Hours later, I completed my first short story. Since then, I’ve written many stories, short and long. But also, since then, I’ve read more and noticed just how well people my age could write. Since then, I also felt less and less willing to share my work:what if my writing isn’t as good as everybody else's? What started off as something creative that I could share with friends turned into competition changed by feelings of competence. Oftentimes, hobbies begin as something just for fun. But eventually, what was once fun now contributes to feelings of stress and inadequacy. I have plenty of memories of thinking I was going to pick up something new and stick with it, whether it be playing the piano, or drawing. But there is always a part of me that expects myself to just magically be good at all of those things. And when I’m not, the enjoyment tapers off as, slowly, I think mediocrity(平庸) isn’t acceptable anymore. Writing is the only hobby that I have repeatedly come back to despite dropping it constantly. I can see the growth in my writing all these years, but the expectations to be better and better is never satisfied. This is why I drop writing for months at a time. This feeling of a hobby becoming, for a lack of better word, a chore, lowers the satisfaction of said hobby. But hobbies are there to give you a breath of fresh air from having to excel at everything, from academics to your occupation. We must accept that it is okay to just suck at an activity but still doing it because it brings you joy. There is a balance between joy and expectations, either set by others or by ourselves. 24. What does the author do in the first paragraph? A. He challenges a tradition. B. He relates an experience. C. He envisions a coming trend. D. He compares varied hobbies. 25. Which can best replace the underlined phrase “tapers off” in paragraph 1? A. Thins out. B. Tops out. C. builds up. D. Spreads around. 26. Why does the author drop writing constantly? A. He is inadequate for it. B. He prefers mediocrity. C. He equates joy with achievement. D. He receives bitter comment. 27. What message does the passage convey? A. Mediocrity is the key to enjoyment. B. A hobby shared is a hobby squared. C. Excellence ensures academic success. D. Enjoyment outweighs excellence in hobbies. C The Caspian Sea, the world’s largest inland water body, is declining, according to a new study published in Communications Earth & Environment. The study reports the water sources that typically feed the sea are contributing less and less water. So much so that these sources cannot keep up with evaporation (蒸发). If global temperatures rise by 2°C, the sea’s water levels could drop by 16-32 feet, which means 4 out of 10 ecosystem types unique to the Caspian Sea would disappear completely. The Caspian Sea is home to a variety of life. Six sturgeon (鲟鱼) species live within the sea. In the Caspian Sea, sturgeon typically reside in shallower waters during the summer and fall and lay eggs in the rivers that flow into the sea. A drop in water levels would prevent them from accessing these grounds, which could lead to population decline. The sea is also a hot spot for some seabirds. They usually take shelter in the coastal wetlands, but it’s possible those could dry up as well. The Caspian Sea touches five countries — Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Turkmenistan — and a drop in water levels could seriously impact trade routes vital to the economies of these countries, as low water levels could prevent ships from docking (入港). Besides, the exposed dry seabed is likely to release dust containing industrial pollutants and salt, posing serious threats to human health. A dropping water level could also alter the climate of the region, thus impacting the area’s agriculture. But all hope is not lost. “Some Caspian Sea level decline appears unavoidable,” Simon Goodman from the University of Leeds said in a press release. “However, with the anticipated effects unfolding over a few decades, it should be possible to find ways to protect biodiversity while safeguarding human interests and well being. That might sound like a long timescale, but, given the immense political, legal and practical challenges involved, it is advisable to start action as soon as possible to give the best chance of success.” 28. What is a fundamental driver for the Caspian Sea’s water crisis? A. Reduced inflow of feeder rivers. B. Industrial pollution of coastal plants. C. Increased evaporation of the Caspian Sea. D. Sudden disappearance of the ecosystems. 29. Why are sturgeon populations threatened by the decline of water levels? A. Seabirds compete for their food. B. They lose access to coastal wetlands. C. They can’t reach rivers to reproduce. D. The shallower summer habitats dry up. 30. What could be a likely consequence of the drying process? A. Establishment of trade routes. B. Release of seabed pollutants. C. Expansion of local agriculture. D. Alteration of regional integration. 