Whether you’re having new purchases delivered to your dormitory, or searching for some place out of campus to store your things, BoxIt is always here to help. We store suitcases, cycles, sacks and stacks of other stuff in our secure sites. If you need packing materials, tell us and we’ll send them to you. You can upload photos of the things in each box to your own BoxIt account to remind yourself what is where, and then download our app to monitor your belongings as they move. When you’re ready, book the delivery of your boxes online. Just let us know what you need to be stored and we’ll send one of our staff to pick your things up, but remember that if the address we are delivering your boxes to is farther than 25 miles from where we picked them up, there is an additional charge. Collections are free from Monday to Friday if we collect between 8 a.m. and 8 p.m. Don’t leave any empty space in your box — this makes your box weaker and may damage the things inside, and not filling the box also means you need more boxes so it costs you more. And don’t put too much into your box — keep it under 25 kilos in weight. If you pack the following items in your boxes, we can’t be responsible for any damage to your things when we’re moving them: ·Knives and sharp objects ·Musical instruments in soft cases ·Food ·Antiques ·Pets or any other living creatures ·Mirrors or large glass items Make sure the driver can easily get into your place and that you are at your address for the full duration of the collection time. 26.

Its delivery supports remote tracking. C. Its service is intended for university staff. D. It can collect items in the absence of the owner. B I had no idea it was possible to sweat so heavily without engaging in any physical activity. I wasn’t standing at the open door of a plane thousands of feet in the air, ready to jump out into the wild, blue sky. Rather, I was simply sitting on my bed, wearing my most comfortable clothes, and waiting to hit the “Enter classroom” button on my computer. I had signed up for an online language lesson with a Portuguese language tutor. For the past few months, I had been studying the language and I knew video chat was the next best option. As I clicked the button, a friendly face popped up on the screen in front of me. At that moment, my mind froze. Feeling my nervousness, my tutor said something I still remember today, “Learning a new language is like showing your weakness to the world. It can be uncomfortable.” The ice was officially broken. As I’ve progressed along on my language journey, I often think back to her insight. She is right. We take as a given the power to express ourselves freely, and when that power is taken away, we are brought to a place of weakness. Yet if we keep pushing forward despite this weakness, we will unlock a wealth of valuable gains. My three-year-old son has big feelings but has insufficient vocabulary to properly express himself. When I started learning Portuguese, I realized how difficult it must be for him to be understood in the adult world around him. I’m a better parent now. When my husband and I finally visited Portugal and ordered food in Portuguese at a small shop, the server thanked us for taking time to learn their language. Learning Portuguese taught me that attempting to learn someone else’s language shows respect not only for their homeland but for the people themselves. Taking on the challenge of Portuguese has also awakened a fire within me. If you had told me a year ago that I would be taking a writing course, competing in competitions at my gym, or learning about car maintenance, I truly wouldn’t have believed it. Now I deeply believe that challenging yourself can be rewarding in ways you will never know unless you attempt it. 29. What was the author doing in Paragraph 1? A. Working out at home. B. Taking an entrance exam. C. Preparing herself for a class. D. Signing up for a language club. 30. Hearing the tutor’s words, the author felt ________. A. shocked B. defensive C. concerned D. relieved 31. After learning Portuguese, the author ________. A. showed competitive advantages B. started to try Portuguese cuisine C. developed a passion for travelling D. became an understanding mother 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. It is never too late to learn something new. B. Taking on challenges may bring perfection. C. Leaving the comfort zone offers new visions of life. D. Language learning helps clear up misunderstandings. C On 24 May 2000, a group of mathematicians took to a stage in Paris to set some problems. These were the seven Millennium Problems, the hardest mathematical puzzles then known. The exercise was organized by the Clay Mathematics Institute, a nonprofit that promised anyone who could solve one would be rewarded with a $1 million prize. Twenty-five years later, how have mathematicians got on? Grigori Perelman proved the Poincaré conjecture, the only Millennium Problem to fall so far. A conjecture in maths is a statement thought to be true but not yet proven. But what about the six that remain? In fact, tools are everything for mathematicians. That is why Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz each developed calculus (微积分) in the late 17th century. Back then, there was no technique for describing properties that change over time or space. But once the right tool is in the right hands, progress is almost inevitable: with calculus, Newton performed mathematical miracles such as describing the motion of the planets under gravity. Now there