But it wasn’t just about physical discipline. It tested my patience, strategy, and a different kind of mental commitment. I tried to play complex pieces before mastering the basics. It was a struggle, but I learned to respect the process. Soon my first public performance arrived. I thought I would be very nervous, but strangely, I wasn’t. I played without missing a beat. The applause and cheers were truly amazing. Every struggle, every wrong note was worth it in that moment. In conclusion, I want to remind you that taking on any new skill requires more than just physical strength; it demands respect for the process and the courage to keep pushing forward. Thank you. 第二部分：阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A In the Chinese film Ne Zha 2, many treasures of ancient cultural relics are brought to life. Let’s take a closer look at these cultural elements and the real-life prototypes(原型) that inspired them. Seven-colored lotus In Ne Zha 2, the seven-colored lotus plays a critical role in reconstructing the bodies of the heroes, Ne Zha and Ao Bing. This concept is inspired by the Boshan censer(香炉), a 2,000-year-old bronze burner housed at the Hebei Museum. Barrier beasts If you’ve seen both Ne Zha films, you’re sure to remember the lovely and charming barrier beasts—funny creatures that serve as guardians. These creatures bear a striking similarity to ancient relics from the Sanxingdui culture. Tianyuan tripod The Tianyuan tripod in the film is a key tool in the Jade Xu Palace. Its design draws inspiration from the bronze tripods used during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The tripod was a symbol of power and status in ancient China, often used in ceremonies. Jade Xu Palace When Ne Zha travels to the Jade Xu Palace, a group of birds flies in the sky, with two of them landing on the palace roof. This scene is inspired by the famous painting “Ruihe Tu” by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty (Zhao Ji). Emperor Huizong painted this scene on silk, symbolizing his blessing for the country and its people. 21. What inspired the design of the seven-colored lotus in Ne Zha 2? A. The painting Ruihe Tu. B. Sanxingdui cultural relics. C. Bronze tripods in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. D. The Boshan censer from the Hebei Museum. 22. What does the tripod represent in ancient China? A. Artistic creativity. B. Religious beliefs. C. Power and status. D. Technological progress. 23. Where is this passage most likely taken from? A. A book review. B. A history textbook. C. An entertainment magazine. D. A travel guide. 【答案】21. D 22. C 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要讲述了电影《哪吒 2》中一些文化元素以及它们在现实生活中的原型，包括七彩莲花、结界兽、天元鼎和玉虚宫等。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“This concept is inspired by the Boshan censer (香炉), a 2,000-year-old bronze burner housed at the Hebei Museum.(这个概念的灵感来自于河北博物馆一件有 2000年历史的青铜香炉 —— 博山炉)” 可知，电影《哪吒 2》中七彩莲花的设计灵感来自河北博物馆的博山炉。故选D。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段 “The tripod was a symbol of power and status in ancient China, often used in ceremonies.(鼎在中国古代是权力和地位的象征，常用于仪式中)” 可知，鼎在古代中国代表权力和地位。故选C。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In the Chinese film Ne Zha 2 , many treasures of ancient cultural relics are brought to life. Let’s take a closer look at these cultural elements and the real-life prototypes(原型 ) that inspired them.(在中国电影《哪吒 2》中，许多古代文物瑰宝被赋予了鲜活的形象。让我们一同深入探寻这些文化元素，以及激发其创作灵感的现实生活中的原型)”可知，文章主要围绕电影《哪吒 2》中的文化元素展开，与娱乐相关，最有可能出现在娱乐杂志里，故选C。 B Jennifer Keelan was a young girl who had dreams of one day attending college and living a satisfactory life. At age 2, Jennifer was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (脑瘫), leaving her using a wheelchair. Jennifer was a bright and courageous girl, but when she attempted to attend school with her friends, she was sent to separate classes for students with disabilities, regardless of talent. She found herself unable to attend some school functions, use transit systems and access government buildings. Jennifer accepted the limitations of her physical life, but not the limitations of the physical world around her. Jennifer became active in campaigning for the Americans with Disabilities Act. She engaged in peaceful protests and, at age 7, was arrested in Montreal, a moment in history that shocked North America. At age 8, Jennifer traveled to Washington, D.C. The shy, yet determined little girl caught the attention of the country when she climbed up the Capitol steps. It worked. Jennifer met with Congress, and