As some stories say, coffee was first consumed in Ethiopia, in Africa, dating back to the fifteenth century. However, a popular tale identifies the ninth century as when coffee was originally consumed as a drink. By the seventeenth century, it was enjoyed worldwide. The tale goes that an Ethiopian farmer, Kaldi, spotted that his goats became energetic and didn’t sleep once they’d consumed the red, coffee beans. Then he took some of the beans with him. In those days, there was no professional chefs, so instead he gave them to a local leader, who initially rejected them and threw them onto a fire. The smell of the roasting beans changed his mind, leading him to create a tasty hot drink. Coffee quickly spread to Yemen in southern Arabia. Not only was it enjoyed in people’s homes, but also in the world’s earliest coffee shops. As the popularity grew in Europe, coffee shops appeared there too and became centers of social activity. Later, the British took coffee to North America. 第二部分阅读理解(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Four Excellent Museums for Kids to Explore An injection of knowledge, Leeds The Thackray Museum of Medicine in Leeds is giving a huge makeover recently.

Yet, instead of leaving only footprints, visitors are leaving behind a trail of destruction.When I moved here three years ago, I was excited to live among stuch natural beauty, but the reality has been disheartening. Over lunch, a friend mentioned finding human waste on the Leura Cascades trail, ruining my appetite. Days later, a quickly spread Facebook video showed a man shouting angrily about similar issues at a swimming spot in Linden. I knew the Blue Mountains were struggling, but this level of disrespect was shocking. Determined to make a difference, my friend Jess and I decided to act. Armed with trash bags and a dose of optimism, we started cleaning up popular trails and hidden spots. From famous canyons to a“secret” infinity (无边) pool, we’ ve collected cigarette ends, plastic bottles, food wrappers, and even abandoned socks and gloves. The infinity pool was the worst, with over 100 visitors littering faster than we could say, “Oh, you!” While our efforts feel like a drop in the ocean, I believe every action counts. The Blue Mountains are home to unique plants, clear rivers, and rare wildlife. It’s heartbreaking to see such beauty disrespected. Some locals suggest limiting access to protect vulnerable areas, but locking nature away feels wrong. Instead, we need practical solutions. Education is key, but signs and diagrams alone won’t change behavior. Influencers who promote these spots must lead by example, encouraging followers to respect the environment. Sadly, some people simply don’t care. I’ ve seen it firsthand— like the man who threw a lit cigarette into dry bushland despite being reminded of the fire ban. His behaviour was an absolute reminder of the challenges we face. Despite the disappointment, I remain hopeful. By taking action and inspiring others to do the same, we can protect the Blue Mountains for generations to come. After all, this isn’t just a park— it’s a global treasure worth fighting for. 24. What problem is Blue Mountains facing currently? A. It’s being polluted. B. It’s suffering over tourism. C. It’s full of footprints. D. It’s over developed. 25. Which can best describe the author? A. Pessimistic. B. Responsible. C. Energetic. D. Adventurous. 26. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word“vulnerable” in paragraph 5? A. Very beautiful. B. Very available. C. Easily hurt. D. Easily accessible. 27. What will the author do next? A. Cooperate with locals to limit entry to the park. B. Stop cleaning up the trails because of disappointment. C. Rely on the next generation to better the environment. D. Encourage others to join him to protect the mountains. 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章讲述蓝山山脉遭游客污染，作者和朋友清理并呼吁行动，强调需教育和榜样保护这一世界遗产。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Yet, instead of leaving only footprints, visitors are leaving behind a trail of destruction.(然而，游客们留下的不是足迹，而是一连串的破坏。)”以及本段中描述的具体现象：“finding human waste on the Leura Cascades trail(在 Leura Cascades 小径发现人类排泄物)”、和第二段“collected cigarette ends, plastic bottles, food wrappers(收集到烟头、塑料瓶、食品包装纸)”等可知，蓝山正面临污染问题。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Determined to make a difference, my friend Jess and I decided to act. Armed with trash bags and a dose of optimism, we started cleaning up popular trails and hidden spots.(我和朋友杰斯决心改变现状，于是决定采取行动。我们带着垃圾袋和乐观的心态，开始清理热门小径和隐蔽地点。)”可知，作者主动参与环保行动，体现出责任感。故选B项。 【26题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Some locals suggest limiting access to protect vulnerable areas, but locking nature away feels wrong.(一些当地人建议限制进入以保护vulnerable地区，但把自然锁起来似乎不对。)”并结合前文提到蓝山山脉被污染可知，“vulnerable areas”指的是容易受到游客行为破坏的区域，与“Easily hurt(易受伤害的)”含义相符。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“By taking action and inspiring others to do the same, we can protect the Blue Mountains for generations to come.(通过采取行动并激励他人效仿，我们可以为子孙后代保护蓝山山脉。)”可知，作者未来会继续鼓励更多人加入环保行动。故选D项。 C Eleven-year-old Naila Seetal was elected (选举) as the Child Prime Minister (首相) of the Sir David Amess UK Children’s Parliament (议会).

