第二部分 阅读(共两节, 满分50分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题2.5分,满分37.5 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
Composition of E-Waste
Nowadays, e-waste is one of the world’s fastest-growing waste streams. Waste electronics contain harmful substances like lead and mercury, posing serious environmental and health risks.
However, e-waste also represents a valuable “urban mine”. It holds an estimated 31 million tonnes of metals, 17 million tonnes of plastics, and 14 million tonnes of glass. One tonne of circuit boards can contain up to 800 times more gold than a tonne of gold-bearing rocks. Despite this, less than 1% of rare earth elements are recycled.
Recycled e-waste is a valuable resource for sustainable manufacturing (制造业). Its metals, e.g. gold and copper, are reused in electronics, vehicles, and renewable energy systems. Recovered plastics find new life in durable products, while glass is processed into building materials. This circular (循环的) approach cuts energy use, reduces mining demand, and transforms waste into industrial resources, supporting both the economy and the environment.
The e-waste management market is projected to more than double by 2027. While 81 countries have adopted Extended Producer Responsibility laws, collection rates still fall behind policy goals.
To improve recycling, governments should strengthen EPR laws, and invest in facilities. Institutions can promote research and public awareness. Individuals should properly drop off e-waste at collection points, fix items rather than throw them away, and support brands with strong environmental commitments.
1. What percentage do screens and cables account for in all e-waste compositions?
A. 12%. B. 14%. C. 17%. D. 60%.
2. What is a key advantage of e-waste compared to natural mines?
A. It contains a greater variety of rare elements.
B. It provides more recoverable non-metals.
C. It can be richer in precious metals.
D. It works better as building materials.
3. What is suggested for individuals to help recycle e-waste?
A. Invest in formal recycling facilities.
B. Launch public awareness campaigns.
C. Set clear personal take-back plans.
D. Choose repair over replacement.
B
Throughout our Junior year, my classmates and I have been worried about what colleges will see when they look at our whole life story reduced to a single 200-word essay. Will the golden word “success” form in their minds when they review our achievements? Or will they see the big word “fail” in red? The shadow of this mysterious (神秘的) institution steals away what success means to us.
My first step of redefining success began with course registrations. It is a well-known fact, especially in my school, that Junior year is the time of packing many AP classes into the schedule. When asked why they chose so many AP classes, my friends responded: “I don’t know.” They themselves don’t know why they are following the crowd and longing for the pressures of academic difficulty. Therefore, they do not feel the satisfaction of being academically challenged.
Completing many courses no longer brings out the feeling of success because more than four AP classes per year is a norm set by top universities. Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. The feeling of success was no longer attached to what grade I received but to the pure joy of learning.
Even my failures are attached to a feeling of success; after I take a step back and look at the big picture, I see them as a launching pad (平台) for my next big achievement. In the ninth grade, I went in for my first group interview for a leadership position as a shy girl. Not standing a chance against competitive applicants, I came out of the interview with an upset look. Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself.
This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little.
4. Throughout the Junior year, what was the author’s major concern?
A. Pressure from choosing AP classes. B. Performance in group interviews.
C. Competition with seniors. D. Recognition by colleges.
5. The author chose fewer AP classes because of _______.
A. her own understanding of success B. her desire for academic challenges
C. her strong urge to follow the crowd D. her dream of entering a top university
6. Which would best describe the author’s first group interview?
A. Dignifying. B. Rewarding. C. Engaging. D. Relaxing.
7. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Everyone is the maker of their own success.
B. Success favours those with a golden heart.
C. Success knocks at your door only once.
D. A college holds the key to success.
C
Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?”
To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked.
Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”.
This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together.
There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well.
8. Why did the author carry out 10 years of research?
A. To dismiss national concerns. B. To check out a potential bias.
C. To enhance human communication. D. To develop harmonious relationships.
9. What is one effect of people’s liking gap?
A. Fewer chances of new projects. B. Underestimation of their ability.
C. Bad relationships with people around. D. Low willingness to interact with others.
10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A. Restate opinions. B. Deliver warnings. C. Give suggestions. D. Make a summary.
11. Which might be the best title for the text?
A. Liking Gap May Influence Work Performances
B. First Impressions Rely On Initial Conversations
C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think
D. How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume
D
In the early 2000s, David Baker, a professor at the University of Washington, devoted himself to the field of protein (蛋白质) design. He developed the Rosetta software, a significant breakthrough at that time. However, accurately predicting protein structures remained a huge challenge. The complex structures of proteins, determined by amino acid (氨基酸) orders, held numerous secrets that had puzzled scientists for decades, and unlocking them was the key to understanding life at a tiny particle level.
