Wang Yan, a physician at Raffles Hospital Beijing with over 30 years of experience, noted that teenagers often receive mixed messages about body image. “Many believe that being thin means being healthy, but visceral fat (内脏脂肪)can still be present in those who appear slim,” she explained. Different from subcutaneous fat (皮下脂肪)which sits just beneath the skin, visceral fat surrounds internal organs and is more closely linked to long-term health risks. While body mass index (BMI)is a handy tool for assessing weight, BMI=weight (in kilograms)/height (in meters)2, Wang advised teenagers to be careful. “It’s best to use growth charts to understand BMI rather than adult rules,” she said, noting that temporary weight gain often balances out as height increases. BMI also has its limitations — for instance, a teenager with a normal BMI might still carry excess body fat. She recommended considering additional indicators, such as the body roundness index (BRI) for a fuller picture of health. BRI range for relatively healthy people: 4.5-5.5 Beyond numbers, Wang pointed out that poor stamina (耐力)during activities like running could signal potential weight-related issues. Still, she emphasized it’s not solely about weight — regular exercise improves stamina. 1. Which of the following are most probably the target readers of this text? A. Adults. B. Teenagers. C. Parents. D. Doctors. 2. Which of the following should we watch more to assess our healthiness? A. Visceral fat. B. Subcutaneous fat. C. Slimness. D. Weight. 3. Which of the following is more regarded as being healthy according to Wang Yan? A. BMI=22.5; BMI=6. B. BMI=26.4; BMI=5.6. C. 170cm, 58kg; BRI=4.9. D. 160cm, 68kg; BRI=4.6. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍维持健康体重的相关知识，包括体脂类型、BMI和BRI的参考意义等。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Wang Yan, a physician at Raffles Hospital Beijing with over 30 years of experience, noted that teenagers often receive mixed messages about body image.(北京莱佛士医院的王燕医生拥有30多年的从业经验，她指出青少年经常收到关于体型的各种矛盾信息)”以及“Wang advised teenagers to be careful.(王医生建议青少年要谨慎对待)”可知，文章多次围绕青少年的体重健康问题展开，目标读者最可能是青少年。故选B项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的““Many believe that being thin means being healthy, but visceral fat can still be present in those who appear slim,” she explained. Different from subcutaneous fat which sits just beneath the skin, visceral fat surrounds internal organs and is more closely linked to long-term health risks.(她解释道：“很多人认为瘦就意味着健康，但外表苗条的人体内可能依然存在内脏脂肪。”内脏脂肪与位于皮肤表层下的皮下脂肪不同，它包裹着内脏器官，并且与长期健康风险的关联更为紧密)”可知，内脏脂肪和健康风险联系更密切，因此我们更需要关注内脏脂肪来评估健康状况。故选A项。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“While body mass index (BMI) is a handy tool for assessing weight, BMI=weight (in kilograms) /height (in meters)2, Wang advised teenagers to be careful. (虽然身体质量指数（BMI）是评估体重的便捷工具，计算公式为BMI = 体重（千克）/ 身高（米）²），但王医生建议青少年对此要谨慎看待)”以及文中给出的“BRI range for relatively healthy people: 4.5 - 5.5(相对健康人群的身体圆度指数（BRI）参考范围：4.5 - 5.5)”可知，健康需结合BMI计算结果和BRI是否在合理范围判断。C选项中身高170cm、体重58kg，经计算BMI约为20.1（属于健康范围），且BRI=4.9在健康区间内。故选C项。 B When Adam Kovalcik flew to Ohio for the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), an international science competition, he did not expect to come home with the top prize. “I cannot describe this feeling,” Adam said after receiving the award in a lively ceremony. “I did not expect such a huge international competition to be won by someone from a small village in a small European country. So, it was just pure shock.” The 19-year-old from Slovakia had developed a new way to make an experimental anti-viral drug called galidesivir, which targets RNA viruses like COVID-19 and Ebola. “This could be a huge step to help prevent some of these RNA viruses,” said Chris RoDee, chair of the judging committee of the ISEF. Adam’s big innovation started with corn husks (玉米壳). Well, furfuryl alcohol (糠醇), which comes from corn husks and is relatively cheap compared to other starting points for making drugs. One by one, he added chemicals to furfuryl alcohol in the lab, building the molecule (分子)block by block, until he got a crucial sugar called aza-saccharide. It only took seven steps to get there. From there, it was only three more steps to get galidesivir. In comparison, current manufacturing requires 15 steps. “He was able to shortcut this entire process because he just went in through a different door,” RoDee said. Also, Adam’s process takes five days. The conventional manufacturing method, he said, takes nine. Based on early computer calculations, he thinks his new version of the drug could be five times as effective as the current galidesivir against COVID-19. The young man’s ambitions don’t end with advancing drug manufacturing, though. He said he also wants to use his chemistry skills to start a company that manufactures eco-friendly perfumes (香水)from corn. “From the first time I stepped foot into a lab, I knew that I wanted to do something,” he said. 4. How did Adam feel when he won the top prize? A. Awkward. B. Surprised. C. Dismissive. D. Grateful. 