At first, he was afraid. But the need to know and understand was greater than his fear, so he went out. He soon learnt that the floor of the world was not flat like the floor of the cave. And he fell, screaming in fear. But he soon sat up, and started walking and looking around him. He met a squirrel, and a woodpecker, both of which moved away from him. So he learned that the world had things that stayed in one place, and other things that moved. He had beginner’s luck when he fell into a ptarmigan’s nest. In the nest were seven chicks. He realized this was meat, like his mother gave him. So he ate them all. As he walked away from the nest, the mother ptarmigan (雷鸟) attacked him. He fought back, biting her wing with his small teeth. He was excited and happy. He was fighting for meat, fighting to kill. It was what wolves did. He learnt another important lesson. Then he left the ptarmigan free and rested. As he watched her, something rushed down from above him, picked up the ptarmigan and flew back up into the sky. It was an eagle. He was learning. Live things were meat, but if they were big enough, live things could also hurt. It was better to eat small live things. Later something small jumped in front of him, so he put his paw on it. It was a young weasel (鼬鼠). It made strange noises, and soon the mother weasel appeared. She jumped at his neck and bit him with sharp teeth. She wasn’t big, but he didn’t know how dangerous weasels were. Suddenly she jumped, and bit into his throat. He tried to fight, but the weasel held on. The cub was sure to die, but luckily his mother, the she-wolf, heard his frightened calls and came to save him. 26. How many lessons did the gray cub learn in the story? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 27. Which is the right order of what happened to the gray cub? a. He fell down and felt quite afraid. b. He met a squirrel and a woodpecker. c. He was bitten in the throat and was dying. d. He saw something pick up the ptarmigan. e. He had a fight with the mother ptarmigan. A. a-b-e-d-c B. b-a-e-d-c C. a-b-d-e-c D. b-c-a-d-e 28. Which chart can best describe the gray cub’s feeling in the story? A. B. C. D. 29. What’s the best title for the story? A. The Law of Meat B. The Gray Cub’s Unusual Experience C. The Gray Cub in Danger D. Mothers’ Fights for Children 【答案】26. D 27. A 28. D 29. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了幼兽第一次走出洞穴探索世界的故事。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“He soon learnt that the floor of the world was not flat like the floor of the cave. ”，“So he learned that the world had things that stayed in one place, and other things that moved.”，“He was fighting for meat, fighting to kill. It was what wolves did. He learnt another important lesson.”以及“He was learning. Live things were meat, but if they were big enough, live things could also hurt. It was better to eat small live things.”可知，幼兽首先学会了世界上有些东西是动的，有些是不会动的；还学会了捕杀猎物；最后学到了外面的地不都像是洞中的地一样的平；猎物中大的东西可能会伤害自己，最好吃些小的东西。因此学会了四项经验。故选D。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“And he fell, screaming in fear.”可知，首先他摔倒了，害怕地尖叫；根据第二段“He met a squirrel, and a woodpecker…”可知，接下来他遇到了一只松鼠和一只啄木鸟；根据第三段“As he walked away from the nest, the mother ptarmigan (雷鸟) attacked him. He fought back, biting her wing with his small teeth. ”可知，他和雷鸟妈妈打斗；根据第四段“As he watched her, something rushed down from above him,picked up the ptarmigan and flew back up into the sky.”可知，他看到有东西叼走雷鸟；根据最后一段“Suddenly she jumped, and bit into his throat. He tried to fight, but the weasel held on. The cub was sure to die…”可知，幼兽被咬伤了喉咙，奄奄一息。正确的顺序是a-b-e-d-c，故选A。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“At first, he was afraid. But the need to know and understand was greater than his fear, so he went out. And he fell, screaming in fear.”可知一开始很害怕、好奇、恐惧；根据第三段“He was excited and happy.”可知他很高兴、兴奋；根据最后一段“the she-wolf, heard his frightened calls and came to save him.”可知他很惊恐。所以他的感受依次是害怕、好奇、害怕、高兴、兴奋，最后惊恐，故选D。 【29题详解】 最佳标题题。根据第一段“One day, while his mother was out hunting, the gray cub (幼兽) found the way out of the cave (洞穴).”可知，本文主要讲了这只幼兽第一次走出洞穴探索世界的故事，因此判断本文最好的标题为“幼兽的第一次冒险”，故选B。 （B） ①Have you ever wanted to squeeze (捏) a soft little cat or pretend to bite (假装咬) a baby’s foot? Why does this happen? Scientists are trying to figure it out. ②When something is so cute, people might have strong wishes like pressing, squeezing or biting them. This strange mix of feelings is called “cute aggression (侵略)”. It’s like your brain gets too full of joy and tries to balance it with playful aggression. ③Scientists believe this behavior is a way for our brains to manage strong emotions. When we see something cute, our reward system activates (奖赏系统激活), making us feel happy and want to care for it. But sometimes this happiness is too strong, so our brain uses “aggression” as a way to calm down—like a safety valve (安全阀). ④To better understand what is happening in our brain, in a study, researchers used EEG to monitor the brain activity of college students when they watch cute and less cute pictures. ⑤They also completed questionnaires including describing how strong they want to squeeze the cute animals. ⑥They found that people who had stronger wishes to squeeze cute animals had more activity in the parts of the brain that have to do with both emotion (情感) and reward. This suggests that cute aggression is a natural response linked to how our brains process strong positive feelings. ⑦Actually, most people experience cute aggression, and it doesn’t mean they want to hurt anything. In fact, it might help us control our emotions better so we can care for cute babies or animals. However, if these wishes turn into real harm to animals or people, that’s not normal and should be dealt with. ⑧So my dear students, next time you feel like “Nom, nom, nom” at a puppy’s face, remember: it’s just your brain’s way of keeping your emotions in balance. 30. Which of the following is TRUE when a person with EEG on watches the pictures of the dogs? A. Least brain activity will be tested when the person watches picture a. B. The person will squeeze the fewest bubbles when watching picture c. C. EEG is used as a safety valve to stop the person from squeezing bubbles. D. How many bubbles squeezed can’t reflect the strongness of “aggression”. 31. How does the writer like “cute aggression”? A. It is strange. B. It is cruel. C. It is common. D. It is cute. 32. Which of the following best shows the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 33. What is the best title for this passage? A. The Science Behind Cute Aggression B. The Most Wonderful Science Discovery C. A Way to Show Our Mixed Feelings D. The Importance of Balanced Emotions 【答案】30. A 31. C 32. D 33. A 【解析】 【导语】本文解释了为什么人们看到可爱的东西时会有捏或咬的冲动，科学家称之为“可爱侵略性”。这是大脑平衡过度快乐情绪的方式，研究通过脑电图和问卷验证了这一现象。这种现象是普遍的，并不代表真的想伤害事物，反而有助于控制情绪。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“They found that people who had stronger wishes to squeeze cute animals had more activity in the parts of the brain that have to do with both emotion (情感) and reward. This suggests that cute aggression is a natural response linked to how our brains process strong positive feelings.”可知，当人们看到越可爱的东西时，越想去捏这个东西，此时大脑的活动也越多。abc三个物体可爱的程度由小到大，因此在看图片a的时候，大脑的活动是最少的。故选A。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Actually, most people experience cute aggression, and it doesn’t mean they want to hurt anything.”可知，作者认为“可爱侵略”是常见的现象。故选C。 【32题详解】 篇章结构题。通读全文可见，文章首段(①)引出话题，②～⑦段围绕可爱侵略的原因、实验证明和影响展开，最后一段(⑧)总结。故选D。 【33题详解】 最佳标题题。文章主要探讨了“可爱侵略”的科学原理，因此最合适的标题是“The Science Behind Cute Aggression”。故选A。 （C） The first conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?” To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked. Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”. This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in the first interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together. There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well. 34. Why did the author carry out 10 years of research? A. To remove national concerns. B. To check out a potential bias. C. To strengthen human communication. D. To develop harmonious relationships. 35. What is one effect of people’s liking gap? A. Fewer chances of new projects. B. Underestimation of their ability. C. Bad relationships with people around. D. Low willingness to interact with others. 36. What does the author want to do in the last paragraph? A. Restate opinions. B. Deliver warnings. C. Give suggestions. D. Make a summary. 37. Which might be the best title for the text? A. Liking Gap May Influence Work Performances B. First Impressions Rely On Initial Conversations C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think D. How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume 【答案】34. B 35. D 36. C 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了人们在初次交谈后低估对方对自己的好感程度，即“喜欢差距”，围绕这一现象作者介绍了这种偏见会持续影响关系，同时作者就减少偏见给出了建议。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据“To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research.”可知，作者花费十年的时间进行研究是为了检查潜在的偏见。故选B。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together.”可知，人们的喜好差距的效应是与他人交往的意愿低，故选D。 【36题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段介绍了最小化偏见的策略，所以作者在最后一段想要给出一些建议，故选C。 【37题详解】 最佳标题题。本文主要介绍了人们在初次交谈后低估对方对自己的好感程度，即“喜欢差距”，围绕这一现象作者介绍了这种偏见会持续影响关系，同时作者就减少偏见给出了建议。文章围绕“喜欢差距”展开，而选项C“人们可能比你想象得更喜欢你”就是“喜欢差距”的体现，故选C。 （D） According to the latest inventory (编目), China’s total glacier (冰川) area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometers, with around 69,000 glaciers. Compared to the results of the first inventory from the 1960s to 2020, China’s glacier area has shrunk by 26 percent, with nearly 7,000 small glaciers disappearing. Compared to the second inventory, from 2008 to 2020, the glacier area reduced by about 6 percent, showing a rapid retreat (消融). The findings were shared on Friday in March 2025, the first World Day for Glaciers, as researchers presented China’s third glacier inventory at the third Chinese Conference of Cryospheric Science in Lingshui, Hainan province. Global glacier inventory efforts began in 1978, studying the distribution (分布) and volume (体积) of mountain glaciers. China’s first and second glacier inventories were published in 2002 and 2014, with research detailing changes in the country’s glaciers from the late 20th century to the early 21st century. “Glaciers are among the most sensitive and direct signs of climate (气候) change, and glacier inventories are surveys of glacier resources,” researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources explained. China began its first glacier inventory in 1978, led by scientist Shi Yafeng, as countries with glacier distributions worldwide began compiling (编制) their own inventories. The process took 24 years and was completed in 2002. The first inventory recorded about 46,000 glaciers in China, covering around 59,000 square kilometers. With global temperatures rising, China’s glaciers have continued to shrink, according to the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources. To better understand glacier distribution after 2000 the Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences began the second inventory in 2007, publishing the data set in 2014. The results showed that by 2008, China had around 48,000 glaciers covering about 52,000 square kilometers. China is the only major country to have completed three full glacier inventories, according to the institute. The United Nations has chosen March 21st as World Glacier Day starting from 2025. Glaciers are of great importance to the earth’s climate and water resources, but their rapid melting (融化) has brought many problems. Although glaciers are still shrinking, the good news is that the scientists all over the world are working hard to find ways to save them. ▲ 38. How does the writer start this passage? A. By telling stories. B. By asking questions. C. By comparing facts. D. By describing opinions. 39. Which of the following can show the results of the three inventories? A. B. C. D. 40. In which part of the website may you find this passage? A. Travel Guide B. Science Report C. Cultural Exchange D. Technology News 41. What will the writer probably continue to write in “ ▲ ”? A. How people help slow glaciers melting. B. How climate change influences glaciers. C. Why glaciers worldwide are melting rapidly. D. Why scientists pay attention to glaciers melting. 【答案】38. C 39. D 40. B 41. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了中国冰川最新编目的结果以及其对气候变化的敏感性，介绍了中国冰川的变化及其对环境的影响。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据“China’s total glacier area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometers, with around 69,000 glaciers”以及后续提到的不同编目的对比，文章通过比较不同编目的事实来开头。故选C。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The first inventory recorded about 46,000 glaciers in China, covering around 59,000 square kilometers.”和第二次结果“The results showed that by 2008, China had around 48,000 glaciers covering about 52,000 square kilometers.”的数据，结合“According to the latest inventory (编目), China’s total glacier (冰川) area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometers, with around 69,000 glaciers.”中最新的数据可知冰川的面积在逐年减少，图D符合以上数据表现。故选D。 40题详解】 推理判断题。文章介绍了中国冰川变化的情况，属于对科学研究的报道，因此最可能出现在“Science Report”类别。故选B。 【41题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章最后提到“scientists all over the world are working hard to find ways to save them”，推测接下来可能讨论科学家如何努力减缓冰川融化的措施。故选A。 第二节 阅读填空 ___42___ It could have been the time when you pronounced a simple word wrong in class, wore your T-shirt backwards, talked about someone else without realizing that they were right behind you, or secretly tried to take a picture of someone while the flash was on. Though these embarrassing moments don’t harm us a lot, they come back from time to time and make us feel upset. Even if these moments may have faded after some time, we would always remember the feeling of strong embarrassment. ___43___When these kinds of feelings return, they are known as a “cringe attack(羞愧综合症)”. I personally get a quite uncomfortable feeling when I think back on a party my parents took me to when I was younger. ___44___ My parents shouted at me—in front of everyone—for being so selfish.

