C 【解析】 【原文】W: Hi my name’s Britt Foxton, and I’m the founder of a website devoted to women’s basketball, and I’ve also just written a book on the same subject. But first up, let me tell you how I got started with the site. Although it really got going once I was at university, it actually started out as a high-school project — you know a “design a website” kind of thing — but it wasn’t like anyone expected it to become real or anything. I designed a site about girls’ basketball, which I was passionate about, and called it femalebasket.com. I knew the name wasn’t right, and before it got really successful I changed it to matchgirl.com and that was a really good move. And although it started with basketball, the site’s grown to include other games as well. It features a variety of articles and reviews on everything ranging from basketball to computer games, plus some more traditionally “girly” material as well. But the coverage of team sports is at the heart of it, anything about make-up or fashion is just secondary to that. 第二部分 阅读理解（共两节,满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Astronomy is a subject that integrates various fields, from physics and mathematics to chemistry and biology.

Her new house lay half buried under sand dunes. Strong winds howled, and terrible heat made life extremely difficult. While many people would have fled, Yuzhen chose to stay. “I would rather die planting trees than live buried by the desert,” she said, beginning a lifelong battle against the harsh environment. Yuzhen and her husband worked tirelessly to afford young trees. She slept only a few hours each night, her hands and arms covered in wounds from her hard work. After many trials, she finally found a successful method. She first planted shrubs and grasses to hold the soil. Then, she planted taller trees like poplars and pines to protect the fruit trees inside. Slowly, her efforts paid off. The barren land transformed into a green oasis. Over four decades, she has turned over 70,000 acres of desert into woodland, becoming a symbol of China’s large-scale tree-planting project. Yuzhen’s story also inspired an American teacher, Donald Jones. In 2015, he traveled to meet her and joined her team. He learned to plant trees, working hard under difficult conditions. He planted over 2,000 trees and formed a deep bond with Yuzhen, calling her his “sister”. Their friendship showed that environmental protection is a shared mission that connects people across borders. Yuzhen’s personal effort is part of a much larger picture. China is making significant progress in protecting the environment. In the past 20 years, a quarter of the world’s newly added green areas have come from China. The country has met its 2030 goals for forest growth and solar and wind power capacity years ahead of schedule. These achievements show China’s leading role and consistent commitment to a sustainable future. The message from Yuzhen’s story is profound: whether it is planting trees or developing clean energy, every effort shares the same vision. Green development is not just China’s choice, but its contribution to the entire planet. Challenges like sandstorms know no borders. By working together, humanity can create not only oases in the desert but also a greener, cleaner world for all. 24. What made Yin Yuzhen decide to stay in the desert instead of fleeing? A. Her husband’s strong encouragement. B. Her determination to fight desertification. C. The hope of making a living by planting. D. The attraction of having a home in sands. 25. Which of the following best describes Yin Yuzhen’s tree-planting method? A. Relying on green oases for irrigation water. B. Planting tall trees first to block strong winds. C. Focusing on fruit trees to improve economic benefits. D. Using a layered approach to stabilize and green the land. 26. Why is Donald Jones mentioned in the passage? A. To show the global influence of Yin Yuzhen’s story. B. To indicate cross-border relationships are easy to form. C. To introduce an effective tree-planting technique from the US. D. To explain the difficulty of international environmental cooperation. 27. What is the best title of the text? A. When Green Mission Crosses borders B. A Woman’s 40-Year War on the Desert C. China’s Green Efforts: Growing Hope for the Globe D. The Seed of Change: Personal Pursuit of Green Life 【答案】24. B 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了殷玉珍将沙漠变为绿洲的励志故事，她的努力不仅改变了自己和当地的环境，还激励了一位美国人加入她，体现了环保无国界的精神。