These courses, which last three to five days, involve different activities. Students can experience rope (绳索) and rock climbing, camp in tents at night, go on long walks in forests, and learn how to make a fire. Although there are risks in these courses, they offer important training in life skills. But the question remains: Are these courses really necessary? Cindy, a Singaporean student who has taken part in outdoor survival (生存的) courses, shares her thoughts. She says that these courses teach practical survival skills. For example, she has learned how to find drinking water and food using a map and compass, “to find the way, and keep herself safe.” “What’s more important,” she adds, “is that through these activities, I’ve built my character and made me stronger, braver, and built up the courage. Now, the needle, just like a compass, more meaningful. The courses have made me understand the real meaning of teamwork.” An education expert also points out that outdoor courses help students develop critical thinking (批判性思维) and communication skills. While textbooks provide knowledge, some lessons—like leadership and problem-solving—are best learned through action. Now, students take the courses in groups from their own schools. However, next year, they will be grouped with students from different schools. What makes this change happen? Good communication skills are highly needed in today’s world. Working closely with students from different backgrounds is an excellent way to improve these skills. 20. Why do schools in Singapore give outdoor courses? A. To provide training in life skills. B. To offer different activities. C. To introduce knowledge of forests. 21. What has Cindy learned from the outdoor survival courses? ①Ways of finding directions. ② The importance of teamwork. ③ Ways of improving her grades. A. ①② B. ①③ C. ③④ 22. What can we infer according to the expert? A. Textbooks can provide more information for students. B. Outdoor activities are suitable for Singaporean students. C. Students can learn something different through different ways. 23. Which question does paragraph 4 mainly answer? A. When can students work closely with each other? B. Why do changes need to come with different people? C. What changes can the different courses bring to students? 24. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Outdoor courses in different countries. B. Helpful outdoor courses in Singapore. C. The future changes in outdoor courses. 【答案】20. A 21. A 22. C 23. B 24. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要探讨了新加坡中小学将户外技能课程作为教育重要组成部分的原因、其价值（如教授生存技能、塑造品格、培养批判性思维和沟通能力）以及未来的调整方向。 【20题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Although there are risks in these courses, they offer important training in life skills.”可知，新加坡学校开设户外课程是为了提供生活技能方面的训练。故选A。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段Cindy的分享“she has learned...how to use a map and compass, ‘to find the way’”，对应①；“the real meaning of teamwork”，对应②。文中未提及提高成绩的方法。故选A。 【22题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段专家观点“While textbooks provide knowledge, some lessons...are best learned through action.”可知，专家认为有些课程（如领导力、解决问题）通过行动学习效果最好，即学生可以通过不同的方式学到不同的东西。故选C。 【23题详解】 主旨大意题。第四段解释了为何明年课程要将不同学校的学生分组：“Good communication skills are highly needed...Working closely with students from different backgrounds is an excellent way to improve these skills.” 这回答了“为什么需要与不同的人一起进行改变？”这一问题。故选B。 【24题详解】 最佳标题题。全文围绕新加坡户外课程的设置、意义、学生收获以及未来改进展开，强调其有益性，因此“新加坡有益的户外课程”是最佳标题。故选B。 B It is said that China is the first country to use the compass (指南针). Now it has become an important tool to help people find directions. From any place on the earth, a compass will always point north. That’s because a compass is a small magnet (磁铁). And a compass works because the earth also acts like a big magnet. Now let’s try to make a compass to see if it can find north. What you need A piece of foam (泡沫) • scissors • a magnet • a needle (针) • a bowl of water Steps: 1. Cut out a small piece of foam, about 1.5 cm long on each side. 2. Rub (摩擦) the needle against the magnet. Do this many times and make sure you always rub the needle in the same direction. This will make your needle magnetic. 3. Put the needle all the way through the foam. Float (漂浮) the foam and the needle in your bowl of water. Try to put it in the center of the bowl. The needle will stay on the surface of the water. 4. The water, foam and needle together form a compass that points north. It will stay just the same as the real compass. 25. Why should we rub the needle against the magnet? A. To make the needle brighter. B. To make the needle shorter. C. To make the needle magnetic. 26. Which is newly added in Step 3? A. Foam. B. Water. C. A needle. 27. What will happen to the needle after we put it on the water? A It will drop into the water. B. It will turn and find north. C. It will turn around the bowl. 28. Where is this passage most likely to be found? A. In a history report. B. In a chemistry textbook. C. In a science magazine. 【答案】25. C 26. B 27. B 28. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了指南针的工作原理，并提供了制作一个简易指南针的具体步骤和所需材料。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据步骤2“Rub the needle against the magnet...This will make your needle magnetic.”可知，用磁铁摩擦针是为了使针具有磁性。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。步骤2中已经使用了泡沫和针，步骤3中提到“Float the foam and the needle in your bowl of water.”，因此新加入的是水。故选B。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据步骤3和步骤4的描述“Float the foam and the needle in your bowl of water...The water, foam and needle together form a compass that points north.”可知，将针放在水面上后，它最终会指向北方。故选B。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。文章内容围绕科学原理（地球磁场、磁化现象）和一个动手制作指南针的科学实验展开，这类内容最可能出现在科学杂志上。故选C。 C Yang Chen-Ning, a world-famous physicist and Nobel Prize winner, passed away in Beijing on October 18, 2025.

