The book is a reflection of Lin Yutang’s view that true happiness can only be found in the small pleasures of everyday life. In the book, he challenges traditional concepts of success and happiness, arguing that the pursuit of wealth and fame can lead to a life of stress and unhappiness. Instead, he encourages readers to embrace their own unique habits and talents, and to find joy and meaning in their everyday experiences. The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of the art of living. In the section “Sensations”, for example, Lin Yutang describes the pleasure of eating, drinking, and sleeping, and he encourages readers to take time to enjoy these experiences. He writes, “The Chinese are gastronomes (美食家). They love to eat, and they eat with enthusiasm.” In the section “Freedom, Lin Yutang explores the importance of individuality and creativity in living a satisfying life. He writes, “The important thing is not what we do, but how we do it. The important thing is not what we have, but how we use it.” Throughout the book, Lin Yutang’s unique brand of humor is evident. He uses wit to comment on social and political issues, and to challenge traditional values and customs. For example, he writes, “Some Chinese are gossipers (说闲话者). They love to talk about each other, and they talk with enjoyment.” This observation reflects his belief that gossip can be harmless amusement, and that it can even bring people together. Overall, The Importance of Living is an interesting read. Lin Yutang’s unique sense of humor and insight (洞察力) make it a pleasure to read, and his philosophy of life is both inspiring and practical. Lin Yutang’s wit, wisdom, and creativity are fully presented, which continue to attract readers around the world today. 24. What is the art of living according to Lin Yutang? A. Getting a sense of achievement in big successes. B. Finding and enjoying happiness in daily life. C. Exploring different talents from an early age. D. Developing a healthy living habit. 25. What does Lin Yutang want to express through the section “Freedom”? A. The way we think and deal with things matters. B. The preference for food shows, our personality. C. Creativity exists in different forms in life. D. We tend to consider wealth and fame first. 26. Why are gossipers mentioned in Paragraph 3? A. To show Lin’s openness to social issues. B. To stress Lin’s rich knowledge and experience. C. To describe Lin’s deep research on the Chinese. D. To express Lin’s hate for gossip. 27. What is the author’s purpose in writing this text? A. To explain Lin Yutang’s philosophy of life. B. To illustrate Lin Yutang’s writing style. C. To show Lin Yutang’s achievements. D. To introduce Lin Yutang’s book. C Offshore oil leaks have caused some of the worst man-made disasters in history. And while adding a whirl (漩涡) of fire to the mix might sound like the opposite of a good solution, new research has found it might be the best way to clean up our mess. When dealing with major oil leaks, emergency responders often set fire to the floating oil on the ocean’s surface, creating “on-site” fire pools that stop the oil from spreading further. But while this protects the marine environment, such fires send huge clouds of smoke and poisonous smoke into the atmosphere. Taking inspiration from an unusual 2003 incident in Kentucky — where a Bourbon Whisky leak sent 800,000 gallons up in flames, circling into a 30 m fire whirl on a lake — Professor Elaine Oran and her team began to wonder whether the same process could be used for good. So the team constructed a 4.8 m-tall, three-walled triangular structure at a fire training facility in Texas, with a pool of raw oil floating on water at its centre. When lit, it produced a nearly 5.2 m fire whirl. The first large-scale experiment shows fire whirls burn oil leaks faster and cleaner than fire pools, proving their game-changing potential for ocean cleanups. Compared to conventional fire pools, it burned through oil 40% faster, cut smoke production by 40%, and consumed up to 95% of the fuel. The secret is in the whirl. Rather than spreading outward, the vortex (涡流) breathes in oxygen from all sides — burning hotter and more completely. But employing that power is easier said than done. Fire whirls are temperamental; too much wind and the column collapses, too little airflow control and it returns to a conventional fire pool. Despite this, Oran said achieving the “Goldilocks Zone” in the field is “very realistic”. “This study is more than just an experiment. It’s a brief view into a future where fire isn’t a force of destruction, but a tool to protect our oceans and planet,” she said. 28. What is the disadvantage of traditional oil burning? A. It fails to stop oil from spreading. B. It’s difficult to operate on site. C. It destroys marine life seriously. D. It causes serious air pollution. 29. Why did Elaine Oran’s team carry out the experiment? A. To figure out the cause of the Kentucky accident. B. To test whether fire whirls can clean oil leaks better. C. To acquire more experience for fire training in Texas. D. To prove the conventional fire pools are not reliable. 