It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians. Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from Britain invaded America: the Beatles. Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any other musical groups before them. The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. It was one of the first “concept” albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea. The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from Britain to become popular in America. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960’s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs, Satisfaction. The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960s. His Purple Haze was liked by many people. By the 1970s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, heavy metal rock, punk rock, jazz rock and glitter rock. In the middle 1970s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album Born to Run. Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early 1960s. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam. 1. The main topic of this passage is___________. A. the history of American music B. the development of rock and roll music C. the famous rock and roll groups D. the new forms of rock and roll music 2. Which of the following matches is NOT true? A. the Beatles — Chuck Berry B. the Rolling Stones — Satisfaction C. Jimi Hendrix — Purple Haze D. Bruce Springsteen — Born to Run 3. Whose songs were mainly about social problems like unemployment and war? A. Elvis Presley’s. B. Bob Dylan’s. C. Jimi Hendrix’s. D. Springsteen’s. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍摇滚音乐的发展史。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第一段“Rock and roll music developed in the United States in the early 1950s. It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians.(摇滚乐于20世纪50年代初在美国发展起来。它基于非裔美国音乐家演奏的节奏蓝调音乐。)”、第二段“Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from Britain invaded America: the Beatles.(早期的摇滚歌手发展出了自己的音乐风格。埃尔维斯·普雷斯利、查克·贝里、海滩男孩和鲍勃·迪伦是20世纪60年代初最受欢迎的摇滚音乐家。他们都是美国人。然后，在1964年，一个来自英国的新摇滚乐队入侵了美国：披头士乐队。)”以及下文可知，文章主要讲摇滚乐的发展。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段“Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any other musical groups before them.(有人说披头士的音乐像地震一样震撼了美国。披头士乐队永远地改变了摇滚乐。他们早期的歌曲受到了包括Chuck Berry在内的美国摇滚音乐家的影响。但披头士乐队看起来不同，听起来也不同于他们之前的任何其他音乐团体。)”可知，Chuck Berry并不属于披头士乐队。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。由文章最后一段“Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early 1960s. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam.(Springsteen的音乐就像20世纪60年代初活跃的摇滚乐。他的许多歌曲都是关于社会问题的。他歌唱失业和越南战争的影响。)”可知，Springsteen的歌曲主要是关于失业和战争等社会问题。故选D项。 B In a stimulating interview with the philosopher Daniel Dennett in Living on Earth, Dennett shared that Charles Darwin and Alan Turing might make the same discovery. Darwin showed how you can get the appearance of purpose and design out of blind processes of natural selection. And Turing said that any computable problem can be computed by a machine without understanding. The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us. Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines. The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy. At the end of the day, even the smartest computers are our tools, and their intentions are ours. Or, to the extent that we can speak of their intentions at all—for example, the intention of a self-driving car to avoid an obstacle—we have in mind something it’s designed to do. Our growing dependence on technologies doesn’t mean we are losing our natural autonomy in quite this sense. Our needs remain. But it is a loss of autonomy. Even auto mechanics these days rely on computers and, in the era of self-driving cars, will any of us still know how to drive? Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days. The truth is, we’ve been technological since our dawn as a species. We first found ourselves in the archaeological record where we saw a great exposition of tools, technologies, art-making and language. In a sense, being human means being like a cyborg, which is a technological extension of our natural selves. This suggests that at any time in our development, a large-scale breakdown in the technological system would spell not exactly our doom, but our complete reorganization. Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked. When the library of Alexandria burned down, books and knowledge were lost. But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted. What happens to us then? 4. Which of the following statements might Dennett most likely agree with? A. AI’s development is bounded. B. AI doesn’t have comprehension. C AI might be overly relied on. D. AI’s evolution resembles natural selection. 5. Which of the following examples best matches the idea of “know-how” in paragraph 4? A. A farmer crafts a table with ancient tools. B. A nobleman hires servants to do housework. C. A chef prepares a dish with electronic aids. D. A student uses a calculator for math tasks. 6. Why did the author mention libraries in paragraph 6? A. To show the technological stability. B. To emphasize the technological weakness. C. To prove the technological safeguard. D. To illustrate the technological transformation. 7. What would be the best title for the text? A. Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy? B. How will Technology Breakdown Change Our Lives? C. How does the Human-Technology Relationship Develop? D. Will Artificial Autonomy Threaten Humanity’s Existence? 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文，主要探讨了AI和人类自主性的关系、人类对技术的依赖、人类的技术本质以及当前网络化社会面临的特殊困境。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines.(Dennett承认存在被替代的风险，但他认为这种风险被误解了。风险不在于机器会成为自主统治者，而在于我们会过度依赖机器。)”可知，Dennett最有可能同意的说法是人工智能可能会被过度依赖。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days.(想想如果我们断电会发生什么?正如Dennett所说，我们会被抛回19世纪。但事情会变得更糟，因为我们缺乏使我们的祖先在过去的日子里生活得很好的技术。)”可知，符合“know-how”的概念的是一位农民用古老的工具制作一张桌子。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked.(也许我们目前的困境之所以前所未有，是因为我们是如此紧密地联系在一起。)”和“But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted.(但在一个图书馆被其在线版本所取代的世界里，所有的图书馆都可能被轻易删除，这并不是不可想象的。)”可推知，作者在第六段提到图书馆是为了强调技术上的弱点。故选B项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us.(主持人随后表达了担忧：随着人工智能的发展，机器将主宰我们。)”和第三段中的“The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy.(人工智能的主要问题不是智能，而是自主性。)”可知，本文主要探讨了AI和人类自主性的关系、人类对技术的依赖、人类的技术本质以及当前网络化社会面临的特殊困境，因此最好的题目是A选项“Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy?(人们担忧的是人工智能还是自主性?)”。故选A项。 