President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law. Jennifer remains an activist today, making sure all people with disabilities are treated fairly and have equal access to public places, schools and businesses. The only barriers that remain are those of view. Jennifer wants all of us to know that physical disabilities are not a barrier to friendship, career opportunities or love. She graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in family and human development. She is now 39 years old and still sharing the message of inclusivity (包容性) . For her, like all of us, making a difference begins one step at a time, no matter how hard it is. She remains a lifelong activist for the disability rights movement. 24. What prevented Jennifer studying with her friends? A. Her serious illness. B. Her low intelligence. C. Her born language barrier. D. Her poor learning ability. 25. What made North America amazed about Jennifer? A. Her helping the disabled. B. Her being sent to prison. C. Her entering the Capitol alone. D. Her being elected as president. 26. What happened due to Jennifer’s effort? A. The law of the United State changed a lot. B. Bush met the representatives of the disabled. C. Arizona State University accepted the disabled. D. The Americans with Disabilities Act was signed. 27. What is the best title of this text? A. A Girl Managed to Enter the Congress B. A Girl Makes a Difference to the Country C. A Girl Succeeded in Attending the College D. A Girl Struggles for the Rights of the Disabled 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. D 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了女孩Jennifer Keelan因为患病无法和朋友们一起学习，于是参与了和平抗议活动，为残疾人权利做出努力和奋斗。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“At age 2, Jennifer was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (脑瘫), leaving her using a wheelchair. Jennifer was a bright and courageous girl, but when she attempted to attend school with her friends, she was sent to separate classes for students with disabilities, regardless of talent.(2岁时，珍妮弗被诊断出患有脑瘫，不得不依靠轮椅生活。詹妮弗是一个聪明勇敢的女孩，但当她试图和朋友们一起上学时，她被送到残疾学生的单独班级，而不管她的才能如何)”可知，重病阻碍了詹妮弗和她的朋友们一起学习。故选A。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“At age 8, Jennifer traveled to Washington, D.C. The shy, yet determined little girl caught the attention of the country when she climbed up the Capitol steps.(8岁时，詹妮弗去了华盛顿特区。当她爬上国会大厦的台阶时，这个害羞但坚定的小女孩引起了全国的关注)”可知，詹妮弗独自进入国会大厦让北美对詹妮弗感到惊讶。故选C。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Jennifer met with Congress, and President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law.(詹妮弗会见了国会议员，乔治·H·W·布什总统签署了《美国残疾人法案》，使之成为法律)”可知，由于詹妮弗的努力，《美国残疾人法案》签署了。故选D。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据倒数第二段“Jennifer remains an activist today, making sure all people with disabilities are treated fairly and have equal access to public places, schools and businesses.(詹妮弗今天仍然是一名积极分子，确保所有残疾人都得到公平对待，并有平等的机会进入公共场所、学校和企业)”以及最后一段“She remains a lifelong activist for the disability rights movement.(她一生都是残疾人权利运动的积极分子)”结合文章主要讲述了女孩Jennifer Keelan因为患病无法和朋友们一起学习，于是参与了和平抗议活动，为残疾人权利做出努力和奋斗。故D选项“一个女孩为残疾人的权利而奋斗”最符合文章标题。故选D。 C Sometimes a stranger can significantly improve our day. A pleasant encounter with someone we don’t know, even a nonverbal exchange, can comfort us when no one else is around. It may get us out of our own heads — a proven mood booster — and help broaden our perspective. “People feel more connected when they talk to strangers, like they are part of something bıgger,” says Gillian Sandstrom, a psychologist and senior lecturer at the University of Essex who studies interactions between strangers. In research studies, Sandstrom has found that people’s moods improve after they have a conversation with a stranger — say, a Starbucks barista, a volunteer at a museum, or the person next to them in line. Overall, people report that they are happier on days when they have more interactions with acquaintances (泛泛之交) they don’t know well. And yet most of us resist talking to people we don’t know or barely know. We feel upset about the mechanics of the conversation — how to start, maintain, or stop it. We think we will blather on and disclose too much, or not talk enough. We worry we will bore the other person. We’re typically wrong. Sandstrom’s research shows that people underestımate how much another person will like them when they talk for the first time. In a study in which she asked participants to talk to at least one stranger a day for five days, 99 percent said they had found at least one of the exchanges pleasantly