The 22 year-old design school graduate had dreamed of working for a famous fashion brand in the city. “Bamboo weaving is outdated,” she had told her grandmother before her passing. “No one buys those old-fashioned baskets and mats anymore.” Returning for the funeral, Elise found herself drawn to the quiet workshop where dust covered the neatly stacked bamboo strips. As she ran her fingers over the smooth bamboo, childhood memories flooded back — sitting on her grandmother’s lap, watching skilled hands weave delicate patterns, listening to stories of how this craft had sustained their family through generations. That evening, she discovered an old journal hidden in the loom’s drawer. The pages revealed her grandmother’s surprisingly innovative vision — sketches of bamboo products with modern designs: handbags, lampshades, and even bamboo-inspired jewelry. Next to each design were thoughtful notes about appealing to younger generations while preserving the craft’s essence, and how bamboo’s eco-friendly nature could make it relevant again. Determined to honor this legacy, Elise embarked on the challenging journey of revitalizing the workshop. She spent months mastering basic techniques, enduring blistered fingers and frustration. She experimented with combining bamboo with leather straps, colorful fabrics, and metal clasps, sharing these innovative designs on social media. Despite early struggles with few orders and criticism from traditional villagers, Elise persisted. Her breakthrough came when she began attending design fairs in nearby cities, where her unique products attracted attention from boutique owners and environmental advocates. The turning point arrived when a renowned fashion designer contacted her for a collaboration featuring sustainable materials. Soon, orders poured in from young consumers who appreciated the blend of tradition and modernity, and eco-conscious buyers who valued the zero-waste production. A year later, Elise’s transformed workshop not only thrived commercially but also became a community hub where she taught local women bamboo weaving, providing them with sustainable livelihoods. Holding her grandmother’s journal, she realized tradition means letting it grow with the times. 24．Why did Elise initially refuse to take over her grandma’s bamboo-weaving workshop? A．She wanted to stay in the city. B．She hated the boring work of bamboo weaving. C．She thought the craft was out of fashion and unprofitable. D．She didn’t have the necessary skills to run the workshop. 25．What did Elise discover in her grandma’s journal? A．Records of the family’s hard times in the past. B．Instructions on how to weave traditional bamboo baskets. C．Complaints about young people’s ignorance of traditional crafts. D．Drawings of innovative bamboo products and forward-thinking ideas. 26．Which words can best describe Elise? A．Helpful and cautious. B．Traditional and honest. C．Creative and persistent. D．Curious and dependent. 27．What can we learn from the passage? A．Elise’s ideas came from a famous fashion brand. B．Elise’s success helped preserve the traditional craft. C．Elise’s grandma had never left the small rural town. D．Elise’s bamboo products became popular because of low price. C A video spread on social media earlier this year. It showed a tourist opening a car door, putting out an arm, and trying to touch lions that walked by. The lions pushed him away, but the situation could have become very dangerous easily. Thoughtless behaviour around wildlife risks the safety of both people and animals. People risk being attacked, mauled (撕咬) and possibly killed, while animals can be harmed, removed or put down, no matter whether they were only defending themselves. Animal attacks can also cast a destination in a negative light, causing temporary closures or scaring off visitors. All just so someone could boast that they had touched lions or captured a moment on a camera phone. “Tourists are getting more and more careless around wildlife and the source of the problem is social media.” says wildlife photographer Anette Mosshachers. “People risking their lives or doing stupid things with wildlife are after ’likes’ and followers, something to show off on social media,” says Mossbacher. “The greater the risk, the more ‘likes’ they get. With some clients, it seems like a sickness or addiction.” Yet social media is not entirely to blame. People have always taken risks for an experience. Foolish behavior and a tendency to get too saucy around dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity. A hunger for attention online might drive some of the current madness, but some individuals might be trying to recreate a piece of the action