Artificial intelligence (AI) has been making our lives easier in many areas, from automating tasks to extracting information from big data files. However, not everything AI does is in our best interest. AI password cracking has also increased because AI can hack (破解) passwords in seconds.
A recent report led by Rahul Mahna’s team from the University of East London found that an AI password cracker called PassGAN could crack any seven- digit password in less than six minutes — even if the passwords contained symbols, numbers, and capital and lowercase letters. Additionally, the AI cracked 51% of these usual types of passwords within a minute, 65% within an hour, 71% within a day and 81% within a month. After seeing these worrying results, you’ll undoubtedly take online security more seriously.
How can you protect your passwords from these hackers? Mahna suggests the following methods to help you protect yourself against hackers.

Mahna emphasizes having different passwords for each website, device or service. Don’t worry about remembering all these passwords, since password managers can not only store your passwords but can also generate unique combinations for you.

Using long passwords that include numbers, capital and lowercase letters and symbols — and are not easily understood or inferred — will enhance the protection element.

Posting too much information online — like on Facebook or Instagram — about your life is not a good idea if you’re concerned about security. It can provide information about your location, valuables and family.
If you assume you’ve been hacked, don’t scan for viruses or change passwords until you have disconnected from the Internet. The best way to handle an attack is to prepare in advance, like changing your passwords frequently.

Dear Mom,
It’s me, Faisal Abdullah Malik, your son from Pakistan, who crossed the border for a heart transplant. You saved my life a decade ago by making a decision that only a mother as extraordinary as you could make.
On 26 December 2014, both our lives changed forever. Karthick, your beloved son, was brought to Tirupur Government Hospital, near Coimbatore, in southern India, after a tragic road accident. He was later transferred to G. Kuppusamy Naidu Memorial (GKNM) Hospital. When the doctors declared him brain dead, you had to face the unthinkable, holding his hand, saying your silent goodbyes.
In the depths of that unimaginable grief, Mom, you made a choice that speaks of boundless courage and selflessness. You not only gave me Karthick’s heart but also donated five other organs, giving the gift of life to six strangers. You made this difficult decision without ever questioning the race, religion, or nationality. Your decision was solely about saving lives.
Today, as a father of two growing children, I can truly understand the magnitude of your sacrifice. I can only imagine the storm of emotions you must have battled. Did you question if it was the right decision? Did you fear it was too much to bear? And yet, in the darkest hour of your life, you chose life for others. You chose hope. I know Karthick must be so proud of you, as am I, Mom. I am alive today because of your strength.
Tearing apart the political divide, I have longed to meet you, Mom. I have travelled to Chennai several times since receiving Karthick’s heart, always hoping to somehow find a way to Coimbatore. But my medical visa restricts me from travelling outside Chennai. You might be wondering why I don’t even call you? Names of donors and recipients are kept confidential, and I feel helpless.
Allah tells us in The Qur’an, “Whoever saves a life, it is as if they saved all of humanity.” Mom, you embody it. I love you, Mom, forever and always.
Yours always,
Faisal
4. What can we learn about Karthick from the text?
A. He donated all his organs to six strangers. B. He received treatment in GKNM Hospital.
C. He died immediately in the road accident. D. He was a man of courage and selflessness.
5. Which of the following words can best describe the mother?
A. Noble and open-minded. B. Friendly and hard-working.
C. Loyal and strong-willed. D. Modest and warm-hearted.
6. Why did Faisal feel “helpless” in the letter?
A. His poor health prevented his traveling. B. He lost touch with his mother in India.
C. He was limited in his travel and contact. D. The government banned border crossing.
7. What is the author’s primary purpose in writing this letter?
A. To ask for medical assistance. B. To advocate for organ donation.
C. To record his transplant experience. D. To express his sincere gratitude.
C
Every December, my house turns into the island of unwanted gifts. People are kind, but there are only so many candied nut tins, caramel popcorn towers, and sugar cookies one family can consume.
Let us not forget my wedding-regift incident. We received a very expensive electric teakettle. We don’t drink tea, so we returned it to the store and got S75. Later, the store manager called, furious, accusing us of trading them a piece of junk. Someone had bought the kettle and discovered an obviously used cut-glass Easter basket inside. It turns out that person had regifted it to us. We paid the store back and were handed that ugly Easter basket.
