The boards displayed photos and jump counts, drawing the attention of many students, who admired the impressive scores of the “Jump Rope King”． Thanks to this event, the school campus has become filled with the energetic sight of students jumping rope. The students, as they leap into the air, resemble lively spirits, contributing to a vibrant campus atmosphere. In recent years, the Beilin District Education Bureau has emphasized promoting students' physical fitness and overall well­being through activities like Sunshine Sports during breaks. The goal is to encourage schools to offer a variety of events that promote health and development. The “Jump Rope King Challenge” is one of these events, and it is divided into four groups: upper grades, lower grades, boys, and girls. Each week, students can challenge the current “Jump Rope King”， and if they succeed, they earn the title for the following week. Third­grader Peng Ziqi proudly shared, “I practice hard during every break, and my best record so far is 209 jumps in one minute！” In addition to jump rope, the school offers extracurricular activities such as basketball, soccer, dance，cheerleading, and martial arts.

At the start of a 1，000­foot­long hallway connecting Tom Bradley International Terminal's (航站楼) Great Hall to its west gates, the light softens to blue. What amazes passengers is the gentle waves of music that greet them as they are carried through the terminal by the moving sidewalk. Along the way, the music shifts between 30 compositions from well­known artists. The Orchestrina, a piece of public art equipment from L．A. Radio and Dublab, is part of a new three­year contract for the station to program live music and sound art at LAX. It's an introduction to L．A.'s experimental music and art scenes. As passengers are on edge over the many things going wrong in the skies these days, the Orchestrina offers an experience of tasteful, mental peace. “That's absolutely the intention, to offer, like, a break from the fast­paced urban schedule，” said Cohen, executive director of Dublab, “There's a really interesting effect when you enter the hallway, coming down this long set of stairs and entering this blue light that completely surrounds you with music and field recordings where you can hear birds and wind passing through grass.” There are many events planned for the three years to come, as Dublab tries to make one of the most awful locations in the county somewhere you might intend to stay longer and listening. “We desire to reflect our city, and I think we've got to bake the arts programming in as part of that. At the end of the day, we're all just human beings using these public spaces.” explained Sarah Cifarelli, LAX Art Program Director. “That's part of the point, though—to show off the city for anyone looking closely and make it gentler for anyone passing through. These are the things that you kind of live for, you work for—being part of the heartbeat of the city，” Cohen said, “It's another step towards being integrated into the city whether intentionally or not.” 篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了洛杉矶国际机场(LAX)内的公共艺术设施——Orchestrina通过柔和的灯光和交替播放的音乐为旅客提供舒缓的体验。 5．What impresses the passengers when they walk into the Orchestrina? A．The long hallway. B．The blue light. C．The moving sidewalk. D．The relaxing music. 答案：D 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“What amazes passengers is ... by the moving sidewalk.”可知，当乘客乘坐自动步道穿过航站楼走进“Orchestrina”时，让他们感到惊奇的是迎接他们的轻柔的音乐。由此可知，让乘客印象深刻的是令人放松的音乐。故选D。 6．What will Dublab's three­year project bring according to Cohen? A．A refreshing interaction with nature. B．A momentary escape from busy routine. C．The increase in LAX's commercial value. D．The promotion of local artists and their music. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“That's absolutely the intention, to offer, like, a break from the fast­paced urban schedule”可知，Cohen (科恩)认为这个项目可以让人们从繁忙日常中得到短暂解脱。故选B。 7．What is the arts programming aimed at? A．Making full use of public spaces. B．Prioritizing showing off the city. C．Being mixed into the city's identity. D．Speeding up the city's development. 答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据最后一段内容可知，洛杉矶国际机场艺术项目总监Sarah Cifarelli (萨拉·西法雷利)希望展现城市，认为必须把艺术节目编排融入其中。Cohen认为这不管是不是有意为之，都是朝着融入这座城市迈出的又一步。由此可知，艺术节目编排旨在反映这座城市，并且要将其融入城市当中。故选C。 8．Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?

