Jack, some people think that writers write when they feel like writing and that it is more like a hobby than a job. Do you agree? M: Of course not. Although it’s only recently that writing has become my only job, I’ve never seen it as a hobby. Even when I was a child, I took my stories very seriously. When I was a teacher, I used to start writing at about 9 o’clock in the evening, and go on until about two in the morning. W: And what about now? M: I get up at seven in the morning six days a week and go for a 30-minute run. On Sundays I go swimming. Always sitting at a computer is so unhealthy. I think all writers should at least go for a walk during their working day. W: Where do you write? M: I have my own office, but sometimes I write in the bedroom, in the sitting room, anywhere in the house if I want to, even on the kitchen table. 听下面一段对话，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 10.

But seriously, I know you love exciting things, but not at the expense of safety, I hope. M: Well, you need confidence and courage to do any extreme sport, but I still know my limits. W: Is that because you’re constantly aware of dangers? M: Well, that’s true of all extreme sports. But with climbing, you’re always thinking several moves ahead to figure out the best route and anticipate possible problems. It’s a skill that I’m using in other aspects of my life. W: Well, that sounds great. Maybe I should give it a try! 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17. Who inspired Ann to be a nurse? A. Her father. B. Her teachers. C. Her cousin. 18.

Thanks for turning up to listen to me talk about my career. I hope that some of you will decide to take up nursing in the future because it is a fantastic job. First of all, I’ll tell you a little bit about how I got started. I had no idea what I wanted to do until I was about 14, when I was listening to a family conversation. My cousin was talking to my dad and telling him all about how much she enjoyed her work. She was a nurse in a busy hospital. And I thought, yeah, that’s exactly what I’d like to do. When I told my teachers that’s what I decided, they were very encouraging. But they did say that although I had always got good marks in English and biology, I’d have to get a little better at math, or I wouldn’t be able to do the job. Well, I must say, it wasn’t easy being a student nurse. It involved lots of late nights staying up to do my coursework. But I’d known it would be like that. Anyway, I think I have one of the best jobs in the world. My sister is an accountant, and although she earns far more than I do, I think my job is much more rewarding. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 （共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A If you’re concerned about the cost of gas and the environmental impact of gas-powered cars, and don’t want to worry about the charging challenges associated with the pure electric vehicle (EV), it’s time to take a closer look at a hybrid (混合的) electric vehicle (HEV). While salespeople might simply advise you to “plug in daily and use gas for longer trips,” understanding the underlying mechanics is key to determining if an HEV truly fits your needs. Essentially, an HEV offers you the best of gas cars and EVs. An HEV has two sources of power: an internal combustion (燃烧) engine (ICE) and at least one electric motor. There are two main types of HEV: parallel (并联式) hybrid and series hybrid. The parallel hybrid (PHEV) aims to keep the core designs of the conventional gas-powered vehicles while lowering the operation costs and improving the environmental performance. Reduced to its basics, its system uses ICE and electric motors to power the wheels — either together or independently. This structure performs reliably on long-distance journeys and complex road conditions, where the combustion engine operates efficiently. In the case of series hybrid (SHEV), the vehicle runs only on electricity, which is from the battery. When the battery is exhausted, the ICE switches on — not to drive the wheels directly, but to power the generator and charge the battery. This setup offers smoother and quieter driving operation which is similar to pure electric vehicles. It’s generally more eco-friendly, and further reduces the cost of use. In today’s market, conventional gas cars are going significantly cheaper, while stylish pure electric vehicles have become symbols of modern status. The HEV, striking a practical balance between these two extremes, certainly deserves a closer look. Properties Parallel Hybrid Series hybrid Urban Efficiency Lower Higher Highway Efficiency Higher Lower Fuel Consumption Higher Lower Power Performance Higher Lower Sales Price Lower Higher 21. What is an advantage of HEVs compared with other types of vehicles? A. They’re simpler in design. B. They’re cheaper to purchase. C. They’re more eco-friendly. D. They’re more practical to use. 22. What does the ICE in a series hybrid car directly work on? A. Replacing the generator. B. Driving the wheels. C. Starting the electric motor. D. Charging the battery. 23. In which aspect are PHEVs generally better than SHEVs? A. Mountain road driving. B. In-city transportation. C. Waste gases production. D. Vehicle running costs. 【答案】21. D 22. D 23. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要介绍混合动力汽车的定义、两种类型的工作原理、性能对比及兼具燃油车和电动车优势的实用特点。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“If you’re concerned about the cost of gas and the environmental impact of gas-powered cars, and don’t want to worry about the charging challenges associated with the pure electric vehicle (EV), it’s time to take a closer look at a hybrid electric vehicle (HEV).(如果你担心燃油车的油费和环境影响，又不想为纯电动汽车的充电难题烦恼，是时候深入了解一下混合动力汽车了。)”和最后一段中的“The HEV, striking a practical balance between these two extremes, certainly deserves a closer look.(混合动力汽车在这两种极端车型之间实现了实用的平衡，确实值得关注。)”可知，混合动力汽车相比其他车型的优势是使用更实用。故选D项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When the battery is exhausted, the ICE switches on — not to drive the wheels directly, but to power the generator and charge the battery.(当电池电量耗尽时，内燃机启动，并非直接驱动车轮，而是为发电机供电并给电池充电。)”可知，串联混合动力汽车中的内燃机直接负责给电池充电。