W: Since you like volunteer work so much, why didn’t you work in a charity organization? M: When I was in college, I had dreams of helping others in need.

Amanda, my daughter, was upset to see animals in cages and my son Mike kept crying because he was not allowed to feed them. M: Oh dear, but I guess you can’t blame them. City zoos aren’t very nice places for kids to learn about wild animals. W: Exactly! I am thinking of taking them to a wildlife park next time, where the animals are kept in large areas, though the admission fee could be higher. M: That’s true. Watching nature documentaries is also very helpful before the visit. I remember watching some incredible nature shows on TV when I was a kid. I felt like I was right there with the animals in their natural habitat. W: That sounds like a good idea! Thank you for your suggestion. 听下面一段独白，回答以下小题。【此处可播放相关音频，请去附件查看】 17.

In 6 days. B. In 6 months. C. In 16 months. 20. Who is the speaker talking to? A. Close friends. B. The book’s author. C. Club members. 【答案】17. A 18. C 19. B 20. C 【解析】 【原文】Good morning, everyone. I’m a new member of this book club. Today I’d like to share a really valuable book with you. Last year, I had a job interview in the capital, and since the commute was quite long, I wanted to make good use of that time — so I picked up a book before boarding the train. The one I bought is called Atomic Habits, and I was totally absorbed in it during the journey. The core idea of this book revolves around daily habits. It argues that big life changes don’t have to come from dramatic overhauls — instead, replacing bad habits with small, positive ones can make a huge difference. Specifically, it points out that a 1% daily improvement adds up to a 37% performance boost by the end of a year. That idea really gave me hope and made life more motivating. After reading it, I even achieved my long-awaited goals in just six months! If any of you here haven’t read it yet but want to make positive changes in your life, I highly recommend giving it a try. 二部分 阅读理解（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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A With the tallest mountains in the United Kingdom and home to the legendary Loch Ness, the Scottish Highlands have good reason to make someone’s travel bucket list. The best way to see the Scottish Highlands is by train, where you can take in the rolling hills and mystical lochs (湖) from the comfort of your seat. Here are the most popular routes to exploring the Scottish Highlands by train: Loch Ness: 3 hours, 18 minutes by train For those seeking out the legendary Loch Ness monster, Inverness is the closest train station to the famous loch. From the station, travelers can take a bus or taxi to Fort Augustus and board a boat tour to try to spot the creature. As Scotland’s second-largest loch, Loch Ness is a great place to fish or kayak. Fort William and Mallaig: over 5 hours by train Although a long train ride, the trip from Edinburgh to Mallaig, a charming fishing village, is worth it. This route offers some of the best scenery in the world. Travelers can board the 19th-century-inspired Jacobite Steam Train and wind past charming villages, the Morar River and beaches. Ben Nevis: over 5 hours by train Ben Nevis is an ancient volcano that exploded and collapsed on itself to become the tallest mountain in the British Isles. Travelers can take the train to Fort William, a town offering castles, and rugged coastlines along the West Highlands Peninsula. The town is also known as the “Outdoor Capital” of Scotland, so thrill-seekers can go skiing and hiking to their heart’s desire. 21. What can travelers do at Loch Ness? A. Explore the area on foot. B. Discover hidden villages. C. Take a kayaking adventure. D. Take a guided tour of castles. 22. What makes the route to Mallaig special? A. It allows visitors to hike. B. Its duration is relatively short. C. It has a mysterious creature in the village. D. It offers some of the world’s best scenery. 23. What is the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To describe some historical places. B. To show popular train routes. C. To highlight the convenience of trains. D. To suggest some adventurous activities. 【答案】21. C 22. D 23. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文，介绍了几条通过火车游览苏格兰高地的流行路线及其特色活动。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据Loch Ness部分中的“Loch Ness is a great place to fish or kayak(尼斯湖是一个钓鱼或划皮艇的好地方)”可知，尼斯湖是来一次皮划艇冒险的好地方，故选C。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Fort William and Mallaig部分中的“This route offers some of the best scenery in the world(这条路线提供了世界上一些最好的风景)”可知，前往Mallaig的路线提供了世界上一些最佳的风景，故选D。 【23题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段中“Here are the most popular routes to exploring the Scottish Highlands by train(以下是乘坐火车探索苏格兰高地最受欢迎的路线)”可知，作者写这篇文章的目的是介绍通过火车游览苏格兰高地的几条流行路线，并推荐了相关的活动，故选B。 B “Noooo!” His scream echoed down the hall. “Go put on your shoes. I don’t want to ask you again.” “I don’t want to!” I sighed loudly as I prepared myself for yet another argument. My five-year-old had been pushing all my buttons for weeks. He was easily annoyed and unwilling to follow the simplest requests. On top of that, he was incredibly needy even though we were spending almost every day together. I felt like our relationship was really struggling. It was one of those seasons in parenting when I was at a complete loss for what to do next, even though I knew something had to change. It was during this time of desperately searching for some solution, when a parenting webinar (网络研讨会) led me to Dr. Laura Markham and her book, Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids: How to Stop Yelling and Start Connecting. The title immediately caught my eye. I longed for a peace-filled home, and of course I wanted happy