Twenty-two years ago, I went to London on a special mission — talking about establishing a museum to celebrate the founder of genetics, Gregor Mendel. Suddenly, someone came in and told me I had won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine jointly with Tim and Leland Hartwell, for our work on how cells control their division.
Suddenly you become a public character being asked to do all sorts of things: to give lectures, to sit on committees and reviews you are not always well qualified to be on. A big problem is that people think you have something sensible to say about nearly everything. Over time, a potential red flag is that you start to believe that perhaps you do know about nearly everything. This is a disease I’ve called “Nobelitis”, which I sincerely hope I have managed to avoid.
Within a year of getting the prize, I was offered and accepted the Presidency of Rockefeller University in New York. The Royal Society, the UK’s national academy of sciences, elected me president. The society traditionally elects accomplished researchers, which greatly helps it to be taken seriously when it gives scientific advice. Meanwhile, I became director of the Francis Crick Institute.
What about my research after the prize? Doing high-quality science depends on high-quality researchers. When you are young and are starting a new field, it’s not difficult to attract very good research colleagues because people like working with new researchers in exciting areas, but as you get older that can become more difficult. Having a Nobel Prize does help. I’ve just started three excellent new PhD students. It’s a privilege for me to be able to pursue curiosity-driven research at this late stage of my career.
Anyway, one thing I am glad to say that the Nobel Prize did not influence was peer review from my fellow scientists, responsible for assessing the suitability of my own research for publication, and my funding applications. My rejection rates have remained essentially the same before and after the prize. And that, of course, is exactly how it should be.
24. What was the author’s original aim of visiting London 22 years ago?
A. To honor a pioneer in science. B. To attend Nobel Prize ceremony.
C. To promote the author’s work on cells. D. To show gratitude to the author’s colleagues.
25. Which of the following can best explain “Nobelitis”?
A. A burning desire to win a Nobel Prize.
B. Being addicted to being a public character.
C. A Nobel Prize winner acting as a “Mr. Know-all”.
D. Being overconfident in a particular research field.
26. What do paragraph 3 and 4 mainly talk about?
A. How the author contributed to various institutes.
B. How the author balanced leadership and research.
C. How the Nobel Prize impacted the author’s career.
D. How the Nobel Prize enhanced the author’s reputation.
27. What does the author take comfort in after winning the Nobel Prize?
A. The ever-increasing public recognition. B. The objective and fair evaluation from peers.
C. The closer cooperation with fellow scientists. D. The easier accessibility of funding opportunities.
C
The interplay between literature and scientific research has been evident throughout history. At a surface level, literature often anticipates future scientific developments, and science, in turn, provides a rich source of inspiration for literary creation. However, the interaction between these two goes beyond mere creativity; it invites deeper thoughts on the ethical (道德的) and philosophical impacts of technological advancements.
For instance, science fiction works like Isaac Asimov’s I, Robot play a direct role in shaping and inspiring the development of artificial intelligence (AI). This book pictures a future where robots coexist with humans and are governed by the “Three Laws of Robotics”. These laws not only influence the real-world AI research but also become a cornerstone in the debate surrounding AI ethics. These fictional laws provide more than just a blueprint for scientists; they serve as a bridge, making complex technological issues easier for the public to grasp.
Yet, the influence of literature on science extends even further. Take Liu Cixin’s The Three-Body Problem as an example. The scientists in this fiction are not merely pioneers of scientific breakthroughs — they also represent the difficult choices and inner conflicts that humanity faces. Through their struggles, Liu presents a profound question: As science pushes us into new territory, are we truly prepared to bear the responsibility for the unforeseen impacts of technological advancements in the future?
The true value of literature in relation to science is its ability to stir the pot. It not only question what we can achieve through science but also whether we should pursue these achievements. While science focuses on problem-solving and innovation, literature makes us consider the broader influence on nature and society, ensuring our progress is guided by wisdom, understanding, and humanity.
28. What do we know about I, Robot?
A. It instructs scientists in detail. B. It boosts research on bridges.
C. It facilitates public access to science. D. It sets laws for robots in the real world.
29. Why does the author mention The Three-Body Problem?
A. To point out the complexity of science.
B. To warn about the dangers of technology.
C. To show literature’s moral concerns about science.
D. To suggest literature’s direct influence on innovation.
30. What do the underlined words “stir the pot” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Explore and explain. B. Challenge and reflect.
C. Assume and examine. D. Educate and entertain.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Science: the Blueprint of Literature B. Science: a Whisper in Literature’s Ear
C. Literature: a Critical Insight into Science D. Literature: the Gateway to Scientific Ideas
D
For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. Phrases like “digital burnout” and “attention recession (注意力衰退)” have entered mainstream discourse. According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity.
This raises a pressing question: if users are increasingly aware of the psychological costs of infinite scrolling, why do brands push harder to capture attention? The uncomfortable truth lies in advertising’s economic function. While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. Thus, what began as a debate about technology has unavoidably become a conversation about marketing issues.
