B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了本市为应对居民日常通勤不便和家庭出行成本高的问题，推出的社区共享出行项目，涵盖项目提供的车辆类型、收费标准、预订归还规则以及适用人群等具体信息。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“To directly address residents’ practical travel challenges like inconvenient daily commutes (通勤) and high family trip costs, our city has launched the Community Shared Mobility Program.(为直接解决居民日常通勤不便和家庭出行成本高这些实际出行难题，我市推出了社区共享出行项目。)”可知，该项目旨在解决居民的出行问题。故选C项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据Program Details部分中“E-bikes & e-scooters，Peak season $ 8”和Note中的“The peak season is during official holidays and summer vacation (June 15 to August 31) ”，以及Book & Return中的“Book at least 1 hour ahead, with a maximum usage of 8-hour per trip. Overtime is charged at 1.5x the hourly rate and billed by the hour.(需提前至少1小时预订，单次使用最长8小时。超时部分按每小时费率的1.5倍收费，按小时计费。)”可知，7月属于旺季，电动自行车每小时8美元，租用8.5小时，其中8小时按原价计费，0.5小时按超时计费（按1小时算，8×1.5=12美元），总费用为8×8+12=76美元。故选D项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Who Can Join?”部分中的“A comprehensive instruction book is provided on the official app for all first-time registrants.(官方应用程序为所有首次注册者提供一份全面的使用指南。)”可知，该项目的新用户会得到一份详细的使用指南。故选B项。 B “Are you still climbing all those stairs?” The question comes after friends say, “You’re looking good,” considerately not adding, “for your age.” “Yup. Still tapping up and down.” I do a little soft shoe dancing for emphasis. “Just like Shirley Temple and Bill Whatzisname in that musical years ago.” They shake their heads. Same old question, same old response. They’ve been joking with us about our hardwood stairs ever since we bought this old farmhouse 50 years ago. There were three flights, one from the main floor bending to the second, a narrow flight to the third — floor rooms, and narrow stairs down to the basement. The stairs didn’t seem a problem when we moved in. We were younger, livelier and ran up and down many times a day without concern. Though as we grew older, carrying a load of freshly washed clothes from the basement to the third floor could be tiring and we’d have to pause to catch our breath on the landings. Our daughter brought a friend over to meet the “old folks at home” and on his very first visit he looked up at the stairs and said, “These could be dangerous. Have you ever thought about putting rubber treads (橡胶踏板) on them?” We did so at the request of my daughter, but we removed them later because they were dust collectors. Our son, home from the West Coast for a visit but really to check on his aging parents, suggested, “You might investigate one of those lifts where you sit down, press a button and rise up.” “What happens if there’s a power failure?” we protested. “And our legs have weakened because of no exercise.” Some people run, some drive to the gym, and others wear watches to count their steps. But a few trips up and down stairs after breakfast get my blood flowing and the muscles working and I’m set for the day. Occasionally my back aches and I’m reduced to a snail’s pace. But speed is no longer a priority. 4. What is the author’s actual intention by responding to her friends in that manner? A. Show her good physical condition. B. Defend her daily habit of using stairs. C. Stop them from asking the same question. D. Share her happy childhood memories. 5. What troubles the author’s children most about the stairs? A. Their safety risks. B. Their tiring nature. C. Their narrow structure. D. Their dust problems. 6. How do the stairs benefit the author? A. They help her keep daily routine. B. They serve as a reminder of her past. C. They help her stay active and mobile. D. They strengthen her family bond. 7. What sort of person is the author? A. Athletic and humble. B. Sensitive and traditional. C. Practical and economical. D. Determined and independent. 【答案】4. B 5. A 6. C 7. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者对爬楼梯的坚持以及家人对此的看法，展现了作者独立坚定的性格和对生活的积极态度。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段““Yup. Still tapping up and down.” I do a little soft shoe dancing for emphasis. “Just like Shirley Temple and Bill Whatzisname in that musical years ago.”(“是的，还在上下爬楼梯。”我轻轻地跺着脚以示强调。“就像多年前音乐剧里的秀兰·邓波儿和比尔·什么名字一样。”)”以及第三段“They shake their heads. Same old question, same old response.(他们摇摇头。同样的老问题，同样的老回答)”可知，作者以幽默的方式回应朋友，意在维护自己日常爬楼梯的习惯。故选B项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Our daughter brought a friend over to meet the “old folks at home” and on his very first visit he looked up at the stairs and said, “These could be dangerous. Have you ever thought about putting rubber treads (橡胶踏板) on them?”(我们的女儿带了一个朋友来见家里的“老人”，他第一次来访时抬头看了看楼梯，说：“这些可能很危险。你有没有想过在上面装橡胶踏板？”)”以及第六段“Our son, home from the West Coast for a visit but really to check on his aging parents, suggested, “You might investigate one of those lifts where you sit down, press a button and rise up.”(我们的儿子从西海岸回家探亲，实际上是来探望年迈的父母，他建议说：“你可以考虑一下那种坐上去，按一下按钮就能升起来的电梯。”)”可知，作者的孩子们最担心的是楼梯的安全风险。故选A项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第七段“But a few trips up and down stairs after breakfast get my blood flowing and the muscles working and I’m set for the day. (但是早餐后上下楼梯几次就能让我的血液流动，肌肉工作，我就能准备好迎接一天了)”可知，楼梯有助于作者保持活跃和行动能力。故选C项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Some people run, some drive to the gym, and others wear watches to count their steps. But a few trips up and down stairs after breakfast get my blood flowing and the muscles working and I’m set for the day. Occasionally my back aches and I’m reduced to a snail’s pace. But speed is no longer a priority. (有些人跑步，有些人开车去健身房，还有些人戴手表来计算步数。