【答案】17. A 18. C 19. B 20. A
【解析】
【原文】M: Hi, everyone. I’m Darren Biggs, a travel blogger from the USA. I’d love to share my story with you. So, how I decided to become a travel blogger? I wanted a job that would give me something to look forward to every day. And I realized I was spending less and less time doing the things I truly enjoyed, like writing and travelling. So becoming a blogger and writing about my travels made complete sense. Then how did I pick where to go first? Well, unlike my usual picks like Paris or London, I chose Hainan in China as my first place to go. And it was amazing!
Now you might be wondering how I support myself. Some bloggers focus on hiking, which requires proper clothing, and get paid for recommending clothes in their posts. I thought about teaching English, but I didn’t have much time. Luckily, I landed a deal with a company that was interested in the pictures I took on my travels.
During the journey, I have met people living in tough conditions who never give up, and it’s shown me the importance of keeping up. Through my blogs, I hope I’ve opened people’s eyes to the beauty of our world.
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分40分)
第一节(共 11小题;每小题2.5分,满分27.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Growing up in Damascus in Syria, Yusra dreamed of competing at the Olympics. She re-members watching the games with her father, who was a professional swimmer, and began training when she was 9. But after the civil war broke out when she was just 13, her life changed dramatically.“Our house was destroyed, so we had to live with my grandma,” she says.“We went to school, but it was dangerous; it was the same with swimming.”
After four years of living in fear of attacks, she and her older sister Sara made the difficult decision to flee in search of safety in Europe. They traveled to Turkey first. They then continued onto Germany, which became Yusra and Sara’s second home, although it took some time for it to feel like it. “The one thing that made me feel at home was swimming,” says Yusra.
She began training at a club, applying her determination and resilience (坚韧) to the sport she loved, and the next year, she was selected to compete at the Rio Olympics as part of the first ever refugee (难民) Olympic Team.
Competing on the world stage alongside athletes from all other countries, she realized that she was representing others like her — those who were forced to live beyond borders. From that moment, she has worked tirelessly to share her story, and those of so many others, to bring greater visibility to the dangers they have faced.
Yusra will launch a foundation to provide refugees around the globe with access to education and sport. She is also currently studying film and TV production in Los Angeles. Swimming remains her cornerstone, the true constant in her life. “Swimming has taught me a lot: it taught me to try again. If you’ re going through something tough, it doesn’t mean that it is over,” Yusra says.
21. What role does swimming play in Yusra’s life?
A. It keeps her engaged in sports.
B. It gives her a sense of security.
C. It is a means of gaining recognition.
D. It offers a brief escape from reality.
22. What did Yusra realize after participating in the Rio Olympics?
A. She had made a big achievement.
B. She had to search for her identity.
C. She could voice for the displaced.
D. She should befriend other athletes.
23. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
B. One good turn deserves another.
C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D. Action speaks louder than words.
【答案】21. B 22. C 23. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了叙利亚女孩Yusra在战乱中坚持游泳梦想,历经逃亡后成为难民奥运选手,并致力于通过体育和教育帮助全球难民的故事。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The one thing that made me feel at home was swimming,” says Yusra.(“唯一让我感到像在家一样的是游泳,”Yusra说)”和最后一段中“Swimming remains her cornerstone, the true constant in her life. (游泳仍然是她的基石,是她生活中真正不变的事物)”可知,游泳在Yusra的生命中扮演了提供安全感的角色,使她在动荡环境中找到归属与稳定。故选B项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Competing on the world stage alongside athletes from all other countries, she realized that she was representing others like her — those who were forced to live beyond borders. From that moment, she has worked tirelessly to share her story... (在与其他国家的运动员同台竞技时,她意识到自己代表着像她一样的人——那些被迫生活在边境之外的人。从那一刻起,她不知疲倦地分享自己的故事……)”可知,Yusra在里约奥运会后意识到自己可以为难民群体发声,成为流离失所者的代言人。故选C项。
