Day 1: Paint Mine Interpretive Park A small parking lot and a sign complete the entrance, and a short walk down a path takes you to your destination: a 750-acre “garden” that turns shades of purple into nightfall. The roads aren’t well-marked. Bring a flashlight and pay attention to your tracks so that you can find the way back. Day 2: Westcliffe After stopping in Florence, Colorado’s “Antique Capital”, for lunch at Turmeric Indian & Nepalese Restaurant, you’ll find yourself in the twin towns of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff. Sitting at 8,000 feet with mountain tops on three sides, Westcliffe is the world’s highest International Dark Sky Community. Day 3: La Veta This town attracts artists, music lovers, and serious food lovers. Spend the evening over a leisurely meal at Alys’ Restaurant, an amazing experience outside Chef Alys’ home. After dinner, look up: The street of La Veta, which has a total population of 863, is the main spot for counting shooting stars. Day 4: Great Sand Dunes(沙丘) National Park and preserve Named a dark sky park in spring 2025, Great Sand Dunes National Park and preserve—with its color-changing hills and countless stars—attracts night time crowds. Don’t follow them. Instead, go to the north access point. Without crowds of visitors waving flashlights, you’ll get much brighter views of the Milky Way dancing above the dunes. 36. What should visitors pay special attention to on Day 1? A. Walking slowly. B. Remembering the route. C. Finding a parking lot. D. Wearing warm clothes. 37. If you enjoy night sky views on a high spot, you should choose _. A. La Veta B. Paint Mine Interpretive Park C. Westcliff e D. Great Sand Dunes National Park and preserve 38. What can we know about La Veta? A. It offers delicious meals to visitors. B. It provides free hotels for visitors. C. It has large numbers of streets. D. It's known for the birthplace of famous artists. 39. The north access point is suggested for stargazing at Great Sand Dunes, because _. A star- counting competitions are held there B. various dance shows take place there C. special flashlights are given out there D. visitors can have clearer views there 40. What is the purpose of the text? A. To offer tips on safe travel. B. To introduce parks in Colorado. C. To show a dark sky trip plan. D. To compare different tourist cities. B To Dr. Krithi Karanth, every person is naturally connected to nature from birth. Yet in rural India, where she works, this connection is often under tension. Kids see pretty dramatic scenes of conflict in their villages: elephants destroy crops, tigers take domestic animals, and sometimes local people are badly injured by wild animals. “Children develop negative views of wildlife as they grow up,” Karanth explains. “Simply knowing India has the world’s largest populations of tigers or Asian elephants doesn’t inspire their pride — it’s not related to them.” Karanth became a conservation scientist in 1999, and a critical moment came in 2017 at the National Geographic Society’s Explorers Festival. Speaking with fellow explorer Gabby Salazar, Karanth discovered that Salazar possessed exceptional educational expertise (专业知识) and had long sought to apply it meaningfully. Karanth then suggested combining education, art, and games to reconnect rural children with wildlife. Karanth’s suggestion immediately drew Salazar. Within six months, the two pooled their strengths and developed the first version of Wild Shaale, an innovative (创新的) program featuring art-based modules, multimedia storytelling, and play-based learning. “Apart from these elements, encouraging the students to find similarities between themselves and wildlife also makes a difference,” Karanth notes. Today, the program has reached over 700 schools and 30,000 children aged 10 to 13 in villages across 20 wildlife parks in India’s Western Ghats. Besides, another 300 schools are expected to join the program within the next year. The impact of Wild Shaale is seen in simple yet profound ways—handwritten notes from students, small gifts like feathers and seeds left for educators, as well as an increasing number of curious questions about wildlife. With Wild Shaale’s success in India, Karanth hopes to expand the program globally. “What works for Indian tigers could adapt to jaguars in South America, cougars in North America, or lions in Africa,” she says. “I believe Wild Shaale should go to every kid on the planet.” 41. How might India’s rural children originally regard wildlife? A. As makers of peace. B. As dangerous threats. C. As national symbols. D. As sources of income. 42. What led to the plan for Wild Shale in the beginning? A. A change in official policies. B. Research findings about wildlife. C. Support from local communities. D. An inspiring exchange of ideas. 