Here is what you can see and do in America’s steel city. FEDERAL GALLEY A hip food hall within walking distance of the Andy Warhol Museum, Federal Galley serves as a testing ground for startup restaurants, presenting cuisines from all corners of the globe beneath its corrugated tin roof. With a changing list of restaurants, there’s something for every appetite, from American breakfasts to short ribs, fancy salads and much more. MATTRESS FACTORY Step into a bewildering world of darkness, light and texture at this contemporary art museum (it calls itself a “laboratory”), housed in a former mattress storehouse. Founded in 1977, it offers four floors of interactive exhibits — both revolving exhibitions and permanent pieces by the likes of Greer Lankton, James Turrell, Yayoi Kusama. AUGUST WILSON AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTER Pittsburgh native August Wilson was a pioneer for Black playwrights and poets in the 1960s and ‘70s. His 10-play Century Cycle(recording the Black experience in Pittsburgh in the 20th century) is a key piece of US theatre; today visitors can see the works staged at this cultural centre, whose calendar of events, poetry readings and talks honor Wilson’s legacy. CARNEGIE MUSEUMS The Oakland neighbourhood boasts a complex of museums and galleries. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History puts visitors face to face with two towering dinosaurs and the Wertz Gallery shines with its displays of jewels and gems; the Carnegie Museum of Art meanwhile, is home to works by the world’s finest impressionist painters, including van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro and Henri Le Sidaner. 1. What does Federal Galley have to offer? A. A bite of the world. B. Entrance to a museum. C. A place for food inspection. D. Education in starting restaurants. 2. Which man plays a role in Black literature? A. Andy Warhol. B. James Turrell. C. August Wilson. D. Henri Le Sidaner. 3. Who are likely to visit Mattress Factory and Carnegie Museums? A. Lab workers. B. History lovers. C. Gem collectors. D. Art appreciators. 【答案】1. A 2. C 3. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了四个匹兹堡当地可供游玩的地方。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据FEDERAL GALLEY部分“A hip food hall within walking distance of the Andy Warhol Museum, Federal Galley serves as a testing ground for startup restaurants, presenting cuisines from all corners of the globe beneath its corrugated tin roof.(在安迪·沃霍尔博物馆附近步行可达的一处时尚美食广场——联邦厨房，是初创餐厅的试验场。其波纹铁皮屋顶下，汇聚了来自世界各地的美食)”可知，联邦厨房能提供品味世界一角美味的服务。故选A。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据AUGUST WILSON AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTER部分“Pittsburgh native August Wilson was a pioneer for Black playwrights and poets in the 1960s and ‘70s.(匹兹堡人奥古斯特·威尔逊是20世纪60年代至70年代黑人剧作家和诗人的先驱之一)”可知，在黑人文学作品中，奥古斯特·威尔逊扮演了重要角色。故选C。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据MATTRESS FACTORY部分“Founded in 1977, it offers four floors of interactive exhibits — both revolving exhibitions and permanent pieces by the likes of Greer Lankton, James Turrell, Yayo Kusama.(该博物馆成立于1977年，拥有四层的互动展览区域——既有旋转式的展览，也有诸如格里尔·兰顿、詹姆斯·特瑞尔、草间弥生等艺术家的永久性作品)”和CARNEGIE MUSEUMS部分“The Carnegie Museum of Natural History puts visitors face to face with two towering dinosaurs and the Wertz Gallery shines with its displays of jewels and gems; the Carnegie Museum of Art, meanwhile, is home to works by the world’s finest impressionist painters, including van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro and Henri Le Sidaner.(卡内基自然历史博物馆让游客能够近距离观赏到两具高大的恐龙标本，而韦茨画廊则以展示珠宝和宝石的展品而熠熠生辉；与此同时，卡内基艺术博物馆则收藏着世界上最杰出的印象派画家的作品，其中包括梵高、莫奈、毕沙罗和亨利·勒·斯丹纳的作品)”可知，艺术鉴赏家可能会去参观床垫工厂和卡内基博物馆。故选D。 