I will cultivate good character and practical skills to prepare for contributing to society. I hope all my fellow students recognize this responsibility. Let's strive together to improve ourselves.

Thank you for your attention. 短文续写: Paragraph 1： As he dove into the water, he kicked his legs and stretched his arms as far as he could. So dynamic was he that he swam swifter than ever. With his arm flapping, he cut through the water smoothly like a flying fish. Overwhelmed by passion and confidence, he swam like a gust of wind and faster than usual. And the last 200 meters witnessed the boy struggling, his teeth clenched and his eyes fixed on the finish line. Eventually, with heart beating furiously, he reached the destination, thunderous applause lingered around the pool. Paragraph 2： His jaw dropped as he realized he had beaten his own best time, and everyone else too. No sooner had he climbed out of the pool than his parents rushed to him with a warm hug. Meanwhile, thunderous applause from audience echoed the gym. The brimful tears blurred his vision and rolled down his cheek. At that moment, he did fully realize the importance of healthy body and regarded it as a new lucky charm. Mike did exercises regularly to keep fit. Just as the saying goes, “Fall into the pit, a gain you wit.” and he knew that it was never ice-cream that brought the magic. His own persistence and parents’ support is the lucky charm. 听力原文 Text1询问火车发车时间 W: Excuse me, could you tell me when the next train to New York leaves?

Exercise is not only good for the body, but also plays a crucial role in enhancing mood and reducing feelings of anxiety and depression. [18] In fact, studies show that people who engage in at least half an hour of moderate exercise most days report feeling happier and more relaxed. Other research suggests that even shorter periods of intense exercise or longer sessions of light activity can produce similar benefits. Activities like walking, cycling, and swimming can help the brain release chemicals that make people feel good. These natural substances reduce stress and create a sense of well-being.[19] Furthermore, exercise can improve sleep quality, which is important for overall mental health. [20] Researchers conducted a study with 300 participants over a six-month period. Half of the group committed to a regular exercise routine, while the other half continued with their usual lifestyle. The findings showed that those who exercised experienced a 40% reduction in symptoms of anxiety and depression compared to those who didn't. So, if you're feeling low or stressed, consider getting active as a simple yet effective way to improve your mood! 答案详解： A篇 答案：21--23 ABA 第21题答案：A 解析：这是一道需要简单推理的题。问题关键词是“大型商务活动或会议”。 A (Crowne Plaza) 明确提到能接待500人的团体，并且专门提到“visiting on business”，其庞大的房间数（259间）和团体接待能力强烈暗示其具备承接大型商务活动的基础设施。 B (Graduate Seattle) 最多容纳315人，规模中等。 C(Country Inn) 仅有102间房，容量有限。 D (Renaissance Seattle Hotel) 容量近300人，虽在市中心，但文中未强调其大型活动接待能力。 需要通过整合“团体规模”和“商务”这两个信息点来推断出C为最佳答案。 第22题答案：B 解析：要解答这道题，我们需要仔细对比Graduate Seattle和Country Inn描述中的细节。 选项A: They both highlight free local calls. (它们都强调免费本地通话。) Country Inn的描述中明确提到了“phones with free local calls”。Graduate Seattle的描述中完全没有提及电话服务。因此，该选项不正确。 