On a sunny Tuesday, David, a 58-year-old history teacher, was grading papers when his left hand went numb. The world was turned upside down. Hours later, from a hospital bed, he discovered a terrifying silence in his mind. He could understand everything said to him, but when he tried to reply, only nonsense sounds came out. He was diagnosed with aphasia, a language disorder caused by a stroke (中风).
Before the stroke, David’s life was built around words. He loved telling stories, debating with students, and reading novels aloud to his children. Now, he felt locked inside his own head, a prisoner of silence. Standard speech therapy felt slow and frustrating. He knew the words were in there somewhere, as if a tornado had swept through the library.
His breakthrough came not from a doctor, but from a hobby. Before his illness, David enjoyed solving crossword puzzles. One afternoon, his daughter left a simple crossword on the kitchen table. Out of habit, he picked up a pencil. To his amazement, he could slowly fill in some blanks. The clues activated a different path in his brain.
He became a “word detective.” His notebooks were filled with crossword puzzles, word searches, and lists of synonyms. He used a large whiteboard at home to map out ideas like a detective solving a case. Instead of trying to speak a full sentence, he would write key nouns and verbs on the board, point to them, and piece his thoughts together. This “detective board,” as he called it, became his new voice.
David’s confidence grew. He started a blog, typing out his recovery journey with the help of a spelling-check app. He returned to visit his school, using his whiteboard to “talk” to his former students. “I am not broken,” he wrote during one visit. “I am just learning a new way to think.”
His recovery is ongoing. Some days are good; some words still hide. But David no longer feels lost. He has learned that communication is more than perfect speech — it’s the determination to connect.
4. What can be inferred about David before aphasia?
A. He felt cut off sometimes. B. He lived quite an active life.
C. He cared about his health. D. He worked as a therapist.
5. What became a turning point for David?
A. A special notebook. B. A speech therapy.
C. A doctor’s instruction. D. A crossword puzzle.
6. What role did David’s whiteboard play in his recovery?
A. A tool for tracking his progress. B. A schedule for his daily recovery.
C. A means of personal expression. D. A source of motivational support.
7. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Speech Therapy Experiment: Challenges in Recovery
B. Aphasia Explained: Mystery Behind Brain’s Language
C. Voice Regained: One Man’s Fight Against Aphasia
D. Crossword Puzzles: Detecting silence in Human minds
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了58岁历史老师David中风失语后,因爱好填字游戏找到康复突破口,借白板、写博客等方式重新表达,虽康复未竟,但他领悟到沟通的核心是联结的决心。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Before the stroke, David’s life was built around words. He loved telling stories, debating with students, and reading novels aloud to his children.(在中风之前,大卫的生活就是围绕着文字展开的。他喜欢讲故事,喜欢与学生们辩论,还喜欢对着孩子们大声朗读小说)”可推知,在患上失语症之前,大卫曾经过着相当活跃的生活。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“One afternoon, his daughter left a simple crossword on the kitchen table. Out of habit, he picked up a pencil. To his amazement, he could slowly fill in some blanks. The clues activated a different path in his brain.(一天下午,他的女儿在厨房的桌子上留下了一道简单的填字游戏题。出于习惯,他拿起一支铅笔。令他惊讶的是,他竟然能够慢慢地填上一些空格。这些线索激活了他大脑中的另一条思维路径)”可知,对大卫来说,一个重要的转折点是一道填字游戏。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“David’s confidence grew. He started a blog, typing out his recovery journey with the help of a spelling-check app. He returned to visit his school, using his whiteboard to “talk” to his former students. “I am not broken,” he wrote during one visit. “I am just learning a new way to think.”(大卫的自信心逐渐增强。他开设了一个博客,借助拼写检查应用程序记录了自己的康复历程。他重返母校,用白板与昔日的学生交流。“我并没有被摧毁,”他在一次访问中写道,“我只是在学习一种新的思考方式。”)”可知,大卫的白板在他康复的过程中成为了他的一种个人表达方式。故选C。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“On a sunny Tuesday, David, a 58-year-old history teacher, was grading papers when his left hand went numb.(在一个阳光明媚的周二,58岁的历史老师大卫正在批改作业时,他的左手突然失去了知觉)”和“He was diagnosed with aphasia, a language disorder caused by a stroke (中风). (他被诊断出患有失语症,这是一种由中风引起的语言障碍)”及最后一段“His recovery is ongoing. Some days are good; some words still hide. But David no longer feels lost. He has learned that communication is more than perfect speech — it’s the determination to connect.(他的康复仍在进行中。有些日子情况不错;但仍有某些想法无法表达出来。但大卫不再感到迷茫了。他明白了交流不仅仅是完美的语言表达——更重要的是要有与人沟通的意愿)”可知,文章讲述了58岁历史老师David中风失语后,因爱好填字游戏找到康复突破口,借白板、写博客等方式重新表达,虽康复未竟,但他领悟到沟通的核心是联结的决心。由此可知,C选项“重获声音:一人对抗失语症的抗争”最符合文章标题。故选C。
C
Big restaurant businesses, such as McDonald’s, have introduced touch-screen checkout systems, while others have applied tabletop tablets (平板电脑) for self-service. Besides, the use of app-based delivery services, such as Uber Eats, has continued to grow. According to US reports, spending on third-party delivery has grown three times for quick-service restaurants and nearly four times for full-service restaurants in the country.
