More than just places to buy books, they are community centers and educational playgrounds. Barnes & Noble (Union Square, NY) America’s largest bookstore company has reinvented itself. Covering 62,000 square feet across several floors, this Manhattan store includes carefully chosen books, vinyl (黑胶) records, and children’s sections. It now feels more personal, with local book selections and a comfortable café. Regular author events draw large crowds, proving that big stores can still feel warm and welcoming. Powell’s City of Books (Portland, OR) This Portland landmark sits on a full city block with an area of over 68,000 square feet. Its brightly colored rooms guide visitors through more than one million new, used, and rare (罕见的) books. The store now puts author readings online and sells books through the Internet. This combination (结合) of physical presence and online activity keeps Powell’s at the heart of American bookselling. The Last Bookstore (Los Angeles, CA) Housed in a former bank building, this 22,000-square-foot space features artistic book showcases, and a room of rare books. The store offers workshops, live music, and art shows, mixing arts with literature. This creative approach makes it both a tourist destination and a community gathering place. Book People (Austin, TX) The largest independent bookstore in Texas serves as Austin’s literary center. At 25,000 square feet, it builds strong community ties through excellent book choices. The store hosts a yearly literary festival and works closely with local writers, making it important to the city’s creative life. 21．What makes Barnes & Noble feel more personal? A．Hosting a yearly literary festival. B．Offering vinyl records and rare books. C．Providing local book selections and a café. D．Going live for author readings nationwide. 22．How does Powell’s City of Books keep its leading position in American bookselling? A．By organizing workshops. B．By cooperating with writers. C．By covering a full city block. D．By selling both online and offline. 23．Which bookstore mixes art showcases with its books? A．Barnes & Noble. B．Book People. C．The Last Bookstore. D．Powell’s City of Books. B Commencement (毕业典礼) season has arrived again — and this year, many keynote speakers have discovered that it’s tough to get graduating students excited about a future shaped by artificial intelligence (AI). Last weekend, former Google CEO Eric Schmidt faced repeated boos (倒彩) during his speech to about 10,000 University of Arizona graduates on the great changes brought about by AI. A similar response met Scott Borchetta, the CEO of Big Machine Records, when he spoke to the graduating class of Middle Tennessee State University about how AI is helping the music industry. “At the beginning we were excited about it,” said Kareen Gill, a graduate of University of Arizona with a political science degree. “But now, we don’t want it messing with the jobs that we’ve worked for years — so hard for four years — to be qualified for.” “One immediate impact I have noticed is fewer entry level positions because AI is replacing many of those jobs,” said Sami Wargo, who just graduated from Middle Tennessee State University. “I have applied for around 30 jobs but haven’t landed one yet. That sucks.” Not everyone has been met with verbal pushback to AI, though. When CleanHarbors founder Alan McKim spoke at the Northeastern University commencement, he appealed to the graduates to accept AI, but warned, “Your character will matter more than your code (代码).” No boos were heard in the audience. As Dave Lee wrote in Bloomberg, “For any commencement speaker in 2026, no conversation about the future could be credible without mentioning AI. But in front of today’s graduates, striking the right tone is hard. They know the world of work they are entering has never been more uncertain. Anxiety runs high.” 24．What message can we get from the first two paragraphs? A．The keynote speeches were boring. B．Many graduates felt threatened by AI. C．AI has become an unavoidable topic. D．Some graduating students were rude. 25．What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 3 refer to? A．Graduation. B．Speech. C．AI. D．Music industry. 26．Which is closest in meaning to “That sucks” in paragraph 4? A．It is fair enough. B．It is untrue. C．It is very bad. D．It is funny. 27．What is Dave Lee’s advice? A．Focus on AI’s harm. B．Persuade graduates to accept AI. C．Avoid mentioning AI. D．Be mindful of graduates’ worry. C Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar month. This year it is on Feb. 22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations. Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining darkness of winter. Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what? It is a pair of gloves. In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus. In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.” 28． Why do people light lanterns during the Lantern Festival? A．To paste riddles on lanterns for fun. B．To release sky lanterns and make wishes. C．To give young people a chance to meet each other. D．To show respect for gods and celebrate the end of winter’s darkness. 29．Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE? A．People make wishes when releasing lights. B．People light lanterns to drive animals away. C．People paste riddles to show off their knowledge. D．Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day. 30．What does the underlined word in the last paragraph most likely mean? A．growing. B．fading. C．