Just before the Spring Festival of 2025, residents of Zhaoquan Village in Tianjin received rice, flour and other daily necessities as gifts. These gifts came from the village’s striving collective economy under the leadership of the young village Party branch headed by 30-year-old Secretary Zhao Rui. After graduating from Tianjin Medical University in 2017, Zhao returned to her hometown to join the rural revitalization drive. “This land is my roots. I want to help it have a brighter future,” she stated.
In May 2024, with local government support, Zhao and her team launched Douyin and Kuaishou accounts, aiming to explore new paths for village development through these platforms. They created a video series “100 Simple Acts for the Villagers,” featuring help for left-behind elderly such as teaching them to use smartphones. These videos not only enriched the elderly’s lives but also boosted the village’s popularity, drawing investment to this area.
The social media drive brought tangible benefits to the village. Soon after the accounts were established, a forest farm was built, offering family-friendly outdoor activities and creating numerous local jobs. More importantly, the platforms became an effective channel for selling the village’s farm products. With a steady stream of orders coming in, the village’s agricultural product sales business burgeoned, bringing more income to local households. Last September, Zhao’s videos showing local grapes’ growth and their sweet taste drew wholesalers’ attention, helping sell 35,000 kilograms successfully.
Zhao also provided assistance to nearby villages in need. When a young woman from a neighboring village sought help with unsold apricots (杏). Zhao’s team responded quickly, making and releasing a promotion video the same day. This helped the family sell all their extra apricots.
Reflecting on her work, Zhao noted, “Social media is a strong tool for rural development. Though I’m just an ordinary person, I want to do my best to help my hometown.”
4. Why did Zhao Rui return to her hometown after graduation?
A. To take part in rural renewal efforts. B. To pursue a bright future for herself.
C. To get support from local government. D. To take charge of the village Party branch.
5. What can we learn about the video series “100 Simple Acts for the Villagers”?
A. It was launched by local government. B. It focused on promoting new products.
C. It helped bring in funds for the village. D. It aimed at giving lessons to the elderly.
6. What does the underlined word “burgeoned” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Survived luckily. B. Recovered quickly.
C. Reduced slightly. D. Developed rapidly.
7. Which of the following words best describe Zhao Rui according to the passage?
A. Motivated and cautious. B. Ambitious but stubborn.
C. Innovative and responsible. D. Caring but inexperienced.
C
When Amanda Rulten picked up a cheap coloring book and some colored pens, she didn’t expect the activity to stick. It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. “My mental health has completely collapsed,” said Rulten. “I can’t do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn’t demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It’s about taking five minutes away from everything.” Gradually, coloring turned into her daily routine.
Coloring books for adults aren’t a new phenomenon. Early “paint books” were marketed to grown-ups in the late 18th century, often framed as educational or moral tools. But adult coloring really caught on around 2015, when Johanna Basford’s intricate (错综复杂的) drawings in her book “Secret Garden” became sensations. Recently, a “cozy coloring” aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills. Of Amazon’s best-sellers in October 2025, nearly half of the top adult coloring books emphasized the same “Bold & Easy” style — a pull toward accessibility over intricacy, intended to comfort tired minds.
For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring’s appeal runs deeper than relaxation. “I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers. Our bodies and minds are tens of thousands of years old. We worked with our hands; we used all our senses. Coloring takes us back there,” she explained. As for why it feels rewarding, “By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us,” she explained. “In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape.”
Kaimal said that this kind of activity “let people play again,” giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn’t matter. “We are allowed to play as adults, however silly,” Kaimal added.
8. What drove Rulten to buy a coloring book?
A. The desire to develop a new hobby.
B. The wish to have fun in the hospital.
C. The attempt to cure her mental disease.
D. The need to relax mind during treatment.
9. Which of the following belongs to the “Bold & Easy” style?
A. Plain line drawings with broad outlines.
B. Intricate patterns requiring careful filling.
C. Accessible pictures with moral messages.
D. Large detailed shapes for creative expression.
10. What is the main purpose of paragraph 3?
A. To explain healing mechanisms of coloring.
B. To illustrate the rewarding effects of coloring.
C. To compare ancient and modern ways of relaxation.
D. To build connection between physical health and coloring.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Relaxing Tool for Patients.
B A Silly but Funny coloring Book.
C. The Rise of“Bold & Easy” coloring.
D. The Playful Journey of Mental healing.
D
One person’s trash is another person’s… jet fuel? Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then “upgrading” that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications.
The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based (生物质) SAF? Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived (提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel.
In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced “pressure cooker” to fast-forward nature’s timeline.
With plenty of raw oil extracted, the researchers then set out to transform it into jet fuel. The first step involved removing salt, ash, moisture, and other impurities. After that, they used a cleaning process to get rid of other undesirable elements such as nitrogen, and oxygen. What remained were the specific hydrocarbons (烃) required to make jet fuel.
The team took their food-waste derived jet fuels and tested it against current fuel standards. It passed the screening test and met industry requirements without needing to introduce any special additives, meaning the fuel would theoretically power a commercial airplane.
The findings are a first step to show plane fuel derived from food waste is at least possible. Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether. “Our research helps solve the science and engineering problems, and then the industry needs to step in,” University of Illinois professor and corresponding author Yuanhui Zhang said.
12. What did the researchers at the University of Illinois hope to achieve?
A. Developing a new way to handle food waste.
B. Changing excess food waste into usable jet fuel.
C. Creating jet fuel directly from untreated food waste.
D. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste treatment.
13. Why does the author mention the EPA’s estimates in Paragraph 2?
A. To support developing low-emission jet fuel.
B. To stress air pollution from commercial aircraft.
C. To compare emissions of conventional jet fuel and SAF.
D. To prove transportation is the top US greenhouse gas emitter.
14. What can be inferred about the HTL process?
A. It removes impurities by heating.
B. It breaks down organic matter naturally.
C. It creates the hydrocarbons jet fuel needs.
D. It resembles a faster natural oil-creation process.
15. What is the author’s attitude to the commercial use of the new fuel?
A. Optimistic. B. Cautious.
C. Dismissive. D. Uncertain.

