C 【解析】 【原文】 Good evening, everyone. I’m Jennifer Green. Thanks for joining us. In today’s edition, Our Perfect Life, our guest is Brock Bastian, a social psychologist from the University of Melbourne. Professor Bastian’s research focuses on pain, happiness and morality. Recently, he published a book on the role of pain in promoting pleasure. The title of the book is The Other Side of Happiness. In this book, he argues that as we seek to escape pain or sorrow, we’re weakening ourselves and may lose our adaptability to deal with pain in the future. Painful experiences are in fact vital for our development and how we face the unavoidable challenges ahead and they play a key role in helping us to develop our ability to feel truly happy. Now, let’s welcome Professor Bastian to talk about his ideas in the book. 第二部分 阅读(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、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A Reading shouldn’t be a one-way street. With this Smart Annotation (批注) Kit, you move from being a passive reader to an active thinker. This kit helps you: ● Capture your thoughts — write down questions, connections, and ideas as they come to you. ● Remember more — research shows that handwriting improves memory and comprehension. ● Read with purpose — use colors and notes to track themes, characters, or key arguments. ● Make books yours — turn every book you read into a personal record of your thinking journey. Whether you’re studying for an exam, preparing for a book club, or just reading for pleasure, this kit gives you the tools to engage deeply with every page. What’s Included ● 3 color-coded highlighters (yellow, pink, blue) ● 2 fine-tip pens (black, red) ● 50 repositionable sticky notes ● 1 quick-start guide How to Use Step 1: Read actively. As you read, underline key sentences or put question marks next to confusing parts. Step 2: Add your marks. Use different colors for different purposes. For example: yellow indicates main ideas; pink marks surprising or important facts; blue records personal reflections or unresolved questions. Step 3: Write short notes. Brief phrases such as “definition,” “contrast,” or “see page 23” are written next to relevant passages. Step 4: Review your notes. After each chapter, revisit annotations to strengthen long-term memory and identify patterns across the text. Limitations Permanent markers should not be used on borrowed or library copies. For those unwilling to write directly on pages, repositionable sticky notes offer an alternative. The kit contains small parts and must be kept away from children under three years of age. 21. What is the Smart Annotation Kit designed for? A. Fast reading skills. B. Library book care. C. Colourful expression. D. Active reading habits. 22. What should users do after marking puzzling parts? A. Review each chapter. B. Write short notes nearby. C. Skip to the next page. D. Change highlighter colors. 23. Who are most likely to use sticky notes? A. Book collectors. B. Library users. C. Literature explorers. D. Art learners. 【答案】21. D 22. B 23. B 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了一款智能阅读批注套装的产品。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“With this Smart Annotation Kit, you move from being a passive reader to an active thinker.(有了这套智能批注套装，你就能从被动阅读者转变为主动思考者。)”可知，这套智能批注套装的设计目的是为了养成主动阅读习惯。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据How to Use部分“Write short notes. Brief phrases such as “definition,” “contrast,” or “see page 23” are written next to relevant passages.(做好简短批注。在对应文段旁标注“释义”“对比”“参见23页”这类简短文字。)”可知，在疑难内容做好标记后，使用者下一步要在旁边写简短笔记。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Permanent markers should not be used on borrowed or library copies. For those unwilling to write directly on pages, repositionable sticky notes offer an alternative.(请勿用永久性记号笔在借阅图书或馆藏书籍上书写。如果不想直接在书页上做标记，可选用可反复粘贴的便利贴。)”可推知，图书馆借阅者最有可能使用便利贴。 