On a cold morning in Copenhagen, a unique three-wheeled bike rolls through the streets. Instead of groceries, its large wooden box is filled with books. Not just any books, but a carefully selected collection of works in Icelandic. This is the mobile bookshop of Jón Gudnason, a former actor and teacher from Iceland.
Gudnason started his unusual business out of a sense of nostalgia (怀旧) and a very practical need. “I missed the sound of my own language,” he said, explaining how difficult it was to find Icelandic books in Denmark. He noticed other Icelanders living in the city felt the same cultural longing. So he decided to do something about it.
He bought the tricycle, built the bookcases himself, and began sourcing books directly from Icelandic publishers. His business model is simple: he cycles to different spots in the city each day, announces his location on social media, and opens his shop for a few hours. The target customers are a mix of homesick Icelanders, curious Danish people, and tourists attracted by the sight.
One of his regular customers, Anna Þóra, an Icelander who has lived in Copenhagen for a decade, said visiting Gudnason’s bike was like a mini cultural recharge. “Seeing these books, smelling the paper... it’s a direct tie to home. It’s more than just shopping; it’s a feeling.”
But is it a workable business? Gudnason admits the profits are slim. The books are expensive to import, and his customer base is small. “This will never make me rich,” he laughed. “But that is never the goal. For me, success is seeing a child get excited about an Icelandic children’s book, or helping a student find a novel for their studies.”
His effort has turned him into a local celebrity and a preserver of culture. He’s not just selling books; he’s selling a piece of Iceland. He offers recommendations, discusses literature, and has become a walking, talking cultural ambassador.
4. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. The unusual business.
B. The Danish language.
C. The shared homesickness.
D. The Icelandic lifestyle.
5 What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How the bookshop runs.
B. Who funds the bookshop.
C. What inspires the business.
D. Where the books come from.
6. What did Anna Þóra think of visiting the bookshop?
A. It helped her fit in with the locals.
B. It connected her to her cultural roots.
C. It brought book buyers convenience.
D. It offered an escape from the city life.
7. Which of the following best describes Gudnason?
A. A cultural messenger.
B. A patriotic publisher.
C. A knowledgeable teacher.
D. A conventional businessman.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了冰岛人Jón Gudnason在哥本哈根用三轮车经营移动书店的故事。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“He noticed other Icelanders living in the city felt the same cultural longing. So he decided to do something about it.(他注意到其他住在这座城市的冰岛人也有着同样的文化乡愁。于是他决定为此做点什么)”可知,此处的it指代的是前文提到的冰岛人共同的思乡之情。故选C。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“He bought the tricycle, built the bookcases himself, and began sourcing books directly from Icelandic publishers. His business model is simple: he cycles to different spots in the city each day, announces his location on social media, and opens his shop for a few hours. The target customers are a mix of homesick Icelanders, curious Danish people, and tourists attracted by the sight.(他买了三轮车,自己做了书架,然后开始直接从冰岛出版商那里采购书籍。他的商业模式很简单:每天骑着三轮车到城市的不同地点,在社交媒体上公布自己的位置,然后开店几个小时。目标客户包括思念家乡的冰岛人、好奇的丹麦人以及被这一景象吸引的游客)”可知,第三段主要讲述了书店是如何运营的。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“One of his regular customers, Anna Þóra, an Icelander who has lived in Copenhagen for a decade, said visiting Gudnason’s bike was like a mini cultural recharge. “Seeing these books, smelling the paper... it’s a direct tie to home. It’s more than just shopping; it’s a feeling.”(他的老顾客之一,已经在哥本哈根生活了十年的冰岛人Anna Þóra说,参观Gudnason的三轮车就像是一次小型文化充电。“看到这些书,闻到纸张的味道……这直接与家相连。这不仅仅是购物;这是一种感觉。”)”可知,Anna Þóra认为参观书店让她与自己的文化根源联系在了一起。故选B。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“His effort has turned him into a local celebrity and a preserver of culture. He’s not just selling books; he’s selling a piece of Iceland. He offers recommendations, discusses literature, and has become a walking, talking cultural ambassador.(他的努力使他成为当地的名人和文化守护者。他不仅仅是在卖书;他是在卖冰岛的一部分。他提供建议,讨论文学,已经成为一个行走的、会说话的文化大使)”可推知,Gudnason是一个文化使者。故选A。
C
“I want that one — no, that one, over there.” This intention can be said with words, but it’s just as easily communicated through gestures such as pointing and raising your eyebrows. Humans, however, aren’t the only ones who move our bodies to express meaning. Now, research published in Royal Society Open Science has added another animal to the list — elephants. They are also capable of making specific gestures to communicate their desire.
To understand the research, think of how humans get others to do what they want. Lead researcher Dr. Vesta Eleuteri, a behavioral biologist at the University of Vienna, described the essential steps — checking for an audience, signaling, continuing to signal in different ways if the first signal doesn’t get through, and stopping the signaling once the goal is achieved. These are all signs of intentionally using gesture to make others act.
With this understanding, the researchers designed an experiment to see if elephants show similar intentionality. The animals were shown two trays (托盘) just out of reach — one empty, the other full of apples — and interacted with a human experimenter. The scientists ended up observing 38 different gesture types, which the elephants performed only when an experimenter was present and looking at them, often using their trunks (象鼻) to gesture in the direction of the full tray. “It was clear that they wanted the apples,” Eleuteri said. “They’re very expressive.”
