Here is a look back at some notable AI developments in 2022. Meta’s speech-to-speech translation Facebook’s parent Meta said it had built a technology tool to directly translate between English and the Hokkien language, a spoken language without a widely used written form. Meta said it trained its AI models on written text examples from Mandarin Chinese. In addition, developers used an encoding tool designed to compare spoken Hokkien to similar English text. Method to identify Parkinson’s disease Researchers announced a new AI method to identify Parkinson’s disease. The system works by measuring a person’s breathing patterns during sleep. With just one night of sleep, the AI system was able to correctly identify Parkinson’s up to 86 percent of the time. With 12 nights of data, the rate went up to 95 percent. Tool to interpret pig emotions Researchers announced they had created a technology tool that uses pig sounds to interpret different emotions. The tool is based on thousands of recordings collected from more than 400 pigs throughout their lives. The scientists developed an AI-driven approach to identify a series of emotions pigs could be experiencing. It is expected to lead to further systems farmers can use to improve the productivity and well-being of their animals. Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings Researchers — led by Alphabet’s AI company Deep Mind — said they developed an AI system to help fill in missing words in ancient writings. The tool, called Ithaca, is designed to help historians repair the writings and identify when and where they were written. The team said that when historians work on their own, the success rate for repairing damaged writings is about 25 percent. But when humans teamed up with Ithaca to assist in their work, the success rate jumped to 72 percent. 31. Which can be used for cross-cultural communication? A. Tool to interpret pig emotions. B. Meta’s speech-to-speech translation. C. Method to identify Parkinson’s disease. D. Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings. 32. Who will most probably be interested in Ithaca? A. A historian. B. A biologist. C. A chemist. D. A sculptor. 33. What do the inventions have in common? A. They focus on health issues. B. They are developed by Facebook. C. They aim to promote productivity. D. They are AI-driven technology tools. B Susan Mubanga grew up in Zambia, a country in Africa, where she often gazed at the night sky with wonder. Yet she noticed that very few people in her community had ever looked through a telescope. For most, the stars and planets remained a distant mystery. Susan believed that although the sky belongs to everyone, the chance to explore it does not. This inequality troubled her and sparked an idea. In 2014, Susan and her partner, Ms. Mwabisa, started a project called the Traveling Telescope. They used 3D modeling to design small, portable telescopes that could be easily carried to schools and villages. With the help of local volunteers, they visited underserved communities, bringing the wonders of the universe directly to children who had never looked through a telescope. The children’s excitement — seeing Saturn’s rings or the craters of the Moon for the first time — encouraged Susan to continue. Susan’s experience as a volunteer had taught her how to connect with people and share knowledge in simple, inspiring ways. She believed that astronomy should not be limited to scientists. Through the Traveling Telescope, she hoped to spark curiosity and open up the universe to every child, no matter where they lived. Today, the project continues to grow, reaching more schools and communities. It has become a symbol of hope, showing that with creativity and passion, we can help young people dream beyond the skies. 34. What inspired Susan Mubanga to start the Traveling Telescope? A. She wanted to become a famous scientist. B. She found that few people in her community could explore the sky. C. She received a telescope as a gift from her partner. D. She wanted to travel around the world with her telescope. 35. What did Susan and her partner do for the Traveling Telescope? A. They built a space center in Africa. B. They wrote books about astronomy for children. C. They made portable telescopes and brought them to schools and villages. D. They trained local teachers to become astronauts. 36. What does the underlined word “underserved” in Paragraph 2 most likely mean? A. Having no interest in science. B. Lacking enough resources or services. C. Being far away from cities. D. Having too many schools. 37. What is the main idea of the passage? A. A project that brings astronomy to more children. B. The life of a famous scientist in Africa. C. How to build a telescope with 3D modeling. D. The importance of volunteering in education. C There has been a notable rise in pet ownership, with more households welcoming pets into their families as family members. More people have come to appreciate the benefits of human-animal interactions. Nothing compares to the joy of coming home to a loyal companion. The unconditional love of a pet can do more than keep you company. If you own a dog, you can increase physical activity by walking a dog several times a day. If your goal is reducing stress, sometimes watching fish swim can result in a feeling of calmness. So there’s no one type that fits all. Interacting with animals has been proved to help decrease levels of cortisol (a stress-related hormone) and lower blood pressure. Some studies have found that animals can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support, and boost your mood. Besides the general benefits, animals can help in the hospital as well as at school. They can serve as a source of comfort and support. Therapy dogs are especially good at this. They’re sometimes brought into hospitals or nursing homes to help reduce patients’ stress and anxiety. Dogs may also aid in the classroom. They can help children improve their attention. Kids who often read to real animals can improve their social skills and are more willing to share, cooperate, and volunteer. While animals bring a wide range of health benefits, they may also bring some risks. For people who are allergic to certain animals, having pets in the home can do more harm than good. Kids, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems are at greater risk, because animals can sometimes carry germs that make people sick. Also dog bite prevention is certainly an issue parents need to consider. When considering the joys and responsibilities of pet ownership, it is crucial to approach the decision with wisdom and foresight. Potential pet owners should consider any allergies or health concerns within their household, as well as the long-term responsibility involved in caring for an animal. 38. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. Pets can bring joy and love to people. B. Pets can improve people’s social support. C. Pets can help people stay calm and relaxed. D. Pets can benefit people physically and mentally. 39. Why are therapy dogs brought into hospitals? A. To accompany patients without family. B. To assist patients in recovering quickly. C. To help patients ease pressure and worry. D. To help patients learn to care for animals. 40. Which group of people are usually at greater risk of getting sick from pets? A. Non-allergic people. B. Pregnant women and kids. C. Healthy young adults. D. Elderly with strong immunity. 41. What is the author’s attitude towards keeping pets? A. Rational. B. Supportive. C. Opposed. D. Worried. D Perfectionism, often proudly claimed as “an asset”, is increasingly recognized not as a virtue but as a significant psychological burden (负担) in modern society. Contrary to popular belief, perfectionism does not lead to greater success; rather, it often results in long-term dissatisfaction and mental health challenges. Research shows a clear connection between perfectionism and conditions such as depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. Alarmingly, over the past 25 years, perfectionism has been rising sharply, alongside an increase in mental health issues among young people. This rise is closely linked to changes in society. Today’s culture, with its focus on material success, social positions, and constant visibility through social media, fuels the need to appear perfect. Young people feel intense pressure to meet unrealistic standards in their appearance, lifestyle, and achievements. At the same time, an increasingly competitive environment—from standardized testing in schools to performance rankings — teaches them to equate self-worth with external assessment. Psychologists identify three aspects of perfectionism: self-oriented (struggling to be perfect), other-oriented (expecting perfection from others), and socially-expected (feeling that others demand perfection of you). The most harmful is socially-expected perfectionism—the belief that one must meet society’s ever-rising expectations. Studies show that the percentage of young people experiencing medically relevant levels of this form of perfectionism has doubled since 1989, and it is predicted to affect one in three by 2050. Rather than urging young people to become more adaptable, society must question the systems that fuel such harmful perfectionism. True solutions lie in reducing unrealistic social pressures, promoting self-compassion (自我同情), and helping individuals recognize that failure is a natural part of growth—not a mark of incompetence. By celebrating imperfection, we can build a healthier, more humane world for future generations. 42. What do the underlined words “an asset” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. A good quality. B. A heavy burden. C. A moral standard. D. A secret problem. 43. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Ways to reduce perfectionism. B. Sources of perfectionism pressure. C. Types of perfectionism behaviors. D. Effects of perfectionism on health. 44. What can we infer about perfectionism from paragraph 3? A. Its meaning has changed over time. B. It is shaped by external expectations. C. It is equally harmful across its different types. D. Its socially-expected form is growing sharply. 45. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Hidden Crisis of Perfectionism B. The Benefits of Perfectionism C. Strategies for Managing Perfectionism D. The Rise of Perfectionism Culture 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（共25分） 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分25分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Capturing a moment in time isn’t just about securing a memory and it also can help us appreciate our life more every day. As a student, my campus has been my whole world. While it may seem limiting, studying with the same classmates and the same teachers in the same classroom every day has given me many opportunities to make great memories. I love the jokes told by my teachers in class: the songs my roommates and I sing together and cheerleaders’ loud cries at basketball games. Even the glow of the sunset with the mixture of purple and vivid red over the playground is mesmerizing. And that is why I began to record my school life, and I’ve kept this habit for three years up until now. The first attempt, in the form of a diary, fell through as soon as my actual experiences became far more exciting than my words. So I bought a camera. I would find how joyful my school life was by recording every fascinating moment in my school life via photos and how much progress I made, which in turn installed (注入) more passion and purpose. As I progressed to senior high school, that camera gave way to camcorder (便携式摄像机) More and more videos drove me to learn video editing. Those valuable videos witnessed me joining the school choir (合唱团), training for sports meets, complaining about the burden of studying and having fun in the dormitory. They have become a labor of love and naturally my source of happiness. When I look back on my diaries, photos and videos during this winter vacation, those fond memories came flooding back. Recording my school life lets me not only capture every precious moment in the course of my growth but also gives me the ability to observe and appreciate my surroundings and create joy in my life. It creates positive impact on my friends, showing them how wonderful life is and how it all depends on how much enthusiasm you show. So imagine how amazed I was when people said they felt youth and vitality through my work! 46. What is the purpose of the capturing the moment in time? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________ 47. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 may have a similar meaning as ________. (1 word) 48. Why did the author buy a camera to record his school life? (no more than 12 words) ________________________________________________ 49. What is the title of the passage? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________ 50. How do you capture the unforgettable moment in your school life and why? Please explain it.