31. What does Simon Goodman’s suggest to address the problem? A. Local community relocation. B. Resignation to biodiversity loss. C. Emphasis on economic interests. D. Urgent cross-border cooperation. D It’s a problem that has annoyed many horror movie makeup artists: How do you give someone the appearance of having a second head? Seemingly to fake out hunters, many butterflies have found their own solutions to this problem, with complicated patterns and structures on their wings that create what look like second heads on their backsides. Now, in a new study, researchers at the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) dive deeper into the origins of these “false heads”. Previous studies have shown these false heads help confuse hunters: Damage to the back end of a butterfly’s wings near the false head has less impact on vital behaviors such as flying and mating than damage to the butterfly’s real head. Scientists had long theorized that butterflies’ false heads arose because five key traits (特征) — namely false feelers, noticeable coloration, wing patterns that contain special lines, large spots, and head like shapes — evolve (进化) together to redirect predator attention. But no one had traced the evolutionary history of these traits. Evolutionary ecologists at IISER began by analyzing images of nearly 1,000 species of butterflies and marking how many of the false head traits each species exhibited. The researchers then constructed a phylogenetic tree (系统树), which allowed them to visualize how closely related false-headed species were to one another, as well as how each of the traits evolved over time. Computational modeling of this tree revealed that four of the five false head traits all evolved in a correlated manner, while also showing the order in which the traits first appeared within butterflies. The researchers propose that the separate traits integrated into a single, complex false head trait because of a common selective force: attacks from hunters. However, questions remain on the exact advantages that these distinctive defense mechanisms provide to the butterflies that use them. 32. Why is “makeup artist” mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To support a scientific theory. B. To illustrate a filming technique. C. To introduce an evolutionary trick. D. To justify a long-held assumption. 33. What might previous studies focus on? A. The development of the five traits. B. The special behaviors of butterflies. C. The defensive function of false heads. D. The evolution theories of butterflies. 34. What did IISER scientists do in the new study? A. They classified wing patterns of butterflies. B. They reconstructed history of trait evolution. C. They innovated methods of studying butterflies. D. They analyzed the survival benefits of false heads. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. To survive? False a Second Head B. Confused? Phylogenetic Tree Helps C. Do Key traits Enhance Insects’ Survival? D. Does Evolution Reshape Butterflies’ Bodies? 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。 Nowadays, meaningfully connecting with new people is no mean achievement. From the decline of the office to the rise of single-occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us. ____36____ Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human.

Loudly and proudly, they just talk. ____38____ So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs. ____39____ I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.” Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us. ____40____ Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life.

Having swallowed a big mouthful of chicken, I took a deep breath and began, “Could I invite some friends over tomorrow? Just for the afternoon?” My parents exchanged a glance, then nodded readily. But beside me, my younger sister, Lily, froze. Her wide eyes locked onto mine. “But... what about Miracle? She’ll be terrified, Ethan.” Miracle was a cat Lily rescued on a rainy day last winter. True to her name, the cat had survived. Yet, it remained a creature of profound shyness: Loud voices sent her trembling under beds; sudden movements made her jump. She wasn’t just a pet; she was a fragile soul Lily fiercely protected. “I promise, Lily,” I insisted, leaning forward, meeting her worried gaze(凝视). “We’ll stay in the living room. No loud music, no shouting games. I’ll keep the back door shut tight, and I’ll warn everyone to be quiet. Miracle won’t even know they’re here.” I saw the conflict in her eyes — her desire to be supportive warring with her deep concern for the poor cat. After a tense silence, she finally gave a small, reluctant nod. Saturday arrived with sunshine and laughter as my friends piled in. True to my word, I guided them straight to the living room, reminding them firmly about Miracle’s sensitivity.Initially, we chatted, played cards quietly. Glancing around, I spotted Miracle sliding silently down the hallway towards Lily’s room. Good, she’s keeping her distance, I thought, relieved. As the afternoon wore on, however, the initial caution disappeared. A competitive board game led to enthusiastic cheers and laughter. Lost in the sheer fun of being with my friends, I forgot everything - he promise, the fragile creature.

