It’s my pleasure to present my thoughts on this special occasion. Today I want to talk about happiness in Grade Three. Some of my students think happiness means having no stress. Others believe that getting high scores is happiness. But I see it differently. To me, happiness is about feeling that you’re making progress and staying calm inside, even when things get busy. It’s about moving forward at a pace you can keep up with. But how can we find this happiness? First, keep things in perspective. Yes, test scores matter, but try to connect your daily efforts to bigger things — like building problem-solving skills. That way, exams become part of your growth, not the whole story. Next, don’t forget to plan your day with purpose. Don’t just fill it with study — make room for breaks too. Take a short walk or spend a few minutes on a hobby. These aren’t wasted moments but restart buttons for your brain. They keep you from burning out and help you stay focused. So dear students, I hope you’ll find my advice helpful and wish you progress every day. 第二部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。 A Parcel Locker — The Smarter Way to Receive Parcels What are parcel lockers? Parcel lockers, also called smart lockers or package lockers, are secure, automated (自动化的) storage units in centralized locations. They are revolutionizing how goods can be delivered and received. People can pick up a package from a locker at a time that suits them, in a convenient location near their residence or workplace. Why are they not widely used? Despite all their advantages, parcel lockers are still far from being widely adopted by online shoppers. Many consumers still tend to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don’t know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it. Why is EasyLocker different? EasyLocker is one of the most popular parcel locker services. Here are some of its key advantages. Advantages Details Security Parcels are safe in automated lockers. Opening time It’s available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Environmental protection Combined deliveries reduce traffic and your carbon footprint. Convenience Choose from over 250 locations islandwide. Privacy Your home address and contact details stay private from delivery staff. How to use EasyLocker? ●Select EasyLocker as your delivery option when ordering online. ●Wait for a notification (通知) that your parcel has arrived. ●Go to the chosen locker location. ●Enter the unique access code sent to your phone on the locker’s screen. ●Take your parcel and secure the locker door before you leave. EasyLocker isn’t just a delivery option — it’s the smarter way to receive parcels. No missed deliveries. No waiting around. No sacrifice of security or sustainability. With EasyLocker, receiving parcels becomes simpler and greener. 21. What keeps some shoppers from trying a parcel locker? A. Inconvenient locations. B. Environmental concerns. C. Inefficiency of delivery. D. Unawareness of its presence. 22. What makes EasyLocker convenient? A. It keeps parcels safe in automated lockers. B. It has over 250 pickup locations across the island. C. It offers a lower delivery fee for large packages. D. It delivers parcels directly to the user’s office. 23. Who are the target readers of the text? A. Locker producers. B. Delivery staff. C. Online purchasers. D. Potential investors. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了智能包裹柜EasyLocker，包括它的定义、尚未普及的原因、各项优势以及使用步骤。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Many consumers still tend to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don’t know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it. (许多消费者仍然倾向于把网购包裹直接寄到家而不使用包裹柜，仅仅是因为他们下网上订单时不知道这种投递选择，因此从未尝试过。)”可知，一些购物者没有尝试包裹柜是因为不知道有这个服务。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据文中表格Convenience部分“Choose from over 250 locations islandwide. (全岛有超过 250 个站点可供选择。)”可知，全岛250多个取件点是EasyLocker便利的体现。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Many consumers still tend to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers.(许多消费者仍然倾向于把网购包裹直接寄到家而不使用包裹柜。)”以及最后一段“EasyLocker isn’t just a delivery option — it’s the smarter way to receive parcels.(EasyLocker不只是一种投递选择 —— 它是收取包裹更明智的方式。)”可知，文中提到了许多消费者不使用包裹柜，还提到EasyLocker是收取包裹更明智的方式，由此可推断，这篇文章面向的读者是网购的消费者，也就是网上购物者。 B Zhang Hongjun once spent his days on noisy construction sites in Shanghai, far from his rural hometown in Fujian province. For over a decade, his life followed a common path: long hours of labor, low pay, and the loneliness of being a migrant worker in a vast city. He dreamed of a change but saw few opportunities back home. A visit became a turning point. Staying in his village, Zhang noticed something new. The roads were paved, internet access had reached the village and the local government was offering support to those willing to start businesses. The beautiful mountains and fresh air, once taken for granted, now seemed full of potential to him. An idea began to form: what if he could build a future here, not just make a living there? Using his savings and a small government allowance, Zhang took a daring step. He transformed his family’s old, empty house into a modern café, a place where city visitors could enjoy coffee while viewing the terraced fields (梯田). At first, neighbors were puzzled. “Who will come to the mountains for coffee?” they asked. Zhang persisted (坚持), learning about coffee beans and coffee-making skills online. Today, “Mountain Cloud Café” is more than a coffee shop. It’s a window for his village. Tourists come on weekends, and in his café they discover and buy local specialties like mountain tea and dried fruits. Zhang has hired two local women, providing them with steady income. More importantly, his success has sparked (引发) a conversation. A few other young people, who once thought leaving was the only option, are now asking, “Could I come back too?” “My dream isn’t huge,” Zhang says, looking at the lively scene outside. “I just want our home to prosper, so that our children love to stay here.” His journey paints a picture of modern rural China — one where returning wings bring new life. 24. Which of the following best describes Zhang’s early life as a migrant worker? A. Simple. B. Secure. C. Unsatisfying. D. Undisturbing. 