M: I’d certainly stand out in your country. W: Yes. Most people in China have black hair. I’ve been to Italy as well and most people there seem to have black hair. M: Most people in the world have black hair. W: But we all go grey eventually. A lot of my work is putting the colour back into ladies’ hair. M: Well, mine just needs cutting. My wife always tells me when it’s getting too long. W: Do you want some taking off the back? M: Just make it thinner all round. 听第8段材料，回答第10至12题。 11．What did the woman first check? A．The TV set.

C．She got a new remote control. 13．What will the woman probably do next? A．Use the cleaner. B．Turn on the satellite box.

M: Did you try the remote control? W: I most certainly did. I even changed the batteries. M: OK. I think there isn’t a problem with the TV. It just needs to be linked to the box provided by the satellite company, and at the moment it isn’t. W: I don’t understand how that happened.

I don’t just mean that I play a lot of sports — although I do run and go to the gym several times a week. What I mean is that … I’m a person who likes to get involved in things. I’ve organized a lot of social events in my life. A recent one was against the building of a new car park in the center of my hometown. And that was successful actually; we got it stopped or at least delayed. So, as I was saying, I’m a firm believer in taking action. W: And your current situation? M: Well, I graduated from university two years ago with a degree in journalism, but I haven’t been able to find a job that really suited me. To be honest, newspapers aren’t an easy world to break into, unless you have the right contacts. So instead, I decided on a fresh approach, which was to seek out companies I admire, basically any company or organization that’s working for some positive good in society. And that’s how I found you. And my hope is that when I find the right company, they’ll see that I have the right attitude and the right skills, so that we can both benefit from working together, um, yeah … 听第10段材料，回答第18至20题。 18．What did the speaker think of the hotel’s advertisement? A．Misleading. B．Creative. C．Traditional. 19．What can we learn about the speaker’s room? A．Its shower wasn’t working. B．Its door couldn’t be closed. C．Its maintenance wasn’t timely. 20．What did the speaker imply in the end? A．The hotel fitted budget travelers. B．The quality mismatched the expense. C．The location justified the room price. 【答案】18．A 19．C 20．B 【原文】   M: Recently, I stayed at the Royal Inn in the town of Bright Bay. It was a disappointing experience to say the least. The hotel was not at all as advertised on its website. The pictures showed beautiful gardens, when in truth, these gardens consisted of one bed of roses next to the parking lot. The rest of the space around the hotel was taken up by a busy road and a vacant lot. A pool was advertised, but we found there was no water in it. The only promise on the website that was kept was that free Internet access would be available in the rooms. In addition, the rooms were in very poor condition. The door to my room was broken and only opened and shut with great difficulty and a loud Bang, which is just shocking. Even worse, there were muddy handprints in the shower. I felt like I needed to clean everything before I could use it. It was disgusting. If this hotel had been very cheap, perhaps the problems would be forgivable. However, it was an average-priced hotel. I would never recommend it to anyone. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分 50 分） 第一节 （共 15 小题；每小题 2.5 分，满分 37.5 分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Foster (寄养) Volunteer Application for Large Dogs We are currently seeking foster volunteers for large dogs (50 pounds and up) only.

My teaching career started at 18, branching into two areas. After secondary school, I studied to become a PE teacher. While studying, I took a job teaching English to young learners at my former private language school. In this way, I could help my parents to make ends meet. Though insecure at first, I believed I could improve at the job, inspired by my role model, teacher Alex Campo, who’d sparked (激发) my love for English. However, when I graduated, I had to choose between English and PE. What began as a short-term English job had become an interest. I kept part-time roles in both fields but eventually focused more on English. I signed up for Translation Studies and have kept learning about English since that first teaching job in 1986. Then, in the late 1990s, my view of teaching changed. I still taught, but I looked beyond the classroom. My growing interest in educational technology connected me with global educators, changing my career. With the help of my mentor (导师) Susan Hillyard’s help, I started giving conference presentations and writing materials. Later, I got a major publishing deal and a 2010 Latin American Scholarship to attend the IATEFL conference — opportunities that contributed to my professional growth in the ELT community. Since then, I’ve balanced teaching, reflection, teacher training, writing, and presenting, all enabled by cooperating with teachers globally. Being a “connected teacher” through social media and in-person interactions deepened my involvement with English education and opened my mind. Now, I give back by guiding teachers, volunteering, and supporting others — repaying the early career help I received. After nearly 30 years, English teaching remains my love; I have no regrets. For me, teaching boils down to: exploring, connecting, sharing, and learning. 