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““I would rather die planting trees than live buried by the desert,” she said, beginning a lifelong battle against the harsh environment.(“我宁愿死在植树的劳作中，也不愿被埋在沙漠之下。”她说道，从此开始了与恶劣环境的长期斗争)”可知，殷玉珍选择留在沙漠而非逃离，是源于她治理沙漠化的坚定决心。故选B。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“After many trials, she finally found a successful method. She first planted shrubs and grasses to hold the soil. Then, she planted taller trees like poplars and pines to protect the fruit trees inside.(经过多次尝试，她终于找到了一种行之有效的办法。她首先种植了一些灌木和草类植物来固定土壤。然后，她种植了像白杨和松树这样的高大树木，以保护里面的果树)”可知，她的种树方法是采用分层的方式稳固并绿化土地。故选D。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Yuzhen’s story also inspired an American teacher, Donald Jones. In 2015, he traveled to meet her and joined her team. He learned to plant trees, working hard under difficult conditions. He planted over 2,000 trees and formed a deep bond with Yuzhen, calling her his “sister”. Their friendship showed that environmental protection is a shared mission that connects people across borders.(玉珍的故事也激励了一位美国教师唐纳德·琼斯。2015年，他前往与她会面，并加入了她的团队。他学会了植树，在艰苦的条件下努力工作。他种下了超过2000棵树，并与玉珍建立了深厚的友谊，称她为自己的“妹妹”。他们的友谊表明，环境保护是一项跨越国界的共同使命)”可知，提及唐纳德·琼斯是为了展示尹玉珍的故事所具有的全球影响力。故选A。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The message from Yuzhen’s story is profound: whether it is planting trees or developing clean energy, every effort shares the same vision. Green development is not just China’s choice, but its contribution to the entire planet. Challenges like sandstorms know no borders. By working together, humanity can create not only oases in the desert but also a greener, cleaner world for all.(玉珍的故事所传达的信息意义深远：无论是植树造林还是开发清洁能源，每一份努力都秉持着相同的愿景。绿色发展并非仅仅是中国的选择，更是其对整个地球的贡献。诸如沙尘暴这样的挑战没有国界之分。通过携手合作，人类不仅能在这片沙漠中创造出绿洲，还能为所有人创造一个更绿色、更清洁的世界)”结合全文内容可知，本文讲述了殷玉珍将沙漠变为绿洲的励志故事，她的努力不仅改变了自己和当地的环境，还激励了一位美国人加入她，体现了环保无国界的精神。C选项“中国绿色行动：为全球带来希望的曙光”最符合文章标题。故选C。 C We often think of confidence as a purely internal mental state, but groundbreaking neuroscience reveals that our body posture directly and rapidly shapes our brain function, stress levels, and willingness to take risks. This bidirectional link between body and mind, known as embodied cognition, shows that adopting “high-power” postures — open, expansive, and occupying space — can chemically and neurologically equip us for challenge. A 2025 study published in Nature Communications used a combination of fMRI brain scanning, hormone sampling, and behavioral economic games to trace this real-time effect. Researchers found that when participants held expansive postures for just two minutes, their brain activity shifted dramatically. There was increased connectivity between the prefrontal cortex (involved in planning and regulation) and the brain’s reward circuits, while activity in the amygdala (杏仁核), a key fear center, was reduced. “The brain doesn’t just command the body; the body’s posture sends immediate signals back that restructure the brain’s priorities from avoidance to approach,” explains the lead author. Currently, hormonal changes were measured: brief periods of “power posing” led to a mild increase in testosterone (linked to confidence) and a significant decrease in cortisol (linked to stress). This state is associated with resilience under pressure. In the following decision-making tasks, these participants were 28% more likely to choose a high-risk, high-reward option compared to those who had held contracted, low-power postures. This research has profound, immediate significance for high-risk moments in a student’s life — from walking into an important exam to preparing for a presentation. However, the lead researcher cautions that posture is a tool, not a magic trick. “The effect is real and physiological (生理的), but it works best as a short-term preparatory strategy to access a more resourceful state. It doesn’t replace competence or preparation, but it can ensure your biological state doesn’t weaken them.” The ultimate insight is one of control: we are not passive victims of our nervousness; we can use our own physiology as a gateway to access confidence, changing performance anxiety by starting with the body to influence the mind. 28. What can we learn from paragraph 1? A. High-power postures improve problem-solving skills. B. Confidence is mainly determined by internal psychology. C. Embodied cognition helps regulate brain-body interaction. D. Body posture directly influences people’s cognition and emotion. 