B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了华纳兄弟伦敦工作室之旅——《哈利·波特的制作》的官方导游体验，包括游客可以期待的内容、额外信息以及取消政策等。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据What To Expect部分中“You will be given your own personal headset to ensure you do not miss any of the fascinating behind-the-scenes facts.(您将获得自己的个人耳机，以确保您不会错过任何有趣的幕后事实)”可知，在整个参观过程中，游客可以了解幕后事实。故选B项。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据Additional Information部分中“Infants (婴儿) must sit on laps.(婴儿必须坐在腿上)”可推知，携带婴儿的夫妇可以参加这次旅行。故选A项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Cancellation Policy部分中“If you cancel within 2 days of the scheduled departure, there is a 100 percent cancellation fee.(如果您在预定出发日期前2天内取消，将收取100%的取消费)”可知，在出发当天取消旅行肯定会造成经济损失。故选B项。 B From collectors flying across countries to K-pop star Lisa saying “I go Pop Mart everywhere,” Pop Mart, a Chinese toy brand, has become a worldwide craze. At the center are blind-box toys and famous characters, none more talked about than Labubu, a furry “ugly-cute” figure loved across the globe. Founded in 2010 by Wang Ning, Pop Mart grew from a small shop in Beijing into China’s top “trendy toy” company. Its breakthrough came in 2016 with Molly blind boxes, proving mystery packs could create excitement and huge sales. Since then, Pop Mart has built an “IP engine” — developing or licensing characters, turning them into toy figures, and selling them through shops and vending machines (自动售货机). It has also partnered with Disney and Sanrio. By 2025, Labubu had become its best-selling character, reflecting the rise of trendy toys as part of global youth culture. For young consumers, these toys mean more than playthings. Claire Carrillo, a 24-year-old from the Philippines, is drawn to CryBaby, a genderless character with rosy cheeks and teary eyes. “I see myself as a crybaby,” she explained. Similarly, Singapore filmmaker Ashley Jane Leow collects Hirono and Nyota because they reflect her and her boyfriend’s personalities. One big reason behind Pop Mart’s success is the “kidult” market, made up of young people and Gen Z who enjoy hobbies linked to childhood. According to its 2024 report, the company now operates over 530 stores worldwide, making around 13.2 billion yuan in sales. Another driver is blind box culture. The surprise element pushes people to buy more and creates a sense of anticipation that makes each purchase feel like a small adventure. It also encourages community through sharing, trading and displaying the toys. “It’s just a fun little thing we do together to relieve stress,” said Amanda Lee, 26, from Singapore, who enjoys opening blind boxes with colleagues at lunch. For many, the magic of Pop Mart lies in this mix of art, emotion and connection. 4. What does the word “craze” in paragraph 1 most probably mean? A. A common daily habit. B. A lasting cultural tradition. C. A brief but intense fashion. D. A problem troubling society. 5. What helped Pop Mart grow quickly in 2016? A. The launch of vending machines. B. The success of Molly blind boxes. C. Partnerships with Disney and Sanrio. D. Its licensing characters and toy figures. 6. Why does Carrillo from the Philippines like the CryBaby series? A. Because it has a delicate appearance. B. Because it shows her own character. C. Because it reminds her of childhood. D. Because it enjoys worldwide popularity. 7. Why are Pop Mart purchases attractive to consumers? A. Because they remind elderly people of their childhood. B. Because they boost stress relief and community growth. C. Because they offer office workers fun during lunch breaks. D. Because they increase excitement through surprise elements. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. B 7. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国玩具品牌泡泡玛特凭借盲盒玩具和知名形象风靡全球，介绍了其发展历程、成功原因，并说明这些玩具对年轻消费者而言不仅是玩物，还承载情感与社交意义。 【4题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段中“From collectors flying across countries to K-pop star Lisa saying ‘I go Pop Mart everywhere,’ Pop Mart, a Chinese toy brand, has become a worldwide craze. (从跨国而来的收藏家，到韩国流行乐明星 Lisa 说‘我走到哪都带着泡泡玛特’，中国玩具品牌泡泡玛特已成为全球craze。)”可知，craze体现泡泡玛特当下受到广泛追捧的热度，因此该词意为“热潮”，与C项“短暂而强烈的时尚”意思相近。故选C。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Its breakthrough came in 2016 with Molly blind boxes, proving mystery packs could create excitement and huge sales. (2016 年，Molly盲盒的推出为其带来了突破，这证明神秘包装能激发消费者热情并创造高额销量。)”