A
Trendy vacation spots often come with big crowds and expensive price tags. To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities.
Maui vs. St. Lucia
Maui, Hawaii: $4,259
St. Lucia: $3,650
If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species in particular. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.
Barcelona vs. Mexico City
Barcelona, Spain: $3,819
Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319
Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine — but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts (文物) housed inside it.
Athens vs. Cuzco
Athens, Greece: $3,910
Cuzco, Peru: $3,042
Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality? Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.
1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui?
A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike.
C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity.
2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum?
A. It has a history of over 100 years.
B. It is made of wood and stone.
C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City.
D. It is as impressive as its collections.
3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August?
A. Tickets must be booked early.
B. Visiting time is restricted.
C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins.
D. Hotel prices drop significantly.
【答案】1. D 2. D 3. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章为游客推荐了三个热门旅游城市的替代目的地,以避开人群和高昂费用,并分别介绍了每对目的地之间的相似之处和独特亮点。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据Maui vs. St. Lucia部分中“Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species particularly. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.(探索自然保护区,尤其可以观察180多种鸟类,你甚至可能看到稀有的圣卢西亚鹦鹉)”可知,圣卢西亚独有的是鸟类多样性。故选D。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Barcelona vs. Mexico City部分中“This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts housed inside it.(这座建于20世纪60年代的巨大混凝土建筑,与其内部收藏的世界上最大的古代墨西哥文物一样令人惊叹)”可知,国家人类学博物馆与其馆藏一样令人印象深刻。故选D。
【3题详解】
推理判断题。根据Athens vs. Cuzco部分中“You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.(你需要提前计划才能看到它神奇的山峰:每日门票数量有限且往往售罄,尤其是在7月和8月的旺季)”可知,八月是旺季,门票需要提前预订。故选A。
B
German Sinologist Martin Woesler, who has devoted years to Chinese literature, recently visited Dunhuang, a historic Silk Road city in Gansu Province, China. His trip, part of attending the meeting — the Fourth Dialogue on Exchanges Among Civilizations (文明), became an unforgettable cultural discovery.
Beforehand, Woesler had learned Dunhuang’s role as a desert oasis (绿洲), a treasure house of art, and crossroads of Silk Road cultures. Yet seeing it firsthand amazed him. Standing in front of the Mogao Grottoes, he was attracted by the mixed cultures in Cave 285. There, Greek gods Apollo and Diana, Chinese stories about Fuxi and Nyuwa, Indian Buddhist flying figures, and Daoist immortal beings all appear together in frescoes (壁画).“Different traditions come together here to make a 1,000-year-old wonder,” he said, amazed by Dunhuang’s spirit of inclusiveness.
Woesler’s journey with Chinese culture began 38 years ago in his hometown of Münster, Germany, when a Chinese poem at a poetry reading awakened his curiosity. He devoted himself to narrowing the cultural gap between China and Germany. Then he studied at Peking University and spent over thirty years in China. As a translator and educator, he launched workshops to promote Chinese literature in Germany, aiming to address the imbalance in cultural translation — where far fewer Chinese works reach German readers compared to foreign ones in Chinese.
Dunhuang’s experience also inspired his thoughts on digital-age dialogue. He believes technologies like digital protection and virtual (虚拟的) exhibitions can make ancient treasures accessible, helping people welcome differences with openness. “We can achieve win-win progress only by learning from each other,” he notes, stressing how Dunhuang’s age-old wisdom holds the key to modern global harmony.
As his trip ended, Woesler carried away more than memories — he got renewed confidence in the power of civilizational dialogue. “Dunhuang is not just a place; it’s a lesson in how diversity can create something timeless,” he concludes, hoping its spirit will guide modern efforts to build a more connected world.
