The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while my classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads. Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” — something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his white board, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your ‘impractical’ skill makes you the pick of the bunch,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 24. What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1? A. She had given up the hobby of drawing. B. She was excited about studying medicine. C. She felt torn between art and medical study. D. She regretted not practicing painting earlier. 25. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It convinced her of art’s role in healthcare. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It directed her toward doctor training. 26. What’s Mr. Dawson’s attitude towards Lora’s drawing? A. Critical. B. Appreciative. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent. 27. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. A picture is worth a thousand words. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. 【答案】24. C 25. B 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】23文章讲述了一个名叫Lora的18岁女孩，她热爱艺术但同时对医学产生兴趣。在经历了一系列事件后，她发现可以将自己的艺术技能与医学知识相结合，最终选择了医学插画作为自己的职业方向。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“My fingers trembled as I signed the pre-medicine application form. The watercolor brushes on my desk stared back at me like abandoned friends. (当我签署医学预科申请表时，我的手指颤抖着。桌上的水彩画笔像被遗弃的朋友一样盯着我。)”和“ “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads.(“艺术滋养灵魂，饿死身体，”妈妈总是说。当我的生物课本慢慢地掩埋了我的画本时，她的话一直萦绕在我心头。)”可推知， Lora在艺术和医学学习之间左右为难。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. ‘You made medicine speak,’ the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings.(旁观手术时，我发现了一件事 —— 医生稳健的双手，让我想起了自己作画运笔的姿态。有个小男孩难以形容自己的疼痛感，我便在他的石膏上画了一只喷火的巨龙。护士说：‘你让医学有了具象的表达。’渐渐地，我的画本上画满了细胞，它们美得如同彩色玻璃艺术品；一张张 X 光片也被我勾勒排布，宛若抽象画作。)”可推知，她的医院经历让她相信艺术在医疗保健中的作用。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots.(道森先生是我们的职业辅导老师，他帮我把这一切融会贯通、理清了思路。)”和““Your ‘impractical’ skill makes you the pick of the bunch,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops.( 他指着我那幅如今已用于疼痛管理讲习课堂的龙形画作说道：“你这项被人看作‘不实用’的才艺，反倒让你在众人中脱颖而出。”)”可知，道森先生帮她融合医学与绘画；评价她看似不实用的绘画技能反而让她脱颖而出，还认可她的画作被用于专业讲习班。由此可知，道森先生对Lora的画作是欣赏的。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out — they just multiply possibilities.(我的人生故事并不是理想与现实相互抵消、彼此冲突，而是二者相融，催生出更多人生可能。)”以及全文的描述可知，Lora既热爱艺术又对医学产生兴趣，最终她找到了将两者结合的职业方向——医学插画。这传达了一个信息，即拥有多项技能或兴趣可以为自己开辟更多的可能性。因此，选项D“Two strings to your bow light the way.(两手准备，照亮前路)”是作者要传达的内容。 C Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. However, scientists warn such popular videos may hurt real wildlife protection and spread wrong ideas about nature. A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. Co-author José Guerrero-Casado stresses the danger of false (虚假的) information. For example, videos showing birds killing “bad” snakes might make people less willing to protect snakes, and create false ideas about animals that are already in danger. The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. When children discover that real-world animals do not act as they do in these made-up videos, it can have the opposite result, finally making them feel less connected to nature. This risk grows as young people increasingly turn to social media for information. So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way. To deal with these risks, the research team suggests putting more effort into education, like teaching media literacy (素养) in schools. As another co-author Francisco Sánchez says, the goal is to make sure “children learn early that there are no lions living here.” While they think this is important, the researchers also say that school lessons alone cannot stop the spread of false information made by AI. This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough. 28. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By giving examples. B. By making a comparison. C. By quoting an expert. D. By sharing an experience. 29. What can be inferred about AI-generated animal videos? A. They make children love animals less. B. They mainly focus on species in danger. C. They may make animals seem dangerous. D. They create a false understanding of nature. 30. According to paragraph 4, which is most probably an AI-generated video? A. A parrot with clear feathers. B. A cat with natural shadows. C. A dog with unusual marks. D. A frog with extremely smooth jumps. 