This annual event looks back at early American history and celebrates centuries-old traditions. Join the community to experience the rich heritage and various customs of this traditional holiday. Historical Roots The festival dates back to the autumn of 1621 when early European settlers held a three-day harvest celebration. Initially a small local event to welcome a successful harvest after a difficult year, it has now become a nationwide celebration of family and gratitude. Time-honored Traditions The Turkey Feast: On Sunday evening, families gather for a big traditional dinner. Eating turkey and pumpkin pie remains the most famous custom, which became popular across the country in the late 1800s. The Big Parade: On Saturday morning, watch giant balloons and musicians march through the streets. Interestingly, this famous custom actually started in New York in 1924, not in the early colonial days! The Cornucopia Legend: Early settlers used a horn-shaped (角形的) basket filled with fruits to show their wealth. Today, making this autumn decoration remains a beloved family activity. Lecture & Workshop Tickets History Talk: $ 15 (Saturday afternoon — Hear historians share old stories of early America) Autumn Crafting (精心制作): $ 20 (Sunday afternoon — Learn to make traditional cornucopia decorations) Special Offer: Teenagers (aged 13-18) receive a $5 discount on any ticket. Children under 13 can enter all events for free. 1. What is the event mainly intended to do? A. To sell traditional foods and crafts. B. To review and celebrate traditions. C. To teach people how to grow crops. D. To show gratitude to the community. 2. Which custom has the shortest history according to the text? A. The giant balloon parade. B. The big family turkey dinner. C. The three-day harvest celebration. D. The horn-shaped basket decoration. 3. How much should a teenage boy and his parents pay to hear history stories? A. $ 30. B. $ 40. C. $ 45. D. $ 55. 【答案】1. B 2. A 3. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是2026年丰收与遗产节活动的宣传介绍，介绍了感恩节的历史起源、活动包含的经典传统项目、不同活动的票价与优惠政策，吸引公众参与活动。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“This annual event looks back at early American history and celebrates centuries-old traditions.(这个年度活动回顾美国早期历史，庆祝传承数百年的传统)”可知，该活动的主要目的是回顾历史、庆祝感恩节传统。 【2题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The festival dates back to the autumn of 1621 when early European settlers held a three-day harvest celebration.(该节日可以追溯到1621年秋天，当时早期欧洲定居者举办了为期三天的丰收庆祝活动)”可知，三天丰收庆祝活动起源于1621年；根据第三段The Turkey Feast部分中“Eating turkey and pumpkin pie remains the most famous custom, which became popular across the country in the late 1800s.(吃火鸡和南瓜饼是最负盛名的习俗，在19世纪后期在全美流行开来)”可知，家庭火鸡晚餐全国流行始于19世纪后期；根据第四段The Big Parade部分中“Interestingly, this famous custom actually started in New York in 1924, not in the early colonial days!(有趣的是，这个著名习俗实际上1924年才起源于纽约，并非起源于早期殖民时代)”可知，巨型气球游行起源于1924年；根据第五段The Cornucopia Legend部分中“Early settlers used a horn-shaped (角形的) basket filled with fruits to show their wealth.(早期定居者用装满水果的角形篮子来展示财富)”可知，角形篮装饰起源于早期定居者时期，早于1621年。对比四个时间可知，巨型气球游行的历史最短。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据Lecture & Workshop Tickets部分中“History Talk: $ 15 (Saturday afternoon — Hear historians share old stories of early America)(历史讲座：15美元(周六下午——聆听历史学家分享美国早期的古老故事))”以及“Special Offer: Teenagers (aged 13-18) receive a $5 discount on any ticket. Children under 13 can enter all events for free.(特别优惠：13-18岁青少年购买任意门票可享受5美元折扣，13岁以下儿童可免费参加所有活动)”可知，一张历史讲座票原价15美元，一个青少年可享受5美元折扣即仅需10美元，他的父母需要购买两张原价票，总费用为10+15×2=40美元。 B When Derek Poskin first arrived in the historic city of Yangzhou in 2016, he was simply tracing a famous poem by Li Bai. However, the ancient city offered him more than beautiful views; it inspired a deep love for Chinese tea. “Coffee is for work, but tea is for life,” the 28-year-old American often says. What started as a personal interest quickly grew, and as he bought more leaves and teapots, he eventually turned his living room into a warehouse (库房). To share his passion, he launched a side project in 2018, which later became a global tea business. Exploring China’s tea culture, however, was a big challenge. Rather than working through middlemen, Poskin chose to go directly to where the leaves grew. With a leap of faith, he once connected with a young farmer named Zhao via social media and headed to Guafengzhai, a remote village. There, he spent four days hiking through primitive (原始的) forests and learning the leaf fixation process from local families. To better understand the culture, he even lived in Chaozhou for a year to study the art of making clay teapots. Through these journeys, Poskin’s