Camp rules are in place to keep the camp community safe and camp operations running smoothly throughout their stay. 1．Keep Your Personal Space Clean Since your child will be in close quarters with many other campers, it’s important that they understand the necessity of keeping their sleeping and living areas organized. Go over ways for your child to stay organized and tidy before they leave for camp. When packing, make sure to provide a laundry bag to keep clean and dirty clothing separate. Utilize under bed space or put clothes on your shelves or cubbies rather than living out of your suitcase or camp trunk. It also helps to not over pack. Follow packing list guidelines closely so your child can find what they need without having to dig through piles of clothing that were not recommended. This also helps you child know what they have in their luggage so they pull out the sweatshirt when it gets cold, instead of thinking there wasn’t one in their bag. Remind your child of their camp account so they can purchase items from the camp store if necessary. 2．Valuables at Camp As a best practice, we recommend leaving all valuables at home. Even if your child has a bracelet or necklace that they never take off, there is still the chance that it could be lost while swimming or participating in camp activities. If you are thinking about bringing an expensive item of clothing, be prepared for it to get lost or damaged. You may be better off buying a new, less expensive version. To be on the safe side, don’t let your child bring anything irreplaceable or emotionally valuable to camp. 3．Play Nice Name calling, fighting, bullying, and arguing are strictly prohibited at summer camp. Camp is a place to make friends, so aggressive behavior is not tolerated. Remind your child that they don’t have to be everybody’s best friend, but they do have to be friendly to everyone. Encourage your child to go into camp with the mindset of making a few new friends, and chances are they will leave camp having made more than a few. 4．Have Fun and Try New Things At the end of the day, summer camp is about getting out of your comfort zone, trying new things, and having a blast. Before your child leaves for camp, congratulate them for being brave enough to try sleepaway camp in the first place. Let them know that they’ve already won just by trying, and the fun part is just about to begin. Remind them again that summer camp rules exist only to improve the overall camp experience and to create a community of fun. 36. What advice does the article give if a camper forgets an essential item? A. Borrow from friends with permission. B. Ask camp staff to mail items from home. C. Purchase replacements from the camp store. D. Go without the item to learn responsibility. 37. What does the article imply about bringing valuables to summer camp? A. It is completely forbidden under all circumstances. B. It is acceptable if the child promises to take good care of them. C. It is not recommended because of the risk of loss or damage. D. It is only allowed for expensive clothing items. 38. Which of the following behaviors is advocated by the summer camp? A. Forming exclusive groups with similar interests. B. Engaging in at guments to resolve disagreements. C. Avoiding participating in adventurous activities. D. Keeping personal camping supplies in order. 39. What does the article suggest about trying new things at camp? A. It is optional but highly encouraged for personal growth. B. The main goal of camp is to challenge and achieve success. C. Stepping out of one’s comfort zone is part of the experience. D. Only experienced campers should try challenging activities. 40. What is the purpose of clarifying the rules of summer camp? A. To ensure safety and maintain a well-organized camp environment. B. To help children adapt quickly and enjoy their camp experience fully. C. To restrict campers’ freedom and enforce strict discipline at all times. D. To prepare parents for potential issues and reduce their concerns. B It was a September afternoon. The air was thick and warm, and by the time my dad and I reached the cove, which we called a swimming palace, my clothes were damp and itchy on my skin. Dad swam nearby a cove, diving into a splash of front crawl, heading out toward the edge of our narrow bay. Overwhelmed, suddenly, with envy, I did what I hadn’t done in years: I held my breath and pulled my own head underwater. There, suspended beneath the glimmering surface, I remembered it all. My love of diving, swimming, rivers and lakes. I felt the cold ocean’s press on my cheeks and my eyelids, and knew what it was like again: to be free and fully present in my own skin. Though I’ve always loved the water, I had spent seven years prior to that day staying away from moments like this one. I was afraid. Struggling for a long time with chronic acne (粉刺) and unhelpful treatments, and the pressures of teenage girls’ appearance, I had become entirely reliant on my makeup. I needed total control over how I looked, and going swimming meant washing this control away. My bare face and natural appearance were not something I identified with. I hated it, deeply, though I wished more than anything that I didn’t. But those 10 minutes of contentment I floated within — the muffled quiet of the underwater world — were fuel for the next chapter of my life. This would be my yardstick. Suddenly, it didn’t matter how I did it. Whether through medication or mental attitude, I would find a way to have the kind of life that allowed me to dive into the water whenever it called. That day was the beginning of a slow but determined journey back to my own body — a slow unlearning of my deep self-consciousness. Life didn’t change in a heartbeat: I returned to the shore with all the same fears, but I clothed myself in a new determination to change things. I felt the tide turn. Looking back on this moment again today, it seems strange to think that going bare-faced on an empty beach was such a challenge. But this is exactly the perspective I had once dreamed of reaching. I do my best never to take for granted this freedom I have found. To pay attention, each time I sink under the surface of the water, embracing that wave of fear and joy and liberation. 