B The room on this day is in a Florida assisted living facility and is full of residents, staff, family, and even a local news photographer. Yet Magic wanders over and rests her head in the lap of one particular resident, who begins talking to her. “Isn’t she beautiful?” the resident says. The activities director begins to cry. It turns out that the woman hadn’t spoken a word since she arrived three years ago. That’s the Magic touch. Our 14-year-old therapy black horse has won the hearts of many. She’s been called in to cheer up survivors of tragedy and natural disaster. Often our little black pony comes home with stains on her white nose from being kissed by all the ladies. Magic also has a very special relationship with children in hospital care. One little boy who had both a heart transplant and leukemia said Magic made his face hurt from smiling so much. To work indoors, all the miniature horses have to go through basic training. Magic is no exception, but proves to be exceptional: riding elevators, taking stairs, and staying calm around loud noises. We often play the song “Do You Believe in Magic” before bringing her in. She knows exactly what that means. She raises her ears and does a little prance (腾跃) for everyone. At one facility, a woman was waiting in the lobby bright and early on the morning Magic was scheduled to visit. At another, one man’s family contacted the facility to alert them that he’d taken a turn for the worse: He’d just called and said there was a tiny horse in his room. They were relieved to learn it was not the hallucinatory (幻觉的) kind — the Magic kind. 4. What brings the activities director to tears? A. The change of a resident. B. The assistance from a facility. C. The discussion on a miniature horse. D. The interaction with a news photographer. 5. What is a characteristic of Magic’s job? A. Carrying out rescue. B. Attending to sick kids. C. Encouraging friendship. D. Offering comfort and joy. 6 What does Magic’s performance in Para.3 show? A. Magic is a natural leader. B. Magic is a household name. C. Magic is a figure in the lyrics. D. Magic is a seasoned professional. 7. Which of the following columns is the text probably selected from? A. Pet Pal Tales. B. Animal Behavior. C. Conservation Insights. D. Horse Training Guidance. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。小矮马Magic作为一匹经验丰富的治疗马，给很多人带来了安慰和快乐。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第一段“Yet Magic wanders over and rests her head in the lap of one particular resident, who begins talking to her. “Isn’t she beautiful?” the resident says. The activities director begins to cry. It turns out that the woman hadn’t spoken a word since she arrived three years ago.(然而，Magic漫步过来，将头靠在一位特定住户的腿上，这位住户开始和它说话。‘她真漂亮，是不是？’这位住户说道。活动主管开始落泪。原来，这位女士自三年前来到这里后，就从未说过一个字。)”可知，活动主管落泪是因为原本三年未说话的住户开口了，即住户发生了变化。故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。 根据第二段“She’s been called in to cheer up survivors of tragedy and natural disaster.(它被请来安慰悲剧和自然灾害的幸存者。)”以及“One little boy who had both a heart transplant and leukemia said Magic made his face hurt from smiling so much.(一个既接受过心脏移植又患有白血病的小男孩说，Magic让他笑得脸都疼了。)”可知，Magic的工作特点是为人们提供安慰与欢乐。故选D。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。 根据第三段“To work indoors, all the miniature horses have to go through basic training. Magic is no exception, but proves to be exceptional: riding elevators, taking stairs, and staying calm around loud noises. We often play the song ‘Do You Believe in Magic’ before bringing her in. She knows exactly what that means. She raises her ears and does a little prance (腾跃) for everyone.(要在室内工作，所有的小型马都必须接受基础训练。Magic也不例外，但它表现得格外出色：能乘坐电梯、走楼梯，在嘈杂声中也能保持冷静。我们带它进来前，经常播放歌曲《Do You Believe in Magic》。它完全知道这意味着什么，会竖起耳朵，为大家做一个小小的腾跃动作。)”可知，Magic经过专业训练后，能熟练完成室内工作所需的动作，还能理解特定指令，展现出“经验丰富的专业素养”。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。 通读全文，尤其是根据第二段“She’s been called in to cheer up survivors of tragedy and natural disaster.(它被请来安慰悲剧和自然灾害的幸存者。)”以及“One little boy who had both a heart transplant and leukemia said Magic made his face hurt from smiling so much.(一个既接受过心脏移植又患有白血病的小男孩说，Magic让他笑得脸都疼了。)”可知，本文核心是讲述治疗用小马Magic与人类之间的温馨故事，展现其作为“宠物伙伴”的价值，符合“Pet Pal Tales”的专栏定位。故选A。 C How can anyone feel bored in a world with social media, streaming movies, and the ability to download just about every book in the world? It may sound paradoxical, but according to a study published in Communications Psychology by Katy Y. Y. Tam and Michael Inlicht, digital media does make us more bored. Why am I bored all the time? According to researchers, here’s what’s happening. Given that we have access to entertainment whenever we like, the bar for what we consider entertaining or stimulating has increased. It’s like when someone is an addict and they keep needing more and more of the same substance to get the high they desire. Another reason