但是早餐后上下楼梯几次就能让我的血液流动，肌肉工作，我就能准备好迎接一天了。偶尔我的背会疼，我只能像蜗牛一样慢慢地走。但速度不再是首要考虑的了)”可知，作者坚持自己的生活方式，不受他人影响，表现出坚定和独立的性格。故选D项。 C An economist, Adam Smith, famously wrote, “It is not from the kindness of the butcher, the brewer (酿酒人) or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest.” Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self - interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies. Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future. Firstly, cooperation is an especially prized soft skill in the present age. As a study proves, soft skills such as good communication and empathy (共情) are better indicators of outstanding employees than technical skills or knowledge. In contrast, extremely competitive and individualistic behavior may damage social relations in the community of co - workers. Even the most competent employee may fail to pursue his goals effectively without others’ help. Moreover, encouraging cooperation can boost children’s self - respect that better prepares them for the competitive world. Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform has infiltrated both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people. Teamwork can help an individual realize each has his or her own unique abilities and that another person’s strengths don’t discount his or her talents. Thus, cooperation can confirm children’s self - worth by correcting the insight that winning or the paper achievement is the only measure of success. However, critics may claim adapting to competition should be given priority in education and parenting. To achieve one’s ambitions, one has to actively fight for opportunities and distinguish oneself from others. Nevertheless, since passion can already stimulate children to fulfill their ambitions, the need to encourage competition may be at the end of the day. As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays a vital role in helping one uncover one’s motivation. 8. What can be inferred from Adam Smith’s words? A. Our society is increasingly interconnected. B. Our dinner is made out of the regard to markets. C. Self - interest pushes the development of economies. D. The butcher, the brewer or the baker is not sympathetic. 9. What does the underlined word “infiltrated” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Brightened. B. Decorated. C. Defended. D. Entered. 10. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Competition is the main source of motivation for children. B. One’s ambitions can be achieved through cooperation. C. Paper achievement is the primary measure of success. D Actively fighting for opportunities should be prioritized. 11. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Self-Interest in Modern Economies. B. Boosting Cooperation in Children. C. Redefining Success in Classrooms. D. Rethinking Competition in Education. 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章引用亚当·斯密观点引出合作的重要性，论述了合作是当下珍贵的软技能、能提升孩子自尊，还反驳了应优先适应竞争的观点，表明应鼓励合作以让孩子更好面对未来。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中“An economist, Adam Smith, famously wrote, ‘It is not from the kindness of the butcher, the brewer (酿酒人) or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest.’ Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self - interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies. (经济学家亚当·斯密曾写道：“我们期望晚餐不是来自屠夫、酿酒师或面包师的仁慈，而是来自他们对自己利益的关注。”和斯密一样，如今许多经济学家认为，个人利益是推动市场经济竞争和增长的动力。)”可知，从亚当·斯密的话中可以推断出个人利益推动经济的发展。故选C项。 【9题详解】 词义猜测题。根据文章第三段中“Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform has infiltrated both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people. (许多现代社会都被对成功的疯狂追求所吞噬，这种压力已经_____教室和办公室，导致人们焦虑和抑郁的比例上升。)”可知，压力已经进入教室和办公室，导致人们焦虑和抑郁的比例上升，所以“infiltrated”意思是“进入”。D选项“Entered(进入)”与划线词意思相近。故选D项。 【10题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays a vital role in helping one uncover one’s motivation. (尽管外部竞争可以促使人们追求卓越，但内在动机至少同样重要，甚至更为重要，而合作在帮助一个人发现自己的动机方面起着至关重要的作用。)”可知，作者认为合作有助于一个人发现自己的动机，从而帮助实现自己的抱负。故选B项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段中“Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future. (然而，在一个日益互联的社会中，拥有合作技能更为关键。因此，我们应该鼓励合作，让孩子们更好地为未来做好准备。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了合作的重要性，特别是在现代社会中，合作技能对于孩子们的未来至关重要。因此，B选项“Boosting Cooperation in Children (增强孩子们的合作能力)”符合题意。故选B项。 D As more and more reptilian (爬行类的) species are threatened by habitat loss, scientists and conservationists say that recognizing reptiles’ capability for emotion can help pet owners and policymakers alike take better care of them. When you hear the words “reptilian” or “cold-blooded”, the first thing that comes to mind might be an uncaring boss. That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. But scientists agree that they’re misunderstood. This misbelief largely arises from the concept of the “reptilian brain”. The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (本能). According to this misconception, the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental “reptilian brain”, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. Some researchers long believed that without humanlike brain structures, reptiles didn’t have the capability for emotions at all. Still, scientists have consistently disproven this theory. One study found that handling lizards caused an increase in their heart rate, indicating an emotional response. Another found that red-footed tortoises exhibited anxiety-like behavior when placed in a new environment. Even as research continues to build, the stereotypes (刻板印象) around reptilian emotions remain. Some research has revealed part of the reason. In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. Our tendency to dismiss reptiles isn’t just psychological — it’s impacted the level of habitat protections they’re afforded. Apodaca, a conservationist from Amphibian and Reptile Conservancy, says he’s noticed gaps in species recovery funding for reptiles vs. mammals, birds, and fish. However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. 