Kelsey Pelham October 2025 Rating stars: ★★★★★
I come here regularly to meet with friends. It’s a cheerful space with lots of natural light, local art decorating the walls and books available in the lower room. As for the menu, there is definitely a spirit of innovation with new creations offered seasonally. Last thing I will comment on is that this coffee shop participates in community partnerships and really seems to practice local sourcing as much as possible, and they advertise special events and opportunities each month. A stand-out coffee shop we are blessed to have.
Aldo Lavalle November 2025 Rating stars: ★★★☆☆
Pretty good first experience overall. Spacious dining area with lots of seating options and a very homey feel. WiFi available with password clearly displayed. Ample (丰富的) menu. Parking can be a drawback at first glance until you come across the extra parking lot sign in the back. Since the actual parking lot near the building is super small, only a few spaces, there should be a clear sign at the front where it says “additional parking in the back”, or else you won’t know it’s there.
Overall would recommend.
21. Which aspect of University Coffee ranked highest?
A. Flavorful coffee. B. Farm-fresh food.
C. Relaxing atmosphere. D. Approachable service.
22. What does Pelham praise the coffee shop for?
A. Popularity among local artists. B. Sufficient seating options.
C. Active community engagement. D. Global sourcing practices.
23. What does Lavalle suggest about the shop’s parking?
A. Closing the back parking lot. B. Adding a parking sign.
C. Building another parking lot. D. Enlarging the front area.

When I was quite young, my family had a telephone. I would sit quietly and listen when my mother talked to it. I was surprised to discover that somewhere inside it lived a lady named "Information Please".
One day my mother went out to visit a neighbor, I hit my head against the door while playing. It was painful, but I held back my tears because there was no one home to give sympathy(同情). Then, I noticed the telephone.
Quickly, I unhooked the receiver and held it to my ear. "Information Please," I said into the mouthpiece. Then a clear voice spoke into my ear." Information". "I hurt my head." I spoke into the phone. "Isn't your mother home?" came the question. "Nobody's at home but me." I cried. "Can you open your icebox?" she asked. I said I could. "Then took out a piece of ice and hold it to your head." said the voice.
After that, I called "information Please" each time I met with a problem. When my pet canary(金丝雀)died, I called "Information Please" and told her the sad story. She comforted me, saying softly, "Paul, always remember there are other worlds to sing in."
Later, we moved, but the memories of those conversations never really left. One day when I was alone, I dialed again and said. "Information, Please." A different voice answered, "Information". I asked for Sally. "Are you a friend?" he asked. "Yes, a very old friend. My name is Paul." I answered. "Well, Sally left a message for you. Let me read it to you. It said. 'Paul always remember there are other worlds to sing in.’ I'm sorry to tell you that Sally has..." I stopped him and hung up, tears rolling down silently. I knew what Sally meant.
24. What amazed the author when he was quite young?
A. There was a telephone in his family.
B. His mother was always on the phone.
C. There was a lady living in the phone.
D. A woman he knew had a strange name.
25. Why did the author call "Information Please" when he hurt his head?
A. To ask his mother to come back home.
B. To seek sympathy from someone else.
C. To satisfy his curiosity about the phone.
D. To find out how to treat his aching head.

In the past thirty years, bee numbers in the United Kingdom have fallen by nearly a third. The main reasons are climate change and the loss of natural habitats. These changes make it hard for bees to find enough pollen (花粉) and nectar (花蜜). Pollen is important because it gives bees proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Without these nutrients, bees cannot stay healthy. Beekeepers sometimes give bees extra food, but these supplements lack all the nutrients bees need. As a result, the lack of good food has become a serious problem for honeybees.
To solve this, scientists led by Professor Geraldine Wright from the University of Oxford worked to design better food. The challenge was that bees need special nutrients called sterols, which are not easy to make. The team studied which sterols bees need, and then found a way to produce them. They created a type of yeast (酵母) that can make all six sterols. The next step was to prepare the food in a form bees would accept. Since bees are fussy eaters who turn their noses up at unsuitable food, the team made a soft “cookie dough” mixture with bee-friendly ingredients.
The scientists tested the new food in glasshouses. The results were impressive. Colonies that ate the food produced up to fifteen times more young bees than colonies that did not. These young bees also grew into healthy adults. The bees with the new diet lived longer, cared for their young better, and were stronger against diseases. This showed the food could greatly improve bee growth and survival. Wright called it “a huge breakthrough for the species.”