However, new research shows that when dreams are first recalled (回忆), people often draw connections between their dreams and waking lives, and the connections they draw affect how they think, feel and act at work. The team performed the studies that collectively captured approximately 5,000 morning reports of dream recall among full-time employees. The researchers issued morning field study, a single-day morning-to-afternoon study, and a two-week experience sampling study. “An awe-inspiring dream is highly impactful and memorable, often involving extraordinary experiences or interactions. For example, we arrive at work shortly after interacting with our loved ones who have passed away, narrowly escaping or performing arts of amazing ability.” Belinda, the chief of the study, said. “These experiences bleed into and affect our waking lives, including how productive we are at work.” Assume you recall an awe-inspiring dream in the morning, and then later in the afternoon, your boss tells you to conduct 10 more interviews than you were expecting to do. You might now think that it’s not that big a deal because your awe-inspiring dream just puts everything into perspective. You have a greater realization that there’s a bigger world out there and you’re just part of it. “So, get a good night’s sleep for waking wonder!” Belinda added. Studies show that dreams appear. in all stages of sleep and are impactful. However, the most vivid dreams—those most likely to have meaning and create waking wander—appear during REM sleep. Because REM sleep takes place late in a given sleep cycle (循环), getting enough and high-quality sleep will help you get the most out of your dreams. Sleep tracking devices can show when and how much time you spend in REM sleep, which help improve sleep schedules to increase the chance of having awe-inspiring dreams. For both managers and employees, how much or how well people sleep really means a lot, which can increase productivity at work. 32. What is paragraph 2 intended to explain? A. Why a dream is recorded. B. How the study is conducted. C. What the study revealed. D. Who joined in the research. 33. Which is an awe-inspiring dream according to paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Failing a tough test. B. Meeting with strangers. C. Saving people like a superman. D. Being stuck in a traffic accident. 34. What does the last paragraph recommend? A. Sleep-tracking study. B. Quality sleep. C. Waking wonder. D. Healthy living habits. 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Dreams can be channeled for productivity. B. Dreams impact all sleep stages. C. Dreams contribute to one’s mental health. D. Dreams are attracting greater attention worldwide. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了梦境对工作的影响。研究表明，当人们回忆起梦境时，会将其与清醒时的生活联系起来，而这些联系会影响他们在工作中的思考、感受和行为方式。因此，获得充足、高质量的睡眠有助于人们更好地利用梦境，从而提高工作效率。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The team performed the studies that collectively captured approximately 5,000 morning reports of dream recall among full-time employees. The researchers issued morning field study, a single-day morning-to-afternoon study, and a two-week experience sampling study.(该团队进行的研究共收集了大约5000份全职员工的早晨梦境回忆报告。研究人员发布了上午的实地研究，一天的上午到下午的研究，以及为期两周的经验抽样研究)”可知，第二段主要解释了研究是如何进行。故选B项。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中““An awe-inspiring dream is highly impactful and memorable, often involving extraordinary experiences or interactions.

