This warm educational policy (政策) has brought a clear and welcome 1 to students’ daily school life. In the past, the 10-minute break was rather short for most students. After finishing a 45-minute class, students had to 2 to do everything: get a drink, use the washroom, and get ready for the next class. There was almost no time to relax their minds 3 talk with friends. After a whole morning of non-stop learning, many students felt tired and found it hard to stay 4 . Now, the new 15-minute break gives students enough time to rest properly. Many go outside to enjoy the sunshine and fresh air. Some chat 5 with classmates or do some light exercise. “I don’t have to rush anymore during the break,” said Li Hua, a ninth-grader. “I can slow down and really enjoy the time 6 classes.” Most teachers have noticed 7 differences. Students return to class more energetic and ready to learn, and they can 8 new knowledge more easily. The longer break helps rest their eyes and 9 study stress, so it improves both their learning experience and results. This small but meaningful change shows that schools are thinking more about students’ physical and mental (心理的) 10 . Good rest is as important as hard study, and it helps young people grow in a healthier way. 1. A. change B. chance C. challenge D. choice 2. A. remember B. learn C. hurry D. continue 3. A. and B. or C. but D. so 4. A. private B. relaxed C. polite D. focused 5. A. wisely B. quickly C. happily D. sadly 6. A. in B. after C. before D. between 7. A. interesting B. positive C. familiar D. convenient 8. A. look up B. give up C. believe in D. take in 9. A. lowers B. requires C. litters D. values 10. A. health B. skill C. habit D. pity II. 阅读理解（本题20小题，每小题1.5分，共30分） A What will the world of tomorrow look like? The Straits Times, a Singapore-based newspaper, invited some local children to let their imaginations run wild — and they certainly didn’t hold back!Big Ideas for Tomorrow Olivia Li: Every family will have a remote-controlled (可遥控的) airplane. These planes will take us anywhere we want in just a few minutes. Eton Wang: In the future, most jobs will be done by robots, so people will need to work for only five minutes a day.

From busy restaurants in Kansas City to trendy bistros(小餐馆) in New York, solo diners have discovered that flying solo can lead to best experiences in the city. It is a good chance to stay away from noise and focus on yourself. One big advantage for solo eaters is getting a seat easily. While large groups wait in long lines for twenty minutes or more, a single person can often skip the crowd and get the best seat. You may sit in a quiet corner or by the window with a nice street view. Besides good seats, solo dining also brings special VIP treatment. Some restaurants may offer a free glass of champagne or a small treat to make your night unforgettable. Being alone also gives you total control over your clock. Without a partner to talk to, you can finally eat at your own speed. You can slurp (吸食) your soup, linger over dessert, and admire the cool decor(装潢) without ever feeling rushed. Dining alone also brings a sense of adventure. You are free to choose any restaurant you like and try new dishes without asking others for advice. It is better to put down your phone, talk to the waiter or just watch people around you. Solo dining helps build independence. It makes you enjoy staying alone. So walk into that new bistro with your head held high. Order the most adventurous thing on the menu and enjoy every single moment of your solo food tour. 16.What do we know about solo dining from Paragraph 1? A. It is still considered a lonely habit. B.

