Vitamin C wears many hats in the human body, and its benefits go far beyond just helping you fight off a cold.
·Vitamin C helps produce white blood cells, your body’s first line of defense against infection. It also strengthens the skin’s natural barrier, making it harder for harmful microbes (微生物) to get in.
·Vitamin C is a powerful antioxidant. It helps fight harmful free radicals (自由基) that can damage cells and contribute to aging and diseases like cancer and heart disease.
·Vitamin C is critical for making collagen (胶原蛋白), the protein that keeps your skin firm, your joints flexible, and your connective tissues strong. It also supports skin health, wound healing, and even maintains healthy gums.
·Vitamin C helps your body absorb non-heme iron found in plant-based foods like spinach and beans. This is especially important for vegetarians, pregnant women, or anyone at risk of iron shortage.
The amount of Vitamin C needed each day varies among people:
·Children: 40-75 mg/day;
·Teenagers: 90 mg/ day
·Adults: 100mg/day
Vitamin C is found in various fruits and vegetables, especially fresh, raw produce. Including a mix of these foods in your diet is a smart way to meet your daily Vitamin C needs.

Now 56, the adventurer Bouchra Baibanou only took up mountaineering in earnest in her early 40s, going on to become the first North African woman to climb the world’s seven highest summits (山顶).
Baibanou discovered a passion for hiking as a child at summer camp. As an adult, she volunteered with a group that guided tourists and continued to develop her hiking skills. In 2011, she made a decision to climb Kilimanjaro. At the beginning, she didn’t expect to reach the summit. “I was afraid. But I was curious to know what my body would do and how it would react, so I pushed myself beyond my limits.” When she returned from Kilimanjaro, she began to think, “Why not dream big?”
Baibanou trains very hard: yoga, bodybuilding, and swimming. Even with the most thorough preparation, however, she still suffered a lot when facing the tough natural environment. Climbing Mount Everest, she had snow blindness. “I couldn’t read anything. Everything was just white.” Her vision eventually returned, but she suffered severe frostbite (冻伤), too. “My fingers were all black. I went from the mountain directly to the hospital.” Fortunately, no fingers were sacrificed.
There is also a mental load that comes with attempting such risky challenges. She has lost friends to the mountains, and doesn’t take risks lightly, saying that “80% of the accidents happen during descent, because people think it’s over. In the mountains, we say, your success doesn’t happen until you come down.” Unlike many sports, where an athlete’s greatest prize is gold,“Here your medal is your life.”
“Many people think that Muslim women can’t do things.” she says. “But when they see me do what I do, they know that we are free.” She has founded an organization in Morocco, teaching young girls about hiking and teamwork. She is reshaping what female North African sportswomen can achieve.
4. What can we learn about Baibanou from the first two paragraphs?
A. She began climbing in her fifties. B. She reached the top of Kilimanjaro.
C. She volunteered at a summer camp. D. She set a record for the fastest climb.
5. What happened when Baibanou climbed Mount Everest?
A. She experienced temporary vision loss.
B. She was forced to end the climb earlier.
C. She lost several fingers to serious frostbite.
D. She was not fully prepared before the climb.
6 What does the underlined word “descent” in the Paragraph 4 mean?
A. The upward climb. B. The process of training.
C. The return journey. D. The pursuit of a medal.
7. What does Baibanou’s experience show?
A. Knowledge is power. B. Your mind shapes your world.
C. Fortune favors the brave. D. The early bird catches the worm.
C
The commonly held belief that happiness follows a U-shaped curve — with peaks at the beginning and end of life — might be incorrect according to a recent study done by Fabian Kratz and Josef Brüderl at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich in Germany.
Kratz says he was motivated to revisit the claim “because the U-curve did not reflect my personal experiences with older people”. So the pair looked at self-reported happiness statistics of 70,922 adults who took part in an annual survey in Germany between 1984 and 2017. They then modelled how happiness changed within each person’s life.
Rather than forming a U-shaped curve, they found that happiness generally declines slowly throughout adulthood until people’s late 50s, when it begins to rise upwards until 64, then drops dramatically.