However, when the apples on the tray were eaten up, the elephants in the study didn’t keep gesturing. This is because the animals got used to being fed during the training and interpreted being given the empty tray as the “end” of the feeding.
“Further work with wild animals will be required,” Dr. Eleuteri said. Scientists are still trying to figure out how wild elephants influence each other through gestures in the wild. Observing these natural interactions offers crucial clues to the understanding of this gestural language.
8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By providing data.
B. By listing examples.
C. By quoting an expert.
D. By making a comparison.
9. Why are humans’ intentional gestures introduced in paragraph 2?
A. To show research limitations.
B. To state the research purpose.
C. To explain the research basis.
D. To outline the research process.
10. In which case will an elephant gesture according to the study?
A. An experimenter with a full tray.
B. An experimenter with an empty tray.
C. A full tray without experimenters present.
D. An empty tray without experimenters present.
11. What will the follow-up study focus on?
A. Elephants’ adaptation to the wild.
B. Wild elephants’ gestures in nature.
C. Elephants’ eating habits in the wild.
D. Wild elephants’ interactions with humans.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究发现大象能通过特定肢体动作传递意愿,还介绍了相关实验及后续研究方向。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Humans, however, aren’t the only ones who move our bodies to express meaning. Now, research published in Royal Society Open Science has added another animal to the list—elephants.(然而,并非只有人类会通过身体动作表达意思。如今,发表在《英国皇家学会开放科学》上的一项研究又将另一种动物列入了这一名单——大象。)”可知,作者先说明人类可通过肢体动作表达意图,再指出大象也具备该能力,通过对比的方式引出文章主题。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“To understand the research, think of how humans get others to do what they want. Lead researcher Dr. Vesta Eleuteri, a behavioral biologist at the University of Vienna, described the essential steps — checking for an audience, signaling, continuing to signal in different ways if the first signal doesn’t get through, and stopping the signaling once the goal is achieved. These are all signs of intentionally using gesture to make others act.(为了理解这项研究,可以想想人类是如何让别人按自己的意愿行事的。维也纳大学的行为生物学家、首席研究员维斯特·埃莱乌泰里博士描述了几个关键步骤:确认受众、发出信号,如果第一个信号没有起到作用,就用不同的方式继续发出信号,一旦目标达成便停止发信号。这些都是有意使用示意动作促使他人行动的迹象。)”可知,介绍人类的有意手势,是为了阐释本次研究判断大象是否有意图示意动作的研究依据。故选C项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The animals were shown two trays (托盘) just out of reach—one empty, the other full of apples — and interacted with a human experimenter.The scientists ended up observing 38 different gesture types, which the elephants performed only when an experimenter was present and looking at them, often using their trunks to gesture in the direction of the full tray.(研究人员向这些动物展示了两个它们够不着的托盘,一个是空的,另一个装满了苹果,然后让它们与一名人类实验者进行互动。科学家们最终观察到了38种不同的手势类型,这些示意动作只有在实验人员在场并看着它们时,大象才会做出,它们通常会用鼻子朝装满苹果的托盘方向做手势。)”可知,只有有实验人员在场且托盘装满苹果时,大象才会做出示意动作。故选A项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的““Further work with wild animals will be required,” Dr. Eleuteri said. Scientists are still trying to figure out how wild elephants influence each other through gestures in the wild. Observing these natural interactions offers crucial clues to the understanding of this gestural language.(“还需要对野生动物开展进一步研究,” 埃莱乌泰里博士说。科学家们仍在努力弄清楚野生大象在野外是如何通过示意动作相互影响的。观察这些自然互动,为理解这种示意动作语言提供了关键线索。)”可知,后续研究将聚焦于野生大象在自然环境中的示意动作交流。故选B项。
D
“A city is not a problem to be solved,” said Marshall Brown, associate professor in Princeton’s School of Architecture. In Brown’s view, a city is a reflection of our social, political and cultural values. New technologies are not so much solutions as opportunities. The technology that has been on Brown’s mind lately is the autonomous vehicle.
Although today’s automakers are investing vast resources into self-driving cars they’ve given far less thought to the design of the physical urban infrastructure (基础设施) to support them. Take road signs as an example. They were made to tell human drivers what to do. But driverless cars don’t need signs—they can get instructions from the road itself. Autonomous vehicles can navigate (导航) through information embedded in roads, by recognizing patterns, textures or materials. “We store information in the pavement (路面), and this is environmentally sound, and is more beautiful, which is something that we care about in architecture,” Brown said.
Another question is how autonomous vehicles will change the nature of pavement. Traditionally, the pavement steals spaces that could be covered in green spaces. But by making parking mobile, autonomous vehicles allow us to reduce the pavement footprint in the city. Parking by definition is fixed. Personal automobiles mostly sit unused while their owners are at work in the urban environment. However, when cars can drive themselves, they can navigate to lots far from urban centers, reducing the need for large, fixed parking spaces in valuable downtown areas.
