Over the summer, my daughter, Cora, then 9, attended her first sleepaway camp. It had been her longest time away from home. “How much longer?” she asked with increasing frequency during our return trip to Stanford.
Just past Crystal Springs Lake, Highway 280 peaks and then bends left, going down through golden grasses. I asked her to look out of the window. “Do you recognize where we are?” She stared out, then let out a cry of longing. By the time we turned onto Campus Drive, it had become a repeated shout: “Home! Home!”
Cora has lived as a resident fellow kid in dorms since she was one. She’s connected to the land and its inhabitants: the coast live oak trees she climbed and the annual summer ants into every campus kitchen. She’s tied to its people — notably, college students. She has joined their Halloween costume competitions and eaten dining hall chicken beside them since she could hold one up.
I, on the other hand, have a hard time answering the question of where I am “from”. By the time I was Cora’s age, I’d lived in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, and North Carolina. Any friendships built to last did so by letter. In adulthood I added four more states. Where can I lay claim to? I’ve now lived at Stanford a collective 13 years and built a family here.
In that moment Cora cried out, I was filled with a realization. Cora is from here. Up to that day, I’d thought of Stanford as a thing I was sharing with my children, but I realized it is something they are sharing with me. And this place grounds us, my daughter and me, and it connects us to each other.
4. What does the daughter’s repeated question “How much longer?” show?
A. She is physically exhausted. B. She is unsure of the route.
C. She is eager to return home. D. She is uneasy about leaving.
5. Why does the author describe Cora’s childhood life?
A. To show how unusual her childhood is. B. To explain why Cora enjoys outdoors.
C. To contrast what life her mother had lived. D. To illustrate how deeply Cora belongs.
6. What difficulty does the author note about her own background?
A. She has lived in too many places to feel rooted. B. She has lost contact with her childhood friends.
C. She regrets moving frequently during adulthood. D. She feels disconnected from her family history.
7. What realization does the author reach at the end?
A. Her children feel more at home than she does. B. Her family has become deeply rooted in Stanford.
C. Stanford gives them a shared sense of belonging. D. Long-term residence creates a sense of ownership.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了女儿参加夏令营后在回家途中急切盼望到家的表现,回忆了女儿从小在斯坦福校园生活的经历,并对比了自己频繁搬家、没有固定归属感的成长经历,最终意识到斯坦福让母女二人拥有了共同的归属感。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段““How much longer?” she asked with increasing frequency during our return trip to Stanford.(“还要多久?”在我们返回斯坦福的途中,她问得越来越频繁。)”以及第二段“By the time we turned onto Campus Drive, it had become a repeated shout: “Home! Home!”(当我们拐进校园大道时,这已经变成了重复的呼喊:“家!家!”)”可知,女儿不断问“还有多久”是因为急切想要回家。故选C。
【5题详解】

She’s connected to the land and its inhabitants: the coast live oak trees she climbed and the annual summer ants into every campus kitchen. She’s tied to its people — notably, college students.(科拉从一岁起就作为住宿研究员的孩子住在宿舍里。她与这片土地及其居民紧密相连:她爬过的海岸橡树,以及每年夏天涌入校园每个厨房的蚂蚁。她与这里的人息息相关——尤其是大学生。)”可知,作者描述女儿的童年生活是为了说明女儿对斯坦福这片土地有深厚的归属感。故选D。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“By the time I was Cora’s age, I’d lived in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, and North Carolina. Any friendships built to last did so by letter. In adulthood I added four more states. Where can I lay claim to?(在我和科拉差不多大的时候,我已经住过俄亥俄州、印第安纳州、密苏里州和北卡罗来纳州。任何想要长久维系的友谊都是通过书信实现的。成年后,我又多住了四个州。我能声称自己来自哪里呢?)”可知,作者一生在太多地方居住过,以至于找不到自己的根,没有固定的归属感。故选A。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“I’d thought of Stanford as a thing I was sharing with my children, but I realized it is something they are sharing with me. And this place grounds us, my daughter and me, and it connects us to each other.(我曾以为斯坦福是我和孩子们分享的东西,但我意识到,它是孩子们和我分享的东西。这个地方让我和女儿有了根基,也把我们彼此联系在一起。)”可知,作者意识到斯坦福给了她们一家人共同的归属感。故选C。

Kristin Hannah’s The Women is a searing, deeply compassionate novel that centers on Frances “Frankie” McGrath, a sheltered 20-year-old nursing student who joins the Army Nurse Corps during the Vietnam War. Published in 2024, it has quickly become one of the most acclaimed historical fictions of recent years, praised for its determined honesty and vivid storytelling.