But at some point, you’ll probably want to sound like a native (母语的) speaker. ____44____ Here is something you can follow. First of all, make sure you know your grammar. “Bad grammar will hold you back,” Emile Dodds, from the Leonardo English website says. Here he tells of the importance of knowing the rules of a language. ____45____ In fact, sometimes you should do the opposite thing! A more natural and down-to-earth way can be more useful. Next, when native speakers talk naturally, they often use contractions. Contractions are shortened forms of words, such as “can’t” for “cannot” and “won’t” for “will not”.____46____ Although these contractions are not often used in writing, they sound very natural in spoken English. Then, filler words are necessary too. Filler words are another important part of natural speech. They are words like “um”, “uh” and “well”. ____47____ For example, when you want to invite someone, you might say, “So, I was thinking, um, are you doing anything later?” ____48____ You can learn by listening to native speakers on the Internet or in movies to hear how they speak. This way, you can pick up useful words and sentences to improve your speaking skills. Keep practicing, and soon you will sound more like a native speaker! A. They help you to express yourself more clearly. B. Learning to speak naturally takes time and practice. C. So how can you make your speech sound more natural? D. However, that doesn’t mean you have to speak like the King of England. E. Native speakers also shorten “going to” to “gonna” or “got to” to “gotta”. F. They not only sound natural, but also give you time to think about what you’ll say next. 【答案】44. C 45. D 46. E 47. F 48. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章为英语学习者提供了一些建议，帮助他们让口语听起来更像母语人士，包括掌握语法的度、使用缩略形式、使用填充词以及多听多练。 【44题详解】 根据“But at some point, you’ll probably want to sound like a native (母语的) speaker.”以及“Here is something you can follow.”可知，前文提出了像母语人士一样说话的目标，后文即将给出建议，因此空处应是一个承上启下的句子，引出“如何做”的话题。选项C“那么你如何能让你的讲话听起来更自然呢？”符合语境。故选C。 【45题详解】 根据“Here he tells of the importance of knowing the rules of a language.”以及“In fact, sometimes you should do the opposite thing!”可知，前文提到知道规则（语法）很重要，但后文通过In fact转折，指出有时应该反其道而行之（即不必死抠语法）。因此，空处应填入表示转折或修正前文观点的句子，说明不必像教科书或权威那样说话。选项D“然而，那并不意味着你必须像英国国王那样说话。”符合语境。故选D。 【46题详解】 根据“Contractions are shortened forms of words, such as ‘can’t’ for ‘cannot’ and ‘won’t’ for ‘will not’”以及“Although these contractions are not often used in writing, they sound very natural in spoken English.”可知，前文解释了缩略词并举例，后文评价了其在口语中的自然性，因此空处应补充更多口语中常见的缩略词例子。选项E“母语人士也把“going to”缩写成“gonna”或把“got to”缩写成“gotta”。”符合语境。故选E。 【47题详解】 根据“They are words like ‘um’, ‘uh’ and ‘well’.”以及“For example, when you want to invite someone, you might say, ‘So, I was thinking, um, are you doing anything later?’”可知，前文列举了填充词，后文通过例子展示了填充词给说话者留出思考时间的作用，因此空处应具体解释填充词的功能。选项F“它们不仅听起来自然，而且给你时间思考接下来要说什么。”符合语境。故选F。 【48题详解】 根据“You can learn by listening to native speakers…Keep practicing…”可知，后文强调通过听和练来学习，这是一个需要时间积累的过程。因此，空处作为段首句，应概括说明学习自然口语需要投入时间和练习。选项B“学会自然地说话需要时间和练习。”符合语境。故选B。 三、阅读表达。(共10小题;每小题2分，计20分) 完成图表。根据短文内容，完成图表中所缺信息，词数不限。 Look at the picture! It’s one of the most famous murals (壁画) from the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang. There are about 45,000 m2 of murals that should be seen there. Without doubt, the beauty of Dunhuang and the Mogao Grottoes is liked by the whole world. However, the question has always been how to show the thousand-year-old treasures to more people but still protect them at the same time. Thus, the “Digital Dunhuang Project (数字敦煌工程)” came into being. The project was put forward around 1990 by Fan Jinshi, the “Daughter of Dunhuang”. She hoped to use digital technology to store the cultural treasures of the grottoes clearly and carefully. The Digital Dunhuang was set up in 2006 and a professional team was built. After eight years, digital images were used to make an 8K movie. By 2022, digital data (数据) of 278 grottoes had been collected. Mogao Grottoes Digital Exhibition Center, which is 15 km from the real site, was built to help people have a better understanding of the Mogao Grottoes