【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When the tropical cyclone (热带气旋) warning signal No. 8 or above or the black rainstorm signal is in effect, or when there are other severe weather conditions, all department heads should, in response to the government’s appeal, adopt a sympathetic and flexible approach in making arrangements for students and give due consideration to their safety and the practicality of them travelling from home to campus.(当八号或以上热带气旋警告信号、黑色暴雨警告信号生效,或出现其他恶劣天气状况时,各部门负责人应响应政府号召,在为学生做安排时采取体谅且灵活的方式,充分考虑学生的安全以及他们往返家校的可行性。)”可知,在恶劣天气条件下,部门主管应该对校园活动做出调整。故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格下面第一段“If the announcement of “extreme condition” by the Government is issued at 7:00 a.m. or after, all classes will be suspended (暂停) for the whole day.(若政府在上午7:00或之后发布“极端情况”公告,则全天停课。)”、表格下面第二段“If the local Tropical Cyclone Warning Signal No. 8 or above, the Black Rainstorm Signal or the announcement of “extreme condition” by the Government is issued during a class period, all classes will be suspended immediately. Students are advised to take shelter at a safe place until the weather and traffic conditions have improved.(如果在上课期间发出当地8号或以上热带气旋警告信号、黑色暴雨警告信号或政府宣布“极端情况”,所有课程将立即暂停。建议学生在天气和交通状况改善前,在安全的地方避难。)”可知,如果当地风暴警告信号10号在中午12点生效,学生应该待在室内直到风暴减弱。故选B。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“When the tropical cyclone (热带气旋) warning signal No. 8 or above or the black rainstorm signal is in effect, or when there are other severe weather conditions, all department heads should, in response to the government’s appeal, adopt a sympathetic and flexible approach in making arrangements for students and give due consideration to their safety and the practicality of them travelling from home to campus.(当八号或以上热带气旋警告信号、黑色暴雨警告信号生效,或出现其他恶劣天气状况时,各部门负责人应响应政府号召,在为学生做安排时采取体谅且灵活的方式,充分考虑学生的安全以及他们往返家校的可行性。)”以及第一个小标题“Students should refer to the University’s guidelines below:(学生应参考以下大学指引:)”可知,文章主要讲述了在极端天气条件下学校对学生课程安排和校园交通的调整通知,所以文章的目的是宣布极端风暴期间校园的一般安排。故选D。
As 18,000 hockey fans crowded into Climate Pledge Arena for the Seattle Kraken’s first home game, Brian Hamilton, the assistant equipment manager for the visiting Vancouver Canucks, laid out the team’s hockey sticks, masks and bottled water. As he did so, he didn’t notice the woman, Nadia Popovici, who sat directly behind him. Nor did she pay much attention to him. That would change soon.
Halfway through the action, Popovici’s eyes locked onto something peculiar on the man. Through the glass, she spotted an odd-looking mole (痣) on the back of Hamilton’s neck, reddish with an irregular border. She had seen plenty like it as a hospital volunteer and soon-to-be medical student. It was a melanoma (黑素瘤).
“It’s so uncomfortable to have something on your body pointed out,” she told the Seattle Times. But she knew she had to say something. As Hamilton walked near the ice between periods, Popovici, in Kraken gear, knocked hard on the glass, typed a message on her phone and held the screen high enough: “The mole on the back of your neck looks like cancerous. Go see a doctor!”
Hamilton glanced at the brightly-lit message for only a second. That’s weird, he thought. Walking away, he uneasily rubbed the back of his neck. A few days later, he visited the Canucks’ doctor, who agreed that the mole looked alarming and ordered a biopsy (活组织检查). It came back positive — a stage-Ⅱ malignant melanoma, life-threatening if left unattended. Hamilton had the cancerous mole removed, and the surgery was excellent.
“She took me out of a slow fire,” says Hamilton. “The words out of the doctor’s mouth were if I ignored that for four to five years, I wouldn’t be here.” The two connected at the next Canucks-Kraken game, where Hamilton was able to thank her in person. No thanks were necessary, Popovici said. “It was just one moment in our lives where we crossed paths at the right time.”
