The exhibition is the first to connect two historic sites through a photographic narrative. Beyond presenting the artistic appeal of the two representative royal sites, the exhibition invites visitors to consider how historical heritage can coexist with modern life. Location: The Palace of Prolonging Happiness (Yanxi Gong) in the Palace Museum Dates & Hours: •Jun. 1st, 2025 ~ Feb. 24th, 2026; 8:30 am ~ 5:00 pm (Last entry at 4:00 pm) •The Palace Museum is recommending both individual visitors and tourist groups to book tickets in advance online. Foreign visitors are required to provide passport numbers during the online booking. Ticketing Information: Apr. 1st ~ Oct. 31st, 60 yuan / person Nov. 1st ~ Mar. 31st, 40 yuan / person •Students between 7 and 18, as well as undergraduate students may purchase student tickets for 20 yuan per person with the use of a student ID card or letter of introduction from the school. •Children aged 6 and under may enjoy free admission. •On International Children’s Day, one accompanying parent of children under 14 years old is qualified for half-price admission. 21. What is the feature of this exhibition? A. A joint exhibition of cultural heritage. B. A comparison of architectural details. C. The largest photo exhibition ever held. D. Presentation of life in Prince Kung’s Palace. 22. Where is the exhibition held? A. A royal garden. B. A visual exhibition hall. C. Prince Kung’s Palace Museum. D. The Palace of Prolonging Happiness. 23. On Jun. 1st, how much should a couple with a 10-year-old child pay? A. 50 yuan. B. 80 yuan. C. 110 yuan. D. 140 yuan. 【答案】21. A 22. D 23. C 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍故宫博物院与恭王府博物馆联合举办的文化展览，详细说明了展览地点、展期、开放时间及各类门票收费标准。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段中的“The Palace Museum and Prince Kung’s Palace Museum jointly launched an exhibition titled “Flourishing Times, New Beginnings: A Visual Chronicle (编年史) from Cultural Heritage to Enriched Life” on Tuesday.(故宫博物院与恭王府博物馆于周二联合举办了名为《盛世新始：从文化遗产到美好生活视觉编年史》的展览。)” 可知，本次展览是两大文博单位联合开展的文化遗产主题展览。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中“Location: The Palace of Prolonging Happiness (Yanxi Gong) in the Palace Museum(展览地点：故宫博物院延禧宫)”可知，本次展览的举办地为故宫博物院的延禧宫。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Ticketing Information:部分中的“Apr. 1st~Oct. 31st, 60 yuan / person(4月1日至10月31日，票价每人60元)”以及“Students between 7 and 18, as well as undergraduate students may purchase student tickets for 20 yuan per person with the use of a student ID card or letter of introduction from the school.(7至18岁学生及本科生凭学生证或学校介绍信可购买每人20元的学生票。)”和“On International Children’s Day, one accompanying parent of children under 14 years old is qualified for half-price admission.(国际儿童节当天，14周岁以下儿童的一名陪同家长可享受门票半价优惠。)”可知，6月1日属于旺季，一对夫妻需两张成人票共120元，但儿童节这天14周岁以下儿童的一名陪同家长可享受门票半价优惠，所以两张成人票60/2+60=90元，10岁孩子可购学生票20元，总计110元。 B Mark Twain’s words strike a deep chord (心弦) with writers, “The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” This quote shows the tiring process of rewriting a novel. The first draft feels like an exciting first date — full of promise and relaxation. You finish with a broad smile, imagining readers applauding your brilliance. But that honeymoon period lasts only about 48 hours. Soon, the sinking feeling sets in as you revisit your draft, realizing the hard part has just begun. Rewriting is where real writers emerge. It’s time to dig deep, pulling out the tools and techniques you’ve gathered over the years. You revisit your favorite authors, hoping they’ll offer guidance for navigating the rocky road of revision. Rewriting demands you comb through each sentence, ensuring it contains the exact right word. Every character must earn its place in the story, and each chapter should contribute meaningfully to the narrative. Even your beloved pieces of dialogue may need to be cut. I learned this while working on my novel. The rewriting process haunted (萦绕) me, and I often questioned if the effort was worth it. One night, nearing 2 a.m. after an exhausting session, I thought about abandoning my work. That’s when I came across the film In Time, which highlighted my deepest fear: the time invested in my novel. At that moment, I struck a deal with myself. I decided to cease the self-criticism and recapture the joy that fueled my writing. I committed to evaluating my work page by page, asking, “Do I love it?” If not, I replaced it. Here’s my advice: reawaken your passion and examine your work one page at a time. Writing is a journey, and the rewriting period bridges inspiration and a satisfying finished product. Remember, the “right word” is the key to excellence. 24. What do Mark Twain’s words imply? A. Revising is a rocky road. B. Readers’ feeling matters. C. Quoting precisely is a must. D. The first draft rarely falls short. 25. What does the author think of rewriting? A. Time-wasting. B. Labor-saving. C. Heartbreaking. D. Painstaking. 