Yet the previous data shows this strategy is backfiring. Kantar’s Media Reactions study reveals a sharp decline in people saying social media ads capture their attention. In other words, brands are paying more for less effective engagement. Under such circumstances, some forward-thinking brands are choosing another way. Heineken, a Dutch beer brand, for instance, launched a “Boring Phone” campaign to encourage presence over scrolling. Similarly, Bottega Veneta, an Italian luxury fashion brand, made headlines by deactivating its social media accounts, redirecting focus toward craftsmanship, physical exhibitions, and cultural dialogue. These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it.
So where does this leave us? Young people say the always-on model is breaking them. Parents and regulators are desperate for solutions. The central question is no longer whether the attention economy carries consequences, but whether the market will lead a voluntary transformation or await imposed (强制的) force.
32. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph?
A. Public reaction to excessive screen time. B. The mental harm caused by social media.
C. Professional warnings against screen overuse. D. The pressure on digital apps to improve service.
33. Why do brands persist in aggressive digital engagement?
A. Regulators demand more online content. B. Policymakers desire efficient user response.
C. Users’ resistance is considered insignificant. D. Brands regard users’ attention as profitable.
34. How did some forward-thinking brands address the challenge?
A. By prioritizing care for users’ attention. B. By refusing to update any digital output.
C. By expanding their social media presence. D. By launching digital advertising campaigns.
35. What does the author expect for the future of the attention economy?
A. The attention-based industry will soon collapse.
B. The transformation will take place in any case.
C. Brands will further maximize attention capture.
D. Regulatory measures will ultimately force changes.

Interrupting another person’s sentence is normally considered as undesirable. However, it is not always equally impolite. In addition to the hostile (敌意的) takeover of the sentence, which serves to dominate, there are also friendly, even positive interruptions. 36 And it can give a conversation momentum (动力). Over 30 years ago, communication scientist Julia A. Goldberg at the University of Wyoming categorized interruptions into three types — bad, good and neutral.
An interruption in the sense of gaining power almost always happens in front of an audience. And this is precisely the type of interruption that men tend to use. Sociologists from Princeton University found that the larger a group is, the more likely it is that men will take the floor. 37 This is because “speaking time also has an influence on dominance”, says Kothoff.
38 These interruptions can be used to express interest, for example by asking a quick question (“Do you mean Mina from 9b?”), commenting on something quickly (“How exciting!”) or making approving humming noises (“Mmm”). 39 The person speaking feels even more heard and there is a resonance (共鸣) between the two.
“Of course, even mild interruptions can be unpleasant for the person being interrupted,” according to communication trainer Jorg Abromeit. For example, when someone asks a question just as the speaker is about to expand on the important part of their message. Asking questions too quickly and too often can also be annoying. The situation is similar with the third group of interruptions, neutral interruptions. They have no deeper meaning. 40
Therefore, the key to a successful interruption lies not in the act itself, but in the intention behind it and how it makes the other person feel.
A. Conversations between people are true works of art.
B. Being interrupted while speaking is a common thing to experience.
C. The second type of interruptions, on the other hand, consolidate a relationship.
D. They are neither about power nor about relationship.
E. And the more powerful men are, the longer they speak.
F. This signals to the other person that you are involved and emotionally engaged.
G. Interrupting can also be helpful and highly appreciative.

She was in deep water and seemed to be holding on to a life jacket. Getting closer, he was 44 to see that the girl was actually grasping the foot of another girl.
“My God!” thought Bell, “She’s 45 !” Instinctively, he grabbed the arms of the girl in the deep water, trying to pull her up and into his boat.

There, he managed to get her onto the deck as her 48 friend grabbed on to the side of the boat.

Finally, she opened her eyes. She’s 53 ! He thought, watching her face transform from blue to purple to pale. Soon, she was 54 to the hospital and released later that day.

The art of Chinese calligraphy has been regarded not just as a visual art but as a reflection of one’s character and cultivation. It was believed that we could judge a person’s integrity and wisdom by 56 naturally flows from their brush. When 57 (evaluate) calligraphy, experts look for “spirit resonance” (气韵) — a quality extremely difficult to define, yet instantly recognizable to the 58 (train) eye. It is this pursuit of spiritual expression that lifts calligraphy to a high art form.
This philosophical depth is evident in the works of Wang Xizhi, 59 calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, whose masterpiece “Lantingji Xu” 60 (celebrate) for centuries as the “world’s best running script,” not only for its artistic excellence but also for the philosophy it 61 (contain). The preface (序言) is a beautiful essay reflecting on the passing nature of life and the joy of friendship.

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
When Ms Carter led Mia into our classroom, the room fell quiet. With her hair tied loosely and a blue backpack held tight, she stood frozen by the door, eyes looking around like a lost bird. “This is our exchange student from Sweden,” Ms Carter said. “Hello,” Mia said. Her voice was so soft that I emptied the seat behind me, and I noticed her shaking hands as she pulled out a notebook.
