(本题7.5分)A project called “I Am A Scientist” is giving middle and high school students the opportunity to interact with modern-day researchers. Below are stories from some of the scientists who are involved in the program.Noor Al-Alusi, Epidemiologist (流行病学家)
“I have a black belt in Taekwondo (跆拳道). I am driven by a deep desire to help others. I believe that all people have a fundamental right to health care.”
Her work: During the Zika epidemic, Al-Alusi met with the communities that had been hardest hit by the virus, using data and mathematical models to keep them safe and healthy.
Background: Al-Alusi was born in California but her parents emigrated from Iraq. This experience provided her with an understanding of the health needs of the immigrant community.Ryoji Amamoto, Neurobiologist (神经生物学家)
“I’m a huge sports fan. I’ve traveled to more than 40 countries. I’m a licensed scuba diver but a terrible swimmer. I hated science in high school.”
His work: Amamoto studies the tiny but amazing brains of animals that have a superpower — the ability to regenerate. He learns what factors help these special brains regrow, so that we can try to treat diseases like Parkinson’s.
Background: Amamoto lived in Japan until the age of eight, when his family moved to Chicago. He had to overcome major language barriers which saw him shift between speaking English at school and Japanese at home.Yamicia Connor, Physician Scientist
“I once competed in a robot competition. I love Beyonce. I love cooking. I’m a doctor who studies ways to improve women’s health.”
Her work: Connor is a doctor at a hospital in Boston where she studies cancer cells in a lab using microscopes and computers, but she also works directly with patients who are undergoing tests for new cancer treatments.

(本题10分)Dindim is a penguin who travels 5,000 miles every year to visit its rescuer.
On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Joao Pereira de Souza was headed out fishing. He found surprisingly that an oil spill had polluted the waters badly. Staring out at the waves, he decided it was not a good day to fish. But walking the beach, he found a struggling penguin, covered by oil and starving. Pereira took the penguin home, gently cleaned it and spent the next week nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim.
Dindim is a Magellanic penguin, a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to breed (繁殖), they must return to Patagonia, an island 8,000 miles away from Pereira’s home. Pereira patiently took Dindim back to the ocean and taught him how to swim again.
Soon enough, it was time for Dindim to return to life in the wild. Pereira watched Dindim swim away, believing it would be the last time he saw him. But the next June, Dindim returned. The two shared a tender beak-to-nose greeting, and Dindim stayed for a month, walking heavily and clumsily (笨拙地) around Pereira’s house. It was time for Dindim to leave, and Pereira thought this surely would be the last time he would see Dindim. But 11 months later, the penguin with a long memory returned again.
It is a common belief among scientists that animals have short memories. So a couple of them put a tracking device on Dindim to see if it was indeed the same penguin that returned year after year. To their surprise, Dindim returned, year after year, for more than a decade.
Love creates so deep a bond (纽带) that we can’t always explain it. It’s just something we feel, something we long to provide. And when we do, it lasts much longer than we ever expected.
24.(2.5分)What caused Dindim to get hurt?
A.A hurricane. B.A fight with Pereira.
C.An oil spill. D.An unknown disease.
25.(2.5分)What can we infer from paragraph 4?
A.Dindim is a forgettable penguin. B.Dindim returned to Pereira for food.
C.Pereira wished Dindim not to return. D.Pereira and Dindim loved each other.
26.(2.5分)What did the scientists think of Dindim’s story?
A.Unbelievable. B.Inspiring. C.Original. D.Typical.
27.(2.5分)What does the text tell us?
A.Time and tide wait for no man. B.Success belongs to the persevering.
C.Love creates a bond and relationship. D.All things are difficult before they are easy.
(本题10分)A famous American poet Robert Frost once said, “Poetry is what gets lost in translation. ”But XuYuanchong, well-known Chinese translator, had tried to convey the beauty of ancient Chinese poetry throughout his life. His teacher Qian Zhongshu commented on his poetry translation, “You are dancing while chained by rhyme and rhythm, but the dance shows amazing freedom and beauty, which is quite impressive.”
