There are several reasons why people may experience mental health problems. Firstly, the high pressure and stress from work, study, and daily life can lead to anxiety and depression. Secondly, the lack of proper communication and support from family and friends can make people feel lonely and isolated.

To maintain mental health and happiness, people should take some measures. Firstly, they need to learn to manage stress and time effectively. This can include setting priorities, making a schedule, and taking breaks when needed. Secondly, they should build good relationships with others by communicating and sharing feelings.

Grammar and Vocabulary （每题1分；共20分） Section A Directions: After reading the passage below, fill in the blanks to make the passage coherent and grammatically correct. For the blanks with a given word, fill in each blank with the proper form of the given word; for the other blanks, use one word that best fits each blank. (A) The Transformative Power of Solo Travel Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 1 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges. Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 2 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, growing up in an increasingly digital world, 3 (pursue) authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country with no one 4 (rely) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 5 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence. However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend 6 (research) local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women traveling alone are expected to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure 7 (respect) cultural norms may lead to serious consequences. Ultimately, those 8 have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 9 profound impact that no classroom education can match. As travel writer Pico Lyer once remarked, “We travel initially to lose ourselves; we travel next to find ourselves.” Perhaps this explains 10 more young people are choosing to embark on journeys alone, seeking not just destinations, but transformations. Section B Directions: Fill in each blank with a proper word chosen from the box. Each word can be used only once. Note that there is one word more than you need. A．accurately   B．craft   C． double-check   D．functions   E. laborious F. narrow G. pools   H. progressively   I. shares   J. tips   K. unlock Ask the right way With the introduction of accessible new AI systems like ChatGPT, travel will never be the same. AI has simplified planning and made it easier to discover new experience. Instead of a march through 11 research, users get similar results with a quick conversation with AI. AI is great for some travel 12 , like generating ideas, highlighting small businesses, and translating languages, but there are tricks to use it well, especially when it comes to traveling. Here’s how to best use AI for travel. Once you have chosen your destinations, 13 your search. AI is skilled at responding to specific interests, whether you’re looking for the best restaurant in an area or designing a five-day travel plan of off-the-beaten-path museums. AI is also useful in finding responses to prompts (提示) like “less crowded” or “underrated.” It is because unlike platforms such as TripAdvisor, the system 14 knowledge from all corners of the web, interprets results to fit your inquires best and then delivers the information in a conversational way. To 15 a good prompt, it’s crucial to ask questions in your native language. AI models can speak and understand many languages, and your grammar matters. The more precise your punctuation (标点) , spelling, and grammar, the more 16 AI will be able to understand you. Finally, always 17 AI’s answers against other sources as cross-referencing its suggestions with trusted platforms adds an extra layer of confidence to your planning. By mastering these 18 you can tap into this powerful generative engine to ensure a safer, better-informed and more satisfying travel experience. Every day, AI is rapidly evolving as more start-ups and companies figure out the best ways to 19 its potential to deliver information using natural language. As the system 20 gets more access to the web, learns what users want, and becomes more “intelligent, ” it will continue to shift travel in unexpected and groundbreaking ways. The future of travel is here. II.Reading Comprehension (共45分。 21-35每题1分；36-50每题2分) Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context It is springtime, and the city feels especially glorious. If we were to reflect on what has brought us joy in our daily life, birds would probably be enjoying a top 21 on the happy list for many. Especially those we saw outside of our windows or, in New York City, on the street. Three species in particular 22 the sidewalks, tops of buildings, fire escapes, window ledge (窗沿), and air conditioners: house sparrows, pigeons and starlings (椋鸟). All of these species are invasive. When these species were first introduced, the scientific fields of ecology and conservation were almost 23 , and now we know that for pest (害虫) control, this was a terrible idea. I have been studying starlings in New York City since 2016. I do so formally in museums and labs but in between my research I watch them 24 on the street. I was initially fascinated by their adaptability to the 25 landscape, especially their 26 flexibility. They will eat a pile of yellow rice on Columbus Avenue, a soft pretzel on Central Park West, and a flattened apple pie in the parking lot of a Costco in Queens. The sounds they make are so 27 that you might not recognize that they are coming from the same species. If you listen closely, you can hear their up-and-down whistling, whirring, and even an early video game laser-like sound. You may not consider it 28 enough to be called a song, but it is a song nonetheless. When you stare at them, as I have many times, they never ever appear to look at you, but they obviously see you because they 29 incredibly rapidly to absolutely any movement or disturbance. They are off 30 , always faster than I can draw my phone out in order to grab a good picture. Sometimes, I wish that I did not know about what else they do across the country, and could just enjoy watching them in quiet 31 . And I wonder if you can know about their paths of 32 and still appreciate aspects of their behavior. At times this winter, nothing in the 33 environment even came close to remind me of life or the natural world. And then way up in that bit of sky, beside the water tower, I spotted five of them. I’d know their triangular wings, and their suspicious (有疑心的) and 34 behavior, anywhere. As they flew up and 35 , they inspired my hope for bluer skies and future springtime. 21．A．peak B．spot C．attraction D．idea 22．A．impact B．imitate C．dominate D．threaten 23．A．nonstop B．nonexistent C．nonviolent D．nonprofit 24．A．legally B．academically C．generously D．informally 25．A．urban B．natural C．regional D．scenic 26．A．dietary B．flying C．communicative D．behavior 27．A．strange B．similar C．varied D．powerful 28．A．popular B．loud C．clear D．beautiful 29．A．stick B．object C．respond D．apply 30．A．in a flash B．in a word C．in a sense D．in a hurry 31．A．mood B．ignorance C．laboratories D．neighborhoods 32．A．creation B．exploration C．destruction D．depression 33．A．conserved B．hidden C．built D．connected 34．A．quick B．elegant C．commonplace D．dramatic 35．A．out of reach B．out of curiosity C．out of mind D．