However, new research shows that when dreams are first recalled, people often draw connections between their dreams and waking lives, and the connections they draw affect how they think, feel and act at work.(做梦似乎和工作没有什么关系。然而，新的研究表明，当人们第一次回忆起梦境时，往往会把梦境和现实生活联系起来，而这种联系会改变他们在工作中的思考、感受和行为)”和最后一段中“For both managers and employees, how much or how well people slept really means a lot, which can increase productivity at work.(对于管理者和员工来说，人们睡得多少或睡得好真的很重要，这可以提高工作效率)”可推知，文章用研究来说明当人们回忆起梦境时，会将其与清醒时的生活联系起来，而这些联系会影响他们在工作中的思考、感受和行为方式。因此，获得充足、高质量的睡眠有助于人们更好地利用梦境，从而提高工作效率。因此“梦可以用于提高工作效率”是文章主要内容。故选A项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Perhaps you love listening to a happy song when you need to cheer up.

If you are one of them, your doctor maybe consider adding music as a complement to your medical treatments. This is because listening to music releases a chemical that activates your brain’s reward and pleasure centers.(焦虑影响着一些美国人，其中许多人还患有抑郁症。如果你是其中之一，你的医生可能会考虑在你的医学治疗中加入音乐作为补充。这是因为听音乐会释放一种化学物质，激活大脑的奖励和快乐中心)”可知，本段说明音乐可以缓解焦虑，C项“它能缓解焦虑和抑郁”符合语境，故选C。 【40题详解】 上文“To do this, they changed the speed of the music without the participants’ knowledge. When they increased the speed, the cyclists’ performance increased in terms of distance, speed, and power.(为了做到这一点，他们在参与者不知情的情况下改变了音乐的速度。当他们提高速度时，骑自行车的人在距离、速度和力量方面的表现都有所提高)”提到改变音乐速度和提高速度时骑行者的表现，空处应是说降低音乐速度时骑行者的表现，G项“降低音乐的速度会产生相反的效果”符合语境，故选G。 第三部分语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、 C和D中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 John Smith, a 39-year-old office worker from Manchester, was caught in a cycle of poor health and lack of energy. ___41___ over 220 pounds and diagnosed as pre-diabetic (糖尿病前期), he was under great stress and knew he needed to make a change.

The moment the musical director appeared, a wave of applause filled the air. The annual High School Music Festival was the highlight of my year. As a music teacher, I never missed a session, always amazed by the extraordinary talents the musical directors inspired in their students. But this year might be my last visit. With age catching up, my desire for retirement was growing stronger. Honestly, there was always a touch of dissatisfaction and envy in my heart as I watched these school bands, because I had never been able to develop a band to this level. I taught in a small primary school. My students played beginner music, and they were happy when we managed to play from the start all the way to the end of a piece, with all the instruments finishing together. The complexities of full tone, dynamic control, and balance were beyond their abilities. As the band opened with their first piece, the striking sound of violins, accompanied by the lively notes of pianos, set my heart pounding. Wouldn’t it be great to be the musical director for one of these massive high school bands? I thought as the music transported me. When the last notes rang out, there was a brief silence before thunderous applause erupted. My aging eyes scanned the stage, seeking familiar faces among the performers. But my vision was no longer sharp enough to recognize anyone. During the tea break, I headed toward the entrance hall. “Miss Jones! ” a young man’s voice cut through the crowd. I recognized the concert uniform he was wearing. It was the very violinist I had been admiring. Puzzled, I searched his face for familiar features. It turned out to be Bradley, a former student of mine who was difficult to forget. Schoolwork had been hard for him, and he had struggled through all his subjects. It was a pleasant surprise to meet him here. We sat down and had a chat. 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。 