We need math for many things–for science, for building everything from houses to bridges, and for powering the computers and smartphones we use in our everyday lives. Numbers are everywhere in nature. Let’s explore two examples. A honeycomb is made up of hexagons. The six-sided shapes can fit together perfectly, allowing bees to save space and materials. Another example is the sunflower. Its seeds grow in special patterns. If you count them, you will often find numbers like 21, 34 or 55, where each new number is the sum (总和) of the two before it. This allows the sunflower to grow the most seeds in its center. The first people to count almost certainly used their hands and ten fingers to help, like children today. As a result, our modern counting system is based on tens. Nine Chapters is a famous ancient Chinese mathematics book. It was written about 2,000 years ago. This book is like a practical guidebook. It collects 246 problems on topics like farming, trade, and engineering. This book was a key math textbook in Asia for centuries. 21. Why does the writer give examples of the things that need math in everyday life? A. To show how important math is. B. To show how interesting math is. C. To show how difficult math is in daily life. 22. Why do we count in groups of ten according to the passage? A. Because it is easier to write. B. Because ten is common in life. C. Because people have ten fingers. 23. Which of the following is the right picture of a hexagon? A. B. C. 24. What question is NOT answered in the passage? A. Who wrote “Nine Chapters”? B. Why do the sunflower seeds grow in a special pattern? C. How many problems does “Nine Chapters” collect? 25. Where do you probably find the passage? A. A website about nature. B. A magazine about science. C. A guidebook about culture. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. B 24. A 25. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了数学在自然界和日常生活中的应用，包括蜂巢的六边形结构、向日葵种子数列、十进制计数法的由来以及中国古代数学著作《九章算术》，展现了数学与世界的紧密联系。 【21题详解】 根据第一段中“We need math for many things—for science, for building everything from houses to bridges, and for powering the computers and smartphones we use in our everyday lives”可知，作者列举科学、建造房屋桥梁、电脑智能手机等例子，意在说明数学在日常生活中的重要性。 【22题详解】 根据“Counting in ten”部分中“The first people to count almost certainly used their hands and ten fingers to help, like children today. As a result, our modern counting system is based on tens.”可知，人们以十为组计数是因为人有十根手指，这是最初计数的依据。 【23题详解】 根据“Numbers in nature”部分中“A honeycomb is made up of hexagons.The six-sided shapes can fit together perfectly, allowing bees to save space and materials. ”可知，hexagon（六边形）由six-sided shapes描述，对比三个图形选项，B选项是六边形。 【24题详解】 根据“Mathatics in ancient China”部分中“ It was written about 2,000 years ago.”可知，文中未提及《九章算术》的作者；根据“Numbers in nature”部分中“ Its seeds grow in special patterns...This allows the sunflower to grow the most seeds in its center.”可知，解释了向日葵种子特殊排列的原因；根据“Mathatics in ancient China”部分中“It collects 246 problems on topics like farming, trade, and engineering. ”可知《九章算术》收集的问题数量。 【25题详解】 文章介绍了数学在自然界中的应用（蜂巢、向日葵）、计数方法及中国古代数学成就，涵盖了科学、文化等领域，最可能出现在科学杂志中。 