This 3-day nature getaway will take you from ancient volcanic hills to coastlines and rainforests. Discover why Auckland is not only an urban hub but also a paradise for nature lovers. Day 1: Volcanoes & City Views Start your adventure at Maungawhau/Mount Eden, one of Auckland’s largest volcanic cones. Enjoy a gentle walk to the summit for views of the city and its harbors. Afterwards, visit Auckland Domain, the city’s oldest park, home to tranquil fern gardens and hidden walkways beneath ancient trees. Day 2: Island Escape & Coastal Walks Catch a ferry to Rangitoto Island, a volcanic island formed just 600 years ago. Hike to the top for unbeatable views, then explore lava caves and unique plant life. Return to the mainland and unwind at Mission Bay, where you can walk along the beach and watch the sunset over the sea. Day 3: Rainforests & Waterfalls Head west to the Waitākere Ranges, where rainforest meets black sand beaches. Take an easy walk along the Kitekite Track to reach a beautiful three-tiered waterfall. Afterwards, visit Piha Beach to feel the wild Tasman Sea breeze and admire the famous Lion Rock. Travel Tips: • Begin your hikes early to enjoy cooler temperatures and fewer visitors. • Wear comfortable walking shoes suitable for volcanic paths and forest trails. • Bring a reusable water bottle, sunscreen, and a windproof jacket—weather can change quickly near the coast. • Use ferries, buses, or rideshare services to reach different locations easily. 1.

At least, that was my plan when my parents announced we were spending a month in Willow Creek, a small town at the foot of the mountains. My teenage heart sank. My first morning there confirmed my fear. I missed my friends and the Wi-Fi. To avoid my family’s plan for hike, I wandered into the town’s old library. Mrs. Davies, the librarian, smiled at me. “Looking for an adventure?” she asked. “Not really,” I mumbled. She handed me a thick, dusty book titled Field Guide to Mountain Birds. “Sometimes,” she said, “adventure needs a little help finding you.” I took it just to be polite. The next day, bored, I flipped through the book. Colourful illustrations of birds I had never seen caught my eyes. On a whim (心血来潮), I decided to find it with a guidebook. The search was not easy. After hours of fruitless searching, I was ready to give up. All of a sudden, a flash of brilliant blue darted from a nearby tree and landed on a fence. It was the Bluebird. In that perfect moment, my boredom evaporated like morning mist. Since then, every morning, I’d grab my guidebook and head out. I saw woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and even a shy hawk. I started a notebook to record my sightings. I stopped checking my phone. The mountain became my new, and fascinating world. When the month ended, I was surprised to feel sad when leaving Willow Creek. I didn’t just bring home a suitcase; I brought home a new pair of eyes. The most wonderful discoveries aren’t found on a screen; they’re waiting quietly in the world, if only you decide to look up. 4. What was the author’s first feeling about spending the summer in Willow Creek? A. Excited and curious. B. Nervous but hopeful. C. Completely unconcerned. D. Disappointed and unwilling. 5. Why did the author take the book from Mrs. Davies? A. He wanted to impress the librarian. B. He was interested in bird watching. C. He did it out of politeness, not real interest. D. He was forced by his parents to read something. 6. What does the underlined word “evaporated” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. Filled the air. B. Became stronger. C. Appeared slowly. D. Disappeared quickly. 7. What does the story mainly tell us? A. Technology stops us from seeing real life. B. An unexpected interest can bring joy and growth. C. A librarian greatly changed a teenager’s summer plan. D. Mountain birds are the most beautiful creatures in the world. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲的是作者原本只想过沉迷电子游戏生活，在被父母带到山间小镇Willow Creek度过后，意外发现并爱上了观鸟活动，从而从无聊失望转变为热爱自然，获得了出乎意料的成长和人生新视角的故事。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“My teenage heart sank.(当时，我这颗少年的心一下子沉了下去。)”和第二段“My first morning there confirmed my fear. I missed my friends and the Wi-Fi.(到那儿后的第一个早晨，就证实了我的担忧。我想念朋友们，也怀念家里的无线网络。)”可知，作者对于在柳溪镇度过夏天的最初感受是失望且不情愿的。故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“I took it just to be polite.