Back in 2003, Erica Hernandez was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach. They overheard a plan to build a processing station for natural gas 14 miles off the coast of Oxnard. The plant would send over 200 tons of air pollution per year to Erica’s community. Not only that, the station would take in millions of gallons of seawater per day to cool its generators, and discharge the water more than 15 degrees centigrade hotter than the surrounding ocean. This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem, killing tiny creatures and small fish critical to the survival of marine mammals and fisheries.
Erica cared too much to stay silent. She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company. Prospects of stopping the project did not look good. The governor was in favor of it, and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it. “The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do.”
Behind the scenes, however, opposition was growing, so Erica became the spokesperson for the youth of the town. She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipeline, using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses. She talked to the media, and stories about the dangers of the proposed facility began appearing in the press. “We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea.” In July 2007, the governor made an unexpected move: He turned down the project. Erica and her friends won!
As only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. She likes to quote the words of her role model, César Chávez: “We are the future. The future is ours.”
24. What can be learned about the to-be-built processing station?
A. It is climate-damaging. B. It is ecologically-unfriendly.
C. It provides energy to the locals. D. It uses seawater-driven generators.
25. Why does the author mention the governor?
A. To express Erica’s desperate mood. B. To show the great barriers Erica faced.
C. To stress the support from the government. D. To blame the protest on the official’s inaction.
26. Which of the following can best describe Erica?
A. Creative and industrious. B. Pioneering and curious.
C. Determined and responsible. D. Adventurous and talkative.
27. What message is mainly conveyed through Erica’s story?
A. Courage is always rewarded in the end.
B. Success depends on teamwork and cooperation.
C. Young people can bring about change by speaking up.
D. Environmental protection should come before economic development.
C
People have become used to living with AI fairly quickly, which has changed the way many of us communicate or deal with information. It has also led to serious concerns about jobs. Surely mass unemployment is coming soon?
But economic data tell a different story: EU unemployment is at a historical low of around 6%, half the level of ten years ago; the UK’s is even lower at 5.1%, roughly the level of the fast-growing early 2000s; that of the US is lower still at 4.4%. Jobs remain plentiful because technology creates new types of jobs.
But yes, AI will take away some jobs. A third of Americans worry they will lose theirs to AI, and many of them will be right. Since the industrial revolution, a wave of innovations has fueled extraordinary exponential economic growth. However, AI, like the computer, the internet, or the railways, is a slow revolution. And just as there has been no immediate AI boom when it comes to economic growth, there is no immediate change in employment. What we see instead are largely firms using AI as an excuse for standard job-cutting exercises. This then leads to a different question about how AI will affect the meaning of our jobs.
Another question raised by AI is whether it will reduce or increase the inequality between workers. At first, many thought that allowing everyone to use an AI assistant with skills in processing information or clear communication would decrease earning inequality. But other recent research found the opposite, with highly skilled businessmen gaining the most from using AI support. One reason for this is that taking advice is a skill in itself. In my own research with colleagues, we found that giving chess players top-quality advice does little to close the gap between the best and the worst because lower-ability players were less likely to follow high-quality advice. And perhaps that’s the biggest risk AI brings: that some people may benefit from it much more than others.
28. What do the economic data show?
A. Mass unemployment is coming soon.
B. EU unemployment is higher than America’s.
C. Technology has cut job opportunities sharply.
D. The UK’s unemployment matches the 1990s level.
29. What does the underlined word “exponential” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Rapid. B. Steady. C. Irregular. D. Unbalanced.
30. What can we infer about companies’ job cuts?
A. They result from AI’s direct influence.
B. They are often done under the excuse of AI.
C. They make jobs more meaningful for workers.
D. They cause an immediate employment change.
31. How does the author develop his idea in the last paragraph?
A. By quoting authoritative figures in the field.
B. By analyzing the cause and effect of inequality.
C. By explaining why people disagree with each other.
D. By presenting contrasting views and providing examples.
D
A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it's become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it's launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies,focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there's another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights?
Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AIsystems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B. Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly when AI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI's capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand-new challenge.
Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the harm to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (补偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans’, legal systems must adapt.
Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI —— + specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort (侵权行为) claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans.
32. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry?
A. To identify AI firms' challenges.
B. To check AI chatbots' functions.
C. To know AI firms' security measures.
D. To advocate for AI chatbots' rights.
33. What can be the reasonable treatment of AI systems?
A Upgrading human orders.
B. Avoiding heavy workload.
C. Allowing data collection.
D. Drafting privacy policies.
34. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights?
A. AI's participation in research.
B. AI's potential in the economy.
C. AI's need for legal protection.
D. AI's difficulty of advancement.
35. What's the author's attitude to AI rights?
A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Objective. D. Supportive.

67. 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。
It was the day before the Chinese New Year Eve, and 16-year-old Li Wei stood nervously in front of a traditional tea house in downtown Beijing. The street was decorated with red lanterns and couplets, breathing a strong festive atmosphere. He held a carefully wrapped gift — a delicate porcelain teapot that had been passed down from his grandmother — and kept repeating the simple English sentences in his head. Today, he was going to meet his online language partner, Tom, a boy from England who had been learning Chinese with him for six months. They had chatted for countless hours online but had never met in person.
The doorbell jingled softly as Li Wei pushed the wooden door open. The warm, fragrant air mixed with the smell of oolong tea greeted him immediately. Inside, most customers were chatting over cups of tea, and soft folk music was playing in the background. In the quiet corner sat a fair-haired boy about his age, holding a small gift box, looking equally anxious and curious. Li Wei took a deep breath and walked over. “Tom?” he asked in low English. The boy’s blue eyes lit up at once. “Yes! And you must be Li Wei!” he replied in slow, earnest Chinese, with a cute accent.
They both laughed immediately, and the awkward tension melted away quickly. They began to chat freely, mixing broken English with basic Chinese. Li Wei presented the teapot to Tom excitedly, explaining its long history and the cultural meaning of drinking tea in China. Tom, in return, handed him a small box of homemade English biscuits, sharing the tradition of afternoon tea in Britain. For an hour, they exchanged practical language tips and interesting childhood stories, often pointing at objects around the tea house to learn new words. It felt like they had already been close friends for years, across the distance of the world.
As they were about to say goodbye and enjoy the New Year holiday with their families, Tom suddenly pulled out his smartphone carefully. “One photo, for memory?” he suggested with a bright smile. Li Wei nodded happily and moved a little closer. But just as Tom held up the phone to take the photo, his elbow accidentally hit the porcelain teapot on the wooden table.
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。
Paragraph 1:
Before Li Wei could reach out to catch it, the teapot fell onto the floor with a sharp crash.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
For a moment, neither of them spoke, only silence hanging in the air.

M: What did you do on the project?
W: Our job was to record things in notebooks about the behavior of wild parrots. But it was actually hard to put into words how a parrot behaves. My parents often couldn’t see them because parrots hid so well among the trees, but I could see better.
M: What did you enjoy most about being there?
W: I helped put up some new buildings, which was fun. I was also asked to create a video for the project’s website showing what life as a volunteer is like, so I guess I enjoyed that more than anything else.
M: Do you have any plans for working as a volunteer again?
W: Sure. My best friend’s just started a project. They need more volunteers. I can play the guitar, so I’ll offer to give performances to raise money for different charities.

Back in 2003, Erica Hernandez was just a kid helping 20 adults take care of the beach. They overheard a plan to build a processing station for natural gas 14 miles off the coast of Oxnard. The plant would send over 200 tons of air pollution per year to Erica’s community. Not only that, the station would take in millions of gallons of seawater per day to cool its generators, and discharge the water more than 15 degrees centigrade hotter than the surrounding ocean. This hot wastewater would cause serious harm to the surrounding ecosystem, killing tiny creatures and small fish critical to the survival of marine mammals and fisheries.
Erica cared too much to stay silent. She joined her friends in weekly protests at the office of the natural gas company. Prospects of stopping the project did not look good. The governor was in favor of it, and so were the powerful state commissions that would have to approve it. “The word on the street was that there was nothing we could do.”
