For the past eight years, the retired biology teacher’s balcony in Buenos Aires has been a safe haven for injured or abandoned wild geese. With her careful care, more than 200 geese have regained strength and returned to the nearby wetlands. Lila’s journey with wild geese began in 2015, two years after her husband passed away. She felt lost and lonely until one rainy afternoon, when she found a weak gosling trembling under a tree — its wing broken by a stray cat. “I couldn’t leave it there,” Lila recalls. She named the gosling Dewdrop and spent weeks nursing it back to health: feeding it nutrient-rich goose feed, cleaning its wound daily, and teaching it to swim in a small basin. As Dewdrop grew stronger, Lila found joy she hadn’t felt in years. “That little goose gave me a reason to get up every morning,” she says. Soon, neighbors and passersby started bringing her injured wild geese — some with broken legs, others weakened by pollution or hunger. Lila dug into her old biology textbooks and searched online for goose care tips. A local vet even offered free advice to help her improve her nursing skills. Last year, a student posted a video of Lila feeding the geese on Instagram, and it quickly went viral with over 800,000 views. People from nearby areas began donating goose feed and medical supplies. Yet the wild geese still face great plight in the city. The wetlands they depend on are shrinking due to urban construction; stray animals and water pollution pose constant risks. But Lila never loses hope. She has started a small community group to plant native water plants and advocate for wetland protection. “Caring for these geese isn’t just about saving them,” she says. “It’s about reminding people that we share this city with all living things.” Every time a healed goose flies off to the wetlands, Lila stands on her balcony, watching proudly. For her, these geese are more than just rescued creatures — they are symbols of comfort, hope, and the power of small acts of kindness. 4. What can we learn about Dewdrop from the text? A. It stayed with Lila for eight years. B. It was the reason Lila retired from teaching. C. It helped Lila get out of loneliness. D. It became famous on social media for its story. 5. What does the underlined word “plight” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Difficulty. B. Noise. C. Competition. D. Change. 6. Which words best describe Lila according to the text? A. Kind-hearted and determined. B. Humorous and creative. C. Brave and ambitious. D. Honest and outgoing. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Lila and Wild Geese: Protection and Research B. Lila and Wild Geese: Rescue and Comfort C. Lila and Wild Geese: Friendship and Adventure D. Lila and Wild Geese: Survival and Success 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. A 7. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了Lila救助野雁并得到慰藉的故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Lila’s journey with wild geese began in 2015, two years after her husband passed away. She felt lost and lonely until one rainy afternoon, when she found a weak gosling trembling under a tree — its wing broken by a stray cat.(Lila与野雁的旅程始于2015年，也就是她丈夫去世两年后。她感到迷茫和孤独，直到一个下雨的下午，她发现一只虚弱的小雁在树下颤抖——它的翅膀被一只流浪猫折断了)”以及“As Dewdrop grew stronger, Lila found joy she hadn’t felt in years. “That little goose gave me a reason to get up every morning,” she says.(随着Dewdrop越来越强壮，Lila找到了她多年来未曾感受到的快乐。她说：“那只小雁给了我每天起床的理由。”)”可知，Dewdrop帮助Lila摆脱了孤独。故选C。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“Yet the wild geese still face great plight in the city. The wetlands they depend on are shrinking due to urban construction; stray animals and water pollution pose constant risks. (然而，大雁在城市里仍然面临着巨大的plight。它们赖以生存的湿地因城市建设而不断缩小；流浪动物和水污染构成了持续的风险)”可知，野生大雁在城市中仍然面临着巨大的困境。plight的意思是“困境，困难”，与“difficulty”意思相近。故选A。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Lila Marquez gently places a tiny wild goose with an injured wing into a soft cotton box. (Lila Marquez轻轻地把一只翅膀受伤的小野雁放进一个柔软的棉盒里)”以及第四段“But Lila never loses hope. She has started a small community group to plant native water plants and advocate for wetland protection. (但Lila从未失去希望。她成立了一个小型社区团体，种植本地水生植物，倡导湿地保护)”可知，Lila是善良且坚定的。故选A。