The National Gallery
Discover the collection
The National Gallery displays one of the finest and most comprehensive collections of European painting. It includes many famous works, such as Van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait, Velazquez’s Rokeby Venus, Turner’s Fighting Temeraire and Van Gogh’s Sunflowers. All major traditions of Western European painting are represented from the artists of late medieval and Renaissance Italy to the French Impressionists.
This plan will help you to explore the collection. You may wish to start by finding one of the famous paintings illustrated overleaf. You can also plan your route using the ArtStart touch-screen guides. Free guided tours and a variety of audio guides are available.
For further information, ask at Information Desks or pick up the What’s On and Book Now guides for full details of talks, tours and family events.
A public collection
The paintings in the National Gallery belong to the public and entrance to see them is free. The Gallery was founded in 1824, but it did not acquire its current home, designed by William Wilkins, until 1838. The site in Trafalgar Square was chosen for its central location, accessible to both the rich of West London and the poorer communities of the East End. The building has been extended and improved over the years, most notably in 1991 with the opening of the Sainsbury Wing, designed by Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates. The Gallery continues to ensure that the widest possible public can enjoy the paintings.
If you do not wish to keep this plan, please return it to an Information Desk for recycling.
21. How can visitors find the illustrated painting Sunflowers?

B. Read Book Now guides.
C. Search it on the back of the plan.
D. Use the ArtStart touch-screen guides.
22. What can be learned about the National Gallery building?

A. A personal diary. B. A travel website.
C. A science magazine. D. A museum leaflet.

Not long before writing this note, I set out with Gracie to hike a favorite trail, which is how I found myself out of breath up a steep Berkshires hillside in late-winter snow. The trail hadn’t been broken, and there was a wild wind. I paused at a fork. One way led to the highest point in the preserve, our goal for the day, and the other descended, wrapped around the cliff and back to the parking area. A longer but easier trail that passed by an impressive beaver dam we always loved to see. Gracie sat, her wagging tail making a one-winged snow angel.
I thought of cancer survivor Lynne Hartke’s brave story in this issue, about struggle to reach the top of El Minsti, a dormant volcano in Peru, and the lesson she learned. Like Lynne, I hate to give up before reaching a goal, even if mine was more modest. Yet maybe, like Lynne, I should recognize that my plan is not always God’s plan, not today at least, and maybe not on any given day.
We don’t pick stories for an issue around a certain theme. Still, a theme sometimes suggests itself as the pieces develop. Take our cover story, by Mary Bryant Shrader. Her plan was to become a hard-charging corporate lawyer. Now she’s a You Tube cooking star and prepper, teaching people traditional ways of keeping a kitchen. Little did she know how that philosophy would influence her faith in a moment of crisis. In her story, Night and Day, all Jessica Reed desired for was to be normal. Yet was her idea of “normal” God’s idea? Take a cross-country ride with Jim Hinch and son in The Two Dudes, and witness how the best-laid plans of a father can take a different turn.
In my life, I’ve learned that the path laid out before me was not the one I thought I would follow. And yet it has brought great fortune. Even on a late-winter day on a snowy hillside trail. “Come on, Gracie,” I said. “Let’s go see the beavers.”
24. How did the author feel when pausing at the fork?
A. Confident. B. Hesitant. C. Determined. D. Impatient.
25. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “modest” in paragraph 2?
A. Ordinary. B. Challenging. C. Expensive. D. Hidden.
26. What is common among Lynne Hartke, Mary Shrader, and Jessica Reed?
A. They failed in career. B. They shifted personal goals.
C. They broke former plans. D. They found faith through nature.
27. Why does the author write this passage?
A. To criticize strict planning. B. To promote religious beliefs.
C. To encourage flexible thinking. D. To describe a hiking adventure.
C
Dogs have been close four-legged friends of humans for as long as we can remember but exactly how long has this relationship lasted? Scientists may finally have an answer, thanks to a new study on ancient human remains found in Alaska. The research suggests that the strong bond between humans and the ancestors of today’s dogs began 12,000 years ago.
“We now have proof that dogs and humans had close connections earlier than we thought in the Americas,” said the study’s lead author, Francois Lanoe, an assistant researcher at the University of Arizona’s School of Anthropology.
“People interested in the origins of the Americas want to know if the first humans arrived with dogs. Until we find these animals in old digging sites, we can only guess — it’s hard to confirm. This discovery is very significant.”
In a 2018 archaeological study, the same team found a lower leg bone from an adult dog-like animal at a site in Alaska. Carbon dating showed the animal lived 12,000 years ago, near the end of the Ice Age. More recently, in June 2023, the team dug up an 8,100-year-old jawbone from a similar animal at a nearby site.
For the new study, scientists performed chemical tests on these bones. They found salmon proteins, suggesting these animals ate fish regularly. This was unusual because dog-like animals at the time only hunted land animals, showing human influence.
