第一节
The one-day school tour sounds wonderful. I would like to recommend Hegang National Mine
Park as the destination.
As one of China’s first national mine parks, Hegang National Mine Park offers a unique
opportunity to explore the rich history of coal mining and witness the transformation of industrial
sites into ecological and cultural landmarks. The park features preserved mining equipment,
informative exhibits, and the impressive “Eye of the Earth”— a vast open-pit mine showcasing
geological formations. Such an immersive experience would greatly enhance our understanding of
environmental protection, industrial heritage, and sustainable development.
I sincerely hope my recommendation will be favorably considered, as this visit promises both
educational enrichment and memorable experiences for all participants.
第二节
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty. She knew she could survive without
food for a while, but only a few days without water. She opened the door and stretched out her hand,
only to find she was still about three feet short of the water in the creek. So she got creative once
again: She took her favorite sweater and dipped it into the water, letting the pink fabric soak up the
water before pulling it back and wringing it into her mouth. As she grew weaker, she drifted in and
out of sleep. Still, she clung to the hope that somebody would come to her rescue.
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator. Jeremy was
working on a construction project near the bridge when he noticed something unusual — a flash of
reflected light from below. Curious, he walked to the edge and peered down into the ditch. That’s
when he saw the crumpled vehicle and the word “HELP” across the glass. Jeremy hurried down and
saw the outline of a motionless figure inside. Startled, he immediately contacted emergency services.
Help arrived soon after. Thanks to his alertness — and her extraordinary strength — Ms. Cassell
was finally pulled from the wreckage, still alive after those long, freezing nights.

听力原文
Text 1
W: So, which white paint are we using in the bathroom, light white or dark white? We need to
decide. I’d like to buy light white paint.
M: Honestly? I can’t tell the difference. I didn’t know white came in so many different colors!
(1)
Text 2
M: Would you like some chocolate? I think I’ve eaten enough.
W: No, thanks. Iced fruit juice would be a better choice. It’s so hot that I don’t want to eat anything.
I’ll stick with my cold drinks! (2)
Text 3
W: Nice cup — cute shape!
M: Yes, it’s the last one though. My mom gave me a set of four glasses. I guess I need to be
more careful not to break it when washing it! (3)
W: Ha-ha! You need to change to paper ones!
Text 4
M: I’m going for a run at 6:00 a.m. I’ll set my watch and get back at 8:00 a.m. (4)
W: OK. I’ll drop Florence at school. They will get a trip this afternoon and she’s very excited!
Text 5
M: It is so hot outside. We have been waiting for one hour. How much longer will it take to get
to the movie theater?
W: I have never seen so much traffic at this time of day. (5) After the movie, we’ll grab something
to eat.
M: Okay.
Text 6
W: I can’t stop watching YouTube videos! (6)
M: I know how you feel.
W: I started watching a video about dogs, and now I’ve watched five videos about monkeys,
three ones about cats, and another two videos about people who have built tiny homes. I
just can’t stop! (6)
M: That’s what YouTube does to you. After you watch a video, there are always suggestions for
other videos you might enjoy.
W: Okay, this is the last video I’m going to watch. Then I’m going to the gym. (7)
Text 7
W: I’m really enjoying walking in the Peak District National Park. I love seeing the ancient rocks.
M: I was just thinking of the same thing. They’re so interesting.
W: It’s hard to imagine how long they’ve been here — maybe thousands and thousands of years.
M: When you think about the changes that the planet has gone through, and then realize that these
rocks were here all that time... Wow!
W: Yes, people first lived here 10,000 years ago. Touching these rocks really feels like touching
history, doesn’t it? It makes me feel quite sad somehow. (9)
M: It must have been a pretty wild place to live.
W: Yes! People raised families here and so on — it’s impossible to imagine now!
Text 8
W: Okay, class… Who remembers what we learned about the recent measures being taken to
protect our natural heritage areas? (11)
M: Umm… Well, new laws restrict development in protected areas and outline stronger
punishments for activities that damage or pollute the environment.
英语答案 第 3 页 共 10 页
W: Right. And why is this important? (11)
M: Because these areas provide homes for many unique creatures and plants.
W: Exactly. For example, China’s newest World Heritage Site, the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along
the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf. Why else?
M: They also have a big role to play in fighting climate change. (11) Mountain glaciers reflect
heat and provide fresh water, and forests absorb large amounts of carbon.
W: Very good. Now, a major problem many natural heritage sites experience is the damage
caused by so many visitors. (12) For example, Jiuzhaigou Valley National Park has experienced
people littering, picking flowers and disturbing endangered animals.
M: My dad says tourism brings wealth to these areas.
W: Well, he’s not wrong. And people should be able to see and enjoy these beautiful sites. However,
we mustn’t risk the long-term health of our planet for short-term benefits.
Text 9
M: Hey, have you ever done any volunteer work before?
W: Yeah. I volunteered at a charity food bank last summer. (13) (14)
M: That’s really cool! What was that experience like?
W: It was a real education, honestly. I had no idea how difficult some people’s lives are! Some of
the people we gave food to were already working two jobs.
M: I’d love to volunteer too, but I don’t have much time to offer.
W: Well, I did three shifts a week, (14) each for about two hours a time. But you can do whatever
works for you.
M: True. I’m not sure what type of work I’d like to do.
W: Well, there are a lot of different options. What about an animal shelter? You’re a big animal fan,
right?
M: I am. But it would probably really upset me to have to work with sick or dying animals every
day.
W: I understand. Well, what about a community center? Or a medical center? My friend Alice is
part of a volunteer programme at the local hospital. (15)
M: Oh, that sounds interesting. What does she do there?
W: I think she does stuff like talking to lonely patients, reading to kids…that sort of thing.
M: That sounds like something I would enjoy. (15) Could you put me in contact with her? (15)
(16)
W: Sure! I’ll give her your number. (16)
Text 10
You’re all here on this trip, because you love the good food in Ireland. (17) Because of
that, we’re pretty sure that we have some welcome news for you. After being canceled for three

详细解析
第二部分 阅读
第一节
A
语篇类型:应用文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:市场上最佳笔记本电脑大盘点。
21. A。 理解具体信息。根据文中对 Lenovo Legion 5I 的描述“It's a powerful and quiet
performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen”以及对 Microsoft Surface Laptop 7
的描述“Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers
performance and battery life”可知,两款笔记本电脑都强调了电池续航能力强,A 选
项正确。Lenovo Legion 5I 售价$3,499,不属于预算友好型,B 选项错误;Microsoft
Surface Laptop 7 未提及游戏性能,C 选项错误;只有 Lenovo Legion 5I 提到了安
静运行,D 选项错误。
22. C。 推理判断。文中提到“Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook
that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals”,说明 Asus Zenbook
S 13 OLED 非常适合经常出行的专业人士,且价格为$2,099,在$3,000 预算以下。
23. D。 文章出处。文章主要介绍了几款市场上最好的笔记本电脑,包括它们的特点、性能、
价格等信息,属于科技产品的介绍和评测,很有可能出现在科技杂志上,D 选项正
确。用户指南通常是针对某一产品的使用说明,A 选项错误;研究论文一般是关于
某个研究课题的学术性文章,B 选项错误;服务手册主要是关于产品售后服务等方
面的内容,C 选项错误。
B
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:作者回忆去附近一家园艺中心的经历,并分析园艺中心的没落原因,提倡脱离消
费主义,回归自然园艺。
24. B。理解具体信息。根据文章第一段“this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house
cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over
milky coffees and slices of cake”,这家园艺中心是一个中老年人社交的场所,目前顾
客很多,并没有提到稀有植物、或员工不足的问题。
25. C。词义猜测。根据文章第二段“There’s something about an average garden centre that I find
off-putting”结合前文描述,作者提到自己穿过琳琅满目的家居用品、玩具、化学品
和电动工具区才找到植物区,整体体验令人失望和不适。另外,在接下来的话语中,
作者也提到了自己真正的偏好。“off-putting”在这里应理解为“令人不快的”或“令
人失望的”,而非有吸引力、信息丰富或过时。
26. D。推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people
are interested in plants”以及后文提到“ they would be looking for nature-centred
approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants”可知,Gen Z更倾
向于选择以自然为中心的园艺方式,体现出他们对环保与可持续发展的关注。
27. D。推理判断。根据文章最后一段“Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into
multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences…”可以得
知,作者倾向于亲自参与园艺工作,而非依赖于商店购买成品植物。通过这种实际
参与,作者能够与植物建立深厚的联系,体验园艺的真正意义。
C
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意: 科学家研制出可自然分解的机器人手臂。
28.B。推理判断。文中第一段提到典型机器人是坚固耐用的金属机器,而这种特性导致大量
难以降解的电子垃圾威胁地球,随后提出“如果机器人能像生命一样自然分解消失会
英语答案 第 5 页 共 10 页
怎样”,由此可知提及典型机器人形象是为了凸显机器人需要变革,向可自然分解的
方向改变。
29.A。理解具体信息。第三段先介绍用棉浆制成的植物纤维薄层,添加软化剂增加柔韧性并
干燥增强强度,还说明了用猪肉中的导电材料制作传感器。因此,本段谈到了制作机
器人手臂和手持控制器所选用的材料。
30.C。理解具体信息。Hartmann 说“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside
in nature,”“we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that
are biodegradable”,指出如果想让机器人在自然中可持续,需要让电子元件、电源甚
至电池都可生物降解,即制作可生物降解的电子部件是未来面临的挑战。
31.A。主旨大意。文章主要介绍了科学家制作出由猪肉蛋白和植物纤维制成、能够自然分解
的机器人手臂和手持控制器,并探讨了此类机器人的应用前景及面临的挑战,文章重
点是机器人可分解的特性,A 选项“这款机器人模仿生命——通过分解”准确概括了
文章核心内容,作为标题最合适;B 选项只提到机器人手臂的强度,片面;C 选项
“解决电源问题”并非文章重点。
D
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:美国医疗美容中心数量激增的原因,带来的问题及行业的未来发展。
32.D。推理判断。文中提到“Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform
basic medical procedures.”以及“With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can
get started in a month or two”,说明进入该行业的门槛较低,只要有执行基本医疗程
序的执照,花费几千美元并经过一些培训,一两个月就能入行,这使得美国的医疗美
容中心大量涌现,D 选项“进入该行业的要求宽松”正确。
33.B。理解具体信息。根据 Friedman 所说“It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled
treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set
a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s
trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid”,可
知他认为该行业应优先排除不合格的从业者,并为每个从业者设定教育基线,即设定
明确的专业标准。
34.B。词义猜测。文中提到“The med-spa look has become so recognizable—the overfilled lips,
the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known
in some circles as ‘Mar-a-Lago face’”,从前面描述的“过度填充的嘴唇、玻璃般光滑
的额头”以及多种程序的组合可知“Mar-a-Lago face”指的是过度修饰的外观,B 选
项正确。
35.A。观点态度。根据最后一段“But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than
an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and
technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of
addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in”,作者认为在这个行业中,
趋势的变化只是推出新服务的机会,医疗美容中心已经开始推出新技术以提供更好的
效果,并且解决美容不满意的业务永远不会差,由此可见作者对医疗美容行业的未来
持乐观态度。
第二节
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自我
文章大意:无聊可能带来积极影响。
36. A。前文提到作者告诉儿子不要玩电子游戏,儿子生气地走来走去还自言自语。结合语
境,儿子此时因不能玩游戏感到无聊,所以会抱怨 “This is so boring”(这太无聊
了),A 选项符合儿子当时的情绪和情境,且能引入主题 boredom。
37. D。后文提到“they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom”(他们认识到创
英语答案 第 6 页 共 10 页
造力和无聊之间的明确联系),D 选项“Many musicians even welcome boring
experiences”(许多音乐家甚至欢迎无聊的经历),其中 “many musicians” 对应后
文的“they”,说明音乐家这类人能认识到无聊和创造力的关系,符合上下文逻辑。
38. F。前文说“Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing”(无
聊告诉我们,我们对正在做的事情不满意),后文又说 “It is when we stop focusing
the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself”
(当我们不再专注于某件事,让思维漫游或做白日梦时,方向可能就会出现)。F 选
项 “But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way”(但是,实际上,
我们不必急于以任何方式结束它),起到承上启下的作用,说明虽然无聊表示我们对
当下不满,但不必急于消除无聊,因为它可能带来新方向。
39. E。后文提到“And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek
out therapy”(当人们在生活中陷入绝境时,他们可能会寻求治疗),E 选项 “In some
cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness”(在某些情况下,无聊表现为陷入困境的
状态),“stuckness” 与后文“stuck at a dead end”相呼应,说明无聊有时会以陷入
困境的形式出现,符合上下文逻辑。
40. G。前文举例“One gave up a well - paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own
fitness company”(一个人放弃了高薪但令人沮丧的金融职业,创办了自己的健身公
司),G 选项“Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse”(另
一个人选择结束她的旅行写作生涯,接受培训成为一名护士),“Another”与前文
“One” 对应,继续举例说明病人通过面对无聊在生活方式上做出巨大改变。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
语篇类型:记叙文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:16 岁成绩不佳且生活迷茫的学生 Jim Marquardt 给体育偶像 Mike Liut 写信寻
求指导,收到对方两页手写回信,这封信激励了他,此后四十年间他成家立业、投身慈善,
以传递善意的方式将这份温暖延续。
41. B。考查动词短语搭配。作者想给体育偶像写信,此处需要表达他全身心投入创作信件内
容。“pour one’s heart into sth.” 是固定搭配,意为 “将心血倾注于某事”,契合他
认真写信的状态,也与后文找老师修改信件形成逻辑关联。
42. C。考查形容词。从后文“he later took it to his English teacher for help”可知,Jim 作为
一名贫困学生,希望信件毫无瑕疵,因此找老师帮忙修改。“perfect” 表示 “完美
的”,符合他想让信件达到理想状态的心理;“brief” 意为 “简短的”,“rare”
表示 “罕见的” ,“objective”表示“客观的”,均与他找老师修改以完善信件的
行为不符。
43. D。考查形容词。前文提到 Jim 成绩较差,却突然主动找老师修改信件,这种行为体现
出他的积极性发生了变化。“motivated” 意为 “有积极性的;有动力的”,能够准
确描述他因写信而产生的主动性;“annoyed” 表示 “恼怒的”,“sensitive” 意为
“敏感的”,“confident” 表示 “自信的”,均不符合语境。
44. B。考查动词。Jim 给偶像写信,自然期待对方能够有所回应。“respond”表示 “回应;
回复”,符合他写信后希望得到反馈的心理;“repay”意为 “偿还”,“bother” 表
示 “打扰”,“intervene”表示 “干预”, 均不符合语境。
45. D。考查形容词。根据后文“Mike might write back”可知,Jim 内心有一部分是抱有希望
的,认为偶像可能会回信。“hopeful”准确描述了他对收到回信的积极预期;“gentle”
表示“温和的”,“generous”意为“慷慨的”,“lucky”表示“幸运的”,都不能
体现他对偶像回信的期待心理。
46. C。考查名词。从后文“open it”以及“a two - page handwritten letter”可知,他看到的是
一个装有信件的物品。“envelope” 表示 “信封”,是信件的常见载体,符合打开
英语答案 第 7 页 共 10 页
后取出信件的描述;“label”意为 “标签”,“poster” 表示 “海报”,“postcard”
意为“明信片”,都不符合信件被封装在其中的情景。
47. B。考查形容词。收到偶像的回信, Jim 应该是感到震惊的。“stunned”意为“震惊的;
目瞪口呆的”,能够体现他意外收到回信时的强烈情绪;“greedy”表示“贪婪的”,
“unaware”意为“未察觉的”,“relaxed” 表示 “放松的”, 均不符合语境。
48. A。考查动词短语。此处描述他从信封中取出信件的动作,“pull out” 表示 “抽出;取
出”,符合从信封中拿出信件的行为逻辑;“handed out”意为“分发”,“sent out”
表示“分发”,“threw out”意为“扔掉”,均与从信封中取出信件的动作不符。
49. A。考查名词。根据后文“about playing hockey and personal words of advice”可知,Liut
在信中提供了关于打曲棍球的相关内容。“tips” 表示 “建议;提示”,与 “advice”
语义相近,符合信件中给予指导的语境;“terms” 意为 “条款”,“facilities”表
示“设施”,“opportunities”意为“机会”,都不符合信件中提供建议的内容。
50. C。考查动词。结合语境,Liut 在信中鼓励 Jim,强调自我满足的重要性。“satisfy” 表
示 “使满意;满足”,“The only person you have to satisfy is yourself” 表达了 “唯
一需要满足的人是你自己”,符合激励的语义;“blame” 意为 “责备”,“forgive”
表示 “原谅”,“measure”意为“衡量”,都与句子表达的自我成长与满足的逻辑
不符。
51. A。考查名词。根据后文“he was a lost soul”可知,当时 Jim 的生活处于混乱和迷茫的
状态。“chaos”表示“混乱;无序”,能够准确描述他内心的迷茫与生活的无序;
“memories”意为“回忆”,“adventures”表示“冒险”,“promise”意为“承诺”,
都与他 “迷失自我”的状态不匹配。
52. B。考查动词。此处将 Liut 的回信对 Jim 的影响比喻为给电池充电,象征着重新赋予他
动力。“charging”表示“充电”,符合“使没电的电池恢复能量”的比喻义;“checking”
意为“检查”,“sharing” 表示 “分享”,“repairing” 意为 “修理”,都无法
体现 “给予能量、激励” 的含义,所以答案是 B。
53. D。考查副词。Liut 的回信对 Jim 产生了巨大的激励作用,他的成绩应该是有显著提升。
“dramatically” 表示 “显著地;戏剧性地”,突出了成绩变化的程度。
54. D。考查名词。根据后文 “35 years” 可知,此处描述的是一个较长的时间跨度。“decades”
表示“数十年”,“four decades”与“35 years”在时间上相符。
55. A。考查动词短语搭配。“pay it forward” 是固定短语,意为 “传递善意;让爱延续”,
Jim 通过参与慈善、帮助年轻人来回报社会,符合这一短语的含义。
第二节
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:报道最近出现的“七星连珠”现象。
56. occurred考查动词时态。根据时间状语“on February 28, 2025”可知,此处描述过去发生
的事情,需用一般过去时,“occur”的过去式为“occurred”。
57. a考查冠词。“in a straight line”为固定短语,意为“成一条直线”,此处表示土星、水
星等七颗行星排成一条直线,故填不定冠词“a”。
58. is rooted考查动词时态与固定搭配。“be rooted in”为固定短语,意为“植根于”,此处
陈述客观事实,用一般现在时;主语“Respect for the cosmos and nature”是单数概念,
所以 be动词用 is,故填“is rooted”。
59. as 考查介词。“dramatize...as...”为固定搭配,意为“把…… 渲染为……”,此处指一
些网络平台将这一天文现象渲染成“千年一遇的宇宙能量汇聚”,故填“as”。
60. concentration考查名词。根据形容词“relative”可知,此处需填名词作主语;“concentrate”
的名词形式为“concentration”,表示“集中;聚集”,故填 “concentration”。
61. negatively 考查副词。此处需用副词修饰动词“affecting”;“negative”的副词形式为
“negatively”,表示“负面地”,故填“negatively”。
英语答案 第 8 页 共 10 页
62. combined 考查非谓语动词。此处需用形容词化的过去分词作定语修饰“gravitational
influence”;“combined”意为“联合的;组合的”,表示这些行星“组合起来的”
引力影响,故填“combined”。
63. that考查代词。此处用“that”指代前文的“the gravitational influence”,用于比较结构中
避免重复;因“influence”为不可数名词,所以用“that”指代,而不用“those”(指
代复数名词)。
64. because考查连词。前文提到肉眼通常只能看到金星、木星和火星,后文解释原因是天王
星和海王星不够明亮、土星离太阳太近,“This is because...”为固定句型,用于说明
原因,故填“because”。
65. hoping考查非谓语动词。“astronomy enthusiasts”与“hope”之间为主动关系,此处用
现在分词短语“hoping to see more planets”作后置定语,修饰“enthusiasts”,相当于
定语从句“who hope to see more planets”,故填“hoping”。

