【解析】
【原文】M: Now, Linda, let’s talk about your first job.
W: Well, I was an assistant in an expensive cake shop in the small town where I lived. My boss was always polite, never shouted at us, even when we dropped things, and that was good for a young woman like me who wasn’t very confident. He knew everything about the business. I had no proper training, but it was a good experience working for someone with so much knowledge. He didn’t pay us well, but I didn’t expect to earn much in my first job.
M: Did you do any of the baking yourself?
W: There were two cooks who were specialists in making cakes for celebrations. I loved watching them at work, but I wasn’t allowed to touch the ones on display in the windows. We sold sandwiches at lunchtime — again, very expensive ones, and the shop assistants had to make those.
M: How did you get on with the other shop assistants?
W: One of them was my best friend, which was great, but the full-time staff sometimes treated us badly because we couldn’t cook. But I was surprised that the full-time assistants couldn’t add up in their head. I was good at it, but they used calculators if there was anything difficult to work out.

【原文】W: Welcome to the International Language College. It’s a beautiful place that is well worth visiting in this city. As you can see there are a lot of buildings in the college. As new students, you might find it difficult to find your way in the college, so we will take you on a quick tour. The college used to have four departments: English, French, German and Russian, but now there is a Chinese department as well and we are going to set up a Spanish department next year. At the moment we’re outside your department, the English department. Compared with other departments, it is the largest department in the college. In the English department there are over 200 students, 30 students in each class. We have 50 teachers, including 20 professors in this department. The teachers are all from different countries, mainly from the U.S.A. and Australia, with a few from England and Canada. All of your classes will be here in this building. In the French department, there are over 150 students, and 40 teachers mainly from France and Canada. In the Russian department, we have more than 120 students, and 28 teachers from Russia and Ukraine. Now, let’s walk over to the main library which is the largest building in the college and is just next to the English department building. But I must remind you that this tour doesn’t include a visit to the reading rooms. I’m afraid we don’t do visits on any weekday during working hours, so as not to disturb the readers. If you do want to see these rooms, the only day there are tours is on Sundays. That’s to say, you can visit them the day after tomorrow.
第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分50分)

阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Getting Along with Grizzlies (灰熊)
Almost three-quarters of all young females that grow up in the Elk Valley die young. In fact, after — tracking-70 bears between 2016 and 2022, experts found survival rates for young grizzlies in the Elk Valley are the lowest recorded in North America.
Causes of grizzly deaths
Deaths of the 15 tracked bears during that period:
Challenges to human-bear coexistence in the Elk Valley
Measures taken
Since April 2024, the government has taken effort to help humans and bears share the landscape. One of the most effective tools is electric fencing, which reduces damage to infrastructure (基础设施) by 80%-100%. It keeps bears away from attractants like garbage, which reduces conflicts. These simple,low-cost measures are saving lives — on both sides. As someone puts it,“Coexistence is a two-way street.If we want bears to survive, we have to be willing to change, too.”
21. How many tracked grizzlies died due to human-related causes?
A. 40%. B. 46.6%. C. 86.6%. D. 93.3%.
22. Why is the number of grizzlies stable in the Elk Valley?
A. Their death rate decreases. B. Some learn to travel safely.
C. Their survival gets protected. D. Some move in from nearby.
23. What is the main function of electric fencing?
A. Saving humans from bears. B. Preventing conflict and loss.
C. Letting bears trust humans. D. Cutting the bear control cost.
【答案】21. C 22. D 23. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了麋鹿谷(Elk Valley)灰熊的生存现状、与人熊共存的挑战与应对措施。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据柱状图可知,与人类相关的原因:Conflict with Humans(与人类发生冲突) 46.6% + Vehicle Crashes(车辆撞击) 40%,由此可知,计算总和46.6%+40%=86.6%。故选C。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据右侧文本框“There has been little change to the bear population in the Elk Valley, which is actually supported by the arrival of bears from neighboring wilder areas. But these bears are young and tend to cause conflicts.(麋鹿谷的灰熊数量几乎没有变化,这实际上是由周边野生区域的灰熊迁入支撑的。但这些灰熊多为幼熊,容易引发冲突。)”可知,麋鹿谷的灰熊数量保持稳定的原因是部分灰熊从周边迁入。故选D。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“One of the most effective tools is electric fencing, which reduces damage to infrastructure by 80%-100%. It keeps bears away from attractants like garbage, which reduces conflicts. These simple, low-cost measures are saving lives — on both sides.(最有效的工具之一是电围栏,可减少 80%-100% 的基础设施损坏;它将灰熊隔绝在垃圾等吸引物之外,减少冲突;这些低成本措施拯救了双方的生命。)”可知,电围栏的主要功能是预防冲突和损失。故选B。
B
Chicago-based Jim Bachor is an expert in fixing up poholes (坑洼) on the streets by filling them up with his beautiful and strong mosaics (马赛克).
In fact, Bachor’s career as a pohole artist began with a trip to the ancient city of Pompeii in Italy, where he learned mosaic could remain for a long time, standing the test of time. The tour guide pointed at a 2,000-year-old artwork and said that although it had gone through so many years, the marble and glass pieces had not fadeD. The realization of the artwork’s staying power blew Bachor away. A few months later he was in Italy learning the secrets of ancient mosaic art and he pursued it as a hobby for a few years.
