If you’re interested in something not listed on our site or have an idea that complements what we offer, please let us know!(我们乐于承接各类特殊需求，助力游客实现梦想。如果你对网站未列出的项目感兴趣，或是有补充现有服务的想法，都可以告知我们！)”可知，该旅行团队最大的特色是可以为游客提供定制化的专属服务。 【3题详解】 细节理解题。根据套餐收费标准可知，第一晚每人85美元，第二晚每人75美元，第三晚及之后每晚每人65美元。单人三晚总费用为85+75+65=225美元，一对夫妻两人总费用为450美元。 B Maya’s dreams were not gentle. They were insistent, unfolding in the blank spaces of her accounting textbooks as broken lines of poetry. The future had already been drafted by her parents: a degree in business, a stable job, security. Her writing was a “pleasant hobby,” a phrase that made her pen feel like a ghost in her hand. The conflict was not a single conversation but a quiet, constant pressure. Her father saw her notebooks as evidence of a dangerous, risky world. Her mother worried the stories were an escape from a real life that demanded practical things. Maya complied, studying spreadsheets by day, but at night, she fed a blog under a false name. That was her real voice, a whispered rebellion. Yet, the outside world offered no sanctuary (庇护). The comments on her blog felt like an X-ray. The other writers at the workshops she attended criticized her work with a tone she couldn’t bear. Rejections from magazines carried a sharper pain — they weren’t just rejecting a hobby, but the refined craft she’d worked so hard for! Then, a moment of recognition struck, though it came with its own cost. A literary journal accepted a story — but requested thorough revisions that would take apart its hopeful ending. For a week, Maya wrestled with it, feeling like refusing. Finally, she rewrote it. The new ending held both love and distance, ambition and sacrifice. It was published. After that, she began volunteering at a community center, not as a famous author, but as a fellow struggler. She showed teenagers her early drafts, full of red ink and doubt. “The conflict isn’t the obstacle to your dream,” she’d tell them. “It’s the material. Don’t write a fairytale. Write the storm. And then, write the person learning to stand in the rain.” Her ink was no longer just for dreams. It was for mapping the risky, beautiful, and completely unique territory of a real life being lived. 4. What is the root of Maya’s inner struggle? A. Choosing between two stable jobs. B. Living a double life between work and family. C. Reconciling her dream with family’s expectations. D. Striking a balance between practical existence and fantasy. 5. What does the underlined word “complied” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Obeyed. B. Approved. C. Protested. D. Puzzled. 6. What might Maya learn from her submission experience? A. Getting published isn’t hard. B. You have to pay a fee to get recognized. C. Standing your ground is a virtue. D. You have to compromise sometimes to succeed. 7. What is Maya’s advice to the teenagers? A. Dream big and face setbacks fearlessly. B. Translate life adversities into written narratives. C. Ground your aspirations in practical preparation. D. Choose qualified sources for literary composition. 【答案】4. C 5. A 6. D 7. B 【解析】 【导语】Maya怀揣写作梦想，却受家人现实期许束缚。历经投稿波折后，她领悟要将生活磨难化为文字，并以此开导青少年。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“The future had already been drafted by her parents: a degree in business, a stable job, security. Her writing was a “pleasant hobby,” a phrase that made her pen feel like a ghost in her hand.(她的父母已经为她规划好了未来：商科学位、一份稳定的工作、安稳的生活。她的写作只是一个“不错的爱好”，这句话让她手中的笔仿佛成了幽灵。)”以及第二段“The conflict was not a single conversation but a quiet, constant pressure.(这种矛盾并非来自某一次谈话，而是一种无声且持续的压力。)”可知，Maya的内心挣扎根源在于调和自己的写作梦想与家人的期待。 【5题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第一段“The future had already been drafted by her parents: a degree in business, a stable job, security.(她的父母已经为她规划好了未来：商科学位、一份稳定的工作、安稳的生活。)”和第二段“Maya complied, studying spreadsheets by day, but at night, she fed a blog under a false name.(Maya complied，白天学习电子表格，但是夜晚，她用化名更新博客。)”可知，Maya表面听从家人安排学习会计，所以猜测complied意为“顺从，听从”，和Obeyed同义。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“A literary journal accepted a story — but requested thorough revisions that would take apart its hopeful ending. For a week, Maya wrestled with it, feeling like refusing. Finally, she rewrote it.(一本文学期刊录用了一篇故事，但要求大幅修改，要改掉充满希望的结局。整整一周Maya内心纠结，想要拒绝。最终，她重写了故事。)”可知，为了作品发表，她做出妥协，由此推断她懂得成功有时需要妥协。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段““The conflict isn’t the obstacle to your dream,” she’d tell them. “It’s the material. Don’t write a fairytale. Write the storm. And then, write the person learning to stand in the rain.”(“矛盾并不是你梦想路上的障碍，”她告诉孩子们，“它是写作素材。不要写童话。去写暴风雨。然后写下那个学会在雨中挺立的人。”)”可知，她建议青少年把生活中的困境转化为写作素材。 