Recently, the debate over teaching methods has sparked heated discussion. Personally, I am a strong advocate for traditional blackboard teaching. Beyond being eye-friendly, the blackboard offers unmatched educational value. Only by following the teacher’s step-by-step explanation can we fully grasp the logical chain of complex knowledge. Furthermore, unlike pre-set slides(幻灯片), blackboard writing is highly flexible, allowing teachers to adjust content instantly based on feedback. This dynamic interaction keeps us engaged in critical thinking rather than passively watching a screen. In conclusion, returning to the blackboard is not just about eye care, but a return to thoughtful and human-centered education. 参考范文二 Blackboard vs. Multimedia: Which Do I Prefer? With the debate over teaching methods heating up, I firmly stand on the side of multimedia teaching. The primary advantage is that multimedia tools like animated videos transform complex theories into vivid scenes, making abstract knowledge readily accessible. Besides, immersive activities like virtual experiments encourage active involvement, which keeps students fully engaged. Moreover, digital slides spare teachers from blackboard writing, allowing more knowledge to be conveyed and our horizons broadened in limited class time. All in all, multimedia teaching is far more than a tool. It serves as the engine driving us toward a smarter, more efficient future of learning. 【读后续写参考范文】 Soon, the auctioneer lifted the first bag of cookies, and the auction began. The air was filled with excitement as parents and kids called out bids eagerly, and those beautifully shaped cookies quickly got higher and higher offers. One by one, all the perfect ones were sold, until the auctioneer picked up our bag—the messiest one at the end of the table. “Who’d like to bid on this batch?” he asked. My heart racing, I held my breath, waiting for quiet giggles from the crowd. Much to my surprise, however, Mike suddenly raised his hand and shouted ‌“Eight dollars!” loudly, his voice clear and proud across the room. Holding up the eight dollars, my nine-year-old smiled as if the cookies were treasures. The auctioneer paused, glanced around, and asked again, “Any higher bids? Eight dollars once! Eight dollars twice! Eight dollars three times!” With a crisp hammer tap, he declared, “Sold to the young gentleman!” Mike walked briskly to claim our cookies, his small face glowing with pride. On the way home, he bit into one uneven cookie and said it was the most delicious ever. It suddenly dawned on me that, for Mike, what mattered wasn’t how perfect the cookies looked, but the precious time we spent side by side with each other, a treasure no perfect cookie could replace. 