they have seen on television. Perhaps the adrenaline (肾上腺激素) rush when close to wild animals causes a loss of common sense. “There’s a worrying lack of awareness that animals several times our size, weight, speed and strength can easily hurt us,” says wildlife photographer David Lloyd. “I don’t think parks are doing enough to raise awareness. Tourists need to know how their presence can affect wildlife. A good example is cheetahs (猎豹) on vehicle rooftops. It may be a thrill for the bystanders, but the consequences if a mother cheetah falls off would be severe. She would no longer be able to hunt, so her babies could easily starve.” “People aren’t getting the education about why they need to stay away from wildlife, including avoiding diseases, keeping people secure and letting wildlife be wild,” says Philip Muruthi, vice president of species conservation and science for the African Wildlife Foundation. “We need to educate tourists through signs, leaflets and front-line drivers. We should stick to guidelines, and there needs to be enforcement through the law.” 28．What can we learn about thoughtless behaviour around wildlife? A．It harms tourists more than animals. B．It enables tourists to get intimate with animals. C．It may bring more profits to a tourist destination. D．It may get animals killed for defending themselves. 29．As for Mossbacher’s opinion on what drives people’s careless behavior, the author is ______. A．sympathetic B．disapproving C．doubtful D．indifferent 30．What does the underlined word “saucy” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Selfish. B．Frightened. C．disrespectful. D．Shocked. 31．What can we conclude from the passage? A．Parks are expected to take more responsibilities for educating tourists. B．Raising tourists’ awareness means stressing the danger of animals to them. C．More regulation of the tourist industry is the key to raising tourists’ awareness. D．Punishment rather than education can stop people taking silly risks around wildlife. D We are a social animal. Indeed, it is our sociality — such as the ability to make sense of each other, to communicate, to work cooperatively and, finally, to create culture — that marks us off from other animal species. But then why are we everywhere striving to increase our isolation and limit our contact with others? As musician David Byrn e argues in an essay published last month, it is a striking fact about the new technologies that have so come to shape our lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit our need for human contact. Online shopping? Check. Automated checkout? Check. Ride hail apps? Check. Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, known as “autonomous operation”. This is perhaps even more pronounced with new technologies on the horizon. Take the MOOC, the teacher-less virtual classroom. As Byrn e notes, this is meant to deliver the values of a learning environment without, well, without the environment — you get to stay at home — no teacher, but also, no fellow students. Byrne isn’t claiming we are consciously choosing to isolate ourselves. We shop online because it is convenient. The absence of contact with others is a side-effect. Maybe even an unavoidable one, as one of the things that makes online shopping so easy is precisely the absence of contact with other people. But Bryne’s thought is that whatever our intention, the tendency of our tech to isolate us may be a feature, not a bug. His hypothesis is that we actually, at some level, crave (渴望) the increased isolation and we are actually making technologies to satisfy impulses that, in some way, go beyond or against our social nature. But I wonder, is this really new? Even if we are social by nature, and do everything we can to embed ourselves socially, the need to find ways to be alone is, well, nothing new. It’s also striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the old days, books, newspapers, TV; nowadays, the latest apps also connect us. We read about each other. What we read gives us information to share with each other. I am well aware of the data that shows the more time you spend on social media, the sadder and more isolated and envious you feel of others. But how novel is the isolating effect of social media? Being there reminds me a lot of what it was like to be social in high school — you have a vivid sense of your status and your standing in relation to others, and you have to deal with that. This may be isolating, sure. But it’s the isolating face of the social lives we’ve always had. It is isolating because of the ways technology brings us into real contact with others, not because it removes that contact. I wonder whether more isolation is a real option, after all. 32．