Stray (流浪的) animals may look cute, but life is often dangerous for them. Most of them suffer from hunger, bad weather or illness on the street all year round. It’s hard for them to find enough food and safe places to rest. Luckily, many people, like a 14-year-old student, Zhu Shangyan from Suzhou, are trying to make a difference to these animals.
Lately, she held a charity sale at her school to help stray animals. The event was a big success. It raised 15,000 yuan and collected lots of pet food and medicine. All of these were given to the Suzhou Small Animal Protection Association (SSAPA).
The idea came from her own personal experience. She once visited a special cat café. Many cats there were badly hurt. Some even lost their ears or eyes after accidents. Seeing their poor situation, Zhu wanted to do something to help more stray animals. “But I didn’t know how to start,” said Zhu. “My school’s Service as Action project gave me the chance.”
To get the word out, Zhu and her team made colorful posters and a PowerPoint presentation in their free time. They also visited different classrooms to talk about the idea and ask classmates for support. The meaningful experience taught Zhu a lot. “You can’t learn teamwork and careful planning only from a textbook,” she said. “This is just the beginning. My team and I will keep helping these animals in our spare time.”
The 2024 China Pet Industry White Paper shows that there are about 40 million stray dogs and 50 million stray cats in China. That’s almost 100 million animals in total. If we don’t act quickly, the number of stray animals will grow and put public health and safety at risk.
6. How much money did Zhu Shangyan’s charity sale raise?
A. 15,000 yuan. B. 40,000 yuan. C. 50,000 yuan. D. 100,000 yuan.
7. What gave Zhu the idea to help stray animals?
A. The charity sale. B. The visit to a café.
C. The school project. D. The SSAPA speech.
8. Which of the following best describes Zhu?
A. Active but shy. B. Popular but lazy.
C. Kind and helpful. D. Quiet and lonely.
9. What can we learn from Zhu’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. She plans to stop helping animals. B. She spends free time with her team.
C. Practical experience is also valuable. D. Textbooks are important for teamwork.
10. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To introduce ways to keep pets healthy. B. To describe dangers to stray animals.
C. To share a teenager’s special adventure. D. To call on people to care for stray animals.
【答案】6. A 7. B 8. C 9. C 10. D
【解析】

The Eye of the Sahara is one of the most amazing natural wonders on earth. It’s a special place in the desert of Mauritania, Africa. Looking from the sky, it looks like a huge, bright eye! It is as long as about 438 football fields. The Eye looks like a big round pizza with different coloured parts, which catches the eyes of lots of explorers and tourists every year.
How was it made? Millions of years ago, the ground under the sand started to rise up. Then, wind and rain slowly washed away the soft rocks, leaving the hard ones behind. Over time, these hard rocks made the beautiful circles we see today. From above, you can count about 20 circles. Each one has a different colour that comes from different kinds of rocks. The biggest circle is on the outside, with smaller ones inside. These colors show us how the earth changed little by little for millions of years.
But the Eye of the Sahara is in trouble. The desert is very dry, and sandstorms often blow over it. The sand can make the rocks difficult to see. Also, not many people know about this amazing place because it’s far from big cities. What’s worse, some tourists do not follow the rules and damage the old rocks with careless actions.
What can we do to help? Scientists are studying the Eye to find ways to protect the rocks from sand. Some people suggest building a small road or a simple visitor centre nearby. This way more tourists can come and see the Eye of the Sahara. Most importantly, tourists should follow visiting rules and avoid hurting the rock layers (层).
Let’s take small actions right now to guard this special “eye”, keeping this fantastic natural wonder alive forever.
11. Where is the Eye of the Sahara?
A. In a desert in Africa. B. On a high mountain.
C. Near a big lake. D. In a big city in Asia.
12. Which order correctly shows how the Eye of the Sahara was formed?
a. Wind and rain washed away soft rocks.
b. The ground under the sand rose up.
c. Hard rocks formed beautiful circles.
A. a-b-c. B. b-a-c. C. b-c-a. D. c-b-a.
13. What does the underlined word “damage” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Clean. B. Hide. C. Destroy. D. Draw.
