二、阅读理解
(本题7.5分)Popular sports like ball games and chess always get lots of attention. However, there are some special sports that not many people know about. They are just as exciting! These sports can cheer you up and show us what sports are really for: having fun! Let’s learn about four interesting sports.
Quidditch
This sport comes from Harry Potter written by J.K. Rowling, and it has become a real sport played around the world. Each team has seven players. All players must put a broom between their legs during the whole game. It mixes skills from rugby and dodgeball. Since people play it without magic, it is also called “Muggle Quidditch”.
Yubi Lakpi
It is a traditional sport from India. It looks like football, but players use a coconut instead of a ball. Two teams try to carry the coconut to the other team’s goal. To make the game harder, players put oil on their bodies. This makes their bodies slippery, so others cannot catch them easily.
Zorbing
Have you ever thought of rolling down hills inside a big plastic ball? That is zorbing. It first appeared in New Zealand in the 1990s and soon became a popular outdoor activity. People usually play it on gentle slopes or flat ground. It is more for fun than for winning games. It is great to play with your friends.
Toe Wrestling
Believe it or not, this is a real sport and it even has world matches. It is similar to arm wrestling. Two players try to hold down each other’s toes for three seconds. They play with left feet and right feet in turns. The winner is decided after three rounds. Just kick off your shoes and socks, and let’s get started!
21.(2.5分)What must Quidditch players do throughout the game?
A.Control the team with magic. B.Pass a rugby ball to other folks.
C.Hold a broom between their legs. D.Obey rules from the Harry Potter books.
22.(2.5分)How do players make it difficult for the opposing team in Yubi Lakpi?
A.By making the ground wet.
B.By putting oil on their bodies.
C.By making the coconut shiny.
D.By standing in front of the opponents.
23.(2.5分)What do Zorbing and Toe Wrestling have in common?
A.Both take place on gentle slopes. B.Both involve body contact.
C.Both are world championship games. D.Both are mainly for entertainment.
(本题10分)Alex de Minaur, an Australian professional tennis player, has impressed the tennis world with a beautiful act for his opponent (对手) after the Washington final. De Minaur saved three championship points to win the 10th ATP title of his career, defeating (战胜) Spanish player Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
Fokina was heartbroken after losing three championship points in the third set — the last one came when de Minaur made an amazing effort to survive. The Spaniard has never won a title at the ATP level, and has now lost in two finals.
Fokina cried after the final point and hid his face in his towel (毛巾). De Minaur noticed his opponent’s low spirits and at once went to comfort him.
The Aussie was seen sitting next to Fokina before resting an arm around him and offering some words of encouragement. Tennis fans were blown away by de Minaur’s act, which came before he’d celebrated the victory (胜利).
De Minaur also offered some kind words for Fokina in his victory speech, saying: “You’re way too good not to have one of these victories. It’s coming for sure. You deserved (值得) it today. I just got lucky. You are a great competitor and player. This is not the end.”
Davidovich Fokina also praised de Minaur, saying the Australian “deserved the win”. “He was fighting for every ball,” he added.
The beautiful moment between the pair made the tennis world fall in love with de Minaur even more. One person wrote online: “Hard not to feel for Alejandro Davidovich Fokina today and hard not to admire how kind this was of Alex de Minaur.” Another commented: “I have a newfound respect for Alex de Minaur after he comforted Fokina. He is a truly humble (谦逊的) man.”
24.(2.5分)What happened in the third set of the Washington final?
A.Fokina lost his lead with regret. B.One of the players got hurt badly.

25.(2.5分)What did de Minaur do right after the match?
A.He quickly celebrated his victory. B.He left without speaking to Fokina.
C.He comforted his opponent right away. D.He gave a speech to thank the audience.
26.(2.5分)What does the underlined phrase “blown away” in paragraph 4 mean?

C.Interested and curious. D.Surprised and impressed.
27.(2.5分)What can we learn from the text?

C.Courage turns challenges into chances. D.Experience helps to encourage excellence.
(本题10分)Nearly everyone in the world has heard of the Olympic Games, and many people are familiar with the Paralympic Games, but very few know about the equally important Transplant Games. Held every year, these games celebrate the courage of transplant recipients (接受者) and the selflessness of donors’ families.