5. Which of the following is the major advantage of Adam’s new method? A. Fewer production steps. B. Eco-friendly way of production. C. Lower requirements for chemistry skills. D. Effectiveness in curing viruses of different types. 6. What can we know about Adam from the article? A. He likes taking part in competitions. B. He complains about living in a small countryside. C. He tries new methods in order to avoid repetitive work. D. He wants to contribute to the society with his knowledge. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. From winning to winning: A Competition Story B. Corn Husks: The Best Solution to Viruses C. From Corn to Cure: A Teen’s Breakthrough D. Galidesivir: A Unique Cure for RNA Viruses 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要介绍斯洛伐克青年Adam研发抗病毒药物新方法获大奖及后续抱负。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“I did not expect such a huge international competition to be won by someone from a small village in a small European country. So, it was just pure shock.(我没想到一个来自欧洲小国小村庄的人能赢得如此大型的国际比赛。所以，我真的非常震惊)”可知，Adam获奖时感到十分惊讶。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“It only took seven steps to get there. From there, it was only three more steps to get galidesivir. In comparison, current manufacturing requires 15 steps.(得到它只需要7步。从那以后，再走三步就能得到galidesivir。相比之下，目前的生产需要15步)”可知，Adam新方法的主要优势是生产步骤更少。故选A项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“This could be a huge step to help prevent some of these RNA viruses.(这可能是帮助预防某些RNA病毒的一大步)”以及最后一段“The young man’s ambitions don’t end with advancing drug manufacturing, though. He said he also wants to use his chemistry skills to start a company that manufactures eco-friendly perfumes from corn. “From the first time I stepped foot into a lab, I knew that I wanted to do something,” he said.(不过，这位年轻人的抱负并不止于推动药品制造。他说，他还想利用自己的化学技能创办一家公司，用玉米生产环保型香水。“从我第一次踏进实验室开始，我就知道我想做点什么，”他说)”可知，Adam希望用自己的知识为社会做贡献。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Adam’s big innovation started with corn husks.(Adam的重大创新始于玉米壳)”以及第二段中的“The 19-year-old from Slovakia had developed a new way to make an experimental anti-viral drug called galidesivir(这位来自斯洛伐克的19岁青年研发了一种制造实验性抗病毒药物galidesivir的新方法)”可知，文章主要讲述青少年从玉米壳出发研发抗病毒药物的突破。因此C项“从玉米到治愈：一个青少年的突破”能概括全文内容，适合作为标题。故选C项。 C It’s not surprising that many people fear the dentist. Replacing a tooth often requires invasive surgery and implanting (种植)a titanium (钛)screw into a patient’s jawbone, then waiting months for that to strengthen into an artificial root, before attaching a crown or cap on top of it. But research groups around the world are working to find ways to implant and grow real biological teeth in a human jaw. That may be a way off, but at King’s College London, Ana Angelova Volponi has been experimenting with lab-grown teeth for almost two decades, and was part of a team that in 2013 grew a tooth from human and mouse cells. This year, she led a study that built upon that work and achieved a breakthrough in the material used to house the growing tooth in the lab, which better mimics the actual environment where biological teeth grow in the mouth. It’s a key step on the way to replacing the mouse cells with human cells and stimulating them to form a tooth. The idea of creating lab-grown tooth dates back to the 1980s, Volponi said, but the one that she and her colleagues created over a decade ago was the first that used adult human gingival (牙龈的)cells and combined them with tooth cells taken from a mouse embryo (胚胎). “It’s almost like a tripod (三脚架),” she said about the elements that contribute to growing a tooth in a lab setting. “The two types of cells are engaging in tooth making, in a sort of conversation, and then we have the environment where this happens.” Researchers still don’t know exactly how to replace the embryonic mouse cells with adult human cells, but if that puzzle is solved, Volponi envisions two possible ways to integrate lab-grown teeth into everyday dentistry: “We either grow a tooth up to a certain stage of development, and then put it into the tooth socket where a lost tooth was. Or, we fully grow the tooth first and then implant it surgically. It’s still too early to say which approach will be better.” 8. The author mentions “invasive surgery” in the first paragraph to ________. A. criticize outdated dental techniques B. compare different types of dental surgeries C. explain the complexity of traditional dental procedures D. highlight the need for alternative tooth replacement solutions 9. What does the underlined word “mimics” in the second paragraph most probably mean? A. Imitates. B. Creates. C. Displays. D. Improves. 10. The author implies that the use of adult human cells in lab-grown teeth ________. A. has already been achieved by Volponi’s team B. is the biggest remaining challenge in the research C. is less effective than using mouse embryonic cells D. will end the need for a supporting environment 11. What is mainly talked about in the passage? A. Challenges in traditional dental implants. B. Advances in lab-grown biological teeth research. C. Problems in implanting real biological teeth. D. Methods to replace mouse embryos with humans’. 