Travel magazines like Conde Nast Traveler and Booking.com, one of the largest online travel agencies, have offered their predictions for travel trends. Noctourism The trend of noctourism refers to traveling to fully enjoy the beauty of the night, according to Booking.com.It sees tourists searching for dark-sky areas to appreciate the solar system and take part in activities such as stargazing (观星). As global temperatures continue to rise and daytime heat, especially in summer, becomes uncomfortable for many, people will often plan their trips around destinations that offer activities in cooler evenings and early mornings. While most activities center around the night sky, others happen on the ground, from city tours at night to full moon picnics by the sea. “Noctourism is set to transform travel in 2025 as night owl (夜猫子) travelers are increasingly seeking unique after-dark experiences,” Jay Stevens, CEO of travel company Wayfairer Travel,told CNBC. Passports to immortality While achieving “immortality” (永生) might seem unrealistic, our interest in living longer and staying healthy shows no sign of slowing down. Data from Booking.com reveals that health-focused trips will take center stage in 2025, with tourists seeking experiences designed to improve their health. These experiences include red light therapy and cryotherapy (冷冻疗法), offering travelers long-term benefits beyond immediate pleasure. As research indicates that staying socially active and spending time outdoors can significantly boost health, many travel destinations have introduced health-focused activities such as group hikes. In the future, travel will become more flexible as we begin to view our health as the ultimate journey, Booking.com predicted. Detour destinations Getting a little lost on purpose, driving down an unknown road and finding a lovely shop along the way — detours (绕道) have always been part of the travel experience. Simply going from Point A to Point B can feel a bit boring. Detour travel focuses on discovering smaller, less popular places close to the main sights and spending time there. For example, the city of Reims (兰斯) is a popular detour from Paris, as is Santa Barbara (圣巴巴拉) from Los Angeles. “In Europe, rail travel is the easiest way to do this — once you start looking at train timetables,it’s too tempting not to add an extra stop,” Tom Barber, co-founder of the travel company Original Travel, told Conde Nast Traveler. 36. Why may Noctourism become more popular in 2025? A. Because tourists are becoming more accustomed to the dark at night. B. Because travel agencies offer more promotions for activities at night. C. Because astronomy such as stargazing is drawing global attention. D. Because it offers agreeable temperatures and special experiences. 37. What is the primary focus of the section “Detour destinations”? A. The recommendation of visiting less-popular sights. B. The risks of getting lost while in suburban areas. C. The popularity of traveling in large crowded cities. D. The necessity of booking train tickets early. 38. What will people gain from health-focused trips? A. Mastery over several therapies. B. Cooperation from outdoor activities. C. Benefits of health in the long run. D. Flexibility in social relationships. 39. How does the author make the predictions of travel trends convincing? A. By sharing travel experiences of famous people. B. By analyzing cause-effect and data from websites. C. By comparing travel trends in history with future ones. D. By including names of well-known tourist attractions. 【答案】36. D 37. A 38. C 39. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了2025年的三大旅游趋势，包括夜间旅游、以健康为重点的旅行和绕道旅行，并详细阐述了每种趋势的特点和原因。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“As global temperatures continue to rise and daytime heat, especially in summer, becomes uncomfortable for many, people will often plan their trips around destinations that offer activities in cooler evenings and early mornings. While most activities center around the night sky, others happen on the ground, from city tours at night to full moon picnics by the sea. (随着全球气温持续上升，白天的炎热，尤其是在夏季，让许多人感到不适，人们通常会围绕在凉爽的夜晚和清晨提供活动的目的地来计划他们的旅行。虽然大多数活动都围绕夜空展开，但也有一些活动是在地面上进行的，比如夜间城市游和海边满月野餐)”可知，夜间旅游在2025年可能会更受欢迎，是因为它提供了宜人的温度和特殊的体验。故选D。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Detour travel focuses on discovering smaller, less popular places close to the main sights and spending time there. For example, the city of Reims is a popular detour from Paris, as is Santa Barbara from Los Angeles. (绕道旅行注重发现靠近主要景点的小型、不太受欢迎的地方，并在那里度过一段时间。例如，兰斯市是从巴黎出发的热门绕道目的地，圣巴巴拉则是从洛杉矶出发的热门绕道目的地)”可知，“绕道目的地”这一部分主要介绍了不太受欢迎的景点的推荐。故选A。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Data from Booking.com reveals that health-focused trips will take center stage in 2025, with tourists seeking experiences designed to improve their health. These experiences include red light therapy and cryotherapy, offering travelers long-term benefits beyond immediate pleasure. (Booking.com的数据显示，以健康为重点的旅行将在2025年成为焦点，游客们寻求旨在改善健康的体验。这些体验包括红光疗法和冷冻疗法，为旅行者提供超越即时愉悦的长期益处)”可知，人们从以健康为重点的旅行中可以获得长期健康益处。故选C。 【39题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“The trend of noctourism refers to traveling to fully enjoy the beauty of the night, according to Booking.com. It sees tourists searching for dark-sky areas to appreciate the solar system and take part in activities such as stargazing. As global temperatures continue to rise and daytime heat, especially in summer, becomes uncomfortable for many, people will often plan their trips around destinations that offer activities in cooler evenings and early mornings. (根据Booking.com的说法，夜间旅游趋势指的是为了充分欣赏夜晚之美而进行的旅行。它看到游客们寻找黑暗的天空区域来欣赏太阳系，并参加观星等活动。