A
Most garden-related activities-pulling out weeds, planting new seedlings and harvesting a bunch of flowers, fruits and vegetables-are highly valued. But intentionally designing your garden space can provide even more benefits. This program will help turn your healing garden ideas into reality.
Materials
Drawing or graph paper
Colored pencils and markers
A drawing board
Guided Steps
Decide what type to design. Do you want to grow medicinal plants or plants providing nutrient-rich produce? Do you like your garden to relieve stress by offering opportunities for movement and activity?
Visit an outdoor space where you would like to place your healing garden. Take notes about the size of the space and how much sunlight is available. If a personal garden is not feasible (可行的) at this time, you can search out your community for accessible green spaces.
Use your ideas to draw a design for your healing garden on paper. Don’t forget garden decorations like bird feeders and baths!
Suggested Design Elements
A sitting area. This could be a place to relax, read, or talk. It should be comfortable to sit in and shaded from hot sun.
A digging bed. For some young gardeners, being active is what helps them feel calm and focused. A digging bed is a space left unplanted for continual digging fun.
Stone pathways. They add to the calming atmosphere of the garden, not only providing visual appeal but also creating a sense of harmony with nature.
Creative containers. Short on space? Container gardens are for you! You can plant a mobile garden in pots, planters and hanging baskets.
1. What is the aim of this program?
A. To build an organic farm. B. To develop a health center.
C. To design a healing garden. D. To conduct a botanical study.
2. What are participants recommended to do?
A. Locate a herb garden.
B. Record the plants they visit.
C. Prioritize a personal garden.
D. Ask local communities for help.
3. Which can be used to help save the garden space?
A A sitting area. B. A digging bed.
C. Stone pathways. D. Creative containers.
【答案】1. C 2. C 3. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了一个关于打造治愈花园的项目,旨在通过有意设计花园空间带来更多益处。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“This program will help turn your healing garden ideas into reality.(这个程序将帮助你把你的治疗花园的想法变成现实。)”可知,该项目的目的是帮助设计一个治愈花园。其他选项(建立有机农场、开发健康中心、进行植物研究)均未提及。故选C项。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Guided Steps部分“If a personal garden is not feasible at this time, you can search out your community for accessible green spaces.(如果在这个时候个人花园是不可行的,你可以在你的社区寻找可访问的绿色空间。)”可知,建议参加者优先考虑设计自己的个人花园。故选C项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据Suggested Design Elements部分的最后一段“Creative containers. Short on space? Container gardens are for you! You can plant a mobile garden in pots, planters and hanging baskets.( 创造性的容器。空间不够用?集装箱花园是为你准备的!你可以在花盆、花盆和吊篮里种植一个移动花园。)”可知,创造性地利用各种容器可以建造容器花园,进而节省花园空间。故选D项。
B
A previously unknown piece of music composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was recently uncovered at a library in Germany, researchers with the Leipzig Municipal Library said in a statement.
The newly discovered Serenade in C is a work made up of seven tiny pieces for a string trio (三重奏) and lasting around 12 minutes. It was uncovered in the collection of the Leipzig Municipal Library while researchers were working on a new edition of the Kochel Catalogue (目录) of Mozart’s works. Every couple of decades, researchers will include new works, revisions, and other changes that Mozart scholars discover over the years.
The new work appears to have been written early in Mozart’s life. The work’s date of 1780 would position it in the productive composer’s mid-20s, but stylistically, the work shares characteristics with Mozart’s pieces from his pre-teenage years. The signature of “Wolfgang Mozart” instead of “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart” is another clue; Mozart didn’t start signing works with his middle name until he was 13 years old.
In his early years Mozart wrote many chamber works like Serenade in C, which is classical music written for a small number of instruments. Mozart’s father recorded these works on a list of his son’s compositions. Most of these works were thought to have been lost to history. What makes this find especially important is that it gives new insights into Mozart’s early experiments with chamber music. Until now, the young composer has been chiefly recognized for his keyboard works, arias (咏叹调) and symphonies. This new piece showcases his early genius beyond those more familiar works.
Serenade in C was given its first recorded performance at the launch of the new Kichel Catalogue in Salzburg, September 19th, 2024. It was also played for a packed audience at the Leipzig Opera on September 21st. Three musicians played the piece again outside the opera house, where eager crowds were waiting.
4. Why did researchers complete the new edition of the Kochel Catalogue?
A. To update the Kochel Catalogue.
B. To seek for Mozart’s new works.
C. To expand the library’s collection.
D. To promote Mozart’s achievements.
5. What can be concluded about the new work from Mozart?
A. It is unique to him in style. B. It was produced in his 20s.
C. It was signed in his full name. D. It was written in his early teens.
6. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?