Hours later, I completed my first short story. Since then, I’ve written many stories, short and long. But also, since then, I’ve read more and noticed just how well people my age could write. Since then, I also felt less and less willing to share my work:what if my writing isn’t as good as everybody else's? What started off as something creative that I could share with friends turned into competition changed by feelings of competence. Oftentimes, hobbies begin as something just for fun. But eventually, what was once fun now contributes to feelings of stress and inadequacy. I have plenty of memories of thinking I was going to pick up something new and stick with it, whether it be playing the piano, or drawing. But there is always a part of me that expects myself to just magically be good at all of those things. And when I’m not, the enjoyment tapers off as, slowly, I think mediocrity(平庸) isn’t acceptable anymore. Writing is the only hobby that I have repeatedly come back to despite dropping it constantly. I can see the growth in my writing all these years, but the expectations to be better and better is never satisfied. This is why I drop writing for months at a time. This feeling of a hobby becoming, for a lack of better word, a chore, lowers the satisfaction of said hobby. But hobbies are there to give you a breath of fresh air from having to excel at everything, from academics to your occupation. We must accept that it is okay to just suck at an activity but still doing it because it brings you joy. There is a balance between joy and expectations, either set by others or by ourselves. 24. What does the author do in the first paragraph? A. He challenges a tradition. B. He relates an experience. C. He envisions a coming trend. D. He compares varied hobbies. 25. Which can best replace the underlined phrase “tapers off” in paragraph 1? A. Thins out. B. Tops out. C. builds up. D. Spreads around. 26. Why does the author drop writing constantly? A. He is inadequate for it. B. He prefers mediocrity. C. He equates joy with achievement. D. He receives bitter comment. 27. What message does the passage convey? A. Mediocrity is the key to enjoyment. B. A hobby shared is a hobby squared. C. Excellence ensures academic success. D. Enjoyment outweighs excellence in hobbies. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，作者讲述了自己从五年级开始写作，随着阅读增多，发现同龄人写作水平高，因担心自己写得不好而逐渐不愿分享作品，写作从创意分享变成竞争，还提到其他爱好也因期望过高而带来压力，最后指出爱好应带来快乐，要在快乐和期望间找到平衡。 【24题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“I remember opening my iPad one day in fifth grade after a silly conversation with my cousin about scary story ideas. Hours later, I completed my first short story. Since then, I’ve written many stories, short and long. But also, since then, I’ve read more and noticed just how well people my age could write. Since then, I also felt less and less willing to share my work: what if my writing isn’t as good as everybody else’ s? What started off as something creative that I could share with friends turned into competition changed by feelings of competence.(我记得五年级的一天，在和表弟就恐怖故事创意进行了一次愚蠢的对话后，我打开了iPad。几个小时后，我完成了我的第一个短篇小说。从那以后，我写了很多短篇和长篇故事。但同样，从那以后，我读得更多，也注意到我这个年纪的人写作水平有多高。从那以后，我也越来越不愿意分享我的作品：如果我的写作不如其他人的好呢？原本是一件我可以和朋友分享的创意之事，却变成了因能力感而改变的竞争。)”可知，作者在第一段讲述了一段自己的经历。故选B项。 【25题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“And when I’m not, the enjoyment … as, slowly, I think mediocrity(平庸) isn’t acceptable anymore(当我不是这样的时候，随着慢慢地，我认为平庸不再被接受，这种乐趣就……了)”可知，当作者认为自己做得不好，认为平庸不再被接受时，乐趣就会减少，所以“tapers off”意思是“减少”。故选A项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Writing is the only hobby that I have repeatedly come back to despite dropping it constantly. I can see the growth in my writing all these years, but the expectations to be better and better is never satisfied. This is why I drop writing for months at a time. This feeling of a hobby becoming, for a lack of better word, a chore, lowers the satisfaction of said hobby.