W: I spend about the same amount of time exercising as I did before. However, instead of doing it between work and dinner, I get up at 5 a.m. and exercise then. M: Do you spend more time with family now? W: Yes, particularly my sisters. We used to go to the cinema every week. That isn’t always possible now, so we have film nights at my house instead. There’s an outdoor pool in town and you can swim and watch films there. We’re going to try that soon. M: Do you have any time-saving advice? W: There are things people do, like checking emails or messages on the bus to work or school and making a list of things to do the next day. But the thing that works well for me is having lots of clothes which are the same, so you don’t have to think about what to put on in the morning! 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 18.

C 【解析】 【原文】Good evening, everyone. I’m Jennifer Green. Thanks for joining us. In today’s edition, Our Perfect Life, our guest is Brock Bastian, a social psychologist from the University of Melbourne. Professor Bastian’s research focuses on pain, happiness and morality. Recently, he published a book on the role of pain in promoting pleasure. The title of the book is The Other Side of Happiness. In this book, he argues that as we seek to escape pain or sorrow, we’re weakening ourselves and may lose our adaptability to deal with pain in the future. Painful experiences are in fact vital for our development and how we face the unavoidable challenges ahead and they play a key role in helping us to develop our ability to feel truly happy. Now, let’s welcome Professor Bastian to talk about his ideas in the book. 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 Community Volunteers Program Community Volunteers Program is a brand-new (全新的) service opportunity that engages volunteers in weekly service with community-based organizations in neighborhoods surrounding the Boston campus.

His “ExtraordinaryVoyages (航海)” series transport readers on grand adventures to the far reaches of Earth and beyond. But Verne did more than just tell entertaining stories — he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writings. For example, in the 1889 short story In the Year 2889, Verne painted a picture of a highly networked world with global multimedia communications. He described the “phonotelephone” which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent: “Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.” Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction. Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the “hard science fiction” of the 20th century and beyond. Verne is often thought of as a technological optimist, a champion of scientific progress and innovation. But his writings also reveal another perspective. Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. CaptainNemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. ForVerne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction. The spirit of adventure in Verne’s timeless stories will live on, continuing to inspire generations to push the boundaries of the possible and create the world of tomorrow. That is perhaps the greatest achievement of the extraordinary voyages of Jules Verne. 24. How does Mr. Smith contact his wife in In the Year 2889? A. By holding an in-person talk. B. By making a long-distance call. C. By sending a letter back home. D. By having an instant video chat. 25. What is the“hard science fiction” based on? A. The unrealistic fantasies. B. The fictional technologies. C. The latest research findings. D. The imagined future worlds. 26. What can we infer about Verne from Captain Nemo’s story? A. He is disappointed with human nature. B. He is aware of the danger of technology. C. He is in favour of scientific development. D. He is different from the writers of his time. 27. Which of the following best describes Jules Verne according to the text? A. Strong-willed. B. Fantasy-seeking. C. Positive-minded. D. Forward-thinking. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. D 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文，文章介绍了科幻小说之父之一Jules Verne及其作品。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“He described the ‘phonotelephone’ which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent(他描述了可以远距离传送声音和图像的‘电话机’。主人公Fritz Napoleon Smith能够通过这种技术轻松地与他在另一个大陆的妻子交流)”和第三段中“Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.(Smith先生能够清楚地看到他的妻子，尽管他和她相隔很远……Smimth夫人立即出现在长焦屏幕上，脸上带着微笑，眼里含着泪水)”可知，Smith和妻子交流时使用可以远距离传送声音和图像的“电话机”，妻子的脸会出现在屏幕上，所以Smith是通过即时视频聊天和妻子联系，故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中“Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the ‘hard science fiction’ of the 20th century and beyond.