Qiqi’s design is based on the famous Bronze Colt-shaped Zun of Lord Li (蠡驹尊) from the Western Zhou Dynasty. It has a dark colour and wears a high hair bun. Qiqi looks calm, polite, and full of big dreams. Jiji takes its design from the Han Dynasty. Its body looks like the famous Bronze Galloping Horse (铜奔马). Look at its wings! They spread wide for the horse to fly high. The design of the wings comes from an ancient bronze umbrella handle. How brave and confident Jiji looks! Chichi shows the style of the Tang Dynasty. It is a Three-maned Horse. Its mane (鬃毛) is shaped into three bunches. This style was for the highest-ranking horses long ago. Chichi looks brave and strong. Chengcheng is a Przewalski’s horse (普氏野马)—the only wild horse species alive today! China now has the world’s largest number of them. This is a great achievement in wildlife protection. Chengcheng looks strong and fit, showing the good relationship between humans and the earth. These four horses bring joy and hope.

Many kids feel a mix of willingness and fear when they want to speak up. You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger. Next, try to raise your hand once or twice a week at school. You might ask a friend to give you a smile. It’s easier to be brave when someone’s cheering you on. Finally, when you have a question, tell yourself that your classmates may be curious about the same thing. That may help you feel more confident. That sounds frustrating. Your brothers and sisters may not realize how strongly you feel about this. Here are a few ideas. Make a special place. Find a place to keep your favorite toys. Ask a parent to help you think of a place that is just for your things. Talk it out. Have a calm dialogue with your brothers and sisters. You could say, “This toy is really important to me. Can we make a deal that you will ask before touching it?” Offer other toys. Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe. 28．Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from? A．Science news. B．Healthy lifestyles. C．Personality tests. D．Teenage problems. 29．What does the underlined word “included” mean? A．Accepted. B．Guilty. C．Praised. D．Nervous. 30．What can we learn from the passage? A．We can get our friends’ support if we raise our hands in class. B．We can share our favourite toys with others to keep them safe. C．Practicing speaking up at home can make us more confident in class. D．Communicating with our parents can help us protect our favourite toys. 【答案】28．D 29．A 30．C 【导语】本文是两封青少年求助信及对应的建议，分别讲述了Lily不敢课堂举手、Van的玩具被兄弟姐妹乱动的烦恼，并给出了解决办法。 28．文章围绕两位青少年的日常烦恼及建议展开，属于青少年问题类内容，最可能出自杂志的青少年问题部分。 29．表格最后一段“Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe.”说明分享一两件玩具，让兄弟姐妹依然感觉被接纳，同时自己的特殊玩具也能安全存放，“included”意为“被接纳、被接受”，与Accepted近义。 30．表格对Lily的建议部分“You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger.”表明在家练习举手发言能让你在课堂上更自信。 C The Dream Builder Finn’s younger brother, Leo, had a serious immune deficiency (免疫缺陷) disease, making the outside world a dangerous place. Finn saw the longing in Leo’s eyes when he talked about his own hikes or bike rides. Finn was a member of his school’s tech club. He’d built robots. One night, watching Leo get lost in a map, Finn had an idea: If Leo couldn’t go to the world, he would bring the world to Leo. He called this idea “The Dreamwalker.” It was about creating a personalized, sensory experience. Finn improved an old virtual reality (VR) headset, but the key was a pair of special gloves he engineered himself. They could simulate (模拟) the feeling of touching different things. Then came the hard part: building the “worlds”. For a week, Finn took a 360-degree camera on his hike. He didn’t just film; he recorded the sound of the river, the wind, and the birds. He reached out and touched hard stones, soft grass, and cold water, noting the exact sensation. Back in the lab, he synchronized (同步) the videos to the headset. He programmed the gloves: When Leo “touched” the river, some water produced by an improved computer cooling fan would hit his face, and the special gloves would help him feel the movement of the water. Then came the first test. Leo put on the headset and gloves, and started the program. He was silent for a minute. Then, “I can...feel the river!” he said. His smile widened behind the headset. For twenty minutes, Leo explored, reaching out, laughing as water hit his face by the “river”. Finn filmed Leo’s reaction, a joy he hadn’t seen in years. He realized that the highest purpose of technology and skill isn’t to win competitions or create new inventions. It’s to be a bridge. It’s to use your knowledge as a tool for understanding and to give someone you love the irreplaceable gift of an experience. He learned that the greatest engineering is the kind that connects one human heart to another. 