Despite the rise of digital technology, the world is still hungry for paper. Between four and eight billion trees are cut down every year to meet demand. When he was just 16 and still at school, Valentyn Frechka wanted to reduce deforestation and find an alternative to cellulose (纤维素) — paper’s main raw material. While hiking in the Carpathian Mountains, he wondered if fallen leaves could be the answer.
In 2021 after three years of testing in school laboratories, Frechka met a businessman named Alexander Sobolenko. “We decided to start Releaf Paper as a commercial project. He showed his innovation at several international school Olympiads in the United States, South Korea and Kenya, and received positive feedback from everyone.” Sobolenko explains.
The idea is as simple as it is attractive. Releaf Paper turns what is normally green waste into a brand-new product. The word “Releaf” is a homophone of the start-up’s mission: to provide relief to the environment. “We cooperate with big cities,” Sobolenko says. “The leaves are delivered to our production center, and we do some basic cleaning, washing and drying, and then, we granulate (制成颗粒) it, so that we can use the leaves throughout the year.” The granules are turned into pulp (浆), similar to wood pulp, which paper factories use to produce paper.
Cities collect fallen leaves and, normally, compost or burn them. Releaf Paper offers a more environmentally friendly solution. “Sometimes, leaves are stored for six months or more, before being composted, and that creates emissions,” says Sobolenko. “We help cities get rid of leaves for free. Our production causes very low CO2 emissions.”
What does the future hold? Sobolenko is developing plans to expand internationally. “There are countries with a lot of tropical fruit waste — pineapples and bananas, for example,” he explains. “We found that, with pineapple, we can make paper and produce hygiene products, such as tissues and toilet paper. The technology is the same, but the yield of the fibers is different.”
24. Why did Valentyn Frechka want to find an alternative to cellulose?
A. To invent a new type of paper. B. To protect forests.
C. To reduce the production cost. D. To earn enough money.
25. What can we learn about Releaf Paper from the passage?
A. It transforms fallen leaves into pulp. B. It collects fallen leaves at a high cost.
C. It was started by Alexander Sobolenko. D. It has been launched in several countries.
26. What does paragraph 4 talk about?
A. The method of storing fallen leaves. B. Releaf Paper’s working process.
C. Releaf Paper’s environmental benefits. D. The contributions to city economy.
27. What is Sobolenko’s plan for the future of Releaf Paper?
A. To focus mainly on paper products. B. To widen raw materials globally.
C. To replace leaves with fruit waste. D. To shift from cities to farming regions.
C
In West Africa, particularly in Cameroon, Ivory Coast, and Togo, mental health remains a significant taboo and therapy (治疗) services are almost nonexistent. In this challenging environment, hairdressers have emerged as trusted community figures providing informal mental health support.
The Bluemind Foundation an international non-governmental organization, whose constant message is “mental health is health” has created the Heal by Hair program. Through a three-day course, it trains over 400 hairdressers to act as “mental health ambassadors” by teaching them active listening skills and how to recognize signs of depression and gender-based violence. These hairdressers become first points of contact for customers facing mental health issues, offering comfort and guidance. They also refer customers to professionals or authorities when necessary, though many face financial (财政) and societal limits to formal care.
The program captures values of listening and support in everyday salon interactions, a communal space where women traditionally spend time. Already, over 150 hairdressers have been trained in countries like Togo, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon, and the initiative has reached over 100,000 women and plans to expand further across Africa. By 2035, Bluemind Foundation aims to train 1,000 hairdressers in 20 African cities, and to help improve the mental health of 2,000,000 African women.
The New York Times article highlights the significant impact of Heal By Hair. The project not only addresses the shame surrounding mental health but empowers women hairdressers to become recognized community leaders and emotional support figures, transforming their salons into safe spaces for discussion and healing, and making it a new cornerstone of mental health support. This grassroots approach highlights the importance of accessible mental health care solutions in regions with limited resources.
28. What does the underlined word “taboo” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. A pressing issue. B. A sex difference.