14. What is the most important thing for tourists to do?
A. Follow rules and protect the rock layers.
B. Help build roads around the desert area.
C. Learn to study ways to protect the rocks.
D. Work to set up more new visitor centres.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Ways to Visit Deserts Safely. B. Great Wonders around the World.
C. Huge Rocks in African Deserts. D. The Amazing Eye of the Sahara.
【答案】11. A 12. B 13. C 14. A 15. D
【解析】

When we think about good communication, we usually pay attention to the words we say. But sometimes, how we move our hands can matter just as much. A new study shows that hand gestures (手势) can make a speaker seem clearer, more confident and more believable.
Researchers from North America wanted to learn about how hand gestures influence the way people understand and feel about a speaker. First, they used AI tools to study over 2,000 TED Talks — popular educational videos where speakers give short talks on different ideas. The AI looked at how often speakers used gestures that matched their message. Then, the researchers looked at how popular each talk was — how many people liked or positively marked it online — and found that talks with more of these matching gestures usually got better effect from audiences. Next, more than 1,600 people watched short videos and marked the speakers. Speakers who used strong hand gestures were seen as easier to understand and seemed more skilled and confident, showing that meaningful gestures can make a message much clearer to an audience.
These helpful movements are called “illustrators” — hand gestures that go together with what the speaker is saying. For example, when someone says “the numbers are increasing” and moves their hand higher, or if a person says “we made a small change” and shows a small space between their fingers.
These kinds of gestures give a visual (视觉的) message that makes it easier for the listener to follow the speaker’s ideas. They help to turn difficult thoughts into something clearer and easier to understand.
And the researchers found that when people understand ideas more easily, they are likely to see the speaker as more skilled, confident and believable.
So, if you want to become a better speaker, don’t only think about your words — think about your hands, too!
16. What did researchers first do in the study?
A. They checked online likes of videos. B. They matched different hand gestures.
C. They asked 1,600 people to watch videos. D. They studied over 2,000 TED Talks with AI.
17. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving reasons.
C. By providing examples. D. By asking questions.
18. What does “They” refer to in paragraph 4?
A. Ideas. B. Changes. C. Messages. D. Gestures.
19. What is the text mainly about?
A. Proper hand gestures improve speeches. B. AI helps people to give better speeches.
C. Listeners need to learn body languages. D. How people understand speeches quickly.
20. What does the writer think of hand gestures?
A. They are useless in communication. B. They are more important than words.
C. They are helpful for public speaking. D. They are difficult for people to learn.
【答案】16. D 17. C 18. D 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【导语】本文通过介绍一项相关研究,说明了恰当的手势能够辅助表达、让演讲内容更清晰,使演讲者看起来更自信、可信,告诉我们想要提升演讲效果,除了斟酌语言,配合合适的手势也十分重要。
【16题详解】
第二段指出研究步骤:“First, they used AI tools to study over 2,000 TED Talks”,这直接说明研究人员首先利用人工智能研究了2000多场TED演讲。
【17题详解】
第三段出现标志语句“For example”,后文列举了手势配合话语的具体场景,说明本段主要通过举例的方式展开论述。
【18题详解】
第四段前句指出“These kinds of gestures give a visual message”,本句“They help to turn difficult thoughts into something clearer”承接上文,They指代前文核心主体gestures。
【19题详解】
全文围绕手势展开,开篇点明手势对演讲的重要性,中间介绍研究过程、手势作用,结尾呼吁演讲者善用手势,全文核心为恰当的手势可以提升演讲效果。
【20题详解】
首尾段及全文研究结论均指出,手势能让演讲内容更清晰、演讲者更自信可信,说明作者认为手势对公开演讲很有帮助。

Do you find it difficult to fall asleep at night? ____21____ Research has found that people who read before bed usually sleep better and longer than those who don’t. This simple, low-cost habit can make a noticeable difference to both sleep quality and daily energy levels.
