Four great hotels in America
The Lancaster Hotel
It lies in the big city of Houston. Like many other hotels, it offers tiny touches like free soft drinks, free breakfast and free car service. This historic hotel dates back to the 1920s. Moreover, its room walls are designed with plenty of valuable original contemporary paintings, which makes the hotel unique in Houston.
Stephanie Inn
Lying on Cannon Beach, Stephanie Inn is a great place to stay the night. However, you’d better stay here for two days — one day to walk along the sand and explore the beach and another to enjoy the fantastic shops of downtown Cannon Beach. The moment you walk through the door, you’re treated like family. Be sure to make reservations for dinner.
Salish Lodge and Spa
It lies outside the town of Snoqualmie. You can enjoy free breakfast and car service. The chef in the hotel’s on-site restaurant grows much of its produce on-site and everything else on the delicious menu is sourced as locally as possible. The hotel was once used as a place to stioot the popular television show, Twin Peaks. One of the show’s main actors is Kyle MacLachlan.
The Giacomo
Close to attractions such as the Aquarium of Niagara, the Giacomo is housed in a building built in 1929 and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) for years. The NRHP is the U. S. federal government’s official list of things thought worthy of preservation for their historical significance.
1. What’s special about the Lancaster Hotel?
A. Its long history. B. Its excellent car service.
C. Its artistic decoration. D. Its convenient transport.

Adams Cassinga has had many identities: refugee (难民), journalist, mining consultant And now, defender of wildlife.
As a child, he was fascinated by animals — gorillas living in the forests outside his hometown of Bukavu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) -but his path to conservation was winding. His father, who feared Adams would be taken as a child soldier, sent him to South Africa. In Johannesburg, Adams learnt to survive on the streets while teaching himself English in public libraries. After he was granted official refugee status, he studied journalism and landed his first job working for a local newspaper. While working as an investigative reporter in 2016. Adams was shot three times! Adams changed career paths again, this time to work in the profitable mining industry in South Africa. In this role, he returned years later to the DRC to visit gold mines.
One day, while flying to a gold mine in northeastern Congo, Adams saw the wounds of mining operations on the lush forest landscape. He began to think about the beauty of his country’s wild places and the struggle to protect them. After volunteering as an honorary range (护林人), Adams took his wildlife mission one big step further, founding Conserv Congo in 2020. Conserv Congo fights illegal hunting and trafficking (非法交易) through undercover investigations in pursuit of criminals in the illegal wildlife trade. With a team of volunteers including police officers, politicians and students, Adams steals into trafficking networks and conducts organized traps with the authorities
Adams places great value in winning over the hearts and minds of the police officers he works with. “They need to understand the reason behind what we do. We have to transform them into nature lovers. They can only protect what they know and love,” he says. It also partners with multiple national parks, helping to prevent illegal hunting, training volunteers to patrol the parks with rangers, and buying uniforms and other supplies for rangers. To date, the non-profit has worked on more than 6,000 criminal cases, rescued hundreds of trafficked animals from chimps to parrots, and seized tons of ivory and pangolin scales.

A. Civil war. B. Culture shock.
C. Language barrier. D. Regional discrimination.
5. What motivated Adams to start out on the path of conservation?
A. The beautiful scenery of the forest. B. The deep affection for wild animals.
C. The gold mine in northeastern Congo. D. The forest destruction caused by mining.

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“His father, who feared Adams would be taken as a child soldier, sent him to South Africa. In Johannesburg, Adams learnt to survive on the streets while teaching himself English in public libraries. (他的父亲担心Adams会被抓去当童子军,于是把他送到了南非。在约翰内斯堡,Adams学会了在街头求生,同时还在公共图书馆自学英语。)”可知,Adams到了南非后,在约翰内斯堡,他一边在街头求生,一边在公共图书馆自学英语。由此可知,他到了南非后面临语言障碍,需要学习英语。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“One day, while flying to a gold mine in northeastern Congo, Adams saw the wounds of mining operations on the lush forest landscape. He began to think about the beauty of his country’s wild places and the struggle to protect them.