My pleasure我的荣幸。根据“I have been chosen as an exchange student to Canada, Jack.”可知，空处应为对好消息的祝贺，需选用积极回应的短语，Good for you“祝贺”符合题意。故选C。 2. Tom, as well as his parents, ________ in China over the past five years. A. have been living B. has been living C. are living D. is living 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查时态。句意：汤姆和他的父母过去五年一直住在中国。 根据后文over the past five years可知，表示动作从过去某时开始发生，一直延续到现在或离现在不远的时间，并可能延续下去的动作应用现在完成进行时；且主语后接介词短语 as well as，不影响主语的人称和数，谓语动词应根据主语的人称和数来确定，即助动词用has。故选B。 3. You have been such an 　　　　to all of us that we want to repay you for what you give us. A. alternative B. assistant C. attraction D. inspiration 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查名词词义辨析。句意:你对我们所有人来说是一个如此鼓舞人心的存在以至于我们想回报你所给予我们的。A. alternative可供选择的事物；B. assistant助手；C. attraction有吸引力的事；D. inspiration鼓舞人心的人(或事物)。根据“that we want to repay you for what you give us”可知，你对我们所有人来说是一个如此鼓舞人心的存在，所以我们想要报答你所给予我们的。故选D。 4. It is reported that many a new house ______ at present in the disaster area. A. are being built B. is being built C. were being built D. was being built 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查主谓一致和时态语态。句意：据报道，目前在灾区有许多新房屋正在建设中。many a后接单数名词作主语时，谓语动词要用单数形式；house与build之间是被动关系，所以要用被动语态；又根据at present确定应用现在进行时。故选B。 5.

A. to tell B. telling C. to be told D. being told 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：我们等结果等了将近三个小时，却被告知第二天再来。根据句意可知，此处表示意想不到的结果，only to do可以表示意想不到的结果，“we”和“tell”之间是被动关系，故用动词不定式的被动形式to be told。故选C项。 6. ________ challenges you meet on your way to success, you should keep calm and confident.

No matter when无论何时。空格处引导的是让步状语从句，从句中缺少宾语，应用连接代词whatever引导，表示“无论什么挑战”；no matter how和no matter when引导让步状语从句时，在从句中分别作状语，不能作宾语，what不能引导让步状语从句。故选B项。 7.

A. break down B. break into C. break out D. break up 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查动词短语辨析。句意：塑料需要数百年才能分解，而且在分解过程中，有毒物质会释放到水和土壤中。A. break down分解；B. break into闯入；突然开始（做）；C. break out（战争、火灾等）爆发；D. break up 结束；（使）分裂。根据上文“Plastic takes hundreds of years(塑料需要数百年)”以及下文“poisonous substances are released into water and soil(有毒物质会释放到水和土壤中)”可知，本句说的是塑料在数百年的时间里会逐渐“分解”并释放有毒物质，A项“break down(分解)”表达的含义符合语境，故选 A 项。 8. ________ impressed the audience most was his ability to speak five foreign languages so fluently. A. Which B. That C. What D. Who 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查主语从句。句意：最让观众印象深刻的是他能如此流利地说五门外语。此处为连接词引导的主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事物，用what引导。故选C项。 9. The reason why he was late was ____ his car broke down on the way.

A. fixing B. fixed C. having fixed D. to fix 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：他把所有的注意力都集中在工作上，几乎没有时间陪家人。“with+宾语+宾语补足语”为固定结构，空处需填非谓语动词，作宾语补足语，his attention和fix为逻辑动宾关系，需用过去分词形式fixed。故选B。 13. He tries to create an atmosphere workers can communicate effectively. A. what B. why C. when D. where 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：他试图营造一种员工可以有效沟通的氛围。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句。先行词为atmosphere，定语从句workers can communicate effectively中缺少地点状语，先行词在定语从句中充当抽象的地点状语，空处应用关系副词where引导，作地点状语。故选D项。 14.

That all depends这要看情况；B. It’s a pity真遗憾；C. Good for you太好了，恭喜你；D. By all means当然可以，务必如此。在这个对话中，对方分享了一个好消息，即他被选中参加一个重要的比赛。因此，回答应该是积极肯定的，以表达祝贺和支持。Good for you是一个常用的表达，用来表示对某人好消息的祝贺，适合这个情境。而That all depends表示某事取决于其他因素，It's a pity表示遗憾，By all means表示强烈同意或鼓励，这些选项都不适合回应一个好消息。故选C项。 第二节：完形填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） As a kid, passionately fond of reading, I feasted on books until my eyes blurred.

