With the help of concierges (员工) at the top luxury hotels in the city, we’ve broken down the best times to visit Toronto for great weather, outdoor adventure, fewer crowds, and more. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Smaller Crowds “Crowds tend to be slightly smaller during March break, when many families go on holiday, and into April. It’s a nice time to visit as there’s still unique Canadian-focused programming like the Maple Festival near the waterfront,” says Ronaldo Breton, chef concierge at The Hazelton Hotel. Because the seasons for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors extend into the spring, sports fans might even be able to catch a game while in town. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Good Weather To enjoy pleasant weather without the peak-season crowds, visit during early or late summer. According to Harry Hollywood, chef concierge at the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, the best months for beautiful weather are June and September, which tend to be mild and pleasant for walking around. Those are also great times for taking advantage of outdoor dining and joining in the seasonal festivities, whether that’s Toronto’s International Jazz Festival in late June or the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in early September. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Lower Prices On a budget? The best time to visit Toronto for lower prices is from December to February. Hollywood encourages travelers to plan ahead to score some excellent deals on air fare and luxury hotels. Despite the more reasonable rates, these months are still really exciting with winter markets and outdoor skating — just make sure you pack plenty of layers to stay warm during this chilly time of year. 21. If a tourist wants to watch a sports match in Toronto, what time might be suitable? A. March to April. B. June and July. C. September and October. D. December to February. 22. Tourists who plan to visit Toronto in winter might enjoy ________. A. outdoor dining and seasonal festivals B. beautiful view of maple leaves C. discounts on airfare and hotels D. warm clothes given by Toronto 23. What is the main focus of the article? A. Famous attractions and cultural activities in Toronto. B. Best times to visit Toronto and related advice. C. Services and facilities of luxury hotels in Toronto. D. Weather characteristics of Toronto in different seasons. B Dr. Jane Goodall’s life represents a journey of both personal and professional transformation. A new exhibition, “Becoming Jane,” celebrates this evolution, showcasing her groundbreaking chimpanzee (黑猩猩) research and her subsequent, decades-long commitment to activism and education. Born in London in 1934, Goodall’s passion for animals led her to Kenya and then, in 1960, to Gombe, Tanzania, to study chimpanzees. Her initial attempts were challenging; the chimps fled at the sight of her. She observed them from a peak using a sighting scope. After months of effort, they finally tolerated her presence, leading to breakthrough moments, like a mother chimp, Flo, allowing her baby, Flint, to approach Jane — a now-legendary encounter captured in a photograph. Her observations revolutionized science. Goodall revealed that chimpanzees were thinking, emotional beings within complex communities, capable of joy, sorrow, and jealousy. Most famously, she documented they could make and use tools, fashioning branches to “fish” for termites (白蚁), a capability previously believed unique to humans. A significant transformation occurred in 1986. At a scientific conference,Goodall learned the global chimpanzee population had sharply reduced from 2 million to about 200,000 due to habitat destruction and hunting. She chose to stop being a passive observer and became a tireless, full-time activist, devoted to global advocacy and conservation. Her activism proved strategic and influential. In 1992, her Jane Goodall Institute established the Tchimpounga Sanctuary (禁猎区) in the Republic of the Congo. She also engaged with researchers in labs where chimps were mistreated, advocating for ethical reforms. The once-shy scientist became a powerful global voice, declaring, “The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Beyond research and sanctuaries, her global youth program, Roots & Shoots, founded in 1991, supports nearly 1. 5 million young people in over 60 countries. Dr. Goodall’s life stands as a powerful proof to how one person’s courageous evolution can inspire a worldwide movement for hope and change. 24. What can we learn about Jane Goodall’s observation of the chimps? A. Like humans, the chimps could handle the tools. B. It was easier for a baby chimp to approach human. C. The chimps were too ready to contact Jane Goodall. D. The chimps recognize human with thinking and emotions. 25. How did Jane Goodall devote herself to chimp conservation? A. Abandoning all field research. B. Focusing on academic writing. C. Using science for strategic advocacy. D. Avoiding organization partnerships. 26. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall? A. Persuasive and decisive. B. Determined and committed. C. Responsible and approachable. D. Forward-thinking and powerful. 27. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The transformation of Jane Goodall’s career. B. The bond between Jane Goodall’s life and career. C. The impact of Jane Goodall’s research on science. D. The global conservation efforts led by Jane Goodall. C （新热点）The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally meaning “picture character”. Emoji s are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings. When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3, 000 emojis that expand upon the way in which we communicate. It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language. People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can “see” your facial expression while reading your words. Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words. For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation. The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature. A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare’s popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare’s plays. As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures, and forget how to write properly. On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial “language”. But, for now, maybe it’s best that we just enjoy using them. 28. What is an advantage of emoji according to the text? A. It is convenient to write down. B. It has an emotional touch. C. It makes message-reading harder. D. It can help repair friendship. 29. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Shakespeare? A. To show the widespread application of emojis. B. To give a brief account of emojis’ functions. C. To recommend the adaptations of classics. D. To honor the famous English playwriter. 30. What does the underlined part “pop up” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Break B. Lack. C. Appear. D. Die. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards the current use of emojis? A. Objective. B. Concerned. C. Negative. D. Favorable. D （新热点）As universities hold graduation ceremonies this summer, many new degree holders face a challenging reality. While they hope to start their careers, a tight job market may extend their search. Recent data indicates a significant drop in opportunities for graduates, with one report showing a 33% decrease in listed jobs compared to last year — the lowest level since 2018. Two main factors explain this trend. First, general economic uncertainty has made employers more cautious about hiring. Second, and more specifically, opportunities in professional fields — such as law, finance, and consulting — are shrinking particularly fast. Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to change the nature of entry-level work. Tasks that once helped young graduates learn, like data gathering and basic analysis, are now often handled by AI. Some companies report using AI for most routine work, while others hire fewer graduates, expecting AI to improve efficiency. This situation creates serious difficulties for graduates. Many enter the job market during a period of slower economic growth and carry large student debts. A weak job market at the start of their careers could have long-term effects. Additionally, AI is changing the hiring process. Some companies now use software to screen job applications first, which might accidentally filter out good candidates. If companies focus only on cutting costs now and ignore the need to train young talent, it could create unfairness between generations. Government and business leaders are aware of the issue. Officials encourage people to learn AI skills and plan training programs. However, more focus is needed on helping young people enter today’s digital workplace. The decline in traditional starter jobs should be a clear warning. For the country’s future, the energy and skills of this generation are too valuable to waste. Companies may need to redesign early career paths, and governments should support this transition. Technological progress should not come at the cost of leaving young people behind. Their success is essential for shaping tomorrow’s world. 32. According to the first paragraph, what indicates a tough job market for new graduates? A. Listed job opportunities have seen a significant yearly decline. B. Many graduates choose to extend their search in job hunting. C. Employers are showing less interest in graduates from certain majors. D. The average time to find a job has shortened compared to last year. 33. Why are opportunities shrinking faster in fields like law and finance? A. Because global competition has knocked out most companies in these fields. B. Because graduates show no interest in these fields anymore. C. Because the government has adopted stricter regulations on these industries. D. Because artificial intelligence is taking over many entry-level tasks. 34. What does the author imply about the solution to the challenges? A. It depends solely on graduates’ own efforts to learn new skills. B. It will be automatically solved as the economy improves over time. C. It requires a joint effort from both businesses and the government. D. It has already been effectively solved through training programs. 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 （新语境）The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before: changes for the better, changes for the worse; changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that put man in danger. _____35_____ Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views.

The application of and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. _____38_____ Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used, the result could have been the rain of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals. William Shakespeare said, “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn (纱线), good and ill together. “_____39_____ But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the good? Are we biologically programmed for war? A. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons. B. Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. C. Fortunately, science has brought us with the greatest D. It offers us less access to nature as well as social life. E. The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities—science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. F. Many things caused the changes, but in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 The famous marshmallow (棉花糖) test, where children were given the choice between eating one marshmallow immediately or waiting for two later, may have revealed more than just willpower — it might help explain why some people maintain sharper cognitive function as they age. A recent research suggests that the ability to delay satisfaction could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems. Think of your brain as a muscle that gets stronger with practice. Every time you choose a long-term benefit over immediate pleasure, you’re essentially doing a mental workout. This workout engages particularly the brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges. Regularly exercising self-control may help maintain cognitive function. The science behind this connection is fascinating. When we resist immediate rewards, we stimulate “cool” regulation strategies in the rational (理性的) reasoning center of decision-making. In contrast, giving in to immediate satisfaction typically involves “hot” strategies in the brain areas associated with emotional decision-making. The more we practice using these “cool” strategies, the stronger our brain pathways become. This could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. The good news is that these skills can be developed at any age. Simple strategies like setting specific goals, creating detailed action plans, and using monitoring techniques can help. Also, physical activity plays a particularly important role. Remember, it’s never too late to start building these protective cognitive skills. The key is consistent practice and a conscious (有意识的) effort to make choices that prioritize long-term benefits over immediate rewards. 40. According to the recent research, what could the ability to delay satisfaction help? ______________________________________________________ 41. Which brain area does delayed satisfaction particularly work out? ______________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. As we grow older, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. ______________________________________________________ 43. Please share one of your experiences of delayed satisfaction. （In about 40words） ______________________________________________________ 第二节（20分） 假设你是红星中学学生会主席李华。下周你校将组织同学们到附近社区为大兴区“创城”做志愿活动。你校交换生 Chris 打算参加这项活动，发来邮件咨询，请你给他回复一封邮件，内容包括： 1.活动安排； 2.活动意义。 注意： 1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 提示词：创城 build a civilized city Dear Chris, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua （请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内） 试卷第1页，共3页 4/10 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年高二英语下学期第一次月考卷02（北京专用） （考试时间：90分钟 试卷满分：100分） 全解全析 考生注意： 1. 答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 3. 难度系数：0.65。 4. 考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分：知识运用（共两节，30分） 第一节 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 （原创题） After graduating from high school, Lin Tao stood at a crossroads, unsure which path to take.

With the help of concierges (员工) at the top luxury hotels in the city, we’ve broken down the best times to visit Toronto for great weather, outdoor adventure, fewer crowds, and more. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Smaller Crowds “Crowds tend to be slightly smaller during March break, when many families go on holiday, and into April. It’s a nice time to visit as there’s still unique Canadian-focused programming like the Maple Festival near the waterfront,” says Ronaldo Breton, chef concierge at The Hazelton Hotel. Because the seasons for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors extend into the spring, sports fans might even be able to catch a game while in town. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Good Weather To enjoy pleasant weather without the peak-season crowds, visit during early or late summer. According to Harry Hollywood, chef concierge at the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, the best months for beautiful weather are June and September, which tend to be mild and pleasant for walking around. Those are also great times for taking advantage of outdoor dining and joining in the seasonal festivities, whether that’s Toronto’s International Jazz Festival in late June or the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in early September. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Lower Prices On a budget? The best time to visit Toronto for lower prices is from December to February. Hollywood encourages travelers to plan ahead to score some excellent deals on air fare and luxury hotels. Despite the more reasonable rates, these months are still really exciting with winter markets and outdoor skating — just make sure you pack plenty of layers to stay warm during this chilly time of year. 21. If a tourist wants to watch a sports match in Toronto, what time might be suitable? A. March to April. B. June and July. C. September and October. D. December to February. 22.