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C 27. D 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者与患有智力障碍的叔叔乔治之间通过日常电话交流建立起的深厚情感，以及这些电话在作者困难时期给予的安慰和支持。 【24题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段“About once an hour from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., he calls me 10 times a day, without fail, 365 days a year.(从早上7点到晚上7点，他大约每小时给我打一次电话，一天10次，一年365天，从不间断。)”可知，乔治叔叔每天都定期打电话。故选A。 【25题详解】推理判断题。根据倒数第五段““You know something, Tommy,” he’ll say. “I’m just calling to say you’re the best guy I know.”(“你知道吗，汤米，”他会说，“我打电话只是想告诉你，你是我认识的最棒的人。”)”和倒数第四段““So are you,” I reply. “The two of us!”(“你也是，”我回答，“我们俩！”)”可知，作者和乔治叔叔的电话交谈中一致的是，他们总是以说彼此的好话结束。故选B。 【26题详解】细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“At my most stressed, angry and sad — during painful breakups and professional setbacks — that phone call nevertheless rolls in, allowing me to escape reality for a bit and just laugh and act like a kid again.(在我最紧张、最愤怒、最悲伤的时候——在痛苦的分手和职业挫折中——那个电话还是打了进来，让我暂时逃离现实，像孩子一样欢笑和行动。)”可知，作者特别珍惜在困难时期的电话，因为这些电话能让他暂时逃离现实。故选C。 【27题详解】推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是根据最后一段“It’s an act of love that saves me, just a little bit, every single day.(这是一种爱的行为，每天都能给我一点点的拯救。)”可知，文章主要讲述了作者与患有智力障碍的叔叔乔治之间通过日常电话交流建立起的深厚情感，以及这些电话在作者困难时期给予的安慰和支持，从而传达了“一个简单的爱的行为可以在生活中提供稳定的安慰”这一信息。故选D。 C篇【导语】文章探讨艺术原创本质，主张创作真实源于内心初衷。 【28题详解】推理判断题。根据第二段中“Nevertheless, I cannot genuinely classify any piece of my output as truly original, since every image ultimately represents a synthesized fusion of previous visual influences, external conceptual inputs from others, and a diverse range of personal life experiences. (然而，我无法真正将我任何一件作品归类为真正的原创，因为每张图像最终都代表了先前视觉影响、他人外部概念输入以及各种个人生活经验的综合融合。)”可知，作者承认自己的作品融合了各类影响因素。 【29题详解】词句猜测题。根据第三段中“If we go by the principle that all ideas are a hodgepodge of other ideas, a natural question arises. (如果我们遵循所有想法都是其他想法的hodgepodge这一原则，一个自然的问题就出现了。)”，结合下文“The first original thought must have been by the first man. Ever since, it has all been one big fake. (第一个原创想法一定是第一个人的。自那以后，一切都成了一个大的仿制品。)”以及第四段中“The approach to originality that I suggest is that all ideas are a byproduct of other ideas, and what truly matters is the intention you hold behind those ideas. (我提出的关于原创性的方法是：所有想法都是其他想法的副产品，真正重要的是你在这些想法背后所持有的意图。)”可知，作者认为所有的想法都是其他想法的副产品，是其他想法的混合，“hodgepodge”意为“混合物、大杂烩”，与mixture同义。 【30题详解】解析：作者举时尚品牌每年推出新品的例子，是为了说明艺术领域擅长旧元素新表达，从已有想法中创造出新的东西。 【31题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段中“The approach to originality that I suggest is that all ideas are a byproduct of other ideas, and what truly matters is the intention you hold behind those ideas. (我提出的关于原创性的方法是：所有想法都是其他想法的副产品，真正重要的是你在这些想法背后所持有的意图。)”