Portable (便携式) Bluetooth speakers are a must-have for anyone who loves music on the move. But with so many options, how do you pick the right one? And once you have it, how do you get started? First, let’s look at the key things to check when choosing a basic model: Key Feature What to Look For Why It Matters Battery Life At least 6 hours of playtime Avoids frequent charging when out Size & Weight Under 500g, palm-sized Easy to carry in a bag or hand Water Resistance Basic water protection Safe if it rains lightly or gets a little wet Once you’ve picked your speaker, setting it up is simple. Here’s how to start using it in minutes: ●Charge the speaker first. Use the USB cable (数据线) that comes with it — most take 2 to 3 hours to fully charge. A red light will turn to a green light when it’s ready. ●Turn on the speaker. Press and hold the power button for 2 seconds — you’ll hear a beep, and a blue light will flash, which means it’s ready to connect. ●Pair it with your phone. On your phone, go to Bluetooth settings, find the speaker’s name, and tap to connect. The blue light will stop flashing once connected. ●Play music. Open your favorite music app, pick a song, and adjust the volume — you can use the buttons on the speaker or your phone. Basic portable Bluetooth speakers don’t have to be complicated. They’re designed to make listening to music easy and fun — so you can focus on enjoying your tunes (曲子), not figuring out how the device works. 1. What feature can be excluded for a basic portable Bluetooth speaker? A. Battery life. B. Water resistance. C. Appearance. D. Weight. 2. What is the sign of a successful speaker connection? A. It turns off the blue light. B. It makes a long deep sound. C. It turns on the green light. D. It makes a soft music sound. 3. Why does the author write the text? A. To advertise. B. To entertain. C. To persuade. D. To suggest. B A few years ago, I was leaving the dog shelter where I worked only to find a baby goat at the end of the driveway. The shelter’s owners are known as animal rescuers, and I figured someone had abandoned him over the fence. The kid was visibly nervous but stood perfectly still as I approached. I’m an animal lover and I’ve brought home dogs, cats, horses, and chickens, but never a goat. The tiny kid was too adorable to resist. I named him Quincy, and with the help of some experienced friends, bottle-fed him in my bathroom. Quincy proved to be quite sharp-witted. When he was about a week old, I knocked on the bathroom floor and said “lie down”. I was astonished when he dropped down. I was even more amazed when he did it three times in a row. A quick study! Quincy learned to lie down, bow, and turn in a circle in no time. He is house-trained, jumps in the back of my SUV when I say “load up”, and spends the day wandering with my dogs, whom he considers his fellow goats. He knows the name of everything I feed him, and even joins us for trips to the dog park. I love to train animals and often take my dogs to shows where they can perform their tricks. Quincy did his first show when he was just six weeks old. He knew only a few tricks then, but he did them perfectly and never misbehaved or got nervous in front of the crowd. Now he has a whole inventory (清单): he’ll come when called, walk on a string, wave, smile for the camera (“Say cheese!”), and more. Quincy and my dogs perform regularly at schools, nursing homes, and charity events. Quincy can even “read” his tricks off cards, which always earns the most applause. It’s hard to believe that the baby goat nobody wanted turned out to be one of the smartest and most good-natured animals I’ve ever had. He’s by far the sharpest of my bunch—just don’t tell the dogs! 4. Why did the author decide to adopt the goat? A. It touched his heart. B. He could only find a goat. C. A goat was always his favorite. D. Some experienced friends convinced him. 5. What does the underlined word in paragraph 3 probably mean? A Brave. B. Gentle. C. Innocent. D. Intelligent. 6. How does the author present the baby goat’s ability? A. By citing figures. B. By listing examples. C. By making a comparison. D. By drawing a diagram. 7. Which words can best describe the author? A. Generous and modest. B. Cautious and smart. C. Humorous and warm-hearted. D. Optimistic and creative. C Emotions, thoughts and ideas. We use language to transform abstract ideas into concrete ( 具体的) communication tools. How could we go ahead as a culture unless we shared a common understanding for popular words in the English language, such as book, friend or laugh, or uncommon words like biblioklept or hirquiticke? But that doesn’t mean words don’t fall out of fashion. In 2021, nine words were decided as “historical” and removed from dictionaries. Aerodrome, for example, was determined to be deleted from the Merriam-Webster dictionary because nowadays we usually call airplane landing fields “airports.” So