Here are four incredible destinations that offer unique experiences for every type of traveler. First, the Great Wall of China is one of the most iconic structures in human history. Stretching over 13,000 miles, it was originally built to protect ancient China from invasions.Today, visitors can walk along its ancient paths, climb watchtowers, and enjoy stunning views of the surrounding mountains. A visit here is truly a journey back in time. Second, the Great Barrier Reef in Australia is a paradise for nature lovers. As the world's largest coral reef system, it is home to thousands of marine(海洋的) species, including colorful fish, sea turtles, and delicate corals. Snorkeling or diving in its crystal-clear waters allows you to explore this underwater wonderland up close. Next, Paris, France, known as the“City of Light,” attracts millions of tourists each year.Famous for the Eiffel Tower, the Louvre Museum, and charming sidewalk cafes, Paris offers a perfect mix of history, art, and romance. A relaxing walk along the Seine River at sunset is an unforgettable experience. Finally, Mount Kilimanjaro in Tanzania is a dream destination for adventure seekers. As Africa's highest peak, it challenges climbers from around the globe. The journey to the top takes you through different climate zones, from warm rainforests to freezing snowy summits, offering a truly unique climbing experience. Whether you prefer history, nature, city life, or adventure, these destinations have something for everyone. 21. Which destination would be most suitable for someone interested in marine life? A. The Great Barrier Reef. B. Mount Kilimanjaro. C. The Great Wall of China. D. Paris, France. 22. What is the main purpose of the description of Paris in the passage? A. To highlight its importance as a modern business center. B. To emphasize its combination of history, art, and romantic scenery. C. To encourage tourists to climb the Eiffel Tower. D. To compare it with other European cities. 23. Which of the following can be inferred about climbing Mount Kilimanjaro? A. It is a relatively easy climb suitable for all tourists. B. It is less challenging than climbing other mountains. C. It offers various natural landscapes during the climbing. D. It is only recommended for experienced climbers. B When I first moved to Guangzhou from a small northern town at the age of sixteen, the biggest challenge wasn't the humid weather or the unfamiliar food—— it was the language. Having studied Mandarin my whole life, I was confident I could communicate. However, Isoon found myself in a world of unintelligible sounds. My new classmates would chat and laugh in Cantonese, leaving me on the sidelines, desperately trying to catch a single familiar word. I felt a deep sense of isolation. During breaks, I would sit quietly, pretending to read a book while secretly envying their easy conversations. One afternoon, my deskmate, a girl named Lin, noticed my discomfort. She smiled warmly and handed me a note. It simply said,“Don't worry. I was lost too, once.” That small gesture broke the ice. Lin began to teach me simple Cantonese phrases. We used a mix of Mandarin, broken Cantonese, and lots of hand gestures to communicate. It was like putting together a complex puzzle. Sometimes, my pronunciation was so off that we would both burst out laughing. In those moments, laughter became a language everyone could understand. Gradually, I began to pick up more words. But more importantly, I learned that communication is so much more than just grammar and vocabulary. It's about the effort you make and the bridge you try to build. By the end of the term, I could follow simple conversations, but the most valuable thing I gained was not a new language, but a friend who showed me that a true connection can be built even when words fail. 24. What does the underlined word“unintelligible” in paragraph 1 most probably mean? A. Beautiful and pleasant to hear. B. Impossible to understand. C. Easy to recognize and learn. D. Similar to one's native language. 25. What can be inferred about the author's feelings at first? A. She was frustrated and felt left out. B. She was confident in making new friends. C. She felt excited to learn a new dialect (方言). D. She enjoyed the challenge of a new environment. 26. Why did the author and Lin often burst out laughing? A. Because they found a funny movie to watch. B. Because Lin told a very funny joke in Cantonese. C. Because they finally finished a complex puzzle together. D. Because their attempts to communicate were amusingly imperfect. 27. What is the main lesson the author learned from this experience? A. Mandarin is more useful than Cantonese in Guangzhou. B. It is necessary to be fluent in the local language to fit in. C. Reading books during breaks is a good way to avoid loneliness. D. True communication depends on sincere efforts and interpersonal relationships. C In an era where technology is rapidly advancing, artificial intelligence (AI) is emerging as an unexpected but powerful tool in the fight to protect our planet's biodiversity. Biodiversity, the variety of all life on Earth, from tiny insects to giant whales, is declining at an alarming rate due to human activities. To address this crisis, scientists are now using AI to monitor and protect species in innovative and effective ways. One of the biggest challenges in conservation is data collection. For decades, biologists had to manually track animals or