If you spot a lone fridge sitting on a city sidewalk, don’t quickly assume it’s just someone’s trash waiting to be taken away. There’s a good chance it’s actually full of free food, there for anyone in the neighborhood who might need it. These “community fridges” have been popping up in cities across the U. S. as more and more people struggle to get enough to eat.
Community fridges are a creative, neighborly way to fight food insecurity. They’re set up and looked after by local volunteers who want to help their communities. Volunteers gather donations from grocery stores, restaurants, and even individuals. They use social media to let people know what’s inside, what’s running low, and when new food has arrived. To keep things safe and inviting, they clean the fridges often and arrange the contents so everything is easy to see and clearly marked.
Julian Bentivegna, a chef and restaurant owner, started a community fridge this year. He told the National Post that he was surprised and happy to see how much people cared. At first, he worried there might be too many donations and not enough people taking the food, but instead, things have balanced out naturally. “We don’t police the fridges at all. We just let people take what they need and leave what they don’t,” he said.
In Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood, Pam Tietze founded the Friendly Fridge. She shared a story about a woman who once relied on soup kitchens but now can pick up fresh ingredients to cook at home, giving her more dignity and choice. “There’s the dignity of going to a fridge instead of a soup kitchen. I’m confident we’re serving those in need,” said Tietze.
Although these fridges make a real difference, it’s sad that ordinary people are left to patch up gaps in the food system — a problem that really needs government action. A quarter of New Yorkers deal with food insecurity, and about 30 percent of all food in the U. S. ends up wasted. Generous volunteers can help, but lasting change will come only from better policies and food distribution. Still, it’s heartening to see communities look after each other. If you want to help, check freedge.org or search “community fridge” online to find one in your city.
4. How does a community fridge operate?
A. It is set up by the community officials. B. Food information is spread via social media.
C. Donors mark and organize the contents. D. Volunteers help to repair a broken fridge.
5. What difference did community fridges bring to the woman according to Paragraph 4?
A. She could get more and fresher food. B. Her cooking skills were enhanced at home.
C. Her pride was prevented from being hurt. D. She found a position in the soup kitchen.
6. Why does the author feel sad?
A. The government fails to take on the duty. B. A quarter of New Yorkers are starving.
C. Food donations are severely insufficient. D. Community fridges don’t meet the expectations.
7. What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A. To advertise the website freedge.org. B. To praise the donors and volunteers.
C. To show the author’s positive attitude. D. To call for donations to the fridge project
C
Misinformation and disinformation can be a threat to our society. It can divide communities and make it harder for people to make informed choices. No one is immune. “We just don’t have the time, the cognitive resources or even the motivation to literally fact-check every piece of information that comes our way,” says Briony Swire-Thompson, director of the Psychology of Misinformation Lab at Northeastern University.
People have a whole life’s worth of experiences that affects how they engage with whatever they read online or hear on the news. So often people’s memories really shaped the ways that they engage in current ways with social systems and their media environments. Fortunately, people trust information more when it comes from sources or cultural contexts they are familiar with, so talking to your loved ones can make a difference.
Swire-Thompson says she’s found discussing sources to be an effective way to help reveal misinformation. That will help you have a conversation about who or what you both trust and why. In one study, Swire-Thompson found highlighting a source’s low expertise worked well, like pointing out the source’s lack of skills, professional training, relevant educational background, etc. You can also point out any conflicts of interest they might have. “It was far more effective than just correcting the misinformation,” says Swire-Thompson. You might want to keep that correction short, but research shows providing a “factual alternative,” or saying what is actually true, is more effective than just saying a piece of information is false.
Certainly change after one conversation is not guaranteed. These conversations are not about trying to transform someone naturally. It is more about how we can build this coexisting trust with each other and continue these types of conversations in a sustainable and healthy way. There is always this sense of urgency to say “false, I want to correct you!” But to build long-term relationships, to be able to do this on a slower scale will have a larger impact.
8. What causes people to believe in false information?
A. Lack of social engagement. B. Effect of personal experiences.
C. Threat from sources of wrong news. D. Little access to information checking.
9. What is an effective way to correct the misinformation?
A Providing professional training. B. Citing the source of information.
C. Offering the factual version of the story. D. Praising the effective news collection.
10. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A. Transforming a person’s nature is challenging.
B. Harmonious relationships beat being right.
C. False information needs urgent attention.
D. Conversations are encouraged among family.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Trust Loved Ones With Heart B. Misinformation Harms Our Society
C Correction Enhances Communication D. Remove Misinformation by Connection
D
Like rolling into a gas station during a road trip, whale sharks use oil and gas platforms as a brief stop during their migrations of thousands of kilometers across the oceans. The human-made structures attract marine life — including the sharks’ favorite snack: plankton (浮游生物). But experts worry that this attraction could put the endangered giant creatures at risk of ship strike or chemical pollution.
Satellite tracking of whale sharks off the coast of western Australia shows how oil and gas platforms influence the movements of these gentle giants, marine ecologist Ben D’ Antonio, of the Australian Institute of Marine Science and University of Western Australia, and colleagues report January 18.
“Think of seafloor features like a truck stop on a highway,” D’ Antonio says. “On a family vacation, we often pull into truck stops to fuel up and grab a quick bite before heading to our final destination. Whale sharks seem to be using seafloor features in a similar way.”
Over 14 years, the researchers tagged 78 whale sharks, tracked their movements and cross-checked the location of landform characteristics to see how these affect the sharks’ routes. While natural canyons and seamounts also act as brief stops, this attraction towards oil platforms — possibly bolstered by plankton’s attraction to the platforms’ rays of light — could put the huge animals at risk of being hit by a ship or pollution from oil spills or discharges. It’s impossible to know exactly how many are being killed by ships because their bodies sink without a sign.
The researchers hope this finding will help decision makers managing marine protected areas and raise awareness of the potential impact on marine life when human-made platforms are disused or new structures are built. “This will become more relevant as developments for renewable energy begin to add additional structure to many coastal areas,” D’ Antonio says.
12. Why do whale sharks use oil and gas platforms as a brief stop?
A. To admire the man-made structures. B. To get food attracted by the platforms.
C. To attract other species of marine life. D. To attack ships stopping at the place.
13. What risk can whale sharks meet when approaching oil and gas platforms?
A. Colliding with ships. B. Missing their snacks.
C. Being hunted by people. D. Being disturbed by tourists.
14. What does the underlined word “bolstered” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Sheltered. B. Boosted. C. Rejected. D. Polluted.
15. What role do the researchers hope this finding will play?
A. Promote the economy of coastal cities. B. Improve the stability of the gas platforms.
C Assist decision makers with structure planning. D. Help countries to upgrade energy structures.