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍传统种植牙手术的局限性，以及全球研究团队在实验室培育生物牙齿方面的研究进展与未来应用方向。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Replacing a tooth often requires invasive surgery and implanting (种植) a titanium (钛) screw into a patient’s jawbone, then waiting months for that to strengthen into an artificial root, before attaching a crown or cap on top of it. But research groups around the world are working to find ways to implant and grow real biological teeth in a human jaw..(种植牙通常需要进行侵入性手术：先将一枚钛金属螺钉植入患者的颌骨，等待数月待其稳固形成人工牙根后，再在顶端安装牙冠。但全球各地的研究团队正致力于寻找在人类颌骨中植入并培育真正生物牙齿的方法。)”可知，作者提及“侵入性手术”是为了突出传统种植牙技术的不足，进而强调寻找替代牙齿修复方案的必要性。故选D项。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“This year, she led a study that built upon that work and achieved a breakthrough in the material used to house the growing tooth in the lab, which better mimics the actual environment where biological teeth grow in the mouth.(今年，她主导了一项基于该研究的后续探索，在实验室培育牙齿的载体材料方面取得了突破性进展 —— 这种材料能更精准地mimics口腔内生物牙齿生长的真实环境。)”可知，实验室培育牙齿需要模拟真实口腔环境，因此“mimics”意为“模仿”。故选A项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Researchers still don’t know exactly how to replace the embryonic mouse cells with adult human cells, but if that puzzle is solved...(研究人员仍未完全明确如何用成人人类细胞替代小鼠胚胎细胞，但如果这个难题得到解决……)”可知，用成人人类细胞培育牙齿是目前研究中尚未解决的关键问题，即最大的剩余挑战。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，以及第二段“That may be a way off, but at King’s College London, Ana Angelova Volponi has been experimenting with lab-grown teeth for almost two decades, and was part of a team that in 2013 grew a tooth from human and mouse cells. This year, she led a study that built upon that work and achieved a breakthrough in the material used to house the growing tooth in the lab, which better mimics the actual environment where biological teeth grow in the mouth. It’s a key step on the way to replacing the mouse cells with human cells and stimulating them to form a tooth.(虽然这一目标尚需时日，但在伦敦国王学院，安娜・安杰洛娃・沃尔波尼已深耕实验室培育牙齿领域近二十年 —— 她曾是 2013 年那支利用人类细胞与小鼠细胞培育出牙齿的团队核心成员。今年，她主导了一项基于该成果的后续研究，在实验室牙齿培育的载体材料上取得突破性进展：这种材料能更精准地模拟口腔内生物牙齿的真实生长环境。这一步骤至关重要，为后续用人类细胞替代小鼠细胞、并诱导其分化形成牙齿奠定了基础)”可知，文章先介绍传统种植牙的局限性，再重点阐述伦敦国王学院Volponi团队在实验室培育生物牙齿的研究历程（2013年成果、今年材料突破）、核心要素及未来应用设想。所以短文主要关于实验室培育生物牙齿的研究进展。故选B项。 D What defines a high-quality middle-school teacher in today’s educational landscape? While academic knowledge remains a foundational requirement — mastery of subject matter allows teachers to explain complex concepts clearly and answer students’ questions with authority — it represents just one dimension of excellence. A truly exceptional teacher goes beyond mere knowledge transmission to become catalyst (催化剂)for student growth, mixing passion, empathy, and adaptability in equal measure. Take Ms. Sarah Chen, a 9th-grade biology teacher at Lincoln Middle School, who exemplifies this multidimensional approach. With a PhD in molecular biology, Ms. Chen certainly possesses deep academic qualifications, but her students remember her most for transforming boring textbook chapters into engaging narratives. This ability to connect abstract concepts to real-world relevance is a sign of inspiring educators, as studies show students are 50% more likely to remember information when it’s tied to meaningful contexts. Equally critical is ... _______________________________ Such mentorship (导师制)extends beyond academics; high-quality teachers recognize that students’ emotional well-being directly impacts their learning. They create inclusive classrooms where diverse perspectives are valued, whether by incorporating multicultural literature or adjusting teaching strategies for different students. In an era of rapid technological change, adaptability is another key quality. Ms. Elena Kim, who teaches English language arts, easily integrates digital tools like interactive storytelling apps while still prioritizing face-to-face discussions. She notes, “A great teacher doesn’t just follow the curriculum—they tailor it to their students’ needs, whether that means using TikTok to analyze poetry or hosting a debate on social media ethics.” This ability to change ensures that learning remains relevant and engaging for digital-native students. Perhaps the last one is the most important to high-quality teachers. All through their lives, they attend workshops to upgrade their teaching approaches, collaborate with colleagues to refine practices, and reflect on their teaching through student feedback. As educational researcher Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond writes, “The best teachers are those who never stop growing, modeling the curiosity and strength they hope to instill in their students.” Ultimately, defining a high-quality teacher isn’t about checking boxes on a list; it’s about fostering a dynamic environment where students feel challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential. 12. What makes Ms. Chen so memorable to her students? A. Her academic knowledge. B. Her professional enthusiasm. C. Her PhD educational background. D. Her contextualized teaching style. 