is a new tool that might make quite a difference. “Machine learning is quickly developing as another tool in the toolbox,” says Dan Freed at Harvard University. But, he adds, “Some of the Millennium Problems might be less amenable to using machine learning.” That is because AI relies on being fed lots of data. In many fields, large volumes of useful data simply don’t exist. Even in the absence of large datasets, there might still be scope for AI to dig into complicated mathematical arguments. “One of the interesting things about these millennium challenges is that the problems can be simple enough for us to pose, but might have a complexity to the proof that is beyond the human mind to navigate,” says Marcus du Sautoy at the University of Oxford. AI might have the required potential to find buried links, which mathematicians can then pick up and work with. “Over the next decade, we might see some interesting new conjectures emerging that we wouldn’t have been able to see without the use of this tool,” he says. Just as Galileo was able to see more of the heavens using a telescope, AI could give a deeper view of numbers. Whether the Clay Mathematics Institute would accept an AI-led solution to one of its problems depends on mathematicians’ willingness to see it as solved. In 2000, when the prizes were announced, Alain Connes at the College de France in Paris, said the seven problems were “totally inaccessible to computers”. But with mathematicians now open to working with AI, that seems like one more conjecture that might fall. 33. What can be inferred about the tools in maths? A. They lose value when a conjecture is proven. B. They are more likely to emerge with rewards. C. They serve as mathematicians’ ultimate pursuit. D. They are what it takes to make progress in maths. 34. What does the phrase “amenable to” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Resistant to. B. Independent of. C. Responsive to. D. Tolerant of. 35. What can we learn from this passage? A. The author agrees with Dan on AI’s role in maths. B. AI can make up for the limitations of human mind. C. AI is bound to solve the rest Millennium Problems. D. Mathematicians’ acceptance of AI is hard to predict. D Side-blotched lizards (侧斑蜥蜴) have a colorful set of mating strategies. Some males, with orange throats, are large and fight their way to a group of mates. Others, with blue throats, are a bit smaller and bond with just a single female. And then there is a third type. These lizards, which have yellow throats, look very similar to females. In a rock-paper-scissors-type mating strategy, the big orange ones can chase off the medium blue ones, who, in turn, can keep a close eye on their single mate. The yellow ones, however, sometimes sneak into (溜进) the big males’ group of mates. The lizards face a trade-off between abundance and the cost of confirmation. It is a trade-off that is increasingly of concern to humans, too. The cost of producing text, video or audio has declined; doing so now means just a few words on a chatbot rather than hours of effort. As a consequence, roughly half of articles published on the internet last year were AI-generated. How can internet users distinguish an article by a genuine but little-known news website from outright misinformation? Market participants often rely on “costly signals” to make such choices. An employer looking for a new hire, say, may seek applicants with a degree that took effort and a certain amount of skill, which indicates they might bring the same qualities to their work. The certificate allows employers to distinguish between good and bad applicants — creating what economists call a “separating equilibrium” and enabling transactions between willing participants. During an earlier information age, newspaper branding provided a costly signal. In what was, in game-theoretic terms, a “reputation game” newspapers would, issue by issue, reveal exactly how focused on the truth they were. Repeated interactions with a reader, when they were deciding which paper to purchase, constituted a separating equilibrium. Content farms, websites that copied reputable news pages but with made-up stories, however, can “sneak into” these brands like the yellow lizards. Thus the “separating equilibrium” is devolving into a “pooling equilibrium”, in which there is no way of telling between one type of creation and another. The problem with a “pooling equilibrium”, as George Akerlof put it in a Nobel-prizewinning paper, is that “Dishonest dealings tend to drive honest dealings out of the market.” Without a way to tell good from bad, buyers treat everything as bad. Among side-blotched lizards, the rock-paper-scissors nature of the lizards’ mating strategies means that if any of the colours becomes too common, one of the other types receives an advantage. Optimistically, then, an outpouring in the productivity of misinformation generators may provide a similar advantage to the journalistic equivalent of the blue-throated lizards — publications that jealously guard their reputation for truth-telling. 36. Why does the author mention the example of side-blotched lizards in Paragraph 1? A. To share a popular trend. B. To criticize a costly trade-off. C. To reveal a disturbing issue. D. To introduce a mating strategy. 37. According to the passage, which of the following is an example of separating equilibrium? A. Socially-responsible and profit-driven firms spend equally on charity. B. We tend to learn a common language regardless of native tongue. C. The expense of acquiring education is similar across ability types. D. Firms sustain high-input advertising campaigns to reflect quality. 