The lights from the cottage windows disappear, as we follow a dark footpath through a field into the open countryside. Thick clouds prevent the moonlight from lighting up the way ahead. Yet, as my eyes begin to get used to the darkness, the landscape around me reveals itself in a new light.
Mount Caburn, an iron-age hill fort, looks like shadows against the sky. On the horizon is a tree bent by the wind. The outcrop (露出的部分) at the top of the field turns out to be a flock of sleeping sheep. A fox cries, a pheasant (野鸡) crows, and the air is full of a strong earthy scent.
“For most of human history, man lived in close contact with the land,” says Nigel Berman, my guide. “Only in the past few hundred years have we shut ourselves off from our natural surroundings. Walking at night is a powerful way of reconnecting. When your vision is reduced, your other senses are sharpened.”
Nigel and I walk from the village of Glynde across the South Downs towards the town of Lewes. It is a walk I know well by day, but at night everything is different, and a familiar stroll becomes a mini adventure. When Nigel told me not to bring a torch, I was alarmed. I can’t remember the last time I used my night vision and I’m not even sure how it works.
Normally, at this time of night, I would be having a glass of wine in front of the television, but being out in the countryside is a purer form of relaxation. I forget about work and family tensions, and begin to blend into the surroundings. There is no one other than Nigel to see or hear me and, with little visual distraction, my mind calms. I am aware of the breeze on my face, the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves, and as I watch the clouds slowly changing colour against the sky like a natural sound and light show, it feels mesmeric.
As we reach the top, Lewes appears below as a twinkly mass of lights, a sight I would generally consider inviting. In just a few hours, however, I find myself reluctant to walk back down. Walking at night is like discovering a new world on your doorstep. As Henry David Thoreau wrote in Night and Moonlight: “Night is certainly more novel and less profane (世俗的) than day.”
4. The underlined word in the last but one paragraph probably means “________”.
A. interesting B. fascinating C. frightening D. disappointing
5. According to the article, what was the author’s greatest concern before the night walk?
A. That he might disturb wild animals. B. That he wouldn’t be able to see without a torch.
C. That he might feel bored along the way. D. That he would encounter bad weather.
6. According to the article, the author did NOT see ________ during the night walk.
①rare birds ②a new moon ③farm animals ④leafless trees ⑤moving clouds
A. ①②④ B. ①③⑤ C. ①②③④ D. ②③④⑤
7. What can we infer from the article about the author?
A. He had gone for a walk on his own at night before.
B. He intentionally picked a cloudy night for his walk.
C. He successfully reached the top of the mountain before sunrise.
D. He started to know how to manage family tensions after the night walk.
C
Secondhand markets are thriving in China today, with secondhand trading having gradually become a significant part of the lives of China’s young people.
When asked about the reasons for shopping secondhand, some said it was low-carbon and environmentally beneficial. Secondhand items can be redistributed to new owners, highlighting a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way of life.
And others appreciate the deeper significance behind secondhand markets — not only do they serve basic functions such as exchanging items, saving, or earning extra money, but they have also evolved into social spaces and cultural expressions. This trend has become even more evident since “guzi” gained popularity.
“Guzi” — a term sharing the same pronunciation as the English word “goods” and referring to badges, figure statues, cards, and other products with ACG (animation, comic, and game) culture elements — became widely popular last year, and from then on most transactions in secondhand markets have been related to hobbies, including outdoor sports, digital products, etc. Lu Qing, a guzi collector who often organizes group secondhand purchases, said, “It helps me meet many friends with the same interests”.
An interesting phenomenon in secondhand guzi trading is that seemingly unimportant items like Ultraman (奥特曼) cards can fetch prices comparable to luxury bags — the value of such items is determined not just by their original price and brand, but also by their symbolic significance!
However, some unexpected situations arose alongside the prosperity of secondhand guzi. When the act of showing off expensive secondhand guzi and the number of guzi that one owns becomes a way to “prove one’s loyalty”, fans who spend less may feel ashamed, while some younger fans admire those who are able to fill their rooms with guzi. This trend is actually a form of consumerism.
