By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree. Despite the impressive achievements, Tillman remembers turning to her mother and saying, “I think I want to pursue a doctorate degree.”
Her mother, Jimalita Tillman, was surprised. Dorothy was a year into launching a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) camp startup, and she was looking for funding for the organization. She was busy. But after Dorothy explained that her mission was to positively impact young people when it came to their mental health, Jimalita understood and lent her support.
Jimalita said she was proud of her daughter. “I knew what it took for her to go through that. She had to sacrifice (牺牲) a lot. She emerged as a leader without fear, showing them how to tackle online schooling.”
From a young age, Dorothy has been outstanding in her academic pursuits. By age 7, she was already doing high school work. At that point, she started to take college level module (模拟) tests and apply the credits toward higher education.
“It was always mentally difficult to handle, especially at such a young age. When you get out of college, you’re thinking, ‘what do I do next?’ Now I am able to sit in the comfortability of being a teenager and being OK with the fact that I don’t have to figure out what comes next,” Dorothy said.
She studied integrated behavioural health at Arizona State University. For her dissertation (论文), she explored the stigma (耻辱) that prevents university students from getting mental health treatment.
In addition to her school work, Dorothy also devotes her time to running the Dorothy Jeanius STEAM Leadership Institute, which inspires hundreds of underserved young people in Chicago, as well as abroad in countries like Ghana and South Africa, to pursue STEAM careers. The programme includes guest speakers and open conversations around each of the five areas of STEAM.
4. What did Dorothy Jean Tillman achieve by the age of 14?
A. She raised fund for her organization. B. She started a STEAM camp startup.
C. She greatly influenced the young. D. She acquired academic success.
5. What was Jimalita Tillman’s attitude towards her daughter’s plan?
A. She was not surprised and took it for granted. B. She was in favour of her daughter’s decision
C. She thought the decision was unnecessary. D. She was worried about her daughter’s workload.
6. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?
A. Running a startup is challenging. B. Young people favour online schooling.
C. The STEAM education is needed for all people. D. What Dorothy does is really encouraging.
7. Which of the following can best describe Dorothy?
A. Ambitious and determined. B. Brave and noble-minded.
C. Confident and sensitive. D. Careful and kind-hearted.
C
Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading.
Later, when children reach school age, a common technique for teaching the alphabet (字母表) is using hands-on handling, such as forming letters out of clay. But as these students get older, the role of touch reduces, which is bad for the students. Today’s reading assignments are heavily digital, and use of computer keyboards for writing shows no sign of decreasing, especially given the appeal of AI tools for editing and composing.
I’m a linguist (语言学家) who investigates the differences between print and digital reading and how writing supports thinking. My colleague Anne Mangen and I asked more than 500 secondary students at an international school in Amsterdam about their experiences when reading print versus digital texts. Separately, I surveyed 100 university students and young adults in the US and Europe on their likes and dislikes about handwriting versus typing.
Together, their responses demonstrate that teenagers and young adults continue to value touch in their encounters with the written word. The research offers important lessons for educators and parents.
In the studies, students wrote enthusiastically about touch when asked for the one thing they liked most about reading in print or writing by hand. On a physical level, the feeling of holding a book or writing instrument in their hands mattered to students. These are some of their observations: “You actually feel like you are reading because the book is in your hands,” and “I like feeling the paper and pen under my hands, being able to physically form words.”
What students say about the importance of touch mirrors what researchers have found: Touch is an effective way to build early reading and writing skills, as well as to support how more developed readers and writers interact with the written word. Psychologists and reading specialists continue to report higher comprehension in children and young adults when reading in print versus digitally, for both academic and leisure reading.
8. Why did the author mention Pat the Bunny in the first paragraph?
A. To call on readers to read the book.
B. To introduce a classic children’s book.
C. To compare the book with digital reading.
D. To show the value of touch in early reading experiences.
9. What is a common technique for teaching the alphabet to school-age children?
A. Reading digital texts. B. Forming letters out of clay.
C. Using computer keyboards. D. Using touch-and-feel books.
10. What’s Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Shortcomings of the studies. B. The future of the studies.
C. The discoveries of the studies. D. Difficulties met in the studies.
11. Where can we read the text?
A. In a book review. B. In a guidebook.
C. In a science magazine. D. In a dictionary.
D
In a world where our digital devices have become extensions of ourselves, it’s no surprise that we often immerse (沉浸) ourselves in screens rather than engage with the world and people around us.