In a study, almost 500 participants (参与者) were asked to read a book in bed for 15 to 30 minutes before trying to sleep. ____22____ Both groups were also asked not to eat or drink anything with caffeine (咖啡因) in the hour before bedtime, to ensure fair results. ____23____ They also felt more rested and less tired in the morning, which made them more focused during the day.
One of the reasons why reading a book could improve sleep is that it’s deeply relaxing. When you read in bed, your heart slows down a little, while your muscles relax. ____24____
For many people, reading a book also means they won’t be looking at a phone or computer screen. This is important, because the light from screens can negatively affect sleep quality.
Of course, this means that reading an e-book on a screen probably won’t have the same positive effect on sleep. Even devices (设备) made just for reading still give off blue light. It is known to make it harder to fall asleep.
____25____ It’s a simple way to turn your nights into restful ones and start your days with more energy.
A. Try picking up a book!
B. Drink a cup of warm milk!
C. It can also make your mind active and creative.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述酷爱园艺的奶奶照料院子里不结果的苹果树,尝试多种办法后终于收获果实,并从中领悟成长道理的故事。
【31题详解】
句意:从医院退休后,她大部分时间都在自家院子里侍弄花草。
根据原文"Through her care, the yard becomes a living work of art that … with every season",后文反复出现yard指代她种花的场地,应选用yard,表示院子,和后文内容形成呼应。 park表示公园,不属于私人照料的场地;house表示房屋,无法用来种植花草;farm表示农场,文中无农场相关描述。
【32题详解】
句意:年复一年,春天她播下种子,欣赏盛放的美丽花朵。
根据句子描述春天花开后的行为,应选用enjoys,表示欣赏、享受,贴合赏花的日常场景。 creates表示创造,花朵自然生长,并非人为创造;designs表示设计,不能用来搭配盛开的鲜花;orders表示订购,语义完全不匹配。
【33题详解】
句意:秋天到来时,她忙着采摘果实、收集落叶。
根据autumn对应的秋季景物,秋天树木会掉落叶片,应选用leaves,表示树叶,契合秋季收集落叶的行为。 trees表示树木,无法被收集;roots表示根部,不会在秋天掉落;grass表示小草,不存在成片掉落收集的说法。
【34题详解】
句意:在她的悉心照料下,这座院子成了鲜活的艺术品,随四季不断变换模样。
根据with every season,四季的花草景物各不相同,应选用changes,表示变化,体现院子景色随季节更迭的状态。 appears表示出现,无法体现持续的四季更替;grows表示生长,主语不能为yard;stays表示保持,和四季景色不同的文意相反。
【35题详解】
句意:然而园艺并非一直轻松,奶奶也会遭遇各类难题。
根据开头转折词However,前文写园艺的美好,后文讲述苹果树常年不结果的麻烦事,应选用difficulties,表示困难,对应后文遇到的种植难题。 surprises表示惊喜,和后文不顺的经历相悖;pleasures表示乐趣,无法匹配转折后的负面内容;secrets表示秘密,文中无相关线索。
【36题详解】
句意:多年来,院子中央的一棵大苹果树从来没有结过果子,奶奶几乎试遍了所有办法。
根据后文"she read gardening books, searched online, and even … and sang to the tree",列举了多种解决办法,说明她尝试了全部可行方式,应选用everything,表示所有事物。 nothing表示没有任何事物,和大量尝试行为矛盾;something表示某一件事,无法对应后文多种方法;anything多用于否定、疑问句,此句为肯定陈述句不适用。
【37题详解】
句意:她阅读园艺书籍、上网查资料,甚至会和果树说话、对着果树唱歌。
根据并列动作"sang to the tree",此处表达和果树交谈,应选用talked,表示交谈,talk to为固定搭配,意为和……说话。 walked表示行走,walk to仅表示走向某地;rode表示骑行,语义无关;used表示使用,无法搭配to the tree构成通顺语义。