kids. What parent doesn’t? Great frustration had me yelling way more than I ever imagined I would, and I knew the connection with my son was suffering greatly as a result. This book couldn’t arrive fast enough! I dove right in, and when I read the section about spending special time with kids, a light bulb (灯泡) went off. According to Dr. Markham, special time is simply time that you spend one-on-one, focusing completely on your child. I realized although my son was around me for a significant part of each day, we often weren’t spending quality one-on-one time together. With his little brother to care for, along with the general busyness of life, I just wasn’t paying enough attention to him. His neediness that, at times, was exhausting was a clue. His angry mood? Also clues. I was not giving him the connection time that he needed. I didn’t know if having special time with my son was going to bring harmony back to our relationship, but I was eager to give it a shot. 24. Which of the following led to the arguments between the author and her son? A. They spent little time together. B. They had too many disagreements. C. The author was too strict with her son. D. The author failed to satisfy her son’s needs. 25. How did the author feel when coming across Dr. Markham’s book? A. Puzzled. B. Astonished. C. Hopeful. D. Regretful. 26. What does Dr. Markham think is the key to special time with kids? A. Long duration. B. Full attention. C. Various activities. D. Peaceful mood. 27. What did the author decide to do in the end? A. Spend quality time with her son. B. Be more tolerant towards her son. C. Balance her busy life with her family. D. Seek more advice from Dr. Markham. 【答案】24. D 25. C 26. B 27. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了作者和五岁儿子冲突不断，在育儿书籍的启发下，意识到要给予孩子高质量一对一陪伴的故事。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“His neediness that, at times, was exhausting was a clue. His angry mood? Also clues. I was not giving him the connection time that he needed. (他那有时让人疲惫的黏人是一个线索。他易怒的情绪？也是线索。我没有给予他所需要的情感联结时间)”可知，作者没有满足儿子的需求，这引发了母子之间的争吵。 【25题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I longed for a peace-filled home, and of course I wanted happy kids. (我渴望一个充满安宁的家，当然我也想要快乐的孩子)”以及“This book couldn’t arrive fast enough! (我巴不得这本书快点送到)”可知，读到这本书时作者内心满怀希望。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“According to Dr. Markham, special time is simply time that you spend one-on-one, focusing completely on your child. (Markham博士认为，专属时光就是一对一、把全部注意力放在孩子身上的时间)”可知，和孩子度过专属时光的关键是全身心投入、充分关注孩子。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“I didn’t know if having special time with my son was going to bring harmony back to our relationship, but I was eager to give it a shot. (我不知道和儿子共度专属时光是否能让我们的关系重回融洽，但我很想试一试)”可知，作者最后决定花高质量的专属时光陪伴儿子。 C We’ve all had those awkward moments: heading upstairs only to wonder what on earth you came for, drawing a blank when trying to name someone you know, or even discovering your car keys tucked away inside the fridge. These brief memory failures may make us uneasy, yet they are just a natural part of ageing. Cognitive neuroscientist Ulman Lindenberger explains that episodic (情景的) memory, which keeps track of events, places and time, inevitably declines as people grow older. This trend becomes noticeable after the age of 60 and disrupts the whole process of memory operation. It arises from physical changes in the brain that start in middle age: the neural protective coating degrades, links between different brain regions weaken, and the hippocampus (海马体), key to new memory formation, shrinks. Besides, most casual memory failures actually stem from low concentration caused by distraction or stress. The real challenge lies in telling normal ageing-related memory loss apart from serious cognitive issues. Doctors warn that persistent forgetfulness disturbing daily routines, such as missing important appointments repeatedly, should arouse our concern. Frequent unconscious repetition in talks is another warning sign, which may indicate mild cognitive impairment or early dementia, for the affected brain parts can no longer build new memories of recent experiences. What makes judgement even harder is that no clear boundary divides normal memory decline and dementia (痴呆症). Negative emotions, menopause (更年期) and certain drugs can also temporarily weaken people’s cognitive ability. Moreover, seniors haunted by fear of dementia often overinterpret minor memory slips, which creates extra harm to their health. Since even experts find it hard to distinguish the two cases, we should turn to professionals once memory fades rapidly and gets in the way of daily life. 28. Which of the scenes represents the phenomenon mentioned? A. A person just went out without bringing his keys. B. Old friends meet but can’t recall each other’s names. C. A woman forgets whether she watered the plants today. D. Going out with friends and not knowing what to buy. 29. What does the underlined words “inevitably” mean? A. Naturally. B. Unavoidably. C. Suddenly. D. Sharply. 30. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. Memory decline exhibits a specific correlation with cognitive impairment. B. Elderly people tend to forget daily tasks and plans with forgetfulness. C. Frequent unconscious repetition is a symptom of early dementia. D. The damaged brain regions cannot self-repair by forming new memories. 31. What will the article discuss next? A. Clarify the definition of short-term memory loss. B. Further research into causes of short-term memory loss. C. Proper attitudes toward short-term memory loss. D. Expert opinions on temporary memory lapses. 【答案】28. B 29. B 30. C 31. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了与年龄相关的正常记忆衰退与严重认知问题之间的区别，以及如何区分它们。