These small, sealed packages containing random collectible figures have created a global craze, particularly among teenagers and young adults. The Blind Box Phenomenon Standard blind boxes are priced at ¥59 — 69 ($8 —10) in China, while international markets see higher prices-up to $15 in the US and £12 in the UK. The excitement comes from not knowing which of the 12 possible figures you’ll get, with rare “hidden” versions appearing only once in every 144 boxes. This system has proven incredibly successful, with Pop Mart’s 2024 revenue reaching ¥13 billion ($1.8 billion). Global Expansion Challenges As Pop Mart expanded to over 30 countries, problems emerged. In London, a limited-edition Labubu release caused such crowding that police were called. Meanwhile, fake versions of popular figures flooded markets in Southeast Asia, selling for half the price but with poor quality Membership Benefits To maintain customer loyalty, Pop Mart offers: * 1 membership point per ¥1 spent * Early access to new releases for Gold members (¥5,000+ annual spending) * Increased chances (from 1/ 144 to 1/72) of finding hidden figures when buying full sets 1. What makes blind boxes particularly attractive for buyers? A. Their low cost. B. Their large size. C. Their mysterious content. D. Their educational value. 2. Which benefit do Gold members receive when purchasing full sets of blind boxes? A. Free shipping on all orders B Double membership points per purchase C. Guaranteed hidden figure in every full set D. Increased chance of finding hidden figures (from 1/ 144 to 1/72) 3. Based on the article, which of the best explains why this blind box model is so successful? A. The high price of blind boxes ensures premium quality. B. Pop Mart only sells limited-edition figures in certain countries. C. The random nature and rarity of hidden figures create repeated purchases. D. The company avoids international expansion to prevent counterfeit products. 【答案】1. C 2. D 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了泡泡玛特（Pop Mart）凭借创新的盲盒概念革新玩具收藏领域，包括盲盒现象、全球扩张面临的挑战以及会员福利等内容。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The Blind Box Phenomenon”中的“The excitement comes from not knowing which of the 12 possible figures you’ll get, with rare “hidden” versions appearing only once in every 144 boxes. (令人兴奋的是，你不知道你会得到12个可能的数字中的哪一个，每144个盒子中只出现一个罕见的“隐藏”版本。)”可知是“隐藏”版本，也就是神秘的内容让盲盒对买家特别有吸引力，故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Membership Benefits”中的“Increased chances（from 1/144 to 1/72）of finding hidden figures when buying full sets (购买整套时，找到隐藏款的概率从 1/144 提升至 1/72)”可知黄金会员购买全套盲盒增加发现隐藏人物的几率（从1/ 144增加到1/72），故选D。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“The Blind Box Phenomenon”中的“The excitement comes from not knowing which of the 12 possible figures you’ll get, with rare “hidden” versions appearing only once in every 144 boxes. This system has proven incredibly successful, with Pop Mart’s 2024 revenue reaching ¥13 billion（$1.8 billion）. (令人兴奋的是，你不知道你会得到12个可能的数字中的哪一个，每144个盒子中只出现一个罕见的“隐藏”版本。事实证明，这一系统取得了令人难以置信的成功，Pop Mart在2024年的收入达到了130亿日元（18亿美元）。)”说明这种随机性和稀有性促使消费者反复购买，使得盲盒模式非常成功。故选C。 B “I can’t live without my mobile phone!” is what I often hear people say as they talk about how mobiles have become an essential part of their lives. The all so common sight of heads bent, eyes staring at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across major cities around the world. Whenever there is a moment to spare while on the train, taxi or waiting in a queue, people busy themselves with their mobile phones. Some people believe our unhealthy obsession (着迷) with mobile phones is destroying how we appreciate the little things in life or miss the moments that matter. The truth is that technology overall should be seen as just a tool to improve our lives. Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives, but I truly believe it is for the better. It’s changed the way we communicate, whether for work or play. We are now less constrained (限制) by time and geographical location. With my mobile phone, I can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam, or reply to urgent e-mails while on the go. I can send a text message or share photos and videos with friends who aren’t living in the same country. My phone calendar keeps my life organized, and even Facebook, Twitter, and instant messaging are now accessible from mobile phones! The mobile revolution isn’t just changing the lives of urbanities (都市人) like myself. I know of a young Bangladeshi woman named Shompa Akhter who is crazy about fashion and design. She dreamt about starting her own business and she did just that, opening a shop in Kushtia featuring her own creations. Dealing with supplies in different towns was a problem for Shompa — purchase orders had to either be hand delivered or mailed out to supplies. Shompa also found it tough publicizing her business to potential customers outside her town. But once she learnt to operate the mobile phone, she was addicted. The 25-year-old businesswoman now stays in touch easily with her suppliers. Mobile e-mail is a blessing in her life. Who would have thought that mobility could bring about such enormous change? It shouldn’t really be a surprise though. 4. In the first two paragraphs, the author wants to show ________. A. mobile phones make people communicate less B. mobile phones make people’s life more enjoyable C. people’s health is greatly affected by mobile phones D. people become addicted to mobile phones in daily life 5. What’s the author’s attitude towards mobile phones? ________. A. Doubtful B. Supportive C. Critical D. Uninterested 6. Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________. A. New functions of mobile phones B. New changes in Information Age C. The advantages of mobile phones D. The author’s personal experiences 7. How is the text mainly developed? A. By inferring. B. By analysing causes. C. By giving examples. D. By comparing different ideas. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了手机对人们生活的影响，作者认为手机虽然让人们变得上瘾，但总体上对生活有积极影响，并通过个人经历和他人故事进行说明。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段““I can’t live without my mobile phone!” is what I often hear people say as they talk about how mobiles have become an essential part of their lives.(“没有手机我活不下去！”这是人们在谈论手机已成为他们生活中不可或缺的一部分时，我常听到他们说的话。)”以及第二段“The all so common sight of heads bent, eyes staring at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across major cities around the world.(在世界各地的大城市里，低头弯腰、眼睛盯着手机屏幕、手指忙个不停的场景屡见不鲜。)”可知，在前两段中，作者想要展示的是人们在日常生活中对手机上瘾。故选D。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives, but I truly believe it is for the better.(手机无疑对我们的生活产生了巨大影响，但我真正相信这是为了变得更好)”以及第五段“It’s changed the way we communicate, whether for work or play. We are now less constrained (限制) by time and geographical location. (它改变了我们交流的方式，无论是工作还是娱乐。我们现在不受时间和地理位置的限制。)”可知，作者对手机的态度是支持的。故选B。 【6题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“ It’s changed the way we communicate, whether for work or play. We are now less constrained (限制) by time and geographical location. With my mobile phone, I can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam, or reply to urgent e-mails while on the go. I can send a text message or share photos and videos with friends who aren’t living in the same country. My phone calendar keeps my life organized, and even Facebook, Twitter, and instant messaging are now accessible from mobile phones!(它改变了我们交流的方式，无论是工作还是娱乐。我们现在受到时间和地理位置的限制更少了。有了我的手机，我可以在堵车时拨打电话参加电话会议，也可以在赶路时回复紧急电子邮件。我可以给不在同一个国家的朋友发短信或分享照片和视频。我的手机日历让我的生活井井有条，甚至Facebook、Twitter和即时通讯现在都可以从手机上访问！)”可知，第五段主要讲的是手机的优势。故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Some people believe our unhealthy obsession (着迷) with mobile phones is destroying how we appreciate the little things in life or miss the moments that matter. The truth is that technology overall should be seen as just a tool to improve our lives.(有些人认为，我们对手机的不健康痴迷正在破坏我们欣赏生活中小事的能力，或者让我们错过重要的时刻。事实上，从整体上看，技术应该被视为一种改善我们生活的工具)”以及第四段“Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives, but I truly believe it is for the better.(手机无疑对我们的生活产生了巨大影响，但我真正相信这是为了变得更好)”可知，作者先提出一些人的观点，然后给出自己的观点，这是通过比较不同的观点来展开文章的。故选D。 C Dr. Jane Goodall was only 26 when she traveled to Tanzania to learn about wild chimpanzees in 1960. The world knew very little about the species at the time. Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research. Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions. She named each animal and formed close bonds with them, learning how very similar they were to us. “Their behavior, with their gestures, kissing, embracing, holding hands,” she said of what she learned about chimpanzees in her research. “In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.” Goodall said even after all this time, there is still so much to learn from them. “It’s like if you’re watching a group of people. New ideas crop up. New behaviors start. That means an evolving culture.” In addition to her research, she has been a tireless advocate for conservation and animal rights and has been an outspoken climate change activist. She says the coronavirus pandemic has shown us how humans are affecting our global ecosystem. “We brought this pandemic to a large extent on ourselves — we have disrespected the natural world and animals, and we’ve been cutting down forests. Animals are being driven in closer contact with people.” she said. “This creates a fantastic environment where animal-to-human disease can be transmitted.” She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans “disrespecting” the earth, will be a tougher opponent. However, she remains hopeful. She urges global collective action and a renewed commitment, which, she believes, can help turn the tide. “It’s cooperation that we need if we’re going to reverse climate change and loss of biodiversity.” she said. 8. What was Goodall’s new method for chimpanzee research? A. Analyzing experimental data. B. Observing and recording their behavior. C. Living among them in the wild. D. Grouping them and making comparisons. 9. What is the groundbreaking finding of Goodall? A. Chimpanzees are endangered species. B. Chimpanzees are ancestors of humans. C. Chimpanzees have their own language. D. Chimpanzees have complex social systems. 10. Why did Goodall mention COVID-19? A. To stress the need of global cooperation. B. To highlight the value of pandemic prevention. C. To show the consequences of disrespecting nature. D. To reveal the impact of COVID-19 on global health. 11. In which column of a magazine is this text most likely to appear? A. Pioneer. B. Opinion. C. Wildlife. D. Lifestyle. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了古道尔对黑猩猩所作研究的故事。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions.”（古道尔的研究是革命性的，因为她将自己融入了野生黑猩猩群体，以了解它们的社会和家庭互动。）可知，古道尔研究黑猩猩的方法是和他们一起住在野外。故选C项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.”（事实上，他们可以使用和制造工具，他们可以很暴力，可以有一种战争，但他们也是有爱心和无私的。）可知，古道尔突破性的发现是黑猩猩有复杂的社会关系。故选D项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段“She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans ‘disrespecting’ the earth, will be a tougher opponent.”（她警告说，虽然我们已经度过了COVID-19，但气候变化——人类‘不尊重’地球的另一个结果——将是一个更强硬的对手。）可知，古道尔提到COVID-19的原因是为了展示不尊重自然的后果。故选C项。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research.”（在过去的60年里，她开创性的研究改变了我们看待人类与黑猩猩关系的方式，并向我们展示了一种全新的野生动物研究方法。）可知，古道尔是一名研究黑猩猩的先锋人物，推断出这篇文章最有可能出现在杂志的先锋栏目中。故选A项。 D The idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children, concluded as a “lying down” lifestyle, recently struck a chord with many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society. Many millennials (千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”. They said they hate the “involution (内卷),” joking that they would rather give up some of what they have than get trapped in an endless competition against peers. “Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis (宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage (按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.” Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest. It is true that with the great improvement of living conditions, some Chinese youth have partially lost the spirit of hardship and are not willing to bear too much hard work. But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of courage far beyond their reach. “Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.” 12. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 mean? A. Warned. B. Criticized. C. Touched. D. Amused. 13. What might have caused the “lying down” lifestyle among the young? A. Improvements in living conditions. B. Growing pressure from family and social life. C. Increasing material possessions from families. D. Temporary adjustment to failure in competitions. 