After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner (空调) and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can find a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company. Though the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan since it was founded.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
4. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Using large areas together.
B. Offering free courses.
C. Having some more expensive equipment (设备).
D. Holding one person at a time.
5. What do people have to do if they want to use the shared gym room?
A. Pay 100 yuan first.
B. Put down curtains to keep private.
C. Have a shower before exercise.
D. Book a room before using it.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards China’s sharing economy?
A. Positive. B. Unclear. C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms.
B. To praise a technology company.
C. To introduce shared gym rooms.
D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了北京出现的共享健身房的特点、使用方法、收费标准以及共享经济的发展前景。
【4题详解】
根据第二段“the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use”可知,共享健身房是供一人使用的小型独立房间,而普通健身房是多人共享的大空间。
【5题详解】
根据第四段“users can find a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then scan a QR code for use”可知,使用前需通过APP预约。
【6题详解】
根据最后一段“the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40%...expected to make a great contribution”可知,作者引用数据表明共享经济发展前景良好,态度是积极的。

Founded by philanthropist (慈善家)and Fuyao Group chairman Cao Dewang, a new kind of university is rising in Fujian Province—Fuyao University of Science and Technology (FUST). This non-profit (非营利的) private university aims to solve a big problem: China needs more top engineers in fields like artificial intelligence and advanced (先进的) industries.
FUST is different from traditional universities. It follows a “small-size, high-quality” model, accepting only a few hundred students each year to ensure personalized (个性化) education. The courses pay much attention to interdisciplinary (跨学科) learning, including subjects like robotics, material science, and data engineering.
One of FUST’s key features is its 50-50 time split: students do not just study. Half of their time is spent in the classroom, and the other half on internships (实习), or research in real labs with industry partners. Besides,there are no traditional entrance exams for a master’s or a doctor’s degree. A student’s progress is based on his academic (学术的) performance and creativity.
As for teachers, the university invites Nobel Prize winners, top scientists, and global tech leaders as visiting professors. The president Wang Jianguo who works for FUST without any payment says, “In the future, FUST plans to establish joint research centers with universities in Germany and Japan, aiming to become a global center for developing industrial talent. “
8. What does FUST insist on its teaching approach (方式)?
A. Large class sizes for efficiency
B. Memorizing textbooks

9. What does the “50-50 time split” mean?
A. Half the students study abroad
B. Students spend equal time on theory and practice
C. Tuition is shared by family and government
D. Classes are held five days a week
10. How do students get higher degrees at FUST?
A. By taking national exams
B. By passing interviews with foreign professors
C. Based on their academic performance and creativity
D. By publishing papers in English