The first sign of trouble came at lunch. I saw Mia staring at her tray (碟) of spicy noodles, fork in hand uselessly. When I waved her over, she shook her head, forcing a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. Later, during group work, we tried to include her, but her broken English got confusing. “I … I don’t know the word,” she whispered, cheeks burning. That afternoon, I passed the library and saw her sitting alone, looking through photos on her phone — tears on her cheeks. My heart ached. I knew that lonely, out-of-place feeling.
By the end of the week, Mia still hadn’t spoken much. She ate alone, kept her head down in class, and avoided the playground during breaks. My deskmate Lily talked to me one morning. “She looks so sad,” she said. “We have to do something.” I thought about how scared I’d been when I moved to this school last year — how a single kind word had made all the difference. Mia’s silence wasn’t shyness; it was fear of being invisible.
One day, I accidentally knocked over her water bottle. As I helped clean it up, I noticed her notebook was filled with English words scrawled (潦草地写) over and over. “You’re working really hard,” I said. She looked up, surprised, and then nodded. “It’s so hard,” she admitted, voice breaking. “I miss my mom. Everything here is ... too much.” I held her hand gently, promising we’d help. Her eyes welled up, and she quickly wiped them away, saying “Thank you.”
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。
Lily and I brainstormed plans to make Mia feel welcome. __________________________________________

Twenty-two years ago, I went to London on a special mission — talking about establishing a museum to celebrate the founder of genetics, Gregor Mendel. Suddenly, someone came in and told me I had won the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine jointly with Tim and Leland Hartwell, for our work on how cells control their division.
Suddenly you become a public character being asked to do all sorts of things: to give lectures, to sit on committees and reviews you are not always well qualified to be on. A big problem is that people think you have something sensible to say about nearly everything. Over time, a potential red flag is that you start to believe that perhaps you do know about nearly everything. This is a disease I’ve called “Nobelitis”, which I sincerely hope I have managed to avoid.
Within a year of getting the prize, I was offered and accepted the Presidency of Rockefeller University in New York. The Royal Society, the UK’s national academy of sciences, elected me president. The society traditionally elects accomplished researchers, which greatly helps it to be taken seriously when it gives scientific advice. Meanwhile, I became director of the Francis Crick Institute.
What about my research after the prize? Doing high-quality science depends on high-quality researchers. When you are young and are starting a new field, it’s not difficult to attract very good research colleagues because people like working with new researchers in exciting areas, but as you get older that can become more difficult. Having a Nobel Prize does help. I’ve just started three excellent new PhD students. It’s a privilege for me to be able to pursue curiosity-driven research at this late stage of my career.
Anyway, one thing I am glad to say that the Nobel Prize did not influence was peer review from my fellow scientists, responsible for assessing the suitability of my own research for publication, and my funding applications. My rejection rates have remained essentially the same before and after the prize. And that, of course, is exactly how it should be.
