My beekeeping journey began when I was a teenager in the early 1970s. School and work soon took me to the big city and away from my honey bees. Four decades later, I had the opportunity to move back to the country and renew my passion for honey bees. I eagerly rebuilt my hives (蜂巢) — only to face disaster. That first winter, four of five bee groups lay dead because their hives got too damp. Where had I failed?
Bees, like humans, breathe out water into the air. The more active the bees, the more wetness they put in the air. Sudden cold worsens this: each time my grandson rushed in from the snow, our heater struggled — the bees’ energy rewarming forces them to release more wet air. I learned to minimize hive checks after mid-fall. Checking inside interrupts their winter preparations — closing cracks between the boxes and adjusting airflow. Now, I listen with a simple tool to listen for activity instead.
Feeding syrup (糖浆) late also backfires. Sugar syrup must be thickened to between 14% and 21% wetness. Any wetness beyond that percentage must be released into the hive as bees process their food, breathing out extra water. My solution? Ensure hives save enough honey by fall’s end. I keep spare beehives in low temperature, transferring them if stores run low. Winter bees — “fat bees” packed with nutrients — handle cold better, their food processing drier.
Yet there’s no universal fix. My Pacific Northwest strategies — like tipping hives slightly for water runoff — might fail elsewhere. One truth holds: bees teach patience. Every misstep (like tapping hives “just to check”) carries consequences. Now, I journal successes and failures, adapting as my buzzing mentors (导师) demand.
Last winter, all five hives survived. Opening them this spring, I found lively groups — no deaths, just the steady sound of survival. Beekeeping isn’t about control, but partnership. Sometimes, the wisest step is stepping back.
4. What initially caused the author’s bee groups to die?
A. Frequent checks. B. Trapped wet air.
C. Insufficient honey. D. Extreme cold weather.
5. Why does the author mention his grandson in paragraph 2?
A. To present weather factors. B. To highlight bee popularity.
C. To show family involvement. D. To explain human disturbance.
6. What strategy helps bees survive with low honey stores?
A. Freezing extra hives.
B. Heating hives artificially.
C. Thickening sugar liquids.
D. Reducing bee inspections.
7. Which of the following does the author emphasize about beekeeping?
A. Employ advanced tools frequently.
B. Prioritize commercial bee types.
C. Adapt methods to local conditions.
D. Conduct strict temperature control.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者养蜂的经历,包括初期蜂群死亡的原因、探索解决方法的过程及从养蜂中领悟的道理。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“That first winter, four of five bee groups lay dead because their hives got too damp. (第一个冬天,五群蜜蜂中有四群死了,因为它们的蜂巢太潮湿了。)”及第二段对蜜蜂呼吸释放湿气、寒冷天气加剧湿气积累的解释可知,最初导致蜂群死亡的原因是蜂巢内湿气滞留。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Sudden cold worsens this: each time my grandson rushed in from the snow, our heater struggled — the bees’ energy rewarming forces them to release more wet air. (突然的寒冷使情况更糟:每次我的孙子从雪地里冲进来,我们的暖气就很吃力——蜜蜂重新变暖的能量迫使它们释放更多的湿空气。)”可知,作者通过孙子从雪地进入室内导致暖气运行、类比蜜蜂因环境变化释放更多湿气,是为了解释人类活动对蜜蜂生存环境的干扰。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“I keep spare beehives in low temperature, transferring them if stores run low. (我把备用蜂巢放在低温环境中,如果蜂蜜储备不足,就把它们转移过来。)”可知,当蜂蜜储备不足时,作者通过冷冻备用蜂巢并转移的策略帮助蜜蜂生存。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Yet there’s no universal fix. My Pacific Northwest strategies — like tipping hives slightly for water runoff — might fail elsewhere. (然而,没有通用的解决方法。我在太平洋西北部的策略——比如稍微倾斜蜂巢让水流出——在其他地方可能会失败。)”及“Now, I journal successes and failures, adapting as my buzzing mentors (导师) demand. (我记录成功和失败,根据我的“嗡嗡”导师的需求调整方法。)”可知,作者强调养蜂需根据当地条件调整方法,而非采用统一策略。故选C项。
C
From an early age, we tend to divide ourselves and others into opposing groups—such as “smart vs. dumb” in school or “rich vs. poor” in adulthood. This thinking is often used for simpler identification, but it carries significant risks.
Once we assign people or ourselves to a group, several psychological effects take hold. First of all, the group members assume an identity. A label is placed on them, which over time achieves a level of permanency. For example, if you decide yourself as belonging to the “I’m really not creative” group, you tend to view yourself as primarily and permanently uncreative. The longer this belief lasts, the harder it is to change.