It’s a nice time to visit as there’s still unique Canadian-focused programming like the Maple Festival near the waterfront,” says Ronaldo Breton, chef concierge at The Hazelton Hotel. Because the seasons for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors extend into the spring, sports fans might even be able to catch a game while in town.(“在三月春假期间，人群往往会稍显稀少，因为许多家庭会外出度假，这种情况一直持续到四月。这是一个不错的游览时间，因为仍有独具加拿大特色的活动，比如滨水区附近的枫糖节。”黑兹尔顿酒店的首席礼宾员Ronaldo Breton说道。由于多伦多枫叶队和多伦多猛龙队的赛季会延续到春季，体育迷们甚至有可能在到访这座城市时观看一场比赛)”可知，三月春假到四月期间，人群相对较少，且多伦多枫叶队和多伦多猛龙队的赛季会延续到春季，所以体育迷有可能在这个时间段观看比赛。故选A。 22. 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“On a budget? The best time to visit Toronto for lower prices is from December to February. Hollywood encourages travelers to plan ahead to score some excellent deals on air fare and luxury hotels. (预算有限？前往多伦多享受较低价格的最佳时间是12月至次年2月。Hollywood鼓励游客提前规划，以便在机票和豪华酒店方面获得一些超值优惠)”可知，冬季（12月至次年2月）前往多伦多旅游，游客可能享受到机票和酒店折扣。故选C。 23. 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“With the help of concierges (员工) at the top luxury hotels in the city, we’ve broken down the best times to visit Toronto for great weather, outdoor adventure, fewer crowds, and more.(在这座城市顶级豪华酒店员工的帮助下，我们梳理出了游览多伦多的最佳时机，以便享受宜人天气、参与户外探险、避开拥挤人群等等)”以及全文内容可知，文章分别从避开拥挤人群、享受宜人天气、享受较低价格等方面阐述了游览多伦多的最佳时间，并给出了相关建议，如冬季提前规划获取优惠等，所以文章主要聚焦于介绍多伦多的最佳旅行时间和相关建议。故选B。 B Dr. Jane Goodall’s life represents a journey of both personal and professional transformation. A new exhibition, “Becoming Jane,” celebrates this evolution, showcasing her groundbreaking chimpanzee (黑猩猩) research and her subsequent, decades-long commitment to activism and education. Born in London in 1934, Goodall’s passion for animals led her to Kenya and then, in 1960, to Gombe, Tanzania, to study chimpanzees. Her initial attempts were challenging; the chimps fled at the sight of her. She observed them from a peak using a sighting scope. After months of effort, they finally tolerated her presence, leading to breakthrough moments, like a mother chimp, Flo, allowing her baby, Flint, to approach Jane — a now-legendary encounter captured in a photograph. Her observations revolutionized science. Goodall revealed that chimpanzees were thinking, emotional beings within complex communities, capable of joy, sorrow, and jealousy. Most famously, she documented they could make and use tools, fashioning branches to “fish” for termites (白蚁), a capability previously believed unique to humans. A significant transformation occurred in 1986. At a scientific conference,Goodall learned the global chimpanzee population had sharply reduced from 2 million to about 200,000 due to habitat destruction and hunting. She chose to stop being a passive observer and became a tireless, full-time activist, devoted to global advocacy and conservation. Her activism proved strategic and influential. In 1992, her Jane Goodall Institute established the Tchimpounga Sanctuary (禁猎区) in the Republic of the Congo. She also engaged with researchers in labs where chimps were mistreated, advocating for ethical reforms. The once-shy scientist became a powerful global voice, declaring, “The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Beyond research and sanctuaries, her global youth program, Roots & Shoots, founded in 1991, supports nearly 1. 5 million young people in over 60 countries. Dr. Goodall’s life stands as a powerful proof to how one person’s courageous evolution can inspire a worldwide movement for hope and change. 24. What can we learn about Jane Goodall’s observation of the chimps? A. Like humans, the chimps could handle the tools. B. It was easier for a baby chimp to approach human. C. The chimps were too ready to contact Jane Goodall. D. The chimps recognize human with thinking and emotions. 25. How did Jane Goodall devote herself to chimp conservation? A. Abandoning all field research. B. Focusing on academic writing. C. Using science for strategic advocacy. D. Avoiding organization partnerships. 26. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall? A. Persuasive and decisive. B. Determined and committed. C. Responsible and approachable. D. Forward-thinking and powerful. 27. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The transformation of Jane Goodall’s career. B. The bond between Jane Goodall’s life and career. C. The impact of Jane Goodall’s research on science. D. The global conservation efforts led by Jane Goodall. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了简·古道尔从一个动物爱好者到科学家，再到全球保护活动家的职业和个人转变过程。 24. 细节理解题。根据第三段“Most famously, she documented they could make and use tools, fashioning branches to “fish” for termites (白蚁), a capability previously believed unique to humans.(最著名的是，她记录了它们可以制造和使用工具，用树枝“钓”白蚁，这种能力以前被认为是人类独有的。)”可知，简·古道尔发现黑猩猩像人类一样可以处理工具。故选A。 25. 细节理解题。根据第五段“Her activism proved strategic and influential. In 1992, her Jane Goodall Institute established the Tchimpounga Sanctuary (禁猎区) in the Republic of the Congo. She also engaged with researchers in labs where chimps were mistreated, advocating for ethical reforms. The once-shy scientist became a powerful global voice, declaring, “The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves”.(她的激进主义被证明是有战略意义和影响力的。1992年，她的简·古道尔研究所在刚果共和国建立了奇蓬加保护区。她还与虐待黑猩猩的实验室的研究人员接触，倡导道德改革。这位曾经害羞的科学家成为了全球有力的声音，宣称“我至少能为那些不能为自己说话的人发声”。)”可知，简·古道尔利用科学进行战略宣传来致力于黑猩猩保护。故选C。 26. 推理判断题。根据第二段“Her initial attempts were challenging; the chimps fled at the sight of her. (她最初的尝试充满挑战：黑猩猩一见到她就四散逃跑。)”