When IT comes into the car park, IT takes an hour to change IT into a comfortable, air conditioned AC cinema. It's amazing. I really admire the screen machines driver. Of course, he shows the movies, and there is always another person selling tickets. The salt in the sea air isn't good for the trucks, motors, so they also need a mechanic. Ticket Prices are very reasonable, so as soon as the screen machine arrives, the ticket office phone starts ringing. We can now also book in advance on the screen machine website, which makes IT even more convenient, and that's the way most people choose. No, it's an amazing service.

She had zero coding (编码) knowledge, no marketing experience, and no funding. What she did have, however, was dissatisfaction with just how much good food winds up in the rubbish — about 30 percent of global production. Food waste happens all along the supply chain, but another thing Basch did not have was specialized expertise in agriculture or mass production. So she focused on what she knew — the bakeries, restaurants, and grocery stores typically threw out their items left over at the end of the day. If someone could connect that supply with needy eaters, the food could instead be sold at a sharp discount. The result would be a three-way win, with businesses earning bonus income, consumers getting exceptionally cheap meals, and food being redirected from landfills. Basch, living in Norway at the time, hit the streets with flyers and sign-up sheets, persuading business owners to adopt an app that did not yet exist. “I made them the promise that it’s going to be as simple as throwing food away, but instead of putting it into a big garbage bag, you’re going to divide it into different bags,” Basch explained in her office in Paris. Before long, she linked up with a group of like-minded Danish professionals with the coding knowledge to make the app she had been promoting a reality, which was named “Too Good to Go”. Today, Too Good to Go is the world’s largest marketplace for leftover food, operating in 19 countries with more than a hundred million registered users. It is also a certified eco-friendly company. 24. Why did Lucie Basch make up her mind to develop the app? A. To launch a promising career. B. To establish a food supply chain. C. To address a severe food issue. D. To pick up some coding knowledge. 25. What did Basch plan to do? A. Recycle food waste from landfills. B. Give business owners bonus income. C. Make remains available to the needy. D. Convince stores to offer a big discount. 26. How did Basch influence business owners? A. By persuading them to use flyers. B. By promising them financial benefits. C. By asking them to put wasted food into a bag. D. By requesting them to sort and bag the left food. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Learning to build an app? Consult Coding Experts B. Wanting Discounted Foods? Shop at the End of Day C. Aiming to Dominate Market? Follow Basch’s Success D. Emptying Your Leftover Food? Turn to Too Good to Go 【答案】24. C 25. C 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了露西・巴施开发一款名为“Too Good to Go”的应用程序减少食物浪费，如今该应用已成为全球最大的剩余食物交易平台。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段最后一句“What she did have, however, was dissatisfaction with just how much good food winds up in the rubbish — about 30 percent of global production. (然而，她所不满的是，竟然有如此多的优质食物最终被扔进了垃圾桶——约占全球产量的30%。)”可知，露西・巴施决心开发这款应用程序是因为她对大量食物被浪费感到不满，即想要解决严重的食物浪费问题。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段后两句“If someone could connect that supply with needy eaters, the food could instead be sold at a sharp discount. The result would be a three-way win, with businesses earning bonus income, consumers getting exceptionally cheap meals, and food being redirected from landfills. (如果有人能将这些食品供应与有需求的食客联系起来，那么这些食品就可以大幅降价出售。结果将是三方共赢，企业获得额外收入，消费者能买到极其便宜的食物，同时食品也不会被送去填埋。)”可知，巴施计划将商家剩余的食物提供给有需求的人。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。细节理解题。根据第三段第二句““I made them the promise that it’s going to be as simple as throwing food away, but instead of putting it into a big garbage bag, you’re going to divide it into different bags,” Basch explained in her office in Paris.(“我向他们承诺，这将和扔掉食物一样简单，但不是把食物放进一个大垃圾袋里，而是要把它分成不同的袋子，”Basch在她位于巴黎的办公室解释道。)”可知，Basch通过要求企业主对剩余食物进行分类装袋来影响他们。故选D项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。纵览全文可知，本文主要讲述了露西・巴施开发“Too Good to Go”应用程序来减少食物浪费，将剩余食物与有需求的人联系起来，D选项“Emptying Your Leftover Food? Turn to Too Good to Go (处理剩余食物？