I know you’ve all been working hard recently, especially with the wedding last weekend and the trade fair straight after that. And now we have only three days to prepare for the birthday party this weekend. At the moment, we don’t have exact numbers of guests. And though we usually receive groups of less than 50, we will have quite a few more than that, but we won’t go over the maximum of 100. So what time will the event start? Well, the invitation says guests should arrive between 7:30 and 7:45. But our experience is that there are always a few who like to arrive early, so we’ll expect the first people at 7:15. As the numbers are quite large, this will certainly be the case. Food will be served at around 8:30. And then depending on how long the meal takes, the entertainment will start about two hours later. So let’s get started on the preparations. I’ll have the detailed assignments sent out within an hour. Thanks, everyone, and let’s make this another memorable celebration. 第二部分 阅读(共两节,满分40分) 第一节(共11小题;每小题2.5分,满分27.5分) 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Many people see a date on a food package and think the food must be unsafe after that date. In fact, food product dating is usually about quality, not safety. Manufacturers provide dates mainly to help consumers and retailers (零售商) decide when food is of best quality. If the date passes during home storage, a product should still be safe and wholesome if handled properly, until spoilage is evident. Common phrases on food labels include: Phrase What it means Best if Used By The product will have its best flavor or quality by this date. It is not a purchase or safety date. Sell-By This tells the store how long to display the product for sale. It is not a safety date. Use-By This is the last date recommended for using the product while at peak quality. It is not a safety date except for infant formula. Freeze-By This tells when a product should be frozen to maintain peak quality. It is not a purchase or safety date. Food that has passed the date should still be checked before eating. Spoiled foods may develop an off smell, flavor or texture. If these signs appear, the food should not be eaten. Confusion over food dates can cause consumers to throw away wholesome food. Understanding the labels helps people judge food more carefully and reduce waste. 21. What are dates on food packages mainly about? A. Delivery time. B. Food safety. C. Production dates. D. Best quality. 22. If you are a retailer, which phrase should you pay attention to? A. Use-By. B. Sell-By. C. Freeze-By. D. Best if Used By. 23. What should consumers do with food after the label dates pass? A. Change its package. B. Add some flavor. C. Throw it away at once. D. Check its condition. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了食品包装上日期的真正含义，并解释了常见标签用语的具体含义，帮助消费者正确理解日期标签以减少食品浪费。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段第二、三句“In fact, food product dating is usually about quality, not safety. Manufacturers provide dates mainly to help consumers and retailers decide when food is of best quality. (事实上，食品日期标注通常关乎品质，而非安全。生产商提供日期主要是为了帮助消费者和零售商判断食品何时处于最佳品质。)”可知，食品包装上的日期主要涉及的是品质问题而非安全问题，生产商提供这些日期是为了帮助判断食品的最佳品质时间。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据表格中Sell-By对应的解释“This tells the store how long to display the product for sale. (这告诉商店该产品应该上架销售多长时间。)”可知，Sell-By这一标签是面向零售商的，用于告知商店该产品应展示销售多长时间。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段前两句“Food that has passed the date should still be checked before eating. Spoiled foods may develop an off smell, flavor or texture. (过了标注日期的食品在食用前仍然应该进行检查。变质的食品可能会产生异味、怪味或变质。)”可知，食品过了标签日期后，消费者应先检查是否有变质迹象。 B London, Paris, Milan ... and now Oswestry, Shropshire, where a pioneering shared wardrobe (衣柜) project means you can visit the library and leave with a fresh outfit. Lizzie Dibble hopes her clothes lending project could help bring in new footfall to the UK’s struggling libraries, as well as introducing readers to the romance of secondhand fashion. “There’s something about the library,” she said. “It’s not a luxury shop or the busy, noisy high street. We want this to feel welcoming and accessible to everybody.” Dibble created With Love From ... in 2023, initially to exchange clothes with friends and family. Interest grew along with donations, and the project soon added sewing workshops, talks about sustainability and a repair service. The shared wardrobe has now moved to Oswestry library, where it is run by volunteers. There are around 400 pieces in the growing collection, which can be checked out via a barcode for three weeks and renewed just like a book. Each item is labelled with the name of the person who donated it. “It adds to the idea that preloved clothing is more special, because it has that history,” said Dibble. Recent years have seen a boom in rental apps, which offer fashion-lovers a way to make money from the priced items in their wardrobe, but the library offers a very different borrowing experience — hands-on, inclusive and free. Bhavini Mirza, a trainee textiles teacher, says it lets her look around without worrying about the price tag and see and feel the clothes in person. The current collection is mostly womenswear, but Dibble is keen to serve more groups, including people who need workwear and teenagers looking for clothes for special occasions. The project also gives people a greater respect for clothing. Nothing goes to landfill: tired or damaged clothes are saved for workshops, where design students can turn them into something new. Dibble is dreaming big, with plans to roll out a network of shared wardrobes across more libraries. For now, she is happy to keep clothes in circulation. “When you see someone pick up something you used to own and say, ‘I love this!’, I get goosebumps,” she says. 24. What does Dibble hope the project will do for libraries? A. Bring in new visitors. B. Start clothing sales. C. Open quiet luxury shops. D. Spread secondhand fashion. 