B I have always loved cooking-it relaxes me,especially when I cook for others.A top-chef career requires great passion,dedication,and hard work.Many chefs work fifteen-hour days,six days a week,in hot,noisy kitchens where precision must be kept even under high pressure. Shortly after graduating from the Prudy College of Food and Wine,I set my goal high:I sent my resume to every three-Michelin-star restaurant listed in the Michelin Guide that year.Before long,I got a trial shift at one of them. The beginning was tough.In a rush to plate dishes,I burned my arm on a hot pan.My knife skills were too slow for the head chef,who snapped,"Faster!This isn't for grandma!"Another night,with orders piling up,I nearly dropped a full tray of desserts.Exhausted,I began doubting if I was fit for this world. Yet I didn't give up.I practiced cutting techniques late each night,studied classic recipes until they became second nature,and trained myself to focus on one task at a time to keep calm. Slowly,I became faster and steadier.Eventually,the same strict chef gave a nod and said, c“Better.. Looking back,I realize that aiming high is important,but real growth comes from pushing through difficulties with honesty and perseverance.Now,whenever I speak to young students,I tell them:follow your passion,but understand-success isn't just about reaching the peak.True fulfillment lies in learning through challenges and choosing a path that matches both your dreams and your well-being. 24.What is the main purpose of the passage? A.To show how the author overcame early career challenges and gained wisdom. B.To advise young people to think twice before entering the culinary industry C.To describe the daily life of a top chef in a Michelin-starred restaurant. D.To compare cooking for others with cooking for oneself. 25.Why did the author begin to doubt whether he belonged in a top kitchen? A.He preferred cooking for himself rather than for customers. B.He made mistakes and felt exhausted under pressure. C.He disliked the heat and noise of the environment. D.His head chef never praised his efforts. 26.According to the passage,what is the author's overall attitude toward being a top chef? A.It should be avoided unless one can handle extreme stress easily B.It is admirable but may not suit everyone's lifestyle and health. C.It is the only way to prove one's true passion for cooking. D.It is less rewarding than other careers in the food industry. 27.From the author's advice to young students,we can conclude that he believes A.personal well-being should be part of one's definition of success B.avoiding challenges is necessary for a balanced life C.passion alone is enough to achieve one's dreams D.becoming a top chef is the only true success 0 You may not catch them on TikTok or Snapchat,but the latest data shows that the over-70s are spending more time online than any generation besides Gen Z. According to figures from the Office for National Statistics detailing how different Britons report spending their time,the 70-plus age group is second only to those in their 20s when it comes to the average amount of time using a computer or device as a primary activity separate from working or watching streamed video.The over-70 spent more time web browsing,checking email,and on other computer use than any other age group surveyed-but also spent the least time just three minutes a day on social media. The Internet can have great benefits for older people,according to the digital inclusion charity Good Things Foundation,whether it is making it easier to stay connected with loved ones, keeping up to date with the latest news,or making health care appointments. Katie Heard,the head of research and data insight at the charity,said:"We know older people are most likely to be digitally excluded because they don't have digital skills,so this data may initially appear surprising.However,there is a significant proportion of this age group that has embraced the change.Many people aged over 70 have benefited by joining thousands of others to gain digital skills in local digital inclusion hubs." Older people are increasingly using the Internet to interact with key services.Separate figures found that pensioners were the most active users of the NHS app last year-with two-thirds of users over retirement age accessing the app within the most recent three months of data-273,500 of whom were over 80 years old. Caroline Abrahams,the charity director at Age UK,said it was good to see older people crossing the digital divide and that being online could offer a range of benefits.However,she also warned:There is a need for more support to help those