二、阅读理解
(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)Imagine travelling around in space and time: visiting ancient Egypt, walking on the moon, and riding a flying dinosaur(恐龙). Mary Pope Osborne brought that to life in Magic Tree House, a widely loved series about Jack and Annie. Jack and Annie discover a tree house where there are many books and they take them to different places and times in imagination.
The first Magic Tree House book was published(出版) in 1992. There are now more than 100 books in the series, with the latest coming out this month. But it took Osborne a while to work out what her passion(酷爱) was. Once she finally realised that writing was her true love, she started off at once
When Osborne began writing, she would leave the house with her notebook and go to libraries, cafes or parks, where she could draw inspiration(灵感) from the surroundings. She could write as long as she was away from home, and she kept that habit for the first 15 years of the series.
If Osborne was really excited about something, she might get up at 5:30 a.m. to write with great joy. Some other writers suffer from self-doubt and writer’s block, but she never had those things. In her eyes, every word she put on paper was a prize. Although 80% of what she produced failed to see the light of day, she never felt regretful or angry. She just worked hard to perfect her stories.
Osborne keeps so many notebooks with simple words in them—words that come alive for her. She’d take notecards in her bag, walk all over New York City and stop to write notes about things that caught her attention and words she liked. She called them “living words”: words of the senses, the weather, the light...
24.(2.5分)What do we know about the tree house?
A.It was made by Jack and Annie. B.It was found in ancient Egypt.
C.It serves as a home for dinosaurs. D.It houses a large number of books.
25.(2.5分)What was Osborne’s journey of finding her passion like?
A.She gave up many hobbies before choosing to write.
B.She decided to be a writer because of others’ encouragement.
C.She spent some time finding out what she really wanted to do.
D.She knew writing was her true love as soon as she started working.
26.(2.5分)What can be learned from paragraph 4?
A.Osborne’s tasks. B.Osborne’s writing style.
C.How Osborne treated writing. D.How Osborne influenced others.
27.(2.5分)Which of the following words can best describe Osborne?
A.Curious and positive. B.Honest and brave.
C.Fair and responsible. D.Humorous and helpful.
(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.

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)阅读下面材料根据其内容和所给及落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Mary, I hate to call Rob in the mornings. He’s growing so fast and he needs his sleep. If you could see how sound he sleeps when I go to wake him up! I wish I could manage alone. ”
“Well, you can’t, Adam.” His mother’s voice was quick and light. “Besides, he isn’t a child any more. It’s time he took his turn. ”
“Yes, ” his father said slowly, “But I sure do hate to wake him. ”
A few days before Christmas that year when he was fifteen, Rob heard these words and something in him spoke: his father loved him! He had never thought of that before, for neither his father nor his mother talked about loving their children -- they had no time for such things. There was always so much to do on the farm.
They were poor, and most of the excitement for Christmas was in the turkey and the pies his mother made. His sisters sewed presents and his mother and father always bought him something he needed, not only a warm jacket, maybe, but something more, such as a book. And he saved and bought them each something, too.
He had gone to the ten-cent store and bought a tie as usual. It had seemed nice enough until he lay thinking the night before Christmas. He wished that he had a better present for his father.
A thought struck him like a silver lightning. Why should he not give his father a special gift in the barn(牛棚)? He could get up early, earlier than four o’clock and he could move quietly and slowly into the barn and get all the milking done. He’d do it alone, milk and clean up, and then when his father went in to start the milking, he’d see it all done. He laughed to himself as he gazed at the stars, it was what he would do, and he mustn’t sleep too sound.
注意∶
1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段, 每段的开头语已为你写好。
At a quarter to three, he got up and put on his clothes.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Back in his room, he had only a minute to pull off his clothes in the darkness and jumped into bed, for he heard his father up.

(本题10分)Imagine travelling around in space and time: visiting ancient Egypt, walking on the moon, and riding a flying dinosaur(恐龙). Mary Pope Osborne brought that to life in Magic Tree House, a widely loved series about Jack and Annie. Jack and Annie discover a tree house where there are many books and they take them to different places and times in imagination.
The first Magic Tree House book was published(出版) in 1992. There are now more than 100 books in the series, with the latest coming out this month. But it took Osborne a while to work out what her passion(酷爱) was. Once she finally realised that writing was her true love, she started off at once
When Osborne began writing, she would leave the house with her notebook and go to libraries, cafes or parks, where she could draw inspiration(灵感) from the surroundings. She could write as long as she was away from home, and she kept that habit for the first 15 years of the series.
If Osborne was really excited about something, she might get up at 5:30 a.m. to write with great joy. Some other writers suffer from self-doubt and writer’s block, but she never had those things. In her eyes, every word she put on paper was a prize. Although 80% of what she produced failed to see the light of day, she never felt regretful or angry. She just worked hard to perfect her stories.
Osborne keeps so many notebooks with simple words in them—words that come alive for her. She’d take notecards in her bag, walk all over New York City and stop to write notes about things that caught her attention and words she liked. She called them “living words”: words of the senses, the weather, the light...

(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.

(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.

六、书面表达
67.(本题25分)阅读下面材料根据其内容和所给及落开头语续写两段, 使之构成一篇完整的短文。
“Mary, I hate to call Rob in the mornings. He’s growing so fast and he needs his sleep. If you could see how sound he sleeps when I go to wake him up! I wish I could manage alone. ”
“Well, you can’t, Adam.” His mother’s voice was quick and light. “Besides, he isn’t a child any more. It’s time he took his turn. ”
“Yes, ” his father said slowly, “But I sure do hate to wake him. ”
A few days before Christmas that year when he was fifteen, Rob heard these words and something in him spoke: his father loved him! He had never thought of that before, for neither his father nor his mother talked about loving their children -- they had no time for such things. There was always so much to do on the farm.
They were poor, and most of the excitement for Christmas was in the turkey and the pies his mother made. His sisters sewed presents and his mother and father always bought him something he needed, not only a warm jacket, maybe, but something more, such as a book. And he saved and bought them each something, too.
He had gone to the ten-cent store and bought a tie as usual. It had seemed nice enough until he lay thinking the night before Christmas. He wished that he had a better present for his father.
A thought struck him like a silver lightning. Why should he not give his father a special gift in the barn(牛棚)? He could get up early, earlier than four o’clock and he could move quietly and slowly into the barn and get all the milking done. He’d do it alone, milk and clean up, and then when his father went in to start the milking, he’d see it all done. He laughed to himself as he gazed at the stars, it was what he would do, and he mustn’t sleep too sound.

_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 At a quarter to three, he got up and put on his clothes. He crept downstairs carefully to avoid making a noise. With the help of the faint moonlight, he crossed the yard and entered the barn. The cows looked at him, sleepy and surprised. It was early for them, too. He had never milked all alone before, but the task went more easily than he had ever known it to go before. Milking for once was not a chore. It was something else, a gift to his father who loved him. After what seemed like one hour, the two milk cans were eventually full, and he covered them and closed the milkhouse door gently.
Back in his room, he had only a minute to pull off his clothes in the darkness and jumped into bed, for he heard his father up. His door was knocked and obviously his father came to wake him as usual. “Aw-right, ” he said sleepily. The sound of his father’s footsteps died away and he lay still, laughing to himself. Then ten minutes later, the door opened and in came his father, sitting by the bed, his father reached out for his shoulder with a smile on his weather-worn face. “Rob, thank you. Nobody ever did a nicer thing. ” He got up from the bed and hugged his father tightly. "It’s for Christmas, Dad!” They both were in love and happiness.