【23题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,根据第一段中“Growing up in Damascus in Syria, Yusra dreamed of competing at the Olympics. (在叙利亚大马士革长大的Yusra梦想着参加奥运会)”、第三段中“She began training at a club, applying her determination and resilience (坚韧) to the sport she loved, and the next year, she was selected to compete at the Rio Olympics as part of the first ever refugee (难民) Olympic Team. (她开始在俱乐部训练,将决心和坚韧应用于她热爱的运动,第二年,她被选入首个难民奥运代表队参加里约奥运会)”和最后一段“Yusra will launch a foundation to provide refugees around the globe with access to education and sport. She is also currently studying film and TV production in Los Angeles. Swimming remains her cornerstone, the true constant in her life. “Swimming has taught me a lot: it taught me to try again. If you’ re going through something tough, it doesn’t mean that it is over,” Yusra says. (Yusra将成立一个基金会,为全球难民提供接受教育和参与体育活动的机会。目前她还在洛杉矶攻读电影与电视制作专业。游泳依然是她的基石,是她生命中真正不变的恒常。“游泳教会我很多:它教会我再次尝试。如果你正在经历艰难时刻,并不意味着一切都结束了,”Yusra说道)”可知,Yusra在战乱中坚持梦想,克服家园被毁、逃亡艰险等重重困难,最终实现奥运梦想并反哺难民群体,其经历贯穿“坚定意志促成目标实现”的核心逻辑,完美诠释“有志者事竟成”的哲理。故选A项。
B
We’ve all been there: in a lift, looking through phones to avoid eye contact; in a bank line, staring at the floor as silence stretches awkwardly; or on a plane, holding devices like shields (屏障) from the stranger next to us. It’s a common modern habit — but beneath this a voidance lies a problem. Maybe we’ve lost some ability to talk to others: our skill at starting chats has faded from choosing phones over talking for years. More likely, we just avoid starting a chat — it feels awkward to break silence, hard to find words, or unnecessary when we can hide behind phones. But next time you’re around strangers, pause: small talk is worth the discomfort. Experts call it a valuable social habit that brings easy-to-miss benefits.
It’s easy to ignore small talk and regard it as something unimportant, but we forget:deep relationships — romantic, professional, or friendly — would never start without casual chats first. Small talk is like oil for socializing, says Bernardo Carducci, head of Indiana University Southeast’s Shyness Research Institute. “Nearly every great love story starts with a silly weather comment in a cafe, and big business deals begin with casual pre-meeting chats about trends,” he explains. “Good small talk isn’t just exchanging words — it’s connecting,showing real interest, not just going through the motions. Asking a barista (咖啡师) ‘How’s your busiest shift?’ instead of ‘A latte, please.’ turns an order into a tiny human link.”
In a study, UBC psychology teacher Elizabeth Dunn tested customers at a local café. One group talked to waiters — asking about their day, commenting on new cakes, joking a-bout long lines. The other only spoke when needed: just ordering and thanking. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. “It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,” say Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”
Dunn thinks reaching out to strangers can boost our sense of belonging — a quiet bond that eases loneliness. Carducci agrees: this connection starts with small chats. “Small talk is good manners’ base,” he says. “Nice day, isn’t it?” to a bus stop stranger, or “I love your necklace — where did you get it?” to a coworker, doesn’t just fill silence. It builds respect,eases tension, and reminds us we’re all just people wanting a little connection.”
24. What phenomenon (现象) is described in the first paragraph?
A. Addiction to using smartphones.
B. Impatience with inefficient service.
C. Inappropriate behaviour in public places.
D. Absence of communication between strangers.
25. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?
