The contest is held annually to engage young minds, emphasizing various issues related to fire safety education. Contest rules ·Posters must include a fire prevention theme. ·Posters must display positive behavior statements of what students can do to prevent a fire at home. ·Posters must only be on 8. 5 × 11-inch paper. ·Any colors may be used; however, a white or light-colored background is preferred. ·Crayons, markers, pencils and similar tools can be used. ·All artwork must be original. Computer-generated images and clippings from magazines and newspapers will not be accepted. ·The poster surface should remain flat. Contest procedures Elementary schools across the state must turn over the posters to their local fire departments prior to the September 30 deadline, so those entries can be displayed during Fire Prevention Week (October 6-12) . Then each of the local departments must select two winning posters — one from each grade category (grades 1-3 and 4-6) and submit them to the State Fire Marshal's Office by November 15. A committee will review all the submitted posters and select six winners in each grade category. Winning entries will be announced next spring. Additional information on the contest is available at com. ohio. gov/SFMPosterContest. 1. Why are primary school students encouraged to join in the contest? A. To stimulate their creative minds. B. To display their brilliant artistic skills. C. To learn more about local fire departments. D. To raise their awareness of fire safety and prevention. 2. Which of the following will probably result in disqualification? A. Drawing on a 8. 5 × 11-inch paper. B. Using AI tools to generate images. C. Centering on a fire prevention theme. D. Choosing a dark-colored background. 3. How many winning entries will be announced next spring? A. 2. B. 4. C. 6. D. 12. 【答案】1. D 2. B 3. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了俄亥俄州消防局长办公室举办的小学生消防安全海报比赛的相关信息，包括比赛目的、规则、流程等。 【1题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段中的“Engaging people in fire safety and prevention from an early age is crucial, so the State Fire Marshal’s Office is inviting primary school students across Ohio to participate in its Fire Safety Poster Contest.(从小就让人们参与消防安全和预防至关重要，因此俄亥俄州消防局长办公室邀请俄亥俄州各地的小学生参加其消防安全海报比赛。)”可知，俄亥俄州消防局长办公室邀请小学生参加消防安全海报比赛是因为从小让人们参与消防安全和预防至关重要，由此可以推测出，鼓励小学生参加比赛是为了提高他们的消防安全和预防意识。故选D项。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Contest rules部分中“All artwork must be original. Computer-generated images and clippings from magazines and newspapers will not be accepted.(所有艺术作品必须是原创的。不接受计算机生成的图像和杂志、报纸上的剪报。)”可知，不接受计算机生成的图像，由此可知，使用人工智能工具生成图像可能会导致取消资格。故选B项。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章Contest procedures部分中“Then each of the local departments must select two winning posters — one from each grade category (grades 1-3 and 4-6) and submit them to the State Fire Marshal's Office by November 15. A committee will review all the submitted posters and select six winners in each grade category. Winning entries will be announced next spring.(然后，每个地方部门必须从每个年级类别（1-3年级和4-6年级）中选出两张获奖海报，并在11月15日前提交给州消防局长办公室。委员会将审查所有提交的海报，并在每个年级类别中选出六名获奖者。获奖作品将于明年春天公布。)”可知，每个地方部门必须从每个年级类别（1-3年级和4-6年级）中选出两张获奖海报，然后委员会将在每个年级类别中选出六名获奖者，所以明年春天将宣布12个获奖作品。故选D项。 B In a quiet corner of Montreal, Canada, 72-year-old Elaine McBride has spent the past decade breathing new life into abandoned books. Her small basement workshop, lined with shelves of torn classics and water-stained novels, is a haven for literature that others regarded beyond repair. “Every book has a story worth preserving,” she says, her fingers brushing the worn cover of a 1940s edition of Pride and Prejudice. McBride’s mission began accidentally. After retiring from her job as a librarian, she came across a pile of damaged books destined for landfill. Horrified by the waste, she taught herself bookbinding and restoration techniques through online tutorials and old craft