W: No, Crete was like paradise about 5,000 years ago. A lot of people in other parts of the world admired their life there.

【原文】M: I’m speaking to Fiona Josephs, who’s written a book about a woman called Beatrice Cadbury. Fiona, why did you want to write about her?
W: Well, one day I was reading about a school in the Netherlands. That had been started by a poor married couple and the wife was called Beatrice Cadbury! I discovered she was a member of the famous Cadbury family. I felt puzzled. Why was a rich woman living as a poor person? The answer was so amazing that I decided to write a book.
M: What did you discover?
W: Well, as a child she lived in huge houses and was educated at the best schools. She had a very comfortable life. But Beatrice grew up wanting to make society a better place. She married a man from the Netherlands. While she was in the Netherlands, she decided she didn’t want to receive any more money from the Cadbury business. She told her brother, who was running the company, that he should give her share of the money to the factory workers instead.
M: And then what happened?

M: No, I jumped up to catch the ball and then all of a sudden I fell and landed heavily on the ground.
W: That sounds like a lot of pain. Did you go to the hospital?
M: I did. I realized it was quite serious as soon as I stood up because I found I couldn’t walk. So my teammates carried me off the court and my coach called a taxi and took me to the doctor.
W: What did the doctor say?
M: My bones were damaged, so he just told me to take a lot of rest and stop my training for a while.
W: Well, it seems like you’re recovering well.
M: Yeah, I can walk normally now. It’s been almost a month since it happened.
W: How long will it be until you can start training again?
M: The doctor said it could take about three months for an injury like this to fully recover.
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)
语篇解读:这是一篇说明文,介绍了中国文房四宝——笔、墨、纸、砚的历史渊源、制作工艺与文化内涵,展现了其在中国书法绘画艺术中的核心地位及对世界的影响。
21.D【解析】细节理解题。根据Ink部分中“The act of grinding symbolizes patience and dedication highly valued in Chinese culture.”可知,研磨墨水之所以在中国文化中有意义,是因为它象征着耐心和奉献这两种备受推崇的品质。A项“因为这是一个困难的过程”文中未提;B项“因为它能产生各种颜色的墨水”与题干“有意义”无关;C项“因为它需要高质量的砚台”是事实但非原因。由此可知,故选D项。
22.C【解析】细节理解题。根据Paper部分中“‘Xuan Paper’, the best paper for writing, is made in Xuanzhou, Anhui Province.”可知,宣纸是最好的书写用纸。A项“毛笔是由树皮制成的”与原文“made from animal hair”相悖;B项“墨只在徽州生产”与原文“most famously produced in Huizhou”不符,最著名不等于唯一;D项“砚台最初是雕刻品”与原文“originally simple pottery tools”相悖。由此可知,故选C项。
23.D【解析】推理判断题。通读全文,根据标题“Four Treasures of the Study(文房四宝)”以及最后一段“With these treasures, Chinese people created unique styles of calligraphy and painting, establishing a distinctive expression system. Today, they continue to inspire artists worldwide, bridging tradition and modernity.” 可知,全文介绍中国传统文化中的文房四宝及其艺术价值,属于文化类内容,文章选自“文化”专栏。A项“科技”、B项“旅游”、C项“生活方式”均与文章主题不符。由此可知,故选D项。
语篇解读:这是一篇说明文,指出今年蝴蝶等昆虫数量急剧下降,分析了长期因素(集约化农业、栖息地破坏、气候变化)和短期因素(湿冷春季),并呼吁公众参与公民科学项目以收集数据。
24.A【解析】细节理解题。根据第一段中“Species that are usually common are in many places down to the point of having almost disappeared”可知,今年常见的蝴蝶种类在许多地方几乎消失,数量出现了急剧下降。B项“物种丰富多样”与原文相悖;C项“在很多地方都能找到”与原文“near-absence”相悖;D项“迁徙习性改变”文中未提。由此可知,故选A项。
25.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第二段中Dave Goulson提供的“insect populations compared with a century ago are 90% to 95% down”这一数据可知,作者引用他的话是为了证明昆虫数量长期下降的趋势,而非仅仅因为今年春天的潮湿天气。A项“为农业问题提供解决方案”、B项“展示一个世纪前的昆虫数量”、C项“解释凉爽潮湿春季的影响”均与引用目的不符。由此可知,故选D项。
26.A【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段中“many of our crop plants...depend on wild insects to pollinate them”以及“Insects are also the food source of many birds”可知,这里讨论的是昆虫减少带来的实际后果,因此“implications”意为“影响”。B项“优势”、C项“特征”、D项“机会”均不符合语境。由此可知,故选A项。