A. Showing good manners.
B. Connecting with other people.
C. Focusing on a topic.
D. Making business deals.
26 What does the coffee shop study suggest about small talk?
A. It improves family relationships. B. It develops people’s thinking ability.
C. It matters as much as formal talk. D. It makes people pretty good.
27. What does the underlined word “boost” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Reduce. B. Maintain.
C. Strengthen. D. Reflect.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. D 27. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章论述了现代社会中人们避免与陌生人交流的现象,并强调了闲聊的价值与益处。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“We’ve all been there: in a lift, looking through phones to avoid eye contact; in a bank line, staring at the floor as silence stretches awkwardly; or on a plane, holding devices like shields (屏障) from the stranger next to us. (我们都经历过这样的事:在电梯里,看着手机以避免眼神交流;在银行排队时,盯着地板,沉默尴尬地蔓延;或者在飞机上,拿着设备,像盾牌一样挡住旁边的陌生人)”可知,第一段描述的是陌生人之间缺乏沟通的现象。故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It’s easy to ignore small talk and regard it as something unimportant, but we forget: deep relationships — romantic, professional, or friendly — would never start without casual chats first. Small talk is like oil for socializing, says Bernardo Carducci, head of Indiana University Southeast’s Shyness Research Institute. (人们很容易忽视闲聊,把它当作不重要的事情,但我们忘记了:如果没有闲聊,深厚的关系——浪漫、专业或友好的关系——就永远不会开始。印第安纳大学东南部害羞研究所所长Bernardo Carducci说,闲聊就像社交的润滑油)”以及“Good small talk isn’t just exchanging words — it’s connecting,showing real interest, not just going through the motions.(好的闲聊不仅仅是交流,而是建立联系,表现出真正的兴趣,而不仅仅是走过场)”可知,Carducci认为成功的闲聊的关键在于与他人建立联结。故选B项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. (结果显示,那些与服务员聊天的人报告了更高的积极情绪和更好的咖啡店体验)”以及“But interactions with peripheral (边缘的) members of our social network matter for our well-being also. (但是,与我们社交网络中的边缘成员的互动对我们的幸福也很重要)”可知,闲聊能让人们感觉更愉悦。故选D项。
【27题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段“Dunn thinks reaching out to strangers can boost our sense of belonging — a quiet bond that eases loneliness. (Dunn认为,与陌生人接触可以boost我们的归属感——一种缓解孤独的安静纽带)”可知,与陌生人接触可以缓解孤独,说明与陌生人接触可以增强我们的归属感,所以boost意为“增强”,与Strengthen意义相近。故选C项。
C
Imagine staying in the icy wilderness of Antarctica, cut off from the rest of the world, with only a small group of scientists. Such a group might be expected to develop a culture of its own, but would that develop a new shared accent?
As part of the project to explain the spoken accent development, a group of researchers led by Jonathan Harrington, professor of phonetics and speech processing at the Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich, started the study. The researchers studied a group of 11 scientists spending six months on an island just west of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The scientists were from several countries, including the US, the UK, Iceland and Germany. As part of the study, they had to record themselves reading a list of vocabularies from a computer screen every few weeks. The list included words with vowel (元音) sounds /i:/, /u:/ and / əʊ/ that have been found to change over time in different English accents.
The recordings were then sent to researchers. When the recordings were studied, the researchers found that the pronunciation of words with an /əʊ/ sound— such as “flow,”“code” and “sew”— had changed a little over the six months. The scientists began to pronounce it more toward the front of their mouths than toward the back. (British pronunciations are already typically fronter than American /əʊ/.)
The researchers believe it shows the development of a new accent among the scientists. Harrington said, “When we speak to each other, we remember that speech, and then that has an influence on our own speech production.”
While only small changes were recorded, the researchers believe the experiment helps to explain how different accents are created among enclosed (封闭的) communities — and may help us know why American and British English have developed as they have.
28. What were the scientists expected to do during the study?
A. Tell stories. B. Show pictures.
C. Make sentences. D. Read and record words.
29. Which word’s pronunciation may change in the enclosed community in the study?
A. show. B. sheep.
C. tube. D. adult.
30. Which of the following do the researchers agree with concerning the finding?
A. It proves life in Antarctica is difficult.
B. It uncovers the connection of vowel sounds.
C. It helps build communications among people with different accents.
D. It may explain American and British English’s development.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Different Accents Around the World.