41. The author avoided swimming for seven years because _________. A. she had to receive treatments. B. she had no access to the cove. C. she felt insecure without makeup. D. she hated to reapply her makeup. 42. How did the author feel after she returned from the diving? A. Proud. B. Joyful. C. Hesitant. D. Resolved. 43. What does the author emphasize about her experience in the water? A. It reminded her of her acne struggles. B. It made her feel more self-conscious. C. It helped her escape her fears. D. It made makeup important. 44. What can we learn from this passage? A. You can’t judge a book by its cover. B. Self-acceptance is the greatest gift. C. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. D. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart. 45. Where is this passage most likely from? A. An article on swimming benefits. B. A magazine about beauty tips. C. A memoir about body image. D. A travel guide on beaches. C Picture this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $ 3.50 and the large is $ 5.50. It’s a tough decision: The small size may not last you through the whole movie, but $ 5.50 for some sugary drink seems ridiculous. But there’s a third option, a medium soda for $ 5.25. Medium may be the perfect amount of soda for you, but the large is only a quarter more. If you’re like most people, you end up buying the large (and taking a bathroom break midshow). If you’re wondering who would buy the medium soda, the answer is almost no one. In fact, there’s a good chance the marketing department purposely priced the medium soda as a decoy (诱饵), making you more likely to buy the large soda rather than the small. I have written about this peculiarity in human nature before with my friend Dan Ariely, who studied this phenomenon extensively after noticing pricing for subscriptions (订阅) to The Economist. The digital subscription was $ 59, the print subscription was $ 125, and the print plus digital subscription was also $ 125. No one in their right mind would buy the print subscription when you could get digital as well for the same price, so why was it even an option? Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two “real” choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. But the addition of the bad option made people much more likely to choose the more expensive print plus digital option. Brain scientists call this effect “asymmetric dominance” and it means that people gravitate toward the choice nearest a clearly inferior option. Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember. Lucky for consumers, almost no one in the business community understands it. The decoy effect works because of the way our brains assign value when making choices. Value is almost never absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to our other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation changes. 46. Why does the author ask us to imagine buying food in the movie theater? A. To show how popular snacks are among movie fans. B. To show how hard it can be to choose a drink there. C. To illustrate the increasing variety of snacks there. D. To illustrate people’s peculiar shopping behavior. 47. Why is the medium soda priced the way it is? A. To make customers believe they are getting a bargain. B. To ensure customers drink the right amount of soda. C. To show the price matches the amount. D. To attract more customers to buy it. 48. What do we learn from Dan Ariely’s experiment? A. More readers choose the digital over the print edition. B. The Economist’s print edition turns out to sell the best. C. The Economist’s promotional strategy works. D. Lower-priced goods attract more customers. 49. For what purpose is “the bad option” in Paragraph 3 added? A. To provide customers with a greater variety of goods. B. To trap customers into buying the more pricey item. C. To cater to the peculiar needs of some customers. D. To help customers to make more rational choices. 50. How do we assess the value of a commodity, according to the passage? A. By comparing it with other choices. B. By taking its quality into account. C. By examining its value equation. D. By considering its usefulness. D Expressions linking space to time are a common part of our day-to-day lives. You might say the morning “flew by” or that school exams are “drawing near”. Right now, you might say summer is “just around the corner”. Unlike the physical space we inhabit, time cannot be seen or touched. How, then, did humans come to talk so effortlessly about such an abstract concept? The key lies in the way we project our understanding of space to conceptualize time. Explorations of how humans conceptualize time as space are tied closely to the study of language and cognition (认知). Conceptual Metaphor Theory proposes that our conception of the world is governed by metaphors (隐喻), many of which are anchored in the three dimensions of physical space. Metaphors of time can be divided into “ego-moving” and “time-moving” metaphors, indicating the different ways of perceiving the relationship between space and time. In “ego-moving” metaphors, a person moves toward a fixed point in time, as in “we’re getting close to summer”. In “time-moving” metaphors, time moves toward the individual, as in “summer is nearly here”. When analyzing the spatial understanding