Here is a look back at some notable AI developments in 2022. Meta’s speech-to-speech translation Facebook’s parent Meta said it had built a technology tool to directly translate between English and the Hokkien language, a spoken language without a widely used written form. Meta said it trained its AI models on written text examples from Mandarin Chinese. In addition, developers used an encoding tool designed to compare spoken Hokkien to similar English text. Method to identify Parkinson’s disease Researchers announced a new AI method to identify Parkinson’s disease. The system works by measuring a person’s breathing patterns during sleep. With just one night of sleep, the AI system was able to correctly identify Parkinson’s up to 86 percent of the time. With 12 nights of data, the rate went up to 95 percent. Tool to interpret pig emotions Researchers announced they had created a technology tool that uses pig sounds to interpret different emotions. The tool is based on thousands of recordings collected from more than 400 pigs throughout their lives. The scientists developed an AI-driven approach to identify a series of emotions pigs could be experiencing. It is expected to lead to further systems farmers can use to improve the productivity and well-being of their animals. Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings Researchers — led by Alphabet’s AI company Deep Mind — said they developed an AI system to help fill in missing words in ancient writings. The tool, called Ithaca, is designed to help historians repair the writings and identify when and where they were written. The team said that when historians work on their own, the success rate for repairing damaged writings is about 25 percent. But when humans teamed up with Ithaca to assist in their work, the success rate jumped to 72 percent. 31. Which can be used for cross-cultural communication? A. Tool to interpret pig emotions. B. Meta’s speech-to-speech translation. C. Method to identify Parkinson’s disease. D. Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings. 32. Who will most probably be interested in Ithaca? A. A historian. B. A biologist. C. A chemist. D. A sculptor. 33. What do the inventions have in common? A. They focus on health issues. B. They are developed by Facebook. C. They aim to promote productivity. D. They are AI-driven technology tools. 【答案】31. B 32. A 33. D 【解析】 【导语】主要回顾了2022年几个著名的人工智能研究成果。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据小标题Meta’s speech-to-speech translation下的“Facebook’s parent Meta said it had built a technology tool to directly translate between English and the Hokkien language, a spoken language without a widely used written form. (Facebook 的母公司 Meta 表示，它已经开发了一种技术工具，可以直接在英语和闽南语之间进行翻译，闽南语是一种没有广泛使用的书面形式的口语。)”可知，Meta的语言和语言之间的翻译能用于跨文化交流。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The tool, called Ithaca, is designed to help historians repair the writings and identify when and where they were written. (这个工具被称为伊萨卡，旨在帮助历史学家修复这些著作，并确定它们写成的时间和地点。)”可知，历史学家最有可能对Ithaca感兴趣。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据Meta’s speech-to-speech translation部分的“Meta said it trained its AI models (Meta表示，它训练了自己的人工智能模型)”、Method to identify Parkinson’s disease部分的“Researchers announced a new AI method to identify Parkinson’s disease. (研究人员宣布了一种新的人工智能方法来识别帕金森病)”、Tool to interpret pig emotions部分的“The scientists developed an AI-driven approach (科学家们开发了一种人工智能驱动的方法)”和Tool to fill in missing words in ancient writings部分的“Researchers — led by Alphabet’s AI company Deep Mind — said they developed an AI system (由Alphabet旗下人工智能公司Deep Mind领导的研究人员表示，他们开发了一种人工智能系统)”可知，这些发明的共同之处在于它们都是由人工智能驱动的技术工具。 B Susan Mubanga grew up in Zambia, a country in Africa, where she often gazed at the night sky with wonder. Yet she noticed that very few people in her community had ever looked through a telescope. For most, the stars and planets remained a distant mystery. Susan believed that although the sky belongs to everyone, the chance to explore it does not. This inequality troubled her and sparked an idea. In 2014, Susan and her partner, Ms. Mwabisa, started a project called the Traveling Telescope. They used 3D modeling to design small, portable telescopes that could be easily carried to schools and villages. With the help of local volunteers, they visited underserved communities, bringing the wonders of the universe directly to children who had never looked through a telescope. The children’s excitement — seeing Saturn’s rings or the craters of the Moon for the first time — encouraged Susan to continue. Susan’s experience as a volunteer had taught her how to connect with people and share knowledge in simple, inspiring ways. She believed that astronomy should not be limited to scientists. Through the Traveling Telescope, she hoped to spark curiosity and open up the universe to every child, no matter where they lived. Today, the project continues to grow, reaching more schools and communities. It has become a symbol of hope, showing that with creativity and passion, we can help young people dream beyond the skies. 34. What inspired Susan Mubanga to start the Traveling Telescope? A. She wanted to become a famous scientist. B. She found that few people in her community could explore the sky. C. She received a telescope as a gift from her partner. D. She wanted to travel around the world with her telescope. 