Which of the following best reflects “autonomous operation”? A．Getting a toothbrush via a hotel delivery robot. B．Teaching mom how to establish a smart home. C．Seeking help by calling human customer services. D．Having an online meeting at home with colleagues. 33．Which of the following might the author agree? A．Technology offers fresh insights into our social status. B．Actions seemingly isolating can bond people. C．Social platforms help bring people closer. D．Social media has come to define our life. 34．What would be the best title for the passage? A．What Technologies Do to Human Nature B．Do Technologies Shape Our Lives? C．How Isolation Changes with Connection D．Can We Erase Human Element? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有项为多余选项。 New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. 35 The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. 36 Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels  — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. 37 This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection promotes greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. 38 In response to this concern, Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns (与……一致) with human needs. 39 Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A．In fact, the movement is expanding into cities. B．They can inspire more responsible consumption habits. C．However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost. D．It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties. E．In this way, households get food harvested only hours before delivery. F．Whether temporary or not, they agree it’s made supermarkets rethink sourcing. G．Many of them believe global supply ensures food security better than local systems. 第三部分 书面表达（共两节，共32分） 第一节 阅读表达（共4小题，第40、41题各2分，第42题3分，第43题5分，共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求回答问题。 I had tried several things to be happier, like playing video games on my phone, scrolling short videos and avoiding doing my homework. But none of these easy things made me truly happy. They just gave me short-term pleasure at the cost of long-term regret. But the moment I put my phone down, I didn’t feel good. I regretted wasting my time. I lost focus and started craving (强烈渴望) that instant pleasure again. And because of that, I couldn’t get any work done. And if I stopped, I’d feel restless and unhappy. Either way, it was hard. The human brain likes to avoid hard things. Why? Because it was necessary for survival. When our ancestors lived in the wild, they had to hunt, search for food, fight rivals (对手), and escape predators (天敌). One wrong move and the result would be death. Today, the world is much safer. But the human brain hasn’t changed much. That’s why, if you don’t resist, the brain chooses the easiest paths to solve problems. So, if you want to achieve anything worthwhile, you need to override your brain’s default (默认的) setting and do uncomfortable things in the short term. In fact, doing hard things is one of the most powerful skills you can build. It can make your life exciting, meaningful, and free. It can change everything. It’s backed by science. There is this brain region called the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC). It gets bigger in size when we do things that we don’t like. Studies have found that aMCC is smaller in obese people, larger in athletes, and grows when we do challenging stuff. And when we avoid those challenging stuff, aMCC shrinks. aMCC is seen to generate willpower and resilience. When you do more hard things, it boosts your aMCC, which further increases your ability to stay disciplined and achieve your daily goals. Now, the first thing I do every day is something that feels uncomfortable — I’ve been waking up at 4 AM almost daily for the last two years. And it’s hard. But it does something magical. It makes me super disciplined and productive for the rest of the day. I feel more capable of tackling tasks that need deep focus. We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons. 40．How did the easy things make the author feel? 41．Why does the human brain like to avoid hard things? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals. 43．As for hard things, what can you learn from the article?