C. A deadly disease. D. A socially unacceptable topic.
29. Which of the following is a task of “mental health ambassadors”?
A. Teaching women good listening and oral skills.
B. Decorating their hair salons into a training room.
C. Offering aid to those showing signs of depression.
D. Financing those who can’t afford formal mental care.
30. How does the author present the program’s influence in paragraph 3?
A. By providing data. B. By giving examples.
C. By quoting an expert. D. By making comparisons.
31. What does The New York Times think of the Heal By Hair program?
A. It’s risk-free. B. It’s misleading. C. It’s short-lived. D. It’s pioneering.
D
As a region frequently affected by drought in Africa, the Sahel used to suffer from severe water shortages. But in recent decades, climate change and population growth have worsened the situation, with numerous communities lacking access to clean drinking water. This critical shortage led to widespread water-related diseases and even forced migration in some severely affected areas, with experts warning that traditional water sources might dry up within the coming years. That was where the innovative AquaSol initiative came in.
The AquaSol project, a program aimed at providing clean water in the Sahel, has celebrated the successful installation of 50 solar-powered water purification units (净水装置) this year. The newest station, named “Hope Spring” by local communities with its origin in a native proverb, symbolizes an optimistic future where clean water is no longer an impossible luxury but a daily reality.
Hope Spring represents a key part of the AquaSol initiative that brings together tech companies, non-profits, and international agencies in a mission to deal with water shortage using renewable energy. For the project, efficient solar panels (太阳能板) power advanced purification systems that clean groundwater, which is then safely stored in specialized tanks for community use. So far, Hope Spring has reliably provided safe water for over 40,000 people, with several villages already achieving self-sufficiency (自给自足) in water supply.
The Sahel’s selection as the main site is strategic, given its high solar energy potential and urgent water needs. Government policies that support green technology and local partnerships have created an ideal environment for such innovations. The success of these solar water stations points to a brighter future not only for water security but also for the application of clean energy in solving global issues. As Dr. Amina Diallo, the project leader, stated, “With practical models like AquaSol, we can extend similar solutions to other dry regions where people’s lives are threatened by water shortage.”
32. What is a result of the water shortage in Sahel?
A. Worsening climate. B. Increasing population.
C. The spread of illnesses. D. The replacement of water sources.
33. What is the main purpose of the AquaSol project?
A. To offer accessible clean water. B. To ensure enough water storage.
C. To research climate change effects. D. To better water purification units.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How Hope Spring functions. B. What villagers think of the project.
C. The importance of clean groundwater. D. The effectiveness of solar panels.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Water Purification Units: A Fresh Hope
B. Hope Spring: A New Beginning
C. Solar power: A Bright Future of Energy
D. AquaSol: A Solution for Thirsty Lands
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。
With leaves covering the ground and cool air hinting at the colder days ahead, this season goes by two names: autumn and fall. But why do Americans tend to call it fall while the British prefer autumn? ____36____
Before “autumn” and “fall” became widespread, the season was often called “harvest”, reflecting the season’s main purpose. As society shifted from farm life to more city-centered living, the word “harvest” gradually lost its meaning as the name of the season and became more specifically associated with the act of gathering crops. ____37____.
The word “autumn” can be traced back to the Latin word “autumnus”, which originally meant “the season of early rains”. In ancient Rome, “autumnus” referred to the period of the year between summer and winter. ____38____. As the Roman Empire expanded, so did the usage of “autumnus” across Europe. As time went by, “autumn” gradually came to be widely used to describe the season.
____39____. In 16th-century England, expressions like “fall of the leaf” and “fall of the year” became common to describe the season when leaves dropped from trees. These phrases were eventually shortened to “fall”, a direct and visually clear term. When English settlers moved to the American colonies (殖民地) during the 17th century, they carried this term with them. ____40____. Meanwhile, “autumn” stayed the preferred term in England, valued for its smoother sound and its ties to ideas of life, change and decline.
Today, both words are used in the UK and the US. For Americans, “fall” is more common. In the UK, the opposite is true.
