A primary concern over an aging population is how it affects the working-age population ratio (比例), the portion of the population in the 15-64 age range. In developed economies, the working-age population ratio reached a plateau of around 67% from 1985 to the early 2000s but has since dropped to 63% and is projected to fall to 57% by 2075. How much longer do people need to work to offset (抵消) the effects of population aging? For developed economies, offsetting the peak-to-trough decline in the working-age population ratio would require a 15% increase in the average effective working life between 2000 and 2075. The good news is that this transition is already well underway. The researchers find that since 2000, average working lives of developed market have already increased by about 12%. The result is that, despite longer life expectancy and declining working-age population ratios, the average share of life spent actively participating in the labor market has actually risen, from about 44% to about 47%. Several factors have contributed to this increase, including a shift away from manual jobs — where early retirement is more common — and rising female participation in the workforce after childbirth. “While raising official retirement ages can help address the financial challenges of government pensions in an era of growing life expectancy, it doesn’t seem to be an essential requirement for people to extend their working lives,” said Kevin Daly at Goldman Sachs Research. 21. What is the main concern mentioned in the text? A. The increase in population. B. The early retirement of workers. C. The influence of population aging. D. The downturn in developed economies. 22. What was the duration of working life in 2022? A. About 36 years. B. About 37 years. C. About 38 years. D. About 39 years. 23. Why do the governments raise the official retirement ages? A. To increase the income of the elderly. B. To deal with the financial challenges. C. To eliminate the concerns about aging. D. To improve seniors’ sense of achievement. B Long before Rafael Contreras opened the Beau Ideal interior-design showroom in Westfield, he hosted pop-up sales out of a re-imagined Pepperidge Farm bakery truck. Contreras, who lives in Metuchen, also spent a short time as a soap and candle sales representative, cruising the Tri-State Area and picking up vintage (古色古香的) finds along the way. Several years later, he began searching for a traditional storage area for all the treasures he had collected. Soon, his artful vision caught the attention of interior designers, and the search for a space began. It took two years to discover the perfect showroom, just two blocks from Westfield’s downtown. With natural light and white walls, the space offered a blank canvas ready for Contreras to add his distinctive style. Contreras chose the name “Beau Ideal”, which is from the French expression for “the ideal beauty”, to inspire people to bring style and personality into living spaces through vintage and antique items that are as functional as they are appealing. “My shop exhibits storied vintage finds, crafted with intention, quality and design in mind,” Contreras says. When sourcing irresistibly stylish objects, Contreras is always on the lookout for items that turn heads. “There’s no place I won’t go to acquire rare finds, and I love bringing them home to be cleaned, polished and, sometimes, renovated,” he says. Walking into the shop, people will find everything from 1960s abstract expressionist artwork to a 1970s Italian Murano chandelier (吊灯) to furniture that echoes Hollywood’s Golden Age. “I especially look for standout pieces with sculptural details and clean lines,” he says. “They’re like jewelry for your space. I believe that a home should reveal emotion and reflect the owner’s personality.” Contreras, whose family moved from Colombia to Sayreville when he was a child, once dreamed of becoming a doctor. But over time, that path gave way to a different calling. “My business and my collecting are my deepest passions now,” he says. 24. What did Contreras gain from his past job? A. Artistic taste. B. Financial awareness. C. Interest in designing. D. New sales techniques. 25. Why did Contreras name his showroom “Beau Ideal”? A. To appreciate French art. B. To appeal for more donations. C. To share his vision of beauty. D. To highlight the functions of the exhibits. 26. What will people experience in the shop? A. A sense of purpose. B. The richness of history. C. A warm family atmosphere. D. An outlook on modern life. 27. What does Contreras’s story indicate? A. Art is the science of living. B. Never think you are above your work. C. Passion is the driving force behind success. D. Childhood dreams often lead to future careers. C If you’re a parent or guardian, you must have heard about the importance of respecting your child’s feelings. Teaching our kids this can help them work through the negative emotions they experience as they grow up. But what about your feelings as a parent? Hilary Jacobs Hendel, a licensed clinical social worker and psychotherapist, and Dr Juli Fraga, a psychologist and parenting educator, flip the script in their new book, Parents Have Feelings, Too. Together, they teach parents how to face and move through their own emotions so they can raise emotionally healthy children. “Emotions affect us every day and often get us into trouble, and they have huge repercussions for how we understand emotions of future generations,” Hendel said. A lot of people have never considered their feelings, and they don’t even acknowledge they have emotions, believing that emotions are under their conscious control, if they are tough enough. But we have emotions to help us survive. They are rapid-action programs for movement. Think about it: If a lion were to burst into the room where you are right now, you’d run before your thinking brain could say, “Oh, here comes a lion. Run!” The purpose of an emotion is to make us move in adaptive ways. As a parent, understanding how to navigate your emotions can change the whole direction of an interaction with your child. It can open your heart to a greater connection with them because you better understand how emotions work in their body. Understanding your child’s emotional state better also helps you be less triggered (触发) by the defense they might use, like rolling their eyes or being rude. You need to keep establishing these open doors for connection and secure attachment so your kids will come talk to you as a parent and know you are a safe haven. We have to understand how to avoid unintentionally shaming our kids and causing anxiety. The ability to work through our emotions is one of the best things we can do for our kids. Think of it as the bread and butter of wellness. When we can navigate our own emotions, we raise kids who can do the same. 28. In what aspect do Hendel and Fraga instruct parents in their new book? A. Tips on reading psychological books. B. Strategies to raise intelligent children. C. Methods of handling children’s emotions. D. Approaches to managing parents’ own emotions. 