第二部分阅读(共两节,满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳答案。
A
Biodiversity, the foundation of ecosystems and human societies, is crucial to maintaining essential ecological processes. However, it is declining globally, with Asia — a region rich in biodiversity — facing significant threats from human activities and climate change. These challenges are damaging ecosystems across the region, from mangroves (红树林) in the Sundarbans to Japan’s northern islands.
Deforestation and Land Use Change
Deforestation and changes in land use are major threats to biodiversity. Increasing population pressures and agricultural expansion lead to the change of forests into farmland, urban areas, and industrial zones. Southeast Asia, particularly countries like Indonesia and Myanmar, experiences some of the world’s highest deforestation rates as forests are cleared for palm oil plantations or infrastructure (基础设施) projects. This loss and breaking up of habitats endanger species by affecting their ability to feed and reproduce.
Pollution and Overuse
Pollution and the overuse of resources also degrade ecosystems. Industrial activities, such as Bangladesh’s textile industry, release untreated wastewater into rivers, destroying aquatic habitats and harming downstream communities. Overfishing and illegal wildlife trade further endanger species, leading to ecosystem imbalances.
Climate Change and Extreme Weather
Climate change worsens these problems by increasing the frequency of cyclones, floods, and droughts. Seaside habitats like the Bay of Bengal’s mangrove forests face severe problems due to rising sea levels, which cause saltwater spread and threaten both biodiversity and livelihoods. The IPCC warns that extreme weather is likely to increase in South and Southeast Asia.
Invasive Species and Disease
Invasive alien species pose another serious risk. For instance, the apple snail, introduced to Southeast Asia from South America, now affects 1.4 million hectares of rice fields in the Philippines, reducing crop yields and threatening native species.
Addressing these interconnected challenges requires coordinated global efforts, sustainable practices, and policies to protect Asia’s rich biodiversity for future generations.
21. What harm has Bangladesh’s textile industry caused to biodiversity?
A. Expansion of rice fields. B. Overfishing in seaside waters.
C. River pollution from untreated wastewater.
D. Clearing mangroves for urban development.
22. Which region is significantly affected by extreme weather and sea-level rise?
A. The Sundarbans. B. The Bay of Bengal.
C. Japan's northern islands. D. Southeast Asian rainforests.
23. What can be inferred as key contributing factors to biodiversity loss in Asia?
A. Lack of environmental protection policies.
B. Growing population and human production activities.
C. Habitat loss and invasive alien species.
D. Frequent extreme weather and rising sea levels.
B
When I first sat down to write my will (遗嘱), I expected it to be a simple act of paperwork, a practical task that adults are supposed to complete. Instead, it pulled me into an unexpected spiral of reflection. What do I truly want to leave behind? What traces of my life will matter when I am no longer here?
The questions felt heavy but they carried a hidden gift. Writing about my possessions made me think not of objects, but of people—my children, my partner, my friends. Suddenly, I saw how every choice I make is connected to love. The books on my shelves, the photographs on the wall, even the recipes in my kitchen are not just things; they are extensions of care, memory, and joy.
In the middle of this process, I recognized that a will is less about death than about life. It is about pausing long enough to notice what I value most. The act of writing forced me to define the essence of what I hope my family remembers: not money or furniture, but kindness, curiosity, and the laughter we shared.
I felt lighter after finishing the document. Instead of fear, I carried gratitude. I saw my life not as incomplete but as perpetual, filled with small opportunities to live with intention. If facing death teaches anything, it is that the present moment is our most generous gift. Every day, I can choose to pass on patience, love, and courage.
What began as a legal form turned into a reminder: life is fragile, but it is also abundant. And if I am mindful, then even in the ordinary rhythm of my days, I am already leaving behind what matters most.
24. What realization did the author have while writing her will?
A. Writing a will was easier than she had expected.
B. She owned more valuable property than she thought.
C. Objects in her life were deeply tied to people and memories.
D. Her family members were not interested in material possessions.
25. What can be inferred about the author’s attitude toward death?
A. She avoided thinking about it. B. She feared it even more than before.
C. She decided never to discuss it again. D. She became calmer and more grateful.
26. What does the underlined word “perpetual” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Aging B. Dying C. Lasting D. Confusing
27. Which proverb best expresses the main idea of the passage?
A. Actions speak louder than words. B. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket.
C. You can’t take it with you when you go. D. Love and the present matter most.
C
In a contest for jobs requiring the most patience, art restoration(艺术品修复) might take first place. Traditionally, conservators restore paintings by recreating the artwork’s exact colors to fill in the damage, one spot at a time. Even with the help of X-ray imaging and coloring analyses, several parts of the expensive process, such as the cleaning and restoring, are done by hand. Meanwhile, direct restoring might devalue the painter’s original vision.
That’s where Alex Kachkine comes in. The MIT student has developed a way to apply digital restorations onto a damaged painting. In short, the approach involves using pre-existing AI tools to create a digital version of what the freshly painted artwork would have looked like. Based on this version, Kachkine’s new software creates a digital map of the retouches (修复点) with exact colors, necessary to fill the gaps present in the painting today.
The digital map is then printed onto two layers of thin, transparent (透明的) film — one with colored retouches and one with the same pattern in white. The film with two layers forms a mask. This mask is attached to the painting to position the retouches, which helps achieve a faithful restoration in just hours — instead of months of work.
Kachkine demonstrated the approach on a 15th-century oil painting in need of restoration, by a Dutch artist whose name is now unknown. The retouches were generated by matching the surrounding color, copying similar patterns visible elsewhere in the painting or the artist’s style in other paintings. Overall, the painting’s 5,612 damaged regions were filled with 57, 314 different colors in 3.5 hours — 66 hours faster than traditional methods would have likely taken.
The new process still poses concerns, such as whether the applied film disturbs the viewing experience or whether AI-generated corrections to the painting are accurate. Still, Kachkine says this technique could help address the large number of damaged artworks that live in storage rooms, enabling the restoration of countless damaged paintings considered not deserving of high conservation budgets.
28. What can we know about traditional art restoration?
A. It causes more damage. B. It consumes more labor.
C. It lacks technical assistance. D. It adds the value of an artwork.
29. What can Kachkine’s new software do?
A. Decorate the damaged paintings. B. Make a map of colored retouches.
C. Create a vivid copy of the painting. D. Promote the application of AI tools.
30. How were the retouches of 15th-century oil painting achieved?
A. By applying extra colors. B. By referring to other painters’ works.
C. By learning from traditional methods.
D. By studying the artist’s painting techniques.
31. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?
A. How AI Influences Our Future B. A New Brush for Art Restoration
C. When Restoration Meets Tight Budgets
D. A Rising Conservator of Ancient Paintings
D
A humorous remark at just the right time can go a long way. Benevolent (善意的) humour helps medical assistants (MAs) cope positively with their stressful working day, according to a new study by the Martin Luther University (MLU) and the Federal Institute for Vocational Education and Training. The researchers surveyed more than 600 MAs and found that those who preferred light, well-intended humour were more satisfied with their work and received more positive feedback. Dark humour, such as sarcasm (嘲讽), was more likely to have disadvantages.
Medical assistants mostly work in primary health care, especially medical practices. In Germany, becoming an MA requires three years of vocational training. Their daily routine is highly demanding: they handle administrative tasks, take blood samples, and apply wound dressings. “Medical assistants are in very close contact with patients most of the day. They have significant responsibility and experience high stress,” says Julia Raceke, a doctoral researcher at MLU. While humour has long been known to help healthcare workers manage stress, less is understood about the impacts of different humour styles.
The researchers conducted an online survey of over 600 MAs to better understand the relationship between job satisfaction and humour styles. Participants shared their humour preferences and provided information on their workplace well-being and perceived competence.
Results indicated that those who preferred positive, benevolent humour were generally more satisfied with their jobs. These MAs also reported receiving more positive feedback and feeling that they made a greater difference at work. Surprisingly, not all forms of dark humour connected negatively with well-being—satire and irony showed no negative effects. However, cynicism and sarcasm were mostly harmful. Still, the researchers noted that occasional sarcasm among colleagues might help release frustration.
According to the researchers, humour is one of several factors influencing workplace well-being. Using humour consciously and appropriately can make patient interactions more pleasant. The findings may also help develop new training programs to enhance MAs’ social and emotional skills through online tools.
32. What is the main finding of the study conducted by MLU?
A. Benevolent humour contributes to MAs’ job satisfaction.
B. Sarcasm is the most effective humour style in healthcare.
C. Humour has no significant effect on workplace well-being.
D. Medical assistants prefer dark humour to benevolent humour.
33. What is the purpose of the second paragraph?
A. To present the research findings of the study.
B. To argue for better working conditions for MAs.
C. To compare different humour styles used in healthcare.
D. To provide background information about medical assistants.
34. What can we infer about dark humour from the researchers’ analysis?
A. It is completely useless for MAs. B. Its effects vary by specific type.
C. It is widely accepted by patients. D. It is more effective than positive humour.
35. What is the research team’s attitude towards the use of humour?
A. They are indifferent as its effects are too small to measure.
B. They see it as a valuable tool that requires careful application.
C. They believe all humour styles should be encouraged equally.
D. They are cautious and think it should be avoided in medical settings.

