96-year-old Bill Brown says of all the history he’s seen, it was the Great Depression that might have had the most profound impact on his life. “People came to help me and my parents during the depression, and I always felt I had a debt to pay”, Brown said, “As a little boy I learned how to help people.”
For the last 30 years, Brown — or Mr. Bill, as everyone calls him — has dedicated his life to helping others through the nonprofit he founded, the Children’s Table. The small, community food bank in Florida has served thousands of families over the years. “I think people in this community without the Children’s Table would be hungry,” said Stacey, the organization’s operations manager.
Brown started the organization with his wife in Levy County, and they have since expanded to serve about 10 counties. These are counties with high poverty rates, little to no public transportation, and many areas that could be considered “food deserts”.
“Through the years, a family would call late in the evening to say, ‘I’ve got no way to feed my family,’ and they have gone, loaded up boxes of food, and driven it however far they needed to make sure that family has food,” said Twombly, a worker at Florida Department of Children and Families.
“We had made the move to the area, and we were in desperate need of food,” Gooden says. “Mr. Bill, he’s a ray of sunshine in the darkness.” She’s now been volunteering with the Children’s Table for four years, holding the belief that neighbors should help neighbors.
“Helping spreads from person to person,” Brown said, “I’m honored to be able to help someone.”
4. What made Bill Brown start helping others?
A. High local poverty rates. B. Experiences at an early age.
C. Encouragement from his wife. D. Voluntary work in a food bank.
5. What can be inferred about the Children’s Table?
A. It provides free transport. B. It is responsive to urgent needs.
C. It frees the community from poverty. D. It inspires the birth of other nonprofits.
6. What does Gooden think of Mr. Bill?
A. A neighbor in need. B. An admirable fundraiser.
C. A skilled social worker. D. A source of hope in hardship.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Going through the Difficulties B. An Organization in Levy County
C. Fighting Poverty in Food Deserts D. A Debt Paid Through Innovation
C
In Kenerson’s after-school classroom, Sandi takes out a piece of paper and fills up a whole line to spell words that allow her to practice cursive (草书) — her new favorite method of writing.
She is a proud member of the Holmes Middle School cursive club in Virginia. Cursive has been on the rise for years now. More than two dozen states now require cursive instruction in schools after the 2010 Common Core standards left out the skill.
Kenerson started the middle school club when students couldn’t read her writing on the board. They just stared at her blankly, she said. For an educator who firmly believes that quotes deserve to be written in cursive, Kenerson wanted to give students a chance to understand the magic of the cursive.
The club exploded in popularity this past winter, with the Washington Post crediting it for “keeping cursive alive”. Kenerson’s after-school club is a local example of a nationwide trend — cursive handwriting is back in many classrooms across the country. Teachers and legislators credit the return to nostalgia (怀旧) and some evidence of educational benefits. But surprisingly, the curves and swoops are contentious among experts, and some argue that cursive does not add any real value for students, especially in the age of AI.
“I have seen no evidence that cursive brings any particular cognitive (认知的) or learning benefit beyond that brought by hand printing,” wrote Mark.
Much of the cursive debate centers around time in the classroom. Should educators spend precious minutes teaching another way to write on paper when technology is so readily available?
Datchuk, a professor of special education at the University of Iowa, said the answer does not have to be one or the other. In his college classroom, he sees students increasingly using tablets to take notes.“What that means is that as a country, we likely need to help our students become multi-modal,” Datchuk said. They need to not only be able to handwrite using print, but also use cursive, type, and interact with technology, he said.
8. What drove Kenerson to set up the cursive club?
A. Other educators’ appeal.
B. Students’ interest in cursive.
C. Students’ ignorance of cursive.
D. The desire to stand out among workmates.
9. What is the current situation of cursive in the US?
A. It lacks official support. B. It is regaining popularity.
C. It remains unknown to the public. D. It is a required subject in all schools.
10. What does the underlined word "contentious" in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Easily forgotten. B. Rapidly changed.
