B In 2020, when she was just 16 years old, Tarini founded Nai Subah Foundation, a non-government organization (NGO) in Delhi. So far, she has helped many neurodivergent (神经多样性) people. She was recently awarded the famous Diana Award for her efforts. Currently studying in school, Tarini, says she was always encouraged to work for others’ well-being by her parents. A vital moment in her life came when she volunteered to raise funds for school children with disabilities a couple of years ago. During the fundraising process, she got a chance to interact with the school students with autism or ADHD. She learned there were no platforms for them; she found out they were talented. But our society focuses so much on what is wrong that many forget to glance at the positive aspects. Most people consider neurodivergent people to be a burden. This restricts their opportunities. Tarini felt it was the right time for her to start her own foundation to help them. “In October 2020, I started Nai Subah Foundation and decided to focus on the well-being of the neurodivergent,” she says. The foundation works for the neurodivergent in various ways, Tarini explains, “We help them get jobs in some companies. We also contact workshops so that they get admitted into the space easily, and we work in cooperation with 50 companies. Following the discovery of the excellent artistic talents of neurodivergent people, we help them find a platform by conducting exhibitions, both online and offline.” In this way, neurodivergent people get a chance to promote their work and get recognition. The foundation has held some exhibitions so far and raised 100,000 rupees for them by showcasing their artworks. Tarini says the neurodivergent community is quite close-knit (关系紧密的) and always in touch. Most times, people hear about the foundation and show up for help. If they are not approached, the foundation also has tie-ins with six other NGOs that help reach the remotest person who may need help. Tarini contributes whatever she can, and helps support dreams and spread hope among those neurodivergent people. 41. What was the direct reason for Tarini’s starting Nai Subah Foundation? A. One of her volunteer activities. B. Encouragement from her parents. C. Special education from her school. D. Her experience of being treated unfairly. 42. What do most people think of neurodivergent people? A. They deserve greater sympathy. B. They serve as shining examples. C. They pose a challenge to society. D. They demonstrate artistic talents. 43. How does the foundation help neurodivergent people? A. By consulting with experts. B. By reaching their natural potential. C. By investing in extensive research. D. By educating the public on neurodiversity. 44. Why did Tarini’s foundation work with six other NGOs? A. To raise more funds. B. To expand its influence. C. To seek more professional help. D. To ensure its availability to possible members. 45. What’s the text mainly about? A. A girl’s contribution to neurodivergent people. B. The presentation of the Diana Award. C. Tarini’s extraordinary life at school. D. The dreams of neurodivergent people C What makes babies laugh? It sounds like one of the most fun questions a researcher could investigate, but there’s a serious scientific reason why Caspar Addyman wants to find out. He’s not the first to ask this question. The great psychologist(心理学家) of human development, Jean Piaget, thought that babies laughter could be used to see into their minds. Studying when babies laugh might therefore be a great way of gaining insight into how they understand the world, he reasoned. But although he suggested this in the 1940s, this idea remains to be properly tested. Despite the fact that some very famous investigators have studied the topic, it hasn’t been given enough attention by modern psychology. Addyman, of Birkbeck, University of London, is out to change that. He believes we can use laughter to get at exactly how babies understand the world. He’s completed the world’s largest and most comprehensive survey of what makes babies laugh, presenting his initial results at the International Conference on Infant Studies, Berlin, last year. Via his website he surveyed more than 1,000 parents from around the world, asking them questions about when, where and why their babies laugh. The results are heart-warming. A baby’s first smile comes at about six weeks, their first laugh at about three and a half months. Peekaboo(躲猫猫) is a sure-fire favourite for making babies laugh, but tickling(挠痒痒) is the single most reported reason why babies laugh. Importantly, from the very first chuckle(低声轻笑), the survey responses show that