A
Having spent a fashionable day in Shoreditch — whether at a gallery opening or a tech start-up, you are desperately in need of decent food to keep going. Fortunately, Shoreditch has a lively food scene and our local insiders have picked their favorite restaurants for you.
Gloria
This local favorite is impossible to miss with its bright, eye-catching wall design on Great Eastern Street. It’s one of the most popular spots for social media influencers. This Italian restaurant serves delicious dishes. Its menu also has fun choices, including creative cocktails and wonderful seasonal specials — don’t miss the 10-level lasagna (烤宽面)!

Every fall, billions of birds set off on their long southward journey to overwintering regions. Their journey is extraordinarily dangerous and exhausting. They can be blown off course in bad weather or crash into tall buildings.
The incredible phenomenon of birds’ mass migration tends to escape our attention, as most migrating birds travel at night while we are sound asleep. This nighttime journey offers distinct advantages. They can rely on the stars as they find their way and use the cover of night to hide from natural enemies.
Increasingly, however, urban light pollution poses a threat to migrating birds, misleading their flying direction and causing crashes into buildings. As global light pollution worsens by about 10 percent each year, birds are facing a severe survival crisis. The 2025 American Birds report identified one-third of all native bird species as high or moderate concern.
Unlike other challenging conservation issues, light pollution is one we can all address easily in our own yards — simply by flipping a switch. Cities such as Flagstaff, Arizona, offer a model for communities looking to adopt policies that dramatically reduce artificial light pollution and preserve the night sky. By turning off unnecessary lights, directing light downward and using “warmer” colored lights, we can significantly reduce negative impacts on these migrating birds.
Thanks to weather radar and recent technological advancements, scientists can now track bird migrations in real time and forecast their routes in advance. Drawing on the released migration schedules and routes, each of us can do our part: switch off outdoor lights, gather to observe the night sky, document sightings in detail and upload them to eBird, a free citizen-science platform where your participatory information can aid global bird protection and scientific research.
It’s time to act now and guarantee that future generations can still witness the wonders of bird migration and the beauty of the starry night sky.
4. What is one benefit of birds migrating at night?
A. Star guidance. B. Less noise. C. Human absence. D. Easier flight.
5. What are ordinary people expected to do for migrating birds?
A. Avoid shining lights into the sky. B. Monitor migration routes.
C. Eliminate indoor artificial lights. D. Categorize native bird species.
6. What’s the function of eBird according to the text?
A. Issuing bird-watching locations. B. Performing live bird broadcasts.
C. Funding global bird-related projects. D. Collecting bird observational data.
7. What is a suitable title for the text?
A. Dark Sky, Alarming Future B. Guard Wings Against Urban Light
C. Light Pollution: A Growing Concern D. Bring Birds Lost in Chaos Back Home
C
In the UK, climate extremes damage fields, with 84% of farmers seeing lower crop output. Labour shortages, rising costs and resource pressure further cloud the outlook of British agriculture.
However, as agricultural problems multiply, creative responses arise. Virtual reality (VR), the same immersive tech usually associated with gamers, is quietly becoming a lifeline for the global food system, helping build future-ready farms.
Farm work mostly involves operating tractors, but this can be stressful for inexperienced workers, given tractors’ large blind spots and narrow, muddy rural roads. One critical application of VR lies in enhancing driving safety through targeted danger training. Traditional training often relies on images and simplified explanations, resulting in a significant safety gap.
The University of Nottingham created a tractor VR danger test using real 360° footage, placing learners in high-risk circumstances, such as hidden cyclists or unexpected sharp turns on rough roads. Trials with over 100 drivers showed this immersive training sharpens danger awareness and reduces accident risks.
VR also trains future vineyard workers without damaging vines (葡萄藤). Wet-day practice exposes living vine cells, allowing diseases to take hold. New Zealand’s MaaraTech Project has developed a system enabling trainees to practise cutting vines indoors or on rainy days. Sensor-equipped scissors guide users in correct cutting force and angle, guaranteeing accuracy rather than mere speed, for neater cuts ensure healthier vines and better grapes. VR training helps new workers gain confidence and enables them to become qualified laborers in a short time.