31．Why was the outside world a dangerous place for Leo? A．Because he was too young. B．Because he had poor eyesight. C．Because he got lost easily outside. D．Because he had a serious disease. 32．What did Finn do for Leo? A．He created a set of sensory tools. B．He personalized a special robot. C．He recorded all of his bike rides. D．He bought a VR headset with nature programs. 33．What did Finn learn from this experience? A．Human connections are based on the development of technology. B．Technology finds its true value in enriching the life of loved ones. C．Diseases cannot hold back the dreams of those who never give up. D．Engineering can help people win awards and prizes in competitions. 【答案】31．D 32．A 33．B 【导语】本文是记叙文，讲述Finn为患有严重免疫缺陷疾病、无法外出的弟弟Leo，利用VR技术和自制传感手套打造“造梦行者”系统，让Leo体验户外世界的故事，最终Finn领悟到技术的最高价值是连接人心、丰富所爱之人的生活。 31．文中首句指出“Finn’s younger brother, Leo, had a serious immune deficiency disease, making the outside world a dangerous place”，说明 Leo 因患有严重疾病，外界对他而言很危险。 32．文中提到Finn改良了VR头显，还自制了特殊手套，打造了名为“The Dreamwalker”的个性化感官体验系统，这属于一套感官工具。 33．最后一段Finn意识到“the highest purpose of technology and skill isn’t to win competitions or create new inventions. It’s to be a bridge...to give someone you love the irreplaceable gift of an experience”，说明技术的真正价值在于丰富所爱之人的生活，与选项 B 表述一致 D How do people think differently? This has always been unusual. To search an answer, a scientist named J.P. Guilford started a famous study of creativity in the 1970s, known as the nine-dot puzzle. He asked the participants to connect all nine dots using only four straight lines, without lifting their pencils from the page. All the participants looked for solutions within the square they imagined. Only 20 percent managed to break out of the square and continue their lines in the white space around the dots, while the rest of them were blinded by the boundaries (边界) of the square. The results of Guilford’s study led him to a conclusion: creativity needs you to go outside the box. The idea was widely spread soon. Overnight, it seemed that creativity experts everywhere were teaching managers how to think outside the box. The idea was so popular that no one thought of checking the facts. No one, that is, before two different research teams—Clarke Burmham with Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba with Robert Weisberg—did another experiment. To make sure that Guilford’s study is correct, both teams divided participants into two groups. The first group was given the same instructions as the participants in Guilford’s experiment. The second group was told to draw the lines outside the imagined box. Guess what? Only a little more than 20 percent solved the puzzle, which is no big difference from the result of Guilford’s experiment. Let’s look a little more closely at the surprising result. Solving this problem requires people to think outside the box. However, direct and clear instructions to “think outside the box” do not help participants improve their performance. The widely spread idea that out-of-the-box thinking makes people more creative can, in some way, be dangerous. After all, with one simple but brilliant experiment, researchers had proved that the connection between thinking outside the box and creativity was a misunderstanding. 34．The nine-dot puzzle study is mainly focused on ________. A．how people do things in real life B．how people think in different ways C．what people see in the experiment D．what knowledge people have learned 35．Why did the two research teams do the following experiment? A．To find out the main idea of Guiford’s study. B．To show different opinions against Guiford’s study. C．To collect supporting details for Guiford’s study. D．To double-check the correctness of Guiford’s study. 