She was 19 years old and feeling excited to spend a year studying abroad in Nancy, a city in northeast France. Within a few weeks in France, though, her excitement turned into a strong sense of loneliness. Living in a new country was much harder than she expected, especially when it came to speaking French. “I could understand the language, but I was terrible about speaking it. My pronunciation was terrible. People could not understand me.” Jane said. Fighting to be understood was mentally tiring. The only thing getting her through was the knowledge that a little piece of home was on the way. “My mom had sent me a care package, and in it she had sent peanut (花生) butter, which I could not find in France. So this was really exciting for me.” Jane remembered. Jane had to go to the post office to pick up the package. But the staff couldn’t understand her French. “The more I repeated myself, the more hopeless I felt. When I was about to break down in tears, in walked my unsung hero.” The person who came to Jane’s help was a French woman named Chantal Jouve. “She stepped in, looked at me and said, in English, ‘Can I help you?’ And she spoke to the staff, and within two minutes, the package was in my hands.” After helping her get the package, Jouve invited Jane to her house for dinner the following Sunday. “It became a regular thing every Sunday to have dinner with her and her family. It was a safe place for me to practice my French without all those feelings from before. I really felt like I was at home there.” Decades later, Jane and Jouve are still in touch. They exchange cards every Christmas and have visited each other’s families. “To this day, her act of kindness has influenced my life,” Jane said. “I tend to pay a little bit more attention to people who might need help, and I offer kindness and help to a stranger. And I’m forever thankful that Madame Jouve did that for me.” 14. Jane Smith went to a city in France to ________. A. study B. work C. travel D. visit 15. Why did Jane feel hard to live in France? A. She had no friends. B. She missed home-made food. C. She was mentally tired of fighting. D. She found it difficult to communicate in French. 16. Staying with Jouve, how did Jane feel? A. Shocked. B. Challenged. C. Relaxed. D. Puzzled. 17. What can we learn from the story? A. Tiny warmth lasts long. B. Situation shapes a person. C. Friendship comforts loneliness. D. Confidence comes from support. C Musical talent does not, as those 19th-century people believed, leave marks on the cranium (颅骨). It does, however, seem to make an impression on the brain. Making music is a mental workout. The brain must connect sound and sight at the same time, as well as fine motor control, focus and creative thinking. Several studies have found that professional musicians have more grey matter, the neural (与神经相关的) tissue involved in thinking, movement and memory, in some regions than non-musicians. And a recent study suggested they may even be less sensitive to pain. Might children with early musical talent have a head start? A report from 2010 found that musicians who begin training before the age of seven have a larger corpus callosum, the neural bridge between the brain’s two hemispheres, than later starters. Research from 2014 suggests that learning an instrument also improves children's second-language learning and simple reasoning. Musical training later in life has been connected to slower age-related drop. A small study on older adults showed that continuing to learn an instrument was connected with less loss in language working memory and special brain matter size. The instrument you play could make a difference. A study from 2024 of 1,100 older Britons found that piano players tended, on average, to have better working memory. Singers did very well in language reasoning. In addition, the brain’s feeling system, which processes pleasure and reward, lights up when you play an instrument. And if an instrument is hard to get, simply listening may also be worth a try. In 2025, a study of 10,000 mentally healthy over-70s found that regular listeners to music had a 39% lower relative risk of cognitive (认知的) falling. The good news is that you don’t have to be a musical talent to feel the benefits of regular practice. Studies have found that steady training is connected with brain reorganisation in non-professional players as well as professionals. 18. What is Paragraph 1 mainly about? A. The way music works in our heads. B. The connection between music and the brain. C. The marks musical talent leaves on the cranium. D. The relationship between music and grey matter. 19. What can we infer about musicians? A. They may not feel painful. B. They can be pleased more easily. C. They usually begin training at an early age. D. They may experience slower loss of memory. 