25. What can we learn about With Love From ... in paragraph 3? A. It is set up to sell cheap clothes. B. It provides books for clothing lovers. C. It has developed more related services. D. It records each item’s history with a barcode. 26. What makes the library wardrobe different from rental apps? A. Quick offline booking. B. Direct physical borrowing. C. Free training for fashion-lovers. D. Growing popularity among teachers. 27. What impact does the project have? A. It helps libraries compete with rental apps. B. It leads to a decline in local clothing sales. C. It encourages people to value and reuse clothes. D. It makes workshops popular among design students. 【答案】24. A 25. C 26. B 27. C 【解析】 【导语】主要说明了Lizzie在图书馆开办共享衣物借阅项目，配套缝纫、修补等服务，免费线下借衣，减少衣物浪费，她计划将模式推广至更多图书馆。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Lizzie Dibble hopes her clothes lending project could help bring in new footfall to the UK’s struggling libraries, as well as introducing readers to the romance of secondhand fashion. (莉齐·迪布尔希望她的服装借阅项目能够为英国日益困难的图书馆带来新的客流，同时让读者体验二手时尚的魅力。)”可知，迪布尔希望这个项目能为图书馆吸引新的访客。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Interest grew along with donations, and the project soon added sewing workshops, talks about sustainability and a repair service. (随着捐赠不断增加，人们的兴趣也同步增长，项目很快又增加了缝纫工作坊、可持续发展讲座以及维修服务。)”可知，“With Love From...”发展了更多相关服务。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Recent years have seen a boom in rental apps, which offer fashion-lovers a way to make money from the priced items in their wardrobe, but the library offers a very different borrowing experience — hands-on, inclusive and free. (近年来，租赁应用程序蓬勃发展，为时尚爱好者提供了通过出租衣橱中明码标价的物品赚钱的机会。而图书馆则提供一种截然不同的借阅体验——可亲手触摸的、包容性强且完全免费。)”可知，图书馆的衣橱可现场亲手挑选实物衣物。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“The project also gives people a greater respect for clothing. Nothing goes to landfill: tired or damaged clothes are saved for workshops, where design students can turn them into something new. (该项目也让人们更加重视服装。所有衣物都不会被丢弃：无论是旧的还是损坏的，都会被保存下来用于工作坊，设计专业的学生可以将它们改造成全新的作品。)”可知，该项目鼓励人们重视并重复使用衣物。 C A new study points to a key bone-strengthening mechanism at work in the body, which could be targeted to treat osteoporosis (骨质疏松). The study, led by researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany and Shandong University in China, identified the cell receptor GPR133 as being crucial to bone density. Current treatments, such as calcium and vitamin D supplements or hormone therapies, can have side effects or limited long-term efficacy. The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. The team ran tests on mice in which GPR133 was either absent or could be activated using a chemical called AP503. In experiments, in the absence of GPR133, the mice showed weaker bones and lower bone mass, similar to osteoporosis. However, when the receptor was present and activated by AP503, bone production and strength improved, significantly improving bone volume and strength even in an osteoporosis model. The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. GPR133 appears to regulate the activity of osteoblasts — the cells that build new bone. When GPR133 is activated, it triggers (触发) a cellular signaling pathway that promotes osteoblast function and bone mineralization. This means the receptor helps accelerate the process of bone remodeling, where old bone is replaced by new bone. The discovery that a new receptor like GPR133 responds to mechanical forces, such as physical strain on bones, adds a new piece to the puzzle of how bones adapt to stress. In essence, GPR133 acts as a sensor that, when stimulated, tells bone-building cells to get to work. If an equivalent therapy can be developed for humans, it could offer a way to increase bone mass and reduce break risk without some of the drawbacks of existing drugs. The Leipzig team’s findings, published in a leading scientific journal, mark a significant step toward treating bone loss diseases. As researchers continue to reveal the role of GPR133, there is renewed optimism that stronger bones in old age could become a reality for many. 28. What happens to mice without GPR133? A. Their bone volume rises rapidly. B. They suffer poor bone strength. C. Their bone production improved. D. They create AP503 inside bodies. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How GPR133 works to help rebuild bones. B. The specific functions of bone-building cells. C. The response of GPR133 to mechanical forces. D. How the physical forces affect our bone health. 