of time, one particularly interesting phenomenon stands out: verbs of movement to describe the passage of time. Verbs like “progress”, “approach” or even “pass” are common examples. The use of particular verbs to describe the passage of time may reflect our subjective perception of it. For example, when we say “time flies”, we know it refers to a pleasant situation. In contrast, when we are bored or waiting for something, we might say “time drags” to express boredom and slowness. In a movie, for example, a viewer may feel that time “flies” or “drags”, depending on how interested they are in the story, or how well the film is made. Our choice of verbs not only communicates an objective fact, but also our emotional and psychological state: whether an event is “long” or “short” depends on how we feel about it. This demonstrates the interconnected nature of cognition, emotion and language in our perception of the passage of time. 51. According to the text, what can metaphors be considered to be? A. A combination of language and culture. B. A great help in understanding language. C. A link between theory in physics and human cognition. D. A powerful influence on how we understand the world. 52. Which of the following is an example of an “ego-moving” metaphor? A. Exams are soon coming up. B. We are approaching the holidays. C. Time flies when you’re having fun. D. Mother’s Day is just around the corner. 53. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The use of particular verbs. B. The passage of time. C. A particular verb. D. A period of time. 54. What can we infer from the passage about viewers’ perception of time when they are watching a movie? A. Filmgoers always feel that time flies when watching a movie. B. It depends on the interconnected nature of cognition. C. It is related to their interest and the film’s quality. D. Viewers don’t care about how long a movie lasts. 55. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To give a summary of movement verbs. B. To describe what time in motion is like. C. To show the richness of human thought. D. To introduce the basic concept of metaphors. 第Ⅱ卷（共35分） 注意事项： 1．用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2．本卷共6小题，共35分。 第四部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Every single person has a story to share, and a growing number of older Australians are choosing to record their life memories as short films. While writing memoirs can take years, creating a life story film takes just a few hours — and the resulting films are far more vivid than writing or looking through photo albums. Television producer and director Danika Armytage, known for producing shows like The Block, River Cottage Australia, Travel Guides, and The Living Room, has launched a company called Big Stories Little Films, which specialises in creating life legacy films. Since its inception in 2024, Danika has been busy bringing people’s stories to life in film. “Our films tell life stories, capture family ancestry, and allow wisdom to be passed between generations,” Danika explains. “They are often a gift between family members — either ordered as a birthday present from the kids, or as a film gifted from the grandparents to their grandkids — it’s like a film heirloom (传家宝) to pass between generations.” Danika was inspired to start the company after filming an interview with her own grandmother, Halimah, before she passed away. “The film became priceless to my family, especially after Granny died. Now my own children can meet their great-grandmother and feel connected to our family history, even though they never met her in person. Memories fade, but films are a time capsule that safeguards stories, keeping them as vivid as if you’re sitting at the kitchen bench hearing them directly from your grandparent.” “One of my favourite films was about brother and sister Raymond and Jennice Kersh, now in their 80s, who ran the iconic Sydney restaurant Edna’s Table and were pioneers in serving indigenous ingredients in the Sydney restaurant scene. Their story is inspiring, and their recollections of growing up in Pyrmont in the 1940s, a suburb where everyone was poor but no one was lonel’ are a perfect example of how these films capture living history.” These life legacy films have become more than just memory carriers — they bridge time, letting younger generations touch the past through elders’ voices and smiles. For families, they’re irreplaceable heirlooms; for society, they’re fragments of living history. As more older Australians embrace this way, countless unique stories are being saved from fading, turning personal moments into lasting family and cultural treasures. 56.

A. was reached B. has been reached C. will reach D. will have reached 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：尽管双方进行了多轮会谈，但到目前为止仍未达成任何协议，这还是第一次。固定句型“This/It is the first time that...”中，that引导的从句谓语动词需使用现在完成时。同时，从句主语agreement“协议”与动词reach“达成”之间为逻辑上的被动关系，应使用现在完成时的被动语态“has/have been done”。此外，句中的时间状语so far“到目前为止”也是现在完成时的常见标志词。 4. The proposal _________ by the student council last week aims to promote digital literacy among all freshmen. A. submitted B. submitting C. to submit D. being submitted 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：上周由学生会提交的提案旨在提高所有新生的数字素养。分析句子结构可知，空格处应填入非谓语动词作后置定语修饰名词“proposal”。动词“submit(提交)”与被修饰名词“proposal”之间是逻辑上的动宾关系（被动关系），且根据时间状语last week可知，该动作已经发生并完成，因此应使用过去分词表被动和完成。 5. He regretted the day _________ he wasted in the woods and _________ he should have studied. A. when; when B. that; when C. when; that D. that; that 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】考查定语从句。句意：他后悔在树林里浪费了一天，后悔本该学习的那一天。分析句子可知，分析第一个空：“he wasted in the woods”是一个定语从句，修饰先行词“the day”。在这个定语从句中，“wasted”是及物动词，缺少宾语，而关系代词“that”可以在定语从句中作宾语，指代先行词“the day”，即“he wasted the day in the woods”。