surprising, 82 percent said they’d learned something from one of the strangers, 43 percent had exchanged contact information, and 40 percent had communicated with one of the strangers again. Scientists believe there may be an ancient reason why humans are able to enjoy interacting with strangers. To survive as a species, we need to mate outside our own gene pool, so we may have evolved to have both the social skills and the motivation to be with people who are not in our tribe. You don’t even have to talk to complete strangers to reap the benefits. Multiple studies show that people who interact regularly with passing acquaintances or who engage with others through community groups, religious gatherings, or volunteer opportunities have better emotional and physical health and live longer than those who do not. 28. According to the passage, most people are ______ to talk with strangers. A. comfortable B. eager C. unwilling D. disappointed 29. The figures in paragraph 5 are meant to illustrate that ______. A. people feel better than expected after talking with strangers B. people may disclose too much if they communicate with strangers C. people should leave a good impression while talking with strangers D. people underestimate their ability to start a conversation with strangers 30. According to the passage, which statement are scientists most likely to agree with? A. Our social skills are declining with evolution. B. We enjoy interacting with strangers by nature. C. We prefer to communicate with strangers non-verbally. D. Our motivation to interact with strangers varies across cultures. 31. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage? A. Strangers are kinder than we think. B. Random interactions can be meaningful. C. We should be careful when talking with strangers. D. Interactions with acquaintances may not benefit us. 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. B 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了与陌生人交流的益处，包括提升心情、拓宽视野等，并解释了人们为何倾向于避免与陌生人交流，同时指出与陌生人交流对身心健康有积极影响。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“And yet most of us resist talking to people we don’t know or barely know. (然而，我们大多数人都拒绝与不认识或几乎不认识的人交谈。)”可知，大多数人不愿意与陌生人交谈。故选C项。 【29题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Sandstrom’s research shows that people underestımate how much another person will like them when they talk for the first time. In a study in which she asked participants to talk to at least one stranger a day for five days, 99 percent said they had found at least one of the exchanges pleasantly surprising, 82 percent said they’d learned something from one of the strangers, 43 percent had exchanged contact information, and 40 percent had communicated with one of the strangers again. (Sandstrom的研究表明，人们低估了第一次交谈时对方对自己的喜欢程度。在一项研究中，她要求参与者在五天内每天至少与一个陌生人交谈，99%的人表示，他们发现至少有一次交流令人惊喜，82%的人表示，他们从其中一个陌生人那里学到了一些东西，43%的人交换了联系方式，40%的人再次与其中一个陌生人交流。)”可推知，第五段中的数字是为了说明人们在与陌生人交谈后感觉比预期的要好。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第六段“Scientists believe there may be an ancient reason why humans are able to enjoy interacting with strangers. To survive as a species, we need to mate outside our own gene pool, so we may have evolved to have both the social skills and the motivation to be with people who are not in our tribe. (科学家们认为，人类之所以能够享受与陌生人的互动，可能有一个古老的原因。作为一个物种，为了生存，我们需要在自己的基因库之外寻找配偶，所以我们可能已经进化出了与部落之外的人相处的社交技能和动机。)”可推知，科学家们最可能同意的观点是我们天生就喜欢与陌生人互动。故选B项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。纵览全文，尤其是根据第一段“Sometimes a stranger can significantly improve our day. A pleasant encounter with someone we don’t know, even a nonverbal exchange, can comfort us when no one else is around. It may get us out of our own heads — a proven mood booster — and help broaden our perspective. (有时候，一个陌生人就能大大改善我们的一天。与一个我们不认识的人愉快地相遇，甚至是一个非语言的交流，都能在我们身边没有其他人的时候安慰我们。它可能会让我们摆脱自己的思维定式 —— 这是一种已被证明能提升情绪的方法 —— 并帮助我们拓宽视野。)”以及最后一段“You don’t even have to talk to complete strangers to reap the benefits. Multiple studies show that people who interact regularly with passing acquaintances or who engage with others through community groups, religious gatherings, or volunteer opportunities have better emotional and physical health and live longer than those who do not.(你甚至不需要和完全陌生的人交谈就能获得好处。多项研究表明，与过路的熟人定期互动，或通过社区团体、宗教聚会或志愿者机会与他人交往的人，比那些不这样做的人情绪和身体健康状况更好，寿命也更长。)”可推知，文章主要讲述了与陌生人交流的益处，由此可得出结论：不经意的互动可能是有意义的。故选B项。 