flipping through TikTok leaves you feeling bored and listless is that digital media divides our attention, making it hard to focus on the activity at hand — we quickly switch between videos and activities, our phones pulse and beep with notifications (通知), and texts pop up on the screen. As we pointed out with the Dorito Theory a while back, sometimes experiences that aren’t fulfilling can still be maximally addictive. As we scroll (滚动浏览) and try to come across something that cures our boredom, it’s time to ask ourselves how we feel after the experience. Did logging in deliver the experience we thought we’d get? Or, did the crazy search for content keep us occupied until the boredom came back again? “If people want a more enjoyable experience when watching videos, they can try to stay focused on the content and minimize digital switching, like paying for a more immersive experience in a movie theater. More enjoyment comes from immersing oneself in online videos rather than swiping through them,” Tam suggests. However, this may prove more complicated than years ago, as our attention spans are much shorter. 8. What does the underlined word “paradoxical” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Ignorant. B. Unfamiliar. C. Dangerous. D. Contradictory. 9. What makes people bored when using TikTok? A. Lowered stimulation levels. B. Ineffectiveness in relaxation. C. Constant interruptions of focus. D. Reduction in a sense of meaning. 10. What does Tam suggest readers do? A. Purchase online videos. B. Engage in certain content. C. Improve attention spans. D. Seek pleasant experiences. 11. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why Access to Entertainment Is Harmful B. How the Dorito Theory Relates to Us in Life C. Why Digital Media Contributes to Our Boredom D. How Smartphone Addiction Affects Our Psychology 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出社交媒体等数字媒体普及的世界里人们仍感无聊，研究显示数字媒体会加剧无聊，分析原因并给出专注内容、减少切换等缓解建议，但因注意力缩短实施有难度。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“How can anyone feel bored in a world with social media, streaming movies, and the ability to download just about every book in the world?(在一个拥有社交媒体、在线电影播放以及几乎能下载世界范围内所有书籍的世界里，人们怎么会感到无聊呢？)”可知，在一个拥有社交媒体、流媒体电影，以及几乎能下载全球所有书籍的世界里，会有人感到无聊，这听起来是矛盾的。故划线词意思是“矛盾的”。故选D。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Another reason flipping through TikTok leaves you feeling bored and listless is that digital media divides our attention, making it hard to focus on the activity at hand — we quickly switch between videos and activities, our phones pulse and beep with notifications (通知), and texts pop up on the screen.(另一个让你在浏览 TikTok 时感到无聊和无精打采的原因是，数字媒体会分散我们的注意力，使得我们难以专注于当前的活动——我们会频繁地在不同的视频和活动中切换，手机上不断有通知提示响起，屏幕上还会不断弹出短信)”可知，使用TikTok时让人感到无聊的原因是持续的注意力干扰。故选C。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段““If people want a more enjoyable experience when watching videos, they can try to stay focused on the content and minimize digital switching, like paying for a more immersive experience in a movie theater. More enjoyment comes from immersing oneself in online videos rather than swiping through them,” Tam suggests.(塔姆建议道：“如果人们希望在观看视频时能获得更愉悦的体验，他们可以尝试专注于视频内容，并尽量减少频繁切换电子设备的操作，就像在电影院里为获得更沉浸式的观影体验而付费一样。更多的乐趣来自于全身心投入到在线视频中，而非随意翻阅浏览。”)”可知，塔姆建议读者参与某些内容。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“How can anyone feel bored in a world with social media, streaming movies, and the ability to download just about every book in the world?(在一个拥有社交媒体、在线电影播放以及几乎能下载世界范围内所有书籍的世界里，人们怎么会感到无聊呢？)”以及文章指出社交媒体等数字媒体普及的世界里人们仍感无聊，研究显示数字媒体会加剧无聊，分析原因并给出专注内容、减少切换等缓解建议，但因注意力缩短实施有难度。从而推知，C选项“为何数字媒体导致我们感到无聊”最符合文章标题。故选C。 