Among the three options, I prefer the first logo as it best represents the spirit of reading. The reasons for my choice are as follows. To begin with, the first logo features an open book and the earth, which symbolizes knowledge and the outside world. Besides, the words open a book and open a world beautifully emphasize the purpose of reading, inspiring students to explore the unknown world by reading books. Overall, this logo is a perfect choice. Thank you for considering my opinion. I am looking forward to seeing the final design. Yours sincerely, Li Hua 67. 读后续写 As I turned to leave, two police officers pulled up in a patrol car. Obviously, someone had called the police before the stray cow caused another traffic jam. Explaining to the police my childhood experience, I volunteered to stay and help. Approaching the cow with a bunch of fresh grass, I whispered in a most soothing(抚慰) tone," Take it, sweet girl." As if understanding my words, the cow, with its early skittishness gone, gathered the grass into her mouth and chewed with satisfaction. Seeing the cow dropping its guard, one of the policemen inched towards, picking the loose rope up at lightning speed and keeping the cow under control.We sighed in relief and high-fived each other in the air. We tied the rope to a tree and discussed what to do with the cow. One policeman proposed calling the animal rescue team while the other suggested sending for a professional cattle farmer. The cow, obviously drawn to the fresh grass under the tree, was busy grazing and cared little about our heated discussion. Just then, the policemen received a call, saying the owner of the cow would arrive in five minutes. This news, like a magical balm, brought us another round of relief. As the owner, a 50-year-old man with an apologetic and guilty expression, presented himself and led the cow home, we readily forgave them and showered them with kind, comforting words like " no harm done","a perfect false alarm for a dull day", bonded in a peculiar sense of community and belonging. · 听力原文 Text 1 M: Excuse me.

Seventy is a nice number for a chapter in a book, a score in a game, or a temperature in the summer, but it wasn’t a number I was ready to face in my life. I was stuck with this number and everything it means. A few days after my birthday, a close friend remarked, “Seventy is the new sixty. ” This statement was meant to be encouraging, but it left me considering the changing meanings of age. Am I truly over the hill, or has society simply shifted the standard for aging? The physical challenges are undeniable. I can no longer run the marathons I once did, and my daily walks are now interrupted by pauses and rest. Dr. Smith, a renowned gerontologist (老年病学家), often says, “You are not getting older, you are getting more mature.” While this may be true, it doesn’t change the fact that my body is aging, and the aches and pains are more frequent. I appreciate his viewpoint, but I know it’s time to face the realities of aging head-on. As I step into my seventh decade, I tend to reflect on what it means to age. I see aging as a mixture of resilience and acceptance, a process that requires both fighting against the inevitable and embracing the changes that come. Aging is a natural part of life, and while I may no longer be the athlete I once was, I find new ways to stay active and engaged. Seventy is a number that once seemed distant, but now it is my present reality. I am reminded of the words of the philosopher: “Old is always fifteen years from now.” This perspective helps me to stay positive, even as I acknowledge the physical limitations that come with age. The best may indeed be yet to come and I am determined to find the beauty in every new chapter. 24. What does the author imply at the beginning? A．Time flies quickly. B．Only time will tell. C．Time heals all wounds. D．Aging is a tough reality. 25. What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Passing one’s peak. B．Enjoying retirement life. C．Reaching the top position. D．Facing physical challenges. 26. What can we learn from the author’s reflection on aging? A．Aging is a contradictory but natural process. B．Aging is a clear decline in mental abilities. C．There is no need to fight against our aging. D．The author will give up new activities. 27. How does the author feel about the future life? A．Peaceful. B．Promising. C．Upset. D．Regretful. C Fabian Mdluli grew up in Acornhoek, a rural town that borders Greater Kruger National Park. The park, home to lions, elephants, rhinos, and over 147 animal species, draws nearly two million visitors yearly. Like many young people living near one of South Africa’s 1,690 protected areas, however, 23-year-old Mdluli had never seen the country’s wildlife in person. Last year, Fabian Mdluli became the first fully sponsored student in an initiative by Too Wild Productions to train South Africa’s next generation of wildlife filmmakers. Founded by zoologist-turned TV presenter Lauren Arthur and filmmakers David Eastaugh, the program provides hands-on experience in the wild. During the four-week course in Timbavati Private Nature Reserve (53,000 hectares, western Kruger), students develop technical skills while learning ethical storytelling to drive positive change. Mdluli describes it as transformational. “It helped me discover my passion — editing. It’s all about constructing the story.” While Africa is a primary setting for many