【原文】Hello, everyone. What I want to share with you today is that learning Chinese well is important. As we all know, learning Chinese is beneficial in several ways. First, Chinese is the most important subject for us school students. By learning Chinese well, we can improve our academic performance. It will surely delight our parents and teachers. It is also associated with a brighter future. Second, learning Chinese well is a must to gain cultural awareness. Equipped with rich cultural knowledge, we are sure to win respect and admiration. You know, books hold a lot of valuable wisdom. So only by reading more Chinese books can we broaden our horizons and become a person with fine taste. Third, China has the largest population in the world and has an exciting and brilliant culture. So learning Chinese can access the key to the gateway of this knowledge. Also, wherever we go, we can spread the idea that learning Chinese well opens up a whole new world to someone outside of the culture. With all these advantages of learning Chinese, it is no wonder that it now enjoys great popularity among people all over the world.
二、阅读理解
语篇解读:本文是一篇应用文,介绍了四大清凉避暑目的地及其特色户外活动。
21.D【解析】细节理解题。定位 Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado 段落:What makes the park special is the mystery tour of Stanley Hotel。由此可知探秘神秘酒店是该公园独有的项目。A 骑马、B 铺装公路、C 山地骑行徒步,其他景区也有,并非独有。由此可知,故选 D。
22.D【解析】细节理解题。冰岛部分提到可以乘船游览布满冰山的冰河湖;挪威部分提到可乘船游览盖朗厄尔冰冷峡湾。两地都能乘船欣赏冰雪景观。A 深入冰洞仅冰岛拥有;B 采摘野果只在挪威;C 笼式观鲨属于开普敦。由此可知,故选 D。
23.A【解析】推理判断题。文章开篇推荐夏日避暑旅行目的地,介绍各地游玩项目,题材符合旅游杂志特征。B 地理教材侧重理论知识;C 生物报告围绕生物研究;D 购物广告主打商品促销,均不符合文本内容。由此可知,故选 A。
语篇解读:这是一篇说明文。文章介绍一项新研究:聆听自选运动音乐可以显著提升运动耐力。文中介绍实验流程、数据结果,并引用研究者观点说明该发现具备很高的现实实用价值,音乐并不能降低运动本身的身体消耗,而是帮助人们更长时间忍受运动带来的不适感。
24.B【解析】词义猜测题。根据第一段 “Cyclists exercising with self-selected songs lasted nearly 20% longer than when riding in silence, yet they didn’t feel more fatigued at the end.” 可知,骑行者听音乐能坚持更久,但并不会感觉更加疲惫。由此推断 fatigued 表示 “疲惫的”,等同于 tired。A 项 “孤独的”、C 项 “精力充沛的”、D 项 “满怀希望的” 均不符合语境。 由此可知,故选 B 项。
25.A【解析】主旨大意题。第二段介绍研究对象、两组对照骑行测试设置以及对应的实验时长数据,完整展示本次研究的实施过程。B 项 “挑战”、C 项 “研究目的”、D 项 “研究背景” 均不是本段核心内容。由此可知,故选 A 项。
26.C【解析】细节理解题。结合第一段 “listening to your favorite exercise music may greatly improve endurance” 以及第二段数据:有音乐时受试者平均运动 35.6 分钟,无音乐仅 29.8 分钟,说明音乐能够让参与者维持运动更长时间。A 项 “喜欢唱歌” 文中无依据;B 项 “心率大幅降低” 与第四段 “participants showed similar heart rates” 相悖;D 项 “偏爱高强度训练” 原文未提及。由此可知,故选 C 项。
27.D【解析】推理判断题。根据第三段 “Lead researcher Andrew Danso said the results could have practical value for anyone trying to improve exercise performance or stick with a training routine.” 可知, Danso 认为这项研究成果具备现实实用价值。A 项 “还需要进一步研究”、B 项 “印证专家以往观点”、C 项 “质疑高强度训练的价值” 文中均没有相关表述。由此可知,故选 D 项。
语篇解读:这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述一对新西兰夫妇放下日常生活,前往加纳村庄进行为期一年的志愿工作,并分享这段经历带给他们的感悟与收获。
28.C【解析】推理判断题。根据第一段 “Few of us, once we’re buried in grown up employment and adult responsibilities, have the courage to actually do it.” 可知,人们难以逃离日常琐事,原因是背负着成年人的工作与各类责任。其他三项属于无中生有。由此可知,故选 C 项。
29.A【解析】词义猜测题。根据第三段 “a not-for-profit lodge that offers accommodation”,该场所可以提供住宿,由此推断 lodge 指小型旅馆。B 项慈善机构、C 项喷泉、D 项旅行社均不符合 “提供住宿” 这一特征。由此可知,故选 A 项。