According to a news release from the Sheffield City Council, the games — which the city will host in the summer of 2026 — are the main event for the Transplant Active charity, which aims to raise awareness of organ (器官) donation and inspire recipients to stay healthy and active.
A blog on Westfield Health’s website explains that over 7,000 people in Britain are waiting for organ transplants now. On average, about three people die every day while waiting, but one donor can save more than nine lives.
The lack of donors still exists even though Britain introduced an “opt-out” organ donation law (默认捐献制) in 2020 — everyone is a potential donor unless they say otherwise. However, it is their families that decide whether to donate their loved ones’ organs, and many people never talk with their families about their wishes.
That’s why the Transplant Games are so important. They draw attention to organ donation and show that recipients can live happy, full lives. Anyone healthy who attends at least one team training camp can join.
During the 2025 Games in Oxford, a five-year-old liver (肝) recipient took part in the obstacle race, the 25-meter sprint, and the ball throw. Another participant, who received a kidney at age 13 and is now 36, trains for the Games every year.
Then there is Jenny Glithero, who had an emergency liver transplant. Six months after learning to breathe again, she was back on a bike, training for the Games. She told Positive News, “Why do I do this? Because I’ve been given the gift of life. It is a way to honor my donor. Some people go to church. I get on the bike.”
28.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the Transplant Games?
A.To honor outstanding athletes. B.To attract tourists to Sheffield.
C.To compete with the Olympics. D.To encourage organ donation.
29.(2.5分)What can we learn about organ donation in Britain?
A.Its law works perfectly. B.Donors’ choices are final.
C.Few patients need transplants. D.Demand is greater than supply.
30.(2.5分)What can be inferred from the examples in paragraphs 6 and 7?
A.Recipients rebuild life actively. B.Organ failure affects all age groups.
C.Athletes must be young and energetic. D.Sports games require professional skills.
31.(2.5分)What is the main focus of the text?
A.The importance of Transplant Games. B.The popularity of international games.
C.The development of British sports laws. D.The new method to solve organ shortage.
(本题10分)Have you ever wondered what astronauts eat in space and how those recipes (食谱) are developed? Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements.
Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups.
This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.
Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.
Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy.
32.(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions?
A.They send recipes to the ISS. B.They receive next year’s theme.
C.They compete at the host center. D.They get recipes checked by experts.
33.(2.5分)What can we infer about this year’s competition?
A.It valued taste over dietary needs.
B.It closed the final round to the public.
C.It mixed practical and academic work.
D.It required individual work in the finals.
34.(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space?
A.The limited space for cooking. B.The low amount of salt allowed.
C.The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D.The strict food processing procedure.
35.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To present challenges in space. B.To promote new food products.
C.To announce competition results. D.To introduce a cooking competition.
(本题12.5分)The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing.
Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s.
37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport.
This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork.
It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points.
These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion. 40(2.5分) They also bring fresh excitement to the Games, attracting new audiences and showcasing the athletes’ skills.
A.Another new event is mixed team skeleton.
B.Two women from the same country team up on a single sled.
C.Athletes must navigate sharp turns and maintain high speeds.
D.Ski mountaineering requires both endurance and technical skill.
E.Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year.
F.This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics.
G.They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats.

六、书面表达
67.(本题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 had always been a shy girl, the kind who would sit quietly in the back row and pray the teacher never called her name. She hated speaking in front of people and would avoid attention at all costs. Her best friend, Mia, was the complete opposite — outgoing, confident, and never afraid to express herself, whether it was debating in class or singing loudly in the hallway.
One day, the school announced a public speaking competition. The winner would receive a golden trophy and a chance to represent the school at the city level. To everyone’s surprise, Mia secretly signed Emma up for the competition.
“You need to step out of your comfort zone, Emma!” Mia said excitedly, her eyes sparkling with encouragement.
Emma was absolutely terrified. “I can’t do this, Mia! I’ll forget everything on stage. Everyone will laugh at me. I’ll make a total fool of myself,” she whispered, almost in tears.
But Mia wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Every day after school, she dragged Emma to the empty music room and made her practice — from choosing a meaningful topic to working on eye contact and voice control. Mia even recorded Emma’s speeches and played them back so she could improve. Emma slowly grew better, pronouncing each word more clearly and gesturing more naturally, though the deep fear never completely left her.
