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
These destinations march to the beat of their own drum. So put on your dancing shoes and head to these sweet-sounding cities.
New Orleans
In the 19th century, slaves gathered on Sundays to play drums, dance, and sing in Congo Square. Those lively rhythms of Africa ran head on with the sounds of Europe to create jazz, a typical American art form that has inspired generations of Americans and spread around the globe. But this isn’t suit-wearing, head-nodding, polite jazz. New Orleans jazz sweeps you off your feet and makes you jump and clap and sing along.
Chicago
Large numbers of African Americans left the South in search of better opportunities during 1916~1970 and Chicago attracted scores of these people, who brought with them the sound of the Mississippi River. Here, it changed into something sad and symphonic: blues. Blues was not born in Chicago, but it was here that it found a new voice and began to spread its message around the world.
Memphis
Memphis is the birthplace of rock and roll. It was here in Sun Studios in the summer of 1951 that Ike Turner and his band the Delta Cats recorded “Rocket 88”, widely regarded as the first rock and roll song. But, like so many great things, it happened by accident the guitarist’s loudspeaker broke down during the recording, creating a unique guitar sound that would become a hallmark of the music. People didn’t know how to classify it, but they knew they loved it. The rest is history.
New York City
New York is one of the world’s greatest cities where you can listen to all kinds of music. But to experience a true New York state of mind, you have to leave the shiny towers and Broadway shows of Manhattan and head to Harlem, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens to explore the city’s hip-hop history.
1. What do New Orleans jazz and Chicago blues have in common?
A. They sound very sad. B. They have similar origin.
C. They happened by accident. D. They are played on the guitar.
2. When was rock and roll born?
A. In the 19th century. B. In the late 19th century.
C. In the early 20th century. D. In the mid-20th century.
3. What are Harlem and Queers known for?
A. Blues. B. Jazz. C. Hip-hop. D. Rock and roll.
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了爵士、布鲁斯、摇滚及嘻哈乐的起源及特色。
【1题详解】
推理判断题。根据New Orleans 一节中“Those lively rhythms of Africa ran head on with the sounds of Europe to create jazz, a typical American art form that has inspired generations of Americans and spread around the globe.

Evan Budz, a 15-year-old from Ontario, Canada, is receiving global recognition for his invention: an autonomous bionic sea turtle robot. The robot, which can monitor ecological systems underwater, won Budz a first-place prize in the European Union Contest for Young Scientists (EUCYS).
“The idea for this project struck me when I observed the fluent movement of a turtle while camping,” Budz said.
He saw potential in the way the turtle moved, compared with traditional systems of other autonomous robots. He created an approach that copied the way green sea turtles moved underwater. Not only is it a unique way to move through the water, but it also has less impact on the very environments scientists are trying to protect.
“Aquatic (水生的) habitats are vital to humanity, and the routine surveying of these environments has become critical,” Budz explained. “Using an innovative bionic robot for such an analysis ensures low ecological disruption (扰乱).” Budz said the robot used a computer vision imaging system to quantify coral health, which can detect coral bleaching (珊瑚白化) with 96% accuracy. “The information gathered by the robot will ideally allow the right organizations to identify where these threats may be occurring, increasing awareness and supporting efforts to increase the overall health of impacted areas,” Budz said.
“For ecological monitoring, I want to be as low as possible in terms of disruption to the environment,” Budz told CBC News. “So, by imitating the turtle, I can ensure that I don’t disrupt any other organisms while I’m conducting the monitor.” He tested the device in his grandparents’ backyard pool and determined that the robot was precise and reliable.
“Evan’s success at EUCYS 2025 shows that his project is truly world-class,” said Reni Barlow, the executive director at Youth Science Canada. “An extraordinary innovation that showcases the ability of Canadian youth to tackle complex technical and environmental challenges.” For Budz, it’s just a cause he has cared about for much of his adolescence.
4. What inspired Evan Budz to create his robot?
A. The decline of coral. B. The coral’s poor condition.
C. The motion of a turtle. D. The environmental issue.
5. What is an advantage of Evan Budz’s robot compared with traditional robots?
A. It can move freely underwater. B. It hardly disturbs other organisms.
C. It can check coral’s health. D. It ensures the regular surveying.
6. Why did Evan Budz test the robot in a backyard pool?
A. To meet his grandparents’ demands. B. To compare it with other robots.
C. To measure its speed in the deep sea. D. To test its accuracy and reliability.
7. What did Reni Barlow think of Evan Budz’s project?
A. Excellent. B. Traditional. C. Cost-effective. D. Time-saving.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. D 7. A

Back in the 1800s, Charles Darwin was among the first to come up with the idea that positive facial expressions can make us happier and negative facial expressions can make us sadder or angrier. And it is still taught in psychology classes today.