In May of 2013 he got the idea of applying his skill to fixing an annoying pohole in his neighborhood. Bachor said. “There was a long-standing pohole right outside our house, which the city repeatedly filled with concrete, yet it kept reappearing.” So, what I did was that I created a special piece of art for that pohole.”
However, creating pohole mosaics was quite different from doing them in the comfort of his own studio. For instance, it was challenging to protect them for a few hours before they became firm. One day, while he accompanied his sons to their soccer practice, the training cones (锥桶) inspired him. Jim Bachor placed them around the pohole mosaics to act as temporary traffic markers, guiding traffic around them.
Bachor started doing pohole mosaics in his neighborhood with many of his neighbors coming to help him, and as his work started getting more attention, he even did some projects in other major cities.
24. What inspired Jim Bachor to be a pohole mosaic artist?
A. The secrets of creating mosaic. B. The beauty of Pompeii’s artworks.
C. Suggestions from Pompeii’s tour guide. D. Pompeii mosaics’ long-lasting capacity.
25. Why did Bachor started his pohole mosaic art in 2013?
A. To fulfill a task from the city. B. To show up his artistic skills.
C. To fix a recurring pohole issue. D. To raise people’s awareness of art.
26. How did Jim Bachor protect his pohole mosaics from damage?
A. He used soccer training cones. B. He asked his sons to help him.
C. He hired workers to direct traffic. D. He applied a quick-drying material.
27. What can we learn from Jim Bachor’s story?
A. Art needs to be passed down. B. Art can solve practical issues.
C. Creativity is the key to success. D. Ancient artworks are the most precious.
【答案】24. D 25. C 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要介绍芝加哥艺术家吉姆·巴科尔受庞贝马赛克启发,用马赛克修复街道坑洼的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In fact, Bachor’s career as a pothole artist began with a trip to the ancient city of Pompeii in Italy, where he learned mosaic could remain for a long time, standing the test of time. The tour guide pointed at a 2,000-year-old artwork and said that although it had gone through so many years, the marble and glass pieces had not faded. The realization of the artwork’s staying power blew Bachor away. (事实上,巴科尔作为坑洼艺术家的职业生涯始于一次意大利古城庞贝的旅行,在那里他了解到马赛克可以保存很长时间,经得起时间的考验。导游指着一件有2000年历史的艺术品说,尽管经历了这么多年,大理石和玻璃碎片都没有褪色。意识到这件艺术品的持久力,巴科尔深受震撼。)”可知,庞贝马赛克的持久保存能力启发了吉姆·巴科尔成为一名坑洼马赛克艺术家。故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“In May of 2013 he got the idea of applying his skill to fixing an annoying pothole in his neighborhood. Bachor said, “There was a long-standing pothole right outside our house, which the city repeatedly filled with concrete, yet it kept reappearing.” So, what I did was that I created a special piece of art for that pothole. (2013年5月,他想到运用自己的技能来修复小区里一个令人讨厌的坑洼。巴科尔说:“我们家门外一直有一个坑洼,市政府反复用混凝土填补,但它总是反复出现。所以,我所做的就是为那个坑洼创作了一件特别的艺术品”)”可知,巴科尔在2013年开始坑洼马赛克艺术,是为了解决一个反复出现的坑洼问题。故选C项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“One day, while he accompanied his sons to their soccer practice, the training cones (锥桶) inspired him. Jim Bachor placed them around the pothole mosaics to act as temporary traffic markers, guiding traffic around them. (有一天,当他陪儿子们去练足球时,训练用的锥桶给了他灵感。吉姆·巴科尔把它们放在坑洼马赛克周围,作为临时交通标志,引导车辆绕过它们。)”可知,吉姆·巴科尔用足球训练锥桶来保护他的坑洼马赛克免受损坏。故选A项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容,并结合第一段“Chicago-based Jim, Bachor is an expert in fixing up potholes (坑洼) on the streets by filling them up with his beautiful and strong mosaics (马赛克) . (芝加哥的Jim,Bachor是修复街道上坑洼的专家,他用美丽而坚固的马赛克填充坑洼。)”和最后一段“Bachor started doing pothole mosaics in his neighborhood with many of his neighbors coming to help him, and as his work started getting more attention, he even did some projects in other major cities. (Bachor开始在他的社区做坑洞马赛克,他的许多邻居都来帮助他,随着他的工作开始受到越来越多的关注,他甚至在其他主要城市做了一些项目。)”可知,吉姆·巴科尔将马赛克艺术与实际问题结合,用艺术的方式修复了反复出现的街道坑洼,既解决了实际的交通隐患,又为城市增添了艺术美感。由此可推断,从吉姆·巴科尔的故事中我们能学到“艺术可以解决实际问题”。故选B项。
C
“Can you finish the work by the end of the day?” This question might cause anxiety for many employees. However, recent research indicates that shorter deadlines can actually help some individuals to complete tasks more efficiently and perceive their workload as less frightening.
In a study focused on retirement planning, volunteers completed a brief online survey under two different deadline conditions. One group had seven days to finish the survey, while the other was given 14 days. The researchers discovered that those facing the longer deadline often viewed the task as more difficult. Although participants with the extended deadline initially invested more time and resources, they were also more likely to procrastinate (拖延) and less likely to complete the assignment compared to those with shorter deadlines.