24. What was the author’s original aim of visiting London 22 years ago?
A. To honor a pioneer in science. B. To attend Nobel Prize ceremony.
C. To promote the author’s work on cells. D. To show gratitude to the author’s colleagues.
25. Which of the following can best explain “Nobelitis”?
A. A burning desire to win a Nobel Prize.
B. Being addicted to being a public character.
C. A Nobel Prize winner acting as a “Mr. Know-all”.
D. Being overconfident in a particular research field.
26. What do paragraph 3 and 4 mainly talk about?
A. How the author contributed to various institutes.
B. How the author balanced leadership and research.
C. How the Nobel Prize impacted the author’s career.
D. How the Nobel Prize enhanced the author’s reputation.
27. What does the author take comfort in after winning the Nobel Prize?
A. The ever-increasing public recognition. B. The objective and fair evaluation from peers.
C. The closer cooperation with fellow scientists. D. The easier accessibility of funding opportunities.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. C 27. B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章是作者对自己获得诺贝尔奖后生活、工作变化的回顾与思考。
24. 细节理解题。根据第一段的句子“Twenty-two years ago, I went to London on a special mission— talking about establishing a museum to celebrate the founder of genetics, Gregor Mendel.(22年前,我带着一项特殊任务去了伦敦——讨论建立一个博物馆来纪念遗传学创始人格雷戈尔·孟德尔)”可知,作者去伦敦的初衷是为了讨论建立一个博物馆以纪念遗传学的创始人孟德尔。故选A项。
25. 词句猜测题。根据第二段的句子“A big problem is that people think you have something sensible to say about nearly everything. Over time, a potential red flag is that you start to believe that perhaps you do know about nearly everything. This is a disease I’ve called ‘Nobelitis’(一个大问题是,人们认为你对几乎所有事情都有明智的看法。随着时间的推移,一个潜在的危险信号是,你开始相信也许你知道几乎所有的事情。这是一种我称之为“Nobelitis”的疾病)”可知,“Nobelitis”指的是诺贝尔奖得主开始相信自己对几乎所有事情都了如指掌,即表现出一种“万事通”的姿态。故选C项。
26. 主旨大意题。根据第三段中“Within a year of getting the prize, I was offered and accepted the Presidency of Rockefeller University in New York. The Royal Society, the UK’s national academy of sciences, elected me president. (获奖后不到一年,我就被邀请担任纽约洛克菲勒大学的校长。英国国家科学院皇家学会选举我为主席)”和第四段中“I’ve just started three excellent new PhD students. It’s a privilege for me to be able to pursue curiosity-driven research at this late stage of my career.(我刚培养了三位优秀的博士生。在我职业生涯的最后阶段,能够追求好奇心驱动的研究对我来说是一种荣幸)”可知,第三、四段主要讲述诺贝尔奖如何影响了作者的职业生涯。故选C项。
27. 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Anyway, one thing I am glad to say that the Nobel Prize did not influence was peer review from my fellow scientists, responsible for assessing the suitability of my own research for publication, and my funding applications. My rejection rates have remained essentially the same before and after the prize. And that, of course, is exactly how it should be.(无论如何,有一件事我很高兴地说,诺贝尔奖没有影响到我的同行科学家的同行评议,他们负责评估我自己的研究是否适合发表,以及我的资助申请。获奖前后,我的拒稿率基本保持不变。当然,这正是它应该有的样子)”可知,作者在获得诺贝尔奖后,同行对其研究的评价和资金申请的拒绝率基本保持不变,作者对此感到欣慰。这表明作者对同行的客观和公正评价感到满意。故选B项。
C
The interplay between literature and scientific research has been evident throughout history. At a surface level, literature often anticipates future scientific developments, and science, in turn, provides a rich source of inspiration for literary creation. However, the interaction between these two goes beyond mere creativity; it invites deeper thoughts on the ethical (道德的) and philosophical impacts of technological advancements.
For instance, science fiction works like Isaac Asimov’s I, Robot play a direct role in shaping and inspiring the development of artificial intelligence (AI). This book pictures a future where robots coexist with humans and are governed by the “Three Laws of Robotics”. These laws not only influence the real-world AI research but also become a cornerstone in the debate surrounding AI ethics. These fictional laws provide more than just a blueprint for scientists; they serve as a bridge, making complex technological issues easier for the public to grasp.
Yet, the influence of literature on science extends even further. Take Liu Cixin’s The Three-Body Problem as an example. The scientists in this fiction are not merely pioneers of scientific breakthroughs — they also represent the difficult choices and inner conflicts that humanity faces. Through their struggles, Liu presents a profound question: As science pushes us into new territory, are we truly prepared to bear the responsibility for the unforeseen impacts of technological advancements in the future?
The true value of literature in relation to science is its ability to stir the pot. It not only question what we can achieve through science but also whether we should pursue these achievements. While science focuses on problem-solving and innovation, literature makes us consider the broader influence on nature and society, ensuring our progress is guided by wisdom, understanding, and humanity.
28. What do we know about I, Robot?
A. It instructs scientists in detail. B. It boosts research on bridges.
C. It facilitates public access to science. D. It sets laws for robots in the real world.
29. Why does the author mention The Three-Body Problem?
A. To point out the complexity of science.
B. To warn about the dangers of technology.
C. To show literature’s moral concerns about science.
D. To suggest literature’s direct influence on innovation.
30. What do the underlined words “stir the pot” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. Explore and explain. B. Challenge and reflect.
C. Assume and examine. D. Educate and entertain.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Science: the Blueprint of Literature B. Science: a Whisper in Literature’s Ear
C. Literature: a Critical Insight into Science D. Literature: the Gateway to Scientific Ideas
【答案】28. C 29. C 30. B 31. C
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章讨论了文学与科学研究之间由来已久的相互影响力,强调文学对科学的影响不仅在于预测未来。文章以《我,机器人》和《三体》为例,揭示文学的真正价值在于引发人类对技术进步的思考,思考其对自然和社会的影响,以确保科学探索之路始终拥有智慧、理解和人文主义这三盏指路明灯。
28. 细节理解题。根据第二段“These fictional laws provide more than just a blueprint for scientists; they serve as a bridge, making complex technological issues easier for the public to grasp.(这些虚构的定律为科学家们提供的不仅仅是一个蓝图;它们还充当了一座桥梁,让公众更容易理解复杂的技术问题) 可知,这本书促进公众获取科学。故选C。