26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Which word should be highlighted. B. Why the writing process is questioned. C. What the film In Time talks about. D. How the passion for rewriting is fueled. 27. What does the author’s advice show? A. The role of inspiration in writing. B. The importance of proper wording. C. The reason for making rewriting unique. D. The journey to creating an excellent product. 【答案】24. A 25. D 26. D 27. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了修改在写作中的重要性，讲述了修改的艰辛以及作者重新找回写作热情的经历。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” This quote shows the tiring process of rewriting a novel. (“准确的词和几乎准确的词之间的区别就是闪电和萤火虫之间的区别。”这句话说明了改写小说的累人过程。)”以及第二段“You revisit your favorite authors, hoping they’ll offer guidance for navigating the rocky road of revision. (你重温你最喜欢的作家，希望他们能为你在艰难的修订之路上提供指导)”可知，马克·吐温的话暗示修改是一条艰难的路。故选A项。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“This quote shows the tiring process of rewriting a novel. (这句话说明了改写小说的累人过程。)”和第三段“Rewriting demands you comb through each sentence, ensuring it contains the exact right word. (改写要求你仔细梳理每一句话，确保用词精准无误。)”可知，作者认为改写是辛苦且细致的。故选D项。 【26题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“I decided to cease the self-criticism and recapture the joy that fueled my writing. (我决定停止自我批评，重新找回激发我写作的乐趣。)”以及段落内容可知，本段主要讲述作者如何重新找回写作与修改的热情。故选D项。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Remember, the “right word” is the key to excellence. (记住，“准确的用词”是优秀作品的关键。)”可知，作者的建议表明了恰当用词的重要性。故选B项。 C Nearly 30% of U. S. children have a diagnosed allergy (过敏), suffering from symptoms such as hives, sneezing, or even life-threatening anaphylaxis. Large studies have confirmed that introducing potential food allergens within the first year of life significantly minimizes the danger of developing allergies later. A decade ago, doctors recommended delaying common food allergens until after the first few years. This view changed in 2015 when the LEAP study provided strong evidence that introducing peanuts to infants (婴儿) around four months old can lower peanut allergy risk by up to 80%. Follow-up studies on eggs, cow’s milk, and multiple common allergens showed similar benefits. Today, experts strongly recommend early introduction. Priya Katari, a pediatric allergist, suggests introducing all common allergens — egg, milk, soy, wheat, peanut, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, and sesame — at four to six months of age, when the child can sit upright and swallow safely without choking. This recommendation applies to most children, including those with a family history of allergies. However, there are two exceptions: children with severe eczema should be tested for allergies before food introduction, and children with a known egg allergy should be tested especially before trying peanut butter. Otherwise, serious reactions after first exposure are rare in infants under one year, though possible. Parents can start with a tiny amount, such as a quarter-teaspoon of thinned peanut butter, monitor for ten minutes, and then offer a full serving of two teaspoons. Once introduced, the allergen must remain in the child’s diet regularly. Peanut currently has specific guidelines: two teaspoons three times a week. Experts agree that just a taste may not build tolerance; taking them at a regular basis is essential. Parents need not worry about exact amounts but should ensure a varied diet including fruits, vegetables, and protein. As Martha Hartz from Mayo Clinic advises, “Whenever you introduce solid food, go ahead and introduce whatever your family eats.” 28. What can be inferred about the LEAP study? A. It suggested delaying all allergens. B. It focused mainly on eggs and milk. C. It overturned previous medical advice. D. It was the first study on food allergies. 29. Which group needs allergy tests before food introduction? A. Children with family allergy history. B. Children already exposed to peanuts. C. Children who can sit upright and swallow. D. Children with severe eczema or egg allergy. 30. What do experts suggest about maintaining tolerance? A. Regular exposure is vital. B. Exact amounts matter most. C. A single taste is enough for life. D. Peanut butter should be avoided. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Infants should avoid peanuts until age three. B. Early introduction reduces the risks of allergies. C. Delaying allergens until after the first year is advised. D. Allergy tests are required for children before solid foods. 【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B 【解析】 【导语】文章主要说明了研究证实婴儿一岁内尽早接触各类致敏食物可大幅降低过敏风险。文中介绍适用人群、特殊检测要求，强调持续定期摄入致敏食物才能建立耐受。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A decade ago, doctors recommended delaying common food allergens until after the first few years. This view changed in 2015 when the LEAP study provided strong evidence that introducing peanuts to infants (幼儿) around four months old can lower peanut allergy risk by up to 80%.