You might be wondering why we would celebrate something that seems so strange. But we believe that bad art brings out a different kind of beauty. I’m sure it will surprise you. At first, the co-founder, an art dealer named Scott Wilson, found a painting next to a garbage can and saved it. Then he put it on a special exhibition with some other unfavorable paintings. Unexpectedly, it became a huge hit. So, this museum is a reminder that creativity knows no limits, and that even the least liked pieces can move us deeply. As you journey through our collection, you will see pieces that challenge your traditional opinions of what art should be. Paintings featuring odd figures, strange colors, and unique subjects will catch your eye. The other co-founder of the museum, Marie Jackson, said it was built to celebrate an artist’s right to fail. At the Museum of Bad Art, beautiful mistakes become unforgettable masterpieces. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Amazing science- inspired tours Join us in amazing science- inspired tours across the globe with experts on board and in the company of fellow travelers who enjoy the discovery of science.

He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence. Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, an exhibition with judges, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. However, being refused became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University, stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin considered him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first show with judges was last spring, and five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled “Pokemon”. As Nalin is busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 24. What do we know about Nalin? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 25. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their works. B. To form the association between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 26. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Unpromising. B. Short-lived. C. Thought-provoking. D. Groundbreaking. 27. What kind of person is Nalin according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了15岁的多伦多青少年纳林•卡马特因为年龄限制而无法参加评审展览而受挫，但这激发了他为更多年轻艺术家提供作品展示机会的决心并且在父母的支持下，他创办了Little EGG Gallery的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence. (他已经在当地的一家艺术中心举办了第一次展览，展示了他题为《性格》的系列作品，该系列作品展示了他自己在青春期的成长。)”和第二段“Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, an exhibition with judges, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. (然而，他想要的更多——具体来说，是开始在一个评审展览中展示他的作品，在那里，一群艺术专家将在一个竞争性的评审过程中评估和选择作品。就在那时，他遇到了一个障碍，在一份多页申请表的最后一行发现提交作品的最低年龄是18岁。)”可知，纳林•卡马特因为年龄没有达到18岁而没有参加评审展览的资格。故选C。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的““I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. (“我想，如果我能为更多的年轻艺术家提供机会，那就太棒了，”现年15岁的纳林说。在父母的支持下，纳林于2023年1月租了一个店面，并创办了Little EGG Gallery,现在这家画廊通过向展示的作品收取小额展示费，已经足够盈利来维持生计了。)”可推知，纳林创办Little EGG Gallery是为了给年轻艺术家提供一个展示才华的舞台。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Griffin considered him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world. ”(格里芬认为他是个特别的人：“一个很有想法的年轻艺术家——创造一个展示年轻人天赋的空间。这在艺术界是一个空白。”)”可推知，纳林的想法在艺术界是一个空白，所以是开创性的。故选D。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第二段中的“Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University, stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin considered him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world. ”(开业后不久，安大略艺术与设计大学教授兼艺术家大卫•格里芬走进画廊，见到了纳林。格里芬认为他是个特别的人：“一个很有想法的年轻艺术家——创造一个展示年轻人天赋的空间。这在艺术界是一个空白。””)”可知，纳林•卡马特在13岁时就举办了自己的画展，并且因为无法参加评审展览而创办了Little EGG Gallery，展示年轻艺术家的作品，结合安大略艺术与设计大学教授兼艺术家大卫•格里芬的评价可知，他是一个有创造力和奉献精神的人。故选B。 C When it comes to leading, self-identity matters. Research has shown that seeing yourself as a leader is an important first step on the path toward becoming one — and reluctance (不情愿) to be identified as a leader can keep capable people from taking on leadership responsibilities. So, why are people so often uncomfortable with thinking of themselves as leaders? To explore this question, we conducted a series of studies with more than 1,700 participants, and we consistently found that the more people worried about the reputational risks of being a leader, the less likely they were to be identified as one. Specifically, we identified three common reputational fears: fear of seeming bossy, fear of seeming different and fear of seeming unqualified. Many participants expressed concern about being seen as autocratic (专横的), bossy or domineering if they were to take on a leadership role. As one interviewee put it, “I wouldn’t want to seem pushy, or that I take advantage of weak people. I wouldn’t want to seem cold.” Interestingly, while much has been written on the use of negative words like “bossy” to describe female leaders, we found that in our studies, men and women were both afraid of coming across in this manner. The second common concern was that acting as a leader would result in being singled out and receiving too much attention for being different from others — even if that attention was positive. One participant explained, “I don’t want to be looked up to. I am comfortable leading, but at the same time I want to be on the same level as everyone else. “Many people worry that if they become leaders, they will have to sacrifice their sense of belonging within the group. Regardless of whether they actually saw themselves as qualified many participants said that they were afraid that others would view them as unfit for leadership. As one shared, “I know people often associate certain typical images with leadership roles, so that makes me somewhat uncomfortable. I worry that if I try to pursue leadership in my field, people will not take me seriously.” 28. What does the underlined word “domineering” mean in paragraph 2? A. Being proud of oneself. B. Not considering others’ opinions. C. Speaking ill of other employees. D. Taking advantage of weak people. 29. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. Fear of seeming bossy only fits with female leadership. B. Both male and female worry about being seen as bossy. C. Leaders should not care about what others think of them. D. Female leaders are often described in negative-words. 30. What is people’s concern to be different? A. Getting less attention from others. B. Being talked about by others. C. Being on the same level as others. D. Lacking sense of belonging to a team. 31. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain what reputational fears are. B. To encourage people to be leaders. C. To complain about the leaders in our life. D. To explain people’s reluctance to be leaders. 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章围绕“人们为何常常不愿将自己视为领导者”的问题展开探讨，通过一系列研究结果来分析和阐述造成这种现象的原因，包括三种常见的声誉担忧。 【28题详解】 词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“Many participants expressed concern about being seen as autocratic(专横的), bossy or domineering if they were to take on a leadership role.(许多参与者表示，如果他们要担任领导角色，就会担心被视为独裁者、专横者或……)”中的“autocratic(专横的), bossy”可推测，划线单词应该也是负面的评价，且和这两个单词意思相似。而“autocratic(专横的), bossy”都和“以自我中心，不考虑别人”相关。选项A“Being proud of oneself (为自己感到骄傲)”；选项B“Not considering others’ opinions (不考虑别人的意见)”；选项C“Speaking ill of other employees (说其他员工的坏话)”；选项D“Taking advantage of weak people (利用弱小的人)”。故选B。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Interestingly, while much has been written on the use of negative words like “bossy” to describe female leaders, we found that in our studies, men and women were both afraid of coming across in this manner.(有趣的是，尽管有很多文章都在讨论用‘专横’等负面词汇来描述女性领导者，但我们的研究发现，男性和女性都害怕给人留下这样的印象。)”可知，男性和女性都担心被视为专横。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The second common concern was that acting as a leader would result in being singled out and receiving too much attention for being different from others—even if that attention was positive. One participant explained, “I don’t want to be looked up to. I am comfortable leading, but at the same time I want to be on the same level as everyone else. “Many people worry that if they become leaders, they will have to sacrifice their sense of belonging within the group.(第二个常见的担忧是，作为领导者会让自己被单独挑出来，因与众不同而受到过多关注——即使这种关注是正面的。一位参与者解释道：“我不想被仰望。我喜欢领导，但同时我也想和大家处于同一水平线上。”许多人担心，如果他们成为领导者，就必须牺牲自己在群体中的归属感。)”可知，人们对与众不同的担忧是“牺牲自己在群体中的归属感”，即“缺乏团队归属感”。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“So, why are people so often uncomfortable with thinking of themselves as leaders? To explore this question, we conducted a series of studies with more than 1, 700 participants, and we consistently found that the more people worried about the reputational risks of being a leader, the less likely they were to be identified as one. Specifically, we identified three common reputational fears: fear of seeming bossy, fear of seeming different and fear of seeming unqualified.(那么，为什么人们常常不愿将自己视为领导者呢？为了探究这个问题，我们对1700多名参与者进行了一系列研究，并始终发现，人们对成为领导者可能带来的声誉风险越担忧，他们就越不可能被认定为领导者。具体而言，我们确定了三种常见的声誉担忧：担心显得专横、担心显得与众不同以及担心显得不胜任。)”以及全文内容可知，文章详细解释了人们不愿意成为领导者的三个声誉恐惧的原因，所以整篇文章都在解释人们不愿意成为领导者的原因。