It was a feeling of overwhelming weakness. Despite having a burning thirst, she was unable to lift her head for a sip of water. She could not eat because she would immediately throw up. She would shake violently, feeling freezing cold even though she had a dangerously high fever. When Krystal and her two younger brothers were growing up, their mother worked to support the family. When one of her children got malaria, the mother was left with the impossible decision of whether to stay at home and care for her sick child or go to work to earn money to pay for the treatment. The horrific impact that malaria had on her family and community inspired Krystal to dedicate her life to terminating the disease. Today, Krystal works as a field entomologist at the Uganda Virus Research Institute on a project called Target Malaria, which aims to develop genetic technology to reduce mosquito populations and interrupt transmission of the disease. But children there can’t wait. Uganda’s tropical climate and mix of warm, humid forests and large agricultural settlements create a fertile breeding ground for mosquitoes that carry malaria. Luckily, the Global Fund is there to help. Krystal says that the Global Fund’s arrival in Uganda was a game changer. By 2023, with its support, the usage rate of long-lasting insecticidal nets among at-risk groups in Uganda had reached 53%, and over 95% of people with symptoms received malaria tests. Uganda reported 12.6 million malaria cases in 2023, remaining a high-burden country, but the fund’s 2.7 billion US dollars investment in malaria control across high-burden countries including Uganda in 2024 has sustained progress in prevention. Today, Krystal is a mother to a three-year-old son, Theo. She is thankful that she does not face the same challenges that her mother did. And she believes that with joint efforts, malaria will be greatly reduced as a threat to children’s childhoods in Uganda. 4. What can we learn from Krystal’s experience at five? A. Malaria spread fast among kids. B. Malaria used to be common in Uganda. C. Malaria had similar symptoms to a cold. D. Malaria was a greatly threatening disease. 5. What does the underlined word “terminating” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Ending. B. Curing. C. Demonstrating. D. Researching. 6. How does the author stress the Global Fund’s significance? A. By quoting Krystal’s words. B. By telling stories related to malaria. C. By giving specific achievement data. D. By listing its scientific breakthroughs. 7. Which of the following best describes Krystal? A. Tolerant. B. Sympathetic. C. Considerate. D. Innovative. 【答案】4. D 5. A 6. C 7. B 【解析】 【导语】讲述了克里斯特尔幼时饱受疟疾折磨，心怀善意投身防疫工作。全球基金助力当地防控初见成效，她期盼合力消除疟疾对当地孩童的危害。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Krystal Mwesiga Birungi vividly remembers the first time she had malaria when she was just five years old. It was a feeling of overwhelming weakness. Despite having a burning thirst, she was unable to lift her head for a sip of water. She could not eat because she would immediately throw up. She would shake violently, feeling freezing cold even though she had a dangerously high fever. (克里斯托尔·姆韦西加·比鲁尼尼清楚地记得自己五岁时第一次患疟疾的情景。那种极度虚弱的感觉令人心悸。尽管极度口渴，但她却无法抬起头去喝一口水。她无法进食，因为一吃东西就会呕吐。她会剧烈颤抖，尽管体温高得危险，但她却感到浑身冰冷。)”可知，从克丽丝汀五岁时的经历中，可得知疟疾是一种极具威胁性的疾病。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The horrific impact that malaria had on her family and community inspired Krystal to dedicate her life to (疟疾给她的家庭和社区带来的可怕影响，促使克里斯托决定将自己的一生奉献给……)”可知，目睹疟疾危害立志消灭该疾病。故划线词意思是“消灭，结束”。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“By 2023, with its support, the usage rate of long-lasting insecticidal nets among at-risk groups in Uganda had reached 53%, and over 95% of people with symptoms received malaria tests. Uganda reported 12.6 million malaria cases in 2023, remaining a high-burden country, but the fund’s 2.7 billion US dollars investment in malaria control across high-burden countries including Uganda in 2024 has sustained progress in prevention. (到2023年，在其支持下，乌干达高危人群使用长效杀虫蚊帐的比例已达到53%，且超过95%的有症状人群接受了疟疾检测。乌干达在2023年报告了1260万例疟疾病例，仍为高负担国家，但该基金2024年在包括乌干达在内的高负担国家对疟疾控制的27亿美元投资使预防工作得以持续推进。)”可知，作者通过提供具体的成就数据强调全球基金的重要性。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“The horrific impact that malaria had on her family and community inspired Krystal to dedicate her life to terminating the disease. (疟疾给她的家庭和社区带来的可怕影响，促使克里斯托决定将自己的一生奉献给消灭这种疾病的工作。)”可知，克里斯托亲身受灾后投身疟疾防治，心怀他人疾苦，说明其有同情心。 