A new study carried out by Dipayan Biswas and his graduate students compares the effects of ordering from a digital screen to those of traditional methods, including printed menus. The team went over more than 23,000 orders from a number of restaurants. Each item was placed into one of three groups. Menu choices, such as fried foods and desserts, were regarded as unhealthy, while items such as vegetables and fish were considered healthy. Most soups, large salads and steaks smaller than six ounces were considered neutral.
The study showed that 61% of digital orders were unhealthy — more than 3% higher than non-digital orders. The team also found that digital menus had a greater influence on what customers ordered for dinner, since they were likely to be more tired and dependent on technology later in the day.
This situation is related to the Google effect. It suggests that the convenience of digital tools changes how people store and get back information, such as depending on cell phones for contact numbers and GPS for directions, leading to less brain effort in these tasks. This can result in more unplanned decisions, leading to more unhealthy food choices and more spending. However, the study also found that customers who were expert in technology might be less likely to suffer from the Google effect.
“Digital ordering forms encourage a more unplanned decision-making process with lower mental effort. Restaurant managers aiming to market healthier food choices may benefit from offering non-digital ordering methods. And some may be interested in marketing expensive food items during dinner hours through digital ordering to drive sales. For customers, avoiding placing digital orders during evening hours may cut spending,” Biswas said.
8. What does the first paragraph mainly show?
A. The popularity of self-service. B. The rise of digital dining services.
C. The increase in everyday spending. D. The growth of global food markets.
9. What was the primary research method applied in the study?
A. Reviewing actual order types. B. Doing tests on food’s health value.
C. Making customer satisfaction surveys. D. Having interviews with restaurant managers.
10. What does the Google effect suggest about digital tools?
A. They require a wide knowledge. B. They offer too many confusing choices.
C. They allow users to follow personal habits. D. They weaken the ability to make wise choices.
11. What are restaurants probably encouraged to do?
A. Match ordering methods to goals. B. Develop user-friendly digital tools.
C. Offer more affordable dinner foods. D. Focus on improving after-sales service.
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了研究显示,数字点餐使顾客更易受“谷歌效应”影响,做出冲动、不健康且消费更高的选择,尤其在晚餐时段。餐厅应根据经营目标选择合适的点餐方式。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Big restaurant businesses, such as McDonald’s, have introduced touch-screen checkout systems, while others have applied tabletop tablets (平板电脑) for self-service. Besides, the use of app-based delivery services, such as Uber Eats, has continued to grow. According to US reports, spending on third-party delivery has grown three times for quick-service restaurants and nearly four times for full-service restaurants in the country.( 大型餐饮企业,如麦当劳,已引入了触摸屏结账系统,而其他企业则使用桌面平板电脑进行自助服务。此外,基于应用程序的外卖服务,如优步外卖,其使用量也在持续增长。据美国的相关报道,美国快餐类餐厅的第三方外卖支出增长了三倍,而全服务餐厅的此类支出则增长了近四倍。)”可知,第一段主要展示了数字化餐饮服务的兴起。