understanding of tea changed from a search for “correctness” to an appreciation for diversity. He realized that Chinese tea culture is not fixed and varies by region: while people in Yangzhou might drink green tea straight from a glass jar, those in Chaozhou prefer elegant tea sets. “Any way you drink tea is the right way,” he says. Now running a tea house named “Empty Cup” in Yangzhou, Poskin also shares his journeys worldwide through videos and a podcast. Looking ahead, he plans to turn his business into a social enterprise (企业) to finance local tea farmers. For young people dreaming of success, he offers a perspective of patience: “Great things take years of practice and improvement. Don’t rush it, and one day everything will come together.” 4. What led to the start of Poskin’s tea business? A. His wish to introduce others to Chinese tea. B. His desire to travel to remote Chinese villages. C. His failure to find a satisfying job in Yangzhou. D. His dream of becoming a famous poet like Li Bai. 5. How does Poskin carry out his tea sourcing work? A. By working with local dealers. B. By employing overseas agents. C. By making field visits to origins. D. By searching on online platforms. 6. What is a key feature of Chinese tea culture according to paragraph 3? A. It features regional differences. B. It demands standard preparation. C. It highlights the beauty of tea sets. D. It focuses on tea making processes. 7. What is Poskin’s future aim for his business? A. To open chain tea shops. B. To develop new tea varieties. C. To be a full-time content creator. D. To fund tea-growing communities. 【答案】4. A 5. C 6. A 7. D 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述美国人德里克因追寻诗句来到扬州，爱上中国茶文化并创业推广中国茶的励志故事。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“To share his passion, he launched a side project in 2018, which later became a global tea business.(为了分享自己的热爱，他在2018年开启了一个副业项目，该项目后来发展成一家全球性茶叶企业。)”可知，他创办茶叶企业的初衷是向他人分享、推广中国茶。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Rather than working through middlemen, Poskin chose to go directly to where the leaves grew.(波斯金没有通过中间商合作，而是选择直接前往茶叶产地。)”可知，他通过实地走访茶叶原产地的方式采购茶叶。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“He realized that Chinese tea culture is not fixed and varies by region: while people in Yangzhou might drink green tea straight from a glass jar, those in Chaozhou prefer elegant tea sets.(他意识到中国茶文化并非一成不变，且因地而异：扬州人或许直接用玻璃罐冲泡绿茶饮用，而潮州人则偏爱雅致茶具。)”可知，中国茶文化的一大主要特点是具有地域差异性。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Looking ahead, he plans to turn his business into a social enterprise (企业) to finance local tea farmers.(展望未来，他计划将自己的企业转型为社会企业，为当地茶农提供资金支持。)”可知，他未来的目标是资助茶叶种植产区的农户。 C Several years ago, some doctors in Canada began “prescribing” (开处方) art to their patients, offering them free access to local museums. The idea was simple: by wandering among masterpieces and reflecting on paintings, patients might improve both their physical and mental health. A new study from the UK now suggests this is far from an odd idea. Researchers at University College London (UCL) found that joining in arts or cultural activities once a week could slow biological aging almost as much as exercising once a week. In other words, “art is life” may have real scientific support. The study followed more than 3,500 adults in the UK, examining how often they took part in artistic or cultural activities and measuring their biological age using epigenetic (表观遗传) clocks. These clocks estimate (预测) how fast a person is aging based on lifestyle and gene activity, rather than simply counting birthdays. Activities included visiting museums or libraries, attending exhibitions, painting, crafting, singing, dancing, and more. Participants who engaged in such activities weekly showed significantly slower aging compared to those who rarely did. One measurement tool, DunedinPACE, found that weekly participation slowed aging by about 4 percent. Another clock, PhenoAge, suggested that weekly art engagement made people appear nearly one year younger biologically — almost twice the effect of weekly exercise. The benefits were strongest among middle-aged adults. Interestingly, the greater the diversity of activities, the better the results. According to senior author Feifei Bu, this is the first evidence directly linking arts engagement with slower biological aging. Previous studies already showed that art reduces stress, lowers inflammation, and improves heart health — effects similar to exercise. Lead researcher Daisy Fancourt, who has studied art’s health benefits for nearly ten years, believes these findings prove that art should be recognized as a health-promoting behavior. Just as doctors may prescribe nature walks or forest bathing, they might regularly prescribe museum visits or creative hobbies in the future. After all, whether enjoying natural landscapes or human-made masterpieces, both experiences seem to provide the same “ingredients” for better health and happiness. 