故选D项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“This structure performs reliably on long-distance journeys and complex road conditions, where the combustion engine operates efficiently.(这种结构在长途行驶和复杂路况下表现可靠，内燃机可高效运行。)”和表格中并联式混合动力汽车公路效率更高的特点可知，并联式混合动力汽车在山路等复杂路况行驶方面更有优势。故选A项。 B The Spring Festival, traditionally a time for familial reunion and ancestral veneration, has undergone a profound metamorphosis in the digital age. While the red lanterns and dumplings remain symbolic constants, the underlying social dynamics have shifted from physical proximity to virtual connectivity. The ritual of the “New Year’s visit” has largely been supplanted by the instantaneous transmission of digital red packets and algorithmic greetings. This transition reflects a broader societal trend where the “Cowherd” archetype — the figure separated from his beloved by the vast, uncrossable Milky Way — finds a modern parallel in the urban migrant worker or the overseas student. Just as the magpies formed a bridge for the celestial lovers once a year, high-speed rail and 5G networks now serve as the technological magpies, bridging the geographical chasm that separates families. However, critics argue that this digital mediation creates a “virtual intimacy” that lacks the tactile warmth of traditional interaction, potentially eroding the very essence of kinship that the festival was designed to reinforce. The tension between the preservation of agrarian heritage and the embrace of technological modernity remains a defining characteristic of contemporary Chinese celebrations. 24. According to the passage, what is the primary function of technology in the context of the modern Spring Festival? A. To replace traditional food customs with digital alternatives. B. To facilitate a connection that overcomes geographical separation. C. To eliminate the need for ancestral veneration entirely. D. To create a new mythology based on the “Cowherd” archetype. 25. The author mentions the “Cowherd” archetype primarily to A. illustrate the enduring relevance of ancient myths in modern society. B. criticize the lack of romanticism in contemporary urban life. C. draw a parallel between mythical separation and modern physical distance. D. explain the historical origins of the Spring Festival traditions. 26. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards “digital red packets”? A. Unreservedly enthusiastic. B. Indifferent and detached. C. Objectively analytical with a hint of concern. D. Strongly critical and dismissive. 27. It can be inferred from the passage that “virtual intimacy” is considered problematic because it A. is too expensive for the average migrant worker. B. fails to provide the physical presence essential to traditional kinship. C. relies too heavily on the 5G network infrastructure. D. encourages people to travel less during the holidays. 【答案】24. B 25. C 26. C 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍数字时代下春节的变迁，科技弥补了地域距离，也带来了传统亲情淡化的争议与思考。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中的“Just as the magpies formed a bridge for the celestial lovers once a year, high-speed rail and 5G networks now serve as the technological magpies, bridging the geographical chasm that separates families.(就像喜鹊每年为天上的恋人搭起鹊桥一样，高铁和5G网络如今成为科技鹊桥，跨越分隔家庭的地理鸿沟。)”可知，现代春节中科技的主要作用是帮助人们克服地理距离实现联系。故选B项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中的“This transition reflects a broader societal trend where the “Cowherd” archetype — the figure separated from his beloved by the vast, uncrossable Milky Way — finds a modern parallel in the urban migrant worker or the overseas student.(这种转变反映了更广泛的社会趋势：被浩瀚银河隔开的牛郎形象，与现代外出务工人员或留学生形成对应。)”可知，作者提及牛郎是为了将神话中的分离与现代亲人的物理距离作类比。故选C项。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中的“While the red lanterns and dumplings remain symbolic constants, the underlying social dynamics have shifted from physical proximity to virtual connectivity. The ritual of the “New Year’s visit” has largely been supplanted by the instantaneous transmission of digital red packets and algorithmic greetings. However, critics argue that this digital mediation creates a “virtual intimacy” that lacks the tactile warmth of traditional interaction, potentially eroding the very essence of kinship that the festival was designed to reinforce.(红灯笼和饺子依旧是不变的文化象征，但深层的社会互动模式已从线下相聚转向线上联结。拜年的传统习俗在很大程度上被即时发送的数字红包和算法生成的祝福所取代。然而批评者认为，这种数字媒介营造出的“虚拟亲密”缺乏传统交往的触感温暖，有可能削弱节日本应强化的亲情本质。)”可知，作者既客观陈述了数字红包取代传统拜年的现实变化，也提及了该现象带来的负面争议，态度为客观分析并带有一丝担忧。故选C项。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中的“However, critics argue that this digital mediation creates a “virtual intimacy” that lacks the tactile warmth of traditional interaction, potentially eroding the very essence of kinship that the festival was designed to reinforce.(然而批评者认为，这种数字媒介营造出的“虚拟亲密”缺乏传统交往的触感温暖，有可能削弱节日本应强化的亲情本质。)”可知，虚拟亲密被认为存在问题，是因为它无法提供传统亲情所必需的面对面真实陪伴。故选B项。 C In 1998, researchers Larry Page and Sergey Brin published a paper titled The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine. In the paper, they anticipated the rise of algorithms(算法). Later that same year, the two developed the search algorithm, PageRank, which revolutionized the early web by prioritizing pages according to the number and types of links on each page. Today, PageRank is still around, but it has fallen victim to algorithms. The broader web landscape has abandoned its original promise: to enable us to be the best and most genuine version of ourselves. Instead, we’re trapped in a system that emphasizes sameness and discourages individuality, all at the hands of algorithms that have gone wild. Algorithms make it impossible to go online without encountering content that claims it’s been “selected for you”. But they don’t recognize how complex and ever-changing human tastes can be. Because of their overly simplistic calculations, we are rarely shown anything new, different, or exciting. For example, Spotify listeners end up hearing the same songs and artists over and over. The combination of the universality of algorithms and the addictiveness of the platforms threatens to flatten our individual tastes. The algorithms push us all toward the same ideas while making it harder for free-thinkers and subcultures to rise up. But innovation requires those who are willing and able to go against algorithmic trend cycles. Societal innovation and advancement at large will stagnate(停滞) in such environments. We already see this happening. It’s why every single new movie is either a reboot, remake, requel, prequel, or sequel(续集). And it’s why the clothes younger generations consider trendy look similar to what we wore in our childhood. Undoubtedly, algorithms are here to stay. But if we hope to avoid innovation stagnation, taste must be returned to its rightful owners. We all have a hand in making that happen. 