30. What do we know about the findings? A. They mainly explain age-related bone loss. B. They have provided patients with a safer treatment. C. They may lead to a promising way to treat bone loss. D. They replaced existing drugs to treat humans’ osteoporosis. 31. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A medical product review. B. A biology textbook. C. A handbook on bone protection. D. A health science article. 【答案】28. B 29. A 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了一项关于GPR133细胞受体如何影响骨骼健康的新研究，并探讨了该发现为治疗骨质疏松等骨骼疾病提供新可能的药物靶点。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段倒数第二句“In experiments, in the absence of GPR133, the mice showed weaker bones and lower bone mass, similar to osteoporosis. (在实验中，缺乏GPR133的小鼠表现出骨骼较弱和骨量较低，类似于骨质疏松。)”可知，没有GPR133的小鼠骨骼强度和骨量都较差。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。本段第一句提出核心观点，即GPR133具有作为药物靶点的潜力。第二至四句解释机制基础，先指出GPR133调控成骨细胞这一作用对象，再说明其通过触发信号通路来促进成骨功能和骨矿化，最后归结到加速骨重塑这一生理效果。第五句将话题从具体机制提升至科学意义层面，点明该发现为骨骼适应应力的研究填补了理论空白。第六句用“传感器”这一通俗比喻对全段内容进行形象化总结。全段主要讲述了GPR133助力骨骼重建的机制。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段第一句“The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. (这项新研究表明GPR133可能成为更好解决方案的药物靶点。)”以及文章第四段第二句“The Leipzig team’s findings, published in a leading scientific journal, mark a significant step toward treating bone loss diseases. (莱比锡团队的研究结果发表在一本顶级科学期刊上，标志着在治疗骨流失疾病方面迈出了重要一步。)”可知，这些发现为骨流失疾病的治疗带来了希望，它们可能带来一种有前景的骨流失治疗方法。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文介绍了一项关于GPR133与骨骼健康关系的前沿科学研究，涉及动物实验、细胞机制和未来治疗可能性，语言客观严谨，既涉及医学健康话题，又具备科学研究的特征，最有可能选自一篇科普类文章。 D A small criticism from a friend or a careless comment at home may lead to a reaction far stronger than the situation requires. Such moments are often described as “overreacting”. But psychologists suggest these reactions may not simply show a bad temper. They may be the brain’s way of responding to a perceived threat. According to Psychology Today, overreacting is a survival-based emotional response where the brain perceives a threat, causing a reaction disproportionate(不相称的)to the current event. Rooted in past painful experiences, high stress, or unmet emotional needs, it is often a defence mechanism rather than drama. Overreaction happens when immediate emotional needs are threatened or when the present situation echoes past pains. Research suggests that our brain acts as a pattern-matching and pattern-generating machine. When things are not already in patterns, it tries to make sense of what it sees by fitting them into familiar shapes. Previous experiences are used as a shortcut for understanding and interpreting new information. Alarm bells may go off if a person or situation reminds us of previous contacts who caused us pain. The roots of overreaction may begin early in life. Researchers from Oregon State University have found that genetics play a role in negative emotionality, or the tendency to become upset easily. Parents who overreact are more likely to have children who act out and become upset easily. The link was especially clear in children who were already more likely, by nature, to react negatively, even when they were raised in a relatively calm environment. Yet these early influences do not mean our reactions are fixed. In a world filled with challenges and disappointments, identifying factors that trigger anger or anxiety can prepare us for a more conscious reaction. When emotion rises, deep breathing can activate the parasympathetic(副交感神经)nervous system and help us respond thoughtfully rather than impulsively. Regular relaxation may make emotional meltdowns less likely, turning overreaction into something we can notice and manage. 32. According to the psychologists, overreacting is probably ______. A. a thoughtful response B. a protective reaction C. an intentional dramatic act D. a simple sign of bad temper 33. What does the underlined phrase “Alarm bells may go off” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. The brain may start to sense danger. B. Past experiences may help form patterns. C. New information may be understood quickly. D. The painful memories will control one’s mind. 34. What does “the link” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Parenting and children’s nature. B. Early experience and bad temper. C. Genes and negative emotionality. D. Environment and negative feelings. 35. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To analyze overreaction and solutions. B. To prove the importance of overreaction. C. To classify different patterns of overreaction. D. To tell reasons and influences of overreaction. 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. B 35. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了过度反应的心理学成因，包括大脑机制、遗传与环境影响，并提出自我调节的方法。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中“Rooted in past painful experiences, high stress, or unmet emotional needs, it is often a defence mechanism rather than drama.(植根于过去的痛苦经历、高压或未满足的情感需求，它通常是一种防御机制，而非戏剧化的表现)”可知，心理学家认为过度反应本质上是一种保护性的防御反应。 