Zou Bin, 27, a building worker from Xinhua, Hunan province, was the first Chinese to be awarded first prize for his splendid bricklaying technique at the World Skills Competition in 2015.
Zou’s story of construction began in his early childhood when he played at a construction site where his parents made a living, reported CCTV. As he grew older, he assisted them with their work. “At first, I was just helping them move the bricks and mix mortar (砂浆). Later on, I started learning the skill,” Zou told China Daily.
From the moment he became a building worker, Zou set strict standards for himself to build every wall perfectly, brick by brick. According to Zou, the more walls workers build, the more money they will get. “But if I’m not satisfied with my work, I would push it over and redo it. My fellow workers would rag me that no matter how well I do, I wouldn’t get extra pay for that. But I wanted to set the bar high for myself,” said the 27-year-old to China Daily. This working philosophy is surely part of the factors that contributed to his present glory.
When preparing for the competition, he not only practiced for over ten hours during the day, but also learned to read different diagrams at night, determining to build the best wall with all he can. Even if his hands were full of blisters (水泡), he didn’t stop. Finally he got on the stage and won a medal at his first show, reported China Daily.
Although he was crowned as a world champion, Zou is quite humble in life. Calling himself an ordinary migrant worker, he said there are many more outstanding craftsmen out there. Zou is only one representative of the tens of thousands of construction workers who pursue excellence in their work.
4. What do we know about Zou?
A. He learned building skills from his parents.
B. He was forced to work at a young age.
C. His parents encouraged him to be a bricklayer.
D. He won a medal at an international competition.
5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Zou’s career plan. B. Zou’s attitude toward his job.
C. Zou’s colleague’s opinions of him. D. Zou’s effort toward the competition.
6. What does the underlined word “rag” mean?
A. Congratulate. B. Laugh at. C. Show gratitude to. D. Follow.
7. Which of the following best describes Zou?
A. Creative and strict. B. Hardworking and humorous.
C. Determined and modest. D. Social and ambitious.
【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍一名叫邹彬的普通工人在平凡的刷墙工作中实现梦想,超越自我并获得国际大奖的励志故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Zou Bin, 27, a building worker from Xinhua, Hunan province, was the first Chinese to be awarded first prize for his splendid bricklaying technique at the World Skills Competition in 2015.(邹彬,27岁,来自湖南省新化市的一名建筑工人,是第一位在2015年世界技能大赛上因其出色的砌砖技术而获得一等奖的中国人)”可知,邹彬在一次国际比赛中获得了一等奖。故选D。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段第一句话“From the moment he became a building worker, Zou set strict standards for himself to build every wall perfectly, brick by brick.(从成为一名建筑工人的那一刻起,邹彬就为自己制定了严格的标准,一砖一瓦地把每一面墙都砌得完美无瑕)”以及邹彬说的话“But if I’m not satisfied with my work, I would push it over and redo it. My fellow workers would rag me that no matter how well I do, I wouldn’t get extra pay for that. But I wanted to set the bar high for myself(但如果我对自己的工作不满意,我会把它推倒重来。我的同事会rag我,无论我做得多好,我都不会因此得到额外的报酬。但我想为自己设定更高的标准)”可知,第三段主要讲述邹彬对自己工作态度的要求严格。故选B。
【6题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段第二句话“According to Zou, the more walls workers build, the more money they will get. (邹彬说,工人们建的墙越多,他们得到的钱就越多)”以及邹彬说的话“But if I’m not satisfied with my work, I would push it over and redo it.(但如果我对自己的工作不满意,我会把它推倒重来)”可知,工人的报酬是由他们所建造的墙的数量决定的,但是当邹彬不满意自己的工作时,他会推倒墙重做。由此可推知他的工友会嘲笑他无论他做的多好,都不会多拿钱。所以划线单词的意思为“嘲笑”。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段第一句话“When preparing for the competition, he not only practiced for over ten hours during the day, but also learned to read different diagrams at night, determining to build the best wall with all he can. (在准备比赛时,他不仅白天练习了十几个小时,晚上还学会了阅读不同的图表,决心竭尽全力建造最好的墙)”以及最后一段第一句话“Although he was crowned as a world champion, Zou is quite humble in life.(虽然邹彬是世界冠军,但他在生活中还是很谦虚的)”可推知,邹彬是一个意志力坚强但是又很谦虚的人。故选C。
C
If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. Many people use their phones before and after bedtime, especially young adults and teens. Still, you might want to stop soon. Using screens before bed or in bed is believed to disrupt sleep, although the exact reasons are not completely clear.