D A baby’s early life has a lot of milestones: first giggle (咯咯笑), first tooth, first step. A brain scanning study adds to the list: first memory. Infants can form memories, and they use a memory structure in the brain called the hippocampus, a seahorse-shaped structure, to do it, researchers report in Science. Young babies can be difficult research subjects. But for the new study, awake babies were kept calm in a functional MRI scanner with a parent nearby and earphones to protect them from alarming sounds. In the scanner, these babies, who ranged from 4 months old to nearly 25 months old, saw images, one after another, of people, places or objects. All the while, scientists recorded blood flow in the babies’ brains. Occasionally, the babies were tested with a pair of images, one of which they had seen before. If the babies looked longer at the previously seen image, researchers reasoned, they likely remembered it. In the study, 13 babies were younger than a year, and 13 babies were older than a year. The older babies could remember about half of the images they had seen before. And this memory feat agreed with brain activity in a part of the hippocampus. The results add to other evidence from earlier research that babies, the human sort as well as rats and mice, can in fact form memories, and start to answer how. Still, the results don’t explain why we can’t recall some of the earliest moments of our lives, a phenomenon known as infantile amnesia. It’s possible that these memories aren’t effectively stored elsewhere in the brain. Or it could be that neural (神经的) traces persist but aren’t able to be called back up. 12. How does the author present the topic in the first paragraph? A. By providing data. B. By listing examples. C. By analyzing a study. D. By quoting a scientist. 13. What is paragraph 3 mainly about? A. The process of the research. B. The function of the scanner. C. The activities of the parents. D. The diversity of the subjects. 14. What makes scientists tell if babies remember an image? A. Whether the image is seen previously. B. Whether babies pay more attention to it. C. Whether the image is shown long enough. D. Whether babies reach over one year of age. 15. What can be inferred from the results? A. This study refines relevant research to some extent. B. Gradual brain damage leads to inability to remember. C. The hippocampus determines mammals’ learning ability. D. Rats and mice are good at storing the earliest memories. 【答案】12 B 13. A 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了科学家通过脑部扫描研究发现婴儿能够形成记忆，并利用海马体结构进行记忆。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“A baby’s early life has a lot of milestones: first giggle (咯咯笑), first tooth, first step. A brain scanning study adds to the list: first memory. (婴儿的早期生活有很多里程碑：第一次咯咯笑，第一颗牙，第一步。一项脑部扫描研究增加了这个列表：第一次记忆。)”可知，作者通过列举婴儿生活中的一些里程碑事件来引出“第一次记忆”这个话题。故选B。 【13题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Young babies can be difficult research subjects. But for the new study, awake babies were kept calm in a functional MRI scanner with a parent nearby and earphones to protect them from alarming sounds. In the scanner, these babies, who ranged from 4 months old to nearly 25 months old, saw images, one after another, of people, places or objects. All the while, scientists recorded blood flow in the babies’ brains. (年幼的婴儿可能是很难研究的研究对象。但在这项新研究中，研究人员让清醒的婴儿在功能性核磁共振扫描仪中保持安静，旁边有父母陪伴，并戴上耳机以保护他们免受令人担忧的声音的干扰。在扫描仪中，这些年龄从4个月到近25个月不等的婴儿一个接一个地看到了人、地点或物体的图像。与此同时，科学家们记录了婴儿大脑中的血液流动。)”可知，本段主要介绍了这项研究的过程，包括如何让婴儿在扫描仪中保持安静、他们看到了什么以及科学家们记录了什么。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Occasionally, the babies were tested with a pair of images, one of which they had seen before. If the babies looked longer at the previously seen image, researchers reasoned, they likely remembered it. (偶尔，研究人员会给婴儿看一对图像，其中一个是他们以前见过的。研究人员推断，如果婴儿盯着之前见过的图像看的时间更长，那么他们可能就记住了它。)”可知，科学家们通过观察婴儿是否对之前见过的图像注视时间更长来判断他们是否记住了这个图像。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The results add to other evidence from earlier research that babies, the human sort as well as rats and mice, can in fact form memories, and start to answer how. (这些结果为早期研究提供了更多证据，表明婴儿，包括人类婴儿以及老鼠，实际上能够形成记忆，并开始解释这是如何发生的。)”可知，这项研究在一定程度上完善了之前关于婴儿记忆能力的研究。故选A。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Building strength helps you stay healthy as well as fit. Try these ways to make the most of your muscles. ● Use it or lose it. We start to lose muscle mass from the age of 30, but it’s never too late to improve it. If you do, it can help with your balance, reduce your risk of falls, increase bone density, which will help guard against osteoporosis (骨质疏松), and benefit heart health too. ___16___ ● Start small. ___17___ There’s no need to go to the gym and lift dumbbells or kettlebells if that’s not your thing. You can use your own body weight to build strength. There are plenty of free beginners’ workouts on YouTube and