Today, i'd like to share some practical ways to save water in our daily lives. In fact, we have all been told not to leave the water running while brushing our teeth or washing our faces. Another good habit is taking shorter showers every minute counts. When IT comes to doing the dishes using the dish, water is much more efficient than washing the dishes by hand, but only if you fill IT up, if you use the dishwasher for only a few plates or glasses, wasting more water, does your car need a wash. Get down to lumps on college this weekend where they are having a charity car wash. The event will take place at the college parking lot, where the students will be washing cars for a good cause. That's on saturday, the fourth from eight in the morning till eight in the evening. And the Prices are pretty good too. Just ten dollars for the outside of your car and eight dollars for the inside. If you want the full service outside and inside IT will cost you only fifteen dollars. That's not too bad. But the main thing is that all of the money raised will go to the homeless people in the area. So if your car is dirty, you know where to take IT this weekend. Good morning, everyone.

Chan,the founder of branding agency Warm Robots,is also an author,a content creator,and a frequent speaker..Still,,she describes herself as an introvert(性格内向者)at heart.Earlier in her career, Chan worked completely behind the scenes in various marketing and social media roles.In 2017,she began posting short videos about pop culture branding.She posted over 800 daily videos and quickly attracted many followers. Chan writes about how introverts can level up their careers in her book Personal Branding for Introverts."Developing a strong personal brand allows you to shape the story that other people are telling about you,"Chan says. Many introverts have said to Chan,"I'm so terrified of growing my personal brand because I don't want to put myself out there."Chan herself used to feel the same way.To reduce her social anxiety,she challenged herself to speak with a new person at her local coffee shop each day for a month."If you're nervous about reaching out to professional connections,send one networking email a month.If you're trying to grow an online presence,post one update a week,"Chan says. Keep in mind that your personal brand doesn't just exist online.Participating in social events like hobby groups can also contribute to building your brand."Your unique interests help set you apart,and you might be surprised at the opportunities that arise,"Chan says."A personal brand is never created alone.Being involved in groups that interest you,even if they're not directly related to your career, helps you form good relationships with others.People get to know you,trust you,and may share advice or opportunities.” Imagine your personal brand is the hub(轮毂)of a wheel..“The spokes(轮辐)are all the things you do-volunteering,leaming new skills,or posting videos.When each spoke connects firmly to the hub,your wheel rolls smoothly,carrying you farther on your path,"Chan says. 24.What change did Chan make in career in 2017? A.She began coming into the public view. B.She took a long break from creating content. C.She started selling products on social media D.She focused on managing her advertising agency 25.What does Chan advise introverts to do? A.Ask experts for advice. B.Change their personality. C.Take consistent small steps. D.Prioritize face-to-face talks 第5页共12页 26.Why does Chan recommend participating in offline activities? A.To feel less lonely. B.To gain more followers. C.To look more professional. D.To better build a personal brand. 27.What does Chan stress through the wheel metaphor? A.Confidence is vital for success. B.Personal brand should be genuine. C.Every small action makes a difference. D.Interests and hobbies inspire your brand. C Most young people today have never picked a tomato off a vine ()collected eggs from a chicken cage,or understood the work that goes into growing a single head of cabbage.This disconnection from food sources creates a broader disconnection from the environment and the systems that sustain us.Sustainable agriculture education fills this gap by giving students direct experience with how food is grown and harvested. When the youth engage with farming and gardening,they develop a deeper appreciation for the resources required to produce food.They witness the first-hand relationship between healthy soil,clean water,and nutritious crops.They learn that food production doesn't happen in isolation but as part of complex ecosystems involving insects,microorganisms,weather patterns,and human labor. Beyond environmental awareness,students also learn patience as they wait for seeds to come up and plants to mature.They develop problem-solving abilities when facing challenges such as pests, drought,and unexpected weather.They practice responsibility through regular care and maintenance of plants and animals.They experience how individual contributions combine to create collective success. Many students also discover they enjoy and