B For many foreigners, Chinese characters may seem like a mix of lines without any rules. But to Lena, a 20-year-old girl from Northern Virginia, US, each one tells its own story. In her eyes, the character “kan (侃)” looks like a singing jellyfish, and the traditional form of “wu (無)” lets her think of a sheep. What’s more, the simple form of character “wu (吴)” reminds her of a famous pop star, Michael Jackson. She drew it as if Michael were dancing. She posted it on a Chinese social media platform. To her surprise, many loved it. Then, she tried to draw them as she saw them. Lena noticed that many Chinese characters “stood out as looking like different objects”. Now, thanks to Lena’s drawings, more people are thinking about language, art and cultural exchange. Some people think that Lena seems to understand the beauty of Chinese characters even better than many Chinese people. “It’s because you all are used to seeing the characters,” said Lena. She said that if you change to the opposite, it is also true. For example, she learned from her Chinese friends that the letters “orz” in English together look like a person who gets down on his knee to say sorry. Lena’s story shows that language is more than just words. She also encourages Chinese learners to talk with native speakers. “It’s more fun if you are teaching them your language and they’re teaching you theirs at the same time because then it’s more of a cultural exchange.” 26. What are Chinese characters like for Lena? A. Cute animals. B. Different objects. C. A mix of lines without rules. 27. What does Lena describe “wu” (吴) according to the passage? A. B. C. 28. Why does the writer give the example of “orz”? A. To tell learning a new language is not easy. B. To encourage us to learn more about Chinese characters. C. To show Chinese people can also understand the beauty of English letters. 29. What is Lena like according to the passage? A. She is proud of her invention. B. She gets used to Chinese characters. C. She is good at learning a new language. 30. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Learning a Language in Fun Ways. B. Happy Culture Exchange. C. The Challenges of Learning Chinese. 【答案】26. B 27. A 28. C 29. C 30. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了来自美国弗吉尼亚州的20岁女孩Lena如何用独特视角看待中国汉字——她将“侃”看作唱歌的水母、“無”联想成绵羊、“吴”想象成跳舞的迈克尔·杰克逊，并通过绘画在社交媒体上分享，引发人们对语言、艺术和文化交流的思考。 【26题详解】 第一段指出“But to Lena, a 20-year-old girl from Northern Virginia, US, each one tells its own story”，Lena认为每个汉字都在讲述自己的故事；第二段进一步说明“Lena noticed that many Chinese characters ‘stood out as looking like different objects’”，Lena注意到许多汉字“看起来像不同的物体”；这说明对Lena而言，汉字像是不同的物体。 【27题详解】 第一段描述“the simple form of character ‘wu’ (吴) reminds her of a famous pop star, Michael Jackson. She drew it as if Michael were dancing”，简体字“吴”让她想起流行巨星迈克尔·杰克逊，她画的“吴”就像迈克尔在跳舞；图片A显示的是跳舞的人物形象，与描述相符。 【28题详解】 第三段说明Lena的观点“It’s because you all are used to seeing the characters”，中国人习惯了看汉字，所以不太会联想；她举例“she learned from her Chinese friends that the letters ‘orz’ in English together look like a person who gets down on his knee to say sorry”，她从中国朋友那里学到英文字母“orz”看起来像一个人跪下道歉；这个例子是用来说明中国人也能理解英文字母的形象美，即反过来也是成立的。 【29题详解】 最后一段指出“She also encourages Chinese learners to talk with native speakers. ‘It’s more fun if you are teaching them your language and they’re teaching you theirs at the same time’”，Lena鼓励中文学习者与母语者交流，认为互相教语言是一种文化交流；这说明Lena擅长学习新语言（能从不同角度理解汉字，还能用绘画表达，并鼓励语言交流）。 【30题详解】 文章讲述Lena将汉字想象成各种有趣的形象（水母、绵羊、跳舞的杰克逊）并分享在社交媒体上，第二段提到“more people are thinking about language, art and cultural exchange”，更多人开始思考语言、艺术和文化交流；最后一段强调“it’s more of a cultural exchange”，这是一种文化交流；全文围绕“用有趣的方式看待/学习语言”展开。 