Q Wang Haili is the main inheritor()of Hengshui Inner Painting,a national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产).She loved art from a young age and studied at Hebei Normal University.. Her works cover many subjects with a fresh and beautiful style.The people and animals in her works are nicely painted.She keeps the old painting methods and also makes new changes to them. Intangible cultural heritage is passed down by word of mouth,so people play a key role in its inheri- tance,especially for inner painting.Wang Haili has taught for many years and trained over 3,000 inner painting students.She has made a great contribution to turning this folk art into a modem industry.She never stops learning,whether in painting or teaching.With the spirit of craftsman,she makes her skills better and takes the lead in using special new pens and paints for inner painting.Her efforts aleo help more people know about Hengshui Inner Painting. Hengshui Inner Painting is a special Chinese folk art,painted inside snuff bottles(),mainly in Hengshui,Hebei,and nearby areas.It uses Chinese painting skills like outlining and dotting(描线和点线). The artworks have deep meanings,nice designs and beautiful colors,loved by people all over the world. Inner painting has been connected with snuff bottles for a long time.Snuff is a kind of fine dust with some good effects.Artists paint inside small glass snuff boltles with special long pens.Their fine works amaze everyone.Now,Hengshui Inner Painting has stepped onto the world stage and become "China's best art'”and“the national treasure'”. 62.Which of the following describes Wang Haili's works?

D A saying is popular on Chinese social media:"If you have no talent,then repeat until you do."It tells us that success usually comes from persistence()and repetition,not natural talent that some people are bom with.Many successful people shared their own stories of leaming an instrument, mastering a language or improving in sports simply by practising the same thing over and over again.This is called the philosophy()of repetition,which means that focus and persistence are the keys to being excellent at what we do. Repetition really works in our daily lives.It makes our memory stronger,helps our muscles work bet- ter together and improves our skills day by day.A pianist who plays the same music hundreds of times can play it easily and beautifully in the end.Each repetition makes the action smoother and our understanding of the skill deeper. This idea is similar to Canadian writer Malcolm Gladwell's"10,000-hour rule",which says practis- ing a skill carefully for about 10,000 hours can make you an expert in that field.But repetition alone is not enough to achieve success.Experts say true practice must be careful and focused-paying full attention, taking it seriously and receiving useful advice.Blind practice will make bad habits hard to break,and endless repetition without passion will make you feel bored quickly. Also,repetition can't take the place of talent,interest or genes().Some people learn new things faster because of their natural gifts.But we still need the philosophy of repetition:improvement always needs enough effort and patience.With careful thought,useful feedback,clear purposes and true love for it,our common daily effort can lead to amazing success in the end. 66.Which of the following brings success according to the text? A.Talent and effort. B.Love and practice. C.Persistence and repetition. D.Interest and palience. 67.What can repetition help us do in our daily lives? DBreak bad habits easily. 2Make our memory stronger. 3Help our muscles work better together. ④Improve our skills. A.①③④ B.②③④ C.①②④ D.①②③ 68.How does the writer start Paragraph 3? A.By giving an example. B.By showing a fact. C.By leading into a rule. D.By telling a story. 69.What does the underlined word"feedback"in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A.Advice. B.Practice. C.Energy. D.Progress. 70.Which of the following is the best title for the text? A.The Secret of the 10,000-hour Rule B.The Power of Repetition C.The Way to Be an Expert D.The Importance of Action 第二节阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 Protecting wild animals and their homes is an important task.Today,technology like drones( )-small flying robots with cameras-is becoming a widely used tool in this work. In large natural areas,it is usually hard for people to find and watch wild animals closely.Drones can help solve this problem.They can fly high above big forests and wide fields,and show clear real-time pictures to people on the ground through their small cameras.Besides,they work very quietly and don't disturb()animals.For example,scientists often use drones to follow groups of wild horses without getting too close and scaring them away.It helps researchers learn more about the living habits of animals and protect them from danger. Drones are also useful for finding animals in trouble.If an animal is injured in the wild,time is very important for its life.In the past,people searched for it on foot day and night,which often took many days.Now,a drone with a special camera can fly over a large area in just a few hours.This quick search helps find the animal faster and save its life in time. Drones won't take the place of wildlife workers or hard-working scientists.Instead,drones are their helpful and good pariners.They do the tiring and boring work of searching from the air,so people can work more easily and effectively on the ground,and better protect wildlife.In short,drones are more than just simple flying cameras.They help us watch over,understand and care for the beautiful natural world better,and protect our planet's valuable wildlife effectively. 71.What problem can drones help solve in large natural areas? 72.Why can drones follow wild horses without scaring them away? 73.How long does it take a drone to fly over a large area? 74.What can drones do for wildlife workers and scientists? 75.In which other fields do you think drones can play a role?(Please give an example. 第四部分 情景交际（满分10分） 补全对话（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据下面的对话情景，在空白处填上一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完鳖。 (James and Emma are talking about the 2026 Spring Festival Gala.