【33题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段中“Previous experiences are used as a shortcut for understanding and interpreting new information. Alarm bells may go off if a person or situation reminds us of previous contacts who caused us pain.(过往经历被用作理解和解读新信息的捷径。如果某个人或某种情境让我们想起曾经伤害过我们的人，警报就可能会响起)”，并结合前文提到大脑会将新场景匹配过往经历模式的内容可推知，“Alarm bells may go off”意思是当现实情境与过去的痛苦经历相似时，大脑会像拉响警报一样，启动对潜在危险的感知。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段中“Parents who overreact are more likely to have children who act out and become upset easily. The link was especially clear in children who were already more likely, by nature, to react negatively, even when they were raised in a relatively calm environment.(过度反应的父母更有可能养育出容易闹脾气、情绪易崩溃的孩子。The link在那些天生就更容易产生负面反应的儿童身上表现得尤为明显，即使他们在相对平静的环境中长大。)”可知，前一句指出“父母过度反应”会导致“孩子容易情绪失控”，后一句进一步说明这种关联在“天生易怒”的孩子身上更突出。因此，the link指代的是“父母的教养方式（早期经历）”与“孩子的坏脾气”之间的因果关系。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。综合全文，文章前三段分析了过度反应的定义、大脑机制及成因（遗传与环境），最后一段提出了通过深呼吸、放松训练等方式进行管理和调节的解决方案。因此，文章的主要目的是分析过度反应这一现象并提供应对策略。 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。 When someone reaches out to you with an emotionally charged text, responding appropriately is never an easy task. Lacking facial cues and vocal tones, written messages often fail to convey genuine feelings accurately. Many people are at a loss about how to convey sincere care through written words. ____36____ It helps build trust and makes the other person feel truly seen and valued. Learning to listen patiently stands as the primary principle in such communication. Rather than rushing to offer practical advice the moment you receive the message, you ought to prioritize emotional recognition first. Most people in low spirits do not expect instant solutions to their troubles. ____37____ Any form of criticism or casual denial of their feelings will only push them further away, damaging the connection between you. ____38____ People tend to express inner frustration in vague and indirect ways online. Without body language or tone, even simple messages can be misunderstood easily. It is therefore necessary to adopt subtle ways to confirm their true thoughts. Only by figuring out their real state of mind can you deliver targeted comfort instead of empty remarks. In the course of communication, keep the dialogue centered on their inner experience. It is fairly easy for people to shift topics to their own similar sufferings unconsciously. This kind of behavior can make the other person feel ignored and unimportant. ____39____ Brief resonance is acceptable, yet endless self-expression is totally inappropriate. Some widely accepted comforting phrases actually have the opposite effects in such situations. Those stereotyped (老套的) words sound indifferent and cold. They may make others think you are not taking their feelings seriously. ____40____ Instead, try to put yourself in their position and speak from sincere understanding. A. Mastering proper response skills matters a lot. B. It is wise to solve practical problems immediately. C. They simply need sincere understanding and spiritual comfort. D. Misinterpretation is quite common in text-based communication. E. You are supposed to emphasize less on your own past experiences. F. Such comfort tends to make people feel their pain is underestimated. G. Face-to-face conversation is regarded as the most effective way of comfort. 【答案】36. A 37. C 38. D 39. E 40. F 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了在文本沟通中如何恰当地回应他人情绪化信息，提出了倾听优先、避免误解、聚焦对方感受、慎用套话等沟通原则。 【36题详解】 前文“Many people are at a loss about how to convey sincere care through written words. (许多人对如何通过文字表达真诚的关心感到不知所措。)”表明人们在文字沟通中缺乏有效的回应方法；后文“It helps build trust and makes the other person feel truly seen and valued. (这有助于建立信任，让对方感到真正被看见和被重视。)”中的“It”应指代空处提到的某种做法，且该做法的效果是建立信任和让对方感到被重视。A选项“Mastering proper response skills matters a lot. (掌握恰当的回应技巧非常重要。)”承接前文，指出避免不知所措的方法是掌握回应技巧，并且这很重要；与后文“这有助于建立信任”形成因果关系，正因为掌握技巧很重要，所以它能带来信任和被重视的效果。 【37题详解】 前文“Most people in low spirits do not expect instant solutions to their troubles. (大多数情绪低落的人并不指望他们的烦恼能立即得到解决。)”指出大多数人情绪低落时并不指望他们的烦恼能立即得到解决，空处应承接前文，说明此时人们希望获得什么。C选项“They simply need sincere understanding and spiritual comfort. (他们只是需要真诚的理解和精神上的慰藉。)”直接给出他们想要是感受上的认同；后文“Any form of criticism or casual denial of their feelings will only push them further away, damaging the connection between you. (任何形式的批评或随意否定他们的感受只会把他们推得更远，损害你们之间的联系。)”则进一步说明否定对方感受的负面后果，C选项承接前文，后文又写明了不做C选项所说之事的后果，前后衔接紧密。 【38题详解】 后文“People tend to express inner frustration in vague and indirect ways online. Without body language or tone, even simple messages can be misunderstood easily. (人们倾向于在网上以模糊和间接的方式表达内心的挫败感。没有肢体语言和语调，即使简单的信息也很容易被误解。)”说明网络表达具有模糊性，缺乏非语言线索导致误解。D选项“Misinterpretation is quite common in text-based communication. (在基于文字的沟通中，误解相当常见。)”中的“Misinterpretation”与后文的“vague and indirect”及后文的“misunderstood”形成语义呼应，能够引起下文。 【39题详解】 前文“It is fairly easy for people to shift topics to their own similar sufferings unconsciously. This kind of behavior can make the other person feel ignored and unimportant. (人们很容易不自觉地就把话题转到自己类似的痛苦经历上。这种行为会让对方感到被忽视和不重要。)”指出过度谈论自身经历会伤害对方感受，E选项“You are supposed to emphasize less on your own past experiences. (你应该少强调自己过去的经历。)”直接针对这种做法提出建议，后文“Brief resonance is acceptable, yet endless self-expression is totally inappropriate. (简短的共鸣是可以接受的，但无休止的自我表达则完全不合适。)”是对E选项所提做法的具体建议及点明过度强调自己的后果。 【40题详解】 前文“Those stereotyped (老套的) words sound indifferent and cold. They may make others think you are not taking their feelings seriously. (那些老套的话语听起来冷漠无情。它们可能让别人觉得你没有认真对待他们的感受。)”指出套话的负面影响。F选项“Such comfort tends to make people feel their pain is underestimated. (这种安慰往往让人感到自己的痛苦被低估了。)”中的“Such comfort”指代前文的“Those stereotyped (老套的) words”，并解释了这些套话会产生相反效果是因为它们让对方感到痛苦被低估，从而引出后文“Instead, try to put yourself in their position and speak from sincere understanding. (相反，试着站在他们的角度，从真诚的理解出发去说话。)”的替代方案。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 A few years ago, I had a serious knee injury and needed surgery.

