However, local advertising holds the key to success. It’s more than promotion; it’s about connecting with nearby customers. A solid local marketing strategy acts like a guide, helping navigate tools such as Google Local Services Ads to boost visibility, even against larger businesses. Here are some common types of local advertising. Types Media Form Pros and Cons Online Advertising Put on websites, social media accounts, and other online marketing platforms. — Precisely target online users, especially young consumers by location, interests, and behavior. Besides, budget flexibility of the models is often controllable — Overuse of it leads to banner blindness or audience burnout. Outdoor Advertising Placed in public spaces like billboards, transit shelters, and posters. — High-traffic locations guarantee frequent exposure. Besides, its 24/7 exposure can reach a wider audience. — Initial investment often comes at steep costs. Broadcast Advertising Aired commercials on radio and TV stations. — As a comparatively traditional media, it can quickly engage large senior or middle-aged local audiences. — Production and airtime often drain budgets fast, and digital platforms are competing for audience, thus reducing ad views. Print Advertising Published in newspapers, magazines, flyers, brochures, and other marketing materials. — Hyper-local reach makes it ideal and trustworthy for local specific communities or neighborhoods as a physical reference — Costs from design, printing, and distribution can be expensive, especially for color ads. Small businesses can immensely benefit from a local advertising strategy as it enables them to connect directly with their target audience in their local community. It helps them build brand recognition, boost visibility and drive sales. Small businesses can also apply advertising strategies like influencer marketing to achieve their marketing goals. 1. What is a key factor for a small business success? A. Making use of local advertising. B. Banking on modern advertising tools. C. Conducting thorough market research. D. Avoiding competition with larger businesses. 2. Which strategy suits best for a company with a tight budget? A. Online Advertising. B. Outdoor Advertising. C. Broadcast Advertising. D. Print Advertising. 3. Why is local advertising beneficial for small businesses? A. It reduces production expenses. B. It creates a wider influencer market. C. It guarantees nationwide popularity. D. It builds stronger bonds with customers. 【答案】1. A 2. A 3.

When I first met him, Mr. Dong was in his studio, employing his brush with great skill. His great work, Poem in Clerical Script, left me in awe. The strong strokes (线条) and the square yet varied outline of Chinese characters all demonstrated his mastery. “Would you like to learn?” Mr. Dong asked with a smile. I nodded excitedly. And so, I became his student. In the days that followed, Mr. Dong patiently taught me the techniques of painting and calligraphy. He emphasized the importance of integrating an ancient charm in our works, using bright colors and mastering the use of ink. Whenever I had questions, he always explained tirelessly. I love painting plum blossoms (梅花) and have faithfully followed his brilliant style. For my painting entitled Lady smelling the plum blossoms, I have heeded his instructions to outline the flowers with light ink and draw the pistils (花蕊) with thick dark ink dots. The plum blossoms are arranged in alternating layers of denseness and thinness. I have drawn a lady wearing her hair in double knots under the flowers. She is picking up a branch to smell the sweet fragrance, with a smile playing around her eyes. I have also applied color to this lady, so that she stands out vividly in the blossoming branches of the dark plum trees. As seasons passed, my skills improved steadily under Mr. Dong’s careful instructions. Every time I made a breakthrough in my work, I would think of his teachings. He not only passed on artistic skills but also taught me life lessons. Now, whenever I pick up a brush to paint, I’m reminded of Mr. Dong’s earnest instructions. His teachings, both by word and by example, and his care like a strict father and kind teacher, are deeply carved in my heart. I know that this debt of gratitude to my teacher will accompany me throughout my life, inspiring me to continue advancing on my artistic journey. 4. To which art form does Poem in Clerical Script belong? A. Carving. B. Calligraphy. C. Painting. D. Literature. 5. What did Mr. Dong prioritize in his teaching? A. Modern style. B. Historical grace. C. Abstract forms. D. Realistic details. 6. What can we infer about the painting of Lady smelling the plum blossoms? A. It is dominated by bright and vivid colors. B. It features various ink shades with the lady in color. C. The plum blossoms are mainly painted in a single layer. D. The lady looks regretful without any facial expressions. 7. What is Mr. Dong like according to the last paragraph? A. Courageous. B. Stubborn. C. Devoted. D. Independent. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者跟随董老师学习书画的经历。作者初见董老师时被其书法作品所震撼，随后成为董老师的学生，学习书画技巧。在董老师的耐心教导下，作者技艺日渐精进，并且对董老师的教导铭记于心，感激之情伴随一生。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“His great work, Poem in Clerical Script, left me in awe. The strong strokes (线条) and the square yet varied outline of Chinese characters all demonstrated his mastery.(他的杰作《隶书诗》让我叹为观止。刚劲有力的笔画和中国汉字方正而多变的轮廓都显示出他的精湛技艺)”可知，《隶书诗》属于书法艺术。故选B。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“He emphasized the importance of integrating an ancient charm in our works, using bright colors and mastering the use of ink.(他强调了在我们的作品中融入古老魅力的重要性，使用鲜艳的色彩并掌握墨汁的使用)”可知，董老师在教学中重视的是融入古老魅力的历史性优雅。故选B。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第四段中“For my painting entitled Lady smelling the plum blossoms, I have heeded his instructions to outline the flowers with light ink and draw the pistils (花蕊) with thick dark ink dots. The plum blossoms are arranged in alternating layers of denseness and thinness. I have drawn a lady wearing her hair in double knots under the flowers.