(我接过书，只是出于礼貌。)”可知，作者从戴维斯夫人那里拿了那本书是出于礼貌，故选C。 【6题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“like morning mist(像清晨的薄雾)”可知，作者的无聊像清晨的薄雾一样消散了，evaporated的意思是“消失，消散”，和disappeared quickly意思相近。故选D。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是倒数第三段“All of a sudden, a flash of brilliant blue darted from a nearby tree and landed on a fence. It was the Bluebird. In that perfect moment, my boredom evaporated like morning mist.(突然，一道亮丽的蓝色身影从附近的一棵树上疾飞而出，落在了篱笆上。是蓝鸟！就在那一刻，我的无聊感像清晨的薄雾一样迅速消散了。)”，倒数第二段“Since then, every morning, I’d grab my guidebook and head out. I saw woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and even a shy hawk. I started a notebook to record my sightings. I stopped checking my phone. The mountain became my new, and fascinating world.(从那以后，每天早上我都会抓起指南书出门。我看到了啄木鸟、蜂鸟，甚至还有一只害羞的鹰。我开始用一个笔记本记录自己的所见所闻。我不再查看手机。大山成了我全新且迷人的世界。)”和最后一段“I didn’t just bring home a suitcase; I brought home a new pair of eyes. The most wonderful discoveries aren’t found on a screen; they’re waiting quietly in the world, if only you decide to look up.(我带回家的可不只是一个行李箱，我还带回了一双全新的眼睛。最美妙的发现并不在屏幕上，它们就静静地在这个世界里等着你，只要你愿意抬头去看。)”可知，本文主要讲的是作者原本只想过沉迷电子游戏生活，在被父母带到山间小镇Willow Creek度过后，意外发现并爱上了观鸟活动，从而从无聊失望转变为热爱自然，获得了出乎意料的成长和人生新视角的故事，因此这个故事主要告诉我们一个意外的兴趣能带来快乐和成长。故选B。 C Food is far more than just fuel for our bodies. Around the world, what we eat and how we eat it are deeply tied to our cultures, histories, and identities. The dishes prepared in our homes often carry stories and meanings that have been passed down for generations. This means that sharing a meal can be like sharing a part of our family story. In many cultures, specific foods are central to festivals and family gatherings. For example, mooncakes are shared during China’s Mid-Autumn Festival to stand for reunion. In the United States, a roast turkey is the main dish for Thanksgiving dinner, representing thanks and the autumn harvest. People do not choose these foods by chance. They are a real link to shared values. Also, food is a strong sign of who we are. The spices in a curry, the things in a soup, or how bread is baked can tell you about a family’s background or a place’s weather. When people move to new cities or countries, they often bring their food customs with them. This is why big cities today have so many different kinds of restaurants and food markets. Trying a dish from another culture can be a good first step to understanding its people. In today’s world, food cultures meet and change. New mixed styles of cooking appear. But the main idea stays the same: food is a living part of our cultural history. It feeds not only our bodies but also our connections with others and with the past. In this way, food acts like a common language that everyone can understand. 8. According to the passage, what is food described as beyond nutrition (营养)? A. A modern trend. B. A tool for exercise. C. A carrier (载体) of culture. D. A way to save money. 9. Why are specific foods eaten during festivals? A. They improve health. B. They have shared values. C. They are cheapest to buy. D. They are quick to prepare. 10. What causes diverse food choices in big cities? A. People bring their food customs. B. Local markets sell new spices. C. Restaurants offer more variety. D. People try food from other cultures. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. The History of Food B. The Science of Nutrition C. Food as Cultural Heritage D. How to Cook Festive Meals 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是食物作为文化遗产载体的重要性及其影响。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Around the world, what we eat and how we eat it are deeply tied to our cultures, histories, and identities.(在世界各地，我们吃什么以及如何吃，都与我们的文化、历史和身份紧密相连。)”可知，除了营养之外，食物被描述成文化载体。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“People do not choose these foods by chance. They are a real link to shared values.(人们选择这些食物并非偶然，它们是共同价值观的真实纽带。)”可知，在节日期间要吃特定的食物是因为它们具有共同价值观。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“When people move to new cities or countries, they often bring their food customs with them. This is why big cities today have so many different kinds of restaurants and food markets.(当人们搬到新的城市或国家时，他们常常会将自己的饮食习俗一并带来。这就是为什么如今的大城市拥有如此多种类的餐馆和食品市场。)”可知，人们带来了他们的饮食习俗，从而导致了大城市中食物选择的多样性。故选A。