babies are laughing with other people, and at what they do. The mere physical sensation of something being ticklish isn’t enough. Nor is it enough to see something disappear or appear suddenly. It’s only funny when an adult makes these things happen for the baby. This shows that way before babies walk, or talk, they – and their laughter – are social. If you tickle a baby they apparently laugh because you are tickling them, not just because they are tickled. What’s more, babies don’t tend to laugh at people falling over. They are far more likely to laugh when they fall over, rather than someone else, or when other people are happy, rather than when they are sad or unpleasantly surprised. Although parents report that boy babies laugh slightly more than girl babies, both genders (性别) find mummy and daddy equally funny. In spite of the scientific potential, baby laughter is “strangely ignored”, according to Addyman. Part of the reason is the difficulty of making babies laugh reliably in the lab, although he plans to deal with this in the next stage of the project. But partly the topic has been ignored, he says, because it isn’t viewed as a subject for “proper” science to look into. This is a prejudice Addyman hopes to overturn – for him, the study of laughter is certainly no joke. 46. The psychologist Jean Piaget held the belief that ________. A. even a good joke could not be got across to babies B his theory about laughter would be proved in the end C. studying babies’ laughter helped to know how they understand the world D. babies’ laughter could be used to find out whether their brains functioned well 47. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A. the present situation of Birkbeck B. the study conducted by Jean Padget C. thinking little of modern psychology D. ignoring the research into babies’ laughter 48. The result of the survey undertaken by Addyman show that ________. A. babies are likely to laugh at people falling over B. babies are very fond of being tickled C. babies’ first laugh comes at six weeks D. babies and their laughter are social in a way 49. From the last paragraph, it can be concluded that for Addyman, __________. A. babies’ laughter is well worth studying B. nobody should play jokes on babies C. babies’ laughter is not a real science subject D. scientists can get reliable information only in the lab 50. Which best describe the writer’s attitude to the study of babies’ laughter? A. Admiring B. Fact-based C. Doubtful D. One-sided D In the U.S., yellow means slow down, get ready to stop. But in Denmark, yellow gives you a signal before stopping and going. The idea that you’re given a moment to get ready to move, not just to hit the brakes, stuck with us. Once we were back home, we started to notice how rarely we allow that in daily life. We prepare for endings constantly. We think through worst-case scenarios. We rehearse (排练) the breakup speech, the layoff call, and the backup plan. Yet, we rarely give ourselves space to prepare for beginnings. We do not practice coming back after burnout. We do not rehearse for the moment the proverbial light turns green, and we need to remember how to move forward again. Most of us know how to handle disappointment because we have been trained to plan for it. We buy insurance policies to protect ourselves from loss. We hold backup plans in our heads, always ready with a plan B or C if things fall apart. However, we do not always know how to prepare for the moments when things go well. We are often caught off guard when the new job comes through, when the project is finally finished, or when the idea we have been carrying quietly suddenly takes off. What we do not practice nearly as often is preparing for joy. The gap between preparing to stop and preparing to go reminds us of something in psychology called psychological flexibility. It’s really about the ability to shift and bend when life doesn’t go the way you thought it would. It’s noticing when the plan you had in your head no longer works and being willing to shift rather than cling to the map you drew months, or even minutes, ago. Accept that beginnings feel clumsy. For example, the first day in a new job rarely feels smooth. You are trying to remember names, find the coffee machine, and pretend you’re not lost on your way back from the bathroom. The first draft of anything worth writing usually looks like something you’d rather hide in a drawer. It’s what standing in the yellow light feels like, knowing the move is coming, feeling a little awkward, and still not sure if your foot is on the gas yet. However, life is not just about red lights that stop us or green lights that tell us to go, but the yellow in between matters too. It’s the space that lets us catch our breath, look around, and ready ourselves for whatever comes next. 51. What function does Paragraph 1 serve in the passage? A. To introduce the topic from a cultural difference. B. To present a research finding on traffic lights. C. To compare traffic rules in various countries. D. To warn readers of potential traffic problems. 52. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. Breakups and layoffs are common in life. B. People spend too much time on backup plans. C. People lack preparation for new starts in life. D. Burnout often stops people from moving forward. 53. What is psychological flexibility? A. The ability to stick to original plans firmly. B. The ability to adjust when life goes off track. C. The ability to predict worst-case scenarios. D. The ability to handle disappointment well. 54. What reading strategy may help understand the metaphor of “yellow light” in the passage? A. Analyzing the author’s tone and writing purpose. B. Identifying key words in each paragraph. C. Comparing different cultural backgrounds. D. Connecting the literal meaning to the symbolic one. 55. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Value of Psychological Flexibility. B. Life’s “Yellow Light”: Space to Prepare. C. Different Meanings of the Traffic Lights. D. Prepare for Both Endings and Beginnings. 四、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。 My mother put the golden butterfly pendant (吊坠) on my neck. In her eyes, I saw pride for the first woman of our family to achieve a university education. My grandmother loved to tell us stories of her first years at primary school on the small island of Chios, Greece: her beautiful handwriting, much praised by her teachers and her good marks. All this changed in Grade 4 when one day my grandmother’s nose started to bleed as she was doing her homework. It scared my great-grandmother, because in those years, many were dying from tuberculosis (结核病). Spending hours indoors studying was associated with growing weak and pale, a sign of that terrible disease. The family prohibited Grandma from finishing primary school and sent her to a local factory. My mother was able to finish high school on Chios. She was an excellent student and her parents encouraged her to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher. Unfortunately, the Second World War clipped her wings. She ended up marrying and looking after her family’s businesses. As I grew up, my mother always urged me to get the university education that she was denied. Sometimes I remember wanting to help her out with cooking or baking. “No,” my mother would say. “Go back to your homework! That takes priority!” My father, following the Greek tradition, would tell her: “Teach Sophia to cook! What is she going to feed her family?” I also remember relatives telling my parents to hurry and arrange a marriage for me as soon as I finished high school. “There is time for all that! Later on! First, she will get a degree!” my mother always hurried to reply. On my university graduation, my mother presented me with my grandma’s special pendant. “But this is the pendant Grandma used to say she would only give me on my engagement day!” I reminded my mother. “A degree is better than an engagement ring; that’s what I told Grandma and she agreed,” my mother replied. 56. What made the mother proud? (no more than 15 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 57 How was Grandma’s performance during the primary school? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined part “clipped her wings” in paragraph 3 mean? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 59. What does paragraph 4 mainly show about the mother? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What do you think of the author’s mother? Please explain.

So far, she has helped many neurodivergent (神经多样性) people. She was recently awarded the famous Diana Award for her efforts. Currently studying in school, Tarini, says she was always encouraged to work for others’ well-being by her parents. A vital moment in her life came when she volunteered to raise funds for school children with disabilities a couple of years ago. During the fundraising process, she got a chance to interact with the school students with autism or ADHD. She learned there were no platforms for them; she found out they were talented. But our society focuses so much on what is wrong that many forget to glance at the positive aspects. Most people consider neurodivergent people to be a burden. This restricts their opportunities. Tarini felt it was the right time for