故选D。 D Violence is a central concept for describing social relationships among humans, a concept loaded with ethical and political significance. Verbal violence, most often also labeled verbal abuse, is a common variety of violence, which contains a relatively large range. of behaviors, including accusing, undermining, verbal threatening, ordering, trivializing (轻视), constant forgetting, silencing, name-calling, open criticizing. It is compatible (共存的) with other forms of violence, including physical violence and psychological violence. For instance, in most bullying behaviors we do find all three kinds of violence (and verbal violence seems to be the most essential form of violence to bullying — you can have no bullying without verbal threat.) As with psychological violence, the question is posed of what sorts of reactions may be regarded as legitimate (合法的) with respect to verbal violence. Does a verbal threat give someone the leeway (余地) to respond with physical violence? We do find two quite distinct camps here: according to some, no act of verbal violence may justify a physically violent reaction; according to another camp, instead, verbally violent behavior may be as damaging, if not more damaging, than physically violent behaviors. On the other hand, verbal violence may be sometimes seen also as a form of liberation for the most oppressed. The exercise of humor may be in some cases involved with some forms of verbal violence: from politically incorrect jokes to simple mocking, humor may seem a manner to exercise violence over other people. At the same time, humor is amongst the most gentle tools for social protests, as it requires no special wealth and probably causes no physical damage and need not cause great psychological distress. The exercise of verbal violence perhaps more than any other forms of violence, requires a continuous check on the part of the speaker of the reactions to their words: humans almost invariably end up exercising violence over each other; it is only by educating ourselves to try and keep from behaviors that our acquaintances do find violent that we may be able to live peacefully. 32. Which of the following is true about verbal violence according to the first paragraph? A. It is not related to ethical or political issues. B. It only includes name-calling and public criticism. C. It can be found in most bullying behaviors. D. It is not compatible with other forms of violence. 33. What can we know from the first two paragraphs? A. Legitimate response to verbal violence is of major concern. B. Act of verbal violence justifies and authorizes a physical reaction. C. Verbal violence is undoubtedly as destructive as physical violence. D. Verbal violence has no essential difference with psychological violence. 34. Why is humor regarded as one of the gentlest tools for social protests? A. Because the poor can also use humor for social protests. B. Because it will not cost the interests of the protester. C. Because it is more acceptable than other forms of violence. D. Because it will only result in mild consequences. 35. What does this passage mainly talk about? A. How to respond to verbal violence properly. B. Explaining what verbal violence is. C. How to correctly view verbal violence. D. The different types of verbal violence. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕“言语暴力”这一主题展开，探讨言语暴力作为暴力形式之一，其定义、合法性争议及对个人和社会的影响。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“For instance, in most bullying behaviors we do find all three kinds of violence(and verbal violence seems to be the most essential form of violence to bullying—you can have no bullying without verbal threat.)(例如，在大多数欺凌行为中，我们确实发现了这三种暴力形式（言语暴力似乎是欺凌行为中最基本的暴力形式——没有言语威胁就不可能有欺凌）)”可知，言语暴力可以在大多数欺凌行为中找到。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第二段“As with psychological violence, the question is posed of what sorts of reactions may be regarded as legitimate(合法的)with respect to verbal violence. Does a verbal threat give someone the leeway(余地)to respond with physical violence? We do find two quite distinct camps here: according to some, no act of verbal violence may justify a physically violent reaction; according to another camp, instead, verbally violent behavior may be as damaging, if not more damaging, than physically violent behaviors.(就像心理暴力一样，问题在于对于言语暴力，什么样的反应可以被视为合法的。言语威胁是否给了某人以身体暴力回应的余地？在这里，我们确实发现了两个截然不同的阵营：一些人认为，任何言语暴力行为都不能成为身体暴力反应的正当理由；而另一个阵营则认为，言语暴力行为如果不比身体暴力行为更具破坏性，那么也至少同样具有破坏性。)”可知，对言语暴力的合法回应是文章的一个主要关注点。故选A。