Historic Sites in Paris
Paris is a city full of sites of different times and architectural styles. Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past.
Eiffel Tower
Presented as part of the 1889 World Exposition in Paris, the Eiffel Tower has become the city’s most famous attraction. It can be reached on Line 6 or Line 8 of the Paris Metro by Bir-Hakeim or Trocadéro stations. If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top. The best moments are right after it first opens on weekdays.
Notre-Dame Cathedral
Dating back to the 12th century, the Notre-Dame Cathedral has long towered alongside the banks of the Seine River. With its complicated Gothic architectural details, it represents Parisian religion and architecture. Unfortunately, a fire broke out on April 15, 2019, destroying part of it. Visitors are not allowed to enter now.
Louvre Museum
Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval period to the present. It can easily be reached on Line 1 from the Palais Royal-Musée du Louvre station. It is closed on Tuesdays as well as January 1, May 1, and December 25 each year.
Arc de Triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe serves as a national symbol of France, which was built by Napoleon I in celebration of the victory at the Battle of Austerlitz. Take Line 1, 2, or 6 to Charles de Gaulle-Etoile station and you will see the Arc de Triomphe. Visitors can purchase tickets for a tour to the top to enjoy the views of the city.
1. Which is the best time to visit Eiffel Tower?
A. At 2:00 p.m., Sunday. B. At 9:00 a.m., Monday.
C. At 11:00 a.m., Tuesday. D. At 10:00 a.m., Saturday.
2. Where should visitors go if they are interested in art history?
A. Eiffel Tower. B. Louvre Museum.
C. Arc de Triomphe. D. Notre-Dame Cathedral.
3. What do the four spots have in common?
A. They are all reachable by Paris Metro.
B. They all require purchasing tickets for entry.
C. They are all symbols of Paris’s history and culture.
D. They are all currently open to the public for full access.

【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章介绍了巴黎四大历史景点:埃菲尔铁塔、巴黎圣母院、卢浮宫、凯旋门,说明各景点背景、特色、交通及参观注意事项。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top.( 如果可能的话,请尽量避开高峰时段(上午10点至下午5点)以及周末前来此地,这样您就能充分享受从塔顶观赏到的美景了)”可知,去埃菲尔铁塔游玩的最佳时间是周一上午9点。故选B。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval period to the present.(卢浮宫博物馆是世界上最为著名的艺术博物馆之一,在这里您可以领略这座城市从中世纪时期到现代时期丰富的绘画历史)”可知,如果游客对艺术史感兴趣,他们应该去卢浮宫博物馆。故选B。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past.(以下便是其中一些极具代表性的景点,它们对于理解这座城市复杂的历史进程至关重要)”且每个景点都代表巴黎的历史和文化象征(埃菲尔铁塔为1889年世博会地标,巴黎圣母院为12世纪哥特式建筑代表,卢浮宫展示艺术史,凯旋门为法国国家象征)。由此可知,这四个景点都代表着巴黎的历史和文化。故选C。

The Forbidden City is well known for being full of cultural and historical Chinese relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City does not just focus on the stories of the past.
Instead, the documentary movie, which came out on CCTV-9, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiques.
The stories are told at a slow and relaxing pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (手艺) in the restorers. “Years of routine work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented. “Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance..., all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.”
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play the guitar and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City tells us that many people’s ideas about antique restorers are wrong, allowing them to realize that the restorers are not dull, old professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
4. According to the passage, what’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
5. What can we learn from what Wang Jin says in paragraph 4?
A. He often gets tired of his work.
B. Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.