24．Why did Vicky teach English before graduation? A．To ease her family’s burden. B．To prepare for future career. C．To follow her teacher. D．To stick to her dream. 25．What did Vicky gain after graduation? A．Outdoor teaching skills. B．Bigger social networks. C．Book translation fees. D．Online study chances. 26．What can be inferred from Vicky’s career? A．She wrote with her mentor. B．She balanced life and work. C．She aimed for all-round growth. D．She hosted a global conference. 27．What does Vicky’s story show? A．Great oaks from little acorns grow. B．No cross, no crown. C．Knowledge is power. D．Like teacher, like pupil. 【答案】24．A 25．B 26．C 27．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述教师Vicky Saumell的职业发展历程，以及她深耕英语教育领域并实现自我成长的故事。 【详解】24．细节理解题。根据第一段中的“While studying, I took a job teaching English to young learners at my former private language school. In this way, I could help my parents to make ends meet.(学习期间，我在之前就读的私立语言学校找了一份教低龄学生英语的工作。这样一来，我就能帮父母维持生计)”可知，Vicky毕业前教英语是为了缓解家庭的经济负担。故选A项。 25．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“My growing interest in educational technology connected me with global educators, changing my career.(我对教育技术日益增长的兴趣让我结识了全球的教育工作者，这改变了我的职业生涯)”以及第三段中的“Since then, I’ve balanced teaching, reflection, teacher training, writing, and presenting, all enabled by cooperating with teachers globally.(从那以后，我成功兼顾了教学工作、教学反思、教师培训、文稿撰写以及会议演讲等多项事务，而这一切都离不开与全球同仁的协作)”可知，Vicky毕业后收获了更广泛的社交网络。故选B项。 26．推理判断题。通读全文，根据第三段“With the help of my mentor (导师) Susan Hillyard’s help, I started giving conference presentations and writing materials. Later, I got a major publishing deal and a 2010 Latin American Scholarship to attend the IATEFL conference — opportunities that contributed to my professional growth in the ELT community. Since then, I’ve balanced teaching, reflection, teacher training, writing, and presenting, all enabled by cooperating with teachers globally.(在导师苏珊・希利亚德的帮助下，我开始在各类学术会议上发表演讲，并撰写教学资料。后来，我拿到了一笔重要的出版合约，还获得了2010年拉美地区奖学金，得以出席国际英语教师协会年会——这些机遇助力我在英语语言教学领域实现了专业成长。从那以后，我成功兼顾了教学工作、教学反思、教师培训、文稿撰写以及会议演讲等多项事务，而这一切都离不开与全球同仁的协作)”可知，Vicky毕业后兼顾体育与英语教学，之后攻读翻译学，又凭借对教育技术的兴趣结识全球教育者，还涉足会议演讲、教材编写、教师培训等多个领域，由此可推知，她追求的是全方位的职业成长。故选C项。 27．推理判断题。根据最后一段“Now, I give back by guiding teachers, volunteering, and supporting others — repaying the early career help I received. After nearly 30 years, English teaching remains my love; I have no regrets. For me, teaching boils down to: exploring, connecting, sharing, and learning.(如今，我通过指导教师、参与志愿工作以及帮扶他人来回馈行业——以此报答职业生涯初期所获得的帮助。从事英语教学近 30 年，这份事业依旧是我的挚爱，我无怨无悔。对我而言，教学的本质可以归结为四个词：探索、联结、分享与学习)”可知，Vicky的职业起点是一份帮家里维持生计的兼职英语教学工作，后来这份短期工作逐渐发展为她的兴趣，她不断学习和拓展领域，最终在英语教育界实现了多方面的职业成就，这正印证了“万丈高楼平地起”的道理。故选A项。 C Shadow puppetry, an ancient Chinese art form dating back over 2,000 years, uses leather figures manipulated behind a lit screen to tell stories. Originally performed for emperors, it evolved into a folk entertainment, blending music, drama, and craftsmanship. Creating a puppet is a meticulous process. Artisans select donkey or cowhide, scrape off hair, and carve intricate patterns with knives. Colors are applied using natural pigments, and joints are attached with threads for movement. A single puppet may take weeks to complete. Performances often feature historical tales like Journey to the West or local legends, accompanied by string and percussion instruments. In modern times, shadow puppetry faces challenges. Younger generations show less interest, and traditional artisans are aging. However, efforts to revive it include workshops in schools and collaborations with digital artists. For example, some troupes now project animated backgrounds onto the screen, merging tradition with technology. 28．What material is traditionally used to make shadow puppets? A．Paper. B．Wood. C．Leather. D．Silk. 29．How long might it take to make a single puppet? A．A few days. B．Several weeks. C．A month. D．Half a year. 30．What is a modern effort to revive shadow puppetry? A．Performing only for emperors. B．Merging with digital animation. C．Stopping the use of natural pigments. D．Limiting performances to historical tales. 31．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The decline of traditional arts in China. B．The history and revival of shadow puppetry. C．How to make shadow puppets step by step. D．The role of music in shadow puppet performances. 【答案】28．C 29．B 30．B 31．B 【导语】本文主要讲述了皮影戏的历史渊源、制作过程、面临的挑战以及人们为复兴它而采取的努力。 【详解】28．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Shadow puppetry, an ancient Chinese art form dating back over 2,000 years, uses leather figures manipulated behind a lit screen to tell stories.(皮影戏是一种可追溯到2000多年前的中国古老艺术形式，它通过在发光屏幕后方操控皮偶来讲述故事)”以及第二段中“Artisans select donkey or cowhide, scrape off hair, and carve intricate patterns with knives.