可知，2016年Molly盲盒的成功助力泡泡玛特快速发展。故选B。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Claire Carrillo, a 24-year-old from the Philippines, is drawn to CryBaby, a genderless character with rosy cheeks and teary eyes. “I see myself as a crybaby,” she explained. (24岁的菲律宾女孩 Claire Carrillo 被哭娃系列吸引，这是一个没有性别的角色，有着红润的脸颊和泪眼。她解释道：‘我觉得自己就像个哭娃。’)” 可知，Carrillo 喜欢哭娃系列是因为该形象能体现她自己的性格。故选B。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Another driver is blind box culture. The surprise element pushes people to buy more and creates a sense of anticipation that makes each purchase feel like a small adventure. (另一个推动因素是盲盒文化。惊喜元素促使人们购买更多产品，并营造出一种期待感，让每次购买都像一场小冒险。)” 可知，泡泡玛特产品对消费者有吸引力的原因之一是惊喜元素带来的兴奋感。故选D。 C If you ask a Westerner to name a successful Chinese consumer-goods brand (品牌) most would have struggled until recently. Although China is the world’s leading manufacturing power, it has long fallen behind in creating imaginative, home-grown retail (零售) brands and products. That, however, is beginning to change. Innovative Chinese brands are appearing everywhere. From Stockholm to Sydney, the electric cars silently passing by are increasingly likely to be Chinese. Mixue, an ice-cream and cold drinks company, has overtaken McDonald’s to become the world’s largest fast-food chain by number of outlets (分销点). It is expanding in South America, as is Meituan, a Beijing-based delivery app. Chagee, a chain of tea shops, is on track to have at least 1,300 stores outside China by the end of 2027, mostly in Southeast Asia; just a few years ago, it had almost none. Meanwhile, PopMart, a Chinese toy company, has created a buzz as much as Disney with its unusual grinning nine-toothed doll, called Labubu. It is impossible not to admire the creative force behind these successful companies. Western consumers have been buying products made in China for decades. However, these goods were mostly designed by and produced for foreign companies. Chinese brands were long regarded as low-quality and lacking creativity. New companies are now challenging these old assumptions. Many proudly emphasize their Chinese heritage. For example, Chagee’s logo features a Peking Opera singer in full costume, and its name comes from Farewell My Concubine, a classic Chinese opera. The video game Black Myth: Wukong, one of the most successful ever, features the Monkey King from the16th-century novel Journey to the West. Today, many Chinese brands compete not only on price but also on quality. Chagee’s drinks can even be as expensive as Starbucks’. Western companies will need to wake up and take notice of bubble tea. In the future, they will have to make more efforts to understand Chinese consumers’ unique tastes. Some may even partner with innovative Chinese firms to gain insight and inspiration. Competition from China could eventually push Disney, Mattel toys, and other major Western brands to reach new levels of creativity. 8. What does the underlined part “created a buzz” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Caused public excitement. B. Made a loud noise. C. Lost great popularity. D. Received negative comments. 9. How did western consumers find Chinese brands? A. Full of imagination and deeply cultural. B. Short of creativity and of low quality. C. Quality guaranteed and highly competitive. D. Mass produced and popular worldwide. 10. What is the author’s advice for western brands? A. Notice different bubble tea. B. Ignore the Chinese influence. C. Cooperate with Chinese brands. D. Lower the price of the products. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. Chinese Brands Go Global. B. From Made-in-China to Created-in-China. C. Cultural Elements in Brand Building. D. Competition Between Chinese and Western Brands. 【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了中国消费品品牌从长期被视为缺乏创意、质量平平，到近年来涌现出大量创新品牌并成功走向全球的转变，分析了其利用文化元素提升品质与创意的策略，并展望了其对西方品牌可能带来的竞争与启发。 【8题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Meanwhile, PopMart, a Chinese toy company, has created a buzz as much as Disney with its unusual grinning nine-toothed doll, called Labubu.(与此同时，中国玩具公司泡泡玛特凭借其不同寻常咧嘴露九颗牙的玩偶拉布布，引起了和迪士尼一样的……)”可知，泡泡玛特凭借其独特的玩偶和迪士尼一样引起了公众的广泛关注和兴奋。划线短语created a buzz意思是“引起了公众的兴奋”。故选A项。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Chinese brands were long regarded as low-quality and lacking creativity. (中国品牌长期以来被认为质量低劣且缺乏创造力)”可知，西方消费者过去认为中国品牌缺乏创意且质量低下。