以及“But, if your intention is to copy Rodin’s work because it made him a famous sculptor, your work will have very little meaning and authenticity.( 但是，如果你的意图是复制罗丹的作品，因为那让他成为了著名的雕塑家，那么你的作品将几乎没有意义和真实性。)”可知，作者认为真实性是由意图决定的。 D篇[导语]文章主要介绍了海洋中的生物荧光现象及绿色荧光蛋白在科学领域的应用以及基于生物荧光的可持续技术发展，最后指出海洋中仍有许多关于生物荧光的未解之谜。 32。细节理解题。根据第二段"Unlike bioluminescence,which produces light through chemical reactions,bio-fluorescence depends on absorbing light from outside to glow.(与通过化学反应产生光的生物发光不同，生物荧光依赖于吸收外界的光来发光。)"可知，生物荧光需要外部光源才能发光，这是它与生物发光的核心区别。 33。推理判断题。根据第三段"Without this interaction,coral bleaching(白化)a major threat to coral ecosystems would speed up.(如果没有这种相互作用，珊瑚白化珊瑚生态系统面临的一个重大威胁将会加速。)"可知，第三段以珊瑚礁为例，说明了珊瑚的生物荧光能减缓白化速度：根据第四段"When threatened by hunters, it releases a cloud of bio-fluorescent ink. The sudden burst of light confuses attackers, buying the squid precious seconds to escape.(当受到猎人的威胁时，它会释放出一团生物荧光墨汁。突然迸发的亮光会迷惑攻击者，为乌贼争取宝贵的几秒钟时间来逃跑。)"可知，第四段以短尾乌贼为例，介绍了它的生物荧光墨水能迷惑捕食者。结合第二段"This natural light show is not just for beauty; it serves critical survival functions.(这种自然的灯光秀不仅仅是为了美观；它还具有重要的生存功能。)"可知，这两个例子均是为了说明生物荧光的生存功能。 34。细节理解题。根据第五段"Researchers realized GFP could be used to mark specific cells, making invisible processes visible.Today,it lights up nerve cells in brain studies,helping map out connections in diseases like Alzheimer's.(研究人员意识到绿色荧光蛋白可以用来标记特定细胞，使看不见的过程变得可见。如今，它在大脑研究中照亮神经细胞，帮助绘制阿尔茨海默病等疾病中的神经连接。)"可知，GFP在科学中的主要用途是标记细胞使其可视化，便于观察研究。 35。主旨大意题。根据第一段"Beneath the ocean's surface lies a secret world of light.(海洋表面之下隐藏着一个秘密的光世界)"和最后一段"each expedition reveals new players in this beautiful underwater light show"(每次探险都揭示了这场美丽的水下灯光秀中的新角色)"及文章内容可知，全文围绕"生物荧光"展开，介绍了其原理，生存功能，科学应用和未解之谜，故"生物荧光：大自然隐藏的灯光秀"最能概括全文内容。 七选五【导语】文章主要介绍了不良体态不仅会造成身体不适，还会影响呼吸、情绪与精力，说明了良好体态的多重益处，解释了标准体态的要求，并给出简单可行的日常改善方法。 【36题详解】根据前文“I caught sight of myself in a cafe window the other day, bent over my phone, with my head down and shoulders tense near my ears.(前几天，我在咖啡馆的窗户里看到自己低头盯着手机、肩膀紧绷,几乎贴到耳朵附近的样子。)” 以及后文“And I began to wonder how good it could feel to shake it off.(我开始想，摆脱这种状态会有多舒服。)” 可知，作者看到自己的姿态，意识到不良体态已悄悄渗入生活，并想摆脱。选项F“That’s when I realized how easily bad posture slips into our daily life.(就在那时，我意识到不良体态很容易不知不觉进入我们的日常生活。)” 贴合上下文语境。 【37题详解】根据前文“But over time, little things can become habits. And those little habits?(但久而久之，小事就会变成习惯。而那些小习惯呢？)” 以及后文“Poor posture does more than cause muscle aches.(不良体态带来的影响不止肌肉酸痛。)”可知，此处承接提问，讲述小习惯对身体的长久负面影响。选项G“They can have a lasting impact on our bodies in ways we might not realize.(它们会以我们察觉不到的方式，对身体产生持久的影响。)” 衔接自然。 【38题详解】根据前文“When we bend forward, our chest becomes less open, which limits oxygen intake and often leads to shallow breathing.(当我们弯腰驼背时，胸腔无法完全舒展，会限制摄氧量，造成浅呼吸。)” 