brightening. D．steady. 31．What would be the best title for the text? A．A day to Guess Lantern Riddles. B．The Origin of the Lantern Festival. C．Celebrations of the Lantern Festival. D．River Lights on the Lantern Festival. D Exciting news from the University of Waterloo! A team of devoted researchers, led by PhD student Wei Wei, has made a remarkable discovery that holds the potential to change plastic waste into acetic acid (醋酸), using the power of sunlight. Dr. Yimin Wu, a professor at the university, shared their inspiring vision, saying, “Our goal was to solve the plastic pollution challenge by changing microplastic waste into high-value products using sunlight.” This mission is especially significant as plastic waste, particularly microplastics, has spread across ecosystems worldwide, raising serious concerns about its impact on both wildlife and human health. With global plastic recycling rates still falling behind, this research team has stepped up to the challenge. They have developed a bio-inspired photocatalysis (光催化) method using special iron atoms (铁原子). This technology copies how certain fungi (真菌) break down organic matter, showing the creativity of nature. When placed under sunlight, the material drives a series of chemical reactions that change plastic into acetic acid with high selectivity. The reaction takes place in water, which is particularly important for addressing plastic pollution in waters. The study shows that this method can effectively produce acetic acid from common plastics and it works well even with mixed plastic types. This adaptability makes the approach a promising replacement to traditional plastic burning, supporting eco-friendly use of materials and offering a fresh strategy for upcycling. Roy Brouwer, coauthor of the research, stresses the benefits of this innovation, noting, “In terms of business and society, the financial and economic benefits related to this innovation seem promising.” The research findings also open up exciting new ways for directly addressing microplastics. By breaking down plastics at the chemical level, this process could play an important role in preventing the build-up of microplastics in our water systems. While still at the laboratory stage, the team expects that this approach could be adapted for large-scale, broader environmental cleanup and the photocatalytic upcycling system can be further improved. 32．What led the research team to start their study originally? A．Rising recycling rates of plastic. B．Business profits from acetic acid. C．Discovery of sunlight’s chemical power. D．Plastic pollution’s widespread harm. 33．What can we learn about the photocatalysis method? A．It can be applied to various plastics. B．It can completely remove microplastics. C．It breaks down plastics faster than burning. D．It needs high temperatures to support reactions. 34．What does the team expect of their research findings? A．Helping reduce chemical use. B．Coming into use immediately. C．Being used on a larger scale. D．Opening up a market for acetic acid. 35．Where is the text most probably taken from? A．A guidebook to waste treatment. B．A scientific research report. C．A brochure on acetic acid production. D．A review on the plastic industry. 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，并在答题卡上将该项 涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。 The first time I swam at night was in the sea, just off the beach in Dover. I was in my mid-20s, training with a group of strangers for a Channel relay (英吉利海峡接力赛). Back then, I didn’t like the dark on land, and if something touched my leg in the water, I would get really frightened. Naturally, the dark sea just made me especially nervous. However, because I knew how much this chance meant, I tried to hide my fear and get on with it. 36 But inside, my heart raced. What I remember is unclear: the brown water of that coastline and the red and green lights hanging from our goggles (护目镜). There were no clear conversations or details I can remember. 37 Just unclear moments and nerves. And yet, some of my most powerful, emotional swims since then have been in the dark. 38 It was early summer and my friend Amanda encouraged me to come along for a night swim in the hope of seeing them. I had no idea what to expect. The experience was amazing. I walked into the water and trusted the people near me. After a few minutes, when I started swimming, I saw a line of sparkling (闪烁的) lights in the water. It took my breath away. Every move made lights appear. It felt like magic. The lights stayed and every time I moved, I saw more shining lights. It was unusual and quietly extraordinary. 39 It may seem strange to invite you into darkness in May just as the days lengthen and light stays further into the evening. 40 Whether you are planning your first night swim or training for a long and difficult challenge, I hope you can discover the magic that waits after sunset. A．Outwardly I put on a brave face. B．I can’t think of any beauty or joy. C．The other swimmers seemed calm and confident. D．But this is a beautiful time to experiment and play. E．My friend Amanda had been swimming at night for years. F．One of my favorite swimming memories was looking for sea lights. G．It is a gift from the wild that feels almost unreal until you actually experience it. 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，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C 和 D 四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 My dad worked as a used car salesman 28 years ago.

