These tickets can be bought by clicking the following green “Buy” button if still available. (我们将提供数量有限的早鸟折扣票，售价129英镑，可节省20英镑。若仍有剩余，可点击下方绿色“购买”按钮购买。)”可知，早鸟票数量有限，想省钱需尽快购票。故选B项。 B Britain has some pretty little seaside towns, but the problem is that people won’t leave them alone. It’s Google’s fault — for always providing links to articles about them. Within seconds, Londoners are on their way to buy a second home. They arrive like the middle-class Vikings, but in Range Rovers rather than longboats. They make it harder for locals to rent and, being seasonal visitors who leave when summer ends, the shops close. A vote in Whitby, Yorkshire, showed people want to stop new houses being sold to second-homers. Maybe we shouldn’t think of them as Vikings, but as Greeks in wooden horses. Is this too simplistic? Pretty little towns do have empty shops, but so do ugly big ones. In non-seaside towns, a butcher’s becomes a betting shop; in seaside towns, it becomes an art gallery. Sea air makes tourists want to hang pictures on their walls. Londoners know that art likes to fill a vacuum. Tate Modern, the gallery on the south bank of the River Thames, is located in a former power station. It’s so large, you could almost fit a pretty little seaside town inside its entrance hall. Little towns are also losing banks. Does that matter, now that everyone pays by card? It’s not as if artists carry watercolours to pay for shopping. And since they use sunflower oil for paintings, they at least have something to cook with if the card machine fails. The art world is full of surprises: buildings that were banks become art shops, while walls decorated by Banksy — the anonymous (匿名的) street artist — become artworks themselves. His surprise murals (壁画) are so valuable that they turn building exteriors into galleries. That way, the inside is free to carry on being an empty shop — unless, of course, the greengrocer has left a banana inside. 4. What causes Londoners to buy seaside homes? A. Articles about pretty little towns. B. Google’s travel recommendations. C. Cheap housing prices there. D. Better weather conditions. 5. How do second-home owners affect local shops? A. They help shops stay open longer. B. They open more art galleries. C. They make shops close seasonally. D. They improve shop quality. 6. What is the trend in seaside town shops? A. From betting shops to supermarkets. B. From banks to watercolor stores. C. From galleries to butcher’s shops. D. From local shops to art galleries. 7. What is the author’s writing style? A. Formal and academic. B. Objective and neutral. C. Emotional and passionate. D. Humorous and ironic. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇社会评论文章。文章以幽默讽刺的笔调探讨了英国海滨小镇因伦敦人购买第二套房而引发的社会问题，包括当地社区变化、商店转型以及艺术化趋势。文章通过比喻和夸张手法，生动地描绘了这一现象。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“It’s Google’s fault——for always providing links to articles about them. Within seconds, Londoners are on their way to buy a second home. (这是谷歌的错 —— 它总是提供关于这些海滨小镇的文章链接。转眼间，伦敦人就动身去那里买第二套房了。)”可知，关于美丽小镇的文章促使伦敦人购买海滨房产。故选A项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“They make it harder for locals to rent and, being seasonal visitors who leave when summer ends, the shops close. (他们让当地人租房变得更困难，而且由于这些游客是季节性的 —— 夏天结束就离开，相关店铺也会随之关门。)”可知，二套房业主作为季节性访客，导致当地商店季节性关门。故选C项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“In non-seaside towns, a butcher’s becomes a betting shop; in seaside towns, it becomes an art gallery. (在非海滨小镇，肉铺变成了博彩店；而在海滨小镇，它变成了艺术画廊。)”可知，海滨小镇的商店趋势是从本地特色店铺转变为艺术画廊。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“They arrive like the middle-class Vikings, but in Range Rovers rather than longboats. They make it harder for locals to rent and, being seasonal visitors who leave when summer ends, the shops close. A vote in Whitby, Yorkshire, showed people want to stop new houses being sold to second-homers. Maybe we shouldn’t think of them as Vikings, but as Greeks in wooden horses.(他们宛如中产阶级版的维京人登场，只不过乘坐的是揽胜越野车，而非长船。他们让当地人租房变得更困难，而且由于这些游客是季节性的 —— 夏天一结束就离开，相关店铺也会随之关门。约克郡惠特比的一次投票显示，民众希望禁止新建房屋出售给第二居所购房者。或许我们不该把他们视作维京人，而应看作藏在木马里的希腊人。)”