B
语篇导读:文章讲述了年迈的木匠Elias在一个充满“有序混乱”的工坊里,帮助年轻女子Lena修复她祖母留下的音乐盒
的故事。通过修复过程,Lea不仅学会了木工技艺,更领悟了耐心与尊重,两代人之间建立了深厚的情感连接。
24.B
定位:第二段首句:“The workshop was a sanctuary of controlled chaos.接着描述了空气中弥漫着亚麻籽油和陈年橡木的舒
适气味,对Elias来说这是“创作的大教堂(cathedral of creation)”。
解析:词义猜测题。虽然有chaos(混乱)”,但修饰词是“controlled(受控的)”,且后文提到它是“sanctuary(避难所/
圣地)”和“cathedral'',充满舒适感。因此这是一种充满创造力的、令人平静的空间,而非危险或杂乱的。
25D
定位:第二段Lena的话:“It's the last thing I have of hers..”(这是我关于她仅存的东西了)。
解析:细节理解题。Lena强调这是祖母留下的最后遗物,具有极高的情感价值。
26.B
定位:最后一段:But she had received more than a repaired object.She had learned a language of patience and respect..”。
解析:推理判断题。文章指出Lena学到的不仅仅是修补物件,更是一种“耐心和尊重的语言(language of patience and

定位:全文主旨。工坊成为了“连接两代人的桥梁(bridge between generations)”,让破碎的东西(broken things)和或许
破碎的精神(broken spirits)得以复原(made whole again)。
解析:主旨大意题。文章核心在于通过Elias的指导和共同的创造过程,治愈了Lena的悲伤,修复了代沟。
语篇导读:文章介绍了“循环经济(Circular Economy)”的概念,对比了传统的线性经济(获取-制造-浪费),阐述了循
环经济的三大原则(消除废弃物、循环利用材料、再生自然系统),并讨论了其经济潜力及面临的挑战。
28.C
定位:第一段:“a circular economy is designed to be regenerative.keep products..at their highest utility.distinguishing between
technical and biological cvcles..”第二段核心原则:designing out waste.keeping products.in use'”。
解析:细节理解题。循环经济的核心目标是消除浪费并保持资源的循环使用。
29.C
定位:第二段例子:“a smartphone manufacturer might design a device with modular components that can be easily
replaced,extending its lifespan.”。
解析:细节理解题。模块化设计(modular components)以便于更换和延长寿命,是典型的循环经济策略。
30.A
定位:第三段:“unlock trillions of dollars in economic growth and create millions of jobs..”。
解析:细节理解题。文中明确提到循环经济能释放数万亿美元的经济增长并创造数百万个就业岗位。
31.D
定位:全文语气。作者既提到了巨大的经济潜力(Potential is immense),也指出了转型的障碍(transition is not without
hurdles),但最后提到势头正在增强(momentum is building)。
解析:观点态度题。作者对前景持乐观态度,但也承认存在困难,因此是“谨慎乐观的”。
D
语篇导读:文章介绍了现代神经科学中的“预测性处理(Predictive Processing)”理论。该理论认为大脑不是被动接收信
息,而是主动根据感官输入做出“最佳猜测”。文章探讨了这一理论如何解释自闭症(对预测误差过度敏感)和精神分裂
症(过度依赖内部预测),以及其对治疗的意义。
32.C
定位:第一段:“our perception of reality.isa‘controlled hallucination'generated by the brain's best guess about the causes of
sensory inputs..”。
解析:细节理解题。文中明确指出我们的现实感知是大脑基于感官输入做出的“受控猜测”。
33.B
定位:第二段:“When there is a mismatch..the brain either updates its internal model of the world or directs our attention to
resolve the discrepancy.”。
解析:细节理解题。当出现预测误差(prediction error)时,大脑要么更新模型,要么将注意力导向差异处。
34.B
定位:第三段:“autism may be linked to a heightened sensitivity to prediction errors,leading to a world that feels overwhelmingly
unpredictable and chaotic.”。
解析:细节理解题。文中指出自闭症可能与对预测误差的高度敏感(heightened sensitivity)有关。
35.A
定位:全文主旨。文章从大脑的预测机制、对精神疾病的解释到治疗意义,都在阐述大脑是如何通过预测来构建我们对
现实的认知的。
解析:主旨标题题。选项A最全面地概括了文章的核心内容。
第二节
语篇导读:文章基于心理学家Carol Dweck的研究,对比了“固定型思维(Fixed Mindset)”和“成长型思维(Growth
