W: Wow, technology is evolving so quickly, but I’ve read concerns about these chatbots from some educators. Since bots can provide great an essay in no time.
M: It’s definitely a matter of concern. Students could easily get pre made answers in an age of rapid technological advance, but when ChatGPT was integrated into Bing, Microsoft’s CEO Satya Nadella commented it’s a new day in search. As Google mentioned, AI can help deepen our understanding and efficiently change information into useful knowledge. It is not to replace us, but to make information more accessible.
W: I hope these advancements are for the better.
M: It’s an ever-changing landscape. We just need to adapt and make the most of these innovations.

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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Caves, made by nature or by people, can be found all over the world. Some of them are special because of their history or the stories behind them. Here are three famous examples.
Mogao Caves
The Mogao Caves are near Dunhuang on the old Silk Road. They were built in the 4th century. The caves were a shelter for travelers and gave monks a quiet place to meditate (冥想). Artists painted colorful pictures on the walls, showing both religious and daily life scenes. In 1907, a Daoist named Wang Yuanlu showed a British researcher a small “library cave” with more than 50,000 documents in multiple languages.
Grotto of Massabielle
This small cave in Lourdes, France, became famous in 1858. A 14-year-old girl named Bernadette said she saw a goddess in her dreams. She guided Bernadette to dig a small hole there, and a spring of water came out. People believed it could cure the sick. Later, a statue of the goddess was placed in the cave, and many visitors came flooding every year to pray for good health. A film about her life, The Song of Bernadette, became an international success, earning actress Jennifer Jones an Oscar.
Lascaux Cave
In 1940, four boys in France found a cave when their dog ran inside. On the walls, they saw hundreds of paintings and engravings, mostly of animals, such as bulls and horses. Experts believe the drawings were part of religious life, not just for decoration. Too many visitors damaged the paintings, so the cave was closed in 1963. A copy of it, called Lascaux II, was built and opened to visitors in 1983, and it remains popular now.
21. What were the Mogao Caves used for?
A. Goods trade. B. Art and research. C. Language study. D. Rest and meditation.
22. What can we learn about the Grotto of Massabelle?
A. It was built by Bernadette’s family. B. It was famous for its healing spring.
C. It was found by travelers accidentally. D. It was filled with animal paintings inside.
23. Why was the Lascaux Cave closed in 1963?
A. Its decorations needed updating. B. It was reserved for religious use.
C. Too many visitors harmed the art. D. A copy of it became more popular.
【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了世界上三个著名洞穴(莫高窟、马萨贝尔洞穴、拉斯科洞窟)的地理位置、历史背景及独特之处。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Mogao Caves部分中的“The caves were a shelter for travelers and gave monks a quiet place to meditate (冥想).()”可知,莫高窟是旅行者的休憩之所,也为僧侣提供了冥想的安静空间,即用于休息和冥想。故选D。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Grotto of Massabielle部分中的“She guided Bernadette to dig a small hole there, and a spring of water came out. People believed it could cure the sick. Later, a statue of the goddess was placed in the cave, and many visitors came flooding every year to pray for good health.(她指引Bernadette在洞穴里挖了一个小洞,一股泉水随即涌出。人们相信这泉水能治愈疾病。后来,洞穴中安放了一尊女神雕像,每年都有大批游客纷至沓来,祈求身体健康。)”可知,马萨贝尔洞穴因涌出的泉水被认为能治愈疾病而闻名,即它以具有治疗功效的泉水著称。故选B。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章Lascaux Cave部分中的“Too many visitors damaged the paintings, so the cave was closed in 1963.(由于游客过多导致壁画受损,该洞窟于1963年关闭。)”可知,由于过多游客导致洞窟内的绘画受损,所以拉斯科洞窟在1963年关闭。故选C。
B
Callie Clemens was close to falling asleep when an emergency message on the Facebook page she runs caught her eye. A tiny black dog had been seen crossing a road. Whimpers (呜咽声) had been heard from inside a nearby storm drain (下水道), so there was likely another dog — maybe more than one — caught there.
Clemens got out of bed and drove to the scene. Once there, she took a flashlight, pulled a metal grate (格栅) off the drain and climbed down. After lowering herself down the drain, Clemens went through about 10 feet of a narrow tunnel (管道) before reaching an area where she could search.
She pointed her flashlight at the dark place and saw two sets of eyes. Then the dogs ran off. Around midnight, volunteers arrived and joined Clemens. They worked until 3 a.m. trying to track the dogs. Although they were not able to find the two dogs that Clemens had seen, they did find a female black dog outside. There were at least two more caught below.
Clemens was not about to give up. She went home for a few hours of sleep and then back to the scene, joined by several volunteers. They finally found a tiny white dog. That left one dog underground. Clemens climbed down the storm drain several more times. But the fact that she found an exit hole and had stopped hearing the dog’s whimpers made her confident that it had found its way out.