Consider that you are not alone in your embarrassment—everyone fails or makes silly, embarrassing mistakes.

Most people would probably be very f___47___ and run away! That’s because gorillas have a very terrible appearance. Firstly, gorillas are very big. They can grow up to 2 metres tall and can be more than 200 kilograms. Secondly, gorillas can make a lot of noise. They can roar, b___48___ their chests and show show their teeth. In fact, these angry actions are very rare and male gorillas only do it when their families are under a___49___ . The t___50___ is, gorillas are incredibly intelligent, gentle and social animals that stay together in small family groups. The leader is the largest male, and is called the silverback. That’s because of the beautiful silver f___51___ on its back. Gorillas spend almost all of their time on the forest floor, eating and sleeping. They are mainly vegetarian, although they eat some insects. Young mountain gorillas often play together. They run around and climb trees. 【答案】47 (f)rightened 48. (b)eat 49. (a)ttack 50. (t)ruth 51. (f)ur 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲了尽管大猩猩因体型大、能制造噪音等可怕外表让人恐惧，但实际上它们是聪明、温和、群居的动物，银背大猩猩因背部银色毛发得名，且大部分时间在森林地面活动，以素食为主，幼崽常一起玩耍。 【47题详解】 句意：如果看到山地大猩猩，你会怎么做？大多数人可能会非常害怕并跑开！这是因为大猩猩外表很可怕。根据“run away”和“terrible appearance”可知，人们会感到恐惧。“frightened”作形容词表示“害怕的，受惊的”，符合语境。故填(f)rightened。 【48题详解】 句意：其次，大猩猩会制造很多噪音。它们会咆哮、拍打胸膛并露出牙齿。短语beat one’s chest“拍打胸膛”，与“roar”、“show their teeth”并列，描述大猩猩的威胁性动作。“beat”在此处表示“拍打”，符合语境。故填(b)eat。 【49题详解】 句意：事实上，这些愤怒的行为非常罕见，雄性大猩猩仅在家族受到攻击时才会这样做。根据“angry actions”可知，当家族处于危险情境时才会触发。“under attack”为固定短语，意为“受到攻击”，符合语境。“attack”作名词表示“攻击”，故填(a)ttack。 【50题详解】 句意：真相是，大猩猩是极其聪明、温和且具有社会性的动物，它们以小家庭群体生活在一起。根据“gorillas are incredibly intelligent, gentle and social animals that stay together in small family groups.”可知，此处强调与前文“可怕印象”相反的事实。“truth”作名词表示“真相，事实”，“The truth is...”为常见表达，意为“事实是……”，符合语境。故填(t)ruth。 【51题详解】 句意：那是因为它背上有美丽的银色毛发。根据“silverback”的名称来源可知，此处指背部的毛发。“fur”作名词表示“软毛，毛发”，符合语境。故填(f)ur。 第二节 完成句子 根据所给的汉语内容，用英语完成下列句子。（每空限填一词） 52. 自 2018 年贸易战开始以来，许多中国科技公司已被禁止在美国市场销售产品。 Since the trade war started in 2018, many Chinese tech companies ______ ______ ______ from ______ products in the US market. 【答案】 ①. have ②. been ③. stopped##banned ④. selling 【解析】 【详解】根据“Since the trade war started in 2018”可知，主句时态是现在完成时；stop/ban在此处可以表示“禁止”；sell“出售”，from是介词，后跟动名词作宾语。主语Chinese tech companies和动词stop/ban是动宾关系，所以应用现在完成时的被动语态，结构是have been+过去分词。