on the NHS website. And resistance bands — stretchy elastic strips (弹性带) — are just as good. ___18___ They come in different tension levels. Don’t forget to have rest days to allow your body to recover. ● Pack the protein. Building strength isn’t all about getting physical. ___19___ Protein is key. Include it in all your meals in the form of lean meat, fish, beans, tofu, eggs or dairy produce. Focus on mixing protein and carb, such as fruit, rice, sweet potato and quinoa, as these will help with muscle growth. ● ___20___ Exercising with others will help you stay motivated and it’s always nice to be with like-minded people. Find yourself an exercise buddy, such as a friend or family member; do live Zoom classes or go to in-real-life gym classes. A. Be sociable. B. Create a motivation. C. Meanwhile, you should eat well. D. Or maybe it’s just all of those combined. E. In fact, they may make you less subject to injury. F. Don’t go crazy—you’ll end up doing yourself a damage. G. Another plus is that you’ll look more toned and feel more confident. 【答案】16. G 17. F 18. E 19. C 20. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了力量训练能让人保持身体健康，本文给出了一些运动建议。 【16题详解】 前文“If you do, it can help with your balance, reduce your risk of falls, increase bone density, which will help guard against osteoporosis (骨质疏松), and benefit heart health too.( 如果你这样做，它可以帮助你保持平衡，减少跌倒的风险，增加骨密度，这将有助于预防骨质疏松症，也有益于心脏健康。)”列举肌肉锻炼的好处（改善平衡、降低跌倒风险、增加骨密度、有益心脏健康），G 项“Another plus is that you’ll look more toned and feel more confident.( 此外，你会看起来更紧致，感觉更自信。)”是对锻炼好处的补充，“Another plus”（另一个好处）衔接前文，符合逻辑。故选G项。 【17题详解】 本段主题是“Start small.( 从小处着手。)”，F项“Don’t go crazy—you’ll end up doing yourself a damage.( 别太疯狂 —— 否则你会伤到自己。)”提醒避免过度锻炼，与“Start small”的核心建议呼应，为后文“There’s no need to go to the gym and lift dumbbells or kettlebells if that’s not your thing.( 如果你不喜欢举重，就没必要去健身房举哑铃或壶铃。)”介绍简易锻炼方式（自重训练、弹性带）铺垫，避免读者因急于求成受伤。故选F项。 【18题详解】 前文“And resistance bands— stretchy elastic strips (弹性带) — are just as good.( 抗阻带——有弹性松紧带——也一样好。)”提到“阻力带也同样有效”，E 项“In fact, they may make you less subject to injury.( 事实上，它们可能让你更少受伤。)”进一步说明阻力带的优势，“they”指代前文“resistance bands”，补充其安全性，使对该锻炼工具的介绍更完整。故选E项。 【19题详解】 前文“Building strength isn’t all about getting physical.( 增强力量并不仅仅是锻炼身体。)”指出“增强力量不全是体力活动”，以及后文“Protein is key.( 蛋白质是关键。)”聚焦“蛋白质是关键”，强调饮食的重要性，C项“Meanwhile, you should eat well.( 同时，你应该吃得好。)”承上启下，从“体力锻炼”过渡到“饮食搭配”，符合段落逻辑。故选C项。 【20题详解】 根据下文“Exercising with others will help you stay motivated and it’s always nice to be with like-minded people. Find yourself an exercise buddy, such as a friend or family member; do live Zoom classes or go to in-real-life gym classes.( 和别人一起锻炼可以帮助你保持动力，和志同道合的人在一起总是很好的。给自己找一个运动伙伴，比如朋友或家人；参加现场Zoom课程或参加现实生活中的健身课程。)”可知，本段围绕“与他人一起锻炼有助于保持动力”展开，建议找锻炼伙伴、参加线上或线下课程，核心是“社交性锻炼”。A 项“Be sociable(保持社交)”概括段落主旨，作为小标题准确且简洁，其他选项（如 B“创造动力”）未突出“与他人互动”的核心。故选A项。 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。 I am working at Chandler Park Aquatic Center, in a red swimsuit and a T-shirt with my job title in big letters on the back.

And lifeguards and instructors are in short supply”可知，“泳池成本高、救生人员不足”这些现实情况对游泳者来说是“不利条件”，don’t favor直接体现“现实情况与游泳者需求的对立”。故选B。 【32题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。​句意：即使现在，建造和维护泳池的成本也很高。A. examine检查；B. inspect视察，检查；C. clean打扫；D. maintain维护。根据前文“expensive to build”可知，“建造”是泳池的“初始投入”，后文需对应“建成后的持续投入”，maintain指“长期保养、维修”。故选D。 【33题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。​句意：而且救生员和教练供应短缺。A. demand需求；B. time时间；C. money钱；D. supply供应。根据后文“some pools are offering signing bonuses”可知，“提供签约奖金”是企业吸引人才的常见手段，其背景是“人才供应不足”，in short supply直接对应后文“吸引人才的举措”。故选D。 【34题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。​句意：如果你会一点游泳，就去上些课提高自己的水平。A. competence能力，水平；B. relationship关系；C. memory记忆；D. efficiency效率。​根据前文“take some lessons”可知，“上课”的目的是“提升游泳能力”。故选A。 【35题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。​句意：现在缺口如此明显，一些泳池正在提供签约奖金。A. mysterious神秘的；B. neglected被忽视的；C. obvious明显的；D. limited有限的。根据后文“some pools are offering signing bonuses”可知，“提供签约奖金”是“缺口存在”的直观表现，说明缺口已经“被广泛察觉、表现明显”。故选C。 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。 The Five Elements Theory, or Wu Xing, is ___36___ core concept in traditional Chinese philosophy and medicine, detailing the interaction among Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water.

