Facing me, her expression showed clear signs of tiredness and, more importantly, a deep-seated sense of disappointment. I offered the usual encouragement: “Persistence is key in research. You need to keep going.” Yet, as I spoke, a sense of discomfort grew within me. She gave a quiet nod and turned slightly away. In the weeks that followed, her visits became irregular until they ceased completely. I made excuses to myself — perhaps her studies had intensified, or her passions had shifted — but internally, I questioned whether I had failed to recognize and respond to the personal challenges she was facing alone. I became a mentor (导师) during my second year of Ph.D. but didn’t get much guidance on how to do it. I learned only by doing. There were moments I felt proud of. One student started out quiet and unsure, but over time grew into a most independent and confident young researcher. Before graduating, she told me, “You are the reason I stuck with this.” That moment touched me deeply. But so did the other one — the silence, the absences, the slow fade-out. Had I failed her? It wasn’t until the final year of my Ph.D. that I came across a leaflet for a mentorship training workshop. Skeptical at first, I decided to try it. The program, called Entering Mentoring, brought together graduate students for weekly discussions. For the first time, I had the space to explore the invisible labor and emotional complexity of mentoring. One session asked us to reflect on our own practices. I began to realize what might have been missing in my relationship with the student who had drifted away. I had never invited her to share her goals or concerns. I could have been more attentive to her unspoken struggles. After the workshop, I began changing how I interacted with students. I now start by asking how they’re doing, not just experimental details. This shift has led to more honest conversations. I’ve learned that good mentors are built through reflection and training. I wish I’d attended that workshop earlier, but I’m grateful I did at all. 41. What primarily caused the student’s withdrawal according to paragraph 1? A. Demanding research challenges. B. Heavy academic workload. C. Repetitive failures in research. D. Unaddressed inner struggles. 42. According to Paragraph 2, how did the author feel about the student who became independent? A.

C 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者作为导师的经历，反思了自身在指导过程中的不足，并通过参加培训改善了指导方式。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“My undergraduate student came to me, seeking guidance once more following a series of unsuccessful attempts. Facing me, her expression showed clear signs of tiredness and, more importantly, a deep-seated sense of disappointment. I offered the usual encouragement: “Persistence is key in research. You need to keep going.” Yet, as I spoke, a sense of discomfort grew within me. She gave a quiet nod and turned slightly away. In the weeks that followed, her visits became irregular until they ceased completely.(我的一名本科生再次来找我寻求指导，此前她经历了多次失败的尝试。面对她时，她的表情明显透着疲惫，更重要的是，还流露出一种深深的失望情绪。我像往常一样给予她鼓励：“在研究中，坚持不懈是关键。你需要继续努力。”然而，在我讲话的过程中，我内心产生了一种不安的感觉。她微微点了点头，然后稍稍转过身去。在接下来的几周里，她的来访变得不规律起来，最后完全停止了)”以及第三段中“I began to realize what might have been missing in my relationship with the student who had drifted away. I had never invited her to share her goals or concerns. I could have been more attentive to her unspoken struggles.(我开始意识到，我和那个渐行渐远的学生之间，可能缺少了一些东西。我从未邀请她分享自己的目标或顾虑，本应该更留意她那些未说出口的挣扎。)”可知，学生因实验失败而疲惫沮丧，作者只是简单地让她“坚持”，并未关注她内心的挣扎，也没有引导她倾诉顾虑。后续作者的反思也印证了这一点，由此可推断，未被关注的内心挣扎是学生退出的主要原因。故选D。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I learned only by doing. There were moments I felt proud of. One student started out quiet and unsure, but over time grew into a most independent and confident young researcher. Before graduating, she told me, “You are the reason I stuck with this.” That moment touched me deeply.(我都是通过实践来学习的。也有一些时刻让我感到自豪。有一位学生起初很安静，也很不自信，但随着时间的推移，她逐渐成长为一个非常独立且自信的年轻研究者。在毕业前，她对我说：“是您让我坚持了下来。”那一刻深深地触动了我)”可知，作者对那位变得独立的学生深感自豪，并为她的成长而感动。故选B。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“The program, called Entering Mentoring, brought together graduate students for weekly discussions. For the first time, I had the space to explore the invisible labor and emotional complexity of mentoring.(这个名为“进入导师角色”的项目将研究生们召集在一起，每周举行讨论会。这是我第一次有机会去探究导师这一角色所蕴含的无形付出以及其中蕴含的复杂情感)”可知，研讨会主要关注指导中的人际关系层面。故选C。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“I began to realize what might have been missing in my relationship with the student who had drifted away. I had never invited her to share her goals or concerns. I could have been more attentive to her unspoken struggles.(我开始意识到，我和那个渐行渐远的学生之间，可能缺少了一些东西。我从未邀请她分享自己的目标或顾虑，本应该更留意她那些未说出口的挣扎)”和最后一段中“I now start by asking how they’re doing, not just experimental details. This shift has led to more honest conversations.