Moreover, groups provide us with a false sense of comfort. By joining the “I’m not creative” group, we also conveniently protect ourselves from moving beyond the borders of that group into new and often unfamiliar areas. Like birds that hesitate to leave their cages even when the door is open, we eschew the desire to get out of our comfort zone—not because we can’t, but because we won’t. There are not just many like-minded people in the group, but it offers a safe environment to work and play.
But the problem doesn’t end there. There is a tsunami of books and articles that use language such as the following: “Creative people are individuals like Leonardo, Edison, Picasso, or Einstein who have changed our culture in some important respects” and “Creative people are the ones who get ahead in their jobs, start new businesses, invent products... paint pictures, and make things of beauty.” When reading these statements, we automatically assign ourselves to that “other group”, knowing that we can never measure up.
However, as psychological research has convincingly demonstrated, creativity is not exclusive to a select few; it is a birthright shared by everyone. So, be mindful of what you read. Sometimes, others may be putting you in a box without your knowing.
8. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. Benefits of group identity.
B. Ways to develop creativity.
C. Harm in social categorization.
D. Competitions between age groups.
9. What happens when people label themselves as uncreative?
A. Their skills stop improving. B. Their mindset becomes fixed.
C. They distrust pioneering ideas. D. They develop a stable personality.
10. What does the underlined word “eschew” probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. Avoid. B. Analyze.
C. Express. D. Channel.
11. What might the author suggest people do?
A. Measure their creative skills.
B. Judge creative claims critically.
C. Study famous creators’ lives.
D. Attend creative training programs.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文,探讨了将人划分为对立群体的思维模式及其带来的心理危害,指出这种分类会固化自我认知、阻碍突破舒适区,并纠正“创造力仅属于少数人”的错误观念。
【8题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“From an early age, we tend to divide ourselves and others into opposing groups—such as “smart vs. dumb” in school or “rich vs. poor” in adulthood. This thinking is often used for simpler identification, but it carries significant risks(从小,我们往往将自己和他人划分为对立群体——比如在学校里是“聪明人与笨人”之分,成年后则是“富人与穷人”之别。这种思维方式常被用来简化识别,但它却带来了重大风险)”、第二段“Once we assign people or ourselves to a group, several psychological effects take hold. First of all, the group members assume an identity. A label is placed on them, which over time achieves a level of permanency(一旦我们将他人或自己归入某个群体,几种心理效应就会随之产生。首先,群体成员会获得一种身份认同。一个标签被贴在他们身上,随着时间的推移,这个标签逐渐具有了某种永久性)”、第三段“Moreover, groups provide us with a false sense of comfort. By joining the “I’m not creative” group, we also conveniently protect ourselves from moving beyond the borders of that group into new and often unfamiliar areas(此外,群体会给我们带来一种虚假的舒适感。通过加入“我没有创造力”这样的群体,我们还顺势方便地保护了自己,避免跨越该群体的边界,进入那些全新且往往陌生的领域)”、倒数第二段““Creative people are individuals like Leonardo, Edison, Picasso, or Einstein who have changed our culture in some important respects” and “Creative people are the ones who get ahead in their jobs, start new businesses, invent products... paint pictures, and make things of beauty.” When reading these statements, we automatically assign ourselves to that “other group”, knowing that we can never measure up(“有创造力的人是像莱昂纳多(达芬奇)、爱迪生、毕加索或爱因斯坦这样的个体,他们在一些重要方面改变了我们的文化”以及“有创造力的人是那些在工作中出人头地、开创新企业、发明产品……绘制画作、创造美好事物的人”。当读到这些陈述时,我们会自动将自己归入那个“另类群体”,因为我们知道自己永远无法达到那样的标准)”以及最后一段“So, be mindful of what you read. Sometimes, others may be putting you in a box without your knowing(所以,要留意你阅读的内容。有时候,别人可能会在你不知情的情况下把你框定在某个范围内)”可知,文章开篇指出人们习惯将自己和他人划入对立群体,随后从“身份固化”、“舒适区依赖”以及“创造力误解”三个层面分析这种分类的危害,最后强调创造力是人人共有的权利。全文围绕“社会分类的负面影响”展开,故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“A label is placed on them, which over time achieves a level of permanency. For example, if you decide yourself as belonging to the “I’m really not creative” group, you tend to view yourself as primarily and permanently uncreative. The longer this belief lasts, the harder it is to change(一个标签被贴在他们身上,随着时间的推移,这个标签逐渐具有了某种永久性。例如,如果你将自己归为“我确实没有创造力”这一类,你就会倾向于认为自己主要是且永久地缺乏创造力。这种观念存在的时间越长,就越难改变)”可知,当人们给自己贴上“缺乏创造力”的标签时,这种自我认知会逐渐固化,形成难以改变的思维模式。故选B。
10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段“Like birds that hesitate to leave their cages even when the door is open, we … the desire to get out of our comfort zone—not because we can’t, but because we won’t. There are not just many like-minded people in the group, but it offers a safe environment to work and play(就像那些即使笼门敞开也犹豫着不愿离开笼子的鸟儿一样,我们……走出舒适区的愿望——并非因为我们不能,而是因为我们不愿意。这个群体中不仅有众多志同道合的人,它还提供了一个安全的环境供我们工作和娱乐)”可知,就像鸟儿即使笼门敞开也犹豫着不愿离开一样,并非因为我们不能走出舒适圈,而是因为我们不愿意,可推理出划线词的含义为“避免”,故选A。
11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“So, be mindful of what you read. Sometimes, others may be putting you in a box without your knowing(所以,要留意你阅读的内容。有时候,别人可能会在你不知情的情况下把你框定在某个范围内)”可知,作者建议人们对书籍和文章中关于“创造力仅属于少数人”的说法保持警惕,批判性看待这类观点,避免被无意识分类,故选B。
D
Picture this: You’re trying to walk through a packed crosswalk after school. Have you ever wondered why sometimes everyone magically forms neat lines, while other times everything turns into chaos? MIT scientists have cracked the code — and it all comes down to a simple 13-degree rule.