文中“middle-class Vikings (中产阶级维京人)”“Greeks in wooden horses (木马里的希腊人)”以及第五段“And since they use sunflower oil for paintings, they at least have something to cook with if the card machine fails (既然他们用葵花籽油作画，万一刷卡机坏了，至少还有东西可以做饭)” 等表述可知，作者语言幽默且带有讽刺意味。故选D项。 C A team at the United Kingdom’s Loughborough University recently made what is literally the world’s smallest violin. At only 35 micrometers long and 13 micrometers wide, the “instrument” is thinner than a human hair. Don’t expect to hear any small music, however. In this case, engineers designed a nanoscale (纳米级) image of a violin instead of a playable instrument. Regardless, the milestone wasn’t intended as a trick — it’s helping experts push the limits when it comes to future electronics and computer chips (芯片). For decades, electronics designers and producers have consistently reduced the size of projects while meantime improving performance standards. Computer chips have doubled their capacity (容量) around every 1.5 to 2 years, in keeping with a theory known as Moore’s Law, which largely holds up even after 60 years. But at a certain point in the not-too-distant future, producers will simply run out of physical, upgradable space for data, which is where quantum (量子) computing may come into play. Until then, researchers must turn to increasingly advanced techniques to design nanoscopic electronics. One such approach is nanolithography (纳米光刻技术) — and Loughborough University’s Physics department recently bought a new system designed for just such tasks. “Our nanolithography system allows us to design experiments that explore materials in different ways — using light, magnetism, or electricity — and observe their responses,” experimental physics professor Kelly Morrison said. “Once we understand how materials behave, we can start applying that knowledge to develop new technologies, whether it’s improving computing efficiency or finding new ways to get energy.” With their test project completed, researchers have already moved on to more advanced investigations. One current project involves developing replacements for magnetic data storage methods, while another is examining how heat may help design faster, more efficient storage and processing capabilities. “Though creating the world’s smallest violin may seem like fun and games, a lot of what we’ve learned in the process has actually laid the groundwork for the research we’re now undertaking,” said Morrison. “But first, we need to understand the fundamental science and this system enables us to do just that.” 8. What is the engineers’ purpose in making the nanoscale violin? A. To make real music. B. To test a new theory. C To advance electronics. D. To break a world record. 9. What can we know about nanolithography from the text? A. It contributes to making computer chips safe. B. It aims to make playable nanoscale instruments. C. It helps researchers to learn more about materials. D. It is first developed by Loughborough for quantum computing. 10. What is Professor Morrison’s attitude towards the research? A. Positive. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Uncaring. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Moore’s Law and its application. B. The development of quantum computing. C. The advantages of the world’s smallest violin. D. The research on nanoscopic electronics and its future. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国拉夫堡大学团队制作出世界最小纳米级小提琴，其并非可演奏乐器，而是为推动电子与芯片技术，还介绍纳米光刻技术及团队后续研究，为相关技术奠基。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Regardless, the milestone wasn’t intended as a trick — it’s helping experts push the limits when it comes to future electronics and computer chips (芯片).(尽管如此，这一里程碑并非旨在搞噱头 —— 它正帮助专家们在未来电子设备和计算机芯片领域突破极限)”可知，工程师们制造这种纳米级小提琴的目的是推动电子技术的发展。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Our nanolithography system allows us to design experiments that explore materials in different ways-using light, magnetism, or electricity — and observe their responses(我们的纳米光刻系统使我们能够设计出各种实验，以不同的方式（利用光、磁力或电能）来研究材料，并观察其反应)”可知，纳米光刻技术有助于研究人员更深入地了解材料。故选C。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段““Though creating the world’s smallest violin may seem like fun and games, a lot of what we’ve learned in the process has actually laid the groundwork for the research we’re now undertaking,” said Morrison.