It’s no wonder that the first school day of my senior high school was so impressive. When I woke up in the morning, there was only one thing on my mind: what to wear. A billion thoughts appeared through my brain. Not only was it my first day of high school, but it was my first day of school in a new state; the first impression is everything, and it was important for me to impress the people who I would spend the next three years with.
After carefully searching my closet, I proudly came out in a dress from Target. The soft cotton was comfortable, and the specially designed shoulders added a little fun. Yes, this dress was the one. An hour later, I felt powerful as I headed toward Room 1136. But as I entered class, my jaw dropped to the floor.
Sitting at her desk was Mrs Hutfilz, my English teacher, wearing exactly the same dress as me. I kept my head down and tiptoed (踮着脚走) to my seat. I made it through my simple introduction speech until Mrs Hutfilz stood up, jokingly saying that she liked my style. Although this was the moment I had been afraid of from the moment I walked in, all my anxiety surprisingly melted away, and the students paid attention as I shared my story. My smile spread across my face as I laughed with the students. After class, I stayed behind, talked to Mrs Hutfilz and made a humorous and real conversation.
Looking back four years later, the ten minutes I spent afraid of giving my speech were really not worth it. My first period of high school certainly made the day unforgettable in the best way and taught me that Mrs Hutfilz had a brilliant sense of style!

While traditional types of books, such as non-fiction, are becoming less popular, fantasy stories are catching on, as shown by the International Book Markets 2025 report. But what makes fantasy so hard to resist?
Fantasy is true to the human mind, especially to its wild side that we all feel but cannot easily express in daily life. Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor noted that everyone lives within limits that both control and comfort us in “the buffered (缓冲的) self”, which makes us see the world as lacking magic and mystery. Therefore, we don’t believe in ghosts or any supernatural forces. This idea protects us from confusion and fear, yet it also holds back the wildest parts of our imagination, making us hope that magic and wonder could someday return to our lives.
Besides, UK author Adam Roberts pointed out that fantasy serves as a controlled and safe return to the ideas we have ignored. It allows us to experience a gentle, limited version of the legendary past. With its kings and adventures, fantasy brings back what we miss in our modern and orderly world of work and routine, but only in a controlled way. We enjoy imagining ourselves as strong heroes or special “chosen ones” when real life makes us feel small. But we do not want to live in a world ruled by powerful kings and violent warriors.
Moreover, fantasy is something not just wanted but needed, as it encourages our imagination, noted The Guardian. A purely scientific world feels cold and empty, unable to feed our spirits. As Philip Pullman writes in The Rose Field, Lyra considers that human beings need certain things we cannot prove, yet we would struggle to live without them, especially our imagination. As she says, “Maybe the imagination is a sort of wind that blows through all the worlds... It shows us true things.”
In a world where logic and routine take over, fantasy is a reminder of a hidden longing for wonder.
