Carlos Magdalena, known as the “plant savior,” is a plant researcher at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in London. He travels the world saving endangered plants from near extinction. While many conservation headlines focus on animals like whales, Magdalena argues that plants deserve equal attention. “Plants are the magicians of our universe,” he says.
Magdalena’s journey began with a shrub (灌木) called cafe marron from the island of Rodrigues. Thought to be extinct for most of the 20th century, a single survivor was found in 1980. Kew Gardens received a cutting, but experts could not get it to produce seeds. When Magdalena arrived in 2003, he experimented by changing the way he handled the flowers and growing the plant in warmer conditions. Suddenly, he succeeded in propagating it. The plant was later reintroduced to Rodrigues. This taught him a valuable lesson: even if a plant cannot be saved now, we may be able to save it in the future.
Another famous rescue involved the pygmy lily from Rwanda. Seeds from a German university had failed to grow. One night while cooking dinner, Magdalena had a breakthrough: the young leaves needed more CO2 from the air. He placed the seeds just one to two millimeters below the water’s surface, allowing the leaves to breathe. It worked. His dedication, he admits, is often misunderstood, but it makes incredible things possible.
Magdalena also discovered a giant water lily in Bolivia. At first glance, he knew it was different from the two known species. After years of research, including DNA analysis, he and his team confirmed it as a new species: Victoria boliviana, with leaves ten feet wide. “What else is out there?” he wonders. With up to 100,000 plant species still undiscovered, Magdalena’s mission is far from complete. He believes that protecting plants means protecting the base of life on Earth.
24. What does the underlined word “propagating” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Discovering. B. Recording. C. Increasing. D. Controlling.
25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The rescue of the pygmy lily. B. The value of CO2 for plants.
C. The research on a new species. D. The difficulty of growing seeds.
26. What can be learned about Magdalena from the last paragraph?
A. He knows all plants in the world clearly.
B. He has discovered 100,000 plant species.
C. He teaches many students to study plants.
D. He will continue his plant protection work.
27. Which of the following can best describe Magdalena?
A. Brave and humorous. B. Devoted and creative.
C. Honest and confident. D. Calm and careful.
C
One year after his death, a generative AI version of actor Val Kilmer is set to appear in an independent film titled As Deep as the Grave. Kilmer, best known for playing “Iceman” in Top Gun, had signed on for the movie before he passed away but could not perform due to his declining health.
Kilmer died at age 65 from pneumonia (肺炎) last April. In 2014, he was diagnosed with throat cancer, which led to multiple surgeries and eventually cost him his natural speaking voice. Before his death, Kilmer worked with an AI company to digitally recreate his voice—a technology that was already used in Top Gun: Maverick.
The actor’s family has given permission for his digital image to be used in the new film and will receive payment for it. His daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, said the role deeply appealed to her father, who was part Native American. The film is based on a true story about archaeologists (考古学家) in Arizona uncovering Native American history.
The use of AI in filmmaking has become highly debatable in Hollywood. Recently, a company called Xicoia launched an AI actor named “Tilly Norwood” and even released her first music video. The actors’ union, SAG-AFTRA, has publicly criticized such uses of AI actors. However, according to union rules, digital representations of performers are allowed if the actors give their approval. If an actor has died, permission must be provided by a legal representative or the union itself.
For their new film, the filmmakers, writer-director Coerte Voorhees and producer John Voorhees, said in an email, “We believe we are serving as a demonstrator for how to do it ethically and correctly, especially when working with the family of the late actor Kilmer.”
As As Deep as the Grave aims for release later this year, it raises important questions: Should AI bring back departed actors for new roles? And where should the line be drawn between artistic possibility and respect for the dead?
28. Why was Kilmer able to have voice performance in Top Gun: Maverick?
A. He received voice treatment. B. He turned to a singer for help.
C. AI helped rebuild his lost voice. D. He practiced speaking to recover.
29. What can be concluded about the production of the new film?
A. It followed the rules set by the actors’ union.
B. It was criticized by the actors’ union publicly.
C. It was opposed by Kilmer’s family members.
D. It was produced without the union’s approval.
30. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Artists refuse to use AI technology. B. AI can fully replace real actors in films.