C In recent years, a new trend has become common in branding: everyday products such as food, drinks and even tools are given human features, like smiling faces and simple arms and legs. These lively images can now be seen in shops, advertisements and online platforms. They are often bright in color and simple in form, which makes them easy to notice and remember. This raises a question: why are such cartoon-like designs so popular? One reason is their emotional appeal. In a fast-paced and sometimes stressful world, people are naturally drawn to things that are simple and enjoyable. Compared with more serious or formal designs, these playful images can make people feel relaxed. By giving human qualities to ordinary objects, brands can create a friendly image and connect more easily with consumers. In this way, products become more engaging and easier to remember, which may influence people’s choices. Another reason is the inheritance of earlier artistic styles. This kind of design can be traced back to early animation, where characters were drawn with simple shapes and clear expressions. Today’s designers combine these elements with modern tastes, creating images that feel both familiar and new. As a result, such designs are accepted by people of different ages and are widely used in different industries, from food to fashion. However, the wide use of this style has also caused problems. With the help of digital tools, many businesses can produce similar designs with little effort. In some cases, companies even rely on ready-made templates (模板) instead of original ideas. As a result, different brands may begin to look alike, making it harder for consumers to tell them apart. This may weaken the unique image that a brand tries to build. Despite these concerns, this trend is unlikely to disappear soon. It reflects people’s desire for simple and enjoyable experiences in modern life. The key issue, therefore, is how such designs can be used in a more creative way, rather than simply copied. 8. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. The popularity of cartoon-like images in different places. B. The variety of products that now use cartoon-like designs. C. The growing use of human-like features in product branding. D. The bright colors and simple forms that make products noticeable. 9. What kind of designs do consumers tend to prefer? A. Those helping to ease their pressure. B. Those stressing serious product qualities. C. Those bearing complicated human features. D. Those keeping with traditional formal styles. 10. What does the underlined word “inheritance” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Origin. B. Copy. C. Tradition. D. Influence. 11. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Digital tools encourage unique design ideas. B. Ready-made templates improve design efficiency. C. Consumers actively support creative brand images. D. Similar designs may weaken a brand’s unique identity. 【答案】8. C 9. A 10. D 11. D 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍近年来在品牌塑造中，日常产品赋予人类特征的卡通式设计流行这一趋势，分析其流行原因，也指出广泛使用带来的问题，强调应创造性使用这种设计。 【8题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“In recent years, a new trend has become common in branding: everyday products such as food, drinks and even tools are given human features, like smiling faces and simple arms and legs. These lively images can now be seen in shops, advertisements and online platforms.(近年来，品牌塑造中出现了一种新趋势：食品、饮料甚至工具等日常产品都被赋予了人类特征，比如笑脸、简单的胳膊和腿。这些生动的形象现在可以在商店、广告和网络平台上看到)”可知，第一段主要讲的是在产品品牌塑造中越来越多地使用类人特征。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In a fast-paced and sometimes stressful world, people are naturally drawn to things that are simple and enjoyable. Compared with more serious or formal designs, these playful images can make people feel relaxed.(在一个快节奏且有时充满压力的世界里，人们自然会被简单且令人愉悦的事物所吸引。与更严肃或正式的设计相比，这些有趣的形象能让人感到放松)”可知，消费者倾向于选择能帮助缓解压力的设计。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段划线词下文“This kind of design can be traced back to early animation, where characters were drawn with simple shapes and clear expressions. Today’s designers combine these elements with modern tastes, creating images that feel both familiar and new.(这种设计可以追溯到早期的动画，那时的角色是用简单的形状和清晰的表情绘制的。如今的设计师将这些元素与现代审美相结合，创造出既熟悉又新颖的形象)”可知，现在的设计受到早期艺术风格的影响，所以“inheritance”意思是“影响”。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“As a result, different brands may begin to look alike, making it harder for consumers to tell them apart. This may weaken the unique image that a brand tries to build.(结果，不同品牌可能开始看起来很相似，这使得消费者更难区分它们。这可能会削弱一个品牌试图建立的独特形象)”可知，相似的设计可能会削弱品牌的独特身份。 D Archaeologists working in the Nile Delta of Egypt may have discovered a structure traced back to around 2,600 years ago while testing a new technology designed to locate structures buried deep beneath the surface. The team was studying the Buto site, the ruins of an ancient city that was occupied from the Predynastic period to the Early Islamic era. During its long history, Buto was built, destroyed, and rebuilt, and consequently has several layers, each potentially a rich source of archaeological remains. However, the oldest parts of the city are now buried beneath later ruins and thick mud deposits. This would make traditional digging difficult, time-consuming, and expensive, as archaeologists have to move large tons of debris or struggle with groundwater to reach lower levels. The researchers were trialing an integrated approach that uses satellite radar