36．From the passage, we can learn that ________. A．boundaries sometimes make people think less creatively B．clear instructions influence how people solve problems C．few people performed better with the clear instructions D．the methods of nine-dot puzzle study need to be improved 37．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Puzzle Solving: A Key To Creativity B．Nine-Dot Puzzle: A Magic Test C．Thinking Outside the Box: A Misleading Idea D．Creative Thinking: An Unusual Topic 【答案】34．B 35．D 36．C 37．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了九点谜题实验及其对创造力思维的启示，探讨了“跳出框架思考”这一流行观念的科学性验证过程。 34．细节理解题。根据文章第一段“How do people think differently? This has always been unusual. To search an answer, a scientist named J.P. Guilford started a famous study of creativity in the 1970s, known as the nine-dot puzzle.”可知，“九点谜题”这项研究主要关注的是人们是如何用不同的方法思考的。故选B。 35．细节理解题。根据文章第三段“To make sure that Guilford’s study is correct, both teams divided participants into two groups.”可知，两个团队的实验目的是验证Guilford研究的正确性。故选D。 36．推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Guess what? Only a little more than 20 percent solved the puzzle, which is no big difference from the result of Guilford’s experiment.”可知，即便明确提示“跳出框架”，只有20%多一点的人解决了这个难题，这与Guilford的实验结果没有太大区别。由此推知，即使有明确的指示也几乎没有人做的更好。故选C。 37．最佳标题题。文章结尾强调“researchers had proved that the connection between thinking outside the box and creativity was a misunderstanding.”，说明“跳出框架思考”与创造力的关联被误解，故最佳标题为“跳出框框思考：一个误导人的想法”。故选C。 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．He kept going because he knew his dream was ________ (值得) all his effort. 【答案】worth 【详解】句意：他一直坚持，因为他知道他的梦想值得他付出所有的努力。根据句意及汉语提示，worth作为形容词，有“值得的”意思，“be worth+名词/动名词”表示“值得……”，所以填worth。 39．In the early hard days, he had to compete ________ (对抗) many famous companies. 【答案】against 【详解】句意：在早期艰难的日子里，他不得不与许多知名公司对抗。“compete against/with”是固定搭配，意为“与……竞争/对抗”，结合语境“对抗”，against更符合语境。 40．________ (无论何时) he met difficulties, he chose to face them bravely. 【答案】Whenever 【详解】句意：无论何时遇到困难，他都选择勇敢面对。“无论何时”对应的单词是whenever，引导让步状语从句。注意句首单词首字母需要大写，故填Whenever。 41．We can’t get the ________ (令人满意的) result without your help. 【答案】satisfying 【详解】句意：没有你的帮助，我们无法得到令人满意的结果。“令人满意的”可译为satisfying，形容词作定语修饰名词result。 42．When Zhang was young, he didn’t give long ________ (演讲), but he kept learning by doing. 【答案】speeches/talks 【详解】句意：在张年轻时，他不做长演讲，但他一直在实践中学习。括号内提示词 “演讲”，对应的英文单词是speech/talk，因为前面没有限定词，所以要用复数形式。 （B）根据句意，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 43．In 1997, Wang Zengqi passed away peacefully in his ________. (seventy) 【答案】seventies 【详解】句意：1997年，汪曾祺在他七十多岁时平静地离世。“in one’s + 整十数的复数形式” 表示“在某人几十多岁时”，seventy的复数形式是seventies。 44．Wang Zengqi loved his hometown Gaoyou _________ (deep) and always missed it. 【答案】deeply 【详解】句意：汪曾祺深爱他的家乡高邮，一直思念着那里。此处需要修饰动词loved，需要变为副词形式，形容词deep直接加-ly变为副词deeply，表示“深深地、深切地”。 45．Wang Zengqi once said, “Life _________ is more interesting than any novel.” (it) 【答案】itself 【详解】句意：汪曾祺曾说：“生活本身比任何小说都更有趣。”此处强调生活本身，需用反身代词，it的反身代词为itself。 46．Wang Zengqi also liked to share the _________ of eating in his works. (happy) 【答案】happiness 【详解】句意：汪曾祺也喜欢在他的作品中分享吃的乐趣 。定冠词the和介词of之间填入名词，happy的名词形式是happiness。 47．Last month, Zhang Xue and his team finally managed to ________ (success) in making history. 【答案】succeed 【详解】句意：上个月，张雪和他的团队终于成功创造了历史。句中“managed to”后接动词原形，括号内的“success”是名词，需要变为动词形式“succeed”，构成固定搭配“succeed in doing sth”，译为“成功做某事”。 五、动词填空 用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空，并将答案写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） 48．Last weekend, a group of students ________ (spend) an afternoon there for a study visit 【答案】spent 【详解】句意：上周末，一群学生在那里度过了一个下午进行学习参观。句中时间状语“Last weekend”（上周末），这是一个明确的过去时间标志词，表明句子描述的动作发生在过去，所以句子要用一般过去时。动词spend的过去式是spent，因此横线处应填spent。 49．The firemen worked hard to stop the fire ________ (spread) to other buildings. 【答案】spreading 【详解】句意：消防员们努力阻止火势蔓延到其他建筑物。此处考查stop sb./sth. (from) doing sth.结构，表示“阻止某人/某物做某事”，其中from可省略，所以这里要用spread的动名词形式spreading。 50．It is said that they ________ (share) their reports about the museum in class next month. 【答案】will share/are going to share 【详解】句意：据说他们下个月要在课堂上分享关于博物馆的报告。句中的时间状语“next month”（下个月），这是一个明确表示将来时间的标志词，说明句子描述的动作“share their reports about the museum in class”（在课堂上分享他们关于博物馆的报告）会在未来的下个月发生。