Sports are not a modern invention. People around the world have enjoyed exciting and meaningful sports since ancient times. Here are some examples of ancient sports from different cultures.
Egyptian Pharaohs’ Running Race
In ancient Egypt, kings demonstrated their physical strength by running during the Sed Festival. This special event took place after a king had ruled for 30 years. For example, Pharaoh Djoser ran around the temple for a long time to prove he was still healthy and strong.
Minoan Bull-Leaping
The Minoan people created a very dangerous sport called bull-leaping. In this event, athletes would run directly at a charging bull, grab its horns (角), and leap over its back. Wall paintings from the Palace of Knossos show these exciting scenes.
Mesopotamian Wrestling
Ancient Mesopotamians practiced wrestling and boxing. Stone carvings show strong fighters wearing skirts during matches. These matches were intense, with fighters wrestling like wild animals.
Ancient Chinese Archery (射箭)
In the Zhou Dynasty’s royal education, archery was a required skill for men. Competitions, called “sheyi”, were held with strict rules and ceremonies. To win, a person needed both physical skill and qualities such as grace, self-control and respect. These contests often took place in temples and served to promote moral values and social order.
Although ancient sports varied widely in form and intent, they universally highlighted the value of skill. Beyond mere competition, these activities were deeply integrated into their societies, reflecting cultural beliefs and shaping a sense of community.

With its rolling hills, dramatic waterfalls, and rich woodlands, the Durham Dales in England provides a natural habitat for birds — and it’s also home to zoologist and artist Sara Cox. Surrounded by nature since childhood, she has always been passionate about birds. Today, she creates detailed bird sculptures made from fine metal wire, combining scientific knowledge with artistic creativity to raise awareness about the challenges facing bird populations and to inspire people to care for them.
As a child, Sara spent much of her time outdoors with her brothers — exploring the garden or walking in the countryside. These early experiences helped her develop a deep appreciation for the natural world. At the same time, creativity was a strong presence in her home: her father, an engineer, enjoyed welding (焊接) and building, while her mother made pottery in her spare time. Their hands-on skills and artistic sensibility gave Sara both technical and creative foundations. Later, when she moved to Mickleton 20 years ago, the surrounding wildlife became a powerful source of inspiration. Observing birds up close in their natural habitat helped her find her own artistic voice and connect her love of nature with sculpture.
Sara’s wire bird sculptures are the result of careful observation and detailed study. She will sit outside for hours, sketching and observing their movements — right down to how their muscles work and how they shift their weight. She also visits museums to study bird skeletons (骨架) so she can understand the structure beneath the feathers. “To sculpt a bird accurately, I need to know what’s underneath,” she explains.
Her sculptures have been shown in national exhibitions, including one held by the Royal Society of British Artists in London. They can also be seen along nature trails (小径), such as at the Durham Wildlife Trust’s Low Barns reserve. Whether displayed in galleries or out in the wild, her work has been praised by museums, galleries, and wildlife trusts alike for its scientific accuracy, emotional impact, and ability to encourage greater appreciation for bird species.
4. Why did Sara Cox create bird sculptures?
A. To promote her hometown. B. To display her artistic talent.
C. To inspire conservation effort. D. To support scientific research.
5. Which experience most helped Sara Cox develop her artistic voice?
A. Trying different art techniques. B. Having close contact with birds.
C. Growing up in a creative family. D. Exploring nature with her brothers.
6. Which words can best describe Sara?
A. Patient and precise. B. Curious and brave.
C. Confident and proud. D. Creative and humorous.
7. Why is the Royal Society of British Artists mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To illustrate the UK’s top art institutions. B. To contrast national and local art scenes.
C. To explain the further study Sara pursued. D. To highlight the recognition Sara received.
C
It’s a familiar scene: You assure your parents you’ll leave for school in “just five minutes” or confidently plan to memorize 50 words in an hour. Yet reality hits. You’re ten minutes late, breathless at the classroom’s front door. And of the fifty words? You managed barely twenty. So why do we keep misjudging time so badly?