(我现在首先会询问他们的近况如何，而不仅仅是探讨实验的细节。这种转变使得交流变得更加坦诚)”可知，作者通过反思改进了指导方式，体现了责任感和反思能力。故选B。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“After the workshop, I began changing how I interacted with students. I now start by asking how they’re doing, not just experimental details. This shift has led to more honest conversations. I’ve learned that good mentors are built through reflection and training. I wish I’d attended that workshop earlier, but I’m grateful I did at all.(在研讨会结束后，我开始改变与学生交流的方式。现在，我首先会询问他们的近况，而不仅仅是探讨实验的细节。这种转变带来了更坦诚的交流。我了解到，优秀的导师是通过反思和培训来培养出来的。我真希望自己能早点参加那个研讨会，但即便如此，我也很感激自己参加了)”结合文章围绕作者的导师经历展开，从忽视学生情感需求导致学生退出，到参加培训后意识到问题，再到改变沟通方式，核心主旨是有效的导师指导需要关注学生的情感需求。可知，文章主旨是人们认识到有效的指导需要关注学生的心理需求。故选C。 C Cities worldwide are witnessing a transformation in urban environments. Wildlife populations in cities are not only surviving but often surpassing those in rural areas. Moreover, the variety of species making cities their home has expanded considerably. Urban bird populations in cities like Berlin have increased by over 40% in the past two decades. These aren’t just typical pigeons and sparrows, but hawks and owls, and even non-native species that have found urban environments surprisingly pleasant. The urban heat island effect, often seen as a negative consequence of city development, creates micro climates many species find irresistible. Warmer temperatures extend growing seasons, provide frost-free zones, and create diverse micro habitats within a single city block, attracting large quantities of wild animals. Urban environments also offer abundant food resources. Raccoons in Toronto have learned some techniques to open garbage cans. The constant availability of food waste and reduced animal hunters in nature create what ecologists call “urban ecological release.” Urban wildlife’s boom (繁荣) not only reshapes ecosystems but brings health benefits to humans. Studies show people in areas with higher biodiversity experience lower rates of autoimmune diseases. Mental health benefits are equally impressive: urban residents who encounter wildlife report lower stress and improved mood. Yet this boom isn’t all positive. Urban animals are developing behaviour changes — increased aggression and interrupted migration routes. Disease spread is also critical as populations grow more crowded, threatening humans and animals alike. Forward-thinking cities are pioneering architectural innovations. Green roofs in Copenhagen aren’t just for beauty — they’re functioning ecosystems supporting plants, insects, and birds, cutting energy costs by up to 30% while providing paths for wildlife to move. Wildlife bridges like Ecoduct de Woeste Hoeve let over 5,000 deer cross highways safely, reducing wildlife-vehicle accidents by 80%. The future of urban wildlife coexistence is promising, driven by tech advances and public awareness — smart tech enables wildlife monitoring, and innovative designs create shared livable spaces. Emerging biotech may revolutionize management: genetic tools help study urban animal adaptation, aiding threatened species. The key is reimagining cities as integrated ecosystems. As urbanization grows, coexistence lessons grow more valuable. The question isn’t whether we can live alongside urban wildlife — it’s whether we dare to embrace the possibilities this partnership offers. 46. What can we know about urban wildlife from Paragraph 1? A. They have grown in diversity. B. They are mainly from rural areas. C. They have adapted to urban pollution. D. They tend to avoid human contact. 47. The underlined word “irresistible” in paragraph 2 most probably means ________.​ A. changeable B. obvious C. dangerous D. attractive 48. Why is “urban ecological release” mentioned? A. To present a new ecological concept. B. To stress the constant city development. C. To show the wildlife-friendliness of cities. D. To explain the reduced ecological harm. 49. What can the urban wildlife boom bring? A. Lowered rates of disease spread. B. An improved sense of well-being. C. Impressive migration routes of wildlife. D. Positive behavioural changes in wildlife. 50. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of urban wildlife?​​ A. Indifferent. B. Deeply concerned. C. Strongly opposed. D. Cautiously optimistic. 【答案】46. A 47. D 48. C 49. B 50. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了城市野生动物数量和种类增加，其带来的影响及应对措施和未来展望。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Moreover, the variety of species making cities their home has expanded considerably.(此外，以城市为家的物种种类也大幅增加)”可知，城市野生动物多样性增加了。故选A。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段“Warmer temperatures extend growing seasons, provide frost-free zones, and create diverse micro habitats within a single city block, attracting large quantities of wild animals.