25. Why did Zhang return and start his Café business? A. He failed in his job in Shanghai. B. He was in poor health in the city. C. He was invited by the local government. D. He found new changes and support in his village. 26. What can we learn about Mountain Cloud Café? A. It helps develop the village. B. It features special coffee beans. C. It is profitable and custom-made. D. It is popular from beginning to end. 27. What can be the most suitable title for the text? A. A New Trend of Village Tourism B. The Importance of Local Specialties C. From Migrant Worker to Café Owner D. Between the city and the village 【答案】24. C 25. D 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】文章讲述张宏军从上海务工的农民工回乡开办山间咖啡馆，带动乡村发展的完整故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“For over a decade, his life followed a common path: long hours of labor, low pay, and the loneliness of being a migrant worker in a vast city.(十多年来，他的人生走的是一条（外来务工群体）常见的道路：长时间的劳作、微薄的收入，以及在一座大城市里作为外来务工人员所经历的孤独)”可知，张宏军作为农民工的生活漫长、收入低、孤独，这体现的是“令人不满意”。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The roads were paved, internet access had reached the village and the local government was offering support to those willing to start businesses. The beautiful mountains and fresh air, once taken for granted, now seemed full of potential to him.(道路已铺设完毕，互联网也已覆盖到村庄，当地政府还为有意创业的人提供支持。那些曾经习以为常的美丽山景和清新空气，如今在他眼中充满了无限潜力)”可知，他回乡发现“道路铺好、网络覆盖、政府支持创业”等新变化，从而萌生开咖啡馆的想法。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“It’s a window for his village. Tourists come on weekends, and in his café they discover and buy local specialties like mountain tea and dried fruits. Zhang has hired two local women, providing them with steady income.(这是他村庄的一扇窗口。周末游客纷至沓来，在他的咖啡馆里发现并购买当地特产，如山茶和干果。张雇佣了两名本地女性，为她们提供了稳定的收入)”可知，咖啡馆成为“村庄的窗口”，带动旅游、销售土特产、雇佣当地妇女，并引发年轻人回乡思考，这些都体现了“帮助村庄发展”。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段““My dream isn’t huge,” Zhang says, looking at the lively scene outside. “I just want our home to prosper, so that our children love to stay here.” His journey paints a picture of modern rural China — one where returning wings bring new life.(“我的梦想并不宏大，”张看着外面热闹的景象说道，“我只是希望我们的家兴旺起来，让我们的孩子愿意留在这里。”他的经历描绘出一幅现代中国农村的图景——一个归来的翅膀带来新生的地方)”以及全文围绕张宏军从农民工转变为咖啡馆老板的经历展开，并突出这一转变对乡村的积极影响。C项（从农民工到咖啡馆老板）最符合文章标题。 C Poetry, once a respected literary form using rhythm and imagery to convey emotion, is losing its appeal among young people. This decline invites several explanations. Some blame its complicated language; others point to the rise of visual media. Whatever the cause, poetry seems increasingly irrelevant in modern society. A key barrier is accessibility. Readers today often find poetry difficult due to abstract language, complex symbolism, or historical references. For instance, Emily Dickinson’s “Hope is the thing with feathers” requires readers to decipher symbolic language, which can be too demanding for today’s readers. In contrast, a short video delivering a similar message in an engaging, straightforward way is far more accessible. Moreover, other forms of entertainment — music, movies, streaming platforms — have shifted people’s focus from written text to video, images and interactive content. These formats combine storytelling with attractive audio-visual elements, making them more appealing. In an era of constant digital distraction, people prefer quick, digestible content like social media posts. Poetry, which demands focused thought, seems outdated and less attractive. Furthermore, digital habits discourage deep reading. A 2018 report by the American Psychological Association (APA) study found fewer than 20% of U.S. teens read books daily for pleasure, while 80% use social media. Since poetry relies on deep reading and reflection — skills rarely practiced today — its consumption naturally declines. Yet poetry is adapting. Digitalization makes poems more approachable: poets share works on social media, reaching global audiences instantly. Lighthearted, humorous poetry is rising without sacrificing artistic quality. For instance, Shel Silverstein’s poems are playful and whimsical (异想天开的), yet they contain creative expressions that help readers reflect upon life in deep ways. Whether poetry will fade away or come back in new forms remains unclear. The answer lies in narrowing the gap between its traditional and modern forms and finding ways to draw a wider audience. As the world evolves, so must poetry if it wishes to survive and thrive (发展). 28. What does the underlined word “decipher” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Understand. B. Adopt. C. Generate. D. Rewrite. 29. What makes poetry less popular according to the text? A. Poetry is becoming increasingly difficult to translate. B. Audio-visual entertainment has great appeal to people. C. Young people lose the ability to conduct deep thinking. D. Digital reading replaces book reading on a large scale. 30. Why are Shel Silverstein’s poems mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To introduce a topic. B. To illustrate a phenomenon. C. To support a viewpoint. D. To argue against an opinion. 