C 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述作者开会迟到，在路上向朋友抱怨烦心事，朋友提出一个引人深思的问题，引发作者思考，这件事缓解了作者的压力，让生活变得更好 【16题详解】 句意：然而，我没有给出那个预料之中的回复：“挺好的，你呢？” 空格修饰名词reply，需要形容词。根据前文朋友问“How are you doing?”，这是日常打招呼，通常大家都会给出固定的、意料之中的回答，应用expected“预料的，预期的”。surprising“令人惊讶的”、common“普通的”、unique“独特的”，均不符合语境。 【17题详解】 句意：我决定发泄对交通、在红绿灯处不肯放下手机的人、雨天视线差以及上班路上其他所有烦心事的不满。 根据“at traffic lights”和cellphones的语境，指等红绿灯时不放下手机的人，应用put down“放下”。turn on“打开”、pick out“挑选”、take up“占据，开始从事”，均不能表达放下手机的含义。 【18题详解】 句意：我决定发泄对交通、在红绿灯处不肯放下手机的人、雨天视线差以及上班路上其他所有令人有压力的烦心事的不满。 空格修饰名词journey，需用形容词。根据前文作者开会迟到，满心抱怨，这段上班旅程充满压力，应用stressful“有压力的”。joyful“开心的”、thoughtful“深思的”、careful“小心的”，均不符合抱怨的语境。 【19题详解】 句意：我的朋友没有表示同情，而是问了一个具有挑战性的问题。 空格修饰名词question，需用形容词。根据后文这个问题引人深思、不好回答，应用challenging“有挑战性的”。simple“简单的”、strange“奇怪的”、familiar“熟悉的”，均不符合语境。 【20题详解】 句意：如果你的守护天使没有制造出那些交通问题，会发生什么？ 根据后文“The inference was that I might have been spared something much worse than being late for a meeting.”，言外之意是现在遇到的堵车问题，其实是守护天使创造出来，以此帮作者避开更糟糕的事，应用created“创造”。avoided“避开”、solved“解决”、mastered“掌握”，均和语境不符。 【21题详解】  句意：言外之意是，我本可以避开某些比开会迟到糟糕得多的事。 根据本句“ I might have been spared something much worse than being late for a meeting”，be spared sth.意为“避开某事、免遭某事”，something much worse 表示“某些更糟的事”，应用something“某事”。anything常用于否定疑问句，nothing“没有什么”，everything“一切”，均不符合。 【22题详解】 句意：我第一反应是笑了笑继续往前走，但后来我开始仔细思考他问的问题。 根据后文“the more I thought about this question”可知此处指认真思考这个问题，应用think over“仔细思考”。care about“关心”、make up“编造”、check out“结账；核实”，均不能表达思考问题的含义。 【23题详解】 句意：在接下来的几天里，我越思考这个问题，就越能从中看到智慧。 空格在more后面，需用名词。根据前文这个问题引发作者反思，让作者从中体会到智慧，应用wisdom“智慧”。chances“机会”、worries“担忧”、skills“技能”，均不符合语境。 【24题详解】 句意：我想到了我的家庭经历以及发生在我身上的事，他埋下的那颗种子开始生长。 根据后面“had planted started to grow”，应用seed“种子”，plant the seed是固定比喻搭配，表示“播下种子”。secret“秘密”、fruit“果实”、treasure“宝藏”，均不能和plant、grow搭配。 【25题详解】 句意：自从我的朋友以提问的方式给我建议后，我变得压力更小了。 空格在a后面，需用名词。根据前文朋友是通过提出问题的方式开导作者，应用question“问题”。dialogue“对话”、story“故事”、fact“事实”，均不符合语境。 四、阅读理解（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 请认真阅读下列材料，从短文后备题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项， A The Arts Co-op Program allows undergraduates to gain challenging, paid work experience while completing their degrees at UBC (University of British Columbia). How Co-op Works Co-op is a structured program for students to gain professional experience by alternating (交替) between work and study terms. Students who complete the required 3 work terms will graduate with a co-op recognition on their transcript (成绩单). Length & Number of Work Terms Students in co-op complete 3 work terms throughout their degrees, with each work term being 4 months long. As a result, students typically complete their degrees in 4.5-5 years. While it may take you longer to complete your degree, you will graduate with 12 months of paid work experience to kick start your career! Typical Work / Study Schedule Use the following as a guide to determine a schedule based on your courses and other UBC plans: YEAR FALL (SEP-DEC) WINTER (JAN-APR) SUMMER (MAY-AUG) 1st Study Study Break 2nd ● Study & Apply to Co-op ● Pre-employment training ● Study ● Pre-employment training Co-op Term 1 3rd Co-op Term 2 Study Co-op Term 3 4th Study Co-op Term 4(Optional) Study 5th Study Study Required Pre-Employment Training If you are admitted to the program, you will be required to participate in specialized training for co-op students. In this training, you will learn how to put together a compelling job application and increase your chances of success in co-op and beyond. These pre-employment training sessions are required, so you’ll need to adjust your schedules accordingly in order to attend. Co-op Wage Structure Here is an approximate breakdown by hourly wage: Non-profit organizations: $ 17.85 — $ 19.00 Private business: $ 17.85 — $ 24.00 Government: $ 19.00 — $ 24.00 26.