12. What is a common misunderstanding about the reptile? A. They are threatened by habitat loss. B. They are well attended by pet owners. C. They are emotionally cold-blooded. D. They are associated with uncaring people. 13. Which behaviour is managed by the “reptilian brain”? A. Jumping at a sudden noise. B. Recalling a childhood memory. C. Drawing a complicated mind - map. D. Feeling anxious in a new environment. 14. What is a cause of the stereotypes about reptiles? A. They tend to release harmful chemicals. B. They seldom interact within their species. C. They show emotions differently than humans. D. They have frightening physical characteristics. 15. What is Apodaca’s attitude to the current reptile protection? A. Hopeful. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Cautious. 【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了人们对爬行动物情感能力的误解，以及这种误解对爬行动物保护的影响，同时指出人们对爬行动物保护的认识正在提高。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. But scientists agree that they’re misunderstood. (这是因为几十年来，爬行动物一直被认为是冷酷无情的生物。但是科学家们也认为它们被误解了)”可知，人们对爬行动物的常见误解是它们情感冷漠。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (本能) . According to this misconception, the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental “reptilian brain”, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. (这个术语指的是我们大脑中用于生存本能的部分。根据这种误解，人类大脑随着时间的推移，通过在这个基本的“爬行动物大脑”上逐渐增加更复杂的结构而进化，包括边缘系统，这是我们情感的来源)”可知，“爬行动物大脑”管理的是生存本能相关的行为。故选A。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. (2021年，研究人员发现蜥蜴会释放化学物质来相互交流，这意味着它们比哺乳动物更难读懂。人类更有可能对与我们有身体和情感特征的动物表示同情，这就是为什么许多人可能对狗和猫比对乌龟有更深入的了解)”可知，人们对爬行动物的刻板印象是因为它们表达情感的方式与人类不同。故选C。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. (然而，他也注意到人们对爬行动物保护需求的认识有了巨大提高——这一发展可能对未来几年对抗栖息地丧失至关重要)”可推知，Apodaca对当前的爬行动物保护持乐观态度。故选A。 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。 In writing, a stereotype (刻板印象) is an oversimplified and widely accepted idea about a type of person, group, or situation. Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful. ____16____ Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes: Character Development: Go Beyond First Impressions ____17____ A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists (转折) — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems. Plot Structure: Avoid Predictable Storylines We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending. ____18____ Try going against expectations: maybe the chosen one fails, or the happy ending comes with unexpected costs. Readers appreciate fresh takes on familiar situations. Descriptive Writing: Show, Don’t Tell Emotions Simple labels like “she was nervous” can describe a feeling but often make a character seem dull and cliched (陈词滥调的). Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable. ____19____ Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic. ____20____ The most memorable stories are those that find new ways to express universal truths. A. Aim to surprise, but stay grounded. B. Such stories follow overly familiar paths. C. However, they often take away a story’s depth. D. Therefore, they serve as a powerful tool in writing. E. By doing so, you let readers feel rather than just read it. F. Real people are complex, so your creations should be too. G. After all, most readers prefer plots that are easy to follow. 【答案】16. C 17. F 18. B 19. E 20. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章聚焦写作中如何突破刻板印象（stereotype），分别从角色塑造、情节构建和情感表达三方面提出具体建议。文章还强调要创造更真实、有层次的文学作品，同时提醒大家避免脱离现实逻辑的反转情节。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful.(刻板印象就是那些看似有用的简单答案)”以及后文“Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes(以下是你可以着力改进的三个关键方面，从而打破刻板印象)”可知，此处需转折说明其弊端。选项C通过“However”承接上文并指出“刻板印象会削弱故事深度”，从而引出主题“如何避免刻板印象”。故选C。 【17题详解】 根据后文“A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists (转折) — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems.(刻板印象会将人物简化为单一的类型——比如“害羞的书迷”或者“脾气暴躁的运动员”。为了使你的角色更加真实且令人难忘，你可以加入一些出人意料的转折——比如一个喜欢冒险运动的书迷，或者一个会写诗的运动员)”可知，本段讨论如何打破对人物的简化印象，需用一句引导句统领整个段落。选项F指出“真实的人物具有复杂性”，紧扣主题“Go Beyond First Impressions”，承上启下，符合语境。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据上文“We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending.(我们总是能看到那些老套的情节：那个被选中的主角以及完美的圆满结局)”可知，本段讲述套路化情节。选项B指出“这类故事情节过于老套”，准确评价并自然引出“Try going against expectations”。故选B。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Simple labels like “she was nervous” can describe a feeling but often make a character seem dull and cliched (陈词滥调的). Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable.(像“她很紧张”这样的简单描述能够表达一种情绪，但往往会让角色显得平淡且落入俗套。相反，通过细节来展现情感，比如“她的手指扭动着，呼吸短促且不均匀”，这样能让人的情感更加鲜活且易于产生共鸣)”可知，前文建议通过细节呈现情感，此处选E“通过这样做，你能让读者产生身临其境的感受，而非仅仅只是阅读而已”说明了这么做的作用。故选E。 【20题详解】 根据上文“Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic.(最后但同样重要的是，避免刻板印象并不意味着要写出不切实际的内容。即便是最富有想象力的创新违背了基本逻辑，也会失去其影响力)”以及后文“The most memorable stories are those that find new ways to express universal truths.(最令人难忘的故事往往是那些以新颖的方式表达出普遍真理的故事)”可知，本段总结全文，强调创新不能脱离现实逻辑。选项A“力求给人带来惊喜，但也要保持脚踏实地”符合语境。故选A。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Having eased my way into the parking lot, I looked through the crowd, but couldn’t find the ____21____ face.