Mindset)”。文章阐述了成长型思维如何改变人们对挑战、努力和失败的看法,并提供了培养该思维的方法。
36.A
逻辑:前文讲固定型思维认为智力是静态的。后文讲这种信念塑造了他们对挑战、努力和反馈的态度。选项A承接前文,
具体说明固定型思维如何看待挑战(视为威胁),与后文形成逻辑连贯。
37.B
逻辑:前文讲成长型思维认为能力可以通过努力发展。选项B进一步解释这种观点:努力才是让你变聪明或有才华的原
因。与后文“努力是通往精通的道路”呼应。
38.D
逻辑:本段后文对比了固定型思维和成长型思维对“失败'的不同看法。选项D作为段落主题句,承上启下,指出这种视
角(成长型思维)也改变了人们处理失败的方式。
39.E逻辑:后文给出了具体的语言转换例子(把Ican't do this'改成Ican't do this yet'”)。选项E提到“改变自我对话
(sef-talk)”是培养这种思维的有效方式,与后文例子完美匹配。
40.G
逻辑:前文总结了成长型思维是拥抱学习旅程的关键。选项G升华主题,指出它是以自信和从容应对生活复杂性的关键,
作为全文的总结。

第二节
语篇导读:文章介绍了名为OpenClaw的开源AI智能体(以红色龙虾为Logo)在互联网上迅速走红的现象。它不仅能
聊天,还能作为数字助理执行浏览网页、整理文件等任务。虽然它带来了便利,但也存在安全风险,专家建议在不存储
敏感文件的备用电脑上运行。
56.has taken
解析:考查时态。
线索:句首的时间状语Recently(最近)是现在完成时的典型标志,表示从过去某时开始一直持续到现在并对现在产生
影响的动作。
结构:主语是OpenClaw(单数),因此助动词用has,加上动词take的过去分词taken。
57.projects
解析:考查名词单复数。
结构:固定搭配one of+the+形容词最高级+名词复数,意为“最…的…之一”。
词性:Project是可数名词。
58.Unlike
解析:考查介词及语境逻辑。
句意:传统的AI只能聊天,而OpenClaw能做更多事情(浏览网页、订机票)。两者之间存在对比关系。
词义:Unlike是介词,意为“不像…”,用来引出对比的对象。
59.a
解析:考查冠词。
结构:这里泛指“一个”数字助理。
发音规则:Digital以辅音音素/d/开头,因此用不定冠词a。
60.What
解析:考查主语从句引导词。
结构:该空位于句首,且在谓语动词nakes之前,说明它引导的是主语从句。从句中makes缺少主语,且指代事物(是
什么让OpenClaw如此特别)。
功能:What既能引导主语从句,又能在从句中作主语或宾语。
61.set
解析:考查非谓语动词(过去分词)。
结构:固定搭配get sth done,意为“使某物被…”。这里的done用过去分词形式,表示被动。
词形:动词set的过去式和过去分词与原形相同,均为set。
62.technological
解析:考查词性转换(形容词)。
结构:空格位于定冠词this和名词innovation之间,修饰名词需要用形容词。
构词:Technology(名词,科技)的形容词形式是Technological。.
63.However
解析:考查副词(逻辑连接)。
上下文:前文一直在讲OpenClaw带来的便利和创新(Positive).,后文开始讲安全风险和黑客威胁(Negative)。前后存在
明显的转折关系。
标点:空格后有逗号,且位于句首。However(然而)符合语境和标点要求。
64.destroying
解析:考查非谓语动词(动名词)。
结构:介词without(没有)后面必须接动名词(doing)形式。
并列:这里without管着两个动作:stealing(窃取)和destroying(破坏)。
65.tops
解析:考查时态与主谓一致。
结构:这是文章的陈述句,描述OpenClaw的性能表现,用一般现在时。主语是The performance(单数),因此谓语动词
用第三人称单数形式。
词义:Top作动词时意为“超过,居.…之首”。
第四部分写作
第一节
1.写作思路分析
体裁与格式:议论文。需要有明确的论点(双刃剑)、论据(利弊)、结论(观点)。
核心内容:
开头:引入话题,点明互联网是一把“双刃剑(Double--edged sword)”。
主体:分两方面论述。
利:信息获取便捷(Acquire information)、沟通高效(Convenient communication)、知识面广(Broaden horizons)。
弊:网络成瘾(Addiction)、隐私泄露(Privacy leaks)、网络诈骗(Cyber fraud)。
结尾:个人观点。强调理性使用(Use it rationally)、趋利避害。
2.高分范文
The Internet:A Double-Edged Sword
In the digital era,the Internet has become an indispensable part of our lives.However,it is undeniably a double-edged
sword,bringing both convenience and challenges.
On the one hand,it enables us to acquire information instantly and broadens our horizons.It also makes communication
seamless,connecting people across the globe.On the other hand,excessive use can lead to addiction,causing people to neglect
their studies or work.Moreover,issues like cyberbullying and personal data leaks are becoming increasingly serious.
