It refers to the process by which human beings are turned into workers and nothing else. Work becomes total when it is the center of all human life; when everything else serves work; when leisure, celebration and play begin to look like and then become work; when there is no part of life left beyond work; when people fully believe that we were born only to work; and when other ways of life, which existed before total work won out, completely disappear from our cultural memory. What is so troubling about total work is not only that it causes unnecessary human suffering, but also that it removes the forms of playful contemplation concerned with our asking, pondering and answering the most basic questions of existence. First, there is always a sense of pressure, a feeling that there is always something that needs to be done right now. Second, one feels guilty whenever he is not as productive as possible. The burden character of total work is marked by endless, restless activity, worry about the future, a feeling that life is too much to handle, troubling thoughts about missed chances, and guilt over the possibility of being lazy. In short, total work necessarily causes dukkha, a Buddhist term referring to the unsatisfactory nature of a life filled with suffering. Besides causing suffering, total work blocks our access to higher levels of reality. What is lost in the world of total work is art’s showing of beauty, love’s pure joy, and philosophy’s sense of wonder. All of these require silence, stillness, and a true willingness to simply experience. If meaning is what allows us to connect with something greater than ourselves, then what is lost in a world of total work is the very possibility of experiencing meaning. What is lost is the search for why we are here. 24. Which of the following best reflects the feature of total work? A. Work is considered as an important part of life. B. People are devoted to pursuing their career goals. C. Work almost dominates every aspect of human life. D. People feel proud when they are highly productive. 25. What does the underlined word “dukkha” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. A constant sense of pressure. B. A lasting state of eagerness. C. A temporary feeling of regret. D. A deep desire for achievement. 26. What can be inferred about the impact of total work on human experience? A. It forces people to seek different meanings in life. B. It makes people more productive and spiritually fulfilled. C. It strengthens people’s connection with higher levels of reality. D. It reduces the possibility of having precious spiritual experiences. 27. Which of the following is the best title for the text? A. How to Balance Work and Leisure B. What is Lost in a World of Total Work C. Say Goodbye to Work-Centered Existence D. Total Work to Blame for Productivity Decline C Almost every Monday morning, plenty of us can be found daydreaming about taking off and escaping the daily routine. Few of us, once we’re buried in grown-up employment and adult responsibilities, have the courage to actually do it. But one couple did. Josie Scott and Graeme Ramsey, based in New Zealand, decided to take a one-year vacation from their lives. Rather than committing to a full-time position as beach-goers or backpackers, they chose to volunteer in Ghana for a year, in a small village called Dzita. Having stayed at MMT, a not-for-profit lodge that offers accommodation and helps the functioning of an NGO, Dream Big Ghana, which works to improve the public hygiene (卫生), education and health care for local people before, Josie knew how it worked and about the good it did with the local community. She then volunteered herself and Graeme to run the lodge for a year. And so began a year of African adventure away from everything they were used to. They greeted guests and took bookings, cooked and cleaned, shopped and swam and finally become a part of this tiny village community. One year on and Josie and Graeme are now back in New Zealand adjusting to life at home. The couple think they’ve got a lot from that experience, the most important of which is patience. “Time is viewed differently and so expecting things to run the same way as they do in New Zealand is going to lead to disappointment. Everything gets done in its own time, and that was a very valuable lesson to learn. People are also very friendly in Ghana, but it actually takes a long time to really get to know what’s going on. Being patient and building relationships slowly is very rewarding. Using what we have rather than what we think we need was another lesson. Living outside the city with few resources is a good way to learn to make good use of what’s around us.” 28. Why do we often fail to escape from the daily routine? A. Because our kids are growing up. B. Because we are not confident enough. C. Because we have many duties to perform. D. Because we are employed in big businesses. 29. What does the underlined word “lodge” mean in the third paragraph? A. A small hotel. B. A charity foundation. C. A royal fountain. D. A travel agency. 30. What did the couple do during their stay in Africa? A. Go to different beaches. B. Set up their own company. C. Hike with their backpacks. D. Work in the local community. 31. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Patience and adapting to local rhythms are valuable lessons. B. They found city life in New Zealand meaningless. C. They will move to Ghana to work full-time. D. Ghana’s way of life is more efficient than the other places. D For customers who don’t have the freedom to choose where they shop, technological advancements are making price discrimination (歧视) increasingly likely. Flexibility-based price discrimination allows companies to charge different people different prices for the same product or service, based on how easily they can walk away. When consumers can easily find better deals elsewhere, they hold the power. However, AI tools are allowing sellers to become increasingly expert at uncovering how much flexibility their consumers have, which raises serious concerns. In a recent study, we examined how flexibility-based price discrimination affects a seller’s profitability in a competitive market, and studied how consumer welfare is affected. The findings demonstrated that companies that utilize consumer inflexibility are likely to boom, often at the expense of those with the least power to choose. They don’t just raise prices when customers aren’t able to easily switch to a competitor, for low-income consumers they reduce product quality as well. This double blow hits low-income consumers hard. Dollar stores, for example, often serve low-income communities in smaller markets. When these retailers realize their customers have limited alternatives, they are less likely to keep prices low. Moreover, tests revealed the presence of poisonous components in colorfully labeled children’s products at American and Canadian dollar stores. But this is only part of the story. When these same techniques are used to target wealthier consumers, it can result in positive social outcomes for them. In contrast, high-income consumers may see their product quality improve. This is because high-income consumers are willing and able to pay for the improved quality and technology-enabled price discrimination can enable the seller to satisfy their needs better. The same thing happens with trade barriers and tariffs (关税). Product quality, price and income are known to be interconnected, with lower-income inflexible consumers suffering more than high-income consumers in the same situation. Any barriers that reduce consumer flexibility disproportionately harm low-income consumers, who are more likely to face lower-quality products as a result. Our study provides valuable insights for both lawmakers and policymakers. It shows that new policies are necessary to protect vulnerable consumers with limited flexibility from price discrimination. 32. What does the underlined word “utilize” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Refer to. B. Depend on. C. Take advantage of. D. Get rid of. 33. What do companies tend to do when consumers lack purchase choices? A. Expand product varieties. B. Lower prices to attract more customers. C. Reduce product quality for low-income groups. D. Prioritize the needs of high-income consumers. 34. Why does the author mention dollar stores? A. To show how companies draw on consumer inflexibility. B. To highlight health risks for children in low-income areas. C. To criticize their addition of harmful chemicals in products. D. To compare product quality between different income groups. 35. What is the author’s attitude toward price discrimination? A. Favourable. B. Skeptical. C. Objective. D. Disapproving. 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。 Festivals are lively celebrations that bring together music, art, food, and culture. Whether you’re a first-timer or a festival regular, making your experience unforgettable takes some planning and preparation. Here are some useful tips to help you make the most of your festival trip. Choose the right festival. Start by picking a festival that suits you. There are so many options — music festivals, food fairs, or art events. Take time to find one that matches your interests. 36 For example, if you love jazz, look for a jazz festival. If you enjoy local food, find a festival that features regional dishes. Plan ahead. First, buy your tickets early, as tickets to popular festivals often sell out fast. 37 Also, check the festival schedule ahead of time. Knowing the lineup and key events will help you plan your days effectively. And don’t forget to arrange your travel and stay in advance. Get into the culture. Every festival has its own typical culture. 38 Take the time to explore different aspects of the festival beyond just the main events. Chat with local artists, join a workshop, or attend a talk. These small moments often enable a deeper connection to the event and its theme. 39 Part of the fun of festivals is the unexpected. You might come across a small hidden performance, discover an artist you’ve never heard of, or find a quiet spot away from the crowd. Try to attend some of the less popular events. These can offer unique experiences, and may lead you to your new favorite activity. Document your experience. Take photos and videos to remember the joyful moments. You could also keep a journal (日记) or blog to reflect on your experiences. But make sure to truly enjoy the moment; sometimes the best experiences are the ones you don’t document but feel deeply. 40 A. Be open to surprises. B. Connect with professionals. C. Early-bird tickets can save you money. D. It means appreciating what you have right now. E. And enjoying it can lead to unforgettable experiences. F. Consider factors such as the style, location, and atmosphere. G. Thus, balancing memory-keeping with being present is significant. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项 Last year, anxiety weighed heavily on me, crippling (削弱) my ability to do anything.