While the team believes this is the earliest known relationship between humans and dogs, they say it’s too soon to be certain. A key question remains: “What defines a dog?” said Dr. Ben Potter, a co-author of the study and an archaeologist at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Though these creatures acted and looked like dogs, they might be too ancient to be genetically connected to modern dogs we know today.
28. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A new study proves dogs originated in Alaska.
B. Ancient dogs survived the Ice Age by eating fish.
C. Scientists discovered the oldest human remains in America.
D. Humans and dogs developed a close bond 12,000 years ago.
29. What can we infer about the significance of the discovery?
A. It confirms dogs arrived in America before humans.
B. It provides clues about early human-dog interactions.
C. It solves the mystery of modern dog genetics.
D. It disproves previous theories about the Ice Age.
30. How was the age of the bone determined in the 2018 study?
A. Genetic testing. B. Carbon dating.
C. Protein analysis. D. Site comparison.
31. Why is the team uncertain about the earliest human-dog relationship?
A. Weak genetic connection. B. Lack of multiple bone samples.
C. Confusion over defining “dog”. D. Inconclusive salmon protein results.
D
The “hedgehog (刺猬) dilemma” is a famous metaphor from German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. In his 1851 book, he described how humans struggle with relationships through a story about hedgehogs. His advice was simple: keep your distance.
This sad story became widely discussed. Sigmund Freud and modern scientists studied this idea. In 2015, an award-winning short film called Hedgehog retold this story.
How does this apply to real life? Most people remember being hurt by close relationships – broken friendships, family conflicts, or romantic betrayals. Since these connections matter deeply, their damage hurts more. Should we stop trusting others? Schopenhauer said yes, but science would say otherwise.
A study in PLOS Medicine reviewing 148 studies with over 300,000 people found those with strong social connections live 50% longer. The National Institute on Aging warns that loneliness harms health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes daily – making Schopenhauer’s advice concerning.
When hurt repeatedly, people often fall into defense mode. Relationship expert Hilary Sanders explains common defense behaviors: going silent during arguments, seeing normal comments as criticism, or overreacting to small issues. These reactions often start in childhood. If parents often criticized or classmates bullied someone, they might develop habits like pretending not to care or getting angry easily. While these helped survive childhood pain, they cause problems in adult relationships when used unconsciously.
The good news is people can change. Through therapy, many learn to recognize their defense patterns and understand their origins. Couples can improve relationships by learning each other’s emotional triggers and responding thoughtfully instead of arguing. However, Sanders warns that defenses shouldn’t be removed suddenly — it’s like taking down a wall brick by brick.
Although Schopenhauer focused on the pain of closeness, the hedgehog story actually shows our deep need for connection. Unlike real hedgehogs, humans aren’t born with physical spines. By carefully lowering our defenses around trustworthy people, we might truly enjoy both warmth and safety in relationships.
32. Why does the author mention the hedgehog dilemma in paragraph 1?
A. To stress its importance. B. To support Schopenhauer’s advice.
C. To recommend Schopenhauer’s book. D. To introduce the theme of relationship.
33. What is Schopenhauer’s key solution to the “hedgehog dilemma”?
A. Ignore pain. B. Seek therapy.
C. Avoid closeness. D. Build walls.
34. What major evidence goes against Schopenhauer’s advice?
A. Freud’s studies. B. Long life from social ties.
C. Henry’s short film. D. Defense behavior of people.
35. What does Sanders say about close connection?
A. People should make gradual progress in it.
B. Humans can benefit from it unconsciously.
C. It can help children relieve childhood pain.
D. Couples should learn to defend it thoughtfully.
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。
One thing that most of us will agree on is that there is a lot of “stuff” in the world. And with environmental and economic concerns on our minds wouldn’t it make sense if we could share things between us a bit more? ____36____ Sharing libraries offer useful items to local people, who are able to borrow and return them, free of charge or for a very low fee.
These collections tend to focus on common things that we all need, but which we don’t use constantly. This saves on the environmental impact of producing the items by reducing the demand for new things.
____37____ For families, financial barriers can mean that things like toys or comfortable clothing can be knocked down the priorities list. But these libraries create a sense of equality in the community, meaning that individuals don’t need to go without.
There are several ways to find out where your closest sharing library is. ____38____ It maps 50 libraries across the UK. But if your area isn’t listed by those sites, don’t give up hope. Some communities will set up smaller, informal versions of these libraries — for example, street WhatsApp groups where people ask if anyone on the road has the thing they’re looking to borrow, or local pass-it-on groups. ____39____ Attend the Network’s online workshops to learn more about sharing libraries and how to set one up for themselves.
In a world where we’re encouraged to continue to collect more and more stuff, sharing libraries are taking a stand for the environment and for our personal finances. So, next time you find yourself in need of something handy, consider looking for a way to borrow it. ____40____
A. Still no luck?
B. If unlisted, search locally.
C. At the core of sharing libraries is greater access.
D. This is the fundamental idea behind sharing libraries.
E. This concept challenges traditional ownership models.
F. Start by checking the UK Sharing Libraries Network website.
G. It’ll be easy on the planet, easy on your pocket, and great for the community.

67. 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。
I like things to balance, partly because of my name, “Ava.” When something bothers me, I try to balance the bad with the good. That’s why I don’t mind being the tallest kid in third grade.