30.D【解析】细节理解题。根据第三段 Josie 主动申请志愿运营民宿以及第四段 “They greeted guests and took bookings, cooked and cleaned…finally become a part of this tiny village community” 可知,夫妇二人在当地社区开展志愿工作。A 项去海滩、C 项背包徒步只是普通出游形式,并非他们的安排;B 项创办公司文中未提及。由此可知,故选 D 项。
31.A【解析】推理判断题。根据最后一段,此次经历最重要的收获是耐心,当地有着不一样的时间观念,凡事要顺应当地节奏,耐心建立人际关系,据此可推知耐心、适应当地节奏是宝贵的收获。B 项认为新西兰城市生活毫无意义,过度解读;C 项打算全职定居加纳,文中没有依据;D 项认为加纳生活节奏效率更高,与原文信息不符。由此可知,故选 A 项。
语篇解读:这是一篇说明文。文章介绍中国研学市场快速壮大,美国 SYTA 行业协会带队多家国际教育旅游企业赴杭州考察研学市场,多位负责人认可中国文旅、安全环境与科创资源,计划开发来华研学线路并推动中外双向研学交流。
32.B【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段 “led some 20 international educational travel companies to explore the Chinese market and meet local companies” 可知,SYTA 组织杭州之行是为考察、开拓中国研学市场。A 项体验当地夜生活、C 项参观博物馆、D 项学习中餐烹饪均只是中国研学资源,并非本次出行目的,无中生有。由此可知,故选 B 项。
33.A【解析】细节理解题。根据第四段 “She noted that China strongly attracts young travellers from all over the world with its rich cultural heritage, lively and safe nightlife, and amazing variety of cultures and local foods” 可知,丰富文化底蕴与安全的生活环境是吸引外国青年游客的核心因素。B 项成熟的旅游市场、D 项便捷交通是 Assante 对中国营商环境的好感点,并非吸引游客的亮点,答非所问;C 项价格低廉的食宿原文未提及,无中生有。由此可知,故选 A 项。
34.C【解析】细节理解题。根据第五段 “Imrie said he was considering organizing STEM tours for students from the US, Australia, and New Zealand to explore the city’s technological innovation” 可知,Imrie 计划推出杭州 STEM 研学之旅。A 项澳大利亚文化之旅、B 项美国体育之旅、D 项新西兰音乐之旅均与原文内容不符,偷换地点与主题。由此可知,故选 C 项。
35.D【解析】主旨大意题。全文开篇点明中国研学市场高速发展,后文围绕国际协会来华考察、洽谈研学合作、规划来华研学项目展开论述,核心主题为蓬勃发展的中国研学市场。A 项 SYTA 的历史与会员仅为文中次要背景信息,片面;B 项在中国安全出行、C 项杭州秀美风光均偏离文章研学市场合作的核心主旨。由此可知,故选 D 项。
语篇解读:这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了美国一些州的学校,体育课正在改变,以便使学生为高中毕业后的生活做好准备。
36.B【解析】考查过渡句。题空前句“It means less rope climbing and dodgeball.( 这意味着少用绳子攀爬和躲避球)提到了“减少使用绳子攀爬项目和躲避球项目”。由此可推知题空句应设空应增加行的体育课内容。这样,既呼应本段主题,由可引出下文。选项B“It means more bike riding and outdoor hikes.( 这意味着更多的骑自行车和户外徒步旅行。)”符合语境要求。故选B项。
37.D【解析】考查过渡句。题空后句 “They include dance, self- defense and rock climbing. They include mountain biking, in-line skating, and boating.”( “它们”包括舞蹈、自卫和攀岩。“它们”包括山地自行车、轮滑和划船。)提到的都是具体的的训练课程名称。由此可知,题空句应先提出训练课程且应是复数以便对应居中的代词“they”。选项 D. Instead there is a list of different fitness classes(取而代之的是一系列不同的健身课程),符合语境。故选D项。
38.C【解析】考查过渡句。选项C. Other schools are now following his program.中提到的his program 是题空前句中Whitcom’s program的复现,题空后句承接题空句列举出了其他学校的名称。故选C项。
39.F【解析】考查过渡句。选项F. She is part of her school’s “Outdoor Academy” program.中提出一项户外学术项目。题空后句 “It combines PE, English, and science into one program.( 它把体育、英语和科学融为一体。)点明了项目的具体内容。由此可知,题空后句 中的It指代的就是“Outdoor Academy” program。故选F项。
40.E【解析】考查主题句。由题空句所在段落的小标题Lifelong Skills可预知该段主要内容。选项E. The school district’s goal is to teach lifelong skills.复现了该段的小标题,呼应本段主题。故选E项。
三、完形填空
语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者曾经被焦虑困扰,根源是追求完美。一场讲座点燃了他投身野生动物保护的热情,他突破自我怀疑抓住机遇,不断建立自信,并领悟到最大的阻碍是内心的自我否定,应当主动把握机会、付诸行动。
41.B【解析】settle 安顿;struggle 挣扎;adjust 适应;reflect 反思。根据上文 “anxiety weighed heavily on me, crippling my ability to do anything”,焦虑严重影响生活,由此可知作者挣扎了将近一年。故选 B 项。

五、应用文写作
66.
【参考例文】
My Views on Filming Short Videos on Campus
Recently, filming short videos on campus has become popular among students. In my opinion, this trend has both advantages and disadvantages. Videos can record colorful campus life and spread positive energy. However, some students spend too much time filming, which affects their studies. Worse still, filming others without permission may invade their privacy.
