【答案】6. B 7. A 8. B 9. A
【解析】
【原文】W: Hello, Tom. How are you finding teaching here?
M: I get the feeling that the school is old but successful. The buildings and equipment are all so old, but amazingly, the students seem happy. The school pays attention to the all-round development of students. It seems to offer a whole range of subjects, not just English and maths.
W: I think that’s good because our school can bring together a mixture of teachers of different subjects. A geography teacher provides fresh ideas that you can use to teach your subject.
M: I have chosen English. I have always found it a real eye-opener to talk to other English teachers, because people’s methods of teaching the same subject can be different. Actually, I think as a teacher, I should make sure I can do well in each class, but I can’t always do it.
W: Each class develops its own culture, and not all teachers do well in each class. You just have to accept that you can’t teach every class well. I can’t either.
M: Maybe you are right.

W: I’d love to help, but I have my basketball finals scheduled for Saturday. However, I’m completely free on Sunday. Would that work?
M: Unfortunately, the report must be submitted by Monday morning. If we wait until Sunday, there won’t be enough time to analyze the data and finalize the report.
W: I understand the urgency. Here’s an idea — what if I handle all the data analysis tonight after practice? That way, you only need to focus on collecting water and soil samples on Saturday.
M: That’s a great solution! To speed things up, let’s ask Jenny to assist with the fieldwork on Saturday. She’s experienced with sample collection.
W: Perfect! I’ll send you the analyzed data by midnight tonight. Good luck with the fieldwork, and let me know if you need anything else.

M: Sure. How about we meet there after school? I’m free at four o’clock.
W: That works for me and don’t forget the colored pens. We want the poster to look brighter.
M: Right. I’ll bring them. If we finish early, maybe we can practice our presentation as well.
W: Perfect. Let’s try our best to get a good grade.

第二部分 阅读理解(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,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Turkey has emerged as the global capital of hair transplants. It now attracts over 1.8 million international health travelers annually.
A Price Gap That’s Hard to Ignore
One of the biggest reasons why patients travel overseas for a hair transplant is cost — and the difference is surprising.
Country
FUE Cost (4,000 grafts)
DHI Cost (4,000 grafts)
Turkey
$2,800
$4,500
US
$14,000
$12,000
And unlike many US clinics that charge additional fees for consultations, medications, or follow-ups, Turkish clinics provide all-inclusive packages that cover hotel accommodation, airport transportation, and postoperative care.
The Promise of Consistent Quality
Some American patients may think that lower cost equals lower quality. But that assumption doesn’t hold up when you look at the volume and specialization of Turkish clinics.
One Turkish surgeon performs 500+ hair transplants annually, which naturally results in more consistent outcomes.
Many are trained internationally and operate in JCI-accredited (认证的) hospitals using the latest FUE and DHI methods.
Clinics offer customized hairline design that is precisely tailored to each patient’s unique hair type and face structure.
Success Story: From New York to Istanbul — Matt Scholl’s Transformation
Matt Scholl traveled from New York to Istanbul for a hair transplant. The procedure involved transplanting thousands of grafts — the essential building blocks of hair growth. Now, 15 months later, the results speak for themselves. He says he feels younger, more confident and grateful he didn’t have to spend that much back home.
21. How much will one save with a DHI method of 4,000 grafts in Turkey instead of US?
A. $2,800.
B. $7,500.
C. $11,200.
D. $16,500.
22. What can contribute to the high quality of Turkish hair transplants?
A. Hospital location.
B. Competitive prices.
C. Uniform design.
D. Experienced surgeons.
23. What do we know about Matt Scholl’s hair transplant?
A. It lasted a few minutes.
B. It used fewer hair grafts.
C. It boosted his confidence.
D. It took place in New York.
【答案】21. B 22. D 23. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了土耳其成为全球植发之都的原因。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格中“DHI Cost (4,000 grafts)”一列可知,在美国使用DHI方法进行4000个毛囊移植的费用是12000美元,在土耳其是4500美元。因此,在土耳其进行4000个毛囊移植的DHI方法比在美国节省“12000-4500 = 7500”美元。故选B项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The Promise of Consistent Quality”部分中“One Turkish surgeon performs 500+ hair transplants annually, which naturally results in more consistent outcomes.(一位土耳其外科医生每年完成500多例头发移植手术,这样的经验积累自然使治疗效果更稳定)”可知,经验丰富的外科医生有助于土耳其植发的高质量。故选D项。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Success Story: From New York to Istanbul — Matt Scholl’s Transformation”部分中“Now, 15 months later, the results speak for themselves. He says he feels younger, more confident and grateful he didn’t have to spend that much back home.(现在,15个月后,结果不言而喻。他说,他觉得自己更年轻、更自信,也很感激自己在国内不用花那么多钱)”可知,Matt Scholl的植发手术增强了他的信心。故选C项。
B
Mike’s shaved head and tattooed(有纹身的) arms made mothers pull their children closer on the beach. I was a new lifeguard that summer, and on my first shift I admitted to myself: Mike looked more like a warning than a watcher.
One August dusk the sea turned unpleasant. A rip(离岸流) current dragged two small boys seaward while their mother, frozen in panic, screamed from the shore. Mike was off the tower before the whistle finished echoing. He entered the water sideways, cutting across the current until he was level with the boys, then swam sideways again to escape the rip. I watched from the sand, helpless. In less than four minutes he returned, a child tucked under each arm like footballs.