一般将来时常见的表达结构有“will + 动词原形” 以及“be going to + 动词原形” ，在本句中，使用“will + 动词原形”的结构，即will share，也可以用are going to share ，二者都符合一般将来时的要求。 51．Look at the photo here. The students ________ (look) at old silver coins carefully. 【答案】are looking 【详解】句意：看这张照片。学生们正在仔细地看着古银币。句中“Look at the photo here”提示我们描述的是照片中正在发生的场景，需要用现在进行时“be+现在分词”。主语“The students”是复数，be动词用are，look的现在分词是looking。 52．Many of these valuable objects ________ (find) during the recent underwater work. 【答案】were found 【详解】句意：这些珍贵的物品中有许多是在最近的水下工作中被发现的。主语“objects”与动词“find”之间是动宾关系，且时间状语“during the recent underwater work”表明动作发生在过去，因此应用一般过去时的被动语态。主语是复数，be动词用were，find的过去分词是found。故填were found。 53．Filled with excitement, I couldn’t wait ________ (record) the natural beauty with my camera. 【答案】to record 【详解】句意：我怀着激动的心情，迫不及待地用相机记录下这美丽的自然风光。句中couldn’t wait是can’t wait的过去式，固定结构can’t wait to do sth. 意为“迫不及待做某事”，此处动词record用不定式形式to record。 54．As we entered the park, flowers ________ (dance) gently in the wind, as if welcoming our arrival. 【答案】were dancing 【详解】句意：当我们进入公园时，花儿在风中轻轻舞动，仿佛在欢迎我们的到来。dance“跳舞”，动词。根据“As we entered the park...as if welcoming our arrival.”可知，此处描述的是过去某个时刻正在发生的动作，即当我们进入公园时花儿正在舞动，所以用过去进行时，结构为“was/were +现在分词”，主语“flowers”是复数，be动词用were，dance的现在分词是dancing。 55．Many people come here ________ (experience) a different sight of the night cherry blossoms. 【答案】to experience 【详解】句意：许多人来到这里是为了体验夜樱的独特美景。句子主谓结构“Many people come here”已经完整，此处需填入动词experience的非谓语形式，用来表示“来到这里”的目的。动词不定式to experience在此处作目的状语，明确人们来这里的初衷是“体验夜樱景色”。 56．Every March, the Wuxi International Cherry Blossom Week ________ (welcome) thousands of visitors around the world. 【答案】welcomes 【详解】句意：每年三月，无锡国际樱花周都会迎来来自世界各地的成千上万名游客。分析句子可知，句子中时间状语Every March（每年三月）表示经常性、习惯性的动作，因此句子应使用一般现在时；主语the Wuxi International Cherry Blossom Week是单数名词短语，属于第三人称单数，因此谓语动词welcome需要变为第三人称单数形式welcomes。 57．Many museums ________ (be) open for free recently so that people can learn about culture better. 【答案】have been 【详解】句意：许多博物馆最近免费开放，以便人们能更好地了解文化。时间状语“recently”表示“最近一段时间”，常与现在完成时连用；主语“Many museums”为复数，故be动词的现在完成时形式为“have been”。 六、阅读表达 （本大题共5小题，每小题2分，共10分） The earliest forms of Chinese raincoats were made of straw and they were called “straw rain capes”. Now, few people wear straw rain capes anymore. But in the past, they were popular, especially among farmers and fishermen. The straw rain capes were described in lots of poems and articles in different periods. They were everywhere in the countryside of China in the 1970s. But as society develops, it is slowly losing its place. Later, other materials were found to be more suitable for making rain capes. Fan Licai, a woman in Zhuliangzhuang Village, Lianyungang City of Jiangsu Province, has a special love for straw rain capes. It is said that she is the only one still making straw rain capes for a living in Ganyu District. The woman learned the skill when she was 12. When she was young, she could make two capes in three days, and make a living for her family. Now her children ask her not to make capes anymore. They think she should enjoy her time. However, she still continues to make straw rain capes to keep this traditional skill alive. Making a straw rain cape needs 4 kilograms of straw, and for Fan now needs 4-5 days to finish a single cape. “Still, I hope more people will learn about this traditional skill. I wish someone would take it up and keep it going for years to come. It is not just a straw rain cape, but a special part of our culture and history.” Fan said. 58．Who wore straw rain capes most in the past? 59．Where were straw rain capes seen in the 1970s? 60．When did Fan Licai begin to learn the skill? 61．How much time does Fan Licai need to make one cape now? 62．What can we do to keep traditional skills like making straw rain capes alive? 【答案】58．Farmers and fishermen. 59．In China’s countryside. 60．At the age of 12. 61．4 to 5 days. 62．Learn and pass them on. 【导语】本文介绍了中国传统蓑衣的发展变迁，讲述了非遗传承人范丽彩坚守蓑衣制作技艺，守护传统文化、希望传统技艺得以传承延续的故事。 58．根据文章第1段原文“especially among farmers and fishermen”可推知，过去蓑衣最受农民和渔民的喜爱、穿戴最多。 59．根据文章第2段原文“They were everywhere in the countryside of China in the 1970s.”可推知，20世纪70年代蓑衣遍布中国乡村各地。 60．根据文章第3段原文“The woman learned the skill when she was 12.”可推知，范丽彩在12岁的时候开始学习制作蓑衣的技艺。 61．根据文章第4段原文“for Fan now needs 4-5 days to finish a single cape.”可推知，如今范丽彩制作一件蓑衣需要4到5天的时间。 62．根据文章第4段原文“I wish someone would take it up and keep it going for years to come.”可推知，我们可以学习这项传统技艺并将它传承下去，以此守护这类传统手艺。 七、书面表达 （本大题共20分） 63．三年初中时光，我们曾在志愿服务中携手奉献，传递温暖；在艺术舞台上默契排练，绽放光彩；在体育赛场上并肩冲刺，团结拼搏；在研学途中结伴同行，开阔眼界……为珍藏青春记忆，无锡日报英文版面向全体初三毕业生举办主题为“The Most Unforgettable Group Activity”英文征文活动。假设你是阳光中学李华，准备参加此次征文活动。请介绍一次你印象最深的集体活动，描述具体经历，并谈谈你的感受与收获。 注意事项： 1.征文内容须自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.词数不少于90个，开头与结尾已给出，不计入总词数； 3.征文中不得使用真实的个人姓名或学校名称。 I’m Li Hua from Wuxi Sunshine Middle School.