30. What does the underlined word “temperamental” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Difficult to control. B. Costly to produce. C. Extremely powerful. D. Naturally changing. 31. What conclusion can be drawn about the fire whirl technique? A. It’s been actually used in real oil leak accidents. B. It needs testing in some small-scale experiments. C. It will eventually replace other cleanup methods. D. It has promising potential in ocean conservation. D “I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos. Anyone engaged in writing understands this truth: the act of writing transforms half-formed ideas into precise, logical thought. What sounds coherent (有条理的) when spoken often appears weak and illogical when committed to paper. A recent MIT study provides convincing scientific evidence for this claim. Researchers used wearable (可穿戴的) brain scanners to compare students who wrote essays independently with those using AI assistance. The findings were clear: AI-assisted writers “consistently under-performed at brain, verbal, and behavioral levels.” They demonstrated (显示，证明) that we need to write in order to think deeply. This research emerges (出现) at a critical historical moment for literacy (读写能力). Childhood reading has reached record lows, with nearly half of British adults not reading a single book last year. Adult literacy is declining or making no progress across most OECD countries. Notably, average IQs have begun to decline since the 1980s, along with reasoning (推理的) and problem-solving abilities — a trend that is unlikely to be random. Walter Ong’s influential (有影响力) work “Orality and Literacy” illuminates why writing is essential. He argued that literacy enabled Ancient Greece’s intellectual revolution. Oral cultures must “think memorable thoughts”, relying on rhyme, emotion, and cliché (陈词滥调) to preserve knowledge. Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments. In our digital age, no technology has surpassed the complicated architecture of the book. While the internet offers fragmented (碎片化的) information, books provide rich context and sustained (持续的) logical connections. Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text. As our culture becomes increasingly dominated (支配) by short-form videos and attention-fragmenting content, we risk losing the capacity for complex reasoning. Reading and writing form the foundation of serious thought — a habit that unites history’s greatest minds. Before we yield (让步) our cognitive development to screens and algorithms (算法), we must carefully consider what we might be sacrificing. 32. What is the function of writing according to John Dos Passos? A. Revealing flaws in speech. B. Recording spoken words. C. Organizing thoughts. D. Ensuring fluency. 33. What is the key advantage of writing over oral cultures? A. It ensures greater objectivity. B. It makes for logical statements. C. It preserves knowledge longer. D. It requires “memorable thoughts”. 34. Why does the author describe reading as “thinking in dialogue with the text”? A. To stress its interactive feature. B. To contrast with online reading. C. To underline its logical structure. D. To highlight its cultural relevance. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Decline of Adult Literacy. B. Writing and Reading-Keys to Deep Thinking. C. Digital Age and Reading Habits. D. IQ Decline and Reading Ability. 第二节(共5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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 People favor humor, as it lights up daily moments, eases awkwardness and makes every interaction warm and enjoyable. This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life. ____36____ A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect. Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge. ____37____. For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand. ____38____ Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers. ____39____ The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public’s trust and damage their credibility. Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. Overuse harms professionalism. ____40____ A. You need to use humour with great care in such communication. B. Scientists who master this balance can be more welcoming and popular. C. It also boosts audience engagement effectively. D. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant. E. It also shines in the field of science,especially online. F. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though. G. It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people. 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节完形填空(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。 In 2013, Alvin Irby, a teacher, started Barbershop Books: He wanted to ____41____ boys who were bored waiting their turns in the barber shop to read for fun, on their own.