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，尤其是最后一段“For her, these geese are more than just rescued creatures — they are symbols of comfort, hope, and the power of small acts of kindness. (对她来说，这些大雁不仅仅是被救的生物——它们是安慰、希望和小善举力量的象征)”可知，本文主要讲述了Lila救助野生大雁并得到慰藉的故事，所以B选项“Lila与野生大雁：救援与慰藉”适合作为文章标题。故选B。 C Scientists from the University of Otago’s Christchurch Medical School have discovered a direct connection between people’s vitamin C intake and their skin’s ability to produce collagen (胶原蛋白)and renew itself. The study, published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, clearly shows that skin health is influenced by vitamin C from daily food, not just by topical (外用的)creams applied to the skin surface. It also found that vitamin C levels in the skin are closely related to those in the blood. Therefore, eating more foods rich in vitamin C can effectively increase vitamin C levels in both the blood and the skin. The research included 24 healthy adults from New Zealand and Germany. Those eating two SunGold kiwifruits daily raised blood vitamin C levels and saw a clear increase in skin vitamin C. This made skin thicker — due to more collagen — and sped up outer skin renewal. Lead researcher Professor Margreet Vissers described the results as surprising and said the strong connection between skin thickness and vitamin C intake is fully believable. She noted the connection between blood and skin vitamin C is clearer than in other organs. “We were surprised by how closely blood vitamin C levels are connected to those in the skin,” she said. The research team also discovered that vitamin C in the blood can reach all layers of the skin and help the skin work better. Though vitamin C is often added to skincare products, it is not well taken in through the outer skin. However, skin cells can take in vitamin C from the blood very well. SunGold kiwifruits were chosen for the study because they always have a high vitamin C content. But the researchers believe other foods rich in vitamin C, such as oranges and berries, can bring similar benefits to the skin. It is important to keep steady vitamin C levels in the blood because the human body does not store vitamin C for a long time. Professor Vissers suggested that healthy people can reach the best blood vitamin C levels with about 250mg of vitamin C every day through their diet. 8. What affects skin health according to the study? A. Water taken in by the skin. B. Vitamin C from food intake. C. Collagen from skin products. D. Topical skincare creams alone. 9. What is Professor Vissers’ attitude towards the study results? A. Doubtful. B. Approving. C. Unconcerned. D. Objective. 10. Why are vitamin C-rich skincare products less effective? A. They lack enough collagen. B. They are not used in a proper way. C. They don’t suit all skin types. D. They are poorly taken in through skin. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Vitamin C Intake and Skin Health B. Blood Vitamin C and Skin Vitamin C C. Skincare Products and Vitamin C Intake D. Collagen Production and Skin Thickness 【答案】8. B 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了奥塔哥大学基督城医学院的科学家发现人们摄入的维生素C与皮肤产生胶原蛋白和自我更新的能力之间存在直接联系，阐述了维生素C对皮肤健康的影响等相关研究内容。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The study, published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, clearly shows that skin health is influenced by vitamin C from daily food, not just by topical (外用的)creams applied to the skin surface.(这项发表在《皮肤病学研究杂志》上的研究明确表明，皮肤健康受日常食物中维生素C的影响，而不仅仅是涂抹在皮肤表面的外用乳膏。)”可知，研究显示食物摄入的维生素C会影响皮肤健康。故选B项。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Lead researcher Professor Margreet Vissers described the results as surprising and said the strong connection between skin thickness and vitamin C intake is fully believable.(首席研究员Margreet Vissers教授称这些结果令人惊讶，并表示皮肤厚度与维生素C摄入之间的密切关联完全可信。)”可知，她对研究结果持认可态度。故选B项。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Though vitamin C is often added to skincare products, it is not well taken in through the outer skin.(尽管维生素C常被添加到护肤品中，但它很难通过皮肤外层被很好地吸收。)”可知，含维生素C的护肤品效果较差是因为皮肤难以吸收。故选D项。 【11题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“Scientists from the University of Otago’s Christchurch Medical School have discovered a direct connection between people’s vitamin C intake and their skin’s ability to produce collagen (胶原蛋白)and renew itself.