随着全球气温持续上升，白天的炎热，尤其是在夏季，让许多人感到不适，人们通常会围绕在凉爽的夜晚和清晨提供活动的目的地来计划他们的旅行)”和第三段“While achieving “immortality” might seem unrealistic, our interest in living longer and staying healthy shows no sign of slowing down. Data from Booking.com reveals that health-focused trips will take center stage in 2025, with tourists seeking experiences designed to improve their health. (虽然实现“永生”似乎不切实际，但我们对长寿和保持健康的兴趣并没有减弱的迹象。Booking.com的数据显示，以健康为重点的旅行将在2025年成为焦点，游客们寻求旨在改善健康的体验)”可知，作者通过分析因果关系和网站数据，使得旅游趋势的预测令人信服。故选B。 B Chinese architect Liu Jiakun, 68, was awarded the 2025 Pritzker Architecture Prize on March 4, becoming the second winner from China to receive the highest honor in the field of architecture. Based in Chengdu, Liu’s career covers four decades and more than 30 projects. He founded Jiakun Architects in 1999 and has built a diverse body of work, ranging from small, beautifully designed museums and monuments to large commercial buildings and master plans for cities. Rather than following a distinct style, Liu’s projects include local elements and rely on “low-tech” simplicity to achieve beauty, The Spaces reported. “He has developed a strategy that never relies on a fixed method but rather on evaluating the specific characteristics and requirements of each project differently,” the jury (评审团) said in its citation announcing the award. One of Liu’s most well-known projects was the so-called “rebirth bricks” he created after the terrible Wenchuan earthquake in 2008. To aid in reconstruction, Liu made bricks using local wheat fiber, cement (水泥) and rubble (瓦砾) from collapsed buildings. More than just recycling, these bricks were “a poetic metaphor” for the rebirth of the material and “the spiritual rebirth of the community at a time of national mourning”, reported The Guardian. These bricks were later used in several of his projects, including the Shuijingfang Museum in Chengdu and the Novartis pharmaceutical (制药) company in Shanghai. Liu’s design also focuses on ordinary people. This is reflected in his largest project, West Village, a five-story urban complex completed in 2015 in Chengdu. The complex includes a soccer field, a market, and pathways (通道) for cyclists and pedestrians (行人). With grass growing through holes in the bricks, the project celebrates “the vitality of ‘everydayness’,” wrote critic Austin Williams in 2017. It has become a popular destination for city residents to spend their leisure time. “The purpose of architecture is to create a beautiful, just and dignified (有尊严的) living environment. People’s real lives, happiness and dignity are what we pursue,” Liu told China Daily. 40. Why did Liu Jiakun win the Pritzker Architecture Prize according to the jury? A. He consistently applied high-tech methods to create elegant designs. B. He developed a unique strategy that adapts to each project’s specific needs. C. He focused primarily on large commercial buildings to boost the urban economy. D. He was the first Chinese architect to receive international recognition. 41. How does Liu Jiakun incorporate local elements into his architecture to achieve beauty? A. By using advanced technology to modernize traditional materials. B. By emphasizing simplicity and low-tech solutions with cultural features. C. By designing only monuments and museums to preserve heritage. D. By combining Western styles with Chinese motifs for global appeal. 42. Which of the following statements about the“rebirth bricks” is NOT true? A. They were created by using rubble from buildings destroyed in the Wenchuan earthquake. B. They symbolized both material recycling and spiritual renewal for the community. C. They were only used in Chengdu-based projects like the Shuijingfang Museum. D. They represented a response to the disaster and a metaphor for rebirth. 43. What does Liu’s West Village project highlight? A. The beauty of natural landscapes. B. The energy of residents’ daily lives. C. The influence of Western architecture. D. The importance of eco-friendly materials. 44. What is Liu’s ultimate goal in architecture? A. To contribute to a city’s economic growth. B. To design buildings with global appeal. C. To improve people’s quality of life. D. To create artistic and symbolic landmarks. 【答案】40. B 41. B 42. C 43. B 44. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了中国建筑师刘家琨获2025年普利兹克奖，介绍其设计理念是因地制宜，融入本土元素与低技术美学，并通过“再生砖”和“西村大院”项目体现对社会关怀与日常生活活力的关注。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中““He has developed a strategy that never relies on a fixed method but rather on evaluating the specific characteristics and requirements of each project differently,” the jury (评审团) said in its citation announcing the award. (评委会在颁奖词中表示：“他发展了一种策略，从不依赖固定方法，而是根据不同项目的具体特点和需求进行评估。”)”可知，评委会颁给刘家琨该奖项的原因是他开创了一种独特的策略，适应每个项目的具体需求。故选B项。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Rather than following a distinct style, Liu’s projects include local elements and rely on “low-tech” simplicity to achieve beauty, The Spaces reported. (The Spaces报道称，“刘的作品不拘泥于特定风格，而是融入本土元素，依靠‘低技术’的简洁性实现美感。”)”可知，刘家琨通过强调具有文化特色的简约设计和低技术解决方案做到这一点。故选B项。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“To aid in reconstruction, Liu made bricks using local wheat fiber, cement (水泥) and rubble (瓦砾) from collapsed buildings. More than just recycling, these bricks were “a poetic metaphor” for the rebirth of the material and “the spiritual rebirth of the community at a time of national mourning”, reported The Guardian. These bricks were later used in several of his projects, including the Shuijingfang Museum in Chengdu and the Novartis pharmaceutical (制药) company in Shanghai. (为了帮助灾后重建，刘家琨就地取材，用小麦纤维、水泥和倒塌建筑的瓦砾制成特殊砖块。英国《卫报》评价称，这些“再生砖”不仅是环保材料，更是“充满诗意的隐喻”——既象征物质的重生，也承载着国殇时刻社区精神的重塑。这些砖块后来被广泛应用于他的多个项目中，包括成都水井坊博物馆和上海诺华制药公司总部)”可知，砖块还被用于上海的项目，非仅限于成都。故选C项。