Behind the scenes, however, opposition was growing, so Erica became the spokesperson for the youth of the town. She regularly walked her neighborhood along the route of the proposed pipeline, using a hula hoop to show people the size of the pipe that would pass by their houses. She talked to the media, and stories about the dangers of the proposed facility began appearing in the press. “We made thousands of phone calls and sent thousands of postcards telling the governor why this facility was a bad idea.” In July 2007, the governor made an unexpected move: He turned down the project. Erica and her friends won!
As only the second person in her family to go to college, Erica wants to become an environmental lawyer so she can fight for the environment and for the rights of communities. She wants other young people to speak out when they see something wrong, even if they feel shy about it at first. She likes to quote the words of her role model, César Chávez: “We are the future. The future is ours.”
24. What can be learned about the to-be-built processing station?
A. It is climate-damaging. B. It is ecologically-unfriendly.
C. It provides energy to the locals. D. It uses seawater-driven generators.
25. Why does the author mention the governor?
A. To express Erica’s desperate mood. B. To show the great barriers Erica faced.
C. To stress the support from the government. D. To blame the protest on the official’s inaction.
26. Which of the following can best describe Erica?
A. Creative and industrious. B. Pioneering and curious.
C. Determined and responsible. D. Adventurous and talkative.
27. What message is mainly conveyed through Erica’s story?
A. Courage is always rewarded in the end.
B. Success depends on teamwork and cooperation.
C. Young people can bring about change by speaking up.
D. Environmental protection should come before economic development.
【答案】24. B 25. B 26. C 27. C

C
People have become used to living with AI fairly quickly, which has changed the way many of us communicate or deal with information. It has also led to serious concerns about jobs. Surely mass unemployment is coming soon?
But economic data tell a different story: EU unemployment is at a historical low of around 6%, half the level of ten years ago; the UK’s is even lower at 5.1%, roughly the level of the fast-growing early 2000s; that of the US is lower still at 4.4%. Jobs remain plentiful because technology creates new types of jobs.
But yes, AI will take away some jobs. A third of Americans worry they will lose theirs to AI, and many of them will be right. Since the industrial revolution, a wave of innovations has fueled extraordinary exponential economic growth. However, AI, like the computer, the internet, or the railways, is a slow revolution. And just as there has been no immediate AI boom when it comes to economic growth, there is no immediate change in employment. What we see instead are largely firms using AI as an excuse for standard job-cutting exercises. This then leads to a different question about how AI will affect the meaning of our jobs.
Another question raised by AI is whether it will reduce or increase the inequality between workers. At first, many thought that allowing everyone to use an AI assistant with skills in processing information or clear communication would decrease earning inequality. But other recent research found the opposite, with highly skilled businessmen gaining the most from using AI support. One reason for this is that taking advice is a skill in itself. In my own research with colleagues, we found that giving chess players top-quality advice does little to close the gap between the best and the worst because lower-ability players were less likely to follow high-quality advice. And perhaps that’s the biggest risk AI brings: that some people may benefit from it much more than others.
28. What do the economic data show?
A. Mass unemployment is coming soon.
B. EU unemployment is higher than America’s.
C. Technology has cut job opportunities sharply.
D. The UK’s unemployment matches the 1990s level.
29. What does the underlined word “exponential” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Rapid. B. Steady. C. Irregular. D. Unbalanced.