out of sight Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Charles Robert Darwin was born on 12 February 1809 in Shropshire, England. Darwin’s childhood passion was science, and his interest in chemistry, however, was clear; he was even nicknamed ‘Gas’ by his classmates. In 1825, his father sent him to study medicine at Edinburgh University, where he learned how to classify plants. Darwin became passionate about natural history and this became his focus while he studied at Cambridge. Darwin went on a voyage together with Robert Fitzroy, the captain of HMS Beagle, to South America to facilitate British trade in Patagonia. The journey was life-changing. Darwin spent much of the trip on land collecting samples of plants, animals and rocks, which helped him to develop an understanding of the processes that shape the Earth’s surface. Darwin’s analysis of the plants and animals that he gathered led him to express doubts on former explanations about how species formed and evolved over time. Darwin’s work convinced him that natural selection was key to understanding the development of the natural world. The theory of natural selection says that individuals of a species are more likely to survive when they inherit (经遗传获得) characteristics best suited for that specific environment. These features then become more widespread and can lead eventually to the development of a new species. With natural selection, Darwin argued how a wide variety of life forms developed over time from a single common ancestor. Darwin married his cousin, Emma Wedgwood, in 1839. When Darwin’s eldest daughter, Annie, died from a sudden illness in 1851, he lost his belief in God. His tenth and final child, Charles Waring Darwin, was born in 1856. Significantly for Darwin, this baby was disabled, altering how Darwin thought about the human species. Darwin had previously thought that species remained adapted until the environment changed; he now believed that every new variation was imperfect and that a struggle to survive was what drove species to adapt. Though rejected at the beginning, Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is nowadays well accepted by the scientific community as the best evidence-based explanation for the diversity and complexity of life on Earth. The Natural History Museum’s library alone has 478 editions of his On the Origin of Species in 38 languages. 36．What made Darwin reconsider the origin and development of species? A．Examining plants and animals collected. B．His desire for a voyage to different continents. C．Classifying samples in a journey to South America. D．His passion for natural history at Edinburgh University. 37．We can learn from paragraphs 1 to 3 that Darwin ________. A．used natural selection to develop new species B．enjoyed being called nicknames related to science C．learned some knowledge about plants when studying medicine D．argued with others over the diversity of life forms for a long period 38．Which of the following changed Darwin’s view on the human species? A．That he had ten children in all. B．His youngest son’s being disabled. C．That he lost his eldest daughter. D．His marriage with Emma Wedgwood. 39．This passage is mainly about ________. A．Darwin’s passion for medical science B．Darwin’s theory and experiments C．Charles Darwin’s changing interest D．Charles Darwin’s life and work (B) The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

The British Museum has a well-earned reputation as an “encyclopaedic” museum, with a global story told through eight million objects. Inside, a wide-ranging collection includes everything from prehistoric pottery to precious handmade jewellery from India and Ming Dynasty vases from China. The museum helps us understand how events that happened at different times and in different places were connected, and how they influenced each other. Indeed, this was the vision of its founder, Sir Hans Sloane, who tried setting up cross-cultural comparisons in his original collection in 1753. As you walk around the British Museum today, it’s clear that Sloane’s broad-minded vision is very much alive and well. What’s less clear is how the museum acquired many of the objects on display and whether they should remain there. The collection has an obvious political dimension: while some objects have a well-documented history, others were added during Britain’s colonial period, so it’s possible they were stolen from famous archaeological sites or acquired in the war. Imagine having an important national monument from your country kept permanently in another country. How would you feel? Would you try to get the country to return it? It’s not surprising that many countries have gone on to ask for their treasures back. However; where they should be kept is a question that is still heatedly debated. The Rosetta Stone is a well-known exhibit that illustrates this problem. Carved in 196BCE, the stone was the key to unlocking the language of the ancient Egyptians. It was first discovered in 1799 near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta) by soldiers in Napoleon’s army, but on Napoleon’s defeat in 1801, it became the property of the British. Many of the museum’s treasures were acquired in a similar way, but unsurprisingly, the British Museum is reluctant to let the Rosetta Stone go. It argues that more people see the Stone in London than they would in Cairo, the location is more secure and the exhibit is a critical part of its global collection. The Egyptian government has other ideas and is trying to persuade the museum to return it. They claim that it’s important for their nation’s history and identity, and that many Egyptians can’t afford to go to London to see it. But the British Museum won’t let the Rosetta Stone go, even as a loan, as they fear it won’t be returned. The British Museum is a place dedicated to international understanding, and the advantages of an encyclopaedic museum are clear to see: “We need to explore common ground, how people perceive their relationship to each other...and (to) see human history as an ongoing joint project,” explains MacGregor, former director of the British Museum. But this attempt to bring different cultures together has been self-defeating, ultimately having the opposite effect: taking treasures from other countries has resulted in never-ending international arguments and frosty relations with foreign governments. So as you admire the breathtaking objects on display at the museum, think about their heritage. Remember to ask yourself: Does the end justify the means? Is taking an object for a museum different from theft? And shouldn’t important objects be exhibited where they were originally made? 43．Which of the following words is similar in meaning to “encyclopaedic” (paragraph 1) ? A．being famous for its modern exhibitions. B．focusing only on ancient artifacts. C．containing a wide range of knowledge or information. D．owned by a private collector for personal use. 44．Why does the British Museum refuse to return the Rosetta Stone to Egypt? A．Because Egypt lacks the financial resources to protect it. B．Because more visitors can see it in London and its location is safer. C．Because the stone was legally purchased during colonial times. D．Because the Egyptian government has not formally requested its return. 45．The author’s attitude toward the British Museum’s argument is ______. A．strongly supportive B．completely neutral C．slightly skeptical D．openly against 46．What can be inferred about the “encyclopaedic museum” vision? A．It ignores the historical context of artifact acquisition. B．It successfully promotes global cultural harmony. C．It intentionally worsen international tensions. D．It prioritizes scientific research over national heritage. Section C Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box Each sentence can only be used once. Note that there are two sentences more than you need. How to Live a Happy Life Happiness is what we need most with the increase of pressure in modern life.