29. What does the underlined word “repercussions” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Emotional values. B. Immediate responses. C. Social benefits. D. Lasting consequences. 30. How does the author prove our unconscious emotions? A. By giving an example. B. By defining a concept. C. By providing statistics. D. By making a comparison. 31. What is implied in the text? A. Emotions promote kids’ growth. B. Bread and butter ensures happiness. C. Parents model emotional regulation. D. Kids shouldn’t hide feelings from parents. D The fur and scales of the animal kingdom are far from boring and full of wild colors and patterns. But how do animals get their spots, stripes (条纹), and everything in between? In 1952, British mathematician Alan Turing proposed that as tissue develops, it generates chemical substances that move about, similar to how white milk spreads when it is poured into black coffee. In Turing’s theory, chemicals interact with pigment (色素) cells to form spots and the blank spaces in between them. However, computer simulations based on Turing’s idea created spots that were less distinct than those found in nature. In 2023, University of Colorado Boulder chemical engineer Ankur Gupta and his collaborators improved upon Turing’s theory by adding another mechanism called diffusiophoresis. This is a process where diffusing (扩散) particles pull other particles along with them. Gupta turned to the purple-and-black hexagon (六边形) pattern seen on a boxfish, a bright species found off the coast of Australia, as a test. He found that diffusiophoresis could generate patterns with sharper outlines than Turing’s original model, but these results were just too perfect. All of the hexagons were the same size and shape. In nature, no pattern is perfect. For example, a zebra’s black stripes vary in thickness. So Gupta’s team sought out to refine their theory. In a new study, Gupta’s team detailed how they were able to recreate the imperfect patterns and texture. After giving individual cells defined sizes and then modelling how each one moved through tissue, the simulations began to make less uniform patterns. It’s similar to how balls of different sizes would move through a tube. The larger ones like a basketball or bowling ball would create thicker outlines than golf balls or ping-pong balls. It’s the same with cells — when bigger cells gather, they make broader patterns. If the same balls traveling in a tube bump into one another and block it, a continuous line of flow will break up. When cells experience that same traffic jam, the result is the breaks in the stripes. Understanding how pattern-making cells assemble could help engineers develop materials that can change colors based on their environment. It may also help create more effective approaches to delivering medicine to a specific part of the body. 32. How were the computer simulations based on Turing’s idea? A. They failed to present sharp and clear spots. B. They could create distinct natural spots. C. They hardly formed hexagonal patterns. D. They could generate perfect patterns. 33. Why did Gupta’s team decide to improve their theory? A. To generate more hexagons. B. To recreate imperfect patterns. C. To remove the breaks in between the stripes. D. To assist engineers to develop new materials. 34. What is a potential use of the findings of Gupta’s team? A. To recognize animals. B. To help cure diseases. C. To design original patterns. D. To deal with traffic jams. 35. What can be the best title for the text? A. Whose theory on animals is better? B. How do animals change their colors? C. Why do animals have spots and stripes? D. What is imperfect about animals’ spots and stripes? 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。 Why Do We Love Fall So Much? The autumn equinox (秋分) marks the first official day of fall. Some parts of the country are welcoming the most striking symbols of the season: colorful leaves, sweater weather, and pumpkin spice in everything. Fall stimulates our senses. Every season has its own positive associations, but fall happens to be an especially rich sensory experience — think golden sunlight hitting the maple leaves, the sound of leaves crunching underfoot, or even the scents of damp soil in the air. “ 36 They make us feel cozy, calm, and nostalgic (怀旧的),” says Dr Albers, a Cleveland Clinic psychologist. Fall is short. Because fall is a transitional time between summer and winter, we also view it as more transitory. Thanks to the “rarity effect”, we tend to place higher value on things we can’t have all the time. 37 Fall provides stability and routine. For families with children, returning to school in the fall also provides a sense of predictability and routine. Dr Albers says that during the fall, kids tend to return to their set schedules. 38 Fall weather makes it easier to get outdoors. A blazing summer sun may keep people indoors. 39 “The outdoor activity raises the oxygen level in our brains, which helps us to think clearer and feel calmer,” Dr Albers says. 40 Cooler temperatures and an earlier sunset may promote a more comfortable room and a more reliable bedtime routine — increasing our odds of getting the seven to nine hours of sleep we need. A. Fall also helps us sleep better. B. That may make us feel even more attached to it. C. Fall also provides suitable environment for planting. D. We can buy more seasonal products during this period. E. These sights and sounds help the brain release dopamine. F. And all of us tend to grow better with a little extra structure in our lives. G. But fall’s milder temperatures lend themselves to spending time outside. 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。 A lot of my friends had a fairly straight career path.