29. What method was used in the 2025 study? A. Collecting self-reported psychological data. B. Measuring long-term hormone level changes. C. Combining neural scanning with behavioral tests. D. Tracking brain activity through daily posture monitoring. 30. The lead researcher may agree that power posing __________. A. can make up for lack of professional ability B. is a reliable way to build lasting confidence C. has slight real physiological effects on people D. serves as a temporary aid to actual competence 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Different body postures’ effects on physical health. B. The link between body posture and mental functioning. C. Scientific findings on mental stress reduction methods. D. Body language’s role in managing performance anxiety. 【答案】28. D 29. C 30. D 31. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了具身认知理论下，“高能量姿势”能直接影响大脑功能、激素水平和决策行为的相关研究，以及该研究对学生应对高压场景的意义和研究人员的相关提醒。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“We often think of confidence as a purely internal mental state, but groundbreaking neuroscience reveals that our body posture directly and rapidly shapes our brain function, stress levels, and willingness to take risks.(我们通常认为自信是一种纯粹的内在心理状态，但突破性的神经科学研究表明，身体姿态会直接且迅速地影响大脑功能、压力水平以及人们承担风险的意愿。)”可知，身体姿势能直接影响人的认知与情绪。故选D。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“A 2025 study published in Nature Communications used a combination of fMRI brain scanning, hormone sampling, and behavioral economic games to trace this real-time effect.(2025年发表在《自然·通讯》上的一项研究，结合了功能性磁共振成像大脑扫描、激素采样和行为经济学游戏，来追踪这种实时效应。)”可知，该研究采用了神经扫描与行为测试相结合的方法。故选C。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“However, the lead researcher cautions that posture is a tool, not a magic trick. “The effect is real and physiological (生理的), but it works best as a short-term preparatory strategy to access a more resourceful state. It doesn’t replace competence or preparation, but it can ensure your biological state doesn’t weaken them.”(然而，首席研究员警告说，姿势是一种工具，而不是魔法。“这种效应是真实且生理上的，但它作为短期准备策略来进入更有资源的状态时效果最佳。它不能取代能力或准备，但它可以确保你的生理状态不会削弱它们。”)”可知，首席研究员认为高能量姿势是实际能力的临时辅助手段。故选D。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文开篇主题句“We often think of confidence as a purely internal mental state, but groundbreaking neuroscience reveals that our body posture directly and rapidly shapes our brain function, stress levels, and willingness to take risks.(我们通常认为自信是一种纯粹的内在心理状态，但突破性的神经科学研究表明，身体姿态会直接且迅速地影响大脑功能、压力水平以及人们承担风险的意愿。)”以及结尾的总结“The ultimate insight is one of control: we are not passive victims of our nervousness; we can use our own physiology as a gateway to access confidence, changing performance anxiety by starting with the body to influence the mind.(这项研究的终极启示，是关于自我掌控的认知：我们并非自身紧张情绪的被动受害者；我们可以将自身的生理机能作为获取自信的突破口，通过从调节身体状态入手来影响心理，从而缓解表现焦虑。)”可知，全文的核心是阐述身体姿势(生理)与大脑功能、心理状态(如压力、信心、冒险意愿)之间的双向联系与相互影响。故选B。 D Chinook salmon (三文鱼) and their habitats in Seattle’s Thornton Creek suffered severely due to urban expansion, causing flash floods and biodiversity loss. Despite restoration efforts, the once-abundant salmon all but disappeared. During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” — the hyporheic zone, a layer of wet sediment (沉积物), small stones and tiny creatures beneath the streambed that facilitates water mixing and oxygen delivery to salmon eggs — damaged by urbanization, noting that most Seattle restoration efforts had overlooked this vital zone. Teamed with engineer Mike Hrachovec, Lynch redesigned Thornton Creek. They strategically placed logs at precise angles to create small waterfalls and still pockets, generating pressure to force water into the hyporheic zone. These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures”, also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for immature fish — all meant to emulate features of a natural stream. Subsequent data analysis confirmed the stream functioned as Lynch’s team — and nature — intended. But was the stream also supporting life? Given that the stone and sand positioned were sterile (贫瘠的) territory, Lynch thought that a biological jumpstart might be necessary and that the return of life to restored creeks relied on organisms migrating from healthy upstream habitats. So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low. Scientists are investigating reasons for the poor survival of introduced species, including potential factors like donor stream differences and premature inoculation before vegetation establishment. The restoration successfully prevented flooding and stabilized water flow. Most notably, Chinook salmon returned to lay eggs in former zones. Lynch noted, “This success shows small urban creek restorations can revitalize functioning ecosystems.” 