4. Why did Woesler visit Dunhuang?
A. To explore the ancient Silk Road.
B. To take part in a cultural exchange activity.
C. To study the role of Dunhuang as a desert oasis.
D. To launch cultural workshops on Chinese literature.
5. What impressed Woesler in Cave 285?
A. The mystery of Chinese stories.
B. The larger collection of foreign artworks.
C. The peaceful coexistence of diverse cultures.
D. The advanced digital protection technologies applied.
6. What did Woesler do to bridge China-German cultural divides?
A. He translated German literature into Chinese.
B. He promoted Chinese literature in Germany.
C. He set up art workshops in Peking University.
D. He teamed with educators to explore Chinese culture.
7. What can be the best title for the text?
A. The History of the Silk Road Art Treasures
B. Digital Technology: Renewing Ancient Dunhuang
C. A Journey to Dunhuang: Discovering Cultural Mix
D. Martin Woesler’s Lifelong Study of Chinese Culture
【答案】4. B 5. C 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了德国汉学家Martin Woesler的敦煌之旅及他对当地文化融合的感悟。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“His trip, part of attending the meeting — the Fourth Dialogue on Exchanges Among Civilizations, became an unforgettable cultural discovery.(他的这次旅行是参加第四届文明交流对话会的一部分,成了一次难忘的文化发现)”可知,Woesler访问敦煌是为了参加一项文化交流活动。故选B。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段中“There, Greek gods Apollo and Diana, Chinese stories about Fuxi and Nyuwa, Indian Buddhist flying figures, and Daoist immortal beings all appear together in frescoes (壁画). “Different traditions come together here to make a 1,000-year-old wonder,” he said, amazed by Dunhuang’s spirit of inclusiveness.(在那里,希腊神阿波罗和狄安娜、中国伏羲和女娲的故事、印度佛教飞天以及道教神仙都一起出现在壁画中。“不同的传统在这里汇聚,创造了一个有着1000年历史的奇迹,”他说,对敦煌的包容精神感到惊讶)”可知,Woesler在285窟被壁画中希腊神祇、中国传说人物等不同文化形象的共存所吸引,体现了多元文化的和谐交融。故选C。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第三段中“As a translator and educator, he launched workshops to promote Chinese literature in Germany, aiming to address the imbalance in cultural translation — where far fewer Chinese works reach German readers compared to foreign ones in Chinese.(作为一名翻译家和教育家,他在德国开设了推广中国文学的研讨会,旨在解决文化翻译的不平衡问题——与外国作品进入中国相比,进入德国读者视野的中国作品要少得多)”可知,Woesler通过在德国举办工作坊推广中国文学来弥合中德两国的文化隔阂。故选B。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。结合第一段“German Sinologist Martin Woesler, who has devoted years to Chinese literature, recently visited Dunhuang, a historic Silk Road city in Gansu Province, China. His trip, part of attending the meeting — the Fourth Dialogue on Exchanges Among Civilizations, became an unforgettable cultural discovery.(德国汉学家Martin Woesler致力于中国文学研究多年,最近访问了中国甘肃省的历史名城敦煌。他的这次旅行是参加第四届文明交流对话会议的一部分,成为了一次难忘的文化发现之旅)”可知,文章主要围绕Woesler的敦煌之旅以及他在敦煌发现的文化融合展开。选项C“A Journey to Dunhuang: Discovering Cultural Mix(敦煌之旅:发现文化融合)”涵盖“旅程”和“文化和谐”两大核心,最贴合主旨,适合作为文章的标题。故选C。

The Plastic Problem: A Global Challenge
Environmental scientist Dr. Sarah Johnson once joked that if aliens (外星人) visited Earth, they might think plastic bags were the planet’s dominant species. “These lightweight creatures cover land and sea, threat wildlife, and never truly disappear,” she said. Her words highlight a serious issue: humanity’s addiction to single-use plastics.
Plastic pollution is widespread and cause a lot of damage and destruction. Every year, over 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the oceans, killing millions of marine animals. Sea turtles mistake plastic bags for jellyfish, birds get tangled in fishing nets, and whales ingest microplastics that accumulate in their stomachs. Microplastics—tiny plastic particles smaller than a grain of rice—have even been found in human bodies, potentially harming our health. Studies suggest they could enter our bloodstream and organs, causing long-term risks. Plastic production also contributes to climate change: manufacturing and disposing of plastics release greenhouse gases, worsening global warming. In fact, if plastic production continues at current rates, the industry could account for 20% of global oil consumption by 2050.
