Mike Pavlik sees a lot while recovering stolen bikes around Minneapolis. Once, pretending to be a potential buyer, he dressed up in a sport coat and met a seller. Pavlik took note of the bike’s make, model, and markings, confirming it was the one he was hunting. He asked to take it for a test ride. The seller wanted some collateral (抵押物).
“Do I look like the kind of guy that steals bikes, dude?” Pavlik recalls asking the man. Then he just pedaled off. An hour later, the seller texted him, “I guess you’re not coming back?”
Pavlik is part of an unusual army: amateur detectives who find stolen bikes and return them to their owners. As bike theft becomes more profitable, grassroots efforts to frustrate thieves are springing up nationwide. The volunteers say recovering bikes can be strangely fun and addictive.
Pavlik, who is 51, works part-time at Trader Joe’s when he is not serving as a detective for Twin Cities Stolen Bikes, which has a Facebook page with 11,000 members. Pavlik has a certain skill set from working as a bartender and a National Guard police officer. “I can read people and talk to them really well,” he says. “I’m also not afraid to get in someone’s face. Most of these guys are cowards (胆小鬼).”
Said a Minneapolis police spokesman: “While we commend all residents who step up to improve their communities, safety and lawfulness are the most important. We do not support aggressive strategies that put anyone in harm’s way.”
One guy who Pavlik says allegedly (据说) runs a bike theft ring also stands out. The first time he confronted the man with a bike’s proof of ownership, the man pedaled off. Pavlik gave chase on his bike and shot him with pepper spray until he crashed. “I got him,” he says. “Then I just lifted the stolen bike onto my shoulder and sped off.” Another victory.
24. Why did Pavlik ask to take the bike for a test ride?
A. To check the bike’s condition. B. To impress the seller.
C. To take back the bike. D. To show he is a serious buyer.
25. What is the main reason for the rise of amateur bike detectives?
A. Social media’s role in organization. B. The rise in bike theft cases.
C. Volunteers’ enjoyment of bike recovery. D. The police’s failure to stop bike theft.
26. What does the police spokesman imply?
A. Pavlik’s methods are against the law.
B. Residents’ actions are worth encouraging.
C. Improving community living safety is urgent.
D. Dangerous situations should be left to the police.
27. Which of the following best describes Pavlik?
A. Brave and skillful. B. Friendly and honest.
C. Confident and sociable. D. Kind and patient.
C
In today’s globalized world, plastic pollution has emerged as a major environmental concern. Every year, over 400 million tons of plastic are produced worldwide, much of which is designed for single use. The convenience of disposable packaging — for food, drinks, and consumer goods — has led to an enormous increase in waste. Although plastics are lightweight and flexible, these very properties make them difficult to collect and recycle efficiently.
The impact on the planet extends far beyond visual pollution. It is estimated that more than 8 million tons of plastic enter the oceans annually, affecting over 700 marine species. Seabirds, turtles, and fish often mistake plastic for food, which may lead to injury or death. Moreover, plastic debris breaks down into micro-plastics — tiny particles that can be absorbed by marine life and eventually enter the human food chain. Recent studies have detected micro-plastics in tap water, air, and even human bodies, although the long-term health effects remain uncertain.
In response, governments and organizations have launched many initiatives. Some nations have banned certain single-use plastics, such as straws or shopping bags. Others focus on boosting recycling rates or offering incentives (奖励) to companies that use biodegradable materials. However, these approaches face multiple hurdles. Recycling infrastructure is inadequate in many regions, and biodegradable plastics require specific conditions to decompose, which are not always available.
Experts stress the need for a combination of policy, technology, and individual action. Dr. Anna Carter, a marine biologist, points out that education and public awareness play a powerful role. “When people understand the consequences of daily choices,” she says, “they are more likely to reduce unnecessary packaging, select reusable products, and participate in local clean-ups.” Innovative companies are also investing in new materials — like plant-based plastics — which promise to be more eco-friendly in the long run.
Ultimately, solving plastic pollution requires collaboration between governments, industries, and citizens. While progress has been made, the challenge is ongoing. Dr. Carter insists, “Every effort, big or small, can spark change. It starts with everyone.”