But then, Jim transferred to our school. He always seemed lost in his own world, leaving other students unsure how to approach him. It was obvious that he felt like an outsider, and I paid little attention to him at first—until the day everything changed. It was a typical writing class until our teacher assigned a creative essay. I threw myself into the task, as confident as ever. When it came time to share our works, I listened politely to my classmates’ readings, but my mind was already wandering to the praise I was certain would come my way. Then Jim’s turn arrived. He stood up, his voice soft yet steady, and began to read. His words vividly painted a picture of an old, forgotten library—where time stood still and the pages of ancient books whispered tales of long-lost worlds. When he finished, the classroom fell completely silent. Moments later, thunderous applause echoed through the room. Our teacher’s eyes sparkled with delight. “Jim,” she said warmly, “you have a rare gift. With such talent, you’re bound to win the upcoming writing competition.” Her words hung in the air like a challenge. I had always been the star of our class’s literary circle, but now a new light had emerged—one that threatened to outshine mine. That evening, I poured my heart out to my father. After listening quietly, he sighed softly and said, “Jealousy is a thief that steals our joy. It’s easy to see Jim as a rival, but perhaps he’s just a fellow traveler on the same journey. Instead of pushing him away, why not reach out? You might find that his light doesn’t dim yours—it only makes the world brighter.” At that moment, a sudden realization dawned on me. 注意 ： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1:The next morning, I made up my mind to talk to Jim. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the writing competition drew near, Jim and I became unexpected partners. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Are you free on saturday evening?

IT was mainly used for drinking wine, especially during toast, with people of higher status. So IT was a kind of status symbol exactly. And surprisingly, it's considered even more valuable today than IT was back then. Why is that? Well, only a few gold cups like this still exist in the world. Amazing, jim, could you take a picture of me pretending to drink from IT? Sorry, dear, but photography isn't allowed in this museum. Oh, right. Maybe i'll buy a postcard of that gold cup from the souvenir shop later. That's a good idea. Come on, let's go and see what else they have here. Listen to the next question. Take care of your plants. They may scream if you treat them badly, according to an article published in a magazine. So plants can make sounds when they are stressed. Plants interact with insects and other animals all the time, and many of these insects and animals use sounds for communication. So IT would be very inconvenient for plans not to use sounds at all. I lac had any told BBC science focus. With this in mind, the research team started by recording plants sounds. They divided the plants into three groups. One group wasn't watered for five days, another group had the stems cut off, and the last group remained untouched. The microphones caught sounds at a frequency of forty to eighty kilo hurts from the first two groups. The sounds grew louder and louder during the five days of water stress. They then began to decline as the plants stride out. The researchers haven't yet discovered how the sounds are made. After the experiment, the team gathered the data and made software that could tell how plants feel IT could be useful for farmers and monitoring the conditions of their crops.

The book is a reflection of Lin Yutang’s view that true happiness can only be found in the small pleasures of everyday life. In the book, he challenges traditional concepts of success and happiness, arguing that the pursuit of wealth and fame can lead to a life of stress and unhappiness. Instead, he encourages readers to embrace their own unique habits and talents, and to find joy and meaning in their everyday experiences. The book is divided into several sections, each of which explores a different aspect of the art of living. In the section “Sensations”, for example, Lin Yutang describes the pleasure of eating, drinking, and sleeping, and he encourages readers to take time to enjoy these experiences.

