It is characterized by its complexity, formal structure, and the use of notation to guide performance. Unlike popular or folk music, classical music often involves compositions that require a high level of technical skill from performers. Historical Context Classical music has its roots in the Middle Ages (approximately 450-1450 AD) and has evolved through several distinct periods, including the Renaissance, Baroque, Classical, Romantic, and Modern eras. Key Periods ● Renaissance Period (1450-1600) is distinguished by polyphonic (复调的) textures and humanistic musical expressions, with representative composers including Thomas Tallis, Josquin des Prez and Claudio Monteverdi. ● Baroque Era (1600-1750) is marked by splendid musical forms, with composers like Johann Sebastian Bach and George Frideric Handel. ● Classical Period (1750-1820) is defined by clarity and balance, with famous figures such as Joseph Haydn. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and Ludwig van Beethoven, often referred to as the “Viennese Classical School”. ● Romantic Period (1820-1900) focuses on emotional expression and individualism, featuring composers like Franz Schubert and Johannes Brahms. ● 20th Century and Beyond saw the emergence of various styles, including Modernism and Impressionism, with influential composers like Igor Stravinsky and Claude Debussy. Influence and Legacy Classical music has significantly influenced many modern music genres and continues to be a vital part of cultural and intellectual life. Its emphasis on formal composition and expressive depth has shaped not only the development of music but also broader artistic and cultural movements throughout history. In summary, classical music is a rich and diverse tradition that has evolved over centuries, characterized by its formal structure and expressive depth, making it a cornerstone of Western musical heritage. 21. What are the characteristics of the Renaissance Period? A. Splendid musical forms. B. Modernism and Impressionism. C. Polyphony and humanism. D. Emotion and individualism. 22. Whose music most probably displays clear and balanced structures? A. Bach and Handel. B. Haydn and Mozart. C. Beethoven and Debussy. D. Schubert and Brahms. 23. Which section in a music magazine can you find this passage? A. Album Review B. Artist Interview C. Readers’ Choice D. Genre Focus B As a young girl growing up in France, Sarah Toumi dreamed of becoming a leader who could make the world a better place. Her passion to help others was awakened when, from the age of nine, she accompanied her Tunisian father to his birthplace in the east of the country during holidays. There she organized homework clubs and activities for children. Toumi witnessed first-hand the destructive effect of desertification(沙漠化). “Within 10 years rich farmers became worse off, and in 10 years from now they will be poor. I wanted to stop the Sahara Desert in its tracks.” A decrease in average rainfall and an increase in the severity of droughts have led to an estimated 75 percent of Tunisia’s agricultural lands being threatened by desertification. Toumi recognized that farming practices needed to change. She is confident that small land areas can bring large returns if farmers are able to adapt by planting sustainable (可持续的) crops, using new technologies for water treatment and focusing on natural products and fertilizers (肥料) rather than chemicals. In 2012, Toumi continued her dream to fight the desert. She moved to Tunisia, and set up a programme named Acacias for All to put her sustainable farming philosophy into action. “I want to show young people in rural areas that they can create opportunities where they are. Nobody is better able to understand the impact of desertification and climate change than somebody who is living with no access to water.” By September 2016, more than 130, 000 acacia trees had been planted on 20 pilot farms, with farmers recording a 60 percent survival rate. Toumi estimates that some 3 million acacia trees are needed to protect Tunisia’s farmland. She expects to plant 1 million trees by 2028. In the next couple of years, Toumi hopes to extend the programme to Algeria and Morocco. 24. How did Toumi’s holiday trips to Tunisia influence her? A. They fired her enthusiasm for helping others. B. They helped her better understand her father. C. They made her decide to leave the country. D. They destroyed her dream of being a teacher. 25. What is the main cause of the desertification of Tunisia’s farmland? A. Cold weather. B. Soil pollution. C. Low rainfall. D. Forest damage. 26. Why did Toumi set up Acacias for All in Tunisia? A. To create job opportunities for young people. B. To promote the protection of their farmland. C. To persuade the farmers not to use fertilizers. D. To help the children obtain a basic education. 27. Which of the following can best describe Sarah? A. Strict and intelligent. B. Responsible and determined. C. Ambitious but self-doubting. D. Humble but inexperienced. C That dinosaurs ate the mammals (哺乳动物) that ran beneath their feet is not in doubt. Now an extraordinary fossil newly described in Scientific Reports, unearthed by a team led by Gang Han at Hainan Vocational University of Science and Technology in China, shows that sometimes the tables were turned. The fossil—dated to about 125 million years ago, during the Cretaceous period—was formed when a flow of boiling volcanic mud swallowed two animals seemingly locked in a life-and-death fight. The one on top is a mammal. This animal is a herbivorous species closely related to the Triceratops (三角恐龙). Animal interactions such as this are exceptionally rare in the fossil record. One possibility is that the mammal was eating something already dead, rather than hunting live prey. These days it is uncommon for small mammals to attack much larger animals. But it is not unheard of. And Dr. Han and his colleagues point out that those mammals which eat dead bodies typically leave tooth marks all over the bones of the animals. The dinosaur’s remains show no such marks. There is also a chance the fossil could be a fake. More and more convincing fakes have emerged, as this one did—though Dr. Han and his colleagues argue that the complexly connected nature of the skeletons (骨骼) makes that unlikely, too. Assuming it is genuine, the discovery serves as a reminder that not all dinosaurs were enormous during the Cretaceous and not all mammals were tiny. From nose to tail, the dinosaur is just 1.2 meters long. The mammal is a bit under half a meter in length. Despite being half the size, the mammal has one paw firmly wrapped around one of its prey’s limbs, and another pulling on its jaw. It is biting down on the dinosaur’s chest and has ripped off two of its ribs. Before they were interrupted, it seems that the mammal was winning. 