B When I first picked up a fountain pen, I couldn’t understand why anyone would bother with such an outdated instrument. My grandfather’s eyes lit up like a child discovering a hidden treasure. To him, the act of writing wasn’t just about putting words on paper — it was a sacred practice. Writing was about carefully crafting thoughts and communicating them with precision(精准) and care. As a teenager in the digital age, I found the leaking ink and the scratchy nib(笔尖) more of an annoyance than anything else. But my view began to change when I cleaned out his roof space last summer. While sorting through boxes, I came across a wooden box filled with letters — not just letters he had received, but drafts of his own. One letter, written to the local mayor about the closure of a neighborhood park, wasn’t just a list of complaints. Instead, he had captured the scene of elderly men playing chess in the shade, the distant sound of children laughing, and the general peaceful atmosphere of the area. The writing was both elegant and firm, urging the mayor to consider the value of community spaces. It was then that I understood. My grandfather didn’t write simply to communicate information. His letters were a labor of love and respect, intended to give the reader the time and attention they deserved. He wasn’t writing for quick exchange, as I often did with my text messages, but for lasting impact. I began using that old fountain pen again. At first, my hand seized up, and I found it frustrating to write at the pace my thoughts raced. But gradually, the slow ink flow forced me to slow down and think deeply about every word. Writing became more than just a task — it became a way of truly reflecting on my thoughts, my emotions, and my words. 24. How did the author initially find using a fountain pen? A. Troublesome and messy. B. Exciting and creative. C. Fascinating but pointless. D. Confusing but acceptable. 25. Why did the author change his attitude toward the fountain pen? A. He found valuable birthday gifts. B. He discovered his grandfather’s letters. C. He realized the artistic beauty of writing. D. He experienced playing chess with elders. 26. What’s the significance of “slow ink flow” to the author in the last paragraph? A. A screen for reflection. B. A cure for loneliness. C. A source of inspiration. D. A symbol of tradition. 27. What’s the most suitable title for this article? A. The Art of Handwriting. B. The Letters of My Grandpa. C. The Wisdom of a Fountain Pen. D. The Slow Pace of Modern Life. 【答案】24. A 25. B 26. A 27. C 【解析】 【导语】文章主要讲述了作者最初对钢笔书写感到厌烦，但在整理祖父阁楼时发现了他写给市长的信件后，逐渐理解了钢笔书写的意义，并开始重新使用钢笔，体会到慢速书写带来的深度思考与反思。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“As a teenager in the digital age, I found the leaking ink and the scratchy nib(笔尖) more of an annoyance than anything else.(作为数字时代的一名青少年，我发现漏墨和刮纸的笔尖与其说是其他什么东西，不如说更是一种烦恼。)”可知，作者最初觉得使用钢笔麻烦且脏乱。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“But my view began to change when I cleaned out his roof space last summer. While sorting through boxes, I came across a wooden box filled with letters — not just letters he had received, but drafts of his own.(但去年夏天当我清理他的阁楼时，我的看法开始改变。在整理箱子时，我偶然发现一个装满信件的木盒——不只是他收到的信件，还有他自己写的草稿。)”可知，作者态度的转变是由于发现了祖父的信件。 【26题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But gradually, the slow ink flow forced me to slow down and think deeply about every word. Writing became more than just a task — it became a way of truly reflecting on my thoughts, my emotions, and my words.(但渐渐地，缓慢的墨水流速迫使我慢下来，深入思考每一个字。写作不再只是一项任务——它成为了一种真正反思我的思想、情感和我所写文字的方式。)”可知，“缓慢的墨水流速”让作者慢下来，深入思考每一个字，对作者而言是一个反思的契机。 【27题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段“When I first picked up a fountain pen, I couldn’t understand why anyone would bother with such an outdated instrument.(当我第一次拿起钢笔时，我无法理解为什么有人愿意费心使用这种过时的工具。)”和最后一段“Writing became more than just a task — it became a way of truly reflecting on my thoughts, my emotions, and my words.(写作不再只是一项任务——它成为了一种真正反思我的思想、情感和我所写文字的方式。)”可知，文章围绕钢笔展开，从作者最初对钢笔的厌烦，到发现祖父信件后理解钢笔书写的深刻意义，再到重新使用钢笔体会到慢速书写带来的反思与智慧，文章通过钢笔这一载体，表达了对慢速书写背后的智慧与反思，故C项“The Wisdom of a Fountain Pen.(钢笔的智慧)”能概括文章内容，是最佳标题。 