I was standing in line at the grocery store, scrolling through my phone, impatient to get home after a long day of teaching. Ahead of me stood an elderly man in a faded grey coat. His hands trembled slightly as he counted out coins onto the counter.
“I’m sorry,” he whispered to the cashier, his voice thin and shaky. “I thought I had enough.”
The cashier, a young woman who looked equally tired, sighed. “You’re short by five dollars, sir. Do you want to put something back?”
People behind me became impatient. The old man looked at his things: a carton of milk, a loaf of bread, a dozen eggs, and a small box of chocolate cookies. He slowly reached for the cookies. “I... I don’t need these. They were for my grandson, but...”
I could see how embarrassed he was. Without thinking twice, I walked forward and paid with my card. “I’ll pay for it,” I said. “Please keep the cookies.”
The man froze. He looked at me, his watery blue eyes wide with shock. “No, Miss, I couldn’t...”
“It’s fine,” I smiled, hoping to ease his worry. “Consider it a gift for your grandson.”
He tried to speak but choked up. He simply nodded, took his bag, and waited for me outside. When I walked out, he grabbed my hand. “You don’t know what this means. My pension (养老金) hasn’t arrived yet, and tomorrow is his birthday. Thank you.”
A week later, I was back at the same store. As I walked down the passage, a little boy ran up to me, holding a familiar box of chocolate cookies. Behind him was the old man, smiling happily. “He wanted to share one with you,” the man said.
That chocolate cookie tasted better than any fancy dessert I’d ever had. It tasted like connection. It tasted like hope.

We’ve all seen this happen in a science-fiction movie: The super heroes jump into a shaky spaceship and escape the bad guys by flying through the asteroid (小行星) belt, where huge rocks fall and spin (旋转) so close that the crew has to duck and dive to avoid being broken into pieces. It’s exciting, but it’s wrong: In our solar system, the odds are pretty good that you could stand on the surface of an asteroid and not even be able to see another.
Yet they do interact if given enough time. Even in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, crashes are ineluctable. And when two space rocks go “crash” in the main belt, big impacts blow lots of asteroid fragments (碎片) out into space.
In many cases, these fragments stay on much the same orbital path as the parent asteroid, although they gradually separate from it because of slight speed differences. After thousands of years, some fragments might be clear across the Sun, but their distance from the Sun and the shape and direction of their orbits remain similar. Such conserved features are collectively called an asteroid’s orbital elements. The groupings sharing orbital elements are identified as “families”, which are named after the largest asteroid in the group.
Studying asteroids by focusing on their families can help us make a good guess about what properties a newly-found one has if it belongs to a better-studied family. Care must be taken, though. Some very large asteroids have differentiated materials in the center and on the surface, so confirming those guesses usually requires taking spectra (光谱), the time-consuming process of breaking an object’s incoming light into individual colors to reveal its composition.
It’s more than a mere academic exercise to find this particular branch of an asteroid family tree: Some asteroids are potentially risky, meaning they could crash with Earth some time in the distant future. If we know how they find their way to the inner solar system from the main belt to pose threats in the first place, we can defend our planet from future worrisome asteroids.
8. What is the author’s view on the scene in the sci-fi movie?
A. It ignores the special visual effects.
B. It goes against the established facts.
C. It overestimates the super heroes’ role.
D. It fuels people’s interest in the asteroid.
9. Which is closest in meaning to the underlined word “ineluctable” in paragraph 2?
A. Unlikely. B. Uncommon. C. Unavoidable. D. Unimportant.
10. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The formation of asteroid families. B. The definition of orbital elements.
C. The moving pattern of asteroid fragments. D. The naming rule of asteroid groups.
11. What can be inferred about the study of asteroid family?
A. It is a high-risk practice.
B. It is built on assumptions.
C. Its range needs to be expanded.
D. Its value can’t be overstated.
Every year, on the 15th day of the first lunar month, millions of Chinese families gather to celebrate the Lantern Festival. They light lanterns, eat sweet rice dumplings, and solve riddles written on lanterns. But beyond the joy and delicious food, the festival carries a deeper meaning that has evolved over centuries.
The Lantern Festival marks the end of the Chinese New Year celebrations. Historically, it was a time when people prayed for good harvests and family unity. In ancient China, young people were not free to go out on most days, but on this night, they were allowed to walk the streets, lighting lanterns and meeting others. For this reason, the festival was sometimes called “Chinese Valentine’s Day”.