(奥塔哥大学基督城医学院的科学家发现，人们摄入的维生素C与皮肤产生胶原蛋白和自我更新的能力之间存在直接联系。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要围绕维生素C摄入与皮肤健康之间的关系展开，所以A选项“Vitamin C Intake and Skin Health(维生素C摄入与皮肤健康)”是最佳标题。故选A项。 D Since its expansion in the early 2000s, Special Olympics Unified Sports has grown into a powerful platform that bridges gaps between students with and without disabilities. Beyond middle and high schools, the programme now includes elementary schools and community clubs, welcoming over 2.3 million participants across 170 countries. Unified Sports allows young athletes with intellectual or physical challenges to train, compete, and grow alongside non-disabled peer partners, breaking down barriers through shared sports experiences. Maplewood High School in Portland has offered Unified Sports for 12 years, with popular programmes in track and field and badminton. Coach Elena Mendez, who leads the track team, has witnessed remarkable changes in her athletes. “Unified Sports isn’t just about winning races,” she says. “It’s about teaching every athlete to believe in themselves. For many of our students with disabilities, this is the first time they’ve felt fully accepted as part of a team. They learn to set goals, support each other, and celebrate small victories — skills that stay with them long after graduation.” Unlike traditional team sports, Unified teams have no strict tryouts, and the focus is on inclusion rather than competition. Coach Jake Torres, who oversees the badminton programme, adds, “My priority is to make sure every athlete feels valued, whether they’re serving an ace or just learning to hold the racket. We practice ‘team cheers’ after every drill, and peer partners often stay after practice to help their teammates master new skills. It’s beautiful to see how both groups grow — disabled athletes gain confidence, and peer partners learn empathy.” Sophia Lin, a 10th-grader with visual impairment (视力受损), joined the Unified track team last year. “Before Unified Sports, I was scared to talk to classmates,” she shares. “Now, my teammates wait for me at the track every morning, and we practice running together. I won a bronze medal in the 100-meter dash last semester, but the best part is making friends who don’t see my disability — they see me.” Her peer partner, Liam Carter, agrees: “Working with Sophia taught me that strength comes in many forms. We’re not just teammates; we’re family.” Today, Maplewood’s Unified teams regularly compete in regional tournaments, and their success has inspired three nearby schools to launch similar programmes. “Unified Sports isn’t just a sports programme,” says Principal Amanda Reed. “It’s a lesson in humanity — one that shows our students the power of kindness, respect, and inclusion.” 12. What do we know about Special Olympics Unified Sports from Paragraph 1? A. It started in elementary schools in the 2000s. B. It has attracted over 2.3 million participants worldwide. C. It only allows disabled athletes to join competition teams. D. It separates disabled and non-disabled students during training. 13. What is Elena Mendez’s view on Unified Sports? A. It focuses more on winning than personal growth. B. It mainly teaches athletes to set high goals. C. It is less meaningful than traditional varsity sports. D. It helps disabled athletes build life-long skills. 14. What does Jake Torres value most as a coach? A. Helping athletes win regional tournaments. B. Training peer partners to be professional coaches. C. Ensuring every athlete feels respected and valued. D. Making tryouts accessible for all interested students. 15. What is the main idea of the text? A. Unified Sports promotes inclusion and growth for all students. B. Maplewood High School’s Unified teams win regional fame. C. Peer partners benefit more from Unified Sports than disabled athletes. D. Special Olympics Unified Sports expands to community clubs. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. C 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍自21世纪初扩张以来，特奥会融合运动发展成为强大平台，打破残疾与非残疾学生之间的隔阂，文中以波特兰枫叶木高中为例，阐述其开展情况及带来的积极影响。