A 【解析】 【原文】These days, many parents are worried because their children spend too much time indoors doing things such as watching TV or playing computer games. A 2018 study in the United Kingdom revealed that children spend about four hours outside per week, roughly 50% less than their parents had as kids. Spending time outdoors isn’t just enjoyable, it’s also necessary. Many researchers agree that kids who play outside are happier, better at paying attention and less anxious than kids who spend more time indoors. Spending time in nature can build their confidence. There’s a lot less structure than most types of indoor play, and they can choose how they interact with the nature around them. This gives them practice managing their own actions and encourages creativity and imagination. Being outdoors can also teach them responsibility. For example, if they are in charge of watering a plant, they can learn that they must take care of living things to keep them alive. Being outside gets kids moving too. Regardless of what they’re doing, there’s usually more exercise involved than if they were sitting on the couch. Not only is exercise good for kids’ bodies; it seems to make them more focused. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Zero Robotics: Coding for Space Exploration What Is Zero Robotics? Founded in 2009 by MIT’s Space Systems Laboratory and astronaut Greg Chamitoff, Zero Robotics is a free-of-charge coding (编程) competition. Students get the extraordinary chance to program SPHERES satellites aboard the ISS. Teams start by taking on annual challenges in virtual simulations. The best teams then enter a thrilling live final on the ISS, with an astronaut in charge of the action. Tournament tracks at a Glance Tournament Grades/Age Duration Team Size Key Feature High School 9-12 (14-20 yrs) Sept-Dec 5-20 students Final on the ISS Middle School 5th-9th graders 5 weeks (Jun 24-Aug 2) 7-20 students Free training for beginners How to Participate Qualification (资格): High school students (not in college yet) from the US, Russia, ESA member states, and Australia can join the high school tournament.

It is a disorder that does not have one single cause and can take many forms. Most often, it creates difficulty in communicating and interacting with others. Severe autism may leave someone unable to speak entirely or function without assistance. But many people with autism have led rewarding or even outstanding lives. One such person is Haley Moss. As a three-year-old, Haley was able to do difficult tasks such as finishing large puzzles. However, she couldn’t say simple words like “Mommy.” The concerned parents took her to a doctor. After careful examination, the doctors diagnosed (诊断) her as having autism. At the time, the family was given some extremely negative news. “My parents were told that I would be lucky to have friends or even hold a minimum wage job,” Haley said. Yet, by getting professional help, Haley was able to join regular school classes at four. She did quite well at school, although with her poor social skills, it was hard for her to make friends. Eventually, Haley became so successful that she made history. After graduating from the University of Miami, she got hired by a law firm and became the first autistic lawyer in Florida. Being a lawyer wasn’t her first choice of career, though. Previous to going to law school, she studied psychology (心理学) and considered becoming a psychologist to help others with autism. However, Haley discovered she didn’t enjoy the science classes, so she decided that becoming a lawyer would fit her interests better. In addition to being a legal professional, Haley has also published books and has a talent for painting. Most definitely, Haley has far exceeded those original low expectations of her and proven the experts wrong. In short, she has become a role model for others with autism. 24. What can be inferred about autism according to paragraph 1? A. It affects people in different ways. B. It leads to the loss of speech function. C. It is a disorder that can be easily cured. D. It prevents people from leading successful lives. 25 What negative prediction did Haley’s parents receive from the doctor? A. Haley would never learn to speak. B. Haley would struggle with puzzles. C. Haley would fail to graduate from school. D. Haley might not have friends or hold a basic job. 26. Why did Haley choose to become a lawyer instead of a psychologist? A. She thought psychology too difficult to learn. B. She hoped to become the first autistic lawyer. C. She wanted to help people with autism as a lawyer. D. She realized entering the field of law better suited her interests. 27. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Career in Law: The Journey of Haley Moss. B. Overcoming Challenges: The Story of Autism. C. Understanding Autism: Causes and Challenges. D. Haley Moss: Overcoming Autism and Making History. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了自闭症患者Haley Moss克服挑战、创造历史的故事。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Life can be challenging, particularly for people with autism (自闭症). It is a disorder that does not have one single cause and can take many forms. Most often, it creates difficulty in communicating and interacting with others. Severe autism may leave someone unable to speak entirely or function without assistance.(生活可能是充满挑战的，特别是对于自闭症患者。它是一种没有单一原因的疾病，可以表现为多种形式。在大多数情况下，它会造成与他人沟通和互动的困难。严重的自闭症可能会让一个人完全无法说话或无法在没有帮助的情况下生活。)”可推知，自闭症对人的影响是不同的，有的人可能无法说话，有的人可能只是社交困难，即它对不同的人有着不同的影响。故选A项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“‘My parents were told that I would be lucky to have friends or even hold a minimum wage job,’ Haley said.(Haley说：‘我父母被告知，我能有朋友或甚至能做一份最低工资的工作就算幸运了。’)”可知，Haley的父母从医生那里得到的负面预测是Haley可能交不到朋友或不能从事基本的工作。故选D项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, Haley discovered she didn’t enjoy the science classes, so she decided that becoming a lawyer would fit her interests better.(然而，Haley发现她不喜欢科学课，所以她决定成为一名律师更符合她的兴趣。)”可知，Haley选择成为一名律师而不是心理学家是因为她意识到进入法律领域更符合她的兴趣。故选D项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第三段中的“Eventually, Haley became so successful that she made history. After graduating from the University of Miami, she got hired by a law firm and became the first autistic lawyer in Florida.(最终，Haley取得了如此巨大的成功，创造了历史。从迈阿密大学毕业后，她被一家律师事务所录用，成为佛罗里达州第一位自闭症律师。)”可知，本文主要讲述了Haley Moss克服自闭症，创造历史的故事。故D选项“Haley Moss: Overcoming Autism and Making History(Haley Moss：克服自闭症，创造历史)”最符合文章标题。故选D项。 C Concrete (混凝土) is the world’s most used material after water. Because it already surrounds us in the built environment, researchers have been exploring the idea of using concrete to store electricity — turning buildings into giant batteries. The idea has been gaining ground as we have come to increasingly rely on renewable energy from the wind and sun: rechargeable batteries are necessary when the wind dies down or darkness falls. Experimental concrete batteries have only managed to hold a small part of what a traditional battery does. But one team now reports that it has developed a rechargeable original model that could represent a more than 10 times increase in stored charge, compared with earlier attempts. A live-in concrete battery might sound unlikely. Still, “you can make a battery out of a potato,” notes Aimee Bynne. In a future where sustainability is key, she likes the idea of buildings that avoid waste by providing shelter and powering electronics. According to Emma, the study co-author, although the new design stores more than 10 times as much power as earlier attempts: 200 square meters of it “can provide about 8 percent of the daily electricity consumption of a typical U. S. home”, this is not enough to compete with today’s rechargeable devices. “We’re getting milliamps out of concrete batteries — we’re not getting amps (安培),” Bynne, a structural engineer at Technological University Dublin, says, “we’re getting hours rather than days of charge.” But she adds that “concrete batteries are completely in their childhood, compared to other battery designs”. The earliest batteries were large and heavy. Researchers experimented with new materials and designs for more than a century to develop today’s small devices. Bynne suggests concrete-based energy storage could undergo a similar evolution. “The whole idea is that we’re looking far into the future,” she says, “we’re playing the long game with it.” 28. Why have researchers been exploring the use of concrete? A. Because concrete is far lighter. B. Because concrete is widely present. C. Because concrete is much cheaper. D. Because concrete can be easily transported. 29. What does Bynne want to show by mentioning the potato? A. Only food-related materials can be made into batteries. B. Potato batteries are more efficient than concrete batteries. C. Potatoes are the most commonly-used material for batteries. D. Materials that seem ordinary can be used for battery-making. 30. What is the property of the new concrete battery? A. It can power a U. S. home for days. B. It produces large amps of electricity. C. It stores over 10 times more charge than before. D. It is as efficient as traditional batteries. 