二、阅读理解
As April 18 marks the International Day for Monuments and Sites, also known as World Heritage Day, we’ve selected four archaeological (考古的) sites in China that deserve exploration.
Zhoukoudian, Beijing
Zhoukoudian, a UNESCO heritage site located 50 km from downtown Beijing, has been a significant site. At various parts of the site, scientists have unearthed the remains of early human “Peking Man” that date back more than 500,000 years, as well as of “Shandingdong Man”, who lived 30,000 years ago.
Sanxingdui Ruins site, Sichuan province
As one of the greatest archeological finds of the 20th century, the Sanxingdui Ruins are believed to be the remains of the Shu Kingdom, dating back at least 4,800 years and lasting over 2,000 years.
The ruins are located in Guanghan city in Southwest China’s Sichuan province, covering 12 square kilometers.
The Yinxu Ruins, Henan province
The Yinxu Ruins, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Anyang city, Henan province, was an ancient capital of the Shang Dynasty (16th century BC-11th century BC).
Spreading across over 30 square kilometers, the site features the greatest number of oracle bone inscriptions (甲骨文) discovered so far in the world.
The Daming Palace, Shaanxi province
Famous for its super-large scale and magnificent buildings, Daming Palace was the main royal palace in the Tang Dynasty (618-907) where Tang emperors lived and dealt with state affairs.
Covering 3.2 square kilometers, it fully demonstrates the majestic style of grand architecture during the Tang empire.
1. Which site shows the earliest human?
A. Zhoukoudian. B. The Yinxu Ruins. C. The Daming Palace. D. Sanxingdui Ruins site.
2. What is the Yinxu Ruins known for?

A. In a novel. B. In a newspaper. C. In a history book. D. In a guidebook.
Junji’s initial excitement upon arriving in the French town of Saint-Cirq-Lapopie for his semester abroad quickly gave way to a more complex emotion born of a growing list of worries — the unfamiliar climate, the fast-paced local language threatening to make his classroom French useless, and heavy traffic in the ancient narrow streets, yet one concern stood apart: a fear that it would be tough to fit in with the new eating pattern. What he had not anticipated, however, was that the real challenge would be social barriers, which seemed to be rooted in the very fabric of daily life.
On his third day, he wandered into a local bakery. He just pointed to a golden cake, and the baker, a woman named Sylvie, stopped for a moment and then served him in silence. When Junji paid, he said, “Thanks!” Sylvie replied with a phrase “S’il vous plaît”. Junji, assuming this was part of a polite goodbye, hurried out of the door, saying “Au revoir”. The following morning, he tried to greet his hostess Madame Moreau with a casual “Hey”, only to be met with a quiet response. Moreau explained that in France, entering a home or beginning a conversation without the formality of “Bonjour” was often perceived not as a simple mistake, but as disrespect.
The real moment of confusion, however, occurred during a community dinner. An elderly neighbor, Gaston, offered Junji a taste of his wine. Junji, wanting to be polite, declined with a wave of his hand, a gesture he considered perfectly friendly. Gaston seemed taken aback and grew so awkward. Later, Moreau explained that dealing with such an offer from an elder like that could be misinterpreted as rejecting friendship and community. In a society that valued such connections, accepting, even just symbolically, was the expected bridge.
It was then that Junji understood. His challenge was about decoding a whole new set of unwritten rules. He realized that learning to read the hidden intentions that floated beneath the surface of every interaction was crucial.
4. What bothered Junji most initially when he got to Saint-Cirq-Lapopie?
A. The fear of local socializing. B. His trouble with the local language.
C. The unfamiliar local climate. D. His lack of adaptation to the local diet.
5. What was Junji’s misstep in the local bakery?
A. He used informal responses. B. He left without any word.
C. He pointed rudely at the cake. D. He failed to greet the baker.
6. Why did Gaston feel embarrassed during the community dinner?
A. Junji talked with him symbolically. B. Junji gave an inappropriate gift to him.
C. Junji incorrectly refused his invitation. D. Junji tasted his wine without comment.
7. What does Junji’s experience indicate?
A. Cultural gap influences our communication.
B. We overcome culture shock by exploring it.
C. We should welcome cross-cultural lifestyles.
D. Culture can help discipline our daily behaviors.
New research from neuroscientists at Trinity College Dublin shows that babies as young as two months old may have certain ability that appears far earlier than scientists previously believed.