Raised in a conservative, idyllic Southern California home, Frankie initially knows little of sacrifice or suffering. But when her brother deploys to Vietnam, she enlists, driven by the belief that “women can be heroes”. What follows is a raw, immersive journey into the chaos of war: endless shifts in overcrowded field hospitals, limited supplies, and the constant threat of violence. Hannah writes with plain realism, capturing both the physical horror of combat medicine and the profound emotional toll on the nurses who served.
The novel’s power lies not only in its war scenes but in Frankie’s painful homecoming. Like countless real female veterans (退伍老兵), she returns to a divided America that refuses to honor her service — facing indifference, skepticism, and even hostility from a society that insists “there were no women in Vietnam”. Her struggle with PTSD and alienation from her family and old life is a stark reminder of the long, invisible scars of war.
What makes The Women unforgettable is its tribute to the unsung heroines of the Vietnam War. These women were not just caregivers; they were resilient, brave, and essential. Hannah’s prose is warm yet straightforward, drawing readers into Frankie’s transformation from a naive girl to a battle-hardened healer. More than a war story, it is a testament to courage and the quiet strength of women who served — and were too often forgotten.
8. What does the author think of Hannah’s novel?
A. Boring and critical. B. Objective and humorous. C. Moving and straight. D. Serious and puzzling.
9. What motivates Frankie to join the Army Nurse Corps?
A. Her desire to become a war hero.
B. Her brother’s service in the Vietnam War.
C. Her belief in women’s ability to be heroes.
D. Her family’s expectation for her to serve.
10. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Americans acknowledge the sacrifice of the women in the war.
B. The war leaves Frankie with long-lasting invisible wounds.
C. Frankie’s family supports her through difficulties.
D. The novel ignores the veterans’ post-war life.
11. What does the author mean by saying “More than a war story” in the last paragraph?
A. The book focuses on the female veterans’ inner qualities.
B. The book shows the women’s unseen leadership.
C. The book lacks vivid description of the war.
D. The book records the military strategies.
【答案】8. C 9. C 10. B 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了克里斯汀·汉娜的小说《女性》,小说通过主人公Frankie在越南战争期间担任护士的经历,展现了战争的残酷、女性退伍军人归国后遭受的忽视与心理创伤,并颂扬了她们的勇气和坚韧精神。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Kristin Hannah’s The Women is a searing, deeply compassionate novel (克里斯汀·汉娜所著的《女性》是一部炽热的、充满深切同情的长篇小说)”和“Published in 2024, it has quickly become one of the most acclaimed historical fictions of recent years, praised for its determined honesty and vivid storytelling. (该作品于2024年出版,迅速成为了近年来最受赞誉的历史小说之一,因其坚定的诚实态度和生动的叙事风格而备受称赞。)”可知,作者所用的“炽热的、充满深切同情的”和“生动的叙事风格”暗示这部小说感人的特质,“坚定的诚实态度”则对应直率。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But when her brother deploys to Vietnam, she enlists, driven by the belief that “women can be heroes”. (但当她的哥哥被派往越南服役时,她也报名参军了,她坚信“女性也能成为英雄”。)”可知,Frankie加入陆军护士队的动机是她相信女性有能力成为英雄。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Like countless real female veterans (退伍老兵), she returns to a divided America that refuses to honor her service — facing indifference, skepticism, and even hostility from a society that insists “there were no women in Vietnam”. Her struggle with PTSD and alienation from her family and old life is a stark reminder of the long, invisible scars of war. (就像无数真正的女性退伍军人一样,她回到了一个分裂的美国,这个国家拒绝认可她的付出——她面临着冷漠、质疑甚至敌意,因为这个社会坚称“越南战争中没有女性的身影”。她与创伤后应激障碍的抗争以及与家人和过往生活的疏离,鲜明地揭示了战争留下的漫长而隐秘的伤痕。)”可知,这里重点描述Frankie归国后遭受的忽视、心理创伤和疏离感,表明战争给她留下了长期的无形创伤。故选B项。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据全文最后一句“More than a war story, it is a testament to courage and the quiet strength of women who served — and were too often forgotten. (这不仅仅是一个战争故事,它更是一份对那些曾投身战争、展现勇气以及展现出默默力量的女性的颂歌——她们中的许多人却常常被遗忘。)”可知,作者说“不仅仅是一个战争故事”,是强调这本书超越了单纯描写战争事件,聚焦于女性退伍军人的内在品质。故选A项。
