B The sales pitches tempt: Blue-light-blocking glasses are supposed to protect eyes from the effects of short-wavelength light emitted from our smartphones, computer screens and LED lights. Given how much time we spend on our devices, this sounds like a smart investment, right? After all, eye strain is a real issue and can lead to poor sleep and even eye diseases. The glasses can cost $15 all the way up to several hundred dollars. But do they work? Elizabeth Esparaz, an ophthalmologist(眼科医生) based in Cleveland, Ohio, says the science that manufacturers share as they promote these glasses can be confusing. For starters, blue light is not just about tech devices, and it’s not always bad. “The sun emits a much higher intensity of blue light than human-made devices, of course, and it’s actually beneficial,” says Dr. Esparaz. It helps our mood, alertness and sleep-wake cycle. The problem is blue light at night: It contains the release of melatonin. “Melatonin helps regulate our circadian rhythms(生理节奏) and makes us sleepy,” says Dr. Esparaz. So, in theory, wearing blue-light-blocking glasses should help people who watch movies in bed or read from a tablet at night avoid sleeplessness. A 2021 review study from the University of Oklahoma that looked at 24 previous studies found that people affected by sleep disorders, jet lag and shift work fell asleep faster after using these glasses. As for eye strain, a 2021 Australian study showed that those wearing the glasses did not experience less eye strain than those using clear glasses. And a 2018 review study, also by Australian researchers, found insufficient evidence that they could prevent certain eye diseases. “These glasses aren’t going to be harmful,” says Dr. Esparaz. But, she adds, a lack of standardization in the industry means there’s no way to know if one pair is better than another. A more reliable solution: Turn on the blue-light-filtering function on your devices and limit screen time before bed. To help with eye strain, Dr. Esparaz suggests taking breaks and using lubricating eye drops. 24.What is Dr. Esparaz’s attitude toward business publicity? A. Unclear.　　　　 B. Dismissive. C. Approving.　　　　 D. Doubtful. 25.What can we learn about blue light from the first two paragraphs? A. It can be beneficial. B. It may facilitate sleep. C. It actually causes health issues. D. It merely comes from digital devices. 26.Australian studies found that wearing blue-light-blocking glasses 　　　.  A. helps prevent eye diseases B. is not harmful to eyesight C. contributes to no less eye strain D. benefits those with sleep disorders 27.What can be the best title for this passage? A. Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Your Best Choice B. Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Good or Bad C. Blue-light-blocking Glasses: A Good Business D. Blue-light-blocking Glasses: Smart and Cool C Heman Bekele, a 14-year-old student from Annandale, Virginia, has created a bar of soap to treat melanoma, the most common kind of skin cancer, which earned him the title of America’s Top Young Scientist and a $25,000 cash prize after his innovation won first place in the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. “I made this soap by mixing regular medicinal soap with different cancer fighting chemicals,” Bekele said in an interview. Rather than a cure, Bekele’s soap aims to help the patient’s immune cells stay active while fighting melanoma. While similar methods are available for skin cancer treatments, his solution is a more affordable alternative, especially for those in developing countries. Though the product is very promising on paper, studies would have to be carried out to test its efficiency in the real world. For now, the young scientist has a five-year plan:At the end of it, he hopes to have created a nonprofit organization where he can provide fair and accessible skin cancer treatment for as many people as possible. But to accomplish his goal, he will have to get his treatment through clinical trials, obtain a temporary patent and have it licensed by the Food and Drug Administration. “I applied to the 3M Young Scientist Challenge because I believe that young minds can make a positive impact on the world,” Bekele said. “I have always been interested in biology and technology, and this Challenge gave me the perfect platform to showcase my ideas. The opportunity to work with 3M mentors and show my project to judges was an exciting prospect. I am passionate about finding sustainable solutions to global problems, and I hope to inspire others to do the same.” 28.Why does Bekele invent the soap? A. To deal with a kind of skin cancer. B. To reduce the cost of making soap. C. To change people’s immune system. D. To complete the task of the 3M Young Scientist Challenge. 29.What aspect of the soap does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Its making process. B. Its working method. C. Its advantage. D. Its development. 30.What is Bekele’s next plan for his invention? A. To create a company. B. To get approval by the authority. C. To promote the soap in the market. D. To work with a nonprofit organization. 31.Which of the following can best describe Bekele? A. Innovative and ambitious. B. Inspiring and tolerant. C. Honest and accessible. D. Energetic and thoughtful. D The multitalented, Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci over 500 years ago wrote down his “rule of trees”, which describes the way he thought that trees branch. Though it was brilliant insight that helped him to draw realistic landscapes, Leonardo’s rule breaks down for many types of trees. Now, a new branching rule—nicknamed “Leonardo-like”—works for virtually any leafy tree. “The older Leonardo rule describes the thickness of the branches, while the length of the branches was not taken into account,” says the physicist Sergey Grigoriev. “Therefore, the description using the older rule is not complete.” Leonardo’s rule says that the thickness of a limb before it branches into smaller ones is the same as the combined thickness of the limbs sprouting from it. However, according to Grigoriev and his colleagues, it’s the surface area that stays the same. Using the surface area as a guide, the new rule incorporates limb widths and lengths, and predicts that long branches end up being thinner than short ones. Unlike Leonardo’s guess, the updated rule worked well when the team checked slim birches(桦树) as well as strong oaks. To test their rule, the research team took photographs of trees from a variety of species and analyzed the branches to confirm that the real-world patterns matched the predictions. “The photos offer a direct measurement of the characteristics of a tree without touching it, which can be important when dealing with a living object,” Grigoriev says. The rule holds for all of the deciduous trees that the researchers have looked at, though the team hasn’t studied evergreens yet. While it’s possible to confirm the rule by measuring branches by hand, it would require climbing up trees and checking all the branches—a risky exercise for trees and scientists alike. “Note,” the researchers write, “that not a single tree was harmed during these experiments.” 32.What does Leonardo’s rule of trees focus on? A. How tree branches may grow. B. What environment trees need. C. How trees can be drawn better. D. What landscapes trees can form. 33.Why are birches and oaks mentioned in paragraph 3? A. To state the correctness of the new rule. B. To present Leonardo’s influential works. C. To compare the features of different trees. D. To show the popularity of Leonardo’s rule. 34.How did the researchers prove the new rule? A. By applying it to various trees. B. By conducting on-site inspection. C. By analyzing pictures of branches. D. By measuring real branches directly. 35.What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. Further experiments are required. B. The protection of trees is stressed. C. Risky accidents happened in the study. D. Trees were damaged in the experiments. 第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5 分， 满分 12.5分） Literature holds great importance in shaping our thoughts and ideas.