The A-List
The best laptops on the market, as picked by our editors.
Lenovo Legion 5I
Best in class from the world’s most powerful RTX 4070 GPU. It’s a powerful and quiet performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen, so the big question becomes “do you choose the 14in version or 16in”. But whatever you choose should last for years, and look great while it’s doing it.
$3,499, lenovo.com
Microsoft Surface Laptop 7
A shining example of just how good a Windows laptop can be. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers performance and battery life. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 is on sale for $1,899.
$1,899, microsoft.com
Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED
A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals. Compared to the Microsoft, it has an additional HDMI and USB-A port, an SSD that’s roughly twice as fast, and the screen is brighter and offers rich OLED contrast.
$2,099, asus.com
Alienware m16 R2
There are cheaper gaming laptops, and faster ones too, but we love the balance offered by the m16 R2. Who doesn’t want a big 16in gaming laptop featuring a Uitra 9 CPU, a RTX 4070 GPU and 32GB of RAM? And for a decent price, considering it’s from Alienware.
$3,500, dell.com
21. Which feature is highlighted in both Lenovo Legion 5I and Microsoft Surface Laptop 7?
A. Long battery life.
B. Budget-friendly pricing.

When I first heard that garden centres are facing a wave of closures, I immediately thought of the one near my home. On a recent Wednesday afternoon, this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over milky coffees and slices of cake.
Yet, as I stepped through the door, the plants weren’t immediately visible. I had to pass shelves of homeware, toys, chemicals and power tools before I finally found the gardening section. Unlike the busy cafe, the gardening section was empty except for one member of staff and me.
This isn’t the type of place I tend to go looking for plants. There’s something about an average garden centre that I find off-putting. I favour smaller, family-run operations and plant fairs run by dedicated, experienced plantspeople who could offer advice and inspiration. I prefer plants grown locally, without chemicals.
It turns out I’m not alone. A recent Daily Mail article proposed that young people are to blame for the decline of garden centres. Gen Zs are visiting garden centres for the cafes and candles but are failing to drop enough cash to keep these businesses afloat. Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people are interested in plants. According to one online survey, 83% of 18 to 34-year-olds think gardening is “cool”. And since gen Zs are far more concerned about the climate crisis than older generations, it follows that they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants.
Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences that have encouraged me to decouple my gardening practices from the consumerism of garden centres. Perhaps what makes gardening meaningful can’t simply be bought in a garden centre.
24. What do we know about the garden centre near the author’s home?
A. It sells rare plants. B. It serves social needs.
C. It lacks enough staff. D. It attracts few customers.
25. What does the underlined word “off-putting” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Informative. B. Attractive. C. Unpleasant. D. Outdated.
26. What can we learn about gen Zs’ gardening preferences?
A. They buy plants online.
B. They favour imported plants.
C. They dislike gardening activities.
D. They seek nature-centred practices.
27. What is the author’s approach to gardening?
A. Watching his fellow gardeners. B. Caring for mass-produced plants.
C. Visiting garden centres regularly. D. Engaging in hands-on gardening.
C
Picture a robot. What do you see? A tough, metal-covered machine built to last longer than living things? Unfortunately, this very quality now threatens to drown the planet in extremely durable e-waste. What if, instead, robots were designed to break down and disappear naturally — like life does?
For a study in Science Advances, Pingdong Wei, a materials scientist at Westlake University in Hangzhou, and his friend Zhuang Zhang, a robotics engineer now at Fudan University in Shanghai, crafted a robotic arm and a handheld controller from pork proteins and plant fibers — materials strong enough to function yet delicate enough to degrade in backyard soil. After testing, both structures broke down within weeks.
They started with thin layers of plant fibers made from cotton pulp (浆), then added a softening agent for flexibility and dried the layers for strength. “Plant fibers are also cheap and easy to assemble (组装),” Wei says. To build sensors, the researchers used a conductive material from pork, in which the flow of ions (离子) changes when the material is stretched, bent or pressed. They then folded the flat films and sensors into 3D structures.
Wei and Zhang found that the controller and robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week of inactivity. Finally, they buried them both in a 20-centimeter-deep hole near their campus. Within eight weeks the machines were almost entirely gone.
Wei and Zhang envision bots like these handling dangerous waste and then dissolving; they also propose robots that aid surgeries and then safely break down inside the body. But it’s important to note that the technology is in very early stages.
“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,” says materials scientist Florian Hartmann of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, “we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that are biodegradable.”
28. Why are typical images of robots mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce a classic design. B. To highlight the need for change.
C. To promote long-lasting robots. D. To explain a technical process.
29. Which aspect of the research is mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. Choices of building materials.
B. Results of outdoor experiments.
C. Innovations in robotic functions.
D. Challenges in assembling robots.
30. What future challenge does Hartmann point out?
A. Creating wireless control systems.
B. Designing reliable power supplies.
C. Making electronic parts biodegradable.
D. Testing robots in outdoor environments.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. This Robot Copies Life — By Decomposing
B. A New Robotic Arm — With Greater Strength
C. Redefining Robotics — By Solving Power Problems
D. How Robots Transform — With Inspirations From Life
D
Med spas are springing up everywhere in the US. Duck into a dermatologist’s (皮肤科医生) office on your lunch break and walk out 30 minutes later with a younger-looking face. But the US isn’t exactly overflowing with dermatologists, and demand for cosmetic treatments soon brought more types of providers — general practitioners, eye doctors, dentists — who were happy to take the fast cash.
Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform basic medical procedures. “With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can get started in a month or two,” says Dan Friedman from a consulting firm. “Crucially, med spas are cash businesses. They avoid the expense and red tape of the American health insurance (保险) system.”
It’s easy to wonder, though, whether the thing that ultimately slows down the med spa money train might be the industry’s unchecked success. “There are people who come into this industry who are not qualified enough,” Friedman says. “It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid.”
Perhaps a more pressing threat is that the visible results of popular med-spa procedures will simply fall out of favor. The med-spa look has become so recognizable — the overfilled lips, the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as “Mar-a-Lago face”— that the trend seems to be swinging back toward a more natural look.
But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in.
32. What contributes to the rise of med spas in the US?
A. Sufficient supply of dermatologists.
B. Reduced costs of cosmetic materials.
C. Strong insurance coverage for services.
D. Relaxed requirements to enter the industry.
33. What does Friedman suggest the med spa industry should prioritize?
A. Broadening their service range.
B. Setting clear professional standards.
C. Promoting faster certification programs.
D. Educating customers on avoiding risky places.
34. What does the term “Mar-a-Lago face” in paragraph 4 bring to mind?
A. A natural and fresh look. B. An overly done appearance.
C. A celebrity-inspired beauty trend. D. A specific age-related facial feature.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of the med spa industry?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.

One day, I told my son not to play a video game. He paced around crossly for a while, and murmured to himself, “ 36 !” Then he found paper clips of different colors and sizes on my desk. He began linking them together and eventually created a rather interesting structure.
This incident reminded me that boredom can be liberating (令人自由). 37 , as they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom. We live in a culture where boredom is seen as a sign of something being wrong. But if you are entertained, or constantly in other people’s company, it is difficult to have your own thoughts.
Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing. 38 . It is when we stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself.
39 . And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy (治疗). Creative techniques such as guided visualization, expertly used to help people access their deeper untapped resources, can stimulate new perspectives and help get joy flowing again.
I have worked with clients who, by confronting their boredom through guided visualization, have opted for dramatic changes in lifestyle. One gave up a well-paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own fitness company. 40 .
None of the changes came out of the blue. All those hopes and dreams had always been there, and could finally come to the surface when attention was turned inward.
A. This is so boring
B. Taking breaks is a waste of time
C. Some people try to avoid boredom at all costs
D. Many musicians even welcome boring experiences
E. In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness
F. But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way
G. Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse

Jim Marquardt was 16 and he had an important letter to write to his sports hero, Mike Liut.
He 41 his heart into his words, and as a poor student hoping for the letter to be 42 , he later took it to his English teacher for help. The teacher wondered why a student with low grades was suddenly 43 but made the corrections anyway. Marquardt sent the letter and hoped Liut would 44 .
“Half of me was 45 , thinking, ‘Mike might write back,'” he recalls (回想). “The other half was thinking, ‘He’s never going to read it.'”
Then one day, as he arrived home from school, he saw a big white 46 with “St. Louis Blues” written on it. Marquardt was 47 . It took him a moment to open it. When he did, what he 48 out was a two-page handwritten letter. Liut offered 49 about playing hockey and personal words of advice: “The only person you have to 50 is yourself.”
At that point, Marquardt says, his life was filled with 51 and he was a lost soul. “What Mike did for me — writing back — was like 52 a dead battery,” he says.
Marquardt returned to school and his grades improved 53 . In the four 54 since, Marquardt got married, raised three children, and spent 35 years working in the food industry.
He also held part-time jobs with several local charities, often working with youths. It was a way of 55 it forward. “Maybe I can help these guys get through it,” he says.