(与同时代的其他作家写更多的幻想或超自然的故事不同，Verne在他的未来愿景中追求现实主义，总是基于前沿科学和他自己的广泛研究。这为20世纪及以后的‘硬科幻小说’奠定了基础)”可知，“硬科幻小说”以最新的研究结果为基础，故选C。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中“Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. Captain Nemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. For Verne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction.(他的许多故事都描写了一位才华横溢但疯狂的科学家，他的发明最终带来的坏处大于好处。在《海底两万里》中，尼莫船长使用他的潜艇猛烈攻击船只。Verne认为，人类的本性决定了技术是善的力量还是毁灭的源泉)”可知，Verne描写尼莫船长使用他的潜艇猛烈攻击船只，这是描写科技带来的坏处，推知他意识到了科技的危险，故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writing(他还在他的作品中预言了100多种现代发明和技术)”和第四段中“Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction.(Verne以技术为基础的冒险故事代表了一种通过小说想象未来的新方法)”可知，Verne的作品预言了100多种现代发明和技术，以技术为基础想象未来世界，故他具有前瞻性思维，故选D。 C A wave of startups say seaweed is a solution to climate change - able to absorb atmospheric carbon, provide raw materials for biofuels, and feed the world - no fertilizers (化肥), fresh water, or even land required. Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor, where the carbon they contain will remain stored for 800 years or more. Running Tide was founded by Marty Odlin, an engineer and fourth-generation commercial fisherman. The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than nearly every other oceanic region, and Odlin has seen the changes firsthand. About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularised the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. “It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we ’ re going to get off fossil (化石的) fuels in the next 50 years, ” he recalls thinking. “We’ re going to have to pull it down.” Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. “Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking, ”says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, “but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea. ” 28. What can we learn about Running Tide's system? A. It removes carbon from seaweed. B. It turns seaweed into fertilizers. C. It sinks seaweed into the ocean floor. D. It stores seaweed as food sources. 29. What did Lackner's speech lead Odlin to do? A. Monitor changes in oceanic regions. B. Reduce commercial fishing industry. C. Set restrictions on the use of fossil fuels. D. Remove carbon from the atmosphere. 30. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a carbon replacement method. B. The underlying logic of sinking seaweeds. C. Examples of massive seaweed forests. D. The carbon absorbing ability of seaweeds. 31. Why does the author quote Kristen Davis? A. To prove Odlin's opinion. B. To emphasise the climate crisis. C. To advocate scientists' cooperation. D. To present the issue objectively. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. B 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了利用海藻对抗气候变化的新兴创业项目和其背后的科学原理、挑战及专家观点。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor (总部位于缅因州的奔潮公司正在研究一种系统，该系统最终将这些附着着长串海藻的浮标沉入海底)”可知，该系统会将海草沉入海底。故选C。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段的“About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularized the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. ‘It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we’re going to get off fossil fuels in the next 50 years,’ he recalls thinking. ‘We’re going to have to pull it down.’ (大约15年前，Odlin听了物理学家Klaus Lackner的演讲，Lackner普及了从大气中去除碳的想法。Odlin听后觉得很有道理，认为在接下来的50年里，我们无法摆脱化石燃料，因此我们必须从大气中去除碳。)”可知，Lackner的演讲促使Odlin想要从大气中去除碳。故选D。 【30题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段内容“Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. (使用海藻来减少碳排放将是一个优雅的解决方案——如果它有效的话。海藻林总共覆盖了大约200万平方公里，吸收的碳与亚马逊雨林一样多。但是大部分的储存都是短暂的。当海藻被收割、被动物吃掉或被冲上岸时，其储存的碳被释放回大气中。至少在理论上，奔流大潮的模型会把储存的碳带到海底，在那里它们可以保存数百年，慢慢分解。)”可知，这段主要讲述了下沉海藻的基本逻辑，B选项“海藻下沉的潜在逻辑”可以概括本段的主要内容。故选B。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段的“Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. ‘Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking,’ says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, ‘but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea.’ (一些科学家对在基本的科学、环境和监管问题得到解答之前仓促行动持谨慎态度。加州大学欧文分校教授克里斯汀•戴维斯说，气候变化正在加剧，人们感到恐慌，但科学还没有真正证实这是个好想法。)”可知，克里斯汀•戴维斯指出一些基础科学、环境和监管问题未解决前就匆忙推进利用海草解决气候变化问题并不明智，因为科学依据还不足，所以作者引用她的话是为了从另一个角度客观地呈现这一问题，避免只强调利用海草解决问题的积极面。故选D。 D New era requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us? Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re awesome at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet. The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parent it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine boosting. And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace and capitalize on future creations. This adoption is critical from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the dynamics of AI and search are changing for just about everyone. Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in projecting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology? The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, embrace and assimilate technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to Facebook. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to incorporate technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it. While this shift brings challenges, it’s unstoppable. As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable edge. 32. What is TQ according to the text? A. Speed of learning new languages. B. Skill of fixing high-tech products. C. Talent to follow modern changes. D. Ability to apply new technologies. 33. What do the examples in paragraph 3 serve to show? A. TQ is applicable in diverse situations. B. Dynamics of AI will be beneficial for everyone. C. AI is likely to bridge the generational gap. D. Older people tend to struggle with technology. 34. What does the underlined word “assimilate” in the fourth paragraph mean? A. Rely on. B. Take in. C. Benefit from. D. Learn about. 35. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Why Are IQ and EQ Important for TQ? B. How Has TQ Changed in the Modern Era? C. What Makes TQ the New Intelligence? D. Where to Start Adapting to TQ Changes? 【答案】32. D 33. A 34. B 35. C 【解析】 【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了TQ 即技术商数，指合理运用各类科技的能力，广泛适用于不同行业。未来 TQ 将与智商、情商并重，成为衡量个人适应科技能力的新标准。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace and capitalize on future creations.( TQ试图量化我们合理运用当前技术的能力，并快速适应、接纳并充分利用未来创造的技术。)”可知，TQ的核心是运用现有新技术、适应并利用未来科技的能力。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parent it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine boosting. And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace and capitalize on future creations. This adoption is critical from a variety of perspectives, from social to business.( 这些例子随处可见，且日益普遍：对家长来说，可能是家校视频课程；对品牌经理而言，可能是搜索引擎推广；对临床医生来说，则可能是人工智能在CT扫描分析中的作用。TQ试图量化我们合理运用当前技术的能力，并快速适应、接纳并充分利用未来创造的技术。这种应用从社会到商业等多个层面都至关重要。)”可知，第三段首句点明例子普遍且越来越常见，随后分别列举了家长、品牌经理、临床医生三个不同职业、不同场景下的技术应用案例，以此论证 TQ覆盖生活、商业、医疗等多个领域，在不同场景中都具备实用价值。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线单词句中“The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, embrace and … technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future.( 随着我们加速迈向未来，孩子和教师能否理解、接纳并……技术，将成为他们生活的重要标志。)”可知，三个动词呈递进逻辑：先理解、再接纳、最终吸收掌握。assimilate本义为 “吸收、同化、内化”，此处指消化、掌握技术，与 B选项take in（吸收、领会）语义最贴近。 【35题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，全文围绕“TQ（技术商数）”展开：先引出概念、定义内涵，再举例说明其广泛的应用场景，最后论述其重要性 —— 未来将与 IQ、EQ 并列，成为衡量个人能力的全新维度，重塑人们的生活与工作。文章核心是阐释 TQ为何能成为一种新型能力指标。由此可知，这篇文章适合的标题是“是什么让TQ成为新型智能？”。 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。 Career coaches provide a series of services, from helping you figure out what you want to do to exploring chances for career growth. ____36____ To make it all worthwhile, some helpful tips are offered here to help you choose a right coach.

Career coaches can help you decide how to make full use of your professional potential.（职业教练可以帮助你决定如何充分利用你的职业潜力。）符合语境。故选G。 【38题详解】 由后文“Go into your coaching relationship with an idea of what you think you need from them, but be willing to think about their guidance on what other measures may make you more successful- for example, Business Value training to make sure you’ll be satisfied in a new job.”（在你的指导关系中，你可以从他们那里了解到你认为你需要什么，但也要愿意考虑他们对哪些其他措施可能会让你更成功的指导——例如，商业价值培训，以确保你在新工作中感到满意。）可知此处“what you think you need”和F项“which services you need”相对应。F. Know which services you need and be open to services you don't know you need.（了解你需要哪些服务，并对你不知道自己需要的服务持开放态度。）符合语境。故选F。 【39题详解】 由上文“You may need a coach with career experiences, or you may need one who offers life advice. If you aren't sure what you want, ask questions.”（你可能需要一位有职业经验的教练，或者你可能需要一位提供生活建议的教练。如果你不确定自己想要什么，可以提问。）可知此处“If you aren’t sure what you want, ask questions”可与D项“whether the coach understands your needs”相联系。D. Thus, you can assess whether the coach understands your needs.（因此，你可以评估教练是否理解你的需求。）符合语境。故选D。 【40题详解】 由上文“Some coaches charge more for polishing resumes, while others include that in the overall price.”（一些教练对简历的润色收取更高的费用, 而其他的则包括在总价格中。）可知此处主要讲述的是费用问题，B项“what you’re receiving for the expense”与之对应，B. You need to understand what you’re receiving for the expense.（你需要了解你收到的费用。）符合语境。故选B。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Attending a new school can be a big challenge for any student. ____41____, for 15-year-old Sergio Peralta, he found a group of innovative students who ____42____ his life.