31. What does Bynne think of concrete batteries? A. They need more advancement. B. They require simple technology. C. They can beat modern batteries. D. They have a narrow application. 【答案】28. B 29. D 30. C 31. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究人员探索利用混凝土储存电能的研究进展及前景。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Because it already surrounds us in the built environment, researchers have been exploring the idea of using concrete to store electricity — turning buildings into giant batteries.(因为混凝土已经在我们的建筑环境中随处可见，研究人员一直在探索利用混凝土储存电能的想法——将建筑物变成巨大的电池。)”可知，研究人员探索利用混凝土是因为混凝土在我们的建筑环境中随处可见，即混凝土广泛存在。故选B。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“A live-in concrete battery might sound unlikely. Still, “you can make a battery out of a potato,” notes Aimee Bynne.(一个可以居住的混凝土电池听起来不太可能。不过，“你可以用土豆做一个电池，”Aimee Bynne指出。)”可知，Bynne提到土豆电池作类比是为了说明看似普通的材料也可以用来制造电池。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“But one team now reports that it has developed a rechargeable original model that could represent a more than 10 times increase in stored charge, compared with earlier attempts.(但现在有一个团队报告称，他们已经开发出一种可充电的原始模型，与之前的尝试相比，这种模型可以增加超过10倍的存储电量。)”可知，新型混凝土电池的存储电量比之前增加了10倍以上。故选C。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“But she adds that “concrete batteries are completely in their childhood, compared to other battery designs”.(但她补充说，“与其他电池设计相比，混凝土电池还完全处于起步阶段。”)”可知，Bynne认为混凝土电池还需要更多的发展。故选A。 D Vacations are being redefined to improve your wellness experiences. The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed. When away, vacationers traditionally like to make use of every second of the day. They rush from site to site, eat meals at all hours of the day, and treat themselves at night. And when finally returning to their hotel rooms at night, they find it hard to sleep. Besides, downtown hotels may be centrally located, with noisy traffic and flashing city lights pervading (弥漫). Also, many people simply do not sleep well when away from their own beds. All these factors lead to pain, allergies and hormonal issues, making sleep challenging. “Sleep tourism” addresses these issues and more. Special sleep suites have been thoughtfully designed to offer quiet and darkness. Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns. Sleep suites are a huge advance in tourism and are now found in wellness hotels around the world. Each offers different ways of inducing sleep, according to Condé Nast Traveler. Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip! The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep! Now you can tour around by day and have sweet dreams by night. 32. According to the text, what is the new trend in vacationing? A. Partying all night. B. Eating at special hours. C. Sleeping well on holiday. D. Rushing from site to site. 33. How do sleep suites improve the sleep experience for guests? A. By serving a wide variety of food. B. By introducing mattresses with AI technology. C. By offering in-room entertainment systems. D. By ensuring complete darkness in the rooms. 34. The underlined word “inducing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”. A. promoting. B. preventing. C. causing. D. affecting. 35. What can we infer about the future of hotels from the passage? A. All hotels will have artificial intelligence mattresses. B. Traditional hotels will disappear because of “sleep tourism”. C More hotels will focus on providing better sleep experiences. D. Downtown hotels will move to quieter areas to avoid traffic noise. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为解决游客在旅游过程出现睡眠问题的一种旅游形式——睡眠旅游。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed.(新的流行词是“睡眠旅游”，其重点是确保你在晚上休息得很好，假期结束后感觉神清气爽。)”可知，度假的新趋势是“度假时睡好”。故选C。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns.(酒店正在投资人工智能床垫，它可以调节温度，并有缓冲来缓解压力点。这些床垫还可以跟踪睡眠统计数据，并为度假者提供睡眠模式的反馈。)”可知，人工智能床垫能调节温度、缓解压力点、追踪睡眠数据并反馈，直接提升睡眠体验；由此可知，睡眠套房通过引入人工智能床垫来改善客人睡眠。故选B。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词下文“Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip!(许多套房还提供一系列舒缓的茶饮以及定制的床铺。无论您选择哪种睡眠套房，其目的都是让您能睡个好觉，从而改善您的健康和生活质量。)”可知，套房所提供的舒缓的茶饮以及定制的床铺都是促进睡眠的方法，“Each offers different ways of inducing sleep(每间套房都提供了不同的inducing睡眠方式。)”中的inducing表示“促进”，与promoting同义。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。文章最后一段“The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep!(希望更多的酒店适应这种健康趋势，回归酒店房间的最初目的，那就是睡觉！)”明确呼吁希望更多酒店适应睡眠旅游这一健康趋势，回归酒店房间的初衷——提供睡眠；由此可推测，未来更多酒店会专注于提供更好的睡眠体验。故选C。 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Helping out at a Food Center During Holidays The holiday season is the perfect time to volunteer with your family and give back to the community.

