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
Choosing a course format is an important part of the course design and delivery phase. Knowing the course format will help you structure the delivery of lectures, readings and assignments, and build appropriate assessments and plans.
Types of Course Formats
Face-to-face: Lectures and discussions are delivered during class time and students are assigned work outside of class. A typical 3-credit, 15-week course would have three hours per week of classroom time and six to nine hours a week for readings and assignments.
Flipped (翻转): All instructional materials, including lectures, are housed in the learning management system. Class time is reserved for active learning assignments. Students have clear expectations of requirements and assignments they must complete before, during, and after class.
Online: All lectures are recorded in advance and delivered online. A typical online course will have one hour of lecture a week, two hours of engagement, and six to nine hours for readings and assignments.
Blended (混合): Class time is reduced and the learning management system is used to house additional materials. Students are still expected to have the same workload expectations as an online or face-to-face course, but it is partly delivered in-person and partly online.
Best Practices
When you are moving to a different course format, follow these practices:
●Identify course goals and student learning objectives first, and then choose the course format. After that, you can structure the delivery of your course to meet the goals.
●Start small. If you taught a course in a different format in the past, try adapting one or two units of content in the new format.
●Keep improving. Regardless of the course format, refine it throughout the process.
1. Which course format is suitable for task-driven students?
A. The face-to-face course format. B. The flipped course format.
C. The online course format. D. The blended course format.
2. What is recommended before applying a new course format?
A. Learning new delivery of courses. B. Identifying learning materials.
C. Redesigning some learning content. D. Keeping a uniform course style.
3. Who are the intended readers of the text?

Kimbal Musk recently started the Million Gardens Movement (MGM) to help feed families. The organization aims to become the world’s largest gardener community, helping to fight food insecurity, which affects millions globally.
It all started when Kimbal realized that many people live in food deserts where they have no way to buy fresh fruits and vegetables. With this in mind, he came to the owner of Modern Farmer magazine, Frank Giustra, and asked him to cooperate on the massive project. With Kimbal’s experience in gardening initiatives combined with Frank’s experience in food charity, the two joined forces to create MGM. No matter where the seeds are planted, getting fruits and vegetables is the ultimate goal.
To make it simple for any family to have a garden, the two decided to “provide the families that need it most with a beginner-friendly garden kit”. Called Little Green Gardens, the kits contain ready-to-use fruit and vegetable garden beds. As of now, 5,000 garden kits have already been distributed to help feed families. Along with the tools to grow a garden, each kit contains instructions like soil preparation, plant selection, planting techniques and so on.
Frank says they’ve received a positive response to their mission, which is making a difference. More families have improved their life through it. Many celebrities have gotten on board and been helping to spread the message, using their social media platforms to share the importance of gardening.
“The movement is about reconnecting to our roots, to real food, and to a path to a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. I want to inspire families across America—even the globe—to experience the magic of growing your own food. We can all have an incredible influence on the health and happiness by gardening more,” says Kimbal.
4. What inspired Kimbal to initiate the Million Gardens Movement?
A. Poor conditions in deserts. B. Inaccessibility of fresh food to people.
C. The problem of food safety. D. His experience in gardening initiatives.
5. What can be learned about Little Green Gardens?
A. They are meant for farmers. B. They contain usable plant seeds.
C. They are used to store food. D. They give guidance on gardening.
6. Why does the author mention celebrities?
A. To praise the success of promotion. B. To encourage more people to engage.
C. To show the impact of the movement. D. To prove the importance of gardening.
7. Which words can best describe Kimbal?
A. Caring and ambitious. B. Brave and determined.
C. Innovative and careful. D. Adaptable and helpful.
C
The race is on to reverse (彻底转变) global biodiversity loss. However, a recent review of 400 global businesses by the World Benchmarking Alliance found that just five percent have an understanding of the true effects and consequences of their actions to nature. Researchers have also highlighted the challenges faced by organizations when it comes to delivering ambitious nature-positive targets, particularly in the absence of wider systems change.
The problem, according to Sam Sinclair, co-founder and director of Biodiversify, is that biodiversity lacks one simpatico standard of assessment and measurement. “The value of biodiversity is so context-dependent.” He gives the example of a non-native UK species, which should be removed from British woodlands but is protected in its natural East Himalayan habitat. When it comes to improving a company’s impact on biodiversity, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. “The amount of variation between companies is absolutely enormous,” says Sinclair.