C Plant‑based meats are coming soon to a dinner table near you, but do they deserve a spot on your plate? If you tried a vegetable burger years ago and dismissed it as rubbery and flavorless, it’s a good time to give meatless meat another chance. Newer varieties imitate the look, flavor, and texture of meat. Analysts don’t expect the meat‑free movement to slow anytime soon; a 2021 report predicts the market will skyrocket to $74 billion by 2030 — a 957 percent surge. Plant‑based meats are no longer just for vegetarians. Companies such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat — the current superstars of the alternative protein sector — are pursuing consumers who enjoy meat but want to reduce their meat consumption for animal rights, health, or environmental reasons. So far, it’s a winning strategy: More than nine out of ten consumers who buy Beyond Burger and Impossible Foods products also eat meat. Many vegetarians don’t actually care for food that resembles meat. When reporter Joan Solsman, a longtime vegetarian, tried a dish from Impossible Foods, she felt so sick that she couldn’t finish it. “Maybe the best sign that Impossible Foods has cracked the code to realistic fake meat is that I couldn’t stand to take another bite,” she wrote. Meatless meats are generally a healthier choice than beef because they are cholesterol‑free, plus they’re a good source of vitamins, minerals, protein, and fiber. If meatless meat can help you stick to a plant‑based diet, that in itself can lead to better health. Not only has red meat been linked to cancer, but studies show that people who ditch meat have lower blood pressure, lower average blood sugar, and lower cholesterol levels. However, just because it’s plant‑based doesn’t mean it’s health food. Most imitation meats are highly processed and contain high amounts of sodium (钠) compared to traditional beef. These new generations of alternate meat get all the attention, but don’t forget about whole grains and vegetables. Beans are an especially excellent protein substitute. They’re nutritious, inexpensive, and far more sustainable than any of the processed meatless substitutes on the market today. 8. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that the plant‑based meat sector will ________. A. devote abundant resources to its promotion B. undergo continuous renewal of its product types C. witness a dramatic expansion in overall market scale D. harvest widespread attention from economic analyses 9. What can we conclude about Impossible Foods’ products from Joan Solsman’s remark? A. They more often appeal to meat‑eaters. B. They very much resemble animal meat. C. Some have become its signature dishes. D. Most of them are sold as true fake meat. 10. Why can the habit of eating a plant‑based diet lead to better health? A. It frees people from any known link to cancer. B. It provides all the nutrients for staying healthy. C. It helps maintain normal blood pressure and blood sugar. D. It reduces various health risks posed by meat consumption. 11. What does the author recommend we eat at the end of the passage? A. Naturally produced foods. B. Processed protein substitutes. C. Red meats like traditional beef. D. New generations of alternate meat. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】主要介绍人造植物肉的市场前景、消费群体，分析它的利弊，同时建议多食用天然谷物与蔬菜。 【8题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Analysts don’t expect the meat‑free movement to slow anytime soon; a 2021 report predicts the market will skyrocket to $74 billion by 2030 — a 957 percent surge.(分析师预计无肉饮食浪潮不会很快放缓；一份2021年报告预测，到2030年市场规模将猛增至740亿美元，涨幅高达957%。)”可知，植物肉行业整体市场规模将会急剧扩张。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中的““Maybe the best sign that Impossible Foods has cracked the code to realistic fake meat is that I couldn’t stand to take another bite,” she wrote.(她写道：“或许Impossible Foods破解了高仿人造肉密码的最好证明就是我一口都不想再多吃。”)”可知，这位长期素食者难以接受该产品，侧面说明产品十分逼真，高度酷似动物肉类，因此Joan Solsman的话语表明该产品非常像动物肉。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第六段中的“Not only has red meat been linked to cancer, but studies show that people who ditch meat have lower blood pressure, lower average blood sugar, and lower cholesterol levels.(红肉不仅和癌症相关，研究还表明不吃肉的人血压、平均血糖以及胆固醇水平更低。)”可知，坚持植物性饮食能够减少吃肉带来的各类健康风险。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“These new generations of alternate meat get all the attention, but don’t forget about whole grains and vegetables. Beans are an especially excellent protein substitute. They’re nutritious, inexpensive, and far more sustainable than any of the processed meatless substitutes on the market today.(新一代替代肉类备受关注，但不要忘记全谷物和蔬菜。