(莫里森说：“尽管制造出世界上最小的小提琴看似只是些好玩的小事，但在这个过程中我们所学到的很多知识实际上为我们现在正在进行的研究奠定了基础。”)”可知，莫里森教授对这项研究持积极态度。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第二段“In this case, engineers designed a nanoscale (纳米级) image of a violin instead of a playable instrument. Regardless, the milestone wasn’t intended as a trick — it’s helping experts push the limits when it comes to future electronics and computer chips (芯片).(在这种情况下，工程师们设计的并非是一把可演奏的乐器，而是一个纳米级别的小提琴图像。尽管如此，这一里程碑并非旨在搞噱头 —— 它正帮助专家们在未来电子设备和计算机芯片领域突破极限)”可知，文章主要介绍了英国拉夫堡大学团队制作出世界最小纳米级小提琴，其目的是推动电子与芯片技术，还介绍纳米光刻技术及团队后续研究，为相关技术奠基。由此可知，这篇文章的主要观点是有关纳米级电子学的研究及其未来。故选D。 D Media literacy (素养) is finally getting some late-arriving attention. Whether it’s the increasing awareness of political disinformation or the threat of AI, discussions about media literacy are on the rise. The adoption of media literacy in the classroom, however, stagnates. The driving force for providing kids with media literacy skills often gets lost in the moral panic over technology and kids. Fear has overrun reason, and people can’t decide whether to blame social media, mobile devices, tech companies, or the Internet. They are concerned with claims that technology and social media are the causes of teenage mental health issues despite the weak associations. In response, too many solutions are “ostrich policies (鸵鸟政策) ” that want to ban devices and shut down social media but don’t address more fundamental issues. Policies that set age limits on social media access and restrict devices during school to minimize disturbance can be helpful but are incomplete solutions. Social media didn’t invent bullies (霸凌) or the enormous effect of peer pressure. Social media platforms may be a new battleground, but they are not the source. Unfortunately, many current policies ignore the need to teach kids how to manage these challenges. There is frighteningly little attention paid to preparing kids to make good decisions when they will, unavoidably, get online. On the bright side, the rapid development of AI and increasing attention to the amount of misinformation online have helped normalize the acceptance of media literacy as a core skill. While suggestions to limit inappropriate device use, increase face-to-face socialization, and engage in outdoor play arc beneficial, they do not build the core skills that will keep kids safe offline and are fundamental to well-being and life success: good citizenship, self-awareness and self-control. Those things take teaching, whether you are online or outside. Media literacy is an essential life skill that, once learned, can be applied to any content. While waiting for public education to catch up, parents and educators can build media literacy skills at home with numerous resources, ranging from family technology contracts and discussion guides to easy activities that can be done at home with kids. 12. What does the underlined word “stagnates” in the first paragraph probably mean? A. Gets far ahead. B. Falls apart suddenly. C. Falls well short. D. Gets started officially. 13. What causes people’s moral panic over technology and kids? A. Belief in the rapid growth of new technologies B. Concern over cutting kids off from the Internet C. Inability to balance the use of social media and health. D. Fear of technology causing mental health issues in teenagers. 14. What does paragraph 3 of the text focus on? A. The sources of peer pressure. B. The benefits of minimizing disturbance. C. The problems of current policies. D. The disadvantages of social media platforms 15. Which of the following belongs to media literacy? A Reducing social media exposure. B. Applying critical thinking to media. C. Increasing face-to-face interactions. D. Recognizing the dangers of social media 【答案】12. C 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了媒体素养的重要性，以及如何培养媒体素养。 【12题详解】 词义猜测题。根据第一段中“Whether it’s the increasing awareness of political disinformation or the threat of AI, discussions about media literacy are on the rise.(无论是对政治虚假信息的日益意识，还是人工智能的威胁，关于媒体素养的讨论都在增加)”以及划线单词句中“The adoption of media literacy in the classroom, however, …(然而，媒体素养在课堂上的普及却……)”可知，此处关于媒体素养的讨论在增加，但是媒体素养在课堂上的普及却停滞不前。