D Plants are not only living things; researchers say they also possess a form of intelligence. New research shows plants like goldenrods (麒麟草) are “smart enough” to detect other nearby plants without ever making contact. They are also smart enough to adapt to threatening situations, such as herbivores (草食动物) eating them. Some people try to define intelligence as having a central nervous system, where electrical signals pass along messages to other nerves to process information. Plants do not have a brain like humans. Now, the study authors propose a new definition of intelligence. Instead of focusing on signs of electrical signaling in a plant, the team focused on how that signaling helps a plant process environmental cues. Specifically, the team looked for evidence of problem-solving as a sign of intelligence. Goldenrods were the plants researchers chose to observe in this study. The team previously looked at how goldenrods responded when eaten by pests like the leaf beetle larvae. To protect themselves from being eaten, goldenrods release a chemical that tricks the insect into thinking the plant is damaged and would not make a good meal. The chemical compounds are also picked up by nearby goldenrod plants, allowing them to mount their defenses against the herbivore. While some goldenrods might have some damage, this quick thinking reduces the risk of being completely eaten alive. Instead, goldenrods distribute the damage by tricking the beetle larvae into moving on to another plant. Previous research has shown that neighboring plants that detect goldenrods eaten by herbivores adapt to the situation by growing faster and making more defensive compounds to fight off pests. When there are no neighbors nearby to warn them of a potential threat, the plants do not engage in accelerated growth, and the chemical response they send out is different. Additionally, goldenrods detect chemicals released from pests and use them as cues for a threat that could potentially attack them. 32. Which question must the study authors answer to figure out whether a plant is intelligent? A. Is it able to solve a problem? B. Does it have a nervous system? C. Can it send electrical signals? D. Has it drawn people’s attention? 33. How do goldenrods protect themselves from being eaten? A. By growing taller than other plants. B. By producing poisonous fruits right away. C. By sending out chemicals to cheat herbivores. D. By turning to the surrounding plants. 34. How is the last paragraph mainly developed? A. By making a conclusion. B. By making a comparison. C. By explaining two professional processes. D. By stating small weaknesses of previous studies. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Some plants might be intelligent B. Approaches to improve the health of plants C. Plants’ reactions to artificial elements D. Studies on plants’ resistance of illnesses 【答案】32. A 33. C 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍研究提出植物具备智能的新定义，以麒麟草为例说明其感知环境、释放化学物质自保及预警邻株的表现。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Specifically, the team looked for evidence of problem-solving as a sign of intelligence.(具体来说，该团队将寻找解决问题的证据视作智力的标志。)”可知，研究者判定植物是否有智力，必须看它是否能够解决问题。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“To protect themselves from being eaten, goldenrods release a chemical that tricks the insect into thinking the plant is damaged and would not make a good meal.(为了保护自己不被吃掉，麒麟草会释放一种化学物质，欺骗昆虫，让昆虫以为这株植物已经受损、不宜食用。)”可知，麒麟草通过释放化学物质欺骗草食动物来保护自己。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的“When there are no neighbors nearby to warn them of a potential threat, the plants do not engage in accelerated growth, and the chemical response they send out is different.(当附近没有邻居预警潜在威胁时，植物不会加速生长，且释放的化学反应也有所不同。)”可知，本段将有周边植株预警和无预警两种情况进行对照对比展开行文。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“Plants are not only living things; researchers say they also possess a form of intelligence. New research shows plants like goldenrods (麒麟草) are “smart enough” to detect other nearby plants without ever making contact. They are also smart enough to adapt to threatening situations, such as herbivores (草食动物) eating them.(植物不仅是生物；研究人员称它们还拥有一种智力。新研究表明，像麒麟草这类植物足够聪明，无需接触就能感知附近其他植物。它们也足够聪明，能够适应威胁性情况，比如草食动物食用它们。)”以及后文介绍植物智能的新定义、以麒麟草为例说明其自保和预警邻株的聪明表现可知，文章围绕部分植物可能具备智力这一核心展开，既提出观点，又用实验和实例佐证，所以“Some plants might be intelligent(有些植物或许具备智慧。)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 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。 