Both birds and humans arrange their vocal (声音的) expressions in structured ways. In human speech, words follow specific grammatical rules, while birds sing in organized syllabic (音节的) patterns. One key aspect of both birdsong and human language is context dependence. In English, for example, the phrase “flies like” can have different meanings depending on what follows. For instance, while “time flies like an arrow” is a statement about time, “fruit flies like bananas” is one about insects and food. If we mix these up — “time flies like bananas” — the meaning becomes nonsensical. The research team analyzed previously recorded songs from six Bengalese birds, each of which sings 7 to 15 syllables per series. Their AI model mapped series of events by tracking what came next based on past occurrences. Imagine a flowchart where each syllable leads to a range of possible next syllables, with probabilities assigned to each shift. Using this approach, the team generated a range of possible models for each bird’s song, gradually refining (改进) them to ensure they only produced series that actually exist in the bird’s natural surroundings. The final models accurately reflected each bird’s real singing patterns while identifying which syllables were context-dependent. The results showed that all six birds displayed context dependence in their songs, while the degree of it varied between individuals. It supports the idea that birds listen to themselves and adjust their vocal patterns based on what they hear, much like how humans refine speech and grammar while learning a language. To explore this deeply, the researchers studied birds that could not hear their own songs. The results were striking. These birds showed a dramatic reduction in context-dependent syllables, suggesting that hearing feedback is crucial in shaping how birds refine their songs. So this study raises questions about how truly unique human language is if birds follow similar rules. 8. What feature do birdsong and human language have in common? A. Meaning depends on context. B. Words follow grammar rules. C. Both sound with syllable patterns. D. Meaning changes based on prediction. 9. What is the research method of the team? A. Bird watching. B. Trend spotting. C. Pattern modeling. D. Interview analysis. 10. What does the underlined “this” refer to in paragraph 5? A. Birds depend on context randomly. B. Birds change their ideas like humans. C. Birds listen to others’ songs to form theirs. D. Birds refine vocal expressions like humans. 11. What is the best title of the passage? A. The Magic Patterns of Language B. Insights into Birdsong Complexity C. AI Unlocks Birdsong’s Contextual Secrets D. AI Connections: Birds and Humans United 【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了科学家研发出一种人工智能驱动的建模方法，用于模仿鸟类鸣唱。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“One key aspect of both birdsong and human language is context dependence. (鸟类鸣唱和人类语言的一个关键方面是语境依赖)”以及后文例子可知，鸟类鸣唱和人类语言的共同特征是意义依赖于语境(context)。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Their AI model mapped series of events by tracking what came next based on past occurrences... Using this approach, the team generated a range of possible models for each bird’s song... (他们的人工智能模型通过根据过去的情况追踪接下来会发生什么来绘制一系列事件……用这种方法，研究小组为每只鸟的鸣唱生成了一系列可能的模型……)”可知，研究团队使用的是建立模型的方法。故选C项。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“It supports the idea that birds listen to themselves and adjust their vocal patterns based on what they hear, much like how humans refine speech and grammar while learning a language. (这支持了这样一种观点，即鸟类会倾听自己的声音，并根据听到的内容调整它们的发声模式，这很像人类在学习语言时完善言语和语法的方式)”可知，第五段第一句划线的this是指鸟类像人类一样完善发声表达。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段“Scientists have developed an AI-powered modeling method that mimics (模仿) how birds produce songs, similar to how large language models like ChatGPT generate human sentences.(科学家们开发了一种人工智能建模方法，模仿鸟类如何唱歌，类似于像ChatGPT这样的大型语言模型如何生成人类句子)”可知，文章主要围绕科学家利用人工智能建模方法研究鸟类鸣唱，揭示其语境相关的奥秘展开。“人工智能破解鸟类鸣唱的语境奥秘”能准确概括文章主旨。故选C项。 D In 1785, English philosopher Jeremy Bentham designed a perfect castle where rooms circle a tower, from which an unseen guard can observe any people at will. People have to assume they’re constantly observed and behave accordingly. The secret of the castle control: the people have internalized the surveillance (监控) mechanism themselves. Bentham’s design feels so relevant in our digital age of algorithms (算法) and social media, when we frequently feel watched, with no way to escape. How being watched affects us is the first topic that has been studied in psychology. Decades of studies have shown that we behave differently when we are watched. On a conscious level, we become more prosocial, meaning we’re more likely to give and less likely to cheat or litter. Even theft or littering could be reduced merely by posting pictures of eyes. Seymour, a psychologist from the University of Technology Sydney, puts this down to our concern with reputation and social consequences. This led to the idea that surveillance could be used for social good, echoing Bentham’s