B Every Sunday afternoon, twelve-year-old Pedro walks three blocks to the home of Mrs. Chen, an 80-year-old widow who lives alone. He doesn’t go there to play video games or watch television. He goes there to read. It started six months ago. Pedro’s school started a “Community Connections” program, asking students to spend one hour each week with an elderly neighbor. Pedro was nervous at first. What would he talk about with someone so old? But his mother encouraged him to try. The first time Pedro knocked on Mrs. Chen’s door, she opened it slowly. Her eyes lit up when she saw him. “A visitor!” she said. They sat in her living room, surrounded by old photographs and books. Pedro didn’t know what to say, so he asked, “Do you like stories, Mrs. Chen?” She smiled and said, “I love them. But my eyes aren’t what they used to be. I haven’t read a book in two years.” That’s when Pedro got an idea. He ran home and grabbed his favorite book, a collection of adventure stories. He came back and said, “Can I read to you?” Mrs. Chen’s eyes filled with tears. “I would like that very much,” she whispered. Now, reading to Mrs. Chen has become the best part of Pedro’s week. He has read her three whole books. Sometimes they laugh together at funny parts. Sometimes Mrs. Chen tells him stories about her own childhood in Shanghai. Pedro has learned that old people are not so different from young people. They both need friendship. They both have wonderful stories to share. Last week, Mrs. Chen gave Pedro a small gift—a bookmark she had made by hand. “You have given me back the gift of stories,” she said. Pedro smiled and said, “No, Mrs. Chen. You gave me the gift of your friendship.” 14. Why did Pedro first go to Mrs. Chen’s house? A．To do his school homework. B．To take part in a school program. C．To borrow some old books. D．To help clean her living room. 15. How did Mrs. Chen feel when she first saw Pedro? A．Surprised and confused. B．Sad and lonely. C．Happy and excited. D．Nervous and worried. 16. What can we learn about Mrs. Chen from the passage? A．She used to love reading but now has trouble seeing. B．She has many grandchildren who visit her often. C．She taught Pedro how to play video games. D．She doesn’t like adventure stories. 17. What does the bookmark represent (代表) in the story? A．Mrs. Chen’s thanks for Pedro’s friendship. B．A tool that Mrs. Chen uses to read books. C．A reward for Pedro’s good grades at school. D．A reminder for Pedro to return her books. C Every year, millions of tons of plastic waste end up in the ocean. This plastic does not disappear. Instead, it breaks down into tiny pieces called microplastics. These microplastics are smaller than a grain of rice. Fish and other sea animals eat them by accident. Then, larger animals eat those fish. Eventually, the plastic particles can end up on our own dinner plates. Scientists are very worried about this problem. Microplastics have been found in tap water, bottled water, and even in the air we breathe. But what can ordinary people do? The problem seems too big for one person to solve. However, a 15-year-old student named Hailey from Florida decided to try. She learned that one of the biggest sources of microplastics is the tiny fibers that wash off our clothes when we do laundry. Many clothes are made of polyester, nylon, and acrylic. Every time we wash them, thousands of tiny plastic fibers go down the drain and into the water system. Hailey invented a simple device called the “Cora Ball”. The ball looks like a bumpy, textured toy. You throw it into your washing machine. When the machine runs, the ball catches many of the tiny plastic fibers before they can go down the drain. Hailey’s invention won first prize in a national science competition. Now, a company is manufacturing the Cora Ball, and thousands of people are using it. “You don’t have to be an adult to make a difference,” Hailey said in an interview. “Small actions, when multiplied by millions of people, can change the world.” Scientists agree that the best solution is to produce less plastic in the first place. But while we work toward that goal, inventions like the Cora Ball can help reduce the harm. Every piece of plastic that doesn’t reach the ocean is a small victory. 18. What are microplastics according to the passage? A．Plastic bags that are very small. B．Tiny pieces of plastic smaller than a grain of rice. C．A special type of plastic that disappears in water. D．Plastic that only comes from washing machines. 19. What problem did Hailey try to solve? A．People using too many plastic bags. B．Plastic fibers washing off clothes into water. C．Fish eating plastic toys in the ocean. D．Factories producing too much plastic. 20. How does the Cora Ball work? A．It cleans the clothes without using water. B．It catches plastic fibers during the wash. C．It changes plastic into something harmless. D．It tells you when to stop the washing machine. 21. What is the main message that Hailey wants to share? A．Only scientists can solve environmental problems. B．Young people should wait until they grow up to help. C．Everyone, even a teenager, can make a difference. D．Washing clothes is the biggest cause of pollution. D What if you could travel back in time? Where would you go? Would you watch the building of the Great Wall? Would you sit beside Albert Einstein as he developed his theory of relativity? Or would you go back to yesterday and fix that mistake you made on the math test? Time travel has been a popular topic in science fiction for more than a hundred years. H.G. Wells’s 1895 novel The Time Machine introduced the idea to the world. Since then, countless books, movies, and TV shows have explored the possibilities. But is time travel actually possible? The answer might surprise you. According to Albert Einstein’s theory of relativity, time is not the same everywhere. It moves slower for objects that are moving very fast. For example, astronauts on the International Space Station age slightly slower than people on Earth. This effect is called “time dilation”. Scientists have proven it with extremely precise clocks. However, traveling backward in time is much more difficult. Most physicists believe it is impossible. One famous scientist, Stephen Hawking, performed a simple experiment to test it. He threw a party for time travelers. But he only announced the party after it had already happened. The idea was that if time travelers existed, they could go back and attend the party. No one showed up. Even if traveling backward is impossible, traveling forward in time is definitely real. Every time you take a flight, you travel into the future—just by a tiny, unmeasurable amount. If you could travel close to the speed of light, you could jump thousands of years into the future in what felt like only a few days to you. But there is a catch. You could never return to the time you left. Your friends and family would be long gone. So, would you still want to take that trip? 22. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A．To describe how time machines work. B．To encourage readers to build a time machine. C．To get readers interested in the topic of time travel. D．To argue that time travel is a waste of time. 23. What does the “time dilation” effect prove? A．Time is the same everywhere in the universe. B．Astronauts age faster than people on Earth. C．Time moves slower for very fast-moving objects. D．Traveling backward in time is easy to achieve. 24. Why did Stephen Hawking throw a party after it had already happened? A．He wanted to celebrate his birthday alone. B．He was testing whether time travelers would come back to attend. C．He forgot to invite people until the party was over. D．He wanted to prove that time travel is possible. 25. What is the “catch” of traveling far into the future? A．It costs too much money. B．You can never return to your original time. C．You will forget everything from your past. D．It feels much longer than you expect. 第三部分 信息还原（共5小题：每小题1分，满分5分） 请认真阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。 Have you ever started a hobby and then given up after a few weeks? You are not alone. Many people struggle to stick with new activities. ___26___ Start small. Don’t try to practice the guitar for two hours every day if you’ve never played before. ___27___ Five minutes a day is better than two hours once a week. Small, regular practice builds a habit.

