S., who went viral during his recent trip to China. His videos from this trip got millions of views and not just on YouTube, but also reposted across Chinese social platforms like Bilibili, Xiaohongshu, and Douyin. The Chinese Embassy in the U. S. posted about Speed’s China trip really on Twitter. Speed’s China trip showed people a different side of China — warm, real, full of life. People call him “Jia Kang Ge” because he is extremely energetic in front of the camera, always jumping around and shouting. Netizens gave him this nickname as a playful joke, but it also carries a sense of affection. The literal meaning of “Jia Kang Ge” is hyperthyroidism (甲状腺机能亢进). Basically, hyper energy and chaotic charm. Speed, an American YouTuber, has gained immense attention for his travel experiences in China. One of his livestreams (直播) from China hit three million views. He not only visited multiple cities but also immersed (使……沉浸于) himself in the local culture. He wore a big floral padded jacket, tried stinky tofu, and danced in public squares with kids. He walked the streets of Chengdu, surrounded by fans. He wasn’t just a tourist snapping pictures. Even though he is an international star, in China, he was completely natural — zero celebrity distance. People find him down to earth. Netizens say he is “crazy but real”. The way he genuinely explored China made a lot of people think: “Maybe we should be more open to other cultures, too.” One of the netizens says, “You can feel his sincere curiosity and reactions. China stream has been by far the best stream ever for Speed. He went up against a lot of pressure not to go to China, but he did. It turned out amazing.” 4. The underlined word “viral” in the first paragraph probably means ________. A. widespread B. less popular C. confused D. critical 5. Why do people call IShowSpeed “Jia Kang Ge”? A. Because he likes Chinese food. B. Because he speaks Chinese fluently. C. Because he is extremely energetic on camera. D. Because he looks like a Chinese celebrity. 6.

The netizens’ attitude towards IShowSpeed’s China trip is ________. A. doubtful B. supportive C. indifferent D. negative 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要讲述了美国网红IShowSpeed的中国之旅及其引发的积极反响。 【4题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段“His videos from this trip got millions of views and not just on YouTube, but also reposted across Chinese social platforms like Bilibili, Xiaohongshu, and Douyin.(他此次旅行拍摄的视频获得了数百万次的阅读量，不仅在 YouTube 上如此，还在中国的一些社交平台上（如哔哩哔哩、小红书和抖音）被大量转发。)”可知，IShowSpeed中国之行所拍摄的视频被广泛传播，他本人也因在网上被广泛传播而走红，故viral表示“广泛传播”。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“People call him “Jia Kang Ge” because he is extremely energetic in front of the camera, always jumping around and shouting.(人们称他为“甲亢哥”，因为他在镜头前总是精力充沛，总是蹦蹦跳跳、大声喊叫。)”可知，人们称他为“甲亢哥”，是因为他在镜头前非常充满活力、精力充沛。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“He not only visited multiple cities but also immersed (使……沉浸于) himself in the local culture. He wore a big floral padded jacket, tried stinky tofu, and danced in public squares with kids. He walked the streets of Chengdu, surrounded by fans. （他不仅游览了多个城市，还深入体验了当地的风土人情。他穿着一件大大的印花棉质夹克，品尝了臭豆腐，还在公共广场上与孩子们一起跳舞。他漫步在成都的街头，周围簇拥着众多粉丝。)”可知，IShowSpeed在中国参加了不同的文化活动，并与当地人亲密互动。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Netizens say he is “crazy but real”.(网友们说他“疯狂但真实”。)”和“One of the netizens says, “You can feel his sincere curiosity and reactions. China stream has been by far the best stream ever for Speed. He went up against a lot of pressure not to go to China, but he did. It turned out amazing.”(一位网友说道：“你能感受到他那真诚的好奇心以及所做出的反应。对于Speed来说，中国的直播一直是最出色的直播之一。他面临着巨大的压力，担心自己会去不了中国，但他还是去了，结果真是太棒了。”)”可知，网友们对他的中国之行是非常支持和认可的。故选B。 