8. What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs? A. To challenge a traditional view. B. To analyze a social phenomenon. C. To introduce a medical treatment. D. To present a research background. 9. What do we know about epigenetic clocks from the text? A. They change our gene expressions. B. They show a person’s real birth date. C. They indicate biological aging speed. D. They determine the effects of lifestyle. 10. Which of the following best describes the effect of arts engagement? A. Frequency matters the most. B. Variety brings greater benefits. C. Mental health greatly improves. D. Benefits peak among the elderly. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Creative activities require less effort. B. Art and nature share health benefits. C. Medical prescriptions are changing fast. D. Artworks are more attractive than nature. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了一项最新研究，证实每周参与艺术文化活动可有效减缓生物衰老，效果接近甚至优于每周运动，为艺术促进健康提供了科学依据，也为未来临床健康干预提供了新思路。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Several years ago, some doctors in Canada began “prescribing” (开处方) art to their patients, offering them free access to local museums.(几年前，加拿大的一些医生开始为病人“开艺术处方”，让他们可以免费进入当地博物馆)”和第二段“A new study from the UK now suggests this is far from an odd idea. Researchers at University College London (UCL) found that joining in arts or cultural activities once a week could slow biological aging almost as much as exercising once a week.(英国如今的一项新研究表明，这绝不是一个离谱的想法。伦敦大学学院的研究人员发现，每周参加一次艺术或文化活动减缓生物衰老的效果几乎和每周一次运动一样)”可知，前两段先引出医生给病人开艺术处方的旧尝试，进而介绍新的研究结论，目的是引出本次研究的背景，引出全文主题。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“measuring their biological age using epigenetic (表观遗传) clocks(使用表观遗传时钟测量了他们的生物年龄)”和“These clocks estimate (预测) how fast a person is aging based on lifestyle and gene activity, rather than simply counting birthdays.(这些时钟根据生活方式和基因活动来预测一个人的衰老速度，而不是简单地计算生日)”可知，表观遗传时钟可以指示一个人生物衰老的速度。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Interestingly, the greater the diversity of activities, the better the results.(有趣的是，活动的多样性越大，效果越好)”可知，参与艺术活动时，多样性会带来更大的益处。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“After all, whether enjoying natural landscapes or human-made masterpieces, both experiences seem to provide the same “ingredients” for better health and happiness.(毕竟，无论是欣赏自然景观还是人造杰作，这两种体验似乎都能为更健康、更幸福提供相同的“要素”)”可推知，艺术和自然对健康有着共通的益处。 D The shipping industry is responsible for around 3 percent of carbon dioxide emissions. However, if wind-assisted cargo (货物) ships chose routes based entirely on where the winds are better, their fuel use could be significantly reduced or even completely eliminated. There is growing interest among shipping companies in exploiting wind power to cut costs. Some are building ships with conventional sails from the beginning, while others are adding automated sails to existing ships. Currently, some wind-assisted ships are still operated like conventional ones, taking a direct route at a set speed. To explore what could be achieved if routes and speeds were varied to optimize (使最优化) the wind boost, Thorben Schwedt at the German Aerospace Center and his colleagues set out to investigate. The team also assumed that ships could generate and store hydrogen (氢). When winds are very strong, some of the energy is used to generate hydrogen via electricity-generating turbines underneath a ship. This hydrogen can then power engines when the winds are low. The researchers took data on historical weather in the Atlantic Ocean over one year and used a computer model to work out optimal routes. “The ships go completely wild routes,” says Schwedt. On average, the energy consumption of ships taking the optimal routes would be 75 percent lower than those taking direct routes. “Sometimes taking really big detours that you couldn’t think would work out,” says Schwedt. “With this approach, we managed to get energy savings from 50 to 100 percent.” However, Tristan Smith at University College London points out that such high energy saving is only theoretically possible. “This very much depends on what average voyage speed you are targeting, which is set by the economics of a ship’s operation,” says Smith. “In our experience, the savings are significantly lower for most ships.” 