McQuade began caring for the elderly when she was a child. After chores (家务) were done, she would help elderly neighbors with her grandmother, often taking along food and gifts. These experiences and her close relationship with her grandmother planted the seeds for a lifetime of helping the elderly. When McQuade grew up, she became a housewife. She took care of her kids and had many grandchildren. She believed that spending time with elderly loved ones was very important and wanted to create a holiday where families could enjoy themselves together. In the early 1970s, she started her journey to make the holiday a reality. She kept calling and writing letters to the local and state leaders until she finally got attention in 1973 from Senator Jennings Randolph. He introduced to the Senate (参议院) the idea of making Grandparents Day a national holiday. His plan fell through in the Senate, but McQuade didn’t get discouraged. After years of efforts, her hard work paid off. On August 3rd, 1978, the president officially made Grandparents Day a national holiday. He also stated how important it was to honor grandparents and understand the value of family. Although Grandparents Day began in the US, it is now celebrated in many other countries. In Germany, Grandparents Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in October. In Mexico, it is on August 28th, when children often prepare a special meal for their grandparents or give gifts to them. 11. When is Grandparents Day in the US this year? (2025) A. B. C. D. 12. Which experience made McQuade want to help old people all her life? A. Preparing meals for her grandma. B. Being raised by her grandparents. C. Going to small family parties often. D. Spending time with elderly neighbors as a kid. 13. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mean? A. Grandparents Day was allowed to be celebrated. B. Making Grandparents Day a national holiday failed. C. The Senate delayed the decision on Grandparents Day. D. Jennings Randolph passed away from working too hard. 14. What can we infer about Grandparents Day today? A. Its original meaning has changed. B. Its influence has gone beyond the US. C. Other countries value it more than the US. D. Other countries celebrate it at the same time as the US. 15. Which of the following can best describe Marian McQuade? A. Kind and persistent. B. Brave and intelligent. C. Careful and imaginative. D. Strict and independent. 【答案】11. C 12. D 13. B 14. B 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了Marian McQuade因童年与老年邻居相处的经历萌生帮助老人的想法，后经过多年不懈努力推动美国设立全国性祖父母节，如今祖父母节已在多个国家被庆祝的相关内容。 【11题详解】 根据文章第1段“Grandparents Day, celebrated on the first Sunday after Labor Day (first Monday in September) in the US”可知，美国祖父母节是九月第一个周一（劳动节）之后的第一个周日。结合日历信息，9月1日为劳动节（周一），其后的第一个周日是9月7日，与选项C的日历对应。 【12题详解】 根据文章第2段“After chores were done, she would help elderly neighbors with her grandmother, often taking along food and gifts. These experiences and her close relationship with her grandmother planted the seeds for a lifetime of helping the elderly.”可知，童年时花时间帮助老年邻居的经历，让McQuade萌生了一生帮助老人的想法。 【13题详解】 文章第4段“His plan fell through in the Senate, but McQuade didn’t get discouraged.”，句中but表示转折关系，说明该计划没有成功，由此可推知fell through意为“失败，落空”，即将祖父母节设为全国性节日的提案在参议院失败了。 【14题详解】 根据文章第5段“Although Grandparents Day began in the US, it is now celebrated in many other countries.”可知，祖父母节起源于美国，如今很多其他国家也庆祝这个节日，由此可推断它的影响力已经超出了美国。 【15题详解】 根据文章第2段“McQuade began caring for the elderly when she was a child. After chores were done, she would help elderly neighbors with her grandmother”和第4段“but McQuade didn’t get discouraged. After years of efforts, her hard work paid off.”可知，McQuade从小就主动帮助老人，心地善良；且为推动设立祖父母节坚持努力多年，十分有毅力。 