(温暖的温度延长了生长季节，提供了无霜区，并在一个城市街区内创造了多样化的微栖息地，吸引了大量的野生动物)”可知，城市热岛效应创造的微气候吸引了很多物种，所以“irresistible”意思是“有吸引力的”。故选D。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Urban environments also offer abundant food resource. Raccoon in Toronto have learned some techniques to open garbage cans. The constant availability of food waste and reduced animal hunters in nature create what ecologists call “urban ecological release.”(城市环境也提供了丰富食物资源。多伦多的浣熊已经学会了一些打开垃圾桶的技巧。食物垃圾的不断供应和自然界中动物捕食者的减少创造了生态学家所说的“城市生态释放”)”可知，提到“城市生态释放”是为了说明城市提供了丰富的食物资源，且自然界中动物捕食者减少，这体现了城市对野生动物的友好，为野生动物提供了良好的生存环境。故选C。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Urban wildlife’s boom (繁荣) not only reshapes ecosystems but brings health benefits to humans. Studies show people in areas with higher biodiversity experience lower rates of autoimmune diseases. Mental health benefits are equally impressive: urban residents who encounter wildlife report lower stress and improved mood.(城市野生动物的繁荣不仅重塑了生态系统，还给人类带来了健康益处。研究表明，生物多样性较高的地区的人们患自身免疫性疾病的几率较低。心理健康益处同样令人印象深刻：遇到野生动物的城市居民报告压力较低，情绪有所改善)”可知，城市野生动物的繁荣能带来幸福感的提升，包括降低自身免疫性疾病的发病率，降低压力以及改善情绪。故选B。 【50题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The future of urban wildlife coexistence is promising, driven by tech advances and public awareness. Smart tech enables wildlife monitoring, and innovative designs create shared livable spaces. Emerging biotech may revolutionize management: genetic tools help study urban animal adaptation, aiding threatened species. The key is reimagining cities as integrated ecosystems. As urbanization grows, coexistence lessons grow more valuable. The question isn’t whether we can live alongside urban wildlife — it’s whether we dare to embrace the possibilities this partnership offers.(在技术进步和公众意识的推动下，城市野生动物共存的未来充满希望。智能技术使野生动物监测成为可能，创新设计创造了共享的生活空间。新兴生物技术可能彻底改变管理方式：基因工具有助于研究城市动物的适应性，帮助濒危物种。关键是要将城市重新想象为一个综合生态系统。随着城市化的发展，共存的经验变得越来越有价值。问题不在于我们能否与城市野生动物共存，而在于我们是否敢于接受这种伙伴关系所带来的可能性)”可知，作者对城市野生动物的未来持谨慎乐观的态度。故选D。 D The mental pain of failure can stimulate you to become better at the activity in which you lack proficiency if you can consider the unpleasant experience as an indicator of personal growth. This is what researchers found when they conducted a field experiment at an improvisation (即兴表演) club. One group of amateur improvisers was instructed to actively seek the feeling of awkwardness. The scholars found that, compared with improvisers who were not given this instruction, the first group was more engaged in the exercise. Instead of seeing the discomfort as something to avoid, they saw it as central to the process and devoted themselves to it. This has effects on how to improve ordinary life. You can put failure to good use in many other areas of life. If you’re a student, take a class far outside your area of skills and interests, knowing that the struggle to cope with a very novel challenge may improve studying what you do like. Enjoy the difficulty of it and analyze the mistakes you make — and you will almost certainly find that you’re doing even better at your major subjects. Employers can apply these principles as well. I like the “75/25 rule,” according to which employees spend three-quarters of their time on their assigned task and one quarter helping others outside their area. The short-term cost of this is friction as people struggle with novelty and difficulty, and bosses should take care not to make this worse by being punitive or overly critical. But I have seen the long-term benefit of better motivation in the core assignment, as well as a better flow of information and distribution of new skills across different activities within an enterprise. The principle of embracing failure can even be applied to happiness itself. None of us wants to be unhappy. But inviting sources of unhappiness into life can be extremely beneficial. Resolve not to be afraid of fear, anger, or sadness. They are normal and natural parts of life, after all. And if you let them, they will help you savor (享受) the joys of life all the more. 51. What did the experiment at the improvisation club find? A. Avoiding awkwardness improved improvisers’ creativity. B. Actively embracing awkwardness increased engagement. C. Professional improvisers performed better than amateurs. D. Discomfort negatively impacted participants’ motivation. 52. Why does the author advise students to take unfamiliar classes? A. To reduce their academic pressure. B. To increase their studying interests. C. To avoid errors in their preferred field. D. To indirectly strengthen their major subjects. 53. What is the long-term effect of the “75/25 rule”? A. Employees are more motivated and multi-skilled. B. Competitions among colleagues get more intense. C. New and difficult assignments become effortless. D. Conflicts in workplace disappear completely. 54. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the last paragraph?​​ A. To provide a summary of the previous arguments. B. To present the most important application of the principle. C. To encourage a shift in readers’fundamental attitude towards emotions. D. To warn about the potential dangers of pursuing happiness directly. 55. Which is the best title of the text? A. The Different Ways to Avoid Failure. B. The Benefits of Doing Things You’re Bad at. C. The Advice on How to Seek Happiness. D. The Reasons Why You’re in Negative Moods. 【答案】51. B 52. D 53. A 54. C 55. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是议论文。主要讨论了失败的心理痛苦如何能够激励个人在缺乏熟练度的活动中变得更好，并提出了如何应用这一原则来改善日常生活、工作场所乃至追求幸福。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The mental pain of failure can stimulate you to become better at the activity in which you lack proficiency if you can consider the unpleasant experience as an indicator of personal growth. This is what researchers found when they conducted a field experiment at an improvisation (即兴表演) club. One group of amateur improvisers was instructed to actively seek the feeling of awkwardness. The scholars found that, compared with improvisers who were not given this instruction, the first group was more engaged in the exercise. Instead of seeing the discomfort as something to avoid, they saw it as central to the process and devoted themselves to it.(失败带来的精神痛苦能够促使你在自身缺乏熟练度的活动中取得进步，前提是你可以将这种不愉快的经历视为个人成长的标志。这是研究人员在一家即兴表演俱乐部进行实地实验时得出的结论。他们将一群业余即兴表演者分成两组，一组被要求积极体验那种尴尬的感觉。研究者发现，与未接受此指令的即兴表演者相比，第一组更投入地参与了这项活动。他们不再将这种不适感视为需要回避的东西，而是将其视为整个过程的核心，并全身心地投入到其中)”可知，即兴表演俱乐部的实验发现了积极地接受尴尬会增加参与度。故选B项。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“If you’re a student, take a class far outside your area of skills and interests, knowing that the struggle to cope with a very novel challenge may improve studying what you do like. Enjoy the difficulty of it and analyze the mistakes you make — and you will almost certainly find that you’re doing even better at your major subjects.(如果你是学生，不妨选一门与你专业技能和兴趣领域完全不相关的课程，要知道面对全新挑战所经历的艰难过程或许能促进你对所学内容的理解。享受其中的困难，分析自己所犯的错误——你几乎肯定会发现，在你所学的专业科目上，你的表现会更加出色)”可知，作者建议学生选修不熟悉的课程，因为可以间接加强他们的主要科目。故选D项。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“I like the “75/25 rule,” according to which employees spend three-quarters of their time on their assigned task and one quarter helping others outside their area. The short-term cost of this is friction as people struggle with novelty and difficulty, and bosses should take care not to make this worse by being punitive or overly critical. But I have seen the long-term benefit of better motivation in the core assignment, as well as a better flow of information and distribution of new skills across different activities within an enterprise.(我喜欢“75/25 规则”，即员工将四分之三的时间用于完成分配给自己的任务，而将四分之一的时间用于帮助自己职责以外的同事。这种做法短期内会导致一些摩擦，因为人们在面对新情况和困难时会感到困惑，而管理者应当避免采取惩罚性措施或过度批评的方式，以免情况变得更糟。但我也看到，这种做法在长期来看能更好地激发核心任务的完成动力，还能促进企业内部不同活动之间的信息流通以及新技能的传播)”可知，“75/25规则”的长期影响是员工更有动力，技能也更丰富。故选A项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The principle of embracing failure can even be applied to happiness itself. None of us wants to be unhappy. But inviting sources of unhappiness into life can be extremely beneficial. Resolve not to be afraid of fear, anger, or sadness. They are normal and natural parts of life, after all. And if you let them, they will help you savor (享受) the joys of life all the more.(接受失败这一原则甚至也可以应用于幸福本身。我们都不希望自己不快乐。但将不快乐的因素引入生活却可能非常有益。不要害怕恐惧、愤怒或悲伤。毕竟，这些都是生活中的正常且自然的部分。如果能接纳它们，它们将会帮助你更加享受生活的乐趣)”可知，作者在最后一段旨在鼓励读者从根本上改变对情感的看法。故选C项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The principle of embracing failure can even be applied to happiness itself. None of us wants to be unhappy. But inviting sources of unhappiness into life can be extremely beneficial. Resolve not to be afraid of fear, anger, or sadness.

A group of kids, ages 8 to 14, watch her make the dish. This cooking class is part of a “Summer Camp” in Southern California. At this camp, grandmas are in charge. Each week, they teach young campers how to cook a new dish and do crafts. “Loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with，and they love having younger people around them,” said Zainab, who works at Olive Community Services that brings older adults together and created the camp. During the last week of the camp, a 9-year-old Janna learned how to use a sewing machine and make pockets. The camper had pressed hard on the machine’s pedal, making the needle move quickly. “Slowly, slowly,” Rahim, a grandma teaching the sewing class, said to her. The girl smiled when she made it. Rahim said the camp is “filling a gap” for kids. Many schools don’t teach these skills like cooking and sewing. Rahim also doesn’t get to spend much time with her grandchildren because