B Powerlifting, a strength sport where people try to lift the most weight possible, is often seen as a sport for the young and athletes. But Faith O’Reilly, an 82-year-old grandma from Colorado, is ready to challenge this idea. She’ll soon get to show her abilities at a national competition. Born in St. Louis, O’Reilly moved with her family to Des Moines. She then attended the University of Iowa, where she discovered weightlifting. “While I was in law school, I met some people who were doing weightlifting, and they invited me to go to a powerlifting meet,” she said. “I watched it and thought, ‘Well, I can do that.’” And she indeed did it. O’Reilly did well, even winning some state championships. However, she had to move to St. Paul, Minnesota for work, which resulted in her having less and less time to practice, finally leading her to drop lifting completely. After she retired (退休) in 2007, O’Reilly rediscovered her love for the sport. She had visited a small town called Saguache in Colorado with her granddaughter and loved it. So she decided to live there. With more free time and green landscapes, she started lifting again. She even set up her own gym with special safety bars, so she can train anytime she wants. Now, she is among great older lifters like 95-year-old Catherine Kuehn and 81-year-old Nora Langdon. O’Reilly believes lifting is good for everyone. “It’s good for your body. As you get older, you may have problems with bone density and losing muscle tone (肌张力),” she says, “so this helps you stay fit.” O’Reilly last competed at the 2024 Summer Showdown and Team Cup in Colorado, where she was the oldest competitor. “Besides working out, it gives you the chance to be part of an athletic adventure. The people here are very open and friendly, “O’Reilly says about competing. “You make many friends and get support.” 34. What made O’Reilly take up powerlifting? A. Her dream to win state championships. B. Her task to challenge the traditional ideas. C. Her granddaughter’s advice on staying healthy. D. Her experience of watching a powerlifting meet. 35. Which of the following is the correct order about Faith O’Reilly’s life? a. She moved to St. Paul for a new job. b. She discovered weightlifting at university. c. She won some state championships. d. She started lifting again in Saguache. e. She visited a small town with her granddaughter. A. abcde B. abedc C. bcdea D. bcaed 36. From the passage, we know O’Reilly ________. A. stopped lifting for some time because she lost interest B. thinks powerlifting competitions are too dangerous C. enjoys making friends and getting support from others D. last competed in a national competition in 2024 37. Which may be the best title for the text? A. Strength Knows No Age B. An 82-Year-Old Grandma C. Competition Builds Confidence D. The Best Exercises for Healthy Bones C When living or travelling in another country, we notice the differences between cultures before seeing the similarities. At first, some differences are easy to notice. Over time, however, there are some surprising similarities between how people in the UK and China communicate. Indeed, people in both countries often complain about having to read what local people really mean, because it is often different from what is said. In the UK, outsiders often get confused when they realize that a person saying something rude is actually showing love. In situations like this, context (语境) is everything. In China, outsiders must infer most meaning from context and from what is not said, rather than from what is said. You also need to read between the lines. Otherwise, misunderstandings may happen. Both the British and Chinese try to avoid conflict (冲突), which greatly influences how people communicate. The British will do everything to avoid conflict. For example, they will probably tell the waiter it was lovely even when they are served with poor quality food. In business, a British business partner who is deeply unhappy with your plan will probably say “there are just a couple of small problems.” Chinese communication shows a very similar way of preventing conflict. They often avoid talking about challenges, mistakes, or problems directly. Instead, people talk about working towards further goals, rather than directly say that the situation is far from satisfactory. Chinese people like to keep a sense of harmony (和谐) within all environments, and so avoid open criticism (批评) of each other. For example, instead of saying a person is rude, a Chinese person might say he is “very confident”. In this sense, the British and Chinese can understand each other better because both value harmony. 38. What does the phrase “read between the lines” mean in Paragraph 2? A. To read every word carefully. B. To understand the hidden meaning. C. To write between two lines of text. D. To translate a foreign language. 39. How do British and Chinese people communicate when they are unhappy with something? A. They use indirect or polite words. B. They stay silent and say nothing. C. They express their anger directly. D. They complain to a third person. 