C Okay, the user typed “hunt for”. That’s rather unclear. Now, what does “hunt for” refer to? It could be a few things. First, they might be talking about the literal (字面的) meaning of hunting for animals. Maybe they’re interested in hunting as an activity, looking for information on how to hunt, where to hunt, etc. But I should consider other possibilities too. Instead, “hunt for” could be used metaphorically. Like searching for something, such as a job hunt, house hunt, or hunting for answers. Maybe they need help finding something specific, like a product, information, or advice on a search. Another angle: Maybe they’re referring to a movie, book, or game titled “Hunt for...” something. Could it be The Hunt for Red October or another title? Or perhaps a video game? But without more context, it’s hard to say. Also, “hunt for” could be part of a longer query (询问) they started but didn’t finish. Maybe they were going to ask “hunt for a new job” or “hunt for cheaper products”. Since the query is incomplete, I should ask for clarification (阐明) to provide the best help. Wait, but the user might expect me to guess the intention. Let me think. If I respond by asking for clarification, that’s safe. But maybe I can offer common interpretations and ask which one they mean. For example, hunting as an activity, job hunting, searching for information, etc. That way, they can specify without feeling stuck. Or maybe I can provide general information on hunting, like the activity, and mention other possibilities. But if I give too much information on the wrong topic, it might not help. So perhaps the best approach is to politely ask for more details to give the response accurately. Yeah, that’s better. Let me check if there’s any other possible meaning I missed. “Hunt for” could also relate to scavenger hunts, Easter egg hunts, etc. But again, without context, it’s a guess. So, the safest bet is to ask them to clarify their query. It seems like your query might be incomplete. Could you clarify what you’re looking for? For example: Are you asking about hunting as an activity (e.g., tips, regulations, ethical considerations)? searching for something specific (e.g., job hunting, house hunting, or hunting for information)? A reference to a book, movie, or game (e.g., The Hunt for Red October)? Let me know, and I’ll help! 8. What’s the speaker most likely to be? A. A conversational AI. B. An office secretary. C. An online English teacher. D. A customer service representative. 9. Why does the speaker suggest asking the user for clarification? A. Because the query is beyond words. B. Because the topic is too hard to respond to. C. Because “hunt for” is not a commonly- used phrase. D. Because the speaker wants to provide accurate help. 10. What is the speaker’s tone in the passage? A. Helpful and careful. B. Emotional and patient. C. Humorous and earnest. D. Persuasive and determined. 11. What will the speaker most likely say next if the user replies “job hunting”? A. “Your clarification is of little help.” B. “Let’s look at the unemployment benefit.” C. “Here are suggestions for writing a job application.” D. “Tips for interviewing potential employees are as follows.” 【答案】8. A 9. D 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要呈现了某主体在面对用户模糊输入“hunt for”时，多维度分析该短语的潜在含义，并最终决定通过引导用户澄清需求，以提供精准帮助的思考过程。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段中“Wait, but the user might expect me to guess the intention. Let me think. If I respond by asking for clarification, that’s safe. But maybe I can offer common interpretations and ask which one they mean.(等等，但用户可能希望我猜出意图。让我想想。如果我要求澄清，那是安全的。但也许我可以提供常见的解释，并问他们是什么意思。)”和倒数第二段中“It seems like your query might be incomplete. Could you clarify what you’re looking for? (看起来你的查询可能不完整。你能说清楚你在寻找什么吗？)”以及最后一段中“Let me know, and I’ll help! (告诉我，我会帮忙的！)”可知，说话者是在对一个不完整的用户查询进行分析并尝试提供帮助，这种交互方式符合对话式AI的特点。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Since the query is incomplete, I should ask for clarification to provide the best help. (由于查询不完整，我应该要求澄清以提供最佳帮助。)”和第五段中“So perhaps the best approach is to politely ask for more details to give the response accurately. (所以，也许最好的办法是礼貌地询问更多细节，以便准确地做出回应。)”可知，说话者要求用户澄清是为了提供准确的帮助。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“It seems like your query might be incomplete. Could you clarify what you’re looking for? (您的查询似乎不完整。你能澄清一下你在找什么吗?)”以及说话者在分析“hunt for”的可能含义时，考虑了多种情况，并给出了详细的解释和建议可知，说话者的语气是有帮助且细心的。故选A项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Are you asking about hunting as an activity (e.g., tips, regulations, ethical considerations)? searching for something specific (e.g., job hunting, house hunting, or hunting for information)? A reference to a book, movie, or game (e.g., The Hunt for Red October)? (您是在询问狩猎作为一种活动（例如，技巧、规定、道德考量）吗？是在寻找特定事物（例如，找工作、找房子或寻找信息）吗？还是在提及一本书、一部电影或一款游戏（例如，《猎杀红色十月》）？)”可推知，如果用户回复“求职”，说话人很可能会说“以下是撰写求职申请的建议”。故选C项。 D Echoes of a 1997 Harbour Night: A Farewell in Shadowed Times The Victoria Harbour glittered below, its familiar sparkle now a disquieting reminder of all Stanley Cheng was leaving behind. Seated at the rooftop restaurant, the savoury aroma of dai pai dong delicacies mingled oddly with the scent of his leather suitcase. Tomorrow, he would board a flight not for adventure, but for necessity — San Francisco. The imminent handover loomed like a storm cloud, forcing choices that tasted of unspoken compromise. Mei Ling, his confidante since their Kowloon childhood days, raised her teacup. Her smile, usually radiant, seemed strained at the edges. “To your journey, Stanley,” she offered, her voice thick with unvoiced sorrow. “May the Golden Gate shine half as brightly as our harbour tonight.” Stanley clung to her words, a knot of emotions tightening in his throat. Their shared history — surviving typhoons, cramming for exams under flickering neon, dreaming amidst the relentless energy of Nathan Road — felt poignantly fragile now. “Remember Wong Tai Sin last Mid-Autumn?” Mei Ling’s question hung in the air. “We released those lanterns, believing their flight mirrored our futures... boundless.” Stanley nodded, draining his jasmine tea to hide the involuntary tremor in his hand. The optimism of youth felt like a distant echo. “Fate plays discordant tunes, Mei,” he murmured, his gaze fixed on the ferries crisscrossing the dark water. “Leaving feels less like soaring, more like... uprooting.” Later, under the waning crescent moon, Mei Ling’s voice rose in a familiar melody — an old Cantopop ballad about fleeting time and unwavering bonds. Stanley listened, transfixed. Each note carved itself into his memory — the raucous city hum beneath them, the fragile warmth of shared presence, the profound ache of impending separation. This wasn’t mere farewell; it was the dismantling of a world. Why This Night Held the Weight of a Thousand Tomorrows As the final note faded, Mei Ling turned, her eyes reflecting the harbour lights. “Stanley,” she began, her voice laced with quiet intensity, “Time will pass. You’ll hear countless symphonies in concert halls across the ocean. You’ll witness sunsets gilding the Pacific, constellations