28. How did Larry Page and Sergey Brin affect the web in 1998? A. They broke its original promise. B. They boosted its development. C. They prevented it from going wild. D. They shifted its focus to individuality. 29. What can be known about the algorithm-controlled content we get according to paragraph 3? A. It can always amaze and excite us. B. It is based on complex calculations. C. It features repetition and predictability. D. It matches our ever-changing tastes. 30. Why are the examples mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To highlight the universality of algorithms. B. To analyze the reason for algorithmic stagnation. C. To explain the concept of algorithmic trend cycles. D. To show how algorithms negatively impact innovation. 31. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text? A. To remind us to make full use of algorithms. B. To encourage innovation in algorithmic design. C. To demonstrate the incredible power of algorithms. D. To urge us to try to get out of the algorithmic trap. 【答案】28. B 29. C 30. D 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章以1998年拉里·佩奇和谢尔盖·布林开发的PageRank算法为切入点，阐述算法如今虽普遍存在，但因其过度简化计算，导致内容重复、缺乏新意，威胁到个人品味与社会创新，作者呼吁人们摆脱算法陷阱。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Later that same year, the two developed the search algorithm, PageRank, which revolutionized the early web by prioritizing pages according to the number and types of links on each page.(同年晚些时候，两人开发了搜索算法PageRank，该算法根据每个页面上链接的数量和类型对页面进行优先级排序，彻底改变了早期的网络)”可知，拉里·佩奇和谢尔盖·布林开发的算法彻底改变了早期网络，推动了网络的发展。故选B项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Algorithms make it impossible to go online without encountering content that claims it’s been “selected for you”. But they don’t recognize how complex and ever-changing human tastes can be. Because of their overly simplistic calculations, we are rarely shown anything new, different, or exciting. For example, Spotify listeners end up hearing the same songs and artists over and over.(算法使得我们上网时不可避免地会遇到声称是“为你精选”的内容。但它们没有意识到人类的品味是多么复杂和多变。由于它们的计算过于简单，我们很少看到新的、不同的或令人兴奋的东西。例如，Spotify的听众最终会反复听到相同的歌曲和歌手)”可知，算法控制的内容具有重复性和可预测性，因为其计算简单，不能匹配人类多变的品味，很少提供新内容。故选C项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“The algorithms push us all toward the same ideas while making it harder for free-thinkers and subcultures to rise up. But innovation requires those who are willing and able to go against algorithmic trend cycles. Societal innovation and advancement at large will stagnate(停滞) in such environments.(算法将我们推向相同的想法，同时使自由思想者和亚文化更难兴起。但创新需要那些愿意并能够逆算法趋势周期而行的人。在这样的环境中，社会创新和进步总体上将会停滞)”以及第五段“We already see this happening. It’s why every single new movie is either a reboot, remake, requel, prequel, or sequel(续集). And it’s why the clothes younger generations consider trendy look similar to what we wore in our childhood.(我们已经看到这种情况正在发生。这就是为什么每一部新电影要么是重启版、翻拍版、续作、前传，要么是续集。这也是为什么年轻一代认为时尚的衣服看起来和我们小时候穿的很相似)”可知，第五段的例子是为了说明算法对创新产生了负面影响，导致创新停滞。故选D项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。文章开篇介绍算法起源，接着阐述如今算法带来的问题，如内容重复、抑制创新等，最后一段呼吁“Undoubtedly, algorithms are here to stay. But if we hope to avoid innovation stagnation, taste must be returned to its rightful owners. We all have a hand in making that happen.(毫无疑问，算法会一直存在。但如果我们希望避免创新停滞，就必须将品味交还给其真正的主人（即用户自己 ）。我们每个人都可以为此出一份力)”可知，短文的目的是摆脱算法陷阱，避免创新停滞。故选D项。 D Past research has shown that children who grew up bilingual (双语的) have enhanced sensitivities to communicative cues (提示) and are more capable of understanding a speaker’s context and intent. An area that had yet to be explored was the role of bilingualism in a child’s ability to assess communicative hints along with the speaker’s context and intent. Associate Professor Yow Wei Quin from the Singapore University of Technology and Design addressed this gap by investigating how children with varying language backgrounds consider context when evaluating a speaker’s reliability in communicative cues. The participating children, aged between three and five, were tasked with finding a sticker hidden in one of two boxes, which were either transparent or partially covered. An informant was present to aid them by giving accurate or inaccurate cues to the whereabouts of the sticker. Yow found that children with greater language diversity were more sensitive to contextual factors when assessing the informant’s reliability than those with less language diversity. When the informant had visual access to information, these children would selectively trust the informant if he or she had previously provided accurate cues ,but not when he or she provided inaccurate cues in the past. On the other hand, if the children chalked the informant’s former inaccuracy up to the lack of visual access to information, they showed comparable trust towards both accurate and inaccurate informant. “The advantages of bilingualism in children’s social-cognitive (社会认知的) development likely result from a greater communicative flexibility that the children have acquired in order to interact socially with people from different language and cultural backgrounds,” Yow explained. Through this research, Yow aims to develop ideas on ways to accept language diversity. Her next step is to extend her research to the role of multilingualism in children’s development and the impact of language diversity in adulthood. Her team is evaluating how bilingual experiences promote cognitive and brain plasticity, believing that these new insights can help humans make use of the advantages of language diversity for personal growth and social unity. 