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段中“We’ve all had those awkward moments: heading upstairs only to wonder what on earth you came for, drawing a blank when trying to name someone you know, or even discovering your car keys tucked away inside the fridge. These brief memory failures may make us uneasy, yet they are just a natural part of ageing. (我们都经历过这样的尴尬时刻：上楼后却想不起自己到底来干什么；想叫出某个熟人的名字时却大脑一片空白；甚至发现车钥匙被塞在了冰箱里。这些短暂的失忆可能会让我们感到不安，但它们只是衰老的自然过程的一部分。)”可知，老友相见却想不起对方的名字这种短暂的失忆属于文章中提及的现象。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Cognitive neuroscientist Ulman Lindenberger explains that episodic (情景的) memory, which keeps track of events, places and time, inevitably declines as people grow older. (认知神经科学家Ulman Lindenberger解释说，情景记忆，即记录事件、地点和时间的记忆，会随着人们年龄的增长而inevitably衰退。)”以及后文“This trend becomes noticeable after the age of 60 (这种趋势在60岁之后变得明显)”可知，随着人们年龄增长，情景记忆衰退是不可避免的。故划线词意为“不可避免地”，与“Unavoidably”同义。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“Frequent unconscious repetition in talks is another warning sign, which may indicate mild cognitive impairment or early dementia (谈话中频繁无意识地重复是另一个警示信号，这可能表明轻度认知障碍或早期痴呆)”可知，频繁无意识地重复是早期痴呆的症状之一。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“Since even experts find it hard to distinguish the two cases, we should turn to professionals once memory fades rapidly and gets in the way of daily life. (因为即使是专家也很难区分这两种情况，一旦记忆力迅速下降并影响日常生活，我们就应该寻求专业人士的帮助。)”可知，文章最后指出应寻求专业帮助，接下来可能讨论如何正确应对记忆力衰退。 D Whenever I complained that I was bored, my mother would not hand me a phone or switch on the television. Instead she would move from shelf to shelf, and return with some books in her arms. She would sit on the edge of my bed, describing each in a few words. My mother used books as a form of communication. It wasn’t simply the exchange I’ve just described — her giving me books she’d read and loved as a child, and hoping I would love them too — but the words in the books themselves. If we drove towards the Gladesville Bridge at night, the lights of cars streaming down, she would quote her favourite poet, who described headlights on the bridge as "the immaculate sigh of stars". To her, books gave voice to what she noticed. My mother’s gift for noticing small moments reflected an important quality: she deeply valued sensory details. She was always pointing them out to me, like young ducks, the fluff (绒毛) all over their bodies pale yellow, as though they wore bath towels. I didn’t realise it then, but those moments were quietly shaping the way I would later understand the world. Now as a literature teacher, I value sensory details as well. I often find myself encouraging my students to notice them, just as my mother once encouraged me. When talking about the Harry Potter series, I ask my students to consider whether it’s the lists of richly imagined foods, the all-flavour jellybeans and the butter beer that are the books’ real attraction. Only now do I realise how much of my mother I carry with me. What stays with me is not the titles she chose or the quotes she gave, but the habit of looking closely at the world. Borrowing lines from the books to describe our own lives, we’re adding depth to what we’ve seen or felt or heard. 32. What did the mother use to relieve the writer’s boredom? A. Television. B. Phones. C. Books. D. Food. 33. Why did the mother quote “the immaculate sigh of stars”? A. To vividly describe a small moment. B. To briefly explain a bridge structure. C. To express her love for the universe. D. To talk about her most beloved poet. 34. What does the writer emphasize in her teaching? A. Challenging literary classics. B. Paying mindful attention to details. C. Quoting the Harry Potter series. D. Developing creative imagination. 35. What does the writer learn from her mother? A. Poetic writing techniques. B. Vital communication skills. C. A method of self-reflection. D. A habit of close observation. 【答案】32. C 33. A 34. B 35. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者的母亲从小用书籍与作者交流，引导作者关注生活中的感官细节，而这些经历深刻地影响了作者，使作者成为文学教师后也将这种细致观察世界的习惯传递给了自己的学生。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“When I complained that I was bored, my mother would not hand me a phone or switch on the television. Instead she would move from shelf to shelf, and return with some books in her arms.(每当我抱怨无聊时，我妈妈不会递给我手机或打开电视。相反，她会从一个书架走到另一个书架，抱回一些书。)”可知，妈妈用书籍来缓解作者的无聊。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“If we drove towards the Gladesville Bridge at night, the lights of cars streaming down, she would quote her favourite poet, who described headlights on the bridge as "the immaculate sigh of stars". To her, books gave voice to what she noticed. (如果我们在夜晚开车驶向Gladesville大桥，车灯如流水般倾泻而下，她会引用她最喜欢的诗人的话，将桥上的车灯描述为“星星完美的叹息”。对她来说，书籍赋予了她所注意到的一切以声音。)”可知，母亲引用她最喜欢的诗人的话，将桥上的车灯描述为“星星完美的叹息”，对母亲来说，书籍赋予了她所注意到的一切以声音，可推理出妈妈引用这句话是为了用诗意而生动的方式描述车灯在桥上流动的那一瞬间，即生动地描绘一个微小的瞬间。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Now as a literature teacher, I value sensory details as well. I often find myself encouraging my students to notice them, just as my mother once encouraged me. (现在作为一名文学教师，我也重视感官细节。我经常发现自己在鼓励学生去关注它们，就像我妈妈曾经鼓励我一样。)”可知，作者在教学中强调的是让学生用心关注细节。 【35题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“What stays with me is not the titles she chose or the quotes she gave, but the habit of looking closely at the world.(留在我心中的不是她选择的书名或她引用的话，而是仔细观察世界的习惯。)”可知，作者从母亲那里学到的是一种仔细观察的习惯。 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。 