32. Why did Katherine Lynch propose rebuilding the hyporheic zone of Thornton Creek? A. It can ease sediment-related issues in the creek. B. It provides more oxygen than creek life needed. C. Its damage was severe due to insufficient attention. D. It serves salmon survival yet was ignored in restoration. 33. What does the underlined word “emulate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Imitate. B. Record. C. Analyze. D. Replace. 34. What can be inferred about inoculating the zone with microbes? A. It introduced essential vegetation. B. It restored the original biodiversity. C. It increased the quantity of microbes. D. It sourced microbes from upstream habitats. 35. What can be concluded from the project? A. Bio-intervention works well in ecosystem restoration. B. Restoring the hyporheic zone aids ecological recovery. C. Microbe inoculation is the focus of the whole project. D. Migrating organisms contribute most to the restoration. 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过修复溪流潜流层帮助三文鱼回归、恢复城市生态的科学实践。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” — the hyporheic zone, a layer of wet sediment (沉积物), small stones and tiny creatures beneath the streambed that facilitates water mixing and oxygen delivery to salmon eggs — damaged by urbanization, noting that most Seattle restoration efforts had overlooked this vital zone.(在一次会议上，生物学家凯瑟琳・林奇提出重建这条溪流缺失的 “肝脏”——潜流层。它是河床下一层由湿沉积物、小石子和微小生物构成的区域，能促进水体混合并为三文鱼卵输送氧气。这一区域因城市化遭到破坏，而西雅图大多数修复工作都忽视了这个关键地带)”可知，凯瑟琳·林奇提议重建桑顿溪的潜流带是因为潜流带对三文鱼的生存至关重要，但在之前的恢复工作中被忽视了。故选D。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures”, also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for immature fish — all meant to emulate features of a natural stream.(这些精确放置的原木和岩石，被称为“潜流带结构”，也形成了缓慢的水流区域，为未成熟的鱼类提供了安全的庇护所——所有这些都是为了emulate自然溪流的特征)”可知，原木和岩石的放置是为了模仿自然溪流的特征，因此emulate在此处的意思是“模仿”。故选A。 【34题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中“So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low.(因此，她的团队尝试了另一项开创性的举措：用微生物接种人工潜流带，这些微生物迅速在该区域繁殖。但是，尽管个体数量很高，生物多样性却相对较低)”可知，用微生物接种该区域增加了微生物的数量。故选C。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“The restoration successfully prevented flooding and stabilized water flow. Most notably, Chinook salmon returned to lay eggs in former zones. Lynch noted,“This success shows small urban creek restorations can revitalize functioning ecosystems.”(恢复工作成功地防止了洪水，稳定了水流。最值得注意的是，奇努克三文鱼回到了以前的区域产卵。林奇指出：“这一成功表明，小型城市溪流的恢复可以重振功能生态系统。”)”可知，恢复潜流带有助于生态恢复。故选B。 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。 We’ve all encountered a “know-it-all” — someone who eagerly lectures on any topic, regardless of expertise, often frustrating those who actually know better. ____36____ One explanation is “naive realism,” the idea that people naturally believe their view of the world reflects objective truth. In reality, all perceptions are shaped by personal biases (偏见), memories, and emotions, creating a unique perspective for each individual. Yet many fail to recognize this, assuming that anyone who sees things differently is simply wrong. ____37____ Another potential cognitive bias at work is the “illusion (错觉) of information adequacy”. ____38____. For instance, someone who sees a classmate avoiding sports might assume they’re just lazy, without considering other reasons, such as an injury. This illusion leads some to believe they know more than they actually do. ____39____ Expressing opinions can be a way of establishing superiority and a sense of dominance in social settings. There’s also the Dunning-Kruger effect, which is cognitive bias. ____40____ Their lack of insight prevents them from recognizing when others have more knowledge than they do. As a result, they may confidently argue their points, even against experts. Ultimately, a know-it-all’s behavior may come from a combination of biases and social needs. Ironically, to become a know-it-all, one must truly know too little. A. This tendency to voice opinions can create tension. B. For some, this belief becomes an urge to “correct” others. C.