B. The Development of English Language.
C. Does a New Accent Form Among Enclosed Communities?
D. What Would Scientists’ Daily Life Be Like in Antarctica?
【答案】28. D 29. A 30. D 31. C
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项关于封闭社区中口音形成的研究,探讨了新口音形成的可能性及其对理解英美口音差异的意义。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段第二句“As part of the study, they had to record themselves reading a list of vocabularies from a computer screen every few weeks. (作为研究的一部分,他们必须每隔几周录制自己从电脑屏幕上朗读词汇表的情况。)”可知,这些科学家需要在研究进行期间朗读并录制朗读情况。故选D项。
29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段第二句“When the recordings were studied, the researchers found that the pronunciation of words with an /əʊ/ sound— such as “flow” , “code” and “sew”— had changed a little over the six months. (研究录音后发现在六个月内,带有/əʊ/音素的单词——如“flow”,“code”和“sew”——发音发生了一些变化。)”可知,在研究过程中发音发生变化的单词是含有/əʊ/音素的词。选项A中“show”一词的元音音素为/əʊ/。故选A项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“While only small changes were recorded, the researchers believe the experiment helps to explain how different accents are created among enclosed communities — and may help us know why American and British English have developed as they have. (尽管记录到的变化很小,但研究人员认为这个实验有助于解释封闭社区中不同口音是如何形成的——也可能帮助我们理解美国英语和英国英语为何会发展成现在的样子。)”可知,研究人员认为这一发现有助于解释英式英语和美式英语的发展差异。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。文章第一段以设问方式引出话题:在封闭的南极洲科学家群体中是否会形成新的口音,第二、三段介绍研究过程,第四、五段介绍研究的发现,第六段指出其意义。全文围绕“封闭社区中是否会形成新口音”展开论述。选项C“封闭社区中会形成新口音吗?”以问句形式概括全文核心问题,与文章结构及内容吻合。故选C项。

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Have you ever woken up at midnight with upsetting thoughts? Maybe you argued with your partner. Perhaps you are worrying about an interview. These are common in our life. ____32____ And thus we may lose sleep and have trouble concentrating. The following methods are helpful.
Learn to practice mindful awareness.
This method has the benefit of revealing the temporary nature of your thoughts. ____33____ There are many mindfulness practices that might help with this. For example, a simple breath meditation(冥想)may do the trick. Thoughts can still come into your head as you practice this.
____34____

If we’re ruminating over things, we may need to focus on better things. We can take a break from social media and practice gratitude for the good in our lives. We can also take action with like-minded people. ____35____
Talk to a trusted person or maybe a therapist.
We can turn to others for help. Whether they do it with humor or by offering wisdom, sometimes getting an outsider’s viewpoint can help us a lot. ____36____ If we don’t have such kind of people, seeing a therapist might be our best option.
A. Do some indoor activities.
B. Try to move preferably outside.
C. But they can make it hard to see reality as it is.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中医针灸的历史以及原理。
【52题详解】
考查主谓一致和动词时态。句意:几千年来,中国人一直用针灸来缓解疼痛和治疗疾病。根据上文For thousands of years可知,此处应用现在完成时,或使用现在完成进行时强调动作一直正在进行,主语为Chinese,助动词用have。故填have used/have been using。
【53题详解】
考查名词。句意:从发现在身体表面的特定点上使用石器针可以消除疼痛和疾病开始,针灸已成为中医的重要组成部分,符合促进人与自然和谐共处的哲学。空格前有定冠词the,定冠词后需接名词,因此要把提示词discover变为名词形式discovery,作宾语。故填discovery。
【54题详解】
考查名词。句意同上。空处作介词of的宾语,应用名词human的复数形式humans,泛指“人类”。故填humans。
【55题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:正如司马迁在大约2100年前的《史记》中所记载的那样,战国时期(公元前475-221年)的一位技艺高超的医生扁鹊,因在一次事故后用针刺王子的头部帮助王子“苏醒”而闻名。空处作非谓语动词,note与逻辑主语之间是被动关系,应用过去分词作状语,表示“被记载”。故填noted。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意同上。空处修饰名词physician,表示泛指“一位技艺高超的医生”,应用不定冠词,且highly的发音以辅音音素开头,应用a。故填a。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:根据中医的说法,人体有十二条经络,气或生命能量在这些经络中运动,帮助保持器官健康。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词meridians,关系词在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。故填where。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意:感冒、感染或疾病都会导致这种能量的阻塞,所以刺激穴位可以疏通“堵塞”的气,恢复正常的血液流动,改善健康。lead to为固定短语,表示“导致”。故填to。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。此处作句子的主语,应用动名词形式,表示经常性、习惯性的动作。故填piercing。
【60题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:2010年,中医针灸被联合国教科文组织列入《人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录》。根据上文In 2010可知,此处应用一般过去时,表示过去发生的动作。故填included。
【61题详解】
考查副词。句意:然而,这种做法不仅仅是文化和历史传承——它也是一种今天被广泛使用和研究的医疗技术。空处修饰动词used,应用副词widely,表示“广泛地”。故填widely。

63. ________(individual) and creativity are obviously the most important in class. (所给词的适当形式填空)
【答案】Individuality
【解析】
【详解】考查名词。句意:个性和创造力显然是课堂上最重要的。空处与名词creativity并列,应用名词individuality,表示“个性”,作句子主语,置于句首,首字母大写。故填Individuality。
64. He treated them ________ lunch to show thanks to them. (用适当的词填空)

【答案】Dear Jim,
Hearing that you often come across new words in your English study and you are in a dilemma when choosing between an electronic translation pen and a paper dictionary, I’d like to recommend the former to you.