32. Which aspect of bilingual children did Yow’s research focus on? A. Their multicultural awareness. B. The role of their bilingualism in information assessment. C. The level of their language proficiency. D. Their communicative competence. 33. What were the bilingual children asked to do in the research? A. Seek help from the informants. B. Provide visual information. C. Locate a hidden object. D. Pick the right box from the two. 34. How did the bilingual children complete their task? A. By talking with their companions. B. By using their bilingual knowledge. C. By asking the informant’s questions. D. By considering contextual factors. 35. What will Yow’s follow-up research focus on? A. Advantages of multilingualism. B. Social impacts of bilingual experience. C. Promotion of bilingual education. D. Cultural significance of language diversity. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了新加坡科技设计大学的Yow Wei Quin副教授针对双语儿童展开的研究。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“An area that had yet to be explored was the role of bilingualism in a child’s ability to assess communicative hints along with the speaker’s context and intent. Associate Professor Yow Wei Quin from the Singapore University of Technology and Design addressed this gap by investigating how children with varying language backgrounds consider context when evaluating a speaker’s reliability in communicative cues.(有待探索的一个领域是双语能力在儿童结合说话者的语境和意图评估交流提示能力中所扮演的角色。新加坡科技设计大学的Yow Wei Quin副教授通过研究不同语言背景的儿童在评估说话者交流提示可信度时如何考量语境，填补了这一研究空白。)”可知，Yow的研究聚焦于双语能力在儿童信息评估（评估交流提示、判断说话者可信度）中的作用。故选B项。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The participating children, aged between three and five, were tasked with finding a sticker hidden in one of two boxes, which were either transparent or partially covered.(参与研究的儿童年龄在3至5岁之间，他们的任务是找到藏在两个盒子中的一个里的贴纸，这些要么是透明的，要么是部分被遮盖的。)”可知，参与研究的双语儿童被要求找到藏在盒子里的贴纸，即，定位隐藏的物品。故选C项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Yow found that children with greater language diversity were more sensitive to contextual factors when assessing the informant’s reliability than those with less language diversity.(Yow发现，语言多样性程度更高的儿童在评估信息提供者的可信度时，比语言多样性程度较低的儿童对语境因素更敏感。)”可知，双语儿童通过考虑语境因素来完成寻找贴纸的任务，他们会依据语境判断信息提供者的可信度。故选D项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中的“Her next step is to extend her research to the role of multilingualism in children’s development and the impact of language diversity in adulthood.(她的下一步计划是将研究扩展到多语能力在儿童发展中的作用以及语言多样性在成年后的影响。)”可知，Yow后续研究将聚焦于多语能力在儿童发展中的作用和对成年后的积极影响，即，多语能力的优势。故选A项。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) ___36___ When thinking about future events, optimists’ brains work similarly, while pessimists’ show greater individuality. A Kobe University finding explains why optimists are more sociable — they may share a common vision of the future. Optimists tend to have more satisfying social relationships and wider networks. ___37___ Psychologist YANAGISAWA Kuniaki wonders: “Why is this? Recent studies show people in central social positions have similar brain responses to stimuli. So those with similar attitudes toward the future may imagine it similarly, making understanding each other easier.” ___38___ To test this idea, Yanagisawa put together a team from social psychology and brain science. They aimed to find out how thinking about the future appears in the brain. “The question was untouched as it lies between two fields, but their combination opened this black box,” Yanagisawa said. ___39___ They recruited 87 people ranging from pessimists to optimists, asking them to imagine future events. Their brain activity was recorded via functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The experiment provided clear brain evidence for the initial idea. ___40___ This similarity not only explains optimists’ better social connections but also offers new insights into how brain function shapes social behavior. A. Have you ever wondered why optimists often have better social lives? B. This similarity in brain function may explain their stronger social connections. C. A key question came up: Could this brain similarity be the reason? D. The lack of earlier research comes from the topic’s cross-field nature. E. Brain activity patterns tracked by fMRI showed consistent brain responses in optimists. F. Pessimists, by contrast, struggle to form such shared thinking patterns. G. Social psychology and brain science rarely work together on such cross-field topics. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. B 39. D 40. E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍一项关于乐观者大脑活动的研究，解释乐观者社交更好的原因，即他们思考未来时大脑反应相似。 【36题详解】 根据后文“When thinking about future events, optimists’ brains work similarly, while pessimists’ show greater individuality. A Kobe University finding explains why optimists are more sociable — they may share a common vision of the future. (思考未来事件时，乐观者的大脑运作方式相似，而悲观者则表现出更强的个体差异。神户大学的一项研究解释了为什么乐观者更善于社交——他们可能对未来有着共同的愿景。)”可知，后文开始解释乐观者社交能力更好的原因，此空应提出相关疑问，A选项“Have you ever wondered why optimists often have better social lives? (你有没有想过为什么乐观者通常拥有更好的社交生活？)”引出下文对原因的解释，符合语境。故选A项。 【37题详解】 根据前文“Optimists tend to have more satisfying social relationships and wider networks. (乐观者往往拥有更令人满意的社交关系和更广泛的人脉。)”以及后文“Psychologist YANAGISAWA Kuniaki wonders: “Why is this? Recent studies show people in central social positions have similar brain responses to stimuli. So those with similar attitudes toward the future may imagine it similarly, making understanding each other easier.” (心理学家柳泽国昭提出疑问：“为什么会这样？最近的研究表明，处于社交中心位置的人对刺激的大脑反应相似。因此，那些对未来态度相似的人可能会以相似的方式想象未来，从而更容易相互理解。”)”可知，前文提出乐观者社交更好的现象，后文心理学家对此提出疑问并给出相关研究依据，此空应承接上文，提出关于大脑相似性是否为原因的关键问题，C选项“A key question came up: Could this brain similarity be the reason? (一个关键问题出现了：这种大脑相似性会不会就是原因？)”承上启下，符合语境。故选C项。 【38题详解】 根据后文“To test this idea, Yanagisawa put together a team from social psychology and brain science. They aimed to find out how thinking about the future appears in the brain. (为了验证这一想法，柳泽组建了一支由社会心理学和脑科学领域人员组成的团队。他们旨在弄清思考未来在大脑中是如何体现的。)”可知，后文说明要验证前文提到的想法，此空应先点明这个想法的内容，即大脑功能的相似性可以解释他们更强的社交联系，B选项“This similarity in brain function may explain their stronger social connections. (这种大脑功能的相似性或许可以解释他们更强的社交联系。)”