floodwaters from Hurricane Harvey surrounded her apartment．With the roads underwater，the two-mile drive to the hospital was impossible．Annie and her husband，Greg，both doctors，began preparing for a home birth． Greg rushed to gather supplies—scissors，sewing needles—while his mother boiled water to sterilize (消毒) them．“I'm really starting to get scared now，” Annie told Greg as the reality set in．A neighbor，checking on the Smiths，sent an email to their apartment complex's message board asking for help．Within 30 minutes，at least 15 people showed up，including medical trainees from the complex． Meanwhile，the couple had been continuously dialing 911 but never got an answer．Finally，a call to the director of Annie's fellowship program led to action．The director's father，who lived near a fire station，walked there to explain the situation． Around noon，a rescue truck arrived．By then，the water had reached a formidable level that the vehicle couldn't get close．The Smiths' neighbors and firefighters formed a human chain to help Annie Smith to the back of the flatbed truck．“I held onto them one person at a time，” she said，moving on her hands and knees along their arms until she reached the ladder safely．She sat on a blanket in the truck，a shower curtain over her head，as they drove through the flood． The Smiths arrived at Texas Children's Hospital about 15 minutes later．An hour later，their daughter Adrielle was born，weighing 7 pounds，6 ounces．The couple，exhausted but relieved，appreciated the neighbors and firemen who had come to their aid．“It was absolutely incredible how many people responded and were out in the rain trying to help us，” Annie said． 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一对医生夫妇在飓风洪水中，因无法到达医院而准备在家分娩，最终在邻居和消防员的帮助下成功获救并诞下女儿的感人故事。 1．Why did the Smiths at first prepare

A．To record an unforgettable disaster． B．To remember the respected firemen． C．To praise the love within the community． D．To raise funds for Annie's fellowship program． C　[推理判断题。结合全文内容，尤其是最后一段中的“The couple，exhausted but relieved，appreciated the neighbors and firemen who had come to their aid．‘It was absolutely incredible how many people responded and were out in the rain trying to help us，’ Annie said．”可知，这对夫妇非常感激前来帮助他们的邻居和消防员。由此推知，作者写这篇文章的目的是赞美社区内的互助与爱心。] Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) (2025·江西赣州一模)Thanks to smartphones，all the entertainment and distraction they offer can be accessible anytime at your fingertips．But if one of your resolutions for 2025 is to disconnect more frequently from your digital device，encountering boredom may be an unexpected consequence． 1 So，what can you do to alleviate boredom？James Danckert，a psychology professor at the University of Waterloo，noted “We don't really have any good data on interventions for boredom．” Instead，he offered three admittedly unscientific suggestions to manage it． Create a list for yourself Make a list of activities that you can turn to when you're bored．“ 2 ” Danckert said．“But then you should have a second or third or fourth，so that when that primary thing that usually works doesn't work，you can turn to these other things on your list．” Stop scrolling mindlessly Despite technology bringing the world to our fingertips，society is experiencing higher levels of boredom． 3 In fact，they can make it worse．If you're just sort of mindlessly scrolling through your social media feeds，it's going to make your boredom worse in the long run． 4 Boredom has a message for you，so pay attention．“I don't think we should embrace boredom，but I also don't think we should try to escape from it，” Danckert said．“ 5 So we should just learn to listen to it and figure out what it tells us in that moment．We need to adapt it and respond to it in good ways．” A．Don't try to hide from boredom． B．Boredom is neither good nor bad． C．Boredom can be as disturbing as pain． D．Do something to get out of that bored state． E．For me，the primary one is playing the guitar． F．Such a list helps you know the tasks you need to finish． G．Our phones and social media are not solutions to our boredom． 