1.Why is the woman concerned about the popularity of a social media app?
A.It’s spreading false information.
B.It’s affecting students’ concentration.
C.It’s replacing face-to-face interaction.
【答案】B
【原文】W: Have you noticed how obsessed teenagers are with “QuickReel”? They spend hours scrolling through short videos.
M: It’s just entertainment. Every generation has its trends.
W: But studies show the constant stream of quick content is reducing attention spans. Students find it harder to focus on reading or complex tasks. It’s a real cognitive shift.
M: You think it’s actually changing how their brains work?
2.What was the turning point in the woman’s previous job?
A.A successful project she led.
B.A critical conversation with her mentor.
C.A mistake that taught her a valuable lesson.
【答案】C
【原文】W: At my old firm, I was always chasing promotions, working insane hours. Then, I messed up a client presentation badly — forgot key data. My boss, instead of firing me, sat me down and asked, “Why are you doing this if it’s making you miserable?”
M: That’s unexpected.
W: It was. That question forced me to reevaluate everything. I left a month later to start my own consultancy, focusing on work-life balance.
3.What is the man’s concern regarding the proposed policy?
A.Hard to enforce.
B.Unintended side effects.
C.No root cause solution.
【答案】B
【原文】W: The city plans to ban cars downtown on weekends to reduce pollution.
M: It’s good, but what about small businesses relying on driving customers? They may lose much income.
W: That’s a good point. They need support measures.
4.What did the man find surprising about the business meeting in Germany?
A.The formal dress code.
B.The directness of communication.
C.The long working hours.
【答案】B
【原文】M: I attended a business meeting in Frankfurt last week. What struck me most was how direct everyone was. If someone disagreed, they said so immediately — no sugarcoating.
W: Germans value efficiency in business. Beating around the bush is seen as a waste of time. It's quite different from our culture, where we often try to be more indirect to maintain harmony.
M: It was refreshing, actually. You always know where you stand.
5.What does the woman predict will happen if the current trend continues?
A.Remote work will become the new standard.
B.Downtown office rents will drop significantly.
C.Public transportation will see reduced usage.
【答案】B
【原文】M: The office is so quiet lately — half the desks are empty.
W: Most teams only come in two days a week with the flexible work policy. If this continues, management will downsize the office space when the lease ends next year to save costs.
M: Really? That would be a huge change for us.

W: Yes, I’ve noticed how hard you’ve been working.
M: Well, honestly, that may have been my mistake.
W: What do you mean?
M: Well, when I spoke to the boss about her decision, she mentioned how efficient and productive Alan is. So, I watched him at work for a few days, and I found it’s true.

M: Same here. Someday, we will.
W: Is this place always so empty?

W: Well, my old neighbor was moving away, and she couldn’t take all her potted plants with her. So she asked if I wanted them.
M: That was nice of her.
W: Yeah, I wasn’t really interested at first. Back then, I was only ten — all I wanted was a small animal! A little fox, or maybe a dog…even a rabbit would have been exciting!
M: Haha, plants must have seemed pretty boring then.
W: They did! But once I started taking care of them, I really grew to like it. It’s very calming.
M: Some of these look pretty unusual — like these over here.
W: Oh, those are desert plants. They’re harder to keep, but I think they’re worth it.
M: Do you buy them locally?
W: Sometimes, but I also grow a lot from seeds or cuttings right here at home.

M: Yeah, how free they are! There are some little creatures on this mountain.
W: Yeah, perhaps we can see some other animals along the way, such as squirrels and rabbits. Well, how much farther do we have to walk? I remember the mountain path is 1,300 meters long in total. I’m out of energy now.
M: It’s about 600 meters to the top.
W: We’d better have a break on that rock.
M: Okay. I’m already out of breath, too. I wish I hadn’t brought so many things with me.
W: I see eye to eye with you. They affect your speed. It’s better to pack light when you climb a mountain. Let’s have some food and water to lighten your load.
M: Here’s your water bottle. And eat some chocolates.

听第10段材料,回答第18至20题。
18.What inspired the speaker to sail?

B.The extreme weather.

A.Boring. B.Rewarding. C.Smooth.
【答案】18.B 19.C 20.B
【原文】M: I can’t remember when I made the decision to sail to the North Pole. The previous summer, I’d come across a book, Far Horizons, which suggested a journey of this kind was a unique experience. So I put on thick clothes and set off in my boat in July with some friends to sail to the Arctic seas. I’d been told that sailing there, you won’t have more problems than you’d expect on a normal sailing trip. Well, at first it was true. But there are differences. The most noticeable is that you’re alone there. If anything breaks down, you need to have all the tools you need. There’s no one you can turn to for help. The second difference is the temperature. In summer, the surface sea water is always above freezing but the air temperature never goes above ten degrees. For all the effort, we’re rewarded with a trip to a true wilderness, which can be reached in our very own boat.

Karen de Boer still remembers the morning when she almost missed her choir’s (合唱团的) performance during her freshman year in 1990. The choir, selected for an international tour to China, would perform at a church an hour away. But Karen overslept, missed the bus, and panicked.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she imagined the consequences. “This was my big chance. If I missed this performance, I might get kicked out of the choir. No choir meant no international tour.” Karen recalled, her voice still trembling slightly at the memory.
In desperation, she ran into the dorm hallway. “I was just standing there, completely lost, when I heard a door open behind me.”
It was Pam, Karen’s neighbor from across the hall. Karen and her friends had repeatedly interrupted her study with their loud laughter and practical jokes just weeks before.
“What’s wrong?” Pam asked, her voice surprisingly gentle despite their rocky history.
Karen swallowed hard. “I... I missed the choir bus. Our performance will start in less than an hour and no taxi will get there.”
To her astonishment, Pam didn’t hesitate. “Wait here,” she said firmly. Two minutes later, she returned with car keys. “I know where that church is. Let’s go.”
The ride was quiet at first. Then Karen finally found the courage to speak. “Pam... I’m sorry we kept you up at night...”
Pam kept her eyes on the road but smiled slightly. “Everyone deserves a second chance.”
They arrived with just minutes to spare. As Karen rushed to join her choir members, she turned back to see Pam waving encouragingly.
Years later, Karen sees Pam’s act as more than just a ride — it was forgiveness. “She showed me kindness I didn’t deserve,” Karen said. If she could speak to Pam today, she would apologize again for her past behavior and thank Pam. “That decision changed my life. It taught me the power of grace.”
24.Why was Karen concerned that morning?
A.She missed the choir bus. B.She forgot the international tour.
C.She mistook the performance time. D.She was kicked out of the choir.
25.How did Pam help Karen?
A.She called a taxi for her. B.She took her on a bike.
C.She drove her to the destination. D.She encouraged her to perform.
26.What can we infer about Pam’s character?
A.Strict but fair. B.Shy and quiet.
C.Ambitious but easy-going. D.Kind and forgiving.
27.What does the story mainly teach us?
A.Time management matters. B.True kindness changes lives.
C.Friendship requires efforts. D.Performance connects people.
【答案】24.A 25.C 26.D 27.B
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要介绍了Karen睡过头错过合唱团演出班车,走投无路时,曾被她打扰过的邻居Pam不计前嫌开车送她赶到现场,这件事让Karen感受到了宽容与善意的力量。
24.细节理解题。根据原文第一段“The choir, selected for an international tour to China, would perform at a church an hour away. But Karen overslept, missed the bus, and panicked.(这支被选中赴中国进行国际巡演的合唱团,将在一小时车程之外的一座教堂演出。但是Karen睡过头了,错过了班车,感到惊慌失措。)”可知,Karen那天早上担心是因为她错过了合唱团的班车。故选A。
25.细节理解题。根据原文第七段“To her astonishment, Pam didn’t hesitate. “Wait here,” she said firmly. Two minutes later, she returned with car keys. “I know where that church is. Let’s go.”(令她惊讶的是,Pam毫不犹豫。“在这儿等着。” 她语气坚定地说。两分钟后,她拿着车钥匙回来了。“我知道那个教堂在哪儿,我们走吧。”)”可知,Pam开车把Karen送到了目的地。故选C。
26.推理判断题。根据原文倒数第二段“Pam kept her eyes on the road but smiled slightly. “Everyone deserves a second chance.”(Pam眼睛看着路,微微笑了笑。“每个人都应该有第二次机会。”)”以及最后一段““She showed me kindness I didn’t deserve,” Karen said.(Karen说:“她给予了我本不配得到的善意。”)”可知,Pam善良且宽容。故选D。
27.推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“That decision changed my life. It taught me the power of grace.(那个举动改变了我的人生。它教会了我善意的力量。)”结合Pam不计前嫌地帮助Karen的故事情节可知,这个故事主要告诉我们真正的善意能够改变人生。故选B。