Bad: Have to stand in the back row of my class picture.
Good: Can reach the books on the top library shelf.
Bad: Everyone always points out how tall I am.
Good: Sometimes I want people to notice me. So it balances.
One day, a new girl, Ava Zafra, comes to school, and she’s the shortest kid in third grade. Now everyone calls me “Ava J.” and the new girl “Ava Z.” I thought if we had the same name, maybe we were alike. During art class, I paint a kitten sliding down a rainbow. Ava Z. paints her shoes black. She shouts, “I am an alien hunter! Fear me!” We aren’t alike.
During a break, Samir yells, “Over there, Ava!” When I look at Samir, he shakes his head. “Not you, Big Ava. I meant Little Ava.” From then on, I’m not just Ava. I’m not even Ava J. — I’m Big Ava. I try to think of something good about being big, but I can’t remember anything good.
The next day, Ms. Wu has a surprise. “Everyone, let’s draw to pick the speaking roles for our class play!” she announces. “It’s called Clever Jack. He rescues a princess from a giant with the help of a wood fairy.”
The fairy! Maybe I can wear my fairy costume. I cross my fingers when she picks the name. “The fairy will be Ava Z.,” Ms. Wu says. Then, she pulls one more name from the jar and looks at me. “Ava. J. will be the giant.” My heart sinks. The ugly, scary giant? My only line is, “ARRGH!” I hate yelling! I don’t want to be too big!
Our class rehearses (排练) until we know every line. The day before the play, we try on our costumes. When it’s my turn, Ms. Wu drops a burlap (麻布) robe over my head. I am an ugly, scary giant.
I run to the bathroom, so no one will see my cry. I’m not alone.
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。
Little Ava is there, and she’s crying, too.

We know live fun once had a population of six hundred, but that held when nearby factories were closed. The primary school was shot because of the population decline, but the locals turned IT into a leisure center and youth club. Last week, people of the fund clubs together to buy the only shop ten years after buying the pub. Now they have helped to keep the shop open. Most of the cost, nineteen thousand five hundred pounds, was met by the local government, but the villagers needed to raise a further six thousand pounds to buy the shop from the aged owner who is retiring. John Jones, chairman of the community committee, went around every house and came back with five hundred pounds more than they needed. Now the shop belongs to all the villagers and is run by a Young couple who were touched by the wonderful community spirit here. Hello everyone, here is a piece of news from little fun.

The National Gallery
Discover the collection
The National Gallery displays one of the finest and most comprehensive collections of European painting. It includes many famous works, such as Van Eyck’s Arnolfini Portrait, Velazquez’s Rokeby Venus, Turner’s Fighting Temeraire and Van Gogh’s Sunflowers. All major traditions of Western European painting are represented from the artists of late medieval and Renaissance Italy to the French Impressionists.
This plan will help you to explore the collection. You may wish to start by finding one of the famous paintings illustrated overleaf. You can also plan your route using the ArtStart touch-screen guides. Free guided tours and a variety of audio guides are available.
For further information, ask at Information Desks or pick up the What’s On and Book Now guides for full details of talks, tours and family events.
A public collection
The paintings in the National Gallery belong to the public and entrance to see them is free. The Gallery was founded in 1824, but it did not acquire its current home, designed by William Wilkins, until 1838. The site in Trafalgar Square was chosen for its central location, accessible to both the rich of West London and the poorer communities of the East End. The building has been extended and improved over the years, most notably in 1991 with the opening of the Sainsbury Wing, designed by Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates. The Gallery continues to ensure that the widest possible public can enjoy the paintings.
If you do not wish to keep this plan, please return it to an Information Desk for recycling.
21. How can visitors find the illustrated painting Sunflowers?
A. Ask for an audio guide.
B. Read Book Now guides.
C. Search it on the back of the plan.
D. Use the ArtStart touch-screen guides.
22. What can be learned about the National Gallery building?
A. It has been expanded over time.
B. It was designed by Venturi alone.
C. Wilkins designed the Sainsbury Wing.
D. Its current form was completed in 1824.
23. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A personal diary. B. A travel website.