30. What can we infer about companies’ job cuts?
A. They result from AI’s direct influence.
B. They are often done under the excuse of AI.
C. They make jobs more meaningful for workers.
D. They cause an immediate employment change.
31. How does the author develop his idea in the last paragraph?
A. By quoting authoritative figures in the field.
B. By analyzing the cause and effect of inequality.
C. By explaining why people disagree with each other.
D. By presenting contrasting views and providing examples.
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. B 31. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要探讨人工智能对就业的影响及带来的不平等问题,反驳了大规模失业的担忧。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But economic data tell a different story: EU unemployment is at a historical low of around 6%, half the level of ten years ago; the UK’s is even lower at 5.1%, roughly the level of the fast-growing early 2000s; that of the US is lower still at 4.4%.(但经济数据却讲述了一个不同的故事:欧盟失业率处于约6%的历史低点,是十年前水平的一半;英国的失业率更低,为5.1%,大致相当于21世纪初快速增长时期的水平;美国的失业率则更低,为4.4%)”可知,欧盟失业率(6%)高于美国失业率(4.4%)。故选B项。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中的“Since the industrial revolution, a wave of innovations has fueled extraordinary exponential economic growth.(自工业革命以来,一波创新浪潮推动了非凡的exponential 指数级经济增长)”可知,创新浪潮会推动经济快速发展,由此猜测,exponential意为“快速的”,与rapid同义。故选A项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“What we see instead are largely firms using AI as an excuse for standard job-cutting exercises.(相反,我们看到的主要是企业以人工智能为借口进行标准的裁员活动)”可知,企业的裁员往往是以人工智能为借口进行的。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“At first, many thought that allowing everyone to use an AI assistant with skills in processing information or clear communication would decrease earning inequality. But other recent research found the opposite, with highly skilled businessmen gaining the most from using AI support.(起初,许多人认为,让每个人都使用具备信息处理或清晰沟通技能的人工智能助手会减少收入不平等。但最近的其他研究却发现了相反的情况,高技能商人从使用人工智能支持中获益最多。)”以及后文“In my own research with colleagues, we found that giving chess players top-quality advice does little to close the gap between the best and the worst because lower-ability players were less likely to follow high-quality advice. (在我自己与同事的研究中,我们发现给棋手提供高质量的建议并不能缩小最优秀和最差棋手之间的差距,因为能力较低的棋手不太可能遵循高质量的建议)”可知,作者通过呈现相反的观点并举例来展开段落。故选D项。
D
A major policy challenge with AI is just how skillful it's become at role-playing as humans. Users now regularly turn to AI chatbots for life advice, mental health support, and even guidance on relationship issues. Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission (FTC) recently announced that it's launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies,focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. Yet there's another way to see AI as a policy issue: Could AI one day be worthy of legal rights?
Some leading tech firms are taking this question seriously. Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first “AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AIsystems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety. Former Southern District of New York judge Katherine B. Forrest, who specializes in AI policy, notes that there may never be widespread agreement on exactly when AI qualifies for moral standing, but as public belief in AI's capacity grows, courts will eventually have to face this brand-new challenge.
Extending rights to AI also forces a fundamental rethink of what should count as the harm to AI. “If it has balanced emotions like humans, then suffering would certainly be counted,” said Forrest. Traditional law, for instance, focuses on compensating (补偿) humans for financial losses, physical injuries, or emotional pains. But if future AI has needs and desires entirely different from humans’, legal systems must adapt.
Some scholars, like law professor Peter Salib from the University of Houston, argue for giving rights to advanced AI —— + specifically artificial general intelligence. Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort (侵权行为) claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans.
