He examined my face, “Hmmm,” he said quietly. “Are you a model?” Is he kidding? No way would anyone ever confuse me with a fashion model. I was ugly. After all, I had the scar.
The accident happened in fourth grade, when a neighbour boy threw a sharp stone through the side of my face. After a three-hour operation, a huge bandage covered half of my face for several months.
“You’ll always be pretty to me,” Dad sighed, “even if you aren’t to the rest of the world.” Right. Thanks. As if I couldn’t hear the unkind words of the other kids at school. As if I couldn’t see how different I looked from the pretty girls the teachers often paid attention to. As if I didn’t look at myself in the bathroom mirror from time to time. In a culture that values beauty, an ugly girl is not accepted.
“Of course I’m not a model,” I replied. The doctor crossed his arms over his chest and looked at me. “Since you’re not a model, what brought you here today?” The room began to swim before me, as my eyes were full of tears.
The doctor sat down beside me. His voice was low and soft. “Let me tell you what I see. I see a beautiful woman. Not a perfect woman, but a beautiful woman. Even Elizabeth Taylor has a tiny scar on her forehead,” he said in a low voice. Then he paused a while. “When a person falls in love, if their mate has an imperfection, that imperfection becomes special.” As tears were rolling down my face, he said, “You are a very attractive woman with a very small imperfection. Whether you know it or not, it makes you special.”
I left his office, not with the scar removed from my face, but with a tear removed from my heart.
4. How did the woman get a scar on her face?
A. She was born with the scar. B. She was injured by her neighbor.
C. She fell over a stone by accident. D. She had an unsuccessful operation.
5. From the third paragraph we can learn that the writer ______.
A. felt much better for her father’s comfort
B. was eager to make friends at school
C. was extremely upset about her looks
D. hated the teachers who ignored her
6. The doctor helped the writer understand that ______.
A. a thing of beauty is a joy forever
B. a good medicine tastes bitter
C. little imperfection makes perfect

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“As if I couldn’t hear the unkind words of the other kids at school.(好像我听不到学校里其他孩子的不友善的话。)”和“In a culture that values beauty, an ugly girl is not accepted.(在重视美的文化中,丑女孩是不被接受的。)”可知,因为脸上的疤,学校里其他孩子会对作者说不友善的话,作者认为自己的疤很丑,而丑女孩是不被别人接受的。由此可推知,作者对自己的长相感到极度沮丧。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“When a person falls in love, if their mate has an imperfection, that imperfection becomes special.(当一个人坠入爱河时,如果他们的伴侣有一个缺点,那么这个缺点就变得特别了。)”和“You are a very attractive woman with a very small imperfection. Whether you know it or not, it makes you special.(你是一个很有魅力的女人,有一点小瑕疵。不管你知不知道,它让你与众不同。)”可知,医生告诉作者,不完美使她变得不同,这正是她的特别之处,再结合最后一段“I left his office, not with the scar removed from ray face, but with a tear removed from my heart.(我离开了他的办公室,不是把脸上的疤去掉,而是把我心中的泪水去掉。)”可知,作者明白了医生的话,不再因为自己的疤而困扰,那正是自己的特别之处。由此可知,医生帮助作者明白了“有一点不完美就是完美。”故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“The doctor sat down beside me. His voice was low and soft. “Let me tell you what I see. I see a beautiful woman.”(医生在我身边坐下。他的声音低沉而柔和。“让我来告诉你我看到的是什么。我看到的是一个美丽的女人。”)”以及后文医生的鼓励和启发可知,医生以直率而富有启发性的方式帮助作者认识并接受自己的不完美,因此最适合用“直率且富有启发性”来形容他。故选D。
C
Fresh fish should have a mild smell. Strong fishy smells are the first signs to go bad. How do the fishy smells come from?
It can be several days from when the fish are caught to when they reach the supermarket. In that time, bacteria that grow naturally in fish start to consume a substance called trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO)in fish. These bacteria change TMAO into trimethylamine (TMA), the substance responsible for the fishy smells. Bacteria in fish can also change lysine(赖氨酸)into cadaverine(尸胺), a substance that’s associated with breaking down the fish once they are caught and giving off fishy smell.
Chemical reactions can also lead to fishy smells. This happens through the oxidation(氧化)of fat. Fish are an important source of omega-3 fatty acids. When these fats are exposed to oxygen, they oxidize and break down into the substance that you can smell.