C Imagine standing in front of a supermarket shelf with 40 types of jam. You might think more choices would make you happier, but research suggests otherwise. The “Paradox of Choice” is a fascinating concept that has interested sociologists for decades. On the surface, more options seem to offer more satisfaction. Living in an age with various choices should in theory make our lives better. However, research has shown that this huge variety can lead to “decision paralysis,” where we get stuck with so many options that we can hardly make up our minds. In fact, too many choices can reduce overall satisfaction with our decisions. Psychologist Barry Schwartz explains that people who are presented with too many options tend to become “maximizers” — individuals who keep trying to find the best choice. They compare every feature, price, and possibility, often fearing that they might miss out on a better option. This leads to a state of constant regret, even before the decision is made, as they worry about what they might have overlooked. In contrast, “satisfiers” look for something that meets their basic needs and are generally happier with their outcomes. They don’t need the best option; they just need one that works for them. While maximizers are trapped in endless comparison, satisfiers are content because they aren’t troubled by the fear of making the wrong choice. Social media has made this paradox even worse by acting as a “never-ending comparison machine.” We no longer just compare ourselves to our neighbors; we also compare our lives to edited, idealized versions of social influencers around the world. This constant exposure to better alternatives only increases the sense of discontent with our own decisions. To address this, some experts recommend voluntary limitation. By consciously limiting our choices, whether it’s through a minimalist wardrobe (衣柜) or a simplified diet, we can reduce unnecessary mental pressure that stops us from deciding easily. The goal is not to have less, but to free up space for what truly matters to us. By intentionally narrowing our options, we can make more room for meaningful experiences. 28. What is the author’s attitude to diverse choices? A. Critical. B. Enthusiastic. C. Dismissive. D. Defensive. 29. What is a typical behavior of a “satisfier”? A. Feeling satisfied with every choice. B. Making quick decisions naturally. C. Seeking the perfect option constantly. D. Caring much about online comparisons. 30. What role does social media play in the paradox of choice? A. It helps people find better deals online. B. It simplifies the decision-making process. C. It provides a realistic view of others’ lives. D. It fuels dissatisfaction with one’s own choices. 31. What does “voluntary limitation” imply in the last paragraph? A. A lack of digital resources. B. A loss of personal freedom. C. A strategic reduction of choices. D. A temporary break from technology. 【答案】28. A 29. B 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】该文介绍选择悖论：过多选择易让人纠结、遗憾。完美主义者不断对比，而知足者更快乐；社交媒体加剧此问题，主动精简选择能减轻精神负担。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“However, research has shown that this huge variety can lead to “decision paralysis,” where we get stuck with so many options that we can hardly make up our minds. In fact, too many choices can reduce overall satisfaction with our decisions.(然而，研究表明，这种巨大的选择多样性可能导致“决策瘫痪”，即我们面对太多选项而难以做出决定。事实上，过多的选择会降低我们对决策的整体满意度)”可知，作者指出过多的选择会导致“决策瘫痪”并降低人们的整体满意度。随后文章通篇都在分析过多选择带来的负面影响并提出应对建议。可知，作者对多样化选择（过多的选择）持批判态度。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“In contrast, “satisfiers” look for something that meets their basic needs and are generally happier with their outcomes. They don’t need the best option; they just need one that works for them. They are content with their choices because they aren’t paralyzed by the possibility of making the wrong one.(与之相反，满足型决策者只挑选能满足自身基本需求的事物，往往对最终选择更满意。他们不必追求最优选项，只求合适可用即可。他们对自己的选择心怀知足，不会因担心选错而犹豫不决。)”可知，知足型决策者的典型做法是不会陷入选择瘫痪，自然快速做决定。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Social media has made this paradox even worse by acting as a “never-ending comparison machine.” We no longer just compare ourselves to our neighbors; we also compare our lives to edited, idealized versions of social influencers around the world. This constant exposure to better alternatives only increases the sense of discontent with our own decisions.(社交媒体充当了一台 “永不停歇的比较机器”，让这一矛盾变得愈发严重。我们不再只是和身边邻居攀比；我们还会把自己的生活，拿来和全球网红们经过修饰、理想化的版本作对比。持续不断地看到这些更美好的参照样本，只会加剧我们对自身选择的不满。)”可知，社交媒体作为一个“永无止境的比较机器”，加剧了人们对自身选择的不满。