关系副词“when”在定语从句中作时间状语，这里从句不缺少时间状语，所以不能用“when”，因此第一个空应填“that”。分析第二个空：“he should have studied”也是一个定语从句，修饰先行词“the day”。在这个从句中，“studied”是不及物动词，从句不缺少宾语，但缺少时间状语，表示“在那天他本应该学习”，关系副词“when”可以在定语从句中作时间状语，所以第二个空应填“when”。故选B项。 6. The development of new media, ________ from the internet to digital television，means that people working in advertising will have to come up with more ways to catch the public’s attention. A. ranges B. ranged C. to range D. ranging 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：从互联网到数字电视等新媒体的发展，意味着从事广告工作的人将不得不想出更多方法来吸引公众的注意力。分析句子结构可知，means是谓语，that引导的是宾语从句，从句中的谓语是will have，所以此处应为非谓语动词，range与其逻辑主语the development of new media之间为主动关系，结合句意可知，此处表示的是当前的状态，所以使用现在分词形式作定语。故选D项。 7. At present, more than one book on traditional Chinese culture _________ in the school library to enrich students’ after-class knowledge reserve. A. are displayed B. is displaying C. are being displayed D. is being displayed 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：目前，学校图书馆正在展出不止一本关于中国传统文化的书，以丰富学生的课后知识储备。根据句首的时间状语“At present”可知，句子表示目前正在进行的动作，应用现在进行时；主语“more than one book”与动词“display”之间是被动关系，需用被动语态；同时，“more than one + 单数名词”作主语时，谓语动词习惯上采用单数形式。因此，此处应使用现在进行时的被动语态的单数形式“is being displayed”。 8. With the Spring Festival ________, though ________ abroad for many years, John still observes the Chinese traditions. A. to approach; living B. approached; living C. approaching; having lived D. approaching; lived 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】考查现在分词。句意：随着春节的临近，尽管约翰已经在国外生活了多年，但他仍然遵循着中国的传统习俗。动词approach表示“接近，临近”，与the Spring Festival之间为主动关系，表示“正在临近”，故应用现在分词approaching，作宾补；动词live表示“生活，居住”，作状语，与主语John之间为主动关系，故应用现在分词形式，由for many years可知，约翰已经在国外生活了多年，故应用现在分词的完成式，即having lived。故选C。 9. The survey that the researchers would like to see _________ next month aims to collect students’ opinions on after-school activities. A. carrying out B. carry out C. to carry out D. carried out 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查非谓语动词。句意：研究人员希望下个月开展的这项调查旨在收集学生对课后活动的意见。本题考查“see+宾语+宾语补足语”结构。在定语从句“that the researchers would like to see _________ next month”中，关系代词that指代先行词survey，并在从句中作动词see的宾语。因为宾语survey（调查）与动词短语carry out（开展）之间是逻辑上的被动关系，所以需要使用过去分词作宾语补足语。 10. He is looking forward to the _________ broadcast of the concert, which will be aired at 8 p.m. tonight. A. living B. alive C. live D. lively 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他正期待着音乐会的现场直播，该音乐会将于今晚8点播出。A. living活着的；B. alive活着的；C. live现场的，实况转播的；D. lively活泼的，结合broadcast of the concert可知，此处表示“现场直播”，应使用形容词live，live broadcast“现场直播”为固定搭配。 11. _________ is often the case, outdoor-loving kids are likely to be more active than indoor ones. A. As B. That C. Which D. When 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：情况常常如此，喜爱户外活动的孩子可能比宅在家里的孩子更活泼。空处引导非限制性定语从句，固定搭配as is often the case表示“情况常常如此”，as指代后面整句话内容，可置于句首引导从句。 12. The police are planning to _________ the cause of the serious traffic accident during the morning rush hour. A. look after B. look into C. look up D. look down on 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：警方计划调查早上高峰时段发生的这起严重交通事故的原因。A. look after照顾；B. look into调查；C. look up查阅，向上看；D. look down on轻视，看不起。根据“the cause of the serious traffic accident”可知，本空表示“调查”，用look into。 13. According to the school rule, every student _________ wear their school uniform on weekdays. A. shall B. will C. would D. could 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】考查情态动词。句意：根据学校规定，每个学生在工作日必须穿校服。A. shall应，必须（用于法律、规则）；B. will将要；C. would将会，会；D. could可以，能。shall用于第二、第三人称作主语的陈述句中，表示命令、警告、允诺或条约、规章、法令等文件中的规定。题干中“According to the school rule”表明这是学校的规章制度，主语“every student”为第三人称，因此应用“shall”表示按规定“必须，应该”做某事。故选A项。 14. Spreading rumors online is _________ public order and such behavior will surely be investigated. A. for B. with C. against D. to 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：在网上散布谣言是违反公共秩序的，这种行为肯定会被调查。A. for为了；B. with和……一起；C. against违反，反对；D. to朝，向。空格处表示“违反”公共秩序，应使用介词against，be against public order意为“违反公共秩序”。 15.

A. in case B. now that C. as if D. even though 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】考查连接词词义辨析。句意：尽管知道得到这份工作的机会很小，她还是决心申请。A. in case以防，万一；B. now that既然，由于；C. as if好像，仿佛；D. even though尽管，即使。根据句意可知，前后句为让步关系，应用even though引导的让步状语从句。故选D项。 第二节：完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分） 阅读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后从31~50各题所给出的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 It was 3:30 in the morning.

Camp rules are in place to keep the camp community safe and camp operations running smoothly throughout their stay. 1．Keep Your Personal Space Clean Since your child will be in close quarters with many other campers, it’s important that they understand the necessity of keeping their sleeping and living areas organized. Go over ways for your child to stay organized and tidy before they leave for camp. When packing, make sure to provide a laundry bag to keep clean and dirty clothing separate. Utilize under bed space or put clothes on your shelves or cubbies rather than living out of your suitcase or camp trunk. It also helps to not over pack. Follow packing list guidelines closely so your child can find what they need without having to dig through piles of clothing that were not recommended. This also helps you child know what they have in their luggage so they pull out the sweatshirt when it gets cold, instead of thinking there wasn’t one in their bag. Remind your child of their camp account so they can purchase items from the camp store if necessary. 2．Valuables at Camp As a best practice, we recommend leaving all valuables at home. Even if your child has a bracelet or necklace that they never take off, there is still the chance that it could be lost while swimming or participating in camp activities. If you are thinking about bringing an expensive item of clothing, be prepared for it to get lost or damaged. You may be better off buying a new, less expensive version. To be on the safe side, don’t let your child bring anything irreplaceable or emotionally valuable to camp. 3．