However, after his doctors did a blood test, they found it was type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Medicine to get it under control was immediately recommended, but Soto was determined to try something different. Inspired by one of his co-workers whose husband ran the marathon, Soto applied to the TCS Marathon through an application specifically made for teachers. He had to share an article in which he spoke about his illness and was ultimately selected for the team. As he trained and developed a running habit, he received regular blood tests, and three months later, his blood sugar became normal. The marathon took place last November. Soto wasn’t able to consistently train until the beginning of August, because in June, he was also diagnosed (诊断) with Lyme disease. It was also during this time that Soto’s father passed away. Still, he used his runs as opportunities to release bad feelings and to build his strength back from being sick. “For me, it is amazing. It is like a block party, but the block party is the whole city,” he says. “During the race, you’re pounding for hours, the same joints, the same bones and muscles. Something’s beginning to feel pain, but the noise of the people out there, the music, the cheers... everything is louder than your pain.” Another thing that kept him moving forward was his students. Soto shares that his students are a motivating factor for him to recover his health. “If I’m sick and don’t feel good, that is going to affect my instruction in the classroom, my relationship with the students, and eventually the quality of me as a teacher! Teachers get burned out because sometimes they don’t balance their lives. This TCS Marathon was a great opportunity for me to balance my life.” 24. Why did Soto take part in the TCS Marathon? A. It was a way to escape from busy work. B. It was specially organized for teachers. C. He desired an alternative to medicine. D. He hoped to display his physical strength. 25. What happened to Soto before the marathon in November? A. He ran to work through emotions. B. He stuck to training constantly. C. His blood sugar got abnormal again. D. His family members left him one by one. 26. What do we know about Soto’s students? A. They take him as a role model. B. They play a role in his well-being. C. They are picky about teachers. D. They help him maintain a work-life balance. 27. What message does the text deliver? A. Prevention is better than cure. B. Sports can sometimes work wonders. C. A teacher’s love is the students’ motivation. D. Teamwork is fundamental to achieving goals. 【答案】24. C 25. A 26. B 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了56岁的教师佩德罗·索托(Pedro Soto)在确诊2型糖尿病后，选择通过参加马拉松训练来控制病情，并最终成功改善健康状况的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Medicine to get it under control was immediately recommended, but Soto was determined to try something different. (医生立即建议用药物控制病情，但索托决定尝试一些不同的方法。)”以及第二段“Inspired by one of his co-workers whose husband ran the marathon, Soto applied to the TCS Marathon through an application specifically made for teachers. (受一位同事的启发，她的丈夫跑过马拉松，索托通过一个专门为教师设计的应用程序申请参加TCS马拉松。)”可知，索托参加马拉松是想尝试一种不同于药物治疗的方法来控制病情。故选C项。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Still, he used his runs as opportunities to release bad feelings and to build his strength back from being sick. (尽管如此，他还是把跑步当作释放不良情绪和从疾病中恢复体力的机会。)”可知，在马拉松比赛前，索托通过跑步来释放不良情绪和恢复体力。A项“He ran to work through emotions. (他通过跑步来排解情绪。)”符合题意。故选A项。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Another thing that kept him moving forward was his students. Soto shares that his students are a motivating factor for him to recover his health. (另一件让他不断前进的事情是他的学生。索托分享说，他的学生是他恢复健康的一个激励因素。)”可知，索托的学生在他的健康恢复中起到了激励作用，对他的健康状况有影响。故选B项。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，特别是第二段“As he trained and developed a running habit, he received regular blood tests, and three months later, his blood sugar became normal. (随着他训练并养成了跑步的习惯，他定期接受血液检测，三个月后，他的血糖恢复了正常。)”以及最后一段索托通过跑步改善健康状况并激励学生的故事，可知文章主要传达了运动有时能创造奇迹的信息。B项“Sports can sometimes work wonders. (运动有时能创造奇迹。)”符合题意。故选B项。 C Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide. Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping. “Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains. The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent. The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.” Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits. 28. What has the study found about the cashless effect? A. It exists in acts of donation. B. It weakens with more cash use. C. It links to the living cost crisis. D. It works in specific consumption. 29. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis? A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments. C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies. 30. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Risking. B. Preserving. C. Shifting. D. Boosting. 31. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk? A. They need to be popularized. B. They are developing rapidly. C. They should be further studied. D. They will affect spending habits. 【答案】28. D 29. D 30. A 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项关于“无现金效应”的元分析研究，该研究发现消费者使用无现金支付方式时倾向于花费更多，并探讨了这一现象对个人、企业和政策制定者的启示。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping. (他们发现，无现金支付会导致人们在珠宝等身份象征商品上花费更多，而这种效应在捐赠或给小费的行为中明显不存在)”可知，研究发现“无现金效应”存在于特定的消费中。故选D项。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies. (通过这项元分析，我们确定了使无现金效应增强或减弱的关键因素，这是单项研究无法发现的。通过这样做，我们揭示了在单项研究中经常被其他研究人员忽视的新关键理解)”可知，研究团队采用元分析是为了打破单项研究的局限性。故选D项。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential (企业应该知道，不接受无现金革命可能会无意中jeopardising利润潜力)”以及前文所述无现金支付会导致消费者花费更多，因此不接受无现金支付可能会“损害”利润潜力。故划线词意为“使……冒风险；损害”，与“Risking”同义。故选A项。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. (Schomburgk强调，迫切需要对新的支付方式进行深入研究，因为由于其新颖性，关于其具体影响的研究仍然有限)”可知，新的支付方式需要进一步研究。故选C项。 D The world’s population will reach 9.5 billion by 2050, and we need more land to grow food. However, today’s farming uses 70% of the world’s fresh water, makes water dirty with chemicals, and needs a lot of fossil fuels. What’s worse, there is no new usable land left for farming. A good solution is vertical (垂直的) farms — growing crops indoors in tall buildings in cities. These farms use much less water than traditional farming, avoid droughts and floods, and produce food all year round. They also cut the cost of moving food and reduce food going bad, as food is sold near where it is grown. Some tested technologies make vertical farms possible. Drip irrigation (滴灌) sends water rich in nutrients straight to plant roots, saving a lot of water. Aeroponics (气培法) lets plants grow in air with wet air and nutrients (no soil needed), and hydroponics (水培法) grows plants in water with nutrients. All these methods work well indoors. Cities have good spaces for vertical farms, such as empty land, old buildings or rooftops. These farms can reuse city wastewater to water crops and burn plant waste to make electricity. Experts say no new technologies are needed to build good vertical farms. Vertical farms can make cities more sustainable: using resources without wasting them and keeping nature balanced. They create new jobs, offer fresh food, and do less harm to the planet. The only question is — when will we start building them? 32. What is a big problem for farming today? A. Enough land for farming. B. Little fresh water in farming. C. No population growth. D. No new usable farmland. 33. What can we infer about vertical farms? A. Vertical farms make more food go bad easily. B. Vertical farms need more fossil fuels to run. C. Vertical farms can cut down on farming pollution. D. Vertical farms take up more land than traditional farms. 34. What is the best title for the text? A. Vertical Farms:A Smart Solution for Future Farming. B. Population Growth:A Big Problem for Food Supply. C. Traditional Farming:Its High Costs and Wastes. D. New Irrigation Methods:Saving Water for Crops. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards vertical farms? A. Negative. B. Uncaring. C. Positive. D. Doubtful. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要围绕全球人口增长带来的粮食需求压力及传统农业的弊端，提出“垂直农场”这一解决方案，并从优势、支撑技术、适用空间及生态价值等方面展开说明，核心旨在凸显垂直农场对未来农业的重要意义。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“What’s worse, there is no new usable land left for farming.(更糟的是，已经没有新的可耕种的土地剩余了。)”可知，当今农业面临的重大问题是“没有可利用的新农田”。故选D。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“However, today’s farming uses 70% of the world’s fresh water, makes water dirty with chemicals, and needs a lot of fossil fuels.(然而，如今的农业消耗了全球70%的淡水，用化学物质污染水源，并且需要大量的化石燃料。)”以及第五段“Vertical farms can make cities more sustainable: using resources without wasting them and keeping nature balanced.(垂直农场能让城市更具可持续性：使用资源而不浪费它们，并且保持自然平衡。)”可知，垂直农场用环保技术且回收城市废水灌溉，避免了化学污染，能减少农业污染。故选C。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第二段中“A good solution is vertical (垂直的) farms — growing crops indoors in tall buildings in cities.(一个好的解决方案是垂直农场——在城市的高层建筑内室内种植作物。)”可知，文章核心是介绍垂直农场为未来农业提供解决方案，选项A“Vertical Farms:A Smart Solution for Future Farming.(垂直农场：未来农业的明智选择。)”符合题意。故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Vertical farms can make cities more sustainable: using resources without wasting them and keeping nature balanced. They create new jobs, offer fresh food, and do less harm to the planet.(垂直农场能让城市更具可持续性：使用资源而不浪费它们，并且保持自然平衡。它们创造新的就业机会，提供新鲜的食物，并且对地球造成更少的危害。)”可知，作者是肯定与支持的积极态度。故选C。 第二节 七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。 Are you aware that you use body language when communicating with others?