C Plastics have been found from the top of Mount Qomolangma to newly-formed beaches in Hawaii. The amount of plastic in our environment is shocking. What can we do about it? I’m inspired by Kate Nelson, who has lived without using single-use plastic for over ten years. Kate is also the founder of See the Mermaids, an organization focusing on stopping human-sourced ocean pollution through education and community action. She recently wrote an inspiring and practical guidebook I Quit Plastics: and you can too, which is full of information and tips on how to cook, clean, shop, wear and live plastic-free. Upon first opening, you will see a recipe for Cashew Cheese that looks amazing! Not only does this book provide many delicious recipes, but also explores interesting problems about plastic pollution. For example, Kate explores the problems about plastics and social justice, including plastic privilege (特权). She points out that wealthier countries, such as the USA, export their plastic waste to Southeast Asia, but many of these countries cannot process their own waste. In addition, most of the affordable food, though processed and unhealthy, is heavily packaged in plastic. People that live in “food deserts” in cities and depend on comer stores have no choice when it comes to avoiding plastics. Kate writes in the book, ‘Not everyone will have bulk (散装) food stores or farmers’ markets near where they live.” Kate’s writing is easy to read without sounding preachy (说教的). Her explanations and reasoning are clear. From food to beauty to cleaning, Kate’s practical recipes and tips make it easy for everyone to reduce their chances of using single-use plastic. She develops effective strategies that others can easily adopt and offers clear steps to help people improve on the plastic quitting journey. 8. What phenomenon (现象) does the author describe in the first paragraph? A. The high-altitude exploration achievements on Mount Qomolangma. B. The widespread existence of plastic waste in the environment. C. The increasing popularity of newly-formed beaches in Hawaii. D. The unique living style of Kate Nelson without single-use plastic. 9. Which of the following is probably talked about in Kate’s guidebook? A. Famous persons. B. The latest news. C. Classic music. D. Reusable shopping bags. 10. What problem are people in “food deserts” facing? A. They eat too much unhealthy food. B. They can’t afford to buy enough food. C. They can’t avoid plastic-packaged food. D. They prefer bulk food to packaged food. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An environment report. B. A book review. C. An author’s introduction. D. A scientific research. 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Kate Nelson的书籍《I Quit Plastics: and you can too》，该书提供了减少塑料使用的实用建议（如烹饪、清洁和购物技巧），并探讨了塑料污染问题及其社会影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The amount of plastic in our environment is shocking.(我们所处环境中的塑料数量之多令人震惊。)”可知，作者在第一段主要描述了环境中广泛存在塑料垃圾的问题。故选B。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“She recently wrote an inspiring and practical guidebook《 I Quit Plastics: and you can too》, which is full of information and tips on how to cook, clean, shop, wear and live plastic-free.(她最近撰写了一本鼓舞人心且实用的指南书I Quit Plastics: and you can too，书中包含了大量关于如何在烹饪、清洁、购物、着装以及生活中实现无塑料化的信息和建议。)”可推知，书中主要是建议人们不使用塑料制品，所以可能会建议人们使用环保购物袋。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“People that live in “food deserts” in cities and depend on comer stores have no choice when it comes to avoiding plastics.(生活在城市“食品荒漠”且依赖街边小店为生的人们，在避免使用塑料制品方面已别无选择。)”可知，生活在“食品荒漠”中的人们无法避免购买用塑料包装的食品。故选C。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“She recently wrote an inspiring and practical guidebook((她最近撰写了一本鼓舞人心且实用的指南书)”和最后一段“Kate’s writing is easy to read without sounding preachy (说教的). Her explanations and reasoning are clear.(Kate的文笔通俗易懂，而且不会显得说教意味浓重。她的解释和论证都清晰明了。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要介绍并评论了Kate的书籍，故很可能出自书评。故选B。 