Some argued that AI tools like translators and speech apps provide unmatched efficiency, offering instant corrections and personalized practice. Others maintained that human cognition fosters deeper understanding, emphasizing creativity and cultural sensitivity that machines cannot replicate. Looking ahead, most agreed that the ideal approach lies in synergy. While AI excels at repetitive tasks and instant feedback, human teachers cultivate critical thinking and authentic communication skills. The future of English learning may well belong to a balanced model where technological assistance complements rather than replaces human guidance. 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。题目要求学生以李华的身份，给校英文报写一篇报道，报道本班举办的讨论活动，应首先介绍讨论中两方不同的观点，再介绍对英语学习模式的展望。 【详解】1. 词汇积累 主张：argue→contend, maintain 无与伦比的：unmatched→unparalleled 强调：emphasize→highlight, stress 取代：replace→take the place of 2. 句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：While AI excels at repetitive tasks and instant feedback, human teachers cultivate critical thinking and authentic communication skills. 拓展句：In spite of the fact that AI excels at repetitive tasks and instant feedback, human teachers cultivate critical thinking and authentic communication skills. 【点睛】[高分句型1] Others maintained that human cognition fosters deeper understanding, emphasizing creativity and cultural sensitivity that machines cannot replicate.

The words flowed from my fingertips as if they had been waiting for this moment. I found myself absorbed in the process, letting my thoughts and emotions guide my review. And soon enough, I had a complete draft before me. As I read through what I had written, a sense of accomplishment washed over me. It wasn’t perfect, but I captured the essence of the novel. With a deep breath, I hit the “send”button. Then, all I could do was wait. Meanwhile, I felt worried that it wouldn’t be accepted by the editor. It wasn’t long before the editor replied. “Hi, Carol. I did a quick read through of your review. It looks great the editor excitedly. Upon hearing these words, all my doubts were pushed aside and replaced by newfound confidence. From that day forward, I embraced more opportunities to write reviews. It was a journey of growth and self-discovery, one that taught me the power of stepping out of my comfort zone and trusting in my own abilities. And so, my humble beginnings as an occasional poet and library assistant paved the way for a new chapter in writing journey. I’m grateful for the initial chance the editor gave me. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者作为图书馆工作人员和业余诗人，向地区杂志投稿诗歌后，意外收到编辑的书评撰写邀请。作者起初因缺乏经验和自我怀疑而不安，但还是接受了挑战，在认真阅读小说后完成书评并发送。编辑回复认可，这让作者重拾信心，开启了写作新篇章，也让作者明白走出舒适区和相信自己能力的重要性。 详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“‘就从写下任何东西开始吧，’我告诉自己。”可知，第一段可描写作者克服心理障碍，开始撰写书评，并最终完成初稿的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容“没过多久，编辑就回复了。”可知，第二段可描写编辑对作者书评的积极反馈，以及作者因此获得的信心和成长。 2. 