I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band. I was initially hesitant, aware of his academic struggles and the complexity of the music we were rehearsing. Yet, the determined gleam in little Bradley’s eyes moved me. I agreed, tailoring parts of the music piece to let him shine without being overwhelmed. “It was you who set me on the music path,” Bradley spoke with gratitude. He then recounted his musical journey with the violin, from junior to senior high school, ultimately landing the lead role of First Chair in his school’s concert band. I listened attentively, amazed at the transformative power of music. As he returned to his band, a proud smile spread across my face. I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall. As I took my seat, my heart swelled with quiet pride in knowing the role I had played in a young man’s music journey. The lights dimmed again, and the stage came alive with the energy of young musicians. They began to play, each note resonating with the memory of the first tentative sounds my students had made under my guidance. As the final piece began, I closed my eyes, letting the music wash over me. The music hall, once a place of my longing and unfulfilled dreams, now echoed with a life well-spent in the service of art and education. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者是音乐老师，即将退休。某次观看隔壁学校乐队演奏的时候，作者遇到了自己以前的学生布拉德利，回忆起了以前是如何鼓励布拉德利，以及他如何成为学校音乐会乐队的首席。作者为学生感到骄傲，也惊讶于音乐的强大力量。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我记得他要求加入学校乐队的那一天”可知，第一段可描写作者回忆起了布拉德利的过去以及布拉德利讲述自己的经历。 ②由第二段首句内容“当我回到音乐厅的路上，我仍然面带微笑”可知，第二段可描写作者对这次会面的一些感悟。 2.续写线索：回忆过去——布拉德利讲述经历——作者惊讶于音乐的力量——作者为布拉德利感到骄傲——作者感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①坐下：take seat/sit down ②意识到：aware of/realize ③返回：return to/get back to 情绪类 ①惊讶：amazed/surprised ②感激：gratitude/thankfulness 【点睛】[高分句型1] As he returned to his band, a proud smile spread across my face.

B The Blue Mountains one of Australia’s most visited national parks, is a World Heritage-listed treasure. Yet, instead of leaving only footprints, visitors are leaving behind a trail of destruction.When I moved here three years ago, I was excited to live among stuch natural beauty, but the reality has been disheartening. Over lunch, a friend mentioned finding human waste on the Leura Cascades trail, ruining my appetite. Days later, a quickly spread Facebook video showed a man shouting angrily about similar issues at a swimming spot in Linden. I knew the Blue Mountains were struggling, but this level of disrespect was shocking. Determined to make a difference, my friend Jess and I decided to act. Armed with trash bags and a dose of optimism, we started cleaning up popular trails and hidden spots. From famous canyons to a“secret” infinity (无边) pool, we’ ve collected cigarette ends, plastic bottles, food wrappers, and even abandoned socks and gloves. The infinity pool was the worst, with over 100 visitors littering faster than we could say, “Oh, you!” While our efforts feel like a drop in the ocean, I believe every action counts. The Blue Mountains are home to unique plants, clear rivers, and rare wildlife. It’s heartbreaking to see such beauty disrespected. Some locals suggest limiting access to protect vulnerable areas, but locking nature away feels wrong. Instead, we need practical solutions. Education is key, but signs and diagrams alone won’t change behavior. Influencers who promote these spots must lead by example, encouraging followers to respect the environment. Sadly, some people simply don’t care. I’ ve seen it firsthand— like the man who threw a lit cigarette into dry bushland despite being reminded of the fire ban. His behaviour was an absolute reminder of the challenges we face. Despite the disappointment, I remain hopeful. By taking action and inspiring others to do the same, we can protect the Blue Mountains for generations to come. After all, this isn’t just a park— it’s a global treasure worth fighting for. 24. What problem is Blue Mountains facing currently? A It’s being polluted. B. It’s suffering over tourism. C. It’s full of footprints. D. It’s over developed. 25. Which can best describe the author? A. Pessimistic. B. Responsible. C. Energetic. D. Adventurous. 26. What is the probable meaning of the underlined word“vulnerable” in paragraph 5? A. Very beautiful. B. Very available. C. Easily hurt. D. Easily accessible. 27. What will the author do next? A. Cooperate with locals to limit entry to the park. B. Stop cleaning up the trails because of disappointment. C. Rely on the next generation to better the environment. D. Encourage others to join him to protect the mountains.

