The biggest is whether the milk has been through pasteurization (巴氏杀菌法), which is defined as “the process of heating every drop of milk to destroy all human pathogens (病原体)”. How long raw milk lasts “Because raw milk has not gone through a heat step to reduce the bacterial count, it will break down and go bad more quickly,” says Amit Shah, senior director of quality at Maple Hill Creamery in New York. According to Alex O’Brien, a food safety and quality organizer at the University of Wisconsin Center for Dairy Research, it’d be lucky to get seven days of drinkability with raw milk. Until the early 1900s, milk was frequently the vehicle for foodborne illnesses. That’s why selling raw milk to the general public is illegal in many situations and states. How long pasteurized milk lasts Pasteurized milk generally lasts three weeks to a month after processing, provided it’s properly refrigerated. That’s regardless of whether it is nonfat, low fat, whole or without milk sugar. Experts say unopened milk will last two to five days past its sell-by date, though it might be fine for a week. They recommend drinking an opened container of milk as soon as possible (say, within a few days) for the freshest taste. How long long-life milk lasts Buy long-life milk, and your container will last even longer — anywhere from 30 to 90 days when stored properly and unopened. This type of milk goes through ultra-high temperature pasteurization and is packaged in clean containers. “Long-life milk is shelf stable and does not need refrigeration until opened,” an expert says. 1. What is a problem with raw milk? A. Its potential health risks. B. Its high cost of production. C. Its unusual taste and mouthfeel. D. Its limited nutritional value. 2. What is a unique feature of long-life milk? A. It is packaged in traditional ways. B. It requires no cooling before opening. C. It is processed at low temperatures. D. It has a strict shelf life of seven days. 3. What is the purpose of the text? A. To show benefits of drinking different milk. B. To explain nutrition standards for milk products. C. To illustrate factors influencing the shelf life of milk. D. To review the history of milk processing techniques. B As a librarian, I am often asked a question: “Do audiobooks (有声书) qualify as reading?” Many people don’t think so. There’s a certain pride — even superiority — in being well read. Saying you’ve only listened to a book often sounds like an apology. I used to agree. Then, years ago in an airport bar, I saw a man using a robotic voice on his phone to read text aloud at remarkable speed. At first, I found it strange; only when I realized he was blind did the scene shift. He was fully absorbed, reading as naturally as I did with my eyes. Because I have dyslexia (诵读困难), reading has never come easy. After that encounter, I tried the same feature on my phone. It was a revealing moment. For the first time, ideas flowed smoothly, and my attention did not wander. That moment sent me down a new path. People read less for pleasure now, yet audiobook use rises. Part of the confusion lies in how we view reading. It starts with decoding — linking letters to sounds and meaning — but once automatic, the brain uses the same language network to process words, whether through eyes or ears. Rapt listening, researchers note, a state in which listeners give their full attention and forget everything else, can match print comprehension — and for some readers, even better. Yet, in many classrooms, students record only pages read, not minutes listened, as if print alone builds literacy. But young people reading in any format tend to develop stronger skills and often continue reading as they grow. I know it firsthand. That brief airport encounter reshaped me. Now I often listen while following text on my screen, moving easily among formats. I no longer worry about the method. I am simply reading — and so are millions of others who read with both eyes and ears. What matters is that the words take root. 4. What led the author to try audio reading? A. An eye-opening moment at an airport. B. Professional advice from other librarians. C. Long-term difficulty with dyslexia alone. D. A wish to improve his reading speed. 5. What does the underlined word “rapt” in paragraph 3 mean? A. Selective. B. Relaxed. C. Focused. D. Passive. 6. What can we learn about the classroom practices in paragraph 4? A. They encourage diverse learning. B. They emphasize creative methods. C. They overlook students’ preferences. D. They fail to promote literacy broadly. 