Besides, Oregon State University’s project offers virtual farm trips via smart devices, while an Indian university uses VR centres for interactive lessons on crop growth, animal care and modern production systems. These projects enrich young people’s understanding of farming. Above all, they give them a head start, sparking their curiosity and contributing to their engagement in agricultural fields — long before they step onto a real farm.
8. Why does the author mention British agriculture?
A. To analyze labor gaps. B. To stress farming crises.
C. To introduce VR’s role. D. To state causes of crop failures.
9. What is the major problem with traditional tractor-driving training?
A. It fails to make blind spots clear. B. It barely offers hands-on instructions.
C. It overlooks the importance of safety rules. D. It can’t fully prepare trainees for real dangers.
10. Which word best describes the performance of the sensor-equipped scissors?
A. Precise. B. Flexible. C. Durable. D. Speedy.
11. In what way do VR farming projects mainly affect the youth based on paragraph 6?
A. Career motivation. B. Skill acquisition.
C. Virtual interaction. D. Farm work efficiency.
D
From smartwatches to single-use devices measuring our heartbeats and blood sugar, the wearable healthcare electronic network enables real-time physiological monitoring, human-computer interaction and timely health support, offering continuous tracking that was once the stuff of science fiction.
While these small wearable monitors seem lightweight and insignificant, researchers from the University of Chicago discovered, after conducting a life-cycle assessment, that they have a surprisingly large environmental cost. A single blood sugar monitor has a 2 kg carbon footprint, equal to driving a gasoline car roughly five miles.
The real challenge lies ahead. These devices are growing inseparable for patients, athletes and the elderly. The study projected that global device consumption will rise 42-fold by 2050, with an annual output of nearly 2 billion units. This is the “butterfly effect” of wearable tech. What starts as a little breakthrough in a lab becomes a flood of annual CO2 emissions, matching those from Chicago’s transport system. Their reliance on harmful chemicals, plastic materials and critical metals accounts for serious environmental damage and growing e-waste.
The study shows over 95% of environmental impact comes from circuit (电路) boards and semiconductors. The use of gold and batteries creates a concentrated pocket of environmental cost. Researchers modeled three targeted solutions. Adopting plastics that can be used repeatedly only cuts warming impact by 1.8% to 2.6%, as circuit boards mainly made of glass fiber, copper and resin are dominant, while using ordinary metals in place of gold cuts impact by 30%. Using pluggable interfaces, patients could reuse the expensive, long-lived internal circuits while only replacing the single-use parts, which could reduce impact per use by up to 62.4%.
The study calls for a systems engineering approach that combines life-cycle assessments and growth forecasts to avoid sustainability crises. With medical wearable devices widely used, this research offers a blueprint for eco-friendly innovation.
12. What fact does paragraph 1 indicate?
A. Medical errors are on the decline.
B. Fictional ideas can be readily applied.
C. Digital devices guarantee physical health.
D. Wearables are reshaping health monitoring.
13. What does the underlined expression “butterfly effect” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Smart inventions, massive convenience.
B. Brief use, negative consequences.
C. Tiny devices, substantial carbon footprint.
D. Multitasking devices, high demand.
14. Why does using recyclable plastics cut warming effect slightly?
A. Plastic has a short service life. B. Plastic accounts for a small share.
C. Plastic affects metal materials. D. Plastic is too expensive to produce.
15. Who is the text mainly intended for?
A. Ecologists. B. Healthcare workers.
C. Tech designers. D. Sci-fi lovers.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jake lived with his mother in a small apartment in a city of the UK. His father had battled cancer for years and passed away last year, leaving him a bike as a precious memory. For Jake, this bike was not just a means of transport — it was the only way for him to get to school every day, and also a warm reminder of his father.
To support Jake through high school, his mother worked hard, taking on three part-time jobs: cleaning hotel toilets, washing dishes in a restaurant and delivering leaflets around the neighborhood. She came home late every night, tired out, but never complained. Deeply understanding how tough his mother’s life was, he never asked for anything extra and kept studying hard.
One Friday afternoon, Jake locked his bike outside a bookstore and stepped inside. When he came out, the bike was nowhere to be found. He searched the streets crazily, but all his efforts were useless. His heart sank. He was afraid to tell his mother the truth, aware that her tight budget simply couldn’t afford a new bike.