承接上文的疑问，且引出后文的验证实验，符合语境。故选B项。 【39题详解】 根据前文““The question was untouched as it lies between two fields, but their combination opened this black box,” Yanagisawa said. (柳泽说：“这个问题之前无人触及，因为它介于两个领域之间，但两者的结合打开了这个黑匣子。”)”可知，前文说明该问题因跨领域而未被研究，此空应进一步解释缺乏早期研究的原因，D选项“The lack of earlier research comes from the topic’s cross-field nature. (早期研究的缺乏源于该话题的跨领域属性。)”与前文内容相呼应，解释了原因，符合语境。故选D项。 【40题详解】 根据前文“The experiment provided clear brain evidence for the initial idea. (实验为最初的想法提供了明确的大脑证据。)”以及后文“This similarity not only explains optimists’ better social connections but also offers new insights into how brain function shapes social behavior. (这种相似性不仅解释了乐观者更好的社交联系，也为大脑功能如何塑造社交行为提供了新的见解。)”可知，前文说明实验得到了证据，后文提到这种相似性，此空应说明实验中fMRI的检测结果，即乐观者的大脑反应一致，E选项“Brain activity patterns tracked by fMRI showed consistent brain responses in optimists. (功能性磁共振成像追踪的大脑活动模式显示，乐观者的大脑反应一致。)”给出实验的具体结果，且引出后文的相似性，符合语境。故选E项。 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节：完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，共15分） The diagnosis arrived like a seismic shift, fracturing the landscape of my life into a “before” and “after”. Cancer, an insidious ___41___ of nature’s own cellular machinery, had taken residence within me.

The experience has ___54___ me, stripping away the superficial and revealing a core of profound gratitude for the simple, miraculous act of being.

For Elias, its keeper, the structure was not a prison but a sanctuary from a world that had long ago ceased to make sense. His life was a monotonous rhythm of polishing the great lens, winding the clockwork mechanism, and logging the weather in a leather-bound journal. His only companion was the silence, a palpable entity that filled the stone chambers. One tempestuous night, the silence was shattered. A frantic pounding echoed through the heavy oak door. Elias, his heart a reluctant drum, unbolted it to find a young woman, drenched and shivering, her eyes wide with a terror that transcended the storm. She spoke in fragmented gasps of a carriage accident, of a precipice, of being the sole survivor. Elias, a man of few words and fewer emotions, took her in. He gave her dry clothes, a warm hearth, and a mug of bitter tea. She introduced herself as Clara. Over the next few days, as the storm raged on, a tentative connection formed. She spoke of the city, of art and music, things Elias had renounced decades ago. He, in turn, found himself recounting stories of shipwrecks and strange, bioluminescent creatures that danced in the abyssal depths. For a fleeting moment, the ghost of a smile touched his weathered lips. But on the third morning, while fetching water from a hidden cove, Elias stumbled upon a sight that froze the blood in his veins. There, nestled among the rocks, was the wreckage of a carriage. And beside it, half-buried in the sand, was a woman’s glove, its fabric embroidered with a distinctive crest—a crest he recognized all too well. It was the same crest that adorned the signet ring on the finger of the man who had, thirty years prior, betrayed him, stolen his inheritance, and driven him into this self-imposed exile. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Elias returned to the lighthouse, the glove concealed in his pocket, his mind a tempest of conflicting emotions. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As Clara prepared to leave, she turned to Elias, her eyes holding a question that demanded an answer. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Elias returned to the lighthouse, the glove concealed in his pocket, his mind a tempest of conflicting emotions. He observed Clara closely, her every feature now a potential clue. Was she sent by his enemy to mock him? Yet, her innocence seemed genuine, her fear real. He wrestled with his past, the betrayal still raw, but also with the present, where Clara had brought a glimmer of warmth into his cold existence. He decided to wait, to watch, and to see what truth would reveal itself. As Clara prepared to leave, she turned to Elias, her eyes holding a question that demanded an answer. Elias, after a moment’s hesitation, reached into his pocket and produced the glove. "I found this," he said, his voice steady but laden with meaning. Clara’s eyes widened in surprise, then understanding. She explained that the glove belonged to her mother, who had been in the carriage with her. Elias’s heart softened as he realized Clara was not his enemy, but a victim of the same betrayal. He offered to escort her to the village, his steps lighter with the weight of forgiveness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物情感与真相探寻为线索展开，讲述了灯塔守护者Elias在收留遭遇车祸的年轻女子Clara后，意外发现与自己过往背叛恩怨相关的线索，内心经历挣扎，最终在真相揭晓时完成情感转变的故事。 【详解】段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“伊莱亚斯回到灯塔，手套藏在口袋里，他的脑海中翻腾着复杂的情绪。”可知，第一段可描写Elias面对Clara时内心的矛盾与挣扎，既因手套线索怀疑她与仇人有关，又被她的真诚打动，最终决定静待真相。 ②由第二段首句内容“克拉拉准备离开时，转身看向伊莱亚斯，她的眼中带着一个亟待解答的问题。”可知，第二段可描写Elias拿出手套与Clara对峙，Clara揭晓手套归属，Elias明白真相后放下仇恨，主动护送Clara前往村庄。 续写线索：回到灯塔——内心挣扎——观察Clara——决定等待真相——Clara询问——拿出手套——Clara解释——真相揭晓——放下仇恨——护送离开 词汇激活 行为类 ①观察：observe/ scrutinize ②决定：decide/ resolve ③解释：explain/ elaborate on 情绪类 ①恐惧：fear /dread ②原谅；宽恕：forgiveness / magnanimity 【点睛】[高分句型1]. He decided to wait, to watch, and to see what truth would reveal itself.（使用了what引导的宾语从句） [高分句型2].

