The Boy Made It!
One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.
Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode (一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.
When Gxrylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.
4. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?
A. He got lost. B. He broke his skis.
C. He hurt his eyes. D. He caught a cold.
5. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?
A. He found a shelter. B. He lighted some branches.

C
Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide. While older generations often own property, millions of young adults face increasing rents and unachievable homeownership. A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes.
This crisis originates from decades of policy failure. Since the mid-1990s, house prices have skyrocketed dramatically, widening the gap between property owners and others. Government projects like “Help-to-Buy” intended to assist first-time buyers instead inflated prices further, making housing less accessible. University graduates carry heavy debts from tuition fees exceeding £9, 000 annually since 2010, weakening their savings potential.
The rental market offers little relief. Private renters have jumped from 2. 8 million to 4. 5 million households since 2007, with those aged 25-34 consisting of over a third. Yet renters face instability and exploitation. “No-fault drivings” allow landlords (房东) to end rentings without cause, while rents exceed wage growth. Even social housing renters experience widening inequality compared to homeowners.
Policy responses are emerging but controversial. London Mayor Sadiq Khan proposed a landlord registry and rent control commission to regulate the private sector. Scotland has established “rent pressure zones” to stop increases. The Labour Party advocates abolishing no-fault drivings, arguing that secure right of habitation are essential for dignity.
Ultimately, this is about intergenerational fairness. A functional society cannot thrive when younger citizens bear unreasonable burdens. As one analyst notes: “We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.”
8. What does the official report predict about young adults?
A. Universal elderly poverty. B. Persistent renting difficulties.
C. Long-term housing insecurity. D. Unachievable huge property.
9. What brings about the housing crisis?
A. Stable rental market. B. Students’ reduced debt burden.
C. Decades-long policy failure. D. Consistent policy responses.
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Young adults’ housing security should be guaranteed.
B. Efforts should be made to create a sustainable society.
C. The property of older generations should be passed on.
D. The young should be responsible for intergenerational fairness.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Housing: Pricing out the Young?
B. Policy: Regulating the Private Owners?
C. Landlords: Forced to Accept Rent Hikes?
D. Rental Control: Solving the Renter-landlord Conflicts?
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了英国住房危机造成代际分化,政策失败是根源,需保障年轻人住房安全。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes.(一份最新的官方报告警告称,由于长期缺乏经济适用房,63万35岁以下的人可能在老年时面临无家可归的风险)”可知,官方报告预测年轻人将长期面临住房无保障的问题。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“This crisis originates from decades of policy failure.(这场危机源于几十年的政策失败)”可知,几十年的政策失败导致了住房危机。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.(我们依靠年轻人来维持我们的未来——剥夺他们的住房安全会损害到每个人)”可知,年轻人的住房安全应该得到保障。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中“Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide.(英国的住房危机造成了明显的代际分化)”可知,本文主要讲述了英国的住房危机造成了明显的代际分化,年轻人面临着租房难和买不起房的问题,因此选项A“住房:让年轻人望而却步?”适合作为文章标题。故选A。
D
AI Radiology: Faster, Smarter, and More Accurate
Hospital waiting time for scan results could soon be reduced from days to minutes. A 2025 Stanford study reveals that DeepMedScan, an AI system analyzing CT/MRI images, detects tumors 30% faster than human radiologists (放射科医生) while matching top experts’ 98% accuracy. The system is now used in 40+ EU hospitals, reducing diagnosis delays by up to 80%.
The breakthrough lies in 3D neural mapping. Unlike traditional AI recognizing 2D patterns, DeepMedScan constructs dynamic 3D models of organs: It cross-references scans with global databases — processing 200,000+ historical cases in 0.2 seconds. “It’s like giving each radiologist a super-powered second brain,” explains lead researcher Dr. Aris Thorne.