8. How does the author introduce the topic of the text?
A. By listing different types of books. B. By describing a shared human need.
C. By quoting a well-known philosopher. D. By highlighting a recent market trend.
9. According to Charles Taylor, what is the function of “the buffered self”?
A. It inspires us to seek magic in our daily lives. B. It protects us but limits our imagination.
C. It creates a world full of mystery and wonder. D. It helps us express our wild side more freely.
10. According to Adam Roberts, what does fantasy help us do?
A. Let us return to forgotten ideas safely. B. Teach us to ignore all our strange ideas.
C. Rule the world with kings and warriors. D. Become great heroes in our real daily life.
11. Why does the author mention Lyra’s words in The Rose Field?
A. To present the limits of science. B. To stress the importance of imagination.
C. To suggest that imagination can be proven. D. To show imagination is less important than science.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】主要说明了随着纪实类书籍遇冷,奇幻文学日渐流行。文章从人性心理、情感寄托和精神需求角度,分析奇幻作品满足人们想象、慰藉心灵、弥补现实缺憾的深层原因。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“While traditional types of books, such as non-fiction, are becoming less popular, fantasy stories are catching on, as shown by the International Book Markets 2025 report. But what makes fantasy so hard to resist?(虽然传统的书籍类型(如非虚构类书籍)的受欢迎程度正在下降,但奇幻故事却越来越受到人们的喜爱,这一点从《2025 年国际图书市场报告》中便可见一斑。那么,是什么让奇幻故事如此难以抗拒呢?)”可知,作者过强调一个近期的市场趋势引入这篇文章的主题。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This idea protects us from confusion and fear, yet it also holds back the wildest parts of our imagination, making us hope that magic and wonder could someday return to our lives.(这个想法能帮助我们避免陷入困惑和恐惧之中,但它也抑制了我们想象力中最疯狂的部分,让我们满怀希望,期待着魔法和奇迹有一天能重新回到我们的生活中)”可知,根据查尔斯·泰勒的观点,“缓冲自我”的作用是保护我们,但又限制了我们的想象力。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Besides, UK author Adam Roberts pointed out that fantasy serves as a controlled and safe return to the ideas we have ignored.(此外,英国作家亚当·罗伯茨指出,奇幻文学起到了一种控制和保护的作用,它让我们得以回归那些我们曾忽视的观念)”可知,据亚当·罗伯茨所说,幻想让我们安全地重温那些被遗忘的想法。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Moreover, fantasy is something not just wanted but needed, as it encourages our imagination, noted The Guardian. A purely scientific world feels cold and empty, unable to feed our spirits. As Philip Pullman writes in The Rose Field, Lyra considers that human beings need certain things we cannot prove, yet we would struggle to live without them, especially our imagination. As she says, “Maybe the imagination is a sort of wind that blows through all the worlds... It shows us true things.”(此外,《卫报》指出,幻想并非只是人们想要的东西,而是人们所必需的,因为它能激发我们的想象力。一个纯粹的科学世界会让人感到冰冷和空虚,无法滋养我们的精神世界。正如菲利普·普尔曼在《玫瑰园》中所写,莱拉认为人类需要一些我们无法证明却又不可或缺的东西,而这些东西尤其包括我们的想象力。正如她所说:“也许想象力是一种贯穿所有世界的风……它向我们展示了真实的事物。”)”可知,作者在《玫瑰园》中提及莱拉的话语,其目的是强调想象力的重要性。
D
A new fast-food restaurant, BurgerBot, is getting a lot of attention in the restaurant industry. It hires robots instead of humans to prepare meals. The restaurant features robots that can work non-stop to make burgers without breaks.
BurgerBot is part of a growing trend (趋势) of robots in the food service industry. The restaurant believes its technology is suitable for tasks that humans aren’t interested in, such as making burgers. This development comes when many fast-food restaurants face difficulties in hiring and keeping staff. Robot workers help restaurants run smoothly without dealing with staff problems.
The introduction of fully automated (自动的) restaurants raises questions about the future of job markets in the food service industry. Fast food has long provided many jobs, especially for people starting their first job or those without higher education. With statements like “the robots are taking our jobs”, BurgerBot admits the substitution of human workers but says it’s a change we can’t avoid. The restaurant sees this shift as progress, not a problem.
BurgerBot stresses cleanliness and standardization as key benefits of its robot-made food. By avoiding human contact, the automated system helps lower the risk of food being prepared in an unclean way. It also ensures equal amounts of food are served each time. This reduces the variation that comes with human preparation. However, there are still questions about how customers will respond to the lack of human contact. It remains to be seen whether the standard quality of robot-made food can make up for the loss of the human touch in food preparation.
As this technology grows, customers will eventually decide whether cleanliness and standardization are more important than the skill and care that humans put into preparing food.
12. Why does BurgerBot think robots are suitable for some restaurant tasks?
A. They work faster than humans. B. They make food more creative.
C. They do tasks people don’t like to do. D. They reduce the cost of hiring human staff.
13. What does the underlined word “substitution” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Replacement. B. Employment.