D Nowadays, social running is popular in cities globally. Running clubs, which attracted competitive runners at first, have spread worldwide and now appeal to a broader audience for support, motivation, and friendship. The rise of social media and fitness apps has changed running clubs. Online platforms (平台) enable runners to connect, organize events, and track progress, making running more accessible. Running with others helps maintain a conversational pace and build a community. Danielle Burnett, leader of a running club, recently hosted her first group run. “At the start, people were chatting just a bit,” she says. “Then, when we came back, it felt like connections had been made. People were already talking about meeting up for runs later that week.” Rachel Goldberg, a marriage and family expert, has noticed that people are much more willing to open up during exercise. “If you are near somebody but not necessarily facing them eye to eye, you might just feel less threatened,” she says, “This can lead to deeper conversations and stronger connections and also a great way to break down social anxiety.” One reason for this may be that running stimulates (刺激) endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. “They can make you feel less stressed, and everything around you starts to seem more positive,” says Goldberg. Additionally, keeping a conversational pace while running with friends offers unique physical benefits, too. Conversational running is often associated with Zone 2 training, which includes working out at an intensity (强度) of 60 to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate. “Doing low-intensity exercise builds patience so you’ll be able to go longer and further,” says Kristen, a running coach. “You’re also going to recover faster and reduce your risk of injuries.” 12. What has contributed to the changes of running clubs? A. The decrease in the number of runners. B. The development of digital platforms. C. The efforts of running club leaders. D. The popularity of running in rural areas. 13. What does Goldberg explain about social running? A. Its starting point. B. Its appeal for group runs. C. Its impact on physical fitness. D. Its role in social connection. 14. What advantage does Zone 2 training mainly offer? A. It develops the patience of runners. B. It improves the speed of running. C. It increases the intensity of exercise. D. It promotes the quick growth of muscles. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Popularity of Social Running B. The Benefits of Running Clubs C. Social Running: More Than Just a Workout D. Running Clubs: More Than a gathering place 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要围绕社交跑步这一现象展开，阐述了社交跑步在全球城市的流行情况、社交媒体和健身应用对跑步俱乐部的影响、社交跑步在建立人际关系和缓解社交焦虑方面的作用，以及与朋友边跑边聊带来的独特身体益处等方面内容。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“The rise of social media and fitness apps has changed running clubs. Online platforms (平台) enable runners to connect, organize events, and track progress, making running more accessible. (社交媒体和健身应用的兴起改变了跑步俱乐部。在线平台让跑步者能够相互联系、组织活动并跟踪进度，使跑步变得更加便捷)”可知，数字平台（在线平台）的发展促使了跑步俱乐部的改变。故选B。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段的“Rachel Goldberg, a marriage and family expert, has noticed that people are much more willing to open up during exercise. ‘If you are near somebody but not necessarily facing them eye to eye, you might just feel less threatened,’ she says, ‘This can lead to deeper conversations and stronger connections and also a great way to break down social anxiety. (婚姻家庭专家雷切尔·戈德堡注意到，人们在运动时更愿意敞开心扉。她说：‘如果你在某人附近，但不一定与他们面对面，你可能就不会感到那么受威胁。这可以引发更深入的对话，建立更紧密的联系，也是缓解社交焦虑的好方法。’)”可知，戈德堡解释了社交跑步在社交联系方面的作用。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的“Conversational running is often associated with Zone 2 training, which includes working out at an intensity (强度) of 60 to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate. “Doing low-intensity exercise builds patience so you’ll be able to go longer and further,” says Kristen, a running coach. (对话式跑步通常与区域2训练有关，其中包括以最大心率的60%到70%的强度进行锻炼。进行低强度运动可以培养耐力，这样你就能跑得更久、更远)”可知，2区训练（低强度运动）主要提供的好处是培养跑步者的耐力。故选A。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段的“Nowadays, social running is popular in cities globally. (如今，社交跑步在全球城市中很受欢迎)”及全文内容可知，文章首先指出社交跑步在全球城市中很受欢迎，接着阐述了社交媒体和健身应用对跑步俱乐部的影响，以及社交跑步在建立人际关系、缓解社交焦虑和带来身体益处等方面的作用。这表明社交跑步不仅仅是一种锻炼方式，还具有社交和健康等多方面的价值。C选项“社交跑步：不仅仅是一种锻炼”准确地概括了文章的主旨，可作为本文标题。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。 Using AI Wisely: A Guide for Students AI tools like Deepseek are becoming popular study helpers.