40. What can you infer when a British business partner says, “There are just a couple of small problems in your plan”? A. He is very satisfied with the plan. B. He is unhappy with the whole plan. C. The plan has two small problems. D. The plan can be carried out at once. 41. Which is the best title for the passage? A. How to Avoid Conflict in Communication B. Cultural Differences Between the UK and China C. Similarities in British and Chinese Communication D. The Importance of Guessing Meaning from Context D Education used to be done only by humans. Teachers gave lessons, checked students’ grades, and managed classroom environments. However, the rise of digital technology led to the development of online learning platforms (平台), digital classrooms, and online courses. And when we add AI (artificial intelligence), education can be brought to a completely new level. ① Every student has their own learning style, speed, and set of strengths and weaknesses. Traditional education systems often find it hard to meet each student’s needs because of class size, limited resources, and the one-size-fits-all method. ②AI can change that. With AI-driven learning platforms, students can learn through materials at their own speed. For example, platforms like Coursera, Khan Academy, and Duolingo use AI to see how the students are doing and then offer content, quizzes, and exercises for them. ③Traditionally, teachers are often busy with tasks such as grading, lesson planning, and tracking student progress. AI can take over some of these tasks, giving teachers more time to work directly with students. For example, AI tools can grade homework, exams, and quizzes much faster than humans. This is especially valuable for large classes where grading might take days or even weeks. Moreover, AI can help teachers with lesson planning by reading a lot of materials and suggesting resources that best match student learning needs. With AI, students who have trouble with language disabilities have more chances to receive education. AI-powered tools, such as Google Classroom and Microsoft Word, are developed to support students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and ADHD. ④Text-to-speech, real-time translation, and sign language identification technologies can help students who face challenges in traditional educational environments. Looking ahead, AI’s role in education will continue to develop. As technology improves, we can expect AI to become part of learning platforms, making education more interesting and fun. 42. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. AI can help teachers grade homework faster. B. Traditional schools are perfect for every student. C. AI allows students to learn at their own speed. D. Online platforms like Coursera are free for all students. 43. How does the writer support the idea that AI helps teachers? A. By giving examples. B. By listing numbers. C. By telling stories. D. By showing surveys. 44. Where can we put the following sentence in the passage? Moreover, AI tools are making it easier for students who can’t see or hear well. A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 45. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce famous online learning platforms. B. To explain how teachers use AI in daily life. C. To show the important role of AI in education. D. To discuss problems of traditional education. 第二部分 非选择题（60分） 四、词汇运用（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分） 用括号中所给的汉语提示或单词的适当形式填空，使句意完整，每空一词。 46. It’s a pity that this musician died in his ________（四十）. 47.

These wonderful woodlands are not as famous as the Amazon rainforests, but they are just as important. Snow forests are found in the far north of the world, in areas that are quite cold and usually have a lot of snowfall. They lie across parts of Canada, China, Finland, Japan, Norway, Russia, Sweden and America. Snow forests have very cold winters that can last up to six months. But even so, they are home to many kinds of animals, including foxes, mice and wolves. In the US and Canada, as many as five billion birds from more than three hundred species live in the snow forests in the breeding (繁殖) season. These woodlands perform an important job: helping to take in harmful gases. The gases are given off by burning coal, oil and gas, which can cause climate change. However, snow forests are facing several problems. Trees are being cut down faster and faster for their wood, which can be used for building. Some forests are being cleared to make space for new roads and houses, or to allow coal and gas industries to grow. What’s worse, as the world gets warmer, Canada and Russia have seen terrible fires spread through the forests. Luckily, environmental and wildlife groups around the world are working hard to protect snow forests. This means that cutting down trees is controlled in some areas and the forests are seen as areas of special scientific interest. When wood is needed, planting plans and careful forest management help to reduce the human influence so that the forests are managed in a way that they can survive and regrow. 56. What percent of world forests are snow forests? __________________________________________ 57. Where do snow forests mainly lie? __________________________________________ 58. Why are snow forests important against climate change? __________________________________________ 59. What two main problems are snow forests facing? __________________________________________ 60.