【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章可知,Adams不断尝试不同的职业,从难民、记者、矿业顾问到野生动物保护者,在每个阶段都积极行动。在做调查记者时面临危险,之后投身矿业,又因看到森林被破坏而积极投身于野生动物保护事业,创立“Conserv Congo”并积极开展各种保护活动,这体现了他很积极。在根据文章第三段“Conserv Congo fights illegal hunting and trafficking (非法交易) through undercover investigations in pursuit of criminals in the illegal wildlife trade. With a team of volunteers including police officers, politicians and students, Adams steals into trafficking networks and conducts organized traps with the authorities(Conserv Congo通过秘密调查打击非法狩猎和非法野生动物交易活动,追捕参与非法野生动物贸易的犯罪分子。Adams带领着一支由警察、政治家和学生等志愿者组成的团队,潜入非法交易网络,并与当局一起精心布置抓捕行动。)”可知,Adams创立组织打击非法狩猎和非法交易,与警察、多个国家公园等合作,处理大量刑事案件,营救被贩卖动物,查获非法物品等,为保护野生动物付出了很多努力,坚持不懈地致力于保护工作,这充分体现了他的坚定投入。故选B。
C
For over 1,800 years, doctors have used silk to sew wounds. Now, biomedical engineers are using it to make different types of medical implants (植入物).
Doctors like silk for a variety of reasons. First, silk is a natural material that will break down in the body over time. So any implanted parts made of silk don’t have to be removed by surgery. Plus, not many people are sensitive to it.
The materials currently used to make silk parts are made of proteins called silk fibroin. They are typically dissolved (溶解) in water until needed. But like all proteins, silk proteins can break down over time. Besides, all that water adds a lot of weight and volume to the silk materials as they’re stored, which makes those materials expensive to ship from place to place.
David Kaplan from Tutts University and his colleagues set out to solve those problems. First, they put the silk proteins into salt. Next, they added water to the mixture. They then added a chemical called liquid nitrogen. Afterward, they put the icy mix into a place where the air pressure was very low. That combination of very low temperature and pressure caused water to disappear. Finally, the researchers turned the freeze-dried material into a powder.
Powdered silk could help make really strong medical implants (such as the tools used to hold a broken bone together), which is a great breakthrough in the medical field. Besides, being biocompatible (生物相容的) is just the icing on the cake. It enables powdered silk to have another possible use: putting drugs into the implants. The implants could slowly release a drug over time. That way, patients might not need to take pills or get painful injections.
Powdered silk is easy to work with, too. It is chemically stable and can last up to two years on the shelf. Plus, it’s lightweight because a lot of the water has been removed. So it doesn’t cost as much to ship the material.
8. Why do doctors like silk?
A. Its long history. B. Its rich variety. C. Its affordable price. D. Its outstanding nature.
9. What function does liquid nitrogen serve in David’s research?
A. To separate salt from the mixture. B. To produce low temperature.
C. To keep the low pressure. D. To make a mixture.
10. What does the underlined part “the icing on the cake” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. A piece of cake. B. Another bonus. C. A coincidence. D. A tendency.
11. What does the text mainly focus on?
A. The benefits of powdered silk.
B. Silk’s wide applications in our life.
C. The process of making medical implants.
D. A unique way of turning silk into medical materials.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了研究人员如何将丝绸转化为粉末状医疗材料,并详细阐述了这种方法的优势及其潜在应用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Doctors like silk for a variety of reasons. First, silk is a natural material that will break down in the body over time. So any implanted parts made of silk don’t have to be removed by surgery. Plus, not many people are sensitive to it.(医生们喜欢丝绸有很多原因。首先,丝绸是一种天然材料,会随着时间的推移在体内分解。因此,任何用丝绸制成的植入部件都不需要通过手术移除。另外,对它过敏的人不多)”可知,医生喜欢丝绸是因为它是一种天然材料,会随时间在体内分解,不需要手术移除,且很多人对其不过敏,这些都是丝绸的优秀特性。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Next, they added water to the mixture. They then added a chemical called liquid nitrogen. Afterward, they put the icy mix into a place where the air pressure was very low. That combination of very low temperature and pressure caused water to disappear.(接下来,他们向混合物中加水。然后,他们加入了一种叫做液氮的化学物质。之后,他们把冰冷的混合物放进一个气压很低的地方。极低的温度和压力的组合使水消失了)”可知,液氮的作用是产生极低的温度,以便与低压结合使水消失。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段“Powdered silk could help make really strong medical implants (such as the tools used to hold a broken bone together), which is a great breakthrough in the medical field. Besides, being biocompatible (生物相容的) is just the icing on the cake. It enables powdered silk to have another possible use: putting drugs into the implants.(粉末状丝绸有助于制造非常坚固的医疗植入物(如用于固定骨折的工具),这是医学领域的一项重大突破。此外,生物相容性只是the icing on the cake。它使粉末状丝绸有另一种可能的用途:将药物放入植入物中)”可知,粉末状丝绸有助于制造坚固的医疗植入物,这是医学上的重大突破,而生物相容性使粉末状丝绸有另一种可能的用途,是额外的优点,即“锦上添花”的事情,由此推知,the icing on the cake意为“额外的优点或好处”。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,结合第一段“For over 1,800 years, doctors have used silk to sew wounds. Now, biomedical engineers are using it to make different types of medical implants (植入物).(1800多年来,医生们一直用丝绸来缝合伤口。现在,生物医学工程师正在用它来制造不同类型的医疗植入物)”以及下文内容可知,本文主要介绍了研究人员如何将丝绸转化为粉末状医疗材料,并详细阐述了这种方法的优势及其潜在应用。故选D项。
D
Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes.
