Today, architects continue to explore ways to capture the beauty of natural forms, to mimic the way nature works or even to make natural organisms part of a building. Art Science Museum, Singapore People whose interest is exploring the relationship between art and science will enjoy Singapore’s Art Science Museum. The building was designed to show the connection between nature and the modern city environment in which it sits. Shaped to resemble a lotus flower, it appears to float above the waterfront promenade and the water that surrounds it. Its roof collects rainwater and channels it 35 meters down to a waterfall in the centre of the space. The water is then recycled through the building’s plumbing system. The building so truly captures the beauty of natural forms. The Eastgate Centre, Harare Harare’s Eastgate Centre is a superb example of biomimicry. To use biomimicry is to create structures based on natural forms and processes. Zimbabwean architect Mick Pearce was inspired to create the Centre while watching a nature documentary. The insects built mounds covered in little holes designed to allow air to move freely in and out of the mounds. In a similar way, the Eastgate Centre has a “skin” covered in holes. During the day, warm air is drawn into the building through the holes, cooling as it reaches the middle of the building. At night, the heat absorbed by the wall during the day warms the cool air, creating a comfortable temperature inside. The design reduces the need for traditional air conditioning and heating systems, so the building uses less energy and costs less to run. The Algae House, Hamburg The world’s first algae-powered building is in Hamburg, Germany. The surface of the apartment building is covered in panels that contain algae. In bright sunshine, they grow faster and provide shade. The panels also capture heat from the sun and convert it into energy that powers the building. And that’s not all— the algae inside the panels can be harvested and used to produce fuel. The building therefore not only responds to its environment and uses less energy, but also reduces damage to the environment by generating its own renewable energy. Creating building such as these enables us to live in closer harmony with our environment. To meet the needs of today while protecting the world of tomorrow may be a challenge, but even the simplest organisms can help teach us how to achieve this. 36. Which of the following is not the reason why architects continue to explore nature? A. To capture the beauty of nature. B. To make natural organisms alive. C. To make nature part of architecture. D. To imitate the way nature works. 37. How is the link between nature and city environment reflected? A. From its roof that helps collect and recycle rainwater. B. From its attraction of visitors all over the world. C. From its amazing waterfall in the center of the space. D. From its lotus flower shape floating on the water. 38. What makes the Eastgate Centre use less energy? A. Its surface covered in holes. B. Mounds covered in little holes. C. Traditional air conditioning systems. D. Termites constructing their nests. 39. How can the Algae House reduce damage to the environment? A. By using less energy. B. By capturing heat from the sun. C. By producing its own renewable energy. D. By providing shade for people 40. In which magazine would you most likely find the passage? A. Extraordinary Architects. B. Architecture Frontier. C. Natural World. D. Living on Earth. 【答案】36. B 37. D 38. A 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述大自然启发仿生建筑设计，介绍三处典型仿生环保建筑及其优势。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中“Today, architects continue to explore ways to capture the beauty of natural forms, to mimic the way nature works or even to make natural organisms part of a building.(如今，建筑师们不断探索捕捉自然形态之美、模仿自然运作方式，甚至将自然生物融入建筑的方法。)”可知，文中未提及让自然生物存活，ACD均是建筑师探索自然的原因。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据Art Science Museum, Singapore部分中“Shaped to resemble a lotus flower, it appears to float above the waterfront promenade and the water that surrounds it.(它形似莲花，仿佛漂浮在滨水步道和环绕的水面之上。)”可知，新加坡艺术科学博物馆以莲花造型呼应自然，体现自然与城市环境的联结。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Eastgate Centre, Harare部分中“In a similar way, the Eastgate Centre has a “skin” covered in holes. During the day, warm air is drawn into the building through the holes, cooling as it reaches the middle of the building. At night, the heat absorbed by the wall during the day warms the cool air, creating a comfortable temperature inside. The design reduces the need for traditional air conditioning and heating systems, so the building uses less energy and costs less to run.