JD.com earlier in February promised a year of zero commission for restaurants which sign up for its delivery program by the end of April. The rivalry between JD.com and Meituan's online delivery could restrict profit upside for 2025 earnings at both firms, Bloomberg Intelligence analysts wrote in an April 17 note. Both stocks have fallen more than 25% from their highs in March, underperforming the Hang Seng Tech index. JD.com faces a daunting task taking on Meituan—the distant leader in Chinese food delivery with a two­thirds market share—and other players including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s Ele.me. TikTok parent ByteDance Ltd. scaled back its food delivery ambitions with Douyin after attempting to go head­to­head with Meituan in 2023. Meituan has carved out a successful expansion with its Keeta app in Hong Kong, setting the template for further forays overseas. The company launched in Saudi Arabia last September and according to Chinese media outlet LatePost, Keeta plans to expand to Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain in the next three years. That push for new growth in foreign markets promises to be costly, making JD.com's competition and pressure on margins at home a bigger challenge. 篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了京东与美团在外卖领域的竞争及对双方的影响。 9．What measure did JD.com take to attract restaurant partners in February? A．It offered free delivery services for a year. B．It promised zero commission for restaurants signing up by the end of April. C．It pledged to enroll all deliverymen in social security. D．It announced plans to expand overseas markets. 答案：B 解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“JD.com earlier in February ... by the end of April.”可知，京东在2月份为了吸引餐厅合作伙伴，承诺对在4月底前签约其配送计划的餐厅提供一年零佣金服务。故选B。 10．What can we infer from the fact that both JD.com and Meituan's stocks have fallen over 25% since March? A．Their overseas expansion plans have failed. B．The social security enrollment policy caused significant financial losses. C．They have lost market share to new competitors like ByteDance. D．Investors are skeptical about their future profitability due to intense competition. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段内容可知，彭博情报分析师在4月17日的一份报告中写道，京东和美团的在线外卖业务之间的竞争可能会限制两家公司2025年盈利的增长空间。由此可推知，自3月份以来，京东和美团的股价均下跌了25%以上，表明投资者可能对这两家公司的未来盈利能力持怀疑态度，因为它们面临着激烈的竞争。故选D。 11．The underlined word “daunting” in Paragraph 4 is closest in meaning to ________． A．exciting B．rewarding C．straightforward D．intimidating 答案：D 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后文“Meituan—the distant leader ... including Alibaba Group Holding Ltd.'s Ele.me”可知，京东要挑战在中国外卖市场占据三分之二份额的美团以及其他参与者，包括阿里巴巴集团控股有限公司的饿了么，由此可知，这是一项令人生畏的任务，画线词意为“使人畏惧的”，与D项含义相近。故选D。 12．Why is Meituan's overseas expansion seen as a “bigger challenge” for JD.com? A．Overseas expansion requires significant investment, adding pressure to Meituan's margins at home. B．Meituan's strong domestic market share makes it invincible abroad. C．JD.com lacks the technology and resources to compete in international markets. D．Meituan's Keeta app has already dominated the Hong Kong and Middle Eastern markets. 答案：A 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“That push for new growth ... a bigger challenge.”可推知，美团的海外扩张被视为京东的一个“更大的挑战”，是因为海外扩张需要大量投资，增加了美团在国内的利润率压力。而京东在国内与美团竞争本就艰难，美团的资源分散可能间接加剧竞争。故选A。 词汇：①pledge v. 正式承诺；保证　②delivery n. 递送，投递　③expansion n. 扩大，扩张　④launch v. 发行；发动　⑤take on ... 与……较量；对付…… 佳句：Meituan has carved out a successful expansion with its Keeta app in Hong Kong， setting the template for further forays overseas. 美团凭借其旗下Keeta应用程序在香港成功拓展业务，为未来进一步进军海外市场奠定了基础。 (2025·辽宁省沈阳市第二中学高三下第六次模拟考试)NAIROBI—Richard Muthie, a 50­year­old coffee farmer in Kenya's central county of Kirinyaga, stood at the gate of the Mutira Farmers' Cooperative Society coffee factory, ready to deliver his harvest of 30 kilograms of ripe, red coffee berries. Muthie is one of 8，000 smallholder farmers who jointly own the cooperative. Coffee farming is his primary source of income, providing for his household needs. The cooperative's operations are deeply__intertwined__with the region's agricultural patterns. The coffee harvesting season typically begins in October and ends by the end of the year. Farmers then wait for the long rains in March for the next harvest, as their crops heavily depend on rainfall. In 2023, the Mutira Farmers' Cooperative Society processed about 4.88 million kg of coffee berries from its members. Most of the production was semi­processed and sold at the Nairobi Coffee Exchange, with only 1 percent fully processed for local consumers. To maximize profits for farmers, the cooperative has set a goal of fully processing at least 5 percent of their coffee and expanding into overseas markets, including China. Martin Kinyua, the cooperative's secretary, noted that higher earnings have encouraged farmers to expand the land dedicated to coffee planting, which is expected to boost the factory's capacity. Victor Munene, an agriculture expert at the cooperative, emphasized the profitable potential of coffee farming in the region. “A half­acre piece of land can generate about 96，000 Kenyan shillings ($743) annually，” Munene said. Kenya's acidic soils are suitable for producing specialty coffee, which commands high prices globally. Statistics from the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics highlight the cooperative's significance. In 2023, Kenya's coffee production reached 48，648 metric tons, generating about $251.86 million in exports. The coffee industry plays a crucial role in the country's economy, providing income and opportunities for smallholder farmers like Muthie. 篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了肯尼亚基里尼亚加地区的咖啡小农通过合作社模式实现增收的情况。 13．What does the phrase “deeply intertwined with” in Paragraph 2 likely mean?