I lay on the sofa, watching Animal Planet, when my friend Harley called. “Hey, Adam. You have a GoPro camera, right? Can you film the foam (泡沫) party this Saturday?” I had never filmed a party or anything else before, but I thought, why not help a friend out? Any party with foam must be fun anyway. “Okay, I’ll give it a try,” I said. I had no idea that this simple request would soon change my whole life. A few days later, I finished the short video and invited my wife, Ashleigh, to watch it in my room. I stared at her face as she watched the party scenes on the screen. She smiled from ear to ear the whole time. When the video ended, I turned off the screen and asked nervously, “So, what do you think?” “Adam, you’re so talented!” she said excitedly. “You turned a small-town party into something that looks like a big city event. You must make good use of this talent. No more excuses!” As she walked to the door, she turned around and said playfully, “Don’t come out until you’ve chosen a film course!” After she left the room, I sat alone, starting to think about a new life. I was really scared to go to film school as an adult. Ashleigh believed in me, and my video had already got 4,000 views online. However, negative thoughts kept coming into my mind. “You’re too old to keep up with young students,” “You’re not good enough,” “They know much more than you.” I wanted to succeed, but I feared failure more. I preferred my stable job to taking risks. Quitting my well-paid job to study film was a huge risk. I worried about being laughed at if I failed. It seemed easier to stay in an unhappy job than to chase my dream. Thankfully, Ashleigh never gave up on me. 注意： 1. 词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With her encouragement, I finally took the first step and enrolled in film school. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Half a year later, I got a chance to film for a famous music festival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】参考范文 With her encouragement, I finally took the first step and enrolled in film school. Stepping into the classroom on the first day, I felt out of place surrounded by energetic twenty-year-olds. My hands shook as I fumbled with the fancy editing software, and those old negative voices whispered again — You’re too old. You don’t belong here. But Ashleigh’s words echoed in my mind. I stayed after class every day, rewatching tutorials and practicing shot after shot. Slowly, the camera began to feel like an extension of my hands. My professor noticed my progress and praised my unique eye for storytelling. By the end of the first semester, I had not only caught up but was also topping my class. For the first time in years, I felt truly alive. Half a year later, I got a chance to film for a famous music festival. When the email popped up, my heart raced — this was the big break I’d dared not dream of. The festival grounds were massive, the crowds electric, and for a moment I froze. Then I thought of that small foam party, of Ashleigh pushing me out the door, and I lifted my camera. For three days, I chased light and emotion through the crowds, capturing every roar of the crowd and quiet backstage moment. When the final video was released, it went viral overnight. Offers poured in from bands and event companies. That night, I held Ashleigh tight and thanked her for seeing in me what I couldn’t see myself. What started as a simple favor had truly changed my whole life — and I learned that it’s never too late to start chasing the person you were meant to be. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述作者偶然帮朋友拍摄派对视频，意外展现影视拍摄天赋。在妻子的鼓励下，作者萌生追梦念头，却因年龄差距、害怕失败、担心被嘲笑而极度自卑、不敢尝试。在妻子的不断支持下，作者勇敢追梦、逆袭成长，最终收获事业机遇、实现人生蜕变的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者进入电影学院后十分自卑落后，凭借日夜刻苦练习不断进步，最终赶超同学、收获认可。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写作者获得大型音乐节拍摄机会，用心完成作品并一举走红，感恩妻子鼓励，领悟追梦真谛。 2. 续写线索：入校求学——心生自卑——刻苦练习——赶超众人——获得机遇——用心拍摄——一举成名——感悟人生 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①练习：practice/train ②涌入：pour in/flood in 情绪类 ①局促：out of place/awkward ②精力充沛：energetic/vigorous 【点睛】[高分句型1] Stepping into the classroom on the first day, I felt out of place surrounded by energetic twenty-year-olds.（运用了现在分词短语作状语） [高分句型2] What started as a simple favor had truly changed my whole life — and I learned that it’s never too late to start chasing the person you were meant to be.（运用了what引导的主语从句以及that引导的宾语从句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $临沂市高二教学质量检测考试英语试题听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上。听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到客观题答题卡上。请看听力部分第一节，第一节听下面五段录音，每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的ABC3个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。现在你有5秒钟的时间阅读第一小题的有关内容。听下面的录音，回答第一小题。Dad, can I turn on the air conditioning and feeling hot market?