Since 1978, Xu had published more than 100 translated works in Chinese, English and French, reaching millions of readers at home and abroad. Most notably, he translated Chinese poems into rhymed verses in both English and French. He was also the first Asian winner of the Aurora Borealis Prize for Outstanding Translation of Fiction Literature.
Xu was known to be very fastidious in his work. For him, English is a “ scientific” language that needs exactness while Chinese is an “artistic” language that includes a wider range of content. Following this principle, Xu kept not only faithfulness in the sense but beauty in sensibility in his translation.
Through Xu’s translations, time-honored Chinese wisdom has made an impact on Western societies and the world. For example, when former US president Barack Obama tried to begin a healthcare project during his presidency, some senators disagreed at first. But after reading the poem titled Fishing in Snow translated by Xu, one senator was so impressed with the fisherman’s independent thinking that he chose to part with the party line to support Obama.
Having made such great achievements, Xu maintained a routine. Every day he translated about1, 000 words, working till 3 to 4 a. m., sleeping for about 3 hours and getting up at 6 a. m. to continue.“ Translation is a means of communicating with the writer’s soul. A sudden flicker of a good word or a good line thrills every pore (毛孔) and every inch of my skin,” Xu said.
28.(2.5分)What does the text tell us about Xu Yuanchong?
A.He mastered at least three foreign languages.
B.He translated about 100 Chinese works into English.
C.He was the first winner of the Aurora Borcalis Prize.
D.He was widely known for his translated rhymed verses.
29.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “fastidious” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A.Particular. B.Satisfied. C.Inventive. D.Productive.
30.(2.5分)Why does the author give the example in Paragraph 4?
A.To recommend Xu’s translation works. B.To stress the charm of Chinese poetry.
C.To show Xu’s great translation skills. D.To prove the wisdom of the ancient Chinese.
31.(2.5分)Which of the following words can best describe Xu?
A.Thoughtful and modest. B.Generous and objective
C.Creative and open-minded. D.Devoted and hard-working.
(本题10分)A group of Chinese researchers and clinical neurologists has made a new breakthrough in brain-computer interface (BCI) (脑机接口) technology, enabling 10 individuals to communicate complex Chinese sentences through their thoughts alone. The technology, currently in clinical trials, offers new hope for patients with speech loss due to conditions such as stroke.
Scientists from Shanghai-based startup INSIDE and Huashan Hospital implanted electrodes (电极) into participants with epilepsy (癫痫). After an average of just 100 minutes of training, their custom-built intelligent system read and interpreted brain activities associated with the intended speech of 54 Chinese characters in real time. Training on those characters then enabled the system to interpret 1,951 common words correctly and generate complete Chinese sentences in less than half a second, with virtually no length limit.
“Unlike English’s basic speech sounds, Chinese involves over 400 different syllables,” explains Li Meng, INSIDE’s chief scientist. The team trained on data from the world’s largest human brainwave database built by Huashan Hospital, and the AI identified basic sounds of speech with over 83 percent accuracy, according to Li.
Looking ahead, researchers envision the interpreted text allowing users to control smart environments, or even generate expressive artworks through generative AI systems. Huashan Hospital has played a key role in brain-computer interface clinical trials. In August 2024, neurosurgeons at the Hospital implanted a 256-channel flexible BCI device designed by the Shanghai-based NeuroXess into a 21-year-old female patient with epilepsy. Within 48 hours, the patient successfully engaged in table tennis and snake computer games through brain control. In June 2025, a Chinese man who had lost his arms and legs in a terrible accident 13 years ago was shown playing chess and racing games using only his mind. This followed the implantation of a BCI device developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Recognizing BCI as a strategic future industry, Shanghai aims to achieve high-quality brain control and fully integrate BCI products into clinical applications by 2030.
