Tomorrow was her friend Netta’s birthday and she did not have a new dress. Her father’s mill (磨坊) had closed down and there was hardly any money left at home.

Suddenly she saw a lady get out of the car and walk towards the bank. The lady opened her purse to take out some papers and her wallet fell on the ground. Unaware of it, the lady went into the bank. Nupur ran and picked up the wallet and waited on the steps. After a long time the lady came out. Nupur handed her the wallet. The lady could not believe what she saw. The little girl had been waiting for her for so long to hand her the wallet, Looking at the girl’s dirty clothes, the lady asked something about her. Nupur told the lady that she was going home and her troubles. The lady looked at the dress that had stains (污渍) on it. She was the owner of a boutique  (时装店) that stitched (缝) clothes for children and young adults, “Come in the evening and collect your dress,” the lady told Nupur. In the evening, Nupur went to the boutique and was speechless to see her old dress look so beautiful. The stains were covered with patchwork. And the dress fit her perfectly. Nupur was overjoyed. “Ask your father to see me,” the lady smiled and said, “for I am sure the father of such an honest girl must be a very honest man, too.” Nupur wore the dress with the new look to her friend’s birthday party.

According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music helps develop certain language abilities in the brain. A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were found to be able to hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. For example, when the violinists play in a band, they must listen closely to what they are playing and ignore the other sounds. In this way, musicians can hear certain sounds better, even in a room with lots of noise. Gotfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Dr. Schlaug was surprised to use singing words to help his patients finally speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to be able to make different parts of the brain active, including the bad parts. In some way, this helps patients use those parts of the brain again. So music is not only enjoyable, but also good for us in many other ways. “Playing an instrument or singing,” says Nina Kraus, “can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older.” 63．What were the people asked to do in the study? A．Listen to different kinds of music. B．Make some noise in a room. C．Give some people musical training. D．Listen to a person talking in a noisy room. 64．What does the writer use the example of violinists to explain? A．How musicians play in a band. B．Why musicians have better hearing ability. C．How musicians make beautiful sounds. D．Why musicians are afraid of lots of noise. 65．What does the word “ignore” mean in the third paragraph? A．Listen to. B．Look at. C．Find out. D．Pay no attention to. 66．How did Gotfried Schlaug help his stroke patients speak? A．By playing music for them. B．By fixing the bad parts of their brains. C．By using singing words. D．By teaching them to play instruments. 67．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． 【答案】63．D 64．B 65．D 66．C 67．A 【导语】本文主要探讨了音乐与语言之间的联系，通过研究表明音乐有助于开发大脑中的某些语言能力，介绍了相关研究及例子来阐述音乐对听力、中风患者语言恢复等方面的积极作用。 63．细节理解题。根据“As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room.”可知，在这项研究中，人们被要求听一个人在嘈杂的房间里说话。故选D。 64．细节理解题。根据“The musicians were found to be able to hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds.”以及“For example, when the violinists play in a band...In this way, musicians can hear certain sounds better, even in a room with lots of noise.”可知，作者用小提琴手的例子来解释为什么音乐家有更好的听力能力。故选B。 65．词句猜测题。