The research began with what they see in daily life: in environments like crosswalks where people walk straight toward opposite directions, stable paths form naturally. But in spaces like airport terminals (航站楼) where people move at various angles, chaos usually wins. To understand why, mathematician Karol Bacik and his colleagues created mathematical models that study crowd movement like flowing water, looking at different walking angles and how people avoid bumping into each other. Based on these models, they predicted that when people’ walking directions spread apart beyond a certain critical angle, the orderly lane formation would break down into disorder.
The research team then tested their idea in a lab-designed crosswalk. Volunteers wearing uniquely coded hats walked across a pretended intersection (十字路口) while overhead cameras tracked their movements. The team varied starting points and walking angles across hundreds of trials, mapping how crowds flowed or clashed. By analyzing thousands of crossings, the team confirmed their prediction — when the average walking direction went beyond 13 degrees, orderly lines collapse into inefficient, potentially dangerous disorder.
“This isn’t just about math — it’s about real-world safety,” explains Bacik. “A shopping mall designed with this 13-degree rule in mind could prevent dangerous crowding, while subway stations might arrange exits to naturally guide people into efficient paths.”
The implications extend beyond urban design. Emergency planners could use these findings to design better escape routes, and Al systems might better predict crowd flows in smart cities. As Bacik’s team prepares to test their model in real life, one thing is clear: even in something as ordinary as walking, hidden patterns govern our behavior — and science is just beginning to understand them. Moreover, this study transforms an everyday observation into measurable facts, proving once again that mathematics can reveal order in the seeming chaos of everyday life.
12. What determines whether crowd movement becomes orderly?
A. The speed of movement.
B. The width of crossroads.
C. The number of people involved.
D. The angle of walking directions.
13. Which of the following best describes the research team?
A. Humble and practical.
B. Patient and confident.
C. Ambitious and independent.
D. Observant and analytical.
14. What is a practical value of the study?
A. Improving safety in public spaces.
B. Changing people’s walking habits.
C. Developing crowd tracking systems.
D. Assisting the government of small cities.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Principles for Intersection Design
B. Math’s Role in Solving Traffic Problems
C. The 13-Degree Rule: How Crowds Maintain Order
D. Movement Patterns: Why the New Research Matters
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了麻省理工学院的科学家们通过研究发现13度法则,揭示了人群保持秩序的奥秘。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段中“Based on these models, they predicted that when people’ walking directions spread apart beyond a certain critical angle, the orderly lane formation would break down into disorder.(基于这些模型,他们预测,当人们的行走方向分散超过某个临界角度时,有序的队列形成就会瓦解成无序状态)”以及第三段中“By analyzing thousands of crossings, the team confirmed their prediction — when the average walking direction went beyond 13 degrees, orderly lines collapse into inefficient, potentially dangerous disorder.(通过分析数千次穿越,研究小组证实了他们的预测——当平均行走方向超过13度时,有序的队列会崩溃成低效、潜在危险的混乱状态)”可知,行走方向的角度决定了人群运动是否变得有序。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。