7. What is implied in the last paragraph? A. Listening and print serve separate roles. B. A new habit can open new reading paths. C. Different methods shape reading choices. D. Understanding matters more than the format. C When people think about improving their health, they usually focus on diet and exercise. However, research suggests that spending time on friendships can be just as powerful. Feeling supported and cared for helps protect people from serious diseases such as heart problems and also reduces daily stress. Strong relationships are also linked to greater creativity, higher job satisfaction, and a lower risk of burnout. Therefore, social connection is a basic need that quietly supports both physical and mental well-being. If relationships are so important, why do many people struggle to build them? Psychology has identified a major reason called the “liking gap”. Studies by Erica Boothby and Gus Cooney found that after short conversations, we usually believe others like us less than they actually do. Because of this misunderstanding, we may avoid contacting new friends again, wrongly assuming we made a poor impression. This silent doubt keeps many potential friendships from growing. To break through these fears, the key is to help others feel truly understood. When people sense that someone shares their thoughts or understands their feelings, trust begins to form. This feeling does not require perfect words. It comes from clear responses, honest reactions, and a willingness to show that we are really listening. Once this sense of mutual (相互的) understanding is built, the fear of rejection slowly disappears. Based on this idea, simple actions can make a real difference. Try repeating part of what someone has said, showing agreement, or sharing a small personal experience. These steps often encourage the other person to open up as well. Many people also hold back compliments (表扬) or worries because they think it will feel awkward, but honesty and kind words are usually welcomed. Start small, such as asking a classmate about their day or thanking a colleague for help. With regular practice, social interaction becomes more natural, and strong, healthy relationships begin to grow. 8. What can be learned about social connection from paragraph 1? A. It is essential for human health. B. It primarily benefits one’s career. C. It is a secondary life requirement. D. It serves as an alternative for exercise. 9. What does the “liking gap” mainly lead to? A. Misjudgment of others’ opinions. B. Hesitation in forming new connections. C. Feelings of embarrassment and anger. D. Unnecessary conflicts between people. 10. What is the key to building trust in relationships? A. Lowering the risk of being rejected. B. Using polite and professional language. C. Reducing one’s true reactions and feelings. D. Showing genuine attention and understanding. 11. What message does the author convey in the last paragraph? A. Complex skills lead to social success. B. Private stories require careful sharing. C. Simple acts build strong connections. D. Regular praise ensures deep friendship. D For people with severe paralysis (瘫痪), communication can be extremely difficult. Some may still move their eyes, but many cannot speak or use their hands. To address this problem, scientists have been developing brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). In a recent advance, researchers tested a new BCI system that allowed users with paralysis to type more quickly, offering new hope for more natural communication. Earlier BCIs made communication possible, but not efficient. In many cases, users had to move a cursor (光标) across a screen and choose letters one by one. This method worked, yet it was often too slow for normal conversation. Researchers therefore wanted a system that could operate more like everyday typing. In a recent study, a research team tested a new BCI keyboard that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize a user’s intended finger or hand movements. The system linked patterns of brain activity to letters on a standard keyboard. Two people with paralysis took part in the study by attempting to move their fingers, even though no actual movement occurred. One of them reached a typing speed of 22 words per minute, close to the speed of ordinary smartphone texting. The advance matters because communication is not only about producing words, but also about joining a conversation at the right time. A person who types too slowly may struggle to take part naturally in social interaction. Some users can rely on eye-tracking systems, but these are often slower and may not work well for everyone. A faster BCI, therefore, could make communication feel more direct and more natural. Still, the technology is not ready for wide use. The study included only two participants, so further testing is needed. In addition, the device requires surgery to place chips (芯片) in the brain, which brings risks. It also needs to be adjusted before each use. Even so, researchers believe the results show that brain-based typing is moving beyond the laboratory and getting closer to practical communication in everyday life. 12. What was a disadvantage of earlier BCIs? A. They responded too slowly. B. They relied on spoken language. C. They were expensive to produce. D. They required users to move hands. 13. What can be inferred about the new BCI system from paragraph 3? A. It beats smartphone texting in speed. B. It depends on users’ basic hand control. C. It helps patients recover muscle functions. D. It translates mental intentions into text. 14. Why is faster typing considered important? A. It reduces the need for surgery. B. It restores actual finger movements. C. It allows more natural communication. D. It improves the quality of smartphones. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. BCI Systems: From Lab Experiments to Practical Risks B. Brain-based Typing: A Step Towards Natural Communication C. Brain-based Typing: The Future of Smartphone Texting D. BCI Systems: A Promising Breakthrough in Paralysis Recovery 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Can just ten minutes of journaling really make a difference? The answer is yes. ____16____ When you spend just ten minutes journaling, you give your mind a place to unload everything that has been circling in your head. Instead of letting worries take over, you put them on paper where you can see them. It’s like clearing a messy desk. Once the mess is gone, your mind feels quieter and your focus returns. ____17____ Many people describe feeling lighter and calmer after they write. That sense of control is especially important when life feels busy or unpredictable. Journaling also strengthens self-awareness. As days pass, patterns begin to appear. You may notice that every Monday feels heavy, or that certain conversations leave you exhausted. This awareness gives you choices. You can prepare yourself, set boundaries, or change how you react. ____18____ Sleep is another area where journaling can work wonders. Have you ever noticed that your mind becomes most active when the lights go out? That is your brain holding on to unfinished thoughts. ____19____ Your mind no longer has to guard them. Studies show that people who journal at night fall asleep faster and enjoy deeper rest. ____20____ When you look back at old pages, you see worries that once felt too heavy to handle now seem small. You notice your progress. You see growth. And that reminder — that you are changing, step by step — is one of the strongest sources of motivation you can have. A. Small habits, if repeated daily, lead to real change. B. Journaling can also become a record of your journey. C. But when you write them down before bed, you release them. D. A fixed journaling time, like before bed, suits most people best. E. Having regular conversations with your friends helps you feel relaxed. F. This simple “mental clean-up” is one of the fastest ways to reduce stress. G. Over time, these small adjustments help you feel more emotionally balanced. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 For sixteen years, a mysteriously (神秘地) decorated Christmas tree on a remote road of 90 in Montana puzzled travelers.

It is a place defined by a unique spirit of community, where artists, musicians, and people from all walks of life come together, creating an atmosphere of support and kindness. This sense of belonging is what makes Asheville special, a home where people look out for one another. In 2005, Molly and Tom Smith made an adventurous attempt, moving from busy San Francisco to Asheville with their young daughter, Aria. The transition was challenging. Shortly after arriving, feeling uncertain, they attended a local folk festival. Molly watched as little Aria immediately ran to hug another girl, and the two spent the evening dancing freely in the diverse crowd. “They spent the entire night dancing in each other’s arms,” Molly remembered. “Surrounding them was a community square dance. I thought, this is why we’re here.” This warmth made them determined to stay. The kindness they experienced as newcomers was heartwarming. When they faced challenges of settling down, neighbors they had just met showed up unasked to help them unpack boxes and shared home-cooked meals. This warm welcome made Molly feel she had found a true home. Inspired by this supportive environment, the Smiths eventually opened an Indian restaurant, Chai Pani, which became a beloved local spot. And it was their way of contributing to the town that had embraced (接纳) them. For nearly two decades, life in Asheville was peaceful. But on September 27, 2024, Hurricane Helene struck. The storm hit with terrible wind and heavy rain, turning gentle streams into wild rivers that destroyed homes and roads. Asheville awoke to absolute ruin. Trees and power lines were down everywhere. The once lively River Arts District was submerged (淹没) under 20 feet of water. All facilities — power, cell service, running water — were gone. The town was completely cut off from the outside world. However, the Smiths’ restaurant, Chai Pani, survived. 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。 Faced with this crisis, the Smiths knew they had to act. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by the Smiths’ generosity, other people took actions as well. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年茂名市高三年级第二次综合测试 英语试卷 试卷共8页，卷面满分120分。考试用时120分钟。 注意事项： 1．答卷前，考生务必用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔将自己的姓名、考生号、考场号和座位号填写在答题卡上。将条形码横贴在答题卡右上角“条形码粘贴处”。 2．作答选择题时，选出每小题答案后，用2B铅笔在答题卡上对应题目选项的答案信息点涂黑；如需改动，用橡皮擦干净后，再选涂其他答案，答案不能答在试卷上。 3．非选择题必须用黑色字迹的钢笔或签字笔作答，答案必须写在答题卡各题目指定区域内相应位置上；如需改动，先划掉原来的答案，然后再写上新的答案；不准使用铅笔和涂改液。不按以上要求作答的答案无效。 4．考生必须保持答题卡的整洁。考试结束后，请将答题卡交回。 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中,选出最佳选项。 A There are a lot of factors that affect how long milk is good for after the sell-by date.