But researchers are now finding that this phenomenon may be more complex than they once thought. A study published last year that reviewed around 50 years of data, including the results of nearly 300 experiments testing “the facial feedback theory”, has found that the effects were extremely tiny.
“All told, only about 7% of the participants felt happier when they tried to put on smiling faces,” says Nick Coles who led the study. “The result adds to a debate that has been ongoing since the dawn of psychology.”
The debate over whether the simple act of moving one’s facial muscles into different shapes can make one feel happier or sadder has grown especially heated in the past few years. In another study, published in 2016, 17 labs around the globe failed to reproduce the results.
Although it was a big blow to “facial feedback theory”, in 2018, researchers in Israel reran the experiment once more. They said they were able to reproduce the results — as long as the participants weren’t being observed or filmed.
“It gets complicated,” says Paula Niedenthal who was not involved in the recent research. “Part of the reason for the disparate findings may be that there are slight differences in the dynamics of each expression. For example, there are lots of different kinds of smiles. Not all smiles are genuine smiles of joy, and they’re hard to re-create in a lab.”
Moreover, though most lab studies have found that there’s no harm in smiling, a study published this year found that service workers who had to put on a smile for customers all day had a higher risk of heavy drinking after work.
“I think we should hold back on telling people to turn their frowns upside down,” Niedenthal advises. “Because I know when I’m sad and people tell me to smile, it just makes me angrier.”
8. What might Charles Darwin suggest we do when we are sad?
A. Put on forced smiles. B. Seek advice from psychologists.
C. Think about happy things. D. Express our true feelings honestly.
9. How did Nick Coles carry out his study?
A. He did hundreds of experiments. B. He interviewed thousands of people.
C. He followed the participants for decades. D. He analyzed data from many related articles.
10. According to the latest study, forcing oneself to smile all day may lead to ________.
A. confidence B. depression C. relaxation D. embarrassment
11. What is Paula Niedenthal’s attitude to “the facial feedback theory”?
A. Favorable. B. Unconcerned. C. Disapproving. D. Unclear.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. B 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了许多研究表明强颜欢笑未必能改善心情。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Back in the 1800s, Charles Darwin was among the first to come up with the idea that positive facial expressions can make us happier and negative facial expressions can make us sadder or angrier. (早在19世纪,Charles Darwin就率先提出,积极的面部表情可以让我们更快乐,而消极的面部表情则可能让我们更悲伤或愤怒。)”可知,达尔文可能会建议我们在心情不好时,尽量保持笑脸。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“A study published last year that reviewed around 50 years of data, including the results of nearly 300 experiments testing “the facial feedback theory”, has found that the effects were extremely tiny. (去年发表的一项研究回顾了大约50年的数据,其中包括近300项测试“面部反馈理论”的实验结果,发现其影响微乎其微。)”及第三段““All told, only about 7% of the participants felt happier when they tried to put on smiling faces,” says Nick Coles who led the study. (“总的来说,只有大约7%的参与者在尝试做出笑脸时感到更快乐,”领导这项研究的Nick Coles说。)”可知,Nick Coles是通过分析其他学者的实验资料得出结论的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第七段“Moreover, though most lab studies have found that there’s no harm in smiling, a study published this year found that service workers who had to put on a smile for customers all day had a higher risk of heavy drinking after work. (此外,虽然大多数实验室研究都发现微笑无害,但今年发表的一项研究发现,全天都需要对顾客微笑的服务人员下班后酗酒的风险更高。)”可推知,最新的研究表明成天强颜欢笑可能会让人感到压抑。故选B。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Back in the 1800s, Charles Darwin was among the first to come up with the idea that positive facial expressions can make us happier and negative facial expressions can make us sadder or angrier. And it is still taught in psychology classes today. (早在19世纪,Charles Darwin就率先提出,积极的面部表情可以让我们更快乐,而消极的面部表情则可能让我们更悲伤或愤怒。这一观点至今仍在心理学课程中讲授。)”及最后一段“‘“I think we should hold back on telling people to turn their frowns upside down,” Niedenthal advises. “Because I know when I’m sad and people tell me to smile, it just makes me angrier.” (“我认为我们应该避免告诉人们要把皱眉改为微笑,”Niedenthal建议道。“因为我知道,当我难过的时候,人们告诉我微笑,这只会让我更生气。”)”可知,Paula Niedenthal并不认同达尔文的理论。故选C。
D
A new study out of King’s College London is giving people more of a reason than ever to plan a museum date. It was conducted by the researchers from the university, who got half of the participants, including 50 volunteers, aged 18 to 40, to view pieces by world-famous artists Manet, Van Gogh, and Gauguin in The Courtauld Gallery in London. The control group, on the other hand, looked at copies of the same artworks in a non-gallery environment.
