Sleepy with eyes half closed, he saw stars flashing across the heavens. “What is it?” the child whispered. “Shooting stars. They come every year in August.” Decades have passed, but I still remember that night, because I was the fortunate boy whose father believed a new experience was more important than an unbroken night’s sleep. Some parents, like my father, have the gift of opening doors for their children, of leading them into splendid newness. This art of adding dimensions to a child doesn’t necessarily require a great deal of time. It simply involves doing things with our children instead of for them or to them. At a Golf Association tournament, a ten-year-old girl played exceptionally well. “How long have you been interested in golf?” someone asked. “I got it for my ninth birthday,” she said. “You mean your father gave you a set of clubs?” “No,” she said, “he gave me golf.” I have a friend, a psychiatrist, who says there are two types of people: those who think of life as a privilege and those who think of it as a problem. The first type is enthusiastic and energetic. The other type is suspicious and self-centered. And he adds, “Tell me about your childhood and I can tell you which type you are likely to be.” The real purpose, then, of trying to open doors for children is not to divert them or amuse ourselves; it is to build eager and outgoing attitudes towards the demanding and complicated business of living. This, surely, is the most valuable legacy we can pass on to the next generation: not money, not houses, but a capacity for wonder and gratitude, a sense of aliveness and joy. And for those of us who care what becomes of our children,the challenge is always there. None of us meets it fully, but the opportunities come again and again. Many years have passed since that night. And next year, when August comes with its shooting stars, my son will be seven. 4. What do the underlined words “adding dimensions to” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Setting an example for. B. Broadening the horizons of. C. Providing attentive care for. D. Narrowing the possibilities of. 5. What the girl said in Paragraph 2 suggests that ______. A. Children should develop a hobby from an early age B. A set of clubs are not as important as skills in golfing C. Parents’ presence is the key to children’s exploration D. No success can be achieved without one’s passion 6. What will the author’s psychiatrist friend agree with? A. Stability in upbringing builds confidence. B. Parenting styles require professional guidance. C. Childhood experience determines adult happiness. D. One’s personality is related to childhood experiences. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To express his wish to watch the shooting stars. B. To stress the importance of father-son relations. C. To encourage parents to enrich their kids’ inner life. D. To present the challenges of parenting children. 【答案】4. B 5. C 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者曾经因为父亲带他看美丽的流星而久久不能忘怀，作者认为像父亲这样有非凡“天赋”的父母，能够为孩子们打开一扇门，带领他们进入辉煌的新领域。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段第一句话“Some parents like my father have the gift of opening doors for their children, of leading them into splendid newness. (像我父亲这样的一些父母有为孩子敞开大门的天赋，引领他们接触美好的新事物)”可知，有些父母在生活中有一种天赋，就是为孩子们敞开大门，引领他们接触新事物，即开阔他们的视野，由此可推断划线短语adding dimensions to的意思“拓宽视野”，故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“At a Golf Association tournament, a ten-year-old girl played exceptionally well. “How long have you been interested in golf?” someone asked. “I got it for my ninth birthday,” she said. “You mean your father gave you a set of clubs?” “No,” she said, “he gave me golf.”(在高尔夫协会的锦标赛上，一个10岁的女孩打得特别好。“你对高尔夫感兴趣多久了？”有人问。“这是我九岁生日的礼物，”她说。“你是说你父亲给了你一套球杆？”“不，”她说，“他是送给了我高尔夫。”)”可推知，父亲的参与和引导是女儿对高尔夫兴趣的关键，即父母的陪伴是孩子探索世界的关键，故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句话“And he adds, “Tell me about your childhood and I can tell you which type you are likely to be.”(他补充道，“告诉我你的童年，我可以告诉你你可能属于哪种类型。”)”可推知，作者的精神病学家朋友会同意一个人的个性与童年经历有关，故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The real purpose, then, of trying to open doors for children is not to divert them or amuse ourselves; it is to build eager and outgoing attitudes towards the demanding and complicated business of living. This, surely, is the most valuable legacy we can pass on to the next generation: not money, not houses, but a capacity for wonder and gratitude, a sense of aliveness and joy. And for those of us who care what becomes of our children, the challenge is always there. None of us meets it fully, but the opportunities come again and again.