Originating 57. shown 58. are shaped 59. patterns 60. safety 61. coastal 62. which##that 63. in 64. elegantly 65. to preserve 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍中国传统民间艺术鱼灯的起源、寓意、制作工艺、民俗用途以及当代传承与创新发展现状。 【56题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这些灯笼源自古老的传统，象征着年年有余，这是一个谐音梗，因为汉字“鱼”的发音与“余”相同。此处为非谓语动词作状语，originate与逻辑主语these lanterns之间是主动关系，所以用现在分词originating作状语，位于句首，首字母需大写。 【57题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：它们常在农历新年、中秋节等节日展出，寄托着人们对富足和睦的期盼。此处为非谓语动词作状语，show与逻辑主语they之间是被动关系，所以用过去分词shown。 【58题详解】 考查动词语态。句意：鱼灯由竹框、丝绸或彩纸制成，被塑造成各式各样的造型，并装饰有精美的图案。此处为谓语动词，主语fish lanterns与shape之间为被动关系，句子陈述客观事实，用一般现在时的被动语态，主语为复数，所以谓语动词为are shaped。 【59题详解】 考查名词复数。句意：鱼灯由竹框、丝绸或彩纸制成，被塑造成各式各样的造型，并装饰有精美的图案。pattern为可数名词，此处泛指多种图案，所以用复数形式patterns。 【60题详解】 考查名词。句意：传统鱼灯使用蜡烛或油灯，而现代款式配备LED灯以保障安全。介词for后接名词作宾语，safe对应的名词为safety，意为“安全”。 【61题详解】 考查形容词。句意：在福建、浙江等沿海地区，鱼灯舞是祭祀海神、庆祝丰收的重要仪式活动。此处修饰名词regions，需要形容词作定语，coast对应的形容词为coastal，意为“沿海的”。故填coastal。 【62题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：在福建、浙江等沿海地区，鱼灯舞是祭祀海神、庆祝丰收的重要仪式活动。此处为限制性定语从句，先行词为observances，指代事物，从句中缺少主语，所以用关系代词which/that。 【63题详解】 考查介词。句意：舞者手持明亮的灯笼，和谐舞动，营造出一片光海的错觉。此处为固定搭配in harmony，意为“和谐”，所以此处为介词in。 【64题详解】 考查副词。句意：如今，鱼灯优雅地衔接传统与创新。此处修饰动词bridge，需要副词作状语，elegant对应的副词为elegantly，意为“优雅地”。 【65题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：艺术家尝试环保材料与数字投影技术，学校和社区传授制作技艺以保护这一非物质文化遗产。此处为非谓语动词作状语，结合句意，此处表示表示传授技艺的目的，所以用动词不定式to preserve作目的状语。 第四部分 写作（满分15分） 66．第一节（满分15分） 66. 为拓宽国际视野，你校英文社团举办主题演讲活动，请你以李华的身份，以Sharing Warmth Across the Globe为题写一篇演讲稿参赛。写作内容包含以下基础信息： 1．中国多年面向世界的各类援助行动及意义； 2．结合青年身份表达你的感悟与看法。 注意： （1）写作词数应为100左右； （2）可适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 Sharing Warmth Across the Globe _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Thank you for listening! 【答案】范文 Sharing Warmth Across the Globe Good morning, respected teachers and dear classmates, my name is Li Hua. I’m honored to deliver a speech on this topic. For decades, China has reached out to nations trapped in poverty and crises. Aside from delivering medical supplies and professional teams to fight epidemics, China has also helped build local infrastructure, steadily promoting the economic and social development of needy countries. What lies behind these persistent efforts is China’s sincere wish for global common prosperity. As contemporary teenagers, we are supposed to deeply understand the value of global solidarity. On one hand, we should broaden our international vision and embrace diverse cultures. On the other hand, we need to equip ourselves with solid knowledge. Only by shouldering youthful responsibilities can we pass on kindness and contribute more to a harmonious global community in the future. Thank you for listening! Sharing Warmth Across the Globe Good morning, respected teachers and dear classmates, my name is Li Hua. Greatly privileged to deliver my speech here. For years, China offers unconditional aid worldwide: we send medical teams amid crises and build infrastructure to support local growth, which highlights our pursuit of shared global development. In my eyes, this selfless help conveys genuine friendship rather than self-interest. As young Chinese, we ought to appreciate such noble values. We can read more international stories to understand global needs, communicate friendly ideas with overseas friends, and commit ourselves to learning well so we can contribute to world solidarity in the future. Small efforts from teenagers will jointly create a warmer global community.

