This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing.
Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road.
On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief.
Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded.
Until suddenly, time stood still.
We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind.
Though scared speechless, I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome!
On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind.
Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation.
4. How did the author cross the bridge?
A. By taking mindful steps. B. By rushing across it bravely.
C. By using her sense of direction. D. By having the guide drag her over.
5. Why did the bears leave?
A. They were attracted by the natural setting. B. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids.
C. They were surprised at the group’s actions. D. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks.
6. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf?
A. To pick up some souvenirs. B. To reflect on the journey.
C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills.
7. What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Past the peak of youth. B. Too high to go down.
C. Out of place in society. D. Beyond physical limits.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. B 7. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者与两位年过七旬的朋友的四天荒野探险经历。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段的句子“Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs.(我盯着她的靴子,小心翼翼地沿着摇晃的圆木慢慢挪动。)”可知,作者盯着向导的靴子,小心翼翼地一步步走过摇晃的圆木桥。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第六段的句子“As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away.(当它们开始向我们走来时,我们缓过神来,大声呼喊并挥舞登山杖。它们吃了一惊,停了下来,然后慢慢转身离开。)”可知,熊被作者一行人的呼喊和挥杖动作吓到,因此转身离开。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段句子“On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind.(在我们旅行的最后一个早晨,我们在森林里安静而沉思地走了一段之后,被要求带回一根“有意义的”木棍、岩石和树叶来分享哪些会“留存”在我们心中,哪些“震撼”了我们,以及我们愿意“放下”什么)”可知,向导通过这些自然物品引导大家反思旅程中的收获与感悟。故选B项。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据最后一段的语境,向导称赞她们的健康和积极态度,并表示希望自己三四十年后也能像她们一样。这些意外的话语温暖了作者的心,缓解了她对“over the hill”的恐惧。结合前文提到的“we were all in our seventies(我们都七十多岁了)”以及“ageing(变老)”这一主题,“over the hill”指的是已过青春巅峰、年老体衰的状态。故选A项。
C
The sharp fin. The rows upon rows of sharp teeth. The large black eyes. The sharks you see on television in Jaws or Discovery’s “Shark Week” are not the friendliest-looking creatures. They aren’t exactly an animal you want to find near you while swimming in the ocean. Despite their portrayals (刻画) in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear.
One very common misunderstanding about sharks is their desire to hunt humans. When sharks attack humans, it is because they mistake a human for their normal prey, seals or dolphins. They don’t seek out humans on purpose. Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark.
Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone. Tiger sharks in Australia help protect seagrass meadows from turtles. Turtles eat the seagrass and without the sharks, they will destroy these meadows. When tiger sharks are present, though, the turtles are scared away, which controls their appetite for seagrass and promotes its growth.
Though sharks are thought to be very scary by the majority of people, the sad truth is that they should be scared of humans. The number of sharks in the ocean is steadily dropping. There are a few reasons for this. For one, they mature quite slowly, over several years, and produce relatively few young. For another, overfishing of sharks is happening because more and more people want their fins. About 100 million sharks are killed every year according to National Geographic. Shark fin is a way for people to show off their wealth. Shark fins are also believed to have medicinal benefits, though there is no evidence or proof that they actually do. Both of these ideas are putting pressure on the number of sharks in the ocean.
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To show the frightening looks of sharks on TV.
B. To introduce the main topic of the whole passage.
C. To explain why sharks are feared by many people.
D. To praise sharks for their special body features.
9. What does the author want to show by mentioning lightning in paragraph 2?
A. Sharks don’t often hunt humans. B. Sharks swim fast.
C. Shark bites are deadly. D. Sharks make mistakes.
10. Why are sharks important to the ocean?
A. They scare humans away. B. They control its food chain.
C. They maintain the ecological stability. D. They reduce the number of sea animals.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. SOS: Save Our Sharks! B. Sharks: King of the Ocean