You’re not alone, and you’re not simply bad at planning. Most of us suffer from what is called the planning fallacy(谬误), a concept introduced by psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky. It describes how we consistently underestimate the time to complete a task, often accompanied by a failure to account for effort and risk, even if it contradicts our experiences.
This happens because people tend to imagine the ideal situation and omit real-world challenges. Imagine trying to finish a math worksheet before evening study session. You picture yourself focused and finishing it in thirty minutes. But reality is different. You get stuck on a tough problem, look for your textbook, and check your phone “just once”, and suddenly an hour has passed. Before you know it, you’re rushing to complete the work, feeling stressed, and worried about how others will perceive your delay.
So, what can you do? First, instead of thinking about the task, use data. Ask: how long did similar tasks take last time — not just the writing, but the thinking, searching, revising? Second, break big goals into small, more predictable steps and estimate the duration of each one. It’s easier to estimate “answer the first three multiple-choice questions” than “finish biology homework”. Third, don’t just add a fixed number to your estimate; adjust by percentages because larger tasks scale differently. A 10-minute task might need 5 extra minutes while a 2-hour task might need 30.
The next time you catch yourself thinking “this will just take a few minutes”, pause for a moment and remind yourself of the planning fallacy. The goal is, however, not to become pessimistic about your capabilities, but to become realistic about the complexities of the real world. Your future self will thank you.
8. What phenomenon does the planning fallacy mainly describe?
A. Anxiety over future plans. B. Frequent mistakes in daily life.
C. Misjudgment about task duration. D. Failure to reflect on past experiences.
9. What does the underlined word “omit” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Meet. B. Accept. C. Handle. D. Ignore.
10. Which of the following is a solution to the planning fallacy?
A. Dividing a project into smaller parts. B. Doing more research before acting.
C. Adding at least five more minutes to a task. D. Following the same time estimate as before.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. How Perfectionism Fools Us. B. Closing the Planning Gap.
C. Why Realism Is So Important. D. Breaking the Deadline Cycle.
D
While players train hard for the FIFA World Cup, experts also work behind the scenes to design the perfect match ball. The 2026 World Cup ball is named Trionda, meaning “three waves” in Spanish, which celebrates the three host nations — the U. S., Mexico and Canada. What really makes the Trionda unique is its design. It consists of only four panels, the smallest number in World Cup history. This is a significant change from the 20-paneled ball used in 2022.
The design of a soccer ball is based on 3D shapes called platonic solids (柏拉图立体). The classic Telstar ball, used in 1970, comes from the icosahedron with 20 triangle (三角形) faces. By cutting off its corners, designers turned it into a rounder ball.
The 2026 Trionda ball is based on a tetrahedron, which seems the least ball-like. The trick is in the panels: their edges are curves (曲线) that fit together to form a round shape. This design idea also appeared in the Brazuca ball from 2014, which was based on a cube.
Basing the Trionda on a tetrahedron might be a risky choice, since the last match ball based on that shape was widely criticized. That was the Jabulani from 2010, which combined cutting off a tetrahedron’s corners to make eight faces and turning their edges into curves. Despite its roundest shape, players complained it was unpredictable in the air.
So why didn’t the Jabulani work as intended? When a ball flies through the air it faces a force called drag, which slows it down. Normally, drag becomes smaller after the ball reaches a certain speed. But if the ball is too smooth, this “critical speed” becomes very high, and the ball may fly in strange ways. That is why golf balls have tiny holes — to reduce drag and make their movement more stable.
To minimize drag, experts designed Trionda with small holes and special seams (线缝). This makes its surface less smooth and the ball easier for players to control during a match.
12. Why is the Trionda ball special?
A. It has the smallest size. B. It uses the fewest panels.
C. It is designed by three hosts. D. It is named after a Spanish man.
13. What can we learn about the design of the Trionda ball?
A. It’s adapted from the classic Telstar ball. B. It shares the same shape with the Brazuca.
C. It’s made round by a curved-edged tetrahedron. D. It involves cutting the corners of an icosahedron.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The challenge of the Trionda’s design. B. The training strategy for soccer players.