But our experiences that there are always a few who like to arrive early, so we will expect the first people at seven fifteen. As the numbers are quite large, this will certainly be the case. Food will be served at around eight thirty, and then depending on how long the meal takes, the entertainment will start about two hours later. So let's get started on the preparations. I'll have the detailed assignment sent out within an hour. Thanks, everyone, and let's make this another memorable celebration. Good morning, everyone. I hope you're all feeling okay after the activities last week. I know you've all been working hard recently, especially with the wedding last weekend and the trade fair straight after that. And now we have only three days to prepare for the birthday party this weekend.

In fact, food product dating is usually about quality, not safety. Manufacturers provide dates mainly to help consumers and retailers (零售商) decide when food is of best quality. If the date passes during home storage, a product should still be safe and wholesome if handled properly, until spoilage is evident. Common phrases on food labels include: Phrase What it means Best if Used By The product will have its best flavor or quality by this date. It is not a purchase or safety date. Sell-By This tells the store how long to display the product for sale. It is not a safety date. Use-By This is the last date recommended for using the product while at peak quality. It is not a safety date except for infant formula. Freeze-By This tells when a product should be frozen to maintain peak quality. It is not a purchase or safety date. Food that has passed the date should still be checked before eating. Spoiled foods may develop an off smell, flavor or texture. If these signs appear, the food should not be eaten. Confusion over food dates can cause consumers to throw away wholesome food. Understanding the labels helps people judge food more carefully and reduce waste. 21. What are dates on food packages mainly about? A. Delivery time. B. Food safety. C. Production dates. D. Best quality. 22. If you are a retailer, which phrase should you pay attention to? A. Use-By. B. Sell-By. C. Freeze-By. D. Best if Used By. 23. What should consumers do with food after the label dates pass? A. Change its package. B. Add some flavor. C. Throw it away at once. D. Check its condition. B London, Paris, Milan ... and now Oswestry, Shropshire, where a pioneering shared wardrobe (衣柜) project means you can visit the library and leave with a fresh outfit. Lizzie Dibble hopes her clothes lending project could help bring in new footfall to the UK’s struggling libraries, as well as introducing readers to the romance of secondhand fashion. “There’s something about the library,” she said. “It’s not a luxury shop or the busy, noisy high street. We want this to feel welcoming and accessible to everybody.” Dibble created With Love From ... in 2023, initially to exchange clothes with friends and family. Interest grew along with donations, and the project soon added sewing workshops, talks about sustainability and a repair service. The shared wardrobe has now moved to Oswestry library, where it is run by volunteers. There are around 400 pieces in the growing collection, which can be checked out via a barcode for three weeks and renewed just like a book. Each item is labelled with the name of the person who donated it. “It adds to the idea that preloved clothing is more special, because it has that history,” said Dibble. Recent years have seen a boom in rental apps, which offer fashion-lovers a way to make money from the priced items in their wardrobe, but the library offers a very different borrowing experience — hands-on, inclusive and free. Bhavini Mirza, a trainee textiles teacher, says it lets her look around without worrying about the price tag and see and feel the clothes in person. The current collection is mostly womenswear, but Dibble is keen to serve more groups, including people who need workwear and teenagers looking for clothes for special occasions. The project also gives people a greater respect for clothing. Nothing goes to landfill: tired or damaged clothes are saved for workshops, where design students can turn them into something new. Dibble is dreaming big, with plans to roll out a network of shared wardrobes across more libraries. For now, she is happy to keep clothes in circulation. “When you see someone pick up something you used to own and say, ‘I love this!’, I get goosebumps,” she says. 24. What does Dibble hope the project will do for libraries? A. Bring in new visitors. B. Start clothing sales. C. Open quiet luxury shops. D. Spread secondhand fashion. 25. What can we learn about With Love From ... in paragraph 3? A. It is set up to sell cheap clothes. B. It provides books for clothing lovers. C. It has developed more related services. D. It records each item’s history with a barcode. 