Recognizing that people frequently deal with multiple deadlines, researchers explored how individuals manage various tasks at the same time. The findings found a mental tendency: individuals often delay important tasks in favor of urgent but less significant ones. For example, many delay routine medical check-ups — crucial for health — in favor of rushing to a store for a limited-time sale. This occurs because important tasks feel more complex and distant, while urgent tasks provide immediate satisfaction.
These patterns have significant results for managers and others involved in setting deadlines. Understanding these mental processes can help find strategies to enhance task completion rates. Short deadlines for urgent tasks tend to draw attention more effectively, leading to higher completion rates and reduced procrastination. On the other hand, longer deadlines can lead to excessive careful thought or distraction, resulting in incomplete work.
However, it’s essential to recognize that longer deadlines may still be necessary for complex tasks, particularly when external factors, such as resource availability or cooperation, require additional time for proper completion. In such cases, a balanced approach is crucial: setting realistic deadlines that account for both urgency and complexity can lead to improved outcomes. By recognizing the minor differences of human motivation, individuals and organizations can develop effective strategies for task management.
28. According to recent research, what may shorter deadlines bring about?
A. Increased stress. B. Higher efficiency.
C. Reduced workload. D. Slower completion.
29. Why do people tend to delay important tasks for urgent ones?
A. Urgent tasks offer instant rewards. B. Urgent tasks are more complicated.
C. Important tasks are less challenging. D. Important tasks needs multi-tasking.
30. How should managers set proper deadlines to improve outcome?
A. Set all tasks with shorter deadlines. B. Prioritize resources and cooperation.
C. Balance task urgency and complexity. D. Extend deadlines for significant tasks.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Role of Urgency in Task Completion B. Strategies for Managing Various Deadlines
C. Influences of Procrastination on Work Quality D. The Power of Deadlines in Task Management
【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇议论文。本文探讨了截止日期对工作效率和工作量感知的影响,指出较短的截止日期可能提高某些人的工作效率,并减少他们对工作量的恐惧。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“However, recent research indicates that shorter deadlines can actually help some individuals to complete tasks more efficiently and perceive their workload as less frightening.(然而,最近的研究表明,较短的截止日期实际上能够帮助一些人更高效地完成任务,并且使他们觉得工作量没有那么大)”可知,较短的截止日期可以提高效率,故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“This occurs because important tasks feel more complex and distant, while urgent tasks provide immediate satisfaction.(这种情况之所以会发生,是因为重要的任务往往显得更为复杂且遥不可及,而紧急的任务则能带来立竿见影的满足感)”可知,人们倾向于推迟重要任务以完成紧急任务,因为紧急任务提供即时满足,故选A。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“In such cases, a balanced approach is crucial: setting realistic deadlines that account for both urgency and complexity can lead to improved outcomes.(在这种情况下,采取平衡的策略至关重要:设定既符合实际又兼顾紧迫性和复杂性的截止日期,这样能够带来更好的结果)”可知,管理者应该平衡任务的紧迫性和复杂性来设定合适的截止日期,故选C。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段““Can you finish the work by the end of the day?” This question might cause anxiety for many employees. However, recent research indicates that shorter deadlines can actually help some individuals to complete tasks more efficiently and perceive their workload as less frightening.(“你能在今天结束前完成这项工作吗?”这个问题可能会让许多员工感到焦虑。然而,最近的研究表明,较短的截止日期实际上能够帮助一些人更高效地完成任务,并且使他们觉得工作量没有那么大)”以及文章主要讨论了截止日期对任务完成情况的影响,包括如何提高任务完成率和减少拖延,因此最佳标题是D选项“截止日期在任务管理中的力量”。故选D。
D
Nile crocodiles are uniquely sensitive to the cries of painful primate (灵长类) babies, according to a new study — and the more anxious the cry, the more interested they become. To make the find, Nicolas Grimault, a scientist at the University of Lyon, and his colleagues visited a zoo in Morocco, which houses more than 300 Nile crocodiles. The researchers set up loudspeakers alongside four ponds where, at each, as many as 25 crocodiles sunbathed on red rocks. The speakers played a series of cries expressing varying levels of pain from primate babies. The cries were recorded in different situations to find out which aspects of the voices interest the crocs most.
Many of the crocs, male and female, responded to the cries by suddenly turning their heads, seeking out the source of the sound, rapidly approaching the loudspeaker and sometimes even biting it. One individual even showed protective behavior by positioning in front of the speaker as if to defend it from others. Interestingly, their response depended on the characteristics of the cries they heard: crocs were more likely to react to recordings with acoustic (声音的) features closely related to very upset babies, such as sudden changes and disharmony in frequency, smoothness and tones.
When the researchers asked human volunteers, all of whom had experience with human babies, to listen to the same recorded cries and estimate the level of pain, the participants used different features than the crocs did to evaluate the sounds, basing their decisions largely on the pitch of the cries — how high or low a sound is. But it varies among individuals and across species. That makes it less reliable and accurate than the alternative acoustic clues picked up on by crocodiles.
The findings of the study raise the possibility that emotion may be communicated across species lines in more ways than scientists thought. As Grimault puts it, “If crocs can do it, probably many other animals can do it, too.”