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“At the same time, humor is amongst the most gentle tools for social protests, as it requires no special wealth and probably causes no physical damage and need not cause great psychological distress.(同时，幽默是社会抗议中最温和的工具之一，因为它不需要特别的财富，可能不会造成身体伤害，也不一定会造成巨大的心理困扰。)”可知，幽默不需要特别的财富，可能不会造成身体伤害，也不一定会造成巨大的心理困扰，也就是说幽默不会损害抗议者的自身利益。故选B。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章内容可知，文章第一段主要介绍了言语暴力的定义和表现形式；第二段讨论了对于言语暴力，什么样的反应可以被视为合法的；第三段则讨论了言语暴力在不同情境下可能产生的不同影响，并强调了对于言语暴力的实施，需要说话者不断检查其言语对他人的反应。整体来看，文章并不是在单纯地解释什么是言语暴力或列举其类型，而是在探讨如何正确地看待和处理言语暴力这一问题。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Take a Thought Walk Have you ever considered when you get your best ideas? Or what you’re doing when the solution to a problem pops into your head? ____36____ But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes. The best ideas can land when you least expect them — but there are things you can do to help them along, and that’s where walking comes in. Even a quick walk can reduce stress, clarify thinking or give your creativity a boost. Here’s why you should put your best foot forward. ____37____ Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress. “My mum loves walking, so it was her who first suggested I go out for a walk,” she remembers. “Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.” The benefit of walking goes beyond calming — it opens mental capacity. Gillian Mills, a high school teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, explains, “When students feel too stressed to think straight, we often suggest a walk outside. ____38____ Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds. Walking and taking big breaths of fresh air are like gently letting the pressure out...” ____39____ It holds partial focus, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. Whether you’re revising for an exam, feeling stuck on a school project or working through a friendship problem, going for a walk could help. Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking. ____40____ This suggests that it increases what the experts call “divergent thinking” — the process where the mind generates a wide range of possible ideas or solutions to a problem. A. It helps clear your head for new thoughts. B. Many experts believe walking improves mental health. C. Some people find their best ideas come when relaxing quietly. D. Critically, walking occupies just enough attention, but not all. E. Evidence for walking’s calming power comes from lived experience. F. It might be sitting at your desk in school or working at a computer. G. Participants in a study increased their brainstorming by 60% during/after walks. 【答案】36. F 37. E 38. A 39. D 40. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，主要探讨散步如何激发创造性思维、缓解压力并提升问题解决能力，通过科学依据和真实案例说明步行对个人心智发展的积极影响。 【36题详解】 由上文“Or what you’re doing when the solution to a problem pops into your head?(那么，当你突然想到解决问题的办法时，你正在做些什么呢？)”和下文“But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes.(但它也可能在做其他的事情，比如洗澡或者洗碗)”可知，此处需要回答前面的问题并与后文对应，F选项“它可能就坐在你学校的课桌上，或者正坐在电脑前工作呢”在此处串联上下文。故选F。 【37题详解】 根据后文“Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress. “My mum loves walking, so it was her who first suggested I go out for a walk,” she remembers. “Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.”(米歇尔，一位 21 岁的大学生，在青少年时期因经历了一段压力较大的时期而开始喜欢上散步。她回忆道：“我妈妈喜欢散步，所以是她最先建议我出去走走的。大约 10 分钟后，我感觉好多了。”)”可知，此处应是本段总起句，强调走路的缓解焦虑作用，E选项“步行具有镇静作用的证据来自于个人的亲身经历”起到了统领本段内容的作用。故选E。 【38题详解】 由上文“The benefit of walking goes beyond calming — it opens mental capacity. Gillian Mills, a high school teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, explains, “When students feel too stressed to think straight, we often suggest a walk outside.(步行带来的益处远不止能让人放松——它还能提升思维能力。拥有 20 年教学经验的高中教师吉莉安·米尔斯解释道：“当学生们感到压力过大而无法清晰思考时，我们通常会建议他们出去走走。”)”和下文气球比喻“Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds.(想象一下压力就像一个气球在不断膨胀。它不断充气，压力也随之增大)”可知，此处强调散步帮助释放压力，理清思路的作用，A选项“它有助于让你的头脑清醒，从而产生新的想法”符合语境。故选A。 【39题详解】 由后文“It holds partial focus, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. Whether you’re revising for an exam, feeling stuck on a school project or working through a friendship problem, going for a walk could help.(它能让你部分集中注意力，使你能够留意周围环境，同时让思绪在新的方向上自由驰骋。无论是为考试复习、在学业上遇到瓶颈还是解决友谊问题，出去散步或许会有所帮助)”可知，此段突出的是散步分散部分注意力，有帮于产生新想法的作用，D选项“重要的是，步行所占用的注意力恰到好处，但又并非过多”符合语境。故选D。 【40题详解】 由上文“Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking.(斯坦福大学证实了这一现象。他们发现步行与创造性思维之间存在着明确的关联)”和下文“This suggests that it increases what the experts call “divergent thinking” — the process where the mind generates a wide range of possible ideas or solutions to a problem.(这表明，它能够增强专家们所说的“发散性思维”——即大脑在处理问题时能够产生大量可能的想法或解决方案的过程)”可知，此处需具体说明散步对创造性思维的作用，选项G“在一项研究中，参与者在散步期间/之后的头脑风暴次数增加了60%”中的“brainstorming”与下文的“divergent thinking”(发散思维)同义，直接对应研究发现。故选G。 三、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。 I was 11 when I asked my mum for piano lessons.