The UK government’s decision to mandate (强制要求) solar panels on all new homes by 2027 marks a significant milestone in its net-zero journey. This policy, while adding £3,000-£4,000 to construction costs per home, promises annual energy savings of £1,000 for homeowners while reducing carbon emissions. Some environmental groups have applauded the move, with campaigner Lily-Rose Ellis calling it a “commonsense decision” that develops and makes use of untapped rooftop potential.
The initiative matches broader climate goals. An expert from Energy Secretary emphasizes solar power’s dual benefits: enhancing energy security and cutting household bills. Scotland’s success story — where solar adoption in new buildings jumped from 10% in 2016 to 70% in 2020-demonstrates its availability. Roofing expert Stuart Nicholson highlights the artistic and practical advantages of integrated panels, noting their potential to ease fuel poverty in social housing.
However, the policy faces criticism. A former official labels such measures “unwise”, arguing they force financial burdens on citizens with slight global impact. The construction industry warns of delays due to complex permitting, especially for homes with north-facing roofs. Some experts advocate for diversified investments in wind energy and sustainable fuels instead.
Nonetheless, the generally accepted opinion is that the adoption of solar energy is a positive step. “New-build homes give out on average a third of the carbon of an older property, saving owners thousands of pounds in energy bills,” Steve Turner, executive director of the Home Builders Federation, has said. “To meet the ever more challenging carbon reductions set by the government, we will see solar on the overwhelming majority of new homes, though it is not appropriate in every situation,” he added.
In conclusion, the UK’s solar mandate represents a practical balance between environmental ambition and economic reality. Its success depends on addressing implementation (实施) challenges while maintaining flexibility for alternative solutions. By doing so, the UK can solidify its leadership in sustainable housing and inspire global emulation.
28.How does the author introduce the UK’s solar panel policy in paragraph 1?
A.By quoting historical data. B.By defining technical terms.
C.By criticizing opposition views. D.By comparing costs and benefits.
29.What is the primary reason for mentioning Scotland in the text?
A.To show its advanced solar technology. B.To prove the availability of solar adoption.
C.To warn of its slow progress in renewable energy. D.To emphasize its role in the policy-making.
30.Who expresses concerns about the policy’s financial impact?
A.An environmental campaigner. B.One construction industry worker.
C.One former government official. D.A solar panel businessman.
31.What does Steve Turner think of the solar mandate?
A.It’s mostly beneficial. B.It helps improve housing quality.
C.It’s useless for carbon cuts. D.It brings extra costs to builders.
【答案】28.D 29.B 30.C 31.A
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。主要介绍了英国计划 2027年起强制新房安装太阳能板,此举利于减排、节能省钱,获多方支持,但也有人质疑其增加民众负担、实施难度大。总体而言该政策利大于弊,是环保与经济的务实平衡。
28.推理判断题。根据第一段中“The UK government’s decision to mandate (强制要求) solar panels on all new homes by 2027 marks a significant milestone in its net-zero journey. This policy, while adding £3,000-£4,000 to construction costs per home, promises annual energy savings of £1,000 for homeowners while reducing carbon emissions.( 英国政府决定自2027年起在所有新建住宅中强制安装太阳能电池板,这标志着其实现净零排放目标进程中的一个重要里程碑。这项政策虽会使每栋住宅的建设成本增加3000至4000英镑,但每年能为业主节省 1000英镑的能源费用,同时还能减少碳排放。)”可知,第一段既提到该政策会让每户建房成本增加 3000-4000英镑,又指出房主每年可节省1000英镑能源费用并减少碳排放,通过对比成本与收益介绍这项太阳能板政策。故选D项。
29.推理判断题。根据第二段中“Scotland’s success story — where solar adoption in new buildings jumped from 10% in 2016 to 70% in 2020-demonstrates its availability.( 苏格兰的成功案例——在新建建筑中太阳能的采用率从2016年的10%跃升至2020年的70%——证明了其可行性。)”可推知,文中提及苏格兰新建建筑太阳能使用率从2016 年的 10% 升至 2020 年的 70%,是为了证明普及太阳能的可行性。故选B项。
30.细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, the policy faces criticism. A former official labels such measures “unwise”, arguing they force financial burdens on citizens with slight global impact.( 然而,该政策也面临批评。一位前官员称此类措施“不明智”,认为它们会给公民带来经济负担,但对全球的影响甚微。)”可知,一位前政府官员对这项政策的财务影响表示担忧。故选C项。
31.推理判断题。根据第四段中“To meet the ever more challenging carbon reductions set by the government, we will see solar on the overwhelming majority of new homes, though it is not appropriate in every situation,” he added.( 他补充说:“为了满足政府制定的更具挑战性的碳减排目标,我们将看到绝大多数新住宅使用太阳能,尽管它并不适用于所有情况。”)”可知,史蒂夫·特纳表示新建房屋使用太阳能是积极举措,能大幅减少碳排放、节省电费,虽并非适用于所有情况,但绝大多数新房都应安装,可见他认为该政策总体上是有益的。故选A项。
D
A groundbreaking study reveals that simply observing visual art can significantly enhance well-being, with benefits extending beyond museums to hospitals and even virtual settings. Published in The Journal of Positive Psychology, the research synthesizes (综合) 38 studies involving 6,805 participants, offering the first comprehensive analysis of art’s therapeutic potential.
Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and inconsistent, they say. This study examined decades of scattered (分散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and comprehensive overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being.
Led by psychologists from the University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University, the study highlights how artworks like The Starry Night and The Scream improve eudemonic well-being — linked to life meaning and personal growth. The effects were consistent across diverse formats, including paintings, sculptures, and digital displays.
These benefits were observed in a variety of locations — in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality. A wide range of art types including figurative and abstract paintings, photography, and sculpture were found to improve well-being.
“Art is often seen as a luxury,” notes lead author MacKenzie Trupp, at the University of Vienna, “but our findings position it as an accessible, low-cost well-being tool.”
Claire Howlin, assistant professor of Trinity College, added, “While the benefits of creating art are well-documented, the impacts of viewing art have been overlooked despite its daily accessibility.” The World Health Organization’s 2019 recommendation to pair art with clinical care aligns (使一致) with these findings, as art addresses core human needs for meaning and identity.
With European health departments seeking evidence-based art interventions, this review paves the way for large-scale implementation. From Van Gogh masterpieces to hospital corridor installations, art proves to be a universal resource for mental wellness.
32.Why does the author mention the previous research on appreciating art?
A.To criticize its limitation. B.To highlight new findings.
C.To prove art is inconsistent. D.To compare different studies.
33.What does the underlined word “eudemonic” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Right-based. B.Wealth-supported. C.Value-related. D.Passion-driven.
34.What can we learn from Claire Howlin’s words?
A.Clinical care should replace art. B.Viewing art is undervalued.
C.Art is hard to appreciate. D.Few people fully access art.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Visual Art Is a Costly Luxury B.Creating Art Matters Much
C.Art Can Give Meaning to Life D.Viewing Art Boosts Well-being
【答案】32.B 33.C 34.B 35.D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项新研究综合分析发现,观赏各类视觉艺术可显著提升幸福感,该方式低成本易获取,还可应用于医疗等领域,其价值此前常被忽视。
32.推理判断题。根据第二段“Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and inconsistent, they say. This study examined decades of scattered (分散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and comprehensive overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being.( 他们指出,此前的研究表明观赏艺术可能会影响情绪或压力,但这些研究存在局限性和不一致性。而此次研究则对数十年分散的调查进行了审查,首次提供了关于何时、何地以及为何观赏艺术能促进幸福感的清晰且全面的概述。)”可知,第二段指出,以往研究有限且结论不一致,而本次研究首次全面清晰地梳理了观赏艺术提升幸福感的相关结论。由此可知,提及旧研究是为了突出新研究的创新性与重要性。故选B项。
33.词句猜测题。根据破折号后解释:“linked to life meaning and personal growth(与人生意义、个人成长相关)”由此可知,这种幸福感与价值、意义相关。C选项Value-related“与价值相关的”符合语境。故选C项。
34.推理判断题。根据第六段中“Claire Howlin, assistant professor of Trinity College, added, “While the benefits of creating art are well-documented, the impacts of viewing art have been overlooked despite its daily accessibility.”(特里尼蒂学院的助理教授克莱尔·霍林补充道:“虽然创作艺术的好处已得到充分证实,但观赏艺术的影响却被忽视了,尽管它在日常生活中随处可见。”)”可知,从克莱尔·霍林的言论中,我们可以得出观赏艺术未得到足够的重视。故选B项。
35.主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第一段中“A groundbreaking study reveals that simply observing visual art can significantly enhance well-being, with benefits extending beyond museums to hospitals and even virtual settings.( 一项开创性的研究表明,仅仅观赏视觉艺术就能显著提升幸福感,其益处不仅限于博物馆,还延伸至医院乃至虚拟环境。)”可知,原文核心为一项新研究证实:观赏视觉艺术能显著提升幸福感,且成本低、易实现,适用于多种场景。由此可知,这篇文章适合的标题是“观赏艺术能提升幸福感”。故选D项。