One explanation for confirmation bias is that it is an efficient way to process information. Humans are constantly fed with information and cannot possibly take the time to carefully process each piece. It is adaptive for humans to rely on subconscious, automatic judgements that contribute to the efficiency. Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. Therefore, confirmation bias will encourage them to disregard the information contrary to their belief.
Researches show that confirmation bias is strong and widespread. In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. Only when a researcher directly asked people to generate arguments against their own beliefs were they able to do so. It is not that people are incapable of generating arguments that are contrary to their beliefs, but, rather, people are not motivated to do so.
Confirmation bias also surfaces in interpersonal communication. When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library.
Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact.
12. Why do people show confirmation bias?
A. To help maintain their dignity. B. To prevent shallow judgements.
C. To handle complex information. D. To develop their logical reasoning.
13. What did the studies in Paragraph 3 find?
A. People couldn’t produce arguments against their belief.
B. Information supporting people’s belief often won preference.
C. It took considerable motivation to face controversial issues.
D. People focused on information concerning the opposing side.
14. How does the writer illustrate confirmation bias in communication?
A. By making comparison. B. By giving an example.
C. By introducing a study. D. By defining a concept.
15. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The role of my-side bias in enhancing people’s own beliefs.
B. The effects of information overload on decision-making process.
C. The impact of confirmation bias on interpersonal communication.
D. Understanding of confirmation bias and strategies to overcome it.
【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了确认偏误的理解及其克服策略。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. (人们表现出确认偏误的另一个原因是保护自我价值。人们喜欢对自己有良好的感觉,而发现自己高度认同的信念是错误的会让他们自我感觉糟糕)”可知,人们表现出确认偏误的另一个原因是为了保护他们的自我价值。换句话说,是为了帮助他们保持尊严。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段中“In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. (在研究“我方偏误”的实验中,人们能够生成并记住更多支持自己在一项有争议问题上立场的理由,而不是反对立场的理由)”可知,支持人们信念的信息往往更受欢迎。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第四段中“When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library. (在与人们认为具有某种性格的人互动时,感知者会提出倾向于支持自己信念的偏见性问题。如果玛丽亚认为新室友友好且外向,她可能会问她是否喜欢参加聚会,而不是问她是否经常在图书馆学习)”可知,文中通过举Maria与新室友交往的例子来说明确认偏误在交流中的表现,即作者是运用举例的写作手法。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是由文章第一段“Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes. (确认偏误指的是人们倾向于寻找支持自己现有信念的信息。尽管这通常是潜意识的,但其影响却十分重大。它会使人们的判断和决策过程变得模糊)”和最后一段“Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact. (确认偏误可能导致对某个问题或话题的理解不完整和误解,因为关键信息可能会被忽视或驳回。因此,为了避免这种情况,人们应该多样化信息来源,因为从多个角度获取信息有助于更全面地理解主题,并做出周全的决策。另一种方法是主动挑战偏见,通过质疑假设并依赖证据而非个人意见,这有助于我们有意识地识别信息偏见并最大限度地减少其影响)”可知,文章主要讲述了对确认偏误的理解以及克服它的策略。故选D。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
British libraries are in crisis—again. The UK has lost one in 20 since 2016, with 180 closed in that time, a BBC investigation has revealed. The most disadvantaged areas are around four times more likely to lose a library than the richest. ____16____
As the educational achievement gap between children from the richest and poorest backgrounds has grown post-COVID, the role that libraries can play in improving the ability to read and stimulating a love of reading couldn’t be more vital. ____17____ The Children’s Laureate (荣誉获得者), Frank Cottrell Boyce, stressed their importance for “human contact”. His mother used the library as an escape from their limited Liverpool home. For others, it is a shelter from bullying, as one reader told the Guardian.
____18____ The activities offer desperately needed company to isolated parents, as well as inspirations for children. What’s more, if you don’t have access to the Internet or a printer, if you struggle with English or can’t keep warm in winter, libraries are not simply somewhere to borrow books. ____19____ Above all, homelessness, loneliness, mental health, childcare costs, illiteracy and health education are also some of the challenges that libraries help to deal with as other basic public services have disappeared.
Despite all these benefits, funding for libraries is never a priority, defeated by the more urgent demands of healthcare and schools. ____20____ Campaigners are trying to put emphasis on that message before it is too late. One thing libraries don’t need is more words. They need on-going and considerable funding.
A. What can you do to help to reopen the libraries?
B. But concerns about their long-term future remain.
C. But it is not just books that make them magical places.
D. Meanwhile, funding for libraries has halved since 2010.
E. You can even spend a whole day there without buying a cup of tea.
F. However, properly resourced, they can help relieve the pressures on both.
G. Where else can you find craft workshops, Lego, and author events, all for free?