可知，空前讲述不良体态对呼吸的影响，空处继续延伸其带来的身心副作用。选项E“Over time, this can make you feel tired, anxious or emotionally low.(久而久之，这会让人疲惫、焦虑或是情绪低落。)” 承接前文负面影响，逻辑连贯。 【39题详解】根据后文“Essentially, good posture means keeping your body in the right position whether you are standing, walking, or sitting.(本质上，良好体态就是无论站立、行走还是坐姿，都保持身体处于正确位置。)” 可知，后文在具体解释良好体态的标准，空处应提出相关问题以引出下文解释。选项A“So what does good posture actually look like?(那么，良好的体态究竟是什么样子的？)” 起到引出下文的作用。 【40题详解】根据后文“Because little changes add up, experts recommend a few simple but effective ways to improve it.(因为微小的改变日积月累就能见效，专家推荐了一些简单有效的改善方法。)” 可知，本段围绕体态改善展开，空处总领段落，衔接体态与日常行为，引出改进措施。选项B“Posture is a habit that affects almost everything you do.(体态是一种习惯，几乎影响你所做的一切。)” 契合段落开头总起的作用。 完型填空解析： 41 B. bottle 一个被海草覆盖的瓶子在海浪中翻滚 A. note：纸条，是瓶子里的东西。 42 A. figure out 她试图理解这条信息 D. reply to：回复，此时还没破译纸条上的内容。 43 D. possible 生活教会我一切皆有可能，对应后文Boyero原话“Life has taught me all is possible”. 44 C. led 这些细节引导Charles找到了Erika Boyero A. tied：联系，搭配错误，应为tie sb. to sth.. 45 A. sealed 把纸条封在空瓶子里 C. cast：投掷，应是封好后再扔。 46 B. unexpected 她的父亲给了她一个意外的消息。 47 C. clicked 但最终她突然明白了——是那些瓶子 A. echoed：回响，不符合语境。 48 A. destiny 当命运让你遇到生命中必须遇见的人。 49 B. friendship 这个神秘的海洋信息很快发展成了一段远距离友谊 D. relationship：关系，语义过宽。 50 D. sharing 在接下来的25年里，她们保持联系，分享生活的更新。 51 C. natural Charles说她们的重逢感觉很自然 A. strange：奇怪的，反向干扰。 52 A. embraced 她一走进航站楼，两人就拥抱在一起，像“失散多年的朋友”。 53 B. washed 她们一起沿着多年前瓶子被冲上岸的同一片海滩散步。 54 C. originally Boyero说早期的翻译和她最初写的内容相差不远。 55 D. drifting 多亏了一个漂流过海洋的瓶子，这些话最终连接了两个相隔半个世界的人。 【导语】文章主要讲述了水在中国文化、哲学、艺术及建筑中的象征意义及作用。 【56题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：在中国文化中，水是代表自然与和谐的基本象征，深深融入哲学与神话之中。本空在句中作状语，且involve与逻辑主语water之间是被动关系，用过去分词involved。 【57题详解】考查冠词。句意：它是古代思想家和平的源泉，在中国艺术和建筑中被认为是具有审美力量的，将人类世界与自然世界融为一体。此处表示泛指“一个和平的源泉”，source以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a。 【58题详解】考查副词。句意：中国哲学，特别是道家，将水视为宇宙和社会秩序的典范。本空在句中修饰Daoism，作状语，用副词particularly“特别地，尤其”。 【59题详解】考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意：道家形成于公元前6世纪，认为人类应该与自然的“道”——生命的自然流动——和谐相处。句子描述的一般事实，用一般现在时，主语Daoism为第三人称单数，谓语用第三人称单数believes。 【60题详解】考查名词性从句。句意：《道德经》强调水的美德，说明水的品质如何在很大程度上塑造和指导社会生活和个人行为的原则。本空引导宾语从句，在从句中作状语，表示“如何”，用连接副词how。 【61题详解】考查名词。句意：在中国艺术中，“山水”的景观概念结合了山——代表静止，和水——代表变化，象征着自然中短暂与连续的和谐。本空在句中作representing的宾语，用名词stillness“静止”。 【62题详解】考查介词。句意：在中国艺术中，“山水”的景观概念结合了山——代表静止，和水——代表变化，象征着自然中短暂与连续的和谐。between...and...是固定短语，意为“在……和……之间”。 【63题】考查定语从句。句意：例如宏村这样的中国古代建筑，融入契合牛躯体轮廓的水系，展现人与自然的平衡。本空引导定语从句，修饰先行词water systems，关系词代替先行词在从句中作主语，指物，用关系代词which或that。 【64题详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：中国古代建筑，如宏村，整合了反映牛解剖结构的水系统，展示了人与自然的平衡。本空在句中作结果状语，表示前面整合水系统所导致的结果，用现在分词displaying，表示自然而然的结果。 【65题详解】考查形容词。句意：水展示了我们与自然的联系，并提醒我们注意环境危机，如河流污染。本空在句中修饰名词crises，用形容词environmental“环境的”，作定语。 听力原文： 1.