29. 推理判断题。根据第三段“The scientists in this fiction are not merely pioneers of scientific breakthroughs — they also represent the difficult choices and inner conflicts that humanity faces. Through their struggles, Liu presents a profound question: As science pushes us into new territory, are we truly prepared to bear the responsibility for the unforeseen impacts of technological advancements in the future?(在这部小说里,科学家们不仅仅是科学突破的先驱者——他们还代表着人类所面临的艰难抉择和内心冲突。通过描写他们的挣扎,刘提出了一个深刻的问题:随着科学将我们推向新的领域,我们是否真的做好了准备,去承担未来技术进步所带来的那些难以预见的影响的责任呢?)”可推知,作者提及小说《三体》是为了展示文学作品对科学的道德关切。故选C。
30. 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“It not only question what we can achieve through science but also whether we should pursue these achievements. While science focuses on problem-solving and innovation, literature makes us consider the broader influence on nature and society, ensuring our progress is guided by wisdom, understanding, and humanity.(它不仅质疑我们通过科学能够取得什么样的成就,还质疑我们是否应该追求这些成就。虽然科学专注于解决问题和创新,但文学让我们思考其对自然和社会更广泛的影响,确保我们的进步是由智慧、理解和人性所引导的)”可知,文学相对于科学的真正价值在于它能提出质疑和让我们思考。由此可推测“stir the pot”意思是“挑战和反思”。故选B。
31. 主旨大意题。根据第一段中“However, the interaction between these two goes beyond d mere creativity; it invites deeper thoughts on the ethical (道德的) and philosophical impacts of techno logical advancements.(然而,这两者之间的互动不仅仅是创造力;它引发了对技术进步的伦理和哲学影响的更深层次的思考)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讲述了文学与科学研究之间的相互作用,文学不仅能预见未来科学发展,还能对科学技术进步带来的伦理和哲学影响进行深入思考,对科学进行批判性洞察。C选项“文学:对科学的批判性洞察”符合文章主旨,最适合作为文章的标题。故选C。
D
For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. Phrases like “digital burnout” and “attention recession (注意力衰退)” have entered mainstream discourse. According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity.
This raises a pressing question: if users are increasingly aware of the psychological costs of infinite scrolling, why do brands push harder to capture attention? The uncomfortable truth lies in advertising’s economic function. While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. Thus, what began as a debate about technology has unavoidably become a conversation about marketing issues.
Yet the previous data shows this strategy is backfiring. Kantar’s Media Reactions study reveals a sharp decline in people saying social media ads capture their attention. In other words, brands are paying more for less effective engagement. Under such circumstances, some forward-thinking brands are choosing another way. Heineken, a Dutch beer brand, for instance, launched a “Boring Phone” campaign to encourage presence over scrolling. Similarly, Bottega Veneta, an Italian luxury fashion brand, made headlines by deactivating its social media accounts, redirecting focus toward craftsmanship, physical exhibitions, and cultural dialogue. These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it.
So where does this leave us? Young people say the always-on model is breaking them. Parents and regulators are desperate for solutions. The central question is no longer whether the attention economy carries consequences, but whether the market will lead a voluntary transformation or await imposed (强制的) force.
32. What is mainly discussed in the first paragraph?
A. Public reaction to excessive screen time. B. The mental harm caused by social media.
C. Professional warnings against screen overuse. D. The pressure on digital apps to improve service.
33. Why do brands persist in aggressive digital engagement?
A. Regulators demand more online content. B. Policymakers desire efficient user response.
C. Users’ resistance is considered insignificant. D. Brands regard users’ attention as profitable.
34. How did some forward-thinking brands address the challenge?
A. By prioritizing care for users’ attention. B. By refusing to update any digital output.
C. By expanding their social media presence. D. By launching digital advertising campaigns.
35. What does the author expect for the future of the attention economy?
A. The attention-based industry will soon collapse.
B. The transformation will take place in any case.
C. Brands will further maximize attention capture.
D. Regulatory measures will ultimately force changes.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. A 35. B
【导语】本文主要讨论的是过度屏幕使用时间引发的公众反弹,以及品牌如何在注意力经济中从“最大化注意力”转向“尊重注意力”的转变趋势。
32. 主旨大意题。根据第一段“For years, experts have cautioned that excessive screen time wears away cognitive depth and sustained focus. Now, a cultural fightback is underway. (多年来,专家一直警告过度屏幕时间会削弱认知深度和持续专注力。如今,一场文化反击正在进行。)”以及“According to a Deloitte survey, nearly 25% of respondents deleted at least one social media app in the past year — a figure that rises to one-third among Generation Z, who cite mental health strain and the performative pressure of constant connectivity. (根据德勤一项调查显示,近25%的受访者在过去一年里卸载了至少一款社交媒体应用,在Z世代中这一比例升至三分之一,他们表示原因是心理健康压力和时刻在线的表演型压力。)”可知,第一段主要讨论的是公众对过度屏幕时间的反应。
33. 推理判断题。根据第二段“While advertising did not create the modern economy, it fuels its growth. Each paid impression sustains a system that regulators, parents and policymakers are now questioning. (令人不安的真相在于广告的经济功能。虽然广告没有创造现代经济,但它推动了经济增长。每一次付费展示都维持着一个如今受到监管者、家长和政策制定者质疑的系统。)”可知,品牌之所以坚持激进的数字互动,是因为它们将用户的注意力视为有利可图的商品。
34. 细节理解题。根据第三段“These aren’t anti-digital moves. They’re signals of a shift: from maximising attention to respecting it. (这些并非反数字化的举动。它们标志着一种转变:从最大化注意力到尊重注意力。)”可知,一些前瞻性品牌通过优先考虑对用户注意力的关怀来应对挑战。
35. 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The central question is no longer whether the attention economy carries consequences, but whether the market will lead a voluntary transformation or await imposed (强制的) force. (核心问题不再是注意力经济是否带来后果,而是市场是否会引领一场自愿的变革,还是等待强制力量的到来。)”可知,作者认为无论市场自愿变革还是等待强制力量,转变终究会发生。
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。
Interrupting another person’s sentence is normally considered as undesirable. However, it is not always equally impolite. In addition to the hostile (敌意的) takeover of the sentence, which serves to dominate, there are also friendly, even positive interruptions. 36 And it can give a conversation momentum (动力). Over 30 years ago, communication scientist Julia A. Goldberg at the University of Wyoming categorized interruptions into three types — bad, good and neutral.