F 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了为何一些人会成为“万事通”，探讨了背后的心理学原因及认知偏差。 【36题详解】 上文“We’ve all encountered a “know-it-all” — someone who eagerly lectures on any topic, regardless of expertise, often frustrating those who actually know better.(我们都遇到过“万事通”——这类人无论是否专业，都热衷于就任何话题滔滔不绝地发表意见，这常常让那些真正更懂行的人感到恼火)”描述了“万事通”这类人的特点。下文则开始解释为什么会出现这种现象，空处应是一个过渡句，引出下文对这种现象的解释。选项G“但是为什么有些人会认为自己比任何人都更了解每一门学科呢？”以提问形式引出对行为动机的探讨，符合语境，起到了承上启下的作用，故选G。 【37题详解】 上文“Yet many fail to recognize this, assuming that anyone who sees things differently is simply wrong.(然而，许多人未能意识到这一点，他们认为任何与自己观点不同的人都是错的)”说明许多人认为任何与自己观点不同的人都是错的。选项B“对一些人来说，这种信念变成了一种“纠正”他人的冲动”中的“this belief”指代前文“认为自己正确”的心态，且与上文中的“assuming that anyone who sees things differently is simply wrong”相呼应，进一步解释了这种信念会导致人们产生什么样的行为，即想要“纠正”他人，故选B。 【38题详解】 上文“Another potential cognitive bias at work is the “illusion of information adequacy”(另一种潜在的认知偏差是“信息充足错觉”)”说明另一种潜在的认知偏差是“信息充足错觉”。下文“For instance, someone who sees a classmate avoiding sports might assume they’re just lazy, without considering other reasons, such as an injury.(例如，有人看到同学不参加体育活动，可能会认为他们只是懒惰，而不会考虑其他原因，比如受伤)”举例说明了这种错觉的具体表现，，空处应是对“信息充足错觉”的进一步解释。选项E“人们常常对自己的判断感到自信，即使没有足够的证据”直接解释了“信息不足却自信判断”的核心特征，与“错觉”的定义及例子高度契合，符合语境，故选E。 【39题详解】 下文“Expressing opinions can be a way of establishing superiority and a sense of dominance in social settings.(在社交场合中，发表意见可以是一种建立优越感和控制感的方式)”说明表达观点可能是为了确立优越感和控制感，空处应是一个总起句，引出下文关于人们发表意见的动机的讨论。选项D“有些人也可能是出于对地位或控制的需要”中的“status or control”与下文“superiority and a sense of dominance”形成同义替换，揭示了社交需求（地位、控制欲）的驱动作用，引出新的原因维度，符合语境，故选D。 【40题详解】 上文“There’s also the Dunning-Kruger effect, which is cognitive bias.(此外，还有“达克效应”，这是一种认知偏差)”说明一种认知偏差“达克效应”。下文“Their lack of insight prevents them from recognizing when others have more knowledge than they do.(他们缺乏洞察力，这使他们无法意识到别人何时比自己拥有更多的知识)”解释了“达克效应”的具体表现，空处应是对“达克效应”的进一步描述。选项F“在某一领域知识有限的人往往会高估自己的知识”描述了“达克效应”的一个典型特征，符合语境，故选F。 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，满分50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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A store employee went above the call of duty while on the clock, which has warmed hearts of the community of Brookhaven.

Its surface was worn smooth with age, and the metal lock showed signs of rust (铁锈). Drawn to it as a child, I would run my fingers over it, wondering what secrets it might hold. My grandmother always told me it was special, but she never opened it. For years, it remained a mystery, its contents — perhaps faded photographs, delicate jewelry — left to my imagination. Though curiosity burned, I never tried to open it, assuming that it was meant to be unlocked at the right time. As I grew older, life pulled me away. Schoolwork, friendships, and the uncertainty of the future consumed me. By my final year of high school, the box lay buried beneath old blankets and boxes, forgotten. That year was a storm of emotions. My parents often spoke about my future, their voices filled with both hope and expectation. My mother especially wanted me to stay close to home. She spoke of family, of security, of the importance of being near the people who loved me. But I dreamed of something different. I longed for new places, new experiences, a world beyond the familiar streets I had known all my life. The tension built slowly, each conversation turning into a debate, each disagreement growing sharper. She didn’t understand why I wanted to leave, and I couldn’t understand why she wouldn’t support me. The arguments grew more frequent, words spoken in frustration hanging in the air long after they were said. One evening, after another quarrel, I fled to the attic. My hands trembling, I wiped away tears, my gaze landing on the box. Without thinking, I opened it. Inside, letters were neatly piled up. Dozens of them lay before me, some yellowed with time, others more recent, all written in my grandmother’s familiar handwriting. My breath caught in my throat as I picked up the one on top. 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 letter described the day my mother left for university. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After reading the letter, I began to understand my mother. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 The letter described the day my mother left for university. My grandmother wrote about how my mother packed her bags with excitement and a hint of fear, ready to explore the world beyond our small town. She talked about the tears in my mother’s eyes as she said goodbye, tears of both joy and sadness. My grandmother’s words painted a vivid picture of a young woman full of dreams, just like me. She also expressed her mixed feelings of pride and loss, just as my mother was now feeling about me. After reading the letter, I began to understand my mother. I realized that she wasn’t trying to hold me back; she was simply worried about me, just as her own mother had been worried about her. I saw the parallel between our situations and felt a wave of guilt for not understanding her earlier. I decided to have a heart-to-heart talk with her. When I showed her the letter and shared my thoughts, she cried and hugged me tightly. From then on, we began to communicate better, respecting each other’s dreams while also considering family bonds. The old box, which once held so many mysteries, became the key to mending our relationship. 