her to start her own foundation to help them. “In October 2020, I started Nai Subah Foundation and decided to focus on the well-being of the neurodivergent,” she says. The foundation works for the neurodivergent in various ways, Tarini explains, “We help them get jobs in some companies. We also contact workshops so that they get admitted into the space easily, and we work in cooperation with 50 companies. Following the discovery of the excellent artistic talents of neurodivergent people, we help them find a platform by conducting exhibitions, both online and offline.” In this way, neurodivergent people get a chance to promote their work and get recognition. The foundation has held some exhibitions so far and raised 100,000 rupees for them by showcasing their artworks. Tarini says the neurodivergent community is quite close-knit (关系紧密的) and always in touch. Most times, people hear about the foundation and show up for help. If they are not approached, the foundation also has tie-ins with six other NGOs that help reach the remotest person who may need help. Tarini contributes whatever she can, and helps support dreams and spread hope among those neurodivergent people. 41. What was the direct reason for Tarini’s starting Nai Subah Foundation? A. One of her volunteer activities. B. Encouragement from her parents. C. Special education from her school. D. Her experience of being treated unfairly. 42. What do most people think of neurodivergent people? A. They deserve greater sympathy. B. They serve as shining examples. C. They pose a challenge to society. D. They demonstrate artistic talents. 43. How does the foundation help neurodivergent people? A. By consulting with experts. B. By reaching their natural potential. C. By investing in extensive research. D. By educating the public on neurodiversity. 44. Why did Tarini’s foundation work with six other NGOs? A. To raise more funds. B. To expand its influence. C. To seek more professional help. D. To ensure its availability to possible members. 45. What’s the text mainly about? A. A girl’s contribution to neurodivergent people. B. The presentation of the Diana Award. C.

But our society focuses so much on what is wrong that many forget to glance at the positive aspects. Most people consider neurodivergent people to be a burden. This restricts their opportunities. Tarini felt it was the right time for her to start her own foundation to help them.(几年前，她自愿为残疾学生筹集资金，这是她生命中的一个重要时刻。在筹款过程中，她有机会与患有自闭症或多动症的学生互动。她了解到没有为他们搭建的平台；她发现他们很有才华。但我们的社会过于关注错误的地方，以至于很多人忘记了看看积极的方面。大多数人认为神经多样性的人是一种负担。这限制了他们的机会。Tarini觉得现在是她成立自己的基金会来帮助他们的时候了)”可知，Tarini创办基金会的直接原因是一次为残疾学童筹款的志愿活动——这次活动让她发现了神经多样性人群的困境与潜力。故选A。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Most people consider neurodivergent people to be a burden.(大多数人认为神经多样性的人是一种负担)”可知，大多数人认为神经多样性的人对社会是一种负担，即认为他们给社会带来了挑战。故选C。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The foundation works for the neurodivergent in various ways Tarini explains, “We help them get jobs in some companies.

She was recently awarded the famous Diana Award for her efforts.(2020年，年仅16岁的Tarini在德里创立了非政府组织Nai Subah Foundation。到目前为止，她已经帮助了许多神经多样性的人。她最近因自己的努力获得了著名的戴安娜奖)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了Tarini对神经多样性人群所做的贡献。故选A。 C What makes babies laugh? It sounds like one of the most fun questions a researcher could investigate, but there’s a serious scientific reason why Caspar Addyman wants to find out. He’s not the first to ask this question. The great psychologist(心理学家) of human development, Jean Piaget, thought that babies laughter could be used to see into their minds. Studying when babies laugh might therefore be a great way of gaining insight into how they understand the world, he reasoned. But although he suggested this in the 1940s, this idea remains to be properly tested. Despite the fact that some very famous investigators have studied the topic, it hasn’t been given enough attention by modern psychology. Addyman, of Birkbeck, University of London, is out to change that. He believes we can use laughter to get at exactly how babies understand the world. He’s completed the world’s largest and most comprehensive survey of what makes babies laugh, presenting his initial results at the International Conference on Infant Studies, Berlin, last year. Via his website he surveyed more than 1,000 parents from around the world, asking them questions about when, where and why their babies laugh. The results are heart-warming. A baby’s first smile comes at about six weeks their first laugh at about three and a half months. Peekaboo(躲猫猫) is a sure-fire favourite for making babies laugh, but tickling(挠痒痒) is the single most reported