One of the reasons Kratz believes previous studies have come to incorrect conclusions is that they oversimplify the trajectory (轨迹) of happiness, partly by ignoring deaths brought about by ill health. “You get the impression that after a certain age, happiness would increase only because the unhappy people are already dead,” says Kratz.
Others say the results raise new questions. “This study is remarkable in that it reveals what we’re really trying to know in research,” says Philip Cohen, a professor of social economics at the University of Maryland, “but further study should be done to learn why happiness changes throughout life and if the dramatic drop can be avoided.”
What should be noted is that the pair didn’t control for factors such as marriage and income, which may influence happiness, and the study only looked at one country. Despite all these, the findings could have effects on policy. “Previous scholars argued that we need positive action policies to help individuals deal with their midlife crisis,” says Kratz. “but our results suggest that the most urgent issue is to address happiness decline in old age.”
8. How did Kratz and Brüderl carry out the study?
A. By doing observation. B. By analyzing data.
C. By conducting surveys. D. By applying theories.
9. When is an adult likely to be the happiest according to Kratz’s study?
A. In his late 40s. B. In his early 50s.
C. In his early 60s. D. In his late 70s.
10. What is Philip Cohen’s attitude towards the new study?
A. Highly critical. B. Firmly opposed.
C. Deeply doubtful. D. Cautiously favorable.
11. What can be inferred about the study from the last paragraph?
A. It controlled for factors properly. B. It focuses on solving midlife crisis.
C. It collected data in a scientific way. D. It provides insights for policymakers.
D
More than 60 years ago, Rosie the Robot made her TV debut (首次亮相) in The Jetsons, buzzing from room to room completing housework. Now, as scientists work to develop modern-day Rosies, one ordinary task is proving to be a big problem: folding laundry.
While it seems ordinary to pick up a T-shirt and fold it into a neat square it requires a surprisingly complex understanding of how objects move in three dimensions. With a learned understanding of how different fabrics (布料) will respond when folded, humans can accomplish such tasks with ease. But for robots, if new situations differ from their training, they will have difficulty applying what they learn. As a result, current robots are slow and often perform poorly on even the simplest of folding tasks.
Many robotic systems use a folding strategy called “pick and place”. The robot uses computer vision technology to identify a specific point on a shirt (like the left sleeve), then pick up that point and place it down at a different point (perhaps the right sleeve). The origin, destination and trajectory of the movement is pre-determined. Any unexpected change will result in an incorrect fold. Measured by a metric (度规) called IoU (1 is perfect), this strategy only scored 0. 41 in a 2024 study.
New technologies aim to make robots better at reacting to real-time changes during a folding task. One of these approaches is called AdaFold. Unlike pick and place, AdaFold can change its plan in the middle of a fold. When folding, the model repeatedly monitors the fabric to measure progress, so that it can adapt to changes and adjust when necessary to ensure the most overlap (重叠). In the same 2024 study, AdaFold scored an IoU of 0. 83.
AdaFold shows dynamic, adaptable response. It could help researchers design smarter robots that respond flexibly to the ever-changing human world. Hopefully in the near future, robots will free us from housework like folding laundry.
12. Why does the author mention Rosie the Robot at the beginning?
A. To explain a concept. B. To lead in the topic.
C. To introduce a product. D. To promote the TV series.
13. What writing technique is mainly used in Paragraph 2?
A. Giving examples. B. Raising a question.
C. Using repetition. D. Making a contrast.
14. How does AdaFold differ from “pick and place” in folding clothes?
A. It plans all steps before moving. B. It works faster on heavy fabrics.
C. It uses simpler vision technology. D. It adjusts its actions during folding.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Rosie the Robot: a target for criticism.
B. Home robots: an assistant for research.
C. Folding laundry: a challenge for robots.
D. AdaFold: an approach to training robots.