This was not Clemens’s first time to get into a storm drain. Clemens is known in the Houston area for her rescue (营救) efforts. Over the past nine years, she’s saved at least 100 animals. Clemens’s act doesn’t surprise Tena Lundquist Faust, who runs another Houston animal rescue nonprofit. “Once she becomes focused on a rescue situation, she is unstoppable,” says Faust. “She is really a rock star.”
24. How did people know there was likely another dog caught in the storm drain?
A. Its voice was heard by someone. B. It was seen crossing a road nearby.
C. Clemens saw its eyes in the tunnel. D. Volunteers saw it in the storm drain.
25. What did Clemens do after seeing the emergency message?
A. She called for volunteers. B. She drove to the scene.
C. She posted a response online. D. She went back to sleep.
26. Which of the following can best describe Clemens?
A. Wise. B. Confident. C. Graceful. D. Caring.
27. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To describe a rescue practice.
B. To introduce animal behavior,
C. To complain about poor drainage systems.
D. To stress the teamwork in rescue.
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. D 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Callie Clemens营救下水道里的狗的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第一段中“Whimpers (呜咽声) had been heard from inside a nearby storm drain (下水道), so there was likely another dog — maybe more than one — caught there. (附近的下水道里传来了呜咽声,所以很可能还有另一只狗——也许不止一只——被困在了那里。)”可知,人们听到附近的下水道里有呜咽声,所以判断可能还有一只或更多的狗被困在那里。故选A。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第二段中“Clemens got out of bed and drove to the scene. (Clemens从床上爬起来,开车赶到了现场。)”可知,Clemens开车赶到了现场。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,特别是根据最后一段中“Clemens is known in the Houston area for her rescue (营救) efforts. Over the past nine years, she’s saved at least 100 animals. (Clemens在休斯敦地区因她的营救行动而闻名。在过去的九年里,她至少救过100只动物。)”可知,Clemens是一个有爱心的人。故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是由第一段“Callie Clemens was close to falling asleep when an emergency message on the Facebook page she runs caught her eye. A tiny black dog had been seen crossing a road. Whimpers (呜咽声) had been heard from inside a nearby storm drain (下水道), so there was likely another dog — maybe more than one — caught there. (Callie Clemens快要睡着时,她在自己管理的脸书页面上看到了一条紧急消息。有人看到一只小黑狗在过马路。附近的下水道里传来了呜咽声,所以很可能还有另一只狗——也许不止一只——被困在了那里。)”和第二段“Clemens got out of bed and drove to the scene. Once there, she took a flashlight, pulled a metal grate (格栅) off the drain and climbed down. After lowering herself down the drain, Clemens went through about 10 feet of a narrow tunnel (管道) before reaching an area where she could search. (Clemens从床上爬起来,开车赶到了现场。到达后,她拿起手电筒,卸下了下水道口的金属格栅,然后爬了下去。顺着下水道往下爬后,克莱门斯穿过了一条大约10英尺长的狭窄管道,才到达一个可以搜寻的区域。)”可知,文章主要讲述了Clemens营救被困在下水道里的狗的过程,故文章的主要目的是描述一次营救行动。故选A。
C
Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow trousers and boots, zipping up his jacket, and finding his helmet and gloves. His brother Gabe paced the front hall. “Let’s go!”
The brothers walked to the park, the sleds (雪橇) bouncing against their snow pants. Swish, swish, swish. Simon could see the sledding hill ahead of them. To him, it looked more like a sledding mountain. It was so high that the park district had built wooden steps into the slope to help sledders climb back up. Kids were taking turns on sleds, screaming all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or terrified. Yet he knew which one he felt.
Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” he called to Simon. Simon stared up. He was both sweating and freezing, his stomach knotted like a pretzel. Should he turn back? But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing.
At the top his brother stopped and looked at Simon. “Do you want me to go down with you?” he asked. Knowing Gabe wanted to fly down the sledding hill without his little brother, Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”
“Good for you, Simon,” Gabe said.
Simon sat crossed-legged on the sled and gripped (紧握) the plastic handles on each side. His heart was doing leapfrogs. Gabe gave him a small nudge on his back. Suddenly, he was dashing down the hill like a wild penguin. The wind whooshed. The cold stung. He had the handles in a death grip when the sled swung around and sent him flying down the hill backward. BACKWARD! He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went. He couldn’t even scream. Was he going to crash? Why had he thought this was a good idea?
The ground leveled off, and Simon’s sled slowed and then came to a stop at last. He rolled out and lay on his back, breathing hard.
“Are you all right?” Gabe asked.
Simon sat up slowly and looked around.
“Simon, say something! Say something!” Gabe said.
Simon grinned, “Again?”