The mother ran forward, snatched her sons and spun away without a word. No thank-you, no eye-contact—just the back of her T-shirt disappearing into the crowd. I waited for Mike to swear or shrug. He simply jogged back to his tower, eyes already scanning the next wave.
Later I asked why he stayed silent. He laughed, salt water still on his lashes. “Words don’t keep kids alive, watching does.” He added, “She was scared. Fear makes people forget manners.”
That night I wrote in my logbook: Heroism is sometimes missed because it doesn’t look like the stories we were promised. Mike’s pay was twelve dollars an hour, but the sea had measured him at a different rate.
Ten years on, whenever I feel judgement rising in my throat, I remember the scar across Mike’s scalp and the two boys who will never know the name of the man who gave them the rest of their lives. I promised myself never to let appearance drown reality again.
24. What first impression did Mike make on the author?
A. He appeared friendly but careless.
B. He struck people as shy and quiet.
C. He seemed experienced but unreliable.
D. He looked frightening and unapproachable.
25. Why did Mike enter the water sideways?
A. To offer comfort to the boys.
B. To avoid being swept away by the rip.
C. To hear the whistle from other lifeguards.
D. To demonstrate professional swimming skills.
26. What lesson did the author learn from the incident?
A. Never judge people by their appearance. B. Always thank those who help you.
C. Fear is a natural reaction. D. Lifeguards are underpaid.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Mother’s Fear B. The Unthanked Hero
C. A Summer Lifeguard D. The Danger of the Sea
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者作为救生员目睹了Mike救起两个落水男孩却未被道谢的事件。Mike因外表凶悍而引人注目,但他专业地救助了孩子。这件事让作者认识到不能以貌取人,并决心不被表面现象蒙蔽。
【24题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Mike’s shaved head and tattooed arms made mothers pull their children closer on the beach. I was a new lifeguard that summer, and on my first shift I admitted to myself: Mike looked more like a warning than a watcher.(Mike剃光了头发,手臂上还有纹身,在海滩上,他这副模样让不少母亲都把孩子拉得更紧了。那年夏天我是新来的救生员,上岗的第一天我就暗自承认:Mike看起来更像是个警告,而不是守护者。)”可知,Mike给作者的第一印象是看起来很吓人,让人不敢接近。故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“He entered the water sideways, cutting across the current until he was level with the boys, then swam sideways again to escape the rip.(他侧身潜入水中,穿过水流,一直游到与孩子们齐平的位置,然后再次侧身游动,以避开那股离岸流。)”可知,Mike侧身进入水中是为了避开离岸流,防止被冲走。故选B项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“I promised myself never to let appearance drown reality again.(我承诺自己再也不会让外表掩盖了事实)”可知,作者从这次事件中学到的教训是不要以貌取人。A选项“Never judge people by their appearance.(永远不要根据一个人的外表来评判他。)”符合题意。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章内容,全文主要讲述了Mike作为救生员的一次英勇救援,以及事后孩子母亲没有表示感谢,但Mike并不在意,他认为实际行动比言语更重要。文章最后作者也从中得到了不要以貌取人的教训。由此可知,文章主要围绕Mike这位未被感谢的英雄展开。B选项“The Unthanked Hero(未被感谢的英雄)”符合题意。故选B项。
C
Steve Jobs may not be the most obvious style icon (偶像) for Generation Z (Gen Z), but his habit of wearing the same set of clothes every day has left an influence on young professionals like me. Unlike fashion-conscious millennials (千禧一代), many of my generation have abandoned creative office dressing, instead it had become common to find one fixed dress code and stick to it. That could be smart or casual, but whatever it is, we’re not varying it.
My first job experience perfectly illustrates this shift. After weeks of interview preparation, I weighed up my first-day outfit. But when I arrived, I couldn’t have been more confused. A senior workmate wore jeans and red glasses, while another stuck strictly to suits. A week later, I realized that there simply were no rules. So I created my own uniform — two pairs of casual trousers from Uniqlo and basic tops.
I’m not alone: a media industry friend repeats modest tops and trousers for interviews; my boyfriend has four gray formal shirts; a roommate’s plain sweaters mirror classic consultant style. A designer friend even sews her name into identical cotton shirts to avoid decision tiredness, joking that her’ work uniform” has become her professional signature.
Why are we doing this? The reality warns us: being taken seriously is a worry. In an unstable job market with a high cost of living, standing out through clothes feels risky. A recent survey reveals that 75% of companies are dissatisfied with recent graduates labeled as lazy people. Uniform dressing helps us avoid attention and focus on competence. Dressing plainly means one less thing to worry about.
Moreover, sustainable fashion isn’t cheap, and tracking trends is both expensive and time-consuming. A Gen Z workmate once wore zebra-print trousers and suffered such judgment that she said, “I’ve now lost my personality.” For many of us, the thrill of striking fashion is no longer worth the price. Safe black trousers it is.
28. Why did the author create her own “uniform” for work?
A. She wanted to copy Steve Jobs’ style.
B. She couldn’t afford fashionable clothes.
C. She was advised by her workmates to dress simply.
D. She found everyone was free to dress as they pleased.
29. What can we learn from the examples of her friends?
A. Creative dressing is preferred in most industries.
B. Gen Z professionals have lost interest in fashion.
C. Many Gen Z professionals wear a uniform to work.
D. Sustainable fashion is becoming popular among Gen Z.
30. Why does Gen Z choose to dress plainly?
A. They are pressured by senior workmates.
B. Companies prefer employees to dress simply.
C. They are unwilling to be the focus in the office.
D. Recent graduates are asked to follow strict rules.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To analyze Gen Z’s dressing code.