manuals. “I started with glue and patience,” she laughs. Now, her tools include specialized paperweights, acid-free adhesives, and a vintage press passed down from her grandfather. Over the years, McBride has restored over 2,000 books, donating most to community centers, schools, and prisons. One of her most memorable projects was reviving a fire-damaged copy of The Little Prince for a local children’s hospital. “The child who received it traced the charred (烧焦的) pages and said, ‘Now it’s like me — burned but still loved,’” she recalls. Her work has also inspired a group of teenagers from a nearby high school to join her, learning the art of restoration while listening to her stories of literary history. McBride’s efforts highlight a quiet revolution in a digital age: the belief that physical books hold irreplaceable value. “In a world of screens, these pages are tangible memories,” she says. Though her hands now ache after long hours, she shows no sign of slowing down. “Each book I save is a promise that stories outlive their shelves.” 4. What inspired Elaine McBride to start restoring books? A. A desire to teach others craft skills. B. The sight of books being thrown away. C. Her grandpa’s old bookbinding tools. D. A childhood love for classic literature. 5. Why does the author mention the fire damaged The Little Prince? A. To illustrate McBride’s technical skills. B. To stress the emotional impact of her work. C. To compare different restoration challenges. D. To show the popularity of children’s books. 6. What can be inferred from the words of McBride in paragraph 4? A. Stories need new bookshelves to stay popular. B. Damaged books can hardly carry any stories. C. McBride promises to keep worn books restored. D. Physical books can go beyond the physical form. 7. Which words best describe Elaine McBride? A. Brave and responsible. B. Selfish and greedy. C. Patient and generous. D. Ambitious and decisive. 【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了退休图书管理员Elaine McBride通过自学修复技术拯救被丢弃的书籍，捐赠给社区机构，其工作不仅保留故事的价值，更传递情感共鸣，展现了实体书在数字时代的不可替代性。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“After retiring from her job as a librarian, she came across a pile of damaged books destined for landfill. Horrified by the waste, she taught herself bookbinding and restoration techniques through online tutorials and old craft manuals. (从图书馆员岗位退休后，她偶然发现了一堆将被当作垃圾处理的破损书籍。对如此浪费感到震惊的她，通过在线教程和古老的手工手册自学了书籍装订和修复技术)”可知，看到书籍被丢弃的场景让Elaine McBride萌生了修复书籍的想法。故选B项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“One of her most memorable projects was reviving a fire-damaged copy of The Little Prince for a local children’s hospital. “The child who received it traced the charred (烧焦的) pages and said, ‘Now it’s like me — burned but still loved,’” she recalls. (她最难忘的项目之一是为当地儿童医院修复了一本被火烧过的《小王子》。“收到这本书的孩子抚摸着烧焦的书页说：‘现在它和我一样——被烧伤但仍被爱着，’”她回忆道)”可知，这本《小王子》抚慰了这个孩子的心灵，让处于相似处境的他深感被爱着，这强调了她的工作带来的情感共鸣。故选B项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“In a world of screens, these pages are tangible memories (在这个充满屏幕的世界里，这些书页是实实在在的记忆)”和“Each book I save is a promise that stories outlive their shelves. (每本我拯救的书都是一个承诺：故事会比书架更长久)”可知，实体书承载着真切的记忆和永恒的故事，能超越其物质形式。故选D项。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“In a quiet corner of Montreal, Canada, 72-year-old Elaine McBride has spent the past decade breathing new life into abandoned books. (在加拿大蒙特利尔一个安静的角落，72岁的Elaine McBride在过去十年里一直致力于为被遗弃的书籍注入新生)”可知，她在十年时间里致力于修复被遗弃的书籍，说明富有耐心；再根据第三段中“Over the years, McBride has restored over 2,000 books, donating most to community centers, schools, and prisons. (这些年来，McBride已经修复了2000多本书，大部分捐赠给了社区中心、学校和监狱)”可知，她把大部分修复好的书籍捐了出去，说明非常慷慨。故选C项。 