D．Entirely separated from. 答案：A 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线部分后文“The coffee harvesting season ... as their crops heavily depend on rainfall.”可知，合作社的运营与当地农业模式紧密相关，因为咖啡收获季节依赖降雨周期。由此可知，画线部分意为“与……紧密关联”，与closely tied to同义。故选A。 14．Why does the cooperative decide to expand into overseas markets? A．Because it wants to diversify its product range. B．Because specialty coffee can charge more there. C．Because there is a lack of demand for coffee in Kenya.

Since then, life has moved forward on land. But now, armed with cutting­edge technology, humans are exploring ways to venture beyond the ground: constructing tall skyscrapers, planning moon bases, and even attempting to return to the ocean. For instance, a UK company wants to build permanent subaqueous residences by 2027. Their leader says they want to replicate the thrill of space exploration to attract smart people to investigate the sea. Currently, 95% of the Earth's oceans remain unexplored, giving them a substantial opportunity. The company plans to use 3D­printed metal homes to survive ocean pressure. Their first small station will be ready this year. It is as big as a small classroom and can hold 3 divers at a depth of 100 meters into the ocean for short trips. Bigger stations will later allow 6 people to live for a month, with bedrooms, kitchens, and labs. In the 1960s, early submarine labs let people stay for about a month. In 2023, a professor named Joseph Dituri broke the record by living beneath the ocean's surface for 100 days. His body changed slightly—like shrinking half an inch—but he stayed healthy. Still, scientists warn long­term living beneath the ocean's surface might harm blood flow, and returning to the surface too fast can be deadly. Another problem is wildlife. Ocean animals already suffer from warming waters, and building metal homes could damage their habitats. Nancy Knowlton, a marine science professor in the US, said, “Humans have not done enough to protect the ocean. While the UK company claims they want to study and protect sea life, we fear this might cause new issues.” Despite challenges, the company has big dreams beneath the ocean's surface: 10 stations worldwide by 2035, and the first “baby” born beneath the waves by 2050. Their leader stresses, “We can't ignore the oceans anymore—protecting them is key to the Earth's future. Just as our ancestors left the sea long ago, humankind, in my view, might now start a new chapter beneath the waves.” 篇章导读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一家英国公司计划建造永久性水下住宅的相关情况。 17．What does the underlined word “subaqueous” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A．Surficial. B．Spacial. C．Underwater. D．Urban. 答案：C 解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后的“Their leader says they want ... a substantial opportunity.”可知，这家公司想要吸引聪明的人去探索海洋，所以他们想要建造的是水下住宅。画线词意为“水下的”，与underwater同义。故选C。 18．What is the common purpose of early submarine labs and the UK company's stations? A．For marine tourism. B．For wildlife research. C．For human habitation. D．For marine conservation. 答案：C 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Their first small station ... with bedrooms, kitchens, and labs.”和第三段中的“In the 1960s, early submarine labs let people stay for about a month.”可知，早期海底实验室和英国公司的站点的共同目的是供人类居住。故选C。 19．What is Nancy Knowlton's attitude to the UK company's stations? A．Indifferent. B．Appreciative. C．Tolerant. D．Doubtful. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Nancy Knowlton ... we fear this might cause new issues.’”可知，Nancy Knowlton (南希·诺尔顿)担心英国公司的做法可能会引发新的问题，由此可推知，她对其持怀疑态度。故选D。 20．Which word best describes the UK company's plan? A．Comprehensive. B．Conservative. C．Ambiguous. D．Ambitious. 答案：D 解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Despite challenges, the company has big dreams ... beneath the waves by 2050.”可知，尽管面临挑战，该公司计划到2035年在全球建立10个站点，到2050年迎来第一个“婴儿”在海浪下诞生，由此可推知，这家英国公司的计划雄心勃勃。故选D。 词汇：①venture v. 敢于去（未知或危险等地方）；冒险　②investigate v. 研究；调查　③substantial adj. 大量的；价值巨大的　④habitat n. （动植物的）生活环境，栖息地　⑤（be） armed with 具备…… 佳句：But now， armed with cutting­edge technology， humans are exploring ways to venture beyond the ground ... 但如今，凭借尖端技术，人类正在探索突破陆地限制的冒险方式…… 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