internationally acclaimed (受到称赞的) wildlife films, African voices remain scanty behind the camera. A 2022 report revealed that while 25% of film award submissions featured African wildlife, only 7% were actually made in Africa by Africans. A recent UNESCO report confirmed that the film and audiovisual sector in Africa generated just 20 billion. At the same time, youth unemployment stands at more than 65% in rural communities within the Greater Kruger area, where poverty and unemployment are driving factors behind environmental challenges such as human-wildlife conflict. “We’ve seen these challenges with our own eyes and, while we don’t think we can solve these problems alone, we want to ensure those who live closest to these ecosystems have the tools, knowledge and opportunity to tell their own stories,” says Arthur. While Mdluli has joined Too Wild as a junior editor, he’s eager to take on new opportunities in the industry. Arthur says they’ ll support him, as well as their current sponsored students, as much as they can. “Our biggest goal is to have production companies coming to us asking, ‘Hey, who are your local filmmakers? We want to hire them,’” says Arthur. 28. What can we know about young people near the protected areas? A．They benefit from wildlife tourism. B．They all receive filmmaking training. C．They can visit national parks regularly. D．They have little contact with wildlife. 29. What is the feature of Too Wild Productions? A．It offers degree certificates. B．It provides practical field training. C．It focuses on studio production. D．It admits international filmmakers. 30. What does the underlined word “scanty” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A．Active. B．Weak. C．Confident. D．Unique. 31. What is Arthur’s main expectation for the initiative? A．To build a lasting local talent pool. B．To produce popular wildlife films. C．To encourage youths to work independently. D．To arouse youths’ interest in the film industry. D Artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly rewiring childhood, bringing both brilliant opportunities and severe risks to children’s growth. This year, AI-powered toys like talking robots and teddies have become popular among kids, while older children are addicted to viral AI-generated videos and games. At school, many students learn with AI-created materials, and some even study with AI tutors. AI promises every child a personalized upbringing previously available only to the wealthy — private tutoring, tailored courses and customized entertainment. For example, AI can rewrite articles for an 8-year-old Hindi speaker or turn text into cartoons, and help students escape “one-size-fits-all” classes where bright pupils feel bored and struggling ones fall behind. New forms of fun are also created: AI-enhanced games allow kids to chat with their heroes, and young people enjoy making and sharing AI videos. However, it is a future filled with opportunities and hidden traps. AI tutors may give wrong answers, and some AI toys have been found to produce inappropriate content. Children may misuse AI to cheat on homework or bother others with “deepfake” videos. More seriously, AI tends to push what children like most, strengthening “echo chamber” effect and making them lose the ability to tolerate unfamiliar things. Besides, one-sided relationships with AI companions, which never criticize or share real feelings make it hard for kids to deal with imperfect humans. A third of US teens say chatting with AI is as satisfying as talking to friends, which may weaken their real-world communication and compromise skills. Some techno-optimists argue that these concerns are overstated, suggesting AI offers a low-pressure environment to practice social skills without fear of judgment. However, this view may underestimate how the absence of true give-and-take and conflict in AI interactions could create an abnormal blueprint for human connection. The risk is not that children will interact with machines, but that they might come to expect the same effortless agreement and lack of genuine emotional exchange from their peers. To address these issues, urgent measures are needed: strict age restrictions on AI chatbots, more in-school assessments to prevent cheating, and parents should be cautious about AI tools for kids. Schools, as key places for childhood growth, should make good use of effective AI tutoring while focusing on skills that AI cannot replace — debating, disagreeing and getting along with others. They should also provide more chances for kids to explore new ideas and encounter different people. While AI clearly has great potential to improve education and entertainment, the luckiest children may be those whose parents and teachers know when to turn it off. 32. What can we infer from Paragraph 2? A．AI takes the place of human teachers. B．AI helps equalize teaching resources. C．AI guarantees children a promising future. D．AI generates boredom of traditional classes. 33. What will happen to a kid constantly exposed to AI? A．The kid will learn to criticize and share feelings. B．The kid will struggle with real human relationships. C．The kid will balance AI and human connection well. D．The kid will become more tolerant of unfamiliar content. 34. What should schools do regarding AI according to the last paragraph? A．Ban AI tools to prevent cheating. B．Rely on AI for teaching assessment. C．Put aside AI’s development potential.