31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Poetry is bound to attract more audience. B. Poetry is supposed to remain its characteristics. C. Poetry needs variety and richness in its language forms. D. Poetry should balance between tradition and modernity. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】文章分析了诗歌在年轻人当中吸引力下降的多重原因：语言晦涩、视听娱乐冲击、深度阅读缺失；同时指出诗歌也在借助数字化进行自我调整；作者认为诗歌想要蓬勃发展，需要平衡传统与现代，拉近和大众的距离。 【28题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“A key barrier is accessibility. Readers today often find poetry difficult due to abstract language, complex symbolism, or historical references. For instance, Emily Dickinson’s “Hope is the thing with feathers” requires readers to decipher symbolic language, which can be too demanding for today’s readers. (一大阻碍在于理解门槛。如今读者常常觉得诗歌难懂，因为抽象的语言、复杂的象征手法或是历史典故。例如，艾米莉・狄金森的《希望是长着羽毛的事物》需要读者decipher象征语言，这对当下读者来说要求过高。)”可知，读者如今觉得诗歌难懂，是因为它有抽象语言、复杂象征或历史典故，举狄金森的诗句为例，说明读者需要去理解这类象征语言，对当下读者来说要求过高，由此可推测decipher意为“理解”。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Moreover, other forms of entertainment — music, movies, streaming platforms — have shifted people’s focus from written text to video, images and interactive content. These formats combine storytelling with attractive audio-visual elements, making them more appealing. In an era of constant digital distraction, people prefer quick, digestible content like social media posts. Poetry, which demands focused thought, seems outdated and less attractive. (此外，音乐、电影、流媒体平台等其他娱乐形式，把人们的注意力从书面文字转移到视频、图片以及互动内容上。这些载体把叙事和吸引人的视听元素结合，更有诱惑力。在一个数字信息不断分散注意力的时代，人们偏爱社交媒体帖子这类简短易懂的内容。而诗歌需要专注思考，显得过时、吸引力不足。)”可知，诗歌不受欢迎的原因在于音乐、电影、流媒体平台等视听娱乐对人们有很大吸引力。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Yet poetry is adapting. Digitalization makes poems more approachable: poets share works on social media, reaching global audiences instantly. Lighthearted, humorous poetry is rising without sacrificing artistic quality. For instance, Shel Silverstein’s poems are playful and whimsical, yet they contain creative expressions that help readers reflect upon life in deep ways. (然而诗歌也在适应时代。数字化让诗歌更容易走近大众：诗人在社交媒体分享作品，瞬间触达全球读者。轻松幽默的诗歌正在兴起，同时并不牺牲艺术品质。例如谢尔・希尔弗斯坦的诗歌俏皮天马行空，却包含富有创造力的表达，引导读者深刻反思生活。)”可知，本段的核心观点是“诗歌正在做出改变，数字化让诗歌更容易被接受”，举谢尔・希尔弗斯坦的例子就是为了佐证这个观点。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“The answer lies in narrowing the gap between its traditional and modern forms and finding ways to draw a wider audience. As the world evolves, so must poetry if it wishes to survive and thrive. (出路在于缩小传统形式与现代形式之间的鸿沟，找到吸引更多受众的途径。世界在不断发展，诗歌若想要生存并蓬勃发展，也必须与时俱进。)”可知，诗歌想要蓬勃发展就必须与时俱进，缩小传统形式与现代形式之间的鸿沟，也就是要在传统和现代性之间做好平衡。 D Is the ability to pretend and imagine situations uniquely human? To find out the answer, a team of evolutionary scientists conducted a study with Kanzi, a language-trained bonobo (倭黑猩猩), exploring whether primates (灵长目动物) can fully understand the concept of imaginary objects. In the experiment, researchers tested Kanzi’s imagination through pretend play. A researcher sat across a table, placing an empty container and a pair of see-through cups on the table between them. The scientist then “poured” imaginary juice into each empty cup before pretending to tip one cup back into the container. Kanzi was then asked to visually locate the remaining juice. The team also recreated this setup by carefully “transferring” pretend grapes between two containers. Kanzi showed a remarkable capacity to trace the invisible items. He correctly pointed at the cup containing the imaginary liquid in 68% of the trials, and successfully identified the nonexistent fruit in 69% of the grape trials. To rule out that Kanzi was simply confused or failing to perceive reality, researchers ran a control test. Asked to choose between an empty cup used for pretend juice and a glass containing real orange juice, Kanzi routinely chose the real one, proving he engaged in make-believe consciously rather than merely copying human actions. While originally set up to investigate simple behaviors during structured trials, and conducted against the background that primates lack abstract thought, the study produced findings that go far beyond these initial expectations. “Our evidence shows some primates possess complex cognitive (认知的) processes once thought unique to humans,” said co-author Christopher Krupenye. This breakthrough casts new light on the deep evolutionary origins of human imagination. Importantly, however, Kanzi spent his entire life interacting with human scientists, acquiring advanced communication skills along the way. It remains unclear whether wild bonobos naturally share this cognitive ability. As psychologist Natalie Awad Schwob noted, “I’d love to see data from more typically raised bonobos to confirm if this imaginative tendency is universal or largely a result of human influence.” 32. What was Kanzi required to do in the experiment in paragraph 2? A. Mark the location of the cups. B. Choose between pretend and real juice. C. Track the movements of imaginary objects. D. Copy the pouring actions of the researchers. 33. What can we learn about Kanzi from the control test? A. He purposely mirrored humans. B. He naturally shared the cognitive ability. C. He distinguished reality from imagination. D. He failed to identify the physical objects. 34. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Its purpose. B. Its process. C. Its background. D. Its significance. 35. What do Natalie Awad Schwob’s words suggest? A. The need for data review. B. The negative effect of the research. C. A barrier to potential application. D. A possible direction for further study. 