With autonomous driving, one change is that mobility will no longer be limited to people with driver’s licenses. People who cannot drive—or children who want to go to a friend’s house—can just hire driverless vehicles that will take them to their destinations. “Once you start thinking even a little bit about the impact of these technologies,” Brown said, “it explodes into thinking about everything at once.”
12. What is Marshall Brown’s view on new technologies?
A. A problem to be solved.
B. An opportunity for change.
C. A threat to urban design.
D. A sign of social development.
13. How do autonomous vehicles navigate according to the text?
A. By using digital maps.
B. By following road signs.
C. By obeying drivers’ instructions.
D. By reading the road itself.
14. What might be a consequence of mobile parking?
A. Reduced traffic jams.
B. Less travel time.
C. Increased green coverage.
D. More parking lots.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What Problems New Technology Might Bring
B. Why Cities Should Welcome More Future Cars
C. What Driverless Cars Could Mean for Environment
D. How Autonomous Vehicles Could Reshape Our Cities
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍自动驾驶汽车为城市基建、空间利用和出行方式带来的变革及对城市的重塑作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“New technologies are not so much solutions as opportunities.(新技术与其说是解决方案,不如说是机遇。)”可知,Marshall Brown认为新技术是带来改变的机遇。故选B项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But driverless cars don’t need signs—they can get instructions from the road itself. Autonomous vehicles can navigate through information embedded in roads, by recognizing patterns, textures or materials.(但无人驾驶汽车不需要路标——它们可以从道路本身获取指令。自动驾驶汽车可以通过识别道路的图案、纹理或材质,从嵌入道路的信息中进行导航。)”可知,自动驾驶汽车通过读取道路本身的信息来导航。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Traditionally, the pavement steals spaces that could be covered in green spaces. But by making parking mobile, autonomous vehicles allow us to reduce the pavement footprint in the city.(传统上,路面占据了本可以被绿地覆盖的空间。但通过实现移动停车,自动驾驶汽车让我们能够减少城市中的路面占地面积。)”可知,移动停车能减少路面面积,原本被路面占据的空间可变成绿地,进而增加绿色覆盖率。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,文章依次介绍了自动驾驶汽车让城市可取消道路标识、减少路面面积增加绿地、打破驾照对出行的限制等内容,核心围绕自动驾驶汽车对城市基建、空间、出行方式的重塑展开。D项“自动驾驶汽车如何重塑我们的城市”能概括全文主旨。为最佳标题。故选D项。

I know I’m not alone. For many Chinese immigrants, tomato and egg is the first dish we master once we leave home. ____17____ It only began appearing in Chinese kitchens in the 1940s, yet it somehow became the most “default (默认的)” of home-cooked meals.
____18____ Some will claim no version (版本) tops their mother’s. Others chase down hidden menu at high-end restaurants or drive across Chengdu just for the plate everyone says is “the best”.
For all its simplicity, with just tomatoes, eggs, oil, and salt, some versions do taste better than others. ____19____ This summer, though, with late-season tomatoes at their peak, I decided to test what actually makes a difference. I cooked plate after plate, sometimes five or six times within two weeks. At one point, I threw a batch (一批) into the fridge, determined never to see tomato and egg again. ____20____
A. They were an absolute treat.
B. Tomato and egg stir-fry was one of them.
C. The dish often pulled me back to my childhood.
D. The surprising fact is that the dish itself is relatively young.

F. Yet the next day, I reheated it, paired it with steamed rice, and ate up the whole thing.
G. For years, I made mine with the cheapest supermarket tomatoes I could find in Germany.
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. E 19. G 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者回忆了自己作为四川人,在移居德国后因思乡而学会烹饪,并从一道“西红柿炒蛋”入手,进而探讨了这道家常菜对于海外华人的特殊意义、其普及与个性化的特质,以及作者本人在尝试不同做法过程中的感悟与体验。
【16题详解】