(十年前，医生建议推迟常见食物过敏原的引入，等到孩子出生头几年过后再食用。但这一观点在2015年发生了改变，LEAP研究提供了有力证据：在婴儿约四个月大时开始接触花生，可使花生过敏风险降低高达80%)”可知，LEAP研究推翻了以往的医学建议。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“However, there are two exceptions: children with severe eczema should be tested for allergies before food introduction, and children with a known egg allergy should be tested especially before trying peanut butter.(不过，有两个例外情况：患有严重湿疹的儿童在引入食物前应进行过敏测试，而已知对鸡蛋过敏的儿童在尝试花生酱之前尤其需要先做过敏测试)”可知，严重湿疹或鸡蛋过敏的儿童在引入食物前需要进行过敏测试。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Once introduced, the allergen must remain in the child’s diet regularly. Peanut currently has specific guidelines: two teaspoons three times a week. Experts agree that just a taste may not build tolerance; taking them at a regular basis is essential.(一旦引入，过敏原必须持续定期出现在孩子的饮食中。目前对花生有具体建议：每周三次，每次两茶匙。专家一致认为，仅靠一次尝试可能无法建立耐受性，坚持规律摄入)”可知，专家们建议定期暴露维持耐受性至关重要。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“Nearly 30% of U. S. children have a diagnosed allergy (过敏), suffering from symptoms such as hives, sneezing, or even life-threatening anaphylaxis. Large studies have confirmed that introducing potential food allergens within the first year of life significantly minimizes the danger of developing allergies later.(近30%的美国儿童被诊断出患有过敏，出现荨麻疹、打喷嚏甚至危及生命的过敏性休克等症状。大量研究证实，在出生后的第一年内接触潜在的食物过敏原，能显著降低日后患过敏的风险)”结合文章主要说明了研究证实婴儿一岁内尽早接触各类致敏食物可大幅降低过敏风险，强调持续定期摄入致敏食物才能建立耐受可知，文章主旨是早期引入可降低过敏风险。 D The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical — but it’s a real ability that some creatures have. A family of African fish known as Mormyrids are weakly electric, and have special organs that can locate a nearby target, even when it’s hiding in the mud. Scientists have now developed an artificial sensor system modelled on the ability of these fish. “We developed a new strategy for 3D motion positioning by electronic skin, bio-inspired by ‘electric fish’,” says Dr. Xinge Yu, an associate professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the City University of Hong Kong. The team described their e-skin sensor in a paper published on November 14 in Nature. The artificial sensor is multi-layered. One layer acts as a transmitter (发射器), which will generate an electric field once activated, and another layer acts as a receiver to detect both the direction and the distance to an object. A separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter. When an object comes within range, the electric field around the sensor is disrupted (扰乱), which in turn can be detected by the receiver. This data is then processed by a microcontroller unit, which computes the position of the target object and sends that information to a smartphone or other devices. A special biogel (生物凝胶) is used in the sensor, which has the ability to transmit and receive electric signals from a pattern of microchannels on the surface. The end result is a sensor that is thin, soft and flexible, making it cosy to adapt to irregular surfaces, such as the human body. In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning, the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors. This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection, transmission, and processing. The researchers hope that this sensor could one day open up a new range of wearable technologies, including sensors for human-machine interaction and thin, flexible e-skin. 32. The first paragraph aims to show __________. A. the special ability of African fish B. the inspiration for a new invention C. the big challenge of locating objects D. the reason for developing a sensor 33. What is the correct order of the system’s working procedures? a. The transmitter creates an electric field. b. A unit computes the position of the target. c. The controller sends the activating signal. d. The receiver detects the change of electric signals. e. The electric field is disrupted by an approaching object. A. c-a-e-d-b. B. c-a-d-e-b. C. a-c-e-d-b. D. a-e-c-d-b. 34. What is an advantage of the new sensor system? A. Its sensitivity to different stimulations. B. Its adaptation to environmental changes. C. Its efficiency in achieving 3D positioning. D. Its speed in data collection and processing. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Machine Detective “Wears” Flexible E-skin B. Bio-inspired Sensor “Feels” Without Touching C. E-Skin Sensor: The Future of Machine Learning D. Electric Fields: The Frontier of Object Detection 【答案】32. B 33. A 34. C 35. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一种仿生传感器，灵感来自一种鱼类，无需触摸即可感知物体的位置。 【32题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“A family of African fish known as Mormyrids are weakly electric, and have special organs that can locate a nearby target, even when it’s hiding in the mud.

A separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter. When an object comes within range, the electric field around the sensor is disrupted (扰乱), which in turn can be detected by the receiver. This data is then processed by a microcontroller unit, which computes the position of the target object and sends that information to a smartphone or other devices. (人工传感器是多层的。一层充当发射器，一旦激活就会产生电场，另一层充当接收器，检测物体的方向和距离。一个单独的控制器产生驱动信号来激活发射器。当物体进入范围内时，传感器周围的电场会被扰乱，这反过来又可以被接收器检测到。然后，微控制器单元处理这些数据，计算目标物体的位置，并将该信息发送到智能手机或其他设备)”可知，工作过程是控制器发送激活信号，发射器产生电场，电场被接近的物体扰乱，接收器检测电信号的变化，一个微控制器单元计算目标的位置，结合选项可知，系统工作程序的正确顺序是“c-a-e-d-b”。故选A项。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning, the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors.

But what about defensive walking and cycling? They are equally crucial for pedestrian (行人) and cyclist safety. It means paying attention to your surroundings and having a constant awareness of the environment. ____36____ With thousands of pedestrians and cyclists killed annually in traffic crashes, being alert to hidden danger of traffic is a key part of preventing accidents. Here are the essential do’s and don’ts. Do’s: Look left, right and behind you. Oftentimes the greatest dangers if you’re a pedestrian trying to cross the crossroads are actually coming from behind you. ____37____ A driver turning into the crossroads might not see you in the crosswalk because they’re focused on oncoming traffic. ____38____ Most pedestrian deaths occur after dark. Always use sidewalks or walking paths. Cyclists should use white front lights and red rear lights at night. Even with the right of way, try to make eye contact with drivers or look for signs that they see you, like slowing down. Don’ts: Don’t be distracted while biking or walking, especially while crossing the road. ____39____ You need to hear the sounds of traffic and see what’s happening around you to stay safe and cross the road smoothly. Don’t put yourself in danger just because you have the right of way. While drivers are responsible for driving safely, road safety is everyone’s responsibility. Decades of data show that expecting people to always act the right way on the road does not work. ____40____ A. Make yourself visible and predictable. B. Be aware of the danger of hanging out at night. C. In this way, you can anticipate potential danger. D. Avoid listening to music or looking at your phone. E. So always look in all directions and turn around before walking forward. F. Taking ownership of your safety helps create a safe system that protects everyone. G. Your own safety is actually determined by the rights to choose whatever directions you can. 【答案】36. C 37. E 38. A 39. D 40.