故可猜测划线单词stagnates为“停滞不前”的意思，和C选项Falls well short“远远不够”意思相近。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The driving force for providing kids with media literacy skills often gets lost in the moral panic over technology and kids. Fear has overrun reason, and people can’t decide whether to blame social media, mobile devices, tech companies, or the Internet. They are concerned with claims that technology and social media are the causes of teenage mental health issues despite the weak associations.(在对科技和孩子的道德恐慌中，为孩子们提供媒体素养技能的驱动力往往会消失。恐惧已经超越了理性，人们无法决定是归咎于社交媒体、移动设备、科技公司还是互联网。他们担心科技和社交媒体是青少年心理健康问题的原因，尽管两者之间的联系很弱)”可知，对科技的恐惧导致青少年的心理健康问题导致了人们对科技和孩子的道德恐慌。故选D项。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Policies that set age limits on social media access and restrict devices during school to minimize disturbance can be helpful but are incomplete solutions. Social media didn’t invent bullies (霸凌) or the enormous effect of peer pressure. Social media platforms may be a new battleground, but they are not the source. Unfortunately, many current policies ignore the need to teach kids how to manage these challenges.(设置社交媒体使用年龄限制和在校期间限制使用电子设备以尽量减少干扰的政策可能会有所帮助，但这是不完整的解决方案。社交媒体并没有发明欺凌或同伴压力的巨大影响。社交媒体平台可能是一个新的战场，但它们不是源头。不幸的是，许多现行政策忽视了教育孩子如何应对这些挑战的必要性)”可知，第三段主要关注的是当前政策的问题。故选C项。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Media literacy is an essential life skill that, once learned, can be applied to any content. While waiting for public education to catch up, parents and educators can build media literacy skills at home with numerous resources, ranging from family technology contracts and discussion guides to easy activities that can be done at home with kids.(媒体素养是一项重要的生活技能，一旦学会，就可以应用于任何内容。在等待公共教育迎头赶上的同时，父母和教育工作者可以在家里利用大量资源培养媒体素养技能，从家庭技术合同和讨论指南到可以在家里和孩子一起做的简单活动)”可知，文章强调媒体素养是一种生活技能，能应用于任何内容，是让孩子在网络世界做出正确决策，学会应对挑战等的能力。由此可推知，B 选项“对媒体运用批判性思维”属于这种能力，符合媒体素养定义。故选B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。 How to Work with Different Cultures Working effectively with different cultures is a necessary skill for anyone in a culturally diverse work environment. Cultural variations in the workplace may range from simple regional differences, such as varying dialects (方言), to different viewpoints on timeliness, efficiency, and communication. ____16____ Be aware of your words and actions. What seems proper to you may not be a cultural standard to another person. ____17____ Is what you’re about to say possibly rude? If so, figure out a way to express it differently. Before you give someone at work a high five or a pat on the back, take a moment to consider your actions. Based on what you know about that culture, is touching in the workplace proper? Practise patience. It may take a while for you to get used to working with people from different cultures. Don’t worry, that’s normal. Try not to get angry if communication takes a little extra effort at first. For example, maybe you are now working with someone whose first language is not your mother tongue. In this case, they might not understand your point. ____18____ Try saying, “OK, I can see I’m not making myself clear. How can I help us get on the same page?” Look at issues from a different angle (角度). Don’t assume that you are all looking at the issue from the same angle. It’s possible that you might think you’re working with the same goals in mind, but others may have different ideas about how to achieve them. ____19____ Looking at an issue from another point of view can help you find solutions that you might not have considered. ____20____ But if you put yourself in the right frame of mind, you will likely find it a rewarding experience despite some challenges. A. An important way is trying to be humorous. B. A good rule is to consider your words before you speak. C. Learning to communicate better helps you work with people. D. There are suggestions for you to work with different cultures. E. Once someone explains their viewpoint, take some time to reflect. F. Instead of getting impatient, try to treat it as a learning experience. G. If you’ve never worked with different cultures before, it can be difficult. 