Finally, the competition day arrived. As Emma stood backstage behind the heavy red curtains, her heart was pounding wildly. She peeked at the crowded hall full of students and teachers, and her legs began to shake uncontrollably. Then she heard the host announce clearly, “Next up: Emma.”
She walked onto the stage, but as soon as she saw hundreds of eyes staring at her, her mind went completely blank — not a single word remained.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡上的相应位置作答。
Paragraph 1: At that moment, she saw Mia, holding a small sign: “You’ve practiced this a hundred times. I believe in you.”
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: After the competition, Emma walked off the stage with tears in her eyes — but this time, they were tears of joy.

(本题7.5分)Popular sports like ball games and chess always get lots of attention. However, there are some special sports that not many people know about. They are just as exciting! These sports can cheer you up and show us what sports are really for: having fun! Let’s learn about four interesting sports.
Quidditch
This sport comes from Harry Potter written by J.K. Rowling, and it has become a real sport played around the world. Each team has seven players. All players must put a broom between their legs during the whole game. It mixes skills from rugby and dodgeball. Since people play it without magic, it is also called “Muggle Quidditch”.
Yubi Lakpi
It is a traditional sport from India. It looks like football, but players use a coconut instead of a ball. Two teams try to carry the coconut to the other team’s goal. To make the game harder, players put oil on their bodies. This makes their bodies slippery, so others cannot catch them easily.
Zorbing
Have you ever thought of rolling down hills inside a big plastic ball? That is zorbing. It first appeared in New Zealand in the 1990s and soon became a popular outdoor activity. People usually play it on gentle slopes or flat ground. It is more for fun than for winning games. It is great to play with your friends.
Toe Wrestling
Believe it or not, this is a real sport and it even has world matches. It is similar to arm wrestling. Two players try to hold down each other’s toes for three seconds. They play with left feet and right feet in turns. The winner is decided after three rounds. Just kick off your shoes and socks, and let’s get started!
21.(2.5分)What must Quidditch players do throughout the game?
A.Control the team with magic. B.Pass a rugby ball to other folks.
C.Hold a broom between their legs. D.Obey rules from the Harry Potter books.
22.(2.5分)How do players make it difficult for the opposing team in Yubi Lakpi?
A.By making the ground wet.
B.By putting oil on their bodies.
C.By making the coconut shiny.
D.By standing in front of the opponents.
23.(2.5分)What do Zorbing and Toe Wrestling have in common?
A.Both take place on gentle slopes. B.Both involve body contact.
C.Both are world championship games. D.Both are mainly for entertainment.
【答案】21.C 22.B 23.D
【导语】主要介绍四种鲜为人知的特色趣味运动,分别讲解魁地奇、椰子球、滚人球和掰脚趾大赛的玩法与起源。
【详解】21.细节理解题。根据Quidditch部分中的“Each team has seven players. All players must put a broom between their legs during the whole game.(每队有七名球员。每名球员必须自始至终在两腿之间夹着一把扫帚。)”可知,魁地奇运动员整场比赛都要双腿夹扫帚。
22.细节理解题。根据Yubi Lakpi部分中的“To make the game harder, players put oil on their bodies. This makes their bodies slippery, so others cannot catch them easily.(为增加比赛难度,选手会在身上涂抹油,这会让身体变得滑腻,对手很难抓住自己。)”可知,在尤比拉克皮比赛中,球员们通过在自己身上涂油来让对方难以抓住自己,从而给对方制造困难。
23.细节理解题。根据Zorbing部分中的“It is more for fun than for winning games.(这项运动重在玩乐,而非争夺胜负。)”以及Toe Wrestling部分中的“Believe it or not, this is a real sport and it even has world matches. It is similar to arm wrestling.(信不信由你,这是一项正规运动,甚至设有世锦赛,它和掰手腕玩法相近。)”可知,滚人球主打休闲玩乐,掰脚趾大赛同样以趣味体验为主,二者共同点是主要用来消遣娱乐。
(本题10分)Alex de Minaur, an Australian professional tennis player, has impressed the tennis world with a beautiful act for his opponent (对手) after the Washington final. De Minaur saved three championship points to win the 10th ATP title of his career, defeating (战胜) Spanish player Alejandro Davidovich Fokina.