This made me wonder: Is regifting a form of rudeness? To find out, let’s explore both sides of the regifting debate.
First of all, humans have been regifting since the dawn of time. Caveman A gives Caveman B a rock; Caveman B gives it to Caveman C. We call that anthropology (人类学). Modern life demands efficiency. Why let something sit in a cabinet? Why not give that brand-new item to someone who will actually use it? It’s economical. It’s environmentally friendly. It’s basically the circle of life.
And yet regifting is a high-risk sport. It requires memory and strategy. Give the gift to the wrong person, and suddenly people are texting: “Didn’t I give this to you?” Regifting can go terribly wrong if you misjudge a person’s taste, so you should not regift within the same social ecosystem, while also carefully removing all the evidence (cards, receipts, etc.). Ultimately, the key is to match the gift to the person — so never give spa products to someone who hates lotions (乳液).
My official ruling? Regifting is not rude. Thoughtlessness is rude. Waste is rude. But giving something new, unused and suited to someone else’s preferences is generosity in its most practical, planet- friendly form. So go ahead — regift joyfully, wisely and guilt-free. After all, someone out there really needs those candied nuts.
8. What does the underlined word “furious” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Confused. B. Frustrated. C. Annoyed. D. Surprised.
9. Why does the author mention “Caveman” in the text?
A. To trace back the long history of regifting. B. To provide examples of human efficiency.
C. To encourage the proper action of regifting. D. To explain the nature of ancient anthropology.
10. Which of the following might be a successful regifting?
A. Sending a spa product to a colleague. B. Returning a costly gift to a local store.
C. Sharing fresh candies with a neighbor. D. Giving a suitable scarf to a new friend.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Does regifting make sense? B. Is regifting actually rude?
C. What’s the power of regifting? D. Why is regifting high-risk?
D
Swindale Beck meanders (蜿蜒) through fields, farmland and valleys. However, not long ago, the river took a far more straight course.
A healthy river should be winding, free flowing and filled with wildlife. The ideal river is “very dynamic, messy and chaotic”, says Glen Swainson, a manager of RSPB. In Britain, however, 97% of rivers are broken up by artificial barriers. And for centuries rivers have been slowly artificially straightened to stop water from flooding and spilling onto farmland and houses.
But removing a river’s natural meanders has, in fact, achieved the opposite effect. Instead, it has disrupted the flow of rivers and destroyed water habitats, water quality and heightened flood risk. As the poor health of Europe’s rivers and streams continues to make news, communities are turning towards natural solutions to restore their rivers.
According to Tom Hayek, a natural flood management specialist, adding meanders into rivers has two benefits — it changes both the volume and the speed of water. Firstly, it decreases what’s known as flow conveyance. “When the length of the river is increased, you spread water over a wider area. This allows more water to sit up in the headwaters.” The second impact is on speed. Put simply, the more structure you add to the shape of a river, the slower the water will move down it. If it’s straight, water will “fly” through, says Hayek. When the flow of water is slowed, it creates deeper pools for fish to gather and rest.
With meanders added to Swindale Beck, the results were astonishing, says Annabel Rushton, a visitor experience manager. “Within three months of that river being re-wiggled, the salmon (鲑鱼) were spawning (产卵) in that one kilometre area for the first time in over150 years,” she says. Scientists have also noted an increase in fish gathering. Then, there were the knock-on effects. Water-loving plants returned, providing cover for young fish to feed and hide.
12. Why were many rivers in Britain artificially straightened in the past?
A. To increase the natural flow of rivers. B. To improve water habitats for wildlife.
C. To create barriers for flood management. D. To protect people and land from floods.
13. What problem may be caused by removing a river’s meanders?
A. Lower water levels. B. Poorer farming land. C. Worse water quality. D. Drier wildlife habitats.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A. The benefits of adding meanders. B. The impacts of straightening rivers.
C. The examples of controlling floods. D. The needs of increasing water speed.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Nature conservation is often a long game. B. Species co-exist and function as a whole.
C. Eco-recovery can happen at a high speed. D. Bio-diversity relies on human intervention.
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。
There’s nothing like fresh-cut flowers to brighten up your space. But even if you have somewhat of a green thumb, those blooms are on borrowed time. ___16___ Here are some practical tips from Sarah Wiles, a professional florist with years of experience.