There is a range of different reasons why a company would want to improve its relationship with biodiversity. “Companies are now waking up to the fact that if they don’t stop impacting the systems on which they depend, their businesses will cease to operate,” Sinclair explains. He points to the world’s cotton market, 24 percent of which comes from an extremely climate-sensitive region of India, as an example. “From a business viewpoint, the loss of that market would be a major problem.” However, Sinclair says that, from his experience, a lot of businesses have taken the issue very seriously and genuinely want to do the right thing.
It’s unavoidable, says Sinclair, that mistakes will be made over the next few years. “The speed at which this area of suitability has progressed is breathtaking, especially when you consider that it took us 15 years to get to where we are today with carbon emissions (排放). We were the first organization to publish a detailed corporate biodiversity strategy in 2020. Now, four years on, companies left, right and centre are doing it and there’s a new biodiversity start-up every week.”
8. What do the findings show about the 400 businesses?
A. Few act to protect the environment. B. They need to change management.
C Most don’t realize their harm to nature. D. They can’t meet environmental targets.
9. What does the underlined word “simpatico” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Varied. B. Independent. C. Specific. D. Consistent.
10. How does Sinclair find the future of biodiversity?
A. It’s promising. B. It’s worrying. C. It’s unpredictable. D. It’s unstable.
11. What might be the best title of the text?
A. Sustainable start-ups on the rise B. Biodiversity loss out of control
C. Corporate cooperation in demand D. Nature-positive efforts under way
D
The makers of some brain-monitoring headsets and other consumer neurotechnology (神经技术) devices may not have enough privacy and data-sharing policies. An analysis of these companies’ policies shows many gather users’ neural data and maintain the right to share or sell the information without additional permission from users.
The findings come from a report by the Neurorights Foundation in New York. It looked at 30 companies that sell neurotech devices or services directly to consumers with promised benefits. “Our position is that brain data is at least as sensitive as personal health data,” says Rafael Yuste, co-founder of the Neurorights Foundation. “Why should people be okay about sharing brain data that can be decoded (解码)?”
The Neurorights Foundation found that 29 of the 30 companies could access customers’ neural data without proper sharing limits. Two-thirds allowed for the sharing of customer data, almost another third left this unclear, and just one company specifically said it wouldn’t. Furthermore, only 12 of the 30 companies gave customers both the right to withdraw permission for data processing and the right to request data deletion.
Among firms contacted for comment, a few pushed back on the foundation’s report. The Sweden-based company Flow Neuroscience told New Scientist that it doesn’t collect any neural data. And Tre Azam, founder of the UK-based company MyndPlay, said it never has access to or stores “brainwave data or any other data” from customers. He added that the firm’s software runs locally on devices without sending any information to cloud computing servers.
The problem is the absence of US government regulations, says Yuste, in comparison with the data privacy protections of the European Union. But that could be changing: Colorado became the first US state to add privacy protections for brain data. The Neurorights Foundation described it as a “game changer”. It also served as a beginning and inspiration, says Yuste.
12. What did the Neurorights Foundation report focus on?
A. Risk of getting data from brains. B. Neurotech experiences of users.
C. Security of collected brain data. D. Unseen data-processing policies.
13. Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 3?
A. To guarantee users’ fundamental rights. B. To prove insufficiency of privacy policies.
C. To draw readers’ attention to brain data. D. To reveal illegalities of certain companies.
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Consequences of poor regulation. B. Examples of trustworthy companies.
C. Challenges of neurotech development. D. Disagreements from the businesses.
15. What might the author continue talking about?
A. The US government’s creative moves. B. More upcoming brain data protections.
C. The European Union’s privacy policies. D. More problems with neurotech devices.

How to start rock climbing
Whether you watched “Free Solo” or the Paris Olympics, you might be wondering how to start rock climbing. ____16____ There are gyms and outdoor areas available everywhere. And at its most basic level, rock climbing is what you’d expect. You put on special shoes, dust your hands with chalk and climb rocks, whether they’re made of plastic or sandstone. “This can translate from short climbs of only a few feet that take mere seconds into long routes that take weeks,” says James Lucas, a decades-long climber.
Regardless of the type of climb, the goal is to reach some predetermined end point. In the gym, that’s either the final hold or the top of the climbing wall. ____17____ Sometimes completing a task might mean climbing on top of a cliff (峭壁). Other times you’ll simply reach the final hold of a climb, not unlike the gym.
_____18_____ Just as a runner might try to shave seconds off their mile time, climbers measure progress by pushing higher and higher climbing grades. There are different climbing rating systems for rock climbing and rope climbing and even some variations between the US and Europe.
