B In Chengdu, China, an elevated walkway winds through thick bamboo forest, overlooking a sunken football field. Surrounding this scene is West Village, a multi-level complex of streets, studios, restaurants, and more. This innovative urban landscape is the creation of architect Liu Jiakun, recipient of the Pritzker Architecture Prize. His work, deeply rooted in local culture and context, has transformed urban spaces in China. Liu Jiakun, born in 1956, is only the second Chinese architect to receive the Pritzker Architecture Prize. His work, mostly concentrated in Sichuan Province, ranges from museums to public spaces. Unlike many contemporary architects, Liu’s designs avoid complexity, focusing instead on creating meaningful backdrops for everyday life. “I became an architect by accident,” Liu says. After a brief period at a state-run design institute, he spent a decade in Xizang and Xinjiang, exploring writing and painting. His novel, Bright Moonlight Plan, described an architect’s struggle to build an ideal town. Liu believes architecture and literature share a deep connection, both requiring patience and attention to human behavior. Returning to architecture in middle age, Liu gained national attention after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. He created “rebirth bricks” using local broken bricks, wheat fiber, and concrete, a poetic metaphor for material and spiritual rebirth. These bricks became a signature in his work, notably at the Shuijingfang Museum, an extension to a historic factory in Chengdu. Completed in 2013, the museum combined grey bricks with bamboo-imprinted concrete, creating a unique human touch. West Village, completed in 2015, is Liu’s most ambitious project. Covering an entire city block, it integrates sports facilities, restaurants, galleries, and more. Liu describes it as a “big Sichuan hotpot,” combining every aspect of city life. Despite initial challenges, the complex has gradually come to life, showcasing Liu’s vision of an urban utopia (乌托邦). Liu’s philosophy is to be like water, permeating (渗透) through a place without a fixed form. His architecture aims to integrate into the local environment, solidifying over time into structures that preserve the essence of their surroundings. 24. What sets Liu Jiakun’s architectural work apart? A. A unique location. B. Natural surroundings. C. Elegantly framed structures. D. A culturally rooted design. 25. How does Liu’s literature background influence his architecture? A. It changes an old bond. B. It brings a human touch. C. It lights local perception. D. It stresses social concerns. 26. Why did Liu’s design feature “rebirth bricks” after the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake? A. To lower expenses. B. To upgrade materials. C. To symbolize renewal. D. To pioneer a new design. 27. What does West Village illustrate about Liu Jiakun’s architectural philosophy? A. His vision of integrating rich urban life. B. His preference for isolated buildings. C. His reliance on reinvented materials. D. His disregard for community needs. C 热点话题 深度阅读 In an age of endless scrolling and bite-sized information, the practice of “deep reading” — the immersive (沉浸式的), focused engagement with a complex text — is facing an undeniable challenge. Nicholas Carr, in his famous work The Shallows, argues that the Internet is reshaping our brains, promoting quick scanning over sustained concentration. This shift, he warns, comes at a cost to our capacity for deep thought and comprehension. Neurological studies support this concern. When we read deeply, specific brain regions associated with language, memory, and perspective-taking show significant activity. It’s a slow, demanding process that builds rich mental models and fosters critical thinking. In contrast, the scattered (分散的), hyperlinked nature of online reading often keeps us at a surface level, training the brain for rapid decision-making about what to click next rather than for thoughtful analysis. However, it’s not all doom and gloom. The question isn’t necessarily about rejecting digital tools, but about cultivating a balanced “diet” of reading habits. Educational technologists point out that digital platforms can also support deep reading when used intentionally. Features like annotation (注释) tools, keyword searches, and access to vast online libraries can enhance understanding, provided we consciously resist the pull of distraction. The key lies in mindfulness. Just as we schedule time for physical exercise, we must intentionally carve out periods for uninterrupted reading. This might mean setting aside the smartphone and picking up a physical book, or using app blockers to create a distraction-free digital space for engaging with longer articles. The goal is to regain control over our attention, training our minds to settle into a text without the urge to constantly switch tasks. Ultimately, deep reading is not merely a skill for academics; it’s a vital exercise for the mind in a fragmented (支离破碎的) world. It strengthens our ability to think critically, empathize with others, and engage with complex ideas — capacities more crucial than ever in navigating the complexities of the 21st century. 