43. Which of the following is covered in Wild Shale’s strategies? A. Close-up observation. B. Personalized instruction. C. Standardized testing. D. Emotional connection 44. The figures in paragraph 4 mainly demonstrate ________. A. Wild Shale’s advantages over traditional teaching B. children’s strong awareness of ecological issues C. children’s wide acceptance of Wild Shale D. Wild Shale’s recognition within conservation circles 45. How does Karanth feel about Wild Shale’s future? A. Confident. B. Puzzled. C. Indifferent. D. Worried. C “Look for the gap” “ Move into space” Sound familiar? From the sidelines to the field, no matter the team sport, looking for relevant information in the playing environment can be as important as any other skill if you want to score. Think Allen Iverson, Scott Pendlebury, or Natalie Medhurst, coolly judging all the options before making important decisions. How do these excellent athletes become so great? As well as their physical strengths, their brainpower is an obvious advantage. Regardless of whether an athlete is playing backyard cricket or Olympic basketball, their playing environment holds important information that must be found, explained and then acted on. Research conducted at Western Sydney University finds skilled players are better at looking for and seeing the options and what’s happening around them in the playing environment. They tend to look both at an opponent (对手) and at where they can move next. Less skilled players, however, might watch only one detail but not what is happening around them. Skilled players are also often faster to make decisions compared to less skilled players; their experiences create more stored memories that help speed up their decision-making. Essentially, skilled players know what information is the most relevant to focus on and they act on it quickly. Adding to this picture is new research that explores the negative impact of mental fatigue (疲劳) on physical performance. This work shows that our ability to exercise can be affected negatively after activities requiring long periods of thinking and mental effort, particularly when these activities are boring. It first considers the impact of using the brain so much that it makes you physically tired. This may be particularly relevant for coaches of young players shifting from the school day to training, especially if the day’s lessons have been complex. Coaches should therefore map out appropriate strategies by considering the amount of information they provide for athletes and the complexity of the tasks and instructions. Overall, cognitive (认知的) skills, like physical qualities, are key to high performance and even play a role in identifying future potential. Cognition could be a reliable marker of ability over time and could provide some basis for prediction of talent. 46. Why are some great athletes mentioned in the text? A. To compare different sports. B. To highlight physical training. C. To stress mental skills in sports. D. To honor their achievements in sports. 47. According to paragraph 2, what advantage do skilled athletes tend to have? A. Faster moving speed. B. Wider focus of attention. C. More efficient teamwork. D. Stronger physical endurance. 48. Successful athletes make decisions quickly by _______. A. referring to previous experience B. ignoring all outside distractions C. learning from opponents’ strategies D. understanding coaches’ instructions 49. What does the author suggest coaches do after their players have had a hard school day? A. Lengthen the warm-up for training. B. Set the training intensity adaptively. C. Prioritize physical over cognitive training. D. Refer to their players’ previous performance. 50. What is the text mainly about? A. The quality of sports talent. B. The overall training in sports. C. The cognitive power in sports. D. The variables affecting sports. D There is a paradox (悖论) to being 20 meters under the ocean. It is a place of calm and wonder. I am immersed in a foreign world, with a new watery sky above me. There is a sense of peace as countless colorful fishes swim past. But the peacefulness is deceiving. As a beginner diver, my mind often goes into overdrive. All that stands between me and a painful fate is the tank of oxygen on my back. I must remember complex hand signals, from those that communicate an animal sighting to the essential “I’m out of air” signal. I also need to remember things like my dive time and depth, and the location of my friend. Therefore, the paradox: scuba diving (水肺潜水) is at once liberating and calm, and a challenging comprehension test. Funnily enough, the latter—the learning aspect of it—makes the former more enjoyable. When was the last time you learned a new skill? A truly new pursuit, not just an extension of your day-to-day? With busy lives and careers, the learning slows. It’s rare we try something truly new. Diving awakened me to the joy of learning new skills in adulthood. The activity is both exciting and has just enough danger to focus the mind; it forces you to wrestle with something unfamiliar and immerse yourself in the underwater world. It also forces you offline; there’s no checking emails 30 meters below the surface. With more dives, there is always more to learn. New dive sites also bring their own challenges. I’m lucky to have the time and money to take up new pursuits. Learning to dive isn’t cheap, but it’s worth every cent. One study found that people with hobbies had better health, more happiness and higher life satisfaction. So why not consider trying something new-truly new? There is a magical quality to being a beginner again, learning slowly, occasionally regressing (倒退) and sometimes progressing. And if you can do all that 20 meters under the sea, surrounded by curious turtles and friendly manta rays (蝠鲸), all the better. 