All it took to bring them together was a couple of texts to the wrong number.(Wanda Dench和Jamal Hinton是一对不太可能成为朋友的朋友。让他们走到一起的只是几条发错的短信)”以及全文内容可知，文章核心讲述的是两位本无交集的人成为珍贵挚友的故事。由此可知，C项“不太可能的朋友”最符合文章主旨，适合作本文标题。故选C项。 I lost my phone when I was on holiday four months ago. With no phone to use on my way back to Milan, I decided to buy a book at the airport before boarding the plane. There was a discount on Stephen Hawking’s Brief Answers to the Big Questions, and while not necessarily an easy read for the non-reader I was at the time, it touched on some of the subjects I’m most passionate about so I decided it was worth the £5.99. I paid for it. To my great surprise, I read the whole book on that two-hour return flight — and so my love for reading began. I was confused. Before then, I used to buy books fairly often, hoping I’d read them, knowing months would go by and I wouldn’t even open them. So I wondered. What was different this time? After carefully analyzing the situation, I came up with an explanation. Now I realize, most books on my reading list as a child came from one of three places: suggested books, school books, and “to read before you die” books. As a kid, I didn’t have much experience when it came to books or reading. So when I decided to pick up a book, I thought these were the ones I should read and I believed I would surely enjoy them. Then I ended up thinking of myself as someone that simply didn’t like reading. It is obvious, in hindsight (在事后看来), that I actually really enjoyed reading. The few times I got to skim through a book that felt right, I would devour the whole thing in a matter of hours. Many people approach reading in the wrong way, so they finally end up disliking it the way I did. Keep on reading books you don’t like, and you’ll eventually convince yourself it is reading you don’t like. So just make sure, you are reading books that touch on subjects you are actually passionate about — don’t be scared to create your unique bookshelf. 46. What surprised the author? A. He lost his phone. B. The book was very cheap. C. The book was easy to read. D. He finished reading the book. 47. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 2? A. Explore ways to create a reading list. B. Introduce his particular taste in books. C. Explain why he used to be a non-reader. D. Analyze how children’s books are classified. 48. What books does the author advise people to read? A. Those that attract their interest. B. Those that enrich their knowledge. C. Those that are popular among readers. D. Those that are written by best-selling authors. 49. What’s the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. eat greedily B. read eagerly C. run quickly D. spend unwillingly 50. What is the best title for the text? A. Learning from a great book B. How I fell in love with reading C. Creating a successful study tour D. How I developed a reading habit 【答案】46. D 47. C 48. A 49. B 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。文章讲述了作者因手机丢失买了本书，意外爱上阅读，发现选书应基于兴趣而非他人推荐，从而改变了对阅读的看法。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“To my great surprise, I read the whole book on that two-hour return flight(让我大为惊讶的是，我在那两小时的返程航班上读完了整本书。)”可知，让作者惊讶的是他竟然读完了整本书。故选D。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“After carefully analyzing the situation, I came up with an explanation.(经过仔细分析情况后，我得出了一个解释。)”和第二段“Now I realize, most books on my reading list as a child came from one of three places: suggested books, school books, and “to read before you die” books. As a kid, I didn’t have much experience when it came to books or reading. So when I decided to pick up a book, I thought these were the ones I should read and I believed I would surely enjoy them. Then I ended up thinking of myself as someone that simply didn’t like reading.