A. Because there are lots of leaves in both two countries.
B. The answer lies in a mix of history, language and culture.
C. In fact, “harvest” means gathering crops at the end of the growing cycle.
D. Compared with “autumn”, “fall” developed through a simpler shift in language.
E. Over time, “fall” became more popular in North America because it was easy to use.
F. It was a time of change as the leaves fell from the trees and the temperature dropped.
G. This change created space for “autumn” and “fall” to take over to describe the season.

____43____ by a similar promotion from a pizza shop, the café’s initiative (新举措) was at first ____44____ as a fun way to improve the customer experience and highlight their cozy atmosphere. However, they never ____45____ the overwhelming response it would receive. The online video showcasing customers dancing has received 7.6 million ____46____, making the café go viral.
Olivia Svenson, social media director at Coffee Milano Cafe, shared her ____47____ with ABC News: “We just thought it was going to be a(n) ____48____ thing for the people that come in every day.” She emphasized the joy of seeing people ____49____ themselves through dance, stating, “Everybody likes to see people happy.”
The café’s owner, Josh Rashid, also ____50____ the positive impact of the event. He noted that sometimes life can be ____51____, but moments like these — where laughter and joy are ____52____ — can make all the difference.

Cold wind brushed against Leo’s cheeks as he hurried down the snowy sidewalk. His duty at the grocery store had ended late, and he had skipped dinner just to clean up the mess in aisle (过道) four.
The streets were quiet, and the bus stop ahead looked like a tiny island in the dark. As Leo got closer, he saw the red taillights of the last bus pulling away. “No!” he shouted, breaking into a run. But it was too late.
Leo stood there for a moment breathing hard, watching the bus disappear down the street. His phone was dead, his gloves were too thin and he had no money for a taxi. The walk home would take at least an hour, and the snow was starting to fall again. Leo sat down on the cold bench, rubbing his hands together and trying not to feel too sorry for himself.
Across the street, a small cafe still had its lights on. A sign in the window said “Open Late”, and warm yellow light spilled out onto the sidewalk. Leo hesitated. He didn’t want to spend money he didn’t have, but he also didn’t want to freeze. Finally, he crossed the street and pushed open the door.
Inside, it smelled like cinnamon and hot chocolate. The woman behind the counter looked up and gave him a kind smile. “Long night?” she asked. Leo nodded and told her about the missed bus. “Well, sit down and warm up,” she said, already pouring a drink. “This is free.”
Leo held the warm mug between his hands and took small sips (一小口), letting the heat return to his body. The cafe was quiet except for soft jazz playing in the background. The woman brought him a plate of cookies.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为100左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Embarrassed, Leo refused to take them.

【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“This is an illustrated edition of the first book of the series. Illustrations are done by award-winning artist Jim Kay, who has created over 100 beautiful illustrations.(这是该系列第一本书的插图版。插图由获奖艺术家吉姆·凯绘制,他创作了超过100幅精美的插图)”可知,Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone 的亮点是其中的精美插图,故选D。

Despite the rise of digital technology, the world is still hungry for paper. Between four and eight billion trees are cut down every year to meet demand. When he was just 16 and still at school, Valentyn Frechka wanted to reduce deforestation and find an alternative to cellulose (纤维素) — paper’s main raw material. While hiking in the Carpathian Mountains, he wondered if fallen leaves could be the answer.
In 2021, after three years of testing in school laboratories, Frechka met a businessman named Alexander Sobolenko. “We decided to start Releaf Paper as a commercial project. He showed his innovation at several international school Olympiads in the United States, South Korea and Kenya, and received positive feedback from everyone.” Sobolenko explains.
The idea is as simple as it is attractive. Releaf Paper turns what is normally green waste into a brand-new product. The word “Releaf” is a homophone of the start-up’s mission: to provide relief to the environment. “We cooperate with big cities,” Sobolenko says. “The leaves are delivered to our production center, and we do some basic cleaning, washing and drying, and then, we granulate (制成颗粒) it, so that we can use the leaves throughout the year.” The granules are turned into pulp (浆), similar to wood pulp, which paper factories use to produce paper.