At first, I found it strange; only when I realized he was blind did the scene shift. He was fully absorbed, reading as naturally as I did with my eyes.(然而，多年前在机场的一家酒吧里，我看到一个男人正在用手机上的语音功能以惊人的速度大声朗读文字。起初，我觉得很奇怪；直到我意识到他是个盲人，场面才发生了变化。他全神贯注，就像我用眼睛看一样自然。)”、“Because I have dyslexia (诵读困难), reading has never come easy. After that encounter, I tried the same feature on my phone. It was a revealing moment. For the first time, ideas flowed smoothly, and my attention did not wander.(因为我有诵读困难的毛病，所以阅读对我来说从来都不是一件容易的事。那次经历之后，我在手机上也尝试了同样的功能。那是一个非常有意义的时刻。我第一次发现，思绪能够流畅地涌现出来，而且我的注意力也没有分散)”以及第三段“That moment sent me down a new path.(那一刻让我踏上了新的征程)”可知，促使作者尝试音频阅读的原因是在机场的一次令人大开眼界的经历。故选A。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“a state in which listenersgive their full attention and forget everything else(是一种听者全神贯注、忘记其他一切的状态)”可知，Rapt listening指全神贯注的倾听，故划线词Rapt意思是“全神贯注的，专注的”。故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Yet, in many classrooms, students record only pages read, not minutes listened, as if print alone builds literacy. But young people reading in any format tend to develop stronger skills and often continue reading as they grow.(然而，在许多教室里，学生们只记录阅读的页数，而不记录所听的分钟数，似乎仅仅是阅读文字就能培养出阅读能力。但无论以何种形式阅读，年轻人往往都能培养出更强的阅读技能，并且在成长过程中往往会继续阅读)”可知，课堂实践未能广泛促进阅读能力的提升。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“What matters is that the words take root.(重要的是，这些文字能够深入人心)”可知，理解比形式更重要。故选D。 C When people think about improving their health, they usually focus on diet and exercise.

(因此，社交联系是一种基本需求，在潜移默化中支撑着人们的身心健康。)” 可知，社交联系对人类健康至关重要。故选A。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第二段“Psychology has identified a major reason called the “liking gap”. Studies by Erica Boothby and Gus Cooney found that after short conversations, we usually believe others like us less than they actually do. (心理学界已经证实了一个被称为“好感差距”的重要原因。Erica Boothby和Gus Cooney的研究发现：在短暂交谈后，我们往往会低估别人对自己的好感程度。)”及“Because of this misunderstanding, we may avoid contacting new friends again, wrongly assuming we made a poor impression. (由于这种误解，我们可能会避免再次联系新朋友，错误地认为自己给别人留下了不好的印象。)” 可知，“好感差距”主要导致人们在建立新的社交联系时犹豫不决。故选B。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“To break through these fears, the key is to help others feel truly understood. (要克服这些恐惧，关键是让他人感受到真正的理解。)” 和“It comes from clear responses, honest reactions, and a willingness to show that we are really listening. (它来自清晰的回应、真诚的反应以及愿意表现出我们在认真倾听。)” 可知，建立信任的关键是表现出真诚的关注和理解。故选D。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据原文最后一段“Based on this idea, simple actions can make a real difference. (基于这一观点，简单的行动就能带来真正的改变。)”及“With regular practice, social interaction becomes more natural, and strong, healthy relationships begin to grow. (通过不断练习，社交互动会变得更加自然，牢固而健康的人际关系也会逐渐建立起来。)” 可知，作者在最后一段传达的信息是简单的行为可以建立牢固的联系。故选C。 D For people with severe paralysis (瘫痪), communication can be extremely difficult. Some may still move their eyes, but many cannot speak or use their hands. To address this problem, scientists have been developing brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). In a recent advance, researchers tested a new BCI system that allowed users with paralysis to type more quickly, offering new hope for more natural communication. Earlier BCIs made communication possible, but not efficient. In many cases, users had to move a cursor (光标) across a screen and choose letters one by one. This method worked, yet it was often too slow for normal conversation. Researchers therefore wanted a system that could operate more like everyday typing. In a recent study, a research team tested a new BCI keyboard that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize a user’s intended finger or hand movements. The system linked patterns of brain activity to letters on a standard keyboard. Two people with paralysis took part in the study by attempting to move their fingers, even though no actual movement occurred. One of them reached a typing speed of 22 words per minute, close to the speed of ordinary smartphone texting. The advance matters because communication is not only about producing words, but also about joining a conversation at the right time. A person who types too slowly may struggle to take part naturally in social interaction. Some users can rely on eye-tracking systems, but these are often slower and may not work well for everyone. A faster BCI, therefore, could make communication feel more direct and more natural. Still, the technology is not ready for wide use. The study included only two participants, so further testing is needed. In addition, the device requires surgery to place chips (芯片) in the brain, which brings risks. It also needs to be adjusted before each use. Even so, researchers believe the results show that brain-based typing is moving beyond the laboratory and getting closer to practical communication in everyday life. 12. What was a disadvantage of earlier BCIs? A. They responded too slowly. B. They relied on spoken language. C. They were expensive to produce. D. They required users to move hands. 