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“Food is far more than just fuel for our bodies. Around the world, what we eat and how we eat it are deeply tied to our cultures, histories, and identities. The dishes prepared in our homes often carry stories and meanings that have been passed down for generations. This means that sharing a meal can be like sharing a part of our family story.(食物远不止是为我们身体提供能量的燃料。在世界各地，我们吃什么以及如何吃，都与我们的文化、历史和身份紧密相连。家中烹制的菜肴往往承载着代代相传的故事与意义。这意味着，共享一顿饭就如同分享我们家庭故事的一部分。)”和最后一段“But the main idea stays the same: food is a living part of our cultural history. It feeds not only our bodies but also our connections with others and with the past. In this way, food acts like a common language that everyone can understand.(但核心思想始终不变：食物是我们文化历史中鲜活的一部分。它不仅滋养我们的身体，还维系着我们与他人以及与过去的联系。从这个意义上说，食物就像一种人人都能理解的通用语言。)”可知，本文主要讲的是食物作为文化遗产的重要性及其影响，因此最好的标题是C选项“Food as Cultural Heritage(作为文化遗产的食物)”。故选C。 D For decades, scientists believed that the human brain stopped changing after childhood. Once we reached adulthood, it was thought that the brain’s structure and function were fixed. But recent research on neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has proven this wrong. Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to grow and change throughout life in response to experiences, learning, and challenges. This discovery has revolutionized our understanding of the brain. For example, studies have shown that people who learn a new language as adults develop new neural connections in the brain. Similarly, musicians who practice an instrument regularly have larger areas of the brain dedicated to motor skills and hearing. Even after injuries, the brain can rewire itself to compensate (补偿) for damaged areas. A person who loses the use of one hand may eventually regain some function as the brain reroutes signals to other regions. So, how can we use neuroplasticity to improve our lives? One key factor is continuous learning. Engaging in new activities — whether it’s painting, coding, or gardening — stimulates the brain to form new connections. Another important element is repetition. Practicing a skill regularly strengthens the neural pathways associated with it, making the skill easier to perform over time. Additionally, staying physically active and getting enough sleep support brain health, which is essential for neuroplasticity. However, neuroplasticity isn’t always positive. Negative experiences can also shape the brain. Chronic stress (慢性压力), for example, can weaken the brain’s ability to form new connections and affect memory and learning. This is why managing stress is important for keeping brain healthy. Understanding neuroplasticity offers hope for many people. It means that it’s never too late to learn a new skill, overcome bad habits, or recover from certain brain injuries. By embracing new challenges and taking care of our brains, we can unlock their full potential. 12. What was the traditional belief about the adult brain? A. It could easily recover from injuries. B. It had a fixed structure and function. C. It could change and grow continuously. D. It was more flexible than a child’s brain. 13. How does learning a new language affect the brain? A. It weakens neural connections. B. It forms new neural connections. C. It damages certain brain regions. D. It stops the brain from changing. 14. What is a negative effect of chronic stress on the brain? A. It increases physical activity. B. It improves the brain’s adaptability. C. It strengthens memory and learning. D. It weakens the ability to form new connections. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards neuroplasticity? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Neutral (中立的). D. Critical. 【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是神经可塑性（neuroplasticity）的概念及其对人类大脑和生活的深远影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“For decades, scientists believed that the human brain stopped changing after childhood. Once we reached adulthood, it was thought that the brain’s structure and function were fixed.(几十年来，科学家一直认为人类大脑在童年时期后就停止了变化。一旦进入成年，人们普遍认为大脑的结构和功能便已固定。)”可知，传统观点认为大脑的结构和功能是固定的。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“For example, studies have shown that people who learn a new language as adults develop new neural connections in the brain.(例如，研究表明，成年后学习新语言的人会在大脑中形成新的神经连接。)”可知，学习新语言会让大脑形成新的神经连接。故选B。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Chronic stress (慢性压力), for example, can weaken the brain’s ability to form new connections and affect memory and learning.