8. What do we learn about secondhand markets in China today?
A. They damage the environment.
B. They redistribute new items.
C. They increase national savings.
D. They offer a social platform.
9. Which of the following can be referred to as guzi?
A. A Luxury bag. B. A Ne Zha statuette.
C. A picture of the sea. D. A box of poker.
10. What can we learn about the prices of the secondhand guzi from paragraph 5?
A. They are affected by their symbolic meanings.
B. They are decided just by their original prices and brands.
C. They are up to their quantities on the market.
D. They are open to instant bargaining.
11. What can be learned about the secondhand guzi from the last paragraph?
A. They are testimony to fans’ loyalty.
B. Their high price may disturb the market order.
C. They are unnecessary social products.
D. Their popularity may cause irrational behaviour.
D
As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.
Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans, but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.
The research team focused on a large urban park. They surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding (编码) experiences into different categories. For example, one participant’s experience of “We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while” was assigned the categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”
Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors. These include encountering wildlife, walking along the edge of water, and following an established trail.
Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park. Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break.
“We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives. And for that to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it,” said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study.
12. What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?
A. Pocket parks are now popular. B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.
C. Many cities are overpopulated. D. People enjoy living close to nature.
13. Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories?
A. To compare different types of park-goers. B. To explain why the park attracts tourists.
C. To analyze the main features of the park. D. To find patterns in the visitors’ summaries.
14. What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 5?
A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.
B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.
C. The same nature experience takes different forms.
D. The nature language enhances work performance.
15. What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn?
A. Language study. B. Environmental conservation.
C. Public education. D. Intercultural communication.

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。
Nowadays, meaningfully connecting with new people is no mean achievement. From the decline of the office to the rise of single-occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us. ____16____ Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human.
It wasn’t always like this. ____17____ You’ll see cafes and nightclubs and buses and trains filled with life and conversation. People talk to one another. Loudly and proudly, they just talk. ____18____ So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs.
____19____ I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.”
Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us. ____20____ Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life.
A. Look at photos of city life in the 90s or 00s.
B. My first interaction experiment didn’t go so well.
C. Online platforms offer new ways to bond more closely.
D. What better way to make social connections than this?
E. My first attempt with the baker worked out as planned.
F. Then, conversations with strangers become a regular occurrence.
G. Meanwhile, streaming services and food-delivery apps discourage us from going out.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The smell of roasted chicken filled the kitchen as we gathered for our usual Friday dinner. Having swallowed a big mouthful of chicken, I took a deep breath and began, “Could I invite some friends over tomorrow? Just for the afternoon?”
My parents exchanged a glance, then nodded readily. But beside me, my younger sister, Lily, froze. Her wide eyes locked onto mine. “But... what about Miracle? She’ll be terrified, Ethan.”
Miracle was a cat Lily rescued on a rainy day last winter. True to her name, the cat had survived. Yet, it remained a creature of profound shyness: Loud voices sent her trembling under beds; sudden movements made her jump. She wasn’t just a pet; she was a fragile soul Lily fiercely protected.
“I promise, Lily,” I insisted, leaning forward, meeting her worried gaze(凝视). “We’ll stay in the living room. No loud music, no shouting games. I’ll keep the back door shut tight, and I’ll warn everyone to be quiet. Miracle won’t even know they’re here.” I saw the conflict in her eyes — her desire to be supportive warring with her deep concern for the poor cat. After a tense silence, she finally gave a small, reluctant nod.
Saturday arrived with sunshine and laughter as my friends piled in. True to my word, I guided them straight to the living room, reminding them firmly about Miracle’s sensitivity.Initially, we chatted, played cards quietly. Glancing around, I spotted Miracle sliding silently down the hallway towards Lily’s room. Good, she’s keeping her distance, I thought, relieved.