(工匠挑选驴皮或牛皮，刮去毛发，再用刀雕刻出复杂的花纹)”可知，传统皮影的制作材料是皮革。 29．细节理解题。根据第二段“A single puppet may take weeks to complete.(制作一个皮影可能需要数周时间才能完成)”可知，制作单个皮影需要几周时间。 30．细节理解题。根据原文第三段“However, efforts to revive it include workshops in schools and collaborations with digital artists. For example, some troupes now project animated backgrounds onto the screen, merging tradition with technology.(不过，复兴皮影戏的工作包括在学校开设工坊，以及和数字艺术家合作。例如，如今一些演出团体将动画背景投射到幕布上，实现了传统与技术的融合)”可知，现代复兴皮影戏的一项举措是结合数字动画进行创新。 31．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第一段介绍了皮影戏的起源与发展，第二段介绍了皮影的传统制作工艺和表演特点，第三段介绍了皮影戏当代面临的困境以及复兴举措，全文围绕皮影戏的发展历史与当代复兴展开。 D Some people think if you are happy, you are blind to reality. But when we research it, happiness actually raises every single business and educational result for the brain. How did we miss this? Why do we have these social misunderstandings about happiness? Because we assumed you were average. When we study people, scientists are often interested in what the average is. Many people think happiness is genetic.That’s only half the story,because the average person does not fight their genes. When we stop studying the average and begin researching positive outliers — people who are above average for a positive aspect like optimism or intelligence — a wildly different picture appears. Our daily decisions and habits have a huge impact upon both our levels of happiness and success. Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its limited resources as you process the world. If you scan the negative first, your brain really has no resources left over to see the things you are grateful for or the meaning embedded (嵌入) in your work. But if you scan the positive, you start to acquire an amazing advantage. I wrote the cover story for the Harvard Business Review magazine on “Happiness Leads to Profits”. Based on my article called “Positive Intelligence” and my research in “The Happiness Advantage”, I summarised the conclusion of our research: the single greatest advantage in the modern economy is a happy and busy workforce. A decade of research in the business world proves that happiness raises nearly every business and educational outcome (成果): increasing sales by 37%, productivity by 31%, and accuracy on tasks by 19%, as well as a number of health and quality-of-life improvements. 32．The underlined word “this” in the first paragraph refers to “________”. A．the fact that people are happy B．the connection between happiness and educational result C．the fact that most people are average D．the fact that people often misunderstand happiness 33．What can we learn from the passage? A．Scientists are only interested in what the average is. B．You can choose to be happy or not. C．Our decisions and habits have nothing to do with happiness. D．The average are not happy at all. 34．Why does the writer mention his articles and research? A．To support his point about happiness. B．To arouse the readers’ interest. C．To advertise himself. D．To attract the readers to read his articles. 35．What is the author’s purpose of writing this article? A．To explain what is happiness. B．To describe the misunderstandings about happiness. C．To show people the importance of happiness. D．To make the point that happiness promotes business and educational outcome. 【答案】32．B 33．B 34．A 35．D 【导语】这是一篇议论文。文章针对“幸福”一主题展开论述的，论述了幸福能够促进商业和教育方面的成果。 32．词句猜测题。根据第一段“But when we research it, happiness actually raises every single business and educational outcome for the brain.(但研究表明，幸福感实际上能提升大脑在所有商业和教育领域的表现结果)”可知，当我们研究幸福的时候，它实际上提高了大脑的每一个业务和教育结果。由此推知，下文中的this指代的是上一句中“幸福和教育结果之间的关系”。故选B。 33．细节理解题。根据第三段“If you scan for the negative first, your brain really has no resources left over to see the things you are grateful for or the meaning embedded (嵌入) in your work. But if you scan the world for the positive, you start to acquire an amazing advantage.(你如果心态消极，那么你就看不见你所感恩的东西，同样也看不到工作的意义。但是如果你积极的细看这个世界，你会开始获得令人意想不到的益处)”可知，幸福就是一个选择，你可以选择快乐你也可以选择悲伤，关键在于你自己。即：你可以选择快乐或者不快乐。故选B。 34．推理判断题。根据第四段“I wrote the cover story for the Harvard Business Review magazine on “Happiness Leads to Profits”. Based on my article called “Positive Intelligence” and my research in “The Happiness Advantage”,  I summarised the conclusion of our research: the single greatest  advantage in the modern economy is a happy and busy workforce.(我为《哈佛商业评论》杂志撰写了题为“幸福带来收益”的封面文章。这篇文章基于我所著的《积极智慧》一书以及我在《幸福优势》一书中所做的研究，总结了我们的研究结论：在当今经济中，最显著的优势在于拥有快乐且忙碌的员工队伍)”可推知，作者提及自己写的文章和调查研究，是为了支撑中心论点——幸福感。故选A。 35．推理判断题。根据文章的主要内容，尤其第一段的“But when we research it, happiness actually raises every single business and educational outcome for the brain. How did we miss this? Why do we have these social misunderstandings about happiness?(当我们研究幸福的时候，它实际上提高了大脑的每一个业务和教育结果。我们为什么会错过这一点呢？为什么我们会对快乐产生这些社会误解呢？)”可知， 本文主要围绕人的幸福感展开论述的，通过人们对幸福的不同理解和作者的佐证，以及利用研究调查得出一个重要结论——幸福感可以促进业务和增强教育成果。由此推知，作者撰写这篇文章的目的是想表明，幸福能够促进商业和教育方面的成果。故选D。 第二节 (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。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Improving English reading skills is essential not only for academic success but also for professional growth and personal enjoyment.