和“After months of effort, they finally tolerated her presence, leading to breakthrough moments, like a mother chimp, Flo, allowing her baby, Flint, to approach Jane — a now-legendary encounter captured in a photograph. (经过数月的努力，黑猩猩终于容忍了她的存在，这也带来了突破性的时刻 —— 比如黑猩猩母亲弗洛允许自己的孩子弗林特靠近简，这一如今堪称传奇的相遇被一张照片定格下来。)”可知，简·古道尔在观察黑猩猩时遇到的困难，但她没有放弃，经过几个月的努力，黑猩猩终于容忍了她的存在，这体现了她的“坚定”；根据第四段“At a scientific conference, Goodall learned the global chimpanzee population had sharply reduced from 2 million to about 200,000 due to habitat destruction and hunting. She chose to stop being a passive observer and became a tireless, full-time activist, devoted to global advocacy and conservation. (在一次科学会议上，古道尔得知：由于栖息地遭到破坏以及人类捕猎，全球黑猩猩数量从200万只锐减至约20万只。她选择不再做一名被动的观察者，而是成为一位不知疲倦的全职活动家，致力于全球范围内的动物保护与宣传工作。)”简·古道尔在得知黑猩猩数量急剧减少后，选择停止做一个被动的观察者，成为了一个不知疲倦的全职活动家，致力于全球宣传和保护，这体现了她的“专注”，所以“坚定和专注”最能描述简·古道尔。故选B。 27. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Dr. Jane Goodall’s life represents a journey of both personal and professional transformation. A new exhibition, “Becoming Jane,” celebrates this evolution, showcasing her groundbreaking chimpanzee (黑猩猩) research and her subsequent, decades-long commitment to activism and education.(简·古道尔博士的一生代表了个人和职业的转变之旅。一个新的展览“成为简”庆祝这一演变，展示了她开创性的黑猩猩研究以及她随后数十年对激进主义和教育的承诺。)”可知，本文主要讲述了简·古道尔职业生涯的转变。故选A。 C （新热点）The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally meaning “picture character”. Emoji s are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings. When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3, 000 emojis that expand upon the way in which we communicate. It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language. People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can “see” your facial expression while reading your words. Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words. For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation. The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature. A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare’s popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare’s plays. As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures, and forget how to write properly. On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial “language”. But, for now, maybe it’s best that we just enjoy using them. 28. What is an advantage of emoji according to the text? A. It is convenient to write down. B. It has an emotional touch. C. It makes message-reading harder. D. It can help repair friendship. 29. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Shakespeare? A. To show the widespread application of emojis. B. To give a brief account of emojis’ functions. C. To recommend the adaptations of classics. D. To honor the famous English playwriter. 30. What does the underlined part “pop up” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Break B. Lack. C. Appear. D. Die. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards the current use of emojis? A. Objective. B. Concerned. C. Negative. D. Favorable. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. A 【解析】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了emoji的起源、发展、优势、应用以及人们对emoji使用的不同看法。 28. 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language. People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use.(emoji似乎相较于书面语言有着明显的优势。人们喜欢它们，是因为它们增添了情感意义，且使用快捷方便。)”可知，人们喜欢emoji是因为它们增加了情感意义，即emoji具有情感色彩。故选B。 29. 细节理解题。根据文章第三段“The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature. A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare’s popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis.(emoji的使用甚至已经延伸到了古典文学中。一套面向年轻读者的莎士比亚系列读物，选取了威廉·莎士比亚的流行剧目，并用文本语言和emoji替换了其中的一些词语。)”可知，作者提到莎士比亚的作品是为了说明emoji的广泛应用。故选A。 30. 词句猜测题。根据划线单词所在句以及下一句“As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves.(我们可以看到，emoji……所有地方。使用emoji的用户表示，它们促进了我们的交流和表达方式。)”以及上文内容可知，emoji得到了广泛的使用可推测，划线部分“pop up”应该是指“出现”的意思。选项C“appear(出现)”与此相符。故选C。 31. 推理判断题。根据文章全文内容可知，文章提到emoji优势，如增加情感意义、易于使用等，同时也提到了教育工作者对emoji使用的担忧，即人们可能会丧失用文字或口头语言正确交流的能力。但文章最后说“But, for now, maybe it’s best that we just enjoy using them(但就目前而言，也许我们最好还是享受使用它们的乐趣吧)”，这表明作者并没有完全站在担忧或消极的角度，也没有完全支持emoji的使用，而是持有一种相对中立、客观的态度。故选A。 D （新热点）As universities hold graduation ceremonies this summer, many new degree holders face a challenging reality. While they hope to start their careers, a tight job market may extend their search. Recent data indicates a significant drop in opportunities for graduates, with one report showing a 33% decrease in listed jobs compared to last year — the lowest level since 2018. Two main factors explain this trend. First, general economic uncertainty has made employers more cautious about hiring. Second, and more specifically, opportunities in professional fields — such as law, finance, and consulting — are shrinking particularly fast. Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to change the nature of entry-level work. Tasks that once helped young graduates learn, like data gathering and basic analysis, are now often handled by AI. Some companies report using AI for most routine work, while others hire fewer graduates, expecting AI to improve efficiency. This situation creates serious difficulties for graduates. Many enter the job market during a period of slower economic growth and carry large student debts. A weak job market at the start of their careers could have long-term effects. Additionally, AI is changing the hiring process. Some companies now use software to screen job applications first, which might accidentally filter out good candidates. If companies focus only on cutting costs now and ignore the need to train young talent, it could create unfairness between generations. Government and business leaders are aware of the issue. Officials encourage people to learn AI skills and plan training programs. However, more focus is needed on helping young people enter today’s digital workplace. The decline in traditional starter jobs should be a clear warning. For the country’s future, the energy and skills of this generation are too valuable to waste. Companies may need to redesign early career paths, and governments should support this transition. Technological progress should not come at the cost of leaving young people behind. Their success is essential for shaping tomorrow’s world. 32. According to the first paragraph, what indicates a tough job market for new graduates? A. Listed job opportunities have seen a significant yearly decline. B. Many graduates choose to extend their search in job hunting. C. Employers are showing less interest in graduates from certain majors. D. The average time to find a job has shortened compared to last year. 33. Why are opportunities shrinking faster in fields like law and finance? A. Because global competition has knocked out most companies in these fields. B. Because graduates show no interest in these fields anymore. C. Because the government has adopted stricter regulations on these industries. D. Because artificial intelligence is taking over many entry-level tasks. 34. What does the author imply about the solution to the challenges? A. It depends solely on graduates’ own efforts to learn new skills. B. It will be automatically solved as the economy improves over time. C. It requires a joint effort from both businesses and the government. D. It has already been effectively solved through training programs. 【答案】32. A 33. D 34. C 【解析】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了今夏毕业生就业市场严峻，岗位数大降，主因是经济不明朗和 AI 取代入门级工作。毕业生面临多重就业难题，作者认为需企业和政府携手应对，不让技术发展落下年轻人。 32. 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Recent data indicates a significant drop in opportunities for graduates, with one report showing a 33% decrease in listed jobs compared to last year—the lowest level since 2018.( 近期的数据表明，毕业生的就业机会大幅减少，有一份报告显示，与去年相比，列出的工作岗位数量减少了 33%——这是自 2018 年以来的最低水平。)”可知，新列出的工作机会每年都有显著减少表明新毕业人员的就业市场形势严峻。故选A项。 33. 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Second, and more specifically, opportunities in professional fields—such as law, finance, and consulting—are shrinking particularly fast. Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to change the nature of entry-level work. Tasks that once helped young graduates learn, like data gathering and basic analysis, are now often handled by AI.( 其次，更具体地说，专业领域的机会——如法律、金融和咨询——正在以特别快的速度缩减。人工智能（AI）开始改变初级工作的性质。曾经有助于年轻毕业生学习的任务，如数据收集和基本分析，现在往往由 AI 来完成。)”可知，法律、金融等领域岗位快速缩减的核心原因是人工智能接管了该领域大量入门级工作（如数据收集、基础分析）。故选D项。 34. 推理判断题。根据第四段中“Companies may need to redesign early career paths, and governments should support this transition. Technological progress should not come at the cost of leaving young people behind. Their success is essential for shaping tomorrow’s world.( 企业可能需要重新设计早期职业路径，而政府应当支持这一转变。技术进步不应以将年轻人抛在后面为代价。他们的成功对于塑造未来的世界至关重要。)”可推知，对于这些挑战的解决方案作者认为需要企业和政府的共同努力。故选C项。 第二节 （共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 （新语境）The twentieth century saw greater changes than any century before: changes for the better, changes for the worse; changes that brought a lot of benefits to human beings, changes that put man in danger. _____35_____ Scientific research in physics and biology has vastly broadened our views. It has given us a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter and of the universe, _____36_____. Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life. The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will result in even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science—a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning: in applied science—a more reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment. _____37_____ The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind. The application of and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. _____38_____ Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used, the result could have been the rain of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals. William Shakespeare said, “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn (纱线), good and ill together. “_____39_____ But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the good? Are we biologically programmed for war? A. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons. B. Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. C. Fortunately, science has brought us with the greatest D. It offers us less access to nature as well as social life. E. The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities—science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. F. Many things caused the changes, but in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science. G. It has brought us a better understanding of the nature of life and of its continuous development. 【答案】35. F 36. G 37. B 38. A 39. E 【解析】本文是说明文，文章介绍了在21 世纪，科学有了很大的进步。科学研究极大地开阔了我们的视野，给人类带来了更大的好处。但另一方面科学的创造力也被用来损害人类。 35. 此题线索是词汇复现。该段首句提到“The twentieth century saw greater changes…”，该段的主题是关于本世纪的种种变化；选项F意思为：许多事情导致了变化，但在我看来，最重要的是科学的进步。