The 22 year-old design school graduate had dreamed of working for a famous fashion brand in the city. “Bamboo weaving is outdated,” she had told her grandmother before her passing. “No one buys those old-fashioned baskets and mats anymore.” Returning for the funeral, Elise found herself drawn to the quiet workshop where dust covered the neatly stacked bamboo strips. As she ran her fingers over the smooth bamboo, childhood memories flooded back — sitting on her grandmother’s lap, watching skilled hands weave delicate patterns, listening to stories of how this craft had sustained their family through generations. That evening, she discovered an old journal hidden in the loom’s drawer. The pages revealed her grandmother’s surprisingly innovative vision — sketches of bamboo products with modern designs: handbags, lampshades, and even bamboo-inspired jewelry. Next to each design were thoughtful notes about appealing to younger generations while preserving the craft’s essence, and how bamboo’s eco-friendly nature could make it relevant again. Determined to honor this legacy, Elise embarked on the challenging journey of revitalizing the workshop. She spent months mastering basic techniques, enduring blistered fingers and frustration. She experimented with combining bamboo with leather straps, colorful fabrics, and metal clasps, sharing these innovative designs on social media. Despite early struggles with few orders and criticism from traditional villagers, Elise persisted. Her breakthrough came when she began attending design fairs in nearby cities, where her unique products attracted attention from boutique owners and environmental advocates. The turning point arrived when a renowned fashion designer contacted her for a collaboration featuring sustainable materials. Soon, orders poured in from young consumers who appreciated the blend of tradition and modernity, and eco-conscious buyers who valued the zero-waste production. A year later, Elise’s transformed workshop not only thrived commercially but also became a community hub where she taught local women bamboo weaving, providing them with sustainable livelihoods. Holding her grandmother’s journal, she realized tradition means letting it grow with the times. 24．Why did Elise initially refuse to take over her grandma’s bamboo-weaving workshop? A．She wanted to stay in the city. B．She hated the boring work of bamboo weaving. C．She thought the craft was out of fashion and unprofitable. D．She didn’t have the necessary skills to run the workshop. 25．What did Elise discover in her grandma’s journal? A．Records of the family’s hard times in the past. B．Instructions on how to weave traditional bamboo baskets. C．Complaints about young people’s ignorance of traditional crafts. D．Drawings of innovative bamboo products and forward-thinking ideas. 26．Which words can best describe Elise? A．Helpful and cautious. B．Traditional and honest. C．Creative and persistent. D．Curious and dependent. 27．What can we learn from the passage? A．Elise’s ideas came from a famous fashion brand. B．Elise’s success helped preserve the traditional craft. C．Elise’s grandma had never left the small rural town. D．Elise’s bamboo products became popular because of low price. 【答案】24．C 25．D 26．C 27．B 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了Elise继承祖母的竹编作坊后，从最初拒绝到通过创新设计使其重焕生机的故事。 24．细节理解题。根据第一段中““Bamboo weaving is outdated,” she had told her grandmother before her passing. “No one buys those old-fashioned baskets and mats anymore.”(“竹编已经过时了，”她在祖母去世前对祖母说。“没人再买那些老式的篮子和垫子了。”)”可知，Elise最初拒绝接管祖母的竹编作坊是因为她认为这项手艺已经过时且无利可图。故选C。 25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“The pages revealed her grandmother’s surprisingly innovative vision — sketches of bamboo products with modern designs: handbags, lampshades, and even bamboo-inspired jewelry.(书页上展示了她祖母令人惊讶的创新构想——现代设计的竹制品草图：手提包、灯罩，甚至还有受竹子启发的珠宝。)”可知，Elise在祖母的日记中发现了创新竹制品的草图和前瞻性想法。故选D。 26．推理判断题。根据第四段中“She experimented with combining bamboo with leather straps, colorful fabrics, and metal clasps, sharing these innovative designs on social media. Despite early struggles with few orders and criticism from traditional villagers, Elise persisted.(她尝试将竹子与皮革带、彩色织物和金属扣相结合，并在社交媒体上分享这些创新设计。尽管早期订单稀少且受到传统村民的批评，Elise还是坚持了下来。)”可知，Elise具有创造力和坚持精神。故选C。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段中“A year later, Elise’s transformed workshop not only thrived commercially but also became a community hub where she taught local women bamboo weaving, providing them with sustainable livelihoods.(一年后，Elise改造后的作坊不仅在商业上蓬勃发展，还成为了一个社区中心，她在那里教当地妇女竹编，为她们提供可持续的生计。)”可知，Elise的成功帮助保留了传统手艺。故选B。 