【答案】16. D 17. B 18. F 19. E 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了如何在多元文化的工作环境中与不同文化背景的人有效合作。 【16题详解】 上文“Cultural variations in the workplace may range from simple regional differences, such as varying dialects, to different viewpoints on timeliness, efficiency, and communication.(工作场所的文化差异可能从简单的地区差异，如不同的方言，到对准时、效率和沟通的不同观点)”描述了工作场所中文化差异的多样性，下文则给出了具体的建议来应对这些文化差异。因此，空白处需要一个过渡句来引出下文的建议。选项D“There are suggestions for you to work with different cultures.(有一些建议可以帮助你与不同文化背景的人合作)”符合语境。故选D。 【17题详解】 上文“Be aware of your words and actions. What seems proper to you may not be a cultural standard to another person.(注意你的言行。对你来说合适的事情可能对另一个人来说不是文化标准)”强调了要注意自己的言行举止，因为不同文化背景下的人对同一行为的看法可能不同；下文“Is what you’re about to say possibly rude? If so, figure out a way to express it differently.(你要说的话有可能粗鲁吗？如果是这样，想出另一种表达方式)”进一步强调了说话前要考虑清楚，避免冒犯他人，空处强调说话前要考虑清楚。选项B“A good rule is to consider your words before you speak.(一个好的规则是在说话前要考虑你的话)”符合语境。故选B。 【18题详解】 上文“For example, maybe you are now working with someone whose first language is not your mother tongue. In this case, they might not understand your point.(例如，也许你现在和一个第一语言不是你母语的人一起工作。在这种情况下，他们可能不明白你的意思)”描述了与母语不同的人合作时可能遇到的沟通障碍，下文“Try saying, “OK, I can see I’m not making myself clear. How can I help us get on the same page?”(试着说，“好吧，我看我没说清楚。我怎样才能帮助我们达成共识呢？”)”给出了一个应对沟通障碍的建议，即保持耐心并尝试以不同的方式表达。空处强调保持耐心的重要性。选项F“Instead of getting impatient, try to treat it as a learning experience.(与其变得不耐烦，不如试着把它当作一次学习经历)”符合语境。故选F。 【19题详解】 上文“Don’t assume that you are all looking at the issue from the same angle. It’s possible that you might think you’re working with the same goals in mind, but others may have different ideas about how to achieve them.(不要认为你们都是从同一个角度看问题。有可能你认为你们心中有着相同的目标，但其他人可能对如何实现这些目标有不同的想法)”强调了要理解不同文化背景下的人可能有不同的观点和解决问题的方法，下文“Looking at an issue from another point of view can help you find solutions that you might not have considered.(从另一个角度看问题可以帮助你找到你可能没有考虑过的解决方案)”进一步强调了从不同角度看问题的重要性。空处强调在理解他人观点后要进行反思。选项E“Once someone explains their viewpoint, take some time to reflect.(一旦有人解释了他们的观点，花点时间反思一下)”符合语境。故选E。 【20题详解】 下文“But if you put yourself in the right frame of mind, you will likely find it a rewarding experience despite some challenges.(但是如果你把自己放在正确的心态上，你可能会发现尽管有一些挑战，但这仍然是一次有价值的经历)”强调了尽管与不同文化背景的人合作可能面临挑战，但保持正确的心态可以使其成为一次有价值的经历。空处强调与不同文化背景的人合作的难度。选项G“If you’ve never worked with different cultures before, it can be difficult.(如果你以前从未与不同文化背景的人合作过，这可能会很困难)”符合语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用 (共两节，满分30分) 第一节 (共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When studying at the University of Pittsburgh, I went home to Virginia to see my family one weekend. “Look, I got a best sportsman’s jacket!” I said. Dad ____21____ took his eyes off the TV. I had wanted Dad to ____22____ me all my life, but nothing ever seemed ____23____ enough. I got rid of my ____24____ and went back to Pittsburgh. A month later, Mom called and said that Dad’s diabetes (糖尿病) had gotten worse. “I’m coming home.” I said. “You’re going to need help.” I moved to a/an ____25____ near home. Every Sunday, with all schoolwork finished, I went home and helped Dad. To my sadness, he ____26____ everything I did. “It’s not you.” Mom explained to me. “What ____27____ him makes him feel bad about himself. His anger was masking (掩饰) his frustration (挫败).” I was so ____28____ to hear that. Now I saw his pain went beyond the bodily pain, and that made me try harder to ____29____ him.

Though she was small and thin, she loved helping with housework, especially feeding the horses in their big barn (畜棚). One side of the barn housed the horse stalls (马厩), while the other side was piled with hay bales (干草捆) for feeding. One afternoon, Callie went into the barn to feed the horses. As she walked towards the tall stacks of hay, she suddenly stopped. A tiny, weak sound came through the dusty air. Meow... meow...  