Many people think heirlooms (传家宝) are expensive things. However, Sara doesn’t think so. She has a few heirlooms. Anyone can buy them in a shop. However, they are special to her because they belonged to her grandmother.
After Sara’s grandmother died, her family chose something of hers to keep to remember her. As Sara lived far away, her mother picked things out for her—a tablecloth, a mirror, and an old pot. Sara kept these things, but she didn’t use them much. The tablecloth didn’t fit her tables. She didn’t like the color of the mirror frame (镜框), and the pot was too small and old.
Sara’s life changed when she read something in a book: Don’t keep anything in your house that you don’t find useful or beautiful. That’s right. “But what about sentimental (情感的) things like heirlooms? They’re beautiful if they remind us of good times with loved ones,” Sara thought.
Sara decided to give these things a fresh start. She painted the mirror frame a different color to go with her daughter’s room. Although Sara’s daughter never met her grandmother, they share a connection through the mirror. Sara bought a table to go with her grandmother’s tablecloth. She also started using her grandmother’s pot. Whenever she cooks with it, Sara thinks of her grandmother making bread long ago. These things, once forgotten, are useful again, bringing together old memories and new stories.
26. What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A. Heirlooms. B. Gold. C. Silver. D. Expensive things.
27. Why did Sara hardly use her heirlooms?
A. Because they were too old. B. Because she liked modern things better.
C. Because they didn’t meet her needs or taste. D. Because they reminded her of her grandmother.
28. What made Sara change her attitude toward the heirlooms?
A. Advice from a friend. B. Words from a book. C. Her mother’s advice. D. Her daughter’s wish.
29. What can we infer from the text?
A. Sara used her heirlooms to save money. B. Sara didn’t find her heirlooms beautiful.
C. Sara will keep more old things at home. D. Old things have sentimental meaning for Sara.
30. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Old treasures, new stories. B. Sara’s love for DIY activities.
C. How to choose family heirlooms. D. The meaning of expensive heirlooms.
【答案】26. A 27. C 28. B 29. D 30. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,Sara起初因传家宝不符合需求而少用,后受书中启发而重新利用,让旧传家宝承载旧回忆与新故事。
【26题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“However, they are special to her because they belonged to her grandmother.”可知,这里的“they”指的是前文提到的传家宝,故选A。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“The tablecloth didn’t fit her tables. She didn’t like the color of the mirror frame (镜框), and the pot was too small and old.”可知,Sara几乎不使用这些传家宝是因为它们不符合她的需求和品味,故选C。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Sara’s life changed when she read something in a book: Don’t keep anything in your house that you don’t find useful or beautiful.”可知,是书中的话让Sara改变了对传家宝的态度,故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据“‘But what about sentimental (情感的) things like heirlooms? They’re beautiful if they remind us of good times with loved ones,’ Sara thought.”和“These things, once forgotten, are useful again, bringing together old memories and new stories.”可以推断出,旧物件对Sara来说有着情感上的意义,故选D。
【30题详解】
最佳标题题。文章讲述了Sara对祖母的传家宝从忽视到重新利用,让旧物有了新故事,“Old treasures, new stories.” 最能概括文章内容,故选A。
(C)
“A friend in need is a friend indeed.” Friends are important to us. Friends help us get through hard times. Friends also influence us a lot. Let’s enjoy two poems about friendship.
To Wang Lun
I, Li Bai, sit aboard a ship about to go,
When suddenly on shore your farewell songs overflow.
However deep the Lake of Peach Blossoms may be,
It is not so deep,
O Wang Lun! As your love for me.
A Time to Talk
By Robert Frost
When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don’t stand still and look around
On all the hills I haven’t hoed,
And shout from where I am, what is it?
No, not as there is a time to talk.
I thrust my hoe in the mellow ground (把锄头插入松土).
Blade (刀片)-end up and five feet tall.
And plod (吃力行进): I go up to the stone wall for a friendly visit.
Both poems are famous in their cultures, but they tell different stories. Li Bai described the scene (场景) of his friend seeing him off. The U.S. poet Robert Frost wrote about a friend’s visit when he was working. Li made a comparison. His poem shows the friendship between him and his friend is deeper than the deep water. Frost’s poem, on the other hand, tells the readers that we should stop what we are doing to talk with our friends. It tells us that nothing should get in the way of spending time with friends. The language is simple but sincere.

