As an amateur (业余的) radio operator, Moffatt has connected with people worldwide. “By sending signals to satellites, I’ve talked to people from the Arctic to the Antarctic,” Moffatt said. And on Wednesday at the Ontario Science Centre, the 96-year-old got to go even further. An amateur radio connection allowed the senior and students to speak with Commander Luca aboard the International Space Station. By connection, Moffatt told the astronaut she was very excited, admitting that this was an unrealized dream she had for many years. Then Moffatt asked if Luca could keep the space station clean and tidy, adding that as a “mature woman” she had done lots of cleaning in her life. When Moffatt was a young girl, she moved to Toronto with her family, hoping there would be chances for a girl interested in science. She desperately wanted to go to university, but moving house placed a significant burden on their finances. Not discouraged, she took a course in amateur radio, then a popular technology, and shortly after she got her license. After retiring, Moffatt started volunteering at the Ontario Science Centre. With her radio license, she helped set up the centre’s first radio shack (无线电设备室). The idea to connect with the International Space Station came just after Moffatt’s 36th birthday. Finally after 60 years with the help of amateur radio operators and NASA, Moffatt made her connection. While the connection wasn’t very clear, she was moved to tears, telling those who had gathered to watch that it was the “highlight” of her life. Moffatt plans to keep volunteering at the centre introducing younger people to the older form of technology, and to keep speaking to anyone who can pick up her signal. “It’s a technology even older than me and I love amateur radio,” Moffatt added. 4. What can we learn about Moffatt from the first two paragraphs? A. She attempted an Internet talk. B. She was an environmentalist. C. She was into space exploration. D. She achieved a lifetime goal. 5. Why did Moffatt and her family move to Toronto? A. To get a radio license. B. To seek better opportunities. C. To attend a radio school. D. To survive financial troubles. 6. What does Moffatt plan to do further? A. Promote radio communication. B. Continue her passion for radio. C. Start her radio shack business. D. Acquire new scientific abilities. 7. Which of the following can best describe Moffatt? A. Creative and ambitious. B. Out-spoken and energetic. C. Passionate and determined. D. Humorous and generous. 【答案】4. D 5. B 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了96岁业余无线电爱好者Jean Moffatt的传奇经历，她通过无线电与国际空间站通话实现了毕生梦想，并始终保持着对无线电技术的热爱与坚持。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“An amateur radio connection allowed the senior and students to speak with Commander Luca aboard the International Space Station. By connection, Moffatt told the astronaut she was very excited, admitting that this was an unrealized dream she had for many years. (通过业余无线电通讯，这位老人和学生们得以与国际空间站上的Luca指挥官对话。连线时，Moffatt告诉宇航员自己激动万分，坦言这是她多年来未能实现的梦想)”可知，Moffatt通过无线电与国际空间站的宇航员对话，终于实现了毕生的目标。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“When Moffatt was a young girl, she moved to Toronto with her family, hoping there would be chances for a girl interested in science. (当Moffatt还是个小女孩的时候，她和家人搬到了多伦多，希望那里会有一个对科学感兴趣的女孩的机会)”可知，搬家是为了寻求更好的发展机会。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Moffatt plans to keep volunteering at the centre, introducing younger people to the older form of technology, and to keep speaking to anyone who can pick up her signal. (Moffatt计划继续在中心担任志愿者，向年轻人介绍这项历史悠久的通信技术，并与所有能接收到她信号的人保持通话)”可知，她计划继续她对无线电的热情。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“For decades, Jean Moffatt has been reaching out over the airwaves. (几十年来，Jean Moffatt一直通过无线电波与外界保持联系)”和第三段中“Not discouraged, she took a course in amateur radio, then a popular technology, and shortly after she got her license. After retiring, Moffatt started volunteering at the Ontario Science Centre. (她没有气馁，报名参加了当时颇为流行的业余无线电课程，不久后便考取了执照。退休后，莫法特开始在安大略科学中心担任志愿者)”可知，她对无线电的热爱贯穿一生，这表明她富有激情；根据第三段中“She desperately wanted to go to university, but moving house placed a significant burden on their finances. Not discouraged, she took a course in amateur radio, then a popular technology, and shortly after she got her license. (她曾极度渴望上大学，但搬家给家庭带来了沉重的经济负担。她没有气馁，报名参加了当时颇为流行的业余无线电课程，不久后便考取了执照)”和第四段中“The idea to connect with the International Space Station came just after Moffatt’s 36th birthday.