Therefore, I suggest we film short videos only during free time and in proper places. More importantly, always ask for permission before filming others. Let's use our phones wisely and keep our focus on study.
六、读后续写
67.
Burying my face behind the piano lid, I was surprised when its polished surface reflected Mr. Reed approaching. Instead of scolding me, he patted my shoulder gently and comforted me patiently. He said nervousness was totally normal for a first solo and encouraged me to practice bravely for the retest. His warm words eased my embarrassment and disappointment. I made up my mind to overcome my shyness and practice singing every day after school carefully.
Three weeks later, holding the same microphone with sweat, I noticed raindrops tracing paths on the window. Taking a deep breath, I recalled the useful skills I had learned. Standing steadily and focusing calmly, I sang the whole song fluently and clearly without any mistake. The classroom burst into warm applause. Mr. Reed smiled and praised my great progress. I finally defeated my fear and gained precious courage from this special experience.

Some travelers prefer escaping hot summer heat instead of staying on burning beaches. If you are also looking for cool summer getaways with amazing outdoor fun, the four fantastic destinations below are your ideal choices, ranging from icy European islands to scenic spots across three continents.
Iceland
Average summer temperature: 12.8 ℃
You can take guided outdoor tours, among which wandering inside an ice cave is the most impressive activity. The thick ice never melts in warm summer. After climbing to the cave entrance with spiked shoes, tourists may also choose a boat tour across a glacial lagoon (冰河湖) full of ancient icebergs.
Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado
Average summer temperature: 19 ℃
Base your trip in Estes Park and join wildlife tours covering fly fishing, horseback riding and guided hiking. Adventurous visitors can ride bikes along Trail Ridge Road, the highest paved road inside national parks. What makes the park special is the mystery tour of Stanley Hotel, a famous building used as the setting for the movie The Shining and famous for its mysterious stories.
Norway
Average summer temperature: 19 ℃
Tourists can take midnight walks around Oslo’s Vigeland Park or ride a scenic funicular (缆车) up Mount Floyen for amazing top-of-mountain views. Another classic choice is a daytime boat trip to icy Geiranger Fjord. In the short summer berry season, visitors can pick fresh wild berries on local family farms.
Cape Town, South Africa
Average summer temperature: 19 ℃
Surrounded by two oceans and mountains, it provides outdoor recreation like Table Mountain hiking and mountain biking. For excitement, travelers can join cage diving to watch great white sharks from May to October. Besides, humpback whales (座头鲸) migrate near the coast from June to August, allowing visitors to enjoy whale watching along coastal waters.