27.C【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“One thing that we can all do to help is get out and gather more information. This weekend the annual Big Butterfly Count gets under way, helping people survey their local area as part of a necessary national counting exercise — a fantastic example of citizen science in action. ”可知,作者建议读者参与到公民科学活动中,通过蝴蝶计数等项目为研究提供数据。A项“欣赏蝴蝶的美”、B项“等待短期恢复”、D项“专业研究昆虫减少”均与原文建议不符。由此可知,故选C项。
语篇解读:这是一篇新闻报道,报道了苹果CEO蒂姆·库克关于技术与传统文化关系的观点,他认为技术能扩大传统文化的受众,并强调人工智能应是人类的补充而非替代。
28.D【解析】推理判断题。第一段中库克说“Our history and culture is very important...technology’s role in expanding the audience for traditional culture”,这是他针对科技与文化关系所表达的核心论点。A项“强调商业收益”文中未提;B项“提供虚假数据”与原文不符;C项“对比传统与创新”并非其主要目的。由此可知,故选D项。
29.B【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段中“with the video we’re able to capture that for the world. It enables us to connect with our history...with many more people”可知,库克认为视频技术能够让更多人体验到原本只有少数人能现场观看的文化表演,即实现文化体验的全球化传播。A项“增强戏剧表演效果”、C项“取代现场参与”、D项“简化艺术创作”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选B项。
30.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段中“There’s so much in the past that can be learned from and used to make our lives better in the present moment”可知,库克认为五千年的文化遗产可以为当下提供有益的借鉴,从而改善人们的生活。A项“科技必须复刻历史模式”过于绝对;B项“现代社会忽视了祖先的智慧”文中未提;D项“文化保护阻碍科技进步”与库克观点相反。由此可知,故选C项。
31.B【解析】细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It does not and it should not replace human being. It’s a complement rather than a replacement.”可知,库克坚信人工智能的作用是增强人类能力,而非取代人类。A项“人类创造力过时”、C项“自动化提高效率”、D项“伦理阻碍AI贡献”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选B项。
语篇解读:这是一篇说明文,通过人物故事和研究发现,介绍了野生动物直播摄像头如何为远离自然的人们提供情感慰藉,同时服务于科研和保护工作,并指出其对缓解压力、改善睡眠的积极作用。
32.D【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段“In 2012, retired consultant Dianne Hoffman found solace in watching ospreys Harriet and Ozzie nest in Montana...‘Watching the live streams helped me rejoin the world’”可知,Hoffman通过观看鱼鹰直播来应对悲伤。A项“收养一匹马”、B项“成为野生动物研究员”、C项“去蒙大拿旅行”均与原文不符。由此可知,故选D项。
33.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第四段“When owner SuzAnne Miller tried turning it off, viewers protested. She added more cameras and later understood their value when illness kept her indoors. Viewers now interact with the farm...Many elderly subscribers consider the farm their favorite place”可知,观众与农场建立了情感联系,因此不愿摄像头关闭。A项“研究鱼鹰行为”并非主要原因;B项“已付费订阅”文中未提;D项“监控鸟类安全”是附加功能。由此可知,故选C项。
34.B【解析】细节理解题。根据第六段“A research shows nature streams reduce stress and improve mood. A new study found elderly care home residents slept better after watching nature cams.”可知,自然直播能减轻压力、改善情绪和睡眠质量。A项“让观众保护野生动物”文中未提;C项“增加公众购买相机的兴趣”无依据;D项“帮助科学家发现新物种”文中未提及。由此可知,故选B项。
35.D【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文,文章围绕自然直播流(Nature live streams)给人们带来的简单快乐展开,包括情感慰藉、健康益处等。A项“野生动物相机历史”偏离主题;B项“退休女士与鱼鹰的故事”只是例子之一;C项“科学研究工具”过于片面。D项“生命直播:自然摄像头的简单快乐”准确概括了文章主旨。由此可知,故选D项。
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
语篇解读:本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了意大利科莫湖推出的“罐装空气”纪念品,同时探讨了这类创意纪念品的市场现象及背后的旅游文化。
36.D【解析】细节理解题。前句提到游客常购买冰箱贴、钥匙链等纪念品,后句引出科莫湖的“罐装空气” 这一特殊纪念品。D项”这些小物件能让他们想起自己的假期。”既承接前句对传统纪念品的描述,又通过“reminders”与后句”纪念品“形成逻辑衔接,符合语境。故选D项。
37.F【解析】推理判断题。本段介绍罐装空气的销售信息,前句提及价格,后句描述罐子的外观和标签设计。F项“这些罐子在产品网站上被营销为‘奢华’纪念品”既呼应前句的“selling”,又通过“luxurious”与后句的精致标签设计形成对应,衔接紧密。故选F项。
38.B【解析】推理判断题。前句介绍科莫湖的地理位置,后句提到众多名人在此拥有度假屋且多部电影在此取景。B 项 “它已成为热门度假目的地” 既总结科莫湖的旅游地位,又为后句的名人与电影取景现象提供背景支撑,符合段落逻辑。故选B项。
39.G【解析】推理判断题。后文提到“数十年来商人一直销售类似产品(如罐装氧气)”,强调罐装空气并非新鲜事物。G项“不过,这并非罐装空气首次被推销给游客”以转折词“though”引出下文对历史案例的说明,起到过渡作用。故选G项。
40.E【解析】推理判断题。前句提到市长更希望游客购买丝绸围巾等传统纪念品,后句强调“也要带走美好回忆”。E项“如果有人想带点空气回家,那也完全没问题”通过让步语气衔接市长的态度,既体现对新纪念品的包容,又与后句形成“物质纪念”与“记忆纪念”的对比。故选E项。