Even in middle school I would stay up very late. I would feel completely at ease doing my homework in bed, with light music on. I found comfort in keeping myself awake when everyone else had gone to bed, and I loved the silence of the night. My parents urged me to get out of this so-called unhealthy habit, but their repeated requests fell on deaf ears. Fast forward to my first year of college. I still loved the night and would stay up until unruly hours for no apparent reason, chatting online and watching videos. When I finally started to study, I would race through the assigned work, often well past midnight. My roommates would tell me to go to bed and get up early the following morning to do it instead. Get up early to do my homework? No way! I would never do that. Then, one day last term, I did exactly that. Bent over my laptop while sitting on the bed in the corner of my room, I suddenly felt a pounding headache, and had to lie down. Unable to keep my eyes open, I decided I had no choice but to finish my homework the next morning. I woke up at 6am. Hardly had I written half a page when I felt a sharp pain in my chest. At the school clinic, a doctor, with a serious expression on his face, handed me a medical report. “You’re 20, but your heart is 40!” he said. A cold wave went through me. I realized that years of living as a late-night person had turned my heart into an overworked engine. 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。 Struck by the doctor’s warning, I knew I had to make a change. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Slowly but surely, my efforts to adjust to the new routine paid off. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Struck by the doctor’s warning, I knew I had to make a change. That very night, I initiated my battle against my deep-rooted habits. I forcibly switched off my laptop and phone at 10 p.m., placing them completely out of reach. However, my rebellious biological clock refused to cooperate. I tossed and turned in the darkness, the silence of the room amplifying my anxiety. The urge to grab my phone and drown in videos was overwhelmingly tempting. Just as my willpower was about to crumble, the doctor's stern voice and that terrifying sharp pain in my chest echoed in my mind, anchoring me back to reality. I squeezed my eyes shut, practicing deep breathing until exhaustion finally claimed me. Slowly but surely, my efforts to adjust to the new routine paid off. The mornings, which used to be my greatest enemy, gradually transformed into a welcoming friend. Instead of racing through assignments with a foggy brain at midnight, I found myself tackling them with a clear and focused mind in the golden sunlight. Not only did the heavy burden on my chest vanish, but an unprecedented sense of vitality also flowed through my veins. When I proudly showed my parents my improved medical report during the holiday, their relieved smiles were my best reward. I finally realized that true comfort isn't found in the unruly hours of the night, but in the vibrant rhythm of a disciplined life. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索，讲述了作者长期熬夜导致心脏出现问题，医生警告后作者决定改变作息习惯，最终成功调整并恢复健康的故事。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句提示可知，本段应描述作者开始改变熬夜习惯的具体行动和遇到的困难。 ②由第二段首句提示可知，本段应描述改变带来的积极效果和作者的感悟。 2. 续写线索： 决定改变——晚上强制关机——失眠挣扎——坚持——努力得到了回报——得到父母认可——感悟 3. 词汇激活： 行为类： 关掉：switch off/turn off/shut off 处理: tackle/handle/deal with 消失：vanish/fade away 情绪类： 令人恐惧的：terrifying/hair-raising/horrifying 自豪地：proudly/with pride 欣慰的：relieved/gratified 【点睛】【高分句型1】Just as my willpower was about to crumble, the doctor's stern voice and that terrifying sharp pain in my chest echoed in my mind, anchoring me back to reality.（运用了as引导的时间状语从句和现在分词短语作状语） 【高分句型2】Not only did the heavy burden on my chest vanish, but an unprecedented sense of vitality also flowed through my veins.（运用了部分倒装句） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 钟祥一中2027届高三年级八月检测 英 语 试 题 本试卷共8页，全卷满分150分，考试用时120分钟。 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5） 听下面5段录音。每段录音后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段录音后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段录音播放两遍。 1. 【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 Why is Rose going downtown?

B Mark Twain’s words strike a deep chord (心弦) with writers, “The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and a lightning bug.” This quote shows the tiring process of rewriting a novel. The first draft feels like an exciting first date — full of promise and relaxation. You finish with a broad smile, imagining readers applauding your brilliance. But that honeymoon period lasts only about 48 hours. Soon, the sinking feeling sets in as you revisit your draft, realizing the hard part has just begun. Rewriting is where real writers emerge. It’s time to dig deep, pulling out the tools and techniques you’ve gathered over the years. You revisit your favorite authors, hoping they’ll offer guidance for navigating the rocky road of revision. Rewriting demands you comb through each sentence, ensuring it contains the exact right word. Every character must earn its place in the story, and each chapter should contribute meaningfully to the narrative. Even your beloved pieces of dialogue may need to be cut. I learned this while working on my novel. The rewriting process haunted (萦绕) me, and I often questioned if the effort was worth it. One night, nearing 2 a.m. after an exhausting session, I thought about abandoning my work. That’s when I came across the film In Time, which highlighted my deepest fear: the time invested in my novel. At that moment, I struck a deal with myself. I decided to cease the self-criticism and recapture the joy that fueled my writing. I committed to evaluating my work page by page, asking, “Do I love it?” If not, I replaced it. Here’s my advice: reawaken your passion and examine your work one page at a time. Writing is a journey, and the rewriting period bridges inspiration and a satisfying finished product. Remember, the “right word” is the key to excellence. 