【答案】32. C 33. C 34. D 35. D 【解析】 【导语】文章通过对受过语言训练的倭黑猩猩坎齐开展假想物体相关实验，发现它能够有意识地参与想象游戏，说明部分灵长类拥有曾被视作人类独有的复杂认知能力；但坎齐长期与人类相处，该能力是否为倭黑猩猩天生所有尚不明确，还需要更多研究加以验证。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In the experiment, researchers tested Kanzi’s imagination through pretend play. A researcher sat across a table, placing an empty container and a pair of see-through cups on the table between them. The scientist then ‘poured’ imaginary juice into each empty cup before pretending to tip one cup back into the container. Kanzi was then asked to visually locate the remaining juice. The team also recreated this setup by carefully ‘transferring’ pretend grapes between two containers. (在实验中，研究人员通过假装游戏测试坎齐的想象力。一名研究者坐在桌子对面，在两人中间的桌面上摆放一个空容器和两个透明杯子。随后科学家把假想的果汁‘倒入’每个空杯子，再假装把其中一杯倒回容器。之后要求坎齐指出剩下的果汁在哪里。研究团队还重复该实验流程，在两个容器之间小心地‘转移’假想的葡萄。)”及第三段首句“Kanzi showed a remarkable capacity to trace the invisible items. (坎齐展现出追踪看不见的物品的出色能力。)”可知，研究者模拟倾倒假想果汁、转移假想葡萄的动作后，要求坎齐找出剩下的假想物品，本质是追踪假想物体的移动轨迹。 【33题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“To rule out that Kanzi was simply confused or failing to perceive reality, researchers ran a control test. Asked to choose between an empty cup used for pretend juice and a glass containing real orange juice, Kanzi routinely chose the real one, proving he engaged in make-believe consciously rather than merely copying human actions. (为排除坎齐只是混淆现实、无法分辨真实情况，研究人员开展了对照测试。面对一只做假想果汁游戏的空杯子和一杯真正的橙汁，坎齐总是选择真正的橙汁。这证明他是有意识参与假想游戏，而不只是单纯模仿人类动作。)”可知，对照组测试里，坎齐总是选择真正的橙汁而非装过假想果汁的空杯子，证明它能分清现实事物和假想游戏，不是单纯机械模仿人类动作。 【34题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第四段“While originally set up to investigate simple behaviors during structured trials, and conducted against the background that primates lack abstract thought, the study produced findings that go far beyond these initial expectations. ‘Our evidence shows some primates possess complex cognitive processes once thought unique to humans,’ said co-author Christopher Krupenye. This breakthrough casts new light on the deep evolutionary origins of human imagination. (这项研究原本只是设计用来观察规范实验场景下的简单行为，开展的大背景是普遍认为灵长类缺乏抽象思维，但所得发现远远超出最初预期。该研究的合著者克里斯托弗・克鲁佩尼耶说：‘我们的证据表明，部分灵长类拥有曾被认为专属于人类的复杂认知过程。’这一突破为探究人类想象力深远的进化起源带来新的启发。)”可知，本段指出该研究打破了固有认知，为人类想象力的进化起源提供了新的启发，这都是在阐述研究的价值与意义。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段中“As psychologist Natalie Awad Schwob noted, ‘I’d love to see data from more typically raised bonobos to confirm if this imaginative tendency is universal or largely a result of human influence.’ (正如心理学家娜塔莉・阿瓦德・施沃布所说：‘我希望获取更多普通环境下长大的倭黑猩猩的数据，来确认这种想象倾向是物种普遍存在的，还是很大程度上受人类影响而形成。’)”可知，娜塔莉提出希望获取更多样本的数据去验证结论，这是给科研提出接下来要做的事，也就是进一步研究的方向。 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。 Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation (调控) to security monitoring. A sudden power failure is more than a simple inconvenience. It can shut down your heating, cut off your network, and even leave your security system blind all at once. ____36____ One of the benefits of a portable power station is the comfort it brings when the power fails. Imagine a storm hits, and suddenly, your heater or air conditioning shuts off.

E 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了便携式储能电站的多重优势：停电时保障基础设备运转；对比传统发电机更适合室内；维持无线网络；储存太阳能；还可以作为安防系统的备用电源。 【36题详解】 前文“Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation to security monitoring. A sudden power failure is more than a simple inconvenience. It can shut down your heating, cut off your network, and even leave your security system blind all at once. (如今，智能设备几乎管理着家居生活的方方面面，从温度调控到安全监控。突发停电带来的不只是不便。它会关闭供暖设备、切断网络，甚至会让安防系统瞬间失灵。)”指出突发停电会导致供暖中断、断网、安防系统失效等一系列问题，D项“A portable power station can prevent such interruptions. (便携式电站可以避免这类中断。)”承接前文问题，引出后文便携式电站的优势，符合语境。 【37题详解】 后文“This makes it quieter, cleaner, easier to maintain, and more suitable for indoor use. (这使得它更安静、洁净、易于维护，也更适合室内使用。)”提到这让它更安静、洁净、易维护且更适合室内使用，G项“Unlike traditional generators, the portable power station runs on batteries. (与传统发电机不同，便携式电站依靠电池运行。)”解释了该设备具备这些优势的原因，逻辑衔接紧密。 【38题详解】 前文“Being able to control appliances via Wi-Fi is one of the hallmarks of modern smart homes. However, if the power goes down, you lose access to that connectivity. Even if the power comes back in a few minutes, some of your appliances may not work properly after a forced restart. (能够通过无线网络操控家电是现代智能家居的一大标志。然而一旦停电，网络连接就会中断。哪怕几分钟后恢复供电，部分电器在强制重启之后也可能无法正常工作。)”说明停电会断网，设备强制重启后可能无法正常工作，后文“That way, you won’t lose connectivity during a blackout. (这样，停电期间你就不会失去网络连接。)”提到这样停电时就不会断网，C项“A portable power station can keep your Wi-Fi running. (便携式电站可以维持你的无线网络运行。)”承上启下，符合逻辑。 【39题详解】 前文“If you’ve invested in solar panels or another renewable energy source, a portable power station can be an excellent way to store energy. When the sun is shining, any extra energy generated by your solar panels can be stored in the portable power station.  (如果你已经安装太阳能板或者其他可再生能源设备，便携式储能电站是很好的储能工具。阳光充足时，太阳能板产生的多余电能可以储存在便携式储能电站中。)”介绍了便携式电站搭配太阳能板储电的功能，B项“It powers your home when solar panels stop working. (当太阳能板停止工作时，它可以为你的家供电。)”承接前文储存多余太阳能的内容，说明储电的作用。 【40题详解】 后文“An entire security system will become blind without stable power. So if you want to make sure your system is fully functional during a blackout, you’d better have a portable power station as backup power. (没有稳定电源，整套安防系统就会彻底失效。因此，如果你希望安防系统在停电期间正常运转，最好配备便携式储能电站作为备用电源。)”指出整个安防系统没有稳定电力就会失效，E项“Security systems require nonstop power to stay effective. (安防系统需要不间断供电才能保持正常运作。)”作为段首主题句，引出后文安防系统需要便携式电站作为备用电源的内容。 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四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Music has a remarkable ability to uplift spirits.