38. Which of the following would the author agree with? A. Content farms spare no efforts to focus on the truth. B. Readers can tell facts from fiction through costly signals. C. Publications lose competitiveness in maintaining reputation. D. The cost of confirming information genuineness has dropped. 39. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Will Publications Survive in the Flood of Misinformation? B. Costly Signals: Trade-off Between Real and Made-up C. Misinformation: Threat to Newspapers’ Reputation D. Has Internet Supercharged Misinformation? 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Picture a table surrounded by curious minds, each desiring to uncover the mysteries of the universe, as they start a journey of intellectual exploration through the art of challenging questions. The scene summarizes the essence of intellectual questions. ____40____ They’re the kind of questions that make you frown, scratch your head, and maybe even lose a little sleep. ____41____ For instance, as AI systems become increasingly complex, we’re forced to deal with some pretty mind-bending questions, like “Will AI ever achieve true consciousness?” or “Could it one day surpass human intelligence?” Environmental sustainability presents another set of urgent scientific questions: “How can we balance economic growth with environmental protection? Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?” Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries. ____42____ We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?” You might be wondering: “Why bother with all these heavy questions? Can’t we just enjoy a nice, light conversation about the weather?” Well, sure, we could. But where’s the fun in that? Asking intellectual questions isn’t just a way to sound smart at dinner parties. When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world. ____43____ And the benefits go beyond personal development. Engaging in intellectual questions can promote understanding. When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement. ____44____ Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?” So next time you find yourself in a conversation, don’t be afraid to dig a little deeper, to ask the big questions, and to challenge assumptions. Your brain and the world will thank you for it. A. Intellectual questions arise accordingly. B. It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain. C. Intellectual questions are not just surface-level inquiries. D. Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress. E. In a world full of challenges, they are more important than ever. F. As we explore further, the questions touch on the very fabric of our society. G. The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner. 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第45、46题各2分，第47题3分，第48题5分， 共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Fast fashion has made it easy for consumers to purchase new clothing frequently and at low cost. But today many people are now seeking something better: clothes that last, are made with intention, and carry real meaning. This is why craftsmanship is coming back. One visible expression of this shift is the renewed interest in repairing garments. From patching worn spots to adding personal embroidery (刺绣), people are doing it for fun or making their own style. With visible mending, they are not hiding the damage, but showing the story. This hands-on engagement fosters a deeper connection between individuals and their clothing. People no longer just want to wear clothes — they want to be part of them. The appreciation for craftsmanship is not limited to personal practices, but extends to a broader cultural reevaluation of fashion traditions. Techniques and styles once dismissed as outdated are now increasingly valued for their detail, history, and authenticity. In contrast to the uniformity promoted by fast fashion, many consumers are turning toward garments that carry culture, family stories, and time-honored skills. You see them in handmade jackets and detailed weaving. Sustainability is another major driver of the revival. Fast fashion generates enormous waste and environmental harm, while handcrafted pieces frequently use natural and recycled materials. Many are made to order, eliminating excess production, and most can be repaired and passed down rather than thrown away. Choosing handmade is gentler on the planet and better to the people making the clothes. While big retailers still push out the most clothes, smaller brands are changing the game — not by volume, but by values. They focus on quality over quantity, working with skilled local makers and using materials that last. To avoid waste, many of them slow down production, skip the constant trend-chasing, and even offer pre-orders, which is gaining popularity for letting people wear something real. In a world full of quick, disposable goods, the comeback of craftsmanship represents not a passing trend, but a fundamental shift toward meaning, responsibility, and lasting value in fashion. 45. What kind of clothes are many people looking for today? __________________________________________________________________________ 46. Apart from personal interest, what other factors contribute to the comeback of craftsmanship? __________________________________________________________________________ 47. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.