4. What made Popovici decide to tell Hamilton about the spot on his neck?
A. Medical knowledge. B. Personal relationship.
C. Overheard comments. D. Professional responsibility.
5. How did Popovici communicate her concern to Hamilton during the game?
A. By shouting aloud from a distance. B. By asking a doctor for help.
C. By showing him the message on the phone. D. By writing a note behind the glass.
6. How did Hamilton feel when saying “She took me out of a slow fire”?
A. Terrified. B. Annoyed. C. Surprised. D. Grateful.
7. What message does the story convey?
A. Silence is golden. B. Prepare for a rainy day.
C. Opportunity knocks but once. D. Help is a voice, not just a feeling.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了准医学生提醒他人,使其及时切除恶性黑素瘤的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“She had seen plenty like it as a hospital volunteer and soon-to-be medical student. It was a melanoma (黑素瘤).(作为一名医院志愿者,同时也是即将入学的医学生,她见过很多这样的痣。那是一颗黑素瘤)”可知,Popovici凭借医院志愿者经历和准医学生的医学知识,判断出Hamilton脖子上的痣是黑素瘤,进而决定告知他。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“As Hamilton walked near the ice between periods, Popovici, in Kraken gear, knocked hard on the glass, typed a message on her phone and held the screen high enough: “The mole on the back of your neck looks like cancerous. Go see a doctor!”(比赛间隙,Hamilton走到冰面附近时,身着克拉肯队队服的Popovici用力敲了敲玻璃,在手机上打出一条信息,将屏幕举得足够高,上面写着:“你脖子后面的那颗痣看起来像恶性的,快去看医生!”)”可知,比赛期间Popovici通过在手机上打字并展示屏幕的方式,向Hamilton传达了担忧。故选C。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““She took me out of a slow fire,” says Hamilton. “The words out of the doctor’s mouth were if I ignored that for four to five years, I wouldn’t be here.”(Hamilton说:“她把我从慢火煎熬中救了出来。医生说,要是我忽视它四五年,现在就不会在这儿了。”)”可知,Hamilton知道若忽视这个痣可能危及生命,而Popovici的提醒救了他,所以他说“She took me out of a slow fire”是为了体现了他的感激之情。故选D。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。 根据全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了Popovici在观看冰球比赛时,注意到Hamilton脖子上的痣可能是黑素瘤,于是她通过手机信息提醒他去看医生,最终Hamilton及时接受了治疗并康复。这个故事传达了“帮助是一种声音,而不仅仅是一种感觉”的信息,即在关键时刻,及时的提醒和帮助可以挽救生命。故选D。
C
Although I am 28 years old, the time when I feel profoundly 48 is when I get nostalgic (怀旧的) for days when people were able to go on holiday without being continually contacted, because the price of sending a text message was the same as a glass of wine. WhatsApp has changed that.
Unlike social media and email apps, which can be temporarily deleted, WhatsApp is the dominant method that we use to communicate with our loved ones. It is hard to switch off as a result of the constant flow of information. Deleting the app even while on holiday doesn’t feel like an option, when people use it to convey important information alongside everyday dross. And in any case, the problem isn’t the app itself, of course; it’s the fact that being available 24/7 means we have lost our sense of boundaries in terms of what to communicate and when.
“Just don’t reply. What’s the big deal?” said a friend. Easier said than done! Trying to create those boundaries can make you feel like a terrible person. It’s not just about self-imposed pressure, but the subtext (潜台词) of what not replying says. Previously you could blame your silence on high phone network rates or a poor signal, but now a non-response suggests you don’t care.
I have tried a number of tactics to give myself space while on vacation. I turned off read receipts because being visibly online felt very exposing. Turning off notifications came shortly afterwards. On a trip to Greece, I trialed a voice notes and video notes ban. Recently I’ve even gently talked to friends about not sending me non-urgent messages.
It doesn’t matter whether we are leaving the country or holidaying at home, this precious period of quiet may be the closest thing we have to a break. Although we are getting better at knowing how to prioritize rest, there is still a necessity for us to shape our environment to enable this. We also have to consider the role we play in helping our loved ones to recover and refresh.
8. What does the author actually miss?
A. Traditional ways of communication. B. The price of text messages in the past.
C. Holidays without constant communication. D. Experiences of drinking wine with friends.
9. What is the subtext of not replying now according to the author?
A. Too much self-generated pressure. B. The poor mobile signal in the area.
C. A sign of indifference or lack of concern. D. High mobile phone communication costs.
10. What does the underlined word “tactics” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Suggestions. B. Notices. C. Reasons. D. Methods.