Did you see the Rosetta Stone from Egypt and those sculptures from India? They look so real! Wang Wei: Yeah, but…I can’t stop thinking about the Chinese things here. Like that jade cabbage from the Palace Museum. It’s beautiful, but it feels wrong to see it so far from home. Li Ming: I know what you mean. When I saw the Buddhist wall paintings which were taken away from Dunhuang during wars, I felt proud of our culture, but also…angry. Wang Wei: Exactly! Those bronze pieces from the Qing Dynasty are important relics. They belong in Chinese museums, not behind foreign glass. It’s like part of our history is locked away. Li Ming: (sighs) What can we do about it? We’re just students. Wang Wei: We’re not “just” students! My uncles work as conservators in a museum. They say more countries are giving back artifacts now. Maybe we can study history or international laws to help! Li Ming: Or use modern contrivances! Like 3D scanning to share our culture without moving the real things. I want to learn coding for that. Wang Wei: Great idea! For now, let’s take more photographs. After we get back from London, we can give a presentation (展示) to show our class how amazing our art is…even here! 29. Where does this dialog probably take place? A. In the Indian Museum. B. In the British Museum. C. In Dunhuang Museum. D. In the Palace Museum. 30. Which of the following is NOT from China? A. The Rosetta Stone. B. The jade cabbage. C. The bronze pieces. D. The Buddhist wall paintings. 31. Which word in the dialog has the closest meaning to the underlined word “artifacts”? A. Relics. B. Contrivances. C. Conservators. D. Photographs. 32. What is the best title for their presentation? A. Hard Trip Abroad: From Anger to Danger B. Chinese Treasures Abroad: Our Pride and Pain C. World Art Collection: From India to China D. Chinese Art Protections: With 3D and Coding 【答案】29. B 30. A 31. A 32. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过一段对话，讲述两名学生在海外博物馆看到流失的中国文物后，心生感慨并立志用所学知识保护中国文化文物的故事。 【29题详解】 对话末尾王伟提到“After we get back from London”，说明二人此刻身处伦敦，结合展出多国文物的语境，可判断地点为大英博物馆。 【30题详解】 对话首句李明提到“the Rosetta Stone from Egypt”，说明罗塞塔石碑来自埃及，并非中国文物；玉白菜、清代青铜器、敦煌壁画均为中国文物。 【31题详解】 对话前文提到“Those bronze pieces from the Qing Dynasty are important relics.”，通篇讲述流失海外的文物，artifacts表示“文物”，与relics词义相近。 【32题详解】 全文围绕流落海外的中国珍宝展开，既有对中华文化的自豪，也有文物流失的遗憾与痛心，“Chinese Treasures Abroad: Our Pride and Pain”最贴合文章主旨。 C Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways—threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health. Now, new research points to a possibly lifelong setback (障碍) for children who are suffering from extreme heat. In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives. Meeting these basic developmental milestones (里程碑) at the early time—including recognizing letters (字母) or words and playing independently—can influence later life achievements, from mental health to economic success. “Delays in developing these skills set kids down a developmental path that can affect not just personal well-being, but society as a whole,” says Cuarta, a researcher at New York University. To see if there are connections between extreme heat and the development of these skills, Cuarta and his team studied data from 19,600 children surveyed by UNICEF in six countries. The team used the Early Childhood Development Index, which follows milestones in four areas: reading and number-related skills (cognitive skills), social-emotional development (social skills), ways of learning (learning skills) and physical development (physical skills). The Index tested children’s ability to name letters, read simple words and recognize the numbers 1 through 10, among other skills. In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. Learning loss may happen because heat’s effects on the brain can produce slower reaction times and an inability to focus. Heat can mess with (扰乱) children’s sleep, leading to cognitive disorder and learning difficulties in early childhood. With temperature rising globally, these delays could continue through school years and beyond, widening gaps in education and opportunity. “There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects them will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.” 33. How does the author present the pressure caused by climate change? A. By quoting an expert. B. By raising a suggestion. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 34. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The influence of painful childhood. B. The importance of early development. C. The science behind the heat’s damage. D. The explanation of cognitive skills. 35. What can be inferred from Cuarta’s study? A. Heat stress can promote kids’ sleep quality. B. Heat’s effects were greater on mental health. C. Temperature can determine kids’ personality. D. Extreme heat may harm reading and number-related skills. 36. What is Cuarta’s suggestion about? A. The addition of control groups. B. The inclusion of more volunteers. C. Possible direction of future studies. D. Wide promotion of the findings. 【答案】33. C 34. B 35. D 36. C 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了气候变化带来的极端高温会对儿童的早期发展造成终身的不良影响，呼吁进一步探明高温影响儿童发展的具体机制，以此制定适配的应对策略。 