I’ve discovered China is a country 57 deserts, mountains, forests and tundra are best explored on the backs of yaks, horses, elephants and ostriches. While too much of the world misunderstands too much of China, nobody in the world understands all of it — or even close to enough of it — 58 (include) even Chinese people. I was particularly honored when many overseas friends said my latest book, A Global Nomad’s Journey Through China’s Poverty Alleviation — which goes beyond policy technicalities (技术性细节) to tell the 59 (person) stories of how measures have transformed lives across remote corners of the country — 60 (change) their views on China for the better. But I was 61 (especial) delighted when many Chinese readers said that they had learned about their own country from reading this book, 62 (write) by a foreigner. That was a less-expected honor. While we initially released the book 63 English and Chinese, I was delighted that an Italian publisher asked to translate and publish it and 64 a Nepalese publisher followed suit, bringing this story to more people in more languages. That’s because, as Nelson Mandela once said, “If you talk to a man in a language he understands, that goes to his head. If you talk to him in his own language, that goes to 65 heart.” 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66．假定你是李华，近期学校要组织“英语文化节”活动，需招募10名学生志愿者，为文化节的才艺秀、英语演讲比赛以及英语辩论赛等提供服务。请你以短文形式写一则招聘广告。 1．招聘岗位信息； 2．应聘条件：支持学校的活动，能胜任工作；善于沟通，与同学相处融洽； 3．工作时间：上午8点至下午4点；工作内容：具体任务可协商； 4．联系人：李华（138xxxx8888）；招聘截止日期：本周三。 注意： 1．词数80个左右； 2．可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 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。 Lucas had always been the quiet one in the family. While his younger sister, Lily, was outgoing and effortlessly charmed everyone at gatherings, Lucas often found himself in the background, a silent observer. At 16, he felt invisible, especially when it came to expressing his own thoughts and feelings. His family meant well, but they often spoke for him, assuming they knew what he was thinking. This assumption became painfully clear during the planning for Grandpa’s 80th birthday party. The whole family gathered around the table, talking excitedly about party preparations, decorations, food and entertainment. “Lucas can help with the setup,” his aunt declared without looking at him. “And he can serve the cake,” his uncle added. Lucas opened his mouth to speak, to say he actually wanted to give a short speech, a tribute (致敬词) he had been secretly writing for weeks in his notebook. He wanted to tell everyone about the special fishing trips he and Grandpa had taken, the ones where he taught him to be patient, to listen, and to find strength in silence. But the words got stuck in his throat. His mother, noticing his hesitation, said gently, “Don’t worry, son. We’ll handle everything.” That night, Lucas sat in his room, staring at his notebook. The speech felt like a secret part of him, locked away. He had always let others define his role — the quiet one, the helper. But this time felt different. He realized that if he never spoke up, no one would ever know the person he truly was. A new determination began to form inside him. The day of the party arrived. The house was filled with laughter and the smell of home-cooked food. Grandpa, sitting in his favorite armchair, was surrounded by family. Lucas watched from the doorway, his heart pounding. He seized the folded piece of paper in his pocket. Everyone was having a good time. Would his small moment of bravery ruin it? He took a deep breath, remembering Grandpa’s words on their last fishing trip: “The bravest thing you can do, Lucas, is to be yourself.” 注意： 续写词数应为150个左右； 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Just before the cake announcement, Lucas stepped forward, his voice trembling but clear. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When he finished, Grandpa slowly rose from his chair. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 参考答案 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B A A B B A B C A B 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 A B C B A C A B A C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 A D B C A D B C A D 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 A C C A C F C E A G 题号 41 42 43 44 45 46 47 48 49 50 答案 B D C A C A D B A C 题号 51 52 53 54 55 答案 B D D D C 1. 【原文】W: Look! The river is as clear as glass. You can see every rock on the bottom. M: Yeah, that’s impressive! There aren’t many people here. And we might even see a double rainbow after the rain. 2. 