(因此，试图为孩子们敞开大门的真正目的，并不是为了让他们消遣或自娱自乐；它是为了建立一种渴望和外向的态度，去面对复杂而苛求的生活。毫无疑问，这是我们可以留给下一代的最宝贵的遗产：不是金钱，不是房子，而是对奇迹和感恩的能力，一种活力和快乐的感觉。对于那些关心孩子未来的我们来说，挑战始终存在。我们没有人能够完全应对它，但机会一次又一次地出现)”可推知，作者写最后一段的目的是鼓励父母丰富孩子的内心世界，故选C项。 C Imagine you are camping at night, and you are sitting inside a tent. You want to read a book, but it is too dark. If you have a flashlight with you inside the tent and you hold your flashlight right up next to the pages of the book, then you are really in business! Brachytherapy (近距离放射疗法), as internal radiation therapy to treat cancer, is a little like this flashlight, because doctors deliver radiation right up close to tumor (肿瘤) cells instead of treating them from farther away. There are several ways healthcare providers can deliver brachytherapy treatments. In one type of brachytherapy, healthcare providers can use a robot called an afterloader that controls where the radioactive source is placed in the patient. This robot can move the source through special tubes into the inside of a patient. When the treatment is over, the robot removes the source from the patient. When the radiation source is not being used for treatment, it sits inside a container inside the robot. That container is made of a special kind of heavy metal so that it blocks radiation. The afterloader can be controlled from outside the treatment room, so the doctor and other members of the healthcare team can be outside of the room while the source is outside of its special container and is being used to treat the patient. This makes delivering radiation safer for the medical team, because they are not exposed to radiation each time they treat a patient. Brachytherapy can be used to treat lots of kinds of cancer. Sometimes patients even get more than one kind of radiation treatment, like when they get treated from the outside-in and then from the inside-out. When a person is going to be treated with brachytherapy, the patient’s doctor will work with a radiation oncologist (肿瘤专家) to make sure the patient is treated safely. By tailoring brachytherapy treatments to individual patients, it can enable doctors to significantly increase the curative effect while reducing side effects to the minimum, enhancing both treatment effectiveness and the quality of life for patients. 8. Why does the author mention the flashlight in paragraph 1? A. To introduce a solution to reading at night. B. To bring up the topic of brachytherapy. C. To show its importance when camping at night. D. To arouse readers’ attention to its use in medical field. 9. What can we know about the afterloader from paragraph 3? A. It can serve as a radioactive source. B. It can block radiation when functioning. C. It must be operated inside the treatment room. D. Doctors can avoid being exposed to radiation by using it. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Personalized brachytherapy treatment will have better outcome. B. Brachytherapy is the most effective method to treat cancer. C. Patients will suffer less when being treated with oncologists. D. Patients can only be treated with one kind of radiation for the sake of health. 11. Which can be the most suitable title for the text? A. Finding the Benefits of Radiation Therapy B. Focusing on What Types of Cancers to Treat C. Exploring the Possibility of Brachytherapy D. Treating Cancer From the Inside Out 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了近距离放射疗法，通过精准内照射治疗癌症，兼顾疗效与安全性。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Brachytherapy (近距离放射疗法), as internal radiation therapy to treat cancer, is a little like this flashlight, because doctors deliver radiation right up close to tumor (肿瘤) cells instead of treating them from farther away. (近距离放射疗法，作为治疗癌症的内部放射疗法，有点像这个手电筒，因为医生把辐射直接送到肿瘤细胞附近，而不是从远处治疗它们。)”可知，第一段将手电筒贴近书本照明类比为“近距离放射疗法”直接作用于肿瘤细胞，引出主题。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The afterloader can be controlled from outside the treatment room, so the doctor and other members of the healthcare team can be outside of the room while the source is outside of its special container and is being used to treat the patient. (加力器可以从治疗室外进行控制，因此，辐射源在其特殊容器外并用于治疗患者时，医生和医疗团队的其他成员可以在治疗室外。)”可知，医生远程操作进行治疗，可以避免暴露在辐射之中。