On the day of the event, each participant had to go up onstage one by one and perform their piece in front of a panel of judges and an audience. At first, Angela was excited and confident, as she had been preparing for months, practicing diligently every day under the guidance of her piano teacher. However, as her turn approached, doubts began to flood her mind. “What if I played the wrong notes? What if I forgot the notes? What if I just mess up?” Angela remembered thinking. As these worries raced through her mind, Angela watched another girl perform. The girl played beautifully. Angela couldn’t help but feel kind of jealous y and admiration. Once the girl finished, she walked off stage to where Angela was waiting and did something unexpected. “She looked at me and smiled with a thumb up.” Angela said. The simple gesture took Angela by surprise. “Her smile made me think that today I'm just right and I can perform on the stage.” Encouraged by this act of kindness, Angela took a deep breath and walked out to the piano. She sat down, closed her eyes for a moment to steady herself, and then began to play. As her fingers moved over the keys, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. The notes flowed effortlessly, and she lost herself in the music. When she finished, Angela looked up and saw her competitor clapping for her, a genuine smile on her face. Seeing such a show of support has stuck with Angela over the years. “As a competitor, she gave me respect and helped a shy girl to face the stage,” Angela said. If she could talk to that girl again, here’s what Angela would say: “You changed a moment of my life, and your kind smile remained in my memory. And I’ll take that smile at a precious gift.” 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。 Several years have passed, but Angela always takes a moment to reflect on the power of a simple smile. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Angela’s experience also inspired her to help others. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Several years have passed, but Angela always takes a moment to reflect on the power of a simple smile. “That moment was a turning point for me,” she said. “It has taught me the importance of kindness and support, even in competitive environments. And I realized that a simple gesture, like a smile, could make a world of difference to someone who was feeling nervous and unsure of themselves.” Angela continued to pursue her passion for piano, participating in more competitions and performances. Each time she stepped onstage, she remembered the girl’s smile and the confidence it gave her. Angela’s experience also inspired her to help others. She began volunteering at local music schools, offering support to young students.

However, after his doctors did a blood test, they found it was type 2 diabetes (糖尿病). Medicine to get it under control was immediately recommended, but Soto was determined to try something different. Inspired by one of his co-workers whose husband ran the marathon, Soto applied to the TCS Marathon through an application specifically made for teachers. He had to share an article in which he spoke about his illness and was ultimately selected for the team. As he trained and developed a running habit, he received regular blood tests, and three months later, his blood sugar became normal. The marathon took place last November. Soto wasn’t able to consistently train until the beginning of August, because in June, he was also diagnosed (诊断) with Lyme disease. It was also during this time that Soto’s father passed away. Still, he used his runs as opportunities to release bad feelings and to build his strength back from being sick. “For me, it is amazing. It is like a block party, but the block party is the whole city,” he says. “During the race, you’re pounding for hours, the same joints, the same bones and muscles. Something’s beginning to feel pain, but the noise of the people out there, the music, the cheers... everything is louder than your pain.” Another thing that kept him moving forward was his students. Soto shares that his students are a motivating factor for him to recover his health. “If I’m sick and don’t feel good, that is going to affect my instruction in the classroom, my relationship with the students, and eventually the quality of me as a teacher! Teachers get burned out because sometimes they don’t balance their lives. This TCS Marathon was a great opportunity for me to balance my life.” 24. Why did Soto take part in the TCS Marathon? A. It was a way to escape from busy work. B. It was specially organized for teachers. C. He desired an alternative to medicine. D. He hoped to display his physical strength. 25. What happened to Soto before the marathon in November? A. He ran to work through emotions. B. He stuck to training constantly. C. His blood sugar got abnormal again. D. His family members left him one by one. 26. What do we know about Soto’s students? A. They take him as a role model. B. They play a role in his well-being. C. They are picky about teachers. D. They help him maintain a work-life balance. 27. What message does the text deliver? A. Prevention is better than cure. B. Sports can sometimes work wonders. C. A teacher’s love is the students’ motivation. D. Teamwork is fundamental to achieving goals. C Consumers rely on various ways to pay daily expenses. The problem is that they tend to spend more with cashless payment methods in comparison to cash. This striking cashless effect has recently been confirmed by researchers from the University of Adelaide. Led by PhD Student Lachlan Schomburgk, the research team analysed 71 published and unpublished studies from 17 countries, including data from more than 11,000 unique participants. They’ve found that cashless payments lead people to spend more on status-signalling goods like jewellery, while this effect is notably absent in acts of donation or tipping. “Through this meta-analysis, we identified key factors that make the cashless effect stronger or weaker, which individual studies could not find. By doing this, we uncovered new key understandings that had often been overlooked by other researchers in individual studies.” Schomburgk explains. The findings indicate that