Generosity is like the circulation of blood — healthiest and vibrant when flowing in both directions. In my youth, I knew an elderly relative whose kindness seemed boundless: she arrived with thoughtful gifts, cooked favorite meals, and sat by sickbeds with chicken soup. Yet she rigidly refused all favors, even a glass of water. “I give, but don’t take,” she’d say proudly. ____36____ Scientific research confirms the mutual joy of giving and receiving. In one experiment, participants performing small acts of kindness—holding doors, feeding parking meters, or gifting snacks — bring forth genuine “Duchenne smiles” (genuinely happy smiles) from the receivers nearly four times more often than unassisted strangers. ____37____ Similarly, a 2004 study further showed students assigned five weekly acts of kindness maintained higher happiness levels than those who did not engage. Logically, then, one way we can raise others’ well-being is by giving them opportunities to be kind and helpful. In a 2022 study, researchers revealed that people hesitate to ask strangers for help, because they assume this will cause inconvenience and annoy the person. ____38____ They saw it as less trouble, and enjoyed more mood enhancement. Balance, however, is crucial. Demanding excessive help — like asking to live in someone’s home — ruins goodwill. So does offering cash for favors like moving boxes for you. ____39____ To cultivate generosity, start by accepting small offers: a coffee, a helping hand. Then respond. When I once bought a homeless man food, I asked, “Will you pray for my family?” His shock melted into eagerness. This exchange honored his dignity, proving everyone has something to give — whether advice, prayers, or gratitude. Generosity’s true power lies in this circulation: give freely, receive gratefully, and repeat. ____40____ A. This one-sided approach, however, is deeply flawed. B. It promotes relationships only when flowing unblocked. C. Kindness grows on sincerity, not responsibilities or deals. D. The circulation of kindness benefits both givers and receivers. E. An unwillingness to accept kindnesses is a form of selfishness. F. Givers also reported immediate boosts in mood and life satisfaction. G. However, people who responded by helping proved more willing to assist. 【答案】36. A 37. F 38. G 39. C 40. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了给予善意和接受善意之间的联系。 【36题详解】 根据上文“Yet she rigidly refused all favors, even a glass of water. “I give, but don’t take,” she’d say proudly. (然而她拒绝了所有的帮助，甚至是一杯水。“我予而不取”她自豪地说)”和第二段第一句“Scientific research confirms the mutual joy of giving and receiving.(科学研究证实，给予与接受都能带来愉悦)”可知，如果只给予不接受是不完美的。A项“然而，这种片面的做法存在严重缺陷。”符合题意，指出上文“只给予不索取”的片面之处，引出下文关于给予与接受都能带来愉悦的话题。故选A。 【37题详解】 根据上文“In one experiment, participants performing small acts of kindness—holding doors, feeding parking meters, or gifting snacks — bring forth genuine “Duchenne smiles” (genuinely happy smiles) from the receivers nearly four times more often than unassisted strangers.(在一项实验中，参与者做出开门、帮人付停车费或赠送零食等微小善举时，从受助者那里收获真诚的Duchenne smiles（发自内心的开心笑容）的频率，几乎是未提供帮助的陌生人的四倍)”可知，上文描述了做出善举的人会得到受助者发自内心的微笑。由此推知，空处可能继续描述做出善举的人的其他感受。F项“给予者还报告说，他们的情绪和生活满意度会立即得到提升。”符合语境，also表明上下文的并列关系。故选F。 【38题详解】 根据上文“Logically, then, one way we can raise others’ well-being is by giving them opportunities to be kind and helpful. In a 2022 study, researchers revealed that people hesitate to ask strangers for help, because they assume this will cause inconvenience and annoy the person.(因此，从逻辑上讲，我们提高他人幸福感的一种方式是给他们善良和乐于助人的机会。在2022年的一项研究中，研究人员透露，人们在向陌生人寻求帮助时犹豫不决，因为他们认为这会造成不便并惹恼对方)”可知，逻辑上，给他人提高幸福感的一种方式是给他们帮助别人的机会，但研究表明当人们在给陌生人“机会”时会担心给陌生人造成不便。由此推知，空处可能陈述真正的结果是什么。G项“然而，那些以提供帮助作为回应的人，后来表现出了更强的助人意愿。”符合语境，真正的结果是抓住“机会”帮助别人的人表现出了更强的助人意愿。故选G。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Balance, however, is crucial. Demanding excessive help — like asking to live in someone’s home — ruins goodwill. So does offering cash for favors like moving boxes for you. (然而，把握平衡至关重要。索要过多帮助 —— 比如要求住进别人家里 —— 会毁掉对方的善意；而因别人帮你搬箱子这类小事就主动给钱，同样会如此)”可知，过多的索要帮助或者用金钱回报很小的帮助都会破坏善意。由此可知，善意是建立在真诚而非责任或交易之上。C项“善意源于真诚，而非责任或交易。”符合语境。故选C。 【40题详解】 根据上文“Generosity’s true power lies in this circulation: give freely, receive gratefully, and repeat. (慷慨的真正力量在于这种循环：自由地给予，感激地接受，然后重复)”可知，善意是自然地给予以及感激地接受，然后重复，这是一种畅通的循环。因此B项“唯有当善意畅通无阻地流动时，它才能增进人际关系。”符合语境，是对上文内容的自然延续。故选B。 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 When Sarah first arrived in the Caribbean for an infrastructure project, she was met with local skepticism. “People saw us as outsiders with no real care for their lives,” she recalled. The sense of ____41____ grew in her, and her team faced frequent rejections of their plans; community meetings would burst into arguments. One afternoon, Sarah visited a bookstore run by Mrs. Alvarez. They chatted, and the elderly woman mentioned how the old harbor had been the community’s heart — until a storm ____42____ it years ago. “No one’s dared to ____43____ it since,” she said, her voice filled with regret. Sarah saw a chance for the ____44____ of the growing distrust. She asked Mrs. Alvarez to gather a few residents for a casual chat about the harbor’s past. To her ____45____, over fifty people came, ____46____ sharing old photos and memories. That day, Sarah’s team ____47____ their blueprints and just listened. As stories emerged, the community’s ____48____ attitude softened. Residents offered suggestions, and teens helped compile historical records. The final construction plan ____49____ a memorial wall with quotes from those stories — an idea born from listening. Last month, the new harbor opened. Mrs. Alvarez placed a book of collected stories at the entrance. “Infrastructure is steel and concrete,” she told Sarah, “but trust is ____50____ through stories. You built a bond.” Sarah now ____51____ her time between regions, teaching others to use storytelling. “It’s about letting locals see their ____52____ in the plans.” she says.

This experience taught Sarah that genuine connection demands courage to ____54____ and patience to nurture. “Every story is a brick,” she tells students. “Lay enough, and you’ll build an unbreakable ____55____.” Today, walking along the harbor, she sees proof that understanding can bridge the deepest divides. 41.