C A video spread on social media earlier this year. It showed a tourist opening a car door, putting out an arm, and trying to touch lions that walked by. The lions pushed him away, but the situation could have become very dangerous easily. Thoughtless behaviour around wildlife risks the safety of both people and animals. People risk being attacked, mauled (撕咬) and possibly killed, while animals can be harmed, removed or put down, no matter whether they were only defending themselves. Animal attacks can also cast a destination in a negative light, causing temporary closures or scaring off visitors. All just so someone could boast that they had touched lions or captured a moment on a camera phone. “Tourists are getting more and more careless around wildlife and the source of the problem is social media.” says wildlife photographer Anette Mosshachers. “People risking their lives or doing stupid things with wildlife are after ’likes’ and followers, something to show off on social media,” says Mossbacher. “The greater the risk, the more ‘likes’ they get. With some clients, it seems like a sickness or addiction.” Yet social media is not entirely to blame. People have always taken risks for an experience. Foolish behavior and a tendency to get too saucy around dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity. A hunger for attention online might drive some of the current madness, but some individuals might be trying to recreate a piece of the action they have seen on television. Perhaps the adrenaline (肾上腺激素) rush when close to wild animals causes a loss of common sense. “There’s a worrying lack of awareness that animals several times our size, weight, speed and strength can easily hurt us,” says wildlife photographer David Lloyd. “I don’t think parks are doing enough to raise awareness. Tourists need to know how their presence can affect wildlife. A good example is cheetahs (猎豹) on vehicle rooftops. It may be a thrill for the bystanders, but the consequences if a mother cheetah falls off would be severe. She would no longer be able to hunt, so her babies could easily starve.” “People aren’t getting the education about why they need to stay away from wildlife, including avoiding diseases, keeping people secure and letting wildlife be wild,” says Philip Muruthi, vice president of species conservation and science for the African Wildlife Foundation. “We need to educate tourists through signs, leaflets and front-line drivers. We should stick to guidelines, and there needs to be enforcement through the law.” 28．What can we learn about thoughtless behaviour around wildlife? A．It harms tourists more than animals. B．It enables tourists to get intimate with animals. C．It may bring more profits to a tourist destination. D．It may get animals killed for defending themselves. 29．As for Mossbacher’s opinion on what drives people’s careless behavior, the author is ______. A．sympathetic B．disapproving C．doubtful D．indifferent 30．What does the underlined word “saucy” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Selfish. B．Frightened. C．disrespectful. D．Shocked. 31．What can we conclude from the passage? A．Parks are expected to take more responsibilities for educating tourists. B．Raising tourists’ awareness means stressing the danger of animals to them. C．More regulation of the tourist industry is the key to raising tourists’ awareness. D．Punishment rather than education can stop people taking silly risks around wildlife. 【答案】28．D 29．C 30．C 31．A 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讨论了游客在野生动物周围的不理智行为及其原因，并强调了教育和法规在提高游客意识方面的重要性。 28．细节理解题。根据第二段中“People risk being attacked, mauled (撕咬) and possibly killed, while animals can be harmed, removed or put down, no matter whether they were only defending themselves.(人们冒着被攻击、被撕咬甚至可能被杀死的风险，而动物则可能受到伤害、被移走或被杀死，无论它们是否只是在自卫。)”可知，游客在野生动物周围的不理智行为可能会使动物因自卫而被杀死。故选D。 29．推理判断题。根据第三段““Tourists are getting more and more careless around wildlife and the source of the problem is social media.” says wildlife photographer Anette Mosshachers. “People risking their lives or doing stupid things with wildlife are after ’likes’ and followers, something to show off on social media,” says Mossbacher. “The greater the risk, the more ‘likes’ they get. With some clients, it seems like a sickness or addiction.”(野生动物摄影师安妮特・莫斯巴赫表示：“游客面对野生动物时越来越疏忽大意，而问题的根源就在于社交媒体。人们冒着生命危险、做出出格举动招惹野生动物，只为博取点赞、涨粉丝，想在网上炫耀自己。风险越大，收获的点赞就越多。有些游客，简直像是染上了瘾、走火入魔。”)”和第四段中“Yet social media is not entirely to blame. People have always taken risks for an experience. Foolish behavior and a tendency to get too saucy around dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity. A hunger for attention online might drive some of the current madness, but some individuals might be trying to recreate a piece of the action they have seen on television. Perhaps the adrenaline (肾上腺激素) rush when close to wild animals causes a loss of common sense.(然而，社交媒体并非唯一罪魁祸首。为了追求新奇体验，人类向来就爱冒险。愚蠢的举动、在危险动物面前肆意放肆的心态，自人类诞生之初就一直存在。渴望网络关注或许助长了如今的疯狂行为，但也有部分人，只是想模仿在电视上看到的画面。或许近距离接触野生动物时飙升的肾上腺素，会让人丧失理智、丢掉常识。)”可知，作者分析人类自古就有冒险心理、模仿影视画面、肾上腺素上头等其他原因可知，作者对莫斯巴赫将问题完全归结于社交媒体、点赞跟风的观点持怀疑态度。故选C。 30．