C. Improvement. D. Requirement.
14. How might some customers react to the robots?
A. They don’t believe robots can make food.
B. They dislike food that looks exactly the same.
C. They miss the care that people put into cooking.
D. They are worried that robots use too much energy.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. How Fast Food Restaurants Develop B. Why Robot-made Food Benefits Health
C. Why Human Workers Are Better Than Robots D. How Robots Are Changing Fast Food Service
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了一家名为BurgerBot的新型快餐店用机器人代替人类准备餐食,以及这一现象对快餐行业的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“The restaurant believes its technology is suitable for tasks that humans aren’t interested in, such as making burgers. (这家餐厅认为,它的技术适用于人类不感兴趣的任务,比如制作汉堡。)”可知,BurgerBot认为机器人适合一些餐厅任务是因为它们可以做人们不喜欢做的任务。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段中“With statements like “the robots are taking our jobs”, BurgerBot admits the substitution of human workers but says it’s a change we can’t avoid. (针对“机器人在抢我们的饭碗”这类言论,汉堡机器人餐厅承认人类员工会被substitution,但表示这是我们无法避免的变革。)”可知,BurgerBot承认机器人正在取代人类工人的工作,但表示这是我们无法避免的改变。故substitution意思是“取代”。A. Replacement.取代;B. Employment.雇佣;C. Improvement.改善;D. Requirement.要求。故选A。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“However, there are still questions about how customers will respond to the lack of human contact. It remains to be seen whether the standard quality of robot-made food can make up for the loss of the human touch in food preparation. (然而,关于顾客将如何应对缺乏人际接触的问题仍然存在。机器人制作的食物的标准质量能否弥补食物准备过程中缺乏人情味的损失,还有待观察。)”可知,一些顾客可能会怀念人们烹饪时的用心。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是根据第一段“A new fast-food restaurant, BurgerBot, is getting a lot of attention in the restaurant industry. It hires robots instead of humans to prepare meals. The restaurant features robots that can work non-stop to make burgers without breaks. (一家名为BurgerBot的新型快餐店在餐饮业备受关注。它雇佣机器人而不是人类来准备餐食。这家餐厅的特色是机器人可以不知疲倦地不停工作来制作汉堡。)”可知,文章主要说明了BurgerBot用机器人代替人类准备餐食,以及这一现象对快餐行业的影响。可知,D选项“How Robots Are Changing Fast Food Service (机器人如何改变快餐服务)”最符合文章标题。故选D。

Use a piggy bank to teach saving habits.
A piggy bank isn’t just a cute decoration. It’s a child’s first savings account. ____18____ The goal is to show how money builds up over time. Watching the bank fill up becomes its own reward(回报). It teaches patience. And it starts a habit that beats unreasonable buying before it even begins.

This introduces interest, bank statements, and the idea that money can work for them, even when they’re not touching it. ____19____ The money no longer belongs to the parents.

____20____
Teaching the difference between needs and wants is one of the most important lessons in money management. Use real - life moments like grocery runs or online wish lists.

That’s the first building block of financial confidence.(展示一美元如何变成一份零食。这是建立财务信心的第一块基石。)”可知上文说的是让他们拿着钱,在商店里数零钱,观察东西是如何被购买的,下文说的是展示一美元如何变成一份零食,初步建立财务信心,可推理出空白处表示的是将日常时刻与金钱的运作方式联系起来,与E项“It’s about connecting everyday moments to how money works.(这是关于将日常时刻与金钱的运作方式联系起来。)”表达的含义一致,故选E项。
【18题详解】

【19题详解】
根据上文“This introduces interest, bank statements, and the idea that money can work for them, even when they’re not touching it.(这会让他们了解到利息、银行对账单,以及即便不直接接触金钱,金钱也能为他们产生收益这一概念)”可知上文介绍了带孩子去银行开户的好处,A项“It also gives them pride in ownership(这也让他们对拥有感感到自豪)”进一步说明了带孩子去银行开户的另一个好处,即让他们有拥有感并感到自豪,与上文是并列关系,故选A项。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The classroom fell quiet after the new girl named Sophia finished answering a question. Her words carried a strange accent (口音). Suddenly, a loud laugh broke the silence. Leo, the boy from the back row, was copying her accent perfectly. The room was filled with laughter. Sophia didn’t say a word. She just looked down, her ears turning red, and tried to write something in her notebook.
From that day on, Sophia became silent. She spoke only when called upon and spent every lunchtime alone in the library. Leo’s world was the opposite — full of friends, basketball, and noise. He soon forgot about the incident, but an invisible wall remained between them.
Then, on a rainy Tuesday after school, something unexpected happened. Leo had stayed late to practice basketball alone. Jumping for a score, he landed badly and fell heavily to the ground. He tried to stand up but failed again and again, pain shooting through his ankle.
Just then, Sophia walked past the court, her head buried in a book. She heard his sharp cry and looked up. Seeing Leo on the ground, she hesitated (犹豫) only a second before walking towards him. She didn’t smile or speak much. Silently, she helped him up, supporting his weight as they moved slowly across the wet court. Step by step, she guided him towards the school gate where he could call for help.
The next week, Leo returned to school on crutches (拐杖), struggling to move between desks. He couldn’t keep up with the lessons. One morning, he found a simple notebook waiting on his desk. Inside were perfect math notes, covering every topic he had missed, with clear explanations and example problems. At the top, in small, careful handwriting, was the only message: “The key points are underlined.” Leo looked around the classroom, wondering who had left this quiet gift.