All of the participants’ heart rate variability and skin temperatures were measured with sensors throughout the 20-minute art-viewing sessions, and saliva (唾液) samples were also taken before and after viewing.
The researchers found that cortisol levels — a key stress hormone (荷尔蒙) in the human body — fell by an average of 22% in the gallery group, compared to just 8% in the control group. The participants viewing original art in the gallery also had more active heart activity, which shows that art attracts the body. Another key finding was that pro-inflammatory (促炎症) proteins IL-6 and TNF-alpha also dropped by 30% and 28% respectively for those viewing art in galleries, with no observable changes for the control group.
“Stress hormones and inflammatory markers like IL-6 and TNF-alpha are related to many health problems, from heart disease to anxiety and depression,” explained Dr. Tony Woods, the study’s senior author. “The fact that viewing original art lowered these markers suggests that cultural experiences may play a real role in protecting both mind and body.”
Other previous studies have linked regular gallery visits to long-term well-being, but this study is the first to “capture real-time physiological benefits”, which shows an immediate positive impact. “This study proves for the first time that art really is good for you. What’s particularly exciting is that the findings show these benefits are pervasive — they can be experienced by anyone,” said Jenny Waldman, the director of Art Fund. “We want to encourage everyone to make time to visit their local museum or gallery, and discover just how good art can make you feel.”
12. What does the new study focus on?
A. Differences between artistic styles. B. Participants’ preferences for artists.
C. Effects of art on various environments. D. Participants’ physical reactions to art.
13. What is a finding of the study about viewing original art?
A. It mainly improves creative thinking.
B. It changes participants’ health indicators.
C. It demands a certain art appreciation level.
D. It has the greatest impact on mental health.
14. What does the underlined word “pervasive” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Surprising. B. Predictable. C. Universal. D. Continuous.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Museum Trips Bring Immediate Benefits. B. Copying Masterpieces Lowers Stress.
C. London Leads World Gallery Tours. D. Sensors Reveal Visitors’ Secrets.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了伦敦国王学院的一项新研究发现,观赏原创艺术作品能够带来即时的生理益处,如降低压力激素和促炎蛋白水平。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“All of the participants’ heart rate variability and skin temperatures were measured with sensors throughout the 20-minute art-viewing sessions, and saliva (唾液) samples were also taken before and after viewing.(在20分钟的艺术观赏过程中,所有参与者的心率变异性和皮肤温度都用传感器进行了测量,并且在观赏前后还采集了唾液样本)”可知,这项新研究关注的是参与者对艺术的生理反应。故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“The researchers found that cortisol levels — a key stress hormone (荷尔蒙) in the human body — fell by an average of 22% in the gallery group, compared to just 8% in the control group.(研究人员发现,画廊组参与者体内的一种关键压力激素——皮质醇水平平均下降了22%,而对照组仅为8%)”以及“Another key finding was that pro-inflammatory (促炎症) proteins IL-6 and TNF-alpha also dropped by 30% and 28% respectively for those viewing art in galleries, with no observable changes for the control group.(另一个关键发现是,对于在画廊观看艺术作品的人来说,促炎蛋白IL-6和TNF-alpha也分别下降了30%和28%,而对照组没有观察到变化)”可知,观赏原创艺术改变了参与者的健康指标。故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“they can be experienced by anyone(任何人都可以体验到)”可知,任何人都可以体验到这些益处,即这些益处是普遍存在的,故画线词意思是“普遍的”。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Other previous studies have linked regular gallery visits to long-term well-being, but this study is the first to “capture real-time physiological benefits”, which shows an immediate positive impact.(其他先前的研究已经将定期参观画廊与长期健康联系起来,但这项研究是第一个“捕捉到实时生理益处”的研究,显示了即时的积极影响)”结合文章主要说明了伦敦国王学院的一项新研究发现,观赏原创艺术作品能够带来即时的生理益处,如降低压力激素和促炎蛋白水平。可知,A选项“参观博物馆能带来立竿见影的好处”最符合文章标题。故选A。
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。
When I was little, my mom used some kind of blue stickiness material to secure basically everything around our house. Although it worked, it left behind a blue spot and sticky material that was almost impossible to remove, so we eventually stopped using it altogether and settled for drawers that moved their contents around whenever they were opened and closed. ___16___ — until I saw a much better alternative on social media. It's called museum gel (凝胶) and it can add the perfect finishing touch to all your organizing and displaying.