(同理，Eastgate Centre的外立面“皮肤”上也布满了孔洞。白天，暖空气通过这些孔洞被吸入建筑内部，在到达建筑中部时冷却；夜晚，墙体白天吸收的热量加热冷空气，从而在室内保持宜人的温度。这种设计减少了对传统空调和供暖系统的依赖，降低了能耗和运行成本。)”可知，布满孔洞的建筑表层形成自然温控系统，减少能源消耗。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据The Algae House, Hamburg部分中“And that’s not all — the algae inside the panels can be harvested and used to produce fuel. The building therefore not only responds to its environment and uses less energy, but also reduces damage to the environment by generating its own renewable energy.(不仅如此，面板内的藻类还可以被采集并用于生产燃料。因此，这座建筑不仅能适应环境并降低能耗，还能通过产生可再生能源来减少对环境的破坏。)”可知，藻类房屋通过自产可再生能源保护环境。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。结合第一段“Nature has inspired many of the most fascinating designs around us, including those in architecture. Today, architects continue to explore ways to capture the beauty of natural forms, to mimic the way nature works or even to make natural organisms part of a building.(大自然启发了我们周围许多最迷人的设计，包括建筑领域。如今，建筑师仍在探索如何捕捉自然形态的美感，模仿自然运作的方式，甚至将自然界中的生物融入建筑之中)”可知，全文围绕仿生建筑展开，介绍前沿建筑设计理念与案例，贴合建筑前沿领域内容。“Architecture Frontier(建筑前沿)”符合题意。 B Labor Day Tribute (致辞): An Honor to the backbone of Our Nation This Labor Day let’s pay an honor to the hands that worked hard to build our dreams! Labor Day is more than just a day off from work. It is a day to celebrate the hardworking men and women who worked hard for the growth of our nation. These unsung heroes are the backbone of our society who get the wheels of success turning without ever stepping into the spotlight. Labor Day is celebrated throughout the world. The goal is to emphasize the importance of the workforce everywhere. Laborers have faced countless challenges throughout history. They had to fight even for basic rights such as fair wages or safe working conditions. But their struggles were not in vain. Their strength and resilience resulted in better labor laws, fair wages, and safe working conditions. Employers are now bound by law to take care of the labor force under them and they can face heavy charges for negligence (疏忽). But with the changing times, the focus of this day should be on coming up with creative ways to teach laborers everywhere with skills that are the demand of today. Technology is progressing now more than ever, and so should our workforce. To honor the laborers, the day is considered an official holiday, but Labor Day is more than just a mere holiday to enjoy time with your family. It is a day to show your gratitude for the hardworking people around you. A thoughtful way of celebrating the day is by supporting local businesses. You can make donations or just buy their products to show your support. You can bake goodies or distribute things in your neighborhood shops and attend community events. Or you can just take a moment and express gratitude for those who work hard to make our lives better. 41. The phrase “unsung heroes” in paragraph I most likely means ________. A. people who do great things but get little recognition B. people who have become famous for their achievements C. people who sing while working D. people who work in the music industry 42. According to the passage, what is the main goal of celebrating Labor Day worldwide? A. To give workers a day off from their jobs. B. To encourage technological development. C. To promote family gatherings and community events. D. To stress the critical role of the workforce. 43. What can be inferred from the passage about today’s workforce? A. They no longer face challenges in their working conditions. B. They need to keep learning new skills to meet modern demands. C. They prefer technological jobs to traditional ones. D. They are less hardworking than workers in the past. 44. The author suggests that a meaningful way to celebrate Labor Day is by ________. A. learning about labor laws B. studying technological skills C. traveling to different countries D. supporting local businesses 45. What is the author’s attitude towards laborers? A. Critical and disappointed. B. Doubtful and uncertain. C. Respectful and grateful. D. Neutral and objective. 【答案】41. A 42. D 43. B 44. D 45. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇劳动节致辞，旨在向辛勤工作的劳动者致敬并阐述劳动节的意义。 【41题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段划线短语所在的句子“These unsung heroes are the backbone of our society who get the wheels of success turning without ever stepping into the spotlight. (这些unsung heroes是我们社会的脊梁，他们让成功的车轮转动，却从未踏入聚光灯下。)”可知，“unsung heroes”指的是做了伟大事情却很少获得认可的人。 【42题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“Labor Day is celebrated throughout the world. The goal is to emphasize the importance of the workforce everywhere. (劳动节在全世界庆祝。