they don’t live close. “It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you,” she said. The summer camp was organized through a partnership with the Golden Connections Club started by a 14-year-old high school student Leena to encourage teens and seniors to interact. She noticed that many students didn’t have the chance to spend as much time with their grandparents. She also learned about challenges faced by senior adults, such as unfair treatment. The club organizes monthly lunches at Leena’s school. They invite the seniors to the school and discuss topics where both groups can learn from each other. One of the most valuable lessons they’ve shared with her is to live in the moment, and this has taken on new meaning for Leena. “The people we have right now, they’re not going to be with us forever,” she said. 56. What do grandmas mainly do at the Summer Camp? (No more than 10 words) ______________________________________________________________________________ 57. What does the underlined phrase “filling a gap” in Paragraph 3 mean? (No more than 5 words) ______________________________________________________________________________ 58. Why did Leena start the Golden Connections Club? (No more than 12 words) ______________________________________________________________________________ 59. What lesson did Leena learn from the seniors? (no more than 10 words) ______________________________________________________________________________ 60. Besides cooking, what other life skill do you think is important to learn from the elderly? Give one example and explain briefly. (No more than 20 words) ______________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. They teach kids how to cook and do crafts. 57. Teaching missing practical skills./Making up for the skills. 58 Because she wanted to encourage teens and seniors to interact./Because she wanted to encourage interaction between teens and seniors. 59. To live in the moment/To treasure the present./She should live in the moment. 60. (开放题，示例) Learning gardening from the elderly is important,because it teaches us patience and how to care for living things. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了加州夏令营中祖孙互动及技能传承的活动与意义。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章第一段中“At this camp, grandmas are in charge. Each week, they teach young campers how to cook a new dish and do crafts.(在这个夏令营里，奶奶们是活动的主导者。每周，她们都会教营里的孩子们学做一道新菜式，还会带着大家动手做手工。)”可知，祖母们在夏令营主要是教孩子们如何烹饪和做手工艺品。故答案为They teach kids how to cook and do crafts. 【57题详解】 考查词句猜测。由文章第三段“During the last week of the camp, a 9-year-old Janna learned how to use a sewing machine and make pockets. The camper had pressed hard on the machine’s pedal, making the needle move quickly. “Slowly, slowly,” Rahim, a grandma teaching the sewing class, said to her. The girl smiled when she made it. Rahim said the camp is “filling a gap” for kids. Many schools don’t teach these skills like cooking and sewing.(夏令营的最后一周，9岁的詹娜学会了使用缝纫机，还亲手缝制出了口袋。操作时，小女孩用力踩着缝纫机的踏板，机针随之飞速运转。“慢点，慢点。”负责缝纫课教学的拉希姆奶奶轻声提醒她。当詹娜顺利完成作品时，脸上露出了灿烂的笑容。拉希姆奶奶说，这个夏令营正为孩子们“填补一项空白”——如今许多学校都不再开设烹饪、缝纫这类实用技能课程了。)”可知，学校不教这些技能，所以这个夏令营是在弥补这个缺失，故filling a gap意思是“弥补缺失的技能”。故答案为Teaching missing practical skills./Making up for the skills. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章倒数第二段中“The summer camp was organized through a partnership with the Golden Connections Club started by a 14-year-old high school student Leena to encourage teens and seniors to interact.(这个夏令营是通过与由14岁的高中生莉娜创办的金色连接俱乐部合作组织的，旨在鼓励青少年和老年人进行互动。)”可知，莉娜创办金色连接俱乐部是为了鼓励青少年和老年人进行互动。故答案为Because she wanted to encourage teens and seniors to interact./Because she wanted to encourage interaction between teens and seniors. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。由文章最后一段“One of the most valuable lessons they’ve shared with her is to live in the moment, and this has taken on new meaning for Leena.(他们与她分享的最有价值的教训之一就是活在当下，这对莉娜来说有了新的意义。)”可知，莉娜从老年人那里学到的最有价值的教训之一是活在当下。故答案为To live in the moment/To treasure the present./She should live in the moment. 【60题详解】 开放性题目，此题要求回答：除了烹饪，你认为从长辈那里学习的其他重要生活技能是什么？请举一个例子并简要说明。（不超过20字）答案不唯一，合理即可。例如：向老年人学习园艺很重要，因为它教会我们耐心和如何照顾生物。故答案为Learning gardening from the elderly is important, because it teaches us patience and how to care for living things. 第II卷 提高题(共32分) 第五节：书面表达(共32分：好句提升7分，作文25分) 关键环节学法题二：好句提升(共7分) 61. Because he was determined to master the skill, he engaged himself in practicing the piano daily. (用非谓语作状语改写句子) ____________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Determined to master the skill, he engaged himself in practicing the piano daily. 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：因为他下定决心要掌握这项技能，所以他每天都练习弹钢琴。原句中“Because he was determined to master the skill”是原因状语从句，从句主语he与主句主语一致，可将从句改写为非谓语动词短语作状语，be determined to do sth.“下定决心做某事”，固定短语，he与determine是逻辑上的动宾关系，故用过去分词短语作状语，句首单词首字母大写。