The museum gel is a clear gel that comes in a bottle and can be used to hold relatively light items in place. ___17___ . Also, it doesn't leave any marks behind and can even be reused.
I am always going on about how important it is to use containers to keep possessions organized by category. This is especially true in drawers, where you likely store a variety of small items in dividers, boxes, and specialty organizers. ___18___ , but the trouble starts when you close the drawer, causing everything to move around. The museum gel is the solution to that problem. A pea-sized bit of gel under the corners of each organizer or container will stop them from moving when you open and close the drawer.
___19___ . You can use museum gel for an easy way to hang light papers, like a kid's drawings, or add extra security and straightening power to heavier frames (支架) on the wall. This isn't going to replace nails for holding up the heavy things, but it will help some items stay straight and secure on the wall. Also consider it for anything you keep displayed on shelves or flat surfaces, like picture frames, clocks, or valuable items. ___20___ . There are a lot of possibilities here.
A. But it can do even more.
B. I never really thought about it again.
C. It falls off from walls and surfaces easily.
D. However, I'm probably not going to shop some.
E. Stick it under your candles for some extra safety, too.
F. It never means it can be reused all the time as you imagine.
G. All of those work amazingly for keeping your categories separate.
【答案】16. B 17. C 18. G 19. A 20. E
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。作者结合自己的经历——无意中发现博物馆凝胶可固定轻物品、不留痕且能解决抽屉物品移动问题,说明了博物馆凝胶可用于多种物品,用途广泛。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Although it worked, it left behind a blue spot and sticky material that was almost impossible to remove, so we eventually stopped using it altogether and settled for drawers that moved their contents around whenever they were opened and closed.(虽然它有效,但它会留下一个几乎无法去除的蓝色斑点和粘性物质,所以我们最终完全停止使用它,转而使用抽屉,每当抽屉打开和关闭时,里面的东西都会移动。)”和下文“— until I saw a much better alternative on social media(——直到我在社交媒体上看到了一个更好的替代品。)”可知,上下文存在转折关系,上文提到作者家里不再使用那种蓝色的粘性材料,下文提到作者看到了一个更好的替代品。由此可推知,空白处应表示在那之后作者再也没有想过那种蓝色的粘性材料了。选项B“我再也没想过它了”符合语境。故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“The museum gel is a clear gel that comes in a bottle and can be used to hold relatively light items in place.(博物馆凝胶是一种装在瓶子里的透明凝胶,可以用来固定相对较轻的物品。)”和下文“Also, it doesn’t leave any marks behind and can even be reused.(而且,它不会留下任何痕迹,甚至可以重复使用。)”可推知,空白处应陈述这种凝胶的某个特点。选项C“它很容易从墙壁和表面脱落”是在陈述这种凝胶的一个特点,且与下文提到的“不会留下痕迹”形成对比,符合语境。故选C。
【18题详解】
根据上文“This is especially true in drawers, where you likely store a variety of small items in dividers, boxes, and specialty organizers.(抽屉里尤其如此,你可能在分隔器、盒子和特殊整理器中存放各种小物件。)”和下文“but the trouble starts when you close the drawer, causing everything to move around.(但当你关上抽屉时,麻烦就开始了,因为抽屉里的所有东西都会移动。)”可推知,空白处应表示用分隔器、盒子和特殊整理器来存放小物件是有效的。选项G“所有这些在让你的分类保持分开方面都惊人地有效”符合语境,其中“All of those”指代上文提到的“dividers, boxes, and specialty organizers”。故选G。
【19题详解】