Anthropology is the study of human diversity, ____56____ cultural anthropology focuses on cultural systems, ____57____ (belief), practices, and expressions. Cultural anthropology’s roots date back to the 1800s, ____58____ early scholars like Lewis Henry Morgan and Edward Tylor became interested in the ____59____ (compare) study of cultural systems. This generation drew on the theories of Charles Darwin, attempting to apply his concept of evolution ____60____ human culture. Later they ____61____ (dismiss) as so-called “armchair anthropologists,” since they based their ideas on data collected by others and did not personally engage first-hand with the groups they claimed ____62____ (study). These ideas were later disproved by Franz Boas, who is widely recognized as the father of anthropology in America. Boas strongly criticized the armchair anthropologists’ belief in cultural evolution, ____63____ (argue) instead that all cultures had to be considered on their own terms and not as part of ____64____ progress model. He also trained the first generation of American anthropologists at Columbia. Boas’ influence continues in cultural anthropology’s focus on race and, more broadly, identity as forces that are shaped by society and not ____65____ (biological) based. After Boas, anthropology departments became the norm in colleges, and cultural anthropology was a central aspect of study. 【答案】56. while 57. beliefs 58. when 59. comparative 60. to 61. were dismissed 62. to study 63. arguing 64. a 65. biologically 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍文化人类学的起源与发展：先区分广义人类学与文化人类学研究范畴，介绍19世纪早期扶手椅人类学家的文化进化论观点；而后讲述弗朗茨·博阿斯驳斥该理论，确立文化相对主义，奠定现代文化人类学研究方向，并说明其对种族、身份研究带来的长远影响。 【56题详解】 考查连词。句意：人类学是对人类多样性的研究，而文化人类学则侧重于文化系统、信仰、实践和表达方式。空处连接两个并列分句，表示对比或转折关系，应用并列连词while，意为“而，然而”。 【57题详解】 考查名词复数。句意同上。belief作“信仰”时为可数名词，此处表示泛指，应用复数形式beliefs，与systems、practices、expressions并列，作介词on的宾语。 【58题详解】 考查定语从句。句意：文化人类学的根源可以追溯到19世纪，当时像Lewis Henry Morgan和Edward Tylor这样的早期学者开始对文化系统的比较研究产生兴趣。空处引导非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the 1800s，关系词在从句中作时间状语，应用关系副词when。 【59题详解】 考查形容词。句意同上。空处修饰名词study，应用形容词形式comparative，意为“比较的”，作定语，comparative study表示“比较研究”。 【60题详解】 考查介词。句意：这一代人借鉴了Charles Darwin的理论，试图将他的进化概念应用于人类文化。apply...to...为固定搭配，表示“将……应用于……”。 【61题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：后来他们被贬称为所谓的“扶手椅人类学家”，因为他们的观点建立在他人收集的数据之上，并未亲自与声称研究的群体进行第一手接触空处为谓语动词；根据后文based可知，句子描述过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时；主语they与dismiss之间为被动关系，应用被动语态，且主语为复数，be动词用were。 【62题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意同上。claim to do sth.为固定结构，表示“声称做某事”，所以空处应使用动词不定式形式。 【63题详解】 考查非谓语动词。句意：Boas强烈批评了扶手椅人类学家关于文化进化的信念，反而认为所有文化都必须根据自身情况来考虑，而不是作为某种进步模型的一部分。句中已有谓语criticized，空处作非谓语动词， argue与主语Boas之间为主动关系，应用现在分词arguing，作状语。 【64题详解】 考查冠词。句意同上。空处修饰单数可数名词model，表示泛指“一种进步模型”，且progress为辅音音素开头的单词，应用不定冠词a。 【65题详解】 考查副词。句意：Boas的影响延续到文化人类学对种族以及更广泛的对身份的关注，将其视为由社会塑造而非基于生物学上的力量。空处修饰形容词based，应用副词形式biologically，意为“生物学上地”，作状语。 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，你的英国笔友Lucy的生日即将到来，你特意给她寄了一些具有中国特色的礼物。请你给她写一封邮件，内容包括： 1. 你的祝福； 2. 简要介绍你的礼物； 3. 表达期望。 注意： 1. 写作词数应为80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3, 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 Dear Lucy, ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Lucy, With your birthday approaching, I sincerely wish you a happy birthday!