C. AI use in films causes wide concern. D. The public ignores AI’s moral problems.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Rise of Independent Film Industry
B. SAG-AFTRA Criticizes New Music Video
C. Val Kilmer’s Final Battle with Pneumonia
D. AI Brings a Departed Actor Back to the Screen
D
As bubbles rippled across a frozen Finnish lake, diver Daan Jacobs surfaced from a hole carved into thick ice. He had just spent 45 minutes eight meters below the surface, where sunlight shone through the Arctic ice and fish swam around rocks. It is a remote world few will ever see, especially in winter, when temperatures on land can drop to minus 40 degrees.
Jacobs is a biodiversity adviser from the Netherlands, but he is also one of a growing number of people trained to dive under polar ice. He recently took part in a Polar Scientific Diving class in northern Finland. The program, designed by the Finnish Scientific Diving Academy, aims to train the next generation of scientists to study life beneath the Arctic and Antarctic ice.
Why is this training so urgent? The Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the planet. Higher temperatures cause polar bears to become weaker and hungrier because they depend on sea ice to hunt. In Antarctica, melting ice sheets are raising sea levels and disrupting ocean ecosystems. To understand how climate change affects plants and animals that live under the ice, scientists need to go there themselves. However, experts say only a few hundred people in the world have the necessary diving skills and scientific background.
According to British Antarctic Survey marine biologist Simon Morley, dragging nets across the seafloor would destroy the habitat, and robots can usually pick up only one specimen (样本) at a time. “A diver can go down and pick up 12 urchins (海胆), put them in a bag without affecting the rest of the system,” Morley explained.
During the training, students must learn to dive under ice nearly a meter thick in water just above freezing. They also face freezing air temperatures and strong winds. The topside support team must operate equipment to keep divers safe while avoiding frostbite. Divers must also learn to handle emergencies, such as when someone cannot find the exit hole.
Despite the difficulties, the divers describe the experience as incredible. “It looks incredible from beneath the ice,” said Caroline Chen, a scientific diver.
32. What does the author want to show by mentioning polar bears in paragraph 3?
A. Their living and hunting habits. B. The bad effect of Arctic warming.
C. The difficulties they face in winter. D. Their value in the Arctic food chain.
33. What does Simon Morley think of human divers?
A. They are necessary for the research. B. They destroy the living environment.
C. They are replaced by robots completely. D. They work more slowly than machines.
34. What can we learn about the training?
A. It is fit for all common divers. B. It is dangerous and challenging.
C. It occurs in Antarctic coastal areas. D. It needs no support from the topside.
35. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To tell risks of sea level rising. B. To show beauty under Arctic ice.
C. To call on protecting polar bears. D. To introduce polar scientific diving.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The morning started with rain pattering gently against the window. Twelve-year-old Mia sat quietly on her bed, watching raindrops race down the glass, her heart as heavy as the dark clouds outside. Downstairs, her parents’ voices rose and fell with sharp tension, making her sink deeper into her pillow (枕头). “Can’t they just talk without shouting?” she whispered to Whiskers, her cat, who rubbed against her leg as if sharing her sadness.
Mia’s family was under great stress recently. Her father, an architect, buried himself in work and stayed out late every night. Her mother, a nurse, was frequently on call and seldom rested at home. They hardly had meals together, and whenever they met, quarrels (争吵) broke out easily. Mia felt as if she were walking on eggshells at home, and her younger brother Josh shut himself in his room, losing himself in video games to avoid the uncomfortable atmosphere.
That day, Mia’s class took part in a special communication workshop at the Community Center. Ms. Patel, a kind family mediator (调解人), taught students how to express their true feelings and practice active listening. At first, Mia considered the activities meaningless, but she soon learned the power of sincere words and patient listening. She practiced with her friends Oliver and Emma, learning to speak gently instead of keeping quiet and to listen carefully instead of cutting in.
