Passage 2
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。
Patriotism (爱国主义) can be shown not only in the years of war but also in the years of peace. In today's era, our country still needs patriotism 1 (realize) the Chinese Dream. The well-known figures of patriotism we are familiar with 2 (be) the late scientists Huang Danian and Deng Jiaxian. Patriotism had been rooted deeply in their bones, for they fulfilled their dreams of rejuvenating (复兴) the Chinese nation with exceptional achievements.
The 3 (strategy) geophysicist Huang Danian, with his particular expertise in deep earth exploration technology, has helped China take 4 lead in a number of technical fields, whether under the earth's crust (地壳) 5 in the high sky.
The nuclear physicist Deng Jiaxian, one of the founding fathers of the "Two Bombs and One Satellite" project, made 6 (pioneer) contributions to China's cause of national defense. Up to now, their patriotic deeds and deep affection for the motherland 7 (make) them role models, especially for the young.
Both Huang and Deng are heroes of our time, 8 tremendous contributions originate from their hard work and patriotic feelings. With the passion 9 (pass) down to us, we should resolutely follow the path paved by them and draw inspiration 10 their noble spirit, shouldering the mission of realizing national rejuvenation.
Passage 3
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。
When humanoid robots did a perfect 720-degree backflip at the Spring Festival Gala, people naturally saw it 1 an amazing show. The flip was done with great skill and landed smoothly, and applause (喝彩) quickly 2 (follow). But this performance meant much more than just the fun of acrobatics (杂技). It showed a bigger change: China is moving from being the world’s workshop to 3 (become) a key creator of next-generation robot technology.
Western media called the event a “robotic revolution”. The clearest sign of this change is in technology. In 2025, humanoid robots on public stages moved 4 (awkward), doing simple folk dances in a careful, machine-like way. By 2026, newer robots could perform smooth martial arts moves-exact spins, steady landings, and quick recovery from losing balance.
The backflip was a performance, but 5 (it) true meaning points to everyday life. With more old people, 6 (few) workers, and the need to deal with disasters, there are strong reasons 7 (use) humanoid robots. Robots that can fit into human 8 (place) like stairs, messy rooms, or uneven floors can do more than what controlled settings allow 9 can help where current automated systems fall short.
The 720-degree backflip was not the final goal. It was a sign — proof that China’s robotics field has reached a point 10 power, intelligence, and the ability to build have all come together.
二、阅读理解
Passage 1
Changing animal poo (粪便) into future babies might sound like magic, but scientists think it could become a new way to help endangered animals. A project in the UK called the “Poo Zoo” is testing whether cells (细胞) in animal waste can be used as tools for preservation.
Animal poo is not only full of bacteria (细菌) but also has tiny (微小的) cells from inside the animal’s body. If the poo is fresh enough, some of these cells are still alive. Researchers have already found living cells in droppings from mice and other animals.
These living cells could be used for wildlife rescue. Scientists can take DNA from the cells to study the variety of wild populations and choose which animals can have babies together as parents. In the future, the same cells might even be used to produce baby animals in the lab. One possible method is cloning (克隆), in which the key part of a living cell is put into an empty egg cell and then grows inside another female.
A more creative idea is to reprogram (从新编程) these living cells into many types of cells, including sex cells. In mice, scientists have already shown that such cells can be turned into sex cells. If this works for endangered animals, scientists could use lab-made sex cells to help them have babies without catching them or taking sex cells directly from their bodies.
The “Poo Zoo” method also has practical advantages. Getting living cells from the blood, skin or hair of endangered animals can be dangerous and expensive, but collecting poo is safe and does not hurt the animals.30 These cells can be kept in bio-banks for years. A wildlife protection organization has successfully cloned an extinct species using preserved cells. However, many experts warn that the “Poo Zoo” method alone cannot save wildlife. They point out that protecting habitats and fighting illegal hunting are still the most important tasks. New tools like those used in the “Poo Zoo” should support rather than replace traditional preservation work.
1.Why can animal waste be used for animal protection?
A.Because it has living cells. B.Because it is fresh enough.
C.Because it has magic power. D.Because it is rich in bacteria.
2.Why does the author mention mice in paragraph 4?
A.To compare different species. B.To make a sound (合理的)suggestion.
C.To show an unexpected result. D.To give a successful example.
3.Which of the following words can best describe the “Poo Zoo” way?
A.Cheap and productive. B.Creative and expensive.
C.Harmless and effective. D.Practical and traditional.
4.What is the experts’ attitude to the “Poo Zoo” method?
A.Hopeful. B.Objective. C.Unclear. D.Worried.
Passage 2
The effects of high altitude (海拔) on the human body could protect against obesity (肥胖), according to a study of more than 4 million children across Colombia. The findings support the theory that low oxygen levels drive increased energy consumption, though prior evidence comes mainly from adults.
To understand the potential impact on children, Lizcano Losada at the University of La Sabana analysed data on 4.16 million children aged up to 5 years old from 1123 cities. The children were separated into four groups relating to the height above sea level at which they lived: up to 1000 metres, 1001 to 2000 metres, 2001 to 3000 metres or above 3000 metres.