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“By tailoring brachytherapy treatments to individual patients, it can enable doctors to significantly increase the curative effect while reducing side effects to the minimum, enhancing both treatment effectiveness and the quality of life for patients. (通过针对个别患者量身定制近距离治疗，可以使医生在显著提高疗效的同时将副作用降到最低，从而提高治疗效果和患者的生活质量。)”可知，这种治疗方法可以为患者制定个性化治疗方案，从而提升疗效并减少副作用。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Brachytherapy (近距离放射疗法), as internal radiation therapy to treat cancer, is a little like this flashlight, because doctors deliver radiation right up close to tumor (肿瘤) cells instead of treating them from farther away. (近距离放射疗法，作为治疗癌症的内部放射疗法，有点像这个手电筒，因为医生把辐射直接送到肿瘤细胞附近，而不是从远处治疗它们。)”可知，文章在首段便提出讨论主题，即近距离放射疗法，接着便开始介绍这种医疗手法如何应用及效果如何。由此可知，全文围绕“内部放射治疗”展开，标题突出其“由内而外”的治疗特性。选项D“Treating Cancer From the Inside Out (从内到外治疗癌症)”符合这种疗法的特点，作为标题比较合理。故选D。 D When we think about lives filled with meaning, we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life. But how about us ordinary people, struggling in a typical existence? There is an important element to consider. Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciation) by Joshua Hicks, a psychological professor at Texas A & M University. Recently, he and his research team set out to figure out whether EA was related to a person’s sense of meaning in a series of studies that involved more than 3,000 participants. At an initial test, researchers had participants rate their agreement of different coping strategies to relieve their stress. They found people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful. Researchers then conducted a series of experiments, in which they gave participants specific tasks and, once more, asked them to report how strongly they identified with statements linked to purpose, etc. In one case, participants who watched an awe-inspiring video reported having a greater sense of EA and meaning in life, compared with those watched more neutral videos. After reflecting on the results collected from the participants, researchers confirmed their original theory. But applying that insight can be difficult. Our modern, fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with targets and goals. We are on the go, and we attempt to maximize output both at work and at leisure. This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. Yet life happens in the present moment. We should slow down, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life. 12. Why are the butterfly and the scenery on a hill mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To deliver moments of beauty. B. To explain personal experiences. C. To present the concept of EA. D. To show the necessity of protecting nature. 13. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By studying previous research data. B. By analyzing the response from the participants. C. By shooting videos starring the participants. D. By designing different strategies to reduce stress. 14. Who tends to find life more meaningful according to the text? A. A person who always gets her life well-organized. B. A person who leads a fast-paced life. C. A person who often hears motivating speeches. D. A person who always expects future results. 15. What life philosophy does the author show in the last paragraph? A. No pains, no gains. B. Live your life one day at a time. C. Being on sea, sail; being on land, settle. D. Those who believe in their ability can do anything. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是日常生活中细微之美对人们生活意义感的影响，探讨如何通过体验欣赏（EA）增强生活的充实感。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciation) by Joshua Hicks, a psychological professor at Texas A&M University.”“Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. This element is defined as EA(experiential appreciation)by Joshua Hicks, a psychological professor at Texas A & M University. (想想你在漫长的冬天后停下来欣赏的第一只蝴蝶，或者想象一下新徒步旅行后山顶的风景。有时，存在会给我们带来美丽的瞬间。当人们乐于欣赏这些经历时，这些时刻可能会增强他们对生活的看法。德克萨斯A&M大学心理学教授Joshua Hicks将这一元素定义为EA（体验欣赏）。)”可知，文章第二段提到蝴蝶和山上风景的例子是为了引入一个概念——体验性欣赏。故选C项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“At an initial test, researchers had participants rate their agreement of different coping strategies to relieve their stress. (在最初的测试中，研究人员让参与者对缓解压力的不同应对策略的一致性进行评分。)”和第四段中“Researchers then conducted a series of experiments, in which they gave participants specific tasks and, once more, asked them to report how strongly they identified with statements linked to purpose, etc. (研究人员随后进行了一系列实验，在这些实验中，他们给参与者分配了具体的任务，并再次要求他们报告他们对与目的相关的陈述的认同程度等。)”