Snip the bottom of the stems.
Cutting the bottom of flower stems on an angle is a traditional and effective technique. “An angle is best,” says Wiles. “It creates a larger surface area to draw up water and prevents the stem from sitting flat against the bottom of the vase.” ___17___ What matters most is keeping the vase clean and water fresh.
___18___
It’s vital to change out the water before it gets cloudy. Every day would be best. “Some flowers, like sunflowers, promote more bacteria growth, so they need more frequent changes,” says Wiles. When doing so, remember to also add more flower food to the fresh water to maintain nutrient levels.
Keep the environment clean and tidy.
___19___ “As flowers die, they produce more bacteria and ethylene gas, which makes the other flowers wilt faster,” Wiles noted. Removing them as soon as possible helps the rest last longer.
Keep the vase out of the sunlight.
A vase is not a garden of living flowers; it’s a container of dying ones, so they don’t need direct sun. In fact, that’s a bad thing. “Direct sunlight increases the temperature and reduces vase life. The warmth accelerates the flowers’ breath and water loss, essentially making them ‘age’ faster,” Wiles says. ___20___
By following these simple steps, you can slow down the clock and enjoy the natural beauty of your blooms for as long as possible.
A. Why does this supposedly work?
B. Refresh water and flower food regularly.
C. What will actually make your flowers last longer?
D. Buy more flower mix to add back into fresh water.
E. A cooler, darker room will keep flowers fresh longer.
F. While it turns out that’s a good thing, don’t worry if you cut them straight.
G. You can do this for artistic factors, but there’s an even better reason to do it.

When I finally arrived, my grandmother treated the wound with warm turmeric. Seeing my downcast eyes, she whispered, “The mark on your face isn’t a sign of failure, but a proof of your _____31_____. You stood where others wouldn’t.” Her words _____32_____ me faster than the medicine.
That wasn’t the only time I got hurt on those overused pitches. Injuries were frequent, but they _____33_____ me for the struggles ahead.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
In 2005, my husband Meherwan and I took a leap of faith. We moved with our 3-year-old daughter, Aria, from the bustling streets of San Francisco to Asheville, a small Appalachian town. To me, relocating from a major international city to the mountains seemed like a “wild experiment”, filled with the unknown.
However, Asheville quickly got its hooks into us. We opened a restaurant, and soon discovered that life here felt “real”. During a local festival, I watched Aria run to embrace a stranger of her age, while around them, punk-rock cooks and elderly people from all walks of life held hands in a community dance. I realized then that people moved here to rediscover community and look out for each other. We had found our “forever roots” in this unique haven of openness and tolerance.
But our bond was tested on September 27, 2024, when Hurricane Helene struck with record-breaking quantities of rain. We awoke to a world of utter devastation. Ankle-deep streams had turned into wild rivers, smashing homes and businesses. The ruin was complete: roads were washed out, power lines were down, and we were cut off from the rest of the world. No cell service, no Internet, no running water — only the frightening silence of isolation. Refusing to sit still and grieve, Meherwan and I gathered a small crew at our restaurant. We had thrived here for nineteen years, and now it was time to give back. By the second day, we began cooking for our neighbors, despite the lack of resources. We weren’t just serving food; we were trying to sustain the spirit of our town.
While we were busy in the kitchen, I looked up to see a group of kids wandering in on their bikes. They weren’t looking for a handout but rather to give a hand. With their boots covered in mud, they stood ready. “We want to help,” one of them said firmly.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
I nodded and assigned the young volunteers to the sandwich station.

Dear Mom,
It’s me, Faisal Abdullah Malik, your son from Pakistan, who crossed the border for a heart transplant. You saved my life a decade ago by making a decision that only a mother as extraordinary as you could make.
On 26 December 2014, both our lives changed forever. Karthick, your beloved son, was brought to Tirupur Government Hospital, near Coimbatore, in southern India, after a tragic road accident. He was later transferred to G. Kuppusamy Naidu Memorial (GKNM) Hospital. When the doctors declared him brain dead, you had to face the unthinkable, holding his hand, saying your silent goodbyes.
In the depths of that unimaginable grief, Mom, you made a choice that speaks of boundless courage and selflessness. You not only gave me Karthick’s heart but also donated five other organs, giving the gift of life to six strangers. You made this difficult decision without ever questioning the race, religion, or nationality. Your decision was solely about saving lives.