根据“when the violinists play in a band, they must listen closely to what they are playing and ignore the other sounds.”可知，当小提琴手在乐队中演奏时，他们必须仔细听自己演奏的内容，那么对于其他声音就应该是“不关注”，“ignore”意思是“Pay no attention to”。故选D。 66．细节理解题。根据“Dr. Schlaug was surprised to use singing words to help his patients finally speak.”可知，Gotfried Schlaug通过使用唱歌的词语来帮助他的中风患者说话。故选C。 67．篇章结构题。文章第一段提出音乐有助于开发大脑中的某些语言能力这一观点；第二、三段通过西北大学的研究及小提琴手的例子进行论证；第四段通过Gotfried Schlaug帮助中风患者说话的例子进一步论证；第五段总结音乐不仅令人愉快，在其他很多方面对我们也有好处。整体是总分总的结构，A选项符合。故选A。 D By using new drone-based lidar (无人机载激光雷达) technology, scientists have found the remains of ancient cities in the mountains of southeastern Uzbekistan. These cities sat near the ancient Silk Road. Before, many people didn’t think there were such great cities in these faraway mountains. This important discovery has made them think again. The ancient city of Tugunbulak covered nearly 300 acres (英亩) . It was one of the biggest places where people lived in that area at that time. About three miles away, there was another smaller city called Tashbulak. Both cities were built at heights of up to 7,200 feet above sea level (海平面). They showed a well-developed city layout (布局) and many buildings fit the mountain area well. The lidar pictures clearly show houses, public squares, and roads which were important for the people’s lives and work there long ago. In the past, big cities in high mountain areas were not common. The most famous ones—like Machu Picchu, Cusco, and Lhasa—are usually seen as special cases. They show how people can live in very hard conditions. But the place where Tashbulak and Tugunbulak were built may have been chosen to make use of strong mountain winds. The winds could help make high-temperature fires to smelt metal-rich rocks (熔炼富含金属的岩石). Franchetti, a researcher, says, “We need to study more, but we think a big part of the location’s purpose was to produce metal things. The ground gets hot from the sun during the day. Then the winds rise up the mountainsides. This is perfect for working with metal.” The researcher thinks people in Tugunbulak made a living by making metal things. They used the materials around them and were close to the Silk Road for trade. Franchetti says, “If we are right, mountain cities might not be so strange. They are part of a bigger and more complex (复杂的) story of ancient life, and change what we once thought was a simple picture of Central Asian history.” 68．What helped scientists find the remains of the ancient cities? A．Old maps. B．Local stories. C．Ground digging. D．A new technology. 69．What has been found about Tashbulak and Tugunbulak? A．They had amazing city plans. B．They had many strange buildings. C．They were left behind quickly after being built. D．They were built by people from different countries. 70．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A．Why Tashbulak and Tugunbulak were built in the mountains. B．How people in the past made metal things with hard work. C．The weather conditions in ancient Uzbekistan. D．The importance of the Silk Road in history. 71．Which of the following about the discovery will Franchetti probably agree with? A．It helps bring more tourists to Central Asia. B．It shows that living in mountain areas is easy. C．It changes people’s understanding of ancient trade. D．It makes people think differently about mountain cities. 72．In which part of a magazine can we find the passage? A．Travel and Guide. B．Health and Sports. C．Science and Discovery. D．Population and environment. 【答案】68．D 69．A 70．A 71．D 72．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了科学家利用无人机载激光雷达技术在乌兹别克斯坦东南部山区发现古城遗址，这些古城位于古丝绸之路附近，其先进的城市布局和建筑选址或与金属冶炼有关，该发现改变了人们对山区城市的看法。 68．细节理解题。