But while their 41 have been massive, their names and their stories have 42 been publicized. Physicist Jess Wade wanted to 43 the stories of great scientific pioneers who may be overlooked and she 44 a unique way to do that: writing Wikipedia pages. Wade told CBS News that while the 45 of women in science is small in comparison to that of men, she has always had 46 in the field. When she was a graduate student,Wade 47 an inspiring woman in science,Kim Cobb,who is a climate scientist at Brown University. "So when I met her I thought she is a(n) 48 person and I need to learn more about her. When I did a little search, I couldn't 49 any information about her. What I 50 was a Wikipedia page but it wasn't there." That's how Wade got the 51 —to start writing Wikipedia pages for diverse people in science who don't yet have them. In her free time, Wade searches the Internet to 52 information,and then she gets to work writing Wikipedia pages. She's written more than 1,700 so far. Wade is now making a 53 for herself in science,and she knows she wouldn't be here without those who came before her.“We all have a role to 54 in making science a more diverse and 55 place," she said. 41．A．ambitions B．potentials C．achievements D．demands 42．A．naturally B．permanently C．rarely D．regularly 43．A．share B．choose C．read D．appreciate 44．A．thought little of B．came up with C．passed down D．left out 45．A．goal B．progress C．responsibility D．number 46．A．concepts B．role models C．safety rules D．followers 47．A．referred to B．turned down C．ran across D．took in 48．A．awesome B．ordinary C．serious D．patient 49．A．remember B．identify C．offer D．find 50．A．desired B．accepted C．recommended D．acknowledged 51．A．help B．order C．belief D．idea 52．A．collect B．post C．manage D．correct 53．A．suggestion B．will C．name D．request 54．A．make B．play C．select D．decide 55．A．fairer B．safer C．quieter D．wider 【答案】 41．C 42．C 43．A 44．B 45．D 46．B 47．C 48．A 49．D 50．A 51．D 52．A 53．C 54．B 55．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍历史上有很多女性取得了杰出的成就，可是她们却默默无闻。物理学家 Jess Wade想通过自己的努力来改变这一现状。 41．考查名词词义辨析。句意：但是，尽管他们取得了巨大的成就，他们的名字和故事却很少被公开。A. ambitions追求，理想；B. potentials潜力；C. achievements成就；D. demands需求。根据上文“Throughout history, female scientists, engineers and mathematicians have changed the world.”可知，这些女士取得了巨大的“成就”。故选C。 42．考查副词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. naturally自然地；B. permanently永久地；C. rarely很少；D. regularly规律地。根据上文“while”一词可知上下文是转折关系，这些女士虽然成就巨大，但是“很少”被报道和宣传。故选C。 43．考查动词词义辨析。句意：物理学家杰斯·韦德想要分享那些可能被忽视的伟大科学先驱的故事，她想出了一种独特的方式：撰写维基百科页面。A. share分享；B. choose选择；C. read阅读；D. appreciate欣赏。根据下文“who may be overlooked and she　　4　　a unique way to do that: writing Wikipedia pages.”可知，物理学家Jess Wade想在网上“分享”她们的故事。故选A。 44．考查动词短语辨析。句意：同上。A. thought little of不重视；B. came up with想出；C. passed down传递；D. left out遗漏。根据下文“a unique way to do that: writing Wikipedia pages.”可知Jess Wade “想出”了一个独特方法，故选B。 45．考查名词词义辨析。句意：韦德告诉CBS新闻，虽然与男性相比，科学领域的女性人数较少，但她总是能找到该领域的榜样。A. goal目标；B. progress进步；C. responsibility责任；D. number数量。根据上文“of women in science is small in comparison to that of men”可知比起男性科学家来说女性科学家的“人数”较少，故选D。 46．考查名词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. concepts概念；B. role models模范；C. safety rules安全规则；D. followers追随者。根据上下文的转折关系和“in the field”可知是找到（值得仿效的）优秀的人或物。故选B。 47．考查动词短语辨析。句意：当韦德还是一名研究生时，她遇到了一位令人鼓舞的科学女性，布朗大学的气候科学家金·科布(Kim Cobb)。A. referred to提到；B. turned down拒绝；C. ran across偶然遇见；D. took in吸收。 分析上下文可知Jess Wade 读研究生时，“遇到”一位从事科学的优秀女性——Kim Cobb，故选C。 48．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：所以当我见到她时，我觉得她是一个很棒的人，我需要更多地了解她。A. awesome很好的；B. ordinary普通的；C. serious严重的；D. patient耐心的。根据下文“I need to learn more about her.”可知，Kim Cobb是一位“了不起的”人。故选A。 49．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我稍微搜索了一下，找不到任何关于她的信息。A. remember记住；B. identify认出；C. offer提供；D. find找到。根据上文“When I did a little search”，可知没有找到信息。故选D。 50．考查动词词义辨析。句意：我想要的是一个维基百科页面，但那里没有。A. desired渴望；B. accepted接受；C. recommended推荐；D. acknowledged承认。根据下文“was a Wikipedia page but it wasn't there.”可知Jess Wade想找到有关Kim Cobb的维基百科网页信息。故选A。 51．考查名词词义辨析。句意：这就是韦德如何得到这个想法的——开始为科学领域还没有页面的不同人士撰写维基百科页面。A. help帮助；B. order订单；C. belief信心；D. idea想法。