Play Nice Name calling, fighting, bullying, and arguing are strictly prohibited at summer camp. Camp is a place to make friends, so aggressive behavior is not tolerated. Remind your child that they don’t have to be everybody’s best friend, but they do have to be friendly to everyone. Encourage your child to go into camp with the mindset of making a few new friends, and chances are they will leave camp having made more than a few. 4．Have Fun and Try New Things At the end of the day, summer camp is about getting out of your comfort zone, trying new things, and having a blast. Before your child leaves for camp, congratulate them for being brave enough to try sleepaway camp in the first place. Let them know that they’ve already won just by trying, and the fun part is just about to begin. Remind them again that summer camp rules exist only to improve the overall camp experience and to create a community of fun. 36. What advice does the article give if a camper forgets an essential item? A. Borrow from friends with permission. B. Ask camp staff to mail items from home. C. Purchase replacements from the camp store. D. Go without the item to learn responsibility. 37. What does the article imply about bringing valuables to summer camp? A. It is completely forbidden under all circumstances. B. It is acceptable if the child promises to take good care of them. C. It is not recommended because of the risk of loss or damage. D. It is only allowed for expensive clothing items. 38. Which of the following behaviors is advocated by the summer camp? A. Forming exclusive groups with similar interests. B. Engaging in at guments to resolve disagreements. C. Avoiding participating in adventurous activities. D. Keeping personal camping supplies in order. 39. What does the article suggest about trying new things at camp? A. It is optional but highly encouraged for personal growth. B. The main goal of camp is to challenge and achieve success. C. Stepping out of one’s comfort zone is part of the experience. D. Only experienced campers should try challenging activities. 40. What is the purpose of clarifying the rules of summer camp? A. To ensure safety and maintain a well-organized camp environment. B. To help children adapt quickly and enjoy their camp experience fully. C. To restrict campers’ freedom and enforce strict discipline at all times. D. To prepare parents for potential issues and reduce their concerns. 【答案】36. C 37. C 38. D 39. C 40. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了夏令营规则及其相关内容，旨在帮助孩子们更好地适应夏令营生活。 【36题详解】 细节理解题。根据Keep Your Personal Space Clean部分最后一句“Remind your child of their camp account so they can purchase items from the camp store if necessary.(提醒你的孩子他们的营地账户，以便必要时可以从营地商店购买物品。)”可知，若忘记必需品，建议从营地商店购买。故选C。 【37题详解】 推理判断题。根据Valuables at Camp部分前两句“As a best practice, we recommend leaving all valuables at home.(作为最佳做法，我们建议将所有贵重物品留在家中。)”和“Even if your child has a bracelet or necklace that they never take off, there is still the chance that it could be lost while swimming or participating in camp activities.(即使你的孩子有一个手镯或项链，他们永远不会摘下，仍然有可能在游泳或参加露营活动时丢失。)”可知，文章不建议携带贵重物品，因其有丢失或损坏风险。故选C。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。根据Keep Your Personal Space Clean部分中第一段强调“Since your child will be in close quarters with many other campers, it’s important that they understand the necessity of keeping their sleeping and living areas organized.(由于您的孩子将与许多其他露营者近距离接触，因此他们了解保持睡眠和生活区域有序的必要性非常重要。)”及后文具体整理建议可知，“保持个人露营用品井然有序”是营地提倡的行为。故选D。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据Have Fun and Try New Things部分首句“At the end of the day, summer camp is about getting out of your comfort zone, trying new things, and having a blast.(在一天结束的时候，夏令营就是走出你的舒适区，尝试新事物，尽情享受。)”可知，走出舒适区是夏令营体验的一部分。故选C。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段第二句“Camp rules are in place to keep the camp community safe and camp operations running smoothly throughout their stay.(制定营地规则是为了确保营地社区的安全，并使营地运营在整个停留期间顺利进行。)”可知，明确夏令营规则的目的是确保安全和维持有序的营地环境。故选A。 B It was a September afternoon. The air was thick and warm, and by the time my dad and I reached the cove, which we called a swimming palace, my clothes were damp and itchy on my skin. Dad swam nearby a cove, diving into a splash of front crawl, heading out toward the edge of our narrow bay. Overwhelmed, suddenly, with envy, I did what I hadn’t done in years: I held my breath and pulled my own head underwater. There, suspended beneath the glimmering surface, I remembered it all. My love of diving, swimming, rivers and lakes. I felt the cold ocean’s press on my cheeks and my eyelids, and knew what it was like again: to be free and fully present in my own skin. Though I’ve always loved the water, I had spent seven years prior to that day staying away from moments like this one. I was afraid. Struggling for a long time with chronic acne (粉刺) and unhelpful treatments, and the pressures of teenage girls’ appearance, I had become entirely reliant on my makeup. I needed total control over how I looked, and going swimming meant washing this control away. My bare face and natural appearance were not something I identified with. I hated it, deeply, though I wished more than anything that I didn’t. But those 10 minutes of contentment I floated within — the muffled quiet of the underwater world — were fuel for the next chapter of my life. This would be my yardstick. Suddenly, it didn’t matter how I did it. Whether through medication or mental attitude, I would find a way to have the kind of life that allowed me to dive into the water whenever it called. That day was the beginning of a slow but determined journey back to my own body — a slow unlearning of my deep self-consciousness. Life didn’t change in a heartbeat: I returned to the shore with all the same fears, but I clothed myself in a new determination to change things. I felt the tide turn. Looking back on this moment again today, it seems strange to think that going bare-faced on an empty beach was such a challenge. But this is exactly the perspective I had once dreamed of reaching. I do my best never to take for granted this freedom I have found. To pay attention, each time I sink under the surface of the water, embracing that wave of fear and joy and liberation. 