However, like many traditional festivals, the Lantern Festival has changed in modern times. Today, many young Chinese celebrate it by watching lantern shows on social media rather than going out. Some cities have replaced traditional paper lanterns with electric ones for safety reasons. The practice of solving riddles has also moved online, with people competing in mobile apps instead of gathering in town squares.
These changes have raised questions among cultural historians. Some worry that the festival is losing its original meaning. “When traditions are simplified or digitized, the social bonds they create weaken,” says Professor Li Wei, a folk culture expert. “The Lantern Festival was never just about lanterns. It was about people coming together.” Yet others see the changes as a natural part of cultural evolution. “No culture stays the same forever,” argues historian Zhang Mei. “The fact that young people still care about the Lantern Festival, even if they celebrate it on their phones, shows that the tradition is alive.” She points out that new technologies can actually help spread traditional culture to a wider audience.
Despite the debate, one thing remains clear: the Lantern Festival continues to hold a special place in the hearts of Chinese people. Whether it is celebrated with paper lanterns on a crowded street or through a screen at home, the spirit of reunion and hope for a bright future remains unchanged.
12. What was one historical function of the Lantern Festival mentioned in the passage?
A. It marked the beginning of the harvest season. B. It gave young people a rare chance to go out.
C. It was a time for family members to travel. D. It served as a competition for lantern makers.
13. How do many young Chinese celebrate the Lantern Festival today according to the passage?
A. By traveling to their hometowns. B. By making sweet rice dumplings at home.
C. By watching lantern shows on social media. D. By lighting paper lanterns in town squares.
14. What is Zhang Mei’s attitude toward the modern way of celebrating the festival?
A. Worried. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Objective.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The Lantern Festival: A Tradition in Change
B. How to Celebrate the Lantern Festival Online
C. The History of Chinese Valentine’s Day
D. Why Young People No Longer Like Traditional Festivals

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tessa never spoke unless she had to. Every time she opened her mouth, people would stare at her mouth. She had heard the whispers — “like a frog” — and learned to keep quiet, feeling extremely bad about her appearance.
She spent her days hiding in corners: the back of the classroom, the farthest table in the library, the bench (长椅) behind the gym. She carried a book everywhere, holding it close like a shelter. But it was not a textbook. It was field guides, filled with leaves and flowers, their names and secrets. She knew every plant around the school, though no one knew she did.
One afternoon in biology class, Ms Taylor announced a project. Each student had to collect different plants, press them, and put them on paper with descriptions.
Her classmates were not happy about it. Tessa said nothing, but something woke up inside her quiet heart.
After school, she walked to the woods behind the football field, walking slowly with her eyes on the ground. She found a lovely branch of yarrow (蓍草), a heart-shaped violet leaf, and a soft lamb’s ear leaf, picking each one carefully. By the playground, she discovered a tiny plot of moss, no bigger than her finger. On her way back, she picked a maple leaf still holding its autumn red.
Back home, she pressed them between the pages of an old dictionary. Three days later, she took them out, finding them flat and perfect. She arranged them on a white paper, leaving space for each one. Then she began to write. Her handwriting was small and steady, each letter formed with care. Under each plant, she put the common name, the scientific name, where she found it, and a small detail only she would have noticed.
She finished late at night. The next morning, she slipped her work into all students’ homework, saying nothing. She returned to her seat, opening a book as usual. She expected nothing. She never did.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But when the teacher walked into the classroom, she was holding Tessa’s paper.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The students’ reaction gave her a great deal of confidence.