An interruption in the sense of gaining power almost always happens in front of an audience. And this is precisely the type of interruption that men tend to use. Sociologists from Princeton University found that the larger a group is, the more likely it is that men will take the floor. 37 This is because “speaking time also has an influence on dominance”, says Kothoff.
38 These interruptions can be used to express interest, for example by asking a quick question (“Do you mean Mina from 9b?”), commenting on something quickly (“How exciting!”) or making approving humming noises (“Mmm”). 39 The person speaking feels even more heard and there is a resonance (共鸣) between the two.
“Of course, even mild interruptions can be unpleasant for the person being interrupted,” according to communication trainer Jorg Abromeit. For example, when someone asks a question just as the speaker is about to expand on the important part of their message. Asking questions too quickly and too often can also be annoying. The situation is similar with the third group of interruptions, neutral interruptions. They have no deeper meaning. 40
Therefore, the key to a successful interruption lies not in the act itself, but in the intention behind it and how it makes the other person feel.
A. Conversations between people are true works of art.
B. Being interrupted while speaking is a common thing to experience.
C. The second type of interruptions, on the other hand, consolidate a relationship.
D. They are neither about power nor about relationship.
E. And the more powerful men are, the longer they speak.
F. This signals to the other person that you are involved and emotionally engaged.
G. Interrupting can also be helpful and highly appreciative.
【答案】36. G 37. E 38. C 39. F 40. D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出打断他人话语不总是无礼的,存在友好积极的打断。科学家将打断分为坏、好、中立三类,阐述了各类打断的特点,表明成功的打断关键在于意图和给对方带来的感受。
36. 上文“However, it is not always equally impolite. In addition to the hostile takeover of the sentence, which serves to dominate, there are also friendly, even positive interruptions. (然而,这并不总是同样无礼的。除了为了控制而进行的敌意打断之外,还有一些友好甚至积极的打断。)”表明存在积极的打断这一情况;G选项“Interrupting can also be helpful and highly appreciative.(打断也可以是有帮助的、非常值得赞赏的。)”进一步阐述了打断的积极意义,与上文衔接紧密,符合题意。故选G。
37. 上文“Sociologists from Princeton University found that the larger a group is, the more likely it is that men will take the floor. (普林斯顿大学的社会学家发现,群体越大,男性就越有可能掌控话语权。)”指出了群体大小与男性掌控话语权的关系;E选项“And the more powerful men are, the longer they speak.(男性越有权势,他们说话的时间就越长。)”承接上文,进一步说明了有权势的男性与说话时间长短的关联,符合题意。故选E。
38. 根据后文“These interruptions can be used to express interest, for example by asking a quick question (“Do you mean Mina from 9b?”), commenting on something quickly (“How exciting!”) or making approving humming noises (“Mmm”).(这些打断行为可以用来表达兴趣,例如通过快速提出一个问题(“您指的是9b组的米娜吗?”)、迅速对某事发表评论(“太令人兴奋了!”)或者发出赞同的哼声(“嗯”)”可知,第一段提到Goldberg 将打断分为“坏、好、中性”三类,第二段已介绍“不好的打断(争夺权力)”,故此处应过渡到“好的打断”,本句需要对应“三类”的分类,又引出后文“表达兴趣、产生共鸣”等“好的打断”的作用。C选项“The second type of interruptions, on the other hand, consolidate a relationship. (另一方面,第二种打断巩固了一种关系。)”起到了承上启下的作用,引出下文对第二种打断的阐述,符合题意。故选C。
39. 根据上文“These interruptions can be used to express interest, for example by asking a quick question (“Do you mean Mina from 9b?”), commenting on something quickly (“How exciting!”) or making approving humming noises (“Mmm”).(这些打断行为可以用来表达兴趣,例如通过快速提出一个问题(“您指的是9b组的米娜吗?”)、迅速对某事发表评论(“太令人兴奋了!”)或者发出赞同的哼声(“嗯”))”列举了一些表达兴趣的打断方式;F选项“This signals to the other person that you are involved and emotionally engaged.(这向对方表明你参与其中并且在情感上投入了。)”解释了这些打断方式所传达的信号,即表明参与和情感投入,符合题意。故选F。
40. 上文“The situation is similar with the third group of interruptions, neutral interruptions. They have no deeper meaning. (第三种打断,即中立的打断,情况也类似。它们没有更深层的意义。)”说明了中立打断没有深层次的意义;D选项“They are neither about power nor about relationship.(它们既不关乎权力,也不关乎关系。)”进一步阐述了中立打断的特点,与上文内容相符,符合题意。故选D。

阅读下面短文,在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
The art of Chinese calligraphy has been regarded not just as a visual art but as a reflection of one’s character and cultivation. It was believed that we could judge a person’s integrity and wisdom by 56 naturally flows from their brush. When 57 (evaluate) calligraphy, experts look for “spirit resonance” (气韵) — a quality extremely difficult to define, yet instantly recognizable to the 58 (train) eye. It is this pursuit of spiritual expression that lifts calligraphy to a high art form.