When Mia shared her family troubles with her friends, she received warm encouragement from them, which gave her much courage. “You’re brave for wanting to talk to them,” Emma said softly. Oliver nodded in agreement, adding, “Your efforts will definitely make a difference.”
The next morning, she asked her father and mother nervously if they could have a talk after dinner. Surprised but gentle, her parents agreed immediately.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After dinner, Mia sat with her parents at the dining table.

Carlos Magdalena, known as the “plant savior,” is a plant researcher at the Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, in London. He travels the world saving endangered plants from near extinction. While many conservation headlines focus on animals like whales, Magdalena argues that plants deserve equal attention. “Plants are the magicians of our universe,” he says.
Magdalena’s journey began with a shrub (灌木) called cafe marron from the island of Rodrigues. Thought to be extinct for most of the 20th century, a single survivor was found in 1980. Kew Gardens received a cutting, but experts could not get it to produce seeds. When Magdalena arrived in 2003, he experimented by changing the way he handled the flowers and growing the plant in warmer conditions. Suddenly, he succeeded in propagating it. The plant was later reintroduced to Rodrigues. This taught him a valuable lesson: even if a plant cannot be saved now, we may be able to save it in the future.
Another famous rescue involved the pygmy lily from Rwanda. Seeds from a German university had failed to grow. One night while cooking dinner, Magdalena had a breakthrough: the young leaves needed more CO2 from the air. He placed the seeds just one to two millimeters below the water’s surface, allowing the leaves to breathe. It worked. His dedication, he admits, is often misunderstood, but it makes incredible things possible.
Magdalena also discovered a giant water lily in Bolivia. At first glance, he knew it was different from the two known species. After years of research, including DNA analysis, he and his team confirmed it as a new species: Victoria boliviana, with leaves ten feet wide. “What else is out there?” he wonders. With up to 100,000 plant species still undiscovered, Magdalena’s mission is far from complete. He believes that protecting plants means protecting the base of life on Earth.
24. What does the underlined word “propagating” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Discovering. B. Recording. C. Increasing. D. Controlling.
25. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. The rescue of the pygmy lily. B. The value of CO2 for plants.
C. The research on a new species. D. The difficulty of growing seeds.
26. What can be learned about Magdalena from the last paragraph?
A. He knows all plants in the world clearly.
B. He has discovered 100,000 plant species.
C. He teaches many students to study plants.
D. He will continue his plant protection work.
27. Which of the following can best describe Magdalena?
A. Brave and humorous. B. Devoted and creative.
C. Honest and confident. D. Calm and careful.
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. B
【解析】