(现在我意识到，小时候读的书大多来自三个渠道：推荐书目、学校用书和“一生必读”系列。那时我对书籍和阅读没什么经验，所以每次选书时，总觉得这些就是该读的书，深信自己一定会喜欢，结果却让我认定自己天生不爱阅读。)”可知，在该段中，作者主要解释了他过去不读书的原因，是小时候所读的书并不是自己真正喜欢的，所以不愿读，最终以为自己不爱读书。故选C。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“So just make sure, you are reading books that touch on subjects you are actually passionate about — don’t be scared to create your unique bookshelf.(所以一定要确保你读的书涉及你真正热爱的主题——不要害怕打造属于自己的独特书架。)”可知，作者建议人们阅读那些关于自己真正热爱的主题的书籍，那些能引起自己兴趣的书。故选A。 【49题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“It is obvious, in hindsight (在事后看来), that I actually really enjoyed reading. (事后回想起来，我显然真的很喜欢阅读。)”和“The few times I got to skim through a book that felt right, I would devour the whole thing in a matter of hours.(少数几次翻到一本感觉对味的书，我便会在几小时内devour整本书。)”可知，作者意识到了自己是真的喜欢阅读，所以一旦翻到了自己感觉很对的书，就会如饥似渴地在几小时内读完整本书，故devour表示“如饥似渴地阅读”。故选B。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“To my great surprise, I read the whole book on that two-hour return flight—and so my love for reading began. (让我大为惊讶的是，我在那次两小时的返程航班上读完了整本书——就这样，我对阅读的热爱开始了。)”和全文内容可知，文章主要讲述了作者是如何从一个过去不读书的人，变得热爱读书的一段过程。故选B。 Have you ever had the flu (流感)? If yes, you may remember coughing, tiredness, and body aches. Other animals get the flu too — it’s caused by a virus (病毒). Many flu virus types infect different animals, and sometimes a virus can “jump” between species, called spillover. This happens because viruses change their genetic code (RNA) via mutations (突变): they get mutations when copying themselves, or by exchanging RNA with other flu viruses in the same infected animal. Tracking virus spread matters to stop outbreaks. Scientists compare viral RNA to make a “family tree” — closely related viruses sit near each other and share a source, while distant ones come from different places. In early 2024, U. S. dairy farmers noticed strange symptoms in cows: flu- like discomfort, thick yellow milk, and some even stopped producing milk. This worried experts, as bird flu had already spilled over to wild mammals like cats, foxes, and seals — so they set out to check if it had reached cows and how it spread. They studied 9 farms, collecting over 300 cow samples (样本) and testing dead wild animals found there. Lab work confirmed (确认) bird flu. They measured virus levels by extracting RNA, checked how long cows made infectious virus (testing samples 3, 16, 31days later), and analyzed (分析) data to trace spread. Results showed sick cows’ milk had the highest virus levels. Virus RNA lasted 31days, but it wasn’t infectious after day 3. The cow virus had unique mutations, different from known bird flu strains. Healthy-looking cows also carried the virus, spreading it to other farms. Some farm animals and cats were infected too — likely from drinking milk from sick cows. This is the first time bird flu was seen spreading between mammals, like from cow to cow. If it mutates further to target mammals, it could reach humans. Human expansion— building farms, towns, and cities into wild areas — makes it easier for diseases like bird flu to jump between species. But there’s good news: pasteurizing (消毒) milk kills the virus, and teamwork between farmers, vets, and researchers can slow or stop spread. 51. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. make a comparison B. reach a conclusion C. present an argument D. introduce a topic 52. What can be inferred from the scientists’ action of testing samples “3, 16, 31 days later”? A. They were trying to find a cure for the infected cows. B. They needed to collect enough RNA to build a family tree. C. They were studying how the virus’s infectiousness changed over time. D. They wanted to see how long the virus could survive in the environment. 53. What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph? A. The results of the study on the bird flu virus in cows. B. The methods used by scientists to study the bird flu virus in cows. C. The impact of the bird flu virus on different farm animals and cats. D. The reasons why healthy-looking cows carried the virus. 54. What conclusion can be drawn from Paragraph 5? A. The threat is new and serious; however, it can be managed. B. The primary solution is to stop drinking milk to avoid infection. C. Human expansion into wild areas is the only reason why bird flu spreads. D. This cow virus will finally change and make many people sick around the world. 55. What could be the best title for the passage? A. Using Genetic Trees to Track Virus Spread in Farms B. The Growing Threat of Bird Flu to Human Health C. How Milk Pasteurization keeps Our Food Safe D. Bird Flu Spillover in Dairy Cows 【答案】51. D 52. C 53. A 54. A 55. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了禽流感在奶牛中的传播情况，包括其传播方式、对不同动物的影响、科学家对此的研究以及应对措施等。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“Have you ever had the flu (流感)? If yes, you may remember coughing, tiredness, and body aches. Other animals get the flu too — it’s caused by a virus (病毒). Many flu virus types infect different animals, and sometimes a virus can “jump” between species, called spillover.(您是否曾感染过流感？若有过这般经历，定不会忘记那持续的咳嗽、席卷全身的倦怠与肌肉酸痛。其他动物同样会遭遇流感——这均由病毒引起。多种流感病毒会感染不同物种，有时病毒更能在种群间“跳跃”传播，这种现象被称为“溢出感染”)”可知，作者在第一段通过介绍人类患流感的情况，进而引出其他动物也会患流感，以及病毒在不同物种间传播的话题。故选D项。 【52题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“They measured virus levels by extracting RNA, checked how long cows made infectious virus (testing samples 3, 16, 31days later), and analyzed (分析) data to trace spread.(他们通过提取RNA来测量病毒水平，检查奶牛产生传染性病毒的时间(测试3天、16天、31天后的样本)，并分析数据以追踪传播情况)”可推知，科学家测试3天、16天、31天后的样本是为了研究病毒随时间变化的传染性。故选C项。 【53题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Results showed sick cows’ milk had the highest virus levels. Virus RNA lasted 31days, but it wasn’t infectious after day 3. The cow virus had unique mutations, different from known bird flu strains. Healthy-looking cows also carried the virus, spreading it to other farms. Some farm animals and cats were infected too — likely from drinking milk from sick cows.(结果显示，病牛的牛奶中病毒含量最高。病毒RNA持续了31天，但3天后就不再具有传染性。牛病毒有独特的突变，与已知的禽流感毒株不同。看起来健康的奶牛也携带病毒，并将其传播到其他农场。一些农场动物和猫也被感染了——可能是喝了病牛的牛奶)”可知，第四段主要介绍了对奶牛中禽流感病毒的研究结果。故选A项。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“This is the first time bird flu was seen spreading between mammals, like from cow to cow. If it mutates further to target mammals, it could reach humans. Human expansion— building farms, towns, and cities into wild areas — makes it easier for diseases like bird flu to jump between species. But there’s good news: pasteurizing (消毒) milk kills the virus, and teamwork between farmers, vet s, and researchers can slow or stop spread.(这是首次观察到禽流感在哺乳动物间传播——例如奶牛之间的相互传染。若病毒进一步变异以适应哺乳动物宿主，或将威胁人类健康。人类不断扩张的足迹——将农场、乡镇和城市建在野生动物栖息地——正为禽流感等疾病跨物种传播创造便利条件。但值得欣慰的是：巴氏消毒法可有效灭活牛奶中的病毒，而农民、兽医与研究人员的通力合作能够延缓甚至阻断疫情蔓延)”可推知，第五段可得出的结论是这一威胁前所未有且形势严峻，但仍在可控范围之内。故选A项。 【55题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，结合第一段中“Other animals get the flu too — it’s caused by a virus (病毒). Many flu virus types infect different animals, and sometimes a virus can “jump” between species, called spillover.