If you assume this sounds like an individual sport, you’d be right. ____19____ Climbers are constantly sharing, encouraging one another and training together. “As long as you approach it with an open mind and maintain a positive and friendly manner around other climbers, I do not doubt you’ll experience the same in return,” says Carlo Traversi, a professional climber. “Most people I know have met most of their best friends and significant others through climbing. ____20____”
A. But it doesn’t feel that way.
B. Outside, the finish is less obvious.
C. The experts have given instructions.
D. Climbs receive a set grade based on the difficulty.
E. Getting into rock climbing is easier than you think.
F. The fun lies in discovering how to complete a route.
G. It tends to be a supportive and community-focused activity.

My wife has dementia (痴呆), so she isn’t always ____28____ of her surroundings. ____29____, when she heard the folk music, she recognized it and started to sway and smile,” he added.
____30____ by their story, I felt an overwhelming urge to offer him the CD as a present. “Please, take it.” I insisted. He was taken aback, mentioning the CD was rare and insisting on ____31____ the cost. I assured him that it was my pleasure to ____32____ it to them.
From that day on the husband became a(n) ____33____ visitor to the store. He would bring his wife along. Whenever she was there, I would play the great music, and her eyes would ____34____ with the same smile. It was not a cure for her disease, but a(n) ____35____ for her soul.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Matt Morrison was worried. He and his family moved here two months ago. His parents were away in the city when high school was dismissed early due to typhoon warnings. Matt fought his panic, pushed open the back door and went into the outside basement with his dog Buster. Minutes later, the wind stopped. But the stillness was scarier than the wind. Matt opened the heavy basement door. To the west, the wind returned and beat at a loose window of Mrs. Laney’s house and the big old tree beside it. Mrs. Laney was his neighbor, living just up the road.
Matt realized the old lady suffering from a leg ache probably couldn’t walk down to the basement in time. Should he check on her? But what could he do? Besides he wasn’t sure if she’d even want him to check on her. Mrs. Laney had got mad at him several times because Buster had dug up her flower beds.
The wind was growing louder by the minute. Matt made his decision. He raced up Mrs. Laney’s steps, and pounded on her door. No answer. Matt turned the door handle and stepped inside. Finding Mrs. Laney was sitting in the rocking chair in her bedroom, Matt shouted, “It’s a typhoon! We have to take cover!” However, Mrs. Laney struggled to her feet and said it was nothing more than a strong wind.
In a panic, Matt grabbed her arm and urged her to come with him. He pulled her into the bathroom and told her to stay in the bathtub (浴缸) because it would be safer. Though unwilling, Mrs. Laney agreed. Under Matt’s guidance, Mrs. Laney put her arms over her head. Matt lay down on the bathroom floor next to the bathtub.
Suddenly, something crashed outside. The whole house shook, and Matt felt rain on his face — the roof was gone. Soon the house stopped shaking and the storm had passed. “That was a frightening typhoon!” Mrs. Laney said, her face white with fear and also gratitude. Then she suggested going out to see the damage caused by the storm. Matt stood up and nodded.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式作答。
Matt pulled the door open, and was shocked.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Matt invited Mrs. Laney to stay in his house for a few days.

No matter where the seeds are planted, getting fruits and vegetables is the ultimate goal.
To make it simple for any family to have a garden, the two decided to “provide the families that need it most with a beginner-friendly garden kit”. Called Little Green Gardens, the kits contain ready-to-use fruit and vegetable garden beds. As of now, 5,000 garden kits have already been distributed to help feed families. Along with the tools to grow a garden, each kit contains instructions like soil preparation, plant selection, planting techniques and so on.
Frank says they’ve received a positive response to their mission, which is making a difference. More families have improved their life through it. Many celebrities have gotten on board and been helping to spread the message, using their social media platforms to share the importance of gardening.
“The movement is about reconnecting to our roots, to real food, and to a path to a sustainable, healthy lifestyle. I want to inspire families across America—even the globe—to experience the magic of growing your own food. We can all have an incredible influence on the health and happiness by gardening more,” says Kimbal.