A. The significance of the new discovery.
B. Mozart’s preference for chamber music.
C. Mozart’s close cooperation with his father.
D. The reasons for Mozart not being fully recognized.
7. What was the audience’s reaction to the performance of the new masterpiece?
A. Relieved. B. Confused.
C. Enthusiastic. D. Indifferent.
【答案】4. A 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是新闻报道。文章介绍了最近德国莱比锡市立图书馆发现了一首莫扎特少年时期创作的音乐作品——《C大调小夜曲》。这是一首弦乐三重奏,由七个小乐章组成,长约12分钟。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句“Every couple of decades, researchers will include new works, revisions, and other changes that Mozart scholars discover over the years.(每隔几十年,研究人员就会收录研究莫扎特的学者多年来发现的新作品、修订版和其他变化)”可知,几十年研究人员一直在这样做,发现莫扎特的新作品就对这个目录进行更新,所以这次完成最新版本的莫扎特作品目录是也为了对其进行升级更新。故选A项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The work’s date of 1780 would position it in the productive composer’s mid-20s, but stylistically, the work shares characteristics with Mozart’s pieces from his pre-teenage years. The signature of “Wolfgang Mozart” instead of “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart” is another clue; Mozart didn’t start signing works with his middle name until he was 13 years old.(该作品的创作时间为1780年,将其定位于这位多产的作曲家25岁左右,但在风格上,该作品与莫扎特十几岁前的作品有共同的特点。签名“沃尔夫冈·莫扎特”而不是“沃尔夫冈·阿玛迪斯·莫扎特”是另一个线索;莫扎特直到13岁才开始用他的中间名签名)”可知,从曲谱上1780年这个日期来看,创作时间定位在莫扎特25岁左右。但下文否定了这一说法,从风格和署名上推测可能是莫扎特13岁之前谱写的。故选D项。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“In his early years, Mozart wrote many chamber works like Serenade in C, which is classical music written for a small number of instruments. Mozart’s father recorded these works on a list of his son’s compositions. Most of these works were thought to have been lost to history. What makes this find especially important is that it gives new insights into Mozart’s early experiments with chamber music. Until now, the young composer has been chiefly recognized for his keyboard works, arias (咏叹调) and symphonies. This new piece showcases his early genius beyond those more familiar works.(莫扎特早年创作了许多室内乐作品,如《C小夜曲》,这是为少数乐器创作的古典音乐。莫扎特的父亲把这些作品记录在他儿子的作品清单上。这些作品大多被认为已失传于历史。这一发现尤其重要的是,它为莫扎特早期的室内乐实验提供了新的见解。到目前为止,这位年轻的作曲家主要以他的键盘作品、咏叹调和交响曲而闻名。这部新作品展示了他早期的天才,超越了那些更熟悉的作品)”可知,莫扎特早年创作的许多室内乐作品大多已失传,这首新发现的作品展示了他青少年时期的音乐天赋,具有重要意义。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It was also played for a packed audience at the Leipzig Opera on September 21st. Three musicians played the piece again outside the opera house, where eager crowds were waiting.(9月21日,它还在莱比锡歌剧院上演,观众爆满。三位音乐家在歌剧院外再次演奏了这首曲子,急切的人群在那里等待着)”可知,观众对这首曲子的演奏充满热情、非常期待。故选C项。
C
My Penguin Friend is what you’d expect from an animal picture. Except that it’s better—lifted by a smart screenplay, sensitive direction and a truly beautiful performance by Jean Reno.
It’s based on a real-life event that happened about 15 years ago in a small village in Brazil. A retired fisherman named Joau, rescued a Magellanic penguin who’d been covered in oil following a tanker oil spill (泄漏). He cleaned up the penguin and nursed him back to full health with a daily diet of fish. After some months, the penguin went back into the water and continued his usual penguin life. But the penguin reunited with Joau again. He swam over 5,000 miles, from Patagonia to Brazil, for eight years in a row. And each time he stayed for several months.
My Penguin Friend takes that framework and decorates it with fictional elements that reflect Joau’s sadness. Joau, played by Jean Reno, has been saddened many years over his late son. This has become a hidden barrier between him and the world, but something about caring for this animal brings a part of him back to life.
Something in the way director David Schurmann films the penguin brings out the animal’s essential dignity. At heart, My Penguin Friend is about the dignity of all species of living things, and it’s a call to humanity to do right by the animals with whom we share the planet. It’s not only about what people should do for animals, but about what animals do for us and how they can reconnect us with the natural world.
My Penguin Friend might not hold the interest of younger viewers. There’s a whole subplot centering on a penguin research team that really eats into the runtime without being all that appealing. While its rigid dialogue and stretches of awkward silence might not bother younger viewers the way it bothers me, they certainly impact the pacing, inviting restlessness and phone-checking. But it builds in emotion and becomes genuinely heart-warming.