Cities collect fallen leaves and, normally, compost or burn them. Releaf Paper offers a more environmentally friendly solution. “Sometimes, leaves are stored for six months or more, before being composted, and that creates emissions,” says Sobolenko. “We help cities get rid of leaves for free. Our production causes very low CO2 emissions.”
What does the future hold? Sobolenko is developing plans to expand internationally. “There are countries with a lot of tropical fruit waste — pineapples and bananas, for example,” he explains. “We found that, with pineapple, we can make paper and produce hygiene products, such as tissues and toilet paper. The technology is the same, but the yield of the fibers is different.”
24. Why did Valentyn Frechka want to find an alternative to cellulose?
A. To invent a new type of paper. B. To protect forests.
C. To reduce the production cost. D. To earn enough money.
25. What can we learn about Releaf Paper from the passage?
A. It transforms fallen leaves into pulp. B. It collects fallen leaves at a high cost.
C. It was started by Alexander Sobolenko. D. It has been launched in several countries.
26. What does paragraph 4 talk about?
A. The method of storing fallen leaves. B. Releaf Paper’s working process.
C. Releaf Paper’s environmental benefits. D. The contributions to city economy.
27. What is Sobolenko’s plan for the future of Releaf Paper?
A. To focus mainly on paper products. B. To widen raw materials globally.
C. To replace leaves with fruit waste. D. To shift from cities to farming regions.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了一位16岁少年致力于解决纸短缺问题,并经过三年实验,与一位商人合伙创立 Releaf Paper,将落叶转化为纸,从而保护环境和林木的故事。
24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When he was just 16 and still at school, Valentyn Frechka wanted to reduce deforestation and find an alternative to cellulose (纤维素) — paper’s main raw material.(在年仅16岁、还在上学的时候,瓦伦廷·弗雷奇卡就想要减少森林砍伐,并寻找一种替代纤维素(纸张的主要原料)的材料)”可知,他这样做的主要目的是保护林木,故选B。
【25题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段““The leaves are delivered to our production center, and we do some basic cleaning, washing and drying, and then, we granulate (制成颗粒) it, so that we can use the leaves throughout the year.” The granules are turned into pulp (浆), similar to wood pulp, which paper factories use to produce paper.( 这些树叶会被运送到我们的生产中心,然后我们会进行一些基础的清洁、清洗和干燥处理,接着将其粉碎,这样我们就能全年使用这些树叶了。这些颗粒会被制成类似木浆的纸浆,而造纸厂正是用这种纸浆来生产纸张的)”可知,Releaf Paper主要是把落叶转化为纸浆,故选A。
【26题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Cities collect fallen leaves and, normally, compost or burn them. Releaf Paper offers a more environmentally friendly solution. “Sometimes, leaves are stored for six months or more, before being composted, and that creates emissions,” says Sobolenko. “We help cities get rid of leaves for free. Our production causes very low CO2 emissions.”(城市会收集落叶,并通常会对其进行堆肥处理或焚烧处理。而 Releaf 纸则提供了一种更环保的解决方案。“有时,落叶会被存放六个月或更长时间,然后再进行堆肥处理,这会产生排放物。”索博连科说道。“我们帮助城市免费处理落叶。我们的生产过程产生的二氧化碳排放量非常低。”)”可知,本段主要讲述了Releaf Paper的环境效益,故选C。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Sobolenko is developing plans to expand internationally. “There are countries with a lot of tropical fruit waste — pineapples and bananas, for example,” he explains. “We found that, with pineapple, we can make paper and produce hygiene products, such as tissues and toilet paper. The technology is the same, but the yield of the fibers is different.”(索博连科正在制定拓展国际业务的计划。他解释道:“有些国家有大量的热带水果废弃物——比如菠萝和香蕉。我们发现,对于菠萝来说,我们可以将其制成纸张,并生产卫生用品,比如纸巾和卫生纸。技术是一样的,但纤维的产出量有所不同。”)”可知,未来 Releaf Paper 将扩充原材料来源并开拓全球市场。故选B。
C
In West Africa, particularly in Cameroon, Ivory Coast, and Togo, mental health remains a significant taboo and therapy (治疗) services are almost nonexistent. In this challenging environment, hairdressers have emerged as trusted community figures providing informal mental health support.