【33题详解】 第一段“Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves,… threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health.”，作者列举了气候变化带来的压力具体表现为威胁生态系统、降低粮食产量、损害公共健康三个实例，以此呈现气候变化的影响，符合举例子的说明方式。 【34题详解】 第二段“children develop key physical, cognitive and social skills that can shape the rest of their lives....”，主要阐述儿童早年形成的身体、认知、社交等关键技能会塑造其一生，按时达成早期发展里程碑会影响后续人生的诸多成就，核心是说明早期发展的重要性。 【35题详解】 第三段“children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills.”，介绍经历30℃以上高温的儿童比生活在凉爽环境中的儿童更难达成基础发展里程碑，在阅读和数字相关技能方面表现尤为突出，可推断出极端高温可能损害儿童的阅读和数字相关技能。 【36题详解】 最后一段“…Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects them will allow us to develop adaptation strategies to help them in the future.”，Cuarta提出亟需探明高温影响儿童发展的具体路径，明确受影响群体和影响机制后开发适配的应对策略，这属于未来研究的可行方向。 D Hilary Smith belonged to a good family. But by the age of twenty, he had spent all the money the good old family had. He then had some trouble with the bank and was put in prison. He escaped from the prison and ran to Australia at once. Hilary did not like Australia, and Australia did not like Hilary. What he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work. Then he remembered that he was not alone in the world. He had an aunt. She was his father’s only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory (荣耀) to the family. Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done. It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman. Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with “trade”. Of course, as soon as she became “Mrs. Parks”, her brother considered her dead. Later on, Mr. Parks died and left her a lot of money. But that did not bring her back to life in her brother’s opinion. Hilary discovered his aunt’s address. Luckily she remained faithful and loyal to him even after she fell ill. So Hilary’s star shone again, and soon he moved into her house and lived as comfortably as a sailor who had just reached harbor. He had only about a six-pence in his pocket. One thing was soon clear: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness. Hilary was very worried. Fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it. There was only one thing that could save him: her will (遗嘱). “Will? ”she said, “yes, I have made one. That was when I was a girl and had not much money. I left all my money to some religious people. ” “Didn’t you make another will when you were married? ”Hilary asked. His aunt shook her head. “No, ” she said in a low voice. “There was no need. When I finally had a lot of money I found I had no relations. ” On the next day he went to the public library and examined a book of law. It told him what he already believed. When a woman is married, an earlier will loses its value. A new will must be made. If no new will is made, the money goes to the nearest relation. Hilary knew that he was his aunt’s only relation. His future was bright. After a few months had passed, Hilary’s problems became serious. He badly needed money. He had expensive tastes, and owed a lot of money to shopkeepers. They believed in him because his aunt was rich, but the debt was terrible. Unluckily his aunt did not want to discuss money matters at all. In the end they had a quarrel about the small amount of ten pounds. Hilary was not very angry. He began to wonder about a new problem. Was it kind to want his aunt to live any longer? Was it not better for her to die now? While he was considering what to do, his aunt told him that she was going to send for her lawyer. So she was going to make a new will, Hilary thought. She might leave all her money to someone else. Soon he reached a clear decision. He must do a great kindness to the poor old woman. One night when the old servant who had been nursing his aunt went off, he doubled the amount of some medicine. The total amount was too great and it could just put her to sleep forever. “Thank you, ”his aunt took the glass from his hand with a grateful look. “I want, more than anything, to sleep, and never to wake up again. Is that what you wish, Hilary? Don’t blame (责怪) me if I have some doubts about what you intended to do. Sick people get these ideas, you know. One thing I ought to explain to you. Mr. Parks never married me. He already had a wife and couldn’t marry again. That made your foolish father very angry with me…Well, if I am alive tomorrow I shall make another will in your favor (赞成). If I die tonight, you’ll get nothing…. No, Hilary, don’t try to take the glass away. If you do that, I shall know, and I don’t want to know. Goodnight, Hilary. ” Then, very carefully, she raised the glass to her mouth and drank. 37. From the story, we learn that Hilary’s aunt was ________. A. careless about money B. rude to her nephew C. not easy to get along with D. kind-hearted and wise 38. Why did Hilary’s father consider his aunt dead? A. Because he thought she was a shame to the family. B. Because she broke away from the family for a better life. C. Because they lost touch with each other after her marriage. D. Because she married a businessman with a wife against his will. 39. The underlined sentence suggests that Hilary Smith ________. A. decided to call in a lawyer for his aunt B. made a decision to put his aunt's life to an end C. made up his mind to take good care of his aunt D. would help his aunt to donate money to religious people 40. Which detail from the story is the climax (高潮) of the story? A. Hilary succeeded in escaping from the prison. B. Hilary quarreled with his aunt about ten pounds. C. Hilary’s aunt drank the medicine her nephew prepared for her. D. Hilary’s aunt made a will to leave all her money to someone else. 