The city of Helsinki is finding out. A trial in Finland’s capital is using a delivery robot in two neighborhoods to see if this new, self-driving and pollution-free method could help with the holiday stress. The HeRo robot that is being tested, is a project of Forum Virium, an innovative Finnish company. The trial will be running through the end of December 2023. The goal is to show how packages can be quickly delivered to people’s homes with great accuracy even during the holiday season. HeRo is not just a delivery robot, it’s electric and operates without any dangerous emissions, plus it is self-navigating (导航) and talks. The delivery robot was made by the French robotics firm TwinswHeel and uses an interface created by the Finnish company LMAD. The four-wheeled vehicle can carry up to 300 kilograms and can travel up to 20 kilometers on just one charge of its lithium(锂)battery pack. HeRo uses a combination of GPS and onboard sensors(传感器)to run through the city’s streets. HeRo can carry several orders at once. Each order is in a separate locker and customers can open their lockers electronically. In just one hour, the robot delivers packages from a few shops to people in the Ruoholahti and North Jätkäsaari areas. No other delivery service is as fast or as clean. This isn’t HeRo’s first appearance on Helsinki streets. From May to August 2023, there was a first phase trial. It carried packages from Würth Center (a place that gives tools and supplies for industry) to nearby workplaces. These trials are part of the international URBANE project. The project wants to find new, green ways to make logistics better for both companies and people. Soon, there will be new trials in cities in Spain and Greece. Using self-driving robots for zero-emission delivery is an idea that should be used all over the world. 8. What is the purpose of the trial in Helsinki? A. To see if robots can replace human delivery workers. B. To find out if robots can speed up Christmas deliveries. C. To test if robots can reduce pollution during Christmas. D. To check if robots can improve the accuracy of deliveries. 9. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the HeRo robot? A. It is self-navigating. B. It has onboard sensors. C. It can carry up to 300 kilograms. D. It can travel unlimited distances on one charge. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. New trials will be expanded to other cities. B. The URBANE project only focuses on Helsinki. C. Zero emission delivery is already widely applied. D. The HeRo robot has been on the streets of Helsinki only once. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. Pollution-free Method Proves Popular B. Robots Are Helping to Deliver Packages C. A Delivery Robot Improves Service Quality D. Helsinki Takes the Lead in Holiday Deliveries 【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了芬兰首都赫尔辛基正在测试一款名为HeRo的电动无人配送机器人，旨在验证其在圣诞节等节假日高峰期能否实现高效、零污染的包裹配送，并介绍了该机器人的技术参数、功能特点、历史测试情况。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“Can a robot help speed up Christmas deliveries? The city of Helsinki is finding out. A trial in Finland’ s capital is using a delivery robot in two neighborhoods to see if this new, self-driving and pollution-free method could help with the holiday stress.(机器人能助力加快圣诞节期间的快递派送速度吗？赫尔辛基市正在探寻答案。芬兰首都赫尔辛基正在两个街区对一款配送机器人进行试验，旨在研究这种新型的、自动驾驶且无污染的配送方式是否能够缓解节日期间的物流压力。)”可知，赫尔辛基进行试验的目的是想弄清楚机器人是否能加快圣诞节期间的快递派送速度，通过在两个街区使用配送机器人来检验这种新方式能否缓解节日期间的压力。故选B。