求助于“TooGoodtoGo”)”既体现了应用程序的功能，又契合文章主题，适合用作标题。故选D项。 C As I signed the pre-medical application form, my fingers shook uncontrollably. The watercolor brushes on my desk seemed to gaze back at me, like old friends who had been left behind. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted (萦绕) me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads (便笺本). Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 28. What did Lora’s mother believe about art from paragraph 1？ A. Art is a good way to express feelings. B. Art is not practical for making a living. C. Art can help with medical studies. D. Art is more important than science. 29. Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skill” as ________. A. a plus B. a recreation C. a distraction D. a burden 30. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It directed her toward doctor training. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 31. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Lora在艺术和医学学习之间感到纠结，后来在学校职业招聘会、医院志愿者活动等经历的影响下，发现自己的艺术技能在医疗领域有独特的作用，从而将两者结合起来的故事。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。由第一段““Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. (“艺术滋养灵魂，但饿死身体，”妈妈总是说。)”可知，Lora的母亲认为学艺术不能温饱，即艺术不是谋生的实用工具。故选B项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。由第二段“Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed (哈佛大学的Eleanor Whitman博士要求我们列出我们的“隐藏技能”。当我写下“观察细节”时，我的手在颤抖，这是我从画花瓣中学到的。“这是医学研究最需要的技能！”她大声说)” 可知，Dr. Eleanor认为Lora的“隐藏技能（观察细节）”是医学研究最需要的技能，可得出她认为Lora的隐藏技能是加分项（a plus）。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。由第三段“Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. (看着手术，我注意到了一些东西——医生们稳定的手让我想起了我的笔触。当一个男孩努力描述他的痛苦时，我在他的石膏上画了一条喷火龙。护士说：“你让医学有了声音”。)”护士的评价和“Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. (慢慢地，我的画板上充满了看起来像彩色玻璃艺术的细胞，X射线排列得像抽象画。)”Lora将医学图像与艺术结合的描述可推知，Lora在医院的经历让她确信艺术在医疗保健中有作用。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。由最后一段“Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. (如今，我的显微镜和画笔共用一张桌子。曾经在它们之间犹豫不决的手，现在为疫苗教育制作病毒的 3D 模型。有时我教年轻的病人画出他们的感受，而不是描述它们。我的故事不是关于内心和现实相互抵消——它们只是增加了可能性。)”可知，文章主要传达了拥有两种技能（艺术和医学知识）可以照亮人生道路，带来更多可能性的信息，所以文章传达了“双管齐下，照亮道路”。故选D项。 D Everything about nuclear energy seems terrifically big: the cost, construction and decommissioning — and the fears of something going badly wrong. The future, however may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk. These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional reactor. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs) — most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s — are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind. “The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK. Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates. The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence. However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point — which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s. A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ￡56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies. 32. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)? A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactors B. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risks C. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yet D. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs 33. In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to ________. A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern. B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed. D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology 34. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plants. B. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy. C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been deserted. D. a kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors. 35. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage? A Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights on B. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactors C. Nuclear’s share of power generation remain stead D. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to success 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了核能领域正转向小型模块化反应堆以降低成本和风险。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs) — most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s — are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind.(支持者们认为，如果原子能想要与成本迅速下降的太阳能和风能相竞争，这些先进模块化反应堆至关重要——其中大多数要到21世纪30年代才能实现商业化)”可知，目前大多数AMRs还没有投入使用。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates.(所有这些项目都涉及法国电力公司的欧洲加压反应堆技术，该技术也将在欣克利角使用。所有这些项目都比原计划晚了数年，且超出了预算。在美国，过去30年里正在进行的头两个核能项目也超出了成本估算)”可推知，作者提到西欧和美国的核电站，是为了说明核电站的建设成本超出了预算。故选B。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic.(自2011年日本福岛核事故以来，对核能安全性的担忧就一直威胁着核能的发展。然而，如今面临的最大障碍却是经济问题)”以及第六段“The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence.(英国于1956年建成了世界上第一座商用核反应堆，是少数几个致力于更新其老旧核反应堆以确保能源安全并达成严格碳减排目标的西方国家之一。在业内许多人看来，英国被视为检验核能恢复信心能力的试验场)”可推知，一些人对核电站的发展失去了信心。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“The future, however may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk.(然而，未来的核能设施规模可能会小得多。数十家公司正在研发新一代反应堆，他们承诺，这些反应堆能够以更低的成本和更低的风险提供核能)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了核能领域正通过发展小型模块化反应堆来降低成本和风险，以寻求新的成功之路。由此可知，D选项“核能寻求以“缩小规模”之路走向成功”最适合作为文章标题。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. ____36____ Therefore, we can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. ____37____ That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. However, an Israeli start-up based in Ramat Gan is aiming to change this with a system that allows trees to grow in urban areas. TreeTube, founded in 2019, has developed a unique patented system that supports tree growth. This takes into account the needs of utility companies as well as trees. “You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. “____38____” Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. ____39____ This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground. The tubes can be placed in any place where the pavement has been removed for repairs or upgrades. ____40____ More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. A. Sadly, the trees are disappearing. B. There also needs to be a place for trees. C. Planting more trees can slow down global warming. D. Some cities don’t need to build underground utilities. E. That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system. F. Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees. G. In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning. 【答案】36. G 37. A 38. B 39. E 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍城市中树木的重要作用、现存问题及以色列初创公司TreeTube研发的树木根系生长系统。 【36题详解】 上文提到“Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. (树木在城市地区发挥着重要作用，它们提供荫凉，有助于净化空气。)”可知，此处列举树木的已知功能，结合下文“Therefore ,was can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. (所以我们可以说有树的城市更适合居住。)”可知，空处与下文为因果关系，由此可知，空处应该承接上文继续说明在城市种树的好处，G选项“In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning.(事实上，树木可以帮助城市降温并减少对空调的需求。)”中的“cool a city”对应“providing shade”，“reduce air-conditioning”延伸了节能效益，与上文共同论证“城市有树更宜居”的结论。故选G项。 【37题详解】 根据上文的“Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. (许多城市缺乏足够绿化，现有树木与地下公用设施和铺装街道争夺空间。)”可知，描述城市树木生存困境，结合下文“That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. (这是因为建筑项目需要紧密压实土壤，这样就不会给树根生长的机会。)”可知，空处与后一句存在因果关系，后一句表示原因，空处为不会给树根生长的机会造成的结果，树根不生长，那树木就会死去、消失，A选项“Sadly, the trees are disappearing.(可悲的是，树木正在消失。)”中的“disappearing”概括了“缺乏空间” 导致的结果，“Sadly”强化了负面趋势，引出下文对原因的分析。故选A项。 【38题详解】 根据上文““You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. (TreeTube联合创始人乔纳森・安特比说：“你需要为电力、燃气、水等设施留出空间。”)”可知，强调公用设施的空间需求，空格处需转折引出树木的空间需求，B选项“There also needs to be a place for trees.(也需要为树木留出空间。)” 中的“also”承接“utility space”，“a place for trees”呼应段落核心“树木与公用设施争夺空间”的矛盾，体现TreeTube系统平衡两者需求的设计初衷。故选B项。 【39题详解】 根据上文的“Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. (城市树木常常为了给根系生长腾出空间而破坏人造环境。因此，超过30%的城市树木会在三到五年内停止生长，许多树木则会在十年内死亡。)”可知，说明现有问题的严重性，结合下文“This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground.(这种TreeTube系统允许树木根系在地下稳固生长。)”可知，空格处需引出解决方案的必要性。E选项 “That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system.(这就是该初创公司开发根系结构系统的原因。)”中的“That’s why”总结上文问题，“root structure system”直接指向TreeTube系统，衔接问题与解决方案。故选E项。 【40题详解】 此处为本段的主题句，根据下文的“More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. (多亏了TreeTube系统，目前已有1000多棵新树被种植并茁壮成长。这种保护管已在以色列、荷兰和爱沙尼亚投入使用。TreeTube能够通过一棵又一棵树的力量，在应对全球变暖方面发挥重要作用。)”可知，描述TreeTube系统的应用效果和便利性。F选项“Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees.(一旦管道安装到位，植树就变得简单高效。)”讲述的内容对本段内容进行总结，与下文内容吻合。故选F项。 第三部分语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、 C和D中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Setting off on a solo trip, I soon realized I was never really alone.