I wasn’t standing at the open door of a plane thousands of feet in the air, ready to jump out into the wild, blue sky. Rather, I was simply sitting on my bed, wearing my most comfortable clothes, and waiting to hit the “Enter classroom” button on my computer. I had signed up for an online language lesson with a Portuguese language tutor. For the past few months, I had been studying the language and I knew video chat was the next best option. As I clicked the button, a friendly face popped up on the screen in front of me. At that moment, my mind froze. Feeling my nervousness, my tutor said something I still remember today, “Learning a new language is like showing your weakness to the world. It can be uncomfortable.” The ice was officially broken. As I’ve progressed along on my language journey, I often think back to her insight. She is right. We take as a given the power to express ourselves freely, and when that power is taken away, we are brought to a place of weakness. Yet if we keep pushing forward despite this weakness, we will unlock a wealth of valuable gains. My three-year-old son has big feelings but has insufficient vocabulary to properly express himself. When I started learning Portuguese, I realized how difficult it must be for him to be understood in the adult world around him. I’m a better parent now. When my husband and I finally visited Portugal and ordered food in Portuguese at a small shop, the server thanked us for taking time to learn their language. Learning Portuguese taught me that attempting to learn someone else’s language shows respect not only for their homeland but for the people themselves. Taking on the challenge of Portuguese has also awakened a fire within me. If you had told me a year ago that I would be taking a writing course, competing in competitions at my gym, or learning about car maintenance, I truly wouldn’t have believed it. Now I deeply believe that challenging yourself can be rewarding in ways you will never know unless you attempt it. 29. What was the author doing in Paragraph 1? A. Working out at home. B. Taking an entrance exam. C. Preparing herself for a class. D. Signing up for a language club. 30. Hearing the tutor’s words, the author felt ________. A. shocked B. defensive C. concerned D. relieved 31. After learning Portuguese, the author ________. A. showed competitive advantages B. started to try Portuguese cuisine C. developed a passion for travelling D. became an understanding mother 32. What can we learn from the passage? A. It is never too late to learn something new. B. Taking on challenges may bring perfection. C. Leaving the comfort zone offers new visions of life. D. Language learning helps clear up misunderstandings. 【答案】29. C 30. D 31. D 32.

I’m a better parent now.(当我开始学习葡萄牙语时，我体会到儿子在成人世界里难以被理解的难处，如今我成了更善解人意的母亲。)” 可知，学习葡萄牙语后，作者变成了一位更懂得体谅孩子的母亲。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第五段“Learning Portuguese taught me that attempting to learn someone else’s language shows respect not only for their homeland but for the people themselves.(学习葡萄牙语让我明白：主动去学习他人的语言，不仅是对他们祖国的尊重，更是对当地人民本身的尊重。)”及最后一段“Now I deeply believe that challenging yourself can be rewarding in ways you will never know unless you attempt it.(如今我深信，挑战自我所带来的收获，只有亲身尝试才能体会，其价值难以预知。)” 可知，走出舒适区、勇于挑战自我，会带给人全新的人生眼界与收获。 C On 24 May 2000, a group of mathematicians took to a stage in Paris to set some problems. These were the seven Millennium Problems, the hardest mathematical puzzles then known. The exercise was organized by the Clay Mathematics Institute, a nonprofit that promised anyone who could solve one would be rewarded with a $1 million prize. Twenty-five years later, how have mathematicians got on? Grigori Perelman proved the Poincaré conjecture, the only Millennium Problem to fall so far. A conjecture in maths is a statement thought to be true but not yet proven. But what about the six that remain? In fact, tools are everything for mathematicians. That is why Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz each developed calculus (微积分) in the late 17th century. Back then, there was no technique for describing properties that change over time or space. But once the right tool is in the right hands, progress is almost inevitable: with calculus, Newton performed mathematical miracles such as describing the motion of the planets under gravity. Now there is a new tool that might make quite a difference. “Machine learning is quickly developing as another tool