26. What makes the library wardrobe different from rental apps? A. Quick offline booking. B. Direct physical borrowing. C. Free training for fashion-lovers. D. Growing popularity among teachers. 27. What impact does the project have? A. It helps libraries compete with rental apps. B. It leads to a decline in local clothing sales. C. It encourages people to value and reuse clothes. D. It makes workshops popular among design students. C A new study points to a key bone-strengthening mechanism at work in the body, which could be targeted to treat osteoporosis (骨质疏松). The study, led by researchers from the University of Leipzig in Germany and Shandong University in China, identified the cell receptor GPR133 as being crucial to bone density. Current treatments, such as calcium and vitamin D supplements or hormone therapies, can have side effects or limited long-term efficacy. The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. The team ran tests on mice in which GPR133 was either absent or could be activated using a chemical called AP503. In experiments, in the absence of GPR133, the mice showed weaker bones and lower bone mass, similar to osteoporosis. However, when the receptor was present and activated by AP503, bone production and strength improved, significantly improving bone volume and strength even in an osteoporosis model. The new research suggests GPR133 could be a drug target for a better solution. GPR133 appears to regulate the activity of osteoblasts — the cells that build new bone. When GPR133 is activated, it triggers (触发) a cellular signaling pathway that promotes osteoblast function and bone mineralization. This means the receptor helps accelerate the process of bone remodeling, where old bone is replaced by new bone. The discovery that a new receptor like GPR133 responds to mechanical forces, such as physical strain on bones, adds a new piece to the puzzle of how bones adapt to stress. In essence, GPR133 acts as a sensor that, when stimulated, tells bone-building cells to get to work. If an equivalent therapy can be developed for humans, it could offer a way to increase bone mass and reduce break risk without some of the drawbacks of existing drugs. The Leipzig team’s findings, published in a leading scientific journal, mark a significant step toward treating bone loss diseases. As researchers continue to reveal the role of GPR133, there is renewed optimism that stronger bones in old age could become a reality for many. 28. What happens to mice without GPR133? A. Their bone volume rises rapidly. B. They suffer poor bone strength. C. Their bone production improved. D. They create AP503 inside bodies. 29. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. How GPR133 works to help rebuild bones. B. The specific functions of bone-building cells. C. The response of GPR133 to mechanical forces. D. How the physical forces affect our bone health. 30. What do we know about the findings? A. They mainly explain age-related bone loss. B. They have provided patients with a safer treatment. C. They may lead to a promising way to treat bone loss. D. They replaced existing drugs to treat humans’ osteoporosis. 31. Where is the text most probably taken from? A. A medical product review. B. A biology textbook. C. A handbook on bone protection. D. A health science article. D A small criticism from a friend or a careless comment at home may lead to a reaction far stronger than the situation requires. Such moments are often described as “overreacting”. But psychologists suggest these reactions may not simply show a bad temper. They may be the brain’s way of responding to a perceived threat. According to Psychology Today, overreacting is a survival-based emotional response where the brain perceives a threat, causing a reaction disproportionate(不相称的)to the current event. Rooted in past painful experiences, high stress, or unmet emotional needs, it is often a defence mechanism rather than drama. Overreaction happens when immediate emotional needs are threatened or when the present situation echoes past pains. Research suggests that our brain acts as a pattern-matching and pattern-generating machine. When things are not already in patterns, it tries to make sense of what it sees by fitting them into familiar shapes. Previous experiences are used as a shortcut for understanding and interpreting new information. Alarm bells may go off if a person or situation reminds us of previous contacts who caused us pain. The roots of overreaction may begin early in life. Researchers from Oregon State University have found that genetics play a role in negative emotionality, or the tendency to become upset easily. Parents who overreact are more likely to have children who act out and become upset easily. The link was especially clear in children who were already more likely, by nature, to react negatively, even when they were raised in a relatively calm environment. Yet these early influences do not mean our reactions are fixed. In a world filled with challenges and disappointments, identifying factors that trigger anger or anxiety can prepare us for a more conscious reaction. When emotion rises, deep breathing can activate the parasympathetic(副交感神经)nervous system and help us respond thoughtfully rather than impulsively. Regular relaxation may make emotional meltdowns less likely, turning overreaction into something we can notice and manage. 