How to Recover Effectively After Exercise
Proper recovery is as important as the workout itself. Many students push themselves hard during sports but neglect post-exercise care, which may lead to injuries or fatigue. Here are science-based strategies to maximize your recovery.
1. Cool down properly
Never skip the cool-down phase after training. A 5-10 minute slow jog or walk helps your heart rate return to normal gradually. This prevents dizziness caused by sudden stops and removes waste products from muscles. ____16____
2. Rehydrate (补水) smartly
Sweating during exercise causes fluid loss. ____17____ For intense workouts lasting over an hour, drinks containing electrolytes are recommended. Avoid sugary beverages as they may slow down hydration.
3. ____18____
During deep sleep your body releases growth hormones that repair tissues. This is when magic happens for muscle recovery. Students should aim for 7-9 hours nightly. Creating a dark, quiet sleeping environment significantly enhances recovery efficiency.
4. Try active recovery
Light activities on rest days boost blood circulation. ____19____ These low-intensity movements deliver nutrients to muscles without causing strain. Even a short walk between study sessions makes a difference.
5. Track your progress
Note down exercise duration, intensity, and how your body responds. This helps identify patterns and adjust training plans. ____20____ Many apps provide visual graphs to make tracking easier.
A. Recover your muscles.
B. Prioritize sleep quality.
C. Swimming or cycling at a gentle pace works best.
D. Keeping a fitness journal brings unexpected benefits.
E. Drink water immediately even if you don’t feel thirsty.
F. Set specific goals before starting any exercise program.
G. Stretching major muscle groups for 15-30 seconds each can also improve flexibility.

Ultimately, I ____28____ to follow my heart.
Weeks later, standing nervously backstage, I realized this wasn’t just about acting. It was about ____29____ my own voice. The performance was far from perfect — I ____30____ a line in Act 2 — but the audience’s applause felt more ____31____ than any test score.
Now as a theater major, I understand: Life isn’t about ____32____ others’ expectations. True success means having the ____33____ to write your own story.