(写作是我唯一一个不断放下却又反复捡起的爱好。这些年我能看到自己写作上的进步，但对越来越好的期望从未得到满足。这就是为什么我一次会放下写作好几个月。这种爱好变成了一种家务活的感觉，降低了这种爱好带来的满足感)”可知，这些年作者能看到自己写作上的进步，但对越来越好的期望从未得到满足，这就是为什么作者一次会放下写作好几个月，这种爱好变成了一种家务活的感觉，降低了这种爱好带来的满足感，可推理出作者不断放下写作是因为把快乐等同于成就，当达不到期望时，写作带来的快乐就降低了。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“But hobbies are there to give you a breath of fresh air from having to excel at everything, from academics to your occupation. We must accept that it is okay to just suck at an activity but still doing it because it brings you joy. There is a balance between joy and expectations, either set by others or by ourselves(但爱好是为了让你在从学业到职业的各个方面都出类拔萃之余，能呼吸到新鲜空气。我们必须接受，在一项活动中表现不佳也没关系，只要它给你带来快乐。在快乐和期望之间有一个平衡，无论是别人设定的还是我们自己设定的)”可知，在一项活动中表现不佳也没关系，只要它给你带来快乐，可推理出文章主要传达的是在爱好中，快乐比优秀更重要。故选D项。 C The Caspian Sea, the world’s largest inland water body, is declining, according to a new study published in Communications Earth & Environment. The study reports the water sources that typically feed the sea are contributing less and less water. So much so that these sources cannot keep up with evaporation (蒸发). If global temperatures rise by 2°C, the sea’s water levels could drop by 16-32 feet, which means 4 out of 10 ecosystem types unique to the Caspian Sea would disappear completely. The Caspian Sea is home to a variety of life. Six sturgeon (鲟鱼) species live within the sea. In the Caspian Sea, sturgeon typically reside in shallower waters during the summer and fall and lay eggs in the rivers that flow into the sea. A drop in water levels would prevent them from accessing these grounds, which could lead to population decline. The sea is also a hot spot for some seabirds. They usually take shelter in the coastal wetlands, but it’s possible those could dry up as well. The Caspian Sea touches five countries — Azerbaijan, Iran, Kazakhstan, Russia, and Turkmenistan — and a drop in water levels could seriously impact trade routes vital to the economies of these countries, as low water levels could prevent ships from docking (入港). Besides, the exposed dry seabed is likely to release dust containing industrial pollutants and salt, posing serious threats to human health. A dropping water level could also alter the climate of the region, thus impacting the area’s agriculture. But all hope is not lost. “Some Caspian Sea level decline appears unavoidable,” Simon Goodman from the University of Leeds said in a press release. “However, with the anticipated effects unfolding over a few decades, it should be possible to find ways to protect biodiversity while safeguarding human interests and well being. That might sound like a long timescale, but, given the immense political, legal and practical challenges involved, it is advisable to start action as soon as possible to give the best chance of success.” 28. What is a fundamental driver for the Caspian Sea’s water crisis? A. Reduced inflow of feeder rivers. B. Industrial pollution of coastal plants. C. Increased evaporation of the Caspian Sea. D. Sudden disappearance of the ecosystems. 29. Why are sturgeon populations threatened by the decline of water levels? A. Seabirds compete for their food. B. They lose access to coastal wetlands. C. They can’t reach rivers to reproduce. D. The shallower summer habitats dry up. 30. What could be a likely consequence of the drying process? A. Establishment of trade routes. B. Release of seabed pollutants. C. Expansion of local agriculture. D. Alteration of regional integration. 31. What does Simon Goodman’s suggest to address the problem? A. Local community relocation. B. Resignation to biodiversity loss. C. Emphasis on economic interests. D. Urgent cross-border cooperation. 