This philosophical depth is evident in the works of Wang Xizhi, 59 calligrapher of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, whose masterpiece “Lantingji Xu” 60 (celebrate) for centuries as the “world’s best running script,” not only for its artistic excellence but also for the philosophy it 61 (contain). The preface (序言) is a beautiful essay reflecting on the passing nature of life and the joy of friendship. The original work is lost to history, 62 its aesthetic principles live on through countless copies.
Today, although typing has 63 (large) replaced handwriting in daily life, calligraphy is experiencing a revival. It serves as a balance to the digital world, offering 64 (individual) a way to slow down, focus their minds, and reconnect with their cultural heritage. What makes this art form enduring is how it transforms ink on paper 65 a living record of the human spirit.
【答案】56. what 57. evaluating 58. trained 59. a 60. has been celebrated 61. contains 62. but 63. largely 64. individuals 65. into
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍中国书法不仅是视觉艺术,更是个人品格与修养的体现,阐述了书法追求气韵、蕴含哲学深度,并以王羲之《兰亭集序》为例,说明书法在当代虽受打字冲击却依然复兴,成为连接人文精神与文化传承的重要艺术形式。
56. 考查宾语从句。句意:人们相信,我们可以通过一个人笔下自然流露出的东西来判断他的正直和智慧。空处引导宾语从句,从句缺少主语,指物,需用连接代词what引导。故填what。
57. 考查状语从句的省略。句意:在评价书法时,专家们寻找“气韵”——一种极难定义但训练有素的人一眼就能认出的品质。when引导的时间状语从句的主语和主句的主语一致,可以省略从句的主语和be动词,完整的从句是When (experts are) evaluating,省略主语和be动词,空处需用现在分词evaluating。故填evaluating。
58. 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。空处需填形容词作定语,修饰名词eye,trained意为“训练有素的”。故填trained。
59. 考查冠词。句意:这种哲学深度在东晋书法家王羲之的作品中显而易见,他的代表作《兰亭序》被誉为“天下第一行书”,不仅因其艺术造诣,更因其蕴含的哲学思想。calligrapher为可数名词,此处表示泛指,且发音以辅音音素开头,需用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
60. 考查动词时态语态和主谓一致。句意同上。设空处为从句谓语,根据时间状语“for centuries”可知,此处使用现在完成时,主语whose masterpiece “Lantingji Xu”和celebrate为被动关系,需用被动语态,主语为单数名词,助动词用has。故填has been celebrated。
61. 考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意同上。设空处为从句谓语,此处陈述客观事实,使用一般现在时,主语为it,谓语动词使用第三人称单数形式。故填contains。
62. 考查连词。句意:原作已失传于历史长河,但其美学原则通过无数摹本得以流传。结合句意可知,上下文之间是转折关系,需用连词but连接。故填but。
63. 考查副词。句意:如今,尽管打字在很大程度上已经取代了日常生活中的手写,但书法正在经历复兴。空处修饰动词replaced,需用副词形式。故填largely。
64. 考查名词。句意:它为数字世界提供了一种平衡,为个人提供了一种放慢脚步、集中注意力、重新连接文化遗产的方式。空处需填名词作宾语,individual为可数名词,此处表示泛指,且没有冠词限定,需填名词复数形式。故填individuals。
65. 考查介词。句意:使这种艺术形式经久不衰的是,它如何将纸上的墨水转化为人类精神的活生生的记录。transform...into...为固定短语,意为“把……转化为……”。故填into。

Thank you for listening!
【答案】参考范文1(正、反观点均有)
Dear fellow students,
Good morning! This is Voice of Teens — Li Hua from Senior Three. The hot question buzzing around is: “Should we be allowed to use AI tools for homework?”
