B For several months, Cara has been working up the courage to talk to her mom about what she saw on Instagram. Not long ago, the 11-year-old girl discovered that her mom had been posting her photos for much of her life. “It’s strange to see myself up there, and sometimes there are pictures I don’t like of myself,” she said. Like most other modern kids, Cara grew up under the influence of social media. Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube were all founded before she was born. Instagram has existed since she was a toddler. Although many kids may not yet have accounts (账户) themselves, their parents, schools, sports teams have been organizing an online one for them since birth. It is a shock to know that details about their lives have been shared online without their permission or knowledge. And this has become a common experience for many teenagers. Recently a parenting blogger (博主) said that despite her 14-year-old daughter’s horror at discovering that her mother had shared years of highly personal information about her online, she simply could not stop doing it. But it’s not just crazy mommy bloggers who share their children’s information on social media. Plenty of average parents do the same. There’s even a special word for it: sharenting. Almost a quarter of children begin their digital lives when parents upload their prenatal sonogram scans (产前超声波扫描) to the Internet, according to a study conducted by the Internet-security company AVG. The study also found that 92 percent of kids under the age of 2 already have their own unique online identity (身份). 24. What does the underlined word “toddler” in the second paragraph probably mean? A. Teenage girl. B. Very young child. C. Elementary school student. D. High school student. 25. What’s Cara’s attitude towards her mom’s posting? A. Supportive. B. Doubtful. C. Negative. D. Uninteresting. 26. What can we infer from Paragraph 4? A. AVG is the name of an Internet company. B. About 25% of children begin their digital lives before they are born. C. Fathers don’t like to share their kids’ information on social media. D. Average parents created the word “sharenting” on the Internet recently. 27. What can be a suitable title for the article? A. Growing up on the Internet B. A New Word Born C. Parents Lost in Blogging D. The Children’s Horror C In 2026, digital technology is deeply integrated into all aspects of social life, and Chinese traditional festivals are embracing digital innovation while keeping their traditional core connotation. This new change not only makes festival celebrations more convenient and diverse, but also attracts more young people to pay attention to and inherit traditional festival culture. First, digital technology breaks the geographical limitations of festival reunions. For young people who work and study in other cities, “cloud reunion” has become a popular way to celebrate festivals in 2026. They can have video calls with their families, watch the Spring Festival Gala online together, and even share the New Year’s Eve dinner through live broadcast. This digital form relieves the homesickness of people who cannot return home, and also keeps the warmth of family reunion. Second, digital technology enriches the forms of traditional festival customs. The traditional custom of sending red envelopes has evolved into digital red envelopes, which can be sent with just a click on mobile payment platforms. Lantern riddles solving, a classic custom of the Lantern Festival, is moved to online platforms, where people can guess riddles anytime and anywhere and get small electronic prizes. Folk performances such as dragon dance and shadow puppetry are also live-streamed on short video platforms, allowing millions of people to watch and appreciate them for free. Third, digital technology promotes the international spread of traditional festival culture. Many cultural and museum institutions have launched online international exhibitions of Chinese traditional festivals in 2026, introducing the origin, customs and cultural connotation of festivals to foreign friends through 3D technology and multilingual short videos. A large number of young Chinese people also create short videos of traditional festival celebrations and post them on international social media, making Chinese festival culture known to more people around the world. It is important to note that digital innovation is only a tool to enrich festival forms, and the core of traditional festivals such as family affection, unity and gratitude will never change. The integration of digital technology and traditional festivals makes Chinese festival culture more vibrant in the new era. 28. What is the popular way for young people in other cities to celebrate festivals in 2026? A. Holding small parties with colleagues B. Traveling to scenic spots alone C. Having “cloud reunion” with families via digital technology D. Participating in local folk festival activities 29. Which of the following is a digital innovation form of traditional festival customs? A. Making hand-written Spring Festival couplets B. Sending digital red envelopes via mobile payment platforms C. Making traditional zongzi with family members D. Watching dragon dance performances on the spot 30. How does digital technology promote the international spread of Chinese festival culture? A. By holding large-scale offline folk performances in foreign countries B. By launching online international festivals exhibitions with digital technology C. By organizing Chinese people to celebrate traditional festivals abroad D. By selling traditional festival handcrafts to foreign tourists 31. What is the main idea of this passage? A. The history and traditional customs of Chinese traditional festivals B. The influence of digital technology on people’s daily life in 2026 C. The integration of digital technology and Chinese traditional festivals in 2026 D. The differences between traditional and digital festival celebrations D Pioneering eye doctor Professor Fred Hollows had a simple vision that everyone in the world should have access to good eye care and sight-restoring surgery. Instead of building a profitable private practice, Fred chose to focus on breaking