31. What will the author most probably discuss next? A. The media literacy lessons. B. The duties of social media. C. The popularity of such videos. D. The threats to wildlife protection. 【答案】28. A 29. D 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出AI生成动物视频的误导性危害，介绍其识别方法，并呼吁学校等社会各界共同应对这一问题。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. (你是否曾在网上看到过某个动物视频，让你不禁驻足思考？比如有视频展示一只狼在照顾一只兔子，或者一只狮子在平静地穿过一个小城镇的画面，如今这类视频正广泛传播开来，这得益于人工智能技术)”可知，作者通过列举这两个具体的视频例子来引出AI生成动物视频这一话题。故选A。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. (《保护生物学》杂志的一项研究指出，AI生成的动物视频创造了一个不真实的世界，导致人们对动物行为产生错误认知，并扩大了人与自然之间的隔阂)”及第三段“The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. (对儿童的影响尤其令人担忧。这些视频会让他们对人与动物的真实相处方式产生错误认识)”可知，这类视频会让人们对自然产生错误的理解。故选D。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way. (那么，如何才能辨别出这些视频呢？专家建议寻找一些迹象：留意一些异常的动物动作，这些动作看起来过于流畅，而在现实生活中是不太可能出现的；还要留意光线和阴影的分布是否不太自然；还有一些细微之处，比如毛发或羽毛的呈现不够清晰，或者呈现出一种不寻常的重复现象)”可知，“极其流畅的跳跃”属于AI生成视频的典型特征。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough. (如果学校教育还不够，这就引出了一个重要问题：社会上还有谁需要帮助解决这个问题)”可知，作者接下来最有可能讨论除了学校之外，其他社会主体（如媒体、政府等）的责任。“The duties of social media. (社交媒体的责任)”属于社会主体责任的范畴。故选B。 D The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious. The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. Individuals from varied backgrounds approach problems differently. It is not merely about electing people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAs or Stanford software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour. In today’s complex world, cooperation is crucial for breakthroughs. In science and engineering, 90% of papers are produced by teams rather than individuals. Since 1975, team-based patents have dominated across all categories in the United States. There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are arrogant. A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managers — maybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone less senior. This freedom to speak without fear of punishment is known as “psychological safety.” Syed cites a Google study identifying it as the most important factor behind effective teamwork. For example, during brainstorming, allowing anonymous idea submission helps reduce the influence of seniority and encourages honest feedback. 32. The first paragraph is intended to ________. A. argue children’s wisdom over adults B. confirm the popularity of Andersen’s fables C. introduce the problem of fear to express truth in groups D. make fun of the foolishness of the emperor and his courtiers 33. What kind of people are “hidebound”? A. Those opposing team activities. B. Those trapped in a fixed mindset. C. Those overly focusing on others’ behavior. D. Those challenging traditional ways of thinking. 34. What does the author suggest a company do as to assembling an effective team? A. Select people from diverse cognitive backgrounds. B. Employ graduates from the same top university. C. Appoint senior managers to pose strict control. D. Hire people in line with the chief executive. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Cognitive Diversity: Daring to Differ B. Junior Managers: Making Better Leaders C. The Emperor’s New Clothes: Lying to Obey D. The Google Study: Unlocking Psychological Safety 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章借《皇帝的新装》引出问题，论述团队需认知多样性与心理安全以应对问题。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious.(《皇帝的新装》是安徒生最广为人知的寓言故事之一。骗子哄骗皇帝，让他相信自己为他们制作了一套极为华美的衣服，而那些不称职的人将无法看到这套衣服。侍从们不敢说皇帝其实一丝不挂，最后是一个孩子指出了这个显而易见的事实。)”以及第二段“The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts?(这个故事传达的寓意是，人们常常深受社会传统的束缚，不敢表达自己的观点。有多少公司在首席执行官青睐成本高昂的项目时，即便其他经理心存疑虑，却仍一意孤行地推进呢？)”可知，第一段通过《皇帝的新装》的故事引出在群体中因恐惧而不敢表达真相的问题。故选C。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views.(这个故事传达的寓意是，人们常常深受社会传统的束缚，不敢表达自己的观点。)”可知，受社会传统束缚的人，即那些陷入固定思维模式的人。故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds.(Matthew Syed在其著作《叛逆思想：多元思维的力量》中指出，解决这一问题的关键在于“认知多样性”，换句话说，就是组建一个由具有不同观点和知识背景的人组成的团队。)”可知，作者建议公司从不同的认知背景中挑选人员来组建有效的团队。故选A。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第三段中“In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds.(Matthew Syed在其著作《叛逆思想：多元思维的力量》中指出，解决这一问题的关键在于“认知多样性”，换句话说，就是组建一个由具有不同观点和知识背景的人组成的团队。)”可知，文章主要围绕组建有效团队需要认知多样性展开，鼓励人们敢于提出不同观点。所以“Cognitive Diversity: Daring to Differ(认知多样性：敢于不同)”可以作为文章标题。故选A。 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。 