and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). The team started with Sentinel-1 radar satellites to identify large-scale anomalies (异常事物) from space. When it detected something of interest, they followed up with ERT, which sends electrical currents between a series of electrodes placed in the ground to create a three-dimensional model of subsurface structures based on how different materials conduct or resist electricity. This technique has been likened to an underground “CT scan”. The scans showed that while the upper layers contained some remains from later historical periods, a large, well-defined structure lay at a depth of between three and six meters, dating back about 2,600 years. At this stage, the researchers thought it could be a large tomb or temple. Guided by these results, they carried out a small excavation (挖掘), which uncovered mudbrick walls and religious artifacts where the sensors had predicted. The results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of combining geophysical measurements and remote sensing data, which can accurately detect buried settlements in a complex region. The researchers now plan to expand these surveys with larger equipment to reach even deeper, older levels and they believe their integrated approach can be used to map other archaeological sites before anyone has to pick up a shovel. 12. What is the primary purpose of the technology used in the study? A. To replace traditional excavation with advanced imaging tools. B. To uncover ancient artifacts without disturbing the site. C. To examine the historical layers of the Buto site in detail. D. To assist archaeologists in identifying where to excavate. 13. Why is traditional excavation at Buto considered challenging? A. The equipment required is not available for large-scale digging. B. The site contains remains from multiple historical periods. C. The deeper layers are hidden beneath later deposits and groundwater. D. The mudbrick structures are too fragile to survive excavation. 14. What is the role of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) in the research? A. It detects large-scale anomalies from satellite images. B. It generates a 3D image of underground structures. C. It determines whether a site contains valuable artifacts. D. It removes obstacles that block access to deeper layers. 15. What can be inferred about the integrated approach used by the researchers? A. It is mainly useful for studying surface-level remains. B. It will ultimately replace traditional excavation. C. It combines satellite radar with ground-based methods. D. It allows for more efficient archaeological exploration. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了考古学家利用卫星雷达与电阻率成像技术在埃及尼罗河三角洲探测古城遗址的研究过程与成果。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Guided by these results, they carried out a small excavation (挖掘), which uncovered mudbrick walls and religious artifacts where the sensors had predicted.(基于这些探测结果的指引，他们开展了一项小规模挖掘，并在传感器此前预测的位置发现了泥砖墙与宗教器物)”以及最后一段中的“The results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of combining geophysical measurements and remote sensing data, which can accurately detect buried settlements in a complex region.(这项研究的结果证明了将地球物理测量和遥感数据相结合的有效性，可以准确地检测复杂地区的埋藏定居点)”可知，该技术的主要目的是帮助考古学家确定挖掘位置，而非替代挖掘。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“However, the oldest parts of the city are now buried beneath later ruins and thick mud deposits. This would make traditional digging difficult, time-consuming, and expensive, as archaeologists have to move large tons of debris or struggle with groundwater to reach lower levels.(然而，这座城市最古老的部分现在被埋在后来的废墟和厚厚的泥土沉积物之下。这将使传统的挖掘变得困难、耗时且昂贵，因为考古学家必须移动大量碎片或与地下水斗争才能达到较低的水位)”可知，传统挖掘困难的原因是深层遗迹被后期堆积物和地下水覆盖。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“When it detected something of interest, they followed up with ERT, which sends electrical currents between a series of electrodes placed in the ground to create a three-dimensional model of subsurface structures based on how different materials conduct or resist electricity. This technique has been likened to an underground “CT scan”.(当它检测到感兴趣的东西时，他们跟进ERT，ERT在放置在地下的一系列电极之间发送电流，根据不同材料的导电或抗电方式创建地下结构的三维模型。这项技术被比作地下“CT扫描”)”可知，ERT的作用是生成地下结构的三维图像。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“The results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of combining geophysical measurements and remote sensing data, which can accurately detect buried settlements in a complex region. The researchers now plan to expand these surveys with larger equipment to reach even deeper, older levels and they believe their integrated approach can be used to map other archaeological sites before anyone has to pick up a shovel.(这项研究的结果证明了将地球物理测量和遥感数据相结合的有效性，可以准确地检测复杂地区的埋藏定居点。研究人员现在计划用更大的设备扩大这些调查，以达到更深、更古老的水平，他们相信他们的综合方法可以在任何人拿起铲子之前用于绘制其他考古遗址的地图)”可推断，综合方法结合了卫星雷达与地面技术，提升了考古勘探的效率。 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。 In recent years, weight training has experienced an increase in popularity.