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Beyond middle and high schools, the programme now includes elementary schools and community clubs, welcoming over 2.3 million participants across 170 countries.(除了初中和高中，该项目现在还包括小学和社区俱乐部，吸引了170个国家的超过230万参与者)”可知，特奥会融合运动在全球吸引了超过230万参与者，故选B项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段““Unified Sports isn’t just about winning races,” she says. “It’s about teaching every athlete to believe in themselves. For many of our students with disabilities, this is the first time they’ve felt fully accepted as part of a team. They learn to set goals, support each other, and celebrate small victories—skills that stay with them long after graduation.”(她说：“融合运动会不只是为了赢得比赛。它的意义在于教会每一位运动员相信自己。对于我们许多残障学生来说，这是他们第一次真正被团队完全接纳。他们学会设定目标、互相支持、为小小的胜利喝彩——这些技能在他们毕业之后，仍会伴随他们很久”)”可知，她认为融合运动帮助残疾运动员培养终身受用的技能，故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“My priority is to make sure every athlete feels valued, whether they’re serving an ace or just learning to hold the racket.(我最优先考虑的是确保每个运动员都感到被重视，无论他们是在发出一记好球还是刚刚学习握球拍)”可知，他最看重确保每个运动员都感到被尊重和重视，故选C项。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Today, Maplewood’s Unified teams regularly compete in regional tournaments, and their success has inspired three nearby schools to launch similar programmes. “Unified Sports isn’t just a sports programme,” says Principal Amanda Reed. “It’s a lesson in humanity — one that shows our students the power of kindness, respect, and inclusion.”(如今，梅普尔伍德的融合运动队定期参加地区锦标赛，他们的成功也激励了附近三所学校推出类似项目。“融合运动不只是一个体育项目，” 阿曼达・里德校长说，“它是一堂关于人性的课——让学生们感受到善良、尊重与包容的力量”)”可知，文章开篇介绍特奥会融合运动打破残疾与非残疾学生隔阂，接着以枫叶木高中为例，阐述其开展情况及对学生在自我认同、团队协作等方面的积极影响，最后强调它是关于人性的一课，展示了善良、尊重和包容的力量，所以文章主要讲述融合运动促进所有学生的包容与成长，故选A项。 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。 Top Healthy Homework Habits Your homework habits might be affecting your grades.

F 【解析】 【分析】本文属于说明文，介绍改善做家庭作业习惯和效率的几条建议。 【16题详解】 本段首句Your homework habits might be affecting your grades.说明再做家庭作业的习惯可能会影响你的分数，根据前一句Are you feeling tired, painful, or bored when it comes to homework time?可知，该做家庭作业了，你是否感到疲倦、痛苦以及无聊，描述家庭作业的痛苦之处，C选项“你是否总是和家长讨论成绩？”描述作业与成绩的关系，是前两句的延伸，故选C。 【17题详解】 本段陈述睡眠对于家庭作业的重要性，故A选项“获得足够的睡眠时间”符合本段文意，故选A。 【18题详解】 根据前一句If you sometimes avoid working on a project because you just don’t have the energy, you can increase your energy level by changing your diet.可知，如果是因为没有精力而不能做事情的话，你可以改变饮食习惯来补充能量，D选项“早上一根香蕉可以改善你在学校的表现”是对前一句改变饮食习惯的举例说明，故选D。 【19题详解】 根据后一句But there is one mnemonic (记忆的) method that has been around since ancient times.可知，古代就有记忆的方法，E选项“改善记忆的方法和理论有很多”引起下文，故选E。 【20题详解】 根据本段的小标题Fight the urge to procrastinate (拖延)以及后一句Don't fall for it!可知，需要与拖延症作斗争，不要上当，F选项“做家庭作业的时候，是否有强烈的意愿要去喂狗呢？”如果是这样，那就是拖延症的表现，不能上当，故选F。 【点睛】七选五 七选五题型看似简单，实际上有时完全作对并不容易，需要方法和分析能力及足够的耐力。这种题一般可从以下方面来做： （1）看首段，跳过空格快速通读全篇，了解文章大意。首段的末句一般是全文的主题所在，首段的末句对于快速掌握文章的主题具有重要意义。 （2）首先快速浏览一遍七个备选答案，先确定哪个选项适合放在文章的什么位置。如浏览本文后可知第2小题是主题句，分析选项可知，可能是A项，分析本段发现选项与本段有词的复现，sleep。故选A。 （3）精读空格前后两句，利用各种衔接手段选择正确的选项填入空格。七选五空出的是整个句子，而这些句子与句子之间，必然有一种联系，因此我们可以通过选项中某个名词或动词跟空前或空后的一致性或者相关性来确定这两个句子之间有一种关联性，从而选择正确的答案。考查对上下文的理解及推理判断能力。 （4）看选项，找出与空前空后句中心词同义，近义或相关性的词语。实现关键词的对接，先易后难，各个突破。此外要通过句子的逻辑关系或句子的标点来判断该句在文章的位置。 （5） 解题的关键是能娴熟地利用各种衔接手段。尤其要注意代词，连词等。如表示转折关系的but，though, however 等。 做完后，通读全文。将所选项放入空白处，通读一遍，看看是否与上下文构成语义及逻辑上的直接关系，是否符合该处语境。能否承接前后的写作线索。 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。 It was hard to say goodbye to the old oak tree in our backyard. She was already ____21____ when my grandparents settled here 60 years ago — gnarled (多节的) but strong, standing tall as a silent guardian over the garden. We have a faded ____22____ of my mother playing under her branches as a child, the tree’s leaves ____23____ as if saying hello to her. That oak had a distinct ____24____. Her trunk bent slightly to the east, as if reaching for the morning sun, and her branches spread wide enough to cover the entire yard. Kids in the neighborhood loved climbing her thick limbs; birds built nests in her ____25____, and fireflies danced in her leaves at dusk. She was more than a tree — she was part of our family. But time took its toll. We watched her ____26____ weaken over the years. The leaves turned yellow earlier each autumn, and some branches dried up and broke off in storms. Even the squirrels, who once stored acorns in her bark, started ____27____.