注意:
1.写作词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He turned to the first page of the notebook and looked at the name on it.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that day on, Leo and Sophia’s relationship changed a lot.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
He turned to the first page of the notebook and looked at the name on it. It was Sophia’s name, written in the same small and careful handwriting as the message. Leo’s heart sank suddenly, filled with deep guilt. He thought of the day he mocked her accent, the way she lowered her head in embarrassment, and how she had been alone every day since then. Yet she still helped him when he was in trouble, without a single complaint or mention of his past mistake. He clutched the notebook tightly, his eyes burning with regret, determined to apologize to her sincerely.
From that day on, Leo and Sophia’s relationship changed a lot. Leo gave up his playful and rude ways, and he often went to the library to accompany Sophia during lunchtime. He would ask her for help with math patiently, and in return, he helped her practice her spoken English to get rid of the strange accent. The invisible wall between them disappeared gradually. They became good friends, sharing joys and sorrows with each other. Leo finally realized that true friendship comes from kindness and respect, not mockery.
【解析】
【导语】文章以人物为线索展开,讲述新转来的女孩Sophia因口音遭Leo嘲笑,此后变得沉默寡言,Leo则依旧活跃。直到一个雨天,Leo打篮球受伤,Sophia不计前嫌默默帮助他,之后还留下精心整理的数学笔记助他学习,展现了包容与善意能化解矛盾、传递温暖 。
【详解】1.段落续写
①由第一段首句内容“他翻开笔记本的第一页,看着上面的名字。”可知,第一段可描写Leo的懊悔之情并决定向Sophia道歉。
②由第二段首句内容“从那天起,利奥和索菲亚的关系发生了翻天覆地的变化。”可知,第二段可描写两人互相帮助,成为朋友以及对友谊的感悟。
2.续写线索:Leo感到后悔——向Sophia道歉——互相帮助,成为朋友——感悟
3.词汇激活
行为类
①帮助:help/assist
②决定做某事:determine to do sth./make up one’s mind to do sth.
③消失:disappear/fade away

It’s no wonder that the first school day of my senior high school was so impressive. When I woke up in the morning, there was only one thing on my mind: what to wear. A billion thoughts appeared through my brain. Not only was it my first day of high school, but it was my first day of school in a new state; the first impression is everything, and it was important for me to impress the people who I would spend the next three years with.
After carefully searching my closet, I proudly came out in a dress from Target. The soft cotton was comfortable, and the specially designed shoulders added a little fun. Yes, this dress was the one. An hour later, I felt powerful as I headed toward Room 1136. But as I entered class, my jaw dropped to the floor.
Sitting at her desk was Mrs Hutfilz, my English teacher, wearing exactly the same dress as me. I kept my head down and tiptoed (踮着脚走) to my seat. I made it through my simple introduction speech until Mrs Hutfilz stood up, jokingly saying that she liked my style. Although this was the moment I had been afraid of from the moment I walked in, all my anxiety surprisingly melted away, and the students paid attention as I shared my story. My smile spread across my face as I laughed with the students. After class, I stayed behind, talked to Mrs Hutfilz and made a humorous and real conversation.
Looking back four years later, the ten minutes I spent afraid of giving my speech were really not worth it. My first period of high school certainly made the day unforgettable in the best way and taught me that Mrs Hutfilz had a brilliant sense of style!
4. What can we know from the first paragraph?
A. She had no confidence in herself.
B. She cared too much about her appearance.
C. She thought the first impression important.
D. She had the trouble choosing a proper dress.
5. How did the author feel when hearing what her teacher said?
A. Annoyed. B. Relaxed. C. Frightened. D. Confused.
6. Which of the following statements is true?
A. Her teacher made a joke on her.
B. Her teacher had a sense of humor.
C. Her teacher was unhappy for the same dress.
D. Her teacher had a great talk with her in class.
7. What is the writer’s goal of writing the passage?
A. To share an unforgettable experience.
B. To explore the troubles of choosing clothes.
C. To show her teacher’s brilliant sense of style.
D. To prove the importance of the first impression.
C
While traditional types of books, such as non-fiction, are becoming less popular, fantasy stories are catching on, as shown by the International Book Markets 2025 report. But what makes fantasy so hard to resist?
Fantasy is true to the human mind, especially to its wild side that we all feel but cannot easily express in daily life. Canadian philosopher Charles Taylor noted that everyone lives within limits that both control and comfort us in “the buffered (缓冲的) self”, which makes us see the world as lacking magic and mystery. Therefore, we don’t believe in ghosts or any supernatural forces. This idea protects us from confusion and fear, yet it also holds back the wildest parts of our imagination, making us hope that magic and wonder could someday return to our lives.