Reasons are as follows. For one thing, an electronic translation pen is extremely time-saving. When you encounter unknown words while reading or listening, you can get accurate translations instantly by scanning them, which won’t break your learning pace. For another, an electronic translation pen is portable and multifunctional. You can carry it with you anywhere, and most pens offer extra useful features like standard pronunciation guides, typical example sentences and even offline usage.
Hope my suggestion works for you and wish you great progress in your English study.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
Dear Jim,
Hearing that you’re always stuck with unfamiliar words in English learning and can’t make up your mind between an electronic translation pen and a paper dictionary, I’m writing to recommend the latter to you.
Two reasons account for my suggestion. For one thing, a paper dictionary offers far more thorough details, like word roots, collocations and practical examples, enabling you to grasp the true meaning of words deeply. For another,the process of looking up words in it helps you concentrate better and leaves a deeper impression in your mind, which is beneficial to long-term memory.
Hope my advice is helpful to you and wish you remarkable progress in your English study.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

第二节 (满分25分)
73. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was in Philadelphia for a conference when I saw an ad in the hotel. A nearby theater was showing a documentary about several local animal shelters that were helping to save abandoned dogs across the country. I love animals, and I felt an urge to go to this fundraising (募捐) event. However, none of my co-workers would go with me, and I was worried about walking on the street alone at night.
I ended up spending the evening in my hotel room, but as soon as I got back to my room I felt restless and bored. The theater where the event was taking place was only about five blocks from the hotel, and the area around the hotel didn’t seem particularly dangerous. So, I decided to go for it. I gathered up my wallet and room key and set off.
It was already getting dark and the streets were almost empty. I managed to find the street the theater was on, but when I turned the corner, I stopped in shock. In front of the theater were a group of bikers — clustered around their heavy motorcycles. They were all large men dressed in leather vests. One in particular, a mountain of a man with a thick beard and a scar above his eyebrow, was laughing loudly at something, his voice rough and echoing in the quiet street.
I’ ve known lots of motorcycle enthusiasts and most are nice people. However, in this case, I was a woman all alone, in a strange neighborhood, at night, and this rough-looking crowd — all wearing insignia (徽章) that indicated they were in some sort of club — standing before me. Warning bells began to sound in my head, and my heart was pounding. Was I at the right theater? Had I misread the date of the event?
A sign outside the theater told me that I was in the right place on the right evening. Nevertheless, I wondered if I should rush back to my hotel instead of walking through that crowd of bikers. The thought of squeezing past them, of drawing their attention, made my palms sweat. I finally decided that I would be safer inside the theater. Hopefully, the bikers would have gone away by the time the film was over.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I hurried into the theater, only to find there were even more bikers inside.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the film began, I realized that the bikers were an animal rescue group.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
I hurried into the theater, only to find there were even more bikers inside. The dim lights cast shadows over their leather-clad figures, and I felt a knot tighten in my stomach. I hesitated for a moment, wanting to turn and run, but the thought of the abandoned dogs in the documentary pulled me forward. I scanned the room for an empty seat, my eyes darting away whenever a biker glanced in my direction. Finally, I spotted a small seat in the back row and slipped into it, my hands still trembling. I kept my head down, trying to make myself as small as possible, counting the minutes until the film started.
When the film began, I realized that the bikers were an animal rescue group. The documentary showed them loading crates of shivering dogs onto their motorcycles, driving through rain and snow to transport the animals to shelters. The man with the scar above his eyebrow was featured prominently — he was seen gently wrapping a blanket around a scared puppy, his rough voice softening as he whispered comforting words. Cheers erupted from the bikers in the theater when the scene ended, and I felt a wave of embarrassment wash over me for judging them based on their appearance. By the time the film finished, I had joined them in clapping, grateful for the reminder that kindness often comes in unexpected packages.