解析:根据第二段中“The research began with what they see in daily life: in environments like crosswalks where people walk straight toward opposite directions, stable paths form naturally. But in spaces like airport terminals (航站楼) where people move at various angles, chaos usually wins. To understand why, mathematician Karol Bacik and his colleagues created mathematical models that study crowd movement like flowing water, looking at different walking angles and how people avoid bumping into each other.(这项研究始于他们在日常生活中看到的现象:在像人行横道这样的环境中,人们朝着相反的方向直线行走,自然会形成稳定的路径。但在像机场航站楼这样的地方,人们以各种角度移动,通常会出现混乱。为了理解原因,数学家Karol Bacik和他的同事创建了数学模型,像研究流动的水一样研究人群运动,观察不同的行走角度以及人们如何避免相互碰撞)”以及第三段中“The research team then tested their idea in a lab-designed crosswalk. Volunteers wearing uniquely coded hats walked across a pretended intersection (十字路口) while overhead cameras tracked their movements. The team varied starting points and walking angles across hundreds of trials, mapping how crowds flowed or clashed.(然后,研究小组在实验室设计的人行横道上测试了他们的想法。志愿者们戴着独特编码的帽子走过一个模拟的十字路口,头顶的摄像头跟踪他们的动作。研究小组在数百次试验中改变了起点和行走角度,绘制了人群如何流动或冲突的地图)”可推知,研究团队注意到了日常生活中的现象,并通过建立数学模型和实验来分析原因,说明他们具有善于观察和分析的特点。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中““This isn’t just about math — it’s about real-world safety,” explains Back. A shopping mall designed with this 13-degree rule in mind could prevent dangerous crowding, while subway stations might arrange exits to naturally guide people into efficient paths.(Bacik解释说:“这不仅仅是数学问题——它关系到现实世界的安全。”在设计购物中心时考虑到这个13度规则,可以防止危险的人群拥挤,而地铁站可能会安排出口,自然地引导人们走上高效的道路)”可知,这项研究的实际价值是提高公共场所的安全性。故选A。
【15题详解】
标题归纳题。根据文章第一段“Picture this: You’re trying to walk through a packed crosswalk after school. Have you ever wondered why sometimes everyone magically forms neat lines, while other times everything turns into chaos? MIT scientists have cracked the code — and it all comes down to a simple 13-degree rule.(想象一下:放学后,你试图穿过拥挤的人行横道。你有没有想过,为什么有时候每个人都能神奇地排成整齐的队伍,而其他时候一切都会变得混乱?麻省理工学院的科学家们已经破解了这个密码——这一切都归结为一个简单的13度规则)”并结合文章内容可知,本文主要说明了麻省理工学院的科学家们发现,当人们的行走方向分散超过13度时,有序的队列形成就会瓦解成无序状态,介绍了这一研究开展的过程以及这项研究对现实世界的意义。可知,C选项“13度法则:人群如何保持秩序”最符合文章标题。故选C。
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。
We often fall into the trap of assuming rational (理性的) thought is naturally superior to intuitive (直觉的) responses. ____16____ In truth, we should find agreement between what our heart wants and what our reason says.
Rational thinking proves particularly valuable in certain situations. ____17____ Without it, we might rely too heavily on emotions, leading to poor decisions. Studies confirm that people who think rationally tend to perform better in both academic and professional settings. Moreover, it helps individuals analyze complex problems, allow for better planning and make well-informed choices.
____18____ People who are more analytic are seen less approachable, which may make them seem distant or unfeeling. As a result, they might struggle to build close relationships or communicate warmth in social situations.
Intuitive thinking, though sometimes imperfect, shows impressive effectiveness in many everyday situations. Chess masters instantly recognize strong moves, firefighters make life-saving decisions through instinct, and artists create through sudden inspiration — none of which could be achieved through slow, step-by-step analysis. These examples remind us that intuition is not the opposite of reason. ____19____
In our modern world of constant information, the ability to use both thinking styles becomes especially valuable. Life is not a problem to be solved by logic alone, nor a feeling to be trusted blindly. ____20____ In the end, to live well is to think with both the precision of a scientist and the grace of an artist — calculating when needed, but never silencing the inner voice that says, “This just feels right.”