【导语】本文围绕小行星展开介绍,讲述了科幻电影中的错误场景、小行星碰撞后产生碎片并形成小行星家族的过程以及研究小行星家族的意义。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“It’s exciting, but it’s wrong: In our solar system, the odds are pretty good that you could stand on the surface of an asteroid and not even be able to see another.(这很刺激,但这是错误的:在我们的太阳系中,你很有可能站在一颗小行星的表面而甚至看不到另一颗小行星。)”可知,作者指出电影中的场景虽然刺激,但与现实情况不符,电影情节违背了既定事实。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Yet they do interact if given enough time. Even in the main asteroid belt between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter, crashes are ineluctable.(然而,如果给它们足够的时间,它们确实会互动。即使在火星和木星轨道之间的小行星带,碰撞也是ineluctable。)”以及“when two space rocks go “crash” in the main belt(当两块太空岩石在主带中“撞击”时)”可知,小行星在长时间下会发生相互作用,并讲述了两块岩石撞击的情况,由此可推测出,碰撞应该是必然会发生的。ineluctable意为“不可避免的”,与unavoidable意思相近。
【10题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“In many cases, these fragments stay on much the same orbital path as the parent asteroid, although they gradually separate from it because of slight speed differences. After thousands of years, some fragments might be clear across the Sun, but their distance from the Sun and the shape and direction of their orbits remain similar. Such conserved features are collectively called an asteroid’s orbital elements. The groupings sharing orbital elements are identified as “families”, which are named after the largest asteroid in the group.(在许多情况下,这些碎片与母小行星保持在大致相同的轨道上,尽管由于速度略有不同,它们会逐渐与母小行星分离。数千年后,一些碎片可能会完全在太阳对面,但它们与太阳的距离以及轨道的形状和方向仍然相似。这些保存下来的特征统称为小行星的轨道要素。共享轨道要素的组合被确定为“家族”,以该组合中最大的小行星命名。)”可知,本段主要讲述了小行星碰撞产生碎片,碎片因保留相似的轨道要素而形成“小行星家族”的过程,即小行星家族的形成。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It’s more than a mere academic exercise... we can defend our planet from future worrisome asteroids.(这不仅仅是单纯的学术练习……我们可以保卫我们的星球免受未来令人担忧的小行星的威胁。)”可知,对小行星家族的研究不仅具有学术意义,更重要的是它能帮助我们了解威胁地球的小行星的来源,从而保卫地球。由此推断,这项研究的价值极其重要。
Every year, on the 15th day of the first lunar month, millions of Chinese families gather to celebrate the Lantern Festival. They light lanterns, eat sweet rice dumplings, and solve riddles written on lanterns. But beyond the joy and delicious food, the festival carries a deeper meaning that has evolved over centuries.
The Lantern Festival marks the end of the Chinese New Year celebrations. Historically, it was a time when people prayed for good harvests and family unity. In ancient China, young people were not free to go out on most days, but on this night, they were allowed to walk the streets, lighting lanterns and meeting others. For this reason, the festival was sometimes called “Chinese Valentine’s Day”.
However, like many traditional festivals, the Lantern Festival has changed in modern times. Today, many young Chinese celebrate it by watching lantern shows on social media rather than going out. Some cities have replaced traditional paper lanterns with electric ones for safety reasons. The practice of solving riddles has also moved online, with people competing in mobile apps instead of gathering in town squares.
These changes have raised questions among cultural historians. Some worry that the festival is losing its original meaning. “When traditions are simplified or digitized, the social bonds they create weaken,” says Professor Li Wei, a folk culture expert. “The Lantern Festival was never just about lanterns. It was about people coming together.” Yet others see the changes as a natural part of cultural evolution. “No culture stays the same forever,” argues historian Zhang Mei. “The fact that young people still care about the Lantern Festival, even if they celebrate it on their phones, shows that the tradition is alive.” She points out that new technologies can actually help spread traditional culture to a wider audience.
Despite the debate, one thing remains clear: the Lantern Festival continues to hold a special place in the hearts of Chinese people. Whether it is celebrated with paper lanterns on a crowded street or through a screen at home, the spirit of reunion and hope for a bright future remains unchanged.