51. What does the underlined word “immersed” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Trapped in a dangerous environment. B. Forced to adapt to underwater pressure. C. Distracted by surrounding creatures. D. completely involved in a new experience. 52. What is the paradox of scuba diving described in the text? A. It is both expensive and dangerous. B. It offers peace but requires strict training. C. It is a test of courage and a waste of time. D. It allows freedom but causes memory loss. 53. Why does the author say the peacefulness of diving is “deceiving”? A. Because beginners must stay focused on safety. B. Because underwater creatures are dangerous. C. Because oxygen tanks often fail unexpectedly. D. Because divers can easily get lost underwater. 54. How has diving influenced the author? A. It has helped the author to get over the fear of the ocean. B. It has improved their email management skills. C. It has caused the pleasure of acquiring unfamiliar abilities. D. It has made the author prefer underwater world to daily life. 55. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text? A. To warn beginners about the dangers of diving. B. To describe the beauty of underwater world. C. To encourage readers to try new experiences. D. To share tips on passing diving tests. 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Fatema’s love for volleyball started when she was nine years old in Iran because of encouragement from her uncle. Fatema didn’t have anywhere to play volleyball when she arrived in Australia, so she worked with community leaders to set up after-school matches in the local area. The community volleyball matches continued for three months and allowed Fatema to show her qualities as a skillful team player and leader among her peers. Fatema believes that she needs to play in a professional club. However, as training sessions and matches are often in the evenings, the timing is not convenient for her because she can’t use public transport at that time. The club registration cost is also a problem. Fatema is a thoughtful girl and doesn’t want to put a financial strain on her family, so she continues to look for after-school work to earn money that could help cover the club registration costs and other expenses. While she hasn’t joined a volleyball club yet, Fatema has joined the Dandenong Women’s Sports Hub for volleyball sessions run by the Centre for Multicultural Youth after school. Moslih, the coach, is inspired by her positive attitude towards various challenges since Fatema arrived in Australia. Moslih said,“I have seen Fatema in every volleyball class we’ve had! Fatema has proven to me how determined she is to realize her dream of playing volleyball, and it just makes me want to support her in every way that I can. I have not only seen her progress in her skills, but also her confidence and hard work. She is always the first to show up and the last to leave.” Fatema is a multi-talented young person. She can play the guitar skillfully. She is studying at high school and is aiming to become a police officer in the future. But her current goal is to earn some money through an after-school job to financially support her participation in the volleyball club. 56.

Day 1: Paint Mine Interpretive Park A small parking lot and a sign complete the entrance, and a short walk down a path takes you to your destination: a 750-acre “garden” that turns shades of purple into nightfall. The roads aren’t well-marked. Bring a flashlight and pay attention to your tracks so that you can find the way back. Day 2: Westcliffe After stopping in Florence, Colorado’s “Antique Capital”, for lunch at Turmeric Indian & Nepalese Restaurant, you’ll find yourself in the twin towns of Westcliffe and Silver Cliff. Sitting at 8,000 feet with mountain tops on three sides, Westcliffe is the world’s highest International Dark Sky Community. Day 3: La Veta This town attracts artists, music lovers, and serious food lovers. Spend the evening over a leisurely meal at Alys’ Restaurant, an amazing experience outside Chef Alys’ home. After dinner, look up: The street of La Veta, which has a total population of 863, is the main spot for counting shooting stars. Day 4: Great Sand Dunes(沙丘) National Park and preserve Named a dark sky park in spring 2025, Great Sand Dunes National Park and preserve—with its color-changing hills and countless stars—attracts night time crowds.

