Knowing you take a great interest in Chinese culture, I’m writing to highly recommend the Online Digital Exhibition about the Dragon Boat Festival now being held at the museum in my city. This Online Digital Exhibition presents a full picture of Dragon Boat Festival culture. It covers the origin of the festival in memory of the patriotic poet (爱国诗人) Qu Yuan, various traditional customs, classic folk artworks as well as ancient cultural relics related to the festival. With vivid 3D images, immersive VR scenes and intelligent AI guidance (依托生动的3D影像、沉浸式VR场景以及智能AI讲解引导), it shows zongzi-making skills, grand dragon boat races, fragrant wormwood (艾蒿) hanging and other time-honored traditions. Besides, it also displays traditional poems, paintings and folk stories, allowing viewers to explore every cultural detail easily online. Simple clicks and personalized guidance enable you to enjoy interactive games and realistic virtual displays (逼真的虚拟展示), bringing you an amazing and lively festive experience. Personally, the showcase is a real must-see. If interested, you will definitely enjoy traditional Chinese culture through high-tech fun! Yours, Li Hua 第二节： Early the next morning, I dragged the cardboard down to the corner. Soft golden sunlight filtered through the leaves, and gentle breezes brushed the green grass. Before I could fix the sign in place, my brothers and sisters turned up with trash bags and gloves. “Mama promised we’d back you up, remember?” my eldest brother smiled warmly.(利用具体动作让续写打动人心) I stuck the sign firmly into the ground, my elder sister knelt down and carefully pulled out weeds by the roots, my younger sister bent low to pick up dirty plastic bags, and my elder brother swept dry leaves and branches into a pile. We watered the dry soil, tidied up the messy grass, and brushed dust off the stones. Every small action was filled with our love for this corner. One after another, passing neighbors paused to read my cupboard, their expressions shifting from curiosity to empathy. Some hurried home to fetch brooms, while others brought flower seeds to offer a helping hand. Soon Mama arrived, handing me a bottle of water and whispering gently, “This lovely corner deserves to be well-preserved.” Working together, we regained its natural beauty, just like the treasure I had always cherished — and I was never alone in this fight. Late that night, when I was with my siblings, Mum stormed in, “The corner stays ours!” We all burst into cheers with wild joy. Mama explained that the city had noticed our efforts and eventually changed the original plan, turning the vacant land into a peaceful community garden. In the days that followed, we sowed diverse flower seeds and placed a wooden bench there. Before long, colorful blossoms bloomed in clusters (花团锦簇), with butterflies dancing gently among fragrant petals and birds echoing melodious songs amid leafy branches. Bathed in soft twilight (暮色), neighbors rested leisurely and children played with laughter.A small sign reading “Our Corner” was planted to honor our joint efforts. This precious experience left me deeply enlightened that one tiny spark of courage, combined with shared kindness and teamwork, can revive fading beauty (唤醒流逝的美好) and work miracles in ordinary life. /This unforgettable journey struck me deeply that even a faint voice of courage, when woven with collective warmth, can transform an empty corner into a place of stunning beauty. (点题) 听力材料： Text 1 M: Our skiing holiday is booked for next week, isn’t it? W: Yes, all sorted. Do you need to adjust anything? M: I decided it might be better if the kids stayed with their grandparents. They’ll enjoy the quality time. Text 2 M: Emily, what do you think of Eric? I think he pays a lot of attention to things and notices more about the details than most people do. W: You are quite right. Besides that, he’s also very good at telling jokes. Text 3 M: Have you seen Zootopia 2? My kids say it’s a movie worth seeing. W: No, not yet. But I’ve heard good things about its vivid new characters and the funny interactions between Judy and Nick. M: Yeah, but some reviews say it lacks new ideas. Text 4 W: So Charlie, have you heard back about the job you applied for last week? M: Yes, I just got an email yesterday. I’m scheduled to have an interview with the manager a week from today. W: That’s great. What did they ask you to prepare for the interview? M: They said nothing had to be prepared, but I need to dress up so I will do some shopping tomorrow. Text 5 W: Well, are you ready to pay? M: Actually, there’s a problem with our bill. We ordered 2 beers, but you charged us $9. W: My apologies! I must have mixed up the tables. I’ll take $5 off and give you a new bill. Text 6 M: Hey, Mrs. Carter, some of us want to hike further up the Great Wall, just to that next watchtower. Is that