That youngsters were glued to online games on their smart phones was a great concern for Ngurang Meena, a school teacher in Nirjuli.The 30yearold social science teacher, who ran the Ngurang Learning Institute, an adult literacy centre, said that she felt disheartened when she read student papers.“The graph of student performance is falling every year.It breaks my heart whenever I see answer sheets — basic grammar skills are missing and there’s an absence of any cohesive (连贯的) expression.They lack guidance and their reading culture is almost zero,” Meena said.When her school and the centre she ran had to close due to infectious diseases, she planned to do something to address the problem.
Inspired by a similar proposal in Mizoram, Meena set up a bookshelf with around 80 books as well as some benches on the side of the road in Nirjuli on 30 August 2020, where passersby could spend time reading.The selections included motivational books, biographies and novels as well as comics for young children.“I have to please the minors with sweets to sit and read, but that is okay,” she laughed.
Meena’s bookshelf became a hit among youngsters who spent hours in the reading corner.Within two months, her effort became the talk of the town.
Now, generous contributions of books come in from the public and she is even receiving requests to set up such libraries in other parts of the state, including one in the capital, Itanagar.Since the tiny libraries are far from the main town, she also lends books out to those who want to read at home.
“I never thought that this would become such a big inspiration,” Meena said.“Since childhood, we have been told that books are our best friends.The next generation of kids is focused on games and other things.I don’t want them to head on the wrong track,” she added.
4. What’s the aim of Meena’s reading program?
A. To care for youngsters lacking in reading.
B. To help adults learn some cohesive expression.
C. To keep Ngurang Learning Institute running well.
D. To highlight the importance of reading for adults.
5. What did Meena do to encourage young kids to read more?
A. She offered some rewards to them.
B. She provided them with transportation.
C. She chose novels with beautiful covers.
D. She selected books covering every category.
6. Which words can best describe Meena’s libraries?
A. Small and useless.
B. Influential and meaningful.
C. Large but impractical.
D. Widespread but unwelcome.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Books:Sources of Knowledge
B. The Roadside Reading Corner
C. The Library:an Ideal place for the Young
D. New Ideas about Setting a Reading Plan
C
Hair that is tightly coiled(盘绕) offers the best protection against the sun’s potentially damaging rays, which could explain why this trait evolved in early humans in Africa and straighter hair emerged as some humans moved into cooler areas.
It has long been suggested that the reason our body hair became so fine that it is sometimes barely visible, while our scalp hair remained thick, is to prevent our heads from overheating in the sun. In our bipedal(双足行走的) ancestors, the beneficial shading effect of head hair may have outweighed its insulating effect.
Tina Lasisi at Penn State University wondered if the type of hair on a person’s head also makes a difference. To learn more, Lasisi and her colleagues put three different wigs(假发) on a thermal manikin—a model of the human body with heaters and sensors that is used to measure the thermal effects of clothes. One of the three wigs was straight, one had moderate curls(卷) and one had tight curls. Lasisi says the tightly coiled wig was within the range of curl found in people of recent African ancestry.
The team found that the hair’s type made a big difference to how much heat the head of the manikin gained from simulated sunshine at 30℃. The head with a straight wig gained less than half as much heat as a control head with no wig. The head wearing the moderately curled wig gained around a quarter as much heat and the head with the tightly curled wig gained less than a tenth as much as the no-wig control.
The researchers think that the curls reduce how much heat reaches the skin by increasing the gap between it and the hair surface. Making straight hair longer doesn’t achieve this because it lies flat, says Lasisi.
The team also found when wetting the manikins to simulate sweat, the head with no wig lost twice as much heat via evaporation as those with the wigs. However, having any head hair more than halves the amount of sweat required to prevent the head from gaining heat, with tightly coiled hair reducing this more than moderately curled or straight hair, the result shows.
“Any mechanism that could help cool the body, and at the same time save precious water, would definitely have been acted on strongly by natural selection,” says Joseph Graves at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University. The study findings are important because they could help change some people’s prejudiced views, says Graves.
8. What does the underlined word “trait” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Curl. B. Feature. C. Situation. D. Essence.