Several years ago, I went through a bad stretch — beaten down by loneliness and constant house construction. To make matters worse, my disease became severe, leading to a ____21____ week in hospital.

I had always enjoyed photography but had ____26____ this habit for a long time in life’s mess. I decided to pick it up, ____27____ one special moment daily. By the end of the year, I’d have 365 good memories recorded. That was the ____28____. As photos accumulated, I had proof of what I truly ____29____.

It worked. I made a photo book. It ____35____ me of gratitude and that life moves at its own pace. The book is now a family tradition. The photos didn’t fix everything, but they gave me light in the dark. And, one photo at a time, that made all the difference.

Golf: China’s ancient game?
A mural painting of Yuan dynasty-era chuiwan(捶丸) ____36____(preserve) on the wall of a Water God Temple in Hungtung county, Shanxi province at present. The painting depicts a Mongolian official, some Han officials and assistants. The sticks and devices are fairly identical to ____37____ of modern golf.
It is generally recognized that the Scots may well have made ____38____ a game of 18 holes. But the jury’s still out on who first came up with the idea of an open-air game ____39____ players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target. The most fascinating—and in many ways convincing—evidence of an early version of golf ____40____(document) in history comes from China.
A game called chuiwan—chui meaning to hit and wan meaning ball—became popular in the Song dynasty. Players used ten clubs to hit wooden balls towards ____41____(bright) coloured flags. There was even an early equivalent of the R&A Rules of Golf: Classic of the Ball, published during the Yuan dynasty. It lays out the rules, and places great emphasis ____42____ sportsmanship and correct behaviour—echoes of modern golf, where etiquette(礼仪) is such an important element of the game. There’s also a ____43____(refer) in an ancient book to an official of the Southern Tang dynasty ____44____(tell) his daughter to“dig holes in the ground” so he could hit a ball into them using a special stick.
The debate over who got there first will go on, ____45____ at least one thing is certain. Chuiwan, played by Chinese emperors 1,000 years ago, certainly qualifies as a royal and ancient game.