To slow down the fishy smell, what is beyond question is that the less time between when the fish are caught and when they reach the kitchen, the better. But today, fish are often flown across the globe. To keep smell-producing bacteria at bay, the fish must be frozen or kept at the low temperature possible as soon as they are caught and cleaned.
Controlling fat oxidation can function as well, especially for fattier fish species. While freezing slows bacterial growth, it does not stop fat oxidation. This reaction will occur as long as oxygen is present. Fatty fish are usually not frozen because, despite the cold temperature, they’re going to oxidize pretty fast unless they are stored in a low oxygen container. That’s why those species are often canned.
It’s also important to remember that smell is not always an indicator of safety, especially in processed fish products. “What you might consider the fishy smell may be a delicacy in another culture,” said Carl A. Batt, a professor of food science at Cornell University.
8. Which of the following has the fishy smell?
A. Fish fat. B. TMAO. C. Cadaverine. D. Lysine.
9. What is the best way to reduce the fishy smell of fat fish species?
A. Drying them in the air. B. Storing them in closed containers.
C. Carefully cleaning them. D. Exposing them to rich oxygen.
10. What is Carl A. Batt’s attitude to the fishy smell?
A. Objective.
B. Negative.
C. Acceptable.
D. Unclear.
11. How is the text organized?
A. Topic—Example—Conclusion. B. Topic—Comparison—Opinion.
C. Question——Cause——Solution. D. Question—Effect—Opinion.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了鱼腥味产生的原因以及减少鱼腥味的方法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“Bacteria in fish can also change lysine(赖氨酸)into cadaverine(尸胺), a substance that’s associated with breaking down the fish once they are caught and giving off fishy smell.( 鱼类中的细菌还可以将赖氨酸转化为尸胺,这种物质与鱼类被捕获后分解并散发出腥味有关。)”可知,有鱼腥味的是尸胺。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。文章倒数第二段讲到“This reaction will occur as long as oxygen is present. Fatty fish are usually not frozen because, despite the cold temperature, they’re going to oxidize pretty fast unless they are stored in a low oxygen container. That’s why those species are often canned. (只要存在氧气,就会发生这种反应。脂肪鱼通常不会冷冻,因为尽管温度很低,但除非储存在低氧容器中,否则它们会很快氧化。这就是为什么这些物种经常被罐装的原因)”可知,减少肥鱼鱼腥味的最好方法是将它们储存在封闭的容器中。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“What you might consider the fishy smell may be a delicacy in another culture (或许你认为的这种鱼腥味在另一种文化中可能是一种美味)”可知,Carl A. Batt对鱼腥味的态度上客观的。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章第一段讲到“How do the fishy smells come from? (鱼腥味是怎么来的?)”提出问题,第二段讲到“It can be several days from when the fish are caught to when they reach the supermarket. (从鱼被捕获到到达超市可能需要几天时间。)”以及第三段讲到“Chemical reactions can also lead to fishy smells. (化学反应也会产生腥味)”是鱼腥味产生的原因,第四段讲到 “To slow down the fishy smell, what is beyond question is that the less time between when the fish are caught and when they reach the kitchen, the better. (为了减缓鱼的腥味,毫无疑问的是,从鱼被捕获到到达厨房的时间越短越好。)”,第五段讲到“Controlling fat oxidation can function as well, especially for fattier fish species. (控制脂肪氧化也可以发挥作用,尤其是对脂肪含量较高的鱼类。)”和第六段讲到“It’s also important to remember that smell is not always an indicator of safety, especially in processed fish products. (同样重要的是要记住,气味并不总是安全的指标,尤其是在加工鱼类产品中。)”是解决方案。可知,这篇文章的组织结构是:问题——原因——解决方案。故选C。
D
Each year, more than 1.2 billion new smartphones are produced worldwide. This process consumes vast amounts of energy and natural resources, while also generating huge quantities of electronic waste, as people often replace perfectly functional devices every few years. To address this challenge, researchers have proposed a new approach — repurposing old phones into small-scale data centers for practical use.
“Innovation often begins not with something new, but with a new way of thinking about the old,” said Huber, an associate professor at MIT. The research team showed that outdated smartphones can be effectively transformed into tiny data centers capable of processing and storing data for real-world applications. They also discovered that building such a system is surprisingly inexpensive — about 8 euros per device — making it a highly affordable solution.