以及第四段中“After reflecting on the results collected from the participants, researchers confirmed their original theory. (研究人员随后进行了一系列实验，在这些实验中，他们给参与者分配了具体的任务，并再次要求他们报告他们对与目的相关的陈述的认同程度等。)”可知，研究者通过分析参与者的不同反应来进行研究。故选B项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段“In one case, participants who watched an awe-inspiring video reported having a greater sense of EA and meaning in life, compared with those watched more neutral videos. (在一个案例中，与观看更中性视频的参与者相比，观看令人敬畏的视频的参与者报告说，他们对EA和生活意义有更大的感觉。)”可知，经常听鼓舞人心的演讲的人更能找到生活的意义。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. Yet life happens in the present moment. We should slow down, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life. (这种对未来结果的关注很容易让人错过现在正在发生的事情。然而，生活发生在当下。我们应该放慢脚步，让生活给我们惊喜，拥抱日常生活中的意义。)”可知，作者在最后一段告诉我们，应该生活在当下。故选B项。 第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。 “New Year, New You”. It’s January 1 again. It’s time to make New Year’s Resolutions (决心) again. On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year. ___16___ The truth is that many people fail to accomplish them and keep making new ones. It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. ___17___ In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”. In fact, the appeal of a “New You” doesn’t have to do with concrete changes. ___18___ With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on. So the very concept of “New Year, New You” collapses after careful reflection. Just like we could never drag ourselves out of the mud by pulling on our own hair, we could never win the struggle to become a totally different kind of person. Instead of “becoming unrecognizable”, the New Year should be a time to commit to “radical doability”. This means embracing (拥抱) the pleasure of an easily reachable goal. If you find waking up at 5 a. m. difficult, make 7 a. m. your initial goal and make progress every day. ___19___ If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language. So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. ___20___ Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now. A. Rather, we fail to live up to our expectations. B. Accept who we really are and start from there. C. But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes. D. This also means consciously setting up a major goal. E. Why are we going through such．contradictory feelings? F. It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time. G. On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life. 【答案】16. E 17. C 18. G 19. F 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，讨论了新年决心背后的动机及其实际执行情况。文章首先介绍了新年决心的双重性质并进一步探讨了“新你”这一概念的吸引力并不在于具体的改变，而更多地与获得一种控制生活的感受有关。最终，文章提出与其试图彻底改变自己，不如在新的一年里致力于“根本可行性”，即从小的、可轻松达成的目标开始做起，从而逐步实现个人成长和改善。 【16题详解】 根据上文“On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year.(一方面，新年决心反映了我们希望实现个人转变的愿望。另一方面，它们也显示了我们对过去一年的遗憾)”可知新年决心具有双重性，可以推理出作者在下文要提出一个关于新年决心为何会带来矛盾情感的问题，与E项“Why are we going through such contradictory feelings?(为什么我们会经历如此矛盾的情感？)”表达的含义一致。故选E项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. (这并不是因为缺乏自律)”以及下文“In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”(换句话说，我们寻求“变得认不出”)”可知，造成这种现象的原因并非我们不够自律，而是我们追求“变得认不出”，可以推理出空白处要表达的是我们追求的是彻底改变，与C项“But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes.(但正是试图做出彻底改变)”表达的含义一致。故选C项。 【18题详解】 根据下文“With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on. (随着新年的开始，我们终于希望在健康、财务、个性等方面掌握主动权)”可知我们在新年的时候希望在健康、财务、个性等方面掌握主动权，也就是说我们追求的是获得掌控生活的感受，与G项“On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life. (相反，这是关于获得掌控生活的感受)”表达的含义一致。故选G项。 【19题详解】 根据下文“If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language. (如果2025年是你的健身年，那么现在可能不是开始整理家居或学习新语言的时候)”可知，如果你的目标是健身，就不要开始整理家居或学习新语言，可以推理出此处要表达的是专注于有限数量的目标，与F项“It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time. (这也意味着一次专注于有限数量的目标)”表达的含义一致。故选F项。 【20题详解】 根据上文“So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. (所以让2025年成为我们终于停止试图成为别人的一年)”以及下文“Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now. (让我们开始迈出小步：给朋友发一条信息或做一次锻炼。不多，但至少一次。不是以后，而是现在。)”可知，我们要停止试图成为别人，并从现在开始付出行动，可以推理出此处要表达的是接受真实的自己并从现在开始行动，与B项“Accept who we really are and start from there. (接受我们真实的自己，并从那里开始)”表达的含义一致。故选B项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The greatest sports moments often have a wonderful flow state behind the victories or performances.