Let’s welcome Qiqi, Jiji, Chichi, and Chengcheng! These four horses are cute and full of energy. Their designs mix ancient history with modern art. Let’s meet them one by one. Qiqi’s design is based on the famous Bronze Colt-shaped Zun of Lord Li (蠡驹尊) from the Western Zhou Dynasty. It has a dark colour and wears a high hair bun. Qiqi looks calm, polite, and full of big dreams. Jiji takes its design from the Han Dynasty. Its body looks like the famous Bronze Galloping Horse (铜奔马). Look at its wings! They spread wide for the horse to fly high. The design of the wings comes from an ancient bronze umbrella handle. How brave and confident Jiji looks! Chichi shows the style of the Tang Dynasty. It is a Three-maned Horse. Its mane (鬃毛) is shaped into three bunches. This style was for the highest-ranking horses long ago. Chichi looks brave and strong. Chengcheng is a Przewalski’s horse (普氏野马)—the only wild horse species alive today! China now has the world’s largest number of them. This is a great achievement in wildlife protection. Chengcheng looks strong and fit, showing the good relationship between humans and the earth. These four horses bring joy and hope. They are ready to run into a happy New Year with you! 25．How many mascots are there for the 2026 Year of the Horse Spring Festival Gala? A．3 B．4 C．5 D．6 26．Which mascot gets its design from the Han Dynasty? A．Qiqi B．Jiji C．Chichi D．Chengcheng 27．Where are we most likely to read the passage? A．newspapers B．novels C．tour guides D．notices B You’re not alone! Many kids feel a mix of willingness and fear when they want to speak up. You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger. Next, try to raise your hand once or twice a week at school. You might ask a friend to give you a smile. It’s easier to be brave when someone’s cheering you on. Finally, when you have a question, tell yourself that your classmates may be curious about the same thing. That may help you feel more confident. That sounds frustrating. Your brothers and sisters may not realize how strongly you feel about this. Here are a few ideas. Make a special place. Find a place to keep your favorite toys. Ask a parent to help you think of a place that is just for your things. Talk it out. Have a calm dialogue with your brothers and sisters. You could say, “This toy is really important to me. Can we make a deal that you will ask before touching it?” Offer other toys. Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe. 28．Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from? A．Science news. B．Healthy lifestyles. C．Personality tests. D．Teenage problems. 29．What does the underlined word “included” mean? A．Accepted. B．Guilty. C．Praised. D．Nervous. 30．What can we learn from the passage? A．We can get our friends’ support if we raise our hands in class. B．We can share our favourite toys with others to keep them safe. C．Practicing speaking up at home can make us more confident in class. D．Communicating with our parents can help us protect our favourite toys. C The Dream Builder Finn’s younger brother, Leo, had a serious immune deficiency (免疫缺陷) disease, making the outside world a dangerous place. Finn saw the longing in Leo’s eyes when he talked about his own hikes or bike rides. Finn was a member of his school’s tech club. He’d built robots. One night, watching Leo get lost in a map, Finn had an idea: If Leo couldn’t go to the world, he would bring the world to Leo. He called this idea “The Dreamwalker.” It was about creating a personalized, sensory experience. Finn improved an old virtual reality (VR) headset, but the key was a pair of special gloves he engineered himself. They could simulate (模拟) the feeling of touching different things. Then came the hard part: building the “worlds”. For a week, Finn took a 360-degree