从命题技术看,七选五题型重点考查语篇连贯性与逻辑衔接能力。本文设空位置均衡(段首、段中、段尾各一),选项类型丰富:第36题需识别上文故事引发的疑问,选择引导后文思考的设问句;第37题考查代词指代(this purpose)与因果逻辑;第38题要求通过转折词But识别情感转折;第39题需概括前文列举行为的总括性后果(set the stage for);第40题考查承上启下的过渡句,连接现象描述与观点升华。
该文本难度适中,生词量可控(如neuroscience、randomness等为课标内词汇),句式以复合句为主,适合作为七选五的中等难度训练材料。选项干扰项设计合理(如B项虽为问句但与下文不衔接,C项观点与主旨相悖),能有效区分学生逻辑分析能力。该题符合高考对“思辨能力”与“语篇结构意识”的考查趋势,具有较高的押题价值。
Last night, I heard a story that left me thinking: a friend was driving home late on a rainy day when a cat suddenly dashed out from the shadows. Before he could put on the brakes, he hit the cat. As he stood by the side of the road, shaken, his first thought was: “It was just an accident — I didn’t mean it.” 36 The question has stuck with me like a fish bone in the throat.
Neuroscience offers a clue: our brains are wired to protect our sense of being a “good person.” 37 A similar phrase is “I had no choice”, which also allows us to avoid facing the complexity of our decisions.
38 In the days that followed, he couldn’t shake the guilt. He replayed the drive endlessly in his mind, and gradually, a different truth emerged: he had been tired, he’d taken a shortcut that he knew was poorly lit, and he had been checking a text message just moments before. 39 In the end, he posted about the incident online, no longer calling it an “accident”, and even made a donation to a local animal rescue.
His story reveals a crucial truth: accidents are often the result of a series of choices we make rather than pure randomness. In our daily life, we use “it is an accident” constantly. 40 More often than not, we cannot blame the rain, the cat’s sudden dash, or any other external factor — there are no real excuses. Instead, we must separate choices from accidents. True responsibility lies in acknowledging our choices.
A.These set the stage for the tragedy.
B.How can we lighten our moral load?
C.We truly bear no responsibility for the outcome.
D.But the label “accident” offered him no real comfort.
E.Life may happen to us, but it doesn’t fully excuse us.
F.Why do we reach for the word “accident” so quickly?
G.Calling something an “accident” often serves this purpose.
【答案】36.F 37.G 38.D 39.A 40.E
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了人们常将意外事件归咎于偶然,而忽视了自身选择的作用,强调应认清选择与意外的区别,勇于承担责任。
36.上文“Before he could put on the brakes, he hit the cat. As he stood by the side of the road, shaken, his first thought was: “It was just an accident — I didn’t mean it.”(在他还没来得及踩刹车的时候,就撞到了那只猫。当他站在路边,浑身颤抖着时,他的第一个念头是:“这只是个意外——我不是故意的。”)”引出朋友用“意外”为自己开脱,下文“The question has stuck with me like a fish bone in the throat.(这个问题像鱼刺一样卡在我喉咙里)”点明作者产生一个疑问。空处应是一个问题,引出后文作者对这个问题的思考。选项F“Why do we reach for the word “accident” so quickly?(为什么我们这么快就想到“意外”这个词?)”符合语境,与后文相呼应。故选F。
37.上文“Neuroscience offers a clue: our brains are wired to protect our sense of being a “good person.”(神经科学提供了一个线索:我们的大脑天生就倾向于保护我们作为“好人”的自我认知)”指出大脑的本能。空处承接上文,解释“意外”这个词的作用。选项G“Calling something an ‘accident’ often serves this purpose.(称某事为“意外”通常能达到这个目的)”符合语境,解释了大脑保护我们作为“好人”的认知的一种方式,即称某事为“意外”,选项中的this purpose指代前文protect our sense of being a “good person”,进一步说明“意外”一词的作用,与后文内容相呼应。故选G。
38.上文提到大脑倾向于称某事为“意外”来保护我们作为“好人”的认知,下文“In the days that followed, he couldn’t shake the guilt.(在接下来的日子里,他无法摆脱内疚感)”讲述朋友并未因“意外”的说法而安心。空处与前文形成转折,引出朋友的真实感受。选项D“But the label “accident” offered him no real comfort.(但“意外”这个标签并没有给他带来真正的安慰)”以But转折,指出“意外”无法带来安慰,与后文愧疚感相衔接,符合语境。故选D。
39.上文“He replayed the drive endlessly in his mind, and gradually, a different truth emerged: he had been tired, he’d taken a shortcut that he knew was poorly lit, and he had been checking a text message just moments before.(他在脑海中不停地回放这段旅程,渐渐地,一个不同的真相出现了:他很累,他走了一条他知道光线不好的近路,就在刚才他还在看短信)”列举朋友之前的一系列行为。空处总结这些行为带来的后果。选项A“These set the stage for the tragedy.(这些为这场悲剧埋下了伏笔)”承接上文,说明这些错误选择与悲剧之间的关系,选项中的These指代前文朋友的一系列不当行为,总结其导致事故发生,符合语境。故选A。
40.上文“In our daily life, we use “it is an accident” constantly.(在我们的日常生活中,我们经常使用“这是个意外”)”指出人们的普遍做法,下文“More often than not, we cannot blame the rain, the cat’s sudden dash, or any other external factor — there are no real excuses.(很多时候,我们不能怪雨,不能怪猫的突然冲出,也不能怪任何其他外部因素——没有真正的借口)”强调不能用意外推卸责任。空处承上启下,表达不能完全用意外开脱。选项E“Life may happen to us, but it doesn’t fully excuse us.(生活可能发生在我们身上,但这并不能完全成为我们的借口)”承接上文人们对意外的使用,引出后文没有真正借口的观点,起到过渡作用,符合语境。故选E。
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, 从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
All my life I’ve been bad at sports, so I never joined my friends’ sports games. “Hating sports” was core to my 41 .
Last year, a friend invited me to a kickabout — a casual football game. Had we been less close, I might have made 42 . Instead I turned up, determined to keep far from the ball. To my great 43 , I enjoyed myself. Rather than hanging around on the 44 , I got swept up in the game. Since then, kickabout has become one of my hobbies. A year later, our amateur kickabout team has 45 from only five friends to 40 members. We meet at our local sports center every other Sunday. What 46 me turning up every time? It is the joy of challenging myself, with no 47 of being skilled or professional.
Why does it feel so 48 to be bad at something? Karen Walrond, the author of the book In Defense of Dabbling, thinks that being an amateur was not always 49 . Walrond explains that even if you don’t make obvious 50 , you can still benefit in other ways. These benefits often 51 into your daily life. For example, although Walrond finds traditional meditation (禅修) challenging, she achieves a mindful state when fully 52 in this activity she enjoys.
Focusing on the process helps people 53 perfectionism and enjoy the experience. This is the 54 I have discovered: You don’t need to be skilled at something to love it. 55 , loving it is all that matters.