D
Mount Tai is one of the most famous mountains in China. Every year, millions of tourists visit it. But the mountain has steep and rocky paths. People can only climb up and down on these narrow (狭窄的) roads. For many years, workers called “porters” (搬运工) carried heavy things like food, water, and rubbish. They worked very hard because the paths were difficult.
In 2023, over 8.62 million tourists came to Mount Tai. This created a big problem:about 24,000 tons of rubbish every year! Cleaning and moving the rubbish is not easy. Cableways (索道) can help at the start and end of the mountain, but the middle part still needs workers. However, fewer people want to do this hard job now.
Now a new helper has come: a “smart porter” robot dog! This robot dog can carry heavy things on its back. It has four strong legs that move just like a real dog’s. There are cameras on its “head” that can “see” the way, and smart chips (芯片) inside help it think and decide. It walks on the rocky paths just like people. And it doesn’t get tired and can work all day. Now, porters can spend less time on heavy lifting and more time on other important things, like keeping an eye on the mountain’s environment.
Scientists believe these robot helpers are very important. “The smart robot dog doesn’t just carry rubbish. It helps make visiting special mountains like Tai safer,” says Dr. Lin Wei, who works on the project. “By using machines for the hardest work, we protect both workers and nature.” With this technology, Mount Tai can stay clean, letting many visitors enjoy it while protecting it for the future.
12. What does the underlined phrase “steep and rocky” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Big and clean.
B. Pleasant and clear.
C. Hard to climb and full of rocks.
D. Easy to walk on.
13. Why does the writer write Paragraph 2?
A. To ask tourists not to make too much rubbish
B. To compare different ways of cleaning the mountain.
C. To show the difficulties of solving the rubbish problem.
D. To say that porters should get more money for their work.
14. What are the advantages (优势) of the robot dog?
①It can stop tourists from littering.
②It can move on difficult mountain paths.
③It can carry heavy things without getting tired.
④It can make smart decisions with cameras and chips.
A. ②③④ B. ①②③ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
15. What can we infer (推断) from Dr. Lin Wei’s words?
A. The robot dogs are mainly used to bring fun to tourists on Mount Tai.
B. Mount Tai is the only mountain in China needing this technology
C. There will be no more human porters because we don’t need them anymore.
D. The robot solution could be used in other places with similar problems.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍泰山因旅游发展产生的垃圾处理困境,以及智能机器狗作为新型解决方案,在解决该困境、保护泰山环境和工作人员方面的作用与意义。
【12题详解】
第一段“But the mountain has steep and rocky paths. People can only climb up and down on these narrow roads…They worked very hard because the paths were difficult.”后文提到山路狭窄,搬运工扛重物工作非常辛苦,原因是路很难走,说明该短语是形容山路难行;“难攀爬且满是石头”符合“陡峭、多岩石、难走”的语义。
【13题详解】
第二段整段先提出“游客多→垃圾量大”的问题,再说明“索道作用有限,核心路段仍需人工”,最后补充“人工从业者减少”的现状,突出泰山垃圾处理的多重困难,目的是展示解决垃圾问题的难度。
【14题详解】
第三段“This robot dog can carry heavy things on its back…There are cameras on its ‘head’ that can ‘see’ the way, and smart chips inside help it think and decide. It walks on the rocky paths just like people.”说明机器狗能在难走的山路上行走、能扛重物且不会累、能借助摄像头和芯片做出明智判断,未提及能阻止游客乱扔垃圾。
【15题详解】
第四段“The smart robot dog doesn’t just carry rubbish. It helps make visiting special mountains like Tai safer…By using machines for the hardest work, we protect both workers and nature.”说明机器狗适用于像泰山一样的特殊山脉,这类山脉必然也存在“山路难走、人工处理垃圾/物资困难”的类似问题,由此可合理推断该技术能推广到其他同类地区。

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了作者小学时与同学发生争执,老师通过一个巧妙的实验让他明白:要真正理解他人的观点,必须站在对方的角度看问题。
【21题详解】
句意:我不记得当时是为了什么争执,但我从未忘记那天学到的一课。
上文提到作者与同学发生了激烈争执,下文说“但我从未忘记那天学到的教训”,前后形成对比——虽然不记得争执的原因,但教训印象深刻。remember(记得)符合语境。
【22题详解】
句意:老师决定给我们上一堂非常重要的课。
上文提到这件事发生在小学时期,地点在课堂上。下文用“She”指代这个人,且后文描述了她引导学生换位思考的教学方式,因此teacher(老师)符合语境。
【23题详解】
句意:她把我们俩叫到教室前面。
老师为了让两人看清物体,需要把他们带到讲台前。bring...up to...意为“把……领/带到……前面”,brought符合“老师叫学生到前面来”的语境。
【24题详解】
句意:让他站在她办公桌的一侧,我站在另一侧。
上文明确提到“on one side of her desk”,此处需要表示“桌子的另一侧”。the other表示两者中的另一个,符合“老师在一侧,两人分别站在另外两侧”的布局。
【25题详解】
句意:我可以清楚地看到它是黑色的。
下文作者坚信物体是黑色的,并认为同学说白色是错的,说明他从自己位置看得很清楚。clearly(清楚地)符合“自信判断颜色”的语境。
【26题详解】
句意:我无法相信他说物体是白色的,当它明明是黑色的!
作者认为物体明显是黑色的,无法理解同学为什么说是白色。when在此含有“而……却”的转折语气,引出矛盾的实际情况,符合语境。
【27题详解】
句意:我和同学之间又开始了另一场争论。
上文提到作者和同学之前已经有过一次争执(major argument),现在针对物体颜色再次产生分歧。argument(争论)与前文呼应,符合语境。
【28题详解】
句意:我们交换了位置。
老师让两人互换站立的位置,以便从对方的角度看物体。places(位置)符合“互换站立点”的语境。
【29题详解】
句意:这是一个两侧颜色不同的物体,从他那边看是白色的。
作者换到同学的位置后发现物体变成白色,说明物体两侧颜色不同。differently colored意为“颜色不同的”,符合“从不同角度看颜色不同”的语境。
【30题详解】
句意:你必须站在别人的立场上,通过他们的眼睛看问题,才能真正理解他们的观点。
全文主旨是老师通过实验教会作者换位思考。understand(理解)符合“站在对方角度去理解其观点”的主题。