28. What is the main concern raised in the first paragraph? A. The rising cost of deep thought. B. The negative influence of social media. C. The poor quality of online information. D. The decline of the deep reading ability. 29. What does the neurological research meutioned in paragraph 2 show? A. Different reading styles activate the brain differently. B. Online reading can improve all decision-making skills. C. Deep reading is a slow and effortless process. D. Hyperlinks are essential for building memory. 30. What does the underlined word “mindfulness” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A. The ability to remember details. B. The conscious practice of focusing. C. The technique of reading faster. D. The method of using digital tools. 31. What is the main purpose of the text? A. To introduce the latest digital reading platforms. B. To advocate the value and practice of deep reading. C. To criticize the shallowness of online information. D. To compare the effects of reading on paper and on screen. D Everyone relies on biases — otherwise known as cognitive (认知的) shortcuts — in their daily lives. For example, imagine you’ re scrolling through your social media feed and immediately dismiss a news article because it comes from a source you don’t typically trust. This scenario highlights how automatic and unconscious the mental process can be. These biases aren’t character flaws. Thousands of years ago, this type of quick decision-making insured the safety of ancient humans. Although these mental shortcuts served us well long ago, they don’t always translate well to our complex modern world. For several decades, psychology researchers have been testing interventions to help people become aware of and minimize their biases. A new systematic review published in Nature Human Behaviour offers the most comprehensive analysis of bias training to date. Researchers combined results from 54 randomized controlled trials involving nearly 11,000 students to determine whether educational interventions can reduce cognitive biases. The studies used a wide range of approaches, including games, online simulations, classroom instruction, video-based training, and group discussions. The analysis found that these interventions led to a small but significant reduction in biased thinking. The most successful interventions from the studies focused on teaching specific cognitive strategies to neutralize (消除) particular biases. These strategies include actively seeking out contradictory evidence when evaluating a claim and using structured checklists to avoid jumping to conclusions. Interestingly, the research revealed that some biases are harder to avoid than others. For example, people are more likely to cling to stereotypes (成见), such as assuming that someone who wears glasses and reads a lot is a librarian. It remains unclear whether these lessons transfer beyond the classroom; just because someone can avoid confirmation biases in an online test doesn’t mean they will use those skills in the real world. Researchers said this gap between the laboratory performance and the real-world application represents the next frontier in bias research. This field is important because cognitive biases can have far-reaching consequences in modern society, influencing medical diagnoses, public policy decisions, elections, and more. The take-home message is that this review provides solid evidence that bias reduction is possible. 32. How did the bias help ancient humans? A. It helped strengthen the mental process. B. It helped make quick and safe decisions. C. It helped improve unconscious learning. D. It helped enhance social communication. 33. Which method is most effective for lessening specific biases? A. Having group discussions. B. Watching an instructional video. C. Thinking critically about an event. D. Conducting video-based experiments. 34. What remains a major challenge in bias research according to the text? A. The lack of research funding. B. The absence of effective tools. C. The gap between the lab and the reality. D. The unwillingness of participants. 35. Which is the best title for the text? A. Scientists Find New Ways to Train Our Brains B. Bias Training Proves Ineffective in a New Study C. Stereotypes Remain the Biggest Challenge for Society D. Evidence Grows That Cognitive Biases Can Be Reduced 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。 学用融合 高效工作方法 Do you sometimes feel like you have a lot to do but very little time to do it?