In their experiment, the scientists carefully removed the batteries to avoid chemical leakage and connected four old phones using 3D- printed cases. The system was powered externally and tested in practical environments. One successful trial involved underwater sea life monitoring, where the device automatically recorded and analyzed marine species — a task that usually requires divers. With this new device, the entire process could be done automatically underwater.
These repurposed devices hold promise for a wide range of smart city applications. For instance, they could be installed (安装) at bus stops to monitor passenger flow and help urban planners optimize transportation schedules and routes, making public transport run more smoothly and reducing waiting time for passengers. This method not only reduces e-waste but also supports sustainable digital solutions for modern communities.
“This is a smart, green rethink of our throwaway tech culture. Sustainability is not only about protecting the future — it is about reimagining the present, where yesterday’s devices become tomorrow’s opportunities,” added Ulrich, an Associate Professor of Software Engineering. With modest investment and creative thinking, outdated technology can serve new purposes, contributing to a greener digital society while helping to solve the growing problem of electronic waste.
12. What is a feature of the new approach mentioned?
A. It is cost-effective. B. It is data-based.
C. It is business-driven. D. It is skill-intensive.
13. What does the underwater trial show?
A. The risks of underwater tasks.
B. The necessity of innovative tools.
C. The challenges of ocean research.
D. The practicality of the new device.
14. What does the underlined word “optimize” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Improve. B. Observe. C. Cancel. D. Expand.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Electronic Engineering: An Eco-Digital Guide
B. Repurposing Old Phones: A Green Solution
C. The Problem of Global Smartphone Waste
D. The Sustainability of Smart City Development
【答案】12. A 13. D 14. A 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了研究人员提出将旧手机改造成小型数据中心这一新方法,既减少电子垃圾又支持可持续数字方案。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They also discovered that building such a system is surprisingly inexpensive — about 8 euros per device — making it a highly affordable solution.(他们还发现,构建这样一个系统的成本出奇地低——每个设备约8欧元——使其成为一个非常实惠的解决方案。)”可知,新方法的特点是成本效益高。故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“One successful trial involved underwater sea life monitoring, where the device automatically recorded and analyzed marine species — a task that usually requires divers. With this new device, the entire process could be done automatically underwater.(一次成功的试验涉及水下海洋生物监测,该设备自动记录和分析海洋物种——这项任务通常需要潜水员。有了这个新设备,整个过程可以在水下自动完成。)”可知,水下试验展示了新设备的实用性。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“For instance, they could be installed (安装) at bus stops to monitor passenger flow and help urban planners optimize transportation schedules and routes, making public transport run more smoothly and reducing waiting time for passengers.(例如,它们可以安装在公交车站,监测客流量,帮助城市规划者optimize交通时刻表和路线,使公共交通运行更加顺畅,减少乘客的等待时间。)”可知,使公共交通运行更加顺畅,减少乘客的等待时间,所以此处指帮助城市规划者优化交通时刻表和路线,optimize意为“改善,优化”。A. Improve改善;B. Observe观察;C. Cancel取消;D. Expand扩大。故选A。
15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段中“To address this challenge, researchers have proposed a new approach — repurposing old phones into small-scale data centers for practical use.(为了应对这一挑战,研究人员提出了一种新方法——将旧手机重新利用为小型数据中心,供实际使用。)”以及最后一段中“With modest investment and creative thinking, outdated technology can serve new purposes, contributing to a greener digital society while helping to solve the growing problem of electronic waste.(通过适度的投资和创造性思维,过时的技术可以服务于新的目的,有助于构建更绿色的数字社会,同时帮助解决日益严重的电子垃圾问题。)”可知,文章主要讲述了将旧手机改造成小型数据中心这一新方法,此方法既经济又环保,还能助力智慧城市应用并减少电子垃圾,所以“Repurposing Old Phones: A Green Solution(旧手机重新利用:一种绿色解决方案)”作为标题最合适。故选B。

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。
There was a little boy named Johnson, who lived with his father in their attractive little cottage near a forest. They didn’t have much but were content with the little they had. Every day after he came home from school, Johnson would accompany his father to the forest to collect firewood.