D
In an era characterized by burnout and doomscrolling, original artworks offer remarkable therapeutic (治疗的) benefits. A study at London’s Courtauld Gallery shows that volunteers viewing Van Gogh’s, Édouard Manet’s and Paul Gauguin’s originals had significantly lower stress and inflammation levels than those seeing reproductions. The experiment by King’s College London further confirmed this: participants exposed to 19th-century post-impressionist masterpieces in galleries experienced reduced stress, lower heart disease risk and a boosted immune system, compared with those viewing copies in a lab.
Cambridge psychologists found that appreciating artistic beauty at Kettle’s Yard Gallery, a Cambridge art museum, frees people from daily mental trappings. Besides, a study by the UK Department for Culture, Media and Sport quantified art’s positive effects on physical and mental health, and showed that it brought an annual £ 1,000 per person economic gain from higher productivity and fewer general practitioner visits. Nature noted the role of original art in preventing chronic diseases. And for the first time in its 202-year history, The Lancet featured art’s life-enhancing effects in a photo essay, turning art from a leisure choice into a valuable tool for public health.
Art historian Katy Hessel emphasizes that taking time to immerse oneself in art deeply is vital to its therapeutic effect. Galleries’ quiet atmosphere stops mindless scrolling and fosters contemplation, bringing “psychological distancing” and a broader perspective — great art liberates people to appreciate things beyond themselves. In an age when creativity is increasingly outsourced to AI, original art connects people with human genius, letting them feel the emotions behind artists’ brushstrokes and understand human suffering, which no digital image or AI work can fully copy.
Art’s health value raises a question: will doctors soon recommend gallery visits? Amid falling visitors and funding shortages, these studies call for more investment in culture. While the UK government’s £ 270 million funding for cultural infrastructure is welcome, greater efforts are needed to ensure universal access to this “cultural workout”. Science has proven art is vital not only to a nation’s economy but to its public health.
12. Why are the two studies mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To recommend famous art galleries to visitors.
B. To highlight the artistic appeal of masterpieces.
C. To prove the healing effects of original artworks.
D. To expose the negative consequences of reproductions.
13. How does the author support the health benefits of original art in paragraph 2?
A. By stating opinions.
B. By quoting studies.
C. By explaining concepts.
D. By analyzing reasons.
14. What does Katy Hessel stress in paragraph 3?
A. The importance of gallery atmosphere.
B. The beauty of post-impressionist works.
C. The immersive experience of authentic art.
D. The unique role of generative AI in creation.
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Original Art: A Key to Public Health.