C a On October 11, Natalie Grabow set the record as the oldest woman ever to finish the race in the 2025 Ironman World Championship (铁人三项世锦赛) at the age of 80. In 2005, she took part in a half-Ironman for the first time. That’s pretty impressive for a woman who couldn’t swim until she was in her fifties. Now Ms. Grabow has completed the Ironman 11 times in total. b Scientists at King’s College London have come up with a very unusual toothpaste made from sheep’s wool (羊毛). The keratin (角蛋白) in wool can produce a structure very much like enamel that coats our teeth. The toothpaste can not only clean teeth, but also help protect and repair the enamel in a safer and more natural way. c On October 6, two brothers set a new world record for the heaviest pumpkin ever grown. Ian and Stuart Paton are twins. They’re now 64 years old. The brothers live in the United Kingdom, where the weather can make it hard to grow giant pumpkins. Record-setting pumpkins have often come from places with warm weather all through the summer. d Three Scottish brothers, Jamie, Ewan and Lachlan Maclean have set a new world record for rowing across the Pacific Ocean unsupported in the fastest time ever. The three suffered seasickness and storms, while raising 700,000 pounds for providing people in Africa with clean water. The Macleans said the experience also helped them see life in a new way. 31. When did Natalie start to take part in a half-Ironman race? A. In her fifties. B. In her sixties. C. In her eighties. 32. What makes the toothpaste unusual? A. It makes the teeth very clean. B. It can repair the enamel of teeth. C. It was made by scientists in the college. 33. What can we infer from the passage c? A. The two brothers grew the best pumpkins. B. The twins have been living together for sixty years. C. The weather in the UK is not always warm in summer. 34. Why did the three brothers row across the Pacific Ocean? A. To raise money for charity. B. To fight against the storms. C. To experience a new way of life. 35. What’s the shared theme of the four passages? A. Fun facts. B. Best records. C. Amazing achievements. 【答案】31. B 32. B 33. C 34. A 35. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，由四则独立的短新闻组成，分别介绍了四位个人或团队创造的非凡纪录或独特发明，包括高龄铁人三项选手、羊毛牙膏、巨型南瓜和横渡太平洋的兄弟，整体围绕“令人惊叹的成就”这一主题展开。 【31题详解】 根据文段a第一句“On October 11, Natalie Grabow set the record as the oldest woman ever to finish the race in the 2025 Ironman World Championship at the age of 80.”可知，2025年她80岁，由此推算出她出生于1945年；再根据第二句“In 2005, she took part in a half-Ironman for the first time.”可知，2005年她第一次参加半程铁人三项；计算可知2005年娜塔莉的年龄为60岁（2005-1945=60）。 【32题详解】 根据文段b：“Scientists at Kings College London have come up with a very unusual toothpaste made from sheep’s wool…The toothpaste can not only clean teeth, but also help protect and repair the enamel in a safer and more natural way.”可知，这款牙膏的特殊之处是它可以修复牙釉质。 【33题详解】 根据文段c：“The brothers live in the United Kingdom, where the weather can make it hard to grow giant pumpkins. Record-setting pumpkins have often come from places with warm weather all through the summer.”可推知，英国夏季并非始终温暖。 【34题详解】 根据文段d：“The three suffered seasickness and storms, while raising 700,000 pounds for providing people in Africa with clean water.”为非洲民生项目筹款属于慈善活动，因此他们划船横渡太平洋的目的是为慈善筹钱。 【35题详解】 通读四则内容可知：a是高龄运动员的创举，b是科学家的新型发明，c是种植领域的新纪录，d是划船领域的新纪录，四个内容的共同主题都是惊人的成就；其中b项内容不属于纪录，因此排除Best records，也不是单纯的趣闻，排除Fun facts，故选Amazing achievements。 B卷（共50分） 一、短文填空 从下面方框中选择10个单词，并将其正确形式填入短文，使短文意思正确通顺（每词限用一次）。 admire ask convenient easy guess how if offer necessary seldom strange turn In the past, asking locals for directions was the most popular way to find your way.