In 2016, at DeepMind, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper decided to address this problem. They gathered a team of brilliant minds and set out to develop an AI model for protein structure prediction. They analyzed massive protein data, studied how amino acids vary across homologous (同源的) proteins of different species, and integrated evolutionary information into the model. After years of efforts and experiments, they finally developed the AlphaFold2 model in 2020.
AlphaFold2 was revolutionary. It could predict the structures of almost all the 200 million known proteins with remarkable accuracy. Scientists around the world were amazed by its power as the work would otherwise take human beings tens of thousands of years to finish. With the help of AlphaFold2, researchers could now study antibiotic resistance (抗药性) more deeply and design enzymes (酶) that could break down plastics. By seeing the exact structure of proteins involved in defending bacteria, for example, drug developers could create medicines that outwit bacteria’s resistance strategies. And when it came to plastic-breaking enzymes, understanding their structure enabled scientists to work at their active sites for more efficient breakdown.
In 2024, the Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper. Their work has not only uncovered protein structures but also opened up new horizons for the fields of medicine, biotechnology and materials science.
12. What was a major challenge in protein science before AlphaFold2?
A. Determining amino acid orders of proteins.
B. Designing software like Rosetta for protein analysis.
C. Accurately figuring out the shapes of proteins.
D. Studying antibiotic resistance with AI models.
13. What made AlphaFold2 different from previous approaches?
A. It relied only on experimental data from one species.
B. It used evolutionary information from homologous proteins.
C. It required thousands of years to complete the predictions.
D. It was developed by David Baker at the University of Washington.
14. What does the underlined word “outwit” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Defeat. B. Strengthen. C. Copy. D. Ignore.
15. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?
A. Rosetta has contributed greatly to early protein research work.
B. AlphaFold2 is widely applied in medicine and material science.
C. Protein structure prediction enabled new scientific advances.
D. The Nobel Prize honored work on protein structure prediction.

My first step of redefining success began with course registrations. It is a well-known fact, especially in my school, that Junior year is the time of packing many AP classes into the schedule. When asked why they chose so many AP classes, my friends responded: “I don’t know.” They themselves don’t know why they are following the crowd and longing for the pressures of academic difficulty. Therefore, they do not feel the satisfaction of being academically challenged.
Completing many courses no longer brings out the feeling of success because more than four AP classes per year is a norm set by top universities. Determined to follow my instincts (本能) on what I felt success means, I only chose two classes that I knew I would enjoy. The feeling of success was no longer attached to what grade I received but to the pure joy of learning.
Even my failures are attached to a feeling of success; after I take a step back and look at the big picture, I see them as a launching pad (平台) for my next big achievement. In the ninth grade, I went in for my first group interview for a leadership position as a shy girl. Not standing a chance against competitive applicants, I came out of the interview with an upset look. Nevertheless, this interview wasn’t a wasted opportunity. I talked to one of the senior applicants who answered questions in a way that reflected the faith she had in herself.
This year, with an open mind and new knowledge in mind, I walked into another group interview while telling myself I was that cool senior. I managed to secure a leadership position. Ultimately, success came little by little.
4. Throughout the Junior year, what was the author’s major concern?
A. Pressure from choosing AP classes. B. Performance in group interviews.
C. Competition with seniors. D. Recognition by colleges.
5. The author chose fewer AP classes because of _______.
A. her own understanding of success B. her desire for academic challenges
C. her strong urge to follow the crowd D. her dream of entering a top university
6. Which would best describe the author’s first group interview?
A. Dignifying. B. Rewarding. C. Engaging. D. Relaxing.
7. What can we learn from this passage?
A. Everyone is the maker of their own success.
B. Success favours those with a golden heart.
C. Success knocks at your door only once.
D. A college holds the key to success.
【答案】4. D 5. A 6. B 7. A

C
Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?”
To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research. In our studies, participants in the UK talked with someone they had never met before. Afterward, they were asked how much they liked their conversation partner and how much they believed that their conversation partner liked them. This allowed us to compare how much people believed they were liked to how much they were actually liked.
Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”.
This bias (偏见) may seem like something that would occur only in initial interactions, but its effects extend far beyond a first impression. Surprisingly, the liking gap can constantly affect a variety of relationships, including interactions with coworkers, long after the initial conversations have taken place. Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together.
There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well.