(A) The Transformative Power of Solo Travel Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 1 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges. Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 2 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, growing up in an increasingly digital world, 3 (pursue) authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country with no one 4 (rely) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 5 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence. However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend 6 (research) local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women traveling alone are expected to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure 7 (respect) cultural norms may lead to serious consequences. Ultimately, those 8 have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 9 profound impact that no classroom education can match. As travel writer Pico Lyer once remarked, “We travel initially to lose ourselves; we travel next to find ourselves.” Perhaps this explains 10 more young people are choosing to embark on journeys alone, seeking not just destinations, but transformations.

Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context It is springtime, and the city feels especially glorious. If we were to reflect on what has brought us joy in our daily life, birds would probably be enjoying a top 21 on the happy list for many. Especially those we saw outside of our windows or, in New York City, on the street. Three species in particular 22 the sidewalks, tops of buildings, fire escapes, window ledge (窗沿), and air conditioners: house sparrows, pigeons and starlings (椋鸟). All of these species are invasive. When these species were first introduced, the scientific fields of ecology and conservation were almost 23 , and now we know that for pest (害虫) control, this was a terrible idea. I have been studying starlings in New York City since 2016. I do so formally in museums and labs but in between my research I watch them 24 on the street. I was initially fascinated by their adaptability to the 25 landscape, especially their 26 flexibility. They will eat a pile of yellow rice on Columbus Avenue, a soft pretzel on Central Park West, and a flattened apple pie in the parking lot of a Costco in Queens. The sounds they make are so 27 that you might not recognize that they are coming from the same species. If you listen closely, you can hear their up-and-down whistling, whirring, and even an early video game laser-like sound. You may not consider it 28 enough to be called a song, but it is a song nonetheless. When you stare at them, as I have many times, they never ever appear to look at you, but they obviously see you because they 29 incredibly rapidly to absolutely any movement or disturbance. They are off 30 , always faster than I can draw my phone out in order to grab a good picture. Sometimes, I wish that I did not know about what else they do across the country, and could just enjoy watching them in quiet 31 . And I wonder if you can know about their paths of 32 and still appreciate aspects of their behavior. At times this winter, nothing in the 33 environment even came close to remind me of life or the natural world. And then way up in that bit of sky, beside the water tower, I spotted five of them. I’d know their triangular wings, and their suspicious (有疑心的) and 34 behavior, anywhere. As they flew up and 35 , they inspired my hope for bluer skies and future springtime. 21．A．peak B．spot C．attraction D．idea 22．A．impact B．imitate C．dominate D．threaten 23．A．nonstop B．nonexistent C．nonviolent D．nonprofit 24．A．legally B．academically C．generously D．informally 25．A．urban B．natural C．regional D．scenic 26．A．dietary B．flying C．communicative D．behavior 27．A．strange B．similar C．varied D．powerful 28．A．popular B．loud C．clear D．beautiful 29．A．stick B．object C．respond D．apply 30．A．in a flash B．in a word C．in a sense D．in a hurry 31．A．mood B．ignorance C．laboratories D．neighborhoods 32．A．creation B．exploration C．destruction D．depression 33．A．conserved B．hidden C．built D．connected 34．A．quick B．elegant C．commonplace D．dramatic 35．A．out of reach B．out of curiosity C．out of mind D．out of sight Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Charles Robert Darwin was born on 12 February 1809 in Shropshire, England. Darwin’s childhood passion was science, and his interest in chemistry, however, was clear; he was even nicknamed ‘Gas’ by his classmates. In 1825, his father sent him to study medicine at Edinburgh University, where he learned how to classify plants. Darwin became passionate about natural history and this became his focus while he studied at Cambridge. Darwin went on a voyage together with Robert Fitzroy, the captain of HMS Beagle, to South America to facilitate British trade in Patagonia. The journey was life-changing. Darwin spent much of the trip on land collecting samples of plants, animals and rocks, which helped him to develop an understanding of the processes that shape the Earth’s surface. Darwin’s analysis of the plants and animals that he gathered led him to express doubts on former explanations about how species formed and evolved over time. Darwin’s work convinced him that natural selection was key to understanding the development of the natural world. The theory of natural selection says that individuals of a species are more likely to survive when they inherit (经遗传获得) characteristics best suited for that specific environment. These features then become more widespread and can lead eventually to the development of a new species. With natural selection, Darwin argued how a wide variety of life forms developed over time from a single common ancestor. Darwin married his cousin, Emma Wedgwood, in 1839. When Darwin’s eldest daughter, Annie, died from a sudden illness in 1851, he lost his belief in God. His tenth and final child, Charles Waring Darwin, was born in 1856. Significantly for Darwin, this baby was disabled, altering how Darwin thought about the human species. Darwin had previously thought that species remained adapted until the environment changed; he now believed that every new variation was imperfect and that a struggle to survive was what drove species to adapt. Though rejected at the beginning, Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is nowadays well accepted by the scientific community as the best evidence-based explanation for the diversity and complexity of life on Earth. The Natural History Museum’s library alone has 478 editions of his On the Origin of Species in 38 languages. 36．What made Darwin reconsider the origin and development of species? A．Examining plants and animals collected. B．His desire for a voyage to different continents. C．Classifying samples in a journey to South America. D．His passion for natural history at Edinburgh University. 37．We can learn from paragraphs 1 to 3 that Darwin ________. A．used natural selection to develop new species B．enjoyed being called nicknames related to science C．learned some knowledge about plants when studying medicine D．argued with others over the diversity of life forms for a long period 38．Which of the following changed Darwin’s view on the human species? A．That he had ten children in all. B．His youngest son’s being disabled. C．That he lost his eldest daughter. D．His marriage with Emma Wedgwood. 39．This passage is mainly about ________. A．Darwin’s passion for medical science B．Darwin’s theory and experiments C．Charles Darwin’s changing interest D．Charles Darwin’s life and work (B) The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