28. Why is plastic pollution a major concern?
A. Plastic is cheap to produce. B. Plastic products are convenient to use.
C. Plastic waste is increasing rapidly. D. Plastic is single-use and hard to recycle.
29. How does the author show the impact of plastic pollution?
A. By presenting experimental results. B. By presenting data and examples.
C. By analyzing survey reports. D. By quoting findings from experts.
30. The underlined word “hurdles” in Paragraph 3 probably means _______.
A. difficulties B. requirements C. drawbacks D. changes
31. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To present expert views on solutions. B. To highlight new materials for sustainability.
C. To raise awareness and call for action. D. To report studies on plastic harm.
D
At times our emotions can seem like unreasonable responses, but our brains have carefully evolved these mechanisms with just one target: keeping us alive. While we interpret different emotions as positive or negative, the most ancient parts of the human brain developed them on the principle that we must survive. We evolved emotions as a means of communicative function and as a way to help us navigate social interactions and our environment safely: they are designed to protect us. Our fear responses were originally a survival strategy that warned us of potential dangers, such as our inborn unease around spiders and snakes. Then there is the feeling of disgust, which warns us of foods or other substances that may be dangerous.
Our other emotions are responses to social interactions that keep us part of a group. We are fundamentally a social species, and throughout our evolution have relied on our tribe to help us survive by working together to find food and shelter. Anger is a response to perceived social threats or a signal of dominance; pride can help us to boost our social status, while shame is intended to decrease our standing within a group. These emotions maintain the social balance of our tribe — who we follow, who we trust, who we care about.
The fundamental emotions that motivate us individually are almost always sadness and happiness. Sadness results from loss, and serves the biological purpose of motivating a person to recover that loss, whether it is a young child searching for their mother in a supermarket or someone trying hard to get a new job after being dismissed. But the ultimate human emotion is happiness, and we are all in search of it. When you’re sitting around a campfire, safe in the countryside with some close friends and good food, you feel happiness because you have found the resources that your primitive brain is seeking.
The next time you sit in an airport departure lounge, look for the emotions. Our bodies have created these experiences — the tears as we say goodbye, the smiles and laughter as we are reunited — for the purpose of keeping us alive. Our emotions and feelings are fundamentally what make us human, but this means we’re in for a bit of a roller coaster along the way.
32. What does the author say about emotions?
A. They appear illogical at times. B. They developed to ensure our survival.
C. They are viewed as either good or bad. D. They signal threats from certain substances.
33. According to the text, when does happiness occur?
A. When people’s emotional needs are met. B. When we recover from a painful loss.
C. When people get along with their group. D. When our ancient brain gets what it wants.
34. Why does the author mention “roller coaster” in the last paragraph?
A. To show that emotions are unpredictable. B. To stress emotions are hard to control.
C. To explain the ups and downs of emotions. D. To describe the exciting nature of emotions.
35. Which is the most suitable title for the text?
A. The Purpose Behind Our Feelings B. How Emotions Shape Our Lives
C. The Social Nature of Emotions D. Emotions: Protection or More?

Beat the heat — How to stay cool when temperatures soar
Maybe you’re one of those people who peel off a sweater when everyone else is complaining that it’s chilly. 36 The point is, there’s no single temperature that can be pinpointed (明确指出) as comfortable for everyone.
“What temperature people start to become uncomfortable at is really individual and variable,” says S. Tony Wolf, PhD, assistant professor at the University of Georgia. 37 It also relies on things like humidity and air flow. Plus, combinations of factors unique to individuals — age, gender, body mass, medical conditions and medications — affect how we experience temperature. And fortunately, there are many things we can do to stay comfortable in spite of the heat.
38 “Sweating is how we regulate heat,” says Robert Kenefick, PhD, professor at the University of Massachusetts. “Drinking plain, cool water or fluids with electrolytes (like sports drinks) helps.”
Choose clothing that’s right — light fabrics, light colors — and loose. Loose clothing allows for better airflow and helps keep you cool. 39
Keep windows covered with shades, blinds or curtains. Think of how a car with closed windows heats up when left sitting in sunlight — it’s called the greenhouse effect. The same thing can happen at home if uncovered windows trap sunlight and heat inside.
Keep a spray bottle handy. Spraying yourself with cool or cold water and then sitting or standing near a fan can help your body evaporate (蒸发) sweat and dissipate (消散) heat through your skin. 40 “The more of your body surface areas that you cool, the better off you’re going to be,” says Wolf.