It was peaceful, her mother often said. It was safe, her father would add, patting her shoulder with his calloused hand. But Aliya thought: Is this all there is? She was certain that her future — her real life — lay somewhere else on a global stage. At twenty-two, Aliya won a scholarship to a university in New York. Her parents, proud and heartbroken, saw her off at the airport. “Come back,” they said. She smiled and waved, already gone in her mind. New York was everything she had imagined. She walked along the Hudson at sunset, visited museums she had only seen in books, and sat in lecture halls where professors discussed ideas in a way she had never encountered. She told herself this was living. She threw herself into her studies, networked at every event, and applied for every internship. She learned to laugh at jokes she didn’t understand, to dress the part, and to mold herself into someone who belonged. Sometimes she called home, hasty and casual. She was relentless in this city, always reaching for the next hold. At twenty-five, she landed a job at a prestigious firm. At twenty-seven, she had an apartment with a view of Manhattan’s skyline, a circle of cosmopolitan friends, and a calendar filled with gallery openings and rooftop parties. “You’re living the dream,” her friends back in Nuwara Eliya would say during video calls, their voices tinged with envy. Right after her thirtieth birthday, she was laid off. Emails for a new job went unanswered. The apartment became cold and hollow. She suddenly realized that all her relationships were brief and transactional connections that soon faded. She had trained herself to be a New Yorker, and now, when she needed a place to truly belong, she found herself in a city caring little about her existence. She woke up each morning feeling at a loss, her future dimming. 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。 After another upsetting wake-up, Aliya dialed the number back home. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aliya took a job in the town library. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 After another upsetting wake-up, Aliya dialed the number back home. “Are you OK, my sweetheart?” Her mother’s voice came through, warm and concerned. As she fumbled for a decent excuse, she could clearly hear her father scurrying toward the phone, obviously surprised at the rare call. Before she could pour out her grievances, her parents continued softly, “Whatever happens, dear, we are here.” Aliya gripped the phone, tears rolling down like unleashed floodwaters. The conversation ended sooner than she had wished, yet Aliya felt something loosen in her chest. She quickly erased her trail in New York and flew back as determinedly as she had once left. Aliya took a job in the town library. It was a plain building against the gentle hills, its windows facing the slow-moving river, peaceful and safe. Children came after school and embraced her before leaving. She walked home each evening, greeted by the peddlers and sometimes even friends along the way. In the warmth of her family home, she sat with her parents, hearing stories she had been too impatient to listen to before. Aliya finally felt a sense of contentment. She had spent the best of her twenties chasing the glamour of a distant shore, only to find she had possessed it here from the very beginning. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Aliya从小生活在斯里兰卡宁静的小镇，一心向往外面广阔的世界。二十二岁时她拿到奖学金远赴纽约求学，努力融入当地，收获光鲜的工作与生活。三十岁失业之后，过往的繁华全部消散，她陷入迷茫失落，重新思考归属感的真正含义。 【详解】 1. 段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写Aliya拨通家里电话，父母温暖的话语抚慰了她受伤的内心，她下定决心告别纽约，回到故乡。 ②由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写Aliya回到家乡之后的日常工作与生活，在熟悉的山水与家人陪伴下，她找到了内心真正的满足，领悟归属感一直就在故乡。 2. 续写线索： 拨通家里电话 ——父母温情安慰 —— 下定决心返乡 —— 图书馆工作 —— 感受家乡烟火 —— 获得内心满足 3.词汇激活 行为类 ① 抓住：grip/seize ② 结束：end/conclude 情绪类 ① 惊讶的：surprised/astonished ② 满足：contentment/satisfaction 【点睛】【高分句型1】It was a plain building against the gentle hills, its windows facing the slow-moving river, peaceful and safe.(运用了独立主格结构作状语) 【高分句型2】She had spent the best of her twenties chasing the glamour of a distant shore, only to find she had possessed it here from the very beginning.(运用了动词不定式短语作结果状语) 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $听力考试正式开始。Morning, Caroline, did you enjoy your weekend in the country?

Good morning, everyone. I have a new member of this book club today. I'd like to share there a really valuable book with you. Last year, I had a job interview in the capital, and since the commute was quite long, I wanted to make good use of that time. So I picked up a book before boarding the train. The one I bought is called atomic habits, and I was totally absorbed in IT during the journey. The core idea of this book revolves around daily habits. IT argues that big life changes don't have to come from dramatic overhauls. Instead, replacing bad habits with small positive ones can make a huge difference. Specifically, IT points out that a one percent daily and prove bin adds up to a thirty seven percent performance boost by the end of the year. That idea really gave me hope and made life more motivating after reading, and I even achieved my longer iit goals in just six months. If any of you hear haven't read IT yet, but want to make positive changes in your life, I highly recommend giving IT a try. Good morning, everyone. I have a new member of this book club today. I'd like to share a really valuable book with you. Last year, I had a job interview in the capital, and since the commute was quite long, I wanted to make good use of that time.

The best way to see the Scottish Highlands is by train, where you can take in the rolling hills and mystical lochs (湖) from the comfort of your seat. Here are the most popular routes to exploring the Scottish Highlands by train: Loch Ness: 3 hours, 18 minutes by train For those seeking out the legendary Loch Ness monster, Inverness is the closest train station to the famous loch. From the station, travelers can take a bus or taxi to Fort Augustus and board a boat tour to try to spot the creature. As Scotland’s second-largest loch, Loch Ness is a great place to fish or kayak. Fort William and Mallaig: over 5 hours by train Although a long train ride, the trip from Edinburgh to Mallaig, a charming fishing village, is worth it. This route offers some of the best scenery in the world. Travelers can board the 19th-century-inspired Jacobite Steam Train and wind past charming villages, the Morar River and beaches. Ben Nevis: over 5 hours by train Ben Nevis is an ancient volcano that exploded and collapsed on itself to become the tallest mountain in the British Isles. Travelers can take the train to Fort William, a town offering castles, and rugged coastlines along the West Highlands Peninsula. The town is also known as the “Outdoor Capital” of Scotland, so thrill-seekers can go skiing and hiking to their heart’s desire. 21. What can travelers do at Loch Ness? A. Explore the area on foot. B. Discover hidden villages. C. Take a kayaking adventure. D. Take a guided tour of castles. 22. What makes the route to Mallaig special? A. It allows visitors to hike. B. Its duration is relatively short. C. It has a mysterious creature in the village. D. It offers some of the world’s best scenery. 