根据下文“to start writing Wikipedia pages for diverse people in science who don't yet have them.”可知Jess Wade上面的经历激发她产生了编写维基百科网页的想法。故选D。 52．考查动词词义辨析。句意：在她的空闲时间，韦德搜索互联网收集信息，然后她开始写维基百科页面。A. collect收集；B. post发布；C. manage管理；D. correct纠正。根据上文“to start writing Wikipedia pages for diverse people in science who don't yet have them.”可知Jess Wade搜索网页的目的是收集有关女性科学家的信息。故选A。 53．考查名词词义辨析。句意：韦德现在在科学界名声大噪，她知道如果没有前辈，她就不会站在这里。A. suggestion建议；B. will意志力；C. name名声，名字；D. request要求。由于Jess Wade 所从事的工作，她在科学领域也“出名”了。make a name for oneself=make one's name意为“成名；出名”。故选C。 54．考查动词词义辨析。句意：她说：“我们都有责任使科学成为一个更多样化、更公平的地方。” A. make制造；B. play开始起作用；C. select选择；D. decide决定。根据下文“in making science a more diverse and　　15　　place,”可知Jess Wade 认为，我们有责任是科学更多样化，更公平。play a role是固定短语，意为“发挥作用；起作用”。故选B。 55．考查形容词词义辨析。句意：同上。A. fairer更公平的；B. safer更安全的；C. quieter更安静的；D. wider更宽的。根据整篇文章叙述，可知Jess Wade所做的事是为那些被忽略的女性科学家发声，这显然是为了让科学领域变得“更公平”。故选A。 第二节：(10个小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site in Gansu Province, is home 56 thousands of Buddhist murals (壁画) and statues created over 1,000 years. These artworks, 57 (date) from the 4th to 14th centuries, reflect the cultural exchange along the ancient Silk Road. The grottoes face serious threats, 58 (include) sandstorms, humidity, and tourist damage. To protect them, experts use advanced technology. For example, 3D scanning 59 (help) create digital copies of fragile murals, preserving details that might fade over time. Local conservators (修复师) play 60 key role. They remove dirt with soft brushes and repair cracks using materials similar 61 the original ones. “Every brushstroke requires patience,” said Mr. Wang, a veteran conservator. “We’re not just fixing art — we’re connecting 62 the past.” Tourists are also educated on preservation. Rules limit daily visitors to 6,000 and ban flash photography. Some grottoes are 63 (close) periodically for maintenance. Efforts have paid off. In 2023, a joint exhibition in Paris showcased digital replicas of Mogao art, 64 (attract) global attention. As one visitor said, “Seeing these murals reminds us that beauty needs 65 (protect) for future generations.” 【答案】 56．to 57．dating 58．including 59．helps 60．a 61．to 62．with 63．closed 64．attracting 65．protecting/to be protected 【导语】文章主要讲述了敦煌莫高窟的艺术价值、面临的威胁及保护措施。 【详解】56．考查介词。句意：甘肃的联合国教科文组织世界遗产敦煌莫高窟，拥有一千多年来创作的数千件佛教壁画和雕像。​根据固定搭配be home to表示“是……的家园/所在地”。 57．考查非谓语动词。句意：这些艺术品创作于4世纪至14世纪，反映了古丝绸之路上的文化交流。空处为非谓语动词作定语，These artworks与动词date是主动关系，故用现在分词作后置定语。 58．考查介词。句意：石窟面临着严重的威胁，包括沙尘暴、湿气和游客造成的破坏。​ 此处表示“包含、包括”列举威胁的种类，应使用介词 including。 59．考查时态与主谓一致。句意：例如，3D扫描技术正帮助制作脆弱壁画的数字副本，以保存那些可能随着时间推移而褪色的细节。​空处为句子的谓语动词，句子描述客观事实，用一般现在时，主语为3D scanning，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。 60．考查冠词。句意：当地的文物修复师们扮演着关键的角色。​play a key role“发挥关键作用”，为 固定搭配。 61．考查介词。句意：他们用软刷清除污垢，并使用与原材料相似的物料修补裂缝。​ (be) similar to“与……相似”，为固定搭配。 62．考查介词。句意：我们不仅仅是在修复艺术——我们是在与过去建立连接。​connect with“与……相连、与……联系”，为固定短语。 63．考查形容词。句意：一些洞窟会定期关闭以进行维护。​ 空处作表语，应填形容词。 64．考查非谓语动词。句意：2023年巴黎联合展览展示了莫高窟艺术的数字复制品，吸引了全球关注。主句已有谓语showcased，attract用现在分词作结果状语，表示自然而然的结果。 65．考查非谓语动词。句意：正如一位游客所说：“看到这些壁画提醒我们，美丽需要为子孙后代保护。”主语beauty与protect是被动关系，所以用need doing或者need to be done，表示“某事需要被做”。 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分 15 分) 66．假设你是高中生李华，你的英国笔友Mike给你写了一封e-mail，询问你最崇拜的中国科学家是谁，请根据以下要点用英语给他回信： 1.对钟南山的简单介绍； 2.喜欢他的理由； 3.从他身上得到的启示。 Name Zhong Nanshan Brief introduction Aged90; famous medical scientist; the Medal of the Republic; brave fighter Main events managed the SARS (非典)  outbreak; COVID-19 epidemic (新冠疫情) 注意：1. 适当增加相关细节，以使行文连贯； 2. 词数120左右。 Dear Mike, I’m honoured that you’re interested in getting to know about the greatest Chinese scientist in my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】One possible version: Dear Mike, I’m honoured that you’re interested in getting to know about the greatest Chinese scientist in my mind.