35. What did Susan and her partner do for the Traveling Telescope? A. They built a space center in Africa. B. They wrote books about astronomy for children. C. They made portable telescopes and brought them to schools and villages. D. They trained local teachers to become astronauts. 36. What does the underlined word “underserved” in Paragraph 2 most likely mean? A. Having no interest in science. B. Lacking enough resources or services. C. Being far away from cities. D. Having too many schools. 37. What is the main idea of the passage? A. A project that brings astronomy to more children. B. The life of a famous scientist in Africa. C. How to build a telescope with 3D modeling. D. The importance of volunteering in education. 【答案】34. B 35. C 36. B 37. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述非洲赞比亚的 Susan Mubanga 因发现社区很少有人能探索星空，创办“移动望远镜”项目，将天文学知识带给更多孩子的事迹。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Susan Mubanga grew up in Zambia, a country in Africa, where she often gazed at the night sky with wonder. Yet she noticed that very few people in her community had ever looked through a telescope. For most, the stars and planets remained a distant mystery. Susan believed that although the sky belongs to everyone, the chance to explore it does not. This inequality troubled her and sparked an idea.(苏珊・穆班加在非洲的赞比亚长大，在那里她常常好奇地凝视夜空。然而她注意到，她社区里很少有人用过望远镜。对大多数人来说，恒星和行星仍然是一个遥远的谜团。苏珊认为，虽然天空属于每个人，但探索天空的机会却并非如此。这种不平等让她感到困扰，并激发了她的一个想法)”可知，苏珊创办“移动望远镜”项目的灵感来源于发现社区里很少有人能探索星空，这种探索机会的不平等让她产生了帮助更多人接触天文学的想法。故选B项。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In 2014, Susan and her partner, Ms. Mwabisa, started a project called the Traveling Telescope. They used 3D modeling to design small, portable telescopes that could be easily carried to schools and villages. With the help of local volunteers, they visited underserved communities, bringing the wonders of the universe directly to children who had never looked through a telescope.(2014 年，苏珊和她的合作伙伴姆瓦比萨女士启动了一个名为“移动望远镜”的项目。她们利用3D建模设计了小型便携式望远镜，这些望远镜可以很容易地携带到学校和村庄。在当地志愿者的帮助下，她们走访了服务不足的社区，将宇宙的奇迹直接带给那些从未用过望远镜的孩子们)”可知，苏珊和她的合作伙伴设计并制作了便携式望远镜，并将其带到学校和村庄。故选C项。 【36题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“With the help of local volunteers, they visited underserved communities, bringing the wonders of the universe directly to children who had never looked through a telescope.(在当地志愿者的帮助下，她们走访了 underserved 社区，将宇宙的奇迹直接带给那些从未用过望远镜的孩子们)”可知，这些社区的孩子缺乏接触天文学、使用望远镜的机会，即缺乏足够的相关资源和服务。因此underserved意为“缺乏足够资源或服务的”。故选B项。 【37题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合“In 2014, Susan and her partner, Ms. Mwabisa, started a project called the Traveling Telescope. They used 3D modeling to design small, portable telescopes that could be easily carried to schools and villages. With the help of local volunteers, they visited underserved communities, bringing the wonders of the universe directly to children who had never looked through a telescope.(2014 年，苏珊和她的合作伙伴姆瓦比萨女士启动了一个名为“移动望远镜”的项目。她们利用3D建模设计了小型便携式望远镜，这些望远镜可以很容易地携带到学校和村庄。在当地志愿者的帮助下，她们走访了服务不足的社区，将宇宙的奇迹直接带给那些从未用过望远镜的孩子们)”以及第三段中的“Through the Traveling Telescope, she hoped to spark curiosity and open up the universe to every child, no matter where they lived. Today, the project continues to grow, reaching more schools and communities.(通过“移动望远镜”项目，她希望激发孩子们的好奇心，并向每一个孩子敞开宇宙的大门，无论他们生活在何处。如今，这个项目仍在不断发展，覆盖了更多的学校和社区)” 可知，全文围绕“移动望远镜”项目展开，主要讲述该项目如何将天文学知识和宇宙的奥秘带给更多孩子，因此本文的主旨是一个将天文学带给更多孩子的项目。故选A项。 C There has been a notable rise in pet ownership, with more households welcoming pets into their families as family members. More people have come to appreciate the benefits of human-animal interactions. Nothing compares to the joy of coming home to a loyal companion. The unconditional love of a pet can do more than keep you company. If you own a dog, you can increase physical activity by walking a dog several times a day. If your goal is reducing stress, sometimes watching fish swim can result in a feeling of calmness. So there’s no one type that fits all. Interacting with animals has been proved to help decrease levels of cortisol (a stress-related hormone) and lower blood pressure. Some studies have found that animals can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support, and boost your mood. Besides the general benefits, animals can help in the hospital as well as at school. They can serve as a source of comfort and support. Therapy dogs are especially good at this. They’re sometimes brought into hospitals or nursing homes to help reduce patients’ stress and anxiety. Dogs may also aid in the classroom. They can help children improve their attention. Kids who often read to real animals can improve their social skills and are more willing to share, cooperate, and volunteer. While animals bring a wide range of health benefits, they may also bring some risks. For people who are allergic to certain animals, having pets in the home can do more harm than good. Kids, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems are at greater risk, because animals can sometimes carry germs that make people sick. Also dog bite prevention is certainly an issue parents need to consider. When considering the joys and responsibilities of pet ownership, it is crucial to approach the decision with wisdom and foresight. Potential pet owners should consider any allergies or health concerns within their household, as well as the long-term responsibility involved in caring for an animal. 