In my opinion,we should use the Internet rationally.By striking a balance,we can enjoy its benefits while minimizing its
potential harms.
3.范文亮点评析
词汇升级,精准表达:范文中使用了"indispensable'"(不可或缺的)来替代普通的"very important'",使用"double-edged sword"
(双刃剑)作为核心论点,既切题又高级。此外,"cyberbullying”(网络欺凌)和"personal data leaks'"(个人数据泄露)
等词汇的使用,展示了考生对社会热点话题的准确描述能力。
逻辑严密,层次分明:文章结构非常清晰。开篇点题,主体段落使用了"On the one hand..On the other hand.."(一方面..
另一方面..)这一经典逻辑连接词,将互联网的利与弊进行了鲜明的对比,使读者一目了然。结尾用"In my opinion"
引出个人观点,首尾呼应。
句式多变,语法丰富:范文中运用了多种语法结构。例如,使用"enables us to acquire.."(使我们能够获取...)这样的
使役动词结构;使用"connecting people across the globe'"现在分词短语作状语,使句子更加紧凑流畅;以及"By striking a
balance"介词短语开头,展示了考生扎实的语法功底。
第二节
1.情节构思分析
情感线:Katelyn(愤怒>崩溃>感动>希望);Shwm(公事公办>同情>行动帮助)。
逻辑线:
第一段:Shawn听到故事后,决定不给“罚单(Speeding ticket)”,而是给一张“希望的票'。这个“票'应该是一种帮助(如:
免费用餐券、号召同事光顾)。
第二段:几周后,Shawn路过餐馆,发现生意变好了(因为警察同事的支持),Katelyn重拾信心,点题“善意的力量”。
2.高分范文
After hearing Katelyn's story,Shawn decided to issue a different kind of ticket.Instead of a fine,he handed her a voucher for
a free meal and a note that read,"Keep your head up.The community supports you."He also radioed his fellow officers,
encouraging them to stop by her restaurant for lunch.Katelyn was speechless,tears of gratitude replacing her tears of frustration.
She realized that even in her darkest hour,there were people who cared.That small act of kindness gave her the strength to keep
fighting for her dream.
A few weeks later,Shawn found himself on the road where Katelyn's restaurant was located.To his delight,the place was
bustling with customers,many of whom were wearing police uniforms.As he walked in,Katelyn greeted him with a radiant
smile,her eyes no longer filled with despair but with renewed hope.She thanked him sincerely,saying his gesture had sparked a
wave of support from the entire town.Seeing the restaurant thriving again,Shawn felt a deep sense of warmth,knowing that a
little compassion could truly make a big difference.
3.范文亮点评析
情节设计巧妙,逻辑闭环:范文最精彩之处在于对Different kind of ticket''的解读。作者没有生硬地编造情节,而是将其
设计为一张"voucher for a free meal"(免费餐券)和一张鼓励便条。紧接着,Shawn"radioed his fellow officers'"(呼叫同
事),这一细节完美解释了为什么几周后餐馆里会有“many.wearing police uniforms'”(许多穿警服的人)。这种前后呼应
的情节设计,展示了考生极强的逻辑思维能力。
情感描写细腻,画面感强:范文在描写人物情感变化时非常细腻。例如,用"tears of gratitude replacing her tears of
frustration''(感激的泪水取代了沮丧的泪水)这一对比,生动地刻画了Katelyn内心的巨大转变。在第二段中,用"radiant
smile"(灿烂的微笑)和"renewed hope"(重燃的希望)与前文的despair”(绝望)形成鲜明对比,画面感极强,极具感
染力。
主题升华,立意深刻:文章结尾并没有停留在餐馆生意好转的表面,而是通过Shawn的心理活动"knowing that a little
compassion could truly make a big difference”(知道一点小小的同情心真的能带来巨大的改变),将故事的主题从“帮助一个
人”上升到了“传递社会正能量”的高度。这种"how,don't tell"(展示而非讲述)的写作手法,是读后续写获得高分的关
键。

W:Deal!
[text10]
Learning when to say "no"is an important skill in life.Many people struggle with refusing others'requests because they fear
letting them down or appearing unhelpful However,saying"no"at the right time can protect your time,energy,and happiness.
For example,if a friend asks you to help with homework when you are busy studying for an exam,it is okay to say"no".You can
explain that you must complete your tasks first.Likewise,if someone tries to make you do something unsafe or against the rules,
saying"no"shows strength and good judgment.Saying"no"does not mean being selfish.It simply means you stay true to
yourself and you know what really matters.Refuse unreasonable requests politely with simple explanations like,"I'd love to help.
but I can't right now."Remember,you cannot please everyone;you don't have to agree to everything.Knowing when to say"no"
helps you focus on your goals and values,leading to a more balanced and confident life.2026年高考第三次模拟考试(二)

The workshop was a sanctuary of controlled chaos.Sawdust hung in the air like golden dust motes,and the scent of
linseed oil and aged oak was a constant,comforting presence.For Elias,a master woodworker in his twilight years,this
was not just a place of work,but a cathedral of creation.His hands,mapped with the lines of a lifetime of labor,moved
with a certainty that belied his age.
