B Last week,I visited my local bank to put a cheque into my account.While the procedure itself was relatively simple and user-friendly,I chose to double-check the details with the teller (to ensure accuracy.The teller, apparently new to role,was unsure about the steps.He called his manager for assistance.The manager patiently explained everything to me,and I really appreciated what he did. However,as the manager explained the steps,I couldn't help but notice the teller's lack of engagement. Instead of absorbing the guidance,he occupied himself with something else.What struck me most was the manager's passive response to this behavior.Rather than encouraging the teller to focus on his instruction attentively,he simply completed the task himself and returned to his office. On my way home,reflecting on the situation,I realized that the manager failed to use a preventive method. This might lead to the teller's asking for help again in the future,causing the manager to repeatedly leave his desk to manage the same issues.This would definitely interrupt the manager's routine work and waste his precious time, which could otherwise be better spent on his core duties.Obviously,if the root cause of the problem is not solved, such situation will happen more than once again,and it will potentially affect customer satisfaction This experience reveals a fundamental truth:It is a must to enable people to handle tasks independent of 试卷第4页，共12页 external assistance.We shouldn't emphasize the significance of having a clear vision too much.It involves predicting future needs and making the right moves to solve them.Thus,we should begin with the end in mind, planning for long-term success.After all,sustainable success begins not with fixing today's issues,but with preventing tomorrow's. 24.Why did the teller turn to the manager for help? A.He was busy with other affairs. B.The procedure was too complex. C.He had uncertainty as a new employee. D.The matter was not in the charge of him. 25.What kind of help did the manager offer to the teller? A.Absolute replacement. B.Passive response. C.Professional guidance D.Sincere encouragement 26.What key strategy does the author recommend to solve such issues? A.Making a further plan about regulation. B.Emphasizing the importance of prevention C.Having a clear vision of personal development. D.Cultivating independence through empowerment. 27.Which of the following proverbs best matches the main idea of the text? A.Many hands make light work. B.Nothing is difficult to the man who will try. C.Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. D.Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. C People are taking their health into their own hands it seems,as nearly half of UK adults(48%)have turned to online health information to self-diagnose in the past year,with 18%of 16-24-year-olds doing so at least four times, according to an AXA survey of 4,000 people.The trend reflects growing reliance on digital resources in social media for health advice. While common issues like hay fever (270),sunburn (19%),and colds (34%)dominate self-diagnoses,32% report self-diagnosing their mental health conditions.Cases of anxiety and ADHD (are increasingly 试卷第5页，共12页 self-identified through TikTok symptom checklists,though experts warn such methods lack clinical preciseness. One 24-year-old participant shared:"I diagnosed myself with depression after online tests,but my doctor later owed it to vitamin D deficiency." So,why are people turning to Dr Google for help?Over a third(36%)complained about the difficulties securing timely appointments,while 22%avoided the NHS due to fears of long waits.With NHS waiting lists hitting 7.5 million-a record high-Prime Minister Keir Starmer promised in January to end backlogs and make millions more appointments available,providing greater choice and convenience for patients. As patients increasingly use online research as a first step,AXa's report stresses the urgent need for reliable digital health ecosystems.Research shows 52%of UK adults encounter conflicting medical advice online,and 1 in 3 struggle to distinguish credible sources.To deal with this,the report proposes three measures:confirmation of the qualification for healthcare professionals on social media,stricter content grading policies,and automatic early warning for misleading claims-a system already piloted by many platforms for COVID-19 misinformation. With the healthcare system at a crossroads,bridging the gap between digital convenience and medical accuracy remains critical.As AXA's health director noted:"Letting patients make their own health decisions shouldn't mean abandoning them to a sea of misleading information." 28.What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A.Most of the self-diagnosis involve common diseases. B.The 24-year-old participant regretted self-diagnosing. C.Self-diagnosis of mental illnesses are not recommended. D.TikTok symptom checklists contributed to self-diagnosis. 29.What does the underlined word"backlogs"mean in Paragraph3? A.Technical errors. B.Staff shortages. C.Public complaints. D.Accumulated tasks. 30.What does AXA's report suggest about conflicting online advice? A.Qualifying online healthcare professionals. B.Establishing trustworthy online health system. C.Banning health-related content on social platforms. D.Warning healthcare professionals of the misinformation. 31.What can be inferred from the last Paragraph? A.It is urgent to provide accurate and handy online diagnosis. 