Today, as a father of two growing children, I can truly understand the magnitude of your sacrifice. I can only imagine the storm of emotions you must have battled. Did you question if it was the right decision? Did you fear it was too much to bear? And yet, in the darkest hour of your life, you chose life for others. You chose hope. I know Karthick must be so proud of you, as am I, Mom. I am alive today because of your strength.
Tearing apart the political divide, I have longed to meet you, Mom. I have travelled to Chennai several times since receiving Karthick’s heart, always hoping to somehow find a way to Coimbatore. But my medical visa restricts me from travelling outside Chennai. You might be wondering why I don’t even call you? Names of donors and recipients are kept confidential, and I feel helpless.
Allah tells us in The Qur’an, “Whoever saves a life, it is as if they saved all of humanity.” Mom, you embody it. I love you, Mom, forever and always.
Yours always,
Faisal

C
Every December, my house turns into the island of unwanted gifts. People are kind, but there are only so many candied nut tins, caramel popcorn towers, and sugar cookies one family can consume.
Let us not forget my wedding-regift incident. We received a very expensive electric teakettle. We don’t drink tea, so we returned it to the store and got S75. Later, the store manager called, furious, accusing us of trading them a piece of junk. Someone had bought the kettle and discovered an obviously used cut-glass Easter basket inside. It turns out that person had regifted it to us. We paid the store back and were handed that ugly Easter basket.
This made me wonder: Is regifting a form of rudeness? To find out, let’s explore both sides of the regifting debate.
First of all, humans have been regifting since the dawn of time. Caveman A gives Caveman B a rock; Caveman B gives it to Caveman C. We call that anthropology (人类学). Modern life demands efficiency. Why let something sit in a cabinet? Why not give that brand-new item to someone who will actually use it? It’s economical. It’s environmentally friendly. It’s basically the circle of life.
And yet regifting is a high-risk sport. It requires memory and strategy. Give the gift to the wrong person, and suddenly people are texting: “Didn’t I give this to you?” Regifting can go terribly wrong if you misjudge a person’s taste, so you should not regift within the same social ecosystem, while also carefully removing all the evidence (cards, receipts, etc.). Ultimately, the key is to match the gift to the person — so never give spa products to someone who hates lotions (乳液).
My official ruling? Regifting is not rude. Thoughtlessness is rude. Waste is rude. But giving something new, unused and suited to someone else’s preferences is generosity in its most practical, planet- friendly form. So go ahead — regift joyfully, wisely and guilt-free. After all, someone out there really needs those candied nuts.
8. What does the underlined word “furious” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Confused. B. Frustrated. C. Annoyed. D. Surprised.
9. Why does the author mention “Caveman” in the text?
A. To trace back the long history of regifting. B. To provide examples of human efficiency.
C. To encourage the proper action of regifting. D. To explain the nature of ancient anthropology.
10. Which of the following might be a successful regifting?
A. Sending a spa product to a colleague. B. Returning a costly gift to a local store.
C. Sharing fresh candies with a neighbor. D. Giving a suitable scarf to a new friend.
11. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Does regifting make sense? B. Is regifting actually rude?