older people who want to go online to do so,but it's also vital that those who aren't IT users can continue to access services of all kinds in other ways.They shouldn't be forced into a digital world just because it cuts costs for business or the government we should be using digital tech to expand choice for people,not restrict it. 28.According to the survey,which of the following activities do the over-70s spend the least time on? A.Playing computer games. B.Browsing the Internet. C.Using social media. D.Checking emails 29.From paragraph 3,what can we infer about the role of"digital inclusion hubs"? A.They have helped many over-70s overcome barriers to going online. B.They are run by the government to replace traditional services. C.They focus on providing healthcare services through apps. D.They mainly teach older people how to use social media. 30.What can we infer from Katie Heard's comments in paragraph 4? A.The high online activity of some seniors reflects their efforts to overcome digital barriers B.Younger generations are better learners at digital inclusion hubs than older people. C.Local hubs mainly focus on teaching older adults to use entertainment apps. D.Most over-70s still refuse to learn digital skills despite the benefits. 31.What can be concluded from the NHS app usage and Caroline Abrahams'warning together? A.Even with growing adoption,non-digital access remains essential for some seniors. B.Digital health services should replace all offline options to save costs. C.People over 80 are unwilling to use any form of online services. D.Pensioners prefer social media over practical apps like the NHS. 0 Authors once turned to fire to be rid of writing they didn't want the world to read.Terry Pratchett took a slightly more creative-and modern-route.He ordered that his hard drive be destroyed after his death.The destroyed drive is now on display at England's Salisbury Museum. The extreme action represents a new solution to a question that has troubled authors,their families,and their publishers for centuries:If an author doesn't want his or her work published after his or her death,must families and publishers comply-even if they believe the work is valuable?"You could say that on the one hand,an author should enjoy a kind of sovereignty over his or her unpublished material...,"says Paul Saint-Amour,a professor of humanities at the University of Pennsylvania But what about the possible loss to world culture?Franz Kafka,for example,told his friend Max Brod he wanted his unpublished works burned after his death.If Brod had done so,Kafka's masterpieces The Trial and The Castle would have been destroyed.Was Brod right not to do so? Sometimes an author's desires are difficult to recognize.The family of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo author Stieg Larsson used another writer to complete one of his unfinished novels. But Larsson's partner,Eva Gabrielsson,said Larsson would never have wanted that.To Kill a Mockingbird author Harper Lee was alive but older when her second work,Go Set a Watchman, was released in 2015.Questions were raised as to whether this was really Lee's wish.(The Alabama Securities Commission stated that it was.) Sometimes a good compromise can be waiting for a period of time before publication. Professor Saint-Amour points to De Profundis,Oscar Wilde's 1897 letter to a male lover.The full text appeared in 1962-long after the letter's recipient and his family had died.Saint-Amour says, "I think that those surface solutions can be elegant in that they recognize the long-term cultural interest in a work while also recognizing that certain kinds of expressive works can be sensitive for the living." 32.What does the underlined word"comply"in Paragraph 2 mean? A.Attempt.B.Ignore.C.Deny.D.Obey. 33.What does the author want to show by using the example of Franz Kafka? A.It's hard to say if it's right to go against the author. B.Going against the author doesn't do any good. C.The author's wishes should be respected. D.Not all friends can be trusted. 34.How might Stieg Larsson feel about his family's behavior according to Eva Gabrielsson? A.Unconcerned. B.Dissatisfied. C.Grateful. D.Proud. 35.What would be a possible solution according to the last paragraph? A.Having the works judged before publication. B.Publishing the works after the author dies C.Talking the author into publication. D.Putting off publishing the works. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Relationships between teenagers and parents can sometimes become difficult.You are growing up and forming your own ideas.36 Here are some useful tips to improve your relationship.