①Friends who are in need. ②Friends are important to us.
③Friends influence us a lot. ④Friends help us get through hard times.
A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④
32. What scene did Li Bai mainly describe in the poem?
A Ships on the lake. B. Wang Lun seeing him off.
C. Peach blossoms. D. Songs sung by Wang Lun.
33. What is deeper than the Lake of Peach Blossoms in the first poem?
A. Friendship. B. Culture. C. Meaning. D. Comparison.
34. According to Robert Frost, which one is the right way to treat someone we care about?
A. Stand still and look around. B. Finish the work and then talk.
C. Stop and spend time with friends. D. Hoe hills and never shout.
35. What is the main idea of the last paragraph?
A. The end of the friendship. B. The popularity of the poems.
C. The comparison of people. D. The analysis (分析) of the poems.
【答案】31. D 32. B 33. A 34. C 35. D
【解析】

(D)
When I was small my mom always told me, “I just want you to be happy.” But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?
Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on platforms like Weibo and Xiaohongshu can actually make you feel worse about your life. They mislead people into thinking that others are better off. ★ Also, a study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. .
But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever.
Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen!
March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽) — it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way.
36. How does the writer lead in the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By raising questions. B. By giving examples. C. By comparing facts. D. By listing numbers.
37. Which of the following can be put in ★ ?
A. In this way, people can know more about others
B. In fact, social media use causes low spirits
C. Instead, people will take it seriously
D. In addition, social media opens people’s eyes
38. Which of the following best describes the change of people’s feelings in paragraph 3?
A. B. C. D.
39. Which person below might get lasting happiness in life according to paragraph 4?
A. Ava uses social media for over two hours a day.
B. Bella usually shows off her life on Xiaohongshu.
C. Chris loves posting pictures on WeChat Moments.
D. David controls his emotions calmly when he’s angry.
40. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The True Meaning of Social Media B. Happiness on Social Media C. The Search for True Happiness D. The Journey to World Happiness Day
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. B 39. D 40. C
【解析】
【导语】本文探讨了“幸福究竟是什么”这一话题,分析了社交媒体对幸福感的影响——过度使用可能让人感到孤独、降低情绪,且通过社交媒体获得的快乐难以持久。文章指出,真正持久的幸福源于接纳并处理各种情绪,与他人建立深厚的联系,并强调应关注自身的人生旅程,而非一味追求时刻快乐。
【36题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?”可知,作者通过提出两个关于“幸福是什么”的问题引入主题。故选A。
【37题详解】
推理判断题。根据“But going through posts... can actually make you feel worse about your life. They mislead people into thinking that others are better off.”及后文“people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely”可知,空格处需承接社交媒体带来的负面情绪。故选B。
【38题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness.”可知,情绪变化为:分享快乐时刻时兴奋→不久后回归平常→快乐结束后开始寻找新的幸福。故选B。
【39题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger... when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper... connections... those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer”可知,能接纳并处理愤怒等情绪的人能获得持久幸福。故选D。
【40题详解】
最佳标题题。文章围绕“幸福”展开,探讨了社交媒体上的幸福并非真正持久的幸福,进而说明真正的幸福源于接纳情绪、建立深厚联系,核心是“对真正幸福的追寻”。故选C。

【解析】
【详解】句意:这款人工智能模型汽车使用绿色能源驱动,对环境很友好。到目前为止,它已经赢得了全校的高度赞扬。“so far”是现在完成时的标志性时间状语,意思是“到目前为止”,所以这句话的时态是现在完成时,结构是“have/has+过去分词”,主语“it”是第三人称单数,助动词用“has”,“win”的过去分词是“won”。故填has won。

【导语】这篇文章介绍了中国科技公司发布的AI模型DeepSeek-R1,讲述了人工智能在近年的快速发展,以及它在驾驶、下棋、创作音乐等领域的应用,并展望了未来人类与AI的合作模式。
【66题详解】
句意:在过去几个月里,它已经吸引了大量关注。根据“in the past few months”可知,本句时态是现在完成时,主语It是第三人称单数,因此用has caught(catch的过去分词形式)。故填has caught。
【67题详解】
句意:人工智能正在学习如何自主变得有创造力。句子结构是“learn how to do sth.”其中to后接动词原形be,be作为系动词,后面要跟形容词构成“系表结构”,用来描述主语的状态或特征。creative是create的形容词形式,放在be后可以表达“(变得)有创造力的”这个状态,刚好契合“AI学习如何自主变得有创造力”的句意。故填creative。
【68题详解】
句意:如今,人工智能可以向人类学习知识,并且然后模仿人类的行为与思维方式。根据“and then copy human actions and thinking learn from”可知,前半部分是要表达“向人类学习”的意思,明确体现出“人工智能以人类为学习对象,借鉴人类的能力”这一逻辑,和后文“模仿人类行为与思维”的表述形成呼应。“向……学习”是固定搭配,对应的英文是“learn from”。故填from。
【69题详解】
句意:例如,人工智能可以安全地驾驶汽车。空格处是需要填入副词修饰动词drive,因此将形容词safe变为副词safely。故填safely 。
【70题详解】
句意:它甚至可以和人类棋手对弈并获胜。根据“win a game of chess”和“a human player”可知,本句是要表达人工智能和人类棋手对弈,“与……对抗/对弈”是固定搭配,对应的英文是“play against”,符合下棋的场景。故填against。
【71题详解】
句意:它模仿人类的学习方式,这让它能够理解创作音乐的艺术。本句是考查allow的用法,allow sb. to do sth.是固定搭配,意为“允许/使某人能够做某事”,表达“让AI能够理解创作音乐的艺术”,符合语境。故填to understand。
【72题详解】
句意:然后它创作出自己的古典旋律,并在几分钟内完成一首音乐。根据空格处后“own”的用法“own+形容词性物主代词”可知,空格处需要用形容词性物主代词,因此将主格it变为它的形容词的物主代词形式its(它的)。故填its。
【73题详解】
句意:一个AI作曲家已经注册为作曲家,它有一张专辑,也有自己的客户。空格处连接两个并列的谓语部分“has an album”和“has customers”,是递进关系所以用并列连词and表递进。故填and。
【74题详解】
句意:它的音乐作品可以在电影、电视广告和电子游戏中听到。空格处与TV ads、video games并列,ad和game都用了复数形式而且movie是可数名词,所以也要用复数形式movies,表泛指。故填movies。
【75题详解】
句意:AI作曲家可以学习创作不同类型的音乐。本句想表达“学习创作”意思,对应固定搭配“学习做某事”,英文为“learn to do sth.”,因此填不定式to make 。故填to make。