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“HeRo is not just a delivery robot, it’s electric and operates without any dangerous emissions, plus it is self-navigating (导航) and talks. The delivery robot was made by the French robotics firm TwinswHeel and uses an interface created by the Finnish company LMAD. The four-wheeled vehicle can carry up to 300 kilograms and can travel up to 20kilometers on just one charge of its lithium(锂)battery pack. HeRo uses a combination of GPS and onboard sensors (传感器) to run through the city’s streets.( HeRo不仅仅是一款配送机器人，它使用电力驱动，运行过程中不产生任何有害排放物，此外，它还具备自主导航功能并且能够与人交流。这款配送机器人由法国机器人公司TwinswHeel制造，并采用了芬兰公司LMAD开发的交互界面。这个四轮机器人最大载重量可达300公斤，一次充电后，其锂电池组可支持它行驶20公里。HeRo综合运用全球定位系统（GPS）和车载传感器在城市街道上行驶。)”可知，HeRo机器人是电动的，无污染排放，具备自主导航功能，使用全球定位系统（GPS）和车载传感器在城市街道行驶，四轮的它最大载重量可达300公斤，一次充电其锂电池组可支持它行驶20公里。也就是说，选项A、B、C都是HeRo的特点，只有选项D“It can travel unlimited distances on one charge.(它一次充电可以行驶无限的距离)”与原文表述不符。故选D。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“This isn’t HeRo’s first appearance on Helsinki streets. From May to August 2023, there was a first phase trial. It carried packages from Würth Center (a place that gives tools and supplies for industry) to nearby workplaces. These trials are part of the international URBANE project. The project wants to find new, green ways to make logistics better for both companies and people. Soon, there will be new trials in cities in Spain and Greece. Using self-driving robots for zero-emission delivery is an idea that should be used all over the world.(这并非HeRo首次出现在赫尔辛基的街头。在2023年5月至8月期间，进行了第一阶段的试验。当时它将货物从伍尔特中心（Würth Center，一个为工业提供工具和物资的场所）运送到附近的工作地点。这些试验是国际“URBANE 项目”的一部分。该项目旨在寻找新的、环保的方式，以便让物流服务对公司和民众都更有利。很快，西班牙和希腊的城市也将开展新的试验。使用自动驾驶机器人实现零排放配送，这个理念值得在全球范围内推广应用。)”可知，HeRo机器人在赫尔辛基不是第一次进行试验，这些试验是国际URBANE项目的一部分，该项目旨在找到新的绿色方式让物流更好，并且很快在西班牙和希腊的城市会有新的试验。由此推知，新的试验将扩展到其他城市。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章主要讲述了赫尔辛基市正在进行一项试验，使用HeRo配送机器人在两个街区进行快递派送，以检验其是否能加快圣诞节期间的快递派送速度，同时介绍了HeRo机器人的特点、之前的试验情况以及未来的试验计划等，核心内容围绕机器人参与快递派送展开。选项B“Robots Are Helping to Deliver Packages(机器人正在助力派送包裹)”准确地概括了文章主要内容，可以作为最佳标题。故选B。 D In a groundbreaking study in 2024, biologists discovered that plants communicate through complex networks of fungal threads (真菌丝). When attacked by insects, bean plants release chemical signals through these threads, warning neighbouring plants to produce poison. Dr. Elena Torres, lead researcher, compares it to an “underground Internet”. “One stressed plant can activate defenses across an entire forest,” she says. This finding challenges the view that plants are passive organisms. Sound also plays a role. Using highly sensitive microphones, scientists recorded ultrasonic pulses (超声波的) given off by corn sprouts under drought stress. When these recordings were played to other plants, their roots grew towards the sound source. “It’s as if they’re ‘hearing’ their peers’ distress,” explains Dr. Hiroshi Nakamura. In another experiment, pea plants that were exposed to the sound of caterpillars eating leaves produced higher levels of defensive chemicals. This sound signaling could change pest control in agriculture. Critics urge caution. Dr. Emily Carter argues, “We’re personifying plants. These reactions are biochemical, not conscious communication.” Moral debates also arise: If plants sense pain, should vegan diets be reconsidered? Torres responds firmly: “Plants lack nervous systems. Stress responses are survival mechanisms, not sentience.” Meanwhile, farmers in Brazil already use “plant whisperer” devices that translate leaf vibrations into data, predicting pest outbreaks days before visible damage. The consequences are vast. Geneticists are engineering