cool? W: Sure, but be careful on those steps. Some spots are steep. What time can you be back? M: No problem. We’ll meet you at the bus by 3:25; promise. W: 3:20, bus leaves at 3:30 sharp. And I’m not explaining to your parents why you got lost in China. M: Deal. Thanks, Mrs. Carter. Text 7 M: Can we do something about the temperature in here? I have so many emails to deal with today, but my hands are so cold that I can hardly type my report! W: I know. I’ve been struggling too. But the heat probably won’t be turned on until the end of the month. M: Why not? W: It’s a part of the company’s plans to save energy. M: Well, I can understand that. But how are we supposed to work in these conditions? W: I guess we always have the choice to work from home. M: True. But before my youngest daughter starts school, it’s just too difficult for me to do that. I wouldn’t be able to focus. W: Then I think we should talk to the boss about what can be done, otherwise people will start getting ill. Text 8 W: Harry! What’s this in the mail for you from the bank? M: That must be my credit card, Mom. W: A credit card? Why do you need a credit card? M: Well, I thought it would be convenient to have one. W: But look at the letter you have received. The interest rate is so high! M: The bank clerk seemed very nice, and she promised it wouldn’t be so high for students. W: She was just using her marketing skills. M: But what can I do now? I can’t cancel the card until next year. W: Let me go through the terms carefully. Well, it seems there is hope. It says here that, since you are a student, they will cancel the card with no charge if you provide three reasons why you no longer want the credit card, along with a letter from your parents. Text 9 M: Hello, everyone. Welcome to our program. Today, we are fortunate to have a special guest with us. Her name is Yang Liu, an inheritor of bamboo drifting. When did you begin to learn bamboo drifting? W: I learned it from my grandmother when I was 7. M: Could you share your learning experience with us? W: With pleasure. Usually, the bamboo under my feet is about 9 meters long, and the bamboo in my hands is about 5 meters long. I fell in the water several times when I was practicing. So keeping my body from falling into the water is the most difficult part of bamboo drifting. M: What makes you keep going? W: Just the love for the ancient skill. In the past 17 years, I have been drifting all year round, in winter cold and summer heat. Now, I’m able to do “Chinese qinggong” on the water. And I put dance into bamboo drifting to make it more graceful. As hanfu culture has been on the rise, I started wearing hanfu when performing, creating a beautiful feel. M: We all know that you registered on social media platforms and posted your videos. W: Yes. I want to spread it to other countries, so that more people around the world will like Chinese culture. M: I totally agree with you. It was good to talk to you. I feel like I always learn so much more when I get the chance to speak with you about these things. Text 10 In the northeastern American state of Massachusetts, people are combining a form of exercise for the body and spirit with young pigs. The pigs from a nearby farm come to play among people in the yoga class at Ashley Bousquet’s business in the town of Spencer. Delbridge drove almost two hours to attend a class with the pigs. She said it was worth the drive. Doing yoga with animals helped keep her mind from moving on to other things. Yoga classes with animals are not new. In fact, goats might have been the first. Lainey Morse started yoga classes with goats in the state of Oregon in 2016. She found she felt happier and more at ease around goats. Rebecca Purchase is a volunteer coordinator. She said that if animal yoga includes shelter or unwanted animals, it might even encourage people to give them a home. If they’re not the right animals, the yoga could also be stressful to the animals that join. 应用文话题补充：（传统文化与现代科技） [2026南昌二模] 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Leo准备来中国留学。他自己构思了两个中文名字：“李勇”和“李奥”，写信向你征求意见。请你给他回一封邮件，内容包括： （1）推荐其中一个名字；（2）说明推荐理由。 Dear Leo, Delighted to hear that you’re coming to study in China!

What makes them particularly profound is their deep cultural essence (深厚的文化内涵), embodying philosophical ideas and Chinese values. (体现了哲学思想和中国价值观) Deeply rooted in Chinese culture, these characters carry the soul of our nation, record the history of our country and pass down our time-honored traditions. (深深扎根于中国文化之中，这些汉字承载着我们民族的灵魂，记录着我们国家的历史，并传承着我们悠久的传统。) To learn Chinese characters effectively, I suggest starting with basic principles to grasp their foundational visual logic and then practicing them by hand to physically experience the character’s grace and vitality, thus making the learning process deeply immersive and meaningful.