before paying a visit to the real grottoes. For example, people can enjoy some movies about murals created with the help of digital data in the center. The new form results in a win-win situation between the protection of murals and the development of tourism. The Mogao Grottoes are not just old walls with paintings — they are windows to the great art. With the help of digital tools, these amazing murals are being protected well. This way, more people can enjoy these beautiful stories and learn about ancient times in the future. The “Digital Dunhuang project” — a way to protect the Mogao Grottoes Background An important part of it • There are many amazing murals in the Mogao Grottoes. • Opened in 2014, Mogao Grottoes Digital Exhibition Center is an important part of the project. • The problem is how to show their beauty to the world ____49____ damaging (损害) them. • The center helps visitors ____50____ better ____51____ the Mogao Grottoes. • The ____52____ started around 1990 → made a professional team and Digital Dunhuang in 2006 → made an 8K movie with digital images in 2014 → had collected digital data of 278 grottoes by 2022 • The center is ____53____ both the protection of ____54____ and the development of tourism. • The digital tools can help ____55____ these murals and the culture to more generations (代). 【答案】49. without 50. to 51. understand 52. project 53. balancing 54. murals 55. pass on 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了“数字敦煌”项目的背景、发展历程及其对保护敦煌莫高窟文化遗产、促进旅游业发展的重要意义。 【49题详解】  根据第一段“...how to show the thousand-year-old treasures to more people but still protect them at the same time.”可知，问题是“如何在向世界展示其美的同时，不损害它们”。故填without，构成“without damaging”短语。 【50题详解】 根据第三段“Mogao Grottoes Digital Exhibition Center... was built to help people have a better understanding of the Mogao Grottoes before...”可知，中心旨在帮助游客更好地理解莫高窟。“help sb. to do sth.”“帮助某人做某事”，其中不定式符号to是搭配的一部分。故填to。 【51题详解】  根据第三段“Mogao Grottoes Digital Exhibition Center... was built to help people have a better understanding of the Mogao Grottoes before...”可知，中心旨在帮助游客更好地理解莫高窟。have a better understanding of“对……有更好的理解”，其动词形式是understand。故填understand。 【52题详解】 根据第二段“The project was put forward around 1990 by Fan Jinshi.”并结合前文背景可知，此处指这个“项目”的提议始于1990年。故填project。 【53题详解】 根据第三段“The new form results in a win-win situation between the protection of murals and the development of tourism.”可知，新形式实现了壁画保护与旅游发展的双赢。填入balancing，构成“is balancing both...”的表述，意为“正在平衡两者”。 【54题详解】 根据上下文，此处指中心既保护“壁画”又发展旅游。结合第三段“the protection of murals”可知，故填murals。 【55题详解】 根据最后一段“With the help of digital tools, these amazing murals are being protected well. This way, more people can enjoy these beautiful stories...”可知，数字化工具能帮助将壁画和文化“传递”给更多后人。“pass on sth. to sb.”“将某物传递给某人”。故填pass on。 任务型阅读。根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。 Liaoliao, whose real name is Wang Fangting, grew up in Chongqing. Her childhood was far from being easy, so she always doubted herself and couldn’t find her place in the world. In 2000, she went to Ukraine (乌克兰) to study art. After returning to China, she kept looking for her way in art until paper cutting suddenly caught her eye. It was a quiet day in 2008 when Liaoliao stayed at home alone. With a piece of red paper and a pair of sharp scissors in hand, she started trying folding and cutting the paper just to kill time. When she finally unfolded the paper, a beautiful pattern appeared before her eyes, surprising her greatly. From then on, she fell in love with paper cutting. She practiced every day, and gradually her skills improved. “Compared with other art forms like painting or sculpture (雕塑), paper cutting is simpler and cleaner. Moreover, every cut is a choice, and, for me, it feels good to decide what to make,“ she explained. Liaoliao also creates artworks for books. ”Her works are full of her own fresh and special ideas,“ said Chen Lingyun, a staff member of a publishing company (出版社). ”When I saw her works for the book Yuefu, I thought her cuts fit the ancient poems (诗歌) inside very well. I really liked her work Liangnan — a picture for a poem with the same name. It has lots of lotus leaves in different sizes, flowers, and lively fish swimming around. It shows her endless imagination about the beautiful natural scene."