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Growing up in Damascus in Syria, Yusra dreamed of competing at the Olympics. She re-members watching the games with her father, who was a professional swimmer, and began training when she was 9. But after the civil war broke out when she was just 13, her life changed dramatically.“Our house was destroyed, so we had to live with my grandma,” she says.“We went to school, but it was dangerous; it was the same with swimming.”
After four years of living in fear of attacks, she and her older sister Sara made the difficult decision to flee in search of safety in Europe. They traveled to Turkey first. They then continued onto Germany, which became Yusra and Sara’s second home, although it took some time for it to feel like it. “The one thing that made me feel at home was swimming,” says Yusra.
She began training at a club, applying her determination and resilience (坚韧) to the sport she loved, and the next year, she was selected to compete at the Rio Olympics as part of the first ever refugee (难民) Olympic Team.
Competing on the world stage alongside athletes from all other countries, she realized that she was representing others like her — those who were forced to live beyond borders. From that moment, she has worked tirelessly to share her story, and those of so many others, to bring greater visibility to the dangers they have faced.
Yusra will launch a foundation to provide refugees around the globe with access to education and sport. She is also currently studying film and TV production in Los Angeles. Swimming remains her cornerstone, the true constant in her life. “Swimming has taught me a lot: it taught me to try again. If you’ re going through something tough, it doesn’t mean that it is over,” Yusra says.
21. What role does swimming play in Yusra’s life?
A. It keeps her engaged in sports.
B. It gives her a sense of security.
C. It is a means of gaining recognition.
D. It offers a brief escape from reality.
22. What did Yusra realize after participating in the Rio Olympics?
A. She had made a big achievement.
B. She had to search for her identity.
C. She could voice for the displaced.
D. She should befriend other athletes.
23. What does the story mainly tell us?
A. Where there’s a will, there’s a way.
B. One good turn deserves another.
C. A friend in need is a friend indeed.
D. Action speaks louder than words.
B
We’ve all been there: in a lift, looking through phones to avoid eye contact; in a bank line, staring at the floor as silence stretches awkwardly; or on a plane, holding devices like shields (屏障) from the stranger next to us. It’s a common modern habit — but beneath this a voidance lies a problem. Maybe we’ve lost some ability to talk to others: our skill at starting chats has faded from choosing phones over talking for years. More likely, we just avoid starting a chat — it feels awkward to break silence, hard to find words, or unnecessary when we can hide behind phones. But next time you’re around strangers, pause: small talk is worth the discomfort. Experts call it a valuable social habit that brings easy-to-miss benefits.
It’s easy to ignore small talk and regard it as something unimportant, but we forget:deep relationships — romantic, professional, or friendly — would never start without casual chats first. Small talk is like oil for socializing, says Bernardo Carducci, head of Indiana University Southeast’s Shyness Research Institute. “Nearly every great love story starts with a silly weather comment in a cafe, and big business deals begin with casual pre-meeting chats about trends,” he explains. “Good small talk isn’t just exchanging words — it’s connecting,showing real interest, not just going through the motions. Asking a barista (咖啡师) ‘How’s your busiest shift?’ instead of ‘A latte, please.’ turns an order into a tiny human link.”
In a study, UBC psychology teacher Elizabeth Dunn tested customers at a local café. One group talked to waiters — asking about their day, commenting on new cakes, joking a-bout long lines. The other only spoke when needed: just ordering and thanking. The results showed that those who chatted with their server reported significantly higher positive feelings and a better coffee shop experience. “It’s not that talking to the waiter is better than talking to your husband,” say Dunn. “But interactions with peripheral (边缘) members of our social network matter for our well-being also.”
Dunn thinks reaching out to strangers can boost our sense of belonging — a quiet bond that eases loneliness. Carducci agrees: this connection starts with small chats. “Small talk is good manners’ base,” he says. “Nice day, isn’t it?” to a bus stop stranger, or “I love your necklace — where did you get it?” to a coworker, doesn’t just fill silence. It builds respect,eases tension, and reminds us we’re all just people wanting a little connection.”