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段中“With grass growing through holes in the bricks, the project celebrates “the vitality of ‘everydayness’,” wrote critic Austin Williams in 2017. (砖缝间青草蔓生，这个项目颂扬着“日常生活的蓬勃生命力”，评论家Austin Williams在2017年如此写道)”可知，西村大院项目彰显了居民日常生活的蓬勃活力。故选B项。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““The purpose of architecture is to create a beautiful, just and dignified (有尊严的) living environment. People’s real lives, happiness and dignity are what we pursue,” Liu told China Daily. (刘对《中国日报》表示：“建筑的目的是创造美好、公正且有尊严的生活环境。我们追求的是人们的真实生活、幸福和尊严。”)”可知，刘家琨在建筑上的最终目标是提高人们的生活质量。故选C项。 C If your job involves sitting in front of a screen all day, there’s a good chance your eyes are paying the price. After hours of emails, video calls, and spreadsheets, you may be left with symptoms like a headache, dry or uncomfortable eyes, and blurry vision. “It’s an occupational hazard in a digital society,” says Dr. Douglas Wisner at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia. Amy Watts from Massachusetts Eye and Ear hospital explains there are two main reasons for this. First, you blink much less than normal when you’ re focusing on a screen, which dries out the eyes. “Your eyelids are like your windshield wipers on your car. They’ re making sure that the surface is smooth and clear,” she says. “When you’ re not blinking as much, it’s as if raindrops are accumulating on your windshield, making it harder to see.” Second, our eye muscles get tired from focusing on a fixed point for hours. These tired muscles can cause temporarily blurred vision and other symptoms. To combat this, taking visual breaks is crucial. The 20/20/20 rule — looking20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes — is often suggested. However, recent research indicates that longer breaks, like five minutes every hour, might be more effective. Watts also advises that short breaks are a good time to stretch and move, benefiting overall health. Eye drops can also help counter the dryness that comes from reduced blinking. You can use eye drops to treat symptoms you’ re already experiencing, but they work best when used preventively. As for blue-light blocking glasses, Steven Reed from the American Optometric Association (美国验光协会) says they don’t hurt, but there’s little data supporting their effectiveness against eye strain. However, limiting screen time before bed is advisable, as night-time device use can disrupt sleep, contributing to fatigue and strain. Reed also notes that persistent eye strain can signal underlying vision issues, so consult an eye professional if symptoms persist despite breaks and eye drops. In addition to taking breaks, adjusting your workspace can also help reduce eye strain. Ensure your screen is at a proper distance, about an arm’s length away, and positioned so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye level. Reducing screen glare by using curtains or adjustable lights can also minimize eye discomfort. 45. Which of the following does not belong to symptoms of eye issues according to Paragraph 1? A. Headache. B. Eye discomfort. C. Blurred vision. D. More blinking. 46. How does Doctor Amy Watts explain the reasons in Paragraph 2? A. By providing a technical definition. B. By presenting a counter-argument. C. By using similes to explain concepts. D. By listing data as supporting evidence. 47. What is the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. Ease. B. Calculate. C. Relax. D. Extend. 48. Which of the following is NOT a suggestion given by Steven Reed? A. Reduce night-device use before going to bed. B. Consult eye doctors for continual symptoms. C. Use curtains or adjust lights to avoid screen glare. D. Wear blue-light blocking glasses all day and night. 49. What is the purpose of quoting the experts such as Dr. Douglas Wisner, Amy Watts and Steven Reed? A. To make the passage longer and more complex. B. To add various individual opinions to the topic. C. To lend credibility and authority to the information. D. To advertise specific hospitals and associations. 50. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The development of eye care systems in the USA. B. Causes of eye issues and possible solutions. C. The benefits of blue-light blocking glasses. D. Impacts of smart devices on eye issues. 【答案】45. D 46. C 47. A 48. D 49. C 50. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了长时间使用电子设备对眼睛造成的伤害及其原因，并提供了一些缓解方法和建议 【45题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中的句子“After hours of emails, video calls, and spreadsheets, you may be left with symptoms like a headache, dry or uncomfortable eyes, and blurry vision. (几个小时的电子邮件、视频通话和电子表格后，你可能会出现头痛、眼睛干涩或不舒服、视力模糊等症状。)”可知，眼睛问题的症状包括头痛、眼睛干涩或不适以及视力模糊。而“更多眨眼”（More blinking）与这些症状不符。故选D项。 【46题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段中的句子““Your eyelids are like your windshield wipers on your car. They’ re making sure that the surface is smooth and clear,” she says. “When you’ re not blinking as much, it’s as if raindrops are accumulating on your windshield, making it harder to see.” (“你的眼皮就像汽车挡风玻璃上的雨刷。他们要确保表面光滑干净，”她说。“当你不经常眨眼时，就好像雨滴在你的挡风玻璃上积聚，让你更难看清。”)”可知，Amy Watts使用了类比来帮助理解。故选C项。 【47题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词下文的“Eye drops (眼药水)”和下文的“the dryness that comes from reduced blinking (眨眼减少导致的干涩)”可知，眼药水的作用肯定是帮助缓解眼睛干涩，所以划线单词counter的意义为“抵消；缓解”，与ease意义相近。故选A项。 【48题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“As for blue-light blocking glasses, Steven Reed from the American Optometric Association (美国验光协会) says they don’t hurt, but there’s little data supporting their effectiveness against eye strain. However, limiting screen time before bed is advisable, as night-time device use can disrupt sleep, contributing to fatigue and strain. Reed also notes that persistent eye strain can signal underlying vision issues, so consult an eye professional if symptoms persist despite breaks and eye drops. In addition to taking breaks, adjusting your workspace can also help reduce eye strain. Ensure your screen is at a proper distance, about an arm’s length away, and positioned so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye level. Reducing screen glare by using curtains or adjustable lights can also minimize eye discomfort. (至于防蓝光眼镜，美国验光协会的史蒂文·里德表示，它们不会造成伤害，但几乎没有数据表明其对缓解眼疲劳有效。