【解析】
【导语】本文为说明文。文章指出了英国图书馆陷入了困境,接连倒闭了许多家,并且政府投入到图书馆的经费也削减了近一半。文章通过强调图书馆的各种有意义的功能和不可或缺的作用,向公众呼吁用更多的资金来支持图书馆。
【16题详解】
根据前文“British libraries are in crisis—again. The UK has lost one in 20 since 2016, with 180 closed in that time, a BBC investigation has revealed. The most disadvantaged areas are around four times more likely to lose a library than the richest.(英国图书馆再次陷入危机。BBC的一项调查显示,自2016年以来,英国每20家就有一家倒闭,其中180家倒闭。最贫困地区失去图书馆的可能性是最富裕地区的四倍。)” 可知,空前讲述的是图书馆陷入困境的现状,因此D选项“Meanwhile, funding for libraries has halved since 2010. (与此同时,自2010年以来,图书馆的资金减少了一半。)”可知,承接上文内容,继续说明陷入的困境,符合语境,并且与最后一段的最后一句“They need on-going and considerable funding(他们需要持续和大量的资金。)”呼吁公众来资助图书馆相呼应。故选D项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“As the educational achievement gap between children from the richest and poorest backgrounds has grown post-COVID, the role that libraries can play in improving the ability to read and stimulating a love of reading couldn’t be more vital.(新冠肺炎疫情后,随着最富裕和最贫困背景的儿童之间的教育成就差距越来越大,图书馆在提高阅读能力和激发对阅读的热爱方面所能发挥的作用至关重要。)”提到图书馆在提高阅读能力和激发对阅读的热爱方面所能发挥的作用至关重要。以及空后“The Children’s Laureate (荣誉获得者), Frank Cottrell Boyce, stressed their importance for “human contact”.(儿童奖得主弗兰克·科特雷尔·博伊斯强调了它们对“人类接触”的重要性。)”可知,图书馆还有除了阅读识字方面以外的其他功能。此处需要有转折,将话题转至图书馆其他的作用,因此选择C项“But it is not just books that make them magical places.( 但不仅仅是书籍使它们成为神奇的地方。)可知,符合此推断,起到上下文的承上启下作用,上下文语意连贯。故选C项。
【18题详解】
根据下文“The activities offer desperately needed company to isolated parents, as well as inspirations for children.(这些活动为孤立的父母提供了迫切需要的陪伴,也为孩子们提供了灵感。)”提到这些活动的意义。结合G选项“Where else can you find craft workshops, Lego, and author events, all for free?(你还能在哪里找到免费的手工作坊、乐高积木和作家活动?)”可知,和下文内容紧密连接,下文中的The activities指的就是空格处提到的活动,符合语境。故选G项。
【19题详解】
根据前文“What’s more, if you don’t have access to the Internet or a printer, if you struggle with English or can’t keep warm in winter, libraries are not simply somewhere to borrow books.(更重要的是,如果你没有互联网或打印机,如果你努力学习英语或在冬天不能保暖,图书馆不仅仅是借书的地方。)”以及后文的“Above all”开始讲图书馆其他的好处可知,此空还在接着前文的话题在讲述图书馆的优点,因此E选项“You can even spend a whole day there without buying a cup of tea.(你甚至无需花钱点一杯茶,就可以在图书馆待上一整天)”可知,符合此推断,起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选E项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Despite all these benefits, funding for libraries is never a priority, defeated by the more urgent demands of healthcare and schools.(尽管有这些好处,但图书馆的资金从来都不是优先考虑的问题,医疗保健和学校的资金需求更为迫切。)”讲述尽管图书馆有这么多的好处,但由于有医疗保健以及学校等更为紧迫的需求,资助图书馆永远不是优先事项。后文的“that message”的指代对象应该也是资助图书馆,而且在所选择的句子中必然会出现,因此选项F项“However, properly resourced, they can help relieve the pressures on both.(然而,如果可以得到充足的资源支持,图书馆完全有能力缓解这两方面的压力)”可知,起到上下文的承上启下作用,F选项中的“both”也与上文的“healthcare and schools”相呼应。故选F项。