A. Drink plenty of water.
B. If you are really hot, take a cold bath or shower.
C. Use fans to keep the air constantly flowing indoors.
D. Go out earlier in the day when it’s cooler or later at night.
E. But workout clothing made from new fabrics is also a good choice.
F. In fact, our perception of heat and cold doesn’t just depend on the temperature.
G. Or maybe you’re the person who’s putting on a sweater when others say it’s too hot.

Pegasus 3, the highest-grossing film in China during the 2026 Chinese New Year holiday, had its London premiere on Wednesday.

“During the last hour or so, when they do that race, 59 (honest), I couldn’t look away from the screen,” audience member Callum Williams said. “I’ve grown up watching different car movies, 60 I felt like this one was a different take on what you usually see when people race in movies,” Crash Threlfall said.
Audience member Sal Esen described it 61 very well made. Esen also believes the film explores a universal theme that audiences worldwide can relate to. “It’s 62 (entertain) and fun, yet serious.

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之成为一篇完整的短文。
It was 1 a.m. on Christmas morning, but for Marisa Shumaker, it was still Christmas Eve. Like so many other parents, she had holiday magic to make.
For weeks, her 4-year-old daughter, Aubree, had been asking for one thing only for Christmas: a “real piano keyboard,” not just some small one made for little kids. Now that Aubree was asleep, Shumaker pulled the box from its hiding spot in their home in Bel Air, Maryland, ready to unveil the 61-key keyboard with full-size keys — perfect for beginners like Aubree. Shumaker figured she’d assemble the stand and bench, and set it all up so it would be ready to play when Aubree woke up and discovered her surprise. But when she opened the box, only the stand and bench were inside. No keyboard.
Panic overtook her as she realized what she hadn’t noticed before: The keyboard was sold separately.
The night before, mother and daughter had watched the movie The Santa Clause. At one point, two of the main characters talk about the gifts they desperately wanted when they were kids but never received, which made them doubt the existence of Santa.
“That scene immediately played in my mind,” says Shumaker. She recalled how happy she was as a little girl, about Aubree’s age, when she got her first guitar as a gift. What would Aubree think when she came downstairs and found only a bench and stand — no keyboard?
There must be some way to fix this, she thought. Maybe an online retailer could deliver a keyboard by morning. Maybe she could creep out to a store, if one was still open. She looked into both options, but no luck. Now desperate, Shumaker posted in a neighborhood Facebook group: “I’m about to cry,” she wrote, explaining the situation.