set up camera traps, then spend countless hours looking through thousands of photos. This process was slow and inefficient. Now, AI-powered tools can automatically analyze images and sounds from the wild. For example, AI algorithms(算法) can instantly identify specific animals in camera trap photos, such as a snow leopard in the mountains of Asia, and even recognize individual birds by their unique songs. This allows researchers to gather population data much faster and more accurately. Furthermore, AI helps in the fight against illegal activities like poaching (偷猎) and deforestation. Conservationists are using predictive AI models that analyze historical data on poaching incidents to forecast where poachers might strike next, allowing patrols(巡逻) to be deployed more effectively. Similarly, AI analyzes satellite imagery to detect illegal logging in rain forests in real-time, sending alerts to local authorities. While AI is not a perfect solution and still requires human guidance and verification, it is a game-changer. By handling the enormous task of data analysis, AI frees up human experts to focus on what they do best: making decisions and taking action to save our planet's precious wildlife. 28. What is the main purpose of this article? A. To argue that AI is the only solution to biodiversity loss. B. To explain how AI is being used as a tool to protect biodiversity. C. To describe the different species that are monitored by AI. D. To compare traditional conservation methods with modern ones. 29. What was a major problem with traditional conservation methods? A. They were too expensive for most countries. B. They focused only on large animals. C. The process of collecting and analyzing data was slow and inefficient. D. They could not prevent poaching. 30. Why does the author mention“predictive AI models” in paragraph 3? A. To argue that AI is better at prediction than humans. B. To explain the technical details of how AI works. C. To give an example of how deforestation is detected. D. To show how AI can forecast future events to help prevent wildlife crime. 31. What is the author's attitude towards the use of AI in conservation? A. Skeptical. B. Negative. C. Optimistic. D. Neutral. D In an era defined by instant messaging and endless social media feeds, it is easy to assume that we are more connected than ever. Smartphones keep us constantly updated on friends’activities, and platforms like WeChat or Instagram allow instant communication across the globe. However, beneath the surface of this hyper-connected world lies a troubling social phenomenon: an epidemic of loneliness, particularly among the younger generation. Studies have shown a sharp increase in feelings of isolation among adolescents, despite—— or perhaps because of—— their constant engagement with digital platforms. Why does this paradox (悖论) occur? Unlike face-to-face interactions, online communication often lacks emotional depth. A simple“like” on a photo is a poor substitute (替代品) for a shared laugh, eye contact, or a comforting hug. These non-verbal cues are intended to build trust and close relationships. Furthermore, social media creates a culture of comparison. Users are constantly exposed to the carefully planned and idealized lives of others—— perfect selfies, exciting travel photos, and happy gatherings. This can lead to feelings of dissatisfaction, envy,and the fear of missing out, making individuals feel more disconnected and alone. When they spend more time on screens, they may sacrifice valuable real-world social practices, gradually weakening their ability to initiate conversations, interpret emotions, and establish deep and meaningful connections with those around them. The problem, therefore, is not technology itself, but how we use it. This modern loneliness pushes us to reflect on whether our digital habits are feeding our relationships or starving them. Are we using social media to connect, or just to distract ourselves? Addressing this issue requires a conscious effort to prioritize quality time with friends and family over online validation(验证). We must learn to put down our phones, engage in real conversations, and use technology as a tool to enhance our social lives, rather than allowing it to become a poor substitute for them. Only by striking this balance can we hope to cure the loneliness of the digital age. 32. What does the author think result in the rise in loneliness among young people? A. Their shallow online social interactions. B. Their insufficient access to the Internet. C. Their preference for video games over studying. D. Their positive comparison of lives with others on social media. 33. How does the author develop the argument in the second paragraph? A. By first presenting a problem and then listing solutions from experts. B. By telling a personal story about feeling lonely and then generalizing it. C. By comparing the advantages of online communication with its disadvantages. D. By raising a question and then explaining its causes with specific examples. 34. Where is this passage most likely taken from? A. A personal diary. B. A science fiction novel. C. A magazine featuring on social trends. D. A product advertisement for a new smartphone. 35. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Young people should completely give up social media. B. How to use technology to enhance real-world relationships. C. Social media has made people more connected but also lonelier. D. The paradox of loneliness in the digital age and the reasons behind it. 