目标是强调各地劳动力的重要性。)”可知， 全世界庆祝劳动节的主要目标是强调劳动力的关键作用。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段的句子“But with the changing times, the focus of this day should be on coming up with creative ways to teach laborers everywhere with skills that are the demand of today. Technology is progressing now more than ever, and so should our workforce. (但随着时代变化，这一天的重点应该是想出创造性的方法，用当今需求的技能来培训各地的劳动者。技术正在比以往任何时候都更快地进步，我们的劳动力也应该如此。)”可推断，当今劳动力需要不断学习新技能以满足现代需求。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“A thoughtful way of celebrating the day is by supporting local businesses. You can make donations or just buy their products to show your support. (庆祝这一天的周到方式是支持本地企业。你可以捐款或只是购买他们的产品来表示支持。)”可知，作者建议通过支持本地企业来有意义地庆祝劳动节。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据副标题“This Labor Day let’s pay an honor to the hands that worked hard to build our dreams!(这个劳动节，让我们向那些为实现我们的梦想而辛勤付出的双手致敬！)”和第三段中的“It is a day to show your gratitude for the hardworking people around you.(这是向你身边辛勤工作的人表达感激之情的日子)”可推断，作者对劳动者的态度是尊敬且感激的。 C Many people fear losing their memory and clear thinking as they age, especially with rising dementia (痴呆) rates. However, research offers hope, showing that our food choices can powerfully protect our brain health. A key finding is the benefit of the MIND diet, developed in 2015. It combines the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet and the blood-pressure-lowering DASH diet into a plan specifically designed to protect the brain. The MIND diet is simple and flexible. It encourages eating more brain-boosting foods and cutting back on harmful ones. Important foods include leafy green vegetables like spinach, various berries, nuts, whole grains, beans, fish, poultry, and olive oil. It advises limiting red meat, butter, cheese, pastries, fast food, and fried foods. The goal is to reduce saturated (饱和的) fat and sugar, which cause inflammation (炎症). This way of eating brings real benefits. Studies show that closely following the MIND diet can slow brain aging, making a person’s brain function up to 7.5 years younger. It is also linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Remarkably, even moderate followers see protective effects. The benefits are not just for older adults. Research finds it can improve memory and attention in middle-aged adults and may even lower the odds of ADHD in children. The secret to its success lies in fighting inflammation and oxidative (氧化的) stress, two processes that damage brain cells. Foods like berries and leafy greens are rich in flavonoids, which are antioxidants. Fish provides omega-3 fatty acids that protect neurons. By reducing harm, the diet helps preserve brain structure and function. Scientific evidence strongly supports this. A 2023 study found that people on the MIND diet had larger brain volumes in areas critical for memory and learning. They also had fewer signs of brain tissue damage. Another study showed that sticking to the diet over ten years could lower dementia risk by 25%. Ultimately, the MIND diet is more than a short-term plan; it’s a sustainable lifestyle for lifelong brain health. Experts stress that consistency is key—making good choices day after day. It’s never too early or too late to start. As one researcher says, we should always be eating this way, keeping our brain health in mind with every meal. In conclusion, what we eat directly impacts how well our brain works. The MIND diet provides a clear, flexible, and science-backed guide for nourishing our minds, helping us stay mentally sharp at any age.

It is using machine learning and AI to help firefighters. The company hopes its software can make exact predictions about earthquake damage. It can tell firefighters how to plan for an earthquake and how to do their jobs better when it happens. Nicole Hu, a technology officer from One Concern, says the key is to feed the computers a lot of data (数据) about an area. The data may include information about homes and other buildings, the natural environment, and the size of an earthquake. The computers then use the information to make predictions about what would happen if there were an earthquake in the area. It then uses data from past earthquakes to see whether its predictions are any good, and changes its predictive models accordingly. Gregory Deierlein, earthquake engineer at Stanford University, says one of the most surprising things about the company’s software is its ability to make use of data from an earthquake as it’s happening, and to change its predictions in real time. In the past, researchers would collect data after an event and a