who, exactly, makes the decision to remove a word from a dictionary? The removal of dictionary words is left to lexicographers (词典编撰者), who not only decide which words to remove but also add new words and update changing definitions. Lexicographers also are responsible for adding new words. In 2022, for example, “demisexual” and “vaxxed” were added to the Oxford English Dictionary. Truth is, it’s actually quite difficult for a word to lose its place in a dictionary. Lexicographers don’t take word-removal lightly. When a word comes into question, dictionary editors will first do series of online surveys among dictionary users. Editors then will examine its meaning, usage and popularity across many large language databases that cover a variety of frequently-used examples. Based on the survey results and collected information, lexicographers will hold rounds of formal discussions and vote for the final decision. Often, words that are removed from printed dictionaries are allowed to remain part of online dictionaries. Despite the careful word addition and removal process, dictionaries aren’t immune to mistakes. For a time, “redripening” appeared in most dictionaries as one word, when it actually should have been “red-ripening.” 8. Why was “aerodrome” removed from the Merriam-Webster dictionary? A. Its definition was wrong. B. It was invented long time ago. C. It was decided by the editors. D. It wasn’t applicable to modern life. 9. Which of the following best describes the word-removal process? A. Strict. B. Creative. C. Painful. D. Natural. 10. Why is “redrippening” mentioned in the last paragraph? A. To introduce a newly-removed word. B. To stress the huge popularity of this word. C. To show dictionaries sometimes make mistakes. D. To reveal the disadvantage of the removal process. 11. What’s the suitable title for the text? A. Who Are Lexicographers? B. Why Does a Dictionary Become Outdated? C. What Caused Words to Change? D. How Are Words Removed from a Dictionary? D Spending time in nature is important for your mental health. But studies show that even just listening to birds singing can relieve conditions of anxiety and depression (抑郁). But why is birdsong special? “As social creatures, we are born to connect to things,” says Cindy Frantz, social and environmental psychologist and chair of psychology at Oberlin College and Conservatory. “The parts of our brain that we use to form relationships with people help us build bonds with nature too — birds included. Here’s why paying attention to birdsong can make you feel strong and healthy again.” A growing body of research suggests that birdsong is a gateway (通道) to nature’s many benefits, whether you live in a rural town or a bustling city. A 2022 study published in the journal Scientific Reports highlighted the contrast between listening to the sounds of nature versus urban environments. Among 295 participants, those who listened to six minutes of birdsong through headphones reported feeling less anxious, and having a significantly better sense of mental health. And the more vibrant the birdsong, the better: Reduced depression was specifically linked to hearing a variety of species singing together compared to those who only listened to the songs of two species. Participants who listened to six minutes of traffic noise, unsurprisingly, felt more depressed. Scientists don’t fully understand why hearing more bird species can lead to a greater health boost, but they’re hopeful that future studies will continue to explore the link. While studies have found that recordings of birdsong benefit your mental health, Francis, a professor at Cal Poly’s biological sciences department, stresses nothing compares to experiencing the real thing. And the next time you hear birds singing, stop and appreciate the magic. 12. Why is birdsong special according to Cindy Frantz? A. People are born to like birdsong. B. Birdsong improves our physical health. C. Our brain helps to build bonds with birds. D Birdsong is the most wonderful sound in the world. 13. What do we know about the 2022 study? A. All participants unsurprisingly felt more depressed. B Participants who listened to birdsong felt reduced anxiety. C. Participants who listened to traffic noise felt less depressed. D. The more vibrant the birdsong, the worse sense of mental health. 14. What does Francis advise people to do? A. Listen to traffic noise. B. Sing songs with birds. C. Spend time on physical health. D. Appreciate birdsong in nature. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. 295 participants took part in a research. B. There are many ways to relieve negative emotion. C. Listening to birdsong is beneficial to mental health. D. Mental health is more important than physical health. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In 1985, 16-year old Douglas Casa collapsed when running the championship 10,000 meter Face at the Empire State Games.