C. There is no need to do restoration work fast.
D. It takes years of hard work to adapt to antique restoration.
6. Which word best describes the restorers of relics and antiques?
A. Dull. B. Humorous. C. Enthusiastic. D. Ordinary.
7. What is the purpose of the bicycle-riding scene in the documentary?
A. To encourage the young to consider a career in antique restoration.
B. To show the strange hobbies of young antique restorers.
C. To remind the audience of the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.
D. To show the different image of antique restorers.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【导语】文章展现了故宫文物修复师的真实工作与精神风貌。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段的句子“Instead, the documentary movie, which came out on CCTV-9, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiques.(相反,这部在中央电视台纪录频道播出的纪录片关注的是普通人——文物修复师。)”可知,这部纪录片的主要目的是让人们关注中国的文物修复师。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的句子““If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.(古钟修复专家王津说:“如果你选择了这份工作,你就得长时间坐在椅子上工作。你需要保持安静,习惯安静。”)”可知,文物修复师需要有耐心和内心的平静。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段的句子“But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play the guitar and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.(但与人们普遍认为的严肃专家整天严肃刻板的印象不同,这部纪录片展现了修复师们的热情。在漫长的一天修复工作后,他们会弹吉他、互相开玩笑。)”可知,Enthusiastic(热情) 最能描述文物修复师。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。 根据最后一段的句子“Masters in the Forbidden City tells us that many people’s ideas about antique restorers are wrong, allowing them to realize that the restorers are not dull, old professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.(《我在故宫修文物》告诉我们,很多人对文物修复师的看法是错误的,让他们意识到修复师不是沉闷的老教授,而是40多岁、30多岁甚至20多岁的年轻人,看起来很赏心悦目。)”以及骑自行车的年轻女修复师的场景可知,这个场景是为了展示文物修复师不同的形象。
C
Israel was accused of using white phosphorus bombs (白磷弹), a banned bomb, in the Palestine-Israel conflict in October. However, the Israeli military later claimed in a statement that it didn’t use such a weapon, reported Reuters.
White phosphorus is a highly free-burning chemical that can create intense heat, light and smoke, reaching over 1,000℃ when burned. The flame it produces is difficult to put out, leading to deadly burns on the human body.
The chemical is also poisonous. Those coming into contact with it may suffer heart, kidney or bone damage. And bomb-hit areas are likely to be polluted by white phosphorus, resulting in long-term environmental damage.
The news sparked public concern about destructive weapons. International Humanitarian Law (IHL) bans any weapon “of a nature to cause overmuch injury or unnecessary suffering”. Such a weapon can cause indiscriminate harm, injuring or killing soldiers as well as civilians.
The Geneva Conventions (《日内瓦公约》) and their Additional Protocols, which form the core of International Humanitarian Law, have set requirements for all countries to follow about how wars are carried out. For example, the use, production, stockpiling (储备) and selling of biological and chemical weapons are forbidden.
Chemical weapons, such as mustard gas, are poisonous. They can cause temporary or permanent damage to people and have various effects, such as severe eye pain, breathing difficulty, and blisters (水疱) on the skin. Biological weapons, usually developed from viruses or bacteria, attack the human immune system, often with deadly consequences.
Other international conventions also have made relevant rules, which apply to the countries that have agreed to them. For example, according to the IHL database, any action expected to result in widespread, long-lasting destruction of the environment is prohibited.
“During the Vietnam War, the US military employed a highly effective defoliant (落叶剂) called Agent Orange.” Zhang Gaosheng, a researcher at China Institute of International Studies, told CCTV News. “This resulted in the destruction of about 20 percent of Vietnam’s forests, leading to significant damage to the ecosystem.” The usage of the chemical was subsequently banned, he added.
8. What is the primary concern regarding the use of white phosphorus bombs in wars?
A. The intense heat and light produced.
B. The difficulty in putting out the flame.
C. The harm to people and the environment.
D. The damage to buildings and infrastructure.
9. What does paragraph 6 mainly talk about?
A. The development of biochemical weapons.
B. The long-lasting impact of biochemical weapons.
C. The urgency of prohibiting biochemical weapons.
D. The consequences of using biochemical weapons.
10. What is Zhang Gaosheng’s attitude to the usage of the defoliant?
A. Favorable. B. Opposed.
C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.
11. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To call on public not to use weapons.