Outside, snow fell heavily, covering the ground in white. Inside, 12 passengers sat in panic — city people, unprepared for mountain weather. I was seventeen, traveling alone to visit my grandmother in the hospital, carrying her old locket (盒式项链坠) that she’d asked me to bring — her most treasured possession, containing photos of her and my late grandfather. My phone showed no signal. The driver tried the engine. Nothing. He checked the fuel, the battery. “It’s dead,” he announced. “We wait for rescue.” Ten minutes passed. The wind grew stronger. People wrapped themselves in coats. An elderly woman shivered violently. A mother tried to keep her crying baby warm. Obviously, we needed shelter. Then the man in the back row stood up. “I’m Tom,” he said. “I live three kilometers up the road. Follow me.” He was about fifty, rough hands, work clothes, a weathered face. Some refused, afraid of a stranger. But the elderly woman stood. “I’d rather choose to trust than freeze here,” she said. “I’ll go.” We walked in a line, holding hands, Tom leading with a flashlight. The snow reached our knees. He stopped to help those who’d fallen, carrying the elderly woman on his back. His house was small — a single room with a wood stove, but warm. The driver immediately spotted a phone on the wall and called the rescue station. Then Tom made tea and shared his bread and dried meat. “Why help us?” someone asked. He pointed to a photo — a young woman, smiling. “My daughter. She was helped once by strangers in a storm. She said the world runs on kindness.” Hours later, the rescue team arrived with a bus, its lights flashing. As we prepared to board, I reached into my pocket — the locket was gone. I panicked. I couldn’t face my grandmother’s disappointed eyes. “I have to go back. It must be in Tom’s house.” 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I ran through the snow toward his door, the locket heavy on my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The rescue bus waited, headlights cutting through the darkness. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 I ran through the snow toward his door, the locket heavy on my mind. The door opened before I could knock. Tom stood there, holding the gold chain in his rough palm. “Looking for this?” My heart leaped. I grabbed it, the metal warm from his hand. Relief flooded through me, sharp and sweet. The rescue bus horn sounded in the distance. I pressed my grandmother’s dried fruit into his hands — all I had to give — and spoke soft thanks. He smiled, weathered face softening. “Tell her to get well,” he said. I nodded, turned, and ran through the snow. The rescue bus waited, headlights cutting through the darkness. I climbed on, breathless, the locket safe in my pocket. Through the window, I watched Tom stand in his doorway, growing smaller, then disappearing into the night. I never saw him again. But years later, as a doctor, I kept that memory. Every winter, when patients arrived scared, I offered them tea and listened to their stories. “The world runs on kindness,” I’d say, remembering Tom’s rough hands holding my treasure. It didn’t matter whose words they were. The kindness was real. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了大雪天作者乘坐的大巴半路抛锚，村民汤姆热心收留众人避寒，临行前作者弄丢祖母珍贵的项链坠，折返后汤姆好心归还，深受感动的作者此后坚守善意、传递温暖的故事。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写我冒雪折返汤姆家、汤姆主动归还项链坠、我向他真诚道谢的暖心过程。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写我乘车离去、目送汤姆身影远去，以及多年后我传承善意、传递温暖的感悟与升华。 2.续写线索：冒雪折返——失物归还——真诚致谢——目送离别——传承善意 ——感悟温暖 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①握着：hold/clutch/grasp ②抓住：grab/snatch/seize ③微笑：smile/grin/beam 情绪类 ①宽慰：relief/comfort ②害怕的：scared/frightened/terrified 【点睛】【高分句型1】Tom stood there, holding the gold chain in his rough palm.