Additionally 44. which 45. showcasing 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章简要介绍了“五行”这一概念以及其在中医和其他文化艺术方面的应用。 【36题详解】 考查冠词。句意：五行学说是中国传统哲学和医学的核心概念，详细描述了木、火、土、金、水之间的相互作用。concept是可数名词单数形式，此处为泛指，应用不定冠词修饰，定语core的发音是辅音音素开头，应用a。故填a。 【37题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：五行学说的起源可以追溯到中国古代文献，如《周礼》，这是中国早期的经典。空处为句子谓语动词，陈述客观事实，应用一般现在时。主语beginning是单数，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填dates。 【38题详解】 考查名词。句意：它被用来解释生命和自然的各个方面，包括人体的构造、季节的变化和人际关系的动态。作宾语，且被名词所有格body’s修饰，名词construction“构造”符合题意，抽象概念，不可数。故填 construction。 【39题详解】 考查动词。句意：在中医中，五行被用来对健康的各个方面进行分类，包括器官、组织、感觉和情绪，并了解它们之间的相互依存和平衡。be used to do“被用来做”是固定搭配，空处应填动词原形， category的动词形式为categorize。故填 categorize。 【40题详解】 考查连词。句意：在中医中，五行被用来对健康的各个方面进行分类，包括器官、组织、感觉和情绪，并了解它们之间的相互依存和平衡。空处前后是语义上的并列关系，所以用并列连词。故填and。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：每一种元素都与身体的特定器官相对应：木与肝脏和胆囊相对应，火与心脏和小肠相对应，土与脾胃相对应，金与肺和大肠相对应，水与肾脏和膀胱相对应。correspond to/ with 与……相一致。故填to/ with。 【42题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：五行学说从医学延伸到各种文化实践和艺术。空处被cultural修饰，需要用名词，且practice是可数名词。根据various可知，用复数名词。故填practices。 【43题详解】 考查副词。句意：此外，该理论在中国音乐中也有作用，在中国音乐中，音阶和作曲与不同的元素有关。空处作副词修饰整个句子。由于本空位于句首，首字母需大写。故填Additionally。 【44题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：此外，该理论在中国音乐中也有作用，在中国音乐中，音阶和作曲与不同的元素有关。空处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词为music，在从句中作介词in的宾语，应用关系代词which。故填which。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这一理论的应用跨越了不同的领域，显示了它在中国人的生活和思想中的多功能性和持久的意义。该句谓语动词为spans，所以此处应用非谓语动词作状语，showcase与 The theory’s application是逻辑上的主谓关系，所以用现在分词作伴随状语。故填showcasing。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 作为校英文报记者，上周你参加了学校举办的以“我有我光芒”（Shine Your Light）为主题的心理健康月活动。请为校英文报写一篇报道，内容包括： 1．活动介绍； 2．收获与感想。 注意：1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Mental Health Month at Guangming Middle School ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Mental Health Month at Guangming Middle School In an effort to foster emotional resilience and psychological well-being, our school hosted the groundbreaking “Shine Your Light” Mental Health Month from September 24th to 25th, attracting overwhelming participation from both students and faculty.

She normally used it to try and push me into doing something I didn’t want to do. It was like waving a red flag in front of a bull. Irritating as it was, it took root. Many years ago, my husband was downsized out of his job, leaving us with a single income — mine. We were a two-income family with two-income bills and two children to support. He had been given a generous severance (解雇金), but that money would only last so long. Just when it looked like things couldn’t get any worse, they did. I lost my job too. While my husband was out pounding the pavement, knocking on doors, making calls and scanning the papers for another job, I stayed home and did my best to figure out how to make the most of every cent. It was often difficult to maintain a hopeful, positive attitude, but we did our best. Anxious about our situation, I tried to think of something that I could do to earn some money. Even a little would help. One day I had lunch with a former coworker who insisted that I would be great at teaching computer classes. I had used word processing software extensively at my former job and was definitely an expert, but could I sell that skill? Was it possible that people would actually pay me to teach them? The only teaching I had ever done was in Sunday School. I remembered my mother’s mantra — Can’t never could until he tried. 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。 Recalling my Sunday School teaching experience, I contacted the community. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, my computer class was in great demand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Recalling my Sunday School teaching experience, I contacted the community. Fortunately, I received an immediate and enthusiastic response. For days I prepared relentlessly, rehearsing lessons aloud to an empty living room, my voice growing steadier with each repetition. When the first class began, I saw my own nervousness reflected in the students’ faces. But as I guided them through opening their first document, their concentrated expressions slowly softened into smiles of triumph. In that moment, I felt my mother’s mantra transform from childhood irritation to profound truth. To my surprise my computer class was in great demand. Seeing the growing need for digital skills, I developed an online course mainly teaching elderly people how to use computers and the Internet. With more and more people registering for my course, the additional income helped stabilize our family’s finances and I gradually found myself immersed in the interest of education which became my lifelong career ultimately. What began as a desperate attempt to survive became a journey of self-discovery. I had tried despite my fears, and in doing so, realized I could not only endure but thrive. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。讲述了作者的祖母和母亲常念叨“不尝试就永远做不到”，作者虽烦但铭记于心。后作者与丈夫失业，为解困境，作者忆起这句箴言，决定尝试教电脑课赚钱。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“回想起我在主日学校的教学经历，我与社区取得了联系。”可知，第一段可以描写作者主动联系社区、筹备电脑课程的过程，最终体会到教学的真正意义，呼应母亲的教诲。 ②由第二段句首内容“令我惊讶的是，我的电脑课备受欢迎。”可知，第二段可以描写课程受欢迎后作者的进一步行动——开发线上课程，服务更多老年人；继而展现这一努力带来的双重收获：既缓解家庭经济压力，又让作者真正爱上教育事业；最后升华主题，表达在困境中勇于尝试所带来的自我成长与人生转变。 2.续写线索：回忆经历并联系社区——精心准备课程——首次授课并产生共鸣——课程广受欢迎——开发线上课程帮助老人——改善家庭经济状况——爱上教育并确立终身职业——实现自我突破与成长——领悟勇敢尝试的意义 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①收到回应：receive a response/get a response/obtain a response ②引导：guide/direct ③开发课程：develop a course/create a course/design a course 情绪类 ①热情的：enthusiastic/passionate ②紧张的：nervous/anxious 【点睛】【高分句型1】With more and more people registering for my course, the additional income helped stabilize our family’s finances and I gradually found myself immersed in the interest of education which became my lifelong career ultimately.