camera on his hike. He didn’t just film; he recorded the sound of the river, the wind, and the birds. He reached out and touched hard stones, soft grass, and cold water, noting the exact sensation. Back in the lab, he synchronized (同步) the videos to the headset. He programmed the gloves: When Leo “touched” the river, some water produced by an improved computer cooling fan would hit his face, and the special gloves would help him feel the movement of the water. Then came the first test. Leo put on the headset and gloves, and started the program. He was silent for a minute. Then, “I can...feel the river!” he said. His smile widened behind the headset. For twenty minutes, Leo explored, reaching out, laughing as water hit his face by the “river”. Finn filmed Leo’s reaction, a joy he hadn’t seen in years. He realized that the highest purpose of technology and skill isn’t to win competitions or create new inventions. It’s to be a bridge. It’s to use your knowledge as a tool for understanding and to give someone you love the irreplaceable gift of an experience. He learned that the greatest engineering is the kind that connects one human heart to another. 31．Why was the outside world a dangerous place for Leo? A．Because he was too young. B．Because he had poor eyesight. C．Because he got lost easily outside. D．Because he had a serious disease. 32．What did Finn do for Leo? A．He created a set of sensory tools. B．He personalized a special robot. C．He recorded all of his bike rides. D．He bought a VR headset with nature programs. 33．What did Finn learn from this experience? A．Human connections are based on the development of technology. B．Technology finds its true value in enriching the life of loved ones. C．Diseases cannot hold back the dreams of those who never give up. D．Engineering can help people win awards and prizes in competitions. D How do people think differently? This has always been unusual. To search an answer, a scientist named J.P. Guilford started a famous study of creativity in the 1970s, known as the nine-dot puzzle. He asked the participants to connect all nine dots using only four straight lines, without lifting their pencils from the page. All the participants looked for solutions within the square they imagined. Only 20 percent managed to break out of the square and continue their lines in the white space around the dots, while the rest of them were blinded by the boundaries (边界) of the square. The results of Guilford’s study led him to a conclusion: creativity needs you to go outside the box. The idea was widely spread soon. Overnight, it seemed that creativity experts everywhere were teaching managers how to think outside the box. The idea was so popular that no one thought of checking the facts. No one, that is, before two different research teams—Clarke Burmham with Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba with Robert Weisberg—did another experiment. To make sure that Guilford’s study is correct, both teams divided participants into two groups. The first group was given the same instructions as the participants in Guilford’s experiment. The second group was told to draw the lines outside the imagined box. Guess what? Only a little more than 20 percent solved the puzzle, which is no big difference from the result of Guilford’s experiment. Let’s look a little more closely at the surprising result. Solving this problem requires people to think outside the box. However, direct and clear instructions to “think outside the box” do not help participants improve their performance. The widely spread idea that out-of-the-box thinking makes people more creative can, in some way, be dangerous. After all, with one simple but brilliant experiment, researchers had proved that the connection between thinking outside the box and creativity was a misunderstanding. 34．The nine-dot puzzle study is mainly focused on ________. A．how people do things in real life B．how people think in different ways C．what people see in the experiment D．what knowledge people have learned 35．Why did the two research teams do the following experiment? A．To find out the main idea of Guiford’s study. B．To show different opinions against Guiford’s study. C．To collect supporting details for Guiford’s study.