In the shop, old Mr Barry Smith, the current owner, was quiet and patient. He always focused on one of small clock parts and wound-up springs. His grandson, Leo, saw a different world. To him, the shop was old-fashioned and boring, compared to the digital world of his phone. He spent his summer days here because he had to learn from his grandfather. He watched his grandfather look through a magnifying glass, tweezers (镊子) in hand, and fix broken watches and clocks. In his opinion, the work seemed painfully slow and useless in an age of cheap throw-away watches. One afternoon, a woman brought a very damaged old pocket watch. “It was my great-grandfather’s,” she said, her voice full of hope. “Everyone says it cannot be fixed.” The surface of the watch was bent, the glass broken, and it lay silent in Mr Barry’s hand. Leo expected his grandfather to say no. However, Mr Barry’s eyes grew gentle. “Time,” he said softly. He agreed to try and told the woman to come to the shop the next day. Mr Barry was patient as usual. He drew pictures, carefully cleaned each tiny part, and even made a small replacement gear (替代齿轮) out of yellow copper. He spoke to the watch, not with words, but with the focused silence of his hands. Slowly, the separate pieces began to come together. Mr Barry brought the watch to his ear. Soft, uncertain tick (滴答声) started, then grew stronger, steadier—a heartbeat came back. He handed the watch to Leo and said, “Listen.” Leo, surprised, lifted it to his own ear. The sound was clear, deep, and alive. It was no longer just tick. 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。 The next day, still lost in the watch’s tick, Leo didn’t notice the woman’s arrival. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Putting his phone away, Leo took the old broken alarm clock out of his desk. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】     The next day, still lost in the watch’s tick, Leo didn’t notice the woman’s arrival. When she walked in, he finally looked up, a bit startled. Mr Barry smiled at the woman and handed her the pocket watch. The woman’s eyes widened with disbelief as she heard the clear ticking. Tears welled up in her eyes. “It’s like my great-grandfather is with me again,” she whispered. Leo watched this scene, deeply touched. For the first time, he realized the magic his grandfather could create, breathing new life into these old timepieces. Putting his phone away, Leo took the old broken alarm clock out of his desk. He remembered how he had carelessly broken it as a child. Now, inspired by his grandfather, he decided to fix it. He looked at the various parts, a little nervous but also determined. He tried to recall the steps his grandfather had taken with the pocket watch. He started cleaning the parts gently, his hands moving with new-found patience. As he worked, he felt a new connection to the world of these mechanical wonders, leaving behind the digital distractions. 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述 Smith 家族世代经营名为The Timeless的钟表维修店，现任店主 Barry Smith先生安静且有耐心。他的孙子 Leo 觉得店铺老式又无聊，相比之下更喜欢手机的数字世界。一个下午，一位女士带来一块损坏严重的祖传怀表，Barry 先生答应尝试修理，最终成功让怀表重新走动，这给 Leo 带来了很大触动。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“第二天，利奥还沉浸在手表的滴答声中，丝毫没注意到那个女人的到来。”可知，第一段围绕女士来取表展开。描述女士到来时 Leo 的反应，以及女士看到修好的怀表后的惊喜与感动，Leo 也因此首次意识到祖父工作的神奇之处。 ②由第二段首句内容“利奥收起手机，从书桌里拿出了那只老旧的坏闹钟。”可知，第二段续写要体现 Leo 受到祖父影响，决定修理自己儿时弄坏的闹钟。描述他修理闹钟时的紧张与决心，开始耐心清理零件，逐渐与机械世界建立起新的联系，放下了对数字世界的关注。。 2.续写线索：女士取表时的反应让Leo 感悟到祖父工作的魅力——Leo 受影响决定修理旧闹钟——开始耐心操作——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①微笑：smile /beam ②意识到：realize/be aware of ③决定：decide/determine 情绪类 ①触动的：touched/moved ②惊讶的：startled/astonished 【点睛】【高分句型 1】The woman’s eyes widened with disbelief as she heard the clear ticking.（运用 as 引导时间状语从句） 【高分句型 2】He tried to recall the steps his grandfather had taken with the pocket watch.（运用省略关系词 that 的定语从句 “his grandfather had taken with the pocket watch” 修饰先行词 steps） ( 4 / 21 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 暑假收心卷01 英 语 （考试时间：120分钟 试卷满分：150分） 考生注意： 1．答题前，请务必将自己的姓名、准考证号用黑色字迹的签字笔或钢笔分别填写在试题卷和答题纸规定的位置上。 2. 答题时，请按照答题纸上“注意事项”的要求，在答题纸相应的位置上规范作答，在本试题卷上的作答一律无效。 3．难度系数：0.75。 4．考试结束后，将本试卷和答题卡一并交回。 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 注意，听力部分答题时请先将答案标在试卷上，听力部分结束前你将有两分钟的时间将答案转涂到答题上。 第一节(共5小题; 每小题1.5分, 满分7.5分) 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话读两遍。 1．How much will the woman pay?