B. Art Copies: A Choice for Daily Leisure.
C. Artificial Art: A Source of Economic Value.
D. Art Appreciation: A Door into Inner Delight.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要论述了原创艺术作品具有显著的治疗益处,能够降低人们的压力和炎症水平、减少患心脏病风险、增强免疫系统等,对个人身心健康和公共健康都有重要价值,呼吁加大对文化领域的投资。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“A study at London’s Courtauld Gallery shows that volunteers viewing Van Gogh’s, Édouard Manet’s and Paul Gauguin’s originals had significantly lower stress and inflammation levels than those seeing reproductions. The experiment by King’s College London further confirmed this: participants exposed to 19th-century post-impressionist masterpieces in galleries experienced reduced stress, lower heart disease risk and a boosted immune system, compared with those viewing copies in a lab. (伦敦考陶尔德美术馆的一项研究表明,观看梵高、爱德华·马奈和保罗·高更原作的志愿者的压力和炎症水平明显低于观看复制品的志愿者。伦敦国王学院的实验进一步证实了这一点:与在实验室观看复制品的参与者相比,在美术馆接触19世纪后印象派杰作的参与者压力减轻,患心脏病的风险降低,免疫系统增强。)”可知,这里通过两项研究,将观看原创艺术作品和观看复制品的志愿者的不同情况进行对比,突出了原创艺术作品能降低压力和炎症水平、减少患心脏病风险、增强免疫系统等作用,也就是证明了原创艺术作品的治疗效果。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。在第二段中,作者提到“Cambridge psychologists found that (剑桥心理学家发现)”“a study by the UK Department for Culture, Media and Sport quantified art’s positive effects (英国文化、媒体和体育部的一项研究量化了艺术对身心健康的积极影响)”“Nature noted the role of original art in preventing chronic diseases. (《自然》杂志指出原创艺术在预防慢性疾病方面的作用。)”“And for the first time in its 202-year history, The Lancet featured art’s life-enhancing effects in a photo essay (《柳叶刀》在其202年的历史中首次以图片文章的形式展示了艺术对生活的增益作用)”,可以看出作者通过引用多个不同机构的研究成果来支持原创艺术对健康有益这一观点。故选B项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Art historian Katy Hessel emphasizes that taking time to immerse oneself in art deeply is vital to its therapeutic effect. Galleries’ quiet atmosphere stops mindless scrolling and fosters contemplation, bringing ‘psychological distancing’ and a broader perspective — great art liberates people to appreciate things beyond themselves. (艺术史学家凯蒂·赫塞尔强调,花时间深入沉浸在艺术中对其治疗效果至关重要。画廊安静的氛围阻止了无意识的滚动浏览,促进了沉思,带来了“心理距离”和更广阔的视角——伟大的艺术使人们能够欣赏到超越自我的东西。)”可知,凯蒂·赫塞尔强调的是深入沉浸在艺术中的体验对艺术治疗效果的重要性。故选C项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。文章开篇指出在疲惫和“厄运滚动”的时代,原创艺术作品有显著的治疗益处,接着通过多项研究具体阐述了原创艺术作品对个人身心健康的好处,如降低压力、减少患心脏病风险、增强免疫系统等,还提到艺术对公共健康的重要性,最后呼吁加大对文化领域的投资以确保人们能普遍享受到这种“文化锻炼”。A选项“原创艺术:公共健康的关键”,能够概括文章主旨,强调原创艺术对公共健康的重要性,适合作标题。故选A项。

【答案】36. has become
37. to promote
38. to 39. but
40. Updates
41. observer
42. how 43. a
44. sustainable
45. weighing
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了虚拟博物馆如今不再只是无法出行者的备选,其凭借自身独特的文化价值而存在。
【36题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:在过去的十年里,数字化已经成为重新定义博物馆体验的驱动力。根据时间状语Over the past decade可知,此处强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响,应用现在完成时,其结构为“have/has +过去分词”,主语digitalization是单数,所以用has become。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:借助人工智能驱动的工具,博物馆正在采用一系列技术来提高可及性和游客参与度。此处应用动词不定式作目的状语,表示采用一系列技术的目的是提高可及性和游客参与度,所以用to promote。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意:人们不再只是盯着静态图像,而是可以与物品互动,探索现实生活中公众无法进入的房间。be accessible to为固定短语,意为“可被……进入;对……来说可使用的”,所以填to。
【39题详解】
考查连词。句意:其价值不在于复制实体博物馆,而在于提供实体世界所不能提供的东西。not...but...为固定搭配,意为“不是……而是……”,所以填but
【40题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:展览可以上线。更新不需要花费数月时间。此处作主语,应用名词,根据助动词do可知,主语应用复数形式Updates,意为“更新的内容”,句首单词首字母大写。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:观众成为体验的一部分,而不是一个沉默的观察者。根据空前的a可知,此处应用名词单数observer,意为“观察者”,作表语。
【42题详解】
考查宾语从句。句意:它们共同改变了人们了解历史的方式。此处为连接词引导的宾语从句,作change的宾语,从句中缺少方式状语,表示“人们了解历史的方式”,所以用连接副词how引导。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:展望未来,通过拥抱数字化转型和文化守护,博物馆有一个独特的机会变得比以往任何时候都更具包容性、吸引力和可持续性。此处表示泛指“一个独特的机会”,unique是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【44题详解】