豆类是极佳的蛋白质替代品，营养丰富、价格低廉，远比市面上各类加工植物肉更具备可持续性。)”可知，作者在文章末尾建议食用全谷物、豆类等天然食物，因此天然生产的食物是作者推荐食用的对象。 D When advertising leaders call themselves “cockroaches”, it is no self-criticism. It means that they have an extraordinary ability to survive great changes. Copywriters adjusted to radio in the 1920s; artists accepted TV in the 1950s; agencies survived the 2000s shift to online ads. Facing artificial intelligence (AI) — the most serious change — they gathered confidently at their annual Cannes meeting. As one of the fields most greatly influenced by AI, advertising offers a preview of how the technology will reshape other industries. The gap between human ad workers and AI chatbots is narrower than imagined. Creative work was once thought safe from automation — large language models (LLMs) value predictability more than creativity. Yet while truly creative ads like attaching step-counters to chickens to promote free-range eggs are still made by humans, leading technology companies now offer AI tools that produce acceptable videos or rewrite ad copy. However, with large amounts of money spent on ads yearly, most goes to common campaigns. The claim that AI will handle 95% of marketing work and that humans may only keep the 5% most creative tasks is more a warning than an exaggeration. Big companies gain most from AI, which goes against the idea that AI will make skills and intelligence available to all. Small businesses benefit — they can now make TV-quality ads for thousands instead of millions — but some big tech firms control half the global ad market. AI needs expensive computing power and large data sets, resources only the rich can get. Unlike human intelligence, which is widely spread, AI can be bought. Instead of making the competition fair, AI lets the wealthy hoard competitive advantages. AI’s effects are hard to predict. Advertisers are moving budgets from TV to simple outdoor billboards — AI now uses big data to prove if people who saw the billboard bought the product, turning guesses into clear results. Traditional public relations is another unexpected winner: As consumers use chatbots more, brands must make LLMs speak well of them. The best way is to influence the news sources LLMs depend on. In the AI age, offline communication may work better than high-tech “search-engine optimization”. Though advertising has special survival skills, its AI experience shows what’s coming for all businesses. 12. What does the example of the “step-counter chicken campaign” mainly show? A. The wide use of creative marketing strategies. B. The rapid development of AI advertising tools. C. AI’s inability to finish common advertising tasks. D. Humans’ unique advantage in creative advertising. 13. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that ________. A. AI has only drawbacks for small businesses B. Human intelligence is harder to obtain than AI C. Wealth size decides firms’ access to AI technology D. AI narrows the gap between big and small businesses 14. What mainly leads to the growing popularity of outdoor billboards? A. Their stronger visual attraction than TV ads. B. AI’s ability to measure their effects accurately. C. Their lower cost than high-tech online campaigns. D. Consumers’ growing preference for offline advertising. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI: A Threat to Advertising Leaders. B. AI and Advertising: Changes and Lessons. C. “Cockroaches” in AI Ads: A Way to Survive. D. Big Companies: Winners of AI Revolution. 【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍人工智能给广告行业带来多重改变，分析其利弊，并且指出广告业的经历可以为其他行业提供参考借鉴。 【12题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Yet while truly creative ads like attaching step‑counters to chickens to promote free‑range eggs are still made by humans, leading technology companies now offer AI tools that produce acceptable videos or rewrite ad copy. (然而，诸如给鸡佩戴计步器来推销散养鸡蛋这类真正有创意的广告依旧由人类创作，如今顶尖科技公司提供人工智能工具，可以制作合格的视频或者改写广告文案。)”可知，该例子说明人类在创意广告方面拥有独有的优势。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“AI needs expensive computing power and large data sets, resources only the rich can get. (人工智能需要昂贵的算力与庞大的数据集，这些资源只有实力雄厚的企业才能够获取。)”可知，企业能够获取人工智能技术的程度受财力大小制约。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Advertisers are moving budgets from TV to simple outdoor billboards — AI now uses big data to prove if people who saw the billboard bought the product, turning guesses into clear results. (广告商正把预算从电视转向普通户外广告牌——人工智能如今利用大数据证实看过广告牌的人是否购买该产品，把猜测转化为确切结果。)”可知，人工智能可以精准测算户外广告牌的投放效果，促使其愈发受欢迎。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“As one of the fields most greatly influenced by AI, advertising offers a preview of how the technology will reshape other industries. (作为受人工智能影响最大的行业之一，广告业可以让我们窥见这项技术将如何重塑其他行业。)”