C. The physical risk of playing ball games. D. The science behind the Jabulani’s problem.
15. How did experts improve the Trionda ball’s performance?
A. By roughening its surface. B. By controlling its speed.
C. By changing its materials. D. By minimizing its weight.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In writing, a stereotype (刻板印象) is an oversimplified and widely accepted idea about a type of person, group, or situation. Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful. _____16_____ Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes:
Character Development: Go Beyond First Impressions
_____17_____ A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems.
Plot Structure: Avoid Predictable Storylines
We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending. _____18_____ Try going against expectations: maybe the chosen one fails, or the happy ending comes with unexpected costs. Readers appreciate fresh takes on familiar situations.
Descriptive Writing: Show, Don’t Tell Emotions
Simple labels like “she was nervous” can describe a feeling but often make a character seem dull and clichéd (陈词滥调的). Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable. _____19_____
Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic. _____20_____ The most memorable stories are those that find new ways to express universal truths.
A. Aim to surprise, but stay grounded.
B. Such stories follow overly familiar paths.
C. However, they often take away a story’s depth.
D. Therefore, they serve as a powerful tool in writing.
E. Real people are complex, so your creations should be too.
F. By doing so, you let readers feel rather than just read it.
G. After all, most readers prefer plots that are easy to follow.

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。
Little Notes
Once again, I headed out to look for a job. Although I wasn’t very confident about the interview, I still held my head high, trying to stay hopeful under the morning sun. Before leaving, I made sure to stick a note on the fridge that read, “Son, finish your breakfast and have a good day.” Then I walked out of the door.
This quiet tradition came from my father. I still remember how, before every trip, he would leave a note on my desk: “I’ll come back with gifts for you.” When I stayed up late studying, I would open my pencil box and find another note inside: “Go to bed and have a good dream.” During summer camp, I would find a little note in my pocket that said, “Take care of yourself.” Those small pieces of paper were my first understanding of love — a gentle way of reminding me that someone always cared.
Years later, when my own son Jack was old enough to read, I continued the tradition. I left little notes throughout his life: “You are smarter than you think” in his math book, “Son, my little sun” on his bedroom door, and “Good luck at soccer” inside his shoe. He never said anything about them, but he became a happy, brave, and kind boy. That was enough for me.
Then came the hardest winter of my life. My company cut our pay, and people began whispering about who might lose their jobs. I worked every day with a heavy heart, always anxious, but in the end, I was still told to leave. It was a huge shock — but things got even harder. My husband lost his job too and had to move to another city to find work. I didn’t have time to feel sad. I needed to find a new job quickly to support our family.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
That evening, after another long, unsuccessful day, I came home exhausted.

With its rolling hills, dramatic waterfalls, and rich woodlands, the Durham Dales in England provides a natural habitat for birds — and it’s also home to zoologist and artist Sara Cox. Surrounded by nature since childhood, she has always been passionate about birds. Today, she creates detailed bird sculptures made from fine metal wire, combining scientific knowledge with artistic creativity to raise awareness about the challenges facing bird populations and to inspire people to care for them.
As a child, Sara spent much of her time outdoors with her brothers — exploring the garden or walking in the countryside. These early experiences helped her develop a deep appreciation for the natural world. At the same time, creativity was a strong presence in her home: her father, an engineer, enjoyed welding (焊接) and building, while her mother made pottery in her spare time. Their hands-on skills and artistic sensibility gave Sara both technical and creative foundations. Later, when she moved to Mickleton 20 years ago, the surrounding wildlife became a powerful source of inspiration. Observing birds up close in their natural habitat helped her find her own artistic voice and connect her love of nature with sculpture.
Sara’s wire bird sculptures are the result of careful observation and detailed study. She will sit outside for hours, sketching and observing their movements — right down to how their muscles work and how they shift their weight. She also visits museums to study bird skeletons (骨架) so she can understand the structure beneath the feathers. “To sculpt a bird accurately, I need to know what’s underneath,” she explains.
Her sculptures have been shown in national exhibitions, including one held by the Royal Society of British Artists in London. They can also be seen along nature trails (小径), such as at the Durham Wildlife Trust’s Low Barns reserve. Whether displayed in galleries or out in the wild, her work has been praised by museums, galleries, and wildlife trusts alike for its scientific accuracy, emotional impact, and ability to encourage greater appreciation for bird species.