crops with enhanced signaling abilities, creating “warning systems” for droughts or diseases. In Kenya, farmers grow corn together with signal-producing plants that prevent insects naturally. “This could reduce pesticide use by 70%,” says agronomist Kwame Okafor. As research speeds up, we edge closer to a world where forests “speak”, fields “warn”, and gardens “guide” — a silent dialogue that has been going on beneath our feet for ages, now interpreted by science. Recent advancements aim to apply plant communication commercially. A startup PhytoTech developed a sensor that interprets plant chemical SOS signals, informing farmers via app to water or fertilize. Trials in California vineyards reduced crop loss by 25%. However, critics warn against over-reliance: “Nature’s language is complex,” says ecologist Dr. Rachel Lin. “Simplifying it to apps risks missing deeper connections.” 12. How do bean plants respond to insect attacks according to Paragraph 1? A. By attracting helpful insects. B. By growing thicker leaves. C By producing complex sounds. D. By releasing chemical warnings. 13. What do you know about the pea plant experiment described in Paragraph 2? A. Plants ignore droughts. B. Plants prefer silence. C. Plants respond to pest sounds. D. Plants react to water sounds. 14. What does the underlined word “sentience” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Balance. B. Feeling. C. Competition. D. Information. 15. What is Rachel Lin’s attitude towards using apps to learn plant signals? A. Favourable. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了植物之间通过真菌网络进行复杂的交流，以及科学家们如何利用这些发现来改进农业实践。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“When attacked by insects, bean plants release chemical signals through these threads, warning neighbouring plants to produce poison.( 当受到昆虫的攻击时，豆类植物通过这些真菌丝释放化学信号，警告邻近的植物产生毒素。)”可知，当受到昆虫攻击时，豆类植物会通过真菌丝释放化学信号，警告邻近植物产生毒素。所以豆类植物对昆虫攻击的反应是释放化学警告。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In another experiment, pea plants that were exposed to the sound of caterpillars eating leaves produced higher levels of defensive chemicals.( 在另一项实验中，豌豆植物被暴露在毛毛虫吃叶子的声音中，产生了更高水平的防御性化学物质。)”可知，暴露在毛毛虫吃叶子的声音中的豌豆植物会产生更高水平的防御性化学物质。这表明植物会对害虫的声音做出反应。故选C项。 【14题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第三段中“Plants lack nervous systems. Stress responses are survival mechanisms, not…(植物没有神经系统。压力反应是一种生存机制，而不是……。)”可知，这里说的是植物缺乏神经系统，应激反应是生存机制，而不是感觉。这里的“sentience”意思是“感觉”，与B选项Feeling“感觉”意思相符。故选B项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中 “Nature’s language is complex,” says ecologist Dr. Rachel Lin. “Simplifying it to apps risks missing deeper connections.”(“大自然语言是复杂的，”生态学家Rachel Lin博士说。“将其简化为应用程序可能会失去更深层次的联系。”)”可知，她认为自然的语言是复杂的，将其简化为应用程序可能会错过更深层次的联系。所以她对使用应用程序来了解植物信号的态度是怀疑的。故选C项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) How to Introduce Friends to Other Friends You may find that you have two friends that you really want to introduce to each other. ___16___.

You cannot take it personally. It is not your fault that a friendship did not blossom. Sometimes, people, who in theory should get along, simply do not like each other. Do not push it if they do not become friends. No one likes being forced into a relationship. (如果你的朋友们合不来，你需要离开。你不能往心里去。友谊没有开花结果不是你的错。有时候，理论上应该和睦相处的人，就是不喜欢对方。如果他们没有成为朋友，不要强迫他们。没有人喜欢被迫进入一段关系)”可知，最后一段讨论的是如果介绍的朋友之间没有产生友谊应该如何处理，这里提出不应该强求，如果他们不喜欢对方，就应该放手。选项A“Let it go if they do not like each other (如果他们不喜欢对方，就放手吧)”能概括本段主旨，符合题意。故选A。 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) In 2018, Julie Silverman developed a bad cough.