11. What does the author try to convey through this text?
A. Be brave enough to say no to unreasonable requests.
B. We should have boundaries when messaging others.
C. It’s necessary for people to obey the social manners.
D. A suitable app makes a great difference to our break.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述作者怀念无频繁联系的假期,探讨即时通讯软件带来的边界感缺失问题及应对办法。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Although I am 28 years old, the time when I feel profoundly 48 is when I get nostalgic (怀旧的) for days when people were able to go on holiday without being continually contacted, because the price of sending a text message was the same as a glass of wine. (虽然我已经 28 岁了,让我深感自己仿佛已48岁的时候,是我怀念那些人们可以不受打扰地度假的日子,那时候发一条短信的价格和一杯葡萄酒差不多)”可知,作者真正怀念的是没有持续通讯打扰的假期。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Previously you could blame your silence on high phone network rates or a poor signal, but now a non-response suggests you don’t care. (以前你还能把不回复归咎于高昂的话费或者信号不好,但现在不回复就意味着你不在意)”可知,作者认为如今不回复消息的潜台词是冷漠或缺乏关心。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“I have tried a number of tactics to give myself space while on vacation. I turned off read receipts because being visibly online felt very exposing. Turning off notifications came shortly afterwards. On a trip to Greece, I trialed a voice notes and video notes ban. Recently I’ve even gently talked to friends about not sending me non-urgent messages. (我尝试过很多tactics,想在度假时给自己留一点私人空间。我关掉了已读回执,因为在线状态一目了然的感觉实在太没有安全感了。不久之后我又关闭了消息通知。有一次去希腊旅行,我试着禁用了语音和视频消息。最近我甚至还委婉地跟朋友们说,别给我发非紧急的消息)”可知,这些都是作者为了在假期获得私人空间采取的具体做法,因此“tactics”的意思是“方法”。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中“And in any case, the problem isn’t the app itself, of course; it’s the fact that being available 24/7 means we have lost our sense of boundaries in terms of what to communicate and when. (当然,问题根本不在于这款应用本身;而在于我们全天候在线,导致在沟通内容和沟通时机上完全失去了边界感)”及全文围绕沟通边界感展开的论述可知,作者想传达的是我们在发消息时应该要有边界感。故选B。
In recent years, much of my life, as a consumer has shifted to what I like to call background spending. As I’ve subscribed to more apps and streaming platforms, significant sums of my money tend to slip away each month without my ever thinking about it.
Think of it as automated trade. Spending without the trouble of spending. Acquisition without action or thought.
But while this flood of subscriptions was sold to me on the condition that it would make my life more trouble free, there was a certain shock I felt upon discovering how much I was spending without realizing each month ($179.45).
You see, the thing about background spending is that it tends to happen, well, in the background without your full attention. And there lies the point.
“Hand over your credit card details and let us take care of the rest,” these companies promise us. But by agreeing to this trade, we’ve become lazy passive consumers. And this laziness breeds more laziness because most of us can’t be bothered with conducting regular reviews of our subscription spending. We’re too lazy to even notice or cancel!
I know it’s not just me who is suddenly living life as a smooth-brained subscriber. The average consumer spends $273 per month on subscriptions, according to a 2021 study of 2,500 by digital services firm West Monroe. Not a single person surveyed knew what his actual monthly spending was.
It’s understandable why this model is so attractive to businesses. As companies questioned traditional advertising models, subscriptions offered the promise of “selling once and earning forever.” And while subscription services have been around for decades (think Wine of the Month Club), more customers have been willing to sign up thanks to the widespread availability of smartphones and the increasing ease of home delivery.
While these subscriptions promise ease and happiness, not all of us are satisfied. Last year, the Kearney Consumer Institute found 40 percent of consumers believe they have too many subscriptions. Almost half of us also think we pay too much for streaming video-on-demand subscriptions.
12. What can we know about background spending in paragraph 2?
A. Its purpose. B. Its feature. C. Its procedure. D. Its requirement.
13. What makes it possible for background spending to happen?
A Its attractive price. B. Some people’s poor habit.
C. Its secure service. D. Some people’s addiction to it.
14. Why is the subscription model appealing to businesses?
A. It offers good home delivery services.
B. It is like traditional advertising models.
C. It is popular among smartphone producers.
D. It brings repeated profits through a single sale.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards background spending?