23. What is the author’s purpose of writing this text? A. To describe some historical places. B. To show popular train routes. C. To highlight the convenience of trains. D. To suggest some adventurous activities. B “Noooo!” His scream echoed down the hall. “Go put on your shoes. I don’t want to ask you again.” “I don’t want to!” I sighed loudly as I prepared myself for yet another argument. My five-year-old had been pushing all my buttons for weeks. He was easily annoyed and unwilling to follow the simplest requests. On top of that, he was incredibly needy even though we were spending almost every day together. I felt like our relationship was really struggling. It was one of those seasons in parenting when I was at a complete loss for what to do next, even though I knew something had to change. It was during this time of desperately searching for some solution, when a parenting webinar (网络研讨会) led me to Dr. Laura Markham and her book, Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids: How to Stop Yelling and Start Connecting. The title immediately caught my eye. I longed for a peace-filled home, and of course I wanted happy kids. What parent doesn’t? Great frustration had me yelling way more than I ever imagined I would, and I knew the connection with my son was suffering greatly as a result. This book couldn’t arrive fast enough! I dove right in, and when I read the section about spending special time with kids, a light bulb (灯泡) went off. According to Dr. Markham, special time is simply time that you spend one-on-one, focusing completely on your child. I realized although my son was around me for a significant part of each day, we often weren’t spending quality one-on-one time together. With his little brother to care for, along with the general busyness of life, I just wasn’t paying enough attention to him. His neediness that, at times, was exhausting was a clue. His angry mood? Also clues. I was not giving him the connection time that he needed. I didn’t know if having special time with my son was going to bring harmony back to our relationship, but I was eager to give it a shot. 24. Which of the following led to the arguments between the author and her son? A. They spent little time together. B. They had too many disagreements. C. The author was too strict with her son. D. The author failed to satisfy her son’s needs. 25. How did the author feel when coming across Dr. Markham’s book? A. Puzzled. B. Astonished. C. Hopeful. D. Regretful. 26. What does Dr. Markham think is the key to special time with kids? A. Long duration. B. Full attention. C. Various activities. D. Peaceful mood. 27. What did the author decide to do in the end? A. Spend quality time with her son. B. Be more tolerant towards her son. C. Balance her busy life with her family. D. Seek more advice from Dr. Markham. C We’ve all had those awkward moments: heading upstairs only to wonder what on earth you came for, drawing a blank when trying to name someone you know, or even discovering your car keys tucked away inside the fridge. These brief memory failures may make us uneasy, yet they are just a natural part of ageing. Cognitive neuroscientist Ulman Lindenberger explains that episodic (情景的) memory, which keeps track of events, places and time, inevitably declines as people grow older. This trend becomes noticeable after the age of 60 and disrupts the whole process of memory operation. It arises from physical changes in the brain that start in middle age: the neural protective coating degrades, links between different brain regions weaken, and the hippocampus (海马体), key to new memory formation, shrinks. Besides, most casual memory failures actually stem from low concentration caused by distraction or stress. The real challenge lies in telling normal ageing-related memory loss apart from serious cognitive issues. Doctors warn that persistent forgetfulness disturbing daily routines, such as missing important appointments repeatedly, should arouse our concern. Frequent unconscious repetition in talks is another warning sign, which may indicate mild cognitive impairment or early dementia, for the affected brain parts can no longer build new memories of recent experiences. What makes judgement even harder is that no clear boundary divides normal memory decline and dementia (痴呆症). Negative emotions, menopause (更年期) and certain drugs can also temporarily weaken people’s cognitive ability. Moreover, seniors haunted by fear of dementia often overinterpret minor memory slips, which creates extra harm to their health. Since even experts find it hard to distinguish the two cases, we should turn to professionals once memory fades rapidly and gets in the way of daily life. 28. Which of the scenes represents the phenomenon mentioned? A. A person just went out without bringing his keys. B. Old friends meet but can’t recall each other’s names. C. A woman forgets whether she watered the plants today. D. Going out with friends and not knowing what to buy. 29. What does the underlined words “inevitably” mean? A. Naturally. B. Unavoidably. C. Suddenly. D. Sharply. 30. What can we infer from Paragraph 3? A. Memory decline exhibits a specific correlation with cognitive impairment. B. Elderly people tend to forget daily tasks and plans with forgetfulness. C. Frequent unconscious repetition is a symptom of early dementia. D. The damaged brain regions cannot self-repair by forming new memories. 31. What will the article discuss next? A. Clarify the definition of short-term memory loss. B. Further research into causes of short-term memory loss. C. Proper attitudes toward short-term memory loss. D. Expert opinions on temporary memory lapses. D Whenever I complained that I was bored, my mother would not hand me a phone or switch on the television. Instead she would move from shelf to shelf, and return with some books in her arms. She would sit on the edge of my bed, describing each in a few words. My mother used books as a form of communication. It wasn’t simply the exchange I’ve just described — her giving me books she’d read and loved as a child, and hoping I would love them too — but the words in the books themselves. If we drove towards the Gladesville Bridge at night, the lights of cars streaming down, she would quote her favourite poet, who described headlights on the bridge as "the immaculate sigh of stars". To her, books gave voice to what she noticed. My mother’s gift for noticing small moments reflected an important quality: she deeply valued sensory details. She was always pointing them out to me, like young ducks, the fluff (绒毛) all over their bodies pale yellow, as though they wore bath towels. I didn’t realise it then, but those moments were quietly shaping the way I would later understand the world. Now as a literature teacher, I value sensory details as well. I often find myself encouraging my students to notice them, just as my mother once encouraged me. When talking about the Harry Potter series, I ask my students to consider whether it’s the lists of richly imagined foods, the all-flavour jellybeans and the butter beer that are the books’ real attraction. Only now do I realise how much of my mother I carry with me. What stays with me is not the titles she chose or the quotes she gave, but the habit of looking closely at the world. Borrowing lines from the books to describe our own lives, we’re adding depth to what we’ve seen or felt or heard. 