The British Museum has a well-earned reputation as an “encyclopaedic” museum, with a global story told through eight million objects. Inside, a wide-ranging collection includes everything from prehistoric pottery to precious handmade jewellery from India and Ming Dynasty vases from China. The museum helps us understand how events that happened at different times and in different places were connected, and how they influenced each other. Indeed, this was the vision of its founder, Sir Hans Sloane, who tried setting up cross-cultural comparisons in his original collection in 1753. As you walk around the British Museum today, it’s clear that Sloane’s broad-minded vision is very much alive and well. What’s less clear is how the museum acquired many of the objects on display and whether they should remain there. The collection has an obvious political dimension: while some objects have a well-documented history, others were added during Britain’s colonial period, so it’s possible they were stolen from famous archaeological sites or acquired in the war. Imagine having an important national monument from your country kept permanently in another country. How would you feel? Would you try to get the country to return it? It’s not surprising that many countries have gone on to ask for their treasures back. However; where they should be kept is a question that is still heatedly debated. The Rosetta Stone is a well-known exhibit that illustrates this problem. Carved in 196BCE, the stone was the key to unlocking the language of the ancient Egyptians. It was first discovered in 1799 near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta) by soldiers in Napoleon’s army, but on Napoleon’s defeat in 1801, it became the property of the British. Many of the museum’s treasures were acquired in a similar way, but unsurprisingly, the British Museum is reluctant to let the Rosetta Stone go. It argues that more people see the Stone in London than they would in Cairo, the location is more secure and the exhibit is a critical part of its global collection. The Egyptian government has other ideas and is trying to persuade the museum to return it. They claim that it’s important for their nation’s history and identity, and that many Egyptians can’t afford to go to London to see it. But the British Museum won’t let the Rosetta Stone go, even as a loan, as they fear it won’t be returned. The British Museum is a place dedicated to international understanding, and the advantages of an encyclopaedic museum are clear to see: “We need to explore common ground, how people perceive their relationship to each other...and (to) see human history as an ongoing joint project,” explains MacGregor, former director of the British Museum. But this attempt to bring different cultures together has been self-defeating, ultimately having the opposite effect: taking treasures from other countries has resulted in never-ending international arguments and frosty relations with foreign governments. So as you admire the breathtaking objects on display at the museum, think about their heritage. Remember to ask yourself: Does the end justify the means? Is taking an object for a museum different from theft? And shouldn’t important objects be exhibited where they were originally made? 43．Which of the following words is similar in meaning to “encyclopaedic” (paragraph 1) ? A．being famous for its modern exhibitions. B．focusing only on ancient artifacts. C．containing a wide range of knowledge or information. D．owned by a private collector for personal use. 44．Why does the British Museum refuse to return the Rosetta Stone to Egypt? A．Because Egypt lacks the financial resources to protect it. B．Because more visitors can see it in London and its location is safer. C．Because the stone was legally purchased during colonial times. D．Because the Egyptian government has not formally requested its return. 45．The author’s attitude toward the British Museum’s argument is ______. A．strongly supportive B．completely neutral C．slightly skeptical D．openly against 46．What can be inferred about the “encyclopaedic museum” vision? A．It ignores the historical context of artifact acquisition. B．It successfully promotes global cultural harmony. C．It intentionally worsen international tensions. D．It prioritizes scientific research over national heritage. Section C Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box Each sentence can only be used once.

Though rejected at the beginning, Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is nowadays well accepted by the scientific community as the best evidence-based explanation for the diversity and complexity of life on Earth. The Natural History Museum’s library alone has 478 editions of his On the Origin of Species in 38 languages. 36．What made Darwin reconsider the origin and development of species? A．Examining plants and animals collected. B．His desire for a voyage to different continents. C．Classifying samples in a journey to South America. D．His passion for natural history at Edinburgh University. 37．We can learn from paragraphs 1 to 3 that Darwin ________. A．used natural selection to develop new species B．enjoyed being called nicknames related to science C．learned some knowledge about plants when studying medicine D．argued with others over the diversity of life forms for a long period 38．Which of the following changed Darwin’s view on the human species? A．That he had ten children in all. B．His youngest son’s being disabled. C．That he lost his eldest daughter. D．His marriage with Emma Wedgwood. 39．This passage is mainly about ________. A．Darwin’s passion for medical science B．Darwin’s theory and experiments C．Charles Darwin’s changing interest D．Charles Darwin’s life and work (B) The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