41. The author avoided swimming for seven years because _________. A. she had to receive treatments. B. she had no access to the cove. C. she felt insecure without makeup. D. she hated to reapply her makeup. 42. How did the author feel after she returned from the diving? A. Proud. B. Joyful. C. Hesitant. D. Resolved. 43. What does the author emphasize about her experience in the water? A. It reminded her of her acne struggles. B. It made her feel more self-conscious. C. It helped her escape her fears. D. It made makeup important. 44. What can we learn from this passage? A. You can’t judge a book by its cover. B. Self-acceptance is the greatest gift. C. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder. D. Nothing is difficult to a willing heart. 45. Where is this passage most likely from? A. An article on swimming benefits. B. A magazine about beauty tips. C. A memoir about body image. D. A travel guide on beaches. 【答案】41. C 42. D 43. C 44. B 45. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述作者因长期受粉刺困扰、过度依赖化妆而七年不敢游泳，一次和父亲下海潜水的经历让她重拾内心自由，开启接纳自身容貌、摆脱容貌焦虑的自我疗愈之路。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Struggling for a long time with chronic acne (粉刺) and unhelpful treatments, and the pressures of teenage girls’ appearance, I had become entirely reliant on my makeup.(长期饱受顽固粉刺与无效治疗的折磨，再加上青少年女孩对外貌的压力，我变得完全依赖化妆品。)”以及“I needed total control over how I looked, and going swimming meant washing this control away.(我需要完全掌控自己的外貌，而游泳意味着这份掌控会消失。)”可知，作者七年避开游泳是因为不化妆就极度缺乏安全感。 【42题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第五段“I returned to the shore with all the same fears, but I clothed myself in a new determination to change things.(我带着所有恐惧回到岸边，但心中生出了改变现状的全新决心。)”可知，潜水过后作者内心充满坚定。 【43题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第四段“But those 10 minutes of contentment I floated within — the muffled quiet of the underwater world — were fuel for the next chapter of my life.(但水下那十分钟安然惬意、万籁俱寂的时光，成为我人生下一阶段的动力。)”和第五段“That day was the beginning of a slow but determined journey back to my own body — a slow unlearning of my deep self-consciousness.(那一天，一段缓慢却坚定的与自己身体和解的旅程开启了，我慢慢摆脱深重的容貌焦虑。)”可知，水下的经历帮助她摆脱容貌焦虑的恐惧。 【44题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“I do my best never to take for granted this freedom I have found. To pay attention, each time I sink under the surface of the water, embracing that wave of fear and joy and liberation.(我竭尽全力，绝不将这份寻得的自由视作理所当然。每次潜入水下，我都会静心感受，接纳那交织着惶恐、喜悦与释然的万千心绪。)”并结合全文内容可知，作者因在意外表封闭自己，水下的体验让她逐渐接纳真实的自己、获得心灵自由，说明文章核心是“接纳自我是最珍贵的馈赠”。 【45题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第一段“Overwhelmed, suddenly, with envy, I did what I hadn’t done in years: I held my breath and pulled my own head underwater.(我心中突然涌起一阵强烈的羡慕，于是做了多年未曾做过的事：屏住呼吸，把头扎进水里。)”及第五段“That day was the beginning of a slow but determined journey back to my own body — a slow unlearning of my deep self-consciousness.(那一天，一段缓慢却坚定的与自己身体和解的旅程开启了，我慢慢摆脱深重的容貌焦虑。)”及全文内容可知，全文围绕作者的亲身经历、容貌焦虑、自我接纳展开叙述，是关于自我身体形象的个人回忆，可知文章最可能出自讲述自我身体认知的回忆录。 C Picture this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $ 3.50 and the large is $ 5.50. It’s a tough decision: The small size may not last you through the whole movie, but $ 5.50 for some sugary drink seems ridiculous. But there’s a third option, a medium soda for $ 5.25. Medium may be the perfect amount of soda for you, but the large is only a quarter more. If you’re like most people, you end up buying the large (and taking a bathroom break midshow). If you’re wondering who would buy the medium soda, the answer is almost no one. In fact, there’s a good chance the marketing department purposely priced the medium soda as a decoy (诱饵), making you more likely to buy the large soda rather than the small. I have written about this peculiarity in human nature before with my friend Dan Ariely, who studied this phenomenon extensively after noticing pricing for subscriptions (订阅) to The Economist. The digital subscription was $ 59, the print subscription was $ 125, and the print plus digital subscription was also $ 125. No one in their right mind would buy the print subscription when you could get digital as well for the same price, so why was it even an option? Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two “real” choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. But the addition of the bad option made people much more likely to choose the more expensive print plus digital option. Brain scientists call this effect “asymmetric dominance” and it means that people gravitate toward the choice nearest a clearly inferior option. Marketing professors call it the decoy effect, which is certainly easier to remember. Lucky for consumers, almost no one in the business community understands it. The decoy effect works because of the way our brains assign value when making choices. Value is almost never absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to our other choices. If more options are introduced, the value equation changes. 46. Why does the author ask us to imagine buying food in the movie theater? A. To show how popular snacks are among movie fans. B. To show how hard it can be to choose a drink there. C. To illustrate the increasing variety of snacks there. D. To illustrate people’s peculiar shopping behavior. 