4. What inspired Kimbal to initiate the Million Gardens Movement?
A. Poor conditions in deserts. B. Inaccessibility of fresh food to people.
C. The problem of food safety. D. His experience in gardening initiatives.
5. What can be learned about Little Green Gardens?
A. They are meant for farmers. B. They contain usable plant seeds.
C. They are used to store food. D. They give guidance on gardening.
6. Why does the author mention celebrities?

With this in mind, he came to the owner of Modern Farmer magazine, Frank Giustra, and asked him to cooperate on the massive project. With Kimbal’s experience in gardening initiatives combined with Frank’s experience in food charity, the two joined forces to create MGM.(这一切始于Kimbal意识到,许多人生活在“食物荒漠”地区,根本无法买到新鲜果蔬。有鉴于此,他找到《现代农夫》杂志的老板弗兰克·朱斯特拉,邀请他共同开展这项宏大项目。金巴尔在园艺倡议方面经验丰富,弗兰克则在食物慈善领域颇有建树,两人一拍即合,携手创立了“百万花园运动”。)”可知,人们无法获得新鲜食物激励Kimbal发起百万花园运动。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Called Little Green Gardens, the kits contain ready-to-use fruit and vegetable garden beds. As of now, 5,000 garden kits have already been distributed to help feed families. Along with the tools to grow a garden, each kit contains instructions like soil preparation, plant selection, planting techniques and so on.(这些名为“小绿园”的工具套装包含即用型果蔬种植床。截至目前,已发放了5000套花园工具套装,用以养活家庭。每套工具除了配备种植花园所需的工具外,还附有土壤准备、植物选择、种植技巧等方面的说明。)”可知,Little Green Gardens在园艺方面提供指导。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Frank says they’ve received a positive response to their mission, which is making a difference.(弗兰克说,他们的使命得到了积极的回应,这正在产生影响。)”和“Many celebrities have gotten on board and been helping to spread the message, using their social media platforms to share the importance of gardening.(许多名人也加入其中,利用自己的社交媒体平台宣传园艺的重要性,助力传播这一理念。)”可知,作者提到名人是为了展示这个活动的影响。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Kimbal Musk recently started the Million Gardens Movement (MGM) to help feed families.

C
The race is on to reverse (彻底转变) global biodiversity loss. However, a recent review of 400 global businesses by the World Benchmarking Alliance found that just five percent have an understanding of the true effects and consequences of their actions to nature. Researchers have also highlighted the challenges faced by organizations when it comes to delivering ambitious nature-positive targets, particularly in the absence of wider systems change.
The problem, according to Sam Sinclair, co-founder and director of Biodiversify, is that biodiversity lacks one simpatico standard of assessment and measurement. “The value of biodiversity is so context-dependent.” He gives the example of a non-native UK species, which should be removed from British woodlands but is protected in its natural East Himalayan habitat. When it comes to improving a company’s impact on biodiversity, there’s no one-size-fits-all approach. “The amount of variation between companies is absolutely enormous,” says Sinclair.
There is a range of different reasons why a company would want to improve its relationship with biodiversity. “Companies are now waking up to the fact that if they don’t stop impacting the systems on which they depend, their businesses will cease to operate,” Sinclair explains. He points to the world’s cotton market, 24 percent of which comes from an extremely climate-sensitive region of India, as an example. “From a business viewpoint, the loss of that market would be a major problem.” However, Sinclair says that, from his experience, a lot of businesses have taken the issue very seriously and genuinely want to do the right thing.
It’s unavoidable, says Sinclair, that mistakes will be made over the next few years. “The speed at which this area of suitability has progressed is breathtaking, especially when you consider that it took us 15 years to get to where we are today with carbon emissions (排放). We were the first organization to publish a detailed corporate biodiversity strategy in 2020. Now, four years on, companies left, right and centre are doing it and there’s a new biodiversity start-up every week.”
8. What do the findings show about the 400 businesses?
A. Few act to protect the environment. B. They need to change management.
C. Most don’t realize their harm to nature. D. They can’t meet environmental targets.
9. What does the underlined word “simpatico” mean in paragraph 2?
A. Varied. B. Independent. C. Specific. D. Consistent.
10. How does Sinclair find the future of biodiversity?
A It’s promising. B. It’s worrying. C. It’s unpredictable. D. It’s unstable.