C. Shark Fins: An Ecological Crisis D. Sharks: Killers or Misunderstood?
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍了鲨鱼外表凶悍、常被影视作品刻画成危险生物,但其实它们被人类误解;如今鲨鱼数量因过度捕捞、鱼鳍交易大幅减少,亟需被人们正确看待与保护。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文第一段“Despite their portrayals in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear. (尽管在电影和流行文化中被刻画成可怕形象,但鲨鱼其实是复杂、被误解且比外表更脆弱的生物。)”可知,第一段描写鲨鱼吓人的外形,引出全文主题:鲨鱼被误解,它们并非人们印象中那样可怕。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据原文第二段“They don’t seek out humans on purpose. Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark. (它们不会故意猎杀人类。从数据上看,人被闪电击中的概率都比被鲨鱼咬伤要大。)”可知,作者提及闪电,是为了说明鲨鱼并不经常袭击人类。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone. (鲨鱼处于食物链顶端,对海洋至关重要。部分鲨鱼仅凭威慑力就能维持生态系统平衡。)” 可知,鲨鱼的重要作用是维持海洋生态稳定。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据原文第一段“Despite their portrayals in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear. (尽管在电影和流行文化中被刻画成可怕形象,但鲨鱼其实是复杂、被误解且比外表更脆弱的生物。)”及全文内容可知,文章先打破鲨鱼是冷血杀手的刻板印象,解释其被误解的真相、生态价值,再讲述人类对鲨鱼的过度捕杀,核心围绕鲨鱼是杀手还是被误解的生物展开。
D
“You know when you walk past a parked car on a hot day and feel the heat it gives off ?” says Márcia Matias at the University of Lisbon in Portugal. “That’s real! It’s not your imagination.”
Dark-coloured cars can make a measurable difference on nearby air temperature, as they absorb (吸收) and emit (排放) more heat than lighter vehicles when sitting on the street or in a parking lot. The collective impact from hundreds of thousands or millions of cars in cities could significantly influence urban heat island effects, and even increase heat stress for passers-by during sunny days.
Matias and her colleagues measured the air temperature around two cars — one black and one white — parked outside for more than 5 hours during daylight. Their measurements showed the black car raised the surrounding air temperature by as much as 3.8°C compared to the nearby asphalt (沥青) under a clear and sunny summer sky with temperatures of 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts on the surrounding air temperature.
The reason for such temperature differences is white vehicle paint reflects between 75 and 85 percent of incoming sunlight, while black paint absorbs most incoming sunlight, reflecting just 5 to 10 percent. A car’s thin dark skin can heat up quickly under strong sunlight, unlike even very dark asphalt that is thicker and warms more slowly. “Now picture thousands of cars parked across a city, each one acting like a little heat source,” says Matias. “Their colour can actually shift how hot the streets feel.”
The researchers calculated repainting parked cars from dark to lighter colours could create cooler surfaces and lower near-surface air temperatures on sunny, low wind days. Using the city of Lisbon as an example, the change could effectively raise street-level reflectance (反射率) of incoming sunlight from just 20 percent to nearly 40 percent in areas where parked cars cover more than 10 percent of the road.
“Making use of light-coloured vehicles to relieve urban heat is particularly novel”, says Sarah Berk at the University of North Carolina. Previous studies have focused on improving roofs and pavement to reflect more sunlight.