Critical advantages include identifying micro-lesions under 2 mm — often missed by human eyes — and predicting disease progression. In German trials, the AI detected early-stage pancreatic cancer in 83% of high-risk patients a year before symptoms emerged, enabling life-saving interventions.
Challenges persist, however, Legal frameworks struggle with responsibility for AI misdiagnosis (occurring in 0.7% of cases vs. human 1.2%). Inaccuracy risks also exist; early versions performed poorly on pediatric (小儿科的) scans due to limited child data. Regulatory authorities now enforce “human-AI co-diagnosis” — requiring doctor confirmation for critical cases.
Future upgrades focus on accessibility. Lightweight versions for rural clinics are being tested in India, using smartphone-compatible calculation procedure. As WHO advisor Dr. Priya Sharma notes, “Making this tech widely accessible could prevent 500,000+ annual late-stage cancer deaths globally by 2030.”
12. How does the article present the issue in the first paragraph?
A. By quoting an expert. B. By defining a concept.
C. By providing statistics. D. By presenting classifications.
13. What does the author highlight with super-powered second brain?
A. Replacing radiologists with automated systems.
B. Emphasizing its ultra-fast data processing capacity.
C. Demonstrating its superiority over human intelligence.
D. Promoting commercial sales of medical equipment.
14. What does the author intend to convey in paragraph 4?
A. The potential of AI diagnosis.
B. The inaccuracy of AI diagnosis.
C. The dominance of authorities in AI diagnosis.
D. The necessity of human participation in AI diagnosis.
15. What can be inferred about AI radiology’s future development?
A It will replace doctors. B. It can work with smart phones.
C. It can reach people in far-off areas. D. It can avoid late-stage cancer deaths completely.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了AI放射学更快、更智能且更精准,介绍了其优势、挑战及未来发展。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“A 2025 Stanford study reveals that DeepMedScan, an AI system analyzing CT/MRI images, detects tumors 30% faster than human radiologists (放射科医生) while matching top experts’ 98% accuracy.(2025年斯坦福大学的一项研究显示,分析CT/MRI图像的人工智能系统DeepMedScan检测肿瘤的速度比人类放射科医生快30%,同时准确率与顶级专家相当,达到98%)”可知,文章第一段通过提供统计数据来呈现问题。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“It cross-references scans with global databases — processing 200, 000+ historical cases in 0.2 seconds. “It’s like giving each radiologist a super-powered second brain,” explains lead researcher Dr. Aris Thorne.(它将扫描结果与全球数据库进行交叉参考——在0.2秒内处理20多万个历史病例。“这就像给每个放射科医生一个超级强大的第二大脑,”首席研究员阿里斯·索恩博士解释道)”可知,作者用“超级强大的第二大脑”强调其超快的数据处理能力。故选B。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段中“Regulatory authorities now enforce “human-AI co-diagnosis” — requiring doctor confirmation for critical cases.(监管机构现在强制执行“人机共同诊断”——要求对危急病例进行医生确认)”可知,作者在第四段想传达的是人类参与AI诊断的必要性。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Future upgrades focus on accessibility. Lightweight versions for rural clinics are being tested in India, using smartphone-compatible calculation procedure.(未来的升级重点是可及性。印度正在测试适用于农村诊所的轻量级版本,使用与智能手机兼容的计算程序)”可推知,AI放射学的未来发展可以覆盖偏远地区的人们。故选C。

42. and 43. in

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国篆刻艺术的历史、发展以及其在当今社会的应用和影响力,该艺术于2009年被联合国教科文组织列入非物质文化遗产名录。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:它一直是中国古典艺术不可分割的一部分。根据句意可知,此处表示“一个不可分割的部分”,且inseparable是以元音音素开头的单词,所以应用不定冠词an修饰,表泛指。故填an。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:篆刻艺术可追溯到商朝,已有三千多年的历史。分析句子结构可知,句中已有谓语动词has,所以date应用非谓语动词形式,因其与逻辑主语Seal-engraving art之间是主动关系,所以应用现在分词形式,作定语。故填dating。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:这种艺术形式在秦朝得到了迅速发展,当时人们在器具和文件上刻上自己的名字来表明所有权。分析句子结构可知,空格处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是the Qin dynasty,在从句中作时间状语,所以应用关系副词when引导该从句。故填when。