12. What was one historical function of the Lantern Festival mentioned in the passage?
A. It marked the beginning of the harvest season. B. It gave young people a rare chance to go out.
C. It was a time for family members to travel. D. It served as a competition for lantern makers.
13. How do many young Chinese celebrate the Lantern Festival today according to the passage?
A. By traveling to their hometowns. B. By making sweet rice dumplings at home.
C. By watching lantern shows on social media. D. By lighting paper lanterns in town squares.
14. What is Zhang Mei’s attitude toward the modern way of celebrating the festival?
A. Worried. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Objective.
15. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. The Lantern Festival: A Tradition in Change
B. How to Celebrate the Lantern Festival Online
C. The History of Chinese Valentine’s Day
D. Why Young People No Longer Like Traditional Festivals
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】文章主要讲述了元宵节的意义、历史、现代变化及不同人对这些变化的看法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“In ancient China, young people were not free to go out on most days, but on this night, they were allowed to walk the streets, lighting lanterns and meeting others.(在中国古代,大多数日子里年轻人不能自由外出,但在这个夜晚,他们被允许走在街上,点灯笼,与他人见面)”可知,元宵节的一个历史功能是给年轻人一个难得的外出机会。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Today, many young Chinese celebrate it by watching lantern shows on social media rather than going out.(如今,许多中国年轻人通过在社交媒体上看灯笼展来庆祝元宵节,而不是外出)”可知,现在许多中国年轻人通过在社交媒体上看灯笼展来庆祝元宵节。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中““When traditions are simplified or digitized, the social bonds they create weaken,” says Professor Li Wei, a folk culture expert.(民俗文化专家李伟教授表示:“当传统被简化或数字化时,它们所建立的社会纽带就会变得薄弱。”)”可知,李伟教授担心现代庆祝方式会削弱节日所创造的社会纽带。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容,尤其是第三段中“However, like many traditional festivals, the Lantern Festival has changed in modern times.(然而,和许多传统节日一样,元宵节在现代也发生了诸多变化)”可知,文章介绍元宵节传统内涵、现代习俗变化以及学者的不同看法,核心是变迁中的元宵节传统。故A选项“元宵节:一个在变化的传统”符合文章标题。

How to Make Friends
Friends are so wonderful because they bring laughter, share adventures and comfort you in hard times.____16____ Fortunately, once you know where to look and how to put yourself out there, making new friends doesn’t have to be hard. Here are some tips and strategies for building the friendships you deserve.
____17____If you want to make friends, you first need to put yourself out there somehow in order to meet people. If you just sit alone, friends might come to you, but that’s not likely because they might think you want to stay alone. For example, if you’re still in school, sit somewhere with other people. It doesn’t have to be a crowded table, but try to choose one with at least 2 other people.
Join an organization or club to meet new people.____18____You don’t necessarily need to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them. Some of the most rewarding friendships are between 2 people who don’t have much in common at all.
Make eye contact and smile. If you don’t present a friendly and inviting appearance, people are less likely to be receptive to your friendship.____19____
Be reliable. When you say you’ll do something, do it.____20____If you embody (体现) this quality in your treatment of others, it will attract others who appreciate reliability (可靠性) a and who will be reliable in return.
A. Look for opportunities to talk to people.
B. Make yourself available.
C. Look people directly in the eye when they are speaking to you and offer them a warm, friendly smile.
D. Be someone that people know that they can depend on.
E. But sometimes making new friends can feel really hard.
F. This is a great way to find other people who have common interests.
G. Show the good, unique qualities about yourself.
【答案】16. E 17. B 18. F 19. C 20. D
【解析】
【导语】这篇文章主要介绍了结交朋友的几条实用建议:多接触他人、加入社团、微笑对视待人、做人守信可靠,还指出交友不必强求双方有很多共同爱好。
【16题详解】
上文“Friends are so wonderful because they bring laughter, share adventures and comfort you in hard times. (朋友非常美好,因为他们带来欢笑,分享冒险,并在你困难时给予安慰。)”讲述朋友带来的诸多美好,下文“Fortunately, once you know where to look and how to put yourself out there, making new friends doesn’t have to be hard. (幸运的是,一旦你知道该去哪里寻找、该如何主动出击,结交新朋友就不再那么难了。)”以“Fortunately”转折,说明交朋友其实并不难、有方法可循。因此空格处需要转折句,引出“交朋友很难”的普遍感受,与后文形成呼应。E 选项“But sometimes making new friends can feel really hard. (但有时候结交新朋友会让人觉得格外困难。)”完美承上启下。
【17题详解】