C【原文】M: Susan, I was really impressed by your presentation the other day. Have you thought about expanding on it? W: Sure, I’d love to. M: You see, the university has a pool of money to fund research candidates like you. Why not consider applying for it? 6. A 7. C【原文】M: Hello, I hope I’m not interrupting your work. I just moved in, and I was attracted by the beautiful flowers in your garden. W: Oh, thank you. I’m taking care of these roses.

M: Oh, to put your mind at ease, it covers both. Now, don’t leave without taking the tickets for tomorrow’s theater visit.

While water power is a clean energy source provided by rain and snow, it also has several drawbacks. Large dams can damage river ecosystems and surrounding communities, harming wildlife and displacing residents. Even water power at full capacity bears its own emission problems, as rotting organic materials in reservoirs releases methane (甲烷). Dams aren’t the only way to use water for power: Tidal and wave energy projects around the world aim to capture the ocean’s natural rhythms. The potential marine energy is great. Wind Power Wind turbines (涡轮机) are growing around the globe, and China, the U.S., and Germany are the leading wind energy producers. Some people may object to how wind turbines look on the horizon (地平线) and how they sound, but wind energy, whose prices are declining, is proving too valuable a resource to deny. Another problem with wind turbines is that they’re a danger for birds and bats, killing hundreds of thousands of them annually. Therefore, engineers are working on solutions to making them safer for flying wildlife. Solar Power From home rooftops to farms, solar power is reshaping energy markets around the world. In addition to solar panels, which change the sun’s light to electricity, concentrating solar power (CSP) plants use mirrors to concentrate the sun’s heat, getting thermal energy. Solar thermal energy is also being used worldwide for hot water, heating, and cooling. China, Japan, and the U.S. are leading the solar transformation, but it still has a long way to go. 21. Which country is the leading producer of all the three renewable energy sources? A. China. B. Japan. C. Germany. D. Russia. 22. What may reduce the disadvantages of water power? A. Gathering organic material in reservoirs. B. Employing alternative water sources. C. Moving residents away from dams. D. Using water power at full capacity. 23. What is a problem with the wind turbines? A. They cost too much. B. They occupy much space. C. They cause noise pollution. D. They affect engineers’ health. B My uncle George and I have always shared a special bond. When I was around 5 years old, I asked my parents what was wrong with him. Anyway, they said nothing was ‘wrong’ with him exactly, but that Uncle George was mentally disabled. About once an hour from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., he calls me 10 times a day, without fail, 365 days a year. Though I love him quite a bit, I answer maybe two of those phone calls a day. Our phone calls always follow the same structure, using one of three fantasy realities from George’s imagination. In one, he’s my dad and I’m his son. In another, he’s Major Charles Winchester, and I’m Captain B. J. Hunnicutt, reporting for duty. In the last, we’re both lifeguards, strategizing the rescue of a drowning person. When the phone rings, I always say “Hello?” as if I don’t know who is calling. “It’s your dad, George!” Or, “It’s Major Winchester!” Or, “This is Tower 1. Tower 2, can you read me?” We go back and forth in character for about a minute and a half, only breaking the bit to laugh. Then he’ll go quiet. “You know something, Tommy,” he’ll say. “I’m just calling to say you’re the best guy I know.” “So are you,” I reply. “The two of us!” This conversation has been repeated multiple times a day for years now. No matter what’s going on in the world, the consistency of these calls is something I can count on. At my most stressed, angry and sad — during painful breakups and professional setbacks — that phone call nevertheless rolls in, allowing me to escape reality for a bit and just laugh and act like a kid again. Because George doesn’t understand things at an adult level, it’s impossible for him to truly comprehend whether I’m having a good or bad day. Instead, he’s able to bring me the same energy, the same love and acceptance, no matter what. It’s an incredible gift. Because I know that even at my worst, when I feel like I’m drowning, I can count on Uncle George, up there in Tower 1, to call down and tell me I’m the best guy he knows. It’s an act of love that saves me, just a little bit, every single day. 24. Which of the following is true about Uncle George? A. He calls on a regular basis every day. B. He pretends to be different from others. C. He is very sensitive to outside criticism. D. He enjoys playing tricks on his nephew. 