Composting is the managed, oxygen-requiring biological decomposition of organic materials by microorganisms. Organic (carbon-based) materials include grasses, leaves, yard and tree cuttings, and food waste. The end product is compost, a soil conditioner that can provide nutrients to plants. Microorganisms feed on the materials added to the compost pile during composting. They use carbon and nitrogen (氮) to grow and reproduce, water to digest materials, and oxygen to breathe. Why Is Composting at Home Important? Composting is nature’s way of recycling. We can get a beneficial, value-added soil conditioner and use it to protect the environment. 1. What do we know about composting? A. It takes place without oxygen. B. It needs microorganisms’ involvement. C. It breaks down waste with carbon. D. It starts with a special soil conditioner. 2. What can compost help us do? A. Improve poor soil. B. Prevent flooding. C. Reduce food waste. D. Store carbon in the air. 3. How much carbon material is needed to build a 300 kg compost pile? A. 30 kg. B. 60 kg. C. 90 kg. D. 180 kg. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍家庭堆肥的定义、所需条件和重要性，帮助读者了解堆肥相关的基础常识。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Composting is the managed, oxygen-requiring biological decomposition of organic materials by microorganisms. (堆肥制造是在人为调控下，微生物对有机物质进行的需氧生物降解过程。)”可知，堆肥制造需要微生物的参与。故选B项。 2题详解】 细节理解题。根据图表中的Benefits of Composting部分中的“Enrich Soil Compost enhances soil health and plant growth; it slowly discharges and preserves nutrients in the soil, reducing nutrient runoff and protecting water quality. (改良土壤 堆肥能够改善土壤健康状况、促进植物生长；它会缓慢释放养分并将其保存在土壤中，减少养分流失，从而保护水质。)”可知，堆肥有助于改良贫瘠的土壤。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据图示可知，制作一个300千克的堆肥堆，需要300 kg × 60% = 180 kg碳质材料。由此可知，180千克碳材料符合要求。故选D项。 B I still remember stepping into the computer lab as a fourth-grade boy, eager to play ST Math with my friends. There was something about those math questions — figuring them out together felt less like school assignments and more like a game we all wanted to win. We’d walk around the lab, helping each other,sharing strategies, and celebrating each success. It wasn’t just about getting the right answer; it was more about the joy of addressing problems collectively. ST Math was the launching-off point for my love for math, and I found myself teaching math to my friends in middle school, high school, and even college. Not everyone has the same math “origin story” asI do, but I believe teachers can engage a wide range of students by making math playful and by connecting math with the world outside the classroom. Another vital moment in my math journey came in a high school statistics class, where I discovered an amazing role of math. I remember working on a project where we analyzed clinical trial data. I found it fascinating that looking at clinical trial statistics could help distinguish which medications would be the most effective for millions of people. Years later, I decided to pursue a master’s degree in statistics and ultimately joined MIND as a data analyst. Math became more than a subject. It was a vehicle for comprehending and shaping almost everything around me. I fell in love with math in the moments when I took something theoretical — numbers, formulas (公式), and figures — and translated them into something I could see, feel, and interact with alongside my fellows. I’m firmly convinced that we’d see more students have a passion for math, if more math classes could be like science classes, where students are engaged in experiments and labs and moments of discovery. Those aha moments, when everything clicks, are what make math come alive and give me the enthusiasm for the discipline I love. 4. What did the author think of ST Math? A. It aimed to identify math talents. B. It relied on games to attract players. C. It bridged happiness and academics. D. It facilitated the process of getting answers. 5. What does the clinical trial case show? A. Math values logic more than form. B. Data analysis is the basis for math. C. Medicine connects with math closely. D. Math helps solve practical problems. 