第二节(共5个小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Mastering Your Emotions As high school students, we often find ourselves on an emotional roller coaster, facing academic pressure, social challenges, and self-doubt. Learning to manage our emotions is not about suppressing(压抑) them but about understanding and responding to them wisely. The first step is emotional awareness. Many of us tend to suppress feelings or react impulsively(冲动地). Instead, try to pause and ask yourself: What am I feeling right now? Is tanger, disappointment, or simply exhaustion?36. As psychologist Dan Siegel says,Name it to tame(驯服) it.” Next, build healthy outlets. Physical activities like running, swimming, or even a brisk walk can release built-up tension. Creative expression—— writing in a journal, drawing, or laying music—— also helps process emotions in a constructive way.37. Equally important is connection. 38. Talking to a trusted friend, a family member, or a school counselor can provide comfort and new perspectives. Sharing your feelings reduces the sense of isolation and reminds you that everyone struggles sometimes. Finally, remember that emotions are temporary. 39. Give yourself permission to feel, but also trust that the extreme feeling will pass. 40. By practicing these skills now, you are building a foundation for mental strength and emotional intelligence—— qualities that will benefit you far beyond high school. A. Naming the emotion gives you back control. B. You do not have to face difficult emotions alone. C. Building these skills takes practice, but each small step matters. D. Instead, you should focus only on your academic achievements. E. It is important to always stay happy and avoid negative feelings. F. These activities not only distract you but also allow you to understand yourself better. G. A bad grade, a quarrel with a friend, or a stressful day does not define who you are. 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，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Last summer, I had the opportunity to attend an international summer camp.

Later, in a culture-sharing session, I learned that in many Arab countries, standing close 44 trust and warmth, while in my culture, more personal space is preferred. This was not about right or wrong; it 45 different cultural norms. I realized my step back might have been 46 as a sign of coldness or rejection. With this new 47 , I decided to bridge the gap.

It is not about changing who we are, but about 52 the beautiful diversity of human interaction. Understanding begins when we choose to 53 beyond our own perspectives. After all, in our 54 world, the ability to navigate(驾驭) cultural differences is not just a skill, but a 55 for sincere connection. 41. A. friendly B. confidently C. purposefully D. uncomfortably 42. A. please B. embarrass C.comfort D. welcome 43. A. reflect on B. give up C. worry about D. object to 44. A. changes B. doubts C. challenges D. signals 45.

A. angrily B. secretly C. frankly D. anxiously 49. A. find B. avoid C. cross D. lose 50. A. excitement B.comfort C. confusion D. joy 51. A. open B. closed C. narrow D. blank 52. A. judging B. fearing C. appreciating D. changing 53. A. look B. step C. turn D. speak 54. A. simple B. quiet C. disconnected D. interconnected 55.

He had mapped out Ethan's future: a key university, a stable career, and a life of predictable success. Ethan never objected, until the letter arrived. It was an acceptance letter from a famous art school, along with a scholarship offer. ForEthan, who had secretly spent years sketching (素描) in hidden notebooks, it was a dream come true. That evening, with trembling hands, he placed the letter on the dinner table. His father picked it up, his expression unreadable. A heavy silence filled the room.“Art?”his father finally said, the single word indicating disapproval.“You want to throw away a guaranteed future for… this?” “It's not just a hobby, Dad,” Ethan said, his voice surprisingly steady despite the storm inside him.“This is what I want to do.” The father's jaw tightened.“In my house, you follow my rules. You will decline the offer and apply to a real university. End of discussion.” He pushed the letter back across the table, the paper crumpling (起皱) slightly under his finger. Ethan stared at the crumpled letter. The depression that had been suppressed for many years finally surfaced. He saw the future his father had planned, a grey and predictable path,and also the future of his dreams, full of vitality (活力) but uncertain. For the first time, he felt that the price of obedience was too high. Without a word, he stood up. His father's eyes followed him, expecting the usual submission(顺从). But Ethan didn't go to his room. Instead, he walked over to the drawer where he kept his art portfolio(艺术作品集). He took out a thick folder, slammed it on the table and opened it, revealing months of hard work. “You’ ve never asked what I want,” Ethan said, his voice low but determined.“Maybe it's time you saw.” His father's gaze fell upon the drawings. The room was silent except for the ticking of the clock. (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。 As his father slowly turned the pages, the serious expression on his face began to change. Finally, his father let out a long, deep breath and looked up at Ethan. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