In the two lower-altitude regions, around 80 out of every 10,000 children had obesity. However, at altitudes of 2001 to 3000 metres, the prevalence (发生率) of obesity fell to 40 in 10,000. At altitudes above 3000 metres, the prevalence was higher again: 86 out of 10,000. However, the team says this may be a statistical accident, as this data set included fewer cities and children than the other three altitude ranges.
“That’s a fair comment,” says David Stensel at Loughborough University. But he also emphasises the study is observational, so it doesn’t prove high altitude prevents obesity. “They’ve tried to make sure they’ve adjusted for the other potential influencing factors,” he says. These include measures of poverty and low income. But “you can’t account for everything”, says Stensel. Assuming high altitude really does make obesity less likely, Stensel says it isn’t clear how this knowledge could be of practical use in reducing the condition.
However, Losada argues the findings support the creation of geographically tailored public health strategies. He suggests further studies are needed to better understand the biological pathways linking altitude to childhood obesity, which could lead to more precise health advice for different regions.
1.What was the analysis in Losada’s study mainly based on?
A.Grouped data. B.Sample size. C.Children’s age. D.City type.
2.What is the team’s view on the unexpected result of the study?
A.It’s a definite trend. B.It’s a chance occurrence.
C.It’s a misleading signal. D.It’s a measurement error.
3.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning Stensel in paragraph 4?
A.The importance of health knowledge. B.The necessity of actionable strategies.
C.The limitation of the research method. D.The complexity of the influencing factors.
4.What is Losada’s attitude towards the study?
A.Dismissive. B.Objective. C.Mixed. D.Indifferent.
Passage 3
Every living thing has a metabolic (代谢) ceiling, which is equal to 2.5 times their basic metabolic rate (BMR) in daily energy use, but exactly what that number is, and what limits it, is the question. To find out, researchers from the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts raised a question: If they get a group of really competitive ultra-athletes (超级运动员), can they break this proposed metabolic ceiling?
To explore that question, the research team monitored 14 ultra-runners, cyclists, and triathletes during both races and training blocks. In multi-day endurance (耐力) events, several athletes temporarily reached energy burn levels six to seven times their BMR, which translated to roughly 7,000 to 8,000 calories per day. However, when the researchers averaged the athletes’ caloric output across much longer periods of time (30 and 52 weeks), their energy use consistently fell back near the expected ceiling of about 2.4 times their BMR. According to the researchers, this pattern demonstrates that even the most highly trained athletes eventually hit a metabolic limit, and sustaining anything above that boundary is extremely difficult.
“If you go over the ceiling for short periods, that’s fine. You can make up for it later,” says lead author, Andrew Best of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. “But long term, it’s unsustainable because your body will start to break down its tissue, and you’ll lose weight.”
The study also highlighted how the human body balances competing energy demands during extreme endurance efforts. As athletes directed more energy towards running, swimming, and cycling, they naturally reduced energy use in other areas without realizing it.
“For most of us, we’re never going to reach this metabolic ceiling,” says Best. “It takes running about 11 miles on average a day for a year to achieve 2.5 times BMR. Most people, including me, would get injured before any sort of energetic limit comes into play.”
1.What can we infer about metabolism?
A.It slows down with training. B.It varies daily.
C.It has a fixed limit. D.It ignores calorie burn.
2.What is the consequence of staying above the metabolic ceiling long-term?
A.Temporarily physical discomfort.
B.Gradual breakdown of body tissue.
C.Permanent energy capacity expansion.
D.Immediate performance enhancement.
3.How does the human body balance energy demands?
A.By stopping extreme efforts. B.By raising metabolic ceiling.
C.By reducing daily exercise. D.By cutting other energy use.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.A Hidden Limit Inside Human Endurance
B.The Way Ordinary People Maintain Health
C.A New Question That Concerns Researchers
D.The Metabolic ceiling Most Athletes Break
Passage 4
TCM Olfaction Diagnosis Meets Modern Sensing Technology
TCM Olfaction Diagnosis
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with a history of thousands of years, uses four main methods for diagnosis. Among them, olfaction diagnosis, diagnosis by smell, known as “Wen Zhen”, plays a vital role. It involves assessing a patient’s health by noticing smells from their breath or body. However, this method has long depended heavily on the doctor’s personal experience, which can lead to inconsistent results and makes it difficult to measure precisely.
Modern Tech’s Transformation
Modern technology is now transforming this long-standing challenge. Scientists have found that human breath contains a variety of minute chemical substances known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. This profile can reflect the body’s health conditions, which corresponds with the core principles of TCM olfaction diagnosis. By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization.