What 38. features 39. rarely 40. unpredictable 41. demonstrated 42. about 43. which 44. a 45. standing 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了蔡国强的展览融合艺术与科学，以火药艺术展示艺术与科学的革命性结合。 【36题详解】 考查名词。句意：这种结合是蔡国强的“物质之旅”展览的核心，该展览目前正在南加州大学太平洋亚洲博物馆展出。空处需要名词在句中作主语。combine的名词形式为combination“结合”，不可数名词。故填combination。 【37题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：使这个展览脱颖而出的是其超越传统画廊形式的展览格式，将艺术与化学、物理和人工智能相结合，展示艺术家蔡国强的开创性作品。空处引导主语从句。主语从句中缺少主语，表示“……的事情”，所以用连接代词what引导该从句。故填What 【38题详解】 考查时态。句意：“物质之旅”展出了多件火药测试作品，突显了在展览中罕见见到的东西：科学作为理解艺术技巧的工具，并展示了探索火药分子行为的图像。空处和highlights以及and后面的presents作并列谓语，所以空处也用第三人称单数形式。故填features。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：“物质之旅”展出了多件火药测试作品，突显了在展览中罕见见到的东西：科学作为理解艺术技巧的工具，并展示了探索火药分子行为的图像。空处需要副词修饰后面的动词seen，在句中作状语。故填rarely。 【40题详解】 考查形容词。句意：无论火药画作计划得多么精确，结果仍然是不可预测的。空处需要形容词作表语。根据“No matter how precisely a gunpowder drawing is planned”可知，火药画作是不可预测的，所以空处需要pradictable的反义词unpredictable“不可预测的”，符合语境。故填unpredictable。 【41题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在鲜艳的色彩褪去后，作品中表现出的冷静和自然力量给了我灵感。空处为非谓语动词作定语。该动词和修饰的名词“the calmness and the natural strengththe”之间为被动关系，所以用过去分词定语。故填demonstrated。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意：火药的变化引起了不可控制性和不可预测性，这正是使用火药创作如此迷人的原因。bring about“引起”，符合语境。故填about。 【43题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：火药的变化带来了不可控制性和不可预测性，这正是使用火药创作如此迷人的原因。空处引导非限定性定语从句，修饰前面的整个句子，且在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which引导该从句。故填which。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：这次展览将作为一个显著的标志，展示艺术界如何在新的AI驱动时代将虚拟与现实混合，同时也在这些不稳定时期发出强烈的声音和果断的行动。空处泛指“一个显著的标志”，且空后为辅音音素开始的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这次展览将作为一个显著的标志，展示艺术界如何在新的AI驱动时代将虚拟与现实混合，同时也在这些不稳定时期发出强烈的声音和果断的行动。空处需要非谓语动词作状语，该动词和其逻辑主语The exhibition之间为主动关系，所用现在分词作状语。故填standing。 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. 假设你是李华，你校艺术节即将举办主题为“最美瞬间”的摄影展，捕捉“热爱生活、积极向上、全面发展”等正能量的精彩瞬间。现邀请同学们提供自己拍摄的一张照片参展，并撰写摄影作品的介绍供参观者阅读。请你为你参展的摄影作品写一篇短文作为介绍，内容包括： 1. 对该照片的简要描述; 2. 你选择该照片参展的理由。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右; 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。 ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: The photo illustrates a sunrise over a misty mountain peak.

The classroom was filled with a sense of anticipation as Mrs. Stretch announced that it was time for the much-loved game, Around the World. Around the World was Eddie’s absolute favorite classroom game. He loved racing against a classmate to solve a math problem and calling out the answer. Eddie won against some kids and lost against others. Eddie’s best friend Michael never lost a math challenge. He was the champion of Around the World in the class and could even beat a fourth grader. Under Michael’s influence, the entire class was motivated to study harder and developed a newfound love for math. “Talia, you start,” said Mrs. Stretch. Talia was new to the class. Last week, she had watched how the game was played, but this would be her first time playing. Talia jumped up and went over to Luka’s desk. Luka stood up too. “Twelve times two,” said Mrs. Stretch. There was a pause as Talia and Luka raced to work out the multiplication (乘法) problem in their head. “Twenty-four!” Talia called out first. “Right,” said Mrs. Stretch. Talia was the winner so she moved on to challenge the next student. Luka sat down. Surprisingly, it wasn’t long before Talia had beat several classmates. Then Talia was in front of Eddie’s desk. “Six times seven?” asked Mrs. Stretch. “Forty-two!” Talia shouted, a second before Eddie could. Eddie was disappointed he had lost to Talia, but he was happy he also knew the right answer. It was thrilling to watch the game going on. Talia seemed to be unstoppable. Finally. Talia got to Michael. He was the last one she’d have 1o beat to be today’s champion. At that time, the whole classroom was charged with an electric intensity as everyone held their breath. “Eight times twelve.” Mrs. Stretch said, her voice cutting through the thick silence. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右。 “Ninety-six!” the answer swiftly escaped Talia’s lips. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “No, Michael We didn’t cheer against you.” Eddie said. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 “Ninety-six!” the answer swiftly escaped Talia’s lips. Michael stood there, a look of shock on his face. For a moment, the classroom was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop. Then, a huge cheer erupted from the students. Talia had beaten the undefeated champion! Michael forced a smile, but it was clear he was disappointed. After class, he sat alone at his desk, lost in thought. Eddie noticed and decided to talk to him. “No, Michael. We didn’t cheer against you.” Eddie said. “We were just excited for Talia. She’s new, and she worked really hard. You are still the best in our hearts. You inspired us to love math. And now, Talia has shown us that there’s always someone amazing out there. Let’s be happy for her and keep improving ourselves.” Michael looked up at Eddie, and his frown slowly turned into a smile. “You’re right,” he said. “I should be proud of Talia. And I will work even harder to be better.” From that day on, the class became even more enthusiastic about math, with everyone inspired by each other’s progress. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了埃迪、迈克尔和塔莉亚等同学参与游戏的故事。埃迪最喜欢这个游戏，他的好友迈克尔是班级里的游戏冠军，在他的影响下全班热爱数学。新同学塔莉亚首次参与游戏，接连战胜多名同学，最后与迈克尔对决。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句 “‘九十六！’答案从塔莉亚的口中脱口而出。” 可知，第一段可描写塔莉亚获胜后迈克尔的反应，同学们的后续表现，以及迈克尔下课后的状态。 ②由第二段首句“‘不，迈克尔，我们不是在为反对你而欢呼。’埃迪说。”可知，第二段可描写埃迪对迈克尔的安慰，迈克尔的转变，以及这件事对班级数学学习氛围的积极影响。 2.续写线索：塔莉亚获胜——迈克尔失落——同学们的欢呼——埃迪安慰——迈克尔转变——班级学习氛围更浓 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①强颜欢笑：force a smile/manage a weak smile/put on a false smile ②为……感到骄傲：be proud of/take pride in ③不断提高：keep improving/continue to progress/constantly enhance oneself 情绪类 ①失望的：disappointed/despondent ②热情的：enthusiastic/passionate/zealous 【点睛】[高分句型1] For a moment, the classroom was so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.

B One summer night, a boy felt himself lifted from bed by his father. Sleepy with eyes half closed, he saw stars flashing across the heavens. “What is it?” the child whispered. “Shooting stars. They come every year in August.” Decades have passed, but I still remember that night, because I was the fortunate boy whose father believed a new experience was more important than an unbroken night’s sleep. Some parents, like my father, have the gift of opening doors for their children, of leading them into splendid newness. This art of adding dimensions to a child doesn’t necessarily require a great deal of time. It simply involves doing things with our children instead of for them or to them. At a Golf Association tournament, a ten-year-old girl played exceptionally well. “How long have you been interested in golf?” someone asked. “I got it for my ninth birthday,” she said. “You mean your father gave you a set of clubs?” “No,” she said, “he gave me golf.” I have a friend, a psychiatrist, who says there are two types of people: those who think of life as a privilege and those who think of it as a problem. The first type is enthusiastic and energetic. The other type is suspicious and self-centered. And he adds, “Tell me about your childhood and I can tell you which type you are likely to be.” The real purpose, then, of trying to open doors for children is not to divert them or amuse ourselves; it is to build eager and outgoing attitudes towards the demanding and complicated business of living. This, surely, is the most valuable legacy we can pass on to the next generation: not money, not houses, but a capacity for wonder and gratitude, a sense of aliveness and joy. And for those of us who care what becomes of our children,the challenge is always there. None of us meets it fully, but the opportunities come again and again. Many years have passed since that night. And next year, when August comes with its shooting stars, my son will be seven. 4. What do the underlined words “adding dimensions to” in Paragraph 2 mean? A. Setting an example for. B. Broadening the horizons of. C. Providing attentive care for. D. Narrowing the possibilities of. 5. What the girl said in Paragraph 2 suggests that ______. A. Children should develop a hobby from an early age B. A set of clubs are not as important as skills in golfing C. Parents’ presence is the key to children’s exploration D. No success can be achieved without one’s passion 6. What will the author’s psychiatrist friend agree with? A. Stability in upbringing builds confidence. B. Parenting styles require professional guidance. C. Childhood experience determines adult happiness. D. One’s personality is related to childhood experiences. 7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the last paragraph? A. To express his wish to watch the shooting stars. B. To stress the importance of father-son relations. C. To encourage parents to enrich their kids’ inner life. D. To present the challenges of parenting children. C Imagine you are camping at night, and you are sitting inside a tent. You want to read a book, but it is too dark. If you have a flashlight with you inside the tent and you hold your flashlight right up next to the pages of the book, then you are really in business! Brachytherapy (近距离放射疗法), as internal radiation therapy to treat cancer, is a little like this flashlight, because doctors deliver radiation right up close to tumor (肿瘤) cells instead of treating them from farther away. There are several ways healthcare providers can deliver brachytherapy treatments. In one type of brachytherapy, healthcare providers can use a robot called an