And while adding a whirl (漩涡) of fire to the mix might sound like the opposite of a good solution, new research has found it might be the best way to clean up our mess. When dealing with major oil leaks, emergency responders often set fire to the floating oil on the ocean’s surface, creating “on-site” fire pools that stop the oil from spreading further. But while this protects the marine environment, such fires send huge clouds of smoke and poisonous smoke into the atmosphere. Taking inspiration from an unusual 2003 incident in Kentucky — where a Bourbon Whisky leak sent 800,000 gallons up in flames, circling into a 30 m fire whirl on a lake — Professor Elaine Oran and her team began to wonder whether the same process could be used for good. So the team constructed a 4.8 m-tall, three-walled triangular structure at a fire training facility in Texas, with a pool of raw oil floating on water at its centre. When lit, it produced a nearly 5.2 m fire whirl. The first large-scale experiment shows fire whirls burn oil leaks faster and cleaner than fire pools, proving their game-changing potential for ocean cleanups. Compared to conventional fire pools, it burned through oil 40% faster, cut smoke production by 40%, and consumed up to 95% of the fuel. The secret is in the whirl. Rather than spreading outward, the vortex (涡流) breathes in oxygen from all sides — burning hotter and more completely. But employing that power is easier said than done. Fire whirls are temperamental; too much wind and the column collapses, too little airflow control and it returns to a conventional fire pool. Despite this, Oran said achieving the “Goldilocks Zone” in the field is “very realistic”. “This study is more than just an experiment. It’s a brief view into a future where fire isn’t a force of destruction, but a tool to protect our oceans and planet,” she said. 28. What is the disadvantage of traditional oil burning? A. It fails to stop oil from spreading. B. It’s difficult to operate on site. C. It destroys marine life seriously. D. It causes serious air pollution. 29. Why did Elaine Oran’s team carry out the experiment? A. To figure out the cause of the Kentucky accident. B. To test whether fire whirls can clean oil leaks better. C. To acquire more experience for fire training in Texas. D. To prove the conventional fire pools are not reliable. 30. What does the underlined word “temperamental” in paragraph 5 probably mean? A. Difficult to control. B. Costly to produce. C. Extremely powerful. D. Naturally changing. 31. What conclusion can be drawn about the fire whirl technique? A. It’s been actually used in real oil leak accidents. B. It needs testing in some small-scale experiments. C. It will eventually replace other cleanup methods. D. It has promising potential in ocean conservation. 【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. D 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了海上漏油危害巨大，传统燃烧法污染空气。研究受意外事故启发实验漩涡火，清油更快更洁净，但不易操控，未来有望用于海洋保护。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But while this protects the marine environment, such fires send huge clouds of smoke and poisonous smoke into the atmosphere.(但尽管此举保护了海洋环境，然而这类火灾却会向大气中排放出大量的烟雾以及有毒烟雾)”可知，传统燃油燃烧的缺点是会造成严重的空气污染。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Taking inspiration from an unusual 2003 incident in Kentucky — where a Bourbon Whisky leak sent 800,000 gallons up in flames, circling into a 30 m fire whirl on a lake — Professor Elaine Oran and her team began to wonder whether the same process could be used for good.(受到2003年肯塔基州一起罕见事件的启发——当时一种波本威士忌发生泄漏，导致80万加仑的液体燃烧起来，并在湖面上形成一个30米高的火旋风——伊莱恩·奥兰教授及其团队开始思考，是否可以利用同样的原理来实现有益的目的)”可知，伊莱恩·奥兰的团队进行这项实验是为了测试火旋风是否能更有效地清理油泄漏。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“too much wind and the column collapses, too little airflow control and it returns to a conventional fire pool(风力过大时，火柱就会坍塌；而如果气流控制不当，它又会恢复成传统的火池状结构)”可知，风力过大漩涡崩塌、气流不足变回普通火坑，说明难以控制。故划线词意思是“难以控制的”。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Despite this, Oran said achieving the “Goldilocks Zone” in the field is “very realistic”. “This study is more than just an experiment. It’s a brief view into a future where fire isn’t a force of destruction, but a tool to protect our oceans and planet,” she said.