While salespeople might simply advise you to “plug in daily and use gas for longer trips,” understanding the underlying mechanics is key to determining if an HEV truly fits your needs. Essentially, an HEV offers you the best of gas cars and EVs. An HEV has two sources of power: an internal combustion (燃烧) engine (ICE) and at least one electric motor. There are two main types of HEV: parallel (并联式) hybrid and series hybrid. The parallel hybrid (PHEV) aims to keep the core designs of the conventional gas-powered vehicles while lowering the operation costs and improving the environmental performance. Reduced to its basics, its system uses ICE and electric motors to power the wheels — either together or independently. This structure performs reliably on long-distance journeys and complex road conditions, where the combustion engine operates efficiently. In the case of series hybrid (SHEV), the vehicle runs only on electricity, which is from the battery. When the battery is exhausted, the ICE switches on — not to drive the wheels directly, but to power the generator and charge the battery. This setup offers smoother and quieter driving operation which is similar to pure electric vehicles. It’s generally more eco-friendly, and further reduces the cost of use. In today’s market, conventional gas cars are going significantly cheaper, while stylish pure electric vehicles have become symbols of modern status. The HEV, striking a practical balance between these two extremes, certainly deserves a closer look. Properties Parallel Hybrid Series hybrid Urban Efficiency Lower Higher Highway Efficiency Higher Lower Fuel Consumption Higher Lower Power Performance Higher Lower Sales Price Lower Higher 21. What is an advantage of HEVs compared with other types of vehicles? A. They’re simpler in design. B. They’re cheaper to purchase. C. They’re more eco-friendly. D. They’re more practical to use. 22. What does the ICE in a series hybrid car directly work on? A. Replacing the generator. B. Driving the wheels. C. Starting the electric motor. D. Charging the battery. 23. In which aspect are PHEVs generally better than SHEVs? A. Mountain road driving. B. In-city transportation. C. Waste gases production. D. Vehicle running costs. B The Spring Festival, traditionally a time for familial reunion and ancestral veneration, has undergone a profound metamorphosis in the digital age. While the red lanterns and dumplings remain symbolic constants, the underlying social dynamics have shifted from physical proximity to virtual connectivity. The ritual of the “New Year’s visit” has largely been supplanted by the instantaneous transmission of digital red packets and algorithmic greetings. This transition reflects a broader societal trend where the “Cowherd” archetype — the figure separated from his beloved by the vast, uncrossable Milky Way — finds a modern parallel in the urban migrant worker or the overseas student. Just as the magpies formed a bridge for the celestial lovers once a year, high-speed rail and 5G networks now serve as the technological magpies, bridging the geographical chasm that separates families. However, critics argue that this digital mediation creates a “virtual intimacy” that lacks the tactile warmth of traditional interaction, potentially eroding the very essence of kinship that the festival was designed to reinforce. The tension between the preservation of agrarian heritage and the embrace of technological modernity remains a defining characteristic of contemporary Chinese celebrations. 24. According to the passage, what is the primary function of technology in the context of the modern Spring Festival? A. To replace traditional food customs with digital alternatives. B. To facilitate a connection that overcomes geographical separation. C. To eliminate the need for ancestral veneration entirely. D. To create a new mythology based on the “Cowherd” archetype. 25. The author mentions the “Cowherd” archetype primarily to A. illustrate the enduring relevance of ancient myths in modern society. B. criticize the lack of romanticism in contemporary urban life. C. draw a parallel between mythical separation and modern physical distance. D. explain the historical origins of the Spring Festival traditions. 26. Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards “digital red packets”? A. Unreservedly enthusiastic. B. Indifferent and detached. C. Objectively analytical with a hint of concern. D. Strongly critical and dismissive. 27. It can be inferred from the passage that “virtual intimacy” is considered problematic because it A. is too expensive for the average migrant worker. B. fails to provide the physical presence essential to traditional kinship. C. relies too heavily on the 5G network infrastructure. D. encourages people to travel less during the holidays. C In 1998, researchers Larry Page and Sergey Brin published a paper titled The Anatomy of a Large-Scale Hypertextual Web Search Engine. In the paper, they anticipated the rise of algorithms(算法). Later that same year, the two developed the search algorithm, PageRank, which revolutionized the early web by prioritizing pages according to the number and types of links on each page. Today, PageRank is still around, but it has fallen victim to algorithms. The broader web landscape has abandoned its original promise: to enable us to be the best and most genuine version of ourselves. Instead, we’re trapped in a system that emphasizes sameness and discourages individuality, all at the hands of algorithms that have gone wild. Algorithms make it impossible to go online without encountering content that claims it’s been “selected for you”. But they don’t recognize how complex and ever-changing human tastes can be. Because of their overly simplistic calculations, we are rarely shown anything new, different, or exciting. For example, Spotify listeners end up hearing the same songs and artists over and over. The combination of the universality of algorithms and the addictiveness of the platforms threatens to flatten our individual tastes. The algorithms push us all toward the same ideas while making it harder for free-thinkers and subcultures to rise up. But innovation requires those who are willing and able to go against algorithmic trend cycles. Societal innovation and advancement at large will stagnate(停滞) in such environments. We already see this happening. It’s why every single new movie is either a reboot, remake, requel, prequel, or sequel(续集). And it’s why the clothes younger generations consider trendy look similar to what we wore in our childhood. Undoubtedly, algorithms are here to stay. But if we hope to avoid innovation stagnation, taste must be returned to its rightful owners. We all have a hand in making that happen. 28. How did Larry Page and Sergey Brin affect the web in 1998? A. They broke its original promise. B. They boosted its development. C. They prevented it from going wild. D. They shifted its focus to individuality. 