A. Supportive. B. Optimistic. C. Critical. D. Unclear.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过自己的亲身经历,揭示了订阅服务可能导致消费者在不知不觉中花费巨额资金,同时也指出了这种消费模式的便利性和潜在问题。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Think of it as automated trade. Spending without the trouble of spending. Acquisition without action or thought. (可以把它想象成自动交易。花钱而不用花钱的麻烦。没有行动或思想的获得。)”可知,作者是在描述背景支出的特征,即它是一种自动化的、不需要思考或行动的消费。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段““Hand over your credit card details and let us take care of the rest,” these companies promise us. But by agreeing to this trade, we’ve become lazy passive consumers. And this laziness breeds more laziness because most of us can’t be bothered with conducting regular reviews of our subscription spending. We’re too lazy to even notice or cancel! (这些公司向我们承诺:“交出你的信用卡信息,让我们来处理剩下的事情。”但是通过同意这种交易,我们变成了懒惰的被动消费者。这种懒惰滋生了更多的懒惰,因为我们大多数人都懒得定期检查我们的订阅支出。我们懒得去注意或取消!)”以及第六段中“Not a single person surveyed knew what his actual monthly spending was. (没有一个接受调查的人知道自己每月的实际支出是多少)”可知,是有些人的坏习惯让后台支出成为可能。故选B项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“It’s understandable why this model is so attractive to businesses. As companies questioned traditional advertising models, subscriptions offered the promise of “selling once and earning forever.” And while subscription services have been around for decades (think Wine of the Month Club), more customers have been willing to sign up thanks to the widespread availability of smartphones and the increasing ease of home delivery. (可以理解为什么这种模式对企业如此有吸引力。当公司质疑传统的广告模式时,订阅提供了“一次销售,永远盈利”的承诺。虽然订阅服务已经存在了几十年(想想月度葡萄酒俱乐部),但由于智能手机的普及和送货上门的日益便利,越来越多的客户愿意注册。)”可知,因为订阅模式通过一次销售带来了重复的利润,所以对企业有吸引力。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“While these subscriptions promise ease and happiness, not all of us are satisfied. Last year, the Kearney Consumer Institute found 40 percent of consumers believe they have too many subscriptions. Almost half of us also think we pay too much for streaming video-on-demand subscriptions. (虽然这些订阅承诺了安逸和快乐,但并非所有人都满意。去年,科尔尼消费者研究所发现,40%的消费者认为他们的订阅量太多。近一半的人还认为,我们为流媒体视频点播订阅支付了太多费用。)”可知,作者对后台支出持批评态度,认为消费者为此付出了太多,而收效甚微。故选C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。
For me, it started when I picked up Grant Faulkner’s collection of 100-word stories, *Finsver*. Until that moment, I had no idea that a story could even be told in so few words. ___16___ But I soon ran into tricky troubles, which taught me valuable lessons. Here are tips I learned the hard way so you won’t have to hit the same roadblocks on your journey of writing micro novels.
Outline the entire story. Much like writing any long story that may dishearten you you have the options of building a complete outline of all the events of the story. It helps have an idea of what you want to have happen over the course of that structure. ___17___
Don’t get lost in the details. ___18___ When you write long works, you can find yourself using far more language than you really need to communicate your ideas. When you write micro novels, you have to write only what is necessary. The bottom line is that you have to determine how much you need to give the reader to understand the scene.
___19___ Microfiction can be the twin of prose poetry. Therefore, each word must matter in a micro novel. So you have to be so selective and get comfortable with language. You might even employ poetic devices in your language. At last read your work aloud and feel the rhythms of language fitting comfortably in your mouth.
Start strong and end strong, but don’t leave the middle before. ___20___ Ideally, you still want your readers to start the micro novel and refuse to put it down until they reach the last word. After all, each sentence should carry its own weight as a story.