故填have；been；stopped/banned；selling。 53. 贸易战对两国经济的伤害是多么严重啊！ ______ ______ the trade war has harmed the economies of both countries! 【答案】 ①. How ②. seriously 【解析】 【详解】根据题干可知，此句是感叹句，seriously“严重地”，副词修饰动词，所以感叹句应用结构How+副词+主语+谓语。故填How；seriously。 54. 许多专家认为贸易战对全球经济有负面影响。 Many experts believe ______ the trade war ______ a negative ______ ______ the global economy. 【答案】 ①. that ②. has ③. effect##impact##influence ④. on 【解析】 【详解】believe后跟的是宾语从句，从句是完整的句子，可以用that引导；have a negative effect/impact/influence on，表示“对……有负面影响”。主语是第三人称单数，动词用三单形式。故填that；has；effect/impact/influence；on。 55. 双方必须采取措施避免进一步冲突。 Both sides must ______ ______ ______ ______ further conflicts. 【答案】 ①. take ②. action ③. to ④. avoid 【解析】 【详解】take action to do sth“采取措施做某事”，must是情态动词，后接动词原形。avoid“避免”。故填take；action；to；avoid。 56. 2020年，中美签署了第一阶段贸易协议。直到双方在 2025 年完成谈判，中美才会签署第二阶段贸易协议。 China and the US signed the Phase One trade agreement in 2020. China and the US ______ ______ the Phase Two trade agreement ______ they ______ talks in 2025. 【答案】 ①. won’t ②. sign ③. until ④. finish 【解析】 【详解】not...until...“直到……才……”，根据“in 2025”可知，这里应用一般将来时，否定形式是won’t；sign“签署”；finish“完成”。故填won’t；sign；until；finish。 第三节 书面表达 57. 请你根据下表中所提供的信息以“Learn to express thanks”为题，用英语写一篇演讲稿。 背景 1. 作为独生子女，只关心自己 2. 认为上中学时吃好穿好是应该的 3. 走向社会后没有感恩意识 4. 行为方式令人担忧 学会感恩 1. 感谢社会提供良好的教育机会 2. 感谢父母…… 3. 感谢老师…… 4. 感谢朋友…… 注意： 1词数：80词左右。开头结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 2不得提及所在学校及本人姓名。 Learn to express thanks Good morning, boys and girls! The topic of my speech today is “Learn to express thanks”. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Learn to express thanks Good morning, boys and girls!  The topic of my speech today is “Learn to express thanks”. As we all know, most students are the only child of their family. They care only about themselves. And they want to eat well and wear fashionable clothes at school. When they leave school and enter society, they don’t show any sense of thanks. As far as I am concerned, this behavior is not correct. As students, we should learn to express thanks. Because of society, we can have a chance to receive good education. And our parents also support us to go to school. Our teachers teach us much knowledge, so we should thank them. We should also thank our friends because they give us courage and support. In the future, we should never forget our society, parents, teachers and so on. At present, we should study harder in order to make our country more beautiful.