【答案】37. D 38. A 39. B 40. C 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇记叙文，讲述了一个名叫Hilary Smith的男人在越狱之后投奔了他的姑姑，想要杀死姑姑夺取遗产的故事。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Luckily she remained faithful and loyal to him even after she fell ill. ”可知，姑姑很善良，收留了Hilary；根据最后一段“Well, if I am alive tomorrow I shall make another will in your favor. If I die tonight, you’ll get nothing.”可知，姑姑是非常明智的，D选项“好心且明智”符合题意，故选D。 【38题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“She was his father’s only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory ( 荣耀 )to the family. Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done. It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman. Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with “trade”. Of course, as soon as she became “Mrs. Parks”, her brother considered her dead. . ”可知，姑姑没有给家族增光，没能跟贵族结婚，而是跟一个与 “贸易” 相关的人结婚，从那之后她的哥哥就当做她已经死了。A选项“因为他认为姑姑是家族的耻辱” 符合文意，故选A。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“One night when the old servant who had been nursing his aunt went off, he doubled the amount of some medicine. The total amount was too great and it could just put her to sleep forever.”可知，Hilary是想杀死他的姑姑，B选项“下决心终结姑姑的性命”符合文意，故选B。 【40题详解】 细节理解题。文章最后三段讲述了Hilary为了得到姑姑的财产决心杀死姑姑，姑姑接过水说的话反转了整个故事，Hilary聪明反被聪明误，C选项“希拉里的姑姑喝了她侄子为她准备的药”正是文章的高潮之处，故选C。 第II卷 非选择题（共60分） 五、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分20分） （A） 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答卷纸的相应位置上。 Chinese mortise and tenon (榫卯) is a wonderful traditional skill.

You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal (描绘) of these animals—an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. ____56____ While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”. ____57____Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they usually can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. ____58____ There will probably be background noises such as crew members chatting or walking around if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency (频率) or volume (音量) that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly. “Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals. And most of them will create the close—up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths.

Why do we go to school? Some believe that we go to gain knowledge, while others think that socializing (社交) is a necessary part of school life. We go to school mainly to get qualification (学历) and learn facts, as the role of school is to develop us into adults and prepare us for working life, so its purpose becomes clear: gaining knowledge. Certificates (证书) of education level are required for further study and jobs. Learning subjects well helps us pass entrance exams, which provides choices for our paths to the future. It is also necessary for us to learn facts and develop an understanding of the world. For example, the knowledge of Physics and Chemistry can explain certain things in daily lives, which can help solve some problems. In Geography and History classes, we can learn about the way our environments are shaped over time. These allow teenagers to connect with the world and understand time and space that are beyond their reach. However, some people believe socializing like working in groups and making friends is more important. They can help improve interpersonal skills and cultural understanding, and are good for our mental health. These are the keys to our growth and prepare us for the future. At school, group work needs us to communicate and socialize with others. In this way, we can increase our ability to express ideas clearly, which makes it easy for others to understand us. Such skills cannot be developed from textbooks and are of great use in workplaces. It is also important for us to make friends at school. Research has shown that close friendships can help reduce stress, especially during teenage years. Making friends at school does not mean that we can’t learn facts well. Instead, the friendships can encourage us to study, so school should actively support students to develop healthy friendships. I think school is the place where students should gain knowledge and develop socializing skills as well. Topic * Why do we go to school? People don’t have the same view on this topic. Anyway, going to school is an important ____61____ of time in everyone’s life. Two ____62____ views Gaining knowledge * Getting qualification ·Further study and jobs ____63____ certificates. ·Entrance exams ____64____ students whether they learn the subjects well. ·Students future paths somewhat depend on entrance exams. * Learning facts ·We can solve daily problems ____65____ Physics and Chemistry knowledge. ·We can understand ____66____ the environments are shaped by learning Geography and History.