As I approached the restaurant, ____23____ with Teresa came rushing back. We had been close ____24____ for ages. A huge disagreement, however, caused us to ____25____. I often thought of reaching out to her, but then I would think, “If she ____26____, why wouldn’t she get in touch with me?” It was Teresa’s birthday a month before, and that ____27____ me to look for her on social media. She had a common name, but I ____28____ found her photo, with signature broad smile. I ____29____ her, saying how much I’d missed her over the past decade... Finally, I suggested meeting up. When I didn’t hear back, I figured she had something ____30____ in mind. But then she finally reached out, and we ____31____ this lunch. After my third cup of coffee, I ____32____ myself to the fact that Teresa wasn’t coming. No call, no message — maybe it was too late to ____33____ the friendship.

C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述作者与Teresa因分歧断联，借其生日联系并安排见面，久等后她迟到而作者却选择原谅，感慨重拾友谊的美好。 【21题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：我缓缓驶入停车场，在人群中张望，却找不到那张熟悉的面孔。A. sincere真诚的；B. familiar熟悉的；C. honest诚实的；D. cheerful愉快的。根据下文“As I approached the restaurant, 　3　with Teresa came rushing back. We had been close 　4　　 for ages. ”可知，作者与Teresa曾是多年好友，此次是寻找许久未见的她，朋友的面孔应是熟悉的，familiar符合“过往亲密关系带来的熟悉感”这一语境。故选B项。 【22题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：“已经过去太久了，我都走到这一步了，” 我说服自己，然后关掉了引擎。A. challenged挑战；B. forgave原谅；C. awakened唤醒；D. convinced说服。根据上文“I took a deep breath and tried to control my anxiety”可知，作者当时内心焦虑，引号内的内容是作者在给自己打气、打消顾虑，目的是“说服自己坚持赴约”，convinced体现“自我劝服以克服情绪”的动作。故选D项。 【23题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：当我走近餐厅时，关于Teresa的回忆涌上心头。A. memories回忆；B. secrets秘密；C. promises承诺；D. lessons教训。根据下文“We had been close 　4　　for ages. A huge disagreement, however, caused us to 　5　　. ”可知，作者开始回想与Teresa过去的交往经历，这些都是过往的回忆，memories是对后文“过往情谊与矛盾”的概括。故选A项。 【24题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：我们曾经是多年的亲密朋友。A. neighbors邻居；B. roommates室友；C. friends朋友；D. partners伙伴。根据最后一段中“If I hadn’t taken that leap of faith, I would have missed out on a wonderful friendship”可知，作者与Teresa是朋友关系，friendship是friends的同根词复现，明确二者的关系属性。故选C项。 【25题详解】 考查动词短语辨析。句意：然而，一场严重的分歧导致我们断绝了往来。A. break down（机器）出故障、（情绪）崩溃；B. break up结束（关系）；C. break off中断（联系）；D. break out（战争、疾病）爆发。根据上文“A huge disagreement”以及语境可知，这里指作者与Teresa因分歧结束多年好友关系；break off更侧重“临时中断联系”，而文中二人断联多年，break up更能体现“关系彻底结束”的状态，贴合语境。故选B项。 【26题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我常常想联系她，但接着又会想：“如果她在乎（我），为什么不主动联系我呢？”A. sighted看见；B. declined拒绝；C. cared在乎；D. hesitated犹豫。根据下文“why wouldn’t she get in touch with me?”以及语境可知，这里指作者认为如果Teresa在乎，应该会主动联系作者。cared符合“判断对方对关系态度”的逻辑，也是作者犹豫不联系的心理依据。故选C项。 【27题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：一个月前是Teresa的生日，这促使我在社交媒体上寻找她。A. advised建议；B. persuaded说服；C. permitted允许；D. pushed推动、促使。根据上文“It was Teresa’s birthday a month before”以及语境可知，“生日”是触发作者寻找Teresa的契机，推动作者采取行动，pushed侧重“外部因素促使某人做某事”，符合“借生日为由主动寻找”的语境。故选D项。 【28题详解】 考查副词词义辨析。句意：她的名字很常见，但我最终还是找到了她的照片，照片里她面带标志性的灿烂笑容。A. eventually最终；B. technically技术上；C. obviously明显地；D. accidentally偶然地。根据上文“She had a common name”可知，寻找过程存在难度，but表转折，说明尽管有困难，作者还是“经过努力后最终找到”，eventually体现“克服困难后的结果”，与“名字常见”的背景形成对比。故选A项。 【29题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我给她发了消息，说过去十年里我有多想念她…… 最后，我提议见面。A. blamed责怪；B. admired钦佩；C. followed跟随；D. messaged发消息。根据上文“on social media”可知，作者是在社交媒体上找到Teresa，后续“表达思念、提议见面”需通过“发消息”实现，messaged符合“线上沟通”的场景。故选D项。 【30题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：当我没收到回复时，我以为她有别的想法。A. specific具体的；B. particular特别的；C. different不同的；D. urgent紧急的。根据上文“When I didn’t hear back”可知，作者提议见面却未获回复，所以推测Teresa可能对“见面”持不同态度（如不愿见面）；different in mind表 “想法不同”，贴合“对见面提议无回应”的语境，更符合对“未回复”的合理推测。故选C项。 【31题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：但后来她终于联系了我，我们安排了这次午餐。A. served服务；B. arranged安排；C. shared分享；D. celebrated庆祝。根据上文“I suggested meeting up”可知，作者先提议见面，Teresa回复后，二人应是约定好午餐时间地点，arranged体现“从提议到确定见面细节”的动作，是“提议见面”的后续结果。故选B项。 【32题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：喝了第三杯咖啡后，我不得不接受Teresa不会来的事实。A. resigned（to）屈从、接受；B. adjusted（to）适应；C. contained控制；D. defended保卫。根据“After my third cup of coffee”可知，作者已等待许久，从期待逐渐转为失望，最终无奈接受对方不来的事实，resigned to侧重“接受不愿发生但已无法改变的事”，符合“情绪从焦虑到失望的转变”。故选A项。 【33题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：没有电话，没有消息 —— 也许修复这段友谊已经太晚了。A. establish建立；B. examine检查；C. expand扩展；D. repair修复。