D.To entertain 岛 I come from a place renowned for its breathtaking landscapes and complex history.Growing up beneath chinar trees,I learned to see them as symbois of endurance,each branch a witness to centuries of conflict and suffering. In my hometown,carrying identification is as routine as carrying one's keys-a daily practice that acknowledges the underlying(潜在的)tension in our lives.. When I moved to Shanghai from abroad for my PhD at Tongji University in 2022,I thought that this same instinct()for caution would stay.But Shanghai offered something unexpected:a life shaped not by caution but by trust. Here in Shanghai,people leave bicycles unlocked,bags unattended,and walk freely without a second thought about their safety.You pick up deliveries without showing your ID,and people treat you not as an outsider but as someone who belongs here. It revealed a truth about human nature I had not fully understood that trust could be a foundation,a quiet norm rather than something rare.For the first time,I felt what it was like to trust a city itself,letting it hold me gently and carefully in its arms without the caution I'd long carried. In my hometown,safety is something we manage cautiously.We carry identification not as an option but as an unspoken rule,and we find our way through life with an awareness sharpened by necessity.But in Shanghai,safety is an unspoken promise rather than a guarded privilege ()I can walk alone at night without looking over my shoulder or even thinking to bring my ID-a freedom that felt almost unreal at first. Living in Shanghai has reshaped not only my understanding of trust and safety but also my understanding of home.For so long,home was connected with my hometown,to its chinar trees and its cautious routines.But Shanghai has shown me that home can be found in a sense of peace and freedom,in the ability to walk through life unburdened by caution.Home is not merely a place; it's a feeling rooted in safety,comfort,and the freedom to be oneself without restraint. 24.Why does the writer usually carry identification in his hometown? A.By instinct for caution B.Out of personal habit. C.Out of fear of losing it. D.For showing off himself. 25.What surprised the author about life in Shanghai? 3 A.The strict measures of security check. B.The city's historic landmarks and traditions. C.The strong sense of belonging among locals.D.The freedom and trust among its citizens. 26.How does Para.6 develop? A.By comparison.B.By description. C.By argument. D.By definition. 27.According to the text,what new understanding of home did the author gain in Shanghai? Home is defined by its physical location and routines. B.Home is a place where trust and safety are guaranteed. C.Home requires a balance between freedom and caution. D.Home is built on cultural identity and shared traditions. C Monica Gross,a 30-year-old comedian in Toronto,noticed something odd happening at house parties last year.People were ducking into bathrooms,hallways and quiet corners to record and listen to voice notes-audio recordings you send like a text.From house-party bathrooms to internet culture,voice notes are having a moment.Like all tech trends,the popularity of voice notes tells us about the connections people thirst for. Voice notes,which the sender speaks out loud,got basic placement in Apple's texting app Messages in 2014.Since then,they've been added to almost every major social media and messaging platform. To send one,you typically press and hold a microphone icon ()speak your mind and send it off.Depending on the app,you can review your note first,listen at a faster or slower speed,or go full circle and read an automated transcript(文字记录)of the note..People who rely on voice notes are convinced they solve a problem.For the burned out,they're a break from looking at screens.For the busy,they offer the convenience of talking without the commitment of a phone call. Unlike calling on the phone,voice notes don't demand immediate or lasting attention,said Leora Trub,who runs the Digital Media and Psychology Lab at Pace University.That makes voice notes just the right amount of vuinerable for young adults who,on the whole,have fewer friends than generations past,according to the Survey Center on American Life."The voice note is this attempt to go back to calling,without actually calling." Not everyone,however,is longing for a glimpse inside the mind of their loved ones.Annie Ridout,a writer in London,has three kids under 10 years old,and she feels a flash of frustration when,friends send voice notes during her working hours."I'm a busy working mum,and I don't want people adding to my workload."she said.That's a problem with voice notes,said Pace University's Trub.The recipient might not have time,interest or a pair of headphones. 28.Why is the example of Monica Gross used? A.To state closer connections. B.To prove people's busyness. C.To explain an internet culture. D.To show the rise of voice notes. 29.What does the underlined words "burned out"mean in Para.3? A.Motivated. B.Confused. C.Exhausted. D.Energized. 30.What is Para.4 mainly about? A.The advantages of voice notes. B.The weakness of young adults. C:The need of immediate attention. D.The attempt of lasting calling. 31.Why does Annie Ridout dislike voice notes? A.They are favorites of her kids. B.They are disturbance to her work. C.They are problems of her friends. D.They are the workload of the writer. 