以及全文可知，文章介绍人工智能给广告行业带来的各类变化，同时从广告行业的经历中总结可供其他行业借鉴的经验教训。所以B项“AI and Advertising: Changes and Lessons. (人工智能与广告：变革与启示。)”符合语境。 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分） 阅读下列短文，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。 When your Home Becomes a Tourist Attraction Have you ever looked at a beautiful little new house in London and thought “It must be so amazing to live there”? ____16____ But for the people who actually do live in those homes, social media photography has changed what it means to live in a pictures que place. Alice Johnston is a longtime resident of Notting Hill, the London neighborhood famous for the beautifully-painted row houses and for being the setting of the movie of the same name. Johnston, a journalist, has complicated feelings about her Instagram- beloved neighborhood. She lives on Portobello Road, one of the capital’s most famous streets. ____17____ Once, she and a friend were walking his bulldog when a tourist asked if they could “borrow” the pup for a quick photo. The friend and the dog agreed, so the Instagrammer posed with the dog in front of a bright blue door and then handed over five pounds as a thank you. In that story, everybody had a good time. ____18____ “I was once woken up at 6 a.m. on Easter Sunday by a French teenager taking pictures outside,” Johnston says. ____19____ Johnston, for example, tries to be sympathetic to travelers coming to her hometown, recalling how she loved taking pictures of historic neighborhoods in Paris, Rome and the like. In fact, she recently found photos of herself as a teenager hanging out at the Notting Hill Carnival years before she moved to the capital herself. ____20____ “I feel lucky that it’s cool enough that people want to come where I live.” A. If so, you’re not alone. B. But there can be a darker side. C. For her, nothing beats the pleasure to see so many people excited about it. D. Living in a much-photographed place, some people try to take the good with the bad. E. However, when private homes become tourist attractions, quarrels can occur. F. And she has witnessed all kinds of behavior committed to getting a perfect picture. G. As a travel lover, she has become pretty understanding when seeing the crowds again. 【答案】16. A 17. F 18. B 19. D 20. G 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述伦敦风景优美的住宅区成旅游景点后，居民Johnston的复杂感受，既有游客带来的趣事，也有困扰，她仍持理解与幸运态度。 【16题详解】 根据上文“Have you ever looked at a beautiful little new house in London and thought “It must be so amazing to live there”? (你是否曾看到过伦敦一座漂亮的新房子，然后心里想着：“住在那里一定非常棒吧？”)”可知，本句承接上文，回应了上文提到的普遍存在的想法，故A选项“如果如此的话，那你并不孤单。”符合语境，故选A。 【17题详解】 根据上文“Alice Johnston is a longtime resident of Notting Hill, the London neighborhood famous for the beautifully-painted row houses and for being the setting of the movie of the same name. Johnston, a journalist, has complicated feelings about her Instagram- beloved neighborhood. She lives on Portobello Road, one of the capital’s most famous streets. (艾丽斯·约翰斯顿是诺丁山的常住居民。诺丁山是伦敦的一个著名街区，这里有着色彩艳丽的联排别墅，还曾是同名电影的拍摄地。约翰斯顿是一名记者，对于她钟爱的这个Instagram上的街区，她有着复杂的情感。她住在波特博莱路，这是伦敦最著名的街道之一。)”以及后文“Once, she and a friend were walking his bulldog when a tourist asked if they could “borrow” the pup for a quick photo. The friend and the dog agreed, so the Instagrammer posed with the dog in front of a bright blue door and then handed over five pounds as a thank you. In that story, everybody had a good time. (有一次，她和一位朋友正带着他们的斗牛犬散步，这时一位游客问他们能否“借用”这只小狗拍一张快照。这位朋友和小狗都同意了，于是这位Instagram用户和小狗一起站在一扇明亮的蓝色门前摆好姿势拍照，然后给了五英镑作为感谢。在这件事中，每个人都玩得很开心。)”可知，前文提到Johnston住在著名的Portobello Road，后文举例“游客借她朋友的狗拍照”，故本句承上启下，既说明她身处热门地点的经历，又引出具体例子，故F选项“而且她目睹了各种为了拍出完美照片而做出的行为”符合语境，故选F。 【18题详解】 根据上文“Once, she and a friend were walking his bulldog when a tourist asked if they could “borrow” the pup for a quick photo. The friend and the dog agreed, so the Instagrammer posed with the dog in front of a bright blue door and then handed over five pounds as a thank you. In that story, everybody had a good time. (有一次，她和一位朋友正带着他们的斗牛犬散步，这时一位游客问他们能否“借用”这只小狗拍一张快照。这位朋友和小狗都同意了，于是这位Instagram用户和小狗一起站在一扇明亮的蓝色门前摆好姿势拍照，然后给了五英镑作为感谢。在这件事中，每个人都玩得很开心。)”以及后文““I was once woken up at 6 a.m. on Easter Sunday by a French teenager taking pictures outside,” Johnston says. (约翰斯顿说：“复活节周日早上六点，我被一个法国少年在窗外拍摄的画面吵醒了。”)”可知，前文说“那个故事里大家都很开心”，后文转折提到“复活节周日被拍照的青少年吵醒”，故本句作为过渡，体现前后对比，故B选项“但也会有更阴暗的一面。”符合语境，故选B。 【19题详解】 根据后文“Johnston, for example, tries to be sympathetic to travelers coming to her hometown, recalling how she loved taking pictures of historic neighborhoods in Paris, Rome and the like. In fact, she recently found photos of herself as a teenager hanging out at the Notting Hill Carnival years before she moved to the capital herself. (例如，约翰斯顿试图对前来她家乡的游客表示友好和热情，她回忆起自己曾喜欢在巴黎、罗马等地拍摄那些具有历史意义的街区的照片。