【解析】 【导语】文章以作者童年家中阁楼上的一个旧木箱为线索展开叙述，讲述了童年时作者就对这个神秘的旧木箱充满好奇，祖母虽称其特殊却从不打开，作者也一直未动它。随着作者长大，到了高中最后一年，因未来规划与母亲产生了诸多矛盾，母亲希望作者留在家附近，而作者渴望去新地方、体验新事物，二人争吵不断。在一次争吵后，作者逃到阁楼，在情绪激动下打开了一直未动的旧木箱，发现里面整齐地堆着许多信件，都是祖母的笔迹。 【详解】1.段落续写 ①由第一段首句内容“这封信描述了我母亲去上大学的那一天。”可知，第一段可描写祖母信中的具体内容。 ②由第二段首句内容“读完这封信后，我开始理解我的母亲了。”可知，作者的感悟以及与母亲进行深入交流后，关系修复了。 2.续写线索：信的具体内容——感悟——与母亲深入交流——关系修复 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①充满：be full of/be filled with ②表达：express/convey ③意识到：realize/be aware of ④决定做某事：decide to do/determine to do 情绪类 ①悲伤：sadness/sorrow ②快乐：joy/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1]My grandmother wrote about how my mother packed her bags with excitement and a hint of fear, ready to explore the world beyond our small town.（运用了how引导宾语从句） [高分句型2]The old box, which once held so many mysteries, became the key to mending our relationship.（运用了which引导非限制性定语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是英语模拟试题听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面五段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。Do you think the staff manager could see me tomorrow before nine thirty?

Strong winds howled, and terrible heat made life extremely difficult. While many people would have fled, Yuzhen chose to stay. “I would rather die planting trees than live buried by the desert,” she said, beginning a lifelong battle against the harsh environment. Yuzhen and her husband worked tirelessly to afford young trees. She slept only a few hours each night, her hands and arms covered in wounds from her hard work. After many trials, she finally found a successful method. She first planted shrubs and grasses to hold the soil. Then, she planted taller trees like poplars and pines to protect the fruit trees inside. Slowly, her efforts paid off. The barren land transformed into a green oasis. Over four decades, she has turned over 70,000 acres of desert into woodland, becoming a symbol of China’s large-scale tree-planting project. Yuzhen’s story also inspired an American teacher, Donald Jones. In 2015, he traveled to meet her and joined her team. He learned to plant trees, working hard under difficult conditions. He planted over 2,000 trees and formed a deep bond with Yuzhen, calling her his “sister”. Their friendship showed that environmental protection is a shared mission that connects people across borders. Yuzhen’s personal effort is part of a much larger picture. China is making significant progress in protecting the environment. In the past 20 years, a quarter of the world’s newly added green areas have come from China. The country has met its 2030 goals for forest growth and solar and wind power capacity years ahead of schedule. These achievements show China’s leading role and consistent commitment to a sustainable future. The message from Yuzhen’s story is profound: whether it is planting trees or developing clean energy, every effort shares the same vision. Green development is not just China’s choice, but its contribution to the entire planet. Challenges like sandstorms know no borders. By working together, humanity can create not only oases in the desert but also a greener, cleaner world for all. 24. What made Yin Yuzhen decide to stay in the desert instead of fleeing? A. Her husband’s strong encouragement. B. Her determination to fight desertification. C. The hope of making a living by planting. D. The attraction of having a home in sands. 25. Which of the following best describes Yin Yuzhen’s tree-planting method? A. Relying on green oases for irrigation water. B. Planting tall trees first to block strong winds. C. Focusing on fruit trees to improve economic benefits. D. Using a layered approach to stabilize and green the land. 26. Why is Donald Jones mentioned in the passage? A. To show the global influence of Yin Yuzhen’s story. B. To indicate cross-border relationships are easy to form. C. To introduce an effective tree-planting technique from the US. D. To explain the difficulty of international environmental cooperation. 