选项B: They both offer cable television. (它们都提供有线电视。)Country Inn的描述中明确提到：“...cable programming is available for your entertainment.” Graduate Seattle的描述中也明确提到：“32-inch LCD televisions with cable programming provide entertainment.”因此，提供有线电视是两者的一个明确共同点。 选项C: They both have an on-site restaurant. (它们都有内部餐厅。) Graduate Seattle的描述中明确提到了“Enjoy a meal at a restaurant or in a cafe.” Country Inn的描述中只提到了房间内的便利设施，并未提及任何餐厅或咖啡厅。因此，该选项不正确。 选项D: They both provide complimentary coffee makers. (它们都提供免费的咖啡机。) Country Inn的描述中提到了“coffee makers”。Graduate Seattle的描述中完全没有提及咖啡机。因此，该选项不正确。 综上，唯一在两个酒店描述中都被明确提及的共同设施是有线电视（cable television/programming），所以正确答案是B。 第23题答案：A 解析：这是一道细节查找题，但关键词“recent room upgrades”是原文“latest renovations”的同义替换。 B, C, D选项的描述都是对现有设施的陈述，没有提及“近期”的更新。 A(Renaissance Seattle Hotel) 的描述中直接呼吁客人“Come and see our latest renovations—flat screen TVs in all rooms, new headboards, and more.”，这明确强调了其最近的设施改进。 此题难度在于识别“latest renovations”与“recent room upgrades”之间的对应关系。 B篇 答案：24--27 DCBD 第24题D： 从Paragraph 3 倒数第2行可以看出，作者可以在害怕或有重要事情宣布的时候随时叫醒她的父母，也就是说她可以随时在有需要的时候寻求父母的帮助，满足她的各种需求，故正确答案为D。 第25题C： 从Paragraph 2 的最后一句话可以看出，my first bedroom is empty now.故A 选项错误。从Paragraph 3 的第三行可以看出，If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents’ room. 故B 选项错误。从Paragraph 4的第一句话可以看出，I’m lucky because I know my first home still exists.说明大多数人的第一所房子都已经不复存在，故D 选项错误。而从Paragraph 4可以看出，作者在Los Angles 的家仍然幸存，故正确答案为C。 第26题B：从最后一段可以看出，每当作者感到迷失时，她就会回到家里寻找归属感（belongings），还会特意在晚上把窗户打开，为的就是听听妈妈呵斥自己的声音。这一切都在告诉她，“I’m home”（文中的最后一句）。故正确答案为B。 第27题D：文章通过描述家里各个房间的摆设和回忆，表达了作者对家的深深依恋，特别是最后一段更加突出了“家”对作者的重要性，这里是她最佳的避风港湾，故正确答案为D。 C篇 答案： 28-31 CBAB 第28题C：推理判断题。根据第一段"Have you ever spent half an hour searching the Internet which, as you find out afterwards, lasted three hours, or opened a book shortly after breakfast and a little while later noticed that the room was getting darker（你是否曾经花了半个小时在网上搜索, 结果发现持续了三个小时；或者你是否曾在早餐后不久打开一本书, 不一会儿就发现房间变暗了？ ）以及第二段中"Most people can remember experiencing such a state. Your mind wasn't wandering；you were totally focused and concentrated on that activity, to such an extent that you were not even aware of yourself. Psychologists call these fully absorbing experiences flow states, which were discovered and named by a world﹣famous psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. （大多数人都记得经历过这种状态。你没有走神；你完全专注于这个活动, 以至于你甚至没有意识到你自己。心理学家称这些完全吸收的体验为心流状态, 这是由世界著名心理学家米哈里契克森米哈里发现并命名的）"可推知, 第一段的目的是介绍文章关于"心流状态"的文章主题。故选C。 第29题B：.词义猜测题。根据第三段中" The state of flow happens under very specific conditions﹣when we encounter a challenge that is testing for our skills, and yet our skills and capacities are such that it is just about possible to meet this challenge. So both the challenge and the skills are at high levels, stretching us almost to the limit.（心流的状态发生在非常特定的条件下一当我们遇到一个考验我们技能的挑战时, 而我们的技能和能力刚好可以应对这个挑战。所以挑战和技能都是高水平的, 几乎把我们拉伸到极限）"可推知, 四个选项中只有"下棋"可以考验我们的技能, 而我们的能力也可以应对这个挑战, 能让我们可以进入"心流状态"。A. Adopting a dog领养一只狗；B. Playing chess下棋；C . Watching TV看电视；D. Visiting nursing homes 探望养老院，故选B。 第30题：A.推理判断题。根据第三段中"If challenges exceed skills, one can become anxious. If skills exceed challenges, we usually become bored.（如果挑战超过了技能, 人就会变得焦虑。如果技能超过了挑战, 我们通常会感到无聊）"可推知, 天才在普通学校经常感到无聊。故选A。 第31题B：.推理判断题。