B Jules Verne is widely regarded as one of the fathers of science fiction. His “ExtraordinaryVoyages (航海)” series transport readers on grand adventures to the far reaches of Earth and beyond. But Verne did more than just tell entertaining stories — he also predicted over 100modern-day inventions and technologies in his writings. For example, in the 1889 short story In the Year 2889, Verne painted a picture of a highly networked world with global multimedia communications. He described the “phonotelephone” which sent sound and images over great distances. The main character, Fritz Napoleon Smith, is able to easily communicate via this technology with his wife on another continent: “Mr. Smith was able distinctly to see his wife despite the distance that separated him from her... Mrs. Smith immediately appeared on the telephotic screen, with her features smiling and her eyes moist (潮湿的) with tears.” Verne’s technically-grounded adventure tales represented a new approach to imagining the future through fiction. Unlike other writers of his day who penned more fanciful or supernatural stories, Verne aimed for realism in his futuristic visions, always basing them on cutting-edge science and his own extensive research. This laid the foundation for the “hard science fiction” of the 20th century and beyond. Verne is often thought of as a technological optimist, a champion of scientific progress and innovation. But his writings also reveal another perspective. Many of his stories feature a brilliant but mad scientist whose inventions ultimately bring more harm than good. CaptainNemo in 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea uses his submarine (潜艇) to violently attack ships. ForVerne human nature determined whether technology would be a force for good or a source of destruction. The spirit of adventure in Verne’s timeless stories will live on, continuing to inspire generations to push the boundaries of the possible and create the world of tomorrow. That is perhaps the greatest achievement of the extraordinary voyages of Jules Verne. 24. How does Mr. Smith contact his wife in In the Year 2889? A. By holding an in-person talk. B. By making a long-distance call. C. By sending a letter back home. D. By having an instant video chat. 25. What is the“hard science fiction” based on? A. The unrealistic fantasies. B. The fictional technologies. C. The latest research findings. D. The imagined future worlds. 26. What can we infer about Verne from Captain Nemo’s story? A. He is disappointed with human nature. B. He is aware of the danger of technology. C. He is in favour of scientific development. D. He is different from the writers of his time. 27. Which of the following best describes Jules Verne according to the text? A. Strong-willed. B. Fantasy-seeking. C. Positive-minded. D. Forward-thinking. C A wave of startups say seaweed is a solution to climate change - able to absorb atmospheric carbon, provide raw materials for biofuels, and feed the world - no fertilizers (化肥), fresh water, or even land required. Running Tide, a Maine-based company, is working on a system that will eventually sink the buoys (浮标), attached with long locks of seaweed, to the deep ocean floor, where the carbon they contain will remain stored for 800 years or more. Running Tide was founded by Marty Odlin, an engineer and fourth-generation commercial fisherman. The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than nearly every other oceanic region, and Odlin has seen the changes firsthand. About 15 years ago, Odlin heard a talk from Klaus Lackner - the physicist who popularised the idea of removing carbon from the atmosphere. It clicked. “It was like, oh, this is right because there’s no way we ’ re going to get off fossil (化石的) fuels in the next 50 years, ” he recalls thinking. “We’ re going to have to pull it down.” Using seaweed to draw down carbon would be an elegant solution - if it works. Seaweed forests collectively cover an estimated two million square kilometers and absorb as much carbon as the Amazon rainforest. But much of that storage is short-lived. When the seaweed is harvested, eaten by animals, or washes ashore, its stored carbon is released back into the atmosphere. Running Tide’s model, in theory at least, would take that stored carbon and sink it to the ocean floor where it would remain for centuries, breaking down slowly. Some scientists are careful about rushing ahead before fundamental scientific, environmental, and regulatory questions are answered. “Climate change is intensifying, and people are panicking, ”says Kristen Davis, a professor of University of California Irvine, “but the science is not there yet to actually confirm that it’s a good idea. ” 28. What can we learn about Running Tide's system? A. It removes carbon from seaweed. B. It turns seaweed into fertilizers. C. It sinks seaweed into the ocean floor. D. It stores seaweed as food sources. 29. What did Lackner's speech lead Odlin to do? A. Monitor changes in oceanic regions. B. Reduce commercial fishing industry. C. Set restrictions on the use of fossil fuels. D. Remove carbon from the atmosphere. 30. What does paragraph 3 mainly talk about? A. Steps of a carbon replacement method. B. The underlying logic of sinking seaweeds. C. Examples of massive seaweed forests. D. The carbon absorbing ability of seaweeds. 