But amidst this digital deluge (涌现的事物), something vital is being lost: the art of genuine human connection. These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions.
Small talk often receives criticism for being empty or insignificant. Rarely does someone express a fondness for it, let alone find fulfillment in it. However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout — it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection. Even one-off exchanges with someone at the grocery store or at the bus stop offer opportunities for connection.
But our aversion (厌恶) to small talk is significant. We may convince ourselves that we’re not good at it or that it’s unnecessary, but that’s simply an excuse. Yes, of course, social anxiety is real, but the only way to overcome the fears is through practice, gaining confidence by slowly taking risks, and actively engaging in conversations.
So, how can we embrace small talk and harness its power? Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level.
Like any skill, small talk requires practice. Start small by initiating conversations with strangers or acquaintances and gradually work your way up to deeper connections. With each interaction, you’ll gain confidence and build the skills necessary for meaningful conversations. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but with practice, we can regain the richness of human interaction and cultivate relationships that truly nourish (滋养) the soul, build confidence, and reclaim the internal real estate that is overrun with anxious thoughts.
12. Why do people often prefer to engage with digital devices rather than the real world?
A. They are afraid of genuine relationships. B. They find it more convenient to do so.
C. They want to avoid face-to-face communication. D. They have little time to engage with others.
13. What does the author think of small talk?
A. It takes a lot of meaningful time. B. It is an unnecessary and hard skill.
C. It is difficult to master for most people. D. It plays a crucial role in social interactions.
14. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Employ. B. Challenge. C. Overlook. D. Discover.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. How to Overcome Social Anxiety B. The Challenges of Modern Social Life
C. The Power of Small Talk in Social Life D. Digital Devices and Human Connection

47. 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。
My family was poor so I was pleasantly surprised when my mother came up with the money to purchase my fourth-grade class picture. Twenty-two students lined up in three rows and faced the camera with smiles. My teacher, Mrs. Cornell, stood to the side. She kept strict rules, but I loved her. I held my one-and-only class picture like a new teddy bear. I wanted to be a person like her.
As the years passed, I’d run across that fourth-grade picture. It always reminded me that I’d wanted to become a teacher. Even after getting married, I would still long for the teaching career I never got to have.
Once my children were all in school, I had some time to myself. The eagerness to teach was still there, but I was now forty-two. I hadn’t been a student for over twenty years. Having only my husband’s income made money an issue as well.
Anyway, I managed to come up with enough money for my first term. With a step of faith, I moved forward. College proved to be a blessing and a challenge. I attended lessons and challenged myself to learn new things. My days and nights were spent on difficult textbooks. I would look at the picture when I was tired. Gradually, I found myself enjoying the classes.
One day, a professor mentioned a grant (补助金) was available to those going into education upon their graduation. Would they even consider giving the money to someone of my age? I had a few good years left in me, but I couldn’t compete with the youngsters who had a lifetime of teaching ahead of them. Feeling I had nothing to lose, I began the lengthy application process followed by an interview. All I could do was wait and hope.
Several weeks later, I received a call from my professor telling me I’d been selected as a candidate for the program. I’d have to invest some volunteer hours as required, but my college expenses would be covered. I hung up the phone with teary eyes. I couldn’t believe my dream of teaching was becoming a reality. I continued studying hard through the next three years.
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。
The graduation day finally came.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For the next eighteen years, I taught fourth grade.

By age 14, Dorothy Jean Tillman had obtained an associate’s, bachelor’s and master’s degree. Despite the impressive achievements, Tillman remembers turning to her mother and saying, “I think I want to pursue a doctorate degree.”
Her mother, Jimalita Tillman, was surprised. Dorothy was a year into launching a science, technology, engineering, arts and mathematics (STEAM) camp startup, and she was looking for funding for the organization. She was busy. But after Dorothy explained that her mission was to positively impact young people when it came to their mental health, Jimalita understood and lent her support.
Jimalita said she was proud of her daughter. “I knew what it took for her to go through that. She had to sacrifice (牺牲) a lot. She emerged as a leader without fear, showing them how to tackle online schooling.”
From a young age, Dorothy has been outstanding in her academic pursuits. By age 7, she was already doing high school work. At that point, she started to take college level module (模拟) tests and apply the credits toward higher education.
“It was always mentally difficult to handle, especially at such a young age. When you get out of college, you’re thinking, ‘what do I do next?’ Now I am able to sit in the comfortability of being a teenager and being OK with the fact that I don’t have to figure out what comes next,” Dorothy said.