A. This, however, is not the whole picture.
B. It allows us to weigh evidence objectively.
C. It’s experience that becomes quick and automatic.
D. Wisest decisions sing when reason and intuition harmonize.
E. Surprisingly, logical thinking promotes emotional intelligence.
F. However, sometimes intuition can be more effective than reasoning.
G. This black-and-white view overlooks the complexity of human thought.
【答案】16. G 17. B 18. A 19. C 20. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章探讨了理性思维和直觉反应各自的优缺点,指出二者并非对立,而是相辅相成,明智的决策需要两者的和谐统一。
【16题详解】
上文“We often fall into the trap of assuming rational thought is naturally superior to intuitive responses. (我们常陷入认为理性思维天然优于直觉反应的陷阱。)”说明人们通常认为理性思维比直觉反应更优越,空处承接上文,应指出这种观点的片面性。G项“这种非黑即白的观点忽略了人类思维的复杂性。”符合语境。故选G。
【17题详解】
上文“Rational thinking proves particularly valuable in certain situations. (理性思维在某些情境中尤其重要。)”以及下文“Without it, we might rely too heavily on emotions, leading to poor decisions. (没有它,我们可能过于依赖情感,从而导致糟糕的决策。)”说明理性思维在特定情况下特别有价值,空处承接上文,具体解释理性思维的作用,因此B项“它让我们能客观权衡证据。”符合语境,B项中的weigh evidence与下文analyze complex problems形成呼应。故选B。
【18题详解】
下文“People who are more analytic are seen less approachable, which may make them seem distant or unfeeling. As a result, they might struggle to build close relationships or communicate warmth in social situations. (更善于分析的人显得不那么平易近人,这可能使他们显得冷漠或缺乏感情。因此,他们可能难以在社交场合建立亲密关系或传递温暖。)”说明本段讨论理性思维的缺点,与前段肯定其优点形成转折。A项“然而,这不是全部”承上启下,标志论述角度的切换,引出理性思维的局限性,符合语境。故选A。
【19题详解】
上文“These examples remind us that intuition is not the opposite of reason. (这些例子向我们表明直觉并非理性的对立面。)”以及前文用国际象棋大师、消防员、艺术家的例子说明直觉的有效性,并强调直觉与理性并非对立,空处进一步解释直觉的本质。C 项“它是快速且自动的经验”解释了直觉是基于经验的本能反应,而非与理性割裂,符合语境。故选C。
【20题详解】
上文“Life is not a problem to be solved by logic alone, nor a feeling to be trusted blindly. (生活不能仅靠逻辑解决,也非盲目依赖直觉。)”以及下文“In the end, to live well is to think with both the precision of a scientist and the grace of an artist — calculating when needed, but never silencing the inner voice that says, “This just feels right.” (最终,要想生活得好,就要兼具科学家的精准思维与艺术家的优雅思考——在需要时精打细算,但永远不要压抑内心那个“这感觉没错”的声音。)”说明生活需要逻辑与情感的平衡,并用科学家和艺术家类比理性与直觉的结合,空处需总结全文核心观点,强调理性与直觉结合的重要性。因此D项“最明智的决定诞生于理性与直觉的和谐共鸣”符合语境。故选D。

All along, I’ve lived by others’ definitions of the “right” way.
As a kid, I was short and ____21____. When I played basketball, I had to put my tiny body behind the ball and throw it underhand at the hoop (篮筐). Kids laughed and called my ____22____ style “grandma shot.” I looked strange, but I ____23____ every time. I won multiple free throw competitions using my “grandma shot”, so I ____24____ it. But my victories came with great ____25____ — I hadn’t done it the “right” way.
But did success only count if it looked the way others ____26____? Years later, when I closed my eyes, I recalled standing on the free throw line at 10 years old, ____27____ the noise, and focusing on the basket. My “grandma shot” ____28____, and everyone cheered. The way I shot was odd, but it did ____29____ the rules.
Suddenly, I realized I’d spent my life letting the “right” way ____30____ my achievements. I was a freelancer (自由职业者) who doesn’t have a stable income, and I’d always felt I was doing something ____31____. However, I earned scholarships, built businesses, and shaped my life with ____32____ steps. Now I know it’s not the ____33____ that matters, but the joy you find throughout the journey. There’s no one right or wrong way. ____34____, there are countless paths. There’s no ____35____ in that — sometimes, it leads to great success.

【答案】Version 1
Dear Mr. Wilson,
I’d like to recommend the lotus pond on campus as a key theme for your elective course. The pond offers a serene yet vibrant scene: blooming lotuses, playful fish, and reflections of surrounding trees create a harmonious ecosystem. Its beauty highlights the balance between nature and campus life, making it ideal for capturing ecological themes. Additionally, seasonal changes in the pond, such as lotus growth in summer and fallen leaves in autumn, provide rich opportunities to showcase biodiversity.
For the final display, I suggest organizing a photography exhibition. Students could present their works both online (via the school’s social media) and in the art gallery. This would raise environmental awareness while celebrating campus beauty. Thank you for considering my proposal!
Best regards,
Li Hua

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。
Ethan had always lived by checklists — precise and detailed. At school he double-checked his answers, rewrote notes in perfect handwriting, and organized his pens by size and color. But the world often refused to follow his plan. A missed question, a group project gone off track, or even a messy desk could send him into hours of self-blame.
During a school event, he was struck by what was advertised on the poster of a pottery class, “Join us. Create, relax, and just be yourself.” He eagerly signed up, hoping it might ease the anxiety that had wrapped him around for long.
On the first day of their pottery workshop, Ethan arrived earlier, and spent almost an hour arranging and rearranging all the tools, the wheel, carving knives, brushes, and measuring cups... He carefully lined them up like surgical instruments. He had even watched twelve instructional videos the night before, determined to get everything right. Yet somehow, he couldn’t even make a simple bowl — his third attempt of the day had just exploded in the kiln (窑).