12. Why do dark cars impact nearby air temperature more greatly?
A. Because they are in larger numbers.
B. Because more heat is trapped by them.
C. Because more sunlight is reflected by them.
D. Because they have been parked for longer time.
13. How did Matias conduct the research?
A. By analyzing the previous data.
B. By changing the incoming sunlight.
C. By tracking the change in temperature.
D. By comparing the thickness of car paint.
14. Which statement will the researchers probably agree with?
A. Dark asphalt heats up faster than dark cars.
B. Lighter paint on cars can cool down the streets.
C. Vehicle color has little impact on urban temperatures.
D. The reflectance of sunlight is mainly controlled by building materials.
15. What’s Sarah Berk’s attitude towards Matias’s research?
A. Positive. B. Critical. C. Worried. D. Uninterested.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过科学研究解释了深色汽车如何通过吸收和释放更多热量加剧城市高温,并探讨了浅色汽车对缓解热岛效应的潜在作用。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Dark-coloured cars can make a measurable difference on nearby air temperature, as they absorb and emit more heat than lighter vehicles when sitting on the street or in a parking lot.(深色汽车会对附近的空气温度产生显著影响,因为当它们停在街道或停车场时,会比浅色车辆吸收和散发出更多的热量)”可知,黑色汽车吸收更多阳光,因此会滞留更多热量,对周边气温影响更大。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Matias and her colleagues measured the air temperature around two cars — one black and one white — parked outside for more than 5 hours during daylight. Their measurements showed the black car raised the surrounding air temperature by as much as 3.8°C compared to the nearby asphalt (沥青) under a clear and sunny summer sky with temperatures of 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts on the surrounding air temperature.(Matias和她的同事们测量了白天在外面停了5个多小时的两辆车(一辆黑色,一辆白色)周围的空气温度。他们的测量结果显示,在夏季晴朗的天空下,气温为36°C时,与附近的沥青相比,黑色汽车使周围空气温度升高了多达3.8°C。与此同时,白色汽车对周围空气温度的影响要小得多)”可知,文章第三段描述了Matias的研究方法:将一黑一白两辆车停在户外超过五小时,测量它们对周围气温的影响。由此可推测出Matias是通过追踪温度的变化进行研究的。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中“The researchers calculated repainting parked cars from dark to lighter colours could create cooler surfaces and lower near-surface air temperatures on sunny, low wind days.(研究人员计算发现,将停放的汽车从深色重新喷涂为浅色,可在晴朗、低风速的日子里创造更凉爽的车身表面,并降低近地表空气温度)”,可知,研究人员计算发现,将深色汽车改为浅色汽车可降低表面和近地表的空气温度,由此可推测出,研究人员可能会同意“汽车上较浅的车漆可以给街道降温”这一说法。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Making use of light-coloured vehicles to relieve urban heat is particularly novel”, says Sarah Berk at the University of North Carolina.(北卡罗来纳大学的Sarah Berk表示:“利用浅色车辆来缓解城市高温,这一做法尤为新颖。”)”可知,Sarah Berk认为利用浅色车辆来缓解城市热量特别新颖,由此可推测出Sarah Berk对Matias的研究持积极肯定态度。故选A。
第二节(共5小题,每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。
Today, the “I don’t care” attitude is becoming increasingly popular. Phrases like “I don’t care what anybody thinks” are often blindly used to express freedom and relief. ____16____ Understanding when to adopt this mindset can make a great difference.
The “I don’t care” attitude can be quite beneficial when it motivates us to persevere, especially when others have given up. ____17____ J. K. Rowling, for instance, faced widespread doubt when proposing Harry Potter, but she kept polishing her novel without worrying about criticism. It was her persistence in crafting a magical world that eventually brought her success. As you can see in Rowling’s example, ignoring external doubts can actually help us stay focused on our own goals.
____18____ This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness (固执) or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly, focusing solely on their own desires while ignoring how interconnected people’s needs are. In the case of recent social media algorithm scandals (算法丑闻), tech giants repeatedly ignored internal researchers’ warnings about mental health harms to teenagers, claiming “not their department” Finally, it has caused uncontrollable rising anxiety and self-harm rates among young users. ____19____
Therefore, it’s crucial to reflect on why we adopt the “I don’t care” attitude. Are we motivated by confidence in our decisions, or are we simply avoiding challenges? ____20____ There are times when it’s crucial to care deeply about others, the truth, and personal growth. At other times, it’s equally important to remain indifferent to negativity, distractions, or unnecessary pressures. By carefully choosing when to adopt the “I don’t care” attitude, we can lead more fulfilling lives.