空格是本段主旨句。下文“If you want to make friends, you first need to put yourself out there somehow in order to meet people. If you just sit alone, friends might come to you, but that’s not likely because they might think you want to stay alone. (如果你想交朋友,首先需要以某种方式主动接触他人,才能有机会认识他们。如果你只是独自坐着,朋友可能会主动找上你,但这种情况不太可能,因为他们可能认为你只想独处。)”核心逻辑是:想交朋友就要主动走出去、融入人群,独自坐着不会有人主动靠近。B选项“Make yourself available. (让自己保持可接触的状态。)”精准概括了本段主旨 —— 主动现身、不封闭自己,才能拥有认识他人的机会。
【18题详解】
上文“Join an organization or club to meet new people. ( 加入一个组织或社团,结识新朋友。)”提出建议“加入组织或俱乐部认识新朋友”,下文“You don’t necessarily need to have a lot of common interests with people in order to make friends with them. (你并不一定需要和别人有太多共同兴趣,才能与他们成为朋友。)”转折说明“交朋友未必需要很多共同爱好”。F 选项“This is a great way to find other people who have common interests. (这是找到有共同兴趣的人的好方法。)”承接前文“加入俱乐部”的作用,同时与后文的转折逻辑(有共同兴趣是常见优势,但不是必要条件)衔接自然。
【19题详解】
本段主旨是“Make eye contact and smile. (眼神交流与微笑。)”,上文“If you don’t present a friendly and inviting appearance, people are less likely to be receptive to your friendship. (如果你不表现出友好和亲切的样子,人们就不太可能接受你的友谊。)”说明不友好的外表会让人不愿接近。C 选项“Look people directly in the eye when they are speaking to you and offer them a warm, friendly smile. (当别人和你说话时,直视对方的眼睛,送上温暖友好的微笑。)”是对主旨句的具体落地解释,直接呼应“eye contact and smile”两个核心动作。
【20题详解】
本段主旨是“Be reliable. (保持可靠。)”,上文“When you say you’ll do something, do it. ( 当你承诺要做某事时,就一定要做到。)”说明“说到就要做到”,下文“If you embody (体现) this quality in your treatment of others, it will attract others who appreciate reliability (可靠性) a and who will be reliable in return. (如果你在待人处事时体现出这种品质,就会吸引那些欣赏可靠之人,并且他们也会以可靠回报你。)”说明这种品质会吸引同样可靠的人。D选项“Be someone that people know that they can depend on. (做一个别人知道可以信赖的人。)”是对“可靠”的进一步诠释,前后围绕“可靠、可信赖”展开,逻辑连贯。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tessa never spoke unless she had to. Every time she opened her mouth, people would stare at her mouth. She had heard the whispers — “like a frog” — and learned to keep quiet, feeling extremely bad about her appearance.
She spent her days hiding in corners: the back of the classroom, the farthest table in the library, the bench (长椅) behind the gym. She carried a book everywhere, holding it close like a shelter. But it was not a textbook. It was field guides, filled with leaves and flowers, their names and secrets. She knew every plant around the school, though no one knew she did.
One afternoon in biology class, Ms Taylor announced a project. Each student had to collect different plants, press them, and put them on paper with descriptions.
Her classmates were not happy about it. Tessa said nothing, but something woke up inside her quiet heart.
After school, she walked to the woods behind the football field, walking slowly with her eyes on the ground. She found a lovely branch of yarrow (蓍草), a heart-shaped violet leaf, and a soft lamb’s ear leaf, picking each one carefully. By the playground, she discovered a tiny plot of moss, no bigger than her finger. On her way back, she picked a maple leaf still holding its autumn red.
Back home, she pressed them between the pages of an old dictionary. Three days later, she took them out, finding them flat and perfect. She arranged them on a white paper, leaving space for each one. Then she began to write. Her handwriting was small and steady, each letter formed with care. Under each plant, she put the common name, the scientific name, where she found it, and a small detail only she would have noticed.
She finished late at night. The next morning, she slipped her work into all students’ homework, saying nothing. She returned to her seat, opening a book as usual. She expected nothing. She never did.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
But when the teacher walked into the classroom, she was holding Tessa’s paper.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The students’ reaction gave her a great deal of confidence.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
But when the teacher walked into the classroom, she was holding Tessa’s paper. She held it up for everyone to see, a big smile on her face. “Look at this wonderful work!” she said loudly. “Tessa knew every plant’s name, even the smallest details. This is amazing!” All the students leaned forward, their eyes wide with surprise. Then someone started clapping. Soon the whole class joined in, their hands coming together. Tessa felt her face burning, her eyes fixed on her desk.
The students’ reaction gave her a great deal of confidence. For the first time, she felt truly seen — not for her mouth, but for what she knew and could do. After that day, she began to change. She raised her hand in class, her voice shaking at first but growing stronger. She talked to her classmates during breaks, finding them kind and curious.