B. To appeal for peace between Palestine and Israel.
C. To give the reasons why the use of some weapons is being stopped.
D. To introduce the chemical weapons used in the Israeli military.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章从以色列被指控在10月份的巴以冲突中使用白磷弹这种被禁止的炸弹谈起,解释了白磷弹的严重危害,并就此介绍了国际人道主义法禁止造成过度伤害或不必要痛苦武器的规定,以及《日内瓦公约》等对化学和生物武器的禁止。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The flame it produces is difficult to put out, leading to deadly burns on the human body.(它产生的火焰很难熄灭,导致对人体的致命烧伤)”和第三段中“Those coming into contact with it may suffer heart, kidney or bone damage. And bomb-hit areas are likely to be polluted by white phosphorus, resulting in long-term environmental damage.(那些接触到它的人可能会遭受心脏、肾脏或骨骼损伤。而且被炸弹击中的地区很可能受到白磷的污染,造成长期的环境破坏)”可知,在战争中使用白磷弹的主要问题是对人类和环境的严重危害。故选C项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第六段“Chemical weapons, such as mustard gas, are poisonous. They can cause temporary or permanent damage to people and have various effects, such as severe eye pain, breathing difficulty, and blisters (水疱) on the skin. Biological weapons, usually developed from viruses or bacteria, attack the human immune system, often with deadly consequences.(化学武器,如芥子气,是有毒的。它们会对人造成暂时或永久的伤害,并有各种各样的影响,比如严重的眼睛疼痛、呼吸困难和皮肤起泡。生物武器通常由病毒或细菌发展而来,攻击人体免疫系统,往往造成致命后果)”可知,本段主要介绍了使用生化武器的后果。故选D项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“This resulted in the destruction of about 20 percent of Vietnam’s forests, leading to significant damage to the ecosystem.(这导致越南约20%的森林遭到破坏,导致生态系统受到严重破坏)”可知,张高胜认为落叶剂的使用严重破坏森林及其生态系统。由此推知,他对落叶剂的使用持反对态度。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章从以色列被指控在10月份的巴以冲突中使用白磷弹这种被禁止的炸弹谈起,解释了白磷弹的严重危害,并就此介绍了国际人道主义法禁止造成过度伤害或不必要痛苦武器的规定,以及《日内瓦公约》等对化学和生物武器的禁止。文章主要突出了这些被禁止使用的武器的杀伤性和危害,由此可知,文章的目的在于解释一些武器被禁止使用的原因。故选C项。
D
In the crystal-clear waters near Talamone, Italy, an extraordinary sight awaits beneath the Mediterranean Sea’s surface. Mermaids, towering giants and enormous sculptural eyes gaze upward from the ocean floor, creating an otherworldly underwater gallery that serves a crucial environmental purpose. This unique initiative represents one innovative fisherman’s determined effort to protect vital fishing grounds from the disastrous impact of commercial fishing nets that threaten marine ecosystems.
The underwater sculpture garden operates on a simple yet effective principle that strategically placed artistic installations (安装工程) work alongside concrete blocks to physically obstruct and break the fishing nets that destroy marine life. These massive fishing nets, dragged across the seafloor by commercial vessels, destroy delicate underwater habitats and deplete fish populations that local fishing communities depend upon for their livelihood.
The project has evolved beyond its initial conservation goals to become a cooperative effort involving local educational institutions and young artists. Students from a high school in nearby Grosseto have actively participated in the initiative, creating specialized sculptural works designed to serve two purposes. These student-crafted pieces not only contribute to the anti-fishing barrier system but also provide alternative habitats for marine creatures. By offering the marine species a safe shelter within the sculptural installations, the project helps reduce their vulnerability to illegal fishing practices while supporting natural population recovery.
The fisherman behind the initiative recognized that traditional regulatory approaches alone were not enough to fulfill the environmental commitment. And the sculptures themselves have captured international attention while serving practical conservation purposes. Each piece sunk to the Mediterranean floor contributes to a growing underwater museum that tells the story of local efforts to preserve marine biodiversity.
As the sculpture garden continues to expand, it serves as an inspiring example of how art and environmental protection can work together to create lasting positive change in marine ecosystems.
12. What is the purpose of the underwater sculptures?
A. To protect underwater ecosystems. B. To promote local fishing industry.
C. To raise environmental awareness. D. To create an attractive artistic gallery.
13. What does the underlined word “deplete” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Carefully manage. B. Gradually relocate.