The convenience of plastic has come at a high cost. In some countries, plastic bags are used for just minutes but take centuries to degrade. Many cities spend millions on cleanup efforts, while poorer regions struggle to manage waste. For example, in coastal towns in Southeast Asia, plastic waste blocks drainage (排水) systems during rainy seasons, causing floods. In some African countries, plastic bottles and bags litter streets and fields, attracting pests and spreading diseases. The economic costs are astonishing: a recent report estimated that plastic pollution costs the global economy $13 billion annually in environmental damage and cleanup expenses.
Solutions exist, but they require action. Bans on single-use plastics have been effective in some places. However, new technologies are emerging. Additionally, reusable alternatives are affordable and eco-friendly. “Change starts with individual choices,” says Johnson. “If we stop using disposable plastics and demand sustainable options, we can save our planet from becoming a plastic graveyard.” The time to act is now. But governments, businesses, and communities must also cooperate. Together, we can turn the tide against this global challenge.
8. What does the word “dominant” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A. well-controlled B. fastest-growing
C. most common D. highly intelligent
9. According to the passage, which of the following is a direct effect of plastic pollution?
A. Global temperatures rise due to plastic production.
B. Recycling programs become more expensive.
C. Cities spend less money on waste management.
D. Floods occur frequently in all coastal areas.
10. What can be inferred from the example of Southeast Asia in Paragraph 3?
A. Plastic waste is the main cause of floods worldwide.
B. Wealthier countries have better waste management systems.
C. Rainy seasons make plastic pollution more visible.
D. Poor regions face greater challenges in handling plastic waste.
11. What is Dr. Sarah Johnson’s attitude towards plastic pollution?
A. She believes plastic is necessary for human convenience.
B. She is worried about its long-term effects on the environment.
C. She doubts the effectiveness of plastic recycling methods.
D. She is optimistic that plastic problems will solve naturally.
【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述塑料污染成全球挑战,危害海洋生物、人类健康,加剧气候变化,需各国及个人行动,禁用一次性塑料,转向可持续选择。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“Environmental scientist Dr. Sarah Johnson once joked that if aliens (外星人) visited Earth, they might think plastic bags were the planet’s dominant species. ‘These lightweight creatures cover land and sea, threat wildlife, and never truly disappear,’ she said.”(环境科学家Sarah Johnson博士曾开玩笑说,如果外星人访问地球,他们可能会认为塑料袋是地球上的 dominant物种。她说:‘这些轻盈的生物覆盖了陆地和海洋,威胁着野生动物,永远不会真正消失。’)” 可知,这里指出塑料遍布地球,所以应该认为塑料袋是地球上的常见的物种所以猜测dominant为“最常见的”意思。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Plastic production also contributes to climate change: manufacturing and disposing of plastics release greenhouse gases, worsening global warming.(塑料生产也加剧了气候变化:塑料的制造和处理释放温室气体,加剧全球变暖。)”可知,塑料生产导致全球气温上升是塑料污染的直接影响。故选A项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Many cities spend millions on cleanup efforts, while poorer regions struggle to manage waste. For example, in coastal towns in Southeast Asia, plastic waste blocks drainage (排水) systems during rainy seasons, causing floods. In some African countries, plastic bottles and bags litter streets and fields, attracting pests and spreading diseases. The economic costs are astonishing: a recent report estimated that plastic pollution costs the global economy $13 billion annually in environmental damage and cleanup expenses.(许多城市花费数百万美元进行清理工作,而较贫穷的地区则难以管理废物。例如,在东南亚的沿海城镇,塑料垃圾在雨季堵塞了排水系统,导致洪水。在一些非洲国家,塑料瓶和塑料袋散落在街道和田野上,吸引害虫并传播疾病。经济成本令人震惊:最近的一份报告估计,塑料污染每年给全球经济造成130亿美元的环境破坏和清理费用。)”可知,东南亚的例子说明贫困地区在处理塑料垃圾时面临更大挑战。故选D项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Her words highlight a serious issue: humanity’s addiction to single-use plastics.(她的话凸显了一个严重问题:人类对一次性塑料的依赖。)”及最后一段“‘Change starts with individual choices,’ says Johnson. ‘If we stop using disposable plastics and demand sustainable options, we can save our planet from becoming a plastic graveyard.’ The time to act is now.(约翰逊说,‘改变始于个人选择。如果我们停止使用一次性塑料并要求可持续的选择,我们可以拯救我们的星球,使其不会成为塑料墓地。’现在是采取行动的时候了。)”可知,她担心塑料污染对环境的长期影响。故选B项。
D
A slow-paced Citywalk is becoming popular across China. Different from rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has appeared as a popular choice to explore cities at a leisurely (悠闲的) pace.