B. To criticize Gen Z’s lack of fashion creativity.
C. To compare fast fashion and quality uniforms.
D. To explain why Gen Z values financial stability.
【答案】28. D 29. C 30. C 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要分析了Z世代职场人士选择固定着装风格的现象及其背后的原因。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“A week later, I realized that there simply were no rules. So I created my own uniform—two pairs of casual trousers from Uniqlo and basic tops.(一周之后,我意识到其实根本就没有什么固定的穿搭规则。于是,我给自己制定了专属的穿搭准则——从优衣库购买了两条休闲裤和几件基础款上衣)”可知,作者是因发现同事着装自由才决定固定自己的风格。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“I’m not alone: a media industry friend repeats modest tops and trousers for interviews; my boyfriend has four gray formal shirts; a roommate’s plain sweaters mirror classic consultant style. A designer friend even sews her name into identical cotton shirts to avoid decision tiredness, joking that her’ work uniform” has become her professional signature.(并非只有我如此:一位媒体界的朋友在采访时会穿着简约的上衣和长裤;我的男朋友有四件灰色的正式衬衫;室友的朴素毛衣也体现了经典的顾问风格。一位设计师朋友甚至会在相同的棉质衬衫上缝上自己的名字,以此来避免决策疲劳,她还开玩笑说,她的“工作服”已经成为了她的职业标志)”可知,列举的这些朋友案例(重复穿搭、固定衬衫、经典毛衣)以及作者说的自己并不孤单可推断,许多Z世代职场人士选择固定着装。故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段的“In an unstable job market with a high cost of living, standing out through clothes feels risky.(在就业市场不稳定且生活成本高昂的情况下,通过穿着打扮来脱颖而出似乎存在风险)”和“Uniform dressing helps us avoid attention and focus on competence.(统一的着装有助于我们减少外界的注意,从而将注意力集中在自身的能力上)”可知,Z世代人认为通过穿着打扮成为焦点是有风险的,因此不愿因着装成为焦点,而是把注意力集中在自身的能力上。故选C。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段“Unlike fashion-conscious millennials (千禧一代), many of my generation have abandoned creative office dressing, instead it had become common to find one fixed dress code and stick to it. That could be smart or casual, but whatever it is, we’ re not varying it.(与注重时尚的千禧一代不同,我们这一代人已经摒弃了富有创意的办公室着装方式,取而代之的是形成了固定的着装规范,并且严格遵守。这种着装风格可能是正式的,也可能是休闲的,但无论如何,我们都不会改变它)”及后文多角度分析,全文通过分析Z世代职场着装现象(如固定风格、避免风险、节约成本等),说明作者的写作目的是分析其着装特点。故选A。
D
It’s the middle of winter, and the prospect of warm sunny days is a long way off. For some of us, it’s the most depressing time of year, when daylight is limited and the weather is often miserable. It is when the winter blues set in. So what can be done to lift our spirits?
The shorter days and longer nights can make us feel down, which can cause us to eat more and exercise less. Some fear loneliness and isolation. Those people who suffer this seasonal mood swing more seriously are described as having the seasonal affective disorder — or SAD for short. It’s a type of depression with a seasonal pattern caused by a shortage of light and is thought to affect the part of the brain that rules sleep, appetite, moods and activity levels.
Jenny Scott-Thompson diagnosed (诊断) with the SAD struggled with periods of tiredness and unhappiness. She was recommended for light therapy (疗法), which involved sitting in front of a light box as well as going outside during daylight hours. This is believed to help anyone who is affected by winter depression.
Although having more light is an obvious cure, antidepressants can help those with more severe depression by artificially raising the amount of serotonin (血清素) in the brain. But this isn’t suitable for everyone, and many of us can try to just change our mindset. Clinical psychologist Laura Keyes says, “It can be helpful to think about how to adapt your eating and exercise patterns to the change of seasons.”
It might sound easier said than done, but accepting winter and thinking positively may energize us. Writing for a social website, Esther De La Ford asks, “What if we explore what this phase of winter has to offer us, instead of being upset about those things that it is taking away?” She suggests we use this time for rest, reflection and slowing down.