9. What will Tina Lasisi probably agree with?
A. The three wigs were made of hair from different races.
B. The head with no wig gained the least amount of heat from the sun.
C. Wearing long straight hair could reduce the heat reaching the skin.
D. The head without a wig had the best cooling effect of sweating.
10. For what purpose was the research carried out?
A. To gain insight into early humans. B. To prove all races are born equal.
C. To clarify a question. D. To learn about the use of wigs.
11. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Curly Hair Protects Us from the Sun B. Curly Hair Evolves into Straight Hair
C. Natural Selection Is What Really Counts D. A Study Changes Prejudiced Views
D
When babies are exposed to a variety of faces, they become more adept in recognizing and appreciating diversity, which can help reduce biases and prejudices as they grow. This is according to neuroscientist Saskia Koch of the Donders Institute and Radboud University.
Koch conducted her research using data from the Nijmegen longitudinal study. This study follows young people from infancy (婴儿期). First, the researchers looked at how frequently the teenagers had attended day care as babies. Then, the same youngsters were assigned the duty of playing a game when they reached the age of 17. In the game, they had to work with another person they couldn’t see. Both players had the same goal: find an object on a gameboard. Only the 17-year-old knew where the item was. The 17-year-olds had to communicate this location to each other without using words. They had to design communicative patterns that would assist the other person in locating the object. This could be accomplished, for example, by performing specific movements.
The 17-year-olds were informed they were playing with a 5-year-old in one game and an adult in another, despite the fact that it was the same individual each time. Initially, the 17- year-olds adjusted their communicative patterns when they thought they were interacting with the child by placing more emphasis on their movements. How quickly they abandoned this pattern depended on how much time they spent in day care. 17-year-olds who had come into contact with many different people as infants were more likely to get over a stereotype (刻板印象). They found out in the interaction that the “child” was also very good and then based their play on that.
According to the researcher this means that babies who have had more diverse social interactions can more easily let go of a stereotype later in life. They are more sensitive to social interaction and can more quickly let go of the image they have in their minds of their peers. Koch says, “Gaining many diverse social experiences early in life allows us to adapt better to the needs of our partners in social interaction. ”
12. What does the underlined word “adept” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Forgetful. B. Skillful. C. Interested. D. Disappointed.
13. What was the purpose of the game in the study?
A. To confirm the data from the Nijmegen study.
B. To test the impacts of early social interactions.
C. To enhance the youngsters’ cooperative ability.
D. To assess the effects of communicative patterns.
14. How did the 17-year-olds first respond to the “child” in the game?
A. They changed their fixed idea of a child. B. They adjusted the time spent on the game.
C. They performed more specific movements. D. They employed verbal interactive patterns.
15. What helps babies with future social contacts according to Koch?
A. Interacting with various people. B. Engaging with diverse peers.
C. Adapting to the needs of partners. D. Letting go of the old images.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
After hours of cooking and arranging the table, your goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience for your guests. But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. ____16____
Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. ____17____ The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. So, making the food visually attractive is key, as guests will assume it tastes as good as it looks.
For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. ____18____ They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. A red bowl can also make them hesitant to try new dishes, and they might even refuse food if the bowl’s colour doesn’t suit them. Choosing the right tableware colour is top priority here.
White plates are usually a safe choice, but avoid them with pale foods, which will look tasteless. They work well with vibrant dishes like salads or roasted meats, making the food’s colours stand out. For desserts, white plates enhance sweetness and flavor intensity.
____19____ Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. ____20____ matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends.
Understanding colour psychology lets you turn a simple meal into a memorable experience — all through smart tableware choices. It allows you to guide your guests’ perceptions subtly, ensuring that each dish not only tastes wonderful but also feels perfectly suited to the moment.
A. Dark plates have more varied effects.
B. They prefer simple tableware without any patterns.
C. The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial.
D. That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction.
E. Using the wrong colour can ruin the overall dining mood.
F. Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive.
G. The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food.

One afternoon, Emma and I were walking home from school, chatting about our day. Emma, with her curious eyes shining, asked me about my friendship with Lucy. Without thinking, I said, “I only hung out with Lucy because she wanted me to, but I didn’t really want to be friends with her. She was kind of boring.”
Unluckily I didn’t know Lucy was nearby. When I looked up, she was right there, having heard everything. Her face turned pale, and her eyes got big with surprise. She didn’t say anything and ran off. Emma and I just stood there, feeling bad. I knew I should go after Lucy and say sorry, but I was too shocked to move. Emma’s face turned red too. We walked home without talking, and it felt like our steps were getting heavier.
