Media literacy isn’t just a nice-to-have skill anymore - it’s essential. At its core, media literacy means understanding how media works - who created a message, why it was made, and how it’s meant to influence the audience. Students are constantly surrounded by messages: some are helpful, others misleading. Teaching them to analyze, question, and evaluate media gives them the tools to think critically and make informed choices. The good news? You can build media literacy into what you’re already doing, one step at a time.
Use Headlines as Warm-Ups
Start class with a real-world headline - ideally one related to your subject area.
Ask students:
● Is this information reliable?
● Where did it come from?
● What might be missing?
This five-minute routine builds awareness and can lead to great discussions.
Compare Two Sources
Pick two texts on the same topic but from different perspectives. This could be editorials, news articles, or video content. Ask students to compare:
● Language and tone.
● Choice of images.
● What facts are emphasized or ignored?
This is a great way to teach bias (偏见) and point of view, especially in ELA or social studies.
Build Visual Literacy
Use political cartoons, advertisements, or photos to practise interpreting:
● What’s the message?
● How is it being communicated visually?
● Who benefits from this image?
This kind of analysis helps students read beyond the text.
This is about teaching students to be curious, and you just need to model curiosity. When you say, “Let’s figure out where this came from,” you’re demonstrating to students how to think critically. And when they see you do it regularly, they start doing it too.
1. What is the primary purpose of teaching media literacy to students?
A. To arouse their interest in media.
B. To enhance their literature skills.
C. To develop their critical thinking ability.
D. To broaden their general media knowledge.
2. Which technique of teaching media literacy is recommended?
A. Using visual aids in teaching.
B. Asking students to connect two sources.
C. Providing materials that include pictures.
D. Having students figure out better headlines.
3. How can teachers best stimulate students’ curiosity?
A. Ask routine questions. B. Show, don’t just tell.
C. Reward curious students. D. Tell, don’t just watch.
B
I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurriculars (课外活动).
My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer (转学) to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way.
The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers (同伴) were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions.
In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?”
Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you.
4. Before entering Drake University, the author ________.
A. adopted a relaxing lifestyle B. longed to become a teacher
C. struggled to choose a major D. performed well academically
5. How did the author feel within the first week at Drake University?
A. Unaccustomed. B. Relieved. C. Regretful. D. Expectant.
6. What does the author think of the “Drake Busy” lifestyle?
A. It lowers students’ learning efficiency. B. It indicates students’ future success.
C. It threatens students’ well-being. D. It erases students’ self-doubt.
7. What message does the passage deliver?
A. Outsiders rarely win. B. Your own pace matters.
C. Busyness equals worthiness. D. Your anxiety drives you forward.
C
Scientists have learned more about the inner workings of the Earth. The results suggest that the Earth’s inner core may be starting to spin more slowly than the Earth.
The Earth is made up of several layers. The thin, outer layer is called the crust. Below the crust is the mantle, which makes up about 84% of the Earth’s core. Below the mantle is the Earth’s core. The Earth’s core has two parts: the outer core and the inner core. Both of these are made mainly of the metals iron and nickel. The outer core is liquid. But the inner core is a solid ball held in the liquid almost like the yolk in an egg.
Scientists suspected for a long time that the inner core might be spinning slightly differently from the way the Earth spins. In the 1990s, two scientists, Paul Richards and Xiaodong Song, studied the inner core by looking at “seismic waves” — shaking from earthquakes — that travel through the center of the Earth. They focused on groups and pairs of waves from earthquakes that naturally repeat.
If the inner core was spinning exactly with the Earth, each wave of the pair should have taken the same time to pass through the Earth. Instead, some moved faster than others. This was because they were hitting different parts of the inner core as it spun. Their studies revealed that the inner core was spinning in the same direction as the Earth, but slightly faster.
Now Dr Song and Yi Yang say that before 2009, the wave pairs showed that the inner core was spinning faster than the Earth. Around 2009, that seemed to change. The timing of the wave pairs was no longer different. The researchers believe that the inner core had started spinning at the same speed as the Earth.
The researchers noticed that the inner core’s spin also seemed to change speed in the early 1970s. The inner core may have a pattern of speeding up and slowing down every 70 years or so.
Not everyone agrees. Many scientists who study the Earth say more information is needed to figure out what is really going on.
8. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A. Illustrate a concept. B. Provide relevant information.
C. Give some examples. D. Introduce the research ways.
9. To study the inner core, scientists analyzed mainly ________.
A. in which direction the inner core spins
B. how many waves come from an earthquake
C. why waves from earthquakes repeat naturally
D. how earthquake waves go through the Earth’s center
10. What does the recent finding mainly suggest?
A. The crust is the thinnest of all layers.
B. The deep interior’s spin slowed after 2009.
C. The outer core spins faster than the mantle.
D. Seismic waves no longer pass through Earth.
11. What do many scientists think of the study result?
A. It remains to be tested out.
B. It is somewhat reasonable.
C. It is absolutely convincing.
D. It has been proved wrong.
D
In an era dominated by rapid technological advancements and the increasing demand for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) skills, the value of liberal arts education is under scrutiny. However, recent discussions and research suggest that liberal arts education remains not only relevant but essential for addressing the complex challenges of the modern world.
Liberal arts education is often defined as a multidisciplinary approach to learning. One of the key arguments in favor of liberal arts education is its role in fostering well-rounded individuals capable of navigating a rapidly changing job market. While STEM degrees often lead to higher starting salaries and more immediate job opportunities, liberal arts graduates tend to exhibit greater adaptability and versatility (多才多艺) over time. Moreover, liberal arts provide a foundation for understanding the complexities of human society and culture. In a globalized world, the ability to navigate diverse perspectives and engage with different cultures is increasingly important. The study of history, literature, and philosophy helps students develop empathy and a deeper understanding of the world around them, which is crucial in a globalized workforce where cross-cultural communication is the norm.
Another significant aspect of liberal arts education is its role in fostering ethical and responsible citizens. In a world where technology can have profound impacts on society, the humanities provide a framework for understanding the ethical implications of new developments. For example, philosophers and ethicists are crucial in addressing moral questions surrounding artificial intelligence and data privacy.
The integration of liberal arts and STEM education has also gained recognition in recent years. The STEAM (STEM + Arts) movement emphasizes the importance of combining technical skills with creativity, critical thinking, and ethical reasoning. By incorporating liberal arts into STEM education, students can develop a more well-rounded skill set that prepares them to address complex, real-world problems.
Despite the challenges posed by the digital age, liberal arts education continues to play a vital role in shaping adaptable, ethical, and culturally competent individuals. As Jeffrey Scheuer notes, “It’s the thinking, it’s the critical thinking that I argue is the common thread, really the trunk on which all of these different disciplines grow.”
12. What does the phrase “under scrutiny” underlined in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Being widely praised and encouraged.
B. Being overestimated and highly stressed.
C. Facing careful examination and questioning.
D. Receiving complete support without challenge.
13. What is the key advantage of liberal arts graduates compared to STEM graduates?
A. More flexible and diverse capabilities.
B. Specialized technical training for specific industries.
C. Expertise in ethical artificial intelligence development.
D. Higher starting salaries and immediate job opportunities.
14. Why does the author mention philosophers and ethicists in Paragraph 3?
A. To point out their lack of technical skills.
B. To highlight their involvement in designing AI systems.
C. To illustrate the significance of liberal arts to ethical reasoning.
D. To show the crucial roles of philosophy and ethics in liberal arts.
15. Which of the followings would be the most suitable title for the passage?
A. The Decline of Liberal Arts Education
B. The Integration of Liberal Arts and STEM
C. The Adaptability of Liberal Arts Graduates
D. The Value of Liberal Arts in the Digital Age