in the toolbox,” says Dan Freed at Harvard University. But, he adds, “Some of the Millennium Problems might be less amenable to using machine learning.” That is because AI relies on being fed lots of data. In many fields, large volumes of useful data simply don’t exist. Even in the absence of large datasets, there might still be scope for AI to dig into complicated mathematical arguments. “One of the interesting things about these millennium challenges is that the problems can be simple enough for us to pose, but might have a complexity to the proof that is beyond the human mind to navigate,” says Marcus du Sautoy at the University of Oxford. AI might have the required potential to find buried links, which mathematicians can then pick up and work with. “Over the next decade, we might see some interesting new conjectures emerging that we wouldn’t have been able to see without the use of this tool,” he says. Just as Galileo was able to see more of the heavens using a telescope, AI could give a deeper view of numbers. Whether the Clay Mathematics Institute would accept an AI-led solution to one of its problems depends on mathematicians’ willingness to see it as solved. In 2000, when the prizes were announced, Alain Connes at the College de France in Paris, said the seven problems were “totally inaccessible to computers”. But with mathematicians now open to working with AI, that seems like one more conjecture that might fall. 33. What can be inferred about the tools in maths? A. They lose value when a conjecture is proven. B. They are more likely to emerge with rewards. C. They serve as mathematicians’ ultimate pursuit. D. They are what it takes to make progress in maths. 34. What does the phrase “amenable to” underlined in Paragraph 4 most probably mean? A. Resistant to. B. Independent of. C. Responsive to. D. Tolerant of. 35. What can we learn from this passage? A. The author agrees with Dan on AI’s role in maths. B. AI can make up for the limitations of human mind. C. AI is bound to solve the rest Millennium Problems. D. Mathematicians’ acceptance of AI is hard to predict. 【答案】33. D 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了2000 年七大千禧年数学难题对外公布，如今仅有一道被破解。人工智能成为数学新工具，虽有局限，但有望攻克难题，数学家对它的态度也逐渐改观。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“In fact, tools are everything for mathematicians. That is why Isaac Newton and Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz each developed calculus (微积分) in the late 17th century. Back then, there was no technique for describing properties that change over time or space. But once the right tool is in the right hands, progress is almost inevitable( 事实上，工具对于数学家来说至关重要。这就是为什么艾萨克·牛顿和戈特弗里德·威廉·莱布尼茨在 17 世纪末各自发展了微积分。当时，还没有一种技术可以描述随时间或空间变化的属性。但一旦合适的工具落入合适的人手中，进步几乎是必然的)”可推知，工具是数学领域取得进步的必要条件。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线短语所在句后给出了解释“That is because AI relies on being fed lots of data. In many fields, large volumes of useful data simply don’t exist.( 这是因为人工智能需要大量的数据作为输入。在许多领域，有用的数据量根本就不存在)”由此可知，部分千禧年难题不适合用机器学习解决，即对机器学习方法“响应不佳”。amenable to意为“易受……影响的；适合……的”，与C选项responsive to“对……有反应的、适用的”语义最接近。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中“Even in the absence of large datasets, there might still be scope for AI to dig into complicated mathematical arguments. “One of the interesting things about these millennium challenges is that the problems can be simple enough for us to pose, but might have a complexity to the proof that is beyond the human mind to navigate,” says Marcus du Sautoy at the University of Oxford. AI might have the required potential to find buried links, which mathematicians can then pick up and work with. “Over the next decade, we might see some interesting new conjectures emerging that we wouldn’t have been able to see without the use of this tool,” he says.( 即便没有大量的数据集，人工智能仍有可能深入探究复杂的数学论证。牛津大学的马库斯·杜·索托伊说：“这些千年难题的有趣之处在于，问题本身可能简单到我们可以提出，但证明过程的复杂性却超出了人类思维所能处理的范围。”人工智能或许具备找到隐藏联系的潜力，而数学家们可以据此进行研究和应用。他说：“在未来十年，我们可能会看到一些新的有趣猜想出现，如果没有这种工具的使用，我们是无法看到这些猜想的。”)”可推知，人工智能能够弥补人类思维的局限性。 