根据最后一段中"Mihaly himself is also very much aware of the potential negative impact of the flow. One philosopher once describes his own experience of flow." When I get totally involved in the conversation, I am not aware of myself, the world around or the passage of time. Sometimes. I may become addictive to that existence, unwilling to cope with other daily routines of life, like forgetting dinner, and saying goodbye to my children."（米哈里本人也非常清楚流的潜在负面影响。一位哲学家曾描述过他自己的心流体验: "当我完全投入到对话中, 我不会意识到自己、周围的世界或时间的流逝。有时候, 我可能会对这种存在上瘾, 不愿意处理其他日常生活的常规, 比如忘记吃饭, 和孩子们说再见。"）可推知, 作者引用哲学家的话是为了展示"心流状态的缺点"。故选A。 D篇 答案： 32-35 ACDC 这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了语音助手会在用户不知情的情况下记录私人对话，从而导致用户隐私被收集和泄露。很多用户对语音助手的这种“威胁隐私”的行为存在担忧，而有关人士认为向用户解释私人数据是如何被处理的是保护用户隐私的方式；也有建议说人们可以改变设置，限制设备在家中的活跃频率，并在购买设备前进行一些调查。 第32题A：细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“Many people have long feared that tech companies are listening and collecting data from private conversations, reported Forbes. Using this data, third party companies could then paint an accurate picture of users’ habits and preferences in order to serve them more targeted advertisements, or even worse, sell this private data. (据《福布斯》报道，很多人一直担心科技公司会监听私人谈话并收集数据。利用这些数据，第三方公司可以准确地描绘出用户的习惯和偏好，以便为他们提供更有针对性的广告，甚至更糟的是，出售这些私人数据。)”可知，对于使用语音助手，人们存在的担忧是私人信息会被收集和滥用。故选A项。 第33题C：词义猜测题。分析语境可知，“Apple’s Siri is not the only voice assistant(苹果的Siri并不是唯一的语音助手)”应是指后文举例提及的语音助手“Alexa”，根据后文“In 2018, Alexa, a voice assistant developed by US tech company Amazon, recorded a private conversation between a couple and sent it to a stranger without their permission.(2018年，美国科技公司亚马逊开发的语音助手Alexa在未经允许的情况下录下了一对夫妇的私人对话，并将其发送给了一个陌生人。)”的举例解释可知，语音助手Alexa在未经允许的情况下将私人对话转发给了其他人，这是错误，应该受到指责。由此可推知，划线短语“come under fire”应是“指责；批评”含义。故选C项。 第34题D：细节理解题。根据文章第六段“To deal with the issue, Blake Morgan, reporter for The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. ‘All companies need to have messaging ready to explain to customers what they do with private data,’ she wrote on The Atlantic.(《大西洋月刊》记者Blake Morgan认为，解决这个问题的答案是透明。她在《大西洋月刊》上写道：“所有公司都需要准备好信息，向用户解释他们如何处理私人数据。”)”可知，根据Blake Morgan的说法，向用户解释私人数据是如何被处理的是公司保护用户隐私的方式。故选D项。 第35题C：主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知，文章首段“However”句揭示了文章的核心话题，“However, we may be sacrificing our privacy to enjoy this convenience.(然而，我们可能会牺牲我们的隐私来享受这种便利。)”，即，文章主要讲述了以“语音助手有可能会使用户隐私被收集和泄露”这一话题展开了讨论。选项C“Voice assistant: a potential privacy threat(语音助手：潜在的隐私威胁)”贴合主题。故选C项。 7选5答案：36-40 CBFAD 本文主要讨论了在日常生活中，我们不要被太多的选择所困惑，避免分心，给自己确立目标，珍惜现在所拥有的，并且不要害怕失败，只有这样你才能提高自己。 36．C根据前边telling us how we can improve ourselves可知告诉我们如何提高自己，后边要说的是成长和成为一个更好的人的关键是清楚地知道你想要什么。故选C。 37．B根据后边Rather than stopping and reviewing my current circumstances, I knew that I had to remove these distractions.可知我必须消除这些干扰，而不是停下来审视我现在的处境，可知前边要说的是生活和例行公事突然变得让人分心，我发现每天都不认真处理，故选B。 38．F根据下一段第一句After you gain clarity about your current issues, it is now necessary to write milestones for yourself可知这一段主要在讨论你有必要确立目标树立里程碑，故选F。 39．A 根据后边It's human nature to overlook the things we currently have and to feel dissatisfied with them due to having obtained them可知忽视现在所拥有的东西是人的天性，故选A。 40．D根据前边It is often said that if you've never failed, you've never lived如果你从未失败过，你就永远不会活。故选D。 完形填空答案：41--45.