B Many people may throw away the nuts (核) after eating fruits, but artists of nut carving (核雕) have instead collected them and turned them into artworks. “One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters, can be made into beautiful earrings and other artworks,” said Tan Wanhai, the top artist of Weifang nut carving. The history of nut carving might start from the Qing Dynasty (1636-1912). During that time, Wang Dayan, the best artist in the Palace Museum, spread the skill to the local people in Shandong province. Because of the difficult carving skills required and its rich artistic meanings, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008. “It’s hard to bring this kind of traditional art to life,” said Tan, the 48-year-old artist. “Every nut looks different before being carved,” Tan added. Artists have to study each nut to carefully plan out their artwork. Besides, according to Tan, they have to learn about some skills in painting and handwriting art from many traditional cultures. “In order to show folk stories from ancient times, I need to read many books to enrich myself.” “Artists in the past have been wise enough to turn common things into objects of beauty. In recent years, thanks to the creative ideas of artists in Weifang, nut carving artworks have been increasingly welcomed by people in China,” Tan said. “This popularity, in turn, has also attracted many young people to learn the traditional skills of nut carving, create new skills and even help to pass down the skills to future artists.” 16. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By using an artist’s word. B. By explaining what nut carving is. C. By describing its historical origin. D. By comparing different uses of nuts. 17. Why was Weifang nut carving listed as a national intangible cultural heritage? ①The traditional cultural values. ②Its rich artistic meanings. ③The high level of carving skills. ④The popularity around the world. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①②③ D. ①②④ 18. What can we learn from paragraph 4? A. Nut carving requires natural talent for drawing. B. Nut carving artists must copy traditional designs C. Artists use nuts of the same size to make nut carving. D. Nut carving artists should learn different traditional skills 19. What is the structure of this passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④/⑤ C. ①/②③④⑤ D. ①/②/③/④/⑤ 20. What will the writer talk about next? A. A traditional folk story. B. The history of nut carving. C. The development of nut carving. D. The disappearing of nut carving. 【答案】16. D 17. B 18. D 19. A 20. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了潍坊核雕的历史起源、技艺特点、传承现状及其作为非物质文化遗产的价值。 【16题详解】 文章首段将多数人吃完水果丢弃果核的行为，与核雕艺术家收集果核将其变为艺术品的做法进行对比，通过对比果核的不同用途引出核雕主题。 【17题详解】 根据第三段中“Because of the difficult carving skills required and its rich artistic meanings, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008.”可知，潍坊核雕因其高难度的雕刻技艺和丰富的艺术内涵被列为非物质文化遗产，对应②和③。 【18题详解】 根据第四段中“they have to learn about some skills in painting and handwriting art from many traditional cultures”可知，核雕艺术家需要学习绘画和书法等多种不同的传统技艺。 【19题详解】 本文第一段总起引出核雕主题，第二至四段分别介绍核雕的基本属性、历史地位与技艺要求，第五段收尾介绍核雕当下的受欢迎程度与传承发展情况，整体结构为①/②③④/⑤。 【20题详解】 文章最后一段提及当下核雕愈发受欢迎，吸引年轻人学习、创新技艺并传承该技艺，按照行文逻辑，下文最可能继续围绕核雕的发展相关内容展开。 C Over the past 100 years, an important idea has become popular in education. Before, people thought intelligence was inborn. But now, we know that intelligence can change with the right training. In the 19th century, psychologist Alfred Binet, who made the first intelligence tests, believed intelligence was fixed and tried to measure it. However, in the early 20th century, thinkers like John Dewey said every child’s intelligence could grow with a good environment. Dweck’s famous experiment divided 10-to-12-year-olds into two groups. One group was praised for being smart, while the other for working hard. The “effort-praised” group tried harder on later tasks, while the “smart-praised” group avoided challenges to protect their self-image. This showed that praising effort, not talent, helps students improve. However, schools often have difficulty in using growth mindset (思维模式) ideas effectively. Many focus too much on test scores and rankings, which actually encourage a “fixed mindset.” Some schools even create contradictions (矛盾) by talking about growth mindset while giving fixed grades