28. How did Simon feel before leaving for the park?
A. Excited and confident. B. Hesitant and unwilling.
C. Eager and amazed. D. Shocked and depressed.
29. Why did Simon decide to keep climbing the steps despite his fears?
A. Because Gabe was pushing him to do so.
B. Because he didn’t want to disappoint his brother.
C. Because other kids were waiting behind him.
D. Because the view from the top was too inviting.
30. What happened to Simon when he was sledding down the hill?
A. He lost control and flew backward.
B. He skillfully made a perfect turn.
C. He crashed into the ground and got injured.
D. He enjoyed a smooth ride down.
31. What can be inferred about Simon’s attitude at the end of the story?
A. He was regretful and didn’t want to sled again.
B. He was relieved and grateful to be safe.
C. He was eager to sled a second time at once.
D. He felt it unworthy to take the risk.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了西蒙和哥哥加布去公园滑雪橇的故事,西蒙起初害怕犹豫,但最终勇敢尝试,结束后还想再滑一次。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow trousers and boots, zipping up his jacket, and finding his helmet and gloves. His brother Gabe paced the front hall. ‘Let’s go!’(西蒙尽可能慢地穿上雪裤和靴子,拉上夹克的拉链,找到他的头盔和手套。他的哥哥加布在前厅里踱来踱去。‘我们走吧!’)”可知,西蒙磨蹭着穿装备,表现出他的犹豫,不太愿意去公园。由此可推断出,西蒙在去公园之前是犹豫和不情愿的。故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing.(但他身后台阶上排着队的孩子们意味着他必须继续往上爬)”可知,西蒙决定继续爬台阶是因为其他孩子在他后面等着。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段中“He had the handles in a death grip when the sled swung around and sent him flying down the hill backward. BACKWARD! He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went.(他死命攥着雪橇把手,突然一个急转弯,整个人竟倒栽着飞冲下山!倒栽着啊!根本刹不住。速度越来越快,风在耳边呼啸)”可知,西蒙在滑雪橇下山时失去控制,倒着向后冲了下去。故选A项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Simon grinned, ‘Again?’(西蒙咧嘴一笑,‘再来一次?’)”可知,西蒙还想再滑一次,由此可推断出,他在故事结尾渴望立刻再滑一次雪橇。故选C项。
D
The needs of plus size consumers have long been the elephant in the room of the fashion industry until body positivity and fat acceptance movements promoted the slogan (口号) that large-bodied people are not those who are left behind. This size-inclusive (尺码包容) trend has become so popular that it is influencing mainstream culture. As a result, fashion brands have finally decided to extend their size ranges. In 2022, the plus-size market grew twice as fast as the standard size market in both North America and the UK.
Yet, many consumers say fashion brands broadening their ranges are not truly inclusive. “Inclusive sizing means that all bodies are included in fashion, not just the ones who fit in standard sizes,” says Marie Southard Ospina, a UK-based journalist who covers body-image issues. “However, what many designers do right now is pick a number that they think is big enough to include plus sizes and stop. This is even more disrespectful.”
Researchers also criticize that some brands are just taking advantage of the trend. “Brands that used to promote so-called perfect bodies in their advertisements are now trying to get in on the trend by adding a few sizes. It doesn’t feel like they really care about plus-size people,” says Tom Burgess, analyst in fashion industry. “If brands cared about large-bodied consumers, then it wouldn’t have taken until now to acknowledge that they exist,” he says. “It gives the impression that companies are just trying to gain a share of the market without a real commitment to the community.”
The fashion industry must go beyond merely producing clothing in a range of sizes if they hope to succeed with a body -diverse world. The whole industry has to connect on a personal level with consumers. That involves showing shoppers that they are seen, understood and important to brands. “Consumers care about values, and so they want to buy from brands that reflect the values they believe in. Everyone should enjoy the same range of fashion options,” says Ludovica Cesareo, professor of marketing at the College of Business in the US.