4 Why did Sara Cox create bird sculptures?
A. To promote her hometown. B. To display her artistic talent.
C. To inspire conservation effort. D. To support scientific research.
5. Which experience most helped Sara Cox develop her artistic voice?
A. Trying different art techniques. B. Having close contact with birds.
C. Growing up in a creative family. D. Exploring nature with her brothers.
6. Which words can best describe Sara?
A. Patient and precise. B. Curious and brave.
C. Confident and proud. D. Creative and humorous.
7. Why is the Royal Society of British Artists mentioned in the last paragraph?
A. To illustrate the UK’s top art institutions. B. To contrast national and local art scenes.
C. To explain the further study Sara pursued. D. To highlight the recognition Sara received.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. D

It’s a familiar scene: You assure your parents you’ll leave for school in “just five minutes”, or confidently plan to memorize 50 words in an hour. Yet reality hits. You’re ten minutes late, breathless at the classroom’s front door. And of the fifty words? You managed barely twenty. So why do we keep misjudging time so badly?
You’re not alone, and you’re not simply bad at planning. Most of us suffer from what is called the planning fallacy(谬误), a concept introduced by psychologists Daniel Kahneman and Amos Tversky. It describes how we consistently underestimate the time to complete a task, often accompanied by a failure to account for effort and risk, even if it contradicts our experiences.
This happens because people tend to imagine the ideal situation and omit real-world challenges. Imagine trying to finish a math worksheet before evening study session. You picture yourself focused and finishing it in thirty minutes. But reality is different. You get stuck on a tough problem, look for your textbook, and check your phone “just once”, and suddenly an hour has passed. Before you know it, you’re rushing to complete the work, feeling stressed, and worried about how others will perceive your delay.
So, what can you do? First, instead of thinking about the task, use data. Ask: how long did similar tasks take last time — not just the writing, but the thinking, searching, revising? Second, break big goals into small, more predictable steps and estimate the duration of each one. It’s easier to estimate “answer the first three multiple-choice questions” than “finish biology homework”. Third, don’t just add a fixed number to your estimate; adjust by percentages because larger tasks scale differently. A 10-minute task might need 5 extra minutes while a 2-hour task might need 30.
The next time you catch yourself thinking “this will just take a few minutes”, pause for a moment and remind yourself of the planning fallacy. The goal is, however, not to become pessimistic about your capabilities, but to become realistic about the complexities of the real world. Your future self will thank you.
8. What phenomenon does the planning fallacy mainly describe?
A. Anxiety over future plans. B. Frequent mistakes in daily life.
C. Misjudgment about task duration. D. Failure to reflect on past experiences.
9. What does the underlined word “omit” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Meet. B. Accept. C. Handle. D. Ignore.
10. Which of the following is a solution to the planning fallacy?
A. Dividing a project into smaller parts. B. Doing more research before acting.
C. Adding at least five more minutes to a task. D. Following the same time estimate as before.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A. How Perfectionism Fools Us. B. Closing the Planning Gap.