A. The key is balance.
B. Motivation comes first.
C. Great achievements tend to come from ignoring doubters.
D. When no one takes responsibility, it is everyone’s disaster.
E. This mindset, however, can also have negative consequences.
F. Others, however, are always concerned about everyone’s feelings.
G. While this attitude can be liberating, it also comes with potential risks.
【答案】16. G 17. C 18. E 19. D 20. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要探讨“我不在乎”心态的利弊,并倡导把握分寸平衡运用。
【16题详解】
由上文“Today, the “I don’t care” attitude is becoming increasingly popular. Phrases like “I don’t care what anybody thinks” are often blindly used to express freedom and relief. (如今,“我不在乎”的态度越来越流行。像“我不在乎别人怎么想”这样的话经常被盲目地用来表达自由和解脱。)”及下文“Understanding when to adopt this mindset can make a great difference. (理解何时采用这种心态会产生很大的影响。)”可知,上文讲这种态度流行且让人放松,下文提醒要理性看待,本空需转折点明态度虽洒脱但有潜在风险。G选项“虽然这种态度可以让人感到自由,但它也伴随着潜在的风险。”能承上启下,符合语境。
【17题详解】
由上文“The “I don’t care” attitude can be quite beneficial when it motivates us to persevere, especially when others have given up.(当“我不在乎”的态度激励我们坚持下去时,尤其是当别人已经放弃时,这种态度是非常有益的。)”及下文“J. K. Rowling, for instance, faced widespread doubt when proposing Harry Potter, but she kept polishing her novel without worrying about criticism. It was her persistence in crafting a magical world that eventually brought her success. (例如,J.K.罗琳在提出《哈利·波特》时面临着广泛的质疑,但她没有担心批评,继续打磨她的小说。正是她坚持创造一个魔法世界,最终给她带来了成功。)”可知,上文描述了“我不在乎”这种态度的益处,下文举了J.K.罗琳的例子,本空应进一步说明这种益处,即伟大的成就往往来自于忽视怀疑者,C选项“伟大的成就往往来自于忽视怀疑者。”能承上启下,符合语境。
【18题详解】
由第二段讲述这种心态的益处,以及下文“This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly.(人会因固执、推卸责任或自私产生不良行为。)”可知,下文介绍负面影响,此处语义转折,开始介绍这种心态的弊端。E选项“然而,这种心态也会带来负面后果。”能承上启下,符合语境。
【19题详解】
由上文“This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness (固执) or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly, focusing solely on their own desires while ignoring how interconnected people’s needs are. In the case of recent social media algorithm scandals (算法丑闻), tech giants repeatedly ignored internal researchers’ warnings about mental health harms to teenagers, claiming “not their department” Finally, it has caused uncontrollable rising anxiety and self-harm rates among young users.(这种情况发生在某人出于固执或想要推卸责任而行动,或者自私地行动,只关注自己的欲望,而忽视人们的需求是如何相互关联的。在最近的社交媒体算法丑闻中,科技巨头多次无视内部研究人员关于青少年心理健康危害的警告,声称“不是他们的部门”,最终,这导致了年轻用户中焦虑和自残率不可控制地上升。)”可知,上文描述了“我不在乎”这种态度的负面影响,本空应进一步说明这种影响的严重性,即当没有人承担责任时,就是每个人的灾难,D选项“当没有人承担责任时,就是每个人的灾难。”能承接上文,符合语境。
【20题详解】
由上文“Therefore, it’s crucial to reflect on why we adopt the “I don’t care” attitude. Are we motivated by confidence in our decisions, or are we simply avoiding challenges? (因此,反思我们为什么采取“我不在乎”的态度至关重要。我们是出于对自己决定的信心,还是仅仅在逃避挑战?)”及下文“There are times when it’s crucial to care deeply about others, the truth, and personal growth. At other times, it’s equally important to remain indifferent to negativity, distractions, or unnecessary pressures. (有时候,关心他人、真相和个人成长是至关重要的。在其他时候,对消极情绪、干扰或不必要的压力保持冷漠同样重要。)”可知,上文说明了反思我们为什么采取“我不在乎”的态度很重要,下文说明有时关心他人很重要,有时保持冷漠同样重要,本空应强调要把握分寸,说明关键是要平衡。A选项“关键是要平衡。”能承上启下,符合语境。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Are you sure this is going to be alright?” Sharon’s dad asked her after helping her carry the crib (婴儿床) she had just bought at the grocery store. She lived in an old apartment building with no elevator, so moving the crib up several stairs was too much for a young woman, especially with a two-week-old baby in her arms.
“Yes, Dad. It’ll be fine. It’s strong, and I can paint it to look new, as soon as I get my next paycheck,” she assured her father and thanked him for his efforts after putting the baby to sleep.
“You should consider moving in with us again, dear. You wouldn’t have to pay so much rent, then,” her dad said again. He had been suggesting that since Sharon lost her husband due to an unexpected accident. Sharon’s entire family was poor, and she lived paycheck to paycheck, working as a waitress. They could pool their resources and be a little more comfortable if they. lived together, but she needed her independence. At least, that’s what she thought.