The study has important significance for both bees and people. With this new food, bees will not need to fight so much for wildflowers. This can help bee populations recover and become stronger. Since bees are key pollinators (授粉者) for many crops, protecting them also helps protect human food supplies. If the food is used on a larger scale, it could be a big step toward saving bees and supporting global food security.
28. What can we learn about bee supplements from paragraph 1?
A. They are made from natural pollen and nectar. B. They contain all the nutrients bees need.
C. They cannot fully replace natural food sources. D. They help solve the healthy problem of bees.
29. What does the underlined word “fussy” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Quiet. B. Picky. C. Big. D. Fast.
30. What does the glasshouse test suggest about the new food?
A. It suits bees’ tastes better. B. It makes young bees grow faster.
C. It works best in a controlled environment. D. It boosts bees’ population and well-being.
31. What is the potential significance of the study?
A. It encourages people to keep bees. B. It helps safeguard human food sources.
C. It indicates environmental health condition. D. It removes bees’ dependence on wildflowers.
D
Readers on social media are making the beauty of reading more visible than ever with creative and often complicated annotations (批注). Called marginalia, these markups can be detailed, with notes that nearly fill full pages and even match the color of the book’s cover. This practice has started a lively debate: are marginalia a beneficial reading habit, or do they simply ruin books?
But marginalia are far from a modern invention. Centuries ago, Leonardo da Vinci wrote down his thoughts on gravity in the margins (页边空白) of his Codex Arundel, anticipating Galileo’s work by years. In literature, early editions of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice often contain annotations from 19th-century readers, capturing emotional responses that mirror those of today’s readers. More recently, celebrated novelist Ann Patchett released an annotated edition of Tom Lake, allowing her to revisit her writing while offering readers a unique “behind-the-scenes” look into her creative process.
Modern neuroscience (神经科学) now confirms the mental benefits of this age-old habit. A study in Frontiers in Psychology found that handwriting boosts memory and deepens comprehension of the text. Extending this finding, Professor Maryanne Wolf suggests that through marginalia, readers not only absorb the author’s wisdom but also uncover their own insights.
Furthermore, annotation has evolved into a medium for dialogue with the self and a bridge to others. Marcela, a Bookstagrammer, explains. “You can literally see how my views on characters evolve through my notes, and I love being able to look back at my early plot predictions.” Moreover, it is now common for readers to gift annotated books as personalized presents and hunt for secondhand copies bearing the notes of previous readers or even the authors, transforming a finished book into a dynamic, co-created text.
So, if the book-fluencers fill their books with a colorful chaos of thoughts, why not let them? After all, in the pursuit of deeper understanding and connection, a few untidy margins seem a small price to pay.
32. What practice is mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. Writing personal notes in books. B. Sharing helpful reading habits.
C. Posting reading moments online. D. Designing beautiful book covers.
33. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding marginalia?
A. Their modern artistic value. B. Their well-recognized figures.
C. Their use in classic literature. D. Their long-standing presence.
34. Why do some readers buy secondhand annotated books?
A. To deepen test comprehension. B. To collect rare editions.
C. To find out correct predictions. D. To connect with past thoughts.
35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Meaningful Minds in Messy Margins. B. Personal Response to Annotated Critics.
C. The Neuroscience Behind Marginalia. D. Forgotten Stories Between Annotated Lines.
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
Have you ever experienced such moments: a warm smile from a stranger, a brief chat with someone waiting in line, or a simple wave to a neighbor you hardly know? These tiny interactions among strangers and familiar faces alike are called “microconnections”. ____36____ Yet their importance goes far beyond our awareness.
When people have a microconnection with a stranger, the levels of dopamine (多巴胺) in their brain increase while the body’s stress chemical decreases. The result is a greater sense of well-being. ____37____ They enable both parties to gain a more positive mindset and greater relaxation.
Another effect of these casual interactions lies in their influence on how you perceive reality and respond to novel ideas. ____38____ Thus brief contacts with them can offer brand-new spiritual enrichment and broaden your perspectives on the world. Interestingly, research shows people may actually be more open to considering opposing viewpoints when talking to strangers than to close family members, which lays a solid foundation for in-depth and original idea exchanges.
____39____ They build public trust, which in turn makes social communities more closely connected. As Sandstrom, a well-known psychologist, explains, “That sense of community is a huge thing we get from talking to strangers-it’s just feeling there’s this shared humanity and that we are seen by other people and valued by other people.” This feeling helps people recognize themselves as part of a community.