If you are struggling to understand how to interpret body language of colleagues in different cultural contexts and how to respond, you may find yourself ____36____ (search) for a checklist of dos and don’ ts. But this isn’t necessarily the ____37____ (great) approach. Besides, you can start your interpretation ____38____ analysing groups, rather than looking at each gesture in isolation. For example, imagine that you are presenting an idea for a new process in a meeting, and your boss is smiling. Many experts would advise you that smiling is ____39____ (cultural) universal, so you might assume that your boss must be happy with your presentation. However, making this ____40____ (assume) without deeper investigation could prove problematic. If you take ____41____ second look at your boss, you might notice that she is also laughing slightly, looking down and moving her pen. This could mean a range of different things. How can you understand your boss’s reaction correctly? The answer is to check that your analysis of their body language matches with ____42____ the person says and how they say it. To understand the cultural influences ____43____ have led to her behaviour, it is first important to understand what cultural identity is. Many people use the terms “culture” and “nationality” interchangeably. However, generalising ____44____ (base) only on nationality can be risky. To help avoid this, the British Council _____45_____ (develop) a description of culture in the last few years. 【答案】36. searching 37. greatest 38. by 39. culturally 40. assumption 41. a 42. what 43. that##which 44. based 45. has developed 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何在不同的文化背景下解释他人的肢体语言以及如何做好回应，使自己感到更自信和更有效。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：如果你正在努力理解如何理解不同文化背景下同事的肢体语言，以及如何应对，你可能会发现自己正在寻找一份“注意事项”清单。短语“find +宾语+宾补”结构，search与宾语yourself之间为主动关系，所以此处使用现在分词形式作宾补。故填searching。 【37题详解】 考查形容词最高级。句意：但这并不一定是最好的方法。定冠词the后面用最高级形式greatest。故填greatest。 【38题详解】 考查介词。句意：此外，你可以通过分析群体来开始你的解读，而不是孤立地看待每个手势。结合句意，此处用by表示“通过某种方式”。故填by。 【39题详解】 考查副词。句意：许多专家会告诉你，微笑在文化中是普遍存在的，所以你可能会认为你的老板一定对你的演讲很满意。修饰形容词 universal可知用副词形式 culturally“在文化上”。故填culturally。 【40题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，在没有更深入调查的情况下做出这一假设可能会有问题。作动词的宾语，应用名词assumption。故填assumption。 【41题详解】 考查冠词。句意：如果你再看一眼你的老板，你可能会注意到她也在微微笑着，低头并移动着她的笔。此处为固定短语take a second look at意为“再看一看”。故填a。 【42题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：答案是检查你对他们肢体语言的分析是否与他们所说的以及他们说话的方式相匹配。此处为连接词引导宾语从句，从句缺少宾语，指的是事情，应用what。故填what。 【43题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：要理解导致她的行为的文化影响，首先要理解什么是文化认同。定语从句修饰先行词influences，在从句作主语，指物。故填that/which。 【44题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：然而，仅仅根据国籍进行概括是有风险的。短语be based on表示“根据”，此处为过去分词作定语。故填based。 【45题详解】 考查动词时态。句意：为了避免这种情况，英国文化协会在过去几年里发展了一种文化描述。此处为谓语动词，根据后文in the last few years可知为现在完成时，主语the British Council 为第三人称单数，助动词用has。故填has developed。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你的美国朋友David发来邮件，提到中国所取得的科技成就举世瞩目，他非常想了解一些中国科学家的光荣事迹。请你用英语给他写一封邮件，向他介绍一位你最钦佩的中国科学家，内容包括： 1.科学家的简介； 2.取得的主要成就； 3.对你的影响。 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。 Dear David, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear David, I’d like to introduce the scientist I admire most to you.