methods. Being watched also affects cognitive (认知) functions, but negatively. One study found that participants performed worse on a working memory task with people looking at them — a direct gaze grabs participants’ attention and distracts them from a given task. A series of experiments have demonstrated that bringing more surveillance into workplaces or educational settings — usually an attempt to boost productivity — could actually be counterproductive. Surveillance profoundly impacts our brain’s unconscious processing. Seymour says it makes our social thinking and survival instincts work too hard. This makes us worry about everyone’s mental health. Always being watched makes us more aware of people around us, keeping us on edge and ready to act. “We didn’t have as much surveillance and social connection 50 years ago, so it’s a new societal context we’re adapting to. We need to find ways to balance the benefits of connectivity with the drawbacks of constant surveillance,” Seymour remarks. 12. Why does the author mention the castle in the first paragraph? A. To explain a concept of psychology. B. To express his respect to Bentham. C. To illustrate its working mechanism. D. To present a picture of surveillance. 13. What urges people to become more prosocial? A. Their desire to keep a good image. B. Their trust from the family. C. Their attachment to the community. D. Their concern with education. 14. How might a student perform during a monitored online test? A. Ignoring the existence of the webcams. B. Improving his thinking ability thoroughly. C. Having a lower performance than expected. D. Completing the test with fueled confidence. 15. What does Seymour suggest about the society full of surveillance? A. Cut interactions to ease stress. B. Boost surveillance for connections. C. Ignore the impact of surveillance. D. Weigh connectivity against surveillance. 【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要探讨了被监视对人们行为和认知等方面的影响。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Bentham's design feels so relevant in our digital age of algorithms (算法) and social media, when we frequently feel watched, with no way to escape. (边沁的设计在我们这个充斥着算法和社交媒体的数字时代显得如此贴切，此时我们经常感觉被监视，却无处可逃)”可知，作者在第一段中提到城堡(圆形监狱)，是为了解释一个心理学概念，即人们在被监视的情况下会内部化监控机制，从而改变自己的行为。此外，第二段探讨了被监视如何影响行为的心理学研究。故选A项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Seymour, a psychologist from the University of Technology Sydney, puts this down to our concern with reputation and social consequences. (悉尼科技大学的心理学家西摩将此归因于我们对声誉和社会后果的关注)”可知，人们想要保持良好形象的渴望促使他们变得更亲社会。故选A项。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Being watched also affects cognitive (认知) functions, but negatively. One study found that participants performed worse on a working memory task with people looking at them — a direct gaze grabs participants' attention and distracts them from given tasks. A series of experiments have demonstrated that bringing more surveillance into workplaces or educational settings — usually an attempt to boost productivity — could actually be counterproductive. (被监视也会对认知功能产生负面影响。一项研究发现，当有人看着参与者时，他们在工作记忆任务上的表现更差，直接的注视会吸引参与者的注意力，使他们从给定的任务中分心。一系列实验表明，在工作场所或教育环境中引入更多的监控，通常是为了提高生产率，实际上可能适得其反)”可知，学生在受监控的在线测试中可能会表现得比预期差。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“We need to find ways to balance the benefits of connectivity with the drawbacks of constant surveillance,” Seymour remarks. (西摩说：“我们需要找到方法来平衡连接的好处和持续监控的缺点”)”可知，西摩建议在这个充满监控的社会中，要权衡连接与监控的利弊。故选D项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How Music Reshapes the Emotional Lens of Memory Have you ever noticed how a particular song can bring back a flood of memories? Maybe it’s the tune that was playing during your first dance, or the melody of a memorable road trip. ____16____ However, recent research suggests that music may do more than just trigger (触发) memories — it might even change how you remember them. In the research, scientists found that listening to music can change how you feel about what you remember. ____17____ The areas of your brain responsible for emotion and memory also become active. The hippocampus (海马体), which is essential for storing memories, works closely with the brain’s emotional center. This is why certain songs are deeply emotional. Research noted that music played during recall might introduce new emotional elements into the original memory. Apparently, when positive music is played, the participants surveyed were more likely to combine new emotional elements with the story that matched the mood of the music. ____18____ Even when the music is no longer playing, musical memory remains. Memories may be more flexible than previously thought and could be influenced by external auditory canal (外耳道) during recall. Such findings provide exciting implications for daily life and for medicine. ____19____ The music you listen to while going about your daily routines might be subtly shaping how you remember those experiences in the future. The same goes for medicine. ____20____ It opens a new path for exploring music-based interventions in treatments for mental health conditions. The next time you put on a favorite playlist, consider how it might be coloring not just your current mood but also your future recollections as well. A. Daily life applications are inviting. B. When listening, more than your ears are engaged. C. So cheerful music boosts memory in a bright perspective. D. The reason why music can evoke emotions remains unknown. E. It suffers when people find those memories fade away with time. F. For people with depression, music works in a more positive light. G. People often think of these musical memories as such fixed shots of the past. 