Andy Spencer, who lives 5 miles from Shumaker, was crawling into bed just before 2 a.m. when he saw her plea. He thought of the keyboard his wife had gotten for her daughter, Hailey, two years earlier. They still had it, and honestly, Hailey had hardly ever played it.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题纸相应位置作答。
Spencer got out of bed and headed down the hall to see whether Hailey was awake.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The two messaged back and forth, agreeing to meet at a grocery store across the street from Shumaker’s home.________________________________________________________________

参考答案及解析
第一部分 1-5BABCA 6-10ACCBB 11-15CAACB 16-20BBACC
第二部分 阅读
第一节
A
本文是一篇旅游宣传材料。文章介绍了哈尔滨冬季开发的四个主题活动项目——冰建艺术园、国际雪雕博览会、冬季民俗文化游和家庭冰灯工坊,分别概述了每个项目的核心特色和体验内容,旨在吸引不同兴趣的游客前往游览。
21. C 细节理解题。根据Ice Architecture Park部分中的“In addition to sightseeing, visitors can try ice slides and skating, making the park both visually impressive and entertaining.”可知,除了观光,游客还可以体验冰滑梯和滑冰。C项“Go ice sliding and skating.”完全匹配。故选C。
22. B 推理判断题。根据International Snow Sculpture Expo部分中的“invites artists from different countries to create large snow sculptures based on annual themes. Information boards are placed beside the works, explaining the design ideas and creative process. The event has become an important platform for artistic exchange”可知,该项目邀请各国艺术家创作雪雕,并设有信息板解释设计理念和创作过程,是一个艺术交流平台,因此最可能吸引对艺术感兴趣的学生。A项Ice Architecture Park侧重观光和娱乐;C项Winter Folk Culture Tours侧重文化和历史;D项Family Ice Workshop侧重动手制作和亲子教育。故选B。
23. A 推理判断题。通读全文,文章以“As winter approaches, Harbin ...”开篇引出哈尔滨的冰雪活动,随后分段介绍了四个主题项目的具体内容和特色,语言生动具有吸引力,整体旨在向潜在游客宣传哈尔滨的冬季旅游项目。这种介绍性的、略带宣传色彩的文字最可能出现在旅游杂志中。B项“当地报纸”更侧重新闻性和时效性,而本文是系统的活动介绍;C项“文化指南”通常更侧重历史背景和文化深度解读;D项“历史文件”与文章内容完全不符。故选A。
B
本文是一篇人物特写。文章讲述了明尼阿波利斯市民迈克·帕夫利克作为一名业余自行车侦探,通过巧妙策略和果敢行动追回被盗自行车的故事,展现了他独特的技能和行事风格,同时也引出了警方对此类民间行动的安全警示。
24. C 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Pavlik took note of the bike’s make, model, and markings, confirming it was the one he was hunting.”可知,帕夫利克在试骑前已经确认这辆车就是他正在寻找的被盗车辆。因此,他要求试骑的真实目的并非测试车况或展示诚意,而是为了直接骑走车辆,将其追回。C项“To take back the bike”准确概括了这一意图。故选C。
25. B 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“As bike theft becomes more profitable, grassroots efforts to frustrate thieves are springing up nationwide.”可知,自行车盗窃变得利润更高,导致盗窃案件可能增多或更猖獗,从而激发了民间自发打击盗贼的行动。因此,业余自行车侦探增多的主要原因是盗窃自行车现象的加剧。B项“The rise in bike theft cases”是对原文“bike theft becomes more profitable”这一背景的合理推断——利润更高往往意味着案件更多。A项“社交媒体的组织作用”虽在第四段提及帕夫利克使用了Facebook,但这只是工具,并非兴起的主因;C项“志愿者享受追回自行车的乐趣”是第三段提到的现象(strangely fun and addictive),但这是结果或伴随感受,并非根本原因;D项“警方未能阻止自行车盗窃”在文中未提及,属过度推断。故选B。