13. What is the missing Paragraph 3 most probably about? A. The solution to teachers’ emotional problems. B. The reason for making academic progress. C. The importance of emotional intelligence. D. The advantage of the multidimensional method. 14. Which of the following is the most important to Ms. Elena? A. Technological use. B. Curriculum requirements. C. Students’ needs. D. The ability to change. 15. What does Dr. Darling-Hammond emphasize? A. Lifelong learning. B. Teaching ability. C. Collaborative spirits. D. Professional demonstration. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍当今教育背景下优质中学教师应具备的学术知识、共情等多方面关键素养。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“With a PhD in molecular biology, Ms. Chen certainly possesses deep academic qualifications, but her students remember her most for transforming boring textbook chapters into engaging narratives.(陈老师拥有分子生物学博士学位，无疑具备深厚的学术资历，但她的学生们最记得的是她将枯燥的课本章节转化为引人入胜的叙事内容)”可知，学生对陈老师印象深刻的核心原因是她能把知识转化为贴合实际的生动内容，即情境化的教学风格。故选D项。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段首句“Such mentorship extends beyond academics; high-quality teachers recognize that students’ emotional well-being directly impacts their learning.(这种指导不仅限于学术方面；优质教师意识到学生的心理健康直接影响他们的学习)”可知，缺失部分应涉及情感智力的重要性。故选C项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“A great teacher doesn’t just follow the curriculum — they tailor it to their students’ needs, whether that means using TikTok to analyze poetry or hosting a debate on social media ethics.(一位优秀的教师不仅仅是照本宣科 —— 他们会根据学生的需求调整课程，无论是用抖音分析诗歌，还是举办关于社交媒体伦理的辩论)”可知，埃琳娜老师认为优秀教师的关键是根据学生需求调整教学，学生需求对她而言最为重要。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“As educational researcher Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond writes, “The best teachers are those who never stop growing, modeling the curiosity and strength they hope to instill in their students.”(正如教育研究员琳达・达林-哈蒙德博士所写：“最优秀的教师是那些永不停止成长的人，他们为学生树立了自己希望灌输给他们的好奇心和意志力榜样。”)”可知，达林-哈蒙德博士强调优秀教师应保持持续成长，核心是终身学习的品质。故选A项。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多于选项。 Have you ever caught yourself smiling at something small, like solving a tough homework problem, finishing a good book, or taking a walk after a long day? ____16____ In our busy world, we often feel pressured to reach big milestones such as entering a high-ranking university or steadily climbing the ladder of success. ____17____ True growth often happens in the quiet spaces in between, like when you manage your time better, help a friend without being asked, or keep trying after a setback. They may not be grand victories, but they shape your character and build resilience (韧性). How many times have you felt overwhelmed with schoolwork or other responsibilities — your mind so crowded that you can no longer focus, and you just want to give up? But you’re more resilient than that, so take a short break and re-centre yourself by doing something just for you. That’s what I do. ____18____ This may seem mundane (平凡的), but those brief moments of mindfulness allow me to sort out my thoughts. Then I come back and maybe write just one paragraph, calmer and proud of myself for not giving up. Progress doesn’t always come with applause; sometimes it’s just quietly showing up for yourself. When we approach life as a long journey rather than a race, every small action, whether that’s waking up early, practising a skill or simply showing kindness, adds another stepping stone to the path we walk. When we look back, we can see how far we’ve come. ____19____ Every day, write one simple thing you accomplished: I finished reading a chapter; I spoke up in class; I took care of myself today. Over time, these notes become a record of your quiet courage and proof that you’re growing, even when progress feels slow. ____20____ So, when you face a challenge, remember that even the smallest act of perseverance is worth celebrating. You’re growing, slowly, bravely, and beautifully. A. Besides, I believe that every effort counts. B. If it helps to see this clearly, keep a small-achievements journal. C. As important as these goals are to many, they’re not the whole story. D. However, we’re all learning to navigate our way forward in this fast way. E. I make myself a cup of tea or take a moment to listen to the birds in the trees. F. Moments like these may seem ordinary, but they quietly tell the story of who we are. G. Life’s depth isn’t built from shining moments but from the steady rhythm of ordinary days. 【答案】16. F 17. C 18. E 19. B 20. G 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述平凡中的小瞬间和小成就对个人成长的重要意义。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Have you ever caught yourself smiling at something small, like solving a tough homework problem, finishing a good book, or taking a walk after a long day?(你有没有发现自己会为一些小事而微笑，比如解出一道难题、读完一本好书，或者在漫长的一天后散散步？)”可知，此处应承接上文的“小事”，对其意义进行阐释。F选项“像这样的时刻可能看起来很平常，但它们默默地诉说着我们是谁。”中Moments like these指代上文提到的小瞬间，衔接自然。故选F项。 【17题详解】 根据上文“In our busy world, we often feel pressured to reach big milestones such as entering a high-ranking university or steadily climbing the ladder of success.(在这个忙碌的世界里，我们常常感到有压力去达成重大的里程碑，比如进入一所名牌大学或在事业上稳步攀升)”以及下文“True growth often happens in the quiet spaces in between(真正的成长往往发生在这些间隙的安静时刻)”可知，此处需转折衔接“重大里程碑”和“微小成长”。