In a world where people often feel disconnected, these small moments remind us of the hidden bonds between ordinary individuals. A microconnection may bear lasting fruit. ____40____
A. They tend to slip our attention.
B. Microconnections are also two-way streets.
C. People are eager for connection with others.
D. Brief exchanges affect more than just the two individuals.
E. Such encounters bring unnoticed changes to the inner world.
F. Those who you meet by chance possess diverse life experiences.
G. So next time do not hesitate to offer a smile to a person around you.

I had only ever made simple chocolate chip ones, following a recipe my grandmother ____44____.
I told my daughters I couldn’t ____45____ the party, for I really didn’t have suitable new recipes. But they ____46____ me, saying, “You’ll represent the good old-fashioned ____47____ during holidays. Your simplicity will be refreshing.” That evening, we made chocolate chip cookies together. Walking into the party, I admired the delicate cookies and ____48____ put mine between candy cane cookies. What if no one took any of my cookies? I thought as I was ____49____ others’ cookies. They were charming in ____50____, but not so delicious as mine. “Who ____51____ the chocolate chip cookies?” someone asked. Chatter (聊天) in the room died down. Then a brief ____52____ fell before I said, “I did.”
“What an interesting ____53____,” another said. “I would never have thought of it. It’s comforting, and ____54____ me of my mother and home.”
I smiled, recalling chocolate chip cookies my grandmother and mother made. Maybe there was something to say about the ____55____ old recipes, like coming home.

67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad was a man of few words. Growing up, I only had short conversations with him. He worked long hours as a mechanic, his hands always covered with grease (机油). I loved him, but I often felt like we lived in two different worlds. I was buried in books and dreams of college; he was buried under cars and the weight of making ends meet.
The silence between us widened into a gap during my junior year. I had a burning desire to attend a creative writing summer program at a famous university across the country. It was expensive and, in his eyes, impractical. “Wasting money on dreams,” he said one evening, not looking up from the newspaper. That was his only comment. I felt very angry.
The following Saturday, I planned to spend the day studying at the library, escaping the heavy silence at home. But as I walked towards the bus stop, I realized I’d forgotten my notebook. Annoyed, I turned back. As I approached our small garage, I heard a strange noise. Looking through the slightly open door, I stopped dead in my tracks.
There was my dad, bent over his old workbench. But he wasn’t fixing a car. Around him were pieces of wood, fine sandpaper, and small tools I’d never seen before. In his grease-worn hands, he held a piece of polished mahogany (红木), carefully carving it into the shape of a fountain pen. On his workbench lay a worn-out copy of my favorite novel, The Catcher in the Rye, which I had carelessly left in the living room.
He was painstakingly testing the pen he was making — dipping its unfinished nib (笔尖) into ink, copying a sentence from the book onto a piece of paper. Then he would stop, turn the piece of mahogany in his hand, and carve a little more.
He wasn’t just making a pen; he was trying to build a bridge into my world, using the only tools he knew — his hands and his labor. My anger became a deep sense of shock and shame.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I quietly pushed the door open and stepped inside.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
My dad handed me the roughly-carved pen, his eyes still avoiding mine.

【原文】M: Good Times Holidays. John speaking. How may I help you?
W: Hello. I’m calling to complain about a holiday we’ve just had.
M: I’m sorry to hear about that. So what was the problem you encountered?
W: We just got back on January the 21st from a five-day holiday. There were two things that disappointed us. In the first place, we were told that a taxi would meet us at the station and take us straight to the house. But in fact, there wasn’t one there. We had to wait for ages and then pay for one ourselves.
M: OK. I’ll look into that.
W: And we’d been promised there would be a bicycle for each of us stored at the house. But there were only three, which is no good for a family of four.
M: OK. Well, I’ll check into that as well. Now, if you give me a few hours, I’ll get back to you this afternoon and then we can discuss.

I come here regularly to meet with friends. It’s a cheerful space with lots of natural light, local art decorating the walls and books available in the lower room. As for the menu, there is definitely a spirit of innovation with new creations offered seasonally. Last thing I will comment on is that this coffee shop participates in community partnerships and really seems to practice local sourcing as much as possible, and they advertise special events and opportunities each month. A stand-out coffee shop we are blessed to have.
Aldo Lavalle November 2025 Rating stars: ★★★☆☆
Pretty good first experience overall. Spacious dining area with lots of seating options and a very homey feel. WiFi available with password clearly displayed. Ample (丰富的) menu. Parking can be a drawback at first glance until you come across the extra parking lot sign in the back. Since the actual parking lot near the building is super small, only a few spaces, there should be a clear sign at the front where it says “additional parking in the back”, or else you won’t know it’s there.