Citywalk particularly attracts the younger generation who are often caught up in busy work schedules. As proved by the increasing popularity of hash tags (话题标签) like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohongshu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464,600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.
Citywalk can be a special guided trip for a small group of people, or simply a leisurely walk for one or two to explore new areas, sticking to the key point: avoiding famous scenic spots and big crowds to gain a more inclusive experience of the places you visit. It offers people a way to closely experience city culture and local traditions.
Citywalk routes are specially planned to the specific interests of both tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions center around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle.
As Citywalk extends beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation. Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential (潜力) of Citywalk, including it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced for Citywalk participants.
“By slowing down and exploring the city streets, observing people’s lives, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one has the chance to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism lover.
12. Why does the author mention the example of Xiaohongshu?
A. To stress the importance of social media.
B. To illustrate the wide popularity of Citywalk.
C. To call on people to click to view Xiaohongshu.
D. To persuade readers to take part in “City walk for vacation”.
13. What’s the meaning of the underlined “staggering” in paragraph 2?
A. Surprising. B. Frightening. C. Confusing. D. Embarrassing.
14. Which of the following is NOT Citywalk?
A. A free walk to visit old hutong in Beijing.
B. A holiday group travel to tourist attractions of Qufu.
C. A trip for tourists to enjoy the teahouse culture in Chengdu.
D. A leisurely tour to experience city transformation of Guangzhou.
15. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk?
A. Facilities in the museums have been improved.
B. Connection has been strengthened among cities.
C. More shopping centers have been built in third-tier cities.
D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。Citywalk在中国流行,以慢节奏探索城市,受年轻人喜爱,反映生活态度转变,带来旅游新机遇。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段第二句“As proved by the increasing popularity of hash tags (话题标签) like ‘City walk for vacation’ on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohongshu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464,600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.(正如生活方式分享平台小红书上‘City walk for vacation’这样的话题标签越来越受欢迎所证明的那样,该话题浏览量达到了惊人的4.65亿次,互动量近46.46万次,这一趋势确实吸引了令人难以置信的关注)”可知,作者提到小红书的例子是为了说明Citywalk的广泛流行。故选B项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段第二句“As proved by the increasing popularity of hash tags (话题标签) like ‘City walk for vacation’ on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohongshu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464,600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.(正如生活方式分享平台小红书上‘City walk for vacation’这样的话题标签越来越受欢迎所证明的那样,该话题浏览量达到了staggering4.65亿次,互动量近46.46万次,这一趋势确实吸引了令人难以置信的关注)”,结合句中“truly capturing unbelievable attention(确实吸引了令人难以置信的关注)”可推测,staggering 意思是“令人惊讶的”,与surprising意思相近。故选A项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Citywalk can be a special guided trip for a small group of people, or simply a leisurely walk for one or two to explore new areas, sticking to the key point: avoiding famous scenic spots and big crowds to gain a more inclusive experience of the places you visit.(Citywalk可以是一小群人的特别有导游的旅行,或者只是一两个人悠闲地散步去探索新的区域,坚持关键一点:避开著名的景点和拥挤的人群,以获得对所访问地方更具包容性的体验)”可知,Citywalk要避开著名景点和拥挤人群。而B选项A holiday group travel to tourist attractions of Qufu.(去曲阜旅游景点的假日团体旅行),去的是旅游景点,不符合Citywalk的特点,所以不是Citywalk。故选B项。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段最后一句“In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced for Citywalk participants.(在上海,已经为Citywalk参与者推出了专门设计的公交线路)”可知,一些政府为推广Citywalk采取的措施是推出了特定的公共交通路线。故选D项。

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了中国的茶文化,包括采茶、茶艺和茶品。