C选项“尽管这些目标对很多人来说很重要，但它们并不是全部。”既肯定上文目标的重要性，又引出下文真正的成长所在，符合逻辑。故选C项。 【18题详解】 根据上文“But you’re more resilient than that, so take a short break and re-centre yourself by doing something just for you. That’s what I do.(但你比这更有韧性，所以休息一下，做些只为自己的事情来重新集中注意力。我就是这么做的)”以及下文“This may seem mundane (平凡的), but those brief moments of mindfulness allow me to sort out my thoughts.(这可能看起来很平凡，但那些短暂的专注时刻能让我理清思绪)”可知，此处应具体说明“我”做的事。E选项“我会给自己泡杯茶，或者花点时间听听树上的鸟叫。”是具体的放松行为，下文This即指代这些行为，衔接紧密。故选E项。 【19题详解】 根据上文“When we look back, we can see how far we’ve come.(当我们回首往事时，我们能看到自己已经走了多远)”以及下文“Every day, write one simple thing you accomplished(每天，写下一件你完成的小事)”可知，此处应提出一个能看到成长的具体方法。B选项“如果这能帮助你清楚地看到这一点，那就写一本小成就日记吧。”中keep a small-achievements journal与下文write one simple thing you accomplished相呼应，给出了具体途径。故选B项。 【20题详解】 根据下文“So, when you face a challenge, remember that even the smallest act of perseverance is worth celebrating.(所以，当你面临挑战时，记住即使是最微小的坚持也值得庆祝)”可知，此处应是总结性语句，点明平凡与成长的关系。G选项“生活的深度不是由闪耀的时刻造就的，而是由平凡日子的稳定节奏造就的。”升华了文章主旨，ordinary days与下文smallest act相呼应，引出总结性建议。故选G项。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A woman was thinking about asking her boss for a raise in salary and she was struggling for days.

For Mrs Henderson’s Year One class, that meant a special task: “Draw something you’re thankful for.” When she wrote it on the whiteboard, the children’s eyes lit up with excitement. Many families in the class didn’t have much money. fancy dinners and new toys were scarce, yet the children still loved Thanksgiving. They chatted about Mum’s roast turkey, sweet cranberry sauce, and granny’s pies that made kitchens smell wonderful. Mrs Henderson smiled, guessing she would see lots of colourful pictures of good foods. By break time, indeed, most desks were covered with orange and brown crayon drawings of turkeys and pies. However, Douglas was different. His clothes were too large, and his shoes were torn. During break, he never played with the other children. Instead, he stood beside Mrs Henderson, shoulders hunched, hands in hers, eyes full of sadness well beyond his six years. She tried talking to him, but he only mumbled (叽咕) or nodded, then looked away. When the break ended, Mrs Henderson walked around the classroom, praising each child’s work — bright suns and funny- looking turkeys — until she reached Douglas’s desk. On his paper was just one thing: a simple pencil drawing of a hand, with no colour or detail. Mrs Henderson felt puzzled but said nothing, realising Douglas must have a reason for his choice. At the end of the lesson, several children gathered around Douglas’s desk. “Is it a farmer’s hand? They raise turkeys” Mia asked excitedly. “No, it must be a police officer’s hand. They keep us safe,” Jake said. “Maybe it’s God’s hand, because God looks after everyone,” Lila suggested. They chattered until Mrs Henderson asked them to pack away. The children left with laughter and smiles, but Douglas slipped out silently. When the classroom emptied, Mrs Henderson sat by Douglas’s desk, looking at the lonely hand on the page. Then she heard a small cough. Douglas had come back, backpack hanging from one shoulder, eyes cast down. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Whose hand did you draw?”Mrs Henderson asked softly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: “Thank you,” she said, voice warm, “This is the best gift I’ve ever received.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Paragraph one: “Whose hand did you draw?” Mrs Henderson asked softly. Douglas looked up, his eyes meeting hers, and then he whispered, “It’s your hand, Mrs Henderson.” He explained that whenever he felt lonely or scared, her hand would reach out to comfort him, whether it was a gentle pat on the back or a reassuring squeeze of his shoulder. He said that her hand made him feel safe and loved, which was something he cherished deeply, especially since he didn’t have much of that at home. Paragraph two: “Thank you,” she said, voice warm, “This is the best gift I’ve ever received.” She reached out and gently took Douglas’s hand in hers, feeling a connection that went beyond words. She told him that his drawing reminded her of the true spirit of Thanksgiving, which was not just about delicious food or fancy gifts, but about gratitude for the people who cared for us. Douglas smiled, his eyes shining with happiness, knowing that he had given Mrs Henderson something truly special that day, a memory that would stay with her forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开。在感恩节前夕，Henderson老师让学生画感恩之物，多数孩子画了美食，而家境贫寒、性格孤僻的Douglas却画了一只简单的手。同学们纷纷猜测，最后教室空了，Douglas回来，Henderson老师坐在他桌旁看着画。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“‘你画的是谁的手？’Henderson夫人轻声问。”可知，第一段可先描写 Douglas的回应，再通过他的解释，交代画老师手的原因 —— 老师的手在他孤独害怕时给予安慰，让他感受到安全感与爱，体现老师对他的关怀。 ②由第二段句首内容“‘谢谢你，’她声音温暖地说，‘这是我收到过的最好的礼物。’”可知，第二段可描写老师收到礼物后的感动与回应，通过她的话语点明感恩节的真正意义是感恩关怀自己的人，最后描写Douglas的喜悦，凸显师生间真挚的情感联结。 2.续写线索：老师询问画作对象 ——Douglas 回应并解释画老师手的原因 —— 老师感谢并称赞礼物珍贵 —— 老师阐述感恩节的真谛 ——Douglas 因礼物传递心意而喜悦 —— 师生间形成超越言语的情感共鸣 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①抬头看：look up/raise one’s head/lift one’s eyes ②低语，轻声说：whisper/speak softly/murmur ③解释：explain/elucidate 情绪类 ①孤独：lonely/isolated ②害怕：scared/frightened/afraid 【点睛】【高分句型1】She told him that his drawing reminded her of the true spirit of Thanksgiving, which was not just about delicious food or fancy gifts, but about gratitude for the people who cared for us.(运用了that引导的宾语从句、which引导的非限制性定语从句、who引导的定语从句) 【高分句型2】Douglas smiled, his eyes shining with happiness, knowing that he had given Mrs Henderson something truly special that day, a memory that would stay with her forever.