However, new research shows that when dreams are first recalled (回忆), people often draw connections between their dreams and waking lives, and the connections they draw affect how they think, feel and act at work. The team performed the studies that collectively captured approximately 5,000 morning reports of dream recall among full-time employees. The researchers issued morning field study, a single-day morning-to-afternoon study, and a two-week experience sampling study. “An awe-inspiring dream is highly impactful and memorable, often involving extraordinary experiences or interactions. For example, we arrive at work shortly after interacting with our loved ones who have passed away, narrowly escaping or performing arts of amazing ability.” Belinda, the chief of the study, said. “These experiences bleed into and affect our waking lives, including how productive we are at work.” Assume you recall an awe-inspiring dream in the morning, and then later in the afternoon, your boss tells you to conduct 10 more interviews than you were expecting to do. You might now think that it’s not that big a deal because your awe-inspiring dream just puts everything into perspective. You have a greater realization that there’s a bigger world out there and you’re just part of it. “So, get a good night’s sleep for waking wonder!” Belinda added. Studies show that dreams appear. in all stages of sleep and are impactful. However, the most vivid dreams—those most likely to have meaning and create waking wander—appear during REM sleep. Because REM sleep takes place late in a given sleep cycle (循环), getting enough and high-quality sleep will help you get the most out of your dreams. Sleep tracking devices can show when and how much time you spend in REM sleep, which help improve sleep schedules to increase the chance of having awe-inspiring dreams. For both managers and employees, how much or how well people sleep really means a lot, which can increase productivity at work. 32. What is paragraph 2 intended to explain? A. Why a dream is recorded. B. How the study is conducted. C. What the study revealed. D. Who joined in the research. 33. Which is an awe-inspiring dream according to paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Failing a tough test. B. Meeting with strangers. C. Saving people like a superman. D. Being stuck in a traffic accident. 34. What does the last paragraph recommend? A. Sleep-tracking study. B. Quality sleep. C. Waking wonder. D. Healthy living habits. 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Dreams can be channeled for productivity. B. Dreams impact all sleep stages. C. Dreams contribute to one’s mental health. D. Dreams are attracting greater attention worldwide. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Perhaps you love listening to a happy song when you need to cheer up.

The moment the musical director appeared, a wave of applause filled the air. The annual High School Music Festival was the highlight of my year. As a music teacher, I never missed a session, always amazed by the extraordinary talents the musical directors inspired in their students. But this year might be my last visit. With age catching up, my desire for retirement was growing stronger. Honestly, there was always a touch of dissatisfaction and envy in my heart as I watched these school bands, because I had never been able to develop a band to this level. I taught in a small primary school. My students played beginner music, and they were happy when we managed to play from the start all the way to the end of a piece, with all the instruments finishing together. The complexities of full tone, dynamic control, and balance were beyond their abilities. As the band opened with their first piece, the striking sound of violins, accompanied by the lively notes of pianos, set my heart pounding. Wouldn’t it be great to be the musical director for one of these massive high school bands? I thought as the music transported me. When the last notes rang out, there was a brief silence before thunderous applause erupted. My aging eyes scanned the stage, seeking familiar faces among the performers. But my vision was no longer sharp enough to recognize anyone. During the tea break, I headed toward the entrance hall. “Miss Jones! ” a young man’s voice cut through the crowd. I recognized the concert uniform he was wearing. It was the very violinist I had been admiring. Puzzled, I searched his face for familiar features. It turned out to be Bradley, a former student of mine who was difficult to forget. Schoolwork had been hard for him, and he had struggled through all his subjects. It was a pleasant surprise to meet him here. We sat down and had a chat. 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。 I remembered the day when he asked to join the school band. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ I was still smiling as I made my way back to the music hall ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$听力考试正式开始。Hi lily.
