Why should you thank Ray Tomlinson? You might have never heard of his name before, but do you know that the e-mail you use every day was his“child”? Ray Tomlinson is known as “the father of e-mail”. He was born in New York in 1941. He attended college at the Renaselaer Polytechnic Institute, where he took part in a program with IBM, and in 1963 he received a bachelor(学士) of Science in electrical engineering. In 1971, Ray created the first e-mail system, which allowed people to send messages electronically from the same computer. But he thought that there might also be a way to send messages from different computers, which led to the birth of the e-mail we know now. He chose the @ sign to separate local from global emails in the mailing address. “I used the ‘@’ sign to show that the user was ‘at’ some other hosts rather than being local,”said Ray in an interview. Person to person network email was born and user @ host became the standard for email addresses, as it remainstoday. Ray Tomlinson died at the age of 74. Thanks Ray Tomlinson for inventing the email and putting the @ sign on the map. Though he may not be famous as Mark Zuckerberg or Bill Gates, Ray Tomlinson surely has his place among the geniuses(天才) that gave us the convenience that we call “computer technology”. 36. Who is known as “the father of e-mail”? A. Bill Gates. B. Ray Tomlinson. C. Steve Jobs. D. Mark Zuckerberg. 37. When did Ray create the first e-mail system? A. In 1941. B. In 1963. C. In 1971. D. In 2015. 38. He used the @ sign to show that ________. A. the user was “at” some other hosts rather than being local B. people could send messages from the same computer C. it played a key role in computer technology D. he took part in a program with IBM 39.

With head tilted, and shoulders bent forward he leaned on his trusty stick with each unhurried step. His torn cloth jacket, patched trousers, worn out shoes, and warm personality made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. He stopped, turned with his whole body, and winked at a little girl seated by the door. She flashed a big smile right back at him. A young waitress named Mary watched him walk toward a table by the window. She ran over to him, and said, "Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair." She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she moved the table up close to him, and leaned his stick against the table where he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice he said, "Thank you, Miss. And bless you for your kind gestures." “You're welcome, Sir.” She replied. "And my name is Mary. I'll be back in a moment, and if you need anything at all in the mean time, just wave at me!" After he had finished a hearty meal, Mary brought him the change from his ticket. He left it on the table. She helped him and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, "Come back and see us, Sir!" He turned and nodded a thank-you. "You are very kind." he said softly, smiling. When Mary went to clean his table, she almost fainted. Under his plate she found a business card, and a note scribbled on a napkin. Under the napkin was a one-hundred-dollar bill. The note on the napkin read, "Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you." The man she had waited on was the owner of the restaurant where she worked. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees had ever seen him in person. 41. The old man left $ 100 under the napkin because he ____． A. was grateful for Mary's kindness B. wanted to encourage Mary to do more good deeds C. appreciated Mary's kindness and work attitude D. thought highly of the tasty meal in the restaurant 42. What do we know about Mary and the old man? A. Mary knew who the old man was from the note． B. Mary recognized the old man when she served him． C. The old man intended to have Mary as his secretary． D. It was the first time that Mary had seen her boss in the flesh． 43. It can be inferred that the old man went to the restaurant to ____． A. have a good meal B. enjoy good service C. have an on-site visit D. show his generosity 44. The passage is developed mainly by ____． A. following the order of space B. following the order of events C. making comparisons D. providing examples 45. The best title of the passage would be ____． A. Employer and Employee B. The Secret of Happiness C. A Gift from the Manager D. Good Service in the Restaurant C An electrical generator (发电机) built into a backpack can make walking more efficient by taking the pressure off leg muscles, while also harvesting a small amount of electrical power. The device reduces the energy required to walk by more than 3 percent and could also charge small electrical devices. Experts have now created an entirely passive system that reduces the effort required to walk. The design resists the forward swing of the