12. What does the underlined word “exploiting” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Running out of. B. Making light of. C. Keeping track of. D. Taking advantage of. 13. Why did some ships follow completely wild routes according to the study? A. To shorten the sailing distance. B. To increase hydrogen production. C. To achieve greater energy savings. D. To avoid severe weather conditions. 14. What do Tristan Smith’s words imply? A. Real-world saving effects can be quite limited. B. Theoretical savings match practical operations. C. Wind cargo ships are economically impossible. D. Shipping efficiency relies heavily on target speed. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Cargo Ships Should Depend on Wind Energy B. Historical Weather Could Guide Modern Ships C. Wind Power Could Make Cargo Shipping Green D. Top Companies Should Lead the Wind Industry 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. A 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了随着航运公司越来越对利用风能降低成本感兴趣，一项研究发现，风力助力货轮通过优化路线和航速最大化利用风能，可大幅降低能耗，但业内专家指出该高节能效果目前仅存在于理论层面，实际应用中的节能效果会大打折扣。 【12题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“However, if wind-assisted cargo (货物) ships chose routes based entirely on where the winds are better, their fuel use could be significantly reduced or even completely eliminated.(然而，如果风力助力货船完全根据风力更优的区域选择航线，它们的燃料消耗就能大幅降低，甚至可以完全省去燃料)”以及第二段“There is growing interest among shipping companies in exploiting wind power to cut costs.(航运公司对exploiting风能来降低成本的兴趣越来越浓厚)”可知，风力助力航行可以降低燃料消耗、减少成本，因此航运公司想要利用风能实现降本，“exploiting”意思是“利用”，和Taking advantage of(利用)含义一致。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““The ships go completely wild routes,” says Schwedt. On average, the energy consumption of ships taking the optimal routes would be 75 percent lower than those taking direct routes...“With this approach, we managed to get energy savings from 50 to 100 percent.”(“船舶会走完全非常规的路线。”Schwedt说。走最优路线的船，平均能耗比走直线路线的船低75%……“通过这种方法，我们成功实现了50%到100%的节能”)”可知，船舶走非常规路线是为了最大化利用风能，实现更高程度的节能。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“However, Tristan Smith at University College London points out that such high energy saving is only theoretically possible. “This very much depends on what average voyage speed you are targeting, which is set by the economics of a ship’s operation,” says Smith. “In our experience, the savings are significantly lower for most ships.”(然而，伦敦大学学院的Tristan Smith指出，这么高的节能仅在理论上可行。Smith说：“这很大程度上取决于你目标的平均航行速度，而航行速度是由船舶运营的经济效益决定的。根据我们的经验，对大多数船舶来说，实际节能幅度要低得多”)”可知，Tristan Smith的话暗示现实世界中的实际节能效果是十分有限的。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，首段“However, if wind-assisted cargo (货物) ships chose routes based entirely on where the winds are better, their fuel use could be significantly reduced or even completely eliminated.(然而，如果风力助力货船完全根据风力更优的区域选择航线，它们的燃料消耗就能大幅降低，甚至可以完全省去燃料)”引出利用风能可以大幅降低燃料消耗，进而介绍了一项研究证明优化路线后能实现高效节能，最后专家指出理论的高节能在实际中很难实现。本文围绕风力助力货轮航运展开，核心内容是风能可以减少货轮航运的碳排放，让航运更环保。因此“Wind Power Could Make Cargo Shipping Green(风能可以让货轮航运更环保)”最适合作为标题。 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The phrase “grassroots crew” originally referred to temporary (临时的) performance groups that traveled from place to place with limited resources. ____16____ On social media, people often use it to describe organizations, teams, or projects that appear highly professional on the surface but are actually operated by ordinary people who are learning, improvising (临时拼凑), and solving problems as they go. Many people imagine that successful companies, institutions, or industries are run by perfect experts. Reality is often different. Studies suggest that decision-making is frequently shaped by limited information, time pressure, and human uncertainty. ____17____ What often separates successful teams from unsuccessful ones is not perfection, but the ability to adapt quickly when things go wrong. ____18____ New employees often assume that managers have all the answers. After a few years, many discover that managers are also figuring things out in real time. They attend meetings, discuss options, and sometimes change plans repeatedly. Behind many seemingly perfect systems are people trying their best to handle challenges they have never faced before. Interestingly, recognizing the existence of “grassroots crews” can reduce unnecessary anxiety. Many young people feel stressed because they compare themselves with idealized images of success. Yet when they realize that even large organizations contain uncertainty and imperfection, they become less afraid of making mistakes. ____19____ Of course, calling something a “grassroots crew” does not mean professionalism is unimportant. High standards, responsibility, and continuous