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。
Around 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by February. Why? Because most approaches to habit formation only rely on motivation and unclear goal-setting. ____16____. It’s gradual shifts that naturally become part of your routine. Here’s how:
Take small steps
Creating lasting habits doesn’t require an extreme restructure of your lifestyle overnight. Instead, start small by choosing one achievable change. Rather than committing to a 30-minute workout, begin with just 5-10 minutes and gradually build up. ____17____
Set clear intentions
____18____. Instead of saying, “I won’t eat sugar,” shift to, “I’ll have a protein-rich breakfast every morning.” Rather than thinking, “I need to stop wasting time,” say, “I’ll devote 10 minutes to reading before bed.” The more specific your plan, the easier it is to follow through.
____19____
An effective way to make habits stick is by fixing them to something you already do. Drink a glass of water after brushing your teeth, or stretch for 30 seconds after getting out of bed. Your environment can also serve as a signal. For example, you can place a book on your pillow as a trigger (触发因素) to read before bed. Making new habits easy and natural increases the chances of success.
Associate with pleasure
Enjoyment plays a crucial role in making habits sustainable. The more pleasure you associate with a habit, the more likely you are to stick with it. ____20____. If you want to be more active, choose an activity you truly enjoy.
In short, you don’t need more motivation, you need a system that works for you. Lasting habits come from small, intentional choices made consistently over time.
A. Start with a reminder
B. Make steady progress
C. Your entire life is essentially the sum of your habits
D. Focus on what you will do rather than what you won’t
E. If you want to drink more water, try adding lemon to it
F. However, the key to lasting habits isn’t massive changes
G. Constant progress leads to big transformations over time

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。
“Can we host a family reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve?” my eleven-year-old daughter asked eagerly. I wanted to respond, “No.” I really hated cooking, cleaning, and anything related to hosting a dinner for twenty people. In my opinion, going over to my sister’s house sounded much more appealing.
But I knew that wasn’t the answer she was looking for. Instead, I responded like any mom would, “Maybe.”
“YES!” My daughter screamed as she balled up her fist.
“Why are you excited and saying ‘yes’?” I asked curiously.
“Because ‘maybe’ always ends up being ‘yes’,” she said, her voice bubbling with excitement.
Over the next week, I made a long list of all the reasons why going to Auntie’s house for Spring Festival would be far superior to hosting at our own house.
Returning home one evening, I found a carefully designed task list of “New Year’s Eve Project” posted on the refrigerator. In the kitchen, my daughter was sorting through New Year decorations she had ordered online.
“Mom, look!” she exclaimed, holding up a delicate paper cutting. “This is for window decoration. For New Year’s Eve, I volunteer to manage the drinks and desserts. Dad has agreed to take charge of hanging the couplets and lanterns. We can work together like a project team.”
At that moment, the expression on her face — a mixture of a planner’s seriousness and a child’s pure excitement — suddenly struck me. What she longed for was never a convenient feast, but that sense of participation — of each family member contributing and connecting for a shared, beautiful purpose. It is this very act of“building together” that gives “home” its unique sense of closeness during these special times.
In my heart, I silently crossed out the long list of reasons for going to Auntie’s house. “Well then,” I heard my voice soften as I reached out to gently brush the hair from her forehead. “Where shall we begin, project manager?”
“YES!” Again, my daughter screamed as she pumped her fist.
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。
In the days that followed, our home shifted into action.

Now 56, the adventurer Bouchra Baibanou only took up mountaineering in earnest in her early 40s, going on to become the first North African woman to climb the world’s seven highest summits (山顶).
Baibanou discovered a passion for hiking as a child at summer camp. As an adult, she volunteered with a group that guided tourists and continued to develop her hiking skills. In 2011, she made a decision to climb Kilimanjaro. At the beginning, she didn’t expect to reach the summit. “I was afraid. But I was curious to know what my body would do and how it would react, so I pushed myself beyond my limits.” When she returned from Kilimanjaro, she began to think, “Why not dream big?”
Baibanou trains very hard: yoga, bodybuilding, and swimming. Even with the most thorough preparation, however, she still suffered a lot when facing the tough natural environment. Climbing Mount Everest, she had snow blindness. “I couldn’t read anything. Everything was just white.” Her vision eventually returned, but she suffered severe frostbite (冻伤), too. “My fingers were all black. I went from the mountain directly to the hospital.” Fortunately, no fingers were sacrificed.
There is also a mental load that comes with attempting such risky challenges. She has lost friends to the mountains, and doesn’t take risks lightly, saying that “80% of the accidents happen during descent, because people think it’s over. In the mountains, we say, your success doesn’t happen until you come down.” Unlike many sports, where an athlete’s greatest prize is gold,“Here your medal is your life.”
“Many people think that Muslim women can’t do things.” she says. “But when they see me do what I do, they know that we are free.” She has founded an organization in Morocco, teaching young girls about hiking and teamwork. She is reshaping what female North African sportswomen can achieve.
4. What can we learn about Baibanou from the first two paragraphs?
A. She began climbing in her fifties. B. She reached the top of Kilimanjaro.
C. She volunteered at a summer camp. D. She set a record for the fastest climb.
5. What happened when Baibanou climbed Mount Everest?
A. She experienced temporary vision loss.
B. She was forced to end the climb earlier.
C. She lost several fingers to serious frostbite.
D. She was not fully prepared before the climb.
6. What does the underlined word “descent” in the Paragraph 4 mean?
A. The upward climb. B. The process of training.
C. The return journey. D. The pursuit of a medal.
7. What does Baibanou’s experience show?
A. Knowledge is power. B. Your mind shapes your world.
C. Fortune favors the brave. D. The early bird catches the worm.
【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. C