上文“I grew up in Sichuan, but I only learned to cook surprisingly late in life, after moving to Germany when I began missing the taste of home. My first adult kitchen was in a small shared flat in Berlin — Mitte. Out of necessity, I turned to Xiachufang, a Chinese user-generated recipe (菜谱) app, and taught myself a handful of dishes. (我在四川长大,但我学会做饭晚得出奇,是在搬到德国后,因为开始想念家乡的味道。我第一个属于成年人的厨房在柏林米特区的一个合租小公寓里。出于需要,我转向了“下厨房”这个中国用户自创的食谱App,自学了几道菜)”讲述了作者在德国开始自学做菜的背景。B选项“Tomato and egg stir-fry was one of them. (西红柿炒蛋就是其中之一)”顺承上文,明确了“a handful of dishes”中的一道具体菜式,引出了后文将要围绕其展开的深入回忆和讨论。下文“And over the next decade, I must have made it at least fifty, if not a hundred times. (在接下来的十年里,我肯定至少做了它五十次,如果没有一百次的话)”中的“it”正是指代B选项中的“Tomato and egg stir-fry”。故选B项。
【17题详解】
上文“For many Chinese immigrants, tomato and egg is the first dish we master once we leave home. (对于许多中国移民来说,西红柿炒蛋是我们离开家后掌握的第一道菜)”指出了这道菜对海外华人的普遍意义。下文“It only began appearing in Chinese kitchens in the 1940s, yet it somehow became the most “default (默认的)” of home-cooked meals. (它直到20世纪40年代才开始出现在中国厨房中,但不知怎地就成为了最“默认的”家常菜)”说明了这道菜历史相对较短但却非常普及。D选项“The surprising fact is that the dish itself is relatively young. (令人惊讶的事实是,这道菜本身的历史相对较年轻)”位于两者之间,既承接上文关于“第一道菜”的普遍性论述,又引出了下文对其历史起源的具体说明,起到了承上启下的作用。故选D项。
【18题详解】
下文“Some will claim no version (版本) tops their mother’s. Others chase down hidden menu at high-end restaurants or drive across Chengdu just for the plate everyone says is “the best”. (有些人会声称没有哪个版本能胜过他们妈妈做的。另一些人则会追逐高端餐厅里的隐藏菜单,或者驱车穿越成都就为了那道大家都说是“最好的”菜)”描述了人们对这道菜的两种极端态度:一种是高度个人化的(妈妈版最好),一种是追求极致的公认“最佳”。E选项“Today, tomato and egg are both universal and deeply personal. (如今,西红柿炒蛋既普遍存在,又极具个人色彩)”位于段首,作为本段的总起句,精准地概括了下文描述的两种现象所体现出的双重特性——普遍性(到处都有)和个人性(妈妈做的无可替代)。上下文形成“总—分”结构。故选E项。
【19题详解】
上文“For all its simplicity, with just tomatoes, eggs, oil, and salt, some versions do taste better than others. (尽管它很简单,只用西红柿、鸡蛋、油和盐,但有些版本确实比其他版本味道更好)”指出了简单材料下口味仍有差异。G选项“For years, I made mine with the cheapest supermarket tomatoes I could find in Germany. (多年来,我一直用我在德国能找到的最便宜的超市西红柿来做我的西红柿炒蛋)”顺承上文,以作者自身为例,说明了长期以来,他做的版本属于“others (其他版本)”之一,用的是普通便宜的食材,暗示这可能不是“taste better”的那个版本,为下文决定进行口味测试埋下伏笔。下文“This summer, though, with late-season tomatoes at their peak, I decided to test what actually makes a difference. (然而今年夏天,趁着晚季西红柿正当季,我决定测试一下到底是什么造成了差异)”中的“though”正是对G选项中长期使用便宜番茄做法的转折。故选G项。
【20题详解】
上文“I cooked plate after plate, sometimes five or six times within two weeks. At one point, I threw a batch (一批) into the fridge, determined never to see tomato and egg again. (我做了一盘又一盘,有时两周内做了五六次。有一次,我把一批倒进了冰箱,决心再也不做西红柿炒蛋了)”描述了作者因反复试做而感到极度厌倦,甚至决定放弃。F选项“Yet the next day, I reheated it, paired it with steamed rice, and ate up the whole thing. (然而第二天,我把它重新加热,配上米饭,吃得一干二净)”通过“Yet”形成强烈转折,生动地描绘了作者对这道菜矛盾而深沉的情感——尽管嘴上说厌倦,但身体和味蕾依然诚实,最终它依然是一道无法抗拒、能抚慰人心的家常美味。这个场景有力地总结了作者与这道菜之间纠缠又亲密的个人关系,给叙述增添了一个幽默而真实的结尾。故选F项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了安东尼奥因职业倦怠而转向“声音漫步”,引导人们在城市的喧嚣中聆听并发现隐藏的宁静之声,从而找到内心的平静。
【21题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:他们带着麦克风和耳机行动,他们的猎物不是动物,而是一种体验。A. story故事;B. fashion时尚;C. experience经历,体验;D. object物体。根据后文“I’ve learned to listen for peace in it. The birdsong after a fading siren (警笛). The gentle raindrops after a storm”和“But slowly, other sounds : the whisper of leaves, the faint laughter of a kid two blocks away. A sense of collective calm the group.”可知,安东尼奥他们捕捉的不是有形之物,而是通过聆听获得的内在感受与心灵体验。因此,experience最准确地概括了他们的追求。故选C项。
【22题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:他将这座城市描绘成一张声音的地图,而非地域的版图。A. sounds声音;B. smells气味;C. sights景象;D. tastes味道。根据前文“They move with microphones and headphones”以及后文“I’ve learned to listen for peace in it. The birdsong after a fading siren (警笛). The gentle raindrops after a storm.”可知,安东尼奥关注和探索的是城市的“声音”,而非其他感官体验,因此,他将城市视为由“声音”构成的地图。故选A项。
【23题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:他说:“大多数人只听到噪音——一种响亮、恼人的混合体。”A. surprising令人惊讶的;B. annoying令人恼火的;C. pleasant令人愉快的;D. scary可怕的。根据前文“noise”一词通常带有负面含义,以及后文“I’ve learned to listen for peace in it”他学会在其中寻找宁静形成对比可知,大多数人觉得城市噪音是“恼人的”。故选B项。
【24题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:这些都是宝藏。A. distractions干扰;B. memories记忆;C. warnings警告;D. treasures宝藏。根据前文安东尼奥所列举的“The birdsong after a fading siren (警笛). The gentle raindrops after a storm.”可推知,这些被他从喧嚣中分辨出的、带来宁静感的声音,对他而言是珍贵的事物,如同“宝藏”。故选D项。
