wow!” I said as I gave him a big hug. “What made you change your mind?” “Well... you did.” he looked down at the letter as he folded it back up. “These last couple of weeks, you reminded me of how important being a grandfather is.” How I felt delighted to make a difference to him! 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者为了上大学而当服务员赚钱，有一天作者和叫Ray的一个常客聊天，了解到他的孙女希望他搬到加州去，但是Ray有犹豫，作者告诉Ray如果自己的祖父像他这样，自己也会要求祖父住得离自己近点，后来Ray在感恩节那一周的周一没有出现，一个星期三的下午，作者下班遇到了他。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“是雷，他急着追上我。”可知，第一段可描写作者和Ray交流。 ②由第二段首句内容““你决定搬家了吗？”我问。”可知，第二段可描写作者了解到Ray要搬去加州了以及他决定搬走的原因。 2.续写线索：拿出纸——作者看纸上的内容——Ray开心——拥抱——提醒——作者感悟 3词汇激活 行为类 ①拿出：pull out/take out ②递：hand/pass ③拥抱某人：give sb. a hug/embrace sb. 情绪类 ①高兴的：happy/delighted/pleased ②兴奋的：excited/thrilled 【点睛】[高分句型1] Hope you can pick me up.

There are always two choices on the shelf when we reach for the milk, cheese or yoghurt: normal or light. Less fat is better, right? But what about the goodness that can be found in dairy — Is it all there in the reduced-fat version? Five experts from various fields were asked if light dairy products were better for our health. Here are their detailed responses. Caryl Nowson, Nutritionist Switching from full-fat dairy products to low-fat reduces energy intake, thereby preventing weight gain as well as reducing saturated fat (饱和脂肪) intake. Consumption of saturated fat raises cholesterol (胆固醇) levels in the blood, which increases the risk of heart disease. So reducing saturated fat intake can assist in reducing the risk of heart disease and stroke. Malcolm Riley, Epidemiologist Light dairy products are great for people who want to lower their fat intake. They contain most of the nutritional benefits that can be found in full-fat dairy foods, despite containing 25 percent to 100 percent less fat than their regular dairy food equivalents. However, it is important to note that light dairy foods may be higher in some other nutrients, such as sugar. It always pays to read the nutrition tag and the ingredients list carefully. Nicholas Fuller, Obesity Researcher Both full-fat and low-fat dairy foods have the same benefits for our heart health. The most important thing is that a person includes dairy products in their diet, or suitable dairy-free alternatives that are calcium-enriched (富含钙质的), such as soy. Until we know for sure the effect of full-fat versus low-fat dairy on our weight and waistlines, people should stick with low-fat products as part of their daily eating plan. Evangeline Mantzioris, Food Scientist A recent study which followed people for 22 years found no negative link between heart health and dairy consumption — whether it is full-fat or low-fat dairy. So currently the evidence suggests that light dairy makes no difference in terms of our risk of heart disease and early death. For those who seek to manage their weight, the difference in energy intake may have a significant impact on their success. Robyn Delbridge, Dietitian Light dairy foods are not necessarily better than full-fat dairy foods. Overall, evidence supports the conclusion that dairy foods, regardless of fat content, involve a low risk of the potential harmful effects of high blood pressure. Fermented (发酵的) dairy such as yoghurt and cheese may be beneficial for heart health. The choice of full-fat versus that of low-fat foods should be made based on your whole diet pattern. 1. According to the article, ________ out of the five experts believed that light dairy products were better for our health. A. one B. two C. three D. four 2. According to the article, ________ and ________ hold contrary opinions about the relationship between dairy products and heart health. A. Caryl Nowson ... Nicholas Fuller B. Nicholas Fuller ... Robyn Delbridge C. Caryl Nowson ... Evangeline Mantzioris D. Malcolm Riley ... Evangeline Mantzioris 3. What can we infer from the article? A. Nicholas Fuller recommended that we eat more soy than dairy. B. Evangeline Mantzioris suggested that dieters stay away from full-fat foods. C. Robyn Delbridge believed that people cannot benefit from full-fat products. D. Malcolm Riley believed that all kinds of low-fat dairy products could help people stay fit. B The Wright brothers’ mother, Susan Catherine Koerner Wright, was an aggressive woman who attended Hartsville College, a rarity in those times. She had grown up on a farm and was very handy with tools. It is said that she could fix practically anything, and she was the one to solve the boys’ early engineering problems. Their father, Bishop Milton Wright, worked long hours on the farm and studied uninterruptedly. The Wright children were expected to work hard. When they were young boys, their father Milton brought home a flying toy: a propeller (螺旋桨) made of bamboo and powered by a rubber band. Fascinated with it, the boys began experimenting with it immediately. Their great curiosity was restrained only by their lack of mechanical know-how. As the boys grew, all mechanical things fascinated them. They were especially interested in bicycles and printing presses. Unfortunately, Susan died in 1889. Later, when the family struggled financially, the brothers dropped out of school and put their hands and minds to work. They published a weekly newspaper and opened a company, selling and repairing bicycles. The business was successful enough to fund their flying experiments. It’s easy to imagine the brothers working long hours on bicycles during the day and assembling propellers, gears and motors in the back workshop in their off time. They spent hours on the beach watching birds glide (滑翔). They made sketches and obsessed over the details of materials, dimensions, rotor spin and weight. Their work continued for more than a decade until they finally developed their dream: an airplane. When it came time to test their first full-scale model in 1903, their father was anchored to the earth with doubts. He couldn’t bear the thought of losing his sons, so he made them promise never to fly together — that is, if their experiment ever got off the ground. 