Wang Yan, a physician at Raffles Hospital Beijing with over 30 years of experience, noted that teenagers often receive mixed messages about body image. “Many believe that being thin means being healthy, but visceral fat (内脏脂肪)can still be present in those who appear slim,” she explained. Different from subcutaneous fat (皮下脂肪)which sits just beneath the skin, visceral fat surrounds internal organs and is more closely linked to long-term health risks. While body mass index (BMI)is a handy tool for assessing weight, BMI=weight (in kilograms)/height (in meters)2, Wang advised teenagers to be careful. “It’s best to use growth charts to understand BMI rather than adult rules,” she said, noting that temporary weight gain often balances out as height increases. BMI also has its limitations — for instance, a teenager with a normal BMI might still carry excess body fat. She recommended considering additional indicators, such as the body roundness index (BRI) for a fuller picture of health. BRI range for relatively healthy people: 4.5-5.5 Beyond numbers, Wang pointed out that poor stamina (耐力)during activities like running could signal potential weight-related issues. Still, she emphasized it’s not solely about weight — regular exercise improves stamina. 1. Which of the following are most probably the target readers of this text? A. Adults. B. Teenagers. C. Parents. D. Doctors. 2. Which of the following should we watch more to assess our healthiness? A. Visceral fat. B. Subcutaneous fat. C. Slimness. D. Weight. 3. Which of the following is more regarded as being healthy according to Wang Yan? A. BMI=22.5; BMI=6. B. BMI=26.4; BMI=5.6. C. 170cm, 58kg; BRI=4.9. D. 160cm, 68kg; BRI=4.6. B When Adam Kovalcik flew to Ohio for the Regeneron International Science and Engineering Fair (ISEF), an international science competition, he did not expect to come home with the top prize. “I cannot describe this feeling,” Adam said after receiving the award in a lively ceremony. “I did not expect such a huge international competition to be won by someone from a small village in a small European country. So, it was just pure shock.” The 19-year-old from Slovakia had developed a new way to make an experimental anti-viral drug called galidesivir, which targets RNA viruses like COVID-19 and Ebola. “This could be a huge step to help prevent some of these RNA viruses,” said Chris RoDee, chair of the judging committee of the ISEF. Adam’s big innovation started with corn husks (玉米壳). Well, furfuryl alcohol (糠醇), which comes from corn husks and is relatively cheap compared to other starting points for making drugs. One by one, he added chemicals to furfuryl alcohol in the lab, building the molecule (分子)block by block, until he got a crucial sugar called aza-saccharide. It only took seven steps to get there. From there, it was only three more steps to get galidesivir. In comparison, current manufacturing requires 15 steps. “He was able to shortcut this entire process because he just went in through a different door,” RoDee said. Also, Adam’s process takes five days. The conventional manufacturing method, he said, takes nine. Based on early computer calculations, he thinks his new version of the drug could be five times as effective as the current galidesivir against COVID-19. The young man’s ambitions don’t end with advancing drug manufacturing, though. He said he also wants to use his chemistry skills to start a company that manufactures eco-friendly perfumes (香水)from corn. “From the first time I stepped foot into a lab, I knew that I wanted to do something,” he said. 4. How did Adam feel when he won the top prize? A. Awkward. B. Surprised. C. Dismissive. D. Grateful. 5. Which of the following is the major advantage of Adam’s new method? A. Fewer production steps. B. Eco-friendly way of production. C. Lower requirements for chemistry skills. D. Effectiveness in curing viruses of different types. 6. What can we know about Adam from the article? A. He likes taking part in competitions. B. He complains about living in a small countryside. C. He tries new methods in order to avoid repetitive work. D. He wants to contribute to the society with his knowledge. 7. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. From winning to winning: A Competition Story B. Corn Husks: The Best Solution to Viruses C. From Corn to Cure: A Teen’s Breakthrough D. Galidesivir: A Unique Cure for RNA Viruses C It’s not surprising that many people fear the dentist. Replacing a tooth often requires invasive surgery and implanting (种植)a titanium (钛)screw into a patient’s jawbone, then waiting months for that to strengthen into an artificial root, before attaching a crown or cap on top of it. But research groups around the world are working to find ways to implant and grow real biological teeth in a human jaw. That may be a way off, but at King’s College London, Ana Angelova Volponi has been experimenting with lab-grown teeth for almost two decades, and was part of a team that in 2013 grew a tooth from human and mouse cells. This year, she led a study that built upon that work and achieved a breakthrough in the material used to house the growing tooth in the lab, which better mimics the actual environment where biological teeth grow in the mouth. It’s a key step on the way to replacing the mouse cells with human cells and stimulating them to form a tooth. The idea of creating lab-grown tooth dates back to the 1980s, Volponi said, but the one that she and her colleagues created over a decade ago was the first that used adult human gingival (牙龈的)cells and combined them with tooth cells taken from a mouse embryo (胚胎). “It’s almost like a tripod (三脚架),” she said about the elements that contribute to growing a tooth in a lab setting. “The two types of cells are engaging in tooth making, in a sort of conversation, and then we have the environment where this happens.” Researchers still don’t know exactly how to replace the embryonic mouse cells with adult human cells, but if that puzzle is solved, Volponi envisions two possible ways to integrate lab-grown teeth into everyday dentistry: “We either grow a tooth up to a certain stage of development, and then put it into the tooth socket where a lost tooth was. Or, we fully grow the tooth first and then implant it surgically. It’s still too early to say which approach will be better.” 8. The author mentions “invasive surgery” in the first paragraph to ________. A. criticize outdated dental techniques B. compare different types of dental surgeries C. explain the complexity of traditional dental procedures D. highlight the need for alternative tooth replacement solutions 9.

While academic knowledge remains a foundational requirement — mastery of subject matter allows teachers to explain complex concepts clearly and answer students’ questions with authority — it represents just one dimension of excellence. A truly exceptional teacher goes beyond mere knowledge transmission to become catalyst (催化剂)for student growth, mixing passion, empathy, and adaptability in equal measure. Take Ms. Sarah Chen, a 9th-grade biology teacher at Lincoln Middle School, who exemplifies this multidimensional approach. With a PhD in molecular biology, Ms. Chen certainly possesses deep academic qualifications, but her students remember her most for transforming boring textbook chapters into engaging narratives. This ability to connect abstract concepts to real-world relevance is a sign of inspiring educators, as studies show students are 50% more likely to remember information when it’s tied to meaningful contexts. Equally critical is ... _______________________________ Such mentorship (导师制)extends beyond academics; high-quality teachers recognize that students’ emotional well-being directly impacts their learning. They create inclusive classrooms where diverse perspectives are valued, whether by incorporating multicultural literature or adjusting teaching strategies for different students. In an era of rapid technological change, adaptability is another key quality. Ms. Elena Kim, who teaches English language arts, easily integrates digital tools like interactive storytelling apps while still prioritizing face-to-face discussions. She notes, “A great teacher doesn’t just follow the curriculum—they tailor it to their students’ needs, whether that means using TikTok to analyze poetry or hosting a debate on social media ethics.” This ability to change ensures that learning remains relevant and engaging for digital-native students. Perhaps the last one is the most important to high-quality teachers. All through their lives, they attend workshops to upgrade their teaching approaches, collaborate with colleagues to refine practices, and reflect on their teaching through student feedback. As educational researcher Dr. Linda Darling-Hammond writes, “The best teachers are those who never stop growing, modeling the curiosity and strength they hope to instill in their students.” Ultimately, defining a high-quality teacher isn’t about checking boxes on a list; it’s about fostering a dynamic environment where students feel challenged, supported, and inspired to reach their full potential. 12. What makes Ms. Chen so memorable to her students? A. Her academic knowledge. B. Her professional enthusiasm. C. Her PhD educational background. D. Her contextualized teaching style. 13. What is the missing Paragraph 3 most probably about? A. The solution to teachers’ emotional problems. B. The reason for making academic progress. C. The importance of emotional intelligence. D. The advantage of the multidimensional method. 