事实上，她最近发现了一些自己青少年时期的照片，照片中她在多年前就参加了诺丁山狂欢节。而她自己则是后来才搬到首都的。)”可知，后文讲Johnston对游客持同情态度，回忆自己在其他城市拍照的经历，本句总起该段，引出她如何平衡这种处境，故D选项“生活在一个经常被拍摄的地方，有些人试图既享受其美好之处，也接受其中的不完美之处。”符合语境，故选D。 【20题详解】 根据上文“In fact, she recently found photos of herself as a teenager hanging out at the Notting Hill Carnival years before she moved to the capital herself. (事实上，她最近发现了一些自己青少年时期的照片，照片中她在多年前就参加了诺丁山狂欢节。而她自己则是后来才搬到首都的。)”以及后文““I feel lucky that it’s cool enough that people want to come where I live.”(“我很庆幸这里的天气足够凉爽，以至于人们愿意来到我生活的这个地方。”)”可知，前文提到她理解游客，甚至自己年轻时也在附近拍照，说明她能够体谅游客。故G选项“作为一名旅行爱好者，当再次看到熙熙攘攘的人群时，她已经变得相当能体谅了。”符合语境，故选G。 第二部分 语言应用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节 完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，共15分） 阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 Early in my teaching career, a mother came to my office, upset about her daughter’s first B in math. “I don’t know how she’ll ____21____ it,” she said, “the grade feels just like a black mark on her otherwise ____22____ school report.” I tried hard to explain that it was okay to earn a B in a challenging course, and that her daughter might ____23____ from the experience of not being perfect. She looked at me as if I had lost my mind. In a world full of anxiety, parenting has become much more ____24____. Many parents try every means to protect their kids from any ____25____. They hurry to offer ____26____ answers when kids struggle with homework, and even ____27____ emails to complain of unfairness when their kids break school rules and bear the ____28____. But each intervention sends a ____29____ to the child: You can’t manage this. When they encounter larger ____30____ — a college rejection, a relationship ____31____ — they might lack the capability to deal with them. I once experienced this with my daughter. When she was in high school, I was sad to see her regularly lose sleep over essays, repeatedly balling up what she had written, weeping and ____32____ herself. I found myself wanting to intervene — to either ask the teacher for a(n) ____33____ or help with the writing. But I ____34____ the urge. Later in her college, she told me her writing became much easier because that tough struggle had taught her to improve by herself. It’s clear that over-sheltering kids from hurdles isn’t wise. Letting them overcome difficulties on their own builds real confidence in their ability to recover and ____35____ back stronger. 21. A. handle B. remember C. correct D. deserve 22.

Unlike 38. unsatisfactory 39. tackling 40. and 41. for 42. greater 43. studying 44. a 45. persistence 【解析】 【导语】主要讲述王虹刻苦钻研数学，荣获菲尔兹奖的成长奋斗经历。 【36题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：35岁的王虹于2026年成为第一位获得菲尔兹奖的中国公民。名词被序数词the first修饰时，后面常用动词不定式作后置定语，所以此处为to win。 【37题详解】 考查介词。句意：与她周围其他人们传统印象当中天赋出众的同龄人不同，她在高中刚开始时学业排名仅仅差强人意，但她从未停止攻克艰难的数学题目。结合句意，此处表达“与……不同”，用介词unlike，位于句首首字母大写。 【38题详解】 考查形容词。句意：与她周围其他人们传统印象当中天赋出众的同龄人不同，她在高中刚开始时学业排名仅仅差强人意，但她从未停止攻克艰难的数学题目。此处修饰名词academic rankings，要用形容词，结合语境表示“不尽如人意的”，satisfactory的反义词为unsatisfactory。 【39题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：与她周围其他人们传统印象当中天赋出众的同龄人不同，她在高中刚开始时学业排名仅仅差强人意，但她从未停止攻克艰难的数学题目。固定搭配cease doing sth.意为“停止做某事”，后面接动名词，所以此处为tackling。 【40题详解】 考查并列连词。句意：跳了两级之后，她16岁考入北京大学，并且最初被地球与空间科学专业录取，而非数学专业。前后两个分句语义顺承，是并列关系，所以用并列连词and。 【41题详解】 考查介词。句意：之后她动身前往法国深造，在海外求学期间甚至选修建筑课程，但是她发现数学能够带来更大的创造性探索自由。固定搭配leave for意为“动身前往某地”，所以此处为介词for。 【42题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意：之后她动身前往法国深造，在海外求学期间甚至选修建筑课程，但是她发现数学能够带来更大的创造性探索自由。此处暗含和建筑等学科对比，要用形容词比较级，great的比较级形式是greater。 【43题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：在麻省理工学院学习期间，导师引导她养成独立批判性思考的习惯。此处为while引导时间状语从句的省略结构，原句为while she was studying, 省略了she was。 【44题详解】 考查冠词。句意：目前身为一名终身教授，她坚持钻研高维数学难题。professor为可数名词单数，空前无限定词，所以此处使用冠词，结合句意，此处表示“一名终身教授”，为泛指，且tenured是以辅音音素开头的单词，所以用不定冠词a。 【45题详解】 考查名词。句意：她的经历表明真正的成功源自坚持不懈，而不是与生俱来的天赋。形容词consistent后面修饰名词，persist是动词，其名词形式为persistence，意为“坚持不懈”。 第三部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节 应用文写作（满分15分） 46. 假定你是李华，你的新西兰朋友Chris对中国的年度文化关键词很感兴趣。2025年，“韧”字当选为中国年度关键词之一，备受民众认可。请你给Chris写一封邮件，简要介绍这一关键词，内容包括： 1.“韧”字的含义； 2.入选原因； 3.个人理解。 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 Chris, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Best regards, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Chris, I’m glad you’re interested in China’s 2025 annual cultural keyword “Ren”, which means perseverance and tenacity — standing firm in difficulties and never giving up easily when facing small setbacks in life.