few years later they’d produce new models, says Deierlein. Now the new models appear in a matter of minutes. Dan Ghiorso leads the Woodside Fire Protection District near San Francisco, which covers about 32 square miles. He says in the past, when an earthquake hit, he’d have to make educated guesses (based on experience and training) about what parts of his district might be badly damaged and then drive to each place to have a look around. He hopes One Concern’s software will change that. “Instead of driving thirty-two square miles, in fifteen minutes on a computer I can get a good idea of the damage,” he says. “Instead of me taking my educated guess, they’re putting science behind the predictive models.” 51. What do we know about the software’s predictions? A. They are about when an earthquake may happen. B. They are based on data from many different areas. C. They can be made before and during an earthquake. D. They can tell people the size of an earthquake. 52. What is an advantage of the software according to Deierlein? A. It can make predictions very fast. B. It is sold at very low prices. C. It has many different uses. D. It can be used by common people. 53. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to? A. How to save people during earthquakes. B. How to train firefighters to make guesses. C. How Ghiorso gets to know earthquake damage. D. How Ghiorso looks at new predictive models. 54. How does Ghiorso feel about the new technology? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Hopeful. 55. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To tell us how to reduce earthquake damage. B. To introduce the software developed by One Concern. C. To introduce a promising company. D. To tell us how software works. 【答案】51. C 52. A 53. C 54. D 55. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述加州AI公司研发软件，助力消防人员应对地震灾害。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“The computers then use the information to make predictions about what would happen if there were an earthquake in the area.(计算机利用这些信息预测该地区发生地震后会出现的状况。)”以及第三段中“Gregory Deierlein, earthquake engineer at Stanford University, says one of the most surprising things about the company’s software is its ability to make use of data from an earthquake as it’s happening, and to change its predictions in real time.(斯坦福大学地震工程师格雷戈里·代尔莱因指出，该公司软件最令人惊叹的特点之一，是能够实时获取地震发生时的数据，并动态调整预测结果。)”可知，该软件可在地震前和地震中进行预测。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“In the past, researchers would collect data after an event and a few years later they’d produce new models, says Deierlein. Now the new models appear in a matter of minutes.(代尔莱因解释道，过去研究人员通常在地震后收集数据，花费数年时间才能构建出新模型，而现在新模型只需几分钟就能生成。)”可知，这款软件的优势是预测速度极快。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据最后一段中“He says in the past, when an earthquake hit, he’d have to make educated guesses (based on experience and training) about what parts of his district might be badly damaged and then drive to each place to have a look around. He hopes One Concern’s software will change that.(他说，过去地震发生时，他不得不依靠经验和训练对辖区内哪些地区可能遭受严重破坏做出有根据的猜测，然后驱车前往每个地方巡视。他希望One Concern的软件能改变这种状况。)”可知，that指代他以往了解地震受灾情况的方式。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“He says in the past, when an earthquake hit, he’d have to make educated guesses (based on experience and training) about what parts of his district might be badly damaged and then drive to each place to have a look around. He hopes One Concern’s software will change that.(他说，过去地震发生时，他不得不依靠经验和训练对辖区内哪些地区可能遭受严重破坏做出有根据的猜测，然后驱车前往每个地方巡视。他希望One Concern的软件能改变这种状况。)”可知，他对这项新技术满怀期待。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章围绕One Concern公司研发的地震预测软件展开，介绍其原理、优势与实际作用。文章的目的是介绍由One Concern开发的软件。 第Ⅱ卷 注意事项： 1．用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题纸上。 2．本卷共6小题，共35分。 第三部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下列短文并回答问题。 This is a true story. One winter morning near Oxford, Maryland, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside a large window with a view of the Tred Avon River. Across the river, beyond the dock, the snow covered the edge of the shore in white. For a moment, she stood quietly, looking at what the night’s storm had created. Suddenly, she leaned forward and peered through the icy window, trying to examine what she had seen more carefully. “It really is true,” she cried out loud. “There is a goose out there.” She saw a large Canadian goose, very still, its wings held tightly to its sides, and its feet stuck to the ice. From the dark skies, a group of swans (天鹅) appeared, flying in a straight line. They moved gracefully, bravely, and freely. Suddenly, they came down