reason why babies laugh. Importantly, from the very first chuckle(低声轻笑), the survey responses show that babies are laughing with other people, and at what they do. The mere physical sensation of something being ticklish isn’t enough. Nor is it enough to see something disappear or appear suddenly. It’s only funny when an adult makes these things happen for the baby. This shows that way before babies walk, or talk, they – and their laughter – are social. If you tickle a baby they apparently laugh because you are tickling them, not just because they are tickled. What’s more, babies don’t tend to laugh at people falling over. They are far more likely to laugh when they fall over, rather than someone else, or when other people are happy, rather than when they are sad or unpleasantly surprised. Although parents report that boy babies laugh slightly more than girl babies, both genders (性别) find mummy and daddy equally funny. In spite of the scientific potential, baby laughter is “strangely ignored”, according to Addyman. Part of the reason is the difficulty of making babies laugh reliably in the lab, although he plans to deal with this in the next stage of the project. But partly the topic has been ignored, he says, because it isn’t viewed as a subject for “proper” science to look into. This is a prejudice Addyman hopes to overturn – for him, the study of laughter is certainly no joke. 46. The psychologist Jean Piaget held the belief that ________. A. even a good joke could not be got across to babies B. his theory about laughter would be proved in the end C. studying babies’ laughter helped to know how they understand the world D. babies’ laughter could be used to find out whether their brains functioned well 47. The underlined word “that” in Paragraph 3 refers to ________. A. the present situation of Birkbeck B. the study conducted by Jean Padget C. thinking little of modern psychology D. ignoring the research into babies’ laughter 48. The result of the survey undertaken by Addyman show that ________. A. babies are likely to laugh at people falling over B. babies are very fond of being tickled C. babies’ first laugh comes at six weeks D. babies and their laughter are social in a way 49. From the last paragraph, it can be concluded that for Addyman, __________. A. babies’ laughter is well worth studying B. nobody should play jokes on babies C. babies’ laughter is not a real science subject D. scientists can get reliable information only in the lab 50. Which best describe the writer’s attitude to the study of babies’ laughter? A. Admiring B. Fact-based C. Doubtful D. One-sided 【答案】46. C 47. D 48. D 49. A 50. B 【解析】 【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了对于“婴儿为什么会笑”这一受到忽视的课题，科学家Addyman进行了研究，发现婴儿的笑，是带有一定社会性的行为，并且最后强调对于这一现象的研究是值得的。 【46题详解】 本题属于细节理解题。根据关键词Jean Piaget，hold the belief定位文章第二段第2句: The great psychologist(心理学家) of human development, Jean Piaget, thought that babies laughter could be used to see into their minds.( 伟大的人类发展心理学家皮亚杰认为婴儿笑声可以看到他们的想法。)故选C项。 【47题详解】 本题属于词义猜测题之代词指代题。根据题干定位到文章第三段段首句: Addyman, of Birkbeck, University of London, is out to change that.可知指示代词that所指应是前文内容，即第二段末尾句: Despite the fact that some very famous investigators have studied the topic, it hasn’t been given enough attention by modern psychology.( 尽管一些非常著名的研究者研究过这一课题，但它并没有得到现代心理学的足够重视。) 那么可以推理出“that”所指为婴儿的笑，这一现象并没有得到现代心理学的足够重视。故选D项。 【48题详解】 本题属于细节理解题。根据题干定位到文章第五段第5句: This shows that way before babies walk, or talk, they – and their laughter – are social.( 这表明，在婴儿走路或说话之前，他们以及他们的笑声是社会性的。) 故选D项。 【49题详解】 本题属于推理判断题。根据题干定位到文章最后一段最后一句: This is a prejudice Addyman hopes to overturn – for him, the study of laughter is certainly no joke.( 这是Addyman想要推翻的偏见，对他来说，对笑的研究绝不是笑话。) 可知，对于他来说，研究婴儿的笑这一现象是值得的。故选A项。 【50题详解】 本题属于推理判断题。根据文章中第三段，第四段，第五段可以知道作者引用了大量的研究结果进行论证描述。比如,第三段提及：via his website he surveyed more than 1,000 parents from around the world, asking them questions about when, where and why their babies laugh；第四段提及：the results are heart-warming. A baby’s first smile comes at about six weeks, their first laugh at about three and a half months. Peekaboo(躲猫猫) is a sure-fire favourite for making babies laugh, but tickling(挠痒痒) is the single most reported reason why babies laugh；第五段提及importantly, from the very first chuckle(低声轻笑), the survey responses show that babies are laughing with other people, and at what they do.可知，作者对此的态度是以事实为依据的。故选B项。 【点睛】易错分析： 3. The result of the survey undertaken by Addyman show that ________. A. babies are likely to laugh at people falling over B. babies are very fond of being tickled C. babies’ first laugh comes at six weeks D. babies and their laughter are social in a way 本题涉及的段落为四，五，六三段，内容较多较复杂，在做题时易主观判断而误选A项。