题目:Keep Our Campus Clean: Start with the Water Fountain
第二节 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整短文。
Josh and his mom were on a road trip. There was a sudden shake as the van (面包车) hit a deep hole in the dirt road. “Oof!” Josh said. “Five minutes.” Josh’s mom smiled. “It’ll be worth the rough ride to swim in a cenote (天然井).” Josh nodded.
The Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico was the best vacation place ever. But right now, Josh felt left out. He couldn’t understand what the other tourists in the van, two families from Mexico City, were saying.
“El serpiente grande!” a boy Josh’s age shouted. The boy’s brother and dad looked out the window. Another young boy, sitting with his parents and grandparents, chatted excitedly in Spanish. Josh shrugged at his mom. “‘Grande’ means ‘big’, but I’m not sure I know what ‘serpiente’ means,” she said.
Josh peered out the window too. Maybe ‘serpiente’ meant “snake”. He’d done a research report on snakes and knew there were some big ones in Mexico. Seeing a snake in its native habitat would be cool.
Soon they arrived. The cenote looked like a large pond with a sharp rock face surrounding half of it. A jungle enveloped the rest. Josh dipped a toe in. It felt like the springtime lake water back home in Wisconsin. Josh and his mom slowly got into the clear water. Fish of varying sizes swam lazily among the rocks, their fins (鰭) barely moving.
After a little while, Josh heard a splash. The boys from the van were jumping into an open area roped off by floating objects. “Looks fun,” Josh’s mom said, “Why don’t you join them?” “But I don’t speak Spanish,” said Josh. “I don’t think you need to,” his mom said. “Maybe not.” Josh moved toward the edge and stepped out.
The sun was soon cooking his back, so Josh sat on a bench in the shade while trying to get up the courage to join the boys. Away from the water, it was quiet. Then Josh heard a rustling (沙沙声) in the brush.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。