My answer is a cautious YES — under clear rules. Indeed, AI tools can translate challenging materials, check grammar or generate essays in seconds, sparking fresh ideas when we feel stuck. But overusing AI kills creativity and violates academic honesty. If we let AI do all the work, we’ll lose the chance to practice our thinking and problem-solving skills. So treat AI as a springboard: credit it, rewrite it, then run your own brain-check.
Let’s make AI a partner in learning, not a shortcut. Let our brains lead the way!
Thank you for listening!
参考范文2(完全反对观点):
Dear fellow students,
Good morning! This is Voice of Teens — Li Hua from Senior Three. While many see AI as a homework helper, I firmly believe we should not be allowed to use it for our assignments.
Firstly, homework is designed to practice and strengthen our own thinking. If we rely on AI, we miss the chance to truly understand and master knowledge. Secondly, it risks academic honesty — presenting AI’s work as our own is a form of cheating. Finally, over-dependence on AI weakens our creativity and problem-solving skills, which are essential for future challenges.
Let’s value the learning process, think with our own minds, and grow through genuine effort.
Thank you for listening!

第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
When Ms Carter led Mia into our classroom, the room fell quiet. With her hair tied loosely and a blue backpack held tight, she stood frozen by the door, eyes looking around like a lost bird. “This is our exchange student from Sweden,” Ms Carter said. “Hello,” Mia said. Her voice was so soft that I emptied the seat behind me, and I noticed her shaking hands as she pulled out a notebook.
The first sign of trouble came at lunch. I saw Mia staring at her tray (碟) of spicy noodles, fork in hand uselessly. When I waved her over, she shook her head, forcing a smile that didn’t reach her eyes. Later, during group work, we tried to include her, but her broken English got confusing. “I … I don’t know the word,” she whispered, cheeks burning. That afternoon, I passed the library and saw her sitting alone, looking through photos on her phone — tears on her cheeks. My heart ached. I knew that lonely, out-of-place feeling.
By the end of the week, Mia still hadn’t spoken much. She ate alone, kept her head down in class, and avoided the playground during breaks. My deskmate Lily talked to me one morning. “She looks so sad,” she said. “We have to do something.” I thought about how scared I’d been when I moved to this school last year — how a single kind word had made all the difference. Mia’s silence wasn’t shyness; it was fear of being invisible.
One day, I accidentally knocked over her water bottle. As I helped clean it up, I noticed her notebook was filled with English words scrawled (潦草地写) over and over. “You’re working really hard,” I said. She looked up, surprised, and then nodded. “It’s so hard,” she admitted, voice breaking. “I miss my mom. Everything here is ... too much.” I held her hand gently, promising we’d help. Her eyes welled up, and she quickly wiped them away, saying “Thank you.”
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。
Lily and I brainstormed plans to make Mia feel welcome. __________________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Fully prepared, the “Culture Share” party arrived on Friday. ______________________________________
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Lily and I brainstormed plans to make Mia feel welcome. We decided to organize a “Culture Share” party, where everyone could learn about Sweden and share their own cultures to cheer Mia up. First, we invited Mia to teach us Swedish words and traditional handcrafts. She agreed with a shy but eager smile. We also prepared Swedish snacks together, like cinnamon rolls, and made posters introducing Sweden. The whole class was excited and actively offered to help.
Fully prepared, the “Culture Share” party arrived on Friday. Mia stood nervously at first, but when she started showing us Swedish folk dances and teaching simple phrases, her eyes sparkled. We all cheered and tried the phrases, laughing loudly. Then, everyone shared their own cultures too. Mia’s smile became genuine, and she even joined in our games. After the party, she came to us, her voice filled with warmth, “Thank you. I feel like I’m home now.”
【导语】本文以人物为线索。Mia作为交换生,因语言不通、文化隔阂,在新环境中倍感孤立,陷入“被忽视”的恐惧与孤独困境。作者和同桌Lily察觉到Mia的困境,不仅给予情感慰藉,还精心策划“文化分享会”,联动全班同学搭建包容的沟通桥梁,以尊重和接纳的方式帮助她打破壁垒。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“Lily和我想想出了一些计划来让Mia觉得自己受欢迎。”可知,本段可以作者和Lily想出的“文化分享会”的活动以及活动的准备过程。
②由第二段首句内容“准备好后,“文化分享会”在周五举行。”可知,本段可以具体写“文化分享会”上的活动以及每个人都积极参加,让Mia打开了自己的心扉。
2.续写线索:想出计划——“文化分享会”的点子——具体的准备活动——活动的情况和Mia的反应——Mia感谢作者。
3.词类激活:
行为类:加入:join in/be involved in/be engaged in 走向:come to/approach/walk towards
情绪类:激动的:excited/thrilled/full of excitement 眼里闪烁着光:eyes sparkle/ eyes twinkle/ eyes shine
【点睛】
【高分句型1】We decided to organize a “Culture Share” party, where everyone could learn about Sweden and share their own cultures to cheer Mia up.(运用了where引导非限制性定语从句。)
【高分句型2】We all cheered and tried the phrases, laughing loudly.(运用了现在分词作状语。)