选项F是顺承上文的话题，其中the changes与上文中多次出现的changes是词汇复现。故选F项。 36. 此题线索是代词指代和并列句式。选项G意思为：它使我们对生命本质及其不断发展有了更好的理解。选项G中“It has brought us a better understanding of …”与上一句中的“It has given us a deeper knowledge of…”是句式并列，其中it都是指代该段首句中的Scientific research in physics and biology。故选G项。 37. 此题线索是逻辑。文章第二段首句提到“科学研究使我们扩大视野”，第三段首句提到“科学研究活动将给人类带来更大的好处”；第四段空后一句提到“科学的创新被用来损害人类”，该段话题与文章上两段的话题出现转折；选项B意思为：然而，不幸的是，事情还有另一面。选项B中however表示话题出现转折，是承上启下。 故选B项。 38. 该段话题是科学创新被利用来损害人类。选项A意思为：我们已经在核武器的问题上看到了这种情况。空前一句提到“发展和生产大规模毁灭性武器对人类的继续生存造成了危险”，选项A是顺承上一句的话题，以核武器为例进一步说明上一句的内容。故选A项。 39. 此题线索是词汇重现。选项E意思为：以上对人类活动——科学应用的仅仅一部分的简要回顾似乎证明了莎士比亚所说的。选项E中“what Shakespeare said”即是上一句中“William Shakespeare said”的复现。故选E项。 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 The famous marshmallow (棉花糖) test, where children were given the choice between eating one marshmallow immediately or waiting for two later, may have revealed more than just willpower — it might help explain why some people maintain sharper cognitive function as they age. A recent research suggests that the ability to delay satisfaction could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems. Think of your brain as a muscle that gets stronger with practice. Every time you choose a long-term benefit over immediate pleasure, you’re essentially doing a mental workout. This workout engages particularly the brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges. Regularly exercising self-control may help maintain cognitive function. The science behind this connection is fascinating. When we resist immediate rewards, we stimulate “cool” regulation strategies in the rational (理性的) reasoning center of decision-making. In contrast, giving in to immediate satisfaction typically involves “hot” strategies in the brain areas associated with emotional decision-making. The more we practice using these “cool” strategies, the stronger our brain pathways become. This could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. The good news is that these skills can be developed at any age. Simple strategies like setting specific goals, creating detailed action plans, and using monitoring techniques can help. Also, physical activity plays a particularly important role. Remember, it’s never too late to start building these protective cognitive skills. The key is consistent practice and a conscious (有意识的) effort to make choices that prioritize long-term benefits over immediate rewards. 40. According to the recent research, what could the ability to delay satisfaction help? ______________________________________________________ 41. Which brain area does delayed satisfaction particularly work out? ______________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. As we grow older, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. ______________________________________________________ 43. Please share one of your experiences of delayed satisfaction. （In about 40words） ______________________________________________________ 【答案】40. It could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems. 41. The brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges. 42. As we grow older, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. At any age, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. 43. One possible version: When I was learning to play the guitar, I was eager to play songs well quickly but failed many times. I resisted the urge to give up, practiced basic chords every day, and finally played my favorite song a month later. That experience taught me the value of delayed satisfaction. 【解析】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了延迟满足感可以帮助保护人们不出现记忆或思维问题。 40. 考查细节理解。根据第一段“A recent research suggests that the ability to delay satisfaction could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems.(最近的一项研究表明，延迟满足感的能力可以帮助保护人们不出现记忆或思维问题。)”可知，延迟满足感的能力可以帮助保护人们不出现记忆或思维问题。故答案为It could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems.。 41. 考查细节理解。根据第二段“This workout engages particularly the brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges.(这种锻炼特别涉及到负责计划、推理和控制冲动的大脑区域。)”可知，延迟满足感特别锻炼负责计划、推理和控制冲动的大脑区域。故答案为The brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges.。 42. 考查推理判断。根据第四段“The good news is that these skills can be developed at any age.(好消息是，这些技能可以在任何年龄培养。)”可知，好消息是，在任何年龄，我们都可以加强我们的大脑通路，这有助于延缓或防止记忆丧失或思维问题。故As we grow older错误，应改为At any age。故答案为As we grow older, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. At any age, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems.。 43. 考查开放性试题。根据第一段“A recent research suggests that the ability to delay satisfaction could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems.(最近的一项研究表明，延迟满足感的能力可以帮助保护人们不出现记忆或思维问题。)”结合自己延迟满足感的经历，讲述一件延迟满足感的事情。所以答案可以为：When I was learning to play the guitar, I was eager to play songs well quickly but failed many times. I resisted the urge to give up, practiced basic chords every day, and finally played my favorite song a month later. That experience taught me the value of delayed satisfaction.（开放性试题，答案合理即可） 第二节（20分） 假设你是红星中学学生会主席李华。下周你校将组织同学们到附近社区为大兴区“创城”做志愿活动。你校交换生 Chris 打算参加这项活动，发来邮件咨询，请你给他回复一封邮件，内容包括： 1.活动安排； 2.活动意义。 注意： 1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 提示词：创城 build a civilized city Dear Chris, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear Chris, I am delighted to hear that you are interested in the voluntary activity for building a civilized city next week.