不过，睡前限制使用电子设备是有益的，因为夜间使用设备会扰乱睡眠，导致疲劳和眼疲劳。里德还指出，持续的眼疲劳可能预示着潜在的视力问题，所以如果症状持续存在，即便休息和使用眼药水也无法缓解，应咨询眼科医生。除了休息之外，调整工作环境也能帮助减轻眼疲劳。确保屏幕距离适当，大约一臂远，并且屏幕顶部应与眼睛平齐或略低。使用窗帘或可调节的灯光减少屏幕反光，也能减轻眼睛不适。)”可知，Steven Reed并没有建议全天候佩戴蓝光阻隔眼镜。故选D项。 【49题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段的句子““It’s an occupational hazard in a digital society,” says Dr. Douglas Wisner at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia. (费城威尔斯眼科医院的Douglas Wisner医生说：“这是数字社会的一种职业危害。”)”，第二段的句子“Amy Watts from Massachusetts Eye and Ear hospital explains there are two main reasons for this. (马萨诸塞州眼耳医院的Amy Watts解释说，这主要有两个原因。)”和最后一段的句子“As for blue-light blocking glasses, Steven Reed from the American Optometric Association (美国验光协会) says they don’t hurt, but there’s little data supporting their effectiveness against eye strain. (至于防蓝光眼镜，美国验光协会的Steven Reed说，这种眼镜不会造成伤害，但很少有数据支持它对眼睛疲劳的有效性。)”可知，引用这些专家的观点是为了增加文章的可信度和权威性，使读者更信服文章中关于眼睛问题及其解决方案的讨论。故选C项。 【50题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章的整体内容，特别是第一段的句子“If your job involves sitting in front of a screen all day, there’s a good chance your eyes are paying the price. After hours of emails, video calls, and spreadsheets, you may be left with symptoms like a headache, dry or uncomfortable eyes, and blurry vision. (如果你的工作需要整天坐在屏幕前，你的眼睛很有可能会为此付出代价。几个小时的电子邮件、视频通话和电子表格后，你可能会出现头痛、眼睛干涩或不舒服、视力模糊等症状。)”可知，文章主要讨论了长时间使用电子设备导致的眼睛问题及其原因，并提供了一些解决方案，如视觉休息、使用眼药水等。故选B项。 D Science serves as a powerful tool for unlocking the mysteries of the universe, but understanding its limitations is essential for its effective application. There are occasions where I have used the handle of a knife as a hammer (锤子), but the result would have been better if I’d had a more suitable tool at hand. As far as science goes, it is really good at testing things that are testable, but not so for those that are not. We can do, and have done, an impressive amount with our brains. But there are limits. Sometimes these limits go away if we keep at it for long enough — we just need better facilities and experiments to get the answer. Breaking new ground in modern science this way can be costly. Next-generation supercomputers or incredibly large telescopes are expensive, yet these may be required to find answers to some of the unsolved mysteries of the universe. Sometimes the limits we encounter in trying to unlock the nature of the universe are cognitive (认知的). Think about this: human DNA is only about 1.2 percent different from that of chimps (黑猩猩). Chimps are smart, no question. But could you teach them advanced mathematics? What if our DNA were another 1.2 percent further evolved than it is? What might our brains be capable of then? The level of abstract thinking might be unimaginable. Sometimes the limits we hit are fundamental. There are laws of nature we may never be able to understand, however advanced our brains might become. There are experiments we might never be able to perform. We may never be able to test what caused the universe to be created, and what caused the cause of the universe being created. This is where science may never break through. For something to be considered scientific, it must, by definition, be testable. There is a problem here: it may not need to be testable right now, but it must be testable at some point in the future by experiment. If an idea is untestable, that doesn’t mean it is wrong. It means it is untestable for now. These untestable ideas also happen to be some of the most interesting ones, probably because they’ve puzzled humanity for centuries. 51. Why does the author mention “knife” and “hammer” in Paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate how tools can be used creatively. B. To highlight consequences of using a wrong tool. C. To show the necessity of keeping a handy tool within reach. D. To stress the need for the right tool to achieve desired results. 52. What is often required in breaking new ground in science? A. Broader science education. B. More advanced facilities for experiments. C. Deeper understanding of the brain power. D. More investment in next-generation scientists. 53. How does the author assess human beings in terms of their cognitive capacity? A. They are just 2.4% away from true abstract thinking. B. They are slightly smarter than other intelligent beings. C. They are yet to evolve further to learn more about the universe. D. They are good at solving problems with advanced mathematics. 54. What message does Paragraph 4 convey? A. Some puzzles about the universe are way beyond scientific exploration. B. Experimental research lays solid foundations for space technology. C. Boundaries of science can be pushed back with determined efforts. D. Limitations of science may result from insufficient testing. 55. What has the author added to the definition of a scientific idea? A. Correct ideas are testable. B. Untestable ideas can be true. C. Some scientific ideas may never be testable. D. An idea must be testable to be seen as correct. 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. C 54. A 55. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章指出科学是探索宇宙的有力工具，但存在局限，包括需先进设备、人类认知待进化、有根本性难题难突破，还补充不可测试的想法未必错误。 【51题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Science serves as a powerful tool for unlocking the mysteries of the universe, but understanding its limitations is essential for its effective application. There are occasions where I have used the handle of a knife as a hammer (锤子), but the result would have been better if I’d had a more suitable tool at hand. As far as science goes, it is really good at testing things that are testable, but not so for those that are not. (科学是解开宇宙奥秘的有力工具，但了解其局限性对于其有效应用至关重要。