The commonly held belief that happiness follows a U-shaped curve — with peaks at the beginning and end of life — might be incorrect according to a recent study done by Fabian Kratz and Josef Brüderl at the Ludwig Maximilian University of Munich in Germany.
Kratz says he was motivated to revisit the claim “because the U-curve did not reflect my personal experiences with older people”. So the pair looked at self-reported happiness statistics of 70,922 adults who took part in an annual survey in Germany between 1984 and 2017. They then modelled how happiness changed within each person’s life.
Rather than forming a U-shaped curve, they found that happiness generally declines slowly throughout adulthood until people’s late 50s, when it begins to rise upwards until 64, then drops dramatically.
One of the reasons Kratz believes previous studies have come to incorrect conclusions is that they oversimplify the trajectory (轨迹) of happiness, partly by ignoring deaths brought about by ill health. “You get the impression that after a certain age, happiness would increase only because the unhappy people are already dead,” says Kratz.
Others say the results raise new questions. “This study is remarkable in that it reveals what we’re really trying to know in research,” says Philip Cohen, a professor of social economics at the University of Maryland, “but further study should be done to learn why happiness changes throughout life and if the dramatic drop can be avoided.”
What should be noted is that the pair didn’t control for factors such as marriage and income, which may influence happiness, and the study only looked at one country. Despite all these, the findings could have effects on policy. “Previous scholars argued that we need positive action policies to help individuals deal with their midlife crisis,” says Kratz. “but our results suggest that the most urgent issue is to address happiness decline in old age.”
8. How did Kratz and Brüderl carry out the study?
A. By doing observation. B. By analyzing data.
C. By conducting surveys. D. By applying theories.
9. When is an adult likely to be the happiest according to Kratz’s study?
A. In his late 40s. B. In his early 50s.
C. In his early 60s. D. In his late 70s.
10. What is Philip Cohen’s attitude towards the new study?
A. Highly critical. B. Firmly opposed.
C. Deeply doubtful. D. Cautiously favorable.
11. What can be inferred about the study from the last paragraph?
A. It controlled for factors properly. B. It focuses on solving midlife crisis.
C. It collected data in a scientific way. D. It provides insights for policymakers.
【答案】8. B 9. C 10. D 11. D