She studied integrated behavioural health at Arizona State University. For her dissertation (论文), she explored the stigma (耻辱) that prevents university students from getting mental health treatment.
In addition to her school work, Dorothy also devotes her time to running the Dorothy Jeanius STEAM Leadership Institute, which inspires hundreds of underserved young people in Chicago, as well as abroad in countries like Ghana and South Africa, to pursue STEAM careers. The programme includes guest speakers and open conversations around each of the five areas of STEAM.

C. She greatly influenced the young. D. She acquired academic success.
5. What was Jimalita Tillman’s attitude towards her daughter’s plan?
A. She was not surprised and took it for granted. B. She was in favour of her daughter’s decision
C. She thought the decision was unnecessary. D. She was worried about her daughter’s workload.
6. What can we infer from the last two paragraphs?

Pat the Bunny the 1940 classic touch-and-feel book, is still in print, which shows the value of touch in helping babies and young children get into the world of reading.
Later, when children reach school age, a common technique for teaching the alphabet (字母表) is using hands-on handling, such as forming letters out of clay. But as these students get older, the role of touch reduces, which is bad for the students. Today’s reading assignments are heavily digital, and use of computer keyboards for writing shows no sign of decreasing, especially given the appeal of AI tools for editing and composing.
I’m a linguist (语言学家) who investigates the differences between print and digital reading and how writing supports thinking. My colleague Anne Mangen and I asked more than 500 secondary students at an international school in Amsterdam about their experiences when reading print versus digital texts. Separately, I surveyed 100 university students and young adults in the US and Europe on their likes and dislikes about handwriting versus typing.
Together, their responses demonstrate that teenagers and young adults continue to value touch in their encounters with the written word. The research offers important lessons for educators and parents.
In the studies, students wrote enthusiastically about touch when asked for the one thing they liked most about reading in print or writing by hand. On a physical level, the feeling of holding a book or writing instrument in their hands mattered to students. These are some of their observations: “You actually feel like you are reading because the book is in your hands,” and “I like feeling the paper and pen under my hands, being able to physically form words.”
What students say about the importance of touch mirrors what researchers have found: Touch is an effective way to build early reading and writing skills, as well as to support how more developed readers and writers interact with the written word. Psychologists and reading specialists continue to report higher comprehension in children and young adults when reading in print versus digitally, for both academic and leisure reading.
8. Why did the author mention Pat the Bunny in the first paragraph?
A. To call on readers to read the book.
B. To introduce a classic children’s book.
C. To compare the book with digital reading.
D. To show the value of touch in early reading experiences.
9. What is a common technique for teaching the alphabet to school-age children?
A. Reading digital texts. B. Forming letters out of clay.
C. Using computer keyboards. D. Using touch-and-feel books.
10. What’s Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. Shortcomings of the studies. B. The future of the studies.
C. The discoveries of the studies. D. Difficulties met in the studies.
11. Where can we read the text?
A. In a book review. B. In a guidebook.
C. In a science magazine. D. In a dictionary.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. C 11. C

In a world where our digital devices have become extensions of ourselves, it’s no surprise that we often immerse (沉浸) ourselves in screens rather than engage with the world and people around us.
But amidst this digital deluge (涌现的事物), something vital is being lost: the art of genuine human connection. These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions.
Small talk often receives criticism for being empty or insignificant. Rarely does someone express a fondness for it, let alone find fulfillment in it. However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout — it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection. Even one-off exchanges with someone at the grocery store or at the bus stop offer opportunities for connection.
But our aversion (厌恶) to small talk is significant. We may convince ourselves that we’re not good at it or that it’s unnecessary, but that’s simply an excuse. Yes, of course, social anxiety is real, but the only way to overcome the fears is through practice, gaining confidence by slowly taking risks, and actively engaging in conversations.
So, how can we embrace small talk and harness its power? Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level.
Like any skill, small talk requires practice. Start small by initiating conversations with strangers or acquaintances and gradually work your way up to deeper connections. With each interaction, you’ll gain confidence and build the skills necessary for meaningful conversations. It may feel uncomfortable at first, but with practice, we can regain the richness of human interaction and cultivate relationships that truly nourish (滋养) the soul, build confidence, and reclaim the internal real estate that is overrun with anxious thoughts.