32. According to the psychologists, overreacting is probably ______. A. a thoughtful response B. a protective reaction C. an intentional dramatic act D. a simple sign of bad temper 33. What does the underlined phrase “Alarm bells may go off” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. The brain may start to sense danger. B. Past experiences may help form patterns. C. New information may be understood quickly. D. The painful memories will control one’s mind. 34. What does “the link” in paragraph 4 refer to? A. Parenting and children’s nature. B. Early experience and bad temper. C. Genes and negative emotionality. D. Environment and negative feelings. 35. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To analyze overreaction and solutions. B. To prove the importance of overreaction. C. To classify different patterns of overreaction. D. To tell reasons and influences of overreaction. 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。 When someone reaches out to you with an emotionally charged text, responding appropriately is never an easy task. Lacking facial cues and vocal tones, written messages often fail to convey genuine feelings accurately. Many people are at a loss about how to convey sincere care through written words. ____36____ It helps build trust and makes the other person feel truly seen and valued. Learning to listen patiently stands as the primary principle in such communication. Rather than rushing to offer practical advice the moment you receive the message, you ought to prioritize emotional recognition first. Most people in low spirits do not expect instant solutions to their troubles. ____37____ Any form of criticism or casual denial of their feelings will only push them further away, damaging the connection between you. ____38____ People tend to express inner frustration in vague and indirect ways online. Without body language or tone, even simple messages can be misunderstood easily. It is therefore necessary to adopt subtle ways to confirm their true thoughts.

It is fairly easy for people to shift topics to their own similar sufferings unconsciously. This kind of behavior can make the other person feel ignored and unimportant. ____39____ Brief resonance is acceptable, yet endless self-expression is totally inappropriate. Some widely accepted comforting phrases actually have the opposite effects in such situations. Those stereotyped (老套的) words sound indifferent and cold. They may make others think you are not taking their feelings seriously. ____40____ Instead, try to put yourself in their position and speak from sincere understanding. A. Mastering proper response skills matters a lot. B. It is wise to solve practical problems immediately. C. They simply need sincere understanding and spiritual comfort. D. Misinterpretation is quite common in text-based communication. E. You are supposed to emphasize less on your own past experiences. F.

I lay on the sofa, watching Animal Planet, when my friend Harley called. “Hey, Adam. You have a GoPro camera, right? Can you film the foam (泡沫) party this Saturday?” I had never filmed a party or anything else before, but I thought, why not help a friend out? Any party with foam must be fun anyway. “Okay, I’ll give it a try,” I said. I had no idea that this simple request would soon change my whole life. A few days later, I finished the short video and invited my wife, Ashleigh, to watch it in my room. I stared at her face as she watched the party scenes on the screen. She smiled from ear to ear the whole time. When the video ended, I turned off the screen and asked nervously, “So, what do you think?” “Adam, you’re so talented!” she said excitedly. “You turned a small-town party into something that looks like a big city event. You must make good use of this talent. No more excuses!” As she walked to the door, she turned around and said playfully, “Don’t come out until you’ve chosen a film course!” After she left the room, I sat alone, starting to think about a new life. I was really scared to go to film school as an adult. Ashleigh believed in me, and my video had already got 4,000 views online. However, negative thoughts kept coming into my mind. “You’re too old to keep up with young students,” “You’re not good enough,” “They know much more than you.” I wanted to succeed, but I feared failure more. I preferred my stable job to taking risks. Quitting my well-paid job to study film was a huge risk. I worried about being laughed at if I failed. It seemed easier to stay in an unhappy job than to chase my dream. Thankfully, Ashleigh never gave up on me. 注意： 1. 词数应为150左右； 2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 With her encouragement, I finally took the first step and enrolled in film school. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Half a year later, I got a chance to film for a famous music festival. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
