They are revolutionizing how goods can be delivered and received. People can pick up a package from a locker at a time that suits them, in a convenient location near their residence or workplace. Yet for all their advantages, parcel lockers are still far from being widely adopted by online shoppers. Many consumers still opt to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don’t know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it. Even though locker usage is still low, companies and government agencies hope more shoppers will try it as they learn about the benefits. Using parcel lockers can help reduce traffic from delivery vehicles and lower our carbon footprint, which is better for the Earth. So, why not give easyLocker a try? 21. What keeps some shoppers from trying a parcel locker? A. Inconvenient locations. B. Environmental concerns. C. Inefficiency of delivery. D. Unawareness of its presence. 22. What must users of easyLockers do? A. Collect their parcels within 24 hours. B. Key in a unique access code to get parcels. C. Leave the locker door open for the next user. D. Inform the deliveryman of their home address. 23. Who are the targeted readers of the text? A. Locker producers. B. Delivery personnel. C. Online purchasers. D. Potential investors. B “Have I stirred this well enough?” a student asked as the white powder slowly dissolved into water. Turning raw ingredients into a lotion (乳液) and a lip balm (润唇膏) was a brand-new experience for the 45 high school students in Cincinnati, US. They were taking part in the Magic of Cosmetic Chemistry workshop hosted by the University of Cincinnati. “It was very exciting to organize the workshop for high schoolers,” said Harshita Kumari, an associate professor at the university, who created the workshop in 2015. She hopes to help students explore nontraditional scientific careers at an early age, the university’s website reported. K. P. Ananth, director of the university’s cosmetic science program, introduced the students to cosmetic science and the process of developing the shampoos and makeup products that we use every day. “Cosmetic products come in many forms, shapes, sizes and so on, but they don’t just happen,” Ananth told the students. “There’s a lot of chemistry that goes into it.” After the introduction, students began to make their lotions and lip balms in a lab to get a real hands-on experience of the process. As they stirred, measured and combined ingredients, Kumari explained the basis of an emulsion (乳剂). By combining two phases, oil and water, cosmetic chemists create emulsions that will later become products. Finally, the students toured P&G facilities to see how the industry works on a bigger scale. They visited pilot plant facilities for creams, deodorants (除臭剂) and over-the-counter (非处方的) drugs, as well as microscopy (显微镜观察) and analytical labs where they interacted with P&G scientists and learned about manufacturing and quality assurance. 24. What was the brand-new experience for the 45 high school students? A. Hosting a chemistry workshop. B. Dissolving white powder into water. C. Visiting P&G’s manufacturing facilities. D. Making lotion and lip balm from raw materials. 25. What did K. P. Ananth want to convey to the students? A. Everyone can make their own cosmetics. B. Developing cosmetics is a simple process. C. Making cosmetics requires chemical knowledge. D. Cosmetic development relies on advanced equipment. 26. What did the students do during the lab session? A. They learned about the basis of emulsions. B. They developed new cosmetic products. C. They taught each other how to combine ingredients. D. They designed experiments for cosmetic making. 27. What can we infer from the last paragraph? A. P&G invited the students to tour its facilities for free. B. The students learned about large-scale cosmetic production. C. P&G’s labs focus on the research of non-prescription drugs. D. The students became P&G’s part-time scientists after the tour. C Have you ever noticed how some people seem to handle difficulties calmly while others let small problems ruin their entire day? This difference often comes down to how we respond to challenges. American social psychologist Leon Festinger proposed a famous theory later known as “Festinger’s Law”, which states that 10 percent of life’s events are beyond your control, but 90 percent are within your control. To explain this, let’s examine two events. First, imagine a business professional who has an important presentation. On the way to work, they spill coffee on his shirt. If he reacts with depression, rushes angrily, and arrives hurriedly, his presentation may suffer from failure to concentrate. Now, consider an alternative response: he calmly cleans up, changes clothes, and uses the extra time to review his notes. The initial problem is the same, but the outcomes differ dramatically because of his reactions. The influences of