8. What is My Penguin Friend mainly about?
A. A rescue of an oil-covered penguin.
B. A man’s deep friendship with a penguin.
C. A call for humans to protect wild animals.
D. A team’s extensive research into penguins.
9. What can we learn about Joau from paragraph 3?
A. He regretted releasing the penguin too early.
B. He pleased his son by raising the penguin.
C. He had some misunderstanding of folks.
D. He took great comfort from the penguin.
10. What does the author think of My Penguin Friend?
A. It is lacking in pace. B. It is full of surprises.
C. It takes too long to play. D. It has too much dialogue.
11. What type of writing is the text?
A. A news report. B. A movie review.
C. A children’s story. D. A documentary advert.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要介绍了电影My Penguin Friend的剧情、创作背景及导演意图。影片以巴西渔民救助麦哲伦企鹅的真实事件为框架,融入虚构元素展现主人公Joau与企鹅的情感联结,呼吁人类尊重自然,同时指出影片节奏拖沓等问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It’s based on a real-life event that happened about 15 years ago in a small village in Brazil. A retired fisherman named Joau, rescued a Magellanic penguin who’d been covered in oil following a tanker oil spill (泄漏). He cleaned up the penguin and nursed him back to full health with a daily diet of fish. After some months, the penguin went back into the water and continued his usual penguin life. But the penguin reunited with Joau again. He swam over 5,000 miles, from Patagonia to Brazil, for eight years in a row.(这部电影基于大约15年前发生在巴西一个小村庄的真实事件。一位名叫乔au(Joau)的退休渔夫,救了一只在油轮泄漏后被油污覆盖的麦哲伦企鹅。他清理了这只企鹅,并通过每天喂食鱼类使其完全恢复健康。几个月后,这只企鹅回到了水中,继续它平常的企鹅生活。但后来,这只企鹅又与乔au重逢了。它连续八年从巴塔哥尼亚游了超过5000英里回到巴西)”可知,电影以Joau与企鹅的真实互动为框架,展现二者跨越物种的深厚情谊。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Joau, played by Jean Reno, has been saddened many years over his late son. This has become a hidden barrier between him and the world, but something about caring for this animal brings a part of him back to life.(由让·雷诺(Jean Reno)饰演的乔au,多年来一直为逝去的儿子而哀伤。这已然成为他与世界之间的一道隐秘屏障,但照顾这只动物的经历,让他生命的一部分重新复苏了)”可知,企鹅的陪伴让因丧子而封闭的Joau重新感受到生命的意义,企鹅成为他情感的寄托。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“There’s a whole subplot centering on a penguin research team that really eats into the runtime without being all that appealing. While its rigid dialogue and stretches of awkward silence might not bother younger viewers the way it bothers me, they certainly impact the pacing, inviting restlessness and phone-checking.(影片中有一个围绕企鹅研究团队展开的完整副线情节,着实占用了不少时长,却并不那么引人入胜。虽说它那刻板的对话以及时不时出现的尴尬沉默,可能不会像困扰我这样去影响年轻观众,但它们无疑对影片节奏造成了影响,让人坐立不安,忍不住去看手机)”可知,作者批评影片次要情节冗长、对话僵硬、沉默片段尴尬,对影片节奏造成了影响,让人坐立不安,忍不住去看手机,可推理出作者认为影片的次要情节节奏拖沓,易使观众分心。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“My Penguin Friend is what you’d expect from an animal picture. Except that it’s better—lifted by a smart screenplay, sensitive direction and a truly beautiful performance by Jean Reno.(《我的企鹅朋友》就是那种动物题材影片该有的样子,而且更为出色——凭借巧妙的剧本、细腻的执导以及让·雷诺极为精彩的演绎而更上一层楼)”、第二段介绍电影内容、第四段主题以及第五段“My Penguin Friend might not hold the interest of younger viewers. There’s a whole subplot centering on a penguin research team that really eats into the runtime without being all that appealing. While its rigid dialogue and stretches of awkward silence might not bother younger viewers the way it bothers me, they certainly impact the pacing, inviting restlessness and phone-checking. But it builds in emotion and becomes genuinely heart-warming(《我的企鹅朋友》可能不太能吸引年轻观众的兴趣。影片中有一个围绕企鹅研究团队展开的完整副线情节,着实占用了不少时长,却并不那么引人入胜。虽说它那刻板的对话以及时不时出现的尴尬沉默,可能不会像困扰我这样去影响年轻观众,但它们无疑对影片节奏造成了影响,让人坐立不安,忍不住去看手机。不过,这部电影在情感层面逐渐铺陈开来,最终变得十分暖心)”可知,全文围绕电影My Penguin Friend展开,分析其剧情来源、主题表达、优缺点等,符合影评的典型结构。故选B项。
D
Trying to convince kids to eat their foods can be a struggle and parents tend to blame themselves or to be blamed by others. But a new study found that being a picky eater isn’t a temporary phase-it’s in the genes.