As the afternoon wore on, however, the initial caution disappeared. A competitive board game led to enthusiastic cheers and laughter. Lost in the sheer fun of being with my friends, I forgot everything - he promise, the fragile creature.
After friends departed with cheerful goodbyes, I began tidying empty glasses, still lost in the happy scenes when Lily burst through the front door into her room. Then came her scream, “Ethan, Miracle is gone.”
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。
A cold wave of fear rushed through me.

The lights from the cottage windows disappear, as we follow a dark footpath through a field into the open countryside. Thick clouds prevent the moonlight from lighting up the way ahead. Yet, as my eyes begin to get used to the darkness, the landscape around me reveals itself in a new light.
Mount Caburn, an iron-age hill fort, looks like shadows against the sky. On the horizon is a tree bent by the wind. The outcrop (露出的部分) at the top of the field turns out to be a flock of sleeping sheep. A fox cries, a pheasant (野鸡) crows, and the air is full of a strong earthy scent.
“For most of human history, man lived in close contact with the land,” says Nigel Berman, my guide. “Only in the past few hundred years have we shut ourselves off from our natural surroundings. Walking at night is a powerful way of reconnecting. When your vision is reduced, your other senses are sharpened.”
Nigel and I walk from the village of Glynde across the South Downs towards the town of Lewes. It is a walk I know well by day, but at night everything is different, and a familiar stroll becomes a mini adventure. When Nigel told me not to bring a torch, I was alarmed. I can’t remember the last time I used my night vision and I’m not even sure how it works.
Normally, at this time of night, I would be having a glass of wine in front of the television, but being out in the countryside is a purer form of relaxation. I forget about work and family tensions, and begin to blend into the surroundings. There is no one other than Nigel to see or hear me and, with little visual distraction, my mind calms. I am aware of the breeze on my face, the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves, and as I watch the clouds slowly changing colour against the sky like a natural sound and light show, it feels mesmeric.
As we reach the top, Lewes appears below as a twinkly mass of lights, a sight I would generally consider inviting. In just a few hours, however, I find myself reluctant to walk back down. Walking at night is like discovering a new world on your doorstep. As Henry David Thoreau wrote in Night and Moonlight: “Night is certainly more novel and less profane (世俗的) than day.”
4. The underlined word in the last but one paragraph probably means “________”.
A. interesting B. fascinating C. frightening D. disappointing
5. According to the article, what was the author’s greatest concern before the night walk?

B. He intentionally picked a cloudy night for his walk.
C. He successfully reached the top of the mountain before sunrise.
D. He started to know how to manage family tensions after the night walk.

词句猜测题。根据画线词的上文“Normally, at this time of night, I would be having a glass of wine in front of the television, but being out in the countryside is a purer form of relaxation. I forget about work and family tensions, and begin to blend into the surroundings. (通常在这个深夜时分,我本该端着酒杯坐在电视机前。但此刻置身乡野,却体验到了一种更为纯粹的放松。工作的压力、家庭的烦忧都被抛诸脑后,我渐渐与周围的环境融为一体)”可知,在夜间行走让作者感到放松,作者开始融入环境;再结合画线词所在句“I am aware of the breeze on my face, the rustle (沙沙声) of leaves, and as I watch the clouds slowly changing colour against the sky like a natural sound and light show (我能感受到微风拂面,听见树叶沙沙作响,当我注视着云朵在天空中缓缓变幻色彩,宛如一场天然的光影秀时)”可知,作者深切感受着自然景象的变化,此时作者应该觉得这幅景象是迷人的,画线词意思是“迷人的”,与fascinating“迷人的”含义最接近。故选B项。

Secondhand markets are thriving in China today, with secondhand trading having gradually become a significant part of the lives of China’s young people.
When asked about the reasons for shopping secondhand, some said it was low-carbon and environmentally beneficial. Secondhand items can be redistributed to new owners, highlighting a more environmentally friendly and sustainable way of life.
And others appreciate the deeper significance behind secondhand markets — not only do they serve basic functions such as exchanging items, saving, or earning extra money, but they have also evolved into social spaces and cultural expressions. This trend has become even more evident since “guzi” gained popularity.