(其他动物同样会遭遇流感——这均由病毒引起。多种流感病毒会感染不同物种，有时病毒更能在种群间“跳跃”传播，这种现象被称为“溢出感染”)”可知，本文主要介绍了禽流感在奶牛中的传播情况，包括其传播方式、对不同动物的影响、科学家对此的研究以及应对措施等，D项“Bird Flu Spillover in Dairy Cows(禽流感在奶牛中的溢出感染)”概括了文章主旨，适合作为文章标题。故选D项。 四、阅读表达（共10分，每小题2分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When I was in my second year in senior high school. I found a four-dollar-an-hour part-time job at Villanova Pizza. Like many of my friends, I longed to earn some pocket money from the job as well as gaining social experience. Just one week after I worked there, Stanley, the manager called me into his office. As the saying goes, “life isn’t a bed of roses”. My first job ended in failure. His reason was that I showed up late twice and took more breaks than others. “Oh, I’m a loser.” I thought to myself. I believed that thought was shared by my brothers, neither of whom had ever been fired, and my mother, though she would never express it in those terms. “I am too sad to do anything.” I complained to my father. After listening to my words, he laughed. “It’s not funny; I’m a loser.” I said. “No, you’re not. This is a part of growing up. You will be all right, my dear daughter,” he said, patting my shoulder. “Trust me. You are good enough.” I looked into my father’s eyes and I could see he really trusted me. And I believed him. Since then, “Trust me. You are good enough.” are the only words I have repeated to myself. I have worked hard to be a better person and cherished (珍惜) every chance I have got. Finally, I succeeded in entering a good university. After graduation I found my dream job. I couldn’t wait to call my father and show my gratitude. Look ahead when you experience something unpleasant and there is always someone around believing in you. When they believe in us, we begin to believe in ourselves, too. They tell us we are good enough over and over until we can hear it. 56. Why did the author do a part-time job when she was in senior high school?

She was late twice and took more breaks than others. 58. He said she is good enough and believed in her. 59. She called her father and thanked him. 60. We may fail sometimes, but it doesn’t mean we are losers.

They tell us we are good enough over and over until we can hear it.(当你经历不愉快的事情时，要向前看，总有人在你身边相信你。当他们相信我们时，我们也开始相信自己。他们一遍又一遍地告诉我们足够好，直到我们能听到为止)”可知，我们都会经历失败，因为这是成长的一部分，但是要相信自己的能力，失败不代表我们是失败者，对自己有信心，然后付出努力去变成更好的自己，故答案为We may fail sometimes, but it doesn’t mean we are losers. We should believe in ourselves and work hard. 五、书信写作（共25分） 61. 假设你是李津，你的英国笔友Peter对中国年轻人如何承担社会责任非常感兴趣。请你给他写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 分享一次你参与的公益或志愿活动（如：社区服务、支教、环保等），并描述你在此次活动中遇到的困难及如何克服的； 2. 谈谈你对青年担当的感悟。 3. 期待Peter可以分享自己经验。 注意： 1. 词数100字以上； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 3. 开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数；词汇提示： Dear Peter, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】 Dear Peter, I’m really excited to share with you a volunteer activity that I took part in. Last winter, I joined a community service project aimed at helping the elderly who lived alone. The difficulty I encountered was that some of the old people were quite hard to communicate with because of their severe hearing problems. What I did was to speak louder and slower, and I also used body language, which really helped break the communication barrier. I firmly believe that youth should take on social responsibilities actively. What we do, no matter how small, can bring warmth and hope to those in need. I’m eager to know about your experiences. Could you share what volunteer work you’ve done and what you’ve learned from it?