32. Why are the cries collected from different situations played?
A. To discover which crocodiles are smart. B. To identify what appeals to crocodiles.
C. To develop how to protect crocodiles. D. To record when crocodiles interact.
33. How do most of the crocodiles respond to baby’ cries?
A. Guarding the speakers. B. Sunbathing on the rocks.
C. Attacking other crocodiles. D. Moving towards the sound.
34. Which of the following belongs to “alternative acoustic clues” in paragraph 3?
A. The volume of sound. B. The source of the cries.
C. The evenness of tone. D. The pitch of the voice.
35. Which statement would Grimault probably agree with?
A. Humans are sensitive to voices of other species.
B. Emotions may be shared beyond species borders.
C. Crocs tend to be friendly to babies of any species.
D. Cross-species communication is an unfading skill.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了研究发现尼罗鳄对灵长类动物幼崽痛苦的哭声特别敏感——哭声越焦虑,它们就越感兴趣。介绍了研究开展的经过以及这项研究的发现提出了一种可能性,即情感可能以比科学家想象的更多的方式跨物种交流。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The speakers played a series of cries expressing varying levels of pain from primate babies. The cries were recorded in different situations to find out which aspects of the voices interest the crocs most.(演讲者播放了一系列灵长类动物婴儿的哭声,表达了不同程度的疼痛。研究人员记录了不同情况下的叫声,以找出鳄鱼最感兴趣的声音的哪个方面)”可知,播放不同情况下的哭声是为了确定什么会吸引鳄鱼。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Many of the crocs, male and female, responded to the cries by suddenly turning their heads, seeking out the source of the sound, rapidly approaching the loudspeaker and sometimes even biting it.(许多鳄鱼,无论雄性还是雌性,都会突然转过头来寻找声音的来源,迅速靠近扬声器,有时甚至会咬它)”可知,大多数鳄鱼对婴儿的哭声的反应是向声音移动。故选D。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Interestingly, their response depended on the characteristics of the cries they heard: crocs were more likely to react to recordings with acoustic (声音的) features closely related to very upset babies, such as sudden changes and disharmony in frequency, smoothness and tones.(有趣的是,它们的反应取决于它们听到的哭声的特征:鳄鱼更有可能对与非常不安的婴儿密切相关的声学特征的录音做出反应,比如频率、平滑度和音调的突然变化和不和谐)”以及第三段“When the researchers asked human volunteers, all of whom had experience with human babies, to listen to the same recorded cries and estimate the level of pain, the participants used different features than the crocs did to evaluate the sounds, basing their decisions largely on the pitch of the cries — how high or low a sound is.(当研究人员要求人类志愿者(他们都有过照顾人类婴儿的经验)听同样的哭声录音并估计疼痛程度时,参与者使用了与鳄鱼不同的特征来评估声音,他们的决定主要基于哭声的音高——声音的高低)”以及“That makes it less reliable and accurate than the alternative acoustic clues picked up on by crocodiles.(这使得它的可靠性和准确性不如鳄鱼捕捉到的其他声音线索)”可推知,鳄鱼捕捉到的线索属于其他声音线索,因此推断语调的均匀属于“其他声音线索”。故选C。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“The findings of the study raise the possibility that emotion may be communicated across species lines in more ways than scientists thought. As Grimault puts it, “If crocs can do it, probably many other animals can do it, too.”(这项研究的发现提出了一种可能性,即情感可能以比科学家想象的更多的方式跨物种交流。正如格里诺所说,“如果鳄鱼能做到这一点,可能许多其他动物也能做到。”)”可知,Grimault认为情感可以跨越物种边界。故选B。

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。
A couple years ago, I was at the eye doctor with my six-year-old daughter. The doctor asked me more than once, “Why has she been frowning (皱眉) all the time?” I can’t know how much my child’s being a girl shaped his thoughts about her emotional state. But I know that people start expecting girls to show positive expressions early.
Researchers analyzed 16,000 yearbook photographs of students from kindergarten to college. Children showed no significant difference in smiling until age eight or nine. ____36____ The difference peaked by age 14 and continued into adulthood.
We may see such results because as children grow older, they become more aware of societal expectations related to gender roles. ____37____ People may also internalize gender roles portrayed in film and media, where smiling is seen as more common for women and seriousness for men.
In a study, teachers reported that girls were viewed as “peaceful” and “calm” (positive but passive emotions), whereas boys showed more “curiosity” and “anger” (expressive and agentic emotions). ____38____ This is a misconception. No scientific studies have shown that self-control mechanisms are more developed in girls than they are in boys.
Very early on, children learn to manage their emotions in line with societal norms they pick up from their peers and caregivers. Emotional expectations and the offhand comments that children internalize over time harm all kids. ____39____
Teaching children to manage their emotions is not wrong. But it is important not to expect children to all follow the same pattern. We need to talk with our children about bodily autonomy (自主权). We should also talk about emotional autonomy and how they can better understand their feelings. ____40____ What matters is how they deal with these feelings.