If you travel to nearly any Chinese city in the summertime, you will see people, mostly men wearing T-shirts, sitting out on the sidewalks on low chairs in the shade, playing a game with large round disks of wood. ____36____ Xiangqi dates back as early as the Warring States period. While experts have different opinions as to who created Niangqi and how it is linked to Western chess, there is no doubt that by the Tang Dynasty Xiangqi was a popular game in China. ____37____ And in the 20th century both Sun Yat-sen and Zhou Enlai were big fans of the game. And, though it may look quite a bit different than Western chess, Xiangqi is actually quite similar in what the pieces can do and how the game is played. Like Western chess, the object of the game is to capture the other player’s “king”. Actually, in Xiangqi he is just a general. ____38____ Another big difference between Western chess and Xiangqi is that there is a large empty space in the middle of the board, which the elephants cannot cross. ____39____ This space refers to an area in China where Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had a life-or-death war. The war was so influential that “the Chu River and the Han Boundary” has become a metaphor (隐喻) referring to any boundary between two opposing armies. When the Chinese people today see this name on the board, the battle scenes come to their mind, as though they are surrounded by thick smoke, able to hear the beating of war drums. ____40____ . A. Unlike Western chess, the pieces are placed on the intersections of lines, not in squares. B. During the Qing Dynasty its popularity grew. C. It is called “the Chu River and the Han Boundary”. D. The game is called Niangqi, a game of ordinary people. E. There are many differences between Xianggi and Western chess. F. An intense battle is about to take place on this small chessboard. G. Several sayings related to Yiangqi are in common use in China today. 【答案】36. D 37. B 38. A 39. C 40. F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了中国的象棋。 【36题详解】 根据上文“If you travel to nearly any Chinese city in the summertime, you will see people, mostly men wearing T-shirts, sitting out on the sidewalks on low chairs in the shade, playing a game with large round disks of wood.(如果你在夏天去中国的任何一个城市旅行，你会看到人们，大多数是穿着 T 恤的男人，坐在人行道上的阴凉处的矮椅子上，用大圆盘木头玩游戏)”描述了下象棋的景象，下文“Xiangqi dates back as early as the Warring States period.(象棋的历史可以追溯到战国)”介绍象棋可以追溯到战国时代，所以空处应该指出这个游戏是象棋，D项“这个游戏叫象棋，一个普通人的游戏”符合逻辑关系。故选D。 【37题详解】 根据上文“Xiangqi dates back as early as the Warring States period. While experts have different opinions as to who created Xiangqi and how it is linked to Western chess, there is no doubt that by the Tang Dynasty Xiangqi was a popular game in China.(象棋的历史可以追溯到战国。虽然专家们对象棋的创造者以及它与西洋象棋的联系有不同的看法，但毫无疑问，到了唐代，象棋在中国已经成为一种流行的游戏)”介绍象棋在中国历史悠久，很受欢迎。这里是按时间顺序：战国时期—唐朝，所以空处应该按照时间讲唐朝之后的一个时期，象棋的发展情形。B项“在清朝时期，它的知名度增加了”符合时间逻辑关系。故选B。 【38题详解】 上一段“And, though it may look quite a bit different than Western chess, Xiangqi is actually quite similar in what the pieces can do and how the game is played. Like Western chess, the object of the game is to capture the other player’s ‘king’. Actually, in Xiangqi he is just a general.(尽管象棋看起来与西方国际象棋有很大的不同，但在棋子的功能和游戏方式方面，象棋实际上非常相似。就像西洋象棋，游戏的目标是抓住其他玩家的‘王’。其实，在象棋里他只是个将军)”说明了中国象棋与西方象棋的相似之处，由下文“Another big difference between Western chess and Xiangqi is that there is a large empty space in the middle of the board, which the elephants cannot cross. (西洋象棋和象棋的另一个很大的不同是，棋盘中间有一个很大的空地，象不能越过的。)”可知设空处应该阐述西洋象棋和象棋的一个不同之处，A选项“与西方国际象棋不同的是，棋子不是放在方格里，而是放在线的交叉点上”符合语意。故选A。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Unlike Western chess, instead of placing the pieces in squares, the pieces are placed on the intersections of lines. Another big difference between Western chess and Xiangqi is that there is a large empty space in the middle of the board, which the elephants cannot cross.(与西方国际象棋不同，棋子不是放在正方形中，而是放在直线的交叉点上。象棋和西洋象棋的另一大区别是棋盘中间有一大块空白，象无法通过)”提到中国象棋中有个空间是象不能越过的；下文“This space refers to an area in China where Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had a life-or-death war. 这个空间指的是中国的一个地区，刘邦和项羽在那里进行了一场生死战)”提到这个空间就是刘邦和项羽打生死战的地方，所以空处应是对这个空间进行定义，C项“它被称为“楚河汉界””符合逻辑。故选C。 【40题详解】 根据上文“The war was so influential that “the Chu River and the Han Boundary” has become a metaphor (隐喻) referring to any boundary between two opposing armies. When the Chinese people today see this name on the board, the battle scenes come to their mind, as though they are surrounded by thick smoke, able to hear the beating of war drums.(这场战争的影响是如此之大，以至于“楚汉边界”已经成为一个隐喻，指的是两个敌对军队之间的任何边界。当今天的中国人看到这个名字在黑板上，战斗的画面浮现在他们的脑海中，仿佛被浓烟包围，能够听到战鼓的敲击声)”提到楚河汉界是一种隐喻，因此下象棋时棋盘也是个战场，人们看到这个名字就好像沉浸在硝烟四起、战鼓喧天的战争场面。F项“一场激烈的战斗即将在这个小棋盘上进行”符合逻辑。故选F。 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In a small village nestled at the foot of a towering mountain lived a young woman named Maya.