There is a little space between them, and you can even see the sky through these breaks. This is called “crown (树冠) shyness”. Meg Lowman, a tree expert, explains that it’s a very wise way for trees to stay healthy. Trees are always competing for sunlight and water. With more space, trees can grow bigger and stronger. By keeping a certain distance from each other, they also lower the chance of losing leaves and flowers when they brush against neighbouring trees in the wind. Leaves help trees get sunlight while flowers develop into fruits. Also, just like we stay away from sick people, trees keep their leaves from touching other trees. This helps stop harmful (有害的) insects and illness from spreading. “Nature is connected closely with human beings,” Lowman says. Forests help clean the air we breathe. Healthy trees offer us cool places in summer and clean water better. They also provide homes for so many amazing animals and plants. “The healthier the forest is, the more benefits the owner will get,” he says. “When a tree gets sick, don’t just cut it down. Trees support many living things like insects and birds. That’s how they keep the balance,” the expert adds. Trees know that being good neighbors helps everyone stay healthy and strong—that’s a great lesson for us too! Just like trees need their space, keeping a private space from others is also important for us. So next time you see trees, remember they touch us to be good neighbors. Crown Shyness—The wisdom of trees It is a fact that the trees keep some space on the tops to avoid ____51____ to keep healthy. The reasons that Crown Shyness happens * Trees with more space grow bigger and stronger because they can win more ____52____ * Trees lose leaves and flowers when they brush against the trees nearby in the wind. * It prevents harmful insects and the sicknesses from spreading. The ____53____ between nature and human beings * The benefits we get from the trees: Forests help clean the air we breathe. Trees offer us cool places and clean water better. Trees provide homes for animals and plants. Sick trees support insects and birds to ____54____. * The lesson we learn from the tree: It’s important to respect (尊重) the ____55____ of other people. 【答案】51. touching (each other) 52. sunlight and water 53. connection 54. keep the balance 55. private space 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了“树冠羞避”现象及其原因，并探讨了自然与人类的密切联系，以及人类可以从中得到的启示。 【51题详解】 根据文章第一段“the tops of trees don’t actually touch each other.”可推知结论树木在顶部保留一些空间以避免相互接触从而保持健康，avoid doing sth.意为“避免做某事”。故填touching (each other)。 【52题详解】 根据文章第二段“Trees are always competing for sunlight and water.”可推知结论树木有了更多的空间就能赢得更多的阳光和水分。故填sunlight and water。 【53题详解】 根据文章第三段“Nature is connected closely with human beings”可推知结论此处讲述的是自然与人类之间的联系，此处需要填入名词形式。故填connection。 【54题详解】 根据文章第三段“Trees support many living things like insects and birds. That’s how they keep the balance”可推知结论生病的树木支持昆虫和鸟类来保持生态平衡。故填keep the balance。 【55题详解】 根据文章第四段“keeping a private space from others is also important for us.”可推知结论我们从树木身上学到的教训是尊重他人的私人空间很重要。故填private space。 B. 任务型阅读 根据短文内容，按要求回答问题。 Rubbish can be seen everywhere even on the highest mountain in the world! Sherpas (夏尔巴人) working on Mount Qomolangma have to go on a four-hour hike across dangerous broken ice to bring rubbish back to the base camp. Now during the climbing season, they have new help from two drones produced by a Chinese company. They can complete the same journey only in six minutes. Drones have been used to transport rubbish from Mount Qomolangma Camp 1, which sits at 6,065 meters above sea level, down to the base camp, about 700 meters below. A drone transports things like ropes up the peak. After that, Sherpas hook (钩) a rubbish-filled bag on the drone. Then the drone takes the rubbish back to the base camp. Between mid-April and mid-May this year, the drones dealt with more than 280 kilograms of rubbish. Using robots can help not only speed up the process but also reduce the danger for the Sherpas who carry rubbish down the mountain. Mount Qomolangma has seen more and more rubbish since the 1990s. The problem is worse at higher campsites, which are also more challenging to clean. Since 2019, the Nepalese (尼泊尔) government and Sherpas have worked together to clean more than 100 tons of waste. In the last ten years, the government has also made rules that require climbers who go above the base camp to carry back at least 8 kilograms of rubbish each, or they will be fined up to $4,000. 