The study involved more than 2,000 pairs of both identical and non-identical twins born in 2007 and based in England and Wales. Parents answered questions about their children’s eating behaviors from the ages of 16 months to 13 years old. They found that non-identical twins showed different eating behaviors than identical twins, suggesting a genetic influence, while other factors, such as the types of foods eaten at home and where meals are eaten, may only be significant when the child is a toddler (学步幼儿). The research also found that food pickiness tends to peak when a child is seven years old, often declining slightly until they become teenagers.
Most identical twins share 100% of their genetic material, while non-identical twins share 50%, which meant the researchers could compare genetic and environmental influences on food pickiness across both groups and draw inferences from this.
“Picky eating often causes a lot of stress for the children and their families,” Moritz Herle, one of the study’s lead authors, said. “We hope our finding will help to alleviate some of the blame directed at parents. This behavior is not a result of parenting.”
The study found that food pickiness starts during toddler years. This could mean that if children are picky at this age, early interventions to help them learn to eat a wider range of food could reduce their pickiness in the future. Parents should model healthy eating habits and avoid offering children food as a reward for eating disliked foods, as this could create a negative association.
12. What contributes most to kids’ picky eating according to the study?
A. Genes. B. Parenting.
C. Their unique experiences. D. Their family backgrounds.
13. Why were the twins chosen as study samples?
A. They were widely distributed.
B. They were easy to compare by the age.
C. They received home education much alike.
D. They shared similar genes and environments.
14. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Deserve. B. Accept. C. Ease. D. Shift.
15. How does the author close the text?
A. By giving a summary. B. By making suggestions.
C. By introducing a new topic. D. By analyzing the study limitations.
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。最新研究揭示,孩子的挑食行为在很大程度上是由基因决定的。相比之下,家庭用餐环境等外在因素,其影响力在孩子蹒跚学步的初期才开始显现,但随着年龄增长,其作用逐渐淡化。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“But a new study found that being a picky eater isn’t a temporary phase-it’s in the genes.(但一项新的研究发现,挑食不是暂时的,而是基因决定的。)”及第二段对双胞胎的研究结论可知,基因是导致孩子挑食的主要原因。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Most identical twins share 100% of their genetic material, while non-identical twins share 50%, which meant the researchers could compare genetic and environmental influences on food pickiness across both groups and draw inferences from this.(大多数同卵双胞胎的遗传物质是100%相同的,而异卵双胞胎的遗传物质是50%相同的,这意味着研究人员可以比较遗传和环境对两组人挑食的影响,并从中得出推论。)”可知,第三段指出,同卵双胞胎基因完全相同,异卵双胞胎共享 50% 基因,研究通过对比两组在相似环境中的饮食行为差异,区分基因与环境的影响。因此,选择双胞胎作为样本是因其基因和成长环境具有可比性。故选D项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第四段中““Picky eating often causes a lot of stress for the children and their families,” Moritz Herle, one of the study’s lead authors, said. “We hope our finding will help to alleviate some of the blame directed at parents. This behavior is not a result of parenting.”(该研究的主要作者之一莫里茨·赫尔说:“挑食通常会给孩子和他们的家庭带来很大的压力。”“我们希望我们的发现能帮助……一些针对父母的指责。这种行为不是父母教育的结果。”)”可知,研究希望帮助“减轻”家长因孩子挑食而受到的指责(“alleviate some of the blame”),C选项“ease”(缓解)与“alleviate”语义最接近。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This could mean that if children are picky at this age, early interventions to help them learn to eat a wider range of food could reduce their pickiness in the future. Parents should model healthy eating habits and avoid offering children food as a reward for eating disliked foods, as this could create a negative association.(这可能意味着,如果孩子在这个年龄段挑食,早期干预帮助他们学会吃更广泛食物可以减少他们未来的挑食。父母应该树立健康的饮食习惯,避免给孩子提供食物作为吃不喜欢的食物的奖励,因为这可能会产生负面的联想。)”可知,最后一段提出“早期干预”和“家长示范健康饮食习惯” 等具体建议,如“Parents should model healthy eating habits and avoid offering children food as a reward...”,表明作者以建议收尾。故选B项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
The proverb “Prevention is better than cure.” is one of those timeless pieces of wisdom. It’s essentially saying that taking care of the small things now can save us from bigger problems later. It’s a simple concept.____16____
One of the most obvious places where this proverb rings true is in health. It is much easier to maintain a healthy lifestyle than it is to deal with illness. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep habits are all preventive measures.____17____Once a health problem like heart disease sets in, the “cure” is much more complicated and costly. In fact, many chronic illnesses (慢性病) are preventable with the right habits.
____18____Often, we ignore signs of stress, anxiety, or burnout until they become most serious. By taking steps to manage stress—whether through mindfulness practice or recreational activities—you can prevent a full-on mental health crisis. In this sense, prevention is also a form of self-care that can lead to a more balanced richer life.