14. What’s the scholar’s attitude toward the “lying down” group? A. Unclear. B. Intolerant. C. Supportive. D. Understanding. 15. What can be inferred about the young generation from the text? A. They never really drop their responsibilities. B. They really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle. C. They find their dreams far beyond their reach. D. They would rather escape than take challenges. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了当今年轻人“躺平”的现象。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据画线词后的“many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society(在这个快节奏、竞争激烈的社会中，许多渴望停下来喘口气的年轻人)”可知，年轻人渴望在快节奏、竞争激烈的社会中停下来喘口气，由此可推知，年轻人对“躺平”这种生活方式是认同并受其影响的，touch意为“触动，影响”。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Many millennials(千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”.(许多千禧一代和Z世代向《环球时报》抱怨说，包括工作压力、家庭纠纷和财务压力在内的负担使他们“碰壁”。)”可知，来自家庭和社会的各方面压力导致了年轻人“躺平”的生活态度。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段““Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis(宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage(按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.”(一位学者说：“他们不总是遵循奋斗、忍耐和牺牲的‘美德’来承受压力，而是更喜欢暂时躺平作为宣泄和调整。难怪一些年轻人在当今从抚养孩子到支付按揭的压力越来越大的情况下，会试图过上简单的生活，把烦恼抛在脑后。”)”可知，这位学者认为，一些年轻人面临越来越大的压力，所以他们暂时躺下作为宣泄和调整，想要抛弃烦恼、过简单的生活，由此可推测出，他对“躺平”一族的生活态度表示理解。故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest.(有趣的是，《环球时报》采访的大多数声称自己是躺平哲学的忠实粉丝的千禧一代和Z世代，他们承认他们只接受暂时的躺平作为短暂的休息。)”和最后一段中的“It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.(逃跑是没有用的。我迟早要‘站起来’面对现实。)”可知，年轻人只是暂时躺平喘口气，他们早晚还会起来面对现实，由此可推测出，年轻人从未真正放下责任。故选A。 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 1.5 分，满分 7.5 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。 When planning for a new job, many people will go through a job interview. ___16___ Fear of the unknown, fear of public rejection and fear of personal criticism all come together in one meeting. So how should you prepare for a job interview ？ It's often a combination of careful research, psychology and an ability to think on your feet. One way is to do a great deal of research, like finding the requirements of the job, the company's product lines, the industry's standard salary for the position, the interviewer, etc. When doing research, don't forget to learn about whether you have unique qualifications for the position. ___17___Thus, prepare your unique aspects which will make you stand out among interviewees ahead of time. ___18___ Do you express your ideas clearly? Do you actively listen to others ? How you perform in the interview will leave a deep impression on the interviewers. Some job seekers prepare for a job interview by conducting their own mock （模拟） interviews. A trusted friend or even a professional job coach can act as an interviewer, asking many of the same questions a real interviewer might ask. In view of your performance, these people may be able to point out your trouble spots.___19___ There're also numerous resources job seekers can use to prepare for a job interview. ___20___ Many cities also have programs helping first-time workers find jobs. They may offer classes on how to prepare for a job interview or provide job coaches who can conduct mock interviews. A. You should consider how to be qualified. B. Self-help books may be available at public libraries. C. Another way is to work on your outward appearance. D. It can be one of the most stressful events in a person's life. E. Then, you can improve yourself by overcoming your weaknesses. F. Observing how you communicate with others is equally important. G. An interviewer's job is to recommend the best qualified applicants. 【答案】16. D 17. G 18. F 19. E 20. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章为准备面试的人介绍了几种方法。 【16题详解】 空前一句提到“当计划找一份新工作时，很多人都会经历面试”，此空设于段中，与上文存在指代关系，结合空后“对未知的害怕，对大众拒绝的害怕和对个人批评的害怕都在一个会议上一起到来”，由此可知，面试是让人害怕，有压力的事情，所以D项“在一个人的生活中，它可能是最有压力的事情之一”切题，该项中的It指代上文的job interview。故选D项。 【17题详解】 空前提到做研究时，不要忘记了解你是否具备与某个职位相关的特殊资质，根据空后“所以，准备你特殊的方面，这会让你在众多面试者中提前脱颖而出”，所以此空与上下文存在因果关系，G项“面试官的工作就是推荐最适合的申请者”解释了为什么要了解自己是否具备与某个职位相关的特殊资质，符合上下文逻辑关系，故选G项。 【18题详解】 此空设于段首，是本段的主题句，根据本段后面内容express your ideas clearly及actively listen to others可知，本段是讲述沟通的重要性，F项“观察你如何与别人沟通也同样重要”切题，故选F项。 【19题详解】 此空设于段尾，与上文存在顺承关系。空前一句提到，模拟面试中，他人可能会指出你的缺陷，然后，你就能克服自己的缺点，提升自己。E项中“your weaknesses”与空前“your trouble spots”呼应，故选E项。 【20题详解】 根据本段首句“有大量供找工作的人可以使用的资源来让他们准备面试”可知，接下来应该具体讲述帮助人们准备面试的资源，B项“在公共图书馆或许能找到自学的书”与空后“很多城市也有帮助第一次找工作的人的项目”并列，都是讲具体的帮助面试的资源。故选B项。 【点睛】 第三部分：语言知识运用(共四节，满分 35 分) 第一节(共 15 小题;每小题 1 分，满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I'm a geologist.