续写线索：开始写作——克服焦虑——完成初稿——发送书评——等待回复——收到积极反馈——获得信心和成长 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①点击“发送”按钮：hit the “send” button/click the “send” button/press the “send” button ②抓住机会：embrace opportunities/seize opportunities/take up opportunities ③为……铺平道路：pave the way for/smooth the way for/clear the path for 情绪类 ①感到担心：feel worried/be concerned ②感激的：grateful/thankful/appreciative 【点睛】【高分句型1】The words flowed from my fingertips as if they had been waiting for this moment.（运用了as if引导的方式状语从句） 【高分句型2】As I read through what I had written, a sense of accomplishment washed over me.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句和what引导的宾语从句） 【A篇答案】【导语】本文是一篇说明文，说明和介绍申请路易斯安那州立大学（LSU）的入学要求和申请流程。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。由Academic Record部分中的“A high school GPA of at least 3.0 based on 19 core units. If you have a 3.77GPA or above, you have a very good chance of being admitted.(基于19个核心单元，高中平均成绩至少为3.0。如果你的平均成绩为3.77分或以上，你很有可能被录取。)”可知，影响路易斯安那州立大学录取的关键因素是选项A.High school GPA(高中平均成绩)。故选A项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。由“Application Submission”的最后一项“The application fee is $50.(申请费为50美元。)”可知，在入学申请过程中必须提供的是选项A(申请费)。故选A项。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。由文章标题“Application Requirements for LSU(路易斯安那州立大学（LSU）)申请要求”以及第一段“To apply for admission to Louisiana State University (LSU), you’ll need to consider the following requirements:(申请路易斯安那州立大学（LSU）的录取，您需要考虑以下要求)”可知，文章描述的是申请易斯安那州立大学的要求，属于申请指南，选项B符合。故选B项。 【B篇答案】 主题语境:人与自然——自然生态 本文是新闻报道。文章讲述了被圈养40余年的红海龟Jorge经科学家三年系统训练恢复野外生存本能后,成功重返巴西海洋的漫长归家之旅。 24. C。理解具体信息。根据第二段中的Mariela Dassis, a researcher at the National University of Mar del Plata, was in charge of his satellite monitoring可知,Mariela Dassis负责监测Jorge的卫星信号,故选C项。 25. A。推断。根据第一段中的On the morning of April 11, a 220-pound loggerhead sea turtle named Jorge dove into the Atlantic Ocean 和第三段中的 The first night, Dassis barely slept, waiting for Jorge to send out a signal可知,在Jorge被放归海洋的那个晚上,Mariela Dassis几乎一夜没睡, 她一直等着Jorge发出信号。由此可推知, Mariela Dassis精神高度紧张, 故选A项(紧张的)。 26. C。理解具体信息。根据第五段中的researchers began a three-year re-education plan to restore Jorge’s lost survival instincts, starting with re-adapting him to saltwater可知,为了让Jorge重返海洋,研究人员首先让他重新适应盐水,故选C项。A项(在池子里制造水流)和B项(将他的饮食改为活食)都是在适应盐水之后才采取的措施。D项(在池子里增加其他动物)文中未提及。 27. B。理解主旨要义。文章以红海龟Jorge被圈养40余年后重返巴西海洋为主线,通过描述其从水族箱圈养到科学训练恢复野外生存能力、最终成功放归并由卫星追踪的完整过程, 展现了“归家”这一事件的里程碑意义,故B项作为本文的标题最合适。 【C篇答案】本文是一篇说明文。文章以纽约一家餐厅的短期实验项目“wastED”为例，介绍了食物浪费问题。该餐厅通过改造本该被丢弃的食材制作创意菜品，以此提高人们对可持续饮食的关注。 28. 推理判断题：① 定题干关键词“early life”与原文中的“growing up in South Africa”为同义替换，由此可定位至首段尾句。② 根据定位句“Maybe that feeling comes from growing up in South Africa, where the phrase ‘there are children starving in Africa’ was more of an uncomfortable reminder of fact than a prayer at dinner time”（或许这种感觉源于在南非的成长经历——在那里，“非洲还有孩子在挨饿”这句话与其说是晚餐时的祈祷词，不如说是一个令人不安的事实提醒）可知，作者在南非见证了那里有孩子挨饿的事实。由此推知，作者早年目睹了食物短缺的情况。 ③ 换 A 项“He witnessed food shortage”是对原文“that feeling…in South Africa”“‘there are children starving…’ was…of fact”的话外音替换。 28. 细节理解题：① 定 题干关键词“Blue Hill”与“the experiment”代指文中的“wastED”项目，由此定位至第三段。② 比 根据定位段中的“Each dish was tailor-made to raise awareness regarding food waste”可知，Blue Hill 餐厅进行这个实验，将菜单改为只提供原本会被扔掉的食物，是为了提高公众对食物浪费的认识。