Yellowing papers and black-and-white photographs spilled out its sides. In handwritten Spanish, the label on its cover read Historia Antigua. Ancient History. This was clearly my grandfather’s handwriting. Within the first few pages, Abuelo had recounted centuries of our family’s history, including diaries, travelogues and letters from Abuelo’s youth — a treasure trove (宝库) of memories and research. From that day on, I mostly read the Historia Antigua together with Abuelo. We discussed language, identity, and history; we drew and redrew family trees, and reviewed ancestors’ names and backstories as though they’d be coming over at any moment. Recently, I began traveling the country to discuss my book about the search for traces (踪迹) of Abuelo’s father. What I’ve realized is that time and inertia (惰性) remain the biggest challenge, because many family stories went unrecorded until it’s too late. Once the guardians of the answers pass away, we are more likely to be left with lots of documents to sort through — birth certificates, DNA results, unlabeled photographs — rather than hours of stories. For those of us still lucky to do so, we must ask questions of our parents and grandparents now. Ask about otherwise ordinary objects that could contain clues about the past. Record kitchen table conversations or organize talk-show style interviews between older and younger relatives, with the rest of the family as the audience. If you are of an older generation, it is your turn to speak. Think about how you can make these stories come alive, and what tools you can use to stimulate interest among younger relatives. Family stories are currency for survival. They make their way into the traditions we pick up along the journeys of our lives. They define who we are in worlds foreign and familiar, remembered now but forever at risk of being forgotten. 24. What is Historia Antigua in paragraph 1? A. A story collection. B. A collection of family documents. C. Grandfather’s diaries. D. A book on Spanish ancient history. 25. What makes learning family stories difficult? A. The lack of interest in history. B. The complexity of family trees. C. The delay of recording them. D. The absence of written records. 26. What does the author suggest readers do? A. Reorganize family documents. B. Spend more time reading family history. C. Create family stories to entertain our family. D. Engage older generation to preserve traditions. 27. What message about family stories is conveyed in the last paragraph? A. They are best left as mysteries. B. They are vital for shaping personal identity. C. They are difficult to understand. D. They are necessary to honor old generations. C A girl dressed head-to-toe in pink at school will probably pass unnoticed, but a boy doing the same will unavoidably face stares. Even the most non-traditional parent would think twice about exposing their son to that. Children start paying attention to gender differences much earlier than some parents realize, according to psychologist Christia Brown. “Society emphasizes that gender is important really early in a kid’s life,” she says, “We label it a lot in our language — we use gender as nouns all the time. So we frequently say ‘oh, there’s that girl’ or ‘come on boys’”. Research suggests children’s recognition of gender is more due to adults pointing it out than any inborn awareness of it. Gendered toys credit certain types of skills and strengths to one gender or the other. So, when a child only plays with toys marketed for their gender, they learn a certain set of skills but do not engage as much in other types of learning, leading to imbalanced development in boys and girls as they grow older. The biggest concern around buying gendered toys is that they can impact how children see themselves. Gendered representation imposes (强加于) society’s fixed ideas on kids instead of letting them choose their own interests. This can further affect their academic choices and future career paths. Many companies have made real progress over the last few years, dropping gender labels in stores and online — a new research shows a 70% decrease in the use of online gender navigation (导航) options since 2012 — but there’s still work to do to challenge the stereotyped (老一套的) packaging and promotion of toys. Researchers hope that one day, toys will be categorized by type, like puzzle toys, dolls or children’s bikes, instead of gender. The toys come in every color, not just pink or blue. Ultimately, toy choices should be based on kids’ personal interests, and not on their gender. 28. What does Christia Brown say about gender differences? A. They are probably unnoticed. B. They are biologically determined. C. They are socially constructed. D. They are universally acknowledged. 29. What aspects of children are negatively affected by gendered toys? A. Their attitudes and choices. B. Their interpersonal relationship. C. Their academic performance. D. Their physical strength and fitness. 