根据下文“You can use museum gel for an easy way to hang light papers, like a kid’s drawings, or add extra security and straightening power to heavier frames (支架) on the wall.(你可以使用博物馆凝胶来轻松悬挂轻质纸张,比如孩子的画,或者为墙上较重的框架增加额外的安全性和矫正力。)”可推知,空白处应表示这种凝胶除了上文提到的固定物品的功能外,还可以做更多的事情。选项A“但它还能做更多”符合语境。故选A。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Also consider it for anything you keep displayed on shelves or flat surfaces, like picture frames, clocks, or valuable items.(也可以考虑用它来固定你放在架子或平面上展示的任何东西,比如相框、钟表或贵重物品。)”和下文“There are a lot of possibilities here.(这里有很多可能性。)”可推知,空白处应继续列举这种凝胶的其他用途。选项E“把它粘在蜡烛下面以增加一些额外的安全性”是在列举这种凝胶的另一个用途,符合语境。故选E。

39. to stimulate
40. has become
41. being offered##having been offered
42. and 43. interested
44. strongly

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Tatiana Erukhimova教授与其他人合作制作了一系列视频,这些视频以一种有趣而有深刻见解的方式展示物理在现实世界中的应用,赢得了世界各地粉丝的喜爱。
【36题详解】
考查名词性从句。句意:这就是为什么Tatiana Erukhimova教授与其他人合作制作了一系列视频,以有趣而富有洞察力的方式展示了物理在现实世界中的应用。引导表语从句,从句缺少原因状语,故此处用why引导表语从句。故填why。
【37题详解】
考查倒装和动词时态。句意:不仅每个视频中的解释都很容易理解,而且Erukhimova的热情才是真正吸引观众的地方。根据后一句的谓语动词comes可知,该空所在句应用一般现在时。not only位于句首,前面的分句需要倒装,主语是the explanations,谓语用复数。故填are。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意:不仅每个视频中的解释都很容易理解,而且Erukhimova的热情才是真正吸引观众的地方。根据空前的修饰部分Erukhimova’s及空后的系动词is可知应用名词enthusiasm做主语。故填enthusiasm。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:Erukhimova独特的教学方法源于她希望通过示范课激发学生对物理的兴趣。此处用所给动词的不定式作后置定语修饰名词hope。故填to stimulate。
【40题详解】
考查动词时态和主谓一致。句意:出生于物理学家家庭的Erukhimova从小就对这个领域产生了浓厚的兴趣。根据空后的时间状语从句since she was very little可知用现在完成时,主语为Erukhimova。故填has become。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:大约25年前,Erukhimova在得州农工大学获得了一个职位,之后她从俄罗斯搬到了得州。空前是介词after,故该空用所给词的动名词作宾语,且offer与Erukhimova存在动宾关系,故此处用being done形式,或表示动作已经完成用having been done也可以。故填being offered/having been offered。
【42题详解】
考查固定短语。句意:从那以后,她以独特的方式解释科学,赢得了大学生和普通观众的喜爱。此处为短语both...and...,表示“两者都”。故填and。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:虽然Erukhimova意识到人们可能不会从观看短视频中学到很多东西,但让他们对学习更多内容感兴趣和好奇是值得的。此处为get+宾语+宾补结构,them与interest为被动关系,故用过去分词作宾语补足语。故填interested。
【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:她说:“我坚信,不是每个人都必须主修物理,但每个人都必须有机会玩它,尊重科学的结果,并有机会了解它是多么有趣。”修饰动词believe应用副词strongly。故填strongly。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意:她说:“我坚信,不是每个人都必须主修物理,但每个人都必须有机会玩它,尊重科学的结果,并有机会了解它是多么有趣。”短语major in...意为“主修……”。故填in。

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。
I used to enjoy going to my aunt’s flower farm. But not recently, because my newly born sister, Rosa, was settled in my old bedroom. For many years, I stored my books and toys in that small room. But now it was changed into her baby room. Both my space and my old life were gone.
One sunny morning, my aunt took me to her farm again. When we arrived there, my aunt said I could pick some flowers for my parents. I used to love this, but today I was so overcome with tired nest and envy that I did not move.
“Why bother to bother them flowers when they are enjoying Rosa at home without me?” I thought while silently helping mg aunt arrange flowers.
“Your mother told me that there hadn’t been much sleep recently for any of you,” my aunt said.
“The alarm clock in Rosa’s room kept going off,” I complained with a huge yawn(哈欠).