In a new study, researchers looked into this issue by using data from a large survey of 45, 202 university students in Norway. They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia (失眠) and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night.
“Sleep problems are very common among students and have serious effects on mental health, school performance, and overall well-being,” says Gunnhild Johnsen Hjetland, a clinical psychologist at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. “Because so many people use screens in bed, we wanted to see how different screen activities affect sleep. We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive (互动的) and can motivate (激发) emotions.”
However, the study found that using social media is no worse for sleep than other screen activities. The type of screen activity doesn’t matter as much as the total time spent using screens in bed. The researchers found no significant differences between social media and other screen activities. This suggests that using screens in general is the main cause of sleep problems, likely because it takes up time that could be used for resting.
“If you have trouble sleeping and think screen time might be a cause, try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep,” says Hjetland. “If you use screens, consider turning off notifications (通知) to reduce disruptions during the night.”
8. How does the author begin the argument?
A. By listing different opinions.
B. By referring to scientific data.
C. By mentioning a common act.
D. By analyzing cause and effect.
9. Why did researchers initially guess social media could affect sleep more?
A. It included emotional inspiration.
B. It contained violent content.
C. It was entirely used by students.
D. It required frequent physical interaction.
10. Which is the practical advice Hjetland provides?
A. Reading e-books instead of social media.
B. Avoiding using screen for a while before bed.
C. Increasing daytime physical activity.
D. Stopping using screens after supper.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Screen Time in Bed May Increase Sleeplessness
B. Good Sleep Is Key to Students’ Performance
C. Social Media Has the Worst Effect on Mental Health
D. Reading on Phones Is Common Among Teens and Young Adults
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了睡前使用电子设备对睡眠的影响,并通过一项大规模调查数据说明床上使用屏幕与失眠风险增加及睡眠时间减少的关联,最后给出实用建议。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段首句“If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. (如果你正在床上用手机阅读本文,你并不孤单。)”可知,作者通过描述一种普遍行为(睡前使用手机)引入话题。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段Gunnhild Johnsen Hjetland的观点“We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive and can motivate emotions. (我们认为社交媒体可能对睡眠更不利,因为它是互动的,可能激发情绪。)”可知,研究人员最初猜测社交媒体影响更大是因为其包含情感激发(emotional inspiration)。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段Hjetland的建议“try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep (减少床上使用屏幕的时间,睡前至少30-60分钟停止使用)”可知,实用建议是睡前一段时间避免使用屏幕。故选B项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。全文围绕“床上使用屏幕”与“睡眠问题”的关联展开,重点说明屏幕使用时间(而非活动类型)是导致失眠的主因,尤其是第一段的“Using screens before bed or in bed is believed to disrupt sleep (睡前或在床上使用屏幕被认为会扰乱睡眠)”以及第二段的“They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia (失眠) and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night. (他们发现,在床上使用屏幕会使失眠的几率增加59%,并且会导致每晚睡眠时间减少24分钟。)”可知,A项“床上使用屏幕可能增加失眠”最贴合主题,适合作标题。故选A项。
D
By the end of 2025, space exploration will witness significant milestones, blending government ambition and private innovation. America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025. They will orbit the Moon in a figure-of-eight path before returning to Earth, though potential delays remain.
India’s Gagnayaan human-spaceflight programme may make its mark in 2025, as the country hopes to join the list of nations that have sent astronauts into space using domestically developed rockets. Despite earlier hold-ups, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) plans to launch astronauts on a mission to spend several days in low-Earth orbit.
Unmanned missions will also take centre stage. In May 2025, China’s Tianwen-2 probe will depart for the near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamo’ oalewa, while the joint European-Japanese BepiColombo probe is set to reach Mercury in December. The European Space Agency (ESA) is preparing the first flight of Space Rider, a reusable robotic spaceplane designed to be launched by rocket and go back to Earth for reuse. Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions.