Laura had dreamed of earning glory for the Falcons ever since she had witnessed her older brother scoring the winning goal. On the day she joined the team, she felt like she could fly. Unfortunately, her joy did not last long. She spent most of the matches on the bench. Walking to the car after the last game, Laura’s mother asked if she was feeling fine. Laura kept quiet and tried to smile at her mother. Having spent yet another game as a reserve, Laura had not even broken a sweat. Laura also joked that she would have baked in the hot sun if she had played. Her mother assured her that she would have another chance to play. She also cheered Laura on. Laura could only shake her head as she climbed into the seat, back hunched and face down. A few days later, Laura’s mother found she sprawled on the couch, watching music videos on her phone, so she tried asking Laura to watch soccer videos instead. Laura looked at her mother blankly, rolling her eyes. “They won’t help me and I can’t get better by myself,” Laura said. Sighing, her mother sank down on the couch. “Laura, for every lock, there is a key. We just have to find it. What if I film you practicing to help you find ways to improve?” “But the season’s over, Mum. No more practice, remember?” Laura said. Her mother looked at her resolutely and insisted that the best players keep practicing even when the season is over. Laura protested, “But to practice plays, I would need at least one other person to join me! It is difficult to do that alone.” Laura’s mother patted her and said, “We’ll find that key too, but we have to start somewhere.” While Laura’s mother was searching her wallet for her gold key, she smiled gently at Laura. She gave Laura an assuring no d before passing her the key. “This key is a reminder for you to be strong and not give up. Let’s build something tomorrow.” Laura’s mother said. 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。 The next day, Laura and her mother built a goal and made a training plan. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then came the next season. On the field, one of the best players got hurt suddenly. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next day, Laura and her mother built a goal and made a training plan. Every night before dinner, they headed to an old car garage for one hour, where Laura practised moving the ball by dodging around old tyres, pretending she was protecting the ball from the best players in the world. Her mother recorded everything secretly. When Laura’s mother showed her the videos, she saw her mistakes carefully and corrected them. Days into weeks, Laura’s leg muscles strengthened through practices and her skills improved a lot. More encouragingly, their practice attracted many children to join. Then came the next season. On the field, one of the best players got hurt suddenly. Laura was sitting at her usual place, at the end of the bench when the coach came over and told her to go in. Laura was nervous, excited and terrified all at the same time. Stepping onto the court, she thought of the gold key that her mother had given — a reminder to be strong and not give up, which gave her courage and confidence. Instead of being afraid, she was “pumped” and quickly found that all her extra work was paying off. Won! Laura’s team won! 【解析】 【导语】本文以故事情节发展为线索。讲述了女孩Laura进入自己梦想的足球队后，一直作为替补队员参加比赛，从没有真正地上场比赛，Laura逐渐变的气馁，她的妈妈及时发现了这一情况，鼓励她一定有机会上场，但前提是她继续训练，成为更好的球员，并和她一起制定独自训练计划的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，Laura和她的母亲制定了一个目标，并制定了训练计划。”可知，第一段可描写Laura和妈妈制定了什么训练计划，并执行下去以及执行计划的效果。 ②由第二段首句内容“接下来是下一个赛季。在球场上，一个最好的球员突然受伤了。”可知，第二段可描写Laura在下一个赛季中的比赛中正式上场并帮助球队获胜。 2. 续写线索：进入足球队——努力训练——一直没机会上场——气馁——妈妈为其打气——开始独自训练——有成效，更多人加入她的训练 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①前往：headed to/be bound for ②纠正：correct/put sth. right ③踏上：step onto/walk onto 情绪类 ①细心地：carefully/with special care ②害怕的：afraid/frightened/scared 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B When she was 24 years old, Lucie Basch left a promising career at Nestlé and determined to build an app to fight food waste. She had zero coding (编码) knowledge, no marketing experience, and no funding. What she did have, however, was dissatisfaction with just how much good food winds up in the rubbish — about 30 percent of global production. Food waste happens all along the supply chain, but another thing Basch did not have was specialized expertise in agriculture or mass production. So she focused on what she knew — the bakeries, restaurants, and grocery stores typically threw out their items left over at the end of the day. If someone could connect that supply with needy eaters, the food could instead be sold at a sharp discount. The result would be a three-way win, with businesses earning bonus income, consumers getting exceptionally cheap meals, and food being redirected from landfills. Basch, living in Norway at the time, hit the streets with flyers and sign-up sheets, persuading business owners to adopt an app that did not yet exist. “I made them the promise that it’s going to be as simple as throwing food away, but instead of putting it into a big garbage bag, you’re going to divide it into different bags,” Basch explained in her office in Paris. Before long, she linked up with a group of like-minded Danish professionals with the coding knowledge to make the app she had been promoting a reality, which was named “Too Good to Go”. Today, Too Good to Go is the world’s largest marketplace for leftover food, operating in 19 countries with more than a hundred million registered users. It is also a certified eco-friendly company. 