Looking excited, the other boys climbed out of the water and raced toward Josh.

W: I learned it from my grandmother when I was seven.
M: Could you share your learning experience with us?
W: With pleasure. Usually, the bamboo under my feet is about nine meters long, and the bamboo in my hands is about five meters long. I fell in the water several times when I was practicing. So, keeping my body from falling into the water is the most difficult part of bamboo drifting.
M: What makes you keep going?
W: Just the love for the ancient skill. In the past 17 years I have been drifting all year round in winter cold and summer heat. Now I am able to do Chinese Qinggong on the water. And I put dance into bamboo drifting to make it elegant. As human culture has been on the rise, I started wearing Hanfu when performing, creating a beautiful feel.
M: We all know you registered on social media platforms and posted your videos.
W: Yes. I want to spread it to other countries so that more people around the world will like Chinese culture.

【原文】W: Microplastics are everywhere in our environment. Measuring 50 to 500 micrometers in length, microplastics come from a variety of sources, including large plastics that break down into smaller pieces. Therefore, much remains unknown about the common existence of these materials within the human body, as well as their impact on human health. A research team led by Kieran Cox studied 26 papers on the amount of microplastics in common foods. Using previously reported data, the team evaluated the potential consumption of microplastics and calculated annual intake via food and drink at 34,000 to 52,000 particles. The study found that people who drink only bottled water absorb an additional 90,000 microplastic stick each year, compared to 4000 among those who only drink tap water. But the food and drink that the researchers analyzed represent 15% of Americans a caloric intake. The team couldn't account for food groups like fruits, vegetables and grains. Because there simply is not enough data on their microplastic content. For those who are worried about microplastic consumption, cutting down bottled water is a good start. But as for the heart of the problem, we have to stop producing and using so much plastic.