C. A science magazine. D. A museum leaflet.
【答案】21. C 22. A 23. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。主要介绍了国家美术馆的藏品、参观方式、建筑历史等信息。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“You may wish to start by finding one of the famous paintings illustrated overleaf.( 你可能希望从反面插图的一幅名画开始。)”可知,“overleaf”意思是“在背面”,这表明可以在计划(plan)的背面找到有图示的著名画作,《向日葵》是著名画作之一。故选C项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The building has been extended and improved over the years, most notably in 1991 with the opening of the Sainsbury Wing, designed by Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates.( 多年来,该建筑一直在扩建和改进,最引人注目的是1991年由文丘里,斯科特布朗和联合设计的塞恩斯伯里翼的开放。)”可知,关于国家美术馆可以了解到随着时间的推移,它已经扩大了。故选A项。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章主要介绍了国家美术馆的藏品、参观方式、建筑历史等信息,整体是关于美术馆的介绍,所以最有可能来自博物馆的传单(museum leaflet)。
B
Not long before writing this note, I set out with Gracie to hike a favorite trail, which is how I found myself out of breath up a steep Berkshires hillside in late-winter snow. The trail hadn’t been broken, and there was a wild wind. I paused at a fork. One way led to the highest point in the preserve, our goal for the day, and the other descended, wrapped around the cliff and back to the parking area. A longer but easier trail that passed by an impressive beaver dam we always loved to see. Gracie sat, her wagging tail making a one-winged snow angel.
I thought of cancer survivor Lynne Hartke’s brave story in this issue, about struggle to reach the top of El Minsti, a dormant volcano in Peru, and the lesson she learned. Like Lynne, I hate to give up before reaching a goal, even if mine was more modest. Yet maybe, like Lynne, I should recognize that my plan is not always God’s plan, not today at least, and maybe not on any given day.
We don’t pick stories for an issue around a certain theme. Still, a theme sometimes suggests itself as the pieces develop. Take our cover story, by Mary Bryant Shrader. Her plan was to become a hard-charging corporate lawyer. Now she’s a You Tube cooking star and prepper, teaching people traditional ways of keeping a kitchen. Little did she know how that philosophy would influence her faith in a moment of crisis. In her story, Night and Day, all Jessica Reed desired for was to be normal. Yet was her idea of “normal” God’s idea? Take a cross-country ride with Jim Hinch and son in The Two Dudes, and witness how the best-laid plans of a father can take a different turn.
In my life, I’ve learned that the path laid out before me was not the one I thought I would follow. And yet it has brought great fortune. Even on a late-winter day on a snowy hillside trail. “Come on, Gracie,” I said. “Let’s go see the beavers.”
24. How did the author feel when pausing at the fork?
A. Confident. B. Hesitant. C. Determined. D. Impatient.
25. Which of the following can replace the underlined word “modest” in paragraph 2?
A. Ordinary. B. Challenging. C. Expensive. D. Hidden.
26. What is common among Lynne Hartke, Mary Shrader, and Jessica Reed?
A. They failed in career. B. They shifted personal goals.
C. They broke former plans. D. They found faith through nature.
27. Why does the author write this passage?
A. To criticize strict planning. B. To promote religious beliefs.
C. To encourage flexible thinking. D. To describe a hiking adventure.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者和宠物狗在雪天徒步旅行时,在岔路口做出选择,进而引发对人生中计划与变故的思考,并通过列举他人的故事,鼓励人们灵活看待人生。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Like Lynne, I hate to give up before reaching a goal, even if mine was more modest. Yet maybe, like Lynne, I should recognize that my plan is not always God’s plan, not today at least, and maybe not on any given day. (像林恩一样,我也不喜欢在达到目标之前就放弃,即使我的目标更modest。然而,也许和林恩一样,我应该认识到,我的计划并不总是上帝的计划,至少今天不是,也许在任何一天都不是)”可知,作者提到自己和Lynne一样不喜欢在达到目标前放弃,但又在思考也许自己的计划并不总是对的,由此可推断出作者在岔路口时内心是犹豫的,不确定该选择哪条路,所以Hesitant“犹豫的”符合作者当时的心情。A. Confident自信的;C. Determined坚定的;D. Impatient不耐烦的。故选B。
【25题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Like Lynne, I hate to give up before reaching a goal, even if miCne was more modest. Yet maybe, like Lynne, I should recognize that my plan is not always God’s plan, not today at least, and maybe not on any given day. (像林恩一样,我也不喜欢在达到目标之前就放弃,即使我的目标更modest。然而,也许和林恩一样,我应该认识到,我的计划并不总是上帝的计划,至少今天不是,也许在任何一天都不是)”可知,作者将Lynne爬秘鲁的火山和自己的徒步目标对比,说明自己的目标相对而言没有那么宏大、不一般,是较为普通的,Ordinary“普通的”符合语境。B. Challenging有挑战性的;C. Expensive昂贵的;D. Hidden隐藏的。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Take our cover story, by Mary Bryant Shrader. Her plan was to become a hard - charging corporate lawyer. Now she’s a YouTube cooking star and prepper, teaching people traditional ways of keeping a kitchen. Little did she know how that philosophy would influence her faith in a moment of crisis. In her story, Night and Day, all Jessica Reed desired for was to be normal. Yet was her idea of “normal” God’s idea? (来看看我们的封面故事,作者是玛丽・布莱恩特・施雷德。她原本的计划是成为一名积极进取的企业律师。如今,她成了一名 YouTube 烹饪明星兼生存达人,向人们传授保持厨房传统的方法。她万万没想到,在危机时刻,这种理念会对她的信仰产生影响。在她的故事《日与夜》中,杰西卡・里德一心只想过上平凡的生活。然而,她所认为的“平凡”,真的是上帝眼中的“平凡”吗?)”可知,Lynne Hartke原本计划爬秘鲁的火山,但可能因各种情况改变了想法;Mary Bryant Shrader原本计划成为公司律师,后来成了YouTube烹饪明星;Jessica Reed原本渴望“平凡”,但她的“平凡”观念可能与上帝的想法不同,意味着她也有个人目标或想法的转变。这三个人都改变了自己原本的个人目标或想法。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。文章通过作者自己在徒步时在岔路口的选择,联想到Lynne Hartke、Mary Bryant Shrader、Jessica Reed等人的故事,这些人都在人生中经历了计划与现实的差异,最后作者决定改变原计划去看海狸,并在最后一段中提到“In my life, I’ve learned that the path laid out before me was not the one I thought I would follow. And yet it has brought great fortune. (在我的生活中,我明白了摆在我面前的道路并不是我想象中的那条。然而,它却给我带来了巨大的财富)”由此可推断出作者写这篇文章是为了鼓励人们在面对人生的变化时要灵活思考,不要固执地坚持原计划。故选C。
C
Dogs have been close four-legged friends of humans for as long as we can remember, but exactly how long has this relationship lasted? Scientists may finally have an answer, thanks to a new study on ancient human remains found in Alaska. The research suggests that the strong bond between humans and the ancestors of today’s dogs began 12,000 years ago.