The Bluemind Foundation, an international non-governmental organization, whose constant message is “mental health is health” has created the Heal by Hair program. Through a three-day course, it trains over 400 hairdressers to act as “mental health ambassadors” by teaching them active listening skills and how to recognize signs of depression and gender-based violence. These hairdressers become first points of contact for customers facing mental health issues, offering comfort and guidance. They also refer customers to professionals or authorities when necessary, though many face financial (财政) and societal limits to formal care.
The program captures values of listening and support in everyday salon interactions, a communal space where women traditionally spend time. Already, over 150 hairdressers have been trained in countries like Togo, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon, and the initiative has reached over 100,000 women and plans to expand further across Africa. By 2035, Bluemind Foundation aims to train 1,000 hairdressers in 20 African cities, and to help improve the mental health of 2,000,000 African women.
The New York Times article highlights the significant impact of Heal By Hair. The project not only addresses the shame surrounding mental health but empowers women hairdressers to become recognized community leaders and emotional support figures, transforming their salons into safe spaces for discussion and healing, and making it a new cornerstone of mental health support. This grassroots approach highlights the importance of accessible mental health care solutions in regions with limited resources.
28. What does the underlined word “taboo” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. A pressing issue. B. A sex difference.
C. A deadly disease. D. A socially unacceptable topic.
29. Which of the following is a task of “mental health ambassadors”?
A. Teaching women good listening and oral skills.
B. Decorating their hair salons into a training room.
C. Offering aid to those showing signs of depression.
D. Financing those who can’t afford formal mental care.
30. How does the author present the program’s influence in paragraph 3?
A. By providing data. B. By giving examples.
C. By quoting an expert. D. By making comparisons.
31 What does The New York Times think of the Heal By Hair program?
A. It’s risk-free. B. It’s misleading. C. It’s short-lived. D. It’s pioneering.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了在西非心理健康一直是大家讳莫如深的话题,在这种环境下,理发师作为非正式心理健康服务的提供者出现。
【28题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词后的“therapy (治疗) services are almost nonexistent”和“In this challenging environment”可知,在这种充满挑战的环境下,心理健康治疗服务几乎不存在,说明心理健康是大家讳莫如深的话题,taboo意为“禁忌,忌讳”,与D项“一个不被社会接受的话题”意思一致。故选D。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“These hairdressers become first points of contact for customers facing mental health issues, offering comfort and guidance.(这些理发师成为了面临心理健康问题的顾客的首要接触者,为他们提供慰藉与指引。)”可知,心理健康大使是向那些表现出抑郁迹象的人提供帮助。故选C。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Already, over 150 hairdressers have been trained in countries like Togo, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon, and the initiative has reached over 100,000 women and plans to expand further across Africa. By 2035, Bluemind Foundation aims to train 1,000 hairdressers in 20 African cities, and to help improve the mental health of 2,000,000 African women.(在多哥、科特迪瓦和喀麦隆等国,已经有150多名理发师接受了培训,该倡议已惠及10多万名妇女,并计划在非洲进一步扩大。到2035年,Bluemind基金会打算在20个非洲城市培训1000名理发师,并帮助改善200万非洲妇女的心理健康。)”可知,在介绍该项目的影响时,列举了大量数据,由此可知,所用写作手法为提供数据。故填A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“The New York Times article highlights the significant impact of Heal By Hair. The project not only addresses the shame surrounding mental health but empowers women hairdressers to become recognized community leaders and emotional support figures, transforming their salons into safe spaces for discussion and healing, and making it a new cornerstone of mental health support.(《纽约时报》的文章强调了“通过头发疗愈”的重大影响。该项目不仅解决了围绕心理健康的耻辱,还使女性理发师成为公认的社区领袖和情感支持人物,将她们的沙龙转变为讨论和治疗的安全空间,并使其成为心理健康支持的新基石。)”可知,《纽约时报》认可“通过头发疗愈”项目的重大影响,该项目既妥善解决了人们对心理健康问题的羞耻感,又将女性理发师沙龙变成提供心理健康支持的安全空间,由此可推测出,《纽约时报》对其持有积极评价,认为这个项目采取的措施是具有先锋引领意义的。故选D。
D
As a region frequently affected by drought in Africa, the Sahel used to suffer from severe water shortages. But in recent decades, climate change and population growth have worsened the situation, with numerous communities lacking access to clean drinking water. This critical shortage led to widespread water-related diseases and even forced migration in some severely affected areas, with experts warning that traditional water sources might dry up within the coming years. That was where the innovative AquaSol initiative came in.
