Ⅰ.阅读理解
(2025·宁德高二检测)While some feel that bookstores are fading away,one Chinese bookstore has found new life by marching into rural areas in China to bring colorful cultural life and higher incomes to local residents.
By absorbing local rural characteristics,the village branches of the Librairie Avantgarde Bookstore(LAB) chain have transformed into important platforms to display local history,culture and folk traditions.Not just bookstores,they are foundations helping to relieve spiritual poverty(贫困) and centers for gathering and displaying rural culture.
To better fit in the lives of local residents,earth village branch has its own characteristics,like the branch in Shaxi,southwest China's Yunnan province.Many of nearly 20,000 books in the store are associated with the history,geography and folk customs of Yunnan and the Bai people.
“Turning in profits is not our only aim.Our bookstore has become a public gathering space for villagers.Not only young people,but many elderly residents come here.They do not buy books,but pass the time by reading or chatting with each other in our store,” Liu Xia,the bookstore owner explained.
She added that this is a cultural atmosphere that bookstores offer the area.Some residents have grown accustomed to turning to the books of the store to find answers to the troubles they face,such as operating a business or controlling tourists from urban areas.The biggest benefit of opening bookstores in villages is that it helps provide a healthy environment for children's growth.“My kids often come to the store.They love reading books here.They gain knowledge and curiosity about outside world,” one villager said.
The arrival of the bookstore means a lot to the village when young residents have been leaving for urban areas in recent years.During the 2020 May Day and National Day holidays,the daily number of tourists traveling to the village reached 5,000,a record high.Visitors were attracted by the bookstore.Surrounding it,several restaurants and holds have opened.

Ⅱ.七选五阅读
Nowadays,in the age of roundtheclock entertainment,it's not easy to be bored.But that's not necessarily a bad thing.1. It could be just what you need to generate your best ideas and increase your efficiency.
First and foremost,boredom makes you more motivated.Being bored encourages you to search out something less boring to do.2. Or if you decide there's nothing worth watching on TV,you might choose to switch it off and make your own entertainment by taking up a new hobby.So the boredom you're feeling now could encourage your motivation and help you come up with some of your best ideas.
3. You may well fall back on daydreaming to remove boredom.Unlike what parents and teachers may have told you,daydreaming is good for you.In fact,if you find it difficult to stop your mind from wandering during boring meetings or tasks,it could be a result of your impressive brain capacity(能力).Similarly,people doodling(胡写乱画) during a boring meeting are better able to recall details of it than those who simply sit and listen.4.
So next time you feel bored from the task in hand—or simply lacking in passion,don't worry.5.
A.It could be harmful to your health.
B.Feeling a bit bored does have its benefits.
C.Without distractions to kill boredom,your thoughts can wander.
D.After all,such feelings will make you more motivated and efficient.
E.Put simply,some people seem better at focusing on more than one thing at a time.
F.For example,feeling bored at work could inspire you to explore a change of career.
G.If you think there's nothing to interest you,you'll start to lose the ability to think creatively.

2.F [解析]根据空前“Being bored encourages you to search out something less boring to do.”以及空后“Or if you decide there's nothing ...by taking up a new hobby.”可知,无聊会让你去找一些不无聊的事情做,后面举例子来证明前面的观点,F项“例如,在工作中感到无聊可能会激励你去探索改变职业”符合语境。故选F。

Ⅲ.应用文写作
目前,网购(online shopping)风靡世界。网购的优点是方便、省时和省钱。有人预测实体商店会被网上商店所取代。请就此观点谈谈你的看法。
注意:
1.写作词数应为80左右;
2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。
[参考范文]
With the growing popularity of online shopping,many people are addicted to it.It's true that online shopping has its advantages,making shopping a convenient and pleasant experience,and saving our time that would otherwise be spent in stores.It is predicted that physical stores will be replaced by online stores.
But in my opinion,it would be another matter.For one thing,we can't afford the time spent searching online for what we need.Meanwhile,it would be unwise if we spend too much time shopping online.We should be devoted to our studies or socialize with people around us.
In a word,while online shopping can be a way for us to accumulate some social experience,we can't play it so far as to affect our studies.

One day after school,Niall checked the refrigerator for some leftovers.He was very hungry after spending the early afternoon playing football with his friends.
He noticed his mom Linda's todo list stuck on the refrigerator door.“Prepare dinner,wash the dishes,mow the lawn(修剪草坪),water the plants,do the laundry,clean the house ...” Niall read the list.He realized his mom would only be able to go to bed at one o'clock in the morning if she wanted to accomplish everything.And she had to wake up at five to prepare breakfast for both of them before school and work.
“Oh,Mom,” Niall sighed.He was sad that his mother had to work hard because she was raising him as a single mother.Without hesitation,he quickly finished his meal and decided to help with the housework on his mom's list in two hours before she came home.
Niall first cleaned the floor and did the laundry.Then he went to his mom's room to put the folded clothes in the closet,where he saw a beautiful card.It was his mother's bucket list.Niall found her top wish was to fly to a white sand beach alone.The boy smiled.He knew how much she loved going to the beach and how much she had devoted to the family.
Inspired,Niall decided to use the money he had saved to buy a plane ticket for his mom.He could ask his grandma to teach him how to book a flight.He imagined how happy his mom would be when he handed her that ticket.
Smiling,Niall quickly placed the clothes inside the closet.There were still many other chores—like mowing the lawn—that needed to be done.