Our mood was light until Olle spotted a poster for the upcoming Harvest Fair. The idea of attending it was thrilling, but the ticket price of $50 quickly iced our enthusiasm. While we were thinking over the cost, our attention was drawn to the list of attractions. Among the various activities, we noticed that our favorite band - Eagles was going to perform. We couldn’t help but break into singing our favorite song by them. What added to our excitement was the pie contest in the poster, a delightful reminder of our shared memory. It used to be the most popular event in our community. But thinking of the expensive tickets, which seemed to be a shadow over our excitement, we all sighed. Then I suggested going to my parents’ store to see if they could help. Upon arriving, my dad told us he had some good news, showing some tickets to us. They were the very ones we had seen in the poster! My dad explained that his old partner had made a request to hang a poster here for the Harvest Fair, and in return, he offered us free passes. Much to my delight, there were six tickets for five people in our family and an extra one for my friend! The news was like a breath of fresh air, bringing unexpected joy into our day. We could all set out to experience the fair together, no one missing out. Just then, Mrs. Smith, out awesome 80-year-old neighbor, walked unsteadily towards us.“I just saw the poster in your window. How I used to love going to fairs!” She paused, with her eyes dropping before she continued. “But it’s hard for me to get around now, and tickets cost so much these days...” 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。 Ollie approached me, seemingly to say something. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the fair, I came up with a plan to make up for Ollie’s absence. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】Ollie approached me, seemingly to say something. As Mrs. Smith continued to gaze longingly at the poster, he whispered, “Why don’t we give her the extra ticket?” Touched by his thoughtfulness and generosity, I nodded. When we presented her with the ticket, she was overjoyed and lost for words. My dad winked at Ollie, silently expressing gratitude for his kindness. The fair was great, filled with laughter, music, and the freshly baked pies. But the very best part was seeing Mrs. Smith’s broad smile. After the fair, I came up with a plan to make up for Ollie ‘s absence. My family decided to throw a surprise “Family Harvest Fair” in his honor. Besides party decoration, we prepared simple but fun games. We also invited neighbors around. Ollie’s face lit up with surprise and gratitude. During the fair, we baked an “award-winning”pie and gifted him with a classic album bearing Eagles’autographs. Even though it wasn’t quite the same as the real fair, the genuine laughter and happiness shared among us were equally fulfilling. It was Ollie’s act of kindness that sparked a ripple of lasting joy for us all. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个阳光明媚的下午，作者和朋友奥利在当地的公园里玩滑板。这时他们看到博览会的海报，更有他们最喜欢的乐队的表演。但是昂贵的门票让他们望而却步。于是，作者想回家寻求家人的帮助。作者的爸爸找到了六张门票，刚好有一张分给奥利。这时，80岁的邻居史密斯太太向他们走去，表示很想去参加博览会，但是苦于门票太贵…… 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“奥利走近我，似乎在说什么。”可知，第一段可描写奥利分给史密斯太太，作者和家人以及史密斯太太一起去观看了博览会。 ②由第二段首句内容“博览会结束后，我想出了一个计划来弥补奥利的缺席。”可知，第二段可描写作者和家人举办一个惊喜的派对来补偿奥利。 2.续写线索：提议——赠送门票——激动——观看——实施计划——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①凝视：gaze /stare ②小声说：whisper/murmur ③决定：decide/determine 情绪类 ①感动：touched /moved ②感谢：gratitude/appreciation/thankfulness 【点睛】 [高分句型1] My dad winked at Ollie, silently expressing gratitude for his kindness.（运用了现在分词作伴随状语） [高分句型2] Even though it wasn’t quite the same as the real fair, the genuine laughter and happiness shared among us were equally fulfilling.（运用了even though引导的让步状语从句） [高分句型3] It was Ollie’s act of kindness that sparked a ripple of lasting joy for us all.（运用了强调句型） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2026年 广州市第六中学 深圳市红岭中学 九月联考 高三英语试题 本试卷分阅读、语言应用和写作三部分，共8页，满分120分，考试用时120分钟。 第一部分 阅读（共两节，满分50分） 第一节 阅读理解（共15小题，每小题2.5分，共37.5分） 阅读下列短文，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Where to go to see the northern lights When it comes to seeing the northern lights, there are many incredible destinations worldwide, including Norway, Finland, Iceland, Russia, and the USA.