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The team went over more than 23,000 orders from a number of restaurants. Each item was placed into one of three groups. Menu choices, such as fried foods and desserts, were regarded as unhealthy, while items such as vegetables and fish were considered healthy. Most soups, large salads and steaks smaller than six ounces were considered neutral.( 研究团队审查了来自多家餐厅的超过 23000 份订单。每份订单被分为三个类别。诸如油炸食品和甜点之类的菜单选项被视为不健康食品,而蔬菜和鱼类等商品则被视为健康食品。大多数汤品、大型沙拉和重量小于六盎司的牛排被视为中性食品。)”可知,该研究分析实际订单数据,因此研究方法是查看真实订单类型。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“This situation is related to the Google effect. It suggests that the convenience of digital tools changes how people store and get back information, such as depending on cell phones for contact numbers and GPS for directions, leading to less brain effort in these tasks. This can result in more unplanned decisions, leading to more unhealthy food choices and more spending.( 这种情况与“谷歌效应”有关。它表明,数字工具的便利性改变了人们存储和获取信息的方式,比如依靠手机获取联系人信息和使用 GPS 获取路线指引,从而在这些任务中减少了脑力投入。这可能导致更多的随意决策,进而导致更不健康的饮食选择和更多的消费。)”可知,谷歌效应表明数字工具削弱了做出明智选择的能力。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Digital ordering forms encourage a more unplanned decision- making process with lower mental effort. Restaurant managers aiming to market healthier food choices may benefit from offering non-digital ordering methods. And some may be interested in marketing expensive food items during dinner hours through digital ordering to drive sales.”( 比斯瓦斯说:“数字点餐表鼓励一种更随意的决策过程,且需要的脑力更低。旨在推广更健康饮食选择的餐厅管理者可能会受益于提供非数字点餐方式。而有些人可能会有兴趣在晚餐时间通过数字点餐来推销昂贵的食品,以促进销售。”)”可推知,餐馆可能被鼓励去根据目标选择合适的点餐方式。故选A项。
D
A company from Finland called IXI is creating smart glasses. This new invention aims to provide clear vision at various distances, getting rid of the need for bifocals (双光眼镜).
Indeed, this new development could fix main problems with bifocals. Bifocals have separate areas for near and far sight, forcing users to move their heads to see clearly and offering a smaller field of view. IXI’s method provides a clear view at all distances without such actions.
This advancement represents a major leap forward from earlier attempts. While not the first of their kind, they mark a significant improvement. More than ten years ago, a company named Adlens made glasses that could be manually changed by the wearer to match their vision needs. However, this was a one-time setting. IXI’s glasses are different. They are made to keep adjusting constantly and automatically according to where the wearer is looking. The battery inside is designed to last for two days and can be charged at night. The company also hopes the glasses will accommodate many different face shapes.
The key technology relies on a special material called liquid crystals (晶体) in the lenses (镜片). Niko Eiden, the company leader, says, these crystals can be repositioned electrically, allowing the lenses to be freely adjusted. A built-in eye-tracker and a system that uses light to measure distance work together to determine the distance of an object and adjust the lenses accordingly. This adjustment occurs in just 0.2 seconds, faster than the human eyes’ natural focusing speed.
Even with this exciting technology, there are still problems to solve before the glasses can be sold. There are strict medical rules for vision correction products. Designers also need to fit a battery without making the glasses heavy. What’s more, additional real-world testing is needed for activities like driving. Fortunately, for safety, if the system stops working, the wearer can still look through the top part of the lenses.