26. D 推理判断题。根据第五段警方发言人的话“We do not support aggressive strategies that put anyone in harm’s way.”可知,警方不支持任何使人置身危险之中的激进策略。言下之意是,面对可能引发危险的情况,应交由警方处理,而非公民自行采取冒险行动。D项“Dangerous situations should be left to the police”是对这一立场的合理推断。A项“帕夫利克的方法违法”过于绝对,发言人仅表示“不支持”,未直接判定违法;B项“居民的行为值得鼓励”虽被发言人提及(we commend ...),但后半句的转折才是其强调的重点;C项“改善社区居住安全刻不容缓”与发言人关注的“行动方式的安全性”不是同一概念。故选D。
27. A 推理判断题。通读全文,帕夫利克敢于假扮买家与卖家对峙(第一段),敢于在确认后直接骑走车辆(第二段),敢于追捕涉嫌盗窃团伙的嫌疑人并用辣椒水将其制服(最后一段),这些行为体现了他的“勇敢(brave)”。同时,他能从酒吧招待和国民警卫队警察的工作中习得“读懂他人、善于交谈”的技能,并能成功策划追回行动,体现了他的“熟练/有策略(skillful)”。A项“Brave and skillful”准确概括了这两个特质。故选A。
C
本文是一篇环保类说明文。文章介绍了全球塑料污染的严峻现状及其对海洋生态和人类健康的深远影响,列举了各国政府采取的应对措施及其面临的挑战,最后引用专家观点,呼吁政策、技术与个人行动相结合,共同应对这一全球性问题。
28. D 细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句“The convenience of disposable packaging ... has led to an enormous increase in waste. Although plastics are lightweight and flexible, these very properties make them difficult to collect and recycle efficiently.”可知,塑料之所以成为重大环境问题,一方面是因为大量一次性塑料导致垃圾激增,另一方面是其轻便柔韧的特性使其难以有效回收。D项“Plastic is single-use and hard to recycle”准确概括了这两个核心原因。故选D。
29. B 细节理解题。根据第二段,作者通过列举具体数据(“more than 8 million tons of plastic enter the oceans annually, affecting over 700 marine species”)和具体事例(海鸟、海龟、鱼类误食塑料,微塑料进入食物链)来展示塑料污染的深远影响。B项“By presenting data and examples”准确概括了这一写作手法。故选B。
30. A 词义猜测题。根据第三段,前文提到政府采取了禁令、提高回收率等措施,但后文指出“Recycling infrastructure is inadequate in many regions, and biodegradable plastics require specific conditions to decompose, which are not always available.”这些都是在描述措施推行过程中遇到的“困难”或“障碍”。因此,“hurdles”意为“difficulties”。B项“要求”、C项“缺点”、D项“变化”均不符合上下文逻辑。故选A。
31. C 目的意图题。通读全文,文章开篇指出塑料污染的严重性,中间通过数据和事例展示其危害,接着介绍现有措施及其不足,最后引用专家观点强调“Every effort, big or small, can spark change. It starts with everyone.”。由此可见,文章不仅呈现问题,更旨在唤醒公众意识,呼吁每个人采取行动。C项“To raise awareness and call for action”准确概括了这一主旨。A项“呈现专家对解决方案的看法”是最后两段的内容,以偏概全;B项“突出可持续性的新材料”是第四段的部分内容,同样片面;D项“报道关于塑料危害的研究”只覆盖第二段内容,忽略了后半部分的呼吁。故选C。
D
本文是一篇科普说明文。文章探讨了人类情绪的进化根源,指出恐惧、厌恶、愤怒、悲伤、快乐等情绪并非无理反应,而是大脑为了确保生存、维持社会联系而精心设计的保护机制,并强调情绪虽带来起伏,却是人性的根本。
32. B 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“our brains have carefully evolved these mechanisms with just one target: keeping us alive”以及“We evolved emotions as a means of communicative function and as a way to help us navigate social interactions and our environment safely: they are designed to protect us.”可知,作者明确指出情绪进化的唯一目标是保证我们存活,它们是用来保护我们的。B项“They developed to ensure our survival”是对这一核心观点的准确概括。A项“它们有时显得不合逻辑”虽是第一句提到的现象,但并非作者对情绪的根本看法;C项“它们被看作好或坏”是第一段中人们的普遍解读,而非作者的观点;D项“它们警示某些物质的威胁”仅是恐惧和厌恶情绪的具体功能之一,属于以偏概全。故选B。