When he was 17, he moved to Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, to attend school. Once he arrived, he needed to get some documents from the Sudanese embassy (大使馆) . But when he went to look for the embassy, he couldn’t find it. He asked a few people for directions, and no one knew where it was. Then an older woman tapped him on the back. The lady said to him, “Hey, my son. ” “That was the first word, ” Kon recalled. “She said, ‘Hey, my son, how are you doing? ‘” The woman told Kon that she had seen him asking questions of multiple people as they passed, and she wondered if he needed money for food, or a place to stay. Then Kon realized that the woman thought he was homeless. “Because in Kenya, it’s very common,” Kon said. “Kids at 17, kids at 15, kids at 12—kids of any age can be on the street looking for survival. ” They cleared up the confusion, and the woman was able to give Kon directions to the embassy. Then she told him about the deeper reason she had asked if he needed help: because of her experience as a mother. “I wouldn’t want my child to be on the street,” the woman told him. “And anytime I see a child on the street, I feel like I have an obligation (义务) to help.” The woman’s generosity left a deep impression on Kon. And it inspired him to pay it forward, five years later, when he moved to Boston, Massachusetts. When he arrived there, Kon expected that everyone he saw would be well-off and successful. So he was shocked at the number of homeless people he encountered on the street. 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。 One day, outside a coffee shop, he observed an interaction between a young woman and a homeless man, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After learning the young man’s story, Kon knew it was time to pass on what that kind lady had done to him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: One day, outside a coffee shop, he observed an interaction between a young woman and a homeless man. The homeless man asked the young lady if she could spare change. And she said, “Why don’t you go to look for a job?” Kon reflected back to that moment five years earlier, when the woman in Nairobi had mistaken him for a homeless person. Kon was still touched by her kindness. So he went up to the man, to see what he could do. He told Kon why he was on the street—because he made a mistake when he was in high school, and he couldn’t get a job now. After learning the young man’s story, Kon knew it was time to pass on what that kind lady had done to him. Kon bought the man some breakfast, and gave him a little bit of money. The young man was moved to tears and thanked him again and again. Today, it’s an encounter he reflects on often. For him, it was a reminder that you never know what people are going through unless you make a point to talk to them—the way the woman in Nairobi made an effort to talk to him. Kon hopes in the future he could start a non-profit to provide housing and social support for people living on the street—an idea partly inspired by his unsung hero. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，本文讲述了在肯尼亚长大的Biar Kon在寻找苏丹大使馆时被一位女士误以为是无家可归的孩子，女士的善举和解释给Kon留下深刻印象。五年后，当Kon搬到美国马萨诸塞州的波士顿时，看到街头众多无家可归的人，回想起女士的行为，这激发了他将这份善意传递下去。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“有一天，在一家咖啡店外，他观察到一名年轻女子和一名无家可归男子之间的互动。”可知，第一段可描写流浪汉要求女士给他留下零钱，但是你女士建议他去找工作，Kon回想起了自己以前的经历，于是走到流浪汉面前询问他的情况，流浪汉告诉他因为高中时犯了一个错。 ②由第二段首句内容“在了解了这位年轻人的故事后，Kon知道是时候将这位善良的女士对他所做的一切传授给他了。”可知，第二段可描写Kon给流浪汉买了早餐，给了一些钱，流浪汉很感动。Kon希望创办一个非盈利组织，为流浪汉提供住房和社会支持。 2.续写线索：察觉——零钱——建议——回想——询问——了解——早餐——感动——希望——组织 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①询问：ask/question ②购买：buy/purchase ③给予：give/offer 情绪类 ①感动：touched/moved/stirred ②感谢：thank/appreciate 【点睛】[高分句型1] So he went up to the man, to see what he could do.(运用了what引导宾语从句) [高分句型2] He told Kon why he was on the street—because he made a mistake when he was in high school, and he couldn’t get a job now.

As an amateur (业余的) radio operator, Moffatt has connected with people worldwide. “By sending signals to satellites, I’ve talked to people from the Arctic to the Antarctic,” Moffatt said. And on Wednesday at the Ontario Science Centre, the 96-year-old got to go even further. An amateur radio connection allowed the senior and students to speak with Commander Luca aboard the International Space Station. By connection, Moffatt told the astronaut she was very excited, admitting that this was an unrealized dream she had for many years. Then Moffatt asked if Luca could keep the space station clean and tidy, adding that as a “mature woman” she had done lots of cleaning in her life. When Moffatt was a young girl, she moved to Toronto with her family, hoping there would be chances for a girl interested in science. She desperately wanted to go to university, but moving house placed a significant burden on their finances. Not discouraged, she took a course in amateur radio, then a popular technology, and shortly after she got her license. After retiring, Moffatt started volunteering at the Ontario Science Centre. With her radio license, she helped set up the centre’s first radio shack (无线电设备室). The idea to connect with the International Space Station came just after Moffatt’s 36th birthday. Finally after 60 years with the help of amateur radio operators and NASA, Moffatt made her connection. While the connection wasn’t very clear, she was moved to tears, telling those who had gathered to watch that it was the “highlight” of her life. Moffatt plans to keep volunteering at the centre, introducing younger people to the older form of technology, and to keep speaking to anyone who can pick up her signal. “It’s a technology even older than me and I love amateur radio,” Moffatt added. 