A. I discovered there were few.
B. Focus on what is most important.
C. Approach each chapter in an exploratory way.
D. After that, I tried my hand at writing micro novels.
E. Pay attention to your language the way a poet would.
F. So you don’t become discouraged with the process and quit it.
G. Make sure you keep your foot on the gas throughout the process.
【答案】16. D 17. F 18. B 19. E 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。作者偶然接触格兰特・福克纳的百字故事集后尝试创作微型小说,历经困难总结经验:需列大纲、聚焦重点、精炼语言、首尾与中间部分并重,助力他人避坑。
【16题详解】
根据上文“For me, it started when I picked up Grant Faulkner’s collection of 100-word stories, *Finsver*. Until that moment, I had no idea that a story could even be told in so few words.(对我来说,这一切始于我拿起格兰特·福克纳编纂的那本包含100个字故事的集子——《鳍之歌》。在此之前,我根本不知道一个故事竟然可以用如此少的字数来讲述)”以及后文“But I soon ran into tricky troubles, which taught me valuable lessons. Here are tips I learned the hard way so you won’t have to hit the same roadblocks on your journey of writing micro novels.(但很快我就遇到了一些棘手的难题,这些经历让我学到了宝贵的经验。以下是我历经艰辛才领悟到的诀窍,希望它们能帮助你在创作微型小说的道路上避免重蹈覆辙)”可知,前文提到“作者偶然发现100字微型小说,此前从未想过故事能如此简短”,后文转折 “但很快遇到棘手问题”。D项“在那之后,我尝试创作微型小说”承上启下,既衔接“发现微型小说”的背景,又自然引出“创作中遇到困难”的后续内容,逻辑连贯。故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Outline the entire story. Much like writing any long story that may dishearten you, you have the options of building a complete outline of all the events of the story. It helps have an idea of what you want to have happen over the course of that structure.(概述整个故事。就像撰写任何可能让您感到沮丧的长篇故事一样,您可以选择为故事中的所有事件构建一个完整的大纲。这有助于您明确在该框架内希望发生的事情)”可知,前文强调“创作微型小说需勾勒完整故事大纲,明确情节走向”。F项“这样你就不会对创作过程感到沮丧而放弃”解释了“列大纲”的作用 —— 避免中途受挫,呼应前文“长篇小说可能让人却步,微型小说也需规划”的隐含逻辑,衔接自然。故选F。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Don’t get lost in the details.(不要被细枝末节所困扰)”以及后文“When you write long works, you can find yourself using far more language than you really need to communicate your ideas. When you write micro novels, you have to write only what is necessary. The bottom line is that you have to determine how much you need to give the reader to understand the scene.(当你撰写长篇作品时,往往会发现自己使用的词汇量远远超过了实际传达思想所需的量。而当你创作微型小说时,则只需写出必要的内容。关键在于要明确需要向读者传达多少信息才能让他们理解所描绘的场景)”可知,本段主旨为“不要迷失在细节中”,后文进一步说明“微型小说需只写必要内容,确定读者理解场景所需的核心信息”。B项“聚焦最重要的内容”直接点明段落核心,与“摒弃冗余细节”的建议高度契合,作为段首主题句统领全段。故选B。
【19题详解】
根据后文“Microfiction can be the twin of prose poetry. Therefore, each word must matter in a micro novel. So you have to be so selective and get comfortable with language. You might even employ poetic devices in your language. At last read your work aloud and feel the rhythms of language fitting comfortably in your mouth.(微型小说可以被视为散文诗的姊妹篇。因此,在微型小说中,每一个字都必须意义非凡。所以,你必须精挑细选,熟练掌握语言运用技巧。你甚至可能会在语言中运用一些诗歌手法。最后,大声朗读你的作品,感受语言的韵律在你的口中自然流畅地流淌)”可知,后文提到“微型小说堪比散文诗,每个词都至关重要,需精挑细选语言,甚至运用诗歌手法,朗读感受语言节奏”。E项“像诗人一样关注你的语言”总领该段内容,精准呼应“散文诗特性”“语言精炼”、“诗意表达”等关键信息,符合段落逻辑。故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Start strong and end strong, but don’t leave the middle before.(要一开始就表现出色,也要在最后阶段保持出色,但切勿在中间阶段就放弃)”以及后文“Ideally, you still want your readers to start the micro novel and refuse to put it down until they reach the last word. After all, each sentence should carry its own weight as a story.(理想情况下,您仍希望读者能够开始阅读微型小说,并一直读到最后一句话才放下。毕竟,每一句话都应当独立承载起故事的重量)”可知,本段主旨为“开头和结尾要有力,中间部分也不能松懈”,后文强调“要让读者一旦开始就欲罢不能,每句话都需承载故事重量”。G项“确保在整个创作过程中始终保持节奏(全力以赴)”呼应“中间不松懈”的要求,“keep your foot on the gas”形象表达“持续发力”,与“每句话都有分量”的建议一致,衔接紧密。故选G。

【答案】Dear Mary,
Thank you for sharing your weekend diet list with me. Knowing that you are interested in making your diet healthier, I’m writing to provide some personalized advice based on your food choices.
Overall, I think your eating habits have room for some adjustments. First and foremost, it’s essential to establish consistent eating habits. What this means is that you should try to have three main meals and a couple of healthy snacks throughout the day to keep your energy levels stable. Beyond this, it couldn’t be better if you could cut down on your sweet drinks and desserts. There is increasing evidence that the real driver of poor health is sugar. Instead of reaching for sugary snacks, consider healthier alternatives such as fresh fruit, nuts, yogurt, or whole grain crackers. These options will satisfy your sweet cravings while providing valuable nutrients and fiber.
If you have any specific questions, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me. I’m sure you will be on the right path towards a healthier eating lifestyle.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语填写明段。使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I’d loved hip-hop dancing since my childhood, and in high school I took classes that focused on jazz and hip-hop. Dance was my favorite class, and I looked forward to it every day. This year, my senior year, was going to be the best dance class.
On the first day of dance class, however, I heard that the new ballet teacher, Ms. Barton, would be strict. Although nervous — I’d never taken ballet — I was up for the challenge.