At school, she rarely spoke to her classmates or teachers. She would sit at the back of the classroom, her head down, avoiding eye contact. Her teachers often called on her, but she would only give short, quiet answers before closing herself off again. One day, her English teacher, Mrs. James, noticed Ava’s love for stories during a creative writing task. “Ava,” Mrs. James said after class, “I think you have a wonderful imagination.Have you ever thought about joining the drama club? We’re putting on a play next month, and I believe you’d be perfect for the lead role.” Ava’s face turned red, and she shook her head quickly. “No, I can’t. I’m not good at speaking in front of people. I’d just embarrass myself. I’m afraid to fail.” Mrs. James smiled gently. “I understand how you feel, but sometimes, we need to step out of our comfort zones and try new things to see how much we can grow. Just give it a try. You might surprise yourself.” Ava hesitated but finally agreed to try out for the role. To her shock, she was chosen for the lead role. The weeks leading up to the play were filled with practice sessions. At first, Ava struggled to speak loudly enough for others to hear. Her fellow actors, however, were supportive. “You’ve got this, Ava!” one of them said during a practice. “Just imagine you’re telling a story to your friends.” Slowly, Ava began to open up. She practiced her lines every night, and her confidence grew. On the night of the performance, she stood backstage, her hands trembling. She took a deep breath and reminded herself of Mrs. James’s words. 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。 As the curtains opened, Ava stepped onto the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Backstage, Ava couldn’t stop smiling as she saw Mrs. James approaching her. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 As the curtains opened, Ava stepped onto the stage. When Ava began her first lines, her voice was soft but clear. As the play went on, she became less nervous. She moved across the stage with ease, her voice growing stronger and filled with emotion. When the play ended, there was a moment of quietness before the audience burst into loud clapping. Ava had done it — she had faced her fear and succeeded! At the moment, the first thing that came to her mind was to thank Mrs. James. Backstage, Ava couldn’t stop smiling as she saw Mrs.James approaching her. She thanked Mrs. James. “You believed in me when I was unsure of myself,” Ava said.Mrs. James smiled and replied, “You did this all on your own. I just gave you a little push.” For the first time, Ava felt proud of herself. She realized that trying something new had allowed her to discover a part of herself she never knew existed. The fear of failure no longer held her back, and she knew this was just the beginning of many more opportunities to come. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，主要讲述了害羞的女孩艾娃在英语老师的鼓励下，克服内心的恐惧，参加学校戏剧社并成功完成演出的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“幕布拉开时，艾娃走上舞台。”可知，第一段可描写艾娃在舞台上的表演过程，从开始时声音轻柔到逐渐放松、充满感情，以及表演结束后观众的反应。 ②由第二段首句内容“在后台，当艾娃看到詹姆斯夫人走近她时，她忍不住笑了。”可知，第二段可描写艾娃在后台与老师的互动，艾娃向老师表达感谢，老师对艾娃进行鼓励，艾娃意识到自己的成长并对未来充满信心。 2续写线索：上台表演 —— 逐渐投入 —— 表演成功 —— 观众鼓掌 —— 后台致谢 —— 感悟成长 3.词汇激活 行为类： ①开始：begin/start ②移动：move across/move around ③结束：end/finish/come to an end 情绪类： ①紧张的：nervous/tense/uneasy ②害怕：fear/scare 【点睛】【高分句型1】When Ava began her first lines, her voice was soft but clear.