33. D 细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“When you’re sitting around a campfire ... you feel happiness because you have found the resources that your primitive brain is seeking.”可知,当人们身处安全环境、与朋友共享美食时感到快乐,是因为找到了原始大脑所寻求的资源。D项“When our ancient brain gets what it wants”是对原文“your primitive brain is seeking”的同义转述。A项“当人们的情感需求被满足”过于笼统,未紧扣原文的“资源”这一核心;B项“当我们从痛苦的损失中恢复”描述的是悲伤的功能(第三段),与快乐无关;C项“当人们与群体相处融洽”虽与第二段的社会情绪相关,但并非快乐发生的具体条件。故选D。
34. C 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Our emotions and feelings are fundamentally what make us human, but this means we’re in for a bit of a roller coaster along the way.”可知,作者用“roller coaster”比喻情绪如同过山车一样有高有低、起伏不定,这是作为人类必然要经历的情感体验。C项“To explain the ups and downs of emotions”准确解释了这一比喻的含义。A项“说明情绪不可预测”和B项“强调情绪难以控制”虽与过山车有一定关联,但文中强调的是情绪本身的起伏变化,而非其不可预测性或可控性;D项“描述情绪的兴奋本质”只抓住了过山车刺激的一面,忽略了低落的一面。故选C。
35. A 标题归纳题。通读全文,文章围绕情绪的进化根源展开:第一段指出情绪是为了确保生存,第二段说明情绪帮助维持社会联系,第三段分析悲伤和快乐的功能,最后总结情绪让人成为人类。因此,文章的核心是揭示情绪背后的“目的”或“功能”。A项“The Purpose Behind Our Feelings”准确概括了这一主旨。B项“情绪如何塑造我们的生活”侧重影响,而文章侧重目的;C项“情绪的社会本质”只覆盖第二段内容,忽略了生存层面;D项“情绪:保护还是更多?”虽涉及保护,但“更多”指向不明,且文章并非在探讨“是否”的问题,而是明确阐述其目的。故选A。
第二节
本文是一篇生活指南类说明文。文章介绍了在高温天气下保持凉爽的多种实用方法,包括补充水分、选择合适衣物、遮挡窗户、使用喷雾降温等,并引用专家观点解释这些方法背后的科学原理。
36. G 上文提到“也许你是那种当别人都抱怨冷时却脱下毛衣的人”,描述了一种对温度感知与众不同的人群。空后指出“关键在于,没有一个能让所有人都感到舒适的确切温度”。G项“Or maybe you’re the person who’s putting on a sweater when others say it’s too hot.(或者你可能是那个别人说太热时却在穿毛衣的人)”与上文形成并列对照,描述了另一种类型的人群,共同引出“每个人对温度的舒适感不同”这一核心观点。故选G。
37. F 上文引用专家观点指出“人们开始感到不适的温度实际上是因人而异、变化多端的”。空后提到“它还取决于湿度和气流等因素”,并使用“also”表示并列。F项“In fact, our perception of heat and cold doesn’t just depend on the temperature.(事实上,我们对冷热的感知并不仅仅取决于温度)”中的“doesn’t just depend on”与后文“also relies on”形成完美呼应,先指出不仅取决于温度,再补充还取决于其他因素,逻辑连贯。故选F。
38. A 空处位于第三段段首,是该段主题句。空后内容围绕出汗调节体温以及饮用凉水或电解质饮料展开。A项“Drink plenty of water.”(多喝水)准确概括了本段的核心建议,作为主题句引出后文关于补水的具体说明,逻辑清晰。故选A。
39. E 上文建议选择浅色、轻薄、宽松的衣物,并解释宽松衣物有助于空气流通。空处需要在此基础上补充其他衣物选择。E项“But workout clothing made from new fabrics is also a good choice.(但由新型面料制成的运动服也是不错的选择)”中的“also”表示补充,“but”则形成轻微转折,说明除了传统宽松衣物外,现代运动面料也是好选择,逻辑合理。故选E。
40. B 上文介绍了用喷雾瓶喷冷水并配合风扇散热的方法,这是一种局部、表面的降温方式。下文引用专家观点“你冷却的身体表面积越大,效果越好”,强调了大面积降温的重要性。B项“If you are really hot, take a cold bath or shower.(如果你真的很热,洗个冷水澡或淋浴)”提出的全身浸泡或淋浴方式能够覆盖几乎全部体表面积,是对上文喷雾降温的递进和补充——当简单方法不够用时,可以采用更彻底的全身降温,与后文“更大体表面积”的逻辑完美契合。故选B。
第三部分 语言运用
第一节
本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了罗杰·克劳福德的故事。他天生患有罕见的缺指畸形,没有双手和一条腿,但在父母(尤其是父亲)的鼓励下,他从未自怜,而是积极投身运动,最终成为网球运动员和励志演说家,用自己的经历告诉人们:真正的障碍不在于看得见的残疾,而在于如何认识并全心投入自己能做的事。
41. A 考查形容词辨析。句意:医生说他患有缺指畸形,这是一种罕见的先天缺陷,在美国每九万名新生儿中仅有一例。根据空后“affecting only one out of 90,000 children”可知,这种疾病的发病率极低,因此是“罕见的”。A项rare(稀有的,罕见的)符合语境。B项common(常见的)、C项regular(规律的)、D项ordinary(普通的)均与发病率极低的描述相悖。故选A。
42. B 考查副词辨析。句意:医生说他可能永远无法走路或照顾自己。根据上文医生对病情的诊断以及下文父母不相信医生的话可知,医生的预测是悲观的,认为他“永远无法”自理。B项never(永不)符合这种消极预期。A项seldom(很少)表示频率低,但不代表完全不能;C项sometimes(有时)和D项usually(通常)均与悲观预测的逻辑不符。故选B。