Why don’t we always follow this proverb? One reason could be that prevention requires planning and foresight, which can be difficult when life gets busy.____19____When something doesn’t go wrong, it’s hard to see the value in the steps you have taken to avoid it. But once we start thinking of prevention as an investment in our future well-being, it gets easier to make it a priority.
____20____The next time you catch yourself thinking, “I’ll deal with that later,” stop for a second and ask yourself: would a little bit of prevention now save me a whole lot of trouble later?
A. So, bring the proverb into your daily life.
B. They can help you avoid serious health issues.
C. The same logic applies to our psychological health.
D. They are what maintain a healthy relationship with others.
E. Another reason is that the benefits of prevention are often invisible.
F. Also, it’s human nature to hope things will fix magically themselves.
G. However, its significance becomes clear in almost every aspect of our life.
【答案】16. G 17. B 18. C 19. E 20. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要论述了“预防优于补救”的重要性,建议人们要把这个谚语的智慧运用到日常生活中。
【16题详解】
根据上文“It’s essentially saying that taking care of the small things now can save us from bigger problems later. It’s a simple concept.( 它的本质是说,现在处理好小事情可以避免以后更大的问题。这是一个简单的概念)”提到它是一个简单的概念。G选项However, its significance becomes clear in almost every aspect of our life.( 然而,它的重要性在我们生活的几乎每个方面都是显而易见的)与上文构成转折关系,即虽然道理简单但非常实用,且引出下面两段内容。故选G。
【17题详解】
根据上文“One of the most obvious places where this proverb rings true is in health. It is much easier to maintain a healthy lifestyle than it is to deal with illness. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep habits are all preventive measures.(这句谚语最明显的适用领域之一是健康方面。维持健康的生活方式远比应对疾病容易得多。定期锻炼、均衡饮食和良好的睡眠习惯均属于预防措施)”可知,第二段围绕健康展开,前句提到预防措施(锻炼、饮食等),B选项They can help you avoid serious health issues. (它们能帮助避免严重健康问题)说明这些措施的作用,与后文“疾病发生后难以治愈”形成对比,逻辑连贯。故选B项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“Often, we ignore signs of stress, anxiety, or burnout until they become most serious. By taking steps to manage stress—whether through mindfulness practice or recreational activities—you can prevent a full-on mental health crisis. In this sense, prevention is also a form of self-care that can lead to a more balanced richer life.( 通常,我们忽略了压力、焦虑或倦怠的迹象,直到它们变得最严重。通过采取措施来管理压力,无论是通过正念练习还是娱乐活动,你都可以预防一场全面的心理健康危机。从这个意义上说,预防也是一种自我保健,可以带来更平衡、更丰富的生活)”可知,第三段转向心理健康,C选项The same logic applies to our psychological health.( 同样的逻辑适用于心理健康)符合语境,引出压力管理等心理预防内容。故选C项。
【19题详解】
根据上文“One reason could be that prevention requires planning and foresight, which can be difficult when life gets busy.( 一个原因可能是预防需要计划和远见,当生活变得忙碌时,这可能很困难)”推知,空处应陈述另外的原因,E选项Another reason is that the benefits of prevention are often invisible. (另一个原因是预防的好处往往隐形)符合语境。故选E项。

39. earliest
40. of 41. to explain
42. himself
43. celebrity
44. committed
45. and
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了德国从业者Joel Mikael Walker在郑州学习中医,并致力于传播中医智慧和中国文化的故事。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在河南省郑州市一家中医院经常看病的当地人,经常会惊讶于一位擅长拔罐和针灸的德国医生为他们治疗。空处作后置定语,使用非谓语动词,因practitioner与specialize之间为逻辑上的主谓关系,使用现在分词形式,故填specializing。
【37题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:Joel Mikael Walker在2015年,也就是他20岁的时候来到河南省,因为那里被广泛认为是中医医疗、教育和研究的重要中心。本句为包含定语从句的复合句,先行词为2015,在非限制性定语从句中作状语表示时间,故用关系副词when引导从句,填when。
【38题详解】
考查被动语态。句意:经过一年的强化汉语学习,他被河南中医药大学录取,这是中国最早开设此类专业的大学之一。主语he与谓语动词admit之间为被动关系,使用被动语态,且动作发生在过去,用一般过去时的被动语态,主语为第三人称单数,故填was admitted。
【39题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:同上。根据下文“in China(在中国)”可知此处表示的是在中国范围内比较,使用最高级,且“one of the + 形容词最高级 + 名词复数”为固定短语,表示“最……的……之一”,符合语境,故填earliest。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:现在他完全有能力独立执业,并且经常用中国古代医学文献来解释治疗背后的理念。be capable of doing为固定短语,意为“有能力做……”,故填of。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:同上。空处作目的状语,用动词不定式,故填to explain。
【42题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:Walker不仅投身于中医学习,还对当地文化进行了研究。空白处在句子中作宾语,involve oneself in 为固定短语,意为“投身于……”,所以空白处使用反身代词,主语为Walker,故填himself。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:他现在是中国社交媒体平台上的网红,拥有超过一百万粉丝。空白处在句子中作表语表示内容,使用名词,根据上文“He is now an online(他现在是线上……)”可知空白处应填指人的名词,且使用单数形式,“celebrate”的指人的名词形式为celebrity,故填celebrity。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:他在镜头前说着流利的河南方言,致力于推广中医和普及当地习俗。“be committed to” 为固定短语,意为“致力于”,此处使用过去分词短语作状语,故填committed。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:Walker 说:“我希望尽一切努力,把中医的智慧和中国文化传播给我身边的人和西方人。”根据上文“the wisdom of TCM (中医的智慧)”与下文“Chinese culture(中国文化)”可知,上下文之间为并列关系,应使用并列连词and,故填and。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a remote small village situated between rolling hills, there lived a young woman named Elara. From a very young age, she had a passion for drawing. She dreamed of becoming a well-known painter. She spent every waking moment practicing her art, hoping that one day, her paintings would bring joy to others.
