Every morning, he would walk to the sea before sunrise. When I was young, I asked to go with him. He smiled and said, "It's hard work." I didn't care. I just wanted to be like him. The first time I pulled on the heavy boots, I almost fell over. Grandfather laughed and ___1___ my hand. "You'll learn," he said. We walked in silence. The sand was cold under my feet. When we reached the boat, he showed me how to check the nets. My fingers were clumsy. I tore one net and tangled another. "Patience," he said. "The sea teaches everything, but it never rushes." I didn't understand then. I only felt ___2___ . One morning, the sea was rough. Other fishermen stayed on land, but Grandfather said, "The best fish come after a storm." We went out. The boat rocked wildly. I held onto the side, my knuckles white. Water splashed over us. I wanted to go back. "Look," Grandfather pointed. A group of dolphins swam beside our boat, jumping through the waves. I forgot my fear. For the first time, I saw the sea not as something ___3___ , but as something alive and full of wonder. Grandfather taught me many things that summer. He taught me how to read the clouds, how to tie knots that never slip, and how to be ___4___ when nothing goes right. But the most important lesson came on our last day. As we pulled the boat onto the sand, he said, "You are leaving tomorrow. Promise me one thing. When life gets hard, remember the dolphins." I didn't ask what he meant. I just nodded. Years passed. I faced difficult exams, broken friendships, and moments when I wanted to give up. Each time, I remembered the dolphins. I remembered that ___5___ can appear in the middle of the storm. Grandfather passed away last winter. At his funeral, I stood by the sea and ___6___ a handful of sand. The wind carried it away. I understood then what he had tried to teach me. Life is like the sea. It has calm days and stormy days. You cannot ___7___ the waves, but you can learn to sail through them. And if you are lucky, you will see dolphins along the way. I am a fisherman now, just like him. Every morning, I walk to the sea before sunrise. Sometimes young neighbors ask to come with me. I smile and say, "It's hard work." When they fall or make mistakes, I ___8___ them. I tell them about patience. I tell them about the dolphins. And one day, I hope they will tell their own children the same ___9___ . Because that is how love travels. Not through grand speeches or expensive gifts, but through small moments on a boat, through hands that hold yours when you are learning to walk in heavy boots, through the quiet ___10___ of wisdom from one generation to the next. 1.

People bring in broken items—lamps, toasters, chairs, clocks, even favorite old toys—and volunteers try to fix them for free. The idea is simple: repair, don't throw away. The Repair Café started in the Netherlands in 2009. Today, there are thousands of them around the world. The volunteers are usually skilled older people who have retired from jobs as electricians, carpenters, or tailors. They enjoy sharing their knowledge and keeping busy. Younger people come to learn basic repair skills that are no longer taught in schools. One regular visitor is 14-year-old Maya. She first came with a broken skateboard. A volunteer named Mr. Chen showed her how to replace the bearings. Maya was fascinated. She started coming every week. Now she can fix simple electronics and even sew buttons onto clothes. "My friends think I'm strange for wanting to repair things," Maya says. "But why buy something new when the old one just needs a little love?" The Repair Café also helps the environment. Every item that gets fixed means one less piece of trash in a landfill. It also means fewer new products need to be made, which saves resources and energy. In one year, the Sunshine Repair Café alone has saved over 2,000 items from being thrown away. Not everything can be fixed, of course. Some items are too broken or too dangerous to repair. But the volunteers always explain why, and they often save useful parts for future repairs. "Fixing is a mindset," says Mr. Chen. "It teaches you to see value in things that others have given up on." 11. What is the main purpose of the Repair Café? A．To sell used items at low prices. B．To teach young people to become professional repair workers. C．To help people fix broken items for free instead of throwing them away. D．To collect broken items and send them to recycling factories. 12. What did Maya learn from Mr. Chen? A．How to build a new skateboard. B．How to replace bearings on a skateboard. C．How to design electronic toys. D．How to sew a pair of jeans. 13. According to the passage, how does the Repair Café help the environment? A．It plants trees near the community center. B．It teaches people to make new products from trash. C．It saves resources by reducing waste and the need for new products. D．It collects plastic bottles and turns them into furniture. B In a small village in Kenya, 13-year-old Nala used to walk two hours every day to collect water for her family. The water was dirty and often made her younger brother sick. Nala dreamed of becoming a doctor, but she spent so much time carrying water that she had little energy left for homework. Then something changed. A group of engineering students from a university in Japan arrived in the village. They had designed a special kind of rainwater collection system made from local materials. The system used large plastic sheets to catch rain and direct it into clean storage tanks. It was simple, cheap, and easy to build. The students taught Nala and other villagers how to build the system. Nala worked alongside them every day after school. She learned how to measure, cut, and seal the plastic sheets. She learned why it was important to keep the tanks covered so that mosquitoes could not lay eggs inside. When the first rain came, the tanks filled with clean water. Nala's mother cried with joy. For the first time, Nala did not have to make the long walk. Now, Nala has time to study. Her grades have improved greatly. She still wants to be a doctor. But she has also learned something new. "I used to think that only big organizations could solve big problems," she says. "Now I know that a good idea, some hard work, and a few people who care can change everything." The engineering students have returned to Japan, but the clean water system still works. Other villages have asked Nala to teach them how to build their own. She has become a leader in her community at just 14 years old. "Water is life," Nala says. "But knowledge is the key that unlocks it." 14. What problem did Nala face before the engineering students arrived? A．