(尽管如此，奥兰表示，在该领域实现“黄金地带”这一目标“是完全有可能的”。她说：“这项研究不仅仅是一项实验。它让我们对未来有了一个简要的展望，即在那个未来中，火不再是一种破坏的力量，而是一种保护我们的海洋和地球的工具。”)”可知，这种火旋技术在海洋保护方面具有巨大的潜力。 D “I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos. Anyone engaged in writing understands this truth: the act of writing transforms half-formed ideas into precise, logical thought. What sounds coherent (有条理的) when spoken often appears weak and illogical when committed to paper. A recent MIT study provides convincing scientific evidence for this claim. Researchers used wearable (可穿戴的) brain scanners to compare students who wrote essays independently with those using AI assistance. The findings were clear: AI-assisted writers “consistently under-performed at brain, verbal, and behavioral levels.” They demonstrated (显示，证明) that we need to write in order to think deeply. This research emerges (出现) at a critical historical moment for literacy (读写能力). Childhood reading has reached record lows, with nearly half of British adults not reading a single book last year. Adult literacy is declining or making no progress across most OECD countries. Notably, average IQs have begun to decline since the 1980s, along with reasoning (推理的) and problem-solving abilities — a trend that is unlikely to be random. Walter Ong’s influential (有影响力) work “Orality and Literacy” illuminates why writing is essential. He argued that literacy enabled Ancient Greece’s intellectual revolution. Oral cultures must “think memorable thoughts”, relying on rhyme, emotion, and cliché (陈词滥调) to preserve knowledge. Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments. In our digital age, no technology has surpassed the complicated architecture of the book. While the internet offers fragmented (碎片化的) information, books provide rich context and sustained (持续的) logical connections. Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text. As our culture becomes increasingly dominated (支配) by short-form videos and attention-fragmenting content, we risk losing the capacity for complex reasoning. Reading and writing form the foundation of serious thought — a habit that unites history’s greatest minds. Before we yield (让步) our cognitive development to screens and algorithms (算法), we must carefully consider what we might be sacrificing. 32. What is the function of writing according to John Dos Passos? A. Revealing flaws in speech. B. Recording spoken words. C. Organizing thoughts. D. Ensuring fluency. 33. What is the key advantage of writing over oral cultures? A. It ensures greater objectivity. B. It makes for logical statements. C. It preserves knowledge longer. D. It requires “memorable thoughts”. 34. Why does the author describe reading as “thinking in dialogue with the text”? A. To stress its interactive feature. B. To contrast with online reading. C. To underline its logical structure. D. To highlight its cultural relevance. 35. What is the best title for the passage? A. The Decline of Adult Literacy. B. Writing and Reading-Keys to Deep Thinking. C. Digital Age and Reading Habits. D. IQ Decline and Reading Ability. 【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. B 【解析】 【导语】主要论述书写助力深度思考，对比人工智能辅助写作弊端，阐释读写对思维发展的重要价值。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的““I write to find out what I’m thinking,” wrote the great American journalist John Dos Passos.(美国著名记者约翰·多斯·帕索斯写道：我写作是为了弄清自己的想法。)”可知，在他看来写作能够梳理整理自身思绪。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Writing, by contrast, allows for precise, complex statements that can be examined, reviewed, and developed into logical arguments.(相比之下，写作能够促成精准严谨的复杂表述，还可推敲完善并形成合乎逻辑的论点。)”可知，相较于口头文化，写作的核心优势是能够形成富有逻辑性的表述。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Reading is an active process that demands engagement and concentration — it is essentially thinking in dialogue with the text.(阅读是需要全身心投入的主动过程，本质上就是在与文本对话思考。)”可知，作者这样形容阅读，是为了着重强调阅读具备互动思考的特点。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中的“They demonstrated (显示，证明) that we need to write in order to think deeply. (这项研究表明我们需要依靠写作来进行深度思考。)”