C. Why Realism Is So Important. D. Breaking the Deadline Cycle.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了“计划谬误”——人们往往会低估自己完成任务所需的时间。通过描述典型现象、心理原因以及三条实用建议,作者帮助读者改善时间管理,强调“现实规划”胜过“乐观假设”。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Most of us suffer from what is called the planning fallacy(谬误)... It describes how we consistently underestimate the time to complete a task, often accompanied by a failure to account for effort and risk, even if it contradicts our experiences.(我们大多数人都受到所谓“规划谬误”的影响……它指的是我们总是低估完成一项任务所需的时间,往往还会忽略所需的努力和潜在风险,即便这与我们的过往经验相悖。)”可知,规划谬误主要描述的是人们对任务所需时长的误判(低估)。故选C项。
【9题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第三段中的“This happens because people tend to imagine the ideal situation and omit real-world challenges. Imagine trying to finish a math worksheet... You picture yourself focused... But reality is different. You get stuck on a tough problem, look for your textbook, and check your phone...(这种情况发生是因为人们倾向于想象理想状态,而omit现实中的挑战。想象一下你试图完成数学练习卷……你设想自己专注做题……但现实却不同:你被难题困住、找课本、忍不住看手机……)”可知,“理想状态”与“现实挑战”是对比关系,人们只想到理想情况,却没考虑到现实中的问题,因此“omit”意为“忽略、忽视”。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“So, what can you do? First... Second, break big goals into small, more predictable steps and estimate the duration of each one. It’s easier to estimate ‘answer the first three multiple-choice questions’ than ‘finish biology homework’.(那么,我们能做些什么呢?首先……其次,将大目标分解成更小、更易预估时长的步骤,并估算每个步骤的时间。估算‘完成前三道选择题’的时间,比估算‘完成生物作业’要容易得多。)”可知,“将项目拆分成更小部分”是解决规划谬误的方法之一。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章探讨了“计划谬误”——人们往往会低估自己完成任务所需的时间。通过描述典型现象、心理原因以及三条实用建议,作者帮助读者改善时间管理,强调“现实规划”胜过“乐观假设”。核心是“帮助人们缩小规划与现实的差距”。所以B选项“弥合规划缺口”为最佳标题。故选B项。
D
While players train hard for the FIFA World Cup, experts also work behind the scenes to design the perfect match ball. The 2026 World Cup ball is named Trionda, meaning “three waves” in Spanish, which celebrates the three host nations — the U. S., Mexico and Canada. What really makes the Trionda unique is its design. It consists of only four panels, the smallest number in World Cup history. This is a significant change from the 20-paneled ball used in 2022.
The design of a soccer ball is based on 3D shapes called platonic solids (柏拉图立体). The classic Telstar ball, used in 1970, comes from the icosahedron with 20 triangle (三角形) faces. By cutting off its corners, designers turned it into a rounder ball.
The 2026 Trionda ball is based on a tetrahedron, which seems the least ball-like. The trick is in the panels: their edges are curves (曲线) that fit together to form a round shape. This design idea also appeared in the Brazuca ball from 2014, which was based on a cube.
Basing the Trionda on a tetrahedron might be a risky choice, since the last match ball based on that shape was widely criticized. That was the Jabulani from 2010, which combined cutting off a tetrahedron’s corners to make eight faces and turning their edges into curves. Despite its roundest shape, players complained it was unpredictable in the air.
So why didn’t the Jabulani work as intended? When a ball flies through the air, it faces a force called drag, which slows it down. Normally, drag becomes smaller after the ball reaches a certain speed. But if the ball is too smooth, this “critical speed” becomes very high, and the ball may fly in strange ways. That is why golf balls have tiny holes — to reduce drag and make their movement more stable.
To minimize drag, experts designed Trionda with small holes and special seams (线缝). This makes its surface less smooth and the ball easier for players to control during a match.
12. Why is the Trionda ball special?
A. It has the smallest size. B. It uses the fewest panels.
C. It is designed by three hosts. D. It is named after a Spanish man.
13. What can we learn about the design of the Trionda ball?
A. It’s adapted from the classic Telstar ball. B. It shares the same shape with the Brazuca.
C. It’s made round by a curved-edged tetrahedron. D. It involves cutting the corners of an icosahedron.
14. What is paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The challenge of the Trionda’s design. B. The training strategy for soccer players.