C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者作为一名盲人音乐家，通过在地铁等公共场合表演音乐，克服自身障碍，努力为他人带来美好体验，并在挑战中不断成长，最终实现自己用音乐连接人们情感的故事。 【41题详解】 考查形容词。句意：当我在公共场合听到美妙的声音或欢快的旋律时，它常常将我从自己的思绪和烦恼中拉出来。A. moody情绪化的；B. dreamy梦幻的；C. cheery欢快的；D. sleepy困倦的。根据前文“Music has a remarkable ability to uplift spirits.”可知，音乐具有振奋精神的作用，可推测此处指欢快的旋律符合振奋人心的语境。 【42题详解】 考查名词。句意：我旨在通过我的表演为他人提供同样的体验。A. performances表演；B. descriptions描述；C. inquiries询问；D. invitations邀请。根据后文“performing in settings like subway stations”可知，后文提到了在地铁站表演，可推理出作者是通过公开表演为他人提供类似听到音乐的美好体验。 【43题详解】 考查名词。句意：然而，对于像我这样的盲人音乐家来说，在地铁站这样的环境中表演可能是一个挑战。A. task任务；B. reality现实；C. trade行业；D. challenge挑战。根据后文“it was precisely this challenge that motivated me to learn and adapt my approach”可知，后文明确提到这一情况是挑战，此处为原词复现。 【44题详解】 考查名词。句意：在繁忙的城市里，因为自身的残疾，我曾经总是试图尽量减少自己在身体和社交上的存在感。A. doubt怀疑；B. disability残疾；C. secret秘密；D. regret后悔。根据前文“to a blind musician like me”可知，作者是盲人，盲人属于身体残疾，因此此处指因残疾而产生想要减少存在感的心理。 【45题详解】 考查动词。句意：然而，如果我想实现自己的目标，就必须克服这个习惯。A. overcome克服；B. develop发展；C. maintain维持；D. follow跟随。根据前文“I used to find myself trying to minimize my physical and social presence”及后文“realize my goal”可知，前文提到了作者试图尽量减少自己在身体和社交上的存在感，后文提到了实现目标，可推理出作者想实现目标，就需要克服之前减少自身存在感的习惯，即克服这种阻碍目标实现的行为。 【46题详解】 考查名词。句意：我鼓起全部勇气，深吸一口气，开始唱歌。A. courage勇气；B. knowledge知识；C. wisdom智慧；D. patience耐心。根据前文“I still remember my first public performance vividly”及后文“I took a deep breath and began to sing”可知，作者第一次公开表演，面对未知的场合，需要鼓起勇气才能开始唱歌，体现面对挑战时的心理状态。 【47题详解】 考查副词。句意：很快我了解到，在家唱歌和在公共场合表演大不相同。A. frequently频繁地；B. exactly确切地；C. greatly极大地；D. slightly略微。根据后文“It made me feel like “a drop in the ocean””可知，作者在公共场合表演时感觉自己像大海中的一滴水，说明公共场合表演和在家唱歌存在巨大差异，“greatly”修饰“differed”，强调差异程度。 【48题详解】 考查动词短语。句意：要和巨大的噪音以及人群竞争，这让我感觉自己像是“沧海一粟”。A. get rid of摆脱；B. put up with忍受；C. associate with联系；D. compete with与……竞争。根据前文“big noise and crowds”及后文“it was precisely this challenge that motivated me to learn and adapt my approach”可知，作者在公共场合需要面对巨大的噪音和人群，“compete with”此处指在公共场合表演时，歌声需要和周围的噪音、人群的嘈杂声竞争，让作者感觉自己十分渺小。 【49题详解】 考查副词。句意：然而，恰恰是这个挑战激励我去学习并调整自己的方法。A. Therefore因此；B. Otherwise否则；C. However然而；D. Moreover而且。根据前文“It made me feel like “a drop in the ocean””可知，作者面对噪音和人群感到渺小，这是一种困境，而后文“it was precisely this challenge that motivated me”表明挑战带来积极影响，前后为转折关系，所以用“However”。 【50题详解】 考查名词。句意：一首接一首地唱，我取得了进步。A. trouble麻烦；B. progress进步；C. peace和平；D. money金钱。根据后文“Thanks, that’s the first time I’ve smiled today”可知，作者不断表演，并且获得了路人积极的反馈，说明在这个过程中有了进步。 【51题详解】 考查动词。句意：有些路人扔下硬币没有停下；另一些人则停下来欣赏。A. appreciate欣赏；B. judge判断；C. imagine想象；D. assist帮助。根据前文“Some passers-by dropped coins without pausing”及后文“Thanks, that’s the first time I’ve smiled today”可知，路人有扔硬币的，有停下来并给予积极反馈的，停下来的人应该是欣赏作者的表演，才会出现后文的感谢场景。 【52题详解】 考查副词。句意：有一次，一位疲惫的女士甚至对我说：“谢谢，这是我今天第一次微笑。”A. also也；B. even甚至；C. instead代替；D. still仍然。根据前文“Some passers-by dropped coins without pausing”及后文“Thanks, that’s the first time I’ve smiled today”可知，路人不仅扔硬币、停下欣赏，甚至有人因作者的表演露出微笑，“even”表递进，强调这种积极反馈的程度，突出作者表演带来的影响。 【53题详解】 考查动词。句意：在那一刻，我意识到自己实现了目标——将一段原本可能枯燥的经历转变为美好而有意义的事。A. grouping分组；B. adding增加；C. dividing划分；D. translating转变。根据后文“a potentially boring experience into something beautiful and meaningful”可知，后文提到了原本可能枯燥的经历，还提到了美好有意义的事，可推理出此处说的是将一段原本可能枯燥的经历转变为美好而有意义的事，“translate...into...”为固定搭配，意为“将……转变为……”，符合语境。 【54题详解】 考查名词。句意：地铁是一个过渡空间，人们在这里行进、休息，或处于两者之间的状态。A. imagination想象力；B. transition过渡；C. inspiration灵感；D. extension延伸。根据后文“where people are on the move, at rest, or caught in between”可知，人们在地铁中处于行进、休息或中间状态，说明地铁是一个人们状态过渡的地方，“transition”符合这种动态变化的语境。 【55题详解】 考查形容词。句意：我的音乐成为一根线，连接起这些不同的经历，将共同的情感和故事凝聚在一起。A. unforgettable难忘的；B. tiring令人疲惫的；C. diverse不同的；D. upset沮丧的。根据前文“here people are on the move, at rest, or caught in between”以及后文“bringing together shared emotions and stories”可知，地铁中人们处于不同状态，拥有的经历各不相同，后文提到把共同的情感和故事凝聚在一起，可推理出此处说的是音乐把这些不同的经历连接在一起。 第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 A groundbreaking exhibition named “Civilization of the Qin and Han Dynasties” opened at the Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest, bringing rare Chinese treasures to Central Europe. The show included over 150 ancient artworks and among them ____56____ (be) ten original Terracotta Warriors (兵马俑). It enabled the museum ____57____ (stage) the biggest display of Chinese masterpieces there in 25 years. Many Hungarians still remember the country’s first Terracotta Warriors show in 1988. However, the new presentation was markedly larger in scale. ____58____ (organize) by Chinese and Hungarian experts, the project integrated modern digital design such as a revolutionary 3D projection and the successful recovery of the faded colors.