Yet in rural India, where she works, this connection is often under tension. Kids see pretty dramatic scenes of conflict in their villages: elephants destroy crops, tigers take domestic animals, and sometimes local people are badly injured by wild animals. “Children develop negative views of wildlife as they grow up,” Karanth explains. “Simply knowing India has the world’s largest populations of tigers or Asian elephants doesn’t inspire their pride — it’s not related to them.” Karanth became a conservation scientist in 1999, and a critical moment came in 2017 at the National Geographic Society’s Explorers Festival. Speaking with fellow explorer Gabby Salazar, Karanth discovered that Salazar possessed exceptional educational expertise (专业知识) and had long sought to apply it meaningfully. Karanth then suggested combining education, art, and games to reconnect rural children with wildlife. Karanth’s suggestion immediately drew Salazar. Within six months, the two pooled their strengths and developed the first version of Wild Shaale, an innovative (创新的) program featuring art-based modules, multimedia storytelling, and play-based learning. “Apart from these elements, encouraging the students to find similarities between themselves and wildlife also makes a difference,” Karanth notes. Today, the program has reached over 700 schools and 30,000 children aged 10 to 13 in villages across 20 wildlife parks in India’s Western Ghats. Besides, another 300 schools are expected to join the program within the next year. The impact of Wild Shaale is seen in simple yet profound ways—handwritten notes from students, small gifts like feathers and seeds left for educators, as well as an increasing number of curious questions about wildlife. With Wild Shaale’s success in India, Karanth hopes to expand the program globally. “What works for Indian tigers could adapt to jaguars in South America, cougars in North America, or lions in Africa,” she says. “I believe Wild Shaale should go to every kid on the planet.” 41. How might India’s rural children originally regard wildlife? A. As makers of peace. B. As dangerous threats. C. As national symbols. D. As sources of income. 42. What led to the plan for Wild Shale in the beginning? A. A change in official policies. B. Research findings about wildlife. C. Support from local communities. D. An inspiring exchange of ideas. 43. Which of the following is covered in Wild Shale’s strategies? A. Close-up observation. B. Personalized instruction. C. Standardized testing. D. Emotional connection 44. The figures in paragraph 4 mainly demonstrate ________. A. Wild Shale’s advantages over traditional teaching B. children’s strong awareness of ecological issues C. children’s wide acceptance of Wild Shale D. Wild Shale’s recognition within conservation circles 45. How does Karanth feel about Wild Shale’s future? A Confident. B. Puzzled. C. Indifferent. D. Worried. 【答案】41. B 42. D 43. D 44. C 45. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。Krithi Karanth通过Wild Shaale项目帮助印度农村儿童重建与野生动物的情感联结，扭转其将动物视为威胁的负面观念，建立积极的人类与野生动物的关系。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Kids see pretty dramatic scenes of conflict in their villages: elephants destroy crops, tigers take domestic animals, and sometimes local people are badly injured by wild animals. “Children develop negative views of wildlife as they grow up,”(孩子们在他们的村庄里看到了非常巨大的冲突场景：大象破坏庄稼，老虎带走家畜，有时当地人被野生动物严重伤害。“孩子们长大后会对野生动物产生负面看法。”)”可知，印度农村的孩子最初会认为野生动物是引起危险的威胁。故选B项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Speaking with fellow explorer Gabby Salazar, Karanth discovered that Salazar possessed exceptional educational expertise (专业知识) and had long sought to apply it meaningfully. Karanth then suggested combining education, art, and games to reconnect rural children with wildlife.(在与探险家Gabby Salazar的交谈中，Karanth发现Salazar拥有非凡的教育专业知识，并且长期以来一直在寻求有意义的应用。Karanth建议将教育、艺术和游戏结合起来，使农村儿童与野生动物重新建立联系)”和第三段中“Karanth’s suggestion immediately drew Salazar. Within six months, the two pooled their strengths and developed the first version of Wild Shaale, an innovative (创新的) program featuring art-based modules, multimedia storytelling, and play-based learning.(Karanth的建议立刻吸引了Salazar。在六个月内，两人汇集了他们的优势，开发了第一个版本的Wild Shaale，这是一个创新的项目，具有基于艺术的模块，多媒体讲故事和基于游戏的学习)”可知，最初是Karanth和Salazar之间启发性的思想交流促成了Wild Shale的计划。故选D项。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中““Apart from these elements, encouraging the students to find similarities between themselves and wildlife also makes a difference,” Karanth notes.(Karanth指出，“除了这些因素，鼓励学生发现自己和野生动物之间的相似之处也会有所不同。”)”可知，项目核心策略之一是鼓励学生寻找自身与野生动物的相似性，这属于情感联结。故选D项。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Today, the program has reached over 700 schools and 30,000 children aged 10 to 13 in villages across 20 wildlife parks in India’s Western Ghats. Besides, another 300 schools are expected to join the program within the next year.