【导语】主要介绍被誉为植物拯救者的卡洛斯·马格达莱纳,讲述他多次拯救濒危植物、发现新物种并坚守植物保护使命的故事。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“Kew Gardens received a cutting, but experts could not get it to produce seeds. When Magdalena arrived in 2003, he experimented by changing the way he handled the flowers and growing the plant in warmer conditions. Suddenly, he succeeded in propagating it. The plant was later reintroduced to Rodrigues. ( 邱园曾获得该植物的一截插枝,但专家始终无法让它结出种子。2003年玛格达莱娜接手后,他尝试改变花朵的培育方式,并将植株置于更温暖的环境中种植。最终他成功propagating这种植物的,之后该物种被重新引种至罗德里格斯岛。)”可知,前文无法结种繁育,后文经他改良培育方式获得成功并重新引种,由此可推断,划线单词propagating为“繁育、增殖”之意,与Increasing表意相符。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。通读第三段,尤其是第三段中的“Another famous rescue involved the pygmy lily from Rwanda. Seeds from a German university had failed to grow. One night while cooking dinner, Magdalena had a breakthrough: the young leaves needed more CO2 from the air. (另一次著名的拯救行动关乎来自卢旺达的微型睡莲。德国一所大学的种子始终无法培育生长,某天晚饭时他突发灵感:幼苗叶片需要空气中更多的二氧化碳。)”可知,本段主要讲述他拯救卢旺达微型睡莲的经历。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“With up to 100,000 plant species still undiscovered, Magdalena’s mission is far from complete. He believes that protecting plants means protecting the base of life on Earth. (仍有多达十万种植物尚未被发现,马格达莱纳的使命远未完成。他认为保护植物就是保护地球生命的根基。)”可知,他的使命尚未结束,将会继续从事植物保护工作。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文,尤其是第三段中的“One night while cooking dinner, Magdalena had a breakthrough: the young leaves needed more CO2 from the air. (某天晚上做晚饭时,马格达莱纳有了一个突破性想法:幼苗叶片需要空气中更多的二氧化碳。)”以及“His dedication, he admits, is often misunderstood, but it makes incredible things possible. (他坦言自己的专注投入常常被误解,却能成就不可思议的事情。)”可知,他善于突发灵感、创新培育方法体现富有创造力,长期投身濒危植物拯救事业体现甘于奉献,因此他是专注投入且富有创造力的人。
C
One year after his death, a generative AI version of actor Val Kilmer is set to appear in an independent film titled As Deep as the Grave. Kilmer, best known for playing “Iceman” in Top Gun, had signed on for the movie before he passed away but could not perform due to his declining health.
Kilmer died at age 65 from pneumonia (肺炎) last April. In 2014, he was diagnosed with throat cancer, which led to multiple surgeries and eventually cost him his natural speaking voice. Before his death, Kilmer worked with an AI company to digitally recreate his voice—a technology that was already used in Top Gun: Maverick.
The actor’s family has given permission for his digital image to be used in the new film and will receive payment for it. His daughter, Mercedes Kilmer, said the role deeply appealed to her father, who was part Native American. The film is based on a true story about archaeologists (考古学家) in Arizona uncovering Native American history.
The use of AI in filmmaking has become highly debatable in Hollywood. Recently, a company called Xicoia launched an AI actor named “Tilly Norwood” and even released her first music video. The actors’ union, SAG-AFTRA, has publicly criticized such uses of AI actors. However, according to union rules, digital representations of performers are allowed if the actors give their approval. If an actor has died, permission must be provided by a legal representative or the union itself.
For their new film, the filmmakers, writer-director Coerte Voorhees and producer John Voorhees, said in an email, “We believe we are serving as a demonstrator for how to do it ethically and correctly, especially when working with the family of the late actor Kilmer.”
As As Deep as the Grave aims for release later this year, it raises important questions: Should AI bring back departed actors for new roles? And where should the line be drawn between artistic possibility and respect for the dead?