【36题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:自古以来,茶就在中国文化中发挥着重要作用,在诗歌、传统和习俗中都留下了印记。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作结果状语,make和逻辑主语前面整句话为主动关系,所以为现在分词形式。故填making。
【37题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:许多爱茶的人喜欢茶不仅仅是因为它的味道,还因为茶道的美。“not just for...but also for...”表示 “不仅是因为……而且是因为……”,是固定搭配,这里指茶爱好者喜欢茶不仅是因为它的味道,还因为茶道之美。故填for。
【38题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:摘茶叶是中国南方长江流域一项重要的春季活动。“Picking tea leaves”是动名词短语作主语,谓语动词用单数形式,这里讲述的是一般事实,用一般现在时,所以填 is。故填is。
【39题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:最早的一批茶叶通常在清明之前就可以采收了,清明是在四月初,气温开始上升,降雨量增加。分析句子可知,设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词 “Qingming”,先行词在从句中作主语,所以为关系代词which引导。故填which。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这种珍贵的小产量茶叶,被称为明前茶,因其卓越的品质而广受欢迎。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作后置定语修饰tea,tea和call为被动关系,所以为过去分词形式。故填called。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:中国东部的浙江省被认为是茶叶的主要产地。根据句意可知,“a major producer” 表示 “一个主要的生产地 / 生产者”,这里指浙江省被认为是茶叶的主要产地,用名词形式。故填producer。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:春天,当地山坡上到处都是茶农在自己的土地上种植茶叶。“filled with tea workers planting tea”是“with + 宾语 + 宾语补足语” 的结构,workers和plant之间是主动关系,用现在分词作宾语补足语,表示“当地的山坡上满是在他们的土地上种植茶树的茶农”。故填planting。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:在旺季,游客来到茶园,一边欣赏美景,一边品尝一杯新鲜的茶。修饰动词“brewed”,要用副词形式,“freshly brewed”表示“新冲泡的”。故填freshly。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意:几千年前,中国人用手将一片叶子酿造成美味的饮料。根据句意可知,“a leaf”这里表示“一片茶叶”,泛指,leaf为首音节辅音单词,用不定冠词a。故填a。
【45题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:2022年,中国传统茶叶加工技术及相关社会实践被列入《人类非物质文化遗产代表作名录》。“Traditional tea processing techniques and associated social practices”是复数主语,与“add”之间是被动关系,且时间是 2022 年,所以用一般过去时的被动语态were added,表示“被列入”。故填were added。

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
In a coastal village named Seaford, lived a brave young woman named Agatha, who was known for her adventurous nature. From the time she could walk, she would eagerly run towards the crashing waves, feeling the sand under her feet and the cool sea spray on her face. She had a strong will and a kind heart. Agatha loved the ocean deeply and spent most of her days exploring the beautiful beaches and sparkling waters that surrounded her house.
One sunny morning, while walking along the shore, Agatha noticed something unusual. A group of seagulls were circling above the crashing waves and making strange cries. Concerned for their well-being, she followed them, her instinct (本能) guiding her toward danger.
As she approached a high cliff (悬崖), Agatha stopped in shock. On a narrow ledge (岩架), high above the rough waves, lay a young dolphin trapped in a thick fishing net. Its shiny body shone under the golden rays of the sun, but the net held it tightly. With each struggle, the net tightened around its delicate body, leaving painful marks on its skin. Its tail moved helplessly, each movement a request for help, while its bitter cries for assistance echoed through the air.
A sense of urgency filled her, pushing her forward with determination. Realizing that the time was tight, Agatha knew she had to act immediately to free this poor creature from its difficult position before it became too tired or was swept away by the rising tide.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help.

Paragraph 2: As the dolphin was gently released into the waters, it hesitated for a moment.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Version 1
Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help. Her bare feet stepped quickly on the soft sand, and the salty wind brushed her cheeks as she shouted for villagers at the top of her lungs. Several fishermen and young people who were mending nets by the shore immediately noticed her anxious look and followed her without hesitation. They carried thick ropes, sharp knives and simple rescue tools, rushing to the beach where the poor dolphin was trapped. Working together carefully, they cut the messy fishing net bit by bit, afraid of hurting the dolphin’s smooth skin. The dolphin seemed to feel their kindness, staying still and letting out soft, grateful sounds from its mouth.