C. Significantly reduce. D. Successfully protect.
14. What can we learn about the project in paragraph 3?
A. The project calls for more support from students and artists.
B. The project has expanded into a community-based initiative.
C. The sculptures have managed to stop practices of illegal fishing.
D. The sculptures show superior artistic skills of the young participants.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Art in the depths: A New Fashion in Italy
B. Sculpting a Shield: Art Meets Conservation
C. From Gallery to Fishery: The Power of Students
D. Guarding the Deep: Traditional Ways of Protection
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了意大利一位渔民通过在地中海海底放置雕塑,将艺术与环保相结合,阻挡破坏性渔网、保护海洋生态系统的创新举措。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第一段“This unique initiative represents one innovative fisherman’s determined effort to protect vital fishing grounds from the disastrous impact of commercial fishing nets that threaten marine ecosystems. (这一独特的举措代表了一位创新渔民保护重要渔场免受威胁海洋生态系统的商业捕鱼网灾难性影响的坚定努力。)”以及第二段“The underwater sculpture garden operates on a simple yet effective principle that strategically placed artistic installations (安装工程) work alongside concrete blocks to physically obstruct and break the fishing nets that destroy marine life. (水下雕塑花园遵循一个简单而有效的原则,即战略性地放置艺术装置与混凝土块一起,从物理上阻挡和破坏破坏海洋生物的渔网。)”可知,水下雕塑的目的是保护水下生态系统。故选A项。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“These massive fishing nets, dragged across the seafloor by commercial vessels, destroy delicate underwater habitats and deplete fish populations that local fishing communities depend upon for their livelihood. (这些巨大的渔网被商船拖过海底,破坏了脆弱的水下栖息地,并使当地渔业社区赖以生存的鱼类数量____。)”可知,渔网对鱼类数量造成的影响是负面的,结合选项可知,应该是“使鱼类数量减少”,所以deplete意思是“显著减少”。故选C项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The project has evolved beyond its initial conservation goals to become a cooperative effort involving local educational institutions and young artists. Students from a high school in nearby Grosseto have actively participated in the initiative, creating specialized sculptural works designed to serve two purposes. (该项目已经超越了最初的保护目标,发展成为一项涉及当地教育机构和年轻艺术家的合作努力。附近格罗塞托一所高中的学生积极参与了这项倡议,创作了具有两种用途的专门雕塑作品。)”可知,该项目已经发展成为一个社区性的倡议,涉及到当地的教育机构和年轻艺术家。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据最后一段“As the sculpture garden continues to expand, it serves as an inspiring example of how art and environmental protection can work together to create lasting positive change in marine ecosystems. (随着雕塑花园的不断扩大,它成为艺术与环境保护如何共同努力,为海洋生态系统带来持久积极变化的一个鼓舞人心的例子。)”可知,文章主要讲述了水下雕塑花园如何将艺术与海洋保护相结合,所以B项“Sculpting a Shield: Art Meets Conservation (塑造盾牌:艺术与保护相遇)”是最佳标题。故选B项。

【答案】例文
A Stray Cat on Campus: Caution vs. Compassion
Recently, a stray cat on campus has sparked a heated debate. Some argue that it should be driven away, as the cat often wanders into classrooms, disrupting lessons and posing a risk of scratching students. However, others believe that providing the cat with a shelter and offering care to the vulnerable reflect our humanity and help cultivate students’ empathy.
Personally, I support the second view. Instead of expelling the cat, we can create a designated area for it, keeping it away from teaching buildings while ensuring its basic needs are met. Additionally, regular health checks by volunteers would reduce potential risks. This way, we can balance care for the cat with campus safety.
【解析】
【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生总结学校出现的流浪猫引发的两方观点,并阐明自己的立场。

47. 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。
Gabriel had always been fascinated by robots. His mother, however, did not think much of it. She often criticized him, urging him to focus on his schoolwork instead of those“ useless machines”, as she called them. She wanted him to spend more time on his books, and less time lost in the world of robotics. He, however, always worked quietly on parts, trying to create inventions that could solve everyday problems.
One day, Gabriel came back from school, bursting through the front door, holding a shining award in his hand. The gas detection robot he had built for months had just won first place in the regional competition. His heart raced as he imagined his mother would be proud this time.