Fokina was heartbroken after losing three championship points in the third set — the last one came when de Minaur made an amazing effort to survive. The Spaniard has never won a title at the ATP level, and has now lost in two finals.
Fokina cried after the final point and hid his face in his towel (毛巾). De Minaur noticed his opponent’s low spirits and at once went to comfort him.
The Aussie was seen sitting next to Fokina before resting an arm around him and offering some words of encouragement. Tennis fans were blown away by de Minaur’s act, which came before he’d celebrated the victory (胜利).
De Minaur also offered some kind words for Fokina in his victory speech, saying: “You’re way too good not to have one of these victories. It’s coming for sure. You deserved (值得) it today. I just got lucky. You are a great competitor and player. This is not the end.”
Davidovich Fokina also praised de Minaur, saying the Australian “deserved the win”. “He was fighting for every ball,” he added.
The beautiful moment between the pair made the tennis world fall in love with de Minaur even more. One person wrote online: “Hard not to feel for Alejandro Davidovich Fokina today and hard not to admire how kind this was of Alex de Minaur.” Another commented: “I have a newfound respect for Alex de Minaur after he comforted Fokina. He is a truly humble (谦逊的) man.”
24.(2.5分)What happened in the third set of the Washington final?
A.Fokina lost his lead with regret. B.One of the players got hurt badly.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了澳网选手德米纳尔在华盛顿决赛险胜福基纳后,先安慰失落的对手还在致辞中鼓励他,其善举获对手称赞和球迷的高度敬佩与喜爱。
【详解】24.细节理解题。根据第二段“Fokina was heartbroken after losing three championship points in the third set — the last one came when de Minaur made an amazing effort to survive. The Spaniard has never won a title at the ATP level, and has now lost in two finals.(福基纳在第三盘比赛中损失了三个冠军点,这让他非常伤心——最后一分是在德米纳尔奋力拼搏后才得以保住的。这位西班牙选手从未在ATP赛事中赢得过冠军,如今他已经连续两次在决赛中失利)”可知,华盛顿决赛第三局,福基纳遗憾地失去了领先优势。故选A。
25.细节理解题。根据第三段“De Minaur noticed “his” opponent’s low spirits and at once went to comfort him.(德米纳尔察觉到“他的”对手情绪低落,于是立刻前去安慰他)”可知,比赛结束后德米纳尔立刻安慰了对手。故选C。
26.词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“The Aussie was seen sitting next to Fokina before resting an arm around him and offering some words of encouragement.(只见这位澳大利亚选手坐在福基纳身旁,随后他伸出一只胳膊搂住他,并给了他一些鼓励的话语)”以及后文“which came before he’d celebrated the victory(这一幕发生在他庆祝胜利之前)”可知,德米纳尔未先庆祝胜利,反而第一时间安慰落败的对手,这一暖心举动超出球迷预期,结合后文球迷对其的夸赞与敬佩,故划线词意思是“令人惊讶且印象深刻”。故选D。
27.细节理解题。根据最后一段“The beautiful moment between the pair made the tennis world fall in love with de Minaur even more. One person wrote online: “Hard not to feel for Alejandro Davidovich Fokina today and hard not to admire how kind this was of Alex de Minaur.” Another commented: “I have a newfound respect for Alex de Minaur after he comforted Fokina. He is a truly humble (谦逊的) man.”(两人之间这暖心的瞬间,让整个网坛更加喜爱德米纳尔。有人在网上写道:“今日实在忍不住为亚历杭德罗・达维多维奇・福基纳感到惋惜,也不由得敬佩亚历克斯・德米纳尔的这份善良。” 还有人评论道:“德米纳尔安慰福基纳的举动,让我对他生出了新的敬意。他是个真正谦逊的人。”)”可知,故事告诉我们尊重和关爱赢得真正的高度尊重。故选B。
(本题10分)Nearly everyone in the world has heard of the Olympic Games, and many people are familiar with the Paralympic Games, but very few know about the equally important Transplant Games. Held every year, these games celebrate the courage of transplant recipients (接受者) and the selflessness of donors’ families.
According to a news release from the Sheffield City Council, the games — which the city will host in the summer of 2026 — are the main event for the Transplant Active charity, which aims to raise awareness of organ (器官) donation and inspire recipients to stay healthy and active.