The AquaSol project, a program aimed at providing clean water in the Sahel, has celebrated the successful installation of 50 solar-powered water purification units (净水装置) this year. The newest station, named “Hope Spring” by local communities with its origin in a native proverb, symbolizes an optimistic future where clean water is no longer an impossible luxury but a daily reality.
Hope Spring represents a key part of the AquaSol initiative that brings together tech companies, non-profits, and international agencies in a mission to deal with water shortage using renewable energy. For the project, efficient solar panels (太阳能板) power advanced purification systems that clean groundwater, which is then safely stored in specialized tanks for community use. So far, Hope Spring has reliably provided safe water for over 40,000 people, with several villages already achieving self-sufficiency (自给自足) in water supply.
The Sahel’s selection as the main site is strategic, given its high solar energy potential and urgent water needs. Government policies that support green technology and local partnerships have created an ideal environment for such innovations. The success of these solar water stations points to a brighter future not only for water security but also for the application of clean energy in solving global issues. As Dr. Amina Diallo, the project leader, stated, “With practical models like AquaSol, we can extend similar solutions to other dry regions where people’s lives are threatened by water shortage.”
32. What is a result of the water shortage in Sahel?
A. Worsening climate. B. Increasing population.
C. The spread of illnesses. D. The replacement of water sources.
33. What is the main purpose of the AquaSol project?
A. To offer accessible clean water. B. To ensure enough water storage.
C. To research climate change effects. D. To better water purification units.
34. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How Hope Spring functions. B. What villagers think of the project.
C. The importance of clean groundwater. D. The effectiveness of solar panels.
35. What is the best title for the text?
A. Water Purification Units: A Fresh Hope
B. Hope Spring: A New Beginning
C. Solar power: A Bright Future of Energy
D. AquaSol: A Solution for Thirsty Lands
【答案】32. C 33. A 34. A 35. D

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。
With leaves covering the ground and cool air hinting at the colder days ahead, this season goes by two names: autumn and fall. But why do Americans tend to call it fall while the British prefer autumn? ____36____
Before “autumn” and “fall” became widespread, the season was often called “harvest”, reflecting the season’s main purpose. As society shifted from farm life to more city-centered living, the word “harvest” gradually lost its meaning as the name of the season and became more specifically associated with the act of gathering crops. ____37____.
The word “autumn” can be traced back to the Latin word “autumnus”, which originally meant “the season of early rains”. In ancient Rome, “autumnus” referred to the period of the year between summer and winter. ____38____. As the Roman Empire expanded, so did the usage of “autumnus” across Europe. As time went by, “autumn” gradually came to be widely used to describe the season.
____39____. In 16th-century England, expressions like “fall of the leaf” and “fall of the year” became common to describe the season when leaves dropped from trees. These phrases were eventually shortened to “fall”, a direct and visually clear term. When English settlers moved to the American colonies (殖民地) during the 17th century, they carried this term with them. ____40____. Meanwhile, “autumn” stayed the preferred term in England, valued for its smoother sound and its ties to ideas of life, change and decline.
Today, both words are used in the UK and the US. For Americans, “fall” is more common. In the UK, the opposite is true.