31. Why does the author quote Kristen Davis? A. To prove Odlin's opinion. B. To emphasise the climate crisis. C. To advocate scientists' cooperation. D. To present the issue objectively. D New era requires a new vocabulary. Will we still talk about the “mobile” phone when all phones are mobile, or when they are implanted within us? Technology is everywhere nowadays, especially at work. Some people are really good at using all the cool new tools that keep popping up. They have something called a TQ, or technology quotient. Think of it like a superpower for understanding the latest tech stuff that our great-grandparents would have found really impossible. Having a high TQ means you’re awesome at using all the cool new things that not everyone knows about yet. The examples are common and becoming more and more frequent. For the parent it might be a home-school video class. For the brand manager it might be search engine boosting. And for the clinician, it might be the role of artificial intelligence in supporting the analysis of a CT scan. TQ attempts to quantify our ability to make sensible use of current technologies and to quickly adapt, embrace and capitalize on future creations. This adoption is critical from a variety of perspectives, from social to business. One trip into the world of ChatGPT and we can see how the dynamics of AI and search are changing for just about everyone. Any Mom or Dad can understand the value of IQ and EQ in projecting the potential for a child’s success. But what about technology? The ability for the child and the teacher to understand, embrace and assimilate technology will be a defining aspect of their lives as we speed into the future. We are increasingly defined by technology and our active participation in everything from smart phones to Facebook. It might just be time for the basic human needs of food, water and shelter to incorporate technology too. And when that happens, it just might be a good idea to measure it. While this shift brings challenges, it’s unstoppable. As TQ rises, it will combine with IQ and EQ, reshaping how we live, work, and learn — turning adaptability with tech into a measurable edge. 32. What is TQ according to the text? A. Speed of learning new languages. B. Skill of fixing high-tech products. C. Talent to follow modern changes. D. Ability to apply new technologies. 33. What do the examples in paragraph 3 serve to show? A. TQ is applicable in diverse situations. B. Dynamics of AI will be beneficial for everyone. C. AI is likely to bridge the generational gap. D. Older people tend to struggle with technology. 34. What does the underlined word “assimilate” in the fourth paragraph mean? A. Rely on. B. Take in. C. Benefit from. D. Learn about. 35. What might be the best title for the passage? A. Why Are IQ and EQ Important for TQ? B. How Has TQ Changed in the Modern Era? C. What Makes TQ the New Intelligence? D. Where to Start Adapting to TQ Changes? 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。 Career coaches provide a series of services, from helping you figure out what you want to do to exploring chances for career growth. ____36____ To make it all worthwhile, some helpful tips are offered here to help you choose a right coach.

Outside, snow fell heavily, covering the ground in white. Inside, 12 passengers sat in panic — city people, unprepared for mountain weather. I was seventeen, traveling alone to visit my grandmother in the hospital, carrying her old locket (盒式项链坠) that she’d asked me to bring — her most treasured possession, containing photos of her and my late grandfather. My phone showed no signal. The driver tried the engine. Nothing. He checked the fuel, the battery. “It’s dead,” he announced. “We wait for rescue.” Ten minutes passed. The wind grew stronger. People wrapped themselves in coats. An elderly woman shivered violently. A mother tried to keep her crying baby warm. Obviously, we needed shelter. Then the man in the back row stood up. “I’m Tom,” he said. “I live three kilometers up the road. Follow me.” He was about fifty, rough hands, work clothes, a weathered face. Some refused, afraid of a stranger. But the elderly woman stood. “I’d rather choose to trust than freeze here,” she said. “I’ll go.” We walked in a line, holding hands, Tom leading with a flashlight. The snow reached our knees. He stopped to help those who’d fallen, carrying the elderly woman on his back. His house was small — a single room with a wood stove, but warm. The driver immediately spotted a phone on the wall and called the rescue station. Then Tom made tea and shared his bread and dried meat. “Why help us?” someone asked. He pointed to a photo — a young woman, smiling. “My daughter. She was helped once by strangers in a storm. She said the world runs on kindness.” Hours later, the rescue team arrived with a bus, its lights flashing. As we prepared to board, I reached into my pocket — the locket was gone. I panicked. I couldn’t face my grandmother’s disappointed eyes. “I have to go back. It must be in Tom’s house.” 注意：(1)续写词数应为150个左右; (2)请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 I ran through the snow toward his door, the locket heavy on my mind. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The rescue bus waited, headlights cutting through the darkness. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $普通高等学校招生全国统一考试英语听力模拟试题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A、B、C三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。John, at last, the film started five minutes ago.