I was asleep when I heard the crash and felt all the weight of the tree. When I woke up, it was already over me. I felt pain immediately and it wasn’t too long before my legs and my arm went numb (麻木). The whole left side of my body felt like it was on fire. I was covered by the debris (残骸) of the tree from basically head to toe, and I couldn’t move a muscle. At first I thought it was abad dream, then I realized it wasn’t, and I just started shouting for help. The first set of responders, as a rescue team, arrived on the scene within 10 minutes after Sherri, my wife, made the phone call around 6 a.m. The first responders were trying to get to know how I was laying and where I was facing, but they could barely hear me, because the only opening in the wall behind me was only about a softball size hole. I tried my best to get some fresh air through this small hole. It was probably 7 a.m. when they found out where my head was, and they were able to punch (凿) through the wall and pass an oxygen mask for me. Still, my breathing was very labored. During that second hour, there were many times when I thought I was going to die. The breathing itself was so hard, and the pain was so huge that it nearly took my concentration off of breathing. My wife and kids, who were safe on the ground, were worried. But at that time, I didn’t know anything going on besides my pain and the breathing. I was able to communicate with somebody there, but doing so would make breathing even more difficult. When I said it was too hard to hold on and I wanted to give it up, a voice said to me: 注意： (1)续写词数应为 150 个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1：“We need you to keep fighting! Just concentrate on that breathing!” ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Para 2：I was reunited with my family after leaving the hospital. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Possible version one: “We need you to keep fighting! Just concentrate on that breathing!” It was from one of the rescuers. His voice was firm and full of determination. I felt a glimmer of hope and mustered all my strength to focus on my breathing. With every ounce of willpower I had, I fought against the pain and the urge to give up. Minutes felt like hours, but I clung to his words, knowing that they were my lifeline. Hours later, I was finally rescued from the debris, and the rescue team immediately called an ambulance for me to send me to the hospital. I was reunited with my family after leaving the hospital. The moment I saw my wife and kids, tears welled up in my eyes. We hugged tightly, as if we’d never let go. My children’s faces were filled with relief and joy, and my wife’s eyes were red from crying. I realized how precious life was and how lucky I was to be alive. From then on, every day became a gift, and I cherished every moment with my family, knowing that we had overcome a great hardship together. Possible version two: “We need you to keep fighting! Just concentrate on that breathing!” It was my wife. Through the chaos and debris, her voice cut through, trembling yet resolute. I could picture her on the other side of the wall, tears streaming down her face. Her words were like a warm embrace, giving me the power to grit my teeth and battle the pain. I knew I couldn’t let her down and I just insisted in the hardest time. Hours later, I was finally rescued from the dark, and I was immediately sent to the hospital for further medical examinations. I was reunited with my family after leaving the hospital. The joy on my children’s faces as they saw me walking through the door was overwhelming; it filled my heart with warmth and gratitude for being alive. We spent the evening together, sharing stories and laughter, cherishing every moment. This experience not only brought us closer but also taught us valuable lessons. It reminded us to appreciate each day, and even in the darkest time, there is still hope. Life goes on, and so do we, stronger and more united than ever before. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者遭遇树砸房屋这一事件为线索展开，讲述了作者在房屋被树砸后被困，救援人员展开救援，作者在艰难处境中坚持，最终获救并与家人团聚的经历。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘我们需要你继续战斗！专注于呼吸！’”可知，第一段描写了作者听到救援人员鼓励后，感受到希望，努力集中精力呼吸，与痛苦和放弃念头抗争，最终被救出并送往医院的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“出院后我与家人团聚了。”可知，第二段描述了作者与家人团聚时的场景，大家相拥而泣，作者由此感悟到生命的珍贵，珍惜与家人共度的时光。 2.续写线索：听到鼓励、坚持求生——被救送医——出院与家人团聚——感悟生命珍贵、珍惜家人 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①紧紧抓住；坚持：cling to/hold on to ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③拥抱：hug/embrace 情绪类 ①宽慰：relief/comfort ②喜悦：joy/ delight 【点睛】[高分句型1] The moment I saw my wife and kids, tears welled up in my eyes.

These small, sealed packages containing random collectible figures have created a global craze, particularly among teenagers and young adults. The Blind Box Phenomenon Standard blind boxes are priced at ¥59 — 69 ($8 —10) in China, while international markets see higher prices-up to $15 in the US and £12 in the UK. The excitement comes from not knowing which of the 12 possible figures you’ll get, with rare “hidden” versions appearing only once in every 144 boxes. This system has proven incredibly successful, with Pop Mart’s 2024 revenue reaching ¥13 billion ($1.8 billion). Global Expansion Challenges As Pop Mart expanded to over 30 countries, problems emerged. In London, a limited-edition Labubu release caused such crowding that police were called. Meanwhile, fake versions of popular figures flooded markets in Southeast Asia, selling for half the price but with poor quality Membership Benefits To maintain customer loyalty, Pop Mart offers: * 1 membership point per ¥1 spent * Early access to new releases for Gold members (¥5,000+ annual spending) * Increased chances (from 1/ 144 to 1/72) of finding hidden figures when buying full sets 1. What makes blind boxes particularly attractive for buyers? A. Their low cost. B. Their large size. C. Their mysterious content. D. Their educational value. 2. Which benefit do Gold members receive when purchasing full sets of blind boxes? A. Free shipping on all orders B. Double membership points per purchase C. Guaranteed hidden figure in every full set D. Increased chance of finding hidden figures (from 1/ 144 to 1/72) 3. Based on the article, which of the best explains why this blind box model is so successful? A. The high price of blind boxes ensures premium quality. B. Pop Mart only sells limited-edition figures in certain countries. C. The random nature and rarity of hidden figures create repeated purchases. D. The company avoids international expansion to prevent counterfeit products. B “I can’t live without my mobile phone!” is what I often hear people say as they talk about how mobiles have become an essential part of their lives. The all so common sight of heads bent, eyes staring at mobile screens and fingers busy tapping away repeats itself across major cities around the world. Whenever there is a moment to spare while on the train, taxi or waiting in a queue, people busy themselves with their mobile phones. Some people believe our unhealthy obsession (着迷) with mobile phones is destroying how we appreciate the little things in life or miss the moments that matter. The truth is that technology overall should be seen as just a tool to improve our lives. Mobile phones have certainly had a great influence on our lives, but I truly believe it is for the better. It’s changed the way we communicate, whether for work or play. We are now less constrained (限制) by time and geographical location. With my mobile phone, I can dial into conference calls while stuck in a traffic jam, or reply to urgent e-mails while on the go. I can send a text message or share photos and videos with friends who aren’t living in the same country. My phone calendar keeps my life organized, and even Facebook, Twitter, and instant messaging are now accessible from mobile phones! The mobile revolution isn’t just changing the lives of urbanities (都市人) like myself. I know of a young Bangladeshi woman named Shompa Akhter who is crazy about fashion and design. She dreamt about starting her own business and she did just that, opening a shop in Kushtia featuring her own creations. Dealing with supplies in different towns was a problem for Shompa — purchase orders had to either be hand delivered or mailed out to supplies. Shompa also found it tough publicizing her business to potential customers outside her town. But once she learnt to operate the mobile phone, she was addicted. The 25-year-old businesswoman now stays in touch easily with her suppliers. Mobile e-mail is a blessing in her life. Who would have thought that mobility could bring about such enormous change? It shouldn’t really be a surprise though. 