30. What further efforts should toy companies make? A. How the toys are marketed. B. Where the toys are sold. C. When the toys are rolled out. D. Who the toys are targeted at. 31. What do the researchers expect of future toys? A. Being colourful. B. Satisfying kids’ tastes. C. Being gender-neutral. D. Covering wider categories. D Traditional robotic systems lean heavily on satellite-based GPS, whose signals are unstable in extreme geographical conditions. However, future robots will independently conduct search-and-rescue missions or explore dangerous environments with a level of reliability. Yet the most significant barrier to this autonomy is navigation. In response to this challenge, researchers have turned their attention to nature. Nature has spent hundreds of millions of years evolving the art of navigation. The first inspiration comes from insects’ ability to track their own movements relative to a starting point. The second mode is based on birds’ multi-sensory capabilities to integrate information from several sensory channels. The other one draws inspiration from rodents (啮齿类动物), whose brains enable them to build maps of their surroundings. Rather than adopting a single biological strategy, researchers have built a unified framework that combines them together. Each contributes a different form of spacial awareness and solves a different aspect of the navigation puzzle, and together they provide a system capable of supporting long-term autonomy. To determine whether the system could withstand real-world conditions, researchers have conducted extensive field experiments in challenging environments — from abandoned mines to thick forests where GPS signals fail entirely. The results are striking. The robots stay on course significantly longer with accuracy and the system demonstrates up to 60% higher energy efficiency. The most impressive achievement is its resilience to sensor failure. The moment the robots’ primary sensors break down, multiple subsystems will step in, ensuring continuous performance without human intervention. The emerging era of autonomous exploration begins with a simple insight borrowed from nature. This capacity is not the product of a single perfect system but the harmony of multiple ones. In this sense, robots will become more than machines. They will become partners capable of operating independently in the most demanding environments on Earth and beyond, guided by the evolutionary genius of the natural world. 32. How does the author present the issue in paragraph 1? A. By making a contrast. B. By defining a concept. C. By giving an example. D. By explaining a theory. 33. What is a feature of the newly-built navigation framework? A. It employs combined biological strategies. B. It contains a single form of spacial awareness. C. It enhances animals’ multi-sensory capabilities. D. It solves the same aspect of the navigation puzzle. 34. What does the underlined word “resilience” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. The effort to increase efficiency. B. The ability to function normally. C. The intention to explore actively. D. The capacity to analyze situations. 35. What is the text mainly about? A. Autonomous exploration regains popularity. B. The application of navigation is widespread. C. Nature remains humans’ extraordinary engineer. D. Human beings can exist in harmony with nature. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 When research-based learning started at my school, I saw it as a frightening task. 36 My teacher, Mr. Lee, changed my view, “True learning starts with a question from daily life.” I began to notice small things with curiosity. Why did I prefer studying near the window? What made group study sometimes effective and sometimes noisy? After thinking carefully, I settled on a simple question: Does background music help or hold back homework efficiency? My first lesson: Choose a question I truly want to answer. 37 Next, I needed a plan. I decided to experiment on myself for two weeks: one week with soft instrumental music, and one in complete silence. 38 I also designed a short survey for my classmates. Making a clear, simple plan turns anxiety into action. The real challenge came during the execution (执行). My self-observation was easy, but analyzing the results was confusing — the survey responses were mixed, and the results weren’t what I had expected. 39 Then, I recalled: research is about understanding, not just proving a point. So, I looked for patterns instead of one answer. 40 I made two simple charts about my focus and classmates’ music preferences. I saw music helped me with repetitive tasks but not with reading, and that preferences varied widely. This experience taught me research focuses more on methodical exploration than definite answers. You can start your research by picking a small, curious question from daily life and following it step by step. A. Finally, I turned to Mr. Lee. B. I almost thought my project was a failure. C. My personal interest is the best motivation. D. I tracked my focus time and task completion. E. Later, Mr. Lee advised I visualize my confusing data. F. I had to give up the project I was doing at that moment. G. The word “research” itself sounded too serious and distant. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Daniel and Martin both work full-time — Daniel as a landscaper, Martin in the chemical industry. But when they’re not on the clock, they’re out 41 people who are struggling to make ends meet. What started as free lawn (草坪) care once a week has now grown into another 42 : free cleaning service. Whether it’s a driveway or sidewalk, the brothers show up 43 to help — no payment required. “You never know what people are 44 ,” Martin said. “It may just be cleaning service, but it can 45 their day and even change how they see life.” Their 46 kicked off four years ago. While working a 47 lawn care job with their father, they met a client who admitted she couldn’t 48 her medicine. Daniel recalls the moment 49 : “From there, we saw the look on her face.” So they decided to do her lawn for free and restructured their 50 to reserve at least one day a week for helping those in need — tackling overgrown lots and 51 yards at no cost. Soon after, cleaning service became part of their 52 . Now on a video platform, they 53 their work, where their two channels have grown to over 450,000 subscribers each. For Daniel and Martin, it all comes down to one 54 goal: encouraging others to make a difference. “We hope to motivate people to lend a hand and spread 55 throughout the city,” Daniel said. 41.