A. Because there are lots of leaves in both two countries.
B. The answer lies in a mix of history, language and culture.
C. In fact, “harvest” means gathering crops at the end of the growing cycle.
D. Compared with “autumn”, “fall” developed through a simpler shift in language.
E. Over time, “fall” became more popular in North America because it was easy to use.
F. It was a time of change as the leaves fell from the trees and the temperature dropped.
G. This change created space for “autumn” and “fall” to take over to describe the season.
【答案】36. B 37. G 38. F 39. D 40. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章解释了英美对秋天称“fall”和“autumn”的差异:旧称“harvest”因社会变迁停用,“autumn”源自拉丁语,“fall”源于英式短语缩写,后随移民传入美洲并流行,成因涉及历史、语言与文化。
【36题详解】
根据上文“With leaves covering the ground and cool air hinting at the colder days ahead, this season goes by two names: autumn and fall. But why do Americans tend to call it fall while the British prefer autumn?(落叶铺满地面,凉爽的空气预示着即将到来的寒冷天气,这个季节有两个名称:autumn和fall。但为什么美国人习惯称之为“fall”,而英国人则更倾向于称其为“autumn”呢?)”可知,前文提出核心疑问“为何美国人称秋天为 fall,英国人偏爱 autumn?”,需一个总起句回应“原因”。B选项“The answer lies in a mix of history, language and culture.”(答案在于历史、语言和文化的结合)直接承接前文疑问,引出后文对两个词汇起源的历史、语言背景介绍,逻辑衔接紧密。故选B。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Before “autumn” and “fall” became widespread, the season was often called “harvest”, reflecting the season’s main purpose. As society shifted from farm life to more city-centered living, the word “harvest” gradually lost its meaning as the name of the season and became more specifically associated with the act of gathering crops.(在“autumn”和“fall”广泛使用之前,这个季节常被称为 “harvest”(收获季),这反映了该季节的核心用途。随着社会从农耕生活转向以城市为中心的生活模式,“harvest”一词逐渐不再用作季节名称,而是更具体地指代收割庄稼的行为)”前文说明“harvest”原本指秋天,后因社会从农耕转向城市生活,“harvest”仅特指“收割庄稼”,不再作为季节名称。G选项“This change created space for “autumn” and “fall” to take over to describe the season.”(这一变化为“autumn”和“fall”接管对该季节的描述创造了空间)中的“this change”指代前文“harvest”语义的转变,自然引出后续两个词汇的登场,填补逻辑空白。故选G。
【38题详解】
根据上文“The word “autumn” can be traced back to the Latin word “autumnus”, which originally meant “the season of early rains”. In ancient Rome, “autumnus” referred to the period of the year between summer and winter.(“autumn”一词可追溯至拉丁语“autumnus”,其原意为“初雨季节”。在古罗马时期,“autumnus”指的是从夏季到冬季之间的这一段时间)”前文追溯“autumn”的词源(拉丁语“autumnus”,意为“早雨季节”),并说明古罗马时期指“夏冬之间的时期”。F选项“It was a time of change as the leaves fell from the trees and the temperature dropped.”(那是一个树叶飘落、气温下降的变化时期)进一步解释古罗马时期“autumnus”所指代的季节特征,与后文“autumn 逐渐被广泛用于描述该季节”形成呼应,丰富词源背景。故选F。
【39题详解】
根据后文“In 16th-century England, expressions like “fall of the leaf” and “fall of the year” became common to describe the season when leaves dropped from trees. These phrases were eventually shortened to “fall”, a direct and visually clear term. When English settlers moved to the American colonies (殖民地) during the 17th century, they carried this term with them.(16世纪的英国,“fall of the leaf”(落叶时节)和“fall of the year”(岁末之季)这类表达开始普遍用于描述树叶飘落的季节。这些短语最终被简化为“fall”,这一词汇直白形象、画面感极强。17世纪英国殖民者迁往美洲殖民地时,也将这一说法带到了当地)”以及前文已介绍 “autumn” 的起源,后文开始讲述“fall”的由来(16 世纪英国“fall of the leaf” 等短语缩写而来)。D选项“Compared with “autumn”, “fall” developed through a simpler shift in language.”(与“autumn”相比,“fall” 的演变源于更简单的语言变化)起到承上启下的作用,既对比了两个词汇的演变差异,又引出后文对 “fall” 语言演变过程的具体说明。故选D。
【40题详解】
根据上文“When English settlers moved to the American colonies (殖民地) during the 17th century, they carried this term with them.(17世纪英国殖民者迁往美洲殖民地时,也将这一说法带到了当地)”可知,前文17 世纪英国移民将“fall”带到美洲殖民地。后文对比“autumn”在英国仍受偏爱。E选项“Over time, “fall” became more popular in North America because it was easy to use.”(随着时间推移,“fall” 因使用简便在北美更受欢迎)承接前文“移民带去该词汇”,解释其在美洲流行的原因,与后文英国的情况形成对比,逻辑连贯。故选E。