(如今，该项目已覆盖印度西高止山脉20个野生动物园村庄的700多所学校和3万名10至13岁的儿童。此外，预计明年还将有300所学校加入该计划)”可知，第4段的数字主要展示了孩子们对Wild Shale的广泛接受。故选C项。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“With Wild Shaale’s success in India, Karanth hopes to expand the program globally.(随着Wild Shaale在印度的成功，Karanth希望将该项目扩展到全球)”可知，Karanth对Wild Shale的未来是自信的。故选A项。 C “Look for the gap” “ Move into space” Sound familiar? From the sidelines to the field, no matter the team sport, looking for relevant information in the playing environment can be as important as any other skill if you want to score. Think Allen Iverson, Scott Pendlebury, or Natalie Medhurst, coolly judging all the options before making important decisions. How do these excellent athletes become so great? As well as their physical strengths, their brainpower is an obvious advantage. Regardless of whether an athlete is playing backyard cricket or Olympic basketball, their playing environment holds important information that must be found, explained and then acted on. Research conducted at Western Sydney University finds skilled players are better at looking for and seeing the options and what’s happening around them in the playing environment. They tend to look both at an opponent (对手) and at where they can move next. Less skilled players, however, might watch only one detail but not what is happening around them. Skilled players are also often faster to make decisions compared to less skilled players; their experiences create more stored memories that help speed up their decision-making. Essentially, skilled players know what information is the most relevant to focus on and they act on it quickly. Adding to this picture is new research that explores the negative impact of mental fatigue (疲劳) on physical performance. This work shows that our ability to exercise can be affected negatively after activities requiring long periods of thinking and mental effort, particularly when these activities are boring. It first considers the impact of using the brain so much that it makes you physically tired. This may be particularly relevant for coaches of young players shifting from the school day to training, especially if the day’s lessons have been complex. Coaches should therefore map out appropriate strategies by considering the amount of information they provide for athletes and the complexity of the tasks and instructions. Overall, cognitive (认知的) skills, like physical qualities, are key to high performance and even play a role in identifying future potential. Cognition could be a reliable marker of ability over time and could provide some basis for prediction of talent. 46. Why are some great athletes mentioned in the text? A. To compare different sports. B. To highlight physical training. C. To stress mental skills in sports. D. To honor their achievements in sports. 47. According to paragraph 2 what advantage do skilled athletes tend to have? A. Faster moving speed. B. Wider focus of attention. C. More efficient teamwork. D. Stronger physical endurance. 48. Successful athletes make decisions quickly by _______. A. referring to previous experience B. ignoring all outside distractions C. learning from opponents’ strategies D. understanding coaches’ instructions 49. What does the author suggest coaches do after their players have had a hard school day? A. Lengthen the warm-up for training. B. Set the training intensity adaptively. C. Prioritize physical over cognitive training. D. Refer to their players’ previous performance. 50. What is the text mainly about? A. The quality of sports talent. B. The overall training in sports. C. The cognitive power in sports. D. The variables affecting sports. 【答案】46. C 47. B 48. A 49. B 50. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了在运动中认知技能对运动员的重要性，如技术娴熟的运动员在认知方面的优势以及认知技能对运动员决策等方面的影响等。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Think Allen Iverson, Scott Pendlebury, or Natalie Medhurst, coolly judging all the options before making important decisions. How do these excellent athletes become so great? As well as their physical strengths, their brainpower is an obvious advantage.( 想想艾伦·艾弗森、斯科特·彭德尔伯里或娜塔莉·梅德赫斯特，在做出重要决定之前，他们会冷静地判断所有的选择。这些优秀的运动员是如何变得如此伟大的？和他们的体力一样，他们的脑力也是一个明显的优势)”可知，文章开篇提到一些著名运动员，然后说他们除了身体优势，脑力也是明显优势。后面围绕运动员的认知技能展开论述，所以提到这些运动员是为了强调在运动中的心智技能（mental skills）。故选C项。 【47题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Research conducted at Western Sydney University finds skilled players are better at looking for and seeing the options and what’s happening around them in the playing environment. They tend to look both at an opponent (对手) and at where they can move next. Less skilled players, however, might watch only one detail but not what is happening around them.( 西悉尼大学进行的一项研究发现，熟练的球员更善于寻找和看到选择，以及在比赛环境中他们周围发生的事情。他们倾向于既看对手，又看下一步该往哪里走。然而，技能较差的运动员可能只关注一个细节，而不关注周围发生的事情)”可知，技术娴熟的运动员能更好地寻找和观察比赛环境中的选择以及周围发生的事情，他们会关注对手和自己下一步可以移动的位置，而技术欠佳的运动员可能只关注一个细节。