Paragraph 2: As the dolphin was gently released into the waters, it hesitated for a moment. It swam slowly around Agatha and the villagers, its fin waving lightly as if saying thank you. Agatha reached out her hand and touched the dolphin’s warm body softly, with tears of joy shining in her eyes. After circling three times, the dolphin leaped high out of the water, drawing a beautiful arc in the golden sunset, then dived into the blue sea and disappeared gradually. Watching the dolphin swim freely again, Agatha smiled widely, knowing that this warm rescue would be the most unforgettable memory in her whole life because it served as a reminder that the true joy in life came from selflessly giving a hand to those in need.
Version 2
Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help. With every fiber of her body trembling with anxiety, she sprinted along the shore, her voice piercing / ripping the quiet seaside air as she cried out for assistance. Upon catching sight of her desperate expression, several experienced fishermen and warm-hearted villagers dropped whatever they were doing and rushed to follow her without a second thought. Armed with sharp knives and sturdy ropes, they approached the trapped dolphin cautiously, cutting the tangled fishing net with the utmost care to avoid injuring its delicate skin. The intelligent creature, sensing their goodwill, remained calm and let out soft, reassuring chirps throughout the rescue.
Paragraph 2: As the dolphin was gently released into the waters, it hesitated for a moment. It lingered beside Agatha and the villagers, gliding back and forth in a slow circle as if expressing its sincere gratitude. Agatha stretched out her hand, gently stroking its smooth and warm back, her eyes glistening with tears of relief and joy. Then, with a powerful flick of its tail, it leaped spectacularly into the air, carving a dazzling arc against the golden sunset before diving gracefully into the vast ocean. Watching the dolphin vanish into the blue waves, Agatha’s heart swelled with warmth, cherishing this touching moment as the most precious memory of her life.

Trendy vacation spots often come with big crowds and expensive price tags. To help you avoid both, look at the hottest travel cities below and find alternative destinations that provide similar atmosphere and activities.
Maui vs. St. Lucia
Maui, Hawaii: $4,259
St. Lucia: $3,650
If you want your vacation to include amazing volcanic beaches, coral reefs, rainforest hikes to waterfalls, and mountain scenery, you could go to Maui. But if you trade the waters of the Pacific for the Caribbean, you can enjoy a less expensive island tour in Saint Lucia. Visit the buildings with a long history. Bathe in the pool under a waterfall. Explore the nature reserve and observe more than 180 bird species in particular. You might even spot the rare St. Lucia parrot.
Barcelona vs. Mexico City
Barcelona, Spain: $3,819
Mexico City, Mexico: $2,319
Both Barcelona and Mexico City offer visitors historic streets, world-class museums and enough cuisine — but visiting Mexico City costs considerably less. Visit the National Anthropology Museum. This massive concrete building, built in the 1960s, is as breathtaking as the world’s largest collection of ancient Mexican artifacts (文物) housed inside it.
Athens vs. Cuzco
Athens, Greece: $3,910
Cuzco, Peru: $3,042
Looking for ancient ruins, mountainous scenery and warm hospitality? Greece may come to mind, but Peru checks all of those boxes and more. The ancient Inca ruins draw over a million visitors each year. You’ll need to plan in advance to see its magical peaks: Daily tickets are limited and tend to sell out, especially during peak seasons in July and August.
1. What is unique to St. Lucia compared to Maui?
A. Volcanic beach. B. Rainforest hike.
C. Pacific scenery. D. Bird diversity.
2. What can we know about the National Anthropology Museum?
A. It has a history of over 100 years.
B. It is made of wood and stone.
C. It links Barcelona and Mexico City.
D. It is as impressive as its collections.
3. What can be inferred about visiting Cuzco in August?
A. Tickets must be booked early.
B. Visiting time is restricted.
C. Fewer tourists visit the ruins.
D. Hotel prices drop significantly.
B
German Sinologist Martin Woesler, who has devoted years to Chinese literature, recently visited Dunhuang, a historic Silk Road city in Gansu Province, China. His trip, part of attending the meeting — the Fourth Dialogue on Exchanges Among Civilizations (文明), became an unforgettable cultural discovery.