Future prospects
With the help of VOC detection methods and artificial intelligence (AI), TCM smell diagnosis is becoming more scientific. AI can analyze complex VOC data to recognize TCM patterns and even point out possible problems in certain body systems with much greater consistency. Although challenges remain, such as setting standards for breath sample collection and clearly defining TCM patterns, integrating ancient TCM wisdom with modern science keeps the value of traditional TCM while giving it a new scientific foundation. This combination is expected to make TCM diagnosis more standard and open up new opportunities for healthcare development around the world.
1.Why is VOCs analysis adopted in TCM Olfaction Diagnosis?
A.To focus on serious diseases. B.To make diagnosis more objective.
C.To apply artificial intelligence. D.To replace traditional methods.
2.In which step is the “breathprint” formed?
A.Sample Collection. B.VOCs Detection.
C.Data Processing. D.Results Analysis.
3.Where is the text probably taken from?
A.A TCM guidebook. B.A medical exam paper.
C.A patient care brochure. D.A medical technology journal.
Passage 5
Does your cat or dog suddenly get a burst of energy and perform athletic features around the house? Welcome to the world of zoomies — tense periods of high-energy activity including running, jumping and rolling.
You might see post-bath zoomies, midnight zoomies and out-of-nowhere zoomies. We don’t yet know if zoomies are more likely to occur at certain times of the day, or more in some than others. 1 If the zoomies are occurring as part of your animal’s daily routine, this implies your animal is enjoying themselves. Actually, zoomies have a lot in common with play. 2
Zoomies are mentioned a lot, but there is little scientific research why they occur. Yet some conclusions can be drawn from experience. 3 In dogs, this is commonly a play bow-where the dog appears to “bow” to another to signal it is eager to play. In cats, an invitation may include repeatedly rolling over. If this is the case, your animal is likely experiencing excitement and a desire to interact with you.
4 You should consult with your vet (兽医) if your dog or cat is displaying the behavior (in particular, circling) for too long. It might be a sign of a repetitive behavior disorder. If you struggle to distract or stop the behavior, or if it is resulting in injuries, seek professional assistance.
Even if you don’t get the call of the zoomies yourself, take a moment to enjoy and even join your dog or cat in having fun. 5
A.Sometimes we all need to run wild.
B.You can easily tell they bring a whole load of fun.
C.It is our duty to figure out what they want exactly.
D.Nothing is more annoying than a midnight zoomie.
E.However, we do consider them evidence of a pretty good mood.
F.For example, zoomies can be seen as an invitation for others to join.
G.Sometimes, however, zoomies may be a sign of a medical condition.

In the summer of 1960, a 26-year-old woman set foot on the land of Tanzania. Armed with nothing but a notebook and curiosity, Jane Goodall set out on a journey that would 1 our understanding of human being’s closest living 2 —chimpanzees (黑猩猩).
Goodall had no university degree, no 3 training and was entering a male-dominated field. Different from 4 approaches, she gave the chimpanzees 5 instead of numbers, such as Fifi, Lola. By recognizing chimpanzees as 6 with distinct personalities, Goodall introduced a ground-breaking perspective—one that 7 the idea of treating animals as mere research data and instead focused on their distinct behaviors—that would 8 our take on animal awareness and behavior.
On November 4,1960, Goodall 9 a chimpanzee she named David carefully select a grass stem (茎), remove the leaves, and stick it into the ants nest to 10 ants. David was making and using a tool, a skill considered a 11 human ability. Goodall’s discovery was the first to bridge what was once considered a 12 between humans and other animals, forever changing our place in the natural world.
In 1986, Goodall attended a meeting in Chicago, which opened her eyes to the striking 13 of chimpanzee populations due to human activities. She came to the meeting “as a scientist but left as a conservation 14 .” She appealed to the world to protect these beautiful creatures.

五、书面表达
1.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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Among villagers lived Mark, an odd, thin, short man. Because Mark preferred his ideas for inventions to hard work in a field, he was often laughed at by the villagers. Fortunately, he didn’t have to work in the field, as his grandfather hired him to work at his blacksmith’s workshop.
In his spare moments, Mark would devote himself to his inventions. A year ago, his grandfather made a kettle. Once he was waiting for the water to start boiling in the kettle, he saw the steam come out of the kettle and thought, “The steam comes out at pretty high speed. Could a huge kettle produce enough steam to drive a windmill?”
It took him four months to create something like a steam engine. Mark continued thinking, “I’ll add wings, and it will be able to fly.” Mark built a wooden construction of an air vehicle and he powered the wings with the steam engine. Wings were waving just as birds do; however, the air vehicle didn’t go up even a little. The trial of starting the air vehicle lasted an hour and completely failed. “Hah! I told you that you wouldn’t make it!” his grandfather said, and many villagers laughed at him. But Mark didn’t mind that; he gathered all the courage and was determined to make a change.
He went to the big bookstore in a faraway city and bought books on aircraft construction. He even bought back some parts and used metal sheets from the junkyards. Mark started studying the pictures more exactly. He built a fuselage (机身) with wheels, and he mounted a big airscrew (螺旋桨) on it. He worked hard to gather all the parts needed for the plane according to the drawings. It took Mark another six months to complete his plane. Despite the doubtfulness of his grandfather and other villagers, Mark transported the plane to a cliff atop the mountain with the help of friends. He believed pretty strong winds would significantly help his plane fly and he also believed he could make it this time.