Nowadays, AI-powered forecasting models are being developed to make weather predictions faster and more accurate (精准的). AI can collect and process more kinds of information than before. In the past, forecasts mainly depended on temperature, wind, and air pressure. Now, AI models can provide information, including city maps, population data, and even electricity usage records. For example, the Hong Kong Observatory uses computer vision, an AI method, to study radar pictures of rain. This helps scientists know the speed and direction of rain clouds. However, some weather events are still hard to forecast. Traditional models work well for large systems, such as areas of high or low pressure. But small, local events, like sudden rainstorms or tornadoes, are harder to predict. Reducing the grid (网格) size of a weather model helps. But the large amount of processing makes it impossible to use traditional methods. Rain predictions near the equator are often less accurate than in other places. One reason is that the difference in tropical rainfall systems affects the predictions. Another reason is that observation systems are not equally good worldwide. At present, there are many ways to improve forecasts. With AI, weather forecasting is becoming faster, cheaper, and more accurate. For example, Nvidia’s CorrDiff model uses AI to produce more detailed forecasts quickly with less energy. Even the Hong Kong Observatory can make rain forecasts only a few hours ahead. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 AI helps weather forecasting greatly. It can deal with more kinds of data and get more detailed information than old models. Still, some small local weather events and forecasts near the equator are difficult to predict for several reasons. New AI models are being improved. AI makes weather forecasts faster, cheaper and more accurate. 【解析】 【详解】写作步骤 [第一步：审题立意] 确定文体：说明文，以一般现在时为主 明确要点：AI对天气预报的帮助、AI仍难以预测的天气事件、AI模型的改进与前景 确定人称：第三人称（it/AI/weather forecasting） 注意事项：50词左右；中心突出，语言简洁连贯 [第二步：构思布局] 三段式结构： 第一段：AI对天气预报的巨大帮助（处理更多数据、更详细的信息） 第二段：仍然存在的困难（局部小天气事件、赤道附近预报难） 第三段：AI模型的改进与前景（更快、更便宜、更准确） [第三步：要点展开] 要点一：AI对天气预报的帮助 帮助：AI helps weather forecasting greatly./AI improves weather forecasting a lot./AI is very helpful for weather forecasting.等 具体能力：It can deal with more kinds of data./It can process more information than old models./It gets more detailed information than traditional models.等 要点二：仍然存在的困难 引出困难：Still, some small local weather events are difficult to predict./However, some local events remain hard to forecast./But some weather events are still hard to predict.等 具体困难：Forecasts near the equator are difficult to predict./Small local events like sudden rainstorms are hard to predict./There are several reasons for these difficulties.等 要点三：AI模型的改进与前景 点明发展：New AI models are being improved./AI models are getting better./New AI models are under development.等 前景：AI makes weather forecasts faster, cheaper and more accurate./AI helps forecasts become faster and more accurate./AI will make weather prediction better and better.等 八、书面表达（满分15分） 82. 假定你是李华，你校英语俱乐部正在举办主题为“China In My Eyes”的作品征集活动。请你结合以下提示，用英语写一份倡议书，号召同学们积极参加。词数100左右。 ★ Purpose and significance (意义): ● better understand Chinese culture ● improve English ● … ★ Requirements (要求) for works: ● positive and creative ● a poster, a short video or … ● hand in your work before June 30th 注意事项：（1）必须包含所有提示信息，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数； （2）意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范； （3）请勿在文中使用真实的姓名、校名和地名。 Dear schoolmates, The school English club is going to hold an activity—China In My Eyes. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】例文 Dear schoolmates, The school English club is going to hold an activity—China In My Eyes.

How Co-op Works Co-op is a structured program for students to gain professional experience by alternating (交替) between work and study terms. Students who complete the required 3 work terms will graduate with a co-op recognition on their transcript (成绩单). Length & Number of Work Terms Students in co-op complete 3 work terms throughout their degrees, with each work term being 4 months long. As a result, students typically complete their degrees in 4.5-5 years. While it may take you longer to complete your degree, you will graduate with 12 months of paid work experience to kick start your career! Typical Work / Study Schedule Use the following as a guide to determine a schedule based on your courses and other UBC plans: YEAR FALL (SEP-DEC) WINTER (JAN-APR) SUMMER (MAY-AUG) 1st Study Study Break 2nd ● Study & Apply to Co-op ● Pre-employment training ● Study ● Pre-employment training Co-op Term 1 3rd Co-op Term 2 Study Co-op Term 3 4th Study Co-op Term 4(Optional) Study 5th Study Study Required Pre-Employment Training If you are admitted to the program, you will be required to participate in specialized training for co-op students.