I remember that I had to walk around the house like a worn-out mouse when your mother was a baby. I spent the first months hating her so much, “my aunt laughed.” But you and my mother seem so close,” I said, guiltily hiding away my envy of Rosa.” “Now, we are. But it took me years to get used to the role of being a big sister,” she said and pulled me into her arms. “It really takes time, you know.”
A few seconds later, my aunt took me for a walk along the road which was dotted with beautiful flowers. I began to pick the little flowers as we talked. It was like collecting my childhood memories. I remembered how I’d made flower chains with my father, while giving each other the silliest names such as Princess of Snacks and King of Junk Food. Little by little, my face lit up and the flowers reminded me of the bright colors in my baby sister’s room. “Is she awake?” I wondered.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, I saw my parents walking towards me along the road.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the picnic, we went to pick some flowers.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Suddenly, I saw my parents walking towards me along the road. They took my baby sister in the baby basket, I looked at them in disbelief. When they came near, my father made faces toward me and spread the picnic blanket on an empty place beside the road. My mother then put down the baby basket on it. We all sat down on it and enjoyed the snacks. Suddenly, my father placed my sister’s hat on my head and declared. “Sleepy Beauty!” We all burst out laughing.
After the picnic, we went to pick some flowers. A moment later, I heard funny noises coming from the baby basket. I tiptoed to it and looked in. My baby sister was wide awake and was playing with her mouth water in her baby basket. Staring at her lovely cheeks and rosy lips, I found myself reaching out to the little creature. To my amazement, she grabbed onto my little finger. At the very moment, I felt a magic bond growing between Rosa and me.

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
These destinations march to the beat of their own drum. So put on your dancing shoes and head to these sweet-sounding cities.
New Orleans
In the 19th century, slaves gathered on Sundays to play drums, dance, and sing in Congo Square. Those lively rhythms of Africa ran head on with the sounds of Europe to create jazz, a typical American art form that has inspired generations of Americans and spread around the globe. But this isn’t suit-wearing, head-nodding, polite jazz. New Orleans jazz sweeps you off your feet and makes you jump and clap and sing along.
Chicago
Large numbers of African Americans left the South in search of better opportunities during 1916~1970 and Chicago attracted scores of these people, who brought with them the sound of the Mississippi River. Here, it changed into something sad and symphonic: blues. Blues was not born in Chicago, but it was here that it found a new voice and began to spread its message around the world.
Memphis
Memphis is the birthplace of rock and roll. It was here in Sun Studios in the summer of 1951 that Ike Turner and his band the Delta Cats recorded “Rocket 88”, widely regarded as the first rock and roll song. But, like so many great things, it happened by accident the guitarist’s loudspeaker broke down during the recording, creating a unique guitar sound that would become a hallmark of the music. People didn’t know how to classify it, but they knew they loved it. The rest is history.
New York City
New York is one of the world’s greatest cities where you can listen to all kinds of music. But to experience a true New York state of mind, you have to leave the shiny towers and Broadway shows of Manhattan and head to Harlem, the Bronx, Brooklyn, and Queens to explore the city’s hip-hop history.
1. What do New Orleans jazz and Chicago blues have in common?
A. They sound very sad. B. They have similar origin.
C. They happened by accident. D. They are played on the guitar.
2. When was rock and roll born?
A. In the 19th century. B. In the late 19th century.
C. In the early 20th century. D. In the mid-20th century.
3. What are Harlem and Queers known for?
A. Blues. B. Jazz. C. Hip-hop. D. Rock and roll.

Evan Budz, a 15-year-old from Ontario, Canada, is receiving global recognition for his invention: an autonomous bionic sea turtle robot. The robot, which can monitor ecological systems underwater, won Budz a first-place prize in the European Union Contest for Young Scientists (EUCYS).
“The idea for this project struck me when I observed the fluent movement of a turtle while camping,” Budz said.
He saw potential in the way the turtle moved, compared with traditional systems of other autonomous robots. He created an approach that copied the way green sea turtles moved underwater. Not only is it a unique way to move through the water, but it also has less impact on the very environments scientists are trying to protect.
“Aquatic (水生的) habitats are vital to humanity, and the routine surveying of these environments has become critical,” Budz explained. “Using an innovative bionic robot for such an analysis ensures low ecological disruption (扰乱).” Budz said the robot used a computer vision imaging system to quantify coral health, which can detect coral bleaching (珊瑚白化) with 96% accuracy. “The information gathered by the robot will ideally allow the right organizations to identify where these threats may be occurring, increasing awareness and supporting efforts to increase the overall health of impacted areas,” Budz said.