4. What effect did the Wright brothers’ parents have on their interests? A. They raised engineering problems. B Both of the parents stimulated them. C. Their father blocked their passion. D. Their mother helped them set their goals. 5 What can be inferred about the Wright brothers’ business? A. It failed completely. B. It focused on flying. C. It funded their dream. D. It was barely profitable. 6. What contributed most to the Wright brothers’ success? A. The steady financial support from family. B. The lucky discovery during bicycle repair. C. Their constant innovation and experiments. D Their experience gained during childhood. 7. Why did Bishop Milton Wright forbid his sons from flying together? A. He feared losing them all at once. B. He thought it was troublesome to fly. C. He doubted their engineering skills. D. He wanted them to focus on studies. C In a pioneering achievement, scientists have successfully transformed light into a “supersolid,” a state of matter that exhibits characteristics of both solids and liquids in the meantime. This remarkable discovery, published in the journal Science, paves the way for novel advancements in condensed-matter (凝聚态物) physics. A supersolid is a unique state of matter governed by the principles of quantum mechanics. In this state, particles form an organized, crystal structure like a solid, yet they can move freely and fluidly like a liquid without stickness. The lack of stickness means that supersolids can quickly pipe themselves out of any containers. Ordinary solids are typically static and do not move on their own. However, supersolids possess the ability to change direction and density based on particle interactions while still keeping an orderly network structure. The formation of supersolids requires extremely low temperatures, usually close to absolute zero (minus 459.67 degrees Fahrenheit or minus 273.15 degrees Celsius). While supersolids have been previously created from atomic gases, the recent research employed a novel mechanism involving “polariton (极化子) “ systems. Polaritons are multiple particles formed by the strong coupling of light and quasiparticles (准粒子) through electromagnetic interactions. These polaritons can concentrate into the lowest possible energy state, similar to certain atomic gases. Namely, light is combined with matter, and together, they can be condensed into a supersolid. The study of supersolids is crucial because it allows us to observe the effects of tiny interactions between particles without the interference of temperature. By examining the behavior and characteristics of supersolids, we gain insights into the fundamental ways in which atoms and particles are organized. This knowledge helps us understand the world at a basic level. With further research and development, supersolids hold great potential for various applications. They could be used in quantum computing, superconductors, frictionless oils, and potentially many other applications that we have yet to imagine. The creation of a supersolid from light represents a significant leap forward in this field. 8. What is a supersolid according to the passage? A. A state of matter that exists only at extremely high temperatures. B. A state of matter that is both solid and liquid at the same time. C. A state of matter that is completely solid without liquid properties. D. A state of matter that is completely liquid without solid properties. 9. What is one of the unique characteristics of supersolids compared to ordinary solids? A. Supersolids can move on their own. B. Supersolids are always in a liquid state. C. Supersolids require high temperatures to form. D. Supersolids cannot change direction or density. 10. What is the role of polaritons in creating the supersolids in Paragraph 4? A. Polaritons provide the necessary heat to form the supersolid. B. Polaritons allow light to be condensed into a supersolid state. C. Polaritons are used to create a stronger electromagnetic field. D. Polaritons are used to increase the stickness of the supersolid, 11. What is the passage mainly about? A. The importance of further research into supersolids. B. The process of transforming light into a supersolid. C. The features and potential applications of supersolids. D. The history and potential value of supersolid research. D China’s population is shrinking and ageing, a process that will quicken in 2025. The total fertility rate, or the average births per woman, has fallen to 1.1, far below the 2.1 needed to maintain a stable population. After a possible small post-pandemic uptick of births in 2024, the auspicious year of the dragon, the birth rate is expected to resume its decline. Meanwhile the number of people over 60 is expected to grow from 300m in 2023 to more than 400m by 2035 — that is, from one fifth to nearly one-third of the population. This bodes ill for China’s economy, with fewer young people working to support more old folks. But state planners think they have found a silver lining: the “silver economy”. In 2024 China’s State Council issued a policy document on promoting a “silver economy to improve the well-being of the elderly”. It called for companies to invest in elder-friendly industries such as smart health care, anti-ageing products, personal pensions and tourism. “Promote theme products such as nostalgic tours and youth tours,” it recommended. The state has also called upon local governments to develop