“Mom! Look! I won!” he cried. His mother, standing at the kitchen counter, looked briefly. She sighed, “That’s nice, Gabriel, but I still don’t see what good it will do you. It’s not going to help you with your grades or get you into college. You need to focus on something more practical.” Her voice showed no interest. Gabriel remained quiet, determined to prove that what he was doing had value.
One evening, as the delicious smell of dinner floated through the house, an unexpected danger was quietly closing. Gabriel’s mother had been busy in the kitchen but had forgotten to turn off the gas. Unaware of the coming threat, she had wandered into the living room, settling down comfortably in front of the TV. The gas continued to escape, silently filling the air. The house was on the edge of a disaster.
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。
Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house. Gabriel’s gas detection robot had sensed the leak and sprung into action. The shrill sound jolted his mother from her TV reverie, her heart pounding as she realized the danger they were in. Quickly, she rushed to the kitchen, turned off the gas, and opened all the windows to let the fresh air disperse the dangerous fumes. As the alarm ceased, she stood there, breathing a sigh of relief, suddenly understanding the significance of Gabriel’s invention. It wasn’t just a toy or a useless machine; it was a lifesaver.
Gabriel’s mother held the robot gently in her arms, waiting for Gabriel to get back from school. She couldn’t wait to tell him how his creation had prevented a potential tragedy. When Gabriel finally walked through the door, his mother greeted him with tears in her eyes and a smile on her face. “Gabriel, you were right,” she said, hugging him tightly. “This robot isn’t just a hobby; it’s something that can protect us, make our lives safer. I’m sorry I didn’t see it before.” Gabriel’s heart swelled with pride and joy. From that day on, his mother became his biggest supporter, encouraging him to pursue his passion for robotics and recognizing the value of his inventions in making the world a better, safer place.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述Gabriel热爱机器人却遭母亲反对,他默默努力终获机器人比赛一等奖,但母亲仍不以为意。某晚,家中煤气泄漏,母亲却全然不知。

Historic Sites in Paris
Paris is a city full of sites of different times and architectural styles. Here are some of these famous spots that are essential to understand the city’s complicated past.
Eiffel Tower
Presented as part of the 1889 World Exposition in Paris, the Eiffel Tower has become the city’s most famous attraction. It can be reached on Line 6 or Line 8 of the Paris Metro by Bir-Hakeim or Trocadéro stations. If possible, avoid visiting this spot at peak hours (10:00 a.m.-5:00 p.m.) or on weekends, so you can make the most of your visit to enjoy the views from the top. The best moments are right after it first opens on weekdays.
Notre-Dame Cathedral
Dating back to the 12th century, the Notre-Dame Cathedral has long towered alongside the banks of the Seine River. With its complicated Gothic architectural details, it represents Parisian religion and architecture. Unfortunately, a fire broke out on April 15, 2019, destroying part of it. Visitors are not allowed to enter now.
Louvre Museum
Louvre Museum is one of the most famous art museums in the world where you can witness the city’s rich painting history from the medieval period to the present. It can easily be reached on Line 1 from the Palais Royal-Musée du Louvre station. It is closed on Tuesdays as well as January 1, May 1, and December 25 each year.
Arc de Triomphe
The Arc de Triomphe serves as a national symbol of France, which was built by Napoleon I in celebration of the victory at the Battle of Austerlitz. Take Line 1, 2, or 6 to Charles de Gaulle-Etoile station and you will see the Arc de Triomphe. Visitors can purchase tickets for a tour to the top to enjoy the views of the city.
1. Which is the best time to visit Eiffel Tower?
A. At 2:00 p.m., Sunday. B. At 9:00 a.m., Monday.
C. At 11:00 a.m., Tuesday. D. At 10:00 a.m., Saturday.
2. Where should visitors go if they are interested in art history?
A. Eiffel Tower. B. Louvre Museum.
C. Arc de Triomphe. D. Notre-Dame Cathedral.
3. What do the four spots have in common?
A. They are all reachable by Paris Metro.
B. They all require purchasing tickets for entry.
C. They are all symbols of Paris’s history and culture.
D. They are all currently open to the public for full access.
B
The Forbidden City is well known for being full of cultural and historical Chinese relics. But Masters in the Forbidden City does not just focus on the stories of the past.