based on performance Critics point out problems with growth mindset research. Studies trying to repeat Dweck’s experiments often fail. Psychologist Timothy Bates found that students with growth mindsets didn’t get better grades. Statistician (统计学家) Andrew Gelman questioned whether the research truly proved the theory Recent studies show growth mindset programs rarely improve grades. Posters and motivational speeches often fail. Instead, teaching practical skills (like writing essay introductions) and praising effort works better. True confidence comes from real achievements, not empty praise. Perhaps growth mindset works better as a teaching philosophy than a classroom tool. 21. What did Alfred Binet believe about intelligence? A. Intelligence was based on a person’s effort. B. Intelligence was something fixed and could be measured. C. Intelligence could be developed with the right environment. D. Every child’s intelligence was different and unchangeable. 22. In Carol Dweck’s experiment, what happened to the group praised for intelligence? A. They were more likely to work hard on future tasks. B. They took on more difficult tasks to prove their ability. C. They avoided tasks that might cause them to fail. D. They changed their mindset after the experiment. 23. How is Paragraph 3 developed? A. By stating a problem and explaining its causes. B. By comparing school’s past and present methods. C. By giving personal stories on fixed grades. D. By listing research steps to implement (实施) a growth mindset. 24. What might the author agree with? A. Motivational posters are the best way to teach. B. Fixed grades help students develop a growth mindset. C. Dweck’s experiments perfectly prove her theory. D. Teaching real skills is better than empty praise. 25. Which is the best title for the article? A. The History of Intelligence Tests B. Why Fixed Mindset Fails in Schools C. Growth Mindset: Hopes and Realities D. How to Praise Students Correctly 【答案】21. B 22. C 23. A 24. D 25. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章探讨了智力观念的转变，介绍了成长型思维模式的实验、在学校实施中的困难、受到的质疑以及更有效的教学方法。 【21题详解】 第一段提到“In the 19th century, psychologist Alfred Binet, who made the first intelligence tests, believed intelligence was fixed and tried to measure it.”，直接说明Binet认为智力是固定的，并且可以被测量。 【22题详解】 第二段提到“the ‘smart-praised’ group avoided challenges to protect their self-image.”，被夸奖聪明的小组为维护自我形象会避开挑战，也就是避开可能让他们失败的任务。 【23题详解】 第三段首先提出问题：学校很难有效运用成长型思维理念，之后解释原因：过度看重分数排名、评分方式和成长型思维理念互相矛盾。 【24题详解】 第五段提到 “Posters and motivational speeches often fail. Instead, teaching practical skills (like writing essay introductions) and praising effort works better.”，表明作者认为教授实用技能比空洞表扬效果更好。 【25题详解】 文章先介绍成长型思维的由来与Dweck实验带来的希望，再讲现实中学校实施困境、研究争议以及现实局限，围绕成长型思维的理想与现实展开，C项适合作标题。 第二节 短文填空 以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文的意思完整、连贯。 Self-confidence is the key to success. It means believing in ourselves and knowing that we have value. ____26____ That’s why confident people would like to speak up, try new things, and learn from mistakes. How can we build self-confidence? ____27____ We can build it by recognizing our strengths and celebrating our progress, even the small steps. Speaking kindly to ourselves and keeping a positive mindset (思维模式) also help. Instead of feeling bad about failures, we should see them as opportunities (机会) to learn and grow. ____28____ Support from family, friends, or teachers plays a big role in building confidence. Their encouragement helps us believe in ourselves and achieve our goals. However, social media can sometimes make us doubt ourselves by only showing the best parts of others’ lives. ____29____ Why does self-confidence matter? Self-confidence is more than just feeling good about ourselves. ____30____ With it, we are more likely to set clear goals, stay true to our values, and move forward even when life gets hard. A. How do others influence our confidence? B. It is about knowing our purpose and direction in life, too. C. With this belief, we feel brave and ready to face challenges. D.