A rare astronomical phenomenon known as the "seven-planet alignment (排成直线)" 56 (occur) in our solar system on February 28, 2025, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars aligning in 57 straight line.
Respect for the cosmos (宇宙) and nature 58 (root) in Chinese culture. This event has been dramatized by some online platforms 59 a "once-in-a-millennium gathering of cosmic energies" and an “auspicious (吉利的) cosmic sign”.
Some people are concerned that the relative 60 (concentrate) of planets during the alignment might increase the solar tidal force generated by the planetary system, potentially increasing solar activity and 61 (negative) affecting Earth.
However, objectively speaking, their 62 (combine) gravitational influence on Earth remains far weaker than 63 of the sun and moon. Therefore, such planetary alignments have no clear impact on Earth's tides, climate patterns, or geological activities.
In terms of visual experience, when observing space with the naked eye, you can usually see only Venus, Jupiter and Mars. This is 64 Uranus and Neptune are not bright enough to be visible, and Saturn is often too close to the sun. Although Mercury sets about 10 minutes after Saturn, ideal viewing conditions are required to spot it. Therefore, astronomy enthusiasts 65 (hope) to see more planets should prepare a pair of binoculars or a telescope.

Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help. The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life, she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400 cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her, her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them all over the county.

第一节
The one-day school tour sounds wonderful. I would like to recommend Hegang National Mine Park as the destination.
As one of China’s first national mine parks, Hegang National Mine Park offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich history of coal mining and witness the transformation of industrial sites into ecological and cultural landmarks. The park features preserved mining equipment, informative exhibits, and the impressive “Eye of the Earth”— a vast open-pit mine showcasing geological formations. Such an immersive experience would greatly enhance our understanding of environmental protection, industrial heritage, and sustainable development.
I sincerely hope my recommendation will be favorably considered, as this visit promises both educational enrichment and memorable experiences for all participants.
第二节
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty. She knew she could survive without food for a while, but only a few days without water. She opened the door and stretched out her hand, only to find she was still about three feet short of the water in the creek. So she got creative once again: She took her favorite sweater and dipped it into the water, letting the pink fabric soak up the water before pulling it back and wringing it into her mouth. As she grew weaker, she drifted in and out of sleep. Still, she clung to the hope that somebody would come to her rescue.
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator. Jeremy was working on a construction project near the bridge when he noticed something unusual — a flash of reflected light from below. Curious, he walked to the edge and peered down into the ditch. That’s when he saw the crumpled vehicle and the word “HELP” across the glass. Jeremy hurried down and saw the outline of a motionless figure inside. Startled, he immediately contacted emergency services. Help arrived soon after. Thanks to his alertness — and her extraordinary strength — Ms. Cassell was finally pulled from the wreckage, still alive after those long, freezing nights.

M: When you think about the changes that the planet has gone through, and then realize that these rocks were here all that time... Wow!

M: Umm… Well, new laws restrict development in protected areas and outline stronger punishments for activities that damage or pollute the environment.
W: Right. And why is this important? (11)
M: Because these areas provide homes for many unique creatures and plants.
W: Exactly. For example, China’s newest World Heritage Site, the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf. Why else?
M: They also have a big role to play in fighting climate change. (11) Mountain glaciers reflect heat and provide fresh water, and forests absorb large amounts of carbon.
W: Very good. Now, a major problem many natural heritage sites experience is the damage caused by so many visitors. (12) For example, Jiuzhaigou Valley National Park has experienced people littering, picking flowers and disturbing endangered animals.

详细解析
第二部分 阅读
第一节
A
语篇类型:应用文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:市场上最佳笔记本电脑大盘点。
21. A。 理解具体信息。根据文中对 Lenovo Legion 5I 的描述“It's a powerful and quiet performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen”以及对Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 的描述“Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers performance and battery life”可知,两款笔记本电脑都强调了电池续航能力强,A 选项正确。Lenovo Legion 5I 售价$3,499,不属于预算友好型,B 选项错误;Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 未提及游戏性能,C 选项错误;只有 Lenovo Legion 5I 提到了安静运行,D 选项错误。
22. C。 推理判断。文中提到“Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals”,说明 Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED非常适合经常出行的专业人士,且价格为$2,099,在$3,000 预算以下。
23. D。 文章出处。文章主要介绍了几款市场上最好的笔记本电脑,包括它们的特点、性能、价格等信息,属于科技产品的介绍和评测,很有可能出现在科技杂志上,D 选项正确。用户指南通常是针对某一产品的使用说明,A 选项错误;研究论文一般是关于某个研究课题的学术性文章,B 选项错误;服务手册主要是关于产品售后服务等方面的内容,C 选项错误。
B
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:作者回忆去附近一家园艺中心的经历,并分析园艺中心的没落原因,提倡脱离消费主义,回归自然园艺。
24. B。理解具体信息。根据文章第一段“this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over milky coffees and slices of cake”,这家园艺中心是一个中老年人社交的场所,目前顾客很多,并没有提到稀有植物、或员工不足的问题。
25. C。词义猜测。根据文章第二段“There’s something about an average garden centre that I find off-putting”结合前文描述,作者提到自己穿过琳琅满目的家居用品、玩具、化学品和电动工具区才找到植物区,整体体验令人失望和不适。另外,在接下来的话语中,作者也提到了自己真正的偏好。“off-putting”在这里应理解为“令人不快的”或“令人失望的”,而非有吸引力、信息丰富或过时。
26. D。推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people are interested in plants”以及后文提到“they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants”可知,Gen Z更倾向于选择以自然为中心的园艺方式,体现出他们对环保与可持续发展的关注。
27. D。推理判断。根据文章最后一段“Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences…”可以得知,作者倾向于亲自参与园艺工作,而非依赖于商店购买成品植物。通过这种实际参与,作者能够与植物建立深厚的联系,体验园艺的真正意义。
C
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意: 科学家研制出可自然分解的机器人手臂。
28.B。推理判断。文中第一段提到典型机器人是坚固耐用的金属机器,而这种特性导致大量难以降解的电子垃圾威胁地球,随后提出“如果机器人能像生命一样自然分解消失会怎样”,由此可知提及典型机器人形象是为了凸显机器人需要变革,向可自然分解的方向改变。
29.A。理解具体信息。第三段先介绍用棉浆制成的植物纤维薄层,添加软化剂增加柔韧性并干燥增强强度,还说明了用猪肉中的导电材料制作传感器。因此,本段谈到了制作机器人手臂和手持控制器所选用的材料。
30.C。理解具体信息。Hartmann说“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,”“we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that are biodegradable”,指出如果想让机器人在自然中可持续,需要让电子元件、电源甚至电池都可生物降解,即制作可生物降解的电子部件是未来面临的挑战。
31.A。主旨大意。文章主要介绍了科学家制作出由猪肉蛋白和植物纤维制成、能够自然分解的机器人手臂和手持控制器,并探讨了此类机器人的应用前景及面临的挑战,文章重点是机器人可分解的特性,A 选项“这款机器人模仿生命——通过分解”准确概括了文章核心内容,作为标题最合适;B选项只提到机器人手臂的强度,片面;C 选项“解决电源问题”并非文章重点。
D
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:美国医疗美容中心数量激增的原因,带来的问题及行业的未来发展。
32.D。推理判断。文中提到“Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform basic medical procedures.”以及“With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can get started in a month or two”,说明进入该行业的门槛较低,只要有执行基本医疗程序的执照,花费几千美元并经过一些培训,一两个月就能入行,这使得美国的医疗美容中心大量涌现,D选项“进入该行业的要求宽松”正确。
33.B。理解具体信息。根据Friedman所说“It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid”,可知他认为该行业应优先排除不合格的从业者,并为每个从业者设定教育基线,即设定明确的专业标准。
34.B。词义猜测。文中提到“The med-spa look has become so recognizable—the overfilled lips, the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as ‘Mar-a-Lago face’”,从前面描述的“过度填充的嘴唇、玻璃般光滑的额头”以及多种程序的组合可知“Mar-a-Lago face”指的是过度修饰的外观,B选项正确。
35.A。观点态度。根据最后一段“But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in”,作者认为在这个行业中,趋势的变化只是推出新服务的机会,医疗美容中心已经开始推出新技术以提供更好的效果,并且解决美容不满意的业务永远不会差,由此可见作者对医疗美容行业的未来持乐观态度。
第二节
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自我
文章大意:无聊可能带来积极影响。
36. A。前文提到作者告诉儿子不要玩电子游戏,儿子生气地走来走去还自言自语。结合语境,儿子此时因不能玩游戏感到无聊,所以会抱怨 “This is so boring”(这太无聊了),A 选项符合儿子当时的情绪和情境,且能引入主题boredom。
37. D。后文提到“they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom”(他们认识到创造力和无聊之间的明确联系),D 选项“Many musicians even welcome boring experiences”(许多音乐家甚至欢迎无聊的经历),其中 “many musicians” 对应后文的“they”,说明音乐家这类人能认识到无聊和创造力的关系,符合上下文逻辑。
38. F。前文说“Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing”(无聊告诉我们,我们对正在做的事情不满意),后文又说 “It is when we stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself”(当我们不再专注于某件事,让思维漫游或做白日梦时,方向可能就会出现)。F 选项 “But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way”(但是,实际上,我们不必急于以任何方式结束它),起到承上启下的作用,说明虽然无聊表示我们对当下不满,但不必急于消除无聊,因为它可能带来新方向。
39. E。后文提到“And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy”(当人们在生活中陷入绝境时,他们可能会寻求治疗),E 选项 “In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness”(在某些情况下,无聊表现为陷入困境的状态),“stuckness” 与后文“stuck at a dead end”相呼应,说明无聊有时会以陷入困境的形式出现,符合上下文逻辑。
40. G。前文举例“One gave up a well - paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own fitness company”(一个人放弃了高薪但令人沮丧的金融职业,创办了自己的健身公司),G选项“Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse”(另一个人选择结束她的旅行写作生涯,接受培训成为一名护士),“Another”与前文 “One” 对应,继续举例说明病人通过面对无聊在生活方式上做出巨大改变。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
语篇类型:记叙文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:16 岁成绩不佳且生活迷茫的学生 Jim Marquardt 给体育偶像 Mike Liut 写信寻求指导,收到对方两页手写回信,这封信激励了他,此后四十年间他成家立业、投身慈善,以传递善意的方式将这份温暖延续。
41. B。考查动词短语搭配。作者想给体育偶像写信,此处需要表达他全身心投入创作信件内容。“pour one’s heart into sth.” 是固定搭配,意为 “将心血倾注于某事”,契合他认真写信的状态,也与后文找老师修改信件形成逻辑关联。
42. C。考查形容词。从后文“he later took it to his English teacher for help”可知,Jim 作为一名贫困学生,希望信件毫无瑕疵,因此找老师帮忙修改。“perfect” 表示 “完美的”,符合他想让信件达到理想状态的心理;“brief” 意为 “简短的”,“rare” 表示 “罕见的” ,“objective”表示“客观的”,均与他找老师修改以完善信件的行为不符。
43. D。考查形容词。前文提到 Jim 成绩较差,却突然主动找老师修改信件,这种行为体现出他的积极性发生了变化。“motivated” 意为 “有积极性的;有动力的”,能够准确描述他因写信而产生的主动性;“annoyed” 表示 “恼怒的”,“sensitive” 意为 “敏感的”,“confident” 表示 “自信的”,均不符合语境。
44. B。考查动词。Jim 给偶像写信,自然期待对方能够有所回应。“respond”表示 “回应;回复”,符合他写信后希望得到反馈的心理;“repay”意为 “偿还”,“bother” 表示 “打扰”,“intervene”表示 “干预”, 均不符合语境。
45. D。考查形容词。根据后文“Mike might write back”可知,Jim内心有一部分是抱有希望的,认为偶像可能会回信。“hopeful”准确描述了他对收到回信的积极预期;“gentle”表示“温和的”,“generous”意为“慷慨的”,“lucky”表示“幸运的”,都不能体现他对偶像回信的期待心理。
46. C。考查名词。从后文“open it”以及“a two - page handwritten letter”可知,他看到的是一个装有信件的物品。“envelope” 表示 “信封”,是信件的常见载体,符合打开后取出信件的描述;“label”意为 “标签”,“poster” 表示 “海报”,“postcard” 意为“明信片”,都不符合信件被封装在其中的情景。
47. B。考查形容词。收到偶像的回信, Jim应该是感到震惊的。“stunned”意为“震惊的;目瞪口呆的”,能够体现他意外收到回信时的强烈情绪;“greedy”表示“贪婪的”,“unaware”意为“未察觉的”,“relaxed” 表示 “放松的”, 均不符合语境。
48. A。考查动词短语。此处描述他从信封中取出信件的动作,“pull out” 表示 “抽出;取出”,符合从信封中拿出信件的行为逻辑;“handed out”意为“分发”,“sent out”表示“分发”,“threw out”意为“扔掉”,均与从信封中取出信件的动作不符。
49. A。考查名词。根据后文“about playing hockey and personal words of advice”可知,Liut 在信中提供了关于打曲棍球的相关内容。“tips” 表示 “建议;提示”,与 “advice” 语义相近,符合信件中给予指导的语境;“terms” 意为 “条款”,“facilities”表示“设施”,“opportunities”意为“机会”,都不符合信件中提供建议的内容。
50. C。考查动词。结合语境,Liut 在信中鼓励 Jim,强调自我满足的重要性。“satisfy” 表示 “使满意;满足”,“The only person you have to satisfy is yourself” 表达了 “唯一需要满足的人是你自己”,符合激励的语义;“blame” 意为 “责备”,“forgive” 表示 “原谅”,“measure”意为“衡量”,都与句子表达的自我成长与满足的逻辑不符。
51. A。考查名词。根据后文“he was a lost soul”可知,当时 Jim 的生活处于混乱和迷茫的状态。“chaos”表示“混乱;无序”,能够准确描述他内心的迷茫与生活的无序;“memories”意为“回忆”,“adventures”表示“冒险”,“promise”意为“承诺”,都与他 “迷失自我”的状态不匹配。
52. B。考查动词。此处将 Liut 的回信对Jim的影响比喻为给电池充电,象征着重新赋予他动力。“charging”表示“充电”,符合“使没电的电池恢复能量”的比喻义;“checking”意为“检查”,“sharing” 表示 “分享”,“repairing” 意为 “修理”,都无法体现 “给予能量、激励” 的含义,所以答案是B。
53. D。考查副词。Liut 的回信对 Jim 产生了巨大的激励作用,他的成绩应该是有显著提升。“dramatically” 表示 “显著地;戏剧性地”,突出了成绩变化的程度。
54. D。考查名词。根据后文 “35 years” 可知,此处描述的是一个较长的时间跨度。“decades”表示“数十年”,“four decades”与“35 years”在时间上相符。
55. A。考查动词短语搭配。“pay it forward” 是固定短语,意为 “传递善意;让爱延续”,Jim 通过参与慈善、帮助年轻人来回报社会,符合这一短语的含义。
第二节
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:报道最近出现的“七星连珠”现象。
56. occurred考查动词时态。根据时间状语“on February 28, 2025”可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,需用一般过去时,“occur”的过去式为“occurred”。
57. a考查冠词。“in a straight line”为固定短语,意为“成一条直线”,此处表示土星、水星等七颗行星排成一条直线,故填不定冠词“a”。
58. is rooted考查动词时态与固定搭配。“be rooted in”为固定短语,意为“植根于”,此处陈述客观事实,用一般现在时;主语“Respect for the cosmos and nature”是单数概念,所以be动词用is,故填“is rooted”。
59. as考查介词。“dramatize...as...”为固定搭配,意为“把…… 渲染为……”,此处指一些网络平台将这一天文现象渲染成“千年一遇的宇宙能量汇聚”,故填“as”。
60. concentration考查名词。根据形容词“relative”可知,此处需填名词作主语;“concentrate”的名词形式为“concentration”,表示“集中;聚集”,故填 “concentration”。
61. negatively考查副词。此处需用副词修饰动词“affecting”;“negative”的副词形式为“negatively”,表示“负面地”,故填“negatively”。
62. combined考查非谓语动词。此处需用形容词化的过去分词作定语修饰“gravitational influence”;“combined”意为“联合的;组合的”,表示这些行星“组合起来的” 引力影响,故填“combined”。
63. that考查代词。此处用“that”指代前文的“the gravitational influence”,用于比较结构中避免重复;因“influence”为不可数名词,所以用“that”指代,而不用“those”(指代复数名词)。
64. because考查连词。前文提到肉眼通常只能看到金星、木星和火星,后文解释原因是天王星和海王星不够明亮、土星离太阳太近,“This is because...”为固定句型,用于说明原因,故填“because”。
65. hoping考查非谓语动词。“astronomy enthusiasts”与“hope”之间为主动关系,此处用现在分词短语“hoping to see more planets”作后置定语,修饰“enthusiasts”,相当于定语从句“who hope to see more planets”,故填“hoping”。