(例如，慢性压力会削弱大脑形成新连接的能力，并影响记忆力和学习能力。)”可知，慢性压力对大脑的负面影响是削弱形成新连接的能力，故选D。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Understanding neuroplasticity offers hope for many people. It means that it’s never too late to learn a new skill, overcome bad habits, or recover from certain brain injuries. By embracing new challenges and taking care of our brains, we can unlock their full potential.(了解神经可塑性为许多人带来了希望。这意味着学习新技能、克服不良习惯或从某些脑损伤中恢复，都永远不会太晚。通过迎接新的挑战并照顾好我们的大脑，我们能够充分发挥其潜力。)”可知，作者对神经可塑性的态度是积极的。故选A。 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 Improving Your English Listening Skills Listening is one of the most important skills in learning English. It helps you understand conversations, follow lectures, and enjoy movies or songs in English. However, many learners find listening challenging, especially when speakers talk fast or use unfamiliar words. ____16____ Here are four practical ways to improve your listening ability. Start with easier materials If you always choose materials that are too difficult, you may quickly feel discouraged. ____17____ For example, try listening to short podcasts (播客) made for English learners, or watch children’s cartoons in English. As you improve, you can move on to more difficult content. ____18____ Active listening means focusing completely on what you hear and trying to understand the main ideas and details. Just letting English play in the background is not enough. You can take notes, repeat what you hear, or even summarize the content after listening. This helps your brain process the language more deeply. Use subtitles (字幕) wisely When watching English videos, turning on English subtitles can help you connect sounds with words. ____19____ But try not to rely on subtitles in your native language — this will slow down your progress in thinking in English. Practice regularly Like any skill, listening improves with regular practice. Even 15 minutes a day can make a big difference over time. ____20____ The more you listen, the more familiar English sounds will become to you. A. Listen actively, not passively. B. Therefore, make listening a daily habit. C. So how can you become a better listener in English? D. Don’t worry if you can’t understand every word at first. E. Listening while reading can also improve your vocabulary. F. This is where you can check spelling and catch words you might miss. G. Instead, begin with content that is a little easier than your current level. 【答案】16. C 17. G 18. A 19. F 20. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是如何提高英语听力的技巧。 【16题详解】 前文“However, many learners find listening challenging, especially when speakers talk fast or use unfamiliar words.(然而，许多学习者发现听力练习颇具挑战性，尤其是当说话者语速较快或使用不熟悉的词汇时。)”提到听力有难度，后文“Here are four practical ways to improve your listening ability.(以下是有助于提高听力能力的四种实用方法。)”说有方法提高听力能力，C选项“So how can you become a better listener in English?(那么，如何才能成为更好的英语倾听者呢？)”用问句承上启下，自然过渡到具体方法。故选C。 【17题详解】 前文“If you always choose materials that are too difficult, you may quickly feel discouraged.(如果你总是选择难度过高的材料，你可能会很快感到沮丧。)”说“选太难会气馁”，后文“For example, try listening to short podcasts (播客) made for English learners, or watch children’s cartoons in English.(例如，可以尝试听为英语学习者制作的简短播客，或者观看用英语录制的儿童动画片。)”举例“听播客、看卡通”，此处需转折，建议从简单开始，G选项“Instead, begin with content that is a little easier than your current level.(相反，从比你当前水平稍低的内容开始吧。)”与前文构成转折，说明从比你当前水平稍低的内容开始。故选G。 【18题详解】 此处为小标题，根据下文“Active listening means focusing completely on what you hear and trying to understand the main ideas and details.(积极地听意味着要全神贯注于所听到的内容，并努力理解其主要思想和细节。)”可知，下文整段解释“Active listening”的定义和做法，A选项“Listen actively, not passively.(要积极地听，而非被动地听。)”完美概括该段主题。故选A。 【19题详解】 前文“When watching English videos, turning on English subtitles can help you connect sounds with words.(在观看英语视频时，打开英语字幕可以帮助你将声音与单词联系起来。)”说到“英文字幕帮助连接声音和单词”，F选项“This is where you can check spelling and catch words you might miss.(这就是你可以检查拼写和捕捉可能遗漏的单词的地方。)”用“This is where”具体说明字幕的作用（检查拼写、抓住漏听的词），后文转折提醒不要依赖母语字幕。故选F。 【20题详解】 前文“Even 15 minutes a day can make a big difference over time.(即使每天只练习15分钟，随着时间的推移也会产生巨大的差异。)”说“每天15分钟也有大作用”，B选项“Therefore, make listening a daily habit.(因此，要将听变成一种日常习惯。)”用“Therefore”总结建议，强调养成日常习惯，与小标题“Practice regularly(定期练习)”呼应。故选B。 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Fencing (击剑) is a challenging sport.