32. What do the underlined words “the elephant in the room” mean in the first paragraph?
A. The hot issue that is valued.
B. The obvious truth that is ignored.
C. The important principle that is recognized.
D. The common phenomenon that is criticized.
33. Why do consumers say fashion brands are not truly inclusive?
A. They pick sizes randomly. B. They offer limited plus sizes.
C. They treat designers disrespectfully. D. They haven’t broadened standard sizes.
34. For what do researchers mainly criticize some brands?
A. Their designs. B. Their quality.
C. Their motivations. D. Their advertisements.
35. What does the last paragraph imply?
A. Buyers may deserve fashion that fits their figure.
B. Consumers prefer brands with personalized values.
C. Brands should catch up with the size-inclusive trend.
D. A good brand image is critical in the fashion industry.
【答案】32. B 33. B 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了很多品牌推出了加码衣服,却只是为了迎合尺码包容这一趋势,而并非真正的满足客户的需要。品牌如果真的想要取得成功,就需要关心消费者的价值观。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章划线短语the elephant in the room后的内容“until body positivity and fat acceptance movements promoted the slogan (口号) that large-bodied people are not those who are left behind.(直到身体积极性和脂肪接受运动推动了这一口号,身材魁梧的人并应该被抛在后面。)”可知,新的口号的是身材魁梧的人并应该被抛诸脑后,故这些人原来一直是被忽视的,且根据划线词the elephant(大象)可知,此处划线词意思与B项“被忽视的明显的事实”意思相近,故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段““Inclusive sizing means that all bodies are included in fashion, not just the ones who fit in standard sizes,” says Marie Southard Ospina, a UK-based journalist who covers body-image issues. “However, what many designers do right now is pick a number that they think is big enough to include plus sizes and stop. This is even more disrespectful.”(报道身体形象问题的英国记者Marie Southard Ospina说道:“包容性的尺码意味着所有的身体都包含在时尚内,而不是仅仅符合那些标准尺码的身体。然而,许多设计师现在所做的仅仅是选择一个他们认为足够大的尺寸。这是极其不尊重人的”。)”可知,消费者认为世上品牌并不是真正的包容性,是因为他们只提供那些符合标准尺码的身体,而不适合所有的身体,故其提供的大码是有限的,故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段““If brands cared about large-bodied consumers, then it wouldn’t have taken until now to acknowledge that they exist,” he says. “It gives the impression that companies are just trying to gain a share of the market without a real commitment to the community.”(他说道:“如果品牌关心大码消费者,那么它就不会直到现在才承认他们的存在。这给人的印象就是,公司只是想要在市场上占有一席之地,而不是真正的对社区做出承诺。”)”可知,研究者批评一些品牌是因为一些品牌并不是真正地关心大码消费者,而只是为了在市场上占有一定的位置,迎合趋势而已,故是因为品牌的动机而批评他们,故选C。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段““Consumers care about values, and so they want to buy from brands that reflect the values they believe in. Everyone should enjoy the same range of fashion options,” says Ludovica Cesareo, professor of marketing at the College of Business in the US.(美国商学院市场营销教授Ludovica Cesareo说道:“消费者关心价值,因此他们想要从反映他们所信仰的价值观的品牌那里购买东西。每个人都应该享受同样的时尚选择”。)”可推知,消费者在乎自己的价值观是否在品牌那里体现出来,因此他们更喜欢能体现自己价值观的品牌,故选B。

The best ways to improve creative thinking
When it comes to creativity, one of our biggest concerns is usually how we can be more creative, or how to come up with better ideas. I’ve gathered some of the most practical studies to help improve creativity. All of these studies are useful for everyday creativity. ____36____
Embrace something absurd (荒谬的). ____37____ Absurd art makes the brain work extra hard for a moment when the mind tries to work out exactly what it is looking at or reading, which contributes to innovation to a large extent. I like reading interesting short stories like The Last Question when I am looking for some inspiration.
Create when emotions run high. While many assume happiness is the key to creativity, recent research reached an important conclusion: ____38____ I’m not suggesting you put yourself in a bad mood to create something, but next time you find yourself in a strong emotional state, try sitting down and focus that energy on creating something.
____39____ Some research suggests that exercise can actually improve creative thinking as well, due to its ability to get the heart pumping and put people in a positive mood. ____40____ In both cases, what matters isn’t the specific activity, but the positive emotional shift it creates. If you’re stuck in a creative job and want to take a break, try exercise while your brain is subconsciously at work. It may help to speed up your “Aha!” moment.
A. Fuel creativity through workouts.
B. Come up with more creative ideas.
C. The more intense the emotion, the greater the creativity.
D. Try a few out for yourself and see which ones work best for you.
E. We are in two very different states of mind when we are trying to create something.