One afternoon,a young woman named Lena entered,her eyes wide with a mixture of apprehension and hope.She
carried a small,broken music box,its intricate wooden casing shattered."My grandmother's,"she explained,her voice
trembling."It's the last thing I have of hers.Can it be fixed?"
Elias took the box,his fingers tracing the delicate inlay work.It was a piece from another era,a testament to a
patience that seemed extinct.He saw not just the damage,but the story it held."It can be fixed,"he said,his voice a low
rumble."But it will take time.We must listen to the wood."
For weeks,Lena visited the workshop.She watched as Elias painstakingly pieced the casing back together,carving
new segments to replace the lost ones.He taught her how to mix stains to match the original patina,how to sand with the
grain,not against it.He spoke of the wood's memory,of how it held the history of the tree it once was.
When the music box was finally restored,its melody was as clear and pure as a mountain stream.Lena held it,tears
in her eyes.But she had received more than a repaired object.She had learned a language of patience and respect,a quiet
philosophy that Elias had passed on like a secret.The workshop,once just a place of repair,had become a bridge between
generations,a place where broken things,and perhaps broken spirits,could be made whole again.
24.What does"a sanctuary of controlled chaos"mean?
A.A dangerous and messy workplace B.A peaceful creative space C.A lonely old workshop D.A crowded noisy room
25.Why is the music box important to Lena?
A.It is very expensive B.It is a gift from parents
C.It is a rare antique D.It is her last memory of grandma
26.What is the most important lesson Lena leamed?
A.Wood carving skills B.Patience and respect for creation C.How to run a business D.How to choose wood
27.What is the story's central message?
A.Old crafts are better than modern tech B.Healing comes from creation and guidance
C.Antiques need protection
D.Young people should learn skills
C
The concept of the"circular economy"is rapidly moving from a niche idea to a central pillar of global sustainability
efforts.In contrast to the traditional "take-make-waste"linear model,a circular economy is designed to be regenerative.It
aims to keep products,components,and materials at their highest utility and value at all times,distinguishing between
technical and biological cycles.
At its core,the circular economy is built on three principles:designing out waste and pollution,keeping products and
materials in use,and regenerating natural systems.This is achieved through strategies like reuse,repair,remanufacturing,
and recycling.For example,a smartphone manufacturer might design a device with modular components that can be
easily replaced,extending its lifespan.At the end of its life,the materials are recovered and used to create new products,
closing the loop.
The economic potential is immense.A report from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation suggests that adopting circular
principles could unlock trillions of dollars in economic growth and create millions of jobs.It fosters innovation,as
companies are pushed to rethink their designs and business models.It also reduces dependency on volatile raw material
markets and mitigates the environmental damage caused by extraction and processing.

However,the transition is not without its hurdles.It requires a fundamental shift in consumer behavior,moving
from a culture of ownership to one of access and service.It also demands unprecedented collaboration across supply
chains,as well as supportive government policies and regulations.Despite these challenges,the momentum is building.
From fashion brands creating clothes from recycled ocean plastic to cities implementing comprehensive zero-waste
programs,the circular economy is no longer a distant dream but a practical and necessary path forward.
28.What is the core goal of circular economy?
A.To follow‘take-make-waste'”
B.To increase production
C.To reduce waste and reuse resources
D.To make products cheaper
29.Which is a typical circular economy example?
A.Using disposable cups
B.Buying new phones yearly
C.Designing modular repairable products D.Sending trash to landfills
30.What economic benefit does circular economy bring?
A.Promote growth and create jobs B.Make all companies earn more C.Reduce innovation need D.Make materials free
31.What is the author's attitude?
A.Doubtful
B.Uncaring
C.Negative】
D.Cautiously optimistic
D
The human brain is a master of prediction.Every moment,it is bombarded with a flood of sensory information.To
make sense of this chaos,it doesn't just react;it anticipates.This predictive processing is a fundamental theory in
modern neuroscience,suggesting that our perception of reality is not a direct reflection of the world,but a"controlled
hallucination"generated by the brain's best guess about the causes of sensory inputs.
This model flips the traditional view of perception on its head.Instead of information flowing from our senses up
to the brain,the brain is constantly sending predictions down to the senses.When there is a mismatch between
prediction and reality-a "prediction error"-the brain either updates its internal model of the world or directs our
attention to resolve the discrepancy.For instance,when you reach for a glass of water,your brain has already predicted
the weight,texture,and temperature.If the glass is unexpectedly hot,the prediction error forces an immediate update,
and you pull your hand back.