【答案】Frightened
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意:看到眼前的场景,他吓得僵在原地。句子谓语为was frozen,空处为非谓语动词作状语,动词frighten与逻辑主语he之间为被动关系,应用其过去分词形式frightened,句首单词首字母需大写。故填Frightened。

【答案】awareness
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:这位作家的书提高了人们对污染危害的意识。people’s (aware) of the dangers of pollution名词所有格结构,故设空处应填名词作宾语。aware的名词形式是awareness,不可数名词。故填awareness。

【答案】regularly
【解析】
【详解】考查副词。句意:为了保护视力,定期检查眼睛是重要的。空处作状语,修饰动词短语have your eyes checked,应用regular的副词形式regularly,意为“定期地,经常地”。故填regularly。

64. 老师激励着我,我下定决心要提高我的成绩。
With my teacher ________ I made up my mind to improve my grade.
【答案】inspiring/encouraging/motivating/stimulating me
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。表示“激励”应用动词inspire/encourage/motivate/stimulate,且此处为with的复合结构“with+宾语+宾补”,my teacher和inspire/encourage/motivate/stimulate为主动关系,应用现在分词,作宾补。表示“我”用me作inspiring/encouraging/motivating/stimulating的宾语。故填inspiring/encouraging/motivating/stimulating me。
65. 志愿者工作可以对当地社区和个人成长产生影响。
Volunteer work can ________ local communities and personal growth.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Cold wind brushed against Leo’s cheeks as he hurried down the snowy sidewalk. His duty at the grocery store had ended late and he had skipped dinner just to clean up the mess in aisle (过道) four.
The streets were quiet, and the bus stop ahead looked like a tiny island in the dark. As Leo got closer, he saw the red taillights of the last bus pulling away. “No!” he shouted, breaking into a run. But it was too late.
Leo stood there for a moment, breathing hard, watching the bus disappear down the street. His phone was dead, his gloves were too thin and he had no money for a taxi. The walk home would take at least an hour, and the snow was starting to fall again. Leo sat down on the cold bench, rubbing his hands together and trying not to feel too sorry for himself.
Across the street, a small cafe still had its lights on. A sign in the window said “Open Late”, and warm yellow light spilled out onto the sidewalk. Leo hesitated. He didn’t want to spend money he didn’t have, but he also didn’t want to freeze. Finally, he crossed the street and pushed open the door.
Inside, it smelled like cinnamon and hot chocolate. The woman behind the counter looked up and gave him a kind smile. “Long night?” she asked. Leo nodded and told her about the missed bus. “Well, sit down and warm up,” she said, already pouring a drink. “This is free.”
Leo held the warm mug between his hands and took small sips (一小口), letting the heat return to his body. The cafe was quiet except for soft jazz playing in the background. The woman brought him a plate of cookies.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为100左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Embarrassed, Leo refused to take them.

【答案】例文
Embarrassed, Leo refused to take them. Hungry as he was, Leo shook his head and had to admit that he had no money to pay for the plate of cookies. “Take them,” she said gently, placing the plate before him. “Everyone needs a little kindness sometimes.” Deeply moved by her kindness, he finally tasted a cookie, its sweetness seeming to melt the lingering chill in his heart. As he ate, they chatted briefly about work, snowy nights, and small acts of compassion. Before stepping back into the cold, Leo bowed deeply, vowing to repay this city’s hidden kindness one day. What started as a cold night and an empty stomach has transformed into a warm-hearted and beautiful memory.