“Guzi” — a term sharing the same pronunciation as the English word “goods” and referring to badges, figure statues, cards, and other products with ACG (animation, comic, and game) culture elements — became widely popular last year, and from then on most transactions in secondhand markets have been related to hobbies, including outdoor sports, digital products, etc. Lu Qing, a guzi collector who often organizes group secondhand purchases, said, “It helps me meet many friends with the same interests”.
An interesting phenomenon in secondhand guzi trading is that seemingly unimportant items like Ultraman (奥特曼) cards can fetch prices comparable to luxury bags — the value of such items is determined not just by their original price and brand, but also by their symbolic significance!
However, some unexpected situations arose alongside the prosperity of secondhand guzi. When the act of showing off expensive secondhand guzi and the number of guzi that one owns becomes a way to “prove one’s loyalty”, fans who spend less may feel ashamed, while some younger fans admire those who are able to fill their rooms with guzi. This trend is actually a form of consumerism.
8. What do we learn about secondhand markets in China today?
A. They damage the environment.
B. They redistribute new items.
C. They increase national savings.
D. They offer a social platform.
9. Which of the following can be referred to as guzi?
A. A Luxury bag. B. A Ne Zha statuette.
C. A picture of the sea. D. A box of poker.
10. What can we learn about the prices of the secondhand guzi from paragraph 5?
A. They are affected by their symbolic meanings.
B. They are decided just by their original prices and brands.
C. They are up to their quantities on the market.
D. They are open to instant bargaining.
11. What can be learned about the secondhand guzi from the last paragraph?
A. They are testimony to fans’ loyalty.
B. Their high price may disturb the market order.
C. They are unnecessary social products.
D. Their popularity may cause irrational behaviour.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国二手市场的繁荣现状及其背后的文化现象。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段中“And others appreciate the deeper significance behind secondhand markets — not only do they serve basic functions such as exchanging items, saving, or earning extra money, but they have also evolved into social spaces and cultural expressions.(另一些人则欣赏二手市场背后的深层意义——它们不仅具有交换物品、储蓄或赚取额外收入等基本功能,而且还演变成社会空间和文化表达。)”可知,二手市场已经演变成社交空间和文化表达方式,为人们提供了社交平台。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段提到““Guzi” — a term sharing the same pronunciation as the English word “goods” and referring to badges, figure statues, cards, and other products with ACG (animation, comic, and game) culture elements(‘谷子’一词与英文单词“goods”发音相同,指的是带有ACG(动画、漫画和游戏)文化元素的徽章、人物雕像、卡片和其他产品。)”可知,“谷子”是指带有动漫、游戏文化元素的徽章、人物雕像、卡片等产品。B选项 “哪吒雕像”符合这一描述。故选B项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“An interesting phenomenon in secondhand guzi trading is that seemingly unimportant items like Ultraman (奥特曼) cards can fetch prices comparable to luxury bags—the value of such items is determined not just by their original price and brand, but also by their symbolic significance!(二手‘谷子’交易中一个有趣的现象是,像奥特曼卡这样看似不重要的东西可以卖到与奢侈包包相当的价格——这些东西的价值不仅取决于它们的原价和品牌,还取决于它们的象征意义!)”可推知,二手‘谷子’的价格不仅由其原价和品牌决定,还受到其象征意义的影响。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“When the act of showing off expensive secondhand guzi and the number of guzi that one owns becomes a way to “prove one’s loyalty”, fans who spend less may feel ashamed, while some younger fans admire those who are able to fill their rooms with guzi. This trend is actually a form of consumerism.(当炫耀昂贵的二手‘谷子’和自己拥有的‘谷子’数量成为一种‘证明自己忠诚’的方式时,花钱少的粉丝可能会感到羞愧,而一些年轻的粉丝则钦佩那些能把‘谷子’装满房间的人。这种趋势实际上是一种消费主义。)”可知,炫耀昂贵的二手“谷子”和拥有的数量成为一种“证明忠诚”的方式,这会让消费较少的粉丝感到羞愧,一些年轻粉丝会羡慕那些能把房间堆满“谷子”的人,这种趋势是一种消费主义,可能导致不理性的行为。故选D项。

As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.