This framework has profound implications for understanding a range of neurological and psychiatric conditions.
Some researchers believe that autism may be linked to a heightened sensitivity to prediction errors,leading to a world
that feels overwhelmingly unpredictable and chaotic.Conversely,conditions like schizophrenia might involve a brain
that places too much weight on its internal predictions,leading to hallucinations and delusions that are disconnected
from sensory reality.
Understanding the brain as a prediction machine not only reshapes our view of consciousness but also opens new
avenues for treatment.Therapies could focus on helping individuals recalibrate their predictive models,teaching them
to better navigate the gap between expectation and experience.It suggests that our reality is a delicate dance between
what we expect and what we perceive,a continuous act of creation that defines our very existence.
32.What is our perception according to the theory?
A.An exact copy of the world B.Passive sensory reception C.A controlled guess by the brain D.A random experience
33.What does the brain do with prediction error?
A.Ignore the input B.Update model or focus on mismatch C.Stop sensory information D.Keep original idea
34.How does the theory explain autism?
A.Low sensitivity to errors B.Over-sensitivity to errors C.Over-reliance on internal predictions D.No prediction ability
35.What is the best title?
A.How the brain creates our reality B.History of neuroscience
C.Dangers of mental disorders
D.Ways to improve prediction

The Power of a Growth Mindset
Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on mindsets has revolutionized our understanding of success and learning.
She identified two core mindsets:a fixed mindset and a growth mindset.Individuals with a fixed mindset believe their
intelligence and talents are static traits.36 This fundamental belief shapes their entire approach to challenges,
effort,and feedback.
Those with a growth mindset,on the other hand,believe that their abilities can be developed through dedication
and hard work.37 When faced with a difficult task,they see it as an opportunity to learn and grow,rather than a
threat to their intelligence.They understand that effort is the path to mastery.
_38 For someone with a fixed mindset,failure is a devastating indictment of their abilities.They see failure
as a permanent condition.In contrast,individuals with a growth mindset view failure as a temporary setback.They
analyze what went wrong,leam from the experience,and try again with a new strategy.Failure is not an identity;it is
an event.
Cultivating a growth mindset is a powerful tool for personal and professional development.It fosters resilience,a
love of learning,and a greater sense of purpose.39 Instead of saying"I can't do this,"you can add the word
"yet."This simple linguistic shift acknowledges that the current state is temporary and that improvement is possible
with time and effort.
A growth mindset is not about being perfect.It is about embracing the journey of learning,with all its struggles
and triumphs.By adopting this perspective,you unlock your potential and pave the way for a more fulfilling and
successful life.40
A.They view challenges as threats to be avoided.
B.For them,effort is what makes you smart or talented.
C.It is a skill that can be developed with practice and self-awareness.
D.This perspective also changes how one handles failure.
E.One of the most effective ways to develop this mindset is to change your self-talk.
F.People with a fixed mindset often achieve more than those with a growth mindset.
G.It is the key to navigating life's complexities with confidence and grace.

The old clock tower in the town square had stood silent for twenty years.Its hands were frozen at 11:59,a
permanent monument to a 41 that never became twelve.To the townspeople,it was a familiar landmark,its quiet
presence a part of the background of their lives.But to Elara,a young engineer who had just returned home,it was a
42 begging to be solved.
She had grown up listening to its steady chime,a sound that had marked the rhythm of her childhood.Now,its
silence felt like a loss.She spent her evenings in the town archives,43over old blueprints and maintenance logs.
She discovered that the clock's mechanism,a masterpiece of 19th-century engineering,had 44 worn down.The
final gear,a delicate piece of brass,had cracked,bringing the entire system to a halt.
Elara knew she couldn't restore it 45.She posted a message on the community forum,explaining her findings
and asking for help.To her surprise,the response was 46A retired machinist,Mr.Higgins,offered his workshop.
A local foundry agreed to cast a new gear from her designs.47 the mayor pledged the town's support.
For weeks,the workshop was a hive of activity.Elara worked alongside Mr.Higgins,her modern engineering
knowledge blending with his decades of practical experience.They cleaned,repaired,and rebuilt the ancient
mechanism,piece by piece.48,the task was arduous,but their shared passion kept them going.
On the night of the town's annual festival,the moment arrived.The mayor gave a short speech,and then Elara,with
2026年高考第三次模拟考试(二)英语第5页(共7页)
a trembling hand,released the final lever.A collective hush fell over the crowd.Then,with a deep,resonant groan,the
great clock began to move.The hands inched forward,and 49,they struck twelve.The sound that filled the square
was more than a chime;it was a symphony of community,a50 to what could be achieved when a shared past
inspired a collective future.