unknown gracing foreign skies.” She paused, her next words deliberate, heavy. “Yet, I venture to say, no grandeur out there, no matter how dazzling, will eclipse the luminosity of this very hour. For this light,” she gestured around them, “isn’t cast by the moon alone, but by the shared history illuminating our goodbye.” Stanley felt the sting of profound truth. Future marvels would be admired, perhaps enjoyed, but always viewed through the lens of absence. This moment, steeped in shared sacrifice and tinged with regret, held an irreplaceable resonance. Its beauty was inextricably bound to its pain, magnified by the uncertainty of return. A Fragile Pact Against the Tide of Change Descending the Peak Tram for the last time, Mei Ling pressed a worn cassette into Stanley’s palm — recordings of Hong Kong’s soundscape. “When the fog clings stubbornly to those San Francisco hills,” she whispered, her composure finally fraying, “or when the sheer alienness of it all threatens to engulf you... play this. Let the rain sound like our monsoon, the cable car bell like our trams. Summon this night. Remember who we were here.” Stanley vowed solemnly, a lump rendering his voice hoarse. The path ahead promised isolation. When, or if, the stars would align for a reunion remained shrouded in the mists of tomorrow. It was this gnawing ambiguity that lent their final evening its excruciating preciousness. Standing alone later on his hotel balcony, the harbour’s dwindling lights mirroring his receding home, Mei Ling’s conviction resounded within him. No future splendour could wash away the imprint of this farewell — the bittersweet symphony of belonging, loss, and the unyielding spirit of a home carried within. Its perfection lay not in joy, but in the depth of feeling shared under a shared sky, one final time. Home, he realised, was not a place, but a moment — this moment — suspended precariously between a cherished past and an uncharted future. 12. When Mei Ling compares the Golden Gate Bridge to “our harbour tonight,” why does this comparison make the pain stronger? A. She is saying more than she means. B. She uses a part to represent the whole. C. She uses an exaggerated irony. D. She gives an object a human feeling. 13. The cassette’s hidden weight lies in its power to_________. A. compress an entire city’s soundscape into exile’s pocket B. predict the weather in San Francisco C. erase the need for photographs D. replace Cantonese tones with English vowels 14. In calling leaving “uprooting,” Stanley reveals the core conflict between _________. A. personal ambition and filial duty B. fixed place and floating identity C romance and career D. memory and imagination 15. The waning crescent moon over the harbour silently measures__________. A. the shrinking time before reunion B. the fading light of a collective era C. the exact hour of departure D. the waxing hope of return 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述1997年香港回归前夕，Stanley因局势将赴旧金山，与好友Mei Ling在维多利亚港告别，蕴含着离别之痛与时代变迁下的复杂情感。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“May the Golden Gate shine half as brightly as our harbour tonight.(愿金门大桥的光芒能有我们今晚港湾的一半明亮)”可知，Mei Ling用夸张的对比，暗示旧金山的金门大桥虽有名，但在她心中远不及家乡港湾的光芒，这种略带讽刺的夸张表达，让离别的痛苦因对家乡的珍视而更加强烈。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Mei Ling pressed a worn cassette into Stanley’s palm — recordings of Hong Kong’s soundscape. “When the fog clings stubbornly to those San Francisco hills, or when the sheer alienness of it all threatens to engulf you play this. Let the rain sound like our monsoon, the cable car bell like our trams.(Mei Ling将一盘旧磁带塞进Stanley的手心——里面录着香港的各种声音。“当旧金山的山岗被浓雾久久笼罩，或是当周遭全然的陌生感快要将你吞噬时就听听这个。让那里的雨声听着像我们这里的季风，缆车的铃声听着像我们的电车”)”可知，这盘磁带的隐藏分量在于它能将整个城市的声音压缩进远在异乡的人的口袋，成为连接家乡的情感纽带。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““Leaving feels less like soaring, more like... uprooting.”(“离开不像是展翅翱翔，更像是……被连根拔起”)”可知，“uprooting”（连根拔起）一词揭示了Stanley内心深处固定的家乡归属感与即将面临的漂泊身份之间的核心冲突。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。结合全文背景（1997 年香港回归前夕）及第六段中的“This wasn’t mere farewell; it was the dismantling of a world.(这不仅仅是告别，更是一个世界的解体。)”可知，港湾上空的峨眉残月悄然丈量着一个集体时代光芒的消逝。故选B项。 E I once found myself in the darkest valley of my life. Gossip and rumors, like a storm of arrows, rained down upon me from all directions. They struck me mercilessly, leaving invisible wounds that bled with every passing day. My world, once filled with the vibrant colors of hope and joy, was now painted in the bleak shades of despair and confusion. I felt as if I were trapped in a labyrinth, with no exit in sight, and every turn leading to another dead end of self-doubt and fear. During those tormenting days, I sought solace in the most unexpected of places-the pages of classical literature. I remember the first time I opened a renowned classic, its words seemed to whisper to me in a language both ancient and familiar. As I delved deeper into the text, I was amazed to find that the struggles of the characters mirrored my own in many ways. They too had faced trials and tribulations, had been misunderstood and judged by others, yet they had found the strength to persevere. One particular novel left an indelible mark on my soul. The protagonist, a woman of great depth and resilience, faced a scandal that threatened to ruin her reputation and life. But instead of succumbing to despair, she retreated into her inner world, using her intellect and wisdom to navigate through the storm. Her journey was fraught with pain and uncertainty, yet she emerged stronger and more self-assured than before. Reading this story was like holding a mirror up to my own life. I began to see that the gossip and rumors were not a reflection of who I truly was. They were merely the shadows cast by the fear and ignorance of others. I realized that my worth was not defined by the words of others, but by the substance of my character and the integrity of my actions. As I continued to immerse myself in the world of literature, I discovered valuable lessons about life and human nature. I learned that suffering, though painful, could be a catalyst for growth and transformation. The characters in the books showed me that even in the darkest of times, there was always a glimmer of hope, a spark of light waiting to be fanned into a flame. Gradually, I started to rebuild my life, one step at a time. I drew strength from the resilience of the literary figures I had come to admire. I learned to value my own thoughts and feelings, to trust in my own judgment, and to rise above the noise of gossip and judgments. This experience taught me an invaluable lesson about life. It showed me that during our darkest moments, when the world seems to have turned its back on us, the greatest source of strength and wisdom can be found within ourselves and in the timeless wisdom of great literature. The journey from despair to self-discovery is not an easy one, but it is a journey worth taking, for it leads us to a deeper understanding of ourselves and the true meaning of life. And in the end, it is this understanding that allows us to emerge from the shadows and walk once again in the light, with our heads held high and our hearts filled with renewed hope and purpose. 