When we turn 40, we often worry about how to keep our minds sharp — due to aging, heavy workloads, or the challenge of adapting to new technology, such as not learning as fast as before or trying new ways of doing things. This gap between past and present can be upsetting. ____36____ Recovery becomes a key limiting factor on mental performance as we age. Unlike younger people, older adults frequently face recovery bottlenecks. Many ways to stay sharp focus on improving recovery. In sports, people say, “You can only train as hard as you can recover.” ____37____ Young people are limited by motivation or energy, but for older adults, recovery is the issue, like lacking focus when working longer. Prioritize basic recovery methods: quality sleep, balanced nutrition and regular low-intensity exercise to boost energy and ease mental tiredness. ____38____ After leaving school, most of us no longer take formal exams, but setting learning objectives that require evaluation can keep our learning ability sharp. This not only boosts confidence but also pushes us to use new learning tools. It also helps us address issues like discomfort with challenging tasks or difficulty processing large amounts of information at once. A good benchmark is to stay capable of learning undergraduate-level courses on any subject. Maintaining a willingness to try new things promotes mental growth. Research shows that balancing familiar routines with new experiences yields the best results. ____39____ Balance new attempts with familiar things — like visiting your go-to restaurant three Fridays a month and a new one once. These strategies are effective to maintain mental sharpness. ____40____ They also share a common requirement: self-knowledge gained through observation and reflection. By understanding such aspects, such as nutritional gaps or exercise limits, you can thrive mentally regardless of age or life stage. A. This equally applies to mental performance. B. This balance helps us grow with a sense of duty. C. But we can get that sharpness back with three strategies. D. They all essentially require understanding your personal needs. E. Pursuing learning goals with proper assessment is also necessary. F. Formal exams after school are key to maintaining our learning ability. G.

D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章针对40岁后思维敏锐度下降的问题，提出了三种保持思维敏锐的有效策略：提升恢复能力、追求有评估的学习目标、尝试新事物，同时强调这些策略都需要基于自我认知。 【36题详解】 上文“When we turn 40, we often worry about how to keep our minds sharp — due to aging, heavy workloads, or the challenge of adapting to new technology, such as not learning as fast as before or trying new ways of doing things. This gap between past and present can be upsetting. (当我们40岁时，我们常常担心如何保持思维敏捷——由于年龄的增长、工作负担的加重，或者适应新技术的挑战，比如学习速度不如以前快，或者尝试新的做事方式。过去和现在之间的这种差距可能会令人不安)”提到40岁时人们常担心思维不敏捷及这种差距带来的不安，C选项“But we can get that sharpness back with three strategies. (但我们可以通过三种策略重新获得那种敏锐)”承接上文，提出可以通过策略重新获得思维敏锐，引出下文对三种策略的阐述，符合语境。故选C。 【37题详解】 上文“In sports, people say, “You can only train as hard as you can recover.”(在体育界，人们说：“你只能以你能恢复的强度进行训练。”)”提到体育界关于训练和恢复的说法，A选项“This equally applies to mental performance. (这同样适用于精神表现)”承接上文，指出这种说法同样适用于精神表现，即恢复对精神表现也很重要，引出下文关于老年人恢复对精神表现影响的阐述，符合语境。故选A。 【38题详解】 下文“After leaving school, most of us no longer take formal exams, but setting learning objectives that require evaluation can keep our learning ability sharp. (离开学校后，我们大多数人不再参加正式考试，但设定需要评估的学习目标可以保持我们的学习能力敏锐)”提到设定需要评估的学习目标对保持学习能力敏锐的重要性，E选项“Pursuing learning goals with proper assessment is also necessary. (追求有适当评估的学习目标也是必要的)”概括了下文内容，即追求有评估的学习目标很有必要，符合语境。故选E。 【39题详解】 上文“Research shows that balancing familiar routines with new experiences yields the best results. (研究表明，在熟悉的日常活动和新的体验之间取得平衡会产生最好的效果)”提到在熟悉和新的体验间取得平衡效果好，G选项“Engaging in new things does not mean abandoning proven effective methods. (尝试新事物并不意味着放弃被证明有效的方法)”承接上文，进一步说明尝试新事物和保留有效方法之间的关系，即不是要放弃有效方法，引出下文“Balance new attempts with familiar things — like visiting your go-to restaurant three Fridays a month and a new one once. (在新的尝试和熟悉的事物之间取得平衡——比如一个月有三个周五去你常去的餐厅，有一次去新餐厅)”对平衡的具体举例，符合语境。故选G。 【40题详解】 上文“These strategies are effective to maintain mental sharpness. (这些策略对保持思维敏锐是有效的)”提到这些策略有效，D选项“They all essentially require understanding your personal needs. (它们本质上都需要了解你的个人需求)”承接上文，指出这些策略本质上都需要了解个人需求，引出下文“They also share a common requirement: self-knowledge gained through observation and reflection. (它们也有一个共同的要求：通过观察和反思获得的自我认知)”对共同要求的进一步阐述，符合语境。故选D。 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My father was the most horrible cook, unbelievably bad at it.