It doesn’t matter 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我们现在经常忘记如何写汉字了。我们应该多写字而不是用电脑或手机。——我再同意不过了！我们不能太依赖电脑或手机。 Sorry, I can’t抱歉，我做不到；I don’t think so我不这么认为；I can’t agree more我完全同意；It doesn’t matter没关系。根据后句“我们不能过分依赖电脑或手机”可知，说话者同意前句“我们应该多写，而不是使用电脑或手机”的观点，表示完全赞同，应填I can’t agree more。 二、完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，计15分） 阅读下列短文，从文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 I used to hide my drawings whenever guests came over.

But Faith O’Reilly, an 82-year-old grandma from Colorado, is ready to challenge this idea. She’ll soon get to show her abilities at a national competition. Born in St. Louis, O’Reilly moved with her family to Des Moines. She then attended the University of Iowa, where she discovered weightlifting. “While I was in law school, I met some people who were doing weightlifting, and they invited me to go to a powerlifting meet,” she said. “I watched it and thought, ‘Well, I can do that.’” And she indeed did it. O’Reilly did well, even winning some state championships. However, she had to move to St. Paul, Minnesota for work, which resulted in her having less and less time to practice, finally leading her to drop lifting completely. After she retired (退休) in 2007, O’Reilly rediscovered her love for the sport. She had visited a small town called Saguache in Colorado with her granddaughter and loved it. So she decided to live there. With more free time and green landscapes, she started lifting again. She even set up her own gym with special safety bars, so she can train anytime she wants. Now, she is among great older lifters like 95-year-old Catherine Kuehn and 81-year-old Nora Langdon. O’Reilly believes lifting is good for everyone. “It’s good for your body. As you get older, you may have problems with bone density and losing muscle tone (肌张力),” she says, “so this helps you stay fit.” O’Reilly last competed at the 2024 Summer Showdown and Team Cup in Colorado, where she was the oldest competitor. “Besides working out, it gives you the chance to be part of an athletic adventure. The people here are very open and friendly, “O’Reilly says about competing. “You make many friends and get support.” 34. What made O’Reilly take up powerlifting? A. Her dream to win state championships. B. Her task to challenge the traditional ideas. C. Her granddaughter’s advice on staying healthy. D. Her experience of watching a powerlifting meet. 35. Which of the following is the correct order about Faith O’Reilly’s life? a. She moved to St. Paul for a new job. b. She discovered weightlifting at university. c. She won some state championships. d. She started lifting again in Saguache. e. She visited a small town with her granddaughter. A. abcde B. abedc C. bcdea D. bcaed 36. From the passage, we know O’Reilly ________. A. stopped lifting for some time because she lost interest B. thinks powerlifting competitions are too dangerous C. enjoys making friends and getting support from others D. last competed in a national competition in 2024 37. Which may be the best title for the text? A. Strength Knows No Age B. An 82-Year-Old Grandma C. Competition Builds Confidence D. The Best Exercises for Healthy Bones 【答案】34. D 35. D 36. C 37. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了82岁的老奶奶Faith O'Reilly坚持进行力量举运动，享受这项运动并从中收获健康与友谊的故事。 【34题详解】 第二段指出：“I watched it and thought, ‘Well, I can do that.’”，这直接说明她观看力量举比赛的经历让她开始从事力量举运动。 【35题详解】 梳理文章事件顺序可知：b她在大学发现举重→c她赢得一些州级冠军→a她为新工作搬到圣保罗→e她和孙女游览小镇→d她在萨瓜奇重新开始举重，因此顺序为bcaed。 【36题详解】 最后一段提到：“You make many friends and get support”，说明O'Reilly喜欢结交朋友并从他人那里获得支持。 【37题详解】 全文讲述82岁奶奶坚持力量举运动，体现力量与年龄无关，因此最佳标题为Strength Knows No Age。 