8. Why did the author carry out 10 years of research?
A. To dismiss national concerns. B. To check out a potential bias.
C. To enhance human communication. D. To develop harmonious relationships.
9. What is one effect of people’s liking gap?
A. Fewer chances of new projects. B. Underestimation of their ability.
C. Bad relationships with people around. D. Low willingness to interact with others.
10. What does the author intend to do in the last paragraph?
A. Restate opinions. B. Deliver warnings. C. Give suggestions. D. Make a summary.
11. Which might be the best title for the text?
A. Liking Gap May Influence Work Performances
B. First Impressions Rely On Initial Conversations
C. People Probably Like You More Than You Think
D. How People Like You Matters Less Than You Assume
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了什么是“好感认知差距”以及这种心态对人们社交关系的影响。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Initial conversations can have a huge impact on how relationships develop over time. People are often stuck in the impressions they think they might have made the minute they finish speaking with someone for the first time: “Did they like me or were they just being polite?” “Were they deep in thought or deeply bored?”(最初的对话会对关系的发展产生巨大的影响。人们常常会陷入自己第一次和别人说话时留下的印象中:“他们是喜欢我还是只是出于礼貌?”“他们是在沉思还是很无聊?”)”以及第二段“To find out whether these worries are necessary, we have conducted nearly 10 years of research.(为了弄清楚这些担忧是否有必要,我们进行了近10年的研究)”可知,作者进行10年的研究是为了找出潜在的偏见。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Having a larger liking gap is associated with being less willing to ask workmates for help, less willing to provide workmates with open and honest feedback, and less willing to work on another project together.(好感认知差距越大,就越不愿意向同事寻求帮助,越不愿意向同事提供公开和诚实的反馈,越不愿意一起完成另一个项目)”可知,好感认知差距的一个影响是与他人互动的意愿低。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“There are numerous strategies to minimize your biased feelings. One place to start is shifting your focus of attention. Try to direct your attention to your conversation partner, be genuinely curious about them, ask them more questions, and really listen to their answers. The more you’re zeroed in on the other person, and the less you’re focused on yourself, the better your conversation will be and the less your mind will turn to all the things you think you didn’t do well.(有很多策略可以减少你的偏见。可以从转移你的注意力开始。试着把你的注意力转移到你的谈话对象身上,真诚地对他们感到好奇,问他们更多的问题,并认真倾听他们的回答。你越关注对方,越少关注自己,你们的对话就会越好,你也就越不会去想那些你认为自己做得不好的事情)”可知,作者在最后一段想给出建议。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Time and time again, we found that people left their conversations with negative feelings about the impression they made. That is, people systematically underestimate how much their conversation partners like them and enjoy their company — a false belief we call the “liking gap”.(我们一次又一次地发现,人们在结束谈话时对自己留下的印象感到消极。也就是说,人们系统性地低估了交谈对象对自己的喜爱程度和对陪伴的享受程度——这种错误的信念我们称之为“好感认知差距”)”结合文章主要说明了什么是“好感认知差距”以及这种心态对人们社交关系的影响。可知,C选项“人们可能比你想象的更喜欢你”最符合文章标题。故选C。

In the early 2000s, David Baker, a professor at the University of Washington, devoted himself to the field of protein (蛋白质) design. He developed the Rosetta software, a significant breakthrough at that time. However, accurately predicting protein structures remained a huge challenge. The complex structures of proteins, determined by amino acid (氨基酸) orders, held numerous secrets that had puzzled scientists for decades, and unlocking them was the key to understanding life at a tiny particle level.
In 2016, at DeepMind, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper decided to address this problem. They gathered a team of brilliant minds and set out to develop an AI model for protein structure prediction. They analyzed massive protein data, studied how amino acids vary across homologous (同源的) proteins of different species, and integrated evolutionary information into the model. After years of efforts and experiments, they finally developed the AlphaFold2 model in 2020.
AlphaFold2 was revolutionary. It could predict the structures of almost all the 200 million known proteins with remarkable accuracy. Scientists around the world were amazed by its power as the work would otherwise take human beings tens of thousands of years to finish. With the help of AlphaFold2, researchers could now study antibiotic resistance (抗药性) more deeply and design enzymes (酶) that could break down plastics. By seeing the exact structure of proteins involved in defending bacteria, for example, drug developers could create medicines that outwit bacteria’s resistance strategies. And when it came to plastic-breaking enzymes, understanding their structure enabled scientists to work at their active sites for more efficient breakdown.
In 2024, the Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper. Their work has not only uncovered protein structures but also opened up new horizons for the fields of medicine, biotechnology and materials science.