(即使假期的繁忙让你没有时间做志愿者，仍然有办法有所作为)”，空处应是说明另一种帮助的方式。F选项“任何捐赠都能帮助饥饿的家庭新年伊始获得充足的食物”符合语境，讲的是捐赠这种形式也能帮到有需要的人。故选F。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 There’s an autumn day that I recall (回想) every time I find myself caught up in the rush of life.

First, I created simple handouts with step-by-step illustrations for tasks like video-calling family and ordering food online. During the sessions, I noticed many struggled with touchscreens, so I used real-life examples to explain functions. For instance, when teaching photo sharing, I showed them how to send pictures of their grandchildren. Though some took longer to grasp the concepts, their excitement when finally making a video call or ordering successfully made every effort worthwhile. This experience taught me that patience is key in communication. It also made me realize that in our digital age, helping the elderly adapt isn’t just a favor — it’s a way to connect generations and spread warmth. The smiles on their faces were the best reward I could ask for. Thank you! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文，要求考生撰写一篇课前演讲稿向全班同学分享暑期社会实践经历。其内容包括：实践具体内容和个人感悟。 【详解】1.词汇积累 加入：join→take part in 首先：first→to begin with 例如：for instance →for example 帮助：help→aid 2.句式拓展 简单句变复合句 原句：This summer, I joined a volunteer program at a community center to teach senior citizens smartphone skills. 拓展句：This summer, I joined a volunteer program at a community center where I taught senior citizens smartphone skills. 【点睛】【高分句型1】For instance, when teaching photo sharing, I showed them how to send pictures of their grandchildren. （运用了状语从句的省略） 【高分句型2】This experience taught me that patience is key in communication. （运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第二节（满分25分) 67. 阅读下面短文，根据所给情节进行续写，使之构成一个完整的故事。 It was an unusual exam that later shaped my whole life. To prepare for it, I abandoned almost all my after-school activities. For three months, I studied from six in the morning until well into the night every day. Still, however hard I tried, a constant feeling of anxiety never went away, and it followed me into the exam room. It was the first challenge that knocked me down. It was a French exam, and my seat number was 30, which meant I would be the last to receive the paper. The second challenge greeted me: I wasn’t very good at French and read more slowly than most other students, so I worried I wouldn’t have enough time to preview all the listening comprehension questions before the test began. Although I had been told there would be two teachers, my heart still skipped a beat when I saw them on exam day. The female teacher seemed very cautious as she handed out the answer sheets. She carefully compared each student’s face with the photo on the examinee certificate, moving slowly and adding to my anxiety. While she continued to hand out the sheets, the male teacher stood in front of the platform with great seriousness in his eyes. When I tried to reach for my water to calm myself, the worst thing happened. It is my habit to bring a bottle of water to an exam. However, on that particular day, I left home in a hurry and forgot it. Without water, my throat felt burning and my whole body dehydrated (脱水的). I was suffering from this physical discomfort, and the anxious, upset feeling only worsened as the sheets were handed out so unhurriedly. What was only a few minutes felt like a century. Glancing around, I saw water bottles on the platform. The pain — both physical and mental — became unbearable when the teachers finished their processes and were about to return to the front of the classroom. 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做答。 Finally, I picked up all my courage and raised my hand. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In an instant, my mind was set to rest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Finally, I picked up all my courage and raised my hand. “Is anything wrong?” The male teacher’s sweeping gaze met mine, and his voice cracked like thunder in the silent classroom. I lowered my head instantly under the other students’ stare. The female teacher turned around, but I instinctively shrank even lower. At last, I managed to stammer out the words that had been circling in my mind for what felt like centuries. “Could I have a bottle of water?” I heard her warm voice with a hint of laughter. “Of course,” The male teacher stepped down with the bottle, and what surprised me more was that he even twisted off the cap for me. “Does anyone need any help?” he asked, looking around. “We’re here for you.” In an instant, my mind was set to rest. With the bottle in hand, I took a deep breath and began to skim the listening-comprehension questions. At first, I was still nervous and kept taking small sips of water, which miraculous y brought relief. An unexplainable force urged me to lift my head; the moment I saw the teachers, I heard a voice inside me say, “They’re doing their job, and I should do mine.” I turned back to my paper, and my uneasiness gradually ebbed away. When the bell finally announced the end of the exam, I watched the two figures methodically collecting the papers, and the anxiety inside me was replaced by pure warmth and gratitude. Since then, I have known the extraordinary power of an ordinary bottle of water. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“一瓶水”为线索展开，讲述了作者在一场特殊的法语考试中，因口渴难耐且焦虑不安，最终鼓起勇气向老师要水，老师给予帮助后，作者心态转变，顺利完成考试，并从中体会到温暖与力量的故事。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“最后，我鼓起所有的勇气，举起了手”可知，第一段可描写作者举手向老师求助要水，以及老师回应并提供帮助的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“刹那间，我的头脑平静下来”可知，第二段可描写作者拿到水后心态放松，安心投入考试，以及考试结束后内心的感受和收获。 2. 续写线索：焦虑备考——考试遇挫——鼓起勇气求助——老师给予水和关怀——心态放松投入考试——考试结束心怀感激 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 举起：raise/ lift/ put up ② 完成：finish/ complete/ accomplish ③ 鼓起勇气：pick up my courage/ pluck up my courage/ summon up my courage 情绪类 ① 焦虑：anxious/ upset/ nervous/ tense ② 感激：gratitude / thanks/ appreciation 【点睛】【高分句型1】“Is anything wrong?” The male teacher’s sweeping gaze met mine, and his voice cracked like thunder in the silent classroom. (运用了直接引语和比喻的修辞手法) 【高分句型2】When the bell finally announced the end of the exam, I watched the two figures methodically collecting the papers, and the anxiety inside me was replaced by pure warmth and gratitude.

Founded in 2009 by MIT’s Space Systems Laboratory and astronaut Greg Chamitoff, Zero Robotics is a free-of-charge coding (编程) competition. Students get the extraordinary chance to program SPHERES satellites aboard the ISS. Teams start by taking on annual challenges in virtual simulations. The best teams then enter a thrilling live final on the ISS, with an astronaut in charge of the action. Tournament tracks at a Glance Tournament Grades/Age Duration Team Size Key Feature High School 9-12 (14-20 yrs) Sept-Dec 5-20 students Final on the ISS Middle School 5th-9th graders 5 weeks (Jun 24-Aug 2) 7-20 students Free training for beginners How to Participate Qualification (资格): High school students (not in college yet) from the US, Russia, ESA member states, and Australia can join the high school tournament. Middle school students are qualified for the middle school summer program. Team Setup: Each team must have a mentor, usually a teacher or staff member. For high school, typically one team per school (exception with permission), and for middle school, teams register before the set deadline. All students need to create their own accounts on the Zero Robotics platform. Participants can gain hands-on coding experience with real NASA satellites. It helps in developing teamwork skills, as teams cooperate closely. Exposure to space technology can stir up interest in STEM careers. Moreover, it’s a great addition to college applications, showing your commitment and skills in STEM fields. And the excitement of seeing your code run in the microgravity of the ISS is truly unmatched. 21. What is the difference between the minimum team sizes of the two tournaments? A. 2. B. 5. C. 7. D. 12. 22. Who is qualified for the High School Tournament? A. College students under 20. B. Middle schoolers in Russia. C. 9-12th graders from ESA states. D. Grade 8 students from Australia. 23. How does the competition benefit the participants? A. It ensures their university admission. B. It increases their STEM career interest. C. It helps them get NASA jobs quickly. D. It improves their coding skills significantly. B Life can be challenging, particularly for people with autism (自闭症). It is a disorder that does not have one single cause and can take many forms. Most often, it creates difficulty in communicating and interacting with others. Severe autism may leave someone unable to speak entirely or function without assistance. But many people with autism have led rewarding or even outstanding lives. One such person is Haley Moss. As a three-year-old, Haley was able to do difficult tasks such as finishing large puzzles. However, she couldn’t say simple words like “Mommy.” The concerned parents took her to a doctor. After careful examination, the doctors diagnosed (诊断) her as having autism. At the time, the family was given some extremely negative news. “My parents were told that I would be lucky to have friends or even hold a minimum wage job,” Haley