One day, when Johnson was in the forest collecting wood, he came across a puppy (幼犬) which seemed to be all alone. Johnson looked here and there for his owner but in vain. So he picked him up, put him under his shirt and carried him home. Having reached home, he said to his father, “Dad, I found a little puppy alone in the forest! Can we keep him, please?” Feeling Johnson’s happiness, his father couldn’t decide whether to keep the puppy or not at the time. He told him, “Oh, Johnson, that’s the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen! But we don’t have much. What will we do about his food and sleeping arrangement?” Johnson replied, “It’s OK. I’ll give him half of my meals and let him sleep with me in my bedroom.” Hearing this, Johnson’s father just nodded. Johnson was wild with joy, and he named the puppy Rigo.
From that day onwards, Johnson and Rigo became the best friends. Rigo followed Johnson wherever he went. When Johnson went to school, Rigo would patiently wait outside the classroom till the classes ended. At night, Rigo slept next to Johnson on his tiny bed and dreamed sweet dreams.
On one particular day, Rigo was sick, unable to follow Johnson so he stayed at home. That day it rained heavily, and the roads everywhere turned slippery (湿滑的). On his way home, Johnson was trying to reach home as soon as possible as he imagined Rigo waiting for him and keeping him warm. Unfortunately, Johnson missed seeing a hole at the side of the road and fell down the hole! He cried for help, hoping to be heard by passers-by. But due to the loud thundering and noise of the heavy rain, no one heard him.
注意:1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Johnson was trapped in the hole, not knowing whether he could be rescued.

Rigo barked and ran around the hole anxiously.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Johnson was trapped in the hole, not knowing whether he could be rescued. It had become very late, and Johnson’s mother was worried at home. She called the neighbors, and they formed a search party to find Johnson. Rigo too, was worried, and so he joined them all. They searched high and low but still couldn’t find Johnson. Rigo used his keen sense of smell and went sniffing everywhere. Then Rigo came closer to the hole.
Rigo barked and ran around the hole anxiously. Rigo’s behavior drew the search party’s attention, and they ran towards the hole. When they looked into it, they found Johnson sitting and shivering in the darkness, wet and cold. Some people comforted Johnson gently while others fetched a rope quickly and dropped it down to Johnson. He held onto one end and then they pulled him up. Everyone cheered, Rigo jumping around happily. Johnson’s mother hugged him tightly. Johnson thanked everyone for helping him and hugged Rigo lovingly for being his best friend and hero.

He examined my face, “Hmmm,” he said quietly. “Are you a model?” Is he kidding? No way would anyone ever confuse me with a fashion model. I was ugly. After all, I had the scar.
The accident happened in fourth grade when a neighbour boy threw a sharp stone through the side of my face. After a three-hour operation, a huge bandage covered half of my face for several months.
“You’ll always be pretty to me,” Dad sighed, “even if you aren’t to the rest of the world.” Right. Thanks. As if I couldn’t hear the unkind words of the other kids at school. As if I couldn’t see how different I looked from the pretty girls the teachers often paid attention to. As if I didn’t look at myself in the bathroom mirror from time to time. In a culture that values beauty, an ugly girl is not accepted.
“Of course I’m not a model,” I replied. The doctor crossed his arms over his chest and looked at me. “Since you’re not a model, what brought you here today?” The room began to swim before me, as my eyes were full of tears.
The doctor sat down beside me. His voice was low and soft. “Let me tell you what I see. I see a beautiful woman. Not a perfect woman, but a beautiful woman. Even Elizabeth Taylor has a tiny scar on her forehead,” he said in a low voice. Then he paused a while. “When a person falls in love, if their mate has an imperfection, that imperfection becomes special.” As tears were rolling down my face, he said, “You are a very attractive woman with a very small imperfection. Whether you know it or not, it makes you special.”
I left his office, not with the scar removed from my face, but with a tear removed from my heart.
4. How did the woman get a scar on her face?
A. She was born with the scar. B. She was injured by her neighbor.
C. She fell over a stone by accident. D. She had an unsuccessful operation.
5 From the third paragraph we can learn that the writer ______.

Fresh fish should have a mild smell. Strong fishy smells are the first signs to go bad. How do the fishy smells come from?
It can be several days from when the fish are caught to when they reach the supermarket. In that time, bacteria that grow naturally in fish start to consume a substance called trimethylamine N-oxide(TMAO)in fish. These bacteria change TMAO into trimethylamine (TMA), the substance responsible for the fishy smells. Bacteria in fish can also change lysine(赖氨酸)into cadaverine(尸胺), a substance that’s associated with breaking down the fish once they are caught and giving off fishy smell.