excel at hands-on work,building confidence that might not emerge in traditional academic settings. When students work with living systems,they witness cause-and-effect relationships that might otherwise remain abstract.Water conservation becomes personal when students must regularly irrigate their plants and can observe the consequences of too much or too little water.Installing rainwater collectors,learning about drip irrigation,or comparing the water needs of different crops can make resource management tangible.Students begin thinking critically about water use,not just in the garden but in their broader lives. Simply begin by assessing your available space and resources.A sunny corner of a schoolyard,a vacant lot,or even containers can become productive growing spaces.The key is to start with manageable projects that can succeed.Growing easy,fast-maturing crops gives students quick wins and keeps up enthusiasm while they learn fundamental skills. 第6页共12页 28.What problem can sustainable agriculture education address? A.The urgent threat posed by climate change. B.The growing challenges of ensuring food security. C.Students'ignorance of environmental conservation. D.Students'lack of direct engagement with farming. 29.How does sustainable agriculture education benefit students? A.By improving their physical strength. B.By boosting their academic performance. C.By maximizing their personal contributions. D.By developing their qualities and capabilities 30.What does"tangible"underlined in paragraph 4 mean? A.Available. B.Concrete. C.Flexible. D.Complex. 31.What does the author suggest on agricultural education? A.Finding a sunny farm. B.Buying costly equipment first. C.Waiting for perfect conditions. D.Starting with accessible projects. D Having to find a toilet during long road trips is,now,no longer a pain as Chinese electric vehicle engineers are prepared to roll out a fleet of cars featuring built-in toilets.They're putting a little restroom in your vroom-vroom. Seres,Chinese carmaker specializing in high-end electric vehicles (NEVs)and intelligent technology,has been granted a patent for what it calls an "in-vehicle toilet"that slides under a passenger's seat for mid-trip use.The feature is meant to "satisfy users'toilet needs on long journeys, while camping or while staying in the car,"according to the patent Seres filed with the China National Intellectual Property Administration. And,as if the ability to relieve yourself while on the run isn't cool enough,the cammakers reportedly plan to equip the loo (to appear with either the push of a button or through voice-activated commands.To limit strong,unpleasant smells,the loo comes with a fan and an exhaust pipe,implemented to channel smells out of the car.Waste is collected in a tank that has to be emptied manually.The toilet also boasts a rotating heating element that evaporates urine (and dries other waste.When not in use,the toilet is hidden beneath the seat,making full use of the space inside a car without requiring more room. 第7页共12页 Seres,based in Chongqing,has not announced an official release of vehicles with the onboard bathroom.It's unclear if cars boasting the luxurious toilets will ever,actually,hit the Chinese electric vehicle market.It's a booming industry with innovators claiming to pump out the trendiest,most futuristic frills(),including everything from the ability to fly down NYC roadways at over 200 MPH to literally flying in the sky. In-vehicle toilets,however,are much more rare,but not totally unprecedented.A 1954 car Rolls-Royce Silver Wraith Limousine,featuring a passenger seat pot by Joseph J Mascuch,sold for $150,000.The brainchild of the inventor from New Jersey makes it possible for travelers in their luxurious rides to finalize deals from the inbuilt telephone before taking a bottle from the gold-plated toilet-cum-champagne cooler under the seat cushion. Now that's taking a leak in luxury. 32.Why does Seres roll out cars with built-in toilets? A.To match car telephones. B.To beat other carmakers. C.To promote intelligent technology. D.To meet users'toilet needs on trips. 33.Which aspects of in-vehicle toilet does Paragraph 3 focus on? A.Price and market. B.Origin and history C.Design and function. D.Brand and competition. 34.Why is Joseph J Mascuch mentioned? A.To promote his latest invention. B.To explain how to make a car toilet. C.To show his fame in the car industry. D.To prove in-vehicle toilets are not novel. 35.What is the best title for the text? A.Futuristic Frills:Built-in Toilets in EVs B.Granted Patent:Groundbreaking revolution C.Flying Vehicles:Amazing Traffic Innovation D.Outdoor Travel:Convenient Camping Equipment 第8页共12页 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余 选项。 