③ 换 B 项中的“make the public aware of food waste”与原文中的“raise awareness regarding food waste”是同义替换。 30. 段落大意题：主旨句推断法：转折词后是主旨句。转折词“Instead”后是作者主要表达的观点。本段中“Things like kale ribs, fish collars, rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated”是对主旨句“Instead, all the ingredients (配料)…serving”的具体举例说明，由此可知，本段主要介绍了wastED菜单上的菜品并非由垃圾制成，而是使用了大多数餐厅不会考虑的食材，如羽衣甘蓝梗、鱼颈肉、被拒收的红薯和黄瓜头等。故本段主要讲的是这些菜肴是由什么做成的。故选C。 31推理判断题：① 定 根据“题文同序”原则进行定位。第三题答案区间在第五段，故此题直接从第六段（即尾段）开始找对应信息。② 比 根据定位段中“Though wastED received enthusiastic reviews, it was designed from the start as a short-lived experiment; Blue Hill has since returned to its regular menu”可知，wastED项目从一开始就被设计为短期实验，现在Blue Hill餐厅已恢复常规菜单。由此推知，实验项目“wastED”已经按计划结束了。③ 换 A 项“It has ended as planned”是对原文“it was…regular menu”的话外音替换。 【D篇答案】主题语境:人与自我——生活 本文是说明文。抹茶中的单宁酸会阻碍身体对植物性铁的吸收,专家给出了健康饮用抹茶的建议。 32. B。理解具体信息。根据第一段可知,Kasjak出现身体乏力、头发稀疏的症状,且她认为这些变化是日常饮用抹茶导致的。由此可知,她遭受了抹茶带来的健康问题,故 B 项正确。A项“因抹茶诱人的颜色而喜爱它”和 D 项“饮用抹茶以实现减重目标”在原文中未提及；C项为“在网上分享抹茶的健康益处”,但原文仅说她是健康内容创作者,未提及其分享抹茶益处,故 C 项错误。 33. D。理解具体信息。根据第四段中 Martel 的话可知,单宁酸会与非血红素铁结合,暂时阻碍铁吸收,形成难以在体内吸收且会被排出的物质,即单宁酸会阻碍非血红素铁的吸收,故 D 项正确。A项“它们促进抹茶的分解”与原文相悖；B项为“它们存在于动物性食物中”,但原文说单宁酸来自植物性食物,故 B 项错误；C项“它们造就抹茶独特的风味”在原文中未提及。 34. C。理解具体信息。根据最后一段中 Martel 的建议可知,对于铁含量可能较低的人群, Martel 建议他们将每日抹茶最大摄入量限制在一杯,即每日摄入量最多为一杯,故 C 项正确。A项“多吃植物性食物”在原文未提及；B项“避免将维生素 C 与抹茶同食”与原文中的“维生素 C丰富的食物搭配含铁餐食可促进铁吸收”相悖；D项为“餐前一小时服用铁补充剂”,但原文建议的是喝抹茶与进餐/服用铁补充剂间隔至少一小时,故 D 项错误。 35. A。理解主旨要义。文章开篇以 Kasjak 因喝抹茶出现健康问题引出话题, 随后介绍抹茶流行的原因并重点阐述了抹茶中的单宁酸会阻碍铁吸收（对素食人群影响更大）的原因，最后给出健康引用抹茶的建议。全文核心围绕“抹茶会影响铁元素水平”展开，故A项最适合最为标题。 【七选五答案】【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要阐述了人们在生活和工作中总是会分心，科学家分析出导致分心的原因，并且找到了一些帮助人们保持专注力的方法。 【36题详解】 根据上文“It was easy for your mind to wander if you weren't interested in what you were learning or if you had better things to think about.”（如果你对你正在学习的东西不感兴趣，或者你有更好的事情要想，你很容易走神。）可知，在工作和学习中，人们很容易走神；再根据下文“But understanding how to do it, and knowing what is distracting you, can help. ”（但是了解如何去做，知道是什么让你分心，会有所帮助。）可知，But表转折，说明只要找出分心的原因，明白该怎么做，就会对你集中注意力有帮助，这里的it就是指代选项中的Staying focused。因此E. Staying focused can still be a challenge in adult life.（在成年人的生活中，保持专注仍然是一个挑战。）起着承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选E项。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Scientists have looked at what makes us delay and found a number of ways to help us stay in the zone.”（科学家们研究了导致我们延迟的原因，并找到了一些帮助我们保持状态的方法。）可知，科学家找到了一些方法让我们保持专注；再根据下文“Research by Science Focus magazine found silence is the best for concentration, or a gentle background music is great! It also found turning off notifications on your phone, or switching it off altogether, removes a major distraction and helps us focus on the task at hand. ”（《科学焦点》杂志的研究发现，安静最有利于集中注意力，或者轻柔的背景音乐也很棒！研究还发现，关闭手机上的通知，或者完全关闭它，可以消除一个主要的干扰，帮助我们专注于手头的任务。）可知，这里具体阐述了安静最有利于集中注意力。因此D .One of the most obvious things is removing noise.（最明显的一件事就是去除噪音。）起着承上启下的作用，符合语境。故选D项。 【38题详解】 根据下文“Scientists are increasingly interested in our ability to settle down and have looked at what we can change inside our head to make us concentrate.”