Past research has found health and wellness benefits of nature for humans, but a new study shows that wildness in urban areas is extremely important for human well-being.
The research team focused on a large urban park. They surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding (编码) experiences into different categories. For example, one participant’s experience of “We sat and listened to the waves at the beach for a while” was assigned the categories “sitting at beach” and “listening to waves.”
Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors. These include encountering wildlife, walking along the edge of water, and following an established trail.
Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park. Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break.
“We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives. And for that to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it,” said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study.
12. What phenomenon does the author describe at the beginning of the text?
A. Pocket parks are now popular. B. Wild nature is hard to find in cities.
C. Many cities are overpopulated. D. People enjoy living close to nature.
13. Why did the researchers code participant submissions into categories?
A. To compare different types of park-goers. B. To explain why the park attracts tourists.
C. To analyze the main features of the park. D. To find patterns in the visitors’ summaries.
14. What can we learn from the example given in paragraph 5?
A. Walking is the best way to gain access to nature.
B. Young people are too busy to interact with nature.
C. The same nature experience takes different forms.
D. The nature language enhances work performance.
15. What should be done before we can interact with nature according to Kahn?
A. Language study. B. Environmental conservation.
C. Public education. D. Intercultural communication.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。城市化让人们越来越难以接触到自然,但一项新研究发现城市中的野生自然对人类健康和幸福感具有重要影响。研究团队对一座大型城市公园的游客进行调查,发现与野生自然的互动可以创造出一种可用的语言,帮助人们认识和参与最令人满意和有意义的活动。该研究呼吁保护城市中的野生自然。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段内容“As cities balloon with growth, access to nature for people living in urban areas is becoming harder to find. If you’re lucky, there might be a pocket park near where you live, but it’s unusual to find places in a city that are relatively wild.(随着城市的飞速发展,生活在城市地区的人们越来越难以接近大自然。如果你幸运的话,你住的地方附近可能会有一个袖珍公园,但在城市里找到相对天然的地方是罕见的)”可知,文章开头作者讲述了一种现象,在城市里,人们很难找到野生的自然。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“They surveyed several hundred park-goers, asking them to submit a written summary online of a meaningful interaction they had with nature in the park. The researchers then examined these submissions, coding (编码) experiences into different categories. (他们调查了数百名公园游客,要求他们在网上提交一份书面总结,描述他们在公园里与大自然有意义的互动。然后,研究人员检查了这些提交的信息,将体验分为不同的类别)”可知,研究人员按照公园游客提交的在公园里与大自然互动的活动把游客分类,再根据第四段“Across the 320 submissions, a pattern of categories the researchers call a “nature language” began to emerge. After the coding of all submissions, half a dozen categories were noted most often as important to visitors. (在这320份提交的作品中,一种被研究人员称为“自然语言”的分类模式开始出现。在对所有提交的内容进行编码后,有六个类别被认为对游客最重要)”可知,研究人员对参与者提交的内容进行了分类,以便在游客的总结中找到模式,并确定对游客最重要的自然体验。通过这样做,他们能够创造一种“自然语言”,帮助人们认识并参与对他们来说最满意和最有意义的活动。