12. Who would benefit most directly from this technology?
A. People losing their glasses frequently.
B. People caring about the weight of glasses.
C. People relying on bifocals for vision correction.
D. People mainly working in the dark environments.
13. How do IXI’s glasses differ from Adlens’ earlier product?
A. IXI’s glasses are much cheaper for users.
B. IXI’s glasses needn’t be charged anymore.
C. IXI’s glasses adjust automatically and continuously.
D. IXI’s glasses use a much more common material.
14. Which two parts work together to determine object distance?
A. The lenses and the safety-related design. B. The liquid crystals and the built-in battery.
C. The liquid crystals and the eye-tracker. D. The eye-tracker and the light-based system.
15. What will IXI most probably do next?
A. Do more practical tests and meet demanding medical rules.
B. Increase adjustment speed and reduce production cost.
C. Replace liquid crystals and add more safety functions.
D. Promote the glasses to international consumer markets.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了芬兰IXI公司研发的智能眼镜,阐述其优势、工作原理,以及上市前需解决的问题。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“This new invention aims to provide clear vision at various distances, getting rid of the need for bifocals (双光眼镜).(这项新发明旨在提供不同距离的清晰视野,不再需要双光眼镜)”和第二段中的“Indeed, this new development could fix main problems with bifocals.(事实上,这一新进展可以解决双光眼镜的主要问题)”可知,这款智能眼镜专为解决双光眼镜的弊端设计,因此依赖双光眼镜矫正视力的人会最直接地从这项技术中受益。故选C项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“More than ten years ago, a company named Adlens made glasses that could be manually changed by the wearer to match their vision needs. However, this was a one-time setting. IXI’s glasses are different. They are made to keep adjusting constantly and automatically according to where the wearer is looking.(十多年前,一家名为Adlens的公司生产了一种眼镜,佩戴者可以手动调节以适应自己的视力需求。然而,这只是一次性设置。IXI的眼镜则不同。它们能根据佩戴者的注视方向持续自动调节)”可知,IXI眼镜与Adlens早期产品的区别在于前者可自动持续调节。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“A built-in eye-tracker and a system that uses light to measure distance work together to determine the distance of an object and adjust the lenses accordingly.(内置的眼动追踪器和一个利用光线测量距离的系统协同工作,确定物体的距离并相应地调节镜片)”可知,眼动追踪器和光基测量系统共同作用以确定物体距离。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“ Even with this exciting technology, there are still problems to solve before the glasses can be sold. There are strict medical rules for vision correction products. Designers also need to fit a battery without making the glasses heavy. What’s more, additional real-world testing is needed for activities like driving. (尽管这项技术令人振奋,但这款眼镜正式上市前,仍有诸多问题亟待解决。视力矫正类产品有着严苛的医疗相关规定,设计师还需要在不增加眼镜重量的前提下嵌入电池。此外,针对驾驶这类场景,还需开展更多的实际场景测试)”可推断,IXI接下来最可能做的是完成更多实际测试,同时满足严苛的医疗规定。故选A项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
How to Beat Afternoon Tiredness
As the clock approaches 2:30 p.m., our eyelids often grow heavy. This is partly because our body temperature naturally drops in the afternoon, and this slight drop can make us feel relaxed and tired. ____16____. By using certain practical strategies, you can keep your energy steady and stay awake throughout the whole afternoon.
____17____
Light exposure sends direct signals to brain regions that help keep us awake. Modern indoor environments typically lack sufficient light intensity for mental awareness, so just 10 minutes of sunlight exposure can reset these signals instantly and efficiently.
Apply Strategic Protein Timing
____18____. What you eat and when you eat impacts daily energy patterns. A traditional lunch with purified carbohydrates (碳水化合物) causes blood sugar to rise and then drop, making afternoon tiredness even worse than usual. Nutritionists recommend protein to keep blood sugar stable, as it digests slowly and prevents sharp rises in blood sugar. A midday meal should have at least 20 — 30 grams of protein each day.
Use Movement Breaks
Prolonged sitting causes tiredness because it reduces oxygen delivery to the brain. Taking a 5-minute break every 45 — 90 minutes boosts energy levels effectively. Simple activities like delivering small items or doing desk stretches work really well. ____19____
Regulate Your Breath
During concentrated study, many students breathe shallowly, thus reducing oxygen intake when the brain needs it most. ____20____. Breathe in through the nose for four counts, hold briefly, then breathe out through the mouth for six counts. Repeating this 5 — 10 times activates the body’s natural energy-giving systems.