C Every day on the sides of streets across Japan, from major urban intersections to sleepy rural pathways, stand young children, ready to rush out into traffic. But Tobita-kun, the name by which the children are commonly known, never actually makes it out onto the road. These “children” are in fact a style of wooden signs that for the last half century has warned the nation’s drivers to watch for children who may unexpectedly rush into traffic. Often handmade by local councils. Tobita-kun has become an icon (图标) on Japan’s roadways and made a big difference in improving road safety in the country. Across Japan, traffic accidents rocketed up through the 1960s, a period known locally as the “Traffic War”. Indeed, as a Japanese government department reported, in 1970 there were 16,765 deadly road accidents recorded nationwide — a rate of 16.33 per 100,000. Out of the chaos, however, emerged a cultural icon. Never officially named, Tobita-kun is recognized by similar names depending on the region, all generally translated as “jumping out boy”. Tobita-kun’s design has been diversified over the decades. Structurally, the signs are commonly made of wood fashioned into the shape of a small, cartoonish child. Ready-made plastic versions are available in stores, although Japan’s local volunteer safety councils continue to make and paint wooden versions by hand. The classic design called “Series 0” was created in June 1973 by a signmaker who, five decades later, together with his son, still produces classic Tobita-kun signs for local parent-teacher associations who request custom designs. Indeed as the classic “Series 0” signs spread throughout Japan in the 1970s, countless regional variations appeared, usually featuring Tobita-kun wearing a locality’s traditional dress. To explain the ongoing popularity of Tobita-kun in this country, Japanese pop culture expert Taylor Atkins says, “In some ways, various versions of Tobita-kun are similar to the municipal mascots (市政吉祥物). Towns and cities now have to promote and distinguish themselves.” 8. What does Tobita-kun serve as? A. A road project. B. A reference guide. C. A safety reminder. D. A direction indicator. 9. Why does the author write paragraph 2? A. To offer background information. B. To introduce a new phenomenon. C. To explain a sign’s cultural shifts. D. To compare traffic improvements. 10. What does the author say about Tobita-kun in paragraph 3? A. It resulted from father-son cooperation. B. It has developed into different varieties. C. It is commonly custom-made by hand. D. It is primarily generated by volunteers. 11. Which might be the trend in Tobita-kun signs? A. Being uniquely styled. B. Being turned into mascots. C. Spreading to other countries. D. Featuring artwork elements. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. B 11. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了日本一种名为Tobita-kun“飞出小子”的木制道路安全标志的起源、发展及其文化意义。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“These “children” are in fact a style of wooden signs that for the last half century has warned the nation’s drivers to watch for children who may unexpectedly rush into traffic. (这些“孩子”实际上是一种木制标志，在过去半个世纪里一直警告全国的司机注意可能突然冲入车流的儿童。)”可知，Tobita-kun充当了一种安全提醒。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Across Japan, traffic accidents rocketed up through the 1960s… in 1970 there were 16,765 deadly road accidents recorded nationwide… Out of the chaos, however, emerged a cultural icon. Never officially named, Tobita-kun is recognized by similar names depending on the region, all generally translated as “jumping out boy”. (在整个日本，20世纪60年代交通事故激增……1970年全国记录了16765起致命交通事故……然而，从这种混乱中诞生了一个文化标志。Tobita-kun从来没有正式的名字，根据不同的地区，人们用类似的名字来称呼它，通常都被翻译为“飞出小子”。)”可知，Tobita-kun最初是为应对上世纪60年代高发的交通事故而诞生。由此可知，作者写第二段是为了提供背景信息。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Tobita-kun’s design has been diversified over the decades. Structurally, the signs are commonly made of wood fashioned into the shape of a small, cartoonish child. Ready-made plastic versions are available in stores, although Japan’s local volunteer safety councils continue to make and paint wooden versions by hand. (Tobita-kun的设计在几十年间经历了多样化的发展。从结构上讲，这些标识通常由木头制成，形状为一个小小的、卡通风格的小孩模样。