“We now have proof that dogs and humans had close connections earlier than we thought in the Americas,” said the study’s lead author, Francois Lanoe, an assistant researcher at the University of Arizona’s School of Anthropology.
“People interested in the origins of the Americas want to know if the first humans arrived with dogs. Until we find these animals in old digging sites, we can only guess — it’s hard to confirm. This discovery is very significant.”
In a 2018 archaeological study, the same team found a lower leg bone from an adult dog-like animal at a site in Alaska. Carbon dating showed the animal lived 12,000 years ago, near the end of the Ice Age. More recently, in June 2023, the team dug up an 8,100-year-old jawbone from a similar animal at a nearby site.
For the new study, scientists performed chemical tests on these bones. They found salmon proteins, suggesting these animals ate fish regularly. This was unusual because dog-like animals at the time only hunted land animals, showing human influence.
While the team believes this is the earliest known relationship between humans and dogs, they say it’s too soon to be certain. A key question remains: “What defines a dog?” said Dr. Ben Potter, a co-author of the study and an archaeologist at the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Though these creatures acted and looked like dogs, they might be too ancient to be genetically connected to modern dogs we know today.
28. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. A new study proves dogs originated in Alaska.
B. Ancient dogs survived the Ice Age by eating fish.
C. Scientists discovered the oldest human remains in America.
D. Humans and dogs developed a close bond 12,000 years ago.
29. What can we infer about the significance of the discovery?
A. It confirms dogs arrived in America before humans.
B. It provides clues about early human-dog interactions.
C. It solves the mystery of modern dog genetics.
D. It disproves previous theories about the Ice Age.
30. How was the age of the bone determined in the 2018 study?
A. Genetic testing. B. Carbon dating.
C. Protein analysis. D. Site comparison.
31. Why is the team uncertain about the earliest human-dog relationship?
A. Weak genetic connection. B. Lack of multiple bone samples.
C Confusion over defining “dog”. D. Inconclusive salmon protein results.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. B 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是科学家通过一项针对阿拉斯加古人类遗骸的新研究,揭示了人类与狗之间深厚关系的起源时间。
【28题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“The research suggests that the strong bond between humans and the ancestors of today’s dogs began 12,000 years ago.(研究表明,人类和今天狗的祖先之间的紧密联系始于12000年前)”可知,本文主要讲的是人类和狗在12000年前就建立了亲密的关系,因此主旨是D选项“Humans and dogs developed a close bond 12,000 years ago.(人类和狗在12000年前就建立了亲密的关系)”。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““People interested in the origins of the Americas want to know if the first humans arrived with dogs. Until we find these animals in old digging sites, we can only guess—it’s hard to confirm. This discovery is very significant.”(“对美洲起源感兴趣的人想知道第一批人类是否带着狗来到这里。在我们在旧的挖掘地点找到这些动物之前,我们只能猜测——很难确认。这一发现意义重大。”)”可知,这一发现为早期人类与狗的互动提供了线索。故选B。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“In a 2018 archaeological study, the same team found a lower leg bone from an adult dog-like animal at a site in Alaska. Carbon dating showed the animal lived 12,000 years ago, near the end of the Ice Age.(在2018年的一项考古研究中,同一研究团队在阿拉斯加的一个遗址发现了一具成年类狗动物的小腿骨。碳同位素测年法显示,该动物生活在12,000年前,接近冰河时代末期)”可知,在2018年的研究中,骨头的年龄是通过碳同位素测年法确定的。故选B。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“A key question remains: “What defines a dog?” said Dr. Ben Potter, a co-author of the study and an archaeologist at the University of Alaska Fairbanks.(一个关键问题仍然存在:“如何定义狗?”该研究的合著者、阿拉斯加大学费尔班克斯分校的考古学家Ben Potter博士说道)”可知,研究小组对最早的人狗关系不确定是因为对“狗”定义的困惑。故选C。
D
The “hedgehog (刺猬) dilemma” is a famous metaphor from German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. In his 1851 book, he described how humans struggle with relationships through a story about hedgehogs. His advice was simple: keep your distance.