C 【解析】 【导语】作者以幽默又深情的笔触回忆了父亲厨艺糟糕，但他却自认厨艺精湛，重点描绘了父亲每年强迫作者带走大量苹果的往事。父亲去世后的这个秋天，作者独自处理这些苹果时，才深切体会到那些苹果背后是父亲笨拙却满满的爱，从而领悟到要珍惜父亲在世时的点滴。 【41题详解】 考查名词。句意：他的问题在于缺乏自知之明——他不仅不认为自己差劲，反而觉得自己聪明绝顶。A. self-discipline自律；B. self-knowledge自知之明；C. self-respect自尊；D. self-pity自怜。根据后文“far from being bad, he thought he was ____.”可知，父亲认为自己并不差劲，对自己的厨艺没有正确的认知，即缺乏自知之明。 【42题详解】 考查形容词。句意：他的问题在于缺乏自知之明——他不仅不认为自己差劲，反而觉得自己聪明绝顶。A. responsible负责任的；B. elegant优雅的；C. attractive有吸引力的；D. brilliant出色的。根据前文“far from being bad”和后文“misunderstandings”可知，他对自身厨艺认知错误，自认为厨艺出色。 【43题详解】 考查动词。句意：但在这表象之下，是一连串的误解，其中任何一个都足以让你讨厌在他家吃饭。A. rush冲；B. hate讨厌；C. need需要；D. expect期望。根据前文作者说父亲是“the most horrible cook”以及后文提到他那些奇怪的烹饪理念可知，他的厨艺会让人讨厌去他家吃饭。 【44题详解】 考查动词。句意：他认为任何东西都可以被一个干杏子提升。A. lifted提升，改善；B. ruined毁掉；C. created创造；D. saved拯救。根据前文“He thought everything could be”和后文“I never have to eat that peanut soup again, which had an apricot in it.”可推知，父亲认为杏子能提升菜肴。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：他非常有实验精神，却忽视了基本原理。A. manners礼仪；B. principles原理，原则；C. services服务；D. tools工具。根据上文“He was extremely experimental but ignored basic”可知，烹饪属于一种技能，其基本原理是做好菜的基础，而父亲热衷于实验却忽略了这些。 【46题详解】 考查动词。句意：所以当他今年早些时候去世时，我料想很多东西都会让我想起他，但没有一样东西会是可食用的。A. doubted怀疑；B. worried担心；C. figured料想，认为；D. criticized批评。根据下文“many things”可推知，作者在父亲去世后，对什么会引发思念进行推测，用figured表示“料想，认为”。 【47题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：所以当他今年早些时候去世时，我料想很多东西都会让我想起他，但没有一样东西会是可食用的。A. think of想起；B. come across偶然遇见；C. argue with与……争论；D. call upon号召。根据前文“when he passed away earlier this year”和“many things would make me”可推知，作者说的是触发对父亲回忆的事物，让作者想起父亲。 【48题详解】 考查形容词。句意：唯一与食物相关的念头是：“谢天谢地，我再也不用喝那碗加了杏子的花生汤了。”A. food-related与食物相关的；B. time-honored历史悠久的；C. well-intentioned善意的；D. good-natured性情温和的。根据后文“Thank God. I never have to eat that peanut soup again, which had an apricot in it.”可知，这是关于父亲糟糕厨艺的具体食物记忆，因此是与食物相关的念头。 【49题详解】 考查形容词。句意：它就是一棵普通的树，但它结的苹果足以为一支军队翻山越岭提供能量。A. huge巨大的；B. tough坚韧的；C. regular普通的；D. beautiful美丽的。根据后文“but it produces enough apples to ____ an army”的转折可知，此处强调虽然树普通，但产量惊人。 【50题详解】 考查动词。句意：它就是一棵普通的树，但它结的苹果足以为一支军队翻山越岭提供能量。A. follow跟随；B. power为……提供动力；C. defeat击败；D. establish建立。苹果是食物，根据后文“an army over a mountain”可知，此处表示苹果树结的果实很多，多到能为行军提供能量。 【51题详解】 考查名词。句意：我会说：“不，家里没人爱吃苹果，我自己甚至都不喜欢水果。”他就会接着说：“那只要最上面这37个苹果怎么样？”，我还是会回答：“不行。”A. company公司；B. school学校；C. town城镇；D. family家庭，家人。根据前文“nobody”和后文“I don’t even like”可推知，作者为了拒绝父亲的苹果，说家里没有人喜欢苹果。 【52题详解】 考查名词。句意：我会说：“不，家里没人爱吃苹果，我自己甚至都不喜欢水果。”他就会接着说：“那只要最上面这37个苹果怎么样？”，我还是会回答：“不行。”A. treats款待；B. candy糖果；C. cuisines菜肴；D. fruit水果。根据上文“No, nobody in my ____ likes apples and I don’t even like”以及常识可知，苹果属于水果，作者为了强调自己不喜欢苹果，甚至说自己不喜欢任何水果。 【53题详解】 考查动词。句意：当然，今年秋天，我一直被一种要把苹果全部吃完的执念支配着。A. spared抽出；B. interrupted打断；C. possessed支配；D. rejected拒绝。根据后文“I’ve made a lot of things with apples, and I’ve eaten vast amounts of food that are apple-associated”可知，作者不得不处理大量苹果，所以是作者被一种强烈的想法支配。 【54题详解】 考查名词。句意：随着这个季节接近尾声，“趁父亲还健在，就好好享用他的苹果”这句话我再怎么强调也不为过。A. season季节；B. project项目；C. celebration庆祝；D. festival节日。根据前文“this autumn”以及苹果是秋季产物可知，此处表示这个季节即将结束。 【55题详解】 考查动词。句意：随着这个季节接近尾声，“趁父亲还健在，就好好享用他的苹果”这句话我再怎么强调也不为过。A. care关心；B. respect尊重；C. stress强调；D. laugh笑。根据下文“eat your father’s apples while he’s still alive.

(运用了动名词短语作主语) 第二节（满分25分） 67. 读后续写 I’d always been told to take care of my older brother, Brian, who was born weak and small. I’d often tie his shoes or prepare another glass of water for him. My mom saw my larger size and strong body as a sign that I was to be a kind of guardian angel (守护天使) for Brian. However, that was not the case. One day our school sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest. First prize was $100, and I knew just how I would spend it. There was a brand-new game I was dying to own. So I decided the first place bonus definitely had to land in my pocket. When I had to carve the perfect pumpkin I’d picked out, it dawned on me that with my big clumsy fingers I’d surely screw it up (搞砸). I thought of Brian’s smaller, delicate hands and knew he was the man for the job. I immediately begged Brian. Unexpectedly, he asked for a cut. That was fifty-fifty. Quickly doing the math in my head, I figured out even if I split (分摊) the first prize, I’d still have enough cash for the game. So I gave in to Brian’s demands. With