said. Yet, by getting professional help, Haley was able to join regular school classes at four. She did quite well at school, although with her poor social skills, it was hard for her to make friends. Eventually, Haley became so successful that she made history. After graduating from the University of Miami, she got hired by a law firm and became the first autistic lawyer in Florida. Being a lawyer wasn’t her first choice of career, though. Previous to going to law school, she studied psychology (心理学) and considered becoming a psychologist to help others with autism. However, Haley discovered she didn’t enjoy the science classes, so she decided that becoming a lawyer would fit her interests better. In addition to being a legal professional, Haley has also published books and has a talent for painting. Most definitely, Haley has far exceeded those original low expectations of her and proven the experts wrong. In short, she has become a role model for others with autism. 24. What can be inferred about autism according to paragraph 1? A. It affects people in different ways. B. It leads to the loss of speech function. C. It is a disorder that can be easily cured. D. It prevents people from leading successful lives. 25. What negative prediction did Haley’s parents receive from the doctor? A. Haley would never learn to speak. B. Haley would struggle with puzzles. C. Haley would fail to graduate from school. D. Haley might not have friends or hold a basic job. 26. Why did Haley choose to become a lawyer instead of a psychologist? A. She thought psychology too difficult to learn. B. She hoped to become the first autistic lawyer. C. She wanted to help people with autism as a lawyer. D. She realized entering the field of law better suited her interests. 27. Which can be a suitable title for the text? A. A Career in Law: The Journey of Haley Moss. B. Overcoming Challenges: The Story of Autism. C. Understanding Autism: Causes and Challenges. D. Haley Moss: Overcoming Autism and Making History. C Concrete (混凝土) is the world’s most used material after water. Because it already surrounds us in the built environment, researchers have been exploring the idea of using concrete to store electricity — turning buildings into giant batteries. The idea has been gaining ground as we have come to increasingly rely on renewable energy from the wind and sun: rechargeable batteries are necessary when the wind dies down or darkness falls. Experimental concrete batteries have only managed to hold a small part of what a traditional battery does. But one team now reports that it has developed a rechargeable original model that could represent a more than 10 times increase in stored charge, compared with earlier attempts. A live-in concrete battery might sound unlikely. Still, “you can make a battery out of a potato,” notes Aimee Bynne. In a future where sustainability is key, she likes the idea of buildings that avoid waste by providing shelter and powering electronics. According to Emma, the study co-author, although the new design stores more than 10 times as much power as earlier attempts: 200 square meters of it “can provide about 8 percent of the daily electricity consumption of a typical U. S. home”, this is not enough to compete with today’s rechargeable devices. “We’re getting milliamps out of concrete batteries — we’re not getting amps (安培),” Bynne, a structural engineer at Technological University Dublin, says, “we’re getting hours rather than days of charge.” But she adds that “concrete batteries are completely in their childhood, compared to other battery designs”. The earliest batteries were large and heavy. Researchers experimented with new materials and designs for more than a century to develop today’s small devices. Bynne suggests concrete-based energy storage could undergo a similar evolution. “The whole idea is that we’re looking far into the future,” she says, “we’re playing the long game with it.” 28. Why have researchers been exploring the use of concrete? A. Because concrete is far lighter. B. Because concrete is widely present. C. Because concrete is much cheaper. D. Because concrete can be easily transported. 29. What does Bynne want to show by mentioning the potato? A. Only food-related materials can be made into batteries. B. Potato batteries are more efficient than concrete batteries. C. Potatoes are the most commonly-used material for batteries. D. Materials that seem ordinary can be used for battery-making. 30. What is the property of the new concrete battery? A. It can power a U. S. home for days. B. It produces large amps of electricity. C. It stores over 10 times more charge than before. D. It is as efficient as traditional batteries. 