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段中对该词的解释“By consciously limiting our choices, whether it’s through a minimalist wardrobe (衣柜) or a simplified diet, we can reduce unnecessary mental pressure that stops us from deciding easily. The goal is not to have less, but to free up space for what truly matters to us. By intentionally narrowing our options, we can make more room for meaningful experiences.(通过有意识地限制选择 —— 无论是精简衣橱，还是简化饮食，我们都能减轻阻碍我们轻松做决定的不必要的心理压力。这样做的目的不是拥有更少东西，而是为对我们真正重要的事物腾出空间。主动缩小选择范围，我们就能为有意义的经历留出更多余地)”可知，“自愿限制”指的是有策略、有意识地减少选择，从而减轻心理压力。 D For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ. According to this view, once the brain reached its full developmental potential in early adulthood, its neural connections were fixed. This opinion held that the brain, like a muscle that reaches its maximum size, could not adapt or change after a certain point. However, the discovery of neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has fundamentally altered our understanding of the brain. We now know that the brain is a dynamic, ever-changing organ that continues to reorganize itself in response to new experiences, learning and challenges. A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action. Taxi drivers in London must memorize a vast network of streets and landmarks in a test known as “The Knowledge.” Brain scans revealed that the posterior hippocampus — the area of the brain responsible for spatial memory — was significantly larger in these drivers than in the general population. More interestingly, the longer a driver had been on the job, the more pronounced the changes in this area of the brain, suggesting that the brain physically adapts to intense mental activity. However, neuroplasticity is a double-edged sword. While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits. For instance, constant multitasking and excessive consumption of short-form content, such as quick social media videos, can train the brain to have a shorter attention span, making it harder to engage in focused, deep work. The implications of this discovery are profound. We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions. This means we have more agency over our cognitive health than we ever realized. Lifelong learning, mental stimulation, and even unlearning unhealthy habits are not just cultural ideals, but they are biological necessities for maintaining a tough, sharp mind throughout life. 32. What is the previous view of the adult brain? A. It is capable of lifelong development. B. It is reshaped by learning and training. C. It is highly responsive to daily habits. D. It is largely unchanged after maturity. 33. How does the author support the idea of neuroplasticity? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By comparing methods. C. By presenting a case study. D. By describing an experiment. 34. What does the underlined word “rewired” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fixed. B. Simplified. C. Adjusted. D. Destroyed. 35. What does the author argue in the last paragraph? A. Daily habits greatly shape our minds. B. People can’t control cognitive health. C. Mental health depends fully on genes. D. Lifelong learning is far from a necessity. 【答案】32. D 33. C 34. C 35. A 【解析】 【导语】文章主要介绍了人们过去认为成年后大脑结构固定不变，但神经可塑性的发现推翻了该观点，借助伦敦出租车司机的研究佐证大脑可随经历发生生理改变，同时神经可塑性利弊并存，日常习惯会重塑大脑，终身学习等是保持大脑敏锐的生理需要。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ.(多年来，科学家们一直认为成年大脑是不会发生变化的器官。)”可知，以往观点认为大脑成熟后基本不会发生改变。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action.(一项针对伦敦出租车司机的里程碑式研究为现实中的神经可塑性提供了有力证据。)”可知，作者通过列举伦敦出租车司机的案例研究来佐证神经可塑性。 【34题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits.(大脑既可以被rewired以产生积极效果，也会被不良习惯所塑造。)”可知，rewired和后文shaped含义相近，意为“调整、重塑”。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段“We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions.(我们现在知道大脑不是固定不变的器官，而是可变的，持续受到我们日常习惯和行为的影响。)”可知，作者提出日常习惯在很大程度上塑造我们的大脑。 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。 