38. What does Paragraph 2 mainly tell us? A. Pets can bring joy and love to people. B. Pets can improve people’s social support. C. Pets can help people stay calm and relaxed. D. Pets can benefit people physically and mentally. 39. Why are therapy dogs brought into hospitals? A. To accompany patients without family. B. To assist patients in recovering quickly. C. To help patients ease pressure and worry. D. To help patients learn to care for animals. 40. Which group of people are usually at greater risk of getting sick from pets? A. Non-allergic people. B. Pregnant women and kids. C. Healthy young adults. D. Elderly with strong immunity. 41. What is the author’s attitude towards keeping pets? A. Rational. B. Supportive. C. Opposed. D. Worried. 【答案】38. D 39. C 40. B 41. A 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了养宠率显著上升，宠物能带来身心、医疗及教育方面的诸多益处，但也存在健康风险，作者建议人们理性做出养宠决定。 【38题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第二段中“If you own a dog, you can increase physical activity by walking a dog several times a day. If your goal is reducing stress, sometimes watching fish swim can result in a feeling of calmness. So there’s no one type that fits all. Interacting with animals has been proved to help decrease levels of cortisol (a stress-related hormone) and lower blood pressure. Some studies have found that animals can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support, and boost your mood.(如果你养了一只狗，你可以通过每天遛狗几次来增加身体活动量。如果你的目标是减轻压力，有时观看鱼儿游动可能会让你感到平静。所以，并没有一种类型能适用于所有人。与动物互动已被证明有助于降低皮质醇（一种与压力相关的激素）的水平，并降低血压。一些研究发现，动物可以减少孤独感，增加社交支持感，并改善情绪。)”可知，第二段主要告诉我们宠物能对人们的身心都有益处。故选D项。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“They’re sometimes brought into hospitals or nursing homes to help reduce patients’ stress and anxiety.(有时他们会被带进医院或养老院，以帮助减轻患者的压力和焦虑。)”可知，把治疗犬带进医院是为了帮助病人缓解压力和忧虑。故选C项。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“For people who are allergic to certain animals, having pets in the home can do more harm than good. Kids, pregnant women, and people with weakened immune systems are at greater risk, because animals can sometimes carry germs that make people sick.(对于对某些动物过敏的人来说，在家中养宠物可能弊大于利。对于孩子、孕妇以及免疫系统较弱的人来说，风险更大，因为动物有时会携带使人患病的病菌。)”可推知，孕妇和儿童人群更容易因接触宠物而患病。故选B项。 【41题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第二段中“Some studies have found that animals can reduce loneliness, increase feelings of social support, and boost your mood.( 一些研究发现，动物可以减少孤独感，增加社交支持感，并改善情绪。)”和第四段中“While animals bring a wide range of health benefits, they may also bring some risks. For people who are allergic to certain animals, having pets in the home can do more harm than good.( 虽然动物能带来诸多健康益处，但也可能带来一些风险。对于对某些动物过敏的人来说，在家中养宠物可能弊大于利。)”可知，作者客观全面地分析了养宠物的多重健康益处，同时也明确指出了潜在风险，最后建议潜在养宠人要综合考虑健康问题和长期责任，理性做出决定。因此作者的态度是理性客观的。故选A项。 D Perfectionism, often proudly claimed as “an asset”, is increasingly recognized not as a virtue but as a significant psychological burden (负担) in modern society. Contrary to popular belief, perfectionism does not lead to greater success; rather, it often results in long-term dissatisfaction and mental health challenges. Research shows a clear connection between perfectionism and conditions such as depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. Alarmingly, over the past 25 years, perfectionism has been rising sharply, alongside an increase in mental health issues among young people. This rise is closely linked to changes in society. Today’s culture, with its focus on material success, social positions, and constant visibility through social media, fuels the need to appear perfect. Young people feel intense pressure to meet unrealistic standards in their appearance, lifestyle, and achievements. At the same time, an increasingly competitive environment—from standardized testing in schools to performance rankings — teaches them to equate self-worth with external assessment. Psychologists identify three aspects of perfectionism: self-oriented (struggling to be perfect), other-oriented (expecting perfection from others), and socially-expected (feeling that others demand perfection of you). The most harmful is socially-expected perfectionism—the belief that one must meet society’s ever-rising expectations. Studies show that the percentage of young people experiencing medically relevant levels of this form of perfectionism has doubled since 1989, and it is predicted to affect one in three by 2050. Rather than urging young people to become more adaptable, society must question the systems that fuel such harmful perfectionism. True solutions lie in reducing unrealistic social pressures, promoting self-compassion (自我同情), and helping individuals recognize that failure is a natural part of growth—not a mark of incompetence. By celebrating imperfection, we can build a healthier, more humane world for future generations. 42. What do the underlined words “an asset” in paragraph 1 probably mean? A. A good quality. B. A heavy burden. C. A moral standard. D. A secret problem. 43. What is paragraph 2 mainly about? A. Ways to reduce perfectionism. B. Sources of perfectionism pressure. C. Types of perfectionism behaviors. D. Effects of perfectionism on health. 