【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究显示里海因补给水源减少、蒸发失衡水位下降，威胁鲟鱼等生物及沿岸贸易、健康与农业，专家建议尽早跨境行动应对挑战。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The study reports the water sources that typically feed the sea are contributing less and less water. So much so that these sources cannot keep up with evaporation (蒸发). (该研究报告称，通常为海洋提供水源的那些水体，其供水量正在逐渐减少。以至于这些水源已经无法满足蒸发的需求了。)”可知，造成里海水资源危机的根本原因是来源河流的水量减少。故选A。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The Caspian Sea is home to a variety of life. Six sturgeon (鲟鱼) species live within the sea. In the Caspian Sea, sturgeon typically reside in shallower waters during the summer and fall and lay eggs in the rivers that flow into the sea. A drop in water levels would prevent them from accessing these grounds, which could lead to population decline. (里海是众多生物的栖息地。这里有六种鲟鱼种类在里海中繁衍生息。在里海中，鲟鱼通常在夏季和秋季生活在较浅的水域，并在流入海中的河流中产卵。如果水位下降，它们将无法到达这些产卵地，这可能会导致其种群数量减少。)”可知，鲟鱼群体会受到水位下降的影响是因为他们无法到达河流去繁衍后代。故选C。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Besides, the exposed dry seabed is likely to release dust containing industrial pollutants and salt, posing serious threats to human health. (此外，裸露的干燥海床可能会释放出含有工业污染物和盐分的粉尘，对人类健康构成严重威胁。)”可知，干涸过程可能会产生导致海底污染物的释放。故选B。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“That might sound like a long timescale, but, given the immense political, legal and practical challenges involved, it is advisable to start action as soon as possible to give the best chance of success. (这听起来可能是一个很长的时间跨度，但考虑到其中涉及的巨大的政治、法律和实际方面的挑战，尽早采取行动才是明智之举，这样才能最大程度地增加成功的可能性。)”可知，西蒙·古德曼建议紧急开展跨境合作。故选D。 D It’s a problem that has annoyed many horror movie makeup artists: How do you give someone the appearance of having a second head? Seemingly to fake out hunters, many butterflies have found their own solutions to this problem, with complicated patterns and structures on their wings that create what look like second heads on their backsides. Now, in a new study, researchers at the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) dive deeper into the origins of these “false heads”. Previous studies have shown these false heads help confuse hunters: Damage to the back end of a butterfly’s wings near the false head has less impact on vital behaviors such as flying and mating than damage to the butterfly’s real head. Scientists had long theorized that butterflies’ false heads arose because five key traits (特征) — namely false feelers, noticeable coloration, wing patterns that contain special lines, large spots, and head like shapes — evolve (进化) together to redirect predator attention. But no one had traced the evolutionary history of these traits. Evolutionary ecologists at IISER began by analyzing images of nearly 1,000 species of butterflies and marking how many of the false head traits each species exhibited. The researchers then constructed a phylogenetic tree (系统树), which allowed them to visualize how closely related false-headed species were to one another, as well as how each of the traits evolved over time. Computational modeling of this tree revealed that four of the five false head traits all evolved in a correlated manner, while also showing the order in which the traits first appeared within butterflies. The researchers propose that the separate traits integrated into a single, complex false head trait because of a common selective force: attacks from hunters. However, questions remain on the exact advantages that these distinctive defense mechanisms provide to the butterflies that use them. 32. Why is “makeup artist” mentioned in the first paragraph? A. To support a scientific theory. B. To illustrate a filming technique. C. To introduce an evolutionary trick. D. To justify a long-held assumption. 