故选B项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Western companies will need to wake up and take notice of bubble tea. In the future, they will have to make more efforts to understand Chinese consumers’ unique tastes. Some may even partner with innovative Chinese firms to gain insight and inspiration. (西方公司需要觉醒并关注珍珠奶茶。未来，他们将不得不更加努力地了解中国消费者的独特品味。有些人甚至可能与创新的中国公司合作，以获得洞察力和灵感)”可知，作者建议西方品牌要关注中国品牌的崛起，并可以考虑与创新的中国公司合作以获取灵感和洞察市场。故选C项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，文章始终围绕中国品牌的全球化表现展开。第一段提出问题“If you ask a Westerner to name a successful Chinese consumer-goods brand...(如果你让一个西方人说出一个成功的中国消费品品牌……)”，随后第二段以一系列具体数据展示中国品牌在全球的扩张：“From Stockholm to Sydney, the electric cars silently passing by are increasingly likely to be Chinese.(从斯德哥尔摩到悉尼，静静驶过的电动汽车越来越有可能是中国制造的)”、“Mixue, an ice-cream and cold drinks company, has overtaken McDonald’s to become the world’s largest fast-food chain by number of outlets (分销点) (冰淇淋和冷饮公司蜜雪冰城已超过麦当劳，成为全球门店数量最多的快餐连锁店)”、“Chagee, a chain of tea shops, is on track to have at least 1,300 stores outside China(奶茶连锁霸王茶姬有望在中国境外拥有至少1300家门店)”以及“PopMart, a Chinese toy company, has created a buzz as much as Disney(中国玩具公司泡泡玛特已经创造了和迪士尼一样多的热度)”。这些内容共同构成了对中国品牌“走向全球”这一趋势的详细描述。虽然文章后文提及了中国品牌在质量、创意和文化元素方面的进步，但这都是为了支撑其全球竞争力，说明他们为何能成功走向世界。因此，全文的核心主旨是中国品牌的全球化进程。所以A项“Chinese Brands Go Global.(中国品牌走向世界)”能概括全文内容，适合作文章标题。故选A项。 D Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes. One explanation for confirmation bias is that it is an efficient way to process information. Humans are constantly fed with information and cannot possibly take the time to carefully process each piece. It is adaptive for humans to rely on subconscious, automatic judgements that contribute to the efficiency. Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. Therefore, confirmation bias will encourage them to disregard the information contrary to their belief. Researches show that confirmation bias is strong and widespread. In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. Only when a researcher directly asked people to generate arguments against their own beliefs were they able to do so. It is not that people are incapable of generating arguments that are contrary to their beliefs, but, rather, people are not motivated to do so. Confirmation bias also surfaces in interpersonal communication. When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library. Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact. 12. Why do people show confirmation bias? A. To help maintain their dignity. B. To prevent shallow judgements. C. To handle complex information. D. To develop their logical reasoning. 13. What did the studies in Paragraph 3 find? A. People couldn’t produce arguments against their belief. B. Information supporting people’s belief often won preference. C. It took considerable motivation to face controversial issues. D. People focused on information concerning the opposing side. 14. How does the writer illustrate confirmation bias in communication? A. By making comparison. B. By giving an example. C. By introducing a study. D. By defining a concept. 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. The role of my-side bias in enhancing people’s own beliefs. B. The effects of information overload on decision-making process. C. The impact of confirmation bias on interpersonal communication. D. Understanding of confirmation bias and strategies to overcome it. 【答案】12. A 13. B 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了确认偏误的理解及其克服策略。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. (人们表现出确认偏误的另一个原因是保护自我价值。人们喜欢对自己有良好的感觉，而发现自己高度认同的信念是错误的会让他们自我感觉糟糕)”可知，人们表现出确认偏误的另一个原因是为了保护他们的自我价值。换句话说，是为了帮助他们保持尊严。故选A。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。由文章第三段中“In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. (在研究“我方偏误”的实验中，人们能够生成并记住更多支持自己在一项有争议问题上立场的理由，而不是反对立场的理由)”可知，支持人们信念的信息往往更受欢迎。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。由文章第四段中“When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library. (在与人们认为具有某种性格的人互动时，感知者会提出倾向于支持自己信念的偏见性问题。如果玛丽亚认为新室友友好且外向，她可能会问她是否喜欢参加聚会，而不是问她是否经常在图书馆学习)”可知，文中通过举Maria与新室友交往的例子来说明确认偏误在交流中的表现，即作者是运用举例的写作手法。故选B。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第一段“Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes. (确认偏误指的是人们倾向于寻找支持自己现有信念的信息。尽管这通常是潜意识的，但其影响却十分重大。