Laszlo Baan, the museum ____61____ (direct), stressed it was extremely rare to view genuine Terracotta Warriors outside China.

Organized 59. innovative 60. what 61. director 62. a 63. and 64. bridging 65. to 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了在匈牙利布达佩斯美术博物馆举办的“秦汉文明”开创性展览的相关情况，包括展览的展品规模、特色设计、带来的文化影响等内容。 【56题详解】 考查时态和主谓一致。句意：展览包含150多件古代艺术品，其中有十件兵马俑原作。该句为完全倒装句，主语是ten original Terracotta Warriors，为复数概念，前文时态为一般过去时，描述过去发生的展览相关情况，be动词需用一般过去时的复数形式were。  【57题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：这使得该博物馆得以举办25年来当地规模最大的中国精品作品展。固定结构enable sth./sb. to do sth.表示“使某物/某人能够做某事”，此处需要用不定式to stage作宾语补足语。 【58题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：由中匈专家组织，该项目融合了革命性3D投影、褪色色彩成功复原等现代数字设计。主语the project与动词organize是被动关系，表示项目是被组织的，需用过去分词organized作状语，句首单词首字母需大写。 【59题详解】 考查形容词。句意：这一创新特色给观众带来了沉浸式的体验，让他们感受到这些雕塑两千年前的样子。此处修饰名词feature，需要将innovate转换为形容词形式innovative，意为“创新的”。 【60题详解】 考查宾语从句。句意：这一创新特色给观众带来了沉浸式的体验，让他们感受到这些雕塑两千年前的样子。介词of后接宾语从句，从句中looked like缺少宾语，指代事物，用引导词what来引导。 【61题详解】 考查名词。句意：该博物馆馆长拉兹洛·班强调，在中国境外观赏到真正的兵马俑是极其难得的。此处指代职位身份，将动词direct转换为表示“管理者、馆长”的名词形式director，作Laszlo Baan的同位语。 【62题详解】 考查冠词。句意：他指出这使得布达佩斯的这场展览成为中欧民众一代人才能遇到的一次文化机遇。此处表示“一个千载难逢的文化机遇”，是泛指，once-in-a-generation的发音以辅音音素开头，用不定冠词a。  【63题详解】 考查连词。句意：据分析人士称，该展览吸引了数千名游客，并且它有望成为该博物馆历史上参观人数最多的三场展览之一。前后两个分句是顺承并列关系，说明展览的两个向好的情况，用并列连词and连接。 【64题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：最终，通过连接东西方文明，这场非凡的活动不仅在传统淡季提升了这座城市的文化旅游业绩，还对双方的文化交流大有裨益。介词by后需要接动名词形式作宾语，表示“通过某种方式”，故填bridging。  【65题详解】 考查介词。句意：最终，通过连接东西方文明，这场非凡的活动不仅在传统淡季提升了这座城市的文化旅游业绩，还对双方的文化交流大有裨益，给所有参与者留下了持久的印象。固定搭配be beneficial to表示“对……有益”，是固定用法，故填to。 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 66. 假定你是李华，外教Allen本周六计划邀请2-3名同学去家里做客，并要求每位同学分享一道拿手菜。请给Allen写一封自荐邮件，内容包括： （1）介绍你准备带的菜； （2）阐述你选择的理由。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右。 （2）请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Allen, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Allen, Glad to know you will invite some students to your home this Saturday.

Every day at lunch, I would slip out of the noisy cafeteria and find a quiet corner in the library’s back hallway. It wasn’t that I hated people — back in my old school, I was the one who always started the lunch table conversations. But here? I just felt like I didn’t belong. My family had moved to this town at the start of the semester, and somehow, everyone else already had their friend groups, their inside jokes, their unspoken rules about where to sit. I had none of that. My mother noticed. “You need to step out of your zone to reach others,” she would say, packing my lunch with extra care. I would nod, then do the same thing the next day: grab my lunch tray (餐盘), walk toward the cafeteria doors, then turn left toward the library instead. Then came the afternoon everything changed. I was sitting in my usual spot, eating alone, when I heard footsteps. An elderly janitor (看门人) named Mr. Elian — someone I had only ever seen pushing a mop (拖把) from a distance — walked toward me with a broom (扫帚) in one hand and his own lunch bag in the other. “Mind if I join you?” he asked, without waiting for an answer, lowering himself onto the floor across from me. I shrugged. It was a free hallway. Then he said something I still remember: “You know, I used to eat alone too. For years, actually.” I looked up. “Really?” He nodded. “After my wife passed. I didn’t know how to be around people anymore. So I found a quiet corner — just like this one — and I stayed there.” “What changed?” I asked. Mr. Elian smiled. “One day, someone sat down next to me. Didn’t say much. Just sat there. And somehow, that small act reminded me that I wasn’t invisible.” He took a bite of his sandwich and looked at me. “Sometimes,” he said, “the person sitting alone isn’t choosing to be alone. They’re just waiting for someone to notice.” I didn’t say anything. But something in my chest loosened. 注意： 1．续写的词数应为120左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At lunch the next day, I walked straight into the cafeteria. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After our chat, I noticed Mr. Elian in the distance, smiling. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Paragraph 1： At lunch the next day, I walked straight into the cafeteria. The roar of conversations hit me like a wave, and my heart was racing. “Just breathe,” I told myself, recalling Mr. Elian’s words. Scanning the room, I caught sight of a boy sitting alone. Taking a deep breath, I stepped over. “Mind if I join you?” I asked. He looked up, surprise melting into a shy smile and agreed. As we chatted casually about school life, the invisible wall around me magically disappeared. Paragraph 2： After our chat, I noticed Mr. Elian in the distance, smiling. He gave me a big thumbs-up, and our silent exchange filled me with warmth. His encouraging eyes seemed to praise my bravery. Walking out of the cafeteria, I realized I had finally found a sense of belonging. More importantly, I understood that belonging isn’t found in quiet corners, but is created in the brave moments when we reach out. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述转学后作者难以融入新环境，每天午餐躲在图书馆走廊独自吃饭，看门人埃利安先生用自身经历开导作者，使作者鼓起勇气走进食堂主动接近他人，并领悟到归属感源于勇敢主动交往的道理。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者走进食堂时紧张的心理，回忆埃利安先生的话语，主动靠近独自就餐的男孩，与之交谈，消除内心的隔阂。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，本段可描写作者看到埃利安先生给予的鼓励，内心深受触动，领悟归属感来自勇敢主动与人交往的人生感悟。 2.续写线索：内心紧张——回忆开导——主动搭话——愉快交谈——收到鼓励——感悟归属 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①呼吸：breathe/inhale/take a breath ②赞扬：praise/compliment 情绪类 ①惊讶：surprise/astonishment/amazement ②腼腆的：shy/timid 【点睛】【高分句型1】Scanning the room, I caught sight of a boy sitting alone.