afterloader that controls where the radioactive source is placed in the patient. This robot can move the source through special tubes into the inside of a patient. When the treatment is over, the robot removes the source from the patient. When the radiation source is not being used for treatment, it sits inside a container inside the robot. That container is made of a special kind of heavy metal so that it blocks radiation. The afterloader can be controlled from outside the treatment room, so the doctor and other members of the healthcare team can be outside of the room while the source is outside of its special container and is being used to treat the patient. This makes delivering radiation safer for the medical team, because they are not exposed to radiation each time they treat a patient. Brachytherapy can be used to treat lots of kinds of cancer. Sometimes patients even get more than one kind of radiation treatment, like when they get treated from the outside-in and then from the inside-out. When a person is going to be treated with brachytherapy, the patient’s doctor will work with a radiation oncologist (肿瘤专家) to make sure the patient is treated safely. By tailoring brachytherapy treatments to individual patients, it can enable doctors to significantly increase the curative effect while reducing side effects to the minimum, enhancing both treatment effectiveness and the quality of life for patients. 8. Why does the author mention the flashlight in paragraph 1? A. To introduce a solution to reading at night. B. To bring up the topic of brachytherapy. C. To show its importance when camping at night. D. To arouse readers’ attention to its use in medical field. 9. What can we know about the afterloader from paragraph 3? A. It can serve as a radioactive source. B. It can block radiation when functioning. C. It must be operated inside the treatment room. D. Doctors can avoid being exposed to radiation by using it. 10. What can be inferred from the text? A. Personalized brachytherapy treatment will have better outcome. B. Brachytherapy is the most effective method to treat cancer. C. Patients will suffer less when being treated with oncologists. D. Patients can only be treated with one kind of radiation for the sake of health. 11. Which can be the most suitable title for the text? A. Finding the Benefits of Radiation Therapy B. Focusing on What Types of Cancers to Treat C. Exploring the Possibility of Brachytherapy D. Treating Cancer From the Inside Out D When we think about lives filled with meaning, we often focus on people whose grand contributions benefited humanity. Abraham Lincoln, Martin Luther King and Nelson Mandela surely felt they had a worthwhile life. But how about us ordinary people, struggling in a typical existence? There is an important element to consider. Think about the first butterfly you stop to admire after a long winter or imagine the scenery at the top of a hill after a fresh hike. Sometimes existence delivers us small moments of beauty. When people are open to appreciating such experiences, these moments may enhance how they view their life. This element is defined as EA (experiential appreciation) by Joshua Hicks, a psychological professor at Texas A & M University. Recently, he and his research team set out to figure out whether EA was related to a person’s sense of meaning in a series of studies that involved more than 3,000 participants. At an initial test, researchers had participants rate their agreement of different coping strategies to relieve their stress. They found people who managed stress by focusing on their appreciation for life’s beauty also reported experiencing life as highly meaningful. Researchers then conducted a series of experiments, in which they gave participants specific tasks and, once more, asked them to report how strongly they identified with statements linked to purpose, etc. In one case, participants who watched an awe-inspiring video reported having a greater sense of EA and meaning in life, compared with those watched more neutral videos. After reflecting on the results collected from the participants, researchers confirmed their original theory. But applying that insight can be difficult. Our modern, fast-paced lifestyles fill the day with targets and goals. We are on the go, and we attempt to maximize output both at work and at leisure. This focus on future outcomes makes it all too easy to miss what is happening right now. Yet life happens in the present moment. We should slow down, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday life. 12. Why are the butterfly and the scenery on a hill mentioned in paragraph 2? A. To deliver moments of beauty. B. To explain personal experiences. C. To present the concept of EA. D. To show the necessity of protecting nature. 