Paragraph 1:
After getting everything ready, Mark got into his plane with a mixture of excitement and nervousness.

二、阅读理解
Passage 1
Changing animal poo (粪便) into future babies might sound like magic, but scientists think it could become a new way to help endangered animals. A project in the UK called the “Poo Zoo” is testing whether cells (细胞) in animal waste can be used as tools for preservation.
Animal poo is not only full of bacteria (细菌) but also has tiny (微小的) cells from inside the animal’s body. If the poo is fresh enough, some of these cells are still alive. Researchers have already found living cells in droppings from mice and other animals.
These living cells could be used for wildlife rescue. Scientists can take DNA from the cells to study the variety of wild populations and choose which animals can have babies together as parents. In the future, the same cells might even be used to produce baby animals in the lab. One possible method is cloning (克隆), in which the key part of a living cell is put into an empty egg cell and then grows inside another female.
A more creative idea is to reprogram (从新编程) these living cells into many types of cells, including sex cells. In mice, scientists have already shown that such cells can be turned into sex cells. If this works for endangered animals, scientists could use lab-made sex cells to help them have babies without catching them or taking sex cells directly from their bodies.
The “Poo Zoo” method also has practical advantages. Getting living cells from the blood, skin or hair of endangered animals can be dangerous and expensive, but collecting poo is safe and does not hurt the animals.30 These cells can be kept in bio-banks for years. A wildlife protection organization has successfully cloned an extinct species using preserved cells. However, many experts warn that the “Poo Zoo” method alone cannot save wildlife. They point out that protecting habitats and fighting illegal hunting are still the most important tasks. New tools like those used in the “Poo Zoo” should support rather than replace traditional preservation work.
1.Why can animal waste be used for animal protection?
A.Because it has living cells. B.Because it is fresh enough.
C.Because it has magic power. D.Because it is rich in bacteria.
2.Why does the author mention mice in paragraph 4?
A.To compare different species. B.To make a sound (合理的)suggestion.
C.To show an unexpected result. D.To give a successful example.
3.Which of the following words can best describe the “Poo Zoo” way?
A.Cheap and productive. B.Creative and expensive.
C.Harmless and effective. D.Practical and traditional.
4.What is the experts’ attitude to the “Poo Zoo” method?
A.Hopeful. B.Objective. C.Unclear. D.Worried.
【答案】1.A 2.D 3.C 4.B
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍英国Poo Zoo项目研究从动物粪便中提取活细胞,用于保护濒危物种,如克隆或培育生殖细胞,该方法安全无创,但专家认为不能替代传统栖息地保护。
1.细节理解题。根据第二段“Animal poo is not only full of bacteria (细菌) but also has tiny cells from inside the animal’s body. If the poo is fresh enough, some of these cells are still alive.(动物粪便不仅富含细菌,还含有动物体内的微小细胞。如果粪便足够新鲜,其中的一些细胞仍处于活性状态)”可知,动物粪便里可能含有仍然存活的细胞,因此能用于保护研究与遗传拯救。故选A项。
2.推理判断题。根据第四段“A more creative idea is to reprogram these living cells into many types of cells, including sex cells. In mice, scientists have already shown that such cells can be turned into sex cells.(一个更具创意的想法是将这些活细胞重新编程为多种类型的细胞,包括生殖细胞。在老鼠身上,科学家已经证明这种细胞可以转化为生殖细胞)”可知,作者提到老鼠应该是为了说明“细胞可被重编程并转化为性细胞”这一想法已有实验成功案例,从而增强观点可信度。故选D项。
3.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Getting living cells from the blood, skin or hair of rare animals can be dangerous and expensive, but collecting poo is safe and does not hurt the animals. These cells can be kept in bio-banks for years. A wildlife protection organization has successfully cloned an extinct species using preserved cells.(从稀有动物的血液、皮肤或毛发中获取活细胞可能既危险又昂贵,但收集粪便则既安全又不会伤害动物。这些细胞可以保存在生物库中长达数年。一家野生动物保护组织已经成功地利用保存的细胞克隆出了一个灭绝物种)”可知,从动物粪便提取细胞安全无害,并且可以成功,即无害且有效。故选C项。
4.推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, many experts warn that the “Poo Zoo” method alone cannot save wildlife. They point out that protecting habitats and fighting illegal hunting are still the most important tasks. New tools like those used in the “Poo Zoo” should support rather than replace traditional preservation work.(然而,许多专家警告说,“粪便动物园”方法本身并不能拯救野生动物。他们指出,保护栖息地和打击非法捕猎仍然是最重要的任务。像“粪便动物园”中使用的这些新工具应该支持而非取代传统的保护工作)”可知,专家们既肯定其有效性,又强调不能替代传统保护、仍需栖息地保护和反偷猎,态度是客观理性的。故选B项。
Passage 2
The effects of high altitude (海拔) on the human body could protect against obesity (肥胖), according to a study of more than 4 million children across Colombia. The findings support the theory that low oxygen levels drive increased energy consumption, though prior evidence comes mainly from adults.