At first, he was afraid. But the need to know and understand was greater than his fear, so he went out. He soon learnt that the floor of the world was not flat like the floor of the cave. And he fell, screaming in fear. But he soon sat up, and started walking and looking around him. He met a squirrel, and a woodpecker, both of which moved away from him. So he learned that the world had things that stayed in one place, and other things that moved. He had beginner’s luck when he fell into a ptarmigan’s nest. In the nest were seven chicks. He realized this was meat like his mother gave him. So he ate them all. As he walked away from the nest, the mother ptarmigan (雷鸟) attacked him. He fought back, biting her wing with his small teeth. He was excited and happy. He was fighting for meat, fighting to kill. It was what wolves did. He learnt another important lesson. Then he left the ptarmigan free and rested. As he watched her, something rushed down from above him, picked up the ptarmigan and flew back up into the sky. It was an eagle. He was learning. Live things were meat, but if they were big enough, live things could also hurt. It was better to eat small live things. Later something small jumped in front of him, so he put his paw on it. It was a young weasel (鼬鼠). It made strange noises, and soon the mother weasel appeared. She jumped at his neck and bit him with sharp teeth. She wasn’t big, but he didn’t know how dangerous weasels were. Suddenly she jumped, and bit into his throat. He tried to fight, but the weasel held on. The cub was sure to die, but luckily his mother, the she-wolf, heard his frightened calls and came to save him. 26. How many lessons did the gray cub learn in the story? A. One. B. Two. C. Three. D. Four. 27. Which is the right order of what happened to the gray cub? a. He fell down and felt quite afraid. b. He met a squirrel and a woodpecker. c. He was bitten in the throat and was dying. d. He saw something pick up the ptarmigan. e. He had a fight with the mother ptarmigan. A. a-b-e-d-c B. b-a-e-d-c C. a-b-d-e-c D. b-c-a-d-e 28. Which chart can best describe the gray cub’s feeling in the story? A. B. C. D. 29. What’s the best title for the story? A The Law of Meat B. The Gray Cub’s Unusual Experience C. The Gray Cub in Danger D. Mothers’ Fights for Children （B） ①Have you ever wanted to squeeze (捏) a soft little cat or pretend to bite (假装咬) a baby’s foot? Why does this happen? Scientists are trying to figure it out. ②When something is so cute, people might have strong wishes like pressing, squeezing or biting them. This strange mix of feelings is called “cute aggression (侵略)”. It’s like your brain gets too full of joy and tries to balance it with playful aggression. ③Scientists believe this behavior is a way for our brains to manage strong emotions. When we see something cute, our reward system activates (奖赏系统激活), making us feel happy and want to care for it. But sometimes this happiness is too strong, so our brain uses “aggression” as a way to calm down—like a safety valve (安全阀). ④To better understand what is happening in our brain, in a study, researchers used EEG to monitor the brain activity of college students when they watch cute and less cute pictures. ⑤They also completed questionnaires including describing how strong they want to squeeze the cute animals. ⑥They found that people who had stronger wishes to squeeze cute animals had more activity in the parts of the brain that have to do with both emotion (情感) and reward. This suggests that cute aggression is a natural response linked to how our brains process strong positive feelings. ⑦Actually, most people experience cute aggression, and it doesn’t mean they want to hurt anything. In fact, it might help us control our emotions better so we can care for cute babies or animals. However, if these wishes turn into real harm to animals or people, that’s not normal and should be dealt with. ⑧So my dear students, next time you feel like “Nom, nom, nom” at a puppy’s face, remember: it’s just your brain’s way of keeping your emotions in balance. 30. Which of the following is TRUE when a person with EEG on watches the pictures of the dogs? A. Least brain activity will be tested when the person watches picture a. B. The person will squeeze the fewest bubbles when watching picture c. C. EEG is used as a safety valve to stop the person from squeezing bubbles. D. How many bubbles squeezed can’t reflect the strongness of “aggression”. 31. How does the writer like “cute aggression”? A. It is strange. B. It is cruel. C. It is common. D. It is cute. 32. Which of the following best shows the structure of this passage? A. B. C. D. 33. What is the best title for this passage? A. The Science Behind Cute Aggression B. The Most Wonderful Science Discovery C. A Way to Show Our Mixed Feelings D. The Importance of Balanced Emotions （C） The first conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?” To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked. Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”. This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in the first interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together. There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well. 34. Why did the author carry out 10 years of research? A. To remove national concerns. B To check out a potential bias. C. To strengthen human communication. D. To develop harmonious relationships. 