The photo frame holding my mother’s childhood picture is ____34____ to the touch, carrying the warmth of the sun she once soaked up.

Colour blindness___36___(affect) approximately 1 in 12 men and 1 in 200 women in the world. There are various causes of colour blindness. For the majority of colour-blind people, the condition is something they have from ___37___(bear), although some people get it later in life because of diseases. Most colour-blind people can see things as clearly as other people, but ___38___ are unable to fully “see” red, green or blue light. There are different types of colour blindness and there are extremely rare cases ___39___ people are unable to see any colour at all. The ___40___(common) form of colour blindness is red/green colour blindness. Although ___41___ (know) as red/green colour blindness, the form of colour blindness doesn't mean sufferers ___42___ (mere) mix up red and green. It means they mix up all ___43___ (colour) that have some red or green as part of the whole colour. The effects___44___colour blindness can be mild, moderate (中等的) or severe. Approximately 40% of colour blind people are even unaware that they’re colour blind. Statistically___45___(speak), most people with a moderate form of red/green colour blindness can only identify 5 coloured pencils from a standard box of 24 pencil crayons. 【答案】36. affects 37. birth 38. they 39. where 40. most common/commonest 41. known 42. merely 43. colours 44. of 45. speaking 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文。色盲的人不能以正常的方式看到颜色。文章介绍了不同类型的色盲。 【36题详解】 考查时态。句意：全球约有1 / 12的男性和1 / 200的女性患有色盲。此处在说一个客观事实，所以句子用一般现在时态，主语是Colour blindness，单数第三人称，故答案为affects。 【37题详解】 考查名词。句意：对于大多数色盲患者来说，这种情况是他们从出生就有的，尽管有些人因为疾病在晚年才患上这种疾病。from是介词，用名词作宾语，故填名词birth。 【38题详解】 考查人称代词。句意：大多数色盲的人能像其他人一样清楚地看到东西，但他们不能完全“看到”红色、绿色或蓝色的光。此处用they代替上半句中的Most colour-blind people，故答案为they。 【39题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：色盲有不同的类型，有其极罕见的案例是人们根本看不到任何颜色。此处cases是先行词，在后面的定语从句中作地点状语，故答案为where。 【40题详解】 考查最高级。句意：最常见的色盲是红/绿色盲。结合句意可知此处用最高级，故答案为most common/commonest。 【41题详解】 考查过去分词作状语。句意：虽然被称为红/绿色盲，但这种形式的色盲并不意味着患者只是把红和绿混在一起。此处句子主语the form和know之间是一种被动关系，省略了相同的主语和be动词，是过去分词与although连用作让步状语，故答案为known。 【42题详解】 考查词形转换。句意：虽然被称为红/绿色盲，但这种形式的色盲并不意味着患者只是把红和绿混在一起。此处mix是动词，由副词来修饰，故答案为merely。 【43题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：这意味着他们混合了所有的颜色，有一些红色或绿色作为整体颜色的一部分。根据all可知，后面的名词用复数形式，故答案为colours。 【44题详解】 考查介词。句意：色盲的影响可以是轻微、中度或严重的。此处表示所有“------的”，故答案为介词of。 【45题详解】 考查现在分词的独立成分。句意：据统计，大多数患有中度红/绿色盲的人只能从24支铅笔的标准盒中辨认出5支彩色铅笔。此处是现在分词的独立主格结构，故答案为speaking。 【点睛】分析定语从句关键抓住两点：第一、找准先行词；第二、看先行词在定语从句中所作的成分。先行词往往为名词或代词，如本题第4小题，先行词为名词cases，再分析先行词cases在定语从句中所作的成分，将先行词cases带到从句中可知，只能作地点状语，故确定关系词为where。 第四部分：书面表达(40分) 第一节(满分15分) 46. 假定你是李华，你校与英国某中学合作开展的“青年文化交流”(Youth Cultural Exchange)期交换项目正在招募成员。请你给项目负责人Mr Smith写一封邮件，申请加入该项目，内容包括： (1)写邮件目的；(2)你的优势。注意：写作词数应为80个左右。 Dear Mr Smith, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Mr Smith, I am writing to apply to join the “Youth Cultural Exchange” semester programme.