down the barriers to eye care for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in Australia and for people in poor countries worldwide. Unfortunately, in 1989, Fred was diagnosed with cancer. Knowing his time was limited, he became a man on a mission to make sure his work would continue. Just before he passed away in 1993, he was convinced by his wife, Gabi Hollows, to establish The Fred Hollows Foundation. Gabi, the Foundation’s founding director, describes their work as “like dropping a stone in the lake and watching the ripples grow.” Fred’s early approach was simple: treat eye problems, train local eye health workers, and make technology affordable. This “treat, train and equip” method became the blueprint for the Foundation’s work. For example, in Nepal, Fred partnered with a young doctor, Sanduk Ruit. Together, they set up training and built factories that could produce high-quality lenses (晶体) for eye surgery for less than 5，ahugereductionfromthe150 they cost in industrialised countries. Over the past 30 years, The Fred Hollows Foundation has restored sight to more than 3 million people worldwide. It has also delivered over 200 million doses of antibiotics to fight trachoma (沙眼), an infectious disease that causes blindness. The Foundation has persuaded governments to include eye health in their national health plans. Fred was driven by a powerful sense of injustice. He believed it was “not right to let people go blind when they don’t have to.” Today, the Foundation he inspired is one of Australia’s best-known charities. Though there are still many challenges, his Foundation and his spirit live on, ensuring his crucial work continues across the globe. 32. Why was The Fred Hollows Foundation established? A. To continue Fred’s mission. B. To expand a private clinic. C. To get support from government. D. To honor Gabi Hollows. 33. How was lens cost reduced? A. By importing cheaper ones. B. By producing lens locally. C. By receiving donations. D. By reusing surgical lenses. 34. Which words can best describe Fred? A. Selfless and responsible. B. Ambitious and humble. C. Reserved and ordinary. D. Cautious and fortunate. 35. What does the passage mainly describe? A. Advances in eye surgery. B. A doctor’s charity mission. C. The history of trachoma. D. Charity management in Australia. 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。 An increasing number of people choose to learn a foreign language, but in the process of learning, they may develop foreign language anxiety (FLA). 36 Anxiety can make us perform poorly because it divides our attention. Athletes and performing artists are able to work effectively under great pressure. 37 They forget about everything other than the task at hand. If you can focus only on the task at hand, you might enjoy the experience and turn stress into productive energy. One way to deal with FLA is to accept making mistakes. 38 Perfectionists cannot accept making mistakes. However, being afraid of making mistakes can affect how well you do and how much you enjoy it. Taking risks when speaking your second language helps build confidence. To beat anxiety, be brave. When you meet a foreigner, it’s sometimes a good idea to have the goal of “We’re going to understand each other.” rather than “I’m going to speak correctly.” 39 Learning a new language makes people see the world differently. Our new language holds much of how we view the world and connect with others. Speaking a second language might make us worry that people are misunderstanding who we really are. 40 We may find freedom in accepting that we can’t control how others see us. It’s okay if few people know you as well as you know yourself. Since you can’t be the same person in your second language as you are in your native one, you get the chance to create a new identity. A. You have a limited vocabulary. B. You can also think the other way. C. However, there’s a positive side too. D. This is because they enter a special state. E. We should not always be afraid of making mistakes. F. FLA has a bad effect on learning and performance. G. A study found that FLA is related to perfectionism. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 My husband and I were on our flight to America.

What do you want me to do, doc?” “Put it down,” I replied. Although I don’t know 53 what resulted in the man’s trouble, the truth is, travel for 54 can be stressful, and there’s enormous potential for medical treatments. Three weeks later, I received a thank-you note from the gentleman, who will 55 remain in good health for years to come. Seeing each patient getting well again is the best gift for a doctor. 41.

The first-grade teacher gave her class a fun assignment (任务) — to draw a picture of something for which they were thankful. Most of the class might be considered economically disadvantaged, but still, many would celebrate the holiday with turkey and other traditional goodies of the season. These, the teacher thought, would be the subjects of most of her students’ art. And they were. But Douglas made a different kind of picture. Douglas was a different kind of boy. He was the teacher’s true child of misery, weakness and unhappiness. His father died in a car accident and the driver wasn’t turned up yet. When first introduced to the teacher, the tiny shy boy greeted her in a timid tone, with his head down. She felt as if her heart were broken when he hesitated back and forth, glancing now and then at other kids playing games. She promised that she would help him out. As other children played on the playground, Douglas was likely to stand close by her side, one hand in hers. One could only guess at the pain Douglas felt behind those sad eyes. Yes, his picture was different. When asked to draw a picture of something for which he was thankful, he drew a hand. Nothing else. Just an empty hand. （1）续写词数应为150左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。 His abstract picture attracted the imagination of his classmates. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When the children had gone on to other assignments, she paused at Douglas’ desk, bent down, and asked him whose hand it was. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