这说明技术娴熟的运动员注意力的关注范围更广。故选B项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Skilled players are also often faster to make decisions compared to less skilled players; their experiences create more stored memories that help speed up their decision- making.( 与技能较差的运动员相比，技能娴熟的运动员通常也能更快地做出决定；他们的经历创造了更多的记忆，帮助他们加快决策)”可知，与技术欠佳的运动员相比，技术娴熟的运动员决策也更快，他们的经验创造了更多存储的记忆，有助于加快他们的决策速度。也就是说成功的运动员通过参考以前的经验快速做出决策。故选A项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Coaches should therefore map out appropriate strategies by considering the amount of information they provide for athletes and the complexity of the tasks and instructions.( 因此，教练员应考虑他们提供给运动员的信息量以及任务和指示的复杂性，制定出适当的策略)” 可知，在球员经历了辛苦的学校一天后，教练应该通过考虑为运动员提供的信息量以及任务和指令的复杂性来制定合适的策略，也就是适应性地设置训练强度。故选B项。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合根据第一段中“Think Allen Iverson, Scott Pendlebury, or Natalie Medhurst, coolly judging all the options before making important decisions. How do these excellent athletes become so great? As well as their physical strengths, their brainpower is an obvious advantage.( 想想艾伦·艾弗森、斯科特·彭德尔伯里或娜塔莉·梅德赫斯特，在做出重要决定之前，他们会冷静地判断所有的选择。这些优秀的运动员是如何变得如此伟大的？和他们的体力一样，他们的脑力也是一个明显的优势)”和第二段中“Research conducted at Western Sydney University finds skilled players are better at looking for and seeing the options and what’s happening around them in the playing environment. They tend to look both at an opponent (对手) and at where they can move next. Less skilled players, however, might watch only one detail but not what is happening around them.( 西悉尼大学进行的一项研究发现，熟练的球员更善于寻找和看到选择，以及在比赛环境中他们周围发生的事情。他们倾向于既看对手，又看下一步该往哪里走。然而，技能较差的运动员可能只关注一个细节，而不关注周围发生的事情)”可知，文章主要论述了在运动中认知技能（cognitive skills）对运动员的重要性，如技术娴熟的运动员在认知方面的优势以及认知技能对运动员决策等方面的影响等。由此可知，这篇文章的主旨是运动中的认知能力。故选C项。 D There is a paradox (悖论) to being 20 meters under the ocean. It is a place of calm and wonder. I am immersed in a foreign world, with a new watery sky above me. There is a sense of peace as countless colorful fishes swim past. But the peacefulness is deceiving. As a beginner diver, my mind often goes into overdrive. All that stands between me and a painful fate is the tank of oxygen on my back. I must remember complex hand signals, from those that communicate an animal sighting to the essential “I’m out of air” signal. I also need to remember things like my dive time and depth, and the location of my friend. Therefore, the paradox: scuba diving (水肺潜水) is at once liberating and calm, and a challenging comprehension test. Funnily enough, the latter—the learning aspect of it—makes the former more enjoyable. When was the last time you learned a new skill? A truly new pursuit, not just an extension of your day-to-day? With busy lives and careers, the learning slows. It’s rare we try something truly new. Diving awakened me to the joy of learning new skills in adulthood. The activity is both exciting and has just enough danger to focus the mind; it forces you to wrestle with something unfamiliar and immerse yourself in the underwater world. It also forces you offline; there’s no checking emails 30 meters below the surface. With more dives, there is always more to learn. New dive sites also bring their own challenges. I’m lucky to have the time and money to take up new pursuits. Learning to dive isn’t cheap, but it’s worth every cent. One study found that people with hobbies had better health, more happiness and higher life satisfaction. So why not consider trying something new-truly new? There is a magical quality to being a beginner again, learning slowly, occasionally regressing (倒退) and sometimes progressing. And if you can do all that 20 meters under the sea, surrounded by curious turtles and friendly manta rays (蝠鲸), all the better. 51. What does the underlined word “immersed” in Paragraph 1 mean? A. Trapped in a dangerous environment. B. Forced to adapt to underwater pressure. C. Distracted by surrounding creatures. D. completely involved in a new experience. 52. What is the paradox of scuba diving described in the text? A. It is both expensive and dangerous. B. It offers peace but requires strict training. C. It is a test of courage and a waste of time. D. It allows freedom but causes memory loss. 53. Why does the author say the peacefulness of diving is “deceiving”? A. Because beginners must stay focused on safety. B. Because underwater creatures are dangerous. C. Because oxygen tanks often fail unexpectedly. D. Because divers can easily get lost underwater. 54. How has diving influenced the author? A. It has helped the author to get over the fear of the ocean. B. It has improved their email management skills. C. It has caused the pleasure of acquiring unfamiliar abilities. D. It has made the author prefer underwater world to daily life. 55. What is the author’s main purpose in writing this text? A. To warn beginners about the dangers of diving. B. To describe the beauty of underwater world. C. To encourage readers to try new experiences. D. To share tips on passing diving tests. 