Wanda Dench and Jamal Hinton are a pair of unlikely friends. All it took to bring them together was a couple of texts to the wrong number. Dench, a grandmother of four kids, living in Mesa, Arizona, meant to text her grandson to invite him to her 2016 Thanksgiving dinner, but she reached Hinton by mistake. 17-year-old Hinton was confused that someone named his grandma had texted him while he was in class. She sent a smiling photo of herself to him. Hinton found she wasn’t his grandma. Attracted by her smile, full of sunshine and gentle love, Hinton thought this just matched his idea of a grandmother and he then asked if he still could have a plate. “Of course you can,” she replied. “That’s what grandmas do!” The big day came very fast. With a touch of anxiety, Hinton showed up at her home to share the meal. Dench was excited about his coming. Hinton told the Dench family about his plans for the future. She spoke highly of the young man. Hinton seemed to enjoy this grandma’s cooking and hoped to be invited more. The two were fast friends. The two have remained close since sharing their first turkey dinner. They are not limited to the Thanksgiving table. Dench and her husband called Hinton to visit a pumpkin farm with them. Hinton said he became Dench’s personal tech support, helping her set up her new phone. Years later, Hinton moved into his first apartment with his wife Mikaela. Later, they had their first baby. Certainly, Dench is a great-grandmother now. Their story was reported by a local TV station. Their photos of the two with handwritten notes that marked each moment moved many people. Their Thanksgiving party gets bigger and bigger every year and their connection grows deeper. Dench said, “I just feel like my life has been enriched since he’s come into it.” 41. What can we infer from paragraph 2? A. Hinton and Dench’s grandsons are classmates. B. Dench and Hinton like to make friends online. C. Hinton is attracted by Dench’s Thanksgiving dinner. D. Dench looks much like the grandma’s image in Hinton’s mind. 42. Which of the following can best describe Dench and Hinton’s first meeting? A. Pleasant. B. Funny. C. Nervous. D. Inspiring. 43. How did Dench and Hinton develop their friendship after their first dinner? A. Through family dinners. B. Through living close to each other. C. Through participating in each other’s lives. D. Through modern means of communication. 44. What do Dench’s words in the last paragraph show? A. She has a healthy lifestyle. B. She is proud of her writing skills. C. She can get well along with young people. D. She feels grateful for Hinton’s friendship. 45. What is the best title for this text? A. A wrong text B. The kind strangers C. The unlikely friends D. A Thanksgiving dinner I lost my phone when I was on holiday four months ago. With no phone to use on my way back to Milan, I decided to buy a book at the airport before boarding the plane. There was a discount on Stephen Hawking’s Brief Answers to the Big Questions, and while not necessarily an easy read for the non-reader I was at the time, it touched on some of the subjects I’m most passionate about so I decided it was worth the £5.99. I paid for it. To my great surprise, I read the whole book on that two-hour return flight — and so my love for reading began. I was confused. Before then, I used to buy books fairly often, hoping I’d read them, knowing months would go by and I wouldn’t even open them. So I wondered. What was different this time? After carefully analyzing the situation, I came up with an explanation. Now I realize, most books on my reading list as a child came from one of three places: suggested books, school books, and “to read before you die” books. As a kid, I didn’t have much experience when it came to books or reading. So when I decided to pick up a book, I thought these were the ones I should read and I believed I would surely enjoy them. Then I ended up thinking of myself as someone that simply didn’t like reading. It is obvious, in hindsight (在事后看来), that I actually really enjoyed reading. The few times I got to skim through a book that felt right, I would devour the whole thing in a matter of hours. Many people approach reading in the wrong way, so they finally end up disliking it the way I did. Keep on reading books you don’t like, and you’ll eventually convince yourself it is reading you don’t like. So just make sure, you are reading books that touch on subjects you are actually passionate about — don’t be scared to create your unique bookshelf. 46. What surprised the author? A.