These courses, which last three to five days, involve different activities. Students can experience rope (绳索) and rock climbing, camp in tents at night, go on long walks in forests, and learn how to make a fire. Although there are risks in these courses, they offer important training in life skills. But the question remains: Are these courses really necessary? Cindy, a Singaporean student who has taken part in outdoor survival (生存的) courses, shares her thoughts. She says that these courses teach practical survival skills. For example, she has learned how to find drinking water and food using a map and compass, “to find the way, and keep herself safe.” “What’s more important,” she adds, “is that through these activities, I’ve built my character and made me stronger, braver, and built up the courage. Now, the needle, just like a compass, more meaningful. The courses have made me understand the real meaning of teamwork.” An education expert also points out that outdoor courses help students develop critical thinking (批判性思维) and communication skills. While textbooks provide knowledge, some lessons—like leadership and problem-solving—are best learned through action. Now, students take the courses in groups from their own schools. However, next year, they will be grouped with students from different schools. What makes this change happen? Good communication skills are highly needed in today’s world. Working closely with students from different backgrounds is an excellent way to improve these skills. 20. Why do schools in Singapore give outdoor courses? A. To provide training in life skills. B. To offer different activities. C. To introduce knowledge of forests. 21. What has Cindy learned from the outdoor survival courses? ①Ways of finding directions. ② The importance of teamwork. ③ Ways of improving her grades. A. ①② B. ①③ C. ③④ 22. What can we infer according to the expert? A. Textbooks can provide more information for students. B. Outdoor activities are suitable for Singaporean students. C. Students can learn something different through different ways. 23. Which question does paragraph 4 mainly answer? A. When can students work closely with each other? B. Why do changes need to come with different people? C. What changes can the different courses bring to students? 24 Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Outdoor courses in different countries. B. Helpful outdoor courses in Singapore. C. The future changes in outdoor courses. B It is said that China is the first country to use the compass (指南针). Now it has become an important tool to help people find directions. From any place on the earth, a compass will always point north. That’s because a compass is a small magnet (磁铁). And a compass works because the earth also acts like a big magnet. Now let’s try to make a compass to see if it can find north. What you need A piece of foam (泡沫) • scissors • a magnet • a needle (针) • a bowl of water Steps: 1. Cut out a small piece of foam, about 1.5 cm long on each side. 2. Rub (摩擦) the needle against the magnet. Do this many times and make sure you always rub the needle in the same direction. This will make your needle magnetic. 3. Put the needle all the way through the foam. Float (漂浮) the foam and the needle in your bowl of water. Try to put it in the center of the bowl. The needle will stay on the surface of the water. 4. The water, foam and needle together form a compass that points north. It will stay just the same as the real compass. 25. Why should we rub the needle against the magnet? A. To make the needle brighter. B. To make the needle shorter. C. To make the needle magnetic. 26. Which is newly added in Step 3? A. Foam. B. Water. C. A needle. 27. What will happen to the needle after we put it on the water? A. It will drop into the water. B. It will turn and find north. C. It will turn around the bowl. 28. Where is this passage most likely to be found? A. In a history report. B. In a chemistry textbook. C. In a science magazine.