根据短文内容,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。
In China’s journey to become a manufacturing powerhouse, the spirit of craftsmanship shines. Take the engineers behind the Tiangong space station, for instance — they spent years perfecting docking parts with millimeter accuracy. High-speed rail workers test each component repeatedly until failure is virtually impossible, while deep-sea equipment designers insist on flawless welding (焊接). It is, for them, a belief and pursuit of excellence. ___16___
No wonder behind every great achievement lies the spirit of craftsmanship: focus, responsibility, commitment, and meticulousness (细致). ___17___ Machines can work with high consistency, but humans are irreplaceable in ultra-precise high-tech fields like semiconductor production, where even a tiny flaw can ruin a whole batch of chips. ___18___ In aerospace and medical devices, human judgment spots unpredictable problems that machines cannot. That is why skilled workers remain the core of innovation.
How can one develop such a mindset? ___19___ Much like a master watchmaker perfecting a watch repeatedly, modern professionals must keep refining their skills. They should treat every imperfection as a chance to improve, not a reason to stop. After all, craftsmanship is not built in a day. ___20___ Only by pursuing lifelong learning and constant self-development can they adapt to ever-advancing technology. Thus, in the world’s most advanced industries, the delicate cooperation between humans and machines will give birth to products that are safe, reliable and truly world-class, fully demonstrating the enduring power of craftsmanship.
A. With such skills and care, progress continues.
B. These are things that machines cannot replace.
C. Instead, it grows through small, steady improvements.
D. This is not the only case where human expertise matters.
E. It represents a mindset of accuracy, patience, and dedication.
F. Such demands not only technical skill but also great patience.
G. It is fostered through persistent practice and unceasing refinement.