He was wandering aimlessly along the sidewalk when Mr. Smith, a retired teacher, passed by him on a bike. Jake’s eyes widened because the bike looked almost identical to his lost one. He ran after Mr. Smith until he parked his bike at the gate of a big house and went in without locking it. He looked up and down the bike only to find it wasn’t his at all. Overwhelmed by desperation, Jake hesitated for a second, then jumped on the bike and rode home as fast as possible.
His mother didn’t notice anything different. But Jake lay awake all night long, feeling guilty. He knew he had made a terrible mistake, so he made up his mind to return the bike the next morning and buy a second-hand one with his saved lunch money.
The next morning, Jake got up early and rode the bike back to the gate of the big house, his heart pounding with nervousness.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Just as he parked it, Mr. Smith walked out.

Every fall, billions of birds set off on their long southward journey to overwintering regions. Their journey is extraordinarily dangerous and exhausting. They can be blown off course in bad weather or crash into tall buildings.
The incredible phenomenon of birds’ mass migration tends to escape our attention, as most migrating birds travel at night while we are sound asleep. This nighttime journey offers distinct advantages. They can rely on the stars as they find their way and use the cover of night to hide from natural enemies.
Increasingly, however, urban light pollution poses a threat to migrating birds, misleading their flying direction and causing crashes into buildings. As global light pollution worsens by about 10 percent each year, birds are facing a severe survival crisis. The 2025 American Birds report identified one-third of all native bird species as high or moderate concern.
Unlike other challenging conservation issues, light pollution is one we can all address easily in our own yards — simply by flipping a switch. Cities such as Flagstaff, Arizona, offer a model for communities looking to adopt policies that dramatically reduce artificial light pollution and preserve the night sky. By turning off unnecessary lights, directing light downward and using “warmer” colored lights, we can significantly reduce negative impacts on these migrating birds.
Thanks to weather radar and recent technological advancements, scientists can now track bird migrations in real time and forecast their routes in advance. Drawing on the released migration schedules and routes, each of us can do our part: switch off outdoor lights, gather to observe the night sky, document sightings in detail and upload them to eBird, a free citizen-science platform where your participatory information can aid global bird protection and scientific research.
It’s time to act now and guarantee that future generations can still witness the wonders of bird migration and the beauty of the starry night sky.

In the UK, climate extremes damage fields, with 84% of farmers seeing lower crop output. Labour shortages, rising costs and resource pressure further cloud the outlook of British agriculture.
However, as agricultural problems multiply, creative responses arise. Virtual reality (VR), the same immersive tech usually associated with gamers, is quietly becoming a lifeline for the global food system, helping build future-ready farms.
Farm work mostly involves operating tractors, but this can be stressful for inexperienced workers, given tractors’ large blind spots and narrow, muddy rural roads. One critical application of VR lies in enhancing driving safety through targeted danger training. Traditional training often relies on images and simplified explanations, resulting in a significant safety gap.
The University of Nottingham created a tractor VR danger test using real 360° footage, placing learners in high-risk circumstances, such as hidden cyclists or unexpected sharp turns on rough roads. Trials with over 100 drivers showed this immersive training sharpens danger awareness and reduces accident risks.
VR also trains future vineyard workers without damaging vines (葡萄藤). Wet-day practice exposes living vine cells, allowing diseases to take hold. New Zealand’s MaaraTech Project has developed a system enabling trainees to practise cutting vines indoors or on rainy days. Sensor-equipped scissors guide users in correct cutting force and angle, guaranteeing accuracy rather than mere speed, for neater cuts ensure healthier vines and better grapes. VR training helps new workers gain confidence and enables them to become qualified laborers in a short time.
Besides, Oregon State University’s project offers virtual farm trips via smart devices, while an Indian university uses VR centres for interactive lessons on crop growth, animal care and modern production systems. These projects enrich young people’s understanding of farming. Above all, they give them a head start, sparking their curiosity and contributing to their engagement in agricultural fields — long before they step onto a real farm.