The British Museum has a well-earned reputation as an “encyclopaedic” museum, with a global story told through eight million objects. Inside, a wide-ranging collection includes everything from prehistoric pottery to precious handmade jewellery from India and Ming Dynasty vases from China. The museum helps us understand how events that happened at different times and in different places were connected, and how they influenced each other. Indeed, this was the vision of its founder, Sir Hans Sloane, who tried setting up cross-cultural comparisons in his original collection in 1753. As you walk around the British Museum today, it’s clear that Sloane’s broad-minded vision is very much alive and well. What’s less clear is how the museum acquired many of the objects on display and whether they should remain there. The collection has an obvious political dimension: while some objects have a well-documented history, others were added during Britain’s colonial period, so it’s possible they were stolen from famous archaeological sites or acquired in the war. Imagine having an important national monument from your country kept permanently in another country. How would you feel? Would you try to get the country to return it? It’s not surprising that many countries have gone on to ask for their treasures back. However; where they should be kept is a question that is still heatedly debated. The Rosetta Stone is a well-known exhibit that illustrates this problem. Carved in 196BCE, the stone was the key to unlocking the language of the ancient Egyptians. It was first discovered in 1799 near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta) by soldiers in Napoleon’s army, but on Napoleon’s defeat in 1801, it became the property of the British. Many of the museum’s treasures were acquired in a similar way, but unsurprisingly, the British Museum is reluctant to let the Rosetta Stone go. It argues that more people see the Stone in London than they would in Cairo, the location is more secure and the exhibit is a critical part of its global collection. The Egyptian government has other ideas and is trying to persuade the museum to return it. They claim that it’s important for their nation’s history and identity, and that many Egyptians can’t afford to go to London to see it. But the British Museum won’t let the Rosetta Stone go, even as a loan, as they fear it won’t be returned. The British Museum is a place dedicated to international understanding, and the advantages of an encyclopaedic museum are clear to see: “We need to explore common ground, how people perceive their relationship to each other...and (to) see human history as an ongoing joint project,” explains MacGregor, former director of the British Museum. But this attempt to bring different cultures together has been self-defeating, ultimately having the opposite effect: taking treasures from other countries has resulted in never-ending international arguments and frosty relations with foreign governments. So as you admire the breathtaking objects on display at the museum, think about their heritage. Remember to ask yourself: Does the end justify the means? Is taking an object for a museum different from theft? And shouldn’t important objects be exhibited where they were originally made? 43．Which of the following words is similar in meaning to “encyclopaedic” (paragraph 1) ? A．being famous for its modern exhibitions. B．focusing only on ancient artifacts. C．containing a wide range of knowledge or information. D．owned by a private collector for personal use. 44．Why does the British Museum refuse to return the Rosetta Stone to Egypt? A．Because Egypt lacks the financial resources to protect it. B．Because more visitors can see it in London and its location is safer. C．Because the stone was legally purchased during colonial times. D．Because the Egyptian government has not formally requested its return. 45．The author’s attitude toward the British Museum’s argument is ______. A．strongly supportive B．completely neutral 试题 第 9页（共 10页） 试题 第 10页（共 10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 内 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 装 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 订 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 线 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 外 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 装 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 订 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … 线 … … … … … … ○ … … … … … … … 学 校 ： __ __ __ __ __ __ __ 姓 名 ： __ __ __ __ __ __ _班 级 ： __ __ __ __ __ __ __ _考 号 ： __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ __ C．slightly skeptical D．openly against 46．What can be inferred about the “encyclopaedic museum” vision?

(A) The Transformative Power of Solo Travel Solo travel, considered by many as the ultimate form of self-discovery, has gained immense popularity among young adults in recent years. Unlike group tours 1 everything is arranged, traveling alone pushes individuals out of their comfort zones, forcing them to confront unexpected challenges. Statistics show that the number of solo travelers under 30 2 (increase) by 150% since 2015. What drives this trend? Psychologists suggest that young people, growing up in an increasingly digital world, 3 (pursue) authentic experiences that social media cannot provide. When you're alone in a foreign country with no one 4 (rely) on, every decision — from navigating public transportation 5 ordering food in a local dialect — becomes a lesson in independence. However, solo travel isn't without risks. Seasoned travelers recommend 6 (research) local customs thoroughly beforehand. In certain Middle Eastern countries, for instance, women traveling alone are expected to dress modestly to avoid unwanted attention. Failure 7 (respect) cultural norms may lead to serious consequences. Ultimately, those 8 have experienced solo travel often describe it as life-changing. The challenges overcome and perspectives gained tend to have 9 profound impact that no classroom education can match.

AI has simplified planning and made it easier to discover new experience. Instead of a march through 11 research, users get similar results with a quick conversation with AI. AI is great for some travel 12 , like generating ideas, highlighting small businesses, and translating languages, but there are tricks to use it well, especially when it comes to traveling. Here’s how to best use AI for travel. Once you have chosen your destinations, 13 your search. AI is skilled at responding to specific interests, whether you’re looking for the best restaurant in an area or designing a five-day travel plan of off-the-beaten-path museums. AI is also useful in finding responses to prompts (提示) like “less crowded” or “underrated.” It is because unlike platforms such as TripAdvisor, the system 14 knowledge from all corners of the web, interprets results to fit your inquires best and then delivers the information in a conversational way. To 15 a good prompt, it’s crucial to ask questions in your native language. AI models can speak and understand many languages, and your grammar matters. The more precise your punctuation (标点) , spelling, and grammar, the more 16 AI will be able to understand you. Finally, always 17 AI’s answers against other sources as cross-referencing its suggestions with trusted platforms adds an extra layer of confidence to your planning. By mastering these 18 you can tap into this powerful generative engine to ensure a safer, better-informed and more satisfying travel experience. Every day, AI is rapidly evolving as more start-ups and companies figure out the best ways to 19 its potential to deliver information using natural language.