learning still matter. ____20____ Research on skill development has repeatedly shown that expertise grows through practice, feedback, and repeated improvement rather than instant mastery. Perhaps the most valuable lesson is this: the world moves forward not because everyone is exceptional, but because ordinary people keep showing up, learning, and improving. A. Even experienced professionals make mistakes. B. As a result, they make every effort to avoid mistakes. C. This idea becomes obvious when we enter the workplace. D. Today, however, the term has taken on a broader meaning. E. The lesson is simply that excellence is usually built gradually. F. It usually takes employees years to become professional managers. G. Growth often comes from action rather than waiting for perfection. 【答案】16. D 17. A 18. C 19. G 20. E 【解析】 【导语】本文梳理了“草根团队(grassroots crew)”一词的含义演变，揭示了现实中多数组织与团队都是边行动边调整的普通人集合，而非由完美专家运营，帮助读者正确认识不确定性和不完美的普遍性，放下对完美的执念，在持续行动与改进中成长。 【16题详解】 上文“The phrase “grassroots crew” originally referred to temporary (临时的) performance groups that traveled from place to place with limited resources.(短语“草根团队”最初指资源有限、四处流动的临时演出团体)”介绍该短语的原始含义，下文“On social media, people often use it to describe organizations, teams, or projects that appear highly professional on the surface but are actually operated by ordinary people who are learning, improvising (临时拼凑), and solving problems as they go.(在社交媒体上，人们常用这个词来形容那些表面看起来高度专业，实际上却由普通人运营的组织、团队或项目，这些普通人一边学习、一边临时拼凑、一边解决问题)”介绍它现在网络语境下的全新含义，前后语义发生转折，空处应指出含义范围拓展，D选项“Today, however, the term has taken on a broader meaning.(然而如今，这个词已经有了更广泛的含义)”符合此处逻辑。 【17题详解】 上文“Studies suggest that decision-making is frequently shaped by limited information, time pressure, and human uncertainty.(研究表明，决策通常受到有限信息、时间压力和人为不确定性的影响)”说明决策本身就存在诸多不确定性，下文“What often separates successful teams from unsuccessful ones is not perfection, but the ability to adapt quickly when things go wrong.(区分成功团队与失败团队的往往不是完美，而是出问题时快速调整的能力)”指出成败的关键是出错后的调整能力而非完美，因此空格需要承上启下，说明哪怕是专业人员也会出错，A选项“Even experienced professionals make mistakes.(哪怕经验丰富的专业人士也会犯错)”符合此处逻辑。 【18题详解】 根据下文“New employees often assume that managers have all the answers. After a few years, many discover that managers are also figuring things out in real time.(新员工通常认为管理者掌握所有答案。几年之后，很多人会发现管理者也在实时弄清楚事情)”可知，本段以职场新人看待管理者的角度为例，说明不完美和边摸索边行动是普遍现象，空格位于段首，需要引出职场这个场景，C选项“This idea becomes obvious when we enter the workplace.(当我们进入职场，这个观点就变得非常明显)”符合此处逻辑，This idea指代前一段中成功的关键不是完美而是出错后的调整能力。 【19题详解】 根据上文“Yet when they realize that even large organizations contain uncertainty and imperfection, they become less afraid of making mistakes.(然而当他们意识到哪怕是大型组织也存在不确定性和不完美，他们就不会那么害怕犯错了)”可知，认识到“草根团队”的普遍存在后，年轻人不再惧怕犯错，会更愿意行动成长，G选项“Growth often comes from action rather than waiting for perfection.(成长往往来自行动，而非等待完美)”符合此处逻辑。 【20题详解】 上文“Of course, calling something a “grassroots crew” does not mean professionalism is unimportant. High standards, responsibility, and continuous learning still matter.(当然，把某件事称为“草根团队”并不代表专业不重要。高标准、责任感和持续学习依然重要)”承认专业素养依然重要，下文“Research on skill development has repeatedly shown that expertise grows through practice, feedback, and repeated improvement rather than instant mastery.(技能发展研究反复证明，专业能力是通过实践、反馈和反复打磨成长起来的，而非一蹴而就)”指出能力是逐步养成的，空格需要总结核心观点：优秀是逐步建立的，E选项“The lesson is simply that excellence is usually built gradually.(其中的道理很简单：卓越通常是逐步构建的)”符合此处逻辑。 第三部分 语言知识运用(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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 An extraordinary act of bravery recently unfolded in Tennessee, where a local police officer was highly praised for his quick thinking and courage.

The village was surrounded by endless bamboo forests, and almost every household knew the ancient craft. She often played in the bamboo forests and ran around the village happily. As a little girl, Clara loved watching her grandfather make beautiful, strong baskets out of rough bamboo pieces. To her, it was magic. However, as time went on, the magic seemed to fade. Plastic bags and mass-produced boxes took over the market. One by one, the young weavers packed their bags and headed for big cities, leaving only the elderly behind. The village grew quieter, and the beautiful craft was about to disappear. Clara, too, left for college and eventually found a job as a web designer in a busy city. She had a comfortable life, but a part of her heart always remained in the bamboo forests. During a holiday, Clara returned to Maple Valley. Walking down the familiar street, her heart sank. The village was so silent, and she could hardly see any young people. Her grandfather’s workshop, once filled with laughter and the clear sound of cutting bamboo, was now covered in dust. Her grandfather sat on a chair, his hands holding a half-finished basket, looking blankly out the window. “No one wants them anymore, Clara,” he sighed softly, his voice heavy with helplessness. “This craft will die with us.” Clara looked at the beautiful but unsold baskets stacked (堆积) in the corner, and then at her grandfather’s disappointed eyes. Suddenly, she made up her mind. She realized she couldn’t just stand by and watch. She had the design skills and understood modern tastes; they had the amazing craft. All that was needed was a way to connect them to the outside world. 