She didn't want to become a doctor anymore. B．She had to spend too much time collecting dirty water. C．Her family could not afford to buy clean water. D．The engineering students refused to teach her. 15. What did the rainwater collection system use to catch rain? A．Large metal containers. B．Local tree leaves. C．Large plastic sheets. D．Old cooking pots. 16. Why did Nala's mother cry when the first rain came? A．Because the rain destroyed their house. B．Because she was sad that Nala would leave home. C．Because she was happy to have clean water at last. D．Because the engineering students were leaving the village. 17. What does Nala mean by saying "knowledge is the key that unlocks it"? A．You need a key to open the water tank. B．Learning how to solve problems is more important than waiting for help. C．Only university students can help poor villages. D．Water is the most important thing in life. C Have you ever forgotten something that you were sure you knew? Perhaps the answer to a test question, or the name of someone you just met? That feeling is called "tip-of-the-tongue" (TOT). It happens when you know that you know something, but you cannot quite retrieve it from your memory. Scientists have studied TOT for decades. They have found that it occurs more often as people get older. But young people experience it too. Interestingly, bilingual people—those who speak two languages fluently—experience TOT more often than people who speak only one language. Why? Because they have more words stored in their brains, and sometimes those words get mixed up. When you are in a TOT state, your brain is actually working hard. It knows where the information should be, but it cannot find the exact path. Think of it like a library. You know that a certain book exists, and you know which shelf it should be on, but someone has moved it to a different shelf. Your brain is searching all the nearby shelves. That is why you might recall words that sound similar to the one you want, or words that have a related meaning. Most TOT moments pass within a minute or two. If you stop trying so hard, the answer often pops into your head suddenly. This is because your brain continues to search in the background, even when you are thinking about something else. So next time you are stuck on a word, try thinking about something completely different. Take a deep breath. Walk away for a moment. Often, that is when the word will come back to you. However, frequent and severe TOT experiences can be a sign of memory problems. If you or someone you know cannot remember very common words or names all the time, it might be worth talking to a doctor. But for most people, occasional TOT is completely normal and nothing to worry about. 18. According to the passage, who experiences TOT more often? A．Children under ten years old. B．People who speak two languages fluently. C．People who read many books. D．People who never forget anything. 19. What does the library example help to explain? A．Why libraries are good places to study. B．How books get moved to different shelves. C．Why your brain knows where information should be but cannot find it. D．How to organize your memory like a librarian. 20. What should you do if you are experiencing a TOT moment? A．Try harder and harder until you remember. B．Ask someone else to tell you the answer immediately. C．Stop trying so hard and think about something else. D．Write down every word that comes to your mind. 21. When is TOT considered a possible health concern? A．When it happens to young people. B．When it happens during a test. C．When it happens very often with very common words. D．When it happens only once a year. D Imagine a school with no classrooms, no bells, and no tests. Students choose what they want to learn each day. They work on projects that interest them. They learn at their own speed. This is not a fantasy. It is called "self-directed learning", and more schools around the world are trying it. In a self-directed learning school, teachers do not stand at the front of a room and lecture. Instead, they act as guides or helpers. If a student wants to learn about outer space, the teacher helps find books, videos, and experts to talk to. If a student wants to build a robot, the teacher helps gather materials and suggests steps. The student is responsible for his or her own learning. Critics say that without tests and grades, students will not work hard. They worry that children will just play all day. Supporters disagree. They point to research showing that when students are interested in a topic, they learn faster and remember more. They also learn important life skills like planning, problem-solving, and self-discipline. One famous example is the Sudbury Valley School in Massachusetts, which has used self-directed learning since 1968. Graduates from this school have become artists, engineers, doctors, and business owners. Many say that the freedom to follow their interests as children helped them find their passion as adults. Self-directed learning is not for everyone. Some students prefer more structure and guidance. That is okay. The important thing is to find the learning style that works best for you. But one thing is clear: the old idea that all students must sit in rows and listen to a teacher for six hours a day is not the only way to learn. Perhaps the future of education will look less like a factory and more like a garden, where each student grows in their own way. 22. What is the main idea of the first paragraph? A．