C. Widely accepted. D. Deeply questioned.
11. What does Datchuk advise students to do?
A. Focus only on printed handwriting in class.
B. Give up handwriting and turn to technology.
C. Spend more time practicing cursive every day.
D. Master different ways of writing and learning.
D
Endangered penguins (企鹅) living off South Africa’s coast have likely starved in large numbers due to food shortages, a study said, with some populations dropping by 95% in just eight years. Fewer than 10,000 breeding (繁殖) pairs of the small, black and white African penguin are left globally, according to scientists, and the species was listed as critically endangered last year by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Two of the most important breeding habitats near Cape Town collapsed between 2004 and 2011, with some 62,000 birds estimated to have died, the study by the UK’s University of Exeter and the South African Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment said. In those eight years, sardine (沙丁鱼) populations in South African waters — a main food source for penguins — were consistently below 25% of their peak level, said co-author and biologist Richard Sherley. This drop in sardine stocks was due to fishing practices combined with environmental causes such as changes in water temperatures.
“This appears to have caused serious food shortage for African penguins, leading to an estimated loss of about 62,000 breeding individuals,” Sherley said. The global population of the species had declined by nearly 80% in the past 30 years, the scientists said. Conservationists say that at the current rate of population decrease, the bird could be extinct in the wild by 2035.
For 10 years, a commercial fishing ban has come into effect around six penguin habitats, including Robben and Dassen islands, the two sites observed in the study. Other initiatives underway include artificial nests and creating new habitats.
The birds are a strong attraction for tourists to South Africa, with thousands of people visiting habitats each year. But the pressure from tourism also disturbs the birds and causes enhanced stress. Time is running out for Africa’s penguins.
12. What do we know about African penguins from paragraph 1?
A. They face the danger of extinction.
B. They are widespread around the globe.
C. They are on the rise under the protection of IUCN.
D. They threaten other species off South Africa’s coast.
13. What caused the decrease of sardine population?
A. Fishing and climate change. B. Serious food shortage.
C. The declined penguins species. D. A fishing ban around habitats.
14. Which aspect of African penguins does paragraph 3 focus on?
A. Their food sources. B. Protective measures for them.
C. Their serious condition. D. Related research into their habitats.
15. What do tourist visits bring to African penguins?
A. Wider living space. B. More protection.
C. More financial support. D. Greater disturbance.

47. 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。
The summer heat in Kent filled the attic (顶楼) like a thick, heavy blanket. Eleven-year-old Amy hid quietly behind an old sofa, watching her brother Ben search for his camping equipment. They hadn’t spoken a word since their fight a week before.
It had begun when Amy accidentally broke Ben’s model airplane — a project he had carefully built all spring. “I never want to see you again!” Ben had shouted angrily. Heartbroken, Amy ran away. For seven long days, a cold silence lay between them like an invisible wall. They ate meals without speaking and passed each other like strangers in the hallway.
As Ben pulled his sleeping bag from a dusty trunk (行李箱), a small tin biscuit box fell from a high shelf. It hit the floor, the lid popping open. Dozens of colorful paper stars spilled out. Ben froze. He recognized them as Amy’s handiwork — she often folded stars when she was worried or happy. He knelt and picked one up. In childish handwriting, it read: June 15th. Wish Ben’s football team would win, even though he isn’t talking to me now.
His throat tightened. He unfolded another. May 20th. Hope my brother’s model plane can really fly. Then an older one: January 10th. I’ll give him my pocket money for new trainers.
Ben slowly sat down on the floor, the anger inside him disappearing. Those sharp words he had shouted now felt empty and cruel. Other memories surfaced: the new glue and repair instructions that had mysteriously appeared in his drawer after the plane broke, and how the green beans he hated always disappeared from his lunchbox the next day after he complained.
A soft beam of afternoon light streamed through the window, glowing on the paper stars around him. Behind the sofa, Amy watched nervously, her heart beating fast, as her brother began carefully gathering the stars — one by one.
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。
Holding the gathered paper stars, Ben stepped towards the sofa.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The tin box was rested on a lower shelf, lid always open.

96-year-old Bill Brown says of all the history he’s seen, it was the Great Depression that might have had the most profound impact on his life. “People came to help me and my parents during the depression, and I always felt I had a debt to pay”, Brown said, “As a little boy I learned how to help people.”