C When living or travelling in another country, we notice the differences between cultures before seeing the similarities. At first, some differences are easy to notice. Over time, however, there are some surprising similarities between how people in the UK and China communicate. Indeed, people in both countries often complain about having to read what local people really mean, because it is often different from what is said. In the UK, outsiders often get confused when they realize that a person saying something rude is actually showing love. In situations like this, context (语境) is everything. In China, outsiders must infer most meaning from context and from what is not said, rather than from what is said. You also need to read between the lines. Otherwise, misunderstandings may happen. Both the British and Chinese try to avoid conflict (冲突), which greatly influences how people communicate. The British will do everything to avoid conflict. For example, they will probably tell the waiter it was lovely even when they are served with poor quality food. In business, a British business partner who is deeply unhappy with your plan will probably say “there are just a couple of small problems.” Chinese communication shows a very similar way of preventing conflict. They often avoid talking about challenges, mistakes, or problems directly. Instead, people talk about working towards further goals, rather than directly say that the situation is far from satisfactory. Chinese people like to keep a sense of harmony (和谐) within all environments, and so avoid open criticism (批评) of each other. For example, instead of saying a person is rude, a Chinese person might say he is “very confident”. In this sense, the British and Chinese can understand each other better because both value harmony. 38. What does the phrase “read between the lines” mean in Paragraph 2? A. To read every word carefully. B. To understand the hidden meaning. C. To write between two lines of text. D. To translate a foreign language. 39. How do British and Chinese people communicate when they are unhappy with something? A. They use indirect or polite words. B. They stay silent and say nothing. C. They express their anger directly. D. They complain to a third person. 40. What can you infer when a British business partner says, “There are just a couple of small problems in your plan”? A. He is very satisfied with the plan. B. He is unhappy with the whole plan. C. The plan has two small problems. D. The plan can be carried out at once. 41. Which is the best title for the passage? A. How to Avoid Conflict in Communication B. Cultural Differences Between the UK and China C. Similarities in British and Chinese Communication D. The Importance of Guessing Meaning from Context 【答案】38. B 39. A 40. B 41. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要分析了英国人和中国人在沟通方式上的相似之处，尤其是双方都倾向于避免冲突、通过语境和言外之意表达真实想法，以及重视和谐的文化特点。 【38题详解】 第二段提到“outsiders must infer most meaning from context and from what is not said... Otherwise, misunderstandings may happen”，前文指出，在中国，外来者需要从语境和没有说出来的内容中推断含义，而不是从字面表达的内容中理解，随后说“You also need to read between the lines”，并指出如果不这样做，就可能产生误解，由此可见，“read between the lines”与前文“infer meaning from what is not said”意思相近，都是指理解话语中隐含的、没有直接表达出来的意思。 【39题详解】 由第三段“The British will do everything to avoid conflict”以及第四段“Chinese communication shows a very similar way of preventing conflict... avoid talking about challenges, mistakes, or problems directly”可知，英国人和中国人在对某事不满时都使用间接或礼貌的方式表达。 【40题详解】 由第三段“a British business partner who is deeply unhappy with your plan will probably say ‘there are just a couple of small problems’”可知，当英国商业伙伴说“你的计划只有几个小问题”时，实际意思是“他对整个计划不满意”。 【41题详解】 全文围绕英国人和中国人在沟通方式上的相似之处展开，尤其是在避免冲突、使用间接表达、重视和谐等方面，因此最佳标题为“Similarities in British and Chinese Communication（英国和中国沟通方式的相似之处）”。 