These days I could barely get out of bed. I was still recovering from an operation. I hoped for strength and happiness, but the future seemed so hopeless. Suddenly, Harry jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to our courtyard. Sure enough, there was a white dove (鸽子) seated in a rubber tree. It sat there for a few moments, and then flew away. Strange, I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before. When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying sticks. “Look, Harry,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on top of the rubber tree. Harry could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door, talking to the birds while they worked. His happiness was influential. As much as I was sad, I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too. Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was safe enough for a nest, but the rubber tree’s thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs (细枝) break apart. I surveyed the damage. Nothing good ever lasted. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pile of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from the beginning. Again, though, the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they started again, as if nothing had happened. 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。 Moved by their perseverance, I decided to build a new nest for the doves. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Look! The birds are back!” Harry announced with excitement. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 （181） Moved by their perseverance, I decided to build a new nest for the doves. I searched through the garage, gathering materials like twigs, small pieces of cloth, and some soft hay. Harry joined me, his eyes shining with excitement. Together, we carefully crafted a sturdy nest, making sure it was secure and comfortable. As we worked, I couldn’t help but think about how these little birds had brought so much hope and joy into our lives. Once the nest was done, I used a long pole to place it high in the rubber tree, praying that the doves would accept our offering. “Look! The birds are back!” Harry announced with excitement. I rushed to the window and saw the doves sitting in the new nest. They cooed softly, as if expressing their gratitude. Harry jumped up and down, clapping his hands. “They like it, Mama! They like it!” he exclaimed. I smiled and hugged him, feeling a warm sense of satisfaction. I realized that even in the face of difficulties, a little act of kindness could make a big difference. These doves had not only found a safe home but also taught Harry and me the beauty of giving and the rewards of perseverance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了作者在手术后身体不适、心情低落时，与四岁的儿子哈利一起观察到一对鸽子在院子里的橡胶树上筑巢。尽管鸟巢两次被大风摧毁，但鸽子们坚持不懈。作者被鸽子的毅力打动，与哈利一起为它们制作了一个坚固的新巢。鸽子接受了新巢，这让哈利非常兴奋，作者也从中感受到了善意的力量，认识到即使面对困难，小小的善举也能带来很大的改变，同时鸽子也教会了作者和哈利给予的美好以及坚持的意义。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我被它们的毅力所感动，决定为它们建一个新巢。”可知，第一段可描写作者和儿子一起为鸽子重建新巢的过程。 ②由第二段首句内容““看！鸟儿回来了！”哈利兴奋地宣布。”可知，第二段可描写鸽子飞进新巢后儿子很兴奋以及作者的感受。 2.续写线索：决定建一个新巢——重建新巢的过程——期待鸽子回巢——鸽子飞进新巢——儿子很是兴奋——作者的感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①搜寻：searched /looked for ②.大叫道：exclaimed/ shouted ③.拥抱：hugged/ embraced 情绪类 ①.快乐：joy/ delight ②.感激之情：gratitude/ appreciation 【点睛】[高分句型1].

Let’s take a closer look at these cultural elements and the real-life prototypes(原型) that inspired them. Seven-colored lotus In Ne Zha 2, the seven-colored lotus plays a critical role in reconstructing the bodies of the heroes, Ne Zha and Ao Bing. This concept is inspired by the Boshan censer(香炉), a 2,000-year-old bronze burner housed at the Hebei Museum. Barrier beasts If you’ve seen both Ne Zha films, you’re sure to remember the lovely and charming barrier beasts—funny creatures that serve as guardians. These creatures bear a striking similarity to ancient relics from the Sanxingdui culture. Tianyuan tripod The Tianyuan tripod in the film is a key tool in the Jade Xu Palace. Its design draws inspiration from the bronze tripods used during the Shang and Zhou dynasties. The tripod was a symbol of power and status in ancient China, often used in ceremonies. Jade Xu Palace When Ne Zha travels to the Jade Xu Palace, a group of birds flies in the sky, with two of them landing on the palace roof. This scene is inspired by the famous painting “Ruihe Tu” by Emperor Huizong of the Song Dynasty (Zhao Ji). Emperor Huizong painted this scene on silk, symbolizing his blessing for the country and its people. 21. What inspired the design of the seven-colored lotus in Ne Zha 2? A. The painting Ruihe Tu. B. Sanxingdui cultural relics. C. Bronze tripods in the Shang and Zhou dynasties. D. The Boshan censer from the Hebei Museum. 22. What does the tripod represent in ancient China? A. Artistic creativity.