A. Smiling girls are considered more pleasant and friendly.
B. Children ought to know that it is okay to feel sad, upset and angry.
C. These expectations could come from teachers, parents or peer groups.
D. They can also have lasting negative effects on children’s sense of self.
E. Then the gap started to widen with girls smiling much more than boys.
F. It is widely believed that girls are better than boys managing their emotions.
G. Parents might encourage emotional expression in girls but discourage it in boys.
【答案】36. E 37. C 38. F 39. D 40. B
【解析】
【导语】本文主要探讨了社会对不同性别孩子在情绪表达方面的期望差异,指出这种差异从孩子年幼时就开始存在,并分析了其形成原因及带来的影响,强调应重视孩子的情感自主权。
【36题详解】
前文“Researchers analyzed 16,000 yearbook photographs of students from kindergarten to college. Children showed no significant difference in smiling until age eight or nine.(研究人员分析了 16000 张从幼儿园到大学阶段学生的年鉴照片。孩子们在 8 岁或 9 岁之前微笑程度并无显著差异。)”提到在八、九岁之前孩子们的微笑没有显著差异。后文“The difference peaked by age 14 and continued into adulthood.(这种差异在 14 岁时达到顶峰,并一直持续到成年时期。)”指出这种差异在14岁时达到顶峰并持续到成年。空处应起到承上启下的作用,说明在八、九岁之后微笑方面开始出现差异,E选项“Then the gap started to widen with girls smiling much more than boys.(然后,随着女孩比男孩笑得更多,差距开始扩大。)”符合语境,承接上文微笑无差异,引出下文差距扩大。
【37题详解】
前文“We may see such results because as children grow older, they become more aware of societal expectations related to gender roles.(我们之所以会看到这样的结果,是因为随着孩子年龄的增长,他们会对与性别角色相关的社会期望有更清晰的认识。)”表明随着孩子长大,他们更意识到与性别角色相关的社会期望。后文“People may also internalize gender roles portrayed in film and media, where smiling is seen as more common for women and seriousness for men.(人们也可能会将电影和媒体中所呈现的性别角色内化,比如在这些作品中,微笑被认为是女性更常见的表情,而严肃则是男性的特征。)”提到人们也可能内化电影和媒体中描绘的性别角色,在电影和媒体中微笑被认为在女性中更常见,严肃在男性中更常见。空处应进一步说明这些社会期望的来源,C选项“These expectations could come from teachers, parents or peer groups.(这些期望可能来自老师、家长或同龄群体。)”符合语境,解释了社会期望的来源,与后文电影和媒体呼应。
【38题详解】
前文“In a study, teachers reported that girls were viewed as “peaceful” and “calm” (positive but passive emotions), whereas boys showed more “curiosity” and “anger” (expressive and agentic emotions).(在一项研究中,教师们表示,女孩被认为具有“平和”和“冷静”的特质(即积极但较为被动的情绪),而男孩则表现出更多的“好奇心”和“愤怒”(即富有表现力且具有主动性的情绪)。)”提到女孩被视为“平和”“冷静”(积极但被动的情绪),而男孩表现出更多的“好奇”和“愤怒”(有表现力和主动性的情绪)。后文“This is a misconception. No scientific studies have shown that self-control mechanisms are more developed in girls than they are in boys.(这是一种错误的看法。目前没有科学研究表明女孩的自我控制机制比男孩更发达。)”指出这是一个误解,没有科学研究表明女孩比男孩的自我控制机制更发达。空处应是提出一种普遍看法——女孩比男孩更善于自我控制,F选项“It is widely believed that girls are better than boys managing their emotions.(人们普遍认为女孩比男孩更善于管理情绪。)”符合语境,与后文形成转折,引出误解的内容。
【39题详解】
前文“Very early on, children learn to manage their emotions in line with societal norms they pick up from their peers and caregivers. Emotional expectations and the offhand comments that children internalize over time harm all kids.(很早的时候,孩子们就会学着按照从同龄人和照顾者那里习得的社会规范来管理自己的情绪。情感方面的期望以及孩子们随着时间推移逐渐内化的随意评论,会对所有孩子造成伤害。)”提到,内化的情绪期待和随意评价会伤害所有孩子,D选项“They can also have lasting negative effects on children’s sense of self.(它们也会对孩子的自我认知产生持久的负面影响。)”中的“also”和前文形成递进关系,进一步说明危害,衔接自然。
【40题详解】
前文“We need to talk with our children about bodily autonomy (自主权). We should also talk about emotional autonomy and how they can better understand their feelings.(我们需要和孩子谈论身体自主权。我们也应该探讨情感自主权,以及他们如何能更好地理解自己的感受。)”提到要教孩子情绪自主、理解自身感受。后文“What matters is how they deal with these feelings.(重要的是他们如何处理这些情绪。)”指出重要的是他们如何处理这些感受。空处应说明孩子有各种不同的感受是正常的,B选项“Children ought to know that it is okay to feel sad, upset and angry.(孩子们应该知道感到悲伤、沮丧和愤怒是可以的。)”符合语境,与后文处理感受相呼应。

【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了泉州簪花围这一闽南民俗文化活化石的传承与发展现状。
【56题详解】
考查介词。句意:簪花围被称为闽南民间文化的活化石,是泉州特有的独特习俗。固定搭配be unique to表示“为……所独有”。
【57题详解】
考查介词。句意:尽管受到现代化的冲击,这一传统仍然得以存续,并在近年来重新流行起来。上文说受到现代化的冲击,下文说传统仍然得以存续,前后为让步关系。despite意为“尽管”,后接名词短语。句首首字母大写。
【58题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:用于头饰的花朵主要是当地当季的花卉,从茉莉到康乃馨不等。句子已有谓语动词,此处需要非谓语动词作状语,range与主语flowers为主动关系,所以用现在分词作伴随状语。
【59题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:当地老年妇女是该传统的主要传承人,她们大多数从小就掌握了这门技艺。空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词为Local elderly women,指人,且关系词作介词of的宾语,所以用关系代词whom引导定语从句。

考查非谓语动词。句意:许多年轻女孩身着闽南风格的服饰,精致的簪花整齐地别在发间。此处为with复合结构,flowers与pin之间是被动关系,故用过去分词作宾语补足语。
【62题详解】
考查强调句型。句意:专家指出,正是文化自信促成了“簪花围”的重生。本句为强调句型“It is + 被强调部分 + that/who + 其他”,被强调部分为cultural confidence,指物,故用that。
【63题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:希望更多资源被分配用于保护这一珍贵民俗遗产。空处为that从句的谓语动词,主语resources与distribute为被动关系,It is hoped that后常接将来时态,所以本句话用一般将来时态的被动语态。
【64题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:通过将传统与现代旅游相结合,泉州必将守住其文化根基,并保持这一历史悠久的习俗的活力。固定搭配be bound to do sth. 表示“注定/一定会做某事”。
【65题详解】
考查名词。句意:同上。根据空前定冠词the可知,空处需用名词vitality“活力”,作maintain的宾语。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 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。
Sumi was a single mother. Her daughter Anna has always been called “Number 23.” Every time the school released exam results, Anna would always end up in 23rd position among 50 pupils. Always 23, no matter how hard she pushed Anna. Every mention of this nickname gnawed at Sumi.