B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context It is springtime, and the city feels especially glorious. If we were to reflect on what has brought us joy in our daily life, birds would probably be enjoying a top 21 on the happy list for many. Especially those we saw outside of our windows or, in New York City, on the street. Three species in particular 22 the sidewalks, tops of buildings, fire escapes, window ledge (窗沿), and air conditioners: house sparrows, pigeons and starlings (椋鸟). All of these species are invasive. When these species were first introduced, the scientific fields of ecology and conservation were almost 23 , and now we know that for pest (害虫) control, this was a terrible idea. I have been studying starlings in New York City since 2016. I do so formally in museums and labs but in between my research I watch them 24 on the street. I was initially fascinated by their adaptability to the 25 landscape, especially their 26 flexibility. They will eat a pile of yellow rice on Columbus Avenue, a soft pretzel on Central Park West, and a flattened apple pie in the parking lot of a Costco in Queens. The sounds they make are so 27 that you might not recognize that they are coming from the same species. If you listen closely, you can hear their up-and-down whistling, whirring, and even an early video game laser-like sound. You may not consider it 28 enough to be called a song, but it is a song nonetheless. When you stare at them, as I have many times, they never ever appear to look at you, but they obviously see you because they 29 incredibly rapidly to absolutely any movement or disturbance. They are off 30 , always faster than I can draw my phone out in order to grab a good picture. Sometimes, I wish that I did not know about what else they do across the country, and could just enjoy watching them in quiet 31 . And I wonder if you can know about their paths of 32 and still appreciate aspects of their behavior. At times this winter, nothing in the 33 environment even came close to remind me of life or the natural world. And then way up in that bit of sky, beside the water tower, I spotted five of them. I’d know their triangular wings, and their suspicious (有疑心的) and 34 behavior, anywhere. As they flew up and 35 , they inspired my hope for bluer skies and future springtime. 21．A．peak B．spot C．attraction D．idea 22．A．impact B．imitate C．dominate D．threaten 23．A．nonstop B．nonexistent C．nonviolent D．nonprofit 24．A．legally B．academically C．generously D．informally 25．A．urban B．natural C．regional D．scenic 26．A．dietary B．flying C．communicative D．behavior 27．A．strange B．similar C．varied D．powerful 28．A．popular B．loud C．clear D．beautiful 29．A．stick B．object C．respond D．apply 30．A．in a flash B．in a word C．in a sense D．in a hurry 31．A．mood B．ignorance C．laboratories D．neighborhoods 32．A．creation B．exploration C．destruction D．depression 33．A．conserved B．hidden C．built D．connected 34．A．quick B．elegant C．commonplace D．dramatic 35．A．out of reach B．out of curiosity C．out of mind D．out of sight 【答案】 21．B 22．C 23．B 24．D 25．A 26．A 27．C 28．D 29．C 30．A 31．B 32．C 33．C 34．A 35．D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者对城市中常见鸟类的观察与感受，以及它们带来的希望与生机。 21．考查名词词义辨析。句意：如果我们反思日常生活中给我们带来快乐的事物，对许多人来说，鸟类可能会在快乐清单上占据首位。A. peak山峰；B. spot地点；C. attraction吸引力；D. idea想法。根据下文“on the happy list”可知，此处表示在快乐清单上占据首位，a top spot表示“首位”。故选B。 22．考查动词词义辨析。句意：三种鸟类尤其占据人行道、建筑物顶部、防火梯、窗沿和空调：麻雀、鸽子和椋鸟。A. impact影响；B. imitate模仿；C. dominate占据主导地位；D. threaten威胁。根据下文“the sidewalks, tops of buildings, fire escapes, window ledge (窗沿), and air conditioners”可知，此处表示这三种鸟类占据这些地方。故选C。 23．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：当这些物种首次被引入时，生态学和保护科学的领域几乎不存在，现在我们知道，为了控制害虫，这是一个糟糕的想法。A. nonstop不停的；B. nonexistent不存在的；C. nonviolent非暴力的；D. nonprofit非营利的。根据下文“and now we know that for pest (害虫) control, this was a terrible idea.”可知，此处表示当时这些领域几乎不存在。故选B。 24．考查副词词义辨析。句意：我在博物馆和实验室里正式研究它们，但在研究之间，我在街上非正式地观察它们。A. legally合法地；B. academically学术上；C. generously慷慨地；D. informally非正式地。根据上文“I do so formally in museums and labs but in between my research I watch them”和下文“on the street”可知，此处与上文形成对比，指在街头“非正式地”观察它们。故选D。 25．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：最初，我对它们对城市景观的适应性感到着迷，尤其是它们的饮食灵活性。A. urban城市的；B. natural自然的；C. regional地区的；D. scenic风景优美的。根据下文“They will eat a pile of yellow rice on Columbus Avenue, a soft pretzel on Central Park West, and a flattened apple pie in the parking lot of a Costco in Queens.”可知，此处表示这些鸟对城市景观的适应。故选A。 26．考查形容词词义辨析。句意同上。A. dietary饮食的；B. flying飞行的；C. communicative交际的；D. behavior行为的。根据下文“They will eat a pile of yellow rice on Columbus Avenue, a soft pretzel on Central Park West, and a flattened apple pie in the parking lot of a Costco in Queens.”可知，此处表示它们的饮食灵活性。故选A。 27．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：它们发出的声音如此多种多样，以至于你可能认不出它们来自同一物种。A. strange奇怪的；B. similar相似的；C. varied多样的；D. powerful有力的。根据下文“you can hear their up-and-down whistling, whirring, and even an early video game laser-like sound”可知，此处表示它们发出的声音多种多样。故选C。 28．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：你可能认为它不够优美称不上一首歌，但它仍然算是一首歌。A. popular受欢迎的；B. loud大声的；C. clear清楚的；D. beautiful优美的。根据下文“enough to be called a song, but it is a song nonetheless”可知，前后为转折关系，此处指叫声可能不够“优美”，但仍属于歌声。故选D。 29．考查动词词义辨析。句意：当你盯着它们看时，就像我多次做的那样，它们似乎从来不会看你，但它们显然看到了你，因为它们对任何运动或干扰的反应都非常迅速。A. stick坚持；B. object反对；C. respond反应；D. apply申请。根据下文“to absolutely any movement or disturbance”可知，此处表示它们对任何运动或干扰的反应都非常迅速。故选C。 30．考查介词短语辨析。句意：它们立刻飞走了，总是比我拿出手机拍一张好照片的速度还要快。A. in a flash立刻；B. in a word总之；C. in a sense在某种意义上；D. in a hurry匆忙地。根据下文“always faster than I can draw my phone out in order to grab a good picture.”