32. Why does the FTC launch the inquiry?
A. To identify AI firms' challenges.
B. To check AI chatbots' functions.
C. To know AI firms' security measures.
D. To advocate for AI chatbots' rights.
33. What can be the reasonable treatment of AI systems?
A. Upgrading human orders.
B. Avoiding heavy workload.
C. Allowing data collection.
D. Drafting privacy policies.
34. What encourages Peter Salib to advocate giving AI rights?
A. AI's participation in research.
B. AI's potential in the economy.
C. AI's need for legal protection.
D. AI's difficulty of advancement.
35. What's the author's attitude to AI rights?
A. Doubtful. B. Critical. C. Objective. D. Supportive.
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,主要探讨了人工智能(AI)带来的政策挑战。一方面,美国联邦贸易委员会(FTC)对七家主要公司展开调查,关注其AI聊天机器人的安全防范措施;另一方面,文章讨论了AI是否应获得合法权利这一议题,一些科技公司和学者对此持有不同观点,作者客观地呈现了这些讨论。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Safety advocates in the US Federal Trade Commission(FTC) recently announced that it's launching a formal inquiry into seven major companies, focusing on whether their AI chatbots have enough safety preparations to prevent risks like misinformation or improper emotional control. (美国联邦贸易委员会(FTC)安全倡导者最近宣布,他们正在对七家主要公司展开正式调查,重点关注他们的AI聊天机器人是否有足够的安全防范措施,以防止诸如错误信息或不当情感控制等风险。)”可知,FTC发起调查是为了了解AI公司的安全措施,故选C项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Last year, AI company Anthropic hired its first“AI welfare” researcher, tasked with studying whether advanced AIsystems might deserve reasonable treatment, which includes preventing unnecessary “stress” from overwork so that they can function well, or reducing harmful data inputs for overall safety. (去年,人工智能公司安特罗匹克(Anthropic)聘请了首位“人工智能福利”研究员,其职责是研究先进的人工智能系统是否值得被合理对待 —— 包括避免因过度工作而产生不必要的 “压力”以保证系统正常运行,或是为了整体安全而减少有害数据的输入。)”可知,避免繁重的工作量是对AI系统合理对待的一种方式,故选B项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Salib has written in his work of scholarship that giving AI rights to contracts, property and tort(侵权行为)claims would allow it to participate in the economic system and could even benefit humans. (萨利布在他的学术著作中写道,赋予AI在合同、财产和侵权索赔方面的权利将使其能够参与经济系统,甚至可能使人类受益。)”可知,AI在经济方面的潜力促使彼得·萨利布倡导赋予AI权利,故选B项。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。短文主要探讨了人工智能(AI)带来的政策挑战。一方面,美国联邦贸易委员会(FTC)对七家主要公司展开调查,关注其AI聊天机器人的安全防范措施;另一方面,文章讨论了AI是否应获得合法权利这一议题,一些科技公司和学者对此持有不同观点。所以作者对AI权利的态度是客观的。故选C项。

Confidence is a quality that can be highly beneficial in life. You may believe that confidence is something people are born with, and you either have it or you don’t. ___36___ Self-confidence is something you can develop.
According to Psychology Today, confidence can be nurtured (培养), and it is possible to build it and let it grow at any given time in your life. It is true that some people have an easier time with this than others, but don’t let that discourage you. ___37___
So where do you start? You start, according to a blog on Psych Central, with self-acceptance. Being honest with yourself and practicing self-love and self-acceptance is what it is all about. There is nothing to achieve from pretending and there are no easy paths to success. ___38___
The good news is that it’s up to you. Sit with yourself, meditate and journal (冥想和记日记). Think about your strengths and weaknesses, who you are and who you aren’t. Get to know yourself better. And be kind to yourself, like you would be kind to others. ___39___ You may even start to notice a change in how you connect with others. Because someone who is at peace with themselves and has confidence, according to Inc Magazine, is able to have compassion (同情) towards others.
Sometimes when working towards a goal, getting some additional help can play an important role. ___40___ People that know you well and are there for you can be helpful when you need a reminder of who you are and how unique, special and loved you are.
Remember that building confidence is a journey. There isn’t necessarily a destination or an end goal. Accept yourself and be proud of who you are.