Here is what you can see and do in America’s steel city. FEDERAL GALLEY A hip food hall within walking distance of the Andy Warhol Museum, Federal Galley serves as a testing ground for startup restaurants, presenting cuisines from all corners of the globe beneath its corrugated tin roof. With a changing list of restaurants, there’s something for every appetite, from American breakfasts to short ribs, fancy salads and much more. MATTRESS FACTORY Step into a bewildering world of darkness, light and texture at this contemporary art museum (it calls itself a “laboratory”), housed in a former mattress storehouse. Founded in 1977, it offers four floors of interactive exhibits — both revolving exhibitions and permanent pieces by the likes of Greer Lankton, James Turrell, Yayoi Kusama. AUGUST WILSON AFRICAN AMERICAN CULTURAL CENTER Pittsburgh native August Wilson was a pioneer for Black playwrights and poets in the 1960s and ‘70s. His 10-play Century Cycle(recording the Black experience in Pittsburgh in the 20th century) is a key piece of US theatre; today visitors can see the works staged at this cultural centre, whose calendar of events, poetry readings and talks honor Wilson’s legacy. CARNEGIE MUSEUMS The Oakland neighbourhood boasts a complex of museums and galleries. The Carnegie Museum of Natural History puts visitors face to face with two towering dinosaurs and the Wertz Gallery shines with its displays of jewels and gems; the Carnegie Museum of Art, meanwhile, is home to works by the world’s finest impressionist painters, including van Gogh, Monet, Pissarro and Henri Le Sidaner. 1. What does Federal Galley have to offer? A. A bite of the world. B. Entrance to a museum. C. A place for food inspection. D. Education in starting restaurants. 2. Which man plays a role in Black literature? A. Andy Warhol. B. James Turrell. C. August Wilson. D. Henri Le Sidaner. 3. Who are likely to visit Mattress Factory and Carnegie Museums? A. Lab workers. B. History lovers. C. Gem collectors. D. Art appreciators. B The room on this day is in a Florida assisted living facility and is full of residents, staff, family, and even a local news photographer. Yet Magic wanders over and rests her head in the lap of one particular resident, who begins talking to her. “Isn’t she beautiful?” the resident says. The activities director begins to cry. It turns out that the woman hadn’t spoken a word since she arrived three years ago. That’s the Magic touch. Our 14-year-old therapy black horse has won the hearts of many. She’s been called in to cheer up survivors of tragedy and natural disaster. Often our little black pony comes home with stains on her white nose from being kissed by all the ladies. Magic also has a very special relationship with children in hospital care. One little boy who had both a heart transplant and leukemia said Magic made his face hurt from smiling so much. To work indoors, all the miniature horses have to go through basic training. Magic is no exception, but proves to be exceptional: riding elevators, taking stairs, and staying calm around loud noises. We often play the song “Do You Believe in Magic” before bringing her in. She knows exactly what that means. She raises her ears and does a little prance (腾跃) for everyone. At one facility, a woman was waiting in the lobby bright and early on the morning Magic was scheduled to visit. At another, one man’s family contacted the facility to alert them that he’d taken a turn for the worse: He’d just called and said there was a tiny horse in his room. They were relieved to learn it was not the hallucinatory (幻觉的) kind — the Magic kind. 4. What brings the activities director to tears? A. The change of a resident. B. The assistance from a facility. C. The discussion on a miniature horse. D. The interaction with a news photographer. 5. What is a characteristic of Magic’s job? A. Carrying out rescue. B. Attending to sick kids. C. Encouraging friendship. D. Offering comfort and joy. 6. What does Magic’s performance in Para.3 show? A. Magic is a natural leader. B. Magic is a household name. C. Magic is a figure in the lyrics. D. Magic is a seasoned professional. 7. Which of the following columns is the text probably selected from? A. Pet Pal Tales. B. Animal Behavior. C. Conservation Insights. D. Horse Training Guidance. C How can anyone feel bored in a world with social media, streaming movies, and the ability to download just about every book in the world? It may sound paradoxical, but according to a study published in Communications Psychology by Katy Y. Y. Tam and Michael Inlicht, digital media does make us more bored. Why am I bored all the time? According to researchers, here’s what’s happening. Given that we have access to entertainment whenever we like, the bar for what we consider entertaining or stimulating has increased. It’s like when someone is an addict and they keep needing more and more of the same substance to get the high they desire. Another reason flipping through TikTok leaves you feeling bored and listless is that digital media divides our attention, making it hard to focus on the activity at hand — we quickly switch between videos and activities, our phones pulse and beep with notifications (通知), and texts pop up on the screen. As we pointed out with the Dorito Theory a while back, sometimes experiences that aren’t fulfilling can still be maximally addictive. As we scroll (滚动浏览) and try to come across something that cures our boredom, it’s time to ask ourselves how we feel after the experience. Did logging in deliver the experience we thought we’d get? Or, did the crazy search for content keep us occupied until the boredom came back again? “If people want a more enjoyable experience when watching videos, they can try to stay focused on the content and minimize digital switching, like paying for a more immersive experience in a movie theater. More enjoyment comes from immersing oneself in online videos rather than swiping through them,” Tam suggests. However, this may prove more complicated than years ago, as our attention spans are much shorter. 