The best laptops on the market, as picked by our editors.
Lenovo Legion 5I
Best in class from the world’s most powerful RTX 4070 GPU. It’s a powerful and quiet performer
with an unbeatable battery life and screen, so the big question becomes “do you choose the 14in version
or 16in”. But whatever you choose should last for years, and look great while it’s doing it.
$3,499, lenovo.com
Microsoft Surface Laptop 7
A shining example of just how good a Windows laptop can be. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it
offers a fantastic package that delivers performance and battery life. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7

When I first heard that garden centres are facing a wave of closures, I immediately thought of the
one near my home. On a recent Wednesday afternoon, this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-
house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over
milky coffees and slices of cake.
Yet, as I stepped through the door, the plants weren’t immediately visible. I had to pass shelves of
homeware, toys, chemicals and power tools before I finally found the gardening section. Unlike the
busy cafe, the gardening section was empty except for one member of staff and me.
This isn’t the type of place I tend to go looking for plants. There’s something about an average
garden centre that I find off-putting. I favour smaller, family-run operations and plant fairs run by
dedicated, experienced plantspeople who could offer advice and inspiration. I prefer plants grown
locally, without chemicals.
It turns out I’m not alone. A recent Daily Mail article proposed that young people are to blame for
the decline of garden centres. Gen Zs are visiting garden centres for the cafes and candles but are
failing to drop enough cash to keep these businesses afloat. Yet look a little closer, and it becomes
clear that young people are interested in plants. According to one online survey, 83% of 18 to 34-year-
olds think gardening is “cool”. And since gen Zs are far more concerned about the climate crisis than
older generations, it follows that they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening
instead of relying on mass-produced plants.
Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into multiple new ones to share for my fellow
gardeners are remarkable experiences that have encouraged me to decouple my gardening practices
from the consumerism of garden centres. Perhaps what makes gardening meaningful can’t simply be
bought in a garden centre.
24. What do we know about the garden centre near the author’s home?
A. It sells rare plants. B. It serves social needs.
C. It lacks enough staff. D. It attracts few customers.
25. What does the underlined word “off-putting” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Informative. B. Attractive. C. Unpleasant. D. Outdated.
英语试题 第 5 页 共 10 页
26. What can we learn about gen Zs’ gardening preferences?
A. They buy plants online.
B. They favour imported plants.
C. They dislike gardening activities.
D. They seek nature-centred practices.
27. What is the author’s approach to gardening?
A. Watching his fellow gardeners. B. Caring for mass-produced plants.
C. Visiting garden centres regularly. D. Engaging in hands-on gardening.
C
Picture a robot. What do you see? A tough, metal-covered machine built to last longer than living
things? Unfortunately, this very quality now threatens to drown the planet in extremely durable e-waste.
What if, instead, robots were designed to break down and disappear naturally — like life does?
For a study in Science Advances, Pingdong Wei, a materials scientist at Westlake University in
Hangzhou, and his friend Zhuang Zhang, a robotics engineer now at Fudan University in Shanghai,
crafted a robotic arm and a handheld controller from pork proteins and plant fibers — materials strong
enough to function yet delicate enough to degrade in backyard soil. After testing, both structures broke
down within weeks.
They started with thin layers of plant fibers made from cotton pulp (浆), then added a softening
agent for flexibility and dried the layers for strength. “Plant fibers are also cheap and easy to assemble
(组装),” Wei says. To build sensors, the researchers used a conductive material from pork, in which
the flow of ions (离子) changes when the material is stretched, bent or pressed. They then folded the
flat films and sensors into 3D structures.
Wei and Zhang found that the controller and robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week
of inactivity. Finally, they buried them both in a 20-centimeter-deep hole near their campus. Within
eight weeks the machines were almost entirely gone.
Wei and Zhang envision bots like these handling dangerous waste and then dissolving; they also
propose robots that aid surgeries and then safely break down inside the body. But it’s important to note
that the technology is in very early stages.
“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,” says materials scientist
Florian Hartmann of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, “we also
need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that are biodegradable.”
28. Why are typical images of robots mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce a classic design. B. To highlight the need for change.
C. To promote long-lasting robots. D. To explain a technical process.
29. Which aspect of the research is mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. Choices of building materials.
B. Results of outdoor experiments.
C. Innovations in robotic functions.
D. Challenges in assembling robots.

30. What future challenge does Hartmann point out?
A. Creating wireless control systems.
B. Designing reliable power supplies.
C. Making electronic parts biodegradable.
D. Testing robots in outdoor environments.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. This Robot Copies Life — By Decomposing
B. A New Robotic Arm — With Greater Strength
C. Redefining Robotics — By Solving Power Problems
D. How Robots Transform — With Inspirations From Life

exactly overflowing with dermatologists, and demand for cosmetic treatments soon brought more types
of providers — general practitioners, eye doctors, dentists — who were happy to take the fast cash.
Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform basic medical procedures.
“With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can get started in a month or two,” says Dan
Friedman from a consulting firm. “Crucially, med spas are cash businesses. They avoid the expense
and red tape of the American health insurance (保险) system.”
It’s easy to wonder, though, whether the thing that ultimately slows down the med spa money
train might be the industry’s unchecked success. “There are people who come into this industry who
are not qualified enough,” Friedman says. “It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled treatments,
and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set a baseline of education
required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s trust or attract the kind of
regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid.”
Perhaps a more pressing threat is that the visible results of popular med-spa procedures will
simply fall out of favor. The med-spa look has become so recognizable — the overfilled lips, the glass-
smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as
“Mar-a-Lago face”— that the trend seems to be swinging back toward a more natural look.
But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings.
Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more
believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one
to be in.
32. What contributes to the rise of med spas in the US?
A. Sufficient supply of dermatologists.
B. Reduced costs of cosmetic materials.
C. Strong insurance coverage for services.
D. Relaxed requirements to enter the industry.

33. What does Friedman suggest the med spa industry should prioritize?
A. Broadening their service range.
B. Setting clear professional standards.
C. Promoting faster certification programs.
D. Educating customers on avoiding risky places.
34. What does the term “Mar-a-Lago face” in paragraph 4 bring to mind?

C. A celebrity-inspired beauty trend. D. A specific age-related facial feature.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of the med spa industry?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.

One day, I told my son not to play a video game. He paced around crossly for a while, and
murmured to himself, “ 36 !” Then he found paper clips of different colors and sizes on my desk.
He began linking them together and eventually created a rather interesting structure.
This incident reminded me that boredom can be liberating (令人自由). 37 , as they recognize
a clear link between creativity and boredom. We live in a culture where boredom is seen as a sign of
something being wrong. But if you are entertained, or constantly in other people’s company, it is
difficult to have your own thoughts.
Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing. 38 . It is when we
stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present
itself.
39 . And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy
(治疗). Creative techniques such as guided visualization, expertly used to help people access their
deeper untapped resources, can stimulate new perspectives and help get joy flowing again.
I have worked with clients who, by confronting their boredom through guided visualization, have
opted for dramatic changes in lifestyle. One gave up a well-paid but frustrating career in finance to set
up her own fitness company. 40 .
None of the changes came out of the blue. All those hopes and dreams had always been there,
and could finally come to the surface when attention was turned inward.
A. This is so boring
B. Taking breaks is a waste of time
C. Some people try to avoid boredom at all costs
D. Many musicians even welcome boring experiences
E. In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness
F. But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way
G. Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse

Jim Marquardt was 16 and he had an important letter to write to his sports hero, Mike Liut.
He 41 his heart into his words, and as a poor student hoping for the letter to be 42 , he later
took it to his English teacher for help. The teacher wondered why a student with low grades was
suddenly 43 but made the corrections anyway. Marquardt sent the letter and hoped Liut would
44 .
“Half of me was 45 , thinking, ‘Mike might write back,'” he recalls (回想). “The other half was
thinking, ‘He’s never going to read it.'”
Then one day, as he arrived home from school, he saw a big white 46 with “St. Louis Blues”
written on it. Marquardt was 47 . It took him a moment to open it. When he did, what he 48 out
was a two-page handwritten letter. Liut offered 49 about playing hockey and personal words of
advice: “The only person you have to 50 is yourself.”
At that point, Marquardt says, his life was filled with 51 and he was a lost soul. “What Mike
did for me — writing back — was like 52 a dead battery,” he says.
Marquardt returned to school and his grades improved 53 . In the four 54 since, Marquardt
got married, raised three children, and spent 35 years working in the food industry.
He also held part-time jobs with several local charities, often working with youths. It was a way

A rare astronomical phenomenon known as the "seven-planet alignment (排成直线)" 56 (occur)
in our solar system on February 28, 2025, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and
Mars aligning in 57 straight line.
Respect for the cosmos (宇宙) and nature 58 (root) in Chinese culture. This event has been
dramatized by some online platforms 59 a "once-in-a-millennium gathering of cosmic energies"
and an “auspicious (吉利的) cosmic sign”.
Some people are concerned that the relative 60 (concentrate) of planets during the alignment
might increase the solar tidal force generated by the planetary system, potentially increasing solar
activity and 61 (negative) affecting Earth.
However, objectively speaking, their 62 (combine) gravitational influence on Earth remains
far weaker than 63 of the sun and moon. Therefore, such planetary alignments have no clear impact
on Earth's tides, climate patterns, or geological activities.
In terms of visual experience, when observing space with the naked eye, you can usually see only
Venus, Jupiter and Mars. This is 64 Uranus and Neptune are not bright enough to be visible, and
Saturn is often too close to the sun. Although Mercury sets about 10 minutes after Saturn, ideal viewing
conditions are required to spot it. Therefore, astronomy enthusiasts 65 (hope) to see more planets
should prepare a pair of binoculars or a telescope.

Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to
her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help.
The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have
been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping
英语试题 第 10 页 共 10 页
her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of
battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life,
she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing
overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently
purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she
didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400
cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used
makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her, her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area
that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them
all over the county.