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。
My next-door neighbor, Pat, hadn’t said a friendly word since the day we moved in. Pat lived alone and worked from home, with visits from his teenage son and daughter. I could understand his need for privacy and my family had tried our best not to bother him. However, things got worse that summer morning.
At that time, homeowners in our neighbourhood were putting up fences to contain their pets and kids. We offered Pat the opportunity to share the cost of a fence between our yards. He first agreed, but later became unwilling. Finally, we just had the fence put up ourselves.
On that particular morning, I had been gardening out front when Pat threw a large doggy waste from his lawn onto ours. Frustrated, I walked right over and tried to explain, “Our dog is a Chihuahua! There is no way he did that.”
But Pat wouldn’t listen and claimed that our dog did it. “Keep your dog and your kids off my yard, and you get off my yard too,” he shouted.
My frustration turned to anger. I had never been treated with such disrespect by someone, especially a neighbor. I stormed in my front door and called my husband, Kevin, at work. His advice: Stay away from Pat.
And so I did. Pat returned the favor. We tried to avoid any kind of unexpected run-in with each other. Weeks passed in such awkwardness until one morning, when I saw Pat tending vegetables in his yard. Suddenly, I felt a twinge of guilt. I was no more a model neighbor than Pat was! I’d been hurt by his words; maybe he’d been hurt by mine. I felt ready to do something. But how should I take a neighborly step forward? I turned to Kevin for advice, who assured me that an opportunity would present itself if my heart was truly willing.
Then one day, I noticed something moving in the backyard vegetable garden. It was an orange kitten (小猫). I had raised kittens for years and I loved doing it. Nothing melted my heart like a sweet, innocent kitten.
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。
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door.

The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since.

Just before the Spring Festival of 2025, residents of Zhaoquan Village in Tianjin received rice, flour and other daily necessities as gifts. These gifts came from the village’s striving collective economy under the leadership of the young village Party branch headed by 30-year-old Secretary Zhao Rui. After graduating from Tianjin Medical University in 2017, Zhao returned to her hometown to join the rural revitalization drive. “This land is my roots. I want to help it have a brighter future,” she stated.
In May 2024, with local government support, Zhao and her team launched Douyin and Kuaishou accounts, aiming to explore new paths for village development through these platforms. They created a video series “100 Simple Acts for the Villagers,” featuring help for left-behind elderly such as teaching them to use smartphones. These videos not only enriched the elderly’s lives but also boosted the village’s popularity, drawing investment to this area.
The social media drive brought tangible benefits to the village. Soon after the accounts were established, a forest farm was built, offering family-friendly outdoor activities and creating numerous local jobs. More importantly, the platforms became an effective channel for selling the village’s farm products. With a steady stream of orders coming in, the village’s agricultural product sales business burgeoned, bringing more income to local households. Last September, Zhao’s videos showing local grapes’ growth and their sweet taste drew wholesalers’ attention, helping sell 35,000 kilograms successfully.
Zhao also provided assistance to nearby villages in need. When a young woman from a neighboring village sought help with unsold apricots (杏). Zhao’s team responded quickly, making and releasing a promotion video the same day. This helped the family sell all their extra apricots.
Reflecting on her work, Zhao noted, “Social media is a strong tool for rural development. Though I’m just an ordinary person, I want to do my best to help my hometown.”