16. The author’s primary purpose in the passage is to . A. Critique the destructive power of social judgment through allegorical metaphors. B. Chronicle a psychological metamorphosis catalyzed by introspective engagement with art. C. Contrast ephemeral worldly tribulations with enduring philosophical truths. D. Deconstruct the ontological relationship between external perception and self-concept. 17. The protagonist’s retreat into her “inner world”(Paragraph 3) most likely implies . A. A strategic disengagement from interpersonal conflicts through intellectual sublimation. B. An epistemological shift from empirical reasoning to intuitive cognition. C. The prioritization of subjective interpretation over objective reality. D. A dialectical synthesis of existential suffering and creative transcendence. 18. The metaphor “shadows cast by the fear and ignorance of others”(Paragraph 4) suggests gossip is fundamentally . A. Projections of others' unexamined biases B. Distorted reflections of latent insecurities C. Epistemological voids in collective consciousness D. Cognitive dissonance manifesting as social phenomena 19. The literary figures’ resilience is portrayed as deriving from . A. Systematic deconstruction of societal norms B. Existential detachment from temporal concerns C. Alchemical transformation of adversity D. Hermeneutic reinterpretation of personal narratives 【答案】16. B 17. D 18. A 19. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述作者在遭流言困扰时借古典文学实现自我蜕变的故事。 【16题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，根据第一段的“I once found myself in the darkest valley of my life. Gossip and rumors, like a storm of arrows, rained down upon me from all directions.(我曾一度深陷于人生中最黑暗的低谷。流言蜚语如暴风骤雨般的利箭，从四面八方朝我倾泻而来)”以及第二段的“During those tormenting days, I sought solace in the most unexpected of places-the pages of classical literature.(在那段令人煎熬难捱的日子里，我竟在最意想不到之处寻得了慰藉——那便是古典文学的书页之间)”可知，文章开篇讲述作者处于人生低谷，受到流言蜚语的伤害，之后通过阅读古典文学，从书中人物的经历中获得启示，实现了从绝望到自我发现的转变，心理状态发生了变化。作者主要是在记录一次由对艺术（古典文学）的内省式接触所催化的心理蜕变过程。故选B。 17题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The protagonist, a woman of great depth and resilience, faced a scandal that threatened to ruin her reputation and life. But instead of succumbing to despair, she retreated into her inner world, using her intellect and wisdom to navigate through the storm. Her journey was fraught with pain and uncertainty, yet she emerged stronger and more self-assured than before.(这位主人公是一位内心深邃且极具韧性的女性，她遭遇了一场可能会毁掉她声誉和生活的丑闻。但她没有向绝望屈服，而是退回到自己的内心世界，运用自己的才智和智慧在这场风暴中艰难前行。她的历程充满了痛苦与不确定性，然而，她最终变得比以往更强大、更自信了)”可知，主人公将生活中的痛苦和困境这种存在性的苦难通过进入内心世界，运用智慧去应对，实现了自身的成长和超越，这是一种将苦难转化为成长动力的创造性超越，体现了存在性苦难和创造性超越的辩证结合。所以主人公退回到她的 “内心世界” 最有可能暗示的是存在性苦难和创造性超越的辩证综合。故选D。 【18题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“I began to see that the gossip and rumors were not a reflection of who I truly was. They were merely the shadows cast by the fear and ignorance of others. I realized that my worth was not defined by the words of others, but by the substance of my character and the integrity of my actions.(我开始明白，那些流言蜚语并非是对真实自我的反映。它们只不过是他人的恐惧和无知所投射出的阴影罢了。我意识到，我的价值并非由他人的言论所决定，而是取决于我自身品格的实质以及我行为的正直与否)” 可知，作者认为流言蜚语不是自己真实的反映，只是他人的恐惧和无知所投射出来的影子。这表明流言本质上是他人未经审视的偏见的投射。故选A。 【19题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“As I continued to immerse myself in the world of literature, I discovered valuable lessons about life and human nature. I learned that suffering, though painful, could be a catalyst for growth and transformation. The characters in the books showed me that even in the darkest of times, there was always a glimmer of hope, a spark of light waiting to be fanned into a flame.(当我继续沉浸在文学的世界中时，我领悟到了有关生活和人性的宝贵道理。我明白了，苦难虽然痛苦，但却可以成为成长与蜕变的催化剂。书中的人物向我展示了，即便处于最黑暗的时刻，也总会有一丝希望的曙光，那是一星等待着被煽成火焰的光芒)”可知，作者从文学作品中了解到痛苦可以成为成长和转变的催化剂，书中的人物即使在最黑暗的时刻也能找到希望，将困境转化为成长的动力。这说明文学人物的韧性来自于对逆境的转化。故选C。 第二节：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。 There is a growing trend in medicine: doctors are prescribing time in nature to their patients to address a wide variety of physical and mental health concerns. These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations. ____20____ Scott Kaiser, MD, a director of geriatric cognitive health at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute, is one of these doctors. “Nature has a profound impact on healthy aging and overall well-being,” he explains. “There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose. ____21____ I can’t overstate how powerful nature can be as a healer.” Here are some common ways of natural healing. “Sensory walks” are an easy way to get started. Dr. Kaiser advises walking mindfully through nature while focusing on all five senses, paying attention to what you can see, smell, hear, touch and even taste. “Leave your gadgets at home,” he adds, “so you can be undistracted and really experience it all.” Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy. ____22____ Immerse yourself in water that feels uncomfortably cold and stay there for 30 seconds to a minute. Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases. ____23____ Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning. Sunlight exposure boosts vitamin D, crucial for overall health. And getting early morning sunlight in your eyes will help refresh you. Other simple prescriptions include gardening, hiking, biking or swimming. And if active pursuits feel like too much, even just sitting outdoors on a park bench can help, as it may improve your immune system and lower the risk of cancer. ____24____ Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function. A. The benefits extend beyond physical health. B. But doctors suggest that it requires gradual adaptation. C. This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water. D. You’ll immediately be happier, healthier and more productive. E. If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too. F. Instead, they’re evidence-based interventions backed by science. G. Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time. 【答案】20. F 21. G 22. C 23. E 24. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。医学中自然处方成趋势，有科学依据，能应对多种健康问题，文章主要介绍了感官散步、冷疗等方式，益处远超生理健康。 【20题详解】 根据前文“These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations.( 这些“自然处方”不仅仅是让人感觉良好的建议。)”F选项“Instead, they’re evidence - based interventions backed by science.”（相反，它们是有科学依据的循证干预措施）与前文形成对比转折关系，进一步说明自然处方是有科学依据的，符合语境。故选F项。 【21题详解】 根据前文“There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose.( 健康老龄化有几个因素 —— 饮食、运动、正念、归属感、创造力和目标感。)”提到健康老龄化有几个因素，G选项“Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time.( 在户外可以同时获得所有这些。)”这里的“all of these”指代前面提到的健康老龄化的几个因素，说明户外对健康老龄化的作用，符合语境。故选G项。 【22题详解】 根据前文“Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy.( 另一种越来越受欢迎的处方是冷疗法。)”提到冷疗法。C选项“This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water.( 这种做法包括让自己暴露在冷水中。)”“This practice”指代冷疗法，具体说明了冷疗法是让自己接触冷水，符合语境。故选C项。 【23题详解】 根据前文“Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases.( 大多数人从10到15摄氏度的水开始，尽管有些人随着耐受性的增加而变得更冷。)”介绍了冷疗法这种相对较强烈的方式，后面提到“Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning.( 试试在清晨简单地步行 15 分钟。)”这是比较温和的方式，E 选项“If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too.( 如果那听起来太强烈了，大自然也提供了更温和的选择。)”起到承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选E项。 【24题详解】 根据后文“Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function.( 自然处方还可以减轻压力、抑郁和焦虑，同时提高认知功能。)”这是在说自然处方对心理健康方面的好处，A 选项“The benefits extend beyond physical health.( 好处不仅仅局限于身体健康。)”说明自然处方的好处不仅在身体方面，还延伸到心理等其他方面，符合语境。故选A项。 第三部分 语言运用 第一节：阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was a snowy Sunday in December 2022 and I was very ____25____ — it was my seventh straight day on the job as a letter carrier with Canada Post.

They were playing fetch with her favorite ball. Rose loved chasing it! But this time, the ball bounced too close to some big, jagged rocks. Rose, excited and focused on getting her ball, didn’t see the danger. She ran after it and vanished straight down a very narrow crack between the rocks. She fell a scary 40 feet deep into the dark hole below. Jack was horrified. Rescue teams quickly arrived: firefighters, animal rescuers, and even experts who know about deep holes. They looked down the dark, tight space. It looked very dangerous. They sadly decided that trying to rescue Rose was too risky. They didn’t think anyone could safely get her out. They gave the terrible news: Rose probably wouldn’t survive and they could do nothing for her. Hope seemed very small. Jack’s heart was breaking. He couldn’t believe his little dog was trapped deep underground and everyone said there was no hope. He wouldn’t accept it. While the rescue teams sadly packed up, Jack stayed. He found a shovel and started digging near the rocks where Rose had fallen. It was back-breaking work. The ground was hard as stone. Sweat poured down his face, and his hands became sore and blistered. He dug fiercely, calling Rose’s name down the dark hole. He had to get to her. After hours of exhausting work alone, Jack had an idea. He pulled out his phone. With shaking, dirty hands, he took pictures of the deep crack and the spot where he was desperately digging. He wrote a heartfelt message: “This is my dog, Rose. She fell down this hole. They say it’s too dangerous to save her. I’m her owner, and I can’t leave her. I’m digging her out, but I need help. Please, can anyone help us? Share this!” He posted this plea on social media such as Facebook and Twitter. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 Jack didn’t know if anyone would even notice his post. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Jack’s post didn’t just bring messages; it brought people. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 Jack didn’t know if anyone would even notice his post. But then, something truly amazing happened. People saw his heartbreaking pictures of the dark, scary hole and read his desperate words — a father refusing to abandon his beloved dog. Their hearts instantly ached for him. They didn’t just read it; they shared it everywhere. Friends told friends, families shared it at dinner, and strangers across oceans passed it on. Within days, what started as one man’s plea became a global story. Thousands, then millions, of people all over the planet knew the names Jack and Rose and were rooting for her. Jack’s post didn’t just bring messages; it brought people. Within days, volunteers poured in from everywhere. Men and women drove from nearby towns, from across England, and even from Scotland and Wales. They arrived dust-covered and determined, carrying heavy tools like drills, and generators bought with online donations. They shared one goal: save the dog. Strangers worked side-by-side, tirelessly chipping away at the stubborn rock. The lonely hole became a hive of hope, filled with the sounds of effort and the shared dream of seeing Rose safe. Finally, the inspiring news erupted: “She’s out!” It felt as if the entire world felt relieved.

It was based on the music called rhythm and blues that was performed by African American musicians. Early rock and roll singers developed their own kinds of music. Elvis Presley, Chuck Berry, the Beach Boys and Bob Dylan were the most popular rock and roll musicians in the early 1960s. All were American. Then, in 1964, a new rock and roll group from Britain invaded America: the Beatles. Some people say the Beatles’ music shook America like an earthquake. The Beatles changed rock and roll forever. Their early songs were influenced by American rock and roll musicians, including Chuck Berry. But the Beatles looked different and sounded different from any other musical groups before them. The Beatles released their first album in the United States in 1964, when all of the top five records in America were by the Beatles. In 1967, they released an album called Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band. It was one of the first “concept” albums. That is, all the songs were linked by a common story or idea. The popularity of the Beatles led the way for more rock and roll bands from Britain to become popular in America. The Rolling Stones was the most important of these bands. The Rolling Stones is one of the few groups from the 1960’s that is still performing and recording today. In 1965, the group recorded one of its most famous songs, Satisfaction. The musical instrument most linked to rock and roll is the guitar. Experts say Jimi Hendrix was one of the most influential guitar players in rock and roll during the late 1960s. His Purple Haze was liked by many people. By the 1970s, rock and roll music became known as rock music. It expanded into many new forms. For example, there was country rock, hard rock, acid rock, heavy metal rock, punk rock, jazz rock and glitter rock. In the middle 1970s, experts say rock music regained some of the energy of early rock and roll. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band became popular with their album Born to Run. Springsteen’s music was like the lively rock and roll music of the early 1960s. Many of his songs were about social issues. He sang about the effects of unemployment and the war in Vietnam. 