第二节(共10小题;每小题1.5分 ,满分15分)
阅读下面材料,在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
Chinese landscape painting, known as shanshui (“mountain-water”) painting, holds 56 unique position in global art history. Unlike Western perspectives that focus on human subjects, traditional Chinese 57 (paint) viewed nature as the ultimate teacher.
It originated in the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and flourished in the Sui and Tang, 58 (reach) its artistic peak in the Song and Yuan dynasties with richer themes and techniques. The creation process 59 (reflect) Daoist philosophies for centuries. They often layered light and heavy ink strokes to mimic the subtle changes of mountains and clouds, filling each piece 60 a sense of dynamic tranquility (宁静). Artists would meditate for days before picking up their brushes, seeking harmony between ink and paper. 61 makes these works timeless is that they capture not just scenery, but the artist’s 62 (spirit) dialogue with nature.
Modern conservationists now use these paintings as historical records. A Song Dynasty scroll 63 (preserve) in the Palace Museum, for instance, helped ecologists restore native plants around West Lake. This interplay between art and science confirms the enduring value of traditional culture.
“These paintings are bridges,” says curator Li Wei, 64 team has cataloged over 1,000 works. “They 65 (close) link up past wisdom with present challenges.”
【答案】
56.a 57.painters 58.reaching 59.has reflected 60.with 61.What 62.spiritual 63.preserved 64.whose 65.closely
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国山水画在世界艺术史上地位独特,源于魏晋,盛于隋唐,于宋元达巅峰,蕴含道家思想。现代它被用作历史文献助力生态保护,连接古今智慧。
56.考查冠词。句意:中国山水画,又称“山水”画,在全球艺术史上占据着独特的地位。position为可数名词单数,且unique发音以辅音音素开头,此处表示“在全球艺术史上占据一个独特的地位”,需用不定冠词a。故填a。
57.考查名词。句意:与西方侧重于描绘人类形象的视角不同,中国传统画家将自然视为终极导师。句子主语需为表示人的名词,paint对应的表人的名词为painter;结合语境“中国传统画家”可知,此处应用复数形式表泛指。故填painters。
58.考查非谓语动词。句意:它起源于魏晋南北朝时期,并在隋唐时期达到鼎盛,在宋元时期达到艺术的巅峰,其主题更加丰富,技法也更加精湛。句中“originated...and flourished...”是并列谓语动词,故设空为非谓语动词;reach与其逻辑主语It(指代山水画)为主动关系,因此用现在分词形式作状语。故填reaching。
59.考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:其创作过程数百年来一直体现了道家哲学思想。根据时间状语“for centuries”可知,句子时态为现在完成时,强调动作从过去开始持续到现在并可能继续下去;主语“The creation process”为单数,故谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填has reflected。
60.考查固定短语。句意:他们常常通过层层叠加浓淡不同的墨线来模仿山峦和云雾的微妙变化,使每幅作品都充满动态的宁静感。“fill sth. with sth.”为固定短语,意为“使某物充满某物”。故填with。
61.考查主语从句。句意:这些作品之所以具有永恒的价值,是因为它们不仅描绘了风景,还体现了艺术家与自然的精神对话。设空处引导主语从句,且在从句中作主语,指代“让这些作品具有永恒价值的事物”,应用连接代词what。句首单词首字母大写,故填What。
62.考查形容词。句意同上。设空处修饰名词dialogue,需用形容词作定语;spirit对应的形容词为spiritual,意为“精神层面的”。故填spiritual。
63.考查非谓语动词。句意:例如,故宫博物院保存的一幅宋代画卷就帮助生态学家在西湖周边恢复了本土植物。此处非谓语动词过去分词作后置定语修饰名词scroll,preserve与scroll为被动关系,用过去分词形式。故填preserved。
64.考查定语从句。句意:“这些画作就像是桥梁,”策展人李伟说道,其团队已对超过 1000 件作品进行了分类。设空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词“curator Li Wei”,且在从句中作定语,应用关系代词whose引导。故填whose。
65.考查副词。句意:它们将过去的智慧与当下的挑战紧密地联系了起来。设空处修饰谓语动词link up,需用副词closely“紧密地”作状语。故填closely。