28. Which idiom is closest in meaning to underlined part “the tables were turned” in paragraph 1? A. The fittest survives. B. The hunters become hunted. C. Fortune always favors the brave. D. The truth will always come to light. 29. Why does the author mention the “tooth mark” in paragraph 3? A. To prove the fossil was fake. B. To show the forming of the fossil. C. To illustrate the process of hunting. D. To suggest the dinosaur was hunted alive. 30. What makes Dr. Han think the fossil is genuine? A. The size of the fossil. B. The absence of fake fossils. C. The complexity of the skeletons. D. The sameness of the opinions. 31. What is the function of the last paragraph? A. It offers a cause. B. It highlights a solution. C. It supports the conclusion. D. It provides a new discovery. D The effects of high altitude (海拔) on the human body could protect against obesity (肥胖), according to a study of more than 4 million children across Colombia. The findings support the theory that low oxygen levels drive increased energy consumption, though prior evidence comes mainly from adults. To understand the potential impact on children, Lizcano Losada at the University of La Sabana analysed data on 4.16 million children aged up to 5 years old from 1123 cities. The children were separated into four groups relating to the height above sea level at which they lived: up to 1000 metres, 1001 to 2000 metres, 2001 to 3000 metres or above 3000 metres. In the two lower altitude regions, around 80 out of every 10,000 children had obesity. However, at altitudes of 2001 to 3000 metres, the prevalence (发生率) of obesity fell to 40 in 10,000. At altitudes above 3000 metres, the prevalence was higher again: 86 out of 10,000. However, the team says this may be a statistical accident, as this data set included fewer cities and children than the other three altitude ranges. “That’s a fair comment,” says David Stensel at Loughborough University. But he also emphasizes the study is observational, so it doesn’t prove high altitude prevents obesity. “They’ve tried to make sure they’ve adjusted for the other potential influencing factors,” he says. These include measures of poverty and low income. But “you can’t account for everything,” says Stensel. Assuming high altitude really does make obesity less likely, Stensel says it isn’t clear how this knowledge could be of practical use in reducing the condition. However, Losada argues the findings support the creation of geographically tailored public health strategies. He suggests further studies are needed to better understand the biological pathways linking altitude to childhood obesity, which could lead to more precise health advice for different regions. 32. What was the analysis in Losada’s study mainly based on? A. Grouped data. B. Sample size. C. Children’s age. D. City type. 33. What is the team’s view on the unexpected result of the study? A. It’s a definite trend. B. It’s a chance occurrence. C. It’s a misleading signal. D. It’s a measurement error. 34. What does the author try to illustrate by mentioning Stensel in paragraph 4? A. The importance of health knowledge. B. The necessity of actionable strategies. C. The limitation of the research method. D. The complexity of the influencing factors. 35. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Altitude’s Role in Childhood Weight B. Less Oxygen, Healthier Children? C. A New Approach to Fighting Obesity D. Why the Weight Gap in Colombia? 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。 I grew up in Sichuan, but I only learned to cook surprisingly late in life, after moving to Germany when I began missing the taste of home. My first adult kitchen was in a small, shared flat in Berlin — Mitte. Out of necessity, I turned to Xiachufang, a Chinese user-generated recipe app, and taught myself a handful of dishes. 36 And over the next decade, I must have made it at least fifty, if not a hundred times. I know I’m not alone. For many Chinese immigrants, tomato and egg is the first dish we master once we leave home. 37 It only began appearing in Chinese kitchens in the 1940s, yet it somehow became the most “default (默认的)” of home-cooked meals. 38 Some will claim no version tops their mother’s. Others chase down hidden menu at high-end restaurants or drive across Chengdu just for the plate everyone says “is the best”. For all its simplicity, with just tomatoes, eggs, oil, and salt, some versions do taste better than others. 39 This summer, though, with late-season tomatoes at their peak, I decided to test what actually makes a difference. I cooked plate after plate, sometimes five or six times within two weeks. At one point, I threw a batch (一批) into the fridge, determined never to see tomato and egg again. 40 A. They were an absolute treat. B. Tomato and egg stir-fry was one of them. C. The dish often pulled me back to my childhood. D. The surprising fact is that the dish itself is relatively young. E. Today, tomato and egg are both universal and deeply personal. F. Yet the next day, I reheated it, paired it with steamed rice, and ate up the whole thing. G. For years, I made mine with the cheapest supermarket tomatoes I could find in Germany. 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。 In early 2026, a heartwarming story from Hechuan, Chongqing, captured national attention and awakened people’s longing for an authentic Lunar New Year experience.