One day, Sumi, along with Anna, was invited to a lively gathering of several friends and their families. The atmosphere was delightful and as the lunch came to a finish, a man playfully asked the youngsters what they aspired (有志成为) to be when they grew up. “I want to be a pianist!” “I want to be a famous actor!” “I want to be a politician!” “I’ll start a business and make tons of money!” One after another, the children voiced these bold, ambitious dreams, earning warm applause and compliments from the adults.
Anna, however, simply smiled and clapped along, remaining silent. She was quietly occupied with serving soup and distributing cookies to the guests. Then, the man who had posed the question turned his gaze toward Anna and added, “Hey, our Anna hasn’t shared her dream yet. What do you want to be when you grow up?” Anna paused, and then, with a soft smile, replied, “Uncle, I want to be a primary school teacher. I love kids — telling them funny stories and teaching them how to make paper cuts. I just love dancing and singing and playing with them.” The room fell instantly silent. Sumi felt her heart sink.
Later, boarding a rented bus for the return trip, Sumi stared out the window, a heavy cloud of disappointment settling over her. She had hoped Anna would dream bigger, not settle for such an ordinary life. As traffic thickened, the bus got fast stuck in a jam. Suddenly, two boys erupted into a full-blown quarrel over a single slice of dessert. No one could calm them down. To make matters worse, more kids on the bus began to get restless due to the jam.
注意:
(1) 续写词数应为150左右;
(2) 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: At that critical moment, Anna stepped in.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Sumi excitedly called Anna a hero, but she shook her head gently.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
At that critical moment Anna stepped in. Approaching the quarreling boys with a calm smile, she suggested they flip a coin to settle their dispute. Simple as that, the argument ended. Everyone was stunned. Then, she began distributing treats like a caring big sister, instantly soothing the restless children. Making use of leftover candy boxes, she folded intricate paper animals — elephants, lions, and birds — and presented them to each child on the bus. The children’s eyes sparkled with joy as they admired their unique gifts, their cries replaced by laughter. The man who had asked about their dreams earlier watched in astonishment, clapping appreciatively. As for Sumi, a new emotion warmed her chest: pride.
Sumi excitedly called Anna a hero, but she shook her head gently. She grinned and replied softly, “Mom, I’m not a hero. When a hero walks down the road, everyone claps, but I want to be the one clapping for others.” That simple answer shifted something deep within Sumi. She realized she had always pushed Anna to achieve, shine, and be number one, yet she had missed the point. Being kind, happy, and true to oneself was the real achievement. Perhaps being “Number 23” wasn’t terrible after all; it was exactly where Anna was meant to shine. A tear of joy rolled down Sumi’s cheek as she wrapped her arm around her daughter’s shoulder. “Then be that teacher, my Anna. I shall be your loudest admirer.”

Getting Along with Grizzlies (灰熊)
Almost three-quarters of all young females that grow up in the Elk Valley die young. In fact, after — tracking-70 bears between 2016 and 2022, experts found survival rates for young grizzlies in the Elk Valley are the lowest recorded in North America.
Causes of grizzly deaths
Deaths of the 15 tracked bears during that period:
Challenges to human-bear coexistence in the Elk Valley
Measures taken
Since April 2024, the government has taken effort to help humans and bears share the landscape. One of the most effective tools is electric fencing, which reduces damage to infrastructure (基础设施) by 80%-100%. It keeps bears away from attractants like garbage, which reduces conflicts. These simple,low-cost measures are saving lives — on both sides. As someone puts it,“Coexistence is a two-way street.If we want bears to survive, we have to be willing to change, too.”
21. How many tracked grizzlies died due to human-related causes?
A. 40%. B. 46.6%. C. 86.6%. D. 93.3%.
22. Why is the number of grizzlies stable in the Elk Valley?
A. Their death rate decreases. B. Some learn to travel safely.
C. Their survival gets protected. D. Some move in from nearby.
23. What is the main function of electric fencing?
A. Saving humans from bears. B. Preventing conflict and loss.
C. Letting bears trust humans. D. Cutting the bear control cost.
B
Chicago-based Jim Bachor is an expert in fixing up poholes (坑洼) on the streets by filling them up with his beautiful and strong mosaics (马赛克).