She asked me what kind of instrument I was interested in. I didn’t have any idea, but I thought playing the drums was cool and interesting. So she took me to enroll in a drum course in the Children’s Palace, where I spent nearly every Sunday morning for two years, practicing playing the drum. As time went on, I went to middle school. I joined a band as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drum in a team and meeting new friends. At first it was easy because of my constant practice during the primary school, but a month later, it got more and more difficult. I was the only one who couldn’t keep pace with the other players. The band consists of students playing the violin, the piano, the guitar and so on. We were in a team; the music was beautiful, but it seemed rather challenging. So I was in low spirits when playing in the band, and the joy of playing music began to fade. Our teacher, Ms Miller, noticed my struggle and singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. With each missed beat, I felt ashamed as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I no longer cared if it was done right. “Are you giving up, Steve?” Ms Miller asked gently. “Yes, I am,” I shouted. Ms Miller sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said, “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it! ” She told me never to give up and left me alone to think about it. Alone in the music room, I recalled Ms Miller’s words and finally realized she was right. Quitting wasn’t just about giving up on myself; it was about abandoning my team. I couldn’t let my teammates down. 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。 Then I decided to go on practicing. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, we performed in an important show. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Then I decided to go on practicing. I took Ms Miller’s words to heart and spent extra hours in the music room after school, focusing on each beat and rhythm until I got them right. It was tough, but as I gradually improved, my confidence grew. My teammates began to notice my progress and supported me with encouraging words. The joy of playing music started to return, and I began to feel like an essential part of the band again. Later, we performed in an important show. Standing on the stage, I felt a mix of excitement and nerves, but I was ready. As we began our piece, I concentrated on each beat, ensuring my drumming matched the harmony of the team. The performance went smoothly, and the audience applauded loudly as we finished. Ms Miller smiled at me from the side of the stage, and I felt a deep sense of accomplishment. That moment taught me the value of perseverance and teamwork, lessons I would carry with me forever. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述的是小时候，母亲让作者学习乐器，作者选择了打鼓，并在儿童宫学了近两年。中学时，作者加入了一个乐队，开始觉得有趣，但一个月后感到困难，因为作者跟不上其他队员的节奏。在老师的鼓励下，作者意识到放弃不仅是对自己不负责，也会让队友失望。最终，作者决定不放弃，重新振作，继续努力练习，以不辜负老师和队友的期望。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段句首内容“然后我决定继续练习。”可知，第一段可以描写作者在练习中取得的进步和信心的增长。 ②由第二段句首内容“后来，我们在一个重要的节目中表演。”可知，第二段可以描写作者演奏时的心理活动和演奏的结果。 2.续写线索：决定继续练习——取得进步——信心的增长——重要的节目中表演——进行得很顺利——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①专注于：focus on/concentrate on ②改进：improve/upgrade ③增强：grow/boost 情绪类 ①艰难的：tough/difficult ②深深的成就感：a deep sense of accomplishment/a deep sense of achievement 【点睛】【高分句型1】I took Ms Miller’s words to heart and spent extra hours in the music room after school, focusing on each beat and rhythm until I got them right.