Sharon shook her head, “I can’t, Dad. I need to do this on my own... But I reserve the need to take you up on that offer if anything happens later.” Her dad laughed, kissed her cheek, and, then left.
The crib was an old-style one which came with its own cushion. Sharon planned to clean it to see if it was reusable. She then lifted the pillow and threw it to the side. When the dust cleared, she spotted an envelope sitting there. She grabbed the envelope, and to her shock, it as heavier than she expected. She noticed it was-addressed to a woman in Florida, but the return address was just near her home.
Opening the envelope, her eyes widened at the cash inside. It was enough to change someone’s life. She couldn’t believe someone had just left it with the crib. This was enough to start a college fund for her child. But was she going to keep it? Could she really do something like that?
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Sharon turned the envelope and stared at the return address again.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Walking home, Sharon called her dad.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Sharon turned the envelope and stared at the return address again. She hesitated, tempted to keep it, but eventually she determined to return it according to the address. Arriving at a modest house, she and her baby were greeted by a woman named Shondra. After figuring out Sharon’s intention, she was relieved, tearfully explaining the money represented their family’s collective efforts to support their sick grandmother in Florida. Overwhelmed with gratitude, Shondra invited Sharon to her home to join their dinner, where she learned multiple generations lived together there supporting one another.
Walking home, Sharon called her dad. The experience shifted Sharon’s perspective. Witnessing the family’s warmth and mutual care despite financial struggles, she reconsidered her isolated life as a single mother. Realizing the value of raising her child surrounded by family love, she called her dad to ask about moving back, whose immediate “yes” brought tears to her eyes. The encounter not only reunited the family with their lost savings but reminded Sharon that true wealth lies in connection rather than independence. Though valuing independence, Sharon now understood family meant facing hardships together.

This summer I came face-to-face with three deep-rooted fears: heights, bears, and ageing.
Two friends joined me on a four-day wilderness getaway, and since we were all in our seventies, we decided we’d better go while we still could. Our adventure began with a scary drive up a winding mountain road.
On one hike, I found myself hanging onto a wire on a bridge made of two partly rotten (腐烂的) logs, suspended high above rushing rapids. I would never have attempted it without our guide ahead, mouthing encouraging words. Fixing my eyes on her boots, I inched along the shaky logs. Somehow, I made it across, flooded with a rush of intense excitement and huge relief.
Later, after spotting bear tracks, we were told to make loud noises, which soon became a game once the tension faded.
Until suddenly, time stood still.
We had just crossed a stream when the guide whispered, “There’s a bear.” I looked up in disbelief and saw not one, but two, about ten meters above us— the brown mother in front, her cub behind.
Though scared speechless I couldn’t help noticing how beautiful they looked in their natural setting. I wondered if it would be my last memory. As they started towards us, we recovered enough to shout and wave our hiking poles. Taken aback, they stopped, and then slowly turned away. Another fear was overcome!
On our final morning, after a quiet, thoughtful walk through the forest, we were asked to bring back a “meaningful” stick, rock, and leaf to share what would “stick” with us, what “rocked,” and what we would “leaf” behind. The bond of friendship would stick with me. Women supporting one another truly rocked. And I hoped to leave some fears behind.
Our guide ended by expressing her admiration, praising not only our fitness but also our positive attitude, and saying she hoped to be like us in another thirty or forty years. Those unexpected words warmed my heart and eased my fear of being “over the hill.” Being valued for what we had accomplished felt like winning an Olympic medal — even if just for participation.
4. How did the author cross the bridge?
A. By taking mindful steps. B. By rushing across it bravely.
C. By using her sense of direction. D. By having the guide drag her over.
5. Why did the bears leave?
A. They were attracted by the natural setting. B. They were afraid of the noise of the rapids.
C. They were surprised at the group’s actions. D. They were threatened by the guide’s rocks.
6. Why did the guide ask them for a stick, rock, and leaf?
A. To pick up some souvenirs. B. To reflect on the journey.
C. To symbolize their teamwork. D. To check their observation skills.
7. What does the underlined phrase “over the hill” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Past the peak of youth. B. Too high to go down.