6. What did math serve as for the author? A. A tool to sense the real world. B. A guide to shaping minds. C. A means of interacting with partners. D. A subject of using statistics. 7. How can a teacher fuel students’ interest in math according to the author? A. By keeping good discipline. B. By teaching math classes in labs. C. By integrating daily elements. D. By providing exploratory experiments. 【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章通过回忆自己从小学接触ST Math到成为数据分析师的数学学习历程，结合具体案例阐述数学的魅力与教学启示。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“I still remember stepping into the computer lab as a fourth-grade boy, eager to play ST Math with my friends. There was something about those math questions — figuring them out together felt less like school assignments and more like a game we all wanted to win. (我还记得四年级时走进电脑教室的样子，那时我和朋友们都迫不及待想玩ST Math。那些数学题有种特别的魔力——我们一起解题时，感觉那不像是学校作业，更像是一场大家都想赢的游戏。)” 可知，作者认为ST Math把快乐与学业连接起来。故选C项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的句子指出“I found it fascinating that looking at clinical trial statistics could help distinguish which medications would be the most effective for millions of people. (我发现观察临床试验统计数据可以帮助区分哪些药物对数百万人最有效，这很有趣。)”，这体现数学在“解决实际问题”中的作用。故选D项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Math became more than a subject. It was a vehicle for comprehending and shaping almost everything around me. (数学不再是一门学科。它是一种理解和塑造我周围几乎所有事物的工具。)”表明数学是作者感知现实世界的工具。故选A项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“I’m firmly convinced that we’d see more students have a passion for math, if more math classes could be like science classes, where students are engaged in experiments and labs and moments of discovery. (我坚信，如果更多的数学课能像科学课一样，让学生参与实验、实验室和发现的时刻，我们会看到更多的学生对数学充满热情。)”指出教师应提供探索性实验以激发兴趣。故选D项。 C 38 students at the University of Michigan set out on a walk. Half of them wound their way through the forest, while the other half had a walk on the busy streets. A week later, the two groups exchanged routes. Both times, before they set out and when they returned to campus, the students took a test that challenged their attention and working memory, where they were given progressively longer strings of numbers to repeat. Walking through town improved their performance slightly, but walking in nature boosted scores by nearly 20 percent. “You didn’t even need to like or enjoy the nature walk to get these cognitive (认知的) benefits,” said Marc Berman, a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. In his new book, “Nature and the Mind”, Dr. Berman credits the cognitive benefits of nature to “attention restoration theory”, whose basis is that our ability to focus is a limited resource that gets easily used up, and that being in nature is an effective way to restore it. One of the most important things about nature, according to attention restoration researchers, is that it involves a kind of “soft fascination”, meaning it pleases us in a gentle way without being too boring or stimulating. (Think about watching ocean waves roll in and out, or staring at a field of wildflowers.) Urban environments, by contrast, are more strongly appealing and demand our careful concentration in a way that exhausts us. Dr. Berman supposes that one reason nature has this effect on us is its physical properties, particularly its curved lines and shapes. And the curve of a river or rock formation, or the repeating patterns of snow, may be easier for our brains to process than the straight edges of a high-rise. “That might give our brains a rest, and that is why we might see these benefits,” he said. 8. Why is Berman’s book cited in paragraph 2? A. To show reliability of a new theory. B. To highlight students’ affection for nature. C. To explain nature’s effect theoretically. D. To argue limitedness of people’s concentration. 9. What does “soft fascination” emphasize? A. Intense focus on vivid details. B. gentle engagement of attention. C. Adaptation to the environment. D. Complete absence of disturbance. 