43. D 考查形容词辨析与固定搭配。句意:我的父母从不允许我为自己感到难过,也不允许因为我的残疾而占别人便宜。固定短语“feel sorry for oneself”意为“为自己感到难过、自怜”。D项sorry(遗憾的,难过的)符合这一搭配。A项nervous(紧张的)、B项hopeless(绝望的)、C项angry(生气的)均无法与feel ... for构成表达“自怜”的固定短语。故选D。
44. A 考查名词辨析与固定搭配。句意:有一次我遇到了麻烦,因为我的学校论文总是迟交。根据下文“school papers were continually late”可知,迟交论文导致了麻烦。固定短语“get into trouble”意为“陷入麻烦”。A项trouble(麻烦)符合语境。B项silence(沉默)、C项argument(争论)、D项danger(危险)均无法与get into构成表达此意的常用搭配。故选A。
45. C 考查名词辨析。句意:他必须用两只“手”一起握住铅笔才能慢慢写字。根据常识,写论文需要用“铅笔”或笔。C项pencil(铅笔)符合语境。A项ruler(尺子)、B项brush(刷子/画笔)、D项eraser(橡皮)均不是写论文时的必需工具,且与后文“write slowly”的逻辑关联不强。故选C。
46. C 考查名词辨析。句意:我请爸爸给老师写个便条,请求把作业期限延长两天。根据语境,向老师申请延期,通常是写一个简短的“便条”说明情况。C项note(便条,短笺)最符合。A项news(新闻)、B项notice(通知,公告)、D项message(口信,信息)均不如note贴切,note更强调写给特定对象的简短书面请求。故选C。
47. B 考查名词辨析。句意同上。根据语境和下文“Instead, Dad made me start writing my paper two days early!”可知,请求将作业期限“延长”两天。B项extension(延长,延期)符合语境。A项discussion(讨论)、C项introduction(介绍)、D项suggestion(建议)均与请求宽限时间的逻辑不符。故选B。
48. D 考查动词辨析与固定搭配。句意:罗杰的父亲总是鼓励他参与体育运动。根据语境可知,父亲鼓励他“参与”运动。固定短语“get involved in”意为“参与,卷入”。D项involved符合搭配。A项divide(分开)、B项dress(穿衣)、C项finish(完成)均无法与get和in构成表达“参与”的固定短语。故选D。
49. A 考查动词辨析。句意:罗杰对运动的热爱与日俱增,他的自信心也是如此。根据上文他12岁入选校队可知,他对运动的热爱是“增长”的。A项grow(增长,增强)符合逻辑。B项change(改变)、C项stop(停止)、D项return(返回)均与上下文积极向上的发展趋势不符。故选A。
50. D 考查动词短语辨析。句意:但并非每一个障碍都向罗杰的决心屈服。根据下文他经历困难(吃饭被围观、网球课失败)可知,障碍并未“让位于”他的决心。D项give way to(让位于,屈服于)符合逻辑,但注意此处是否定形式,意为“并非每个障碍都屈服于他的决心”,即有些障碍他必须硬扛。A项depend on(依赖)、B项take part in(参加)、C项catch up with(赶上)均不符合语境。故选D。
51. B 考查动词辨析。句意:但罗杰坚持了下来。上文提到他在食堂吃饭和网球课上经历痛苦和失败,此处用“but”转折,说明他并未放弃。B项persist(坚持)符合语境。A项earn(赚得)、C项play(玩耍/打球)、D项dream(梦想)均无法准确表达面对困难不放弃的含义。故选B。
52. D 考查动词辨析。句意:罗杰现在巡回全国,向各种团体演讲。根据下文“speaking to groups”可知,他需要去往不同地方进行演讲,因此是“巡回”。D项tour(巡回旅行)符合语境。A项move(移动)、B项record(记录)、C项live(生活)均不如tour准确,tour特指有计划的巡回活动。故选D。
53. C 考查名词辨析。句意:你我之间唯一的区别在于,你能看到我的残疾,而我却看不到你的。根据下文“you can see my handicap, but I can’t see yours. We all have them.”可知,每个人都有自己的缺陷,区别只在于是否可见。C项difference(区别)符合语境。A项reason(原因)、B项choice(选择)、D项advantage(优势)均不符合上下文逻辑。故选C。
54. A 考查不定代词辨析。句意:我告诉他们,我并没有克服任何东西。根据下文“我只是学会了什么是我不能做的……更重要的是,我学会了什么是能做的”可知,罗杰认为自己并非“克服”了什么,而是学会了认识和接纳。A项anything(任何事物)用于否定句,符合语法和语义。B项something(某事)通常用于肯定句;C项nothing(没有东西)与haven’t构成双重否定,意为“克服了一切”,逻辑相反;D项everything(一切)与haven’t连用意为“并非一切”,语义模糊。故选A。
55. C 考查动词辨析。句意:比如弹钢琴或用筷子吃饭。根据常识,没有双手的人难以完成这两件事。“用筷子”是“吃饭”的方式。C项eat(吃)符合逻辑。A项make(制作)、B项talk(交谈)、D项work(工作)均无法与chopsticks构成合理搭配。故选C。
第二节
本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了电影《飞驰人生3》在伦敦举行首映式的消息,介绍了该片的主创阵容、剧情梗概,并引用了多位英国观众的观后感,最后补充了该系列前两部的票房成绩及第三部的市场表现。
56. starring 考查非谓语动词(现在分词作定语)。分析句子结构可知,空处与“directed by Han Han”并列,共同作后置定语修饰“the third sequel”。逻辑主语“the third sequel”与动词“star”(由……主演)之间是主动关系(电影由某人主演),因此需用现在分词形式。故填starring。