The restoration project did more than just fix a broken clock;it 51 a sense of pride and unity in the town.
People who had lived side-by-side for years suddenly found themselves 52 over a common goal.The clock tower,
once a forgotten relic,became a symbol of what they could accomplish together.Elara,who had returned home feeling
like a stranger,now felt she truly 53.The clock's steady tick was no longer just a measure of time,but a heartbeat,
54 the town's renewed spirit.It was a55 reminder that even in silence,the potential for a new beginning always
exists.

Shawn Singleton,a traffic policeman in North Carolina,was sitting in the police car,keeping an eye on the road
ahead.Suddenly,his radar (sounded an alarm:a car up ahead was going at 61 miles per hour in a
45-mile-per-hour zone.He turned on the siren (and blue lights,and then pursued the car at a controlled distance.
The car signaled and slowly pulled over to the side of the road.Shawn stepped out of his car.He walked up to the
driver's window and tapped it gently.The window was rolled down quickly.A woman asked in a defensive and angry
tone,"What did I do?I didn't do anything wrong!"Shawn explained in a calm voice,"Ma'am,my radar indicated you
were speeding just now.Could you please show me your driver's license and vehicle registration?
“That's impossible!I watched the speedometer(速度表)the whole time!”the woman raised her voice.Instead of
arguing,Shawn waited patiently until she handed over her driver's license.Shawn learned from her driver's license
that the woman's name was Katelyn.He said gently,Katelyn,I know you might be angry right now,but I have to
give you a ticket for speeding according to the law."Suddenly,Katelyn's eyes turned red,and her voice shook,"Can't
I have a bad day?
Shawn looked at Katelyn's teary eyes and tightly pressed lips.He guessed something unpleasant must have
happened to her."Katelyn,"he asked,"it seems like you're carrying something much heavier than a speeding ticket.
Would you like to talk about it?
Katelyn looked into his eyes-no longer the strict look of an officer,but filled with a quiet understanding.She
explained that she owned a small family restaurant,a place she had poured her heart and savings into.But lately,it felt
like everything was falling apart.Despite her best efforts,rising costs and slow seasons had driven customers away.
Her dream was close to slipping away.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After hearing Katelyn's story,Shawn decided to issue a different kind of ticket.

The workshop was a sanctuary of controlled chaos. Sawdust hung in the air like golden dust motes, and the scent of linseed oil and aged oak was a constant, comforting presence. For Elias, a master woodworker in his twilight years, this was not just a place of work, but a cathedral of creation. His hands, mapped with the lines of a lifetime of labor, moved with a certainty that belied his age.
One afternoon, a young woman named Lena entered, her eyes wide with a mixture of apprehension and hope. She carried a small, broken music box, its intricate wooden casing shattered. "My grandmother's," she explained, her voice trembling. "It's the last thing I have of hers. Can it be fixed?"
Elias took the box, his fingers tracing the delicate inlay work. It was a piece from another era, a testament to a patience that seemed extinct. He saw not just the damage, but the story it held. "It can be fixed," he said, his voice a low rumble. "But it will take time. We must listen to the wood."
For weeks, Lena visited the workshop. She watched as Elias painstakingly pieced the casing back together, carving new segments to replace the lost ones. He taught her how to mix stains to match the original patina, how to sand with the grain, not against it. He spoke of the wood's memory, of how it held the history of the tree it once was.
When the music box was finally restored, its melody was as clear and pure as a mountain stream. Lena held it, tears in her eyes. But she had received more than a repaired object. She had learned a language of patience and respect, a quiet philosophy that Elias had passed on like a secret. The workshop, once just a place of repair, had become a bridge between generations, a place where broken things, and perhaps broken spirits, could be made whole again.
24.What does“a sanctuary of controlled chaos”mean?
A.A dangerous and messy workplace B.A peaceful creative space C.A lonely old workshop D.A crowded noisy room
25.Why is the music box important to Lena?
A.It is very expensive B.It is a gift from parents C.It is a rare antique D.It is her last memory of grandma
26.What is the most important lesson Lena learned?
A.Wood carving skills B.Patience and respect for creation C.How to run a business D.How to choose wood
27.What is the story's central message?
A.Old crafts are better than modern tech B.Healing comes from creation and guidance
C.Antiques need protection D.Young people should learn skills
C
The concept of the "circular economy" is rapidly moving from a niche idea to a central pillar of global sustainability efforts. In contrast to the traditional "take-make-waste" linear model, a circular economy is designed to be regenerative. It aims to keep products, components, and materials at their highest utility and value at all times, distinguishing between technical and biological cycles.
At its core, the circular economy is built on three principles: designing out waste and pollution, keeping products and materials in use, and regenerating natural systems. This is achieved through strategies like reuse, repair, remanufacturing, and recycling. For example, a smartphone manufacturer might design a device with modular components that can be easily replaced, extending its lifespan. At the end of its life, the materials are recovered and used to create new products, closing the loop.