商店里也有现成的塑料标识，不过日本当地的志愿者安全委员会仍会手工制作并涂绘木制标识。)”可知，Tobita-kun已经发展出不同的种类。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Indeed as the classic “Series 0” signs spread throughout Japan in the 1970s, countless regional variations appeared, usually featuring Tobita-kun wearing a locality’s traditional dress. (事实上，在20世纪70年代，“0系列”标志在日本广泛传播开来的同时，各地也出现了众多不同的变体版本，这些版本通常都描绘着Tobita-kun身着当地的传统服饰的形象。)”和“Towns and cities now have to promote and distinguish themselves. (如今，各个城镇和城市都必须努力提升自身形象并形成独特的特色。)”可推知，Tobita-kun标志的趋势可能是拥有独特的风格。 D Today, the widespread ability to use Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services in online retail is transforming how consumers pay for purchases. Rather than relying on traditional payment methods, consumers are increasingly using BNPL services to spread payments across interest-free installments (免息分期付款). In new research, we found that BNPL adoption led to immediate and substantial increases in spending. Consumers who adopted BNPL were more likely to purchase, with purchase probability increasing from 17% to 26%. Furthermore, when adopting consumers made purchases, their basket sizes were 10% larger on average than before the introduction of BNPL. Furthermore, the data also reveals a significant aspect of BNPL’s influence on consumer spending patterns. In subsequent tracking studies, it was observed that these increases in spending were not transitory: They lasted for close to six months, showing that BNPL drives lasting gains rather than short-term rises in consumer spending. To understand how BNPL increases spending, we conducted experiments and found that participants who paid in installments felt less financially constrained (财务受限) than those who paid in full. BNPL’s ability to divide payments into smaller amounts gives consumers a sense of better control over their budget. Smaller payments seemed more manageable, even when larger payments were delayed. Additionally, the smaller amounts made consumers feel the cost was less important, encouraging them to add more items to their purchases. At first glance, BNPL may seem like a win-win for both sellers and consumers. However, our findings suggest that sellers are most likely to see increased spending from financially constrained consumers who rely on credit cards. Given that BNPL can encourage overborrowing and lead to financial pressure, it’s important to be careful about who is offered BNPL and how much they can use. Like a tempting dessert, BNPL can seem appealing short-term but carries risks if overused, leading to a financial “sugar crash”. 12. What do we know about BNPL? A. It boosts consumer spending. B. It involves high-interest fees. C. It raises the price of products. D. It sets up a minimum purchase. 13. What does the underlined word “transitory” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Rapid. B. Fixed. C. Temporary. D. Permanent. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Ways of using BNPL services. B. BNPL’s influence on consumers. C. Disadvantages of paying in installments. D. A comparison of different payment methods. 15. Why does the author mention “tempting dessert” in the last paragraph? A. To urge people to stop using BNPL. B. To show the wide application of BNPL. C. To state the benefits of BNPL for sellers. D. To warn people to be cautious about BNPL. 【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章围绕“先买后付（BNPL）”服务展开，介绍其对消费者支出的影响、作用机制及潜在风险。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“In new research, we found that BNPL adoption led to immediate and substantial increases in spending. (在新的研究中，我们发现BNPL的采用立即导致了支出的显著增加。)” 以及第三段中“They lasted for close to six months, showing that BNPL drives lasting gains rather than short-term rises in consumer spending.(这些支出增长持续了近6个月，表明BNPL推动了消费者支出的持续增长，而非短期增长。)”可知，BNPL会促进消费者支出。故选A。 