The next days were hard. I felt really bad about what I said and wanted to fix things with Lucy. I needed to say sorry. But what should I say? Even though I didn’t mean to, I hurt Lucy’s feelings. Every time I saw her at school, I looked away quickly.
Then, something interesting happened in our speaking class. On Tuesday, Ms. Julia said we would do pre-class speeches. She had written our topics on small pieces of paper and put them in a box. We had to pick one without knowing what it was. I was a bit nervous. When I reached into the box, I pulled out a paper that said, “Tell your most embarrassing moment.” My heart was beating fast. It felt like I was given a chance to make things right.
I spent the next few days practicing my speech, trying to find the right words to apologize to Lucy. I wanted to be sincere and show her I was sorry. When the day of the speech came, I was still nervous, but I knew it was important to face my mistake. I stood in front of the class, took a deep breath, and began to share my story, hoping it would help me and Lucy move forward.
注意:1. 续写词数应为90词左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the stage.

That youngsters were glued to online games on their smart phones was a great concern for Ngurang Meena, a school teacher in Nirjuli.The 30yearold social science teacher, who ran the Ngurang Learning Institute, an adult literacy centre, said that she felt disheartened when she read student papers.“The graph of student performance is falling every year.It breaks my heart whenever I see answer sheets — basic grammar skills are missing and there’s an absence of any cohesive (连贯的) expression.They lack guidance and their reading culture is almost zero,” Meena said.When her school and the centre she ran had to close due to infectious diseases, she planned to do something to address the problem.
Inspired by a similar proposal in Mizoram, Meena set up a bookshelf with around 80 books as well as some benches on the side of the road in Nirjuli on 30 August 2020, where passersby could spend time reading.The selections included motivational books, biographies and novels as well as comics for young children.“I have to please the minors with sweets to sit and read, but that is okay,” she laughed.
Meena’s bookshelf became a hit among youngsters who spent hours in the reading corner.Within two months, her effort became the talk of the town.
Now, generous contributions of books come in from the public and she is even receiving requests to set up such libraries in other parts of the state, including one in the capital, Itanagar.Since the tiny libraries are far from the main town, she also lends books out to those who want to read at home.
“I never thought that this would become such a big inspiration,” Meena said.“Since childhood, we have been told that books are our best friends.The next generation of kids is focused on games and other things.I don’t want them to head on the wrong track,” she added.
4. What’s the aim of Meena’s reading program?
A. To care for youngsters lacking in reading.
B. To help adults learn some cohesive expression.
C. To keep Ngurang Learning Institute running well.
D. To highlight the importance of reading for adults.
5. What did Meena do to encourage young kids to read more?
A. She offered some rewards to them.
B. She provided them with transportation.
C. She chose novels with beautiful covers.
D. She selected books covering every category.
6. Which words can best describe Meena’s libraries?
A. Small and useless.
B. Influential and meaningful.
C. Large but impractical.
D. Widespread but unwelcome.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. Books:Sources of Knowledge
B. The Roadside Reading Corner
C. The Library:an Ideal place for the Young
D. New Ideas about Setting a Reading Plan
【答案】4. A 5. A 6. B 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一位名叫Meena的女教师发现孩子们缺乏阅读后,决定开设一个路边的读书角,以激励他们多读书的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“They lack guidance and their reading culture is almost zero(他们缺乏指导,他们的阅读文化几乎为零)”以及第二段中的“Meena set up a bookshelf with around 80 books as well as some benches on the side of the road in Nirjuli on 30 August 2020, where passersby could spend time reading.(2020年8月30日,Meena在尼尔朱利的路边搭建了一个书架,书架上有大约80本书和一些长凳,路人可以在那里花时间阅读。)”可知,Meena阅读计划的目的是关心那些缺乏阅读条件的年轻人,故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I have to please the minors with sweets to sit and read, but that is okay(我必须用糖果来取悦未成年人,让他们坐下来看书,但这没关系)”可知,Meena通过给小孩子一些糖果作为奖励来鼓励他们多读书,故选A。

【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“Inspired by a similar proposal in Mizoram, Meena set up a bookshelf with around 80 books as well as some benches on the side of the road in Nirjuli on 30 August 2020(受Mizoram类似提议的启发,Meena于2020年8月30日在Nirjuli的路边设立了一个书架,书架上有大约80本书以及一些长凳)”以及结合全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了Meena为了鼓励孩子们多读书,在路边开设了街边图书馆,故选B。
C
Hair that is tightly coiled(盘绕) offers the best protection against the sun’s potentially damaging rays, which could explain why this trait evolved in early humans in Africa and straighter hair emerged as some humans moved into cooler areas.