One day, I suddenly heard that John was going to study in another school. I felt a mix of emotions. But after considering, I thought I needed to apologize for my actions and seek for his forgiveness. One day I got up the courage to walk up to him, saying “John, I want to apologize for what I did. I was wrong, and I’m truly sorry”. “I appreciate your apology,” he said calmly. “But you should know that I had already forgiven you a long time ago. We were both young and made mistakes.”
I was so happy that tears of joy welled up in my eyes. His words washed over me like a wave of relief. I realized that holding onto guilt and anger had only hindered my own growth. It was time to let go of the past and rebuild our friendship. From that day forward, John and I became closer than ever before.

A
Four Treasures of the Study
Brushes
The brush, made from animal hair, is the tool bringing life to the paper. From delicate lines to bold brushstrokes, the brush is the medium through which the artist’s emotions and techniques flow onto the paper, creating elegant works of art. The most famous brush, the “Huzhou Brush”, is produced in Huzhou, Zhejiang Province.
Ink
Traditional Chinese ink comes in solid sticks. To produce liquid ink, one grinds(磨)the inkstick against an inkstone with water. The act of grinding symbolizes patience and dedication highly valued in Chinese culture. High-quality ink, originally black but now available in various colors, is most famously produced in Huizhou, Anhui Province.
Paper
Chinese paper, especially the ancient rice paper, made from sandalwood bark and rice straw, absorbs ink smoothly without bleeding. The paper serves as a canvas for not only artistic efforts but also documentation, making it a vital component in the preservation of history and culture. “Xuan Paper”, the best paper for writing, is made in Xuanzhou, Anhui Province.
Inkstones
Inkstones, used for grinding ink, were originally simple pottery tools. Later, they became artistic objects carved from stone that reflect the taste and status of their owners. The choice of inkstone is crucial as it can affect the quality and texture of the ink, further enhancing the artistic expression in calligraphy and painting. The most famous inkstone, “Duan Inkstone”, is produced in Zhaoqing, Guangdong Province.
With these treasures, Chinese people created unique styles of calligraphy and painting, establishing a distinctive expression system. Today, they continue to inspire artists worldwide, bridging tradition and modernity.
21.Why is grinding ink considered meaningful in Chinese culture?
A.Because it is a difficult process.
B.Because it produces ink in various colors.
C.Because it requires a high-quality inkstone.
D.Because it reflects valued morals in China.
22.What can we learn about the Four Treasures of the Study?
A.The brush is made from bark.
B.Ink is only produced in Huizhou.
C.“Xuan Paper” is the best paper for writing.
D.Inkstones were originally carved objects.
23.Which column in a paper might the passage come from?
A.Technology. B.Travel. C.Lifestyle. D.Culture.
B
Anyone with even a passing interest in the natural world will have noticed a dramatic phenomenon this year: a lack of insects. Perhaps most noticeable is the near-absence of butterflies. Species that are usually common are in many places down to the point of having almost disappeared.
There are several probable reasons for this sudden reduction compared with typical summers. The weather has not helped, with a cool and wet spring across much of the country affecting insect numbers. But even with that factored in, this year’s sudden drop comes after many years of going down little by little. Dave Goulson, one of the UK’s leading entomologists (昆虫学家), says that insect populations compared with a century ago are 90% to 95% down. That was not caused by one wet spring: it is the result of a combination of factors that include the rise of ever more intensive farming, destruction of animals’ living environment and the impacts of climate breakdown.