A Adopt proper light exposure
B. Maximize natural light exposure
C. But we don’t have to just give in to tiredness
D. The easy method fits easily into daily routines
E. Small lifestyle adjustments can prevent afternoon tiredness
F. Diet plays a major role in controlling afternoon energy levels
G. A simple 2-minute breathing reset can restore focus and energy
【答案】16. C 17. B 18. F 19. D 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文分析下午犯困是体温下降所致,还给出四大解决方法:最大化利用自然光、合理安排蛋白质摄入、穿插活动休息、调节呼吸节奏,帮人保持下午精力。
【16题详解】
根据上文“As the clock approaches 2:30 p.m., our eyelids often grow heavy. This is partly because our body temperature naturally drops in the afternoon, and this slight drop can make us feel relaxed and tired.(当时间快到下午2点30分时,我们的眼皮往往会变得沉重起来。这在一定程度上是因为人体在下午时体温会自然下降,而这种轻微的下降会让我们感到放松和疲倦)”以及后文“By using certain practical strategies, you can keep your energy steady and stay awake throughout the whole afternoon. (通过采用一些实用的策略,你可以保持精力稳定,并在整个下午都保持清醒)”可知,前文说明下午犯困是身体体温自然下降的正常生理现象,后文则提出有实用方法能保持精力、避免犯困,空格处需要起到转折衔接的作用。C选项“但我们不必向疲惫屈服”完美承接前后文,体现“现象存在但可解决”的逻辑。故选C。
【17题详解】
此空为小标题,需概括段落核心内容;根据本段内容“Light exposure sends direct signals to brain regions that help keep us awake. Modern indoor environments typically lack sufficient light intensity for mental awareness, so just 10 minutes of sunlight exposure can reset these signals instantly and efficiently.(光照会向大脑区域发送直接信号,以帮助我们保持清醒。现代室内环境通常缺乏足够的光照强度来维持精神状态,所以仅仅10分钟的阳光照射就能立即且有效地重置这些信号)”可知,整段围绕“光照唤醒大脑、室内光不足,10分钟阳光照射能重置清醒信号”展开,核心是充分利用自然光。B选项“最大化利用自然光”精准贴合段落主旨,且标题首字母需大写,符合格式要求。故选B。
【18题详解】
根据后文“What you eat and when you eat impacts daily energy patterns. A traditional lunch with purified carbohydrates (碳水化合物) causes blood sugar to rise and then drop, making afternoon tiredness even worse than usual. Nutritionists recommend protein to keep blood sugar stable, as it digests slowly and prevents sharp rises in blood sugar. A midday meal should have at least 20 — 30 grams of protein each day.(你的饮食内容和进食时间会影响日常的精力状态。一顿以精制碳水化合物为主的传统午餐会导致血糖先升后降,让午后的疲惫感比平时更严重。营养学家建议通过摄入蛋白质来稳定血糖,因为蛋白质消化速度慢,能防止血糖急剧升高。每日的午餐应摄入至少20至30克蛋白质)”可知,本空为段首句,需引出“蛋白质摄入时机”的话题,且后文提到“吃什么、什么时候吃影响每日精力,精制碳水会加重犯困,蛋白质稳定血糖”,核心是饮食对下午精力的影响。F选项“饮食在控制下午的精力水平方面起重要作用”直接点题,引出后文的饮食建议。故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Prolonged sitting causes tiredness because it reduces oxygen delivery to the brain. Taking a 5-minute break every 45 — 90 minutes boosts energy levels effectively. Simple activities like delivering small items or doing desk stretches work really well.(长时间坐着会导致疲劳,因为这会减少大脑的氧气供应。每隔45至90分钟就休息5分钟,能有效地提升精力水平。一些简单的活动,比如递送小物件或者做一些办公区的伸展运动,效果都非常好)”可知,前文介绍“每45-90分钟休息5分钟,做简单活动(送小物件、桌前拉伸)能提升精力”,D选项“这个简单的方法很容易融入日常生活”对上文方法进行总结,选项中的“The easy method”指代前文陈述的做法,承接自然。故选D。
【20题详解】
根据上文“During concentrated study, many students breathe shallowly, thus reducing oxygen intake when the brain needs it most.(在集中学习时,许多学生呼吸方式较为浅促,这会导致在大脑最需要氧气的时候,氧气摄入量减少)”以及后文“Breathe in through the nose for four counts, hold briefly, then breathe out through the mouth for six counts. Repeating this 5 — 10 times activates the body’s natural energy-giving systems.(用鼻子吸气到计数四拍(或四秒),保持片刻,然后用嘴呼气到计数六拍(或六秒)。重复此动作5到10次,可激活身体的自然能量输送系统)”可知,上文陈述浅促呼吸导致的结果,后文具体介绍了“鼻吸4秒-屏息-嘴呼6秒,重复5-10次激活能量系统”的具体做法,此空需引出“调节呼吸”的方法,。G选项“一个简单的2分钟呼吸调整能恢复注意力和精力”直接点出呼吸调节的作用和特点,引出后文的具体操作,贴合段落核心。故选G。
第三部分:语言运用 (共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)

Technology Brings People Closer
In my opinion, technology makes people closer instead of distant.
Firstly, communication apps allow us to keep in touch with family and friends anytime and anywhere, no matter how far we are. Secondly, social media helps us share our daily life and feelings, understand each other better and deepen our friendship. Thirdly, video calls let us see faces and hear voices clearly, making communication more lively and warm.
To sum up, technology breaks the limits of distance and connects our hearts closely. It truly brings people much closer than before.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写二段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was in junior high school, my home was only a ten-minute walk from the school. Instead of staying in the dormitory, I went home every noon to have lunch with my mother. These daily lunches were a comforting routine, but little did I know that these lunchtimes would have a profound impact on me.