leg during a step and slows it before the foot strikes the ground, something that usually requires movement of leg muscles. The device weighs 1.3 kilograms and fits into a small backpack, while two thin cables run from there down to ankles with a belt tied around the legs. As the foot swings forward during a step, this cable resists slightly by spinning an electrical generator. Currently, that generator doesn’t even power the small amount of electronics in the back-pack. But with more small improvements, it will not only do that but also be able to charge other small devices, such as a smartphone. “It feels pretty natural to walk with the device within a couple of minutes. If you were to walk with the device or go for a hike with it, at the end of the day, you’d feel less tired,” a user says. “This could really help hikers that are walking all day, or even mail carriers or nurses at the end of their shift to be a lot less tired.” Current tests have focused on walking on the flat ground, but future experiments will show efficiency gains in walking up and down hills and at different speeds. “In the following time, we’ll also be able to try assisting in beating some records for the marathon,” an expert says. “This is for sure.” 46. What’s the main purpose of inventing the device? A. To make walking easier. B. To make legs move regularly. C To get rid of mental tiredness. D. To generate electricity for phones. 47. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The aim of the design. B. The origin of the system. C. The passive movement of the leg. D. The working principle of the device. 48. What does the author think of the further improvement of the present generator? A. It is delayed. B. It is costly. C. It is difficult. D. It is possible. 49. In what way will the device be tested next? A. Hiking. B. Nursing. C. Climbing and running. D. Walking and mailing. 50. In which column of a magazine does the text most probably appear? A. Health and sport. B. Illustration and design. C. Science and technology. D. Exercise and entertainment. D London’s rainy streets shone with neon lights as Nina scanned through WeChat, watching her family in Shanghai prepare traditional rice dumplings. Missing the warmth of their reunion, she sighed. Then an idea struck her: what if she could bring the festival spirit to her flat? That evening, Nina built a DIY electronic lantern.Using augmented reality (AR) software, she added digital flames that looked real to the paper decorations. When her father watched her show the lantern online, his voice shook with pride. “Your creation connects our worlds!” he said. The next day, her university classmates gathered. As Nina showed how waving a hand made a dragon appear and spin around — she realized something special was happening. Lucas was amazed by how old traditions and new tech mixed together, while Chinese student Mei shared stories about her family’s lantern-making secrets. The following morning, Nina spent the day improving the AR software,adding more customizable (可定制的) elements like different sounds and designs. She even added a fun tool where people could record voices that played when the lantern turned on. By evening, Nina’s virtual (虚拟的) lantern event had become a worldwide activity. Students from Berlin, Sydney, and New York joined, adding their own cultural styles to the digital lanterns. Through Nina’s AR app, the London sky lit up with moving dragons, cherry blossoms, and stars. As she explored the online event, Nina noticed a message from her grandfather. He sent a photo of their hometown village, where real silk lanterns floated alongside digital ones. “Although it lacks the smell of real silk and candle wax, your lantern’s light carries the same hope our family believed in. The old and new can coexist,” he wrote. “Your light has shown us the way.” Nina smiled, understanding finally that festivals aren’t about being perfect, but about bringing people together. Nina realized this was just the beginning. The AR lantern project had started conversations about saving traditions in the digital age. Universities from different countries were now reaching out, interested in working with her on festivals mixing tech and culture. As rain continued to fall on London, Nina felt a sense of purpose she’d never experienced before. The festival spirit she’d sought had found her, turned into something without borders and always changing. 51. What did Nina create to connect with her family? A. A traditional Chinese dress. B. A video call software. C. An electronic lantern. D. A handwritten letter. 