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。
It all started when the new neighbour across the street brought back a Ping-Pong table and left it on his front lawn. He is a college student, and if you live in a college town, you understand that a Ping-Pong table on a front lawn is not just a Ping-Pong table. It’s a beer-pong table.
For those unfamiliar, beer pong involves bouncing balls into an opponent’s cup of beer, thereby forcing that person to drink. I knew it so well because I had spent years living on the other side of town, closer to the university. At that time, my husband and I shared a property line with 27 students, the sounds of beer pong extending late into the night and early into the morning, accompanied by unpleasant instrument sounds.
The best we could do was move to a quieter part of town, which we did at great expense. And now, here was this guy with a new beer-pong table within full view of my new kitchen window.
I come from a big family full of people easy to anger. I have always hoped that I’d be the one to change. I go to therapy. I journal and forest-bathe. These have helped soften the anger I inherited, but it’s still in there. Occasionally, I lose control and I say something I regret. The best way I know to repair the damage is with food. I’ve gifted tons of homemade food and jars of orange juice squeezed from homegrown fruit. I’ve seen the way a simple gift, such as a loaf of banana bread, can open the door of a heart that’s hurt, even if only a little.
Of course, I’d rather not hurt anyone in the first place. But when I saw that beer-pong table, the memories of drunk, loud and entitled college students angered me so much that it overturned a truth I hold to be self-evident: that all neighbours are created equal — at least in theory.
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。
Paragraph 1:
So I walked right up to the student’s house, past that stupid table and knocked on the door.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
I put some dough (面团) balls on a cookie sheet and baked them just until they looked and smelled perfect.

If you spot a lone fridge sitting on a city sidewalk, don’t quickly assume it’s just someone’s trash waiting to be taken away. There’s a good chance it’s actually full of free food, there for anyone in the neighborhood who might need it. These “community fridges” have been popping up in cities across the U. S. as more and more people struggle to get enough to eat.
Community fridges are a creative, neighborly way to fight food insecurity. They’re set up and looked after by local volunteers who want to help their communities. Volunteers gather donations from grocery stores, restaurants, and even individuals. They use social media to let people know what’s inside, what’s running low, and when new food has arrived. To keep things safe and inviting, they clean the fridges often and arrange the contents so everything is easy to see and clearly marked.
Julian Bentivegna, a chef and restaurant owner, started a community fridge this year. He told the National Post that he was surprised and happy to see how much people cared. At first, he worried there might be too many donations and not enough people taking the food, but instead, things have balanced out naturally. “We don’t police the fridges at all. We just let people take what they need and leave what they don’t,” he said.
In Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood, Pam Tietze founded the Friendly Fridge. She shared a story about a woman who once relied on soup kitchens but now can pick up fresh ingredients to cook at home, giving her more dignity and choice. “There’s the dignity of going to a fridge instead of a soup kitchen. I’m confident we’re serving those in need,” said Tietze.
Although these fridges make a real difference, it’s sad that ordinary people are left to patch up gaps in the food system — a problem that really needs government action. A quarter of New Yorkers deal with food insecurity, and about 30 percent of all food in the U. S. ends up wasted. Generous volunteers can help, but lasting change will come only from better policies and food distribution. Still, it’s heartening to see communities look after each other. If you want to help, check freedge.org or search “community fridge” online to find one in your city.
4. How does a community fridge operate?

C. Donors mark and organize the contents. D. Volunteers help to repair a broken fridge.
5. What difference did community fridges bring to the woman according to Paragraph 4?

Misinformation and disinformation can be a threat to our society. It can divide communities and make it harder for people to make informed choices. No one is immune. “We just don’t have the time, the cognitive resources or even the motivation to literally fact-check every piece of information that comes our way,” says Briony Swire-Thompson, director of the Psychology of Misinformation Lab at Northeastern University.
People have a whole life’s worth of experiences that affects how they engage with whatever they read online or hear on the news. So often people’s memories really shaped the ways that they engage in current ways with social systems and their media environments. Fortunately, people trust information more when it comes from sources or cultural contexts they are familiar with, so talking to your loved ones can make a difference.
Swire-Thompson says she’s found discussing sources to be an effective way to help reveal misinformation. That will help you have a conversation about who or what you both trust and why. In one study, Swire-Thompson found highlighting a source’s low expertise worked well, like pointing out the source’s lack of skills, professional training, relevant educational background, etc. You can also point out any conflicts of interest they might have. “It was far more effective than just correcting the misinformation,” says Swire-Thompson. You might want to keep that correction short, but research shows providing a “factual alternative,” or saying what is actually true, is more effective than just saying a piece of information is false.
Certainly change after one conversation is not guaranteed. These conversations are not about trying to transform someone naturally. It is more about how we can build this coexisting trust with each other and continue these types of conversations in a sustainable and healthy way. There is always this sense of urgency to say “false, I want to correct you!” But to build long-term relationships, to be able to do this on a slower scale will have a larger impact.
8. What causes people to believe in false information?
A. Lack of social engagement. B. Effect of personal experiences.
C. Threat from sources of wrong news. D. Little access to information checking.
9. What is an effective way to correct the misinformation?
A. Providing professional training. B. Citing the source of information.
C. Offering the factual version of the story. D. Praising the effective news collection.
10. What does the author imply in the last paragraph?
A. Transforming a person’s nature is challenging.
B. Harmonious relationships beat being right.
C. False information needs urgent attention.
D. Conversations are encouraged among family.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Trust Loved Ones With Heart B. Misinformation Harms Our Society
C. Correction Enhances Communication D. Remove Misinformation by Connection