Embrace the Monotony For most of my twenties,I couldn't brush my teeth,ride public transit,or take a walk without listening to a podcast or audiobook.36 But since reading All the Beauty in the World (2023),I've been reconsidering my relationship to dull,seemingly empty moments.In the book,Patrick Bringley recounts his decade among the watchful guards of New York's Metropolitan Museum of Art.He stood in the Met's echoic halls for hours on end, day after predictable day.37 Initial craze for the art gave way to boredom,and then, enlightenment.He submitted to the 'turtleish movement of a watchman's time',stopped thinking about how much of his shift was left,and let the hours drift. I think about Bringley's experience when I have to engage in any long,monotonous(单调乏味的) task.38 I resist the urge to fill the time with music or podcasts and strive instead for what Bringley calls a princely detachment ()from time,finding the luxury and slight distinction in the moment. 39 Noticing pattems in the different kinds of Met visitors,Bringley developed an appreciation for artworks that he initially ignored.Hanging up my laundry,I notice patterns in how different articles of clothing tend to wrinkle in the wash.I pay finer attention to the unique composition of facial features on the faces of people I stand in line with.I am learning,I think,to appreciate beauty in the little things. Of course,it requires constant practice to find the peace and richness in these stretches of time.40 But your reward comes,Bringley says,when an hour no longer feels an hour long,and you hardly remember how to be bored. A.Silence,I thought,was a waste of time. B.Moreover,I perceive beauty in the monotony. C.It is not always easy to slow down and stay present. D.But dull moments are actually full of hidden beauty. E.It might be waiting in line or doing household chores. F.Monotonous moments were usually seen as quality time. G.He found his relationship to the work slowly changed over time. 第9页共12页 第三部分语言运用（共两节，满分30分) 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I never imagined a little sheep would become my special companion.Four years ago,a sheep named Merlin came into my life 41.A friend of mine had a lamb she was bottle-feeding,but she couldn't 42 it any more so she asked me if I could take care of it.I had a large grassland and kept horses for 13 years.I needed some help43 the weeds that the horses wouldn't eat and sheep seemed like the best 44 because they'll eat anything.

For me,a Chinese student,I made it a daily must to use chopsticks.When I ate in the school canteen every day,chopsticks helped me enjoy food happily.However,it was just then that the foreign classmates surrounded me immediately,looked at me with curiosity and whispered in confusion:"My goodness,the strange chopsticks !At first,I would smile and briefly tell them how to use chopsticks. But with the thing staying unchanged,the stranger my classmates felt,the more uncomfortable I felt.It was the cultural difference that made it.Eventually,I doubted if I would give up using chopsticks and learn to use a knife and fork instead. Once we had a dinner,everyone sat in the restaurant.I couldn't help reaching out for chopsticks. Mike,who was in the same group,saw this and shouted excitedly,"Look,the strange chopsticks!"As he spoke,he took a pair of chopsticks and awkwardly used them.But before the food was picked up,the chopsticks dropped on the floor.The chaotic laughing exploded while my face was flushed with embarrassment.Eating with my head lowered,I was in low spirits.I came to realize that in their opinion,chopsticks were just a strange tool,and my using chopsticks here simply became a laughing stock ()Nevertheless,I loved chopsticks carrying Chinese traditional culture from the bottom of my heart. As time went by,others kept misunderstanding chopsticks.I smiled casually,but deep down I worried that using them would never be accepted here.And I tried to avoid using chopsticks in public, even learned to use knife and fork in the following days.To my great surprise,the school expected everyone to prepare for the annually-held culture-sharing event.I was at a loss. 注意： 1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 The culture-sharing event was approaching. I was well prepared to share the chopsticks culture in the event. 第12页共12页￠·乙¤ 姓 名 1答题前，考生先将自已的姓名、准考证号填写清楚，并认真 核准条形码上的姓名、准考证号，在规定的位置贴好条形码。 准考证号 2,选择题必须使用2B铅笔填涂，非选择题必须使用签字笔或 意 钢笔答题；字体工整、笔迹清楚。 3.请按题号顺序在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出答题区域 贴条形码区 项书写的答案无效：在试题卷、草稿纸上答题无效。 4.保持卡面清洁，不要折叠、不要弄破。考试结束后，请将答 贴缺考标识 题卡，试题卷一并上交。 选择题填涂样例 正确填涂■ 考生禁填！由监考老师填写。■ 选择题 第一部分 听力 1A][B]C] 6四 1B]C] 11图B C网 16[A][B] 2ABC网 7四 1B] ☒ 12IB团 四 17 B a 3Al [B] 8A 13图 18 4A B C 9[A] B 14四 B 19A B a 5A [B C] 10A B ⊙ 15A B a 20A 第二部分阅读 21AIB☒ D 26A B 31A B D 36A B C D ▣ 22AIBC☒ D 27A] B G D 32[A] 1B] C 37[A] B 23A][BI a 28A D 33四 B D 38A B G 24A][B] C D 29A B 34A a 39 ☑ E E 25A][B] D可 30[AI B ) 35A B] a 可 40A B D G 第三部分语言运用（第一节） 41NB☒ 46A B D 51 B c] D 42A][B] ☒D 47A B 52四 B a D 43AIBC☒D 48I 0B7 ⊙ 可 53AⅫ C D 44AIBC网D 49 [A][B] 54A]B] C 45ABC☒D 50AIBC网 D 55A]B] D 非选择题 第三部分语言运用（第二节） 56. 57 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63 64. 65 第四部分写作（第一节）】 Hello,everyone! 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效 c·乙a1tnt2t B 0,”□ 请在各题目的答题区域内作答，超出黑色矩形边框限定区域的答案无效 Thank you for listening! 第四部分写作（第二节） The culture-sharing event was approaching.