Beforehand, Woesler had learned Dunhuang’s role as a desert oasis (绿洲), a treasure house of art, and crossroads of Silk Road cultures. Yet seeing it firsthand amazed him. Standing in front of the Mogao Grottoes, he was attracted by the mixed cultures in Cave 285. There, Greek gods Apollo and Diana, Chinese stories about Fuxi and Nyuwa, Indian Buddhist flying figures, and Daoist immortal beings all appear together in frescoes (壁画).“Different traditions come together here to make a 1,000-year-old wonder,” he said, amazed by Dunhuang’s spirit of inclusiveness.
Woesler’s journey with Chinese culture began 38 years ago in his hometown of Münster, Germany, when a Chinese poem at a poetry reading awakened his curiosity. He devoted himself to narrowing the cultural gap between China and Germany. Then he studied at Peking University and spent over thirty years in China. As a translator and educator, he launched workshops to promote Chinese literature in Germany, aiming to address the imbalance in cultural translation — where far fewer Chinese works reach German readers compared to foreign ones in Chinese.
Dunhuang’s experience also inspired his thoughts on digital-age dialogue. He believes technologies like digital protection and virtual (虚拟的) exhibitions can make ancient treasures accessible, helping people welcome differences with openness. “We can achieve win-win progress only by learning from each other,” he notes, stressing how Dunhuang’s age-old wisdom holds the key to modern global harmony.

The Plastic Problem: A Global Challenge
Environmental scientist Dr. Sarah Johnson once joked that if aliens (外星人) visited Earth, they might think plastic bags were the planet’s dominant species. “These lightweight creatures cover land and sea, threat wildlife, and never truly disappear,” she said. Her words highlight a serious issue: humanity’s addiction to single-use plastics.
Plastic pollution is widespread and cause a lot of damage and destruction. Every year, over 8 million tons of plastic waste enter the oceans, killing millions of marine animals. Sea turtles mistake plastic bags for jellyfish, birds get tangled in fishing nets, and whales ingest microplastics that accumulate in their stomachs. Microplastics—tiny plastic particles smaller than a grain of rice—have even been found in human bodies, potentially harming our health. Studies suggest they could enter our bloodstream and organs, causing long-term risks. Plastic production also contributes to climate change: manufacturing and disposing of plastics release greenhouse gases, worsening global warming. In fact, if plastic production continues at current rates, the industry could account for 20% of global oil consumption by 2050.
The convenience of plastic has come at a high cost. In some countries, plastic bags are used for just minutes but take centuries to degrade. Many cities spend millions on cleanup efforts, while poorer regions struggle to manage waste. For example, in coastal towns in Southeast Asia, plastic waste blocks drainage (排水) systems during rainy seasons, causing floods. In some African countries, plastic bottles and bags litter streets and fields, attracting pests and spreading diseases. The economic costs are astonishing: a recent report estimated that plastic pollution costs the global economy $13 billion annually in environmental damage and cleanup expenses.
Solutions exist, but they require action. Bans on single-use plastics have been effective in some places. However, new technologies are emerging. Additionally, reusable alternatives are affordable and eco-friendly. “Change starts with individual choices,” says Johnson. “If we stop using disposable plastics and demand sustainable options, we can save our planet from becoming a plastic graveyard.” The time to act is now. But governments, businesses, and communities must also cooperate. Together, we can turn the tide against this global challenge.
8. What does the word “dominant” in Paragraph 1 most probably mean?
A. well-controlled B. fastest-growing
C. most common D. highly intelligent
9. According to the passage, which of the following is a direct effect of plastic pollution?
A. Global temperatures rise due to plastic production.
B. Recycling programs become more expensive.
C. Cities spend less money on waste management.
D. Floods occur frequently in all coastal areas.
10. What can be inferred from the example of Southeast Asia in Paragraph 3?
A. Plastic waste is the main cause of floods worldwide.
B. Wealthier countries have better waste management systems.
C. Rainy seasons make plastic pollution more visible.
D. Poor regions face greater challenges in handling plastic waste.
11. What is Dr. Sarah Johnson’s attitude towards plastic pollution?
A. She believes plastic is necessary for human convenience.
B. She is worried about its long-term effects on the environment.
C. She doubts the effectiveness of plastic recycling methods.
D. She is optimistic that plastic problems will solve naturally.
D
A slow-paced Citywalk is becoming popular across China. Different from rushing past overcrowded tourist landmarks, the new trend has appeared as a popular choice to explore cities at a leisurely (悠闲的) pace.