from the sky and surrounded the frozen goose. Seeing this, my friend feared the swans might hurt the goose with their strong beaks (鸟喙). Instead, their beaks began to break the ice around the goose. Eventually, the goose was surrounded by a small area of ice instead of being stuck in the frozen river. The swans flew up again, circling above, waiting to see if their work had helped. The goose lifted its head, pulled its body free, and stood on the ice. Four swans came down again, cleaning the goose’s wings with their beaks and removing the ice stuck to its feathers. The goose stretched its wings as far as it could. When its wings were fully open, the swans flew back up and continued their journey. Behind them, the goose rose into the sky with joy and joined the end of the elegant line. My friend was moved to tears. Even birds help those in trouble. I often think of this story and remind myself, “If birds can do this, why can’t humans?” 56. What does the underlined word “peered” mean in the first paragraph? (no more than 2 words) __________________________________________________________________________________ 57. What was wrong with the goose? (no more than 10 words) __________________________________________________________________________________ 58. What did the swans do when they surrounded the goose? (no more than 15 words) __________________________________________________________________________________ 59. How did the swans help the goose after it stood up? (no more than 15 words) __________________________________________________________________________________ 60. What lesson does the story of the goose teach you for the future? (no more than 20 words) __________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. Looked closely/carefully. / Examined carefully./ Observed carefully./ Inspected carefully./ Studied closely./Stared./ Examined./ Studied./ Observed. 57. Its feet were frozen, and it couldn’t move. 58. They used their beaks to break the ice around the goose. 59. They cleaned its wings and removed the ice from its feathers. 60. It teaches me to be kind, care for others, and support those in need around me. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了一群天鹅救助一只被困在冰面上的加拿大鹅的感人故事。 【56题详解】 考查词义猜测。根据第一段中“Suddenly, she leaned forward and peered through the icy window, trying to examine what she had seen more carefully.(突然，她向前倾身，透过结霜的窗户peered，试图更仔细地观察她看到的东西)”可知，此处描述朋友努力看清窗外景象的动作，划线词peered的意思为“仔细看”。结合语境和语法要求（不超过2词），答案可为Looked closely/carefully. /Examined carefully./Observed carefully./Inspected carefully./Studied closely./Stared./ Examined./Studied./Observed. 【57题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第一段最后一句“She saw a large Canadian goose, very still, its wings held tightly to its sides, and its feet stuck to the ice.(她看见一只大加拿大鹅，一动不动，翅膀紧紧地贴在身体两侧，它的脚冻在冰里)”可知，鹅的问题是脚被冰困住无法移动。故答案为 Its feet were frozen, and it couldn’t move. 【58题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段中“Instead, their beaks began to break the ice around the goose.(相反，它们用喙打破鹅周围的冰)”可知，天鹅围住鹅后立即展开救助。答案需突出“用喙破冰”的动作，故答案为They used their beaks to break the ice around the goose. 【59题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段中“The goose lifted its head, pulled its body free, and stood on the ice. Four swans came down again, cleaning the goose’s wings with their beaks and removing the ice stuck to its feathers.(那只鹅抬起头，挣脱身体，站在冰上。四只天鹅再次飞下，用喙清理鹅的翅膀并去除羽毛上的冰)”可知，天鹅在鹅站立后继续帮助清理残冰。故答案为They cleaned its wings and removed the ice from its feathers. 【60题详解】 考查主旨归纳。根据最后一段中“Even birds help those in trouble. If birds can do this, why can’t humans?(连鸟类都会帮助困境中的同类，人类更应如此)”可知，故事通过动物互助行为呼吁人类传递善意。故答案为 It teaches me to be kind, care for others, and support those in need around me。 61. 假设你是晨光中学的学生李津，你的英国笔友Chris目前作为交换生在天津大学学习。你最近参观了一场“中国艺术展”（Exhibition of Chinese Art），收获颇丰。请你用英语给他写一封电子邮件，内容包括： 1.介绍参观的时间、地点及同行人员； 2.描述展览中的艺术形式（如绘画、书法、雕塑等）并分享参展收获； 3.推荐Chris去观展。 参考词汇：书法calligraphy；雕塑sculpture 注意：1.词数不少于100； 2.可适当增加细节，使行文连贯。 ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 Dear Chris, I am writing to share my wonderful experience of visiting the Exhibition of Chinese Art held in Tianjin Art Museum last Saturday.