词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Foolish behavior and a tendency to get too saucy around dangerous animals must have been around since the dawn of humanity.(愚蠢的行为和在危险动物周围过于saucy的倾向从人类诞生之初就存在了。)”以及“Perhaps the adrenaline (肾上腺激素) rush when close to wild animals causes an loss of common sense.(也许当接近野生动物时，肾上腺素的激增会导致常识的丧失。)”可知，接近野生动物时，肾上腺素的激增会导致常识的丧失，在危险动物面前过于放肆的倾向，故saucy意思是“无礼的，不尊重的”。故选C。 31．推理判断题。根据第五段中“I don’t think parks are doing enough to raise awareness. Tourists need to know how their presence can affect wildlife.(我认为公园在提高公众意识方面做得还不够。游客需要知道他们的存在会如何影响野生动物)”和第六段中“People aren’t getting the education about why they need to stay away from wildlife, including avoiding diseases, keeping people secure and letting wildlife be wild(人们没有得到关于为什么他们需要远离野生动物的教育，包括避免疾病，保证人们的安全，让野生动物自然生长)”可推知，公园在提高公众意识方面做得还不够，应该在教育游客方面承担更多的责任。故选A项。 D We are a social animal. Indeed, it is our sociality — such as the ability to make sense of each other, to communicate, to work cooperatively and, finally, to create culture — that marks us off from other animal species. But then why are we everywhere striving to increase our isolation and limit our contact with others? As musician David Byrn e argues in an essay published last month, it is a striking fact about the new technologies that have so come to shape our lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit our need for human contact. Online shopping? Check. Automated checkout? Check. Ride hail apps? Check. Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, known as “autonomous operation”. This is perhaps even more pronounced with new technologies on the horizon. Take the MOOC, the teacher-less virtual classroom. As Byrn e notes, this is meant to deliver the values of a learning environment without, well, without the environment — you get to stay at home — no teacher, but also, no fellow students. Byrne isn’t claiming we are consciously choosing to isolate ourselves. We shop online because it is convenient. The absence of contact with others is a side-effect. Maybe even an unavoidable one, as one of the things that makes online shopping so easy is precisely the absence of contact with other people. But Bryne’s thought is that whatever our intention, the tendency of our tech to isolate us may be a feature, not a bug. His hypothesis is that we actually, at some level, crave (渴望) the increased isolation and we are actually making technologies to satisfy impulses that, in some way, go beyond or against our social nature. But I wonder, is this really new? Even if we are social by nature, and do everything we can to embed ourselves socially, the need to find ways to be alone is, well, nothing new. It’s also striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the old days, books, newspapers, TV; nowadays, the latest apps also connect us. We read about each other. What we read gives us information to share with each other. I am well aware of the data that shows the more time you spend on social media, the sadder and more isolated and envious you feel of others. But how novel is the isolating effect of social media? Being there reminds me a lot of what it was like to be social in high school — you have a vivid sense of your status and your standing in relation to others, and you have to deal with that. This may be isolating, sure. But it’s the isolating face of the social lives we’ve always had. It is isolating because of the ways technology brings us into real contact with others, not because it removes that contact. I wonder whether more isolation is a real option, after all. 32．Which of the following best reflects “autonomous operation”? A．Getting a toothbrush via a hotel delivery robot. B．Teaching mom how to establish a smart home. C．Seeking help by calling human customer services. D．Having an online meeting at home with colleagues. 33．Which of the following might the author agree? A．Technology offers fresh insights into our social status. B．Actions seemingly isolating can bond people. C．Social platforms help bring people closer. D．Social media has come to define our life. 34．What would be the best title for the passage? A．What Technologies Do to Human Nature B．Do Technologies Shape Our Lives? C．How Isolation Changes with Connection D．Can We Erase Human Element? 【答案】32．A 33．B 34．D 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了在线购物和社交媒体如何可能无意中导致人们感到孤独，但同时强调这些活动也提供了与他人建立联系的机会，反映了现代社会中人们在追求便利与社交之间的平衡。 32．推理判断题。由文章第三段中“Efficiency is the key. We purchase efficiency by limiting the human aspect, known as “autonomous operation”. This is perhaps even more pronounced with new technologies on the horizon. Take the MOOC, the teacher-less virtual classroom. As Byrn e notes, this is meant to deliver the values of a learning environment without, well, without the environment — you get to stay at home — no teacher, but also, no fellow students. (效率是关键。