有时我会把刀柄当作锤子来使用，但要是手边有更合适的工具就好了。就科学而言，它在能进行测试的事物上表现得非常出色，但对于那些无法测试的事物则不然。)”可知，作者在第一段中提及“刀”和“锤子”是为了强调使用合适的工具以达到预期效果的重要性。故选D。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“We can do, and have done, an impressive amount with our brains. But there are limits. Sometimes these limits go away if we keep at it for long enough — we just need better facilities and experiments to get the answer. Breaking new ground in modern science this way can be costly. Next-generation supercomputers or incredibly large telescopes are expensive, yet these may be required to find answers to some of the unsolved mysteries of the universe. (我们的大脑能够完成并且已经完成了大量的工作。但也有其局限性。有时，如果我们持续努力足够长的时间，这些局限性就会消失——我们只是需要更先进的设备和实验来得出答案。以这种方式在现代科学领域开辟新领域可能会耗费大量资源。下一代超级计算机或极其巨大的望远镜价格不菲，但这些可能是解决宇宙中一些未解之谜所必需的。)”可知，在科学领域开拓新领域时，通常需要更先进的实验设备。故选B。 【53题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“What if our DNA were another 1.2 percent further evolved than it is? What might our brains be capable of then? The level of abstract thinking might be unimaginable. (倘若我们的DNA进化程度再提高1.2%呢？那我们的大脑又会具备怎样的能力呢？抽象思维的水平或许会令人难以想象。)”可知，作者认为人类的认知能力尚未进一步进化以更好地了解宇宙。故选C。 【54题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“Sometimes the limits we hit are fundamental. There are laws of nature we may never be able to understand, however advanced our brains might become. There are experiments we might never be able to perform. We may never be able to test what caused the universe to be created, and what caused the cause of the universe being created. This is where science may never break through. (有时我们所遭遇的限制是根本性的。存在着一些自然法则，即便我们的大脑变得再先进，我们也可能永远无法理解。还有一些实验我们可能永远无法进行。我们或许永远无法验证是什么导致了宇宙的诞生，以及是什么导致了宇宙诞生的原因。这就是科学可能永远无法取得突破的地方。)”可知，第4段传达了有些关于宇宙的谜题远远超出了科学探索的范畴。故选A。 【55题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“If an idea is untestable, that doesn’t mean it is wrong. It means it is untestable for now. These untestable ideas also happen to be some of the most interesting ones, probably because they’ve puzzled humanity for centuries. (如果一个想法无法进行验证，这并不意味着它就是错误的。这意味着目前它还无法被验证。而这些无法验证的想法恰恰往往是最具趣味性的，可能是因为它们已经困扰人类数百年之久。)”可知，作者认为不可测试的想法也可能是正确的。故选B。 第Ⅱ卷 第三部分：写作 第一节：(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong’s moon landing on the Apollo 11 mission, marked by his iconic words, made space travel seem more within reach. Despite the mission being guided by a relatively weak computer compared to modern ones, all astronauts returned safely. This remarkable event gradually acclimated the public to space adventures. By the 1980s, the space shuttle replaced the traditional rockets in the American space program. The 1986 launch of the Challenger was particularly special as Christa McAuliffe, a 37-year-old teacher, was set to be the first civilian in space. With plans to conduct two lessons from orbit to inspire students, her journey was closely watched by millions. However, tragedy struck. Just over a minute after take-off in Florida, the Challenger exploded, killing all seven crew members. This was a huge shock, as most people had underestimated the risks. A student’s vivid recollection of watching the launch, seeing the explosion, and the ensuing screams, captures the public’s horror. In the aftermath, space shuttle flights were suspended for nearly three years. During this time, the cause of the disaster was investigated, and components were redesigned. But the spirit of manned space exploration remained unbroken. In 1988, the space shuttle program resumed with the successful launch of Discovery. Even over 30 years after the Challenger disaster, the memory of the crew lives on. Their sacrifice is remembered alongside other space heroes, inspiring future generations to continue the pursuit of space exploration, whatever the challenges. 56. Why was the 1986 launch of the Challenger space shuttle special? (No more than 15 words) __________________________________________________________________________ 57. What can we learn about the public from their reaction to the Challenger disaster? (No more than 10 words) __________________________________________________________________________ 58. What does the underlined word “recollection” in Paragraph 3 probably mean? (No more than 1 words) __________________________________________________________________________ 59. What happened to the American space shuttle program after the Challenger disaster? (No more than 10 words) __________________________________________________________________________ 60. What lesson do you think we can learn from the tragedy of the Challenger? (No more than 20 words) __________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Because Christa McAuliffe / a teacher would be /was the first civilian in space. 57. They underestimated the risks of space travel. 58. Memory. 59. It was suspended for nearly three years, then resumed. 60. We should never underestimate risks in scientific exploration. 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了美国航天史上挑战者号航天飞机的发射背景、1986年爆炸事故的经过、公众反应、项目暂停与复飞，以及这一悲剧对后世的启示，展现了人类航天探索中风险与勇气并存的历程。 【56题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“The 1986 launch of the Challenger was particularly special as Christa McAuliffe, a 37-year-old teacher, was set to be the first civilian in space.(1986年挑战者号的发射特别引人注目，因为37岁的教师克里斯塔·麦考利夫将成为首位进入太空的平民)”可知，此次发射的特殊之处在于一位教师即将成为首位平民宇航员。 【57题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段“This was a huge shock, as most people had underestimated the risks. (这是一个巨大的冲击，因为大多数人此前低估了风险)”可推知，公众对挑战者号灾难的反应表明他们低估了太空旅行的危险性。 【58题详解】 考查词句猜测。