【38题详解】
句意:但所有办法都没有奏效,最后奶奶向她的专业朋友Jamie寻求帮助。
根据前文无数尝试全部失败,后文引出求助专家这一收尾举动,存在时间先后递进关系,应选用Finally,表示最后、最终。 Suddenly表示突然,没有铺垫突兀转折;Actually表示实际上,用于修正前文观点;Usually表示通常,描述习惯性行为,和叙事逻辑不符。
【39题详解】
句意:Jamie说:“或许你应该敲打树干底部,以此刺激它的根部。”
根据后半句stimulate its roots,根部位于树木最下方,应选用bottom,表示底部,对应树根所在位置。 top表示顶端,和根部位置相反;middle表示中部,无法刺激地下根系;center表示中心,不用于描述树木部位。
【40题详解】
句意:但她还是决定试一试。
根据前后句逻辑,奶奶觉得这个办法很古怪,却依然愿意付诸行动,应选用decided,表示决定,体现她尝试新方法的选择。 feared表示害怕,和后文每日操作果树的行为矛盾;forgot表示忘记,语义相反;refused表示拒绝,和后文行动相悖。
【41题详解】
句意:一些邻居过来看热闹,都觉得她的行为很荒唐,可奶奶没有放弃,每天都坚持这样做。
根据转折词However,旁人不理解,奶奶依旧坚持操作果树,应选用give up,表示放弃,didn’t give up代表坚持不放弃。 move out表示搬出去;run away表示逃跑;pull together表示齐心协力,均无法匹配坚持照料果树的语境。
【42题详解】
句意:到了第二年春天,怪事发生了,苹果树上开出了花朵。
根据后文"and by autumn, its branches were heavy … fruit",先开花后结果是果树生长规律,应选用grow,表示生长、长出,描述花朵萌发的状态。 fall表示掉落,和春天花开的文意相反;shake表示摇晃,语义无关;return表示返回,不能用来形容花朵生长。
【43题详解】
句意:等到秋天,枝头挂满了沉甸甸的果实。
根据固定搭配be heavy with,意为布满、挂满,应选用with,用来描述枝头承载大量果实的状态。 into表示进入;from表示来自;above表示在……上方,均无法构成该固定搭配。
【44题详解】
句意:如今,每当我们经历艰难的时刻,奶奶都会讲起这棵苹果树的故事。
根据句子逻辑,在任何出现困境的时间节点,奶奶都会分享故事,应选用whenever,表示无论何时,引导时间状语。 wherever表示无论何地,侧重地点;whatever表示无论什么,指代事物;whoever表示无论谁,指代人,均不符合时间语境。
【45题详解】
句意:她说,我们和这棵树一样,只有直面挑战,才能成长得更强大。
根据前文苹果树经历敲打刺激后才结出果实,象征磨难让人变得坚韧强大,应选用stronger,表示更强大的,贴合克服困境后的成长内涵。 taller表示更高的;bigger表示体型更大的;weaker表示更弱小的,和直面挑战的积极寓意相反。
第三节 阅读填空(共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。
Raydis Franco is a Venezuelan teacher who has a special love for Xiangsheng, a traditional comedy show. His love for Chinese ____46____ (begin) in a simple way when he was in high school. At high school, one of his ____47____ (classmate) gave a speech in Chinese. Raydis could not understand a word, ____48____ it deeply attracted him. “It was like music,” he thought.
He was so ____49____ (interest) in Chinese that he came to China and studied at Tianjin University in 2015. While living in Tianjin, he heard from a friend, who invited him ____50____ (enjoy) Xiangsheng. He was amazed at the clever wordplay and quickly fell in love with the art. Therefore, he decided to study it well. Soon he determined to learn ____51____ famous artists. He kept practising every day. He even created pieces by ____52____ (he).
Later Franco joined ____53____ program to introduce Xiangsheng to Spanish speakers. At first, he didn’t know how to create these comedy pieces in Spanish. He tried different ways, which got a surprising effect (效果). All his effort paid off. Now he ____54____ (create) his own style already. He believes that a good laugh can bring people together, and that ____55____ (be) the most beautiful thing about his work.