以及第六段中的“Reading and writing form the foundation of serious thought — a habit that unites history’s greatest minds.(阅读与写作构成严谨思考的基础，这也是历代杰出人物共同具备的习惯。)”可知，文章先是点明写作可以梳理思绪、实现深度思考，借助科学实验证明人工写作优于AI辅助写作，又对比口头表达与书面写作的差距，同时阐述纸质阅读区别于网络碎片化信息的优势，最后点明在短视频盛行的当下，坚持读写才能守住复杂思辨能力，由此可知，全文紧紧围绕写作和阅读展开，突出二者是开展深度思考的关键，所以“Writing and Reading-Keys to Deep Thinking(写作与阅读：深耕思维之钥)”最能概括全文核心，适合作为最佳标题。 第二节(共5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填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项 People favor humor, as it lights up daily moments, eases awkwardness and makes every interaction warm and enjoyable. This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life. ____36____ A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect. Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge. ____37____. For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand. ____38____ Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts. Additionally, humor humanizes scientists, as seen in popular science lectures where light-hearted jokes help audiences feel closer to researchers. ____39____ The hidden risks deserve our attention. If the content itself is untrue, humor can even replace facts, leading the audience to form wrong opinions about scientific knowledge just based on the amusing posts they see. Overusing sarcasm or negative humor also has the opposite effect, as it will quickly make scientists lose the public’s trust and damage their credibility. Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. Overuse harms professionalism. ____40____ A. You need to use humour with great care in such communication. B. Scientists who master this balance can be more welcoming and popular. C. It also boosts audience engagement effectively. D. It helps break the impression of scientists being cold and distant. E. It also shines in the field of science,especially online. F. Humor in scientific communication is a double-edged sword, though. G. It’s a helper in making complex concepts understandable to ordinary people. 【答案】36. E 37. G 38. C 39. F 40. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要论述了幽默在科学传播中的积极作用及潜在风险，强调需谨慎使用。 【36题详解】 上文“This magic of humor doesn’t just work in daily life.(幽默的这种魔力不仅仅在日常生活中发挥作用)”说明幽默的作用范围。下文“A little humor can greatly enhance scientists’ communication effect.(一点幽默能大大增强科学家的沟通效果)”引出幽默在科学领域的应用。空处和前文为顺接关系，应指出幽默在科学领域的应用。所以E项“它在科学领域，尤其是网络上，同样大放异彩。”符合语境。 【37题详解】 上文“Firstly, humor simplifies tough scientific knowledge.(首先，幽默简化了艰深的科学知识)”说明幽默的第一个作用。下文“For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand.(例如，用一个有趣的类比来解释自动驾驶汽车中的人工智能，即“机器像笨拙的蹒跚学步的孩子一样学习”，可以让非专业群体更容易理解抽象的概念)”举例说明幽默帮助普通人理解复杂概念。空处和前文为顺接关系，具体解释其如何简化知识。所以G项“它是帮助普通人理解复杂概念的工具。”符合语境，且与下文例子相呼应。 【38题详解】 上文“For example, explaining AI in self-driving cars with a funny analogy about “machines learning like clumsy toddlers” makes abstract ideas easy for non-professional groups to understand.(例如，用一个有趣的类比来解释自动驾驶汽车中的人工智能，即“机器像笨拙的蹒跚学步的孩子一样学习”，可以让非专业群体更容易理解抽象的概念)”说明幽默在简化知识方面的效果。下文“Scientists sharing clever and humorous stories about laboratory experiments on social media often attract more interactions than dry academic posts.(科学家们在社交媒体上分享关于实验室实验的聪明幽默的故事，往往比枯燥的学术帖子吸引更多的互动)”说明幽默能提升观众参与度。空处和前文为顺接关系，进一步说明其另一作用——提高参与度。所以C项“它还有效地提升了受众的参与度。”符合语境，与下文“attract more interactions”相呼应，且also与上文Firstly形成并列结构。 【39题详解】 上文说明幽默的积极作用。下文“The hidden risks deserve our attention.(隐藏的风险值得我们关注)”说明幽默可能带来的问题。空处和前文为转折关系，应引出幽默的另一面。所以F项“不过，科学传播中的幽默是把双刃剑。”符合语境，“double-edged sword”与下文risks相呼应，起到转折过渡作用。 【40题详解】 上文“Proper humor use requires a balance between vivid expression and professional precision. It should neither overshadow the core scientific information nor be so shallow that it loses seriousness. Overuse harms professionalism.(恰当的幽默使用需要在生动的表达和专业精确之间取得平衡。它既不应掩盖核心科学信息，也不应过于肤浅而失去严肃性。过度使用会损害专业精神)”总结了幽默使用需把握分寸。空处和前文为顺接关系，应给出总结性建议。所以B项“掌握了这种平衡的科学家会更受欢迎和喜爱。”符合语境，是对全文的总结性呼吁，与上文“balance”和“Overuse harms”相呼应。 第三部分语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节完形填空(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。 In 2013, Alvin Irby, a teacher, started Barbershop Books: He wanted to ____41____ boys who were bored waiting their turns in the barber shop to read for fun, on their own.