10. How is the processing of curved shapes different from that of straight edges? A. It brings a worse memory. B. It requires less mental effort. C. It causes more attention stress. D. It involves greater brain activity. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Nature’s role in restoring mind. B. The gains of walking outdoors. C. The ways of training concentration. D. Surroundings’ effect on cognition. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章表明自然对心智具有很好的修复作用，并解释了其中的原理。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“In his new book, “Nature and the Mind”, Dr. Berman credits the cognitive benefits of nature to “attention restoration theory”, whose basis is that our ability to focus is a limited resource that gets easily used up, and that being in nature is an effective way to restore it.(在他的新书《自然与心灵》中，伯曼博士将大自然对认知的益处归功于“注意力恢复理论”，该理论认为我们的专注力是一种有限的资源，很容易耗尽，而身处大自然是恢复这种能力的有效方式。)”可知，伯曼的书在本段被引用是为了从理论上解释自然为何能提升认知。故选C。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段第一句“One of the most important things about nature, according to attention restoration researchers, is that it involves a kind of “soft fascination”, meaning it pleases us in a gentle way without being too boring or stimulating.(据注意力恢复研究者所言，大自然最重要的一点在于它具备一种“温和的吸引力”，即它能以一种温和的方式让我们感到愉悦，既不会太过枯燥，也不会过于刺激。)”可知，soft fascination强调自然以温和方式吸引注意力。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段最后两句“And the curve of a river or rock formation, or the repeating patterns of snow, may be easier for our brains to process than the straight edges of a high-rise. “That might give our brains a rest, and that is why we might see these benefits,” he said.(河流的曲线、岩石的轮廓，或者雪的重复纹理，这些往往比高楼大厦的直角更容易被我们的大脑处理。他说：“这或许能让我们的大脑得到放松，这就是我们能感受到这些好处的原因。”)”可知，曲线比直线边缘更能减少脑力消耗。故选B。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，根据第二段““You didn’t even need to like or enjoy the nature walk to get these cognitive (认知的) benefits,” said Marc Berman, a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. In his new book, “Nature and the Mind”, Dr. Berman credits the cognitive benefits of nature to “attention restoration theory”, whose basis is that our ability to focus is a limited resource that gets easily used up, and that being in nature is an effective way to restore it.(芝加哥大学的心理学教授马克·伯曼表示：“即便您并不喜欢或享受这次自然漫步，也能从中获得这些认知方面的益处。”在新著《自然与心灵》一书中，伯曼博士将自然带来的认知益处归功于“注意力恢复理论”。该理论的基础是：我们的专注力是一种有限的资源，很容易被消耗殆尽，而置身于自然环境中是一种有效的恢复这种能力的方式。)”可知，全文围绕自然对心智的修复作用展开。故选A。 D A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it’s become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there’s another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights? Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve ethical treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B.Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly whenAI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI’s capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand new challenge. Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the detriment to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (补偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans’, legal systems must adapt. Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI — specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort (侵权行为) claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. 12. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry? A To check AI chatbots’ functions. B. To advocate for AI chatbots’ rights. C. To identify AI firms’ challenges. D. To know AI firms’ security measures. 13. What can be the ethical treatment of AI systems? A. Avoiding heavy workload. B. Allowing data collection. C. Upgrading human orders. D. Drafting privacy polices. 14. What does the underlined word “detriment” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Obstacle. B. Key. C. Harm. D. Adaptation. 15. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights? A. AI’s participation in business. B. AI’s potential in the economy. C. AI’s need for legal protection. D. AI’s difficulty of advancement. 