G. It’s similar to how other research shows that thinking about love can produce more creative thoughts.
【答案】36. D 37. F 38. C 39. A 40. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章中介绍了帮助提升创造力的几种方法。
【36题详解】
根据上文“I’ve gathered some of the most practical studies to help improve creativity. All of these studies are useful for everyday creativity.(我收集了一些最实用的研究成果,以帮助提升创造力。这些研究对日常创造力的提升都十分有益)”可知,作者要介绍一些帮助提升创造力的研究成果。由此可知,D. Try a few out for yourself and see which ones work best for you.(自己尝试一下其中的一些方法,看看哪些对你最有效)符合语境,建议读者尝试一下,从中选择适合自己的。故选D项。
【37题详解】
根据本段首句“Embrace something absurd (荒谬的).(接受一些荒诞的事物)”及下文“Absurd art makes the brain work extra hard for a moment when the mind tries to work out exactly what it is looking at or reading, which contributes to innovation to a large extent.(荒诞的艺术能让大脑在瞬间付出额外的努力,因为此时大脑需要确切地理解所看到或所读的内容,这在很大程度上促进了创新)”可知,本段指出大脑接受一些看似荒诞的事物可以提升创新力。由此可知,F. Research suggests reading or experiencing such things can help improve creative thinking.(研究表明,阅读或体验这类事物有助于提高创造性思维)符合语境,such things对应前文的“something absurd”。故选F项。
【38题详解】
根据本段首句“Create when emotions run high.(在情绪高涨时进行创作)”及下文“I’m not suggesting you put yourself in a bad mood to create something, but next time you find yourself in a strong emotional state, try sitting down and focus that energy on creating something.(我并不是建议你故意让自己处于不良情绪中来创作,但下次你发现自己处于强烈的情绪状态时,试着坐下来,将这种能量集中到创作上)”可知,本段中作者建议在情绪高涨状态下创作,这样有可能创作出好作品。由此可知,C. The more intense the emotion, the greater the creativity.(情绪越强烈,创造力就越大)符合语境,对应空前的“an important conclusion”。故选C项。
【39题详解】
该空为段首句应该是一个和下文有关的新的建议。根据下文“Some research suggests that exercise can actually improve creative thinking as well, due to its ability to get the heart pumping and put people in a positive mood.(一些研究表明,运动实际上也能提升创造性思维,这是因为运动能够促使心脏跳动、让人心情愉悦)”可知,本段在讲身体锻炼会提升创造力。由此可知,A. Fuel creativity through workouts.(通过锻炼来激发创造力)符合语境。故选A项。
【40题详解】
根据下文“In both cases, what matters isn’t the specific activity, but the positive emotional shift it creates.(在这两种情况下,关键不在于具体的活动本身,而在于它所引发的积极情绪变化)”可知,作者在建议锻炼身体之后此处又例举了一种可以让人心情愉悦从而激发创造力的做法。由此可知,G. It’s similar to how other research shows that thinking about love can produce more creative thoughts.(这与另一些研究的结果类似,即思考爱能够激发更多的创造性想法)符合语境,锻炼和思考爱这两种情况都能使人产生积极情绪。故选G项。

【导语】这是一篇说明文,主要介绍了位于福建永泰县的竹林古镇。
【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这座位于福建永泰县的古镇可追溯至宋朝,曾是重要的贸易驿站。空处作非谓语动词,this ancient town与date之间是主动关系,用现在分词作后置定语,date back to为固定搭配,意为“追溯到”。故填dating。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:其设计精巧的水道和石桥是古代工程师智慧的证明。stand as为固定搭配,意为“作为……而存在;是……的证明”,符合语境。故填as。
【58题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:建于元代的天后宫具有极高的历史和文化意义。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是The Tianhou Temple,指物,在从句中作主语,用关系代词which。故填which。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:建于元代的天后宫具有极高的历史和文化意义。此处作动词holds的宾语,且前面有形容词historical and cultural修饰,需用名词形式,significant的名词是significance,为不可数名词。故填significance。
【60题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:它吸引了许多游客来了解海洋文化和民间信仰。空处作非谓语动词,attract sb to do sth吸引某人做某事。故填to learn。
【61题详解】
考查连词。句意:蜿蜒的小巷引导游客经过手工艺品商店和小庭院,商贩们在那里售卖手工制品。craft shops和small courtyards为并列的名词短语,表并列关系,用连词and连接。故填and。
【62题详解】
考查不定冠词。句意:一年一度的竹文化节是一项令人兴奋的活动,活动包含民间舞蹈和当地美食集市。此处表示“一项令人兴奋的活动”,表泛指,exciting以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an。故填an。
【63题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:游客可以品尝按传统配方制作的“竹叶饭”。空处作非谓语动词,bamboo leaf rice与prepare之间是被动关系,用过去分词作后置定语。故填prepared。
【64题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:到目前为止,竹林古镇已成为必打卡景点,为游客提供集历史、工艺和自然风光于一体的游览体验。根据时间状语So far可知,句子用现在完成时;主语the Ancient Town of Bamboo Grove为单数,助动词用has,become的过去分词是become。故填has become。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意:到目前为止,竹林古镇已成为必打卡景点,为游客提供集历史、工艺和自然风光于一体的游览体验。此处修饰名词scenery,需用形容词形式,nature的形容词是natural(自然的)。故填natural。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给信息续写成一篇完整的短文。
Tina was a high school girl who loved comparing herself with others. She always cared about the latest clothes, expensive phones, and designer bags. Whenever someone showed off a new item, she’d feel jealous and immediately turn to her parents for something better. Having no idea how to deal with it, her parents had no choice but to satisfy her. With what she wanted on, peers would follow her, flattering her from head to toe. Tina smiled, with a barely perceived sense of emptiness.
At the beginning of the fall semester, Tina noticed a new face from another class. It’s Rita, who just transferred from a neighboring school. The girl was always alone, with simple clothes and an old schoolbag, but a smile hovered on her lips wherever she went. After school, Rita never got involved in classmates’ discussions about brands or luxuries. Instead, she herself spent most of her time in the classroom, studying or helping classmates with mathematics problems, or in the school library, doing voluntary jobs. One month later, Rita got straight As in a series of comprehensive tests and was awarded “the most popular student” in the school assembly. Her shining smile was brighter than ever, and young boys and girls began to gather around her.