根据划线词所在句“A student’s vivid recollection of watching the launch, seeing the explosion, and the ensuing screams, captures the public’s horror. (一名学生对观看发射、目睹爆炸以及随后尖叫声的生动recollection，捕捉到了公众的恐惧)”可知，划线词recollection指学生对过去所见情景的“记忆或回忆”。 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第四段“In the aftermath, space shuttle flights were suspended for nearly three years.(事故发生后，航天飞机飞行暂停了近三年)”及“In 1988, the space shuttle program resumed with the successful launch of Discovery.(1988年，航天飞机项目得以恢复，随后“发现号”成功发射升空)”可知，美国航天飞机项目在事故后暂停近三年，随后恢复。 【60题详解】 考查推理判断。根据第三段“This was a huge shock, as most people had underestimated the risks.(这实在是一个巨大的打击，因为大多数人此前都低估了这些风险)”以及全文对事故教训的总结可推知，挑战者号的悲剧告诉我们：在科学探索中绝不能低估潜在风险，同时人类追求太空探索的精神不应因挫折而中断。 第二节：书面表达(满分25分) 61. 在2026年中国中央电视台春节联欢晚会时，一场由智能机器人完成的武术表演引发全球关注，许多海外网友赞叹中国科技的飞速发展。假设你是晨光中学的李津。你的英国朋友Chris对此十分感兴趣，来信询问你对智能机器人未来应用的看法。请你给Chris回复一封邮件。 内容提示如下， （1）简要介绍春晚机器人表演带来的影响； （2）谈谈你认为机器人未来可能在哪些领域发挥作用（如医疗、教育等）； （3）表达你对机器人发展的态度。 注意： （1）词数不少于100； （2）可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 参考词汇：春节联欢晚会Spring Festival Gala 智能机器人intelligent robot 武术表演martial arts performance Dear Chris, __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best wishes, Li Jin 【答案】例文 Dear Chris, I’m glad to hear that you’re interested in the robot performance at this year’s Spring Festival Gala.

Travel magazines like Conde Nast Traveler and Booking.com, one of the largest online travel agencies, have offered their predictions for travel trends. Noctourism The trend of noctourism refers to traveling to fully enjoy the beauty of the night, according to Booking.com.It sees tourists searching for dark-sky areas to appreciate the solar system and take part in activities such as stargazing (观星). As global temperatures continue to rise and daytime heat, especially in summer, becomes uncomfortable for many, people will often plan their trips around destinations that offer activities in cooler evenings and early mornings. While most activities center around the night sky, others happen on the ground, from city tours at night to full moon picnics by the sea. “Noctourism is set to transform travel in 2025 as night owl (夜猫子) travelers are increasingly seeking unique after-dark experiences,” Jay Stevens, CEO of travel company Wayfairer Travel,told CNBC. Passports to immortality While achieving “immortality” (永生) might seem unrealistic, our interest in living longer and staying healthy shows no sign of slowing down. Data from Booking.com reveals that health-focused trips will take center stage in 2025, with tourists seeking experiences designed to improve their health. These experiences include red light therapy and cryotherapy (冷冻疗法), offering travelers long-term benefits beyond immediate pleasure. As research indicates that staying socially active and spending time outdoors can significantly boost health, many travel destinations have introduced health-focused activities such as group hikes. In the future, travel will become more flexible as we begin to view our health as the ultimate journey, Booking.com predicted. Detour destinations Getting a little lost on purpose, driving down an unknown road and finding a lovely shop along the way — detours (绕道) have always been part of the travel experience. Simply going from Point A to Point B can feel a bit boring. Detour travel focuses on discovering smaller, less popular places close to the main sights and spending time there. For example, the city of Reims (兰斯) is a popular detour from Paris, as is Santa Barbara (圣巴巴拉) from Los Angeles. “In Europe, rail travel is the easiest way to do this — once you start looking at train timetables,it’s too tempting not to add an extra stop,” Tom Barber, co-founder of the travel company Original Travel, told Conde Nast Traveler. 36. Why may Noctourism become more popular in 2025? A. Because tourists are becoming more accustomed to the dark at night. B. Because travel agencies offer more promotions for activities at night. C. Because astronomy such as stargazing is drawing global attention. D. Because it offers agreeable temperatures and special experiences. 37. What is the primary focus of the section “Detour destinations”? A. The recommendation of visiting less-popular sights. B. The risks of getting lost while in suburban areas. C. The popularity of traveling in large crowded cities. D. The necessity of booking train tickets early. 38. What will people gain from health-focused trips? A. Mastery over several therapies. B. Cooperation from outdoor activities. C. Benefits of health in the long run. D. Flexibility in social relationships. 39. How does the author make the predictions of travel trends convincing? A. By sharing travel experiences of famous people. B. By analyzing cause-effect and data from websites. C. By comparing travel trends in history with future ones. D. By including names of well-known tourist attractions. B Chinese architect Liu Jiakun, 68, was awarded the 2025 Pritzker Architecture Prize on March 4, becoming the second winner from China to receive the highest honor in the field of architecture. Based in Chengdu, Liu’s career covers four decades and more than 30 projects. He founded Jiakun Architects in 1999 and has built a diverse body of work, ranging from small, beautifully designed museums and monuments to large commercial buildings and master plans for cities. Rather than following a distinct style, Liu’s projects include local elements and rely on “low-tech” simplicity to achieve beauty, The Spaces reported. “He has developed a strategy that never relies on a fixed method but rather on evaluating the specific characteristics and requirements of each project differently,” the jury (评审团) said in its citation announcing the award. One of Liu’s most well-known projects was the so-called “rebirth bricks” he created after the terrible Wenchuan earthquake in 2008. To aid