A blog on Westfield Health’s website explains that over 7,000 people in Britain are waiting for organ transplants now. On average, about three people die every day while waiting, but one donor can save more than nine lives.
The lack of donors still exists even though Britain introduced an “opt-out” organ donation law (默认捐献制) in 2020 — everyone is a potential donor unless they say otherwise. However, it is their families that decide whether to donate their loved ones’ organs, and many people never talk with their families about their wishes.
That’s why the Transplant Games are so important. They draw attention to organ donation and show that recipients can live happy, full lives. Anyone healthy who attends at least one team training camp can join.
During the 2025 Games in Oxford, a five-year-old liver (肝) recipient took part in the obstacle race, the 25-meter sprint, and the ball throw. Another participant, who received a kidney at age 13 and is now 36, trains for the Games every year.
Then there is Jenny Glithero, who had an emergency liver transplant. Six months after learning to breathe again, she was back on a bike, training for the Games. She told Positive News, “Why do I do this? Because I’ve been given the gift of life. It is a way to honor my donor. Some people go to church. I get on the bike.”
28.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the Transplant Games?
A.To honor outstanding athletes. B.To attract tourists to Sheffield.
C.To compete with the Olympics. D.To encourage organ donation.
29.(2.5分)What can we learn about organ donation in Britain?
A.Its law works perfectly. B.Donors’ choices are final.
C.Few patients need transplants. D.Demand is greater than supply.
30.(2.5分)What can be inferred from the examples in paragraphs 6 and 7?
A.Recipients rebuild life actively. B.Organ failure affects all age groups.
C.Athletes must be young and energetic. D.Sports games require professional skills.
31.(2.5分)What is the main focus of the text?
A.The importance of Transplant Games. B.The popularity of international games.
C.The development of British sports laws. D.The new method to solve organ shortage.
【答案】28.D 29.D 30.A 31.A
【导语】主要介绍器官移植运动会的举办目的、英国器官捐献现状,并用实例说明赛事对器官移植者的积极意义。
【详解】28.细节理解题。根据第二段中的“According to a news release from the Sheffield City Council, the games — which the city will host in the summer of 2026 — are the main event for the Transplant Active charity, which aims to raise awareness of organ (器官) donation and inspire recipients to stay healthy and active.(据谢菲尔德市议会发布的新闻通告,该市将于2026年夏季承办的这项赛事是移植活力慈善机构的核心活动,该机构旨在提升器官捐献的公众认知,并激励器官移植受捐者保持健康、积极的生活状态。)”可知,移植运动会的主要目的是倡导器官捐献。
29.推理判断题。根据第三段中的“A blog on Westfield Health’s website explains that over 7,000 people in Britain are waiting for organ transplants now. On average, about three people die every day while waiting, but one donor can save more than nine lives.(韦斯特菲尔德健康保险公司官网的一篇博文介绍:英国目前有七千余人等待器官移植。平均每天约有三人在等候期间离世,而一名器官捐献者能够挽救九条以上生命。)”可知,英国器官需求远大于捐献供给。
30.推理判断题。根据第六段中的“During the 2025 Games in Oxford, a five-year-old liver (肝) recipient took part in the obstacle race, the 25-meter sprint, and the ball throw.(2025年牛津赛事中,一名五岁肝移植患儿参与障碍赛、短跑和投球项目。)”以及第七段中的“Six months after learning to breathe again, she was back on a bike, training for the Games.(珍妮术后六个月就骑车备战赛事。)”可知,器官移植受捐者积极重塑新生活。
31.主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其第五段中的“That’s why the Transplant Games are so important. They draw attention to organ donation and show that recipients can live happy, full lives.(这正是移植运动会的重要意义:它提升器官捐献关注度,展现受捐者能够拥有圆满人生。)”可知,文章围绕移植运动会的重要作用展开论述。
(本题10分)Have you ever wondered what astronauts eat in space and how those recipes (食谱) are developed? Every year, HUNCH challenges high schools around the world to develop delicious recipes to support astronauts in space. The HUNCH Culinary (烹饪的) Competition provides students the opportunity to create dishes for astronauts on the International Space Station (ISS). Students must create tasty recipes following a specific food processing procedure and meeting certain dietary requirements.