47. Why is the medium soda priced the way it is? A. To make customers believe they are getting a bargain. B. To ensure customers drink the right amount of soda. C. To show the price matches the amount. D. To attract more customers to buy it. 48. What do we learn from Dan Ariely’s experiment? A. More readers choose the digital over the print edition. B. The Economist’s print edition turns out to sell the best. C. The Economist’s promotional strategy works. D. Lower-priced goods attract more customers. 49. For what purpose is “the bad option” in Paragraph 3 added? A. To provide customers with a greater variety of goods. B. To trap customers into buying the more pricey item. C. To cater to the peculiar needs of some customers. D. To help customers to make more rational choices. 50. How do we assess the value of a commodity, according to the passage? A. By comparing it with other choices. B. By taking its quality into account. C. By examining its value equation. D. By considering its usefulness. 【答案】46. D 47. A 48. C 49. B 50. A 【解析】 【导语】文章以影院饮品定价为例，介绍诱饵效应，阐释其原理、相关实验及人们的商品价值判断方式。 【46题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Picture this: You’re at a movie theater food stand loading up on snacks. You have a choice of a small, medium or large soda. The small is $ 3.50 and the large is $ 5.50. It’s a tough decision: The small size may not last you through the whole movie, but $ 5.50 for some sugary drink seems ridiculous. But there’s a third option, a medium soda for $ 5.25. Medium may be the perfect amount of soda for you, but the large is only a quarter more. If you’re like most people, you end up buying the large (and taking a bathroom break midshow).(想象一下：你在电影院的小吃摊上买零食。你可以选择小杯、中杯或大杯的苏打水。小的是3.5美元，大的是5.5美元。这是一个艰难的决定：小杯可能撑不了你看完整部电影，但5.50美元的含糖饮料似乎很荒谬。但还有第三种选择，5.25美元的中杯苏打水。中杯可能是最适合你的苏打水，但大杯只贵了25美分。如果你和大多数人一样，你最终会买大号的（并且在放映中途去洗手间休息一下）)”以及第三段“I have written about this peculiarity (怪异) in human nature before with my friend Dan Ariely, who studied this phenomenon extensively after noticing pricing for subscriptions (订阅) to The Economist.(我以前和我的朋友Dan Ariely一起写过关于人性中的这种独特的文章，Dan Ariely在注意到《经济学人》的订阅定价后对这一现象进行了广泛的研究)”提到作者和朋友对人性的这种独特性行为进行过研究，可推知，作者让我们想象在电影院买食物是为了来说明人们独特的购物行为。 【47题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“In fact, there’s a good chance the marketing department purposely priced the medium soda as a decoy (诱饵), making you more likely to buy the large soda rather than the small.(事实上，市场营销部门很可能故意将中杯汽水定这个价格作为诱饵，让你更倾向于购买大杯汽水而非小杯)”以及第一段“the large is only a quarter more(大杯只贵了25美分)”可知，中杯的定价是为了衬托大杯性价比更高，让消费者觉得买大杯很划算，从而选择大杯饮品。 【48题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“Ariely ran an experiment and found that when only the two “real” choices were offered, more people chose the less-expensive digital subscription. But the addition of the bad option made people much more likely to choose the more expensive print plus digital option.(Ariely做了一项实验，发现当只提供两种“真实”选择时，更多人会选择价格更低的数字版订阅。但加入这个不合理的选项后，人们更倾向于选择价格更高的纸质版加数字版套餐)”可知，《经济学人》设置不合理定价选项的营销策略起到了效果，成功引导消费者购买高价套餐。 【49题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“But the addition of the bad option made people much more likely to choose the more expensive print plus digital option.(但加入这个不合理的选项后，人们更倾向于选择价格更高的纸质版加数字版套餐)”可知，第三段中添加“不合理选项”的目的是诱导消费者购买价格更高的商品。 【50题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Value is almost never absolute; rather, we decide an object’s value relative to our other choices.(价值几乎从来不是绝对的；相反，我们会通过对比其他选择来判定一件商品的价值)”可知，人们通过与其他选择对比来评估商品的价值。 D Expressions linking space to time are a common part of our day-to-day lives. You might say the morning “flew by” or that school exams are “drawing near”. Right now, you might say summer is “just around the corner”. Unlike the physical space we inhabit, time cannot be seen or touched. How, then, did humans come to talk so effortlessly about such an abstract concept? The key lies in the way we project our understanding of space to conceptualize time. Explorations of how humans conceptualize time as space are tied closely to the study of language and cognition (认知). Conceptual Metaphor Theory proposes that our conception of the world is governed by metaphors (隐喻), many of which are anchored in the three dimensions of physical space. Metaphors of time can be divided into “ego-moving” and “time-moving” metaphors, indicating the different ways of perceiving the relationship between space and time. In “ego-moving” metaphors, a person moves toward a fixed point in time, as in “we’re getting close to summer”. In “time-moving” metaphors, time moves toward the individual, as in “summer is nearly here”. When analyzing the spatial understanding of time, one particularly interesting phenomenon stands out: verbs of movement to describe the passage of time. Verbs like “progress”, “approach” or even “pass” are common examples. The use of particular verbs to describe the passage of time may reflect our subjective perception of it. For example, when we say “time flies”, we know it refers to a pleasant situation. In contrast, when we are bored or waiting for something, we might say “time drags” to express boredom and slowness. In a movie, for example, a viewer may feel that time “flies” or “drags”, depending on how interested they are in the story, or how well the film is made. Our choice of verbs not only communicates an objective fact, but also our emotional and psychological state: whether an event is “long” or “short” depends on how we feel about it. This demonstrates the interconnected nature of cognition, emotion and language in our perception of the passage of time. 51. According to the text, what can metaphors be considered to be? A. A combination of language and culture. B. A great help in understanding language. C. A link between theory in physics and human cognition. D. A powerful influence on how we understand the world. 