D Education used to be done only by humans. Teachers gave lessons, checked students’ grades, and managed classroom environments. However, the rise of digital technology led to the development of online learning platforms (平台), digital classrooms, and online courses. And when we add AI (artificial intelligence), education can be brought to a completely new level. ① Every student has their own learning style, speed, and set of strengths and weaknesses. Traditional education systems often find it hard to meet each student’s needs because of class size, limited resources, and the one-size-fits-all method. ②AI can change that. With AI-driven learning platforms, students can learn through materials at their own speed. For example, platforms like Coursera, Khan Academy, and Duolingo use AI to see how the students are doing and then offer content, quizzes, and exercises for them. ③Traditionally, teachers are often busy with tasks such as grading, lesson planning, and tracking student progress. AI can take over some of these tasks, giving teachers more time to work directly with students. For example, AI tools can grade homework, exams, and quizzes much faster than humans. This is especially valuable for large classes where grading might take days or even weeks. Moreover, AI can help teachers with lesson planning by reading a lot of materials and suggesting resources that best match student learning needs. With AI, students who have trouble with language disabilities have more chances to receive education. AI-powered tools, such as Google Classroom and Microsoft Word, are developed to support students with learning difficulties such as dyslexia and ADHD. ④Text-to-speech, real-time translation, and sign language identification technologies can help students who face challenges in traditional educational environments. Looking ahead, AI’s role in education will continue to develop. As technology improves, we can expect AI to become part of learning platforms, making education more interesting and fun. 42. What is the main idea of paragraph 2? A. AI can help teachers grade homework faster. B. Traditional schools are perfect for every student. C. AI allows students to learn at their own speed. D. Online platforms like Coursera are free for all students. 43. How does the writer support the idea that AI helps teachers? A. By giving examples. B. By listing numbers. C. By telling stories. D. By showing surveys. 44. Where can we put the following sentence in the passage? Moreover, AI tools are making it easier for students who can’t see or hear well. A. ① B. ② C. ③ D. ④ 45. What is the purpose of the text? A. To introduce famous online learning platforms. B. To explain how teachers use AI in daily life. C. To show the important role of AI in education. D. To discuss problems of traditional education. 【答案】42. C 43. A 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了人工智能（AI）在教育中的多种应用及其带来的积极影响，包括个性化学习、减轻教师负担、帮助特殊需求学生等。 【42题详解】 第二段第二句指出：“Traditional education systems often find it hard to meet each student’s needs”，随后第三句提出“AI can change that”，并说明“students can learn through materials at their own speed”，因此本段主旨是AI让学生能按自己的节奏学习。 【43题详解】 第三段中，作者先提出“AI can take over some of these tasks”，然后举例说明，如“AI tools can grade homework”以及“AI can help teachers with lesson planning”，因此作者通过举例来支持AI对教师的帮助。 【44题详解】 第四段主要讲述AI如何帮助有语言障碍或学习困难的学生。题干句子提到“students who can’t see or hear well”，即视障或听障学生，与第四段中“text-to-speech, real-time translation, and sign language identification technologies”等内容直接相关，因此应放在④处。 【45题详解】 全文从多个方面（个性化学习、教师辅助、特殊教育支持、未来发展）说明AI在教育中的重要作用，目的是展示AI在教育领域的重要角色。 第二部分 非选择题（60分） 四、词汇运用（共10小题，每小题1分，计10分） 用括号中所给的汉语提示或单词的适当形式填空，使句意完整，每空一词。 46. It’s a pity that this musician died in his ________（四十）. 【答案】forties 【解析】 【详解】句意：遗憾的是，这位音乐家在他四十多岁时就去世了。句中“in his ______ (四十)”是表示 “在某人几十多岁时” 的固定表达，这类结构需要使用整十数的复数形式。基数词forty（四十）对应的复数形式是forties。固定搭配in one's+整数+数复数表示“在某人几十多岁时”，因此这里需要填 forties，表示“四十多岁”。 47. This kind of hair clips ________ her red skirt.（与……相配） 【答案】matches##matched 【解析】 【详解】句意：这种发夹和她的红裙子很配。根据句子结构可知，空处缺少谓语动词，结合给出的中文提示可知，match“与……相配”；该句可以是一般现在时或是一般过去时，主语是This kind，为单数，谓语动词用matches或matched。故填matches/matched。 48. Have the children ________ up everything on the table yet?（吃） 【答案】eaten 【解析】 【详解】句意：孩子们把桌子上所有的东西都吃完了吗？eat“吃”，动词，根据句首助动词have可知，该句时态是现在完成时，其结构为have/has+过去分词，eat的过去分词形式为eaten。故填eaten。 49. This book gives you a good idea of life in ________ Greece. (古代的) 【答案】ancient 【解析】 【详解】句意：这本书让你对古希腊的生活有了一个很好的了解。ancient“古代的”，形容词作定语，修饰其后的名词，故填ancient。 50. The overnight train runs every night of the week ________ Saturdays. (除……之外) 【答案】except 【解析】 【详解】句意：除周六外，夜班火车每周晚上都运行。