注意：(1)词数应为150个左右；(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A week later, Clara quit her job and set up a studio in the village. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As Clara’s creative products gained popularity online, significant changes began to happen in Maple Valley. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 A week later, Clara quit her job and set up a studio in the village. She first cleaned up her grandfather’s dusty workshop, then redesigned the traditional bamboo baskets by combining modern minimalist aesthetics with the ancient craft. She took clear photos of every finished product, designed attractive product pages, and opened an online store to sell these handcrafted works to customers across the country. Her grandfather served as the chief craft instructor, passing down the weaving skills to a small team of local craftsmen, and the quiet workshop finally echoed with the familiar crisp sound of cutting bamboo again. As Clara’s creative products gained popularity online, significant changes began to happen in Maple Valley. Handwoven bamboo products drew more and more orders due to their texture and design. To keep up with demand, Clara began recruiting young people who wanted to return to the village to learn weaving, offering professional training and stable income. Besides, many people opened homestays for tourists who came to experience weaving. The once silent village became lively again, and the ancient craft of basket weaving that was about to disappear finally regained new life under the combination of tradition and innovation. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索。Clara生长于一个手工编织篮子而闻名的偏远村庄，过去村子里几乎家家户户都做编织工艺，充满了欢声笑语。后来在工业化的冲击下，祖辈传承的编织手艺濒临消失，年轻人去大城市打工，只留下老年人孤独在家。Clara回家看到这样的情况后，辞去城市的设计工作回到故乡，结合现代设计和互联网将传统编织产品重新推向市场，吸引年轻人返乡，让濒临消亡的古老传统手艺重获新生，振兴了村庄。 【详解】1. 续写线索： ①由续写第一段首句内容可知，本段可以描写Clara回村建立工作室，融合现代审美改良传统编织产品，开网店建立线上销售模式，联合祖父给工匠传授编织技能，让工坊重获生机。 ②由续写第二段首句内容可知，本段可以描写产品订单增加，Clara招募回乡年轻人，培养年轻编织者，当地建立了许多民宿，在传承传统手工艺的同时振兴了村庄经济。 2. 段落续写： 辞职建工作室——改良传统编织产品——开线上商店——联合祖父传授技能——工坊恢复生机——订单增长——招募返乡年轻人——建民宿——村庄恢复活力、传统手艺重获新生 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ①结合：combine/integrate/mix ②跟上：keep up with/catch up with 状态类 ①安静的：quiet/tranquil ②有生机的：lively/vibrant 【点睛】【高分句型1】Her grandfather served as the chief craft instructor, passing down the weaving skills to a small team of local craftsmen, and the quiet workshop finally echoed with the familiar crisp sound of cutting bamboo again.(使用了现在分词短语作状语) 【高分句型2】To keep up with demand, Clara began recruiting young people who wanted to return to the village to learn weaving, offering professional training and stable income.

This annual event looks back at early American history and celebrates centuries-old traditions. Join the community to experience the rich heritage and various customs of this traditional holiday. Historical Roots The festival dates back to the autumn of 1621 when early European settlers held a three-day harvest celebration. Initially a small local event to welcome a successful harvest after a difficult year, it has now become a nationwide celebration of family and gratitude. Time-honored Traditions The Turkey Feast: On Sunday evening, families gather for a big traditional dinner. Eating turkey and pumpkin pie remains the most famous custom, which became popular across the country in the late 1800s. The Big Parade: On Saturday morning, watch giant balloons and musicians march through the streets. Interestingly, this famous custom actually started in New York in 1924, not in the early colonial days! The Cornucopia Legend: Early settlers used a horn-shaped (角形的) basket filled with fruits to show their wealth. Today, making this autumn decoration remains a beloved family activity. Lecture & Workshop Tickets History Talk: $ 15 (Saturday afternoon — Hear historians share old stories of early America) Autumn Crafting (精心制作): $ 20 (Sunday afternoon — Learn to make traditional cornucopia decorations) Special Offer: Teenagers (aged 13-18) receive a $5 discount on any ticket.