We set goals and plan milestones to predict the future to some degree in various fields. For example: can we increase our earnings by 20 percent?     36     These are all measurements that face forward. The opposite also works well in the measurement, though. Nearly every improvement we wish to make in our lives requires some type of behavior change. But the chains of habit are too weak to be felt. The more automatic a certain behavior becomes, the less likely we are to notice it. This helps to explain how the bad habits can affect us.     37     That’s because it forces us to take notice of our recent actions to determine on our decisions and improvements.     38     When measuring backward, you get to enjoy the progress you have made rather than desire a different life in the future. You don’t have to put happiness off until you reach a future milestone or goal. Happiness is no longer a finish line out there in the future. Focusing on how you can immediately improve over your past is more satisfying than comparing your current state to where you hope you’ll be some day. Nevertheless, one warning should be kept in mind to this strategy.     39     If data from two years ago is used to measure progress and make decisions, the choices would be off. The same is true for lifting weights or other areas of improvement. In other words, the short-term feedback is preferable to change long-term behavior.     40     Measure backward and let that recent results drive your future actions to change you for the better. A．Simply put, the shorter, the better. B．There is an additional benefit as well. C．Can we lose 20 pounds in the next 3 months? D．How can we improve by a little bit this week? E．The references should be those from the recent past. F．Having a sense of direction for where to go is quite critical. G．However, measuring backward helps uncover these invisible patterns. 第三部分 语言知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last spring, Clara and I teamed up for a school geology project studying unusual rock formations on Pine Hill. ____41____ with notebooks and basic tools, we set off eagerly, ___42_____ that this adventure would teach us more than just about rocks.

However, on Wednesday morning, ____44____ struck. While climbing to our usual observation spot, I tripped, sending our measurement ___45_____ rolling down the hillside. My heart sank as we watched our only compass (指南针) disappear into thick bushes. “Without those tools...” I said, frustration choking my voice. “Wait,” Clara interrupted, ___46_____ the afternoon shadows stretching across the rocks. “Remember what Mr. Evans taught about using natural markers?” Her eyes lit up with a(n) ___47_____. We spent the afternoon ___48_____ Clara tracked shadow lengths while I compared rock layers. When shadows proved ____49____, we used fern (蕨类植物) growth patterns as directional guides.

We seem to have too much attachment to data accessible on those devices.     56     is it a good thing that we’re relying on technology more often than not, recording every step we take? Can those tools really maximize your workout benefits? The real questions surround not the     57     (wear), but the wearer. The challenge for athletes     58     (look) to up their game with data is finding the type of information that is most helpful. If you are hoping to run faster and want to try moderating your pace based on heart rate “zones,” a wearable can help you do so. However, for professionals and those who are new     59    working out, less is more. Earlier this month, Sara Hall, a professional marathon runner competing in the U.S. Olympic marathon trials, actually     60     (throw) away her GPS watch midrace     61     (avoid) distraction. Similarly, for beginner runners, it’s more important to learn to listen to your body’s signals — tiredness,     62     (ache), bursts of energy —     63     to track your pace or heart rate. Depending on what those goals are, there might be ways to achieve them that are more cost     64     (effect), more fun, more convenient. Dr. Ethan Weiss, a physician at the University of California tells his patients that a different item    65   (attach) at your wrist, like a leash, is more likely to pull you toward more activity. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 66. 假定你是李华，你校正在为英语文学阅读室设计标识，现向学生征集意见。请你给负责此项工作的外教 Mr. Green写邮件，从以下标识中选择你最喜欢的一个，并说明理由。 注意： 1. 写作词数为80左右； 2. 可以增加适当细节，以使行文连贯； Dear Mr. Green, I am writing to share my ideas on the logo design for our English literature reading room. ____________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ ____________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 第二节 (满分25分) 67.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 driving my daughter Lila to her swimming lesson when we spotted a cow wandering down the main road. A thick rope was tied around its neck, dragging on the pavement behind it. The cow was ambling along in the middle of the traffic, tail flicking lazily, while a line of cars followed cautiously, their drivers leaning out of windows to stare. A group of kids on bicycles had gathered at a safe distance, cheering and pointing as the cow nudged a stop sign with its head. “Look, Mom!” Lila gasped, pressing her face against the car window. “City people are all scared of it! But you can handle anything, right? You herded cows on Grandpa’s farm when you were a kid.” I smiled, recalling the summer I’d spent on my grandfather’s dairy farm, chasing strays back into the pasture with a stick and a loud voice. “It’s just a lost cow, sweetie,” I said, “but we need to get you to swim class first. I’ll check on it after I drop you off.” We inched past the cow, which lifted its head and let out a low moo as we passed. Lila waved, and the cow tilted its head as if waving back. I dropped Lila at the pool, promising to be back in an hour, then turned the car around to find the cow. By the time I got back to the main road, the traffic had cleared, but the cow was still there—standing in a patch of grass by the sidewalk, chewing on a dandelion. It was a reddish-brown cow, smaller than the Holsteins on Grandpa’s farm, with big, gentle eyes. And there was something about it, a skittishness(易激动的) in its posture, that made it different from the cows I’d known back home. It didn’t seem like a farm cow at all. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 As I turned to leave, two police officers pulled up in a patrol car. ________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ We tied the rope to a tree and discussed what to do with the cow.________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