28. Why was Kilmer able to have voice performance in Top Gun: Maverick?
A. He received voice treatment. B. He turned to a singer for help.
C. AI helped rebuild his lost voice. D. He practiced speaking to recover.
29. What can be concluded about the production of the new film?
A. It followed the rules set by the actors’ union.
B. It was criticized by the actors’ union publicly.
C. It was opposed by Kilmer’s family members.
D. It was produced without the union’s approval.
30. What does the last paragraph suggest?
A. Artists refuse to use AI technology. B. AI can fully replace real actors in films.
C. AI use in films causes wide concern. D. The public ignores AI’s moral problems.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Rise of Independent Film Industry
B. SAG-AFTRA Criticizes New Music Video
C. Val Kilmer’s Final Battle with Pneumonia
D. AI Brings a Departed Actor Back to the Screen
【答案】28. C 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了演员Val Kilmer去世一年后,其AI数字形象将参演新片,这一事件也引发了业界对AI在影视中应用以及艺术创作与尊重逝者之间界限的讨论。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Before his death, Kilmer worked with an AI company to digitally recreate his voice—a technology that was already used in Top Gun: Maverick.(在他去世前,Kilmer与一家人工智能公司合作,通过数字化技术重现了自己的声音——这一技术已在《壮志凌云2:独行侠》中得到应用。)”可知,Kilmer能在《壮志凌云2:独行侠》中有声音表演是因为人工智能帮助重建了他失去的声音。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“The actors’ union, SAG-AFTRA, has publicly criticized such uses of AI actors. However, according to union rules, digital representations of performers are allowed if the actors give their approval. If an actor has died, permission must be provided by a legal representative or the union itself.(演员工会 SAG-AFTRA 已公开批评了此类使用人工智能演员的行为。然而,根据工会的规定,如果演员本人同意,那么演员的数字化形象是被允许存在的。如果演员已经去世,那么必须获得其合法代表或工会本身的许可。)”及第五段“For their new film, the filmmakers, writer-director Coerte Voorhees and producer John Voorhees, said in an email, “We believe we are serving as a demonstrator for how to do it ethically and correctly, especially when working with the family of the late actor Kilmer.”(在他们的新影片中,导演兼编剧Coerte Voorhees和制片人John Voorhees在一封电子邮件中表示:“我们认为我们正在为如何以合乎道德和正确的方式进行此类操作提供示范,尤其是在与已故演员Kilmer的家属合作时。”)”可推断,这部新电影在制作过程中,针对使用已故演员Val Kilmer数字形象这一关键环节,是严格遵循了演员工会所制定的规则的。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“As As Deep as the Grave aims for release later this year, it raises important questions: Should AI bring back departed actors for new roles? And where should the line be drawn between artistic possibility and respect for the dead?(由于《深如坟墓》计划在今年晚些时候上映,这引发了重要的问题:人工智能是否应该让已故演员重新出演新角色?以及在艺术可能性与对逝者的尊重之间,应该划出怎样的界限?)”可推断,人工智能在电影中的使用引起了广泛关注。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知,文章主要讲述了演员Val Kilmer去世后,其生成式人工智能版本将出演一部独立电影,同时探讨了人工智能在电影制作中的使用这一现象,包括演员工会的规定、电影制作遵循的规则以及引发的关于人工智能是否应让已故演员回归等问题的思考。D项“人工智能让已故演员重返银幕”适合作本文的标题。

As bubbles rippled across a frozen Finnish lake, diver Daan Jacobs surfaced from a hole carved into thick ice. He had just spent 45 minutes eight meters below the surface, where sunlight shone through the Arctic ice and fish swam around rocks. It is a remote world few will ever see, especially in winter, when temperatures on land can drop to minus 40 degrees.
Jacobs is a biodiversity adviser from the Netherlands, but he is also one of a growing number of people trained to dive under polar ice. He recently took part in a Polar Scientific Diving class in northern Finland. The program, designed by the Finnish Scientific Diving Academy, aims to train the next generation of scientists to study life beneath the Arctic and Antarctic ice.
Why is this training so urgent? The Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the planet. Higher temperatures cause polar bears to become weaker and hungrier because they depend on sea ice to hunt. In Antarctica, melting ice sheets are raising sea levels and disrupting ocean ecosystems. To understand how climate change affects plants and animals that live under the ice, scientists need to go there themselves. However, experts say only a few hundred people in the world have the necessary diving skills and scientific background.
According to British Antarctic Survey marine biologist Simon Morley, dragging nets across the seafloor would destroy the habitat, and robots can usually pick up only one specimen (样本) at a time. “A diver can go down and pick up 12 urchins (海胆), put them in a bag without affecting the rest of the system,” Morley explained.
During the training, students must learn to dive under ice nearly a meter thick in water just above freezing. They also face freezing air temperatures and strong winds. The topside support team must operate equipment to keep divers safe while avoiding frostbite. Divers must also learn to handle emergencies, such as when someone cannot find the exit hole.
Despite the difficulties, the divers describe the experience as incredible. “It looks incredible from beneath the ice,” said Caroline Chen, a scientific diver.