A travel guide. B Jennifer Keelan was a young girl who had dreams of one day attending college and living a satisfactory life. At age 2, Jennifer was diagnosed with cerebral palsy (脑瘫), leaving her using a wheelchair. Jennifer was a bright and courageous girl, but when she attempted to attend school with her friends, she was sent to separate classes for students with disabilities, regardless of talent. She found herself unable to attend some school functions, use transit systems and access government buildings. Jennifer accepted the limitations of her physical life, but not the limitations of the physical world around her. Jennifer became active in campaigning for the Americans with Disabilities Act. She engaged in peaceful protests and, at age 7, was arrested in Montreal, a moment in history that shocked North America. At age 8, Jennifer traveled to Washington, D.C. The shy, yet determined little girl caught the attention of the country when she climbed up the Capitol steps. It worked. Jennifer met with Congress, and President George H. W. Bush signed the Americans with Disabilities Act into law. Jennifer remains an activist today, making sure all people with disabilities are treated fairly and have equal access to public places, schools and businesses. The only barriers that remain are those of view. Jennifer wants all of us to know that physical disabilities are not a barrier to friendship, career opportunities or love. She graduated from Arizona State University with a degree in family and human development. She is now 39 years old and still sharing the message of inclusivity (包容性) . For her, like all of us, making a difference begins one step at a time, no matter how hard it is. She remains a lifelong activist for the disability rights movement. 24. What prevented Jennifer studying with her friends? A. Her serious illness. B. Her low intelligence. C. Her born language barrier. D. Her poor learning ability. 25. What made North America amazed about Jennifer? A. Her helping the disabled. B. Her being sent to prison. C. Her entering the Capitol alone. D. Her being elected as president. 26. What happened due to Jennifer’s effort? A. The law of the United State changed a lot. B. Bush met the representatives of the disabled. C. Arizona State University accepted the disabled. D. The Americans with Disabilities Act was signed. 27. What is the best title of this text? A. A Girl Managed to Enter the Congress B. A Girl Makes a Difference to the Country C. A Girl Succeeded in Attending the College D. A Girl Struggles for the Rights of the Disabled C Sometimes a stranger can significantly improve our day. A pleasant encounter with someone we don’t know, even a nonverbal exchange, can comfort us when no one else is around. It may get us out of our own heads — a proven mood booster — and help broaden our perspective. “People feel more connected when they talk to strangers, like they are part of something bıgger,” says Gillian Sandstrom, a psychologist and senior lecturer at the University of Essex who studies interactions between strangers. In research studies, Sandstrom has found that people’s moods improve after they have a conversation with a stranger — say, a Starbucks barista, a volunteer at a museum, or the person next to them in line. Overall, people report that they are happier on days when they have more interactions with acquaintances (泛泛之交) they don’t know well. And yet most of us resist talking to people we don’t know or barely know. We feel upset about the mechanics of the conversation — how to start, maintain, or stop it. We think we will blather on and disclose too much, or not talk enough. We worry we will bore the other person. We’re typically wrong. Sandstrom’s research shows that people underestımate how much another person will like them when they talk for the first time. In a study in which she asked participants to talk to at least one stranger a day for five days, 99 percent said they had found at least one of the exchanges pleasantly surprising, 82 percent said they’d learned something from one of the strangers, 43 percent had exchanged contact information, and 40 percent had communicated with one of the strangers again. Scientists believe there may be an ancient reason why humans are able to enjoy interacting with strangers. To survive as a species, we need to mate outside our own gene pool, so we may have evolved to have both the social skills and the motivation to be with people who are not in our tribe. You don’t even have to talk to complete strangers to reap the benefits. Multiple studies show that people who interact regularly with passing acquaintances or who engage with others through community groups, religious gatherings, or volunteer opportunities have better emotional and physical health and live longer than those who do not. 28. According to the passage, most people are ______ to talk with strangers. A. comfortable B. eager C. unwilling D. disappointed 29. The figures in paragraph 5 are meant to illustrate that ______. A. people feel better than expected after talking with strangers B. people may disclose too much if they communicate with strangers C. people should leave a good impression while talking with strangers D. people underestimate their ability to start a conversation with strangers 30. According to the passage, which statement are scientists most likely to agree with? A. Our social skills are declining with evolution. B. We enjoy interacting with strangers by nature. C. We prefer to communicate with strangers non-verbally. D. Our motivation to interact with strangers varies across cultures. 31. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage? A. Strangers are kinder than we think. B. Random interactions can be meaningful. C. We should be careful when talking with strangers. D. Interactions with acquaintances may not benefit us. D Plants are not only living things; researchers say they also possess a form of intelligence. New research shows plants like goldenrods (麒麟草) are “smart enough” to detect other nearby plants without ever making contact. They are also smart enough to adapt to threatening situations, such as herbivores (草食动物) eating them. Some people try to define intelligence as having a central nervous system, where electrical signals pass along messages to other nerves to process information. Plants do not have a brain like humans. Now, the study authors propose a new definition of intelligence. Instead of focusing on signs of electrical signaling in a plant, the team focused on how that signaling helps a plant process environmental cues. Specifically, the team looked for evidence of problem-solving as a sign of intelligence. Goldenrods were the plants researchers chose to observe in this study. The team previously looked at how goldenrods responded when eaten by pests like the leaf beetle larvae. To protect themselves from being eaten, goldenrods release a chemical that tricks the insect into thinking the plant is damaged and would not make a good meal. The chemical compounds are also picked up by nearby goldenrod plants, allowing them to mount their defenses against the herbivore. While some goldenrods might have some damage, this quick thinking reduces the risk of being completely eaten alive. Instead, goldenrods distribute the damage by tricking the beetle larvae into moving on to another plant. Previous research has shown that neighboring plants that detect goldenrods eaten by herbivores adapt to the situation by growing faster and making more defensive compounds to fight off pests. When there are no neighbors nearby to warn them of a potential threat, the plants do not engage in accelerated growth, and the chemical response they send out is different. Additionally, goldenrods detect chemicals released from pests and use them as cues for a threat that could potentially attack them. 32. Which question must the study authors answer to figure out whether a plant is intelligent? A. Is it able to solve a problem? B. Does it have a nervous system? C. Can it send electrical signals? D. Has it drawn people’s attention? 33. How do goldenrods protect themselves from being eaten? A. By growing taller than other plants. B. By producing poisonous fruits right away. C. By sending out chemicals to cheat herbivores. D. By turning to the surrounding plants. 34. How is the last paragraph mainly developed? A. By making a conclusion. B. By making a comparison. C. By explaining two professional processes. D. By stating small weaknesses of previous studies. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Some plants might be intelligent B. Approaches to improve the health of plants C. Plants’ reactions to artificial elements D. Studies on plants’ resistance of illnesses 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。 If you travel to nearly any Chinese city in the summertime, you will see people, mostly men wearing T-shirts, sitting out on the sidewalks on low chairs in the shade, playing a game with large round disks of wood. ____36____ Xiangqi dates back as early as the Warring States period. While experts have different opinions as to who created Niangqi and how it is linked to Western chess, there is no doubt that by the Tang Dynasty Xiangqi was a popular game in China. ____37____ And in the 20th century both Sun Yat-sen and Zhou Enlai were big fans of the game. And, though it may look quite a bit different than Western chess, Xiangqi is actually quite similar in what the pieces can do and how the game is played. Like Western chess, the object of the game is to capture the other player’s “king”. Actually, in Xiangqi he is just a general. ____38____ Another big difference between Western chess and Xiangqi is that there is a large empty space in the middle of the board, which the elephants cannot cross. ____39____ This space refers to an area in China where Liu Bang and Xiang Yu had a life-or-death war. The war was so influential that “the Chu River and the Han Boundary” has become a metaphor (隐喻) referring to any boundary between two opposing armies. When the Chinese people today see this name on the board, the battle scenes come to their mind, as though they are surrounded by thick smoke, able to hear the beating of war drums. ____40____ . A. Unlike Western chess, the pieces are placed on the intersections of lines, not in squares. B. During the Qing Dynasty its popularity grew. C. It is called “the Chu River and the Han Boundary”. D. The game is called Niangqi, a game of ordinary people. E. There are many differences between Xianggi and Western chess. F. An intense battle is about to take place on this small chessboard. G. Several sayings related to Yiangqi are in common use in China today. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 In a small village nestled at the foot of a towering mountain lived a young woman named Maya.

These days I could barely get out of bed. I was still recovering from an operation. I hoped for strength and happiness, but the future seemed so hopeless. Suddenly, Harry jumped up from his spot on the kitchen floor. “Bird!” he shouted, rushing to our courtyard. Sure enough, there was a white dove (鸽子) seated in a rubber tree. It sat there for a few moments, and then flew away. Strange, I’d never seen one in our neighborhood before. When I dragged myself to the kitchen the next morning, the dove was back. This time it was with a mate carrying sticks. “Look, Harry,” I said, pointing to the tree. “They’re going to make a nest.” The doves flew in and out of the courtyard all week, building on top of the rubber tree. Harry could hardly contain his excitement. Every morning, he’d run into the kitchen and take his spot by the sliding glass door, talking to the birds while they worked. His happiness was influential. As much as I was sad, I couldn’t help but look forward to the doves’ visits too. Then it all went wrong. The courtyard was safe enough for a nest, but the rubber tree’s thin leaves were far from stable. One night, a strong wind blew, throwing the doves’ nest to the ground. I heard the twigs (细枝) break apart. I surveyed the damage. Nothing good ever lasted. I wouldn’t blame the doves if they never came back. But they returned. And they paid no attention to the pile of sticks that had once been their nest. They started again from the beginning. Again, though, the wind destroyed all their hard work. The next day, and the next, they started again, as if nothing had happened. 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。 Moved by their perseverance, I decided to build a new nest for the doves. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ “Look!