【答案】16. G 17. B 18. C 19. A 20. F 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出音乐不仅能触发记忆，还会改变记忆感受，回忆时音乐会注入新情感元素，此发现对日常生活和医学有启示，也影响未来回忆。 【16题详解】 根据下文“However, recent research suggests that music may do more than just trigger ( 触发) memories — it might even change how you remember them.(然而，最近的研究表明，音乐可能不仅仅是触发记忆——它甚至可能改变你记忆的方式)”可知，新研究表明音乐甚至可以改变记忆方式。由此推测，空处陈述人们对音乐记忆的普遍看法。G项“人们通常认为这些音乐记忆是过去的固定镜头。”符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 根据下文“The areas of your brain responsible for emotion and memory also become active.(大脑中负责情绪和记忆的区域也变得活跃起来)”可知，听音乐时不仅只有耳朵参与了，大脑的部分区域也参与了。B项“听音乐时，参与其中的远不止你的耳朵。”符合语境，引出下文。故选B。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Apparently, when positive music is played, the participants surveyed were more likely to combine new emotional elements with the story that matched the mood of the music.(显然，当播放积极向上的音乐时，参与调查的受试者更有可能将新的情感元素与符合音乐氛围的故事相结合)”可知，积极向上的音乐促使受试者从积极的角度进行记忆。C项“因此，欢快的音乐能从积极的角度促进记忆。”符合语境，是对上文的总结。故选C。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Memories may be more flexible than previously thought and could be influenced by external auditory canal (外耳道) during recall. Such findings provide exciting implications for daily life and for medicine.(记忆可能比以往认为的更具灵活性，且在回忆过程中可能会受到外部听觉刺激的影响。这类发现为日常生活及医学领域提供了具有启发意义的启示)”可知，音乐改变记忆方式对日常生活及医疗领域具有启发意义，由此可知，其在日常生活中的应用非常有前景，A项“日常生活中的应用前景十分诱人。”符合语境。故选A。 【20题详解】 根据上文“The music you listen to while going about your daily routines might be subtly shaping how you remember those experiences in the future. The same goes for medicine.(你在日常活动中听的音乐，可能正潜移默化地影响着未来你对这些经历的记忆方式。这一点在医学领域同样适用)”可知，日常生活中所听的音乐可能影响人们对这些经历的记忆方式，且这一点可以用于医学领域，由此推知，空处内容应与医疗有关。且空后中mental health condition表示音乐对于精神健康的影响。F项“对于抑郁症患者来说，音乐的作用更积极。”符合语境。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 To celebrate turning 50, my friend and I decided to run a marathon, aiming to break 4 hours. It’s not a time that would especially ____21____ any competitive runner, but it was our goal and a nice round number. Glancing at my running ____22____ repeatedly, I knew we had it in the bag. We just needed to ____23____ our current pace. We were moving forward effortlessly. But when I crossed the finish line, the official time was 4:04:04. According to my watch, I had ____24____ 27.13 miles — nearly a mile beyond the standard 26.2. My friend’s watch read 27.39. Our tale is far from ____25____. I’ve heard the same story from other runners: Your watch tells you one thing, reality tells you another. It was a real blow. There were three possible reasons. First, the course ____26____ might be inaccurate. Second, my GPS watch ____27____ me. Finally, I ran a highly ____28____ race, making lots of unnecessary zigzags (之字形). The race director ____29____ the course, “We totally focus on getting the exact measurement, not 2 inches off.” Then I ____30____ the watch company and the project manager ____31____ the second assumption: Things like GPS drift (偏差) can also cause your activity to report more or less distance than you ____32____ traveled. So, what can runners do on race day? Mark Carroll, a two-time Olympian, said, “Don’t let your watch take away from the ____33____ of the event.” Maybe if I can get prepared for another 26.2 miles, I’ll try a totally different approach: Forget my watch, ____34____ zigzagging to high-five the crowd, and just run for the sake of running. After all, the ____35____ of a marathon is just doing it. 21 A. influence B. touch C. move D. impress 22. A. shoes B. shorts C. watch D. pack 23. A. record B. adjust C. quicken D. maintain 24.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述作者为庆祝50岁和朋友跑马拉松，因手表与官方时间差异未达目标，探究原因后领悟马拉松核心意义的故事。 【21题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：这个时间（4小时）并不会特别给任何竞技型跑者留下深刻印象，但它是我们的目标，也是一个不错的整数。A. influence影响；B. touch触摸，打动；C. move移动，打动；D. impress给……留下深刻印象。根据下文“competitive runner”（竞技型跑者）可知，4小时的马拉松成绩对专业跑者而言并不突出，难以“留下深刻印象”，符合语境。故选D项。 【22题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我反复瞥着我的跑步手表，知道我们胜券在握。A. shoes鞋子；B. shorts短裤；C. watch手表；D. pack背包。后文多次提到“my watch”“friend’s watch”，且跑步时需通过手表看时间、配速，“running watch”（跑步手表）符合场景，前后文形成呼应。故选C项。 【23题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我们只需要保持当前的配速就行。A. record记录；B. adjust调整；C. quicken加快；D. maintain保持。根据上文文“knew we had it in the bag”（胜券在握）可知，当前配速已能满足目标，无需调整或加快，只需“保持”，“maintain”符合逻辑。故选D项。 【24题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：根据我的手表，我跑了27.13英里——比标准的26.2英里将近多了1英里。A. paved铺设；B. covered覆盖，行走（一段路程）；C. measured测量；D. stretched伸展。根据下文“27.13 miles”可知，“cover+距离”是固定搭配，意为“行走（某段距离）”，符合“手表显示跑了27.13英里”的语境。