We kept 52 , and my dad didn’t say a word. I was still 53 at what I had just seen. I had always been told not to pick up hitch-hikers, but my dad did it every time he saw one. While 54 that experience, I came to understand that one small 55 of kindness could make a difference. 41．A．run B．point C．head D．apply 42．A．wash B．repair C．test D．sell 43．A．noticed B．called C．pushed D．saved 44．A．rose B．stopped C．forgot D．hid 45．A．books B．meals C．stories D．gifts 46．A．waited for B．looked across C．tripped over D．occurred to 47．A．changing B．working C．missing D．striking 48．A．honest B．positive C．curious D．quiet 49．A．shop B．bank C．pocket D．desk 50．A．survived B．disappeared C．waved D．smiled 51．A．fear B．hope C．doubt D．patience 52．A．thinking B．resting C．driving D．talking 53．A．excited B．surprised C．skilled D．relaxed 54．A．reflecting on B．passing down C．handing in D．giving up 55．A．word B．reply C．trick D．act 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，并将答案填写在答题卡上。 The Million Pound Bank Note is a famous story by Mark Twain, one of the greatest figures in American literature, known for his humor and social criticism. The story is 56 ironic masterpiece on Wealth and Human Nature, 57 (explore) the absurd power of money through the journey of Henry Adams, a penniless American 58 (stick) in London. Two wealthy brothers, Roderick and Oliver, had an 59 (argue) on whether a man can survive for a month only with a million-pound note. Henry, landing in Britain accidentally, was chosen as their “experiment subject”. He received the note but was forbidden to open the accompanying letter explaining its purpose. In Act 1, Scene 3, Henry’s despair contrasts with the brothers’ amusement. His honesty about having no money 60 (delight) them, and the letter’s secrecy means society’s blind faith 61 wealth. Act 2, Scene 1 brilliantly illustrates the irony. When Henry visits a tailor shop, the clerks ignore him because his coat is 62 (wear). But when he shows the million-pound note, their attitudes change 63 (complete). This scene makes fun of how people judge others by their wealth instead of their character. Money doesn’t always indicate a person’s true value. We should respect people not because of what they own 64 because of who they are. Through Henry’s adventure, Twain helps us look beyond money and challenges readers 65 (reflect) on what truly defines a person’s worth. 第四部分 写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 假设你是校学生会主席李华，你校正在筹备“健康校园周”(Health Campus Week)活动。请你以学生会的名义，为校英文报写一封倡议信，号召全校同学积极参与，共同养成健康的生活习惯。内容包括：1.发出倡议；2.提出如何健康生活的具体建议。 注意：1.写作词数应为80个左右；2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数；3.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear fellow students, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The Student Union 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 My elder brother and I were on a vacation, and one morning he excitedly shared with me that there was a hidden lake atop a mountain nearby. It had always been on his wish list to see this lake, and he wanted us to make the hike to reach it. The trail was a 10-mile round trip, rated as a difficult hike. The moment I heard this, my heart sank, and panic began to set in, as I feared I wouldn’t have the energy to make it to the top. I hadn’t been very active recently and couldn’t shake the belief, that with academic pressure and workload growing heavier, comes a natural decline in energy and motivation. Nonetheless, early the next morning, we set off, eager to make this dream a reality. The difficulty was apparent from the start. The route was steep, and my body protested with every step. About halfway up, we encountered another brother and sister who had decided to turn back, clearly discouraged by the difficulty of the route. I noticed the brother’s disappointed expression, and something in me shifted. I couldn’t bear the thought of giving up. Right then, I made up my mind that I would press on, no matter how tough it got. As we continued on, a surprising thing happened. Instead of focusing on how difficult the hike was, I found myself appreciating the beauty of the surrounding landscape. Each step through the woods felt like a journey into a timeless world, where the heavy burden and stress from study seemed to disappear, replaced by the timeless rhythms of nature. My brother and I chatted as we walked, and I realized how much joy I found in the simple pleasure of his company. What had seemed like an unattainable goal had transformed into a source of personal fulfillment and connection with nature and my brother. 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。 However, the hike wasn’t without its challenges. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Finally, after hours of hard work, we made it to the top. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司1 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