To understand the potential impact on children, Lizcano Losada at the University of La Sabana analysed data on 4.16 million children aged up to 5 years old from 1123 cities. The children were separated into four groups relating to the height above sea level at which they lived: up to 1000 metres, 1001 to 2000 metres, 2001 to 3000 metres or above 3000 metres.
In the two lower-altitude regions, around 80 out of every 10,000 children had obesity. However, at altitudes of 2001 to 3000 metres, the prevalence (发生率) of obesity fell to 40 in 10,000. At altitudes above 3000 metres, the prevalence was higher again: 86 out of 10,000. However, the team says this may be a statistical accident, as this data set included fewer cities and children than the other three altitude ranges.
“That’s a fair comment,” says David Stensel at Loughborough University. But he also emphasises the study is observational, so it doesn’t prove high altitude prevents obesity. “They’ve tried to make sure they’ve adjusted for the other potential influencing factors,” he says. These include measures of poverty and low income. But “you can’t account for everything”, says Stensel. Assuming high altitude really does make obesity less likely, Stensel says it isn’t clear how this knowledge could be of practical use in reducing the condition.
However, Losada argues the findings support the creation of geographically tailored public health strategies. He suggests further studies are needed to better understand the biological pathways linking altitude to childhood obesity, which could lead to more precise health advice for different regions.
1.What was the analysis in Losada’s study mainly based on?
A.Grouped data. B.Sample size. C.Children’s age. D.City type.
2.What is the team’s view on the unexpected result of the study?
A.It’s a definite trend. B.It’s a chance occurrence.
C.It’s a misleading signal. D.It’s a measurement error.
3.What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning Stensel in paragraph 4?
A.The importance of health knowledge. B.The necessity of actionable strategies.
C.The limitation of the research method. D.The complexity of the influencing factors.
4.What is Losada’s attitude towards the study?
A.Dismissive. B.Objective. C.Mixed. D.Indifferent.
【答案】1.A 2.B 3.C 4.B
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项针对哥伦比亚全国400多万名儿童的研究表明,高海拔环境对人类身体的影响可能有助于预防肥胖症。
1.推理判断题。根据第二段“The children were separated into four groups relating to the height above sea level at which they lived: up to 1000 metres, 1001 to 2000 metres, 2001 to 3000 metres or above 3000 metres. (这些儿童被按其居住海拔高度分为四组:海拔在1000米及以下、1001至2000米、2001至3000米或3000 米以上)”可知,研究是基于按照海拔高度分组的数据,所以分析主要基于分组数据。故选A。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段“However, the team says this may be a statistical accident, as this data set included fewer cities and children than the other three altitude ranges. (不过研究团队表示,这可能只是统计上的偶然现象,因为这个数据集包含的城市和儿童数量少于其他三个海拔范围)”可知,研究团队认为在海拔3000米以上肥胖发生率较高这个意外结果可能是统计上的偶然事件。故选B。
3.推理判断题。根据第四段“‘That’s a fair comment,’says David Stensel at Loughborough University. But he also emphasises the study is observational, so it doesn’t prove high altitude prevents obesity. ‘They’ve tried to make sure they’ve adjusted for the other potential influencing factors,” he says. These include measures of poverty and low income. But ‘you can’t account for everything’, says Stensel. Assuming high altitude really does make obesity less likely, Stensel says it isn’t clear how this knowledge could be of practical use in reducing the condition. (‘这是个合理的说法。’拉夫堡大学的戴维·斯滕塞尔说道。但他也强调,这项研究属于观察性研究,因此并不能证明高海拔能够预防肥胖症。他说:‘他们已经尽力对其他可能的影响因素进行了调整。’这些因素包括贫困程度和低收入水平的衡量指标。但斯滕塞尔表示:‘你无法涵盖所有因素。’ 假设高海拔确实能降低肥胖症的发生几率,斯滕塞尔说,目前还不清楚这种知识如何能对减少这种病症起到实际作用)”可知,斯滕塞尔提到研究是观察性的,不能证明高海拔能预防肥胖,即便研究团队尽量调整了其他潜在影响因素,但不可能考虑到所有因素。由此推知,研究方法存在局限性。故选C。
4.推理判断题。根据第三段“However, the team says this may be a statistical accident, as this data set included fewer cities and children than the other three altitude ranges. (不过研究团队表示,这可能只是统计上的偶然现象,因为这个数据集包含的城市和儿童数量少于其他三个海拔范围)”和最后一段“However, Losada argues the findings support the creation of geographically tailored public health strategies. He suggests further studies are needed to better understand the biological pathways linking altitude to childhood obesity, which could lead to more precise health advice for different regions.(然而,洛萨达认为,这些研究结果支持制定针对不同地理区域的有针对性的公共卫生策略。他建议需要进行更多的研究,以更好地理解海拔与儿童肥胖症之间的生物学关联,这可能会为不同地区提供更精确的健康建议。)”可知,洛萨达既尊重数据的观察结果,又承认局限,且在结尾强调需要进一步研究,并理性展望。这种基于证据、严谨开放的态度。由此推知,他对研究的态度是客观的。故选B。
Passage 3
Every living thing has a metabolic (代谢) ceiling, which is equal to 2.5 times their basic metabolic rate (BMR) in daily energy use, but exactly what that number is, and what limits it, is the question. To find out, researchers from the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts raised a question: If they get a group of really competitive ultra-athletes (超级运动员), can they break this proposed metabolic ceiling?