Working with the Coombe and Rotunda Hospitals in Dublin, the FOUNDCOG team recruited (招募) 130 infants who were all two months old. Each baby lay comfortably on a soft beanbag while wearing sound-cancelling headphones and viewing bright, colorful images designed to hold their attention for 15-20 minutes. This setup allowed researchers to use functional MRI (fMRI) to record patterns of brain activity as the babies looked at images from 12 familiar visual categories such as cat, bird, rubber duck, and tree. After collecting the brain scans (扫描), the team used AImodels to look into how different visual categories were represented in the infant brain.
It should be noted that although at two months, infants’ communication is limited by a lack of language and fine motor control, their minds are already not only representing how things look, but figuring out which category they belong to. This shows that the foundations of visual cognition (认知) are already in place from very early on — and much earlier than expected. They can already organize what they see into distinct object categories. Parents and scientists have long wondered what goes on in a baby’s mind and what they actually see when they view the world around them. “This research highlights the richness of brain function in the first year of life,” explains Dr. ClionaO’Doherty, the study’s lead author.
The findings help clarify what is happening inside a baby’s brain long before speech or intentional movement is possible. By studying how they do this, we hope to inspire a new generation of AI models that learn more efficiently, thus reducing their economic and environmental costs. This study provides new foundational knowledge, which will help guide early-years education and inspire more biologically-grounded approaches in AI.
8. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The devices for the study. B. The process of the research.
C. The state of babies’ brain function. D. The challenges in early observation.
9. What role do AI models play in this research?
A. Collect brain scan data directly. B. Create colorful images for infants.
C. Analyze visual representation in infant brains. D. Record infants’ movements during the experiment.
10. What is revealed in the new findings?
A. Infants can communicate effectively.
B. Infants can recognize bright signs at birth.
C. Babies show early item categorization ability.
D. Babies have more brain activities than adults.
11. What can we infer from the last paragraph?
A. New AI models have been tested out.
B. The research will promote efficient AI models.
C. Studying baby’s brain structure is a way to boost AI.
D. Early-years education is largely dominated by this study.
Bathrooms are naturally damp and steamy. Even with regular cleaning, moisture (潮湿) stays around. Among work, family, and a social life, cleaning every wall hard daily is almost impossible. And that’s exactly when mold (霉菌) takes the opportunity to grow.
Recently, a friend noticed yellow stuff falling down her bathroom walls. Naturally, I panicked and wanted answers fast. ____12____ Its tiny particles (颗粒) float through the air and settle in damp spots. Once there, mold spreads rapidly.
____13____ Certain types can cause allergic reactions, breathing issues, and long-lasting health problems if left unchecked. Bathrooms, with their constant moisture, are prime breeding grounds. Mold grows well in warm, damp conditions. After a shower, steam turns to water on walls and ceilings. ____14____ Mold often starts in corners or near pipe parts, then spreads quickly if ignored.
The key to prevention is controlling moisture. Let fresh air into your bathroom by opening a window or running an exhaust fan during and after showers. ____15____ If mold already appears, act fast. For surfaces that don’t absorb water, a bleach and water mix works well. For hard-to remove mold or chemical sensitivities, vinegar and a hydrogen-based cleaning liquid are safer choices. Always wear gloves and a mask to protect your skin and lungs.
Keeping your bathroom clean and dry is the best defense. Let fresh air in regularly, clean frequently, and consider a machine that reduces dampness in damp areas. If the problem gets out of hand, calling professionals is wise. ____16____
A. Mold isn’t just ugly — it’s dangerous.
B. Without proper airflow, this moisture stays around.
C. Even with good airflow, moisture doesn’t go away.
D. Mold grows wherever moisture, meets organic matter.
E. Wipe surfaces sometimes, especially areas easy to get wet.
F. Dry surfaces regularly, especially those likely to get water drops.
G. Maintaining a clean environment ensures a healthy home for everyone.
One autumn afternoon, my 12-year-old son Ethan saved a baby trapped in a burning house. Neighbors and firefighters praised him for his ____17____. The next morning, I discovered an envelope on our doorstep: “Come with your son to a red car near Lincoln Middle School at 5 a.m. tomorrow. Don’t ____18____ this.” At first, I wanted to throw it away, but ____19____ pushed me to go.
The neighborhood fire had already left us shaken, and the ____20____ raised even more questions. Ethan was interested and ____21____: “Maybe it’s someone who just wants to ____22____ me properly.”