52. How did Nina’s classmates react to her AR lantern? A. They were indifferent. B. They were impressed. C. They thought it was too traditional. D. They found it difficult to use. 53. What does Nina’s grandfather imply by saying “the old and new can coexist” in the context? A. Traditional materials should replace digital technology. B. Cultural heritage can adapt to modern creations. C. Younger generations must stop using digital tools. D. Physical lanterns are better than virtual ones. 54. Which aspect of the AR lantern project is NOT mentioned as a cultural impact? A. Helping students from different countries work together. B. Starting discussions about technology’s role in tradition. C. Enabling global participation in local festivals. D. Keeping family-specific skills private. 55. What is the main message conveyed through Nina’s story? A. Traditional festivals require strict protection. B Technology can better help cultural connections. C. London has better tech resources than Shanghai. D. Young people should give up old traditions. 五、阅读表达（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读表达 Once a father and son went to the kite flying festival: The young son became very happy seeing the sky filled with colorful kites. He too asked his father to get him a kite and a thread with a roller so he can fly a kite too. So, the father went to the shop at the park where the festival was being held. He purchased kites and a roll of thread for his son. His son started to fly a kite. Soon his kite reached high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Father, it seems that the thread is holding up a kite from flying higher, if we break it, it will be free and will go flying even higher. Can we break it?” So, the father cut the thread from a roller. The kite started to go a little higher. That made the son very happy. But then, slowly, the-kite started to come down. And, soon-it-fell down on the terrace (露台) of the unknown building. The young son was surprised to see this. He had cut the kite loose of its thread so it can fly higher, but instead, it fell down. He asked his father, “Father, I thought that by cutting off the thread, the kite would be free to fly higher. But why did it fall down?” The father explained, “Son, at the height of life that we live in, we often think that some things we are tied with and they are preventing us from going further higher. The thread was not holding the kite from going higher, but it was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down and when the wind picked up, you helped the kite go up higher in a proper direction through the thread. And when we cut the thread, it fell down without the support you were providing to the kite through the thread.” The son realized his mistake. Sometimes we feel that we can progress quickly and reach to the newer heights in our life if we were not tied up with our family, our home. But, we fail to realize that our family, our loved ones help us survive the tough time in our lives with their support and encourage us to reach higher heights in our life. They are not holding us, but are supporting us. Never let go of them. 56. Why did the son want to cut the thread?

With head tilted, and shoulders bent forward he leaned on his trusty stick with each unhurried step. His torn cloth jacket, patched trousers, worn out shoes, and warm personality made him stand out from the usual Saturday morning breakfast crowd. He stopped, turned with his whole body, and winked at a little girl seated by the door. She flashed a big smile right back at him. A young waitress named Mary watched him walk toward a table by the window. She ran over to him, and said, "Here, Sir. Let me give you a hand with that chair." She pulled the chair away from the table. Steadying him with one arm, she helped him move in front of the chair, and get comfortably seated. Then she moved the table up close to him, and leaned his stick against the table where he could reach it. In a soft, clear voice he said, "Thank you, Miss. And bless you for your kind gestures." “You're welcome, Sir.” She replied. "And my name is Mary. I'll be back in a moment, and if you need anything at all in the mean time, just wave at me!" After he had finished a hearty meal, Mary brought him the change from his ticket. He left it on the table. She helped him and walked with him to the front door. Holding the door open for him, she said, "Come back and see us, Sir!" He turned and nodded a thank-you. "You are very kind." he said softly, smiling. When Mary went to clean his table, she almost fainted. Under his plate she found a business card, and a note scribbled on a napkin. Under the napkin was a one-hundred-dollar bill. The note on the napkin read "Dear Mary, I respect you very much, and you respect yourself too. It shows by the way you treat others. You have found the secret of happiness. Your kind gestures will shine through those who meet you." The man she had waited on was the owner of the restaurant where she worked. This was the first time that she, or any of his employees had ever seen him in person. 41.