Today, architects continue to explore ways to capture the beauty of natural forms, to mimic the way nature works or even to make natural organisms part of a building. Art Science Museum, Singapore People whose interest is exploring the relationship between art and science will enjoy Singapore’s Art Science Museum. The building was designed to show the connection between nature and the modern city environment in which it sits. Shaped to resemble a lotus flower, it appears to float above the waterfront promenade and the water that surrounds it. Its roof collects rainwater and channels it 35 meters down to a waterfall in the centre of the space. The water is then recycled through the building’s plumbing system. The building so truly captures the beauty of natural forms. The Eastgate Centre, Harare Harare’s Eastgate Centre is a superb example of biomimicry. To use biomimicry is to create structures based on natural forms and processes. Zimbabwean architect Mick Pearce was inspired to create the Centre while watching a nature documentary. The insects built mounds covered in little holes designed to allow air to move freely in and out of the mounds. In a similar way, the Eastgate Centre has a “skin” covered in holes. During the day, warm air is drawn into the building through the holes, cooling as it reaches the middle of the building. At night, the heat absorbed by the wall during the day warms the cool air, creating a comfortable temperature inside. The design reduces the need for traditional air conditioning and heating systems, so the building uses less energy and costs less to run. The Algae House, Hamburg The world’s first algae-powered building is in Hamburg, Germany. The surface of the apartment building is covered in panels that contain algae. In bright sunshine, they grow faster and provide shade. The panels also capture heat from the sun and convert it into energy that powers the building. And that’s not all— the algae inside the panels can be harvested and used to produce fuel. The building therefore not only responds to its environment and uses less energy, but also reduces damage to the environment by generating its own renewable energy. Creating building such as these enables us to live in closer harmony with our environment. To meet the needs of today while protecting the world of tomorrow may be a challenge, but even the simplest organisms can help teach us how to achieve this. 36. Which of the following is not the reason why architects continue to explore nature? A. To capture the beauty of nature. B. To make natural organisms alive. C. To make nature part of architecture. D. To imitate the way nature works. 37. How is the link between nature and city environment reflected? A. From its roof that helps collect and recycle rainwater. B. From its attraction of visitors all over the world. C. From its amazing waterfall in the center of the space. D. From its lotus flower shape floating on the water. 38. What makes the Eastgate Centre use less energy? A. Its surface covered in holes. B. Mounds covered in little holes. C. Traditional air conditioning systems. D. Termites constructing their nests. 39. How can the Algae House reduce damage to the environment? A. By using less energy. B. By capturing heat from the sun. C. By producing its own renewable energy. D. By providing shade for people 40. In which magazine would you most likely find the passage? A. Extraordinary Architects. B. Architecture Frontier. C. Natural World. D. Living on Earth. B Labor Day Tribute (致辞): An Honor to the backbone of Our Nation This Labor Day let’s pay an honor to the hands that worked hard to build our dreams! Labor Day is more than just a day off from work. It is a day to celebrate the hardworking men and women who worked hard for the growth of our nation. These unsung heroes are the backbone of our society who get the wheels of success turning without ever stepping into the spotlight. Labor Day is celebrated throughout the world. The goal is to emphasize the importance of the workforce everywhere. Laborers have faced countless challenges throughout history. They had to fight even for basic rights such as fair wages or safe working conditions. But their struggles were not in vain. Their strength and resilience resulted in better labor laws, fair wages, and safe working conditions. Employers are now bound by law to take care of the labor force under them and they can face heavy charges for negligence (疏忽). But with the changing times, the focus of this day should be on coming up with creative ways to teach laborers everywhere with skills that are the demand of today. Technology is progressing now more than ever, and so should our workforce. To honor the laborers, the day is considered an official holiday, but Labor Day is more than just a mere holiday to enjoy time with your family. It is a day to show your gratitude for the hardworking people around you. A thoughtful way of celebrating the day is by supporting local businesses. You can make donations or just buy their products to show your support. You can bake goodies or distribute things in your neighborhood shops and attend community events. Or you can just take a moment and express gratitude for those who work hard to make our lives better. 41. The phrase “unsung heroes” in paragraph I most likely means ________.