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了德国研究人员的一项新研究,该研究挑战了幸福呈U形曲线的传统观点,指出幸福在成年后逐渐下降,直到50多岁后期开始上升,64岁后急剧下降。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“So the pair looked at self-reported happiness statistics of 70,922 adults who took part in an annual survey in Germany between 1984 and 2017. They then modelled how happiness changed within each person’s life.(因此,两人查看了70922名成年人的自我报告幸福统计数据,这些成年人参加了1984年至2017年在德国进行的一项年度调查。然后,他们模拟了每个人一生中幸福的变化)”可知,Kratz和Brüderl通过分析数据来进行这项研究。故选B项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Rather than forming a U-shaped curve, they found that happiness generally declines slowly throughout adulthood until people’s late 50s, when it begins to rise upwards until 64, then drops dramatically.(他们发现,幸福并没有形成U形曲线,而是在整个成年期缓慢下降,直到人们50多岁后期开始上升,直到64岁,然后急剧下降)”可知,根据Kratz的研究,成年人在64岁(即60岁出头/早期)时幸福感达到一个高点。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Others say the results raise new questions. “This study is remarkable in that it reveals what we’re really trying to know in research,” says Philip Cohen, a professor of social economics at the University of Maryland, “but further study should be done to learn why happiness changes throughout life and if the dramatic drop can be avoided.”(其他人则表示,这些结果提出了新的问题。马里兰大学的社会经济学教授Philip Cohen说:“这项研究的非凡之处在于,它揭示了我们在研究中真正想要了解的东西,但还需要进一步研究,以了解为什么幸福在一生中会发生变化,以及这种急剧下降是否可以避免。”)”可知,Philip Cohen认为这项研究揭示了有价值的信息,但还需要进一步研究,由此可推知,Philip Cohen对新研究持谨慎支持的态度。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Despite all these, the findings could have effects on policy. “Previous scholars argued that we need positive action policies to help individuals deal with their midlife crisis,” says Kratz. “but our results suggest that the most urgent issue is to address happiness decline in old age.”(尽管如此,这些发现可能会对政策产生影响。Kratz说:“以前的学者认为,我们需要积极的行动政策来帮助个人应对中年危机。但我们的研究结果表明,最紧迫的问题是解决老年幸福下降的问题。”)”可知,尽管该研究存在局限,但其发现为政策制定者提供了新的见解和可能的着力方向。故选D项。

More than 60 years ago, Rosie the Robot made her TV debut (首次亮相) in The Jetsons, buzzing from room to room completing housework. Now, as scientists work to develop modern-day Rosies, one ordinary task is proving to be a big problem: folding laundry.
While it seems ordinary to pick up a T-shirt and fold it into a neat square, it requires a surprisingly complex understanding of how objects move in three dimensions. With a learned understanding of how different fabrics (布料) will respond when folded, humans can accomplish such tasks with ease. But for robots, if new situations differ from their training, they will have difficulty applying what they learn. As a result, current robots are slow and often perform poorly on even the simplest of folding tasks.
Many robotic systems use a folding strategy called “pick and place”. The robot uses computer vision technology to identify a specific point on a shirt (like the left sleeve), then pick up that point and place it down at a different point (perhaps the right sleeve). The origin, destination and trajectory of the movement is pre-determined. Any unexpected change will result in an incorrect fold. Measured by a metric (度规) called IoU (1 is perfect), this strategy only scored 0. 41 in a 2024 study.
New technologies aim to make robots better at reacting to real-time changes during a folding task. One of these approaches is called AdaFold. Unlike pick and place, AdaFold can change its plan in the middle of a fold. When folding, the model repeatedly monitors the fabric to measure progress, so that it can adapt to changes and adjust when necessary to ensure the most overlap (重叠). In the same 2024 study, AdaFold scored an IoU of 0. 83.
AdaFold shows dynamic, adaptable response. It could help researchers design smarter robots that respond flexibly to the ever-changing human world. Hopefully in the near future, robots will free us from housework like folding laundry.
12. Why does the author mention Rosie the Robot at the beginning?
A. To explain a concept. B. To lead in the topic.
C. To introduce a product. D. To promote the TV series.
13. What writing technique is mainly used in Paragraph 2?
A. Giving examples. B. Raising a question.
C. Using repetition. D. Making a contrast.
14. How does AdaFold differ from “pick and place” in folding clothes?
A. It plans all steps before moving. B. It works faster on heavy fabrics.
C. It uses simpler vision technology. D. It adjusts its actions during folding.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Rosie the Robot: a target for criticism.
B. Home robots: an assistant for research.
C. Folding laundry: a challenge for robots.
D. AdaFold: an approach to training robots.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章以动画角色“罗西”为引子,探讨了机器人发展中所面临的一个看似普通却极具挑战性的任务——折叠衣物,介绍了传统策略的局限和新技术AdaFold的适应性改进。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“More than 60 years ago, Rosie the Robot made her TV debut (首次亮相) in The Jetsons, buzzing from room to room completing housework.Now, as scientists work to develop modern-day Rosies, one ordinary task is proving to be a big problem: folding laundry. (六十多年前,机器人罗西在《杰森一家》中首次亮相荧幕,嗡嗡作响地在房间里穿梭处理家务。如今,当科学家们致力于研发现代版“罗西”时,一项看似普通的任务被证明是个大问题:折叠衣物)”可知,作者提及动画角色罗西是为了引出文章要讨论的核心话题——研发能做家务的机器人所面临的具体挑战。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“With a learned understanding of how different fabrics (布料) will respond when folded, humans can accomplish such tasks with ease. But for robots, if new situations differ from their training, they will have difficulty applying what they learn. As a result, current robots are slow and often perform poorly on even the simplest of folding tasks. (人类凭借对不同布料折叠时会如何响应的习得理解,可以轻松完成此类任务。但对于机器人来说,如果新情况与它们的训练不同,它们将难以应用所学。因此,当前的机器人速度缓慢,即使在最简单的折叠任务上也常常表现不佳)”可知,本段主要将人类与机器人进行对比,以突出机器人处理折叠任务的困难和局限。因此主要使用了对比的写作手法。故选D项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“Unlike pick and place, AdaFold can change its plan in the middle of a fold. When folding, the model repeatedly monitors the fabric to measure progress, so that it can adapt to changes and adjust when necessary to ensure the most overlap (重叠). (与“拾放”策略不同,AdaFold可以在折叠过程中改变计划。在折叠时,该模型反复监测布料以评估进展,以便它能适应变化并在必要时进行调整,确保最大的重叠度)”可知,AdaFold与“拾放”策略的不同之处在于,它能在折叠过程中调整其动作。故选D项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,特别是第一段中提出的核心问题“one ordinary task is proving to be a big problem: folding laundry. (一项看似普通的任务被证明是个大问题:折叠衣物)”以及后续段落对这一问题复杂性和解决进展的探讨可知,文章主要围绕“折叠衣物这一任务对机器人构成挑战”这一中心展开。故C项“Folding laundry: a challenge for robots (折叠衣物:对机器人的一个挑战)”能概括文章主旨,适合作文章标题。故选C项。