C. What’s the power of regifting? D. Why is regifting high-risk?
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章主要讲的是“转赠礼物(regifting)”这一行为是否属于不礼貌行为。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词下文“accusing us of trading them a piece of junk. Someone had bought the kettle and discovered an obviously used cut-glass Easter basket inside.(指责我们卖给他们的是一件破烂货。有人买了这个水壶,发现里面有一个明显是用过的水晶玻璃复活节彩蛋篮)”可知,商店的经理觉得作者卖给他们的是一件破烂货,所以打电话来的时候应该是很生气。由此可知,划线词furious的意思是“生气的”,和annoyed意思相近。故选C。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“First of all, humans have been regifting since the dawn of time. Caveman A gives Caveman B a rock; Caveman B gives it to Caveman C. We call that anthropology (人类学).(首先,人类从古至今就一直在进行礼物的转送行为。比如,穴居人A给穴居人B一块石头;穴居人B又把这块石头转送给穴居人C。这就是人类学范畴内的现象)”可推知,作者在文中提及“穴居人”是为了追溯礼物回赠这一行为的悠久历史。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“Regifting can go terribly wrong if you misjudge a person’s taste, so you should not regift within the same social ecosystem, while also carefully removing all the evidence (cards, receipts, etc.). Ultimately, the key is to match the gift to the person — so never give spa products to someone who hates lotions (乳液).(如果对某人的喜好判断失误,转送礼物可能会变得非常糟糕,所以不应在同一个社交圈子里进行转送,同时还要小心地清除所有证据(卡片、收据等)。最终,关键在于将礼物与收礼者的需求相匹配——所以不要把美容产品送给讨厌乳液的人)”可推知,送给新朋友一条合适的围巾是成功的“转赠”行为。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第三段“This made me wonder: Is regifting a form of rudeness? To find out, let’s explore both sides of the regifting debate.(这让我产生了这样的疑问:转赠礼物是否是一种不礼貌的行为呢?为了弄清楚这个问题,让我们来探讨一下关于转赠礼物这一话题的正反两方面观点)”可知,本文主要讲的是“转赠礼物(regifting)”这一行为是否属于不礼貌行为,因此最恰当的标题是B选项“Is regifting actually rude?(转赠礼物真的算是不礼貌的行为吗?)”。故选B。
D
Swindale Beck meanders (蜿蜒) through fields, farmland and valleys. However, not long ago, the river took a far more straight course.
A healthy river should be winding, free flowing and filled with wildlife. The ideal river is “very dynamic, messy and chaotic”, says Glen Swainson, a manager of RSPB. In Britain, however, 97% of rivers are broken up by artificial barriers. And for centuries rivers have been slowly artificially straightened to stop water from flooding and spilling onto farmland and houses.
But removing a river’s natural meanders has in fact, achieved the opposite effect. Instead, it has disrupted the flow of rivers and destroyed water habitats, water quality and heightened flood risk. As the poor health of Europe’s rivers and streams continues to make news, communities are turning towards natural solutions to restore their rivers.
According to Tom Hayek, a natural flood management specialist, adding meanders into rivers has two benefits — it changes both the volume and the speed of water. Firstly, it decreases what’s known as flow conveyance. “When the length of the river is increased, you spread water over a wider area. This allows more water to sit up in the headwaters.” The second impact is on speed. Put simply, the more structure you add to the shape of a river, the slower the water will move down it. If it’s straight, water will “fly” through, says Hayek. When the flow of water is slowed, it creates deeper pools for fish to gather and rest.
With meanders added to Swindale Beck, the results were astonishing, says Annabel Rushton, a visitor experience manager. “Within three months of that river being re-wiggled, the salmon (鲑鱼) were spawning (产卵) in that one kilometre area for the first time in over150 years,” she says. Scientists have also noted an increase in fish gathering. Then, there were the knock-on effects. Water-loving plants returned, providing cover for young fish to feed and hide.
12. Why were many rivers in Britain artificially straightened in the past?
A. To increase the natural flow of rivers. B. To improve water habitats for wildlife.
C. To create barriers for flood management. D. To protect people and land from floods.
13. What problem may be caused by removing a river’s meanders?
A. Lower water levels. B. Poorer farming land. C. Worse water quality. D. Drier wildlife habitats.
14. What does paragraph 4 mainly talk about?
A The benefits of adding meanders. B. The impacts of straightening rivers.
C. The examples of controlling floods. D. The needs of increasing water speed.
15. What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A. Nature conservation is often a long game. B. Species co-exist and function as a whole.