Now, few people wear straw rain capes anymore. But in the past, they were popular, especially among farmers and fishermen. The straw rain capes were described in lots of poems and articles in different periods. They were everywhere in the countryside of China in the 1970s. But as society develops, it is slowly losing its place. Later, other materials were found to be more suitable for making rain capes. Fan Licai, a woman in Zhuliangzhuang Village, Lianyungang City of Jiangsu Province, has a special love for straw rain capes. It is said that she is the only one still making straw rain capes for a living in Ganyu District. The woman learned the skill when she was 12. When she was young, she could make two capes in three days, and make a living for her family. Now her children ask her not to make capes anymore. They think she should enjoy her time. However, she still continues to make straw rain capes to keep this traditional skill alive. Making a straw rain cape needs 4 kilograms of straw, and for Fan now needs 4-5 days to finish a single cape. “Still, I hope more people will learn about this traditional skill. I wish someone would take it up and keep it going for years to come. It is not just a straw rain cape, but a special part of our culture and history.” Fan said. 58．Who wore straw rain capes most in the past? 59．Where were straw rain capes seen in the 1970s? 60．When did Fan Licai begin to learn the skill? 61．How much time does Fan Licai need to make one cape now? 62．What can we do to keep traditional skills like making straw rain capes alive? 七、书面表达 （本大题共20分） 63．三年初中时光，我们曾在志愿服务中携手奉献，传递温暖；在艺术舞台上默契排练，绽放光彩；在体育赛场上并肩冲刺，团结拼搏；在研学途中结伴同行，开阔眼界……为珍藏青春记忆，无锡日报英文版面向全体初三毕业生举办主题为“The Most Unforgettable Group Activity”英文征文活动。假设你是阳光中学李华，准备参加此次征文活动。请介绍一次你印象最深的集体活动，描述具体经历，并谈谈你的感受与收获。 注意事项： 1.征文内容须自拟，要求语句通顺、意思连贯、符合题意； 2.词数不少于90个，开头与结尾已给出，不计入总词数； 3.征文中不得使用真实的个人姓名或学校名称。 I’m Li Hua from Wuxi Sunshine Middle School.

Let’s welcome Qiqi, Jiji, Chichi, and Chengcheng! These four horses are cute and full of energy. Their designs mix ancient history with modern art. Let’s meet them one by one. Qiqi’s design is based on the famous Bronze Colt-shaped Zun of Lord Li (蠡驹尊) from the Western Zhou Dynasty. It has a dark colour and wears a high hair bun. Qiqi looks calm, polite, and full of big dreams. Jiji takes its design from the Han Dynasty. Its body looks like the famous Bronze Galloping Horse (铜奔马). Look at its wings! They spread wide for the horse to fly high. The design of the wings comes from an ancient bronze umbrella handle. How brave and confident Jiji looks! Chichi shows the style of the Tang Dynasty. It is a Three-maned Horse. Its mane (鬃毛) is shaped into three bunches. This style was for the highest-ranking horses long ago. Chichi looks brave and strong. Chengcheng is a Przewalski’s horse (普氏野马)—the only wild horse species alive today! China now has the world’s largest number of them. This is a great achievement in wildlife protection. Chengcheng looks strong and fit, showing the good relationship between humans and the earth. These four horses bring joy and hope. They are ready to run into a happy New Year with you! 25．How many mascots are there for the 2026 Year of the Horse Spring Festival Gala? A．3 B．4 C．5 D．6 26．Which mascot gets its design from the Han Dynasty? A．Qiqi B．Jiji C．Chichi D．Chengcheng 27．Where are we most likely to read the passage? A．newspapers B．novels C．tour guides D．notices B You’re not alone! Many kids feel a mix of willingness and fear when they want to speak up. You can practice while doing homework. Pretend (假装) a teacher asked a question. Then raise your hand and answer. Doing this at home may help your voice feel stronger. Next, try to raise your hand once or twice a week at school. You might ask a friend to give you a smile. It’s easier to be brave when someone’s cheering you on. Finally, when you have a question, tell yourself that your classmates may be curious about the same thing. That may help you feel more confident. That sounds frustrating. Your brothers and sisters may not realize how strongly you feel about this. Here are a few ideas. Make a special place. Find a place to keep your favorite toys. Ask a parent to help you think of a place that is just for your things. Talk it out. Have a calm dialogue with your brothers and sisters. You could say, “This toy is really important to me. Can we make a deal that you will ask before touching it?” Offer other toys. Choose one or two toys that you are willing to share. That way, your brothers and sisters will still feel included and your special things will stay safe. 28．Which part of a magazine is the passage probably taken from? A．Science news. B．Healthy lifestyles. C．Personality tests. D．Teenage problems. 29．What does the underlined word “included” mean? A．Accepted. B．Guilty. C．Praised. D．Nervous. 30．What can we learn from the passage? A．We can get our friends’ support if we raise our hands in class. B．We can share our favourite toys with others to keep them safe. C．Practicing speaking up at home can make us more confident in class. D．