They were insistent, unfolding in the blank spaces of her accounting textbooks as broken lines of poetry. The future had already been drafted by her parents: a degree in business, a stable job, security. Her writing was a “pleasant hobby,” a phrase that made her pen feel like a ghost in her hand. The conflict was not a single conversation but a quiet, constant pressure. Her father saw her notebooks as evidence of a dangerous, risky world. Her mother worried the stories were an escape from a real life that demanded practical things. Maya complied, studying spreadsheets by day, but at night, she fed a blog under a false name. That was her real voice, a whispered rebellion. Yet, the outside world offered no sanctuary (庇护). The comments on her blog felt like an X-ray. The other writers at the workshops she attended criticized her work with a tone she couldn’t bear. Rejections from magazines carried a sharper pain — they weren’t just rejecting a hobby, but the refined craft she’d worked so hard for! Then, a moment of recognition struck, though it came with its own cost. A literary journal accepted a story — but requested thorough revisions that would take apart its hopeful ending. For a week, Maya wrestled with it, feeling like refusing. Finally, she rewrote it. The new ending held both love and distance, ambition and sacrifice. It was published. After that, she began volunteering at a community center, not as a famous author, but as a fellow struggler. She showed teenagers her early drafts, full of red ink and doubt. “The conflict isn’t the obstacle to your dream,” she’d tell them. “It’s the material. Don’t write a fairytale. Write the storm. And then, write the person learning to stand in the rain.” Her ink was no longer just for dreams. It was for mapping the risky, beautiful, and completely unique territory of a real life being lived. 4. What is the root of Maya’s inner struggle? A. Choosing between two stable jobs. B. Living a double life between work and family. C. Reconciling her dream with family’s expectations. D. Striking a balance between practical existence and fantasy. 5. What does the underlined word “complied” in paragraph 2 mean? A. Obeyed. B. Approved. C. Protested. D. Puzzled. 6. What might Maya learn from her submission experience? A. Getting published isn’t hard. B. You have to pay a fee to get recognized. C. Standing your ground is a virtue. D. You have to compromise sometimes to succeed. 7. What is Maya’s advice to the teenagers? A. Dream big and face setbacks fearlessly. B. Translate life adversities into written narratives. C. Ground your aspirations in practical preparation. D. Choose qualified sources for literary composition. C Plant‑based meats are coming soon to a dinner table near you, but do they deserve a spot on your plate? If you tried a vegetable burger years ago and dismissed it as rubbery and flavorless, it’s a good time to give meatless meat another chance. Newer varieties imitate the look, flavor, and texture of meat. Analysts don’t expect the meat‑free movement to slow anytime soon; a 2021 report predicts the market will skyrocket to $74 billion by 2030 — a 957 percent surge. Plant‑based meats are no longer just for vegetarians. Companies such as Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat — the current superstars of the alternative protein sector — are pursuing consumers who enjoy meat but want to reduce their meat consumption for animal rights, health, or environmental reasons. So far, it’s a winning strategy: More than nine out of ten consumers who buy Beyond Burger and Impossible Foods products also eat meat. Many vegetarians don’t actually care for food that resembles meat. When reporter Joan Solsman, a longtime vegetarian, tried a dish from Impossible Foods, she felt so sick that she couldn’t finish it. “Maybe the best sign that Impossible Foods has cracked the code to realistic fake meat is that I couldn’t stand to take another bite,” she wrote. Meatless meats are generally a healthier choice than beef because they are cholesterol‑free, plus they’re a good source of vitamins, minerals, protein, and fiber. If meatless meat can help you stick to a plant‑based diet, that in itself can lead to better health. Not only has red meat been linked to cancer, but studies show that people who ditch meat have lower blood pressure, lower average blood sugar, and lower cholesterol levels. However, just because it’s plant‑based doesn’t mean it’s health food. Most imitation meats are highly processed and contain high amounts of sodium (钠) compared to traditional beef. These new generations of alternate meat get all the attention, but don’t forget about whole grains and vegetables. Beans are an especially excellent protein substitute. They’re nutritious, inexpensive, and far more sustainable than any of the processed meatless substitutes on the market today. 8. It can be inferred from paragraph 2 that the plant‑based meat sector will ________. A. devote abundant resources to its promotion B. undergo continuous renewal of its product types C. witness a dramatic expansion in overall market scale D. harvest widespread attention from economic analyses 9. What can we conclude about Impossible Foods’ products from Joan Solsman’s remark? A. They more often appeal to meat‑eaters. B. They very much resemble animal meat. C. Some have become its signature dishes. D. Most of them are sold as true fake meat. 10. Why can the habit of eating a plant‑based diet lead to better health? A. It frees people from any known link to cancer. B. It provides all the nutrients for staying healthy. C. It helps maintain normal blood pressure and blood sugar. D. It reduces various health risks posed by meat consumption. 