C Many people fear losing their memory and clear thinking as they age, especially with rising dementia (痴呆) rates. However, research offers hope, showing that our food choices can powerfully protect our brain health. A key finding is the benefit of the MIND diet, developed in 2015. It combines the heart-healthy Mediterranean diet and the blood-pressure-lowering DASH diet into a plan specifically designed to protect the brain. The MIND diet is simple and flexible. It encourages eating more brain-boosting foods and cutting back on harmful ones. Important foods include leafy green vegetables like spinach, various berries, nuts, whole grains, beans, fish, poultry, and olive oil. It advises limiting red meat, butter, cheese, pastries, fast food, and fried foods. The goal is to reduce saturated (饱和的) fat and sugar, which cause inflammation (炎症). This way of eating brings real benefits. Studies show that closely following the MIND diet can slow brain aging, making a person’s brain function up to 7.5 years younger. It is also linked to a lower risk of Alzheimer’s disease. Remarkably, even moderate followers see protective effects. The benefits are not just for older adults. Research finds it can improve memory and attention in middle-aged adults and may even lower the odds of ADHD in children. The secret to its success lies in fighting inflammation and oxidative (氧化的) stress, two processes that damage brain cells. Foods like berries and leafy greens are rich in flavonoids, which are antioxidants. Fish provides omega-3 fatty acids that protect neurons. By reducing harm, the diet helps preserve brain structure and function. Scientific evidence strongly supports this. A 2023 study found that people on the MIND diet had larger brain volumes in areas critical for memory and learning. They also had fewer signs of brain tissue damage. Another study showed that sticking to the diet over ten years could lower dementia risk by 25%. Ultimately, the MIND diet is more than a short-term plan; it’s a sustainable lifestyle for lifelong brain health. Experts stress that consistency is key—making good choices day after day. It’s never too early or too late to start. As one researcher says, we should always be eating this way, keeping our brain health in mind with every meal. In conclusion, what we eat directly impacts how well our brain works. The MIND diet provides a clear, flexible, and science-backed guide for nourishing our minds, helping us stay mentally sharp at any age. By choosing more whole, plant-based foods and fewer processed items, we can build a strong defense for our cognitive future. 46. According to the article, what is a key characteristic of the MIND diet? A. It is a strict and challenging eating plan to follow. B. It combines principles from two other well-known diets. C. Its primary goal is to help people lose weight quickly. D. It focuses almost entirely on increasing fruit intake. 47. What can be inferred from Paragraph 3 about following the MIND diet? A. It has the potential to benefit a wide range of age groups. B. Its positive effects are limited to preventing Alzheimer’s disease. C. It is more effective for children than for middle-aged adults. D. Only strict followers can gain any health benefits from it. 48. The MIND diet is considered successful mainly because it helps to_________. A. rapidly increase the brain’s processing speed B. fight against processes that harm brain cells C. remove saturated fats from the body completely D. replace medications for brain-related conditions 49. Scientific studies mentioned in the article support the MIND diet by showing it is linked to_________. A. immediate improvements in mood and overall well-being B. a significant decrease in the body’s daily need for sleep C. physical changes in brain structure and lowered risk factors D. the ability to stop dementia development in most cases 50. What is the main idea of the passage? A. To introduce a different and new diet for lowering blood pressure and keeping heart health. B. To compare the benefits of the Mediterranean and DASH diets in preventing disease. C. To describe the main causes and symptoms of age-related memory loss. D. To explain a flexible eating plan designed to keep the mind sharp. D One Concern is an AI company in California. It is using machine learning and AI to help firefighters. The company hopes its software can make exact predictions