根据上文“ A huge disagreement, however, caused us to 　5　. ”可知，二人的友谊曾因矛盾中断，此次约见的目的是恢复友谊，repair侧重“修复破损的关系”，与上文“中断的友谊”对应，符合语境。故选D项。 【34题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：就在我买单的时候，Teresa出现了，为自己的迟到和之前没回复消息道歉。A. rudeness粗鲁；B. lateness迟到；C. loneliness孤独；D. sadness悲伤。根据上文“After my third cup of coffee”可知，作者等待了很久，这里指Teresa为自己的迟到而道歉，lateness直接对应“迟迟未到”的场景。故选B项。 【35题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：我在她（道歉）中途打断了她，说：“没关系，你能来我就很高兴了！”A. praised表扬；B. inspired激励；C. stopped打断；D. informed告知。根据下文“her midway”以及语境可知，作者在Teresa还没说完道歉的话时就打断了她，目的是不让对方继续愧疚，stopped体现“中断对方说话” 的动作，符合“急于表达原谅、重视见面本身”的语境。故选C项。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Throughout human history, people have invented all sorts of tools and gadgets (小器械) to understand and keep track of time. Ancient Chinese sundials, known as “rigui”, were important timekeeping devices. These sundials, with a pointer and a time plate, ____36____ (use) to indicate the time of day by the shadow cast by the pointer on the plate. The sundials, particularly those ____37____ (find) in the Forbidden City, were more than just ____38____ time-telling device; the emperor’s power was represented through them to regulate time. In agriculture, accurate timekeeping was crucial for farming activities, such as planting ____39____ harvesting. Ancient Chinese astronomers used sundials to observe phenomena in the sky, ____40____ were believed to be indicators of events in space. In ancient cultures, the ability to measure time ____41____ (precise) was a symbol of power and intelligence. Plus, sundials were commonly used as decorative ____42____ (piece) in public areas and became part of everyday life back then, and their complex designs and engravings (雕刻) also offered a way to showcase cultural values. But maybe the most ____43____ (fascinate) idea is that sundials hold secrets about the universe. The precise position of the pointer and markings on a sundial was viewed ____44____ a reflection of natural order and harmony. It was a way for people ____45____ (connect) with and understand their role in the grand system of things. 【答案】36. were used 37. found 38. a 39. and 40. which 41. precisely 42. pieces 43. fascinating 44. as 45. to connect 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍中国古代日晷的计时功能、文化意义及其体现的宇宙观与人文价值。 【36题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：这些日晷带有指针和晷面，通过指针在晷面上投射的影子来指示一天中的时间。此处为谓语动词，use与主语之间为被动关系，描述过去的被动动作，用一般过去时的被动语态，主语These sundials是复数，所以用were used。故填were used。 【37题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：尤其是在紫禁城中发现的那些日晷，不仅仅是一种计时工具。此处为非谓语动词作定语，those指代sundials，与find为被动关系，所以用过去分词found。故填found。 【38题详解】 考查冠词。句意：尤其是在紫禁城中发现的那些日晷，不仅仅是一种计时工具。device为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一种计时工具”为泛指，且time-telling是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。故填a。 【39题详解】 考查连词。句意：在农业中，精准计时对农耕活动至关重要，比如播种和收割。此处连接planting和harvesting两个并列名词，表示并列关系，所以用连词and。故填and。 【40题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：中国古代天文学家利用日晷观测天象，这些天象被认为是宇宙中的事件的征兆。此处引导非限制性定语从句，先行词phenomena in the sky指物，关系词在从句中作主语，所以用关系代词which。故填which。 【41题详解】 考查副词。句意：在古代文化中，精准测量时间的能力是权力与智慧的象征。此处修饰动词measure，用precise的副词形式precisely意为“精准地”。故填precisely。 【42题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：此外，日晷在当时常被用作公共场所的装饰品，成为日常生活的一部分，而其复杂的设计与雕刻也成为展现文化价值的一种方式。此处被形容词decorative修饰，表示一类事物，应用可数名词复数形式，所以用pieces。故填pieces。 【43题详解】 考查形容词。句意：但最令人着迷的或许是日晷蕴含着宇宙的奥秘。此处修饰名词idea作定语，表示“令人着迷的”，用fascinate的形容词形式fascinating意为“令人着迷的”。故填fascinating。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意：日晷上指针与刻度的精准位置被视为自然秩序与和谐的体现。此处为固定搭配be viewed as，意为“被视为、被看作”，所以用介词as。故填as。 【45题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这是人们与宏大万物体系相连并理解自身位置的一种方式。此处为固定句型a way for sb. to do sth.，意为“某人做某事的方式”，所以用动词不定式to connect作后置定语。故填to connect。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你校英文报“Healthy Living”专栏正在征集稿件。请你以“A Small Change for a Healthier You”为题，写一篇短文投稿。要点包括： 1．提出一个健康小改变； 2．说明具体做法与好处。 注意： 1．词数80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3．短文标题已给出，不计入总词数。 A Small Change for a Healthier You _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】范文 A Small Change for a Healthier You As high school students, we tend to believe that big changes are needed for better health. However, a small but effective change I want to share is to integrate a 10-minute daily walk into our campus routine.