(人口压力增加和农业扩张导致森林转变为农田、城市区域和工业区。)”、第三段“Industrial activities, such as Bangladesh’s textile industry, release untreated wastewater into rivers, destroying aquatic habitats and harming downstream communities. Overfishing and illegal wildlife trade further endanger species, leading to ecosystem imbalances.(诸如孟加拉国纺织业等工业活动,将未经处理的废水排入河流,既破坏水生栖息地,又危害下游社区。过度捕捞与非法野生动物贸易则进一步危及物种生存,导致生态系统失衡。)”可知,人口增长和人类生产活动是亚洲生物多样性丧失的关键推动因素。故选B项。

【导语】这是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者本以为写遗嘱只是简单文书工作,却借此反思人生,意识到物品与人和回忆相连,死亡不可怕,爱与当下才是最该珍惜、传承的重要事物。
【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“Writing about my possessions made me think not of objects, but of people— my children, my partner, my friends. Suddenly, I saw how every choice I make is connected to love. The books on my shelves, the photographs on the wall, even the recipes in my kitchen are not just things; they are extensions of care, memory, and joy.(写下自己的物品,让我想到的不是物件本身,而是身边的人 —— 我的孩子、伴侣与朋友。突然间我意识到,自己做的每一个选择都与爱紧密相连。书架上的书、墙上的照片,甚至厨房里的食谱,都不只是寻常物件;它们是关怀、回忆与喜悦的延伸。)”可知,作者在写遗嘱时意识到生活中的物品与人和回忆紧密相连。故选C项。
【25题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“I felt lighter after finishing the document. Instead of fear, I carried gratitude. (完成文件后,我感觉更轻松了。心中没有了恐惧,取而代之的是感激。)”可知,作者对死亡的态度变得更平静且充满感激。故选D项。
【26题详解】词句猜测题。根据第四段“I saw my life not as incomplete but as perpetual, filled with small opportunities to live with intention. (我不再认为我的人生是不完整的,而是perpetual,充满了有意识地生活的微小机会。)”并结合最后一段“And if I am mindful, then even in the ordinary rhythm of my days, I am already leaving behind what matters most.(只要我用心感知,即便在日复一日的平凡节奏里,也早已留下了那些最为珍贵的东西。)”可推测, 作者认为人生的价值会通过传递的爱与美好延续,并非随着生命终结而消失,因此perpetual应表达“持久的、永恒的”含义。故选C项。
【27题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段“Suddenly, I saw how every choice I make is connected to love.(突然间我意识到,自己做的每一个选择,都与爱息息相关。)”、第四段“If facing death teaches anything, it is that the present moment is our most generous gift. (若直面死亡能让人领悟什么,那便是当下这一刻,才是我们所拥有的最珍贵的馈赠。)”及最后一段“And if I am mindful, then even in the ordinary rhythm of my days, I am already leaving behind what matters most.(只要我用心感知,即便在日复一日的平凡节奏里,也早已留下了那些最为珍贵的东西。)”可知,文章核心是“爱与当下最为重要”。故选D项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了Alex Kachkine 开发的一种利用数字技术进行艺术修复的新方法,这种新方法就像是艺术修复的新画笔。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Traditionally, conservators restore paintings by recreating the artwork’s exact colors to fill in the damage, one spot at a time. Even with the help of X-ray imaging and coloring analyses, several parts of the expensive process, such as the cleaning and restoring, are done by hand.( 传统上,修复人员通过重现艺术品的确切颜色来填补损坏,一次一个地方来修复画作。即使在X射线成像和着色分析的帮助下,一些昂贵的过程,如清洁和修复,都是手工完成的。)”可知,传统的艺术修复需要一次一个点地重现艺术品的确切颜色来填补损坏处,而且像清洁和修复等几个过程都由手工完成。这表明传统艺术修复消耗更多的人力。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Based on this version, Kachkine’s new software creates a digital map of the retouches (修复点) with exact colors, necessary to fill the gaps present in the painting today.( 基于这个版本,Kachkine的新软件用精确的颜色创建了一个数字地图,填补了今天绘画中存在的空白。)”可知,Kachkine 的新软件可以创建一个带有精确颜色的修复点的数字地图。故选B项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“The retouches were generated by matching the surrounding color, copying similar patterns visible elsewhere in the painting or the artist’s style in other paintings.( 这些修饰是通过匹配周围的颜色、复制画作中其他地方可见的类似图案或艺术家在其他画作中的风格来产生的。)”可知,对15世纪油画的修复是通过匹配周围颜色、复制画作中其他地方可见的相似图案或画家在其他画作中的风格来实现的,这意味着是通过研究画家的绘画技巧来完成修复的。故选D项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第二段中“That’s where Alex Kachkine comes in. The MIT student has developed a way to apply digital restorations onto a damaged painting. In short, the approach involves using pre-existing AI tools to create a digital version of what the freshly painted artwork would have looked like.( 这就是Alex Kachkine的用武之地。这位麻省理工学院的学生发明了一种将数字修复应用于受损画作的方法。简而言之,这种方法涉及使用已有的人工智能工具来创建新绘制的艺术品的数字版本。)”可知,文章主要介绍了Alex Kachkine 开发的一种利用数字技术进行艺术修复的新方法,这种新方法就像是艺术修复的新画笔。由此可知,文章最适合的标题是“艺术修复的新画笔”。故选B项。