Overall would recommend.

When I was quite young, my family had a telephone. I would sit quietly and listen when my mother talked to it. I was surprised to discover that somewhere inside it lived a lady named "Information Please".
One day my mother went out to visit a neighbor, I hit my head against the door while playing. It was painful, but I held back my tears because there was no one home to give sympathy(同情). Then, I noticed the telephone.
Quickly, I unhooked the receiver and held it to my ear. "Information Please," I said into the mouthpiece. Then a clear voice spoke into my ear." Information". "I hurt my head." I spoke into the phone. "Isn't your mother home?" came the question. "Nobody's at home but me." I cried. "Can you open your icebox?" she asked. I said I could. "Then took out a piece of ice and hold it to your head." said the voice.
After that, I called "information Please" each time I met with a problem. When my pet canary(金丝雀)died, I called "Information Please" and told her the sad story. She comforted me, saying softly, "Paul, always remember there are other worlds to sing in."
Later, we moved, but the memories of those conversations never really left. One day when I was alone, I dialed again and said. "Information, Please." A different voice answered, "Information". I asked for Sally. "Are you a friend?" he asked. "Yes, a very old friend. My name is Paul." I answered. "Well, Sally left a message for you. Let me read it to you. It said. 'Paul always remember there are other worlds to sing in.’ I'm sorry to tell you that Sally has..." I stopped him and hung up, tears rolling down silently. I knew what Sally meant.

C
In the past thirty years, bee numbers in the United Kingdom have fallen by nearly a third. The main reasons are climate change and the loss of natural habitats. These changes make it hard for bees to find enough pollen (花粉) and nectar (花蜜). Pollen is important because it gives bees proteins, fats, vitamins, and minerals. Without these nutrients, bees cannot stay healthy. Beekeepers sometimes give bees extra food, but these supplements lack all the nutrients bees need. As a result, the lack of good food has become a serious problem for honeybees.
To solve this, scientists led by Professor Geraldine Wright from the University of Oxford worked to design better food. The challenge was that bees need special nutrients called sterols, which are not easy to make. The team studied which sterols bees need, and then found a way to produce them. They created a type of yeast (酵母) that can make all six sterols. The next step was to prepare the food in a form bees would accept. Since bees are fussy eaters who turn their noses up at unsuitable food, the team made a soft “cookie dough” mixture with bee-friendly ingredients.
The scientists tested the new food in glasshouses. The results were impressive. Colonies that ate the food produced up to fifteen times more young bees than colonies that did not. These young bees also grew into healthy adults. The bees with the new diet lived longer, cared for their young better, and were stronger against diseases. This showed the food could greatly improve bee growth and survival. Wright called it “a huge breakthrough for the species.”
The study has important significance for both bees and people. With this new food, bees will not need to fight so much for wildflowers. This can help bee populations recover and become stronger. Since bees are key pollinators (授粉者) for many crops, protecting them also helps protect human food supplies. If the food is used on a larger scale, it could be a big step toward saving bees and supporting global food security.
28. What can we learn about bee supplements from paragraph 1?
A. They are made from natural pollen and nectar. B. They contain all the nutrients bees need.
C. They cannot fully replace natural food sources. D. They help solve the healthy problem of bees.
29. What does the underlined word “fussy” in paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Quiet. B. Picky. C. Big. D. Fast.