Picking up the newspaper on the desk, she noticed a big advertisement: the local bakery was holding a contest — “Tell us why your mom is great and win a free cake and afternoon tea for two.” “That’s a great chance!” Lily ran back to her dorm, took out a notebook and pen, and began writing. “My mom makes my favorite lunch every day, reads me bedtime stories, and gives the warmest hugs…, she even keeps all my little handwritten notes in her drawer.” She wrote carefully, folded the letter neatly, and mailed it. Days passed, and soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Lily checked the mailbox again and again, but there was no news about the contest. Disappointed, she thought, “No present, no free cake and afternoon tea, no money — What am I going to do now?” She closed her eyes tightly, trying to think of something. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Suddenly, an idea came to her. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The next morning, Lily handed the letter to her mom. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Suddenly, an idea came to her. She remembered that she had some old books and toys that she no longer used. Maybe she could sell them to earn a little money. Without hesitation, Lily gathered all those items and went to the nearby flea market. She set up a small stall and waited patiently. To her delight, some people showed interest in her things and she managed to sell quite a few items. With the money she earned, she bought a beautiful card and a small bouquet of flowers. The next morning, Lily handed the letter to her mom. As her mom opened it, Lily saw tears welling up in her eyes. The letter was filled with all the love and gratitude Lily had for her mom. After reading the letter, her mom gave Lily a big hug and said, “This is the best gift I’ve ever received.” Then Lily presented the card and the flowers to her mom. Her mom was even more touched and kissed Lily on the forehead. Lily felt so happy and knew that her mom truly appreciated her efforts and the love behind the gifts. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了母亲节临近，Lily因没钱给妈妈买礼物而焦虑。看到当地面包店举办“说出妈妈为何伟大，赢免费蛋糕和双人下午茶”的比赛广告后，她认真写信参赛并寄出。然而，母亲节前一天，她仍未收到比赛消息，失望之余，她闭眼思考接下来该怎么办 。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“突然，她想到了一个主意。”可知，第一段可描写Lily的主意和具体的做法。 ②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上，Lily把信交给了她的妈妈。”可知，第二段可描写妈妈收到信和礼物时的反应。 2.续写线索：决定售卖旧物——前往市场——成功售卖——购买礼物——妈妈读信——赠送礼物——妈妈亲吻——Lily开心。 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①购买：buy/purchase ②打开：open/unfold ③交给：present/hand 情绪类 ①高兴：delight/joy ②感激：gratitude/thankfulness 【点睛】[高分句型1] She remembered that she had some old books and toys that she no longer used.

This 3-day nature getaway will take you from ancient volcanic hills to coastlines and rainforests. Discover why Auckland is not only an urban hub but also a paradise for nature lovers. Day 1: Volcanoes & City Views Start your adventure at Maungawhau/Mount Eden, one of Auckland’s largest volcanic cones. Enjoy a gentle walk to the summit for views of the city and its harbors. Afterwards, visit Auckland Domain, the city’s oldest park, home to tranquil fern gardens and hidden walkways beneath ancient trees. Day 2: Island Escape & Coastal Walks Catch a ferry to Rangitoto Island, a volcanic island formed just 600 years ago. Hike to the top for unbeatable views, then explore lava caves and unique plant life. Return to the mainland and unwind at Mission Bay, where you can walk along the beach and watch the sunset over the sea. Day 3: Rainforests & Waterfalls Head west to the Waitākere Ranges, where rainforest meets black sand beaches. Take an easy walk along the Kitekite Track to reach a beautiful three-tiered waterfall. Afterwards, visit Piha Beach to feel the wild Tasman Sea breeze and admire the famous Lion Rock. Travel Tips: • Begin your hikes early to enjoy cooler temperatures and fewer visitors. • Wear comfortable walking shoes suitable for volcanic paths and forest trails. • Bring a reusable water bottle, sunscreen, and a windproof jacket—weather can change quickly near the coast. • Use ferries, buses, or rideshare services to reach different locations easily. 1.