He wrote on his notebook with precision, “Attempt 3,400g stoneware, 21% water, Collapsed at 4.2cm height.” Maybe the curve (弧线) was just not standard enough, Ethan thought.
Ms. Alvarez, their instructor, approached Ethan and said with a warm smile, “Beginner’s tip. Don’t worry about making it perfect.” Ethan froze. The word “Perfect” hung in the air, sharp and cold, bringing back memories of last year’s science fair — when sleepless nights and silent tears had ended not in praise, but in a crushing headache.
Around him, the others were making uneven bowls and plates with funny-looking curves. Some were even laughing at their own “disasters”. No one seemed to mind getting it wrong. Ethan looked down at his own hands, still dusted with clay. Ethan forced a smile, turned to the soft clay on his table, and began kneading (揉黏土), ready for a fourth attempt.
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: “Forget about making it perfect.” Ms. Alvarez’s words gently landed beside him.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: “Now,” Ms. Alvarez said to Ethan with a smile, “let’s wait.”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
“Forget about making it perfect.” Ms. Alvarez’s words gently landed beside him. Hearing this, Ethan hesitated, then closed his notebook and let his fingers press into the clay with no checklist. His hands worked clumsily at first, but soon the rhythm of kneading and shaping took over, each motion less about control and more about curiosity. Halfway through, Ethan pressed too hard while shaping — the curve wasn’t right, just a little uneven. He glanced at Ms. Alvarez, remembering her gentle voice. Just this once, he decided not to start over. Ms. Alvarez watched him, offering gentle encouragement as the form slowly emerged under his hands, uneven yet whole. With her guidance, Ethan carefully placed his newly formed clay piece into the kiln.
“Now,” Ms. Alvarez said to Ethan with a smile, “let’s wait.” He stepped back from the warm glow of the kiln, a sense of quiet anticipation settling within him. It wasn’t the old anxiety about perfection, but a quiet curiosity about what might emerge. When the kiln finally cooled and the pieces were revealed, Ms. Alvarez came over, pride shining in her eyes. “Beautiful work, Ethan.” Actually, Ethan’s bowl was far from perfect. But it held its shape and was unique. Ethan looked up at Ms. Alvarez, a genuine smile on his lips. Ethan felt a strange lightness, as if the weight of all his checklists had finally lifted. Later, as the class gathered around their finished pieces, Ethan found himself reaching out to steady a classmate’s strange-looking cup. “I think it’s beautiful,” he said, surprising even himself.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。做事追求完美的Ethan常因不完美自责。学校活动中他报名陶艺课,首次课上精心准备却屡试屡败,老师劝他别追求完美,见他人坦然面对失误,他决定再试一次。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段句首内容“‘忘了让它变得完美吧。’Alvarez女士的话轻轻地落在他身边。”可知,第一段可以描写Alvarez女士鼓励Ethan忘却完美主义,Ethan尝试在无清单的情况下进行陶艺制作,过程中出现失误但决定不重做,而是在Alvarez女士的鼓励下继续完成作品。
②由第二段句首内容“‘现在,’Alvarez女士微笑着对Ethan说,‘让我们等一下。’”可知,第二段可以描写Ethan将作品放入窑中等待,内心从对完美的焦虑转变为对未知结果的好奇与期待,作品出窑后虽不完美但独特,Ethan感受到前所未有的轻松,并学会欣赏和赞美他人作品。
2.续写线索:Alvarez女士鼓励Ethan忘却完美主义——Ethan尝试无清单制作陶艺——制作过程中出现失误但决定不重做——在Ms. Alvarez鼓励下完成作品并放入窑中——等待作品出窑,Ethan内心充满好奇与期待——作品出窑,虽不完美但独特,Ethan学会欣赏他人作品并表达赞美

My beekeeping journey began when I was a teenager in the early 1970s. School and work soon took me to the big city and away from my honey bees. Four decades later, I had the opportunity to move back to the country and renew my passion for honey bees. I eagerly rebuilt my hives (蜂巢) — only to face disaster. That first winter, four of five bee groups lay dead because their hives got too damp. Where had I failed?
Bees, like humans, breathe out water into the air. The more active the bees, the more wetness they put in the air. Sudden cold worsens this: each time my grandson rushed in from the snow, our heater struggled — the bees’ energy rewarming forces them to release more wet air. I learned to minimize hive checks after mid-fall. Checking inside interrupts their winter preparations — closing cracks between the boxes and adjusting airflow. Now, I listen with a simple tool to listen for activity instead.