C. Out of place in society. D. Beyond physical limits.
C
The sharp fin. The rows upon rows of sharp teeth. The large black eyes. The sharks you see on television in Jaws or Discovery’s “Shark Week” are not the friendliest-looking creatures. They aren’t exactly an animal you want to find near you while swimming in the ocean. Despite their portrayals (刻画) in movies and popular culture, sharks are complex, misunderstood creatures that are weaker than they appear.
One very common misunderstanding about sharks is their desire to hunt humans. When sharks attack humans, it is because they mistake a human for their normal prey, seals or dolphins. They don’t seek out humans on purpose. Statistically, you are more likely to be struck by lightning than be bitten by a shark.
Sharks are very important to the ocean as they are at the top of the food chain. Some sharks even control the balance of an ecosystem through fear alone. Tiger sharks in Australia help protect seagrass meadows from turtles. Turtles eat the seagrass and without the sharks, they will destroy these meadows. When tiger sharks are present, though, the turtles are scared away, which controls their appetite for seagrass and promotes its growth.
Though sharks are thought to be very scary by the majority of people, the sad truth is that they should be scared of humans. The number of sharks in the ocean is steadily dropping. There are a few reasons for this. For one, they mature quite slowly, over several years, and produce relatively few young. For another, overfishing of sharks is happening because more and more people want their fins. About 100 million sharks are killed every year according to National Geographic. Shark fin is a way for people to show off their wealth. Shark fins are also believed to have medicinal benefits, though there is no evidence or proof that they actually do. Both of these ideas are putting pressure on the number of sharks in the ocean.
8. What is the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To show the frightening looks of sharks on TV.
B. To introduce the main topic of the whole passage.
C. To explain why sharks are feared by many people.
D. To praise sharks for their special body features.
9. What does the author want to show by mentioning lightning in paragraph 2?
A. Sharks don’t often hunt humans. B. Sharks swim fast.
C. Shark bites are deadly. D. Sharks make mistakes.
10. Why are sharks important to the ocean?
A. They scare humans away. B. They control its food chain.
C. They maintain the ecological stability. D. They reduce the number of sea animals.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. SOS: Save Our Sharks! B. Sharks: King of the Ocean
C. Shark Fins: An Ecological Crisis D. Sharks: Killers or Misunderstood?
D
“You know when you walk past a parked car on a hot day and feel the heat it gives off ?” says Márcia Matias at the University of Lisbon in Portugal. “That’s real! It’s not your imagination.”
Dark-coloured cars can make a measurable difference on nearby air temperature, as they absorb (吸收) and emit (排放) more heat than lighter vehicles when sitting on the street or in a parking lot. The collective impact from hundreds of thousands or millions of cars in cities could significantly influence urban heat island effects, and even increase heat stress for passers-by during sunny days.
Matias and her colleagues measured the air temperature around two cars — one black and one white — parked outside for more than 5 hours during daylight. Their measurements showed the black car raised the surrounding air temperature by as much as 3.8°C compared to the nearby asphalt (沥青) under a clear and sunny summer sky with temperatures of 36°C. Meanwhile, the white car had much smaller impacts on the surrounding air temperature.
The reason for such temperature differences is white vehicle paint reflects between 75 and 85 percent of incoming sunlight, while black paint absorbs most incoming sunlight, reflecting just 5 to 10 percent. A car’s thin dark skin can heat up quickly under strong sunlight, unlike even very dark asphalt that is thicker and warms more slowly. “Now picture thousands of cars parked across a city, each one acting like a little heat source,” says Matias. “Their colour can actually shift how hot the streets feel.”
The researchers calculated repainting parked cars from dark to lighter colours could create cooler surfaces and lower near-surface air temperatures on sunny, low wind days. Using the city of Lisbon as an example, the change could effectively raise street-level reflectance (反射率) of incoming sunlight from just 20 percent to nearly 40 percent in areas where parked cars cover more than 10 percent of the road.
“Making use of light-coloured vehicles to relieve urban heat is particularly novel”, says Sarah Berk at the University of North Carolina. Previous studies have focused on improving roofs and pavement to reflect more sunlight.