On this particular day, she was guiding them through the process of drawing a scenic landscape. Akila yawned(打哈欠), clearly disinterested - drawing wasn’t her thing. A small group of students gathered around Tina, laughing at her unusual drawing: a sun sporting sunglasses and trees topped with ice cream cones. Mary instructed Tina firmly but with unease, “Draw it the way I showed you.” As the lesson continued, doubt crept into Mary’s mind. Had the joy of creativity been overshadowed by the pressure to fit in? She scanned the room, observing her students’ faces – some concentrated, others uncertain. Akila’s disinterest was clear and Tina’s imaginative drawing had been met with ridicule instead of praise. After class, Mary sat down with Tina, her tone softening, “Why did you draw the sun with sunglasses and the trees with ice creams?” she asked gently. Tina’s eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion (叛逆)-“I love ice cream, and I thought the sun would look cool with sunglasses. Why do we always have to draw like everyone else?” Mary paused, her thoughts racing. Tina’s drawings weren’t just curious —they were a window into a world where imagination ruled, where rales could be bent into delightful chaos. Was she, by enforcing a rigid style, killing that very creativity? The next morning, Mary walked into the classroom with a renewed sense of purpose. She placed a large sheet of paper in front of the class and announced a new project: they would create a collective(集体)artwork titled “Our Dream World” with no rules. They were free to use colors, shapes, and patterns however they wished. At first, the students hesitated, unsure of this newfound freedom. Akila leaned back, skeptical of what seemed like another pointless exercise. But Tina, her creativity no longer restricted, eagerly grabbed her crayons and began to draw with abandon. Then, Maya joined in. And then Michael... 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the students worked, Mary observed them with curiosity. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: As the students worked. Mary observed them with curiosity. She noticed how Akila, initially disinterested, had quietly chosen vibrant colors and was now blending them together to create a swirling sky filled with fantastical creatures that flew over a stone castle. Meanwhile, Tina was enthusiastically adding playful details to her section of the paper-a whimsical garden where flowers wore hats and creatures rested on the ice cream-topped trees. Mary felt a wave of relief washed over her. The room was alive with chatter and laughter, as Akila and Tina frequently exchanged ideas and inspired one another. Akila even leaned over to admire Tina’s ice cream trees and said, “That is mind-blowing!” It was wonderful to see them cooperate, their initial differences melting away in the warmth of shared creativity. Paragraph 2: Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. The enomious canvas had transformed into a magnificent portrayal of each student’s imagination, forming a breathtaking landscape that reflected their individuality yet spoke to their collective spirit. Mary felt a sense of pride swell within her; she realized that in letting go of rigid structures, her students gave their painting an unrealistic but dream-like quality. Akila, Tina, and the rest of the class had not only embraced their own creative paths but had also nurtured each other’s ideas. They were thrilled, “It was the best painting ever! We should definitely hang it on the wall!” Inspired by the moment, Mary decided to host an exhibition of their dream world, inviting parents and other classes to admire the beauty of imagination unleashed in her classroom. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述Mary是小学美术老师，一次课上，她发现Akila对画画不感兴趣，而Tina画得天马行空而遭到同学们嘲笑，最后Mary意识到她限制了孩子们的想象力，所以第二天，Mary宣布将创作一个名为“我们的梦想世界”的集体艺术品，没有任何规则。孩子们可以随意使用颜色、形状和图案。一个接一个，孩子们开始作画了... 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“当学生们画画时，Mary好奇地看着他们”可以预测续写这段主要内容： 孩子们相互帮助完成画作。 ②由第二段首句内容“Mary退后一步，打量着创造的画作。”可以预测续写这段主要内容：Mary对他们的创造力感到惊讶，决定举办画展并邀请他们家长参与。 2.续写线索： Mary看孩子们作画——孩子们对作画表现出兴趣——相互帮助完成画作—— Mary对他们的创造力感到惊讶——决定举办画展 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.鼓舞：inspire/motivate/encourage ②.欣赏： admire/appreciate ③.说：say/utter 情绪类 ①.热情地： enthusiastically/passionately ②.高兴的：thrilled/glad/delighted/happy 【点睛】[高分句型1].