Like rolling into a gas station during a road trip, whale sharks use oil and gas platforms as a brief stop during their migrations of thousands of kilometers across the oceans. The human-made structures attract marine life — including the sharks’ favorite snack: plankton (浮游生物). But experts worry that this attraction could put the endangered giant creatures at risk of ship strike or chemical pollution.
Satellite tracking of whale sharks off the coast of western Australia shows how oil and gas platforms influence the movements of these gentle giants, marine ecologist Ben D’ Antonio, of the Australian Institute of Marine Science and University of Western Australia, and colleagues report January 18.
“Think of seafloor features like a truck stop on a highway,” D’ Antonio says. “On a family vacation, we often pull into truck stops to fuel up and grab a quick bite before heading to our final destination. Whale sharks seem to be using seafloor features in a similar way.”
Over 14 years, the researchers tagged 78 whale sharks, tracked their movements and cross-checked the location of landform characteristics to see how these affect the sharks’ routes. While natural canyons and seamounts also act as brief stops, this attraction towards oil platforms — possibly bolstered by plankton’s attraction to the platforms’ rays of light — could put the huge animals at risk of being hit by a ship or pollution from oil spills or discharges. It’s impossible to know exactly how many are being killed by ships because their bodies sink without a sign.
The researchers hope this finding will help decision makers managing marine protected areas and raise awareness of the potential impact on marine life when human-made platforms are disused or new structures are built. “This will become more relevant as developments for renewable energy begin to add additional structure to many coastal areas,” D’ Antonio says.
12. Why do whale sharks use oil and gas platforms as a brief stop?
A. To admire the man-made structures. B. To get food attracted by the platforms.
C. To attract other species of marine life. D. To attack ships stopping at the place.
13. What risk can whale sharks meet when approaching oil and gas platforms?
A. Colliding with ships. B. Missing their snacks.
C. Being hunted by people. D. Being disturbed by tourists.
14. What does the underlined word “bolstered” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Sheltered. B. Boosted. C. Rejected. D. Polluted.
15. What role do the researchers hope this finding will play?
A. Promote the economy of coastal cities. B. Improve the stability of the gas platforms.
C. Assist decision makers with structure planning. D. Help countries to upgrade energy structures.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了卫星追踪显示,澳大利亚西海岸鲸鲨迁徙时将油气平台当作休息站,因平台吸引其食物浮游生物。但这可能使濒危鲸鲨面临船只撞击和化学污染风险,研究希望该发现助决策者保护海洋生物。
12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The human-made structures attract marine life — including the sharks’ favorite snack: plankton (浮游生物).(这些人造建筑吸引了海洋生物——其中包括鲨鱼最爱的食物:浮游生物)”可知,鲨鱼是为了获取食物而暂时停留,故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But experts worry that this attraction could put the endangered giant creatures at risk of ship strike or chemical pollution.(但专家们担心,这种吸引力可能会使这些濒临灭绝的巨型生物面临船只撞击或化学污染的危险)”可知,鲸鲨在靠近石油和天然气平台时可能会面临与船只相撞。故选A。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“While natural canyons and seamounts also act as brief stops, this attraction towards oil platforms(虽然天然峡谷和海山也会作为短暂的停留点,但这些鲸鲨对石油平台的趋近)”以及后文“could put the huge animals at risk of being hit by a ship or pollution from oil spills or discharges (可能会使这些庞然大物面临被船只撞击或受到石油泄漏或排放污染的风险)”可知,浮游生物受到石油的吸引,从而促进了以浮游生物为食物的鲨鱼的到来,故划线词意思是“促进”。故选B。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The researchers hope this finding will help decision makers managing marine protected areas and raise awareness of the potential impact on marine life when human-made platforms are disused or new structures are built.(研究人员希望这一发现能够帮助负责管理海洋保护区的决策者们,同时也能提高人们对人类建造的设施退役或新建设施时对海洋生物可能造成影响的认识)”可知,研究人员希望这一发现协助决策者进行结构规划。故选C。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过1月27日欧美股市震荡的事件,引出中国科技公司DeepSeek的“V3”和“R1”模型对全球AI市场的冲击。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:DeepSeek的“V3”和“R1”模型因其强大能力震惊投资者,引发了这一波动。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词DeepSeek’s “V3” and “R1” models,关系词在从句中作定语,修饰名词capabilities,用关系代词whose引导该从句,故填whose。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意:人工智能热潮中的关键芯片制造商英伟达,市值蒸发了6000亿美元。根据上文时间状语“On January 27th”和“shook”可知,此处描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,谓语动词用过去式。故填saw。
【38题详解】
考查冠词。句意:由于美国出口管制无法使用顶级芯片,Deepseek找到了一种创新方式,让现有芯片发挥奇效,创造出与谷歌和OpenAI相当的优秀模型,但成本显著更低。way是可数名词,此处泛指“一种创新的方法”,且innovative以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an,故填an。
【39题详解】
考查代词。句意同上。比较结构“as excellent as”中,需用代词指代前文提到的“models”(复数),避免重复,those指代同名复数名词。故填those。
【40题详解】
考查副词。句意同上。修饰形容词lower用副词作状语,故填significantly。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这导致许多投资者预期只有少数公司能控制市场并赚取巨额利润。固定搭配“lead sb. to do sth.”意为“导致某人做某事”,不定式作宾语补足语。故填to anticipate。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:但现在,这些利润预期处于风险之中。at risk是固定短语,意为“处于危险中”。故填at。
【43题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:DeepSeek的成功挑战了这一观点,它表明竞争和创新如何将使人工智能更便宜,而DeepSeek获得更高效率的轻松程度将刺激竞争。空处引导宾语从句,从句缺少方式状语,需用连接副词how引导该从句。故填how。
【44题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意同上。根据语境,DeepSeek通过提升效率(与之前相比)刺激竞争,需用形容词比较级,great的比较级为greater。故填greater。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:DeepSeek的成功表明,这样一个世界是可以想象的。系动词is后接形容词作表语,表示“可想象的”用形容词imaginable。故填imaginable。