Every weekend, she would walk into the nearby forest, hoping to capture precious moments of animals in their natural habitat. However, after months of trying, she still hadn’t gotten that perfect shot she was looking for. Deer always ran away at the slightest sound, birds flew off before she could focus her lens(镜头), and her camera bag stayed full of empty memory cards. Frustration began to creep in, but Sarah refused to give up. She loved the forest, the fresh air, and the sense of peace it brought her, even if the animals didn’t always cooperate. One chilly autumn morning, Sarah noticed something unusual—a young fox standing still near the edge of the forest. Her heart raced with excitement. “This could be my chance!” she thought, quickly pulling out her camera. She adjusted the lens and began to move closer, careful not to make any sudden movements. The fox didn’t run away; it just stood there, its gaze fixed on her. Sarah’s fingers trembled as she framed the shot, imagining the stunning image she could capture—the fox’s brilliant red coat against the golden autumn landscape. As she peered through the viewfinder, she noticed something strange. The fox’s front paw was raised slightly, and its body seemed tense. She zoomed in and gasped—the paw was injured, possibly caught in a trap. The fox’s stillness wasn’t an opportunity for a perfect shot; it was a sign of pain and fear. Sarah’s excitement turned to concern in an instant. Her heart tightened as she looked into the animal’s eyes, seeing the silent plea(恳求)for help. Her photographer’s instinct urged her to take the shot—it would be powerful, emotional, and perfect. But a stronger voice inside her whispered that some moments weren’t meant to be captured; they were meant to be acted upon. With trembling hands, she lowered her camera and reached for her phone instead to call the local wildlife rescue team. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Moments later, some rescue workers arrived with equipment and medicine. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ Being a volunteer for the rescue team, Sarah never forgot her dream. _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ _______________________________________________________________________________ 第1页 共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。听下面对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话仅读一遍。Mike came back from london last monday.

C【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段前两句“In Berry’s latest Digital Illustration class, you’ll be surprised and delighted by how just a few simple steps can result in a custom piece of art. It’s a great creative skill to learn for creating wedding invitations, holiday cards, birthday gifts, or wall art for your home.”可知,在Berry的课程中,你可以学习制作艺术品,可以学习制作婚礼请柬、节日卡片、生日礼物,可以为自己的家制作墙壁艺术品,结合选项可知,你能学到的技能可能是制作圣诞卡片。故选C。  23.