11. What might be the best title of the text?
A. Sustainable start-ups on the rise B. Biodiversity loss out of control
C. Corporate cooperation in demand D. Nature-positive efforts under way
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是全球企业在应对生物多样性丧失方面所做的努力、面临的挑战以及未来的发展趋势。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“However, a recent review of 400 global businesses by the World Benchmarking Alliance found that just five percent have an understanding of the true effects and consequences of their actions to nature.(然而,世界基准联盟(World Benchmarking Alliance)最近对400家全球企业进行的一项调查发现,只有5%的企业了解自己的行为对自然的真正影响和后果。)”可知,调查结果显示大多数企业没有意识到它们对自然的危害。故选C。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“He gives the example of a non-native UK species, which should be removed from British woodlands but is protected in its natural East Himalayan habitat.(他举了一个非英国本土物种的例子,这种物种应该从英国的林地中移除,但在东喜马拉雅的自然栖息地受到保护。)”可知,生物多样性缺乏一种统一的评估和测量标准,划线词simpatico的意思是“一致的”,和consistent意思相近。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“The speed at which this area of suitability has progressed is breathtaking, especially when you consider that it took us 15 years to get to where we are today with carbon emissions (排放). We were the first organization to publish a detailed corporate biodiversity strategy in 2020. Now, four years on, companies left, right and centre are doing it and there’s a new biodiversity start-up every week.(这一适宜领域(此处指生物多样性相关领域)的发展速度令人惊叹,尤其是考虑到我们在碳排放问题上达到如今的水平花了15年时间。2020年,我们机构率先发布了一份详细的企业生物多样性战略。如今,四年过去了,各行各业的公司都在开展相关工作,而且每周都有新的生物多样性初创企业涌现。)”可知,Sinclair觉得生物多样性的未来是有前途的。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是最后一段“The speed at which this area of suitability has progressed is breathtaking, especially when you consider that it took us 15 years to get to where we are today with carbon emissions (排放). We were the first organization to publish a detailed corporate biodiversity strategy in 2020. Now, four years on, companies left, right and centre are doing it and there’s a new biodiversity start-up every week.(这一适宜领域(此处指生物多样性相关领域)的发展速度令人惊叹,尤其是考虑到我们在碳排放问题上达到如今的水平花了15年时间。2020年,我们机构率先发布了一份详细的企业生物多样性战略。如今,四年过去了,各行各业的公司都在开展相关工作,而且每周都有新的生物多样性初创企业涌现。)”可知,本文主要讲的是全球企业在应对生物多样性丧失方面所做的努力、面临的挑战以及未来的发展趋势,因此最好的题目是D选项“Nature-positive efforts under way(致力于促进自然向好的行动正在开展)”,故选D。
D
The makers of some brain-monitoring headsets and other consumer neurotechnology (神经技术) devices may not have enough privacy and data-sharing policies. An analysis of these companies’ policies shows many gather users’ neural data and maintain the right to share or sell the information without additional permission from users.
The findings come from a report by the Neurorights Foundation in New York. It looked at 30 companies that sell neurotech devices or services directly to consumers with promised benefits. “Our position is that brain data is at least as sensitive as personal health data,” says Rafael Yuste, co-founder of the Neurorights Foundation. “Why should people be okay about sharing brain data that can be decoded (解码)?”
The Neurorights Foundation found that 29 of the 30 companies could access customers’ neural data without proper sharing limits. Two-thirds allowed for the sharing of customer data, almost another third left this unclear, and just one company specifically said it wouldn’t. Furthermore, only 12 of the 30 companies gave customers both the right to withdraw permission for data processing and the right to request data deletion.
Among firms contacted for comment, a few pushed back on the foundation’s report. The Sweden-based company Flow Neuroscience told New Scientist that it doesn’t collect any neural data. And Tre Azam, founder of the UK-based company MyndPlay, said it never has access to or stores “brainwave data or any other data” from customers. He added that the firm’s software runs locally on devices without sending any information to cloud computing servers.
The problem is the absence of US government regulations, says Yuste, in comparison with the data privacy protections of the European Union. But that could be changing: Colorado became the first US state to add privacy protections for brain data. The Neurorights Foundation described it as a “game changer”. It also served as a beginning and inspiration, says Yuste.