Our planet is facing never-seen-before environmental challenges, from rising temperatures to plastic-choked oceans and disappearing forests. ____36____ However, the truth is that every individual action adds up to make a real difference. Environmental protection is not just a government or corporate duty, but a daily choice for all of us. Consider plastic waste, one of the most pressing problems today. Single-use plastics take hundreds of years to decompose, harming marine life and polluting soil. ____37____ Simple swaps, like using reusable water bottles, cloth bags, and metal straws, can dramatically cut down our plastic footprint. ____38____ In many countries, up to 40 percent of food ends up in landfills, releasing harmful methane (甲烷) gas as it rots. Planning meals, storing leftovers properly, and donating excess food are easy ways to fight this issue. Energy conservation is another critical area. Small daily decisions can have a long-term impact on the health of our planet. Switching to LED bulbs, turning off lights and appliances when they are not in use, and choosing public transport, cycling, or walking over driving all reduce carbon emissions. Even planting a small tree helps — trees absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving air quality and supporting biodiversity. Community action boosts individual efforts. ____39____ Joining local clean-up drives, supporting eco-friendly businesses, and educating friends and family about sustainable habits create a ripple effect. When we work together, our small steps turn into a powerful force for change. We only have one Earth. ____40____ By making conscious choices every day, we can ensure a healthy, livable planet for ourselves and future generations. The time to act is now — not tomorrow, not next week, but in this very moment. A. Protecting it is not an option but a necessity. B. Food waste is also a major contributor to environmental damage. C. It’s easy to feel powerless facing such huge environmental problems. D. We can also choose to buy products with less packaging to reduce waste. E. Working together in our community can multiply the positive effects of our actions. F. There are plenty of small changes we can make in our daily lives to reduce plastic use. G. Therefore, it is crucial for every individual to reflect on their daily consumption habits. 【答案】36. C 37. F 38. B 39. E 40. A 【解析】 【导语】文章介绍了一些日常可行的环保做法。 【36题详解】 根据下文“However, the truth is that every individual action adds up to make a real difference.(但事实是，每个人的点滴行动汇聚起来，就能带来切实的改变。)”可知， However表转折，空处和下文“个体有用”构成反义逻辑，C项“面对如此严峻的环境难题，人们很容易产生无能为力的感觉。”指出“觉得无力”正好和下文转折呼应。 【37题详解】 下文“Simple swaps, like using reusable water bottles, cloth bags, and metal straws, can dramatically cut down our plastic footprint.(小小替换，例如改用可重复使用的水杯、布袋与金属吸管，就能大幅减少个人产生的塑料废弃物。)”罗列具体日常减少塑料的方法，F项“我们可以在日常生活中做出很多小改变来减少塑料使用。”总起下文，引出各类减少塑料的小动作。 【38题详解】 空处为段落主题句。根据下文“In many countries, up to 40 percent of food ends up in landfills, releasing harmful methane (甲烷) gas as it rots.(在许多国家，多达四成的食物最终被送入垃圾填埋场，腐烂过程中会释放出有害的甲烷气体。)”可知，整段围绕食物浪费展开，B项“食物浪费也是破坏环境的一大元凶。” 引出本段主题词food waste，总领全段。 【39题详解】 根据上文“Community action boosts individual efforts.(社区行动能让个人环保努力事半功倍。)”和下文“Joining local clean-up drives, supporting eco-friendly businesses, and educating friends and family about sustainable habits create a ripple effect.(参与本地垃圾清理活动、扶持环保型商家，向亲友普及可持续生活理念，会产生连锁辐射效应。)”可知，本段中心词为 community，E项“在社区协同行动可以放大我们行动的积极效果。”承接上文“社区促进个人努力”，点明社区协作能放大成效，衔接下文具体社区活动。 【40题详解】 根据上文“We only have one Earth. (我们只有一个地球。)”和下文“By making conscious choices every day, we can ensure a healthy, livable planet for ourselves and future generations.(通过每天做出理性自觉的选择，我们就能为自身以及子孙后代守护一个健康、宜居的地球。)”可知，上文提出仅有一个地球，下文指出要坚持日常环保、守护地球。A项“保护地球不是一种选择，而是一件必需要做的事。”符合语境。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Mrs Li, a Chinese, runs a teahouse in a small town in England.

Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) perched (栖息) on their window. The father asked his son, “what is this?” The son replied, “It is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you, it is a crow!” After a little while, the old father again asked his son for the third time, “What is this?” At this time some expression of irritation (恼怒) was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father with a rebuff (生硬回绝). “It’s a crow, a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?” This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?’ A little while later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered (发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary: “Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question.