It has long been suggested that the reason our body hair became so fine that it is sometimes barely visible, while our scalp hair remained thick, is to prevent our heads from overheating in the sun. In our bipedal(双足行走的) ancestors, the beneficial shading effect of head hair may have outweighed its insulating effect.
Tina Lasisi at Penn State University wondered if the type of hair on a person’s head also makes a difference. To learn more, Lasisi and her colleagues put three different wigs(假发) on a thermal manikin—a model of the human body with heaters and sensors that is used to measure the thermal effects of clothes. One of the three wigs was straight, one had moderate curls(卷) and one had tight curls. Lasisi says the tightly coiled wig was within the range of curl found in people of recent African ancestry.
The team found that the hair’s type made a big difference to how much heat the head of the manikin gained from simulated sunshine at 30℃. The head with a straight wig gained less than half as much heat as a control head with no wig. The head wearing the moderately curled wig gained around a quarter as much heat and the head with the tightly curled wig gained less than a tenth as much as the no-wig control.
The researchers think that the curls reduce how much heat reaches the skin by increasing the gap between it and the hair surface. Making straight hair longer doesn’t achieve this because it lies flat, says Lasisi.
The team also found when wetting the manikins to simulate sweat, the head with no wig lost twice as much heat via evaporation as those with the wigs. However, having any head hair more than halves the amount of sweat required to prevent the head from gaining heat, with tightly coiled hair reducing this more than moderately curled or straight hair, the result shows.
“Any mechanism that could help cool the body, and at the same time save precious water, would definitely have been acted on strongly by natural selection,” says Joseph Graves at North Carolina Agricultural & Technical State University. The study findings are important because they could help change some people’s prejudiced views, says Graves.
8. What does the underlined word “trait” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Curl. B. Feature. C. Situation. D. Essence.
9. What will Tina Lasisi probably agree with?
A. The three wigs were made of hair from different races.
B. The head with no wig gained the least amount of heat from the sun.
C. Wearing long straight hair could reduce the heat reaching the skin.
D. The head without a wig had the best cooling effect of sweating.
10. For what purpose was the research carried out?
A. To gain insight into early humans. B. To prove all races are born equal.
C. To clarify a question. D. To learn about the use of wigs.
11. What might be the best title of the passage?
A. Curly Hair Protects Us from the Sun B. Curly Hair Evolves into Straight Hair
C. Natural Selection Is What Really Counts D. A Study Changes Prejudiced Views
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了卷曲的头发如何保护我们免受阳光的伤害。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段中的“Hair that is tightly coiled(盘绕) offers the best protection against the sun’s potentially damaging rays, which could explain why this trait evolved in early humans in Africa and straighter hair emerged as some humans moved into cooler areas.”(紧密盘绕的头发能提供最佳的防晒保护,这可能解释了为什么这种trait在非洲的早期人类中进化出来,而在一些人类进入较凉爽地区时出现了较直的头发。)可知,紧密盘绕的头发能提供最佳的防晒保护,这是头发的特征,所以这里的“trait”是指头发的特征。故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段“The team also found when wetting the manikins to simulate sweat, the head with no wig lost twice as much heat via evaporation as those with the wigs. ”(研究小组还发现,当把人体模型弄湿以模拟出汗时,不戴假发的头部通过蒸发损失的热量是戴假发的头部的两倍。)可知,Tina Lasisi可能会同意,头上没有假发的模型通过出汗有最佳的冷却效果。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“It has long been suggested that the reason our body hair became so fine that it is sometimes barely visible, while our scalp hair remained thick, is to prevent our heads from overheating in the sun. In our bipedal(双足行走的) ancestors, the beneficial shading effect of head hair may have outweighed its insulating effect.”(长期以来,人们一直认为,我们的体毛变得很细,有时几乎看不见,而头皮上的头发却很厚,这是为了防止我们的头部在阳光下过热。在我们两足行走的祖先身上,头发有益的遮阳作用可能超过了它的绝缘作用。)以及第三段“Tina Lasisi at Penn State University wondered if the type of hair on a person’s head also makes a difference.”(宾夕法尼亚州立大学的蒂娜·拉西想知道一个人的头发类型是否也会产生影响)可以推断,研究的目的在于弄清楚头发类型是否对体温调节有影响,从而澄清问题。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Hair that is tightly coiled(盘绕) offers the best protection against the sun’s potentially damaging rays, which could explain why this trait evolved in early humans in Africa and straighter hair emerged as some humans moved into cooler areas.”(紧密盘绕的头发能提供最佳的防晒保护,这可能解释了为什么这种特征在非洲的早期人类中进化出来,而在一些人类进入较凉爽地区时出现了较直的头发。)可知,短文介绍了卷曲的头发如何保护我们免受阳光的伤害。所以短文的标题为“卷发保护我们不受阳光伤害”切题。故选A。
D
When babies are exposed to a variety of faces, they become more adept in recognizing and appreciating diversity, which can help reduce biases and prejudices as they grow. This is according to neuroscientist Saskia Koch of the Donders Institute and Radboud University.