32. What is the major cause of winter depression?
A. Eating more. B. Lack of light. C. Less exercise. D. Feeling lonely.
33. According to Paragraph 4, in what way do antidepressants help patients with more severe depression?
A. By increasing the amount of light. B. By changing people’s mindset.
C. By artificially raising brain serotonin levels. D. By advising rest and reflection.
34. How does the author develop his idea in paragraph 5?
A. By describing details. B. By providing evidence.
C. By making a comparison. D. By giving an example.
35. What's this passage mainly about?
A. The types of the SAD. B. The importance of taking action.
C. The causes of winter depression. D. The way to stay cheerful in winter.
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要分析冬季抑郁的成因,介绍光照疗法、药物治疗及心态调整等改善方法,帮助人们冬季保持愉悦。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It’s a type of depression with a seasonal pattern caused by a shortage of light(这是一种具有季节性模式的抑郁症,由光照不足引起)”可知,冬季抑郁的主要原因是缺乏光照。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“antidepressants can help those with more severe depression by artificially raising the amount of serotonin in the brain(抗抑郁药物可以通过人为提高大脑中血清素的含量,帮助那些患有更严重抑郁症的人)”可知,药物通过人为提升大脑血清素水平发挥作用。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Writing for a social website, Esther De La Ford asks, “What if we explore what this phase of winter has to offer us, instead of being upset about those things that it is taking away?” She suggests we use this time for rest, reflection and slowing down.(埃丝特・德拉福特(Esther De La Ford)在某社交网站发文问道:“倘若我们不去为冬季带走的东西而沮丧,转而探索这个时节能赋予我们什么,会怎样呢?” 她建议我们利用这段时间休息、反思,放慢生活节奏。)”可知,作者通过引用埃丝特的观点举例,佐证“积极看待冬季”的建议。故选D。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“So what can be done to lift our spirits?(那么,我们可以做些什么来振奋精神呢?)”可知,短文主要分析冬季抑郁的成因,介绍光照疗法、药物治疗及心态调整等改善方法,帮助人们冬季保持愉悦。所以短文主要关于冬季保持愉悦的方法。故选D项。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When we fall behind others or perform less well in areas we care about, a feeling of envy arises. Envy has always been a part of human experience.
____36____ The former brings misery but drives self-improvement and emulation (效仿). Malicious envy, however, leads to harm, like hostile thoughts. Benign envy comes when you think others deserve admiration; malicious envy when you don’t. That’s why you might envy a war hero but not wish him ill, yet enjoy a Hollywood actor’s failed marriage.
Envy — especially malicious — is harmful. Neuroscientists find it activates the brain’s anterior cingulate cortex, linked to physical and mental pain. A 2018 Social Science & Medicine study of 18,000 people found envy predicts worse future mental health. It even stops the natural trend of better mental health with age. ____37____
Different people envy different things. I don’t care about others’ fancy boats, but envy men my age with full hair. Scholars note patterns: young people envy education, looks or romance; older people envy money. ____38____ Studies show men envy social status most, women physical attractiveness. Both envy others’ romantic success second.
Envy needs exposure to “luckier” people. Social media worsens this — strangers show only admirable and enviable lives. Social media plays an important role in fueling envy. ____39____ Experiments prove passive social media use lowers well-being via more envy.
It is impossible to end envy. ____40____ Next time envy hits, think of loved ones or your own good fortune.
A. However, gratitude helps.
B. Academics call this “Facebook envy”.
C. And it doesn’t bring economic success.
D Envy often causes fights between people.
E. Women are more likely to show envy than men.
F. Men and women tend to envy different qualities.
G. Scholars categorize envy into benign and malicious envy.
【答案】36. G 37. C 38. F 39. B 40. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍嫉妒分良性与恶意,恶意嫉妒危害身心,不同人群、社交媒体会影响嫉妒,消除嫉妒不可能,感恩可应对。
【36题详解】
根据后文“The former brings misery but drives self-improvement and emulation (效仿). Malicious envy, however, leads to harm, like hostile thoughts. Benign envy comes when you think others deserve admiration; malicious envy when you don’t. That’s why you might envy a war hero but not wish him ill, yet enjoy a Hollywood actor’s failed marriage.(前者会带来痛苦,但能促使自我提升和效仿。然而,恶意的嫉妒会带来伤害,就像充满敌意的想法一样。而善意的嫉妒则是在你认为他人值得赞赏时产生;而恶意的嫉妒则是在你认为他人不值得赞赏时产生。这就是为什么你可能会羡慕一位战功卓著的英雄,但不会希望他遭遇不幸,却会欣赏一位好莱坞演员的失败婚姻)”可知,空后明确提到“前者(The former)”和“恶意嫉妒(Malicious envy)”,说明此处需要先对嫉妒进行分类。选项G“学者将嫉妒分为良性嫉妒和恶意嫉妒”,刚好对应后文的两类嫉妒,起到引出下文的作用。故选G。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Envy — especially malicious — is harmful. Neuroscientists find it activates the brain’s anterior cingulate cortex, linked to physical and mental pain. A 2018 Social Science & Medicine study of 18,000 people found envy predicts worse future mental health. It even stops the natural trend of better mental health with age.(嫉妒——尤其是恶意的嫉妒——是有害的。神经科学家发现,嫉妒会激活大脑的前扣带皮层,该区域与身体和精神上的疼痛有关。2018年一项针对18000人的社会科学与医学研究发现,嫉妒预示着未来更糟糕的心理健康状况。它甚至会打破随着年龄增长而自然出现的更好的心理健康趋势)”可知,本段核心讲嫉妒(尤其恶意嫉妒)的危害,前文提到损害心理健康、阻碍心理健康随年龄改善,选项C“而且它也不会带来经济成功”,承接前文的“危害”,补充了嫉妒的另一负面影响,逻辑连贯。故选C。