He held his father’s old hands tightly, tears rolling down his face, and apologized sincerely for his rudeness. “Dad, I’m sorry. I was so selfish and impatient,” he said. The father smiled gently, stroked his son’s head and helped him up, saying he never blamed him. The two hugged tightly, and the warmth of family filled the room. 【解析】 【导语】本文以“父子与乌鸦”为线索展开，讲述了一位80岁的父亲反复问已成年且受过高等教育的儿子“那是什么”，儿子一次次表现出恼怒与回绝；父亲取来儿子出生起便记的旧日记，上面写着：儿子三岁时常把乌鸦问23次，父亲每次都温柔拥抱、毫无厌烦。日记让儿子看到自己对待年迈父亲的态度与当年父亲对自己的耐心形成强烈反差，从而引出愧疚、反省与和解。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句可知，第一段可描写儿子读后内心受到震动，回忆自己刚才的吼叫与父亲当年的包容，陷入自责与羞愧，情绪由烦躁转为悔恨。 ② 由第二段首句可知，第二段可描写儿子跪在父亲面前认错、拥抱、父亲宽恕，最后两人和好，房间充满温情与理解。 2. 续写线索：读日记——震惊羞愧——回想幼年父爱——下跪认错——拥抱和解——感悟孝与爱 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 抚摸头：stroke one’s head/pat one’s head ② 拥抱：hug/embrace/hold sb. in one’s arms 情绪类 ① 震惊的：shocked/amazed/astonished ② 眼泪顺着脸颊流下来：tears rolling down one’s face/tears streaming down one’s face 【点睛】【高分句型1】He was shocked and deeply ashamed, realizing how impatient he had been with his father.

With this Smart Annotation (批注) Kit, you move from being a passive reader to an active thinker. This kit helps you: ● Capture your thoughts — write down questions, connections, and ideas as they come to you. ● Remember more — research shows that handwriting improves memory and comprehension. ● Read with purpose — use colors and notes to track themes, characters, or key arguments. ● Make books yours — turn every book you read into a personal record of your thinking journey. Whether you’re studying for an exam, preparing for a book club, or just reading for pleasure, this kit gives you the tools to engage deeply with every page. What’s Included ● 3 color-coded highlighters (yellow, pink, blue) ● 2 fine-tip pens (black, red) ● 50 repositionable sticky notes ● 1 quick-start guide How to Use Step 1: Read actively. As you read, underline key sentences or put question marks next to confusing parts. Step 2: Add your marks. Use different colors for different purposes. For example: yellow indicates main ideas; pink marks surprising or important facts; blue records personal reflections or unresolved questions. Step 3: Write short notes. Brief phrases such as “definition,” “contrast,” or “see page 23” are written next to relevant passages. Step 4: Review your notes. After each chapter, revisit annotations to strengthen long-term memory and identify patterns across the text. Limitations Permanent markers should not be used on borrowed or library copies. For those unwilling to write directly on pages, repositionable sticky notes offer an alternative. The kit contains small parts and must be kept away from children under three years of age. 21.

Literature explorers. D. Art learners. B When I first picked up a fountain pen, I couldn’t understand why anyone would bother with such an outdated instrument. My grandfather’s eyes lit up like a child discovering a hidden treasure. To him, the act of writing wasn’t just about putting words on paper — it was a sacred practice. Writing was about carefully crafting thoughts and communicating them with precision(精准) and care. As a teenager in the digital age, I found the leaking ink and the scratchy nib(笔尖) more of an annoyance than anything else. But my view began to change when I cleaned out his roof space last summer. While sorting through boxes, I came across a wooden box filled with letters — not just letters he had received, but drafts of his own. One letter, written to the local mayor about the closure of a neighborhood park, wasn’t just a list of complaints. Instead, he had captured the scene of elderly men playing chess in the shade, the distant sound of children laughing, and the general peaceful atmosphere of the area. The writing was both elegant and firm, urging the mayor to consider the value of community spaces. It was then that I understood. My grandfather didn’t write simply to communicate information. His letters were a labor of love and respect, intended to give the reader the time and attention they deserved. He wasn’t writing for quick exchange, as I often did with my text messages, but for lasting impact. I began using that old fountain pen again. At first, my hand seized up, and I found it frustrating to write at the pace my thoughts raced. But gradually, the slow ink flow forced me to slow down and think deeply about every word. Writing became more than just a task — it became a way of truly reflecting on my thoughts, my emotions, and my words. 24. How did the author initially find using a fountain pen? A. Troublesome and messy. B. Exciting and creative. C. Fascinating but pointless. D. Confusing but acceptable. 25. Why did the author change his attitude toward the fountain pen? A. He found valuable birthday gifts. B. He discovered his grandfather’s letters. C. He realized the artistic beauty of writing. D. He experienced playing chess with elders. 26. What’s the significance of “slow ink flow” to the author in the last paragraph? A. A screen for reflection. B. A cure for loneliness. C. A source of inspiration. D. A symbol of tradition. 