（科学家们对我们安定下来的能力越来越感兴趣，并研究了我们可以改变大脑内部的什么来让我们集中注意力。）；以及下文“Attention researcher Nilli Lavie of University College London has found that making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power and leaves the brain nothing left to process distractions.”（伦敦大学学院专注力研究员Nilli Lavie发现让一项任务在视觉上要求更高，需要更多的处理能力，让大脑没有任何东西可以处理分心的事情。）可知，让大脑忙碌起来是保持专注力的一种方法。因此G. Another possible cure for a short attention duration is brain training.（另一种治疗注意力持续时间短的方法是大脑训练。）引出下文，符合语境。故选G项。 【39题详解】 根据下文“These include making a list or timetable of the tasks you have to do, finding a workspace where you're not attracted by other things, or chewing some gum!”（这些方法包括列出你必须完成的任务的清单或时间表，找一个你不会被其他事情吸引的工作空间，或者嚼口香糖！）可知，这些都是举例来帮助你保持专注力的方法。因此F. There are more practical tips on keeping your mind focused.（关于保持注意力集中还有更多实用的建议。）起着总领本段落的作用，引领下文，符合语境。故选F项。 【40题详解】 根据上文“But according to Science Focus magazine, distraction isn't all bad. “If we were always so focused that we never got distracted, we'd miss potential changes, such as threats, in our environment.”（但根据《科学焦点》杂志的说法，分心并不全是坏事。“如果我们总是如此专注，从不分心，我们就会错过环境中的潜在变化，比如威胁。）可知，如果在生活中太专注了，就不会注意到身边潜在的威胁，有可能会危及生命。因此A. Distraction is vital for survival.（分心对生存至关重要。）起着总结作用，符合语境。故选A项。 完形填空【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了亚历克斯的年轻人和米娅合作完成一个火山模型的过程和获得认可后的感受。 【41题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：渴望的参与者中有一位名叫亚历克斯的年轻科学家，他对实验充满热情，前途无量。A. eager渴望的 ；B. hesitant犹豫不决的；C. curious好奇的；D.daring大胆的。根据前文的“In Lincoln Elementary School, the students went wild with excitement on hearing the announcement of the upcoming science fair.”可知，当学生们听到即将到来的科学博览会的消息时，兴奋得发疯，所以大家渴望参与。故选A项。 【42题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：热心的参与者中有一位名叫亚历克斯的年轻科学家，他对实验充满热情，前途无量。A.adventures冒险；B. experiments实验；C. biology生物学；D. theory理论。根据后文的“Alex envisioned creating a volcano model for the fair, complete with a(n) 3 display using baking soda (小苏打) and vinegar (醋).”可知，亚历克斯设想为博览会制作一个火山模型，对实验充满热情。故选B项。 【43题详解】 考查名词词义辨析。句意：亚历克斯设想为博览会制作一个火山模型，用小苏打和醋来完成火山喷发的展示。A. exploring探索；B.shooting射击；C. erupting喷发；D. burning燃烧。根据前文的“Alex envisioned creating a volcano model for the fair”可知，亚历克斯设想为博览会制作一个火山模型，即完成火山喷发的展示。故选C项。 【44题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：正当他忙于自己的项目时，他注意到学校新来的米娅正在努力解决科学展览的复杂问题。A. managing管理；B. demanding要求；C. offering提供；D.struggling努力。根据后文的“to resolve the complexities of the science fair”可知，米娅正在努力解决科学展览的复杂问题。故选D项。 【45题详解】 考查形容词词义辨析。句意：亚历克斯没有只顾自己，而是决定伸出援助之手，邀请米娅加入他的行列。A. easy-going随和的；B. hard-working勤奋的；C.self-absorbed只顾自己的，自我专注的；D. well-intended用意良好的。根据后文的“Alex decided to extend a helping hand and invited Mia to 6 him.”可知，亚历克斯决定伸出援助之手，邀请米娅加入他的行列，所以亚历克斯没有只顾自己。故选C项。 【46题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：亚历克斯没有只顾自己，而是决定伸出援助之手，邀请米娅加入他的行列。A. instruct指导；B. join加入；C. accompany陪伴；D. replace更换。根据后文的“Their working together became a lively 7 of ideas and creativity.”可知，他们的合作成为了思想和创造力的活跃交流，可推知亚历克斯邀请米娅加入他的行列。故选B项。 【47题详解】 考查动词词义辨析。句意：他们的合作成为了思想和创造力的活跃交流。A. challenge挑战；B.change改变；C. race快速转动；D. exchange交流。根据后文的“of ideas and creativity.