But then, Jim transferred to our school. He always seemed lost in his own world, leaving other students unsure how to approach him. It was obvious that he felt like an outsider, and I paid little attention to him at first—until the day everything changed. It was a typical writing class until our teacher assigned a creative essay. I threw myself into the task, as confident as ever. When it came time to share our works, I listened politely to my classmates’ readings, but my mind was already wandering to the praise I was certain would come my way. Then Jim’s turn arrived. He stood up, his voice soft yet steady, and began to read. His words vividly painted a picture of an old, forgotten library—where time stood still and the pages of ancient books whispered tales of long-lost worlds. When he finished, the classroom fell completely silent. Moments later, thunderous applause echoed through the room. Our teacher’s eyes sparkled with delight. “Jim,” she said warmly, “you have a rare gift. With such talent, you’re bound to win the upcoming writing competition.” Her words hung in the air like a challenge. I had always been the star of our class’s literary circle, but now a new light had emerged—one that threatened to outshine mine. That evening, I poured my heart out to my father. After listening quietly, he sighed softly and said, “Jealousy is a thief that steals our joy. It’s easy to see Jim as a rival, but perhaps he’s just a fellow traveler on the same journey. Instead of pushing him away, why not reach out? You might find that his light doesn’t dim yours—it only makes the world brighter.” At that moment, a sudden realization dawned on me. 注意 ： (1)续写词数应为150左右； (2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Paragraph 1:The next morning, I made up my mind to talk to Jim. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Paragraph 2: As the writing competition drew near, Jim and I became unexpected partners. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】The next morning, I made up my mind to talk to Jim. I walked up to him nervously after class, mustering up all my courage to break the ice. I sincerely praised his wonderful essay and admitted that I had felt jealous of his talent before. To my surprise, Jim smiled gently and said he had admired my writing skills for a long time. He shared that he was shy and struggled to fit in. My prejudice faded away instantly, and we started chatting happily about writing styles and creative ideas. As the writing competition drew near, Jim and I became unexpected partners. We spared no effort to polish our works together, exchanging thoughts and correcting mistakes for each other. He taught me to enrich stories with vivid details, while I helped him organize his words more logically. Though we didn’t know the final result, I gained far more than prizes. I finally understood that true excellence lies in mutual encouragement rather than competition. One’s light will never be dimmed by others’ brilliance. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索。讲述了作者向来是班里的写作佼佼者，转学生吉姆凭借出色文笔惊艳众人，让作者心生嫉妒。父亲的一番话点醒了他，劝解他摒弃攀比之心。随后作者主动亲近吉姆，二人冰释前嫌，结伴交流写作心得，携手备赛。这段经历让作者明白，真正的优秀从不是相互较量，彼此取长补短、互相成就，才能一同变得更加优秀。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可以随后作者主动亲近吉姆，二人冰释前嫌，结伴交流写作心得。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可以写作者和吉姆携手备赛，齐心协力一起打磨作品，互相交流想法以及作者的感悟。 2.续写线索：决定去找吉姆谈谈→二人冰释前嫌→结伴交流写作心得→携手备赛→齐心协力一起打磨作品→感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 承认：admit/acknowledge 欣赏：admire/appreciate 收获：gain/obtain 情绪类 真诚地：sincerely/honestly 惊讶：surprise/astonishment 【点睛】[高分句型1].