epilepsy.Epilepsy is a terrible disease that causes a person to move his body suddenly and violently.When the human body is going to suffer from epilepsy,it gives off a smell that a regular person isn't able to find.But my dog is able to smell it about fifteen to twenty minutes before I can feel it.And once he smells that,he then starts to bark and run my legs as he was trained regardless of the time of the day or anything else.I am trained at that point to immediately lie down.And the reason is to prevent falls or injuries.Since I had this dog I've had no injuries at all.He can do about thirty other commands.He has given me independence and the ability to do things I wasn't able to do before.That's amazing. 第二部分阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） A篇 21.A

Competition要求申请者为15-l8岁的美国公民或永久居民，或10-12年级 学生。A项大学毕业不符；B项12岁且非美国公民；C项擅长体育但未提写作/艺术，且未 说明年龄及国籍；D项16岁美国女孩热爱写作，符合条件。 第二部分阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） B篇(2427题) 24.A 【详解】文章主要讲述作者毕业后进入顶级餐厅后厨，经历挫折、坚持练习、最终获得认可 的故事，并在最后一段总结“成功不只是登顶，真正的满足在于通过挑战学习，选择与梦想 和幸福匹配的道路”。因此主要目的是展示作者如何克服早期职业挑战并获得智慧。B项“劝 年轻人三思”不是重点；C项“描述顶级厨师日常生活”是部分内容；D项“比较为自己和 为他人做饭”未提及。 25.B 【详解】根据第三段，作者在高压下烧伤手臂、刀工被训斥、差点打翻甜点，感到筋疲力尽， 于是开始怀疑自己是否适合顶级厨房。A项“更喜欢为自己做饭”未提；C项“不喜欢环境” 不是直接原因；D项“主厨从不表扬”与文末“Better”矛盾。 26.B 【详解】作者承认顶级厨师需要热情、奉献和努力，但最后强调“成功与幸福并重”，并建 议年轻人选择与自身幸福匹配的道路。因此作者的态度是：成为顶级厨师值得钦佩，但并不 适合每个人的生活方式和健康。A项“除非能轻松承受压力否则应避免”过于绝对；C项“是 证明烹饪热情的唯一方式”错误：D项“不如其他行业有价值”未体现。 27.A 【详解】作者在最后一段告诉年轻学生：“成功不只是登顶…真正的满足在于通过挑战学 习，选择与梦想和幸福匹配的道路。”这表明他认为个人幸福应成为成功定义的一部分。B 项“避免挑战”相反；C项“仅凭热情就足够”忽略努力和平衡；D项“成为顶级厨师是唯 一成功”错误。 C篇(2831题) 28.C 【详解】第二段明确提到70岁以上人群“spent the least time just three minutes a day on social media”,即每天仅花3分钟在社交媒体上。A项“玩电脑游戏”未提及；B项“浏览网页” 和D项“查邮件”是花费时间较多的活动。 29.A 【详解】第四段Katie Heard指出，很大一部分70岁以上人群已经接受变化，并“通过当地 的数字包容中心获得了数字技能”。因此这些中心帮助许多老年人克服了上网障碍。B项“由 政府运营替代传统服务”无依据；C项“专注于通过pp提供医疗服务”偏离：D项“主要 教老年人用社交媒体”过于狭窄。 30.A 【详解】Katie Heard说数据“乍看令人惊讶”，但相当一部分老年人已经拥抱变化并从中 受益。这反映出一些老年人的高在线活动是他们努力克服数字障碍的结果。B项“年轻人学 习更好”未比较；C项“中心主要教娱乐pp”未提；D项“大多数0岁以上仍拒绝学习” 与“significant proportion has embraced”矛盾。 31.A 【详解】NHS app数据显示大量老年人（包括80岁以上）积极使用；而Caroline Abrahams 警告：既要支持想上网的老年人，也要确保非T用户能通过其他方式获得服务，不应因节 省成本而强迫他们进入数字世界。两者结合得出：即使数字采用率增长，非数字接入对部分 老年人仍然必要。