12. What was a major challenge in protein science before AlphaFold2?
A. Determining amino acid orders of proteins.
B. Designing software like Rosetta for protein analysis.
C. Accurately figuring out the shapes of proteins.
D. Studying antibiotic resistance with AI models.
13. What made AlphaFold2 different from previous approaches?
A. It relied only on experimental data from one species.
B. It used evolutionary information from homologous proteins.
C. It required thousands of years to complete the predictions.
D. It was developed by David Baker at the University of Washington.
14. What does the underlined word “outwit” in paragraph 3 most probably mean?
A. Defeat. B. Strengthen. C. Copy. D. Ignore.
15. Which of the following best summarizes the main idea of the passage?
A. Rosetta has contributed greatly to early protein research work.
B. AlphaFold2 is widely applied in medicine and material science.
C. Protein structure prediction enabled new scientific advances.
D. The Nobel Prize honored work on protein structure prediction.
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文介绍蛋白质结构预测曾是科研难题,科学家研发AlphaFold2实现重大突破,该技术推动多领域发展,三位相关研究者斩获 2024 年诺贝尔化学奖。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“He developed the Rosetta software, a significant breakthrough at that time. However, accurately predicting protein structures remained a huge challenge. (他研发出了Rosetta软件,这在当时是重大突破。然而,精准预测蛋白质结构依旧是一项巨大难题。)”可知,蛋白质结构即蛋白质的形态外形,所以AlphaFold2出现前蛋白科学的主要难题是精准弄清蛋白质的形态。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“They analyzed massive protein data, studied how amino acids vary across homologous (同源的) proteins of different species, and integrated evolutionary information into the model. (他们分析海量蛋白质数据,研究不同物种同源蛋白间氨基酸的差异,并将进化信息整合进模型之中。)”可知,AlphaFold2与以往方法的不同之处在于它运用了同源蛋白的进化信息。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段“By seeing the exact structure of proteins involved in defending bacteria, for example, drug developers could create medicines that outwit bacteria’s resistance strategies. (举例来说,通过看清细菌防御相关蛋白质的精准结构,药物研发人员能够制造出药物,从而outwit细菌的耐药机制。)”可知,药物的作用是击败细菌抗药性,所以猜测outwit此处意为“战胜、击败”,对应Defeat。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段讲述早期蛋白预测存在巨大难题、第二段介绍AlphaFold2研发过程、第三段介绍模型带来的科研突破,再根据最后一段“In 2024, the Nobel Committee awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry to David Baker, Demis Hassabis and John Jumper. Their work has not only uncovered protein structures but also opened up new horizons for the fields of medicine, biotechnology and materials science. (2024年,诺贝尔委员会将诺贝尔化学奖颁给戴维・贝克、德米斯・哈萨比斯与约翰・江珀。他们的研究不仅揭开了蛋白质结构的奥秘,还为医药、生物科技与材料科学领域开辟了全新方向。)”可知,全文脉络:蛋白结构预测曾是科研难题→AlphaFold2攻克该难题→该技术带动医药、生物、材料多领域科研突破,所以整体核心是蛋白质结构预测推动了全新的科学进展。

【导语】主要讲述作者与十年好友产生误会、化解矛盾的经历,并从中领悟到维系人际关系的道理。
【36题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:上个月,我和我认识十年的最好的朋友莉莉产生了误会。此处为非限制性定语从句,先行词Lily指人,关系词在从句中作宾语,所以用关系代词who。故填who。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:她因为我没有帮她完成一个项目而批评我。介词for后接动名词作宾语,否定形式在动名词前加not,所以用not helping。故填not helping。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:我感到一阵尴尬,不知道如何化解这场矛盾。介词of后接名词作宾语,embarrass对应的名词形式为embarrassment,意为“尴尬”。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:担心当下的局面,我向妈妈寻求帮助。此处为非谓语动词作状语,根据固定搭配be concerned about可知,concern与逻辑主语I之间为被动关系,所以此处使用过去分词concerned,置于句首首字母大写。
【40题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:妈妈建议我深呼吸、冷静下来。此处为固定搭配advise sb. to do sth.,意为“建议某人做某事”,所以用动词不定式to take作宾补。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:她说:“如果你真诚道歉,她将会原谅你。”此处为条件状语从句遵循主将从现,从句为一般现在时,主句用一般将来时,所以谓语动词为will forgive。
【42题详解】
考查冠词。句意:我也告诉她,我们的友谊是我社交生活的核心。固定搭配 the core of...意为“……的核心”。
【43题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意:通过这次经历,我明白了在维系人际关系方面,沟通比骄傲更重要。根据空后than可知,此处用形容词比较级,essential的比较级为more essential。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:幸运的是,现在每当我感到生气时,我都会提醒自己三思而后言。此处修饰整个句子,需要副词作状语,fortunate对应的副词fortunately,意为“幸运的是”,置于句首首字母大写。
【45题详解】
考查反身代词。句意:幸运的是,现在每当我感到生气时,我都会提醒自己三思而后言。此处指代主语I本身,需要反身代词作宾语,所以用myself。