8. Why does the author mention British agriculture?
A. To analyze labor gaps. B. To stress farming crises.
C. To introduce VR’s role. D. To state causes of crop failures.
9. What is the major problem with traditional tractor-driving training?
A. It fails to make blind spots clear. B. It barely offers hands-on instructions.
C. It overlooks the importance of safety rules. D. It can’t fully prepare trainees for real dangers.
10. Which word best describes the performance of the sensor-equipped scissors?
A. Precise. B. Flexible. C. Durable. D. Speedy.
11. In what way do VR farming projects mainly affect the youth based on paragraph 6?
A. Career motivation. B. Skill acquisition.
C. Virtual interaction. D. Farm work efficiency.

From smartwatches to single-use devices measuring our heartbeats and blood sugar, the wearable healthcare electronic network enables real-time physiological monitoring, human-computer interaction and timely health support, offering continuous tracking that was once the stuff of science fiction.
While these small wearable monitors seem lightweight and insignificant, researchers from the University of Chicago discovered, after conducting a life-cycle assessment, that they have a surprisingly large environmental cost. A single blood sugar monitor has a 2 kg carbon footprint, equal to driving a gasoline car roughly five miles.
The real challenge lies ahead. These devices are growing inseparable for patients, athletes and the elderly. The study projected that global device consumption will rise 42-fold by 2050, with an annual output of nearly 2 billion units. This is the “butterfly effect” of wearable tech. What starts as a little breakthrough in a lab becomes a flood of annual CO2 emissions, matching those from Chicago’s transport system. Their reliance on harmful chemicals, plastic materials and critical metals accounts for serious environmental damage and growing e-waste.
The study shows over 95% of environmental impact comes from circuit (电路) boards and semiconductors. The use of gold and batteries creates a concentrated pocket of environmental cost. Researchers modeled three targeted solutions. Adopting plastics that can be used repeatedly only cuts warming impact by 1.8% to 2.6%, as circuit boards mainly made of glass fiber, copper and resin are dominant, while using ordinary metals in place of gold cuts impact by 30%. Using pluggable interfaces, patients could reuse the expensive, long-lived internal circuits while only replacing the single-use parts, which could reduce impact per use by up to 62.4%.
The study calls for a systems engineering approach that combines life-cycle assessments and growth forecasts to avoid sustainability crises. With medical wearable devices widely used, this research offers a blueprint for eco-friendly innovation.