Aside from the disheartening silence and stillness of gardens, woods and grasslands, there are more practical implications. For example, many of our crop plants-including tomatoes, apples and strawberries-depend on wild insects to pollinate (授粉) them. Insects are also the food source of many birds that are also in decrease.
The present position will hopefully last for a short time but is nonetheless a wake-up call about the degree of losses that have taken place in recent decades. One thing that we can all do to help is to get out and gather more information. This weekend the annual Big Butterfly Count gets under way, helping people survey their local area as part of a necessary national counting exercise — a fantastic example of citizen science in action. Nature is not just a nice thing to have: it is important for our national health, wealth and safety. Our butterflies and other insects are telling us something rather important.
24.What can we learn about this year’s butterflies?
A.Their numbers suffer a sharp drop.
B.Their species are rich and varied.
C.They can be found in many places.
D.Their migration habits have changed.
25.Why is Dave Goulson mentioned in paragraph 2?
A.To suggest solutions to farming issues.
B.To show insect numbers a century ago.
C.To explain the impact of the cool wet spring.
D.To offer evidence for a long-term phenomenon.
26.What does the underlined word “implications” in paragraph 3 mean?
A.Effects. B.Advantages. C.Features. D.Opportunities.
27.What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph?
A.Appreciate butterflies’ beauty. B.Wait for short-term recovery.
C.Join in citizen science activities. D.Study insect losses professionally.

“Our history and culture is very important to understanding the present moment and where we’re heading in the future.” said Apple CEO Tim Cook on Monday. Cook highlighted technology’s role in expanding the audience for traditional culture after watching a Kunqu Opera performance, saying, “What technology does and what our products do is help expand the audience for traditional culture.”
The event featured a performance of a classic excerpt (节选) from the 400-year-old Peony Pavilion by the Northern Kunqu Opera Theatre. Model-actress and director Chang Chunxiao presented her iPhone-shot short documentary, The People in the Time Tunnel, which reveals behind-the-scenes stories of the theater’s new interpretation of the opera. Cook remarked on the power of video to share such cultural experiences globally: “Only a few of us could fit in the theater and enjoy it, but with the video we’re able to capture that for the world. It enables us to connect with our history in a much deeper way and with many more people.”
Cook expressed his personal admiration for Chinese calligraphy, calling it “one of the most beautiful art forms in the world,” and stressed the importance of its preservation. He underlined the broader significance of safeguarding history and culture in a nation with 5,000 years of heritage, noting that “There’s so much in the past that can be learned from and used to make our lives better in the present moment.”
Addressing the current trend of artificial intelligence, Cook expressed his view on technology’s purpose: enriching lives, enhancing productivity, and boosting creativity. He firmly asserted technology’s supplementary role: “But it does not and it should not replace human being. It’s a complement rather than a replacement.”
28.What is the main function of Cook’s words in Paragraph 1?
A.Highlight commercial gains. B.Provide false statistics.
C.Contrast tradition with innovation. D.Present Cook’s major argument.
29.What key role does Cook see for video technology?
A.Enhancing theatrical performances. B.Globalizing cultural experiences.
C.Replacing physical attendance. D.Simplifying artistic creation.
30.What is implied by Cook’s reference to China’s 5,000-year heritage?
A.Technology must reproduce historical models to ensure progress.
B.Modern societies neglect ancestral wisdom in solving current issues.
C.Historical heritage provides applicable insights for present improvement.
D.Cultural preservation holds back technological advancement.
31.What is Cook’s core belief regarding artificial intelligence?
A.Human creativity becoming outdated.
B.Enhancing, not replacing humanity.
C.Automating tasks for efficiency.
D.Ethics blocking AI contributions.
D
For people living far from nature, live cameras (cams) monitoring wildlife offer comfort and connection.
In 2012, retired consultant Dianne Hoffman found solace in watching ospreys (鱼鹰) Harriet and Ozzie nest in Montana. Though their eggs never hatched, Hoffman observed them daily from Pennsylvania while coping with family losses. “Watching the live streams helped me rejoin the world,” said Hoffman, now 81. Even after Ozzie died in 2014, she continues to watch the nest for an hour daily, calling it “the best gift from the Internet”.
Nature live streams have grown popular over the past 20 years. Cheap cameras and Internet access allow millions to watch moose migrations in Sweden or salmon swimming in Norway. A study by Mary Ann Liebert Inc found such streams improve well-being for those unable to experience nature firsthand.
The osprey camera at Montana’s Dunrovin Ranch started in 2012. When owner SuzAnne Miller tried turning it off, viewers protested. She added more cameras and later understood their value when illness kept her indoors. Viewers now interact with the farm-reminding staff about open gates or sharing emotional moments like a horse’s euthanasia. Many elderly subscribers consider the farm their favorite place, with some requesting their ashes bescattered there.