14. Which of the following is the most important to Ms. Elena? A. Technological use. B. Curriculum requirements. C. Students’ needs. D. The ability to change. 15. What does Dr. Darling-Hammond emphasize? A. Lifelong learning. B. Teaching ability. C. Collaborative spirits. D. Professional demonstration. 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。选项中有两项为多于选项。 Have you ever caught yourself smiling at something small, like solving a tough homework problem, finishing a good book, or taking a walk after a long day? ____16____ In our busy world, we often feel pressured to reach big milestones such as entering a high-ranking university or steadily climbing the ladder of success. ____17____ True growth often happens in the quiet spaces in between, like when you manage your time better, help a friend without being asked, or keep trying after a setback. They may not be grand victories, but they shape your character and build resilience (韧性). How many times have you felt overwhelmed with schoolwork or other responsibilities — your mind so crowded that you can no longer focus, and you just want to give up? But you’re more resilient than that, so take a short break and re-centre yourself by doing something just for you. That’s what I do. ____18____ This may seem mundane (平凡的), but those brief moments of mindfulness allow me to sort out my thoughts. Then I come back and maybe write just one paragraph, calmer and proud of myself for not giving up. Progress doesn’t always come with applause; sometimes it’s just quietly showing up for yourself. When we approach life as a long journey rather than a race, every small action, whether that’s waking up early, practising a skill or simply showing kindness, adds another stepping stone to the path we walk. When we look back, we can see how far we’ve come. ____19____ Every day, write one simple thing you accomplished: I finished reading a chapter; I spoke up in class; I took care of myself today. Over time, these notes become a record of your quiet courage and proof that you’re growing, even when progress feels slow. ____20____ So, when you face a challenge, remember that even the smallest act of perseverance is worth celebrating. You’re growing, slowly, bravely, and beautifully. A. Besides, I believe that every effort counts. B. If it helps to see this clearly, keep a small-achievements journal. C. As important as these goals are to many, they’re not the whole story. D. However, we’re all learning to navigate our way forward in this fast way. E. I make myself a cup of tea or take a moment to listen to the birds in the trees. F. Moments like these may seem ordinary, but they quietly tell the story of who we are. G. Life’s depth isn’t built from shining moments but from the steady rhythm of ordinary days. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A woman was thinking about asking her boss for a raise in salary and she was struggling for days.

For Mrs Henderson’s Year One class, that meant a special task: “Draw something you’re thankful for.” When she wrote it on the whiteboard, the children’s eyes lit up with excitement. Many families in the class didn’t have much money. fancy dinners and new toys were scarce, yet the children still loved Thanksgiving. They chatted about Mum’s roast turkey, sweet cranberry sauce, and granny’s pies that made kitchens smell wonderful. Mrs Henderson smiled, guessing she would see lots of colourful pictures of good foods. By break time, indeed, most desks were covered with orange and brown crayon drawings of turkeys and pies. However, Douglas was different. His clothes were too large, and his shoes were torn. During break, he never played with the other children. Instead, he stood beside Mrs Henderson, shoulders hunched, hands in hers, eyes full of sadness well beyond his six years. She tried talking to him, but he only mumbled (叽咕) or nodded, then looked away. When the break ended, Mrs Henderson walked around the classroom, praising each child’s work — bright suns and funny- looking turkeys — until she reached Douglas’s desk. On his paper was just one thing: a simple pencil drawing of a hand, with no colour or detail. Mrs Henderson felt puzzled but said nothing, realising Douglas must have a reason for his choice. At the end of the lesson, several children gathered around Douglas’s desk. “Is it a farmer’s hand? They raise turkeys” Mia asked excitedly. “No, it must be a police officer’s hand. They keep us safe,” Jake said. “Maybe it’s God’s hand, because God looks after everyone,” Lila suggested. They chattered until Mrs Henderson asked them to pack away. The children left with laughter and smiles, but Douglas slipped out silently. When the classroom emptied, Mrs Henderson sat by Douglas’s desk, looking at the lonely hand on the page. Then she heard a small cough. Douglas had come back, backpack hanging from one shoulder, eyes cast down. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph one: “Whose hand did you draw?”Mrs Henderson asked softly. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph two: “Thank you,” she said, voice warm, “This is the best gift I’ve ever received.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