What is the best title for the text? A. Learning from a great book B. How I fell in love with reading C. Creating a successful study tour D. How I developed a reading habit Have you ever had the flu (流感)? If yes, you may remember coughing, tiredness, and body aches. Other animals get the flu too — it’s caused by a virus (病毒). Many flu virus types infect different animals, and sometimes a virus can “jump” between species, called spillover. This happens because viruses change their genetic code (RNA) via mutations (突变): they get mutations when copying themselves, or by exchanging RNA with other flu viruses in the same infected animal. Tracking virus spread matters to stop outbreaks. Scientists compare viral RNA to make a “family tree” — closely related viruses sit near each other and share a source, while distant ones come from different places. In early 2024, U. S. dairy farmers noticed strange symptoms in cows: flu- like discomfort, thick yellow milk, and some even stopped producing milk. This worried experts, as bird flu had already spilled over to wild mammals like cats, foxes, and seals — so they set out to check if it had reached cows and how it spread. They studied 9 farms, collecting over 300 cow samples (样本) and testing dead wild animals found there. Lab work confirmed (确认) bird flu. They measured virus levels by extracting RNA, checked how long cows made infectious virus (testing samples 3, 16, 31days later), and analyzed (分析) data to trace spread. Results showed sick cows’ milk had the highest virus levels. Virus RNA lasted 31days, but it wasn’t infectious after day 3. The cow virus had unique mutations, different from known bird flu strains. Healthy-looking cows also carried the virus, spreading it to other farms. Some farm animals and cats were infected too — likely from drinking milk from sick cows. This is the first time bird flu was seen spreading between mammals, like from cow to cow. If it mutates further to target mammals, it could reach humans. Human expansion— building farms, towns, and cities into wild areas — makes it easier for diseases like bird flu to jump between species. But there’s good news: pasteurizing (消毒) milk kills the virus, and teamwork between farmers, vets, and researchers can slow or stop spread. 51. In writing Paragraph 1, the author aims to ________. A. make a comparison B. reach a conclusion C. present an argument D. introduce a topic 52. What can be inferred from the scientists’ action of testing samples “3, 16, 31 days later”? A. They were trying to find a cure for the infected cows. B. They needed to collect enough RNA to build a family tree. C. They were studying how the virus’s infectiousness changed over time. D. They wanted to see how long the virus could survive in the environment. 53. What is the main idea of the fourth paragraph? A. The results of the study on the bird flu virus in cows. B. The methods used by scientists to study the bird flu virus in cows. C. The impact of the bird flu virus on different farm animals and cats. D. The reasons why healthy-looking cows carried the virus. 54. What conclusion can be drawn from Paragraph 5? A. The threat is new and serious; however, it can be managed. B. The primary solution is to stop drinking milk to avoid infection. C. Human expansion into wild areas is the only reason why bird flu spreads. D. This cow virus will finally change and make many people sick around the world. 55. What could be the best title for the passage? A. Using Genetic Trees to Track Virus Spread in Farms B. The Growing Threat of Bird Flu to Human Health C. How Milk Pasteurization keeps Our Food Safe D. Bird Flu Spillover in Dairy Cows 四、阅读表达（共10分，每小题2分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 When I was in my second year in senior high school. I found a four-dollar-an-hour part-time job at Villanova Pizza. Like many of my friends, I longed to earn some pocket money from the job as well as gaining social experience. Just one week after I worked there, Stanley, the manager called me into his office. As the saying goes, “life isn’t a bed of roses”. My first job ended in failure. His reason was that I showed up late twice and took more breaks than others. “Oh, I’m a loser.” I thought to myself. I believed that thought was shared by my brothers, neither of whom had ever been fired, and my mother, though she would never express it in those terms. “I am too sad to do anything.” I complained to my father. After listening to my words, he laughed. “It’s not funny; I’m a loser.” I said. “No, you’re not. This is a part of growing up. You will be all right, my dear daughter,” he said, patting my shoulder. “Trust me. You are good enough.” I looked into my father’s eyes and I could see he really trusted me. And I believed him. Since then, “Trust me. You are good enough.” are the only words I have repeated to myself. I have worked hard to be a better person and cherished (珍惜) every chance I have got. Finally, I succeeded in entering a good university. After graduation I found my dream job. I couldn’t wait to call my father and show my gratitude. Look ahead when you experience something unpleasant and there is always someone around believing in you. When they believe in us, we begin to believe in ourselves, too. They tell us we are good enough over and over until we can hear it. 56. Why did the author do a part-time job when she was in senior high school?