W: What exactly were the problems when you first arrived at the college? M: I was very shy, you know. I couldn’t communicate with the students in my class because most of them were British. My English was not very good, but I thought everything was okay until I received the result of my first examination. My teacher was worried and talked to me. W: What advice did your teacher give? M: She suggested I ask more questions in class, so I made it a rule to ask at least one or two questions every lesson. Then my English improved much faster. Text 10 Hi everyone. Today I’d like to share with you my journey into dog rescue. Actually, my journey happened later in life. Growing up in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, I never had a dog or cat due to my mom’s illness. My twenties and thirties were spent moving west for my career and really focusing on that. It wasn’t until my late thirties that my husband, Alex suggested that we get a dog. We both wanted a big dog and agreed that rescuing one would be best. This was my first entry into the world of rescue. We spent the next few weeks working with an animal shelter in Los Angeles to find the perfect dog for us. Finally, Spencer came into our lives. Because of Spencer, I would go on to volunteer at the animal shelter for the next two years and my love for dog rescue developed. After two years volunteering work, I got asked to be the animal rescue event director. I was fond of this role. Every weekend I showed our little dogs and interacted with the public. I got to celebrate rescuing over 250 dogs during my time there, as well as adopting two more boys of my own, Junior and Thor. It is really worth while to be at events, meeting the dog and volunteers and celebrating as each lucky dogs finds their forever home. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年春期高二年级期中考试 英语学科 考试范围：选修四 考试时间：120分钟 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共五道题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 1.

After decades in a shallow aquarium tank（水族箱）in Mendoza,Argentina,Jorge was finally returning to his natural home in Brazil. Mariela Dassis, a researcher at the National University of Mar del Plata, was in charge of his satellite monitoring. She was overseeing the final stage of a careful three-year re-education and release project to prepare Jorge, rescued as a young injured turtle in 1984, for life back in the wild. Jorge holds the record for the longest time spent in captivity （圈养）of any sea turtle in the world. The first night, Dassis barely slept, waiting for Jorge to send out a signal. Now,more than 7O days into his oceanic voyage, she feels calmer because Jorge has already traveled over 1,700 miles and has less than 760 miles left to reach his destination. Jorge was accidentally caught in fishing nets in 1984. For decades, he lived on hard-boiled eggs and beef in caIm water and his natural survival instincts（本能）faded，leaving him unfamiliar with hunting live food or reacting to ocean currents. Following the launch of his release project in 2021, researchers began a three-year re-education plan to restore Jorge's lost survival instincts,starting with re-adapting him to saltwater. Then Jorge boarded the plane and flew to Mar del Plata, where a more comfortable pool awaited him, filled with seawater and kept at a controlled temperature. Throughout the process, Jorge's diet also changed: Hard-boiled eggs and beef were replaced with live food, which the turtle had to hunt. The researchers even created currents in the pool that Jorge got used to. When Jorge was ready, scientists attached a satellite tracker to his shell and released him into the ocean. Jorge's journey proves that even after many years in captivity, wild animals can remember their natural instincts. Scientists hope Jorge will help them learn more about how sea turtles live and migrate（迁徙）. 24. What was Mariela Dassis's duty in the project? A. She treated Jorge's injuries. B. She built an aquarium tank for Jorge. C. She monitored Jorge's satellite signals. D. She trained Jorge to swim long distances. 25. How did Mariela Dassis feel on the night of April 11? A. Stressful. B. Tired. C. Relieved. D. Confident. 