To explore that question, the research team monitored 14 ultra-runners, cyclists, and triathletes during both races and training blocks. In multi-day endurance (耐力) events, several athletes temporarily reached energy burn levels six to seven times their BMR, which translated to roughly 7,000 to 8,000 calories per day. However, when the researchers averaged the athletes’ caloric output across much longer periods of time (30 and 52 weeks), their energy use consistently fell back near the expected ceiling of about 2.4 times their BMR. According to the researchers, this pattern demonstrates that even the most highly trained athletes eventually hit a metabolic limit, and sustaining anything above that boundary is extremely difficult.
“If you go over the ceiling for short periods, that’s fine. You can make up for it later,” says lead author, Andrew Best of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. “But long term, it’s unsustainable because your body will start to break down its tissue, and you’ll lose weight.”
The study also highlighted how the human body balances competing energy demands during extreme endurance efforts. As athletes directed more energy towards running, swimming, and cycling, they naturally reduced energy use in other areas without realizing it.
“For most of us, we’re never going to reach this metabolic ceiling,” says Best. “It takes running about 11 miles on average a day for a year to achieve 2.5 times BMR. Most people, including me, would get injured before any sort of energetic limit comes into play.”
1.What can we infer about metabolism?
A.It slows down with training. B.It varies daily.
C.It has a fixed limit. D.It ignores calorie burn.
2.What is the consequence of staying above the metabolic ceiling long-term?
A.Temporarily physical discomfort.
B.Gradual breakdown of body tissue.
C.Permanent energy capacity expansion.
D.Immediate performance enhancement.
3.How does the human body balance energy demands?
A.By stopping extreme efforts. B.By raising metabolic ceiling.
C.By reducing daily exercise. D.By cutting other energy use.
4.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.A Hidden Limit Inside Human Endurance
B.The Way Ordinary People Maintain Health
C.A New Question That Concerns Researchers
D.The Metabolic ceiling Most Athletes Break
【答案】1.C 2.B 3.D 4.A
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍研究发现人体新陈代谢存在固定上限,即使是顶级运动员也无法长期突破,并解释其原理与身体的平衡机制。
1.推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Every living thing has a metabolic (代谢) ceiling, which is equal to 2.5 times their basic metabolic rate (BMR) in daily energy use, but exactly what that number is, and what limits it, is the question.(每种生物都有一个代谢上限,相当于日常能量消耗中基础代谢率的2.5倍,但确切数值是多少、是什么限制了它,仍是问题。)”可知,新陈代谢存在固定的极限。故选C项。
2.细节理解题。根据第三段中的““If you go over the ceiling for short periods, that’s fine. You can make up for it later,” says lead author, Andrew Best of the Massachusetts College of Liberal Arts. “But long term, it’s unsustainable because your body will start to break down its tissue, and you’ll lose weight.”(马萨诸塞州文理学院的首席作者安德鲁·贝斯特说:“如果你短期内超过上限,那没关系。你之后可以弥补。但长期来看,这是不可持续的,因为你的身体会开始分解自身组织,体重也会下降。”)”可知,长期处于代谢上限之上会导致身体组织逐渐分解。故选B项。
3.细节理解题。根据第四段中的“The study also highlighted how the human body balances competing energy demands during extreme endurance efforts. As athletes directed more energy towards running, swimming, and cycling, they naturally reduced energy use in other areas without realizing it.(这项研究还强调了人体在极端耐力运动中如何平衡相互竞争的能量需求。当运动员将更多能量用于跑步、游泳和骑自行车时,他们会在不知不觉中自然减少其他方面的能量消耗。)”可知,人体通过减少其他方面的能量消耗来平衡能量需求。故选D项。
4.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段中的“Every living thing has a metabolic (代谢) ceiling, which is equal to 2.5 times their basic metabolic rate (BMR) in daily energy use, but exactly what that number is, and what limits it, is the question. (每种生物都有一个代谢上限,相当于日常能量消耗中基础代谢率的2.5倍,但确切数值是多少、是什么限制了它,仍是问题。)”以及第二段中的“According to the researchers, this pattern demonstrates that even the most highly trained athletes eventually hit a metabolic limit, and sustaining anything above that boundary is extremely difficult.(研究人员表示,这一模式表明即使训练最精良的运动员最终也会达到代谢极限,长期维持超过该界限的状态极其困难。)”可知,文章围绕人体隐藏的耐力极限——代谢上限展开,因此最适合的标题是“人类耐力内部隐藏的极限”。故选A项。
Passage 4
TCM Olfaction Diagnosis Meets Modern Sensing Technology
TCM Olfaction Diagnosis
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), with a history of thousands of years, uses four main methods for diagnosis. Among them, olfaction diagnosis, diagnosis by smell, known as “Wen Zhen”, plays a vital role. It involves assessing a patient’s health by noticing smells from their breath or body. However, this method has long depended heavily on the doctor’s personal experience, which can lead to inconsistent results and makes it difficult to measure precisely.