The school year’s highlight was the annual drama competition. To my joy and surprise, I was selected by my teacher to play the lead role of the princess in the play. It was a dream part, and I was determined to excel. Every day after lunch, my mother would help me practice my lines. However, a frustrating problem arose. No matter how perfectly I delivered my lines in the living room, the moment I stepped onto the vast stage, my mind would go blank. The bright lights and silent, expectant audience seemed to swallow my words whole. After several unsuccessful rehearsals, my teacher, with a sympathetic but firm expression, made a difficult decision. She took me aside, explaining that she believed my clear voice was perfectly suited for the crucial role of the narrator, and asked me to consider switching roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed something was wrong. After lunch, instead of practicing lines as usual, she invited me for a walk in the yard. The yard was full of beautiful red roses in full bloom. But among the roses grew many white dandelions (蒲公英). I asked my mother why she didn’t remove the dandelions. She replied that she thought every flower had its own beauty, whether it was a delicate rose or a small dandelion. Her simple, accepting words struck a chord (引起共鸣) deep within me.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I could no longer hold back the flood of sad tears.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
“You will be an excellent narrator,” Mom said, holding my hands.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Possible version
I could no longer hold back the flood of sad tears. Choking on my sobs, I confessed everything — how my mind went blank on stage, how the teacher replaced me, and how ashamed I felt. “I’ve failed you after all our practice,” I cried. My mother gently wiped my cheeks and pointed back to the dandelions. “You see,” she said softly, “I never thought of removing them because every flower has its own beauty. The roses are the stars, but the dandelions hold the story together — just like a narrator. Their quiet beauty doesn’t take away from the roses; it completes the garden.” Her words slowly eased the tightness in my chest. I looked again at the humble white flowers, no longer seeing them as weeds, but as gentle storytellers nestled among the stars.
“You will be an excellent narrator,” Mom said, holding my hands. “Your voice is clear and warm, and you understand the heart of the story better than anyone.” Inspired, I devoted myself to the new role. On the night of the performance, I stood at the side of the stage, script in hand. As I began to speak, my voice, calm and confident, flowed through the auditorium, guiding the audience through the story. When the curtain fell, my teacher praised me, saying the narration had moved everyone. I finally understood that every role, like every flower, has its own unique beauty and value. That day, I learned that shining isn’t only about being the rose in the spotlight — it’s also about being the dandelion that tells the story with quiet grace.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了“我”被选中担任校园戏剧女主角,却因舞台紧张屡屡失误被替换为旁白,内心失落愧疚不愿告知母亲,母亲借院子里玫瑰与蒲公英的寓意开导“我”,最终“我”释怀并胜任旁白角色的故事。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
① 由第一段首句“我再也忍不住,泪水决堤而出。”可知,接下来可描写“我”向母亲坦白被替换角色的真相、内心的愧疚与失落,以及母亲结合院子里的花进行开导的场景。
② 由第二段首句““你会是个出色的旁白。” 妈妈握着我的手,轻声说道。”可知,接下来可描写“我”在母亲鼓励下正视新角色,努力准备旁白工作,最终在演出中获得成功与认可,领悟到每个角色都有独特价值的道理。
2. 续写线索:
坦白角色被换的真相与内心痛苦——母亲以蒲公英喻旁白角色,耐心开导——接受新角色,全力投入准备——演出中顺利完成旁白任务,获得认可——领悟“每个角色都有独特价值”的道理
3.词类激活

On a sunny Tuesday, David, a 58-year-old history teacher, was grading papers when his left hand went numb. The world was turned upside down. Hours later, from a hospital bed, he discovered a terrifying silence in his mind. He could understand everything said to him, but when he tried to reply, only nonsense sounds came out. He was diagnosed with aphasia, a language disorder caused by a stroke (中风).
Before the stroke, David’s life was built around words. He loved telling stories, debating with students, and reading novels aloud to his children. Now, he felt locked inside his own head, a prisoner of silence. Standard speech therapy felt slow and frustrating. He knew the words were in there somewhere, as if a tornado had swept through the library.
His breakthrough came not from a doctor, but from a hobby. Before his illness, David enjoyed solving crossword puzzles. One afternoon, his daughter left a simple crossword on the kitchen table. Out of habit, he picked up a pencil. To his amazement, he could slowly fill in some blanks. The clues activated a different path in his brain.
He became a “word detective.” His notebooks were filled with crossword puzzles, word searches, and lists of synonyms. He used a large whiteboard at home to map out ideas like a detective solving a case. Instead of trying to speak a full sentence, he would write key nouns and verbs on the board, point to them, and piece his thoughts together. This “detective board,” as he called it, became his new voice.