【39题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:秦始皇统一中国后,他命令一群工匠用玉制作一枚名为“玺”的御印。craftsman为可数名词,由a group of可知,此处应用其复数形式。故填craftsmen。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:直到明朝,艺术家和学者才开始使用刻有自己名字的印章来标记他们的书法和绘画作品的所有权。use sth. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“用某物做某事”,所以此处应用动词不定式to mark作目的状语。故填to mark。
【41题详解】
考查形容词。句意:1904年,西泠印社在不同流派印章艺术家的共同努力下成立,它是中国第一个此类组织。修饰名词efforts应用combine的形容词形式combined作定语,意为“共同的”。故填combined。
【42题详解】
考查连词。句意:1904年,西泠印社在不同流派印章艺术家的共同努力下成立,它是中国第一个此类组织。根据句意可知,空格前后为并列关系,所以应用连词and连接两个分句。故填and。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:如今,印章在官方文件和私人信件中仍被广泛使用。in use是固定搭配,意为“在使用中”。故填in。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:近年来,随着篆刻印章获得全球的赞赏,越来越多的人迷上了这种物品。根据空格前的形容词worldwide可知,此处应用appreciate的名词形式appreciation,作gaining的宾语,且appreciation为不可数名词。故填appreciation。
【45题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,随着篆刻印章获得全球的赞赏,越来越多的人迷上了这种物品。根据时间状语in recent years可知,句子应用现在完成时,主语an increasing number of people为复数,助动词应用have。故填have become。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为 篇完整的短文。
Tom Perry concentrated hard. The rocket competition would begin shortly. He had never lost a contest, but that didn’t calm him. Being on top counted, and he pushed himself to remain there.
The other kids, however, rarely came over to him. No way was he going to let them ignore that he’d win again. Still, he often wondered: why didn’t winning make people like him better?
He opened his toolbox and began assembling (组装) his launch pad. Then he checked his rocket again. It looked perfect — especially compared to the others.
But one caught his eye. A thin boy named Ed lifted it carefully. Its paint shone in the sunlight, and its parts fit perfectly. His critical eye detected that this rocket could beat his.
“Nice rocket,” said the boy nervously. “Thanks,” Tom replied flatly, and then regretted it. “Where do you usually launch it? I’ve never seen you here.” “In the field behind my house.”
“You don’t care for these contests?”
“I never really thought about them. I keep pretty much to myself.”
The announcer explained the competition. Tom barely listened, his gaze constantly drifting to Ed’s rocket. Suddenly his heart did a leap — as Ed lifted the rocket to place it on the launch pad, his fin (翼) had caught against something, pulling it away from the fuselage (机身) — not enough to break it off, just enough to loosen it.
But Ed hadn’t noticed. He glanced back at Tom and gave a thumbs-up. Tom felt a surge of guilt but decided he wasn’t going to say anything. Anyway, it was up to Ed to keep checking his rocket.
Then the competition began. Most rockets gained respectable heights, while a few shot wildly. Tom watched, but the knowledge he had about what was wrong with their rockets soured within him. It was like something he had stolen.
“Ed Malovich will be our next contestant,” the announcer said, interrupting Tom’s daydream. Immediately Ed lifted his rocket and headed to the launch area.

【答案】范文
Without thinking, words flowed from Tom’s mouth, surprising even himself. “Ed, hold on — your fin’s loose!” The cry tore through the air. Ed froze, his smile vanishing as he carefully examined the wing. A gasp rippled through the crowd. Tom was already moving, toolbox in hand. Dropping to his knees beside Ed, he pulled out instant glue. “Here — press it tight!” he instructed, squeezing the tube until his knuckles turned white. Their heads bent close together as Ed held the fin firmly. “Why?” Ed whispered, voice thick with emotion. Tom met his eyes, sunlight warming his shoulders. “Some things,” he said softly, “are more important than winning.”