A篇 本文是一篇应用文。文章介绍了适合下课期间的5分钟学习间隙锻炼计划，包括运作方式、 细节及提升效果的正念建议。 21.C。细节理解题。根据表格中的时长信息，Neck Rolls为40秒，Shoulder Rolls也为40 秒，两者时长相同。因此正确答案为C。 22.D。细节理解。文章在“Add Mindfulness”部分指出，通过“adding mindfulness makes it powerful'”可以提升锻炼效果，这些都属于将动作与精神专注(mental focus)相结合。因此正确 答案为D。 23.D。推理判断题。文章第一段明确指出：“This5-minute break routine is all you need to recharge your brain”因此，“Refreshing”是这套5分钟课间活动的准确理解。 B篇 本文是一篇说明文。内向的Goldie Chan是品牌推广公司Warm Robots的创始人，也是作家、 内容创作者。她曾从事幕后工作，但自2017年起，她开始发布流行文化品牌相关短视频，积累 了大量粉丝。她在自己的著作中分享内向者提升职业的方法：通过一些日常的小步骤来助力个人 品牌建设。她将个人品牌比作轮毂，将所有行动比作轮辐，二者结合方能推动发展。 24.A。细节理解题。根据第二段内容可知，2017年Chan的职业变化主要是从幕后工作到发 布短视频吸引关注，故选A项。 25.C。推理判断题。根据第四段内容可知，Chan给内向者的具体建议包括每月发一封社交 邮件、每周发布一次动态等，均为微小且持续的行动，以走出舒适区，故选C项。 26.D。细节理解题。根据第五段内容可知，Chan推荐线下活动的原因是这类活动能帮助更 好地建立个人品牌，故选D项。 第2页共10页 27.C。推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，“轮毂”象征的是个人品牌，“轮辐”象征 每一个小行动，就像所有轮辐都要固定在轮毂上才能让车轮转起来，你的每一个小行动最终都会 强化你的个人品牌，故选C项。 C篇 本文是一篇说明文。文章围绕可持续农业教育展开。如今多数年轻人缺乏农耕体验，与食物 来源和自然环境脱节。通过参与种植劳作，学生能增强对生态系统的理解，培养耐心、责任感、 解决问题的能力，也能将抽象的知识变得具体可感。开展农业教育无需复杂条件，利用校园角落、 空地或容器，从易种植的小项目起步即可。 28.D。细节理解题。第一段指出大多数年轻人从未有过摘西红柿、收鸡蛋等直接农业体验， 这正是可持续农业教育要解决的问题，故选D项。 29.D。推理判断题。文章第三段明确列出学生学到的多种能力：耐心（等待种子发芽）、 解决问题能力（应对害虫、干旱等挑战）、责任心（照顾植物和动物）、团队合作（个人贡献促 成集体成功)以及自信心（在动手工作中建立自信）。故选D项。 30.B。词义猜测题。由上下文可知，实践让原本抽象的资源管理变得“具体可感”，故选B项。 31.D。推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，农业教育应该从评估现有空间和资源开始， 关键是选择可管理且能成功的项目(manageable projects that can succeed),例如种植容易、成熟 快的作物。因此作者的核心建议是“从小型、易上手的项目开始”(Starting wit讪h accessible projects).。故选D项。 D篇 本文是一篇说明文。中国车企赛力斯研发出可收纳的车载厕所并获得专利，但目前这款车载 厕所量产上市时间尚不明确。 32.D。细节理解题。根据文章第二段：The feature is meant to“satisf)users'toilet needs on long journeys,.while camping or while staying in the car”，赛力斯研发车载厕所，目的是满足用户旅途、 露营、驻车时的如厕需求。A、B、C均为偷换概念的干扰项。故选D。 33.C。段落大意。第三段介绍车载马桶操控方式（按键/声控）、除味装置、污物处理系统、 加热烘干功能、收纳隐藏式结构，整体围绕功能特点与空间设计展开：价格市场、起源历史、品 牌竞争均非本段内容。故选C。 34.D。细节理解题。根据第五段句中“In-vehicle toilets,however,are much more rare,but not totally unprecedented.”可知，Joseph J Mascuch is mentioned是举例证明In-vehicle toilets不是史无 前例的。故选D。 第3页共10页 35.A。文章标题题。全文核心围绕中国车企赛力斯获批专利的车载厕所、新能源汽车新增未 来化豪华配置展开。B.第二段Seres,.has been granted a patent for what it calls an“in-vehicle toilet''that slides under a passenger's seat for mid-trip use.提出获得专利，但不是文章主旨，夸大变 革意义：C飞行汽车只是文中次要举例：D露营装备偏离文章“车载新型汽车配置”核心话题， 故选A。 七选五 本文作者从前无法忍受安静与单调，总要用音频填满时光；受一本书的启发，开始放慢节奏、 保持超然，用心留意细微事物。学会拥抱枯燥、单调时光，像乌龟一样生活。 36.A.I couldn't brush my teeth,ride public transit,or take a walk without listening to a podcast or audiobook.