0 Gout ()is often associated with drinking too much or not eating healthily enough,but new 4 research suggests genetics play more of a factor in developing the arthritic(患关节炎的)condition than previously thought. The research,carried out by an international team of scientists,looked at genetic data collected from 2.6 million people across 13 different groups of DNA data.That number included 120,295 people with "prevalent gout' By comparing the genetic codes of the people with gout against the people without,the team found 377 specific DNA regions where there were variations specific to having the condition-149 of which hadn't been previously linked to gout. While lifestyle and environmental factors are certainly still in play,the findings suggest genetics play a major role in determining whether or not someone gets gout-and the researchers think there may be more undiscovered genetic links still to be found,too. "Gout is a disease with a genetic basis and is not the fault of the sufferer-the myth that gout is caused by lifestyle or diet needs to be broken,"says epidemiologist Tony Merriman,from the University of Otago in New Zealand. Gout can come and go,but there are treatments available-and the authors behind the new study think misconceptions can put people off getting those treatments.That's a real problem with cases of the condition rising and rising. "This widespread myth causes shame in people with gout,making some people more likely to suffer in silence and not go and see the doctor to get a preventive drug that lowers urate ()in the blood and will prevent their pain."says Merriman. There are some limitations to the study:the majority of the data was from people of Europeans, and some records relied on the self-reporting of gout rather than the data from hospital. Nevertheless,it gives us a much better sense of a health problem that's been making people suffering for centuries. "We hope that,in time,better and more accessible treatments will become available with the aew targets we identified."says Merriman. 32.What is the new finding of the research on gout? A.It is caused by diet. B.It is just a myth. C.Genetics.play a major role D.Lifestyle causes it. 33.Why are people with gout unwilling to see the doctor according to Merriman? A.False belief in the cause af gout. B.Lack of confidence in themselves. Preference tor preventive drugs. Doubt of effectiveness of treatments. 34.Which is the limitation of the study? A.Insufficient funds. B.Unscientific data. C.Ineffective methods D.Undesirable conditions. 35.Which word best describes the author's attitude to the research? A.Doubtful. B.Tolerant. C.Indifferent. D.Objective 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后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。 Polite Habits Job Interviewers Actually Dislike There's no way around it:Job interviews are stressful.That goes for everyone.After all,that interview is your chance to make a good impression,and if you don't,you can pretty much kiss that job goodbye.That's why you want to be as professional and polite as possible,but you might not be as polite as you think you're being.36 Being formal A formal situation calls for a few formalities.Your application letter should be professional, 5 your conversation shouldn't be too casual,and you should keep some private details private. 37,.But the world has become increasingly informal,and being overly formal is an etiquette (mistake too.If a candidate is overly formal,it's harder to connect with him/her, build trust and analyse if he/she matches the company's culture. 3 It can ba nard to talk about yourself,and highlighting your achievements may feel like bragging ()But it's important that your interviewer knows your direct contributions to your current or former companies instead of your team. Wearing formal business attire(服装) 39.While this is expected in some workplaces,more and more companies now have casual envircamients."You could appear out of touch with their culture if you show up in a suit and tie while your interviewers are wearing jeans,"Donovan says. Overpreparing Preparation is important-it shows your work principle and your commitment to getting this It is pussibre to be so prepared that your answers sound mechanised and uninteresting. wnich is the last thing an employer wants. A.Nlere is how it happens B.Not asking any questions C.This is a job inter vrew,after all D,:Talking about‘we'instead of‘me B.Here's what you need to be careful to land that job F.This actually removes your personality from the process G.Many people have been taught that a job interview calls for a suit 第三部分语言运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最 佳选项。 A curious thing happened today.As I went to the Walmart to buy something and swung around to 41,I saw that someone had left a shopping cart (in the spot.So I parked,and 42 the cart to the shopping cart bay.Then,I was going to enter the store.But the shopping cart had 43 a mind of its own.The wheels suddenly 44 and it began to head into the parking lot.I had to return and handle it again,when I noticed that there was something 45 in the bottom of the second cart.A set of keys!

Then one day,Robby stopped coming to our lessons.I thought about calling him but assumed, because of his lack of ability,that he had decided to pursue something else.I also was glad that he stopped coming.He was a bad advertisement for my teaching! Several weeks later,,I mailed to the student's homes a flyer on the upcoming recital(音乐演奏 )To my surprise Robby (who received a flyer)asked me if he could be in the recital.I told him that the recital was for current pupils and because he had dropped out,he really did not qualify.He said that his mom had been sick and unable to take him to piano lessons but he was still practicing. "Miss Hondorf...I've just got to play!"he insisted. I don't know what led me to allow him to play in the recital.Maybe it was his persistence or maybe it was something inside of me saying that it would be alright. The night for the recital came.The high school gym was packed with parents,friends and relatives.I put Robby up last in the program before I was to come up and thank all the students and play a finishing piece.I thought that any damage he would do would come at the end of the program and I could always save his poor performance through my"curtain closer" Well,the recital went smoothly as expected.The students had been practicing and it showed. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150个左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Then Robby came up on stage,and he pulled out the piano bench and began.