32. What does the author want to show by mentioning polar bears in paragraph 3?
A. Their living and hunting habits. B. The bad effect of Arctic warming.
C. The difficulties they face in winter. D. Their value in the Arctic food chain.
33. What does Simon Morley think of human divers?
A. They are necessary for the research. B. They destroy the living environment.
C. They are replaced by robots completely. D. They work more slowly than machines.
34. What can we learn about the training?
A. It is fit for all common divers. B. It is dangerous and challenging.
C. It occurs in Antarctic coastal areas. D. It needs no support from the topside.
35. What is the writer’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To tell risks of sea level rising. B. To show beauty under Arctic ice.
C. To call on protecting polar bears. D. To introduce polar scientific diving.
【答案】32. B 33. A 34. B 35. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了由芬兰科学潜水学院设计的极地科学潜水课程,包括其培训目的、紧迫性、人类潜水员的必要性以及训练的困难等内容。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The Arctic is warming four times faster than the rest of the planet. Higher temperatures cause polar bears to become weaker and hungrier because they depend on sea ice to hunt.(北极地区的气温变暖速度是全球其他地区的四倍。气温升高导致北极熊变得虚弱且饥饿,因为它们捕食需要依靠海冰)”可知,作者通过北极熊的例子是为了说明北极变暖带来的不良影响。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“According to British Antarctic Survey marine biologist Simon Morley, dragging nets across the seafloor would destroy the habitat, and robots can usually pick up only one specimen (样本) at a time. “A diver can go down and pick up 12 urchins (海胆), put them in a bag without affecting the rest of the system,” Morley explained.(据英国南极调查局的海洋生物学家西蒙·莫利称,用拖网在海底拖曳会破坏栖息地,而机器人通常一次只能采集一个样本。“潜水员可以潜入海底,抓取12只海胆,将其放入袋子中,而不会影响到其他部分的系统。”莫利解释道)”可知,他认为人类潜水员对研究是必要的。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“During the training, students must learn to dive under ice nearly a meter thick in water just above freezing. They also face freezing air temperatures and strong winds. The topside support team must operate equipment to keep divers safe while avoiding frostbite. Divers must also learn to handle emergencies, such as when someone cannot find the exit hole.(在训练过程中,学生们必须学会在接近冰面一米厚、水温接近冰点的水域中潜水。他们还要面对严寒的空气温度和强劲的风。水面支持团队必须操作设备来保障潜水员的安全,同时防止冻伤。潜水员还必须学会应对紧急情况,比如有人找不到出口洞口时的情况)”可知,训练是危险且具有挑战性的。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Jacobs is a biodiversity adviser from the Netherlands, but he is also one of a growing number of people trained to dive under polar ice. He recently took part in a Polar Scientific Diving class in northern Finland. The program, designed by the Finnish Scientific Diving Academy, aims to train the next generation of scientists to study life beneath the Arctic and Antarctic ice.(雅各布斯是来自荷兰的一位生物多样性顾问,但他也是越来越多接受过在极地冰层下潜水训练的人士之一。他最近参加了在芬兰北部举行的极地科学潜水课程。该课程由芬兰科学潜水学院设计,旨在培养下一代科学家,以研究北极和南极冰层下的生物)”以及文章开篇通过Daan Jacobs在芬兰冰冻湖面下潜水的经历引入,接着介绍了北极科学潜水课程,阐述了这种训练的紧迫性、人类潜水员的必要性以及训练的困难等内容。由此可推断,作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍极地科学潜水。

