This new game was 37 out of necessity. 38 with his sugarcane harvest, Tong had no time to take care of his radish fields, which soon became overrun with worms. 39 panicking, he invited the public to help him “save” the crops by catching the pests! The rules were simple: children under 12 catching 5 worms received a free radish, 40 adults paid 9.9 yuan to fill a bag. During the recent New Year holiday, thousands of families joined in the fun together: children 41 the worm-catching like a treasure hunt, while parents enjoyed harvesting fresh vegetables.

He yawned and picked it up. “Hello?” he said. “I’ll take the case. I will leave and meet you at once.” Drake took his umbrella, which was suitable for the rain outside, and walked out into the noisy city. The case Drake hurried to the police station. “We’ve been getting unfinished maths problems in the mail,” the Chief said. “They’re signed ‘Guessss Who?’. Every day the number of letters increases. We keep getting more. They are blocking the mail room.” Drake looked at the paper in the Chief’s hand. He looked at one letter’s clue carefully： □+32=51 Guessss Who? Gathering Clues “The word ‘guessss’ isn’t spelled right,” Drake said thoughtfully. “Give me the clues, Chief,” he said. “And if someone asks you, say that I’ve advised you not to discuss the case.” Drake took the clues and went back to his office. First, he filled in the missing numbers. Then, he wrote the numbers in a notebook： 1 1 5 5 8 10 11 11 14 19 20 “Is it a code (代码)?” he thought. “Maybe it’s an alphabet (字母) code!” Drake shouted. When he matched the numbers to the letters of the alphabet, this is what he had： A A E E H J K K N S T Case solved! “This doesn’t make sense ,” he said, disappointed and discouraged. He kept moving the letters around. Finally, he had it：JAKE THE ______. Drake called the Chief. “That, Jake, is your man.” “I knew I was right to call you and could always count on you!” said the Chief. 45. Which of the following is an important clue in this case? A. The alphabet. B. The word “Guessss” on the letter. C. The Chief’s words. D. A notebook. 46. Which best fits the blank? A. SNAKE B. SNEEK C. SNAKES D. SNEAKS 47. What will the Chief probably do? A. He will write a report to end the case. B. He will look for more clues. C. He will question Jake. D. He will arrest Jake. B We can see circles, squares and triangles everywhere in our daily life. Have you thought about their meanings in films? Much like colors, different shapes can show different features of characters in the scenes. Circles represent things that are soft and natural. The round shape reminds us of things that appear in nature, like the sun, raindrops and so on. We can also connect circles with beautiful eyes, babies' round faces... All these things make us feel happy and warm. This is why so many cartoon characters' bodies—heroes, good people—are round in shape, because circles represent goodness, happiness and friendliness. Squares show things that are unnatural or man-made, or things that are boring or old-fashioned. For example, in the cartoon film Up, Carl has a square face and wears square glasses, while Russell, an 8-year-old boy with a round face, always wears round medals. These shapes show the characters' personalities. Carl is stubborn and lonely, while Russell is lovely and full of energy. ______ Every kid who draws a monster with sharp teeth draws a row of triangles, don't they? That's because the shape represents fear, distrust and doubt in some way. Look at the bad guys in cartoons—they are all drawn with plenty of points and triangles, like Shengongbao in Ne Zha. And triangles are stable(稳固的)and don't easily fall down. In films, this feature makes bad people difficult to deal with. Not only in cartoons, but also in other kinds of films, different shapes are used for the same purpose. So, try to find the hidden shapes and you will know what the characters are like. 48. According to Paragraph 2, which of the following cartoon character will probably make people feel warm? 49. What does the underlined word "stubborn" mean in Paragraph 3? A. Accept new things. B. Get along well with others. C. Follow new fashion. D. Refuse to change. 50. Why is Shengongbao mentioned in Paragraph 4? A. To introduce him. B. To make kids afraid. C. To prove him maybe a bad person. D. To show the difficulties to deal with him. 51. Which sentence is the best for ______ in paragraph 4? A. The angriest shape is the triangle. B. Circles can be seen everywhere. C. All shapes have one thing in common. D. People feel warm when they see things in triangles. C Police Superintendent Otchumyelov was walking across the market square in a new overcoat, with a small package under his arm. A red-haired policeman followed him, carrying a sieve full of confiscated gooseberries. The square was silent; not a soul was to be seen. The open doors of the shops and taverns stared out disconsolately (无精打采地) like hungry mouths; not even a beggar was near them. Suddenly Otchumyelov heard a shout: “Don’t let it go! It’s bitten someone! Hold it fast!” There was the yelping (犬吠) of a dog. Otchumyelov looked in the direction of the sound and saw a white puppy with a yellow patch on its back running out of Pitchugin’s timber-yard, hopping on three