故选B项。 【25题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我们的经历绝非个例。A. unique独特的；B. aimless漫无目的的；C. complete完整的；D. heartbreaking令人心碎的。根据下文“I’ve heard the same story from other runners”可知，作者的经历并不“独特”，“unique”符合语境。故选A项。 【26题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：首先，赛道长度可能不准确。A. route路线；B. layout布局；C. length长度；D. surface表面。上文提到手表显示的距离比标准马拉松距离长，推测原因时，“赛道长度”不准确是可能因素之一，“length”符合“距离差异”的逻辑。故选C项。 【27题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：其次，我的GPS手表出了问题。A. failed使失望，未能达到预期；B. reminded提醒；C. informed通知；D. warned警告。根据上文“be inaccurate”可知，这里在寻找不准确的原因，手表“未能正常工作”是可能的原因之一，“failed”在此处表示“出故障、失灵”，符合语境。故选A项。 28题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：最后，我跑的路线效率很低，绕了很多不必要的之字形。A. intense紧张的，强烈的；B. demanding要求高的；C. inefficient效率低的；D. stressful有压力的。根据下文“making lots of unnecessary zigzags”可知，会导致实际跑的距离变长，属于“效率低”的跑法，“inefficient”符合语境。故选C项。 【29题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：赛事总监为赛道辩护道：“我们完全专注于精确测量，误差不会超过2英寸。”A. defended辩护，维护；B. located定位；C. covered覆盖；D. doubted怀疑。作者推测赛道长度不准确。根据下文“We totally focus on getting the exact measurement, not 2 inches off.””可知，赛事总监则强调测量精确，是在“为赛道辩护”，“defended”符合语境。故选A项。 【30题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. looked forward to期待；B. reached out to联系；C. got back to回复；D. lived up to达到。根据下文“the watch company”可知，要确认手表是否出问题，需“联系”手表公司，“reached out to”符合“主动沟通”的逻辑。故选B项。 【31题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. dismissed驳回；B. conveyed传达；C. confirmed证实；D. rejected拒绝。根据下文“Things like GPS drift (偏差) can also cause your activity to report more or less distance than you...traveled.”提到GPS偏差会导致距离记录不准，这与作者“手表出问题”的推测一致，即项目经理“证实”了该推测，“confirmed”符合语境。故选C项。 【32题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：然后我联系了手表公司，项目经理证实了第二个推测：像GPS偏差这样的情况也会导致你的运动记录显示的距离与你实际跑的距离有出入。A. regularly定期地；B. actually实际上；C. freely自由地；D. gradually逐渐地。根据下文“traveled.”可知，手表记录的距离是“显示值”，与“实际”跑的距离形成对比，“actually”符合“显示与实际差异”的语境。故选B项。 【33题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：两届奥运会选手马克·卡罗尔说：“别让手表夺走赛事的乐趣。”A. stress压力；B. joy乐趣；C. hope希望；D. determination决心。作者因手表与官方时间差异感到失落，马克·卡罗尔建议不要让手表影响对赛事的体验，即保留赛事的“乐趣”，“joy”符合积极引导的语境。故选B项。 【34题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：也许如果我再准备跑一次26.2英里，我会尝试一种完全不同的方法：忘记手表，欣然接受绕路与观众击掌，只为跑步而跑步。A. avoid避免；B. admit承认；C. cancel取消；D. embrace欣然接受。根据上文“Finally, I ran a highly...race, making lots of unnecessary zigzags (之字形).”可知，前文提到“绕之字形”是效率低的跑法，此处则建议“为跑步而跑步”，应“欣然接受”与观众互动的绕路行为，“embrace”符合“转变心态、享受过程”的语境。故选D项。 【35题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：毕竟，马拉松的成就在于参与本身。A. accomplishment成就；B. possibility可能性；C. transformation转变；D. harmony和谐。根据下文“doing it.”可知，作者最终领悟，马拉松的意义不在于追求特定时间或精准距离，而在于“完成它、参与它”，这本身就是一种“成就”，“accomplishment”符合语境。故选A项。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 In 2015, while working with a Chinese orchestra in Nanning, Conductor Michael Summers saw the power of East-West cultural exchange.

What 44. commitment 45. further##farther 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了指挥家迈克尔·萨默斯在中国进行文化交流的经历。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：从那以后，他四次回到中国，举办音乐会并进行大师班授课。and连接两个并列成分，he与conduct为逻辑上的主动关系，此处应用现在分词conducting，与performing并列作伴随状语。故填conducting。 【37题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：然而，他在中国经历中最非凡的篇章是在他参加广西大石围天坑国家地质公园的一个电视节目时展开的。此处为when引导的时间状语从句的谓语动词，根据语境以及unfolded可知，事情发生在过去，应用一般过去时，所以用过去式participated。故填participated。 【38题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这场表演在一个玻璃平台上进行，该平台悬于巨大的天坑之上，周围环绕着云雾缭绕的群山与古老的森林。此处修饰名词hills，应用形容词misty，意为“多雾的，雾气缭绕的”。故填misty。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：他与中国表演者密切合作，创造了一种独特的音乐风格：将意大利咏叹调《告别时刻》与中国民歌《茉莉花》融合在一起。style为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示 “一种独特的音乐风格”，为泛指意义，且unique是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【40题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：他的目标是将西方歌剧的情感力量与中国旋律的美感结合起来。此处作表语，说明goal的内容，表示要达成的目的，应用动词不定式to combine。故填to combine。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：有一种超越语言和风格的情感共鸣。此处修饰名词emotional connection，应用形容词shared，意为“共享的，共有的”。故填shared。 【42题详解】 考查介词。句意：与他合作的管弦乐队是由极具天赋的中国年轻音乐家组成的。be composed of是固定短语，意为“由……组成”，所以此处用介词of。故填of。 【43题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：最让他印象深刻的是他们与音乐和这片土地的联系。“____8____ struck him most”为主语从句，从句中缺少主语，表示“……的事情”，应用连接代词what引导。位于句首，首字母大写。故填What。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：受到在这些年轻音乐家中所看到的奉献精神的启发，萨默斯现在正在追求一个能够进一步连接东西方的愿景：创建威尼斯爱乐学院，在那里学生们可以学习跨越不同文化背景的音乐。此处应用名词commitment，意为“奉献，投入”作宾语，不可数。故填commitment。 【45题详解】 考查副词比较级。句意：受到在这些年轻音乐家中所看到的奉献精神的启发，萨默斯现在正在追求一个能够进一步连接东西方的愿景：创建威尼斯爱乐学院，在那里学生们可以学习跨越不同文化背景的音乐。此处修饰动词bridge，且结合语境，表示程度上“进一步”，应用副词比较级further/farther。故填further/farther。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，上周末你班组织同学们走进社区公园，拍摄并分享精彩瞬间。请你据此给英国朋友Jack写一封邮件，分享此次经历。内容包括： （1）你的作品； （2）你的感受。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右，开头语已写好； （2）请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Jack, I’m writing to share with you an exciting activity I had last weekend. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】例文 Dear Jack, I’m writing to share with you an exciting activity I had last weekend.