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。
My younger sister Lily had always longed for a cat. Every birthday and every Spring Festival, she made the same wish. My parents, however, remained unconvinced, firmly believing that keeping a pet would be more trouble than pleasure, especially with two busy students in the family.
Everything changed unexpectedly one Saturday afternoon.
On my way home from school, I noticed a small gray cat sitting near the entrance of our apartment building. It wasn’t afraid at all. Instead, it followed me upstairs, slipped into our living room, and settled there as if it had already decided where it belonged. Lily let out a scream of excitement.
“She chose us!” Lily announced, her voice trembling with certainty.
My father immediately pointed to the cat hair gathering on the sofa, while my mother raised concerns about feeding schedules once exam pressure set in. After a long and cautious discussion, they finally agreed to keep the cat for one week — as a trial.
We named it “Cloud,” inspired by its soft fur. In the beginning, things went smoothly. Cloud spent most of the day sleeping and followed Lily from room to room, like a loyal shadow. But soon, problems appeared. Cloud would often knock over a flower pot, scratch the curtains, and jump onto the dining table.
Each small accident added to the growing unease. “This is exactly what we feared,”my father remarked. Lily tried to defend Cloud, promising to take full responsibility. I remained mostly silent, watching how quickly excitement gave way to tension.
On a cold evening, after Cloud accidentally spilled a cup of water onto my homework, I lost my temper and shouted. The room fell silent. Cloud jumped down at once and hid under the sofa, curling up into a ball and not taking a single step out. Lily looked up at me, tears welling in her eyes.
Later that night, I found her sitting on the floor, softly calling Cloud’s name. However, it refused to come out.
“If we send it away,” Lily asked in a low voice, “will it live a good life?”
Her question lingered in my mind long after she went to bed.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Early the next morning, we noticed Cloud fell sick and came down with a fever.
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
By the end of the week, our family had reached a decision.

I have always felt most comfortable in the classroom, and I enjoy the recognition from family and teachers for accomplishing a job well. Although I was a high achiever, I was not a student who joined every club. Throughout my life, I wanted to learn more than I wanted to be in a bunch of extracurriculars (课外活动).
My academic journey continued at a community college, where I joined the student newspaper. In the newsroom, I discovered an engaging, fast-paced world that allowed me to never stop learning. It was just what I had expected. Now my transfer (转学) to Drake University for a journalism degree was a no-brainer. It was exciting to see my future become clear, but I never pictured the shock waves headed my way.
The campus phenomenon known as “Drake Busy” was completely unexpected. The term describes the idea that constant busyness is the main indicator of college success. Within the first week, I felt heavy pressure to be active in all the ways my peers (同伴) were. I saw students trying to balance multiple jobs and organizations alongside schoolwork. As a student used to having confidence in the classroom, I felt this new standard threatened my identity and worsened my anxiety. I spent my first term struggling with doubts about my worthiness. My anxious thoughts tricked my mind into believing lies like “You’re not good enough.” A part of my mind realized those thoughts were not true, but that sensible voice was a whisper compared to the shouts of doubt. As a witness to this battle every day, I have learned that sometimes it just takes time to chip away at my mind’s inventions.
In time, I recognized that my experience as a transfer student was different but valuable. The outsider perspective helped me tackle “Drake Busy”. I watched people trying to do too much at the expense of their well-being. I wanted to shake them and say, “Why do this to yourself?”
Instead of fighting the current, I eventually learned to swim in my own lane. The pressure didn’t disappear, but my need to give in to it did. I realized that my worth wasn’t calculated by the number of meetings on my calendar, but by the real satisfaction I felt in my work. On the days I managed to balance my ambition with my peace of mind, I felt most motivated. I discovered that: true success is defined internally, not by the noise around you.