Portable (便携式) Bluetooth speakers are a must-have for anyone who loves music on the move. But with so many options, how do you pick the right one? And once you have it, how do you get started? First, let’s look at the key things to check when choosing a basic model: Key Feature What to Look For Why It Matters Battery Life At least 6 hours of playtime Avoids frequent charging when out Size & Weight Under 500g, palm-sized Easy to carry in a bag or hand Water Resistance Basic water protection Safe if it rains lightly or gets a little wet Once you’ve picked your speaker, setting it up is simple.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了基础款的便携蓝牙音箱，通过表格列出选购时需关注的核心特征（续航、尺寸重量、防水性）及对应原因，并分步介绍音箱的设置与使用流程。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中Key Feature部分列出的内容，包括“Battery Life (电池续航)”、“Size & Weight (尺寸和重量)”以及“Water Resistance (防水性能)”可知，文中并未提及“Appearance (外观)”，因此，对于一款基础便携式蓝牙音箱来说，外观是可以被排除在外的特征。故选C。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“The blue light will stop flashing once connected. (一旦连接成功，蓝灯将停止闪烁。)”可知，连接成功的标志是蓝灯停止闪烁，即蓝灯熄灭。故选A。 【3题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Portable (便携式) Bluetooth speakers are a must-have for anyone who loves music on the move. But with so many options, how do you pick the right one? And once you have it, how do you get started?(对于任何喜欢在移动中聆听音乐的人来说，便携式蓝牙音箱都是必备品。但市面上的选择如此之多，该如何挑选到合适的那一款呢？而且一旦入手，又该如何开始使用呢？)”可以推断出，作者写这篇文章的目的是为了给出建议，指导读者如何选择和使用基础便携式蓝牙音箱。故选D。 B A few years ago, I was leaving the dog shelter where I worked only to find a baby goat at the end of the driveway. The shelter’s owners are known as animal rescuers, and I figured someone had abandoned him over the fence. The kid was visibly nervous but stood perfectly still as I approached. I’m an animal lover and I’ve brought home dogs, cats, horses, and chickens, but never a goat. The tiny kid was too adorable to resist.

Generous and modest. B. Cautious and smart. C. Humorous and warm-hearted. D. Optimistic and creative. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. B 7. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者救治一只小羊并训练它进行表演的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“I’m an animal lover(我是一个动物爱好者)”以及“The tiny kid was too adorable to resist.(这个小家伙太可爱了以至于无法抗拒)” 可知，作者是一个动物爱好者，而小羊太可爱了，吸引了作者，即作者内心被可爱的小羊打动，因此决定收养这只小羊。故选A项。 【5题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段划线词后“When he was about a week old, I knocked on the bathroom floor and said ‘lie down’. I was astonished when he dropped down. I was even more amazed when he did it three times in a row.(当他大约一周大的时候，我敲了敲浴室的地板，说“躺下”。他卧倒时我很惊讶。当他连续做了三次时，我更加惊讶。)”可知，大约一周大的小羊听懂了作者的指令，并作出指令动作，这说明这只小羊很聪明。由此可推知，“sharp-witted”是“聪明的”含义。故选D项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。从文章第四段内容“A quick study! Quincy learned to lie down, bow, and turn in a circle in no time. He is house-trained, jumps in the back of my SUV when I say ‘load up’,(快速学习！Quincy很快学会了躺下、鞠躬和转圈。“他”受过家庭训练，当我说“上车”时，“他”会跳到我SUV的后面)”以及第六段“Now he has a whole inventory (清单): he’ll come when called, walk on a string, wave, smile for the camera (“Say cheese!”), and more. (现在他有了一个完整的清单：他会在被叫时过来，在绳子上走路，挥手，对着镜头微笑（“说奶酪！”）等等)”可知，作者在文章中举例了小羊可以完成的事情，作者是通过举例子的方式来展现小羊的能力。故选B项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容“He’s by far the sharpest of my bunch—just don’t tell the dogs!(到目前为止，“他”是我这群动物里最聪明的——只是别告诉狗狗们!)”可知，作者用“只是被告诉狗狗们”表达了自己的幽默；根据第二段内容“I’m an animal lover and I’ve brought home dogs, cats, horses, and chickens, but never a goat.(我是一个动物爱好者，我带过狗、猫、马和鸡回家，但从来没有山羊。)”可知，这一描述说明了作者的善良。由此可推知，作者是一个幽默善良的人。故选C项。 C Emotions, thoughts and ideas.