25. What is consistent about the phone conversations between the author and Uncle George? A. The author always begins with greeting his uncle by name. B. They always end by saying kind words about each other. C. They often discuss real-world news and current events. D. Uncle George always pretends not to know the author. 26. Why does the author value the calls especially during difficult times? A. He feels truly understood and comforted by his uncle. B. Uncle George can help solve his real-world problems. C. The calls allow him to take a short break from reality. D. It makes him very proud to be relied on by his family. 27. What message does the author want to convey through the passage? A. People with disabilities can understand others better than most adults do. B. Frequent phone calls are the best way to keep relationships strong. C. Role-play helps strengthen family bonds across generations. D. A simple act of love can provide steady comfort in life. C Artists enjoy calling their work “original”. For good reason too, as artists, we want to distinguish ourselves and convey a genuine message to the world. But there are hardly any truly original ideas in the art world. Everything has been invented, reinvented, and re-reinvented over again. Recently, I have been reflecting on how I get ideas for my work as a professional photographer. Some of my images can be traced back directly to what inspired them, while some others are more “unique”. Nevertheless, I cannot genuinely classify any piece of my output as truly original, since every image ultimately represents a synthesized fusion of previous visual influences, external conceptual inputs from others, and a diverse range of personal life experiences. This personal realization prompts a deeper and more universal inquiry into the nature of originality. If we go by the principle that all ideas are a hodgepodge of other ideas, a natural question arises. Is it possible to trace back and find the original ideas? The first original thought must have been by the first man. Ever since, it has all been one big fake. This definition will take us exactly nowhere, and the debate will end right here. So, let’s stop hunting for an original idea, whatever it may mean. Just think how some fashion brands manage to produce two new couture collections each year. Fashion has mastered the art of showing old as new, and new as old. The approach to originality that I suggest is that all ideas are a byproduct of other ideas, and what truly matters is the intention you hold behind those ideas. If you take inspiration from Rodin’s work and see people in a similarly monumental way, there is meaning in the work and you are creating something authentic, something that is authentic and true to you. But, if your intention is to copy Rodin’s work because it made him a famous sculptor, your work will have very little meaning and authenticity. The point I am trying to make about authenticity is that it doesn’t have to be authentic to anybody else but you. If we take out the obvious instances where one artist copied another artist to make money off the idea, we are left with a world of trillions of thoughts and ideas, each ready to inspire you to create something that is authentic to you, something that speaks to you. Even if you take pictures only because they “look beautiful”, they already mean something to you: they mean beauty. 28. What can be inferred about the writer’s photographing experience? A.

What does the underlined word “hodgepodge” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Mixture. B. Share. C. Revision. D. Repetition. 30. Why does the author mention fashion brands in Paragraph 3 ? A. To prove fashion design is more creative than photography. B. To show people can create new things from old ideas. C. To criticize fashion for copying too many designs. D. To explain how to find the first original idea. 31. What might the author agree with? A. Authenticity stems from originality. B. There is no such thing as authenticity. C. Authenticity is defined by intentions. D. Originality rests on objective standards. D Beneath the ocean’s surface lies a secret world of light. While bioluminescence(生物发光) — the ability of living things to produce their own light—has long interested scientists, a lesser-known phenomenon called bio-fluorescence(生物荧光)is now stealing the spotlight. Bio-fluorescence occurs when sea animals absorb light at one wavelength and send it out at another, creating vivid lights in colors like green, red, or orange. Unlike bioluminescence, which produces light through chemical reactions, bio-fluorescence depends on absorbing light from outside to glow. This natural light show is