故改写为Determined to master the skill, he engaged himself in practicing the piano daily. 62. Online learning platforms are widely used by students. Access to quality education is crucial for the students. (用介词+关系代词的非限制性定语从句改写句子) ____________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Online learning platforms are widely used by students, for whom access to quality education is crucial. 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：在线学习平台被学生广泛使用，对这些学生来说，获取优质教育至关重要。前后两个句子中共同的部分为students，因此根据改写要求，可以将students作为先行词，将后句改写为介词+关系代词引导的非限制性定语从句，且根据固定搭配“is crucial for the students”可知，介词用for，关系词students指人，应用关系代词whom。故填Online learning platforms are widely used by students, for whom access to quality education is crucial. 63. We should protect the environment for future generations. It is extremely significant.(改为It做形式主语的主语从句) ____________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】It is extremely significant that we protect the environment for future generations.##It is extremely significant that we should protect the environment for future generations. 【解析】 【详解】考查it作形式主语的主语从句结构。句意：为子孙后代保护环境，这是极其重要的。根据题目要求，合并句子时，可将第二个句子中的“It”作为形式主语，而将第一个句子转化为由“that”引导的主语从句，作为真正主语置于句末，从而构成“It is + 形容词 + that从句”的句型。当it作形式主语，且主句表语为significant、important、necessary、essential等表示“重要性、必要性”的形容词时，从句谓语需用“(should) + 动词原形”的虚拟语气结构。故填It is extremely significant that we (should) protect the environment for future generations. 64. 作文：(满分25分) 64. 假设你是晨光中学“中华文化传承社”的社长李津。你注意到，在全球文化交流日益频繁的今天，一些中国优秀传统文化(如书法、京剧、传统节日习俗等)在青少年中的认知度和影响力有待提升。为增强同学们的文化自信与传承意识，请你用英文写一封倡议书，发布在社团微信公众号上。 内容包括： (1)简要说明传统文化面临挑战及其价值; (2)提出具体倡议：呼吁同学们参与至少两项校园或社区内可开展的文化实践或推广活动; (3)阐述传承行动的积极意义，并鼓励大家积极加入，成为有担当的文化传承者。 注意： 1. 词数100左右; 2. 请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 参考词汇：文化传承 (cultural transmission);文化遗产 (cultural heritage);传承人 (inheritor) Call to Action: Preserve Our Traditional Culture Dear fellow students， ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Sincerely, Li Jin 【答案】参考范文 Call to Action: Preserve Our Traditional Culture Dear fellow students， With global cultural exchange deepening, exceptional traditional Chinese cultures like calligraphy and Peking Opera are losing their appeal among teenagers.

Facing me, her expression showed clear signs of tiredness and, more importantly, a deep-seated sense of disappointment. I offered the usual encouragement: “Persistence is key in research. You need to keep going.” Yet, as I spoke, a sense of discomfort grew within me. She gave a quiet nod and turned slightly away. In the weeks that followed, her visits became irregular until they ceased completely. I made excuses to myself — perhaps her studies had intensified, or her passions had shifted — but internally, I questioned whether I had failed to recognize and respond to the personal challenges she was facing alone. I became a mentor (导师) during my second year of Ph.D. but didn’t get much guidance on how to do it. I learned only by doing. There were moments I felt proud of. One student started out quiet and unsure, but over time grew into a most independent and confident young researcher. Before graduating, she told me, “You are the reason I stuck with this.” That moment touched me deeply. But so did the other one — the silence, the absences, the slow fade-out. Had I failed her? It wasn’t until the final year of my Ph.D. that I came across a leaflet for a mentorship training workshop. Skeptical at first, I decided to try it. The program, called Entering Mentoring, brought together graduate students for weekly discussions. For the first time, I had the space to explore the invisible labor and emotional complexity of mentoring. One session asked us to reflect on our own practices. I began to realize what might have been missing in my relationship with the student who had drifted away. I had never invited her to share her goals or concerns. I could have been more attentive to her unspoken struggles. After the workshop, I began changing how I interacted with students. I now start by asking how they’re doing, not just experimental details. This shift has led to more honest conversations. I’ve learned that good mentors are built through reflection and training. I wish I’d attended that workshop earlier, but I’m grateful I did at all. 41. What primarily caused the student’s withdrawal according to paragraph 1? A. Demanding research challenges. B. Heavy academic workload. C. Repetitive failures in research. D. Unaddressed inner struggles. 42. According to Paragraph 2, how did the author feel about the student who became independent? A. He regretted not guiding her properly. B. He was deeply proud and moved by her growth. C. He was surprised by her sudden transformation. D. He considered her achievement a result of pure luck. 43. What did the workshop mainly focus on? A. Developing academic research skills. B. Encouraging discussions among graduate students. C. Exploring the interpersonal aspects of mentoring. D. Demonstrating diverse personal mentoring approaches. 