A. This needs lots of practices.
B. That’s not necessarily true.
C. You should let go of perfection.
D. These practices can be beneficial.
E. You can benefit from talking to others.
F. It’s a muscle that can be strengthened and worked on.
G. It’s about where you came from and how far you’ve come.
【答案】36. B 37. F 38. A 39. D 40. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了培养自信的方法。
【36题详解】
空格前的句子“You may believe that confidence is something people are born with, and you either have it or you don’t. (你可能认为自信是与生俱来的,你要么有,要么没有。)”提到,你可能认为自信是与生俱来的,空格后的句子“Self-confidence is something you can develop.(自信是可以培养的。)”说自信是可以培养的,所以空格处的句子应该否定上一句的观点,所以B项“That’s not necessarily true.(这并不一定正确。)”符合语境。故选B项。
【37题详解】
空格前的句子“It is true that some people have an easier time with this than others, but don’t let that discourage you.(的确,有些人比其他人更容易做到这一点,但不要因此而气馁。)”是说,不要认为比其他人困难而气馁,空格处的句子应该解释原因,所以F项“It’s a muscle that can be strengthened and worked on.(这是一块可以加强和锻炼的肌肉)”符合语境。故选F项。
【38题详解】
根据空格处的句子“There is nothing to achieve from pretending and there are no easy paths to success.(假装什么也得不到,通往成功的道路也没有捷径。)”可知,通往成功的道路也没有捷径,所以需要练习,所以A项“This needs lots of practices.(这需要大量的练习。)”符合语境。故选A项。
【39题详解】
空格前的句子“Sit with yourself, meditate and journal. Think about your strengths and weaknesses, who you are and who you aren’t. Get to know yourself better. And be kind to yourself, like you would be kind to others.(自己坐下来,冥想,写日记。想想你的优点和缺点,你是谁,你不是谁。更好地了解自己。善待自己,就像善待别人一样。)”是培养自信的方法,空格后的句子“You may even start to notice a change in how you connect with others.(你甚至可能开始注意到你与他人交往的方式发生了变化。)”提到这样做的好处,空格处的句子也应该是提到这样练习的好处,所以D项“These practices can be beneficial.(这些做法是有益的。)”符合语境。故选D项。
【40题详解】
根据空格前的句子“Sometimes when working towards a goal, getting some additional help can play an important role.(有时候,在朝着一个目标努力的过程中,获得一些额外的帮助会起到重要的作用。)”和空格后的句子“People that know you well and are there for you can be helpful when you need a reminder of who you are and how unique, special and loved you are.(当你需要提醒自己你是谁,你是多么的独特、特别和被爱的时候,了解你的人会帮助你。)”可知,空格处的句子应该说“和其他人交流,得到他人的帮助”,所以,E项“You can benefit from talking to others.(你可以从与他人交谈中获益。)”填入空格处,符合语境。故选E项。

【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了瑞幸凭平价与创新快速崛起,借云南豆与数字模式出海,让全球消费者在杯中共享中西文化。
【56题详解】
考查冠词。句意:当纽约人品尝果香拿铁时,很少有人意识到这杯咖啡跨越太平洋的旅程讲述着一段文化交流的丰富故事。Pacific是专有名词,意思是“太平洋”,专有名词前需要加冠词the。故填the。
【57题详解】
考查现在完成时。句意:多年来,星巴克凭借在中国逾1.7万家门店,已成为咖啡市场广泛影响力的象征。stand在句中充当谓语,for years提示用现在完成时,主语Starbucks为单数,故填has stood。
【58题详解】
考查形容词。句意:对瑞幸来说,进入如此竞争激烈的空间需要勇气和真正的创新。空后有名词space,修饰名词应该用形容词,故填competitive。
【59题详解】
考查过去分词作状语。句意:创立于2017年的瑞幸是中国增长最快的咖啡零售商,全国门店超过2.4万家。句中已经存在谓语动词is,found需要转化为非谓语,它和逻辑主语Luckin呈被动关系,应该使用过去分词作状语表示被动完成。句首单词首字母大写,故填Founded。
【60题详解】
考查名词。句意:通过聚焦咖啡的亲民价格与灵活的产品创新,瑞幸成功吸引越来越多年轻中国消费者。affordable是个形容词,横线前有冠词the,应该将affordable变成名词,故填affordability。

考查定语从句。句意:随着“100%云南单一产地”等系列的推出,瑞幸多款特饮选用云南典型小粒咖啡,其巧克力余香备受青睐。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是coffee,指物,关系词在从句中充当主语,故填which。
【62题详解】
考查with的复合结构。句意:如今,云南咖啡是中国出口海外的关键产品之一,每年在这片沃土上产出约14万吨咖啡豆。此处为with的复合结构“with sth. done”,在句中作状语,表示伴随情况。故填with。

考查定语从句。句意:不止于咖啡,瑞幸更以科技重塑零售,将传统咖啡生意转变为全线上、数据驱动的模式。这个句子是个非限定性定语从句,先行词是前面整个句子,在从句中作主语,故填which。
【64题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:顾客只需几秒就能在手机上个性化下单并付款,无需依赖他人为他定制饮品。介词后作宾语,主语是he,结合句意,这里用反身代词himself表示“他自己”,故填himself。
【65题详解】
考查现在分词。句意:在这杯将云南咖啡豆与全球口味融合的瑞幸咖啡里,不同文化找到了共同的一抿。句子已经存在谓语find,故combine需要转化为非谓语,它和逻辑主语Luckin coffee呈主动关系,应该使用现在分词作定语。故填combining。

【答案】Dear Mike,
I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t pass the HKS Chinese exam, but I hope you won’t feel too discouraged. Many learners face setbacks like this — one exam doesn’t define your ability. What matters is keeping going!