C Scientists have shown for the first time that chimpanzees enjoy pretend (假装) play. Just like human children, these great apes (猿) are able to use make-believe situations to explore the world around them as they grow up.chimpanzees Chimpanzees are humans’ closest relatives. Human children start playing with pretend objects (like having a tea party with no tea) between the ages of two and three. Apes have shown a similar kind of imagination. Wild chimpanzees, especially young females (雌性), have been seen carrying wood like dolls; and a captive (raised by humans) chimpanzee named Panbanisha seemed to pretend to eat blueberries. For years, researchers have supposed that chimpanzees enjoy imaginative play but they hadn’t been able to prove it. To test their ideas, researchers turned to a special chimpanzee called Kanzi, who was raised and kept by humans. By the time he died last year, aged 44, the great ape could understand thousands of English words and use pictures to communicate. Two scientists wanted to know if Kanzi could have a play tea party. First, the team taught Kanzi to choose a see-through cup filled with juice, rather than an empty one. Then they set up a “tea party”. In front of Kanzi, a researcher acted out filling two glasses with juice, and then pretended to empty one of them back into the bottle. More than half of the time, Kanzi chose the “full” cup, even though there was nothing in it. This showed he was playing the game and understood the idea of pretend juice. They repeated the experiment (实验) but used pretend grapes— and Kanzi still chose the imaginary grapes two thirds of the time. Christopher Krupenye, a scientist at Johns Hopkins University who worked on the study, told the New York Times, “This really shows us that there’s much more richness to these animals’ minds than people think.” 21. Why do chimpanzees enjoy pretend play? A. They are good at using imagination. B. They can learn more about the world. C. They look similar to human children. D. They like having tea parties without tea. 22. What do we know about Kanzi? A. He could communicate in English. B. He was a wild ape living in the forest. C. He understood the idea of pretend play. D. He refused to take part in party games. 23. Which is the correct order of the experiment steps of Kanzi? a. learn to pick the full cup b. pretend to pour one cup back c. pick the pretended full cup d. pretend to pour into two cups A. a → b → c → d. B. a → d → b → c. C. c → a → d → b. D. c → b → d → a. 24. What does the scientist mean in the last paragraph? A. Animals’ minds are richer than we realized. B. Chimpanzees are smarter than children. C. Animals have the minds just like humans do. D. Chimpanzees should be kept in the wild. 25. What is the main idea of the passage? A. How chimpanzees play tea parties with relatives. B. The abilities of the chimpanzees raised by humans. C. The relationship between chimpanzees and humans. D. Chimpanzees have imaginative minds like humans. D A very important long-term study from Stanford University has proved that focus and continuous attention are far stronger predictors of children’s schoolwork success than IQ scores, natural talent, or family background. 26 It tested their thinking skills, self-control, and attention time together with their school performance. The study found that students with strong focus always did better than those with higher IQ but weaker attention time. 27 These abilities directly lead to better grades, stronger learning habits, and higher long-term achievement. 28 Schools and families often pay too much attention to talent, and early school learning while ignoring (忽视) the basic role of attention. Children can improve their focus by keeping daily plans, spending less time on screens, doing short practice tasks, and having chances to play without being disturbed (打扰). The lessons for parenting and education are clear: do not only push kids for more homework, or earlier learning. 29 This not only improves school performance, but also helps them to control their feelings, be patient and face difficulties well all their lives. 30 Children who master attention early will not only achieve more in school but also live their adult lives with clearer minds, self-control and clear life goals. 根据短文内容，从选项中选出填入文中空白处的最佳选项，选项中有一项为多余选项。 A. But it’s not enough to pay attention to learning results. B. IQ is quite hard to change, but focus is a trainable skill. C. Instead, parents should put developing children’s ability to focus first. D. In a world full of disturbances, the power of focus has become valuable. E. The research followed thousands of students from primary school to high school. F. Focus allows children to follow rules, learn well and keep trying when facing challenges. 第II卷（满分50分） III. 语篇填空（本题10小题，每小题1.5分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Have you read about Clay Figure Zhang (泥人张) in your textbook?

IV. 阅读表达 A 阅读下面短文，完成41至44小题。（共10分） Luke, a blind Australian Shepherd (牧羊犬), came to us seven years ago from a farm. He can’t see, but moves with inspiring fearlessness, amazing smell and hearing. That’s how he notices things. He seems to understand he’ll sometimes run into things, but that doesn’t stop him. Luke looks like the classic Australian Shepherd—grey, white, brown and black with spots (斑点) all over. His eyes look old and cloudy, but they have life in them. At home, he knows where everything is and only bumps into (撞到) things when he’s excited. Therefore, we make sure not to move things unnecessarily and always keep the house tidy. Luke loves chewing (啃) on bones. He often walks by other dogs without noticing them. Cats can easily trick him. One cat enjoys letting Luke find him, and then moves just a bit to restart the game. Luke is always happy and smiles a lot. And he can sense when you’re down. Last year, when I had two heart attacks, Luke was deeply upset the time I was in the hospital, and he stayed close to me after I came back. His unconditional love brought me back to life again. Through him, we have learned patience and acceptance. He always cares—and reminds us that we can, too. When people learn Luke is blind, they often feel sorry for him. We once tried to explain that he lives a full and happy life, but now we simply nod and say thank you. We know very well the real joy he brings to everyone around him every day. He is different, yet able. Each day, he shows us that it’s okay to just be yourself. You don’t have to be perfect; you just have to keep trying. In life, you may bump into things or even hit your head, but you can’t give up. Luke never would. 41. How do the writer and his family help Luke at home? (2分) 42.

This is the promise of quantum computing (量子计算), a new and exciting way of processing information. Regular computers use “bits (位)” as the basic unit of information, which can be either a 0 or a 1. Quantum computers, however, use “qubits” (quantum bits). The special thing about qubits is their ability to be 0, 1, or both at the same time! This special property, called superposition (叠加), allows quantum computers to deal with information in a completely new way and solve certain very difficult problems much faster. (A) ____________________________________________? Medicine: They could help scientists study how the tiniest building blocks of life work, which may lead to the discovery of new drugs and treatments for diseases. Weather Forecasting: By analyzing (分析) huge amounts of weather data very quickly, they could give us more accurate (准确的) forecasts, helping people prepare for severe weather like storms much better. Online Safety: They could create highly strong codes to protect our personal information online, making the Internet a safer place for everyone. Of course, quantum computing is still a young science. Building stable and powerful quantum computers is a big challenge for scientists today. But the work continues, and in the coming years, this technology might truly change our world, making it healthier, safer, and smarter. 45. What is the difference between regular computers and quantum computers?（2分） 46. 根据短文，完成句子（A）。（2分） 47.
