A．To show her care for her family. B．To convey her love for writing letters. C．To express her feelings attached to letters. D．To prove her consistency in writing letters. 推理判断题。根据第一段中的 “I was literally waiting by the mailbox to get a letter with the warmest comfort from her.” 可知，作者就在邮箱旁等着从妈妈那里得到的有最温暖安慰的信。由此可推知，作者分享她在大学时期的经历是为了表达她对信件的深刻情结。故选C。 √ 细节理解题。根据第三段中的 “Overnight, my inbox became this harbor of heartbreak—a single mother in Sacramento...this is how I initiated the act...” 可知，作者收到了好多心碎之人的来信，发起这一行动是想要给予他们情感上的支持。故选D。 2．What caused the author to launch the act? A．She advocated a paperless lifestyle. B．She intended to provide professional aid. C．She tried to improve her communication skills. D．She aimed to give emotional support with letters. √ 3．Why does the author call the mail crate “a magical icebreaker” ? A．It cures people of mental diseases. B．It serves as a conversation starter. C．It has magic power to melt ice. D．It empowers people to be brave. 推理判断题。根据第五段中的 “So I get to tell total strangers about a woman whose husband was traumatized (受精神创伤) from war...” 可知，作者随身携带大木箱，可以和陌生人展开交流，讲述这些信件背后的故事。由此可推知，作者称邮件箱为 “神奇的破冰器” 是因为作者把它作为谈话的开场白。故选B。 √ 4．What is the best title for the passage? A．Family Letters Are Priceless B．Love for Writing Never Declines C．World Needs More Love Letters D．Hand-written Letters Improve Efficiency √ 标题归纳题。通读全文可知， “我” 在大学时期经常在邮箱旁等待妈妈寄给 “我” 的信件，这使 “我” 对纸质信件有了深刻的情结。在搬去纽约之后， “我” 非常沮丧，于是 “我” 开始给陌生人写信，发起了 “世界需要更多爱的信件” 行动，给人们提供精神和情感上的支持。所以，C项 “世界需要更多的充满爱的信件” 适合作为本文的最佳标题，故选C。 B (2025·湖南长郡中学高三测试) 　　The skies over Latin America's largest city are set to witness a futuristic aerospace revolution after the Brazilian airline Gol reached an agreement that could see it transport regular passengers around São Paulo in hundreds of low-cost zero-emission electric air taxis. 　　Dómhnal Slattery, chief executive of the Dublin-based firm Avolon, which will provide the aircraft to Gol and recently placed an order for 500 of the aircraft from their British manufacturer, admitted helicopters were the “kingdom of the wealthiest”． 　　But the Avolon boss claimed the introduction of VA-X4 eVTOLs [electric vertical(垂直的) takeoff and landing] aircraft to São Paulo would be a gamechanger for regular passengers once the taxis, which look like a futuristic cross between a helicopter and a glider, were delivered in late 2024 or 2025. 　　“Our basic estimate at the moment is that the operating cost here for this aircraft will be equal to $1 per passenger over a 25-mile trip，” Slattery told Financial Times.“Which is almost equal to an Uber ride.” 　　Few cities are crying out for such a revolution more than São Paulo, a sprawling metropolis with more than 12 million citizens and choked by a fleet of 8.6 m vehicles. 　　In the late 1990s, the congestion(拥塞) became so bad in what is now the world's fifth biggest city after Tokyo, Delhi, Seoul and Shanghai that authorities were forced to introduce a number plate rotation(循环) system for vehicles. 　　Stephen Fitzpatrick, the head of the British aerospace manufacturer that produces the aircraft, Vertical Aerospace, said the flying taxis would be ideal for Brazil's biggest city and will “transform how we travel around high population density cities that are crowded with traffic”． 　　The Bristol-based Vertical Aerospace was founded in 2016 and promises to pioneer “a new era in vertical transport”． 　　“We'll be looking to Asia after São Paulo，” Avolon's chief commercial officer, Paul Geaney, told Reuters. 语篇解读　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为了改善交通状况，相关公司估计未来会有更为低廉的交通出行方式，可以改善高密度城市交通堵塞状况。 5．What did Dómhnal Slattery think of helicopters? A．They could be afforded by all. B．They showed the owners' social status. C．They could be mostly used by the rich. D．They provided convenience for travellers. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的 “Dómhnal Slattery...admitted helicopters were the‘kingdom of the wealthiest’．” 可知， Dómhnal Slattery认为直升机可能主要被富人使用。故选C。 √ 6．What is the advantage of electric air taxis? A．Traditional design. B．Eco-friendliness. C．Free delivery. D．Zero noise. 细节理解题。根据第一段中的 “...hundreds of low-cost zero-emission electric air taxis” 可推知，电动空中出租车具有成本低、零排放的优势。B 项 “Eco-friendliness” 与 zero-emission 属于同义替换。故选B。 √ 7．Which of the following can be inferred from the text? A．More cities are eager for electric air taxis than São Paulo. B．The flying taxis will be ideal for Brazil's biggest city. C．Travelling by VA-X4 eVTOLs can be more convenient but more expensive than by Uber. D．The Avolon will enter the Asian transportation market in the future. √ 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段 “‘We'll be looking to Asia after São Paulo，’ Avolon's chief commercial officer, Paul Geaney, told Reuters.” 可推知，在未来 Avolon公司可能会进入亚洲的运输市场。故选D。 8．Which of the following is a suitable title for the text? A．Electric Air Taxis to Make Their First Appearance in Brazil's Most Congested City B．Advanced Vertical Aircrafts Ordered by the Avolon Company C．VA-X4 eVTOLs—a Lifesaver for High Population Density Cities D．Uber Ride—a Futuristic Aerospace Revolution √ 标题归纳题。通读全文可知，第一段总起全文，说一种成本低廉且零排放的 “电动空中出租车” 将在巴西圣保罗投入运营。下文则通过详细介绍这种新式交通工具的好处，以及对其发展前景的展望，进一步说它能够解决圣保罗的城市交通堵塞状况。因此，A 项涵盖本文的主题，最适合作为文章标题。故选A。 Ⅱ.完形填空(本题共15个小题，每小题1分，共15分) (2025·山东省实验中学高三模拟) 　　Li Cheng, 20, a college student and engineering enthusiast from Southwest China's Chongqing, is making waves by turning his dreams into reality. 　　Employing his knowledge, insights and 1 ， Li has invented a groundbreaking Braille(盲文) dot display 2 for the blind.Named “Argus”， the first bunch of the Braille dot display is expected to be 3 this summer. 　　Li said his idea for Argus was traced back to the end of his freshman year in 2021.One day, when he was reading a novel on his phone, a series of questions 4 his mind: “How do 5 impaired(受损的)people read?
