B When my son was little, he liked to run in our driveway until he fell. He would then turn to me to see if he was hurt. If my face betrayed worry or concern, he would cry. If I stayed calm, he would brush himself off and get back to running. Here was this human being who was counting on me to make sense of the world — not just how to tie his shoes or recite the ABCs, but how to feel. Years later, in middle school, this lesson returned. One night, my son told me about a classmate who had been unkind to him. My first reaction was to rush to fix it — email the parents, call the school, demand action. But instead of reacting, I paused. “That sounds hard. What did you do?” “I decided not to hang out with him for a while,” my son replied. “I am going to try playing soccer at lunch instead.” “That’s a great solution,” I said, and he went back to his homework. These ordinary parenting moments taught me an important truth: sometimes, the best thing a parent can do is doing nothing at all. Over 30 years in schools, too often I’ve watched parents overreacting, robbing their kids of the confidence that comes from struggling, and exhausting themselves in the process. Most Americans now believe that young people will not be better off than their parents. They see greater competition for fewer resources — be it college admissions, jobs, or housing. However, a young person who gets used to having a parent intervene on his behalf begins to believe that he’s not capable of acting on his own, feeling both anxiety and dependence. I want to make a case for the Lighthouse Parent, a term that the educator has used. A lighthouse parent stands as a steady, reliable guide, providing safety and understanding without controlling every aspect of their child’s journey, like a lighthouse that helps sailors avoid crashing into rocks. The key is learning when to step back and enable them to find their own way. 24. What does the author want to tell with the example of his child falling? A. Children should be prevented from taking risks. B. Parents can feel exactly what their children feel. C. Parents’ reaction influences children’s mental state. D. Children would cry regardless of parental guidance. 25. What does the underlined word “intervene” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Step in. B. Move on. C. Speak up. D. Take off. 26. What kind of parent is the author? A. Distant. B. Traditional. C. Supportive. D. Overprotective. 27. What would Lighthouse Parents do when children are anxious about a school presentation? A. Complete the task for the child. B. Contact and criticize the teacher. C. Ask the child to report every step. D. Guide the child while letting them act. C It might not have been the first to have a touchscreen, but it was Tesla’s Model S, with its small cabin built around a huge full-color display, that set the trend. For years almost every new car sold has a high-tech, futuristic screen, which controls everything from the air-conditioning to the music. But are touchscreens safe? The argument against them is simple. If using a smartphone while driving is dangerous, the same logic applies to a car’s screen. Physical buttons allow for eyes-off operation, but a touchscreen offers no physical feedback. And because a screen must do dozens of jobs, finding a particular setting often means tapping through several sub-menus. The result, say critics, is that drivers’ attention is divided. Research backs that up. A 2022 test by Vi Bilagare, a Swedish magazine, timed drivers performing tasks like changing radio stations while driving at 110 km/h. It set 11 touchscreen cars against an older model with buttons. In the old car, drivers were able to do all tasks within about 10 seconds, during which time the car travelled around 300 metres. In the worst-performing modern car, the same tasks took 45 seconds, during which the car travelled 1.4 km. Even in the best-performing models, testers still took several seconds longer than in the old car. Another 2020 analysis by Britain’s Transport Research Laboratory found touchscreens damaged reaction time more than driving over the legal alcohol limit. Safety organizations begin to notice. From January, new rules from Euro NCAP, an organization that provides safety ratings for cars in Europe, will mean no car can get a full-five-star score unless certain crucial functions are controlled by real switches. Therefore, carmakers, such as Volkswagen and Porsche, have begun restoring at least some buttons to their new models. But innovation never stops. Even as touchscreens are falling out of favour, many carmakers are turning their attention to voice control — though that is a subject for another story. 28. Why does the author mention Tesla’s Model S? A. To introduce a topic. B. To show its market success. C. To compare it with older cars. D. To emphasize its technical lead. 29. Why do touchscreens divide drivers’ attention according to paragraph 2? A. Their response is slow. B. Their operation is laborious. C. Their feedback is rather confusing. D. Their settings are poorly organized. 30. What is the purpose of testing cars with buttons in the 2022 study? A. To show their simple functions. B. To praise their safety technology. C. To offer a performance reference. D. To recommend the old-style models. 31. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text? A. Car Control: Touch or Voice B. Touchscreens: A Risky Trend C. Car Buttons Make a Comeback D. New Rules Ensure Driving Safety D Rural folk can blame Aesop, an ancient Greek storyteller, for stories that laugh at them for being bumpkins (乡巴佬). His tale of the Country Mouse and the Town Mouse was only the first to emphasize their supposed simpler tastes and habits when compared with complex urbanites. So listen for the cheers from Somerset to Kansas as scientists announce it is city living that can dull the wits — at least when it comes to finding one’s way. Growing up in a city, a global survey has found, has a lifelong negative impact on a person’s ability to navigate (导航). When looking for a half-remembered restaurant in a poorly-lit street, it seems Country Mouse would be a more useful companion. The new study led by Hugo Spiers at University College London describes how they used a data set from 4 million players of a computer game called “Sea Hero Quest” to test way-finding skills. It asked players to memorize a map showing the location of checkpoints and measured how well players can ride a boat to find them, guided only by their mental map. About 442,000 players from 38 countries were examined. He found that the strongest indicator of a high score was a player’s age: older people performed relatively poorly, which arises from the decline of cognitive ability as people age. But the benefit of rural living was strong enough to reduce some of that. Data from American players showed that a 70-year-old who grew up in the countryside had the navigational abilities of a 60-year-old from the city across the dataset. Meanwhile, the gap between the navigation skills of rural and city people was largest in America (about six times wider than for Romania). “Our study doesn’t show why cities have this impact on people growing up in them. It cannot rule out that an external factor such as the effect of air pollution on a developing brain, might play a role.” says Dr. Spiers, adding that the brain’s navigational abilities probably weaken in the less challenging city environment because they are not being used as much. 32. What does the phrase “dull the wits” in paragraph 1 mean? A. Cause confusion. B. Sharpen the mind. C. Improve intelligence D. Weaken mental abilities. 33. How did Dr. Spiers’s team conduct the research? A. They compared national geographic data. B. They analyzed data from a computer game. C. They observed subjects (participants/ players)’ real-life behavior. D. They investigated people’s navigation experience. 34. What can be inferred from paragraph 3? A. Age decides one’s navigation skills. B. Urban living’s effect differ by country. C. Rural upbringing reduces aging’s effect. D. Urban living speeds up cognitive decline. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Brain weakens in cities? B. City living more challenging? C. Navigating in cities necessary? D. City living weakens navigation skills? 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。 Many people find it hard to finish what they start. Picture a student learning a difficult piece of music, practicing hard each day. After a few weeks, progress slows, practice becomes less frequent, and eventually, the music is set aside and forgotten. 36 This pattern repeats in many parts of life: half-done projects, broken resolutions, and goals that lose their excitement before they are reached. 37 Early excitement often comes from the fun and newness of a fresh start. This is where many efforts fail. As routine takes over and things get harder, that early energy can disappear, making us easily distracted or discouraged. Underestimating the effort makes it worse. Not finishing affects more than just the task itself. It can quietly change how we see ourselves. 38 For example, someone who often starts and stops a fitness plan may begin to think they lack self-control, which can make them question whether they can stick with other things, from schoolwork to personal projects. Stopping and restarting carries a significant mental cost. In fact, research has consistently shown that sticking with a task is the cornerstone of building solid skills and lasting habits. Quitting doesn’t just hit pause on our progress. 39 Becoming someone who finishes strong is therefore a skill that can be learned. A good approach is to break big goals into smaller, clear steps. This helps us see progress and makes the goal feel less scary. 40 Over time, following through consistently builds a reputation for being reliable. Teachers, friends, and future coworkers will notice this quality, leading to more trust and opportunities. A. Obstacles are necessary steps. B. It also makes trying again far harder. C. It becomes a symbol of unfinished efforts. D. This builds inner strength against quitting. E. This cycle gradually weakens our self-trust. F. Each quit adds to the mental difficulty of trying again. G. To understand why we stop, we must look at how motivation changes. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（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。 