Elara’s parents, however, were practical people like other villagers, who valued hard work and concrete results. They often told Elara to focus on something more “useful”. But Elara’s heart was set upon being a painter and nothing else could please her. So she was allowed to have it her own way and continue her painting.
One year, a grand art competition was announced in the nearby city. The winner would receive a high scholarship to study art abroad. Elara knew this was her chance. She concentrated on creating a masterpiece, staying up late into the night, driven by her passion and determination.
When the day of the competition arrived, Elara’s heart was filled with hope. She travelled to the city with her painting, confident of her work. However, doubt began to develop as she walked into the grand hall filled with beautiful artworks. The other paintings were splendid, created by artists with far more experience and resources than she had. Despite her initial excitement, Elara’s painting did not win. She watched as others celebrated, her heart heavy with disappointment, and her dream seemingly broken.
After she returned to her village, Elara couldn’t bring herself to pick up a brush. She avoided the villagers, afraid of their pitying looks and whispered words.
One evening, as she sat by the river, a gentle voice broke her reverie (幻想). It was an old man from the village, known for his wisdom. He was invited by Elara’s parents to help her. “Why do you look so down, child?” the man asked. Elara poured out her heart, sharing her fears and disappointments. The old man listened patiently.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Do you know why the river never stops flowing?” the old man asked.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, Elara picked up her brush again.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 “Do you know why the river never stops flowing?” the old man asked. “Because it doesn’t give up,” the old man said. “It faces obstacles, but it finds a way around them. It doesn’t matter how often it is blocked; it keeps moving forward. Your dreams are like this river. As long as you don’t give up, you will find a way.” Elara thought about the old man’s words carefully before she nodded in approval. She decided to embrace her failure as lessons and continue to work hard.
The next day, Elara picked up her brush again. She painted with renewed energy, not for the sake of winning but for the love of her art. She identified her weakest art skills and tried to improve them by studying the works of other artists. She also managed to buy some art books to help her learn new art skills. After a few years’ practice, Elara’s efforts paid off. Her paintings began to attract attention in her village and beyond. She eventually got the scholarship she had once dreamed of, but more importantly, she learned the true meaning of determination and persistence.

Most garden-related activities-pulling out weeds, planting new seedlings and harvesting a bunch of flowers, fruits and vegetables-are highly valued. But intentionally designing your garden space can provide even more benefits. This program will help turn your healing garden ideas into reality.
Materials
Drawing or graph paper
Colored pencils and markers
A drawing board
Guided Steps
Decide what type to design. Do you want to grow medicinal plants or plants providing nutrient-rich produce? Do you like your garden to relieve stress by offering opportunities for movement and activity?
Visit an outdoor space where you would like to place your healing garden. Take notes about the size of the space and how much sunlight is available. If a personal garden is not feasible (可行的) at this time, you can search out your community for accessible green spaces.
Use your ideas to draw a design for your healing garden on paper. Don’t forget garden decorations like bird feeders and baths!
Suggested Design Elements
A sitting area. This could be a place to relax, read, or talk. It should be comfortable to sit in and shaded from hot sun.
A digging bed. For some young gardeners, being active is what helps them feel calm and focused. A digging bed is a space left unplanted for continual digging fun.
Stone pathways. They add to the calming atmosphere of the garden, not only providing visual appeal but also creating a sense of harmony with nature.
Creative containers. Short on space? Container gardens are for you! You can plant a mobile garden in pots, planters and hanging baskets.