【38题详解】
根据后文“Studies show men envy social status most, women physical attractiveness. Both envy others’ romantic success second.(研究表明,男性最嫉妒的是社会地位,而女性则最嫉妒的是外在的美貌。两者都嫉妒他人在感情方面的成功)”可知,空后明确对比了男性和女性嫉妒的侧重点(男性最嫉妒社会地位,女性最嫉妒外貌),选项F“男性和女性往往嫉妒不同的特质”,作为段落过渡句,刚好引出后文的性别差异分析。故选F。
【39题详解】
根据上文“Envy needs exposure to “luckier” people. Social media worsens this — strangers show only admirable and enviable lives. Social media plays an important role in fueling envy.(嫉妒需要与“更幸运的人”接触。而社交媒体则加剧了这一现象——陌生人所展示的都是令人钦佩和羡慕的生活状态。社交媒体在助长嫉妒情绪方面起到了重要作用)”可知,前文提到社交媒体加剧嫉妒,选项B“学者称之为‘脸书嫉妒’”,用具体术语指代前文 “社交媒体引发的嫉妒”,且“Facebook”是社交媒体的典型代表,符合语境。故选B。
【40题详解】
根据上文“It is impossible to end envy.(无法消除嫉妒心理)”以及后文“Next time envy hits, think of loved ones or your own good fortune.(下次再有嫉妒情绪时,就想想所爱的人或者自己所拥有的美好事物吧)”可知,前文说“消除嫉妒是不可能的”,空后给出了应对嫉妒的方法(想到爱人或自己的好运),由此可知,空处表示的是嫉妒的危害;结合选项可知,选项D.Envy often causes fights between people.(嫉妒往往引发人与人之间的争斗。)承上启下,符合题意。故选D。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了瑞幸凭平价与创新快速崛起,借云南豆与数字模式出海,让全球消费者在杯中共享中西文化。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意:当纽约人品尝果香拿铁时,很少有人意识到这杯咖啡跨越太平洋的旅程讲述着一段文化交流的丰富故事。Pacific是专有名词,意思是“太平洋”,专有名词前需要加冠词the。故填the。
【57题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意:多年来,星巴克凭借在中国逾1.7万家门店,已成为咖啡市场广泛影响力的象征。stand在句中充当谓语,for years提示用现在完成时,主语Starbucks为单数,故填has stood。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意:对瑞幸来说,进入如此竞争激烈的空间需要勇气和真正的创新。空后有名词space,修饰名词应该用形容词,故填competitive。
【59题详解】
考查过去分词作状语。句意:创立于2017年的瑞幸是中国增长最快的咖啡零售商,全国门店超过2.4万家。句中已经存在谓语动词is,found需要转化为非谓语,它和逻辑主语Luckin呈被动关系,应该使用过去分词作状语表示被动完成。句首单词首字母大写,故填Founded。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意:通过聚焦咖啡的亲民价格与灵活的产品创新,瑞幸成功吸引越来越多年轻中国消费者。affordable是个形容词,横线前有冠词the,应该将affordable变成名词,故填affordability。
【61题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:随着“100%云南单一产地”等系列的推出,瑞幸多款特饮选用云南典型小粒咖啡,其巧克力余香备受青睐。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是coffee,指物,关系词在从句中充当主语,故填which。
【62题详解】
考查with的复合结构。句意:如今,云南咖啡是中国出口海外的关键产品之一,每年在这片沃土上产出约14万吨咖啡豆。此处为with的复合结构“with sth. done”,在句中作状语,表示伴随情况。故填with。
【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:不止于咖啡,瑞幸更以科技重塑零售,将传统咖啡生意转变为全线上、数据驱动的模式。这个句子是个非限定性定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子,在从句中作主语,故填which。
【64题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:顾客只需几秒就能在手机上个性化下单并付款,无需依赖他人为他定制饮品。介词后作宾语,主语是he,结合句意,这里用反身代词himself表示“他自己”,故填himself。
【65题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:在这杯将云南咖啡豆与全球口味融合的瑞幸咖啡里,不同文化找到了共同的一抿。句子已经存在谓语find,故combine需要转化为非谓语,它和逻辑主语Luckin coffee呈主动关系,应该使用现在分词作定语。故填combining。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear fellow students,
The picture presented today vividly captures a thought-provoking scene. Two doors stand side by side — one labeled “Free Book” is left half-open with no one around while the other, marked “Free WiFi”, is overcrowded to the point of collapse. This stark contrast reveals a troubling trend.
Why does this happen? First, instant gratification dominates modern life. Books require time and effort to absorb, while free WiFi offers immediate entertainment. Second, misinformation spreads the myth that “free digital services are harmless”, ignoring the hidden costs like data privacy risks and addictive algorithms.
As a student, I’ve witnessed this trap firsthand. Last month, I wasted hours scrolling social media under “free WiFi”, only to realize I could have finished a novel. Unless we rethink our choices, we’ll keep trading wisdom for fleeting pleasures. Let’s value substance over convenience by starting with choosing the “Free Book” door.
Thank you.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
For the graduating class, it was a bittersweet moment that signified the end of something great and the beginning of something unknown. For Joseph, Kyle, Sam, and Harry, that day marked the end of their tight-knit friendship.
“What will I do without you guys?” Kyle asked as they walked down the same route going home for the last time. The four of them were inseparable, always joining the same organizations, spending every lunch break together, and attending all events as a group.
“Tell me about it, man. Europe is too far away from my liking. You guys better write to me a lot,” Joseph chimed in. He said since they were children, they’d just rush to each other’s houses whenever they needed each other.
Not wanting to go their separate ways, the friends agreed to meet again the next day, sitting by the beach in their coastal town. There, they spoke about where life was about to take them and how they planned to stay in touch.
While Joseph was moving to Europe, Sam was to study in Canada. Harry was moving with his family to Mexico, where his father was offered a job. Meanwhile, Kyle decided to stay in California and study at the University of California Los Angeles, where he got a basketball scholarship.