One afternoon, Tina walked up to Rita, who was sitting under a tree and reading a book. “Hi, Tina. I’m Tina. What makes you so happy every day? You didn’t even have any friends.” Tina poured out her puzzles. Rita looked up with a familiar smile, “I feel every single day fruitful. I feel happy just because I’m on the way of being the one I want to be. That’s the secret.” Something hit Tina at that very moment. She turned back and headed home, without saying anything, not even goodbye. That night, Tina lay in bed and stared at the ceiling, replaying Rita’s words in her mind and lost in deep thought.
注意:
1. 续写词数总计为100词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, Tina decided to make a change.
______________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Besides self-satisfaction, Tina received plenty of praise and compliments from others.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The next day, Tina decided to make a change. She stopped asking her parents for expensive things that she actually didn’t need. She even gave away some of her unused designer bags to charity. After class, she no longer dived into discussions as she used to. Instead, she devoted herself to academic subjects in the classroom, sometimes helping others who got stuck. What’s more, she joined Rita, volunteering in the school library, sorting books and assisting younger students. Every small act made her feel a sense of fulfillment she had never experienced before.
Besides self-satisfaction, Tina received plenty of praise and compliments from others. Teachers and schoolmates admired her for being so kind and hard-working, let alone her greatly improved grades. Her parents were not only proud of her academic performance, but were also surprised to see her getting rid of unrealistic comparisons. Rita smiled sincerely at her, with her thumb up. Tina was overflowing with happiness, hardly containing her excitement. It was then that she truly understood that real happiness didn’t lie in what could be easily got from owning better items, but in what was earned with great efforts and what was done for others.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,本文以人物成长为线索展开,讲述了原本爱慕虚荣、热衷攀比的女孩Tina,在看到转学生Rita不追求物质、专注学习与助人却收获真正快乐与认可后,内心受到触动,决心做出改变。

②由第二段首句内容“除了内心的满足感之外,蒂娜还得到了许多来自他人的赞扬和赞美。”可知,第二段可描写老师、同学、父母及Rita对她的认可,以及Tina的感悟。

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Caves, made by nature or by people, can be found all over the world. Some of them are special because of their history or the stories behind them. Here are three famous examples.
Mogao Caves
The Mogao Caves are near Dunhuang on the old Silk Road. They were built in the 4th century. The caves were a shelter for travelers and gave monks a quiet place to meditate (冥想). Artists painted colorful pictures on the walls, showing both religious and daily life scenes. In 1907, a Daoist named Wang Yuanlu showed a British researcher a small “library cave” with more than 50,000 documents in multiple languages.
Grotto of Massabielle
This small cave in Lourdes, France, became famous in 1858. A 14-year-old girl named Bernadette said she saw a goddess in her dreams. She guided Bernadette to dig a small hole there, and a spring of water came out. People believed it could cure the sick. Later, a statue of the goddess was placed in the cave, and many visitors came flooding every year to pray for good health. A film about her life, The Song of Bernadette, became an international success, earning actress Jennifer Jones an Oscar.
Lascaux Cave
In 1940, four boys in France found a cave when their dog ran inside. On the walls, they saw hundreds of paintings and engravings, mostly of animals, such as bulls and horses. Experts believe the drawings were part of religious life, not just for decoration. Too many visitors damaged the paintings, so the cave was closed in 1963. A copy of it, called Lascaux II, was built and opened to visitors in 1983, and it remains popular now.
21. What were the Mogao Caves used for?
A. Goods trade. B. Art and research. C. Language study. D. Rest and meditation.
22. What can we learn about the Grotto of Massabelle?
A. It was built by Bernadette’s family. B. It was famous for its healing spring.
C. It was found by travelers accidentally. D. It was filled with animal paintings inside.
23. Why was the Lascaux Cave closed in 1963?
A. Its decorations needed updating. B. It was reserved for religious use.
C. Too many visitors harmed the art. D. A copy of it became more popular.
B
Callie Clemens was close to falling asleep when an emergency message on the Facebook page she runs caught her eye. A tiny black dog had been seen crossing a road. Whimpers (呜咽声) had been heard from inside a nearby storm drain (下水道), so there was likely another dog — maybe more than one — caught there.
Clemens got out of bed and drove to the scene. Once there, she took a flashlight, pulled a metal grate (格栅) off the drain and climbed down. After lowering herself down the drain, Clemens went through about 10 feet of a narrow tunnel (管道) before reaching an area where she could search.
She pointed her flashlight at the dark place and saw two sets of eyes. Then the dogs ran off. Around midnight, volunteers arrived and joined Clemens. They worked until 3 a.m. trying to track the dogs. Although they were not able to find the two dogs that Clemens had seen, they did find a female black dog outside. There were at least two more caught below.