skillful hands Brian carved the perfect face, and now we had the best pumpkin ever. Then the unexpected happened: We came in second. Unfortunately, second prize was only $50, and I needed every penny of that to buy the game. The day of the awards ceremony, the principal handed over the money to me because Brian was home, sick with cold. If he really wanted to win, he would have been here today, I thought to myself, justifying stealing the cash from under poor Brian’s runny nose. With hardly a thought, I ran to the store and bought my dream game. That night when Brian asked if we had won, I denied, afraid to look into his eyes. The whole thing was never mentioned again until the day when Brian was packing for college. I played my usual role in helping him pack when I came across an old album filled with photos he had taken as the school photographer. 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。 Paragraph 1: I was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “You actually knew and didn’t say anything?“ I was shocked. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1: I was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye. It was a picture of the pumpkin we had carved together. Underneath, Brian had written, “My first real win with my brother. Even if we didn’t get first, it was a victory because we worked as a team.” Seeing those words, a wave of guilt washed over me. I remembered how I had selfishly taken all the money and lied to him. I realized how much I had let him down. I turned to Brian, ready to confess everything. Paragraph 2: “You actually knew and didn’t say anything?” I was shocked. Brian just smiled gently and said, “I always knew. But I also knew that you needed that game more than the money at that time. And I was proud of our teamwork, not the prize. I hoped one day you’d understand the real meaning of winning together.” His words made me feel even more ashamed. I apologized sincerely, vowing to make it up to him. From then on, I truly understood my role as his guardian angel and the importance of true brotherhood. 【解析】 【导语】本文以兄弟情谊为线索展开，讲述了作者一直被要求照顾体弱的哥哥布莱恩，在学校南瓜雕刻比赛中，作者因手指笨拙求助布莱恩，两人约定平分奖金，最终获得二等奖仅50美元，作者为买心仪的游戏，独自拿走奖金并向布莱恩撒谎。多年后，布莱恩收拾大学行李时，作者在他的相册里发现当年南瓜的照片，才得知布莱恩早已知道真相，从而领悟到兄弟情谊的真谛的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“作者正欣赏着照片，突然一张照片吸引了他的目光。”可知，第一段可描写作者看到当年两人一起雕刻的南瓜照片，以及布莱恩写下的文字，内心充满愧疚，决定向布莱恩坦白当年的谎言。 ②由第二段首句内容““你竟然早就知道，却什么也没说？”作者震惊不已。”可知，第二段可描写布莱恩温柔解释自己早已知晓真相，在乎的是兄弟间的协作而非奖金，作者真诚道歉，领悟到兄弟情谊的重要性。 2.续写线索：翻看相册——发现照片——内心愧疚——决定坦白——得知真相——真诚道歉——领悟真谛 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①席卷：wash over/sweep over ②坦白：confess/admit ③发誓：vow/promise 情绪类 ①愧疚：guilt/ashamed ②对……感到自豪：be proud of/ take pride in 【点睛】[高分句型1] Seeing those words, a wave of guilt washed over me.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] But I also knew that you needed that game more than the money at that time.（运用了that引导宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。Then I just got a text from mum SHE says, if the traffic isn't bad, sh'll be here from the airport in about an hour.

I’m Lora, an 18-year-old who secretly drew brain diagrams on napkins while my classmates drew cartoons. “Art feeds the soul but starves the body,” Mom always said. Her words haunted me as my biology textbooks slowly buried my drawing pads. Then came the school career fair that changed everything. Dr. Eleanor Whitman from Harvard asked us to list our “hidden skills”. My hand shook as I wrote “observing details” — something I’d learned from painting flower petals. “That’s medical research’s most needed skill!” she exclaimed, sharing how a student turned microbiology notes into textbook illustrations. My lab partner whispered, “Remember our photosynthesis (光合作用) comic?” For the first time, my two worlds didn’t feel so separate. The real surprise came during hospital volunteering. Watching surgeries, I noticed something — the steady hands of doctors reminded me of my brush work. When a boy struggled to describe his pain, I drew a fire-breathing dragon on his cast. “You made medicine speak,” the nurse said. Slowly, my drawing pads filled with cells that looked like colored-glass art and X-rays arranged like abstract