第二节(满分25分)
67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In the winter of my final year in high school, I was going through one of the toughest periods of my life. Everything seemed to go wrong at the same time. The small family store we relied on was on the edge of closing, and my father’s company shut down without warning, leaving him unexpectedly unemployed. He returned home earlier than usual every day, pretending nothing had changed, as though calmness alone could hold our fragile world together. Meanwhile, I failed an important exam that I had once regarded as my ticket to a better future.
The failure struck me with unexpected force. I had always assumed that hard work would naturally lead to success; however, the red marks scattered across my paper told a different story. For days, I avoided eye contact with my classmates, whose cheerful conversations about universities sounded distant, almost unreal.
At home, silence gradually became the norm. My father spent long hours sitting at the dining table, staring at his laptop screen in quiet concentration. Sometimes I noticed him hesitate before closing it, seemingly reluctant to face yet another rejection email. Nevertheless, whenever I asked how things were going, he would force a reassuring smile and reply, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”
One evening, while helping him organize old receipts for the store, I came across a small notebook filled with his neat handwriting. On the first page, he had written, “No matter how fragile the situation seems, never lose courage.” I suddenly realized that beneath his composed appearance, he had been fighting his own battle silently and steadfastly.
That night, I lay awake, reflecting on the exam I had failed. Perhaps the result did not signify the end; perhaps it was merely a test of my determination. I made up my mind to take the exam again and prove to myself that I could do better.
The next morning, I began reviewing my mistakes with renewed seriousness. Instead of surrendering to shame, I analyzed each error carefully. Weeks passed. Doubt would occasionally return, whispering that my efforts might be in vain. Yet I persisted, remembering the words in my father’s notebook.
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。
Finally, the day came when the results of the retake exam were posted.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Holding the result sheet, I hurried back to the store.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Finally, the day came when the results of the retake exam were posted. I stood among the crowd, searching for my name on the list. For a moment, I could hardly breathe. My eyes moved slowly down the page, afraid of disappointment. Then I saw it — my name, followed by a score far better than before. I read it again to make sure it was real. A quiet warmth spread through me, stronger than excitement. It was not only about passing the exam; it was proof that persistence truly mattered. All those evenings of careful revision and silent determination finally paid off.
Holding the result sheet, I hurried back to the store. My father was arranging goods on the shelf when I entered. I handed him the paper without speaking. As he read it, his tired eyes brightened. For the first time in months, his smile reached his eyes. “I’m proud of you,” he said softly. At that instant, I understood something deeper: success is not the absence of hardship, but the courage to continue despite it. And just like my father, I had learned not to give up when the situation seemed fragile.
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者在高三那年的冬天遭遇了人生的低谷:家里赖以生存的小店濒临倒闭,父亲突然失业,自己又在一场重要考试中失利,家中气氛压抑沉默。偶然间,作者发现了父亲笔记本上鼓励自己坚强面对困境的话语,意识到父亲也在默默承受压力、顽强坚持。这让作者深受触动,不再沉溺于挫败感,而是重新振作,决心正视失败、认真复习再战,明白了困境不是终点,而是对意志的考验。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“补考成绩公布的那天终于到了。”可知,第一段可描写作者在查看成绩时复杂的心理活动以及看到成绩后的喜悦之情。
②由第二段首句内容“我攥着成绩单,快步赶回店里。”可知,第二段可描写父亲知道作者成绩后的赞美以及作者的感悟。
2.续写线索:感到激动并担忧——查到成绩——感到喜悦——告诉父亲成绩——受到赞美——感悟
3.词汇激活

①确保:make sure/guarantee
②重要:matter/count
③理解:understand/comprehend

I'd come across the book far horizons, which suggested a journey of this kind was a unique experience. So I put on thick clothes and set off in my boat in july with some friends to sail to the arctic seas. I'd been told that sAiling there, you won't have more problems than you'd expect on a Normal sAiling trip. Well, at first this was true that there are differences. The most noticeable is that you're alone there. If anything breaks down, you need to have all the tools you need. There's no one you can turn to for help. The second difference is the temperature. In summer, the surface seawater is always above freezing, but the air temperature never goes above ten degrees. For all effort, we're rewarded with a trip to a true wilderness, which can be reached in our very own vote. I can't remember when I made the decision to sale to the north pole the previous summer.

Karen de Boer still remembers the morning when she almost missed her choir’s (合唱团的) performance during her freshman year in 1990. The choir, selected for an international tour to China, would perform at a church an hour away. But Karen overslept, missed the bus, and panicked.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she imagined the consequences. “This was my big chance. If I missed this performance, I might get kicked out of the choir. No choir meant no international tour.” Karen recalled, her voice still trembling slightly at the memory.
In desperation, she ran into the dorm hallway. “I was just standing there, completely lost, when I heard a door open behind me.”
It was Pam, Karen’s neighbor from across the hall. Karen and her friends had repeatedly interrupted her study with their loud laughter and practical jokes just weeks before.
“What’s wrong?” Pam asked, her voice surprisingly gentle despite their rocky history.
Karen swallowed hard. “I... I missed the choir bus. Our performance will start in less than an hour and no taxi will get there.”
To her astonishment, Pam didn’t hesitate. “Wait here,” she said firmly. Two minutes later, she returned with car keys. “I know where that church is. Let’s go.”
The ride was quiet at first. Then Karen finally found the courage to speak. “Pam... I’m sorry we kept you up at night...”
Pam kept her eyes on the road but smiled slightly. “Everyone deserves a second chance.”
They arrived with just minutes to spare. As Karen rushed to join her choir members, she turned back to see Pam waving encouragingly.
Years later, Karen sees Pam’s act as more than just a ride — it was forgiveness. “She showed me kindness I didn’t deserve,” Karen said. If she could speak to Pam today, she would apologize again for her past behavior and thank Pam. “That decision changed my life. It taught me the power of grace.”
24.Why was Karen concerned that morning?
A.She missed the choir bus. B.She forgot the international tour.
C.She mistook the performance time. D.She was kicked out of the choir.
25.How did Pam help Karen?
A.She called a taxi for her. B.She took her on a bike.
C.She drove her to the destination. D.She encouraged her to perform.
26.What can we infer about Pam’s character?
A.Strict but fair. B.Shy and quiet.
C.Ambitious but easy-going. D.Kind and forgiving.
27.What does the story mainly teach us?
A.Time management matters. B.True kindness changes lives.
C.Friendship requires efforts. D.Performance connects people.