Instead, the documentary movie, which came out on CCTV-9, focuses on ordinary people — the restorers of relics and antiques.
The stories are told at a slow and relaxing pace, reflecting the restorers’ work. Restoration of cultural relics and antiques can be time-consuming, and sometimes boring. Yet these restorers’ patience and peace of mind are especially precious in a society where everything is changing so fast.
“If you choose this job, you have to stand hours of work sitting on a chair. You need to be quiet and get used to being quiet,” says Wang Jin, an ancient clock repair expert.
A touching part of the documentary is the spirit of craftsmanship (手艺) in the restorers. “Years of routine work requires not only skill, but also faith and spirit,” China Daily commented. “Looking for precision and perfection, devoting yourself to work, patience, endurance..., all these qualities come from the craftsman spirit.”
But unlike the popular idea of serious experts who sit around being serious, the documentary shows the enthusiasm of the restorers. They play the guitar and make jokes about each other after a long day of restoration work.
One scene that has been very popular with Internet users features a young female restorer riding a bicycle through the empty Forbidden City on a Monday. While she is doing this, a narrator says, “The last person to do this was Puyi, the last emperor of the Qing Dynasty.”
Masters in the Forbidden City tells us that many people’s ideas about antique restorers are wrong, allowing them to realize that the restorers are not dull, old professors, but people in their 40s, 30s and even 20s who can be quite pleasing to the eye.
4. According to the passage, what’s the main purpose of the documentary Masters in the Forbidden City?
A. To show people how antiques are restored.
B. To display relics seldom seen by ordinary people.
C. To draw attention to Chinese antique restorers.
D. To praise the craftsmanship of Chinese antique restorers.
5. What can we learn from what Wang Jin says in paragraph 4?
A. He often gets tired of his work.
B. Antique restorers need to be patient and peaceful.

Israel was accused of using white phosphorus bombs (白磷弹), a banned bomb, in the Palestine-Israel conflict in October. However, the Israeli military later claimed in a statement that it didn’t use such a weapon, reported Reuters.
White phosphorus is a highly free-burning chemical that can create intense heat, light and smoke, reaching over 1,000℃ when burned. The flame it produces is difficult to put out, leading to deadly burns on the human body.
The chemical is also poisonous. Those coming into contact with it may suffer heart, kidney or bone damage. And bomb-hit areas are likely to be polluted by white phosphorus, resulting in long-term environmental damage.
The news sparked public concern about destructive weapons. International Humanitarian Law (IHL) bans any weapon “of a nature to cause overmuch injury or unnecessary suffering”. Such a weapon can cause indiscriminate harm, injuring or killing soldiers as well as civilians.
The Geneva Conventions (《日内瓦公约》) and their Additional Protocols, which form the core of International Humanitarian Law, have set requirements for all countries to follow about how wars are carried out. For example, the use, production, stockpiling (储备) and selling of biological and chemical weapons are forbidden.
Chemical weapons, such as mustard gas, are poisonous. They can cause temporary or permanent damage to people and have various effects, such as severe eye pain, breathing difficulty, and blisters (水疱) on the skin. Biological weapons, usually developed from viruses or bacteria, attack the human immune system, often with deadly consequences.
Other international conventions also have made relevant rules, which apply to the countries that have agreed to them. For example, according to the IHL database, any action expected to result in widespread, long-lasting destruction of the environment is prohibited.
“During the Vietnam War, the US military employed a highly effective defoliant (落叶剂) called Agent Orange.” Zhang Gaosheng, a researcher at China Institute of International Studies, told CCTV News. “This resulted in the destruction of about 20 percent of Vietnam’s forests, leading to significant damage to the ecosystem.” The usage of the chemical was subsequently banned, he added.