24. Why did Lucie Basch make up her mind to develop the app? A. To launch a promising career. B. To establish a food supply chain. C. To address a severe food issue. D. To pick up some coding knowledge. 25. What did Basch plan to do? A. Recycle food waste from landfills. B. Give business owners bonus income. C. Make remains available to the needy. D. Convince stores to offer a big discount. 26. How did Basch influence business owners? A. By persuading them to use flyers. B. By promising them financial benefits. C. By asking them to put wasted food into a bag. D. By requesting them to sort and bag the left food. 27. What is a suitable title for the text? A. Learning to build an app? Consult Coding Experts B. Wanting Discounted Foods? Shop at the End of Day C. Aiming to Dominate Market? Follow Basch’s Success D. Emptying Your Leftover Food? Turn to Too Good to Go C As I signed the pre-medical application form, my fingers shook uncontrollably. The watercolor brushes on my desk seemed to gaze back at me, like old friends who had been left behind. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted (萦绕) me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads (便笺本). Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details”, something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brushwork. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his whiteboard, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical Illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your impractical skill makes you stand out,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality cancelling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 28. What did Lora’s mother believe about art from paragraph 1？ A. Art is a good way to express feelings. B. Art is not practical for making a living. C. Art can help with medical studies. D. Art is more important than science. 29. Dr. Eleanor thought of Lora’s “hidden skill” as ________. A. a plus B. a recreation C. a distraction D. a burden 30. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It directed her toward doctor training. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It convinced her of art’s role in health care. 31 What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. Every cloud has a silver lining. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. D Everything about nuclear energy seems terrifically big: the cost, construction and decommissioning — and the fears of something going badly wrong. The future, however may well be much smaller. Dozens of companies are working on a new generation of reactors that, they promise, can deliver nuclear power at lower cost and reduced risk. These small-scale plants will on average generate between 50MW and 300MW of power compared with the 1,000MW-plus from a conventional reactor. They will draw on modular manufacturing techniques that will reduce construction risk, which has plagued larger-scale projects. Supporters believe these advanced modular reactors (AMRs) — most of which will not be commercial until the 2030s — are critical if atomic power is to compete against the rapidly falling costs of solar and wind. “The physics hasn’t changed. It’s about much cleverer design that offers much-needed flexibility in terms of operation,” said Tim Stone, long-term industry adviser and chairman of Nuclear risk Insurers, which insures nuclear sites in the UK. Since the Fukushima meltdown in Japan in 2011, safety fears have threatened nuclear power. But the biggest obstacle today is economic. In western Europe, just three plants are under construction: in the UK at Hinkley point C in Somerset; at Flamanville in France; and at Olkiluoto in Finland. All involve the European Pressurized Reactor technology of EDF that will be used at Hinkley Point. All are running years late and over budget. In the US, the first two nuclear projects under way for the past 30 years are also blowing through cost estimates. The UK, which opened the world’s first commercial nuclear reactor in 1956, is one of the few western nations committed to renewing its ageing fleet to ensure energy security and meet tough carbon reduction targets. It is seen as a proving ground, by many in the industry, of nuclear power’s ability to restore confidence. However, the country’s agreement with EDF to build two units at Hinkley Point — which together will generate 3.2GW of electricity—has come under severe criticism over its cost. The government is looking at different funding models but said it still sees nuclear power as vital to the country’s future energy mix. Small reactors, it believes, have the potential to generate much-needed power from the 2030s. A nuclear sector deal, unveiled last month, promised up to ￡56m in funding for research and development into AMRs and attracted interest of start-ups from around the world. The government hopes the funding will give the UK a lead in the global race to develop these technologies, helping to provide energy security while also creating a multibillion-dollar export market for British engineering companies. 