Private companies will play a crucial role in 2025’s space activities. SpaceX, already a dominant force, will continue testing its massive Starship rocket and expanding its Starlink satellite constellation (卫星群). The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas. Tech giant Amazon will advance its Kuiper satellite constellation, while Rocket Lab aims to launch its reusable Neutron rocket, building on the success of its smaller Electron rocket. Several privately funded lunar missions, including robotic landers and rovers, are scheduled to launch on a single SpaceX rocket in January. Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition.
12. What caused the delay in America’s Artemis programme?
A. Technical flaws in the spacecraft. B. Budget cuts for lunar missions.
C. Astronaut training complications. D. Launch site scheduling conflicts.
13. What makes the ESA’s Space Rider different from the Space Shuttle?
A. It is intended for crewed missions. B. It prioritizes reusable technology.
C. It functions as a robotic space lab. D. It requires no rocket launch.
14. What is the goal of SpaceX’s Starlink “direct-to-cell” service?
A. To provide high-speed internet in remote areas.
B. To enable communication in uncovered regions.
C. To station additional satellites in low-Earth orbit.
D. To compete with Amazon’s Kuiper constellation.
15. Why is the Venus Life Finder (VLF) mission significant?
A. It uses advanced telescopes to study Venus.
B. It represents the first private Mars exploration.
C. It owns a larger budget than government missions.
D. It demonstrates private capability in space research.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025.(美国的“阿尔忒弥斯”计划因“猎户座”飞船隔热罩和生命维持系统的技术问题而推迟,其目标是在2025年末派遣四名宇航员执行为期十天的绕月飞行任务。)”可知,飞船的技术缺陷导致了美国阿尔忒弥斯计划的推迟。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions.(与Space Shuttle不同,它是一台机器人太空实验室,专注于自动化科学任务。)”可知,Space Rider和Space Shuttle之间的不同之处是它是一个机器人空间实验室。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas.(该公司计划推出“手机直连卫星”服务,使普通智能手机能够直接与“Starlink”卫星连接,为服务不足的地区提供移动网络覆盖。)”可知,SpaceX公司的Starlink“手机直连卫星”服务的目标是使未覆盖地区能够实现通信。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition.(值得一提的是,Venus Life Finder (VLF)是麻省理工学院、火箭实验室和慈善家共同开展的一个耗资1000万美元的项目,计划使用一个简单的机器人仪器在金星云层中搜寻生命迹象——这凸显了如今私人项目在宇宙探索领域的雄心已可与政府预算相媲美。)”可知,Venus Life Finder (VLF)任务意义重大是因为它展示了私人在太空研究方面的能力。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了美国娱乐公司Stars Collective在香港国际影视展上宣布,正在根据中国古典名著《西游记》改编动画三部曲,分别是《八戒》《美猴王》和《哪吒》,旨在将东方神话展现给全球观众。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:Stars Collective影视集团正在制作一部雄心勃勃的动画电影三部曲,该三部曲以中国四大古典名著之一的《西游记》为基础,该公司在香港电影节的第一天透露了这一消息。本句已有谓语动词is producing,且空处没有连词,所以空处需用非谓语动词作后置定语修饰名词trilogy,动词base与名词trilogy之间是被动关系,所以空处需用过去分词based作后置定语。故填based。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意:这三部曲——《八戒》、《美猴王》和《哪吒》——旨在向全球观众介绍和推广东方神话,并借鉴了该领域最近的成功经验。表示“向……介绍和推广东方神话”,所以空处需用介词to。故填to。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:随着东方神话在娱乐领域越来越受欢迎,该项目应运而生,其中改编自中国神话的电子游戏《黑神话:悟空》自2024年8月发布以来,销量已创纪录,达到2800万份(收入12.5亿美元)。介词in后需接名词作宾语,entertain的名词为entertainment,在句中表“娱乐领域”,故填entertainment。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:同上。为with复合结构,宾语video game Black Myth: Wukong和动词hit之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词作宾补。故填hitting。
【40题详解】
考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意:《西游记》已被翻译成40多种语言,被誉为东方版的《奥德赛》和《指环王》的结合体。空处为定语从句的谓语动词。从句使用现在完成时态,表示过去的动作对现在造成的影响,且which指代Journey to the West,在从句中作主语,与动词translate之间为被动关系,空处谓语动词需用现在完成时态的被动语态:has/have been done,主语which指代Journey to the West,表单数概念。故填has been translated。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:同上。be described as...为固定搭配,表示“被描述为……”,所以空处需用介词as。故填as。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:Stars Collective影视集团创始人Peter Luo表示:“我们的《西游记》三部曲代表了全球叙事的新篇章。我们不仅仅是在改编一个经典故事,我们正在彻底改变东方神话在世界舞台上的呈现方式。我们的使命是创造一种非凡的体验,将文化和几代人联系起来,将永恒的故事与尖端技术结合起来。这个项目以创新的方式呈现中国神话,这是全球观众从未体验过的。”空处需用名词作Peter Luo的同位语,表示“Stars Collective影视集团创始人”,found的名词founder“创始人”符合句意,用单数形式。故填founder。