The Xue-shan-mu-chang 15-meter SubMillimeter Telescope (XSMT) will be located in the city of Delingha, Qinghai Province, at an altitude of 4,800 meters. The project is scheduled 58 (complete) in 2027. Designed with a 15-meter aperture (孔径), the XSMT will support high-frequency submillimeter wave (亚毫米波) observations. While traditional optical telescopes cannot see through the dust of the universe, submillimeter wave facilities can not only reveal the laws of galaxy formation and evolution 59 also trace the origins of life-related molecules, 60 is a process that plays a crucial role in studying the formation of stars and planets. 61 the atmospheric water vapor content above the site should remain low and stable is one of the strict requirements for site conditions in submillimeter wave observations. The site of the telescope is located in the heart of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, known as “the roof of the world”, featuring conditions such as high altitude, 62 (minimum) human interference and extremely low water vapor, making it 63 ideal location for observations. China lacks self-built and 64 (regular) operational observation facilities in the field of submillimeter wave astronomy. Upon its 65 (conclude) in 2027, the XSMT will fill this gap. 第四部分 写作（共两节，满分40分） 第一节（满分15分） 假定你是校英文报编辑李华，外教Chris上季度给英语口语专栏投递的几篇文章已刊出，你正为他核算稿费，请你给Chris写一封邮件，内容包括： （1）请他提供收款方式； （2）希望他继续支持该专栏。 注意： （1）写作词数应为80个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 Dear Chris, ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours sincerely, Li Hua 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。 Emma loved singing, but she was very shy. She often sang only when she was alone in her room. John, her best friend, believed in her and often said, “Your voice is wonderful. Don’t hide it.” When the school announced a talent show, John pushed her to join. Emma shook her head many times, but in the end, she signed up for the talent show. For the next two weeks, Emma practiced every night. She stood in front of the mirror, holding a hairbrush as if it were a microphone. At first, her voice was soft and unsteady, but little by little it grew clearer. Still, every time she thought about standing in front of a large crowd, her hands began to sweat and her stomach felt tight. Finally, the day of the show arrived. The school hall was full of students, teachers, and parents. The air was filled with noise and excitement. Backstage, Emma’s heart beat so fast that she thought others could hear it. She held the microphone tightly, her knees shaking. When her name was called, she walked out into the bright lights, which were so strong that she could hardly see the audience. The music started, but then something went wrong. The sound system suddenly failed, and the hall became completely silent. A murmur spread through the crowd. Emma froze, her throat dry, her hands cold. Her first thought was to turn and run away. Then she saw her best friend John in the front row. Her friend was smiling and mouthing the words, “You can do it.” Emma’s fear battled with her wish to sing. She knew that if she walked away now, she would regret it in the future. The hall was waiting. All eyes were on her. Emma knew the moment of decision had come. Emma opened her mouth and began to sing. 注意： （1）续写词数应为150个左右； （2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 At first, her voice was low and shaking. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ When she finished, the hall was still silent. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 英语参考答案 听力部分录音材料 (Text 1) W: Excuse me, can we change the route?

M: Definitely. Barcelona is a great example. The flood of tourists has caused issues like rising living costs for locals. W: Are there any efforts to address the problems? M: Yes, there are. For example, Venice is trying to control tourist numbers by setting visitor limits. Some other places such as Amsterdam and Bali are encouraging tourists to other nearby spots. W: They’re good approaches. How can travelers make a positive difference? M: Travelers can play a big role! By avoiding popular destinations, we can help ease the pressure on those spots. W: That makes sense. And another simple but powerful way is to travel during off-peak seasons. (Text 10) M: Here is the latest news. A violin sold for $11.25 million in Boston on Friday, yet it fell short of a record. The price started at $8 million. Offers quickly rose to $10 million. The violin was built by Antonio Stradivari in 1714 in Cremona, Italy. It was most notable for having been played for decades by Joseph Joachim, one of the most famous Hungarian violinists of the 19th century. It was acquired by violinist Si-Hon Ma in 1967, whose estate manager donated it to the New England Conservatory after his death. The Conservatory, which has had the violin for the last decade, said the sale profits will go toward a scholarship program. “The sale is meant for future students, and we will use the income to establish the largest named scholarship at the New England Conservatory,” the Conservatory’s president said. The record for the biggest sum paid for a musical instrument at auction remains with the “Lady Blunt” Stradivarius, made in 1721, which got about $15.9 million in 2011. 试题答案 第一部分 听力 1～5 AABCC 6～10 ABBCC 11～15 ABBCA 16～20 CCABB 第二部分 阅读 第一节 A 21.

Her voice rose, clear and pure, filling the hall. The silence of the audience only made her stronger. Every note carried her heart, and the fear melted away. By the time she reached the final line, she had sung with a voice of astonishing power and breathtaking beauty. When she finished, the hall was still silent. Emma’s stomach twisted. Had she failed? Then the audience erupted into applause, louder than she had ever imagined. Teachers nodded with pride, and her classmates jumped to their feet. John waved wildly, shouting her name. Emma bowed, her cheeks red but her eyes shining. She realized the real victory was not the applause, but the courage she had found within herself. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