paintings. Mr. Dawson, our career counselor, helped connect these dots. On his white board, my medical knowledge and art skills overlapped in a bright yellow circle labeled “Medical illustration”. He showed me job listings I never knew existed — graphic designers for science apps, 3D modelers for anatomy (解剖) classes. “Your ‘impractical’ skill makes you the pick of the bunch,” he said, pointing to my dragon drawing now used in pain management workshops. Today, my microscope and paintbrushes share the same desk. The same hands that once hesitated between them now create 3D models of viruses for vaccine education. Sometimes I teach young patients to draw their feelings instead of describing them. My story isn’t about heart and reality canceling each other out — they just multiply possibilities. 24. What can be inferred about Lora from paragraph 1? A. She had given up the hobby of drawing. B. She was excited about studying medicine. C. She felt torn between art and medical study. D. She regretted not practicing painting earlier. 25. How did Lora’s hospital experience influence her? A. It helped develop her surgical skills. B. It convinced her of art’s role in healthcare. C. It boosted her enthusiasm for abstract art. D. It directed her toward doctor training. 26. What’s Mr. Dawson’s attitude towards Lora’s drawing? A. Critical. B. Appreciative. C. Cautious. D. Indifferent. 27. What message does the author want to convey? A. Follow the beaten track to success. B. A picture is worth a thousand words. C. Don’t put all your eggs in one basket. D. Two strings to your bow light the way. C Have you ever seen an animal video online that made you stop and wonder? Videos showing a wolf taking care of a rabbit, or a lion walking calmly through a small town are now spreading widely. This is possible because of AI technology. However, scientists warn such popular videos may hurt real wildlife protection and spread wrong ideas about nature. A study in Conservation Biology points out that AI-generated animal videos create an untrue world, leading to wrong ideas about animal behavior and widening the gap between people and nature. Co-author José Guerrero-Casado stresses the danger of false (虚假的) information. For example, videos showing birds killing “bad” snakes might make people less willing to protect snakes, and create false ideas about animals that are already in danger. The effect on children is especially worrying. These videos can give them wrong ideas about how people and animals really get along. When children discover that real-world animals do not act as they do in these made-up videos, it can have the opposite result, finally making them feel less connected to nature. This risk grows as young people increasingly turn to social media for information. So, how can one recognize these videos? Experts suggest looking for a few signs: unnatural animal movements that appear too smooth or seem impossible in real life; light and shadows that do not look quite right; and small details like fur or feathers that appear unclear or repeat in an unusual way. To deal with these risks, the research team suggests putting more effort into education, like teaching media literacy (素养) in schools. As another co-author Francisco Sánchez says, the goal is to make sure “children learn early that there are no lions living here.” While they think this is important, the researchers also say that school lessons alone cannot stop the spread of false information made by AI. This leads to an important question about who else in society needs to help solve this problem, if school education is not enough. 28. How does the author present the issue in the first paragraph? A. By giving examples. B. By making a comparison. C. By quoting an expert. D. By sharing an experience. 29. What can be inferred about AI-generated animal videos? A. They make children love animals less. B. They mainly focus on species in danger. C. They may make animals seem dangerous. D. They create a false understanding of nature. 30. According to paragraph 4, which is most probably an AI-generated video? A. A parrot with clear feathers. B. A cat with natural shadows. C. A dog with unusual marks. D. A frog with extremely smooth jumps. 