That was the point when I realized I wasn’t behind everyone else. I am now at the Guildhall School in London, where I was offered a scholarship. I feel _____53_____: it’s been 10 years since I drew my paper piano and I'm at one of the world’s _____54_____ conservatoires. The irony is that I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano: what we call mental practice. It unlocks key areas of the mind that are less readily accessed by piano playing alone. The paper piano helped stimulate my _____55_____ about how music works. 41. A. annoy B. bother C. embarrass D. discourage 42. A. take B. sign C. click D. compose 43.

In its being fashionable again, kids collect cards cut from cigarette packs and compete in ____61____ game by slapping them on the ground, trying to flip over their opponents’ cards.

I believe that a journalist should be completely __________(object). (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】objective 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意：我认为记者应该完全客观。形容词objective，意为“客观的”作表语。故填objective。 67. This cellphone is ________ (fashion) and easy to carry, and it is popular among the young people. （所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】fashionable 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意：这款手机很时尚，携带方便，在年轻人中很受欢迎。表示“时尚的”应用形容词fashionable作表语。故填fashionable。 68. ________(occupy) in looking after three children at home, she no longer has time to enjoy the various activities in the club.（所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】Occupied 【解析】 【详解】考查形容词。句意：她在家照顾三个孩子，再也没有时间享受俱乐部里的各种活动。be occupied in固定搭配，意为“忙于……”，所以此处应用形容词occupied作状语，单词位于句首，首字母大写，故填Occupied。 69. A wind danced through the fields, ________ (gentle) touching each blade of grass as if playing a soft melody on nature’s canvas.(所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】gently 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：一阵风在田野中舞动，轻柔地拂过每一根草叶，仿佛在自然的画布上弹奏着一首轻柔的旋律。本空修饰动词touching，作状语，用副词gently“轻柔地”。故填gently。 70. Swimming is a powerful way ________ (relieve) stress and promote your sleep. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】to relieve 【解析】 【详解】考查动词不定式。句意：游泳是缓解压力、促进睡眠的有效方式。“relieve”意为“缓解；减轻”，此处为固定结构“a way to do sth.”，不定式“to relieve”作后置定语，修饰名词“way”，表示“做某事的方式”。故填to relieve。 71. We finally managed to make the customers _____________(convince) of the quality of the vehicle. (所给词的适当形式填空） 【答案】convinced 【解析】 【分析】 【详解】考查过去分词。句意：我们最后设法使客户信服了这辆车的质量。根据句中宾语 the customers 与convince之间是被动关系，可知此处要用过去分词，表示顾客是被信服的。故填convinced。 【点睛】 72. After ________ (persuade) to change her mind about the proposal, she agreed to present it during the next meeting. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】being persuaded 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在被说服改变对该提案的想法后，她同意在下次会议上呈现它。介词“after”后需接动名词作宾语；主语“she”与“persuade”之间是被动关系即“她被他人说服”，需用动名词的被动形式being persuaded。故填being persuaded。 73. ________ (incredible), no one had ever thought of such a simple idea before. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】Incredibly 【解析】 【详解】考查副词。句意：令人难以置信的是，以前从来没有人想到过这样一个简单的想法。本空修饰句子，作状语，用副词incredibly“令人难以置信地”，且位于句首，首字母大写。故填Incredibly。 74. He lost his parents at a young age, but fortunately he ________ (adopt) by a respectable family. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】was adopted 【解析】 【详解】考查动词时态和被动语态。句意：他年幼时失去了父母，但幸运的是，他被一个可敬的家庭收养了。前一句“lost”用一般过去时，描述过去发生的事情；后一句“收养”是同时期的过去动作，需用一般过去时；主语“he”与“adopt”之间是被动关系，所以此处用一般过去时的被动语态，且主语为第三人称单数，所以谓语动词为was adopted。故填was adopted。 75. She spent the morning ________ (stretch) out her muscles before starting her work. (所给词的适当形式填空) 【答案】stretching 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在开始工作前，她花了一上午的时间伸展肌肉。本句谓语为spent，此处为非谓语动词，且she与stretch“伸展”为主动关系，spend time (in) doing sth.为固定搭配，表示“花费时间做某事”，所以应用动名词stretching，作宾语。故填stretching。 六、书面表达（25分） 76. 假定你是李华，你校上周组织了研学之旅——参观了当地的一个自然保护区。请就此活动给报社写一篇英文报道， 内容包括： 1. 活动情况； 2. 活动反响 ★注意： 1. 词数不少于100； 2. 可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯。 _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Version 1 Last week, our school organized a visit to a local nature reserve, an unforgettable experience for all of us.