44. What can we infer about perfectionism from paragraph 3? A. Its meaning has changed over time. B. It is shaped by external expectations. C. It is equally harmful across its different types. D. Its socially-expected form is growing sharply. 45. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. Hidden Crisis of Perfectionism B. The Benefits of Perfectionism C. Strategies for Managing Perfectionism D. The Rise of Perfectionism Culture 【答案】42. A 43. B 44. D 45. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇议论文。全文论述完美主义从“优点”变为心理负担，剖析社会根源、类型数据并呼吁系统性改变，核心在于揭示这场“隐藏危机”。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段划线词“an asset”前后文的内容“Perfectionism is increasingly recognized not as a virtue but as a significant psychological burden in modern society(完美主义越来越被认为不是现代社会的一种美德，而是一种重大的心理负担)”可知，“an asset”与后文的“not as a virtue (不是一种美德) ”形成对比转折，说明“an asset”原被视为积极正面的特质，即“good quality (优良品质)”。故选A项。 【43题详解】 主旨大意题。第二段首句点明“This rise is closely linked to changes in society(这种上升与社会的变化密切相关)”，随后的内容“ Today’s culture, with its focus on material success, social positions, and constant visibility through social media, fuels the need to appear perfect. Young people feel intense pressure to meet unrealistic standards in their appearance, lifestyle, and achievements. At the same time, an increasingly competitive environment—from standardized testing in schools to performance rankings — teaches them to equate self-worth with external assessment.(当今的社会，其强调的是物质成就、社会地位以及通过社交媒体保持的持续高曝光度，这使得人们愈发渴望展现出完美的形象。年轻人感受到巨大的压力，要达到那些不切实际的外貌、生活方式和成就标准。与此同时，竞争日益激烈的环境——从学校标准化考试到各类排名——教导他们将自我价值与外部评价等同起来。)”具体说明社会变化如何催生完美主义：现代文化对物质成功、社会地位的追求，社交媒体的持续可见性，以及竞争环境 (如标准化测试、绩效排名) 带来的压力。这些均属于完美主义压力的“来源”， 因此推断本段主要讲述完美主义压力的来源。故选B项。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段的句子“The most harmful is socially-expected perfectionism — the belief that one must meet society’s ever-rising expectations. Studies show that the percentage of young people experiencing medically relevant levels of this form of perfectionism has doubled since 1989, and it is predicted to affect one in three by 2050.(最有害的是社会期待型完美主义——即认为一个人必须满足社会不断提高的期望。研究表明，自1989年以来，经历这种完美主义且达到医学相关程度的年轻人比例已翻了一番，预计到2050年，每三人中就有一人会受其影响。)”可知，社会期待型完美主义增长最迅猛。故选D项。 【45题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第一段“Perfectionism, often proudly claimed as “an asset”, is increasingly recognized not as a virtue but as a significant psychological burden in modern society. Contrary to popular belief, perfectionism does not lead to greater success; rather, it often results in long-term dissatisfaction and mental health challenges. Research shows a clear connection between perfectionism and conditions such as depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. Alarmingly, over the past 25 years, perfectionism has been rising sharply, alongside an increase in mental health issues among young people.(完美主义常被自豪地宣称是‘一种优势’，但在现代社会，它正日益被视为一种显著的心理负担，而非美德。与普遍看法相反，完美主义并不会带来更大的成功；相反，它往往会导致长期的不满和心理健康问题。研究表明，完美主义与抑郁症、焦虑症和饮食失调等病症之间存在明确关联。令人担忧的是，在过去25年里，随着年轻人心理健康问题的增加，完美主义也急剧上升。)”可知，全文核心是揭示完美主义从“被宣称的优势”转变为“心理负担”，并指出其在年轻人中急剧上升的趋势及危害 (如心理健康问题)，强调这一被忽视的危机。所以，用A项“Hidden Crisis of Perfectionism(完美主义隐藏的危机)”作为本文的题目，与文章主题相符合。故选A项。 第Ⅱ卷 非选择题（共25分） 第四部分：写作（共两节，满分25分） 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Capturing a moment in time isn’t just about securing a memory and it also can help us appreciate our life more every day. As a student, my campus has been my whole world. While it may seem limiting, studying with the same classmates and the same teachers in the same classroom every day has given me many opportunities to make great memories. I love the jokes told by my teachers in class: the songs my roommates and I sing together and cheerleaders’ loud cries at basketball games. Even the glow of the sunset with the mixture of purple and vivid red over the playground is mesmerizing. And that is why I began to record my school life, and I’ve kept this habit for three years up until now. The first attempt, in the form of a diary, fell through as soon as my actual experiences became far more exciting than my words. So I bought a camera. I would find how joyful my school life was by recording every fascinating moment in my school life via photos and how much progress I made, which in turn installed (注入) more passion and purpose. As I progressed to senior high school, that camera gave way to camcorder (便携式摄像机) More and more videos drove me to learn video editing. Those valuable videos witnessed me joining the school choir (合唱团), training for sports meets, complaining about the burden of studying and having fun in the dormitory. They have become a labor of love and naturally my source of happiness. When I look back on my diaries, photos and videos during this winter vacation, those fond memories came flooding back. Recording my school life lets me not only capture every precious moment in the course of my growth but also gives me the ability to observe and appreciate my surroundings and create joy in my life. It creates positive impact on my friends, showing them how wonderful life is and how it all depends on how much enthusiasm you show. So imagine how amazed I was when people said they felt youth and vitality through my work! 46. What is the purpose of the capturing the moment in time? (no more than 10 words) ________________________________________________ 47. The underlined word in Paragraph 2 may have a similar meaning as ________. (1 word) 48.