52. Which of the following is an example of an “ego-moving” metaphor? A. Exams are soon coming up. B. We are approaching the holidays. C. Time flies when you’re having fun. D. Mother’s Day is just around the corner. 53. What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph 6 refer to? A. The use of particular verbs. B. The passage of time. C. A particular verb. D. A period of time. 54. What can we infer from the passage about viewers’ perception of time when they are watching a movie? A. Filmgoers always feel that time flies when watching a movie. B. It depends on the interconnected nature of cognition. C. It is related to their interest and the film’s quality. D. Viewers don’t care about how long a movie lasts. 55. What is the purpose of the last paragraph? A. To give a summary of movement verbs. B. To describe what time in motion is like. C. To show the richness of human thought. D. To introduce the basic concept of metaphors. 【答案】51. D 52. B 53. B 54. C 55. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍人们习惯用空间概念隐喻时间，讲解两种时空隐喻分类，描述运动动词如何体现人对时间流逝的主观感受，并说明认知、情绪与语言在感知时间时相互关联。 【51题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第三段“Conceptual Metaphor Theory proposes that our conception of the world is governed by metaphors, many of which are anchored in the three dimensions of physical space.(概念隐喻理论提出，我们对世界的认知由隐喻主导，许多隐喻都根植于物理空间的三个维度。)”可知，隐喻深刻影响我们理解世界的方式。 【52题详解】 细节理解题。根据原文第四段“In “ego-moving” metaphors, a person moves toward a fixed point in time, as in “we’re getting close to summer”.(在 “自我移动型” 隐喻中，人朝着一个固定的时间点前进，例如 “我们快要迎来夏天了”。)”可知，B选项 “We are approaching the holidays.(我们快要迎来假期)”是人主动向时间靠近，属于自我移动型隐喻。 【53题详解】 词句猜测题。根据原文第六段“The use of particular verbs to describe the passage of time may reflect our subjective perception of it.(使用特定动词描述时间的流逝，或许会反映我们对它的主观感受。)”可知，此处it指代前文的the passage of time。 【54题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文第六段“In a movie, for example, a viewer may feel that time “flies” or “drags”, depending on how interested they are in the story, or how well the film is made.(比如看电影时，观众会觉得时光飞逝或度日如年，这取决于他们对故事的感兴趣程度以及影片制作的好坏。)”可知，观众对观影时时间的感知和自身兴趣、影片质量有关。 【55题详解】 推理判断题。根据原文最后一段“Our choice of verbs not only communicates an objective fact, but also our emotional and psychological state: whether an event is “long” or “short” depends on how we feel about it. This demonstrates the interconnected nature of cognition, emotion and language in our perception of the passage of time.(我们选用的动词不仅传递客观事实，还体现我们的情绪与心理状态：一件事是漫长还是短暂取决于我们自身感受。这证明在感知时间流逝的过程中，认知、情绪和语言是相互关联的。)”可知，本段总结动词选择承载主观情绪，目的是展现人类认知、情感结合的丰富思维。 第Ⅱ卷（共35分） 注意事项： 1．用黑色墨水的钢笔或签字笔将答案写在答题卡上。 2．本卷共6小题，共35分。 第四部分：写作 第一节：阅读表达（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读短文，按照题目要求用英语回答问题。 Every single person has a story to share, and a growing number of older Australians are choosing to record their life memories as short films. While writing memoirs can take years, creating a life story film takes just a few hours — and the resulting films are far more vivid than writing or looking through photo albums. Television producer and director Danika Armytage, known for producing shows like The Block, River Cottage Australia, Travel Guides, and The Living Room, has launched a company called Big Stories Little Films, which specialises in creating life legacy films. Since its inception in 2024, Danika has been busy bringing people’s stories to life in film. “Our films tell life stories, capture family ancestry, and allow wisdom to be passed between generations,” Danika explains. “They are often a gift between family members — either ordered as a birthday present from the kids, or as a film gifted from the grandparents to their grandkids — it’s like a film heirloom (传家宝) to pass between generations.” Danika was inspired to start the company after filming an interview with her own grandmother, Halimah, before she passed away. “The film became priceless to my family, especially after Granny died. Now my own children can meet their great-grandmother and feel connected to our family history, even though they never met her in person. Memories fade, but films are a time capsule that safeguards stories, keeping them as vivid as if you’re sitting at the kitchen bench hearing them directly from your grandparent.” “One of my favourite films was about brother and sister Raymond and Jennice Kersh, now in their 80s, who ran the iconic Sydney restaurant Edna’s Table and were pioneers in serving indigenous ingredients in the Sydney restaurant scene. Their story is inspiring, and their recollections of growing up in Pyrmont in the 1940s, a suburb where everyone was poor but no one was lonel’ are a perfect example of how these films capture living history.” These life legacy films have become more than just memory carriers — they bridge time, letting younger generations touch the past through elders’ voices and smiles. For families, they’re irreplaceable heirlooms; for society, they’re fragments of living history. As more older Australians embrace this way, countless unique stories are being saved from fading, turning personal moments into lasting family and cultural treasures. 56.

(这些生命遗产电影已经不仅仅是记忆的载体，它们架起了时间的桥梁，让年轻一代通过长辈的声音和微笑来触摸过去)”可知，短片有声音和笑容，能让回忆更生动，因此更适合保存回忆。故答案为Short films. They have voices and smiles to make memories vivid. 第二节：书面表达（满分25分） 61. 假设你是李津，你的英国笔友Chris来信让你介绍你最喜欢的体育运动。请你根据以下提示，用英语给他写封电子邮件： （1）你何时开始喜欢的此项体育运动和原因； （2）现在开展此项体育运动的情况； （3）开展此项体育运动给你带来的益处。 注意： （1）词数不少于100； （2）可以适当加入细节，使内容充实、行文连贯； （3）开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Chris, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Jin 【答案】 Dear Chris, I’m glad to tell you my favorite sport is running.