13. What can be inferred about the new BCI system from paragraph 3? A. It beats smartphone texting in speed. B. It depends on users’ basic hand control. C. It helps patients recover muscle functions. D. It translates mental intentions into text. 14. Why is faster typing considered important? A. It reduces the need for surgery. B. It restores actual finger movements. C. It allows more natural communication. D. It improves the quality of smartphones. 15. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. BCI Systems: From Lab Experiments to Practical Risks B. Brain-based Typing: A Step Towards Natural Communication C. Brain-based Typing: The Future of Smartphone Texting D. BCI Systems: A Promising Breakthrough in Paralysis Recovery 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. C 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。科学家研发新型脑机接口（BCI），通过AI捕捉瘫痪患者大脑意念实现快速打字，虽未广泛应用，但为其更自然交流带来新希望。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In many cases, users had to move a cursor (光标) across a screen and choose letters one by one. This method worked, yet it was often too slow for normal conversation.(在很多情况下，用户需要将光标移动到屏幕上，然后逐个选择字母。这种方法虽然可行，但通常在正常对话中速度太慢了)”可知，早期的脑机接口的反应速度太慢了。故选A。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“In a recent study, a research team tested a new BCI keyboard that uses artificial intelligence (AI) to recognize a user’s intended finger or hand movements. The system linked patterns of brain activity to letters on a standard keyboard.(在最近的一项研究中，一个研究团队测试了一种新型的脑机接口键盘，该键盘利用人工智能（AI）来识别用户想要做出的手指或手部动作。该系统将大脑活动的模式与标准键盘上的字母进行了关联)”可知，新的人机交互系统将思维意图转化为文字。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“A faster BCI, therefore, could make communication feel more direct and more natural.(因此，速度更快的脑机接口技术能够使交流过程显得更加直接和自然)”可知，更快的打字速度被视为重要的一项能力是因为它能促进更自然的交流。故选C。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In a recent advance, researchers tested a new BCI system that allowed users with paralysis to type more quickly, offering new hope for more natural communication.(在最近的一项进展中，研究人员测试了一种新的脑机接口系统，该系统能让瘫痪患者更快地进行打字操作，为实现更自然的交流带来了新的希望)”结合文章说明了科学家研发新型脑机接口（BCI），通过AI捕捉瘫痪患者大脑意念实现快速打字，虽未广泛应用，但为其更自然交流带来新希望。可知，B选项“基于大脑的打字：迈向自然交流的一步”最符合文章标题。故选B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Can just ten minutes of journaling really make a difference? The answer is yes. ____16____ When you spend just ten minutes journaling, you give your mind a place to unload everything that has been circling in your head. Instead of letting worries take over, you put them on paper where you can see them. It’s like clearing a messy desk. Once the mess is gone, your mind feels quieter and your focus returns. ____17____ Many people describe feeling lighter and calmer after they write. That sense of control is especially important when life feels busy or unpredictable. Journaling also strengthens self-awareness. As days pass, patterns begin to appear. You may notice that every Monday feels heavy, or that certain conversations leave you exhausted. This awareness gives you choices. You can prepare yourself, set boundaries, or change how you react. ____18____ Sleep is another area where journaling can work wonders. Have you ever noticed that your mind becomes most active when the lights go out? That is your brain holding on to unfinished thoughts. ____19____ Your mind no longer has to guard them. Studies show that people who journal at night fall asleep faster and enjoy deeper rest. ____20____ When you look back at old pages, you see worries that once felt too heavy to handle now seem small. You notice your progress. You see growth. And that reminder — that you are changing, step by step — is one of the strongest sources of motivation you can have. A. Small habits, if repeated daily, lead to real change. B. Journaling can also become a record of your journey. C. But when you write them down before bed, you release them. D. A fixed journaling time, like before bed, suits most people best. E. Having regular conversations with your friends helps you feel relaxed. F. This simple “mental clean-up” is one of the fastest ways to reduce stress. G. Over time, these small adjustments help you feel more emotionally balanced. 【答案】16. A 17. F 18. G 19. C 20. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了每天仅十分钟的日记写作对减压、提升自我认知、改善睡眠和记录个人成长等方面的积极作用。 【16题详解】 根据前文“Can just ten minutes of journaling really make a difference? The answer is yes.