about earthquake damage. It can tell firefighters how to plan for an earthquake and how to do their jobs better when it happens. Nicole Hu, a technology officer from One Concern, says the key is to feed the computers a lot of data (数据) about an area. The data may include information about homes and other buildings, the natural environment, and the size of an earthquake. The computers then use the information to make predictions about what would happen if there were an earthquake in the area. It then uses data from past earthquakes to see whether its predictions are any good, and changes its predictive models accordingly. Gregory Deierlein, earthquake engineer at Stanford University, says one of the most surprising things about the company’s software is its ability to make use of data from an earthquake as it’s happening, and to change its predictions in real time. In the past, researchers would collect data after an event and a few years later they’d produce new models, says Deierlein. Now the new models appear in a matter of minutes. Dan Ghiorso leads the Woodside Fire Protection District near San Francisco, which covers about 32 square miles. He says in the past, when an earthquake hit, he’d have to make educated guesses (based on experience and training) about what parts of his district might be badly damaged and then drive to each place to have a look around. He hopes One Concern’s software will change that. “Instead of driving thirty-two square miles, in fifteen minutes on a computer I can get a good idea of the damage,” he says. “Instead of me taking my educated guess, they’re putting science behind the predictive models.” 51. What do we know about the software’s predictions? A. They are about when an earthquake may happen. B. They are based on data from many different areas. C. They can be made before and during an earthquake. D. They can tell people the size of an earthquake. 52. What is an advantage of the software according to Deierlein? A. It can make predictions very fast. B. It is sold at very low prices. C. It has many different uses. D. It can be used by common people. 53. What does the underlined word “that” in the last paragraph refer to? A. How to save people during earthquakes. B. How to train firefighters to make guesses. C. How Ghiorso gets to know earthquake damage. D. How Ghiorso looks at new predictive models. 54. How does Ghiorso feel about the new technology? A. Worried. B. Doubtful. C. Uncaring. D. Hopeful. 55. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To tell us how to reduce earthquake damage. B. To introduce the software developed by One Concern. C. To introduce a promising company. D. To tell us how software works. 第Ⅱ卷 注意事项： 1．用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题纸上。 2．本卷共6小题，共35分。 第三部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读下列短文并回答问题。 This is a true story. One winter morning near Oxford, Maryland, a friend of mine set the breakfast table beside a large window with a view of the Tred Avon River. Across the river, beyond the dock, the snow covered the edge of the shore in white. For a moment, she stood quietly, looking at what the night’s storm had created. Suddenly, she leaned forward and peered through the icy window, trying to examine what she had seen more carefully. “It really is true,” she cried out loud. “There is a goose out there.” She saw a large Canadian goose, very still, its wings held tightly to its sides, and its feet stuck to the ice. From the dark skies, a group of swans (天鹅) appeared, flying in a straight line. They moved gracefully, bravely, and freely. Suddenly, they came down from the sky and surrounded the frozen goose. Seeing this, my friend feared the swans might hurt the goose with their strong beaks (鸟喙). Instead, their beaks began to break the ice around the goose. Eventually, the goose was surrounded by a small area of ice instead of being stuck in the frozen river. The swans flew up again, circling above, waiting to see if their work had helped. The goose lifted its head, pulled its body free, and stood on the ice. Four swans came down again, cleaning the goose’s wings with their beaks and removing the ice stuck to its feathers. The goose stretched its wings as far as it could. When its wings were fully open, the swans flew back up and continued their journey. Behind them, the goose rose into the sky with joy and joined the end of the elegant line. My friend was moved to tears. Even birds help those in trouble. I often think of this story and remind myself, “If birds can do this, why can’t humans?” 56. What does the underlined word “peered” mean in the first paragraph?