For the past eight years, the retired biology teacher’s balcony in Buenos Aires has been a safe haven for injured or abandoned wild geese. With her careful care, more than 200 geese have regained strength and returned to the nearby wetlands. Lila’s journey with wild geese began in 2015, two years after her husband passed away. She felt lost and lonely until one rainy afternoon, when she found a weak gosling trembling under a tree — its wing broken by a stray cat. “I couldn’t leave it there,” Lila recalls. She named the gosling Dewdrop and spent weeks nursing it back to health: feeding it nutrient-rich goose feed, cleaning its wound daily, and teaching it to swim in a small basin. As Dewdrop grew stronger, Lila found joy she hadn’t felt in years. “That little goose gave me a reason to get up every morning,” she says. Soon, neighbors and passersby started bringing her injured wild geese — some with broken legs, others weakened by pollution or hunger. Lila dug into her old biology textbooks and searched online for goose care tips. A local vet even offered free advice to help her improve her nursing skills. Last year, a student posted a video of Lila feeding the geese on Instagram, and it quickly went viral with over 800,000 views. People from nearby areas began donating goose feed and medical supplies. Yet the wild geese still face great plight in the city. The wetlands they depend on are shrinking due to urban construction; stray animals and water pollution pose constant risks. But Lila never loses hope. She has started a small community group to plant native water plants and advocate for wetland protection. “Caring for these geese isn’t just about saving them,” she says. “It’s about reminding people that we share this city with all living things.” Every time a healed goose flies off to the wetlands, Lila stands on her balcony, watching proudly. For her, these geese are more than just rescued creatures — they are symbols of comfort, hope, and the power of small acts of kindness. 4. What can we learn about Dewdrop from the text? A. It stayed with Lila for eight years. B. It was the reason Lila retired from teaching. C. It helped Lila get out of loneliness. D. It became famous on social media for its story. 5. What does the underlined word “plight” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Difficulty. B. Noise. C. Competition. D. Change. 6. Which words best describe Lila according to the text? A. Kind-hearted and determined. B. Humorous and creative. C. Brave and ambitious. D. Honest and outgoing. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. Lila and Wild Geese: Protection and Research B. Lila and Wild Geese: Rescue and Comfort C. Lila and Wild Geese: Friendship and Adventure D. Lila and Wild Geese: Survival and Success C Scientists from the University of Otago’s Christchurch Medical School have discovered a direct connection between people’s vitamin C intake and their skin’s ability to produce collagen (胶原蛋白)and renew itself. The study, published in the Journal of Investigative Dermatology, clearly shows that skin health is influenced by vitamin C from daily food, not just by topical (外用的)creams applied to the skin surface. It also found that vitamin C levels in the skin are closely related to those in the blood. Therefore, eating more foods rich in vitamin C can effectively increase vitamin C levels in both the blood and the skin. The research included 24 healthy adults from New Zealand and Germany. Those eating two SunGold kiwifruits daily raised blood vitamin C levels and saw a clear increase in skin vitamin C. This made skin thicker — due to more collagen — and sped up outer skin renewal. Lead researcher Professor Margreet Vissers described the results as surprising and said the strong connection between skin thickness and vitamin C intake is fully believable. She noted the connection between blood and skin vitamin C is clearer than in other organs. “We were surprised by how closely blood vitamin C levels are connected to those in the skin,” she said. The research team also discovered that vitamin C in the blood can reach all layers of the skin and help the skin work better. Though vitamin C is often added to skincare products, it is not well taken in through the outer skin. However, skin cells can take in vitamin C from the blood very well. SunGold kiwifruits were chosen for the study because they always have a high vitamin C content. But the researchers believe other foods rich in vitamin C, such as oranges and berries, can bring similar benefits to the skin. It is important to keep steady vitamin C levels in the blood because the human body does not store vitamin C for a long time. Professor Vissers suggested that healthy people can reach the best blood vitamin C levels with about 250mg of vitamin C every day through their diet. 8. What affects skin health according to the study? A. Water taken in by the skin. B. Vitamin C from food intake. C. Collagen from skin products. D. Topical skincare creams alone. 