D Side-blotched lizards (侧斑蜥蜴) have a colorful set of mating strategies. Some males, with orange throats, are large and fight their way to a group of mates. Others, with blue throats, are a bit smaller and bond with just a single female. And then there is a third type. These lizards, which have yellow throats, look very similar to females. In a rock-paper-scissors-type mating strategy, the big orange ones can chase off the medium blue ones, who, in turn, can keep a close eye on their single mate. The yellow ones, however, sometimes sneak into (溜进) the big males’ group of mates. The lizards face a trade-off between abundance and the cost of confirmation. It is a trade-off that is increasingly of concern to humans, too. The cost of producing text, video or audio has declined; doing so now means just a few words on a chatbot rather than hours of effort. As a consequence, roughly half of articles published on the internet last year were AI-generated. How can internet users distinguish an article by a genuine but little-known news website from outright misinformation? Market participants often rely on “costly signals” to make such choices. An employer looking for a new hire, say, may seek applicants with a degree that took effort and a certain amount of skill, which indicates they might bring the same qualities to their work. The certificate allows employers to distinguish between good and bad applicants — creating what economists call a “separating equilibrium” and enabling transactions between willing participants. During an earlier information age, newspaper branding provided a costly signal. In what was, in game-theoretic terms, a “reputation game” newspapers would, issue by issue, reveal exactly how focused on the truth they were. Repeated interactions with a reader, when they were deciding which paper to purchase, constituted a separating equilibrium. Content farms, websites that copied reputable news pages but with made-up stories, however, can “sneak into” these brands like the yellow lizards. Thus the “separating equilibrium” is devolving into a “pooling equilibrium”, in which there is no way of telling between one type of creation and another. The problem with a “pooling equilibrium”, as George Akerlof put it in a Nobel-prizewinning paper, is that “Dishonest dealings tend to drive honest dealings out of the market.” Without a way to tell good from bad, buyers treat everything as bad. Among side-blotched lizards, the rock-paper-scissors nature of the lizards’ mating strategies means that if any of the colours becomes too common, one of the other types receives an advantage. Optimistically, then, an outpouring in the productivity of misinformation generators may provide a similar advantage to the journalistic equivalent of the blue-throated lizards — publications that jealously guard their reputation for truth-telling. 36. Why does the author mention the example of side-blotched lizards in Paragraph 1? A. To share a popular trend. B. To criticize a costly trade-off. C. To reveal a disturbing issue. D. To introduce a mating strategy. 37. According to the passage, which of the following is an example of separating equilibrium? A. Socially-responsible and profit-driven firms spend equally on charity. B. We tend to learn a common language regardless of native tongue. C. The expense of acquiring education is similar across ability types. D. Firms sustain high-input advertising campaigns to reflect quality. 38. Which of the following would the author agree with? A. Content farms spare no efforts to focus on the truth. B. Readers can tell facts from fiction through costly signals. C. Publications lose competitiveness in maintaining reputation. D. The cost of confirming information genuineness has dropped. 39. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Will Publications Survive in the Flood of Misinformation? B. Costly Signals: Trade-off Between Real and Made-up C. Misinformation: Threat to Newspapers’ Reputation D. Has Internet Supercharged Misinformation? 【答案】36. C 37. D 38. B 39. B 【解析】 【导语】本文以侧斑蜥蜴的博弈生存策略为引，阐释网络时代虚假信息泛滥，真假信息难以区分的社会问题。 【36题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“In a rock-paper-scissors-type mating strategy, the big orange ones can chase off the medium blue ones, who, in turn, can keep a close eye on their single mate. The yellow ones, however, sometimes sneak into (溜进) the big males’ group of mates.(在一种石头剪刀布式的交配策略中，体型大的橙色喉部蜥蜴可以赶走中等体型的蓝色喉部蜥蜴，而蓝色喉部蜥蜴能够密切守护自己唯一的配偶。然而黄色喉部蜥蜴有时会溜进大型雄性蜥蜴的配偶群中)”以及第二段“The lizards face a trade-off between abundance and the cost of confirmation. It is a trade-off that is increasingly of concern to humans, too.(这些蜥蜴面临着数量与验证成本之间的权衡，这也是人类愈发关注的一种权衡)”可知，作者列举蜥蜴例子，是为了引出后文人类社会真假信息混杂的严峻问题。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Market participants often rely on “costly signals” to make such choices. ...The certificate allows employers to distinguish between good and bad applicants — creating what economists call a “separating equilibrium” and enabling transactions between willing participants.