David’s confidence grew. He started a blog, typing out his recovery journey with the help of a spelling-check app. He returned to visit his school, using his whiteboard to “talk” to his former students. “I am not broken,” he wrote during one visit. “I am just learning a new way to think.”
His recovery is ongoing. Some days are good; some words still hide. But David no longer feels lost. He has learned that communication is more than perfect speech — it’s the determination to connect.

Big restaurant businesses, such as McDonald’s, have introduced touch-screen checkout systems, while others have applied tabletop tablets (平板电脑) for self-service. Besides, the use of app-based delivery services, such as Uber Eats, has continued to grow. According to US reports, spending on third-party delivery has grown three times for quick-service restaurants and nearly four times for full-service restaurants in the country.
A new study carried out by Dipayan Biswas and his graduate students compares the effects of ordering from a digital screen to those of traditional methods, including printed menus. The team went over more than 23,000 orders from a number of restaurants. Each item was placed into one of three groups. Menu choices, such as fried foods and desserts, were regarded as unhealthy, while items such as vegetables and fish were considered healthy. Most soups, large salads and steaks smaller than six ounces were considered neutral.
The study showed that 61% of digital orders were unhealthy — more than 3% higher than non-digital orders. The team also found that digital menus had a greater influence on what customers ordered for dinner, since they were likely to be more tired and dependent on technology later in the day.
This situation is related to the Google effect. It suggests that the convenience of digital tools changes how people store and get back information, such as depending on cell phones for contact numbers and GPS for directions, leading to less brain effort in these tasks. This can result in more unplanned decisions, leading to more unhealthy food choices and more spending. However, the study also found that customers who were expert in technology might be less likely to suffer from the Google effect.
“Digital ordering forms encourage a more unplanned decision-making process with lower mental effort. Restaurant managers aiming to market healthier food choices may benefit from offering non-digital ordering methods. And some may be interested in marketing expensive food items during dinner hours through digital ordering to drive sales. For customers, avoiding placing digital orders during evening hours may cut spending,” Biswas said.
8. What does the first paragraph mainly show?
A. The popularity of self-service. B. The rise of digital dining services.
C. The increase in everyday spending. D. The growth of global food markets.
9. What was the primary research method applied in the study?
A. Reviewing actual order types. B. Doing tests on food’s health value.
C. Making customer satisfaction surveys. D. Having interviews with restaurant managers.
10. What does the Google effect suggest about digital tools?
A. They require a wide knowledge. B. They offer too many confusing choices.
C. They allow users to follow personal habits. D. They weaken the ability to make wise choices.
11. What are restaurants probably encouraged to do?
A. Match ordering methods to goals. B. Develop user-friendly digital tools.
C. Offer more affordable dinner foods. D. Focus on improving after-sales service.
D
A company from Finland called IXI is creating smart glasses. This new invention aims to provide clear vision at various distances, getting rid of the need for bifocals (双光眼镜).
Indeed, this new development could fix main problems with bifocals. Bifocals have separate areas for near and far sight, forcing users to move their heads to see clearly and offering a smaller field of view. IXI’s method provides a clear view at all distances without such actions.
This advancement represents a major leap forward from earlier attempts. While not the first of their kind, they mark a significant improvement. More than ten years ago, a company named Adlens made glasses that could be manually changed by the wearer to match their vision needs. However, this was a one-time setting. IXI’s glasses are different. They are made to keep adjusting constantly and automatically according to where the wearer is looking. The battery inside is designed to last for two days and can be charged at night. The company also hopes the glasses will accommodate many different face shapes.
The key technology relies on a special material called liquid crystals (晶体) in the lenses (镜片). Niko Eiden, the company leader, says, these crystals can be repositioned electrically, allowing the lenses to be freely adjusted. A built-in eye-tracker and a system that uses light to measure distance work together to determine the distance of an object and adjust the lenses accordingly. This adjustment occurs in just 0.2 seconds, faster than the human eyes’ natural focusing speed.
Even with this exciting technology, there are still problems to solve before the glasses can be sold. There are strict medical rules for vision correction products. Designers also need to fit a battery without making the glasses heavy. What’s more, additional real-world testing is needed for activities like driving. Fortunately, for safety, if the system stops working, the wearer can still look through the top part of the lenses.