The economic potential is immense. A report from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation suggests that adopting circular principles could unlock trillions of dollars in economic growth and create millions of jobs. It fosters innovation, as companies are pushed to rethink their designs and business models. It also reduces dependency on volatile raw material markets and mitigates the environmental damage caused by extraction and processing.

However, the transition is not without its hurdles. It requires a fundamental shift in consumer behavior, moving from a culture of ownership to one of access and service. It also demands unprecedented collaboration across supply chains, as well as supportive government policies and regulations. Despite these challenges, the momentum is building. From fashion brands creating clothes from recycled ocean plastic to cities implementing comprehensive zero-waste programs, the circular economy is no longer a distant dream but a practical and necessary path forward.
28.What is the core goal of circular economy?
A.To follow“take-make-waste” B.To increase production
C.To reduce waste and reuse resources D.To make products cheaper
29.Which is a typical circular economy example?
A.Using disposable cups B.Buying new phones yearly

30.What economic benefit does circular economy bring?
A.Promote growth and create jobs B.Make all companies earn more C.Reduce innovation need D.Make materials free
31.What is the author's attitude?
A.Doubtful B.Uncaring C.Negative D.Cautiously optimistic
D
The human brain is a master of prediction. Every moment, it is bombarded with a flood of sensory information. To make sense of this chaos, it doesn't just react; it anticipates. This predictive processing is a fundamental theory in modern neuroscience, suggesting that our perception of reality is not a direct reflection of the world, but a "controlled hallucination" generated by the brain's best guess about the causes of sensory inputs.
This model flips the traditional view of perception on its head. Instead of information flowing from our senses up to the brain, the brain is constantly sending predictions down to the senses. When there is a mismatch between prediction and reality—a "prediction error"—the brain either updates its internal model of the world or directs our attention to resolve the discrepancy. For instance, when you reach for a glass of water, your brain has already predicted the weight, texture, and temperature. If the glass is unexpectedly hot, the prediction error forces an immediate update, and you pull your hand back.
This framework has profound implications for understanding a range of neurological and psychiatric conditions. Some researchers believe that autism may be linked to a heightened sensitivity to prediction errors, leading to a world that feels overwhelmingly unpredictable and chaotic. Conversely, conditions like schizophrenia might involve a brain that places too much weight on its internal predictions, leading to hallucinations and delusions that are disconnected from sensory reality.
Understanding the brain as a prediction machine not only reshapes our view of consciousness but also opens new avenues for treatment. Therapies could focus on helping individuals recalibrate their predictive models, teaching them to better navigate the gap between expectation and experience. It suggests that our reality is a delicate dance between what we expect and what we perceive, a continuous act of creation that defines our very existence.
32.What is our perception according to the theory?
A.An exact copy of the world B.Passive sensory reception C.A controlled guess by the brain D.A random experience
33.What does the brain do with prediction error?
A.Ignore the input B.Update model or focus on mismatch C.Stop sensory information D.Keep original idea
34.How does the theory explain autism?
A.Low sensitivity to errors B.Over-sensitivity to errors C.Over-reliance on internal predictions D.No prediction ability
35.What is the best title?
A.How the brain creates our reality B.History of neuroscience
C.Dangers of mental disorders D.Ways to improve prediction

The Power of a Growth Mindset
Psychologist Carol Dweck's research on mindsets has revolutionized our understanding of success and learning. She identified two core mindsets: a fixed mindset and a growth mindset. Individuals with a fixed mindset believe their intelligence and talents are static traits. 36 This fundamental belief shapes their entire approach to challenges, effort, and feedback.
Those with a growth mindset, on the other hand, believe that their abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. 37 When faced with a difficult task, they see it as an opportunity to learn and grow, rather than a threat to their intelligence. They understand that effort is the path to mastery.
38 For someone with a fixed mindset, failure is a devastating indictment of their abilities. They see failure as a permanent condition. In contrast, individuals with a growth mindset view failure as a temporary setback. They analyze what went wrong, learn from the experience, and try again with a new strategy. Failure is not an identity; it is an event.
Cultivating a growth mindset is a powerful tool for personal and professional development. It fosters resilience, a love of learning, and a greater sense of purpose. 39 Instead of saying "I can't do this," you can add the word "yet." This simple linguistic shift acknowledges that the current state is temporary and that improvement is possible with time and effort.
A growth mindset is not about being perfect. It is about embracing the journey of learning, with all its struggles and triumphs. By adopting this perspective, you unlock your potential and pave the way for a more fulfilling and successful life. 40
A.They view challenges as threats to be avoided.
B.For them,effort is what makes you smart or talented.