30. What does the glasshouse test suggest about the new food?
A. It suits bees’ tastes better. B. It makes young bees grow faster.
C. It works best in a controlled environment. D. It boosts bees’ population and well-being.
31. What is the potential significance of the study?
A. It encourages people to keep bees. B. It helps safeguard human food sources.
C. It indicates environmental health condition. D. It removes bees’ dependence on wildflowers.
【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. B
【解析】
【导语】文章主要介绍英国蜜蜂数量锐减的成因,牛津团队研发新型营养蜂粮,温室试验效果显著,该研究助力蜂群恢复与全球粮食安全。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Beekeepers sometimes give bees extra food, but these supplements lack all the nutrients bees need.(养蜂人有时会给蜜蜂投喂额外食物,但这些补充饲料缺少蜜蜂所需的全部营养)”可知,人工补充饲料无法提供蜜蜂需要的全部营养,不能完全替代天然花粉花蜜这类天然食物来源。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中的“Since bees are fussy eaters who turn their noses up at unsuitable food, the team made a soft “cookie dough” mixture with bee-friendly ingredients.(因为蜜蜂是fussy食客,会对不合适的食物嗤之以鼻,团队便用适合蜜蜂的原料制作了柔软的曲奇面团状混合物)”可知,蜜蜂会拒绝不合口味的食物,fussy在此表示“挑剔的”,与picky意义相近。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Colonies that ate the food produced up to fifteen times more young bees than colonies that did not. These young bees also grew into healthy adults. The bees with the new diet lived longer, cared for their young better, and were stronger against diseases.(食用该食物的蜂群繁育出的幼蜂数量,最高可达未食用该食物蜂群的十五倍。这些幼蜂也成长为健康的成年蜜蜂。采用这种新食物的蜜蜂寿命更长、照料幼蜂的效果更好,并且抵御疾病的能力更强)”可知,新型饲料能够提升蜜蜂种群数量、改善蜜蜂整体健康状况。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Since bees are key pollinators (授粉者) for many crops, protecting them also helps protect human food supplies.(因为蜜蜂是多种农作物的关键授粉者,保护蜜蜂也有助于保护人类的食物供给)”可知,这项研究能够保护蜜蜂,进而守护人类的食物来源。

Readers on social media are making the beauty of reading more visible than ever with creative and often complicated annotations (批注). Called marginalia, these markups can be detailed, with notes that nearly fill full pages and even match the color of the book’s cover. This practice has started a lively debate: are marginalia a beneficial reading habit, or do they simply ruin books?
But marginalia are far from a modern invention. Centuries ago, Leonardo da Vinci wrote down his thoughts on gravity in the margins (页边空白) of his Codex Arundel, anticipating Galileo’s work by years. In literature, early editions of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice often contain annotations from 19th-century readers, capturing emotional responses that mirror those of today’s readers. More recently, celebrated novelist Ann Patchett released an annotated edition of Tom Lake, allowing her to revisit her writing while offering readers a unique “behind-the-scenes” look into her creative process.
Modern neuroscience (神经科学) now confirms the mental benefits of this age-old habit. A study in Frontiers in Psychology found that handwriting boosts memory and deepens comprehension of the text. Extending this finding, Professor Maryanne Wolf suggests that through marginalia, readers not only absorb the author’s wisdom but also uncover their own insights.
Furthermore, annotation has evolved into a medium for dialogue with the self and a bridge to others. Marcela, a Bookstagrammer, explains. “You can literally see how my views on characters evolve through my notes, and I love being able to look back at my early plot predictions.” Moreover, it is now common for readers to gift annotated books as personalized presents and hunt for secondhand copies bearing the notes of previous readers or even the authors, transforming a finished book into a dynamic, co-created text.
So, if the book-fluencers fill their books with a colorful chaos of thoughts, why not let them? After all, in the pursuit of deeper understanding and connection, a few untidy margins seem a small price to pay.
32. What practice is mentioned in the first paragraph?
A. Writing personal notes in books. B. Sharing helpful reading habits.
C. Posting reading moments online. D. Designing beautiful book covers.
33. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about regarding marginalia?
A. Their modern artistic value. B. Their well-recognized figures.
C. Their use in classic literature. D. Their long-standing presence.
34. Why do some readers buy secondhand annotated books?
A. To deepen test comprehension. B. To collect rare editions.
C. To find out correct predictions. D. To connect with past thoughts.
35. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Meaningful Minds in Messy Margins. B. Personal Response to Annotated Critics.