In fact, Bachor’s career as a pohole artist began with a trip to the ancient city of Pompeii in Italy, where he learned mosaic could remain for a long time, standing the test of time. The tour guide pointed at a 2,000-year-old artwork and said that although it had gone through so many years, the marble and glass pieces had not fadeD. The realization of the artwork’s staying power blew Bachor away. A few months later he was in Italy learning the secrets of ancient mosaic art and he pursued it as a hobby for a few years.
In May of 2013 he got the idea of applying his skill to fixing an annoying pohole in his neighborhood. Bachor said. “There was a long-standing pohole right outside our house, which the city repeatedly filled with concrete, yet it kept reappearing.” So, what I did was that I created a special piece of art for that pohole.”
However, creating pohole mosaics was quite different from doing them in the comfort of his own studio. For instance, it was challenging to protect them for a few hours before they became firm. One day, while he accompanied his sons to their soccer practice, the training cones (锥桶) inspired him. Jim Bachor placed them around the pohole mosaics to act as temporary traffic markers, guiding traffic around them.
Bachor started doing pohole mosaics in his neighborhood with many of his neighbors coming to help him, and as his work started getting more attention, he even did some projects in other major cities.
24. What inspired Jim Bachor to be a pohole mosaic artist?
A. The secrets of creating mosaic. B. The beauty of Pompeii’s artworks.
C. Suggestions from Pompeii’s tour guide. D. Pompeii mosaics’ long-lasting capacity.
25. Why did Bachor started his pohole mosaic art in 2013?
A. To fulfill a task from the city. B. To show up his artistic skills.
C. To fix a recurring pohole issue. D. To raise people’s awareness of art.
26. How did Jim Bachor protect his pohole mosaics from damage?
A. He used soccer training cones. B. He asked his sons to help him.
C. He hired workers to direct traffic. D. He applied a quick-drying material.
27. What can we learn from Jim Bachor’s story?
A. Art needs to be passed down. B. Art can solve practical issues.
C. Creativity is the key to success. D. Ancient artworks are the most precious.
C
“Can you finish the work by the end of the day?” This question might cause anxiety for many employees. However, recent research indicates that shorter deadlines can actually help some individuals to complete tasks more efficiently and perceive their workload as less frightening.
In a study focused on retirement planning, volunteers completed a brief online survey under two different deadline conditions. One group had seven days to finish the survey, while the other was given 14 days. The researchers discovered that those facing the longer deadline often viewed the task as more difficult. Although participants with the extended deadline initially invested more time and resources, they were also more likely to procrastinate (拖延) and less likely to complete the assignment compared to those with shorter deadlines.
Recognizing that people frequently deal with multiple deadlines, researchers explored how individuals manage various tasks at the same time. The findings found a mental tendency: individuals often delay important tasks in favor of urgent but less significant ones. For example, many delay routine medical check-ups — crucial for health — in favor of rushing to a store for a limited-time sale. This occurs because important tasks feel more complex and distant, while urgent tasks provide immediate satisfaction.
These patterns have significant results for managers and others involved in setting deadlines. Understanding these mental processes can help find strategies to enhance task completion rates. Short deadlines for urgent tasks tend to draw attention more effectively, leading to higher completion rates and reduced procrastination. On the other hand, longer deadlines can lead to excessive careful thought or distraction, resulting in incomplete work.
However, it’s essential to recognize that longer deadlines may still be necessary for complex tasks, particularly when external factors, such as resource availability or cooperation, require additional time for proper completion. In such cases, a balanced approach is crucial: setting realistic deadlines that account for both urgency and complexity can lead to improved outcomes. By recognizing the minor differences of human motivation, individuals and organizations can develop effective strategies for task management.
28. According to recent research, what may shorter deadlines bring about?
A. Increased stress. B. Higher efficiency.
C. Reduced workload. D. Slower completion.
29. Why do people tend to delay important tasks for urgent ones?
A. Urgent tasks offer instant rewards. B. Urgent tasks are more complicated.
C. Important tasks are less challenging. D. Important tasks needs multi-tasking.
30. How should managers set proper deadlines to improve outcome?
A. Set all tasks with shorter deadlines. B. Prioritize resources and cooperation.
C. Balance task urgency and complexity. D. Extend deadlines for significant tasks.
31. What can be the best title for the text?
A. The Role of Urgency in Task Completion B. Strategies for Managing Various Deadlines
C. Influences of Procrastination on Work Quality D. The Power of Deadlines in Task Management
D
Nile crocodiles are uniquely sensitive to the cries of painful primate (灵长类) babies, according to a new study — and the more anxious the cry, the more interested they become. To make the find, Nicolas Grimault, a scientist at the University of Lyon, and his colleagues visited a zoo in Morocco, which houses more than 300 Nile crocodiles. The researchers set up loudspeakers alongside four ponds where, at each, as many as 25 crocodiles sunbathed on red rocks. The speakers played a series of cries expressing varying levels of pain from primate babies. The cries were recorded in different situations to find out which aspects of the voices interest the crocs most.