需将每一个选项回原文进行对比分析，从而得出正确答案。 A. babies are likely to laugh at people falling over 定位回原文第六段第1句: What’s more, babies don’t tend to laugh at people falling over.( 更重要的是，婴儿不会嘲笑摔倒的人。)可知A项属于完全相反错误。 B. babies are very fond of being tickled定位回原文第六段末尾句: If you tickle a baby they apparently laugh because you are tickling them, not just because they are tickled.( 如果你胳肢婴儿，他们显然是在笑，因为你在胳肢他们，而不是因为他们被胳肢了。)只能理解出婴儿喜欢被胳肢的互动而不是被胳肢。故选项B属于望文生义错误。 C. babies’ first laugh comes at six weeks定位回原文第五段第2句: A baby’s first smile comes at about six weeks, their first laugh at about three and a half months（婴儿的第一个微笑出现在大约六周的时候，他们的第一个笑声出现在大约三个半月的时候），可知婴儿的第一次笑声出现在大约三个半月的时候。故C项属于张冠李戴错误。 D. babies and their laughter are social in a way与原文第五段第5句: This shows that way before babies walk, or talk, they – and their laughter – are social.( 这表明，在婴儿走路或说话之前，他们以及他们的笑声是社会性的。) 表述一致。因此D项正确。 D In the U.S., yellow means slow down, get ready to stop. But in Denmark, yellow gives you a signal before stopping and going. The idea that you’re given a moment to get ready to move, not just to hit the brakes, stuck with us. Once we were back home, we started to notice how rarely we allow that in daily life. We prepare for endings constantly. We think through worst-case scenarios. We rehearse (排练) the breakup speech, the layoff call, and the backup plan. Yet, we rarely give ourselves space to prepare for beginnings. We do not practice coming back after burnout. We do not rehearse for the moment the proverbial light turns green, and we need to remember how to move forward again. Most of us know how to handle disappointment because we have been trained to plan for it. We buy insurance policies to protect ourselves from loss. We hold backup plans in our heads, always ready with a plan B or C if things fall apart. However, we do not always know how to prepare for the moments when things go well. We are often caught off guard when the new job comes through, when the project is finally finished, or when the idea we have been carrying quietly suddenly takes off. What we do not practice nearly as often is preparing for joy. The gap between preparing to stop and preparing to go reminds us of something in psychology called psychological flexibility. It’s really about the ability to shift and bend when life doesn’t go the way you thought it would. It’s noticing when the plan you had in your head no longer works and being willing to shift rather than cling to the map you drew months, or even minutes, ago. Accept that beginnings feel clumsy. For example, the first day in a new job rarely feels smooth. You are trying to remember names, find the coffee machine, and pretend you’re not lost on your way back from the bathroom. The first draft of anything worth writing usually looks like something you’d rather hide in a drawer. It’s what standing in the yellow light feels like, knowing the move is coming, feeling a little awkward, and still not sure if your foot is on the gas yet. However, life is not just about red lights that stop us or green lights that tell us to go, but the yellow in between matters too. It’s the space that lets us catch our breath, look around, and ready ourselves for whatever comes next. 51. What function does Paragraph 1 serve in the passage? A. To introduce the topic from a cultural difference. B. To present a research finding on traffic lights. C. To compare traffic rules in various countries. D. To warn readers of potential traffic problems. 52. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2? A. Breakups and layoffs are common in life. B. People spend too much time on backup plans. C. People lack preparation for new starts in life. D. Burnout often stops people from moving forward. 53. What is psychological flexibility? A. The ability to stick to original plans firmly. B. The ability to adjust when life goes off track. C. The ability to predict worst-case scenarios. D. The ability to handle disappointment well. 54. What reading strategy may help understand the metaphor of “yellow light” in the passage? A. Analyzing the author’s tone and writing purpose. B. Identifying key words in each paragraph. C. Comparing different cultural backgrounds. D. Connecting the literal meaning to the symbolic one. 55. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. The Value of Psychological Flexibility. B. Life’s “Yellow Light”: Space to Prepare. C. Different Meanings of the Traffic Lights. D. Prepare for Both Endings and Beginnings. 【答案】51. A 52. C 53. B 54. D 55. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章探讨了“黄灯”在人生中的隐喻意义——它是一个至关重要的过渡和准备阶段，呼吁人们不仅要善于为“结束”做准备，更要学会为“新的开始”创造心理准备空间，并培养适应变化的心理弹性。