not just for beauty; it serves critical survival functions. In the coral reefs(珊瑚礁)of the Pacific, researchers observed corals sending out green under blue light. “It’s a dance of partnership guided by light,” explains marine biologist Dr. Kenji Nakamura. Without this interaction, coral bleaching(白化) — a major threat to coral ecosystems—would speed up. Another wonder comes from the Hawaiian bobtail squid(短尾乌贼). When threatened by hunters, it releases a cloud of bio-fluorescent ink. The sudden burst of light confuses attackers, buying the squid precious seconds to escape. Dr. Emily Carter who led the study notes, “This is evolution’s version of a smoke screen — but far more shining.” The discovery of GFP —green fluorescent protein (绿色荧光蛋白) —in jellyfish in 1962 revolutionized science. Researchers realized GFP could be used to mark specific cells, making invisible processes visible. Today, it lights up nerve cells in brain studies, helping map out connections in diseases like Alzheimer's. “GFP is a window into the brain's hidden workings,” says brain scientist Dr.Maria Gonzalez. Scientists are now copying bio-fluorescence to develop sustainable technologies. For example, fluorescent proteins inspire energy-efficient LED lighting, and bio-fluorescent markers could improve medical imaging. “Nature’s designs are blueprints for human innovation,” says materials scientist Dr. Raj Patel. Yet mysteries remain. Over 200 species of bio-fluorescent fish were recently discovered, their purposes still unclear. As submarines dive deeper, each expedition reveals new players in this beautiful underwater light show, proving that the ocean’s depths still guard ancient secrets. 32.How is bio-fluorescence different from bioluminescence? A. It is drawing less attention. B. It produces brighter lights. C. It needs an outside light source. D. It makes better use of chemical reactions. 33.What can we learn about the examples in paragraphs 3 and 4? A. They both describe light-based hunting methods. B.They both explain the formation of a close partnership. C.They both highlight potential threats to the environment. D.They both show survival functions of bio-fluorescence. 34.What is the main use of GFP in science? A.To protect corals from bleaching. B. To create more efficient LED lights. C.To treat the disease of Alzheimer’s. D. To visualize cells for better observation. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Bio-fluorescence: Nature’s Hidden Light Show B. Bio-fluorescence: Nature’s Display of Beauty C. Bioluminescence: Ocean’s Ancient Magic Power D. Bioluminescence: Colourful Window into Ocean Secret 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。 I caught sight of myself in a cafe window the other day, bent over my phone, with my head down and shoulders tense near my ears. ____36____ And I began to wonder how good it could feel to shake it off. Small, everyday habits can lead to bad posture (体态). Whether we are using our phones on the sofa or working at the kitchen table, we may bend over or sit in one place for too long without noticing it. But over time, little things can become habits. And those little habits? ____37____ Poor posture does more than cause muscle aches. It can also affect your breathing, mood, and energy levels. When we bend forward, our chest becomes less open, which limits oxygen intake and often leads to shallow breathing. ____38____ That is why good posture matters. It benefits us physically, mentally, and emotionally. It can help reduce pain, improve breathing, and enhance digestion, while also boosting energy levels and helping us sleep better. But there’s a gap between knowing posture is good and actually making it a habit. ____39____ Essentially, good posture means keeping your body in the right position whether you are standing, walking, or sitting. This means keeping your head, shoulders, and hips in line, relaxing your shoulders, engaging your core, and avoiding unnecessary tension. ____40____ Because little changes add up, experts recommend a few simple but effective ways to improve it. When sitting at your desk, keep your feet flat on the floor, support your lower back, and relax your shoulders. When using your phone, bring the screen up to eye level instead of bending your neck down. A. So what does good posture actually look like? B. Posture is a habit that affects almost everything you do. C. Why do people usually need to maintain good posture? D. It is often caused by the way we sit, stand, and use our phones. E. Over time, this can make you feel tired, anxious or emotionally low. F. That’s when I realized how easily bad posture slips into our daily life. G. They can have a lasting impact on our bodies in ways we might not realize. 