试卷第6页，共12页 B.Digital diagnostic systems will replace traditional evaluations. C.It is vital to offer more financial support for healthcare system. D.Social media platforms should stop providing healthcare advice. D Picture a robot.What do you see?A metal machine built to last forever?Unfortunately,this very quality now threatens to drown the planet in extremely durable (e-waste.What if,instead,those machines were designed to break down and disappear-like life does?In a new study,researchers crafted a robotic arm,and a controller to operate it,,from pork gelatin(明胶)and plant cellulose(纤维素)一materials strong enough to function yet delicate enough to degrade (in the soil.After testing,both structures broke down in soil within weeks. Biodegradable robotics often falls under the umbrella of soft robotics.The field originated from materials science and chemistry rather than conventional robots that come from mechanical engineering.But a lot of early soft robots still relied on chemical materials that continue to exist as pollution. Pingdong Wei,a materials scientist at Westlake University in Hangzhou,teamed up with his friend Zhuang Zhang,a robotics engineer now at Fudan University in Shanghai,to assemble (robots for the study.They started with cellulose layers from cotton,then added glycerol for flexibility and dried the layers for strength. "Cellulose is also cheap and easy to assemble,"Wei says.To build sensors,the researchers used a conductive gelatin from pork.They then folded the layers and sensors into 3D structures. Wei and Zhang found the controller and robotic arm stood up to both heavy use and a week of inactivity. Finally,they buried them both in a 20-centimeter-deep hole near their campus.Within eight weeks the machines were almost entirely gone. Wei and Zhang envision robots like these handling dangerous waste and then disappearing they also propose robots that aid surgeries and then safely break down inside the body.But it's important to note that the technology is in very early stages. "If we truly want to have a sustainable robot that goes outside in nature,a materials scientist Florian Hartmann says,"we also need to think of electronics or power supplies,or even batteries,that are biodegradable." 32.What do we know about early soft robots? A.They are made of natural materials. B.They are too delicate for heavy use. 试卷第7页，共12页 C.They will produce e-waste pollution. D.They come from mechanical engineering. 33.Why did Wei and Zhang bury the controller and robotic arm? A.To check their durability. B.To monitor their effect on soil. C.To see if they can work in soil. D.To test if they can break down. 34.Which of the following best describes the robots in the new study? A.Costly B.Eco-friendly. C.Safe to use. D.Easy to operate. 35.What does Hartmann mainly talk about in the last paragraph? A.The necessity for sustainable robots B.The potential applications of soft robots. C.The possibility to improve power supplies. D.The future research suggestions for soft robots. 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。 Appreciating poetry begins with welcoming its unique rhythm and language.Start by reading the poem aloud,allowing its rhythm to reach you emotionally.Poetry is meant to be heard and reciting it can reveal hidden patterns or emotions that silent reading might miss.36 Does the poem speed up or slow down?These shifts often mirror its themes. Notice the structure.Poems aren't just words on a page.Their form,including rhyme schemes,stanza breaks, and line lengths,contributes to meaning.A tightly structured poem might evoke (order,while broken lines could reflect chaos.Don't overlook punctuation (or capitalization.37 Engage yourself in imagery and metaphor.Poets paint pictures with words,so visualize the scenes they describe.Ask:What senses are engaged?A poem about rain might feel cold and damp.Figurative language like similes and metaphors invites you to explore deeper connections between seemingly unrelated ideas. Consider the poet's perspective.Who is speaking?Is it the poet's voice,a character,or an abstract being? Understanding the"speaker"can clarify the poem's intention.38 Historical events,personal experiences, 试卷第8页，共12页 or cultural symbols may influence its meaning 39 _Poetry grows on emotion,and there's no"correct"interpretation.Your response-whether joy, sorrow,or curiosity -is acceptable.Revisit the poem:meanings often change with each reading.Take down questions it raises,and research unfamiliar references if they interest you. In short,appreciating poetry is an adventure of discovery.Slow down,listen,and trust your feelings.40 Rather,it's about appreciating the interplay of sound,image,and idea that makes poetry timeless A.Let yourself feel. B.Context matters as well. C.Don't be afraid of making mistakes. D.These shape how you stop and interpret. E.Pay attention to how words flow together. F.The poem's background determines the style. G.This is not like unlocking a"secret password. 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节完形填空（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， 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 I once worked in the remote but beautiful countryside.All farm work can,in my experience,41a person to develop a Spartan(斯巴达式的)spirit.

I'm here today to tell you about our newest phone APP SUD,which means shut up and drive.And I'm looking for an investment of 80,000 pounds in return for a 20%share in our company.SUD is an APP aimed at preventing dangerous driving caused by mobile phone use.This is a huge problem.Over the past five years,we've had 579 serious traffic accidents linked to phone use,with 133 of them causing the death of one or more people. 试卷第5页，共25页 And despite punishments having doubled in 2017 meaning offenders now lose six points on their license and receive a 200 pound fine,a recent survey showed that 11 million British people still admit to using their mobiles while driving.The cause is screen addiction.We know we shouldn't,but we simply can't stop.This is where SUD comes in,the aPP uses the phone's GPS technology to discover how quickly the device is moving.Ifyou drive above 10 miles per hour,the APP begins driving mode,which prevents any Internet and social media functions being used.Incoming calls are blocked and the caller is automatically informed that the user is unavailable. Map functions are available VIA voice control only. 第二部分阅读理解（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 Exploring Chicago:Unique Tours Whether you seek adventure,history,food,or family fun,there's a perfect tour:Here are four top options highlighting Chicago's best.