考查形容词。句意:展望未来,通过拥抱数字化转型和文化守护,博物馆有一个独特的机会变得比以往任何时候都更具包容性、吸引力和可持续性。此处与inclusive、engaging并列,作become的表语,应用形容词sustainable,意为“可持续的”。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:随着创新在博物馆体验中逐渐占据重要地位,可能性是无限的——博物馆发展的新篇章才刚刚开始。分析句子结构可知,此处为“with +宾语+宾补”结构,innovation与weigh之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词weighing作宾补,weigh heavily in表示“在……中具有重要影响”。
第四部分:词汇和语法运用(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)
(注意:运用和选择性必修一Unit 4—6以及选择性必修二Unit1-2所学和《小王子》第十九章至二十四章的内容,根据汉语提示或所给单词的适当形式写在答题卡上)

【答案】innovative
【解析】
【详解】句意:为了解决这些棘手的问题,我们需要更多创新思维而非传统方式。形容词innovative表示“创新的”,在句中作定语修饰thinking。
47. Mr. Green stood up in defence of the 16-year-old boy, saying that he was not the one ________ (应该被责备). (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】to blame
【解析】
【详解】句意:格林先生站起来为这个16岁的男孩辩护,说他不是那个该受责备的人。解析:句子中文释义为格林先生起身维护这个16岁男孩,称他不是该受指责的人。be to blame是固定搭配,意为“该受责备”,用to blame作后置定语修饰the one。
48. Deeply _________(植根于) in our culture, the festival carries profound meanings and is cherished by all. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】rooted
【解析】
【详解】句意:深深植根于我们的文化之中,这个节日承载着深远的意义,被所有人珍视。be rooted in“植根于”是固定搭配,此处用过去分词rooted作状语。
49. The primary goal of all environmental campaigns is _______ (滋养) nature. (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】to nurture
【解析】
【详解】句意:所有环保运动的首要目标都是滋养自然。根据汉语提示可知用动词nurture,此处为不定式作表语,说明主语的内容。
50. The _________ (进化) of human beings is a long-term process full of challenges and changes, which has shaped what we are today. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】evolution
【解析】
【详解】句意:人类的进化是一个充满挑战和变化的长期过程,它塑造了今天的我们。根据空前定冠词The和汉语提示“进化”可知,空处应填名词evolution,此处为不可数名词,作句子主语。
51. We’d better _________ aside(搁置) our differences and work together for a common goal. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】lay##put##set
【解析】
【详解】句意:我们最好摒弃分歧,携手为共同的目标而努力。lay/put/set aside是固定短语,表示“搁置”,had better do sth.“最好做某事”,better后接动词原形。
52. The instant she entered the office, she _________ (占用;忙于) herself in doing routine office tasks. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】occupied
【解析】
【详解】句意:她一走进办公室,就立刻全神贯注地投入到日常的办公事务中去了。根据汉语提示可知用动词occupy,结合上文entered可知为一般过去时。
53. “It is an act too often _________(忽略), ”said the fox. It means to establish ties. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】neglected
【解析】
【详解】句意:“这是一种常常被忽视的行为。”狐狸说。它意味着建立联系。neglect意为“忽略”,act与neglect是被动关系,所以用过去分词neglected作后置定语修饰act。
54. “Who are you?” he demanded, ________ (如雷击般震惊). (根据汉语提示完成句子)
【答案】thunderstruck
【解析】
【详解】句意:“你是谁?”他质问道,如雷击般震惊。根据汉语提示可知,设空处应用形容词thunderstruck作伴随状语,表示“极度震惊的;如雷击般的”,在句中描述主语he说话时伴随的状态。
55. I felt the need of protecting him, as if he himself were a flame that might be _________ (熄灭) by a little puff of wind. (根据汉语提示单词拼写)
【答案】extinguished
【解析】
【详解】句意:我觉得有必要保护他,仿佛他自己就是一团火焰,一阵微风就可能将其熄灭。extinguish表示“熄灭”,flame与extinguish是被动关系,“might be + 过去分词”构成被动语态,所以用extinguished。

第二节:读后续写(满分25分)
57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Two days before her school’s Christmas program, my nine-year-old daughter Charlotte proudly announced, “I’m singing solo (独唱) ‘Silent Night’”. That puzzled me. Charlotte loved to sing. She sang in the shower and the car and just about everywhere else, despite her struggles with high pitch (高音). Now she could carry a tune a bit better than last year, but I didn’t think she’d improved enough yet to sing a solo. Reminding myself that all things are indeed possible in primary school, I chose not to question her confidence.