12. What did the Neurorights Foundation report focus on?
A. Risk of getting data from brains. B. Neurotech experiences of users.
C. Security of collected brain data. D. Unseen data-processing policies.
13. Why does the author list the figures in paragraph 3?
A. To guarantee users’ fundamental rights. B. To prove insufficiency of privacy policies.
C. To draw readers’ attention to brain data. D. To reveal illegalities of certain companies.
14 What is paragraph 4 mainly about?
A. Consequences of poor regulation. B. Examples of trustworthy companies.
C. Challenges of neurotech development. D. Disagreements from the businesses.
15. What might the author continue talking about?
A. The US government’s creative moves. B. More upcoming brain data protections.
C. The European Union’s privacy policies. D. More problems with neurotech devices.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了消费级神经技术设备在隐私和数据共享政策方面存在的问题,以及相关应对举措。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The makers of some brain-monitoring headsets and other consumer neurotechnology (神经技术) devices may not have enough privacy and data-sharing policies. An analysis of these companies’ policies shows many gather users’ neural data and maintain the right to share or sell the information without additional permission from users.(一些脑监测头戴设备及其他消费级神经技术设备的制造商,可能在隐私和数据共享政策方面存在不足。对这些公司政策的分析显示,许多公司收集用户的神经数据,并保留在未经用户额外许可的情况下共享或出售这些信息的权利)”和第二段“The findings come from a report by the Neurorights Foundation in New York.(这些发现来自纽约Neurorights Foundation的一份报告)”可知,Neurorights Foundation的报告关注的是未被关注的数据处理政策。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The Neurorights Foundation found that 29 of the 30 companies could access customers’ neural data without proper sharing limits. Two-thirds allowed for the sharing of customer data, almost another third left this unclear, and just one company specifically said it wouldn’t. Furthermore, only 12 of the 30 companies gave customers both the right to withdraw permission for data processing and the right to request data deletion.(Neurorights Foundation发现,30家公司中有29家能够在没有适当共享限制的情况下获取客户的神经数据。其中三分之二的公司允许共享客户数据,近三分之一的公司对此未作明确说明,只有一家公司明确表示不会共享。此外,30家公司中只有12家同时赋予了客户撤回数据处理许可和请求删除数据的权利)”可推知,作者在第三段列出这些数字是为了证明隐私政策的不足。故选B。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Among firms contacted for comment, a few pushed back on the foundation’s report. The Sweden-based company Flow Neuroscience told New Scientist that it doesn’t collect any neural data. And Tre Azam, founder of the UK-based company MyndPlay, said it never has access to or stores “brainwave data or any other data” from customers.(在被联系征求意见的公司中,有几家对基金会的报告提出了异议。瑞典的Flow Neuroscience公司告诉《新科学家》杂志,该公司不收集任何神经数据。英国MyndPlay公司的创始人Tre Azam表示,该公司从未获取或存储过客户的“脑电波数据或任何其他数据”)”可知,第四段主要讲的是企业方面的不同意见。故选D。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“But that could be changing: Colorado became the first US state to add privacy protections for brain data. The Neurorights Foundation described it as a “game changer”. It also served as a beginning and inspiration, says Yuste.(但这种情况可能正在改变:科罗拉多州成为美国第一个为大脑数据增加隐私保护的州。Neurorights Foundation称这一举措具有“变革性”。尤斯特还表示,它也起到了开端和启发的作用)”可推知,作者接下来可能会继续谈论更多即将出台的大脑数据保护措施。故选B。

How to start rock climbing
Whether you watched “Free Solo” or the Paris Olympics, you might be wondering how to start rock climbing. ____16____ There are gyms and outdoor areas available everywhere. And at its most basic level, rock climbing is what you’d expect. You put on special shoes, dust your hands with chalk and climb rocks, whether they’re made of plastic or sandstone. “This can translate from short climbs of only a few feet that take mere seconds into long routes that take weeks,” says James Lucas, a decades-long climber.
Regardless of the type of climb, the goal is to reach some predetermined end point. In the gym, that’s either the final hold or the top of the climbing wall. ____17____ Sometimes completing a task might mean climbing on top of a cliff (峭壁). Other times you’ll simply reach the final hold of a climb, not unlike the gym.
_____18_____ Just as a runner might try to shave seconds off their mile time, climbers measure progress by pushing higher and higher climbing grades. There are different climbing rating systems for rock climbing and rope climbing and even some variations between the US and Europe.
If you assume this sounds like an individual sport, you’d be right. ____19____ Climbers are constantly sharing, encouraging one another and training together. “As long as you approach it with an open mind and maintain a positive and friendly manner around other climbers, I do not doubt you’ll experience the same in return,” says Carlo Traversi, a professional climber. “Most people I know have met most of their best friends and significant others through climbing. ____20____”