C. Eco-recovery can happen at a high speed. D. Bio-diversity relies on human intervention.

【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要讲述英国很多河流被截弯取直以防止洪水泛滥,事实上,这反而产生了相反的效果,专家指出恢复河流弯道具有生态与防洪效益。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“And for centuries rivers have been slowly artificially straightened to stop water from flooding and spilling onto farmland and houses.(而且数百年来,河流一直被人为地逐渐拉直,以防止洪水泛滥并避免水流溢出农田和房屋)”可知,河流被人工拉直是为了保护农田和人员免受洪水侵害。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Instead, it has disrupted the flow of rivers and destroyed water habitats, water quality and heightened flood risk.(相反,这破坏了河流的流动并破坏了水生生物的栖息地、水质,并增加了洪水风险)”可知,这样做使得水质变差。故选C。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段内容,结合首句“According to Tom Hayek, a natural flood management specialist, adding meanders into rivers has two benefits — it changes both the volume and the speed of water.(据自然洪水管理专家Tom Hayek称,在河流中增加弯道有两个好处——它既能改变水流的量,也能改变水流的速度)”可知,该段主要通过专家之口解释了增加河流弯道如何通过物理机制降低流速并减少洪灾风险,旨在说明增加弯道带来的积极影响,故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“With meanders added to Swindale Beck, the results were astonishing, says Annabel Rushton, a visitor experience manager. “Within three months of that river being re-wiggled, the salmon (鲑鱼) were spawning (产卵) in that one kilometre area for the first time in over150 years,” she says. Scientists have also noted an increase in fish gathering. Then, there were the knock-on effects. Water-loving plants returned, providing cover for young fish to feed and hide.(Annabel Rushton是一位游客体验经理,她表示,当斯温戴尔河增加了弯曲部分后,结果令人震惊。“在那条河重新弯曲后的三个月内,这条河的一公里范围内(出现了)鲑鱼产卵的现象,这是超过 150 年来首次发生的情况。”她说。科学家还注意到鱼类聚集的数量有所增加。此外,还有连锁反应。喜水的植物重新生长,为幼鱼提供了遮蔽处,让它们能够觅食和躲避)”可知,河流重新蜿蜒后,其结果是“惊人的:短短三个月内,鲑鱼就在此产卵,这是150年来的第一次。同时其他鱼类数量增加,水生植物也随之恢复,这些事实有力地证明了生态恢复的速度可以非常之快。故选C。
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。
There’s nothing like fresh-cut flowers to brighten up your space. But even if you have somewhat of a green thumb, those blooms are on borrowed time. ___16___ Here are some practical tips from Sarah Wiles, a professional florist with years of experience.
Snip the bottom of the stems.
Cutting the bottom of flower stems on an angle is a traditional and effective technique. “An angle is best,” says Wiles. “It creates a larger surface area to draw up water and prevents the stem from sitting flat against the bottom of the vase.” ___17___ What matters most is keeping the vase clean and water fresh.
___18___
It’s vital to change out the water before it gets cloudy. Every day would be best. “Some flowers, like sunflowers, promote more bacteria growth, so they need more frequent changes,” says Wiles. When doing so, remember to also add more flower food to the fresh water to maintain nutrient levels.
Keep the environment clean and tidy.
___19___ “As flowers die, they produce more bacteria and ethylene gas, which makes the other flowers wilt faster,” Wiles noted. Removing them as soon as possible helps the rest last longer.
Keep the vase out of the sunlight.
A vase is not a garden of living flowers; it’s a container of dying ones, so they don’t need direct sun. In fact, that’s a bad thing. “Direct sunlight increases the temperature and reduces vase life. The warmth accelerates the flowers’ breath and water loss, essentially making them ‘age’ faster,” Wiles says. ___20___
By following these simple steps, you can slow down the clock and enjoy the natural beauty of your blooms for as long as possible.