We’d been on the road for nearly three hours in our second-hand RV. I cradled my 9-year-old pet dog, Roscoe, in my lap as we inched through a little town, Pendleton, peering out for any sign of a place to grab a bite for lunch. After 15 minutes driving through, we found pretty slim pickings. The town seemed rather disappointing. Phil and I, both retired, had dreamed of taking a road trip in a comfortable RV for a year. We’d spied the FOR SALE sign on this ancient RV with only 38,000 miles. The coming summer days found Phil and me working on the RV, redoing the interior (内饰), getting the engine checked, and most importantly mounting a brand-new fire extinguisher (灭火器). It felt great to work toward a goal and even have the support of my community, which wasn’t something I would readily find on the road. On the outskirts of Pendleton, I spotted The Saddle — a small restaurant with a full parking lot. Phil parked nearby, and I took Roscoe inside. It was thoughtful with a cool room and water bowl for Roscoe. The dining room was cozy and inviting, and we enjoyed our meal. Then we returned to our RV to start the next leg of our trip. Just as Phil started the engine, I found something smelling like smoke. Flames leaped out before we could reach for the fire extinguisher. “Get out!” Phil screamed. With smoke filling the RV, I grabbed Roscoe while Phil gathered our belongings, and we made our escape. From a safe distance, we called 911. When the fire truck arrived, the RV was already enveloped by flames. I watched the ruined RV helplessly, heartbroken. This trip we’d dreamed about. All our renovation work. For years I’d depended on our friends in our community in times of trouble. Stuck in a small town full of strangers, where could we spend a night? How would we get home? Who could we ask for help? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Word of our needs seemed to spread fast. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A year later, Phil and I revisited Pendleton in a new RV on purpose. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Word of our needs seemed to spread fast. The local fire chief offered us a place to stay for the night, while a kind-hearted waitress from The Saddle brought us warm clothes and food. Strangers approached us with offers of help, their eyes filled with concern and sympathy. As the shock began to wear off, we felt a wave of gratitude wash over us. The town we had initially found disappointing was now revealing its true colors — a community of caring individuals ready to lend a hand in times of need. A year later, Phil and I revisited Pendleton in a new RV on purpose. We wanted to thank those who had helped us in our darkest hour. As we drove through the familiar streets, memories of that fateful day came flooding back. But this time, instead of despair, we felt a sense of warmth and belonging. We stopped at The Saddle, now a symbol of hope and kindness. Our journey had taught us that home isn’t just a place, but a feeling of connection with others, no matter where you are. 【解析】 【导语】文章以作者和丈夫开房车旅行为线索展开，讲述了作者和丈夫开翻新的二手房车旅行，在彭德尔顿小镇用餐后，房车起火被毁，作者伤心又迷茫，不知在陌生小镇如何过夜、回家。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①根据第一段首句“我们需要帮助的消息似乎传得很快。”可知，接下来可描写当地消防队以及民众对他们的帮助（例如提供住所和食物等），和作者感激的心情。 ②根据第二段首句“一年后，Phil和我特意开着一辆新房车重新来到彭德尔顿。”可知，接下来可描写作者感激曾经帮助他们的人，以及作者的感悟（无论身在何处，与他人有联系就是家）。 2.续写线索：消息传开——得到当地人的帮助——心存感激——一年后故地重游——感激当时给予帮助的人——感悟 3.词类激活 行为类 ①提供：offer/provide ②帮助：help/assist ③认为：find/think/assume 情绪类 ①担心：concern/worry ②感激：gratitude/appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】Strangers approached us with offers of help, their eyes filled with concern and sympathy.(运用了独立主格结构) 【高分句型2】As the shock began to wear off, we felt a wave of gratitude wash over us.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句) 【高分句型3】We wanted to thank those who had helped us in our darkest hour.(运用了who引导的定语从句) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ ★优高联考 高三英语试题 2025. 9 注意事项： 1. 答卷前，考生务必将自己的姓名、考生号等填写在答题卡和试卷指定位置上。 2. 回答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用铅笔把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案标号。回答非选择题时，将答案写在答题卡上。写在本试卷上无效。 3. 全部答案在答题卡上完成，答在试卷上无效。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 做题时，先将答案标在试卷上。录音内容结束后，你将有两分钟的时间将试卷上的答案转涂到答题卡上。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 1.