31. What will the author most probably discuss next? A. The media literacy lessons. B. The duties of social media. C. The popularity of such videos. D. The threats to wildlife protection. D The story of The Emperor’s New Clothes is one of Andersen’s best-known fables. Conmen (骗子) fool the emperor into believing they have made him a fabulous suit that the unworthy will be unable to see. Courtiers (侍从) dare not say that the emperor is naked; it takes a child to point out the obvious. The moral is that people are often too hidebound by social tradition to state their views. How many companies have pursued costly projects favoured by the chief executive, even when other managers have had doubts? In his book Rebel Ideas: The Power of Diverse Thinking, Matthew Syed argues that the key to dealing with this problem is “cognitive diversity”, in other words, assembling a team of people with different perspectives and intellectual backgrounds. Individuals from varied backgrounds approach problems differently. It is not merely about electing people for teams from both sexes and various ethnicities. Hire only Cambridge politics graduates or Harvard MBAs or Stanford software engineers and they will have studied under the same professors and absorbed similar world views regardless of their gender or skin colour. In today’s complex world, cooperation is crucial for breakthroughs. In science and engineering, 90% of papers are produced by teams rather than individuals. Since 1975, team-based patents have dominated across all categories in the United States. There is another element to selecting a good team: ensuring that those viewpoints are heard and respected. That may not happen if those in charge are arrogant. A study of over 300 projects by the Rotterdam School of Management found that those led by junior managers were more likely to succeed than those led by senior managers — maybe because other team members were less scared about pointing out potential dangers to someone less senior. This freedom to speak without fear of punishment is known as “psychological safety.” Syed cites a Google study identifying it as the most important factor behind effective teamwork. For example, during brainstorming, allowing anonymous idea submission helps reduce the influence of seniority and encourages honest feedback. 32. The first paragraph is intended to ________. A. argue children’s wisdom over adults B. confirm the popularity of Andersen’s fables C. introduce the problem of fear to express truth in groups D. make fun of the foolishness of the emperor and his courtiers 33. What kind of people are “hidebound”? A. Those opposing team activities. B. Those trapped in a fixed mindset. C. Those overly focusing on others’ behavior. D. Those challenging traditional ways of thinking. 34. What does the author suggest a company do as to assembling an effective team? A. Select people from diverse cognitive backgrounds. B. Employ graduates from the same top university. C. Appoint senior managers to pose strict control. D. Hire people in line with the chief executive. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the passage? A. Cognitive Diversity: Daring to Differ B. Junior Managers: Making Better Leaders C. The Emperor’s New Clothes: Lying to Obey D. The Google Study: Unlocking Psychological Safety 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。 When we turn 40, we often worry about how to keep our minds sharp — due to aging, heavy workloads, or the challenge of adapting to new technology, such as not learning as fast as before or trying new ways of doing things. This gap between past and present can be upsetting. ____36____ Recovery becomes a key limiting factor on mental performance as we age. Unlike younger people, older adults frequently face recovery bottlenecks. Many ways to stay sharp focus on improving recovery. In sports, people say, “You can only train as hard as you can recover.” ____37____ Young people are limited by motivation or energy, but for older adults, recovery is the issue, like lacking focus when working longer. Prioritize basic recovery methods: quality sleep, balanced nutrition and regular low-intensity exercise to boost energy and ease mental