“For ecological monitoring, I want to be as low as possible in terms of disruption to the environment,” Budz told CBC News. “So, by imitating the turtle, I can ensure that I don’t disrupt any other organisms while I’m conducting the monitor.” He tested the device in his grandparents’ backyard pool and determined that the robot was precise and reliable.
“Evan’s success at EUCYS 2025 shows that his project is truly world-class,” said Reni Barlow, the executive director at Youth Science Canada. “An extraordinary innovation that showcases the ability of Canadian youth to tackle complex technical and environmental challenges.” For Budz, it’s just a cause he has cared about for much of his adolescence.
4. What inspired Evan Budz to create his robot?
A. The decline of coral. B. The coral’s poor condition.
C. The motion of a turtle. D. The environmental issue.
5. What is an advantage of Evan Budz’s robot compared with traditional robots?
A. It can move freely underwater. B. It hardly disturbs other organisms.
C. It can check coral’s health. D. It ensures the regular surveying.
6. Why did Evan Budz test the robot in a backyard pool?
A. To meet his grandparents’ demands. B. To compare it with other robots.
C. To measure its speed in the deep sea. D. To test its accuracy and reliability.
7. What did Reni Barlow think of Evan Budz’s project?
A. Excellent. B. Traditional. C. Cost-effective. D. Time-saving.

Back in the 1800s, Charles Darwin was among the first to come up with the idea that positive facial expressions can make us happier and negative facial expressions can make us sadder or angrier. And it is still taught in psychology classes today.
But researchers are now finding that this phenomenon may be more complex than they once thought. A study published last year that reviewed around 50 years of data, including the results of nearly 300 experiments testing “the facial feedback theory”, has found that the effects were extremely tiny.
“All told, only about 7% of the participants felt happier when they tried to put on smiling faces,” says Nick Coles who led the study. “The result adds to a debate that has been ongoing since the dawn of psychology.”
The debate over whether the simple act of moving one’s facial muscles into different shapes can make one feel happier or sadder has grown especially heated in the past few years. In another study, published in 2016, 17 labs around the globe failed to reproduce the results.
Although it was a big blow to “facial feedback theory”, in 2018, researchers in Israel reran the experiment once more. They said they were able to reproduce the results — as long as the participants weren’t being observed or filmed.
“It gets complicated,” says Paula Niedenthal who was not involved in the recent research. “Part of the reason for the disparate findings may be that there are slight differences in the dynamics of each expression. For example, there are lots of different kinds of smiles. Not all smiles are genuine smiles of joy, and they’re hard to re-create in a lab.”
Moreover, though most lab studies have found that there’s no harm in smiling, a study published this year found that service workers who had to put on a smile for customers all day had a higher risk of heavy drinking after work.
“I think we should hold back on telling people to turn their frowns upside down,” Niedenthal advises. “Because I know when I’m sad and people tell me to smile, it just makes me angrier.”
8. What might Charles Darwin suggest we do when we are sad?
A. Put on forced smiles. B. Seek advice from psychologists.
C. Think about happy things. D. Express our true feelings honestly.
9. How did Nick Coles carry out his study?

A new study out of King’s College London is giving people more of a reason than ever to plan a museum date. It was conducted by the researchers from the university, who got half of the participants, including 50 volunteers, aged 18 to 40, to view pieces by world-famous artists Manet, Van Gogh, and Gauguin in The Courtauld Gallery in London. The control group, on the other hand, looked at copies of the same artworks in a non-gallery environment.
All of the participants’ heart rate variability and skin temperatures were measured with sensors throughout the 20-minute art-viewing sessions, and saliva (唾液) samples were also taken before and after viewing.
The researchers found that cortisol levels — a key stress hormone (荷尔蒙) in the human body — fell by an average of 22% in the gallery group, compared to just 8% in the control group. The participants viewing original art in the gallery also had more active heart activity, which shows that art attracts the body. Another key finding was that pro-inflammatory (促炎症) proteins IL-6 and TNF-alpha also dropped by 30% and 28% respectively for those viewing art in galleries, with no observable changes for the control group.
“Stress hormones and inflammatory markers like IL-6 and TNF-alpha are related to many health problems, from heart disease to anxiety and depression,” explained Dr. Tony Woods, the study’s senior author. “The fact that viewing original art lowered these markers suggests that cultural experiences may play a real role in protecting both mind and body.”