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。
It all started when the new neighbour across the street brought back a Ping-Pong table and left it on his front lawn. He is a college student, and if you live in a college town, you understand that a Ping-Pong table on a front lawn is not just a Ping-Pong table. It’s a beer-pong table.
For those unfamiliar, beer pong involves bouncing balls into an opponent’s cup of beer, thereby forcing that person to drink. I knew it so well because I had spent years living on the other side of town, closer to the university. At that time, my husband and I shared a property line with 27 students, the sounds of beer pong extending late into the night and early into the morning, accompanied by unpleasant instrument sounds.
The best we could do was move to a quieter part of town, which we did at great expense. And now, here was this guy with a new beer-pong table within full view of my new kitchen window.
I come from a big family full of people easy to anger. I have always hoped that I’d be the one to change. I go to therapy. I journal and forest-bathe. These have helped soften the anger I inherited, but it’s still in there. Occasionally, I lose control and I say something I regret. The best way I know to repair the damage is with food. I’ve gifted tons of homemade food and jars of orange juice squeezed from homegrown fruit. I’ve seen the way a simple gift, such as a loaf of banana bread, can open the door of a heart that’s hurt, even if only a little.
Of course, I’d rather not hurt anyone in the first place. But when I saw that beer-pong table, the memories of drunk, loud and entitled college students angered me so much that it overturned a truth I hold to be self-evident: that all neighbours are created equal — at least in theory.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;

So I walked right up to the student’s house, past that stupid table and knocked on the door.

【答案】范文
So I walked right up to the student’s house, past that stupid table and knocked on the door. As soon as the door was open, I even didn’t bother to introduce myself and directly told him that his table had to go. “Who are you?” he asked. “And what gives you the right to make such a ridiculous demand?” His impoliteness only infuriated me more. I started to yell how stupid his table was and how inconsiderate he was. Suddenly, I felt a pull on my arm: my husband. He had predicted my action and appeared on time to pull me away. The rest of the day, I was shaking with anger. But the next morning, I awoke, full of shame. Why couldn’t I keep it together? Why couldn’t I approach him nicely? So I decided to do what I was good at: turning to the fridge.
I put the dough balls on a cookie sheet and baked them just until they looked and smelled perfect. Then I walked what felt like miles across the street to the kid’s doorstep, right past the beer-pong table. The student opened the door wearing a white T-shirt. I offered the plate with one hand, the other pressed to my chest. I told him that the person he met yesterday wasn’t me. At least, it wasn’t the person I wanted to be. “Would you please forgive me?” I asked. He looked down at the plate, and his face softened. He said the person I met at his door yesterday hadn’t been him, either. He was sorry, too. Then he closed the door and I walked back across the street, feeling like I’d witnessed a miracle.