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了现代人如何应对因减少使用数字设备而产生的无聊感，并提出了几种应对无聊的建议。 1．C　[根据上文“But if one of your resolutions for 2025 is to disconnect more frequently from your digital device，encountering boredom may be an unexpected consequence．”以及下文“So，what can you do to alleviate boredom？”可知，选项承接上下文说明无聊的程度。故选C。] 2．E　[根据上文“Make a list of activities that you can turn to when you're bored．”可知，选项承接上文具体说明活动清单的内容。故选E。] 3．G　[根据下文“In fact，they can make it worse．If you're just sort of mindlessly scrolling through your social media feeds，it's going to make your boredom worse in the long run．”可知，手机和社交媒体会让你更孤独。故选G。] 4．A　[根据下文“Boredom has a message for you，so pay attention．‘I don't think we should embrace boredom，but I also don't think we should try to escape from it，’ Danckert said．”可知，本段主要讲我们不应该试图逃避无聊。故选A。] 5．B　[根据上文“I don't think we should embrace boredom，but I also don't think we should try to escape from it”可知，选项承接上文总结其性质。故选B。] Group 3　阅读理解C篇＋阅读七选五(观点论述类) Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分) (2025·河南豫东、豫北联考)Sweden is so good at recycling that，for several years，it has imported rubbish from other countries so that its recycling plants can function smoothly．Less than 1 percent of Swedish household waste was sent to landfills (垃圾填埋场) last year or any year since 2011． We can only dream of such an effective system in the UK，which is why we end up paying expensive transport costs to send rubbish to be recycled overseas rather than paying fines to send it to landfills under The Landfill Tax of 1996． Why are we sending waste to Sweden? Their system is so far ahead because of a culture of looking after the environment．Sweden was one of the first countries to place a heavy tax on fossil fuels in 1991 and now sources almost half its electricity from renewables． “In Sweden，people are quite crazy about being out in nature and they have a clear idea of what needs to be done on nature and environmental problems．We worked on communications for a long time to make people not throw things outdoors so that we can recycle and reuse，” says Anria-Carin Gripwall，director of communications for Avfall Sverige，the Swedish Waste Management's recycling association． Over time，Sweden has carried out a national recycling policy so that even though private companies undertake most of the business of importing and burning waste，the energy goes into a national heating network to heat homes through the freezing Swedish winter．“That's a key reason that we have this district network，so we can use the heating from the waste plants．In the southern part of Europe they don't use the heating from the waste; it just goes out of the chimney．Here we use it as a substitute for fossil fuel，” Ms Gripwall says． 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了瑞典高效的垃圾回收系统，人们的环境保护意识也很高，已基本实现零垃圾。 1．Why has Sweden been importing rubbish from abroad in the past few years? A．To try out its recycling system． B．To keep its recycling plants running． C．To stop rubbish ending up in landfills． D．To make greater profits from rubbish． B　[细节理解题。根据第一段中“Sweden is so good at recycling ..．can function smoothly．”可知，瑞典从他国进口垃圾是为了让本国的垃圾回收工厂正常运转。故选B。] 2．Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “sources” in paragraph 3? A．Consumes．　 B．Saves． C．Obtains． D．Improves． C　[词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“Sweden was one of the first countries to place a heavy tax on fossil fuels in 1991”以及后文“almost half its electricity from renewables”可知，瑞典是1991年第一批开始对化石燃料征收重税的国家之一，如今该国近一半的电力供应来自可再生能源，故source意为“获得”，与obtain同义。故选C。] 3．How does Sweden handle the heating from the waste plants? A．By making use of it to heat homes． B．By exchanging it for fossil fuel． C．By selling it to other countries． D．By sending it out from the chimney． A　[细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Over time，Sweden has carried out a national recycling policy so that even though private companies undertake most of the business of importing and burning waste，the energy goes into a national heating network to heat homes through the freezing Swedish winter．”可知，瑞典人通过回收利用废弃物来为房屋供暖。故选A。] 4．What conclusion can be drawn from the text?