Koch conducted her research using data from the Nijmegen longitudinal study. This study follows young people from infancy (婴儿期). First, the researchers looked at how frequently the teenagers had attended day care as babies. Then, the same youngsters were assigned the duty of playing a game when they reached the age of 17. In the game, they had to work with another person they couldn’t see. Both players had the same goal: find an object on a gameboard. Only the 17-year-old knew where the item was. The 17-year-olds had to communicate this location to each other without using words. They had to design communicative patterns that would assist the other person in locating the object. This could be accomplished, for example, by performing specific movements.
The 17-year-olds were informed they were playing with a 5-year-old in one game and an adult in another, despite the fact that it was the same individual each time. Initially, the 17- year-olds adjusted their communicative patterns when they thought they were interacting with the child by placing more emphasis on their movements. How quickly they abandoned this pattern depended on how much time they spent in day care. 17-year-olds who had come into contact with many different people as infants were more likely to get over a stereotype (刻板印象). They found out in the interaction that the “child” was also very good and then based their play on that.
According to the researcher this means that babies who have had more diverse social interactions can more easily let go of a stereotype later in life. They are more sensitive to social interaction and can more quickly let go of the image they have in their minds of their peers. Koch says “Gaining many diverse social experiences early in life allows us to adapt better to the needs of our partners in social interaction. ”