When Amanda Rulten picked up a cheap coloring book and some colored pens, she didn’t expect the activity to stick. It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. “My mental health has completely collapsed,” said Rulten. “I can’t do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn’t demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It’s about taking five minutes away from everything.” Gradually, coloring turned into her daily routine.
Coloring books for adults aren’t a new phenomenon. Early “paint books” were marketed to grown-ups in the late 18th century, often framed as educational or moral tools. But adult coloring really caught on around 2015, when Johanna Basford’s intricate (错综复杂的) drawings in her book “Secret Garden” became sensations. Recently, a “cozy coloring” aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills. Of Amazon’s best-sellers in October 2025, nearly half of the top adult coloring books emphasized the same “Bold & Easy” style — a pull toward accessibility over intricacy, intended to comfort tired minds.
For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring’s appeal runs deeper than relaxation. “I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers. Our bodies and minds are tens of thousands of years old. We worked with our hands; we used all our senses. Coloring takes us back there,” she explained. As for why it feels rewarding, “By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us,” she explained. “In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape.”
Kaimal said that this kind of activity “let people play again,” giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn’t matter. “We are allowed to play as adults, however silly,” Kaimal added.
8. What drove Rulten to buy a coloring book?
A. The desire to develop a new hobby.
B. The wish to have fun in the hospital.
C. The attempt to cure her mental disease.
D. The need to relax mind during treatment.
9. Which of the following belongs to the “Bold & Easy” style?
A. Plain line drawings with broad outlines.
B. Intricate patterns requiring careful filling.
C. Accessible pictures with moral messages.
D. Large detailed shapes for creative expression.
10. What is the main purpose of paragraph 3?
A. To explain healing mechanisms of coloring.
B. To illustrate the rewarding effects of coloring.
C. To compare ancient and modern ways of relaxation.
D. To build connection between physical health and coloring.
11. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. A Relaxing Tool for Patients.
B. A Silly but Funny coloring Book.
C. The Rise of“Bold & Easy” coloring.
D. The Playful Journey of Mental healing.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过Amanda Rulten的个人经历,介绍了成人涂色书的流行趋势、“Bold & Easy”风格的特点,并从心理学和人类学角度解释了涂色活动对现代人心理健康的积极作用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“It came when she was in the middle of a health crisis. Eighteen months ago, she had an infection and was rushed into emergency surgery, followed by numerous hospital stays. ‘My mental health has completely collapsed,’ said Rulten. ‘I can’t do the hobbies I once enjoyed, so having time to sit and be present in something that isn’t demanding or causing me harm has been really helpful. It’s about taking five minutes away from everything.’(这发生在她遭遇健康危机的时候。18个月前,她因感染被紧急送往手术室,之后又多次住院。‘我的心理健康彻底崩溃了,’Rulten说,‘我无法再从事曾经喜欢的爱好,所以能有时间坐下来投入到一件不费力、不会伤害我的事情中,这对我帮助很大。这是一种从所有事情中抽离五分钟的方式。’)”可知,Rulten购买涂色书是为了在治疗期间放松身心。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Recently, a ‘cozy coloring’ aesthetic (美学的) style has dominated adult coloring charts — simple line art with large shapes meant for quick, relaxing fills.(最近,一种‘舒适涂色’的美学风格主导了成人涂色书榜单——带有大色块的简单线条画,旨在快速、轻松地填充。)”可知,“Bold & Easy”风格指的是带有大轮廓的简单线条画。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“For Girija Kaimal, professor of the Creative Arts Therapies at Drexel University in Philadelphia, coloring’s appeal runs deeper than relaxation. ‘I think of us as 21st century hunter-gatherers.

As for why it feels rewarding, ‘By the end of it, you have something colorful, which signals health to us,’ she explained. ‘In nature, when you see color, it usually signifies abundance, a fertile landscape.’(对于费城德雷塞尔大学创意艺术疗法教授Girija Kaimal来说,涂色的吸引力远不止放松。‘我认为我们是21世纪的狩猎采集者。我们的身体和大脑有几万年的历史。我们用双手劳作,调动所有感官。涂色把我们带回了那个时代,’她解释道。至于为什么会感觉有意义,‘完成之后,你会得到一件色彩斑斓的作品,这对我们来说是健康的信号,’她解释道,‘在自然界中,当你看到色彩时,它通常象征着丰饶、一片肥沃的土地。’)”可知,第三段主要解释了涂色活动的疗愈机制。故选A。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Kaimal said that this kind of activity ‘let people play again,’ giving them a safe way to create without fear of failure. And skill doesn’t matter. ‘We are allowed to play as adults, however silly,’ Kaimal added.(Kaimal说,这种活动‘让人们再次玩耍’,为他们提供了一种安全的创作方式,无需担心失败。而且技能并不重要。‘作为成年人,我们被允许玩耍,不管这看起来多么傻气,’Kaimal补充道。)”以及文章中Amanda Rulten通过涂色疗愈心理健康的经历可知,文章核心是涂色作为一种“玩耍”方式,对现代人心理健康的疗愈作用。因此,“The Playful Journey of Mental healing(心灵疗愈的趣味之旅)”最适合作为文章标题。故选D。