With the help of concierges (员工) at the top luxury hotels in the city, we’ve broken down the best times to visit Toronto for great weather, outdoor adventure, fewer crowds, and more. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Smaller Crowds “Crowds tend to be slightly smaller during March break, when many families go on holiday, and into April. It’s a nice time to visit as there’s still unique Canadian-focused programming like the Maple Festival near the waterfront,” says Ronaldo Breton, chef concierge at The Hazelton Hotel. Because the seasons for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Toronto Raptors extend into the spring, sports fans might even be able to catch a game while in town. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Good Weather To enjoy pleasant weather without the peak-season crowds, visit during early or late summer. According to Harry Hollywood, chef concierge at the Four Seasons Hotel Toronto, the best months for beautiful weather are June and September, which tend to be mild and pleasant for walking around. Those are also great times for taking advantage of outdoor dining and joining in the seasonal festivities, whether that’s Toronto’s International Jazz Festival in late June or the Toronto International Film Festival (TIFF) in early September. Best Times to Visit Toronto for Lower Prices On a budget? The best time to visit Toronto for lower prices is from December to February. Hollywood encourages travelers to plan ahead to score some excellent deals on air fare and luxury hotels. Despite the more reasonable rates, these months are still really exciting with winter markets and outdoor skating — just make sure you pack plenty of layers to stay warm during this chilly time of year. 21. If a tourist wants to watch a sports match in Toronto, what time might be suitable? A. March to April. B. June and July. C. September and October. D. December to February. 22. Tourists who plan to visit Toronto in winter might enjoy ________. A. outdoor dining and seasonal festivals B. beautiful view of maple leaves C. discounts on airfare and hotels D. warm clothes given by Toronto 23. What is the main focus of the article? A. Famous attractions and cultural activities in Toronto. B. Best times to visit Toronto and related advice. C. Services and facilities of luxury hotels in Toronto. D. Weather characteristics of Toronto in different seasons. B Dr. Jane Goodall’s life represents a journey of both personal and professional transformation. A new exhibition, “Becoming Jane,” celebrates this evolution, showcasing her groundbreaking chimpanzee (黑猩猩) research and her subsequent, decades-long commitment to activism and education. Born in London in 1934, Goodall’s passion for animals led her to Kenya and then, in 1960, to Gombe, Tanzania, to study chimpanzees. Her initial attempts were challenging; the chimps fled at the sight of her. She observed them from a peak using a sighting scope. After months of effort, they finally tolerated her presence, leading to breakthrough moments, like a mother chimp, Flo, allowing her baby, Flint, to approach Jane — a now-legendary encounter captured in a photograph. Her observations revolutionized science. Goodall revealed that chimpanzees were thinking, emotional beings within complex communities, capable of joy, sorrow, and jealousy. Most famously, she documented they could make and use tools, fashioning branches to “fish” for termites (白蚁), a capability previously believed unique to humans. A significant transformation occurred in 1986. At a scientific conference,Goodall learned the global chimpanzee population had sharply reduced from 2 million to about 200,000 due to habitat destruction and hunting. She chose to stop being a passive observer and became a tireless, full-time activist, devoted to global advocacy and conservation. Her activism proved strategic and influential. In 1992, her Jane Goodall Institute established the Tchimpounga Sanctuary (禁猎区) in the Republic of the Congo. She also engaged with researchers in labs where chimps were mistreated, advocating for ethical reforms. The once-shy scientist became a powerful global voice, declaring, “The least I can do is speak out for those who cannot speak for themselves.” Beyond research and sanctuaries, her global youth program, Roots & Shoots, founded in 1991, supports nearly 1. 5 million young people in over 60 countries. Dr. Goodall’s life stands as a powerful proof to how one person’s courageous evolution can inspire a worldwide movement for hope and change. 24. What can we learn about Jane Goodall’s observation of the chimps? A. Like humans, the chimps could handle the tools. B. It was easier for a baby chimp to approach human. C. The chimps were too ready to contact Jane Goodall. D. The chimps recognize human with thinking and emotions. 25. How did Jane Goodall devote herself to chimp conservation? A. Abandoning all field research. B. Focusing on academic writing. C. Using science for strategic advocacy. D. Avoiding organization partnerships. 26. Which of the following can best describe Jane Goodall? A. Persuasive and decisive. B. Determined and committed. C. Responsible and approachable. D. Forward-thinking and powerful. 27. What would be the best title for the passage? A. The transformation of Jane Goodall’s career. B. The bond between Jane Goodall’s life and career. C. The impact of Jane Goodall’s research on science. D. The global conservation efforts led by Jane Goodall. C （新热点）The word “emoji” comes from Japanese, literally meaning “picture character”. Emoji s are small symbols representing ideas, emotions or feelings. When first introduced in Japan in 1999, emojis were limited to 176 simple designs. Now there are more than 3, 000 emojis that expand upon the way in which we communicate. It seems that emojis have clear advantages over written language. People like them because they add emotional meaning, and are quick and easy to use. With a smiling or sad face added to a message or post, your reader can “see” your facial expression while reading your words. Emojis can also help people express their feelings when they cannot find the appropriate words. For instance, if your friend is moving across the country, you may just send them a string of crying faces to express your sadness over your separation. The use of emojis has even spread to classical literature. A Shakespeare series for young readers has taken William Shakespeare’s popular plays and replaced some words with textspeak and emojis. The intention of these adaptations is to make the classics more accessible to young readers. Some people, however, believe that these new versions have taken away the heart and soul of Shakespeare’s plays. As we can see, emojis have a tendency to pop up all over the place. Users of emojis say that they facilitate the way in which we communicate and express ourselves. But this makes others, especially educators, worry that we are losing the ability to communicate properly using the written word, or even the spoken word. Perhaps people will one day choose to communicate in pictures, and forget how to write properly. On that day, emojis will have become a real pictorial “language”. But, for now, maybe it’s best that we just enjoy using them. 28. What is an advantage of emoji according to the text? A. It is convenient to write down. B. It has an emotional touch. C. It makes message-reading harder. D. It can help repair friendship. 29. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Shakespeare? A. To show the widespread application of emojis. B. To give a brief account of emojis’ functions. C. To recommend the adaptations of classics. D. To honor the famous English playwriter. 