The UK government’s decision to mandate (强制要求) solar panels on all new homes by 2027 marks a significant milestone in its net-zero journey. This policy, while adding £3,000-£4,000 to construction costs per home, promises annual energy savings of £1,000 for homeowners while reducing carbon emissions. Some environmental groups have applauded the move, with campaigner Lily-Rose Ellis calling it a “commonsense decision” that develops and makes use of untapped rooftop potential.
The initiative matches broader climate goals. An expert from Energy Secretary emphasizes solar power’s dual benefits: enhancing energy security and cutting household bills. Scotland’s success story — where solar adoption in new buildings jumped from 10% in 2016 to 70% in 2020-demonstrates its availability. Roofing expert Stuart Nicholson highlights the artistic and practical advantages of integrated panels, noting their potential to ease fuel poverty in social housing.
However, the policy faces criticism. A former official labels such measures “unwise”, arguing they force financial burdens on citizens with slight global impact. The construction industry warns of delays due to complex permitting, especially for homes with north-facing roofs. Some experts advocate for diversified investments in wind energy and sustainable fuels instead.
Nonetheless, the generally accepted opinion is that the adoption of solar energy is a positive step. “New-build homes give out on average a third of the carbon of an older property, saving owners thousands of pounds in energy bills,” Steve Turner, executive director of the Home Builders Federation, has said. “To meet the ever more challenging carbon reductions set by the government, we will see solar on the overwhelming majority of new homes, though it is not appropriate in every situation,” he added.
In conclusion, the UK’s solar mandate represents a practical balance between environmental ambition and economic reality. Its success depends on addressing implementation (实施) challenges while maintaining flexibility for alternative solutions. By doing so, the UK can solidify its leadership in sustainable housing and inspire global emulation.
28.How does the author introduce the UK’s solar panel policy in paragraph 1?
A.By quoting historical data. B.By defining technical terms.
C.By criticizing opposition views. D.By comparing costs and benefits.
29.What is the primary reason for mentioning Scotland in the text?
A.To show its advanced solar technology. B.To prove the availability of solar adoption.
C.To warn of its slow progress in renewable energy. D.To emphasize its role in the policy-making.
30.Who expresses concerns about the policy’s financial impact?
A.An environmental campaigner. B.One construction industry worker.
C.One former government official. D.A solar panel businessman.
31.What does Steve Turner think of the solar mandate?
A.It’s mostly beneficial. B.It helps improve housing quality.
C.It’s useless for carbon cuts. D.It brings extra costs to builders.
D
A groundbreaking study reveals that simply observing visual art can significantly enhance well-being, with benefits extending beyond museums to hospitals and even virtual settings. Published in The Journal of Positive Psychology, the research synthesizes (综合) 38 studies involving 6,805 participants, offering the first comprehensive analysis of art’s therapeutic potential.
Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and inconsistent, they say. This study examined decades of scattered (分散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and comprehensive overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being.
Led by psychologists from the University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University, the study highlights how artworks like The Starry Night and The Scream improve eudemonic well-being — linked to life meaning and personal growth. The effects were consistent across diverse formats, including paintings, sculptures, and digital displays.
These benefits were observed in a variety of locations — in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality. A wide range of art types including figurative and abstract paintings, photography, and sculpture were found to improve well-being.
“Art is often seen as a luxury,” notes lead author MacKenzie Trupp, at the University of Vienna, “but our findings position it as an accessible, low-cost well-being tool.”
Claire Howlin, assistant professor of Trinity College, added, “While the benefits of creating art are well-documented, the impacts of viewing art have been overlooked despite its daily accessibility.” The World Health Organization’s 2019 recommendation to pair art with clinical care aligns (使一致) with these findings, as art addresses core human needs for meaning and identity.
With European health departments seeking evidence-based art interventions, this review paves the way for large-scale implementation. From Van Gogh masterpieces to hospital corridor installations, art proves to be a universal resource for mental wellness.
32.Why does the author mention the previous research on appreciating art?
A.To criticize its limitation. B.To highlight new findings.
C.To prove art is inconsistent. D.To compare different studies.
33.What does the underlined word “eudemonic” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Right-based. B.Wealth-supported. C.Value-related. D.Passion-driven.
34.What can we learn from Claire Howlin’s words?
A.Clinical care should replace art. B.Viewing art is undervalued.
C.Art is hard to appreciate. D.Few people fully access art.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Visual Art Is a Costly Luxury B.Creating Art Matters Much
C.Art Can Give Meaning to Life D.Viewing Art Boosts Well-being

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Last night, I heard a story that left me thinking: a friend was driving home late on a rainy day when a cat suddenly dashed out from the shadows. Before he could put on the brakes, he hit the cat. As he stood by the side of the road, shaken, his first thought was: “It was just an accident — I didn’t mean it.” 36 The question has stuck with me like a fish bone in the throat.
Neuroscience offers a clue: our brains are wired to protect our sense of being a “good person.” 37 A similar phrase is “I had no choice”, which also allows us to avoid facing the complexity of our decisions.
38 In the days that followed, he couldn’t shake the guilt. He replayed the drive endlessly in his mind, and gradually, a different truth emerged: he had been tired, he’d taken a shortcut that he knew was poorly lit, and he had been checking a text message just moments before. 39 In the end, he posted about the incident online, no longer calling it an “accident”, and even made a donation to a local animal rescue.
His story reveals a crucial truth: accidents are often the result of a series of choices we make rather than pure randomness. In our daily life, we use “it is an accident” constantly. 40 More often than not, we cannot blame the rain, the cat’s sudden dash, or any other external factor — there are no real excuses. Instead, we must separate choices from accidents. True responsibility lies in acknowledging our choices.
A.These set the stage for the tragedy.
B.How can we lighten our moral load?
C.We truly bear no responsibility for the outcome.
D.But the label “accident” offered him no real comfort.
E.Life may happen to us, but it doesn’t fully excuse us.
F.Why do we reach for the word “accident” so quickly?
G.Calling something an “accident” often serves this purpose.

All my life I’ve been bad at sports, so I never joined my friends’ sports games. “Hating sports” was core to my 41 .
Last year, a friend invited me to a kickabout — a casual football game. Had we been less close, I might have made 42 . Instead I turned up, determined to keep far from the ball. To my great 43 , I enjoyed myself. Rather than hanging around on the 44 , I got swept up in the game. Since then, kickabout has become one of my hobbies. A year later, our amateur kickabout team has 45 from only five friends to 40 members. We meet at our local sports center every other Sunday. What 46 me turning up every time? It is the joy of challenging myself, with no 47 of being skilled or professional.
Why does it feel so 48 to be bad at something? Karen Walrond, the author of the book In Defense of Dabbling, thinks that being an amateur was not always 49 . Walrond explains that even if you don’t make obvious 50 , you can still benefit in other ways. These benefits often 51 into your daily life. For example, although Walrond finds traditional meditation (禅修) challenging, she achieves a mindful state when fully 52 in this activity she enjoys.
Focusing on the process helps people 53 perfectionism and enjoy the experience. This is the 54 I have discovered: You don’t need to be skilled at something to love it. 55 , loving it is all that matters.

Chinese landscape painting, known as shanshui (“mountain-water”) painting, holds 56 unique position in global art history. Unlike Western perspectives that focus on human subjects, traditional Chinese 57 (paint) viewed nature as the ultimate teacher.
It originated in the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and flourished in the Sui and Tang, 58 (reach) its artistic peak in the Song and Yuan dynasties with richer themes and techniques. The creation process 59 (reflect) Daoist philosophies for centuries. They often layered light and heavy ink strokes to mimic the subtle changes of mountains and clouds, filling each piece 60 a sense of dynamic tranquility (宁静). Artists would meditate for days before picking up their brushes, seeking harmony between ink and paper. 61 makes these works timeless is that they capture not just scenery, but the artist’s 62 (spirit) dialogue with nature.
Modern conservationists now use these paintings as historical records. A Song Dynasty scroll 63 (preserve) in the Palace Museum, for instance, helped ecologists restore native plants around West Lake. This interplay between art and science confirms the enduring value of traditional culture.
“These paintings are bridges,” says curator Li Wei, 64 team has cataloged over 1,000 works. “They 65 (close) link up past wisdom with present challenges.”