What 39. cutting 40. and 41. an 42. China’s 43. was attacked 44. where 45. despite 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍热播剧《生万物》取材于青海反盗猎英雄的真实事迹，讲述可可西里藏羚羊保护工作的艰险以及环保守护者的奉献与牺牲。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：热播电视剧《生万物》取材于青海真实的反盗猎英雄，让人们再次关注这场守护藏羚羊的艰难斗争。固定搭配the fight to do sth.意为“为做某事而进行的斗争”，所以使用protect的不定式形式to protect作后置定语。 【37题详解】 考查形容词。句意：在该剧的开篇片段中，一名女警和一名山地巡逻员在深夜停下卡车，担心自己意外撞到了藏羚羊。此处修饰名词collision，需用形容词，accident的形容词形式为accidental意为“意外的”。 【38题详解】 考查主语从句。句意：映入眼帘的景象令他们无比震惊，一群藏羚羊惨遭猎杀，尸体散落于冰封的土地上。此处引导主语从句，从句中缺少主语，指代事物，用连接代词what，位于句首，首字母需大写。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：突然，六辆卡车的车灯骤然亮起，光束划破黑夜。此处为独立主格结构，逻辑主语beams与cut为主动关系，用现在分词cutting。 【40题详解】 考查连词。句意：枪声四起，随后巡逻员倒在血泊之中。前后分句为顺承并列关系，用并列连词and连接。 【41题详解】 考查冠词。句意：索南达杰是一名藏族干部，返乡担任公职，并在1992年组建了中国第一支武装反盗猎队伍。ethnic Tibetan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，此处表泛指，ethnic以元音音素开头，用不定冠词an。 【42题详解】 考查名词所有格。句意：索南达杰是一名藏族干部，返乡担任公职，并在1992年组建了中国第一支武装反盗猎队伍。此处修饰名词team，需用名词所有格表示所属关系，所以使用China的所有格形式China’s。 【43题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：1994年，他在押送被捕盗猎分子的途中遭到袭击。此处为谓语动词，时间状语In 1994表过去，主语he与attack为被动关系，用一般过去时的被动语态，且主语为第三人场单数，所以谓语动词为was attacked。 【44题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在一场独自对抗十八名歹徒的激烈枪战过后，他中弹牺牲。此处引导定语从句，先行词为gunfight，表抽象地点，从句中缺少地点状语，用关系副词where。 【45题详解】 考查介词。句意：他牺牲后，扎巴多杰重新整编队伍，并将其命名为“野牦牛队”，这个名字寓意：牦牛本是性情温顺的动物，可一旦领地遭到侵犯，便会无畏奋起反抗。此空位于句首，无提示词，空后为名词，所以此处为介词，结合句意，此处表示让步关系，意为“尽管；虽然”，用介词despite。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，校英文报就食堂午餐时段播放的电视节目类型向同学们征求意见，可供选择的有“时事新闻类”和“音乐类”，请你给编辑写一封邮件发表你的意见，内容包括： (1)你的选择； (2)你的理由 注意: (1)写作词数应为80个左右。(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Editor, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Editor, I’m writing to express my views on the TV programs played in the school canteen at lunchtime.