These streams also aid research and conservation. Cameras in US national parks and Africa help scientists study animal behavior. In the UK, a trainee spotted the first seal pup born at a protected beach via live feed. For ospreys, cameras act as security systems to protect nests.
A research shows nature streams reduce stress and improve mood. A new study found elderly care home residents slept better after watching nature cams. “It satisfies human curiosity and our need to connect with nature,” said researcher Rebecca Mauldin. From lonely seniors to wildlife lovers, these cameras bring the natural world closer to all.
32.What did Dianne Hoffman do to deal with her sadness?
A.Adopting a horse.
B.Becoming a wildlife researcher.
C.Traveling to Montana.
D.Watching live streams about ospreys.
33.Why did viewers ask SuzAnne Miller not to turn off the camera?
A.They wanted to study osprey behavior.
B.They had already paid for the subscriptions.
C.They felt emotionally connected to the farm.
D.They needed to monitor the safety of the birds.
34.According to the research, how do nature live streams benefit people?
A.They allow viewers to protect wildlife.
B.They improve relaxation and sleep quality.
C.They increase public interest in buying cameras.
D.They help scientists discover new animal species.
35.Which is the best title for the article?
A.The History of Wildlife Cameras
B.A Retired Woman’s Story with Ospreys
C.Nature Cams: Tools for Scientific Research
D.Life Streams: The Simple Joy of Nature Cams

阅读下面短文,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。
Travelers often fill their suitcases with souvenirs like refrigerator magnets, keychains and postcards. 36 Now, those visiting the Italian lakeside town of Como have another, slightly less conventional item to bring home: a sealed can of Lake Como air.
ItalyComunica, a communications company, is selling 13.5-ounce cans of “pure air from the most beautiful lake in the world” for roughly $11 (€9.90) each. 37 They feature a dark blue label with an illustration of a boat cruising through the water. “Open it whenever you need a moment of escape, tranquility, or simply beauty,” instructs the website. “Only those who visit Lake Como can want to buy our souvenir; memories are not bought but lived.”
Sitting at the base of the Alps, Lake Como is a large body of water in Italy’s northern Lombardy region. 38 Many celebrities own second homes in the surrounding area, and numerous movies have been filmed there.
39 Clever businesspeople have been selling similar products for decades. In mountain towns and other high-elevation destinations, “oxygen in a can” is sometimes marketed as an antidote (缓解物) to altitude sickness, despite little scientific evidence to support that claim. Any benefits from canned air are likely due to the placebo (安慰剂) effect, experts say.
Alessandro Rapinese, the mayor of Como, says that he would rather vacationers bought silk scarves, which the region is known for, or other souvenirs. However, he adds: “ 40 Just make sure to take beautiful memories of this area as well.”
A.It’s the best souvenir option.
B.It has become a popular vacation destination.
C.Souvenirs have a long and fascinating history.
D.These little items serve as reminders of their vacation.
E.If someone wants to take some air home, that’s perfectly fine.
F.The cans are marketed as “luxurious” souvenirs on the product website.
G.This is not the first time canned air has been marketed to tourists, though.

67.阅读下面材料,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
That day, the weather was very hot, and I was very nervous, unable to keep still and think calmly. My friend John and I were discussing a problem. Everything was going well. However, in the middle of our discussion happened an unexpected incident — he made ink from his pen on my new notebook by accident. I was very angry and I said to him, “Why did you do that?” As I spoke, I deliberately spilled the ink from my pen onto his book. “You, you did it on purpose,” he said loudly. At that moment, he was very angry. His face was red with anger, his eyebrows were almost raised, his forehead was wrinkled (皱起) more and more tight, and his mouth was wide open. Suddenly, he pushed my things on the table to the floor. When I saw him do this, I was so annoyed with him that I pushed his to the floor, and angrily said to him, “We are no longer friends!” “Well, it’s you who break off the friendship!” The friend shouted like a lion. I immediately took my things and left.
From that day on, every time I met him, I would take another way to avoid him. Though he seemed to want to say something, I didn’t wait for him to say anything, and ran away like an arrow.
Since that incident, I had been reflecting (反思) on myself, feeling that I had done something wrong, but I didn’t have enough courage to apologize to him. I knew that he didn’t mean to make ink from his pen on the book that time, but I exactly did. I shouldn’t have made his book wet in ink by design. I hated myself all the time. I was angry with myself.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
One day, I suddenly heard that John was going to study in another school.