consumers should be mindful of how they pay for goods or services, as this helps them spend less, especially critical in the current cost-of-living crisis. To avoid overspending, they’re advised to carry cash instead of cards whenever possible as a self-control method. When using cash, they count and hand over notes and coins, making spending more noticeable. If nothing is physically handed over, it’s easy to lose track of how much is spent. The study also provides useful insights for businesses and policymakers. “Businesses should know failing to accept the cashless revolution might unintentionally be jeopardising profit potential,” Schomburgk says. “And policymakers should communicate to individuals unfamiliar with cashless payments, such as people who don’t have bank accounts, about the possibility of cashless methods to lead to overspending.” Schomburgk stresses a need for urgent in-depth studies of new payment methods, as research on their specific impacts remains limited due to their novelty. Studying these methods is vital to keep pace with the evolving payment ecosystem and deepen understanding of modern consumers’ spending habits. 28. What has the study found about the cashless effect? A. It exists in acts of donation. B. It weakens with more cash use. C. It links to the living cost crisis. D. It works in specific consumption. 29. Why did the team adopt the meta-analysis? A. To solve the overspending problem. B. To compare cash and cashless payments. C. To confirm factors causing the effect. D. To break the limitations of single studies. 30. What does the underlined word “jeopardising” in Paragraph 5 mean? A. Risking. B. Preserving. C. Shifting. D. Boosting. 31. What can be inferred about new payments according to Schomburgk? A. They need to be popularized. B. They are developing rapidly. C. They should be further studied. D. They will affect spending habits. D The world’s population will reach 9.5 billion by 2050, and we need more land to grow food. However, today’s farming uses 70% of the world’s fresh water, makes water dirty with chemicals, and needs a lot of fossil fuels. What’s worse, there is no new usable land left for farming. A good solution is vertical (垂直的) farms — growing crops indoors in tall buildings in cities. These farms use much less water than traditional farming, avoid droughts and floods, and produce food all year round. They also cut the cost of moving food and reduce food going bad, as food is sold near where it is grown. Some tested technologies make vertical farms possible. Drip irrigation (滴灌) sends water rich in nutrients straight to plant roots, saving a lot of water. Aeroponics (气培法) lets plants grow in air with wet air and nutrients (no soil needed), and hydroponics (水培法) grows plants in water with nutrients. All these methods work well indoors. Cities have good spaces for vertical farms, such as empty land, old buildings or rooftops. These farms can reuse city wastewater to water crops and burn plant waste to make electricity. Experts say no new technologies are needed to build good vertical farms. Vertical farms can make cities more sustainable: using resources without wasting them and keeping nature balanced. They create new jobs, offer fresh food, and do less harm to the planet. The only question is — when will we start building them? 32. What is a big problem for farming today? A. Enough land for farming. B. Little fresh water in farming. C. No population growth. D. No new usable farmland. 33. What can we infer about vertical farms? A. Vertical farms make more food go bad easily. B. Vertical farms need more fossil fuels to run. C. Vertical farms can cut down on farming pollution. D. Vertical farms take up more land than traditional farms. 34. What is the best title for the text? A. Vertical Farms:A Smart Solution for Future Farming. B. Population Growth:A Big Problem for Food Supply. C. Traditional Farming:Its High Costs and Wastes. D. New Irrigation Methods:Saving Water for Crops. 35. What is the author’s attitude towards vertical farms? A. Negative. B. Uncaring. C. Positive. D. Doubtful. 第二节 七选五 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项多余选项。 Are you aware that you use body language when communicating with others?

On the day of the event, each participant had to go up onstage one by one and perform their piece in front of a panel of judges and an audience. At first, Angela was excited and confident, as she had been preparing for months, practicing diligently every day under the guidance of her piano teacher. However, as her turn approached, doubts began to flood her mind. “What if I played the wrong notes? What if I forgot the notes? What if I just mess up?” Angela remembered thinking. As these worries raced through her mind, Angela watched another girl perform. The girl played beautifully. Angela couldn’t help but feel kind of jealous y and admiration. Once the girl finished, she walked off stage to where Angela was waiting and did something unexpected. “She looked at me and smiled with a thumb up.” Angela said. The simple gesture took Angela by surprise. “Her smile made me think that today I'm just right and I can perform on the stage.” Encouraged by this act of kindness, Angela took a deep breath and walked out to the piano. She sat down, closed her eyes for a moment to steady herself, and then began to play. As her fingers moved over the keys, she felt a sense of calm wash over her. The notes flowed effortlessly, and she lost herself in the music. When she finished, Angela looked up and saw her competitor clapping for her, a genuine smile on her face. Seeing such a show of support has stuck with Angela over the years. “As a competitor, she gave me respect and helped a shy girl to face the stage,” Angela said. If she could talk to that girl again, here’s what Angela would say: “You changed a moment of my life, and your kind smile remained in my memory. And I’ll take that smile at a precious gift.” 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。 Several years have passed, but Angela always takes a moment to reflect on the power of a simple smile. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Angela’s experience also inspired her to help others. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