26. What did the researchers' three-year re-education plan for Jorge begin with? A. Creating currents in the po0l. B. Switching his diet to live food. C. Getting him used to saltwater again. D. Adding other animals into the pool. 27. What would be the best title for the text? A. A study on sea turtles' migration B. A sea turtle's long journey home C. How to train sea turtles in the wild D. How to prevent sea turtles from being hunted C Does your soul die a little every time you throw away unused food? Mine does. Maybe that feeling comes from growing up in South Africa, where the phrase "there are children starving in Africa" was more of an uncomfortable reminder of fact than a prayer at dinner time. Food waste is a growing concern in the restaurant, supermarket, and supply chain industries. From technological solutions to educational campaigns, food producers and sellers are looking for ways to use more of what we're already growing. But last month,one popular New York City restaurant tried a different way: It changed its menu to exclusively（专门）offer food that wo uld otherwise be thrown away. For two weeks in March,Greenwich Village's Blue Hill restaurant was renamed wastED,and served items like fried skate cartilage, a juice pulp burger, and á dumpster diver's vegetable salad. Each dish was tailor-made to raise awareness regarding food waste. A study by the Food Waste Alliance determined that the average restaurant generates 33 pounds of food waste for every $1,000 in revenue（收入）,and of that waste only 15.7% is donated or recycled. Up to 84.3% is simply thrown out. Restaurants like Silo in the UK have experimnented with zero-waste systems, but wastED took the concept to its logical conclusion. It should be noted that none of the items on wastED's menu was technically made from garbage. Instead, all the ingredients（配料） used were examples of meat cuts and produce that most restaurants would never consider serving. Things like kale ribs,fish collars,rejected sweet potatoes, and cucumber butts were all re-appropriated and,with the help of a number of good chefs, turned into excellent cuisine. Though wastED received enthusiastic reviews, it was designed from the start as a short-lived experiment; Blue Hill has since returned to its regular menu. Nevertheless,it serves as a reminder that there are many ways to address problems of sustainability, and that you can make an amazing meal out of almost anything. 28. What can be inferred about the author's early life? A. He witnessed food shortage. B. He enjoyed the local cuisine. C. He donated food to Africans. D. He helped to cook at home. 29. Why did Blue Hill carry out the experiment? A. To customize dishes for guests. B. To make the public aware of food waste. C. To test a food processing method. D. To improve the UK's zero-waste systems. 30. What is paragraph 5 mainly about? A. Why the ingredients were used. B. Which dishes were best liked. C. What the dishes were made of. D. Where the ingredients were bought. 31. What can we learn about wastED? A. It has ended as planned. B. It is creating new jobs. C. It has regained popularity. D. It is criticized by top chefs. D Britany Kasjak knew something was off with her body when she suddenly felt tired and noticed her hair was thinning. Kasjak, a Toronto-based health content creator,said she believes the changes were caused by how her body was responding to the daily matcha（抹茶）drinks she began having with meals Matcha has seen a global increase in popularity in the last few years, making it a popular choice among Gen Z, health and wellness influencers, and celebrities for its potential health benefits, taste, and distinctive green colour. Although rich in antioxidants（抗氧化剂）,experts say matcha could block the body's iron absorption and possibly cause health problems in those with pre-existing iron-related conditions. Matcha contains tannins-a substance found naturally in numerous plant-based foods, that can block iron absorption in our bodies. There are two types of iron-non-heme（非血红素）iron found in plant-based foods and heme iron from animal sources. Tannins can temporarily（暂时）block iron absorption by combining with non-heme iron,forming substances that aren't easily absorbed in the body and are instead passed out of the body,said Sarah Martel, a registered dietitian at University Health Network. Non-heme iron is already harder to absorb in our bodies compared to animal-source iron,said Jennifer Lee, assistant professor at Toronto Metropolitan University,adding that this could be troubling for vegetarians and vegans whose main source of iron is plant-based foods. Experts recommend matcha-lovers to drink the tea at least one hour before or after meals and / or taking iron supplements（补充剂）.Keeping your matcha intake to no more than one cup per day can be a good tip for those more likely to be low in iron, said Martel. Those who want to enjoy matcha every day should aim to eat enough iron from a mix of plant and animal sources, including leafy greens, seeds, and tofu, she said, adding that pairing vitamin C-rich foods with iron-rich meals can boost iron absorption. 32. What can we learn about Kasjak? A. She loved matcha for its appealing colour. B. She suffered from matcha-related health issues. C. She shared the health benefits of matcha online. D. She consumed matcha to achieve weight-loss goals. 