B When Derek Poskin first arrived in the historic city of Yangzhou in 2016, he was simply tracing a famous poem by Li Bai. However, the ancient city offered him more than beautiful views; it inspired a deep love for Chinese tea. “Coffee is for work, but tea is for life,” the 28-year-old American often says. What started as a personal interest quickly grew, and as he bought more leaves and teapots, he eventually turned his living room into a warehouse (库房). To share his passion, he launched a side project in 2018, which later became a global tea business. Exploring China’s tea culture, however, was a big challenge. Rather than working through middlemen, Poskin chose to go directly to where the leaves grew. With a leap of faith, he once connected with a young farmer named Zhao via social media and headed to Guafengzhai, a remote village. There, he spent four days hiking through primitive (原始的) forests and learning the leaf fixation process from local families. To better understand the culture, he even lived in Chaozhou for a year to study the art of making clay teapots. Through these journeys, Poskin’s understanding of tea changed from a search for “correctness” to an appreciation for diversity. He realized that Chinese tea culture is not fixed and varies by region: while people in Yangzhou might drink green tea straight from a glass jar, those in Chaozhou prefer elegant tea sets. “Any way you drink tea is the right way,” he says. Now running a tea house named “Empty Cup” in Yangzhou, Poskin also shares his journeys worldwide through videos and a podcast. Looking ahead, he plans to turn his business into a social enterprise (企业) to finance local tea farmers. For young people dreaming of success, he offers a perspective of patience: “Great things take years of practice and improvement. Don’t rush it, and one day everything will come together.” 4. What led to the start of Poskin’s tea business? A. His wish to introduce others to Chinese tea. B. His desire to travel to remote Chinese villages. C. His failure to find a satisfying job in Yangzhou. D. His dream of becoming a famous poet like Li Bai. 5. How does Poskin carry out his tea sourcing work? A. By working with local dealers. B. By employing overseas agents. C. By making field visits to origins. D. By searching on online platforms. 6. What is a key feature of Chinese tea culture according to paragraph 3? A. It features regional differences. B. It demands standard preparation. C. It highlights the beauty of tea sets. D. It focuses on tea making processes. 7. What is Poskin’s future aim for his business? A. To open chain tea shops. B. To develop new tea varieties. C. To be a full-time content creator. D. To fund tea-growing communities. C Several years ago, some doctors in Canada began “prescribing” (开处方) art to their patients, offering them free access to local museums. The idea was simple: by wandering among masterpieces and reflecting on paintings, patients might improve both their physical and mental health. A new study from the UK now suggests this is far from an odd idea. Researchers at University College London (UCL) found that joining in arts or cultural activities once a week could slow biological aging almost as much as exercising once a week. In other words, “art is life” may have real scientific support. The study followed more than 3,500 adults in the UK, examining how often they took part in artistic or cultural activities and measuring their biological age using epigenetic (表观遗传) clocks. These clocks estimate (预测) how fast a person is aging based on lifestyle and gene activity, rather than simply counting birthdays. Activities included visiting museums or libraries, attending exhibitions, painting, crafting, singing, dancing, and more. Participants who engaged in such activities weekly showed significantly slower aging compared to those who rarely did. One measurement tool, DunedinPACE, found that weekly participation slowed aging by about 4 percent. Another clock, PhenoAge, suggested that weekly art engagement made people appear nearly one year younger biologically — almost twice the effect of weekly exercise. The benefits were strongest among middle-aged adults. Interestingly, the greater the diversity of activities, the better the results. According to senior author Feifei Bu, this is the first evidence directly linking arts engagement with slower biological aging. Previous studies already showed that art reduces stress, lowers inflammation, and improves heart health — effects similar to exercise. Lead researcher Daisy Fancourt, who has studied art’s health benefits for nearly ten years, believes these findings prove that art should be recognized as a health-promoting behavior. Just as doctors may prescribe nature walks or forest bathing, they might regularly prescribe museum visits or creative hobbies in the future. After all, whether enjoying natural landscapes or human-made masterpieces, both experiences seem to provide the same “ingredients” for better health and happiness. 8. What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs? A. To challenge a traditional view. B. To analyze a social phenomenon. C. To introduce a medical treatment. D. To present a research background. 9. What do we know about epigenetic clocks from the text? A. They change our gene expressions. B. They show a person’s real birth date. C. They indicate biological aging speed. D. They determine the effects of lifestyle. 10. Which of the following best describes the effect of arts engagement? A. Frequency matters the most. B. Variety brings greater benefits. C. Mental health greatly improves. D. Benefits peak among the elderly. 11. What can be inferred from the last paragraph? A. Creative activities require less effort. B. Art and nature share health benefits. C. Medical prescriptions are changing fast. D. Artworks are more attractive than nature. D The shipping industry is responsible for around 3 percent of carbon dioxide emissions. However, if wind-assisted cargo (货物) ships chose routes based entirely on where the winds are better, their fuel use could be significantly reduced or even completely eliminated. There is growing interest among shipping companies in exploiting wind power to cut costs. Some are building ships with conventional sails from the beginning, while others are adding automated sails to existing ships. Currently, some wind-assisted ships are still operated like conventional ones, taking a direct route at a set speed. To explore what could be achieved if routes and speeds were varied to optimize (使最优化) the wind boost, Thorben Schwedt at the German Aerospace Center and his colleagues set out to investigate. The team also assumed