9. What is Professor Vissers’ attitude towards the study results? A. Doubtful. B. Approving. C. Unconcerned. D. Objective. 10. Why are vitamin C-rich skincare products less effective? A. They lack enough collagen. B. They are not used in a proper way. C. They don’t suit all skin types. D. They are poorly taken in through skin. 11. What is the best title for the passage? A. Vitamin C Intake and Skin Health B. Blood Vitamin C and Skin Vitamin C C. Skincare Products and Vitamin C Intake D. Collagen Production and Skin Thickness D Since its expansion in the early 2000s, Special Olympics Unified Sports has grown into a powerful platform that bridges gaps between students with and without disabilities. Beyond middle and high schools, the programme now includes elementary schools and community clubs, welcoming over 2.3 million participants across 170 countries. Unified Sports allows young athletes with intellectual or physical challenges to train, compete, and grow alongside non-disabled peer partners, breaking down barriers through shared sports experiences. Maplewood High School in Portland has offered Unified Sports for 12 years, with popular programmes in track and field and badminton. Coach Elena Mendez, who leads the track team, has witnessed remarkable changes in her athletes. “Unified Sports isn’t just about winning races,” she says. “It’s about teaching every athlete to believe in themselves. For many of our students with disabilities, this is the first time they’ve felt fully accepted as part of a team. They learn to set goals, support each other, and celebrate small victories — skills that stay with them long after graduation.” Unlike traditional team sports, Unified teams have no strict tryouts, and the focus is on inclusion rather than competition. Coach Jake Torres, who oversees the badminton programme, adds, “My priority is to make sure every athlete feels valued, whether they’re serving an ace or just learning to hold the racket. We practice ‘team cheers’ after every drill, and peer partners often stay after practice to help their teammates master new skills. It’s beautiful to see how both groups grow — disabled athletes gain confidence, and peer partners learn empathy.” Sophia Lin, a 10th-grader with visual impairment (视力受损), joined the Unified track team last year. “Before Unified Sports, I was scared to talk to classmates,” she shares. “Now, my teammates wait for me at the track every morning, and we practice running together. I won a bronze medal in the 100-meter dash last semester, but the best part is making friends who don’t see my disability — they see me.” Her peer partner, Liam Carter, agrees: “Working with Sophia taught me that strength comes in many forms. We’re not just teammates; we’re family.” Today, Maplewood’s Unified teams regularly compete in regional tournaments, and their success has inspired three nearby schools to launch similar programmes. “Unified Sports isn’t just a sports programme,” says Principal Amanda Reed. “It’s a lesson in humanity — one that shows our students the power of kindness, respect, and inclusion.” 12.

She asked me what kind of instrument I was interested in. I didn’t have any idea, but I thought playing the drums was cool and interesting. So she took me to enroll in a drum course in the Children’s Palace, where I spent nearly every Sunday morning for two years, practicing playing the drum. As time went on, I went to middle school. I joined a band as a drummer in my middle school. I thought it would be fun playing the drum in a team and meeting new friends. At first it was easy because of my constant practice during the primary school, but a month later, it got more and more difficult. I was the only one who couldn’t keep pace with the other players. The band consists of students playing the violin, the piano, the guitar and so on. We were in a team; the music was beautiful, but it seemed rather challenging. So I was in low spirits when playing in the band, and the joy of playing music began to fade. Our teacher, Ms Miller, noticed my struggle and singled me out to keep practicing while everyone else got to relax. With each missed beat, I felt ashamed as my teammates watched me fail so many times. Finally I got so tired of practicing that I no longer cared if it was done right. “Are you giving up, Steve?” Ms Miller asked gently. “Yes, I am,” I shouted. Ms Miller sent me inside the music room where I cried out. Then she came in and said, “Don’t be sad. I believe you can make it! ” She told me never to give up and left me alone to think about it. Alone in the music room, I recalled Ms Miller’s words and finally realized she was right. Quitting wasn’t just about giving up on myself; it was about abandoning my team. I couldn’t let my teammates down. 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。 Then I decided to go on practicing. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Later, we performed in an important show. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