Each year, high schools receive a theme (主题), and students develop recipes accordingly. Then, student groups present their works to local space centers for taste tests conducted by industry professionals and center staff. After those early competitions, student teams with the highest scores from across the country are invited to Space Center Houston, which has hosted the event for 11 years. During the finals, all visitors to the center are invited to cheer on student groups.
This year’s dish theme was traditional Mexican food: tacos. Ten high school culinary teams were selected to compete in the final round of the competition, which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.
Space Center Houston President and CEO William T. Harris said students had to consider “the chemistry behind the dish, food preservation, and dietary needs” when making their dishes. He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.
Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations. The winning dish will be processed by the Johnson Space Center Food Lab and sent to the ISS for astronauts to enjoy.
32.(2.5分)What happens to the best-performing students after the early competitions?
A.They send recipes to the ISS. B.They receive next year’s theme.
C.They compete at the host center. D.They get recipes checked by experts.
33.(2.5分)What can we infer about this year’s competition?
A.It valued taste over dietary needs.
B.It closed the final round to the public.
C.It mixed practical and academic work.
D.It required individual work in the finals.
34.(2.5分)What makes it hard to create tasty food in space?
A.The limited space for cooking. B.The low amount of salt allowed.
C.The difficulty in keeping food fresh. D.The strict food processing procedure.
35.(2.5分)What is the main purpose of the text?
A.To present challenges in space. B.To promote new food products.
C.To announce competition results. D.To introduce a cooking competition.
【答案】32.C 33.C 34.B 35.D

33.推理判断题。根据文章第三段“...which celebrated the mix of science and culinary creativity. Their work was judged by Food Lab staff, industry professionals, the ISS program office, and astronauts based on quality, taste, research paper, and presentation video.(……该赛事融合了科学与烹饪创造力。参赛作品会由食品实验室工作人员、行业专家、国际空间站项目办公室和宇航员根据菜品品质、口味、研究论文和展示视频进行评分。)”,结合第五段“Through this program, students build culinary skills while developing experience in research and professional presentations.(通过该项目,学生们在锻炼烹饪技能的同时,也积累了研究和专业展示的经验。)”可知,今年的比赛结合了实践操作与学术工作。
34.细节理解题。根据文章第四段“He added that the strict limit on salt intake in space makes it difficult to achieve rich taste, so students must find other ways to season their recipes.(他补充说,太空中严格的盐摄入限制使得食物很难拥有浓郁的风味,因此学生必须找到其他方法来给食谱调味。)”可知,允许摄入的盐量低导致太空美食难以制作。
35.推理判断题。通读全文可知,文章围绕HUNCH烹饪大赛展开,介绍了该赛事的创办目的、举办流程、相关要求等内容,因此本文的主要目的是介绍这项烹饪比赛。
(本题12.5分)The Winter Olympics will introduce several new events, with ski mountaineering making its first appearance as a new sport. Known as “skimo”, it requires athletes to hike up a mountain before skiing down. Three events will be held: a women’s sprint, a men’s sprint, and a mixed relay. The competition will take place in Bormio, Italy, at the same site used for Alpine skiing.
Other new events are also being added. These are variations of existing sports and aim to give more athletes, especially women, a chance to compete. One such event is dual moguls (雪上技巧). Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial (空中的) tricks. 36(2.5分) Traditional moguls have been part of the Winter Games since the 1990s.
37(2.5分) This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport.
This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear. 38(2.5分) They race down the track feet-first on the same sled. This event highlights the importance of teamwork.
It’s not easy for teams to qualify for the Games. The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December. 39(2.5分) The pressure was intense, as it was the last chance for teams to earn Olympic ranking points.
These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion. 40(2.5分) They also bring fresh excitement to the Games, attracting new audiences and showcasing the athletes’ skills.
A.Another new event is mixed team skeleton.
B.Two women from the same country team up on a single sled.
C.Athletes must navigate sharp turns and maintain high speeds.
D.Ski mountaineering requires both endurance and technical skill.