in reconstruction, Liu made bricks using local wheat fiber, cement (水泥) and rubble (瓦砾) from collapsed buildings. More than just recycling, these bricks were “a poetic metaphor” for the rebirth of the material and “the spiritual rebirth of the community at a time of national mourning”, reported The Guardian. These bricks were later used in several of his projects, including the Shuijingfang Museum in Chengdu and the Novartis pharmaceutical (制药) company in Shanghai. Liu’s design also focuses on ordinary people. This is reflected in his largest project, West Village, a five-story urban complex completed in 2015 in Chengdu. The complex includes a soccer field, a market, and pathways (通道) for cyclists and pedestrians (行人). With grass growing through holes in the bricks, the project celebrates “the vitality of ‘everydayness’,” wrote critic Austin Williams in 2017. It has become a popular destination for city residents to spend their leisure time. “The purpose of architecture is to create a beautiful, just and dignified (有尊严的) living environment. People’s real lives, happiness and dignity are what we pursue,” Liu told China Daily. 40. Why did Liu Jiakun win the Pritzker Architecture Prize according to the jury? A. He consistently applied high-tech methods to create elegant designs. B. He developed a unique strategy that adapts to each project’s specific needs. C. He focused primarily on large commercial buildings to boost the urban economy. D. He was the first Chinese architect to receive international recognition. 41. How does Liu Jiakun incorporate local elements into his architecture to achieve beauty? A. By using advanced technology to modernize traditional materials. B. By emphasizing simplicity and low-tech solutions with cultural features. C. By designing only monuments and museums to preserve heritage. D. By combining Western styles with Chinese motifs for global appeal. 42. Which of the following statements about the“rebirth bricks” is NOT true? A. They were created by using rubble from buildings destroyed in the Wenchuan earthquake. B. They symbolized both material recycling and spiritual renewal for the community. C. They were only used in Chengdu-based projects like the Shuijingfang Museum. D. They represented a response to the disaster and a metaphor for rebirth. 43. What does Liu’s West Village project highlight? A. The beauty of natural landscapes. B. The energy of residents’ daily lives. C. The influence of Western architecture. D. The importance of eco-friendly materials. 44. What is Liu’s ultimate goal in architecture? A. To contribute to a city’s economic growth. B. To design buildings with global appeal. C. To improve people’s quality of life. D. To create artistic and symbolic landmarks. C If your job involves sitting in front of a screen all day, there’s a good chance your eyes are paying the price. After hours of emails, video calls, and spreadsheets, you may be left with symptoms like a headache, dry or uncomfortable eyes, and blurry vision. “It’s an occupational hazard in a digital society,” says Dr. Douglas Wisner at Wills Eye Hospital in Philadelphia. Amy Watts from Massachusetts Eye and Ear hospital explains there are two main reasons for this. First, you blink much less than normal when you’ re focusing on a screen, which dries out the eyes. “Your eyelids are like your windshield wipers on your car. They’ re making sure that the surface is smooth and clear,” she says. “When you’ re not blinking as much, it’s as if raindrops are accumulating on your windshield, making it harder to see.” Second, our eye muscles get tired from focusing on a fixed point for hours. These tired muscles can cause temporarily blurred vision and other symptoms. To combat this, taking visual breaks is crucial. The 20/20/20 rule — looking20 feet away for 20 seconds every 20 minutes — is often suggested. However, recent research indicates that longer breaks, like five minutes every hour, might be more effective. Watts also advises that short breaks are a good time to stretch and move, benefiting overall health. Eye drops can also help counter the dryness that comes from reduced blinking. You can use eye drops to treat symptoms you’ re already experiencing, but they work best when used preventively. As for blue-light blocking glasses, Steven Reed from the American Optometric Association (美国验光协会) says they don’t hurt, but there’s little data supporting their effectiveness against eye strain. However, limiting screen time before bed is advisable, as night-time device use can disrupt sleep, contributing to fatigue and strain. Reed also notes that persistent eye strain can signal underlying vision issues, so consult an eye professional if symptoms persist despite breaks and eye drops. In addition to taking breaks, adjusting your workspace can also help reduce eye strain. Ensure your screen is at a proper distance, about an arm’s length away, and positioned so that the top of the screen is at or slightly below eye level. Reducing screen glare by using curtains or adjustable lights can also minimize eye discomfort. 45. Which of the following does not belong to symptoms of eye issues according to Paragraph 1? A. Headache. B. Eye discomfort. C. Blurred vision. D. More blinking. 46. How does Doctor Amy Watts explain the reasons in Paragraph 2? A. By providing a technical definition. B. By presenting a counter-argument. C. By using similes to explain concepts. D. By listing data as supporting evidence. 47. What is the meaning of the underlined word in Paragraph 3? A. Ease. B. Calculate. C. Relax. D. Extend. 48. Which of the following is NOT a suggestion given by Steven Reed? A. Reduce night-device use before going to bed. B. Consult eye doctors for continual symptoms. C. Use curtains or adjust lights to avoid screen glare. D. Wear blue-light blocking glasses all day and night. 