1. What is the aim of this program?
A. To build an organic farm. B. To develop a health center.
C. To design a healing garden. D. To conduct a botanical study.
2. What are participants recommended to do?
A. Locate a herb garden.
B. Record the plants they visit.
C. Prioritize a personal garden.
D. Ask local communities for help.
3. Which can be used to help save the garden space?
A. A sitting area. B. A digging bed.
C. Stone pathways. D. Creative containers.

A previously unknown piece of music composed by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart was recently uncovered at a library in Germany, researchers with the Leipzig Municipal Library said in a statement.
The newly discovered Serenade in C is a work made up of seven tiny pieces for a string trio (三重奏) and lasting around 12 minutes. It was uncovered in the collection of the Leipzig Municipal Library while researchers were working on a new edition of the Kochel Catalogue (目录) of Mozart’s works. Every couple of decades, researchers will include new works, revisions, and other changes that Mozart scholars discover over the years.
The new work appears to have been written early in Mozart’s life. The work’s date of 1780 would position it in the productive composer’s mid-20s, but stylistically, the work shares characteristics with Mozart’s pieces from his pre-teenage years. The signature of “Wolfgang Mozart” instead of “Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart” is another clue; Mozart didn’t start signing works with his middle name until he was 13 years old.
In his early years, Mozart wrote many chamber works like Serenade in C, which is classical music written for a small number of instruments. Mozart’s father recorded these works on a list of his son’s compositions. Most of these works were thought to have been lost to history. What makes this find especially important is that it gives new insights into Mozart’s early experiments with chamber music. Until now, the young composer has been chiefly recognized for his keyboard works, arias (咏叹调) and symphonies. This new piece showcases his early genius beyond those more familiar works.
Serenade in C was given its first recorded performance at the launch of the new Kichel Catalogue in Salzburg, September 19th, 2024. It was also played for a packed audience at the Leipzig Opera on September 21st. Three musicians played the piece again outside the opera house, where eager crowds were waiting.
4. Why did researchers complete the new edition of the Kochel Catalogue?
A. To update the Kochel Catalogue.
B. To seek for Mozart’s new works.
C. To expand the library’s collection.
D. To promote Mozart’s achievements.
5. What can be concluded about the new work from Mozart?
A. It is unique to him in style. B. It was produced in his 20s.
C. It was signed in his full name. D. It was written in his early teens.
6. What does the author intend to tell us in paragraph 4?

My Penguin Friend is what you’d expect from an animal picture. Except that it’s better—lifted by a smart screenplay sensitive direction and a truly beautiful performance by Jean Reno.
It’s based on a real-life event that happened about 15 years ago in a small village in Brazil. A retired fisherman named Joau, rescued a Magellanic penguin who’d been covered in oil following a tanker oil spill (泄漏). He cleaned up the penguin and nursed him back to full health with a daily diet of fish. After some months, the penguin went back into the water and continued his usual penguin life. But the penguin reunited with Joau again. He swam over 5,000 miles, from Patagonia to Brazil, for eight years in a row. And each time he stayed for several months.
My Penguin Friend takes that framework and decorates it with fictional elements that reflect Joau’s sadness. Joau, played by Jean Reno, has been saddened many years over his late son. This has become a hidden barrier between him and the world, but something about caring for this animal brings a part of him back to life.
Something in the way director David Schurmann films the penguin brings out the animal’s essential dignity. At heart, My Penguin Friend is about the dignity of all species of living things, and it’s a call to humanity to do right by the animals with whom we share the planet. It’s not only about what people should do for animals, but about what animals do for us and how they can reconnect us with the natural world.
My Penguin Friend might not hold the interest of younger viewers. There’s a whole subplot centering on a penguin research team that really eats into the runtime without being all that appealing. While its rigid dialogue and stretches of awkward silence might not bother younger viewers the way it bothers me, they certainly impact the pacing, inviting restlessness and phone-checking. But it builds in emotion and becomes genuinely heart-warming.
8. What is My Penguin Friend mainly about?
A. A rescue of an oil-covered penguin.
B. A man’s deep friendship with a penguin.
C. A call for humans to protect wild animals.
D. A team’s extensive research into penguins.
9. What can we learn about Joau from paragraph 3?
A. He regretted releasing the penguin too early.
B. He pleased his son by raising the penguin.
C. He had some misunderstanding of folks.
D. He took great comfort from the penguin.
10. What does the author think of My Penguin Friend?
A. It is lacking in pace. B. It is full of surprises.
C. It takes too long to play. D. It has too much dialogue.
11. What type of writing is the text?
A. A news report. B. A movie review.
C. A children’s story. D. A documentary advert.

Trying to convince kids to eat their foods can be a struggle and parents tend to blame themselves or to be blamed by others. But a new study found that being a picky eater isn’t a temporary phase-it’s in the genes.