57. becomes 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,“as he”引导的是时间状语从句,从句中包含两个并列的谓语动词“becomes”和“leads”,由“and”连接,描述张弛同时发生的两个动作。两个动词的时态应保持一致,且主语“he”为第三人称单数,描述电影情节使用一般现在时。故填becomes。
58. tears 考查名词的数。分析句子结构可知,空处与“entertainment”和“excitement”并列,作“bringing”的宾语,需用名词形式。“tear”作名词意为“眼泪”时,通常用复数形式。故填tears。
59. honestly 考查词性转换(形容词转副词)。分析句子结构可知,空处用逗号与主句隔开,作评注性状语,修饰整个句子,表示说话者的态度,需用副词形式。故填honestly。
60. but 考查并列连词。分析句子结构可知,空处连接两个并列分句,前句说看过很多赛车电影,后句说这部电影与众不同,前后之间存在转折关系,需用转折连词。故填but。
61. as 考查介词(固定搭配)。分析句子结构可知,此处考查固定搭配“describe ... as ...”,意为“将……描述为……”。故填as。
62. entertaining 考查词性转换(动词转形容词)。分析句子结构可知,空处与“fun”“serious”并列,在系动词“is”后作表语,描述电影的特征,需用形容词形式;“entertain”的形容词形式为entertaining(有趣的,娱乐的)。故填entertaining。
63. Whether 考查状语从句(让步状语从句)。分析句子结构可知,空处引导一个让步状语从句,与“or”连用,表示“无论……还是……”,需用“whether”引导。位于句首,首字母需大写。故填Whether。
64. were released 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,空处在句中作谓语。主语“The first two installments”(前两部,复数)与“release”(上映)之间为被动关系(电影被上映),且根据时间状语“during the 2019 and 2024 Spring Festival seasons”可知动作发生在过去,因此需用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were released。
65. a 考查冠词。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰“combined 5 billion yuan”,此处“combined”意为“总计的”,修饰名词短语,需用不定冠词表示“一个总计达……的数额”。“combined”以辅音音素/k/开头。故填a。
第四部分 写作
参考范文:
Spencer got out of bed and headed down the hall to see whether Hailey was awake. Seeing the soft glow beneath her door, he gently knocked, his heart pounding with both concern and hope. Hailey was not only awake — she listened with growing excitement as he explained Shumaker’s desperate situation. Hardly had Spencer finished his story when Hailey agreed to give her almost new keyboard, whose 61 full-size keys would fit perfectly on Aubree’s stand. With her enthusiastic consent, Spencer quickly composed a message. Fingers trembling with anticipation, he wrote, “Where do you live? We have a smaller keyboard that we could part with.” Reading the message, Shumaker couldn’t believe how quickly her luck had turned.
The two messaged back and forth, agreeing to meet at a grocery store across the street from Shumaker’s home. Within minutes, the Spencers arrived in the parking lot with the keyboard carefully wrapped and Hailey’s face glowing with anticipation. For Shumaker, relief and gratitude shone in her eyes when she saw the keyboard. Never had she expected that strangers would respond so swiftly and generously. With the instrument gently loaded into Shumaker’s car, a sense of warmth settled over everyone. All the Spencers wanted was a simple photo of a happy Aubree on Christmas morning. And when Christmas finally broke, Aubree’s delighted laughter filled the room as she discovered the surprise, her joy shining brighter than the Christmas tree itself.