Chemical reactions can also lead to fishy smells. This happens through the oxidation(氧化)of fat. Fish are an important source of omega-3 fatty acids. When these fats are exposed to oxygen, they oxidize and break down into the substance that you can smell.
To slow down the fishy smell, what is beyond question is that the less time between when the fish are caught and when they reach the kitchen, the better. But today, fish are often flown across the globe. To keep smell-producing bacteria at bay, the fish must be frozen or kept at the low temperature possible as soon as they are caught and cleaned.
Controlling fat oxidation can function as well, especially for fattier fish species. While freezing slows bacterial growth, it does not stop fat oxidation. This reaction will occur as long as oxygen is present. Fatty fish are usually not frozen because, despite the cold temperature, they’re going to oxidize pretty fast unless they are stored in a low oxygen container. That’s why those species are often canned.
It’s also important to remember that smell is not always an indicator of safety, especially in processed fish products. “What you might consider the fishy smell may be a delicacy in another culture,” said Carl A. Batt, a professor of food science at Cornell University.
8. Which of the following has the fishy smell?
A. Fish fat. B. TMAO. C. Cadaverine. D. Lysine.
9. What is the best way to reduce the fishy smell of fat fish species?
A. Drying them in the air. B. Storing them in closed containers.
C. Carefully cleaning them. D. Exposing them to rich oxygen.
10. What is Carl A. Batt’s attitude to the fishy smell?
A. Objective.
B. Negative.
C. Acceptable.
D. Unclear.
11. How is the text organized?
A. Topic—Example—Conclusion. B. Topic—Comparison—Opinion.
C. Question——Cause——Solution. D. Question—Effect—Opinion.

Each year, more than 1.2 billion new smartphones are produced worldwide. This process consumes vast amounts of energy and natural resources, while also generating huge quantities of electronic waste, as people often replace perfectly functional devices every few years. To address this challenge, researchers have proposed a new approach — repurposing old phones into small-scale data centers for practical use.
“Innovation often begins not with something new, but with a new way of thinking about the old,” said Huber, an associate professor at MIT. The research team showed that outdated smartphones can be effectively transformed into tiny data centers capable of processing and storing data for real-world applications. They also discovered that building such a system is surprisingly inexpensive — about 8 euros per device — making it a highly affordable solution.
In their experiment, the scientists carefully removed the batteries to avoid chemical leakage and connected four old phones using 3D- printed cases. The system was powered externally and tested in practical environments. One successful trial involved underwater sea life monitoring, where the device automatically recorded and analyzed marine species — a task that usually requires divers. With this new device, the entire process could be done automatically underwater.
These repurposed devices hold promise for a wide range of smart city applications.

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。
There was a little boy named Johnson, who lived with his father in their attractive little cottage near a forest. They didn’t have much but were content with the little they had. Every day after he came home from school, Johnson would accompany his father to the forest to collect firewood.
One day, when Johnson was in the forest collecting wood, he came across a puppy (幼犬) which seemed to be all alone. Johnson looked here and there for his owner but in vain. So he picked him up, put him under his shirt and carried him home. Having reached home, he said to his father, “Dad, I found a little puppy alone in the forest! Can we keep him, please?” Feeling Johnson’s happiness, his father couldn’t decide whether to keep the puppy or not at the time. He told him, “Oh, Johnson, that’s the cutest puppy I’ve ever seen! But we don’t have much. What will we do about his food and sleeping arrangement?” Johnson replied, “It’s OK. I’ll give him half of my meals and let him sleep with me in my bedroom.” Hearing this, Johnson’s father just nodded. Johnson was wild with joy, and he named the puppy Rigo.
From that day onwards, Johnson and Rigo became the best friends. Rigo followed Johnson wherever he went. When Johnson went to school, Rigo would patiently wait outside the classroom till the classes ended. At night, Rigo slept next to Johnson on his tiny bed and dreamed sweet dreams.
On one particular day, Rigo was sick, unable to follow Johnson so he stayed at home. That day it rained heavily, and the roads everywhere turned slippery (湿滑的). On his way home, Johnson was trying to reach home as soon as possible as he imagined Rigo waiting for him and keeping him warm. Unfortunately, Johnson missed seeing a hole at the side of the road and fell down the hole! He cried for help, hoping to be heard by passers-by. But due to the loud thundering and noise of the heavy rain, no one heard him.
注意:1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Johnson was trapped in the hole, not knowing whether he could be rescued.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