32. Which of the following is true about the advanced modular reactors (AMRs)? A. AMRs produce more power than traditional reactors B. Small in scale, AMRs rose more safety risks C. So far, most AMRs have not been put into use yet D. Governments prefer energy of solar and wind to that of AMRs 33. In paragraph 5, the author mentions the plants in Western Europe and the US to ________. A. prove that nuclear power has been threatened by safety concern. B. show that the construction of nuclear power plants cost more that the budget available C. indicate the construction of nuclear plants are slow in speed. D. point out that most power plants have adopted the latest nuclear technology 34. What can be inferred from the passage? A. Some people have lost confidence in the development of nuclear plants. B. The UK government seeks to reduce the negative impact of nuclear power on its economy. C. The plan to build two power plants in Hinkley Point has been deserted. D. a kind costs for small modular reactors would be higher relative to large nuclear reactors. 35. Which of the following can serve as the best title of this passage? A. Britain counts on nuclear energy to keep lights on B. Traditional nuclear plants boom with mini reactors C. Nuclear’s share of power generation remain stead D. Nuclear power looks to shrink its way to success 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Trees play a crucial role in urban areas by providing shade and helping to purify the air. ____36____ Therefore, we can say a city with trees is a much more livable place. Many cities do not have enough greenery and the trees that are there are competing for space with underground utilities (公用事业) and paved streets. ____37____ That’s because construction projects require dense compaction (压缩) of the soil, which does not give tree roots a chance to grow. However, an Israeli start-up based in Ramat Gan is aiming to change this with a system that allows trees to grow in urban areas. TreeTube, founded in 2019, has developed a unique patented system that supports tree growth. This takes into account the needs of utility companies as well as trees. “You need to have a space for electricity, gas, water, and so on,” TreeTube co-founder Jonathan Antebi said. “____38____” Urban trees often damage the man-made environment to give their roots room to grow. As a result, more than 30 percent of trees in cities will stop growing within three to five years, and many die within ten years. ____39____ This TreeTube system allows trees to grow with their roots firmly underground. The tubes can be placed in any place where the pavement has been removed for repairs or upgrades. ____40____ More than 1,000 new trees have been planted and are growing thanks to TreeTube. The tubes have been used in Israel, the Netherlands, and Estonia. TreeTube can play a large role in helping to fight global warming, one tree at a time. A. Sadly, the trees are disappearing. B. There also needs to be a place for trees. C. Planting more trees can slow down global warming. D. Some cities don’t need to build underground utilities. E. That’s why the start-up developed a root structure system. F. Once the tubes are in place, it’s easy and efficient to plant trees. G. In fact, trees can help cool a city and reduce the need for air-conditioning. 第三部分语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的四个选项A、B、 C和D中, 选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Setting off on a solo trip, I soon realized I was never really alone.

Laura had dreamed of earning glory for the Falcons ever since she had witnessed her older brother scoring the winning goal. On the day she joined the team, she felt like she could fly. Unfortunately, her joy did not last long. She spent most of the matches on the bench. Walking to the car after the last game, Laura’s mother asked if she was feeling fine. Laura kept quiet and tried to smile at her mother. Having spent yet another game as a reserve, Laura had not even broken a sweat. Laura also joked that she would have baked in the hot sun if she had played. Her mother assured her that she would have another chance to play. She also cheered Laura on. Laura could only shake her head as she climbed into the seat, back hunched and face down. A few days later, Laura’s mother found she sprawled on the couch, watching music videos on her phone, so she tried asking Laura to watch soccer videos instead. Laura looked at her mother blankly, rolling her eyes. “They won’t help me and I can’t get better by myself,” Laura said. Sighing, her mother sank down on the couch. “Laura, for every lock, there is a key. We just have to find it. What if I film you practicing to help you find ways to improve?” “But the season’s over, Mum. No more practice, remember?” Laura said. Her mother looked at her resolutely and insisted that the best players keep practicing even when the season is over. Laura protested, “But to practice plays, I would need at least one other person to join me! It is difficult to do that alone.” Laura’s mother patted her and said, “We’ll find that key too, but we have to start somewhere.” While Laura’s mother was searching her wallet for her gold key, she smiled gently at Laura. She gave Laura an assuring no d before passing her the key. “This key is a reminder for you to be strong and not give up. Let’s build something tomorrow.” Laura’s mother said. 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。 The next day, Laura and her mother built a goal and made a training plan. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Then came the next season.