我们通过限制人的方面来获得效率，被称为“自主操作”。随着新技术的出现，这一点可能更加明显。以MOOC为例，即没有教师的虚拟课堂。正如伯恩所指出的，这意味着在没有环境的情况下，传递学习环境的价值——你可以呆在家里——没有老师，也没有同学)”可知，通过限制人为因素（即自主操作）来提高效率。由此推知，通过酒店送货机器人获取牙刷正好符合“自主操作”的定义，因为这一过程中没有人为的参与，完全由机器人自主完成。故选A。 33．推理判断题。由文章第六段中“Even if we are social by nature, and do everything we can to embed ourselves socially, the need to find ways to be alone is, well, nothing new. It’s also striking that the very activities that risk separating us — in the old days, books, newspapers, TV; nowadays, the latest apps — also connect us. We read about each other. What we read gives us information to share with each other. (即使我们天生具有社交性，并尽我们所能融入社会，寻找独处方式的需求也不是什么新鲜事。同样令人吃惊的是，那些有可能把我们分开的活动——在过去，书籍、报纸、电视；如今，最新的应用程序也连接着我们。我们互相了解对方。我们所读的东西给我们提供信息，让我们彼此分享)” 可推知，作者认为看似孤立的行为实际上可以让人们产生联系。故选B。 34．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是由文章第二段“But then why are we everywhere striving to increase our isolation and limit our contact with others? As musician David Byrn e argues in an essay published last month, it is a striking fact about the new technologies that have so come to shape our lives, that they have precisely this effect: they limit our need for human contact. Online shopping? Check. Automated checkout? Check. Ride hail apps? Check. (但是，为什么我们到处都在努力增加我们的孤立，限制我们与他人的接触呢？正如音乐家David Byrn在上月发表的一篇文章中所指出的那样，新技术如此塑造了我们的生活，一个令人震惊的事实是，它们恰恰具有这样的效果：它们限制了我们对人际交往的需求。)”可知，文章主语讨论了在线购物和社交媒体如何可能无意中导致人们感到孤独，但同时强调这些活动也提供了与他人建立联系的机会，反映了现代社会中人们在追求便利与社交之间的平衡。由此可知，D项“Can We Erase Human Element? (我们能抹去人类元素吗？)”适合作本文最佳标题。故选D。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有项为多余选项。 New discoveries and technological breakthroughs are made every year. Yet, as the agricultural sector moves forward, many people in society are looking back to their roots in terms of the food they eat. A “locavore” movement has emerged in the United States, encouraging people to eat foods grown locally and sustainably. 35 The United States’ agricultural output is among the highest in the world. Farms here are tremendously productive, thanks to advanced technology and massive inputs. 36 Professor Timothy Beach points out that this food system heavily depends on fossil fuels  — both for machinery and fertilizer production. As global petrol reserves reduce, such dependence is turning into a growing threat to agricultural stability. Despite these challenges, the move toward sustainability is growing stronger. Farmers like Louise Keckler run small farms that supply fresh produce through community-supported agriculture networks. 37 This freshness not only improves nutrition but also helps consumers understand how climate change affects food systems. This personal connection promotes greater environmental awareness. Some experts also question whether the “locavore” movement is just a passing craze. 38 In response to this concern, Professor Beach admits uncertainty but believes fully sustainable agriculture could still feed the nation. Professor Erin Barnett calls it a lasting trend — a return to a more natural way of eating that aligns (与……一致) with human needs. 39 Urban residents are now growing tomatoes on balconies or herbs in window boxes. As Kirk Wilbur, a former urban farming advocate, notes, “No matter how small a space you have, you still have enough room to grow some food.” Local eating is no longer limited to rural areas — it’s becoming a lifestyle accessible to all. A．In fact, the movement is expanding into cities. B．They can inspire more responsible consumption habits. C．However, this productivity comes at a high environmental cost. D．It shortens supply chains and strengthens producer-consumer ties. E．In this way, households get food harvested only hours before delivery.

But none of these easy things made me truly happy. They just gave me short-term pleasure at the cost of long-term regret. But the moment I put my phone down, I didn’t feel good. I regretted wasting my time. I lost focus and started craving (强烈渴望) that instant pleasure again. And because of that, I couldn’t get any work done. And if I stopped, I’d feel restless and unhappy. Either way, it was hard. The human brain likes to avoid hard things. Why? Because it was necessary for survival. When our ancestors lived in the wild, they had to hunt, search for food, fight rivals (对手), and escape predators (天敌). One wrong move and the result would be death. Today, the world is much safer. But the human brain hasn’t changed much. That’s why, if you don’t resist, the brain chooses the easiest paths to solve problems. So, if you want to achieve anything worthwhile, you need to override