Ethan Carter, a 17-year-old high school student, sat in the backseat of a ride-hailing car (网约车), holding his exam bag tightly. He was going to take an exam today. Next to him sat his classmate, Liam Bennett. They had been good friends since freshman year, often studying together and encouraging each other through tough times. The ride-hailing driver, Mr Henderson, a kind middle-aged man, drove steadily, keeping an eye on the time to ensure they arrived at the exam site on schedule. Ethan took a deep breath, reviewing key knowledge in his mind, while Liam looked out the window, a little anxious yet excited about the upcoming exam. Suddenly, without any warning, Liam let out a soft groan (呻吟) and fell forward in his seat. His eyes rolled back, and he stopped breathing. Ethan’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized something was terribly wrong. “Liam! Liam, wake up!” he shouted, shaking his friend gently, but there was no response. Mr Henderson glanced at the rear-view mirror, and his face turned pale with panic. Ethan didn’t hesitate. He had learned first aid in his school’s health class, and all the training kicked in at that moment. He quickly moved Liam into a flat position, checked his pulse and breathing, and found that Liam had suffered a sudden cardiac arrest (心脏停搏). Without wasting a second, Ethan started performing CPR — pressing firmly on Liam’s chest and giving him rescue breaths, repeating the process over and over, his hands shaking but his movements steady. “Hold on, Liam. You’ll be okay!” Ethan whispered, his voice tight with worry but full of determination. Mr Henderson, realizing the urgency, turned on the emergency lights and honked his horn. He kept reassuring Ethan, “We’ll get to the hospital soon, kid. Keep going, you’re doing great.” Ten minutes later, they finally reached the hospital. 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。 Medical staff took Liam from Ethan’s arms and rushed him to the emergency room. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, when he arrived at the exam center, the teacher gently shook her head. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Medical staff took Liam from Ethan’s arms and rushed him to the emergency room. All this happened so suddenly that Ethan felt exhausted and terrified, his hands trembling uncontrollably. Without hesitation, Ethan informed Liam’s parents of the whole incident. Minutes felt like hours until a doctor finally emerged, pulling down his mask with a tired smile. “He is stable,” the doctor announced. “Your quick action restarted his heart and saved his life.” Overwhelmed with relief, Ethan sank into a chair, tears streaming down his face, realizing his friend was safe. However, when he arrived at the exam center, the teacher gently shook her head. “I’m sorry, Ethan, but the exam has already concluded,” she said softly. Ethan felt a lump in his throat, realizing he had sacrificed his own opportunity. Yet, as he looked at his phone and saw a message from Liam’s parents thanking him, the disappointment vanished. He knew he had passed a far more important test that day — the test of humanity and friendship. Walking out into the sunlight, he felt a profound sense of peace. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索。Ethan和Liam一起乘坐网约车参加考试，路上Liam突发心脏骤停，Ethan沉着施救，司机奋力将其送到医院，由于拯救及时，Liam最终脱离危险，虽然这件事让Ethan错过了考试，但他通过了人性和友谊的测试。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可以描写在医院发生的事情，Ethan惊魂未定却依然告知Liam父母情况，最终Liam成功脱离危险。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可以描写Ethan没能参加考试感到失望，但拯救朋友让他通过了人性和友谊的测试。 2. 段落续写： 送到急救室——Ethan惊魂未定——告知Liam父母——Liam脱离危险——Ethan没赶上考试——内心失望但拯救朋友让他收获满足 3. 词汇激活： 行为类 ①出现：emerge/turn up ②消失：vanish/disappear 情绪类 ①害怕：terrified/afraid ②失望：disappointment/upset 【点睛】【高分句型1】All this happened so suddenly that Ethan felt exhausted and terrified, his hands trembling uncontrollably.(使用了so…that…引导结果状语从句、独立主格结构) 【高分句型2】Overwhelmed with relief, Ethan sank into a chair, tears streaming down his face, realizing his friend was safe.