This sad story became widely discussed. Sigmund Freud and modern scientists studied this idea. In 2015 an award-winning short film called Hedgehog retold this story.
How does this apply to real life? Most people remember being hurt by close relationships – broken friendships, family conflicts, or romantic betrayals. Since these connections matter deeply, their damage hurts more. Should we stop trusting others? Schopenhauer said yes, but science would say otherwise.
A study in PLOS Medicine reviewing 148 studies with over 300,000 people found those with strong social connections live 50% longer. The National Institute on Aging warns that loneliness harms health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes daily – making Schopenhauer’s advice concerning.
When hurt repeatedly, people often fall into defense mode. Relationship expert Hilary Sanders explains common defense behaviors: going silent during arguments, seeing normal comments as criticism, or overreacting to small issues. These reactions often start in childhood. If parents often criticized or classmates bullied someone, they might develop habits like pretending not to care or getting angry easily. While these helped survive childhood pain, they cause problems in adult relationships when used unconsciously.
The good news is people can change. Through therapy, many learn to recognize their defense patterns and understand their origins. Couples can improve relationships by learning each other’s emotional triggers and responding thoughtfully instead of arguing. However, Sanders warns that defenses shouldn’t be removed suddenly — it’s like taking down a wall brick by brick.
Although Schopenhauer focused on the pain of closeness, the hedgehog story actually shows our deep need for connection. Unlike real hedgehogs, humans aren’t born with physical spines. By carefully lowering our defenses around trustworthy people, we might truly enjoy both warmth and safety in relationships.

A. To stress its importance. B. To support Schopenhauer’s advice.
C. To recommend Schopenhauer’s book. D. To introduce the theme of relationship.
33. What is Schopenhauer’s key solution to the “hedgehog dilemma”?
A. Ignore pain. B. Seek therapy.
C. Avoid closeness. D. Build walls.
34. What major evidence goes against Schopenhauer’s advice?
A. Freud’s studies. B. Long life from social ties.
C. Henry’s short film. D. Defense behavior of people.
35. What does Sanders say about close connection?
A. People should make gradual progress in it.
B. Humans can benefit from it unconsciously.
C. It can help children relieve childhood pain.
D. Couples should learn to defend it thoughtfully.
【答案】32. D 33. C 34. B 35. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章围绕德国哲学家叔本华提出的“刺猬困境” 展开,探讨了人际关系中的距离与亲密问题。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“The “hedgehog (刺猬) dilemma” is a famous metaphor from German philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer. In his 1851 book, he described how humans struggle with relationships through a story about hedgehogs. His advice was simple: keep your distance.( “刺猬困境”是德国哲学家叔本华的一个著名比喻。在他1851年出版的书中,他通过一个关于刺猬的故事描述了人类如何在人际关系中挣扎。他的建议很简单:保持距离。)”可知,文章第一段提到“刺猬困境”这一著名隐喻,接着阐述其在现实生活人际关系中的体现,如亲密关系中的伤害等 。所以作者提及“刺猬困境” 是为了引出关于人际关系这一主题。故选D项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“His advice was simple: keep your distance.( 他的建议很简单:保持距离。)”可知,叔本华对于“刺猬困境”的核心解决办法是保持距离,也就是避免亲密(Avoid closeness)。故选C项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“A study in PLOS Medicine reviewing 148 studies with over 300,000 people found those with strong social connections live 50% longer. The National Institute on Aging warns that loneliness harms health as much as smoking 15 cigarettes daily – making Schopenhauer’s advice concerning.(《公共科学图书馆·医学》杂志上的一项研究回顾了148项涉及30多万人的研究,发现那些社交关系强的人寿命要长50%。美国国家老龄化研究所警告说,孤独对健康的危害与每天吸15支烟一样大——这使得叔本华的建议令人担忧。)”可知,社交关系带来的长寿这一主要证据,与叔本华的建议相悖。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“However, Sanders warns that defenses shouldn’t be removed suddenly — it’s like taking down a wall brick by brick.( 然而,桑德斯警告说,防御不应该突然拆除,就像一砖一瓦地拆墙一样。)”可知,桑德斯认为人们在建立亲密关系时,不应突然去除防御,要像一砖一瓦拆除墙一样循序渐进。故选A项。
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。
One thing that most of us will agree on is that there is a lot of “stuff” in the world. And with environmental and economic concerns on our minds, wouldn’t it make sense if we could share things between us a bit more? ____36____ Sharing libraries offer useful items to local people, who are able to borrow and return them, free of charge or for a very low fee.