Other previous studies have linked regular gallery visits to long-term well-being, but this study is the first to “capture real-time physiological benefits”, which shows an immediate positive impact. “This study proves for the first time that art really is good for you. What’s particularly exciting is that the findings show these benefits are pervasive — they can be experienced by anyone,” said Jenny Waldman, the director of Art Fund. “We want to encourage everyone to make time to visit their local museum or gallery, and discover just how good art can make you feel.”
12. What does the new study focus on?
A. Differences between artistic styles. B. Participants’ preferences for artists.
C. Effects of art on various environments. D. Participants’ physical reactions to art.
13. What is a finding of the study about viewing original art?
A. It mainly improves creative thinking.
B. It changes participants’ health indicators.
C. It demands a certain art appreciation level.
D. It has the greatest impact on mental health.
14. What does the underlined word “pervasive” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Surprising. B. Predictable. C. Universal. D. Continuous.
15. Which of the following can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Museum Trips Bring Immediate Benefits. B. Copying Masterpieces Lowers Stress.
C. London Leads World Gallery Tours. D. Sensors Reveal Visitors’ Secrets.

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。
When I was little, my mom used some kind of blue stickiness material to secure basically everything around our house. Although it worked, it left behind a blue spot and sticky material that was almost impossible to remove, so we eventually stopped using it altogether and settled for drawers that moved their contents around whenever they were opened and closed. ___16___ — until I saw a much better alternative on social media. It's called museum gel (凝胶) and it can add the perfect finishing touch to all your organizing and displaying.
The museum gel is a clear gel that comes in a bottle and can be used to hold relatively light items in place. ___17___ . Also, it doesn't leave any marks behind and can even be reused.
I am always going on about how important it is to use containers to keep possessions organized by category. This is especially true in drawers, where you likely store a variety of small items in dividers, boxes, and specialty organizers. ___18___ , but the trouble starts when you close the drawer, causing everything to move around. The museum gel is the solution to that problem. A pea-sized bit of gel under the corners of each organizer or container will stop them from moving when you open and close the drawer.
___19___ . You can use museum gel for an easy way to hang light papers, like a kid's drawings, or add extra security and straightening power to heavier frames (支架) on the wall. This isn't going to replace nails for holding up the heavy things, but it will help some items stay straight and secure on the wall. Also consider it for anything you keep displayed on shelves or flat surfaces, like picture frames, clocks, or valuable items. ___20___ . There are a lot of possibilities here.
A. But it can do even more.
B. I never really thought about it again.
C. It falls off from walls and surfaces easily.
D. However, I'm probably not going to shop some.
E. Stick it under your candles for some extra safety, too.
F. It never means it can be reused all the time as you imagine.
G. All of those work amazingly for keeping your categories separate.

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。
I used to enjoy going to my aunt’s flower farm. But not recently, because my newly born sister, Rosa, was settled in my old bedroom. For many years, I stored my books and toys in that small room. But now it was changed into her baby room. Both my space and my old life were gone.
One sunny morning, my aunt took me to her farm again. When we arrived there, my aunt said I could pick some flowers for my parents. I used to love this, but today I was so overcome with tired nest and envy that I did not move.
“Why bother to bother them flowers when they are enjoying Rosa at home without me?” I thought while silently helping mg aunt arrange flowers.
“Your mother told me that there hadn’t been much sleep recently for any of you,” my aunt said.
“The alarm clock in Rosa’s room kept going off,” I complained with a huge yawn(哈欠).
I remember that I had to walk around the house like a worn-out mouse when your mother was a baby. I spent the first months hating her so much, “my aunt laughed.” But you and my mother seem so close,” I said, guiltily hiding away my envy of Rosa.” “Now, we are. But it took me years to get used to the role of being a big sister,” she said and pulled me into her arms. “It really takes time, you know.”
A few seconds later, my aunt took me for a walk along the road which was dotted with beautiful flowers. I began to pick the little flowers as we talked. It was like collecting my childhood memories. I remembered how I’d made flower chains with my father, while giving each other the silliest names such as Princess of Snacks and King of Junk Food. Little by little, my face lit up and the flowers reminded me of the bright colors in my baby sister’s room. “Is she awake?” I wondered.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly, I saw my parents walking towards me along the road.