12. Who would benefit most directly from this technology?
A. People losing their glasses frequently.
B. People caring about the weight of glasses.
C. People relying on bifocals for vision correction.
D. People mainly working in the dark environments.
13. How do IXI’s glasses differ from Adlens’ earlier product?
A. IXI’s glasses are much cheaper for users.
B. IXI’s glasses needn’t be charged anymore.
C. IXI’s glasses adjust automatically and continuously.
D. IXI’s glasses use a much more common material.
14. Which two parts work together to determine object distance?
A. The lenses and the safety-related design. B. The liquid crystals and the built-in battery.
C. The liquid crystals and the eye-tracker. D. The eye-tracker and the light-based system.
15. What will IXI most probably do next?
A. Do more practical tests and meet demanding medical rules.
B. Increase adjustment speed and reduce production cost.
C. Replace liquid crystals and add more safety functions.
D. Promote the glasses to international consumer markets.

How to Beat Afternoon Tiredness
As the clock approaches 2:30 p.m., our eyelids often grow heavy. This is partly because our body temperature naturally drops in the afternoon, and this slight drop can make us feel relaxed and tired. ____16____. By using certain practical strategies, you can keep your energy steady and stay awake throughout the whole afternoon.
____17____
Light exposure sends direct signals to brain regions that help keep us awake. Modern indoor environments typically lack sufficient light intensity for mental awareness, so just 10 minutes of sunlight exposure can reset these signals instantly and efficiently.
Apply Strategic Protein Timing
____18____. What you eat and when you eat impacts daily energy patterns. A traditional lunch with purified carbohydrates (碳水化合物) causes blood sugar to rise and then drop, making afternoon tiredness even worse than usual. Nutritionists recommend protein to keep blood sugar stable, as it digests slowly and prevents sharp rises in blood sugar. A midday meal should have at least 20 — 30 grams of protein each day.
Use Movement Breaks
Prolonged sitting causes tiredness because it reduces oxygen delivery to the brain. Taking a 5-minute break every 45 — 90 minutes boosts energy levels effectively. Simple activities like delivering small items or doing desk stretches work really well. ____19____
Regulate Your Breath
During concentrated study, many students breathe shallowly, thus reducing oxygen intake when the brain needs it most. ____20____. Breathe in through the nose for four counts, hold briefly, then breathe out through the mouth for six counts. Repeating this 5 — 10 times activates the body’s natural energy-giving systems.
A. Adopt proper light exposure
B. Maximize natural light exposure
C. But we don’t have to just give in to tiredness
D. The easy method fits easily into daily routines
E. Small lifestyle adjustments can prevent afternoon tiredness
F. Diet plays a major role in controlling afternoon energy levels
G. A simple 2-minute breathing reset can restore focus and energy

One memorable ____26____ was with Rainbow Kaclin, who lives nearby. She spotted the stand and ____27____ when driving home. “I saw that it said ‘Free compliments,’ and I thought it was so sweet,” Kaclin said, her voice ____28____ with the memory. When she mentioned that she was ____29____ a new employee, Ethan’s response came without ____30____: “I hope she learns a lot from you.” Kaclin thanked him and started to drive off, but Ethan — realizing his compliment wasn’t quite right — ____31____ up to her car. “Your name is so unique,” he added. “He genuinely wanted to make people’s ____32____,” Kaclin recalled.
The story reached even more people after Ethan’s father Wargo shared a post online, which became an immediate ____33____, drawing countless supportive comments.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写二段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was in junior high school, my home was only a ten-minute walk from the school. Instead of staying in the dormitory, I went home every noon to have lunch with my mother. These daily lunches were a comforting routine, but little did I know that these lunchtimes would have a profound impact on me.
The school year’s highlight was the annual drama competition. To my joy and surprise, I was selected by my teacher to play the lead role of the princess in the play. It was a dream part, and I was determined to excel. Every day after lunch, my mother would help me practice my lines. However, a frustrating problem arose. No matter how perfectly I delivered my lines in the living room, the moment I stepped onto the vast stage, my mind would go blank. The bright lights and silent, expectant audience seemed to swallow my words whole. After several unsuccessful rehearsals, my teacher, with a sympathetic but firm expression, made a difficult decision. She took me aside, explaining that she believed my clear voice was perfectly suited for the crucial role of the narrator, and asked me to consider switching roles. Her words, kindly delivered, still hurt me especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed something was wrong. After lunch, instead of practicing lines as usual, she invited me for a walk in the yard. The yard was full of beautiful red roses in full bloom. But among the roses grew many white dandelions (蒲公英). I asked my mother why she didn’t remove the dandelions. She replied that she thought every flower had its own beauty, whether it was a delicate rose or a small dandelion. Her simple, accepting words struck a chord (引起共鸣) deep within me.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I could no longer hold back the flood of sad tears.