C. The physical risk of playing ball games. D. The science behind the Jabulani’s problem.
15. How did experts improve the Trionda ball’s performance?
A. By roughening its surface. B. By controlling its speed.
C. By changing its materials. D. By minimizing its weight.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了2026年世界杯用球Trionda的设计创新——从以四面体为基础构型、由最少面板构成、到运用独特的表面设计减小空气阻力。文中还提到了历史用球Jabulani的问题,以及Trionda如何通过科技手段在此基础上提升其稳定性与可控性。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“What really makes the Trionda unique is its design. It consists of only four panels, the smallest number in World Cup history. (真正让Trionda球与众不同的是它的设计。它只由四块球皮组成,这是世界杯历史上球皮数量最少的)”可知,Trionda球的特别之处在于它仅由4块面板组成,是世界杯历史上面板数量最少的。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The 2026 Trionda ball is based on a tetrahedron, which seems the least ball-like. The trick is in the panels: their edges are curves that fit together to form a round shape.(2026年的Trionda球以四面体为设计基础,而四面体看起来最不像球体。关键在于球皮:它们的边缘是曲线,拼接在一起就能形成圆形)”可知,面板边缘的曲线设计能使Trionda呈圆形。故选C项。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“So why didn’t the Jabulani work as intended? When a ball flies through the air, it faces a force called drag... That is why golf balls have tiny holes — to reduce drag and make their movement more stable. (那么为什么Jabulani球没有达到预期效果呢?当球在空中飞行时,会受到一种叫做阻力的力……这就是为什么高尔夫球上有小孔 —— 为了减少阻力,让球的运动更稳定)”可知,第五段主要围绕Jabulani未能达到预期效果背后的科学原理展开。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“To minimize drag, experts designed Trionda with small holes and special seams. This makes its surface less smooth and the ball easier for players to control during a match. (为了将阻力降到最低,专家们为Trionda球设计了小孔和特殊的线缝。这使得球的表面不那么光滑,球员在比赛中更容易控制球)”可知,专家们通过使球体表面拥有恰当的粗糙度来改善其性能。故选A项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
In writing, a stereotype (刻板印象) is an oversimplified and widely accepted idea about a type of person, group, or situation. Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful. _____16_____ Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes:
Character Development: Go Beyond First Impressions
_____17_____ A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems.
Plot Structure: Avoid Predictable Storylines
We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending. _____18_____ Try going against expectations: maybe the chosen one fails, or the happy ending comes with unexpected costs. Readers appreciate fresh takes on familiar situations.
Descriptive Writing: Show, Don’t Tell Emotions
Simple labels like “she was nervous” can describe a feeling but often make a character seem dull and clichéd (陈词滥调的). Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable. _____19_____
Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic. _____20_____ The most memorable stories are those that find new ways to express universal truths.
A. Aim to surprise, but stay grounded.
B. Such stories follow overly familiar paths.
C. However, they often take away a story’s depth.
D. Therefore, they serve as a powerful tool in writing.
E. Real people are complex, so your creations should be too.
F. By doing so, you let readers feel rather than just read it.
G. After all, most readers prefer plots that are easy to follow.
【答案】16. C 17. E 18. B 19. F 20. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨了写作中如何避免刻板印象,提出了三个关键改进方向,并强调创新需以逻辑为基础,在惊喜与真实间取得平衡。
【16题详解】
前文“In writing, a stereotype (刻板印象) is an oversimplified and widely accepted idea about a type of person, group, or situation. Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful. (在写作中,刻板印象是一种对某一类型的人、群体或情况的过度简化和被广泛接受的想法。刻板印象是看似有用的简单答案)”给出刻板印象的定义,指出这是看似有用的简单答案,后文“Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes (以下是三个你可以着力突破刻板印象的关键领域)”引出超越刻板印象的方法,空处需包含转折逻辑,因此C项“However, they often take away a story’s depth. (然而,它们往往会削弱故事的深度)”符合语境,指出刻板印象的实际弊端,和前文构成转折,引出后文的改进建议,其中的they指代前文的Stereotypes。故选C。
【17题详解】
小标题“Character Development: Go Beyond First Impressions (角色发展:超越第一印象)”表明本段主题是“角色发展”,后文“A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems. (刻板印象会把一个角色变成一个简单的类型,比如“害羞的书虫”或“愤怒的运动员”。为了让你的角色更真实、更令人难忘,你可以添加一些出人意料的转折——一个喜欢冒险运动的书虫,或者一个写诗的运动员)”强调突破单一形象,因此E项“Real people are complex, so your creations should be too. (真实的人是复杂的,因此你的角色创作也应如此)”符合语境,提出角色复杂性的必要性,呼应小标题,引出后文的具体做法。故选E。
【18题详解】
前文“We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending. (我们一遍又一遍地看到同样的情节:命中注定的那个人和完美的幸福结局)”举例“命中注定的人”和“完美结局”的老套情节,后文“Try going against expectations: maybe the chosen one fails, or the happy ending comes with unexpected costs. (试着违背预期:也许被选中的人失败了,或者幸福的结局伴随着意想不到的代价)”建议尝试反套路,空处应起到过渡作用,包含对老套情节的评价,因此B项“Such stories follow overly familiar paths. (这类故事遵循过于熟悉的套路)”符合语境,概括这些情节的弊病,承前启后。故选B。