44. Which of the following can best describe the author? A. Strict and intelligent. B. Responsible and reflective. C. Thoughtful but self-doubting. D. Disciplined but inexperienced. 45. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?​​ A. A personal story about the difficulties and rewards of supervising students in science. B. The process of how a training program helped solve a common problem in academic labs. C. The realization that effective mentoring requires attention to students’ emotional needs. D. A comparison between two different mentoring styles and their impacts on students. C Cities worldwide are witnessing a transformation in urban environments. Wildlife populations in cities are not only surviving but often surpassing those in rural areas. Moreover, the variety of species making cities their home has expanded considerably. Urban bird populations in cities like Berlin have increased by over 40% in the past two decades. These aren’t just typical pigeons and sparrows, but hawks and owls, and even non-native species that have found urban environments surprisingly pleasant. The urban heat island effect, often seen as a negative consequence of city development, creates micro climates many species find irresistible. Warmer temperatures extend growing seasons, provide frost-free zones, and create diverse micro habitats within a single city block, attracting large quantities of wild animals. Urban environments also offer abundant food resources. Raccoons in Toronto have learned some techniques to open garbage cans. The constant availability of food waste and reduced animal hunters in nature create what ecologists call “urban ecological release.” Urban wildlife’s boom (繁荣) not only reshapes ecosystems but brings health benefits to humans. Studies show people in areas with higher biodiversity experience lower rates of autoimmune diseases. Mental health benefits are equally impressive: urban residents who encounter wildlife report lower stress and improved mood. Yet this boom isn’t all positive. Urban animals are developing behaviour changes — increased aggression and interrupted migration routes. Disease spread is also critical as populations grow more crowded, threatening humans and animals alike. Forward-thinking cities are pioneering architectural innovations. Green roofs in Copenhagen aren’t just for beauty — they’re functioning ecosystems supporting plants, insects, and birds, cutting energy costs by up to 30% while providing paths for wildlife to move. Wildlife bridges like Ecoduct de Woeste Hoeve let over 5,000 deer cross highways safely, reducing wildlife-vehicle accidents by 80%. The future of urban wildlife coexistence is promising, driven by tech advances and public awareness — smart tech enables wildlife monitoring, and innovative designs create shared livable spaces. Emerging biotech may revolutionize management: genetic tools help study urban animal adaptation, aiding threatened species. The key is reimagining cities as integrated ecosystems. As urbanization grows, coexistence lessons grow more valuable. The question isn’t whether we can live alongside urban wildlife — it’s whether we dare to embrace the possibilities this partnership offers. 46. What can we know about urban wildlife from Paragraph 1? A. They have grown in diversity. B. They are mainly from rural areas. C. They have adapted to urban pollution. D. They tend to avoid human contact. 47. The underlined word “irresistible” in paragraph 2 most probably means ________.​ A. changeable B. obvious C. dangerous D. attractive 48. Why is “urban ecological release” mentioned? A. To present a new ecological concept. B. To stress the constant city development. C. To show the wildlife-friendliness of cities. D. To explain the reduced ecological harm. 49. What can the urban wildlife boom bring? A. Lowered rates of disease spread. B. An improved sense of well-being. C. Impressive migration routes of wildlife. D. Positive behavioural changes in wildlife. 50. What is the author’s attitude towards the future of urban wildlife?