For the last 30 years, Brown — or Mr. Bill, as everyone calls him — has dedicated his life to helping others through the nonprofit he founded, the Children’s Table. The small, community food bank in Florida has served thousands of families over the years. “I think people in this community without the Children’s Table would be hungry,” said Stacey, the organization’s operations manager.
Brown started the organization with his wife in Levy County, and they have since expanded to serve about 10 counties. These are counties with high poverty rates, little to no public transportation, and many areas that could be considered “food deserts”.
“Through the years, a family would call late in the evening to say, ‘I’ve got no way to feed my family,’ and they have gone, loaded up boxes of food, and driven it however far they needed to make sure that family has food,” said Twombly, a worker at Florida Department of Children and Families.
“We had made the move to the area, and we were in desperate need of food,” Gooden says. “Mr. Bill, he’s a ray of sunshine in the darkness.” She’s now been volunteering with the Children’s Table for four years, holding the belief that neighbors should help neighbors.
“Helping spreads from person to person,” Brown said, “I’m honored to be able to help someone.”
4. What made Bill Brown start helping others?
A. High local poverty rates. B. Experiences at an early age.
C. Encouragement from his wife. D. Voluntary work in a food bank.
5. What can be inferred about the Children’s Table?
A. It provides free transport. B. It is responsive to urgent needs.
C. It frees the community from poverty. D. It inspires the birth of other nonprofits.
6. What does Gooden think of Mr. Bill?
A. A neighbor in need. B. An admirable fundraiser.
C. A skilled social worker. D. A source of hope in hardship.
7. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Going through the Difficulties B. An Organization in Levy County
C. Fighting Poverty in Food Deserts D. A Debt Paid Through Innovation
【答案】4. B 5. B 6. D 7. D

C
In Kenerson’s after-school classroom, Sandi takes out a piece of paper and fills up a whole line to spell words that allow her to practice cursive (草书) — her new favorite method of writing.
She is a proud member of the Holmes Middle School cursive club in Virginia. Cursive has been on the rise for years now. More than two dozen states now require cursive instruction in schools after the 2010 Common Core standards left out the skill.
Kenerson started the middle school club when students couldn’t read her writing on the board. They just stared at her blankly, she said. For an educator who firmly believes that quotes deserve to be written in cursive, Kenerson wanted to give students a chance to understand the magic of the cursive.
The club exploded in popularity this past winter, with the Washington Post crediting it for “keeping cursive alive”. Kenerson’s after-school club is a local example of a nationwide trend — cursive handwriting is back in many classrooms across the country. Teachers and legislators credit the return to nostalgia (怀旧) and some evidence of educational benefits. But surprisingly, the curves and swoops are contentious among experts, and some argue that cursive does not add any real value for students, especially in the age of AI.
“I have seen no evidence that cursive brings any particular cognitive (认知的) or learning benefit beyond that brought by hand printing,” wrote Mark.
Much of the cursive debate centers around time in the classroom. Should educators spend precious minutes teaching another way to write on paper when technology is so readily available?
Datchuk, a professor of special education at the University of Iowa, said the answer does not have to be one or the other. In his college classroom, he sees students increasingly using tablets to take notes.“What that means is that as a country, we likely need to help our students become multi-modal,” Datchuk said. They need to not only be able to handwrite using print, but also use cursive, type, and interact with technology, he said.
8. What drove Kenerson to set up the cursive club?
A. Other educators’ appeal.
B. Students’ interest in cursive.
C. Students’ ignorance of cursive.
D. The desire to stand out among workmates.
9. What is the current situation of cursive in the US?
A. It lacks official support. B. It is regaining popularity.
C. It remains unknown to the public. D. It is a required subject in all schools.
10. What does the underlined word "contentious" in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Easily forgotten. B. Rapidly changed.