Her heart jumped. A kitten must be trapped in the hay! Breathing hard, she ran back to find Ben and her father. “Dad! Ben! Come quick! A kitten is stuck in the hay!” she called urgently. Ben sighed, putting down his tools. Her father looked doubtful. “Probably just the wind, Callie,” he said gently. But they followed her to the barn. They stood quietly near the hay stacks, listening. The barn was silent. “Hear anything?” Ben asked. Their father shook his head. “Nothing, sweetheart. Maybe it was just a mouse. Don’t worry about it.” Disappointed, Callie watched them leave. After dinner, Callie slipped back to the barn, determined. She stood still, listening attentively. And there it was again! Meow... meow... Weaker now, but clear. She raced back to the house. Her father was watching TV. “Dad, please!” she pleaded (恳求). “I heard it again! It is a kitten! Please, just come check one more time?” He looked unwilling but saw the real worry in her eyes. “Alright, alright, one last look.” He returned a few minutes later. “Callie, I listened hard. All I heard was an owl outside. No kitten. Try not to worry.” He gave her a tired smile. “Thanks for checking, Dad.” Callie whispered, though she still felt uneasy. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night Callie woke up suddenly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】That night, Callie woke up suddenly. The weak cries filled her mind. She couldn’t rest. Quietly, she put on her coat, took a flashlight and slipped out. Inside the barn, near the hay stacks, Callie held her breath, listening with full attention. Then, it came: Meow... meow... Her flashlight beam swept across the bales. There! Near the bottom of a tall stack, she spotted a tiny movement-a small patch of gray fur barely visible between two enormous bales. She rushed over and pushed the bales again, but they wouldn’t move. “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. She raced back home and quickly awoke Ben and their father. Seeing Callie’s worried face and absolute certainty, they both hurried with her back to the barn. Working together, Ben and their father carefully moved the heavy hay bales which Callie pointed at. Eventually, a narrow passage was revealed. There was a tiny gray kitten, its eyes wide with fright. Trembling and exhausted, it let out another pitiful meow. Carefully, Callie’s father reached in and gently held the little creature out. Callie’s heart swelled with relief and joy as she looked at the rescued kitten, safe and warm in her father’s large, gentle hands. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述10岁女孩卡莉在农场畜棚听到干草堆里有小猫叫声，两次恳求父亲和哥哥查看遭疑，他们分别认为是风声、老鼠或猫头鹰，卡莉虽失望但仍坚信有小猫被困，内心不安。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段内容“那天晚上，卡莉突然醒来。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：卡莉夜探谷仓，用手电筒发现干草堆底部有小灰猫，推干草捆却推不动。 ②由第二段首句内容“卡莉心想：‘我别无选择，只能找人帮忙！’”可以预测续写这段主要内容：卡莉叫醒父兄帮忙，三人挪开干草捆救出受惊小猫，卡莉见状欣慰喜悦。 2.续写线索：卡莉夜探谷仓——发现小灰猫——寻求父兄帮忙——救出受惊小猫——感到欣慰喜悦 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.休息：rest/take a rest ②.看见：spot/see ③.颤抖：tremble/ shake 情绪类 ①.担心的：worried/concerned ②.快乐：joy/happiness/delight 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B Britain has some pretty little seaside towns, but the problem is that people won’t leave them alone. It’s Google’s fault — for always providing links to articles about them. Within seconds, Londoners are on their way to buy a second home. They arrive like the middle-class Vikings, but in Range Rovers rather than longboats. They make it harder for locals to rent and, being seasonal visitors who leave when summer ends, the shops close. A vote in Whitby, Yorkshire, showed people want to stop new houses being sold to second-homers. Maybe we shouldn’t think of them as Vikings, but as Greeks in wooden horses. Is this too simplistic? Pretty little towns do have empty shops, but so do ugly big ones. In non-seaside towns, a butcher’s becomes a betting shop; in seaside towns, it becomes an art gallery. Sea air makes tourists want to hang pictures on their walls. Londoners know that art likes to fill a vacuum. Tate Modern the gallery on the south bank of the River Thames, is located in a former power station. It’s so large, you could almost fit a pretty little seaside town inside its entrance hall. Little towns are also losing banks. Does that matter, now that everyone pays by card? It’s not as if artists carry watercolours to pay for shopping. And since they use sunflower oil for paintings, they at least have something to cook with if the card machine fails. The art world is full of surprises: buildings that were banks become art shops, while walls decorated by Banksy — the anonymous (匿名的) street artist — become artworks themselves. His surprise murals (壁画) are so valuable that they turn building exteriors into galleries. That way, the inside is free to carry on being an empty shop — unless, of course, the greengrocer has left a banana inside. 