Feeding syrup (糖浆) late also backfires. Sugar syrup must be thickened to between 14% and 21% wetness. Any wetness beyond that percentage must be released into the hive as bees process their food, breathing out extra water. My solution? Ensure hives save enough honey by fall’s end. I keep spare beehives in low temperature, transferring them if stores run low. Winter bees — “fat bees” packed with nutrients — handle cold better, their food processing drier.
Yet there’s no universal fix. My Pacific Northwest strategies — like tipping hives slightly for water runoff — might fail elsewhere. One truth holds: bees teach patience. Every misstep (like tapping hives “just to check”) carries consequences. Now, I journal successes and failures, adapting as my buzzing mentors (导师) demand.
Last winter, all five hives survived. Opening them this spring, I found lively groups — no deaths, just the steady sound of survival. Beekeeping isn’t about control, but partnership. Sometimes, the wisest step is stepping back.
4. What initially caused the author’s bee groups to die?
A Frequent checks. B. Trapped wet air.
C. Insufficient honey. D. Extreme cold weather.
5. Why does the author mention his grandson in paragraph 2?
A. To present weather factors. B. To highlight bee popularity.
C. To show family involvement. D. To explain human disturbance.
6. What strategy helps bees survive with low honey stores?
A. Freezing extra hives.
B. Heating hives artificially.
C. Thickening sugar liquids.
D. Reducing bee inspections.
7. Which of the following does the author emphasize about beekeeping?
A. Employ advanced tools frequently.
B. Prioritize commercial bee types.
C. Adapt methods to local conditions.
D Conduct strict temperature control.
C
From an early age, we tend to divide ourselves and others into opposing groups—such as “smart vs. dumb” in school or “rich vs. poor” in adulthood. This thinking is often used for simpler identification, but it carries significant risks.
Once we assign people or ourselves to a group, several psychological effects take hold. First of all, the group members assume an identity. A label is placed on them, which over time achieves a level of permanency. For example, if you decide yourself as belonging to the “I’m really not creative” group, you tend to view yourself as primarily and permanently uncreative. The longer this belief lasts, the harder it is to change.
Moreover, groups provide us with a false sense of comfort. By joining the “I’m not creative” group, we also conveniently protect ourselves from moving beyond the borders of that group into new and often unfamiliar areas. Like birds that hesitate to leave their cages even when the door is open, we eschew the desire to get out of our comfort zone—not because we can’t, but because we won’t. There are not just many like-minded people in the group, but it offers a safe environment to work and play.
But the problem doesn’t end there. There is a tsunami of books and articles that use language such as the following: “Creative people are individuals like Leonardo, Edison, Picasso, or Einstein who have changed our culture in some important respects” and “Creative people are the ones who get ahead in their jobs, start new businesses, invent products... paint pictures, and make things of beauty.” When reading these statements, we automatically assign ourselves to that “other group”, knowing that we can never measure up.
However, as psychological research has convincingly demonstrated, creativity is not exclusive to a select few; it is a birthright shared by everyone. So, be mindful of what you read. Sometimes, others may be putting you in a box without your knowing.
8. What does the text mainly discuss?
A. Benefits of group identity.
B. Ways to develop creativity.
C. Harm in social categorization.
D. Competitions between age groups.
9. What happens when people label themselves as uncreative?
A. Their skills stop improving. B. Their mindset becomes fixed.
C. They distrust pioneering ideas. D. They develop a stable personality.
10. What does the underlined word “eschew” probably mean in paragraph 3?
A. Avoid. B. Analyze.
C Express. D. Channel.
11. What might the author suggest people do?
A. Measure their creative skills.
B Judge creative claims critically.
C. Study famous creators’ lives.
D. Attend creative training programs.
D
Picture this: You’re trying to walk through a packed crosswalk after school. Have you ever wondered why sometimes everyone magically forms neat lines, while other times everything turns into chaos? MIT scientists have cracked the code — and it all comes down to a simple 13-degree rule.
The research began with what they see in daily life: in environments like crosswalks where people walk straight toward opposite directions, stable paths form naturally. But in spaces like airport terminals (航站楼) where people move at various angles, chaos usually wins. To understand why, mathematician Karol Bacik and his colleagues created mathematical models that study crowd movement like flowing water, looking at different walking angles and how people avoid bumping into each other. Based on these models, they predicted that when people’ walking directions spread apart beyond a certain critical angle, the orderly lane formation would break down into disorder.
The research team then tested their idea in a lab-designed crosswalk. Volunteers wearing uniquely coded hats walked across a pretended intersection (十字路口) while overhead cameras tracked their movements. The team varied starting points and walking angles across hundreds of trials, mapping how crowds flowed or clashed. By analyzing thousands of crossings, the team confirmed their prediction — when the average walking direction went beyond 13 degrees, orderly lines collapse into inefficient, potentially dangerous disorder.