While studying, I took a job teaching English to young learners at my former private language school. In this way, I could help my parents to make ends meet. Though insecure at first, I believed I could improve at the job, inspired by my role model, teacher Alex Campo, who’d sparked (激发) my love for English. However, when I graduated, I had to choose between English and PE. What began as a short-term English job had become an interest. I kept part-time roles in both fields but eventually focused more on English. I signed up for Translation Studies and have kept learning about English since that first teaching job in 1986. Then, in the late 1990s, my view of teaching changed. I still taught, but I looked beyond the classroom. My growing interest in educational technology connected me with global educators, changing my career. With the help of my mentor (导师) Susan Hillyard’s help, I started giving conference presentations and writing materials. Later, I got a major publishing deal and a 2010 Latin American Scholarship to attend the IATEFL conference — opportunities that contributed to my professional growth in the ELT community. Since then, I’ve balanced teaching, reflection, teacher training, writing, and presenting, all enabled by cooperating with teachers globally. Being a “connected teacher” through social media and in-person interactions deepened my involvement with English education and opened my mind. Now, I give back by guiding teachers, volunteering, and supporting others — repaying the early career help I received. After nearly 30 years, English teaching remains my love; I have no regrets. For me, teaching boils down to: exploring, connecting, sharing, and learning. 24．Why did Vicky teach English before graduation? A．To ease her family’s burden. B．To prepare for future career. C．To follow her teacher. D．To stick to her dream. 25．What did Vicky gain after graduation? A．Outdoor teaching skills. B．Bigger social networks. C．Book translation fees. D．Online study chances. 26．What can be inferred from Vicky’s career? A．She wrote with her mentor. B．She balanced life and work. C．She aimed for all-round growth. D．She hosted a global conference. 27．What does Vicky’s story show? A．Great oaks from little acorns grow. B．No cross, no crown. C．Knowledge is power. D．Like teacher, like pupil. C Shadow puppetry, an ancient Chinese art form dating back over 2,000 years, uses leather figures manipulated behind a lit screen to tell stories. Originally performed for emperors, it evolved into a folk entertainment, blending music, drama, and craftsmanship. Creating a puppet is a meticulous process. Artisans select donkey or cowhide, scrape off hair, and carve intricate patterns with knives. Colors are applied using natural pigments, and joints are attached with threads for movement. A single puppet may take weeks to complete. Performances often feature historical tales like Journey to the West or local legends, accompanied by string and percussion instruments. In modern times, shadow puppetry faces challenges. Younger generations show less interest, and traditional artisans are aging. However, efforts to revive it include workshops in schools and collaborations with digital artists. For example, some troupes now project animated backgrounds onto the screen, merging tradition with technology. 28．What material is traditionally used to make shadow puppets? A．Paper. B．Wood. C．Leather. D．Silk. 29．How long might it take to make a single puppet? A．A few days. B．Several weeks. C．A month. D．Half a year. 30．What is a modern effort to revive shadow puppetry? A．Performing only for emperors. B．Merging with digital animation. C．Stopping the use of natural pigments. D．Limiting performances to historical tales. 31．What is the main idea of the passage? A．The decline of traditional arts in China. B．The history and revival of shadow puppetry. C．How to make shadow puppets step by step. D．