35. What is one effect of people’s liking gap? A. Fewer chances of new projects. B. Underestimation of their ability. C. Bad relationships with people around. D. Low willingness to interact with others. 36. What does the author want to do in the last paragraph? A. Restate opinions. B. Deliver warnings. C. Give suggestions. D. Make a summary. 37. Which might be the best title for the text? A. Liking Gap May Influence Work Performances B. First Impressions Rely On Initial Conversations C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think D How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume （D） According to the latest inventory (编目), China’s total glacier (冰川) area around 2020 was about 46,000 square kilometers, with around 69,000 glaciers. Compared to the results of the first inventory from the 1960s to 2020, China’s glacier area has shrunk by 26 percent, with nearly 7,000 small glaciers disappearing. Compared to the second inventory, from 2008 to 2020, the glacier area reduced by about 6 percent, showing a rapid retreat (消融). The findings were shared on Friday in March 2025, the first World Day for Glaciers, as researchers presented China’s third glacier inventory at the third Chinese Conference of Cryospheric Science in Lingshui, Hainan province. Global glacier inventory efforts began in 1978, studying the distribution (分布) and volume (体积) of mountain glaciers. China’s first and second glacier inventories were published in 2002 and 2014, with research detailing changes in the country’s glaciers from the late 20th century to the early 21st century. “Glaciers are among the most sensitive and direct signs of climate (气候) change, and glacier inventories are surveys of glacier resources,” researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources explained. China began its first glacier inventory in 1978, led by scientist Shi Yafeng, as countries with glacier distributions worldwide began compiling (编制) their own inventories. The process took 24 years and was completed in 2002. The first inventory recorded about 46,000 glaciers in China, covering around 59,000 square kilometers. With global temperatures rising, China’s glaciers have continued to shrink, according to the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources. To better understand glacier distribution after 2000, the Cold and Arid Regions Environmental and Engineering Research Institute of the Chinese Academy of Sciences began the second inventory in 2007, publishing the data set in 2014. The results showed that by 2008, China had around 48,000 glaciers covering about 52,000 square kilometers. China is the only major country to have completed three full glacier inventories, according to the institute. The United Nations has chosen March 21st as World Glacier Day starting from 2025. Glaciers are of great importance to the earth’s climate and water resources, but their rapid melting (融化) has brought many problems. Although glaciers are still shrinking, the good news is that the scientists all over the world are working hard to find ways to save them. ▲ 38. How does the writer start this passage? A. By telling stories. B. By asking questions. C. By comparing facts. D. By describing opinions. 39. Which of the following can show the results of the three inventories? A. B. C. D. 40. In which part of the website may you find this passage? A. Travel Guide B. Science Report C. Cultural Exchange D. Technology News 41. What will the writer probably continue to write in “ ▲ ”? A. How people help slow glaciers melting. B. How climate change influences glaciers. C. Why glaciers worldwide are melting rapidly. D. Why scientists pay attention to glaciers melting. 第二节 阅读填空 ___42___ It could have been the time when you pronounced a simple word wrong in class, wore your T-shirt backwards, talked about someone else without realizing that they were right behind you, or secretly tried to take a picture of someone while the flash was on. Though these embarrassing moments don’t harm us a lot, they come back from time to time and make us feel upset. Even if these moments may have faded after some time, we would always remember the feeling of strong embarrassment. ___43___When these kinds of feelings return, they are known as a “cringe attack(羞愧综合症)”. I personally get a quite uncomfortable feeling when I think back on a party my parents took me to when I was younger. ___44___ My parents shouted at me—in front of everyone—for being so selfish. From then on, every time I put a strawberry into my mouth, my brain just throws that embarrassing scene back. Why do these “cringe attacks” still pop up in our daily lives even though the actual events happened weeks, months, or even years ago? According to researchers, our brains give special attention to feelings that can be easily noticed. ___45___ If you have a highly embarrassing or highly emotional moment, no matter what it is, your brain will try to catch it. ___46___ Well, we can start by trying to be more objective about our past selves. Consider that you are not alone in your embarrassment—everyone fails or makes silly, embarrassing mistakes. Instead of just trying to forget what we did, we should try to accept who we were at that moment and think about how we can change for the better. A. The stronger the feeling is, the stronger the memory will be. B. In fact, these feelings may last for years. C. I ate a bowl of strawberries by myself. D. So how can we deal with this? E. All of us may have experienced embarrassing moments. 四、写作 第一节 语篇填词 阅读短文，根据上下文和所给单词的首字母写出所缺单词。注意使用正确形式，每空限填一词。答卷时，要求写出完整单词。 What would you do if you saw a mountain gorilla?