27. What is the best title of the text? A. When Green Mission Crosses borders B. A Woman’s 40-Year War on the Desert C. China’s Green Efforts: Growing Hope for the Globe D. The Seed of Change: Personal Pursuit of Green Life C We often think of confidence as a purely internal mental state, but groundbreaking neuroscience reveals that our body posture directly and rapidly shapes our brain function, stress levels, and willingness to take risks. This bidirectional link between body and mind, known as embodied cognition, shows that adopting “high-power” postures — open, expansive, and occupying space — can chemically and neurologically equip us for challenge. A 2025 study published in Nature Communications used a combination of fMRI brain scanning, hormone sampling, and behavioral economic games to trace this real-time effect. Researchers found that when participants held expansive postures for just two minutes, their brain activity shifted dramatically. There was increased connectivity between the prefrontal cortex (involved in planning and regulation) and the brain’s reward circuits, while activity in the amygdala (杏仁核), a key fear center, was reduced. “The brain doesn’t just command the body; the body’s posture sends immediate signals back that restructure the brain’s priorities from avoidance to approach,” explains the lead author. Currently, hormonal changes were measured: brief periods of “power posing” led to a mild increase in testosterone (linked to confidence) and a significant decrease in cortisol (linked to stress). This state is associated with resilience under pressure. In the following decision-making tasks, these participants were 28% more likely to choose a high-risk, high-reward option compared to those who had held contracted, low-power postures. This research has profound, immediate significance for high-risk moments in a student’s life — from walking into an important exam to preparing for a presentation. However, the lead researcher cautions that posture is a tool, not a magic trick. “The effect is real and physiological (生理的), but it works best as a short-term preparatory strategy to access a more resourceful state. It doesn’t replace competence or preparation, but it can ensure your biological state doesn’t weaken them.” The ultimate insight is one of control: we are not passive victims of our nervousness; we can use our own physiology as a gateway to access confidence, changing performance anxiety by starting with the body to influence the mind. 28. What can we learn from paragraph 1? A. High-power postures improve problem-solving skills. B. Confidence is mainly determined by internal psychology. C. Embodied cognition helps regulate brain-body interaction. D. Body posture directly influences people’s cognition and emotion. 29. What method was used in the 2025 study? A. Collecting self-reported psychological data. B. Measuring long-term hormone level changes. C. Combining neural scanning with behavioral tests. D. Tracking brain activity through daily posture monitoring. 30. The lead researcher may agree that power posing __________. A. can make up for lack of professional ability B. is a reliable way to build lasting confidence C. has slight real physiological effects on people D. serves as a temporary aid to actual competence 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Different body postures’ effects on physical health. B. The link between body posture and mental functioning. C. Scientific findings on mental stress reduction methods. D. Body language’s role in managing performance anxiety. D Chinook salmon (三文鱼) and their habitats in Seattle’s Thornton Creek suffered severely due to urban expansion, causing flash floods and biodiversity loss. Despite restoration efforts, the once-abundant salmon all but disappeared. During a conference, biologist Katherine Lynch proposed rebuilding the creek’s missing “liver” — the hyporheic zone, a layer of wet sediment (沉积物), small stones and tiny creatures beneath the streambed that facilitates water mixing and oxygen delivery to salmon eggs — damaged by urbanization, noting that most Seattle restoration efforts had overlooked this vital zone. Teamed with engineer Mike Hrachovec, Lynch redesigned Thornton Creek. They strategically placed logs at precise angles to create small waterfalls and still pockets, generating pressure to force water into the hyporheic zone. These accurately placed logs and rocks, known as “hyporheic structures”, also create pockets of slow water that provide safe shelters for immature fish — all meant to emulate features of a natural stream. Subsequent data analysis confirmed the stream functioned as Lynch’s team — and nature — intended. But was the stream also supporting life? Given that the stone and sand positioned were sterile (贫瘠的) territory, Lynch thought that a biological jumpstart might be necessary and that the return of life to restored creeks relied on organisms migrating from healthy upstream habitats. So her team tried another ground-breaking move: inoculating (接种) the engineered hyporheic zone with microbes (微生物), which quickly populated the areas. But even though the number of individuals was high, the biodiversity was relatively low. Scientists are investigating reasons for the poor survival of introduced species, including potential factors like donor stream differences and premature inoculation before vegetation establishment. The restoration successfully prevented flooding and stabilized water flow. Most notably, Chinook salmon returned to lay eggs in former zones. Lynch noted, “This success shows small urban creek restorations can revitalize functioning ecosystems.” 