Minutes later, Ed’s rocket blasted skyward, shooting up as if unstoppable. It pierced the blue like a silver arrow, soaring higher than any other, its parachute blooming like a crimson flower against the clouds. The crowd erupted as Ed leapt up, tears sparkling in his eyes. When Tom’s turn came, his rocket flew true but landed just short of Ed’s mark. Third place was announced, yet Tom’s heart felt strangely full. He found Ed grinning at him through the crowd. “You made this possible,” Ed said, pulling Tom into a quick, fierce hug. As other competitors gathered around them, laughter and cheers filling the air, Tom finally understood — this warmth, this connection, was the victory he’d always missed. Tom realized winning had never felt this good. It wasn’t about being on the top — it was about lifting someone else up. And maybe, just maybe, that was the victory that counted most.

The Boy Made It!
One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a fierce snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, he accidentally turned off the path. Before he knew it, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, water, a phone, or other supplies. He was getting colder by the minute.
Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried not to panic. He thought about all of the survival shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use.
He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed put. The first thing he did was to find shelter from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperature would get very low, which could quickly kill him.
Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a huge mass of snow and dug out a hole in the middle. Then he piled branches on top of himself, like a blanket, to stay as warm as he could.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby stream so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could he huddled (蜷缩) in his cave and slept.
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, because without shelter, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.
Nicholas might not have survived this snowstorm had it not been for TV. He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs. Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. In each episode (一期节目) of Man vs. Wild, Grylls is abandoned in a wild area and has to find his way out.
When Gxrylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.
4. What happened to Nicholas one Sunday afternoon?
A. He got lost. B. He broke his skis.
C. He hurt his eyes. D. He caught a cold.
5. How did Nicholas keep himself warm?
A. He found a shelter. B. He lighted some branches.
C. He kept on skiing. D. He built a snow cave.
6. On Tuesday’ Nicholas .

A. did the right things in the dangerous situation
B. watched Grylls’ TV program regularly
C. created some tips for survival

Britain’s housing crisis has created a distinct generational divide. While older generations often own property, millions of young adults face increasing rents and unachievable homeownership. A recent official report warns that 630, 000 people under 35 may face homelessness in old age due to chronic shortages of affordable homes.
This crisis originates from decades of policy failure. Since the mid-1990s, house prices have skyrocketed dramatically, widening the gap between property owners and others. Government projects like “Help-to-Buy” intended to assist first-time buyers instead inflated prices further, making housing less accessible. University graduates carry heavy debts from tuition fees exceeding £9, 000 annually since 2010, weakening their savings potential.
The rental market offers little relief. Private renters have jumped from 2. 8 million to 4. 5 million households since 2007, with those aged 25-34 consisting of over a third. Yet renters face instability and exploitation. “No-fault drivings” allow landlords (房东) to end rentings without cause, while rents exceed wage growth. Even social housing renters experience widening inequality compared to homeowners.
Policy responses are emerging but controversial. London Mayor Sadiq Khan proposed a landlord registry and rent control commission to regulate the private sector. Scotland has established “rent pressure zones” to stop increases. The Labour Party advocates abolishing no-fault drivings, arguing that secure right of habitation are essential for dignity.
Ultimately, this is about intergenerational fairness. A functional society cannot thrive when younger citizens bear unreasonable burdens. As one analyst notes: “We depend on the young to sustain our future — denying them housing security damages everyone.”
8. What does the official report predict about young adults?
A. Universal elderly poverty. B. Persistent renting difficulties.
C. Long-term housing insecurity. D. Unachievable huge property.
9. What brings about the housing crisis?
A. Stable rental market. B. Students’ reduced debt burden.
C. Decades-long policy failure. D. Consistent policy responses.
10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Young adults’ housing security should be guaranteed.