33. What did Martel say about tannins in paragraph 4? A. They enhance the breakdown of matcha. B. They can be found in animal-based foods. C. They contribute to matcha's distinctive flavour. D. They can block the absorption of non-heme iron. 34. What is Martel's suggestion for those more likely to be low in iron? A. Consuming more plant-based foods. B. Avoiding taking vitamin C with matcha. C. Drinking at most one cup of matcha every day. D. Taking iron supplements one hour before meals. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Can matcha affect your iron levels? B. How to safely enjoy your daily cup of matcha? C. What is driving the popularity of iron supplements? D. How matcha is changing our relationship with food? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When you were at school, were you ever told to stop daydreaming and concentrate?It was easy for your mind to wander if you weren't interested in what you were learning or if you had better things to think about. 36 But understanding how to do it,and knowing what is distracting you,can help. Scientists have looked at what makes us delay and found a number of ways to help us stay in the zone. 37 Research by Science Focus magazine found silence is the best for concentration, or a gentle background music is great! It also found turning off notifications on your phone, or switching it off altogether,removes a major distraction and helps us focus on the task at hand. 38 Scientists are increasingly interested in our ability to settle down and have looked at what we can change inside our head to make us concentrate.An article for BBC Future by Caroline Williams says,“Attention researcher Nilli Lavie of University College London has found that making a task more visually demanding takes up more processing power and leaves the brain nothing left to process distractions." So, keeping your mind busy might be the answer. 39 These include making a list or timetable of the tasks you have to do,finding a workspace where you're not attracted by other things, or chewing some gum! It's possible that the movement in your mouth occupies parts of the brain that might otherwise get distracted. But according to Science Focus magazine, distraction isn't all bad. “If we were always so focused that we never got distracted, we'd miss potential changes, such as threas, in our environment. 40 ” A. Distraction is vital for survival. B. Daydreaming can sometimes boost creativity. C. Listening to energetic music aids in concentration. D. One of the most obvious things is removing noise. E. Staying focused can still be a challenge in adult life. F. There are more practical tips on keeping your mind focused. G. Another possible cure for a short attention duration is brain training. 第三部分 语言应用（共两部分；每小题一分，共15分） 第一节 完形填空（共15分） In Jefferson Elementary School, the students went wild with excitement on hearing the announcement of the upcoming science exhibition.

Besides my job in the library, I was a part-time writer. I was so part-time that I would never have called myself a writer, even though many of my poems had been published in literary magazines across Canada. A few months ago, I noticed that this particular regional magazine occasionally published poetry, so I took a chance and sent them a letter along with some of my best poems for their consideration. The instant I picked up the phone,the editor greeted me excitedly,"Hello Carol!I received your letter and I was wondering if you might be interested in reviewing（评论）books for us. You'll have a month to write your review, and we do pay." Reviewing books? I had never written a review before,at least not the kind that would appear in a magazine with many readers. Sure, I had written short and enthusiastic summaries of books in the library to engage our users with newly acquired titles, but they were always positive assessments since I only focused on books I liked. This request was something entirely different. Could I do it? I questioned whether I had the skills and the right to review others'work. After all, I was only an occasional poet and library assistant. My spirits sank when they didn't even mention my poetry; instead,they wanted me to review someone else's writing. "I have a novel here. It's by a well-known author. Would you like me to send it to you?"the editor asked. Suddenly, my heart whispered, “You can do it and say 'yes'now!”"Yes,”I then said. The book arrived soon. I felt anxious. Again, my heart said,“Take it one step at a time. First, read the book." So,I did. I read it carefully and discovered I enjoyed the story. Now what? I sat at my computer, with fingers frozen. “Think! Think! Think! What are you going to say?" I whispered and remained still for several minutes. 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。 “Just start writing down anything," I told myself. It wasn't long before the editor replied. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