C. The Neuroscience Behind Marginalia. D. Forgotten Stories Between Annotated Lines.
【答案】32. A 33. D 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要说明了书页批注由来已久,现代研究证实其有助记忆与深度理解。批注既是与自我对话,也搭建读者间的精神桥梁,即便页边凌乱,却承载珍贵思考,值得推崇。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Readers on social media are making the beauty of reading more visible than ever with creative and often complicated annotations (批注).(社交媒体上的读者正通过富有创意且常常复杂的批注,让阅读之美比以往任何时候都更加显而易见)”可知,第一段中提到了在书上写个人笔记。
【33题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“But marginalia are far from a modern invention. Centuries ago, Leonardo da Vinci wrote down his thoughts on gravity in the margins (页边空白) of his Codex Arundel, anticipating Galileo’s work by years. In literature, early editions of Jane Austen’s Pride and Prejudice often contain annotations from 19th-century readers, capturing emotional responses that mirror those of today’s readers. More recently, celebrated novelist Ann Patchett released an annotated edition of Tom Lake, allowing her to revisit her writing while offering readers a unique “behind-the-scenes” look into her creative process.(但旁注并非现代才有的发明。几个世纪前,达·芬奇就在他的《阿伦德尔手稿》页边空白处写下关于重力的思考,比伽利略早了数年。在文学领域,简·奥斯汀《傲慢与偏见》的早期版本中常夹有19世纪读者的批注,记录下当时读者的情感反应,这些情感与今日读者如出一辙。近年来,著名小说家安·帕切特推出了《汤姆·莱克》的注释版,不仅让她得以重新审视自己的创作,也向读者提供了独特的“幕后”视角,展现她创作过程中的点滴心迹)”可知,第二段主要讨论了旁注长期存在。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Moreover, it is now common for readers to gift annotated books as personalized presents and hunt for secondhand copies bearing the notes of previous readers or even the authors, transforming a finished book into a dynamic, co-created text.(此外,如今读者常将注释书籍作为个性化礼物赠送,并寻找带有前读者甚至作者笔记的二手书,从而将一本完成的书转变为一个充满互动、共同创作的文本)”可知,一些读者会购买二手的注释书籍是为了与过去的思考建立联系。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Readers on social media are making the beauty of reading more visible than ever with creative and often complicated annotations (批注). Called marginalia, these markups can be detailed, with notes that nearly fill full pages and even match the color of the book’s cover. This practice has started a lively debate: are marginalia a beneficial reading habit, or do they simply ruin books?(社交媒体上的读者们凭借富有创意、密密麻麻的批注,让阅读之美前所未有地展现出来。这类页边笔记被称为旁注,内容详尽,批注几乎写满页面,配色甚至还会搭配书封。这一行为引发热议:批注究竟是有益的阅读习惯,还是只会损毁书本?)”结合文章主要说明了书页批注由来已久,现代研究证实其有助记忆与深度理解。批注既是与自我对话,也搭建读者间的精神桥梁,即便页边凌乱,却承载珍贵思考,值得推崇。可知,A选项“在杂乱的页边留有深意的心灵”最符合文章标题。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
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。
Have you ever experienced such moments: a warm smile from a stranger, a brief chat with someone waiting in line, or a simple wave to a neighbor you hardly know? These tiny interactions among strangers and familiar faces alike are called “microconnections”. ____36____ Yet their importance goes far beyond our awareness.
When people have a microconnection with a stranger, the levels of dopamine (多巴胺) in their brain increase while the body’s stress chemical decreases. The result is a greater sense of well-being. ____37____ They enable both parties to gain a more positive mindset and greater relaxation.
Another effect of these casual interactions lies in their influence on how you perceive reality and respond to novel ideas. ____38____ Thus brief contacts with them can offer brand-new spiritual enrichment and broaden your perspectives on the world. Interestingly, research shows people may actually be more open to considering opposing viewpoints when talking to strangers than to close family members, which lays a solid foundation for in-depth and original idea exchanges.
____39____ They build public trust, which in turn makes social communities more closely connected. As Sandstrom, a well-known psychologist, explains, “That sense of community is a huge thing we get from talking to strangers-it’s just feeling there’s this shared humanity and that we are seen by other people and valued by other people.” This feeling helps people recognize themselves as part of a community.
In a world where people often feel disconnected, these small moments remind us of the hidden bonds between ordinary individuals. A microconnection may bear lasting fruit. ____40____