better services for old people, such as meal deliveries, at-home health care and cultural enrichment activities. The focus on silver-haired spenders makes sense. The ageing society will have massive needs — and the coming generation of retirees will have money to spend. The UN estimates that the largest age group, aged 50 — 60, includes 230m people, most of whom will retire in the next decade. “They are the wealthiest sector of society,” says Tim Lie of Quantasing, an educational-technology firm that pivoted to focus on the silver economy in 2022. Older Chinese tend to be more frugal. But the growing groups of those in “new middle age” (45 — 60) and “old age” (over 60) are in a sweet spot in the middle, says Mr Xie. They spent most of their working lives in China’s boom years and are retiring with enough time to enjoy their savings. Quantasing has attracted 120m users to its online courses, which help retired people develop hobbies such as calligraphy, meditation and piano. Only 400,000 are paying customers so far, but Quantasing expects that number to grow as it expands into wellness products and tourism. There are challenges to developing the silver economy. The elderly are susceptible to scams. They will need consumer protection, even as the government encourages firms to sell them as much as possible. Chen Gong of Peking University warns that too many firms may be piling in without enough thorough research. “Many policies are shouting a lot but doing little,” he says. Cai Fang of the Chinese Academy of Social Sciences points out that more welfare and social services for the elderly are needed. Silver-haired spending is bound to grow. It will be tougher to make sure that the well-being of China’s old folks grows along with it. 12. Which of the following best describes the relationship between China’s population change and the “silver economy”? A. The decline in the birth rate directly leads to the emergence of the “silver economy”. B. The “silver economy” is basically a result of the post-pandemic economic restructuring. C. The “silver economy” aims to reverse the trend of population shrinking and ageing. D. The growth of the elderly population and related challenges boost “silver economy”. 13. What does the underlined word “frugal” most likely mean in this context? A. Economical. B. Impulsive. C. Generous. D. Considerate. 14. What can be inferred from the fact that only 400,000 out of 120m Quantasing users are paying customers? A. The online courses provided by Quantasing are not tailored to the needs of the elderly. B. Retired people in China are generally not willing to subscribe to such courses. C. Quantasing has great potential to increase its revenue by improving its business model. D. The market for elder-friendly online courses is not promising in the predictable future. 15. Which of the following factors is least likely to contribute to the growth of the “silver economy” in China? A. The continuous increase in the number of retirees with certain financial resources. B. The measures to encourage young labour to apply themselves to support the elderly. C. The improvement of the quality of life and consumption concepts of the elderly. D. The effective implementation of policies to facilitate firms investing in elder-friendly industries. 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。 The Hedgehog’s Dilemma is a concept that explores the tension between the desire for close relationships and the risk of emotional harm. Schopenhauer, a German philosopher, used the metaphor of hedgehogs seeking warmth on a cold winter day: they crowd together for comfort but soon feel the pain of each other’s quills(刺). They separate, only to feel the cold again, eventually finding a suitable distance that allows warmth without pain. ____16____. So that’s the theory, but what does this look like in our everyday lives? ____17____ But should we let these experiences block us from letting our guard down in the future? Schopenhauer’s advice would probably be “yes”. ____18____. For example, a review, which analyzed 148 studies involving 308,849 participants, found that individuals with strong social connections have a 50% increased like hood of survival. Additionally, the National Institute on Aging reports that the health risks of long-term isolation (隔离) are equivalent to smoking 15 cigarettes a day. ____19____ Psychological therapist Hilary Sanders explains chat behaviors like isolation or anger can serve as survival strategies during childhood. While these defenses may provide short-term protection, they can block meaningful connections if they persist. In conclusion, the natural longing for connection drives us to seek out meaningful relationships, even when we know that weakness can lead to emotional pain. Yes, there are risks in exposing our true selves and emotions, but unlike hedgehogs, humans don’t come with the quills built in. ____20____ So when we learn to lower our defences for safe people, there’s a chance we actually can have it all — the warmth of genuine relationships without the fear of being hurt. A. However, modern research offers a different perspective. B. This metaphor shows the importance of adaptability in nature. C. Most of the defensive reactions originate from early experiences. D. These experiences can make it difficult to trust others in the future. E. Many people share stories of emotional pain from close relationships. F. This reflects humans’ struggle to balance closeness and self-protection. G. We have the capacity to choose whom we trust and how we protect our selves. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 By the time I went into the Priory Clinic to be treated for shopping addiction, I had crazily built up a debt of $28,000.