When I was 16, I developed a great passion for photography. My uncle, a professional photographer, gave me an old film camera as a birthday gift. I was so 41 that I couldn’t wait to take it out and 42 it. However, the first roll of film I shot was a total 43 — most photos were either overexposed or blurry. I felt really 44 and even considered 45 the camera away. My uncle noticed my low spirits and asked what was wrong. I told him about my 46 and showed him the bad photos. Instead of criticizing me, he 47 me to study the basics of light and composition. He said, “Photography is not just about pressing the shutter; it’s about learning to 48 with your eyes first.” He lent me some photography books and 49 me to take photos of ordinary things around me — a cat napping in the sun, a leaf 50 in the wind, a mother hugging her child. I followed his advice. Every day after school, I would take my camera and 51 the streets, looking for little moments worth capturing. I learned to wait for the right light, to adjust the angle 52 , and to pay attention to the details that others might ignore. Slowly, my photos got better and better. Some of them were even   53 in the school’s art exhibition. That experience taught me a valuable lesson: mastery of any skill takes time and 54 . There is no shortcut to success. You have to practice patiently, learn from your mistakes, and never 55 your passion. Now, photography is not just a hobby for me; it’s a way to see the beauty in the world and record the precious moments of life. 41. A. anxious B. excited C. nervous D. curious 42.

It works by detecting electrical signals generated by brain cells, 57 (convert) them into commands that computers or machines can understand. What makes BCI truly groundbreaking is 58 it enables people with disabilities to regain control of their lives. For example, patients who are paralyzed can use BCIs 59 (operate) wheelchairs, type on screens or even play musical instruments, simply by thinking about these actions. The key to this process lies in the   60 (precise) of the technology, as even tiny errors in signal interpretation will lead to incorrect movements. Most BCIs today rely on invasive devices 61 (place) directly into the brain tissue, 62 method that ensures high signal quality but carries risks of infection. However, researchers recently developed non-invasive BCIs 63 use wearable sensors positioned on the scalp. These devices are safer and more convenient, though they are less accurate than their invasive counterparts. 64 is predicted that in the near future BCIs will move 65 medical applications. They may allow healthy people to control smart home devices with their minds or enhance cognitive abilities such as memory and focus. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（15分） 66．假设你是学生李华，上周五你校邀请专家来校做了一场有关防震知识讲座，请你给学校英语报写一篇新闻报道，内容包括以下要点： 1．讲座内容；2．讲座意义； 注意：1．词数80词左右；2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 A Report on How to Survive in an Earthquake ____________________________________________________________________________________________ 第二节（25分） 67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使其构成一篇完整的短文。 When handball was first introduced to schools, I wanted to bring it to my school in a remote village. This became a challenging task as the sports teacher was unwilling to do anything other than traditional sports. I was not a sports teacher. However, I was determined to start this game. Handball is a fascinating game which combines strength, skill and teamwork. As a new sport, I foresaw it as a golden opportunity as our school had never secured a place in traditional sports. The boys were immediately interested. I had the support of their parents but I still couldn’t convince the sports teacher. Ultimately, I used my position as principal to get the game going. An old boy who graduated some nine years earlier, volunteered to coach the team. Although handball is an indoor game, we trained outdoors due to the limited equipment. “This handball craze will ruin your studies!” complained some of the teachers to discourage the game. Whenever the boys were late for class after practice they were punished, but I was able to keep them cheerful. After three months of hard training we were able to send a team to compete with 50 other schools in the country’s largest city. Initially, the School Handball Association rejected us because we weren’t association (协会) members, but thankfully some members believed any school should be welcomed. Our boys played remarkably well and reached the semifinals. And that was when the real game started. Students and teachers from urban schools joined forces against us, and considered it a shame to lose a match against boys from a rural village school who couldn’t even speak English. They wore leaves to insult our boys. Even the judges favoured them, resulting in our team’s loss of the victory. Defeated, the boys fell to the ground, sad and disappointed. However, other students were supportive, saying “Don’t cry, brothers. You’re the champions. You must come again next year and claim your victory.” 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Back at school, the memory of the unfair treatment was so clear in our minds. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ The following year, nobody could stop us from winning the championship. ___________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