These collections tend to focus on common things that we all need, but which we don’t use constantly. This saves on the environmental impact of producing the items by reducing the demand for new things.
____37____ For families, financial barriers can mean that things like toys or comfortable clothing can be knocked down the priorities list. But these libraries create a sense of equality in the community, meaning that individuals don’t need to go without.
There are several ways to find out where your closest sharing library is. ____38____ It maps 50 libraries across the UK. But if your area isn’t listed by those sites, don’t give up hope. Some communities will set up smaller, informal versions of these libraries — for example, street WhatsApp groups where people ask if anyone on the road has the thing they’re looking to borrow, or local pass-it-on groups. ____39____ Attend the Network’s online workshops to learn more about sharing libraries and how to set one up for themselves.
In a world where we’re encouraged to continue to collect more and more stuff, sharing libraries are taking a stand for the environment and for our personal finances. So, next time you find yourself in need of something handy, consider looking for a way to borrow it. ____40____
A. Still no luck?
B. If unlisted, search locally.
C. At the core of sharing libraries is greater access.
D. This is the fundamental idea behind sharing libraries.
E. This concept challenges traditional ownership models.
F. Start by checking the UK Sharing Libraries Network website.
G. It’ll be easy on the planet, easy on your pocket, and great for the community.
【答案】36. D 37. C 38. F 39. A 40. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕共享图书馆展开,介绍了其理念、作用、查找方式等内容。
【36题详解】
前文“And with environmental and economic concerns on our minds, wouldn’t it make sense if we could share things between us a bit more?(考虑到我们对环境和经济的担忧,如果我们能更多地分享一些东西,这不是很有意义吗?)”提出“在考虑环境和经济问题的情况下,我们多共享物品是否有意义”的疑问,后文“Sharing libraries offer useful items to local people, who are able to borrow and return them, free of charge or for a very low fee.(共享图书馆为当地人提供有用的资料,他们可以免费或以极低的费用借阅和归还)”紧接着介绍了共享图书馆的运作模式,即向当地人提供物品,可免费或低价借用和归还。选项D“This is the fundamental idea behind sharing libraries.(这就是共享图书馆背后的基本理念)”,“这”指代前文共享物品的想法,起到了承上启下的作用,自然地引出了后文对共享图书馆的介绍。故选D项。
【37题详解】
空格处是该段的主题句。后文“For families, financial barriers can mean that things like toys or comfortable clothing can be knocked down the priorities list. But these libraries create a sense of equality in the community, meaning that individuals don’t need to go without.(对于家庭来说,经济障碍可能使玩具或舒适衣物等物品的优先级降低,但这些图书馆在社区中营造了平等感,让人们不会缺少这些东西)”强调了共享图书馆能让人们更方便地获取所需物品。选项C“At the core of sharing libraries is greater access.(共享图书馆的核心是让人们更容易获取物品)”准确概括了后文共享图书馆促进社区平等、让人们能获取物品的核心内容。故选C项。
【38题详解】
根据上文“There are several ways to find out where your closest sharing library is.(有几种方法可以找到最近的共享图书馆在哪里)”推知,选项内容是关于如何查找共享图书馆,选项F“Start by checking the UK Sharing Libraries Network website.(先查看英国共享图书馆网络网站)”符合语境。故选F项。
【39题详解】
前文“But if your area isn’t listed by those sites, don’t give up hope. Some communities will set up smaller, informal versions of these libraries — for example, street WhatsApp groups where people ask if anyone on the road has the thing they’re looking to borrow, or local pass-it-on groups.(但是,如果你所在的地区没有被这些网站列出,不要放弃希望。一些社区将建立这些图书馆的小型非正式版本——例如,街头WhatsApp群,人们可以在那里询问路上是否有人有他们想借的东西,或者当地的传递小组)”提到如果所在地区未在相关网站列出,不要放弃希望,还举例说明了一些社区有小型、非正式的共享图书馆形式。选项A “Still no luck?(还是没找到吗?)”,承接前文在网站未找到的情况,自然地引出后文“Attend the Network’s online workshops to learn more about sharing libraries and how to set one up for themselves.(参加网络的在线研讨会,了解更多关于共享图书馆的知识,以及如何为自己建立一个图书馆)”学习如何自己建立共享图书馆的内容。故选A项。
【40题详解】
前文“So, next time you find yourself in need of something handy, consider looking for a way to borrow it.(所以,下次当你发现自己需要手边的东西时,考虑一下想办法借)”鼓励人们下次需要物品时考虑从共享图书馆借用。选项G“It’ll be easy on the planet, easy on your pocket, and great for the community.(这对地球有益,对你的钱包友好,对社区也有好处)”,全面总结了从共享图书馆借用物品的好处,与前文鼓励借用的内容相呼应。故选G项。

【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在北京市东南部的北京经济技术开发区(BDA)举行的世界首个类人机器人半程马拉松中,有机器参赛者参与竞争。此处为非谓语动词作定语,competitors与compete为主动关系,用现在分词competing。故填competing。
【57题详解】

考查代词。句意:梁指出,类人机器人半程马拉松的规则与汽车拉力赛的规则非常相似。此处作介词like的宾语,且无提示词,所以此处使用代词,结合句意,此处为同类异物特指,应用that/those,上文rules为复数,故用代词those。故填those。