1. The main topic of this passage is___________. A. the history of American music B. the development of rock and roll music C. the famous rock and roll groups D. the new forms of rock and roll music 2. Which of the following matches is NOT true? A. the Beatles — Chuck Berry B. the Rolling Stones — Satisfaction C. Jimi Hendrix — Purple Haze D. Bruce Springsteen — Born to Run 3. Whose songs were mainly about social problems like unemployment and war? A. Elvis Presley’s. B. Bob Dylan’s. C. Jimi Hendrix’s. D. Springsteen’s. B In a stimulating interview with the philosopher Daniel Dennett in Living on Earth, Dennett shared that Charles Darwin and Alan Turing might make the same discovery. Darwin showed how you can get the appearance of purpose and design out of blind processes of natural selection. And Turing said that any computable problem can be computed by a machine without understanding. The host then voiced a concern: as AI advances, machines will come to lord over us. Dennett acknowledges there’s a takeover risk but claims it’s misunderstood. The risk is not that machines will become autonomous rulers but that we will depend too much on machines. The main issue with AI is not intelligence but autonomy. At the end of the day, even the smartest computers are our tools, and their intentions are ours. Or, to the extent that we can speak of their intentions at all—for example, the intention of a self-driving car to avoid an obstacle—we have in mind something it’s designed to do. Our growing dependence on technologies doesn’t mean we are losing our natural autonomy in quite this sense. Our needs remain. But it is a loss of autonomy. Even auto mechanics these days rely on computers and, in the era of self-driving cars, will any of us still know how to drive? Think what would happen if we lost electricity? We’d be thrown back into the 19th century, as Dennett says. But things would be worse, as we lack know-how that made it possible for our ancestors to live well in the olden days. The truth is, we’ve been technological since our dawn as a species. We first found ourselves in the archaeological record where we saw a great exposition of tools, technologies, art-making and language. In a sense, being human means being like a cyborg, which is a technological extension of our natural selves. This suggests that at any time in our development, a large-scale breakdown in the technological system would spell not exactly our doom, but our complete reorganization. Perhaps what makes our current dilemma unprecedented (史无前例的) is the fact that we are so closely networked. When the library of Alexandria burned down, books and knowledge were lost. But in a world where libraries are replaced by their online versions, it isn’t unimaginable that every library could be simply deleted. What happens to us then? 4. Which of the following statements might Dennett most likely agree with? A. AI’s development is bounded. B. AI doesn’t have comprehension. C. AI might be overly relied on. D. AI’s evolution resembles natural selection. 5. Which of the following examples best matches the idea of “know-how” in paragraph 4? A. A farmer crafts a table with ancient tools. B. A nobleman hires servants to do housework. C. A chef prepares a dish with electronic aids. D. A student uses a calculator for math tasks. 6. Why did the author mention libraries in paragraph 6? A. To show the technological stability. B. To emphasize the technological weakness. C. To prove the technological safeguard. D. To illustrate the technological transformation. 7. What would be the best title for the text? A. Is the Concern Artificial Intelligence or Autonomy? B. How will Technology Breakdown Change Our Lives? C. How does the Human-Technology Relationship Develop? D. Will Artificial Autonomy Threaten Humanity’s Existence? C Okay, the user typed “hunt for”. That’s rather unclear. Now, what does “hunt for” refer to? It could be a few things. First, they might be talking about the literal (字面的) meaning of hunting for animals. Maybe they’re interested in hunting as an activity, looking for information on how to hunt, where to hunt, etc. But I should consider other possibilities too. Instead, “hunt for” could be used metaphorically. Like searching for something, such as a job hunt, house hunt, or hunting for answers. Maybe they need help finding something specific, like a product, information, or advice on a search. Another angle: Maybe they’re referring to a movie, book, or game titled “Hunt for...” something. Could it be The Hunt for Red October or another title? Or perhaps a video game? But without more context, it’s hard to say. Also, “hunt for” could be part of a longer query (询问) they started but didn’t finish. Maybe they were going to ask “hunt for a new job” or “hunt for cheaper products”. Since the query is incomplete, I should ask for clarification (阐明) to provide the best help. Wait, but the user might expect me to guess the intention. Let me think. If I respond by asking for clarification, that’s safe. But maybe I can offer common interpretations and ask which one they mean. For example, hunting as an activity, job hunting, searching for information, etc. That way, they can specify without feeling stuck. Or maybe I can provide general information on hunting, like the activity, and mention other possibilities. But if I give too much information on the wrong topic, it might not help. So perhaps the best approach is to politely ask for more details to give the response accurately. Yeah, that’s better. Let me check if there’s any other possible meaning I missed. “Hunt for” could also relate to scavenger hunts, Easter egg hunts, etc. But again, without context, it’s a guess. So, the safest bet is to ask them to clarify their query. It seems like your query might be incomplete. Could you clarify what you’re looking for? For example: Are you asking about hunting as an activity (e.g., tips, regulations, ethical considerations)? searching for something specific (e.g., job hunting, house hunting, or hunting for information)? A reference to a book, movie, or game (e.g., The Hunt for Red October)? Let me know, and I’ll help! 8. What’s the speaker most likely to be? A. A conversational AI. B. An office secretary. C. An online English teacher. D. A customer service representative. 9. Why does the speaker suggest asking the user for clarification? A. Because the query is beyond words. B. Because the topic is too hard to respond to. C. Because “hunt for” is not a commonly- used phrase. D. Because the speaker wants to provide accurate help. 10. What is the speaker’s tone in the passage? A. Helpful and careful. B. Emotional and patient. C. Humorous and earnest. D. Persuasive and determined. 