【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了在现代恋爱中有助于拉近与伴侣距离的实用短信交流策略。
【36题详解】
根据上文“In the modern era of romance, technology plays a big role in how we connect with partners. Video calls and phone calls are great for deep conversations, but texting is the most popular way for daily communication. This allows couples to stay connected throughout the day without interrupting work or school.(在当今的浪漫时代,科技在我们与伴侣的交流方式中扮演着重要角色。视频通话和电话通话非常适合进行深入的交谈,但短信则是日常交流中最受欢迎的方式。这种方式能让情侣们全天保持联系,同时也不会影响工作或学习)”以及后文“The way you text matters as much as the words you choose. Here are useful texting strategies to grow closer to your partner.(你发送信息的方式和你所选用的词汇一样重要。以下是一些有助于增进与伴侣关系的实用短信交流策略)”可知,前文铺垫了短信是情侣日常最受欢迎的沟通方式,后文引出“发短信的方式本身和内容一样重要,接下来分享沟通策略”。B选项“然而,只发信息是不够的”承上启下,符合逻辑。
【37题详解】
根据上文“Reply to messages in a timely manner. In the early stages of a relationship, trust hasn’t fully been built yet.(及时回复消息。在一段关系的初期阶段,信任尚未完全建立起来)”以及后文“Many young adults prefer a response within fifteen minutes. This doesn’t mean you have to be tied to your phone. It just shows your partner that they are a priority, making it clear you’re interested and reliable.(许多年轻人希望能在15分钟内得到回复。这并不意味着你必须一直盯着手机。这只是表明你的伴侣对你来说是最重要的,从而清楚地表明你对他们很关心并且是可靠的)”可知,本段主旨是“及时回复信息”,前文提到恋爱早期信任还未完全建立,后文说明年轻人普遍希望15分钟内得到回复。F选项“合理时间内回复有助于建立安全感”贴合主旨,衔接上下文。
【38题详解】
根据上文“● Find a healthy balance. Constant messaging may seem romantic at first, but it can cause burnout. Texting too much can make you run out of topics or feel tired.(●调整好平衡状态。一开始,持续不断地发送信息可能看起来很浪漫,但长期这样做可能会导致身心疲惫。发送信息过多可能会让你失去话题,或者感到疲惫不堪)”、后文“The key is to find a rhythm that works for both of you. It’s healthy to take breaks and focus on your own life.(关键在于找到一种对你们双方都适用的相处方式。适当休息并专注于自己的生活也是有益的)”以及本段主旨是“找到沟通的平衡”可知,前文说了“发太多短信会让人疲惫、耗尽话题”,后文点明要找到双方都舒适的节奏。E选项“发太少会让伴侣觉得被忽视”补充了另一种极端的问题,呼应“找平衡”的核心,逻辑通顺。
【39题详解】
根据后文“Some people like frequent updates, while others save meaningful talks for the evening. Misunderstandings happen when expectations don’t match. Do what you promise, and avoid overanalyzing silence. An unanswered message usually means your partner is busy, not upset.(有些人喜欢频繁地交流更新信息,而另一些人则会把有意义的交谈留到晚上进行。当期望与实际情况不相符时,就会产生误解。要信守承诺,避免过度解读沉默。未回复的消息通常意味着你的伴侣很忙,而非心情不好)”以及本段主旨是“Clarify your expectations.(理清彼此的期望)”可知,后文举例说明“有人喜欢频繁分享,有人偏爱晚上深度交流,期望不匹配会产生误解”。D选项“每对情侣都有不同的沟通风格”引出下文的差异,符合语境。
【40题详解】
根据后文“Texting is useful but shouldn’t replace face-to-face interaction. Being too dependent on smartphones lowers relationship satisfaction. Set aside time to disconnect from your devices. Use texting for quick thoughts or setting dates, and save deep talks for when you’re together.(发短信是有用的,但不应取代面对面的交流。过度依赖智能手机会降低人际关系的满意度。要留出时间让自己与设备“断开连接”。将短信用于快速表达想法或安排约会,而将深入的交谈留到与对方在一起的时候进行)”可知,本段点明“短信不能替代面对面交流,要留出时间放下电子设备,深度沟通留到见面”。A选项“知道什么时候该放下电子设备”准确概括本段主旨,对应后文的disconnect from your devices,符合要求。

The rapid rise of artificial intelligence has made students increasingly reliant on new technologies for reading and writing, weakening their ability to focus.