VI. Reading Expression (本题 5 小题,每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
Physical exercise is good for our mind, body and spirit. Today, working out (锻炼) through online videos is becoming very popular. Since the Internet is widely used, it’s very easy for us to do so. That means we can work out anytime anywhere.
One of my friends, Lin Fei, followed short workout videos to do daily exercise. “With live programs, I feel like working out with my friends, which encourages me to hold on to the last minute, ” she said. Another friend of mine, Michael, told me, “I have a fear of working out at the gym (健身房) because I don’t like being watched by others. Working out at home makes working out much more enjoyable.”
With their examples, I decided to give it a try. When I told my plan to my elder sister, a P. E. teacher, she reminded me that workout videos could be helpful but might still carry some problems.
“Without being with someone in person, you will be less willing (愿意的) to work out at your best. Working out at the gym allows you to have advice in real time and get pushed harder,” my sister said to me. “Well, if you really want to have a try, first, choose proper programs or videos. That’s very important. And then ask your friends for advice. Their experiences can give you a good insight into what you can expect. Anyway, don’t be addicted (沉迷的) to it. You should try different ways to work out to be healthy.”
At her suggestions, I finally followed an online workout program. After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful. Compared with going to the gym, using online videos to work out is a much cheaper and time-saving choice. But it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or too busy to stick to it.
41. It is becoming ________ to ________ through online videos.
42. Michael is ________ to work out at the gym ________ he doesn’t like to be watched by others.
43. If you are with ________ in person, you won’t feel like ________ out to your best.
44. How did the writer feel about his first period of training?
____________________________________
45. Would you like to follow online videos to work out? Why or why not?
____________________________________
【答案】41. ①. popular ②. exercise
42. ①. afraid ②. because
43. ①. nobody ②. working
44. He felt it very practical and helpful.
45. Yes./Yes, I’d like to. Because it’s a cheaper and time-saving choice.或No, I wouldn’t like to. Because it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or busy to stick to it.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了通过在线视频进行锻炼变得流行,不同人对这种锻炼方式有不同看法及作者自身尝试后的感受。
【41题详解】
首段直接描述了这一现象 “Today, working out (锻炼) through online videos is becoming very popular.”,表明在线视频进行锻炼变得流行,“exercise”是“working out”的同义替换。
【42题详解】
第二段明确指出 “I have a fear of working out at the gym (健身房) because I don’t like being watched by others.”,这里表明Michael害怕在健身房锻炼是因为不喜欢被他人注视,“afraid”是“fear”的同义替换,所以答案是“Afraid”和 “because”,这是原文中的具体信息,直接提取。
【43题详解】
第三段提到 “Without being with someone in person, you will be less willing (愿意的) to work out to your best.”,意思是没有和某人在现场一起,你就不太愿意尽最大努力锻炼,所以答案是“nobody”和“working”,对原文信息进行了合理转化。
【44题详解】
此答案是对最后一段信息的直接提取。该段提到“After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful.”,答案几乎是原文引述。
【45题详解】
本题是开放性试题,答案不唯一,但观点需基于文中事实。结合文章内容,作者提到与去健身房相比,使用在线视频锻炼是更便宜和省时的选择,但有时也会因为太懒或太忙而难以坚持。

【答案】例文:
Nowadays, many people prefer ordering food online. However, opinions are divided on this.
Some people think it’s good to order food online. It is more convenient and faster than cooking at home, so we can save much time. What’s more, there are many kinds of take-away food which are delicious. Besides, ordering food online can reduce going out and avoid risks. However, other people hold a different opinion. They say some restaurants may have food safety problems. And using plastic packages too much is bad for our environment and health. In addition, this kind of eating habit is unhealthy because take-away food is too sweet or too salty.
As far as I am concerned, there are many advantages to order food online sometimes. But to keep healthy, we’d better cook by ourselves more often.