24. What phenomenon (现象) is described in the first paragraph?
A. Addiction to using smartphones.
B. Impatience with inefficient service.
C. Inappropriate behaviour in public places.
D. Absence of communication between strangers.
25. What is important for successful small talk according to Carducci?
A. Showing good manners.
B. Connecting with other people.
C. Focusing on a topic.
D. Making business deals.
26. What does the coffee shop study suggest about small talk?
A. It improves family relationships. B. It develops people’s thinking ability.
C. It matters as much as formal talk. D. It makes people pretty good.
27. What does the underlined word “boost” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Reduce. B. Maintain.
C. Strengthen. D. Reflect.
C
Imagine staying in the icy wilderness of Antarctica, cut off from the rest of the world, with only a small group of scientists. Such a group might be expected to develop a culture of its own, but would that develop a new shared accent?
As part of the project to explain the spoken accent development, a group of researchers led by Jonathan Harrington, professor of phonetics and speech processing at the Ludwig-Maximilian University of Munich, started the study. The researchers studied a group of 11 scientists spending six months on an island just west of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The scientists were from several countries, including the US, the UK, Iceland and Germany. As part of the study, they had to record themselves reading a list of vocabularies from a computer screen every few weeks. The list included words with vowel (元音) sounds /i:/, /u:/ and / əʊ/ that have been found to change over time in different English accents.
The recordings were then sent to researchers. When the recordings were studied, the researchers found that the pronunciation of words with an /əʊ/ sound— such as “flow,”“code” and “sew”— had changed a little over the six months. The scientists began to pronounce it more toward the front of their mouths than toward the back. (British pronunciations are already typically fronter than American /əʊ/.)
The researchers believe it shows the development of a new accent among the scientists. Harrington said, “When we speak to each other, we remember that speech, and then that has an influence on our own speech production.”
While only small changes were recorded, the researchers believe the experiment helps to explain how different accents are created among enclosed (封闭的) communities — and may help us know why American and British English have developed as they have.
28. What were the scientists expected to do during the study?
A. Tell stories. B. Show pictures.
C. Make sentences. D. Read and record words.
29. Which word’s pronunciation may change in the enclosed community in the study?
A. show. B. sheep.
C. tube. D. adult.
30. Which of the following do the researchers agree with concerning the finding?
A. It proves life in Antarctica is difficult.
B. It uncovers the connection of vowel sounds.
C. It helps build communications among people with different accents.
D. It may explain American and British English’s development.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. Different Accents Around the World.
B. The Development of English Language.
C. Does a New Accent Form Among Enclosed Communities?
D. What Would Scientists’ Daily Life Be Like in Antarctica?

73. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
I was in Philadelphia for a conference when I saw an ad in the hotel. A nearby theater was showing a documentary about several local animal shelters that were helping to save abandoned dogs across the country. I love animals and I felt an urge to go to this fundraising (募捐) event. However, none of my co-workers would go with me, and I was worried about walking on the street alone at night.
I ended up spending the evening in my hotel room, but as soon as I got back to my room I felt restless and bored. The theater where the event was taking place was only about five blocks from the hotel, and the area around the hotel didn’t seem particularly dangerous. So, I decided to go for it. I gathered up my wallet and room key and set off.
It was already getting dark and the streets were almost empty. I managed to find the street the theater was on, but when I turned the corner, I stopped in shock. In front of the theater were a group of bikers — clustered around their heavy motorcycles. They were all large men dressed in leather vests. One in particular, a mountain of a man with a thick beard and a scar above his eyebrow, was laughing loudly at something, his voice rough and echoing in the quiet street.
I’ ve known lots of motorcycle enthusiasts and most are nice people. However, in this case, I was a woman all alone, in a strange neighborhood, at night, and this rough-looking crowd — all wearing insignia (徽章) that indicated they were in some sort of club — standing before me. Warning bells began to sound in my head, and my heart was pounding. Was I at the right theater? Had I misread the date of the event?
A sign outside the theater told me that I was in the right place on the right evening. Nevertheless, I wondered if I should rush back to my hotel instead of walking through that crowd of bikers. The thought of squeezing past them, of drawing their attention, made my palms sweat. I finally decided that I would be safer inside the theater. Hopefully, the bikers would have gone away by the time the film was over.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I hurried into the theater, only to find there were even more bikers inside.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
When the film began, I realized that the bikers were an animal rescue group.