A. But it doesn’t feel that way.
B. Outside, the finish is less obvious.
C. The experts have given instructions.
D. Climbs receive a set grade based on the difficulty.
E. Getting into rock climbing is easier than you think.
F. The fun lies in discovering how to complete a route.
G. It tends to be a supportive and community-focused activity.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. D 19. A 20. G

【16题详解】
开头“Whether you watched “Free Solo” or the Paris Olympics, you might be wondering how to start rock climbing.(无论你是看了《徒手攀岩》,还是关注了巴黎奥运会,你可能都想知道如何开始攀岩)”提到看了相关影片后可能想知道如何开始攀岩,后文“There are gyms and outdoor areas available everywhere. And at its most basic level, rock climbing is what you’d expect. You put on special shoes, dust your hands with chalk and climb rocks, whether they’re made of plastic or sandstone.(到处都有攀岩的健身房和户外场地。从最基础层面来说,攀岩就是你所想象的那样。你穿上特制的鞋子,在手上抹上防滑粉,然后攀爬岩石,无论这些岩石是塑料材质的还是砂岩材质的)”说到处都是攀岩的健身房和户外区域,且攀岩基本就是穿上特殊鞋子、手上抹粉去攀爬,这都说明攀岩是很容易开展的,E选项“Getting into rock climbing is easier than you think.(攀岩比你想象的要容易)”说明了攀岩是很容易的,承上启下,符合语境,故选E。
【17题详解】
空前“In the gym, that’s either the final hold or the top of the climbing wall.(在健身房里,终点要么是最后一个抓点,要么是攀岩墙的顶部)”说明的是在健身房里攀岩的目标是什么,空格处应该说在室外的目标是什么,B选项“Outside, the finish is less obvious.(在户外,终点不那么明显)”说明的是在户外的目标不是很明显,和后文的“Sometimes completing a task might mean climbing on top of a cliff (峭壁). Other times you’ll simply reach the final hold of a climb, not unlike the gym.(有时,完成一项任务可能意味着要攀爬到悬崖顶端。而其他时候,你只需像在健身房里一样,到达攀爬路线的最后一个抓点即可)”具体的终点契合,符合语境,故选B。
【18题详解】
空后“Just as a runner might try to shave seconds off their mile time, climbers measure progress by pushing higher and higher climbing grades. There are different climbing rating systems for rock climbing and rope climbing and even some variations between the US and Europe.(就像跑步者可能会努力缩短每英里的用时一样,攀岩者通过挑战越来越高的攀岩等级来衡量自己的进步。攀岩和绳索攀岩有不同的攀岩评级系统,甚至美国和欧洲的评级系统也存在一些差异)”主要介绍的是攀岩的评级系统,D选项“Climbs receive a set grade based on the difficulty.(攀岩路线会根据难度设定一个固定等级)”说明攀岩也有等级评定的办法,引出后文的评级系统,符合语境,故选D。
【19题详解】
空前“If you assume this sounds like an individual sport, you’d be right.(如果你觉得攀岩是一项个人运动,那你说得没错)”说明攀岩可以被认为是个人运动,空后“Climbers are constantly sharing, encouraging one another and training together.(攀岩者们不断分享经验、互相鼓励,还一起训练)”说明了攀岩也是涉及互动的,和前面的“个人运动”相反,A选项“But it doesn’t feel that way.(但感觉并非如此)”中的but表转折,因此后文和“个人运动”相反的内容,符合语境,故选A。
【20题详解】
空前“Most people I know have met most of their best friends and significant others through climbing.(我认识的大多数人,他们大多数最好的朋友和重要的另一半都是通过攀岩结识的)”说明了攀岩可以帮助人交友,G选项“It tends to be a supportive and community-focused activity.(它往往是一种支持性的、以社区为中心的活动)”说明了攀岩是以社区为中心的活动,与前文说的可以结交好友一致,因此承接上文,符合语境,故选G。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲的是苏州丝绸博物馆的受欢迎程度、历史背景、展品特色以及国际影响力。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它位于历史名城苏州,去年接待了52.2万游客。句中谓语是welcomed,空格处用非谓语动词,it指的是前面的Suzhou Silk Museum,和locate之间是逻辑动宾关系,因此用过去分词表被动,作状语,位于句首,首字母大写,故填Located。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意:据统计,到2025年4月,该博物馆接待了近20万游客。由By April 2025可知,句子时态用过去完成时,表示过去的过去已经完成的动作,因此空格处是had received。故填had received。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:许多游客,尤其是年轻人,会在博物馆的礼品店驻足,那里出售各种丝绸制成的或受丝绸启发的产品,一些游客穿着传统的中国丝绸服装来到这里。be dressed in是固定短语,意为“穿着”,因此空格处用介词in,故填in。
【39题详解】
考查不定式。句意:中国被认为是世界上最早养蚕的国家。country前有序数词the first,空格处用不定式作后置定语,故填to raise。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:自明清以来,苏州一直是一个异常活跃的丝绸中心,供应国内外市场,其产品影响着全国的潮流。center是可数名词的单数形式,表泛指,空格处用不定冠词,exceptionally是元音音素开头,因此不定冠词用an,故填an。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:自明清以来,苏州一直是一个异常活跃的丝绸中心,供应国内外市场,其产品影响着全国的潮流。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,Suzhou和products之间是所属关系,因此用表所属的关系代词whose引导定语从句,故填whose。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:苏州丝绸博物馆现在坐落在1931年建立的一家丝绸工厂的原址上。空格处用形容词original作定语,修饰名词site,original意为“原先的”,故填original。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:除了宋代和明代的丝绸服装,展览还展出了漳缎,这是一种起源于福建的具有艺术特色的丝绸织物。空格处用副词修饰形容词distinctive,artistic的副词是artistically,意为“艺术方面地”。故填artistically。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:制作漳缎的机器长达8米。空格处用名词作宾语,long的名词是length,是不可数名词,意为“长度”,故填length。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:该博物馆还与孔子学院合作,在威尼斯展出精选丝绸服装,扩大其国际影响力。句中谓语是has also worked,空格处用非谓语动词,The museum和expand之间是主谓关系,因此用现在分词表主动,作状语,故填expanding。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Matt Morrison was worried. He and his family moved here two months ago. His parents were away in the city when high school was dismissed early due to typhoon warnings. Matt fought his panic, pushed open the back door and went into the outside basement with his dog Buster. Minutes later, the wind stopped. But the stillness was scarier than the wind. Matt opened the heavy basement door. To the west, the wind returned and beat at a loose window of Mrs. Laney’s house and the big old tree beside it. Mrs. Laney was his neighbor, living just up the road.