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In the U.S., yellow means slow down, get ready to stop. But in Denmark, yellow gives you a signal before stopping and going. The idea that you’re given a moment to get ready to move, not just to hit the brakes, stuck with us. (在美国，黄灯表示减速，准备停车。但在丹麦，黄灯是停车和通行前的信号。你有时间准备行动，而不仅仅是踩刹车，这种想法一直伴随着我们。)”可知，这里对比美国和丹麦对交通信号灯“黄灯”的不同理解，结合后文将讨论黄灯也是“准备启动”的过渡空间这一话题可知，该段的作用是通过一个文化差异来引出文章的主题。故选A项。 【52题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段“We prepare for endings constantly. We think through worst-case scenarios. We rehearse (排练) the breakup speech, the layoff call, and the backup plan. Yet, we rarely give ourselves space to prepare for beginnings. We do not practice coming back after burnout. We do not rehearse for the moment the proverbial light turns green, and we need to remember how to move forward again. (我们不断为结局做准备。我们会考虑最坏的情况。我们排练分手谈话，解雇电话，以及备用计划。然而，我们很少给自己空间为开始做准备。我们不会练习在精疲力竭后复出。我们不为众所周知的绿灯亮起的那一刻进行排练，我们需要记住如何再次前进。)”可知，该段主要对比“为结束做准备”的普遍性与“为开始做准备”的稀缺性，表明人们缺乏为生活中的新开始做准备。故选C项。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“The gap between preparing to stop and preparing to go reminds us of something in psychology called psychological flexibility. It’s really about the ability to shift and bend when life doesn’t go the way you thought it would. It’s noticing when the plan you had in your head no longer works and being willing to shift rather than cling to the map you drew months, or even minutes, ago. (准备停止和准备开始之间的差距让我们想起心理学上所谓的心理灵活性。它是关于当生活不像你想象的那样时改变和变通的能力。它是注意到你头脑中的计划何时不再有效，并愿意改变，而不是坚持几个月前，甚至几分钟前画的地图。)”可知，心理弹性指的是当生活偏离轨道时进行调整的能力。故选B项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中“In the U.S., yellow means slow down, get ready to stop. But in Denmark, yellow gives you a signal before stopping and going. (在美国，黄灯表示减速，准备停车。但在丹麦，黄灯是停车和通行前的信号。)”和最后一段“However, life is not just about red lights that stop us or green lights that tell us to go, but the yellow in between matters too. It’s the space that lets us catch our breath, look around, and ready ourselves for whatever comes next. (然而，生活不仅仅是红灯让我们停下来，绿灯让我们前进，两者之间的黄灯也很重要。这是一个让我们喘口气、环顾四周、为接下来的事情做好准备的空间。)”可知，文章以交通信号灯中“黄灯”的字面含义为落脚点，逐步将其象征意义扩展到人生哲学层面，代表“为开始做准备的过渡空间”。由此可知，理解文中“黄灯”隐喻的阅读策略，是将它的字面含义与象征含义联系起来。故选D项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是最后一段“However, life is not just about red lights that stop us or green lights that tell us to go, but the yellow in between matters too. It’s the space that lets us catch our breath, look around, and ready ourselves for whatever comes next. (然而，生活不仅仅是红灯让我们停下来，绿灯让我们前进，两者之间的黄灯也很重要。这是一个让我们喘口气、环顾四周、为接下来的事情做好准备的空间。)”可知，文章围绕“黄灯”这一核心意象展开，探讨其在人生中的象征意义：一个允许我们“喘息、观察、为下一步做准备”的空间。因此，B项“生活的‘黄灯’：准备的空间”最契合文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选B项。 四、阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，按照要求完成阅读任务。 My mother put the golden butterfly pendant (吊坠) on my neck. In her eyes, I saw pride for the first woman of our family to achieve a university education. My grandmother loved to tell us stories of her first years at primary school on the small island of Chios, Greece: her beautiful handwriting, much praised by her teachers and her good marks. All this changed in Grade 4 when one day my grandmother’s nose started to bleed as she was doing her homework. It scared my great-grandmother, because in those years, many were dying from tuberculosis (结核病). Spending hours indoors studying was associated with growing weak and pale, a sign of that terrible disease. The family prohibited Grandma from finishing primary school and sent her to a local factory. My mother was able to finish high school on Chios. She was an excellent student and her parents encouraged her to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher. Unfortunately, the Second World War clipped her wings. She ended up marrying and looking after her family’s businesses. As I grew up, my mother always urged me to get the university education that she was denied. Sometimes I remember wanting to help her out with cooking or baking. “No,” my mother would say. “Go back to your homework! That takes priority!” My father, following the Greek tradition, would tell her: “Teach Sophia to cook! What is she going to feed her family?” I also remember relatives telling my parents to hurry and arrange a marriage for me as soon as I finished high school. “There is time for all that! Later on! First, she will get a degree!” my mother always hurried to reply. On my university graduation, my mother presented me with my grandma’s special pendant. “But this is the pendant Grandma used to say she would only give me on my engagement day!” I reminded my mother. “A degree is better than an engagement ring; that’s what I told Grandma and she agreed,” my mother replied. 