【19题详解】
前文“Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable. (相反,通过细节将情感带入生活,比如“她手指扭曲,她的呼吸短促而不均匀”。这种技巧让情感变得生动,能引起共鸣)”具体描述“展示情感”的写作技巧,空处应描述技巧的效果,因此F项“By doing so, you let readers feel rather than just read it. (通过这种方式,你让读者感受到而非仅仅读到情感)”符合语境,总结深入感受的效果,承接前文。故选F。
【20题详解】
前文“Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic. (最后但同样重要的是,避免刻板印象并不意味着要写一些不切实际的东西。如果违背了基本逻辑,即使是最具想象力的转折也会失去力量)”强调避免刻板印象不等同于脱离逻辑,空处应给出平衡两者的建议,因此A项“Aim to surprise, but stay grounded. (力求惊喜,但保持合理)”符合语境,建议处理好惊喜和合理,承接前文。故选A。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear Johnson,
I’m excited to hear about your upcoming elective course. I highly recommend the theme of “Cultural Misunderstandings in Daily Life”, which could involve students creating humorous or insightful short films about cross-cultural communication conflicts.
The reason I propose this topic is that it not only enhances language skills but also deepens cultural awareness, which is essential for effective communication. With many international students in our school, this theme would encourage collaboration between local and foreign classmates, making the learning process more interactive. Additionally, as these scenarios often involve exaggerated gestures and expressions, they can help students improve both verbal and nonverbal communication skills in English.
Looking forward to your feedback!
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
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。
Little Notes
Once again, I headed out to look for a job. Although I wasn’t very confident about the interview, I still held my head high, trying to stay hopeful under the morning sun. Before leaving, I made sure to stick a note on the fridge that read, “Son, finish your breakfast and have a good day.” Then I walked out of the door.
This quiet tradition came from my father. I still remember how, before every trip, he would leave a note on my desk: “I’ll come back with gifts for you.” When I stayed up late studying, I would open my pencil box and find another note inside: “Go to bed and have a good dream.” During summer camp, I would find a little note in my pocket that said, “Take care of yourself.” Those small pieces of paper were my first understanding of love — a gentle way of reminding me that someone always cared.
Years later, when my own son Jack was old enough to read, I continued the tradition. I left little notes throughout his life: “You are smarter than you think” in his math book, “Son, my little sun” on his bedroom door, and “Good luck at soccer” inside his shoe. He never said anything about them, but he became a happy, brave, and kind boy. That was enough for me.
Then came the hardest winter of my life. My company cut our pay, and people began whispering about who might lose their jobs. I worked every day with a heavy heart, always anxious, but in the end, I was still told to leave. It was a huge shock — but things got even harder. My husband lost his job too and had to move to another city to find work. I didn’t have time to feel sad. I needed to find a new job quickly to support our family.

That evening, after another long, unsuccessful day, I came home exhausted.

The apple was refreshing and sweet, and so was the note.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 That evening, after another long, unsuccessful day, I came home exhausted. Jack was already asleep. I sank onto the couch in the quiet living room and saw a small plate of neatly sliced apples waiting for me on the table. I picked a piece up, and as I did, my fingers brushed against something underneath. Curious, I lifted the plate and found a small note. In Jack’s neat handwriting, it read, “Mom, everything will be OK. I love you.” My eyes welled up with tears as I held the note gently in my hand.
The apple was refreshing and sweet, and so was the note. They were simple gifts, but they filled me with warmth and strength. In that quiet moment, all the stress and sadness of the day melted away. I smiled through my tears, feeling the power of love that had been passed down through three generations. The notes I had once left for Jack had come full circle. He was now the one lifting me up, just like my father once did. I realized that love, when shared, grows stronger, one small note at a time.