【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过探讨AI带来的政策挑战——从安全风险到法律权利争议，结合FTC调查、企业伦理实践及学者观点，分析是否应赋予AI法律权利。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control.(美国联邦贸易委员会 (FTC) 的安全倡导者最近宣布，他们将对七家主要公司发起正式调查，重点关注这些公司的AI聊天机器人是否有足够的安全准备措施，以防范虚假信息传播或不当情绪操控等风险。)”可知，FTC调查的重点是各公司聊天机器人的安全措施。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve ethical treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety.(去年，人工智能公司Anthropic聘请了首位“AI福利”研究员，其任务是研究先进的人工智能系统是否值得获得伦理对待，包括防止因过度工作产生不必要的“压力”以确保其良好运行，或减少有害数据输入以保障整体安全。)”可知，“避免繁重工作量”属于伦理对待。故选A项。 【14题详解】 词句猜测题。划线单词的下文的例子“If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted (如果它像人类一样拥有平衡的情绪，那么痛苦就肯定会被纳入考量。)”，且传统法律关注“financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains (经济损失、身体伤害、情感痛苦)”，均指向“伤害”。所以划线单词detriment的意义为“损害，伤害”，与harm意义一致。detriment所在句意为“将权利赋予AI迫使我们重新思考什么应被视为对AI的‘伤害’”。故选C项。 【15题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans.(Salib在其学术著作中写道，赋予人工智能合同权、财产权和侵权索赔权，将使其能够参与经济体系，甚至可能造福人类)”可知，Salib看重AI在经济体系中的参与潜力，这是Salib倡导赋予人工智能权利的核心原因。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。 For more than a decade, I have taught the same course to both undergraduate and graduate students across diverse majors, including business and nursing. Although my lecture materials, slides, and instructional approaches have remained consistent, last year’s student evaluations reached an all-time high.____16____ So what accounted for this dramatic improvement? The most important adjustment was the introduction of a strict new policy regarding technology use.This rule prohibited laptops and mobile phones for note-taking, with a single exception: devices could be used only if students were writing with a stylus (手写笔). Unsurprisingly, this decision was met with immediate doubt and opposition at the very beginning. ____17____ They were convinced that their digital tools were essential for academic efficiency. However, after a short period of adjustment, nearly all students reported a positive change in their ability to concentrate. To justify this policy, I introduced students to relevant research. One key study demonstrated that students who took notes by hand absorbed approximately 30% more information than those who typed on laptops. ____18____ The mental effort involved in handwriting enhances deeper understanding. Additionally, another study with 520 participants found that students who had their phones on their desks performed 20% worse on tests of focus than those who put them away. ____19____ Further evidence indicates that phones, even when powered off, reduce available cognitive capability and lower the quality of face-to-face interaction. ____20____ I believe universities ought to adopt similar measures to support student achievement. This simple yet effective strategy helps create a more focused and engaging learning environment for everyone. A. This evidence proves the need to boost focus. B. Many K-12 schools have already banned phones. C. They worried about missing notes or urgent messages. D. This shows that phone presence alone impacts students. E. Students claimed they needed devices for notes or reference. F. Handwriting forces thinking, while typing is usually mindless. G. Positive comments about focus and course quality were frequent. 【答案】16. G 17. E 18. F 19. D 20. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章以作者多年教授不同专业学生同一门课程的经历为背景，讲述了作者通过推行课堂技术使用新规，大幅提升学生课程评价的故事，并结合相关研究论证了该政策的合理性与有效性。 【16题详解】 上文“For more than a decade, I have taught the same course to both undergraduate and graduate students across diverse majors, including business and nursing. Although my lecture materials, slides, and instructional approaches have remained consistent, last year’s student evaluations reached an all-time high. (十多年来，我一直为不同专业的本科生和研究生教授同一门课程，包括商科和护理学。尽管我的讲义材料、幻灯片和教学方法都保持不变，但去年的学生评价却达到了历史最高水平)”点明课程教学情况和学生评价的显著提升，下文“So what accounted for this dramatic improvement? (那么，是什么原因导致了这次显著的提升呢？)”提出疑问，探寻评价提升的缘由。G项“关于专注力和课程质量的正面评价屡见不鲜”承上启下，具体阐释了“学生评价达到历史最高水平”的表现，同时通过与下文的疑问衔接，自然引出对提升原因的探究，符合语境。故选G。 