可知，此处表示它们飞走的速度很快，立刻飞走了。故选A。 31．考查名词词义辨析。句意：有时，我希望自己不知道它们在全国范围内还做了什么，只想在无知中安静地欣赏它们。A. mood情绪；B. ignorance无知；C. laboratories实验室；D. neighborhoods街区。根据上文“I wish that I did not know about what else they do across the country”可知，作者希望“不知道”椋鸟的负面影响，即处于“无知”状态。故选B。 32．考查名词词义辨析。句意：我想知道你是否了解它们的破坏路径，但仍然欣赏它们行为的一些方面。A. creation创造；B. exploration探索；C. destruction破坏；D. depression沮丧。根据上文“All of these species are invasive”可知，椋鸟作为入侵物种会造成“破坏”。故选C。 33．考查动词词义辨析。句意：今年冬天的某些时候，在建筑环境中，没有任何东西能让我联想到生命或自然世界。A. conserved保护；B. hidden隐藏；C. built建筑，建成的；D. connected连接。根据下文“environment even came close to remind me of life or the natural world”可知，与natural world对比，此处指城市中“建筑”的环境（如建筑、街道等）。故选C。 34．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：无论在哪里，我都会认出它们三角形的翅膀，以及它们多疑和敏捷的行为。A. quick快的；B. elegant优雅的；C. commonplace普通的；D. dramatic戏剧性的。根据上文“They are off 10　, always faster than I can draw my phone out in order to grab a good picture”可知，椋鸟的行为反应“敏捷”。故选A。 35．考查介词短语辨析。句意：当它们飞起来又消失时，它们激发了我对更蓝的天空和未来春天的希望。A. out of reach够不着；B. out of curiosity出于好奇；C. out of mind心不在焉；D. out of sight看不见。根据上文“As they flew up”可知，椋鸟飞走后“消失在视线中”。故选D。 Section B Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read. (A) Charles Robert Darwin was born on 12 February 1809 in Shropshire, England. Darwin’s childhood passion was science, and his interest in chemistry, however, was clear; he was even nicknamed ‘Gas’ by his classmates. In 1825, his father sent him to study medicine at Edinburgh University, where he learned how to classify plants. Darwin became passionate about natural history and this became his focus while he studied at Cambridge. Darwin went on a voyage together with Robert Fitzroy, the captain of HMS Beagle, to South America to facilitate British trade in Patagonia. The journey was life-changing. Darwin spent much of the trip on land collecting samples of plants, animals and rocks, which helped him to develop an understanding of the processes that shape the Earth’s surface. Darwin’s analysis of the plants and animals that he gathered led him to express doubts on former explanations about how species formed and evolved over time. Darwin’s work convinced him that natural selection was key to understanding the development of the natural world. The theory of natural selection says that individuals of a species are more likely to survive when they inherit (经遗传获得) characteristics best suited for that specific environment. These features then become more widespread and can lead eventually to the development of a new species. With natural selection, Darwin argued how a wide variety of life forms developed over time from a single common ancestor. Darwin married his cousin, Emma Wedgwood, in 1839. When Darwin’s eldest daughter, Annie, died from a sudden illness in 1851, he lost his belief in God. His tenth and final child, Charles Waring Darwin, was born in 1856. Significantly for Darwin, this baby was disabled, altering how Darwin thought about the human species. Darwin had previously thought that species remained adapted until the environment changed; he now believed that every new variation was imperfect and that a struggle to survive was what drove species to adapt. Though rejected at the beginning, Darwin’s theory of evolution by natural selection is nowadays well accepted by the scientific community as the best evidence-based explanation for the diversity and complexity of life on Earth. The Natural History Museum’s library alone has 478 editions of his On the Origin of Species in 38 languages. 36．What made Darwin reconsider the origin and development of species? A．Examining plants and animals collected. B．His desire for a voyage to different continents. C．Classifying samples in a journey to South America. D．His passion for natural history at Edinburgh University. 37．We can learn from paragraphs 1 to 3 that Darwin ________. A．used natural selection to develop new species B．enjoyed being called nicknames related to science C．learned some knowledge about plants when studying medicine D．argued with others over the diversity of life forms for a long period 38．Which of the following changed Darwin’s view on the human species? A．That he had ten children in all. B．His youngest son’s being disabled. C．That he lost his eldest daughter. D．His marriage with Emma Wedgwood. 39．This passage is mainly about ________. A．Darwin’s passion for medical science B．Darwin’s theory and experiments C．Charles Darwin’s changing interest D．Charles Darwin’s life and work 【答案】36．A 37．C 38．B 39．D 【导语】这是一篇人物传记，讲述了查尔斯·罗伯特·达尔文的生平、科学兴趣、重要理论以及他的个人生活。 36．细节理解题。由文章第二段最后一句“Darwin’s analysis of the plants and animals that he gathered led him to express doubts on former explanations about how species formed and evolved over time. ”（达尔文对所收集的植物和动物的分析使他开始质疑过去关于物种如何形成和随时间演化的解释。）可知，达尔文对所收集的植物和动物的分析使他对物种的起源和发展产生质疑和重新审议。故选A项。 37．细节理解题。由文章第二段第一句“In 1825, his father sent him to study medicine at Edinburgh University, where he learned how to classify plants. ”（1825年，他的父亲送他去爱丁堡大学学医，在那里他学会了如何对植物进行分类。）可推断，达尔文在学医时候了解到了关于植物的知识。故选C项。 38．细节理解题。由文章第四段第二句和三句“His tenth and final child, Charles Waring Darwin, was born in 1856. Significantly for Darwin, this baby was disabled, altering how Darwin thought about the human species. ”（他的第十个也是最后一个孩子查尔斯·沃林·达尔文于1856年出生。对达尔文来说，这个婴儿是残疾的，这改变了达尔文对人类物种的看法。）可知，达尔文最小的孩子的先天残疾使达尔文改变了人类物种的看法。故选B项。 39．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章前三段主要讲述了查尔斯·罗伯特·达尔文的生平、学业经历、科学兴趣对其理论形成和发展的影响。第四段讲述了他的家庭和个人生活、最后一段讲述了达尔文理论的地位和影响。因此，文章主要讲述了达尔文的生活和工作。故选D项。 (B) The Met High School Internship Program The Met High School Internship Program offers paid opportunities for students who are two to three years from graduating high school in New York City.