Many of the crocs, male and female, responded to the cries by suddenly turning their heads, seeking out the source of the sound, rapidly approaching the loudspeaker and sometimes even biting it. One individual even showed protective behavior by positioning in front of the speaker as if to defend it from others. Interestingly, their response depended on the characteristics of the cries they heard: crocs were more likely to react to recordings with acoustic (声音的) features closely related to very upset babies, such as sudden changes and disharmony in frequency, smoothness and tones.
When the researchers asked human volunteers, all of whom had experience with human babies, to listen to the same recorded cries and estimate the level of pain, the participants used different features than the crocs did to evaluate the sounds, basing their decisions largely on the pitch of the cries — how high or low a sound is. But it varies among individuals and across species. That makes it less reliable and accurate than the alternative acoustic clues picked up on by crocodiles.
The findings of the study raise the possibility that emotion may be communicated across species lines in more ways than scientists thought. As Grimault puts it, “If crocs can do it, probably many other animals can do it, too.”
32. Why are the cries collected from different situations played?
A. To discover which crocodiles are smart. B. To identify what appeals to crocodiles.
C. To develop how to protect crocodiles. D. To record when crocodiles interact.
33. How do most of the crocodiles respond to baby’ cries?
A. Guarding the speakers. B. Sunbathing on the rocks.
C. Attacking other crocodiles. D. Moving towards the sound.
34. Which of the following belongs to “alternative acoustic clues” in paragraph 3?
A. The volume of sound. B. The source of the cries.
C. The evenness of tone. D. The pitch of the voice.
35. Which statement would Grimault probably agree with?
A. Humans are sensitive to voices of other species.
B. Emotions may be shared beyond species borders.
C. Crocs tend to be friendly to babies of any species.
D. Cross-species communication is an unfading skill.

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。
A couple years ago, I was at the eye doctor with my six-year-old daughter. The doctor asked me more than once, “Why has she been frowning (皱眉) all the time?” I can’t know how much my child’s being a girl shaped his thoughts about her emotional state. But I know that people start expecting girls to show positive expressions early.
Researchers analyzed 16,000 yearbook photographs of students from kindergarten to college. Children showed no significant difference in smiling until age eight or nine. ____36____ The difference peaked by age 14 and continued into adulthood.
We may see such results because as children grow older, they become more aware of societal expectations related to gender roles. ____37____ People may also internalize gender roles portrayed in film and media, where smiling is seen as more common for women and seriousness for men.
In a study, teachers reported that girls were viewed as “peaceful” and “calm” (positive but passive emotions), whereas boys showed more “curiosity” and “anger” (expressive and agentic emotions). ____38____ This is a misconception. No scientific studies have shown that self-control mechanisms are more developed in girls than they are in boys.
Very early on, children learn to manage their emotions in line with societal norms they pick up from their peers and caregivers. Emotional expectations and the offhand comments that children internalize over time harm all kids. ____39____
Teaching children to manage their emotions is not wrong. But it is important not to expect children to all follow the same pattern. We need to talk with our children about bodily autonomy (自主权). We should also talk about emotional autonomy and how they can better understand their feelings. ____40____ What matters is how they deal with these feelings.
A. Smiling girls are considered more pleasant and friendly.
B. Children ought to know that it is okay to feel sad, upset and angry.
C. These expectations could come from teachers, parents or peer groups.
D. They can also have lasting negative effects on children’s sense of self.
E. Then the gap started to widen with girls smiling much more than boys.
F. It is widely believed that girls are better than boys managing their emotions.
G. Parents might encourage emotional expression in girls but discourage it in boys.

We set a finishing time and left them to it, ____47____ our local pub to give them space to have fun. That night, we got home at 10 p.m.. The kitchen and garden had ____48____ everywhere, music was playing loudly, and all kids were singing and dancing. My husband ____49____ reached for cleaning tools, yet I gently held him back because I wanted my kid to learn about ____50____.

67. 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。
Sumi was a single mother. Her daughter Anna has always been called “Number 23.” Every time the school released exam results, Anna would always end up in 23rd position among 50 pupils. Always 23, no matter how hard she pushed Anna. Every mention of this nickname gnawed at Sumi.
One day, Sumi, along with Anna, was invited to a lively gathering of several friends and their families. The atmosphere was delightful and as the lunch came to a finish, a man playfully asked the youngsters what they aspired (有志成为) to be when they grew up. “I want to be a pianist!” “I want to be a famous actor!” “I want to be a politician!” “I’ll start a business and make tons of money!” One after another, the children voiced these bold, ambitious dreams, earning warm applause and compliments from the adults.
Anna, however, simply smiled and clapped along, remaining silent. She was quietly occupied with serving soup and distributing cookies to the guests. Then, the man who had posed the question turned his gaze toward Anna and added, “Hey, our Anna hasn’t shared her dream yet. What do you want to be when you grow up?” Anna paused, and then, with a soft smile, replied, “Uncle, I want to be a primary school teacher. I love kids — telling them funny stories and teaching them how to make paper cuts. I just love dancing and singing and playing with them.” The room fell instantly silent. Sumi felt her heart sink.
Later, boarding a rented bus for the return trip, Sumi stared out the window, a heavy cloud of disappointment settling over her. She had hoped Anna would dream bigger, not settle for such an ordinary life. As traffic thickened, the bus got fast stuck in a jam. Suddenly, two boys erupted into a full-blown quarrel over a single slice of dessert. No one could calm them down. To make matters worse, more kids on the bus began to get restless due to the jam.