​​ A. Indifferent. B. Deeply concerned. C. Strongly opposed. D. Cautiously optimistic. D The mental pain of failure can stimulate you to become better at the activity in which you lack proficiency if you can consider the unpleasant experience as an indicator of personal growth. This is what researchers found when they conducted a field experiment at an improvisation (即兴表演) club. One group of amateur improvisers was instructed to actively seek the feeling of awkwardness. The scholars found that, compared with improvisers who were not given this instruction, the first group was more engaged in the exercise. Instead of seeing the discomfort as something to avoid, they saw it as central to the process and devoted themselves to it. This has effects on how to improve ordinary life. You can put failure to good use in many other areas of life. If you’re a student, take a class far outside your area of skills and interests, knowing that the struggle to cope with a very novel challenge may improve studying what you do like. Enjoy the difficulty of it and analyze the mistakes you make — and you will almost certainly find that you’re doing even better at your major subjects. Employers can apply these principles as well. I like the “75/25 rule” according to which employees spend three-quarters of their time on their assigned task and one quarter helping others outside their area. The short-term cost of this is friction as people struggle with novelty and difficulty, and bosses should take care not to make this worse by being punitive or overly critical. But I have seen the long-term benefit of better motivation in the core assignment, as well as a better flow of information and distribution of new skills across different activities within an enterprise. The principle of embracing failure can even be applied to happiness itself. None of us wants to be unhappy. But inviting sources of unhappiness into life can be extremely beneficial. Resolve not to be afraid of fear, anger, or sadness. They are normal and natural parts of life, after all. And if you let them, they will help you savor (享受) the joys of life all the more. 51. What did the experiment at the improvisation club find? A. Avoiding awkwardness improved improvisers’ creativity. B. Actively embracing awkwardness increased engagement. C. Professional improvisers performed better than amateurs. D. Discomfort negatively impacted participants’ motivation. 52. Why does the author advise students to take unfamiliar classes? A. To reduce their academic pressure. B. To increase their studying interests. C. To avoid errors in their preferred field. D. To indirectly strengthen their major subjects. 53. What is the long-term effect of the “75/25 rule”? A. Employees are more motivated and multi-skilled. B. Competitions among colleagues get more intense. C. New and difficult assignments become effortless. D. Conflicts in workplace disappear completely. 54. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the last paragraph?​​ A. To provide a summary of the previous arguments. B. To present the most important application of the principle. C. To encourage a shift in readers’fundamental attitude towards emotions. D. To warn about the potential dangers of pursuing happiness directly. 55. Which is the best title of the text? A. The Different Ways to Avoid Failure. B. The Benefits of Doing Things You’re Bad at. C. The Advice on How to Seek Happiness. D. The Reasons Why You’re in Negative Moods. 第四节：阅读表达(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 A grandmother cooks chicken. A group of kids, ages 8 to 14, watch her make the dish. This cooking class is part of a “Summer Camp” in Southern California. At this camp, grandmas are in charge. Each week, they teach young campers how to cook a new dish and do crafts. “Loneliness is something that seniors are challenged with，and they love having younger people around them,” said Zainab, who works at Olive Community Services that brings older adults together and created the camp. During the last week of the camp, a 9-year-old Janna learned how to use a sewing machine and make pockets. The camper had pressed hard on the machine’s pedal, making the needle move quickly. “Slowly, slowly,” Rahim, a grandma teaching the sewing class, said to her. The girl smiled when she made it. Rahim said the camp is “filling a gap” for kids. Many schools don’t teach these skills like cooking and sewing. Rahim also doesn’t get to spend much time with her grandchildren because they don’t live close. “It is heartwarming to be able to interact with those who love being around you,” she said. The summer camp was organized through a partnership with the Golden Connections Club started by a 14-year-old high school student Leena to encourage teens and seniors to interact. She noticed that many students didn’t have the chance to spend as much time with their grandparents. She also learned about challenges faced by senior adults, such as unfair treatment. The club organizes monthly lunches at Leena’s school. They invite the seniors to the school and discuss topics where both groups can learn from each other. One of the most valuable lessons they’ve shared with her is to live in the moment, and this has taken on new meaning for Leena. “The people we have right now, they’re not going to be with us forever,” she said. 56.