I soon learned that my two other daughters in 11th grade, Monica and Corina, were also performing in their school’s auditorium, about twenty minutes’ drive from where Charlotte would sing. They were skilled singers and piano players. This time, they were giving a piano performance that night, an hour later than their youngest sister. The three girls practiced everyday at home, filling our room with singing, piano music and laughter. Sometimes the two teenagers would give Charlotte some tips on improving her pitch, and could even accompany her singing “Silent Night” on the piano in a very short time. Knowing them well-prepared, I looked forward to the Christmas programs this year.
The big day finally came, and I came to school to watch Charlotte’s performance with delight. However, things went wrong. Shortly after dropping her backstage, she found me in the hall, eyes filled with tears. Her teacher explained there had been a misunderstanding — Charlotte was not picked to sing a solo. Heartbroken, she begged to leave. Though filled with disappointment myself, I comforted her as we drove to the other two girls’ school.
要求
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。
Paragraph 1: As we arrived, Monica and Corina immediately noticed something was wrong.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: I sat and waited, until the host called my three girls to perform.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】As we arrived, Monica and Corina immediately noticed something was wrong. Concern radiating from their eyes, they rushed over and, in a tender voice, asked what had happened. Figuring out the misunderstanding, they exchanged a knowing glance, with Monica gently wiping away Charlotte’s tears and proposing,“Why not join us on stage and sing Silent Night while we play the piano?”Charlotte’s eyes widening with disbelief and exhilaration, hardly could she believe what she had heard and whispered,“Really?”With a firm nod, they quickly discussed a brief plan and then headed backstage to adjust their performance. I watched them go, my heart full of warmth and admiration for my elder daughters’ thoughtfulness.
I sat with the audience and waited, until the host announced my girls’ names. As the spotlight shone on the stage, Monica and Corina walked out, followed by a hesitant but excited Charlotte. Monica began playing a soft, improvised piano introduction to “Silent Night,” while Corina placed a comforting arm around Charlotte’s shoulders.Taking a deep breath, Charlotte started to sing. Her initial notes were fragile, but like those bathroom rehearsals where her sisters’ tips had gently guided her, her voice strengthened as they joined in with warm harmonies. Their voices blending seamlessly. When the last note faded, applause thundered through the hall. At that moment, I realized that this was not just a performance — it was the purest gift of sisterly love, making this Christmas truly unforgettable.

Over the summer, my daughter, Cora, then 9, attended her first sleepaway camp. It had been her longest time away from home. “How much longer?” she asked with increasing frequency during our return trip to Stanford.
Just past Crystal Springs Lake, Highway 280 peaks and then bends left, going down through golden grasses. I asked her to look out of the window. “Do you recognize where we are?” She stared out, then let out a cry of longing. By the time we turned onto Campus Drive, it had become a repeated shout: “Home! Home!”