56. Who produced the two drones? ___________________________________________________________ 57. How long does it take a drone to complete the same journey that Sherpas do? ___________________________________________________________ 58. How many steps do the drone and Sherpas work together to deal with the rubbish? ___________________________________________________________ 59. What will happen if a climber breaks the rule that the Nepalese government has made? ___________________________________________________________ 60. What do you think of the drones? Why do you think so? ___________________________________________________________ 【答案】56. A Chinese company. 57. Only six minutes. 58. Three. 59. The climber will be fined up to $4,000. 60. I think they are very helpful. Because they can help speed up the process and reduce the danger for the Sherpas. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了中国公司生产的无人机帮助夏尔巴人清理珠穆朗玛峰上的垃圾，这不仅加快了清理速度，还减少了夏尔巴人运送垃圾下山的危险。 【56题详解】 第二段第一句明确指出“Now during the climbing season, they have new help from two drones produced by a Chinese company.”。这是原文中的信息，直接提取。 【57题详解】 第二段最后一句明确指出“They can complete the same journey only in six minutes.”。这是原文中的信息，直接提取。 【58题详解】 根据第三段“A drone transports things like ropes up the peak. After that, Sherpas hook a rubbish-filled bag on the drone. Then the drone takes the rubbish back to the base camp.”可知，无人机和夏尔巴人合作处理垃圾共需要三个步骤：①无人机将绳索等物品运上山峰；②夏尔巴人将装满垃圾的袋子挂在无人机上；③无人机将垃圾带回大本营。故填Three。 【59题详解】 第四段最后一句明确指出“In the last ten years, the government has also made rules that require climbers who go above the base camp to carry back at least 8 kilograms of rubbish each, or they will be fined up to $4,000.”。答案几乎是原文引述。 【60题详解】 本题是开放性试题，答案不唯一。结合文中无人机的作用回答，言之有理即可。 四、书面表达（计15分） 61. 当今社会发展迅速，终生学习成为一种必要。你校英语电视台正在举办“To be a lifelong learner”的主题活动，请你根据下图文信息，为学校撰写一篇演讲稿。 要求： 1. 演讲稿应包含所有图文信息； 2. 演讲稿内不能出现真实姓名和学校名称； 3. 词数：80词左右。 To be a lifelong learner ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 例文 To be a lifelong learner Hello, everyone!

Since 第三部分 阅读理解（共15小题；计30分） 八、阅读下列短文，根据短文内容选择最佳选项。（共15小题；每小题2分，计30分） A Math is the study of numbers and how they relate to each other and the world. We need math for many things–for science, for building everything from houses to bridges, and for powering the computers and smartphones we use in our everyday lives. Numbers are everywhere in nature. Let’s explore two examples. A honeycomb is made up of hexagons. The six-sided shapes can fit together perfectly, allowing bees to save space and materials. Another example is the sunflower. Its seeds grow in special patterns. If you count them, you will often find numbers like 21, 34 or 55, where each new number is the sum (总和) of the two before it. This allows the sunflower to grow the most seeds in its center. The first people to count almost certainly used their hands and ten fingers to help, like children today. As a result, our modern counting system is based on tens. Nine Chapters is a famous ancient Chinese mathematics book. It was written about 2,000 years ago. This book is like a practical guidebook. It collects 246 problems on topics like farming, trade, and engineering. This book was a key math textbook in Asia for centuries. 21. Why does the writer give examples of the things that need math in everyday life? A. To show how important math is. B. To show how interesting math is. C. To show how difficult math is in daily life. 22. Why do we count in groups of ten according to the passage? A. Because it is easier to write. B. Because ten is common in life. C. Because people have ten fingers. 23. Which of the following is the right picture of a hexagon? A. B. C. 24. What question is NOT answered in the passage? A. Who wrote “Nine Chapters”? B. Why do the sunflower seeds grow in a special pattern? C. How many problems does “Nine Chapters” collect? 25. Where do you probably find the passage? A. A website about nature. B. A magazine about science. C. A guidebook about culture. B For many foreigners, Chinese characters may seem like a mix of lines without any rules. But to Lena, a 20-year-old girl from Northern Virginia, US, each one tells its own story. In her eyes, the character “kan (侃)” looks like a singing jellyfish, and the traditional form of “wu (無)” lets her think of a sheep. What’s more, the simple form of character “wu (吴)” reminds her of a famous pop star, Michael Jackson. She drew it as if Michael were dancing. She posted it on a Chinese social media platform. To her surprise, many loved it. Then, she tried to draw them as she saw them. Lena noticed that many Chinese characters “stood out as looking like different objects”. Now, thanks to Lena’s drawings, more people are thinking about language, art and cultural exchange. Some people think that Lena seems to understand the beauty of Chinese characters even better than many Chinese people. “It’s because you all are used to seeing the characters,” said Lena. She said that if you change to the opposite, it is also true. For example, she learned from her Chinese friends that the letters “orz” in English together look like a person who gets down on his knee to say sorry. Lena’s story shows that language is more than just words. She also encourages Chinese learners to talk with native speakers. “It’s more fun if you are teaching them your language and they’re teaching you theirs at the same time because then it’s more of a cultural exchange.” 