How could we go ahead as a culture unless we shared a common understanding for popular words in the English language, such as book, friend or laugh, or uncommon words like biblioklept or hirquiticke?

What’s the suitable title for the text? A. Who Are Lexicographers? B. Why Does a Dictionary Become Outdated? C What Caused Words to Change? D. How Are Words Removed from a Dictionary? 【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章主要讲述单词是如何从字典中被删除的。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But that doesn’t mean words don’t fall out of fashion. In 2021, nine words were decided as ‘historical’ and removed from dictionaries. Aerodrome, for example, was determined to be deleted from the Merriam-Webster dictionary because nowadays we usually call airplane landing fields ‘airports.’(但这并不意味着词汇不会过时。2021年，有9个单词被认定为‘历史词汇’，并被从词典中删除。例如，Aerodrome这个词被决定从韦氏词典中删除，因为现在我们通常把飞机降落场称为‘airports’)”可知，Aerodrome这个词被删除是因为它过时了，被认定是“历史词汇”，不适用于现代生活。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段内容，尤其是前两句“Truth is, it’s actually quite difficult for a word to lose its place in a dictionary. Lexicographers don’t take word-removal lightly.(事实上，一个单词很难在字典中失去它的位置。词典编纂者不会轻易删除单词)”和最后一段中“Despite the careful word addition and removal proces(尽管词典在添加和删除单词的过程中小心翼翼)”可知，从字典中删除单词的过程非常严格。故选A。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段中“Despite the careful word addition and removal process, dictionaries aren’t immune to mistakes.(尽管词典在添加和删除单词的过程中小心翼翼，但也难免会出现错误)”提到字典中难免会出现错误，接着下句“For a time, ‘redripening’ appeared in most dictionaries as one word, when it actually should have been ‘red-ripening.’(有一段时间，‘redripening’作为一个单词出现在大多数词典中，而实际上它应该是‘red-ripening’)”以“redrippening”为例，表明字典有时也会犯错。故选C。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第三段“So who, exactly, makes the decision to remove a word from a dictionary?(那么，究竟是谁决定从字典中删除一个单词呢)”可知，文章主要讲述字典删除单词的过程，D项“单词是如何从字典中被删除的？”为最佳标题。故选D。 D Spending time in nature is important for your mental health. But studies show that even just listening to birds singing can relieve conditions of anxiety and depression (抑郁). But why is birdsong special? “As social creatures, we are born to connect to things,” says Cindy Frantz, social and environmental psychologist and chair of psychology at Oberlin College and Conservatory. “The parts of our brain that we use to form relationships with people help us build bonds with nature too — birds included. Here’s why paying attention to birdsong can make you feel strong and healthy again.” A growing body of research suggests that birdsong is a gateway (通道) to nature’s many benefits, whether you live in a rural town or a bustling city. A 2022 study published in the journal Scientific Reports highlighted the contrast between listening to the sounds of nature versus urban environments. Among 295 participants, those who listened to six minutes of birdsong through headphones reported feeling less anxious, and having a significantly better sense of mental health. And the more vibrant the birdsong, the better: Reduced depression was specifically linked to hearing a variety of species singing together compared to those who only listened to the songs of two species. Participants who listened to six minutes of traffic noise, unsurprisingly, felt more depressed. Scientists don’t fully understand why hearing more bird species can lead to a greater health boost, but they’re hopeful that future studies will continue to explore the link. While studies have found that recordings of birdsong benefit your mental health, Francis, a professor at Cal Poly’s biological sciences department, stresses nothing compares to experiencing the real thing. And the next time you hear birds singing, stop and appreciate the magic. 