【43题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意同上。空处需引导名词性从句,作动词revolutionizing的宾语;从句中缺少方式状语,表示 “……的方式”,所以空处需用连接副词how引导宾语从句。故填how。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:同上。空处需用冠词修饰名词experience,此处表示泛指,表示“一种非凡的体验”,experience“体验”为可数名词,句中表泛指,所以空处需用不定冠词,extraordinary的发音以元音音素开头,所以空处需用不定冠词an。故填an。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:同上。空处需用关系词引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是innovative ways,指物,关系词在定语从句中作宾语,所以空处需用关系代词which引导定语从句。故填which。

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。
One day, Mrs. Green asked everyone about their dream jobs. The classroom suddenly got filled with eager voices as classmates enthusiastically shared their dreams. “I want to be a college professor,” said Sarah confidently. “I dream of becoming a basketball player,” exclaimed Mike with light in his eye. The air was filled with dreams of doctors, nurses, police and various professions.
When Mrs. Green turned her attention to me, inquiring about my future career, I hesitated. “I don’t know yet,” I admitted. Then she asked if I wished to follow in my dad’s footsteps. “No,” I replied firmly.
My dad is a distinguished doctor with a demanding schedule, who often finds himself engaged in the responsibilities of his job. Thus, he often return s home late in the evening. The limited time we spent together during my growth created a noticeable distance in our relationship. I had such a lot to complain about his job and thus being a doctor would be the last option I would take.
Upon hearing my response, Mrs. Green remained silent. Instead, she encouraged me to reflect further.
A turning point came when our school organized a cultural festival. It was an important event, and we had been preparing for it for a long time. For my role, I needed to purchase a costume. Unfortunately, my mother was abroad, so the responsibility fell on my father. Unwillingly, I agreed, acknowledging that there was no other choice.
In the mall, my dad’s unfamiliarity with the shopping list became apparent. Despite Mom’s thorough list, we wandered aimlessly through the floors, struggling to find the necessary items. As we did, I felt a growing sense of discomfort.
Suddenly, a chaos drew our attention. A crowd had gathered, and someone was shouting for help. It turned out that an elderly customer had a fall, and onlookers were at a loss on how to assist.
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。
Without hesitation, my father rushed forward.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For the first time, I felt a sense of pride in his work.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Without hesitation, my father rushed forward. He pushed through the crowd, his demeanor calm and collected despite the chaos around him. Kneeling beside the elderly customer, he quickly assessed the situation and instructed bystanders to call an ambulance. With gentle hands, he comforted the frightened old man, assuring him that help was on the way. As he tended to the injured, my father’s expertise as a doctor shone through, and I couldn’t help but be impressed. His actions spoke louder than any words ever could, showing me a side of him I had never seen before. The crowd dispersed, and when the ambulance arrived, my father carefully explained the situation to the paramedics before they took the elderly man away. Standing there, watching him, I realized that being a doctor wasn’t just about long hours and sacrifices; it was also about making a difference in people’s lives.
For the first time, I felt a sense of pride in his work. As we walked out of the mall, I couldn’t help but ask him about his experiences as a doctor, and he shared stories of the moments that had brought him joy and fulfillment. I listened intently, seeing him in a new light. That night, when he returned home late, instead of feeling annoyed, I greeted him with a hug and thanked him for what he did. From then on, our relationship began to mend, and I found myself looking up to him in a way I never had before. My perspective on his job changed, and I realized that being a doctor wasn’t just a demanding profession; it was a calling that allowed him to touch lives and make a real impact. As I grew older, I even found myself considering following in his footsteps, inspired by his dedication and compassion.