B. Efforts should be made to create a sustainable society.
C. The property of older generations should be passed on.
D. The young should be responsible for intergenerational fairness.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Housing: Pricing out the Young?
B. Policy: Regulating the Private Owners?
C. Landlords: Forced to Accept Rent Hikes?
D. Rental Control: Solving the Renter-landlord Conflicts?
D
AI Radiology: Faster, Smarter, and More Accurate
Hospital waiting time for scan results could soon be reduced from days to minutes. A 2025 Stanford study reveals that DeepMedScan, an AI system analyzing CT/MRI images, detects tumors 30% faster than human radiologists (放射科医生) while matching top experts’ 98% accuracy. The system is now used in 40+ EU hospitals, reducing diagnosis delays by up to 80%.
The breakthrough lies in 3D neural mapping. Unlike traditional AI recognizing 2D patterns, DeepMedScan constructs dynamic 3D models of organs: It cross-references scans with global databases — processing 200,000+ historical cases in 0.2 seconds. “It’s like giving each radiologist a super-powered second brain,” explains lead researcher Dr. Aris Thorne.
Critical advantages include identifying micro-lesions under 2 mm — often missed by human eyes — and predicting disease progression. In German trials, the AI detected early-stage pancreatic cancer in 83% of high-risk patients a year before symptoms emerged, enabling life-saving interventions.
Challenges persist, however, Legal frameworks struggle with responsibility for AI misdiagnosis (occurring in 0.7% of cases vs. human 1.2%). Inaccuracy risks also exist; early versions performed poorly on pediatric (小儿科的) scans due to limited child data. Regulatory authorities now enforce “human-AI co-diagnosis” — requiring doctor confirmation for critical cases.
Future upgrades focus on accessibility. Lightweight versions for rural clinics are being tested in India, using smartphone-compatible calculation procedure.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为 篇完整的短文。
Tom Perry concentrated hard. The rocket competition would begin shortly. He had never lost a contest, but that didn’t calm him. Being on top counted, and he pushed himself to remain there.
The other kids, however, rarely came over to him. No way was he going to let them ignore that he’d win again. Still, he often wondered: why didn’t winning make people like him better?
He opened his toolbox and began assembling (组装) his launch pad. Then he checked his rocket again. It looked perfect — especially compared to the others.
But one caught his eye. A thin boy named Ed lifted it carefully. Its paint shone in the sunlight, and its parts fit perfectly. His critical eye detected that this rocket could beat his.
“Nice rocket,” said the boy nervously. “Thanks,” Tom replied flatly, and then regretted it. “Where do you usually launch it? I’ve never seen you here.” “In the field behind my house.”
“You don’t care for these contests?”
“I never really thought about them. I keep pretty much to myself.”
The announcer explained the competition. Tom barely listened, his gaze constantly drifting to Ed’s rocket. Suddenly his heart did a leap — as Ed lifted the rocket to place it on the launch pad, his fin (翼) had caught against something, pulling it away from the fuselage (机身) — not enough to break it off, just enough to loosen it.
But Ed hadn’t noticed. He glanced back at Tom and gave a thumbs-up. Tom felt a surge of guilt but decided he wasn’t going to say anything. Anyway, it was up to Ed to keep checking his rocket.
Then the competition began. Most rockets gained respectable heights, while a few shot wildly. Tom watched, but the knowledge he had about what was wrong with their rockets soured within him. It was like something he had stolen.
“Ed Malovich will be our next contestant,” the announcer said, interrupting Tom’s daydream. Immediately Ed lifted his rocket and headed to the launch area.
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。
Paragraph 1: Without thinking, words flowed from Tom’s mouth, surprising even himself.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Minutes later, Ed’s rocket blasted (轰鸣) skyward, shooting up as if unstoppable.