Besides, UK author Adam Roberts pointed out that fantasy serves as a controlled and safe return to the ideas we have ignored. It allows us to experience a gentle, limited version of the legendary past. With its kings and adventures, fantasy brings back what we miss in our modern and orderly world of work and routine, but only in a controlled way. We enjoy imagining ourselves as strong heroes or special “chosen ones” when real life makes us feel small. But we do not want to live in a world ruled by powerful kings and violent warriors.
Moreover, fantasy is something not just wanted but needed, as it encourages our imagination, noted The Guardian. A purely scientific world feels cold and empty, unable to feed our spirits. As Philip Pullman writes in The Rose Field, Lyra considers that human beings need certain things we cannot prove, yet we would struggle to live without them, especially our imagination. As she says, “Maybe the imagination is a sort of wind that blows through all the worlds... It shows us true things.”
In a world where logic and routine take over, fantasy is a reminder of a hidden longing for wonder.
8. How does the author introduce the topic of the text?
A. By listing different types of books. B. By describing a shared human need.
C. By quoting a well-known philosopher. D. By highlighting a recent market trend.
9. According to Charles Taylor, what is the function of “the buffered self”?
A. It inspires us to seek magic in our daily lives. B. It protects us but limits our imagination.
C. It creates a world full of mystery and wonder. D. It helps us express our wild side more freely.
10. According to Adam Roberts, what does fantasy help us do?
A. Let us return to forgotten ideas safely. B. Teach us to ignore all our strange ideas.
C. Rule the world with kings and warriors. D. Become great heroes in our real daily life.
11. Why does the author mention Lyra’s words in The Rose Field?
A. To present the limits of science. B. To stress the importance of imagination.
C. To suggest that imagination can be proven. D. To show imagination is less important than science.
D
A new fast-food restaurant, BurgerBot, is getting a lot of attention in the restaurant industry. It hires robots instead of humans to prepare meals. The restaurant features robots that can work non-stop to make burgers without breaks.
BurgerBot is part of a growing trend (趋势) of robots in the food service industry. The restaurant believes its technology is suitable for tasks that humans aren’t interested in, such as making burgers. This development comes when many fast-food restaurants face difficulties in hiring and keeping staff. Robot workers help restaurants run smoothly without dealing with staff problems.
The introduction of fully automated (自动的) restaurants raises questions about the future of job markets in the food service industry. Fast food has long provided many jobs, especially for people starting their first job or those without higher education. With statements like “the robots are taking our jobs”, BurgerBot admits the substitution of human workers but says it’s a change we can’t avoid. The restaurant sees this shift as progress, not a problem.
BurgerBot stresses cleanliness and standardization as key benefits of its robot-made food. By avoiding human contact, the automated system helps lower the risk of food being prepared in an unclean way. It also ensures equal amounts of food are served each time. This reduces the variation that comes with human preparation. However, there are still questions about how customers will respond to the lack of human contact. It remains to be seen whether the standard quality of robot-made food can make up for the loss of the human touch in food preparation.
As this technology grows, customers will eventually decide whether cleanliness and standardization are more important than the skill and care that humans put into preparing food.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The classroom fell quiet after the new girl named Sophia finished answering a question. Her words carried a strange accent (口音). Suddenly, a loud laugh broke the silence. Leo, the boy from the back row, was copying her accent perfectly. The room was filled with laughter. Sophia didn’t say a word. She just looked down, her ears turning red, and tried to write something in her notebook.
From that day on, Sophia became silent. She spoke only when called upon and spent every lunchtime alone in the library. Leo’s world was the opposite — full of friends, basketball, and noise. He soon forgot about the incident, but an invisible wall remained between them.
Then, on a rainy Tuesday after school, something unexpected happened. Leo had stayed late to practice basketball alone. Jumping for a score, he landed badly and fell heavily to the ground. He tried to stand up but failed again and again, pain shooting through his ankle.
Just then, Sophia walked past the court, her head buried in a book. She heard his sharp cry and looked up. Seeing Leo on the ground, she hesitated (犹豫) only a second before walking towards him. She didn’t smile or speak much. Silently, she helped him up, supporting his weight as they moved slowly across the wet court. Step by step, she guided him towards the school gate where he could call for help.
The next week, Leo returned to school on crutches (拐杖), struggling to move between desks. He couldn’t keep up with the lessons. One morning, he found a simple notebook waiting on his desk. Inside were perfect math notes, covering every topic he had missed, with clear explanations and example problems. At the top, in small, careful handwriting, was the only message: “The key points are underlined.” Leo looked around the classroom, wondering who had left this quiet gift.
注意:
1.写作词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
He turned to the first page of the notebook and looked at the name on it.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that day on, Leo and Sophia’s relationship changed a lot.