It was a feeling of overwhelming weakness. Despite having a burning thirst, she was unable to lift her head for a sip of water. She could not eat because she would immediately throw up. She would shake violently, feeling freezing cold even though she had a dangerously high fever. When Krystal and her two younger brothers were growing up, their mother worked to support the family. When one of her children got malaria, the mother was left with the impossible decision of whether to stay at home and care for her sick child or go to work to earn money to pay for the treatment. The horrific impact that malaria had on her family and community inspired Krystal to dedicate her life to terminating the disease. Today, Krystal works as a field entomologist at the Uganda Virus Research Institute on a project called Target Malaria, which aims to develop genetic technology to reduce mosquito populations and interrupt transmission of the disease. But children there can’t wait. Uganda’s tropical climate and mix of warm, humid forests and large agricultural settlements create a fertile breeding ground for mosquitoes that carry malaria. Luckily, the Global Fund is there to help. Krystal says that the Global Fund’s arrival in Uganda was a game changer. By 2023, with its support, the usage rate of long-lasting insecticidal nets among at-risk groups in Uganda had reached 53%, and over 95% of people with symptoms received malaria tests. Uganda reported 12.6 million malaria cases in 2023, remaining a high-burden country, but the fund’s 2.7 billion US dollars investment in malaria control across high-burden countries including Uganda in 2024 has sustained progress in prevention. Today, Krystal is a mother to a three-year-old son, Theo. She is thankful that she does not face the same challenges that her mother did. And she believes that with joint efforts, malaria will be greatly reduced as a threat to children’s childhoods in Uganda. 4. What can we learn from Krystal’s experience at five? A. Malaria spread fast among kids. B. Malaria used to be common in Uganda. C. Malaria had similar symptoms to a cold. D. Malaria was a greatly threatening disease. 5. What does the underlined word “terminating” in Paragraph 3 mean? A. Ending. B. Curing. C. Demonstrating. D. Researching. 6. How does the author stress the Global Fund’s significance? A. By quoting Krystal’s words. B. By telling stories related to malaria. C. By giving specific achievement data. D. By listing its scientific breakthroughs. 7. Which of the following best describes Krystal? A. Tolerant. B. Sympathetic. C. Considerate. D. Innovative. C In recent years, a new trend has become common in branding: everyday products such as food, drinks and even tools are given human features, like smiling faces and simple arms and legs. These lively images can now be seen in shops, advertisements and online platforms. They are often bright in color and simple in form, which makes them easy to notice and remember. This raises a question: why are such cartoon-like designs so popular? One reason is their emotional appeal. In a fast-paced and sometimes stressful world, people are naturally drawn to things that are simple and enjoyable. Compared with more serious or formal designs, these playful images can make people feel relaxed. By giving human qualities to ordinary objects, brands can create a friendly image and connect more easily with consumers. In this way, products become more engaging and easier to remember, which may influence people’s choices. Another reason is the inheritance of earlier artistic styles. This kind of design can be traced back to early animation, where characters were drawn with simple shapes and clear expressions. Today’s designers combine these elements with modern tastes, creating images that feel both familiar and new. As a result, such designs are accepted by people of different ages and are widely used in different industries, from food to fashion. However, the wide use of this style has also caused problems. With the help of digital tools, many businesses can produce similar designs with little effort. In some cases, companies even rely on ready-made templates (模板) instead of original ideas. As a result, different brands may begin to look alike, making it harder for consumers to tell them apart. This may weaken the unique image that a brand tries to build. Despite these concerns, this trend is unlikely to disappear soon. It reflects people’s desire for simple and enjoyable experiences in modern life. The key issue, therefore, is how such designs can be used in a more creative way, rather than simply copied. 8. What does the first paragraph mainly talk about? A. The popularity of cartoon-like images in different places. B. The variety of products that now use cartoon-like designs. C. The growing use of human-like features in product branding. D. The bright colors and simple forms that make products noticeable. 9. What kind of designs do consumers tend to prefer? A. Those helping to ease their pressure. B. Those stressing serious product qualities. C. Those bearing complicated human features. D. Those keeping with traditional formal styles. 10. What does the underlined word “inheritance” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Origin. B. Copy. C. Tradition. D. Influence. 11. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Digital tools encourage unique design ideas. B. Ready-made templates improve design efficiency. C. Consumers actively support creative brand images. D. Similar designs may weaken a brand’s unique identity. D Archaeologists working in the Nile Delta of Egypt may have discovered a structure traced back to around 2,600 years ago while testing a new technology designed to locate structures buried deep beneath the surface. The team was studying the Buto site, the ruins of an ancient city that was occupied from the Predynastic period to the Early Islamic era. During its long history, Buto was built, destroyed, and rebuilt, and consequently has several layers, each potentially a rich source of archaeological remains. However, the oldest parts of the city are now buried beneath later ruins and thick mud deposits. This would make traditional digging difficult, time-consuming, and expensive, as archaeologists have to move large tons of debris or struggle with groundwater to reach lower levels. The researchers were trialing an integrated approach that uses satellite radar and electrical resistivity tomography (ERT). The team started with Sentinel-1 radar satellites to identify large-scale anomalies (异常事物) from space. When it detected something of interest, they followed up with ERT, which sends electrical currents between a series of electrodes placed in the ground to create a three-dimensional model of subsurface structures based on how different materials conduct or resist electricity. This technique has been likened to an underground “CT scan”. The scans showed that while the upper layers contained some remains from later historical periods, a large, well-defined structure lay at a depth of between three and six meters, dating back about 2,600 years. At this stage, the researchers thought it could be a large tomb or temple. Guided by these results, they carried out a small excavation (挖掘), which uncovered mudbrick walls and religious artifacts where the sensors had predicted. The results of this study demonstrate the effectiveness of combining geophysical measurements and remote sensing data, which can accurately detect buried settlements in a complex region. The researchers now plan to expand these surveys with larger equipment to reach even deeper, older levels and they believe their integrated approach can be used to map other archaeological sites before anyone has to pick up a shovel. 12. What is the primary purpose of the technology used in the study? A. To replace traditional excavation with advanced imaging tools. B. To uncover ancient artifacts without disturbing the site. C. To examine the historical layers of the Buto site in detail. D. To assist archaeologists in identifying where to excavate. 13. Why is traditional excavation at Buto considered challenging? A. The equipment required is not available for large-scale digging. B. The site contains remains from multiple historical periods. C. The deeper layers are hidden beneath later deposits and groundwater. D. The mudbrick structures are too fragile to survive excavation. 14. What is the role of electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) in the research? A. It detects large-scale anomalies from satellite images. B. It generates a 3D image of underground structures. C. It determines whether a site contains valuable artifacts. D. It removes obstacles that block access to deeper layers. 15. What can be inferred about the integrated approach used by the researchers? A. It is mainly useful for studying surface-level remains. B. It will ultimately replace traditional excavation. C. It combines satellite radar with ground-based methods. D. It allows for more efficient archaeological exploration. 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。 In recent years, weight training has experienced an increase in popularity.

Ethan Carter, a 17-year-old high school student, sat in the backseat of a ride-hailing car (网约车), holding his exam bag tightly. He was going to take an exam today. Next to him sat his classmate, Liam Bennett. They had been good friends since freshman year, often studying together and encouraging each other through tough times. The ride-hailing driver, Mr Henderson, a kind middle-aged man, drove steadily, keeping an eye on the time to ensure they arrived at the exam site on schedule. Ethan took a deep breath, reviewing key knowledge in his mind, while Liam looked out the window, a little anxious yet excited about the upcoming exam. Suddenly, without any warning, Liam let out a soft groan (呻吟) and fell forward in his seat. His eyes rolled back, and he stopped breathing. Ethan’s heart skipped a beat, and he immediately realized something was terribly wrong. “Liam! Liam, wake up!” he shouted, shaking his friend gently, but there was no response. Mr Henderson glanced at the rear-view mirror, and his face turned pale with panic. Ethan didn’t hesitate. He had learned first aid in his school’s health class, and all the training kicked in at that moment. He quickly moved Liam into a flat position, checked his pulse and breathing, and found that Liam had suffered a sudden cardiac arrest (心脏停搏). Without wasting a second, Ethan started performing CPR — pressing firmly on Liam’s chest and giving him rescue breaths, repeating the process over and over, his hands shaking but his movements steady. “Hold on, Liam. You’ll be okay!” Ethan whispered, his voice tight with worry but full of determination. Mr Henderson, realizing the urgency, turned on the emergency lights and honked his horn. He kept reassuring Ethan, “We’ll get to the hospital soon, kid. Keep going, you’re doing great.” Ten minutes later, they finally reached the hospital. 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。 Medical staff took Liam from Ethan’s arms and rushed him to the emergency room. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ However, when he arrived at the exam center, the teacher gently shook her head. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