4. What causes Londoners to buy seaside homes? A. Articles about pretty little towns. B. Google’s travel recommendations. C. Cheap housing prices there. D. Better weather conditions. 5. How do second-home owners affect local shops? A. They help shops stay open longer. B. They open more art galleries. C. They make shops close seasonally. D. They improve shop quality. 6. What is the trend in seaside town shops? A. From betting shops to supermarkets. B. From banks to watercolor stores. C. From galleries to butcher’s shops. D. From local shops to art galleries. 7. What is the author’s writing style? A. Formal and academic. B. Objective and neutral. C. Emotional and passionate. D. Humorous and ironic. C A team at the United Kingdom’s Loughborough University recently made what is literally the world’s smallest violin. At only 35 micrometers long and 13 micrometers wide, the “instrument” is thinner than a human hair. Don’t expect to hear any small music, however. In this case, engineers designed a nanoscale (纳米级) image of a violin instead of a playable instrument. Regardless, the milestone wasn’t intended as a trick — it’s helping experts push the limits when it comes to future electronics and computer chips (芯片). For decades, electronics designers and producers have consistently reduced the size of projects while meantime improving performance standards. Computer chips have doubled their capacity (容量) around every 1.5 to 2 years, in keeping with a theory known as Moore’s Law, which largely holds up even after 60 years. But at a certain point in the not-too-distant future, producers will simply run out of physical, upgradable space for data, which is where quantum (量子) computing may come into play. Until then, researchers must turn to increasingly advanced techniques to design nanoscopic electronics. One such approach is nanolithography (纳米光刻技术) — and Loughborough University’s Physics department recently bought a new system designed for just such tasks. “Our nanolithography system allows us to design experiments that explore materials in different ways — using light, magnetism, or electricity — and observe their responses,” experimental physics professor Kelly Morrison said. “Once we understand how materials behave, we can start applying that knowledge to develop new technologies, whether it’s improving computing efficiency or finding new ways to get energy.” With their test project completed, researchers have already moved on to more advanced investigations. One current project involves developing replacements for magnetic data storage methods, while another is examining how heat may help design faster, more efficient storage and processing capabilities. “Though creating the world’s smallest violin may seem like fun and games, a lot of what we’ve learned in the process has actually laid the groundwork for the research we’re now undertaking,” said Morrison. “But first, we need to understand the fundamental science and this system enables us to do just that.” 8 What is the engineers’ purpose in making the nanoscale violin? A. To make real music. B. To test a new theory. C. To advance electronics. D. To break a world record. 9. What can we know about nanolithography from the text? A. It contributes to making computer chips safe. B. It aims to make playable nanoscale instruments. C. It helps researchers to learn more about materials. D. It is first developed by Loughborough for quantum computing. 10. What is Professor Morrison’s attitude towards the research? A. Positive. B. Unclear. C. Doubtful. D. Uncaring. 