【详解】36.前文“One such event is dual moguls. Two skiers compete side by side on a bumpy course, performing aerial tricks.(其中一种项目是双人雪上技巧赛。两名滑雪运动员并肩在崎岖不平的赛道上比赛,完成空中技巧动作。)”提及新项目“双人雪上技巧”,设空处应就此项目继续介绍。选项E“Both men’s and women’s dual moguls will be featured this year.(今年将设有男子和女子双人雪上技巧项目。)”承接了前文话题,符合分析。故选E项。
37.根据后文“This event pairs one man and one woman from the same country. They race down an ice track head-first on a small sled. This format adds a new dynamic to the sport.(这项赛事将来自同一国家的一男一女选手配对在一起。他们头朝前俯卧在一辆小型钢架雪车上,在冰道上疾驰而下。这种形式为这项运动增添了新的活力。)”可知,该段在介绍一项新的比赛项目,且为男女混合项目。选项A“Another new event is mixed team skeleton.(另一项新增项目是混合团体钢架雪车。)”符合项目描述。故选A项。
38.根据前文“This year also marks the first time women’s doubles luge will appear.(今年也是女子双人雪橇项目首次亮相的一年。)”可知,该部分讲述“女子双人雪橇项目”,设空处应讲述其具体规则。选项B“Two women from the same country team up on a single sled.(两名来自同一国家的女子一起坐在一张雪橇上。)”符合对女子双人雪橇的项目的规则描述,与前文衔接自然。故选B项。
39.前文“The U.S. team narrowly qualified for the Games in a high-stakes race in Utah in early December.(美国队在12月初于犹他州举行的一场竞争激烈的比赛中以微弱优势成功获得了参赛资格。)”提及美国队在12月犹他州的关键赛事中惊险晋级,获得冬奥会比赛资格,由此推知,设空处应是需要将12月犹他州的关键赛事与冬奥会关联表述一下,以使读者更加清晰。选项F“This was the final opportunity for teams to secure their spot in the Olympics.(这(赛事)是各队确保获得奥运会参赛资格的最后机会了。)”中“This”指代前文犹他州赛事,解释了其与冬奥会的关系,符合语境。故选F项。
40.前文“These additions show the Winter Olympics’ commitment to evolution and inclusion.(这些新增内容彰显了冬奥会对于不断发展和包容性的追求。)”提出了新增项目体现了冬奥会的发展与包容性,设空处应继续补充新增项目的其他积极意义。选项G“They offer a platform for athletes to demonstrate their abilities in new formats.(它们为运动员提供了一个展示自身能力的新平台,让他们的表现以全新的形式呈现出来。)”为积极意义表述,主语“They”呼应前文主语“These additions”,在句意上承接前文主题,符合逻辑。故选G项。

【答案】
56.organized 57.have hosted 58.attracting 59.fans 60.their 61.to create 62.which 63.eventually 64.an 65.in
【导语】介绍了2026年由美国、加拿大和墨西哥联合举办的国际足联世界杯。阐述了此次世界杯的特殊之处,包括三国联合主办的模式、赛事规模,还提及主办国为呈现完美赛事所做的努力,以及世界杯在文化交流方面的重要意义。
【详解】56.考查非谓语动词。句意:2026年国际足联世界杯由美国、加拿大和墨西哥联合举办,是一项具有历史意义的体育赛事。分析句子结构可知,本句已有谓语动词is,此处应用非谓语动词,The 2026 FIFA World Cup与organize之间是被动关系,所以用过去分词organized作后置定语。
57.考查固定句型中的动词时态。句意:这是首次由三个国家共同举办世界杯,为全球足球文化注入了新的活力。It is the first time that...是固定句型,that从句中通常用现在完成时,其结构为“have/has +过去分词”,主语three countries是复数,所以用have hosted。
58.考查非谓语动词。句意:2026年世界杯有48支球队参赛,超过100场比赛,吸引了全球数十亿足球爱好者。分析句子结构,本句已有谓语动词features,此处应用非谓语动词,The 2026 World Cup与attract之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词attracting作状语,表自然而然的结果。
59.考查名词复数。句意:许多足球迷期待观看精彩的比赛,并为他们喜爱的球队加油助威。fan是可数名词,根据前面的Many可知,此处应用复数形式fans。
60.考查形容词性物主代词。句意:许多足球迷期待观看精彩的比赛,并为他们喜爱的球队加油助威。此处修饰名词favorite teams,应用形容词性物主代词their,表示“他们的”。
61.考查非谓语动词。句意:为了呈现一场完美的赛事,三个主办国紧密合作,打造一场精彩的足球盛宴。此处用动词不定式作目的状语,表示目的是打造精彩的足球盛宴。故填to create。
62.考查定语从句。句意:官方比赛用球“TRIONDA”代表了三个国家的共同努力,最终被选为2026年世界杯的比赛用球。此处为关系词引导的非限制性定语从句,先行词是“TRIONDA”,指物,关系词在从句中作主语,所以用关系代词which。
63.考查副词。句意:官方比赛用球“TRIONDA”代表了三个国家的共同努力,最终被选为2026年世界杯的比赛用球。此处修饰动词adopted,应用副词eventually,意为“最终”。
64.考查冠词。句意:这场盛大的体育赛事是一个重要的文化交流机会。chance为可数名词单数,此处表示泛指“一个重要的机会”,且important是以元音音素开头的单词,所以用不定冠词an。
65.考查固定短语。句意:友好的足球比赛总能让来自不同国家的人们建立更紧密的友谊。result in为固定短语,意为“导致,造成”,符合语境。

Sports Shape Souls
Beyond strengthening our bodies, sports play a vital role in refining our character and shaping our inner spirits, which I have realized through my own sports experience.