feed？When shopping online，do you often focus on top-listed，AI-suggested items？If you answer “Yes”，most of the time，you go along with what the algorithm recommends． 1 As the name suggests，the term refers to our growing tendency to outsource decisions to systems designed to predict and control our behavior． Now，there's nothing fundamentally wrong with accepting algorithmic suggestions． 2 But like water slowly carving stone，repeated reliance on AI recommendations can weaken our capacity for independent judgement and even our sense of self．Over time，such reliance not only affects the quality of our choices but also undermines our ability to trust our own judgements． 3 It is the capacity to make intentional choices and take purposeful action．Exercising it requires that we actively shape ourselves through thoughtful choices，rather than being passively shaped by algorithms，social norms，or external pressures． To achieve this，practicing intentional pauses proves workable．That is，before accepting a recommendation，pause and ask，“Would I have made this choice on my own？” 4 For example，when you're on YouTube，autoplay goes to another video．Instead of watching mindlessly，you pause and realize you're not truly interested．You close the app and go for a walk instead，following your inner voice over automation． To be human is to choose．It is to exercise the human capacity for intentional action，the ability we have been given to be the authors of our own lives．As AI becomes more integrated in our lives，we must actively preserve our decision-making capacities． 5 A．That is how we remain human． B．So，it's time to reclaim human agency． C．In many cases，they save us considerable time． D．The aim of this question is to stay open to algorithm． E．This short reflection brings awareness to your decisions． F．Psychologists term this common practice “algorithmic dependence”． G．An algorithm is a set of defined rules you follow to get a specific result． 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了人们对算法推荐的依赖现象，强调保持人类自主决策能力的重要性。 1．F　[根据上文“When you log into social media，does an algorithm govern your feed？When shopping online，do you often focus on top-listed，AI-suggested items？If you answer ‘Yes’，most of the time，you go along with what the algorithm recommends．”可知，此处描述人们普遍跟随算法推荐的行为，结合下文“As the name suggests，the term refers to our growing tendency to outsource decisions to systems designed to predict and control our behavior．”引出对这一现象的专业定义，F选项精准指代上文行为，“term”直接衔接下文术语解释，承上启下。故选F项。] 2．C　[根据上文“Now，there's nothing fundamentally wrong with accepting algorithmic suggestions．”可知，此段先肯定算法的合理性。C项具体说明其“节省时间”的益处，与上文“nothing fundamentally wrong”形成逻辑顺承，同时为下文转折做铺垫。故选C项。] 3．B　[根据下文“It is the capacity to make intentional choices and take purposeful action．”可知，“It”指代空格处核心概念，且该段聚焦“人类自主决策能力”。B选项中的human agency直接对应下文“the capacity to make intentional choices”，而reclaim呼应上文“依赖算法削弱自主能力”的问题，引出对自主决策的呼吁，统领段落主旨。故选B项。] 4．E　[根据上文“That is，before accepting a recommendation，pause and ask，‘Would I have made this choice on my own？’”可知，此处提出“有意停顿”的具体方法。E项中的This short reflection指代上文“pause and ask”的行为，而brings awareness阐明反思对决策自主性的促进作用，与下文YouTube场景的例子“关闭应用、跟随内心”形成呼应，验证方法的有效性。故选E项。] 5．A　[根据上文“As AI becomes more integrated in our lives，we must actively preserve our decision-making capacities．”可知，此段总结维护自主决策的必要性。A选项将“自主决策”提升至“人性本质”的高度，呼应首段“算法依赖可能削弱自我”的警示，以哲学视角收束全文，强化核心论点。故选A项。] Group 4　阅读理解D篇＋阅读七选五(叙事分享类) Ⅰ．阅读理解(共4小题；每小题2.5分，满分10分) (2025·广东广州二模)New research reveals that “intensive domain-specific training” like mathematics fundamentally reshapes brain activity during complex problem solving，offering insights into the cognitive neuroscience (认知神经科学) of concentration．A study published in Cognitive Neuroscience compared graduate students in math-related fields with peers in non-mathematical fields to investigate how long-term specialized practice influences thinking processes． Participants watched video demonstrations of multi-step mathematical problems while wearing brain-wave-monitoring caps to track brain activity．The study found clear differences：non-math students' front brain areas (linked to memory and focus) worked harder as they struggled to follow logical steps．