31 What does Bynne think of concrete batteries? A. They need more advancement. B. They require simple technology. C. They can beat modern batteries. D. They have a narrow application. D Vacations are being redefined to improve your wellness experiences. The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed. When away, vacationers traditionally like to make use of every second of the day. They rush from site to site, eat meals at all hours of the day, and treat themselves at night. And when finally returning to their hotel rooms at night, they find it hard to sleep. Besides, downtown hotels may be centrally located, with noisy traffic and flashing city lights pervading (弥漫). Also, many people simply do not sleep well when away from their own beds. All these factors lead to pain, allergies and hormonal issues, making sleep challenging. “Sleep tourism” addresses these issues and more. Special sleep suites have been thoughtfully designed to offer quiet and darkness. Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns. Sleep suites are a huge advance in tourism and are now found in wellness hotels around the world. Each offers different ways of inducing sleep, according to Condé Nast Traveler. Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip! The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep! Now you can tour around by day and have sweet dreams by night. 32. According to the text, what is the new trend in vacationing? A. Partying all night. B. Eating at special hours. C. Sleeping well on holiday. D. Rushing from site to site. 33. How do sleep suites improve the sleep experience for guests? A. By serving a wide variety of food. B. By introducing mattresses with AI technology. C. By offering in-room entertainment systems. D. By ensuring complete darkness in the rooms. 34. The underlined word “inducing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”. A. promoting. B. preventing. C. causing. D. affecting. 35. What can we infer about the future of hotels from the passage? A. All hotels will have artificial intelligence mattresses. B. Traditional hotels will disappear because of “sleep tourism”. C. More hotels will focus on providing better sleep experiences. D. Downtown hotels will move to quieter areas to avoid traffic noise. 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可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Helping out at a Food Center During Holidays The holiday season is the perfect time to volunteer with your family and give back to the community.

To prepare for it, I abandoned almost all my after-school activities. For three months, I studied from six in the morning until well into the night every day. Still, however hard I tried, a constant feeling of anxiety never went away, and it followed me into the exam room. It was the first challenge that knocked me down. It was a French exam, and my seat number was 30, which meant I would be the last to receive the paper. The second challenge greeted me: I wasn’t very good at French and read more slowly than most other students, so I worried I wouldn’t have enough time to preview all the listening comprehension questions before the test began. Although I had been told there would be two teachers my heart still skipped a beat when I saw them on exam day. The female teacher seemed very cautious as she handed out the answer sheets. She carefully compared each student’s face with the photo on the examinee certificate, moving slowly and adding to my anxiety. While she continued to hand out the sheets, the male teacher stood in front of the platform with great seriousness in his eyes. When I tried to reach for my water to calm myself, the worst thing happened. It is my habit to bring a bottle of water to an exam. However, on that particular day, I left home in a hurry and forgot it. Without water, my throat felt burning and my whole body dehydrated (脱水的). I was suffering from this physical discomfort, and the anxious, upset feeling only worsened as the sheets were handed out so unhurriedly. What was only a few minutes felt like a century. Glancing around, I saw water bottles on the platform. The pain — both physical and mental — became unbearable when the teachers finished their processes and were about to return to the front of the classroom. 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做答。 Finally, I picked up all my courage and raised my hand. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ In an instant, my mind was set to rest. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