32.(2.5分)What can be learned about BCI technology from Paragraph 1?
A.It improves communication skills. B.It translates thoughts into sentences.
C.It helps to treat stroke patients. D.It serves as a Chinese learning tool.
33.(2.5分)Which of the following best describes the training?
A.Traditional. B.Personalized. C.Thorough. D.Efficient.
34.(2.5分)Why does the author mention the two examples in Paragraph 4?
A.To explain the working process of BCI.
B.To show the promising future of BCI.
C.To describe the history of Huashan Hospital.
D.To display the variety of BCI devices.
35.(2.5分)What is a suitable title for the text?
A.AI: Controlling Games with Mind B.INSIDE: Building BCI Industry
C.Implants: Reading Brain Signals D.BCI: Giving Voice to Thought
(本题12.5分)Some people seem to handle life’s ups and downs without needing much support, encouragement, and motivation (激励) from others. 36(2.5分) Of course, we all need a little help and guidance sometimes. But these habits are what independent people do that make them so successful in life.
37(2.5分) Independent people certainly don’t need any help getting up in the morning! They are self-reliant and know that success means “hanging in there”. They don’t need praise, encouragement, and recognition from others that they are on the right path. They know they can get the job done, and that excitement is what keeps them going.
They prioritize (优先考虑) their goals and dreams. 38(2.5分) Some people allow their hopes and dreams to be just that, and they pay too much attention to the naysayers (摇头族) who tell them it’ll never happen. Self sufficient people don’t get distracted or discouraged by those who put a downer on their ideas. They know the path to success may not be easy, and that there may be setbacks along the way, but they believe in what they can achieve.
They know themselves well. Independent people are self-assured. They are aware of their strengths and their weaknesses. 39(2.5分) Of course, it’s nice for people to think highly of you, but independent people don’t need this approval in order to think highly of themselves.
They learn from their mistakes and don’t see them as failures. Just like all of us, independent people get things wrong. The only difference is that those who are self-sufficient don’t need any comfort when things don’t go as planned. 40(2.5分)
A.And they make those dreams happen.
B.They just stop for a solution and try again.
C.Change doesn’t get in the way of their success.
D.They are passionately driven and extremely self-motivated.
E.They are most successful when they are left to find things out for themselves.
F.What’s more, they don’t need continuous advice or encouragement from others.
G.Some rely on others to help them make decisions, facing even the simplest daily tasks.

An abandoned dog stopped at the front door of the Laceys’ small house, wagging its tail, trembling with shyness and cold. Doris Lacey, whose school had been called off because of the snow, spotted the creature and immediately went up to meet it.
“Where did that come from?” Mrs. Lacey asked as soon as Doris put the dog down in the kitchen. Mr. Lacey was at the table, cleaning his fingernails. “I don’t know where it came from, ” he said mildly, “but I know for sure where it’s going.”
Doris hugged the dog hard against her. She said nothing.
Because of the snow, the roads would be too bad for travel for many days. Mr. Lacey couldn’t get out to take the dog to the animal shelter in the city right away. He agreed to let it sleep in the basement while Mrs. Lacey unwillingly let Doris feed it leftover food.
Four days passed and the dog did not complain. It never cried in the night or barked at the wind. It didn’t tear up everything in the basement. It wouldn’t even follow Doris up the basement steps unless it was invited. It was a good dog.
Several times Doris had opened the door in the kitchen that led to the basement and the puppy had been there, all stretched out, on the top step. Doris knew it had wanted some company and that it had lain against the door, listening to the talk in the kitchen, smelling the food, being a part of things. It always wagged its tail, eyes all sleepy, when she found it there.