In contrast，math-intensive students displayed synchronized (同步的) slow brain waves connecting the frontal and upper-back brain areas，which are responsible for abstract reasoning and spatial processing．These slow brain rhythms，typically observed during deep sleep，appeared to facilitate efficient communication between distant neural networks during intense focus． These findings indicate that repeated exposure to complex problem solving allows math-trained students to automate basic logical steps (e．g．formula application)，which saves mental energy for complex analysis．This “neural efficiency”—the brain's adaptability through training—mirrors patterns in other experts：experienced musicians' brains show similar slow waves when composing and athletes enter similar “flow states” during competitions．Most importantly，researchers confirm such neural efficiency isn't inborn but develops through deliberate practice．Students with equal IQs but less math training lacked these distinctive wave patterns．However，those who engaged in repetition and intentional study eventually developed such patterns，becoming more efficient in solving problems． By the same logic，these findings hint at a trade-off that people should keep in mind particularly as artificial intelligence (AI) and other tools offer tempting shortcuts for various forms of problem solving．Dr．Elena Torres，lead researcher of the study，further warns that over-reliance on AI might weaken our brain's natural problem-solving abilities．“Each time we off-load a problem to a calculator or ask AI to summarize an essay，we are losing an opportunity to improve our own skills and practise deep concentration for ourselves．” Torres urges “a strategic balance—use AI for repetitive labor，thanks to its fast data processing and continuous operation，but reserve complex challenges for deep，tech-free focus．” 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了新的研究揭示“特定领域的强化训练”(如数学)如何从根本上重塑大脑在解决复杂问题时的活动，提供了对集中注意力的认知神经科学的见解。 1．What was the main purpose of the new research? A．To study how specialized training affects brains． B．To investigate how AI tools influence learning． C．To compare brain activity among math experts． D．To measure IQ levels across different specialists． A　[细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的“A study published in Cognitive Neuroscience compared graduate students in math-related fields with peers in non-mathematical fields to investigate how long-term specialized practice influences thinking processes．”可知，这项发表在《认知神经科学》上的研究将数学相关领域的研究生和非数学领域的研究生进行对比，是为了探究长期的专业训练是如何影响思维过程的，而思维过程与大脑活动相关，也就是研究专业训练如何影响大脑。故选A。] 2．How did non-math students' brains differ from those of math students in complex problem solving? A．Their front-top parts worked together． B．They showed random sleep-like waves． C．Their front area worked with extra effort． D．They processed information automatically． C　[细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的“The study found clear differences：non-math students' front brain areas (linked to memory and focus) worked harder as they struggled to follow logical steps．In contrast，math-intensive students displayed synchronized slow brain waves connecting the frontal and upper-back brain areas，which are responsible for abstract reasoning and spatial processing．”可知，非数学专业学生在努力理解逻辑步骤时，他们大脑前部区域更加努力地工作；而大量学习数学的学生则表现为大脑前部和上后部区域之间出现同步的慢脑电波。] 3．What is crucial to developing “neural efficiency” according to the text? A．Long-term focused practice． B．Inborn abstract reasoning talent． C．Random exposure to complex problems． D．Training on memorizing basic logical steps． A　[细节理解题。根据文章第三段中的“Most importantly，researchers confirm such neural efficiency isn't inborn but develops through deliberate practice..．becoming more efficient in solving problems．”可知，这种神经效率并非天生的，而是通过进行重复和有意学习最终形成了这种模式，在解决问题时变得更有效率。因此，培养“神经效率”的关键是长期专注的练习。] 4．What do Dr．Elena Torres' quotes highlight in the last paragraph? A．AI tools limit independent learning opportunities． B．Technology improves efficiency in complex tasks． C．Overusing shortcuts harms cognitive development． D．