After bikes and umbrellas are made sharable across China, some companies started eyeing the fitness market, so shared gym rooms have hit the streets in Beijing.
Unlike common gyms that provide large, open spaces for many members to share at the same time, the newly built shared gym rooms are small, separate rooms for a person to use, often set up near living communities.
Every room provides a treadmill (跑步机), an air cleaner, a mirror, a television and an air conditioner (空调) and users can let down the curtains (窗帘) for privacy. When exercising, users can listen to music, watch movies and check emails by connecting to the Internet by the screen. But there’s no shower.
Similar to using a shared bike, users can find a shared gym room by a smartphone app, book a room in advance and then scan a QR code (二维码) for use. A refundable deposit (可退还的押金) of 99 yuan is required, and users are charged 1 yuan every 5 minutes.
The shared gym rooms are created by Misspao, a Beijing-based technology company. Though the idea of the shared fitness experience is not totally new, the company has already raised over 100 million yuan since it was founded.
The sharing economy is still becoming popular in China. In March, the State Information Centre published a report which says that the total value of China’s sharing economy will see a yearly growth of 40% in the coming years, and it is expected to make a great contribution to the country’s GDP.
4. What makes the shared gym room different from the common one?
A. Using large areas together.
B. Offering free courses.
C. Having some more expensive equipment (设备).
D. Holding one person at a time.
5. What do people have to do if they want to use the shared gym room?
A. Pay 100 yuan first.
B. Put down curtains to keep private.
C. Have a shower before exercise.
D. Book a room before using it.
6. What is the author’s attitude towards China’s sharing economy?
A. Positive. B. Unclear. C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
7. What is the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To support the idea of sharing gym rooms.
B. To praise a technology company.
C. To introduce shared gym rooms.
D. To tell the future of shared gym rooms.

Founded by philanthropist (慈善家)and Fuyao Group chairman Cao Dewang, a new kind of university is rising in Fujian Province—Fuyao University of Science and Technology (FUST). This non-profit (非营利的) private university aims to solve a big problem: China needs more top engineers in fields like artificial intelligence and advanced (先进的) industries.
FUST is different from traditional universities. It follows a “small-size, high-quality” model, accepting only a few hundred students each year to ensure personalized (个性化) education. The courses pay much attention to interdisciplinary (跨学科) learning, including subjects like robotics, material science, and data engineering.
One of FUST’s key features is its 50-50 time split: students do not just study. Half of their time is spent in the classroom, and the other half on internships (实习), or research in real labs with industry partners. Besides,there are no traditional entrance exams for a master’s or a doctor’s degree. A student’s progress is based on his academic (学术的) performance and creativity.
As for teachers, the university invites Nobel Prize winners, top scientists, and global tech leaders as visiting professors. The president Wang Jianguo who works for FUST without any payment says, “In the future, FUST plans to establish joint research centers with universities in Germany and Japan, aiming to become a global center for developing industrial talent. “
8. What does FUST insist on its teaching approach (方式)?
A. Large class sizes for efficiency
B. Memorizing textbooks
C. Interdisciplinary and practical learning
D. Teaching only theories
9. What does the “50-50 time split” mean?
A. Half the students study abroad
B. Students spend equal time on theory and practice
C. Tuition is shared by family and government
D. Classes are held five days a week
10. How do students get higher degrees at FUST?
A. By taking national exams
B. By passing interviews with foreign professors
C. Based on their academic performance and creativity
D. By publishing papers in English
11. What is FUST’s long-term goal?
A. To replace traditional universities
B. To become a global center for industrial talent
C. To train only local factory workers
D. To focus only on artificial intelligence