第3部分 语言知识运用（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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Back in 2001, Diane Charles was taking a morning walk along a beach when something unusual caught her eye. A(n) 41 covered in seagrass was rolling in on the waves. Curious, she picked it up and found a note inside, written in Spanish. With help from locals, she tried to 42 the message. Eventually, a scholar helped decode it, which roughly read, “Life has taught me all is 43 , and that receiving love and success is second to this.” The most important clues were a name, a Colombian address, and a fax number. These details 44 Charles to Erika Boyero, a woman from Colombia who had thrown the bottle into the sea four years earlier on a cruise ship near Norway. In 1997, looking for something fun to do, Boyero wrote several notes, 45 them in empty bottles, and threw them overboard. Then she forgot all about them. Years later, her father surprised her with 46 news. “Hey, you received a fax from Australia,” he told her. Boyero was stunned, but eventually it 47 —the bottles. “There are billions of people in the world,” she said. “... and when 48 shows a person you have to meet in this life... it is beautiful.” What started as a mysterious ocean message soon turned into a long-distance 49 . For the next 25 years, Charles and Boyero stayed in touch, 50 life updates. Recently, Boyero called Charles with an idea: she wanted to fly to Tasmania so they could finally meet in person. When Boyero arrived, Charles said their reunion felt 51 . Once she walked into the terminal, the two 52 like “long lost friends”. The following morning, they walked together along the same beach where the bottle had been 53 ashore years ago. Looking back, Boyero says the early translation of her message wasn’t far from what she 54 wrote. “Life has taught me all is possible,” she said. “I wish you good fortune wherever you are.” And thanks to a bottle 55 across the ocean, those words ended up connecting two people half a world apart. 41.A. note B. bottle C. ship D. message 42.A. figure out B. search for C. pass down D. reply to 43.A. simple B. valuable C. important D. possible 44.A. tied B. introduced C. led D. limited 45.A. sealed B. gathered C. cast D. hid 46.A. terrific B. unexpected C. unpleasant D. terrible 47.A.echoed B. worked C. clicked D. happened 48.A. destiny B. nature C. condition D. weather 49.A. journey B. friendship C. business D. relationship 50.A. celebrating B. recalling C. comparing D. sharing 51.A. strange B. formal C. natural D. awkward 52.A. embraced B. winked C. nodded D. wept 53.A. thrown B. washed C. pulled D. stuck 54.A. simply B. casually C. originally D. accidentally 55.A. sinking B. breaking C. flying D. drifting 第二节(共10小题; 每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Water plays a crucial role in shaping self-identity and our relationship with the environment.

Last summer, when I finally had a day off, Mike told me the school would be hosting a cookie auction (拍卖). Each student was supposed to bake cookies with their father. I’d never baked cookies, so we followed the instructions carefully. We opened a packet of instant cookie mix, added the required ingredients, shaped the dough (面团) into small rounds, and confidently placed them on a baking tray in the oven. Taking them out after fifteen minutes, I was surprised that the cookies were not the golden and perfectly shaped ones I’d seen in ads. In fact, some were unevenly baked, while others had spread too much on the tray. Mike, however, cherished this opportunity to work with me and was so happy that he didn’t seem to notice the problem. After letting them cool, we tried decorating the cookies with icing (糖霜). As a finishing touch, I sprinkled (撒) a few chocolate chips on top, hoping to add a bit of chocolate flavor to the cookies that didn’t look very appetizing. Mike gave me a proud grin; he thought they looked good. By then, we were already running late. When we finally hurried to the auction, I was stunned. A long table was filled with a fantastic array of exquisitely designed cookies. In contrast, ours looked embarrassing; some were misshapen, the icing had melted, and the chocolate chips were scattered everywhere. I felt a flush coming to my face, but Mike didn’t seem to be ashamed of our creation. He solemnly placed our cookies at the end of the table. I gave Mike eight dollars, telling him to bid (出价) on the cookies he liked, hoping he would get some nicely made ones to make up for the embarrassment our cookies might bring him. 注意： 1. 写作词数应为150个左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Soon, the auctioneer lifted the first bag of cookies, and the auction began. Holding up the eight dollars, my nine-year-old smiled as if the cookies were treasures. 1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