24. What do Mark Twain’s words imply? A. Revising is a rocky road. B. Readers’ feeling matters. C. Quoting precisely is a must. D. The first draft rarely falls short. 25. What does the author think of rewriting? A. Time-wasting. B. Labor-saving. C. Heartbreaking. D. Painstaking. 26. What is paragraph 4 mainly about? A. Which word should be highlighted. B. Why the writing process is questioned. C. What the film In Time talks about. D. How the passion for rewriting is fueled. 27. What does the author’s advice show? A. The role of inspiration in writing. B. The importance of proper wording. C. The reason for making rewriting unique. D. The journey to creating an excellent product. C Nearly 30% of U. S. children have a diagnosed allergy (过敏), suffering from symptoms such as hives, sneezing, or even life-threatening anaphylaxis. Large studies have confirmed that introducing potential food allergens within the first year of life significantly minimizes the danger of developing allergies later. A decade ago, doctors recommended delaying common food allergens until after the first few years. This view changed in 2015 when the LEAP study provided strong evidence that introducing peanuts to infants (婴儿) around four months old can lower peanut allergy risk by up to 80%. Follow-up studies on eggs, cow’s milk, and multiple common allergens showed similar benefits. Today, experts strongly recommend early introduction. Priya Katari, a pediatric allergist, suggests introducing all common allergens — egg, milk, soy, wheat, peanut, tree nuts, fish, shellfish, and sesame — at four to six months of age, when the child can sit upright and swallow safely without choking. This recommendation applies to most children, including those with a family history of allergies. However, there are two exceptions: children with severe eczema should be tested for allergies before food introduction, and children with a known egg allergy should be tested especially before trying peanut butter. Otherwise, serious reactions after first exposure are rare in infants under one year, though possible. Parents can start with a tiny amount, such as a quarter-teaspoon of thinned peanut butter, monitor for ten minutes, and then offer a full serving of two teaspoons. Once introduced, the allergen must remain in the child’s diet regularly. Peanut currently has specific guidelines: two teaspoons three times a week. Experts agree that just a taste may not build tolerance; taking them at a regular basis is essential. Parents need not worry about exact amounts but should ensure a varied diet including fruits, vegetables, and protein. As Martha Hartz from Mayo Clinic advises, “Whenever you introduce solid food, go ahead and introduce whatever your family eats.” 28. What can be inferred about the LEAP study? A. It suggested delaying all allergens. B. It focused mainly on eggs and milk. C. It overturned previous medical advice. D. It was the first study on food allergies. 29. Which group needs allergy tests before food introduction? A. Children with family allergy history. B. Children already exposed to peanuts. C. Children who can sit upright and swallow. D. Children with severe eczema or egg allergy. 30. What do experts suggest about maintaining tolerance? A. Regular exposure is vital. B. Exact amounts matter most. C. A single taste is enough for life. D. Peanut butter should be avoided. 31. What does the text mainly talk about? A. Infants should avoid peanuts until age three. B. Early introduction reduces the risks of allergies. C. Delaying allergens until after the first year is advised. D. Allergy tests are required for children before solid foods. D The ability to detect a nearby presence without seeing or touching it may sound fantastical — but it’s a real ability that some creatures have. A family of African fish known as Mormyrids are weakly electric, and have special organs that can locate a nearby target, even when it’s hiding in the mud. Scientists have now developed an artificial sensor system modelled on the ability of these fish. “We developed a new strategy for 3D motion positioning by electronic skin, bio-inspired by ‘electric fish’,” says Dr. Xinge Yu, an associate professor in the Department of Biomedical Engineering at the City University of Hong Kong. The team described their e-skin sensor in a paper published on November 14 in Nature. The artificial sensor is multi-layered. One layer acts as a transmitter (发射器), which will generate an electric field once activated, and another layer acts as a receiver to detect both the direction and the distance to an object. A separate controller creates the driving signal to activate the transmitter. When an object comes within range, the electric field around the sensor is disrupted (扰乱), which in turn can be detected by the receiver. This data is then processed by a microcontroller unit, which