根据第一段“By using new drone-based lidar technology, scientists have found the remains of ancient cities in the mountains of southeastern Uzbekistan.”可知，科学家们是利用新的无人机载激光雷达技术发现了这些古城遗址。故选D。 69．细节理解题。根据第二段“They showed a well-developed city layout and many buildings fit the mountain area well.”可知，Tashbulak和Tugunbulak这两座古城展示了先进的城市布局和许多适合山区的建筑。故选A。 70．主旨大意题。根据第四段“But the place where Tashbulak and Tugunbulak were built may have been chosen to make use of strong mountain winds. The winds could help make high-temperature fires to smelt metal-rich rocks.”以及后文内容可知，本段主要讨论了Tashbulak和Tugunbulak这两座古城建在山区的原因，即利用强风进行金属冶炼。故选A。 71．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Franchetti says, ‘If we are right, mountain cities might not be so strange. They are part of a bigger and more complex story of ancient life, and change what we once thought was a simple picture of Central Asian history.’”可知，Franchetti认为这一发现改变了人们对山区城市的看法，它们不再是那么奇怪，而是古代生活更大更复杂故事的一部分。故选D。 72．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，本文主要介绍了科学家利用新技术发现古城遗址的过程和意义，这属于科学发现类内容。因此，我们可以在杂志的“科学与发现”部分找到这篇文章。故选C。 第二节 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整。一空一句。 Greeting neighbors is good for you When it comes to being healthy, it is better to have friends. A new survey from the US supports the idea that people with strong social relationships live longer. The survey was carried out from May 30th to June 6th, 2025 and was based on the answers from 4,556 Americans. It covered social well-being, physical well-being, community well-being and more. 73 While people who greeted six neighbors had a score of 64.1. 74 In fact, regular greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being. It can bring you a sense of safety and connection. 75 Your physical well-being can improve if you are getting out and walking around your neighborhood. “We don’t require that you know the person well; just stop and talk to him,” said Dan Witters, the survey’s director. “But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.” 76 While this is just a survey for now, saying hello on a regular basis is a good way to improve your own well-being. 77 A．People who said they didn’t say hello to anyone in their neighborhood scored a 51.5. B．You will be more likely to speak to people if you think your community is safe. C．This simple habit can make your community a warmer place. D．You might think that saying hello to neighbors is only about social well-being, but that actually isn’t the case. E．For example, it helps you know more people around you. F．Therefore, the action of greeting is the first step to a friendly talk. G．So, why not give it a try and say hello to your neighbors today? 【答案】73．A 74．D 75．E 76．F 77．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了与邻居打招呼不仅有助于提升个人的社交、身体健康和社区幸福感，还能增强安全感与归属感，并建议人们养成主动问候的习惯，以促进社区温暖与自身健康。 73．根据“While people who greeted six neighbors had a score of 64.1.”可知，此处应对比不打招呼的邻居得分，选项A“那些说自己不和邻居打招呼的人得分是51.5。”符合语境，故选A。 74．根据“In fact, regular greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being.”可知，此处应先提出常见误解再转折，引出后文对多方面健康的影响，选项D“你可能认为和邻居打招呼只关乎社交幸福感，但事实并非如此。”符合语境，故选D。 75．根据“It can bring you a sense of safety and connection.”可知，前文说问候能带来“安全感和归属感”，此处需要举例说明这种好处的具体体现。选项E“例如，它能帮助你认识更多身边的人。”符合语境。故选E。 76．根据“But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.”可知，此处应总结打招呼是友好交谈的第一步，选项F“因此，打招呼的行为是友好交谈的第一步。”符合语境，故选F。 77．根据“While this is just a survey for now, saying hello on a regular basis is a good way to improve your own well-being.”可知，此处应呼吁读者尝试打招呼，选项G“那么，为什么不试试今天就和邻居打招呼呢？”符合语境，故选G。 五、补全对话（本大题共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 请阅读下面对话，根据对话内容从下面的七个选项中选择五个填入空白处，使对话通顺、合理，意思完整，并在答题卡上将其序号涂黑。一空一句。 (Mike is inviting his friend Lily to visit Jiangxi during the summer vacation.