B “Are you still climbing all those stairs?” The question comes after friends say, “You’re looking good,” considerately not adding, “for your age.” “Yup. Still tapping up and down.” I do a little soft shoe dancing for emphasis. “Just like Shirley Temple and Bill Whatzisname in that musical years ago.” They shake their heads. Same old question, same old response. They’ve been joking with us about our hardwood stairs ever since we bought this old farmhouse 50 years ago. There were three flights, one from the main floor bending to the second, a narrow flight to the third — floor rooms, and narrow stairs down to the basement. The stairs didn’t seem a problem when we moved in. We were younger, livelier and ran up and down many times a day without concern. Though as we grew older, carrying a load of freshly washed clothes from the basement to the third floor could be tiring and we’d have to pause to catch our breath on the landings. Our daughter brought a friend over to meet the “old folks at home” and on his very first visit he looked up at the stairs and said, “These could be dangerous. Have you ever thought about putting rubber treads (橡胶踏板) on them?” We did so at the request of my daughter, but we removed them later because they were dust collectors. Our son, home from the West Coast for a visit but really to check on his aging parents, suggested, “You might investigate one of those lifts where you sit down, press a button and rise up.” “What happens if there’s a power failure?” we protested. “And our legs have weakened because of no exercise.” Some people run, some drive to the gym, and others wear watches to count their steps. But a few trips up and down stairs after breakfast get my blood flowing and the muscles working and I’m set for the day. Occasionally my back aches and I’m reduced to a snail’s pace. But speed is no longer a priority. 4. What is the author’s actual intention by responding to her friends in that manner? A. Show her good physical condition. B. Defend her daily habit of using stairs. C. Stop them from asking the same question. D. Share her happy childhood memories. 5. What troubles the author’s children most about the stairs? A. Their safety risks. B. Their tiring nature. C. Their narrow structure. D Their dust problems. 6. How do the stairs benefit the author? A. They help her keep daily routine. B. They serve as a reminder of her past. C. They help her stay active and mobile. D. They strengthen her family bond. 7. What sort of person is the author? A. Athletic and humble. B. Sensitive and traditional. C. Practical and economical. D. Determined and independent. C An economist, Adam Smith, famously wrote, “It is not from the kindness of the butcher, the brewer (酿酒人) or the baker, that we expect our dinner, but from their regard to their own interest.” Like Smith, many economists today believe one’s self - interest is what drives competition and growth in market economies. Yet, in an increasingly interconnected society, it is even more crucial to have cooperative skills. Thus we should encourage cooperation to better prepare children for the future. Firstly, cooperation is an especially prized soft skill in the present age. As a study proves, soft skills such as good communication and empathy (共情) are better indicators of outstanding employees than technical skills or knowledge. In contrast, extremely competitive and individualistic behavior may damage social relations in the community of co - workers. Even the most competent employee may fail to pursue his goals effectively without others’ help. Moreover, encouraging cooperation can boost children’s self - respect that better prepares them for the competitive world. Many modern societies are consumed by a crazy drive for success and the pressure to perform has infiltrated both classrooms and offices, causing higher rates of anxiety and depression among people. Teamwork can help an individual realize each has his or her own unique abilities and that another person’s strengths don’t discount his or her talents. Thus, cooperation can confirm children’s self - worth by correcting the insight that winning or the paper achievement is the only measure of success. However, critics may claim adapting to competition should be given priority in education and parenting. To achieve one’s ambitions, one has to actively fight for opportunities and distinguish oneself from others. Nevertheless, since passion can already stimulate children to fulfill their ambitions, the need to encourage competition may be at the end of the day. As much as external competition can drive people to pursue excellence, internal motivation is at least equally or even more essential, and cooperation plays a vital role in helping one uncover one’s motivation. 8. What can be inferred from Adam Smith’s words? A. Our society is increasingly interconnected. B. Our dinner is made out of the regard to markets. C. Self - interest pushes the development of economies. D. The butcher, the brewer or the baker is not sympathetic. 9. What does the underlined word “infiltrated” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Brightened. B. Decorated. C. Defended. D. Entered. 10. Which of the following might the author agree with? A. Competition is the main source of motivation for children. B. One’s ambitions can be achieved through cooperation. C. Paper achievement is the primary measure of success. D. Actively fighting for opportunities should be prioritized. 11.