33. What might previous studies focus on? A. The development of the five traits. B. The special behaviors of butterflies. C. The defensive function of false heads. D. The evolution theories of butterflies. 34. What did IISER scientists do in the new study? A. They classified wing patterns of butterflies. B. They reconstructed history of trait evolution. C. They innovated methods of studying butterflies. D. They analyzed the survival benefits of false heads. 35. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. To survive? False a Second Head B. Confused? Phylogenetic Tree Helps C. Do Key traits Enhance Insects’ Survival? D. Does Evolution Reshape Butterflies’ Bodies? 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了蝴蝶进化出假头迷惑捕食者，研究者通过分析蝴蝶物种、构建系统树，追溯假头特征的进化历程，揭示其为生存的进化适应。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s a problem that has annoyed many horror movie makeup artists: How do you give someone the appearance of having a second head? Seemingly to fake out hunters, many butterflies have found their own solutions to this problem, with complicated patterns and structures on their wings that create what look like second heads on their backsides. (这是一个令许多恐怖电影化妆师头疼的问题：如何让一个人看起来像是长着第二个脑袋呢？似乎是为了骗过捕食者，许多蝴蝶找到了应对这一问题的自身解决方案。它们的翅膀上有着复杂的图案和结构，从而在它们的背部形成了看起来像第二个脑袋的形状。)”可知，在第一段中提到了“化妆师”这个概念是为了介绍一种进化上的技巧。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Previous studies have shown these false heads help confuse hunters: Damage to the back end of a butterfly’s wings near the false head has less impact on vital behaviors such as flying and mating than damage to the butterfly’s real head. (此前的研究表明，这些假头会干扰猎食者：蝴蝶翅膀后端（靠近假头的部分）受到损伤对诸如飞行和交配等关键行为的影响要小于蝴蝶真实头部所受的损伤。)”可知，以往的研究会关注假头的防御功能。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Evolutionary ecologists at IISER began by analyzing images of nearly 1,000 species of butterflies and marking how many of the false head traits each species exhibited. The researchers then constructed a phylogenetic tree (系统树), which allowed them to visualize how closely related false-headed species were to one another, as well as how each of the traits evolved over time. (印度科学研究院的进化生态学家们首先对近1000种蝴蝶的图片进行了分析，并记录了每种蝴蝶表现出的假头部特征的数量。随后，他们构建了一个系统树，借此能够直观地看出假头部特征的蝴蝶种类之间的亲缘关系有多紧密，以及这些特征是如何随时间演变而形成的。)”可知，印度科学研究院的研究人员在此次研究中重建了特征演变的历史。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Seemingly to fake out hunters, many butterflies have found their own solutions to this problem, with complicated patterns and structures on their wings that create what look like second heads on their backsides. Now, in a new study, researchers at the Indian Institutes of Science Education and Research (IISER) dive deeper into the origins of these “false heads”. (似乎是为了骗过捕食者，许多蝴蝶找到了应对这一问题的自身解决方案。它们的翅膀上有着复杂的图案和结构，从而在它们的背部形成了看起来像第二个脑袋的形状。如今，在一项新的研究中，印度科学研究院（IISER）的研究人员进一步探究了这些“假脑袋”的起源。)”以及文章主要说明了蝴蝶进化出假头迷惑捕食者，研究者通过分析蝴蝶物种、构建系统树，追溯假头特征的进化历程，揭示其为生存的进化适应。可知，A选项“为了生存？伪造第二头”最符合文章标题。故选A。 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。 Nowadays, meaningfully connecting with new people is no mean achievement. From the decline of the office to the rise of single-occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us. ____36____ Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human. It wasn’t always like this. ____37____ You’ll see cafes and nightclubs and buses and trains filled with life and conversation. People talk to one another. Loudly and proudly, they just talk. ____38____ So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs. ____39____ I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.” Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us. ____40____ Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life. A. Look at photos of city life in the 90s or 00s. B. My first interaction experiment didn’t go so well. C. Online platforms offer new ways to bond more closely. D. What better way to make social connections than this? E. My first attempt with the baker worked out as planned. F. Then, conversations with strangers become a regular occurrence. G. Meanwhile, streaming services and food-delivery apps discourage us from going out. 【答案】36. G 37. A 38. D 39. B 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了作者在现代社会中尝试与陌生人建立联系的经历。文章通过对比过去和现在的社交环境，描述了作者如何主动打破僵局、开启对话，并最终在生活中融入更多温暖的人际互动。 【36题详解】 根据上文“From the decline of the office to the rise of single - occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us.(从办公室的减少到单人公寓的兴起，我们的社交生活正被剥夺)”以及下文“Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human.(它们的广告宣扬待在家里、不与他人见面或交谈的安全性和便利性)”可知，上文提到了我们的社交生活正被剥夺，下文提到了广告宣扬待在家里、不与他人见面或交谈的安全性和便利性，可推理出空白处应提及另一个导致人们减少社交、不愿外出的因素，G项“Meanwhile, streaming services and food-delivery apps discourage us from going out.(与此同时，流媒体服务和外卖应用阻止我们外出)”符合语境，故填G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“It wasn’t always like this.(事情并不总是这样的)”以及下文“You’ll see cafes and nightclubs and buses and trains filled with life and conversation.(你会看到咖啡馆、夜总会、公交车和火车上充满了生机和交谈)”可知，下文提到了咖啡馆、夜总会、公交车和火车上充满了生机和交谈，可推理出此处是要展现过去不同的社交场景，A项“Look at photos of city life in the 90s or 00s.(看看 90 年代或 00 年代的城市生活照片)”能够引出下文描述的过去的热闹景象，符合逻辑。故填A项。 【38题详解】 根据上文“People talk to one another. Loudly and proudly, they just talk.(人们彼此交谈。他们大声而自豪地交谈着)”以及下文“So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs (于是，我便试着与遇到的每个人打交道，从邻居、店主到咖啡馆和酒吧里的服务人员以及成群的陌生人)”可知，上文提到了人们彼此交谈，下文提到了我便试着与遇到的每个人打交道，可推理出作者受过去人们轻松交谈的启发，想要尝试这种社交方式，D项“What better way to make social connections than this?(还有什么比这更好的建立社交联系的方式呢？)”既肯定了过去那种交谈方式在社交上的作用，也自然引出了下文作者的尝试，符合语境。故填D项。 【39题详解】 根据下文“I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.”(我记得当时被盖尔烘焙坊播放的背景音乐所吸引，便走了过去。我朝上指了指，问道：‘这首歌单是你们选的吗？’对方点了点头。‘太好了，很喜欢！’他淡淡地笑了笑，礼貌地点了下头算是道别——而人人都明白这意思其实是：‘请立刻离开！’)”可知，这次互动并不顺利，B项“My first interaction experiment didn’t go so well.(我的第一次互动实验进展不太顺利)”能够概括这段经历，引出下文具体内容。故填B项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us (然而，我的坚持终于得到了回报，我的邻居格雷厄姆终于打破了僵局。有一天，当他在家门口抽烟时，我们聊了起来。我提到自己是个作家，他停顿了一下，深深地吸了一口烟，说：‘语言之于心灵，犹如运动之于身体。’这句深刻的见解立刻在我们之间开辟了一条通道)”可知，此处描述了作者与邻居格雷厄姆成功交流的经历，结合下文“Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life.(这些出于有意识的联系而产生的相遇，逐渐为我的日常生活编织出了温暖和熟悉)”可知，此处表示作者与他人的交流逐渐变得频繁，可推理出此处说的是与Graham的交流打开了局面后，与陌生人的交流变得常态化了，F项“Then, conversations with strangers become a regular occurrence.(然后，与陌生人的交谈变成了常事)”符合语境，承接上文并引出下文对这些相遇的总结。故填F项。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A couple of my friends were entering a writing contest.

Furthermore, around 103,000 square meters of highly polluting buildings have been removed(据估计有196.4公顷的现有绿地得到了恢复，增加了生物多样性和碳汇。此外，约103,000平方米的高污染建筑已被拆除)”可知，此处指的是上文提到的许多行动，所以空白处应填名词复数形式，且根据谓语动词help未使用单数第三人称可知，主语应为复数形式。故填actions。 【64题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：同上。分析句子结构可知，空处与business friendly and attractive并列作宾语补足语，应用形容词形式，且根据上文“help to increase Wuhan’s flood resilience(适应能力) and effectively return the rivers, riverbanks and riverscape to the people(有助于提高武汉的防洪能力，有效地将河流、河岸和河景归还给人民)”可知，此处把改造后的城市与之前进行比较，表示城市“更宜居的”，应用比较级形式more livable。故填more livable。 【65题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：武汉市长表示，武汉将尽一切所能加快长江经济带试验区建设，探索绿色生态发展之路。空处引导定语从句，修饰先行词all，先行词在从句中作主语，当先行词为all时，关系代词用that引导定语从句。故填that。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 假定你是李华。外教Kathy将开设一门兴趣课程，并就课程内容提出“English Poetry”和“Travel Around Britain”两种可能供大家选择。请给Kathy写一封邮件，内容包括： 1.你的选择； 2.说明理由； 注意： 1.写作词数应为80左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Kathy, Thank you for creating a new elective. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Kathy, Thank you for creating a new elective.