【13题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“In subsequent tracking studies, it was observed that these increases in spending were not transitory: They lasted for close to six months, showing that BNPL drives lasting gains rather than short-term rises in consumer spending.(在随后的跟踪研究中，观察到这些支出增长并非transitory：它们持续了近六个月，表明 BNPL 驱动了消费者支出的持续增长，而非短期增长。)”可知，句中not transitory与lasted for close to six months、lasting gains呼应，说明增长不是短期的，因此transitory意为“暂时的”。故选C。 【14题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“To understand how BNPL increases spending, we conducted experiments and found that participants who paid in installments felt less financially constrained (财务受限) than those who paid in full. BNPL’s ability to divide payments into smaller amounts gives consumers a sense of better control over their budget. Smaller payments seemed more manageable, even when larger payments were delayed. Additionally, the smaller amounts made consumers feel the cost was less important, encouraging them to add more items to their purchases.(为了理解 BNPL 如何增加支出，我们进行了实验，发现分期支付的参与者比全额支付的参与者感受到的财务压力更小。BNPL 能够将支付分割成更小的金额，这让消费者对自己的预算有了更好的控制感。即使大额支付被推迟，小额支付似乎也更容易管理。此外，小额支付让消费者觉得成本不那么重要，鼓励他们在购买中添加更多物品。)”可知，本段主要阐述了BNPL对消费者的影响（如减少财务约束感、促进多购物等）。故选B。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。最后一段中“Like a tempting dessert, BNPL can seem appealing short-term but carries risks if overused, leading to a financial ‘sugar crash’.(就像诱人的甜点一样，先买后付短期内可能看起来很有吸引力，但如果过度使用就会带来风险，导致财务上的“糖崩溃”)”，通过“诱人的甜点”类比 BNPL，说明其虽有吸引力但过度使用有风险，目的是警告人们要谨慎使用BNPL。故选D。 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。 Life as a student can be non-stop: homework, exams, and responsibilities often take over, and the things that truly light you up get pushed aside. When that happens, try spending some quiet time alone and ask yourself: What did I love doing as a kid that made time fly? ____16____ It’s simple, but it’s a good place to start rediscovering your hobbies and interests. Have you ever been so into a game, drawing, or music that you completely lost track of time? That’s what is called the “flow state”. ____17____ I might find it on my roller skates, while you might find it through basketball or writing stories. When you enter this state, it lifts your general happiness. Even so, many of us feel bad for taking time for hobbies. We’re often pressured to live a certain way: work hard, achieve measurable success, and always stay busy. However, if you keep pushing yourself without a break, you’ll finally run out. ____18____ But it gets easier over time. Having a hobby isn’t a waste of time — it’s a way to renew your energy. The good news is, you don’t need hours of free time to enjoy your hobbies. If what you love isn’t something you can do during the day, look for tiny moments of joy. ____19____ You could also play basketball for ten minutes after school. These small breaks become little islands of peace in a busy student life. ____20____ Start small, stay gentle with yourself, and remember: this isn’t selfish — it’s self-care. Being calm, happy, and at peace is your right, as a human being. A. So, make time to do what you love. B. You could read a few pages before bed. C. The path to it, though, is different for everyone. D. You may realize how much fun you have missed. E. Learning to feel comfortable caring for yourself takes time. F. This state of mind is not as difficult to achieve as you might think. G.

One day I received a call from Mrs Tompkin asking me to cut the beak (喙) of her budgie (虎皮鹦鹉). I armed myself with a pair of clippers and stepped onto the narrow strip of pavement which separated the door from the road. A pleasant-looking red-haired woman answered my knock. “I’m Mrs Dodds from next door,” she said. “I keep an eye on the old lady. She’s over eighty and lives alone.” She led me into the cramped little room. “Here’s Mr Herriot coming to see Peter for you,” she said to the old woman who sat in a corner. Mrs Tompkin nodded and smiled, “Oh that’s good. Poor little fella can hardly eat with its