由语境和汉语提示可知，“除……之外”译成：except；except表示“除去，不包括”，强调所排除的“不包括在内”，一般表示同类之间的关系，常同nothing, all, none, nobody, any等不定代词以及every连用。故填except。 51. An eye finds more ________ than two ears. (true) 【答案】truth 【解析】 【详解】句意：一只眼睛比两只耳朵能发现更多真理。根据句中“finds more”可知，此处填名词；true意为“真正的”，是形容词，其名词形式为truth，意为“真理”，结合语境，故填truth。 52. The flowers in He Garden look even ________ after the spring rain. (pretty) 【答案】prettier 【解析】 【详解】句意：何园里的花在春雨过后看起来更美了。根据提示可知，even为比较级的修饰语，此处缺形容词作系动词look的表语。故用其比较级形式prettier“更美的”。 53. She thought it impossible to talk about poems without ________ Li Bai. (mention) 【答案】mentioning 【解析】 【详解】句意：她认为谈论诗歌不可能不提到李白。由于“without”是介词，后跟动名词。故填mentioning。 54. Look! The elderly couple are sitting in the sunshine in the yard ________. (peace) 【答案】peacefully 【解析】 【详解】句意：看！这对老夫妇正安宁地坐在院子里的阳光下。句中“are sitting”为现在进行时的谓语动词，修饰动词需用副词。名词peace的副词形式需先加后缀-ful变为形容词peaceful，再加后缀-ly变为副词peacefully，意为“安静地、安宁地”。 55. The letter “x” often represents a(n) ________ number in some Math exercises. (know) 【答案】unknown 【解析】 【详解】句意：字母“x”在一些数学练习中经常代表未知数。根据“The letter ‘x’ often represents”可知，这里是说字母“x”表示一个未知数字。这里是形容词作定语，所给单词know是动词“知道”，这里用形容词unknown“不知道的，未知的”。故填unknown。 五、阅读表达（共5小题，每小题2分，计10分） 阅读并回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过10个词。 Snow forests make up about 30% of the world’s total forest areas. These wonderful woodlands are not as famous as the Amazon rainforests, but they are just as important. Snow forests are found in the far north of the world, in areas that are quite cold and usually have a lot of snowfall. They lie across parts of Canada, China, Finland, Japan, Norway, Russia, Sweden and America. Snow forests have very cold winters that can last up to six months. But even so, they are home to many kinds of animals, including foxes, mice and wolves. In the US and Canada, as many as five billion birds from more than three hundred species live in the snow forests in the breeding (繁殖) season. These woodlands perform an important job: helping to take in harmful gases. The gases are given off by burning coal, oil and gas, which can cause climate change. However, snow forests are facing several problems. Trees are being cut down faster and faster for their wood, which can be used for building. Some forests are being cleared to make space for new roads and houses, or to allow coal and gas industries to grow. What’s worse, as the world gets warmer, Canada and Russia have seen terrible fires spread through the forests. Luckily, environmental and wildlife groups around the world are working hard to protect snow forests. This means that cutting down trees is controlled in some areas and the forests are seen as areas of special scientific interest. When wood is needed, planting plans and careful forest management help to reduce the human influence so that the forests are managed in a way that they can survive and regrow. 56. What percent of world forests are snow forests? __________________________________________ 57. Where do snow forests mainly lie? __________________________________________ 58. Why are snow forests important against climate change? __________________________________________ 59. What two main problems are snow forests facing? __________________________________________ 60. What should we do to protect snow forests? (at least two ways) __________________________________________ 【答案】56. About 30%. 57. In the far north of the world./In areas that are quite cold and have much snowfall./In Canada, China. Finland, Japan, Norway, Russia, Sweden and America. 58. They take in harmful gases. 59. Being cut down and fires./Being cleared and fires. 60. Control cutting and replant trees. 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，介绍了雪林的分布、生态作用、面临的威胁及保护措施，强调雪林对环境的重要性。 【56题详解】 文章第一段直接给出答案：Snow forests make up about 30% of the world’s total forest areas.这句话明确说明，雪林约占世界森林总面积的30%。 【57题详解】 文章第二段直接给出分布：Snow forests are found in the far north of the world, in areas that are quite cold and usually have a lot of snowfall.