B That summer was supposed to be about endless video games and sleeping in. At least, that was my plan when my parents announced we were spending a month in Willow Creek, a small town at the foot of the mountains. My teenage heart sank. My first morning there confirmed my fear. I missed my friends and the Wi-Fi. To avoid my family’s plan for hike, I wandered into the town’s old library. Mrs. Davies, the librarian, smiled at me. “Looking for an adventure?” she asked. “Not really,” I mumbled. She handed me a thick, dusty book titled Field Guide to Mountain Birds. “Sometimes,” she said, “adventure needs a little help finding you.” I took it just to be polite. The next day, bored, I flipped through the book. Colourful illustrations of birds I had never seen caught my eyes. On a whim (心血来潮), I decided to find it with a guidebook. The search was not easy. After hours of fruitless searching, I was ready to give up. All of a sudden, a flash of brilliant blue darted from a nearby tree and landed on a fence. It was the Bluebird. In that perfect moment, my boredom evaporated like morning mist. Since then, every morning, I’d grab my guidebook and head out. I saw woodpeckers, hummingbirds, and even a shy hawk. I started a notebook to record my sightings. I stopped checking my phone. The mountain became my new, and fascinating world. When the month ended, I was surprised to feel sad when leaving Willow Creek. I didn’t just bring home a suitcase; I brought home a new pair of eyes. The most wonderful discoveries aren’t found on a screen; they’re waiting quietly in the world, if only you decide to look up. 4. What was the author’s first feeling about spending the summer in Willow Creek? A. Excited and curious. B. Nervous but hopeful. C. Completely unconcerned. D. Disappointed and unwilling. 5. Why did the author take the book from Mrs. Davies? A. He wanted to impress the librarian. B. He was interested in bird watching. C. He did it out of politeness, not real interest. D. He was forced by his parents to read something. 6. What does the underlined word “evaporated” in paragraph 3 most likely mean? A. Filled the air. B. Became stronger. C. Appeared slowly. D. Disappeared quickly. 7. What does the story mainly tell us? A. Technology stops us from seeing real life. B. An unexpected interest can bring joy and growth. C. A librarian greatly changed a teenager’s summer plan. D. Mountain birds are the most beautiful creatures in the world. C Food is far more than just fuel for our bodies. Around the world, what we eat and how we eat it are deeply tied to our cultures, histories, and identities. The dishes prepared in our homes often carry stories and meanings that have been passed down for generations. This means that sharing a meal can be like sharing a part of our family story. In many cultures, specific foods are central to festivals and family gatherings. For example, mooncakes are shared during China’s Mid-Autumn Festival to stand for reunion. In the United States, a roast turkey is the main dish for Thanksgiving dinner, representing thanks and the autumn harvest. People do not choose these foods by chance. They are a real link to shared values. Also, food is a strong sign of who we are. The spices in a curry, the things in a soup, or how bread is baked can tell you about a family’s background or a place’s weather. When people move to new cities or countries, they often bring their food customs with them. This is why big cities today have so many different kinds of restaurants and food markets. Trying a dish from another culture can be a good first step to understanding its people. In today’s world, food cultures meet and change. New mixed styles of cooking appear. But the main idea stays the same: food is a living part of our cultural history. It feeds not only our bodies but also our connections with others and with the past. In this way, food acts like a common language that everyone can understand. 8. According to the passage, what is food described as beyond nutrition (营养)? A. A modern trend. B. A tool for exercise. C. A carrier (载体) of culture. D. A way to save money. 9. Why are specific foods eaten during festivals? A. They improve health. B. They have shared values. C. They are cheapest to buy. D. They are quick to prepare. 10. What causes diverse food choices in big cities? A. People bring their food customs. B. Local markets sell new spices. C. Restaurants offer more variety. D. People try food from other cultures. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. The History of Food B. The Science of Nutrition C. Food as Cultural Heritage D. How to Cook Festive Meals D For decades, scientists believed that the human brain stopped changing after childhood. Once we reached adulthood, it was thought that the brain’s structure and function were fixed. But recent research on neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has proven this wrong. Neuroplasticity refers to the brain’s ability to grow and change throughout life in response to experiences, learning, and challenges. This discovery has revolutionized our understanding of the brain. For example, studies have shown that people who learn a new language as adults develop new neural connections in the brain. Similarly, musicians who practice an instrument regularly have larger areas of the brain dedicated to motor skills and hearing. Even after injuries, the brain can rewire itself to compensate (补偿) for damaged areas. A person who loses the use of one hand may eventually regain some function as the brain reroutes signals to other regions. So, how can we use neuroplasticity to improve our lives? One key factor is continuous learning. Engaging in new activities — whether it’s painting, coding, or gardening — stimulates the brain to form new connections. Another important element is repetition. Practicing a skill regularly strengthens the neural pathways associated with it, making the skill easier to perform over time. Additionally, staying physically active and getting enough sleep support brain health, which is essential for neuroplasticity. However, neuroplasticity isn’t always positive. Negative experiences can also shape the brain. Chronic stress (慢性压力), for example, can weaken the brain’s ability to form new connections and affect memory and learning. This is why managing stress is important for keeping brain healthy. Understanding neuroplasticity offers hope for many people. It means that it’s never too late to learn a new skill, overcome bad habits, or recover from certain brain injuries. By embracing new challenges and taking care of our brains, we can unlock their full potential. 12. What was the traditional belief about the adult brain? A. It could easily recover from injuries. B. It had a fixed structure and function. C. It could change and grow continuously. D. It was more flexible than a child’s brain. 13. How does learning a new language affect the brain? A. It weakens neural connections. B. It forms new neural connections. C. It damages certain brain regions. D. It stops the brain from changing. 14. What is a negative effect of chronic stress on the brain? A. It increases physical activity. B. It improves the brain’s adaptability. C. It strengthens memory and learning. D. It weakens the ability to form new connections. 15. What is the author’s attitude towards neuroplasticity? A. Positive. B. Doubtful. C. Neutral (中立的). D. Critical. 第二节 （共5小题，每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 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。 Improving Your English Listening Skills Listening is one of the most important skills in learning English. It helps you understand conversations, follow lectures, and enjoy movies or songs in English. However, many learners find listening challenging, especially when speakers talk fast or use unfamiliar words. ____16____ Here are four practical ways to improve your listening ability. Start with easier materials If you always choose materials that are too difficult, you may quickly feel discouraged. ____17____ For example, try listening to short podcasts (播客) made for English learners, or watch children’s cartoons in English. As you improve, you can move on to more difficult content. ____18____ Active listening means focusing completely on what you hear and trying to understand the main ideas and details. Just letting English play in the background is not enough. You can take notes, repeat what you hear, or even summarize the content after listening. This helps your brain process the language more deeply. Use subtitles (字幕) wisely When watching English videos, turning on English subtitles can help you connect sounds with words. ____19____ But try not to rely on subtitles in your native language — this will slow down your progress in thinking in English. Practice regularly Like any skill, listening improves with regular practice. Even 15 minutes a day can make a big difference over time. ____20____ The more you listen, the more familiar English sounds will become to you. A. Listen actively, not passively. B. Therefore, make listening a daily habit. C. So how can you become a better listener in English? D. Don’t worry if you can’t understand every word at first. E.

Picking up the newspaper on the desk, she noticed a big advertisement: the local bakery was holding a contest — “Tell us why your mom is great and win a free cake and afternoon tea for two.” “That’s a great chance!” Lily ran back to her dorm, took out a notebook and pen, and began writing. “My mom makes my favorite lunch every day, reads me bedtime stories, and gives the warmest hugs…, she even keeps all my little handwritten notes in her drawer.” She wrote carefully, folded the letter neatly, and mailed it.