Self-confidence is not something we are born with—it develops over time. 【答案】26. C 27. F 28. A 29. D 30. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍了自信的意义、培养方法与外界对自信的影响。 【26题详解】 上文“It means believing in ourselves and knowing that we have value.”提到，自信意味着相信自我价值；下文“That’s why confident people...from mistakes.”提到，自信的人更愿意表达、尝试新事物，并从错误中学习。C项“With this belief, we feel brave and ready to face challenges.”承上启下，指出拥有自信，我们才能勇敢地面对挑战。 【27题详解】 本段小标题“How can we build self-confidence?”提问如何建立自信，而本段下文介绍了培养自信的方法；F项“Self-confidence is not something we are born with—it develops over time.”指出自信不是天生的，而是后天培养的，与下文“We can build it”逻辑一致。 【28题详解】 空处是本段的小标题；本段主要讲述了家人、朋友的支持以及社交媒体对自信的影响；A项“How do others influence our confidence?”概括了段落主旨，适合做本段的小标题。 【29题详解】 上文“However, social media can sometimes make us doubt ourselves by only showing the best parts of others’ lives.”提到，社交媒体展示他人生活最好的一面容易引发自我怀疑；D项“Instead of comparing, we should focus on our own strengths.”建议不要比较，而应关注自身优势，承接上文，符合逻辑。 【30题详解】 上文“Self-confidence is more than just feeling good about ourselves.”提到，自信不仅是感觉良好；B项“It is about knowing our purpose and direction in life, too.”进一步说明自信还关乎了解生活目标和方向，与下文“With it, we are more likely to set clear goals”呼应。 第三节 信息匹配 下面的材料A-F是澳大利亚6个不同地区的著名景点的介绍，请根据以下5位不同人士不同的旅游需求，为他们匹配合适的游玩景点，并在答题卡上将相应的字母编号涂黑。 A.

McQuade began caring for the elderly when she was a child. After chores (家务) were done, she would help elderly neighbors with her grandmother, often taking along food and gifts. These experiences and her close relationship with her grandmother planted the seeds for a lifetime of helping the elderly. When McQuade grew up, she became a housewife. She took care of her kids and had many grandchildren. She believed that spending time with elderly loved ones was very important and wanted to create a holiday where families could enjoy themselves together. In the early 1970s, she started her journey to make the holiday a reality. She kept calling and writing letters to the local and state leaders until she finally got attention in 1973 from Senator Jennings Randolph. He introduced to the Senate (参议院) the idea of making Grandparents Day a national holiday. His plan fell through in the Senate, but McQuade didn’t get discouraged. After years of efforts, her hard work paid off. On August 3rd, 1978, the president officially made Grandparents Day a national holiday. He also stated how important it was to honor grandparents and understand the value of family. Although Grandparents Day began in the US, it is now celebrated in many other countries. In Germany, Grandparents Day is celebrated on the second Sunday in October. In Mexico, it is on August 28th, when children often prepare a special meal for their grandparents or give gifts to them. 11. When is Grandparents Day in the US this year? (2025) A. B. C. D. 12. Which experience made McQuade want to help old people all her life? A. Preparing meals for her grandma. B. Being raised by her grandparents. C. Going to small family parties often. D. Spending time with elderly neighbors as a kid. 13. What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 4 mean? A. Grandparents Day was allowed to be celebrated. B. Making Grandparents Day a national holiday failed. C. The Senate delayed the decision on Grandparents Day. D. Jennings Randolph passed away from working too hard. 14. What can we infer about Grandparents Day today? A. Its original meaning has changed. B. Its influence has gone beyond the US. C. Other countries value it more than the US. D. Other countries celebrate it at the same time as the US. 15. Which of the following can best describe Marian McQuade? A. Kind and persistent. B. Brave and intelligent. C. Careful and imaginative. D. Strict and independent. B Many people may throw away the nuts (核) after eating fruits, but artists of nut carving (核雕) have instead collected them and turned them into artworks. “One nut, from 0.8 to 6 centimeters, can be made into beautiful earrings and other artworks,” said Tan Wanhai, the top artist of Weifang nut carving. The history of nut carving might start from the Qing Dynasty (1636-1912). During that time, Wang Dayan, the best artist in the Palace Museum, spread the skill to the local people in Shandong province. Because of the difficult carving skills required and its rich artistic meanings, Weifang nut carving was listed as a national intangible cultural heritage in 2008. “It’s hard to bring this kind of traditional art to life,” said Tan, the 48-year-old artist. “Every nut looks different before being carved,” Tan added. Artists have to study each nut to carefully plan out their artwork. Besides, according to Tan, they have to learn about some skills in painting and handwriting art from many traditional cultures. “In order to show folk stories from ancient times, I need to read many books to enrich myself.” “Artists in the past have been wise enough to turn common things into objects of beauty. In recent years, thanks to the creative ideas of artists in Weifang, nut carving artworks have been increasingly welcomed by people in China,” Tan said. “This popularity, in turn, has also attracted many young people to learn the traditional skills of nut carving, create new skills and even help to pass down the skills to future artists.” 