One person’s trash is another person’s… jet fuel? Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then “upgrading” that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications.
The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based (生物质) SAF? Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived (提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel.
In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced “pressure cooker” to fast-forward nature’s timeline.
With plenty of raw oil extracted, the researchers then set out to transform it into jet fuel. The first step involved removing salt, ash, moisture, and other impurities. After that, they used a cleaning process to get rid of other undesirable elements such as nitrogen, and oxygen. What remained were the specific hydrocarbons (烃) required to make jet fuel.
The team took their food-waste derived jet fuels and tested it against current fuel standards. It passed the screening test and met industry requirements without needing to introduce any special additives, meaning the fuel would theoretically power a commercial airplane.
The findings are a first step to show plane fuel derived from food waste is at least possible. Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether. “Our research helps solve the science and engineering problems, and then the industry needs to step in,” University of Illinois professor and corresponding author Yuanhui Zhang said.
12. What did the researchers at the University of Illinois hope to achieve?
A. Developing a new way to handle food waste.
B. Changing excess food waste into usable jet fuel.
C. Creating jet fuel directly from untreated food waste.
D. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions from waste treatment.
13. Why does the author mention the EPA’s estimates in Paragraph 2?
A. To support developing low-emission jet fuel.
B. To stress air pollution from commercial aircraft.
C. To compare emissions of conventional jet fuel and SAF.
D. To prove transportation is the top US greenhouse gas emitter.
14. What can be inferred about the HTL process?
A. It removes impurities by heating.
B. It breaks down organic matter naturally.
C. It creates the hydrocarbons jet fuel needs.
D. It resembles a faster natural oil-creation process.
15. What is the author’s attitude to the commercial use of the new fuel?
A. Optimistic. B. Cautious.
C. Dismissive. D. Uncertain.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. D 15. B

【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Strange as it might sound, researchers at the University of Illinois outlined a strategy for taking excess food waste, changing it into bio-fuel, and then “upgrading” that fuel into jet fuel that can be put to direct use this week in Nature Communications.(尽管听起来或许有些不可思议,但伊利诺伊大学的研究人员本周在《自然・通讯》期刊上公布了一项研究策略——将多余的餐厨垃圾转化为生物燃料,再将这种燃料进一步提纯升级为可直接投入使用的航空燃油。)”可知,研究者的研究目标是把多余的餐厨垃圾转化为可直接使用的航空燃油。故选B项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The US Environmental Protection Agency estimates that transportation accounted for roughly 29% of all greenhouse gas emissions in America in 2022 alone. Of that, about 7% came from commercial aircraft. But what about so-called biomass-based(生物质) SAF? Some estimates suggest that SAF, largely referring to fuels derived(提取) from organic materials, could reduce emissions from flying by up to 80%, compared to conventional jet fuel.(美国环境保护署估算,2022年仅交通领域的温室气体排放量,就约占美国温室气体总排放量的29%,其中约7%来自商用飞机。那所谓的生物质可持续航空燃油又是什么情况呢?有估算显示,这类主要以有机物质为原料提取制成的燃油,相比传统航空燃油,能将航空飞行的碳排放降低多达80%。)”可知,作者先说明航空飞行的温室气体排放现状,再引出SAF的减排优势,提及环保署的数据是为了佐证研发低排放航空燃油的必要性,从而支撑研发该燃油的观点。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In this new experiment, the team used a chemical process called HTL, which essentially copies the way the Earth naturally creates raw oil from organic matter over millions of years, except without all the waiting. HTL kind of acts like an advanced “pressure cooker” to fast-forward nature’s timeline.(在这项新实验中,该研究团队采用了一种名为HTL的化学工艺,这种工艺本质上模仿了地球数百万年来由有机物自然生成原油的过程,只是省去了漫长的等待时间。HTL工艺就像一个先进的“高压反应釜”,将自然的演化进程大幅加快。)”可知,HTL工艺模仿了地球自然生成原油的方式,且大幅缩短了时间,也就是类似一种加速版的自然造油过程。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,作者先介绍了该技术的研发成果——餐厨垃圾可转化为符合行业标准的航空燃油,这是积极的一面;随后在第六段指出“Actually making enough of it to supply an entire passenger jet, however, is another beast altogether.(然而,要生产出足够供应一整架客机的燃油,则是另一回事了)”,并引用研究者的话说明技术难题解决后,还需要行业的参与才能实现商业化。作者既肯定了技术的可行性,又客观指出其商业化面临的巨大挑战,态度是谨慎的。故选B项。