Wang Wei: Yeah, but…I can’t stop thinking about the Chinese things here. Like that jade cabbage from the Palace Museum. It’s beautiful, but it feels wrong to see it so far from home. Li Ming: I know what you mean. When I saw the Buddhist wall paintings which were taken away from Dunhuang during wars, I felt proud of our culture, but also…angry. Wang Wei: Exactly! Those bronze pieces from the Qing Dynasty are important relics. They belong in Chinese museums, not behind foreign glass. It’s like part of our history is locked away. Li Ming: (sighs) What can we do about it? We’re just students. Wang Wei: We’re not “just” students! My uncles work as conservators in a museum. They say more countries are giving back artifacts now. Maybe we can study history or international laws to help! Li Ming: Or use modern contrivances! Like 3D scanning to share our culture without moving the real things. I want to learn coding for that. Wang Wei: Great idea! For now, let’s take more photographs. After we get back from London, we can give a presentation (展示) to show our class how amazing our art is…even here! 29. Where does this dialog probably take place? A. In the Indian Museum. B. In the British Museum. C. In Dunhuang Museum. D. In the Palace Museum. 30. Which of the following is NOT from China? A. The Rosetta Stone. B. The jade cabbage. C. The bronze pieces. D. The Buddhist wall paintings. 31. Which word in the dialog has the closest meaning to the underlined word “artifacts”? A. Relics. B. Contrivances. C. Conservators. D. Photographs. 32. What is the best title for their presentation? A. Hard Trip Abroad: From Anger to Danger B. Chinese Treasures Abroad: Our Pride and Pain C. World Art Collection: From India to China D. Chinese Art Protections: With 3D and Coding C Climate change, including extreme heat and frequent heat waves, is already known to put pressure on us in many ways—threatening ecosystems, reducing food production, and harming public health. Now, new research points to a possibly lifelong setback (障碍) for children who are suffering from extreme heat. In the first few years of life, children develop key physical, cognitive (认知的) and social skills that can shape (塑造) the rest of their lives. Meeting these basic developmental milestones (里程碑) at the early time—including recognizing letters (字母) or words and playing independently—can influence later life achievements, from mental health to economic success. “Delays in developing these skills set kids down a developmental path that can affect not just personal well-being, but society as a whole,” says Cuarta, a researcher at New York University. To see if there are connections between extreme heat and the development of these skills, Cuarta and his team studied data from 19,600 children surveyed by UNICEF in six countries. The team used the Early Childhood Development Index, which follows milestones in four areas: reading and number-related skills (cognitive skills), social-emotional development (social skills), ways of learning (learning skills) and physical development (physical skills). The Index tested children’s ability to name letters, read simple words and recognize the numbers 1 through 10, among other skills. In Cuarta’s study, researchers found that compared to children living in areas with cooler conditions, children who experienced higher temperatures above 30℃ were less likely to meet basic developmental milestones, particularly for reading and number-related skills. Learning loss may happen because heat’s effects on the brain can produce slower reaction times and an inability to focus. Heat can mess with (扰乱) children’s sleep, leading to cognitive disorder and learning difficulties in early childhood. With temperature rising globally, these delays could continue through school years and beyond, widening gaps in education and opportunity. “There is an urgent need to find out the exact ways in which heat is affecting development,” suggests Cuarta. “Gaining a better understanding of who is being affected and how it affects them will allow us to develop adaptation strategies (适应策略) to help them in the future.” 33. How does the author present the pressure caused by climate change? A. By quoting an expert. B. By raising a suggestion. C. By giving examples. D. By making comparisons. 34. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about? A. The influence of painful childhood. B. The importance of early development. C. The science behind the heat’s damage. D. The explanation of cognitive skills. 35. What can be inferred from Cuarta’s study? A. Heat stress can promote kids’ sleep quality. B. Heat’s effects were greater on mental health. C. Temperature can determine kids’ personality. D. Extreme heat may harm reading and number-related skills. 36. What is Cuarta’s suggestion about? A. The addition of control groups. B. The inclusion of more volunteers. C. Possible direction of future studies. D. Wide promotion of the findings. D Hilary Smith belonged to a good family. But by the age of twenty, he had spent all the money the good old family had. He then had some trouble with the bank and was put in prison. He escaped from the prison and ran to Australia at once. Hilary did not like Australia, and Australia did not like Hilary. What he could do seemed to be one of two things: die or work. Then he remembered that he was not alone in the world. He had an aunt. She was his father’s only sister, but his father used to say she brought no glory (荣耀) to the family. Hilary, of course, tried to discover what she had done. It seemed that she had failed to marry a nobleman. Instead, she had chosen a husband who was connected with “trade”. Of course, as soon as she became “Mrs. Parks”, her brother