Scientists have learned more about the inner workings of the Earth. The results suggest that the Earth’s inner core may be starting to spin more slowly than the Earth.
The Earth is made up of several layers. The thin, outer layer is called the crust. Below the crust is the mantle, which makes up about 84% of the Earth’s core. Below the mantle is the Earth’s core. The Earth’s core has two parts: the outer core and the inner core. Both of these are made mainly of the metals iron and nickel. The outer core is liquid. But the inner core is a solid ball held in the liquid almost like the yolk in an egg.
Scientists suspected for a long time that the inner core might be spinning slightly differently from the way the Earth spins. In the 1990s, two scientists, Paul Richards and Xiaodong Song, studied the inner core by looking at “seismic waves” — shaking from earthquakes — that travel through the center of the Earth. They focused on groups and pairs of waves from earthquakes that naturally repeat.
If the inner core was spinning exactly with the Earth, each wave of the pair should have taken the same time to pass through the Earth. Instead, some moved faster than others. This was because they were hitting different parts of the inner core as it spun. Their studies revealed that the inner core was spinning in the same direction as the Earth, but slightly faster.
Now Dr Song and Yi Yang say that before 2009, the wave pairs showed that the inner core was spinning faster than the Earth. Around 2009, that seemed to change. The timing of the wave pairs was no longer different. The researchers believe that the inner core had started spinning at the same speed as the Earth.
The researchers noticed that the inner core’s spin also seemed to change speed in the early 1970s. The inner core may have a pattern of speeding up and slowing down every 70 years or so.
Not everyone agrees. Many scientists who study the Earth say more information is needed to figure out what is really going on.
8. What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?
A. Illustrate a concept. B. Provide relevant information.
C. Give some examples. D. Introduce the research ways.
9. To study the inner core, scientists analyzed mainly ________.
A. in which direction the inner core spins
B. how many waves come from an earthquake
C. why waves from earthquakes repeat naturally
D. how earthquake waves go through the Earth’s center
10. What does the recent finding mainly suggest?
A. The crust is the thinnest of all layers.
B. The deep interior’s spin slowed after 2009.
C. The outer core spins faster than the mantle.
D. Seismic waves no longer pass through Earth.
11. What do many scientists think of the study result?
A. It remains to be tested out.
B. It is somewhat reasonable.
C. It is absolutely convincing.
D. It has been proved wrong.
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. B 11. A

In an era dominated by rapid technological advancements and the increasing demand for STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics) skills, the value of liberal arts education is under scrutiny. However, recent discussions and research suggest that liberal arts education remains not only relevant but essential for addressing the complex challenges of the modern world.
Liberal arts education is often defined as a multidisciplinary approach to learning. One of the key arguments in favor of liberal arts education is its role in fostering well-rounded individuals capable of navigating a rapidly changing job market. While STEM degrees often lead to higher starting salaries and more immediate job opportunities, liberal arts graduates tend to exhibit greater adaptability and versatility (多才多艺) over time. Moreover, liberal arts provide a foundation for understanding the complexities of human society and culture. In a globalized world, the ability to navigate diverse perspectives and engage with different cultures is increasingly important. The study of history, literature, and philosophy helps students develop empathy and a deeper understanding of the world around them, which is crucial in a globalized workforce where cross-cultural communication is the norm.
Another significant aspect of liberal arts education is its role in fostering ethical and responsible citizens. In a world where technology can have profound impacts on society, the humanities provide a framework for understanding the ethical implications of new developments. For example, philosophers and ethicists are crucial in addressing moral questions surrounding artificial intelligence and data privacy.
The integration of liberal arts and STEM education has also gained recognition in recent years. The STEAM (STEM + Arts) movement emphasizes the importance of combining technical skills with creativity, critical thinking, and ethical reasoning. By incorporating liberal arts into STEM education, students can develop a more well-rounded skill set that prepares them to address complex, real-world problems.
Despite the challenges posed by the digital age, liberal arts education continues to play a vital role in shaping adaptable, ethical, and culturally competent individuals. As Jeffrey Scheuer notes, “It’s the thinking, it’s the critical thinking that I argue is the common thread, really the trunk on which all of these different disciplines grow.”
12. What does the phrase “under scrutiny” underlined in Paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Being widely praised and encouraged.
B. Being overestimated and highly stressed.
C. Facing careful examination and questioning.
D. Receiving complete support without challenge.
13. What is the key advantage of liberal arts graduates compared to STEM graduates?
A. More flexible and diverse capabilities.
B. Specialized technical training for specific industries.
C. Expertise in ethical artificial intelligence development.
D. Higher starting salaries and immediate job opportunities.
14. Why does the author mention philosophers and ethicists in Paragraph 3?
A. To point out their lack of technical skills.
B. To highlight their involvement in designing AI systems.
C. To illustrate the significance of liberal arts to ethical reasoning.
D. To show the crucial roles of philosophy and ethics in liberal arts.
15. Which of the followings would be the most suitable title for the passage?
A. The Decline of Liberal Arts Education
B. The Integration of Liberal Arts and STEM
C. The Adaptability of Liberal Arts Graduates
D. The Value of Liberal Arts in the Digital Age
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. C 15. D