11. What is the main idea of the text? A. Moore’s Law and its application. B. The development of quantum computing. C. The advantages of the world’s smallest violin. D. The research on nanoscopic electronics and its future. D Media literacy (素养) is finally getting some late-arriving attention. Whether it’s the increasing awareness of political disinformation or the threat of AI, discussions about media literacy are on the rise. The adoption of media literacy in the classroom, however, stagnates. The driving force for providing kids with media literacy skills often gets lost in the moral panic over technology and kids. Fear has overrun reason, and people can’t decide whether to blame social media, mobile devices, tech companies, or the Internet. They are concerned with claims that technology and social media are the causes of teenage mental health issues despite the weak associations. In response, too many solutions are “ostrich policies (鸵鸟政策) ” that want to ban devices and shut down social media but don’t address more fundamental issues. Policies that set age limits on social media access and restrict devices during school to minimize disturbance can be helpful but are incomplete solutions. Social media didn’t invent bullies (霸凌) or the enormous effect of peer pressure. Social media platforms may be a new battleground, but they are not the source. Unfortunately, many current policies ignore the need to teach kids how to manage these challenges. There is frighteningly little attention paid to preparing kids to make good decisions when they will, unavoidably, get online. On the bright side, the rapid development of AI and increasing attention to the amount of misinformation online have helped normalize the acceptance of media literacy as a core skill. While suggestions to limit inappropriate device use, increase face-to-face socialization, and engage in outdoor play arc beneficial, they do not build the core skills that will keep kids safe offline and are fundamental to well-being and life success: good citizenship, self-awareness and self-control. Those things take teaching, whether you are online or outside. Media literacy is an essential life skill that, once learned, can be applied to any content. While waiting for public education to catch up, parents and educators can build media literacy skills at home with numerous resources, ranging from family technology contracts and discussion guides to easy activities that can be done at home with kids. 12.

Though she was small and thin, she loved helping with housework, especially feeding the horses in their big barn (畜棚). One side of the barn housed the horse stalls (马厩), while the other side was piled with hay bales (干草捆) for feeding. One afternoon, Callie went into the barn to feed the horses. As she walked towards the tall stacks of hay, she suddenly stopped. A tiny, weak sound came through the dusty air. Meow... meow...  Her heart jumped. A kitten must be trapped in the hay! Breathing hard, she ran back to find Ben and her father. “Dad! Ben! Come quick! A kitten is stuck in the hay!” she called urgently. Ben sighed, putting down his tools. Her father looked doubtful. “Probably just the wind, Callie,” he said gently. But they followed her to the barn. They stood quietly near the hay stacks, listening. The barn was silent. “Hear anything?” Ben asked. Their father shook his head. “Nothing, sweetheart. Maybe it was just a mouse. Don’t worry about it.” Disappointed, Callie watched them leave. After dinner, Callie slipped back to the barn, determined. She stood still, listening attentively. And there it was again! Meow... meow... Weaker now, but clear. She raced back to the house. Her father was watching TV. “Dad, please!” she pleaded (恳求). “I heard it again! It is a kitten! Please, just come check one more time?” He looked unwilling but saw the real worry in her eyes. “Alright, alright, one last look.” He returned a few minutes later. “Callie, I listened hard. All I heard was an owl outside. No kitten. Try not to worry.” He gave her a tired smile. “Thanks for checking, Dad.” Callie whispered, though she still felt uneasy. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 That night, Callie woke up suddenly. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “I have no choice but to get help!” Callie thought to herself. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