Matt realized the old lady suffering from a leg ache probably couldn’t walk down to the basement in time. Should he check on her? But what could he do? Besides, he wasn’t sure if she’d even want him to check on her. Mrs. Laney had got mad at him several times because Buster had dug up her flower beds.
The wind was growing louder by the minute. Matt made his decision. He raced up Mrs. Laney’s steps, and pounded on her door. No answer. Matt turned the door handle and stepped inside. Finding Mrs. Laney was sitting in the rocking chair in her bedroom, Matt shouted, “It’s a typhoon! We have to take cover!” However, Mrs. Laney struggled to her feet and said it was nothing more than a strong wind.
In a panic, Matt grabbed her arm and urged her to come with him. He pulled her into the bathroom and told her to stay in the bathtub (浴缸) because it would be safer. Though unwilling, Mrs. Laney agreed. Under Matt’s guidance, Mrs. Laney put her arms over her head. Matt lay down on the bathroom floor next to the bathtub.
Suddenly, something crashed outside. The whole house shook, and Matt felt rain on his face — the roof was gone. Soon the house stopped shaking and the storm had passed. “That was a frightening typhoon!” Mrs. Laney said, her face white with fear and also gratitude. Then she suggested going out to see the damage caused by the storm. Matt stood up and nodded.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式作答。
Matt pulled the door open, and was shocked.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Matt invited Mrs. Laney to stay in his house for a few days.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Matt pulled the door open, and was shocked. The once cozy living room was now a disaster zone. The ceiling had collapsed, leaving a gaping hole where the roof used to be. Debris littered every corner, and the rocking chair Mrs. Laney had been sitting in moments before was now splintered against the far wall. Mrs. Laney gasped, tears streaming down her weathered face as she surveyed the destruction of her home. Matt gently squeezed her shoulder, offering silent comfort. Even Buster, who had somehow found his way over, whimpered softly at the devastation.
Matt invited Mrs. Laney to stay in his house for a few days. She accepted with trembling gratitude, clutching his hand tightly. Later that evening, when Matt’s parents called to check on him, he explained everything, and they praised his bravery. Mrs. Laney smiled warmly at Matt, her earlier annoyance about her flower beds forgotten. “You’re a remarkable young man,” she said, patting Buster’s head affectionately. What had started as a neighborly duty had blossomed into a genuine friendship, proving that courage and kindness could weather any storm.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了台风来袭时,Matt的父母不在家,他带着狗躲进地下室。风停后他发现邻居老妇人Laney可能无法及时到地下室躲避,尽管两人有过不愉快,他仍决定去救助。Matt冲进Laney家,劝说她躲进浴缸,自己守在旁边。台风掀翻屋顶,风暴过后,Laney心怀恐惧与感激,两人决定出去查看损失。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Matt拉开门,吓了一跳。”可知,第一段可描写台风过后,Matt和Mrs. Laney打开门所看到的她家中一片狼藉、遭受严重破坏的景象,以及两人对此的反应。
②由第二段首句内容“Matt邀请Mrs. Laney在他家里住几天。”可知,第二段可描写Matt邀请Mrs. Laney暂时住到自己家,Mrs. Laney感激接受,随后Matt向父母说明情况并获赞扬,两人消除隔阂,邻里情谊升华成真挚友谊。
2.续写线索:受损情况——Mrs. Laney流泪——Matt安慰——Mrs. Laney接受Matt的邀请——Matt父母表扬Matt——Laney表扬Matt——培养友谊