long beak and I’m worried about him. He’s my only companion, you know.” “Yes, I understand, Mrs Tompkin.” I looked at the cage by the window with the green budgie perched (栖息) inside. “These little birds can be wonderful company when they start chattering.” She laughed, “Yes, but it’s a funny thing. Peter never has said that much. I think he’s lazy! But I just like having him with me.” “Of course you do,” I said, “but he certainly needs attention now.” The beak was greatly overgrown, curving away down till it touched the feathers of the breast. I would be able to revolutionize his life with one quick snip from my clippers. The way I was feeling this job was right up my street. I opened the cage door and slowly inserted my hand. “Come on, Peter,” I wheedled (哄骗). As I lifted him out, I felt in my pocket with the other hand for the clippers. Then I stopped. The tiny head was no longer poking cheekily from my fingers but had fallen loosely to one side. The eyes were closed. He was dead. Mrs Dodds and I looked at each other in horror. When I turned my head towards Mrs Tompkin, I was surprised to see that she was still nodding and smiling. I drew her neighbor to one side. “Mrs Dodds, how much does she see?” “Oh, she’s very short-sighted but she’s right vain despite her age. Never would she wear glasses. She’s hard of hearing, too.” “Well, look,” I said. My heart was still pounding. “I just don’t know what to do. If I tell her about this, the shock will be terrible. Anything could happen.” Mrs Dodds nodded, stricken-faced. “Yes, you’re right. She’s that attached to the little thing.” 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。 I decided to do something for her instead of telling her the truth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was a long time before I went to see how Mrs Tompkin got along with the bird I bought for her. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: I decided to do something for her instead of telling her the truth. Suddenly it occurred to me that I could buy her a new bird in the nearby store. Mrs Dodds also thought it a good idea and even suggested one in the town. I cleared my throat, telling Mrs Tompkin that I was going to take Peter along to the surgery to do the job. I left her still nodding and smiling and, cage in hand, fled into the street. I soon found the shop and luckily there was a green budgie in the shop. With the bird in the cage, I sped back and hung it in its place by the window. “I think you’ll find everything is well now,” I told Mrs Tompkin. It was a long time before I went to see how Mrs Tompkin got along with the bird I bought for her. “How is the bird?” I said. The old lady led me in and then laughed. “Oh, you mean Peter. He is grand.” In the little room, the cage still hung by the window and Peter, the Second, hopped around the bars of the cage, running up and down his ladder. Mrs Tompkin looked lovingly at him. “You wouldn’t believe it,” she said. “He’s like a different bird, chattering to me all day long. It’s wonderful what cutting a beak can do.” Hearing this, I feel relieved — my efforts did bring her happiness. 【解析】 【导语】本文以时间为线索展开，讲述了作者在为一位老妇人的鹦鹉诊治时鹦鹉突然死了，作者担心这会让老妇人太难过，于是偷偷又买了一只鹦鹉替代，这只鹦鹉非常健康活泼，这让老妇人感到很开心。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我决定为她做点什么，而不是告诉她真相。”可知，第一段可描写作者决定不告诉汤普金夫人鹦鹉已经死了，偷偷买了另一只鹦鹉替代。 ②由第二段首句内容“过了很长一段时间，我才去看汤普金夫人和我给她买的鸟相处得怎么样。”可知，第二段可描写汤普金夫人非常开心，她和新鹦鹉相处得很好，并以为这就是原来的那只。 2.续写线索：想到主意——哄骗——买到鹦鹉——探望——开心——宽慰 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①.某人想到：it occurs to sb that/it strikes sb that ②.推荐：suggest/recommend ③.认为：think/consider 情绪类 ①.亲切地：lovingly/warmly ②.快乐：happiness/pleasure 【点睛】[高分句型1] I left her still nodding and smiling and, cage in hand, fled into the street.

Then each of the local departments must select two winning posters — one from each grade category (grades 1-3 and 4-6) and submit them to the State Fire Marshal's Office by November 15.