13. How did the researchers conduct the study? A. By studying previous research data. B. By analyzing the response from the participants. C. By shooting videos starring the participants. D. By designing different strategies to reduce stress. 14. Who tends to find life more meaningful according to the text? A. A person who always gets her life well-organized. B. A person who leads a fast-paced life. C. A person who often hears motivating speeches. D. A person who always expects future results. 15. What life philosophy does the author show in the last paragraph? A. No pains, no gains. B. Live your life one day at a time. C. Being on sea, sail; being on land, settle. D. Those who believe in their ability can do anything. 第二节（共5小题：每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。 “New Year, New You”. It’s January 1 again. It’s time to make New Year’s Resolutions (决心) again. On the one hand, the New Year’s resolutions reflect our hope to make a personal transformation. On the other hand, they show our regret of the past year. ___16___ The truth is that many people fail to accomplish them and keep making new ones. It is not because of a lack of self-discipline. ___17___ In other words, we seek to “become unrecognizable”. In fact, the appeal of a “New You” doesn’t have to do with concrete changes. ___18___ With a new year beginning, we want to finally feel that we’re in the driver’s seat when it comes to our health, finances, personality and so on. So the very concept of “New Year, New You” collapses after careful reflection. Just like we could never drag ourselves out of the mud by pulling on our own hair, we could never win the struggle to become a totally different kind of person. Instead of “becoming unrecognizable”, the New Year should be a time to commit to “radical doability”. This means embracing (拥抱) the pleasure of an easily reachable goal. If you find waking up at 5 a. m. difficult, make 7 a. m. your initial goal and make progress every day. ___19___ If 2025 is your year for getting fit, it probably isn’t also the time to start tidying your home or learning a new language. So let 2025 be the year when we finally stop trying to become someone else. ___20___ Let’s start doing things in baby steps: one message to a friend or one workout. Not many, but at least one. Not later, but right now. A. Rather, we fail to live up to our expectations. B. Accept who we really are and start from there. C. But it’s the very attempt to make complete changes. D. This also means consciously setting up a major goal. E. Why are we going through such．contradictory feelings? F. It also means focusing on a limited number of goals at a time. G. On the contrary, it’s about obtaining a sense of controlling our life. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 The greatest sports moments often have a wonderful flow state behind the victories or performances.

The classroom was filled with a sense of anticipation as Mrs. Stretch announced that it was time for the much-loved game, Around the World. Around the World was Eddie’s absolute favorite classroom game. He loved racing against a classmate to solve a math problem and calling out the answer. Eddie won against some kids and lost against others. Eddie’s best friend Michael never lost a math challenge. He was the champion of Around the World in the class and could even beat a fourth grader. Under Michael’s influence, the entire class was motivated to study harder and developed a newfound love for math. “Talia, you start,” said Mrs. Stretch. Talia was new to the class. Last week, she had watched how the game was played, but this would be her first time playing. Talia jumped up and went over to Luka’s desk. Luka stood up too. “Twelve times two,” said Mrs. Stretch. There was a pause as Talia and Luka raced to work out the multiplication (乘法) problem in their head. “Twenty-four!” Talia called out first. “Right,” said Mrs. Stretch. Talia was the winner so she moved on to challenge the next student. Luka sat down. Surprisingly, it wasn’t long before Talia had beat several classmates. Then Talia was in front of Eddie’s desk. “Six times seven?” asked Mrs. Stretch. “Forty-two!” Talia shouted, a second before Eddie could. Eddie was disappointed he had lost to Talia, but he was happy he also knew the right answer. It was thrilling to watch the game going on. Talia seemed to be unstoppable. Finally. Talia got to Michael. He was the last one she’d have 1o beat to be today’s champion. At that time, the whole classroom was charged with an electric intensity as everyone held their breath. “Eight times twelve.” Mrs. Stretch said, her voice cutting through the thick silence. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右。 “Ninety-six!” the answer swiftly escaped Talia’s lips. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “No, Michael We didn’t cheer against you.” Eddie said. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