8. What is the primary concern regarding the use of white phosphorus bombs in wars?
A. The intense heat and light produced.
B. The difficulty in putting out the flame.
C. The harm to people and the environment.
D. The damage to buildings and infrastructure.
9. What does paragraph 6 mainly talk about?
A. The development of biochemical weapons.
B. The long-lasting impact of biochemical weapons.
C. The urgency of prohibiting biochemical weapons.
D. The consequences of using biochemical weapons.
10. What is Zhang Gaosheng’s attitude to the usage of the defoliant?
A. Favorable. B. Opposed.
C. Indifferent. D. Doubtful.
11. What’s the purpose of the passage?
A. To call on public not to use weapons.
B. To appeal for peace between Palestine and Israel.
C. To give the reasons why the use of some weapons is being stopped.
D. To introduce the chemical weapons used in the Israeli military.
D
In the crystal-clear waters near Talamone, Italy, an extraordinary sight awaits beneath the Mediterranean Sea’s surface. Mermaids, towering giants and enormous sculptural eyes gaze upward from the ocean floor, creating an otherworldly underwater gallery that serves a crucial environmental purpose. This unique initiative represents one innovative fisherman’s determined effort to protect vital fishing grounds from the disastrous impact of commercial fishing nets that threaten marine ecosystems.
The underwater sculpture garden operates on a simple yet effective principle that strategically placed artistic installations (安装工程) work alongside concrete blocks to physically obstruct and break the fishing nets that destroy marine life. These massive fishing nets, dragged across the seafloor by commercial vessels, destroy delicate underwater habitats and deplete fish populations that local fishing communities depend upon for their livelihood.
The project has evolved beyond its initial conservation goals to become a cooperative effort involving local educational institutions and young artists. Students from a high school in nearby Grosseto have actively participated in the initiative, creating specialized sculptural works designed to serve two purposes. These student-crafted pieces not only contribute to the anti-fishing barrier system but also provide alternative habitats for marine creatures. By offering the marine species a safe shelter within the sculptural installations, the project helps reduce their vulnerability to illegal fishing practices while supporting natural population recovery.
The fisherman behind the initiative recognized that traditional regulatory approaches alone were not enough to fulfill the environmental commitment. And the sculptures themselves have captured international attention while serving practical conservation purposes. Each piece sunk to the Mediterranean floor contributes to a growing underwater museum that tells the story of local efforts to preserve marine biodiversity.
As the sculpture garden continues to expand, it serves as an inspiring example of how art and environmental protection can work together to create lasting positive change in marine ecosystems.
12. What is the purpose of the underwater sculptures?
A. To protect underwater ecosystems. B. To promote local fishing industry.
C. To raise environmental awareness. D. To create an attractive artistic gallery.
13. What does the underlined word “deplete” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Carefully manage. B. Gradually relocate.
C. Significantly reduce. D. Successfully protect.
14. What can we learn about the project in paragraph 3?
A. The project calls for more support from students and artists.
B. The project has expanded into a community-based initiative.
C. The sculptures have managed to stop practices of illegal fishing.
D. The sculptures show superior artistic skills of the young participants.
15. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Art in the depths: A New Fashion in Italy
B. Sculpting a Shield: Art Meets Conservation
C. From Gallery to Fishery: The Power of Students
D. Guarding the Deep: Traditional Ways of Protection

47. 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。
Gabriel had always been fascinated by robots. His mother, however, did not think much of it. She often criticized him, urging him to focus on his schoolwork instead of those“ useless machines”, as she called them. She wanted him to spend more time on his books, and less time lost in the world of robotics. He, however, always worked quietly on parts, trying to create inventions that could solve everyday problems.
One day, Gabriel came back from school, bursting through the front door, holding a shining award in his hand. The gas detection robot he had built for months had just won first place in the regional competition. His heart raced as he imagined his mother would be proud this time.
“Mom! Look! I won!” he cried. His mother, standing at the kitchen counter, looked briefly. She sighed, “That’s nice, Gabriel, but I still don’t see what good it will do you. It’s not going to help you with your grades or get you into college. You need to focus on something more practical.” Her voice showed no interest. Gabriel remained quiet, determined to prove that what he was doing had value.
One evening, as the delicious smell of dinner floated through the house, an unexpected danger was quietly closing. Gabriel’s mother had been busy in the kitchen but had forgotten to turn off the gas. Unaware of the coming threat, she had wandered into the living room, settling down comfortably in front of the TV. The gas continued to escape, silently filling the air. The house was on the edge of a disaster.
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。
Suddenly, a loud alarm rang through the house.