49. What is the purpose of quoting the experts such as Dr. Douglas Wisner, Amy Watts and Steven Reed? A. To make the passage longer and more complex. B. To add various individual opinions to the topic. C. To lend credibility and authority to the information. D. To advertise specific hospitals and associations. 50. What is the main idea of the passage? A. The development of eye care systems in the USA. B. Causes of eye issues and possible solutions. C. The benefits of blue-light blocking glasses. D. Impacts of smart devices on eye issues. D Science serves as a powerful tool for unlocking the mysteries of the universe, but understanding its limitations is essential for its effective application. There are occasions where I have used the handle of a knife as a hammer (锤子), but the result would have been better if I’d had a more suitable tool at hand. As far as science goes, it is really good at testing things that are testable, but not so for those that are not. We can do, and have done, an impressive amount with our brains. But there are limits. Sometimes these limits go away if we keep at it for long enough — we just need better facilities and experiments to get the answer. Breaking new ground in modern science this way can be costly. Next-generation supercomputers or incredibly large telescopes are expensive, yet these may be required to find answers to some of the unsolved mysteries of the universe. Sometimes the limits we encounter in trying to unlock the nature of the universe are cognitive (认知的). Think about this: human DNA is only about 1.2 percent different from that of chimps (黑猩猩). Chimps are smart, no question. But could you teach them advanced mathematics? What if our DNA were another 1.2 percent further evolved than it is? What might our brains be capable of then? The level of abstract thinking might be unimaginable. Sometimes the limits we hit are fundamental. There are laws of nature we may never be able to understand, however advanced our brains might become. There are experiments we might never be able to perform. We may never be able to test what caused the universe to be created, and what caused the cause of the universe being created. This is where science may never break through. For something to be considered scientific, it must, by definition, be testable. There is a problem here: it may not need to be testable right now, but it must be testable at some point in the future by experiment. If an idea is untestable, that doesn’t mean it is wrong. It means it is untestable for now. These untestable ideas also happen to be some of the most interesting ones, probably because they’ve puzzled humanity for centuries. 51. Why does the author mention “knife” and “hammer” in Paragraph 1? A. To demonstrate how tools can be used creatively. B. To highlight consequences of using a wrong tool. C. To show the necessity of keeping a handy tool within reach. D. To stress the need for the right tool to achieve desired results. 52. What is often required in breaking new ground in science? A. Broader science education. B. More advanced facilities for experiments. C. Deeper understanding of the brain power. D. More investment in next-generation scientists. 53. How does the author assess human beings in terms of their cognitive capacity? A. They are just 2.4% away from true abstract thinking. B. They are slightly smarter than other intelligent beings. C. They are yet to evolve further to learn more about the universe. D. They are good at solving problems with advanced mathematics. 54. What message does Paragraph 4 convey? A. Some puzzles about the universe are way beyond scientific exploration. B. Experimental research lays solid foundations for space technology. C. Boundaries of science can be pushed back with determined efforts. D. Limitations of science may result from insufficient testing. 55. What has the author added to the definition of a scientific idea? A. Correct ideas are testable. B. Untestable ideas can be true. C. Some scientific ideas may never be testable. D. An idea must be testable to be seen as correct. 第Ⅱ卷 第三部分：写作 第一节：(共5小题;每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读表达 On July 20, 1969, Neil Armstrong’s moon landing on the Apollo 11 mission, marked by his iconic words, made space travel seem more within reach. Despite the mission being guided by a relatively weak computer compared to modern ones, all astronauts returned safely. This remarkable event gradually acclimated the public to space adventures. By the 1980s, the space shuttle replaced the traditional rockets in the American space program. The 1986 launch of the Challenger was particularly special as Christa McAuliffe, a 37-year-old teacher, was set to be the first civilian in space. With plans to conduct two lessons from orbit to inspire students, her journey was closely watched by millions. However, tragedy struck. Just over a minute after take-off in Florida, the Challenger exploded, killing all seven crew members. This was a huge shock, as most people had underestimated the risks. A student’s vivid recollection of watching the launch, seeing the explosion, and the ensuing screams, captures the public’s horror. In the aftermath, space shuttle flights were suspended for nearly three years. During this time, the cause of the disaster was investigated, and components were redesigned. But the spirit of manned space exploration remained unbroken. In 1988, the space shuttle program resumed with the successful launch of Discovery. Even over 30 years after the Challenger disaster, the memory of the crew lives on. Their sacrifice is remembered alongside other space heroes, inspiring future generations to continue the pursuit of space exploration, whatever the challenges. 56.