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. A 54. C 55. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文主要讲述了作者学习潜水的经历，以及对学习新技能的看法，并鼓励人们学习新技能。 【51题详解】 词句猜测题。划线词前文“It is a place of calm and wonder.(这是一个充满平静和奇妙的地方。)”和后文“There is a sense of peace as countless colorful fishes swim past.(无数色彩斑斓的鱼儿游过，有一种宁静的感觉。)”说明作者喜欢在海底潜水这种宁静的感觉，从而推知划线词所在句“I am immersed in a foreign world, with a new watery sky above me.(我immersed在一个陌生的世界里，头顶上是一片新的水汪汪的天空。)”其中划线词应为“沉浸的”的意思，D项“完全投入到一种新的体验中”符合题意。故选D项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Therefore, the paradox: scuba diving (水肺潜水) is at once liberating and calm, and a challenging comprehension test.(因此，悖论是：水肺潜水既是一种解放和平静，也是一种具有挑战性的理解测试。)”可知，文中描述的水肺潜水的悖论是它提供了平静，但需要严格的、具有挑战性的训练。故选B项。 【53题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“As a beginner diver, my mind often goes into overdrive. All that stands between me and a painful fate is the tank of oxygen on my back.(作为一名潜水新手，我的思维常常超速运转。站在我和痛苦的命运之间的是我背上的氧气罐。)”和第三段“I must remember complex hand signals, from those that communicate an animal sighting to the essential “I’m out of air” signal. I also need to remember things like my dive time and depth, and the location of my friend.(我必须记住复杂的手势，从传达动物视觉的手势到基本的“我没气了”信号。我还需要记住我的潜水时间和深度，以及我朋友的位置。)”可知，因为初学者一定要注意安全，所以作者说潜水的平静是“骗人的”。故选A项。 【54题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“Diving awakened me to the joy of learning new skills in adulthood. The activity is both exciting and has just enough danger to focus the mind; it forces you to wrestle with something unfamiliar and immerse yourself in the underwater world.(潜水让我意识到成年后学习新技能的乐趣。这项活动既令人兴奋，又有足够的危险性来集中注意力；它迫使你与不熟悉的东西搏斗，让自己沉浸在水下世界。)”可知，潜水给作者带来了获得不熟悉的能力的乐趣。故选C项。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So why not consider trying something new-truly new? There is a magical quality to being a beginner again, learning slowly, occasionally regressing (倒退) and sometimes progressing.(那么，为什么不考虑尝试一些新的东西呢？重新成为一个初学者有一种神奇的品质，慢慢学习，偶尔倒退，有时进步。)”可知，作者写这篇文章的主要目的是鼓励读者尝试新的体验。故选C项。 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Fatema’s love for volleyball started when she was nine years old in Iran because of encouragement from her uncle. Fatema didn’t have anywhere to play volleyball when she arrived in Australia, so she worked with community leaders to set up after-school matches in the local area. The community volleyball matches continued for three months and allowed Fatema to show her qualities as a skillful team player and leader among her peers. Fatema believes that she needs to play in a professional club. However, as training sessions and matches are often in the evenings, the timing is not convenient for her because she can’t use public transport at that time. The club registration cost is also a problem. Fatema is a thoughtful girl and doesn’t want to put a financial strain on her family, so she continues to look for after-school work to earn money that could help cover the club registration costs and other expenses. While she hasn’t joined a volleyball club yet, Fatema has joined the Dandenong Women’s Sports Hub for volleyball sessions run by the Centre for Multicultural Youth after school. Moslih, the coach, is inspired by her positive attitude towards various challenges since Fatema arrived in Australia. Moslih said,“I have seen Fatema in every volleyball class we’ve had! Fatema has proven to me how determined she is to realize her dream of playing volleyball, and it just makes me want to support her in every way that I can. I have not only seen her progress in her skills, but also her confidence and hard work. She is always the first to show up and the last to leave.” Fatema is a multi-talented young person. She can play the guitar skillfully. She is studying at high school and is aiming to become a police officer in the future. But her current goal is to earn some money through an after-school job to financially support her participation in the volleyball club. 56. Why did Fatema hold volleyball matches with community leaders?(no more than 15 words) ___________________________________________________ 57. What does the underlined word“ strain” in paragraph 2 mean?(1 word) ___________________________________________________ 58. What does Moslih think of Fatema?(no more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________ 59. What is Fatema’s target at present?(no more than 10 words) ___________________________________________________ 60. How does Fatema’s story influence you after reading the passage? Please explain.(no more than 25 words) ___________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Because she could not find a place to play volleyball after arriving in Australia. 或者 Because Fatema didn’t have anywhere to play volleyball when she arrived in Australia 57. Pressure./Stress./Tension. 58. She is a strong-willed/determined, confident and hard-working/diligent girl. 或者She is strong-willed/determined, confident, hard-working//diligent. 