Citywalk particularly attracts the younger generation who are often caught up in busy work schedules. As proved by the increasing popularity of hash tags (话题标签) like “City walk for vacation” on lifestyle sharing platform Xiaohongshu, with a staggering 465 million views and nearly 464,600 engagements, the trend is truly capturing unbelievable attention.
Citywalk can be a special guided trip for a small group of people, or simply a leisurely walk for one or two to explore new areas, sticking to the key point: avoiding famous scenic spots and big crowds to gain a more inclusive experience of the places you visit. It offers people a way to closely experience city culture and local traditions.
Citywalk routes are specially planned to the specific interests of both tourists and locals. For tourists, the focus is on sharing local customs and traditions, while for locals, discussions center around the city’s past, present, and future. The growing trend of Citywalk reflects a changing attitude towards life, embracing a warmer, more relaxed, and slower-paced lifestyle.
As Citywalk extends beyond first-tier cities like Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, to second-and third-tier cities, it brings fresh opportunities for the tourism industry, in such areas as dining, shopping, and accommodation. Governments in Beijing and Shandong have recognized the potential (潜力) of Citywalk, including it into their action plans to promote cultural tourism and leisure activities. In Shanghai, public bus lines specially designed have been introduced for Citywalk participants.
“By slowing down and exploring the city streets, observing people’s lives, and immersing oneself in the context of museums and art galleries, one has the chance to embrace the pleasure of life,” said Luo Jun, a cultural tourism lover.
12. Why does the author mention the example of Xiaohongshu?
A. To stress the importance of social media.
B. To illustrate the wide popularity of Citywalk.
C. To call on people to click to view Xiaohongshu.
D. To persuade readers to take part in “City walk for vacation”.
13. What’s the meaning of the underlined “staggering” in paragraph 2?
A. Surprising. B. Frightening. C. Confusing. D. Embarrassing.
14. Which of the following is NOT Citywalk?
A. A free walk to visit old hutong in Beijing.
B. A holiday group travel to tourist attractions of Qufu.
C. A trip for tourists to enjoy the teahouse culture in Chengdu.
D. A leisurely tour to experience city transformation of Guangzhou.
15. What have some governments done to promote Citywalk?
A. Facilities in the museums have been improved.
B. Connection has been strengthened among cities.
C. More shopping centers have been built in third-tier cities.
D. Specific public transportation routes have been introduced.

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
In a coastal village named Seaford, lived a brave young woman named Agatha, who was known for her adventurous nature. From the time she could walk, she would eagerly run towards the crashing waves, feeling the sand under her feet and the cool sea spray on her face. She had a strong will and a kind heart. Agatha loved the ocean deeply and spent most of her days exploring the beautiful beaches and sparkling waters that surrounded her house.
One sunny morning, while walking along the shore, Agatha noticed something unusual. A group of seagulls were circling above the crashing waves and making strange cries. Concerned for their well-being, she followed them, her instinct (本能) guiding her toward danger.
As she approached a high cliff (悬崖), Agatha stopped in shock. On a narrow ledge (岩架), high above the rough waves, lay a young dolphin trapped in a thick fishing net. Its shiny body shone under the golden rays of the sun, but the net held it tightly. With each struggle, the net tightened around its delicate body, leaving painful marks on its skin. Its tail moved helplessly, each movement a request for help, while its bitter cries for assistance echoed through the air.
A sense of urgency filled her, pushing her forward with determination. Realizing that the time was tight, Agatha knew she had to act immediately to free this poor creature from its difficult position before it became too tired or was swept away by the rising tide.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Paragraph 1: Heart racing, Agatha ran back to the village to get help.