4. What can we learn about Moffatt from the first two paragraphs? A. She attempted an Internet talk. B. She was an environmentalist. C. She was into space exploration. D. She achieved a lifetime goal. 5. Why did Moffatt and her family move to Toronto? A. To get a radio license. B. To seek better opportunities. C. To attend a radio school. D. To survive financial troubles. 6. What does Moffatt plan to do further? A. Promote radio communication. B. Continue her passion for radio. C. Start her radio shack business. D. Acquire new scientific abilities. 7. Which of the following can best describe Moffatt? A. Creative and ambitious. B. Out-spoken and energetic. C. Passionate and determined. D. Humorous and generous. C Can a robot help speed up Christmas deliveries? The city of Helsinki is finding out. A trial in Finland’s capital is using a delivery robot in two neighborhoods to see if this new, self-driving and pollution-free method could help with the holiday stress. The HeRo robot that is being tested, is a project of Forum Virium, an innovative Finnish company. The trial will be running through the end of December 2023. The goal is to show how packages can be quickly delivered to people’s homes with great accuracy even during the holiday season. HeRo is not just a delivery robot, it’s electric and operates without any dangerous emissions, plus it is self-navigating (导航) and talks. The delivery robot was made by the French robotics firm TwinswHeel and uses an interface created by the Finnish company LMAD. The four-wheeled vehicle can carry up to 300 kilograms and can travel up to 20 kilometers on just one charge of its lithium(锂)battery pack. HeRo uses a combination of GPS and onboard sensors(传感器)to run through the city’s streets. HeRo can carry several orders at once. Each order is in a separate locker and customers can open their lockers electronically. In just one hour, the robot delivers packages from a few shops to people in the Ruoholahti and North Jätkäsaari areas. No other delivery service is as fast or as clean. This isn’t HeRo’s first appearance on Helsinki streets. From May to August 2023, there was a first phase trial. It carried packages from Würth Center (a place that gives tools and supplies for industry) to nearby workplaces. These trials are part of the international URBANE project. The project wants to find new, green ways to make logistics better for both companies and people. Soon, there will be new trials in cities in Spain and Greece. Using self-driving robots for zero-emission delivery is an idea that should be used all over the world. 8. What is the purpose of the trial in Helsinki? A. To see if robots can replace human delivery workers. B. To find out if robots can speed up Christmas deliveries. C. To test if robots can reduce pollution during Christmas. D. To check if robots can improve the accuracy of deliveries. 9. Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of the HeRo robot? A. It is self-navigating. B. It has onboard sensors. C. It can carry up to 300 kilograms. D. It can travel unlimited distances on one charge. 10. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. New trials will be expanded to other cities. B. The URBANE project only focuses on Helsinki. C. Zero emission delivery is already widely applied. D. The HeRo robot has been on the streets of Helsinki only once. 11. What’s the best title for the text? A. Pollution-free Method Proves Popular B. Robots Are Helping to Deliver Packages C. A Delivery Robot Improves Service Quality D. Helsinki Takes the Lead in Holiday Deliveries D In a groundbreaking study in 2024, biologists discovered that plants communicate through complex networks of fungal threads (真菌丝). When attacked by insects, bean plants release chemical signals through these threads, warning neighbouring plants to produce poison. Dr. Elena Torres, lead researcher, compares it to an “underground Internet”. “One stressed plant can activate defenses across an entire forest,” she says. This finding challenges the view that plants are passive organisms. Sound also plays a role. Using highly sensitive microphones, scientists recorded ultrasonic pulses (超声波的) given off by corn sprouts under drought stress. When these recordings were played to other plants, their roots grew towards the sound source. “It’s as if they’re ‘hearing’ their peers’ distress,” explains Dr. Hiroshi Nakamura. In another experiment, pea plants that were exposed to the sound of caterpillars eating leaves produced higher levels of defensive chemicals. This sound signaling could change pest control in agriculture. Critics urge caution. Dr. Emily Carter argues, “We’re personifying plants. These reactions are biochemical, not conscious communication.” Moral debates also arise: If plants sense pain, should vegan diets be reconsidered? Torres responds firmly: “Plants lack nervous