Clemens was not about to give up. She went home for a few hours of sleep and then back to the scene, joined by several volunteers. They finally found a tiny white dog. That left one dog underground. Clemens climbed down the storm drain several more times. But the fact that she found an exit hole and had stopped hearing the dog’s whimpers made her confident that it had found its way out.
This was not Clemens’s first time to get into a storm drain. Clemens is known in the Houston area for her rescue (营救) efforts. Over the past nine years, she’s saved at least 100 animals. Clemens’s act doesn’t surprise Tena Lundquist Faust, who runs another Houston animal rescue nonprofit. “Once she becomes focused on a rescue situation, she is unstoppable,” says Faust. “She is really a rock star.”
24. How did people know there was likely another dog caught in the storm drain?
A. Its voice was heard by someone. B. It was seen crossing a road nearby.
C. Clemens saw its eyes in the tunnel. D. Volunteers saw it in the storm drain.
25. What did Clemens do after seeing the emergency message?
A. She called for volunteers. B. She drove to the scene.
C. She posted a response online. D. She went back to sleep.
26. Which of the following can best describe Clemens?
A. Wise. B. Confident. C. Graceful. D. Caring.
27. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To describe a rescue practice.
B. To introduce animal behavior,
C. To complain about poor drainage systems.
D. To stress the teamwork in rescue.
C
Simon took as much time as he could pulling on his snow trousers and boots, zipping up his jacket, and finding his helmet and gloves. His brother Gabe paced the front hall. “Let’s go!”
The brothers walked to the park, the sleds (雪橇) bouncing against their snow pants. Swish, swish, swish. Simon could see the sledding hill ahead of them. To him, it looked more like a sledding mountain. It was so high that the park district had built wooden steps into the slope to help sledders climb back up. Kids were taking turns on sleds, screaming all the way down. Simon couldn’t tell if their cries meant they were happy or terrified. Yet he knew which one he felt.
Gabe was taking the steps two at a time. “Come on!” he called to Simon. Simon stared up. He was both sweating and freezing, his stomach knotted like a pretzel. Should he turn back? But the line of kids on the steps behind him meant he had to keep climbing.
At the top his brother stopped and looked at Simon. “Do you want me to go down with you?” he asked. Knowing Gabe wanted to fly down the sledding hill without his little brother, Simon took a deep breath. “I’m going. By myself.”
“Good for you, Simon,” Gabe said.
Simon sat crossed-legged on the sled and gripped (紧握) the plastic handles on each side. His heart was doing leapfrogs. Gabe gave him a small nudge on his back. Suddenly, he was dashing down the hill like a wild penguin. The wind whooshed. The cold stung. He had the handles in a death grip when the sled swung around and sent him flying down the hill backward. BACKWARD! He couldn’t stop. Faster and faster he went. He couldn’t even scream. Was he going to crash? Why had he thought this was a good idea?
The ground leveled off, and Simon’s sled slowed and then came to a stop at last. He rolled out and lay on his back, breathing hard.
“Are you all right?” Gabe asked.
Simon sat up slowly and looked around.
“Simon, say something! Say something!” Gabe said.
Simon grinned, “Again?”
28. How did Simon feel before leaving for the park?
A. Excited and confident. B. Hesitant and unwilling.
C. Eager and amazed. D. Shocked and depressed.
29. Why did Simon decide to keep climbing the steps despite his fears?
A. Because Gabe was pushing him to do so.
B. Because he didn’t want to disappoint his brother.
C. Because other kids were waiting behind him.
D. Because the view from the top was too inviting.
30. What happened to Simon when he was sledding down the hill?
A. He lost control and flew backward.
B. He skillfully made a perfect turn.
C. He crashed into the ground and got injured.
D. He enjoyed a smooth ride down.
31. What can be inferred about Simon’s attitude at the end of the story?
A. He was regretful and didn’t want to sled again.
B. He was relieved and grateful to be safe.
C. He was eager to sled a second time at once.
D. He felt it unworthy to take the risk.
D
The needs of plus size consumers have long been the elephant in the room of the fashion industry until body positivity and fat acceptance movements promoted the slogan (口号) that large-bodied people are not those who are left behind. This size-inclusive (尺码包容) trend has become so popular that it is influencing mainstream culture. As a result, fashion brands have finally decided to extend their size ranges. In 2022, the plus-size market grew twice as fast as the standard size market in both North America and the UK.
Yet, many consumers say fashion brands broadening their ranges are not truly inclusive. “Inclusive sizing means that all bodies are included in fashion, not just the ones who fit in standard sizes,” says Marie Southard Ospina, a UK-based journalist who covers body-image issues. “However, what many designers do right now is pick a number that they think is big enough to include plus sizes and stop. This is even more disrespectful.”