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分,满分15分)

Golf: China’s ancient game?
A mural painting of Yuan dynasty-era chuiwan(捶丸) ____36____(preserve) on the wall of a Water God Temple in Hungtung county, Shanxi province at present. The painting depicts a Mongolian official, some Han officials and assistants. The sticks and devices are fairly identical to ____37____ of modern golf.
It is generally recognized that the Scots may well have made ____38____ a game of 18 holes. But the jury’s still out on who first came up with the idea of an open-air game ____39____ players use a stick to hit a ball towards a target. The most fascinating—and in many ways convincing—evidence of an early version of golf ____40____(document) in history comes from China.
A game called chuiwan—chui meaning to hit and wan meaning ball—became popular in the Song dynasty. Players used ten clubs to hit wooden balls towards ____41____(bright) coloured flags. There was even an early equivalent of the R&A Rules of Golf: Classic of the Ball, published during the Yuan dynasty. It lays out the rules, and places great emphasis ____42____ sportsmanship and correct behaviour—echoes of modern golf, where etiquette(礼仪) is such an important element of the game. There’s also a ____43____(refer) in an ancient book to an official of the Southern Tang dynasty ____44____(tell) his daughter to“dig holes in the ground” so he could hit a ball into them using a special stick.
The debate over who got there first will go on, ____45____ at least one thing is certain. Chuiwan, played by Chinese emperors 1,000 years ago, certainly qualifies as a royal and ancient game.
【答案】36. is preserved##is being preserved
37. those 38. it
39. where 40. documented
41. brightly
42. on##upon
43. reference
44. telling
45. but
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文通过历史文物与文献,探讨中国元代“捶丸”与现代高尔夫的相似性,挑战高尔夫的传统起源说,展现中国古代体育的悠久传承。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:目前,一幅元代捶丸壁画保存在山西洪洞县水神庙的墙上。主语mural painting与谓语动词preserve之间为被动关系;时间状语at present表示现在时间,强调目前存在的状态或正在进行的动作。因此填is preserved表示当前被保存的状态或is being preserved强调目前正在被保存。因此填is preserved/is being preserved。
【37题详解】
考查代词。句意:球杆和设备与现代高尔夫的球杆和设备非常相似。此处需要替代前文提到的复数名词sticks and devices,用于比较结构中,指代同类异物。因此填those。
【38题详解】
考查代词用法。句意:人们普遍认为苏格兰人使高尔夫成为18洞运动。此处需要一个代词代指前文提到的golf这一球类运动,作made的宾语,因此填it。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句关系词。句意:但关于谁最先发明了这种玩家用球杆将球击向目标的户外游戏,目前仍无定论。先行词为an open-air game,从句主干完整,先行词在从句中作地点状语,因此填where。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:历史上有关高尔夫早期形态的最有趣、且在诸多方面最具说服力的文字记载,均出自中国。evidence与document是被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语,表示“被记录的证据”,因此填documented。
【41题详解】
考查副词。句意:玩家用十支球杆将木球击向颜色鲜艳的旗帜。此处修饰形容词coloured,需用副词形式。形容词bright变为副词brightly。因此填brightly。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:它制定规则并特别强调体育精神与正确行为。此处是固定搭配lay emphasis on/upon,意为“重视,强调”,因此填介词on/upon。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:一本古籍中也提及,南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿“在地上挖几个洞”,以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。不定冠词a后需要接可数名词单数,将动词refer变为名词形式,因此填reference。
【44题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:一本古籍中也提及,南唐的一位官员吩咐女儿“在地上挖几个洞”,以便他能用一根特制的球杆将球击入其中。句子谓语结构是there is,且空处所在的部分无连词,因此需要用非谓语,official和tell是主动关系,用现在分词作后置定语,修饰an official,因此填telling。
【45题详解】
考查连词。句意:关于谁先发明的争论将持续,但至少有一点是确定的。前后两个分句存在转折关系,前句说明争论仍在继续,后句指出有一件事可以确定,因此填but。