“This isn’t just about math — it’s about real-world safety,” explains Bacik. “A shopping mall designed with this 13-degree rule in mind could prevent dangerous crowding, while subway stations might arrange exits to naturally guide people into efficient paths.”
The implications extend beyond urban design. Emergency planners could use these findings to design better escape routes, and Al systems might better predict crowd flows in smart cities. As Bacik’s team prepares to test their model in real life, one thing is clear: even in something as ordinary as walking, hidden patterns govern our behavior — and science is just beginning to understand them. Moreover, this study transforms an everyday observation into measurable facts, proving once again that mathematics can reveal order in the seeming chaos of everyday life.
12. What determines whether crowd movement becomes orderly?
A. The speed of movement.
B. The width of crossroads.
C. The number of people involved.
D. The angle of walking directions.
13. Which of the following best describes the research team?
A. Humble and practical.
B. Patient and confident.
C. Ambitious and independent.
D. Observant and analytical.
14. What is a practical value of the study?
A. Improving safety in public spaces.
B. Changing people’s walking habits.
C. Developing crowd tracking systems.
D. Assisting the government of small cities.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Principles for Intersection Design
B. Math’s Role in Solving Traffic Problems
C. The 13-Degree Rule: How Crowds Maintain Order
D. Movement Patterns: Why the New Research Matters

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。
We often fall into the trap of assuming rational (理性的) thought is naturally superior to intuitive (直觉的) responses. ____16____ In truth, we should find agreement between what our heart wants and what our reason says.
Rational thinking proves particularly valuable in certain situations. ____17____ Without it, we might rely too heavily on emotions, leading to poor decisions. Studies confirm that people who think rationally tend to perform better in both academic and professional settings. Moreover, it helps individuals analyze complex problems, allow for better planning and make well-informed choices.
____18____ People who are more analytic are seen less approachable, which may make them seem distant or unfeeling. As a result, they might struggle to build close relationships or communicate warmth in social situations.
Intuitive thinking, though sometimes imperfect, shows impressive effectiveness in many everyday situations. Chess masters instantly recognize strong moves, firefighters make life-saving decisions through instinct, and artists create through sudden inspiration — none of which could be achieved through slow, step-by-step analysis. These examples remind us that intuition is not the opposite of reason. ____19____
In our modern world of constant information, the ability to use both thinking styles becomes especially valuable. Life is not a problem to be solved by logic alone, nor a feeling to be trusted blindly. ____20____ In the end, to live well is to think with both the precision of a scientist and the grace of an artist — calculating when needed, but never silencing the inner voice that says, “This just feels right.”
A. This, however, is not the whole picture.
B. It allows us to weigh evidence objectively.
C. It’s experience that becomes quick and automatic.
D. Wisest decisions sing when reason and intuition harmonize.
E. Surprisingly, logical thinking promotes emotional intelligence.
F. However, sometimes intuition can be more effective than reasoning.
G. This black-and-white view overlooks the complexity of human thought.

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。
Ethan had always lived by checklists — precise and detailed. At school, he double-checked his answers, rewrote notes in perfect handwriting, and organized his pens by size and color. But the world often refused to follow his plan. A missed question, a group project gone off track, or even a messy desk could send him into hours of self-blame.
During a school event, he was struck by what was advertised on the poster of a pottery class, “Join us. Create, relax, and just be yourself.” He eagerly signed up, hoping it might ease the anxiety that had wrapped him around for long.
On the first day of their pottery workshop, Ethan arrived earlier, and spent almost an hour arranging and rearranging all the tools, the wheel, carving knives, brushes, and measuring cups... He carefully lined them up like surgical instruments. He had even watched twelve instructional videos the night before, determined to get everything right. Yet somehow, he couldn’t even make a simple bowl — his third attempt of the day had just exploded in the kiln (窑).
He wrote on his notebook with precision, “Attempt 3,400g stoneware, 21% water, Collapsed at 4.2cm height.” Maybe the curve (弧线) was just not standard enough, Ethan thought.
Ms. Alvarez, their instructor, approached Ethan and said with a warm smile, “Beginner’s tip. Don’t worry about making it perfect.” Ethan froze. The word “Perfect” hung in the air, sharp and cold, bringing back memories of last year’s science fair — when sleepless nights and silent tears had ended not in praise, but in a crushing headache.
Around him, the others were making uneven bowls and plates with funny-looking curves. Some were even laughing at their own “disasters”. No one seemed to mind getting it wrong. Ethan looked down at his own hands, still dusted with clay. Ethan forced a smile, turned to the soft clay on his table, and began kneading (揉黏土), ready for a fourth attempt.
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: “Forget about making it perfect.” Ms. Alvarez’s words gently landed beside him.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: “Now,” Ms. Alvarez said to Ethan with a smile, “let’s wait.”