The device reduces the energy required to walk by more than 3 percent and could also charge small electrical devices. Experts have now created an entirely passive system that reduces the effort required to walk. The design resists the forward swing of the leg during a step and slows it before the foot strikes the ground, something that usually requires movement of leg muscles. The device weighs 1.3 kilograms and fits into a small backpack, while two thin cables run from there down to ankles with a belt tied around the legs. As the foot swings forward during a step, this cable resists slightly by spinning an electrical generator. Currently, that generator doesn’t even power the small amount of electronics in the back-pack. But with more small improvements, it will not only do that but also be able to charge other small devices, such as a smartphone. “It feels pretty natural to walk with the device within a couple of minutes. If you were to walk with the device or go for a hike with it, at the end of the day, you’d feel less tired,” a user says. “This could really help hikers that are walking all day, or even mail carriers or nurses at the end of their shift to be a lot less tired.” Current tests have focused on walking on the flat ground, but future experiments will show efficiency gains in walking up and down hills and at different speeds. “In the following time, we’ll also be able to try assisting in beating some records for the marathon,” an expert says. “This is for sure.” 46. What’s the main purpose of inventing the device? A. To make walking easier. B. To make legs move regularly. C. To get rid of mental tiredness. D. To generate electricity for phones. 47. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The aim of the design. B. The origin of the system. C. The passive movement of the leg. D. The working principle of the device. 48. What does the author think of the further improvement of the present generator? A. It is delayed. B. It is costly. C. It is difficult. D. It is possible. 49. In what way will the device be tested next? A. Hiking. B. Nursing. C. Climbing and running. D. Walking and mailing. 50. In which column of a magazine does the text most probably appear? A. Health and sport. B. Illustration and design. C. Science and technology. D. Exercise and entertainment. 【答案】46. A 47. D 48. D 49. C 50. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了专家们发明了一种装有完全被动系统的设备，能使人在走路时感到更轻松，甚至通过改进之后，能为小型设备充电，并接下来将在登山和跑步方面进行测试。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Experts have now created an entirely passive system that reduces the effort required to walk. The design resists the forward swing of the leg during a step and slows it before the foot strikes the ground, something that usually requires movement of leg muscles. (专家们现在发明了一种完全被动的系统，可以减少走路所需的努力。这种设计可以抵抗在走路时腿的向前摆动，并在脚着地前减缓这种摆动，着地通常需要腿部肌肉的运动。)”可知发明这种装备的目的是为了减少行走所需的努力，即让走路变得更轻松；故选A项。 【47题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“Experts have now created an entirely passive system that reduces the effort required to walk. The design resists the forward swing of the leg during a step and slows it before the foot strikes the ground, something that usually requires movement of leg muscles. The device weighs 1.3 kilograms and fits into a small backpack, while two thin cables run from there down to ankles with a belt tied around the legs. As the foot swings forward during a step, this cable resists slightly by spinning an electrical generator. (专家们现在发明了一种完全被动的系统，可以减少走路所需的努力。这种设计可以抵抗在走路时腿的向前摆动，并在脚着地前减缓这种摆动，着地通常需要腿部肌肉的运动。该装置重1.3公斤，可以放入一个小背包中，两根细缆绳从背包一直延伸到脚踝，腿上系着一条腰带。脚在一个步骤中向前摆动时，这根缆绳通过旋转发电机来轻微抵抗。)”可知，文章第二段介绍了这种装置的工作原理，即可以抵抗在走路时腿的向前摆动，并在脚着地前减缓这种摆动；故选D项。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Currently, that generator doesn’t even power the small amount of electronics in the back-pack. But with more small improvements, it will not only do that but also be able to charge other small devices, such as a smartphone. (目前，这个发电机甚至不能为背包里的少量电子设备供电。但通过更多的小改进，它不仅可以做到这一点，还可以为其他小型设备充电，比如智能手机。)”可知，通过小的改进，该装置不仅可以做到为背包里的少量电子设备充电，还可以为其他小型设备充电，故推知作者认为对当前的发电机进一步改进是有可能的；故选D项。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Current tests have focused on walking on the flat ground, but future experiments will show efficiency gains in walking up and down hills and at different speeds. “In the following time, we’ll also be able to try assisting in beating some records for the marathon,” an expert says. “This is for sure.” (目前的测试主要集中在平地上行走，但未来的实验将显示在不同速度下上山下山时的效率提高。