Modern Tech’s Transformation
Modern technology is now transforming this long-standing challenge. Scientists have found that human breath contains a variety of minute chemical substances known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs). These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. This profile can reflect the body’s health conditions, which corresponds with the core principles of TCM olfaction diagnosis. By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization.
Future prospects
With the help of VOC detection methods and artificial intelligence (AI), TCM smell diagnosis is becoming more scientific. AI can analyze complex VOC data to recognize TCM patterns and even point out possible problems in certain body systems with much greater consistency. Although challenges remain, such as setting standards for breath sample collection and clearly defining TCM patterns, integrating ancient TCM wisdom with modern science keeps the value of traditional TCM while giving it a new scientific foundation. This combination is expected to make TCM diagnosis more standard and open up new opportunities for healthcare development around the world.
1.Why is VOCs analysis adopted in TCM Olfaction Diagnosis?
A.To focus on serious diseases. B.To make diagnosis more objective.
C.To apply artificial intelligence. D.To replace traditional methods.
2.In which step is the “breathprint” formed?
A.Sample Collection. B.VOCs Detection.
C.Data Processing. D.Results Analysis.
3.Where is the text probably taken from?
A.A TCM guidebook. B.A medical exam paper.
C.A patient care brochure. D.A medical technology journal.
【答案】1.B 2.B 3.D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍现代科技如何革新中医闻诊并展望其前景。
1.细节理解题。根据Modern Tech’s Transformation部分中“By analyzing the breathprint, the subjective art of traditional olfactory diagnosis can be converted into objective and measurable data, laying a solid foundation for its scientific standardization. (通过分析呼吸印记,传统嗅觉诊断的主观艺术可以转化为客观可测量的数据,为其科学标准化奠定坚实基础。)”可知,在中医闻诊中采用VOCs分析是为了使诊断更加客观。故选B。
2.细节理解题。根据Modern Tech’s Transformation部分中“These VOCs, when captured and analyzed by modern detecting devices, form a unique digital “breathprint” for each individual — a specific profile of VOCs. (这些VOCs被现代检测设备捕获并分析后,会为每个人形成一个独特的数字“呼吸印记”——一种特定的VOCs特征。)”可知,“呼吸印记”是在VOCs检测这一步骤中形成的。故选B。
3.推理判断题。根据文章标题“TCM Olfaction Diagnosis Meets Modern Sensing Technology (中医闻诊邂逅现代传感技术)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要介绍了中医闻诊与现代传感技术的结合,包括中医闻诊的介绍、现代技术如何改变中医闻诊以及未来的前景等,属于医学科技内容,因此文章可能来自一本医学技术期刊。故选D。
Passage 5
Does your cat or dog suddenly get a burst of energy and perform athletic features around the house? Welcome to the world of zoomies — tense periods of high-energy activity including running, jumping and rolling.
You might see post-bath zoomies, midnight zoomies and out-of-nowhere zoomies. We don’t yet know if zoomies are more likely to occur at certain times of the day, or more in some than others. 1 If the zoomies are occurring as part of your animal’s daily routine, this implies your animal is enjoying themselves. Actually, zoomies have a lot in common with play. 2
Zoomies are mentioned a lot, but there is little scientific research why they occur. Yet some conclusions can be drawn from experience. 3 In dogs, this is commonly a play bow-where the dog appears to “bow” to another to signal it is eager to play. In cats, an invitation may include repeatedly rolling over. If this is the case, your animal is likely experiencing excitement and a desire to interact with you.
4 You should consult with your vet (兽医) if your dog or cat is displaying the behavior (in particular, circling) for too long. It might be a sign of a repetitive behavior disorder. If you struggle to distract or stop the behavior, or if it is resulting in injuries, seek professional assistance.
Even if you don’t get the call of the zoomies yourself, take a moment to enjoy and even join your dog or cat in having fun. 5
A.Sometimes we all need to run wild.
B.You can easily tell they bring a whole load of fun.
C.It is our duty to figure out what they want exactly.
D.Nothing is more annoying than a midnight zoomie.
E.However, we do consider them evidence of a pretty good mood.
F.For example, zoomies can be seen as an invitation for others to join.
G.Sometimes, however, zoomies may be a sign of a medical condition.