Our hearts started pounding as we ____23____ a red luxury car waiting near the school the next day.
____24____, we were greeted by a man in his sixties who introduced himself as J.W. He ____25____ he had been a firefighter for decades—and had lost his own daughter in a house fire. Watching Ethan ____26____ the flames for someone else’s child had ____27____ him deeply, giving him back a sense of hope he thought he had lost forever.
J.W. explained he had created a ____28____ in memory of his daughter, one that supports children with scholarships and guidance opportunities. Ethan would be its first honorary ____29____. The note wasn’t a threat but an invitation to a future ____30____ than anything I could have imagined.
That day, I realized my son’s brave ____31____ had not only saved a life, but opened a door to new beginnings neither of us could have expected.
17. A. honesty B. generosity C. bravery D. strategy
18. A. ignore B. value C. fold D. occupy
19. A. addiction B. curiosity C. leisure D. mercy

Wu Tingting, 43, the first female doctor in China’s polar expedition teams, clearly remembers her wonderful journey 16 years ago. In 2010, Wu was a surgeon at a top hospital in Shanghai when she was fortunate enough ____32____ (seize) the opportunity to join China’s fourth Arctic expedition and the 27th Antarctic expedition. ____33____ (general), male surgeons are in the majority in hospitals, as was the case for the polar expedition teams, mainly due to physical ____34____ (strong) and endurance in extreme climate conditions. However, it does not necessarily mean that females are not able to qualify for either position. Instead, their unique features and qualities add color to the journey, demonstrating the ____35____ (energy) female power of pushing the polar limits.
“As female doctors, we tend to be more attentive and can observe the slight changes in our members faster and better, especially when ____36____ comes to mental health,” says Wu. She points out that, in addition to the dangers ____37____ (bring) by extreme weather conditions, loneliness was ____38____ big challenge for polar expedition team members. At that time, they had few entertainment ____39____ (facility) on board and little access ____40____ digital entertainment as they do now. Staying with the same small group for half a year can be mentally challenging. Thus, thorough health examinations and attentive psychological comfort ____41____ (be) essential to keep the members in good condition for continuous and safe polar scientific research.

43. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Coach Harper announced the school’s Spring Relay and invited families to join practices so everyone could learn the meaning of teamwork. My best friend Ruby immediately pulled me into signing up with Lucas, who was always athletic and energetic. My dad promised to attend every practice, calling himself our “team booster”.
On the first day, practices soon filled with energy. Ruby’s dad, Lucas’s mom, and my dad cheered for us. Coach Harper taught us basic techniques, such as gentle stretching movements and steady breathing techniques. I wasn’t sure how well I could run, but joining with friends and family felt like stepping into a warm adventure.
After our first training session, Coach Harper saw my dad carrying a special whistle in his hand, which was given by my granddad, a retired PE teacher. Then he borrowed it for our practice.
Before each run, Coach Harper blew the whistle regularly, as if rhythm helped him guide us. I watched this habit with a small smile, and it reminded me of my granddad. Passing the baton (接力棒) felt tricky at first, but my dad kept repeating, “Trust the hands waiting for you.”
Coach Harper added new tasks as we improved. First, we ran in a slow turn. Then we jumped lightly on soft ground before giving the baton. Ruby laughed the whole time, and Lucas wrote down our times. Parents helped prepare the track and cheered for us, making me feel braver each day.
One afternoon, Coach Harper announced that the official relay would include a “family-assist moment”, but he didn’t say what form it would take. Ruby guessed cheering signs, and Lucas guessed little bells. My dad showed a yellow ribbon (丝带) he planned to wave on race day and said that he would run “one heroic lap”, which I treated as a joke. I only knew our practices became smoother each week.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The race day arrived.