To describe a typical school day. B．To introduce an unusual way of learning. C．To argue that all schools should have tests. D．To explain why bells are necessary in schools. 23. In a self-directed learning school, what do teachers do? A．They give lectures at the front of the classroom. B．They give tests every week to check progress. C．They act as guides and help students find resources. D．They decide what every student must learn each day. 24. What do critics of self-directed learning worry about? A．Teachers will lose their jobs. B．Students will not work hard without tests and grades. C．Schools will become too expensive. D．Students will only want to learn about robots. 25. Why does the author mention a garden in the last paragraph? A．To suggest that schools should have more plants. B．To compare different ways of learning to different ways of growing. C．To argue that students should spend more time outside. D．To describe the physical design of a new school building. 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 felt that there aren't enough hours in the day? Many students struggle to balance homework, hobbies, family time, and sleep. ___26___ Here are four strategies that have worked for thousands of young people. First, make a list. Write down everything you need to do. ___27___ Seeing your tasks on paper helps you understand what is truly important and what can wait. Second, break big tasks into small ones. "Write a history report" feels huge and scary. But "find three sources online" is easy. "Write the introduction" is even easier. ___28___ Each small win gives you energy to keep going. Third, use a timer. Work for 25 minutes, then take a 5-minute break. This is called the Pomodoro Technique. ___29___ You get more done than if you worked for two hours without stopping, because your brain stays fresh. Finally, learn to say no. You do not have to join every club, go to every party, or help everyone who asks. ___30___ It is about protecting time for the things that truly matter to you, like sleep, family, and your favorite hobby. A．This helps you see what you actually have to do. B．It's okay to say no sometimes. C．The key is to start with the smallest possible step. D．You should always say yes to your friends. E．It might sound strange, but short focused work periods are more effective than long tired ones. F．Time management is not about doing more things. G．You should never take breaks while working. 第II卷 (主观题 共55分) 第四部分 词汇运用（共13小题；每小题1分，满分13分） 第一节 根据下列句子所给汉语注释或首字母，在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式，每空限填一词。 31.

The grass was overgrown. The benches were broken. The pond was filled with trash. People walked past it every day, but no one went inside. They called it "Forgotten Park." Then one day, a young girl named Mei decided to change that. She was only eleven years old, but she had a big idea. She wrote a letter to the mayor. "Dear Mayor," she wrote. "Our park is sick. Can we please make it better?" The mayor was surprised to receive a letter from a child. He invited Mei to a community meeting. At first, the adults did not take her seriously.

Her mother sold handmade jewelry on the street. Elena shared a tiny room with her two younger brothers. There was no desk. There was no quiet place to study. But Elena loved school more than anything. Every night, after her brothers fell asleep, she would sit on the floor with a small flashlight and her textbooks. The light was dim. The floor was hard. But Elena did not complain. "I will be the first in my family to go to university," she told herself. One day, Elena's teacher, Mrs. Ramirez, noticed that Elena always seemed tired in class. When Mrs. Ramirez learned about Elena's situation, she was heartbroken. She wanted to help, but she had little money herself. Then she had an idea. She asked her neighbors if anyone had an old desk they did not need. A retired carpenter named Mr. Lopez said, "I don't have a desk to give. But I have wood. And I have hands. I will build her one." Mr. Lopez spent two weeks building the desk. He made it small but strong, with a drawer for Elena's books and a smooth surface for writing. He painted it Elena's favorite color, blue. When he and Mrs. Ramirez delivered the desk to Elena's apartment, Elena cried. She had never owned a piece of furniture that was just for her. That desk became her study space. She used it every single night. Her grades improved. Her confidence grew. Seven years later, Elena graduated from the National University of Mexico with a degree in engineering. At her graduation party, she invited Mrs. Ramirez and Mr. Lopez. She stood in front of them and said, "You gave me a desk. But you also gave me something bigger. You showed me that my dreams mattered to others. That made me believe they could come true." Today, Elena is an engineer. She designs bridges. And in her office, she keeps a small blue desk. It is too small for her work. But she will never throw it away. "This desk," she says, "built more than a student. It built a future." 54. Why did Elena study with a flashlight on the floor at night? ________________________________________________________________________ 55.

I have always loved nature and felt sad when I see polluted rivers and smoggy skies. When I was ten, I watched a documentary about plastic waste in the ocean. That night, I decided I wanted to help solve these problems. To achieve my dream, I am working hard in school, especially in math and science. I have joined my school's environmental club, where we learn about recycling and clean energy. I also read books about famous environmental engineers. After class, I watch online videos to learn how to build small water filters. My goal is to study environmental engineering at a good university. I know the road is long, but I am not afraid. Every small step brings me closer to my dream. One day, I hope to design solutions that make the Earth cleaner and healthier for everyone. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