20. What does the author intend to tell us? A. Talent is less important for musicians. B. Brain reorganisation in people is different. C. Music practice makes a difference to a brain. D. Regular brain workout makes people musicians. D Earlier this week, I sent 60 students out into the city with an unusual task to wander the campus grounds and collect a list of random (随机的) objects within 90 minutes under a set of intentionally limited rules. Every object had to come from a stranger, and the only acceptable method of acquiring it was to ask. When the students returned to the classroom, what surprised the students most was not the odd mixture of things they managed to collect, but the success rate they found. You see, nearly every group had completed almost the entire list and they found that people were frequently amused by the request and often quite happy to help. Psychologists have been examining this pattern for decades, and the results steadily point toward what is an uncomfortable realization for many of us. The block that keeps people from getting more out of life and those around us is often not a refusal from others, but our own decision to never ask. One of the most widely popular explanations of how small features of a request influence behaviour comes from psychologist Ellen Langer's famous copier study in the late 1970s. In the experiment, a researcher approached people waiting in line at a photocopy machine and asked if they could step ahead in the line. When the request was made without explanation, a modest part of people agreed, and when the same request included a reason, compliance increased sharply. What was truly marked about the study was that the explanation did not need to contain any meaningful information at all. Another body of research suggests that the difficulty people experience with asking for help is often rooted less in persuasion technique and more in our entirely misjudged expectations. Psychologists Flynn and Lake conducted a series of experiments in which participants approached strangers with small requests. Before approaching anyone, participants estimated how many people they expected would agree, and the kicker is that they expected far more rejection than they actually came across. For most, the surprising pile of items on the classroom desk was less important than the realization that most of the barriers they had imagined never existed in the first place. The exercise also suggests at a small experiment you can run yourself this week, which is to pick one thing you quietly assumed you could not have and simply ask for it. 21. What can we learn from the first 2 paragraphs? A. Collected objects were of little practical value. B. The result of the task was out of expectation. C. The required time of the task was extended. D. Few students finished the task as required. 22. What does the underlined word “compliance” in Paragragh 4 most probably mean? A. Response. B. Doubt. C. Patience. D. Agreement. 23. What can be inferred from the studies? A. What we request blocks our decision. B. Meaningful reasons are in great need. C. Fine persuasion skills determine success. D. What we fear exists mostly in imagination. 24. What does the author mainly do in this passage? A. Illustrate a point. B. Analyze an event. C. Make a comparison. D. Clarify an approach. 第二部分（共57分） 三、完成句子（共7小题；每小题1分，共7分） 根据句意，用括号内所给单词的适当形式填空，请将正确形式完整地写在答题卡相应题号后的横线上。 25. He was ________ (passion) about all literature. (所给词的适当形式填空) 26.

In 2013, Tang made history as the first Chinese female deep-ocean researcher. As a team member of the Jiaolong submersible (潜水器), she conducted surveys at a depth of 2,774 meters in the Western Pacific. Tang was also part of China’s 34th Antarctic Research Expedition (考察), on the Xuelong icebreaker in 2017 for a six-month journey filled with challenges. Tang always reflects on the responsibilities of scientists. She attaches equal importance to scientific research and science popularization. Over the years, she has been teaching at schools and sharing experiences at summer camps, turning often-boring geological knowledge into lively stories. “Science shouldn’t be locked in laboratories — it should be in everyone’s life,” Tang says. She is attempting to help younger audiences develop wise, independent views on relationships and self-awareness. In December, she formed a team of young content creators to explore more ways to reach wider audiences. This has led to a series of campus-based short videos that connect science with social topics. The content quickly became a hit on Douyin. In her Douyin article, Tang also shared how she has tried to be a good mother. She has taken her daughter along on every short business trip and tries to schedule out-of-town lectures on weekends. When they are separated, Tang will help her daughter with her homework over a video call. Tang is trying to prove that women can play a role in scientific research while also balancing parental duties. The road ahead remains full of challenges, but “there are always more solutions than difficulties,” she adds. 45. Why does Tang Limei have more than 750,000 followers on Douyin? (不多于7个单词) _______________________________________________________________ 46. What is Tang Limei’s opinion about science? (不多于6个单词) _______________________________________________________________ 47.

Whenever I run into confusing grammar points or hard reading passages, I turn to AI for detailed explanations. It also helps me correct mistakes in my English compositions and design suitable daily exercises for me. In my spare time, I will ask AI to recommend English listening materials to improve my oral English as well. From my perspective, AI greatly lifts my learning efficiency. Since I want to develop my own thinking ability, I only use it as an auxiliary tool instead of copying its answers directly. It truly makes my study much smoother.