12. Why is birdsong special according to Cindy Frantz? A. People are born to like birdsong. B. Birdsong improves our physical health. C. Our brain helps to build bonds with birds. D. Birdsong is the most wonderful sound in the world. 13. What do we know about the 2022 study? A. All participants unsurprisingly felt more depressed. B. Participants who listened to birdsong felt reduced anxiety. C. Participants who listened to traffic noise felt less depressed. D. The more vibrant the birdsong, the worse sense of mental health. 14. What does Francis advise people to do? A. Listen to traffic noise. B. Sing songs with birds. C. Spend time on physical health. D. Appreciate birdsong in nature. 15. What does the text mainly talk about? A. 295 participants took part in a research. B. There are many ways to relieve negative emotion. C. Listening to birdsong is beneficial to mental health. D. Mental health is more important than physical health. 【答案】12. C 13. B 14. D 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了鸟鸣对心理健康有益，通过研究表明听鸟鸣能减轻焦虑和抑郁，还提到亲身体验真实鸟鸣的重要性。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But why is birdsong special? ‘As social creatures, we are born to connect to things,’ says Cindy Frantz, social and environmental psychologist and chair of psychology at Oberlin College and Conservatory. ‘The parts of our brain that we use to form relationships with people help us build bonds with nature too — birds included. Here’s why paying attention to birdsong can make you feel strong and healthy again.’(但是为什么鸟鸣很特别呢？“作为社会生物，我们生来就会与事物产生联系，”社会和环境心理学家、奥柏林学院和音乐学院心理学主席Cindy Frantz说。“我们大脑中用来与人建立关系的部分也帮助我们与自然建立联系，包括鸟类。这就是为什么关注鸟鸣可以让你再次感到强壮和健康。”)”可知，根据Cindy Frantz的说法，鸟鸣特别的原因是我们大脑中用来与人建立关系的部分也帮助我们与自然建立联系，包括鸟类，即我们的大脑帮助我们与鸟类建立联系。故选C项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Among 295 participants, those who listened to six minutes of birdsong through headphones reported feeling less anxious, and having a significantly better sense of mental health. (在295名参与者中，那些通过耳机听了六分钟鸟鸣的人报告说，他们感觉焦虑减轻了，心理健康状况明显改善)”可知，2022年的研究表明听鸟鸣的参与者焦虑感减轻了。故选B项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Francis, a professor at Cal Poly’s biological sciences department, stresses nothing compares to experiencing the real thing. And the next time you hear birds singing, stop and appreciate the magic. (加州州立理工大学生物科学系教授弗朗西斯强调，没有什么能比得上亲身体验真实的鸟鸣。下次你听到鸟儿歌唱时，停下来欣赏这神奇的声音)”可知，弗朗西斯建议人们欣赏大自然中的鸟鸣。故选D项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Spending time in nature is important for your mental health. But studies show that even just listening to birds singing can relieve conditions of anxiety and depression (抑郁). (花时间亲近自然对心理健康很重要。但研究表明，即使只是听鸟儿歌唱也能缓解焦虑和抑郁症状)”和后文内容可知，文章介绍了鸟鸣对心理健康有益，研究表明听鸟鸣能减轻焦虑和抑郁，所以本文主要讲述了听鸟鸣对心理健康有益。故选C项。 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文中的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 In 1985, 16-year old Douglas Casa collapsed when running the championship 10,000 meter Face at the Empire State Games.