一位专家表示:“在接下来的时间里，我们还将尝试帮助打破马拉松的一些记录。”“这是肯定的。”)”可知，接下来该设备将显示在以不同速度上下山时的效率提高和尝试帮助打破马拉松的一些记录，由此可知，该设备将进行登山和跑步方面的测试；故选C项。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讲述了专家们发明了一种装有完全被动系统的设备，能使人在走路时感到更轻松，甚至通过改进之后，能为小型设备充电，并接下来将在登山和跑步方面进行测试，故这属于一篇与科技发明有关的文章，推知其最可能出现在杂志的科学技术专栏中；故选C项。 D London’s rainy streets shone with neon lights as Nina scanned through WeChat, watching her family in Shanghai prepare traditional rice dumplings. Missing the warmth of their reunion, she sighed. Then an idea struck her: what if she could bring the festival spirit to her flat? That evening, Nina built a DIY electronic lantern.Using augmented reality (AR) software, she added digital flames that looked real to the paper decorations. When her father watched her show the lantern online, his voice shook with pride. “Your creation connects our worlds!” he said. The next day, her university classmates gathered. As Nina showed how waving a hand made a dragon appear and spin around — she realized something special was happening. Lucas was amazed by how old traditions and new tech mixed together, while Chinese student Mei shared stories about her family’s lantern-making secrets. The following morning, Nina spent the day improving the AR software,adding more customizable (可定制的) elements like different sounds and designs. She even added a fun tool where people could record voices that played when the lantern turned on. By evening, Nina’s virtual (虚拟的) lantern event had become a worldwide activity. Students from Berlin, Sydney, and New York joined, adding their own cultural styles to the digital lanterns. Through Nina’s AR app, the London sky lit up with moving dragons, cherry blossoms, and stars. As she explored the online event, Nina noticed a message from her grandfather. He sent a photo of their hometown village, where real silk lanterns floated alongside digital ones. “Although it lacks the smell of real silk and candle wax, your lantern’s light carries the same hope our family believed in. The old and new can coexist,” he wrote. “Your light has shown us the way.” Nina smiled, understanding finally that festivals aren’t about being perfect, but about bringing people together. Nina realized this was just the beginning. The AR lantern project had started conversations about saving traditions in the digital age. Universities from different countries were now reaching out, interested in working with her on festivals mixing tech and culture.

He too asked his father to get him a kite and a thread with a roller so he can fly a kite too. So, the father went to the shop at the park where the festival was being held. He purchased kites and a roll of thread for his son. His son started to fly a kite. Soon, his kite reached high up in the sky. After a while, the son said, “Father, it seems that the thread is holding up a kite from flying higher, if we break it, it will be free and will go flying even higher. Can we break it?” So, the father cut the thread from a roller. The kite started to go a little higher. That made the son very happy. But then, slowly, the-kite started to come down. And, soon-it-fell down on the terrace (露台) of the unknown building. The young son was surprised to see this. He had cut the kite loose of its thread so it can fly higher, but instead, it fell down. He asked his father, “Father, I thought that by cutting off the thread, the kite would be free to fly higher. But why did it fall down?” The father explained, “Son, at the height of life that we live in, we often think that some things we are tied with and they are preventing us from going further higher. The thread was not holding the kite from going higher, but it was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down and when the wind picked up, you helped the kite go up higher in a proper direction through the thread. And when we cut the thread, it fell down without the support you were providing to the kite through the thread.” The son realized his mistake. Sometimes we feel that we can progress quickly and reach to the newer heights in our life if we were not tied up with our family, our home. But, we fail to realize that our family, our loved ones help us survive the tough time in our lives with their support and encourage us to reach higher heights in our life. They are not holding us, but are supporting us. Never let go of them. 56. Why did the son want to cut the thread?