Cora has lived as a resident fellow kid in dorms since she was one. She’s connected to the land and its inhabitants: the coast live oak trees she climbed and the annual summer ants into every campus kitchen. She’s tied to its people — notably, college students. She has joined their Halloween costume competitions and eaten dining hall chicken beside them since she could hold one up.
I, on the other hand, have a hard time answering the question of where I am “from”. By the time I was Cora’s age, I’d lived in Ohio, Indiana, Missouri, and North Carolina. Any friendships built to last did so by letter. In adulthood I added four more states. Where can I lay claim to? I’ve now lived at Stanford a collective 13 years and built a family here.
In that moment Cora cried out, I was filled with a realization. Cora is from here. Up to that day, I’d thought of Stanford as a thing I was sharing with my children, but I realized it is something they are sharing with me. And this place grounds us, my daughter and me, and it connects us to each other.
4. What does the daughter’s repeated question “How much longer?” show?
A. She is physically exhausted. B. She is unsure of the route.
C. She is eager to return home. D. She is uneasy about leaving.
5. Why does the author describe Cora’s childhood life?
A. To show how unusual her childhood is. B. To explain why Cora enjoys outdoors.
C. To contrast what life her mother had lived. D. To illustrate how deeply Cora belongs.
6. What difficulty does the author note about her own background?
A. She has lived in too many places to feel rooted. B. She has lost contact with her childhood friends.
C. She regrets moving frequently during adulthood. D. She feels disconnected from her family history.
7. What realization does the author reach at the end?
A. Her children feel more at home than she does. B. Her family has become deeply rooted in Stanford.
C. Stanford gives them a shared sense of belonging. D. Long-term residence creates a sense of ownership.

Kristin Hannah’s The Women is a searing, deeply compassionate novel that centers on Frances “Frankie” McGrath, a sheltered 20-year-old nursing student who joins the Army Nurse Corps during the Vietnam War. Published in 2024, it has quickly become one of the most acclaimed historical fictions of recent years, praised for its determined honesty and vivid storytelling.
Raised in a conservative, idyllic Southern California home, Frankie initially knows little of sacrifice or suffering. But when her brother deploys to Vietnam, she enlists, driven by the belief that “women can be heroes”. What follows is a raw, immersive journey into the chaos of war: endless shifts in overcrowded field hospitals, limited supplies, and the constant threat of violence. Hannah writes with plain realism, capturing both the physical horror of combat medicine and the profound emotional toll on the nurses who served.
The novel’s power lies not only in its war scenes but in Frankie’s painful homecoming. Like countless real female veterans (退伍老兵), she returns to a divided America that refuses to honor her service — facing indifference, skepticism, and even hostility from a society that insists “there were no women in Vietnam”. Her struggle with PTSD and alienation from her family and old life is a stark reminder of the long, invisible scars of war.
What makes The Women unforgettable is its tribute to the unsung heroines of the Vietnam War. These women were not just caregivers; they were resilient, brave, and essential. Hannah’s prose is warm yet straightforward, drawing readers into Frankie’s transformation from a naive girl to a battle-hardened healer. More than a war story, it is a testament to courage and the quiet strength of women who served — and were too often forgotten.
8. What does the author think of Hannah’s novel?
A. Boring and critical. B. Objective and humorous. C. Moving and straight. D. Serious and puzzling.
9. What motivates Frankie to join the Army Nurse Corps?
A. Her desire to become a war hero.
B. Her brother’s service in the Vietnam War.
C. Her belief in women’s ability to be heroes.
D. Her family’s expectation for her to serve.
10. What can we learn from paragraph 3?
A. Americans acknowledge the sacrifice of the women in the war.
B. The war leaves Frankie with long-lasting invisible wounds.
C. Frankie’s family supports her through difficulties.
D. The novel ignores the veterans’ post-war life.
11. What does the author mean by saying “More than a war story” in the last paragraph?
A. The book focuses on the female veterans’ inner qualities.
B. The book shows the women’s unseen leadership.
C. The book lacks vivid description of the war.
D. The book records the military strategies.
D
In an era characterized by burnout and doomscrolling, original artworks offer remarkable therapeutic (治疗的) benefits. A study at London’s Courtauld Gallery shows that volunteers viewing Van Gogh’s, Édouard Manet’s and Paul Gauguin’s originals had significantly lower stress and inflammation levels than those seeing reproductions. The experiment by King’s College London further confirmed this: participants exposed to 19th-century post-impressionist masterpieces in galleries experienced reduced stress, lower heart disease risk and a boosted immune system, compared with those viewing copies in a lab.