第三节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)
46. There’s nothing ________ (moral) about wanting to earn more money. (所给词的适当形式填空)

50. Recently, two railway workers, known for their lightning-fast typing and ________ (fluent) in English, have impressed the public. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】fluency
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:最近,两名以打字速度极快和英语流利而闻名的铁路工人给公众留下了深刻印象。“and”连接两个并列的成分,“typing”是名词,所以“fluent”也需要变成名词形式fluency,表示“流利;流畅”,在句中作宾语。故填fluency。
51. To avoid knee pain, you can run on soft surfaces to ________ (strength) your leg muscles. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】strengthen

52. The fundamental purpose of Silkroad is ________ (bring) people from across the globe together to play and listen to music. (所给词的适当形式填空)

【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:丝绸之路的根本目的是把来自全球各地的人们聚集在一起演奏和聆听音乐。系动词“is”后面需要一个表语来解释说明主语“purpose”的具体内容,不定式to bring作表语,可用来表示具体的、一次性的行为或目的。故填to bring。

【答案】automatically
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意:年费是每年自动向您的信用卡账户收取的费用。此处应用副词automatically意为“自动地”作状语,修饰后文过去分词charged。故填automatically。

第二节(满分25分)
57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Kevin was pretty bored. His mother was at work, and his father had been away on business. Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed (叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye.
Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police.
Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands.
The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard.
At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed (回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man.
Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150左右;