(共4小题,每小题2.5分,满分10分)
A new study shows that listening to your favorite exercise music may greatly improve endurance (耐力). Cyclists exercising with self-selected songs lasted nearly 20% longer than when riding in silence, yet they didn’t feel more fatigued at the end. Researchers believe music may help people stay in the “pain zone” longer without feeling more pressure from exercise.
The study included 29 adults who completed two cycling tests at the same intensity (强度) level. One test was done in silence, while the other allowed participants to listen to their favorite songs. When music was played, most of which had a fast beat, around 120 to 140 beats per minute, participants exercised for an average of 35.6 minutes. Without music, the average time was only 29.8 minutes.
Lead researcher Andrew Danso said the results could have practical value for anyone trying to improve exercise performance or stick with a training routine. “Self-selected music doesn’t change your fitness level or make your heart work dramatically harder in the moment — it simply helps you tolerate sustained effort for longer. It may be an incredibly simple, zero-cost tool that lets people push further in training without feeling extra strain at the end. Our findings suggest that the right playlist may make tough sessions feel more doable and more enjoyable,” Danso explained.
Despite exercising longer and burning more energy overall, participants showed similar heart rates at the end of both tests. This suggests that the music did not reduce the physical demands of the workout itself. Instead, it appeared to bring participants a clear improvement in endurance and help them tolerate discomfort for a longer period of time.
“Many people struggle to stick with hard training because it feels exhausting too quickly,” said Danso. “Our research shows that letting people choose their own motivating music may help them accumulate (累积) more quality training time, which could translate to better fitness gains, improved adherence (坚持) to exercise programs, and possibly more people staying active.”
24.(2.5分)What does the underlined word “fatigued” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A.Lonely. B.Tired. C.Energetic. D.Hopeful.
25.(2.5分)What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about concerning the study?
A.The process. B.The challenges.
C.The purposes. D.The background.
26.(2.5分)How did music affect the participants in cycling?
A.They became interested in singing.
B.They showed much lower heart rates.
C.They could remain active for longer.
D.They preferred high-intensity workouts.
27.(2.5分)What can we learn about the results of the research from Danso’s words?
A.They require further research.
B.They support experts’ previous opinions.
C.They question the value of difficult training.
D.They have great real-world significance.

Almost every Monday morning, plenty of us can be found daydreaming about taking off and escaping the daily routine. Few of us, once we’re buried in grown up employment and adult responsibilities, have the courage to actually do it. But one couple did.
Josie Scott and Graeme Ramsey, based in New Zealand, decided to take a one-year vacation from their lives. Rather than committing to a full-time position as beach-goers or backpackers, they chose to volunteer in Ghana for a year, in a small village called Dzita.
Having stayed at MMT, a not-for-profit lodge that offers accommodation and helps the functioning of an NGO, Dream Big Ghana, which works to improve the public hygiene (卫生), education and health care for local people before, Josie knew how it worked and about the good it did with the local community. She then volunteered herself and Graeme to run the lodge for a year.
And so began a year of African adventure away from everything they were used to. They greeted guests and took bookings, cooked and cleaned, shopped and swam and finally become a part of this tiny village community.
One year on and Josie and Graeme are now back in New Zealand adjusting to life at home. The couple think they’ve got a lot from that experience, the most important of which is patience. “Time is viewed differently and so expecting things to run the same way as they do in New Zealand is going to lead to disappointment. Everything gets done in its own time, and that was a very valuable lesson to learn. People are also very friendly in Ghana, but it actually takes a long time to really get to know what’s going on. Being patient and building relationships slowly is very rewarding. Using what we have rather than what we think we need was another lesson. Living outside the city with few resources is a good way to learn to make good use of what’s around us.”

China’s study tour market is growing very fast, with teenagers crowding into museums, cultural heritage sites, and tech companies for hands-on, immersive (沉浸式的) learning — raising the question of whether China could become a top destination for international student travellers.
At the 2025 Xianghu Dialogue, hosted by the World Tourism Alliance from Wednesday to Friday in Hangzhou, Zhejiang province, the Student & Youth Travel Association (SYTA), a US-based trade association (行业协会) with over 900 member companies in 30 countries, led some 20 international educational travel companies to explore the Chinese market and meet local companies.
Carylann Assante, chief executive officer of SYTA, who was on her first visit to China, said she was pleased by the welcoming nature of the Chinese people, the well-developed tourism market, the quality of hotels and restaurants, and the convenient transportation.