【25题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:他的旅程始于他遭受职业倦怠之时。A. journey旅程;B. job工作;C. ambition抱负;D. experiment实验。根据后文“turned into a passion”和“small groups on “soundwalks,” guiding people to hear the city anew.”可知,这是他个人转变和探索的一段“旅程”。故选A项。
【26题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:他生活中无尽的噪音变得令人难以忍受。A. unbearable难以忍受的;B. incredible难以置信的;C. impossible不可能的;D. unnecessary不必要的。根据前文“suffered from burnout”可推知,无尽的噪音给他带来了巨大的压力和不适,以至于“难以忍受”。故选A项。
【27题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:他现在带领小团体进行“声音漫步”,引导人们重新聆听城市。A. joins加入;B. interviews采访;C. leads带领;D. studies研究。根据后文“guiding people to hear the city anew”,可知他是活动的组织者,所以是“带领”一个小团队。故选C项。
【28题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:在最近的一次漫步中,他要求参与者站在一棵树下不动。A. show表演;B. adventure冒险;C. walk漫步;D. drive驾驶。根据前文他带领的是“soundwalks(声音漫步)”,以及后文参与者“stand still under a tree”这一活动场景可知,这是他们的一次“漫步”。故选C项。
【29题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:他指示道:“闭上眼睛。”A. explained解释;B. commented评论;C. recalled回忆;D. instructed指示,吩咐。根据前文“he asked participants to stand still”以及引号内“Close your eyes”的明确动作指令可知,他是在“指示”参与者。故选D项。
【30题详解】
考查副词词义辨析。句意:起初,只有城市沉闷的噪音。A. Strangely奇怪地;B. Initially起初;C. Secretly秘密地;D. Instantly立即。根据后文“But slowly, other sounds : the whisper of leaves, the faint laughter of a kid two blocks away. ”可知,前后构成时间上的转折,因此“起初”人们只能听到城市噪音。故选B项。
【31题详解】
考查动词词义辨析。句意:但是慢慢地,其他声音出现了:树叶的沙沙声,两个街区外孩子隐约的笑声。A. ceased停止;B. faded褪色,消失;C. traveled旅行;D. appeared出现。根据前文“there was just the dull noise of the city”和后文列举的“whisper of leaves”、“faint laughter”可知,这些细微的声音是逐渐被感知到的,因此是“出现”。故选D项。
【32题详解】
考查动词短语辨析。句意:一种集体的平静感笼罩了小组。A. broke into闯入;B. took apart拆开;C. settled over笼罩,降临;D. ruled out排除。根据前文描述参与者专注于聆听的状态,以及“A sense of collective calm”可推知,参与者暂时忘却焦虑的感受,一种宁静的氛围“笼罩”了小组;动词短语settle over有“(安静、平静等)降临、笼罩”之意,符合语境。故选C项。
【33题详解】
考查形容词词义辨析。句意:一位参与者后来说:“有十分钟,我不再为我的电子邮件感到焦虑。我只是……在这里。”A. confused困惑的;B. stressed焦虑的,有压力的;C. curious好奇的;D. excited兴奋的。根据前文“A sense of collective calm”可推知,参与者感受到了平静,所以暂时摆脱了日常工作带来的“焦虑”,而“emails”正是繁琐工作的象征。故选B项。
【34题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意:安东尼奥解释说:“我们发现的每一个微小、安静的声音都是一个提醒,提醒我们宁静就隐藏在在显而易见之处,等待着我们去倾听。”A. reminder提醒;B. impression印象;C. promise承诺;D. assumption假设。这些被发现的声音,其作用在于“提醒”人们宁静的存在;后文“that peace is hidden in plain...”是reminder的同位语从句,说明提醒的内容。故选A项。
【35题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意同上。A. living生活;B. hearing听觉;C. understanding理解;D. thinking思考。全文围绕“倾听(listening)”和“声音(sounds)”展开,因此宁静就隐藏在“听觉”所及之处;短语“in plain hearing”是仿拟“in plain sight”(在显而易见之处),意为“就在听得见的地方”。故选B项。

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Along the southern edge of the Maowusu Desert, an apple harvest is in full swing. Farmers move through trees, their baskets filling with fruit that shines in the warm autumn light. It’s ___36___ scene of abundance (丰盛) that would have been unthinkable just twenty years ago. The transformation is part of a quiet agricultural revolution—the northward march of Shaanxi’s apple belt, extending hundreds of kilometers into ___37___ was once an unyielding desert.
Shaanxi’s traditional apple-growing areas were concentrated in the area north of the Weihe River. In recent years, the planting zone ___38___ (expand) northward all the way to the Maowusu Desert, which means one in every four apples ___39___ (harvest) in China now comes from Shaanxi.
The story of this expansion is written in the weathered face of 85-year-old Zhang Binggui. In 2003, after retiring, he ___40___ (rent) sandy land in Yulin, determined to make something grow. His early ___41___ (experiment) with grapes and date trees ended in failure, drawing laughter from neighbors. However, Zhang’s perseverance (毅力) led him ___42___ (shift) his focus to apples. Through years of trial and error, today, he ___43___ (eventual) pioneered techniques for sandy soil, increased sales through e-commerce ___44___ brought their sandy land apples to the national market.