I have kept long-distance running for years. At first, exhausted by continuous tiredness, I often wanted to give up. Nevertheless, I insisted on daily training and never backed down. Gradually, I became more disciplined and strong-willed. Whenever I encounter academic difficulties, the persistent spirit gained from running motivates me to move forward bravely.
In short, sports truly polish our souls. The precious qualities it brings will equip us with enough courage to face future challenges in life and study.

六、书面表达
67.(本题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 had always been a shy girl, the kind who would sit quietly in the back row and pray the teacher never called her name. She hated speaking in front of people and would avoid attention at all costs. Her best friend, Mia, was the complete opposite — outgoing, confident, and never afraid to express herself, whether it was debating in class or singing loudly in the hallway.
One day, the school announced a public speaking competition. The winner would receive a golden trophy and a chance to represent the school at the city level. To everyone’s surprise, Mia secretly signed Emma up for the competition.
“You need to step out of your comfort zone, Emma!” Mia said excitedly, her eyes sparkling with encouragement.
Emma was absolutely terrified. “I can’t do this, Mia! I’ll forget everything on stage. Everyone will laugh at me. I’ll make a total fool of myself,” she whispered, almost in tears.
But Mia wouldn’t take no for an answer.
Every day after school, she dragged Emma to the empty music room and made her practice — from choosing a meaningful topic to working on eye contact and voice control. Mia even recorded Emma’s speeches and played them back so she could improve. Emma slowly grew better, pronouncing each word more clearly and gesturing more naturally, though the deep fear never completely left her.
Finally, the competition day arrived. As Emma stood backstage behind the heavy red curtains, her heart was pounding wildly. She peeked at the crowded hall full of students and teachers, and her legs began to shake uncontrollably. Then she heard the host announce clearly, “Next up: Emma.”
She walked onto the stage, but as soon as she saw hundreds of eyes staring at her, her mind went completely blank — not a single word remained.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Paragraph 1: At that moment, she saw Mia, holding a small sign: “You’ve practiced this a hundred times. I believe in you.”

Paragraph 2: After the competition, Emma walked off the stage with tears in her eyes — but this time, they were tears of joy.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】例文
At that moment, she saw Mia, holding a small sign: “You’ve practiced this a hundred times. I believe in you.” Emma took a deep breath and closed her eyes for a second. When she opened them again, she stopped shaking. The words she had practiced so many times suddenly came back to her. She began to speak — slowly at first, then with more confidence. She talked about overcoming fear and the power of friendship. Her voice grew stronger with every sentence. When she finished, the hall erupted into applause. She didn’t win the golden trophy, but for the first time in her life, she was proud of herself for trying.
After the competition, Emma walked off the stage with tears in her eyes — but this time, they were tears of joy. Mia rushed over and hugged her tightly. “You did it! I knew you could!” Emma smiled and said, “I was so scared, but seeing your sign made me believe in myself.” From that day on, Emma was no longer afraid to speak up in class or join school activities. She realized that stepping out of her comfort zone wasn’t about being perfect — it was about being brave enough to try. And sometimes, a little encouragement from a friend could make all the difference.