67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In the winter of my final year in high school, I was going through one of the toughest periods of my life. Everything seemed to go wrong at the same time. The small family store we relied on was on the edge of closing, and my father’s company shut down without warning, leaving him unexpectedly unemployed. He returned home earlier than usual every day, pretending nothing had changed, as though calmness alone could hold our fragile world together. Meanwhile, I failed an important exam that I had once regarded as my ticket to a better future.
The failure struck me with unexpected force. I had always assumed that hard work would naturally lead to success; however, the red marks scattered across my paper told a different story. For days, I avoided eye contact with my classmates, whose cheerful conversations about universities sounded distant, almost unreal.
At home, silence gradually became the norm. My father spent long hours sitting at the dining table, staring at his laptop screen in quiet concentration. Sometimes I noticed him hesitate before closing it, seemingly reluctant to face yet another rejection email. Nevertheless, whenever I asked how things were going, he would force a reassuring smile and reply, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”
One evening, while helping him organize old receipts for the store, I came across a small notebook filled with his neat handwriting. On the first page, he had written, “No matter how fragile the situation seems, never lose courage.” I suddenly realized that beneath his composed appearance, he had been fighting his own battle silently and steadfastly.
That night, I lay awake, reflecting on the exam I had failed. Perhaps the result did not signify the end; perhaps it was merely a test of my determination. I made up my mind to take the exam again and prove to myself that I could do better.
The next morning, I began reviewing my mistakes with renewed seriousness. Instead of surrendering to shame, I analyzed each error carefully. Weeks passed. Doubt would occasionally return, whispering that my efforts might be in vain. Yet I persisted, remembering the words in my father’s notebook.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;

Finally, the day came when the results of the retake exam were posted.

Finally, the day came when the results of the retake exam were posted. I stood among the crowd, searching for my name on the list. For a moment, I could hardly breathe. My eyes moved slowly down the page, afraid of disappointment. Then I saw it — my name, followed by a score far better than before. I read it again to make sure it was real. A quiet warmth spread through me, stronger than excitement. It was not only about passing the exam; it was proof that persistence truly mattered. All those evenings of careful revision and silent determination finally paid off.
Holding the result sheet, I hurried back to the store. My father was arranging goods on the shelf when I entered. I handed him the paper without speaking. As he read it, his tired eyes brightened. For the first time in months, his smile reached his eyes. “I’m proud of you,” he said softly. At that instant, I understood something deeper: success is not the absence of hardship, but the courage to continue despite it. And just like my father, I had learned not to give up when the situation seemed fragile.

Karen de Boer still remembers the morning when she almost missed her choir’s (合唱团的) performance during her freshman year in 1990. The choir, selected for an international tour to China, would perform at a church an hour away. But Karen overslept, missed the bus, and panicked.
Tears welled up in her eyes as she imagined the consequences. “This was my big chance. If I missed this performance, I might get kicked out of the choir. No choir meant no international tour.” Karen recalled, her voice still trembling slightly at the memory.
In desperation, she ran into the dorm hallway. “I was just standing there, completely lost, when I heard a door open behind me.”
It was Pam, Karen’s neighbor from across the hall. Karen and her friends had repeatedly interrupted her study with their loud laughter and practical jokes just weeks before.
“What’s wrong?” Pam asked, her voice surprisingly gentle despite their rocky history.
Karen swallowed hard. “I... I missed the choir bus. Our performance will start in less than an hour and no taxi will get there.”
To her astonishment, Pam didn’t hesitate. “Wait here,” she said firmly. Two minutes later, she returned with car keys. “I know where that church is. Let’s go.”
The ride was quiet at first. Then Karen finally found the courage to speak. “Pam... I’m sorry we kept you up at night...”
Pam kept her eyes on the road but smiled slightly. “Everyone deserves a second chance.”
They arrived with just minutes to spare. As Karen rushed to join her choir members, she turned back to see Pam waving encouragingly.
Years later, Karen sees Pam’s act as more than just a ride — it was forgiveness. “She showed me kindness I didn’t deserve,” Karen said. If she could speak to Pam today, she would apologize again for her past behavior and thank Pam. “That decision changed my life. It taught me the power of grace.”
24.Why was Karen concerned that morning?
A.She missed the choir bus. B.She forgot the international tour.
C.She mistook the performance time. D.She was kicked out of the choir.
25.How did Pam help Karen?
A.She called a taxi for her. B.She took her on a bike.
C.She drove her to the destination. D.She encouraged her to perform.
26.What can we infer about Pam’s character?
A.Strict but fair. B.Shy and quiet.
C.Ambitious but easy-going. D.Kind and forgiving.
27.What does the story mainly teach us?
A.Time management matters. B.True kindness changes lives.
C.Friendship requires efforts. D.Performance connects people.
C
The UK government’s decision to mandate (强制要求) solar panels on all new homes by 2027 marks a significant milestone in its net-zero journey. This policy, while adding £3,000-£4,000 to construction costs per home, promises annual energy savings of £1,000 for homeowners while reducing carbon emissions. Some environmental groups have applauded the move, with campaigner Lily-Rose Ellis calling it a “commonsense decision” that develops and makes use of untapped rooftop potential.
The initiative matches broader climate goals. An expert from Energy Secretary emphasizes solar power’s dual benefits: enhancing energy security and cutting household bills. Scotland’s success story — where solar adoption in new buildings jumped from 10% in 2016 to 70% in 2020-demonstrates its availability. Roofing expert Stuart Nicholson highlights the artistic and practical advantages of integrated panels, noting their potential to ease fuel poverty in social housing.
However, the policy faces criticism. A former official labels such measures “unwise”, arguing they force financial burdens on citizens with slight global impact. The construction industry warns of delays due to complex permitting, especially for homes with north-facing roofs. Some experts advocate for diversified investments in wind energy and sustainable fuels instead.
Nonetheless, the generally accepted opinion is that the adoption of solar energy is a positive step. “New-build homes give out on average a third of the carbon of an older property, saving owners thousands of pounds in energy bills,” Steve Turner, executive director of the Home Builders Federation, has said. “To meet the ever more challenging carbon reductions set by the government, we will see solar on the overwhelming majority of new homes, though it is not appropriate in every situation,” he added.
In conclusion, the UK’s solar mandate represents a practical balance between environmental ambition and economic reality. Its success depends on addressing implementation (实施) challenges while maintaining flexibility for alternative solutions. By doing so, the UK can solidify its leadership in sustainable housing and inspire global emulation.
28.How does the author introduce the UK’s solar panel policy in paragraph 1?
A.By quoting historical data. B.By defining technical terms.
C.By criticizing opposition views. D.By comparing costs and benefits.
29.What is the primary reason for mentioning Scotland in the text?
A.To show its advanced solar technology. B.To prove the availability of solar adoption.
C.To warn of its slow progress in renewable energy. D.To emphasize its role in the policy-making.
30.Who expresses concerns about the policy’s financial impact?
A.An environmental campaigner. B.One construction industry worker.
C.One former government official. D.A solar panel businessman.
31.What does Steve Turner think of the solar mandate?
A.It’s mostly beneficial. B.It helps improve housing quality.
C.It’s useless for carbon cuts. D.It brings extra costs to builders.
D
A groundbreaking study reveals that simply observing visual art can significantly enhance well-being, with benefits extending beyond museums to hospitals and even virtual settings. Published in The Journal of Positive Psychology, the research synthesizes (综合) 38 studies involving 6,805 participants, offering the first comprehensive analysis of art’s therapeutic potential.
Previous research has suggested that viewing art might influence mood or stress, but the research was limited and inconsistent, they say. This study examined decades of scattered (分散的) research, providing for the first time a clear and comprehensive overview of when, where and why art viewing is used to promote well-being.
Led by psychologists from the University of Vienna, Trinity College Dublin, and Humboldt University, the study highlights how artworks like The Starry Night and The Scream improve eudemonic well-being — linked to life meaning and personal growth. The effects were consistent across diverse formats, including paintings, sculptures, and digital displays.
These benefits were observed in a variety of locations — in museums and galleries as well as clinics and hospital settings and also through the medium of virtual reality. A wide range of art types including figurative and abstract paintings, photography, and sculpture were found to improve well-being.
“Art is often seen as a luxury,” notes lead author MacKenzie Trupp, at the University of Vienna, “but our findings position it as an accessible, low-cost well-being tool.”
Claire Howlin, assistant professor of Trinity College, added, “While the benefits of creating art are well-documented, the impacts of viewing art have been overlooked despite its daily accessibility.” The World Health Organization’s 2019 recommendation to pair art with clinical care aligns (使一致) with these findings, as art addresses core human needs for meaning and identity.
With European health departments seeking evidence-based art interventions, this review paves the way for large-scale implementation. From Van Gogh masterpieces to hospital corridor installations, art proves to be a universal resource for mental wellness.
32.Why does the author mention the previous research on appreciating art?
A.To criticize its limitation. B.To highlight new findings.
C.To prove art is inconsistent. D.To compare different studies.
33.What does the underlined word “eudemonic” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Right-based. B.Wealth-supported. C.Value-related. D.Passion-driven.
34.What can we learn from Claire Howlin’s words?
A.Clinical care should replace art. B.Viewing art is undervalued.
C.Art is hard to appreciate. D.Few people fully access art.
35.What can be a suitable title for the text?
A.Visual Art Is a Costly Luxury B.Creating Art Matters Much
C.Art Can Give Meaning to Life D.Viewing Art Boosts Well-being