4. In the first two paragraphs, the author wants to show ________. A. mobile phones make people communicate less B. mobile phones make people’s life more enjoyable C. people’s health is greatly affected by mobile phones D. people become addicted to mobile phones in daily life 5. What’s the author’s attitude towards mobile phones? ________. A. Doubtful B. Supportive C Critical D. Uninterested 6. Paragraph 5 is mainly about ________. A. New functions of mobile phones B. New changes in Information Age C. The advantages of mobile phones D. The author’s personal experiences 7. How is the text mainly developed? A. By inferring. B. By analysing causes. C. By giving examples. D. By comparing different ideas. C Dr. Jane Goodall was only 26 when she traveled to Tanzania to learn about wild chimpanzees in 1960. The world knew very little about the species at the time. Over the course of six decades, her groundbreaking research has transformed the way we see human relationships with chimpanzees and has showed us an entirely new method for wildlife research. Goodall’s research was revolutionary because she integrated herself within the wild chimpanzee communities to learn about their social and familial interactions. She named each animal and formed close bonds with them, learning how very similar they were to us. “Their behavior, with their gestures, kissing, embracing, holding hands,” she said of what she learned about chimpanzees in her research. “In fact, they can use and make tools, the fact they can be violent and can have a kind of war — but they are also loving and selfless.” Goodall said even after all this time, there is still so much to learn from them. “It’s like if you’re watching a group of people. New ideas crop up. New behaviors start. That means an evolving culture.” In addition to her research, she has been a tireless advocate for conservation and animal rights and has been an outspoken climate change activist. She says the coronavirus pandemic has shown us how humans are affecting our global ecosystem. “We brought this pandemic to a large extent on ourselves — we have disrespected the natural world and animals, and we’ve been cutting down forests. Animals are being driven in closer contact with people.” she said. “This creates a fantastic environment where animal-to-human disease can be transmitted.” She warns while we’ve made it through COVID-19, climate change, another result of humans “disrespecting” the earth, will be a tougher opponent. However, she remains hopeful. She urges global collective action and a renewed commitment, which, she believes, can help turn the tide. “It’s cooperation that we need if we’re going to reverse climate change and loss of biodiversity.” she said. 8. What was Goodall’s new method for chimpanzee research? A. Analyzing experimental data. B. Observing and recording their behavior. C. Living among them in the wild. D. Grouping them and making comparisons. 9. What is the groundbreaking finding of Goodall? A. Chimpanzees are endangered species. B. Chimpanzees are ancestors of humans. C. Chimpanzees have their own language. D. Chimpanzees have complex social systems. 10. Why did Goodall mention COVID-19? A. To stress the need of global cooperation. B. To highlight the value of pandemic prevention. C. To show the consequences of disrespecting nature. D. To reveal the impact of COVID-19 on global health. 