But at some point, you’ll probably want to sound like a native (母语的) speaker. ____44____ Here is something you can follow. First of all, make sure you know your grammar. “Bad grammar will hold you back,” Emile Dodds, from the Leonardo English website says. Here he tells of the importance of knowing the rules of a language. ____45____ In fact, sometimes you should do the opposite thing! A more natural and down-to-earth way can be more useful. Next, when native speakers talk naturally, they often use contractions. Contractions are shortened forms of words, such as “can’t” for “cannot” and “won’t” for “will not”.____46____ Although these contractions are not often used in writing, they sound very natural in spoken English. Then, filler words are necessary too. Filler words are another important part of natural speech. They are words like “um”, “uh” and “well”. ____47____ For example, when you want to invite someone, you might say, “So, I was thinking, um, are you doing anything later?” ____48____ You can learn by listening to native speakers on the Internet or in movies to hear how they speak.

It’s one of the most famous murals (壁画) from the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang. There are about 45,000 m2 of murals that should be seen there. Without doubt, the beauty of Dunhuang and the Mogao Grottoes is liked by the whole world. However, the question has always been how to show the thousand-year-old treasures to more people but still protect them at the same time. Thus, the “Digital Dunhuang Project (数字敦煌工程)” came into being. The project was put forward around 1990 by Fan Jinshi, the “Daughter of Dunhuang”. She hoped to use digital technology to store the cultural treasures of the grottoes clearly and carefully. The Digital Dunhuang was set up in 2006 and a professional team was built. After eight years, digital images were used to make an 8K movie. By 2022, digital data (数据) of 278 grottoes had been collected. Mogao Grottoes Digital Exhibition Center which is 15 km from the real site, was built to help people have a better understanding of the Mogao Grottoes before paying a visit to the real grottoes. For example, people can enjoy some movies about murals created with the help of digital data in the center. The new form results in a win-win situation between the protection of murals and the development of tourism. The Mogao Grottoes are not just old walls with paintings — they are windows to the great art. With the help of digital tools, these amazing murals are being protected well. This way, more people can enjoy these beautiful stories and learn about ancient times in the future.

Her childhood was far from being easy, so she always doubted herself and couldn’t find her place in the world. In 2000, she went to Ukraine (乌克兰) to study art. After returning to China, she kept looking for her way in art until paper cutting suddenly caught her eye. It was a quiet day in 2008 when Liaoliao stayed at home alone. With a piece of red paper and a pair of sharp scissors in hand, she started trying folding and cutting the paper just to kill time. When she finally unfolded the paper, a beautiful pattern appeared before her eyes, surprising her greatly. From then on, she fell in love with paper cutting. She practiced every day, and gradually her skills improved. “Compared with other art forms like painting or sculpture (雕塑), paper cutting is simpler and cleaner. Moreover, every cut is a choice, and, for me, it feels good to decide what to make,“ she explained. Liaoliao also creates artworks for books. ”Her works are full of her own fresh and special ideas,“ said Chen Lingyun, a staff member of a publishing company (出版社). ”When I saw her works for the book Yuefu, I thought her cuts fit the ancient poems (诗歌) inside very well. I really liked her work Liangnan — a picture for a poem with the same name. It has lots of lotus leaves in different sizes, flowers, and lively fish swimming around. It shows her endless imagination about the beautiful natural scene." Liaoliao’s experiences are really encouraging, as they show us that even when life is quite hard, there is always a way to find light. 56.