(no more than 10 words) ______________________________________________________________ 60. What have you learned from this lesson? (no more than 20 words) ______________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Because he thought the kite could fly higher without it. 57. Preventing/Stopping. 58. The kite didn’t fly higher, as he thought, but fell down. 59. To help the kite stay higher in the wind. 60. Open. (We should keep in touch with our family all the time, because they are our strong support.) 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲述了一对父子通过放风筝感悟了一些人生道理。儿子把线剪了之后，结果风筝反而落地了，父亲告诉儿子一个道理，我们经常认为我们身上绑着的东西会阻止我们走得更高，其实那些看似阻止我们的东西在支撑着我们．如同放风筝一样，线并没有阻止风筝飞得更高，而是帮助它在风减慢时保持更高的位置． 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“After a while, the son said, “Father, it seems that the thread is holding up a kite from flying higher, if we break it, it will be free and will go flying even higher. Can we break it?”(过了一会儿，儿子说：‘爸爸，好像那根线拴住了一只风筝，不让它飞得更高，如果我们把它剪断，它就会自由，会飞得更高。我们能打破它吗？’)”可知，儿子想剪掉风筝线，是因为他认为没有它风筝也能飞得更高。故填Because he thought the kite could fly higher without it. 【57题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据第二段中划线部分下文“if we break it, it will be free and will go flying even higher. Can we break it?(如果我们把它剪断，它就会自由，会飞得更高。我们能打破它吗？)”可知，儿子认为剪掉风筝线，风筝会飞得更高，这说明他认为是风筝线阻止风筝飞得更高，故划线短语“holding up”意为“阻止”，故填Preventing/Stopping. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“But then, slowly, the-kite started to come down. And, soon-it-fell down on the terrace (露台) of the unknown building. The young son was surprised to see this. He had cut the kite loose of its thread so it can fly higher, but instead, it fell down. (但后来，风筝慢慢地开始落下来。而且，很快它就掉到了那个不知名建筑物的露台上。小儿子看到这一幕，大吃一惊。他把风筝的线剪断了，这样它就可以飞得更高，但风筝却掉了下来。)”可知，儿子惊讶于风筝并没有像他想的那样飞得更高，而是落了下来。故填The kite didn’t fly higher, as he thought, but fell down. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“The thread was not holding the kite from going higher, but it was helping it stay higher when the wind slowed down and when the wind picked up, you helped the kite go up higher in a proper direction through the thread. (线并没有阻止风筝飞得更高，但是当风减弱时，它可以帮助风筝保持在更高的位置，当风增强时，你可以通过线帮助风筝以正确的方向飞得更高。)”可知，据父亲说，风筝线的用途是帮助风筝在风中保持更高的位置。故填To help the kite stay higher in the wind. 【60题详解】 开放试题，言之有理即可。根据最后一段“Sometimes we feel that we can progress quickly and reach to the newer heights in our life if we were not tied up with our family, our home. But, we fail to realize that our family, our loved ones help us survive the tough time in our lives with their support and encourage us to reach higher heights in our life. They are not holding us, but are supporting us. Never let go of them.(有时我们觉得，如果我们不被家人、家所束缚，我们就能快速进步并达到生活的新高度。但是，我们没有意识到，我们的家人、我们所爱的人在他们的支持下帮助我们度过了生活中的艰难时期，并鼓励我们达到生活的更高高度。他们不是在束缚我们，而是在支持我们。永远不要放开他们。)”可知，从文中我们可以学到的是我们应该时刻与家人保持联系，因为他们是我们坚强的后盾。故填We should keep in touch with our family all the time, because they are our strong support. 六、作文（满分25分） 61. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李津，你的英国朋友Chris今日来信询问你的近况，请根据以下提示用英语给他回复一封邮件。 （1）简要介绍自己的学习和生活； （2）告知你已成为今年秋天在天津举办的上海合作组织峰会的一名志愿者，并介绍为此所做的准备（如提高外语水平，深入了解天津等）； （3）希望他有机会重访天津。 注意： 1．词数不少于100； 2．可适当加入细节，是内容充实、行文连贯。 参考词汇：上海合作组织峰会：Shanghai Cooperation Organization Summit（SCO summit） Dear Chris, Thank you for your email! ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】 Dear Chris, Thank you for your email!