Many people think heirlooms (传家宝) are expensive things. However, Sara doesn’t think so. She has a few heirlooms. Anyone can buy them in a shop. However, they are special to her because they belonged to her grandmother.
After Sara’s grandmother died, her family chose something of hers to keep to remember her. As Sara lived far away, her mother picked things out for her—a tablecloth, a mirror, and an old pot. Sara kept these things, but she didn’t use them much. The tablecloth didn’t fit her tables. She didn’t like the color of the mirror frame (镜框), and the pot was too small and old.
Sara’s life changed when she read something in a book: Don’t keep anything in your house that you don’t find useful or beautiful. That’s right. “But what about sentimental (情感的) things like heirlooms? They’re beautiful if they remind us of good times with loved ones,” Sara thought.
Sara decided to give these things a fresh start. She painted the mirror frame a different color to go with her daughter’s room. Although Sara’s daughter never met her grandmother, they share a connection through the mirror. Sara bought a table to go with her grandmother’s tablecloth. She also started using her grandmother’s pot. Whenever she cooks with it, Sara thinks of her grandmother making bread long ago. These things, once forgotten, are useful again, bringing together old memories and new stories.
26. What does the underlined word “they” refer to?
A. Heirlooms. B. Gold. C. Silver. D. Expensive things.
27. Why did Sara hardly use her heirlooms?
A. Because they were too old. B. Because she liked modern things better.
C. Because they didn’t meet her needs or taste. D. Because they reminded her of her grandmother.
28 What made Sara change her attitude toward the heirlooms?
A. Advice from a friend. B. Words from a book. C. Her mother’s advice. D. Her daughter’s wish.
29. What can we infer from the text?
A. Sara used her heirlooms to save money. B. Sara didn’t find her heirlooms beautiful.
C. Sara will keep more old things at home. D. Old things have sentimental meaning for Sara.
30. What could be the best title for the text?
A. Old treasures, new stories. B. Sara’s love for DIY activities.
C. How to choose family heirlooms. D. The meaning of expensive heirlooms.
(C)
“A friend in need is a friend indeed.” Friends are important to us. Friends help us get through hard times. Friends also influence us a lot. Let’s enjoy two poems about friendship.
To Wang Lun
I, Li Bai, sit aboard a ship about to go,
When suddenly on shore your farewell songs overflow.
However deep the Lake of Peach Blossoms may be,
It is not so deep,
O Wang Lun! As your love for me.
A Time to Talk
By Robert Frost
When a friend calls to me from the road
And slows his horse to a meaning walk,
I don’t stand still and look around

Frost’s poem, on the other hand, tells the readers that we should stop what we are doing to talk with our friends. It tells us that nothing should get in the way of spending time with friends. The language is simple but sincere.

When I was small, my mom always told me, “I just want you to be happy.” But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?
Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on platforms like Weibo and Xiaohongshu can actually make you feel worse about your life. They mislead people into thinking that others are better off. ★ Also, a study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. .
But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever.
Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen!
March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽) — it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way.
36. How does the writer lead in the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By raising questions. B. By giving examples. C. By comparing facts. D. By listing numbers.
37. Which of the following can be put in ★ ?
A. In this way, people can know more about others
B. In fact social media use causes low spirits
C. Instead, people will take it seriously
D. In addition, social media opens people’s eyes
38. Which of the following best describes the change of people’s feelings in paragraph 3?
A B. C. D.
39. Which person below might get lasting happiness in life according to paragraph 4?
A. Ava uses social media for over two hours a day.
B. Bella usually shows off her life on Xiaohongshu.
C. Chris loves posting pictures on WeChat Moments.
D. David controls his emotions calmly when he’s angry.
40. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. The True Meaning of Social Media B. Happiness on Social Media C. The Search for True Happiness D. The Journey to World Happiness Day