Elliot started picking up rubbish four years ago as a personal goal. At first, he just wanted to keep his home and the nearby streets clean. But as time went by, this small effort meant much more to him.Elliot is autistic(自闭的), and this work brings him peace and a strong sense of purpose. It also helps him feel connected to the world around him. As the streets became cleaner, neighbors felt proud of their town. A woman named Zoe Farley wanted to show her thanks. She started a GoFundMe page to raise money for Elliot. To everyone's surprise, over£4,000 was raised in the end, with warm-hearted people from all over the country sharing his story and offering kind help. Elliot was shocked and deeply moved by this great support, and he truly understood that his common actions had really made a big difference to others. Now Elliot is ready to go to college this September. He is full of hope for his future and dreams of working in waste management, turning his litter picking hobby into a career(事业).

C Wang Haili is the main inheritor(继承人) of Hengshui Inner Painting, a national intangible cultural heritage(非物质文化遗产). She loved art from a young age and studied at Hebei Normal University.Her works cover many subjects with a fresh and beautiful style. The people and animals in her works are nicely painted. She keeps the old painting methods and also makes new changes to them. Intangible cultural heritage is passed down by word of mouth, so people play a key role in its inheri-tance, especially for inner painting. Wang Haili has taught for many years and trained over 3,000 inner painting students. She has made a great contribution to turning this folk art into a modern industry. She never stops learning, whether in painting or teaching. With the spirit of craftsman, she makes her skills better and takes the lead in using special new pens and paints for inner painting. Her efforts also help more people know about Hengshui Inner Painting.

Inner painting has been connected with snuff bottles for a long time. Snuff is a kind of fine dust with some good effects. Artists paint inside small glass snuff bottles with special long pens.

D A saying is popular on Chinese social media:“If you have no talent, then repeat until you do.” It tells us that success usually comes from persistence(坚持不懈) and repetition, not natural talent that some people are born with. Many successful people shared their own stories of learning an instrument,mastering a language or improving in sports simply by practising the same thing over and over again. This is called the philosophy(哲学) of repetition, which means that focus and persistence are the keys to being excellent at what we do. Repetition really works in our daily lives. It makes our memory stronger, helps our muscles work bet-ter together and improves our skills day by day. A pianist who plays the same music hundreds of times can play it easily and beautifully in the end. Each repetition makes the action smoother and our understanding of the skill deeper. This idea is similar to Canadian writer Malcolm Gladwell's“10,000-hour rule”, which says practis-ing a skill carefully for about 10,000 hours can make you an expert in that field. But repetition alone is not enough to achieve success. Experts say true practice must be careful and focused—— paying full attention,taking it seriously and receiving useful advice. Blind practice will make bad habits hard to break, and endless repetition without passion will make you feel bored quickly. Also, repetition can't take the place of talent, interest or genes(基因). Some people learn new things faster because of their natural gifts. But we still need the philosophy of repetition: improvement always needs enough effort and patience. With careful thought, useful feedback, clear purposes and true love for it, our common daily effort can lead to amazing success in the end. 66. Which of the following brings success according to the text? A. Talent and effort. B. Love and practice. C. Persistence and repetition. D. Interest and patience. 67. What can repetition help us do in our daily lives? ①Break bad habits easily. ②Make our memory stronger. ③Help our muscles work better together. ④Improve our skills. A. ①③④ B. ②③④ C. ①②④ D. ①②③ 68. How does the writer start Paragraph 3? A. By giving an example. B. By showing a fact. C. By leading into a rule. D. By telling a story. 69. What does the underlined word“feedback” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Advice. B. Practice. C. Energy. D. Progress. 70. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. The Secret of the 10,000-hour Rule B. The Power of Repetition C. The Way to Be an Expert D. The Importance of Action 第二节 阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。 Protecting wild animals and their homes is an important task. Today, technology like drones(无人机)—— small flying robots with cameras—— is becoming a widely used tool in this work. In large natural areas, it is usually hard for people to find and watch wild animals closely. Drones can help solve this problem. They can fly high above big forests and wide fields, and show clear real-time pictures to people on the ground through their small cameras. Besides, they work very quietly and don't disturb(打扰) animals. For example, scientists often use drones to follow groups of wild horses without getting too close and scaring them away. It helps researchers learn more about the living habits of animals and protect them from danger. Drones are also useful for finding animals in trouble. If an animal is injured in the wild, time is very important for its life. In the past, people searched for it on foot day and night, which often took many days. Now, a drone with a special camera can fly over a large area in just a few hours. This quick search helps find the animal faster and save its life in time. Drones won't take the place of wildlife workers or hard-working scientists. Instead, drones are their helpful and good partners. They do the tiring and boring work of searching from the air, so people can work more easily and effectively on the ground, and better protect wildlife. In short, drones are more than just simple flying cameras. They help us watch over, understand and care for the beautiful natural world better, and protect our planet's valuable wildlife effectively. 71. What problem can drones help solve in large natural areas? 72. Why can drones follow wild horses without scaring them away? 73. How long does it take a drone to fly over a large area? 74. What can drones do for wildlife workers and scientists? 75. In which other fields do you think drones can play a role?(Please give an example.) 第四部分 情景交际(满分10分) 补全对话(共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分) 根据下面的对话情景，在空白处填上一个适当的句子，使对话的意思连贯、完整。 (James and Emma are talking about the 2026 Spring Festival Gala.)