Zou Bin, 27, a building worker from Xinhua, Hunan province, was the first Chinese to be awarded first prize for his splendid bricklaying technique at the World Skills Competition in 2015.
Zou’s story of construction began in his early childhood when he played at a construction site where his parents made a living, reported CCTV. As he grew older, he assisted them with their work. “At first, I was just helping them move the bricks and mix mortar (砂浆). Later on, I started learning the skill,” Zou told China Daily.
From the moment he became a building worker, Zou set strict standards for himself to build every wall perfectly, brick by brick. According to Zou, the more walls workers build, the more money they will get. “But if I’m not satisfied with my work, I would push it over and redo it. My fellow workers would rag me that no matter how well I do, I wouldn’t get extra pay for that. But I wanted to set the bar high for myself,” said the 27-year-old to China Daily. This working philosophy is surely part of the factors that contributed to his present glory.
When preparing for the competition, he not only practiced for over ten hours during the day, but also learned to read different diagrams at night, determining to build the best wall with all he can. Even if his hands were full of blisters (水泡), he didn’t stop. Finally he got on the stage and won a medal at his first show, reported China Daily.
Although he was crowned as a world champion, Zou is quite humble in life. Calling himself an ordinary migrant worker, he said there are many more outstanding craftsmen out there. Zou is only one representative of the tens of thousands of construction workers who pursue excellence in their work.
4. What do we know about Zou?
A. He learned building skills from his parents.
B. He was forced to work at a young age.
C. His parents encouraged him to be a bricklayer.
D. He won a medal at an international competition.
5. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. Zou’s career plan. B. Zou’s attitude toward his job.
C. Zou’s colleague’s opinions of him. D. Zou’s effort toward the competition.
6. What does the underlined word “rag” mean?
A. Congratulate. B. Laugh at. C. Show gratitude to. D. Follow.
7. Which of the following best describes Zou?
A. Creative and strict. B. Hardworking and humorous.
C. Determined and modest. D. Social and ambitious.

If you’re reading this in bed on your phone, you’re not alone. Many people use their phones before and after bedtime, especially young adults and teens. Still, you might want to stop soon. Using screens before bed or in bed is believed to disrupt sleep, although the exact reasons are not completely clear.
In a new study, researchers looked into this issue by using data from a large survey of 45, 202 university students in Norway. They found that using screens in bed is linked to a 59 percent higher chance of insomnia (失眠) and can result in 24 minutes less sleep each night.
“Sleep problems are very common among students and have serious effects on mental health, school performance, and overall well-being,” says Gunnhild Johnsen Hjetland, a clinical psychologist at the Norwegian Institute of Public Health. “Because so many people use screens in bed, we wanted to see how different screen activities affect sleep. We thought social media might be worse for sleep because it is interactive (互动的) and can motivate (激发) emotions.”
However, the study found that using social media is no worse for sleep than other screen activities. The type of screen activity doesn’t matter as much as the total time spent using screens in bed. The researchers found no significant differences between social media and other screen activities. This suggests that using screens in general is the main cause of sleep problems, likely because it takes up time that could be used for resting.
“If you have trouble sleeping and think screen time might be a cause, try to reduce the use of screen in bed, and stop using screens at least 30 to 60 minutes before sleep,” says Hjetland. “If you use screens, consider turning off notifications (通知) to reduce disruptions during the night.”
8. How does the author begin the argument?
A. By listing different opinions.
B. By referring to scientific data.
C. By mentioning a common act.
D. By analyzing cause and effect.
9. Why did researchers initially guess social media could affect sleep more?
A. It included emotional inspiration.
B. It contained violent content.
C. It was entirely used by students.
D. It required frequent physical interaction.
10. Which is the practical advice Hjetland provides?
A. Reading e-books instead of social media.
B. Avoiding using screen for a while before bed.
C. Increasing daytime physical activity.
D. Stopping using screens after supper.
11. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Screen Time in Bed May Increase Sleeplessness
B. Good Sleep Is Key to Students’ Performance
C. Social Media Has the Worst Effect on Mental Health
D. Reading on Phones Is Common Among Teens and Young Adults
D
By the end of 2025, space exploration will witness significant milestones, blending government ambition and private innovation. America’s Artemis programme, delayed by technical issues with the Orion spacecraft’s heat shield and life-support systems, aims to send four astronauts on a ten-day lunar fly-by mission in late 2025. They will orbit the Moon in a figure-of-eight path before returning to Earth, though potential delays remain.