that ships could generate and store hydrogen (氢). When winds are very strong, some of the energy is used to generate hydrogen via electricity-generating turbines underneath a ship. This hydrogen can then power engines when the winds are low. The researchers took data on historical weather in the Atlantic Ocean over one year and used a computer model to work out optimal routes. “The ships go completely wild routes,” says Schwedt. On average, the energy consumption of ships taking the optimal routes would be 75 percent lower than those taking direct routes. “Sometimes taking really big detours that you couldn’t think would work out,” says Schwedt. “With this approach, we managed to get energy savings from 50 to 100 percent.” However, Tristan Smith at University College London points out that such high energy saving is only theoretically possible. “This very much depends on what average voyage speed you are targeting, which is set by the economics of a ship’s operation,” says Smith. “In our experience, the savings are significantly lower for most ships.” 12. What does the underlined word “exploiting” in paragraph 2 probably mean? A. Running out of. B. Making light of. C. Keeping track of. D. Taking advantage of. 13. Why did some ships follow completely wild routes according to the study? A. To shorten the sailing distance. B. To increase hydrogen production. C. To achieve greater energy savings. D. To avoid severe weather conditions. 14. What do Tristan Smith’s words imply? A. Real-world saving effects can be quite limited. B. Theoretical savings match practical operations. C. Wind cargo ships are economically impossible. D. Shipping efficiency relies heavily on target speed. 15. Which of the following can be the best title for the text? A. Cargo Ships Should Depend on Wind Energy B. Historical Weather Could Guide Modern Ships C. Wind Power Could Make Cargo Shipping Green D. Top Companies Should Lead the Wind Industry 第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The phrase “grassroots crew” originally referred to temporary (临时的) performance groups that traveled from place to place with limited resources. ____16____ On social media, people often use it to describe organizations, teams, or projects that appear highly professional on the surface but are actually operated by ordinary people who are learning, improvising (临时拼凑), and solving problems as they go. Many people imagine that successful companies, institutions, or industries are run by perfect experts. Reality is often different. Studies suggest that decision-making is frequently shaped by limited information, time pressure, and human uncertainty. ____17____ What often separates successful teams from unsuccessful ones is not perfection, but the ability to adapt quickly when things go wrong. ____18____ New employees often assume that managers have all the answers. After a few years, many discover that managers are also figuring things out in real time. They attend meetings, discuss options, and sometimes change plans repeatedly. Behind many seemingly perfect systems are people trying their best to handle challenges they have never faced before. Interestingly, recognizing the existence of “grassroots crews” can reduce unnecessary anxiety. Many young people feel stressed because they compare themselves with idealized images of success. Yet when they realize that even large organizations contain uncertainty and imperfection, they become less afraid of making mistakes. ____19____ Of course, calling something a “grassroots crew” does not mean professionalism is unimportant. High standards, responsibility, and continuous learning still matter. ____20____ Research on skill development has repeatedly shown that expertise grows through practice, feedback, and repeated improvement rather than instant mastery. Perhaps the most valuable lesson is this: the world moves forward not because everyone is exceptional, but because ordinary people keep showing up, learning, and improving. A. Even experienced professionals make mistakes. B. As a result, they make every effort to avoid mistakes. C. This idea becomes obvious when we enter the workplace. D. Today, however, the term has taken on a broader meaning. E. The lesson is simply that excellence is usually built gradually. F. It usually takes employees years to become professional managers. G. Growth often comes from action rather than waiting for perfection. 第三部分 语言知识运用(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四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 An extraordinary act of bravery recently unfolded in Tennessee, where a local police officer was highly praised for his quick thinking and courage.

The village was surrounded by endless bamboo forests, and almost every household knew the ancient craft. She often played in the bamboo forests and ran around the village happily. As a little girl, Clara loved watching her grandfather make beautiful, strong baskets out of rough bamboo pieces. To her, it was magic. However, as time went on, the magic seemed to fade. Plastic bags and mass-produced boxes took over the market. One by one, the young weavers packed their bags and headed for big cities, leaving only the elderly behind. The village grew quieter, and the beautiful craft was about to disappear. Clara, too, left for college and eventually found a job as a web designer in a busy city. She had a comfortable life, but a part of her heart always remained in the bamboo forests. During a holiday, Clara returned to Maple Valley. Walking down the familiar street, her heart sank. The village was so silent, and she could hardly see any young people. Her grandfather’s workshop, once filled with laughter and the clear sound of cutting bamboo, was now covered in dust. Her grandfather sat on a chair, his hands holding a half-finished basket, looking blankly out the window. “No one wants them anymore, Clara,” he sighed softly, his voice heavy with helplessness. “This craft will die with us.” Clara looked at the beautiful but unsold baskets stacked (堆积) in the corner, and then at her grandfather’s disappointed eyes. Suddenly, she made up her mind. She realized she couldn’t just stand by and watch. She had the design skills and understood modern tastes; they had the amazing craft. All that was needed was a way to connect them to the outside world. 注意：(1)词数应为150个左右；(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 A week later, Clara quit her job and set up a studio in the village. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ As Clara’s creative products gained popularity online, significant changes began to happen in Maple Valley. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