Track your progress. Keep a simple record of what you do each day. ___29___ Seeing how far you’ve come can give you the push to continue. Allow yourself to be bad at first.

No charge.” That night, Leo read the first ten pages. Then he read twenty. Then he read fifty. He stayed up past midnight, unable to put the book down. The next morning, he ran back to the shop.

She never raised her hand in class. She ate lunch alone by choice. She had one friend, her neighbor Sofia, and that felt like enough. Then her school announced a “Community Service Day”. Every student had to spend the day helping somewhere in the town. Maria was terrified. She was assigned to the local animal shelter. “I have to talk to strangers all day?” she thought. “This is going to be a disaster.” At the shelter, the manager asked Maria to help socialize the cats. “What does that mean?” Maria asked nervously. “Just sit with them. Pet them. Talk to them,” the manager said. “Cats don’t judge you. They just need company.” Maria sat down in a small room with six cats. At first, she didn’t know what to do. She sat still, her hands in her lap. Then a small black cat walked over and rubbed against her leg. Without thinking, Maria reached down and gently scratched behind its ears. The cat began to purr loudly. For the next four hours, Maria talked to that cat. She told it about her fear of speaking in class. She told it about how she felt lonely sometimes, even though she said she preferred being alone. The cat just sat there, listening, purring. By the end of the day, Maria had named the cat “Shadow”. When it was time to leave, the manager said, “Shadow has been here for six months. No one wanted to adopt him because he’s shy. He hides from everyone. But today, he came out for you.” Something clicked in Maria’s heart. She understood something she had never understood before. Being shy wasn’t a weakness. It just meant she connected with others differently. And maybe, just maybe, she could be the person who reached out to other shy creatures—human or animal—who needed someone to sit with them in silence. Maria went home and asked her parents if she could volunteer at the shelter every Saturday. They said yes. That was two years ago. Today, Maria is still shy. But she is also the shelter’s best volunteer, and Shadow is sleeping on her bed at home. 54. Where did Maria have to go on Community Service Day? ________________________________________________________________________ 55. Why did the manager say “Cats don’t judge you” to Maria? ________________________________________________________________________ 56. What lesson did Maria learn about being shy by the end of the story?

(开放性答案，言之成理即可) 书面表达： 参考范文： Dear Tom, I was sorry to hear that you are having a hard time because of phone games. I understand that games are fun and exciting, but spending too much time on them can really hurt your studies and your relationship with your parents. Here are some suggestions that might help you. First, try to make a time plan. For example, you could play for only 30 minutes each day, or you could save game time for weekends only. Second, find other activities to take the place of gaming. You could try playing basketball, reading interesting books, learning to play the guitar, or hanging out with friends. These things can be just as enjoyable as games. Third, talk to your parents openly. Instead of arguing with them, tell them honestly that you know you have a problem and ask them to help you stick to your plan. I believe you can get through this difficulty. Change takes time, so don't be too hard on yourself. Take small steps every day. I am looking forward to hearing good news from you soon. Yours sincerely, Zhang Ming 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