(这种简单的“大脑清理”是缓解压力最快的方法之一。)”符合题意。故选F。 【18题详解】 根据前文“You can prepare yourself, set boundaries, or change how you react. (你可以做好准备、设定界限或改变自己的反应方式。)”可知，空前介绍写日记带来的一些小调整；故推知：空处应说明这些小调整带来的结果；选项G“Over time, these small adjustments help you feel more emotionally balanced. (久而久之，这些小调整会帮助你在情绪上感到更平衡。)”符合题意。故选G。 【19题详解】 根据前文“That is your brain holding on to unfinished thoughts. (那是因为你的大脑一直记着未完成的想法。)”和后文“Your mind no longer has to guard them. (你的大脑不再需要惦记它们。)”可知空前解释睡前大脑活跃的原因，空后说明大脑不再惦记心事；故推知：空处应说明释放心事的具体办法；选项C“But when you write them down before bed, you release them. (但如果你睡前把它们写下来，就能释放这些心事。)”符合题意。故选C。 【20题详解】 根据后文“When you look back at old pages, you see worries that once felt too heavy to handle now seem small. (当你回顾以前的日记，会发现曾经觉得难以承受的烦恼如今显得微不足道。)”可知空后介绍翻看日记能看到自己的成长与变化；故推知：空处应总述日记可以记录成长历程；选项B“Journaling can also become a record of your journey. (日记也可以成为你人生历程的记录。)”符合题意。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 For sixteen years, a mysteriously (神秘地) decorated Christmas tree on a remote road of 90 in Montana puzzled travelers.

It is a place defined by a unique spirit of community, where artists, musicians, and people from all walks of life come together, creating an atmosphere of support and kindness. This sense of belonging is what makes Asheville special, a home where people look out for one another. In 2005, Molly and Tom Smith made an adventurous attempt, moving from busy San Francisco to Asheville with their young daughter, Aria. The transition was challenging. Shortly after arriving, feeling uncertain, they attended a local folk festival. Molly watched as little Aria immediately ran to hug another girl, and the two spent the evening dancing freely in the diverse crowd. “They spent the entire night dancing in each other’s arms,” Molly remembered. “Surrounding them was a community square dance. I thought, this is why we’re here.” This warmth made them determined to stay. The kindness they experienced as newcomers was heartwarming. When they faced challenges of settling down, neighbors they had just met showed up unasked to help them unpack boxes and shared home-cooked meals. This warm welcome made Molly feel she had found a true home. Inspired by this supportive environment, the Smiths eventually opened an Indian restaurant, Chai Pani, which became a beloved local spot. And it was their way of contributing to the town that had embraced (接纳) them. For nearly two decades, life in Asheville was peaceful. But on September 27, 2024, Hurricane Helene struck. The storm hit with terrible wind and heavy rain, turning gentle streams into wild rivers that destroyed homes and roads. Asheville awoke to absolute ruin. Trees and power lines were down everywhere. The once lively River Arts District was submerged (淹没) under 20 feet of water. All facilities — power, cell service, running water — were gone. The town was completely cut off from the outside world. However, the Smiths’ restaurant, Chai Pani, survived. 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。 Faced with this crisis, the Smiths knew they had to act. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Encouraged by the Smiths’ generosity, other people took actions as well. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考答案： Faced with this crisis, the Smiths knew they had to act. There was no time to lose. They quickly reopened Chai Pani, using their remaining gas and a small generator to fire up the kitchen. They began serving free, warm Indian meals to every displaced neighbor, exhausted rescue worker, and anyone seeking comfort. Their restaurant transformed into a vital hub — a temporary shelter, a distribution point for scarce supplies, and a beacon of hope where people could reconnect and find emotional support in the aftermath of the storm.