32. What did the mother use to relieve the writer’s boredom? A. Television. B. Phones. C. Books. D. Food. 33. Why did the mother quote “the immaculate sigh of stars”? A. To vividly describe a small moment. B. To briefly explain a bridge structure. C. To express her love for the universe. D. To talk about her most beloved poet. 34. What does the writer emphasize in her teaching? A. Challenging literary classics. B. Paying mindful attention to details. C. Quoting the Harry Potter series. D. Developing creative imagination. 35. What does the writer learn from her mother? A. Poetic writing techniques. B. Vital communication skills. C. A method of self-reflection. D. A habit of close observation. 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。 Generosity is like the circulation of blood — healthiest and vibrant when flowing in both directions. In my youth, I knew an elderly relative whose kindness seemed boundless: she arrived with thoughtful gifts, cooked favorite meals, and sat by sickbeds with chicken soup. Yet she rigidly refused all favors, even a glass of water. “I give, but don’t take,” she’d say proudly. ____36____ Scientific research confirms the mutual joy of giving and receiving. In one experiment, participants performing small acts of kindness—holding doors, feeding parking meters, or gifting snacks — bring forth genuine “Duchenne smiles” (genuinely happy smiles) from the receivers nearly four times more often than unassisted strangers. ____37____ Similarly, a 2004 study further showed students assigned five weekly acts of kindness maintained higher happiness levels than those who did not engage. Logically, then, one way we can raise others’ well-being is by giving them opportunities to be kind and helpful. In a 2022 study, researchers revealed that people hesitate to ask strangers for help, because they assume this will cause inconvenience and annoy the person. ____38____ They saw it as less trouble, and enjoyed more mood enhancement. Balance, however, is crucial. Demanding excessive help — like asking to live in someone’s home — ruins goodwill. So does offering cash for favors like moving boxes for you. ____39____ To cultivate generosity, start by accepting small offers: a coffee, a helping hand. Then respond. When I once bought a homeless man food, I asked, “Will you pray for my family?” His shock melted into eagerness. This exchange honored his dignity, proving everyone has something to give — whether advice, prayers, or gratitude. Generosity’s true power lies in this circulation: give freely, receive gratefully, and repeat. ____40____ A. This one-sided approach, however, is deeply flawed. B. It promotes relationships only when flowing unblocked. C. Kindness grows on sincerity, not responsibilities or deals. D. The circulation of kindness benefits both givers and receivers. E. An unwillingness to accept kindnesses is a form of selfishness. F. Givers also reported immediate boosts in mood and life satisfaction. G. However, people who responded by helping proved more willing to assist. 第三部分 语言知识运用（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。 When Sarah first arrived in the Caribbean for an infrastructure project, she was met with local skepticism. “People saw us as outsiders with no real care for their lives,” she recalled. The sense of ____41____ grew in her, and her team faced frequent rejections of their plans; community meetings would burst into arguments. One afternoon, Sarah visited a bookstore run by Mrs. Alvarez. They chatted, and the elderly woman mentioned how the old harbor had been the community’s heart — until a storm ____42____ it years ago. “No one’s dared to ____43____ it since,” she said, her voice filled with regret. Sarah saw a chance for the ____44____ of the growing distrust. She asked Mrs. Alvarez to gather a few residents for a casual chat about the harbor’s past. To her ____45____, over fifty people came, ____46____ sharing old photos and memories. That day, Sarah’s team ____47____ their blueprints and just listened. As stories emerged, the community’s ____48____ attitude softened. Residents offered suggestions, and teens helped compile historical records. The final construction plan ____49____ a memorial wall with quotes from those stories — an idea born from listening. Last month, the new harbor opened. Mrs. Alvarez placed a book of collected stories at the entrance. “Infrastructure is steel and concrete,” she told Sarah, “but trust is ____50____ through stories. You built a bond.” Sarah now ____51____ her time between regions, teaching others to use storytelling. “It’s about letting locals see their ____52____ in the plans.” she says. She’s even ____53____ a handbook for the removal of cultural barriers. This experience taught Sarah that genuine connection demands courage to ____54____ and patience to nurture. “Every story is a brick,” she tells students. “Lay enough, and you’ll build an unbreakable ____55____.” Today, walking along the harbor, she sees proof that understanding can bridge the deepest divides. 41. A. welcome B. confidence C. isolation D. relief 42. A. protected B. enlarged C. surrounded D. ruined 43. A. rebuild B. visit C. mention D. paint 44. A. fade B. pause C. gain D. end 45.

It was peaceful, her mother often said. It was safe, her father would add, patting her shoulder with his calloused hand. But Aliya thought: Is this all there is? She was certain that her future — her real life — lay somewhere else on a global stage. At twenty-two, Aliya won a scholarship to a university in New York. Her parents, proud and heartbroken, saw her off at the airport. “Come back,” they said. She smiled and waved, already gone in her mind. New York was everything she had imagined. She walked along the Hudson at sunset, visited museums she had only seen in books, and sat in lecture halls where professors discussed ideas in a way she had never encountered. She told herself this was living. She threw herself into her studies, networked at every event, and applied for every internship. She learned to laugh at jokes she didn’t understand, to dress the part, and to mold herself into someone who belonged. Sometimes she called home, hasty and casual. She was relentless in this city, always reaching for the next hold. At twenty-five, she landed a job at a prestigious firm. At twenty-seven, she had an apartment with a view of Manhattan’s skyline, a circle of cosmopolitan friends, and a calendar filled with gallery openings and rooftop parties. “You’re living the dream,” her friends back in Nuwara Eliya would say during video calls, their voices tinged with envy. Right after her thirtieth birthday, she was laid off. Emails for a new job went unanswered. The apartment became cold and hollow. She suddenly realized that all her relationships were brief and transactional connections that soon faded. She had trained herself to be a New Yorker, and now, when she needed a place to truly belong, she found herself in a city caring little about her existence. She woke up each morning feeling at a loss, her future dimming. 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。 After another upsetting wake-up, Aliya dialed the number back home. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Aliya took a job in the town library. _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