I was lucky to grow up with my grandparents living with us. As a child, I didn’t realize how important that was but, as I got older, I saw firsthand how much care and support they needed. After much reflection, I now understand that caring for the elderly isn’t just about doing chores for them. It’s about showing them respect, love and attention, as well as ____36____ (find) the time to do so in a fast-paced and demanding world, a world ____37____ many of us are time-poor. My grandparents taught me that older people have a lot of wisdom to share. Their advice offers new perspectives on life, relationships and even success, precisely ____38____ they’ve already experienced and navigated many of the struggles we are facing now. For instance, my grandma always reminded me to be patient and listen to others. Over time, I realized just ____39____ absolutely correct she was. However, with age ____40____ (come) challenges. Tasks become more arduous (费力的). For someone who has been self-sufficient most of their life, this can destroy their confidence. We should ____41____ (remind) of this often. When helping them manage their day, we should ensure that they maintain a sense of independence. Beyond physical challenges many elderly people often face loneliness or isolation, especially after losing friends and family over the years. Spending time with the elderly, ____42____ it’s just sitting down to have a conversation or watching TV together, can make an enormous difference. I remember how much my grandma’s eyes would light up when we’d sit down to play a board game or chat about my school day. Little moments like ____43____ show that you care, and they’re more important than you might think. Technology, too, can be a way to connect with them by helping them connect with others. Whether it’s teaching them how to use smart devices, reach family over video calls, ____44____ access services online, these small actions can make them feel like a part of a world that often seems ____45____ (move) too quickly for them. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节：应用文写作(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，请你就校英语论坛最近发表的热点话题“Our city are being taken over by wild animals”发表看法。 内容包括：1.分析原因； 2.你的观点和建议。 注意：词数80（开头已给出不计入词数） Recently, it seems common that wild animals like foxes and racoons have been spotted in urban areas. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节 读后续写(满分25分) 47. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I’d been waitressing for months, earning extra money for college. “Since it’s not too busy, go and see if Ray wants any more coffee,” my boss said to me as he pointed to an older man sitting in the corner. Ray was holding the cup in his hand as he stared out of the window. He was a re gular lunch customer on Mondays and Fridays. “Can I refill the cup for you, Ray?” I asked. He looked up with a peaceful smile and held his cup out toward me. “You know, I’ve been coming here for several years, and I have to say you have the nicest smile,” he whispered. “Can you sit for minutes... please?” I sat down and he smiled, “Your smile reminds me of my granddaughter, Sharon.” He took out a picture of her from his wall et and handed it to me. “She graduated from college last year.” “What a nice-looking girl!” I said. “Does she live near you?” Ray shook his head as he put the picture back in his wallet. “She moved to California last year. I miss her a lot. She and I used to have lunch together on Monday s and Fridays,” he said. “She now wants me to move out there to be closer to her.” “So, why don’t you?” “I don’t know if I really want to move. I’ve been here all my life,” he answered. I heard my boss calling me. “I guess that’s meant for me,” I said as I stood up. We smiled at each other. “Ray……if my grandfather had been like you, I’d have asked him day and night to move closer to me, too.” I patted his shoulder. “Don’t wait too long. Nice talking with you...” For the next couple of weeks, Ray continued to come on Mondays and Fridays. But on that Monday of Thanksgiving week, he didn’t show up. Then one Wednesday afternoon, walking out to my car after work, I heard a voice call my name from across the parking lot. 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。 It was Ray, hurrying to catch up to me. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Have you made up your mind to move?” I asked. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