Even after a week had gone by, Doris didn’t name the dog. She knew her parents wouldn’t let her keep it, that her father made so little money and any pets were out of the question, and that the dog would definitely go to the shelter when the weather cleared. Still, she tried talking to them about the dog at dinner one night. “She’s a good dog and not much trouble, right?” Doris said, hoping one of them would agree with her. But Mr. Lacey shook his head, “You know we can’t afford a dog, Doris. You try to act more grown-up about this.” Doris fell silent, praying the weather would never clear.
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。
However, the sun was shining the next morning.

Later that afternoon, Mr. Lacey came back with the same dog.

【答案】18.C 19.A 20.A
【原文】
Hello, everyone. Maybe some of you have read in the newspaper about a new robot. It is reported that in Kyoto a supermarket has tried to employ robots to help elderly shoppers. The robots are 120 centimeters tall and 40 centimeters wide. Only about 20 senior shoppers in the supermarket would get a chance to use them through March. All they need to do is put their shopping lists into a special machine at home, and then the machine sends the lists to the supermarket. When they arrive at the supermarket, the robots greet them at the entrance. While shopping, the robots hold the basket for them. The robots make real-voice suggestions such as, “Great oranges. I’d eat them.” What’s more, if the shoppers forget something, the robot can remind them. A 66-year-old housewife named Hasegawa said that shopping with a robot was so pleasant, and that it was like she was shopping with her own children.

(本题10分)Dindim is a penguin who travels 5,000 miles every year to visit its rescuer.
On a typical day, off the coast of a small Brazilian island, Joao Pereira de Souza was headed out fishing. He found surprisingly that an oil spill had polluted the waters badly. Staring out at the waves, he decided it was not a good day to fish. But walking the beach, he found a struggling penguin, covered by oil and starving. Pereira took the penguin home, gently cleaned it and spent the next week nursing it back to health. He named it Dindim.
Dindim is a Magellanic penguin, a species known for living in the seas of South America. In order to breed (繁殖), they must return to Patagonia, an island 8,000 miles away from Pereira’s home. Pereira patiently took Dindim back to the ocean and taught him how to swim again.
Soon enough, it was time for Dindim to return to life in the wild. Pereira watched Dindim swim away, believing it would be the last time he saw him. But the next June, Dindim returned. The two shared a tender beak-to-nose greeting, and Dindim stayed for a month, walking heavily and clumsily (笨拙地) around Pereira’s house. It was time for Dindim to leave, and Pereira thought this surely would be the last time he would see Dindim. But 11 months later, the penguin with a long memory returned again.
It is a common belief among scientists that animals have short memories. So a couple of them put a tracking device on Dindim to see if it was indeed the same penguin that returned year after year. To their surprise, Dindim returned, year after year, for more than a decade.
Love creates so deep a bond (纽带) that we can’t always explain it. It’s just something we feel, something we long to provide. And when we do, it lasts much longer than we ever expected.
24.(2.5分)What caused Dindim to get hurt?
A.A hurricane. B.A fight with Pereira.
C.An oil spill. D.An unknown disease.
25.(2.5分)What can we infer from paragraph 4?

27.推理判断题。根据最后一段中的 “Love creates so deep a bond (纽带) that we can’t always explain it.(爱创造了一种如此深厚的联系,以至于我们并不总能解释清楚)” 以及文章讲述的佩雷拉和丁迪姆之间的故事可知,文章主要告诉我们爱能建立联系和关系。故选C项。
(本题10分)A famous American poet Robert Frost once said, “Poetry is what gets lost in translation. ”But XuYuanchong, well-known Chinese translator, had tried to convey the beauty of ancient Chinese poetry throughout his life. His teacher Qian Zhongshu commented on his poetry translation, “You are dancing while chained by rhyme and rhythm, but the dance shows amazing freedom and beauty, which is quite impressive.”
Since 1978, Xu had published more than 100 translated works in Chinese, English and French, reaching millions of readers at home and abroad. Most notably, he translated Chinese poems into rhymed verses in both English and French. He was also the first Asian winner of the Aurora Borealis Prize for Outstanding Translation of Fiction Literature.