12. Why do people often prefer to engage with digital devices rather than the real world?
A. They are afraid of genuine relationships. B. They find it more convenient to do so.
C. They want to avoid face-to-face communication. D. They have little time to engage with others.
13. What does the author think of small talk?
A. It takes a lot of meaningful time. B. It is an unnecessary and hard skill.
C. It is difficult to master for most people. D. It plays a crucial role in social interactions.
14. What does the underlined word “harness” in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A. Employ. B. Challenge. C. Overlook. D. Discover.
15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. How to Overcome Social Anxiety B. The Challenges of Modern Social Life
C. The Power of Small Talk in Social Life D. Digital Devices and Human Connection
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了闲聊在社交生活中的重要性和作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“These devices offer a convenient escape from boredom or discomfort, allowing us to avoid awkward social situations or difficult emotions.(这些设备提供了一个方便的逃避无聊或不适的方式,让我们避免尴尬的社交场合或困难的情绪)”可知,们更喜欢与数字设备互动,而不是真实的世界,是因为他们觉得这样做更方便。故选B项。

【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Start by paying attention to your surroundings and engaging with those around you. Whether it’s commenting on the weather or striking up a conversation about a shared experience, small talk provides an opportunity to connect with others on a basic level.(首先要注意你周围的环境,并与周围的人交往。无论是评论天气还是聊一聊共同的经历,闲聊都提供了一个与他人建立基本联系的机会)”可知,下文在说如何通过关注周围环境并与周围的人互动来利用闲聊的力量。所以划线词意为“利用”。与A选项“Employ(雇用;利用)”同义。故选A项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文尤其是第三段“However, small talk matters a lot in social interactions. Think of it as the warm-up before a workout-it helps us ease into deeper conversations and establishes a foundation of trust and understanding. It lays the groundwork for assessing whether the exchange has the potential to cultivate a friendship or deeper connection(然而,闲聊在社交互动中非常重要。把它想象成锻炼前的热身——它帮助我们轻松地进入更深层次的对话,建立信任和理解的基础。它为评估交流是否有可能培养友谊或加深联系奠定了基础)”可知,短文讨论了闲聊在社交生活中的力量。所以短文的最佳标题为“闲聊在社交生活中的力量”。故选C项。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 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。
My family was poor so I was pleasantly surprised when my mother came up with the money to purchase my fourth-grade class picture. Twenty-two students lined up in three rows and faced the camera with smiles. My teacher, Mrs. Cornell, stood to the side. She kept strict rules, but I loved her. I held my one-and-only class picture like a new teddy bear. I wanted to be a person like her.
As the years passed, I’d run across that fourth-grade picture. It always reminded me that I’d wanted to become a teacher. Even after getting married, I would still long for the teaching career I never got to have.
Once my children were all in school, I had some time to myself. The eagerness to teach was still there, but I was now forty-two. I hadn’t been a student for over twenty years. Having only my husband’s income made money an issue as well.
Anyway, I managed to come up with enough money for my first term. With a step of faith, I moved forward. College proved to be a blessing and a challenge. I attended lessons and challenged myself to learn new things. My days and nights were spent on difficult textbooks. I would look at the picture when I was tired. Gradually, I found myself enjoying the classes.
One day, a professor mentioned a grant (补助金) was available to those going into education upon their graduation. Would they even consider giving the money to someone of my age? I had a few good years left in me, but I couldn’t compete with the youngsters who had a lifetime of teaching ahead of them. Feeling I had nothing to lose, I began the lengthy application process followed by an interview. All I could do was wait and hope.
Several weeks later, I received a call from my professor telling me I’d been selected as a candidate for the program. I’d have to invest some volunteer hours as required, but my college expenses would be covered. I hung up the phone with teary eyes. I couldn’t believe my dream of teaching was becoming a reality. I continued studying hard through the next three years.
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。
The graduation day finally came.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
For the next eighteen years, I taught fourth grade.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The graduation day finally came. My family sat in the audience as I, a graduate with gray hair, crossed the stage. I felt so pleased and excited. First, I sincerely expressed my thanks to my professors who encouraged me through the entire learning journey. Then I thanked my family. It was their support that helped me complete my formal education. I made up my mind to work hard and serve as a good teacher.
For the next eighteen years, I taught fourth grade. I began each school year by telling the students about myself. I showed them my fourth-grade class picture. I told them the story of how I had wanted to be a teacher and that how long it took me to realize my dream. That old class picture was an encouragement for me to do what I wanted to do. This experience makes me realize that if you are working on something that you really care about, you must stick to it until you succeed.