He turned to Jack with an expression that mixed friendship with friendly competition. “This history presentation,” Tim began, his voice carrying both excitement and challenge, “could really let us show what we’ re capable of. I’ve been thinking about it since Mrs. Robins finished explaining the assignment.” Jack carefully closed his history textbook, running his fingers along the cover thoughtfully. “It’s certainly an interesting project,” he agreed, his tone measured. “The opportunity to explore something meaningful and share it with the class. It feels more significant than our usual assignments.” Mrs. Robins asked the two of them to make a presentation about an article they had seen in the museum. A faint smile played on Tim’s lips. “I’ve already had some ideas brewing. I think I know exactly how to approach this to make it truly impressive.” He studied Jack’s face, trying to read his friend’s thoughts. “What about you? Have you decided on your strategy yet?” Jack returned the smile, though there was a mysterious look in his eyes. “I have some ideas, but I want to consider all my options carefully. There are different ways to approach something like this, and I want to choose the method that feels most authentic.” Tim leaned forward, his curiosity aroused. “But we have so much other work this weekend: math problems, that literature essay and the science reading. Whatever approach we choose, it needs to be efficient without compromising quality, don’t you think?” Jack simply nodded, thinking that efficiency did matter, but so did depth. He stood up, putting his backpack over one shoulder. “I’m looking forward to seeing what we both will come up with.” With that, he left the classroom. As Jack walked away, Tim felt the familiar stir of their academic competition mixed with genuine curiosity about his friend’s plans. The project represented more than just a grade; it was another chapter in their ongoing dialog about how to best engage with the world around them. 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。 Saturday came and Tim surfed online while Jack headed to the museum.

Last month, I joined a local volunteer group to clean up a nearby park. We picked up litter, sorted recyclables, and even planted some trees to improve the green space. It was hard, but seeing the park become cleaner was truly rewarding. Additionally, I worked in a community workshop to raise awareness about reducing plastic use and making eco-friendly choices in our daily life. These activities made me realize how small actions can make a big difference. I will do more in the future. How about your experiences? Yours, Li Hua 第二节 读后续写 参考范文 Saturday came and Tim surfed online while Jack headed to the museum. Tim, confined to his room, searched for information from the Internet, convinced that the breadth of research was the key to success. Jack, however, went straight to the museum to meet the artifacts in person. He observed the subtle textures on the artifacts patiently, absorbing the atmosphere and seeking to listen to the silent echoes of history. So profound was this encounter that, upon returning home, he was inspired to create a 3D-printed replica, determined to share not just data, but a tangible piece of that experience. When Jack delivered his presentation, students raised their heads, life coming to their eyes. He didn’t just talk; he invited everyone on a journey, describing how dust particles danced in the museum light around the very artifact. Tim listened, awestruck. Jack wasn’t an onlooker but a true participant, breathing new life into history. The thunderous applause was for this truly immersive encounter. In that moment, Tim understood Mrs. Robins’ deepest purpose: The proof of the pudding is in the eating. He realized that to truly engage with the world, one must taste it with all one’s senses and soul, and listen to and say “hi” to the “story” that every object holds. 附录 听力原文 Text 1（提前下车散步） M: Emma, just drop me here, please.

Text 10 (论文学创作与选书) Good morning, everyone. It’s a pleasure to speak with you today about literary creation and critical writing. I’d like to begin by reflecting on themes and subjects. (18) Interestingly, novels and essays often explore similar ideas — though it’s through clarity that we truly achieve depth in fiction. I’ve always been drawn to a wide range of genres, like poems and science fiction. (19) And it’s the minor novels that have left the most lasting impression on me. That leads me to share some thoughts on the future of fiction writing. I’m actually quite optimistic. Our country remains one of those rare places where people still buy a significant number of books — far more than in many other parts of the world. That makes this a marvelous environment for writers. The incredible volume, however, has also led to a sense of confusion among readers. With so many choices, the public often doesn’t know where to turn. (20) I’d like to suggest a few alternatives. We might return to the classics, explore current bestseller lists, or even build a personal library — one that we share with close friends. Each of these paths offers a way to find meaning and connection in the world of books. Thank you. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