He had already had his first show at a local art center, showcasing his series titled “Dispositions”, which illustrated his own growth during adolescence. Yet he wanted more — specifically to start showing his work in a juried exhibition, an exhibition with judges, where a group of art experts would evaluate and select pieces in a competitive review process. That’s when he hit an obstacle, discovering in the very last line of a multi-page application that the minimum age for submission was 18. However, being refused became a motivation for creation. “I thought it’d be really cool if I could provide the opportunity to more young artists,” says Nalin, now 15. With the support of his parents, in January 2023, Nalin rented a storefront and founded Little EGG Gallery, which is now profitable enough to make ends meet by charging a small hanging fee for any displayed work. In turn, Little EGG helps promote young talent by showcasing their work. Not long after opening, David Griffin, a professor and artist of Ontario College of Art and Design University, stepped into the gallery and met Nalin. Griffin considered him as someone special: “a strong young artist with a really excellent idea — creating a space for showing the natural genius of young people. It was a void (空白) in the art world.” There Nalin asked Griffin to help judge an upcoming competition. The first show with judges was last spring, and five-year-old Jack Gamble won for his abstract painting titled “Pokemon”. As Nalin is busy with school, life and his own art, Little EGG is mostly open by appointment only, but he’s still committed to growing it with seasonal and themed shows scheduled a few times a year. 24. What do we know about Nalin? A. He drew teenagers’ growth in his work. B. He became a working artist when aged 13. C. He was disqualified for a juried exhibition. D. He showed his series at the capital art center. 25. Why did Nalin decide to set up Little EGG Gallery? A. To promote artists by showcasing their works. B. To form the association between different galleries. C. To expand his own business through themed shows. D. To show young artists’ talent by offering them a stage. 26. Which of the following can best describe Nalin’s idea of opening the gallery? A. Unpromising. B. Short-lived. C. Thought-provoking. D. Groundbreaking. 27. What kind of person is Nalin according to the text? A. Helpful and cautious. B. Devoted and creative. C. Humorous and intelligent. D. Knowledgeable and ambitious. C When it comes to leading, self-identity matters. Research has shown that seeing yourself as a leader is an important first step on the path toward becoming one — and reluctance (不情愿) to be identified as a leader can keep capable people from taking on leadership responsibilities. So, why are people so often uncomfortable with thinking of themselves as leaders? To explore this question, we conducted a series of studies with more than 1,700 participants, and we consistently found that the more people worried about the reputational risks of being a leader, the less likely they were to be identified as one. Specifically, we identified three common reputational fears: fear of seeming bossy, fear of seeming different and fear of seeming unqualified. Many participants expressed concern about being seen as autocratic (专横的), bossy or domineering if they were to take on a leadership role. As one interviewee put it, “I wouldn’t want to seem pushy, or that I take advantage of weak people. I wouldn’t want to seem cold.” Interestingly, while much has been written on the use of negative words like “bossy” to describe female leaders, we found that in our studies, men and women were both afraid of coming across in this manner. The second common concern was that acting as a leader would result in being singled out and receiving too much attention for being different from others — even if that attention was positive. One participant explained, “I don’t want to be looked up to. I am comfortable leading, but at the same time I want to be on the same level as everyone else. “Many people worry that if they become leaders, they will have to sacrifice their sense of belonging within the group. Regardless of whether they actually saw themselves as qualified, many participants said that they were afraid that others would view them as unfit for leadership. As one shared, “I know people often associate certain typical images with leadership roles, so that makes me somewhat uncomfortable. I worry that if I try to pursue leadership in my field, people will not take me seriously.” 