B In a quiet corner of Montreal, Canada, 72-year-old Elaine McBride has spent the past decade breathing new life into abandoned books. Her small basement workshop, lined with shelves of torn classics and water-stained novels, is a haven for literature that others regarded beyond repair. “Every book has a story worth preserving,” she says, her fingers brushing the worn cover of a 1940s edition of Pride and Prejudice. McBride’s mission began accidentally. After retiring from her job as a librarian, she came across a pile of damaged books destined for landfill. Horrified by the waste, she taught herself bookbinding and restoration techniques through online tutorials and old craft manuals. “I started with glue and patience,” she laughs. Now, her tools include specialized paperweights, acid-free adhesives, and a vintage press passed down from her grandfather. Over the years, McBride has restored over 2,000 books, donating most to community centers, schools, and prisons. One of her most memorable projects was reviving a fire-damaged copy of The Little Prince for a local children’s hospital. “The child who received it traced the charred (烧焦的) pages and said, ‘Now it’s like me — burned but still loved,’” she recalls. Her work has also inspired a group of teenagers from a nearby high school to join her, learning the art of restoration while listening to her stories of literary history. McBride’s efforts highlight a quiet revolution in a digital age: the belief that physical books hold irreplaceable value. “In a world of screens, these pages are tangible memories,” she says. Though her hands now ache after long hours, she shows no sign of slowing down. “Each book I save is a promise that stories outlive their shelves.” 4. What inspired Elaine McBride to start restoring books? A. A desire to teach others craft skills. B. The sight of books being thrown away. C. Her grandpa’s old bookbinding tools. D. A childhood love for classic literature. 5. Why does the author mention the fire damaged The Little Prince? A. To illustrate McBride’s technical skills. B. To stress the emotional impact of her work. C. To compare different restoration challenges. D. To show the popularity of children’s books. 6. What can be inferred from the words of McBride in paragraph 4? A. Stories need new bookshelves to stay popular. B. Damaged books can hardly carry any stories. C. McBride promises to keep worn books restored. D. Physical books can go beyond the physical form. 7.

C Every day on the sides of streets across Japan, from major urban intersections to sleepy rural pathways, stand young children, ready to rush out into traffic. But Tobita-kun, the name by which the children are commonly known, never actually makes it out onto the road. These “children” are in fact a style of wooden signs that for the last half century has warned the nation’s drivers to watch for children who may unexpectedly rush into traffic. Often handmade by local councils. Tobita-kun has become an icon (图标) on Japan’s roadways and made a big difference in improving road safety in the country. Across Japan, traffic accidents rocketed up through the 1960s, a period known locally as the “Traffic War”. Indeed, as a Japanese government department reported, in 1970 there were 16,765 deadly road accidents recorded nationwide — a rate of 16.33 per 100,000. Out of the chaos, however, emerged a cultural icon. Never officially named, Tobita-kun is recognized by similar names depending on the region, all generally translated as “jumping out boy”. Tobita-kun’s design has been diversified over the decades. Structurally, the signs are commonly made of wood fashioned into the shape of a small, cartoonish child. Ready-made plastic versions are available in stores, although Japan’s local volunteer safety councils continue to make and paint wooden versions by hand. The classic design called “Series 0” was created in June 1973 by a signmaker who, five decades later, together with his son, still produces classic Tobita-kun signs for local parent-teacher associations who request custom designs. Indeed as the classic “Series 0” signs spread throughout Japan in the 1970s, countless regional variations appeared, usually featuring Tobita-kun wearing a locality’s traditional dress. To explain the ongoing popularity of Tobita-kun in this country, Japanese pop culture expert Taylor Atkins says, “In some ways, various versions of Tobita-kun are similar to the municipal mascots (市政吉祥物). Towns and cities now have to promote and distinguish themselves.” 8. What does Tobita-kun serve as? A. A road project. B. A reference guide. C. A safety reminder. D. A direction indicator. 9. Why does the author write paragraph 2? A. To offer background information. B. To introduce a new phenomenon. C. To explain a sign’s cultural shifts. D. To compare traffic improvements. 10. What does the author say about Tobita-kun in paragraph 3? A. It resulted from father-son cooperation. B. It has developed into different varieties. C. It is commonly custom-made by hand. D. It is primarily generated by volunteers. 