The one-day school tour sounds wonderful. I would like to recommend Hegang National Mine Park as the destination.
As one of China’s first national mine parks, Hegang National Mine Park offers a unique opportunity to explore the rich history of coal mining and witness the transformation of industrial sites into ecological and cultural landmarks. The park features preserved mining equipment, informative exhibits, and the impressive “Eye of the Earth”— a vast open-pit mine showcasing geological formations. Such an immersive experience would greatly enhance our understanding of environmental protection, industrial heritage, and sustainable development.
I sincerely hope my recommendation will be favorably considered, as this visit promises both educational enrichment and memorable experiences for all participants.
第二节
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty. She knew she could survive without food for a while, but only a few days without water. She opened the door and stretched out her hand, only to find she was still about three feet short of the water in the creek. So she got creative once again: She took her favorite sweater and dipped it into the water, letting the pink fabric soak up the water before pulling it back and wringing it into her mouth. As she grew weaker, she drifted in and out of sleep. Still, she clung to the hope that somebody would come to her rescue.
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator. Jeremy was working on a construction project near the bridge when he noticed something unusual — a flash of reflected light from below. Curious, he walked to the edge and peered down into the ditch. That’s when he saw the crumpled vehicle and the word “HELP” across the glass. Jeremy hurried down and saw the outline of a motionless figure inside. Startled, he immediately contacted emergency services. Help arrived soon after. Thanks to his alertness — and her extraordinary strength — Ms. Cassell was finally pulled from the wreckage, still alive after those long, freezing nights.

W: So, which white paint are we using in the bathroom, light white or dark white? We need to decide. I’d like to buy light white paint.
M: Honestly? I can’t tell the difference. I didn’t know white came in so many different colors! (1)
Text 2
M: Would you like some chocolate? I think I’ve eaten enough.
W: No, thanks. Iced fruit juice would be a better choice. It’s so hot that I don’t want to eat anything. I’ll stick with my cold drinks! (2)
Text 3
W: Nice cup — cute shape!
M: Yes, it’s the last one though. My mom gave me a set of four glasses. I guess I need to be more careful not to break it when washing it! (3)
W: Ha-ha! You need to change to paper ones!
Text 4
M: I’m going for a run at 6:00 a.m. I’ll set my watch and get back at 8:00 a.m. (4)
W: OK. I’ll drop Florence at school. They will get a trip this afternoon and she’s very excited!
Text 5
M: It is so hot outside. We have been waiting for one hour. How much longer will it take to get to the movie theater?
W: I have never seen so much traffic at this time of day. (5) After the movie, we’ll grab something to eat.
M: Okay.
Text 6
W: I can’t stop watching YouTube videos! (6)
M: I know how you feel.
W: I started watching a video about dogs, and now I’ve watched five videos about monkeys, three ones about cats, and another two videos about people who have built tiny homes. I just can’t stop! (6)
M: That’s what YouTube does to you. After you watch a video, there are always suggestions for other videos you might enjoy.
W: Okay, this is the last video I’m going to watch. Then I’m going to the gym. (7)

W: I’m really enjoying walking in the Peak District National Park. I love seeing the ancient rocks.
M: I was just thinking of the same thing. They’re so interesting.
W: It’s hard to imagine how long they’ve been here — maybe thousands and thousands of years.
M: When you think about the changes that the planet has gone through, and then realize that these rocks were here all that time... Wow!
W: Yes, people first lived here 10,000 years ago. Touching these rocks really feels like touching history, doesn’t it? It makes me feel quite sad somehow. (9)
M: It must have been a pretty wild place to live.
W: Yes! People raised families here and so on — it’s impossible to imagine now!

W: Okay, class… Who remembers what we learned about the recent measures being taken to protect our natural heritage areas? (11)
M: Umm… Well, new laws restrict development in protected areas and outline stronger punishments for activities that damage or pollute the environment.
W: Right. And why is this important? (11)
M: Because these areas provide homes for many unique creatures and plants.
W: Exactly. For example, China’s newest World Heritage Site, the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf. Why else?
M: They also have a big role to play in fighting climate change. (11) Mountain glaciers reflect heat and provide fresh water, and forests absorb large amounts of carbon.
W: Very good. Now, a major problem many natural heritage sites experience is the damage caused by so many visitors. (12) For example, Jiuzhaigou Valley National Park has experienced people littering, picking flowers and disturbing endangered animals.
M: My dad says tourism brings wealth to these areas.
W: Well, he’s not wrong. And people should be able to see and enjoy these beautiful sites. However, we mustn’t risk the long-term health of our planet for short-term benefits.

M: Hey, have you ever done any volunteer work before?
W: Yeah. I volunteered at a charity food bank last summer. (13) (14)
M: That’s really cool! What was that experience like?
W: It was a real education, honestly. I had no idea how difficult some people’s lives are! Some of the people we gave food to were already working two jobs.
M: I’d love to volunteer too, but I don’t have much time to offer.
W: Well, I did three shifts a week, (14) each for about two hours a time. But you can do whatever works for you.
M: True. I’m not sure what type of work I’d like to do.
W: Well, there are a lot of different options. What about an animal shelter? You’re a big animal fan, right?
M: I am. But it would probably really upset me to have to work with sick or dying animals every day.
W: I understand. Well, what about a community center? Or a medical center? My friend Alice is part of a volunteer programme at the local hospital. (15)
M: Oh, that sounds interesting. What does she do there?
W: I think she does stuff like talking to lonely patients, reading to kids…that sort of thing.
M: That sounds like something I would enjoy. (15) Could you put me in contact with her? (15) (16)
W: Sure! I’ll give her your number. (16)

文章大意:市场上最佳笔记本电脑大盘点。
21. A。 理解具体信息。根据文中对 Lenovo Legion 5I 的描述“It's a powerful and quiet performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen”以及对Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 的描述“Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers performance and battery life”可知,两款笔记本电脑都强调了电池续航能力强,A 选项正确。Lenovo Legion 5I 售价$3,499,不属于预算友好型,B 选项错误;Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 未提及游戏性能,C 选项错误;只有 Lenovo Legion 5I 提到了安静运行,D 选项错误。
22. C。 推理判断。文中提到“Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals”,说明 Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED非常适合经常出行的专业人士,且价格为$2,099,在$3,000 预算以下。
23. D。 文章出处。文章主要介绍了几款市场上最好的笔记本电脑,包括它们的特点、性能、价格等信息,属于科技产品的介绍和评测,很有可能出现在科技杂志上,D 选项正确。用户指南通常是针对某一产品的使用说明,A 选项错误;研究论文一般是关于某个研究课题的学术性文章,B 选项错误;服务手册主要是关于产品售后服务等方面的内容,C 选项错误。

文章大意:作者回忆去附近一家园艺中心的经历,并分析园艺中心的没落原因,提倡脱离消费主义,回归自然园艺。
24. B。理解具体信息。根据文章第一段“this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over milky coffees and slices of cake”,这家园艺中心是一个中老年人社交的场所,目前顾客很多,并没有提到稀有植物、或员工不足的问题。
25. C。词义猜测。根据文章第二段“There’s something about an average garden centre that I find off-putting”结合前文描述,作者提到自己穿过琳琅满目的家居用品、玩具、化学品和电动工具区才找到植物区,整体体验令人失望和不适。另外,在接下来的话语中,作者也提到了自己真正的偏好。“off-putting”在这里应理解为“令人不快的”或“令人失望的”,而非有吸引力、信息丰富或过时。
26. D。推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people are interested in plants”以及后文提到“they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants”可知,Gen Z更倾向于选择以自然为中心的园艺方式,体现出他们对环保与可持续发展的关注。
27. D。推理判断。根据文章最后一段“Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences…”可以得知,作者倾向于亲自参与园艺工作,而非依赖于商店购买成品植物。通过这种实际参与,作者能够与植物建立深厚的联系,体验园艺的真正意义。

文章大意: 科学家研制出可自然分解的机器人手臂。
28.B。推理判断。文中第一段提到典型机器人是坚固耐用的金属机器,而这种特性导致大量难以降解的电子垃圾威胁地球,随后提出“如果机器人能像生命一样自然分解消失会怎样”,由此可知提及典型机器人形象是为了凸显机器人需要变革,向可自然分解的方向改变。
29.A。理解具体信息。第三段先介绍用棉浆制成的植物纤维薄层,添加软化剂增加柔韧性并干燥增强强度,还说明了用猪肉中的导电材料制作传感器。因此,本段谈到了制作机器人手臂和手持控制器所选用的材料。
30.C。理解具体信息。Hartmann说“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,”“we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that are biodegradable”,指出如果想让机器人在自然中可持续,需要让电子元件、电源甚至电池都可生物降解,即制作可生物降解的电子部件是未来面临的挑战。
31.A。主旨大意。文章主要介绍了科学家制作出由猪肉蛋白和植物纤维制成、能够自然分解的机器人手臂和手持控制器,并探讨了此类机器人的应用前景及面临的挑战,文章重点是机器人可分解的特性,A 选项“这款机器人模仿生命——通过分解”准确概括了文章核心内容,作为标题最合适;B选项只提到机器人手臂的强度,片面;C 选项“解决电源问题”并非文章重点。
D
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:美国医疗美容中心数量激增的原因,带来的问题及行业的未来发展。
32.D。推理判断。文中提到“Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform basic medical procedures.”以及“With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can get started in a month or two”,说明进入该行业的门槛较低,只要有执行基本医疗程序的执照,花费几千美元并经过一些培训,一两个月就能入行,这使得美国的医疗美容中心大量涌现,D选项“进入该行业的要求宽松”正确。
33.B。理解具体信息。根据Friedman所说“It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid”,可知他认为该行业应优先排除不合格的从业者,并为每个从业者设定教育基线,即设定明确的专业标准。
34.B。词义猜测。文中提到“The med-spa look has become so recognizable—the overfilled lips, the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as ‘Mar-a-Lago face’”,从前面描述的“过度填充的嘴唇、玻璃般光滑的额头”以及多种程序的组合可知“Mar-a-Lago face”指的是过度修饰的外观,B选项正确。
35.A。观点态度。根据最后一段“But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in”,作者认为在这个行业中,趋势的变化只是推出新服务的机会,医疗美容中心已经开始推出新技术以提供更好的效果,并且解决美容不满意的业务永远不会差,由此可见作者对医疗美容行业的未来持乐观态度。

语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自我
文章大意:无聊可能带来积极影响。
36. A。前文提到作者告诉儿子不要玩电子游戏,儿子生气地走来走去还自言自语。结合语境,儿子此时因不能玩游戏感到无聊,所以会抱怨 “This is so boring”(这太无聊了),A 选项符合儿子当时的情绪和情境,且能引入主题boredom。
37. D。后文提到“they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom”(他们认识到创造力和无聊之间的明确联系),D 选项“Many musicians even welcome boring experiences”(许多音乐家甚至欢迎无聊的经历),其中 “many musicians” 对应后文的“they”,说明音乐家这类人能认识到无聊和创造力的关系,符合上下文逻辑。
38. F。前文说“Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing”(无聊告诉我们,我们对正在做的事情不满意),后文又说 “It is when we stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself”(当我们不再专注于某件事,让思维漫游或做白日梦时,方向可能就会出现)。F 选项 “But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way”(但是,实际上,我们不必急于以任何方式结束它),起到承上启下的作用,说明虽然无聊表示我们对当下不满,但不必急于消除无聊,因为它可能带来新方向。
39. E。后文提到“And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy”(当人们在生活中陷入绝境时,他们可能会寻求治疗),E 选项 “In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness”(在某些情况下,无聊表现为陷入困境的状态),“stuckness” 与后文“stuck at a dead end”相呼应,说明无聊有时会以陷入困境的形式出现,符合上下文逻辑。
40. G。前文举例“One gave up a well - paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own fitness company”(一个人放弃了高薪但令人沮丧的金融职业,创办了自己的健身公司),G选项“Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse”(另一个人选择结束她的旅行写作生涯,接受培训成为一名护士),“Another”与前文 “One” 对应,继续举例说明病人通过面对无聊在生活方式上做出巨大改变。