This northward march is also a story written by the changing climate. Between 2010 and 2024, the city’s average yearly rainfall rose. Once known ____45____ its vast stretches of shifting dunes (沙丘), the Maowusu Desert is now turning green.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了近年来陕西苹果种植带北扩至毛乌素沙漠,85 岁老人张炳贵改良沙地种苹果,气候改善与不懈努力让荒漠渐成丰收之地。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:这是一幅丰饶的景象,而在二十年前是难以想象的。scene是可数名词,此处表示“一幅丰收的景象”,是泛指概念,且scene以辅音音素开头,所以填不定冠词a。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:这种转变是农业悄然变革的一部分——陕西的苹果带向北推进,延伸数百公里,深入到曾经是一片坚不可摧的沙漠之中。分析句子可知,介词 into 后接宾语从句,从句中缺少主语,指代 “曾经是茫茫沙漠的地方”,需用连接代词 what 引导。故填what。
【38题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:近年来,种植区向北扩展,一直延伸到毛乌素沙漠,这意味着中国每四颗收获的苹果中就有一颗来自陕西。时间状语 in recent years 是现在完成时的标志,主语 the planting zone 是单数,所以填has expanded。故填has expanded。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:近年来,种植区向北扩展,一直延伸到毛乌素沙漠,这意味着中国每四颗收获的苹果中就有一颗来自陕西。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰apples,apples和harvest之间是被动关系(苹果被采摘),需用过去分词作后置定语。故填harvested。
【40题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:2003 年退休后,他租下了榆林的沙质土地,决心要有所种植。时间状语 in 2003 是一般过去时的标志,描述过去发生的动作,此处为一般过去时。故填rented。
【41题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意:他早期对葡萄和枣树的试验以失败告终,引得邻居们哈哈大笑。early是形容词,后接名词;后文提到grapes and date trees两种作物的尝试,是复数概念,所以填experiments。故填experiments。
【42题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:然而,张炳贵的坚持不懈使他将注意力转向了苹果。此处为固定搭配lead sb. to do sth. 意为“促使某人做某事”,所以为动词不定式形式。故填to shift。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:经过多年的尝试与摸索,如今他终于开创了适用于沙质土壤的种植技术,通过电子商务提高了销售额,并将他们的沙质土地苹果推向了全国市场。此处修饰动词 pioneered,需用副词形式,所以填eventually(最终)。故填eventually。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意:经过多年的尝试与摸索,如今他终于开创了适用于沙质土壤的种植技术,通过电子商务提高了销售额,并将他们的沙质土地苹果推向了全国市场。根据句意可知,此处pioneered...、increased... 和 brought... 是三个并列的谓语动词,表顺承关系,所以为连词and的填入。故填and。
【45题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:曾经以广袤的流动沙丘而闻名的毛乌素沙漠如今正变得郁郁葱葱。此处为be known for是固定搭配,意为“作为……而闻名”。故填for。

47. 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。
It was a fresh spring morning. Johnny stood on the top of Broomstick Hill and took great, happy gulps (大口吸) of the sunny air and the cool smell of new things growing. It was not a day for sitting around. No sir. Johnny was off for a hike and a day of adventure! He threw over his shoulders his backpack, dug his hands in his pockets and started down Broomstick Hill.
When passing by the Professor’s house, he stopped short. There, on the water of the Professor’s pond were two wild ducks. They were black, with touches of brownish yellow, and they swam like anything.
“Hi, Johnny!” smiled the Professor, “I’ve tidied up the pond for these two newcomers. The fat one is Stuffer and the one standing on his head in the water is Diver.” Johnny smiled back. He liked seeing the Professor’s pond — it was always clear and bright. And he liked the Professor. Winter or summer, spring or fall, he was always doing something interesting, something to do with birds, or bugs or animals.
After saying goodbye to the Professor, Johnny started down the hill again. He walked on and on and then came a loud, unusual sound! Johnny looked up. There, high above his head, was a long line of ducks. They quacked (嘎嘎叫), beat the air with their wings and flew high and proud right through the blue spring sky. One lonely duck was left, though, for it could not fly.
Walking closer, Johnny saw its shiny brown feathers, a yellowish bill and a twisted (变形的) wing — that was why it could only swim slowly. But seeing it slide lazily on the water, Johnny knew it was the most beautiful duck he had ever seen. He took some biscuits from his backpack and dropped in the water. Next second, the duck stretched down and up and the biscuits were all gone! Then a Fourth-of-July-sort-of-idea exploded inside Johnny’s head. He would catch that duck and bring it home! It would be his own duck to keep!
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。
Johnny dropped his last piece of biscuit into the water.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the poor duck in his hands, Johnny sighed and headed to the Professor’s.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Johnny dropped his last piece of biscuit into the water. As the duck swam over to eat, Johnny slowly crept closer, his heart pounding with excitement. He held his breath, reaching out his hands gently but firmly. Just as the duck finished the biscuit, Johnny quickly grabbed it, careful not to hurt its twisted wing. The duck quacked loudly, struggling in his arms, but Johnny held on tight, whispering softly to calm it down. He was so happy, imagining the duck playing in his backyard, but then he noticed the sad look in its eyes and remembered the flock flying overhead.