【答案】46. began
47. classmates
48. but 49. interested
50. to enjoy
51. from 52. himself
53. a 54. has created
55. is
【解析】
【导语】本文是记叙文,讲述了委内瑞拉教师Raydis Franco从高中初次接触中文,到来华求学、爱上相声,自主学习并创作西语相声,向西班牙语人群推广相声的励志故事。
【46题详解】
句意:他对中文的喜爱始于高中一段简单的经历。根据“when he was in high school”可知是描述过去发生的事,用一般过去时,所以用begin的过去式began。
【47题详解】
句意:高中时,他的一位同学用中文做了一场演讲。此处为固定结构“one of+可数名词复数”,表示“……之一”,故用classmate的复数形式classmates。
【48题详解】
句意:Raydis一个字都听不懂,但这段语言深深吸引了他。根据“Raydis could not understand a word... it deeply attracted him.”,空格前后为转折逻辑:听不懂中文却被深深吸引,故填转折连词but。
【49题详解】
句意:他对中文十分感兴趣,于是2015年来华,在天津大学学习。主语是He,此处修饰人,用interest的形容词interested;固定搭配be interested in意为“对……感兴趣”。
【50题详解】
句意:在天津生活期间,他收到了一位朋友的来信,邀请他去听相声。固定搭配invite sb to do sth,意为“邀请某人做某事”,故填不定式to enjoy。
【51题详解】
句意:不久,他下定决心向知名艺术家学习。固定搭配learn from sb意为“向某人学习”,此处“learn... famous artists”表示向著名艺术家学习相声,故填介词from。
【52题详解】
句意:他甚至独立创作作品。固定搭配by oneself意为“独自”,故用he的反身代词himself。
【53题详解】
句意:后来Franco加入了一个项目,向西班牙语使用者介绍相声。此处泛指“一个项目”,program为辅音音素开头,故填不定冠词a。
【54题详解】
句意:如今他已经形成了属于自己的风格。由标志词already可知用现在完成时,结构为“have/has+过去分词”,主语he为第三人称单数,所以助动词用has,create的过去分词为created,故填has created。
【55题详解】
句意:他认为开怀大笑能拉近人与人的距离,这正是他作品最美好的地方。此处陈述客观情况,用一般现在时,that指代前文“a good laugh can bring people together”这件事,所以be动词用单数is。
第四部分 写作(共两节,满分35分)
第一节 情境运用(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
根据所提供的图片,用一个完整的句子提问或应答。
56.
A: ________________________?
B: He has a stomachache. He ate too much cold food.
57.
A: How deep is Lake Baikal?
B: ________________________.
58.
A: What was Lily doing when the rainstorm came yesterday?
B: ________________________. It made her relaxed.
59.
A: How do you greet people in China?
B: ________________________.
60.
A: ________________________?
B: I’ve lived there for 10 years. It’s such a beautiful city.
【答案】56. What’s wrong/ the matter with Teng Fei?
57. It is 1620 meters deep.
58. She was doing/ writing calligraphy.
59. We/I shake hands (to greet people in China) .
60. How long have you lived in Jinan?
【解析】
【56题详解】
根据答语“He has a stomachache. He ate too much cold food.”可知,问句应该是在询问对方的身体状况或发生了什么事。结合图片中男孩痛苦捂着肚子的动作以及名字“Teng Fei”,常用的询问病情的句型为“What’s the matter with...?”或“What’s wrong with...?”。
【57题详解】
问句“How deep is Lake Baikal?”是在询问深度。观察图片2,图中明确标示了深度为“1620米”。因此,需要用一个完整的句子来回答这个深度,主语用It代指Lake Baikal,表述为It is 1620 meters deep.。
【58题详解】
问句“What was Lily doing when the rainstorm came yesterday?”使用了过去进行时,询问过去某一时刻正在发生的动作。观察图片3,Lily正坐在桌前写书法。结合后文“It made her relaxed.”,写书法符合语境。因此,用过去进行时回答她正在写书法,即She was doing/ writing calligraphy.