12. What does the underlined word “adept” in paragraph 1 mean?
A. Forgetful. B. Skillful. C. Interested. D. Disappointed.
13. What was the purpose of the game in the study?
A. To confirm the data from the Nijmegen study.
B. To test the impacts of early social interactions.
C. To enhance the youngsters’ cooperative ability.
D. To assess the effects of communicative patterns.
14. How did the 17-year-olds first respond to the “child” in the game?
A. They changed their fixed idea of a child. B. They adjusted the time spent on the game.
C. They performed more specific movements. D. They employed verbal interactive patterns.
15. What helps babies with future social contacts according to Koch?
A. Interacting with various people. B. Engaging with diverse peers.
C. Adapting to the needs of partners. D. Letting go of the old images.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了神经科学家科赫通过研究证明婴儿期接触多样面孔和社交互动有助于减少偏见,并在17岁青少年游戏测试中得到验证,多样社交经验利于未来社交适应。
【12题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“When babies are exposed to a variety of faces, they become more adept in recognizing and appreciating diversity, which can help reduce biases and prejudices as they grow. (当婴儿接触到各种各样的面孔时,他们在识别和欣赏多样性方面变得更加____,这有助于在他们成长过程中减少偏见和歧视)”以及最后一段“According to the researcher this means that babies who have had more diverse social interactions can more easily let go of a stereotype later in life. They are more sensitive to social interaction and can more quickly let go of the image they have in their minds of their peers. (根据研究人员的说法,这意味着那些有更多样化社交互动的婴儿在以后的生活中更容易摆脱刻板印象。他们对社交互动更敏感,能更快地放下他们脑海中对同龄人的印象)”可知,婴儿接触多种面孔时,在识别和欣赏多样性方面会变得更熟练,划线单词表示 “熟练的,擅长的”,与Skillful意义相近。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Koch conducted her research using data from the Nijmegen longitudinal study. This study follows young people from infancy (婴儿期). First, the researchers looked at how frequently the teenagers had attended day care as babies. Then, the same youngsters were assigned the duty of playing a game when they reached the age of 17. (科赫利用奈梅亨纵向研究的数据进行了她的研究。这项研究从婴儿期开始跟踪年轻人。首先,研究人员调查了这些青少年婴儿时期上日托所的频率。然后,当这些年轻人长到17岁时,他们被安排玩一个游戏)”以及后文对游戏过程中不同婴儿期经历对17岁青少年行为影响的描述可知,游戏的目的是测试早期社会互动的影响。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Initially, the 17- year-olds adjusted their communicative patterns when they thought they were interacting with the child by placing more emphasis on their movements. (起初,17岁的青少年在认为自己在与孩子互动时,会通过更强调自己的动作来调整他们的交流模式)”可知,17岁的青少年最初认为在和孩子互动时,会更强调自己的特定动作。故选C项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“According to the researcher this means that babies who have had more diverse social interactions can more easily let go of a stereotype later in life. They are more sensitive to social interaction and can more quickly let go of the image they have in their minds of their peers. Koch says, “Gaining many diverse social experiences early in life allows us to adapt better to the needs of our partners in social interaction.”(根据研究人员的说法,这意味着在婴儿时期有更多样化社交互动的孩子在以后的生活中更容易摆脱刻板印象。他们对社交互动更敏感,能更快地摆脱心中对同龄人的固有印象。科赫说:“在生命早期获得许多不同的社交经验,能让我们在社交互动中更好地适应伴侣的需求。”)”可知,根据科赫的说法,婴儿与各种各样的人互动有助于他们未来的社交。故选A项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
After hours of cooking and arranging the table, your goal is simple: to create an unforgettable dining experience for your guests. But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. ____16____
Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. ____17____ The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. So, making the food visually attractive is key, as guests will assume it tastes as good as it looks.
For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. ____18____ They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. A red bowl can also make them hesitant to try new dishes, and they might even refuse food if the bowl’s colour doesn’t suit them. Choosing the right tableware colour is top priority here.
White plates are usually a safe choice, but avoid them with pale foods, which will look tasteless. They work well with vibrant dishes like salads or roasted meats, making the food’s colours stand out. For desserts, white plates enhance sweetness and flavor intensity.
____19____ Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. ____20____ matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends.
Understanding colour psychology lets you turn a simple meal into a memorable experience — all through smart tableware choices. It allows you to guide your guests’ perceptions subtly, ensuring that each dish not only tastes wonderful but also feels perfectly suited to the moment.
A. Dark plates have more varied effects.
B. They prefer simple tableware without any patterns.
C. The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial.
D. That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction.
E. Using the wrong colour can ruin the overall dining mood.
F. Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive.
G. The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food.
【答案】16 G 17. D 18. F 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了餐具颜色对食物感受的影响,以及如何通过选择合适的餐具颜色来提升用餐体验。