语篇类型:记叙文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:16 岁成绩不佳且生活迷茫的学生 Jim Marquardt 给体育偶像 Mike Liut 写信寻求指导,收到对方两页手写回信,这封信激励了他,此后四十年间他成家立业、投身慈善,以传递善意的方式将这份温暖延续。
41. B。考查动词短语搭配。作者想给体育偶像写信,此处需要表达他全身心投入创作信件内容。“pour one’s heart into sth.” 是固定搭配,意为 “将心血倾注于某事”,契合他认真写信的状态,也与后文找老师修改信件形成逻辑关联。
42. C。考查形容词。从后文“he later took it to his English teacher for help”可知,Jim 作为一名贫困学生,希望信件毫无瑕疵,因此找老师帮忙修改。“perfect” 表示 “完美的”,符合他想让信件达到理想状态的心理;“brief” 意为 “简短的”,“rare” 表示 “罕见的” ,“objective”表示“客观的”,均与他找老师修改以完善信件的行为不符。
43. D。考查形容词。前文提到 Jim 成绩较差,却突然主动找老师修改信件,这种行为体现出他的积极性发生了变化。“motivated” 意为 “有积极性的;有动力的”,能够准确描述他因写信而产生的主动性;“annoyed” 表示 “恼怒的”,“sensitive” 意为 “敏感的”,“confident” 表示 “自信的”,均不符合语境。
44. B。考查动词。Jim 给偶像写信,自然期待对方能够有所回应。“respond”表示 “回应;回复”,符合他写信后希望得到反馈的心理;“repay”意为 “偿还”,“bother” 表示 “打扰”,“intervene”表示 “干预”, 均不符合语境。
45. D。考查形容词。根据后文“Mike might write back”可知,Jim内心有一部分是抱有希望的,认为偶像可能会回信。“hopeful”准确描述了他对收到回信的积极预期;“gentle”表示“温和的”,“generous”意为“慷慨的”,“lucky”表示“幸运的”,都不能体现他对偶像回信的期待心理。
46. C。考查名词。从后文“open it”以及“a two - page handwritten letter”可知,他看到的是一个装有信件的物品。“envelope” 表示 “信封”,是信件的常见载体,符合打开后取出信件的描述;“label”意为 “标签”,“poster” 表示 “海报”,“postcard” 意为“明信片”,都不符合信件被封装在其中的情景。
47. B。考查形容词。收到偶像的回信, Jim应该是感到震惊的。“stunned”意为“震惊的;目瞪口呆的”,能够体现他意外收到回信时的强烈情绪;“greedy”表示“贪婪的”,“unaware”意为“未察觉的”,“relaxed” 表示 “放松的”, 均不符合语境。
48. A。考查动词短语。此处描述他从信封中取出信件的动作,“pull out” 表示 “抽出;取出”,符合从信封中拿出信件的行为逻辑;“handed out”意为“分发”,“sent out”表示“分发”,“threw out”意为“扔掉”,均与从信封中取出信件的动作不符。
49. A。考查名词。根据后文“about playing hockey and personal words of advice”可知,Liut 在信中提供了关于打曲棍球的相关内容。“tips” 表示 “建议;提示”,与 “advice” 语义相近,符合信件中给予指导的语境;“terms” 意为 “条款”,“facilities”表示“设施”,“opportunities”意为“机会”,都不符合信件中提供建议的内容。
50. C。考查动词。结合语境,Liut 在信中鼓励 Jim,强调自我满足的重要性。“satisfy” 表示 “使满意;满足”,“The only person you have to satisfy is yourself” 表达了 “唯一需要满足的人是你自己”,符合激励的语义;“blame” 意为 “责备”,“forgive” 表示 “原谅”,“measure”意为“衡量”,都与句子表达的自我成长与满足的逻辑不符。
51. A。考查名词。根据后文“he was a lost soul”可知,当时 Jim 的生活处于混乱和迷茫的状态。“chaos”表示“混乱;无序”,能够准确描述他内心的迷茫与生活的无序;“memories”意为“回忆”,“adventures”表示“冒险”,“promise”意为“承诺”,都与他 “迷失自我”的状态不匹配。
52. B。考查动词。此处将 Liut 的回信对Jim的影响比喻为给电池充电,象征着重新赋予他动力。“charging”表示“充电”,符合“使没电的电池恢复能量”的比喻义;“checking”意为“检查”,“sharing” 表示 “分享”,“repairing” 意为 “修理”,都无法体现 “给予能量、激励” 的含义,所以答案是B。
53. D。考查副词。Liut 的回信对 Jim 产生了巨大的激励作用,他的成绩应该是有显著提升。“dramatically” 表示 “显著地;戏剧性地”,突出了成绩变化的程度。
54. D。考查名词。根据后文 “35 years” 可知,此处描述的是一个较长的时间跨度。“decades”表示“数十年”,“four decades”与“35 years”在时间上相符。
55. A。考查动词短语搭配。“pay it forward” 是固定短语,意为 “传递善意;让爱延续”,Jim 通过参与慈善、帮助年轻人来回报社会,符合这一短语的含义。
第二节
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:报道最近出现的“七星连珠”现象。
56. occurred考查动词时态。根据时间状语“on February 28, 2025”可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,需用一般过去时,“occur”的过去式为“occurred”。
57. a考查冠词。“in a straight line”为固定短语,意为“成一条直线”,此处表示土星、水星等七颗行星排成一条直线,故填不定冠词“a”。
58. is rooted考查动词时态与固定搭配。“be rooted in”为固定短语,意为“植根于”,此处陈述客观事实,用一般现在时;主语“Respect for the cosmos and nature”是单数概念,所以be动词用is,故填“is rooted”。
59. as考查介词。“dramatize...as...”为固定搭配,意为“把…… 渲染为……”,此处指一些网络平台将这一天文现象渲染成“千年一遇的宇宙能量汇聚”,故填“as”。
60. concentration考查名词。根据形容词“relative”可知,此处需填名词作主语;“concentrate”的名词形式为“concentration”,表示“集中;聚集”,故填 “concentration”。
61. negatively考查副词。此处需用副词修饰动词“affecting”;“negative”的副词形式为“negatively”,表示“负面地”,故填“negatively”。
62. combined考查非谓语动词。此处需用形容词化的过去分词作定语修饰“gravitational influence”;“combined”意为“联合的;组合的”,表示这些行星“组合起来的” 引力影响,故填“combined”。
63. that考查代词。此处用“that”指代前文的“the gravitational influence”,用于比较结构中避免重复;因“influence”为不可数名词,所以用“that”指代,而不用“those”(指代复数名词)。
64. because考查连词。前文提到肉眼通常只能看到金星、木星和火星,后文解释原因是天王星和海王星不够明亮、土星离太阳太近,“This is because...”为固定句型,用于说明原因,故填“because”。
65. hoping考查非谓语动词。“astronomy enthusiasts”与“hope”之间为主动关系,此处用现在分词短语“hoping to see more planets”作后置定语,修饰“enthusiasts”,相当于定语从句“who hope to see more planets”,故填“hoping”。

The A-List
The best laptops on the market, as picked by our editors.
Lenovo Legion 5I
Best in class from the world’s most powerful RTX 4070 GPU. It’s a powerful and quiet performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen, so the big question becomes “do you choose the 14in version or 16in”. But whatever you choose should last for years, and look great while it’s doing it.
$3,499, lenovo.com
Microsoft Surface Laptop 7
A shining example of just how good a Windows laptop can be. Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers performance and battery life. The Microsoft Surface Laptop 7 is on sale for $1,899.
$1,899, microsoft.com
Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED
A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals. Compared to the Microsoft, it has an additional HDMI and USB-A port, an SSD that’s roughly twice as fast, and the screen is brighter and offers rich OLED contrast.

When I first heard that garden centres are facing a wave of closures, I immediately thought of the one near my home. On a recent Wednesday afternoon, this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over milky coffees and slices of cake.
Yet, as I stepped through the door, the plants weren’t immediately visible. I had to pass shelves of homeware, toys, chemicals and power tools before I finally found the gardening section. Unlike the busy cafe, the gardening section was empty except for one member of staff and me.
This isn’t the type of place I tend to go looking for plants. There’s something about an average garden centre that I find off-putting. I favour smaller, family-run operations and plant fairs run by dedicated, experienced plantspeople who could offer advice and inspiration. I prefer plants grown locally, without chemicals.
It turns out I’m not alone. A recent Daily Mail article proposed that young people are to blame for the decline of garden centres. Gen Zs are visiting garden centres for the cafes and candles but are failing to drop enough cash to keep these businesses afloat. Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people are interested in plants. According to one online survey, 83% of 18 to 34-year-olds think gardening is “cool”. And since gen Zs are far more concerned about the climate crisis than older generations, it follows that they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants.
Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences that have encouraged me to decouple my gardening practices from the consumerism of garden centres. Perhaps what makes gardening meaningful can’t simply be bought in a garden centre.
24. What do we know about the garden centre near the author’s home?
A. It sells rare plants. B. It serves social needs.
C. It lacks enough staff. D. It attracts few customers.
25. What does the underlined word “off-putting” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Informative. B. Attractive. C. Unpleasant. D. Outdated.
26. What can we learn about gen Zs’ gardening preferences?
A. They buy plants online.
B. They favour imported plants.
C. They dislike gardening activities.
D. They seek nature-centred practices.
27. What is the author’s approach to gardening?

Picture a robot. What do you see? A tough, metal-covered machine built to last longer than living things? Unfortunately, this very quality now threatens to drown the planet in extremely durable e-waste. What if, instead, robots were designed to break down and disappear naturally — like life does?
For a study in Science Advances, Pingdong Wei, a materials scientist at Westlake University in Hangzhou, and his friend Zhuang Zhang, a robotics engineer now at Fudan University in Shanghai, crafted a robotic arm and a handheld controller from pork proteins and plant fibers — materials strong enough to function yet delicate enough to degrade in backyard soil. After testing, both structures broke down within weeks.
They started with thin layers of plant fibers made from cotton pulp (浆), then added a softening agent for flexibility and dried the layers for strength. “Plant fibers are also cheap and easy to assemble (组装),” Wei says. To build sensors, the researchers used a conductive material from pork, in which the flow of ions (离子) changes when the material is stretched, bent or pressed. They then folded the flat films and sensors into 3D structures.
Wei and Zhang found that the controller and robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week of inactivity. Finally, they buried them both in a 20-centimeter-deep hole near their campus. Within eight weeks the machines were almost entirely gone.
Wei and Zhang envision bots like these handling dangerous waste and then dissolving; they also propose robots that aid surgeries and then safely break down inside the body. But it’s important to note that the technology is in very early stages.
“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,” says materials scientist Florian Hartmann of the Max Planck Institute for Intelligent Systems in Stuttgart, Germany, “we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that are biodegradable.”
28. Why are typical images of robots mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. To introduce a classic design. B. To highlight the need for change.
C. To promote long-lasting robots. D. To explain a technical process.
29. Which aspect of the research is mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. Choices of building materials.
B. Results of outdoor experiments.
C. Innovations in robotic functions.
D. Challenges in assembling robots.
30. What future challenge does Hartmann point out?
A. Creating wireless control systems.
B. Designing reliable power supplies.

Med spas are springing up everywhere in the US. Duck into a dermatologist’s (皮肤科医生) office on your lunch break and walk out 30 minutes later with a younger-looking face. But the US isn’t exactly overflowing with dermatologists, and demand for cosmetic treatments soon brought more types of providers — general practitioners, eye doctors, dentists — who were happy to take the fast cash.
Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform basic medical procedures. “With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can get started in a month or two,” says Dan Friedman from a consulting firm. “Crucially, med spas are cash businesses. They avoid the expense and red tape of the American health insurance (保险) system.”
It’s easy to wonder, though, whether the thing that ultimately slows down the med spa money train might be the industry’s unchecked success. “There are people who come into this industry who are not qualified enough,” Friedman says. “It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid.”
Perhaps a more pressing threat is that the visible results of popular med-spa procedures will simply fall out of favor. The med-spa look has become so recognizable — the overfilled lips, the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as “Mar-a-Lago face”— that the trend seems to be swinging back toward a more natural look.
But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in.
32. What contributes to the rise of med spas in the US?
A. Sufficient supply of dermatologists.
B. Reduced costs of cosmetic materials.
C. Strong insurance coverage for services.
D. Relaxed requirements to enter the industry.
33. What does Friedman suggest the med spa industry should prioritize?
A. Broadening their service range.
B. Setting clear professional standards.
C. Promoting faster certification programs.
D. Educating customers on avoiding risky places.
34. What does the term “Mar-a-Lago face” in paragraph 4 bring to mind?
A. A natural and fresh look. B. An overly done appearance.
C. A celebrity-inspired beauty trend. D. A specific age-related facial feature.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of the med spa industry?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.

One day, I told my son not to play a video game. He paced around crossly for a while, and murmured to himself, “ 36 !” Then he found paper clips of different colors and sizes on my desk. He began linking them together and eventually created a rather interesting structure.
This incident reminded me that boredom can be liberating (令人自由). 37 , as they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom. We live in a culture where boredom is seen as a sign of something being wrong. But if you are entertained, or constantly in other people’s company, it is difficult to have your own thoughts.
Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing. 38 . It is when we stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself.
39 . And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy (治疗). Creative techniques such as guided visualization, expertly used to help people access their deeper untapped resources, can stimulate new perspectives and help get joy flowing again.
I have worked with clients who, by confronting their boredom through guided visualization, have opted for dramatic changes in lifestyle. One gave up a well-paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own fitness company. 40 .
None of the changes came out of the blue. All those hopes and dreams had always been there, and could finally come to the surface when attention was turned inward.
A. This is so boring
B. Taking breaks is a waste of time
C. Some people try to avoid boredom at all costs
D. Many musicians even welcome boring experiences
E. In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness
F. But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way
G. Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse

Jim Marquardt was 16 and he had an important letter to write to his sports hero, Mike Liut.
He 41 his heart into his words, and as a poor student hoping for the letter to be 42 , he later took it to his English teacher for help. The teacher wondered why a student with low grades was suddenly 43 but made the corrections anyway. Marquardt sent the letter and hoped Liut would 44 .
“Half of me was 45 , thinking, ‘Mike might write back,'” he recalls (回想). “The other half was thinking, ‘He’s never going to read it.'”
Then one day, as he arrived home from school, he saw a big white 46 with “St. Louis Blues” written on it. Marquardt was 47 . It took him a moment to open it. When he did, what he 48 out was a two-page handwritten letter. Liut offered 49 about playing hockey and personal words of advice: “The only person you have to 50 is yourself.”
At that point, Marquardt says, his life was filled with 51 and he was a lost soul. “What Mike did for me — writing back — was like 52 a dead battery,” he says.
Marquardt returned to school and his grades improved 53 . In the four 54 since, Marquardt got married, raised three children, and spent 35 years working in the food industry.
He also held part-time jobs with several local charities, often working with youths. It was a way of 55 it forward. “Maybe I can help these guys get through it,” he says.

A rare astronomical phenomenon known as the "seven-planet alignment (排成直线)" 56 (occur) in our solar system on February 28, 2025, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and Mars aligning in 57 straight line.
Respect for the cosmos (宇宙) and nature 58 (root) in Chinese culture. This event has been dramatized by some online platforms 59 a "once-in-a-millennium gathering of cosmic energies" and an “auspicious (吉利的) cosmic sign”.
Some people are concerned that the relative 60 (concentrate) of planets during the alignment might increase the solar tidal force generated by the planetary system, potentially increasing solar activity and 61 (negative) affecting Earth.
However, objectively speaking, their 62 (combine) gravitational influence on Earth remains far weaker than 63 of the sun and moon. Therefore, such planetary alignments have no clear impact on Earth's tides, climate patterns, or geological activities.
In terms of visual experience, when observing space with the naked eye, you can usually see only Venus, Jupiter and Mars. This is 64 Uranus and Neptune are not bright enough to be visible, and Saturn is often too close to the sun. Although Mercury sets about 10 minutes after Saturn, ideal viewing conditions are required to spot it. Therefore, astronomy enthusiasts 65 (hope) to see more planets should prepare a pair of binoculars or a telescope.

Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help. The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life, she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400 cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her, her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them all over the county.