它会使人们的判断和决策过程变得模糊)”和最后一段“Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact. (确认偏误可能导致对某个问题或话题的理解不完整和误解，因为关键信息可能会被忽视或驳回。因此，为了避免这种情况，人们应该多样化信息来源，因为从多个角度获取信息有助于更全面地理解主题，并做出周全的决策。另一种方法是主动挑战偏见，通过质疑假设并依赖证据而非个人意见，这有助于我们有意识地识别信息偏见并最大限度地减少其影响)”可知，文章主要讲述了对确认偏误的理解以及克服它的策略。故选D。 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。 As a weather presenter, I often hear complaints like, “I hosted my son’s wedding on Saturday, and you told me it would rain, but it didn’t. Why did you get it wrong?” Over my career, forecasting has improved almost beyond recognition. Meteorology (气象学) experts note that a one-day forecast is now correct over 90% of the time. ___16___ A recent survey reveals 37% of British adults don’t trust the weather forecast “very much” or “at all.” So why, with all our wealth of knowledge and powerful forecasting technology, do some people still perceive the weather forecasts as inaccurate? ___17___ In today’s world, we have access to instant information. We can adjust the temperature of our fridges or detect problems with our cars using our smartphones in seconds. So why can’t we find out whether it’s going to rain on our street at 2 pm on Sunday with 100% accuracy? ___18___ Meteorology generates an overwhelming amount of data; it’s difficult to turn it into a brief, attention-grabbing prediction for TV or digital app. It means that even when we are technically correct, some viewers might still be confused. The real challenge lies in the tricky nature of meteorology. ___19___ A slight error as small as 0.01°C in the initial data can produce an entirely different result. It’s important to remember that forecasting is about predicting. The future of weather forecasting may soon be transformed by AI. The advances in AI and forecasting promise exciting possibilities, including the prospect of longer-term, more accurate forecasts. Perhaps one day, I’ll meet a mother asking me to predict weather at her son’s wedding six months from now. ___20___ A. It’s a delicate science. B. Viewers are no longer interested. C. However, there are still gaps in public trust. D. Part of the answer is in our rising expectations. E. And then I might be able to give a better answer. F. We will make sure technology bugs never happen. G. Another reason is how the information is communicated. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. G 19. A 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了尽管天气预报准确性显著提升，公众信任度仍不足的原因，包括过高的期望值、信息传播方式的挑战及气象学本身的精细性，并展望AI可能改善未来预报能力。 【16题详解】 前文“Meteorology (气象学) experts note that a one-day forecast is now correct over 90% of the time. (气象专家指出，现在一天的天气预报准确率超过90%。)”提到天气预报的准确率大幅提升，后文“A recent survey reveals 37% of British adults don’t trust the weather forecast “very much” or “at all.” (最近的一项调查显示，37%的英国成年人“非常”或“根本”不相信天气预报。)”指出仍有部分人群不太信任天气预报，此处需有转折，表明尽管技术进步，但公众信任度仍有差距，因此C项“However, there are still gaps in public trust. (然而，公众信任仍有差距。)”符合语境，和前文构成转折，后文是对其具体说明。故选C。 【17题详解】 前文“So why, with all our wealth of knowledge and powerful forecasting technology, do some people still perceive the weather forecasts as inaccurate? (那么，尽管我们拥有丰富的知识和强大的预报技术，为什么仍然有人认为天气预报不准确呢？)”提问仍有人认为天气预报不准确的原因，后文“In today’s world, we have access to instant information. We can adjust the temperature of our fridges or detect problems with our cars using our smartphones in seconds. So why can’t we find out whether it’s going to rain on our street at 2 pm on Sunday with 100% accuracy? (在当今世界，我们可以获得即时信息。我们可以用智能手机在几秒钟内调节冰箱的温度或检测汽车的问题。那么，为什么我们不能百分百准确地知道周日下午2点我们的街道上是否会下雨呢？)”指出现代社会依赖即时信息，人们希望得到准确答案，此处应给出期望提高这一回答，因此D项“Part of the answer is in our rising expectations. (部分原因在于我们的期望值提高了。)”符合语境，承接前文，后文是对其解释说明。故选D。 【18题详解】 后文“Meteorology generates an overwhelming amount of data; it’s difficult to turn it into a brief, attention-grabbing prediction for TV or digital app. (气象学产生了大量的数据；很难将其转化为对电视或数字应用的简短、引人注目的预测。)”指出气象数据庞大，难以转化为简短易懂的预测，此处应体现信息传播方式的影响，因此G项“Another reason is how the information is communicated. (另一个原因是信息的传播方式。)”符合语境，统领后文内容。故选G。 【19题详解】 前文“The real challenge lies in the tricky nature of meteorology. (真正的挑战在于气象学的棘手本质。)”提到气象学的棘手本质，后文“A slight error as small as 0.01°C in the initial data can produce an entirely different result. (在初始数据中，哪怕只有0.01摄氏度的微小误差，也会产生完全不同的结果。)”举例说明微小误差也会产生完全不同的结果，此处需点明气象学的精细性，因此A项“It’s a delicate science. (这是一门精细的科学。)”符合语境，承接前文，后文的案例是对其支撑说明，其中的It指代前文的meteorology。故选A。 【20题详解】 前文“The advances in AI and forecasting promise exciting possibilities, including the prospect of longer-term, more accurate forecasts. Perhaps one day, I’ll meet a mother asking me to predict weather at her son’s wedding six months from now. (人工智能和预测的进步带来了令人兴奋的可能性，包括更长期、更准确的预测。也许有一天，我会遇到一位母亲，让我预测六个月后她儿子婚礼上的天气。)”展望AI可能提升长期预报准确性，引出6个月后的婚礼天气预测，此处应给出对未来预报能力的乐观回应，因此E项“And then I might be able to give a better answer. (那时我或许能给出更好的答案。)”符合语境，承接前文。故选E。 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，选出最佳选项。 Ten years ago, while applying to graduate school, I felt uncertain about my future.