12. What fact does paragraph 1 indicate?
A. Medical errors are on the decline.
B. Fictional ideas can be readily applied.
C. Digital devices guarantee physical health.
D. Wearables are reshaping health monitoring.
13. What does the underlined expression “butterfly effect” in paragraph 3 mean?
A. Smart inventions, massive convenience.
B. Brief use, negative consequences.
C. Tiny devices, substantial carbon footprint.
D. Multitasking devices, high demand.
14. Why does using recyclable plastics cut warming effect slightly?
A. Plastic has a short service life. B. Plastic accounts for a small share.
C. Plastic affects metal materials. D. Plastic is too expensive to produce.
15. Who is the text mainly intended for?
A. Ecologists. B. Healthcare workers.

考查非谓语动词。句意:这种起源于两千多年前黄土高原的古老舞蹈,展现了当地人的力量与乐观精神,已成为中国民间艺术的象征。此处为非谓语动词作后置定语,dance与date from之间为主动关系,所以用现在分词dating。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:这种起源于两千多年前黄土高原的古老舞蹈,展现了当地人的力量与乐观精神,已成为中国民间艺术的象征。此处与名词strength并列,需用名词形式,optimistic的名词为optimism意为“乐观”。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:舞者们身着艳丽的传统服饰,腰间系着大鼓,整齐划一跳跃转身。此处为非谓语动词作状语,逻辑主语dancers与dress之间为被动关系,所以用过去分词dressed,位于句首,首字母需大写。
【39题详解】
考查冠词。句意:与此同时,在卡姆登市场,一支来自浙江的戏曲团队上演婺剧,这是一种因其精致服饰和感染力叙事而备受推崇的独特艺术形式。form为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,所以此处使用冠词,结合句意,此处表示“一种独特的艺术形式”为泛指,且unique是以辅音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词a。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:两支团队随后受邀前往特拉法加广场演出,这里是亚洲以外规模最大的新年庆祝活动举办地。固定搭配invite sb. to do sth.被动形式为be invited to do sth.,意为“受邀做某事”,所以用动词不定式to perform。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:两支团队随后受邀前往特拉法加广场演出,这里是亚洲以外规模最大的新年庆祝活动举办地。此处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为Trafalgar Square,指物,从句中缺少主语,所以用关系代词which。
【42题详解】
考查介词。句意:在法国,一场新春招待会在一座历史庄园举办,这场活动的人气很大程度上源于其独特的马术文化。固定搭配result from意为“起因于;由……造成”,所以此处为介词from。
【43题详解】
考查副词。句意:在莫斯科,这场盛大的庆祝活动自2022年以来定期举办。此处修饰动词held,需用副词,regular的副词形式为regularly意为“定期地”。
【44题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:俄罗斯去年十二月对中国公民实行的免签政策,让出行变得便利得多,也加深了国际友谊。much修饰形容词比较级,convenient的比较级为more convenient。
【45题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:在过去几十年里,历史悠久、丰富多彩的中华文化被介绍到世界各国,并通过各类精彩活动收获外国人的喜爱与赞赏。此处为谓语动词,根据时间状语over the past decades可知用现在完成时,主语Chinese culture与introduce之间为被动关系,所以用现在完成时的被动语态,且主语为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为has been introduced。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Jake lived with his mother in a small apartment in a city of the UK. His father had battled cancer for years and passed away last year, leaving him a bike as a precious memory. For Jake, this bike was not just a means of transport — it was the only way for him to get to school every day, and also a warm reminder of his father.
To support Jake through high school, his mother worked hard, taking on three part-time jobs: cleaning hotel toilets, washing dishes in a restaurant and delivering leaflets around the neighborhood. She came home late every night, tired out, but never complained. Deeply understanding how tough his mother’s life was, he never asked for anything extra and kept studying hard.
One Friday afternoon, Jake locked his bike outside a bookstore and stepped inside. When he came out, the bike was nowhere to be found. He searched the streets crazily, but all his efforts were useless. His heart sank. He was afraid to tell his mother the truth, aware that her tight budget simply couldn’t afford a new bike.
He was wandering aimlessly along the sidewalk when Mr. Smith, a retired teacher, passed by him on a bike. Jake’s eyes widened because the bike looked almost identical to his lost one. He ran after Mr. Smith until he parked his bike at the gate of a big house and went in without locking it. He looked up and down the bike only to find it wasn’t his at all. Overwhelmed by desperation, Jake hesitated for a second, then jumped on the bike and rode home as fast as possible.
His mother didn’t notice anything different. But Jake lay awake all night long, feeling guilty. He knew he had made a terrible mistake, so he made up his mind to return the bike the next morning and buy a second-hand one with his saved lunch money.
The next morning, Jake got up early and rode the bike back to the gate of the big house, his heart pounding with nervousness.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150个左右;

Just as he parked it, Mr. Smith walked out.

“Young man, the bike is yours now. Here is the key,” Mr. Smith said gently.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Just as he parked it, Mr. Smith walked out. “Sorry, Sir. I...I was the one who rode your bike away without permission.” Jake lowered his head, apologizing in a trembling voice, his face pale with fear and deep guilt. Mr. Smith patted him on the shoulder, asking him to calm down and tell the whole story. Choked with tears, Jake poured all out — his father’s death, his beloved lost bike and his wrong choice driven by helplessness. Mr. Smith listened quietly, his eyes full of sympathy. He didn’t blame Jake at all. Instead, he determined to give him a big surprise.
“Young man, the bike is yours now. Here is the key,” Mr. Smith said gently. Jake lifted his head in shock and refused immediately, saying he had made a big mistake and didn’t deserve such kindness. But Mr. Smith insisted, “Honesty and the courage to correct mistakes matter a lot. Just keep it.” Holding the key tightly in his hand, Jake bowed deeply to express his sincere gratitude. On his ride home, the fresh wind brushed his face softly, filling his heart with warmth, strength and hope. He made a firm resolution that when he grew up, he would pass on this kindness to people in need, just as the warm-hearted man had done for him.