11. Which might be the trend in Tobita-kun signs? A. Being uniquely styled. B. Being turned into mascots. C. Spreading to other countries. D. Featuring artwork elements. D Today, the widespread ability to use Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL) services in online retail is transforming how consumers pay for purchases. Rather than relying on traditional payment methods, consumers are increasingly using BNPL services to spread payments across interest-free installments (免息分期付款). In new research, we found that BNPL adoption led to immediate and substantial increases in spending. Consumers who adopted BNPL were more likely to purchase, with purchase probability increasing from 17% to 26%. Furthermore, when adopting consumers made purchases, their basket sizes were 10% larger on average than before the introduction of BNPL. Furthermore, the data also reveals a significant aspect of BNPL’s influence on consumer spending patterns. In subsequent tracking studies, it was observed that these increases in spending were not transitory: They lasted for close to six months, showing that BNPL drives lasting gains rather than short-term rises in consumer spending. To understand how BNPL increases spending, we conducted experiments and found that participants who paid in installments felt less financially constrained (财务受限) than those who paid in full. BNPL’s ability to divide payments into smaller amounts gives consumers a sense of better control over their budget. Smaller payments seemed more manageable, even when larger payments were delayed. Additionally, the smaller amounts made consumers feel the cost was less important, encouraging them to add more items to their purchases. At first glance, BNPL may seem like a win-win for both sellers and consumers. However, our findings suggest that sellers are most likely to see increased spending from financially constrained consumers who rely on credit cards. Given that BNPL can encourage overborrowing and lead to financial pressure, it’s important to be careful about who is offered BNPL and how much they can use. Like a tempting dessert, BNPL can seem appealing short-term but carries risks if overused, leading to a financial “sugar crash”. 12. What do we know about BNPL? A. It boosts consumer spending. B. It involves high-interest fees. C. It raises the price of products. D. It sets up a minimum purchase. 13. What does the underlined word “transitory” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Rapid. B. Fixed. C. Temporary. D. Permanent. 14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Ways of using BNPL services. B. BNPL’s influence on consumers. C. Disadvantages of paying in installments. D. A comparison of different payment methods. 15. Why does the author mention “tempting dessert” in the last paragraph? A. To urge people to stop using BNPL. B. To show the wide application of BNPL. C. To state the benefits of BNPL for sellers. D. To warn people to be cautious about BNPL. 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。 Life as a student can be non-stop: homework, exams, and responsibilities often take over, and the things that truly light you up get pushed aside.

I armed myself with a pair of clippers and stepped onto the narrow strip of pavement which separated the door from the road. A pleasant-looking red-haired woman answered my knock. “I’m Mrs Dodds from next door,” she said. “I keep an eye on the old lady. She’s over eighty and lives alone.” She led me into the cramped little room. “Here’s Mr Herriot coming to see Peter for you,” she said to the old woman who sat in a corner. Mrs Tompkin nodded and smiled, “Oh that’s good. Poor little fella can hardly eat with its long beak and I’m worried about him. He’s my only companion, you know.” “Yes, I understand, Mrs Tompkin.” I looked at the cage by the window with the green budgie perched (栖息) inside. “These little birds can be wonderful company when they start chattering.” She laughed, “Yes, but it’s a funny thing. Peter never has said that much. I think he’s lazy! But I just like having him with me.” “Of course you do,” I said, “but he certainly needs attention now.” The beak was greatly overgrown, curving away down till it touched the feathers of the breast. I would be able to revolutionize his life with one quick snip from my clippers. The way I was feeling this job was right up my street. I opened the cage door and slowly inserted my hand. “Come on, Peter,” I wheedled (哄骗). As I lifted him out, I felt in my pocket with the other hand for the clippers. Then I stopped. The tiny head was no longer poking cheekily from my fingers but had fallen loosely to one side. The eyes were closed. He was dead. Mrs Dodds and I looked at each other in horror. When I turned my head towards Mrs Tompkin, I was surprised to see that she was still nodding and smiling. I drew her neighbor to one side. “Mrs Dodds, how much does she see?” “Oh, she’s very short-sighted but she’s right vain despite her age. Never would she wear glasses. She’s hard of hearing, too.” “Well, look,” I said. My heart was still pounding. “I just don’t know what to do. If I tell her about this, the shock will be terrible. Anything could happen.” Mrs Dodds nodded, stricken-faced. “Yes, you’re right. She’s that attached to the little thing.” 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。 I decided to do something for her instead of telling her the truth. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ It was a long time before I went to see how Mrs Tompkin got along with the bird I bought for her. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