11. What will the speaker most likely say next if the user replies “job hunting”? A. “Your clarification is of little help.” B. “Let’s look at the unemployment benefit.” C. “Here are suggestions for writing a job application.” D. “Tips for interviewing potential employees are as follows.” D Echoes of a 1997 Harbour Night: A Farewell in Shadowed Times The Victoria Harbour glittered below, its familiar sparkle now a disquieting reminder of all Stanley Cheng was leaving behind. Seated at the rooftop restaurant, the savoury aroma of dai pai dong delicacies mingled oddly with the scent of his leather suitcase. Tomorrow, he would board a flight not for adventure, but for necessity — San Francisco. The imminent handover loomed like a storm cloud, forcing choices that tasted of unspoken compromise. Mei Ling, his confidante since their Kowloon childhood days, raised her teacup. Her smile, usually radiant, seemed strained at the edges. “To your journey, Stanley,” she offered, her voice thick with unvoiced sorrow. “May the Golden Gate shine half as brightly as our harbour tonight.” Stanley clung to her words, a knot of emotions tightening in his throat. Their shared history — surviving typhoons, cramming for exams under flickering neon, dreaming amidst the relentless energy of Nathan Road — felt poignantly fragile now. “Remember Wong Tai Sin last Mid-Autumn?” Mei Ling’s question hung in the air. “We released those lanterns, believing their flight mirrored our futures... boundless.” Stanley nodded, draining his jasmine tea to hide the involuntary tremor in his hand. The optimism of youth felt like a distant echo. “Fate plays discordant tunes, Mei,” he murmured, his gaze fixed on the ferries crisscrossing the dark water. “Leaving feels less like soaring, more like... uprooting.” Later, under the waning crescent moon, Mei Ling’s voice rose in a familiar melody — an old Cantopop ballad about fleeting time and unwavering bonds. Stanley listened, transfixed. Each note carved itself into his memory — the raucous city hum beneath them, the fragile warmth of shared presence, the profound ache of impending separation. This wasn’t mere farewell; it was the dismantling of a world. Why This Night Held the Weight of a Thousand Tomorrows As the final note faded, Mei Ling turned, her eyes reflecting the harbour lights. “Stanley,” she began, her voice laced with quiet intensity, “Time will pass. You’ll hear countless symphonies in concert halls across the ocean. You’ll witness sunsets gilding the Pacific, constellations unknown gracing foreign skies.” She paused, her next words deliberate, heavy. “Yet, I venture to say, no grandeur out there, no matter how dazzling, will eclipse the luminosity of this very hour. For this light,” she gestured around them, “isn’t cast by the moon alone, but by the shared history illuminating our goodbye.” Stanley felt the sting of profound truth. Future marvels would be admired, perhaps enjoyed, but always viewed through the lens of absence. This moment, steeped in shared sacrifice and tinged with regret, held an irreplaceable resonance. Its beauty was inextricably bound to its pain, magnified by the uncertainty of return. A Fragile Pact Against the Tide of Change Descending the Peak Tram for the last time, Mei Ling pressed a worn cassette into Stanley’s palm — recordings of Hong Kong’s soundscape. “When the fog clings stubbornly to those San Francisco hills,” she whispered, her composure finally fraying, “or when the sheer alienness of it all threatens to engulf you... play this. Let the rain sound like our monsoon, the cable car bell like our trams. Summon this night. Remember who we were here.” Stanley vowed solemnly, a lump rendering his voice hoarse. The path ahead promised isolation. When, or if, the stars would align for a reunion remained shrouded in the mists of tomorrow. It was this gnawing ambiguity that lent their final evening its excruciating preciousness. Standing alone later on his hotel balcony, the harbour’s dwindling lights mirroring his receding home, Mei Ling’s conviction resounded within him. No future splendour could wash away the imprint of this farewell — the bittersweet symphony of belonging, loss, and the unyielding spirit of a home carried within. Its perfection lay not in joy, but in the depth of feeling shared under a shared sky, one final time. Home, he realised, was not a place, but a moment — this moment — suspended precariously between a cherished past and an uncharted future. 12. When Mei Ling compares the Golden Gate Bridge to “our harbour tonight,” why does this comparison make the pain stronger? A. She is saying more than she means. B. She uses a part to represent the whole. C. She uses an exaggerated irony. D. She gives an object a human feeling. 13. The cassette’s hidden weight lies in its power to_________. A. compress an entire city’s soundscape into exile’s pocket B. predict the weather in San Francisco C. erase the need for photographs D. replace Cantonese tones with English vowels 14. In calling leaving “uprooting,” Stanley reveals the core conflict between _________. A. personal ambition and filial duty B. fixed place and floating identity C. romance and career D. memory and imagination 15. The waning crescent moon over the harbour silently measures__________. A. the shrinking time before reunion B. the fading light of a collective era C. the exact hour of departure D. the waxing hope of return E I once found myself in the darkest valley of my life. Gossip and rumors like a storm of arrows, rained down upon me from all directions. They struck me mercilessly, leaving invisible wounds that bled with every passing day. My world, once filled with the vibrant colors of hope and joy, was now painted in the bleak shades of despair and confusion. I felt as if I were trapped in a labyrinth, with no exit in sight, and every turn leading to another dead end of self-doubt and fear. During those tormenting days, I sought solace in the most unexpected of places-the pages of classical literature. I remember the first time I opened a renowned classic, its words seemed to whisper to me in a language both ancient and familiar. As I delved deeper into the text, I was amazed to find that the struggles of the characters mirrored my own in many ways. They too had faced trials and tribulations, had been misunderstood and judged by others, yet they had found the strength to persevere. One particular novel left an indelible mark on my soul. The protagonist, a woman of great depth and resilience, faced a scandal that threatened to ruin her reputation and life. But instead of succumbing to despair, she retreated into her inner world, using her intellect and wisdom to navigate through the storm. Her journey was fraught with pain and uncertainty, yet she emerged stronger and more self-assured than before. Reading this story was like holding a mirror up to my own life. I began to see that the gossip and rumors were not a reflection of who I truly was. They were merely the shadows cast by the