AI tools reduce motivation for deep concentration． C　[推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中的“Dr．Elena Torres，lead researcher of the study，further warns that over-reliance on AI might weaken our brain's natural problem-solving abilities..．we are losing an opportunity to improve our own skills and practise deep concentration for ourselves．”可知，Elena Torres博士警告过度依赖人工智能可能会削弱我们大脑天生的问题解决能力，每次将问题交给计算器或让人工智能总结文章，我们都失去了提升自身技能和锻炼深度专注力的机会，可推知过度使用捷径(如AI)对认知发展有害。] Ⅱ．阅读七选五(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) (2025·江苏南京模拟)I first became interested in the Rubik's Cube (魔方) when I was 13 because I wanted to use it in my magic trick routine．I soon realized that if I really made an effort，I could solve the cube．I started watching videos that explained the algorithms (算法)．I watched them every day and I became fascinated． 1 In 2019，Rubik's Cube hired me as a brand ambassador (大使)，and I began making video content for them．Every job I've ever had has been in some way related to the skills I've acquired through cubing． 2 It has also shown me that success is often the result of messing up． As well as working as a brand ambassador，I participate in Guinness World Records attempts to get recognition for the cube．For the Guinness World Record at the London Marathon in 2024，Rubik's sent me 600 cubes，which my friends scrambled (打乱)．The cubes were then put into bags．During the race，I had two bags on my front：one for the scrambled cubes and the other for the solved cubes． 3 I had people waiting at checkpoints every two miles to exchange bags with me and give me 50 scrambled cubes in return for the 50 I had solved．This meant I was carrying ten kilos of cubes with me for the entire race． 4 In this way，everything was documented and then confirmed by Guinness World Records to make it official． 5 We're not competing against each other，but against ourselves．In 2024，I beat my quickest solving time of 3.31 seconds，reducing it to 3.25 seconds．It was a great feeling！I believe anyone can solve the cube—it's just a question of hard work and putting in the time． A．It has taught me hard work and problem-solving． B．I managed to solve 520 cubes while I was running． C．About a year later，I won my first UK champion title． D．I also had a camera on my head to film myself solving． E．To keep my mind sharp，I ran 100 kilometres per week． F．The thing I like most about cubing is the inclusive community． G．This is necessary，as I regularly travel to competitions around the world． 【语篇解读】　本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者因魔术对魔方产生兴趣，后成品牌大使，还在马拉松中创纪录并分享感悟的故事。 1．C　[上文“I first became interested in the Rubik's Cube when I was 13 because I wanted to use it in my magic trick routine．I soon realized that if I really made an effort，I could solve the cube．I started watching videos that explained the algorithms．I watched them every day and I became fascinated．”说明作者对魔方产生了兴趣并开始学习相关算法。空处和前文为顺接关系，说明作者在魔方学习上的进一步成果。所以C项中“About a year later”衔接时间线，“won my first UK champion title”为后续被品牌雇佣的铺垫。] 2．A　[上文“Every job I've ever had has been in some way related to the skills I've acquired through cubing．”说明作者的工作与玩魔方所获得的技能有关联。下文“It has also shown me that success is often the result of messing up．” 通过also表并列，强调另一层启示。空处需与上下文构成并列关系，体现魔方带来的双重影响。所以A项中“taught me hard work and problem-solving”对应上文中的 “skills”，且与下文“also shown me”结构一致。] 3．B　[上文“During the race，I had two bags on my front：one for the scrambled cubes and the other for the solved cubes．”说明作者在比赛过程中带着两个包，分别装着打乱的魔方和解开的魔方。空处和前文为顺接关系，说明作者在比赛过程中对魔方的处理情况。所以B项符合语境，“solved 520 cubes”承接“the solved cubes”，并引出下文换袋的原因(需处理已复原的魔方)。] 4．D　[上文“This meant I was carrying ten kilos of cubes with me for the entire race．”说明作者在比赛过程中需要携带大量的魔方。下文“In this way，everything was documented and then confirmed by Guinness World Records to make it official．”说明需记录过程以获吉尼斯认证。空处顺接前文，并和下文形成因果关系，说明作者为了记录这一过程所采取的措施。所以D项符合语境，进一步说明了作者为了记录比赛过程所做的准备。故选D。] 5．F　[下文“We're not competing against each other，but against ourselves．”说明玩魔方的人之间不是竞争关系，而是与自己竞争。空处为该段首句，应引出下文关于玩魔方的人之间关系的话题。所以F项符合语境，“inclusive community”直接呼应下文“not competing against each other”，引出对社区氛围的阐述。故选F。] 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