【17题详解】 上文“The most important adjustment was the introduction of a strict new policy regarding technology use.This rule prohibited laptops and mobile phones for note-taking, with a single exception: devices could be used only if students were writing with a stylus (手写笔). Unsurprisingly, this decision was met with immediate doubt and opposition at the very beginning. (最重要的调整是出台了一项严格的课堂技术使用新规。该规定禁止使用笔记本电脑和手机记笔记，只有一个例外：学生使用手写笔书写时可以使用电子设备。不出所料，这项决定从一开始就遭到了学生的质疑和反对)”介绍了技术使用新规及学生的初始反应，下文“They were convinced that their digital tools were essential for academic efficiency. (他们认为自己的电子工具对于提高学习效率至关重要)”进一步明确学生反对的核心逻辑——电子工具对学习效率的必要性。E项“学生们声称他们需要电子设备来记笔记或查阅资料”承上启下，直接呼应上文“禁止使用电脑和手机记笔记”的新规，点明学生反对的直接理由，且与下文“电子工具对学习效率至关重要”形成逻辑递进（先说明需要设备的具体用途，再强调其对效率的必要性），精准衔接学生反对新规的完整逻辑链。故选E。 【18题详解】 上文“To justify this policy, I introduced students to relevant research. One key study demonstrated that students who took notes by hand absorbed approximately 30% more information than those who typed on laptops. (为了证明这项政策的合理性，我向学生介绍了相关研究。一项核心研究表明，手写笔记的学生比用笔记本电脑打字的学生多吸收约30%的信息)”呈现了手写笔记更有效的研究结论，下文“The mental effort involved in handwriting enhances deeper understanding. (手写所投入的脑力活动有助于加深理解)”解释了手写笔记效果更好的原因。F项“手写迫使人们主动思考，而打字通常是无意识的机械行为”承上启下，承接上文的研究结论，同时为下文的原因解释做铺垫，具体说明手写和打字在认知层面的差异，符合段落逻辑。故选F。 【19题详解】 上文“Additionally, another study with 520 participants found that students who had their phones on their desks performed 20% worse on tests of focus than those who put them away. (此外，另一项有520名参与者的研究发现，手机放在桌上的学生在专注力测试中的表现比把手机收起来的学生差20%)”介绍了手机摆放位置影响专注力的研究结果。D项“这表明仅仅是手机出现在视野范围内就会对学生产生影响”承接上文，“这”指代上文的研究结果，总结提炼出手机存在本身就会干扰学生的结论，同时呼应段落核心论点，逻辑通顺。故选D。 【20题详解】 上文“Further evidence indicates that phones, even when powered off, reduce available cognitive capability and lower the quality of face-to-face interaction. (进一步的证据表明，即使手机处于关机状态，也会降低人的可用认知能力，还会影响面对面交流的质量)”补充了手机对认知和交流的负面影响，下文“I believe universities ought to adopt similar measures to support student achievement. (我认为大学应该采取类似的措施来助力学生取得更好的学业成绩)”提出大学应推行相关措施的建议。B项“许多中小学已经禁止学生在校使用手机了”承上启下，通过列举中小学的相关举措，为下文大学采取类似措施的建议提供参考和依据，增强了建议的可行性，贴合语境。故选B。 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Alex is an ordinary high school student in a busy city, who has an extraordinary dream — to become an astronaut.

Noted##Notable 44. what 45. links 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了德国的巴姆贝格和中国的歙县是如何保护文化遗产的。 【36题详解】 考查介词。句意：他们响应了 2025 年世界遗产日的号召，致力于保护那些受到灾害和冲突威胁的遗产，并将保护工作融入日常生活之中。根据空格后的threat可知，此处用固定短语under threat表示“受到威胁”。故填under。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：同上。分析句式结构可知，此处用非谓语动词作状语，又因为integrate和主语之间是主动关系，所以用提示词的现在分词形式作状语。故填integrating。 【38题详解】 考查副词。句意：中国拥有 60 处联合国教科文组织世界遗产地，目前在世界范围内位居榜首，与意大利并列第一。分析句式结构可知，此处用提示词的副词形式currently作状语修饰动词ranks。故填currently。 【39题详解】 考查冠词。句意：巴姆贝格是德国南部巴伐利亚州一处著名的联合国教科文组织世界遗产地。自 20 世纪 50 年代开始的持续修复工作以来，该地依然保持着其最初的建筑风格。根据下文site可知，此处表泛指一处遗产地，且well-known是辅音音素开头，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【40题详解】 考查名词。句意：同上。根据上文形容词steady可知，形容词修饰名词，所以此处用提示词的名词形式restoration作介词after的宾语。故填restoration。 【41题详解】 考查动词不定式。句意：该城镇正努力推广其拥有数百年历史的熏制啤酒，旨在将保护工作与当地的手工制作工艺相结合。根据空格前的efforts可知，此处用提示词的动词不定式形式构成固定短语makes efforts to do sth表示“努力做某事”。故填to market。 【42题详解】 考查被动语态。句意：歙县位于中国东部的安徽省，始建于秦朝。因为construct和主语之间是被动关系，此处用被动语态，再根据in the QinDynasty，可知本句时态为一般过去时且主语是单数，所以be动词用was。故填was constructed。 【43题详解】 考查形容词。句意：以其徽派风格的马头墙而闻名，它遵循着修复与重生的路径前行。分析句式结构可知，此处用提示词的形容词形式Noted/Notable作状语，表示状态，且位于句首的单词首字母要大写。故填Noted/Notable。 【44题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：“我们已经成功修复了一些拥有超过100年历史的建筑，从而使这个县恢复到了往昔的模样。”歙县文物保护中心的副主任说道。根据介词to可知，此处是宾语从句，且从句中缺少宾语，所以用连接代词what来引导宾语从句。故填what。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：歙县希望与巴姆贝格建立更紧密的联系，后者已举办了一届世界遗产节，旨在与全球各地交流理念。通过这种合作，歙县希望能提升自身的专业水平。分析句式结构可知，此处用提示词的名词形式作宾语，此处link是可数名词，所以用名词复数形式。故填links。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，外教John计划丰富课堂上的活动形式以让课堂更有趣，现公开征集优化建议。请给 John 写一封邮件，内容包括： (1)你的建议； (2)陈述理由。 注意： (1)写作词数应为80个左右； (2)请按如下格式作答。 Dear John, I’m delighted to learn that you are seeking suggestions to make our classes more interesting. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】例文 Dear John, I’m delighted to learn that you are seeking suggestions to make our classes more interesting.