People can pick up a package from a locker at a time that suits them, in a convenient location near their residence or workplace. Why are they not widely used? Despite all their advantages, parcel lockers are still far from being widely adopted by online shoppers. Many consumers still tend to have their online shopping parcels delivered directly to their homes instead of using parcel lockers, simply because they don’t know this delivery option when placing online orders and thus have never tried it. Why is EasyLocker different? EasyLocker is one of the most popular parcel locker services. Here are some of its key advantages. Advantages Details Security Parcels are safe in automated lockers. Opening time It’s available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. Environmental protection Combined deliveries reduce traffic and your carbon footprint. Convenience Choose from over 250 locations islandwide. Privacy Your home address and contact details stay private from delivery staff. How to use EasyLocker? ●Select EasyLocker as your delivery option when ordering online. ●Wait for a notification (通知) that your parcel has arrived. ●Go to the chosen locker location. ●Enter the unique access code sent to your phone on the locker’s screen. ●Take your parcel and secure the locker door before you leave. EasyLocker isn’t just a delivery option — it’s the smarter way to receive parcels. No missed deliveries. No waiting around. No sacrifice of security or sustainability. With EasyLocker, receiving parcels becomes simpler and greener. 21. What keeps some shoppers from trying a parcel locker? A. Inconvenient locations. B. Environmental concerns. C. Inefficiency of delivery. D. Unawareness of its presence. 22. What makes EasyLocker convenient? A. It keeps parcels safe in automated lockers. B. It has over 250 pickup locations across the island. C. It offers a lower delivery fee for large packages. D. It delivers parcels directly to the user’s office. 23. Who are the target readers of the text? A. Locker producers. B. Delivery staff. C. Online purchasers. D. Potential investors. B Zhang Hongjun once spent his days on noisy construction sites in Shanghai, far from his rural hometown in Fujian province. For over a decade, his life followed a common path: long hours of labor, low pay, and the loneliness of being a migrant worker in a vast city. He dreamed of a change but saw few opportunities back home. A visit became a turning point. Staying in his village, Zhang noticed something new. The roads were paved, internet access had reached the village and the local government was offering support to those willing to start businesses. The beautiful mountains and fresh air, once taken for granted, now seemed full of potential to him. An idea began to form: what if he could build a future here, not just make a living there? Using his savings and a small government allowance, Zhang took a daring step. He transformed his family’s old, empty house into a modern café, a place where city visitors could enjoy coffee while viewing the terraced fields (梯田). At first, neighbors were puzzled. “Who will come to the mountains for coffee?” they asked. Zhang persisted (坚持), learning about coffee beans and coffee-making skills online. Today, “Mountain Cloud Café” is more than a coffee shop. It’s a window for his village. Tourists come on weekends, and in his café they discover and buy local specialties like mountain tea and dried fruits. Zhang has hired two local women, providing them with steady income. More importantly, his success has sparked (引发) a conversation. A few other young people, who once thought leaving was the only option, are now asking, “Could I come back too?” “My dream isn’t huge,” Zhang says, looking at the lively scene outside. “I just want our home to prosper, so that our children love to stay here.” His journey paints a picture of modern rural China — one where returning wings bring new life. 24. Which of the following best describes Zhang’s early life as a migrant worker? A. Simple. B. Secure. C. Unsatisfying. D. Undisturbing. 25. Why did Zhang return and start his Café business? A. He failed in his job in Shanghai. B. He was in poor health in the city. C. He was invited by the local government. D. He found new changes and support in his village. 26. What can we learn about Mountain Cloud Café? A. It helps develop the village. B. It features special coffee beans. C. It is profitable and custom-made. D. It is popular from beginning to end. 27. What can be the most suitable title for the text? A. A New Trend of Village Tourism B. The Importance of Local Specialties C. From Migrant Worker to Café Owner D. Between the city and the village C Poetry, once a respected literary form using rhythm and imagery to convey emotion, is losing its appeal among young people. This decline invites several explanations. Some blame its complicated language; others point to the rise of visual media. Whatever the cause, poetry seems increasingly irrelevant in modern society. A key barrier is accessibility. Readers today often find poetry difficult due to abstract language, complex symbolism, or historical references. For instance, Emily Dickinson’s “Hope is the thing with feathers” requires readers to decipher symbolic language, which can be too demanding for today’s readers. In contrast, a short video delivering a similar message in an engaging, straightforward way is far more accessible. Moreover, other forms of entertainment — music, movies, streaming platforms — have shifted people’s focus from written text to video, images and interactive content. These formats combine storytelling with attractive audio-visual elements, making them more appealing. In an era of constant digital distraction, people prefer quick, digestible content like social media posts. Poetry, which demands focused thought, seems outdated and less attractive. Furthermore, digital habits discourage deep reading. A 2018 report by the American Psychological Association (APA) study found fewer than 20% of U.S. teens read books daily for pleasure, while 80% use social media. Since poetry relies on deep reading and reflection — skills rarely practiced today — its consumption naturally declines. Yet poetry is adapting. Digitalization makes poems more approachable: poets share works on social media, reaching global audiences instantly. Lighthearted, humorous poetry is rising without sacrificing artistic quality. For instance, Shel Silverstein’s poems are playful and whimsical (异想天开的), yet they contain creative expressions that help readers reflect upon life in deep ways. Whether poetry will fade away or come back in new forms remains unclear. The answer lies in narrowing the gap between its traditional and modern forms and finding ways to draw a wider audience. As the world evolves, so must poetry if it wishes to survive and thrive (发展). 