Instead, she typed a question that had been pressing on her heart for weeks: ‌“Why won’t Grandma eat properly?” It was early January. After finishing her exams, Mira had returned to her hometown to spend some quiet days with her grandmother. The old woman had once been a legend — she’d worked as a tailor (裁缝), made dresses for half the village and saved enough to open her own shop. Time had taken its toll. Now her eyesight had dimmed, her fingers trembled, but she was still that legendary woman who lived on her own terms. Whenever someone ladled (用勺子舀) soup into her bowl, she would push it away, murmuring, ‌“I don’t need it. Save it for yourselves.” Every meal played out the same way. It broke Mira’s heart. Actually, the family was doing well. There was plenty of food, plenty of love. So why did eating — a simple, everyday act — seem like a burden to her? She tried reasoning with her, but the more she talked, the more Grandma resisted. Until one day, in a moment of frustration, she blurted out, ‌“Grandma, you make me so sad when you act like this.” The old woman froze, then sighed. ‌“I’m over seventy. I won’t be around much longer. It doesn’t matter how I eat.” The words cut deep. Mira thought about taking her to a psychologist (心理医生) but knew she’d refuse. So she turned to an old companion, the AI. The response came quickly. Grandma was refusing food because she felt like she no longer had a place in the family. The AI offered suggestions: Help her feel secure and needed. 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。 Paragraph 1: With AI’s assistance, Mira began her plan. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As meals became less of a battle, Mira decided to relight the sparkle in grandmother’s eyes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文： With AI’s assistance, Mira began her plan. First, she worked with AI to create customized recipes for Grandma, accounting for her age-related digestive issues and past preferences to make nutritious, easy-to-swallow dishes. Meanwhile, following AI’s suggestion to make Grandma feel valued, the family started to shower her with more attention — sitting with her at meals, chatting warmly, expressing appreciation and encouraging her to eat. As days passed, Grandma began to sense the genuine care and importance the family placed on her. Gradually, the once-stubborn resistance to food faded away. As meals became less of a battle, Mira decided to relight the sparkle in grandmother’s eyes. “It’s time to make her feel needed,” Mira thought, appealing to Grandma’s pride as the village’s best tailor and asking her to make a special outfit for a school event. Grandma’s eyes lit up immediately, a spark of the old force she once had returning. Mira and Grandma spent hours crafting together — Grandma patiently guiding her through measuring, cutting, and sewing, sharing stories of her tailor days. This interaction restored Grandma’s self-worth, strengthened their bond, and gave her a new lease on life. Her appetite improved with renewed energy from skill recognition, leaving Mira amazed at AI’s role as an outstanding virtual psychologist. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Mira的奶奶拒绝吃饭，Mira求助AI后得知奶奶觉得自己在家庭中没有了位置，于是Mira开始实施计划。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“在人工智能的帮助下，米拉开始了她的计划。”可知，第一段可描写米拉根据AI的建议为奶奶制定食谱，家人也给予奶奶更多关注，奶奶逐渐改变了态度。 ②由第二段首句内容“随着吃饭不再是一场斗争，米拉决定重新点燃祖母眼中的光芒。”可知，第二段可描写米拉利用奶奶的裁缝技能，让奶奶为学校活动制作特殊服装，奶奶的自我价值感得到恢复，与米拉的关系也更加亲密。 2. 续写线索：米拉制定食谱——家人给予关注——奶奶改变态度——米拉让奶奶制作服装——奶奶自我价值感恢复——关系更加亲密 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①表达：express/show/convey ②恢复：restore/recover/renew ③加强：strengthen/reinforce/enhance 情绪类 ①耐心地：patiently/with patience ②惊讶的：amazed/openmouthed 【点睛】[高分句型1] As days passed, Grandma began to sense the genuine care and importance the family placed on her.