选项D准确地反映了这一目的。故选D。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段内容“Naming each nature experience creates a usable language, which helps people recognize and take part in the activities that are most satisfying and meaningful to them. For example, the experience of walking along the edge of water might be satisfying for a young professional on a weekend hike in the park. Back downtown during a workday, they can enjoy a more domestic form of this interaction by walking along a fountain on their lunch break. (命名每一种自然体验创造了一种可用的语言,这有助于人们认识并参与到对他们来说最满意和最有意义的活动中。例如,沿着水边散步的经历可能会让一个年轻的专业人士在周末去公园徒步旅行时感到满意。在工作日回到市中心,他们可以在午休时沿着喷泉散步,享受一种更居家的互动方式)”可知,本段讲述了自然体验创造一种可用的语言,有助于人们识别并参与对自己来说最满意最有意义的活动,接下来以一个年轻的专业人士参与自然的方式举例说明,去公园时沿着水边散步让他感到满意,回到市中心工作时他可以通过沿着喷泉散步获得满足。因此推知,从第五段的例子中我们可以知道一样的自然体验可以呈现不同的形式。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““We’re trying to generate a language that helps bring the human-nature interactions back into our daily lives. And for that to happen, we also need to protect nature so that we can interact with it,” said Peter Kahn, a senior author of the study. (“我们正试图创造一种语言,帮助将人类与自然的互动带回我们的日常生活中。要做到这一点,我们还需要保护自然,这样我们才能与它互动,”该研究的资深作者彼得·卡恩说。)”可推断,彼得·卡恩认为在我们与大自然互动之前我们应该先要保护自然。故选B。

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。
Nowadays, meaningfully connecting with new people is no mean achievement. From the decline of the office to the rise of single-occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us. ____16____ Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human.
It wasn’t always like this. ____17____ You’ll see cafes and nightclubs and buses and trains filled with life and conversation. People talk to one another. Loudly and proudly, they just talk. ____18____ So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs.
____19____ I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.”
Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us. ____20____ Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life.
A. Look at photos of city life in the 90s or 00s.
B. My first interaction experiment didn’t go so well.
C. Online platforms offer new ways to bond more closely.
D. What better way to make social connections than this?

F. Then, conversations with strangers become a regular occurrence.
G. Meanwhile, streaming services and food-delivery apps discourage us from going out.
【答案】16. G 17. A 18. D 19. B 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者在现代社会中尝试与陌生人建立联系的经历。文章通过对比过去和现在的社交环境,描述了作者如何主动打破僵局、开启对话,并最终在生活中融入更多温暖的人际互动。
【16题详解】
根据上文“From the decline of the office to the rise of single - occupancy flats, our social lives are being taken away from us.(从办公室的减少到单人公寓的兴起,我们的社交生活正被剥夺)”以及下文“Their ads promote the safety and convenience of staying home and not seeing or talking to another human.(它们的广告宣扬待在家里、不与他人见面或交谈的安全性和便利性)”可知,上文提到了我们的社交生活正被剥夺,下文提到了广告宣扬待在家里、不与他人见面或交谈的安全性和便利性,可推理出空白处应提及另一个导致人们减少社交、不愿外出的因素,G项“Meanwhile, streaming services and food-delivery apps discourage us from going out.(与此同时,流媒体服务和外卖应用阻止我们外出)”符合语境,故填G项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“It wasn’t always like this.(事情并不总是这样的)”以及下文“You’ll see cafes and nightclubs and buses and trains filled with life and conversation.(你会看到咖啡馆、夜总会、公交车和火车上充满了生机和交谈)”可知,下文提到了咖啡馆、夜总会、公交车和火车上充满了生机和交谈,可推理出此处是要展现过去不同的社交场景,A项“Look at photos of city life in the 90s or 00s.