11. What does the author recommend we eat at the end of the passage? A. Naturally produced foods. B. Processed protein substitutes. C. Red meats like traditional beef. D. New generations of alternate meat. D When advertising leaders call themselves “cockroaches”, it is no self-criticism. It means that they have an extraordinary ability to survive great changes. Copywriters adjusted to radio in the 1920s; artists accepted TV in the 1950s; agencies survived the 2000s shift to online ads. Facing artificial intelligence (AI) — the most serious change — they gathered confidently at their annual Cannes meeting. As one of the fields most greatly influenced by AI, advertising offers a preview of how the technology will reshape other industries. The gap between human ad workers and AI chatbots is narrower than imagined. Creative work was once thought safe from automation — large language models (LLMs) value predictability more than creativity. Yet while truly creative ads like attaching step-counters to chickens to promote free-range eggs are still made by humans, leading technology companies now offer AI tools that produce acceptable videos or rewrite ad copy. However, with large amounts of money spent on ads yearly, most goes to common campaigns. The claim that AI will handle 95% of marketing work and that humans may only keep the 5% most creative tasks is more a warning than an exaggeration. Big companies gain most from AI, which goes against the idea that AI will make skills and intelligence available to all. Small businesses benefit — they can now make TV-quality ads for thousands instead of millions — but some big tech firms control half the global ad market. AI needs expensive computing power and large data sets, resources only the rich can get. Unlike human intelligence, which is widely spread, AI can be bought. Instead of making the competition fair, AI lets the wealthy hoard competitive advantages. AI’s effects are hard to predict. Advertisers are moving budgets from TV to simple outdoor billboards — AI now uses big data to prove if people who saw the billboard bought the product, turning guesses into clear results. Traditional public relations is another unexpected winner: As consumers use chatbots more, brands must make LLMs speak well of them. The best way is to influence the news sources LLMs depend on. In the AI age, offline communication may work better than high-tech “search-engine optimization”. Though advertising has special survival skills, its AI experience shows what’s coming for all businesses. 12. What does the example of the “step-counter chicken campaign” mainly show? A. The wide use of creative marketing strategies. B. The rapid development of AI advertising tools. C. AI’s inability to finish common advertising tasks. D. Humans’ unique advantage in creative advertising. 13. It can be inferred from the third paragraph that ________. A. AI has only drawbacks for small businesses B. Human intelligence is harder to obtain than AI C. Wealth size decides firms’ access to AI technology D. AI narrows the gap between big and small businesses 14. What mainly leads to the growing popularity of outdoor billboards? A. Their stronger visual attraction than TV ads. B. AI’s ability to measure their effects accurately. C. Their lower cost than high-tech online campaigns. D. Consumers’ growing preference for offline advertising. 15. What can be a suitable title for the text? A. AI: A Threat to Advertising Leaders. B. AI and Advertising: Changes and Lessons. C. “Cockroaches” in AI Ads: A Way to Survive. D. Big Companies: Winners of AI Revolution. 第二节 阅读填空（共5小题，每小题2.5分，共12.5分） 阅读下列短文，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。 When your Home Becomes a Tourist Attraction Have you ever looked at a beautiful little new house in London and thought “It must be so amazing to live there”? ____16____ But for the people who actually do live in those homes, social media photography has changed what it means to live in a pictures que place.

Our mood was light until Olle spotted a poster for the upcoming Harvest Fair. The idea of attending it was thrilling, but the ticket price of $50 quickly iced our enthusiasm. While we were thinking over the cost, our attention was drawn to the list of attractions. Among the various activities, we noticed that our favorite band - Eagles was going to perform. We couldn’t help but break into singing our favorite song by them. What added to our excitement was the pie contest in the poster, a delightful reminder of our shared memory. It used to be the most popular event in our community. But thinking of the expensive tickets, which seemed to be a shadow over our excitement, we all sighed. Then I suggested going to my parents’ store to see if they could help. Upon arriving, my dad told us he had some good news, showing some tickets to us. They were the very ones we had seen in the poster! My dad explained that his old partner had made a request to hang a poster here for the Harvest Fair, and in return, he offered us free passes. Much to my delight, there were six tickets for five people in our family and an extra one for my friend! The news was like a breath of fresh air, bringing unexpected joy into our day. We could all set out to experience the fair together, no one missing out. Just then, Mrs. Smith, out awesome 80-year-old neighbor, walked unsteadily towards us.“I just saw the poster in your window. How I used to love going to fairs!” She paused, with her eyes dropping before she continued. “But it’s hard for me to get around now, and tickets cost so much these days...” 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。 Ollie approached me, seemingly to say something. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After the fair, I came up with a plan to make up for Ollie’s absence. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