Festinger’s Law extend beyond individual situations to interpersonal relationships as well. In family conflicts, for instance, an unpleasant response to a minor disagreement can increase tensions, while a patient, understanding approach often leads to resolution. Similarly, in team projects, how members respond to setbacks — whether with blame or constructive problem-solving — can determine the group’s ultimate success. What makes this principle particularly valuable is its universal applicability. Whether dealing with academic pressures, workplace challenges, or personal relationships, the common point is that our reactions often matter more than the problems themselves. By cultivating self-awareness and emotional control, we can significantly improve our ability to settle life’s unavoidable difficulties. Developing this skill requires practice. It involves pausing before reacting, assessing situations objectively, and consciously choosing productive responses. Over time, this approach becomes habitual, leading to better outcomes and reduced stress. Festinger’s Law ultimately teaches us while we can’t control everything that happens to us, we can always control how we respond — and that makes all the difference. 28. Why does the author ask a question at the beginning? A. To rate readers’ psychology knowledge. B. To create readers’ connection to the topic. C. To present a common social phenomenon. D. To look forward to responses from readers. 29. What is the main lesson from the coffee spill example? A. Opportunity favors the prepared mind. B. Plans should be made for potential problems. C. Ignoring minor issues can lead to bigger ones. D. Positive reactions weigh over the problem itself. 30. What is the significant value of Festinger’s Law? A. It helps people better address life’s challenges. B. It encourages us to focus on the things we can’t control. C. It provides useful guidance for different tough situations. D. It suggests most problems are less serious than they seem. 31. What is the main idea of the last paragraph? A. The benefits of reducing stress. B. The impact of immediate reactions. C. The desire to control personal feelings. D. The methods to practice Festinger’s Law. D Few things delight children, or irritate their parents, as much as screen time. Parents nag their children to put down their digital devices and pick up a book or a football. Some countries are banning social media for under-16s. The worry may be focused on the wrong age group. Now a new generation of grandparents are adding to their screen time with smartphones, iPads and game consoles. The result is epic screen sessions, which take up more than half of their waking hours. The digitization of old age is a good thing. Facebook and WhatsApp bring daily updates from old friends and faraway grandchildren. Zoom transports church, book clubs and doctors’ appointments into the home. Older people are also insulated (使隔离) from some of the on-screen risks that threaten teenagers. They have already formed their key real-life relationships, and so are less in danger of the “social stunting” that screen-obsessed children supposedly suffer. Yet as retirement moves online there will be costs that society must address. Older folks’ devices are usually connected to credit cards. Door-to-door cheat can now go iPad-to-iPad. Older people also appear to be more likely susceptible to online scam which artificial intelligence promises to make still more convincing. As older generations shift from spending their time in front of Fox or the BBC to spending it on YouTube or TikTok, they are entering a Wild West of information. Screen time has a mixed impact on loneliness. Screens are companions for the isolated. But they can also be an alternative for real life. E-commerce removes the trouble of the weekly shopping trip — but also the social interactions that come with it. Balancing the pros and cons of screen use is easier for teenagers, whose time online is limited by teachers during the day and parents in the evening. Older folk lack these informal mediators (调停者). Old people’s rocketing screen time should at least make for a more measured debate on digital matters. Generations do not always understand each other well. There is a long history of policymakers calling for bans on teenagers, from rock ‘n’ roll to violent video games. When the teenagers catches on more widely, the panic tends to die down. Universal use of smart-phones and social media should make it easier to have sensible conversations about their trade-offs. And when children are told for the hundredth time to get off their phones, they can cast a meaningful glance at grandpa in the corner, chuckling at the latest memes on WhatsApp. 32. By mentioning the two generations’ screen time, the author intends to ______. A. highlight an issue B. evaluate an event B. clarify a goal D. illustrate an approach 33. What does the underlined phrase “susceptible to” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Tolerant to. B. Awakened by. C. Tricked by. D. Relevant to. 34. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Each generation tends to self-limit their own screen time strictly. B. Society has promoted seniors’ digital benefits to prevent panic. C. Digital policy should primarily target seniors’ online safety risks. D. The digital engagement across ages calls for balanced discussions. 35. Which would be the best title for this passage? A. Square-eyed Elders B. All-thumbs Seniors B. Self-taught Silver SurfersD. Leisure-seeking Grandparents 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。 Creative expression, particularly through learning and making music, greatly improves well-being and meaning in later life, promoting mental, emotional, and even physical health as people age. For older adults, activities like attending a songwriting workshop or joining a chorus go beyond mere leisure. They become a pathway to what Aristotle called “eudaemonia”, a life well-lived. 36 Music offers a unique way for such meaningfulness, which often grows from deep connection. Whether it is the dedication to mastering an instrument, the excitement of creating music on the spot, or the sweetness of listening to a familiar tune, older adults do not engage in music as lonely individuals. 37 Such meaningful involvement can even turn musical tools — a piano, a violin, or a digital device — into extensions of the person. 38 This reflects the saying, “You are what you do.” Some famous musicians travel with their own instruments, which proves how deeply music can shape personal identity. 39 As dancer Twyla Tharp remarked, “Art is the only way to run away without leaving home.” The emotional uplift indirectly supports health by boosting memory, lowering stress, and strengthening social ties — all crucial for aging well. Deep engagement in music adds meaning to later life, bringing happiness through creativity and commitment. 40 Actually, music enriches lives at every age, so promoting creative expression through it should be a central aim in education and enrichment for everyone. A. It’s mostly the result of external entertainment. B. Becoming a “musician” is thus a worthy goal for older adults. C. They bond with others, culture, and their own growing sense of self. D. The more often one plays an instrument, the greater joy one may gain. E. Creative musical experience also provides an escape from daily routines. F. With skill and regular practice, the instrument becomes part of who one is. G. This is not brief pleasure, but lasting happiness that comes from living meaningfully. 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。 As the sweet smell of pears and apples spreads in the air, drawing a stream of visitors to the orchard (果园) in Karamay’s Baijiantan district, an elderly man is seen doing the rounds of it on an electric bike.

The Student Affairs Office logo in the corner made his stomach sink. He opened it slowly. Health and Safety Warning. Fine (罚款): $300. Three hundred dollars — his entire summer earnings, meant for books and a winter coat. Now gone, all because of a messy room! Andy was a quiet international student who kept his side of the dorm perfectly organized. For him, neatness brought calm and control. His roommate, Eric, was the opposite: he lived in what could only be described as a happy mess. Clothes piled on his chair, empty snack bags collected on the floor, and the shared waste bin always overflowed. But Eric was kind — he’d shown Andy around campus, helped with his homework, and lifted his spirits when he was homesick. Andy was grateful. He never complained. He didn’t want to start a fight. So, he’d sigh and quietly take out the garbage, thinking it was a small price for such a good friend. But he’d been home for two weeks — and returned to this. Now, holding the letter, he felt it was a big mistake. “I’ve been cleaning up his mess, and I get fined too?” he thought in frustration. This wasn’t fair. His usual “avoid trouble” plan had failed. Just then, the door flew open. “Andy! You won’t believe the game today …” Eric’s energetic entry stopped short. “Whoa. You look pale as a sheet. What’s wrong?” Without a word, Andy held out the warning letter. Eric took it, his smile fading as he read. “Oh, no. A fine? Three hundred? I’m … I’m really sorry.” He looked from the letter to the pile of pizza boxes in the corner, which he’d meant to throw out for days, then to Andy’s spotless desk. Real guilt washed over his face. “I’ve been completely careless about this. I’m sorry Andy …” 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。 “It’s okay,” Andy said quietly, “but let’s clean it together now.” ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ They both knew that a single cleaning was not enough — they needed rules. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