【59题详解】
问句“How do you greet people in China?”询问的是问候方式。观察图片4,图中两个年轻人正在握手。因此,答语应陈述“我们握手”这一事实,一般现在时即可。
【60题详解】
根据答语“I’ve lived there for 10 years.”可知,答语强调的是居住的时间长度,且使用了现在完成时。因此,问句必须是针对时间段提问的现在完成时疑问句,图片显示地点是济南。疑问词用How long。

Stray (流浪的) animals may look cute, but life is often dangerous for them. Most of them suffer from hunger, bad weather or illness on the street all year round. It’s hard for them to find enough food and safe places to rest. Luckily, many people, like a 14-year-old student, Zhu Shangyan from Suzhou, are trying to make a difference to these animals.
Lately, she held a charity sale at her school to help stray animals. The event was a big success. It raised 15,000 yuan and collected lots of pet food and medicine. All of these were given to the Suzhou Small Animal Protection Association (SSAPA).
The idea came from her own personal experience. She once visited a special cat café. Many cats there were badly hurt. Some even lost their ears or eyes after accidents. Seeing their poor situation, Zhu wanted to do something to help more stray animals. “But I didn’t know how to start,” said Zhu. “My school’s Service as Action project gave me the chance.”
To get the word out, Zhu and her team made colorful posters and a PowerPoint presentation in their free time. They also visited different classrooms to talk about the idea and ask classmates for support. The meaningful experience taught Zhu a lot. “You can’t learn teamwork and careful planning only from a textbook,” she said. “This is just the beginning. My team and I will keep helping these animals in our spare time.”
The 2024 China Pet Industry White Paper shows that there are about 40 million stray dogs and 50 million stray cats in China. That’s almost 100 million animals in total. If we don’t act quickly, the number of stray animals will grow and put public health and safety at risk.
6. How much money did Zhu Shangyan’s charity sale raise?
A. 15,000 yuan. B. 40,000 yuan. C. 50,000 yuan. D. 100,000 yuan.
7. What gave Zhu the idea to help stray animals?
A. The charity sale. B. The visit to a café.
C. The school project. D. The SSAPA speech.
8. Which of the following best describes Zhu?
A. Active but shy. B. Popular but lazy.
C. Kind and helpful. D. Quiet and lonely.
9. What can we learn from Zhu’s words in Paragraph 4?
A. She plans to stop helping animals. B. She spends free time with her team.
C. Practical experience is also valuable. D. Textbooks are important for teamwork.
10. What is the main purpose of the text?
A. To introduce ways to keep pets healthy. B. To describe dangers to stray animals.
C. To share a teenager’s special adventure. D. To call on people to care for stray animals.

The Eye of the Sahara is one of the most amazing natural wonders on earth. It’s a special place in the desert of Mauritania, Africa. Looking from the sky, it looks like a huge, bright eye! It is as long as about 438 football fields. The Eye looks like a big round pizza with different coloured parts, which catches the eyes of lots of explorers and tourists every year.
How was it made? Millions of years ago, the ground under the sand started to rise up. Then, wind and rain slowly washed away the soft rocks, leaving the hard ones behind. Over time, these hard rocks made the beautiful circles we see today. From above, you can count about 20 circles. Each one has a different colour that comes from different kinds of rocks. The biggest circle is on the outside, with smaller ones inside. These colors show us how the earth changed little by little for millions of years.
But the Eye of the Sahara is in trouble. The desert is very dry, and sandstorms often blow over it. The sand can make the rocks difficult to see. Also, not many people know about this amazing place because it’s far from big cities. What’s worse, some tourists do not follow the rules and damage the old rocks with careless actions.
What can we do to help? Scientists are studying the Eye to find ways to protect the rocks from sand. Some people suggest building a small road or a simple visitor centre nearby. This way more tourists can come and see the Eye of the Sahara. Most importantly, tourists should follow visiting rules and avoid hurting the rock layers (层).
Let’s take small actions right now to guard this special “eye”, keeping this fantastic natural wonder alive forever.
11. Where is the Eye of the Sahara?
A. In a desert in Africa. B. On a high mountain.
C. Near a big lake. D. In a big city in Asia.
12. Which order correctly shows how the Eye of the Sahara was formed?
a. Wind and rain washed away soft rocks.
b. The ground under the sand rose up.
c. Hard rocks formed beautiful circles.