computes the position of the target object and sends that information to a smartphone or other devices. A special biogel (生物凝胶) is used in the sensor, which has the ability to transmit and receive electric signals from a pattern of microchannels on the surface. The end result is a sensor that is thin, soft and flexible, making it cosy to adapt to irregular surfaces, such as the human body. In contrast to the traditional sensor system that needs a large number of sensors to achieve spatial positioning, the new system can locate an object precisely in 3D space using just a few sensors. This significantly reduces the power consumption of data collection, transmission, and processing. The researchers hope that this sensor could one day open up a new range of wearable technologies, including sensors for human-machine interaction and thin, flexible e-skin. 32. The first paragraph aims to show __________. A. the special ability of African fish B. the inspiration for a new invention C. the big challenge of locating objects D. the reason for developing a sensor 33. What is the correct order of the system’s working procedures? a. The transmitter creates an electric field. b. A unit computes the position of the target. c. The controller sends the activating signal. d. The receiver detects the change of electric signals. e. The electric field is disrupted by an approaching object. A. c-a-e-d-b. B. c-a-d-e-b. C. a-c-e-d-b. D. a-e-c-d-b. 34. What is an advantage of the new sensor system? A. Its sensitivity to different stimulations. B. Its adaptation to environmental changes. C. Its efficiency in achieving 3D positioning. D. Its speed in data collection and processing. 35. What is the best title for the text? A. Machine Detective “Wears” Flexible E-skin B. Bio-inspired Sensor “Feels” Without Touching C. E-Skin Sensor: The Future of Machine Learning D. Electric Fields: The Frontier of Object Detection 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Defensive Walking and Cycling: Key Tips for Safety You’ve heard of defensive driving, or driving practices to help you stay safe on the road. But what about defensive walking and cycling? They are equally crucial for pedestrian (行人) and cyclist safety. It means paying attention to your surroundings and having a constant awareness of the environment. ____36____ With thousands of pedestrians and cyclists killed annually in traffic crashes, being alert to hidden danger of traffic is a key part of preventing accidents. Here are the essential do’s and don’ts. Do’s: Look left, right and behind you. Oftentimes the greatest dangers if you’re a pedestrian trying to cross the crossroads are actually coming from behind you. ____37____ A driver turning into the crossroads might not see you in the crosswalk because they’re focused on oncoming traffic. ____38____ Most pedestrian deaths occur after dark. Always use sidewalks or walking paths. Cyclists should use white front lights and red rear lights at night. Even with the right of way, try to make eye contact with drivers or look for signs that they see you, like slowing down. Don’ts: Don’t be distracted while biking or walking, especially while crossing the road. ____39____ You need to hear the sounds of traffic and see what’s happening around you to stay safe and cross the road smoothly. Don’t put yourself in danger just because you have the right of way. While drivers are responsible for driving safely, road safety is everyone’s responsibility. Decades of data show that expecting people to always act the right way on the road does not work. ____40____ A. Make yourself visible and predictable. B. Be aware of the danger of hanging out at night. C. In this way, you can anticipate potential danger. D. Avoid listening to music or looking at your phone. E. So always look in all directions and turn around before walking forward. F. Taking ownership of your safety helps create a safe system that protects everyone. G. Your own safety is actually determined by the rights to choose whatever directions you can. 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 I didn’t start by falling in love with programming.

His affection for birds led him ____56____ (establish) Wild Beijing, a website dedicated to celebrating the capital city’s wildlife ____57____ connecting more people to nature. Initially, ____58____ (function) as a birding blog, the website grew into an ode (颂歌) to urban biodiversity. He says, “It’s the capital of a country with 1.4 billion people, yet it’s full of wildlife. That’s pretty incredible.” The Beijing swift (雨燕), for instance, nests in the city’s ancient ____59____ (courtyard) and gateways. Recent tracking studies revealed they fly all the way to southern Africa and back, a journey ____60____ any landing — meaning the birds eat, drink and sleep while flying for months. “These aren’t just birds,” he says. “They’re stories of endurance and interconnection.” He noted the migratory birds are a shared natural heritage beyond nationalities and cultures. The swifts ____61____ nest in Beijing’s Summer Palace may winter in Botswana. “If we could do that for more species, imagine Beijingers meeting with communities in Africa who host ____62____ (they) swifts; it would build such a sense of shared responsibility.” ____63____ (encourage) by the rise of local organizations and youth involvement, Townsend is happy that many young people are becoming ___64___ (enthusiasm) about environmental protection.