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。
Around 80% of New Year’s resolutions fail by February. Why? Because most approaches to habit formation only rely on motivation and unclear goal-setting. ____16____. It’s gradual shifts that naturally become part of your routine. Here’s how:
Take small steps
Creating lasting habits doesn’t require an extreme restructure of your lifestyle overnight. Instead, start small by choosing one achievable change. Rather than committing to a 30-minute workout, begin with just 5-10 minutes and gradually build up. ____17____
Set clear intentions
____18____. Instead of saying, “I won’t eat sugar,” shift to, “I’ll have a protein-rich breakfast every morning.” Rather than thinking, “I need to stop wasting time,” say, “I’ll devote 10 minutes to reading before bed.” The more specific your plan, the easier it is to follow through.
____19____
An effective way to make habits stick is by fixing them to something you already do. Drink a glass of water after brushing your teeth, or stretch for 30 seconds after getting out of bed. Your environment can also serve as a signal. For example, you can place a book on your pillow as a trigger (触发因素) to read before bed. Making new habits easy and natural increases the chances of success.
Associate with pleasure
Enjoyment plays a crucial role in making habits sustainable. The more pleasure you associate with a habit, the more likely you are to stick with it. ____20____. If you want to be more active, choose an activity you truly enjoy.
In short, you don’t need more motivation, you need a system that works for you. Lasting habits come from small, intentional choices made consistently over time.
A. Start with a reminder
B. Make steady progress
C. Your entire life is essentially the sum of your habits
D. Focus on what you will do rather than what you won’t
E. If you want to drink more water, try adding lemon to it
F. However, the key to lasting habits isn’t massive changes
G. Constant progress leads to big transformations over time
【答案】16. F 17. G 18. D 19. A 20. E