However, local advertising holds the key to success. It’s more than promotion; it’s about connecting with nearby customers. A solid local marketing strategy acts like a guide, helping navigate tools such as Google Local Services Ads to boost visibility, even against larger businesses. Here are some common types of local advertising. Types Media Form Pros and Cons Online Advertising Put on websites, social media accounts, and other online marketing platforms. — Precisely target online users, especially young consumers by location, interests, and behavior. Besides, budget flexibility of the models is often controllable — Overuse of it leads to banner blindness or audience burnout. Outdoor Advertising Placed in public spaces like billboards, transit shelters, and posters. — High-traffic locations guarantee frequent exposure. Besides, its 24/7 exposure can reach a wider audience. — Initial investment often comes at steep costs. Broadcast Advertising Aired commercials on radio and TV stations. — As a comparatively traditional media, it can quickly engage large senior or middle-aged local audiences. — Production and airtime often drain budgets fast, and digital platforms are competing for audience, thus reducing ad views. Print Advertising Published in newspapers, magazines, flyers, brochures, and other marketing materials. — Hyper-local reach makes it ideal and trustworthy for local specific communities or neighborhoods as a physical reference — Costs from design, printing, and distribution can be expensive, especially for color ads. Small businesses can immensely benefit from a local advertising strategy as it enables them to connect directly with their target audience in their local community. It helps them build brand recognition, boost visibility and drive sales. Small businesses can also apply advertising strategies like influencer marketing to achieve their marketing goals. 1. What is a key factor for a small business success? A. Making use of local advertising. B. Banking on modern advertising tools. C. Conducting thorough market research. D. Avoiding competition with larger businesses. 2. Which strategy suits best for a company with a tight budget? A. Online Advertising. B. Outdoor Advertising. C. Broadcast Advertising. D. Print Advertising. 3. Why is local advertising beneficial for small businesses? A. It reduces production expenses. B. It creates a wider influencer market. C. It guarantees nationwide popularity. D. It builds stronger bonds with customers. B I will never forget that spring when I met Mr. Dong the teacher who changed my life. When I first met him, Mr. Dong was in his studio, employing his brush with great skill. His great work, Poem in Clerical Script, left me in awe. The strong strokes (线条) and the square yet varied outline of Chinese characters all demonstrated his mastery. “Would you like to learn?” Mr. Dong asked with a smile. I nodded excitedly. And so, I became his student. In the days that followed, Mr. Dong patiently taught me the techniques of painting and calligraphy. He emphasized the importance of integrating an ancient charm in our works, using bright colors and mastering the use of ink. Whenever I had questions, he always explained tirelessly. I love painting plum blossoms (梅花) and have faithfully followed his brilliant style. For my painting entitled Lady smelling the plum blossoms, I have heeded his instructions to outline the flowers with light ink and draw the pistils (花蕊) with thick dark ink dots. The plum blossoms are arranged in alternating layers of denseness and thinness. I have drawn a lady wearing her hair in double knots under the flowers. She is picking up a branch to smell the sweet fragrance, with a smile playing around her eyes. I have also applied color to this lady, so that she stands out vividly in the blossoming branches of the dark plum trees. As seasons passed, my skills improved steadily under Mr. Dong’s careful instructions. Every time I made a breakthrough in my work, I would think of his teachings. He not only passed on artistic skills but also taught me life lessons. Now, whenever I pick up a brush to paint, I’m reminded of Mr. Dong’s earnest instructions. His teachings, both by word and by example, and his care like a strict father and kind teacher, are deeply carved in my heart. I know that this debt of gratitude to my teacher will accompany me throughout my life, inspiring me to continue advancing on my artistic journey. 4. To which art form does Poem in Clerical Script belong? A. Carving. B. Calligraphy. C. Painting. D. Literature. 5 What did Mr. Dong prioritize in his teaching? A. Modern style. B. Historical grace. C. Abstract forms. D. Realistic details. 6. What can we infer about the painting of Lady smelling the plum blossoms? A. It is dominated by bright and vivid colors. B. It features various ink shades with the lady in color. C. The plum blossoms are mainly painted in a single layer. D. The lady looks regretful without any facial expressions. 7. What is Mr. Dong like according to the last paragraph? A. Courageous. B. Stubborn. C. Devoted. D. Independent. C Scientists have developed an AI-powered modeling method that mimics (模仿) how birds produce songs, similar to how large language models like ChatGPT generate human sentences. Both birds and humans arrange their vocal (声音的) expressions in structured ways. In human speech, words follow specific grammatical rules, while birds sing in organized syllabic (音节的) patterns. One key aspect of both birdsong and human language is context dependence. In English, for example, the phrase “flies like” can have different meanings depending on what follows. For instance, while “time flies like an arrow” is a statement about time, “fruit flies like bananas” is one about insects and food. If we mix these up — “time flies like bananas” — the meaning becomes nonsensical. The research team analyzed previously recorded songs from six Bengalese birds, each of which sings 7 to 15 syllables per series. Their AI model mapped series of events by tracking what came next based on past occurrences. Imagine a flowchart where each syllable leads to a range of possible next syllables, with probabilities assigned to each shift. Using this approach, the team generated a range of possible models for each bird’s song, gradually refining (改进) them to ensure they only produced series that actually exist in the bird’s natural surroundings. The final models accurately reflected each bird’s real singing patterns while identifying which syllables were context-dependent. The results showed that all six birds displayed context dependence in their songs, while the degree of it varied between individuals. It supports the idea that birds listen to themselves and adjust their vocal patterns based on what they hear, much like how humans refine speech and grammar while learning a language. To explore this deeply, the researchers studied birds that could not hear their own songs. The results were striking. These birds showed a dramatic reduction in context-dependent syllables, suggesting that hearing feedback is crucial in shaping how birds refine their songs. So this study raises questions about how truly unique human language is if birds follow similar rules. 8. What feature do birdsong and human language have in common? A. Meaning depends on context. B Words follow grammar rules. C. Both sound with syllable patterns. D. Meaning changes based on prediction. 9. What is the research method of the team? A. Bird watching. B. Trend spotting. C. Pattern modeling. D. Interview analysis. 