阅读下面短文, 从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Last night, I heard a story that left me thinking: a friend was driving home late on a rainy day when a cat suddenly dashed out from the shadows. Before he could put on the brakes, he hit the cat. As he stood by the side of the road, shaken, his first thought was: “It was just an accident — I didn’t mean it.” 36 The question has stuck with me like a fish bone in the throat.
Neuroscience offers a clue: our brains are wired to protect our sense of being a “good person.” 37 A similar phrase is “I had no choice”, which also allows us to avoid facing the complexity of our decisions.
38 In the days that followed, he couldn’t shake the guilt. He replayed the drive endlessly in his mind, and gradually, a different truth emerged: he had been tired, he’d taken a shortcut that he knew was poorly lit, and he had been checking a text message just moments before. 39 In the end, he posted about the incident online, no longer calling it an “accident”, and even made a donation to a local animal rescue.
His story reveals a crucial truth: accidents are often the result of a series of choices we make rather than pure randomness. In our daily life, we use “it is an accident” constantly. 40 More often than not, we cannot blame the rain, the cat’s sudden dash, or any other external factor — there are no real excuses. Instead, we must separate choices from accidents. True responsibility lies in acknowledging our choices.
A.These set the stage for the tragedy.
B.How can we lighten our moral load?
C.We truly bear no responsibility for the outcome.
D.But the label “accident” offered him no real comfort.
E.Life may happen to us, but it doesn’t fully excuse us.
F.Why do we reach for the word “accident” so quickly?
G.Calling something an “accident” often serves this purpose.

All my life I’ve been bad at sports, so I never joined my friends’ sports games. “Hating sports” was core to my 41 .
Last year, a friend invited me to a kickabout — a casual football game. Had we been less close, I might have made 42 . Instead I turned up, determined to keep far from the ball. To my great 43 , I enjoyed myself. Rather than hanging around on the 44 , I got swept up in the game. Since then, kickabout has become one of my hobbies. A year later, our amateur kickabout team has 45 from only five friends to 40 members. We meet at our local sports center every other Sunday. What 46 me turning up every time? It is the joy of challenging myself, with no 47 of being skilled or professional.
Why does it feel so 48 to be bad at something? Karen Walrond, the author of the book In Defense of Dabbling, thinks that being an amateur was not always 49 . Walrond explains that even if you don’t make obvious 50 , you can still benefit in other ways. These benefits often 51 into your daily life. For example, although Walrond finds traditional meditation (禅修) challenging, she achieves a mindful state when fully 52 in this activity she enjoys.
Focusing on the process helps people 53 perfectionism and enjoy the experience. This is the 54 I have discovered: You don’t need to be skilled at something to love it. 55 , loving it is all that matters.

Chinese landscape painting, known as shanshui (“mountain-water”) painting, holds 56 unique position in global art history. Unlike Western perspectives that focus on human subjects, traditional Chinese 57 (paint) viewed nature as the ultimate teacher.
It originated in the Wei, Jin and Southern and Northern Dynasties, and flourished in the Sui and Tang, 58 (reach) its artistic peak in the Song and Yuan dynasties with richer themes and techniques. The creation process 59 (reflect) Daoist philosophies for centuries. They often layered light and heavy ink strokes to mimic the subtle changes of mountains and clouds, filling each piece 60 a sense of dynamic tranquility (宁静). Artists would meditate for days before picking up their brushes, seeking harmony between ink and paper. 61 makes these works timeless is that they capture not just scenery, but the artist’s 62 (spirit) dialogue with nature.
Modern conservationists now use these paintings as historical records. A Song Dynasty scroll 63 (preserve) in the Palace Museum, for instance, helped ecologists restore native plants around West Lake. This interplay between art and science confirms the enduring value of traditional culture.
“These paintings are bridges,” says curator Li Wei, 64 team has cataloged over 1,000 works. “They 65 (close) link up past wisdom with present challenges.”

67.阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
In the winter of my final year in high school, I was going through one of the toughest periods of my life. Everything seemed to go wrong at the same time. The small family store we relied on was on the edge of closing, and my father’s company shut down without warning, leaving him unexpectedly unemployed. He returned home earlier than usual every day, pretending nothing had changed, as though calmness alone could hold our fragile world together. Meanwhile, I failed an important exam that I had once regarded as my ticket to a better future.
The failure struck me with unexpected force. I had always assumed that hard work would naturally lead to success; however, the red marks scattered across my paper told a different story. For days, I avoided eye contact with my classmates, whose cheerful conversations about universities sounded distant, almost unreal.
At home, silence gradually became the norm. My father spent long hours sitting at the dining table, staring at his laptop screen in quiet concentration. Sometimes I noticed him hesitate before closing it, seemingly reluctant to face yet another rejection email. Nevertheless, whenever I asked how things were going, he would force a reassuring smile and reply, “Don’t worry. I’ll handle it.”
One evening, while helping him organize old receipts for the store, I came across a small notebook filled with his neat handwriting. On the first page, he had written, “No matter how fragile the situation seems, never lose courage.” I suddenly realized that beneath his composed appearance, he had been fighting his own battle silently and steadfastly.
That night, I lay awake, reflecting on the exam I had failed. Perhaps the result did not signify the end; perhaps it was merely a test of my determination. I made up my mind to take the exam again and prove to myself that I could do better.
The next morning, I began reviewing my mistakes with renewed seriousness. Instead of surrendering to shame, I analyzed each error carefully. Weeks passed. Doubt would occasionally return, whispering that my efforts might be in vain. Yet I persisted, remembering the words in my father’s notebook.
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。
Finally, the day came when the results of the retake exam were posted.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Holding the result sheet, I hurried back to the store.