The study involved more than 2,000 pairs of both identical and non-identical twins born in 2007 and based in England and Wales. Parents answered questions about their children’s eating behaviors from the ages of 16 months to 13 years old. They found that non-identical twins showed different eating behaviors than identical twins, suggesting a genetic influence, while other factors, such as the types of foods eaten at home and where meals are eaten, may only be significant when the child is a toddler (学步幼儿). The research also found that food pickiness tends to peak when a child is seven years old, often declining slightly until they become teenagers.
Most identical twins share 100% of their genetic material, while non-identical twins share 50%, which meant the researchers could compare genetic and environmental influences on food pickiness across both groups and draw inferences from this.
“Picky eating often causes a lot of stress for the children and their families,” Moritz Herle, one of the study’s lead authors, said. “We hope our finding will help to alleviate some of the blame directed at parents. This behavior is not a result of parenting.”
The study found that food pickiness starts during toddler years. This could mean that if children are picky at this age, early interventions to help them learn to eat a wider range of food could reduce their pickiness in the future. Parents should model healthy eating habits and avoid offering children food as a reward for eating disliked foods, as this could create a negative association.
12. What contributes most to kids’ picky eating according to the study?
A. Genes. B. Parenting.
C. Their unique experiences. D. Their family backgrounds.
13. Why were the twins chosen as study samples?
A. They were widely distributed.
B. They were easy to compare by the age.
C. They received home education much alike.
D. They shared similar genes and environments.
14. What does the underlined word “alleviate” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Deserve. B. Accept. C. Ease. D. Shift.
15. How does the author close the text?
A. By giving a summary. B. By making suggestions.
C. By introducing a new topic. D. By analyzing the study limitations.

The proverb “Prevention is better than cure.” is one of those timeless pieces of wisdom. It’s essentially saying that taking care of the small things now can save us from bigger problems later. It’s a simple concept.____16____
One of the most obvious places where this proverb rings true is in health. It is much easier to maintain a healthy lifestyle than it is to deal with illness. Regular exercise, a balanced diet, and good sleep habits are all preventive measures.____17____Once a health problem like heart disease sets in, the “cure” is much more complicated and costly. In fact, many chronic illnesses (慢性病) are preventable with the right habits.
____18____Often, we ignore signs of stress, anxiety, or burnout until they become most serious. By taking steps to manage stress—whether through mindfulness practice or recreational activities—you can prevent a full-on mental health crisis. In this sense, prevention is also a form of self-care that can lead to a more balanced richer life.
Why don’t we always follow this proverb? One reason could be that prevention requires planning and foresight, which can be difficult when life gets busy.____19____When something doesn’t go wrong, it’s hard to see the value in the steps you have taken to avoid it. But once we start thinking of prevention as an investment in our future well-being, it gets easier to make it a priority.
____20____The next time you catch yourself thinking “I’ll deal with that later,” stop for a second and ask yourself: would a little bit of prevention now save me a whole lot of trouble later?
A. So, bring the proverb into your daily life.
B. They can help you avoid serious health issues.
C. The same logic applies to our psychological health.
D. They are what maintain a healthy relationship with others.
E. Another reason is that the benefits of prevention are often invisible.
F. Also, it’s human nature to hope things will fix magically themselves.
G. However, its significance becomes clear in almost every aspect of our life.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In a remote small village situated between rolling hills, there lived a young woman named Elara. From a very young age, she had a passion for drawing. She dreamed of becoming a well-known painter. She spent every waking moment practicing her art, hoping that one day, her paintings would bring joy to others.
Elara’s parents, however, were practical people like other villagers, who valued hard work and concrete results. They often told Elara to focus on something more “useful”. But Elara’s heart was set upon being a painter and nothing else could please her. So she was allowed to have it her own way and continue her painting.
One year, a grand art competition was announced in the nearby city. The winner would receive a high scholarship to study art abroad. Elara knew this was her chance. She concentrated on creating a masterpiece, staying up late into the night, driven by her passion and determination.
When the day of the competition arrived, Elara’s heart was filled with hope. She travelled to the city with her painting, confident of her work. However, doubt began to develop as she walked into the grand hall filled with beautiful artworks. The other paintings were splendid, created by artists with far more experience and resources than she had. Despite her initial excitement, Elara’s painting did not win. She watched as others celebrated, her heart heavy with disappointment, and her dream seemingly broken.
After she returned to her village, Elara couldn’t bring herself to pick up a brush. She avoided the villagers, afraid of their pitying looks and whispered words.
One evening, as she sat by the river, a gentle voice broke her reverie (幻想). It was an old man from the village, known for his wisdom. He was invited by Elara’s parents to help her. “Why do you look so down, child?” the man asked. Elara poured out her heart, sharing her fears and disappointments. The old man listened patiently.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Do you know why the river never stops flowing?” the old man asked.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, Elara picked up her brush again.