(看看 90 年代或 00 年代的城市生活照片)”能够引出下文描述的过去的热闹景象,符合逻辑。故填A项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“People talk to one another. Loudly and proudly, they just talk.(人们彼此交谈。他们大声而自豪地交谈着)”以及下文“So, I tried it out on everyone I met, from neighbors and shopkeepers to hospitality workers and groups of strangers in cafes and pubs (于是,我便试着与遇到的每个人打交道,从邻居、店主到咖啡馆和酒吧里的服务人员以及成群的陌生人)”可知,上文提到了人们彼此交谈,下文提到了我便试着与遇到的每个人打交道,可推理出作者受过去人们轻松交谈的启发,想要尝试这种社交方式,D项“What better way to make social connections than this?(还有什么比这更好的建立社交联系的方式呢?)”既肯定了过去那种交谈方式在社交上的作用,也自然引出了下文作者的尝试,符合语境。故填D项。
【19题详解】
根据下文“I remember being attracted into one of Gail’s bakeries by the background music they played. I walked over to the baker. I pointed upwards. “Are you guys responsible for this playlist?” A nod. “Ah, great, love it” He smiles thinly and nods a polite “goodbye”, which everyone knows means: “GO AWAY IMMEDIATELY, PLEASE.”(我记得当时被盖尔烘焙坊播放的背景音乐所吸引,便走了过去。我朝上指了指,问道:‘这首歌单是你们选的吗?’对方点了点头。‘太好了,很喜欢!’他淡淡地笑了笑,礼貌地点了下头算是道别——而人人都明白这意思其实是:‘请立刻离开!’)”可知,这次互动并不顺利,B项“My first interaction experiment didn’t go so well.(我的第一次互动实验进展不太顺利)”能够概括这段经历,引出下文具体内容。故填B项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Yet persistence paid off when the ice was finally broken by Graham, a fellow resident of my little neighborhood. We got chatting one day while he was smoking on his doorstep. I mentioned being a writer, and he paused, taking a long drag on his cigarette, and said, “Words are to the mind what exercise is to the body.” That profound insight immediately opened a channel between us (然而,我的坚持终于得到了回报,我的邻居格雷厄姆终于打破了僵局。有一天,当他在家门口抽烟时,我们聊了起来。我提到自己是个作家,他停顿了一下,深深地吸了一口烟,说:‘语言之于心灵,犹如运动之于身体。’这句深刻的见解立刻在我们之间开辟了一条通道)”可知,此处描述了作者与邻居格雷厄姆成功交流的经历,结合下文“Those encounters, born from a conscious effort to connect, have gradually woven warmth and familiarity into the fabric of my daily life.(这些出于有意识的联系而产生的相遇,逐渐为我的日常生活编织出了温暖和熟悉)”可知,此处表示作者与他人的交流逐渐变得频繁,可推理出此处说的是与Graham的交流打开了局面后,与陌生人的交流变得常态化了,F项“Then, conversations with strangers become a regular occurrence.(然后,与陌生人的交谈变成了常事)”符合语境,承接上文并引出下文对这些相遇的总结。故填F项。

41. separating
42. the 43. in
44. committed
45. picky
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲解了中国“斗蛐蛐”这一传统运动项目的历史。具体介绍了“斗蛐蛐”的规则、 “斗蛐蛐”对于山东宁阳县经济的拉动作用,并通过 Zhao Jiuling 这一斗蛐蛐爱好者的视角介绍了蛐蛐的饮食等习惯。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:秋天是中国斗蛐蛐的季节,这项运动被认为可以追溯到一千多年前。句子谓语动词是marks,空格处填入非谓语动词,“sport”和believe之间为被动关系,此处应用过去分词作后置定语。故填believed。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:近年来,它受到了新一代的欢迎。此处应用名词作宾语, 这里是指斗蛐蛐这一运动在最近几年受到了新一代人的欢迎,popularity为不可数名词。故填popularity。
【38题详解】
考查表语从句连接词。句意:以下是这个运动是如何操作的。根据后文介绍“斗蛐蛐”的规则可知这里应该是介绍方式,故用连接副词“how”引导表语从句。故填how。
【39题详解】
考查连词。句意:两只蛐蛐——通常是雄性——称重至最接近的百分之一克,然后按体重级别配对。根据句意以及横线后的“then”可知这里的“be weighed”和“paired off”应该是并列关系,用and连接,故填and。
【40题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:它们被放置在一个接近餐盘大小的透明塑料环中,并用分隔墙将两种昆虫分开。主语“They”指“蛐蛐”,和动词place(放置)是被动关系,所以用被动语态。根据本段时态可知,用一般现在时的被动语态,主语表示复数意义,be动词用are,故填are placed。
【41题详解】
考查with的复合结构。句意同上。结合空格前的with可知用with的复合结构,墙将两只蛐蛐分隔开来,故“a dividing wall”和“sperate”之间为主动关系,故用现在分词作宾补。故填separating。
【42题详解】
考查定冠词。句意:一名裁判密切监视着这些小拳击手,记录它们进攻和撤退的次数。这里指“记录好蛐蛐进攻和撤退的次数”,the number of…意为“……的数量”。故填the。
【43题详解】
考查介词。句意:山东宁阳县出产的蛐蛐特别受欢迎,每年的销售额约为6亿元人民币。这里的意思是宁阳县每年蛐蛐的销售收入可以赚到6亿人民币,bring in意为“赚得”。故填in。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:Zhao Jiuling是一个斗蛐蛐忠实爱好者。这里用形容词作定语,修饰后面的“cricket competitor”,committed意为“尽心尽力的,忠诚的,坚定的”,形容词,故填committed。