Cambridge psychologists found that appreciating artistic beauty at Kettle’s Yard Gallery, a Cambridge art museum, frees people from daily mental trappings. Besides, a study by the UK Department for Culture, Media and Sport quantified art’s positive effects on physical and mental health, and showed that it brought an annual £ 1,000 per person economic gain from higher productivity and fewer general practitioner visits. Nature noted the role of original art in preventing chronic diseases. And for the first time in its 202-year history, The Lancet featured art’s life-enhancing effects in a photo essay, turning art from a leisure choice into a valuable tool for public health.
Art historian Katy Hessel emphasizes that taking time to immerse oneself in art deeply is vital to its therapeutic effect. Galleries’ quiet atmosphere stops mindless scrolling and fosters contemplation, bringing “psychological distancing” and a broader perspective — great art liberates people to appreciate things beyond themselves. In an age when creativity is increasingly outsourced to AI, original art connects people with human genius, letting them feel the emotions behind artists’ brushstrokes and understand human suffering, which no digital image or AI work can fully copy.
Art’s health value raises a question: will doctors soon recommend gallery visits? Amid falling visitors and funding shortages, these studies call for more investment in culture. While the UK government’s £ 270 million funding for cultural infrastructure is welcome, greater efforts are needed to ensure universal access to this “cultural workout”. Science has proven art is vital not only to a nation’s economy but to its public health.
12. Why are the two studies mentioned in paragraph 1?
A. To recommend famous art galleries to visitors.
B. To highlight the artistic appeal of masterpieces.
C. To prove the healing effects of original artworks.
D. To expose the negative consequences of reproductions.
13. How does the author support the health benefits of original art in paragraph 2?
A. By stating opinions.
B. By quoting studies.
C. By explaining concepts.
D. By analyzing reasons.
14. What does Katy Hessel stress in paragraph 3?
A. The importance of gallery atmosphere.
B. The beauty of post-impressionist works.
C. The immersive experience of authentic art.
D. The unique role of generative AI in creation.
15. What would be the best title for the text?
A. Original Art: A Key to Public Health.
B. Art Copies: A Choice for Daily Leisure.
C. Artificial Art: A Source of Economic Value.
D. Art Appreciation: A Door into Inner Delight.

57. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Two days before her school’s Christmas program, my nine-year-old daughter Charlotte proudly announced, “I’m singing solo (独唱) ‘Silent Night’”. That puzzled me. Charlotte loved to sing. She sang in the shower and the car and just about everywhere else, despite her struggles with high pitch (高音). Now she could carry a tune a bit better than last year, but I didn’t think she’d improved enough yet to sing a solo. Reminding myself that all things are indeed possible in primary school, I chose not to question her confidence.
I soon learned that my two other daughters in 11th grade, Monica and Corina, were also performing in their school’s auditorium, about twenty minutes’ drive from where Charlotte would sing. They were skilled singers and piano players. This time, they were giving a piano performance that night, an hour later than their youngest sister. The three girls practiced everyday at home, filling our room with singing, piano music and laughter. Sometimes the two teenagers would give Charlotte some tips on improving her pitch, and could even accompany her singing “Silent Night” on the piano in a very short time. Knowing them well-prepared, I looked forward to the Christmas programs this year.
The big day finally came, and I came to school to watch Charlotte’s performance with delight. However, things went wrong. Shortly after dropping her backstage, she found me in the hall, eyes filled with tears. Her teacher explained there had been a misunderstanding — Charlotte was not picked to sing a solo. Heartbroken, she begged to leave. Though filled with disappointment myself, I comforted her as we drove to the other two girls’ school.
要求
1.续写词数应为 150 左右;