tiredness. ____38____ After leaving school, most of us no longer take formal exams, but setting learning objectives that require evaluation can keep our learning ability sharp. This not only boosts confidence but also pushes us to use new learning tools. It also helps us address issues like discomfort with challenging tasks or difficulty processing large amounts of information at once. A good benchmark is to stay capable of learning undergraduate-level courses on any subject. Maintaining a willingness to try new things promotes mental growth. Research shows that balancing familiar routines with new experiences yields the best results. ____39____ Balance new attempts with familiar things — like visiting your go-to restaurant three Fridays a month and a new one once. These strategies are effective to maintain mental sharpness. ____40____ They also share a common requirement: self-knowledge gained through observation and reflection. By understanding such aspects, such as nutritional gaps or exercise limits, you can thrive mentally regardless of age or life stage. A. This equally applies to mental performance. B. This balance helps us grow with a sense of duty. C. But we can get that sharpness back with three strategies. D. They all essentially require understanding your personal needs. E. Pursuing learning goals with proper assessment is also necessary. F. Formal exams after school are key to maintaining our learning ability. G. Engaging in new things does not mean abandoning proven effective methods. 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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 My father was the most horrible cook, unbelievably bad at it.

For three months of every year, I could never go and see him without him saying, “Please take some apples,” and handing me a huge basket. I would say, “No, nobody in my ____51____ likes apples and I don’t even like ____52____.” He’d go, “How about just these 37 apples at the top?” And I’d go, “No.” Of course, this autumn, I’ve been ____53____ by the need to finish them all. I’ve made a lot of things with apples, and I’ve eaten vast amounts of food that are apple-associated.

I’d often tie his shoes or prepare another glass of water for him. My mom saw my larger size and strong body as a sign that I was to be a kind of guardian angel (守护天使) for Brian. However, that was not the case. One day our school sponsored a pumpkin-carving contest. First prize was $100, and I knew just how I would spend it. There was a brand-new game I was dying to own. So I decided the first place bonus definitely had to land in my pocket. When I had to carve the perfect pumpkin I’d picked out, it dawned on me that with my big clumsy fingers I’d surely screw it up (搞砸). I thought of Brian’s smaller, delicate hands and knew he was the man for the job. I immediately begged Brian. Unexpectedly, he asked for a cut. That was fifty-fifty. Quickly doing the math in my head, I figured out even if I split (分摊) the first prize, I’d still have enough cash for the game. So I gave in to Brian’s demands. With skillful hands Brian carved the perfect face, and now we had the best pumpkin ever. Then the unexpected happened: We came in second. Unfortunately, second prize was only $50, and I needed every penny of that to buy the game. The day of the awards ceremony, the principal handed over the money to me because Brian was home, sick with cold. If he really wanted to win, he would have been here today, I thought to myself, justifying stealing the cash from under poor Brian’s runny nose. With hardly a thought, I ran to the store and bought my dream game. That night when Brian asked if we had won, I denied, afraid to look into his eyes. The whole thing was never mentioned again until the day when Brian was packing for college. I played my usual role in helping him pack when I came across an old album filled with photos he had taken as the school photographer. 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。 Paragraph 1: I was enjoying the photos when one caught my eye. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: “You actually knew and didn’t say anything?“ I was shocked. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