systems. Stress responses are survival mechanisms, not sentience.” Meanwhile, farmers in Brazil already use “plant whisperer” devices that translate leaf vibrations into data, predicting pest outbreaks days before visible damage. The consequences are vast. Geneticists are engineering crops with enhanced signaling abilities, creating “warning systems” for droughts or diseases. In Kenya, farmers grow corn together with signal-producing plants that prevent insects naturally. “This could reduce pesticide use by 70%,” says agronomist Kwame Okafor. As research speeds up, we edge closer to a world where forests “speak”, fields “warn”, and gardens “guide” — a silent dialogue that has been going on beneath our feet for ages, now interpreted by science. Recent advancements aim to apply plant communication commercially. A startup PhytoTech developed a sensor that interprets plant chemical SOS signals, informing farmers via app to water or fertilize. Trials in California vineyards reduced crop loss by 25%. However, critics warn against over-reliance: “Nature’s language is complex,” says ecologist Dr. Rachel Lin. “Simplifying it to apps risks missing deeper connections.” 12. How do bean plants respond to insect attacks according to Paragraph 1? A. By attracting helpful insects. B. By growing thicker leaves. C. By producing complex sounds. D. By releasing chemical warnings. 13. What do you know about the pea plant experiment described in Paragraph 2? A. Plants ignore droughts. B. Plants prefer silence. C. Plants respond to pest sounds. D. Plants react to water sounds. 14. What does the underlined word “sentience” mean in Paragraph 3? A. Balance. B. Feeling. C. Competition. D. Information. 15. What is Rachel Lin’s attitude towards using apps to learn plant signals? A. Favourable. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Unconcerned. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) How to Introduce Friends to Other Friends You may find that you have two friends that you really want to introduce to each other. ___16___.

If you are struggling to understand how to interpret body language of colleagues in different cultural contexts and how to respond, you may find yourself ____36____ (search) for a checklist of dos and don’ ts. But this isn’t necessarily the ____37____ (great) approach. Besides, you can start your interpretation ____38____ analysing groups, rather than looking at each gesture in isolation. For example, imagine that you are presenting an idea for a new process in a meeting, and your boss is smiling. Many experts would advise you that smiling is ____39____ (cultural) universal, so you might assume that your boss must be happy with your presentation. However, making this ____40____ (assume) without deeper investigation could prove problematic. If you take ____41____ second look at your boss, you might notice that she is also laughing slightly, looking down and moving her pen. This could mean a range of different things. How can you understand your boss’s reaction correctly? The answer is to check that your analysis of their body language matches with ____42____ the person says and how they say it. To understand the cultural influences ____43____ have led to her behaviour, it is first important to understand what cultural identity is. Many people use the terms “culture” and “nationality” interchangeably. However, generalising ____44____ (base) only on nationality can be risky.

When he was 17, he moved to Nairobi, the capital of Kenya, to attend school. Once he arrived, he needed to get some documents from the Sudanese embassy (大使馆) . But when he went to look for the embassy, he couldn’t find it. He asked a few people for directions, and no one knew where it was. Then an older woman tapped him on the back. The lady said to him, “Hey, my son. ” “That was the first word, ” Kon recalled. “She said, ‘Hey, my son, how are you doing? ‘” The woman told Kon that she had seen him asking questions of multiple people as they passed, and she wondered if he needed money for food, or a place to stay. Then Kon realized that the woman thought he was homeless. “Because in Kenya, it’s very common,” Kon said. “Kids at 17, kids at 15, kids at 12—kids of any age can be on the street looking for survival. ” They cleared up the confusion, and the woman was able to give Kon directions to the embassy. Then she told him about the deeper reason she had asked if he needed help: because of her experience as a mother. “I wouldn’t want my child to be on the street,” the woman told him. “And anytime I see a child on the street, I feel like I have an obligation (义务) to help.” The woman’s generosity left a deep impression on Kon. And it inspired him to pay it forward, five years later, when he moved to Boston, Massachusetts. When he arrived there, Kon expected that everyone he saw would be well-off and successful. So he was shocked at the number of homeless people he encountered on the street. 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。 One day, outside a coffee shop, he observed an interaction between a young woman and a homeless man, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After learning the young man’s story, Kon knew it was time to pass on what that kind lady had done to him. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