B项“应完全替换线下选项”与警告相反：C项“80岁以上不愿使用任 何在线服务”与数据矛盾；D项“养老金领取者更喜欢社交媒体”未提。 D篇(3235题) 32.D 【详解】第二段划线词“copy”所在句意为：如果作者不希望自己死后作品被出版，家人 和出版商是否必须遵从（即使他们认为作品有价值）？根据上下文，copy意为“遵守、 顺从”，与oby同义。A项“尝试”、B项“忽视”、C项“否认”均不正确。 33.A 【详解】作者用卡夫卡的例子（要求朋友烧毁未出版作品，朋友未从，结果杰作得以流传） 并提问“布罗德这样做对吗？”旨在说明违背作者意愿是否正确很难判断。B项“违背作者 没有好处”与事实相反（产生了杰作）；C项“作者意愿应被尊重”但例子中违背意愿却带 来了好处；D项“不是所有朋友都可信”偏离主题。 34.B 【详解】根据第五段，斯蒂格·拉尔森的伴侣说“拉尔森绝不会想要那样”，因此拉尔森对 家人找人完成其未完成小说的行为会感到“不满意”。A项“不关心”、C项“感激”、D 项“骄傲”均不符合。 35.D 【详解】最后一段提出的折中方案是“等待一段时间再出版”，并举例王尔德的信件在收信 人及其家人去世多年后才全文出版。因此可能的解决办法是“推迟出版”。A项“出版前评 判”、B项“作者死后出版”（可能立即出版，不是折中）、C项“劝说作者同意”均不是 文中提到的方案。 第二节（共5小题：每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 36.G 【详解】本空位于第一段末尾，前句说“你在成长并形成自己的想法”，后句说“这里有一 些改善关系的建议”。G项“与父母有不同的观点是正常的”承上启下，符合逻辑。其他选 项：A项“从他们的角度看问题”属于具体建议，不应放在开头总起；C项“父母变老”未 提及；D项“避免生气时交谈”也是具体建议：E项“每个人都需要爱”太宽泛；F项“小 改变带来大不同”也是后文内容；B项“找时间陪伴”也是具体建议。 37.D 【详解】第一条建议是耐心沟通。空后说“平静地让他们知道你的想法”。D项“你应该避 免在生气时与他们交谈”与“不要争吵或喊叫”直接呼应，且为后续“平静表达”做铺垫。 A项“从他们的角度看问题”是第三条建议的内容；B项“找时间陪伴”是第二条建议；F 项“小改变”不具体。 38.B 【详解】第二条建议是“多花时间在一起”。空前说“繁忙的学业可能让你远离家人”，空 后说“一起吃饭、看电影等简单活动有助于保持亲密”。B项“找到时间陪伴他们很重要” 正好连接前后。A项“从他们的角度”是第三条；D项“避免生气时交谈”已用；F项“小 改变”不直接。 39.A 【详解】第三条建议是“换位思考”。空前说“父母总是担心你的安全和未来”，空后说“他 们的建议来自爱和经验”。A项“尝试从他们的角度看问题”直接对应换位思考。C项“父 母变老”未提；E项“每个人都需要爱”较泛；F项“小改变”不匹配。 40.f 【详解】最后一条建议是“表达爱与感谢”。空前说“小行动能温暖他们的心”，空后说“你 的家庭生活会变得更快乐轻松”。F项“做出小改变会产生大不同”总结并过渡到结果。E 项“每个人都需要家人的爱”虽相关，但不如F项更贴合“小行动→大改变”的逻辑。

【详解】现在分词作结果状语，表示“连接了东部、中部和西部”。主动关系，用linking。 4.with 【详解】介词短语表示“具有…总投资”，with a total investment of.为常用搭配。 5.to be completed 【详解】be expected to do sth.,且主语“project'”与complete之间为被动关系，故用tobe completed。

Paragraph 2: However,the praise also brought unexpected problems.The next day,Jack told several classmates that Tom's painting wasn't original."No way a shy guy like him could paint that,"Jack whispered.Soon,some students began to doubt Tom.Tom overheard them and felt his heart sink again.At lunch,Anna found him sitting alone."Don't listen to them,"she said."Mr.Zhang knows the truth.Tom nodded and decided to keep painting,not for prizes,but to prove to himself that he was a real artist.When the school art club opened applications,Tom signed up- something he would never have done before.