India’s Gagnayaan human-spaceflight programme may make its mark in 2025, as the country hopes to join the list of nations that have sent astronauts into space using domestically developed rockets. Despite earlier hold-ups, the Indian Space Research Organisation (ISRO) plans to launch astronauts on a mission to spend several days in low-Earth orbit.
Unmanned missions will also take centre stage. In May 2025, China’s Tianwen-2 probe will depart for the near-Earth asteroid 469219 Kamo’ oalewa, while the joint European-Japanese BepiColombo probe is set to reach Mercury in December. The European Space Agency (ESA) is preparing the first flight of Space Rider, a reusable robotic spaceplane designed to be launched by rocket and go back to Earth for reuse. Unlike the Space Shuttle, it serves as a robotic space laboratory, focusing on automated scientific missions.
Private companies will play a crucial role in 2025’s space activities. SpaceX, already a dominant force, will continue testing its massive Starship rocket and expanding its Starlink satellite constellation (卫星群). The company plans to launch the “direct-to-cell” service, enabling ordinary smartphones to connect directly with Starlink satellites and provide mobile coverage in underserved areas. Tech giant Amazon will advance its Kuiper satellite constellation, while Rocket Lab aims to launch its reusable Neutron rocket, building on the success of its smaller Electron rocket. Several privately funded lunar missions, including robotic landers and rovers, are scheduled to launch on a single SpaceX rocket in January. Notable is the Venus Life Finder (VLF), a $10m joint project by MIT, Rocket Lab, and philanthropists, set to search for life in Venus’ clouds with a simple robotic instrument — highlighting how private efforts now match government budgets in cosmic ambition.
12. What caused the delay in America’s Artemis programme?
A. Technical flaws in the spacecraft. B. Budget cuts for lunar missions.
C. Astronaut training complications. D. Launch site scheduling conflicts.
13. What makes the ESA’s Space Rider different from the Space Shuttle?
A. It is intended for crewed missions. B. It prioritizes reusable technology.
C. It functions as a robotic space lab. D. It requires no rocket launch.
14. What is the goal of SpaceX’s Starlink “direct-to-cell” service?
A. To provide high-speed internet in remote areas.

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。
One day, Mrs. Green asked everyone about their dream jobs. The classroom suddenly got filled with eager voices as classmates enthusiastically shared their dreams. “I want to be a college professor,” said Sarah confidently. “I dream of becoming a basketball player,” exclaimed Mike with light in his eye. The air was filled with dreams of doctors, nurses, police and various professions.
When Mrs. Green turned her attention to me, inquiring about my future career, I hesitated. “I don’t know yet,” I admitted. Then she asked if I wished to follow in my dad’s footsteps. “No,” I replied firmly.
My dad is a distinguished doctor with a demanding schedule, who often finds himself engaged in the responsibilities of his job. Thus, he often return s home late in the evening. The limited time we spent together during my growth created a noticeable distance in our relationship. I had such a lot to complain about his job and thus being a doctor would be the last option I would take.
Upon hearing my response, Mrs. Green remained silent. Instead, she encouraged me to reflect further.
A turning point came when our school organized a cultural festival. It was an important event, and we had been preparing for it for a long time. For my role, I needed to purchase a costume. Unfortunately, my mother was abroad, so the responsibility fell on my father. Unwillingly, I agreed, acknowledging that there was no other choice.
In the mall, my dad’s unfamiliarity with the shopping list became apparent. Despite Mom’s thorough list, we wandered aimlessly through the floors, struggling to find the necessary items. As we did, I felt a growing sense of discomfort.
Suddenly, a chaos drew our attention. A crowd had gathered, and someone was shouting for help. It turned out that an elderly customer had a fall, and onlookers were at a loss on how to assist.
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。
Without hesitation, my father rushed forward.

For the first time, I felt a sense of pride in his work.