The role of music in shadow puppet performances. D Some people think if you are happy, you are blind to reality. But when we research it, happiness actually raises every single business and educational result for the brain. How did we miss this? Why do we have these social misunderstandings about happiness? Because we assumed you were average. When we study people, scientists are often interested in what the average is. Many people think happiness is genetic.That’s only half the story,because the average person does not fight their genes. When we stop studying the average and begin researching positive outliers — people who are above average for a positive aspect like optimism or intelligence — a wildly different picture appears. Our daily decisions and habits have a huge impact upon both our levels of happiness and success. Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its limited resources as you process the world. If you scan the negative first, your brain really has no resources left over to see the things you are grateful for or the meaning embedded (嵌入) in your work.

In the shop, old Mr Barry Smith, the current owner, was quiet and patient. He always focused on one of small clock parts and wound-up springs. His grandson, Leo, saw a different world. To him, the shop was old-fashioned and boring, compared to the digital world of his phone. He spent his summer days here because he had to learn from his grandfather. He watched his grandfather look through a magnifying glass, tweezers (镊子) in hand, and fix broken watches and clocks. In his opinion, the work seemed painfully slow and useless in an age of cheap throw-away watches. One afternoon, a woman brought a very damaged old pocket watch. “It was my great-grandfather’s,” she said, her voice full of hope. “Everyone says it cannot be fixed.” The surface of the watch was bent, the glass broken, and it lay silent in Mr Barry’s hand. Leo expected his grandfather to say no. However, Mr Barry’s eyes grew gentle. “Time,” he said softly. He agreed to try and told the woman to come to the shop the next day. Mr Barry was patient as usual. He drew pictures, carefully cleaned each tiny part, and even made a small replacement gear (替代齿轮) out of yellow copper. He spoke to the watch, not with words, but with the focused silence of his hands. Slowly, the separate pieces began to come together. Mr Barry brought the watch to his ear. Soft, uncertain tick (滴答声) started, then grew stronger, steadier—a heartbeat came back. He handed the watch to Leo and said, “Listen.” Leo, surprised, lifted it to his own ear. The sound was clear, deep, and alive. It was no longer just tick. 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。 The next day, still lost in the watch’s tick, Leo didn’t notice the woman’s arrival. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Putting his phone away, Leo took the old broken alarm clock out of his desk. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ ( 1 / 10 ) 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $英语听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将答案转涂到客观题答题卡上请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面5段对话，每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题，每段对话读两遍。Hello, i'd like to book a higher car for tomorrow, please, and I also need to add an extra driver.

The hotel was not at all as advertised on its website. The pictures showed beautiful gardens when, in truth, these gardens consisted of one bed of roses next to the parking lot. The rest of the space around the hotel was taken up by a busy road and a vacant lot. A pool was advertised, but we found there was no water in IT. The only promise on the website that was kept was that free internet access would be available in the rooms. In addition, the rooms were in very poor condition. The door to my room was broken and only opened and shut with great difficulty and a loud bang, which is just shocking. Even worse, there were muddy hand friends in the shower. I felt like I needed to clean everything before I could use IT. IT was disgusting. If this hotel had been very cheap, perhaps the problems would be forgivable. However, IT was an average Price hotel. I would never recommend them to anyone. Recently, I stayed at the royal park in the town of bright bay. IT was a disappointing experience, to say the least.