(市场参与者通常依靠“高成本信号”做出此类选择……证书让雇主区分优劣求职者，形成经济学家所说的“分离均衡”)”可知，分离均衡指“依靠高成本投入区分优劣、辨别真伪”。D选项“企业投入高成本广告彰显品质”符合该定义。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Market participants often rely on “costly signals” to make such choices. An employer looking for a new hire, say, may seek applicants with a degree that took effort and a certain amount of skill, which indicates they might bring the same qualities to their work. (市场参与者往往依靠高成本信号做出这类选择。例如，招聘员工的雇主会寻找付出努力、具备一定技能才获得学位的求职者，这表明他们会将同等品质带入工作中)”可知，作者认可读者能够借助高成本信号分辨事实与虚假内容。 【39题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，并结合第二段中“The lizards face a trade-off between abundance and the cost of confirmation. It is a trade-off that is increasingly of concern to humans, too.(这些蜥蜴面临着数量与核验成本之间的权衡，这也是人类愈发关注的一种权衡)”以及第三段中“Market participants often rely on “costly signals” to make such choices.(市场参与者往往依靠高成本信号来做出这类判断)”可知，文章以蜥蜴生存策略作类比，围绕高成本信号展开，探讨真实信息与虚假信息之间的博弈权衡，B项“高成本信号：真实信息与虚假信息间的权衡”贴合全文核心主旨，适合作标题。故选 B。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题纸上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Picture a table surrounded by curious minds, each desiring to uncover the mysteries of the universe, as they start a journey of intellectual exploration through the art of challenging questions. The scene summarizes the essence of intellectual questions. ____40____ They’re the kind of questions that make you frown, scratch your head, and maybe even lose a little sleep. ____41____ For instance, as AI systems become increasingly complex, we’re forced to deal with some pretty mind-bending questions, like “Will AI ever achieve true consciousness?” or “Could it one day surpass human intelligence?” Environmental sustainability presents another set of urgent scientific questions: “How can we balance economic growth with environmental protection? Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?” Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries. ____42____ We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?” You might be wondering: “Why bother with all these heavy questions? Can’t we just enjoy a nice, light conversation about the weather?” Well, sure, we could. But where’s the fun in that? Asking intellectual questions isn’t just a way to sound smart at dinner parties. When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world. ____43____ And the benefits go beyond personal development. Engaging in intellectual questions can promote understanding. When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement. ____44____ Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?” So next time you find yourself in a conversation, don’t be afraid to dig a little deeper, to ask the big questions, and to challenge assumptions. Your brain and the world will thank you for it. A. Intellectual questions arise accordingly. B. It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain. C. Intellectual questions are not just surface-level inquiries. D. Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress. E. In a world full of challenges, they are more important than ever. F. As we explore further, the questions touch on the very fabric of our society. G. The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner. 【答案】40. C 41. G 42. A 43.

Could we engineer our way out of a climate disaster?”(例如，随着人工智能系统变得愈发复杂，我们不得不面对一些十分烧脑的问题，比如“人工智能能否真正产生意识？”或是“未来它是否会超越人类智力？”环境可持续发展也引出了另一系列亟待解答的科学问题：“我们该如何平衡经济发展与环境保护？我们能否依靠科技手段化解气候灾难？”)”可知后文举例多个领域都存在深度思辨问题；故推知：空处作为段落总起句，应引出富有深度、有价值的思辨问题遍布各个领域，统领下文举例内容；选项G“The questions that unlock deep insights and meaningful connections lie in every corner.(能够启发深刻见解、建立深层关联的问题存在于各个角落。)”符合原文内容。 【42题详解】 根据前文“Similarly, space exploration has fascinated humans for centuries.(同样，几个世纪以来太空探索一直吸引着人类。)”以及空后一句 “We may wonder: “Could we one day settle on other planets?”(我们或许会疑惑：未来我们能否在其他星球定居？)” 可知前文承接 AI、环保话题转到太空探索，空后引出太空相关的思辨疑问；故推知：空处应表示伴随太空探索这一话题，相应的思辨问题也随之产生，起到承上启下作用；选项A“Intellectual questions arise accordingly.(相应地，思辨性问题随之产生。)” 符合原文内容。 【43题详解】 根据前文“When we engage with intellectual questions, we’re developing critical thinking skills, enhancing our ability to analyze complex issues, and broadening our understanding of the world.(当我们探究思辨性问题时，我们正在培养批判性思维能力，提升分析复杂问题的能力，并拓宽对世界的认知。)” 及空后一句“And the benefits go beyond personal development.(这些益处远不止个人成长层面。)”