With the poor duck in his hands, Johnny sighed and headed to the Professor’s. He knew the Professor would know what to do for the injured duck. When he arrived, the Professor was surprised but quickly took the duck, examining its wing carefully. “You did the right thing bringing it here,” the Professor said. “We can fix its wing and help it join its flock.” Johnny felt a warm glow in his chest, happier than if he’d kept the duck for himself. Every day after that, he visited the duck, helping the Professor feed it and change its bandage. Weeks later, when the duck finally flew away with its flock, Johnny waved proudly, knowing he’d given the best gift of all — freedom.
【解析】
【导语】本文以动物为线索展开,讲述春日Johnny远足时偶遇一只有着受伤翅膀的鸭子,被它吸引后想要将鸭子带回家饲养。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Johnny把最后一块饼干扔进了水里。”可知,第一段可描写Johnny用饼干引诱鸭子并成功抓住它,过程中鸭子挣扎让Johnny内心产生动摇。
②由第二段首句内容“Johnny抱着这只可怜的鸭子,叹了口气,朝教授家走去。”可知,第二段可描写Johnny带鸭子找教授求助,之后帮忙照顾鸭子,最终鸭子康复归队的经过。
2. 续写线索:投饼干诱鸭——成功抓住鸭子——内心动摇改去教授家——教授救治鸭子——Johnny帮忙照料——鸭子康复归队
3. 词汇激活:
行为类
①悄悄靠近:creep closer/sneak up
②抓住:grab/catch/seize
③小声说:whisper/speak in a low voice/murmur
情绪类
①温柔地:gently/softly/tenderly
②惊讶的:surprised/astonished
【点睛】[高分句型1] As the duck swam over to eat, Johnny slowly crept closer, his heart pounding with excitement.(运用了as引导的时间状语从句和独立主格结构作伴随状语)
[高分句型2] He was so happy, imagining the duck playing in his backyard, but then he noticed the sad look in its eyes and remembered the flock flying overhead.(运用了现在分词imagining作伴随状语)

On a cold morning in Copenhagen, a unique three-wheeled bike rolls through the streets. Instead of groceries, its large wooden box is filled with books. Not just any books, but a carefully selected collection of works in Icelandic. This is the mobile bookshop of Jón Gudnason, a former actor and teacher from Iceland.
Gudnason started his unusual business out of a sense of nostalgia (怀旧) and a very practical need. “I missed the sound of my own language,” he said, explaining how difficult it was to find Icelandic books in Denmark. He noticed other Icelanders living in the city felt the same cultural longing. So he decided to do something about it.
He bought the tricycle, built the bookcases himself, and began sourcing books directly from Icelandic publishers. His business model is simple: he cycles to different spots in the city each day, announces his location on social media, and opens his shop for a few hours. The target customers are a mix of homesick Icelanders, curious Danish people, and tourists attracted by the sight.
One of his regular customers, Anna Þóra, an Icelander who has lived in Copenhagen for a decade, said visiting Gudnason’s bike was like a mini cultural recharge. “Seeing these books, smelling the paper... it’s a direct tie to home. It’s more than just shopping; it’s a feeling.”
But is it a workable business? Gudnason admits the profits are slim. The books are expensive to import, and his customer base is small. “This will never make me rich,” he laughed. “But that is never the goal. For me, success is seeing a child get excited about an Icelandic children’s book, or helping a student find a novel for their studies.”

“I want that one — no, that one, over there.” This intention can be said with words, but it’s just as easily communicated through gestures such as pointing and raising your eyebrows. Humans, however, aren’t the only ones who move our bodies to express meaning. Now, research published in Royal Society Open Science has added another animal to the list — elephants. They are also capable of making specific gestures to communicate their desire.
To understand the research, think of how humans get others to do what they want. Lead researcher Dr. Vesta Eleuteri, a behavioral biologist at the University of Vienna, described the essential steps — checking for an audience, signaling, continuing to signal in different ways if the first signal doesn’t get through, and stopping the signaling once the goal is achieved. These are all signs of intentionally using gesture to make others act.
With this understanding, the researchers designed an experiment to see if elephants show similar intentionality. The animals were shown two trays (托盘) just out of reach — one empty, the other full of apples — and interacted with a human experimenter. The scientists ended up observing 38 different gesture types, which the elephants performed only when an experimenter was present and looking at them, often using their trunks (象鼻) to gesture in the direction of the full tray. “It was clear that they wanted the apples,” Eleuteri said. “They’re very expressive.”
However, when the apples on the tray were eaten up, the elephants in the study didn’t keep gesturing. This is because the animals got used to being fed during the training and interpreted being given the empty tray as the “end” of the feeding.
“Further work with wild animals will be required,” Dr. Eleuteri said. Scientists are still trying to figure out how wild elephants influence each other through gestures in the wild. Observing these natural interactions offers crucial clues to the understanding of this gestural language.