【36题详解】

【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这场名为“西方汉字,东方字母”的展览展出了100多件受汉字启发的原创作品。“(title) “Hanzi of the West, Letters of the East””作状语,title(给……命名)用非谓语动词形式,与其逻辑主语the exhibition之间是被动关系,用过去分词表被动;句首单词首字母大写。故填Titled。
【38题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:同济大学的吴云说:“主题标题邀请我们将汉字和字母文字不是看作对立面,而是看作伙伴:两种视觉逻辑,它们都记录声音、塑造意义和表达情感。”“_____ both record sound, shape meaning and express emotion”为限制性定语从句,修饰先行词two visual logics,指物,关系词将其代入定语从句中作主语,用关系代词that或which引导该从句。故填that/which。

【42题详解】

【44题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意:参观者可以了解汉字在形式和使用上几个世纪以来的变化,同时看到它如何继续激发今天的设计。shift(变化)是宾语从句中的谓语动词,结合时间状语“over centuries”可知,讲述从过去持续到现在的动词,用现在完成时,主语hanzi是第三人称单数,谓语动词用单数形式。故填has shifted。

【答案】
Dear Editor,
I’m glad to share my ideas about our school’s upcoming winter sports activities. I strongly recommend ice-skating. The reason why I choose it is that it’s a great way to keep fit in winter when it’s too cold for many outdoor activities. What’s more, ice-skating can improve our balance and coordination skills, which are beneficial to our overall development.
As for the activity plan, we can first invite professional coaches to give us some basic lessons. Then, we can organize an ice-skating competition. The students who perform well in the competition will be awarded prizes. I believe this activity will attract many students to participate.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节(满分25分)
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。
“Can we host a family reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve?” my eleven-year-old daughter asked eagerly. I wanted to respond, “No.” I really hated cooking, cleaning, and anything related to hosting a dinner for twenty people. In my opinion, going over to my sister’s house sounded much more appealing.
But I knew that wasn’t the answer she was looking for. Instead I responded like any mom would, “Maybe.”
“YES!” My daughter screamed as she balled up her fist.
“Why are you excited and saying ‘yes’?” I asked curiously.
“Because ‘maybe’ always ends up being ‘yes’,” she said, her voice bubbling with excitement.
Over the next week, I made a long list of all the reasons why going to Auntie’s house for Spring Festival would be far superior to hosting at our own house.
Returning home one evening, I found a carefully designed task list of “New Year’s Eve Project” posted on the refrigerator. In the kitchen, my daughter was sorting through New Year decorations she had ordered online.
“Mom, look!” she exclaimed, holding up a delicate paper cutting. “This is for window decoration. For New Year’s Eve, I volunteer to manage the drinks and desserts. Dad has agreed to take charge of hanging the couplets and lanterns. We can work together like a project team.”
At that moment, the expression on her face — a mixture of a planner’s seriousness and a child’s pure excitement — suddenly struck me. What she longed for was never a convenient feast, but that sense of participation — of each family member contributing and connecting for a shared, beautiful purpose. It is this very act of“building together” that gives “home” its unique sense of closeness during these special times.
In my heart, I silently crossed out the long list of reasons for going to Auntie’s house. “Well then,” I heard my voice soften as I reached out to gently brush the hair from her forehead. “Where shall we begin, project manager?”
“YES!” Again, my daughter screamed as she pumped her fist.

In the days that followed, our home shifted into action.

When the big day came, all the guests present were impressed.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
In the days that followed, our home shifted into action. My husband dragged a ladder to hang red lanterns and couplets, his movements clumsy but earnest, while my daughter scurried around, arranging paper cuttings on the windows and testing different juice combinations for the drinks. I found myself rolling up my sleeves, rummaging through old recipes to plan the menu. Every evening, we’d gather in the kitchen to taste-test dumpling fillings, laughing as flour dusted our cheeks. The house, once quiet, now buzzed with the warm chaos of preparation.
When the big day came, all the guests present were impressed. The red lanterns cast a soft glow over the room, and the paper cuttings danced in the breeze from the open window. My daughter proudly served her homemade fruit tarts, her chest puffed out as everyone praised their sweetness. My husband beamed as relatives commented on the neatly hung couplets. As I brought out the steaming dumplings, I looked around the table — faces crinkled with smiles, voices overlapping with stories and laughter. It wasn’t just a meal; it was a tapestry of small, loving efforts woven together, making this New Year’s Eve feel truly like home.