28. What does the underlined word “domineering” mean in paragraph 2? A. Being proud of oneself. B. Not considering others’ opinions. C. Speaking ill of other employees. D. Taking advantage of weak people. 29. What can we learn from paragraph 2? A. Fear of seeming bossy only fits with female leadership. B. Both male and female worry about being seen as bossy. C. Leaders should not care about what others think of them. D. Female leaders are often described in negative-words. 30. What is people’s concern to be different? A. Getting less attention from others. B. Being talked about by others. C. Being on the same level as others. D. Lacking sense of belonging to a team. 31. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain what reputational fears are. B. To encourage people to be leaders. C. To complain about the leaders in our life. D. To explain people’s reluctance to be leaders. D Violence is a central concept for describing social relationships among humans, a concept loaded with ethical and political significance. Verbal violence, most often also labeled verbal abuse, is a common variety of violence, which contains a relatively large range. of behaviors, including accusing, undermining, verbal threatening, ordering, trivializing (轻视), constant forgetting, silencing, name-calling, open criticizing. It is compatible (共存的) with other forms of violence, including physical violence and psychological violence. For instance, in most bullying behaviors we do find all three kinds of violence (and verbal violence seems to be the most essential form of violence to bullying — you can have no bullying without verbal threat.) As with psychological violence, the question is posed of what sorts of reactions may be regarded as legitimate (合法的) with respect to verbal violence. Does a verbal threat give someone the leeway (余地) to respond with physical violence? We do find two quite distinct camps here: according to some, no act of verbal violence may justify a physically violent reaction; according to another camp, instead, verbally violent behavior may be as damaging, if not more damaging, than physically violent behaviors. On the other hand, verbal violence may be sometimes seen also as a form of liberation for the most oppressed. The exercise of humor may be in some cases involved with some forms of verbal violence: from politically incorrect jokes to simple mocking, humor may seem a manner to exercise violence over other people. At the same time, humor is amongst the most gentle tools for social protests, as it requires no special wealth and probably causes no physical damage and need not cause great psychological distress. The exercise of verbal violence, perhaps more than any other forms of violence, requires a continuous check on the part of the speaker of the reactions to their words: humans almost invariably end up exercising violence over each other; it is only by educating ourselves to try and keep from behaviors that our acquaintances do find violent that we may be able to live peacefully. 32. Which of the following is true about verbal violence according to the first paragraph? A. It is not related to ethical or political issues. B. It only includes name-calling and public criticism. C. It can be found in most bullying behaviors. D. It is not compatible with other forms of violence. 33. What can we know from the first two paragraphs? A. Legitimate response to verbal violence is of major concern. B. Act of verbal violence justifies and authorizes a physical reaction. C. Verbal violence is undoubtedly as destructive as physical violence. D. Verbal violence has no essential difference with psychological violence. 34. Why is humor regarded as one of the gentlest tools for social protests? A. Because the poor can also use humor for social protests. B. Because it will not cost the interests of the protester. C. Because it is more acceptable than other forms of violence. D. Because it will only result in mild consequences. 35. What does this passage mainly talk about? A. How to respond to verbal violence properly. B. Explaining what verbal violence is. C. How to correctly view verbal violence. D. The different types of verbal violence. 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。 