legs and looking back. A man in a starched cotton shirt, with his waistcoat unbuttoned, was chasing it. He threw himself forward, fell down, and seized the dog by the hind legs. “It’s a row, your honour,” said the policeman. Otchumyelov walked towards the crowd. He saw Hryukin the goldsmith holding up a bleeding finger, his face furious (暴怒的). The puppy sat trembling in the middle of the crowd, its eyes full of misery (痛苦) and terror. “What’s this about?” asked Otchumyelov. “I was walking along, your honour,” Hryukin began, “when this brute (畜生) bit my finger for no reason! I’m a working man—this finger’s my livelihood! I want damages(赔偿金)!” “H’m, very good,” said Otchumyelov sternly. “I’ll not let this pass! Find out whose dog it is, and let the owner pay! The dog must be destroyed!” “But it’s General Zhigalov’s dog, sir,” someone in the crowd said. “General Zhigalov’s?” Otchumyelov’s tone changed at once. He took off his overcoat. “It’s hot today! Why, the dog’s too small to bite your finger, Hryukin! You must have pricked it on a nail, and want to get money out of someone!” “The general’s dogs are all big hounds (猎犬) ,” the policeman said. “This isn’t his.” “Then it’s a stray (流浪狗) !” Otchumyelov snapped again. “A worthless cur! Destroy it at once! We’ll teach its owner a lesson!” “But it might be the general’s,” the policeman said doubtfully. “Oh!” Otchumyelov put his overcoat on again. “It’s turned cold! Take the dog to the general’s house, and ask if it’s his. Tell them to keep it indoors—such a fine dog shouldn’t be teased (逗弄) !” Just then the general’s cook arrived. “It’s not the general’s dog,” he said. “Then it’s a stray!” cried Otchumyelov. “Kill it!” “It’s the general’s brother’s dog,” the cook added. Otchumyelov’s face lit up with a smile. “What a clever little dog! It bit you well, Hryukin! Take it away, good dog!” He turned to Hryukin, scowling: “I’ll deal with you later!” And he wrapped his overcoat round him and walked away, while the crowd laughed at Hryukin. 52. Why do the onlookers not sympathize with Khryukin but laugh at him? A. Khryukin looks silly and talks loudly, making onlookers laugh naturally. B. Onlookers fear the general’s power and worry about getting unnecessary trouble. C. Khryukin wants money in a wrong way, and his selfish idea is seen through easily. D. Onlookers think a dog bite is small and Khryukin is making too much noise 53. What technique (技巧) highlights Ochumyelov’s character? A. It uses symbolism to show his arrogant and rude trait of bullying the weak. B. It uses satire to show Ochumyelov’s changeable attitude in different cases. C. It uses comparation to show his violent and impulsive trait of acting freely. D. It uses foreshadowing to show his greedy and selfish trait of seeking gains. 54. What is the main theme of the text? A. It praises onlookers’ justice and their courage to show social ugliness. B. It criticizes Khryukin’s greedy trait of trying to get money in all ways. C. It mocks hypocritical officials and shows the dark side of the society. D. It commends the cook’s honest trait of telling truth and judging rightly. 55. Which is the best title for the text? A. The Fox B. The Snake C. The Chameleon D. The Wolf D ①BCI (Brain-Computer Interface) acts as a "digital bridge" for the nervous system, bypassing damaged neural pathways to connect the brain and muscles —critical for patients with spinal cord injuries or ALS, as it captures (捕捉) brain signals, decodes them, and controls external devices. Professor Qi Yan calls BCI a "bridge" rather than sci-fi, noting its real-world influence in regaining movement and communication for those with neurological damage. ②China’s BCI research, though younger than America’s, advances rapidly due to unique infrastructure and population scale. The country’s BCI devices stand out for high precision and low invasiveness: a 2025 device with 64 electrodes is just 1/5 the width of a human hair, among the smallest and least invasive (侵入性) globally. The first male recipient of a BCI implant (植入) even played racing games independently, and other breakthroughs (突破) include chip implants in the dura mater for exact signal capture, with the first patient receiving this device in 2023 and regaining independent eating/drinking by late 2024. ③For patients like Lu Sheng’s ALS-afflicted wife (bedridden for over 10 years), BCI represents hope—she could potentially use it to eat, drink, or use the bathroom alone. Many patients learn about BCI via media; one case at Xuanwu Hospital saw a patient hold a cup independently two years post-implant. Yet clinical application (临床应用) faces difficulties: strict screening (only 1 in 800 screened patients qualify for trials), surgical risks (infection, chip lifespan), and heavy financial burdens (trial costs + lifelong medication exceed ¥80,000 annually). Families also grapple with ethical dilemmas (伦理困境) , as surgery adds care burdens (负担) even if the patient agrees. ④Currently, BCI has limited clinical success in China, with "success cases" remaining in trials. In July 2024, a Shanghai patient with 256 electrodes controlled a wheelchair and communicated in Mandarin at 100 words/minute via BCI— a milestone, but Wang, a nursing home patient waiting for trials, still faces delays from weather and equipment issues. Despite challenges, patients and families remain hopeful: "Even if it’s not my turn, I’m willing to wait," says one. 56. The author uses many patient cases in the passage. What is the main effect of this writing technique? A. Shows BCI’s practical effects clearly. B. Explains BCI’s working principle simply. C. Describes BCI’s research history briefly. D. Introduces BCI’s future plans directly. 