1. 写作词数应为150个左右;

When I first heard that garden centres are facing a wave of closures, I immediately thought of the
one near my home. On a recent Wednesday afternoon, this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-
house cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over
milky coffees and slices of cake.
Yet, as I stepped through the door, the plants weren’t immediately visible. I had to pass shelves of
homeware, toys, chemicals and power tools before I finally found the gardening section. Unlike the
busy cafe, the gardening section was empty except for one member of staff and me.
This isn’t the type of place I tend to go looking for plants. There’s something about an average

olds think gardening is “cool”. And since gen Zs are far more concerned about the climate crisis than
older generations, it follows that they would be looking for nature-centred approaches to gardening

regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid.”
Perhaps a more pressing threat is that the visible results of popular med-spa procedures will
simply fall out of favor. The med-spa look has become so recognizable — the overfilled lips, the glass-
smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known in some circles as
“Mar-a-Lago face”— that the trend seems to be swinging back toward a more natural look.
But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than an opportunity for new offerings.
Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and technologies they say will offer better, more
believable results. In any case, the business of addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one
to be in.
32. What contributes to the rise of med spas in the US?
A. Sufficient supply of dermatologists.
B. Reduced costs of cosmetic materials.
C. Strong insurance coverage for services.
D. Relaxed requirements to enter the industry.

33. What does Friedman suggest the med spa industry should prioritize?
A. Broadening their service range.
B. Setting clear professional standards.
C. Promoting faster certification programs.
D. Educating customers on avoiding risky places.
34. What does the term “Mar-a-Lago face” in paragraph 4 bring to mind?
A. A natural and fresh look. B. An overly done appearance.
C. A celebrity-inspired beauty trend. D. A specific age-related facial feature.
35. What is the author’s attitude toward the future of the med spa industry?
A. Optimistic. B. Concerned. C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.

One day, I told my son not to play a video game. He paced around crossly for a while, and
murmured to himself, “ 36 !” Then he found paper clips of different colors and sizes on my desk.
He began linking them together and eventually created a rather interesting structure.
This incident reminded me that boredom can be liberating (令人自由). 37 , as they recognize
a clear link between creativity and boredom. We live in a culture where boredom is seen as a sign of
something being wrong. But if you are entertained, or constantly in other people’s company, it is
difficult to have your own thoughts.
Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing. 38 . It is when we
stop focusing the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present
itself.
39 . And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek out therapy
(治疗). Creative techniques such as guided visualization, expertly used to help people access their
deeper untapped resources, can stimulate new perspectives and help get joy flowing again.
I have worked with clients who, by confronting their boredom through guided visualization, have
opted for dramatic changes in lifestyle. One gave up a well-paid but frustrating career in finance to set
up her own fitness company. 40 .
None of the changes came out of the blue. All those hopes and dreams had always been there,
and could finally come to the surface when attention was turned inward.
A. This is so boring
B. Taking breaks is a waste of time
C. Some people try to avoid boredom at all costs
D. Many musicians even welcome boring experiences
E. In some cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness
F. But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way
G. Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse

Jim Marquardt was 16 and he had an important letter to write to his sports hero, Mike Liut.
He 41 his heart into his words, and as a poor student hoping for the letter to be 42 , he later
took it to his English teacher for help. The teacher wondered why a student with low grades was

44 .
“Half of me was 45 , thinking, ‘Mike might write back,'” he recalls (回想). “The other half was

Then one day, as he arrived home from school, he saw a big white 46 with “St. Louis Blues”
written on it. Marquardt was 47 . It took him a moment to open it. When he did, what he 48 out
was a two-page handwritten letter. Liut offered 49 about playing hockey and personal words of
advice: “The only person you have to 50 is yourself.”
At that point, Marquardt says, his life was filled with 51 and he was a lost soul. “What Mike
did for me — writing back — was like 52 a dead battery,” he says.
Marquardt returned to school and his grades improved 53 . In the four 54 since, Marquardt
got married, raised three children, and spent 35 years working in the food industry.
He also held part-time jobs with several local charities, often working with youths. It was a way

A rare astronomical phenomenon known as the "seven-planet alignment (排成直线)" 56 (occur)
in our solar system on February 28, 2025, with Saturn, Mercury, Neptune, Venus, Uranus, Jupiter, and
Mars aligning in 57 straight line.
Respect for the cosmos (宇宙) and nature 58 (root) in Chinese culture. This event has been
dramatized by some online platforms 59 a "once-in-a-millennium gathering of cosmic energies"
and an “auspicious (吉利的) cosmic sign”.
Some people are concerned that the relative 60 (concentrate) of planets during the alignment
might increase the solar tidal force generated by the planetary system, potentially increasing solar
activity and 61 (negative) affecting Earth.
However, objectively speaking, their 62 (combine) gravitational influence on Earth remains
far weaker than 63 of the sun and moon. Therefore, such planetary alignments have no clear impact
on Earth's tides, climate patterns, or geological activities.
In terms of visual experience, when observing space with the naked eye, you can usually see only
Venus, Jupiter and Mars. This is 64 Uranus and Neptune are not bright enough to be visible, and
Saturn is often too close to the sun. Although Mercury sets about 10 minutes after Saturn, ideal viewing
conditions are required to spot it. Therefore, astronomy enthusiasts 65 (hope) to see more planets
should prepare a pair of binoculars or a telescope.

Around midnight on Wednesday, March 5, Ms. Cassell fell asleep at the wheel while driving to
her mother’s house and crashed into a shallow creek (小溪). She immediately began to scream for help.
The road was mere yards away, but because her car was almost directly under a bridge, it would have
been difficult for drivers to hear or see her.
The accident shattered (碎裂) her left arm and legs. The front of the car collapsed inward, trapping
英语试题 第 10 页 共 10 页
her lower body. Her cellphone flew under the passenger seat, just out of reach, and quickly ran out of
battery. All she could do was move her arms, and one was broken.
Her leg was bleeding heavily. In what was most likely the first of many moves that saved her life,
she grabbed her belt and fastened a tourniquet (止血带). As temperatures dropped below freezing
overnight, she covered herself with a comforter that was in the back of her car — a gift she had recently
purchased for a friend.
Her family realized the next day that she hadn’t returned home, and started to worry. When she
didn’t respond to calls or texts from her children, they began to look for her.
The area where she crashed was mostly farmland, but the bridge was fairly busy, and around 400
cars would have passed by Ms. Cassell every day. To signal that she was in the car, Ms. Cassell used
makeup to write the word “help” on the driver’s side window.
When all efforts failed to locate her, her family contacted an independent rescue team in the area
that sent out dogs and drones (无人机) to assist in the search. They followed up on tips that took them
all over the county.
注意:
1. 写作词数应为 150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置做答。

The one-day school tour sounds wonderful. I would like to recommend Hegang National Mine
Park as the destination.
As one of China’s first national mine parks, Hegang National Mine Park offers a unique
opportunity to explore the rich history of coal mining and witness the transformation of industrial
sites into ecological and cultural landmarks. The park features preserved mining equipment,
informative exhibits, and the impressive “Eye of the Earth”— a vast open-pit mine showcasing
geological formations. Such an immersive experience would greatly enhance our understanding of
environmental protection, industrial heritage, and sustainable development.
I sincerely hope my recommendation will be favorably considered, as this visit promises both
educational enrichment and memorable experiences for all participants.
第二节
As time went on, Ms. Cassell felt more and more thirsty. She knew she could survive without
food for a while, but only a few days without water. She opened the door and stretched out her hand,
only to find she was still about three feet short of the water in the creek. So she got creative once
again: She took her favorite sweater and dipped it into the water, letting the pink fabric soak up the
water before pulling it back and wringing it into her mouth. As she grew weaker, she drifted in and
out of sleep. Still, she clung to the hope that somebody would come to her rescue.
On the sixth day, she was spotted by Jeremy Vander, a heavy machinery operator. Jeremy was
working on a construction project near the bridge when he noticed something unusual — a flash of
reflected light from below. Curious, he walked to the edge and peered down into the ditch. That’s
when he saw the crumpled vehicle and the word “HELP” across the glass. Jeremy hurried down and
saw the outline of a motionless figure inside. Startled, he immediately contacted emergency services.
Help arrived soon after. Thanks to his alertness — and her extraordinary strength — Ms. Cassell
was finally pulled from the wreckage, still alive after those long, freezing nights.

W: So, which white paint are we using in the bathroom, light white or dark white? We need to
decide. I’d like to buy light white paint.
M: Honestly? I can’t tell the difference. I didn’t know white came in so many different colors!
(1)
Text 2
M: Would you like some chocolate? I think I’ve eaten enough.
W: No, thanks. Iced fruit juice would be a better choice. It’s so hot that I don’t want to eat anything.
I’ll stick with my cold drinks! (2)
Text 3
W: Nice cup — cute shape!
M: Yes, it’s the last one though. My mom gave me a set of four glasses. I guess I need to be
more careful not to break it when washing it! (3)
W: Ha-ha! You need to change to paper ones!
Text 4
M: I’m going for a run at 6:00 a.m. I’ll set my watch and get back at 8:00 a.m. (4)
W: OK. I’ll drop Florence at school. They will get a trip this afternoon and she’s very excited!
Text 5
M: It is so hot outside. We have been waiting for one hour. How much longer will it take to get
to the movie theater?
W: I have never seen so much traffic at this time of day. (5) After the movie, we’ll grab something
to eat.
M: Okay.
Text 6
W: I can’t stop watching YouTube videos! (6)
M: I know how you feel.
W: I started watching a video about dogs, and now I’ve watched five videos about monkeys,
three ones about cats, and another two videos about people who have built tiny homes. I
just can’t stop! (6)
M: That’s what YouTube does to you. After you watch a video, there are always suggestions for
other videos you might enjoy.
W: Okay, this is the last video I’m going to watch. Then I’m going to the gym. (7)
Text 7
W: I’m really enjoying walking in the Peak District National Park. I love seeing the ancient rocks.
M: I was just thinking of the same thing. They’re so interesting.
W: It’s hard to imagine how long they’ve been here — maybe thousands and thousands of years.
M: When you think about the changes that the planet has gone through, and then realize that these
rocks were here all that time... Wow!
W: Yes, people first lived here 10,000 years ago. Touching these rocks really feels like touching
history, doesn’t it? It makes me feel quite sad somehow. (9)
M: It must have been a pretty wild place to live.
W: Yes! People raised families here and so on — it’s impossible to imagine now!
Text 8
W: Okay, class… Who remembers what we learned about the recent measures being taken to
protect our natural heritage areas? (11)
M: Umm… Well, new laws restrict development in protected areas and outline stronger
punishments for activities that damage or pollute the environment.
英语答案 第 3 页 共 10 页
W: Right. And why is this important? (11)
M: Because these areas provide homes for many unique creatures and plants.
W: Exactly. For example, China’s newest World Heritage Site, the Migratory Bird Sanctuaries along
the Coast of the Yellow Sea-Bohai Gulf. Why else?
M: They also have a big role to play in fighting climate change. (11) Mountain glaciers reflect
heat and provide fresh water, and forests absorb large amounts of carbon.
W: Very good. Now, a major problem many natural heritage sites experience is the damage
caused by so many visitors. (12) For example, Jiuzhaigou Valley National Park has experienced
people littering, picking flowers and disturbing endangered animals.
M: My dad says tourism brings wealth to these areas.
W: Well, he’s not wrong. And people should be able to see and enjoy these beautiful sites. However,
we mustn’t risk the long-term health of our planet for short-term benefits.
Text 9
M: Hey, have you ever done any volunteer work before?
W: Yeah. I volunteered at a charity food bank last summer. (13) (14)
M: That’s really cool! What was that experience like?
W: It was a real education, honestly. I had no idea how difficult some people’s lives are! Some of
the people we gave food to were already working two jobs.
M: I’d love to volunteer too, but I don’t have much time to offer.
W: Well, I did three shifts a week, (14) each for about two hours a time. But you can do whatever
works for you.
M: True. I’m not sure what type of work I’d like to do.
W: Well, there are a lot of different options. What about an animal shelter? You’re a big animal fan,
right?
M: I am. But it would probably really upset me to have to work with sick or dying animals every
day.
W: I understand. Well, what about a community center? Or a medical center? My friend Alice is
part of a volunteer programme at the local hospital. (15)
M: Oh, that sounds interesting. What does she do there?
W: I think she does stuff like talking to lonely patients, reading to kids…that sort of thing.
M: That sounds like something I would enjoy. (15) Could you put me in contact with her? (15)
(16)
W: Sure! I’ll give her your number. (16)