We all stood at the barre (扶手杆) as Ms. Barton ran us through basic ballet steps — plié, tendu and dégagé. She was just how I had imagined a ballet teacher would be: excellent posture (姿势) with a strict attitude. During exercises, she demanded, “Grand plié!” Along with my fellow classmates, I began my grand plié, with one hand on the barre and the other extended elegantly to the side, slowly lowering myself. I wanted to give myself a pat on the back. But Ms. Barton gave me a stare.
“What is your name?” she asked.
“Sarah Brunner,” I responded with a smile.
“Class, I would like everyone to watch Miss Sarah do a grand plié,” she motioned for me to continue. All my classmates fixed their eyes on me in complete silence. Instead of praise, she told everyone, “This is an obvious example of what not to do.” A wave of pure embarrassment came over me, my face red and eyes watering.
I spent the rest of the day replaying this awful moment, wondering if I should quit. But my pride wouldn’t allow it. As I lay in bed that night, I knew I was going back. I could do it. I would show Ms. Barton.
I persisted (坚持) day by day, week by week, and I was proud to say that I was still standing by the end of the semester. I felt like Ms. Barton and I had developed an agreeable relationship. To everyone’s surprise — especially Ms. Barton’s — I chose to perform in her closing ballet piece in our final four-day show at our high-school theater.
注意:
(1) 填写词数应为150左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The big day for my performance came.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When I stepped off the stage, Ms. Barton made her way to me smilingly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The big day for my performance came. My hands shook slightly as I waited backstage, the embarrassing memory of that first day flashing through my mind repeatedly. When the music started, I stepped onto the stage, eyes fixed on the spotlights. I moved through pliés, each step practiced hundreds of times. I danced not for applause, but for myself, pouring the determination I had built since that first day into the performance. As I finished the grand plié perfectly, the theater erupted in warm applause. My heart raced with a mixture of relief and pride.
When I stepped off the stage, Ms. Barton made her way to me smilingly. She placed a firm but gentle hand on my shoulder. “I’m truly impressed, Sarah,” she said, her usual strict tone gone. “That was graceful—you’ve worked incredibly hard.” I stared at her, surprised by her praise I had once thought impossible to earn from her. “Thank you, Ms. Barton,” I replied, grinning. She patted my shoulder softly. “Effort and persistence pay off,” she said. At that moment, I realized her strictness was never cruel, but a push to grow. Ballet, once a challenge, had become another passion—all thanks to her strict demands and my refusal to back down.
【解析】
【导语】本文讲述“爵士嘻哈女孩”Sarah被芭蕾严师当众批评后,从羞愧、想放弃到咬牙坚持、终在毕业演出完美完成grand plié的逆袭,传达严师出高徒,不放弃才会取得成功的主题。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
① 由首句“演出的大日子来了。”可知,作者登上舞台之前应该还是会紧张,但是在舞台灯光下完美地完成了grand plié,从而赢得了掌声,完成动作与心理双重高潮。
② 由第二句“走下舞台时,巴顿女士含笑向我走来。”可知,这一段先从老师的转变开始,这让作者受到启发,点题老师的严格要求是成长推手,从而实现人物关系翻转。
2. 续写线索:grand plié被当做反面教材→日日扶杆苦练→主动请战终演→后台很紧张→灯光下完美grand plié→掌声雷动→严师笑夸→顿悟老师的严格要求是礼物
3. 词汇激活
行为类
①发抖:shake/tremble
②关注:fix one’s eyes on/gaze at
③鼓掌:applause/cheer
④笑:grin/smile

As 18000 hockey fans crowded into Climate Pledge Arena for the Seattle Kraken’s first home game, Brian Hamilton, the assistant equipment manager for the visiting Vancouver Canucks, laid out the team’s hockey sticks, masks and bottled water. As he did so, he didn’t notice the woman, Nadia Popovici, who sat directly behind him. Nor did she pay much attention to him. That would change soon.
Halfway through the action, Popovici’s eyes locked onto something peculiar on the man. Through the glass, she spotted an odd-looking mole (痣) on the back of Hamilton’s neck, reddish with an irregular border. She had seen plenty like it as a hospital volunteer and soon-to-be medical student. It was a melanoma (黑素瘤).
“It’s so uncomfortable to have something on your body pointed out,” she told the Seattle Times. But she knew she had to say something. As Hamilton walked near the ice between periods, Popovici, in Kraken gear, knocked hard on the glass, typed a message on her phone and held the screen high enough: “The mole on the back of your neck looks like cancerous. Go see a doctor!”