C. Widely accepted. D. Deeply questioned.
11. What does Datchuk advise students to do?
A. Focus only on printed handwriting in class.
B. Give up handwriting and turn to technology.
C. Spend more time practicing cursive every day.
D. Master different ways of writing and learning.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍美国草书教学重新兴起的校园现象,讲述教师Kenerson创办草书社团的缘由,同时介绍专家对于草书教学的价值争议以及相关教育学者给出的折中教育观点。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Kenerson started the middle school club when students couldn’t read her writing on the board. They just stared at her blankly, she said.(Kenerson说,当学生们看不懂她写在黑板上的字时,她创办了这个中学俱乐部。他们只是茫然地盯着她。)”可知,促使Kenerson创办草书俱乐部的原因是学生们对草书一无所知。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Kenerson’s after-school club is a local example of a nationwide trend — cursive handwriting is back in many classrooms across the country.(Kenerson的课后社团是全国趋势的一个缩影——草书书写正在全国众多课堂中再度回归。)”可知,美国草书如今正在重新流行、恢复热度。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中的“Teachers and legislators credit the return to nostalgia (怀旧) and some evidence of educational benefits. But surprisingly, the curves and swoops are contentious among experts, and some argue that cursive does not add any real value for students, especially in the age of AI.(教师和立法者将草书的回归归因于怀旧情结以及其具备一定教育价值,但令人意外的是,草书在专家群体中是contentious的,部分专家认为在人工智能时代,草书无法为学生带来实际价值。)”可知,对于草书的价值,专家们看法不一、存在诸多质疑,contentious意为“备受争议、遭到深度质疑”,与Deeply questioned意思相近。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“They need to not only be able to handwrite using print, but also use cursive, type, and interact with technology, he said.(他表示,学生不仅需要会印刷体手写,还需要掌握草书、打字以及运用各类科技工具。)”可知,Datchuk建议学生掌握多种书写与学习方式,实现多元学习模式。

Endangered penguins (企鹅) living off South Africa’s coast have likely starved in large numbers due to food shortages, a study said, with some populations dropping by 95% in just eight years. Fewer than 10,000 breeding (繁殖) pairs of the small, black and white African penguin are left globally, according to scientists, and the species was listed as critically endangered last year by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
Two of the most important breeding habitats near Cape Town collapsed between 2004 and 2011, with some 62,000 birds estimated to have died, the study by the UK’s University of Exeter and the South African Department of Forestry, Fisheries and the Environment said. In those eight years, sardine (沙丁鱼) populations in South African waters — a main food source for penguins — were consistently below 25% of their peak level, said co-author and biologist Richard Sherley. This drop in sardine stocks was due to fishing practices combined with environmental causes such as changes in water temperatures.
“This appears to have caused serious food shortage for African penguins, leading to an estimated loss of about 62,000 breeding individuals,” Sherley said. The global population of the species had declined by nearly 80% in the past 30 years, the scientists said. Conservationists say that at the current rate of population decrease, the bird could be extinct in the wild by 2035.
For 10 years, a commercial fishing ban has come into effect around six penguin habitats, including Robben and Dassen islands, the two sites observed in the study. Other initiatives underway include artificial nests and creating new habitats.
The birds are a strong attraction for tourists to South Africa, with thousands of people visiting habitats each year. But the pressure from tourism also disturbs the birds and causes enhanced stress. Time is running out for Africa’s penguins.