Take a Thought Walk Have you ever considered when you get your best ideas? Or what you’re doing when the solution to a problem pops into your head? ____36____ But it could also be doing something unrelated, like taking a shower or washing the dishes. The best ideas can land when you least expect them — but there are things you can do to help them along, and that’s where walking comes in. Even a quick walk can reduce stress, clarify thinking or give your creativity a boost. Here’s why you should put your best foot forward. ____37____ Michelle, a 21-year-old university student, discovered walking as a teen when she was going through a tough period of stress. “My mum loves walking, so it was her who first suggested I go out for a walk,” she remembers. “Within about 10 minutes it made me feel so much better.” The benefit of walking goes beyond calming — it opens mental capacity. Gillian Mills, a high school teacher with 20 years of classroom experience, explains, “When students feel too stressed to think straight, we often suggest a walk outside. ____38____ Just picture stress like a balloon blowing up. It fills with air and pressure builds. Walking and taking big breaths of fresh air are like gently letting the pressure out...” ____39____ It holds partial focus, letting you notice your surroundings while your mind wanders in new directions. Whether you’re revising for an exam, feeling stuck on a school project or working through a friendship problem, going for a walk could help. Stanford University confirms this effect. They found a clear link between walking and creative thinking. ____40____ This suggests that it increases what the experts call “divergent thinking” — the process where the mind generates a wide range of possible ideas or solutions to a problem. A. It helps clear your head for new thoughts. B. Many experts believe walking improves mental health. C. Some people find their best ideas come when relaxing quietly. D. Critically, walking occupies just enough attention, but not all. E. Evidence for walking’s calming power comes from lived experience. F. It might be sitting at your desk in school or working at a computer. G Participants in a study increased their brainstorming by 60% during/after walks. 三、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。 I was 11 when I asked my mum for piano lessons. We were in an economic crisis and she’d recently been laid off. She said a polite “no”. That didn’t ____41____ me. I drew a keyboard onto a piece of paper and stuck it on my desk. I would ____42____ notes on an online keyboard and “play” them back on my paper one — keeping the sound they made on the computer in my head. I spent six months playing without ____43____ a real piano. As my mum found I was ____44____ about it, she bought me 10 lessons with borrowed money. I still remember the first one. I was ____45____ by how organic the sound of the piano was, as I had become familiar with the ____46____ electronic sound. The teacher was trying to explain where middle C was, but I could ____47____ play all the major and minor scales. I sat my grade one after eight lessons and got distinction. By the time I started secondary school, we couldn’t ____48____ lessons again, so I returned to my paper keyboard. I passed grade three, then grade five, practising only on my piece of paper. For the grades above that, there was an expectation that you add a certain sensitivity into your playing. The music teacher at my school said I could practise on the school’s grand piano. I would wake up at 5:30 am to get there in time and play until lessons started. I’d ____49____ lunch and then practise after school until the caretaker kicked me out. At home, I’d have dinner, do three hours of revision, and then _____50_____ practice until 1:00 am. My school didn’t offer music A-level. I found the Purcell School for young musicians. The audition (试镜)was extremely challenging and I felt overwhelmed. To my amazement, I was offered a _____51_____. I had been told I had started playing too _____52_____ to reach conservatoire (音乐学院)level but when I left Purcell, I was awarded the senior piano prize. That was the point when I realized I wasn’t behind everyone else. I am now at the Guildhall School in London, where I was offered a scholarship. I feel _____53_____: it’s been 10 years since I drew my paper piano and I'm at one of the world’s _____54_____ conservatoires. The irony is that I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano: what we call mental practice. It unlocks key areas of the mind that are less readily accessed by piano playing alone. The paper piano helped stimulate my _____55_____ about how music works. 41. A. annoy B. bother C. embarrass D. discourage 42. A. take B. sign C. click D. compose 43.