considered her dead. Later on, Mr. Parks died and left her a lot of money. But that did not bring her back to life in her brother’s opinion. Hilary discovered his aunt’s address. Luckily she remained faithful and loyal to him even after she fell ill. So Hilary’s star shone again, and soon he moved into her house and lived as comfortably as a sailor who had just reached harbor. He had only about a six-pence in his pocket. One thing was soon clear: his aunt was seriously ill, and nothing could cure her illness. Hilary was very worried. Fate had found a home for him, and was now going to throw him out of it. There was only one thing that could save him: her will (遗嘱). “Will? ”she said, “yes, I have made one. That was when I was a girl and had not much money. I left all my money to some religious people. ” “Didn’t you make another will when you were married? ”Hilary asked. His aunt shook her head. “No, ” she said in a low voice. “There was no need. When I finally had a lot of money I found I had no relations. ” On the next day he went to the public library and examined a book of law. It told him what he already believed. When a woman is married, an earlier will loses its value. A new will must be made. If no new will is made, the money goes to the nearest relation. Hilary knew that he was his aunt’s only relation. His future was bright. After a few months had passed, Hilary’s problems became serious. He badly needed money. He had expensive tastes, and owed a lot of money to shopkeepers. They believed in him because his aunt was rich, but the debt was terrible. Unluckily his aunt did not want to discuss money matters at all. In the end they had a quarrel about the small amount of ten pounds. Hilary was not very angry. He began to wonder about a new problem. Was it kind to want his aunt to live any longer? Was it not better for her to die now? While he was considering what to do, his aunt told him that she was going to send for her lawyer. So she was going to make a new will, Hilary thought. She might leave all her money to someone else. Soon he reached a clear decision. He must do a great kindness to the poor old woman. One night when the old servant who had been nursing his aunt went off, he doubled the amount of some medicine. The total amount was too great and it could just put her to sleep forever. “Thank you, ”his aunt took the glass from his hand with a grateful look. “I want, more than anything, to sleep, and never to wake up again. Is that what you wish, Hilary? Don’t blame (责怪) me if I have some doubts about what you intended to do. Sick people get these ideas, you know. One thing I ought to explain to you. Mr. Parks never married me. He already had a wife and couldn’t marry again. That made your foolish father very angry with me…Well, if I am alive tomorrow I shall make another will in your favor (赞成). If I die tonight, you’ll get nothing…. No, Hilary, don’t try to take the glass away. If you do that, I shall know, and I don’t want to know. Goodnight, Hilary. ” Then, very carefully, she raised the glass to her mouth and drank. 37. From the story, we learn that Hilary’s aunt was ________. A. careless about money B. rude to her nephew C. not easy to get along with D. kind-hearted and wise 38. Why did Hilary’s father consider his aunt dead? A. Because he thought she was a shame to the family. B. Because she broke away from the family for a better life. C. Because they lost touch with each other after her marriage. D. Because she married a businessman with a wife against his will. 39. The underlined sentence suggests that Hilary Smith ________. A. decided to call in a lawyer for his aunt B. made a decision to put his aunt's life to an end C. made up his mind to take good care of his aunt D. would help his aunt to donate money to religious people 40. Which detail from the story is the climax (高潮) of the story? A. Hilary succeeded in escaping from the prison. B. Hilary quarreled with his aunt about ten pounds. C. Hilary’s aunt drank the medicine her nephew prepared for her. D. Hilary’s aunt made a will to leave all her money to someone else. 第II卷 非选择题（共60分） 五、填空（共15小题；每小题1分，满分20分） （A） 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词，使短文意思完整正确，并将答案填写在答卷纸的相应位置上。 Chinese mortise and tenon (榫卯) is a wonderful traditional skill.

You might be thinking that these shows offer a totally real portrayal (描绘) of these animals—an objective window into their lives as they hunt, rest and raise their young. ____56____ While the images we see are filmed on location, many of the sounds are recorded in a sound studio and added to the programs later by human “Foley artists (拟音师)”. ____57____Usually, documentary filmmakers can film their subjects from a great distance, but they usually can’t get close enough to capture clear sounds without disturbing the animals. ____58____ There will probably be background noises such as crew members chatting or walking around if sounds are recorded on location. In other cases, the animals might make sounds of a frequency (频率) or volume (音量) that most microphones simply can’t capture clearly. “Foley artists” will use a variety of tools to simulate (模拟) the sounds made by animals. And most of them will create the close—up sounds of animals chewing or yawning with their own mouths. These sounds are created as the artist watches the videos, making sure they perfectly match the actions they’re paired with. ____59____ Animal cries—which are far too complex to be simulated (模仿)—will have to be taken from library recordings. Watching “Foley artists” at work on wildlife projects gives me a thrill like the one we get when we see how a magic trick is done. ____60____ Sounds have the ability to affect how we understand a given species.