作者二十多岁时，刷牙、坐公交、散步等所有碎片时间，都一定要听播客 或有声书。逻辑衔接：说明作者无法接受空闲安静的时刻。A选项：Silence,.I thought,,was a waste of time.(我曾认为，沉默就是浪费时间。)完美承接上文：正因觉得安静无用，所以每时每刻都 要填满声音。排除干扰：F项“单调时刻被视作优质时间”与作者习惯完全相反，直接排除，故 选A。 37.G。空前He stood...halls for hours on end,.day after predictable day..Patrick在大都会艺术博 物馆日复一日站岗，长时间站在空旷大厅里，工作重复枯燥。空后Initial craze for the art gave way to boredom,and then,enlightenment.He submitted to the 'turtleish movement of a watchman's time', 心态从狂热→无聊→顿悟的转变。再到屈从于乌龟一样生活，写出了change的过程，G选项： Then he found his relationship to the work slowly changed.(后来他发现自己和这份工作的关系慢慢 发生了改变。)起到承上启下作用，故选G。 38.E.I think about Bringley's experience when I have to engage in any long,monotonous task 当我要做漫长、单调的任务时，就会想起他的经历。逻辑：空格处需要举例说明哪些是单调琐事。 E选项：It might be waiting in line or doing household chores.(可能是排队等候，或是做家务。) 对应空后.fill the time with music..及后文anging up my laundry(晾衣服)、stand in line(排队)， 前后事例呼应，逻辑连贯，故选E。 39.B。本段承接上段，讲述了我对待单调乏味琐事的态度变化。B选项：Moreover,I perceive beauty in the monotony.(此外，我学会从单调中感知美。)为本段中心主旨句，总领全段内容， 故选B。 40.C。依据it requires constant practice to find the peace and richness想要在枯燥时光中找到平 静与充实，需要长期练习。及下文：But your reward comes..但坚持之后会有回报，不再觉得时间 漫长、不再感到无聊。C选项：It is not always easy to slow down and stay present..(放慢脚步、活 在当下从来都不容易。)完美契合转折逻辑：这件事很难做到，但坚持就有收获，故选C。 第4页共10页 完形填空 本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述作者意外收养小羊Merlin,意外发现小羊拥有极强情绪共情能 力，自发辅助自己开展心理疗愈工作，治愈抑郁症来访者，温暖诠释小动物治愈人心的力量。 41.答案：C.accidentally副词辨析。前文讲述小羊机缘巧合闯入作者生活，并非刻意安排，

When it comes to doing the dishes,using the dishwasher is much more efficient than washing the dishes by hand,but only if you fill it up.If you use the dishwasher for only a few plates or glasses,you will end up wasting more water. Does your car need a wash?Get down to Lumsden College this weekend,where they are having a charity car wash.The event will take place at the college parking lot,where the students will be washing cars for a good cause-that's on Saturday,the 4th,from eight in the morning till eight in the evening. And the prices are pretty good,too-just ten dollars for the outside of your car and eight dollars for the inside.If you want the full service,outside and inside,it will cost you only fifteen dollars.That's not too bad.But the main thing is that all the money raised will go to the homeless people in the area.So if your car is dirty,you know where to take it this weekend. 第10页共10页