12. Why do dark cars impact nearby air temperature more greatly?
A. Because they are in larger numbers.
B. Because more heat is trapped by them.
C. Because more sunlight is reflected by them.
D. Because they have been parked for longer time.
13. How did Matias conduct the research?
A. By analyzing the previous data.
B. By changing the incoming sunlight.
C. By tracking the change in temperature.
D. By comparing the thickness of car paint.
14. Which statement will the researchers probably agree with?
A. Dark asphalt heats up faster than dark cars.
B. Lighter paint on cars can cool down the streets.
C. Vehicle color has little impact on urban temperatures.
D. The reflectance of sunlight is mainly controlled by building materials.
15. What’s Sarah Berk’s attitude towards Matias’s research?
A. Positive. B. Critical. C. Worried. D. Uninterested.

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。
Today, the “I don’t care” attitude is becoming increasingly popular. Phrases like “I don’t care what anybody thinks” are often blindly used to express freedom and relief. ____16____ Understanding when to adopt this mindset can make a great difference.
The “I don’t care” attitude can be quite beneficial when it motivates us to persevere, especially when others have given up. ____17____ J. K. Rowling, for instance, faced widespread doubt when proposing Harry Potter, but she kept polishing her novel without worrying about criticism. It was her persistence in crafting a magical world that eventually brought her success. As you can see in Rowling’s example, ignoring external doubts can actually help us stay focused on our own goals.
____18____ This happens when someone acts out of stubbornness (固执) or a desire to shift blame, or acts selfishly, focusing solely on their own desires while ignoring how interconnected people’s needs are. In the case of recent social media algorithm scandals (算法丑闻), tech giants repeatedly ignored internal researchers’ warnings about mental health harms to teenagers, claiming “not their department” Finally, it has caused uncontrollable rising anxiety and self-harm rates among young users. ____19____
Therefore, it’s crucial to reflect on why we adopt the “I don’t care” attitude. Are we motivated by confidence in our decisions, or are we simply avoiding challenges? ____20____ There are times when it’s crucial to care deeply about others, the truth, and personal growth. At other times, it’s equally important to remain indifferent to negativity, distractions, or unnecessary pressures. By carefully choosing when to adopt the “I don’t care” attitude, we can lead more fulfilling lives.
A. The key is balance.
B. Motivation comes first.
C. Great achievements tend to come from ignoring doubters.
D. When no one takes responsibility, it is everyone’s disaster.
E. This mindset, however, can also have negative consequences.
F. Others, however, are always concerned about everyone’s feelings.
G. While this attitude can be liberating, it also comes with potential risks.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Are you sure this is going to be alright?” Sharon’s dad asked her after helping her carry the crib (婴儿床) she had just bought at the grocery store. She lived in an old apartment building with no elevator, so moving the crib up several stairs was too much for a young woman, especially with a two-week-old baby in her arms.
“Yes, Dad. It’ll be fine. It’s strong, and I can paint it to look new, as soon as I get my next paycheck,” she assured her father and thanked him for his efforts after putting the baby to sleep.
“You should consider moving in with us again, dear. You wouldn’t have to pay so much rent, then,” her dad said again. He had been suggesting that since Sharon lost her husband due to an unexpected accident. Sharon’s entire family was poor, and she lived paycheck to paycheck, working as a waitress. They could pool their resources and be a little more comfortable if they. lived together, but she needed her independence. At least, that’s what she thought.
Sharon shook her head, “I can’t, Dad. I need to do this on my own... But I reserve the need to take you up on that offer if anything happens later.” Her dad laughed, kissed her cheek, and, then left.
The crib was an old-style one which came with its own cushion. Sharon planned to clean it to see if it was reusable. She then lifted the pillow and threw it to the side. When the dust cleared, she spotted an envelope sitting there. She grabbed the envelope, and to her shock, it as heavier than she expected. She noticed it was-addressed to a woman in Florida, but the return address was just near her home.
Opening the envelope, her eyes widened at the cash inside. It was enough to change someone’s life. She couldn’t believe someone had just left it with the crib. This was enough to start a college fund for her child. But was she going to keep it? Could she really do something like that?
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150个左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Sharon turned the envelope and stared at the return address again