Crowne Plaza B Home to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia (怀旧). It’s fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You’ll realize what’s changed is you. Home is where we can remember pain, life, and some other experiences; We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here. If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It’s empty, but it’s where my earliest memories are. There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween-when I didn’t want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents’ room. It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime - waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning. I’m lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property (住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived, I grew and I learned. Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it’s where I’ll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings. I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom. But I don’t mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home. 24. Why does the author call her parents’ bed her “safe zone” (Paragraph 3)? A. It is her favorite place to play. B. Her parents always play together with her there. C. Her grandparents’ photos are lined on each side. D. Her needs can be satisfied there. 25. What can be learned from the passage? A. The old furniture is still in the author’s first bedroom. B. The author’s favorite room in her first home is the dining room. C. The author can still visit her first physical home in Los Angeles. D. Many people of the author's age can still find their first physical homes. 26. Sometimes when she feels lost, the author will _______. A. open the window at night B. try to bring back a sense of home C. lie down in bed to have a dream D. go to Los Angeles to visit her mom 27. What is the author’s purpose of writing this passage? A. To look back on her childhood. B. To describe the state of her family. C. To declare how much she loves her first house. D. To express how much she is attached to her home. C Have you ever spent half an hour searching the Internet, which, as you find out afterwards, lasted three hours, or opened a book shortly after breakfast and a little while later noticed that the room was getting darker？ Most people can remember experiencing such a state. Your mind wasn’t wandering, you were totally focused and concentrated on that activity, to such an extent that you were not even aware of yourself. Psychologists call these fully absorbing experiences flow states, which were discovered and named by a world-famous psychologist Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi. His celebrated book Flow: The Psychology of Happiness became an instant best-seller, making its way to the top self-help classics. The state of flow happens under very specific conditions when we encounter a challenge that is testing for our skills, and yet our skills and capacities are such that it is just about possible to meet this challenge. So both the challenge and the skills are at high levels, stretching us almost to the limit. If challenges exceed skills, one can become anxious. If skills exceed challenges, we usually become weary. Neither of these two cases result in flow. What is also interesting in flow is the almost total absence of emotions during the actual process. One seems to be almost beyond experiencing emotions, most likely because the awareness of self is not present. Mihaly himself is also very much aware of the potential negative impact of the flow. One philosopher once describes his own experience of flow. “When I get totally involved in the conversation, I am not aware of myself, the world around or the passage of time. Sometimes, I may become addictive to that existence, unwilling to cope with other daily routines of life, like forgetting dinner, and saying goodbye to my children.” 28. What is the purpose of Paragraph 1? A. To make an overall outline. B. To describe the scene. C. To introduce the topic. D. To clarify the definition 29. In which of the following experience can we enter “flow state”? A. Adopting a dog. B. Playing chess. C. Watching TV. D. Visiting nursing homes. 30. What can we infer from the third paragraph？ A. Genius at normal schools often gets bored. B. The state of flow is little conditional. C. Challenges at high levels push us to the limit. D. Skills play the most important part in flow. 31.Why does the writer quote the philosopher’s words？ A. To stress the value of self-awareness. B. To show the drawbacks of the flow. C. To underline the absence of emotions. D. To indicate the difficulty of enjoying the flow. D Many of you may have used Siri, a voice assistant of US tech company Apple. You only have to say “hey Siri” and it will answer to your command. However, we may be sacrificing our privacy to enjoy this convenience. According to a recent report by the Guardian, Siri can be accidentally triggered (触发) and start recording private conversations, such as discussions between doctors and patients. Some of these recordings are then given to workers outside the company to review. Apple claimed the data was used to help Siri improve, but users were not informed of this measure in the first place. Apple’s Siri is not the only voice assistant to come under fire. In 2018, Alexa, a voice assistant developed by US tech company Amazon, recorded a private conversation between a couple and sent it to a stranger without their permission. These issues deepened concerns that tech companies are threatening users’ rights of privacy. Many people have long feared that tech companies are listening and collecting data from private conversations, reported Forbes. Using this data, third party companies could then paint an accurate picture of users’ habits and preferences in order to serve them more targeted advertisements, or even worse, sell this private data. Despite this risk, the popularity of voice assistant seems to be unstoppable. According to a report by Ovum, a London-based research firm, there will be almost as many voice assistants on the planet as people by 2021. “In the near future, everything from your lighting to your air-conditioning to your refrigerator, your coffee maker, and even your toilet could be wired to a system controlled by voice,” commented The Atlantic. Colin Horgan wrote on the blog site Medium that he believed people’s daily lives will soon become a source of data. “The sounds of our homes, the symphony of life—laughing, crying, talking, shouting, sitting in silence—will no longer be considered memories, but data,” he wrote. To deal with the issue, Blake Morgan, reporter for The Atlantic, believed that the answer is transparency. “All companies need to have messaging ready to explain to customers what they do with private data,” she wrote on The Atlantic. Daniel Blair, CEO of a virtual reality startup in Canada, told CBC News that people can change settings and limit how often the device is active in your home, and do some research before buying a device. 32. Why are users worried about the use of the voice assistants? A. Their private data may be collected and abused. B. The assistants will turn their daily lives into data. C. Their houses will be controlled by voice assistants. D. The tech company didn’t tell the users how they work. 33. The underlined phrase in paragraph 3 can be replaced by ________. A. be on fire B.be praised C. be criticized D. be out of date 34. What should the companies do to protect the users’ privacy? A. Do some research on whether the users like the assistants. B. Change the settings and limit the use of the assistants. C. Remove the assistants from the users’ devices. D. Inform the users of how they deal with the data. 35. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage? A. Voice assistant: an efficient house-keeper B. Voice assistant: a private data defender C. Voice assistant: a potential privacy threat D. Voice assistant: a future fashion 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When living out our daily lives, we’re often filled with too many choices from different things around us, telling us how we can improve ourselves. 36 Too much choice is never ideal We’re often told that having more would lead to happiness when in actual face, the opposite occurs.

It was almost time to leave. He jumped into the car with his parents and headed off to the Olympic-sized pool for the big swim meet. When his race came up, Mike was confident. He was strong and swift. Mike climbed out of the pool, smiling. He had just won first place, making him the fastest boy in his age group. “Congratulations, son,” his father said. His mom gave him a hug, even though he was soaking wet. A week later, it was time for another swim meet. Like before, Mike decided to enjoy his favorite ice cream flavor. Mike remembered that the last time he had won a race, he also ate mint chocolate chip ice cream first. Maybe he’d win again. He’s taken first place again in his race. Mike was feeling pretty good. As it turned out, Mike decided to have some mint chocolate chip ice cream before every one of the next few swim meets. He began to think of it as his lucky charm. After several months of placing in the top positions of every race he swam, Mike was feeling unbeatable. And he wouldn’t admit it, but all that ice cream was adding a few pounds to his athletic swimmer’s build. It didn’t take long after that for Mike to start coming in second place – and then third – and then last place in his races. The lucky mint chocolate chip ice cream had lost its magic. On the day of his next swim meet, his mother sat down at the table with him. “Mike, we all love ice cream, but it’s not healthy for your body to eat so much of it. Maybe it’s time to quit the sweet treats for a while, especially before you go swimming.” Mike unwillingly agreed. He went to the swim meet, and didn’t perform well. His father offered to go running with him a few days a week to help him feel better and strengthen his muscles. The extra weight soon disappeared, and Mike found himself breathing easier at swim practices. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1: As he dove into the water, he kicked his legs and stretched his arms as far as he could.  ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: His jaw dropped as he realized he had beaten his own best time, and everyone else too. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第 1 页 共8 页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