A. Why does this supposedly work?
B. Refresh water and flower food regularly.
C. What will actually make your flowers last longer?
D. Buy more flower mix to add back into fresh water.
E. A cooler, darker room will keep flowers fresh longer.
F. While it turns out that’s a good thing, don’t worry if you cut them straight.
G. You can do this for artistic factors, but there’s an even better reason to do it.
【答案】16. C 17. F 18. B 19. G 20. E
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,文章主要介绍了让花保持更长久的盛开状态的实用建议。
【16题详解】
前文“But even if you have somewhat of a green thumb, those blooms are on borrowed time.(但即便你颇有园艺天赋,那些花朵的盛开也都是昙花一现)”提到鲜花即使被悉心照料也“生命短暂”,后文“Here are some practical tips from Sarah Wiles, a professional florist with years of experience.(以下是Sarah Wiles提供的实用建议,她是一位拥有多年从业经验的专业花艺师)”引出Sarah Wiles提供的“实用建议”。C项“究竟怎样做才能让你的花保持更长久的盛开状态呢?”起到了承上启下的作用,自然地过渡到具体方法。故选C。
【17题详解】
前文““An angle is best,” says Wiles. “It creates a larger surface area to draw up water and prevents the stem from sitting flat against the bottom of the vase.”(“采用斜口设计会更好,” Wiles说道,“这样能增加茎部的吸水面积,便于吸水,并且还能防止花茎直接平贴在花瓶底部。”)”建议“斜着切”,F选项“虽然事实证明这是一件好事,但如果你平直地把它们切开也没关系”开头提到“虽然这确实有好处”,顺接上文理由;后文又提到“即使你切直了也没关系”,引出下文“What matters most is keeping the vase clean and water fresh.(最重要的是要保持花瓶干净,水也要保持新鲜)”观点:最重要的是水质和清洁。故选F。
【18题详解】
下文“It’s vital to change out the water before it gets cloudy. Every day would be best. “Some flowers, like sunflowers, promote more bacteria growth, so they need more frequent changes,” says Wiles. When doing so, remember to also add more flower food to the fresh water to maintain nutrient levels.(在水变浑浊之前必须更换水。每天更换一次最佳。Wiles说:“有些花,比如向日葵,会促进细菌的大量繁殖,所以需要更频繁地更换水。” 在更换时,请记得也要向新水中添加更多的花卉营养液,以保持营养水平)”详细说明了“在水变浑浊前换水”以及“加入花卉养料”。B选项“定期更新水分和花卉养料”完美概括了本段核心内容。故选B。
【19题详解】
本段建议“Keep the environment clean and tidy.(保持环境干净整洁)”,下文““As flowers die, they produce more bacteria and ethylene gas, which makes the other flowers wilt faster,” Wiles noted. Removing them as soon as possible helps the rest last longer.(“当花朵凋谢时,它们会产生更多的细菌和乙烯气体,这会导致其他花朵更快地凋谢。”Wiles说道。尽快移除它们有助于让其余部分保持更长时间的完好状态)”提到要移走枯萎的花朵。G选项提到“你可以出于审美因素这样做,但还有一个更好的理由”,后文随即解释了科学层面的理由:枯萎的花会产生细菌和乙烯气体。故选G。
【20题详解】
本段主题是“Keep the vase out of the sunlight.(将花瓶放置在远离阳光的地方)”,前文“Direct sunlight increases the temperature and reduces vase life. The warmth accelerates the flowers’ breath and water loss, essentially making them ‘age’ faster(直射阳光会使温度升高,并缩短花瓶中的花朵存活时间。这种温暖会加速花朵的呼吸作用和水分蒸发,从而实质上使花朵老化得更快)”解释了高温会加速凋谢。E选项“凉爽、阴暗的房间能让鲜花保鲜更久”是对前文“避光、降温”逻辑的总结与延伸,符合段落主旨。故选E。

Tadd says, “Compared with The Analects of Confucius, which ___37___ (root) in the traditions and rules of the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), The Tao Te Ching does not involve specific names, places, ___38___ social systems.” This quality allows it to go beyond cultural boundaries and speak directly to universal human concerns.

【解析】
【分析】本文是一篇新闻报道,介绍了南开大学学者米沙·塔德历经努力,重新发现并出版了在大英图书馆尘封300多年的《道德经》拉丁文译本,讲述了他与《道德经》的渊源、寻找及整理译本的过程,并提及《道德经》虽植根于中国,却具有全球影响力。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:一部尘封在大英图书馆300多年的《道德经》拉丁文译本,近日在南开大学学者米沙·塔德的努力下被重新发现并出版。名词translation与动词forget之间为被动关系,需用过去分词作后置定语,故填forgotten。
【37题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:塔德说:“与植根于春秋时期(公元前770-476年)传统和礼制的《论语》不同,《道德经》不涉及具体的姓名、地点或社会制度。”“be rooted in”为固定搭配,意为“植根于,源于”,句子描述客观事实,需用一般现在时的被动语态,主语which指代The Analects of Confucius,为单数,故填is rooted。
【38题详解】
考查连词。句意:塔德说:“与植根于春秋时期(公元前770-476年)传统和礼制的《论语》不同,《道德经》不涉及具体的姓名、地点或社会制度。”否定句中,并列成分用or连接,此处连接names, places和social systems,符合语义逻辑,故填or。
【39题详解】
考查介词。句意:塔德与《道德经》的缘分始于14岁,当时他在美国一个小镇的图书馆里偶然发现了一个英文译本。“come across”为固定搭配,意为“偶然遇见,发现”,故填across。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:那次偶然的邂逅点燃了他对中国文化一种独特的兴趣。此处泛指“一种独特的兴趣”,one-of-a-kind以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a,故填a。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:多年后,在研究柏拉图《理想国》的拉丁文译本时,塔德想知道《道德经》是否也能被翻译成拉丁文。while引导的时间状语从句中,主语Tadd与动词study之间为主动关系,且从句主语与主句主语一致,可省略主语和be动词,用现在分词形式作状语,故填studying。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句关系副词。句意:他的搜索最终把他带到了大英图书馆,在那里他发现了这部著作的拉丁文手稿,由早期传教士翻译而成。先行词为the British Library,指地点,关系词在定语从句中作地点状语,需用关系副词where引导,故填where。
【43题详解】