27. What’s the most suitable title for this article? A. The Art of Handwriting. B. The Letters of My Grandpa. C. The Wisdom of a Fountain Pen. D. The Slow Pace of Modern Life. C Imagine standing in front of a supermarket shelf with 40 types of jam. You might think more choices would make you happier, but research suggests otherwise. The “Paradox of Choice” is a fascinating concept that has interested sociologists for decades. On the surface, more options seem to offer more satisfaction. Living in an age with various choices should in theory make our lives better. However, research has shown that this huge variety can lead to “decision paralysis,” where we get stuck with so many options that we can hardly make up our minds. In fact, too many choices can reduce overall satisfaction with our decisions. Psychologist Barry Schwartz explains that people who are presented with too many options tend to become “maximizers” — individuals who keep trying to find the best choice. They compare every feature, price, and possibility, often fearing that they might miss out on a better option. This leads to a state of constant regret, even before the decision is made, as they worry about what they might have overlooked. In contrast, “satisfiers” look for something that meets their basic needs and are generally happier with their outcomes. They don’t need the best option; they just need one that works for them. While maximizers are trapped in endless comparison, satisfiers are content because they aren’t troubled by the fear of making the wrong choice. Social media has made this paradox even worse by acting as a “never-ending comparison machine.” We no longer just compare ourselves to our neighbors; we also compare our lives to edited, idealized versions of social influencers around the world. This constant exposure to better alternatives only increases the sense of discontent with our own decisions. To address this, some experts recommend voluntary limitation. By consciously limiting our choices, whether it’s through a minimalist wardrobe (衣柜) or a simplified diet, we can reduce unnecessary mental pressure that stops us from deciding easily. The goal is not to have less, but to free up space for what truly matters to us. By intentionally narrowing our options, we can make more room for meaningful experiences. 28. What is the author’s attitude to diverse choices? A. Critical. B. Enthusiastic. C. Dismissive. D. Defensive. 29. What is a typical behavior of a “satisfier”? A. Feeling satisfied with every choice. B. Making quick decisions naturally. C. Seeking the perfect option constantly. D. Caring much about online comparisons. 30. What role does social media play in the paradox of choice? A. It helps people find better deals online. B. It simplifies the decision-making process. C. It provides a realistic view of others’ lives. D. It fuels dissatisfaction with one’s own choices. 31. What does “voluntary limitation” imply in the last paragraph? A. A lack of digital resources. B. A loss of personal freedom. C. A strategic reduction of choices. D. A temporary break from technology. D For many years, scientists believed that the adult brain was an unchanging organ. According to this view, once the brain reached its full developmental potential in early adulthood, its neural connections were fixed. This opinion held that the brain, like a muscle that reaches its maximum size, could not adapt or change after a certain point. However, the discovery of neuroplasticity (神经可塑性) has fundamentally altered our understanding of the brain. We now know that the brain is a dynamic, ever-changing organ that continues to reorganize itself in response to new experiences, learning and challenges. A landmark study of London taxi drivers provides strong evidence of neuroplasticity in action. Taxi drivers in London must memorize a vast network of streets and landmarks in a test known as “The Knowledge.” Brain scans revealed that the posterior hippocampus — the area of the brain responsible for spatial memory — was significantly larger in these drivers than in the general population. More interestingly, the longer a driver had been on the job, the more pronounced the changes in this area of the brain, suggesting that the brain physically adapts to intense mental activity. However, neuroplasticity is a double-edged sword. While the brain can be rewired for positive outcomes, it can also be shaped by negative habits. For instance, constant multitasking and excessive consumption of short-form content, such as quick social media videos, can train the brain to have a shorter attention span, making it harder to engage in focused, deep work. The implications of this discovery are profound. We now know that the brain is not a fixed organ but a changeable one, constantly being influenced by our daily habits and actions. This means we have more agency over our cognitive health than we ever realized. Lifelong learning, mental stimulation, and even unlearning unhealthy habits are not just cultural ideals, but they are biological necessities for maintaining a tough, sharp mind throughout life. 32. What is the previous view of the adult brain? A. It is capable of lifelong development. B. It is reshaped by learning and training. C. It is highly responsive to daily habits. D. It is largely unchanged after maturity. 