Paragraph 2: Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them. He explained how he had witnessed the strange man entering their house and how he was arrested. Mr. and Mrs. Green listened attentively, with a mixture of surprise and gratitude on their faces. Mrs. Green hugged Kevin, thanking him for his bravery. Mr. Green, however, looked thoughtful. He asked Kevin to describe the man in detail and then revealed that the man was indeed his younger brother, who had come to retrieve a watch their father had left behind. Kevin's eyes widened in shock.
Kevin and Mr. Green took the watch they had found to the police station. On the way, Mr. Green explained that the watch was a family heirloom, passed down from generation to generation. At the police station, they explained the situation to the officers, who were surprised but understanding. The man, who had been released after his identity was verified, was waiting outside. He smiled weakly at Kevin, who felt a mix of embarrassment and relief. Mr. Green handed over the watch to his brother with a pat on the back, and they all agreed to keep in touch. Kevin learned an important lesson that day: always verify the facts before taking action, but never hesitate to help those in need.

Four great hotels in America
The Lancaster Hotel
It lies in the big city of Houston. Like many other hotels, it offers tiny touches like free soft drinks, free breakfast and free car service. This historic hotel dates back to the 1920s. Moreover, its room walls are designed with plenty of valuable original contemporary paintings, which makes the hotel unique in Houston.
Stephanie Inn
Lying on Cannon Beach, Stephanie Inn is a great place to stay the night. However, you’d better stay here for two days — one day to walk along the sand and explore the beach and another to enjoy the fantastic shops of downtown Cannon Beach. The moment you walk through the door, you’re treated like family. Be sure to make reservations for dinner.
Salish Lodge and Spa
It lies outside the town of Snoqualmie. You can enjoy free breakfast and car service. The chef in the hotel’s on-site restaurant grows much of its produce on-site, and everything else on the delicious menu is sourced as locally as possible. The hotel was once used as a place to stioot the popular television show, Twin Peaks. One of the show’s main actors is Kyle MacLachlan.
The Giacomo
Close to attractions such as the Aquarium of Niagara, the Giacomo is housed in a building built in 1929 and has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP) for years. The NRHP is the U. S. federal government’s official list of things thought worthy of preservation for their historical significance.
1. What’s special about the Lancaster Hotel?
A. Its long history. B. Its excellent car service.
C. Its artistic decoration. D. Its convenient transport.
2. What can we know about Salish Lodge and Spa?
A. Its chefs are first-class. B. It is advertised on TV shows.
C. It wins favor of famous actors. D. Its dishes come from fresh local produce.
3. What does the U. S. federal government probably expect the Giacomo to do?
A. Select a more proper site to rebuild it.
B. Become active in applying for the NRHP.
C. Take measures to make its building well protected.
D. Encourage tourists to visit the Aquarium of Niagara.

