A website of a food company. B. A medical magazine. C. An advertisement of contacts. D. A fashion design. B Luo Xikun started as a kitchen helper, and later became a food deliveryman (送货员). After changing different jobs since the age of 18, Luo has finally got his dream job—flying drones (无人机) in Shenzhen. For him, this is not just a job but the start of a new life. Interested in how machines work since he was a child, Luo had always wanted to find a job about machine operation. He often watched people work with machines and wished he could do something like that. When Meituan started to look for drone pilots from its delivery people, he decided to have a try to achieve his dream. He knew it would be hard, but he was ready to take the challenge. He joined the training program. The training was not easy, but he worked hard every day. After the training, he passed the special test on drone flying and got the qualification certificate (资格证书). Then he was chosen to be a special drone flyer for Meituan in a hard competition. Many people wanted the job, but he stood out because of his skills and hard work. His job was not only in Shenzhen but also in other places where Meituan needed drone delivery. On August 16, 2024, Beijing started its first drone delivery service for goods in the Badaling part of the Great Wall. Luo was sent there to take on this special task. This makes it possible for tourists to get things to cool them down in summer and get help fast in just a few minutes. In the past, it used to take about 50 minutes to walk to the delivery place. Now, with the help of drones, people can get what they need much faster. To Luo, this task is difficult but exciting. Drone route planning and testing used to be done mostly in cities where the takeoff and landing places have almost the same height. But this route along the Great Wall has a height difference of 200 meters. It means he had to plan the route more carefully and test it many times to make sure it was safe. Luo says that the Great Wall shows the wisdom and greatness of ancient Chinese people, and today’s success makes it possible for people to experience the Great Wall more conveniently. “I feel very proud,” he says. 31. How long did people walk to the delivery place before? A. One hour. B. A few minutes. C. About 50 minutes. D. About 200 minutes. 32. Why does Luo think the Great Wall drone route is difficult? A. Because this route has a height difference of 200 meters. B. Because the weather on the Great Wall is too hot in summer. C. Because Meituan did not provide enough training for him. D. Because there are too many tourists on the Great Wall. 33. Which is the correct order of events according to the passage? ①Luo was sent to the Great Wall to fly drones for delivery. ②Luo passed the special test and got the qualification certificate. ③Luo started as a kitchen helper at the age of 18. ④Luo was chosen to be a special drone flyer for Meituan. ⑤Luo decided to have a try when Meituan looked for drone pilots. A. ③→⑤→②→④→① B. ③→⑤→②→①→④ C. ③→②→⑤→④→① D. ③→②→⑤→①→④ 34. What can we learn from the passage? A. Luo Xikun gave up his dream because the job was too difficult. B. Drone delivery along the Great Wall is much easier than in cities. C. Hard work and strong interest can help people achieve their dreams. D. The Great Wall drone delivery service was first started in Shenzhen. 35. What is the best title for this passage? A. The History of Drone Delivery in China B. The Dream of a Man from Kitchen to Sky C. The Future of Drone Technology in China D. The Way of Becoming a Food Deliveryman C Labubu, a cute toy with big teeth and fluffy fur from Chinese brand (品牌) Pop Mart, has become very popular worldwide. It shows how Chinese companies are changing people’s original opinions about them by creating new things, sharing cultural stories and bringing their own characters to the world. Many young people love Labubu not just because it looks cute, but also because it makes them feel connected to a larger story. China used to make lots of cheap toys for foreign brands. But now, companies with toys like Labubu are changing the toy business. They don’t just sell toys—they sell stories and feelings too. This new way of doing business has attracted a growing number of fans both at home and abroad. Pop Mart, the company that created Labubu, is leading this change. Its overseas earnings grew nearly 5 times in early 2025. Other Chinese toy companies like TOP TOY and 52TOYS are also doing well in global (全球的) markets. This toy craze shows China’s growing cultural industry. In 2024, China’s cultural businesses made over 14 trillion yuan, up 6% from 2023. That is a huge number and it keeps rising year by year. China’s toy industry, especially in cities like Dongguan—where one-fourth of the world’s cartoon toys are made—supports this growth with fast production and smart technology. Factories there can turn new ideas into real products very quickly. A factory owner said: “If you can make toys for Pop Mart, you can make any designer toy.” As a result, Chinese character toys have increased their global market share from just 3% in 2020 to 18% in 2025. China is moving from selling products to selling its own brands. This shift proves that China is moving beyond making things to become a creator of cultural icons, using imagination to win hearts worldwide. Labubu isn’t just a toy—it’s a symbol of how China’s stories are now being shared across the globe. 36. How does the writer start the passage? A. By asking questions. B. By telling a story. C. By listing numbers. D. By giving an example. 37. How much did China’s cultural businesses make in 2023? A. About 13.2 trillion yuan. B. Over 14 trillion yuan. C. About 14.8 trillion yuan. D. Less than 13 trillion yuan. 38. What did the factory owner mean by saying the underlined sentence? A. Pop Mart is difficult to work with. B. Dongguan makes many cartoon toys. C. Designer toys are more popular than other toys. D. China’s toy production has reached a high level. 39. What does the underlined word “shift” in the last paragraph most likely mean? A. 产品 B. 变化 C. 市场 D. 品牌 40. What is the writer’s attitude (态度) towards China’s toy industry? A. Worried. B. Curious. C. Hopeful. D. Doubtful. D Reshi completed a 12-page children’s book, Alice and Sparkle, with the help of a chatbot called ChatGPT. A chatbot is a computer program that uses AI to imitate human thinking and writing. The book’s text was produced using it, and Reshi created illustrations (插图) using another AI program, Midjourney, which translates words into images. When Reshi posted the book online, it was really popular with the children. And some people praised him for his intelligence. However, not everyone was pleased. Some artists were critical (批判性的). They pointed out the poor quality of the artwork. The more serious problem, they said, was the way the art was made. Midjourney searches through millions of images across the Internet. It uses algorithms (算法) to find patterns in those images and create new ones. Think of the artists who upload their works online. Midjourney uses their works without their permission (允许). Some companies have already chosen AI over human talent. At a comedy club, an AI-powered robot told jokes, instead of human beings. And the San Francisco Ballet used images generated by Midjourney to make its ballet show The Nutcracker more popular by advertising. Many artists and writers are nervous about their future. Will people pay them for their work if it can be done more cheaply by using AI? “As a person who makes money and finds joy in the writing, I’m troubled to see people look for cheap alternatives (替代品) rather than actual human writing,” journalist Josephine says. There should be protections for artists and authors whose work might be used in AI algorithms. There’s real concern (担忧). The tech industry that’s working on these tools should involve artists in the process of creation. 41. What did Reshi use to write the book’s text? A. ChatGPT B. Midjourney C. A robot D. A journalist 42. What does Midjourney help people do? A. Write stories B. Draw pictures C. Tell jokes D. Design ballets 43. Why were some artists unhappy with Reshi’s book? A. The book was too short. B. The story was not interesting. C. The AI used their works without permission. D. The book was not popular with children. 44. What example is given to show AI replaces human work? A. A child wrote a book. B. An AI robot told jokes. C. A ballet dancer used AI. D. A teacher used AI in class. 45. What do many artists worry about? A. AI will be too expensive. B. People won’t buy their creative work. C. AI cannot work fast enough. D. They can’t learn to use AI. 第二部分 非选择题（共55分） 四、任务型阅读 （共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词，每个空格只填一个单词。 Lying on the Red Mountain in Lhasa, the capital of Xizang, the Potala Palace is one of the most famous buildings in the world.