8. How does the author introduce the topic in paragraph 1?
A. By providing data.
B. By listing examples.
C. By quoting an expert.
D. By making a comparison.
9. Why are humans’ intentional gestures introduced in paragraph 2?
A. To show research limitations.
B. To state the research purpose.
C. To explain the research basis.
D. To outline the research process.
10. In which case will an elephant gesture according to the study?
A. An experimenter with a full tray.
B. An experimenter with an empty tray.
C. A full tray without experimenters present.
D. An empty tray without experimenters present.
11. What will the follow-up study focus on?
A. Elephants’ adaptation to the wild.
B. Wild elephants’ gestures in nature.
C. Elephants’ eating habits in the wild.
D. Wild elephants’ interactions with humans.
D
“A city is not a problem to be solved,” said Marshall Brown, associate professor in Princeton’s School of Architecture. In Brown’s view, a city is a reflection of our social, political and cultural values. New technologies are not so much solutions as opportunities. The technology that has been on Brown’s mind lately is the autonomous vehicle.
Although today’s automakers are investing vast resources into self-driving cars, they’ve given far less thought to the design of the physical urban infrastructure (基础设施) to support them. Take road signs as an example. They were made to tell human drivers what to do. But driverless cars don’t need signs—they can get instructions from the road itself. Autonomous vehicles can navigate (导航) through information embedded in roads, by recognizing patterns, textures or materials. “We store information in the pavement (路面), and this is environmentally sound, and is more beautiful, which is something that we care about in architecture,” Brown said.
Another question is how autonomous vehicles will change the nature of pavement. Traditionally, the pavement steals spaces that could be covered in green spaces. But by making parking mobile, autonomous vehicles allow us to reduce the pavement footprint in the city. Parking by definition is fixed. Personal automobiles mostly sit unused while their owners are at work in the urban environment. However, when cars can drive themselves, they can navigate to lots far from urban centers, reducing the need for large, fixed parking spaces in valuable downtown areas.
With autonomous driving, one change is that mobility will no longer be limited to people with driver’s licenses. People who cannot drive—or children who want to go to a friend’s house—can just hire driverless vehicles that will take them to their destinations. “Once you start thinking even a little bit about the impact of these technologies,” Brown said, “it explodes into thinking about everything at once.”
12. What is Marshall Brown’s view on new technologies?
A. A problem to be solved.
B. An opportunity for change.
C. A threat to urban design.
D. A sign of social development.
13. How do autonomous vehicles navigate according to the text?
A. By using digital maps.
B. By following road signs.
C. By obeying drivers’ instructions.
D. By reading the road itself.
14. What might be a consequence of mobile parking?
A. Reduced traffic jams.
B. Less travel time.
C. Increased green coverage.
D. More parking lots.
15. Which can be a suitable title for the text?
A. What Problems New Technology Might Bring
B. Why Cities Should Welcome More Future Cars
C. What Driverless Cars Could Mean for Environment
D. How Autonomous Vehicles Could Reshape Our Cities

I grew up in Sichuan, but I only learned to cook surprisingly late in life, after moving to Germany when I began missing the taste of home. My first adult kitchen was in a small shared flat in Berlin — Mitte. Out of necessity, I turned to Xiachufang, a Chinese user-generated recipe (菜谱) app, and taught myself a handful of dishes. ____16____ And over the next decade, I must have made it at least fifty, if not a hundred times.

____18____ Some will claim no version (版本) tops their mother’s. Others chase down hidden menu at high-end restaurants or drive across Chengdu just for the plate everyone says is “the best”.
For all its simplicity, with just tomatoes, eggs, oil, and salt, some versions do taste better than others. ____19____ This summer, though, with late-season tomatoes at their peak, I decided to test what actually makes a difference. I cooked plate after plate, sometimes five or six times within two weeks. At one point, I threw a batch (一批) into the fridge, determined never to see tomato and egg again. ____20____

47. 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。
It was a fresh spring morning. Johnny stood on the top of Broomstick Hill and took great, happy gulps (大口吸) of the sunny air and the cool smell of new things growing. It was not a day for sitting around. No sir. Johnny was off for a hike and a day of adventure! He threw over his shoulders his backpack, dug his hands in his pockets and started down Broomstick Hill.
When passing by the Professor’s house, he stopped short. There, on the water of the Professor’s pond were two wild ducks. They were black, with touches of brownish yellow, and they swam like anything.
“Hi, Johnny!” smiled the Professor, “I’ve tidied up the pond for these two newcomers. The fat one is Stuffer and the one standing on his head in the water is Diver.” Johnny smiled back. He liked seeing the Professor’s pond — it was always clear and bright. And he liked the Professor. Winter or summer, spring or fall, he was always doing something interesting, something to do with birds, or bugs or animals.
After saying goodbye to the Professor, Johnny started down the hill again. He walked on and on and then came a loud, unusual sound! Johnny looked up. There, high above his head, was a long line of ducks. They quacked (嘎嘎叫), beat the air with their wings and flew high and proud right through the blue spring sky. One lonely duck was left, though, for it could not fly.
Walking closer, Johnny saw its shiny brown feathers, a yellowish bill and a twisted (变形的) wing — that was why it could only swim slowly. But seeing it slide lazily on the water, Johnny knew it was the most beautiful duck he had ever seen. He took some biscuits from his backpack and dropped in the water. Next second, the duck stretched down and up and the biscuits were all gone! Then a Fourth-of-July-sort-of-idea exploded inside Johnny’s head. He would catch that duck and bring it home! It would be his own duck to keep!
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。
Johnny dropped his last piece of biscuit into the water.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
With the poor duck in his hands, Johnny sighed and headed to the Professor’s.