Adams Cassinga has had many identities: refugee (难民), journalist, mining consultant And now, defender of wildlife.
As a child, he was fascinated by animals — gorillas living in the forests outside his hometown of Bukavu in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) -but his path to conservation was winding. His father, who feared Adams would be taken as a child soldier, sent him to South Africa. In Johannesburg, Adams learnt to survive on the streets while teaching himself English in public libraries. After he was granted official refugee status, he studied journalism and landed his first job working for a local newspaper. While working as an investigative reporter in 2016. Adams was shot three times! Adams changed career paths again, this time to work in the profitable mining industry in South Africa. In this role, he returned years later to the DRC to visit gold mines.
One day, while flying to a gold mine in northeastern Congo, Adams saw the wounds of mining operations on the lush forest landscape. He began to think about the beauty of his country’s wild places and the struggle to protect them. After volunteering as an honorary range (护林人), Adams took his wildlife mission one big step further, founding Conserv Congo in 2020. Conserv Congo fights illegal hunting and trafficking (非法交易) through undercover investigations in pursuit of criminals in the illegal wildlife trade. With a team of volunteers including police officers, politicians and students, Adams steals into trafficking networks and conducts organized traps with the authorities
Adams places great value in winning over the hearts and minds of the police officers he works with. “They need to understand the reason behind what we do. We have to transform them into nature lovers. They can only protect what they know and love” he says. It also partners with multiple national parks, helping to prevent illegal hunting, training volunteers to patrol the parks with rangers, and buying uniforms and other supplies for rangers. To date, the non-profit has worked on more than 6,000 criminal cases, rescued hundreds of trafficked animals from chimps to parrots, and seized tons of ivory and pangolin scales.
4. What did Adams go through when he arrived in South Africa?
A. Civil war. B. Culture shock.
C. Language barrier. D. Regional discrimination.
5. What motivated Adams to start out on the path of conservation?
A. The beautiful scenery of the forest. B. The deep affection for wild animals.
C. The gold mine in northeastern Congo. D. The forest destruction caused by mining.
6. What is Adams trying to achieve in partnership with the police officers?
A. A uniform rule for national parks. B. A comprehensive supply for rangers.
C. A scientific system of training volunteers. D. A transformation in attitude towards nature.
7. Which words can best describe Adams?
A. Stubborn and reserved. B. Active and committed.
C. Adaptable and humorous. D. Humble and diligent.
C
For over 1,800 years, doctors have used silk to sew wounds. Now, biomedical engineers are using it to make different types of medical implants (植入物).
Doctors like silk for a variety of reasons. First, silk is a natural material that will break down in the body over time. So any implanted parts made of silk don’t have to be removed by surgery. Plus, not many people are sensitive to it.
The materials currently used to make silk parts are made of proteins called silk fibroin. They are typically dissolved (溶解) in water until needed. But like all proteins, silk proteins can break down over time. Besides, all that water adds a lot of weight and volume to the silk materials as they’re stored, which makes those materials expensive to ship from place to place.
David Kaplan from Tutts University and his colleagues set out to solve those problems. First, they put the silk proteins into salt. Next, they added water to the mixture. They then added a chemical called liquid nitrogen. Afterward, they put the icy mix into a place where the air pressure was very low. That combination of very low temperature and pressure caused water to disappear. Finally, the researchers turned the freeze-dried material into a powder.
Powdered silk could help make really strong medical implants (such as the tools used to hold a broken bone together), which is a great breakthrough in the medical field. Besides, being biocompatible (生物相容的) is just the icing on the cake. It enables powdered silk to have another possible use: putting drugs into the implants. The implants could slowly release a drug over time. That way, patients might not need to take pills or get painful injections.
Powdered silk is easy to work with, too. It is chemically stable and can last up to two years on the shelf. Plus, it’s lightweight because a lot of the water has been removed. So it doesn’t cost as much to ship the material.
8. Why do doctors like silk?
A. Its long history. B. Its rich variety. C. Its affordable price. D. Its outstanding nature.
9. What function does liquid nitrogen serve in David’s research?
A. To separate salt from the mixture. B. To produce low temperature.
C. To keep the low pressure. D. To make a mixture.
10. What does the underlined part “the icing on the cake” in paragraph 5 mean?
A. A piece of cake. B. Another bonus. C. A coincidence. D. A tendency.
11. What does the text mainly focus on?
A. The benefits of powdered silk.
B. Silk’s wide applications in our life.
C. The process of making medical implants.
D. A unique way of turning silk into medical materials.
D
Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes.
One explanation for confirmation bias is that it is an efficient way to process information. Humans are constantly fed with information and cannot possibly take the time to carefully process each piece. It is adaptive for humans to rely on subconscious, automatic judgements that contribute to the efficiency. Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. Therefore, confirmation bias will encourage them to disregard the information contrary to their belief.
Researches show that confirmation bias is strong and widespread. In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. Only when a researcher directly asked people to generate arguments against their own beliefs were they able to do so. It is not that people are incapable of generating arguments that are contrary to their beliefs, but, rather, people are not motivated to do so.
Confirmation bias also surfaces in interpersonal communication. When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library.
Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact.
12. Why do people show confirmation bias?
A. To help maintain their dignity. B. To prevent shallow judgements.
C. To handle complex information. D. To develop their logical reasoning.
13. What did the studies in Paragraph 3 find?
A. People couldn’t produce arguments against their belief.
B. Information supporting people’s belief often won preference.
C. It took considerable motivation to face controversial issues.
D. People focused on information concerning the opposing side.
14. How does the writer illustrate confirmation bias in communication?
A. By making comparison. B. By giving an example.
C. By introducing a study. D. By defining a concept.
15. What is the passage mainly about?
A. The role of my-side bias in enhancing people’s own beliefs.
B. The effects of information overload on decision-making process.
C. The impact of confirmation bias on interpersonal communication.
D. Understanding of confirmation bias and strategies to overcome it.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
British libraries are in crisis—again. The UK has lost one in 20 since 2016, with 180 closed in that time, a BBC investigation has revealed. The most disadvantaged areas are around four times more likely to lose a library than the richest. ____16____
As the educational achievement gap between children from the richest and poorest backgrounds has grown post-COVID, the role that libraries can play in improving the ability to read and stimulating a love of reading couldn’t be more vital. ____17____ The Children’s Laureate (荣誉获得者), Frank Cottrell Boyce, stressed their importance for “human contact”. His mother used the library as an escape from their limited Liverpool home. For others, it is a shelter from bullying, as one reader told the Guardian.
____18____ The activities offer desperately needed company to isolated parents, as well as inspirations for children. What’s more, if you don’t have access to the Internet or a printer, if you struggle with English or can’t keep warm in winter, libraries are not simply somewhere to borrow books. ____19____ Above all, homelessness, loneliness, mental health, childcare costs, illiteracy and health education are also some of the challenges that libraries help to deal with as other basic public services have disappeared.
Despite all these benefits, funding for libraries is never a priority, defeated by the more urgent demands of healthcare and schools. ____20____ Campaigners are trying to put emphasis on that message before it is too late. One thing libraries don’t need is more words. They need on-going and considerable funding.
A. What can you do to help to reopen the libraries?
B. But concerns about their long-term future remain.
C. But it is not just books that make them magical places.
D. Meanwhile, funding for libraries has halved since 2010.
E. You can even spend a whole day there without buying a cup of tea.
F. However, properly resourced, they can help relieve the pressures on both.
G. Where else can you find craft workshops, Lego, and author events, all for free?