Because actual experiences became far more exciting than words. 49. Recording my school life. 50. I record every fascinating moment in my school life by my camera and then transfer those photos to my phone. 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者用相机记录自己学校生活中的每一个精彩时刻的故事。 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。根据文章第一段“Capturing a moment in time isn’t just about securing a memory- it can help us appreciate our life more every day.(捕捉瞬间不仅仅是为了保存记忆——它可以帮助我们每天更加珍惜生活)”可知，作者捕捉瞬间是为了保存记忆和珍惜生活。故答案为To secure a memory and appreciate life every day. 【47题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线单词上文“While it may seem limiting, studying with the same classmates and the same teachers in the same classroom every day has given me many opportunities to make great memories. I love the jokes told by my teachers in class, the songs my roommates and I sing together and cheerleaders’ loud cries at basketball games.(虽然这看起来很有限，但每天在同一个教室和同样的同学和老师一起学习给了我很多留下美好回忆的机会。我喜欢老师在课堂上讲的笑话，喜欢室友和我一起唱的歌，喜欢篮球比赛时啦啦队长的大声呼喊)”可知，上文讲述的是作者对这些场景的喜爱，由此可知，划线单词指的是对操场上紫色和鲜艳的红色混合的晚霞的“喜爱”，也就是说操场上紫色和鲜艳的红色混合的晚霞也是有吸引力的。由此可知，划线单词和“迷人的、有吸引力的”相关。故答案为Attractive/appealing/fascinating. 【48题详解】 考查推理判断。根据文章第三段“The first attempt, in the form of a diary, fell through as soon as my actual experiences became far more exciting than my words. So I bought a camera, with which I recorded every fascinating moment in my school life. Every weekend I transferred those photos to my phone and posted them on my social media.(第一次尝试是写日记，但当我的实际经历远比我的文字更令人兴奋时，我就放弃了。所以我买了一台相机，用它记录下我学校生活中每一个精彩的时刻。每个周末我都会把这些照片转移到我的手机上，然后发布到我的社交媒体上)”可知，作者之所以买相机是因为文字不能表达出那些令人兴奋的时刻。故答案为Because actual experiences became far more exciting than words. 【49题详解】 考查主旨大意。根据文章最后一段“When I look back on my diaries, photos and videos during this winter vacation, those fond memories came flooding back. Recording my school life lets me not only capture every precious moment in the course of my growth but also gives me the ability to observe and appreciate my surroundings and create joy in my life. It creates positive impact on my friends, showing them how wonderful life is and how it all depends on how much enthusiasm you show. So imagine how amazed I was when people said they felt youth and vitality through my work!(当我回顾这个寒假的日记、照片和视频时，那些美好的回忆如潮水般涌上心头。记录我的学校生活，不仅让我捕捉到成长过程中的每一个珍贵时刻，也让我有能力观察和欣赏周围的环境，创造生活的乐趣。它对我的朋友产生了积极的影响，告诉他们生活是多么美好，这一切都取决于你表现出多少热情。所以想象一下，当人们说他们通过我的作品感受到年轻和活力时，我是多么惊讶！)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者用相机记录自己学校生活的故事。故答案为Recording my school life. 【50题详解】 开放题。要生考生谈谈自己将会如何记录自己的学校生活，考生言之有理即可。我用相机记录下学校生活中每一个精彩的时刻，然后把这些照片转移到我的手机上。故参考答案为I record every fascinating moment in my school life by my camera and then transfer those photos to my phone. 第二节：书面表达（共1小题，满分15分） 51. 未来我们需要具备什么的核心能力？体育能力、终身学习能力、时间管理能力、沟通能力、创新能力……你们学校正在举行以“Core Abilities（核心能力）”为主题的英文演讲比赛，如果你是李华，请根据以下提示，选择至少两个核心能力写一篇英语演讲稿。 What core abilities do you need in the future?

Thank you for your listening! 【答案】 Good morning，everyone！ My name is Li Hua. It’s my great pleasure to talk about “core abilities” today. I think sports and life-long learning are the core abilities that we should have. First of all, health is more important than wealth. So we should pay more attention to our health. It’s necessary for us to spend more time doing sports to keep healthy. We students need to make a plan of exercising and do sports for at least twenty minutes every day. Next, with the rapid development of science and technology, we must have the ability of life-long learning to meet the needs of our work and life. I think the best way of keeping life-long learning is to learn by ourselves. We can learn from book, Internet or even radios. Only by doing this can we take on new challenges any time. I hope that everyone can keep doing sports and keep learning to make ourselves and our life better. That’s all for my speech. Thank you for your listening! 【解析】 【导语】本篇书面表达属于应用文。要求考生以“核心能力”为主题，选择至少两个核心能力，阐述未来所需的核心能力、原因以及提升这些能力的措施。 【详解】1.词汇积累 重要的：important → significant 关注：pay attention to → focus on 必要的：necessary → essential 计划：plan → schedule 2.句式拓展 同义句转换 原句：We students need to make a plan of exercising and do sports for at least twenty minutes every day. 拓展句：Not only do we students need to make a plan of exercising, but also we should do sports for at least twenty minutes every day. 【点睛】【高分句型1】I think sports and life-long learning are the core abilities that we should have.（运用了that引导的限制性定语从句） 【高分句型2】I hope that everyone can keep doing sports and keep learning to make ourselves and our life better.（运用了that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