B From collectors flying across countries to K-pop star Lisa saying “I go Pop Mart everywhere,” Pop Mart, a Chinese toy brand, has become a worldwide craze. At the center are blind-box toys and famous characters, none more talked about than Labubu, a furry “ugly-cute” figure loved across the globe. Founded in 2010 by Wang Ning, Pop Mart grew from a small shop in Beijing into China’s top “trendy toy” company. Its breakthrough came in 2016 with Molly blind boxes, proving mystery packs could create excitement and huge sales. Since then, Pop Mart has built an “IP engine” — developing or licensing characters, turning them into toy figures, and selling them through shops and vending machines (自动售货机). It has also partnered with Disney and Sanrio. By 2025, Labubu had become its best-selling character, reflecting the rise of trendy toys as part of global youth culture. For young consumers, these toys mean more than playthings. Claire Carrillo, a 24-year-old from the Philippines, is drawn to CryBaby, a genderless character with rosy cheeks and teary eyes. “I see myself as a crybaby,” she explained. Similarly, Singapore filmmaker Ashley Jane Leow collects Hirono and Nyota because they reflect her and her boyfriend’s personalities. One big reason behind Pop Mart’s success is the “kidult” market, made up of young people and Gen Z who enjoy hobbies linked to childhood. According to its 2024 report, the company now operates over 530 stores worldwide, making around 13.2 billion yuan in sales. Another driver is blind box culture. The surprise element pushes people to buy more and creates a sense of anticipation that makes each purchase feel like a small adventure. It also encourages community through sharing, trading and displaying the toys. “It’s just a fun little thing we do together to relieve stress,” said Amanda Lee, 26, from Singapore, who enjoys opening blind boxes with colleagues at lunch. For many, the magic of Pop Mart lies in this mix of art, emotion and connection. 4. What does the word “craze” in paragraph 1 most probably mean? A A common daily habit. B. A lasting cultural tradition. C. A brief but intense fashion. D. A problem troubling society. 5. What helped Pop Mart grow quickly in 2016? A. The launch of vending machines. B. The success of Molly blind boxes. C. Partnerships with Disney and Sanrio. D. Its licensing characters and toy figures. 6. Why does Carrillo from the Philippines like the CryBaby series? A. Because it has a delicate appearance. B. Because it shows her own character. C. Because it reminds her of childhood. D. Because it enjoys worldwide popularity. 7. Why are Pop Mart purchases attractive to consumers? A. Because they remind elderly people of their childhood. B. Because they boost stress relief and community growth. C. Because they offer office workers fun during lunch breaks. D. Because they increase excitement through surprise elements. C If you ask a Westerner to name a successful Chinese consumer-goods brand (品牌) most would have struggled until recently. Although China is the world’s leading manufacturing power, it has long fallen behind in creating imaginative, home-grown retail (零售) brands and products. That, however, is beginning to change. Innovative Chinese brands are appearing everywhere. From Stockholm to Sydney, the electric cars silently passing by are increasingly likely to be Chinese. Mixue, an ice-cream and cold drinks company, has overtaken McDonald’s to become the world’s largest fast-food chain by number of outlets (分销点). It is expanding in South America, as is Meituan, a Beijing-based delivery app. Chagee, a chain of tea shops, is on track to have at least 1,300 stores outside China by the end of 2027, mostly in Southeast Asia; just a few years ago, it had almost none. Meanwhile, PopMart, a Chinese toy company, has created a buzz as much as Disney with its unusual grinning nine-toothed doll, called Labubu. It is impossible not to admire the creative force behind these successful companies. Western consumers have been buying products made in China for decades. However, these goods were mostly designed by and produced for foreign companies. Chinese brands were long regarded as low-quality and lacking creativity. New companies are now challenging these old