57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Kevin was pretty bored. His mother was at work, and his father had been away on business. Therefore, he was left in the care of Mrs. Hill, an old lady who lived next door. His parents had raised the 12-year-old to be a good boy. He never got into trouble, though sometimes he wanted to do risky things. Mrs. Hill was asleep. Kevin sighed (叹息) and hoped something exciting would happen. Suddenly, a movement outside caught his eye.
Mrs. Hill’s front window faced Mr. and Mrs. Green’s house across the street. The couple had both gone to work, so it was strange that someone was over there. Kevin stared at the man at their front door. Suddenly, the man jumped through an open window into the house. With his heart in his mouth, Kevin grabbed Mrs. Hill’s home phone and called the police.
Thinking that the man might get away with whatever he wanted before the police arrived, Kevin decided to do something. He rushed out of Mrs. Hill’s house and crossed the street quickly. Grabbing a branch from a cut-down tree, he jumped in through the window. “Stop right there! You must leave right now!” he called out, holding the branch with both hands.
The man froze for a second, but when he saw the skinny boy he breathed a sigh of relief. “Hey, kid, put that down. It was my home. My parents used to live here and my father’s watch was here,” he explained, trying to lift a floorboard.
At that moment, the sounds of a police car echoed (回响) in the air. The man stood up in a panic, then ran through the house toward the window and jumped out. Kevin followed out and told the arriving police officers what had happened. They pursued and arrested the man.
Kevin went back to Mrs. Hill’s house. Somehow he wasn’t sure he had done the right thing. “What if he has told the truth?” he thought to himself. The man’s words sounded pretty convincing.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: When Mr. and Mrs. Green got home, Kevin went to talk to them.