C.It is a skill that can be developed with practice and self-awareness.
D.This perspective also changes how one handles failure.
E.One of the most effective ways to develop this mindset is to change your self-talk.
F.People with a fixed mindset often achieve more than those with a growth mindset.
G.It is the key to navigating life's complexities with confidence and grace.

The old clock tower in the town square had stood silent for twenty years. Its hands were frozen at 11:59, a permanent monument to a 41 that never became twelve. To the townspeople, it was a familiar landmark, its quiet presence a part of the background of their lives. But to Elara, a young engineer who had just returned home, it was a 42 begging to be solved.
She had grown up listening to its steady chime, a sound that had marked the rhythm of her childhood. Now, its silence felt like a loss. She spent her evenings in the town archives, 43 over old blueprints and maintenance logs. She discovered that the clock's mechanism, a masterpiece of 19th-century engineering, had 44 worn down. The final gear, a delicate piece of brass, had cracked, bringing the entire system to a halt.
Elara knew she couldn't restore it 45 .She posted a message on the community forum, explaining her findings and asking for help. To her surprise, the response was 46 .A retired machinist, Mr. Higgins, offered his workshop. A local foundry agreed to cast a new gear from her designs. 47 the mayor pledged the town's support.
For weeks, the workshop was a hive of activity. Elara worked alongside Mr. Higgins, her modern engineering knowledge blending with his decades of practical experience. They cleaned, repaired, and rebuilt the ancient mechanism, piece by piece. 48 ,the task was arduous, but their shared passion kept them going.
On the night of the town's annual festival, the moment arrived. The mayor gave a short speech,and then Elara,with
2026年高考第三次模拟考试(二)英语 第5页(共7页)
a trembling hand, released the final lever. A collective hush fell over the crowd. Then, with a deep, resonant groan, the great clock began to move. The hands inched forward, and 49 , they struck twelve. The sound that filled the square was more than a chime; it was a symphony of community, a 50 to what could be achieved when a shared past inspired a collective future.
The restoration project did more than just fix a broken clock; it 51 a sense of pride and unity in the town. People who had lived side-by-side for years suddenly found themselves 52 over a common goal. The clock tower, once a forgotten relic, became a symbol of what they could accomplish together. Elara, who had returned home feeling like a stranger, now felt she truly 53 .The clock's steady tick was no longer just a measure of time, but a heartbeat, 54 the town's renewed spirit. It was a 55 reminder that even in silence, the potential for a new beginning always exists.

Shawn Singleton, a traffic policeman in North Carolina, was sitting in the police car, keeping an eye on the road ahead. Suddenly, his radar (雷达) sounded an alarm: a car up ahead was going at 61 miles per hour in a 45-mile-per-hour zone. He turned on the siren (警笛) and blue lights, and then pursued the car at a controlled distance.
The car signaled and slowly pulled over to the side of the road. Shawn stepped out of his car. He walked up to the driver’s window and tapped it gently. The window was rolled down quickly. A woman asked in a defensive and angry tone, “What did I do? I didn’t do anything wrong!” Shawn explained in a calm voice, “Ma’am, my radar indicated you were speeding just now. Could you please show me your driver’s license and vehicle registration?”
“That’s impossible! I watched the speedometer (速度表) the whole time!” the woman raised her voice. Instead of arguing, Shawn waited patiently until she handed over her driver’s license. Shawn learned from her driver’s license that the woman’s name was Katelyn. He said gently, “Katelyn, I know you might be angry right now, but I have to give you a ticket for speeding according to the law.” Suddenly, Katelyn’s eyes turned red, and her voice shook, “Can’t I have a bad day?”
Shawn looked at Katelyn’s teary eyes and tightly pressed lips. He guessed something unpleasant must have happened to her. “Katelyn,” he asked, “it seems like you’re carrying something much heavier than a speeding ticket. Would you like to talk about it?”
Katelyn looked into his eyes — no longer the strict look of an officer, but filled with a quiet understanding. She explained that she owned a small family restaurant, a place she had poured her heart and savings into. But lately, it felt like everything was falling apart. Despite her best efforts, rising costs and slow seasons had driven customers away. Her dream was close to slipping away.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Many people struggle with refusing others requests because they fear letting them down or appearing unhelpful. However, saying no at the right time can protect your time, energy and happiness. For example, if a friend ask you to help with homework when you are busy studying foreign exam, IT is okay to say no, you can explain that you must complete your tasks first. Likewise, if someone tries to make you do something unsafe or against the rules, saying no show strength and good judgment. Saying no does not mean being selfish IT simply means you stay true to yourself and you know what really matters. Refuse unreasonable requests politely with simple explanations like, i'd love to help, but I can't right now remember, you cannot please everyone. You don't have to agree to everything.