A【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The sun emits a much higher intensity of blue light than human-made devices, of course, and it’s actually beneficial (当然,太阳发出的蓝光强度比人造设备发出的要强得多,而且它实际上是有益的)”可知,蓝光可以是有益的。故选A。 26. C【解析】细节理解题。 ①根据题干中的关键词“Australian studies”可定位到第五段。 ②根据第五段中的“As for eye strain, a 2021 Australian study showed that those wearing the glasses did not experience less eye strain than those using clear glasses.”可知,戴防蓝光眼镜并不会减少眼疲劳。故选C。  27. B【解析】主旨大意题。 提出问题： Para. 1 防蓝光眼镜有用吗? 分析问题： Para. 2—4 蓝光对我们的心情、警觉度和醒睡周期有好处,夜晚的蓝光会抑制褪黑素的分泌。                   Para. 5 戴防蓝光眼镜并不会减少眼疲劳。 解决问题： Para. 6 戴防蓝光眼镜没有坏处,也没有明显的好处。要想缓解眼疲劳,需要多休息,使用润眼液。 根据文章脉络可知,文章谈论了防蓝光眼镜是否有用的问题,B项“防蓝光眼镜:好还是坏”最适合作为文章标题。故选B。 【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，文章主要介绍了一位14岁的弗吉尼亚州的学生发明了一款治疗最常见的皮肤癌——黑色素瘤的肥皂,赢得了“美国顶尖青年科学家”的称号和25,000美元的现金奖励,并计划在今后五年内建立一个非营利性组织来推广这项创新。 28.

C【解析】主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“While similar methods are available for skin cancer treatments, his solution is a more affordable alternative, especially for those in developing countries.”可知,虽然类似的方法也可用于皮肤癌治疗,但他的解决方案是一种更实惠的替代方案,特别是对于发展中国家的人来说。由此可知,第三段主要谈论肥皂的优势。故选C。 30. B【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段中的“But to accomplish his goal, he will have to get his treatment through clinical trials, obtain a temporary patent and have it licensed by the Food and Drug Administration.”可知,为了实现他的目标,他将必须让他的治疗方法通过临床试验,获得临时专利,并获得美国食品和药物管理局的许可。因此,Bekele的下一个计划是得到当局的批准。故选B。 31.

A【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The multitalented, Renaissance genius Leonardo da Vinci over 500 years ago wrote down his ‘rule of trees’, which describes the way he thought that trees branch.”可知,达·芬奇的树木规则描述了他认为树木如何分枝,从而帮助他绘制出现实的风景画。因此,达·芬奇的树木规则关注的是树枝如何生长,即关注树枝的生长方式。故选A。 33. A【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Unlike Leonardo’s guess, the updated rule worked well when the team checked slim birches as well as strong oaks.”可知,与列奥纳多的猜测不同,更新后的规则在研究团队检查纤细的桦树和强壮的橡树时都很有效。由此可推断,第三段提到桦树和橡树是为了说明新规则的正确性。故选A。 34. C【解析】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“To test their rule, the research team took photographs of trees from a variety of species and analyzed the branches to confirm that the real-world patterns matched the predictions.”可知,为了测试他们的规则,研究团队拍摄了各种树木的照片并分析了树枝,以确认现实世界的模式与预测相符。由此可知,研究人员通过分析树枝的图片证明这一新规则。故选C。 35. B【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“‘Note,’ the researchers write, ‘that not a single tree was harmed during these experiments.’”可知,这些实验中没有一棵树受到伤害。由此可推断,这里强调了对树木的保护。故选B。 第二节 （共 5小题；每小题 2.5 分， 满分 12.5分） 【语篇解读】本文是一篇说明文，阐述了文学在塑造思想、回望过去、认知自我、了解心灵及理解文化等方面的重要价值。 36.

Dear Lucy, I’m happy to tell you I got first prize in our school’s old object transformation competition last week! My work was a lamp made of an old glass bottle and some used cloth. I painted the bottle blue with white star patterns, and sewed the cloth into a cover. It looks really nice when lit, casting soft star-shaped shadows. The competition taught me to be creative and see value in old things. Old things aren’t useless — with a little creativity, we can reuse them, cut down on waste, and do our part for the planet. What a great experience it was! Yours, Li Hua 第2节 （满分 25 分） 67. Moments later, some rescue workers arrived with equipment and medicine. After quickly assessing the situation, they approached the fox cautiously, bent down and talked softly to calm the frightened animal. Then the fox’s paw was carefully released from the trap. No sooner had they applied medicine to the wound than the fox showed signs of relief. Sarah, watching the rescue unfold before her eyes, realized this was far more precious than any photograph she could have taken. Right then, Sarah decided to join the rescue team as a volunteer. Being a volunteer for the rescue team, Sarah never forgot her dream. Profoundly moved by the fox incident, she committed herself to combining her passion for photography with her newfound mission. Whenever she went into the forest with her camera, she kept an eye out for any animals in need. Her photos evolved to tell deeper stories — carrying both beauty and conservation. Little did she know that her decision to help that fox would transform her photography and her entire perspective on the relationship between humans and nature. 第1页 共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