【56题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:南京大学的丹寒松教授注意到了英语专业学生中一个令人担忧的趋势:许多人在阅读长篇小说甚至短篇小说时遇到了困难。此处修饰名词trend,应用-ing结尾形容词worrying,作定语,表示“令人担忧的”。
【57题详解】
考查名词。句意:他认为,这种缺乏耐心是教育领域的一个全球性问题。此处作介词of的宾语,应用名词patience,表示“耐心”,不可数。
【58题详解】
考查冠词。句意:即使阅读100到200页也经常被视为一项挑战。challenge是可数名词,此处表泛指,应用不定冠词,且challenge是发音以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用a。
【59题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:2月1日,一项促进阅读的新规定生效。根据On February 1可知,事情发生在过去,应用一般过去时,所以谓语动词用动词的过去式形式took。

【63题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他认为政府应该营造一个将阅读视为“酷”的社会环境。分析句子结构可知,此处引导的是一个限定性定语从句,先行词是environment,在从句中作地点状语,应用关系副词where引导。
【64题详解】
考查介词。句意:她将阅读描述为一场能激发想象力的“寻宝之旅”。此处为固定短语 describe...as...”,表示“把……描述为……”。
【65题详解】
考查形容词。句意:尽管她的许多同龄人更喜欢旅行或电子游戏,但她认为阅读仍然是一项极其宝贵且富有意义的活动。此处修饰名词activity,应该用形容词valuable作定语,表示“有价值的”。

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The morning started with rain pattering gently against the window. Twelve-year-old Mia sat quietly on her bed, watching raindrops race down the glass, her heart as heavy as the dark clouds outside. Downstairs, her parents’ voices rose and fell with sharp tension, making her sink deeper into her pillow (枕头). “Can’t they just talk without shouting?” she whispered to Whiskers, her cat, who rubbed against her leg as if sharing her sadness.
Mia’s family was under great stress recently. Her father, an architect, buried himself in work and stayed out late every night. Her mother, a nurse, was frequently on call and seldom rested at home. They hardly had meals together, and whenever they met, quarrels (争吵) broke out easily. Mia felt as if she were walking on eggshells at home, and her younger brother Josh shut himself in his room, losing himself in video games to avoid the uncomfortable atmosphere.
That day, Mia’s class took part in a special communication workshop at the Community Center. Ms. Patel, a kind family mediator (调解人), taught students how to express their true feelings and practice active listening. At first, Mia considered the activities meaningless, but she soon learned the power of sincere words and patient listening. She practiced with her friends Oliver and Emma, learning to speak gently instead of keeping quiet and to listen carefully instead of cutting in.
When Mia shared her family troubles with her friends, she received warm encouragement from them, which gave her much courage. “You’re brave for wanting to talk to them,” Emma said softly. Oliver nodded in agreement, adding, “Your efforts will definitely make a difference.”
The next morning, she asked her father and mother nervously if they could have a talk after dinner. Surprised but gentle, her parents agreed immediately.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
After dinner, Mia sat with her parents at the dining table.

In the following days, sweet changes took place at home.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
After dinner, Mia sat with her parents at the dining table. She tried to steady her shaking voice. “I know both of you are tired from busy work, and I truly thank you for everything you do for us,” she said slowly. “But I miss the days when we laughed together, and I feel sad when you argue all the time.” Hearing her words, her father sighed and held her hand tightly, apologizing for having ignored the family. Her mother, eyes filled with tears, promised to spend more time together on weekends and communicate calmly. A heavy weight was lifted off Mia’s shoulders at that moment.
In the following days, sweet changes took place at home. Mia’s parents began to cherish the time they spent with each other, and cooked and cleaned together on weekends. Josh even put aside his games and joined the family talks. Mia came to realize that small conflicts are common in every family, but mutual understanding can melt all coldness. The rain had stopped, and warmth returned to her home. Through sincere communication, her family walked out of the dark days and embraced a peaceful and loving life again.