Researchers also criticize that some brands are just taking advantage of the trend. “Brands that used to promote so-called perfect bodies in their advertisements are now trying to get in on the trend by adding a few sizes. It doesn’t feel like they really care about plus-size people,” says Tom Burgess, analyst in fashion industry. “If brands cared about large-bodied consumers, then it wouldn’t have taken until now to acknowledge that they exist,” he says. “It gives the impression that companies are just trying to gain a share of the market without a real commitment to the community.”
The fashion industry must go beyond merely producing clothing in a range of sizes if they hope to succeed with a body -diverse world. The whole industry has to connect on a personal level with consumers. That involves showing shoppers that they are seen, understood and important to brands. “Consumers care about values, and so they want to buy from brands that reflect the values they believe in. Everyone should enjoy the same range of fashion options,” says Ludovica Cesareo, professor of marketing at the College of Business in the US.
32. What do the underlined words “the elephant in the room” mean in the first paragraph?
A. The hot issue that is valued.
B. The obvious truth that is ignored.
C. The important principle that is recognized.
D. The common phenomenon that is criticized.
33. Why do consumers say fashion brands are not truly inclusive?
A. They pick sizes randomly. B. They offer limited plus sizes.
C. They treat designers disrespectfully. D. They haven’t broadened standard sizes.
34. For what do researchers mainly criticize some brands?
A. Their designs. B. Their quality.
C. Their motivations. D. Their advertisements.
35. What does the last paragraph imply?
A. Buyers may deserve fashion that fits their figure.
B. Consumers prefer brands with personalized values.
C. Brands should catch up with the size-inclusive trend.
D. A good brand image is critical in the fashion industry.

The best ways to improve creative thinking
When it comes to creativity, one of our biggest concerns is usually how we can be more creative, or how to come up with better ideas. I’ve gathered some of the most practical studies to help improve creativity. All of these studies are useful for everyday creativity. ____36____
Embrace something absurd (荒谬的). ____37____ Absurd art makes the brain work extra hard for a moment when the mind tries to work out exactly what it is looking at or reading, which contributes to innovation to a large extent. I like reading interesting short stories like The Last Question when I am looking for some inspiration.
Create when emotions run high. While many assume happiness is the key to creativity, recent research reached an important conclusion: ____38____ I’m not suggesting you put yourself in a bad mood to create something, but next time you find yourself in a strong emotional state, try sitting down and focus that energy on creating something.
____39____ Some research suggests that exercise can actually improve creative thinking as well, due to its ability to get the heart pumping and put people in a positive mood. ____40____ In both cases, what matters isn’t the specific activity, but the positive emotional shift it creates. If you’re stuck in a creative job and want to take a break, try exercise while your brain is subconsciously at work. It may help to speed up your “Aha!” moment.
A. Fuel creativity through workouts.
B. Come up with more creative ideas.
C. The more intense the emotion, the greater the creativity.
D. Try a few out for yourself and see which ones work best for you.
E. We are in two very different states of mind when we are trying to create something.
F. Research suggests reading or experiencing such things can help improve creative thinking.
G. It’s similar to how other research shows that thinking about love can produce more creative thoughts.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给信息续写成一篇完整的短文。
Tina was a high school girl who loved comparing herself with others. She always cared about the latest clothes, expensive phones, and designer bags. Whenever someone showed off a new item, she’d feel jealous and immediately turn to her parents for something better. Having no idea how to deal with it, her parents had no choice but to satisfy her. With what she wanted on, peers would follow her, flattering her from head to toe. Tina smiled, with a barely perceived sense of emptiness.
At the beginning of the fall semester, Tina noticed a new face from another class. It’s Rita, who just transferred from a neighboring school. The girl was always alone, with simple clothes and an old schoolbag, but a smile hovered on her lips wherever she went. After school, Rita never got involved in classmates’ discussions about brands or luxuries. Instead, she herself spent most of her time in the classroom, studying or helping classmates with mathematics problems, or in the school library, doing voluntary jobs. One month later, Rita got straight As in a series of comprehensive tests and was awarded “the most popular student” in the school assembly. Her shining smile was brighter than ever, and young boys and girls began to gather around her.
One afternoon, Tina walked up to Rita, who was sitting under a tree and reading a book. “Hi, Tina. I’m Tina. What makes you so happy every day? You didn’t even have any friends.” Tina poured out her puzzles. Rita looked up with a familiar smile, “I feel every single day fruitful. I feel happy just because I’m on the way of being the one I want to be. That’s the secret.” Something hit Tina at that very moment. She turned back and headed home, without saying anything, not even goodbye. That night, Tina lay in bed and stared at the ceiling, replaying Rita’s words in her mind and lost in deep thought.
注意:
1. 续写词数总计为100词左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
The next day, Tina decided to make a change.
______________________________________________________________________________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Besides self-satisfaction, Tina received plenty of praise and compliments from others.