assumptions. Many proudly emphasize their Chinese heritage. For example, Chagee’s logo features a Peking Opera singer in full costume, and its name comes from Farewell My Concubine, a classic Chinese opera. The video game Black Myth: Wukong, one of the most successful ever, features the Monkey King from the16th-century novel Journey to the West. Today, many Chinese brands compete not only on price but also on quality. Chagee’s drinks can even be as expensive as Starbucks’. Western companies will need to wake up and take notice of bubble tea. In the future, they will have to make more efforts to understand Chinese consumers’ unique tastes. Some may even partner with innovative Chinese firms to gain insight and inspiration. Competition from China could eventually push Disney, Mattel toys, and other major Western brands to reach new levels of creativity. 8. What does the underlined part “created a buzz” in Paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Caused public excitement. B. Made a loud noise. C. Lost great popularity. D. Received negative comments. 9. How did western consumers find Chinese brands? A. Full of imagination and deeply cultural. B. Short of creativity and of low quality. C. Quality guaranteed and highly competitive. D. Mass produced and popular worldwide. 10. What is the author’s advice for western brands? A. Notice different bubble tea. B. Ignore the Chinese influence. C. Cooperate with Chinese brands. D. Lower the price of the products. 11. Which is the best title for the text? A. Chinese Brands Go Global. B. From Made-in-China to Created-in-China. C. Cultural Elements in Brand Building. D. Competition Between Chinese and Western Brands. D Confirmation bias refers to people’s tendency to seek out information that supports their existing beliefs. While it’s usually subconscious, its impacts are significant. It can cloud people’s judgement and decision-making processes. One explanation for confirmation bias is that it is an efficient way to process information. Humans are constantly fed with information and cannot possibly take the time to carefully process each piece. It is adaptive for humans to rely on subconscious, automatic judgements that contribute to the efficiency. Another reason why people show confirmation bias is to protect their self-worth. People like to feel good about themselves, and discovering a belief they highly value is incorrect makes them feel bad about themselves. Therefore, confirmation bias will encourage them to disregard the information contrary to their belief. Researches show that confirmation bias is strong and widespread. In studies examining my-side bias, people were able to generate and remember more reasons supporting their side of a controversial issue than the opposing side. Only when a researcher directly asked people to generate arguments against their own beliefs were they able to do so. It is not that people are incapable of generating arguments that are contrary to their beliefs, but, rather, people are not motivated to do so. Confirmation bias also surfaces in interpersonal communication. When interacting with people who perceivers think have certain personalities, the perceivers will ask questions that are biased toward supporting the perceivers’ beliefs. If a new roommate is expected to be friendly and outgoing, Maria may ask her if she likes to go to parties rather than asking if she often studies in the library. Confirmation bias may lead to incomplete and misinterpreted understanding of an issue or topic, as crucial information may be overlooked or dismissed. Thus, to avoid it, people are supposed to diversify the sources of information accessed as seeking multiple perspectives brings a broader understanding of the subject matter and allows for well-rounded decision-making. Another way is to actively challenge the bias by questioning assumptions and relying on evidence rather than personal opinions, which helps us consciously recognize informational biases and minimize their impact. 12. Why do people show confirmation bias? A. To help maintain their dignity. B. To prevent shallow judgements. C. To handle complex information. D. To develop their logical reasoning. 