33. How does the author support the idea of neuroplasticity? A. By analyzing reasons. B. By comparing methods. C. By presenting a case study. D. By describing an experiment. 34. What does the underlined word “rewired” in paragraph 3 probably mean? A. Fixed. B. Simplified. C. Adjusted. D. Destroyed. 35. What does the author argue in the last paragraph? A. Daily habits greatly shape our minds. B. People can’t control cognitive health. C. Mental health depends fully on genes. D. Lifelong learning is far from a necessity. 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。 Our planet is facing never-seen-before environmental challenges, from rising temperatures to plastic-choked oceans and disappearing forests. ____36____ However, the truth is that every individual action adds up to make a real difference. Environmental protection is not just a government or corporate duty, but a daily choice for all of us. Consider plastic waste, one of the most pressing problems today. Single-use plastics take hundreds of years to decompose, harming marine life and polluting soil. ____37____ Simple swaps, like using reusable water bottles, cloth bags, and metal straws, can dramatically cut down our plastic footprint. ____38____ In many countries, up to 40 percent of food ends up in landfills, releasing harmful methane (甲烷) gas as it rots. Planning meals, storing leftovers properly, and donating excess food are easy ways to fight this issue. Energy conservation is another critical area. Small daily decisions can have a long-term impact on the health of our planet. Switching to LED bulbs, turning off lights and appliances when they are not in use, and choosing public transport, cycling, or walking over driving all reduce carbon emissions. Even planting a small tree helps — trees absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen, improving air quality and supporting biodiversity. Community action boosts individual efforts. ____39____ Joining local clean-up drives, supporting eco-friendly businesses, and educating friends and family about sustainable habits create a ripple effect. When we work together, our small steps turn into a powerful force for change. We only have one Earth. ____40____ By making conscious choices every day, we can ensure a healthy, livable planet for ourselves and future generations. The time to act is now — not tomorrow, not next week, but in this very moment. A. Protecting it is not an option but a necessity. B. Food waste is also a major contributor to environmental damage. C. It’s easy to feel powerless facing such huge environmental problems. D. We can also choose to buy products with less packaging to reduce waste. E. Working together in our community can multiply the positive effects of our actions. F. There are plenty of small changes we can make in our daily lives to reduce plastic use. G. Therefore, it is crucial for every individual to reflect on their daily consumption habits. 第三部分 语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题;每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 Mrs Li, a Chinese, runs a teahouse in a small town in England.

Suddenly a crow (乌鸦) perched (栖息) on their window. The father asked his son, “what is this?” The son replied, “It is a crow.” After a few minutes, the father asked his son for the second time, “What is this?” The son said, “Father, I have just now told you, it is a crow!” After a little while, the old father again asked his son for the third time, “What is this?” At this time some expression of irritation (恼怒) was felt in the son’s tone when he said to his father with a rebuff (生硬回绝). “It’s a crow, a crow.” A little while later, the father again asked his son the fourth time, “What is this?” This time, the son shouted at his father, “Why do you keep asking me the same question again and again, although I have told you so many times ‘IT IS A CROW’. Are you not able to understand this?’ A little while later the father went to his room and came back with an old tattered (发皱的) diary, which he had maintained since his son was born. On opening a page, he asked his son to read that page. When the son read it, the following words were written in the diary: “Today my little son aged three was sitting with me on the sofa, when a crow was sitting on the window. My son asked me 23 times what it was, and I replied to him all 23 times that it was a crow. I hugged him lovingly each time he asked me the same question. I did not at all feel annoyed but I rather felt love for my innocent son. 注意： 1. 所续写短文的词数应为150词左右； 2. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。 After reading the diary, the son’s eyes filled with tears. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Feeling ashamed, the son got down on his knees before his father. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