This would be their first stay at our mountain house, but our old mattress (床垫) was worn and a new one couldn’t wait. The forecast had promised heavy rain all weekend, and sure enough it had been pouring until that morning. My parents arrived early in the morning. By then, my husband was away on business. Though strong winds were still predicted for the afternoon, after settling them in, I decided to drive to the second-hand market in town to find a replacement mattress. I found a king-size steal — only $50. Two employees carried the mattress out and placed it onto the roof of my car. It hung forward over the window of my tiny car by about two feet. All I needed to do was get it home. All seemed to be going well — until the wind showed its force. With each mile up the mountain, the wind grew wilder, rocking my car back and forth. The mattress felt heavier, pulling at the ropes as if it was trying to break free. The road was too narrow to turn around. I had to keep going. As I rounded the last turn, I was met head-on by the worst rush of wind. My car too light, the mattress too heavy and the wind too strong, I lost control and crashed into a telephone pole. I tried to start the engine. Nothing. Trapped in the damaged car with my phone running out of battery and darkness falling, I felt a wave of panic wash over me. Minutes later, a truck approached. I breathed a sigh of relief. But when I saw a huge man get out of the truck and heard a deep, heavily accented voice, that relief disappeared. “Looks like you’ve got yourself in a spot of trouble, ma’am,” he said. Then he reached into his bag and pulled out a knife. My heart missed a beat. This was it. The crash hadn’t killed me, but now this strange man would. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式作答。 I was so scared that my hands began shaking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Soon, the huge man drove me and my mattress to my doorstep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I was so scared that my hands began shaking. But the attack didn’t happen. With rapid movements, he cut through the ropes holding down the mattress, lifted it onto his shoulder and loaded it onto his truck. I stared at him in shock, with my hands still trembling from the earlier fear. He noticed my unease, paused, and said softly, “I just want to help you get home safely.” Then he walked to the driver’s seat, opened the door, and helped me out. The storm continued, but my panic dissolved as I slid into the truck beside him. Soon, the huge man drove me and my mattress to my doorstep. Before the truck stopped, I saw my parents rushing toward us, their faces filled with worry. As we got off, my mom hurried over to hold my hand, while my dad helped with the mattress. After the mattress was positioned, I expressed my gratitude to the man and offered to give him some money. But he refused, waving at us and leaving. Watching the truck disappear into the night, I realized how quick I’d been to judge a stranger by his appearance and that kindness often comes in unexpected packages. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者冒着暴风雨去给到访的父母买床垫，回家的路上不幸撞车，一名路过的大个男人的接近让作者非常害怕，但是他救了作者并把她平安送回家，这让作者明白了以貌取人是不对的。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我吓得浑身发抖，双手也开始颤抖起来。”可知，第一段可描写这个男人把作者从车里救了出来。 ②由第二段首句内容“很快，那个高大的男人就把我和我的床垫送到了我家门口。”可知，第二段可描写作者被平安送到家后，意识到自己以貌取人是不对的。 2.续写线索：采取措施——安抚——解救——到家——感谢——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.发生：happen/take place/occur ②.意识到：realize/be aware ③.继续：continue/go on 情绪类 ①.感谢：express my gratitude/show my appreciation/be grateful ②.震惊：shock/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1] I stared at him in shock, with my hands still trembling from the earlier fear.