Xu was known to be very fastidious in his work. For him, English is a “ scientific” language that needs exactness while Chinese is an “artistic” language that includes a wider range of content. Following this principle, Xu kept not only faithfulness in the sense but beauty in sensibility in his translation.
Through Xu’s translations, time-honored Chinese wisdom has made an impact on Western societies and the world. For example, when former US president Barack Obama tried to begin a healthcare project during his presidency, some senators disagreed at first. But after reading the poem titled Fishing in Snow translated by Xu, one senator was so impressed with the fisherman’s independent thinking that he chose to part with the party line to support Obama.
Having made such great achievements, Xu maintained a routine. Every day he translated about1, 000 words, working till 3 to 4 a. m., sleeping for about 3 hours and getting up at 6 a. m. to continue.“ Translation is a means of communicating with the writer’s soul. A sudden flicker of a good word or a good line thrills every pore (毛孔) and every inch of my skin,” Xu said.
28.(2.5分)What does the text tell us about Xu Yuanchong?
A.He mastered at least three foreign languages.
B.He translated about 100 Chinese works into English.
C.He was the first winner of the Aurora Borcalis Prize.

(本题10分)A group of Chinese researchers and clinical neurologists has made a new breakthrough in brain-computer interface (BCI) (脑机接口) technology, enabling 10 individuals to communicate complex Chinese sentences through their thoughts alone. The technology, currently in clinical trials, offers new hope for patients with speech loss due to conditions such as stroke.
Scientists from Shanghai-based startup INSIDE and Huashan Hospital implanted electrodes (电极) into participants with epilepsy (癫痫). After an average of just 100 minutes of training, their custom-built intelligent system read and interpreted brain activities associated with the intended speech of 54 Chinese characters in real time. Training on those characters then enabled the system to interpret 1,951 common words correctly and generate complete Chinese sentences in less than half a second, with virtually no length limit.
“Unlike English’s basic speech sounds, Chinese involves over 400 different syllables,” explains Li Meng, INSIDE’s chief scientist. The team trained on data from the world’s largest human brainwave database built by Huashan Hospital, and the AI identified basic sounds of speech with over 83 percent accuracy, according to Li.
Looking ahead, researchers envision the interpreted text allowing users to control smart environments, or even generate expressive artworks through generative AI systems. Huashan Hospital has played a key role in brain-computer interface clinical trials. In August 2024, neurosurgeons at the Hospital implanted a 256-channel flexible BCI device designed by the Shanghai-based NeuroXess into a 21-year-old female patient with epilepsy. Within 48 hours, the patient successfully engaged in table tennis and snake computer games through brain control. In June 2025, a Chinese man who had lost his arms and legs in a terrible accident 13 years ago was shown playing chess and racing games using only his mind. This followed the implantation of a BCI device developed by the Chinese Academy of Sciences.
Recognizing BCI as a strategic future industry, Shanghai aims to achieve high-quality brain control and fully integrate BCI products into clinical applications by 2030.
32.(2.5分)What can be learned about BCI technology from Paragraph 1?
A.It improves communication skills. B.It translates thoughts into sentences.
C.It helps to treat stroke patients. D.It serves as a Chinese learning tool.
33.(2.5分)Which of the following best describes the training?

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)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。
An abandoned dog stopped at the front door of the Laceys’ small house, wagging its tail, trembling with shyness and cold. Doris Lacey, whose school had been called off because of the snow, spotted the creature and immediately went up to meet it.
“Where did that come from?” Mrs. Lacey asked as soon as Doris put the dog down in the kitchen. Mr. Lacey was at the table, cleaning his fingernails. “I don’t know where it came from, ” he said mildly, “but I know for sure where it’s going.”
Doris hugged the dog hard against her. She said nothing.
Because of the snow, the roads would be too bad for travel for many days. Mr. Lacey couldn’t get out to take the dog to the animal shelter in the city right away. He agreed to let it sleep in the basement while Mrs. Lacey unwillingly let Doris feed it leftover food.