8. What does the underlined word “paradoxical” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Ignorant. B. Unfamiliar. C. Dangerous. D. Contradictory. 9. What makes people bored when using TikTok? A. Lowered stimulation levels. B. Ineffectiveness in relaxation. C. Constant interruptions of focus. D. Reduction in a sense of meaning. 10. What does Tam suggest readers do? A. Purchase online videos. B. Engage in certain content. C. Improve attention spans. D. Seek pleasant experiences. 11 What can be a suitable title for the text? A. Why Access to Entertainment Is Harmful B. How the Dorito Theory Relates to Us in Life C. Why Digital Media Contributes to Our Boredom D. How Smartphone Addiction Affects Our Psychology D A baby’s early life has a lot of milestones: first giggle (咯咯笑), first tooth, first step. A brain scanning study adds to the list: first memory. Infants can form memories, and they use a memory structure in the brain called the hippocampus, a seahorse-shaped structure, to do it, researchers report in Science. Young babies can be difficult research subjects. But for the new study, awake babies were kept calm in a functional MRI scanner with a parent nearby and earphones to protect them from alarming sounds. In the scanner, these babies, who ranged from 4 months old to nearly 25 months old, saw images, one after another, of people, places or objects. All the while, scientists recorded blood flow in the babies’ brains. Occasionally, the babies were tested with a pair of images, one of which they had seen before. If the babies looked longer at the previously seen image, researchers reasoned, they likely remembered it. In the study, 13 babies were younger than a year, and 13 babies were older than a year. The older babies could remember about half of the images they had seen before. And this memory feat agreed with brain activity in a part of the hippocampus. The results add to other evidence from earlier research that babies, the human sort as well as rats and mice, can in fact form memories, and start to answer how. Still, the results don’t explain why we can’t recall some of the earliest moments of our lives, a phenomenon known as infantile amnesia. It’s possible that these memories aren’t effectively stored elsewhere in the brain. Or it could be that neural (神经的) traces persist but aren’t able to be called back up. 12.

A. The process of the research. B. The function of the scanner. C. The activities of the parents. D. The diversity of the subjects. 14. What makes scientists tell if babies remember an image? A. Whether the image is seen previously. B. Whether babies pay more attention to it. C. Whether the image is shown long enough. D. Whether babies reach over one year of age. 15. What can be inferred from the results? A This study refines relevant research to some extent. B. Gradual brain damage leads to inability to remember. C. The hippocampus determines mammals’ learning ability. D. Rats and mice are good at storing the earliest memories. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Building strength helps you stay healthy as well as fit.

She normally used it to try and push me into doing something I didn’t want to do. It was like waving a red flag in front of a bull. Irritating as it was, it took root. Many years ago my husband was downsized out of his job, leaving us with a single income — mine. We were a two-income family with two-income bills and two children to support. He had been given a generous severance (解雇金), but that money would only last so long. Just when it looked like things couldn’t get any worse, they did. I lost my job too. While my husband was out pounding the pavement, knocking on doors, making calls and scanning the papers for another job, I stayed home and did my best to figure out how to make the most of every cent. It was often difficult to maintain a hopeful, positive attitude, but we did our best. Anxious about our situation, I tried to think of something that I could do to earn some money. Even a little would help. One day I had lunch with a former coworker who insisted that I would be great at teaching computer classes. I had used word processing software extensively at my former job and was definitely an expert, but could I sell that skill? Was it possible that people would actually pay me to teach them? The only teaching I had ever done was in Sunday School. I remembered my mother’s mantra — Can’t never could until he tried. 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。 Recalling my Sunday School teaching experience, I contacted the community. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ To my surprise, my computer class was in great demand. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