D As more and more reptilian (爬行类的) species are threatened by habitat loss, scientists and conservationists say that recognizing reptiles’ capability for emotion can help pet owners and policymakers alike take better care of them. When you hear the words “reptilian” or “cold-blooded” the first thing that comes to mind might be an uncaring boss. That’s because for decades, reptiles have been characterized as cold and emotionless creatures. But scientists agree that they’re misunderstood. This misbelief largely arises from the concept of the “reptilian brain”. The term refers to the parts of the human brain that we use for survival instincts (本能). According to this misconception, the human brain evolved over time by adding progressively more complicated structures to this fundamental “reptilian brain”, including the limbic system, which is the source of our emotions. Some researchers long believed that without humanlike brain structures, reptiles didn’t have the capability for emotions at all. Still, scientists have consistently disproven this theory. One study found that handling lizards caused an increase in their heart rate, indicating an emotional response. Another found that red-footed tortoises exhibited anxiety-like behavior when placed in a new environment. Even as research continues to build, the stereotypes (刻板印象) around reptilian emotions remain. Some research has revealed part of the reason. In 2021, researchers found that lizards give out chemicals to communicate with each other, meaning they’re much harder to read than mammals. Humans are more likely to show sympathy for animals that share physical and emotional characteristics with us, which is why many people might have a deeper understanding of dogs and cats than of turtles, for instance. Our tendency to dismiss reptiles isn’t just psychological — it’s impacted the level of habitat protections they’re afforded. Apodaca a conservationist from Amphibian and Reptile Conservancy, says he’s noticed gaps in species recovery funding for reptiles vs. mammals, birds, and fish. However, he’s also noticed a huge increase in awareness of reptiles’ conservation needs — a development which could prove crucial to fighting habitat loss in the coming years. 12. What is a common misunderstanding about the reptile? A. They are threatened by habitat loss. B. They are well attended by pet owners. C. They are emotionally cold-blooded. D.

D. Feeling anxious in a new environment. 14. What is a cause of the stereotypes about reptiles? A. They tend to release harmful chemicals. B. They seldom interact within their species. C. They show emotions differently than humans. D. They have frightening physical characteristics. 15. What is Apodaca’s attitude to the current reptile protection? A. Hopeful. B. Critical. C. Doubtful. D. Cautious. 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。 In writing, a stereotype (刻板印象) is an oversimplified and widely accepted idea about a type of person, group, or situation. Stereotypes are easy answers that may seem useful. ____16____ Here are three key areas you can work on to go beyond stereotypes: Character Development: Go Beyond First Impressions ____17____ A stereotype turns a character into a simple type — like the “shy book lover” or the “angry sports player”. To make your characters more realistic and memorable, you might add surprising twists (转折) — a book lover who enjoys risky sports, or an athlete who writes poems. Plot Structure: Avoid Predictable Storylines We see the same old plots again and again: the chosen one and the perfect happy ending. ____18____ Try going against expectations: maybe the chosen one fails, or the happy ending comes with unexpected costs. Readers appreciate fresh takes on familiar situations. Descriptive Writing: Show, Don’t Tell Emotions Simple labels like “she was nervous” can describe a feeling but often make a character seem dull and cliched (陈词滥调的). Instead, bring emotions to life through details, such as “her fingers twisted, and her breath was short and uneven”. This technique makes emotions come alive and relatable. ____19____ Last but not least, avoiding stereotypes doesn’t mean writing something unrealistic. Even the most imaginative twists lose power if they violate basic logic. ____20____ The most memorable stories are those that find new ways to express universal truths. A. Aim to surprise, but stay grounded. B. Such stories follow overly familiar paths. C. However, they often take away a story’s depth. D. Therefore, they serve as a powerful tool in writing. E. By doing so, you let readers feel rather than just read it. F. Real people are complex, so your creations should be too. G. After all, most readers prefer plots that are easy to follow. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Having eased my way into the parking lot, I looked through the crowd, but couldn’t find the ____21____ face.

On this particular day, she was guiding them through the process of drawing a scenic landscape. Akila yawned(打哈欠), clearly disinterested - drawing wasn’t her thing. A small group of students gathered around Tina, laughing at her unusual drawing: a sun sporting sunglasses and trees topped with ice cream cones. Mary instructed Tina firmly but with unease, “Draw it the way I showed you.” As the lesson continued, doubt crept into Mary’s mind. Had the joy of creativity been overshadowed by the pressure to fit in? She scanned the room, observing her students’ faces – some concentrated, others uncertain. Akila’s disinterest was clear and Tina’s imaginative drawing had been met with ridicule instead of praise. After class, Mary sat down with Tina, her tone softening, “Why did you draw the sun with sunglasses and the trees with ice creams?” she asked gently. Tina’s eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion (叛逆)-“I love ice cream, and I thought the sun would look cool with sunglasses. Why do we always have to draw like everyone else?” Mary paused her thoughts racing. Tina’s drawings weren’t just curious —they were a window into a world where imagination ruled, where rales could be bent into delightful chaos. Was she, by enforcing a rigid style, killing that very creativity? The next morning, Mary walked into the classroom with a renewed sense of purpose. She placed a large sheet of paper in front of the class and announced a new project: they would create a collective(集体的)artwork titled “Our Dream World” with no rules. They were free to use colors, shapes, and patterns however they wished. At first, the students hesitated, unsure of this newfound freedom. Akila leaned back, skeptical of what seemed like another pointless exercise. But Tina, her creativity no longer restricted, eagerly grabbed her crayons and began to draw with abandon. Then, Maya joined in. And then Michael... 注意: 1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右; 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 As the students worked, Mary observed them with curiosity. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