12. What do we know about African penguins from paragraph 1?
A. They face the danger of extinction.
B. They are widespread around the globe.
C. They are on the rise under the protection of IUCN.
D. They threaten other species off South Africa’s coast.
13. What caused the decrease of sardine population?
A. Fishing and climate change. B. Serious food shortage.
C. The declined penguins species. D. A fishing ban around habitats.
14. Which aspect of African penguins does paragraph 3 focus on?
A. Their food sources. B. Protective measures for them.
C. Their serious condition. D. Related research into their habitats.
15. What do tourist visits bring to African penguins?
A. Wider living space. B. More protection.
C. More financial support. D. Greater disturbance.
【答案】12. A 13. A 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【导语】研究指出南非非洲企鹅因沙丁鱼锐减大量挨饿,种群数量大幅下降、濒临野外灭绝;当地实施禁渔、搭建人工巢穴等保护措施,但旅游活动仍持续干扰企鹅生存。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Fewer than 10,000 breeding (繁殖) pairs of the small, black and white African penguin are left globally, according to scientists, and the species was listed as critically endangered last year by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN). (科学家称,全球仅存不到一万对正在繁殖的非洲黑白小企鹅,该物种去年被国际自然保护联盟列为极危物种。)”可知,非洲企鹅面临灭绝的危险。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“This drop in sardine stocks was due to fishing practices combined with environmental causes such as changes in water temperatures. (沙丁鱼储量下降是捕捞作业加上水温变化等环境因素共同造成的。)”可知,水温变化属于气候变化,因此捕捞和气候变化导致沙丁鱼数量减少。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段““This appears to have caused serious food shortage for African penguins, leading to an estimated loss of about 62,000 breeding individuals,” Sherley said. The global population of the species had declined by nearly 80% in the past 30 years, the scientists said. Conservationists say that at the current rate of population decrease, the bird could be extinct in the wild by 2035. (Sherley表示:“这似乎造成非洲企鹅严重的食物短缺,据估算已有约6.2万只繁殖个体消失。”科学家称,过去三十年间该物种全球数量锐减近八成。环保人士表示,按照目前的种群衰退速度,这种鸟类到2035年可能野外灭绝。)”可知,整段围绕企鹅数量锐减、濒临灭绝的严峻生存状况展开。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“But the pressure from tourism also disturbs the birds and causes enhanced stress. (但旅游业带来的压力也会打扰企鹅,让它们承受更大精神压力。)”可知,游客到访会对企鹅造成更大干扰。

47. 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。
The summer heat in Kent filled the attic (顶楼) like a thick, heavy blanket. Eleven-year-old Amy hid quietly behind an old sofa, watching her brother Ben search for his camping equipment. They hadn’t spoken a word since their fight a week before.
It had begun when Amy accidentally broke Ben’s model airplane — a project he had carefully built all spring. “I never want to see you again!” Ben had shouted angrily. Heartbroken, Amy ran away. For seven long days, a cold silence lay between them like an invisible wall. They ate meals without speaking and passed each other like strangers in the hallway.
As Ben pulled his sleeping bag from a dusty trunk (行李箱), a small tin biscuit box fell from a high shelf. It hit the floor, the lid popping open. Dozens of colorful paper stars spilled out. Ben froze. He recognized them as Amy’s handiwork — she often folded stars when she was worried or happy. He knelt and picked one up. In childish handwriting, it read: June 15th. Wish Ben’s football team would win, even though he isn’t talking to me now.
His throat tightened. He unfolded another. May 20th. Hope my brother’s model plane can really fly. Then an older one: January 10th. I’ll give him my pocket money for new trainers.
Ben slowly sat down on the floor, the anger inside him disappearing. Those sharp words he had shouted now felt empty and cruel. Other memories surfaced: the new glue and repair instructions that had mysteriously appeared in his drawer after the plane broke, and how the green beans he hated always disappeared from his lunchbox the next day after he complained.
A soft beam of afternoon light streamed through the window, glowing on the paper stars around him. Behind the sofa, Amy watched nervously, her heart beating fast, as her brother began carefully gathering the stars — one by one.

Holding the gathered paper stars, Ben stepped towards the sofa.

____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
Holding the gathered paper stars, Ben stepped towards the sofa. Spotting Amy’s nervous figure hiding behind the sofa, Ben’s eyes were full of guilt and tenderness. He knelt down gently and held the delicate paper stars out to his sister. “I’m so sorry, Amy. I was too stubborn and mean to blame you blindly,” he apologized sincerely, with his voice slightly shaky. Tears welled up in Amy’s eyes immediately. She had suffered from their cold war and missed her kind brother so much. She nodded silently and took the stars, with all her anxiety and sadness fading away. The invisible wall separating the two siblings crumbled completely at last.
The tin box was rested on a lower shelf, lid always open. From then on, the siblings reconciled and got along as warmly as before. Amy kept folding colorful paper stars to record every warm and happy moment between them. The open tin box gradually filled with more heartfelt stars. Whenever they passed the shelf, they would stop to glance at the stars and share soft smiles. That special summer taught them a precious lesson: genuine sibling love lies in tolerance and mutual understanding, and no trivial quarrel can ever break their close bond.