Composting is the managed, oxygen-requiring biological decomposition of organic materials by microorganisms. Organic (carbon-based) materials include grasses, leaves, yard and tree cuttings, and food waste. The end product is compost, a soil conditioner that can provide nutrients to plants. Microorganisms feed on the materials added to the compost pile during composting. They use carbon and nitrogen (氮) to grow and reproduce, water to digest materials, and oxygen to breathe. Why Is Composting at Home Important? Composting is nature’s way of recycling. We can get a beneficial, value-added soil conditioner and use it to protect the environment. 1. What do we know about composting? A It takes place without oxygen. B. It needs microorganisms’ involvement. C. It breaks down waste with carbon. D. It starts with a special soil conditioner. 2. What can compost help us do? A. Improve poor soil. B. Prevent flooding. C. Reduce food waste. D. Store carbon in the air. 3. How much carbon material is needed to build a 300 kg compost pile? A. 30 kg. B. 60 kg. C. 90 kg. D. 180 kg. B I still remember stepping into the computer lab as a fourth-grade boy, eager to play ST Math with my friends. There was something about those math questions — figuring them out together felt less like school assignments and more like a game we all wanted to win. We’d walk around the lab, helping each other,sharing strategies, and celebrating each success. It wasn’t just about getting the right answer; it was more about the joy of addressing problems collectively. ST Math was the launching-off point for my love for math, and I found myself teaching math to my friends in middle school, high school, and even college. Not everyone has the same math “origin story” asI do, but I believe teachers can engage a wide range of students by making math playful and by connecting math with the world outside the classroom. Another vital moment in my math journey came in a high school statistics class, where I discovered an amazing role of math. I remember working on a project where we analyzed clinical trial data. I found it fascinating that looking at clinical trial statistics could help distinguish which medications would be the most effective for millions of people. Years later, I decided to pursue a master’s degree in statistics and ultimately joined MIND as a data analyst. Math became more than a subject. It was a vehicle for comprehending and shaping almost everything around me. I fell in love with math in the moments when I took something theoretical — numbers, formulas (公式), and figures — and translated them into something I could see, feel, and interact with alongside my fellows. I’m firmly convinced that we’d see more students have a passion for math, if more math classes could be like science classes, where students are engaged in experiments and labs and moments of discovery. Those aha moments, when everything clicks, are what make math come alive and give me the enthusiasm for the discipline I love. 4. What did the author think of ST Math? A. It aimed to identify math talents. B. It relied on games to attract players. C. It bridged happiness and academics. D. It facilitated the process of getting answers. 5. What does the clinical trial case show? A. Math values logic more than form. B. Data analysis is the basis for math. C. Medicine connects with math closely. D. Math helps solve practical problems. 6. What did math serve as for the author? A. A tool to sense the real world. B. A guide to shaping minds. C. A means of interacting with partners. D. A subject of using statistics. 7. How can a teacher fuel students’ interest in math according to the author? A. By keeping good discipline. B. By teaching math classes in labs. C. By integrating daily elements. D. By providing exploratory experiments. C 38 students at the University of Michigan set out on a walk. Half of them wound their way through the forest, while the other half had a walk on the busy streets. A week later, the two groups exchanged routes. Both times, before they set out and when they returned to campus, the students took a test that challenged their attention and working memory, where they were given progressively longer strings of numbers to repeat. Walking through town improved their performance slightly, but walking in nature boosted scores by nearly 20 percent. “You didn’t even need to like or enjoy the nature walk to get these cognitive (认知的) benefits,” said Marc Berman, a professor of psychology at the University of Chicago. In his new book, “Nature and the Mind”, Dr. Berman credits the cognitive benefits of nature to “attention restoration theory”, whose basis is that our ability to focus is a limited resource that gets easily used up, and that being in nature is an effective way to restore it. One of the most important things about nature, according to attention restoration researchers, is that it involves a kind of “soft fascination”, meaning it pleases us in a gentle way without being too boring or stimulating. (Think about watching ocean waves roll in and out, or staring at a field of wildflowers.) Urban environments, by contrast, are more strongly appealing and demand our careful concentration in a way that exhausts us. Dr. Berman supposes that one reason nature has this effect on us is its physical properties, particularly its curved lines and shapes. And the curve of a river or rock formation, or the repeating patterns of snow, may be easier for our brains to process than the straight edges of a high-rise. “That might give our brains a rest, and that is why we might see these benefits,” he said. 8 Why is Berman’s book cited in paragraph 2? A. To show reliability of a new theory. B. To highlight students’ affection for nature. C. To explain nature’s effect theoretically. D. To argue limitedness of people’s concentration. 