Communicating with our parents can help us protect our favourite toys. C The Dream Builder Finn’s younger brother, Leo, had a serious immune deficiency (免疫缺陷) disease, making the outside world a dangerous place. Finn saw the longing in Leo’s eyes when he talked about his own hikes or bike rides. Finn was a member of his school’s tech club. He’d built robots. One night, watching Leo get lost in a map, Finn had an idea: If Leo couldn’t go to the world, he would bring the world to Leo. He called this idea “The Dreamwalker.” It was about creating a personalized, sensory experience. Finn improved an old virtual reality (VR) headset, but the key was a pair of special gloves he engineered himself. They could simulate (模拟) the feeling of touching different things. Then came the hard part: building the “worlds”. For a week, Finn took a 360-degree camera on his hike. He didn’t just film; he recorded the sound of the river, the wind, and the birds. He reached out and touched hard stones, soft grass, and cold water, noting the exact sensation. Back in the lab, he synchronized (同步) the videos to the headset. He programmed the gloves: When Leo “touched” the river, some water produced by an improved computer cooling fan would hit his face, and the special gloves would help him feel the movement of the water. Then came the first test. Leo put on the headset and gloves, and started the program. He was silent for a minute. Then, “I can...feel the river!” he said. His smile widened behind the headset. For twenty minutes, Leo explored, reaching out, laughing as water hit his face by the “river”. Finn filmed Leo’s reaction, a joy he hadn’t seen in years. He realized that the highest purpose of technology and skill isn’t to win competitions or create new inventions. It’s to be a bridge. It’s to use your knowledge as a tool for understanding and to give someone you love the irreplaceable gift of an experience. He learned that the greatest engineering is the kind that connects one human heart to another. 31．Why was the outside world a dangerous place for Leo? A．Because he was too young. B．Because he had poor eyesight. C．Because he got lost easily outside. D．Because he had a serious disease. 32．What did Finn do for Leo? A．He created a set of sensory tools. B．He personalized a special robot. C．He recorded all of his bike rides. D．He bought a VR headset with nature programs. 33．What did Finn learn from this experience? A．Human connections are based on the development of technology. B．Technology finds its true value in enriching the life of loved ones. C．Diseases cannot hold back the dreams of those who never give up. D．Engineering can help people win awards and prizes in competitions. D How do people think differently? This has always been unusual. To search an answer, a scientist named J.P. Guilford started a famous study of creativity in the 1970s, known as the nine-dot puzzle. He asked the participants to connect all nine dots using only four straight lines, without lifting their pencils from the page. All the participants looked for solutions within the square they imagined. Only 20 percent managed to break out of the square and continue their lines in the white space around the dots, while the rest of them were blinded by the boundaries (边界) of the square. The results of Guilford’s study led him to a conclusion: creativity needs you to go outside the box. The idea was widely spread soon. Overnight, it seemed that creativity experts everywhere were teaching managers how to think outside the box. The idea was so popular that no one thought of checking the facts. No one, that is, before two different research teams—Clarke Burmham with Kenneth Davis, and Joseph Alba with Robert Weisberg—did another experiment. To make sure that Guilford’s study is correct, both teams divided participants into two groups. The first group was given the same instructions as the participants in Guilford’s experiment. The second group was told to draw the lines outside the imagined box. Guess what? Only a little more than 20 percent solved the puzzle, which is no big difference from the result of Guilford’s experiment. Let’s look a little more closely at the surprising result. Solving this problem requires people to think outside the box. However, direct and clear instructions to “think outside the box” do not help participants improve their performance. The widely spread idea that out-of-the-box thinking makes people more creative can, in some way, be dangerous. After all, with one simple but brilliant experiment, researchers had proved that the connection between thinking outside the box and creativity was a misunderstanding. 34．The nine-dot puzzle study is mainly focused on ________. A．how people do things in real life B．how people think in different ways C．what people see in the experiment D．what knowledge people have learned 35．Why did the two research teams do the following experiment? A．To find out the main idea of Guiford’s study. B．To show different opinions against Guiford’s study. C．To collect supporting details for Guiford’s study. D．To double-check the correctness of Guiford’s study. 36．From the passage, we can learn that ________. A．boundaries sometimes make people think less creatively B．clear instructions influence how people solve problems C．few people performed better with the clear instructions D．the methods of nine-dot puzzle study need to be improved 37．Which is the best title for the passage? A．Puzzle Solving: A Key To Creativity B．Nine-Dot Puzzle: A Magic Test C．Thinking Outside the Box: A Misleading Idea D．Creative Thinking: An Unusual Topic 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） （A）根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38．He kept going because he knew his dream was ________ (值得) all his effort. 39．In the early hard days, he had to compete ________ (对抗) many famous companies. 40．________ (无论何时) he met difficulties, he chose to face them bravely. 41．We can’t get the ________ (令人满意的) result without your help. 42．When Zhang was young, he didn’t give long ________ (演讲), but he kept learning by doing. （B）根据句意，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出括号内所给单词的适当形式。 43．In 1997, Wang Zengqi passed away peacefully in his ________.