10. What does the underlined “this” refer to in paragraph 5? A. Birds depend on context randomly. B. Birds change their ideas like humans. C. Birds listen to others’ songs to form theirs. D. Birds refine vocal expressions like humans. 11. What is the best title of the passage? A. The Magic Patterns of Language B. Insights into Birdsong Complexity C. AI Unlocks Birdsong’s Contextual Secrets D. AI Connections: Birds and Humans United D In 1785, English philosopher Jeremy Bentham designed a perfect castle where rooms circle a tower, from which an unseen guard can observe any people at will. People have to assume they’re constantly observed and behave accordingly. The secret of the castle control: the people have internalized the surveillance (监控) mechanism themselves. Bentham’s design feels so relevant in our digital age of algorithms (算法) and social media, when we frequently feel watched, with no way to escape. How being watched affects us is the first topic that has been studied in psychology. Decades of studies have shown that we behave differently when we are watched. On a conscious level, we become more prosocial, meaning we’re more likely to give and less likely to cheat or litter. Even theft or littering could be reduced merely by posting pictures of eyes. Seymour, a psychologist from the University of Technology Sydney, puts this down to our concern with reputation and social consequences. This led to the idea that surveillance could be used for social good, echoing Bentham’s methods. Being watched also affects cognitive (认知) functions, but negatively. One study found that participants performed worse on a working memory task with people looking at them — a direct gaze grabs participants’ attention and distracts them from a given task. A series of experiments have demonstrated that bringing more surveillance into workplaces or educational settings — usually an attempt to boost productivity — could actually be counterproductive. Surveillance profoundly impacts our brain’s unconscious processing. Seymour says it makes our social thinking and survival instincts work too hard. This makes us worry about everyone’s mental health. Always being watched makes us more aware of people around us, keeping us on edge and ready to act. “We didn’t have as much surveillance and social connection 50 years ago, so it’s a new societal context we’re adapting to. We need to find ways to balance the benefits of connectivity with the drawbacks of constant surveillance,” Seymour remarks. 12. Why does the author mention the castle in the first paragraph? A.

How might a student perform during a monitored online test? A. Ignoring the existence of the webcams. B. Improving his thinking ability thoroughly. C. Having a lower performance than expected. D. Completing the test with fueled confidence. 15. What does Seymour suggest about the society full of surveillance? A. Cut interactions to ease stress. B. Boost surveillance for connections. C. Ignore the impact of surveillance. D. Weigh connectivity against surveillance. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How Music Reshapes the Emotional Lens of Memory Have you ever noticed how a particular song can bring back a flood of memories? Maybe it’s the tune that was playing during your first dance, or the melody of a memorable road trip. ____16____ However, recent research suggests that music may do more than just trigger (触发) memories — it might even change how you remember them. In the research, scientists found that listening to music can change how you feel about what you remember. ____17____ The areas of your brain responsible for emotion and memory also become active. The hippocampus (海马体), which is essential for storing memories, works closely with the brain’s emotional center. This is why certain songs are deeply emotional. Research noted that music played during recall might introduce new emotional elements into the original memory. Apparently, when positive music is played, the participants surveyed were more likely to combine new emotional elements with the story that matched the mood of the music. ____18____ Even when the music is no longer playing, musical memory remains. Memories may be more flexible than previously thought and could be influenced by external auditory canal (外耳道) during recall. Such findings provide exciting implications for daily life and for medicine. ____19____ The music you listen to while going about your daily routines might be subtly shaping how you remember those experiences in the future. The same goes for medicine. ____20____ It opens a new path for exploring music-based interventions in treatments for mental health conditions. The next time you put on a favorite playlist, consider how it might be coloring not just your current mood but also your future recollections as well. A. Daily life applications are inviting. B. When listening, more than your ears are engaged. C. So cheerful music boosts memory in a bright perspective. D. The reason why music can evoke emotions remains unknown. E. It suffers when people find those memories fade away with time. F. For people with depression, music works in a more positive light. G. People often think of these musical memories as such fixed shots of the past. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 To celebrate turning 50, my friend and I decided to run a marathon, aiming to break 4 hours.

So, what can runners do on race day?

We’d been on the road for nearly three hours in our second-hand RV. I cradled my 9-year-old pet dog, Roscoe, in my lap as we inched through a little town, Pendleton, peering out for any sign of a place to grab a bite for lunch. After 15 minutes driving through, we found pretty slim pickings. The town seemed rather disappointing. Phil and I, both retired, had dreamed of taking a road trip in a comfortable RV for a year. We’d spied the FOR SALE sign on this ancient RV with only 38,000 miles. The coming summer days found Phil and me working on the RV, redoing the interior (内饰), getting the engine checked, and most importantly mounting a brand-new fire extinguisher (灭火器). It felt great to work toward a goal and even have the support of my community, which wasn’t something I would readily find on the road. On the outskirts of Pendleton, I spotted The Saddle — a small restaurant with a full parking lot. Phil parked nearby, and I took Roscoe inside. It was thoughtful with a cool room and water bowl for Roscoe. The dining room was cozy and inviting, and we enjoyed our meal. Then we returned to our RV to start the next leg of our trip. Just as Phil started the engine, I found something smelling like smoke. Flames leaped out before we could reach for the fire extinguisher. “Get out!” Phil screamed. With smoke filling the RV, I grabbed Roscoe while Phil gathered our belongings, and we made our escape. From a safe distance, we called 911. When the fire truck arrived, the RV was already enveloped by flames. I watched the ruined RV helplessly heartbroken. This trip we’d dreamed about. All our renovation work. For years I’d depended on our friends in our community in times of trouble. Stuck in a small town full of strangers, where could we spend a night? How would we get home? Who could we ask for help? 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Word of our needs seemed to spread fast. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ A year later, Phil and I revisited Pendleton in a new RV on purpose. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