Dear editor,
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear editor,
To celebrate the 31st World Book Day, I’m writing to propose some reading activities for our school library.
It would be advisable to host themed reading salons centered on literary classics every week. With guided text analysis and group discussions, students can foster critical thinking and deeper literary appreciation. Besides, another recommendation is to launch a book drift campaign via a dedicated corner, where students can leave and pick up books freely. This not only maximizes the use of idle books on campus but also creates a relaxed interactive reading atmosphere, making reading more appealing to students.
I am convinced that these activities will inject vitality into our campus reading culture. Hope my plan can be taken into account.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

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。
My next-door neighbor, Pat, hadn’t said a friendly word since the day we moved in. Pat lived alone and worked from home, with visits from his teenage son and daughter. I could understand his need for privacy and my family had tried our best not to bother him. However, things got worse that summer morning.
At that time, homeowners in our neighbourhood were putting up fences to contain their pets and kids. We offered Pat the opportunity to share the cost of a fence between our yards. He first agreed, but later became unwilling. Finally, we just had the fence put up ourselves.
On that particular morning, I had been gardening out front when Pat threw a large doggy waste from his lawn onto ours. Frustrated, I walked right over and tried to explain, “Our dog is a Chihuahua! There is no way he did that.”
But Pat wouldn’t listen and claimed that our dog did it. “Keep your dog and your kids off my yard, and you get off my yard too,” he shouted.
My frustration turned to anger. I had never been treated with such disrespect by someone, especially a neighbor. I stormed in my front door and called my husband, Kevin, at work. His advice: Stay away from Pat.
And so I did. Pat returned the favor. We tried to avoid any kind of unexpected run-in with each other. Weeks passed in such awkwardness until one morning, when I saw Pat tending vegetables in his yard. Suddenly, I felt a twinge of guilt. I was no more a model neighbor than Pat was! I’d been hurt by his words; maybe he’d been hurt by mine. I felt ready to do something. But how should I take a neighborly step forward? I turned to Kevin for advice, who assured me that an opportunity would present itself if my heart was truly willing.
Then one day, I noticed something moving in the backyard vegetable garden. It was an orange kitten (小猫). I had raised kittens for years and I loved doing it. Nothing melted my heart like a sweet, innocent kitten.

Just then, a knock sounded at the front door.

_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1
Just then, a knock sounded at the front door. I opened it to find Pat. His face was flushed, and he shuffled his feet. “The kitten in your garden,” he said, “it’s my daughter’s. She’s worried about it.” I nodded and led him to the backyard. The kitten purred happily as Pat picked it up. Seizing the moment, I said, “Pat, I think we should talk. I’m sorry for the things I said.” Pat looked at me, a bit taken aback, then nodded. “Me too,” he mumbled.
Paragraph 2
The kitten became a frequent visitor ever since. It would scurry between our yards, bringing us closer. One sunny day, Pat waved me over. “Look at these tomatoes,” he said, smiling. We chatted about gardening, and he offered me some freshly picked ones. As we stood there, laughing and sharing, I knew the kitten had mended the rift between us. Our once-tense relationship had blossomed into a warm friendship.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述作者搬来后与邻居Pat关系不睦,经历围栏和狗粪便冲突后,作者想改善关系时出现一只小猫,为故事发展带来转机。