your brain’s default (默认的) setting and do uncomfortable things in the short term. In fact, doing hard things is one of the most powerful skills you can build. It can make your life exciting, meaningful, and free. It can change everything. It’s backed by science. There is this brain region called the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC). It gets bigger in size when we do things that we don’t like. Studies have found that aMCC is smaller in obese people, larger in athletes, and grows when we do challenging stuff. And when we avoid those challenging stuff, aMCC shrinks. aMCC is seen to generate willpower and resilience. When you do more hard things, it boosts your aMCC, which further increases your ability to stay disciplined and achieve your daily goals. Now, the first thing I do every day is something that feels uncomfortable — I’ve been waking up at 4 AM almost daily for the last two years. And it’s hard. But it does something magical. It makes me super disciplined and productive for the rest of the day. I feel more capable of tackling tasks that need deep focus. We must all suffer from one of two pains: the pain of discipline or the pain of regret. The difference is discipline weighs ounces while regret weighs tons. 40．How did the easy things make the author feel? 41．Why does the human brain like to avoid hard things? 42．Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why. Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals. 43．As for hard things, what can you learn from the article? (In about 40 words) 【答案】40．They brought the author short-term pleasure but long-term regret. 41．Because it was essential for survival. In the wild, ancestors faced life-threatening situations if they made wrong moves while dealing with hard things. 42．Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals. Explanation: The passage clearly states that when we do challenging things, the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC) grows. So, doing hard things increases rather than reduces the size of aMCC. 43．Doing hard things builds willpower and discipline, making life more meaningful. We should embrace them to better ourselves and reach our goals. 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要论述简单的事情只能带来短暂愉悦却伴有长期懊悔，阐述大脑倾向逃避难事的原因，并强调做难事对个人成长的重要意义。 40．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“But none of these easy things made me truly happy. They just gave me short-term pleasure at the cost of long-term regret.(但这些轻松的事没有一件能让我真正开心。它们只是以长期的懊悔为代价，给我带来了短期的愉悦)”可知，那些容易的事情让作者感受到短期的快乐，但伴随着长期的遗憾。故填They brought the author short-term pleasure but long-term regret. 41．细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The human brain likes to avoid hard things. Why? Because it was necessary for survival. When our ancestors lived in the wild, they had to hunt, search for food, fight rivals (对手), and escape predators (天敌). One wrong move and the result would be death.(人类的大脑喜欢避开困难的事情。为什么呢？因为这对生存来说是必要的。当我们的祖先生活在野外时，他们必须狩猎、寻找食物、与对手搏斗以及躲避天敌。一步走错，结果就可能是死亡)”可知，人类大脑喜欢避开困难的事情是因为这对生存来说是必要的，祖先在野外时，错误的行动可能导致死亡。故填Because it was essential for survival. In the wild, ancestors faced life - threatening situations if they made wrong moves while dealing with hard things. 42．推理判断题。根据第六段中的“There is this brain region called the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC). It gets bigger in size when we do things that we don’t like. Studies have found that aMCC is smaller in obese people, larger in athletes, and grows when we do challenging stuff. And when we avoid those challenging stuff, aMCC shrinks.(有一个叫做前扣带皮层（aMCC）的大脑区域。当我们做自己不喜欢的事情时，它的尺寸会变大。研究发现，肥胖人群的aMCC较小，运动员的aMCC较大，并且当我们做有挑战性的事情时它会增长。而当我们避开那些有挑战性的事情时，aMCC会缩小)”可知，我们做有挑战性的事情时aMCC）会增长。故填Doing hard things reduces the size of your brain region called aMCC, which helps you stick to your plans and achieve daily goals. Explanation: The passage clearly states that when we do challenging things, the anterior midcingulate cortex (aMCC) grows. So, doing hard things increases rather than reduces the size of aMCC. 43．开放性试题。我们应该明白，做困难的事情有利于我们的成长。它能增强我们的意志力，让生活更有意义，因此我们应该积极拥抱挑战。故填We should understand that doing hard things is good for our growth. It can strengthen our willpower and make our lives more meaningful, so we should actively embrace them. 第二节: 书面表达（共一题，20分) 44．假设你是红星中学高三学生李华，你的外国好友Jim打算在学校举办的世界非物质文化遗产展示周（World Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Week）中介绍中国非物质文化遗产，发来邮件询问你的建议。请你用英文给他回信，内容包括： 1. 你推荐的非物质文化遗产； 2. 简要说明理由。 注意：1. 词数100左右； 2. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】 Dear Jim, I’m thrilled to hear that you’re introducing Chinese intangible cultural heritage at the World Intangible Cultural Heritage Exhibition Week.