They couldn’t help but shed tears during their talk by the beach. “Let’s all write to each other at least every other month. What do you guys say?” Kyle suggested.
They all agreed. Sam tore four sheets of paper from his notebook and they wrote their future addresses. Once that was settled, they made sure that in case they lost touch, they’d meet again in the future.
Sam suggested meeting here in exactly forty years. They all raised their soda cans as a toast, signifying the promise that they’d all make it back to the beach in four decades on May 30th. Years had passed, and the group of friends eventually lost touch.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
However, when the 40-year mark came, they never forgot about the promise they made.

【答案】参考范文:
However, when the 40-year mark came, they never forgot about the promise they made. They all booked flights to California from wherever they were. Kyle was the first to arrive. Soon after, Harry arrived. Thirty minutes later, Sam arrived. Despite nearing their 60s, they were so excited that they jumped for joy as they hugged one another. All but Joseph appeared. The three decided to stay there until nightfall to ensure they didn’t miss Joseph. When they were sitting on a bench, they found a letter from Joseph under it, mentioning he had lost their addresses and he couldn’t come because of his tight financial problem.
Harry, Sam, and Kyle were saddened by the letter under the bench and decided to find and help Joseph. They were so sad to know Joseph had been having a difficult time. The three men booked the next flight to Spain without a second thought. When they found him at the address he had given, Joseph was surprised to see them all. As they sat together in Joseph’s small apartment, sharing stories of their lives, they realized that despite the distance and the years that had passed, their bond remained unbroken and decided to support each other no matter what life threw at them. The reunion was more than just a meeting; it was a reminder of their unbreakable friendship.

【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“然而,当40年之约到来时,他们从未忘记自己许下的承诺。”可知,第一段可描述三人从各地赶来,见面后的激动心情,以及发现唯独Joseph未到,在长椅下找到Joseph的信,信中说明他因弄丢地址和经济困难无法前来。
②由第二段首句内容“哈里、萨姆和凯尔因长椅下的那封信而难过,他们决定去寻找约瑟夫并帮助他”可知,第二段可描述他们前往西班牙找到Joseph,Joseph见到他们很惊讶,大家相聚后意识到友谊依旧深厚,决定今后互相支持,强调这次重逢对他们友谊的意义。

Hello, tom, how are you finding teaching here? I get the feeling that the school is old but successful. The buildings and equipment are all so old, but amazingly, the students seem happy. The school pays attention to the all round development of students. IT seems to offer a whole range of subjects, not just english, maths. I think that's good because our school can bring together a mixture of teachers of different subjects. A geography teacher provides fresh ideas that you can use to teach your subject. I have chosen english. I ve always found IT a real eye opener to talk to weather english teachers, because people's methods of teaching the same subject can be different. Actually, I think as a teacher, I should make sure I can do well in each class, but I can always do IT. Each class develops its own culture, and not all teachers do well in each class. You just have to accept that you can't teach every class well, I can't either. Maybe you are right. Hello, tom, how are you finding teaching here?

You just have to accept that you can't teach every class well. I can't either. Maybe you are right.
I have no energy at all. Sometimes I feel cold. Have you got any idea what IT is? Yes, you have a serious infection. I'll give you this medicine. You need to take IT right away, then you need to go home and rest. Do you have someone to look after you? Yes, my wife, she's a nurse, actually. Good, get a good nights sleep and i'll need to examine you on monday. No work. Until then, you won't be able to work. I have no energy at all. Sometimes I feel cold. Have you got any idea what IT is?

第二部分 阅读理解(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,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Turkey has emerged as the global capital of hair transplants. It now attracts over 1.8 million international health travelers annually.
A Price Gap That’s Hard to Ignore
One of the biggest reasons why patients travel overseas for a hair transplant is cost — and the difference is surprising.
Country
FUE Cost (4,000 grafts)
DHI Cost (4,000 grafts)
Turkey
$2,800
$4,500
US
$14,000
$12,000
And unlike many US clinics that charge additional fees for consultations, medications, or follow-ups, Turkish clinics provide all-inclusive packages that cover hotel accommodation, airport transportation, and postoperative care.
The Promise of Consistent Quality
Some American patients may think that lower cost equals lower quality. But that assumption doesn’t hold up when you look at the volume and specialization of Turkish clinics.
One Turkish surgeon performs 500+ hair transplants annually which naturally results in more consistent outcomes.
Many are trained internationally and operate in JCI-accredited (认证的) hospitals using the latest FUE and DHI methods.
Clinics offer customized hairline design that is precisely tailored to each patient’s unique hair type and face structure.
Success Story: From New York to Istanbul — Matt Scholl’s Transformation
Matt Scholl traveled from New York to Istanbul for a hair transplant. The procedure involved transplanting thousands of grafts — the essential building blocks of hair growth. Now, 15 months later, the results speak for themselves. He says he feels younger, more confident and grateful he didn’t have to spend that much back home.
21. How much will one save with a DHI method of 4000 grafts in Turkey instead of US?
A. $2,800.
B. $7,500.
C. $11,200.
D. $16,500.
22. What can contribute to the high quality of Turkish hair transplants?
A. Hospital location.
B. Competitive prices.
C. Uniform design.
D. Experienced surgeons.
23. What do we know about Matt Scholl’s hair transplant?
A. It lasted a few minutes.
B. It used fewer hair grafts.
C. It boosted his confidence.
D. It took place in New York.
B
Mike’s shaved head and tattooed(有纹身的) arms made mothers pull their children closer on the beach. I was a new lifeguard that summer, and on my first shift I admitted to myself: Mike looked more like a warning than a watcher.