A student got up and 30 , “Sir, to stop the car.” Another one said, “To reduce and control the speed of the car.” However, none of the 31 were the same as the teacher’s. Then he said, “I appreciate all of your answers. But in my opinion, the brakes in our cars make us be able to drive 32 ”. Listening to this, the whole class was silent because no one had 33 this answer. The teacher continued, “ 34 our cars had no brakes, then how fast would we be ready to drive our cars? It is the brakes in our cars that give us courage to drive our cars faster and reach our destination 35 .” Similarly there are many such brakes in our life. They seem to 36 us. For example, our parents may ask us about our 37 in life. Their questions and advice may be 38 as brakes that slow us down. But what if we see 39 as our supporters that can protect ourselves while taking risks. From time to time, we have to stop or even 40 so that we can take a big step. In fact, we should be 41 for brakes in life. Without these brakes we could lose 42 or get into danger. So we need to understand that brakes in our life don’t 43 to push us back. Instead, they help us move forward faster than before. 29．A．rest B．thought C．agreement D．surprise 30．A．asked B．replied C．wrote D．read 31．A．answers B．suggestions C．questions D．introductions 32．A．earlier B．harder C．worse D．faster 33．A．mentioned B．imagined C．wondered D．remembered 34．A．While B．Unless C．If D．Though 35．A．safely B．suddenly C．simply D．carefully 36．A．save B．stop C．protect D．push 37．A．pioneers B．licenses C．decisions D．instruments 38．A．found B．considered C．taught D．reported 39．A．it B．him C．you D．them 40．A．belong to B．grow up C．run away D．go back 41．A．natural B．thankful C．brave D．sorry 42．A．influence B．control C．weight D．pleasure 43．A．refuse B．promise C．forget D．mean 第二节 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后用方框中所给词的适当形式填空，并将答案填写到答题卡的相应位置。每个词限用一次。 excite   win   final   feelings   competitor   on   celebration   first   spirit   everything   although China’s women’s tennis player Zheng Qinwen has made her name in tennis history after 44 the country’s first singles (单打) Olympic gold medal in Paris on August 3rd, 2024. 45 Zheng was the 6th seed (种子选手) in the Olympic tournament (锦标赛), she beat Donna Vekic at the Roland Garros Stadium.

Her father’s mill (磨坊) had closed down and there was hardly any money left at home. Nupur decided to wear an old dress. “I will ask the tailor (裁缝) to increase the length,” Nupur said to herself. The tailor, however, refused to do so. Suddenly she saw a lady get out of the car and walk towards the bank. The lady opened her purse to take out some papers and her wallet fell on the ground. Unaware of it, the lady went into the bank. Nupur ran and picked up the wallet and waited on the steps. After a long time the lady came out. Nupur handed her the wallet. The lady could not believe what she saw. The little girl had been waiting for her for so long to hand her the wallet, Looking at the girl’s dirty clothes, the lady asked something about her. Nupur told the lady that she was going home and her troubles. The lady looked at the dress that had stains (污渍) on it. She was the owner of a boutique  (时装店) that stitched (缝) clothes for children and young adults, “Come in the evening and collect your dress,” the lady told Nupur. In the evening, Nupur went to the boutique and was speechless to see her old dress look so beautiful. The stains were covered with patchwork. And the dress fit her perfectly. Nupur was overjoyed. “Ask your father to see me,” the lady smiled and said, “for I am sure the father of such an honest girl must be a very honest man, too.” Nupur wore the dress with the new look to her friend’s birthday party.

C Is there a connection between music and language? According to recent studies, the answer is yes: Music helps develop certain language abilities in the brain. A study from Northwestern University shows that playing a musical instrument can improve a person’s hearing ability. As a part of the study, two groups of people listened to a person talking in a noisy room. The people in the first group were musicians, while those in the second group had no musical training. The musicians were found to be able to hear better because they learn to pay attention to certain sounds. For example, when the violinists play in a band, they must listen closely to what they are playing and ignore the other sounds. In this way, musicians can hear certain sounds better, even in a room with lots of noise. Gotfried Schlaug, a doctor at Harvard Medical School, works with stroke (中风) patients. Because of their illness, these people cannot say their names, addresses, or other information normally. However, they can still sing. Dr. Schlaug was surprised to use singing words to help his patients finally speak. Why does this work? Schlaug isn’t sure. Music seems to be able to make different parts of the brain active, including the bad parts. In some way, this helps patients use those parts of the brain again. So music is not only enjoyable, but also good for us in many other ways. “Playing an instrument or singing,” says Nina Kraus, “can help us do better in school and keep our brain sharp as we get older.” 63．What were the people asked to do in the study? A．Listen to different kinds of music. B．Make some noise in a room. C．