fear and ignorance of others. I realized that my worth was not defined by the words of others, but by the substance of my character and the integrity of my actions. As I continued to immerse myself in the world of literature, I discovered valuable lessons about life and human nature. I learned that suffering, though painful, could be a catalyst for growth and transformation. The characters in the books showed me that even in the darkest of times, there was always a glimmer of hope, a spark of light waiting to be fanned into a flame. Gradually, I started to rebuild my life, one step at a time. I drew strength from the resilience of the literary figures I had come to admire. I learned to value my own thoughts and feelings, to trust in my own judgment, and to rise above the noise of gossip and judgments. This experience taught me an invaluable lesson about life. It showed me that during our darkest moments, when the world seems to have turned its back on us, the greatest source of strength and wisdom can be found within ourselves and in the timeless wisdom of great literature. The journey from despair to self-discovery is not an easy one, but it is a journey worth taking, for it leads us to a deeper understanding of ourselves and the true meaning of life. And in the end, it is this understanding that allows us to emerge from the shadows and walk once again in the light, with our heads held high and our hearts filled with renewed hope and purpose. 16. The author’s primary purpose in the passage is to . A. Critique the destructive power of social judgment through allegorical metaphors. B. Chronicle a psychological metamorphosis catalyzed by introspective engagement with art. C. Contrast ephemeral worldly tribulations with enduring philosophical truths. D. Deconstruct the ontological relationship between external perception and self-concept. 17. The protagonist’s retreat into her “inner world”(Paragraph 3) most likely implies . A. A strategic disengagement from interpersonal conflicts through intellectual sublimation. B. An epistemological shift from empirical reasoning to intuitive cognition. C. The prioritization of subjective interpretation over objective reality. D. A dialectical synthesis of existential suffering and creative transcendence. 18. The metaphor “shadows cast by the fear and ignorance of others”(Paragraph 4) suggests gossip is fundamentally . A. Projections of others' unexamined biases B. Distorted reflections of latent insecurities C. Epistemological voids in collective consciousness D. Cognitive dissonance manifesting as social phenomena 19. The literary figures’ resilience is portrayed as deriving from . A. Systematic deconstruction of societal norms B. Existential detachment from temporal concerns C Alchemical transformation of adversity D. Hermeneutic reinterpretation of personal narratives 第二节：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。 There is a growing trend in medicine: doctors are prescribing time in nature to their patients to address a wide variety of physical and mental health concerns. These “nature prescriptions (处方)” aren’t just feel-good recommendations. ____20____ Scott Kaiser, MD, a director of geriatric cognitive health at the Pacific Neuroscience Institute, is one of these doctors. “Nature has a profound impact on healthy aging and overall well-being,” he explains. “There are several factors in healthy aging—diet, exercise, mindfulness, community, creativity and a sense of purpose. ____21____ I can’t overstate how powerful nature can be as a healer.” Here are some common ways of natural healing. “Sensory walks” are an easy way to get started. Dr. Kaiser advises walking mindfully through nature while focusing on all five senses, paying attention to what you can see, smell, hear, touch and even taste. “Leave your gadgets at home,” he adds, “so you can be undistracted and really experience it all.” Another prescription gaining popularity is cold therapy. ____22____ Immerse yourself in water that feels uncomfortably cold and stay there for 30 seconds to a minute. Most people start with water that’s about 10℃ to 15℃, though some go colder as their tolerance increases. ____23____ Try simply walking for 15 minutes in the early morning. Sunlight exposure boosts vitamin D, crucial for overall health. And getting early morning sunlight in your eyes will help refresh you. Other simple prescriptions include gardening, hiking, biking or swimming. And if active pursuits feel like too much, even just sitting outdoors on a park bench can help, as it may improve your immune system and lower the risk of cancer. ____24____ Nature prescriptions can also lower stress, depression and anxiety while improving cognitive function. A. The benefits extend beyond physical health. B. But doctors suggest that it requires gradual adaptation. C. This practice involves exposing yourself to cold water. D. You’ll immediately be happier, healthier and more productive. E. If that sounds too intense, nature offers gentler alternatives, too. F. Instead, they’re evidence-based interventions backed by science. G. Being outdoors can provide access to all of these at the same time. 第三部分 语言运用 第一节：阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 It was a snowy Sunday in December 2022 and I was very ____25____ — it was my seventh straight day on the job as a letter carrier with Canada Post.

They were playing fetch with her favorite ball. Rose loved chasing it! But this time, the ball bounced too close to some big, jagged rocks. Rose, excited and focused on getting her ball, didn’t see the danger. She ran after it and vanished straight down a very narrow crack between the rocks. She fell a scary 40 feet deep into the dark hole below. Jack was horrified. Rescue teams quickly arrived: firefighters, animal rescuers, and even experts who know about deep holes. They looked down the dark, tight space. It looked very dangerous. They sadly decided that trying to rescue Rose was too risky. They didn’t think anyone could safely get her out. They gave the terrible news: Rose probably wouldn’t survive and they could do nothing for her. Hope seemed very small. Jack’s heart was breaking. He couldn’t believe his little dog was trapped deep underground and everyone said there was no hope. He wouldn’t accept it. While the rescue teams sadly packed up, Jack stayed. He found a shovel and started digging near the rocks where Rose had fallen. It was back-breaking work. The ground was hard as stone. Sweat poured down his face, and his hands became sore and blistered. He dug fiercely, calling Rose’s name down the dark hole. He had to get to her. After hours of exhausting work alone, Jack had an idea. He pulled out his phone. With shaking, dirty hands, he took pictures of the deep crack and the spot where he was desperately digging.