This is an unavoidable result of modern wildlife filmmaking. 六、阅读填空（共20小题；每小题1分，满分20分） （A） 根据短文内容，在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词，每空一词。 Schools play an important role in our lives, as we spend much of our time there. Why do we go to school? Some believe that we go to gain knowledge, while others think that socializing (社交) is a necessary part of school life. We go to school mainly to get qualification (学历) and learn facts, as the role of school is to develop us into adults and prepare us for working life, so its purpose becomes clear: gaining knowledge. Certificates (证书) of education level are required for further study and jobs. Learning subjects well helps us pass entrance exams, which provides choices for our paths to the future. It is also necessary for us to learn facts and develop an understanding of the world. For example, the knowledge of Physics and Chemistry can explain certain things in daily lives, which can help solve some problems. In Geography and History classes, we can learn about the way our environments are shaped over time. These allow teenagers to connect with the world and understand time and space that are beyond their reach. However, some people believe socializing like working in groups and making friends is more important. They can help improve interpersonal skills and cultural understanding, and are good for our mental health. These are the keys to our growth and prepare us for the future. At school, group work needs us to communicate and socialize with others. In this way, we can increase our ability to express ideas clearly, which makes it easy for others to understand us. Such skills cannot be developed from textbooks and are of great use in workplaces. It is also important for us to make friends at school. Research has shown that close friendships can help reduce stress, especially during teenage years. Making friends at school does not mean that we can’t learn facts well. Instead, the friendships can encourage us to study, so school should actively support students to develop healthy friendships. I think school is the place where students should gain knowledge and develop socializing skills as well. Topic * Why do we go to school? People don’t have the same view on this topic. Anyway, going to school is an important ____61____ of time in everyone’s life. Two ____62____ views Gaining knowledge * Getting qualification ·Further study and jobs ____63____ certificates. ·Entrance exams ____64____ students whether they learn the subjects well. ·Students future paths somewhat depend on entrance exams. * Learning facts ·We can solve daily problems ____65____ Physics and Chemistry knowledge. ·We can understand ____66____ the environments are shaped by learning Geography and History.

One clear difference between Chinese culture and Western culture lies in communication styles. While Western culture often pays a____72____ to clear words, Chinese communication is more indirect and subtle. For example, in the West, it’s common to express one’s opinion openly and directly, while in China, it’s more l____73____ for people to use suggestions to pass their thoughts, out of respect and to keep the understanding in relationships. Western culture is known for its focus on individualism (个人主义), where personal a____74____ and independence are h____75____ valued. For example, moving out of one’s parents’ home soon after being 18 years old is common in the West. I____76____, Chinese culture is more collectivistic (集体主义的), prioritizing the happiness of the family or group over individual needs. This could be seen in the strong ties between family members and the i____77____ of teamwork.

Nowadays, AI-powered forecasting models are being developed to make weather predictions faster and more accurate (精准的). AI can collect and process more kinds of information than before. In the past, forecasts mainly depended on temperature, wind, and air pressure. Now, AI models can provide information, including city maps, population data, and even electricity usage records. For example, the Hong Kong Observatory uses computer vision, an AI method, to study radar pictures of rain. This helps scientists know the speed and direction of rain clouds. However, some weather events are still hard to forecast. Traditional models work well for large systems, such as areas of high or low pressure. But small, local events, like sudden rainstorms or tornadoes, are harder to predict. Reducing the grid (网格) size of a weather model helps. But the large amount of processing makes it impossible to use traditional methods. Rain predictions near the equator are often less accurate than in other places. One reason is that the difference in tropical rainfall systems affects the predictions. Another reason is that observation systems are not equally good worldwide. At present, there are many ways to improve forecasts. With AI, weather forecasting is becoming faster, cheaper, and more accurate. For example, Nvidia’s CorrDiff model uses AI to produce more detailed forecasts quickly with less energy. Even the Hong Kong Observatory can make rain forecasts only a few hours ahead. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 八、书面表达（满分15分） 82. 假定你是李华，你校英语俱乐部正在举办主题为“China In My Eyes”的作品征集活动。请你结合以下提示，用英语写一份倡议书，号召同学们积极参加。词数100左右。 ★ Purpose and significance (意义): ● better understand Chinese culture ● improve English ● … ★ Requirements (要求) for works: ● positive and creative ● a poster, a short video or … ● hand in your work before June 30th 注意事项：（1）必须包含所有提示信息，可适当发挥，开头已给出，不计入总词数； （2）意思清楚，表达通顺，行文连贯，书写规范； （3）请勿在文中使用真实的姓名、校名和地名。 Dear schoolmates, The school English club is going to hold an activity—China In My Eyes. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