Hamilton glanced at the brightly-lit message for only a second. That’s weird, he thought. Walking away, he uneasily rubbed the back of his neck. A few days later, he visited the Canucks’ doctor, who agreed that the mole looked alarming and ordered a biopsy (活组织检查). It came back positive — a stage-Ⅱ malignant melanoma, life-threatening if left unattended. Hamilton had the cancerous mole removed, and the surgery was excellent.
“She took me out of a slow fire,” says Hamilton. “The words out of the doctor’s mouth were if I ignored that for four to five years, I wouldn’t be here.” The two connected at the next Canucks-Kraken game, where Hamilton was able to thank her in person. No thanks were necessary, Popovici said. “It was just one moment in our lives where we crossed paths at the right time.”
4. What made Popovici decide to tell Hamilton about the spot on his neck?
A. Medical knowledge. B. Personal relationship.
C. Overheard comments. D. Professional responsibility.
5. How did Popovici communicate her concern to Hamilton during the game?
A By shouting aloud from a distance. B. By asking a doctor for help.
C. By showing him the message on the phone. D. By writing a note behind the glass.
6. How did Hamilton feel when saying “She took me out of a slow fire”?
A. Terrified. B. Annoyed. C. Surprised. D. Grateful.
7. What message does the story convey?
A. Silence is golden. B. Prepare for a rainy day.
C. Opportunity knocks but once. D. Help is a voice, not just a feeling.
C
Although I am 28 years old, the time when I feel profoundly 48 is when I get nostalgic (怀旧的) for days when people were able to go on holiday without being continually contacted, because the price of sending a text message was the same as a glass of wine. WhatsApp has changed that.
Unlike social media and email apps, which can be temporarily deleted, WhatsApp is the dominant method that we use to communicate with our loved ones. It is hard to switch off as a result of the constant flow of information. Deleting the app even while on holiday doesn’t feel like an option, when people use it to convey important information alongside everyday dross. And in any case, the problem isn’t the app itself, of course; it’s the fact that being available 24/7 means we have lost our sense of boundaries in terms of what to communicate and when.
“Just don’t reply. What’s the big deal?” said a friend. Easier said than done! Trying to create those boundaries can make you feel like a terrible person. It’s not just about self-imposed pressure, but the subtext (潜台词) of what not replying says. Previously you could blame your silence on high phone network rates or a poor signal, but now a non-response suggests you don’t care.
I have tried a number of tactics to give myself space while on vacation. I turned off read receipts because being visibly online felt very exposing. Turning off notifications came shortly afterwards. On a trip to Greece, I trialed a voice notes and video notes ban. Recently I’ve even gently talked to friends about not sending me non-urgent messages.
It doesn’t matter whether we are leaving the country or holidaying at home, this precious period of quiet may be the closest thing we have to a break. Although we are getting better at knowing how to prioritize rest, there is still a necessity for us to shape our environment to enable this. We also have to consider the role we play in helping our loved ones to recover and refresh.
8. What does the author actually miss?
A. Traditional ways of communication. B. The price of text messages in the past.
C. Holidays without constant communication. D. Experiences of drinking wine with friends.
9 What is the subtext of not replying now according to the author?
A Too much self-generated pressure. B. The poor mobile signal in the area.
C. A sign of indifference or lack of concern. D. High mobile phone communication costs.
10. What does the underlined word “tactics” in Paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Suggestions. B. Notices. C. Reasons. D. Methods.
11. What does the author try to convey through this text?
A. Be brave enough to say no to unreasonable requests.
B. We should have boundaries when messaging others.
C. It’s necessary for people to obey the social manners.
D. A suitable app makes a great difference to our break.
In recent years, much of my life, as a consumer has shifted to what I like to call background spending. As I’ve subscribed to more apps and streaming platforms, significant sums of my money tend to slip away each month without my ever thinking about it.
Think of it as automated trade. Spending without the trouble of spending. Acquisition without action or thought.
But while this flood of subscriptions was sold to me on the condition that it would make my life more trouble free, there was a certain shock I felt upon discovering how much I was spending without realizing each month ($179.45).
You see, the thing about background spending is that it tends to happen, well, in the background without your full attention. And there lies the point.
“Hand over your credit card details and let us take care of the rest,” these companies promise us. But by agreeing to this trade, we’ve become lazy passive consumers. And this laziness breeds more laziness because most of us can’t be bothered with conducting regular reviews of our subscription spending. We’re too lazy to even notice or cancel!
I know it’s not just me who is suddenly living life as a smooth-brained subscriber. The average consumer spends $273 per month on subscriptions, according to a 2021 study of 2,500 by digital services firm West Monroe. Not a single person surveyed knew what his actual monthly spending was.