Mount Tai is one of the most famous mountains in China. Every year, millions of tourists visit it. But the mountain has steep and rocky paths. People can only climb up and down on these narrow (狭窄的) roads. For many years, workers called “porters” (搬运工) carried heavy things like food, water, and rubbish. They worked very hard because the paths were difficult.
In 2023, over 8.62 million tourists came to Mount Tai. This created a big problem:about 24,000 tons of rubbish every year! Cleaning and moving the rubbish is not easy. Cableways (索道) can help at the start and end of the mountain, but the middle part still needs workers. However, fewer people want to do this hard job now.
Now a new helper has come: a “smart porter” robot dog! This robot dog can carry heavy things on its back. It has four strong legs that move just like a real dog’s. There are cameras on its “head” that can “see” the way, and smart chips (芯片) inside help it think and decide. It walks on the rocky paths just like people. And it doesn’t get tired and can work all day. Now, porters can spend less time on heavy lifting and more time on other important things, like keeping an eye on the mountain’s environment.
Scientists believe these robot helpers are very important. “The smart robot dog doesn’t just carry rubbish. It helps make visiting special mountains like Tai safer,” says Dr. Lin Wei, who works on the project. “By using machines for the hardest work, we protect both workers and nature.” With this technology, Mount Tai can stay clean, letting many visitors enjoy it while protecting it for the future.
12. What does the underlined phrase “steep and rocky” mean in Paragraph 1?
A. Big and clean.
B. Pleasant and clear.
C. Hard to climb and full of rocks.
D. Easy to walk on.
13. Why does the writer write Paragraph 2?
A. To ask tourists not to make too much rubbish
B. To compare different ways of cleaning the mountain.
C. To show the difficulties of solving the rubbish problem.
D. To say that porters should get more money for their work.
14. What are the advantages (优势) of the robot dog?
①It can stop tourists from littering.
②It can move on difficult mountain paths.
③It can carry heavy things without getting tired.
④It can make smart decisions with cameras and chips.
A. ②③④ B. ①②③ C. ①②④ D. ①③④
15. What can we infer (推断) from Dr. Lin Wei’s words?
A. The robot dogs are mainly used to bring fun to tourists on Mount Tai.
B. Mount Tai is the only mountain in China needing this technology
C. There will be no more human porters because we don’t need them anymore.
D. The robot solution could be used in other places with similar problems.

VI. Reading Expression (本题 5 小题,每小题 2 分,共 10 分)
Physical exercise is good for our mind, body and spirit. Today, working out (锻炼) through online videos is becoming very popular. Since the Internet is widely used, it’s very easy for us to do so. That means we can work out anytime anywhere.
One of my friends, Lin Fei, followed short workout videos to do daily exercise. “With live programs, I feel like working out with my friends, which encourages me to hold on to the last minute, ” she said. Another friend of mine, Michael, told me, “I have a fear of working out at the gym (健身房) because I don’t like being watched by others. Working out at home makes working out much more enjoyable.”
With their examples, I decided to give it a try. When I told my plan to my elder sister, a P. E. teacher, she reminded me that workout videos could be helpful but might still carry some problems.
“Without being with someone in person, you will be less willing (愿意的) to work out at your best. Working out at the gym allows you to have advice in real time and get pushed harder,” my sister said to me. “Well, if you really want to have a try, first, choose proper programs or videos. That’s very important. And then ask your friends for advice. Their experiences can give you a good insight into what you can expect. Anyway, don’t be addicted (沉迷的) to it. You should try different ways to work out to be healthy.”
At her suggestions, I finally followed an online workout program. After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful. Compared with going to the gym, using online videos to work out is a much cheaper and time-saving choice. But it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or too busy to stick to it.
41. It is becoming ________ to ________ through online videos.
42. Michael is ________ to work out at the gym ________ he doesn’t like to be watched by others.
43. If you are with ________ in person, you won’t feel like ________ out to your best.
44. How did the writer feel about his first period of training?
____________________________________
45. Would you like to follow online videos to work out? Why or why not?