11. In which column of a magazine is this text most likely to appear? A. Pioneer. B. Opinion. C. Wildlife. D. Lifestyle. D The idea of low material desire, low consumption and refusing to work, marry and have children, concluded as a “lying down” lifestyle, recently struck a chord with many young Chinese who are eager to take pause to breathe in this fast-paced and highly-competitive society. Many millennials (千禧一代) and generation Zs complained to the Global Times that burdens, including work stress, family disputes and financial strains, have pushed them “against the wall”. They said they hate the “involution (内卷),” joking that they would rather give up some of what they have than get trapped in an endless competition against peers. “Instead of always following the ‘virtues’ of struggle, endure and sacrifice to bear the stresses, they prefer a temporary lying down as catharsis (宣泄) and adjustment,” said a scholar. “It is no wonder that some young people, under the growing pressures from child-raising to paying the mortgage (按揭) today, would try to live in a simple way and leave the worries behind.” Interestingly, the majority of millennials and Gen Zs reached by the Global Times, who claim to be big fans of the lying down philosophy, acknowledged that they only accept a temporary lying down as a short rest. It is true that with the great improvement of living conditions, some Chinese youth have partially lost the spirit of hardship and are not willing to bear too much hard work. But in fact, lying down is not entirely comfortable. Young people who lie down always feel guilty about their constant loss of courage far beyond their reach. “Young people on campus have both aspirations and confusion about their future, but most of us have rejected setting ourselves up in chains to waste opportunities and challenges,” a postgraduate student told the Global Times. “It’s no use running away. I have to ‘stand up’ and face the reality sooner or later.” 12. What does the underlined phrase in paragraph 1 mean? A. Warned. B. Criticized. C. Touched. D. Amused. 13. What might have caused the “lying down” lifestyle among the young? A. Improvements in living conditions. B. Growing pressure from family and social life. C. Increasing material possessions from families. D. Temporary adjustment to failure in competitions. 14. What’s the scholar’s attitude toward the “lying down” group? A. Unclear. B. Intolerant. C. Supportive. D. Understanding. 15. What can be inferred about the young generation from the text? A. They never really drop their responsibilities. B. They really enjoy the “lying down” lifestyle. C. They find their dreams far beyond their reach. D They would rather escape than take challenges. 第二节(共 5 小题;每小题 1.5 分，满分 7.5 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。 When planning for a new job, many people will go through a job interview. ___16___ Fear of the unknown, fear of public rejection and fear of personal criticism all come together in one meeting.

I was asleep when I heard the crash and felt all the weight of the tree. When I woke up, it was already over me. I felt pain immediately and it wasn’t too long before my legs and my arm went numb (麻木). The whole left side of my body felt like it was on fire. I was covered by the debris (残骸) of the tree from basically head to toe, and I couldn’t move a muscle. At first I thought it was abad dream, then I realized it wasn’t, and I just started shouting for help. The first set of responders, as a rescue team, arrived on the scene within 10 minutes after Sherri, my wife, made the phone call around 6 a.m. The first responders were trying to get to know how I was laying and where I was facing, but they could barely hear me, because the only opening in the wall behind me was only about a softball size hole. I tried my best to get some fresh air through this small hole. It was probably 7 a.m. when they found out where my head was, and they were able to punch (凿) through the wall and pass an oxygen mask for me. Still, my breathing was very labored. During that second hour, there were many times when I thought I was going to die. The breathing itself was so hard, and the pain was so huge that it nearly took my concentration off of breathing. My wife and kids, who were safe on the ground, were worried. But at that time, I didn’t know anything going on besides my pain and the breathing. I was able to communicate with somebody there, but doing so would make breathing even more difficult. When I said it was too hard to hold on and I wanted to give it up, a voice said to me: 注意： (1)续写词数应为 150 个左右; (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Para 1：“We need you to keep fighting!