A. They tend to slip our attention.
B. Microconnections are also two-way streets.
C. People are eager for connection with others.
D. Brief exchanges affect more than just the two individuals.
E. Such encounters bring unnoticed changes to the inner world.
F. Those who you meet by chance possess diverse life experiences.
G. So next time do not hesitate to offer a smile to a person around you.
【答案】36. A 37. B 38. F 39. D 40. G
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了何为微人际联结,阐述其能舒缓压力、开阔眼界、凝聚社群等诸多益处,呼吁人们主动送出善意,建立温暖的日常小联结。
【36题详解】
空格后出现转折词Yet,表示前后语义相反。后文“Yet their importance goes far beyond our awareness.( 但它们的重要性远超我们的认知范围。)”明确指出“它们的重要性远超我们的认知”,因此前文必然是说“我们容易忽视这些微连接”。A选项“They tend to slip our attention.( 它们往往会从我们的注意力中溜走。)”与后文形成完美的转折逻辑,且“slip our attention”与后文“goes far beyond our awareness”构成同义呼应。
【37题详解】
空格前“When people have a microconnection with a stranger, the levels of dopamine (多巴胺) in their brain increase while the body’s stress chemical decreases. The result is a greater sense of well-being. (当人们与陌生人建立微小的联系时,他们大脑中的多巴胺水平会升高,而身体中的压力化学物质则会减少。其结果是,人们会感到更加愉悦。)”讲述了微连接对个人的生理和心理益处(增加多巴胺、减少压力、提升幸福感),空格后“They enable both parties to gain a more positive mindset and greater relaxation.( 它们使双方获得更积极的心态和更大的放松。)”则提到“它们能让双方都获得更积极的心态和更大的放松”。这里的“both parties(双方)”是关键线索,说明微连接的好处是双向的。B选项“Microconnections are also two-way streets(.微连接也是双向道。)”恰好起到了承上启下的作用,从个人受益过渡到双方受益。
【38题详解】
空格后出现因果连词Thus,表示前文是后文的原因。后文“Thus brief contacts with them can offer brand-new spiritual enrichment and broaden your perspectives on the world.( 因此,与他们进行短暂的接触就能带来全新的精神滋养,并拓宽您对世界的看法。)”指出“与他们的短暂接触能带来全新的精神滋养,拓宽你对世界的看法”,那么为什么陌生人能带来新的视角呢?F选项“Those who you meet by chance possess diverse life experiences.( 那些你偶然遇到的人拥有多样的人生经历。)”给出了合理的解释:正是因为经历不同,他们才能提供我们所没有的视角和体验。
【39题详解】
空格位于第四段段首,是该段的主题句。后文内容“They build public trust, which in turn makes social communities more closely connected. As Sandstrom, a well-known psychologist, explains, “That sense of community is a huge thing we get from talking to strangers-it’s just feeling there’s this shared humanity and that we are seen by other people and valued by other people.” This feeling helps people recognize themselves as part of a community.( 它们建立了公众信任,这反过来又使社会群体更加紧密地联系在一起。正如著名心理学家桑德斯特伦所解释的那样:“这种社区感是我们与陌生人交谈时所获得的重要东西——就是感觉存在着这种共同的人性,感觉他人看到了我们、重视我们。”这种感觉有助于人们认识到自己是这个社区的一部分。)”从个人层面上升到了社会层面,讲述微连接如何建立公共信任、让社区联系更紧密。D选项“Brief exchanges affect more than just the two individuals.( 短暂的交流影响的不仅仅是两个人。)”准确概括了这一转变,从个人影响过渡到社会影响,统领全段内容。
【40题详解】
空格位于文章结尾,是对全文的总结和呼吁。前文“In a world where people often feel disconnected, these small moments remind us of the hidden bonds between ordinary individuals. A microconnection may bear lasting fruit. (在一个人们常常感到彼此疏远的世界里,这些小小的时刻提醒着我们普通个体之间隐藏的联系。一个微小的联系可能会产生持久的成果。)”已经全面阐述了微连接的多重益处,结尾自然应该发出行动倡议。G选项“So next time do not hesitate to offer a smile to a person around you.( 所以下次不要犹豫,向你身边的人微笑吧。)”与文章开头提到的“陌生人的温暖微笑”相呼应,是一个自然且有力的结尾。

【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了贵州少数民族传统文化受城镇化冲击,政府推出惠民项目,村民全程参与规划。项目改善村民住房,资金分配公开公平,也提升了当地人保护本土文化的自觉与自信。
【56题详解】
考查名词复数形式。句意:这些村庄拥有独特而悠久的传统,包括节庆、歌曲和舞蹈。tradition是可数名词,后文列举了节日、歌舞等多种传统习俗,且前面没有不定冠词限定,因此用复数形式traditions。
【57题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:在政府资金支持下,一个项目在16个县展开,重点在于提升能力、改善公共设施以及保护文化遗产。分析句子可知,设空处引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是 a project(事物),从句中缺少主语,且为非限制性定语从句,只能用关系代词which 引导,不可用that。
【58题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:为更有效地利用投资,村民们参与了项目的选址和设计全过程。分析句子可知,此处作目的状语,意为“为了提升资金的使用效益”,用不定式to promote表目的,句首单词首字母大写。
【59题详解】
考查名词。句意:为更有效地利用投资,村民们参与了项目的选址和设计全过程。空格后有并列的名词design,且前面有名词project 作定语,因此需将动词select变为名词 selection,构成 project selection and design(项目的遴选与设计)。
【60题详解】
考查连词。句意:它没有自来水,也没有独立卫生间。句中 no running water是否定结构,否定句中表示并列的“和”要用 or,相当于and no,意为“既没有自来水,也没有独立卫生间”。
【61题详解】
考查形容词。句意:利用项目的资金,他建造了一座新的两层木屋,不仅配备了现代化的设施,而且还可以作为游客的家庭住宿。修饰名词 house需用形容词,wood的形容词形式为wooden,意为“木制的”。
【62题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:“申请由选举出来的村民进行审查,结果会公开展示五天,”干容村村长李胜生解释说。分析句子可知,此处为非谓语动词作定语修饰villagers,villagers与elect之间是被动关系,意为“被推选出来的村民”,用过去分词elected作前置定语。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意:申请由选举出来的村民进行审查,结果会公开展示五天,”干容村村长李胜生解释说。修饰动词 was displayed 需用副词,public的副词形式为publicly,意为 “公开地”。
【64题详解】