57. What does the sentence "Even if it’s not my turn, I’m willing to wait" imply? A. Patients believe BCI can bring hope. B. Patients want to get free BCI treatment. C. Patients need more time to prepare for trials. D. Patients hope to be the first trial group. 58. What will the author most probably write in the next paragraph? A. Ways to solve BCI’s clinical problems. B. More successful BCI cases in foreign countries. C. Stories of patients refusing BCI treatment. D. Differences between China’s and US’ BCI. 59. Which structure does the passage mainly follow? A. ①②/③④. B. ①/②③/④. C. ①②/③/④. D. ①/②/③/④. Ⅴ. 口语运用。（每小题2分，共10分） 阅读下面对话，从7个选项中选择5个恰当的句子完成此对话，并把答题卡上对应题目的答案标号涂黑。 Tom: Lucy, I just read an article about the 2025 Top 10 Buzzwords! 60 Lucy: Wow, really? Let me have a look.

Have you ever thought about how these things can actually be put to good use? Nothing is a waste if you have a creative mind. You have probably never heard of Amy Hayes, but she is a most unusual woman. She lives in a house in the UK that she built herself out of rubbish. The windows and doors come from old buildings around her town that were pulled down. The top of the house is an old boat turned upside down. And the gate in front of her house is made of rocks and old glass bottles. Amy recently won a prize from the Help Save Our Planet Society. The president said, “Amy is an inspiration to us all.” Amy isn’t the only one who is good at recycling. Jessica Wong from Hong Kong, China uses old clothes that people don’t wear anymore to make bags. She has been doing this for a few years now. She opened a small shop where she sells her bags, and she has also set up a website to sell them online. She especially likes to use old jeans to make handbags. Her bags are cute and useful. “I plan to write a book about new ways to use old clothes,” she said. “I hope people can read my book and enjoy it!” Wang Tao set up a small business in Shanghai four years ago. He is known for using iron and other materials from old cars to make beautiful art pieces. Some are large pieces that look like animals or humans, and some are smaller pieces you can put at home. The more popular works can even be seen in art shops around the city. Wang Tao hopes to set up a “metal art” theme park to show people the importance of environmental protection. Not only can the art bring happiness to others, but it also shows that even cold, hard iron can be brought back to life with a little creativity. Interviewer: Jason and Susan, what are your ideas for solving these problems? Jason: Well, to cut down air pollution, we should take the bus or subway instead of driving. Susan: Yeah, or ride a bike. There are other advantages of bike riding. It’s good for health and it doesn’t cost anything! Interviewer: Great ideas! What about waste pollution? Susan: Mmm, I think simple things like bringing a bag to go shopping can help. I started doing that a year ago. Jason: Me, too. Also, I never take wooden chopsticks or plastic forks when I buy takeaway food. I use the ones at home. Susan: 68. ________________ _________________________ Interviewer: So together, our actions can make a difference and lead to a better future! 65. Is Amy Hayes' house built with new materials from a shop? ___________________________________________________________________________ 66. What materials does Wang Tao use to make art pieces? ___________________________________________________________________________ 67. What are the same characteristics of Amy Hayes, Jessica Wong, Wang Tao, Jason and Susan? ___________________________________________________________________________ 68.

So I write this letter to share some ways to get through it and hope it can help you out. First, self-adjustment is the first step when you feel lost in study. When you’re tired of doing exercises or can’t understand knowledge points, take a short break to listen to music or walk outside—this can calm your mind down. And you must summarize what you’ve learned in time; sorting out wrong questions can help you avoid making the same mistakes again. Besides self-adjustment, don’t be afraid to ask for help. When you can’t work out a problem after thinking for a long time, turn to your teachers or us parents. We’re always here to listen to your troubles and give you useful suggestions. There’s no shame in seeking help—it’s a smart way to solve problems quickly. What’s more, you have to believe in yourself deeply. Everyone meets study bottlenecks, and it’s just a small test in your learning journey. As long as you keep your heart firm and keep trying, you’ll surely break through the bottleneck and make progress. My dear son, no matter how hard the study is, remember that you’re not alone. I believe you can adjust yourself well and get back on the right track soon. Lots of love, Mom This is a letter from a mother to her son.