Four days passed and the dog did not complain. It never cried in the night or barked at the wind. It didn’t tear up everything in the basement. It wouldn’t even follow Doris up the basement steps unless it was invited. It was a good dog.
Several times Doris had opened the door in the kitchen that led to the basement and the puppy had been there, all stretched out, on the top step. Doris knew it had wanted some company and that it had lain against the door, listening to the talk in the kitchen, smelling the food, being a part of things. It always wagged its tail, eyes all sleepy, when she found it there.
Even after a week had gone by, Doris didn’t name the dog. She knew her parents wouldn’t let her keep it, that her father made so little money and any pets were out of the question, and that the dog would definitely go to the shelter when the weather cleared. Still, she tried talking to them about the dog at dinner one night. “She’s a good dog and not much trouble, right?” Doris said, hoping one of them would agree with her. But Mr. Lacey shook his head, “You know we can’t afford a dog, Doris. You try to act more grown-up about this.” Doris fell silent, praying the weather would never clear.
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。
However, the sun was shining the next morning.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Later that afternoon, Mr. Lacey came back with the same dog.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 However, the sun was shining the next morning. Doris was sitting alone in the living room trying not to cry, but she was not strong enough. Her face was wet and red, her eyes full of depression. Outside, she heard the trunk of the car slam shut, one of the doors open and close, the old engine cough and choke and finally start up. Hearing the car travel down the road, she could do nothing but cry herself to sleep, and her dreams were full of searching and searching for things lost.
Later that afternoon, Mr. Lacey came back with the same dog. Doris put her hand to her mouth. She couldn’t believe her eyes. “You didn’t take her away?” she asked. “I did,” her father answered. “The worst looking place I’ve ever seen. Ten dogs in a cage. Smell was enough to knock you down. And they give an animal six days to live. Then they kill it with some kind of a shot. I wouldn’t leave an ant in that place, so I brought the dog back.” Doris excitedly ran to her father and gave him a super big hug. What an unexpected surprise it is!
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Doris Lacey在家门口捡到一只流浪狗,父母都不同意在家里养它,但因为下雪路滑,爸爸同意小狗住在地下室。小狗在地下室很乖,Doris Lacey对它产生了感情,想要养它,但是她知道她家里的经济条件无法养它。天气好的时候,爸爸把小狗送收容所了,Doris Lacey很伤心,但没想到后来爸爸又带着小狗回来了。
【详解】1. 段落续写:
由续写第一段首句内容“然而,第二天早上阳光明媚。”可知,第一段可以描写爸爸要把小狗送走了,Doris虽然不舍但也没办法留下它,只能独自伤心。
由续写第二段首句内容“当天下午晚些时候,Lacey先生带着同一只狗回来了。”可知,第二段可以描写爸爸带小狗回来后Doris的惊喜,以及爸爸解释没把小狗留在收容所的原因。
2. 续写线索:天气转晴——Doris因无法留下小狗而努力压抑自己的情绪——爸爸开车带小狗离开——Doris终于忍不住哭了起来——爸爸带着小狗回来——爸爸解释了原因——Doris感到惊喜
3. 词汇激活:
行为类
①除了做……外无能为力:could do nothing but do…/couldn’t do anything but do…
②搜寻:search for/in search of
③把……带走:take away/send away
④击倒:knock down/knock over
情绪类
①沮丧:depression/frustration/gloom
②兴奋地:excitedly/in excitement/thrilledly
【点睛】【高分句型1】Her face was wet and red, her eyes full of depression.(使用了“名词+形容词短语”独立主格结构)
【高分句型2】Hearing the car travel down the road, she could do nothing but cry herself to sleep, and her dreams were full of searching and searching for things lost.(使用了现在分词短语作时间状语、省略不定式符号to的结构could do nothing but do和动名词作宾语)