26. What are Chinese characters like for Lena? A. Cute animals. B. Different objects. C. A mix of lines without rules. 27. What does Lena describe “wu” (吴) according to the passage? A. B. C. 28. Why does the writer give the example of “orz”? A. To tell learning a new language is not easy. B. To encourage us to learn more about Chinese characters. C. To show Chinese people can also understand the beauty of English letters. 29. What is Lena like according to the passage? A. She is proud of her invention. B. She gets used to Chinese characters. C. She is good at learning a new language. 30. What can be the best title of the passage? A. Learning a Language in Fun Ways. B. Happy Culture Exchange. C. The Challenges of Learning Chinese. C a On October 11, Natalie Grabow set the record as the oldest woman ever to finish the race in the 2025 Ironman World Championship (铁人三项世锦赛) at the age of 80. In 2005, she took part in a half-Ironman for the first time. That’s pretty impressive for a woman who couldn’t swim until she was in her fifties. Now Ms. Grabow has completed the Ironman 11 times in total. b Scientists at King’s College London have come up with a very unusual toothpaste made from sheep’s wool (羊毛). The keratin (角蛋白) in wool can produce a structure very much like enamel that coats our teeth. The toothpaste can not only clean teeth, but also help protect and repair the enamel in a safer and more natural way. c On October 6, two brothers set a new world record for the heaviest pumpkin ever grown. Ian and Stuart Paton are twins. They’re now 64 years old. The brothers live in the United Kingdom, where the weather can make it hard to grow giant pumpkins. Record-setting pumpkins have often come from places with warm weather all through the summer. d Three Scottish brothers, Jamie, Ewan and Lachlan Maclean have set a new world record for rowing across the Pacific Ocean unsupported in the fastest time ever. The three suffered seasickness and storms, while raising 700,000 pounds for providing people in Africa with clean water. The Macleans said the experience also helped them see life in a new way. 31. When did Natalie start to take part in a half-Ironman race? A. In her fifties. B. In her sixties. C. In her eighties. 32. What makes the toothpaste unusual? A. It makes the teeth very clean. B. It can repair the enamel of teeth. C. It was made by scientists in the college. 33. What can we infer from the passage c? A. The two brothers grew the best pumpkins. B. The twins have been living together for sixty years. C. The weather in the UK is not always warm in summer. 34. Why did the three brothers row across the Pacific Ocean? A. To raise money for charity. B. To fight against the storms. C. To experience a new way of life. 35. What’s the shared theme of the four passages? A. Fun facts. B. Best records. C. Amazing achievements.

Sherpas (夏尔巴人) working on Mount Qomolangma have to go on a four-hour hike across dangerous broken ice to bring rubbish back to the base camp. Now during the climbing season, they have new help from two drones produced by a Chinese company. They can complete the same journey only in six minutes. Drones have been used to transport rubbish from Mount Qomolangma Camp 1, which sits at 6,065 meters above sea level, down to the base camp, about 700 meters below. A drone transports things like ropes up the peak. After that, Sherpas hook (钩) a rubbish-filled bag on the drone. Then the drone takes the rubbish back to the base camp. Between mid-April and mid-May this year, the drones dealt with more than 280 kilograms of rubbish. Using robots can help not only speed up the process but also reduce the danger for the Sherpas who carry rubbish down the mountain. Mount Qomolangma has seen more and more rubbish since the 1990s. The problem is worse at higher campsites, which are also more challenging to clean. Since 2019, the Nepalese (尼泊尔) government and Sherpas have worked together to clean more than 100 tons of waste. In the last ten years, the government has also made rules that require climbers who go above the base camp to carry back at least 8 kilograms of rubbish each, or they will be fined up to $4,000. 56.