16. How does the writer introduce the topic? A. By using an artist’s word. B. By explaining what nut carving is. C. By describing its historical origin. D. By comparing different uses of nuts. 17. Why was Weifang nut carving listed as a national intangible cultural heritage? ①The traditional cultural values. ②Its rich artistic meanings. ③The high level of carving skills. ④The popularity around the world. A. ①② B. ②③ C. ①②③ D. ①②④ 18. What can we learn from paragraph 4? A. Nut carving requires natural talent for drawing. B. Nut carving artists must copy traditional designs C. Artists use nuts of the same size to make nut carving. D. Nut carving artists should learn different traditional skills 19. What is the structure of this passage? A. ①/②③④/⑤ B. ①②/③④/⑤ C. ①/②③④⑤ D. ①/②/③/④/⑤ 20. What will the writer talk about next? A. A traditional folk story. B. The history of nut carving. C. The development of nut carving. D. The disappearing of nut carving. C Over the past 100 years, an important idea has become popular in education. Before, people thought intelligence was inborn. But now, we know that intelligence can change with the right training. In the 19th century, psychologist Alfred Binet, who made the first intelligence tests, believed intelligence was fixed and tried to measure it. However, in the early 20th century, thinkers like John Dewey said every child’s intelligence could grow with a good environment. Dweck’s famous experiment divided 10-to-12-year-olds into two groups. One group was praised for being smart, while the other for working hard. The “effort-praised” group tried harder on later tasks, while the “smart-praised” group avoided challenges to protect their self-image. This showed that praising effort, not talent, helps students improve. However, schools often have difficulty in using growth mindset (思维模式) ideas effectively. Many focus too much on test scores and rankings, which actually encourage a “fixed mindset.” Some schools even create contradictions (矛盾) by talking about growth mindset while giving fixed grades based on performance Critics point out problems with growth mindset research. Studies trying to repeat Dweck’s experiments often fail. Psychologist Timothy Bates found that students with growth mindsets didn’t get better grades. Statistician (统计学家) Andrew Gelman questioned whether the research truly proved the theory Recent studies show growth mindset programs rarely improve grades. Posters and motivational speeches often fail. Instead, teaching practical skills (like writing essay introductions) and praising effort works better. True confidence comes from real achievements, not empty praise. Perhaps growth mindset works better as a teaching philosophy than a classroom tool. 21. What did Alfred Binet believe about intelligence? A. Intelligence was based on a person’s effort. B. Intelligence was something fixed and could be measured. C. Intelligence could be developed with the right environment. D. Every child’s intelligence was different and unchangeable. 22. In Carol Dweck’s experiment, what happened to the group praised for intelligence? A. They were more likely to work hard on future tasks. B. They took on more difficult tasks to prove their ability. C. They avoided tasks that might cause them to fail. D. They changed their mindset after the experiment. 23. How is Paragraph 3 developed? A. By stating a problem and explaining its causes. B. By comparing school’s past and present methods. C. By giving personal stories on fixed grades. D. By listing research steps to implement (实施) a growth mindset. 24. What might the author agree with? A. Motivational posters are the best way to teach. B. Fixed grades help students develop a growth mindset. C. Dweck’s experiments perfectly prove her theory. D. Teaching real skills is better than empty praise. 25. Which is the best title for the article? A. The History of Intelligence Tests B. Why Fixed Mindset Fails in Schools C. Growth Mindset: Hopes and Realities D. How to Praise Students Correctly 第二节 短文填空 以下是一则短文，请阅读全文，并从下列六个句子中选择五个还原到短文中，使短文的意思完整、连贯。 Self-confidence is the key to success.