考查动词时态和语态。句意:贫困家庭得到了优先考虑。主语 Priority与 give之间是被动关系,且描述项目过往的执行规则,用一般过去时的被动语态;priority为第三人称单数,所以谓语动词为was given。
【65题详解】
考查冠词。句意:贵州项目管理办公室主任李光表示:“该项目提高了当地社区对自己文化遗产的认识,提升了他们的自豪感和自信心,并鼓励了对其的保护和保存。”此处 encouragement为抽象名词具体化,表“一种激励”,且 encouragement 以元音音素开头,故用不定冠词an。

Should We Add Group Fun Events to the Next Sports Meet?
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文:
Should We Add Group Fun Events to the Next Sports Meet?
I strongly support this idea.
First, fun team sports can bring students closer, which helps build a friendly class atmosphere. I believe that cooperation in games will make our class more united. Second, these events are suitable for everyone, including students who are not good at traditional races. What matters most is that everyone can join in and enjoy themselves instead of just watching. Besides, such events can reduce pressure and make the sports meet more colorful.
I hope that our school will take this suggestion and create a more wonderful sports meet for all of us.

第二节(满分25分)
67. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My dad was a man of few words. Growing up, I only had short conversations with him. He worked long hours as a mechanic, his hands always covered with grease (机油). I loved him, but I often felt like we lived in two different worlds. I was buried in books and dreams of college; he was buried under cars and the weight of making ends meet.
The silence between us widened into a gap during my junior year. I had a burning desire to attend a creative writing summer program at a famous university across the country. It was expensive and, in his eyes, impractical. “Wasting money on dreams,” he said one evening, not looking up from the newspaper. That was his only comment. I felt very angry.
The following Saturday, I planned to spend the day studying at the library, escaping the heavy silence at home. But as I walked towards the bus stop, I realized I’d forgotten my notebook. Annoyed, I turned back. As I approached our small garage, I heard a strange noise. Looking through the slightly open door, I stopped dead in my tracks.
There was my dad, bent over his old workbench. But he wasn’t fixing a car. Around him were pieces of wood, fine sandpaper, and small tools I’d never seen before. In his grease-worn hands, he held a piece of polished mahogany (红木), carefully carving it into the shape of a fountain pen. On his workbench lay a worn-out copy of my favorite novel, The Catcher in the Rye, which I had carelessly left in the living room.
He was painstakingly testing the pen he was making — dipping its unfinished nib (笔尖) into ink, copying a sentence from the book onto a piece of paper. Then he would stop, turn the piece of mahogany in his hand, and carve a little more.
He wasn’t just making a pen; he was trying to build a bridge into my world, using the only tools he knew — his hands and his labor. My anger became a deep sense of shock and shame.
注意:1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
I quietly pushed the door open and stepped inside.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
My dad handed me the roughly-carved pen, his eyes still avoiding mine.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 I quietly pushed the door open and stepped inside. The creak made him freeze, his broad shoulders tensing. Slowly, he turned, and for the first time, I saw him look vulnerable — grease-stained hands hovering awkwardly over the unfinished pen, his weathered face flushing. “I wanted to give you something proper for your writing,” he mumbled. “Maybe you’d write home.” His calloused fingers traced the mahogany. “Not much schooling. I don’t understand the books. But I know how to make things last.” The sun caught the golden wood shavings.
My dad handed me the roughly-carved pen, his eyes still avoiding mine. The wood felt warm in my palm, carrying the heat of his labor. “Dad,” I whispered, “the program — I don’t need to go.” He finally looked at me, his dark eyes glistening. “You go,” he said firmly. “A man needs dreams. I just wanted you to know I support you.” That evening, we sat on the garage steps, talking until deep night — about his first car, my stories, the future he never had but was building for me.