【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文,文章主要讲述留学生俊二赴法国小镇进行一学期交换的跨文化适应经历。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“yet one concern stood apart: a fear that it would be tough to fit in with the new eating pattern(但有一件事却格外引人关注:他担心自己很难适应新的饮食习惯)”可知,他最初最特别的担忧是无法适应当地的饮食习惯。故选D。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“He just pointed to a golden cake, and the baker, a woman named Sylvie, stopped for a moment and then served him in silence. When Junji paid, he said, “Thanks!” Sylvie replied with a phrase “S’il vous plaît”. (他只是指着一块金黄色的蛋糕,面包师一位名叫Sylvie的女士停顿了一下,然后默默地为他服务。当俊二付款时,他说道:“谢谢!”Sylvie则回答了一句“S’il vous plaît”。)”可知,在面包店的场景中,俊二只是指了指蛋糕,付钱时说了“Thanks”,面包师用“S’il vous plaît”(请)回应,这暗示俊二缺少了基本的问候。结合后文“Moreau explained that in France, entering a home or beginning a conversation without the formality of “Bonjour” was often perceived not as a simple mistake, but as disrespect.(莫罗解释说,在法国,如果在进入某人家中或开始交谈时没有以“你好”这样的礼节性问候开场,人们往往不会将其视为一个简单的错误,而是认为这是一种不尊重的表现)”莫罗夫人对“Bonjour”重要性的解释,可以推断他的错误在于没有用“Bonjour”等正式用语问候面包师。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Junji, wanting to be polite, declined with a wave of his hand, a gesture he considered perfectly friendly. Gaston seemed taken aback and grew so awkward.(俊二出于礼貌,挥手拒绝了,他认为这个动作表现得非常友好。加斯顿显得很惊讶,变得非常尴尬)”以及莫罗夫人的解释“Later, Moreau explained that dealing with such an offer from an elder like that could be misinterpreted as rejecting friendship and community.(后来,莫罗解释说,面对像这样来自长辈的提议,可能会被误解为拒绝建立友谊和社区关系)”可知,加斯顿尴尬是因为俊二拒绝了他分享酒的好意,这在当地文化中被视为拒绝友谊。故选C。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,结合最后一段“It was then that Junji understood. His challenge was about decoding a whole new set of unwritten rules. He realized that learning to read the hidden intentions that floated beneath the surface of every interaction was crucial.(就在那时,俊二明白了。他的挑战在于解读一系列全新的不成文规则。他意识到,学会解读每一项互动背后潜藏的意图是至关重要的)”可知,俊二的经历说明了由于不了解当地的文化规范(如何问候、如何回应邀请),导致了误解和尴尬。这最直接地表明了文化差异对人际交流的影响。故选A。
New research from neuroscientists at Trinity College Dublin shows that babies as young as two months old may have certain ability that appears far earlier than scientists previously believed.
Working with the Coombe and Rotunda Hospitals in Dublin, the FOUNDCOG team recruited (招募) 130 infants who were all two months old. Each baby lay comfortably on a soft beanbag while wearing sound-cancelling headphones and viewing bright, colorful images designed to hold their attention for 15-20 minutes. This setup allowed researchers to use functional MRI (fMRI) to record patterns of brain activity as the babies looked at images from 12 familiar visual categories such as cat, bird, rubber duck, and tree. After collecting the brain scans (扫描), the team used AImodels to look into how different visual categories were represented in the infant brain.
It should be noted that although at two months, infants’ communication is limited by a lack of language and fine motor control, their minds are already not only representing how things look, but figuring out which category they belong to. This shows that the foundations of visual cognition (认知) are already in place from very early on — and much earlier than expected. They can already organize what they see into distinct object categories. Parents and scientists have long wondered what goes on in a baby’s mind and what they actually see when they view the world around them. “This research highlights the richness of brain function in the first year of life,” explains Dr. ClionaO’Doherty, the study’s lead author.
The findings help clarify what is happening inside a baby’s brain long before speech or intentional movement is possible. By studying how they do this, we hope to inspire a new generation of AI models that learn more efficiently, thus reducing their economic and environmental costs. This study provides new foundational knowledge, which will help guide early-years education and inspire more biologically-grounded approaches in AI.

【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“This shows that the foundations of visual cognition are already in place from very early on — and much earlier than expected. They can already organize what they see into distinct object categories. (这表明视觉认知的基础在很早的时候就已经形成了——而且比预期的要早得多。他们已经能够将所看到的事物组织成不同的物体类别。)”可知,研究发现婴儿很早就具备了将看到的物体进行分类的能力。故选C。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“By studying how they do this, we hope to inspire a new generation of AI models that learn more efficiently, thus reducing their economic and environmental costs. (通过研究他们是如何做到这一点的,我们希望启发新一代学习效率更高的人工智能模型,从而降低其经济和环境成本。)”可知,这项研究将促进更高效的人工智能模型的发展。故选B。
Bathrooms are naturally damp and steamy. Even with regular cleaning, moisture (潮湿) stays around. Among work, family, and a social life, cleaning every wall hard daily is almost impossible. And that’s exactly when mold (霉菌) takes the opportunity to grow.