【60题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:各团队将人工智能自主性与人类监督相结合,应对着机器以前从未遇到过的挑战:不平的人行道、通信中断以及户外环境的不可预测性。challenge为可数名词,根据后文列举的内容可知,此处应用复数形式challenges。故填challenges。
【61题详解】
考查连词。句意同上。此处连接uneven pavements, communication drops和the unpredictability of the outdoors三个并列名词短语,用连词and。故填and。
【62题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:梁说:“这项赛事不仅是一个测试和展示平台,更重要的是,它是一个供开发者、爱好者和企业交流思想的空间。”此处为谓语动词,描述客观事实,用一般现在时,主语The event是第三人称单数,所以谓语动词用serves。故填serves。
【63题详解】
考查名词复数。句意同上。空处应用名词作宾语,结合句意“开发者”可知,developer符合题意,可数名词,根据后文“enthusiasts and companies”可知,此处应用复数形式developers,与后文构成并列关系。故填developers。
【64题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:Noetix的N2机器人获得第二名,而上海公司DroidUp设计的一款机器人获得了第三名。此处为谓语动词,与上文的谓语动词“crossed”以及“came”并列,描述过去发生的事情,用一般过去时,所以谓语动词为secured。故填secured。
【65题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:主办方座右铭“参与即是胜利,完赛即是荣耀”,不正是充满了阿克瓦里的故事吗?根据固定搭配be filled with“充满”可知,用过去分词filled与isn’t构成一般现在时的被动语态的否定形式。故填filled。

67. 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。
I like things to balance, partly because of my name, “Ava.” When something bothers me, I try to balance the bad with the good. That’s why I don’t mind being the tallest kid in third grade.
Bad: Have to stand in the back row of my class picture.
Good: Can reach the books on the top library shelf.
Bad: Everyone always points out how tall I am.
Good: Sometimes I want people to notice me. So it balances.
One day, a new girl, Ava Zafra, comes to school, and she’s the shortest kid in third grade. Now everyone calls me “Ava J.” and the new girl “Ava Z.” I thought if we had the same name, maybe we were alike. During art class, I paint a kitten sliding down a rainbow. Ava Z. paints her shoes black. She shouts, “I am an alien hunter! Fear me!” We aren’t alike.
During a break, Samir yells, “Over there, Ava!” When I look at Samir, he shakes his head. “Not you, Big Ava. I meant Little Ava.” From then on, I’m not just Ava. I’m not even Ava J. — I’m Big Ava. I try to think of something good about being big, but I can’t remember anything good.
The next day, Ms. Wu has a surprise. “Everyone, let’s draw to pick the speaking roles for our class play!” she announces. “It’s called Clever Jack. He rescues a princess from a giant with the help of a wood fairy.”
The fairy! Maybe I can wear my fairy costume. I cross my fingers when she picks the name. “The fairy will be Ava Z.,” Ms. Wu says. Then, she pulls one more name from the jar and looks at me. “Ava. J. will be the giant.” My heart sinks. The ugly, scary giant? My only line is, “ARRGH!” I hate yelling! I don’t want to be too big!
Our class rehearses (排练) until we know every line. The day before the play, we try on our costumes. When it’s my turn, Ms. Wu drops a burlap (麻布) robe over my head. I am an ugly, scary giant.
I run to the bathroom, so no one will see my cry. I’m not alone.
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。
Little Ava is there, and she’s crying, too.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“Ready to exchange?” asks Little Ava.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Little Ava is there, and she’s crying, too. “Don’t look at me! I look silly.” she yells, wiping her tears. “I don’t want to be the fairy — I want to be fierce, like the giant!” she confesses. Her voice trembles and I realize she is as upset as I am. “I don’t want to be big. Too bad we can’t trade.” I murmur. Before I can continue, she suddenly looks up at me like an evil fairy, her eyes flashing with an idea. “Maybe we can.” I exchange a glance with her. Yes, we two Avas could balance! The next day, We are in the backstage. Everyone in school is in the audience.
“Ready to exchange?” asks Little Ava. I nod eagerly, and we scramble to swap costumes. She drowns in the giant’s robe, but when I smear black makeup around her eyes, she grins wickedly. “Perfect,” she whispers. “Now I’m the monster.” Little Ava stomps onto the stage, her tiny frame hidden under the robe, and delivers “ARRGH” so fierce that the front-row kids gasp. Meanwhile, I float in my fairy costume, taller than everyone but finally unafraid. After the play, Ms. Wu holds our hands while everyone cheers. “Big and Little Ava power!” I whisper to her. I’ve never felt bigger, and that’s definitely good.