29. What can be known about the algorithm-controlled content we get according to paragraph 3? A. It can always amaze and excite us. B. It is based on complex calculations. C. It features repetition and predictability. D. It matches our ever-changing tastes. 30. Why are the examples mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To highlight the universality of algorithms. B. To analyze the reason for algorithmic stagnation. C. To explain the concept of algorithmic trend cycles. D. To show how algorithms negatively impact innovation. 31. What is the author’s main purpose in writing the text? A. To remind us to make full use of algorithms. B. To encourage innovation in algorithmic design. C. To demonstrate the incredible power of algorithms. D. To urge us to try to get out of the algorithmic trap. D Past research has shown that children who grew up bilingual (双语的) have enhanced sensitivities to communicative cues (提示) and are more capable of understanding a speaker’s context and intent. An area that had yet to be explored was the role of bilingualism in a child’s ability to assess communicative hints along with the speaker’s context and intent. Associate Professor Yow Wei Quin from the Singapore University of Technology and Design addressed this gap by investigating how children with varying language backgrounds consider context when evaluating a speaker’s reliability in communicative cues. The participating children, aged between three and five, were tasked with finding a sticker hidden in one of two boxes, which were either transparent or partially covered. An informant was present to aid them by giving accurate or inaccurate cues to the whereabouts of the sticker. Yow found that children with greater language diversity were more sensitive to contextual factors when assessing the informant’s reliability than those with less language diversity. When the informant had visual access to information, these children would selectively trust the informant if he or she had previously provided accurate cues ,but not when he or she provided inaccurate cues in the past. On the other hand, if the children chalked the informant’s former inaccuracy up to the lack of visual access to information, they showed comparable trust towards both accurate and inaccurate informant. “The advantages of bilingualism in children’s social-cognitive (社会认知的) development likely result from a greater communicative flexibility that the children have acquired in order to interact socially with people from different language and cultural backgrounds,” Yow explained. Through this research, Yow aims to develop ideas on ways to accept language diversity. Her next step is to extend her research to the role of multilingualism in children’s development and the impact of language diversity in adulthood. Her team is evaluating how bilingual experiences promote cognitive and brain plasticity, believing that these new insights can help humans make use of the advantages of language diversity for personal growth and social unity. 32. Which aspect of bilingual children did Yow’s research focus on? A. Their multicultural awareness. B. The role of their bilingualism in information assessment. C. The level of their language proficiency. D. Their communicative competence. 33. What were the bilingual children asked to do in the research? A. Seek help from the informants. B. Provide visual information. C. Locate a hidden object. D. Pick the right box from the two. 34. How did the bilingual children complete their task? A. By talking with their companions. B. By using their bilingual knowledge. C. By asking the informant’s questions. D. By considering contextual factors. 35. What will Yow’s follow-up research focus on? A. Advantages of multilingualism. B. Social impacts of bilingual experience. C. Promotion of bilingual education. D. Cultural significance of language diversity. 第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分) ___36___ When thinking about future events, optimists’ brains work similarly, while pessimists’ show greater individuality. A Kobe University finding explains why optimists are more sociable — they may share a common vision of the future. Optimists tend to have more satisfying social relationships and wider networks. ___37___ Psychologist YANAGISAWA Kuniaki wonders: “Why is this? Recent studies show people in central social positions have similar brain responses to stimuli. So those with similar attitudes toward the future may imagine it similarly, making understanding each other easier.” ___38___ To test this idea, Yanagisawa put together a team from social psychology and brain science. They aimed to find out how thinking about the future appears in the brain. “The question was untouched as it lies between two fields, but their combination opened this black box,” Yanagisawa said. ___39___ They recruited 87 people ranging from pessimists to optimists, asking them to imagine future events. Their brain activity was recorded via functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). The experiment provided clear brain evidence for the initial idea. ___40___ This similarity not only explains optimists’ better social connections but also offers new insights into how brain function shapes social behavior. A. Have you ever wondered why optimists often have better social lives? B. This similarity in brain function may explain their stronger social connections. C. A key question came up: Could this brain similarity be the reason? D. The lack of earlier research comes from the topic’s cross-field nature. E. Brain activity patterns tracked by fMRI showed consistent brain responses in optimists. F. Pessimists, by contrast, struggle to form such shared thinking patterns. G. Social psychology and brain science rarely work together on such cross-field topics. 第三部分 英语知识运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节：完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，共15分） The diagnosis arrived like a seismic shift, fracturing the landscape of my life into a “before” and “after”. Cancer, an insidious ___41___ of nature’s own cellular machinery, had taken residence within me.