His videos from this trip got millions of views and not just on YouTube, but also reposted across Chinese social platforms like Bilibili, Xiaohongshu, and Douyin. The Chinese Embassy in the U. S. posted about Speed’s China trip really on Twitter. Speed’s China trip showed people a different side of China — warm, real, full of life. People call him “Jia Kang Ge” because he is extremely energetic in front of the camera, always jumping around and shouting. Netizens gave him this nickname as a playful joke, but it also carries a sense of affection. The literal meaning of “Jia Kang Ge” is hyperthyroidism (甲状腺机能亢进). Basically, hyper energy and chaotic charm. Speed, an American YouTuber, has gained immense attention for his travel experiences in China. One of his livestreams (直播) from China hit three million views. He not only visited multiple cities but also immersed (使……沉浸于) himself in the local culture. He wore a big floral padded jacket, tried stinky tofu, and danced in public squares with kids. He walked the streets of Chengdu, surrounded by fans. He wasn’t just a tourist snapping pictures. Even though he is an international star, in China, he was completely natural — zero celebrity distance. People find him down to earth. Netizens say he is “crazy but real”. The way he genuinely explored China made a lot of people think: “Maybe we should be more open to other cultures, too.” One of the netizens says, “You can feel his sincere curiosity and reactions. China stream has been by far the best stream ever for Speed. He went up against a lot of pressure not to go to China, but he did. It turned out amazing.” 4. The underlined word “viral” in the first paragraph probably means ________. A. widespread B. less popular C. confused D. critical 5. Why do people call IShowSpeed “Jia Kang Ge”? A. Because he likes Chinese food. B. Because he speaks Chinese fluently. C. Because he is extremely energetic on camera. D. Because he looks like a Chinese celebrity. 6.

C. He participated in various cultural activities and interacted closely with locals. D. He only visited big cities and avoided small-town experiences. 7. The netizens’ attitude towards IShowSpeed’s China trip is ________. A. doubtful B. supportive C. indifferent D. negative C Plastics have been found from the top of Mount Qomolangma to newly-formed beaches in Hawaii. The amount of plastic in our environment is shocking. What can we do about it? I’m inspired by Kate Nelson, who has lived without using single-use plastic for over ten years. Kate is also the founder of See the Mermaids, an organization focusing on stopping human-sourced ocean pollution through education and community action. She recently wrote an inspiring and practical guidebook I Quit Plastics: and you can too, which is full of information and tips on how to cook, clean, shop, wear and live plastic-free. Upon first opening, you will see a recipe for Cashew Cheese that looks amazing! Not only does this book provide many delicious recipes, but also explores interesting problems about plastic pollution. For example, Kate explores the problems about plastics and social justice, including plastic privilege (特权). She points out that wealthier countries, such as the USA, export their plastic waste to Southeast Asia, but many of these countries cannot process their own waste. In addition, most of the affordable food, though processed and unhealthy, is heavily packaged in plastic. People that live in “food deserts” in cities and depend on comer stores have no choice when it comes to avoiding plastics. Kate writes in the book, ‘Not everyone will have bulk (散装) food stores or farmers’ markets near where they live.” Kate’s writing is easy to read without sounding preachy (说教的). Her explanations and reasoning are clear. From food to beauty to cleaning, Kate’s practical recipes and tips make it easy for everyone to reduce their chances of using single-use plastic. She develops effective strategies that others can easily adopt and offers clear steps to help people improve on the plastic quitting journey. 8. What phenomenon (现象) does the author describe in the first paragraph? A. The high-altitude exploration achievements on Mount Qomolangma. B. The widespread existence of plastic waste in the environment. C. The increasing popularity of newly-formed beaches in Hawaii. D. The unique living style of Kate Nelson without single-use plastic. 9. Which of the following is probably talked about in Kate’s guidebook? A. Famous persons. B. The latest news. C. Classic music. D. Reusable shopping bags. 10. What problem are people in “food deserts” facing? A. They eat too much unhealthy food. B. They can’t afford to buy enough food. C. They can’t avoid plastic-packaged food. D. They prefer bulk food to packaged food. 11. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. An environment report. B. A book review. C. An author’s introduction. D. A scientific research. D Nowadays, social running is popular in cities globally. Running clubs, which attracted competitive runners at first, have spread worldwide and now appeal to a broader audience for support, motivation, and friendship. The rise of social media and fitness apps has changed running clubs. Online platforms (平台) enable runners to connect, organize events, and track progress, making running more accessible. Running with others helps maintain a conversational pace and build a community. Danielle Burnett, leader of a running club, recently hosted her first group run. “At the start, people were chatting just a bit,” she says. “Then, when we came back, it felt like connections had been made. People were already talking about meeting up for runs later that week.” Rachel Goldberg, a marriage and family expert, has noticed that people are much more willing to open up during exercise. “If you are near somebody but not necessarily facing them eye to eye, you might just feel less threatened,” she says, “This can lead to deeper conversations and stronger connections and also a great way to break down social anxiety.” One reason for this may be that running stimulates (刺激) endorphins, the body’s natural feel-good chemicals. “They can make you feel less stressed, and everything around you starts to seem more positive,” says Goldberg. Additionally, keeping a conversational pace while running with friends offers unique physical benefits, too. Conversational running is often associated with Zone 2 training, which includes working out at an intensity (强度) of 60 to 70 percent of your maximum heart rate. “Doing low-intensity exercise builds patience so you’ll be able to go longer and further,” says Kristen, a running coach. “You’re also going to recover faster and reduce your risk of injuries.” 12. What has contributed to the changes of running clubs? A. The decrease in the number of runners. B. The development of digital platforms. C. The efforts of running club leaders. D. The popularity of running in rural areas. 13. What does Goldberg explain about social running? A. Its starting point. B. Its appeal for group runs. C. Its impact on physical fitness. D. Its role in social connection. 14. What advantage does Zone 2 training mainly offer? A. It develops the patience of runners. B. It improves the speed of running. C. It increases the intensity of exercise. D. It promotes the quick growth of muscles. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. The Popularity of Social Running B. The Benefits of Running Clubs C. Social Running: More Than Just a Workout D. Running Clubs: More Than a gathering place 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。 Using AI Wisely: A Guide for Students AI tools like Deepseek are becoming popular study helpers.

At school, she rarely spoke to her classmates or teachers. She would sit at the back of the classroom, her head down, avoiding eye contact. Her teachers often called on her, but she would only give short, quiet answers before closing herself off again. One day, her English teacher, Mrs. James, noticed Ava’s love for stories during a creative writing task. “Ava,” Mrs. James said after class, “I think you have a wonderful imagination.Have you ever thought about joining the drama club? We’re putting on a play next month, and I believe you’d be perfect for the lead role.” Ava’s face turned red, and she shook her head quickly. “No, I can’t. I’m not good at speaking in front of people. I’d just embarrass myself. I’m afraid to fail.” Mrs. James smiled gently. “I understand how you feel, but sometimes, we need to step out of our comfort zones and try new things to see how much we can grow. Just give it a try. You might surprise yourself.” Ava hesitated but finally agreed to try out for the role. To her shock, she was chosen for the lead role. The weeks leading up to the play were filled with practice sessions. At first, Ava struggled to speak loudly enough for others to hear. Her fellow actors, however, were supportive. “You’ve got this, Ava!” one of them said during a practice. “Just imagine you’re telling a story to your friends.” Slowly, Ava began to open up. She practiced her lines every night, and her confidence grew. On the night of the performance, she stood backstage, her hands trembling. She took a deep breath and reminded herself of Mrs. James’s words. 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。 As the curtains opened, Ava stepped onto the stage. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Backstage, Ava couldn’t stop smiling as she saw Mrs. James approaching her. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