(马丁·路德大学和联邦职业教育培训研究所的一项新研究表明,善意的幽默有助于医疗助理以积极方式应对紧张的工作日。研究人员调查了600多名医疗助理,发现那些偏爱轻松、善意幽默的人对工作更满意,也收到了更多积极反馈。)”可知主要发现是“善意幽默提升MA工作满意度”。故选A项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Medical assistants mostly work in primary health care, especially medical practices. In Germany, becoming an MA requires three years of vocational training. Their daily routine is highly demanding: they handle administrative tasks, take blood samples, and apply wound dressings. “Medical assistants are in very close contact with patients most of the day. They have significant responsibility and experience high stress,” says Julia Raceke, a doctoral researcher at MLU. (医疗助理主要在初级医疗保健机构工作,尤其是在医疗诊所。在德国,成为医疗助理需要三年的职业培训。他们的日常工作要求极高:处理行政任务、采集血样、更换伤口敷料。马丁·路德大学的博士研究员朱莉娅·拉切克说:“医疗助理几乎整天与患者密切接触,责任重大,压力也很高。”)”可知,本段意在“提供医疗助理的背景信息”。故选D项。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Surprisingly, not all forms of dark humour connected negatively with well-being—satire and irony showed no negative effects. However, cynicism and sarcasm were mostly harmful. (令人惊讶的是,并非所有黑色幽默都与幸福感负相关——讽刺与反讽无负面影响,而愤世嫉俗与嘲讽大多有害。)”可知“不同类型黑色幽默效果不同”。故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理推断题。根据末段“Using humour consciously and appropriately can make patient interactions more pleasant. The findings may also help develop new training programs to enhance MAs’ social and emotional skills through online tools. (有意识地、恰当地使用幽默可以让医患互动更愉快。研究结果还可能有助于开发新的培训项目,通过在线工具提升医疗助理的社交和情感技能。)”可知,团队把幽默视为“需要谨慎运用的有价值工具”。故选B项。

Keep Our Campus Clean: Start with the Water Fountain
Have you ever noticed the unpleasant scene around the water fountains in our teaching buildings? Puddles of water often cover the ground, making it dangerously slippery. What’s worse, some students leave waste like empty bottles and tissue paper right there, which not only ruins the tidy campus environment but also greatly increases the risk of accidental falls.
A clean and safe drinking area is vital for every student. Let’s take small but meaningful actions: wipe the water fountain after use to avoid splashes, take all trash with us when leaving, and remind our peers to follow these rules.
Remember, maintaining public facilities is a shared responsibility. Together, we can make our campus a more pleasant place to live and study.

第二节(满分25分)
His heart beat faster. Josh inched closer to the brush, driven by a mix of excitement and nervousness. Then he saw it — a beautiful snake, about four feet long, with clear patterns of brown and tan, moving slowly into a patch of sun just several yards away. Its head was narrow and egg-shaped, not flat and triangular. From his research report, Josh remembered that this shape usually meant it wasn’t poisonous. A wave of relief mixed with caution washed over him. Even though it seemed safe, he knew it was important not to get too close. After watching quietly for a few more seconds, he carefully got up, took several steps backward, then turned and ran toward the others, shouting, “Snake!” (116 words)
Looking excited, the other boys climbed out of the water and raced toward Josh. Seeing Josh’s fixed gaze and tense posture, they followed his line of sight. To communicate the danger without words, Josh slowly raised his arm, weaving it through the air in a silent, sinuous imitation of the snake’s movement. The boy who had shouted in the van gasped, his eyes lighting up with understanding. “Serpiente!” he exclaimed, and the others nodded vigorously, repeating the word. In that moment, Josh understood. Serpiente meant snake. His mom was right—he didn’t need to speak Spanish to connect. With the mystery solved and the snake calmly observed from afar, the boy grinned and jerked his head toward the water. Josh smiled back, and together they all ran, laughing, back to the cool embrace of the cenote. (121 words)