One August dusk the sea turned unpleasant. A rip(离岸流) current dragged two small boys seaward while their mother, frozen in panic, screamed from the shore. Mike was off the tower before the whistle finished echoing. He entered the water sideways, cutting across the current until he was level with the boys, then swam sideways again to escape the rip. I watched from the sand, helpless. In less than four minutes he returned, a child tucked under each arm like footballs.
The mother ran forward, snatched her sons and spun away without a word. No thank-you, no eye-contact—just the back of her T-shirt disappearing into the crowd. I waited for Mike to swear or shrug. He simply jogged back to his tower, eyes already scanning the next wave.
Later I asked why he stayed silent. He laughed, salt water still on his lashes. “Words don’t keep kids alive, watching does.” He added, “She was scared. Fear makes people forget manners.”
That night I wrote in my logbook: Heroism is sometimes missed because it doesn’t look like the stories we were promised. Mike’s pay was twelve dollars an hour, but the sea had measured him at a different rate.
Ten years on, whenever I feel judgement rising in my throat, I remember the scar across Mike’s scalp and the two boys who will never know the name of the man who gave them the rest of their lives. I promised myself never to let appearance drown reality again.
24. What first impression did Mike make on the author?
A. He appeared friendly but careless.
B. He struck people as shy and quiet.
C. He seemed experienced but unreliable.
D. He looked frightening and unapproachable.
25. Why did Mike enter the water sideways?
A. To offer comfort to the boys.
B. To avoid being swept away by the rip.
C. To hear the whistle from other lifeguards.
D. To demonstrate professional swimming skills.
26. What lesson did the author learn from the incident?
A. Never judge people by their appearance. B. Always thank those who help you.
C. Fear is a natural reaction. D. Lifeguards are underpaid.
27. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Mother’s Fear B. The Unthanked Hero
C. A Summer Lifeguard D. The Danger of the Sea
C
Steve Jobs may not be the most obvious style icon (偶像) for Generation Z (Gen Z), but his habit of wearing the same set of clothes every day has left an influence on young professionals like me. Unlike fashion-conscious millennials (千禧一代), many of my generation have abandoned creative office dressing, instead it had become common to find one fixed dress code and stick to it. That could be smart or casual, but whatever it is, we’re not varying it.
My first job experience perfectly illustrates this shift. After weeks of interview preparation, I weighed up my first-day outfit. But when I arrived, I couldn’t have been more confused. A senior workmate wore jeans and red glasses, while another stuck strictly to suits. A week later, I realized that there simply were no rules. So I created my own uniform — two pairs of casual trousers from Uniqlo and basic tops.
I’m not alone: a media industry friend repeats modest tops and trousers for interviews; my boyfriend has four gray formal shirts; a roommate’s plain sweaters mirror classic consultant style. A designer friend even sews her name into identical cotton shirts to avoid decision tiredness, joking that her’ work uniform” has become her professional signature.
Why are we doing this? The reality warns us: being taken seriously is a worry. In an unstable job market with a high cost of living, standing out through clothes feels risky. A recent survey reveals that 75% of companies are dissatisfied with recent graduates labeled as lazy people. Uniform dressing helps us avoid attention and focus on competence. Dressing plainly means one less thing to worry about.
Moreover, sustainable fashion isn’t cheap, and tracking trends is both expensive and time-consuming. A Gen Z workmate once wore zebra-print trousers and suffered such judgment that she said, “I’ve now lost my personality.” For many of us, the thrill of striking fashion is no longer worth the price. Safe black trousers it is.
28. Why did the author create her own “uniform” for work?
A. She wanted to copy Steve Jobs’ style.
B. She couldn’t afford fashionable clothes.
C. She was advised by her workmates to dress simply.
D. She found everyone was free to dress as they pleased.
29. What can we learn from the examples of her friends?
A. Creative dressing is preferred in most industries.
B. Gen Z professionals have lost interest in fashion.
C. Many Gen Z professionals wear a uniform to work.
D. Sustainable fashion is becoming popular among Gen Z.
30. Why does Gen Z choose to dress plainly?
A. They are pressured by senior workmates.
B. Companies prefer employees to dress simply.
C. They are unwilling to be the focus in the office.
D Recent graduates are asked to follow strict rules.
31. What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage?
A. To analyze Gen Z’s dressing code.
B. To criticize Gen Z’s lack of fashion creativity.
C. To compare fast fashion and quality uniforms.
D. To explain why Gen Z values financial stability.
D
It’s the middle of winter, and the prospect of warm sunny days is a long way off. For some of us, it’s the most depressing time of year, when daylight is limited and the weather is often miserable. It is when the winter blues set in. So what can be done to lift our spirits?
The shorter days and longer nights can make us feel down, which can cause us to eat more and exercise less. Some fear loneliness and isolation. Those people who suffer this seasonal mood swing more seriously are described as having the seasonal affective disorder — or SAD for short. It’s a type of depression with a seasonal pattern caused by a shortage of light and is thought to affect the part of the brain that rules sleep, appetite, moods and activity levels.