32. Why did Katherine Lynch propose rebuilding the hyporheic zone of Thornton Creek? A. It can ease sediment-related issues in the creek. B. It provides more oxygen than creek life needed. C. Its damage was severe due to insufficient attention. D. It serves salmon survival yet was ignored in restoration. 33. What does the underlined word “emulate” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Imitate. B. Record. C. Analyze. D. Replace. 34. What can be inferred about inoculating the zone with microbes? A. It introduced essential vegetation. B. It restored the original biodiversity. C. It increased the quantity of microbes. D. It sourced microbes from upstream habitats. 35. What can be concluded from the project? A. Bio-intervention works well in ecosystem restoration. B. Restoring the hyporheic zone aids ecological recovery. C. Microbe inoculation is the focus of the whole project. D. Migrating organisms contribute most to the restoration. 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。 We’ve all encountered a “know-it-all” — someone who eagerly lectures on any topic, regardless of expertise, often frustrating those who actually know better. ____36____ One explanation is “naive realism,” the idea that people naturally believe their view of the world reflects objective truth. In reality, all perceptions are shaped by personal biases (偏见), memories, and emotions, creating a unique perspective for each individual. Yet many fail to recognize this, assuming that anyone who sees things differently is simply wrong. ____37____ Another potential cognitive bias at work is the “illusion (错觉) of information adequacy”. ____38____. For instance, someone who sees a classmate avoiding sports might assume they’re just lazy, without considering other reasons, such as an injury. This illusion leads some to believe they know more than they actually do. ____39____ Expressing opinions can be a way of establishing superiority and a sense of dominance in social settings. There’s also the Dunning-Kruger effect, which is cognitive bias. ____40____ Their lack of insight prevents them from recognizing when others have more knowledge than they do. As a result, they may confidently argue their points, even against experts. Ultimately, a know-it-all’s behavior may come from a combination of biases and social needs. Ironically, to become a know-it-all, one must truly know too little. A. This tendency to voice opinions can create tension. B. For some, this belief becomes an urge to “correct” others. C. These individuals often feel a responsibility to educate others. D. Some people might also be driven by a need for status or control. E. People often feel confident in their judgments, even without enough evidence. F. People with limited knowledge in an area tend to overestimate their knowledge. G. But why do some people assume they know more about every subject than anyone? 第三部分 语言运用（共四节，满分50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，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A store employee went above the call of duty while on the clock, which has warmed hearts of the community of Brookhaven.

Its surface was worn smooth with age, and the metal lock showed signs of rust (铁锈). Drawn to it as a child, I would run my fingers over it, wondering what secrets it might hold. My grandmother always told me it was special, but she never opened it. For years, it remained a mystery, its contents — perhaps faded photographs, delicate jewelry — left to my imagination. Though curiosity burned, I never tried to open it, assuming that it was meant to be unlocked at the right time. As I grew older, life pulled me away. Schoolwork, friendships, and the uncertainty of the future consumed me. By my final year of high school, the box lay buried beneath old blankets and boxes, forgotten. That year was a storm of emotions. My parents often spoke about my future, their voices filled with both hope and expectation. My mother especially wanted me to stay close to home. She spoke of family, of security, of the importance of being near the people who loved me. But I dreamed of something different. I longed for new places, new experiences, a world beyond the familiar streets I had known all my life. The tension built slowly, each conversation turning into a debate, each disagreement growing sharper. She didn’t understand why I wanted to leave, and I couldn’t understand why she wouldn’t support me. The arguments grew more frequent, words spoken in frustration hanging in the air long after they were said. One evening, after another quarrel, I fled to the attic. My hands trembling, I wiped away tears, my gaze landing on the box. Without thinking, I opened it. Inside, letters were neatly piled up. Dozens of them lay before me, some yellowed with time, others more recent, all written in my grandmother’s familiar handwriting. My breath caught in my throat as I picked up the one on top. 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 letter described the day my mother left for university. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After reading the letter, I began to understand my mother. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