However,as the manager explained the steps,I couldn't help but notice the teller's lack of engagement. Instead of absorbing the guidance,he occupied himself with something else.What struck me most was the manager's passive response to this behavior.Rather than encouraging the teller to focus on his instruction attentively,he simply completed the task himself and returned to his office. On my way home,reflecting on the situation,I realized that the manager failed to use a preventive method. This might lead to the teller's asking for help again in the future,causing the manager to repeatedly leave his desk to manage the same issues.This would definitely interrupt the manager's routine work and waste his precious time, which could otherwise be better spent on his core duties.Obviously,if the root cause of the problem is not solved, 试卷第8页，共25页 such situation will happen more than once again,and it will potentially affect customer satisfaction. This experience reveals a fundamental truth:It is a must to enable people to handle tasks independent of external assistance.We shouldn't emphasize the significance of having a clear vision too much.It involves predicting future needs and making the right moves to solve them.Thus,we should begin with the end in mind, planning for long-term success.After all,sustainable success begins not with fixing today's issues,but with preventing tomorrow's. 24.Why did the teller turn to the manager for help? A.He was busy with other affairs. B.The procedure was too complex. C.He had uncertainty as a new employee. D.The matter was not in the charge of him. 25.What kind of help did the manager offer to the teller? A.Absolute replacement. B.Passive response. C.Professional guidance. D.Sincere encouragement. 26.What key strategy does the author recommend to solve such issues? A.Making a further plan about regulation. B.Emphasizing the importance of prevention. C.Having a clear vision of personal development. D.Cultivating independence through empowerment. 27.Which of the following proverbs best matches the main idea of the text? A.Many hands make light work. B.Nothing is difficult to the man who will try. C.Hope for the best and prepare for the worst. D.Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime. 【答案】24.C 25.A26.D 27.D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者在银行目睹经理未有效引导新出纳员，强调培养员工独立处 理任务能力及预防问题的重要性。 24.细节理解题.根据第一段“The teller,apparently new to role,.was unsure about the steps.He called his manager for assistance..(这位出纳员显然是新来的，对步骤不太确定。他打电话给经理寻求帮助)'可知，出纳员向经 试卷第9页，共25页 理求助，这是因为作为新员工，出纳员对工作不确定。故选C项。 25.细节理解题。根据第一段“The manager patiently explained everything to me,and I really appreciated what he did.(经理耐心地向我解释了一切，我真的很感激他所做的一切)”以及第二段However,as the manager explained the steps,I couldn't help but notice the teller's lack of engagement.Instead of absorbing the guidance,he occupied himself with something else.What struck me most was the manager's passive response to this behavior. Rather than encouraging the teller to focus on his instruction attentively,he simply completed the task himself and returned to his office.(然而，当经理解释这些步骤时，我忍不住注意到出纳员没有参与。他没有吸收指导， 而是忙于其他事情。最让我印象深刻的是经理对这种行为的被动反应。他没有鼓励出纳员专心听讲，而是 自己完成了任务，回到了办公室)”可知，经理帮助出纳员完成了出纳员本该做的工作，并且没有出纳员专心 听讲，由此可知，经理提供的是绝对替代型的帮助。故选A项。 26.细节理解题。根据最后一段This experience reveals a fundamental truth:It is a must to enable people to handle tasks independent of external assistance.(这段经历揭示了一个基本真理：必须让人们能够独立处理任务， 而不依赖外部帮助)”可知，作者推荐解决此类问题的关键策略是通过授权培养独立性。故选D项。 27.主台大意题。文章主要讲述了作者在银行办理业务时，遇到一位新出纳员对业务不熟悉，向经理求助， 但经理只是自己完成了任务，没有真正帮助出纳员学会如何处理，作者由此意识到，应该让人们学会独立 处理任务，而不是总是依赖外部帮助。谚语“授人以鱼不如授人以渔”与文章的意思相符，即教给人技能比直 接给予帮助更有价值。故选D项。 C People are taking their health into their own hands it seems,as nearly half of UK adults(48%)have turned to online health information to self-diagnose in the past year,with 18%of 16-24-year-olds doing so at least four times, according to an AXA survey of 4,000 people.The trend reflects growing reliance on digital resources in social media for health advice. While common issues like hay fever (27%),sunburn (19%),and colds (34%)dominate self-diagnoses,32% report self-diagnosing their mental health conditions.Cases of anxiety and ADHD (are increasingly self-identified through TikTok symptom checklists,though experts warn such methods lack clinical preciseness. One 24-year-old participant shared:"I diagnosed myself with depression after online tests,but my doctor later owed it to vitamin D deficiency." So,why are people turning to Dr Google for help?Over a third(36%)complained about the difficulties securing timely appointments,while 22%avoided the NHS due to fears of long waits.With NHS waiting lists 试卷第10页，共25页听力考试正式开始。Have you been to china?