56. What made the mother proud? (no more than 15 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 57. How was Grandma’s performance during the primary school? (no more than 5 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined part “clipped her wings” in paragraph 3 mean? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 59. What does paragraph 4 mainly show about the mother? (no more than 10 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What do you think of the author’s mother? Please explain. (no more than 20 words) ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Her daughter becoming the first woman of the family to achieve a university education. Or: Seeing her daughter become the first university-educated woman in their family. Or: Her daughter’s university graduation and academic achievement. 57. It was excellent/outstanding. 58. Stopped her from achieving her goal. 59. She valued education over traditional expectations. 60. She is determined and strong-willed because she prioritizes her daughter’s education against all traditional pressures. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文以“金蝴蝶吊坠”为情感线索，通过三代女性（曾祖母→祖母→母亲→作者）的教育经历对比，展现了母亲突破传统束缚、全力支持女儿追求大学教育的坚定信念，凸显了教育对女性命运的改变及母爱的传承。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第一段内容“In her eyes, I saw pride for the first woman of our family to achieve a university education.(从她的眼神里，我看到了她为我们家第一位考上大学的女性所流露的骄傲。)”可知，母亲眼中的骄傲源于“我”是家族中首位获得大学教育的女性（the first woman of our family to achieve a university education）。此处答案应是为问题的主语，用动名词或名词短语形式作答。故答案为：Her daughter becoming the first woman of the family to achieve a university education. Or: Seeing her daughter become the first university-educated woman in their family. Or: Her daughter’s university graduation and academic achievement. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第二段内容“My grandmother loved to tell us stories of her first years at primary school on the small island of Chios, Greece: her beautiful handwriting, much praised by her teachers and her good marks.(我的祖母喜欢给我们讲她在希腊基奥斯岛上的小学最初几年的故事：她漂亮的字迹深受老师们的称赞，还有她的好成绩。)”可知，祖母小学时写字漂亮，成绩好，深受老师称赞，可总结为“表现优异(It was excellent/outstanding.)”。故答案为：It was excellent/outstanding. 【58题详解】 考查词句猜测。前文“She was an excellent student and her parents encouraged her to pursue her dream of becoming a teacher.(她是一名非常优秀的学生，她的父母也鼓励她去实现成为一名教师的梦想。)”提到母亲“是优秀学生，想成为教师”，而画线短语所在句后文 “She ended up marrying and looking after her family’s businesses.(她最终结婚了，并且打理着家里的生意。)”却说“二战爆发”后，她“结婚并打理家族生意”，可见梦想未能实现。画线短语“clipped her wings”字面意为 “剪断翅膀”，结合上下文推断喻义，此处引申为 “阻止某人实现目标”，即“Stopped her from achieving her goal”。故答案为：Stopped her from achieving her goal. 【59题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第四段内容“Sometimes I remember wanting to help her out with cooking or baking. ‘No,’ my mother would say. ‘Go back to your homework! That takes priority!’(有时我会想起自己曾想帮她做饭或者烘焙点什么。但母亲总是会说：“不行，回去做你的作业吧！那才是最重要的！”)”以及“I also remember relatives telling my parents to hurry and arrange a marriage for me as soon as I finished high school. ‘There is time for all that! Later on! First, she will get a degree!’ my mother always hurried to reply.(我还记得亲戚们告诉我的父母，只要我高中毕业，就赶紧为我安排婚事。“还有时间去做那些事呢！以后再说吧！首先，她得先拿到学位！”母亲总是急忙回应道。)”可知，母亲拒绝让作者做家务、反对亲戚“安排婚姻”的建议，这些都是母亲的“学业优先”原则的体现。故答案为：She valued education over traditional expectations. 【60题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第五段内容“As I grew up, my mother always urged me to get the university education that she was denied.(随着我逐渐长大，母亲一直鼓励我要接受她未曾得到的大学教育。)”以及“I also remember relatives telling my parents to hurry and arrange a marriage for me as soon as I finished high school. ‘There is time for all that! Later on! First, she will get a degree!’ my mother always hurried to reply.(我还记得亲戚们告诉我的父母，只要我高中毕业，就赶紧为我安排婚事。“还有时间去做那些事呢！以后再说吧！首先，她得先拿到学位！”母亲总是急忙回应道。)”可知，母亲突破传统观念，坚持支持女儿教育，这体现了她“坚定、有主见”的品质。故答案为：She is determined and strong-willed because she prioritizes her daughter’s education against all traditional pressures. 五、书面表达（满分25分） 61. 假设你是晨光中学的李津，新加坡友好校将派师生来你校参加为期五天的“青年与城市发展”交流活动。活动期间，新方将安排一场关于“青年与天津发展”的专题讲座。现就讲座内容征求你校学生的意见。请根据以下提示给新方教师代表Mr. Watson写一封电子邮件： 1.你建议的讲座话题（从中学生志愿服务行动、青年在科技创新中的作用、海河生态保护中任选其一）； 2.选择该话题的原因及关于该话题你感兴趣的具体内容； 3.谈谈你希望从此次讲座的收获。 注意： 1.词数不少于100； 2.可适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； 3.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 参考词汇： 中学生志愿服务行动 Volunteer Activities by Middle School Students； 青年在科技创新中的作用 The Role of Youth in Technological Innovation 海河生态保护 Ecological Protection of the Haihe River Dear Mr. Watson, _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely Li Jin 【答案】Dear Mr. Watson, I’m Li Jin from Chenguang Middle School.