可知空前讲述思考思辨性问题对个人思维与认知的提升作用，后文提及其他方面的益处；故推知：空处会总结思考思辨性问题对个人思维与认知的益处，衔接前文；选项B“It’s like going to the gym, but for your brain.(这就像是给大脑健身。)” 符合原文内容。 【44题详解】 根据前文“When we struggle with difficult questions together, we learn to appreciate different viewpoints, to challenge our own assumptions, and to find common ground even in disagreement.(当我们一同钻研难题时，我们学会欣赏不同观点，质疑自身固有想法，即便存在分歧也能找到共识。)”以及空后一句“Didn’t many of the world’s greatest discoveries and inventions start with someone asking “What if?” or “Why not?”?(世界上许多伟大的发现和发明，不都是始于有人提出 “假如会怎样？”“为何不试试？” 这类问题吗？)”可知，空前讲述思辨问题促进人与人之间的理解包容，空后关联到人类发明创造；故推知：空处递进说明提出深刻问题能推动创新与社会进步，衔接前后逻辑；选项D“Moreover, raising big questions drives innovation and progress.(此外，提出重大问题能推动创新与进步。)”符合原文内容。 第三部分：书面表达（共两节，32分） 第一节（共4小题；第45、46题各2分，第47题3分，第48题5分， 共12分） 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。请在答题卡指定区域作答。 Fast fashion has made it easy for consumers to purchase new clothing frequently and at low cost. But today many people are now seeking something better: clothes that last, are made with intention, and carry real meaning. This is why craftsmanship is coming back. One visible expression of this shift is the renewed interest in repairing garments. From patching worn spots to adding personal embroidery (刺绣), people are doing it for fun or making their own style. With visible mending, they are not hiding the damage, but showing the story. This hands-on engagement fosters a deeper connection between individuals and their clothing. People no longer just want to wear clothes — they want to be part of them. The appreciation for craftsmanship is not limited to personal practices, but extends to a broader cultural reevaluation of fashion traditions. Techniques and styles once dismissed as outdated are now increasingly valued for their detail, history, and authenticity. In contrast to the uniformity promoted by fast fashion, many consumers are turning toward garments that carry culture, family stories, and time-honored skills. You see them in handmade jackets and detailed weaving. Sustainability is another major driver of the revival. Fast fashion generates enormous waste and environmental harm, while handcrafted pieces frequently use natural and recycled materials. Many are made to order, eliminating excess production, and most can be repaired and passed down rather than thrown away. Choosing handmade is gentler on the planet and better to the people making the clothes. While big retailers still push out the most clothes, smaller brands are changing the game — not by volume, but by values. They focus on quality over quantity, working with skilled local makers and using materials that last. To avoid waste, many of them slow down production, skip the constant trend-chasing, and even offer pre-orders, which is gaining popularity for letting people wear something real. In a world full of quick, disposable goods, the comeback of craftsmanship represents not a passing trend, but a fundamental shift toward meaning, responsibility, and lasting value in fashion. 45.

(但如今许多人正在寻找更好的东西：耐穿的、用心制作的、承载真正意义的衣服。)”以及第三段中“In contrast to the uniformity promoted by fast fashion, many consumers are turning toward garments that carry culture, family stories, and time-honored skills. (与快时尚推崇的千篇一律不同，如今许多消费者转而选择承载文化底蕴、家族故事与传统精湛工艺的服饰。)”可知，如今许多人正在寻找耐穿、用心制作且具有真正意义的衣服，或者寻找承载文化、家庭故事和传统技艺的服装。 【46题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“The appreciation for craftsmanship is not limited to personal practices, but extends to a broader cultural reevaluation of fashion traditions. (对手工艺的欣赏不仅限于个人实践，还扩展到对时尚传统的更广泛的文化重新评估。)”以及第四段中“Sustainability is another major driver of the revival. (可持续性是这一复兴的另一个主要驱动因素。)”可知，除了个人兴趣，更广泛的文化重新评估和可持续性也是促进手工艺回归的因素。 【47题详解】 考查细节理解。句意：许多小型时尚品牌放慢生产速度，甚至提供预订服务是为了获得人气。根据第四段中“To avoid waste, many of them slow down production, skip the constant trend-chasing, and even offer pre-orders, which is gaining popularity for letting people wear something real. (为了避免浪费，它们中的许多品牌放慢了生产速度，不再盲目追逐潮流，甚至提供预订服务——这种做法正越来越受欢迎，因为它让人们能够穿上真正有意义的衣物。)”可知，小型品牌这样做的主要目的是为了避免浪费，而不是为了获得人气。因此原句中的“to gain popularity”是错误的，应改为“to avoid waste”。 【48题详解】 开放性题目。此题要求提出除时尚领域外在其他领域应用手工艺的方案，答案不唯一，合理即可。例如，我会将手工艺应用于家居装饰中。我会选用竹子、石头等天然材料，然后运用手工雕刻和编织技艺制作独特的装饰品，为家增添一份自然与艺术的气息。 第二节 （20分） 49. 假设你是红星中学高三学生李华。世卫组织(WHO)面向全球青少年发起以“携手同行，共护健康”(Together for Well-Being)为主题的倡议征集活动。你的外国好友Jim打算参加，为此发来邮件，就倡议内容询问你的建议。请你用英文给他回复，内容包括： 1．提出的建议； 2．建议的理由。 注意：1．词数100左右； 2．开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, I’m glad to hear you’re joining the WHO’s initiative.