第一节
A
语篇类型:应用文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:市场上最佳笔记本电脑大盘点。
21. A。 理解具体信息。根据文中对 Lenovo Legion 5I 的描述“It's a powerful and quiet
performer with an unbeatable battery life and screen”以及对 Microsoft Surface Laptop 7
的描述“Despite a few minor drawbacks, it offers a fantastic package that delivers
performance and battery life”可知,两款笔记本电脑都强调了电池续航能力强,A 选
项正确。Lenovo Legion 5I 售价$3,499,不属于预算友好型,B 选项错误;Microsoft
Surface Laptop 7 未提及游戏性能,C 选项错误;只有 Lenovo Legion 5I 提到了安
静运行,D 选项错误。
22. C。 推理判断。文中提到“Asus Zenbook S 13 OLED A compact and budget friendly Ultrabook
that’s the best available device for many on-the-go professionals”,说明 Asus Zenbook
S 13 OLED 非常适合经常出行的专业人士,且价格为$2,099,在$3,000 预算以下。
23. D。 文章出处。文章主要介绍了几款市场上最好的笔记本电脑,包括它们的特点、性能、
价格等信息,属于科技产品的介绍和评测,很有可能出现在科技杂志上,D 选项正
确。用户指南通常是针对某一产品的使用说明,A 选项错误;研究论文一般是关于
某个研究课题的学术性文章,B 选项错误;服务手册主要是关于产品售后服务等方
面的内容,C 选项错误。
B
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:作者回忆去附近一家园艺中心的经历,并分析园艺中心的没落原因,提倡脱离消
费主义,回归自然园艺。
24. B。理解具体信息。根据文章第一段“this garden centre’s car park was full and its in-house
cafe was filled with people my parents’ age and older, who love to come here and chat over
milky coffees and slices of cake”,这家园艺中心是一个中老年人社交的场所,目前顾
客很多,并没有提到稀有植物、或员工不足的问题。
25. C。词义猜测。根据文章第二段“There’s something about an average garden centre that I find
off-putting”结合前文描述,作者提到自己穿过琳琅满目的家居用品、玩具、化学品
和电动工具区才找到植物区,整体体验令人失望和不适。另外,在接下来的话语中,
作者也提到了自己真正的偏好。“off-putting”在这里应理解为“令人不快的”或“令
人失望的”,而非有吸引力、信息丰富或过时。
26. D。推理判断。根据文章第四段“Yet look a little closer, and it becomes clear that young people
are interested in plants”以及后文提到“ they would be looking for nature-centred
approaches to gardening instead of relying on mass-produced plants”可知,Gen Z更倾
向于选择以自然为中心的园艺方式,体现出他们对环保与可持续发展的关注。
27. D。推理判断。根据文章最后一段“Growing crops from seed or splitting a mature plant into
multiple new ones to share for my fellow gardeners are remarkable experiences…”可以得
知,作者倾向于亲自参与园艺工作,而非依赖于商店购买成品植物。通过这种实际
参与,作者能够与植物建立深厚的联系,体验园艺的真正意义。
C
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意: 科学家研制出可自然分解的机器人手臂。
28.B。推理判断。文中第一段提到典型机器人是坚固耐用的金属机器,而这种特性导致大量
难以降解的电子垃圾威胁地球,随后提出“如果机器人能像生命一样自然分解消失会
英语答案 第 5 页 共 10 页
怎样”,由此可知提及典型机器人形象是为了凸显机器人需要变革,向可自然分解的
方向改变。
29.A。理解具体信息。第三段先介绍用棉浆制成的植物纤维薄层,添加软化剂增加柔韧性并
干燥增强强度,还说明了用猪肉中的导电材料制作传感器。因此,本段谈到了制作机
器人手臂和手持控制器所选用的材料。
30.C。理解具体信息。Hartmann 说“If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside
in nature,”“we also need to think of electronics or power supplies, or even batteries, that
are biodegradable”,指出如果想让机器人在自然中可持续,需要让电子元件、电源甚
至电池都可生物降解,即制作可生物降解的电子部件是未来面临的挑战。
31.A。主旨大意。文章主要介绍了科学家制作出由猪肉蛋白和植物纤维制成、能够自然分解
的机器人手臂和手持控制器,并探讨了此类机器人的应用前景及面临的挑战,文章重
点是机器人可分解的特性,A 选项“这款机器人模仿生命——通过分解”准确概括了
文章核心内容,作为标题最合适;B 选项只提到机器人手臂的强度,片面;C 选项
“解决电源问题”并非文章重点。
D
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:美国医疗美容中心数量激增的原因,带来的问题及行业的未来发展。
32.D。推理判断。文中提到“Barriers to entry are low, as long as you’re already licensed to perform
basic medical procedures.”以及“With a few thousand dollars and prior training, you can
get started in a month or two”,说明进入该行业的门槛较低,只要有执行基本医疗程
序的执照,花费几千美元并经过一些培训,一两个月就能入行,这使得美国的医疗美
容中心大量涌现,D 选项“进入该行业的要求宽松”正确。
33.B。理解具体信息。根据 Friedman 所说“It’s not hard to find horror stories of mishandled
treatments, and if the industry doesn’t take care to shut out those kinds of providers and set
a baseline of education required of every practitioner, it could ultimately damage the public’s
trust or attract the kind of regulatory check the industry has so far managed to avoid”,可
知他认为该行业应优先排除不合格的从业者,并为每个从业者设定教育基线,即设定
明确的专业标准。
34.B。词义猜测。文中提到“The med-spa look has become so recognizable—the overfilled lips,
the glass-smooth forehead, the combination of multiple procedures that’s come to be known
in some circles as ‘Mar-a-Lago face’”,从前面描述的“过度填充的嘴唇、玻璃般光滑
的额头”以及多种程序的组合可知“Mar-a-Lago face”指的是过度修饰的外观,B 选
项正确。
35.A。观点态度。根据最后一段“But in an industry like this, a changing trend is little more than
an opportunity for new offerings. Already, med spas have begun rolling out techniques and
technologies they say will offer better, more believable results. In any case, the business of
addressing cosmetic dissatisfaction is never a bad one to be in”,作者认为在这个行业中,
趋势的变化只是推出新服务的机会,医疗美容中心已经开始推出新技术以提供更好的
效果,并且解决美容不满意的业务永远不会差,由此可见作者对医疗美容行业的未来
持乐观态度。
第二节
语篇类型:观点 主题语境:人与自我
文章大意:无聊可能带来积极影响。
36. A。前文提到作者告诉儿子不要玩电子游戏,儿子生气地走来走去还自言自语。结合语
境,儿子此时因不能玩游戏感到无聊,所以会抱怨 “This is so boring”(这太无聊
了),A 选项符合儿子当时的情绪和情境,且能引入主题 boredom。
37. D。后文提到“they recognize a clear link between creativity and boredom”(他们认识到创
英语答案 第 6 页 共 10 页
造力和无聊之间的明确联系),D 选项“Many musicians even welcome boring
experiences”(许多音乐家甚至欢迎无聊的经历),其中 “many musicians” 对应后
文的“they”,说明音乐家这类人能认识到无聊和创造力的关系,符合上下文逻辑。
38. F。前文说“Boredom sends us a message that we aren’t satisfied by what we are doing”(无
聊告诉我们,我们对正在做的事情不满意),后文又说 “It is when we stop focusing
the mind and allow it to wander or daydream, directionless, that direction may present itself”
(当我们不再专注于某件事,让思维漫游或做白日梦时,方向可能就会出现)。F 选
项 “But, really, we don’t have to rush to put an end to it in any way”(但是,实际上,
我们不必急于以任何方式结束它),起到承上启下的作用,说明虽然无聊表示我们对
当下不满,但不必急于消除无聊,因为它可能带来新方向。
39. E。后文提到“And it is when people are stuck at a dead end in their lives that they may seek
out therapy”(当人们在生活中陷入绝境时,他们可能会寻求治疗),E 选项 “In some
cases, boredom takes the form of stuckness”(在某些情况下,无聊表现为陷入困境的
状态),“stuckness” 与后文“stuck at a dead end”相呼应,说明无聊有时会以陷入
困境的形式出现,符合上下文逻辑。
40. G。前文举例“One gave up a well - paid but frustrating career in finance to set up her own
fitness company”(一个人放弃了高薪但令人沮丧的金融职业,创办了自己的健身公
司),G 选项“Another chose to end her travel writing days and train to be a nurse”(另
一个人选择结束她的旅行写作生涯,接受培训成为一名护士),“Another”与前文
“One” 对应,继续举例说明病人通过面对无聊在生活方式上做出巨大改变。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
语篇类型:记叙文 主题语境:人与社会
文章大意:16 岁成绩不佳且生活迷茫的学生 Jim Marquardt 给体育偶像 Mike Liut 写信寻
求指导,收到对方两页手写回信,这封信激励了他,此后四十年间他成家立业、投身慈善,
以传递善意的方式将这份温暖延续。
41. B。考查动词短语搭配。作者想给体育偶像写信,此处需要表达他全身心投入创作信件内
容。“pour one’s heart into sth.” 是固定搭配,意为 “将心血倾注于某事”,契合他
认真写信的状态,也与后文找老师修改信件形成逻辑关联。
42. C。考查形容词。从后文“he later took it to his English teacher for help”可知,Jim 作为
一名贫困学生,希望信件毫无瑕疵,因此找老师帮忙修改。“perfect” 表示 “完美
的”,符合他想让信件达到理想状态的心理;“brief” 意为 “简短的”,“rare”
表示 “罕见的” ,“objective”表示“客观的”,均与他找老师修改以完善信件的
行为不符。
43. D。考查形容词。前文提到 Jim 成绩较差,却突然主动找老师修改信件,这种行为体现
出他的积极性发生了变化。“motivated” 意为 “有积极性的;有动力的”,能够准
确描述他因写信而产生的主动性;“annoyed” 表示 “恼怒的”,“sensitive” 意为
“敏感的”,“confident” 表示 “自信的”,均不符合语境。
44. B。考查动词。Jim 给偶像写信,自然期待对方能够有所回应。“respond”表示 “回应;
回复”,符合他写信后希望得到反馈的心理;“repay”意为 “偿还”,“bother” 表
示 “打扰”,“intervene”表示 “干预”, 均不符合语境。
45. D。考查形容词。根据后文“Mike might write back”可知,Jim 内心有一部分是抱有希望
的,认为偶像可能会回信。“hopeful”准确描述了他对收到回信的积极预期;“gentle”
表示“温和的”,“generous”意为“慷慨的”,“lucky”表示“幸运的”,都不能
体现他对偶像回信的期待心理。
46. C。考查名词。从后文“open it”以及“a two - page handwritten letter”可知,他看到的是
一个装有信件的物品。“envelope” 表示 “信封”,是信件的常见载体,符合打开
英语答案 第 7 页 共 10 页
后取出信件的描述;“label”意为 “标签”,“poster” 表示 “海报”,“postcard”
意为“明信片”,都不符合信件被封装在其中的情景。
47. B。考查形容词。收到偶像的回信, Jim 应该是感到震惊的。“stunned”意为“震惊的;
目瞪口呆的”,能够体现他意外收到回信时的强烈情绪;“greedy”表示“贪婪的”,
“unaware”意为“未察觉的”,“relaxed” 表示 “放松的”, 均不符合语境。
48. A。考查动词短语。此处描述他从信封中取出信件的动作,“pull out” 表示 “抽出;取
出”,符合从信封中拿出信件的行为逻辑;“handed out”意为“分发”,“sent out”
表示“分发”,“threw out”意为“扔掉”,均与从信封中取出信件的动作不符。
49. A。考查名词。根据后文“about playing hockey and personal words of advice”可知,Liut
在信中提供了关于打曲棍球的相关内容。“tips” 表示 “建议;提示”,与 “advice”
语义相近,符合信件中给予指导的语境;“terms” 意为 “条款”,“facilities”表
示“设施”,“opportunities”意为“机会”,都不符合信件中提供建议的内容。
50. C。考查动词。结合语境,Liut 在信中鼓励 Jim,强调自我满足的重要性。“satisfy” 表
示 “使满意;满足”,“The only person you have to satisfy is yourself” 表达了 “唯
一需要满足的人是你自己”,符合激励的语义;“blame” 意为 “责备”,“forgive”
表示 “原谅”,“measure”意为“衡量”,都与句子表达的自我成长与满足的逻辑
不符。
51. A。考查名词。根据后文“he was a lost soul”可知,当时 Jim 的生活处于混乱和迷茫的
状态。“chaos”表示“混乱;无序”,能够准确描述他内心的迷茫与生活的无序;
“memories”意为“回忆”,“adventures”表示“冒险”,“promise”意为“承诺”,
都与他 “迷失自我”的状态不匹配。
52. B。考查动词。此处将 Liut 的回信对 Jim 的影响比喻为给电池充电,象征着重新赋予他
动力。“charging”表示“充电”,符合“使没电的电池恢复能量”的比喻义;“checking”
意为“检查”,“sharing” 表示 “分享”,“repairing” 意为 “修理”,都无法
体现 “给予能量、激励” 的含义,所以答案是 B。
53. D。考查副词。Liut 的回信对 Jim 产生了巨大的激励作用,他的成绩应该是有显著提升。
“dramatically” 表示 “显著地;戏剧性地”,突出了成绩变化的程度。
54. D。考查名词。根据后文 “35 years” 可知,此处描述的是一个较长的时间跨度。“decades”
表示“数十年”,“four decades”与“35 years”在时间上相符。
55. A。考查动词短语搭配。“pay it forward” 是固定短语,意为 “传递善意;让爱延续”,
Jim 通过参与慈善、帮助年轻人来回报社会,符合这一短语的含义。
第二节
语篇类型:说明文 主题语境:人与自然
文章大意:报道最近出现的“七星连珠”现象。
56. occurred考查动词时态。根据时间状语“on February 28, 2025”可知,此处描述过去发生
的事情,需用一般过去时,“occur”的过去式为“occurred”。
57. a考查冠词。“in a straight line”为固定短语,意为“成一条直线”,此处表示土星、水
星等七颗行星排成一条直线,故填不定冠词“a”。
58. is rooted考查动词时态与固定搭配。“be rooted in”为固定短语,意为“植根于”,此处
陈述客观事实,用一般现在时;主语“Respect for the cosmos and nature”是单数概念,
所以 be动词用 is,故填“is rooted”。
59. as 考查介词。“dramatize...as...”为固定搭配,意为“把…… 渲染为……”,此处指一
些网络平台将这一天文现象渲染成“千年一遇的宇宙能量汇聚”,故填“as”。
60. concentration考查名词。根据形容词“relative”可知,此处需填名词作主语;“concentrate”
的名词形式为“concentration”,表示“集中;聚集”,故填 “concentration”。
61. negatively 考查副词。此处需用副词修饰动词“affecting”;“negative”的副词形式为
“negatively”,表示“负面地”,故填“negatively”。
英语答案 第 8 页 共 10 页
62. combined 考查非谓语动词。此处需用形容词化的过去分词作定语修饰“gravitational
influence”;“combined”意为“联合的;组合的”,表示这些行星“组合起来的”
引力影响,故填“combined”。
63. that考查代词。此处用“that”指代前文的“the gravitational influence”,用于比较结构中
避免重复;因“influence”为不可数名词,所以用“that”指代,而不用“those”(指
代复数名词)。
64. because考查连词。前文提到肉眼通常只能看到金星、木星和火星,后文解释原因是天王
星和海王星不够明亮、土星离太阳太近,“This is because...”为固定句型,用于说明
原因,故填“because”。
65. hoping考查非谓语动词。“astronomy enthusiasts”与“hope”之间为主动关系,此处用
现在分词短语“hoping to see more planets”作后置定语,修饰“enthusiasts”,相当于
定语从句“who hope to see more planets”,故填“hoping”。