【原文】W: Hi Jim. The charity party is coming up next month. It’s a great opportunity to support a good cause and enjoy an evening of music and dancing. Would you like to go with me? M: Sure. I’d love to be part of it. 3. 【原文】M: Do you sing or dance? W: I’m thinking of taking guitar lessons. 4. 【原文】W: Do you like the show Culture Express on Channel 4? M: Not really, but I think the host is funny. W: Well, I can’t miss it for anything. 5. 【原文】M: Ron is driving me crazy. He has an annoying habit of tapping his fingers on the desk. W: Have you told him to stop? M: No, I don’t want to be rude. W: Well, if it’s making you crazy, staying silent isn’t going to help. 【原文】Liam: Sophia, have you finished reading The Midnight Library for our literature class? Sophia: Yes, I just completed it last night. I was fascinated by the concept of exploring alternate lives through a library. What did you think? Liam: Honestly, I found the protagonist Nora’s journey a bit overwhelming. The author vividly describes her regrets, but the endless possibilities she faced left me feeling anxious. Sophia: I see your point. However, I think the message is about embracing the present. Nora eventually realizes that every life has its own challenges and joys. By the way, did you notice the symbolism of the librarian? Liam: You mean Mrs. Elm? I assumed she represented wisdom or a guide. But some critics argue she’s merely a figment of Nora’s imagination. Sophia: That’s an interesting interpretation. I viewed her as a metaphor for Nora’s subconscious, helping her confront her deepest fears. Speaking of which, how did you feel about the ending? Liam: I was satisfied. Nora’s decision to return to her original life felt earned. It highlighted the theme of self-acceptance. Still, I wish the author had elaborated on some of the alternate lives, like her career as a glaciologist. Sophia: True, but including too many details might have diluted the focus. Overall, I’d rate it 4.5 out of 5 stars for its philosophical depth. Liam: Agreed. It’s a thought-provoking read, though not without flaws. 【原文】W: Good morning listeners. Welcome to Creative Voices, I’m Chloe. Today we’re joined by Jeremy Lee, whose new photo exhibition has drawn wide praise and recognition. Jeremy, you’ve long been known as a writer. Why turn to photography now? M: Hi Chloe, writing will always be part of me, but I started feeling that words sometimes stand between the viewer and the moment. With a camera, I can let people see life directly. Last winter, I spent weeks walking among city streets and buildings at dawn, seeing bakers baking, teachers teaching students. These aren’t dramatic scenes or famous cultural events, but they’re full of humanity. W: Did you ask people to pose for you? M: Rarely, most shots were unplanned. I believe true stories happen when people aren’t performing. For example, my favorite photo is of a street musician who didn’t notice the camera while playing his violin in the rain. W: What do you hope viewers take away? M: That common individuals matter. Many told me they saw their parents or neighbors in the photos. That’s the power of photography. It invites you to feel first, then understand. 【原文】W: I’d like to catch a concert this summer. Do you know of any? M: Oh, definitely. There’s a big rock concert in June, but unfortunately, you’re not really into it. And there will be some pop bands performing in July, which you might be interested in. W: Sweet! Do you know which ones? M: Not really, but I’ll look them up. By the way, would you like to accompany me to a jazz club this Friday night? We can practice the guitar together. W: I’d love to, but I’ll pass. I have promised to watch a movie with my sister at home. M: Why don’t you go to the cinema? W: Well, you know, I like to discuss the plot with others during the movie and tend to get a bit loud without even realizing it. Last time in a theater all the other viewers were looking at me and making a complaint about me. It’s a good thing we left early. M: Oh, that sounds terrible. Thankfully, they haven’t banned you for life from entering that movie theater. 【原文】M: Originally from Vientiane in Laos, Khounsavath has been teaching Lao language at Pu’er University for more than two years. He said he was interested in the natural landscape of an old tea forest on Jingmai Mountain, which gained UNESCO World Heritage Site status in 2023. “I was about to graduate at that time and was wondering where I should stay in China, then I saw this beautiful place in the movie,” said Khounsavath, who completed both his bachelor and master’s degrees in Chinese language in Shandong province. The launch of the China-Laos Railway is the most important reason for him to choose Yunnan, because it makes it easier for him to return home to see his family. The China-Laos Railway is a landmark project of high-quality Belt and Road cooperation. It began operations in December 2021 and started cross-border passenger service two years later. The railway connects Yunnan’s capital Kunming with Vientiane. “It takes only about five hours by train to get from Pu’er to Vientiane, and the railway station is close to the university,” said Khounsavath. 56. to tell 57. where / whose 58. including 59. personal 60. had changed 61. especially 62. written 63. in 64. that 65. his 66.