13. What did the studies in Paragraph 3 find? A. People couldn’t produce arguments against their belief. B. Information supporting people’s belief often won preference. C. It took considerable motivation to face controversial issues. D. People focused on information concerning the opposing side. 14. How does the writer illustrate confirmation bias in communication? A. By making comparison. B. By giving an example. C. By introducing a study. D. By defining a concept. 15. What is the passage mainly about? A. The role of my-side bias in enhancing people’s own beliefs. B. The effects of information overload on decision-making process. C. The impact of confirmation bias on interpersonal communication. D. Understanding of confirmation bias and strategies to overcome it. 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。 As a weather presenter, I often hear complaints like, “I hosted my son’s wedding on Saturday, and you told me it would rain, but it didn’t. Why did you get it wrong?” Over my career, forecasting has improved almost beyond recognition. Meteorology (气象学) experts note that a one-day forecast is now correct over 90% of the time. ___16___ A recent survey reveals 37% of British adults don’t trust the weather forecast “very much” or “at all.” So why, with all our wealth of knowledge and powerful forecasting technology, do some people still perceive the weather forecasts as inaccurate? ___17___ In today’s world, we have access to instant information. We can adjust the temperature of our fridges or detect problems with our cars using our smartphones in seconds. So why can’t we find out whether it’s going to rain on our street at 2 pm on Sunday with 100% accuracy? ___18___ Meteorology generates an overwhelming amount of data; it’s difficult to turn it into a brief, attention-grabbing prediction for TV or digital app. It means that even when we are technically correct, some viewers might still be confused. The real challenge lies in the tricky nature of meteorology. ___19___ A slight error as small as 0.01°C in the initial data can produce an entirely different result. It’s important to remember that forecasting is about predicting. The future of weather forecasting may soon be transformed by AI. The advances in AI and forecasting promise exciting possibilities, including the prospect of longer-term, more accurate forecasts. Perhaps one day, I’ll meet a mother asking me to predict weather at her son’s wedding six months from now. ___20___ A. It’s a delicate science. B. Viewers are no longer interested. C. However, there are still gaps in public trust. D. Part of the answer is in our rising expectations. E. And then I might be able to give a better answer. F.

Instead, she typed a question that had been pressing on her heart for weeks: ‌“Why won’t Grandma eat properly?” It was early January. After finishing her exams, Mira had returned to her hometown to spend some quiet days with her grandmother. The old woman had once been a legend — she’d worked as a tailor (裁缝), made dresses for half the village and saved enough to open her own shop. Time had taken its toll. Now her eyesight had dimmed, her fingers trembled, but she was still that legendary woman who lived on her own terms. Whenever someone ladled (用勺子舀) soup into her bowl, she would push it away, murmuring, ‌“I don’t need it. Save it for yourselves.” Every meal played out the same way. It broke Mira’s heart. Actually, the family was doing well. There was plenty of food, plenty of love. So why did eating — a simple, everyday act — seem like a burden to her? She tried reasoning with her, but the more she talked, the more Grandma resisted. Until one day, in a moment of frustration, she blurted out, ‌“Grandma, you make me so sad when you act like this.” The old woman froze, then sighed. ‌“I’m over seventy. I won’t be around much longer. It doesn’t matter how I eat.” The words cut deep. Mira thought about taking her to a psychologist (心理医生) but knew she’d refuse. So she turned to an old companion, the AI. The response came quickly. Grandma was refusing food because she felt like she no longer had a place in the family. The AI offered suggestions: Help her feel secure and needed. 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。 Paragraph 1: With AI’s assistance, Mira began her plan. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As meals became less of a battle, Mira decided to relight the sparkle in grandmother’s eyes. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