It’s understandable why this model is so attractive to businesses. As companies questioned traditional advertising models, subscriptions offered the promise of “selling once and earning forever.” And while subscription services have been around for decades (think Wine of the Month Club), more customers have been willing to sign up thanks to the widespread availability of smartphones and the increasing ease of home delivery.
While these subscriptions promise ease and happiness, not all of us are satisfied. Last year, the Kearney Consumer Institute found 40 percent of consumers believe they have too many subscriptions. Almost half of us also think we pay too much for streaming video-on-demand subscriptions.
12. What can we know about background spending in paragraph 2?
A Its purpose. B. Its feature. C. Its procedure. D. Its requirement.
13. What makes it possible for background spending to happen?
A. Its attractive price. B. Some people’s poor habit.
C. Its secure service. D. Some people’s addiction to it.
14. Why is the subscription model appealing to businesses?
A. It offers good home delivery services.
B. It is like traditional advertising models.
C. It is popular among smartphone producers.
D. It brings repeated profits through a single sale.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards background spending?
A. Supportive. B. Optimistic. C. Critical. D. Unclear.
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。
For me, it started when I picked up Grant Faulkner’s collection of 100-word stories, *Finsver*. Until that moment, I had no idea that a story could even be told in so few words. ___16___ But I soon ran into tricky troubles, which taught me valuable lessons. Here are tips I learned the hard way so you won’t have to hit the same roadblocks on your journey of writing micro novels.
Outline the entire story. Much like writing any long story that may dishearten you, you have the options of building a complete outline of all the events of the story. It helps have an idea of what you want to have happen over the course of that structure. ___17___
Don’t get lost in the details. ___18___ When you write long works, you can find yourself using far more language than you really need to communicate your ideas. When you write micro novels, you have to write only what is necessary. The bottom line is that you have to determine how much you need to give the reader to understand the scene.
___19___ Microfiction can be the twin of prose poetry. Therefore, each word must matter in a micro novel. So you have to be so selective and get comfortable with language. You might even employ poetic devices in your language. At last read your work aloud and feel the rhythms of language fitting comfortably in your mouth.
Start strong and end strong, but don’t leave the middle before. ___20___ Ideally, you still want your readers to start the micro novel and refuse to put it down until they reach the last word. After all, each sentence should carry its own weight as a story.
A. I discovered there were few.
B. Focus on what is most important.
C. Approach each chapter in an exploratory way.
D. After that, I tried my hand at writing micro novels.
E. Pay attention to your language the way a poet would.
F. So you don’t become discouraged with the process and quit it.
G. Make sure you keep your foot on the gas throughout the process.

At that point, the couple saw the partially capsized (倾覆) boat. They called 911 instantly and then ___27___Joseph. They shouted over the wind and waves and asked if he was okay.

第二节(满分25分)
52. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语填写明段。使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I’d loved hip-hop dancing since my childhood, and in high school I took classes that focused on jazz and hip-hop. Dance was my favorite class, and I looked forward to it every day. This year, my senior year, was going to be the best dance class.
On the first day of dance class, however, I heard that the new ballet teacher, Ms. Barton, would be strict. Although nervous — I’d never taken ballet — I was up for the challenge.
We all stood at the barre (扶手杆) as Ms. Barton ran us through basic ballet steps — plié, tendu and dégagé. She was just how I had imagined a ballet teacher would be: excellent posture (姿势) with a strict attitude. During exercises, she demanded, “Grand plié!” Along with my fellow classmates, I began my grand plié, with one hand on the barre and the other extended elegantly to the side, slowly lowering myself. I wanted to give myself a pat on the back. But Ms. Barton gave me a stare.
“What is your name?” she asked.
“Sarah Brunner,” I responded with a smile.
“Class, I would like everyone to watch Miss Sarah do a grand plié,” she motioned for me to continue. All my classmates fixed their eyes on me in complete silence. Instead of praise, she told everyone, “This is an obvious example of what not to do.” A wave of pure embarrassment came over me, my face red and eyes watering.
I spent the rest of the day replaying this awful moment, wondering if I should quit. But my pride wouldn’t allow it. As I lay in bed that night, I knew I was going back. I could do it. I would show Ms. Barton.
I persisted (坚持) day by day, week by week, and I was proud to say that I was still standing by the end of the semester. I felt like Ms. Barton and I had developed an agreeable relationship. To everyone’s surprise — especially Ms. Barton’s — I chose to perform in her closing ballet piece in our final four-day show at our high-school theater.
注意:
(1) 填写词数应为150左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The big day for my performance came.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When I stepped off the stage, Ms. Barton made her way to me smilingly.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