【16题详解】
根据上文“But success isn’t just about fresh ingredients or cooking skills. (但成功不仅仅取决于新鲜的食材或烹饪技巧。)”以及下文“Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. (颜色的影响从第一眼就开始了。)”可知,上文说用餐体验不仅仅取决于新鲜的食材或烹饪技巧,下文则提到了颜色。G选项“The colour of tableware like plates, shapes how guests feel about the food. (盘子等餐具的颜色会影响客人对食物的感受。)”承接上文“成功的用餐体验不止于食材和厨艺”,引出下文“颜色的影响”,“The colour of tableware”与下文“Colour’s influence”直接呼应,明确了文章核心话题 —— 餐具颜色的重要性。故选G项。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Colour’s influence starts with the first glance. (颜色的影响始于第一眼。)”以及下文“The brain processes colour information and links it to taste, making us judge the same dish as delicious, average, or unappealing. (大脑处理颜色信息并将其与味道关联,让我们判断同一道菜是美味、普通还是令人反感。)”可知,此处应描述第一眼看到食物颜色后的一系列反应,D选项“That initial visual impression brings about a chain reaction. (这种最初的视觉印象会引发连锁反应。)”中的“initial visual impression”与上文的“first glance”相呼应,“a chain reaction”则引出下文大脑对颜色信息的处理和判断。故选D项。
【18题详解】
根据上文“For picky eaters, bowl colour is crucial. (对于挑食的人来说,碗的颜色至关重要。)”以及下文“They often find meals in red or blue bowls saltier than in white ones. (他们经常发现放在红色或蓝色碗里的饭菜比放在白色碗里的更咸。)”可知,此处应描述挑食者对餐具颜色的敏感反应,F选项“Their reactions to tableware colours are often more sensitive. (他们对餐具颜色的反应往往更敏感。)”解释了“碗的颜色对挑食者至关重要”的原因,即敏感度更高,“Their”指代“picky eaters”,“more sensitive”与下文具体的颜色反应相呼应,逻辑连贯。故选F项。
【19题详解】
根据下文“Black plates, for example, can make food seem saltier and larger in portion. This means dark tableware needs careful consideration of the dish’s flavor and portion size. (例如,黑色盘子会让食物看起来更咸、分量更大。这意味着深色餐具需要仔细考虑菜品的味道和分量。)”可知,此处应描述深色盘子对食物感受的影响,A选项“Dark plates have more varied effects. (深色盘子有更多样化的效果。)”是对下文内容的概括,“Dark plates”对应下文 “Black plates”“dark tableware”,“more varied effects”点明深色餐具的特点,引出下文具体举例说明,适合作为段落首句。故选A项。
【20题详解】
根据上文“On the contrary, bright plates add creativity and highlight less colorful foods but can go wrong. (相反,亮色盘子能增添创意,突出颜色较淡的食物,但也可能出错。)”以及下文“matching the plate’s colour too closely to the food can make portions seem smaller, as everything blends. (如果盘子的颜色和食物的颜色太接近,会让食物看起来分量更小,因为一切都融合在一起了。)”可知,此处应描述明亮盘子可能出错的具体情况,C选项“The wrong bright shade makes food look artificial. (错误的明亮色调会让食物看起来不自然。)” 是对“亮色盘子可能出错”的具体说明,与下文“颜色过于接近导致分量显小”并列,补充了亮色餐具的另一个弊端,“The wrong bright shade”呼应上文“can go wrong”,衔接紧密。故选C项。

第二节 读后续写 (满分15分)
57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写一段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
One afternoon, Emma and I were walking home from school, chatting about our day. Emma, with her curious eyes shining, asked me about my friendship with Lucy. Without thinking, I said, “I only hung out with Lucy because she wanted me to, but I didn’t really want to be friends with her. She was kind of boring.”
Unluckily, I didn’t know Lucy was nearby. When I looked up, she was right there, having heard everything. Her face turned pale, and her eyes got big with surprise. She didn’t say anything and ran off. Emma and I just stood there, feeling bad. I knew I should go after Lucy and say sorry, but I was too shocked to move. Emma’s face turned red too. We walked home without talking, and it felt like our steps were getting heavier.
The next days were hard. I felt really bad about what I said and wanted to fix things with Lucy. I needed to say sorry. But what should I say? Even though I didn’t mean to, I hurt Lucy’s feelings. Every time I saw her at school, I looked away quickly.
Then, something interesting happened in our speaking class. On Tuesday, Ms. Julia said we would do pre-class speeches. She had written our topics on small pieces of paper and put them in a box. We had to pick one without knowing what it was. I was a bit nervous. When I reached into the box, I pulled out a paper that said, “Tell your most embarrassing moment.” My heart was beating fast. It felt like I was given a chance to make things right.
I spent the next few days practicing my speech, trying to find the right words to apologize to Lucy. I wanted to be sincere and show her I was sorry. When the day of the speech came, I was still nervous, but I knew it was important to face my mistake. I stood in front of the class, took a deep breath, and began to share my story, hoping it would help me and Lucy move forward.
注意:1. 续写词数应为90词左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the stage.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文:
Knowing what I had to say, I calmed myself down and walked to the stage. I gripped the microphone tightly, my voice trembling slightly at first. I started by describing that afternoon’s walk home, not hiding my thoughtless words or the look of hurt on Lucy’s face. “I was stupid and selfish,” I said, my eyes locking onto Lucy’s across the classroom. “Lucy, I never meant what I said, and I’m so sorry I hurt you.” The classroom fell quiet, and I could see Lucy’s eyes glistening with tears. Lucy came up to me, her voice soft but steady. “Your speech meant a lot,” she said, a small smile flickering across her lips. “I was really hurt, but I know you didn’t mean it deep down.” We hugged, and the awkwardness between us vanished completely.