30. What does the underlined part “pop up” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Break B. Lack. C. Appear. D. Die. 31. What is the writer’s attitude towards the current use of emojis? A. Objective. B. Concerned. C. Negative. D. Favorable. D （新热点）As universities hold graduation ceremonies this summer, many new degree holders face a challenging reality. While they hope to start their careers, a tight job market may extend their search. Recent data indicates a significant drop in opportunities for graduates, with one report showing a 33% decrease in listed jobs compared to last year — the lowest level since 2018. Two main factors explain this trend. First, general economic uncertainty has made employers more cautious about hiring. Second, and more specifically, opportunities in professional fields — such as law, finance, and consulting — are shrinking particularly fast. Artificial intelligence (AI) is beginning to change the nature of entry-level work. Tasks that once helped young graduates learn, like data gathering and basic analysis, are now often handled by AI. Some companies report using AI for most routine work, while others hire fewer graduates, expecting AI to improve efficiency. This situation creates serious difficulties for graduates. Many enter the job market during a period of slower economic growth and carry large student debts. A weak job market at the start of their careers could have long-term effects. Additionally, AI is changing the hiring process. Some companies now use software to screen job applications first, which might accidentally filter out good candidates. If companies focus only on cutting costs now and ignore the need to train young talent, it could create unfairness between generations. Government and business leaders are aware of the issue. Officials encourage people to learn AI skills and plan training programs. However, more focus is needed on helping young people enter today’s digital workplace. The decline in traditional starter jobs should be a clear warning. For the country’s future, the energy and skills of this generation are too valuable to waste. Companies may need to redesign early career paths, and governments should support this transition. Technological progress should not come at the cost of leaving young people behind. Their success is essential for shaping tomorrow’s world. 32. According to the first paragraph, what indicates a tough job market for new graduates? A. Listed job opportunities have seen a significant yearly decline. B. Many graduates choose to extend their search in job hunting. C. Employers are showing less interest in graduates from certain majors. D. The average time to find a job has shortened compared to last year. 33. Why are opportunities shrinking faster in fields like law and finance? A. Because global competition has knocked out most companies in these fields. B. Because graduates show no interest in these fields anymore. C. Because the government has adopted stricter regulations on these industries. D. Because artificial intelligence is taking over many entry-level tasks. 34. What does the author imply about the solution to the challenges? A.

It has given us a deeper knowledge of the structure of matter and of the universe, _____36_____. Technology in the application of science has made big advances that have benefited us in nearly every part of life. The continuation of such activities in the twenty-first century will result in even greater advantages to human beings: in pure science—a wider and deeper knowledge in all fields of learning: in applied science—a more reasonable sharing of material benefits, and better protection of the environment. _____37_____ The creativity of science has been employed in doing damage to mankind. The application of and technology to the development and production of weapons of mass destruction has created a real danger to the continued existence of the human race on this planet. _____38_____ Although their actual use has so far occurred only in the Second World War, the number of nuclear weapons that were produced and made ready for use was so large that if the weapons had actually been used, the result could have been the rain of the human race, as well as of many kinds of animals. William Shakespeare said, “The web of our life is of a mingled yarn (纱线), good and ill together. “_____39_____ But does it have to be so? Must the ill always go together with the good? Are we biologically programmed for war? A. We have seen this happen in the case of nuclear weapons. B. Sadly, however, there is another side to the picture. C. Fortunately, science has brought us with the greatest D. It offers us less access to nature as well as social life. E. The above brief review of the application of only one part of human activities—science seems to prove what Shakespeare said. F. Many things caused the changes, but in my opinion, the most important was the progress in science. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 The famous marshmallow (棉花糖) test, where children were given the choice between eating one marshmallow immediately or waiting for two later, may have revealed more than just willpower — it might help explain why some people maintain sharper cognitive function as they age. A recent research suggests that the ability to delay satisfaction could help protect people from developing memory or thinking problems. Think of your brain as a muscle that gets stronger with practice. Every time you choose a long-term benefit over immediate pleasure, you’re essentially doing a mental workout. This workout engages particularly the brain area that is responsible for planning, reasoning, and controlling urges. Regularly exercising self-control may help maintain cognitive function. The science behind this connection is fascinating. When we resist immediate rewards, we stimulate “cool” regulation strategies in the rational (理性的) reasoning center of decision-making. In contrast, giving in to immediate satisfaction typically involves “hot” strategies in the brain areas associated with emotional decision-making. The more we practice using these “cool” strategies, the stronger our brain pathways become. This could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. The good news is that these skills can be developed at any age. Simple strategies like setting specific goals, creating detailed action plans, and using monitoring techniques can help. Also, physical activity plays a particularly important role. Remember, it’s never too late to start building these protective cognitive skills. The key is consistent practice and a conscious (有意识的) effort to make choices that prioritize long-term benefits over immediate rewards. 40. According to the recent research, what could the ability to delay satisfaction help? ______________________________________________________ 41. Which brain area does delayed satisfaction particularly work out? ______________________________________________________ 42. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. As we grow older, we can strengthen our brain pathways that could help delay or prevent memory loss or thinking problems. ______________________________________________________ 43. Please share one of your experiences of delayed satisfaction. （In about 40words） ______________________________________________________ 第二节（20分） 假设你是红星中学学生会主席李华。下周你校将组织同学们到附近社区为大兴区“创城”做志愿活动。你校交换生 Chris 打算参加这项活动，发来邮件咨询，请你给他回复一封邮件，内容包括： 1.活动安排； 2.活动意义。 注意： 1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 提示词：创城 build a civilized city Dear Chris, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua （请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内） 试题 第7页（共10页） 试题 第8页（共10页） 试题 第9页（共10页） 试题 第10页（共10页） 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