From my own experience, immersing in daily Chinese practice works wonders. For example, listen to Chinese podcasts or watch dramas with subtitles; this helps with listening and picking up natural expressions. Also, keep a journal in Chinese — write about your day, hobbies, or feelings. It’s a fun way to improve vocabulary and writing skills.
Don’t give up! Every mistake is a step toward success. With consistent effort, you’ll master Chinese for sure.
Looking forward to your progress!
Yours,
Li An

67. 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。
It was the day before the Chinese New Year Eve, and 16-year-old Li Wei stood nervously in front of a traditional tea house in downtown Beijing. The street was decorated with red lanterns and couplets, breathing a strong festive atmosphere. He held a carefully wrapped gift — a delicate porcelain teapot that had been passed down from his grandmother — and kept repeating the simple English sentences in his head. Today, he was going to meet his online language partner, Tom, a boy from England who had been learning Chinese with him for six months. They had chatted for countless hours online but had never met in person.
The doorbell jingled softly as Li Wei pushed the wooden door open. The warm, fragrant air mixed with the smell of oolong tea greeted him immediately. Inside, most customers were chatting over cups of tea, and soft folk music was playing in the background. In the quiet corner sat a fair-haired boy about his age, holding a small gift box, looking equally anxious and curious. Li Wei took a deep breath and walked over. “Tom?” he asked in low English. The boy’s blue eyes lit up at once. “Yes! And you must be Li Wei!” he replied in slow, earnest Chinese, with a cute accent.
They both laughed immediately, and the awkward tension melted away quickly. They began to chat freely, mixing broken English with basic Chinese. Li Wei presented the teapot to Tom excitedly, explaining its long history and the cultural meaning of drinking tea in China. Tom, in return, handed him a small box of homemade English biscuits, sharing the tradition of afternoon tea in Britain. For an hour, they exchanged practical language tips and interesting childhood stories, often pointing at objects around the tea house to learn new words. It felt like they had already been close friends for years, across the distance of the world.
As they were about to say goodbye and enjoy the New Year holiday with their families, Tom suddenly pulled out his smartphone carefully. “One photo, for memory?” he suggested with a bright smile. Li Wei nodded happily and moved a little closer. But just as Tom held up the phone to take the photo, his elbow accidentally hit the porcelain teapot on the wooden table.
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。
Paragraph 1:
Before Li Wei could reach out to catch it, the teapot fell onto the floor with a sharp crash.

Paragraph 2:
For a moment, neither of them spoke, only silence hanging in the air.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Before Li Wei could reach out to catch it, the teapot fell onto the floor with a sharp crash. Pieces of the delicate porcelain scattered across the wooden floor, gleaming under the warm light of the tea house. Li Wei’s heart sank instantly. His mind flashed to his grandmother’s gentle hands carefully polishing the teapot, and the stories she had told him about its history. Tom’s face turned pale, his eyes wide with horror. “Oh no! I’m so, so sorry!” he stammered in English, his voice trembling. He immediately knelt down, as if hoping to magically gather the fragments. Li Wei stood frozen for a second, a wave of shock and sorrow washing over him. Yet, seeing Tom’s genuine panic and regret, he took a deep breath and knelt beside him.
For a moment, neither of them spoke, only silence hanging in the air. Then, Li Wei gently picked up a large piece of the teapot’s handle and said softly, “It’s okay, Tom. Accidents happen.” He looked up and managed a small smile. “This teapot was important because it carried my family’s stories. But maybe now,” he continued, his voice growing warmer, “it will carry our story too.” Tom’s eyes softened with relief and gratitude. “In my culture,” Tom said slowly, “we believe that broken things can be repaired, and sometimes they become even more special.” He carefully collected the pieces into his gift box. “Let me help you put it back together, not just the teapot, but as a memory of our meeting.” As they stood up, the initial sadness was replaced by a quiet understanding. They knew that some bonds, like the repaired cracks in porcelain, could hold stories far beyond their original design.