A. a-b-c. B. b-a-c. C. b-c-a. D. c-b-a.
13. What does the underlined word “damage” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Clean. B. Hide. C. Destroy. D. Draw.
14. What is the most important thing for tourists to do?
A. Follow rules and protect the rock layers.
B. Help build roads around the desert area.
C. Learn to study ways to protect the rocks.
D. Work to set up more new visitor centres.
15. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Ways to Visit Deserts Safely. B. Great Wonders around the World.
C. Huge Rocks in African Deserts. D. The Amazing Eye of the Sahara.
D
When we think about good communication, we usually pay attention to the words we say. But sometimes, how we move our hands can matter just as much. A new study shows that hand gestures (手势) can make a speaker seem clearer, more confident and more believable.
Researchers from North America wanted to learn about how hand gestures influence the way people understand and feel about a speaker. First, they used AI tools to study over 2,000 TED Talks — popular educational videos where speakers give short talks on different ideas. The AI looked at how often speakers used gestures that matched their message. Then, the researchers looked at how popular each talk was — how many people liked or positively marked it online — and found that talks with more of these matching gestures usually got better effect from audiences. Next, more than 1,600 people watched short videos and marked the speakers. Speakers who used strong hand gestures were seen as easier to understand and seemed more skilled and confident, showing that meaningful gestures can make a message much clearer to an audience.
These helpful movements are called “illustrators” — hand gestures that go together with what the speaker is saying. For example, when someone says “the numbers are increasing” and moves their hand higher, or if a person says “we made a small change” and shows a small space between their fingers.
These kinds of gestures give a visual (视觉的) message that makes it easier for the listener to follow the speaker’s ideas. They help to turn difficult thoughts into something clearer and easier to understand.
And the researchers found that when people understand ideas more easily, they are likely to see the speaker as more skilled, confident and believable.
So, if you want to become a better speaker, don’t only think about your words — think about your hands, too!
16. What did researchers first do in the study?
A. They checked online likes of videos. B. They matched different hand gestures.
C. They asked 1,600 people to watch videos. D. They studied over 2,000 TED Talks with AI.
17. How is paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By listing numbers. B. By giving reasons.
C. By providing examples. D. By asking questions.
18. What does “They” refer to in paragraph 4?
A. Ideas. B. Changes. C. Messages. D. Gestures.
19. What is the text mainly about?
A. Proper hand gestures improve speeches. B. AI helps people to give better speeches.
C. Listeners need to learn body languages. D. How people understand speeches quickly.
20. What does the writer think of hand gestures?
A. They are useless in communication. B. They are more important than words.
C. They are helpful for public speaking. D. They are difficult for people to learn.
第二节 阅读七选五(共5个小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
阅读下面短文,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。
Do you find it difficult to fall asleep at night? ____21____ Research has found that people who read before bed usually sleep better and longer than those who don’t. This simple, low-cost habit can make a noticeable difference to both sleep quality and daily energy levels.
In a study, almost 500 participants (参与者) were asked to read a book in bed for 15 to 30 minutes before trying to sleep. ____22____ Both groups were also asked not to eat or drink anything with caffeine (咖啡因) in the hour before bedtime, to ensure fair results. ____23____ They also felt more rested and less tired in the morning, which made them more focused during the day.
One of the reasons why reading a book could improve sleep is that it’s deeply relaxing. When you read in bed, your heart slows down a little, while your muscles relax. ____24____
For many people, reading a book also means they won’t be looking at a phone or computer screen. This is important, because the light from screens can negatively affect sleep quality.
Of course, this means that reading an e-book on a screen probably won’t have the same positive effect on sleep. Even devices (设备) made just for reading still give off blue light. It is known to make it harder to fall asleep.
____25____ It’s a simple way to turn your nights into restful ones and start your days with more energy.
A. Try picking up a book!
B. Drink a cup of warm milk!
C. It can also make your mind active and creative.
D. At the same time, a good book can calm your mind.
E. After one week, 42% of the readers said they slept better!
F. Another group of participants was told not to read in bed.
G. Therefore, for the best sleep, try reading and choose physical books!