9. What does “soft fascination” emphasize? A. Intense focus on vivid details. B. gentle engagement of attention. C. Adaptation to the environment. D. Complete absence of disturbance. 10. How is the processing of curved shapes different from that of straight edges? A. It brings a worse memory. B. It requires less mental effort. C. It causes more attention stress. D. It involves greater brain activity. 11. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Nature’s role in restoring mind. B. The gains of walking outdoors. C. The ways of training concentration. D. Surroundings’ effect on cognition. D A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it’s become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it’s launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there’s another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights? Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AI systems might deserve ethical treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B.Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly whenAI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI’s capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand new challenge. Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the detriment to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (补偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans’, legal systems must adapt. Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI — specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort (侵权行为) claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. 12. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry? A. To check AI chatbots’ functions. B. To advocate for AI chatbots’ rights. C To identify AI firms’ challenges. D. To know AI firms’ security measures. 13. What can be the ethical treatment of AI systems? A. Avoiding heavy workload. B. Allowing data collection. C. Upgrading human orders. D. Drafting privacy polices. 14. What does the underlined word “detriment” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Obstacle. B. Key. C. Harm. D. Adaptation. 15. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights? A. AI’s participation in business. B. AI’s potential in the economy. C. AI’s need for legal protection. D. AI’s difficulty of advancement. 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 more than a decade, I have taught the same course to both undergraduate and graduate students across diverse majors, including business and nursing. Although my lecture materials, slides, and instructional approaches have remained consistent, last year’s student evaluations reached an all-time high.____16____ So what accounted for this dramatic improvement? The most important adjustment was the introduction of a strict new policy regarding technology use.This rule prohibited laptops and mobile phones for note-taking, with a single exception: devices could be used only if students were writing with a stylus (手写笔). Unsurprisingly, this decision was met with immediate doubt and opposition at the very beginning. ____17____ They were convinced that their digital tools were essential for academic efficiency.

This would be their first stay at our mountain house, but our old mattress (床垫) was worn and a new one couldn’t wait. The forecast had promised heavy rain all weekend, and sure enough it had been pouring until that morning. My parents arrived early in the morning. By then, my husband was away on business. Though strong winds were still predicted for the afternoon, after settling them in, I decided to drive to the second-hand market in town to find a replacement mattress. I found a king-size steal — only $50. Two employees carried the mattress out and placed it onto the roof of my car. It hung forward over the window of my tiny car by about two feet. All I needed to do was get it home. All seemed to be going well — until the wind showed its force. With each mile up the mountain, the wind grew wilder, rocking my car back and forth. The mattress felt heavier, pulling at the ropes as if it was trying to break free. The road was too narrow to turn around. I had to keep going. As I rounded the last turn, I was met head-on by the worst rush of wind. My car too light, the mattress too heavy and the wind too strong, I lost control and crashed into a telephone pole. I tried to start the engine. Nothing. Trapped in the damaged car with my phone running out of battery and darkness falling, I felt a wave of panic wash over me. Minutes later, a truck approached. I breathed a sigh of relief. But when I saw a huge man get out of the truck and heard a deep, heavily accented voice, that relief disappeared. “Looks like you’ve got yourself in a spot of trouble, ma’am,” he said. Then he reached into his bag and pulled out a knife. My heart missed a beat. This was it. The crash hadn’t killed me, but now this strange man would. 注意： (1)续写词数应为150个左右； (2)请按如下格式作答。 I was so scared that my hands began shaking. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Soon, the huge man drove me and my mattress to my doorstep. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