59. To find a part-time job to afford volleyball club costs. 或者To work after school to earn volleyball club fees. 60. We learn that when facing difficulties, we should be optimistic and stick to our dreams in all possible ways. 或者 Hard work and dedication can help overcome challenges and achieve our dreams, which inspires me a lot. 或者 Her determination to pursue dreams despite hardships inspires us to never give up. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Fatema 自幼热爱排球，到澳大利亚后因无处打球与社区合办比赛。虽因时间、费用未加入职业俱乐部，但积极参训，教练赞其坚定努力，她现想打工赚钱圆梦的故事。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段中“Fatema didn’t have anywhere to play volleyball when she arrived in Australia, so she worked with community leaders to set up after-school matches in the local area.( Fatema刚到澳大利亚的时候没有地方打排球，所以她和社区领导一起在当地组织了课后比赛。)”可知，Fatema和社区领导举办排球比赛是因为她没有地方打排球。故答案是：Because she could not find a place to play volleyball after arriving in Australia.或者 Because Fatema didn’t have anywhere to play volleyball when she arrived in Australia 【57题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据划线单词句中“Fatema is a thoughtful girl and doesn’t want to put a financial …on her family, so she continues to look for after-school work to earn money that could help cover the club registration costs and other expenses.( Fatema是一个体贴的女孩，她不想给家庭带来经济……，所以她继续寻找课后工作来赚钱，以帮助支付俱乐部的注册费和其他费用。)” 可知，这里说她不想给家庭带来经济方面的“strain”，结合语境，她去做兼职赚钱，可知“strain”是“压力”的意思，即“pressure”。故答案是：Pressure./Stress./Tension. 【58题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第四段中“Fatema has proven to me how determined she is to realize her dream of playing volleyball, and it just makes me want to support her in every way that I can. I have not only seen her progress in her skills, but also her confidence and hard work. She is always the first to show up and the last to leave.”(Fatema向我证明了她实现排球梦想的决心，这让我想要尽我所能支持她。我不仅看到了她在技能上的进步，也看到了她的自信和努力。她总是第一个来，最后一个走。”)”可推知，从这些描述可以看出 Moslih 认为她有决心且努力。故答案是：She is a strong-willed/determined, confident and hard-working/diligent girl.或者She is strong-willed/determined, confident, hard-working/diligent. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解题。根据最后一段中“But her current goal is to earn some money through an after-school job to financially support her participation in the volleyball club.( 但她目前的目标是通过课后工作赚一些钱，以资助她参加排球俱乐部。)”可知，Fatema目前的目标是为参加排球俱乐部赚钱。故答案是：To find a part-time job to afford volleyball club costs.或者To work after school to earn volleyball club fees. 【60题详解】 考查开放性试题。根据文章大意以及题干中的问题“读完这篇文章后，Fatem的故事对你有什么影响？”可知，读完这篇文章后，Fatem对我的影响是：我们知道，在面对困难时，我们应该保持乐观，并想尽一切可能坚守自己的梦想。或者：努力和奉献可以帮助克服挑战，实现我们的梦想，这激励了我很多。或者：她不顾困难追求梦想的决心激励着我们永不放弃。故答案是：We learn that when facing difficulties, we should be optimistic and stick to our dreams in all possible ways.或者Hard work and dedication can help overcome challenges and achieve our dreams, which inspires me a lot. 或者Her determination to pursue dreams despite hardships inspires us to never give up. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61. 假定你是晨光中的学生李津，你们学校上周组织参观了市人工智能实验室（City Artificial Intelligence Lab）。此次参观活动让你收获颇丰，所以你想写一封邮件给你的英国的笔友Mike，分享自己这次经历，内容包括： 1.参观时间与地点； 2.活动内容： ①听专家讲座； ②现场观摩实验操作； ③体验科技产品，如机器人、AI绘画（AI painting） 3.此次经历对你的启发。 注意： (1).词数不少于100； (2)适加入细节，使内容充实，行文连贯； (3)开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Mike, _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Lijin 【答案】Dear Mike, Hope this email finds you well! Last Thursday morning, our school organized all Senior One students to visit the City Artificial Intelligence Lab. We gathered at the school gate at 8 a.m. and arrived at the lab after a 20-minute bus ride. The sunny day added to our excitement for the tech tour. In the lab, we first heard a lecture by Professor Chen, who showed AI robots in heart surgeries. He explained how they make precise moves—smaller than a hair! Next, we watched a self-driving car simulation avoid virtual obstacles. The best part was trying AI painting: I typed “a panda in space,” and the app made a funny image with a spacesuit-wearing panda. Everyone laughed at the cute result. The visit completely shifted my understanding of AI. What struck me most was how AI can turn imagination into reality. It inspired me to learn programming during summer break. Do you think AI will change the way we study in the future? Looking forward to your reply. Yours, Li Jin 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生给英国的笔友Mike写一封邮件，分享自己参观学校上周组织的市人工智能实验室的经历与感受。 【详解】1.词汇积累 集合：gather→get together 到达：arrive→reach/get to 改变：shift→change/transform 现实：reality→fact/actuality 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：Last Thursday morning, our school organized all Senior One students to visit the City Artificial Intelligence Lab. 拓展句：Last Thursday morning, our school organized all the students who were Senior One to visit the City Artificial Intelligence Lab. 【点睛】【高分句型1】In the lab, we first heard a lecture by Professor Chen, who showed AI robots in heart surgeries.