Having swallowed a big mouthful of chicken, I took a deep breath and began, “Could I invite some friends over tomorrow? Just for the afternoon?” My parents exchanged a glance, then nodded readily. But beside me, my younger sister, Lily, froze. Her wide eyes locked onto mine. “But... what about Miracle? She’ll be terrified, Ethan.” Miracle was a cat Lily rescued on a rainy day last winter. True to her name, the cat had survived. Yet, it remained a creature of profound shyness: Loud voices sent her trembling under beds; sudden movements made her jump. She wasn’t just a pet; she was a fragile soul Lily fiercely protected. “I promise, Lily,” I insisted, leaning forward, meeting her worried gaze(凝视). “We’ll stay in the living room. No loud music, no shouting games. I’ll keep the back door shut tight, and I’ll warn everyone to be quiet. Miracle won’t even know they’re here.” I saw the conflict in her eyes — her desire to be supportive warring with her deep concern for the poor cat. After a tense silence, she finally gave a small, reluctant nod. Saturday arrived with sunshine and laughter as my friends piled in. True to my word, I guided them straight to the living room, reminding them firmly about Miracle’s sensitivity.Initially, we chatted, played cards quietly. Glancing around, I spotted Miracle sliding silently down the hallway towards Lily’s room. Good, she’s keeping her distance, I thought, relieved. As the afternoon wore on, however, the initial caution disappeared. A competitive board game led to enthusiastic cheers and laughter. Lost in the sheer fun of being with my friends, I forgot everything - he promise, the fragile creature. After friends departed with cheerful goodbyes, I began tidying empty glasses, still lost in the happy scenes when Lily burst through the front door into her room. Then came her scream, “Ethan, Miracle is gone.” 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。 A cold wave of fear rushed through me. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Luckily, we finally found Miracle in the backyard. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 A cold wave of fear rushed through me. I remembered opening the backdoor for some air. Miracle must have got scared out of the house then. My sister looked at me in disbelief. Tears welled in her eyes, spilling over. “You promised” The words weren’t shouted, but they cut deep. Shame burned my face. Without a word, I grabbed a flashlight and raced into the backyard, Lily closely behind, her calls for Miracle now desperate and choked with tears. We searched like crazy. Luckily, we finally found Miracle in the backyard. There hidden under the thick bushes was Miracle. I dropped to my knees and scooped it up gently and placed it into Lily’s waiting hands. Once we went back home, I apologized sincerely, “I am so, so sorry.” I slowly reached out towards Lily, placing my hand gently over hers. “Can you forgive me?” Lily looked down at Miracle, then back at me, her eyes still wet but softening slightly. A fragile bridge of forgiveness began to form. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“我”邀请朋友到家做客引发的猫咪走失事件为线索展开，讲述了“我”因疏忽忘记对妹妹的承诺，导致妹妹救助的胆小猫咪Miracle走失，最终与妹妹一同找回猫咪并尝试弥补的过程。 【详解】段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“一股寒意般的恐惧席卷了我。”可知，第一段可描写“我”意识到自己疏忽导致Miracle走失后的懊悔，以及妹妹的反应，随后两人一同外出寻找猫咪的情景。 ②由第二段首句内容“幸运的是，我们最终在后院找到了Miracle。”可知，第二段可描写找到Miracle时的场景，“我”向妹妹道歉以及妹妹态度的变化，体现兄妹间的和解与情感流动。 续写线索：恐惧醒悟 —— 妹妹质问 —— 心生愧疚 —— 外出寻找 —— 找到猫咪 —— 真诚道歉 —— 妹妹态度缓和 词汇激活 行为类 ①看：look at/ fix one’s eyes on ②冲向：race to/dash to ③道歉：apologize/say sorry 情绪类 ①难以置信的：be in disbelief /gape in astonishment ②绝望的：desperate/hopeless 【点睛】[高分句型1]. I remembered opening the backdoor for some air.（使用了动名词短语作宾语） [高分句型2]. Lily looked down at Miracle, then back at me, her eyes still wet but softening slightly.（使用了“名词/代词+形容词”的独立主格结构） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