The British Museum has a well-earned reputation as an “encyclopaedic” museum, with a global story told through eight million objects. Inside, a wide-ranging collection includes everything from prehistoric pottery to precious handmade jewellery from India and Ming Dynasty vases from China. The museum helps us understand how events that happened at different times and in different places were connected, and how they influenced each other. Indeed, this was the vision of its founder, Sir Hans Sloane, who tried setting up cross-cultural comparisons in his original collection in 1753. As you walk around the British Museum today, it’s clear that Sloane’s broad-minded vision is very much alive and well. What’s less clear is how the museum acquired many of the objects on display and whether they should remain there. The collection has an obvious political dimension: while some objects have a well-documented history, others were added during Britain’s colonial period, so it’s possible they were stolen from famous archaeological sites or acquired in the war. Imagine having an important national monument from your country kept permanently in another country. How would you feel? Would you try to get the country to return it? It’s not surprising that many countries have gone on to ask for their treasures back. However; where they should be kept is a question that is still heatedly debated. The Rosetta Stone is a well-known exhibit that illustrates this problem. Carved in 196BCE, the stone was the key to unlocking the language of the ancient Egyptians. It was first discovered in 1799 near the town of el-Rashid (Rosetta) by soldiers in Napoleon’s army, but on Napoleon’s defeat in 1801, it became the property of the British. Many of the museum’s treasures were acquired in a similar way, but unsurprisingly, the British Museum is reluctant to let the Rosetta Stone go. It argues that more people see the Stone in London than they would in Cairo, the location is more secure and the exhibit is a critical part of its global collection. The Egyptian government has other ideas and is trying to persuade the museum to return it. They claim that it’s important for their nation’s history and identity, and that many Egyptians can’t afford to go to London to see it. But the British Museum won’t let the Rosetta Stone go, even as a loan, as they fear it won’t be returned. The British Museum is a place dedicated to international understanding, and the advantages of an encyclopaedic museum are clear to see: “We need to explore common ground, how people perceive their relationship to each other...and (to) see human history as an ongoing joint project,” explains MacGregor, former director of the British Museum. But this attempt to bring different cultures together has been self-defeating, ultimately having the opposite effect: taking treasures from other countries has resulted in never-ending international arguments and frosty relations with foreign governments. So as you admire the breathtaking objects on display at the museum, think about their heritage. Remember to ask yourself: Does the end justify the means? Is taking an object for a museum different from theft? And shouldn’t important objects be exhibited where they were originally made? 43．Which of the following words is similar in meaning to “encyclopaedic” (paragraph 1) ? A．being famous for its modern exhibitions. B．focusing only on ancient artifacts. C．containing a wide range of knowledge or information. D．owned by a private collector for personal use. 44．Why does the British Museum refuse to return the Rosetta Stone to Egypt? A．Because Egypt lacks the financial resources to protect it. B．Because more visitors can see it in London and its location is safer. C．Because the stone was legally purchased during colonial times. D．Because the Egyptian government has not formally requested its return. 45．The author’s attitude toward the British Museum’s argument is ______. A．strongly supportive B．completely neutral C．slightly skeptical D．openly against 46．What can be inferred about the “encyclopaedic museum” vision? A．It ignores the historical context of artifact acquisition. B．It successfully promotes global cultural harmony. C．It intentionally worsen international tensions. D．It prioritizes scientific research over national heritage. 【答案】43．C 44．B 45．D 46．A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕大英博物馆展品来源及归属问题展开讨论，以罗塞塔石碑为例，指出该馆拒绝归还他国文物引发争议，质疑其做法的合理性。 43．词句猜测题。根据第一段中“The British Museum has a well-earned reputation as an “encyclopaedic” museum, with a global story told through eight million objects. Inside, a wide ranging collection includes everything from prehistoric pottery to precious handmade jewellery from India and Ming Dynasty vases from China. (大英博物馆作为一座“encyclopaedic”博物馆实至名归，馆藏八百万件文物向世人述说着全球文明的故事。其浩瀚馆藏包罗万象，从史前陶器到印度手工精制珠宝，再到中国明代瓷器，无不尽收其中)”可知，大英博物馆的藏品范围广泛，涵盖了不同时期和不同地区的物品，包罗万象。所以“encyclopaedic”意思应是包含广泛的知识或信息，与C项“containing a wide range of knowledge or information”意思相近。故选C项。 44．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Many of the museum’s treasures were acquired in a similar way, but unsurprisingly, the British Museum is reluctant to let the Rosetta Stone go. It argues that more people see the Stone in London than they would in Cairo, the location is more secure and the exhibit is a critical part of its global collection. (博物馆的许多宝藏都是以类似的方式获得的，但不出所料，大英博物馆不愿让罗塞塔石碑离开。它辩称，在伦敦看到这块石头的人比在开罗看到的人更多，存放地点更安全，而且该展品是其全球藏品的重要组成部分)”可知，大英博物馆拒绝将罗塞塔石碑归还给埃及是因为在伦敦有更多人能看到它，且存放地点更安全。故选B项。 45．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“But this attempt to bring different cultures together has been self-defeating, ultimately having the opposite effect: taking treasures from other countries has resulted in never ending international arguments and frosty relations with foreign governments. (但这种将不同文化汇聚在一起的尝试适得其反，最终产生了相反的效果：从其他国家拿走珍宝导致了无休止的国际争论和与外国政府的冷淡关系)”可知，作者认为大英博物馆拿走他国珍宝的行为带来了负面结果，说明作者对大英博物馆拒绝归还文物的理由是公开反对的。故选D项。 46．推理判断题。根据第二段中“What’s less clear is how the museum acquired many of the objects on display and whether they should remain there. The collection has an obvious political dimension: while some objects have a well-documented history, others were added during Britain’s colonial period, so it’s possible they were stolen from famous archaeological sites or acquired in the war. (不太清楚的是，博物馆是如何获得许多展出物品的，以及这些物品是否应该继续留在那里。这些藏品具有明显的政治层面：虽然有些物品有详细的历史记录，但其他一些是在英国殖民时期增加的，所以它们有可能是从著名的考古遗址被盗走或在战争中获得的)”可知，大英博物馆所谓的“百科全书式博物馆”愿景忽略了文物获取的历史背景。故选A项。 Section C Directions: Complete the following passage by using the sentences in the box Each sentence can only be used once.