She noted that China strongly attracts young travellers from all over the world with its rich cultural heritage, lively and safe nightlife, and amazing variety of cultures and local foods.
Brent Imrie, president of SYTA and an experienced tour operator from New Zealand, saw a great chance to create study trips to China focused on culture, language, sports, and music. Calling Hangzhou “Asia’s Silicon Valley (硅谷)”, Imrie said he was considering organizing STEM tours for students from the US, Australia, and New Zealand to explore the city’s technological innovation (创新).
Besides organizing study tours to China, Imrie also stressed that by working with the World Tourism Alliance and local tour operators, there is a huge opportunity for Chinese students and educators to connect with SYTA members for overseas study tour experiences.
32.(2.5分)Why did SYTA organize a trip to Hangzhou?
A.To enjoy local nightlife. B.To explore study tour market.
C.To visit famous museums. D.To learn Chinese cooking.

In some US states, gym class is changing. Many schools are focusing on getting students ready for life after high school. They are looking for ways to leave even the least athletic kids with the will and skills to keep moving. For gym teachers, that means less focus on who is best at a sport. It means less rope climbing and dodgeball(躲避球). 36
A New Model
In one New York school district, there is no “gym” class. 37 They include dance, self- defense and rock climbing. They include mountain biking, in-line skating, and boating.
“We want our kids…, to be active for life,” said Ron Whitcomb. He manages the physical education, or PE, program for the Victor, New York, school district.
A US law passed in 2015 increased the importance of health and fitness in education. It also gave more funding(资金) to PE programs.
Whitcomb’s program started before that law passed. 38 Connecticut, Vermont and Michigan are all planning to improve PE’s place in their schools.
Outside the Gym
Tracy Krause teaches PE in Washington State. For a few years, she has taken students fly-fishing and rock climbing. 39 It combines PE, English, and science into one program. “We want kids to leave with a plan for the future,” Krause said. “I think the same needs to be true about their health.”
Lifelong Skills
In Washington, D. C, all second-graders learn to ride bikes. Fourth- and seventh-graders learn parkour(跑酷). Parkour teaches students to jump, climb and roll in the fastest way they can. Sixth- graders learn how to read a compass. High schoolers swim. 40
Teachers hope to keep students liking, not hating, PE. That means finding sports or activities they enjoy.
A. They are also cutting back on team sports.
B. It means more bike riding and outdoor hikes.
C. Other schools are now following his program.
D. Instead there is a list of different fitness classes.
E. The school district’s goal is to teach lifelong skills.
F. She is part of her school’s “Outdoor Academy” program.
G. Kids who are not as athletic sometimes hate playing team sports.

The Fearful Music Exam
The frightening day of our required music exam arrived. Our parents praised our school’s modem music room with its grand piano and sound system. My mother said it was better than many concert halls. But to me, the piano looked like a sleeping dragon, causing my extreme nervousness and fright.
Being painfully shy, I always chose group activities like choir practice. When Mr. Reed taught solo singing every Friday — a compulsory part of our music course — I’d stand behind the tallest classmate, humming softly to avoid attention.
Now, it was the final Friday — exam day. My fingers turned icy when Mr. Reed announced: “Today, everyone must sing alone for your final grade. Those who fail will retake the exam after school next month.”
As classmates took turns at the front, my knees knocked together. Each sang steadily into the microphone, voices clear under the bright ceiling lights. Soon I’d have to do what terrified me most — singing solo before thirty classmates.
Suddenly I recalled a TV singer’s interview: Watch and learn. So I observed carefully — how they adjusted the microphone height, stood with feet apart, took a deep belly breath, and focused on the back wall while singing. After eight performances, hope flickered in me. Those four steps seemed manageable.
When Mr. Reed called my name, my shoes squeaked (嘎吱作响) on the wooden floor. Every face turned toward me. My neck burned hot. Holding the microphone tightly, I tried the steps: Adjust, Stand, Breathe and Focus. But my voice came out thin and shaky. Even worse, I completely forgot the lyrics at the chorus (副歌). A wave of whispers swept the room as I went back to my seat.
注意:
(1)续写词数应为150左右;
(2)请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Burying my face behind the piano lid, I was surprised when its polished surface reflected Mr. Reed approaching.

Three weeks later, holding the same microphone with sweat, I noticed raindrops tracing paths on the window.