In the depths of this struggle, I found an unexpected ___47___ in the natural world. A single, resilient dandelion pushing through a crack in the hospital pavement became a symbol of tenacious life. The relentless cycle of the seasons, the quiet ___48___ of a tree shedding its leaves only to bud again, offered a silent, profound lesson in resilience. Nature, in its indifferent yet cyclical grandeur, did not offer platitudes but a stark, beautiful truth: life persists, adapts, and regenerates. This ___49___ with the natural world sparked a fundamental shift in my perspective. I began to see my body not as a traitor, but as a complex ecosystem thrown into disarray. The goal was no longer just to “fight” a war, but to restore a delicate ___50___ I incorporated meditation, drawing strength from the stillness of a forest, and gentle yoga, aligning my breath with the rhythmic pulse of the earth. These were not cures, but acts of ___51___, a way to harmonize my internal chaos with the external order of the universe. The journey was not linear. There were setbacks, moments of despair that felt like an endless winter. Yet, the memory of that dandelion, the ___52___ of the spring sun, and the quiet patience of the ancient oaks in the nearby park became my anchors. They reminded me that healing is not a conquest, but a process of ___53___, of learning to live with the scars, both visible and invisible. Today, in remission, I carry this newfound wisdom. The experience has ___54___ me, stripping away the superficial and revealing a core of profound gratitude for the simple, miraculous act of being.

For Elias, its keeper, the structure was not a prison but a sanctuary from a world that had long ago ceased to make sense. His life was a monotonous rhythm of polishing the great lens, winding the clockwork mechanism, and logging the weather in a leather-bound journal. His only companion was the silence, a palpable entity that filled the stone chambers. One tempestuous night, the silence was shattered. A frantic pounding echoed through the heavy oak door. Elias, his heart a reluctant drum, unbolted it to find a young woman, drenched and shivering, her eyes wide with a terror that transcended the storm. She spoke in fragmented gasps of a carriage accident, of a precipice, of being the sole survivor. Elias, a man of few words and fewer emotions, took her in. He gave her dry clothes, a warm hearth, and a mug of bitter tea. She introduced herself as Clara. Over the next few days, as the storm raged on, a tentative connection formed. She spoke of the city, of art and music, things Elias had renounced decades ago. He, in turn, found himself recounting stories of shipwrecks and strange, bioluminescent creatures that danced in the abyssal depths. For a fleeting moment, the ghost of a smile touched his weathered lips. But on the third morning, while fetching water from a hidden cove, Elias stumbled upon a sight that froze the blood in his veins. There, nestled among the rocks, was the wreckage of a carriage. And beside it, half-buried in the sand, was a woman’s glove, its fabric embroidered with a distinctive crest—a crest he recognized all too well. It was the same crest that adorned the signet ring on the finger of the man who had, thirty years prior, betrayed him, stolen his inheritance, and driven him into this self-imposed exile. 注意： 1. 续写词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Elias returned to the lighthouse, the glove concealed in his pocket, his mind a tempest of conflicting emotions. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As Clara prepared to leave, she turned to Elias, her eyes holding a question that demanded an answer. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Oh, no, the ground is shaking.

I hope that some of you will decide to take up nursing in the future because this is a fantastic job. First of all, i'll tell you a little bit about how I got started. I had no idea what I wanted to do until I was about fourteen. When I was listening to a family conversation, my cousin was talking to my dad and telling him all about how much he enjoyed her work. SHE was a nurse in a busy hospital, and I thought, yeah, that's exactly what i'd like to do when I told my teachers that's what I decided. They were very encouraging. But they did say that although I had always got good Marks in english and biology, i'd have to get a little Better at math or I wouldn't be able to do the job well, I must say IT wasn't easy being a student nurse. IT involved lots of late nights staying up to do my course work, but i'd known IT would be like that. Anyway, I think I have one of the best jobs in the world. My sister is an account, and although he earns far more than I do, I think my job is much more . rewarding.

I had no idea what I wanted to do until I was about fourteen when I was listening to a family conversation, my cousin was talking to my dad and telling him all about how much he enjoyed her work. SHE was a nurse in a busy hospital, and I thought, yeah, that's exactly what i'd like to do when I told my teachers, that's what I decided. They were very encouraging, but they did say that although I had always got good Marks in english and biology, i'd have to get a little Better at math or I wouldn't be able to do the job well, I must say, doesn't easy being a student nurse IT involved lots of late nights staying up to do my course work, but I don't known IT would be like that. Anyway, I think I have one of the best jobs in the world. My sister is an account, and although he earns far more than I do, I think my job is much more rewarding. 听力部分到此结束。