Jenny Scott-Thompson diagnosed (诊断) with the SAD struggled with periods of tiredness and unhappiness. She was recommended for light therapy (疗法), which involved sitting in front of a light box as well as going outside during daylight hours. This is believed to help anyone who is affected by winter depression.
Although having more light is an obvious cure, antidepressants can help those with more severe depression by artificially raising the amount of serotonin (血清素) in the brain. But this isn’t suitable for everyone, and many of us can try to just change our mindset. Clinical psychologist Laura Keyes says, “It can be helpful to think about how to adapt your eating and exercise patterns to the change of seasons.”
It might sound easier said than done, but accepting winter and thinking positively may energize us. Writing for a social website, Esther De La Ford asks, “What if we explore what this phase of winter has to offer us, instead of being upset about those things that it is taking away?” She suggests we use this time for rest, reflection and slowing down.
32. What is the major cause of winter depression?
A. Eating more. B. Lack of light. C. Less exercise. D. Feeling lonely.
33. According to Paragraph 4, in what way do antidepressants help patients with more severe depression?
A. By increasing the amount of light. B. By changing people’s mindset.
C. By artificially raising brain serotonin levels. D. By advising rest and reflection.
34. How does the author develop his idea in paragraph 5?
A By describing details. B. By providing evidence.
C. By making a comparison. D. By giving an example.
35. What's this passage mainly about?
A. The types of the SAD. B. The importance of taking action.
C. The causes of winter depression. D. The way to stay cheerful in winter.

根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
When we fall behind others or perform less well in areas we care about, a feeling of envy arises. Envy has always been a part of human experience.
____36____ The former brings misery but drives self-improvement and emulation (效仿). Malicious envy, however, leads to harm, like hostile thoughts. Benign envy comes when you think others deserve admiration; malicious envy when you don’t. That’s why you might envy a war hero but not wish him ill, yet enjoy a Hollywood actor’s failed marriage.
Envy — especially malicious — is harmful. Neuroscientists find it activates the brain’s anterior cingulate cortex, linked to physical and mental pain. A 2018 Social Science & Medicine study of 18,000 people found envy predicts worse future mental health. It even stops the natural trend of better mental health with age. ____37____
Different people envy different things. I don’t care about others’ fancy boats, but envy men my age with full hair. Scholars note patterns: young people envy education, looks or romance; older people envy money. ____38____ Studies show men envy social status most, women physical attractiveness. Both envy others’ romantic success second.
Envy needs exposure to “luckier” people. Social media worsens this — strangers show only admirable and enviable lives. Social media plays an important role in fueling envy. ____39____ Experiments prove passive social media use lowers well-being via more envy.
It is impossible to end envy. ____40____ Next time envy hits, think of loved ones or your own good fortune.
A. However, gratitude helps.
B. Academics call this “Facebook envy”.
C. And it doesn’t bring economic success.
D. Envy often causes fights between people.
E. Women are more likely to show envy than men.
F. Men and women tend to envy different qualities.
G. Scholars categorize envy into benign and malicious envy.

I started to ____47____in national and international puzzle championships, racing to complete puzzles in record time. It’s a mix of speed and strategy. Your brain is scanning for colors, patterns and shapes, while your hands are constantly ____48____ the pieces. Technique ____49____: the classic approach is to start with the edges, but I tend to begin in the middle, with the most unique sections first.
During competitions, you need to always ____50____ your area, making sure nothing has ____51____ on the floor. In a setting where every second counts, even something small like that can ____52____ you.
Despite its competitive nature, the puzzle community is very ____53____. There’s no conflict, just a shared love for an activity that brings us joy.
Puzzling has taught me patience, concentration and the importance of small ____54____. Every piece I place brings me a little closer to the ____55____ picture — a reminder that progress happens, even if it’s slow.

For the graduating class, it was a bittersweet moment that signified the end of something great and the beginning of something unknown. For Joseph, Kyle, Sam, and Harry, that day marked the end of their tight-knit friendship.
“What will I do without you guys?” Kyle asked as they walked down the same route going home for the last time. The four of them were inseparable, always joining the same organizations, spending every lunch break together, and attending all events as a group.
“Tell me about it, man. Europe is too far away from my liking. You guys better write to me a lot,” Joseph chimed in. He said since they were children, they’d just rush to each other’s houses whenever they needed each other.
Not wanting to go their separate ways, the friends agreed to meet again the next day, sitting by the beach in their coastal town. There, they spoke about where life was about to take them and how they planned to stay in touch.
While Joseph was moving to Europe, Sam was to study in Canada. Harry was moving with his family to Mexico, where his father was offered a job. Meanwhile, Kyle decided to stay in California and study at the University of California Los Angeles, where he got a basketball scholarship.
They couldn’t help but shed tears during their talk by the beach. “Let’s all write to each other at least every other month. What do you guys say?” Kyle suggested.
They all agreed. Sam tore four sheets of paper from his notebook and they wrote their future addresses. Once that was settled, they made sure that in case they lost touch, they’d meet again in the future.
Sam suggested meeting here in exactly forty years. They all raised their soda cans as a toast, signifying the promise that they’d all make it back to the beach in four decades on May 30th. Years had passed, and the group of friends eventually lost touch.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
However, when the 40-year mark came, they never forgot about the promise they made.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Harry, Sam, and Kyle were saddened by the letter under the bench and decided to find and help Joseph.