【答案】1.E 2.B 3.F 4.G 5.A
【导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了宠物突然出现的“zoomies (疯狂时段)”现象,即高能量活动的爆发,包括奔跑、跳跃和翻滚等,分析了其可能的原因、与玩耍的相似性、可能存在的健康问题,并鼓励主人享受与宠物共度的欢乐时光。
1.上文“We don’t yet know if zoomies are more likely to occur at certain times of the day, or more in some than others. (我们还不知道疯狂时段是否更有可能在一天中的特定时间发生,或者在某些宠物身上比其他宠物更常见。)”说明我们对于疯狂时段发生的时间和频率还不清楚,下文“If the zoomies are occurring as part of your animal’s daily routine, this implies your animal is enjoying themselves. (如果疯狂时段是你宠物日常生活的一部分,这意味着你的宠物玩得很开心。)”说明疯狂时段发生时宠物的心情是好的,E项“然而,我们确实认为它们是心情相当不错的证据。”符合题意,与上文形成转折关系,同时引出下文对宠物心情的描述。故选E。
2.上文“Actually, zoomies have a lot in common with play. (实际上,疯狂时段和玩耍有很多共同之处。)”说明疯狂时段和玩耍有相似性, B项“你很容易就能看出它们带来了很多乐趣。”符合题意,承接上文说明疯狂时段和玩耍一样都能带来乐趣。故选B。
3.上文“Zoomies are mentioned a lot, but there is little scientific research why they occur. Yet some conclusions can be drawn from experience. (疯狂时段经常被提及,但关于它们为什么会发生的科学研究却很少。然而,从经验中可以得出一些结论。)”说明我们可以从经验中得出关于疯狂时段的一些结论,下文“In dogs, this is commonly a play bow-where the dog appears to “bow” to another to signal it is eager to play. In cats, an invitation may include repeatedly rolling over. (在狗身上,这通常是一种玩耍的鞠躬——狗向另一只狗“鞠躬”以表示它渴望玩耍。在猫身上,邀请可能包括反复翻滚。)”说明疯狂时段可能是宠物邀请玩耍的信号,F项“例如,疯狂时段可以被视为邀请其他人加入的信号。”符合题意,引出下文对宠物邀请玩耍信号的描述。故选F。
4.下文“You should consult with your vet (兽医) if your dog or cat is displaying the behavior (in particular, circling) for too long. It might be a sign of a repetitive behavior disorder.

五、书面表达
1.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。续写的词数应为150左右。
Among villagers lived Mark, an odd, thin, short man. Because Mark preferred his ideas for inventions to hard work in a field, he was often laughed at by the villagers. Fortunately, he didn’t have to work in the field, as his grandfather hired him to work at his blacksmith’s workshop.
In his spare moments, Mark would devote himself to his inventions. A year ago, his grandfather made a kettle. Once he was waiting for the water to start boiling in the kettle, he saw the steam come out of the kettle and thought, “The steam comes out at pretty high speed. Could a huge kettle produce enough steam to drive a windmill?”
It took him four months to create something like a steam engine. Mark continued thinking, “I’ll add wings, and it will be able to fly.” Mark built a wooden construction of an air vehicle and he powered the wings with the steam engine. Wings were waving just as birds do; however, the air vehicle didn’t go up even a little. The trial of starting the air vehicle lasted an hour and completely failed. “Hah! I told you that you wouldn’t make it!” his grandfather said, and many villagers laughed at him. But Mark didn’t mind that; he gathered all the courage and was determined to make a change.
He went to the big bookstore in a faraway city and bought books on aircraft construction. He even bought back some parts and used metal sheets from the junkyards. Mark started studying the pictures more exactly. He built a fuselage (机身) with wheels, and he mounted a big airscrew (螺旋桨) on it. He worked hard to gather all the parts needed for the plane according to the drawings. It took Mark another six months to complete his plane. Despite the doubtfulness of his grandfather and other villagers, Mark transported the plane to a cliff atop the mountain with the help of friends. He believed pretty strong winds would significantly help his plane fly and he also believed he could make it this time.
Paragraph 1:
After getting everything ready, Mark got into his plane with a mixture of excitement and nervousness.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Fifteen minutes later, the plane landed by the riverside safely.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
After getting everything ready, Mark got into his plane with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. He felt the weight of his dream resting on his shoulders. He started the engine, and the plane was seen slowly sliding down the cliff. Despite the heavy weight of the fuselage, his plane was able to fly. How happy Mark was! The engine worked pretty well, and the plane made several circles above the village. Looking down below, Mark noticed many villagers jumping and waving to him as if they were celebrating.
Paragraph 2:
Fifteen minutes later, the plane landed by the riverside safely. The villagers all ran there cheering, and Mark saw his grandfather as well, who gave him the thumbs-up sign. The villagers all regarded him as a hero. As Mark watched the sun setting over the horizon, he saw a new world and he felt a desire to reach it. He knew that this was just the beginning of his journey into the realms of invention and discovery. With newfound confidence, he resolved to continue pushing the boundaries of what was possible, fueled by his unshakable belief in the power of innovation.