Give some people musical training. D．Listen to a person talking in a noisy room. 64．What does the writer use the example of violinists to explain? A．How musicians play in a band. B．Why musicians have better hearing ability. C．How musicians make beautiful sounds. D．Why musicians are afraid of lots of noise. 65．What does the word “ignore” mean in the third paragraph? A．Listen to. B．Look at. C．Find out. D．Pay no attention to. 66．How did Gotfried Schlaug help his stroke patients speak? A．By playing music for them. B．By fixing the bad parts of their brains. C．By using singing words. D．By teaching them to play instruments. 67．Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A． B． C． D． D By using new drone-based lidar (无人机载激光雷达) technology, scientists have found the remains of ancient cities in the mountains of southeastern Uzbekistan. These cities sat near the ancient Silk Road. Before, many people didn’t think there were such great cities in these faraway mountains. This important discovery has made them think again. The ancient city of Tugunbulak covered nearly 300 acres (英亩) . It was one of the biggest places where people lived in that area at that time. About three miles away, there was another smaller city called Tashbulak. Both cities were built at heights of up to 7,200 feet above sea level (海平面). They showed a well-developed city layout (布局) and many buildings fit the mountain area well. The lidar pictures clearly show houses, public squares, and roads which were important for the people’s lives and work there long ago. In the past, big cities in high mountain areas were not common. The most famous ones—like Machu Picchu, Cusco, and Lhasa—are usually seen as special cases. They show how people can live in very hard conditions. But the place where Tashbulak and Tugunbulak were built may have been chosen to make use of strong mountain winds. The winds could help make high-temperature fires to smelt metal-rich rocks (熔炼富含金属的岩石). Franchetti, a researcher, says, “We need to study more, but we think a big part of the location’s purpose was to produce metal things. The ground gets hot from the sun during the day. Then the winds rise up the mountainsides. This is perfect for working with metal.” The researcher thinks people in Tugunbulak made a living by making metal things. They used the materials around them and were close to the Silk Road for trade. Franchetti says, “If we are right, mountain cities might not be so strange. They are part of a bigger and more complex (复杂的) story of ancient life, and change what we once thought was a simple picture of Central Asian history.” 68．What helped scientists find the remains of the ancient cities? A．Old maps. B．Local stories. C．Ground digging. D．A new technology. 69．What has been found about Tashbulak and Tugunbulak? A．They had amazing city plans. B．They had many strange buildings. C．They were left behind quickly after being built. D．They were built by people from different countries. 70．What does Paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A．Why Tashbulak and Tugunbulak were built in the mountains. B．How people in the past made metal things with hard work. C．The weather conditions in ancient Uzbekistan. D．The importance of the Silk Road in history. 71．Which of the following about the discovery will Franchetti probably agree with? A．It helps bring more tourists to Central Asia. B．It shows that living in mountain areas is easy. C．It changes people’s understanding of ancient trade. D．It makes people think differently about mountain cities. 72．In which part of a magazine can we find the passage? A．Travel and Guide. B．Health and Sports. C．Science and Discovery. D．Population and environment. 第二节 请先阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后根据短文内容从下面方框内的七个选项中选择五个还原到文中，使短文意思通顺、结构完整。一空一句。 Greeting neighbors is good for you When it comes to being healthy, it is better to have friends. A new survey from the US supports the idea that people with strong social relationships live longer. The survey was carried out from May 30th to June 6th, 2025 and was based on the answers from 4,556 Americans. It covered social well-being, physical well-being, community well-being and more. 73 While people who greeted six neighbors had a score of 64.1. 74 In fact, regular greetings also improve a person’s physical well-being and community well-being. It can bring you a sense of safety and connection. 75 Your physical well-being can improve if you are getting out and walking around your neighborhood. “We don’t require that you know the person well; just stop and talk to him,” said Dan Witters, the survey’s director. “But the more people to whom you say hello, the greater the probability is that you’re actually going to start a conversation with them.” 76 While this is just a survey for now, saying hello on a regular basis is a good way to improve your own well-being. 77 A．People who said they didn’t say hello to anyone in their neighborhood scored a 51.5. B．You will be more likely to speak to people if you think your community is safe. C．This simple habit can make your community a warmer place. D．You might think that saying hello to neighbors is only about social well-being, but that actually isn’t the case. E．For example, it helps you know more people around you. F．Therefore, the action of greeting is the first step to a friendly talk.