28. What does the underlined word “decipher” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Understand. B. Adopt. C. Generate. D. Rewrite. 29. What makes poetry less popular according to the text? A. Poetry is becoming increasingly difficult to translate. B. Audio-visual entertainment has great appeal to people. C. Young people lose the ability to conduct deep thinking. D. Digital reading replaces book reading on a large scale. 30. Why are Shel Silverstein’s poems mentioned in paragraph 5? A. To introduce a topic. B. To illustrate a phenomenon. C. To support a viewpoint. D. To argue against an opinion. 31. What does the author imply in the last paragraph? A. Poetry is bound to attract more audience. B. Poetry is supposed to remain its characteristics. C. Poetry needs variety and richness in its language forms. D. Poetry should balance between tradition and modernity. D Is the ability to pretend and imagine situations uniquely human? To find out the answer, a team of evolutionary scientists conducted a study with Kanzi, a language-trained bonobo (倭黑猩猩), exploring whether primates (灵长目动物) can fully understand the concept of imaginary objects. In the experiment, researchers tested Kanzi’s imagination through pretend play. A researcher sat across a table, placing an empty container and a pair of see-through cups on the table between them. The scientist then “poured” imaginary juice into each empty cup before pretending to tip one cup back into the container. Kanzi was then asked to visually locate the remaining juice. The team also recreated this setup by carefully “transferring” pretend grapes between two containers. Kanzi showed a remarkable capacity to trace the invisible items. He correctly pointed at the cup containing the imaginary liquid in 68% of the trials, and successfully identified the nonexistent fruit in 69% of the grape trials. To rule out that Kanzi was simply confused or failing to perceive reality, researchers ran a control test. Asked to choose between an empty cup used for pretend juice and a glass containing real orange juice, Kanzi routinely chose the real one, proving he engaged in make-believe consciously rather than merely copying human actions. While originally set up to investigate simple behaviors during structured trials, and conducted against the background that primates lack abstract thought, the study produced findings that go far beyond these initial expectations. “Our evidence shows some primates possess complex cognitive (认知的) processes once thought unique to humans,” said co-author Christopher Krupenye. This breakthrough casts new light on the deep evolutionary origins of human imagination. Importantly, however, Kanzi spent his entire life interacting with human scientists, acquiring advanced communication skills along the way. It remains unclear whether wild bonobos naturally share this cognitive ability. As psychologist Natalie Awad Schwob noted, “I’d love to see data from more typically raised bonobos to confirm if this imaginative tendency is universal or largely a result of human influence.” 32. What was Kanzi required to do in the experiment in paragraph 2? A. Mark the location of the cups. B. Choose between pretend and real juice. C. Track the movements of imaginary objects. D. Copy the pouring actions of the researchers. 33. What can we learn about Kanzi from the control test? A. He purposely mirrored humans. B. He naturally shared the cognitive ability. C. He distinguished reality from imagination. D. He failed to identify the physical objects. 34. Which aspect of the study does paragraph 4 mainly talk about? A. Its purpose. B. Its process. C. Its background. D. Its significance. 35. What do Natalie Awad Schwob’s words suggest? A. The need for data review. B. The negative effect of the research. C. A barrier to potential application. D. A possible direction for further study. 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。 Nowadays, smart devices manage nearly every aspect of home life, from temperature regulation (调控) to security monitoring.

Every day at lunch, I would slip out of the noisy cafeteria and find a quiet corner in the library’s back hallway. It wasn’t that I hated people — back in my old school, I was the one who always started the lunch table conversations. But here? I just felt like I didn’t belong. My family had moved to this town at the start of the semester, and somehow, everyone else already had their friend groups, their inside jokes, their unspoken rules about where to sit. I had none of that. My mother noticed. “You need to step out of your zone to reach others,” she would say, packing my lunch with extra care. I would nod, then do the same thing the next day: grab my lunch tray (餐盘), walk toward the cafeteria doors, then turn left toward the library instead. Then came the afternoon everything changed. I was sitting in my usual spot, eating alone, when I heard footsteps. An elderly janitor (看门人) named Mr. Elian — someone I had only ever seen pushing a mop (拖把) from a distance — walked toward me with a broom (扫帚) in one hand and his own lunch bag in the other. “Mind if I join you?” he asked, without waiting for an answer, lowering himself onto the floor across from me. I shrugged. It was a free hallway. Then he said something I still remember: “You know, I used to eat alone too. For years, actually.” I looked up. “Really?” He nodded. “After my wife passed. I didn’t know how to be around people anymore. So I found a quiet corner — just like this one — and I stayed there.” “What changed?” I asked. Mr. Elian smiled. “One day, someone sat down next to me. Didn’t say much. Just sat there. And somehow, that small act reminded me that I wasn’t invisible.” He took a bite of his sandwich and looked at me. “Sometimes,” he said, “the person sitting alone isn’t choosing to be alone. They’re just waiting for someone to notice.” I didn’t say anything. But something in my chest loosened. 注意： 1．续写的词数应为120左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 At lunch the next day, I walked straight into the cafeteria. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After our chat, I noticed Mr. Elian in the distance, smiling. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $这是2027届高三第一次模拟考试英语科听力部分，该部分分为第一第二两节。注意回答听力部分时，请先将答案标在试卷上，听力部分结束前，你将有两分钟的时间将你的答案转涂到答题卡上。现在是听力试音时间。Hello, international friends club, can I help you?