【45题详解】
考查形容词。句意:“它们对食物和配偶都非常挑剔,”他说。此处应用形容词picky作表语,be picky about…意为“对……挑剔”,故填picky。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The smell of roasted chicken filled the kitchen as we gathered for our usual Friday dinner. Having swallowed a big mouthful of chicken, I took a deep breath and began, “Could I invite some friends over tomorrow? Just for the afternoon?”
My parents exchanged a glance, then nodded readily. But beside me, my younger sister, Lily, froze. Her wide eyes locked onto mine. “But... what about Miracle? She’ll be terrified, Ethan.”
Miracle was a cat Lily rescued on a rainy day last winter. True to her name, the cat had survived. Yet, it remained a creature of profound shyness: Loud voices sent her trembling under beds; sudden movements made her jump. She wasn’t just a pet; she was a fragile soul Lily fiercely protected.
“I promise, Lily,” I insisted, leaning forward, meeting her worried gaze(凝视). “We’ll stay in the living room. No loud music, no shouting games. I’ll keep the back door shut tight, and I’ll warn everyone to be quiet. Miracle won’t even know they’re here.” I saw the conflict in her eyes — her desire to be supportive warring with her deep concern for the poor cat. After a tense silence, she finally gave a small, reluctant nod.
Saturday arrived with sunshine and laughter as my friends piled in. True to my word, I guided them straight to the living room, reminding them firmly about Miracle’s sensitivity.Initially, we chatted, played cards quietly. Glancing around, I spotted Miracle sliding silently down the hallway towards Lily’s room. Good, she’s keeping her distance, I thought, relieved.
As the afternoon wore on, however, the initial caution disappeared. A competitive board game led to enthusiastic cheers and laughter. Lost in the sheer fun of being with my friends, I forgot everything - he promise, the fragile creature.
After friends departed with cheerful goodbyes, I began tidying empty glasses, still lost in the happy scenes when Lily burst through the front door into her room. Then came her scream, “Ethan, Miracle is gone.”

A cold wave of fear rushed through me.

Luckily, we finally found Miracle in the backyard.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 A cold wave of fear rushed through me. I remembered opening the backdoor for some air. Miracle must have got scared out of the house then. My sister looked at me in disbelief. Tears welled in her eyes, spilling over. “You promised” The words weren’t shouted, but they cut deep. Shame burned my face. Without a word, I grabbed a flashlight and raced into the backyard, Lily closely behind, her calls for Miracle now desperate and choked with tears. We searched like crazy.
Luckily, we finally found Miracle in the backyard. There hidden under the thick bushes was Miracle. I dropped to my knees and scooped it up gently and placed it into Lily’s waiting hands. Once we went back home, I apologized sincerely, “I am so, so sorry.” I slowly reached out towards Lily, placing my hand gently over hers. “Can you forgive me?” Lily looked down at Miracle, then back at me, her eyes still wet but softening slightly. A fragile bridge of forgiveness began to form.