Storms Make Us Stronger
The saying “Storms make trees take deeper roots” touches me deeply. Literally, fierce storms beat trees hard, pushing them to grow deeper roots to stand firm against wind and rain. In fact, storms refer to difficulties and hardships in our life.
This saying brings me great inspiration. No one can live a smooth life. Challenges are never punishments but gifts. They polish us and build up our willpower. Whenever I meet failures in study or troubles in life, I will face them bravely instead of giving up. Only by going through hardships can we grow stronger and achieve self-improvement.

第二节(满分 25 分)
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。
My younger sister Lily had always longed for a cat. Every birthday and every Spring Festival, she made the same wish. My parents, however, remained unconvinced, firmly believing that keeping a pet would be more trouble than pleasure, especially with two busy students in the family.
Everything changed unexpectedly one Saturday afternoon.
On my way home from school, I noticed a small gray cat sitting near the entrance of our apartment building. It wasn’t afraid at all. Instead, it followed me upstairs, slipped into our living room, and settled there as if it had already decided where it belonged. Lily let out a scream of excitement.
“She chose us!” Lily announced, her voice trembling with certainty.
My father immediately pointed to the cat hair gathering on the sofa, while my mother raised concerns about feeding schedules once exam pressure set in. After a long and cautious discussion, they finally agreed to keep the cat for one week — as a trial.
We named it “Cloud,” inspired by its soft fur. In the beginning, things went smoothly. Cloud spent most of the day sleeping and followed Lily from room to room, like a loyal shadow. But soon, problems appeared. Cloud would often knock over a flower pot, scratch the curtains, and jump onto the dining table.
Each small accident added to the growing unease. “This is exactly what we feared,”my father remarked. Lily tried to defend Cloud, promising to take full responsibility. I remained mostly silent, watching how quickly excitement gave way to tension.
On a cold evening, after Cloud accidentally spilled a cup of water onto my homework, I lost my temper and shouted. The room fell silent. Cloud jumped down at once and hid under the sofa, curling up into a ball and not taking a single step out. Lily looked up at me, tears welling in her eyes.
Later that night, I found her sitting on the floor, softly calling Cloud’s name. However, it refused to come out.
“If we send it away,” Lily asked in a low voice, “will it live a good life?”
Her question lingered in my mind long after she went to bed.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150个左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
Early the next morning, we noticed Cloud fell sick and came down with a fever.

By the end of the week, our family had reached a decision.

【答案】参考范文
Early the next morning, we noticed Cloud fell sick and came down with a fever. It huddled weakly under the sofa, emitting faint whimpers that stirred our sympathy. Lily’s eyes reddened instantly; she knelt down, gently caressing Cloud’s cold fur and murmuring soothing words. My parents rushed to purchase pet medication, while I fetched a warm towel to wrap around its tiny frame. Throughout the day, we took turns attending to it — Lily fed it warm milk with patience, my father cleaned its litter box thoroughly, and my mother monitored its temperature at regular intervals. The awkward tension in the house gradually faded, giving way to a quiet sense of unity.
By the end of the week, our family had reached a decision. We would keep Cloud permanently. Those days of caring for the sick cat made us realize that pet ownership is not just about pleasure, but also about responsibility and mutual warmth. Cloud, now fully recovered, ran around the house cheerfully, leaping onto the sofa and curling up in Lily’s lap. My parents no longer complained about the trouble; instead, they often smiled as they watched Lily play with Cloud. I even found myself looking forward to coming home to its warm welcome. This little gray cat had not just chosen us, but also bound our family closer together.