考查形容词。句意:他发现手稿的部分内容已经褪色且不完整,直到2022年他才获得了这部作品的完整数字扫描件。根据前文“faded”及语境可知,此处表示“不完整的”,complete的否定形式是incomplete,意为“不完整的”,符合语境,故填incomplete。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意:“这需要持久的耐心,”塔德说。形容词enduring后需接名词作requires的宾语,patient的名词形式是patience,意为“耐心”,为不可数名词,故填patience。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意:《道德经》的思想体系植根于中国,但它的解读和影响现在已真正具有全球性。形容词global需用副词修饰,true的副词形式是truly,意为“真正地”,故填truly。

Dear teacher and classmates,
Good morning. Today, I want to talk about protecting public property, especially our desks in the classroom.
Recently, I was saddened to find our classroom desks in a terrible state. The once clean and tidy surfaces are now covered with random drawings, messy scribbles and even deep scratches. These marks not only ruin the beauty of our classroom but also affect our learning mood, showing a lack of respect for school property.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
In 2005, my husband Meherwan and I took a leap of faith. We moved with our 3-year-old daughter, Aria, from the bustling streets of San Francisco to Asheville, a small Appalachian town. To me, relocating from a major international city to the mountains seemed like a “wild experiment”, filled with the unknown.
However, Asheville quickly got its hooks into us. We opened a restaurant, and soon discovered that life here felt “real”. During a local festival, I watched Aria run to embrace a stranger of her age, while around them, punk-rock cooks and elderly people from all walks of life held hands in a community dance. I realized then that people moved here to rediscover community and look out for each other. We had found our “forever roots” in this unique haven of openness and tolerance.
But our bond was tested on September 27, 2024, when Hurricane Helene struck with record-breaking quantities of rain. We awoke to a world of utter devastation. Ankle-deep streams had turned into wild rivers, smashing homes and businesses. The ruin was complete: roads were washed out, power lines were down, and we were cut off from the rest of the world. No cell service, no Internet, no running water — only the frightening silence of isolation. Refusing to sit still and grieve, Meherwan and I gathered a small crew at our restaurant. We had thrived here for nineteen years, and now it was time to give back. By the second day, we began cooking for our neighbors, despite the lack of resources. We weren’t just serving food; we were trying to sustain the spirit of our town.
While we were busy in the kitchen, I looked up to see a group of kids wandering in on their bikes. They weren’t looking for a handout but rather to give a hand. With their boots covered in mud, they stood ready. “We want to help,” one of them said firmly.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
I nodded and assigned the young volunteers to the sandwich station.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Soon, similar scenes of support were playing out all over the city.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
I nodded and assigned the young volunteers to the sandwich station. The kitchen, once a place for business, was now a hub of hope. The kids dove into action, their small hands moving quickly as they wrapped sandwiches. I watched them scribble hearts and “Stay Strong” on each package — a simple gesture that deeply moved me. Despite the heat and lack of power, the kitchen was filled with hope. Together, we distributed warm meals to elderly neighbors and workers clearing fallen trees. Seeing their weary faces light up when the children handed them food, I felt a warmth that no storm could ever wash away.
Soon, similar scenes of support were playing out all over the city. From the local bookstore turned into a relief center to neighbors, Asheville was breathing as one. I heard stories of strangers with chainsaws clearing paths for those trapped, and families opening their doors to anyone in need. It was exactly like that community dance years ago — people from all walks of life holding hands to pull each other through the mud. While the storm had washed away our roads and cell signals, it had failed to break the invisible bond between us. We weren’t just a town; we were a family that no storm could ever shake.