Recently, a friend noticed yellow stuff falling down her bathroom walls. Naturally, I panicked and wanted answers fast. ____12____ Its tiny particles (颗粒) float through the air and settle in damp spots. Once there, mold spreads rapidly.
____13____ Certain types can cause allergic reactions, breathing issues, and long-lasting health problems if left unchecked. Bathrooms, with their constant moisture, are prime breeding grounds. Mold grows well in warm, damp conditions. After a shower, steam turns to water on walls and ceilings. ____14____ Mold often starts in corners or near pipe parts, then spreads quickly if ignored.
The key to prevention is controlling moisture. Let fresh air into your bathroom by opening a window or running an exhaust fan during and after showers. ____15____ If mold already appears, act fast. For surfaces that don’t absorb water, a bleach and water mix works well. For hard-to remove mold or chemical sensitivities, vinegar and a hydrogen-based cleaning liquid are safer choices. Always wear gloves and a mask to protect your skin and lungs.
Keeping your bathroom clean and dry is the best defense. Let fresh air in regularly, clean frequently, and consider a machine that reduces dampness in damp areas. If the problem gets out of hand, calling professionals is wise. ____16____
A. Mold isn’t just ugly — it’s dangerous.
B. Without proper airflow, this moisture stays around.
C. Even with good airflow, moisture doesn’t go away.
D. Mold grows wherever moisture, meets organic matter.
E. Wipe surfaces sometimes, especially areas easy to get wet.
F. Dry surfaces regularly, especially those likely to get water drops.
G. Maintaining a clean environment ensures a healthy home for everyone.

43. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Coach Harper announced the school’s Spring Relay and invited families to join practices so everyone could learn the meaning of teamwork. My best friend Ruby immediately pulled me into signing up with Lucas, who was always athletic and energetic. My dad promised to attend every practice, calling himself our “team booster”.
On the first day, practices soon filled with energy. Ruby’s dad, Lucas’s mom, and my dad cheered for us. Coach Harper taught us basic techniques, such as gentle stretching movements and steady breathing techniques. I wasn’t sure how well I could run, but joining with friends and family felt like stepping into a warm adventure.
After our first training session, Coach Harper saw my dad carrying a special whistle in his hand, which was given by my granddad, a retired PE teacher. Then he borrowed it for our practice.
Before each run, Coach Harper blew the whistle regularly, as if rhythm helped him guide us. I watched this habit with a small smile, and it reminded me of my granddad. Passing the baton (接力棒) felt tricky at first, but my dad kept repeating, “Trust the hands waiting for you.”
Coach Harper added new tasks as we improved. First, we ran in a slow turn. Then we jumped lightly on soft ground before giving the baton. Ruby laughed the whole time, and Lucas wrote down our times. Parents helped prepare the track and cheered for us, making me feel braver each day.
One afternoon, Coach Harper announced that the official relay would include a “family-assist moment”, but he didn’t say what form it would take. Ruby guessed cheering signs, and Lucas guessed little bells. My dad showed a yellow ribbon (丝带) he planned to wave on race day and said that he would run “one heroic lap”, which I treated as a joke. I only knew our practices became smoother each week.
注意:

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
The race day arrived. The sun hung high, and the track glowed under its rays. Families filled the stands, their cheers mixing with the buzz of excitement. Coach Harper finally revealed the “family-assist moment”: each team’s parent would join the last lap with the final runner. My eyes widened — Dad wasn’t joking about his “heroic lap” after all. As the whistle blew, Ruby sprinted off first, her dad waving a homemade sign. Lucas took the baton next, his mom calling out his best times. When I grabbed the baton from Lucas, Dad’s voice rang out: “Trust the hands waiting for you.”
The finish came quickly. As I neared the final stretch, Dad appeared beside me, the yellow ribbon fluttering in his hand. “Run with me, kiddo!” he shouted. We picked up speed together, the crowd roaring in our ears. I could see Ruby and Lucas cheering wildly at the finish line. When we crossed the line hand in hand, we collapsed into breathless laughter. Coach Harper blew my granddad’s whistle, and warmth flooded my chest. We didn’t win first place, but as we huddled as team and family, I knew we’d won something far more precious: the unbreakable bond of trust and togetherness.