Overnight trains, sunrise hikes, and five scenic spots before lunch 56 (regard) as badges (勋章) of honor. Today, that mindset is being quietly overturned. Across China, “slow travel” is emerging as a defining trend, particularly among Gen Z. Instead of using every hour 57 the full, travelers are choosing fewer destinations, longer 58 (stay) and experiences that emphasize immersion over mileage. According to a 2025 survey, 55.3% of young respondents said they now prefer “immersive slow travel”. 59 shift is visible in both behavior and business. Once-popular “special-forces-style tourism”, 60 travelers rush through cities to maximize check-ins, has given way to 61 social media jokingly calls “low-consumption travel”. The idea is simple: minimum physical tension, maximum 62 (emotion) return. Online data shows that searches for “gentle adventures” rocketed in 2025, with interest in low-impact rafting up 135%, slower, 63 (control) bungee experiences up 65%, and “elevator-assisted mountain climbing” up more than 80%. These are not just internet jokes. Operators have redesigned attractions to match the new pace. On Foshan’s Xiqiao Mountain, visitors can try a modified bungee jump that 64 (lower) participants gently instead of dropping them at full speed. In river valleys, “lying-flat rafting” lets travelers float downstream under blue skies, 65 (do) little more than drifting and daydreaming. In slowing down, young Chinese travelers are redefining what it means to go somewhere. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是李华，你市博物馆正在举办端午文化数字云展（Online Digital Exhibition）。请你给英国好友David写一封邮件，推荐他观看。内容包括： （1）云展内容； （2）推荐理由。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear David, Yours, Li Hua 第二节（满分25分） 阅读下面短文，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 corner of 71st Street and Prospect was my corner. Nobody else seemed to want it, anyway. Most people looked at it and said there was nothing there, just an empty land. But they weren’t looking hard enough. My corner was like a wide-open treasure box. There was a time when my sisters were chasing each other, and my brothers were yelling, and I felt like the walls of our apartment were about to burst, I ran down to my corner. I forced through the tall grass. Butterflies scared up at my feet. I was careful not to step on the flowers that grew here. If I was really quiet, the birds went on about their business all around me. I sat down, closed my eyes and listened to their songs. The grass smelled clean and fresh. The sun warmed my skin, and I wondered why I was the only one who was thankful for this place. One evening, Mama said, “Tia, the city wants to pave over (铺设) your corner and turn it into a parking lot. It is in the paper today.” I stopped in my tracks. “Not my corner, Mama! It’s ours! They couldn’t do that!” “They could and they would,” said Mama, “unless somebody stands up against it and says no.” “It just needs some cleaning up, that is all. How come they couldn’t see that?” I ran to my room and slammed the door. From my window, I could see my corner. Where would the birds and butterflies go when it was all blacktop and concrete? Mama knocked softly at the door and stepped in. “Tia, you see something in that corner that most people don’t. You get to make them see what you see. Make some noise about it. Your siblings (兄弟姐妹) and I will back you up — no one ever got any place by sitting back.” That night, I was thinking about what Mama had said to me. In my heart, I knew she was right. I had to do something. Without hesitation, I painted a big cardboard with NO PARKING LOT! SAVE OUR NATURE! in large letters. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。 Early the next morning, I dragged the cardboard down to the corner. Late that night, when I was with my siblings, Mum stormed in, “The corner stays ours!” 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
